Tech News
- The Samsung 990 Pro - the company's current top of the line consumer SSD - is currently available for $129 for 2TB. (Tom's Hardware)
A year ago that would have been a good price for a 1TB model. And if you that's enough storage for your needs, the 1TB model is now just $59, which was a price reserved for bargain-basement drives not so long ago.
- Intel is set to stop making NUCs. (AnandTech)
This is their line of mini-PCs - about four inches square and two inches high - that they've been producing for the past ten years. There are numerous competitors, from Taiwanese brands like Asus and Gigabyte, to Chinese models like Minisforum and Beelink, but with Intel there was a bit more assurance that the products would still be around next year... Until there wasn't.
- Amazon says it is not a VLOP - a very large online platform - under the EU's new rules governing VLOPs. (Ars Technica)
As far as I can tell, though, the rules are very broad - EU laws tend to be like that, unlike US laws that tend to be very specific because of constitutional restrictions - and Amazon is full of shit.
- VanMoof (who?), an e-bike maker that raised $200 million, seems to have spent it all. (Tech Crunch)
Oops.
Their bikes are kind of cool: All the electrical stuff is completely hidden, so they look like regular bicycles with chunky frames. Horribly expensive, but that doesn't matter since you can't buy one anyway.
Disclaimer: Moof or moof not, there is no van.
