We have received reports @HyperDbg's latest release shows unexpected behavior. As it turns out, this is due to a compiler optimization bug in Visual Studio 17.14.8 and 17.14.9. We have pushed a temporary workaround fixing the build. Thanks for reporting! (1/2)

Apparently this issue is affecting others too. As we can't revert to older GH runner image versions, we will temporarily publish unoptimized release builds until MS pushes a fixed runner image. teapaw.org/rpcs3/status/194606920… github.com/actions/runner/is… (2/2)
Visual Studio 17.14.X compiler versions introduced a compiler optimisation bug, causing severe issues on RPCS3 such as missing game audio. 17.14.9 fixes it - we expect this version to be available on GitHub next week. This is why there have been no builds for the last 4 weeks.

If you use a Thunderbolt dock and your system ships Kernel DMA Protection, you might want to wait upgrading to Win 10 2004 for now: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/win…

This has been a long time coming. Today we release Thunderspy. Find full details at thunderspy.io. Thanks to @a_greenberg for reporting. #Thunderspy #Intel #Thunderbolt
Dutch researcher @0Xiphorushas has detailed a new physical access technique that could let hackers break into any of millions of PCs via their Thunderbolt ports. The good news is it requires unscrewing the case briefly. The bad news is it's unpatchable. wired.com/story/thunderspy-t…

Replying to @DellCares
@DellCares Is it possible to get a refund for the Windows license bundled with my #XPS 15 9570? I won't be using it, and unlike XPS 13, there sadly seemed to be no option to order it with #Ubuntu.
