AMD Plans to Integrate Several New Controls On OverDrive Overclocking Tool, Allowing Linux Users to Maximize RDNA GPU Performance
AMD's OverDrive feature has been on Linux for quite some time now, but when it comes to the overclocking capabilities, the feature is much inferior compared to its Windows counterpart. However, the AMD OverDrive might get an upgrade on Linux, given that Team Red is dedicated to improving its resources on the platform.
This type of software is primarily used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs), backbone providers, large intranets and enterprises. Web caches are very versatile, and are used in a number of different systems such as search engines, web proxies, and forward caches.
In this article, we feature the best software that caches web content, optimizing and cleaning the network traffic. The ratings chart below gives our verdict. Only free and open source software is eligible for inclusion. Hopefully, there will be something of interest here for anyone who needs to reduce bandwidth usage, improve latency, and minimise server load.
It isn't as intuitive as a user interface, but it is more powerful.

When we say vintage video game, some of you may think of the likes of Lemmings, Mario or maybe even Donkey Kong but the game that [Vintage Apparatus] restored is slightly older and much more minimalist, using an LED matrix and some 7-segment displays rather than this newfangled color CRT thing.
However, rather than kick OpenELA for being a tired resurrection of UnitedLinux, it’s worth looking deeper into when collective open source efforts do work. Why will OpenELA fail but Kubernetes didn’t? What about OpenTF, an effort to reverse HashiCorp’s decision to change its license for Terraform to the Business Software License (BSL)? The key in each case is to follow the money, especially the cloud money.
The latest version of the flagship FOSS browser is out, and it's picked up one of the main features for which we keep Chrome around.
The Firefox version 117 feature list might not look all that impressive, but it does have a big-ticket feature that may tempt people back: automatic translation. The snag is it's disabled by default in the release version, and you'll have to manually enable it. Although it was enabled in the betas, Mozilla has decided to go for a staged rollout and not enable it for everyone until Firefox 118 in six weeks or so.
The new feature is integrated, privacy-respecting machine translation between multiple languages. This was already possible in older versions, but it needed an extension, and that had two side effects. One is that the extension hooked deep into the core of the browser in ways that Mozilla wasn't comfortable about, and the other is that once your text had been sent out to a third-party website, it could be snooped upon – but the victims of any snooping would blame the browser, even if it wasn't the browser's fault.
Most noise-blocking headphones fall into two categories: they use some kind of material to absorb or scatter noise, or they use active cancellation that creates a signal to oppose the noise signal. As you’ve probably noticed, both of these approaches have limitations. Now, Swiss scientists think they have a new method that will work better. In Nature Communications, they describe a noise cancellation system that moves air by using ionization instead of a conventional transducer.
In case you’ve ever wondered how the South Pole research stations are powered, then a recent blog post, South Pole Electrical Infrastructure by anonymous IT engineer [brr] is for you. Among the many issues covered, let’s look at how the electricity is made and, spoiler alert, how the specially formulated AN8 fuel blend is transported to the generators.

Open source is a blessing. It's also a curse when we don't take its security seriously. Now, the OpenSSF wants us all to take a long, hard look at how we consume and secure open-source software.
Decades ago, Eric S. Raymond, one of open-source's founders, famously coined Linus's Law: "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow." Makes you feel warm and fuzzy about open-source security, doesn't it? There's a corollary, though. For Linus's Law to work, you need expert eyeballs hunting and hands fixing bugs. Recently, we've been forced to realize we've been flopping at enforcing the law. The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF), with its new working group proclamation, the Open Source Consumption Manifesto (OSCM), wants to prosecute it.
Cryptojackers knew long ago that stealing cloud resources for cryptomining is far more profitable than paying for their own cryptomining rigs. For example, cloud security company Sysdig recently found that TeamTNT, a notorious cryptojacking group, mined over $8,100 worth of cryptocurrency from hijacked cloud infrastructure at a cost to their victims of more than $430,000. TeamTNT made a buck at a cost to their targets of $53.
Ouch.
It gets much worse, according to other analyses. According to the Google Cybersecurity Action Team (GCAT) September 2022 Threat Horizons Report, a staggering 65% of cloud accounts compromised suffered cryptocurrency mining. A single attack can inflict unauthorized compute costs of hundreds of thousands of dollars within mere days.

A company that makes a chastity device for people with a penis that can be controlled by a partner over the internet exposed users’ email addresses, plaintext passwords, home addresses and IP addresses, and — in some cases — GPS coordinates, due to several flaws in its servers, according to a security researcher.
The researcher, who asked to remain anonymous because he wanted to separate his professional life from the kink-related work he does, said he gained access to a database containing records of more than 10,000 users, thanks to two vulnerabilities. The researcher said he exploited the bugs to see what data he could get access to. He also reached out to the company on June 17 alerting them of the issues in an attempt to get them to fix the vulnerabilities and protect their users’ data, according to a screenshot of the email he sent and shared with TechCrunch.
As of publication, the company has yet to fix the vulnerabilities, and did not respond to repeated requests for comment from TechCrunch.
In a website notice dated September 1, NMHS explains that on July 3, they discovered unauthorized access through an employee’s email account after a phishing email was unintentionally opened.
“Our Security Operation Committee (SOC) promptly shut down the system, ending the unauthorized access within 17 minutes. Upon investigation, it was determined some of the employee’s emails, which may have included attachments, were potentially accessed.,” they write.
In July, DataBreaches reported a data breach involving the plastic surgery practice of Gary Motykie, M.D. The incident, which appeared to be a hack with an extortion demand, had been reported to the Maine Attorney General’s Office, but an upset patient had also contacted NBC News in Los Angeles to reveal that a leak site had been created that was exposing nude photos of named patients with their full medical records. The identity of the attackers was not revealed, but the leak site included what appeared to be personal and explicit sex videos and pictures involving Dr. Motykie. Other videos, also sensitive and explicit in content, appeared to involve Dr. Motykie’s brother and the brother’s girlfriend in private moments.
This has not been a great year for Australian citizens whose personal information has been compromised in a number of cyberattacks. Although DataBreaches regrets being the bearer of more bad news for them, more than one million customers of Pizza Hut Australia appear to have had their data acquired by ShinyHunters.
According to “Shiny” (@shinycorp), the group gained access 1-2 months ago via Amazon Web Services (AWS) using multiple entry points. They claim to have exfiltrated more than 30 million records with customers’ orders as well as information on more than 1 million customers.
Shiny states that they were never detected during the attack.

Well, that was quick. We had just been discussing the encouraging news that Rockstar had scooped up Cfx.re, a community dedicated to roleplaying within GTA and Red Dead Redemption games, as well as several mods made within that community. The only thing that made this newsworthy at all is that Rockstar has had an awful reputation when it comes to modding communities for its games. In that post, I highlighted the welcome change of the embrace of these mods and wondered aloud if this meant there had been a culture shift at Rockstar towards embracing more of these communities.
