The PineNote is a tablet with a 10.1 inch grayscale E Ink display and pen support. It’s designed to be a hackable, Linux-friendly device and it’s one of the latest products from the makers of the PinePhone and PineBook line of devices.
First introduced last summer, the PineNote began shipping to developers in limited quantities in December. Now it’s available for anyone to purchase for $399 – no invitation required. But it’s probably only a good idea to buy one if you’re a developer or very early adopter because there’s very little software available for the PineNote so far.
At this point, Pine64 is shipping the PineNote without an operating system installed. It will have only a bootloader, allowing developers and enthusiasts to load their own software. And since there aren’t really any pre-built disk images available, you may have to build an OS from scratch.
That said, developers have already made some progress in getting builds Alpine and Debian Linux to run on the E Ink slate, and according to Pine64, there are ports for NixOS and other operating systems on the way.
There’s already a partially working display driver, but it’s still a work in progress. The goal is to allow developers to port mainline Linux operating systems and applications to play well with a monochrome display with a slow refresh rate.
So this is it, this is my @thepine64 #PineNote running #ArchLinuxARM and #XFCE desktop.
There are still many things that needs to be done, even booting without UART isn’t possible yet. But it’s getting there. pic.twitter.com/ViAZoQtSlZ

Developers have also figured out how to enable support PineNote’s touchscreen, audio playback, and USB port, making it possible to use USB keyboards, storage devices, and other peripherals. But at this point some hardware is still unsupported – no operating system works with the tablet’s microphone or Bluetooth radio yet.
Here’s a run-down of key specs for the PineNote:
| PineNote Specs | |
| Display | 10.1 inches 1404 x 1872 E Ink Grayscale (16 shades) Front-light (36 levels) Adjustable color temperature Capacitive multi-touch input EMR pen digitizer |
| Processor | Rockchip RK3566 4 x ARM Cortex-A55 CPU cores @ 1.8 GHz ARM Mali-G52 2EE graphics |
| RAM | 4GB LPDDR4 |
| Storage | 128GB eMMC |
| Audio | 1.3W stereo speakers 4 x microphones |
| Wireless | WiFi 5 Bluetooth 5.0 |
| Ports | USB 2.0 Type-C |
| Sensors | Gyro (for auto screen rotation) |
| Battery | 4,000 mAh Li-Po |
| Charging | USB Type-C 15W (5V/3A) |
| Dimensions | 191.1 x 232.5 x 7.4mm .52″ x 9.15″ x 0.29″ |
| Weight | 438 grams 15.45 oz |
| Price | $399 |
The tablet comes with an EMR pen, a protective cover, and a USB Type-A to Type-C adapter. But again, at this point it’s really intended for developers and enthusiasts comfortable using a device for which there isn’t yet any fully functional software, and which ships without an operating system pre-installed.

That said, the more developers who get their hands on one now, hopefully the sooner the PineNote will becomes a viable consumer-friendly device for folks who want an ePaper tablet capable of running free and open source software.

Intel has launched a line of compact desktop computers powered by the company’s inexpensive, low-power Jasper Lake processors. The new Intel NUC 11 Essential, also known by the code-named Atlas Canyon is available with a choice of Intel Celeron N4505, Celeron N5105, or Pentium Silver N6005 chips.
Intel has published details on its website and Intel Atlas Canyon NUC computers are available for pre-order from Simply NUC for $299 and up. They’re expected to begin shipping by the end of February.
This launch comes about eight months after details about Intel’s Atlas Canyon lineup first leaked. And it looks like the leaked information was pretty accurate.
The Intel NUC 11 Essential is a 135 x 115 x 36mm (5.3″ x 4.5″ x 1.4″) computer with support for up to 32GB of DDR4-2933 memory, an M.2 SSD and optional support for 64GB of eMMC storage. It supports up to two displays and features WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0, and has a set of ports that includes:
Intel offers three different models, each with a different processor. They’re all 15-watt chips based on Intel’s Jasper Lake architecture, and they all have a processor base CPU frequency of 2 GHz and Intel UHD graphics with a 450 MHz based frequency. But there are a few key differences between the models:
| Processor | Cores / Threads | Max Burst freq | GPU execution units | GPU max freq | |
| NUC11ATKC2 | Celeron N4505 | 2 / 2 | 2.9 GHz | 16 | 750 MHz |
| NUC11ATKC4 | Celeron N5105 | 4 / 4 | 2.9 GHz | 24 | 800 MHz |
| NUC11ATKPE | Pentium Silver N6005 | 4 / 4 | 3.3 GHz | 32 | 900 MHz |
It looks like at least some models will ship with Windows 11 in S Mode pre-installed on the 64GB eMMC storage, but Intel says the NUC 11 Essential should support Windows 11, Windows 10, and Linux.

