- Have you spent your life searching for a petabit CD-ROM? Chinese scientists just built one. (Popular Science)
It stores data on 100 layers - each just one micron thick - using a 54nm ultraviolet laser, to deliver a total capacity of 125 terabytes on a single disk.
That's equivalent to 22 years of CD-quality uncompressed audio, 20,000 high-definition movies, just shy of a billion Apple II floppy disks, or two and a half copies of Windows 11.

- AMD's Radeon 7900 GRE is going global this week. (Tom's Hardware)
This cut-down model of the 7900 XT was announced back in August but has been hard to find outside of China. The new global availability also comes with a new official price tag, down from $649 to $549.
That's only $50 more than the 7800 XT, and it has 33% more graphics cores, so it might be worth a look.
- If you have an AT&T mobile phone you might be in for a payday after their recent outage. (CNN)

New BD drive I bought but haven't installed yet supports writing to these "M-DISC" things. 25 gig IIRC, and they're supposedly archival. I'm more interested in knowing if I can still play DVDs or Blue Rays using MPC-HC.
