The CoWoS process is specialized but it was formerly used by a lot of companies… Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, Intel, Amazon, Meta, etc… If this is true it completely screws their datacenter AI plans, as well as a lot of other things.

Factual answer no, no they couldn’t. The US Govt would not allow that to fall into the hands of China cutting off access to the closest thing to a modern node from a US company on US soil.

I just got off a call with HP and in it they detailed that they do enable BitLocker automatically and it's part of their onboard security platform for business and enterprise clients, it's part of what they call their HP Wolf Security which is a whole platform and part of their Pro Support and...

Giggles in 6000 lumens...

I built a machine with their most recent image yesterday and it didn't do this, but I can't say it wont be something coming in the future. But I do see that on April 26'th Microsoft added some new never before available (to me) options in the admin portal, so I really want to find a piece of...

We as gamers, know it's true, game developers, and journalists know it's true. It is 100% true, but Microsoft in their infinite wisdom seems to believe that Game Pass subscriptions will soar and this will be a bygone issue in due time. So at Microsoft, there are several very distinct camps about...

The other side of this is Game Pass itself is killing XBox game sales, there is a big internal fight over this at Microsoft currently because while subscription income is good and consistent it is flat and it is not covering the spread of game sales. So when a good game gets added to Game Pass...

You can but in my experience, I have seen those keys rotate from things you wouldn't expect such as drive firmware updates, Bios updates, and supposedly (I've never seen it myself) Windows updates. So if I had to enable it on my personal machine I would tie it to an online account, to be safe...

On a business or enterprise side, this would be a Nightmare to navigate for anybody not already using an MDM which most small and medium businesses aren't, on the enterprise side it would be relatively trivial as PCs are more often than not auto-enrolled into their chosen MDM before they even...

Here's the catch, there isn't a password exactly, I mean there is but only if you have your devices registered to an online account, otherwise you need to use a USB key... This seems like a gross overreach. I know Microsoft is desperate to get more subscribers and what not but this is too much...

People are broke, and there is now a subscription for everything. People are being forced to cut corners and turn to other avenues to get their content, which obviously (yarrr) isn't part of a subscription. Apple arcade growth is flat, Sony PlayStation's growth flat, Microsoft Game Pass flat...
