Transcripts
hey I want my
news what's taken so
long I'm going home nvidia's RTX 5090
and 80 graphics cards are real and they
are spectacular specs for both cards
were tweeted out by venerable leaker
copy 7 Kimmy without even acknowledging
how Bonkers some of them are the 590
apparently takes the 490s 24 GB of vram
and slides it up to 32 GB the largest
amount of vram in a gaming GPU ever the
RTX 580 is being held back at the same
16 gigs though presumably to aone for
the RTX 4070 TI disguising itself as an
RTX 480 at launch the sins of the father
going back to the 5090 kopite says it'll
need 600 watts of power compared to the
490s 450 watt requirement that would max
out a 12v 2x6 connector so it's a good
thing that new MSI power supply was
recently spotted with two of them we're
going to call that whole connector
melting thing a learning experience but
even if there is still a melting risk
the 590 also apparently has 33% more
Cuda cor and isn't that worth it
according to a report from bench life
the two gpus are expected to debut at
CES in January for $440,000 and a
breeding pair of goats must be good goat
reviews for laptops powered by Intel's
new core 200 series AKA lunar Lake hit
the web this week and unlike the launch
of qualcomm's Snapdragon X Series laptop
chips there is a consensus here uh yeah
they're good lunar Lake battery life is
generally on par or better than the
Snapdragon X Series and the upgraded art
Graphics seem to trade blows with amd's
mobile competitors but to make the
comparison even worse for Qualcomm
Intel's new notebooks have full native
x86 app support which wouldn't even have
been a thing to mention this time last
year but now Intel gets a free win
because arms only fluent at
best versus native all right I'm going
home which is great because Intel really
needs wins right now The Foundry
division quit developing their 20a node
to focus on the more advanced 18a node
which will show up for the first time in
Intel's Clearwater Forest xon processors
they better be good or someone's going
to buy you that's how it works following
qualcomm's advances arm also apparently
shot their shot but Intel's staying
strong she's independent she don't need
no fellow Tech Corporation and to prove
how much they care Intel took another
look at that instability issue in their
13th and 14th gen desktop processors and
are releasing another micr code update
to fix what they now say is the real
root cause and I'm happy to believe them
until they find the next one turns out
they were haunted sorry open AI is
planning to restructure itself so that
the for-profit company would no longer
be controlled by its nonprofit board
according to a Reuters report the report
also says the plan would see CEO Sam
Alman receiving equity for the first
time worth an estimated 150 billion
which would pay for him more than enough
clone bodies he goes through them like
that he's like twink Palpatine however
at a company all hands this week ultman
denied any plan to get him a giant
Equity stake in the company although
it's unclear what might qualify as a
giant amount to Sam already a
billionaire Alman his parents named him
ambitiously actually Sam is short for S
ambitiously stitious also this week open
AI CTO Mira M
of face Fame as well as the chief
research officer and VP of research all
left the company seems related to the
whole changing two for profit thing but
not to Sam Alman who tweeted that
leadership changes are a natural part of
companies and while this one was abrupt
they are not a normal company and he's
right they have this whole convoluted
nonprofit controlling a for-profit
structure to protect Humanity from AI oh
right they're getting rid of that to
become more normal something Sam has
strived for all his life he may have
been pleased to hear then that while
touring the globe trying to gather 7
trillion doar to build dozens of new
chipm plants the New York Times says
that TS SMC Executives dismissed Elman
as a podcasting bro which is about as
basic as it gets good job Sam one day he
won't be an ALT man he'll be a normal
man if he wants to move up to Advanced
he should check out our sponsor ground
news they're trying to do something
about the fact that algorithms have
divvied up the internet into these
information bubbles that stop you from
getting a more complete picture of what
the heck's going on also it's kind of
Stuffy and crowded in that bubble you
end up yelling at people you actually
agree with ground news can help you
break free they aggregate news stories
breaking down the political leanings and
ownership of each news source so if one
of them tells you Birds aren't real you
can get an idea of where that's coming
from and with their blind spot feature
you can also catch important details you
might have missed for example a recent
story about Elon musk's neuralink
getting the fda's coveted breakthrough
device tag for its Vision restoring
implant helping to FastTrack its
development was reported on much more by
right leaning Outlets who emphasized the
exciting potential of the device while
the left and Center leaning Outlets that
did report on the story used a more
skeptical tone it's hard to acknowledge
that something is kind of cool if it's
done by someone we may not personally
like but it's important take the first
step get the transparency you deserve
from your news and save 40% on a ground
news Vantage plan by using our Link in
the description hey isn't this where the
quick bits usually are yeah that's we're
about to happen I don't see them
anywhere Microsoft is once again trying
to make fetch happen with an adjusted
version of its controversial recall
feature it's back it's that classic
Microsoft wisdom if you announce
something enough times eventually the
public will be too exhausted to get
angry the company says the feature will
be opt in by default and its locally
stored files will be encrypted and
require reauthentication to access the
new and
improved recall will operate inside a
VBS enclave and will only operate when
bit locker and device encryption is
fully enabled but most importantly it
can also now be uninstalled hallelujah
amen when Zuck announced at meta connect
that Facebook and Instagram would start
serving users AI generated content based
on their interests he didn't mention
that the content may also contain your
face any users that have onboarded to
meta's imagine me feature which allows
the creation of AI selfies based on
users photos may see AI images of
themselves in their
feeds that's not dystopian at all this
is quite similar to the story we covered
last week about Snapchat where the
company was able to use AI generated
images of users faces in ads that only
the user sees however this story is
scarier because people actually use
Instagram ooh got them apparently people
use Snapchat I don't know who
researchers revealed they could hack
into millions of vehicles thanks to a
bug in automaker Kia's website the
vulnerability allowed them to gain
access to back-end dealer apis that's a
problem because Kia apparently gives
their dealers the ability to assign
control of the Internet connected
features of any car to any customer
account with just a license plate number
this bypass could unlock a vehicle's
doors and start its engine even worse
the vehicle could be remotely located
and any installed 360 degre cameras
could also be accessed also the attack
takes like 30 seconds oh you know I'm
starting to think that turning every
into a computer was a bad idea maybe we
draw the line at
plants thought they hacked my vikus a
paap poic man who relies on a $100,000
exoskeleton was left unable to walk for
2 months after the manufacturer rewalk
refused to fix a wiring issue with the
watch he uses to control the device when
the man former jockey Michael Strait
contacted the company they told him they
no longer work on devices older than 5
years hope you had fun straight got his
a decade ago so I guess instead of
fixing his $20 watch battery he should
just drop Porsche money on a whole new
device and hope insurance will cover it
of course Mr straight story hit the
local news and rewok mysteriously found
their soldering kit between the couch
cushions and fixed his watch a few days
later thank goodness that's lucky and if
you like your gaming mice equal parts
modular ergonomic and horror inducing
look no further than the P design Staal
B an open-source DIY Mouse design that
only looks like an Alien Parasite a
little bit I rate it a for ah the idea
is instead of settling for a set Mouse
shape you 3D print and assemble dozens
of adjustable parts to create the mouse
shape you want as long as that shape is
existential dread what are you scared
it's just a mouse just just put your
hand on it merge with it join us but
don't join with us on Monday for more
Tech news because it's what the
government calls a statutory holiday
despite presenting no evidence that they
exist in the wild which means they
probably just made it up just like
birds okay whatever man right Wednesday
Wednesday
