confused is who snoozed on Tech news infused with the blues of living in an
ignorant Man's Shoes the news is what we use to amuse so don't refuse to be in
thank you so much ah don't you hate that you only get to pay for a CPU once no oh
you don't well this is awkward is what I assume
Intel said when they revealed more details on their pay-as-you-go service
Intel on demand the service will let users unlock additional performance on
their upcoming Sapphire rapid server processors which is way better than
being stuck with the default performance with no ability to pay for more my
demand is they stop it's frustrating Sapphire Rapids already has its work cut
out for it in the battle with AMD's apparently excellent epic Genoa platform
and I can't imagine this will help but offering customers the opportunity to
pay to use the product they already paid for is so hot right now that
Mercedes-Benz is doing it too Das automaker I think that's the other one
announced a twelve hundred dollar per year subscription service to access the
max torque and acceleration their electric vehicles can handle now this
may be a hot take but I think this is good for society you don't want to
entrust just anyone with a powerful electric vehicle you need something like
a like a skill testing question or like money just if someone is in real life
you need skills to get money so I was
really skilled to be born with a rich father in a huge win in the war against
humans meta has created an AI that
excels at the board game diplomacy a strategy war game known for its
negotiation phases of forming and betraying alliances with other players
and forming beneficial strategies seems like part of the standard AI tool said
we're going for here that's what we want them Mark Zuckerberg executes fun times
we better hurry this up or we'll never have Skynet the AI named Cicero has
achieved a top 10 ranking in the game and meta claims that it is so adapted
using natural language to negotiate that human players often favored working with
Cicero over other humans to be honest that might just say more about humans
than the AI but three-time diplomacy world champion
Andrew Goff has said that a lot of human players will soften their approach or
they'll start getting motivated by revenge and Cicero never does that thank
God and that it's ruthless in executing its strategy wow sounds like Cicero is a
Charming emotionalist calculating machine or what psychologists might call
a psychopath this announcement just happens to coincide with a proposal from
the San Francisco PD to allow robots to use lethal Force what get him what a
crazy Elon Musk aka the guy who haunts my
dreams but not in a fun sexy way apparently wants Twitter 2.0 to have
encrypted DMS as well as voice and video calls according to a leaked recording of
an internal meeting because before Twitter can be X the everything app It's
gotta be why the several things app musk
also said that he had been communicating with Signal app founder former Twitter
employee and world record holder for coolest name Moxie Marlin Spike damn you
know the steampunk biker gang bar owner
pirate Captain Marlin spike is potentially willing to help out with
encrypting Twitter DMS sounds like Elon has shifted Focus to that instead of the
content moderation Council he said that Twitter would form after meeting with a
coalition of political social activist groups since he was only going to do
that if they didn't pressure advertisers to leave the platform and I guess some
of them did that so no moderation anymore except to stop in person Nation
activists who attended that meeting such as Jessica Gonzalez have said that they
never actually made an agreement like that although they may have been
impersonated man that bot problem on Twitter is even worse than Elon said it
was so many Jessica's now it's time for quick bits brought to you by Bessie

bottle of rum he was so angry Microsoft has claimed they offered Sony a 10-year
deal to keep Call of Duty on Playstation in an effort to assuage their concerns
over Microsoft's attempts to buy Activision Blizzard Sony may still be
skeptical though apparently team Xbox has been using the fact that Nintendo
does just fine without access to Call of Duty as an argument for why their deal
should go through while seemingly missing or avoiding the fact that
Nintendo has a very different Market than PlayStation Nintendo is for
children while Call of Duty is for racist children who claim to sleep with
my mom it's 2022 Riley they also claim to sleep with my dad
and yeah that makes sense news Apple and
Google are being investigated by the UK's competition and markets Authority
or CMA over their dominance in the mobile browser Market which is
apparently a combined 97 percent which
is if my experience in grade school is anything to go by a score that's only
obtainable by cheating the agency also wants to look at Apple's control over
cloud gaming since apps like Xbox game pass are unavailable through Apple's App
Store and can only be accessed in Safari well I guess Microsoft doesn't like
being on the other side of a browser Monopoly oh my that was a good one
Microsoft drops smart home company yuffie might not be a good guy Paul

infrastructure truly this legislation is the biggest blow to the value of
cryptocurrency the world has seen in at least 10 minutes starting now end of
reset and China has claimed that it has solved gaming Addiction in children
all of them the Beijing government has previously called video games spiritual
opium opium for ghosts and so since August 2021 children in the
country have been banned from gaming for more than three hours a week a report
has been filed in the country showing that astonishingly 75 percent of young
Gamers now play for less than three hours a week how do they accomplish that
this very effective if there's one thing I've learned from prohibition and the
War on Drugs I'm sure this figure is completely accurate and all these
children aren't I don't know lying or something find a loophole who knows ah
they wouldn't do that they don't know how to use computers gaming addicts
