Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut thermal paste (on Amazon - https://geni.us/JMVNtOE ) & Hydronaut for water cooling (Amazon - https://geni.us/Fsray ) In this video, we deep clean and repair a gaming PC that went through a house fire. The question is whether or not it survived, and we're going to do our best to recover it and bring it back to a pristine state. This gaming PC is from a viewer, and regardless of whether or not we can recover it for him, we're going to make sure he at least has a gaming PC to take his mind off the difficult times. This is beyond the usual "deep clean" of dust in coolers and GPUs -- we're cleaning soot, ash, rust, and more from this computer.

This is bad news, because Samsung has the best SSDs (albeit expensive) in terms of write and read speed, great LPDDR cache, great SLC cache.

Audi A8/ S8 and Audi Q8 e-tron S can be equipped with Audi Matrix LED - Audi Digital Matrix Light. By default, the light switch is set to Automatic and the high beams are on every time when it is possible. The system is switched on outside of urban areas (or - it depends on the country law - when there is no street lights) at speeds of 30 km/h (18.6 mph) and above. As soon as the camera on the windshield detects other vehicles or city limits, the controller switches off individual points of light or dims them in over a dozen stages, creating several possible light patterns. The Digital Matrix LED light masks out other vehicles while continuing to fully illuminate the zones between and adjacent to them. Digital Matrix LED headlights use DMD technology (digital micromirror device). Each headlight has approximately 1.3 million micromirrors that break down the light of a particularly powerful LED into tiny pixels. The lane and orientation lighting emits a carpet of light that illuminates the driver's own lane particularly brightly. Check real-life test and review of Audi A8 and Q8 e-tron Digital Matrix LED.

Everyone who uses a computer uses Windows at least sometimes. But how many Windows features are they using? There's more to the operating system than you might think, even if you've used it a lot!

In the last video from German GPU repair service a sudden spike of Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards was reported. There was nothing extraordinary about these cards that would explain why they were all failing after just a couple of days after purchase. This is why Kris made the first video to learn more from the community. After a short survey among affected customers KrisFix determined that it was likely not the type of workload that broke the cards, as every customer was using the card differently. However, what they had in common was the drivers. Each of the cards was using the same latest version available at the time. The long story short is that it was not the driver after all. As it turns out, the graphics cards that were sent over to KrisFix also had one other thing in common that was previously not mentioned. Many of these cards were sold by the same seller, with a strong suspicion that these cards were previously used for cryptomining.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra will be unveiled at the Unpacked event scheduled to take place on the 1st of February. Samsung is expected to keep the price the same for the Galaxy S23 Ultra even with some significant upgrades. We also have the camera sample of the Galaxy S23 Ultra that shows its camera prowess.

The i5-13500 is basically a i9-12900 with two deactivated P-cores and slightly lower clock speeds. It's even using the same chip (ADL-C0) as the 12th Gen i9 CPUs. It's not so much a "downgrade" in cache, as it's simply based on a last-gen Alder Lake chip, so it never got the "upgrade" to begin with.

The Last of Us episode 2, titled Infected, will be released on 22nd January at 2am GMT. The episode will also be available on Sky Atlantic and NOW in the UK, and will air on HBO in the US.

Yeah it's pretty handy when you have limited options!

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 will finally fix a huge design flaw of the Samsung foldable smartphone.

This video documents the behind-the-scenes of the EVGA GPU division. The company has exited manufacturing video cards, but for now, the crew remains at EVGA working on final projects and supporting customers. We were given the unique and privileged opportunity to tour EVGA's repair center, film processes previously secret, and show the teamwork that went into building EVGA. We were originally just going to do a tour of the repair center, but it wasn't until we had a reason -- the tragic loss of EVGA's last cards capable of world records -- that we realized the story underneath. This morphed from being a simple tour to being a deeper piece outlining the relationships of the people at EVGA, the teamwork that went in at every individual's level to make a good product, and the contributions made across all departments of the company. We learned first-hand how relatively few people made EVGA tick, and all because each is an expert in their field. We felt a great sense of responsibility to document how the team worked together, if only for their own future nostalgia, and we're happy you're along for the ride. We gave as many people the spotlight as we could for this one, from the OC team to the repair team. We spent 5-figures and a month working on this video, so please share and support if you can!

Imperva's cybersecurity specialists discovered a problem with how the roughly 2.5 billion users of Chrome and Chromium-based browsers interacted with file systems, more specifically, how browsers handle symlinks.

The vulnerability allows hackers to steal sensitive user files, such as login credentials and cryptocurrency wallet codes. The vulnerability is caused by a malfunction in the Chromium browser's symlink processing.

According to Imperva, symlinks (also known as symbolic links) are files that point from a web browser to other files, known as directories.

This allows Chromium to treat connected files or directories as if they belonged to the file address itself. The researchers found that the browser failed to check correctly to see if the symlink was referring to a location intended to be inaccessible, which means that if these files aren't handled properly, they potentially present vulnerabilities. A threat actor could construct a phony cryptocurrency wallet and a website that would ask users to obtain their recovery keys in order to launch an attack. A genuine symlink to a private file or folder on the user's computer would be contained in the downloaded file. It's possible that the file contains cloud provider login information or anything similar. Experts have found that the Chromium browser does not determine whether the address of the file that the symlink navigates to is allowed to be accessed. The worst case scenario is that the victim would be utterly unaware that their private information has been hacked.

