ABIT DigiDice Barebone Review

By Ian Bell Published March 28, 2004

Quote from the review at Digit-Life:

“When ABIT announced its entering the SFF (Small Form Factor) PC market (at the end of summer of 2003), the first published information caused a lot of dispute. The support for two 5.25″ devices, two hard drives and two PCI expansion cards was taken as manna from heaven or as an arrival of an antichrist into the SFF market. Soltek added a second 5″ bay to the Shuttle-like models, and now ABIT adds a second PCI slot… as a result, DigiDice is twice bigger than any Shuttle XPC in the G2 case. Plus a mysterious screen (for that moment) on the front panel, which appeared after the announcement of MSI Mega PC, i.e. we can expect incredible functionality.”

Arc browser is shutting down in December. Long live, ya trailblazer!

The browser that revolutionizes tab management is finally riding into the sunset.

Arc browser is shutting down on December 22, following a long spell of maintenance-only work as the company behind it moves forward with its successor, Dia. Earlier today, The Browser Company announced that the beloved web browser will ride into the sunset in two months, but will continue development of the Dia browser.

"That's not an easy sentence to write. We spent years building Arc and celebrating each and every release along the way: we have so much pride and love for what we made alongside the Arc community," says the company.

1Password wants AI agents to handle logins without ever taking a peek at your passwords

1Password is expanding its secure login system to Muse, Claude Duet, Dots, ChatGPT Work, and more.

The next chapter of AI is knocking on our doors, as AI agents like Meta Muse, OpenAI Dots, Gemini Spark, among others, are becoming mainstream, and they are genuinely quite useful for a lot of things, ranging from being your personal assistant all the way to helping you manage a small business. However, many are still quite hesitant about giving these agents access to your accounts and their sensitive credentials.

1Password thinks it has a fix for that trust problem. Its new 1Password for Agents platform lets AI agents sign in to your accounts without ever seeing or storing the passwords, sensitive information, or other credentials they need.

AI chatbots are falling prey to manipulative prompts that could help stalkers spy on victims

Confident answers, dangerous gaps: why survivors need humans first.

Chatbots have one talent I can't stop noticing: they sound sure, even when they're wrong. Usually, that's merely annoying. When someone's safety is on the line, it's dangerous.

A new NYU Tandon study tested four AI chatbots on real questions about being stalked or controlled through devices, and experts rated 86% of replies inaccurate, incomplete, or unsafe (via NYU Tandon).
