A newly uncovered surveillance campaign illustrates how consistently mobile threats have evolved and are now deliberately misusing everyday infrastructure for espionage purposes. The analysis focuses on the Android malware Arsink RAT, a remote access Trojan that remains active on infected devices for long periods of time without being detected, deliberately relying on inconspicuous communication channels.

Anyone scrolling through the Steam catalog on Linux or Steam Deck will quickly encounter a familiar warning sign. Games are labeled as “not compatible with Proton.” No green check mark, no “Verified” label, just the implicit suggestion that the title may in fact be unplayable on your system. This classification seems definitive, but it isn’t. […]

What happened here has nothing to do with everyday hardware. An overclocker takes one of the best custom graphics cards of the Turing era, rips out its heart, and replaces it with the full configuration that NVIDIA reserved exclusively for the Titan RTX at the time. The result is an RTX 2080 Ti that is […]

At the beginning of 2026, the DRAM market finds itself in a situation that can be described as tense without exaggeration. Rising prices, limited availability, and massive markups on high-capacity modules are hitting gamers and enthusiasts particularly hard. In this conflict, many buyers are turning their attention to Chinese manufacturers such as ChangXin Memory Technologies […]

LibreOffice comes with a robust spell checker based on the widely used Hunspell library, which is also used in applications such as Firefox and Thunderbird. For many users, this basic function is sufficient, but when it comes to grammar, punctuation, style issues, or consistent spelling, the integrated solution quickly reaches its limits. This is where […]

Since the introduction of Private Cloud Compute in 2024, Apple has consistently focused its long-term AI strategy on data protection. The company deliberately positioned itself as an alternative to cloud-centric AI platforms by establishing a hybrid approach in which simple tasks are processed directly on the end device and more complex queries run exclusively via […]

Today’s article is about an uncompromising high-end gaming PC, where budget is not a factor at first. The goal is to implement the best possible cooling technology, achieve the quietest possible operation, and house the whole thing in a visually harmonious design. RGB lighting is not an end in itself here, but rather supports the […]

The development of the next generation of Xbox consoles at Microsoft appears to be reaching a decisive phase. As AMD CEO Lisa Su explained during the earnings call for the fourth quarter of 2025, work on the semi-custom system-on-a-chip for Microsoft is progressing according to plan and is designed to support the market launch of […]

Intel is once again venturing into a business area that it abandoned four decades ago. And, as is so often the case, this is not out of nostalgia, but out of necessity. The global expansion of AI infrastructure has pushed the DRAM market to its physical and economic limits. Supply chains are strained, suppliers are […]

Deutsche Telekom is entering the market for AI data centers with a new large-scale project in Munich, deliberately choosing an inner-city location. In the Bavarian capital, the company is commissioning a cloud data center designed specifically for artificial intelligence applications, which was realized in collaboration with US chip manufacturer Nvidia. The official opening will be […]

In the AI industry, there is currently little talk of anything other than NVIDIA and OpenAI. Not because anything fundamental has changed in terms of official commitments, but because the sheer scale of this partnership overshadows the entire market. Anyone talking about AI infrastructure today inevitably mentions these two names. And that is precisely where […]

Hardly any other technology has changed everyday digital life as much in recent years as generative artificial intelligence. With ChatGPT from OpenAI and Gemini from Google, there are now two systems that not only offer similar functions but also compete for the same users. Both applications are available on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS and claim […]

In today’s test, I am looking at Alphacool Apex Thermal Putty X1 because this product exemplifies a current change in the field of thermal interface materials. Thermal putties are increasingly evolving from a purely industrial solution to a serious alternative in the consumer and enthusiast market. The decisive factor here is not so much a […]

What is being reported here is not an incremental update, but an architectural change. According to the latest leak, AMD plans to increase the number of cores per core complex die from eight to twelve in Zen 6. At the same time, the L3 cache per CCD is set to grow from 32 to 48 […]

What would normally be considered a total economic loss has become a long-term experiment with an open outcome. A severely damaged GeForce RTX 5070 Ti with a literal hole in the PCB has achieved a new benchmark world record after months of repair and modding work. Responsible for this is a Brazilian modding team led […]

Apple appears to be on the verge of officially unveiling the previously missing MacBook Pro models with the more powerful M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. After the regular MacBook Pro with M5 SoC was presented in October last year, professional users are still waiting for the traditionally more powerful offshoots of the respective chip […]

Intel is significantly expanding its workstation portfolio with the introduction of the Xeon 600 processors, clearly positioning the new generation against AMD’s current Threadripper 9000 series. Codenamed Granite Rapids, the platform is aimed at professional users in areas such as content creation, engineering, scientific simulations, AI development, financial analysis, and other highly parallelized workloads.

LG’s withdrawal from the 8K television market marks the end of a chapter that for years was considered the next big technological leap in the TV segment, but never really caught on in practice. The South Korean manufacturer has completely discontinued the development and production of televisions with 8K panels. This affects both models with […]

Since the first and so far only trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI was released, the focus has been less on the game itself and more on its economic implications. Production budget, development time, monetization, and now increasingly the retail price are becoming the real elephant in the room. The latest report of an alleged […]

The Sharkoon Skiller SGH40W headset is a prime example of a product category that is often either dismissed outright or superficially praised in tests: affordable wireless models in the $70 range.

According to recent reports, Apple is evaluating the development of a foldable iPhone in the so-called clamshell format. Internally, this project is apparently referred to as iPhone Flip, although this is not an officially confirmed product name. The considerations are closely linked to the planned launch of the iPhone Fold, which is positioned as the […]

Linux-Gaming leidet seit Jahren nicht an fehlender Leistung, sondern an struktureller Selbstsabotage. Zu viele Distributionen, zu viele Sonderlösungen, zu viele Kernel-Patches, die irgendwo zwischen GitHub-Repo und Maintainer-Burnout versanden. Genau hier setzt das Open Gaming Collective an und das ist der entscheidende Unterschied zu früheren gut gemeinten Initiativen.   Bislang kochte jede Gaming-nahe Linux-Distribution ihr eigenes […]

185 watts of power dissipation, dissipated by a low-profile CPU cooler. This sentence alone sounds like marketing folklore from the “PowerPoint thermodynamics” department. This is precisely why the concept presented in the video attracts attention, but at the same time requires sober assessment. After all, there is a world of difference between theoretical feasibility, practical […]

The first publicly documented denial-of-service attack occurred in 1996, when New York-based internet service provider Panix was rendered inaccessible for several days by a relatively simple SYN flood attack. A few hundred manipulated connection requests were enough to overload the infrastructure at the time. At that time, the term cyber resilience was hardly established, nor […]
