Today marks the 30th anniversary of Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 becoming available on August 24, 1996. Windows NT 4.0, codenamed “Tukwila,” went on retail sale exactly 30 years ago. This was the version that started to deliver on the promise of Microsoft’s long-running Windows NT project. NT 4 married the very solid NT operating system with a slightly modified version of the Windows Explorer desktop from Windows 95, which is why it was also internally known as the “Shell Update Release”. NT 4 had been released to manufacturing on July 31. As it happens, Windows 95 itself was launched exactly one year earlier, on August 24, 1995. Codenamed “Chicago” and originally planned to be called “Windows 4”, Windows 95 went through a long, iterative development process during which the desktop shell changed dramatically. Various unfinished versions leaked over the years, and the excellent ToastyTech has screenshot tours of Windows Chicago Build 58 and Build 73 in which you can see the UI taking shape. In early versions, programs didn’t minimize to the taskbar yet, and the prototype Start Button didn’t do much. By 31 years ago, the Explorer desktop had come together enough to launch. Explorer had some missteps. For instance, Windows 95 had no web browser; that was a paid-for optional extra in the Windows 95 Plus! Pack, along with Space Cadet Pinball. Instead, Windows 95 had a desktop icon for the Microsoft Network (MSN), a dial-up social network that displayed forums and participant lists using desktop file-explorer style windows, in an effort to blur the lines between local and remote resources. Some of the features of the Explorer desktop were to avoid stepping on Apple’s toes – it had already sued Digital Research over the quite Mac-like GEM Desktop. So, Windows 95 didn’t have drive icons on the desktop – they lived inside a virtual folder called “My Computer” instead. Another virtual folder, “Network Neighborhood”, showed visible file servers and let the user browse for share volumes using the Explorer UI. The whole Explorer desktop lived in a single Windows process: so, if you started a long file operation, such as copying files to an external drive, you couldn’t do anything else. The whole desktop locked up for as long as the dialog box with the progress bar was visible. For one awkward year, Microsoft’s two separate and independent OS product lines had very different UIs. The first release of Windows NT was called “Windows NT 3.1”, keeping it in harmony with the existing DOS-based Windows 3.1. For a first release, it was remarkably stable and reliable, but it required a formidable PC for 1993. The youthful Reg FOSS desk deployed it in production in the City of London, and to be even vaguely usable it needed a Pentium CPU and a whopping 16 MB of RAM – at the time, that meant a PC costing over £5,000 (£11,000 or $15,000 in 2026). This was followed by NT 3.5, which tightened up the code a bit and introduced the ability to store long filenames on FAT drives. Then came NT 3.51, which was smaller, faster, even more reliable, and also supported PCMCIA cards, file compression on NTFS, and hardware-accelerated OpenGL. But all NT 3.x versions still had the old-fashioned GUI from Windows 3 and OS/2 1.x, with a separate “Program Manager” for launching programs and “File Manager” for handling media. After Windows 95, this suddenly looked very dated. This vulture ran it at work, and it was rock-solid and quick once we manually defined a few hotkeys for launching applications. (We used Ctrl+Alt+W for Word, Ctrl+Alt+E for Excel, Ctrl+Alt+F for File Manager, and Ctrl+Alt+D for a Command Prompt – which still used the old MS-DOS icon. “D” for DOS, you see, even if it didn’t involve actual DOS at any point.) Windows NT 4 fixed this: a small team ported the Explorer UI from Windows 95 over to the NT kernel, although not without some effort thanks to NT’s native Unicode support. The Explorer got a few adjustments: rather than storing the Start menu entries in a single folder tree with shortcuts, it merged two trees, one for the current user and one containing entries from the global “All Users” tree. This gave users with a high-end PC the best of both worlds: the stable and reliable NT OS, plus the fancy modern Explorer desktop. At the time, Windows 95 was still on its first release. So, it only supported the 16-bit version of the FAT filesystem, compared to which NT’s fancy journaling NTFS was much more resistant to corruption. If you had the high-end hardware on which to run it, NT 4 was a very strong proposition: modern UI combined with modern kernel and modern filesystem. It was not without flaws. To improve the responsiveness of the new desktop, Microsoft chose to move NT’s 2D graphics rendering subsystem, the Graphics Device Interface or GDI, directly into the Windows kernel for improved performance. This eliminated an elegant aspect of the NT 3.x design, and meant that a bug in a display driver could crash the OS, introducing issues that would persist for over a decade, until the release of Windows Vista in 2007. NT 4 also didn’t include the long-promised Cairo object-based filesystem – that never shipped, although its user interface influenced the Explorer design. NT 4 also started to date quickly. The next few releases of the DOS-based Windows family rapidly added support for several handy new tech innovations. Less than a week after the release of NT 4.0, Windows 95B, AKA “OEM Service Release 2” or OSR2, introduced FAT32. A year later, Windows 95 OSR 2.1 added support for the new USB interface. NT 4 never got those things – or at least, not official versions from Microsoft. Its Plug ’n Play support remained all but nonexistent until it was replaced by NT 5, marketed as “Windows 2000”. Even so, NT 4 was more than good enough. It combined a solid OS core, rich server functionality, and a friendly GUI. Thirty years ago, Windows NT started to deliver on its promise. It was the beginning of the end for Novell NetWare. It also compounded Apple’s technological difficulties, leading to the company acquiring Steve Jobs’ NeXT Computer four months later. ®

