事件:EcoFlow's new fourth-generation River series. The River 260 Gen4 features a 256Wh capacity battery while the 520 Gen4 packs in 512Wh - storing about 2.5x and 5x the energy of the largest airline-approved power banks, respectively. Better yet, the batteries are built using longer-lasting LFP chemistry that's far less volatile. The River 260 Gen4 features four USB ports, and 300W of max continuous output delivered out its lone AC jack.
事件:The Seattle Times and Newsday are just the latest plaintiffs to take OpenAI to court, alleging copyright infringement. The two outlets say the company used their journalism as training data for its AI models without permission and often reproduces passages from their reporting in response to user queries. This is similar to lawsuits filed by The New York Times, Ziff Davis, Merriam-Webster, and Encyclopedia Britannica against OpenAI. The Seattle Times and Newsday also named Microsoft as a defendant in the suit, since Copilot is built on OpenAI's technology. The publishers join a list of nearly 400 local newspapers that recently sued the two。
事件:2x R9700, 64 GB DDR5 is an absolute beast machine with vLLM Radiance / R9V and Qwen 3.8 27b and Flash next Reddit RSS hot topic I've been tinkering with local LLMs since the beginning of the year when I had an Intel Arc B580 and 32 GB of DDR5. Curiosity got the best of me and I bought the first R9700 about half a year ago, also because I wanted to upgrade my gaming graphics for 4k. As the 5090 was about 3 times as expensive, I had a "sweet spot", kind of. On the last prime days, I found a X870E mainboard for ~150 € below the standard price, and it got to my head that I can use an upgraded machine for gaming and local inference tinkering. Anyways. Fast forward to this week, I now have the following setup Ryzen 7500F 64 GB DDR5 CL40 6400 MT/s Asus ProArt Creator X870E 2x R9700 32 GB, each running at PCIe 5.0 x8 (Gigagbyte) Currently running ubuntu on an old Samsung EVO 860 1 TB drive; this will become intersting for the ngram / PLE offload; I have Windows and the gaming related stuff on a gen4 NVMe, but will soon add another Gen 5 NVMe with decent random reads The only issue that I can report so far is that one of the cards runs quite hot, so I will definitely implement power limiting to 210 W and some light undervolting. The other card runs 10-15 °C cooler.. Case is a purebase 501 with 4 fans, 2 intake in front, one back and top for output. Now long story short I wanted to give some results of Qwen 3.8 27b FP8 and MXFP4, as well as Qwen 3.8 flash next after the first day tinkering with it. What I found super interesting is that the SATA SSD does not seem to be super terrible when using Qwen 3.8 flash next. Considering the whole build costs ~4k €, or more than 1k less than a single RTX 5090 with 32 GB, I kinda like this setup price/performance wise. Next step is checking context degradation / KV quants. I am using local inference mostly for deep research, summarization, image creation, light coding and Cheers Qwen3.8 benchmarks on 2× Radeon AI PRO R9700 Hardware: 2× AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 32 GB, 61 GiB system RAM Benchmark: BetterBench 0.2.2, corpus v1.0, single-stream, greedy decoding, 2 warm-ups + 10 measured runs per category, 8k benchmark context.

事件:If you want to set up custom notifications in Windows 11 without turning to an app, the Task Scheduler is the utility you want. Type “task scheduler” into the search box on the taskbar or the Start menu, then select it when it appears. Open the Action menu, choose Create Basic Task , and then give it a suitable name and description so you can identify it later. Click Next , and you can set the frequency of the notification: Your options are Daily , Weekly , Monthly , One time , When the computer starts , When I log on , and When a specific event is logged , so there’s a lot of flexibility. Click Next again, and if you’ve chosen a recurring task then you can set exactly when it recurs—4 pm every afternoon, for example. Click Next , then choose Start a program , and select Next again. This opens up the dialog box screen for composing your notification. In the Program/script field, you need to enter “msg,” and in the Add arguments (optional) field, you put your actual notification text:。
事件:Boox teased the Picco , its take on the buzzy Xteink X4 e-reader, back in July, but provided almost no details. Now, thanks to some reporting out of IFA, we’ve got a bit more info, though sadly still no price. Unlike the Xteink devices, the Picco will not have magnets on the back for attaching to a phone. The 3.97-inch e-paper display, however, will be touchscreen, which The Verge’s Andrew Liszewski called a “welcome upgrade” on the X4 Pro . The Picco has physical page-turn buttons, and they can be customized with different actions for short and long presses.
事件:Six years ago Sony and Bose were in the middle of a noise-canceling battle, with each new model of headphones better than the last. In the fall of 2020, Sony released the WH-1000XM4 headphones to wide acclaim. They sat atop best headphones lists for years, thanks to their great sound, competitive ANC, and compact size, until they went out of stock. Now Sony has brought them back, with minor improvements, as the WH-1000XM4C.
