Microsoft's "Windows K2" Aims to Crush SteamOS in Gaming Performance - tech
(hx) 11:06 PM CEST - Apr,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Microsoft is launching the Windows K2 initiative to deliver major gaming upgrades for Windows 11, directly benchmarking against SteamOS for superior performance. The project focuses on debloating the OS to slash idle memory usage and stripping out unnecessary AI features that clutter the experience. Early community buzz, sparked by a popular Counter-Strike 2 news account, shows excitement mixed with skepticism as some players report stronger results on Linux distros. If successful, K2 could close the gap with console-like efficiency on PC. This marks a significant shift as Microsoft intensifies efforts to retain gamers on its platform.
Nvidia Exec Admits AI Costs More Than Humans - briefly
(hx) 10:38 PM CEST - Apr,29 2026 - Post a comment
Nvidia VP of Applied Deep Learning Bryan Catanzaro told Axios that for his team, "the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees," directly contradicting the widespread corporate claim that AI delivers major cost savings.

Over 92,000 tech workers have been laid off in 2026 so far as companies cite AI-driven efficiencies, per Layoffs.fyi tracking.

A 2024 MIT CSAIL study found AI automation is economically viable in only 23% of jobs, with humans remaining cheaper in the other 77%.

Uber burned through its full 2026 AI budget in just four months due to heavy use of tools like Claude Code, prompting its CTO to say the company is "back to the drawing board."

Morgan Stanley projects $740 billion in Big Tech AI capex this year, while McKinsey forecasts $5.2 trillion in related data-center spending by 2030; Yale Budget Lab reports no widespread evidence yet of AI displacing jobs or boosting productivity at scale.

Minecraft Players Lured by Fake 'Slinky' Cheat Hit by Sophisticated LofyStealer Malware - tech
(hx) 02:24 PM CEST - Apr,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Minecraft gamers are being targeted by the LofyStealer infostealer, which disguises itself as a popular game cheat tool called “Slinky” using the official Minecraft icon to trick users into downloading it. The malware employs a two-stage attack with a Node.js loader and in-memory injection into major browsers like Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera GX, and Firefox to silently steal cookies, passwords, payment details, session tokens, and IBANs. Linked to the Brazilian LofyGang, it operates as Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) and uses advanced techniques to bypass security tools. Users should avoid unofficial Minecraft mods or cheats and enable multi-factor authentication for protection.

PS5 Hack Unlocks Full Linux, Turns Console into a PC - briefly
(hx) 10:34 AM CEST - Apr,29 2026 - Post a comment
Hackers have released ps5-linux, a groundbreaking project that boots full Ubuntu 26.04 on PS5 Phat consoles running firmware 3.xx or 4.xx. The exploit leverages a hypervisor vulnerability and custom bootloader to transform the gaming console into a versatile PC capable of running Steam, emulators, and standard desktop apps. It delivers full hardware support including 8 CPU cores at 3.5 GHz, AMD GPU at 2.23 GHz for 4K60 output, M.2 SSD storage, and fan control. While networking needs USB adapters and features like dual-boot are still missing, the project marks a major milestone for PS5 homebrew.
Fake Pragmata Cartridge Damages Switch 2 in Amazon Warehouse Scam - console
(hx) 08:35 AM CEST - Apr,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
A buyer snagged a discounted "Like New" copy of Capcom's Pragmata for Nintendo Switch 2 via Amazon Warehouse Deals, only to discover it was a sophisticated fake. The empty plastic shell, complete with realistic Capcom and ESRB labeling but no internal chip or contacts, got stuck in the console and bent or broke the cartridge reader pins.

This left the Switch 2 unable to read any games, turning a bargain into costly repair territory. The incident highlights a growing return scam where scammers strip real cartridges of components before shipping back fakes to retailers. Buyers should inspect used Switch 2 carts for proper weight, no rattling, correct back markings, and a secure fit—and test them immediately if possible.