A YouTuber on a mission to liberate semiconductor manufacturing from the grip of multinational megacorporations is back with a new round of DIY success, this time manufacturing working LEDs in his backyard fab. Dr. Semiconductor, also known as semiconductor engineer Dr. Matthew Hartensveld, per his recently launched website, first caught the internet’s attention five months ago when he built a class-100 cleanroom in a shed in his backyard. Back in April, we wrote about his successful project to build his own DRAM in the clean shed, and the video he posted over the weekend on building his own LEDs follows that project with more ingenious success. Hartensveld’s decision to construct his own LEDs is directly connected to his RAMbitions, mind you - this isn’t some side project to light stuff up for fun. As Hartensveld notes in the video’s introduction, working DRAM cells are great, but they’re a far cry from functional DDR5 chips that can be plugged into a computer in lieu of ever-costlier chips from a major manufacturer. Turning cells into a RAM chip requires a lot more fabrication and packaging work, but there’s a problem there: attaching a finished silicon die to a circuit board requires lining up a whole bunch of tiny contacts with corresponding pads on the board. Because silicon is opaque to visible light, it takes more work to get everything aligned correctly. Enter LEDs made with gallium nitride (GaN): GaN is transparent, and LEDs still have to be attached to a circuit board to provide them with power, making them the perfect test bed for home packaging experimentation. “Not only does gallium nitride LED material help us develop our packaging process, it also helps us make some RGB,” Hartensveld said in the video. “And everyone knows RGB makes RAM faster … at least emotionally.” Etching GaN into LEDs traditionally requires the use of hazardous chlorine gases, which Hartensveld said in his video made it impractical and unsafe for his purposes - not to mention ridiculously expensive to either build or acquire the equipment necessary to do it safely. He instead decided to go with a laser etcher, using a 355 nm ultraviolet wavelength that GaN absorbs. After testing the laser etching process and finding it successful, Hartensveld moved on to a more traditional LED production flow, adding p-type contacts that supply positive charge and n-type contacts that supply negative charge using a typical process of applying photoresist and using metal deposition to fabricate his diodes. A bit of indium added to the etched GaN and supplied with power showed that the process worked, emitting the blue light expected from the InGaN quantum wells. From there, Hartensveld was able to add indium bumps to an ENIG-finished circuit board, which he used to attach the LED to the board. Because the LED itself is transparent, Hartensveld was able to show in the video how the indium contacts melted and formed a bond to the LED. Supplying power to the circuit board itself led to the same bluish light. Hartensveld also succeeded in changing the color of his LEDs to emit a warmer white light by covering them in the same yellowish material that is found covering the LEDs of most commercially available LED lightbulbs: Cerium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet. In other words, the project was a smashing success, not only for the democratization of LED manufacturing but also for his future efforts to build working RAM modules. “Going forward we can leverage our newfound packaging ability for RAM or really anything,” Hartensveld said in the video. He hasn't applied the new method to RAM module manufacturing yet, and while Hartensveld tells The Register he intends to do so soon, he has some additional work to do before he gets there. "The next step is shrinking both the transistor and, more importantly, the capacitor so I can increase the density and start experimenting with some of the techniques used in more modern commercial DRAM," Hartensveld said in an email. After shrinking comes scale, naturally. "As the features get smaller, alignment, process control, yield, interconnects and packaging all become much more difficult," The semiconductor doc added. "That's really what makes this interesting to me, figuring out how much of modern semiconductor fabrication can be reproduced with simpler, lower-cost equipment and processes." Chip democratization dreams While Hartensveld’s early work has been confined to a trio of YouTube videos, it appears he intends to go considerably further with his work. “Semiconductor fabrication is treated as something only billion-dollar fabs can do. It isn't,” he states in the about section of his website, semiconductor.diy. “A Class 100 cleanroom fits in a garden shed, sub-micron lithography can run on a modified microscope, and working devices can be made at home. This site documents how, openly, so anyone can build on it.” Hartensveld added in the video that he is working on open-source documentation for his entire process; bills of materials and instructions for his cleanroom shed and the LED project are already included on the site. The YouTuber also said that he’s planning to release videos on a more regular basis now that he has sponsorship from Vensa, a nonprofit backed by Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin dedicated to the development of open-source silicon. “Microchips are the foundational technology for modern civilization, but making them is out of reach for most,” Vensa says of its project on its about page. “'Open Silicon' holds the most promise for democratizing chip design and improving the safety and sovereignty of computers.” LEDs made in a garden shed are just the first step. "I don't expect a shed fab to replace a billion-dollar commercial semiconductor fab, but I do think there is a huge unexplored space between 'you can design a chip' and 'you need access to an industrial foundry to actually make one,'" Hartensveld told us. He added that he hopes his work will give students, researchers, startups, and hobbyists the ability to experiment with semiconductor fabrication and make their own devices, making the process more accessible. "Democratizing semiconductor manufacturing and enabling a sort of small-scale or 'cottage' semiconductor ecosystem is definitely part of the vision," Hartensveld added. "The DRAM and LED projects are demonstrations of what's possible; now I want to keep shrinking the devices, improving the equipment and seeing how far this approach can actually be pushed." ®