It's time for another Dealmaster. Our latest roundup of the best deals we can find from around the web includes a rare discount on HBO Max subscriptions. Right now, new or lapsed subscribers to the video streaming service can take 20 percent off the cost of a monthly subscription, for up to 12 months in total. The deal applies to both the ad-supported and ad-free plans, bringing them down to $8 per month (from $10) and $12 per month (from $15), respectively. If you run the offer out for the full 12 months, it'll result in a $24 discount for those who subscribe to the ad-supported tier, or a $36 discount for those who go for the ad-free option. The deal doesn't lock you into subscribing for a set period of time, but note that, by default, the service will be set to auto-renew at the usual monthly price once your discounted period ends. The service's offer page says this deal is for the US only and will last until January 25.
While the deal doesn't apply to existing subscribers or HBO Max's annual plans, this is still decent savings for those who were already thinking of giving the service a go. Warner Bros. doesn't plan to release major films on HBO Max and in theaters simultaneously going forward, but if you need something new to binge, the service still has a good amount of fare we like, from the latest Matrix film (until January 21, at least) to newer shows like The White Lotus, The Nevers, Hacks, and Succession. Classics like The Sopranos and Curb Your Enthusiasm are still there as well.
If you're already overloaded with streaming services, though, our roundup has plenty more tech deals of note. The Apple Watch Series 7, our top smartwatch pick, is within $10 of the lowest price we've tracked, while Jabra's Elite 75t, a pair of noise-canceling true wireless headphones we recommend, are within $5 of their all-time low. The newest Apple AirPods are back down to a low of $140 and could fit the bill for those who prefer a more open earbud design, while the PC version of 2021 Ars game of the year Psychonauts 2 is discounted to $36. We've also got discounts on Nintendo Switch games and accessories, Wacom drawing tablets, and iPhone screen protectors, among other gear. You can check out the full list below.

Japanese manga artist Maki Murakami has gone to court in the United States after several pirate sites published her work without permission. Among the platforms is NyaHentai, a large pirate service with an estimated 24 million visits per month, making it Japan’s 75th most visited site overall. Murakami’s legal team is attempting to find out who runs this platform and several more.
From: TF, for the latest news on copyright battles, piracy and more.
While pirate sites offering mainstream movies and TV shows regularly pull in millions of visits every month, just a few years ago it would’ve been unthinkable that those operating in niches could become equally ranked.
These days, however, sites offering Japanese comics and animation are immensely popular with ever-increasing audiences in the West, making some manga and anime sites just as highly visited as their ‘mainstream’ content counterparts.
NyaHentai.com is a particularly popular platform. Specializing in the ‘hentai’ genre (adult content with often extraordinary themes), the site has built up a huge audience which, according to SimilarWeb stats, is currently topping 24 million visits per month.
Indeed, NyaHentai is so popular that it is currently the 75th most popular site in Japan, period, and this hasn’t gone unnoticed by copyright holders. At the time of writing, Google reports that more than 7,260 copyright holders have filed complaints requesting the removal of more than 3 million URLs from search results.
While only 53% of those actually resulted in a URL removal, that’s still around 1.6 million delisted URLs. The site is still going strong of course but there is at least one party trying to get closer to its operators.
Late December, Japanese manga artist Maki Murakami filed DMCA complaints with Cloudflare, alleging that a number of pirate sites were infringing her copyrights. The complaints covered 39 URLs, 8 of which were listed against the nyahentai.com domain and the remainder against several other allegedly-infringing platforms.
“We represent Maki Murakami, a resident of Japan and the author of the copyrighted works..,” the complaint begins.
“It has recently come to our client’s attention that certain user of your services has unlawfully published and posted certain contents on their websites […]. We demand that you immediately disable access to the Infringing Work and cease any use, reproduction, and distribution of the Original Work,” the complaint to Cloudflare adds.
Tests this week reveal that some of the works have indeed been removed, including all of the titles listed on NyaHentai. However, it appears that Murakami’s legal team intends to take things a bit further.
Following up on the DMCA complaint to Cloudflare, the artist’s legal team filed an application for a DMCA subpoena. It seeks to compel Cloudflare to hand over information that could help to identify the operator(s) of NyaHentai, presumably to enable further legal action. The information sought is comprehensive.
[I]ncluding but not limited to billing or administrative records that prove the following information used by each of the Infringers, along with time-stamp, from the time of user registration and at the time each of the Infringing Work was uploaded by the Infringers on their websites: name(s); last known address(es); last known telephone and/or cell phone number(s); any and all email address(es); account number(s); billing information (including, but not limited to, names, telephone number(s), and mailing and billing address(es) of each of all of the payment methods (including, but not limited to, credit cards, bank accounts, and any online payments system)); hosting provider(s); server(s); any other contact information; and any and all logs of IP address(es).
In addition to nyahentai.com, the DMCA subpoena to Cloudflare also requires the service to hand over the same information for several other sites.
Erocool.net is the most popular with around 1.67 million visits per month, closely followed by ahentai.top with 1.6 million. The remaining pair (hentaidock.com and doghentai.com) have much lower levels of traffic, with around 250K to 300K visits per month each.
What will happen next is open to question. While Cloudflare can sometimes hand over useful user information, it is common for website operators to use its services after submitting false registration details. This can hinder investigations but, on occasion, useful intelligence can be recovered.
Whether this has anything to do with doghentai.com currently being down is unknown.

Never-before-seen cross-platform SysJoker came from an “advanced threat actor.”

Researchers have uncovered a never-before-seen backdoor written from scratch for systems running Windows, macOS, or Linux that remained undetected by virtually all malware scanning engines.
Researchers from security firm Intezer said they discovered SysJoker—the name they gave the backdoor—on the Linux-based Webserver of a “leading educational institution.” As the researchers dug in, they found SysJoker versions for both Windows and macOS as well. They suspect the cross-platform malware was unleashed in the second half of last year.
The discovery is significant for several reasons. First, fully cross-platform malware is something of a rarity, with most malicious software being written for a specific operating system. The backdoor was also written from scratch and made use of four separate command-and-control servers, an indication that the people who developed and used it were part of an advanced threat actor that invested significant resources. It’s also unusual for previously unseen Linux malware to be found in a real-world attack.
