“We think that for every gigawatt, it's about 25 exabytes of new flash creation,” says Greg Matson, SVP and head of products and marketing at Solidigm. Matson joins Bloomberg Intelligence's Jake Silverman on the Tech Disruptors podcast to discuss how Solidigm is powering AI's growing data demands. The conversation explores the company's evolution into a data-center-focused pure play, its innovations in high-capacity SSDs and how it's positioning to lead in the next era of gigawatt-scale AI infrastructure.

If your laptop is constantly full, your RAW files are scattered everywhere and Lightroom feels like chaos waiting to implode - this episode is your new best friend. Today we're breaking down our full workflow and file-handling systems as professional food photographers, so you can finally get organised and stop second-guessing yours.And the best part? We each work totally differently and we dissect these different workflows in this episode.One of us uses a fully automated system built around a Synology NAS, with seamless backups and zero manual steps. The other relies on portable SSDs, a structured folder system, and a manual (but super reliable) backup process. We walk through both workflows in detail, including how we handle working files when shooting on location, how we protect client files before we're back at our main workstation and what we recommend for photographers at different experience levels.From tethering, importing to Lightroom, through different approaches for how to work with Lightroom catalogs and image culling to long-term archiving, you'll learn exactly how to build a workflow that works for you. Whether you want automation or simplicity.Focus & Flourish is a podcast hosted by Marta and Linda, two professional food photographers and educators, each episode dives deep into the real behind-the-scenes of running a creative business.

URGREEN have recently launched the NASync DH2300 and the NASync DH4300 Plus for the UK and Irish market. We reviewed the NASync DH4300 Plus here, but today we are looking at the more budget-friendly NASync DH2300. The NASync DH2300 is a 2-Bay device which is really easy to set up and use and is aimed at the beginner market. Even so, it doesn't skimp on features, and the unit is very well spec'd for its price. What's in the Box Inside the box, the NASync DH2300 comes with a power supply, Ethernet cable, an instruction manual, a set of screws for fastening drives into the carriers for each bay, and a small screwdriver. Specs Initial Setup The setup of the NASync DH2300 is very straightforward, even for a beginner. The included manual will step you through each step if it's your first time, and for anyone else who has any experience with PCs, you will be up and running in no time. The two drive bays are accessed from a cover at the top of the device. Once removed it reveals two hard driver carriers which can be removed by squeezing two tabs together and pulling up. The carriers can accept both 2.5" and 3.5" hard drives or SSDs. UGREEN include the screws and a small screwdriver to help you secure your chosen drives in the carriers. We went with two 4TB, 3.5" drives from Seagate to test out how the unit will perform. It is best practice with NAS to use matching drives to avoid any performance or storage issues. We fitted both drives and then connected the power supply and Ethernet cable to a free port on a router in the office, and we were ready to power the device up for the first time. Time to Boot! We powered up the device and checked the manual to see how we could find the device on our network. To find your device, you open a browser on your PC and navigate to find.ugnas.com. From there, you are presented with a UGOS Pro operating system and UI, which will guide you through the setup. The UI guides you through creating an Admin account, linking an email address, and once that is done, it configures the system for a few minutes and then presents you with the UI of the operating system. In total, from pressing the button on the front of the device to turn it on, to the initial setup being complete, and the OS being available to use, took 8 minutes. The next thing you need to do is to create a Volume using the storage pool available and select the RAID option you require. As this is a 2-bay device, there are fewer RAID options than there are with the larger 4-bay NASync DH4300 Plus. We went with RAID 1, which is the recommended choice for a two-drive system. This allows for your data to be stored and backed up on each of the drives, so if one drive fails, your data will still be safe. The steps to set this up are easy and explained to you along the way. Once you have selected what you want, the system creates the storage pool. As we used large capacity spinning disks, this took about 20 hours to complete. The system is usable during this time, so you can get busy adding users, installing apps and setting up remote access. NASync DH2300 Features The NASync DH2300, while more budget-friendly, is still feature-packed and includes everything you need to a device like that. Multiple Users It is possible to add multiple users to the NAS and allocate certain access rights and storage quotas, all of which is easily managed from the Control Panel. Remote Access Remote access to the UI is available either through an intermediary server or through port forwarding if you choose to set it up this way. Ports The NASync DH2300 comes with three high-speed USB ports (2 x Type A & 1 x Type C) as well as a 1GbE port and an HDMI port that supports 4K/ 60Hz. File Services There is support for common file transfer services such as SMB, FTP and NFS, making it really easy to map/access the device's storage from your PC's file explorer. The range of services ensures support for just about any of the main PC operating systems. Security The sys...

