hi there no I'm just a Twitter customer support but press relations no we don't
have anything like that this is this is the tech news
Dell unveiled an updated prototype for concept Luna a fully modular laptop that
comes apart in seconds just like me when I watch Pixar's Up the little
accomplishes this by having no glue no screws securing components and no actual
product that's right it's still just a concept but man am I ever hoping instead
of any of those nasty things a push pin tool is used as an unlocking mechanism
and allows everything to be taken apart in less than a minute this is a massive
change from an earlier Luna prototype that was shown off last year which still
used four screws four screws that's four too many to secure everything in place
because it didn't know who it wanted to
be yet what does that even mean anyway good job you're doing really well on the
script so far
Dell apparently worked with a micro Factory while developing the new Luna
which was equipped with a robot ARM that can take the device apart while also
scanning each component as its is removed to like determine its Health
like a doctor with the world's coldest hands
had ability to quickly check them all with an automated process during
disassembly could allow for the ReUse of some parts that are still in good shape
while no launch date has been set Dell did state that parts of this project
could Cascade into other products sooner
which sounds great if it means fewer customers get screwed get it because no
screws a group of tech Giants is suing California over a new law that could
force them to effectively babysit your kids for you and frankly big Tech isn't
sure they're old enough yet for that kind of responsibility meta Google and
Tick Tock of all unlikely allies have joined forces with others to become the
trade Association net choice
boy I love political group branding
agree with net choice trying to stop California's a
Zine code act from taking effect in 2024. the law is meant to Force tech
companies to make sure that their products and services are designed in
the interest of child safety and to prevent exposure to harmful content as
tech companies are currently protected from liability of third-party content
posted to their platforms by section 230. it was why Tick Tock was not found
liable when 15 children under 12 died
from the Blackout Challenge last year now that sounds really bad but netchoice
doesn't want you to fall for the government's emotionally manipulative
argument of but think of the children I mean why should
you anyway little jerks won't leave you alone won't stop calling you names like
Mom or Dad Uncle net Choice has pointed
out that the law is vague about what harmful even means and it would require
reporting user information to the government which brings up privacy
concerns an issue that big Tech takes extremely seriously Elon Musk AKA Thanos
but for companies uh has been shaking things up at Twitter Again by suspending
the account of competitor Mastodon and even blocking users from sharing links
to the platform now to be fair Elon said
he wanted to make Twitter all about Free Speech but if you leave or talk about
leaving then how will the speech be free and also any journalist that talked
about Elon and were mean well they need to be suspended too according to Elon
the journalists were actually suspended because they doxed him by reporting on
the fact that he was doxed and besides
they weren't really journalists were they they were journalists those guys
fair game so yeah doxing is bad unless you're Elon
tweeting someone else's license plate and asking if anyone recognizes their
car because obviously that's called delayed doxing which according to
another Elon Tweed higher in the thread is utterly harmless
here's the thing though it is his platform he bought it and it's not
Twitter anymore it's X the everything except jet tracking accounts and
Mastodon and journalists who reported on this app app now it's time for the butt

I guess they were testing long form before but now they're landscape this is
great news for tick talkers as now your followers will be able to see even more
of the people that you inconvenienced when you decided to film the dance in the middle of a busy sidewalk two
designers for the steam deck had an interview with the Verge and oh boy they
teased a second generation of the handheld but don't get too excited they
said they weren't planning to really increase the performance instead they'll
focus on a better display and better battery life which is like whatever who
cares actually no that's like awesome the big reveal though wasn't even that
because like come on realistically of course they're going to do a steam deck too the big reveal was that they want to
make a successor to the most revered and respected controller of all time the
stadia controller excuse me the steam controller that's it's really good for
people with giant thumbs I love those two thumb buttons ET loves it GM's
self-driving Cruise Robo taxis are facing an investigation by the U.S
government after reports of the vehicles blocking traffic and in some cases
breaking so suddenly that they caused rear end collisions in other news
they're also investigating Dennis no kidding could this be the world's
softest robot Uprising or is it simply a
or is it simply a robot union strike those greedy fat cats at GM are lighting
their pockets while hard-working robots go unpaid wow I wish I could do
something about it stability AI announced that artists will be able to
opt out of the next version of stable diffusion so that their work won't be
used in the training set for the popular AI I guess algorithms aren't allowed to
be cultured anymore this comes just days after artists protested the art platform
art station for allowing AI art those
are really a protest if you still post on Art station
I don't know I'm not an artist I'm just a hot dad this must have been written
for Riley I ended up hosting though
and a Russian crew capsule docked to the International Space Station sprung a
coolant leak and is now inoperable cameras on the outside of the station
showed a stream of coolant leaving the capsule though investigations have not
yet discovered what caused the capsule to suddenly spring a leak so far
analysts most likely explanation remains stage Frights
we're certainly not frightened to tell you to come back on Monday when we'll
have even more Tech news now written by AIS because quite frankly I'm not that
pleased with the jokes in this episode just kidding just kidding this is one from one of our new writers and it's
actually very good yeah I wrote you were a hot dad
