Linus Gabriel Sebastian AKA work Daddy
has announced that his relationship with the CEO position isn't working out
anymore but he still loves us very much fortunately techlinked is here to tell
you that work step dad is very nice and daddy will still be around in an LTT
video Linus explained that effective July 1st which is Canada today he will
be stepping down as CEO and handing the Reigns over to Taryn Tong his old boss
from NCIX who worked at Corsair for nine years in Adele for nearly two while
Linus was accumulating his tips also I Rose to the guy before so easily
roastable Mr Sebastian will become the chief Vision officer something he called
a stupid BS sounding made-up role which is weird since most people just call
that an executive position Linus revealed he and Yvonne are still
the sole shareholders of the company and that they recently have been offered a
buyout of 100 million dollars of which they could have given me a lot but
instead they turned it down now I know that if some Corporal rival wants to
hire me to burn this place to the ground it'll cost them at least nine figures
I'm kidding of course I'd never do that no matter how much MKBHD offered me
chat GPT is now native on iOS since openai has launched a free app on the
App Store allowing iPhone owners everywhere to have deep deeply personal
conversations that probe where to draw the line between human and computer all
while using the toilet at 3am Trump Style openai's official blog post states
of the app is first launching in the US before expanding to more countries in
the weeks to come hopefully our country and they even teased a future Android
app that will be on its way best of luck finding the official iOS app though
since it's apparently buried under a list of third-party chat Bots and
knockoffs in the App Store this might not bother Apple people too much since
reports saying the company has banned employees from using chat GPD came out
the same day as the app's announcement according to documents seen by The Wall
Street Journal Apple employees also can't use GitHub co-pilot which uses
openai Tech to automate software coding all of this is coming out as apple is
allegedly developing their own generative language AI so it makes sense
it would be a bit weird if openai helped create their own competition like
helping your parents choose what child they're going to adopt knowing you'll
have to fight them later on for the right to sleep on the top bunk with
Mommy and Montana of Hannah Fame has become the first state to outright ban
Tick Tock when Governor Greg gianforte signed the bill into law on May 17th the
governor then did what any middle-aged man who wants to appear too young for
Facebook would do he announced it on Twitter the reaction to his tweet was
mixed just like the reactions IRL people are wondering how the ban will work well
the app suddenly shut down when you enter Montana airspace apparently
platforms like Google and apple must remove the app from app stores in the
state or be fined ten thousand dollars a day all this might end up meaning
nothing however because a lawsuit has already been filed on behalf of tick
tock creators in Montana that's right all five of them we're talking Hank
Green others the rest of them they're
mad the lawsuit alleges that the state government doesn't have the authority to
make laws based on Nash security and the law infringes on free speech of citizens
which China loves and also not everyone

world's first AR laptop the space top boasts a 100 inch virtual screen that
can be seen through an attached AR headset for a look that says blind lady

it's missing which raises the question of why they gave it such a tiny keyboard
Cipher calls this thing full size an important note for anyone dating a
member of their marketing team if you know what I'm saying the space top specs
are unimpressive Qualcomm CPU 8 gigabytes of RAM and a 5 hour battery

exciting part of a basketball game with a loop of a controversial film trailer
and wouldn't you know it Google announced earlier that day that YouTube
will now have 30 second unskippable ads
you got one half of that right Google good luck figuring out the 32nd part and