Modern data analytic methods and tools—including artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) classifiers—are revolutionizing prediction capabilities and automation through their capacity to analyze and classify data. To produce such results, these methods depend on correlations. However, an overreliance on correlations can lead to prediction bias and reduced confidence in AI outputs.  Drift in data and concept, evolving edge cases, and emerging phenomena can undermine the correlations that AI classifiers rely on. As the U.S. government increases its use of AI classifiers and predictors, these issues multiply (or use increase again). Subsequently, users may grow to distrust results. To address inaccurate erroneous correlations and predictions, we need new methods for ongoing testing and evaluation of AI and ML accuracy. In this podcast from the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute (SEI), Nicholas Testa, a senior data scientist in the SEI's Software Solutions Division (SSD), and Crisanne Nolan, and Agile transformation engineer, also in SSD, sit down with Linda Parker Gates, Principal Investigator for this research and initiative lead for Software Acquisition Pathways at the SEI, to discuss the AI Robustness (AIR) tool, which allows users to gauge AI and ML classifier performance with data-based confidence. 

Heute haben wir eine gute und eine schlechte Nachricht. Die gute: Es geht vorwärts bei der Batterietechnologie für Elektro-Autos! Nissan hat angekündigt, bis 2028 mit einer neuentwickelten Festkörperbatterie in die Massenproduktion zu gehen. Im Vergleich zu klassischen Lithium-Ionen-Batterien machen die alles besser, höhere Energiedichte, bessere Temperaturstabilität, höhere Ladeleistung und voraussichtlich sogar günstiger zu produzieren. Und Nissan ist nicht der einzige Produzent. Jetzt zur schlechten Nachricht. Die Speicherpreise sind massiv gestiegen und werden es wohl auch noch weiter steigen: RAM, VRAM, SSDs und sogar HDDs. Und was ist schuld? Der "KI"-Hype. Ohne Verstand werden links und rechts neue Rechenzentren aus dem Boden gestampft, die nicht mehr nach Rechenleistung bemessen werden, sondern nach Energiebedarf. Künstlich geschaffene Nachfrage nach Lösungen auf der Suche nach Problemen. Microsoft und Google stopfen generative AI den Nutzern in den Rachen und verschlechtern ihre Produkte. OpenAI ruft nach staatlicher Unterstützung. Nvidias Jensen Huang sieht China als langfristiger Gewinner des AI-Wettrennens, deshalb sollen alle noch mehr AI-Accelerators von Nvidia kaufen. Diese Blase kann nicht schnell genug platzen. Bei der ganzen schlechten Laune hilft vielleicht doch mal ein Cozy Survival Game, so richtig reduziert. Zum Runterkommen. Winter Burrow dürfte sich da ganz gut eignen. Mit einer kleinen Maus in der winterlichen Wildnis langsam den heruntergekommenen Bau der Eltern wieder herrichten. Das klingt entspannend. Viel Spaß mit Folge 281!

