Many consider cars to be the most exciting thing out there. Those adrenaline-pumping feats of engineering, harmonizing cutting-edge hardware and software to push the boundaries of physics. A lot of people, though, are equally enthusiastic about PCs and how they contribute to the world of racing. After all, a car is technically just a computer on wheels, so why not combine the two to birth something truly unique that honors both cultures?

That's exactly what Nvidia did,

Computer scientists led by a team from the University of Bath have revealed an innovation they dub HydroHaptics . They say the new technology enables “expressive, two-way communication,” between the user and a range of devices. The soft malleable HydroHaptic sensor is a natural fit for a deformable computer mouse , gaming, or wearables, reckon the development team. Moreover, intuitive input devices using this tech can offer tactile feedback without impacting their soft, flexible characteristics.

U.S. datacenters are increasingly relying on coal-fired electricity as expanding AI infrastructure drives up power needs and makes natural gas less affordable, reports The Register . However, in states with nuclear power plants, coal, slate, and oil are used to smooth peaks and lows of power, not to address the needs of prominent tech giants. Let us try to figure it out.

A report from Jefferies shows coal generation rising nearly 20% and there are projections that it

Even though SSDs have taken over as the primary choice for storage in desktop and mobile devices, hard drives are still the most sensible option when it comes to mass storage. From a value standpoint, you can store terabytes upon terabytes without breaking the bank and that's exactly the kind of deal we've hunted down for you today. Western Digital is putting its WD Gold 14 TB Enterprise-Class HDD on clearance for just $240 , a generous

On October 9, Cambridge University Library opened its doors to anyone with an old floppy disk and a question: What’s on here? The public “Copy that Floppy” session marked the launch of Future Nostalgia, a year-long project dedicated to rescuing data from obsolete magnetic media before time and oxide decay make it impossible.

The idea of a modern conservation lab helping people read their ancient WordPerfect documents or lost BASIC code might seem quaint or cute, but the initiative is

A high-profile hacking group called Crimson Collective claimed that it had successfully hacked Nintendo, which is notorious for being litigious and overprotective of its intellectual property. Cybersecurity intelligence firm Hackmanac shared a screenshot on X that allegedly showed proof of the attack, with folders that seemingly stored Nintendo data, including production assets, developer files, and backups. However, the Japanese gaming giant is yet to make a statement about this attack, so we’re unsure if this is real or

Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be one of the biggest AAA game launches this year, but the game’s opening day is far from perfect. Users who purchased the title on the EA App encountered a glitch, with the game indicating that both multiplayer and the single-player campaign are still to be installed, even though both are already present on the user’s PC, as reported by ComputerBase . It took three hours after the game dropped for EA to acknowledge the error,

Two newly disclosed vulnerabilities in 7-Zip could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening a malicious ZIP archive. The issues, reported October 7 by Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative (ZDI), affect multiple builds of the popular open-source compression tool and were quietly fixed in July.

Tracked as CVE-2025-11001 and CVE-2025-11002, the flaws stem