This vulnerability has a tracking code of CVE-2022-3656. This has been fixed by Google in the Chrome 108 update.

The much-awaited live-action adaptation of Naughty Dog's legendary video game series, The Last of Us, is finally close to its official release. Created by Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin, the TV show will feature Pedro Pascal as Joel, and Bella Ramsey - the actress who won our hearts with her role in Game of Thrones as Lyanna Mormont - will play Ellie. Episode 1 of The Last of Us is scheduled to release worldwide on Sunday, January 15th, 2023 at 6 PM PT (Pacific Time). The TV show will be available for streaming exclusively on HBO Max, but the episode's release timing will vary depending on your region. Regardless, if you can't wait to experience Pedro Pascal's performance as Joel, follow this regional release schedule for Episode 1:

Pacific Timing: 6 PM PT (Sunday, January 15th)
Central Timing: 8 PM CT (Sunday, January 15th)
Eastern Timing: 9 PM ET (Sunday, January 15th)
British Timing: 2 AM GMT (Monday, January 16th)
Indian Timing: 7:30 AM IST (Monday, January 16th)
Australian Timing: 12 PM AEST (Monday, January 16th)


Unfortunately, HBO Max isn't available in many regions outside of the US, so international fans will have to watch the show on other platforms. Fans in the UK, for instance, can stream the episodes on Sky Atlantic and NOW streaming services. Indian fans, however, will get The Last of Us TV show on Disney+ Hotstar.

The showrunners confirmed that Season 1 of The Last of Us would run for a total of nine episodes. HBO will follow a weekly release schedule for the series, and the season will come to an end with the release of the final episode on March 12th, 2023.

Interestingly, the first episode, titled "When you're lost in the darkness," will feature a runtime of 85 minutes. Fans who've played the game know that the first episode will show Joel's origin, and we may even get to see Joel meeting Ellie in Episode 1 itself. So, it makes sense for the episode to flex a longer runtime than the rest of the episodes in the season.

A glimpse into the past of Xbox game development with the Xbox Alpha I development kit. The craziest part? You can build one yourself! (sort of) AND IT CAN EVEN PLAY GAMES (maybe). Oh, and we mistake CES 2001 for E3 2001, but really, who hasn't made that mistake before?

Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology's Cho Jae-weon is an urban and environmental engineering professor. He has cooked up an eco-friendly toilet. But not only that. Cho's loo is connected to a lab that uses poop to produce biogas and fertilizer.

South Korean professor Cho Jae-weon invented a toilet that turns poop into energy and pays people in digital currency.

A person defecates~ 500g/day converted into 50 liters of methane gas which generates 0.5 kWh.

Toilet users earn Ggool, a literal sh3t coin. pic.twitter.com/DCn3WteII5

� Brian Roemmele (@BrianRoemmele) August 17, 2022

The toilet uses a vacuum function to spirit away the poop into an underground tank, skipping the use of bucketloads of water. In said tank, specially inserted microorganisms break down the poop and turn it into methane. The methane is then used as energy for the building. So far it has been used to power a gas stove, heat water and it powers a solid oxide fuel cell. "If we think out of the box, faeces has precious value to make energy and manure. I have put this value into ecological circulation," Cho said.

While some commentators think it isn't worth it unless it works at scale, there's no reason why humans can't build this into a massive thing. If a person poops around 500 grams of the good stuff daily, then the result is 50 litres of methane gas, generating 0.5kWh of power. This will power a car for 1.2km, or 0.75 miles. Realising that means that the more people poop in your toilet, the more energy you will have, public spaces like gyms and restaurants will do well to convince humans to come and spend time in the smallest rooms in the building. Professor Cho has developed a cryptocurrency called Ggool (it translates as honey) to entice people to poop where it will be put to good use. Every person who donates a poop in the special throne earns 10 Ggool. Already, the Ggool can be used to buy stuff. Students at the university can buy things like coffee, noodles and books on campus.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra will see some significant upgrades in camera, performance, and battery life. But the Galaxy S23 Ultra will also see a noticeable improvement in audio quality as well thereby improving the multimedia experience. Samsung will launch the Galaxy S23 Ultra on the 1st day of February.

After nearly 5 years of development, Windows Vienna has finally been completed! From originally being a basic concept, it is now finally Windows OS is its own right! (Well...kinda.) It's a custom Windows Vista mod with an alternate visual style and shell with different wallpapers, icons, sample media, gadgets, and the list goes on. It's been fun creating Windows Vienna over the years however, I'm glad that Windows Vienna has come to be what it is today!

Samsung's Galaxy S23 is expected to be the focus of the phone maker's next Unpacked event, which the company just announced will take place on Feb. 1. This year, a new lineup would compete directly with Apple's iPhone 14 and Google's Pixel 7. Samsung didn't provide details Tuesday about what to expect from the event, which will be held in person in San Francisco and also broadcast online. But the company typically releases new Galaxy S phones during the first quarter, including the Galaxy S22 last year. The announcement also follows leaks, such as this report from Korean newspaper JoongAng Daily that suggested an early February debut for the Galaxy S23. If Samsung follows its previous pattern, we can expect to see three versions of its new phone: the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 Plus and Galaxy S23 Ultra. Samsung's invitation includes an image of three spotlights ranging in size from small to medium to large, possibly hinting as much.