GameStop Slams Sony's - briefly

GameStop has publicly called out Sony's new policy requiring PS4 and PS5 digital game owners to connect online every 30 days for license verification on recent purchases. The retailer highlighted how this restricts true ownership, contrasting it with physical games that work offline anytime. In an accompanying ad featuring a PS5 disc drive console labeled "NO LIMITS," GameStop is promoting pre-owned and physical titles as a reliable alternative for unrestricted play, sharing, and trading.
WhatsApp Builds Its Own Encrypted Cloud Backups - tech

WhatsApp is testing an independent cloud backup system that lets users store chat histories directly on its servers, reducing dependence on Google Drive and iCloud. The new service will offer a free 2 GB tier and a low-cost 50 GB premium plan for about $0.99. Backups on WhatsApp’s platform will enforce mandatory end-to-end encryption, with users securing data via passkeys, passwords, or 64-digit keys. This addresses storage limits from media-heavy chats while keeping data inaccessible even to WhatsApp itself. The feature is in active testing and will roll out first to beta users.

YouTube Raises US Premium Prices Amid Privacy Concerns - briefly
(hx) 03:59 PM CEST - Apr,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
YouTube has increased its subscription prices in the US for the first time in three years, with the individual Premium plan rising from $13.99 to $15.99 per month ($192/year) and the family plan (up to six accounts) jumping from $22.99 to $26.99 per month ($323/year). The standalone YouTube Music Premium subscription also rose from $10.99 to $11.99 per month ($144/year), with changes taking effect in the next billing cycle starting June 2026.
Critics highlight that the platform continues extensive user tracking—logging every video watched, search, pause, and rewind—to build profiles sold to advertisers, positioning users as the product rather than customers.

In response, an open-source alternative called Invidious (github.com/iv-org/invidious) offers ad-free YouTube access with 18,900+ GitHub stars, AGPL-3.0 licensing, 269 contributors, 2,100+ forks, and 33 releases since 2018. It provides no ads, no Google account or tracking, anonymous subscriptions, SponsorBlock integration, background/audio-only playback, direct downloads, RSS feeds, Reddit comments, self-hosting options, and no JavaScript requirement.

Despite a June 9, 2023 cease-and-desist letter from YouTube demanding shutdown within seven days, the community-driven project remains active with a commit just 14 hours ago.
Valve's New Steam Controller Locks Out Xbox Game Pass on PC - briefly
(hx) 03:26 PM CEST - Apr,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Valve's newly released Steam Controller, a $99.99 device with Steam Deck-style trackpads, gyro controls, and Hall-effect analog sticks set to launch May 4, 2026, lacks native Windows drivers outside the Steam app. As a result, it offers no support for PC Game Pass titles launched through the Xbox app on Windows 11, where Microsoft's UWP restrictions prevent Steam from detecting or controlling the games. This mirrors the original Steam Controller's limitations from over a decade ago, which the open-source GlosSI tool resolved by emulating broader compatibility.

PCMag's review confirms the incompatibility is due to Xbox app lockdowns rather than a Valve oversight, forcing users to buy full Steam versions of games like Forza Horizon 6 for full controller features. Basic XInput mode works for standard buttons in limited scenarios, but advanced Steam Input functions remain unavailable outside Steam. The community expects a quick GlosSI update or workarounds like UWPHook, with many blaming Microsoft’s ecosystem more than Valve.

Sony's Latest Moves Fuel Xbox Advantage Debate - console
(hx) 12:17 AM CEST - Apr,28 2026 - Post a comment
Sony has raised PS5 hardware prices for the third time while introducing a new 30-day online license check for recently purchased digital games on PS4 and PS5. Xbox, by contrast, recently cut Game Pass Ultimate pricing, continues adding first-party titles quickly, offers frequent free updates, cloud gaming, and Play Anywhere cross-buy support.

The policy shift has gamers comparing the two ecosystems, with many highlighting Xbox's consumer-friendly approach amid Sony's tightening restrictions. This comes as visual comparisons of Series X and PS5 performance continue circulating online.
PLAYSTATION:
-Raises the price of the PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal for the third time.
-Implements a DRM without warning anyone that leaves your games completely unusable after 30 days without an internet connection

XBOX:
-Drops the price of GAMEPASS by nearly 10 euros, just like that, in these tough times
-Keeps adding day-one games to the service, even though COD comes later but still gets included after 1 year.
-Updates its consoles every 15 days with new features for free
-Cloud gaming on mobile, PC, and even TV
-Games you can play on console and PC with a single purchase (Play Anywhere)
-And now it’s even considering cheaper, more flexible models to attract more players
Valve Revives Steam Controller After 10+ Years - Is It Worth $100? - briefly
(hx) 12:02 AM CEST - Apr,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Valve has launched its long-awaited new Steam Controller, featuring upgraded haptic trackpads, advanced TMR joysticks, impressive battery life, and a clever wireless charging puck that doubles as a dongle.

