Several Republicans have criticized President Donald Trump’s recent corporate deals, with the 10% equity stake in Intel being the latest in a series of moves that Washington has made to acquire ownership or generate revenue from private companies. According to The Hill , several conservative senators and even former staffers from the first Trump administration are calling these moves a step towards socialism.
“If I was [sic] speaking to the president, I’d encourage him: It’s
Nvidia and its partners began shipping and deploying systems based on the company's Blackwell Ultra architecture a little while ago, namely the GB300 (with Grace CPUs) and B300 (with x86 CPUs). Now, at the Hot Chips 2025 conference, the company revealed some additional information about both the underlying architecture and the 'Blackwell Ultra ' implementation of it.
In general, Nvidia's Blackwell-based B100/
Today's deal is on a very unique-looking keyboard from Hyte that I remember us reviewing a while back. Using a compact tenkeyless (TKL) layout, the Hyte Keeb TKL combines a lot of enthusiast-grade construction elements with bright, colorful lighting and a modern shape and design that's unique. It certainly might not be for everyone's taste, but if you're looking for something a little different to brighten up your setup and still want a good typing
China’s AI industry is quietly turning to refurbished and second-hand Nvidia GPUs after fresh curbs on the company’s H20 accelerator left customers scrambling for alternatives. The H20, a cut-down Hopper-based GPU designed specifically to comply with U.S. export restrictions, was meant to keep Nvidia in the Chinese market. But the chip has been effectively sidelined following the resumption of H20 exports in July, after Chinese regulators raised data security concerns
We've come across our fair share of 3D printers here at Tom's Hardware . We've even covered a handful of clever Lego-based projects. This is the first time, however, we've seen the two meld together so harmoniously. In a fascinating display of intellectual finesse, a maker who goes by Zealousideal-Army333 over at Reddit has created a working 3D printer using Lego bricks.

Sandisk has announced the release of the WD Blue SN5100, the successor to the WD Blue SN5000 , which was introduced last year. The newest SN5100 is still a PCIe 4.0 drive, but it incorporates updated hardware that Sandisk says provides performance enhancements of up to 30% compared to its predecessor.
The recipe for the SN5100 closely resembles that of the previous SN5000. Sandisk
There have been whispers about dropping floppy disk driver support in Linux, but on Monday, Andy Shevchenko posted some new patches to clean up supporting code for this pocketable magnetic storage medium from the (g)olden days of computing.
This update comes nearly three years after the last floppy update of any substance, according to Phoronix . Yes, it notes that this old code is effectively orphaned and/or unmaintained. However, floppy support persists in Linux, and maintenance like this consolidates previous separate
Bambu Lab dropped a bombshell announcement just one hour after the release of its newest 3D printer, the H2S . The company revealed the H2C, a tool changer-like system that it says will hit the shelves before Christmas.
The H2C promises to tackle the problem that plagues every Bambu Lab 3D printer with an AMS: printer poop. This “poop” is the waste purged from the nozzle as it is cleaned between color changes. Most color
ESET today announced the discovery of "the first known AI-powered ransomware." The ransomware in question has been dubbed PromptLock, presumably because seemingly everything related to generative AI has to be prefixed with "prompt."
ESET said that this malware uses an open-weight large language model developed by OpenAI to generate scripts that can perform a variety of functions on Windows, macOS, and Linux systems while confounding defensive tools by exhibiting slightly different behavior each time.
