GNU Boot sent a cease and desist to Libreboot

https://libreboot.org/news/gnuboot.html#gnu-boot-cease-and-desist-email

Summary: Libreboot founder Leah Rowe discusses GNU Boot, a fork of Libreboot due to disagreement with Libreboot's Binary Blob Reduction Policy. Rowe offers assistance to GNU Boot, encouraging them to reuse her unofficial fork, non-GeNUine Boot 20230717. Despite ideological differences, Rowe hopes GNU Boot will attract more developers and collaborate with Libreboot.

ASML EUV Lithography Machine Could Keep Moore’s Law on Track

https://spectrum.ieee.org/high-na-euv

Summary: ASML is developing high-numerical-aperture (NA) EUV lithography to keep Moore's Law on track. The technology, set for commercial use in 2025, will enable chipmakers to shrink device geometries further. High-NA EUV lithography involves a major overhaul of the system's internal optics, allowing for finer circuits and improved resolution in photolithography. This innovation is crucial for sustaining Moore's Law and advancing semiconductor technology.
