Rufus 4.16 Beta Works Around AMI NTFS Firmware Bug Affecting Millions of PCs - tech
(hx) 11:15 AM CET - Oct,31 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

The popular free USB boot media tool Rufus released version 4.16 Beta on October 30, 2026. The biggest change is a workaround for a long-standing bug in the AMI UEFI NTFS driver (version 0x10000).

This driver is commonly found in the firmware of motherboards and systems from Asus, Gigabyte, Dell, and Intel. According to Rufus developer Pete Batard, the driver can return completely incorrect data when it reads fragmented files from NTFS volumes. In practice, this means files that pass checksums in Windows or Linux can fail validation when checked from the UEFI environment. Batard says the problem affects millions of PCs.

The issue was reported to AMI in early 2024. The company acknowledged it, but no firmware fix has been released. Board manufacturers are also unlikely to issue updates for it. Instead of waiting for a firmware patch that may never arrive, Rufus 4.16 Beta now forces files to be written contiguously on NTFS media. This prevents the trigger condition for the bug. The approach is similar to one used by 7-Zip since version 17.0.

The update also improves USB device reporting. Rufus can now correctly identify USB 3.2 (20 Gbps), USB 4.0 (40 Gbps), and USB 4.1 (80 Gbps) devices.

Other changes in the beta include fixes for silent installation logic, an ESP partition size regression, Windows User Experience timezone and username issues, a restored classic right-click context menu option, removal of problematic Group Policy usage, improved raw image handling, GRUB updated to 2.16, an updated libcdio library, refreshed DBX URLs, and several security vulnerability fixes.

Rufus 4.16 Beta is available as a pre-release on the official GitHub repository. The current stable release remains 4.15.

AMD 26.10.2 Fixes Radeon Crashes but New Bugs Remain - tech
(hx) 10:00 AM CET - Oct,31 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
AMD released the optional Adrenalin Edition 26.10.2 driver on October 30, 2026. It fixes intermittent driver timeouts, system shutdowns, and application crashes that hit Radeon RX 9000 and 7000 series GPUs.

Key patches target Valor Mortis shutdowns and timeouts, overlay crashes when using the Performance Metrics Overlay with Xbox Game Bar, Death Stranding 2 hangs with FSR, and system crashes with FSR Frame Generation on RX 9000 cards. Some issues on Ryzen AI MAX PRO 400 processors and Steam launcher crashes are also resolved.

However, the release notes still list new known issues. These include intermittent crashes in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced on RX 7000, War Thunder timeouts on RX 5000 (AMD recommends rolling back to 26.9.1), and Cyberpunk 2077 problems with FSR, Anti-Lag, and frame generation on a secondary display for some RX 9000 users.

The driver is optional and focuses only on stability fixes with no new features.

Sam Altman: Your PC's RAM Is "Quite Terrible" Waste* - briefly
(hx) 12:20 AM CET - Oct,31 2026 - Post a comment / read (4)

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says having RAM in personal computers is a poor use of the world's limited DRAM supply.

In an interview on the Cheeky Pint podcast with John Collison, he called it "quite terrible" that the scarce memory sits in people's machines and gets used only about 5% of the time.

He argues that data centers provide much better utilization for AI workloads during the current shortage.

The comments arrive as AI data center demand has driven up DRAM prices and limited supply for consumers and gamers.

OpenAI has itself signed major deals to lock in large volumes of future memory from makers like Samsung and SK Hynix.

The remarks spotlight the clash between local PC computing and cloud AI needs amid the crunch.

France Votes Gigabyte Tax That Could Cost VLC Over €1M a Year - briefly
(hx) 11:16 PM CET - Oct,30 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
French lawmakers passed a new tax on internet traffic in a narrow vote on October 30, 2026. Content providers would pay €0.055 for every gigabyte of data they send to French users, as measured by internet service providers. The Socialist authors of the amendment expect it to raise about €10 billion a year, based on official traffic estimates. The government opposed the measure and warned that roughly half the cost would fall on smaller providers, many of them French. The vote was 11 in favor and 10 against, with only 35 of 577 deputies present. Makers of the free VLC media player said the tax would cost them more than €1 million a year. The measure is part of the 2027 budget bill and is not yet final law.

C3RB3R Ransomware Hits Synology NAS Devices - tech
(hx) 04:03 PM CET - Oct,30 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)
Synology NAS owners are reporting a wave of ransomware that locks their files and demands Bitcoin.

The malware, identified as C3RB3R (a Cerber variant), renames files with the .L0CK3D extension and drops a read-me3.txt ransom note in affected folders. It asks for about 0.037 Bitcoin, roughly $3,000, and threatens to double the price after five days.

Chinese security firm 360 has linked the attacks to two critical DSM flaws (CVE-2026-13639 and CVE-2026-13684) that Synology patched in September. Synology says the activity targets devices still running older software vulnerable to a 2024 flaw. Some reports mention newer DSM versions, but the exact entry point is not fully confirmed in every case.

The attacks have been seen since early October and accelerated in late October. Users should update DSM immediately, remove unnecessary public internet access, and test their backups.

Binance Hit by Record $6.3B Crypto Heist Linked to North Korean Hackers - tech
(hx) 11:02 AM CET - Oct,30 2026 - Post a comment / read (4)
Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange, lost about $6.3 billion in a massive security breach on October 29, 2026. Attackers drained hot wallets across ten blockchains in roughly 20 minutes starting around 20:05 UTC.

Blockchain firm TRM Labs called it the biggest crypto theft ever—roughly four times larger than the 2025 Bybit hack—and attributes it with high confidence to North Korea’s TraderTraitor group. Binance says user funds are safe and will cover all losses from its SAFU fund and company money.

