in a specific Texas Court District presided over by the supposedly honorable Reed o' Conor an investor in Tesla maybe Twitter's just grumpy the EU just said the platform doesn't make enough Revenue to fall under the digital markets act but it is subject to the Digital Services act under which Twitter is facing potential fines the EU is reportedly mulling over whether to consider Elon Musk as the provider of x meaning that revenue from his other non-publicly traded companies SpaceX neuralink xai and the boring company would be used to calculate those fines I bet he wishes he had a block button for the EU right now you know what quick look at the sponsor boot dodev which is an online self-paced course designed to teach you backend web development in Python and go while feeling like you're

dodev that's 25% off your first month or your first year depending on the subscription you choose quick look there's some bits over there I'm just kidding they're right here a federal judge in California has granted Google's request to delay an order that would have forced them to open up the Play Store to host other app stores after a court battle last year found the Play Store had become an illegal Monopoly this may give Google some time to appeal the whole ruling since they argue you can still download apps that aren't on the Play Store it's Android you can sideload as an example they say fortnite can be downloaded in three whole ways through the Galaxy store sideloading or the Epic gam store except the Epic gam store itself can only be Sid loaded and epic removed fortnite from the Galaxy store coincidentally in protest of how Samsung started blocking side loading by default on their phones so there's not only just one single option it's objectively harder than using the Play Store there's got to be a word for that that makes one think of a round-faced cartoon man with a mustache and a top hat his name's Uncle Penny bags Uncle Penny bags researchers testing 6G wireless tech have managed to transmit data at 938 gigabits per second or around 117 gigabytes per second while single data signals have been sent at over 1,000 gbits per second this test sent multilex data across frequencies from 5 to 150 GHz using a combination of digital to analog converters optically modulated signals and frequency locked lasers to create the nerdiest sentence I think I've ever spoken now of course 6G won't provide a terabit per second download speed all the time but if the ratio to average to top theoretical speed is anything like 5gs real world 6G could be 13,000 times faster that may sound ridiculous to you but actually yes I agree Qualcomm has apparently cancelled the Snapdragon dev kit and refunded all orders according to Jeff gearing my internet dad gearing received an email confirming the news from Arrow the electronics company from which geerling received his devkit eventually geerling initially expected to receive the devkit in July but didn't get it until last month Garling himself called the devkit a missed opportunity so I'm sure he'll be happy to get his money back maybe he can use it to buy a baseball glove and we could I don't know maybe play catch sometime Gigabyte is launching a Thunderbolt 5 addin card that it's named Thunderbolts 5 a name that seems almost purposely designed to cause confusion on one hand it's great that users with old systems will be able to upgrade to Thunderbolt 5 but it's named like the bootleg ripoff of a more popular movie like Pulp faction or the lion queen Thunderbolts 5 is a certified addin card that has a pair of six pin PCIe power connectors and grants full Thunderbolt 5 functionality including up to 80 gbits per second of bidirectional bandwidth or 120 gbits per second unidirectional that's really cool but it's a bit like instead of being named Robin Batman's sidekick was called Batman's no Batman's really thinks he's going to stop crime no and moly robotics wants you to buy this personal chef Robo ARM well probably not you unless you've got to spare $115,000 burning a hole in your pocket and your spouse got mad the last time you bought a yacht without discussing it first the cooking machine has one clear flaw in that it has no means of sensing its environment it requires a human operator to prepare and position the ingredients where it expects them to be and at that point you might as well just make your own food the bot or or pay somebody to make use the machine to make your food probably hire a pretty good Chef for that price the bot also doesn't seem prepared for any kind of improvisation you'll need to pick from a pre-approved list of dishes of which there are currently 12 hope you're a big fan of spaghetti putanesca which fun fact means prostitute spaghetti what but to learn more inappropriately named past Ed dishes you'll have to come back on Monday and there will also be Tech news but yeah whatever"}