We're joined by Nancy Barile, award-winning author of "I'm Not Holding Your Coat", an insightful chronicle of her life as an OG Philadelphia/Boston punk who lived through the golden age of hardcore music as it evolved in real time before her eyes. The Ramones, Bad Brains, Misfits, Minor Threat, Black Flag... You name it, she saw it. We talk about the legendary brawl in Kensington, booking the infamous "Gathering of the Tribes" show, cold calling CBGBs to get bands booked, and bumping elbows with just about every legendary figure in hardcore punk, and much more. Her husband, the late great Al Barile of SSD, was a pioneer of the straight edge movement and a name brought up often on HardLore throughout the years. He sadly passed away in April of 2025, and we talk all about their chance meeting, his impact on us, and share stories of Al through the years and look back at his perception of how straight edge and hardcore music have grown since his early days in SSD. An incredibly informative and cathartic conversation and an episode we've wanted to make happen for a long time. Thank you Nancy for joining us and all of you for watching/listening. RIP Al Barile. ________________ Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf) HardLore: A Knotfest Series Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepod Join the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef Cool links: HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.com Try AG1 and AGZ at DrinkAG1.com/HARDLORE to receive a free frother. Get 15% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code HARDLORE at MANSCAPED.com! #ad #manscapedpod FOLLOW NANCY: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/nancybarile/ FOLLOW HARDLORE: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/ TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepod SPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrp APPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2 FOLLOW COLIN: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/ FOLLOW BO: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/ TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE_______________________00:00:00 - Start 00:00:57 - Hello Welcome 00:03:48 - Discovering Punk in It's Infancy 00:15:56 - Catholic School, The Who, McDonald's 00:18:22 - Connecting with Students Through Punk 00:26:53 - Ramones at University of PA 00:31:02 - The Misfits in 1981 00:34:35 - Managing the Sadistic Exploits 00:43:14 - Meeting Al Barile 00:56:15 - Pardon This Interruption 00:58:54 - Kenmore Square 01:05:01 - The Bad Brains & Homophobia 01:09:41 - Black Flag, SOA, And Kensington Brawl 01:23:43 - Exiting Hardcore Before the Late 80's Boom 01:33:31 - Straight Edge's Evolution 01:43:10 - Remembering Al Barile & Celebrating His Legacy Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you treat speech sound disorders (SSD) and you're not seeing the gains you expect, this episode is your playbook. We cut through the noise and name the 10 research-informed predictors of slower progress—attention/self-monitoring limits, sensitive temperament, co-occurring language/working-memory load, hearing impairment (fricatives/affricates), motor speech factors, structural constraints (e.g., open bite), low stimulability, later start to intervention, low therapy intensity/irregular attendance, and environmental barriers. Then we pivot hard into the three levers that consistently move outcomes: choosing complex, maximally distinct targets (e.g., SW-blends), delivering dynamic temporal tactile cueing (DTTC-style), and holding the ~80% challenge point to avoid reinforcing error patterns. Concrete therapy examples, parent carryover, and generalization strategies included. What you'll learn:

Los nuevos procesadores de Apple son los mejores hasta la fecha. Sorpresa. Pero esconden muchos secretos que os iremos contando porque no todos los procesadores M5 son iguales. Y no nos referimos a la falta de procesadores M5 Pro ni M5 Max.Analizamos en profundidad los nuevos productos de Apple presentados con el chip M5. Exploramos las características del chip M5, destacando las mejoras en CPU y GPU, especialmente para tareas de inteligencia artificial, el aumento de la RAM base a 12GB y el mayor ancho de banda de memoria. Comentamos la llegada de las versiones actualizadas del MacBook Pro, iPad Pro y Vision Pro con esta nueva generación de procesadores. Detallamos las novedades en el MacBook Pro de 14 pulgadas, incluyendo su SSD más rápido y la controvertida decisión de no incluir adaptador de corriente en Europa y Reino Unido, justificada por las regulaciones de la Unión Europea y una rebaja de precio. En cuanto al iPad Pro M5, resaltamos sus capacidades superiores en algunos aspectos al MacBook, como soporte para monitores externos de 120Hz y la inclusión de Wifi 7. También revisamos las discretas mejoras en el Vision Pro M5, como el ligero aumento de píxeles de rendimiento y la nueva correa que mejora la comodidad, lamentando la ausencia de un programa de trade-in para el modelo anterior.Además, comentamos sobre el cambio de nombre del servicio de streaming a "Apple TV" (eliminando el "Plus") y la adquisición de los derechos de Fórmula 1 para Estados Unidos, un movimiento que consideramos estratégico para el crecimiento de su oferta deportiva y que Eddy Cue ha insinuado que ha llevado a más de 50 millones de suscriptores.Finalmente, abordamos el curioso "Rosagate", donde algunos iPhone 17 Pro Max naranjas están adoptando una tonalidad rosada, y la reciente visita de Tim Cook a China, la cual, a pesar de la buena acogida y un regalo personalizado, generó un debate sobre el equilibrio de las inversiones de Apple a nivel global.- Apple lanza el M5, un gran avance en rendimiento de la IA para los chips de Apple - Apple (ES)- El nuevo MacBook Pro no incluye cargador (y la culpa no es de Apple) | Tecnología- INIYSA on X: "Wonder how much better M5 will be for gaming Apple's gen 2 dynamic caching gave A19 a huge boost in games with complex shaders" / X- 9to5Mac on X: "Here's the most impressive thing about the M5 chip https://t.co/r3birw31yG by @benlovejoy" / X- Apple TV gana a ESPN los derechos de la F1 en EEUU con un acuerdo histórico- M5 Vision Pro weighs 150g more than M2 Vision Pro : r/apple- Some iPhone 17 Pro Max Units Are Fading From Cosmic Orange To Rose Gold As Oxidation Complaints Surface- Los Labubus de Tim Cook