Linus Tech Tips praised the trackpads for bridging controller and desktop gaming, excellent gyro controls, and repairability support via iFixit, though they noted the build feels cheaper than first-party options and ergonomics may not suit everyone.

The $100 price positions it as a premium option against Xbox, DualSense, and budget rivals, with strong customization via Steam Input.

PlayStation's New DRM Forces Monthly Online Check-Ins for Digital Games - console
(hx) 11:00 PM CEST - Apr,27 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Sony has introduced a controversial new DRM policy requiring PlayStation consoles to connect online at least once every 30 days for digital games purchased after the March 2026 update, or the license will expire and block gameplay. PlayStation support confirmed the requirement is intentional and cannot be bypassed by setting a console as primary. The policy does not apply to previously owned games. It has sparked widespread backlash, with many users drawing parallels to Microsoft's failed 2013 Xbox DRM plans and urging others to buy physical copies instead. Opinions remain divided between those who see it as harmless for always-online users and others concerned about offline access and digital ownership.

One Developer Wages War on Google's Ad Empire: uBlock Origin Thrives Despite Chrome Crackdown - tech
(hx) 07:02 PM CEST - Apr,27 2026 - Post a comment / read (2)
A lone open-source developer named Raymond Hill is defying Google's trillion-dollar advertising machine by single-handedly maintaining uBlock Origin, the world's most popular ad blocker with over 63,000 GitHub stars. On July 24, 2025, Google fully disabled support for Manifest V2 extensions in Chrome, effectively killing the full version of uBlock Origin on its dominant browser under the guise of "security improvements"—a move widely criticized as protecting ad revenue.

Hill refused all donation attempts and kept the project alive, releasing version 1.70.0 on March 11, 2026, which remains fully functional and auto-updating on Firefox, Edge, Brave, and Opera.

The extension is 100% open-source under GPL-3.0 and available directly from GitHub for manual installation on Chromium-based browsers, where it no longer auto-updates in Chrome.

This David-vs.-Goliath saga highlights ongoing tensions between big tech's ad-driven model and user privacy tools, with many users switching to Firefox or Brave as a result.

A 32-core/64-thread Russian-Chinese Irtysh C632 processor based on LoongArch architecture has successfully run The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on Linux. Paired with a Radeon RX 9060 XT GPU, the CPU achieved 22-32 FPS on Ultra settings and 25-38 FPS on Low, as demonstrated at ExpoElectronica 2026.
The system relies on Steam, Proton, Wine, and Box64 binary translation to emulate x86 games, with performance constrained mainly by translation overhead rather than raw hardware power. The Irtysh lineup highlights ongoing Sino-Russian efforts to develop indigenous server and computing alternatives to Western chip designs.

CIH 'Chernobyl' Virus Turns 27: The BIOS-Killer That Bricked Millions - tech
(hx) 07:17 PM CEST - Apr,26 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
On April 26, 1999, the CIH virus—also known as Chernobyl—activated its destructive payload, infecting around 60 million Windows 9x PCs worldwide and causing an estimated $40 million in damage. Created by Taiwanese student Chen Ing-hau, the tiny 1KB malware stood out by overwriting motherboard BIOS firmware with junk data while wiping hard drives, permanently bricking hundreds of thousands of computers. Unlike today's malware focused on data theft or ransomware, CIH targeted hardware at the lowest level, rendering machines unbootable without costly repairs. The attack highlighted early vulnerabilities in consumer PC firmware before UEFI and secure boot protections emerged. Twenty-seven years later, it remains a stark reminder of how a single clever virus once brought chaos to the pre-internet boom era.
