Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is big enough to justify its price tag

When I played an hour ofPrince of Persia: The Lost Crownearlier this summer, I thought I had a good handle on what to expect. I figured it would be a standard eight-hour Metroidvania that went heavier on combat and exploration than storytelling. I figured it would be a smaller release for Ubisoft, giving us a reprieve from its massive open-world games. Boy, was I wrong.

Cybersecurity researchers at F-Secure discovered a weakness in the firmware of most modern computers could allow hackers access to encryption keys and other sensitive data. Access to sensitive data is gained through a 2008-style cold boot attack, where the hacker forces a computer to restart without going through the normal shutdown process. The computer’s data is briefly accessible in the RAM after power is lost, but many modern devices overwrite the RAM to prevent unauthorized access to data during this type of attack....

The difference between diesel- and gasoline-powered cars

Have you always wondered what separates a diesel-powered car from a gasoline-powered one? For starters, you’ll never need to change a diesel engine’s spark plugs or a gasoline engine’s glow plugs. Both technologies are similar in the sense that they ignite a fuel inside cylinders to create horsepower and torque — however, there are also major differences in how the two types of vehicles work. That’s why you can’t fill up a diesel with gasoline (or vice versa) without causing expensive damage to your engine — or, in some cases, completely destroying it....