Apple mueve ficha y desvela su jugada con el M5: nuevos MacBook Pro, Vision Pro y iPad Pro enfocados en IA, potencia gráfica y autonomía. Repasamos qué cambia de verdad (GPU de nueva generación, aceleradores neuronales por núcleo, SSD más rápido, “hasta un día” de batería, precios y fechas), y cómo encaja en la estrategia 360º de servicios: Apple se queda la Fórmula 1 en EE. UU. desde 2026 y estrena bundle Apple TV + Peacock con descuentos en Apple One. Además: primeras sensaciones con iOS/iPadOS 26.1, ventas fuertes del iPhone 17 y AAPL en máximos, el valor de la potencia local tras caídas en la nube, y nuestros preparativos para las J-Pod Terrassa (¡tres charlas y quedada con oyentes!). Todo con humor, ejemplos reales y preguntas incómodas: ¿la IA importa menos que el color del iPhone y las promos?

The Fork In Your Ear Podcast Ep#203 End of Line Hosts Tim K. Trotter and Nate Foo discuss video games, entertainment, technology, and personal life updates in a casual, banter-filled episode. They note this might be the last with the current cast due to Nate's upcoming personal changes. Opening and Setup The episode starts with technical glitches (freezes during recording setup) and casual chit-chat about sleep, caffeine, and weather. They spin a "topic wheel" landing on video games. Video Games (Main Focus) News and Rumors: Free Assassin's Creed Mirage expansion (funded by Saudi government, adding 5-10 hours of content, releasing Nov 18). Debunked rumor of Microsoft canceling a handheld due to AMD sales demands. Positive reviews for ROG Ally X handhelds ($800-$1100 models), praised as strong Steam Deck competitors but criticized for Xbox-PC library confusion. Windows 10 end-of-support (Oct 2025), pushing users to Windows 11 with workarounds for older hardware. Nintendo's unexplained animated short revealed as Pikmin-related, with plans for more in-house CGI shorts. Astroneer spin-off Star Seeker (2026, multiplayer-focused, handcrafted levels). Game Pass changes: PC tier crippled (no day-one releases, reduced library); premium tier required for full access, causing confusion and backlash. Games Mentioned: Space Adventure Cobra (Metroidvania adapting 1980s anime, recommended). Tron Identity and Catalyst (picked up by Tim). Fortnite Tron Ares skins (Tim frustrated by purchase issues due to timed exclusivity). Minecraft Tron pack. Death of Team Ninja founder Tomonobu Itagaki (58), praised for Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive despite controversies. Games Played: Nate enjoyed Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (funny, retro FPS with Michael Biehn voicing). Tim beat Hollow Knight (48 hours, 86% completion; critiques it harshly for "artificially hard" design, inconsistent controls, and cheap difficulty, calling it "the best game I don't recommend"). Started Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (highly praised Metroidvania). Brief mentions of Dead Cells and Castlevania for better controls. Entertainment In-depth review of Tron Ares (spoilers avoided): Both hosts loved it as a fun, visually stunning sequel blending old and new grids. Praised direction, action (light cycles, disc fights), Nine Inch Nails soundtrack, and themes (AI, identity). Minor critiques: heavy-handed callbacks, some sound inconsistencies, Jared Leto's performance (good but uneven). Tim notes it's his wife's favorite Tron film; appeals to non-fans. Discussed CGI evolution and fan reactions. Technology Apple surprise press release: M5 chip (best single-core performance ever), new M5 MacBook Pros and iPad Pros (available now, with faster SSDs). Apple TV+ rebranding to Apple TV (confusing due to hardware overlap); bundling with Peacock. Rivian CEO doubles down on skipping Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, accepting lost sales. Nate recommends CMF Headphone Pros ($100: excellent noise-canceling, on-device EQ, 60+ hour battery, replaceable ear cushions). Tim's ad-driven interests: Bearskin Hoodie 4.0 (tried one, praises pockets and fit but notes rain issues). Ridge Wallet Tracker Card ($45: slim, rechargeable Find My-compatible). Brief home improvement/Tool Time parody idea for a hypothetical YouTube channel. Life Updates Nate shares his drinking problem; intake for rehab starts Monday (hoping for outpatient to avoid work disruption). Wife stayed elsewhere last