(hx) 07:02 PM CEST - May,20 2026 - Post a comment
Microsoft Issues Urgent Fix for BitLocker "YellowKey" BypassMicrosoft has released manual steps to block a serious zero-day flaw (CVE-2026-45585) in Windows BitLocker that lets attackers with physical access bypass encryption using a USB stick and the Windows Recovery Environment.

The YellowKey exploit, publicly shared on GitHub, works on Windows 11, Server 2022, and Server 2025 by injecting code that unlocks drives without a PIN or recovery key.

No automatic patch exists yet, so admins must follow Microsoft's six-step guide to update the WinRE image and switch to TPM+PIN protection.

Alibaba's New Zhenwu M890 AI Chip Claims 3x NVIDIA H20 Performance - tech
(hx) 05:45 PM CEST - May,20 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Alibaba has unveiled its latest Zhenwu M890 AI chip, built to directly challenge NVIDIA’s Hopper series in the global AI race.

The chip is already shipping in volume to hundreds of customers across China as US export curbs push local tech firms toward homegrown solutions. Alibaba also shared an ambitious roadmap through 2028, promising further big performance jumps with each new generation.
ASUS Fake Copper Scandal Hits Premium ROG Board - tech
(hx) 05:42 PM CEST - May,20 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
ASUS is facing criticism for using copper-colored aluminum heatsinks on its new ROG Crosshair 2006 anniversary motherboard instead of real copper.

The board aims to recreate the retro look of the 2006 original with its flashy orange-toned cooling fins, but tech site FanlessTech revealed they're just anodized aluminum.

Real copper offers better heat transfer, making this a letdown for a high-end AMD X870E board that carries a premium price tag.

As copper prices rise, this cost-cutting move may signal a wider industry shift away from the material.