A suspected Iran-linked cyberattack shut down a small UK power plant around the time that a series of digital intrusions disrupted American water utilities across 12 states. A British government spokesperson confirmed the hack to The Register on Monday and told us that the security incident affected a “small-scale energy generator.” “At no point was there a risk to the wider energy system,” the spokesperson said, adding that the UK’s energy system is “highly resilient,” and that the government works “closely with the energy sector to protect infrastructure.” In a series of xeets about the cyberattack, UK Energy Minister Michael Shanks said that his department briefed energy CEOs after the incident and “shared further advice with companies on the steps they should take to stay secure.” Government officials did not disclose which power station shut down, and the UK has not formally attributed the cyberattack to Iran - or any other government or hacking group. The Telegraph, which first reported the news, said that the incident shut down the power plant for four days in what is believed to be the first disruptive Iranian cyberattack of its kind in the UK. In late July, suspected Iranian cyber operatives disrupted more than 30 water facilities in Minnesota, with similar intrusions subsequently reported across at least 11 other US states. While neither state nor federal officials have attributed these hacks to Iran, private-sector threat analysts have told The Register that Iran is “almost certainly” behind these breaches, which are a direct response to the ongoing Middle East conflict. While these earlier water-system intrusions didn’t appear to have an AI assist - most or all of the American utility cyberattacks involved internet-connected programmable logic controllers (PLCs) - last week the feds warned that attackers are now using AI-generated exploitation scripts to break into internet-exposed Siemens S7 Series PLCs at water, manufacturing, energy, and other critical facilities. “This is not a theoretical risk – it is an active threat,” the FBI and four other federal agencies warned. “This appears to be a continuation of the same suite of activity we suspect is affiliated with Iran targeting PLCs,” Cynthia Kaiser, Halcyon Ransomware Research Center SVP and a former FBI cyber analyst, told The Register. “Iran-affiliated actors and adversaries are actively targeting a wide swath of operational technology because these PLCs underpin essential health, safety, and critical infrastructure across society,” Kaiser said. ®

De abrupte inperking van een grote militaire oefening van de Verenigde Staten met ‘modelbondgenoot’ Zuid-Korea door president Trump voedt er twijfels over de betrouwbaarheid van de VS als veiligheidspartner. Ook Japan maakt zich zorgen.

„Het zit muurvast”, zei Pro-leider Jesse Klaver na nieuwe besprekingen tussen de grootste oppositiepartij en het kabinet.

Je bloeddruk, cholesterol en gewicht vertellen het nodige over je gezondheid. Maar wetenschappers kijken ook naar een veel simpelere graadmeter: hoe hard je kunt knijpen. Je handkracht blijkt verrassend veel te zeggen over je algemene lichamelijke conditie en hangt samen met je levensverwachting.

