Some images demonstrating one of the rarest x86 CPUs still running have been shared online. We thank CPU collector and silicon lover, konkretor, for this particular retro tech flashback. However, it is probably fair to say that the highlighted Rise mP6 266 wins more points for obscurity than nostalgia. Though already a keen PC builder and tinkerer in 1998, I don’t recall seeing, hearing, or reading anything about this Super Socket 7 and MMX instruction

People have been hiding text in plain sight for millennia. The goal used to be private communication by way of invisible ink that only appeared under specific circumstances. Now it seems to be tricking artificially intelligent chatbots into assisting with phishing attempts via basic formatting options.

Mozilla's 0-Day Investigative Network (0din) revealed on July 10 that Google Gemini for Workspace—or whichever combination of proper nouns Google is using to refer to the AI features bundled with its professional services this week