night due to issues. Tim's doctor visit: Stage 2 hypertension (unexpected spike); quitting alcohol post-current stock, limiting caffeine to one morning cup. Pursuing heart scans for genetic concerns (related to late father's issues). Leg physical therapy ongoing. Mom moving in end-Oct/early-Nov. Haunted house crawl tomorrow (waiver-required, including friends he matchmade). Friends' new relationship progressing adorably (poems, dates). Bought Nine Inch Nails tickets; Mariners baseball hype noted. The episode runs long (~3 hours), filled with humor, rants (e.g., Tim's Hollow Knight frustration), and mutual support. Ends with plans for editing and future episodes, uncertain due to Nate's situation.   Join The Fork Family On Discord: https://discord.gg/CXrFKxR8uA Find all our stuff at Remember to give us a review on iTunes or wherever you downloaded this podcast from.

Charting the Future of AI Storage Infrastructure In this episode, Solidigm Director of Strategic Planning Brian Jacobosky guides listeners through a tech-forward conversation on how storage infrastructure is helping redefine the AI-era data center. The discussion frames storage as more than just a cost factor; it's also a strategic building block for performance, efficiency, and savings. Storage Moves to the Center of AI Data Infrastructure Jacobosky explains how, in the AI-driven era, storage is being elevated from a forgotten metric like “dollars per gigabyte” to a core priority: maximizing GPU utilization, managing soaring power draw, and unlocking space savings. He illustrates how every watt and every square inch counts. As GPU compute scales dramatically, storage efficiency is being engineered to enable maximum density and throughput. High-Capacity SSDs as a Game-Changer Jacobosky spotlights Solidigm D5-P5336 122TB SSDs as emblematic of the shift. Rather than a simple technical refresh, these drives represent a tectonic realignment in how data centers are being designed for huge capacity and optimized performance. With all-flash deployments offering up to nine times the space savings compared to hybrid architectures, Jacobosky underscores how SSD density can enable more GPU scale within fixed power and space budgets. This could even unlock achieving a 1‑petabyte SSD by the end of the decade. Embedded Efficiency The episode brings environmental considerations to the forefront. Jacobosky shares how an “all‑SSD” strategy can dramatically slash physical footprints as well as energy consumption. From data center buildout through end of lifecycle drive retirement, efficiency is driving both operational cost savings and ESG benefits — helping reduce concrete and steel usage, power draw, and e‑waste. Pioneering Storage Architectures and Cooling Innovation Listeners learn how AI-first innovators like Neo Cloud-style providers and sovereign AI operators lead the charge in deploying next-generation storage. Jacobosky also previews the Solidigm PS-1010 E1.S form factor, an NVIDIA fanless server solution that enables direct‑to‑chip Cold-Plate-Cooled SSDs integrated into GPU servers. He predicts that this systems-level integration will become a standard for high-density AI infrastructure. Storage as a Strategic Investment Solidigm challenges the notion that high-capacity storage is cost prohibitive. Within the framework of the AI token economy, Jacobosky explains that the true measure becomes minimizing cost per token and time to first token and, when storage is optimized for performance, capacity, and efficiency, the total cost of ownership (TCO) will often prove favorable after the first evaluation. Looking Ahead: Memory Wall, Inference Workloads, Liquid Cooling Jacobosky ends with a look ahead to where storage innovation will lead in the next five years. As AI models grow in size and complexity, he argues, storage is increasingly acting as an extension of memory, breaking through the “memory wall” for large inference workloads. Companies will design infrastructure from the ground up with liquid-cooling, future-scalable storage, and storage that supports massive model deployments without compromising latency. This episode is essential listening for data center architects, AI infrastructure strategists, and sustainability leaders looking to understand how storage is fast-becoming a defining factor in AI-ready data centers of the future.

