Microsoft announced today that the expected support for 64-bit x86 emulation on Windows on ARM devices has arrived, provided you are running Build 21277. You’ll need to be part of Microsoft’s Windows Insider program to test the build. Instructions for installing the software, provided you’re a member, are . According to Microsoft, when it launched Windows on ARM back in 2017, it made the most sense to focus on 32-bit x86 emulation support. Three years later, with more applications moving to 64-bit and customers have begun requesting 64-bit support, Microsoft thinks it makes more sense to add the feature.
Analysis firm IDC has released its report on the server market for Q3 2020, and it shows both AMD and ARM growing their share of the space over the past 12 months. Overall revenue for the quarter was $22.6B, up 2.2 percent since Q3 2019. This is a much smaller increase than we saw in Q2, when server shipments grew by 20 percent compared with Q2 2019. There’s some expectation that data center sales may be slow the next two quarters after companies stocked up to avoid shortages earlier in the pandemic. This may explain the huge surge in Q2 followed by much lower Q3 growth.
Seagate has designed a pair of custom RISC-V cores to be used in future products as next-generation storage controllers. The which are not referred to by any codename or brand, come in two flavors: A high-performance core and an area-optimized core. The high performance core has already been built “with RISC-V-enabled silicon,” while the smaller core “has been designed and is in the process of being built.” The phrase “RISC-V-enabled silicon” is a little odd — we wouldn’t normally say “ARM-enabled silicon” or “x86 enabled silicon,” but since they seem to go on to refer to tapeout and initial foundry work on the other chip, the most likely explanation is that Seagate has is qualifying its high-performance chip for future shipping products, while the area-optimized core is a few steps farther back in the process.

Cyberpunk 2077 launched this week, but if you’re stuck playing the game on the original Xbox or PS4, what you’ve seen in trailers doesn’t exactly reflect the game you’ll get if you pull the trigger. It’s a given that games sometimes have to adjust their visuals as they near release, in order to hit performance targets. Sometimes this can have a modest impact on final image quality, but the difference is rarely huge. In this case, the difference is enormous. As the clip below shows, playing the game on Xbox One or PS4 doesn’t just lower detail levels or simplify lighting — it looks like an entirely different, vastly uglier game.
If you’ve ever seen a video of an unsettlingly lifelike robot, it was probably a Boston Dynamics machine. The company just started selling its first product, the Spot quadruped robot. Owner SoftBank apparently feels this is the best time to unload the company, which it purchased from Google in 2017. Now, Hyundai Motor Company is . The history of Boston Dynamics reaches back 28 years to 1992 when engineer Marc Raibert spun the company off from an MIT project. For most of its history, Boston Dynamics did research and robotics work for the US military and DARPA, showing off incredible bots like the load-hauling Big Dog and the super-fast Cheetah.

Regulators across the US have been conducting investigations of big tech firms like Facebook, Google, and Amazon in recent years. Just a few weeks ago, the Department of Justice and several Attorneys General filed suit against Google. Now, Facebook is in the government’s sights — New York Attorney General Letitia James has , which will be joined by 47 other state and regional AGs. And that’s not all: the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is filing a separate case against Facebook later today. The state and federal cases are the outcomes of independent investigations, but the agencies will work in tandem going forward.
