In a significant development for enthusiasts and developers alike, Raspberry Pi has launched the AI Camera, created in collaboration with Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation. This new module leverages the Sony IMX500 image sensor, which is equipped with an integrated AI accelerator, enabling on-device AI-based image processing directly on any Raspberry Pi without the need for additional processing hardware. The IMX500 sensor supports high-quality 12MP images and offers two distinct modes for image capture: one that allows for a maximum resolution of 4056×3040 pixels at 10 frames per second (FPS), and another optimized for a resolution of 2028×1520 pixels at 30…

The launch of AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series desktop processors, while highly anticipated, resulted in a lackluster performance reception earlier this year. In response, AMD has been actively working to mitigate the damage, citing initial testing methodology flaws as a key contributor to the disappointing benchmarks and rolling out updates aimed at improving performance. In a recent announcement, AMD introduced an updated firmware for the X870 motherboards and Ryzen 600 chipsets, which promises to unlock a new 105-watt thermal design power (TDP) profile for the Ryzen 9600X and 9700X processors. Although this performance capability was technically available from the start, the…

According to Neowin, the popular ad-blocking extension uBlock Origin Lite has been removed from the Firefox add-on marketplace amid an escalating conflict between its developer, Raymond Hill, and Mozilla. The trouble began in early September when Mozilla flagged all versions of uBlock Origin Lite for alleged violations of Firefox policies. The accusations included claims of user data collection and privacy violations—issues that contradict the core values that attract users to Firefox in the first place. In defense of his add-on, Hill remarked that the concerns raised by Mozilla were unfounded and could be easily disproven by anyone with a basic…

In a notable development for augmented reality technology, Microsoft has discontinued production of the HoloLens 2, marking an end to its ambitions in this sector and perhaps signaling a retreat from the metaverse as well. According to a Microsoft spokesperson cited by UploadVR, the company will support the HoloLens 2 with security updates until the end of 2027, but all support will cease in 2028. This decision comes on the heels of Microsoft’s announcement that it will no longer support Windows Mixed Reality devices in the forthcoming Windows 11 2024 Update, which is currently being deployed. Microsoft has issued warnings…

AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames 2 (FMF2), the company’s latest AI-driven frame generation technology, has officially launched as part of Adrenalin version 24.9.1. Initially introduced in a beta release back in July, FMF2 is now fully operational and ready to enhance gaming experiences. According to AMD, FMF2 is designed to provide “AI-optimized for improved quality and smoothness,” which translates to lower frame generation latency and reduced overhead on integrated graphics. A key feature of FMF2 is its support for borderless full-screen mode, a significant benefit for gamers who multitask with multiple background applications. The technology is also compatible with games using…

If you’ve invested in a PCIe Gen 5 solid-state drive (SSD), you’re likely looking for the impressive speed that comes with it. However, some users with AMD X670E motherboards are facing a frustrating reality: their cutting-edge Gen 5 SSDs are performing at shockingly low speeds. Reports from users of MSI and Asus motherboards utilizing the X670E chipset reveal that these motherboards may be limiting Gen 5 drives to PCIe Gen 1 speeds. Instead of enjoying the anticipated read and write speeds exceeding 10GB/s, some users are stuck with speeds as slow as 1GB/s on an x4 lane. This performance dip…

Scammers are relentless in their quest to reach as many potential victims as possible, leading to billions of scam phone calls each year. However, the threat extends far beyond just phone calls; fraudulent websites are also a significant concern. A recent investigation by Malwarebytes has uncovered a concerning trend involving fake Disney+ websites that rank high in Google search results. This makes them particularly dangerous for users who search for Disney+ instead of directly typing in the official URL. These counterfeit sites mimic legitimate Disney+ branding and present misleading links that may resemble the actual Disney+ website. Once users click…

In the meantime, there are temporary solutions available for users who need to continue working in Word. Update: Microsoft has implemented a fix for…

A “Hackintosh” refers to a custom-built PC configured to run Apple’s macOS (or OS X), a practice that thrived when Apple utilized Intel processors in their devices. As Apple transitioned to its proprietary Arm architecture, the enthusiasm for Hackintosh setups has waned. However, one determined individual is reviving this trend by successfully running the latest macOS Sequoia build on a Steam Deck, a device primarily designed for gaming. This leads to the intriguing question: why would someone go through the extensive effort to boot an operating system that’s decidedly not optimized for gaming on a device built specifically for that…
