AMD has introduced Variable Graphics Memory (VGM), a feature that allows users to dynamically allocate up to 75% of their system memory as dedicated video RAM. This is achieved by tapping a button in AMD’s desktop Adrenalin app, making it easy to reroute power without diving into the BIOS. Currently available for AMD AI “Strix … Read more
Researchers have developed a revolutionary nanomaterial that can transform the way we visualize fingerprints, making it easier to identify individuals. The new material, created by combining mesoporous silica nanoparticles with chitosan and dansylglycine, has special properties that make it adhere well to fingerprint residues, even old ones. This breakthrough could greatly aid in forensic investigations, … Read more

A 4.7 magnitude earthquake struck the Malibu area on Thursday, marking the 14th sequence of earthquakes with a magnitude of 4.0 or higher in Southern California this year – the most since 1988. Dr. Allen Husker, a seismologist at Caltech, said that while smaller earthquakes may not necessarily reduce the odds of a big one, … Read more
Researchers at the Department of Physics at Chalmers University of Technology have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of photonics. They have successfully combined two major research fields – nonlinear and high-index nanophotonics – into a single disk-like nanoobject. This unique nanodisk is capable of converting light frequency through its crystal’s non-linearity, making it … Read more
Researchers from the University of Oxford and NTU Singapore have discovered a new process called nucleophagy that helps cells repair damaged DNA. This finding is particularly relevant for patients undergoing colorectal cancer treatments. The team, reporting in the journal Cell, found that this natural cellular cleaning mechanism involves a protein called TEX264. In response to … Read more
