If DDR5 prices were not painful enough already, counterfeit RAM is now entering the chat. Some fake memory sticks reportedly look convincing enough to fool buyers, right down to plastic chunks disguised as DRAM chips. Fake DDR5 RAM sticks are now getting disturbingly convincing Latest reports from Asian PC markets suggest that counterfeit DDR5 modules are rapidly spreading across online stores and gray-market retailers, especially as memory prices continue to climb. The fake sticks are often disguised as legitimate Samsung or SK Hynix modules, complete with cloned labels, serial stickers, and packaging. 注意喚起DDR5のメモリの偽物が出回ってます。一見すると普通のメモリですが、実際に搭載されているチップはただの基板、プラスチックの板です。取り外して切断して確認しました。動作未確認のメモリーとかマジで購入する際は気をつけてください！4090の悲劇を起こさないように！ pic.twitter.com/gcKAjRDUei— TAKI (@taki_pc_1115) May 10, 2026 Some…

Tesla’s Cybertruck recalls are starting to sound like parody headlines at this point. Because the company’s latest issue reportedly involves something that most drivers generally prefer their vehicles to keep attached at all times: the wheels. Yes, Tesla is recalling Cybertrucks over concerns that the wheels could literally detach while driving. Why is Tesla recalling the Cybertruck this time? According to a recent recall alert by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Tesla is recalling 173 rear-wheel-drive Cybertruck Long Range models from the 2024-2026 model years due to a defect involving the brake rotors and wheel assembly. Apparently, cracks…

The kind of work I do involves constant file sharing, and with iPhones, Android phones, and a MacBook all part of my daily rotation, moving files between them used to be far more exhausting than it should have been. Something as simple as getting a photo or video from an Android phone onto my MacBook often turned into a mini process of its own. Most of the time, I had to upload files to Google Drive, wait for them to sync properly, and then download them again on the other device. It sounds manageable when you describe it once, but…

For a while, I had convinced myself that my next iPhone had to be a Pro. Not because I had genuinely thought about what I needed from a phone, but because the marketing slowly wore me down. The triple cameras, the titanium build, the ProMotion display, the idea that it could handle absolutely anything — it all created this lingering feeling that choosing the regular iPhone would somehow mean compromising. Like I would be missing out on the “real” experience. Then I stopped looking at spec sheets and started looking at my actual usage. And honestly, the entire argument for…

I still remember the first time I properly got into Mortal Kombat. Like many people from my generation, I had obviously seen the characters before. Scorpion yelling “Get over here!”, Sub-Zero freezing people into ice cubes, Raiden looking like a thunder god who somehow still manages to disappear whenever the plot needs him most. Mortal Kombat was always around. But it wasn’t until the 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot game that I truly became invested in the franchise. That game was special because it balanced everything perfectly. It had the gore, the ridiculousness, the iconic rivalries, but it also had a…

Artificial intelligence may be transforming the financial industry, but some firms are beginning to push back against a growing trend: graduates who rely too heavily on AI tools without demonstrating deeper analytical thinking. According to a report by The Financial Times, the issue recently surfaced through experiences shared by senior finance professionals, including one New York financier who described his company’s 2025 interns as the first group of “true AI natives.” These students had grown up using both digital platforms and generative AI systems, and initially appeared highly capable during recruitment. However, according to the financier quoted in the report,…

A cyberattack on Canvas could not have come at a worse time. The learning platform, used by schools and universities for assignments, exams, grades, lecture materials, and class communication, went down during finals week, leaving students and instructors scrambling for alternatives. The incident has been linked to ShinyHunters, a hacking group known for data theft and extortion. According to BleepingComputer, Canvas login portals at hundreds of institutions were defaced with a ransom-style message warning that stolen student data would be leaked unless the attackers were contacted. The group claimed to have obtained data tied to millions of students, teachers, and…

Amazon’s Kindle lineup may dominate the e-reader market, but Onyx Boox clearly wants to be the cool kid in the room. And with the upcoming Poke 7 series, it is leaning hard into style.

Ahead of its official launch in China on May 21, Onyx Boox has revealed the redesigned look of the upcoming Poke 7 series, and it is a noticeable departure from the usual plain black slab aesthetic most e-readers…

I get the appeal of super slim phones like the iPhone Air and Galaxy S25 Edge. The moment you pick them up, the device feels immediately distinct from a typical smartphone. The iPhone Air is ridiculously thin at 5.64mm, which weighs just 165 grams, and still gives you a reasonably large 6.5-inch OLED display with ProMotion. For its size, Apple gets the comfort part right. Many smartphones in general are becoming tiring in a very specific way. They are either too tall, camera-heavy, or get too heavy to use for longer stretches with one hand. The iPhone Air manages to…
