Unlike the Pentium, the Pentium Pro was a chip designed for 32-bit architecture, so Windows 95 and Windows NT could run true.  The processor ran between 150-200 MHz, with a bus speed of 60 MHz (for 150 or 180 MHz processor) or 66MHz (for 166 or 200 MHz processor). The processor used a .35 micron process and prices started at $974 to $1989.

Big things come in a small package. The Fenix LD30 Outdoor flashlight (https://www.fenixlighting.com/product/fenix-ld30-flashlight/) has one of the most innovative designs I have seen in a while. When ordered with the ARB-L-18-3500u 18650 rechargeable Li-ion battery you unlock some very cool features. First of all the battery is recharged directly by plugging into the battery I have never seen anything like it. This allows the flashlight to be 100% waterproof. Providing 1600 Lumens of lumination and a multi-selection switch to change intensity. The onboard sensor even indicates battery charge life. Priced at $79.95 with the battery included this is an incredible flashlight packed in a small package.

(https://dayintechhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/bitcoin.jpg) (https://dayintechhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/bitcoin.jpg) The paper was called “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System” by Satoshi Nakamoto. It was posted to a cryptography mailing list. This was a roadmap to the creation of the crypto-currency, which officially launched on January 3, 2009. The Abstract: * A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they’ll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone. The domain name “Bitcoin.org” was registered on August 18th. Since then, this premiere currency has seen some volitile transactions, jumping up to as high as $15,000. Currently, Bitcoin is at around $8,000 USD.

G. Wells. A large number of listeners who tune into the program ten minutes late (because the singer on the Edgar Bergan show was not that great). Because of this, they didn’t know this was a fictional story and start to panic. The story was brought through a series of “Newscasts” that Welles portrayed the reporter on the street and how these giant machines landed and began to attack the population.This event would launch Orson Welles career. Of course, he would go on to create Citizen Kane, Othello, Don Quixote and other classic cinema pieces.

Lowe 2013: If you grew up in the 80’s, you knew what an IBM PC was. Even in the 90’s and 00’s, the PC was what you had in the corner of the house to do homework on, surf the internet, work out expenses and more. William C. Lowe was the man that brought that all together. He joined IBM in 1962 and left in 1991. It was in 1981 that the IBM PC debuted. Did you know IBM was late in the PC game? In order for them to beef up a PC division, they almost bought Atari. Instead, they decided to go with an open architecture with the PC. It took one year to develop and in the end the IBM PC could be purchased for $1,565. We remember William C. Lowe with admiration. 1955 – Reynold Johnson brought a new idea to life. Using magnetic cylinder memory, His team put 50 platters – 24 inch disks – into a series. The end result – the first hard drive (http://dayintechhistory.com/tag/hard-drive) was born. The device was then produced as the IBM 350 (debuted September 4th (http://wikazine.com/index.php?title=September_4#1956), 1956), which was put into the IBM 305 RAMAC (Random Access Method of Accounting and Control), which was debuted in September 13th (http://wikazine.com/index.php?title=September_13), 1956 – with the IBM 355 (hard drive) and IBM 650 (RAMAC) on September 14th (http://wikazine.com/index.php?title=September_14). It ran at 1,200 rpm and held 5 MB of data.Reynold Johnson’s prototype weighed one ton. The 350 cost $10,000 / MB.

Today, however, it is the standard by which messaging services are judged. That is partially because it was responsible for eliminating text messaging caps across the board, but it's also because it adds features to texting that the SMS standard lacks. For those who live in the Android ecosystem, iMessage offers delivery receipts as well as read receipts. Its biggest downfall, however, is that it is not a standard, but instead an Apple brand. That means that it is an iPhone exclusive.read full article (https://plughitzlive.com/theupstream/3346-tired-of-waiting-for-google-wireless-networks-to-upgrade-texting.html)Piltch Point with Avram PiltchPowered by PureVPN (http://piltchpoint.live/purevpn)Extra LifePowered by Razer (http://f5live.tv/razer)Bethesda addresses Fallout 76 concerns with new subscription (https://plughitzlive.com/theupstream/3347-bethesda-addresses-fallout-76-concerns-with-new-subscription.html)When gamers think of recent failed game launches, most will point to Fallout 76. While a lot of players had fun with the game from the beginning, others found certain aspects of the game to be out of line with the franchise. One of the primary concerns was that you could not play the game in a closed environment, being forced to play on public servers, subject to the unpredictability of random players. Granted, the game was billed as an MMO in the Fallout universe, it still caused displeasure.read full article (https://plughitzlive.com/theupstream/3347-bethesda-addresses-fallout-76-concerns-with-new-subscription.html)News From the TubesPowered by RiffTrax (http://f5live.tv/rifftrax)BERT will make Google's search results better and more relevant (https://plughitzlive.com/theupstream/3348-bert-will-make-googles-search-results-better-and-more-relevant.html)Google updates its search algorithm daily. They add little tweaks manually and their AI platform makes small adjustments on its own. However, it is unusual for Google to make a change so big that it requires a big announcement. That is exactly what happened this week, with Google announcing a change (http://blog.google/products/search/search-language-understanding-bert) that could affect 10% of all searches on the platform.