New Episode: Join us for the latest episode of TechAddicts! We're chatting about Linux issues, the Retroid Pocket Classic plus updates on Honor's MagicPad 3 Pro and Amazon's new hardware. Oh, and beware: Xbox Game Pass fans are cancelling their subs due to a price hike! With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon Join us on Mewe Feedback, Fallout and Contributions Ian Barton (Quick mention as now done elsewhere) Ian was particularly enthused about all things Linux and Open Source so was one of our more active members here in TA. He taught me much about all sorts of tech stuff - a kind chap - very kind - and thoughtful. RIP Dennis Schreiner on Linux Mint and BeeLink Sluggishness I just wanted to say that I have a Beelink with Ryzen 5800 U and Linux Mint is not running well for me on it either. I think Mint is the Problem since it switched to Ubuntu. I have since had a lot of performance issues with it. Also in the Top Linux List it's going downhill. I wouldn't now recommend Mint anymore for beginners and low-spec'd PCs. Since I switched my BeeLink to Fedora Linux (KDE Plasma version) it's very smooth-running again. Also Fedora is pretty easy to operate. Bazzite and Nobara are also beginner-friendly with low spec requirements. I'm enjoying TA, thank you :) CachyOS Ujjwal Sehgal on Retroid Pocket Classic I bought this thinking I'd use it purely for retro gaming but it's starting to become a favourite overall retro gadget. Beautiful OLED touchscreen. Runs Android 14. Google Play store present. Snapdragon G1 Gen 2. 128GB of storage. microSD slot. Icing on the cake is the head phone jack. I find myself using it to listen to music when I'm away from my phone. The squareish screen is great for watching old 4:3 TV content. It kind of feels like what GameBoy could have been if it were released today! I remember using my original PSP in the same way when I was younger. Feels like a nostalgic digital detox device - as the screen aspect ratio is awful for email, WhatsApp or any social media apps!

professorjrod@gmail.comA dead PC at the worst moment is a gut punch—unless you have a roadmap. We walk through the exact thinking that turns “no lights, no fans, no display” into a calm, step‑by‑step recovery, starting where every system truly begins: firmware. BIOS and UEFI aren't trivia; they decide how your machine discovers drives, validates bootloaders, and applies security like Secure Boot and TPM. That's why a simple post‑update check of boot order, storage mode, and firmware toggles can rescue a lab full of “no boot device” errors in minutes.From there, we get brutally honest about power. PSUs age, rails sag, and idle tests lie. You'll learn the outside‑in “power ladder,” why a line‑interactive UPS prevents ghost errors, and how unstable XMP profiles masquerade as OS problems. We demystify boot and drive failures—wrong boot entries, NVMe lane conflicts, cloning driver mismatches—and show how SMART data, free space, cooling, and firmware updates revive sluggish SSDs. Then we cut through RAID mythology: 0 for speed, 1 for uptime, 5 for read‑heavy with risk, 6 for double‑parity safety, and 10 for fast resilience. And we repeat the rule that saves careers: RAID is not backup. Verify restores, keep copies offsite or offline, and schedule tests before disaster strikes.Video issues get the practical treatment too. No display? Check inputs and connect to the discrete GPU, not the motherboard. Blurry or artifacting under load? Validate refresh rates, cables, thermals, and PSU capacity. We close with a field checklist and a case study where a quality PSU upgrade stabilized 3D renders instantly—proof that systems thinking beats screen-chasing every time. If you want a technician's mindset—evidence over assumptions, one variable at a time—this guide will sharpen your process and speed your fixes.If this helped you think like a tech, follow the show, share it with a teammate who's on call this week, and leave a quick review so more builders and troubleshooters can find it.Support the showIf you want to help me with my research please e-mail me.Professorjrod@gmail.comIf you want to join my question/answer zoom class e-mail me at Professorjrod@gmail.comArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

