The Trump administration has clarified that it's 125% tariff on China was meant to be announced in addition to the 20% tariff Trump added as soon as he took office. So imports of Chinese goods are actually subject to 145% tariff for the next 5 minutes. Uh, who knows? Uh, in response, China said, \"Hey, what the heck? We'll do one more, too.\" And bumped their tariffs on US imports up to 125% and threw in a jab in their official statement about the US becoming an economic joke for good measure. These are massive tariffs for two countries whose supply chains are so interconnected, and they could lead to a product like the iPhone 16 Pro jumping from $1,000 to $3500, according to this analyst wearing a truly unhinged suit jacket, which frankly makes me question his credibility. Yet, Bloomberg values his opinion. Apparently, this is something that Dan Ies does and everyone pretends is okay. Well, Apple expert Mark German isn't pretending that iPhones could actually be made in the US. He says it isn't going to happen. But 404 Media points out that it's not impossible to make a phone almost entirely in America as proven by the Purism Liberty device, which has pretty outdated specs and costs $2,000, while its made overseas sibling, the Librem 5, goes for $800. But it's possible if you're okay with your iPhone being. But who knows, maybe Tim Cook will manage to squeeze an iPhone tariff exemption out of Trump like he did back in 2019. Speaking of exemptions, China's tariffs will not apply to products with semiconductors that were fabricated in Taiwan, which is great news for AMD, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, and others. And not great news for non-Taiwan-based fabs like Global Foundaries, Texas Instruments, and yeah, Intel. They don't need this. They're already losing ground to AMD in China. Interestingly, Intel's IPO feature, which allows some overclocking while maintaining warranty coverage, is now available only in China. You know, maybe let the rest of us have it. Intel, h you really got nothing to lose. But privacy enthusiasts are about to lose it again because Microsoft says they're preparing to try again with the roll out of Windows Recall, the controversial AI feature that records everything you do. Microsoft was a little surprised by the backlash when they rolled it out initially. So, after giving everyone some time to reset, they're flipping the switch again. You know, turning turning it on and off. That should fix it. That's not entirely fair. In the newest release preview build for Windows Insider, the feature requires users to opt in rather than opt out like the original, while pausing the feature and controlling what's captured is apparently easier. And Microsoft says the security protecting your recall content is the same for any content you have on your Windows PC, a class of device famously known for its bulletproof security. But even if someone's using the Fort Knox of PCs, some privacy advocates remain concerned not about whether the primary user has consented to having all of their stuff recorded, but whether other people sending messages, info, I don't know, freaky pictures to that user have consented. Isn't there someone you forgot to ask? Also this week, Sam Alman announced that ChatGpt now has the ability to reference all your past conversations. So AI can get to know you over your life, which is opt-in by default, although you can turn it off. Now, we're talking about AI systems who have proven in research that they can and will intentionally lie if they have a reason to. So, just be aware, your AI assistant may have just gotten an upgraded ability to gaslight you. It's certainly true for me. I have the memory of a goldfish. That's almost as bad as data brokers selling your personal info online. Thankfully, our sponsor, Delete Me, is a pro at keeping your personal information, well, personal.

Okay, I think I think that's it. Hey guys, it's Riley from the video. And crap, we haven't done the quick bits yet. I don't how does this work? After delaying pre-orders due to the tariffs, Nintendo has now announced that the first pre-order invitations for the US and Canada will be sent out on May 8th to those chosen few who fulfill the pre-order requirements for the Switch 2, which include having a previous Nintendo Switch online subscription and a certain amount of play hours. The company is reportedly doing its best to avoid increasing the conso's price anymore with plans to redirect its supply streams to stay ahead of any sudden changes in tariffs that radically disrupt the global economy. That's just that that's just kind of how things are now. So thankfully, the Switch 2's pre-order requirements reduce the risk of scalping, but users on the Nintendo Switch 2 subreddit are also getting involved, reporting eBay listings for the Switch 2 since pre-sales of items that won't be shipped for 40 days go against eBay's toos. In the battle against insane markups, Reddit stands in the breach. AMD has refreshed their Ryzen 7000HX mobile processors. The new Ryzen 8000HX series appears to be identical to their predecessors with the only obvious difference as of now being a 0.1 GHz higher boost clock on the Ryzen 9 8940HX. But, you know, but maybe in this crazy tech world right now, we need a little stability. So, I thank you AMD. I'm not going to go through every new indie game announced in this year's Triple Eye Initiative Showcase, but I will call out the Stranded Clone Colony game, The Altters, which is now coming out June 11th. Clover Pit, which is apparently the demonic love child of Bellatro and Buckshot Roulette. How could you say no? Morbid Metal is a hacken/rogue light where you shapeshift between characters in real time. and seafood developer SlowCl Clap made rematch, which you can think of as Rocket League, but without the cars. Chinese robot company Unit has posted yet another video of their G1 robot engaged in combat. It's boxing this time. They seem weirdly obsessed with their robot's ability to fight humans. I don't know what's going on there, but I do know that this touchable 3D hologram developed by Spanish researchers uses rapidly vibrating elastic bands to both display and detect finger position. So, you can stick your hand in there and move a virtual item around as long as you're okay with holograms that feel like getting slapped by angry jello. You thought I was going to do something else with that story, didn't you? you. But I wouldn't be angry at all if you came back on Monday for more tech news. If you don't come back then, well uh then yeah uh I will be angry. My personal feelings are entirely dependent upon external cues. It's more fun that way."}
