Portable 40mm launcher kills drones by firing 6.5-feet-long steel chains at 80 m/s — German researchers' low-tech mechanical 'bola' outshines textile drops quadcopters without lasers or EMPs The concept draws on the same physics as the bola, a weighted throwing weapon used for centuries by South American herders. https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/german-researchers-propose-firing-chains-at-drones-as-a-low-tech-defense-system #Tech #Technology #TechNews #AI #Gadgets #Software #Cybersecurity #Apple #Google #Microsoft #Startup #OpenSource #TomsHardware [Tom's Hardware]

AI isn't just hungry for GPUs anymore — it's eating CPUs too. In 2026, server CPU lead times have stretched up to a year, prices are up 20%, and both Intel and AMD are sold out. The culprit? The shift from AI training to real-time agentic AI, which is pushing CPU-to-GPU ratios from 1:8 toward 1:1 in data centers. If you're managing IT assets, this changes your buying AND selling calculus. We break down what's driving the crunch, what's coming next (hint: Nova Lake and Zen 6 are both delayed to 2027), and how to turn the shortage to your advantage. https://www.buysellram.com/blog/why-ai-is-causing-a-global-cpu-shortage-and-what-it-means-for-your-business/ #ServerCPU #CPUShortage #AIInfrastructure #Intel #AMD #ITAD #DataCenter #ITAssetManagement #TechNews #EnterpriseIT #CPUPrices2026 #AgenticAI #technology

From a hardware success like the Apple Watch to a big swing that missed, here are six things from the Cook era that stand out to Cunningham: https://flip.it/y8YnGw #Tech #Apple #TimCook #Technology #Business #TechNews