Een van de grootste onderzoeken hiernaar is de internationale PURE-studie, gepubliceerd in The Lancet. Wetenschappers analyseerden bijna 140.000 volwassenen uit zeventien landen. Hun knijpkracht werd gemeten met een dynamometer, waarna ze gemiddeld ongeveer vier jaar werden gevolgd.

Vijf kilo minder maakt verschil

De resultaten waren opvallend. Voor iedere vijf kilo lagere knijpkracht nam het risico om te overlijden aan welke oorzaak dan ook met 16 procent toe. Voor sterfte door hart- en vaatziekten ging het om 17 procent. Een zwakkere grip hing ook samen met een grotere kans op een hartinfarct of beroerte.

Opmerkelijk genoeg bleek knijpkracht in deze studie zelfs een betere voorspeller van overlijden dan de systolische bloeddruk.

Recent onderzoek onder ruim 5.000 vrouwen tussen 63 en 99 jaar wijst dezelfde kant op. Wetenschappers keken naar hun handkracht en lieten de deelnemers vijf keer zonder hulp van hun armen uit een stoel opstaan. Vrouwen die bij deze fysieke tests beter presteerden, hadden gedurende de daaropvolgende jaren gemiddeld een kleinere kans om te overlijden.

Waarom zegt je hand zoveel?

Dat je handkracht interessant is, betekent niet dat sterke vingers een geheim recept voor een lang leven zijn. Gripkracht fungeert vooral als graadmeter voor de rest van je lichaam. Om kracht te leveren moeten spieren en zenuwen goed samenwerken. Minder spiermassa, ziekte of lichamelijke achteruitgang kunnen zich daardoor onder meer uiten in een zwakkere grip.

Bovendien verandert handkracht met de leeftijd. Uit onderzoek met ruim 25.000 metingen blijkt dat de gemiddelde knijpkracht grofweg piekt wanneer mensen in de dertig en veertig zijn en daarna geleidelijk afneemt.

Geen glazen bol

Er is één belangrijke waarschuwing: de onderzoeken laten een verband zien en bewijzen niet dat een zwakke hand een korter leven veroorzaakt. Extra hard in een stressbal knijpen gaat je dus niet automatisch extra levensjaren bezorgen.

Wat wel verstandig is: je spierkracht onderhouden. Regelmatig bewegen en krachttraining worden juist bij het ouder worden belangrijk om spiermassa, mobiliteit en zelfstandigheid zo lang mogelijk te behouden.

Je handdruk voorspelt dus niet wanneer je doodgaat. Maar dat een test van enkele seconden iets kan verklappen over de conditie van je hele lichaam, is op zijn minst een goede reden om je spierkracht serieus te nemen.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Gizmodo: Dr. Dre, the pioneering rapper and seven-time Grammy-winning producer behind hit songs like Tupac's "California Love" and Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady," is very much pro using artificial intelligence tools to make music. In an interview with the New York Times, Dr. Dre and Interscope Records co-founder Jimmy Iovine spoke about artificial intelligence's recent foray into music production, with the producer characterizing those who oppose AI song generation tools as "afraid of learning new things." "I don't see it as a threat. I think the only people that see it as a threat are the people who have trouble creating," Dr. Dre said. "I had a discussion with a few people a few days ago. They were against AI, and I'm like, 'OK, you sound like the person that would have been against the drum machine when it came out.' Or synthesizers, right?"

[...] Iovine, the music executive and Dr. Dre's partner in Beats by Dre, for his part, says he doesn't "see the downside at all." "There will be some crappy music. There's crappy music now," Iovine told the NYT. "In the studio, when gifted people have AI, they're going to make better records." Dr. Dre said he uses AI in producing "as a tool to see what it would do with what I just did." The award-winning producer also said he is definitely not alone among his peers in his stance on AI either: many producers use AI but fear to admit it. Iovine calls them "closet AI producers," and says Timbaland, the four-time Grammy-winning singer-producer behind a long list of hits like "Promiscuous" with Nelly Furtado, is also one.

Mette Frederiksen, who was attending meeting in Kyiv, advises high-profile women to embrace self-acceptance

Sick of getting unsolicited beauty tips on social media, even while she’s in a war zone, Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen rebuffed a male cosmetic surgeon’s offer to “fix” her and advised women in similar situations to embrace self-acceptance.

Frederiksen, a Social Democrat and Denmark’s second female prime minister, posted on Instagram that she had just returned from a trip to Ukraine where she was subjected to air raid sirens when she found a message proposing some help with her appearance.
