Defying anti-cheat, creator gets Battlefield 6 running on 12-year-old AMD FX-9590 CPU, playable at 40+ FPS in 786p with an RX 5700 GPU — experiment reveals only SecureBoot, not TPM, is necessary for Javelin anti-cheat

AMD's Bulldozer-era FX-9590 CPU from 2013 managed to run Battlefield 6 at over 30 FPS at 1080p resolution, boosting to 40+ FPS at lower resolutions on smaller maps. FX-9590, despite being more than a decade old, does support SecureBoot, which was enough for BF6 launch, confirming TPM is not neccesary. Read more

Scientists uncovered how the amino acid leucine enhances mitochondrial efficiency by preserving crucial proteins that drive energy production. By downregulating the protein SEL1L, leucine prevents unnecessary degradation and strengthens the cell’s power output. The findings link diet directly to mitochondrial health and suggest potential therapeutic applications for energy-related diseases. Read more

Disrupted sleep patterns in Alzheimer’s disease may be more than a symptom—they could be a driving force. Researchers at Washington University found that the brain’s circadian rhythms are thrown off in key cell types, changing when hundreds of genes turn on and off. This disruption, triggered by amyloid buildup, scrambles normal gene timing in microglia and astrocytes—cells vital for brain maintenance and immune defense. Read more

Scientists have discovered that a “longevity gene” found in people who live beyond 100 can reverse heart aging in models of Progeria, a devastating disease that causes children to age rapidly. By introducing this supercentenarian gene into Progeria-affected cells and mice, researchers restored heart function, reduced tissue damage, and slowed aging symptoms. The discovery opens the door to new therapies inspired by the natural biology of long-lived humans—possibly reshaping how... Read more