Pre-show: Eh, that’ll keep… M5 iPad Pro FCC leaks

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews JB Baker, VP of Marketing and Product Management at ScaleFlux. They dive deep into the challenges and innovations in data storage and memory for AI workloads, discuss the hidden costs of data center inefficiency, and explore how ScaleFlux is disrupting the industry with advanced flash storage solutions. JB also shares insights from his endurance athlete mindset and offers advice for innovators. Key Takeaways: The Data Bottleneck in AI (2:01) The biggest challenge in AI infrastructure is not processing power, but storage and memory that can't keep up with demand. Hidden Costs in Data Centers (7:12) Up to 40% of data center power is spent on cooling, not processing, leading to massive inefficiencies and costs. ScaleFlux’s Disruptive Solution (15:38) ScaleFlux’s custom SSD controllers enable real-time data compression in hardware, doubling performance and reducing costs for enterprises. Endurance Mindset in Business (23:18) JB applies lessons from endurance sports to business, emphasizing persistence and continuous improvement as keys to innovation. Quote of the Show (3:41):"Those cores can process so much more data per second and so much more data per watt. But when the entire infrastructure isn't balanced, you're losing out on these efficiencies. And so there it is, creating hidden costs." — JB Baker Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Tons of scenes heating up this month as the weather cools down! We discuss a new update to the modified original Xbox backwards compatibility files for the Xbox 360, now with individual games being able to be configured with additional fixes. Insignia Live gives us an awesome progress update regarding support for EA titles and a bit about the Xbox 360 side of house. Speaking of the Xbox 360, we get two major pieces of news! One being the release of ABadAvatar, a new entrypoint for Bad Update that no longer requires any game to load it. SSD support is now available for all consoles, including totally stock retail systems! Anyone wanting to know about BadWDSD gets a taste of what the developers have been cooking up in the background for the last few months. The PS5 gets a bit of love with Kstuff being updated to work up to 9.60, with more to come it seems! The Switch has a few projects highlighted for it, along with the Pokémon mini handheld of all things, and an awesome preservation accomplishment has been achieved for the arcade build of Soul Calibur 2!

While Ghost of Yotei has gone gold and is now right around the corner, other segments of PlayStation Studios are on far less sturdy ground. Fairgames (or Fairgame$, if you like marketing) is seemingly the latest victim of an unprecedented run of bad decision-making, execution, and leadership within Sony's first party, as the upcoming shooter has shed its director, often (though not always) a dire sign for any project. Taken with recent reports (from this very show) of poor internal playtesting -- all the while Haven has already shed its major front-facing face and co-founder Jade Raymond -- we simply have to wonder whether Fairgames will ever launch at all. And if it does, does it have any potential to succeed whatsoever? Other news this week includes the rumored reemergence of Insomniac's Wolverine project, downward-revised SSD space for upcoming PS5 consoles, a fresh look at the promising Uncharted-like IO title 007: First Light, and much more. Then: Listener inquiries! Does Naughty Dog actually represent the pinnacle of game dev? How much can people twist themselves into a knot to justify piracy? What kind of pressure are studios and publishers under to adopt AI solutions? Will "Alleghany Hogs" catch on around the world?
