immediately announced that before the law goes into effect some months from now news will no longer be available on Facebook or Instagram for anyone in the true north and this is totally different to when meta threatened to do the same in Australia before agreeing to pay Australian news Publishers after that country passed a similar law and completely distinct from when meta agreed to pay news Publishers in France after the French government also passed a similar law this time they mean business it's no joke like that time Ricky took the snowmobile off that ramp a bit fast and banged his shins up real good oh he went off for a Rippy absolutely shattered Louis Rossman has alleged that Amazon has removed him from their Affiliates program in retaliation for reporting on the story of an

his application to the Amazon Associates program did not qualify and that his temporarily approved account has now been rejected after seven years nothing lasts forever everyone dies that got dark there were some big Quantum Computing developments this week IBM has suggested that quantum computers will surpass classical Computing within two years after successfully simulating the behavior of a magnetic material at a scale not possible on regular computers then two days ago Microsoft announced it had achieved a physics breakthrough that was necessary to build the world's first true Quantum supercomputer of course they celebrated this by announcing their Azure Quantum elements system to integrate with Quantum Computing tools including its very own version of copilot so even Quantum researchers can Outsource their coding to Chachi BT I see no future repercussions for marrying Ai and Advanced computational Technologies I mean we need to send a Microsoft should change their name to something snappier like I don't know like cyberdyne researchers have created an app called fever phone that turns any smartphone into an accurate thermometer the app combines the onboard components that track the phone's internal temperature and machine learning to measure body temperature simply by holding the touchscreen against a user's forehead for 90 seconds this may be unfortunate news for Google since only a month ago it leaked that the pixel 8 Pro would have a dedicated infrared temperature sensor they spend all that money on engineering and designing a phone thermometer when the real thermometer was inside the phone all along the way and a hardcore Splatoon fan spent thirty five hundred dollars on Nintendo stock so he could be allowed to rant about in-game hairstyles at the