The company points to a compromised DevOps engineer’s laptop as the likely entry point that allowed unauthorized withdrawal transactions, with no private keys leaked. About $3 billion has been frozen by stablecoin issuers such as Tether and Circle plus network partners. Withdrawals remain suspended while the investigation continues.

Minecraft Creator Lists $70M Beverly Hills Mansion for Sale - briefly
(hx) 01:20 PM CET - Oct,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (3)
Minecraft creator Markus 'Notch' Persson has put his Beverly Hills mansion on the market for $70 million. That is the same price he paid for the home in 2014 after outbidding Jay-Z and Beyoncé.

The large estate has eight bedrooms, a private nightclub, and a recording studio. His real estate agent says Persson no longer spends much time in Los Angeles. He is Swedish and mainly lives in Stockholm.

The sale comes as California voters prepare to decide on a proposed one-time 5% wealth tax for billionaires. The tax would apply to those who were state residents at the start of 2026. Persson’s agent has not linked the listing to the tax proposal.

Rare 8GB GTX 750 Ti Hits 30 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 - tech
(hx) 11:19 AM CET - Oct,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (3)
A YouTuber has found a rare NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti with 8 GB of VRAM that can still run Cyberpunk 2077 at around 30 FPS. The custom card comes from Chinese maker Xynsviu and uses the original GM107 chip with 640 CUDA cores.

RandomGaminginHD bought it on Amazon for about £160. It has four times more memory than the standard 2 GB model, though the memory runs at slightly lower clocks. In Cyberpunk 2077 on the lowest settings with FSR, it averaged roughly 32 FPS. Lighter games like CS2 and Fortnite run much smoother. The card needs no extra power cable and fits in small cases.

Apple Now Demands Face Scan to Prove You're Adult on iPhone - briefly
(hx) 10:30 AM CET - Oct,29 2026 - Post a comment / read (1)

Apple has added a selfie-based age check in iOS 27.2 for users in the United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, and Singapore. An age-estimation model running both on the device and in Apple’s Private Cloud Compute analyzes the face scan to confirm the user is 18 or older.

The prompt can appear when someone tries to download or buy an 18+ app, update the software, change certain safety settings, or create a new Apple Account.

Apple says the selfie is not accessible to anyone, including the company, and is deleted immediately after the age is confirmed. Users can still use a credit card or government ID instead in regions where the selfie option is not available. The feature is tied to local age-assurance rules in those countries.

Once confirmed, the check does not need to be repeated.

A developer has shown The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom running natively on Apple’s new iPhone Duo foldable phone. The unofficial port executes the game’s own ARM64 code directly on Apple silicon and translates Switch graphics to Metal instead of using an emulator. It supports on-screen controls with device gyro, PS5 DualSense adaptive triggers and haptics, and seamless play in folded or unfolded modes.

Users must supply their own legally obtained game files; the project does not include any Nintendo content. The work is experimental and not affiliated with Nintendo.

Tears of the Kingdom, running native on iPhone Duo! I'm continuing to cook on these "ports" so make sure to follow for updates in the future. so Just like the last one for Super Mario Odyssey, I’ve added: - Controller and On-screen controls w/ native device gyro. - PS5 DualSense controller support for the unique haptics and adaptive trigger engine. Drawing a bow gives some resistance, and shield surfing feels incredible. - Haptics on device itself when using without a controller. - Play in folded or unfolded mode on the Duo, keeping your gameplay seamless in whatever format you want to enjoy it in. Github repo in the comments so you can try this out on your own legally obtained game files.

GTA 6 Hits 210 GB Download Size as Sony Phases Out Physical Games - briefly
(hx) 10:59 AM CET - Oct,28 2026 - Post a comment / read (2)

Grand Theft Auto VI has a reported 210 GB download size on PlayStation 5, according to PlayStation Store data. Pre-loading starts November 12, with the game launching at midnight on November 19, 2026.

The massive file size comes from the game’s dense open world and detailed content. Players will need to free up significant storage space before the release.

Sony is ending production of physical discs for new PlayStation games starting January 2028. After that date, new titles will be digital-only, though existing games can still be reordered on disc.

The company has also wound down recordable Blu-ray media and standalone players as consumer preference shifts to digital. The GTA 6 size highlights the growing storage demands of modern games amid the move away from physical media.

NVIDIA released GeForce/RTX Spark Hotfix Driver version 621.12 to address problems introduced by Game Ready Driver 621.01. The main fix stops video playback from freezing or causing black screens on some GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and RTX Spark systems. It also resolves an Unreal Engine 5.8 crash when Ray Lighting Mode is set to Hit Lighting. Additional fixes cover HDMI monitor corruption on RTX Spark when using a StarTech Thunderbolt 3 to HDMI 2.0 adapter and intermittent flickering on the MSI N16 Flip laptop. The hotfix is based on the latest Game Ready drivers and is available as an optional download for Windows 10/11 x64 and Windows 11 ARM64. NVIDIA notes that hotfix drivers receive shorter validation than full WHQL releases, with fixes expected in a future official driver. Users affected by the 621.01 video issues can install it directly from NVIDIA’s support page.

A storage setup using four WD Black SN850 1TB NVMe drives in a ZFS pool suddenly degraded. All four drives reported SMART errors even though they had used only about 4 percent of their rated 600TB write endurance.

The drives sat on an ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 carrier with heatsinks and active cooling, and the user said they ran cool. TRIM was enabled on the pool. The warranty had expired six days earlier.

The owner sent SanDisk the SMART logs and diagnostic output. SanDisk made an exception and approved RMA replacements for all four drives. The case is one user’s experience. No wider product recall has been confirmed.
