welcome to TechLink the everything show as long as everything uh just means Tech
news X the everything app has launched the beta version of its own TV app so
you can use your smart TV to watch your favorite X long form videos If that is
indeed a thing that you have in a previous life Twitter already had a TV
app but it closed in 2018 because almost no one was using it now this new app
might theoretically be able to surpass its predecessor but right now
it uh it kind of sucks it's a fairly
barebones experience even for a beta and the default recommendations seem to all
be from the same genre of angry man in a suit yells at clouds and there's only so
many suits SL clouds the roll out is
somewhat awkwardly timed with the Brazilian Supreme Court deciding to
uphold the decision of one Justice to block the video platform of the future
country wide Elon Musk of course has been in a monthlong spat with one
particular Supreme Court Justice over X's refusal to suspend suspected
disinformation accounts while they're under investigation starlink initially
refused to block its sister company on the grounds that Brazil had illegally
Frozen its assets to pay for X's $3 million in outstanding fines but they
have now relented luckily SpaceX doesn't have any launch sites in the country or
local officials would probably put a boot on on a Falcon 9 rocket just push
it over it landed many times can't wait to upload our videos on X sounds hot
Intel has finally launched its core Ultra 200v lunar Lake Mobile processors
Intel is boasting a 30% Improvement in gaming performance over previous gen and
extreme Energy Efficiency and that's the real draw here Dell's new 200v powered
XPS 13 laptop can apparently stream video for up to 26 hours though that's
just for the low resolution model ASUS is launching a core Ultra powered nuck
Mini PC which for some reason comes with a dedicated co-pilot button on the front
just in case the one on your keyboard isn't enough honestly I can't wait until
Microsoft fully loses its mind and adds a dedicated co-pilot button to the
Monitor and mouse too put them everywhere why not show them to your
friends put a co-pilot button on it frankly these new Chips can't come soon
enough especially because Intel is apparently running low on core I9 3900k
and 4900 K chips most likely because of
an avalanche of RMA requests this has led to a shipping backlog of 3 to four
weeks in some parts of the US in other Intel news according to Reuters the
company's contract manufacturing business has hit a major setback as
their 18a silicon Wafers have failed to
pass quality tests set by one of their clients broadcom altogether this
explains the company's decision to Rich ually sacrificed CEO pat gelsinger on
the ceremonial Sun altar at their Santa Clara headquarters won't do much for

recommend you a flavor of Cheeto Cox Media Group claims this uh uses AI to
capture realtime intent data by listening to your conversations our
conversations everyone's elsewhere in the pitch deck Cox claims Amazon
Facebook and Google among its current clients though it's unclear whether any
of them used this quite literal spyware
of course they did meta acknowledged the partnership but explicitly denied ever
using its users microphones to listen in on users we used different microphones
like what Amazon also denied participating in this program while
Google simply removed Cox from the site
that lists its Partners after being reached for contact by 404 media it's a
bit like finding out that your boyfriend robbed a Chuck-E-Cheese and responded by
re-uploading the exact same profile picture you had before but slightly
cropped in just enough to cut his face out of the photo and his name is Cox I
never had a boyfriend what do you mean but you're going to want to take a photo

the five quick bits will be granted one wish so wish away but no take Backes but
we only have four of them uh some police are Towing Teslas that they believe have
witnessed crimes according to a report by the San Francisco Chronicle at least
three times between July and August of this year law enforcement in Oakland
California obtained warrants to tow Teslas that were parked near potential
crime scenes they've seen too much the Hope being that one of the vehicles many
cameras captured video evidence there are unfortunately some downsides to this
like the the owner of one of these Teslas going to the parking lot and
discovering that they no longer have a vehicle it'll be awkward when they call
the cops to report it a stolen hello officer wait you have it look we're all
trying to find the guy who did this Microsoft has confirmed that co-pilot
plus features will be coming to AMD ryzen AI 300 and Intel 200v powered
laptops this November that means that team red and blue enthusiasts will also
be forced to emotionally prepare for the relaunch of Windows recall Windows users
were initially excited when a new optional update added the ability to
uninstall the controversial feature but Microsoft told The Verge ah that that
was a bug that was whoops Microsoft would not say if the ability to
uninstall recall would be added an ironic lack of transparency since we're
discussing a feature that basically watches everything you do on your computer Qualcomm has filled out their
Snapdragon X Series chip lineup with four more SKS two 8 core and two 10 core
Snapdragon X plus models the biggest thing the 12 core Snapdragon X Elite
chips were criticized for is their graphics performance so Qualcomm made
the graphics on these chips even weaker
however Qualcomm says they all maintain the same 45 tops of npu performance and
laptops with the bottom tier 8 Core X Plus will start at a cheaper price of
800 bucks Qualcomm started with strong
claims around their new chips and the messaging has just become weaker and
weaker I can't wait for for the six core Snapdragon X still plus it's still plus
though plus minus shouldn't you just call it x no no no no no it's the X plus
minus and some people are criticizing Oprah Winfrey because her upcoming AI
special seems a little one-sided in a
promo Winfrey claims she is speaking to some of America's leading experts on AI
like Bill Gates a person who used to write
software and Sam Alman the CEO of an AI
company who doesn't know how to build an AI himself naturally Altman will be
breaking down how AI Works in layman's terms maybe these are just the sexy
names and there will be actual scientists there I'm sure this will be a
meaningful discussion into the minutia of artificial intelligence brought To Us
by the woman who gave doctors Phill and Oz to the world and look at that turned
out but we just want to give you some tech news so come on back Friday when uh
we have more that's we don't it's gone now
