Before we go exploring the Go Drive, let’s take a look at the Company, VisionTek. This was not the same VisionTek that we used to know several years ago. I still have the Xtasy Personal Cinema from the old VisionTek running. VisionTek was acquired by Hartford Computer Group in December, 2002 and began partnering with ATI. Here, you find a bit more about the transition Interview with VisionTek.”

Hackers remotely turned supermarket freezers into ovens across Europe, ruining millions of euros worth of food

The ice cream aisle is melting, and this time a heatwave isn’t to blame.

Imagine walking into your local supermarket and finding the freezer aisle blowing hot air. That’s what happened at dozens of grocery stores across Europe last night, after hackers remotely cranked up the temperature of their fridges and freezers to a scorching 50°C (122°F).

What is happening?

Google’s next Googlebook could make your Android tablets feel outdated

Googlebooks are moving beyond traditional laptops, and the next one might look more like a tablet.

Googlebooks have only been around for a little over a month, but Google is already looking beyond traditional laptops. The company has confirmed that detachable Googlebooks are on the way, meaning we could soon see devices that work as both a tablet and a laptop without carrying two separate gadgets.

The announcement came during the Android Dev Summit 2026, where Google outlined its plans to expand the Googlebook lineup beyond the clamshell and convertible designs currently available. While the company hasn't revealed an official launch date or shown any hardware, an earlier leak suggests Lenovo could be the first manufacturer to bring one to market.

Meta is already working on its second-gen humanoid robot, but don’t expect it to land in homes anytime soon

Meta wants a robot to do your chores, but it still has to learn how to climb stairs

Fourier’s GR-3 humanoid robot, which the company unveiled in August 2025.

Meta appears to be getting serious about bringing artificial intelligence out of the screen and into the physical world. The company has built a humanoid robot prototype with Chinese robotics firm Fourier, and it is already developing a second-generation version. However, before anyone starts imagining a robot folding laundry or handling household chores, there is a fairly important caveat: this is still research and development, with no launch date in sight.

According to The Information, which cited people familiar with the project, Meta and Fourier built the prototype, internally called Max, in around three months. The roughly 48kg robot is part of Meta's broader ambition to develop humanoids that could eventually carry out everyday tasks in people's homes.