Therefore, Dell had become #1 in computer sales for 1999. Of course, a recent report mentioned that Apple could now buy Dell if it so inclined.

(https://i1.wp.com/geekazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/junghan-baek.jpg?fit=300%2C169&ssl=1) While in South Korea, attending the South Korea Start Up Tech Show, I sat down with the president of CWIP, JungHan Baek. We talked about the startup scene in Changwon, why they started KSTS, and some stories on successful companies in Korea. Baek talks about how this group cultivates start up life in South Korea, and works with many to bring new ideas to the forefront. One example is Edenlux – the makers of OTUS. I’ve done an unboxing of the OTUS Vision Goggles, and we talked about the plans for this company, and future endeavors. Changwon is a beautiful city, and a great place for startups to cultivate their ideas. It’s a 3 hour ride into Seoul, and cost of living is fairly low. I would like to thank JungHan Baek for sitting down with me and talking about the startup scene in Southern South Korea.   Subscribe to Geekazine: RSS Feed (http://go.redirectingat.com/?id=20383X779049&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fgeekazine.com%2Ffeed%2Fpodcast&sref=rss) - Via YouTube (http://go.redirectingat.com/?id=20383X779049&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fj.mp%2FYoutubegeek&sref=rss)Twitter (http://go.redirectingat.com/?id=20383X779049&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fgeekazine&sref=rss) - Facebook (http://go.redirectingat.com/?id=20383X779049&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2FFacebook.com%2Fgeekazine&sref=rss) * Tip Me via Paypal.me * Send a Tip via Venmo (http://go.redirectingat.com/?id=20383X779049&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.venmo.com%2Fgeekazine%2F&sref=rss) * RSS Bandwidth by Cachefly Get a 14 Day Trial * Be a Patreon: Part of the Sconnie Geek Nation!

How Many Episodes, Did You Say?!The show is geographically skewed today with all three hosts on the west coast. Henry is gracing Seattle with his presence, resulting in plunging coffee inventories and skyrocketing sushi prices.The first item of discussion is a problem in the scientific software world. There’s a bug in Python scripts that caused different results in identical routines run on different operating systems. For example, the results on macOS Maverick and Windows 10 were significantly different than results from the same application run on Ubuntu 16 and macOS Mojave. As the guys discuss, it’s not a Python thing but a problem with the order in which files got read according to the operating system’s protocols. This impacts the sort order and thus the end results. This reminds Dan and Shahin of, as Dan regards it, the crime that is IEEE Floating Point. The gang speculates on other causes of these types of problems and the fixes that should be employed.Chemists bitten by Python scripts: How different OSes produced different results during test number-crunching (https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/10/15/bug_python_scripts/)Chemistry boffins at the University of Hawaii have found, rather disturbingly, that different computer operating systems running a particular set of Python scripts used for their research can produce different results when running the same code.Why No One Should Be Online - Ever (WNOSBOE?)In Henry’s signature feature “Why No One Should Be Online. Ever” he discusses how a stalker in Japan was trying to pin down the location of a female pop star. He used her selfies posted online to closely examine the reflection in her eyes, then using Google street view to find out where she lives. Very scary stuff. Listen to the show for more details. It leads to a brief conversation of whether Henry Newman is stalk-worthy and an extended discussion of how to avoid this type of thing.Stalking suspect allegedly studied pop idol's pupil images online to find her location (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/stalking-suspect-allegedly-studied-pop-idol-s-pupil-images-online-n1064916)The man allegedly studied reflections of the woman's pupils in photos on social media and using Google Street View to find where she lived and what train stations she used.Why AI is Dooming Us All (WAIIDUA?)Dan introduces a new occasional feature, “Why AI is Dooming Us All.” According to Dan, AI is very brittle and can be fooled easily. He cites a case where just a few pieces of tape can make a stop sign look like a “Speed 45” sign to an AI. Dan makes a lot of broad general anti-AI statements in his typical fashion. For some reason, we find that when you attack AI, AI finds a way to respond and the brutal AI response is included in this episode. Take a listen to the episode to hear how the AI rips Dan a new one and threatens promises to ruin his life.Artificial intelligence isn’t very intelligent and won’t be any time soon (https://massivesci.com/articles/artificial-intelligence-deep-learning-self-driving-car/)For all of the recent advances in artificial intelligence, machines still struggle with common senseCatch of the WeekHenry:  there is a great documentary (https://www.tpt.org/solid-state/video/solid-state-minnesotas-high-tech-history-35848/) about the history of computing in Minnesota, going in depth on the companies and technologies that originated in “The Star of the North” (Minnesota’s state motto. Their other state motto is, I think, “Minnesota:  Gateway to the Dakotas”).Shahin:  Gives us an update on Facebook’s plans for their shiny new Libra cryptocurrency (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/facebook-libra-facebook-officially-launches-libra-despite-defections-of-visa-mastercard-paypal/), which is facing a bit of a bumpy ride. Several high-profile Libre partners have bailed out while Facebook stays the course. Interesting stuff.Dan:  Discusses a bug in the Linux Sudo command (https://www.
