The teardown surgeons at iFixIt did not mince any words when evaluating Apple’s fancy new AirPods Pro 3, calling the company’s latest-generation flagship earbuds “some of the most unrepairable and wasteful products you could possibly buy.” When all was said and done, the AirPods Pro 3 walked away with a dismal 0 out of 10 score for repairability.

One of the most infamous game glitches of all time is arguably the Minus World glitch in the original Super Mario Bros. on NES, which allowed gamers to access glitched levels not meant for end users.

NVIDIA has rapid-fire released a pair of GeForce GPU drivers in quick succession, including a regularly scheduled ‘Game Ready’ driver (version 581.42) that is optimized for Battlefield 6, and an out-of-band hotfix driver (version 581.47) to stomp out an odd bug that is crashing games in some specific instances.

Intel’s graphics division has been busy shaking up its driver strategy over the past month, and the news cuts both ways.

AMD’s chiplet architecture has not really changed in a fundamental way since the introduction of the Ryzen 3000 processors based on the Zen 2 architecture back in 2019.
