it's Monday or as I've always called IT Tech link day number one we just always
called that in my family it's like a cultural thing I just grew up with it
mine too but we start at zero the psvr two might not be the only new
PlayStation Hardware coming out next year according to yet another report
claiming that Sony is working on a PS5
slim to launch in Q3 but thick is in now
PS5 that's only fair I mean Xbox got a
little mini me the PS5 deserves one too even consoles need a little friend
apparently Sony has been able to significantly reduce the size of the
current PS5 by shrinking down the processor die thereby reducing its power
and cooling requirements which means unlike the Xbox series s the PS5 slim
will probably just be lesser in size not in strength we love a short slim and
strong King like Peter Dinklage like him
Sony is also working on a Cutting Edge technology that will allow you to lay
the console horizontally without needing
a specialized stand to do so no one's been able to figure this out until now
it's very exciting Twitter isn't the only social media giant run by a strange
billionaire with questionable business goals that lead to mass firing sprees a
report from The Wall Street Journal says that meta I could lay off a boatload of
people starting in the middle of this week with thousands of people reportedly
set to get the ax content moderators probably
I hope not and not the good kind
just doesn't matter meta and its previous Pokemon evolution Facebook Inc
have never had a mass layoff in their history but seeing as the company's
stock is down a whopping 73 percent so far this year it looks like meta has
been forced to cut costs primarily meat-based ones now they have to meet in
the metaverse I wanted this Zuckerberg himself has
already said most teams at metable shrink in size or simply not grow and
metashares actually went up after the news broke about the layoff so I guess
this whole metaverse thing is gonna happen after all they thought the
metaverse team was getting laid off they're like wait you just kept all of
them and you already know to stay away from fake news sites I hope but now you
need to watch your step with real news websites when before you could trust
those 100 last week it was revealed that
a hacking group infiltrated a media company's infrastructure don't worry it
wasn't us obviously to inject malware
into over 2 250 different news sites serving major markets in the United
States the malicious code was placed into a piece of JavaScript that these
news websites would load up resulting in a fake browser update notification which
probably wasn't successful at tricking the types of seniors who never update
precisely because they don't want to get hacked like
my dad so as always be really careful what you click on even if it came from
that amazing trustworthy website providing totally unbiased commentary I
mean that describes us it's called

you can you couldn't Elon Musk has announced that any accounts engaged in
impersonation on Twitter without being clearly marked as parody will be
permanently suspended these butt hurts doesn't suspended mean temporary to be
fair to Elon impersonation has been a problem on the service even with a check
mark thing but it was funny that the announcement came after tons of accounts
started using elon's face and name leading to the account ban of at least
one high-profile comedian it's the classic physical comedy is hilarious
until you're the one getting flattened with a piano situation happens to me all
the time Microsoft is trying to reduce its overall power cost and carbon
footprint and its latest move to achieve this goal looks to be targeting Xbox
consoles you're coming for your bacon my
frames some users in the Xbox Insider program have been sent surveys about an
opt-in to reduce FPS and resolution to
in turn reduce power consists I only have 30 to begin with hahaha
it's going to be more cinnamon cinnamon attic
sounds delicious it's unclear whether this will become an actual feature at
some point or if asking people to voluntarily get less performance out of
their expensive consoles will be at all popular but the planet will thank you
just a couple frames spare a few frames for the forest Intel has clarified a
previous report that you'd need the Intel management engine installed to
update the firmware on discrete Arc gpus the Intel management engine is a
component that's only found on you guessed it Intel CPUs but team blue has
come out and said you actually don't need it and Arc firmware can be updated
just fine even if you have a processor made by those
people at team red if you are flying anywhere in Spain on Friday you may have
hit delays after the country closed its airspace due to an uncontrolled Chinese
rocket re-entering the atmosphere now don't worry we're not on the verge of a
sino-spanish war as the rocket was delivering a space station module to the
Spanish Countryside no it was coming
divot this crater that's a good spot
this isn't the first time a piece of Chinese space debris threatened other
parts of the world and it's getting kind of annoying but it is great advertising
though did you know China had a space station I did I ordered one in Alibaba
