okay I'm gonna try to keep it together for today's Tech news because
I I had nightmares about lewig all night Riley sucks ass you suck ass why Intel
has announced their latest Ultra Flagship gaming processor the
$689 core I9 14900 KS and if you thought
it was kind of a pointless product well listen to this not only can It boost up
to 6.2 GHz 200 MHz more than the now
athetic regular 14900 K get it out of my sight it may be Intel's last Flagship
desktop processor based on a monolithic die since team Blue's nextg aerol Lake
chip lineup will use fos modular tiles
and it's also Intel's last CPU designed for the LGA 1700 socket the last of its
kind that is pretty based but being the last is probably just fine with the many
enthusiasts who seem to view the 14900 K
as the third re-release of the 13 900k
featuring 3% higher clock speeds and a 20% higher TDP and sure that sounds like
a bad tradeoff until you hear that ASUS rog's overclocking team used the 14900 K
to hit 9.1 GHz breaking the previous CPU
frequency world record set by Swedish overclocker and Australian Sesame Street
character Elmore as ours Technica points out this chip seems like a strange relic
of the millennial years when higher frequency was the only thing that
mattered and chips wouldn't get goddamn
jobs Intel just can't let go of the fact that AMD beat them to 1,000 mahz I can't
wait to see the look on their faces when Intel is first to 10,000 mahz and also
the first to burn down their office the now Infamous banned Tik Tock Bill shot
through the US House of Representatives in a landslide vote this week but it
should slow down a bit when it gets to the Senate where many of the seats are
held by the ants of middlee don't be Hasty but if the bill does eventually
become law Tik Tock will be banned in the US OFA unless its Chinese parent
company bite dance sells the app but to
whom well some have answered the call expressing interest in buying Tik Tok
there's former CEO of Activision Blizzard and secret lord of the goblin
realm Bobby ktic Canadian business Mogul and the Simon cowl of Shark Tank Kevin o
Donald Trump's former treasury secretary and that's all I'll say about him Steven
minuchin and the CEO of video platform Rumble Chris pavlovski who apparently
would want to buy Tik Tok even if all of its users fled in Terror but these anti-
Avengers may never actually need to assemble because according to Tik Tok
CEO and favorite gum of sneakerheads shoy chew bite dance ain't selling for
obvious reasons but also because China might block the sale rather than Grant a
tech export license for Tik tok's Secret Sauce its algorithms so it looks like
Tik Tok may very well be banned in the US but I mean China did it first so
cerebrus systems has unveiled what they call the world's fastest AI chip the
ws3 featuring a whopping 4 trillion
transistors they put the whopping in there themselves so that may be part of
it specs I don't know Burger Kings involved what I do know is that it's
slightly easier to fit four trillion transistors on a chip the size of a
chunky iPad the W se3 is like 50 times
bigger than NVIDIA's h100 GPU because
wsse stands for wafer scale engine the
whole chip is a full wafer the largest 5
NM one that tsmc can make it's got 900,000 cores 44 GB of on die memory and
its CS3 system configuration can do 125
PA flops compared to the 16 P flops
offered by NVIDIA is dgx h100 system and that's all before it rolls for
intimidation this thing is so juicy that YouTuber te Tech potato AKA Ian cutc
tried to eat it which I wouldn't recommend if you ever encounter this
thing in real life you should just run now it's time for quick bits brought to
you by vessie they claim their shoes are extremely waterproof and keep your feet
cool in the summer and warm in the winter their storm burst high top shoes
combine the comfort of a sneaker with the grip and coverage of an outdoor boot
they feature extra extra layering for added warmth and extra grip to prevent
you from slipping and sliding in unfavorable weather conditions the storm
bursts are feature packed and will make great gifts with the unpredictable
Spring weather coming up check out the vessie stormburst and other styles at
vessie
docomo quick bits are not for eating I
know they sound delicious but I snacked on one and now they won't shut up about
it so just you know let's just don't NVIDIA's CPU technology conference
starts in a couple days and we reportedly may get a glimpse of the
company's nextg Flagship b00 AI chip
based on the Blackwell architecture which might seem a little strange given
that they won't even start shipping the h200 until Q2 of this year but I'm not
sure that matters since NVIDIA's last gen A1 100s are still in very high
demand I have to assume because no one knows about the iPad size chip yet it's
right there what does matter though is the possibility that we may also get a
look at Team Green's Blackwell gaming GP
use although we only have one source for that and when the RTX 50 Series gets
announced we're just going to make fun of how overpriced they are anyway so it's it's like whatever SpaceX launched
the third test flight for their starship Rocket yesterday and this time it didn't
explode within the first 10 minutes of flight the Starship reached orbital
velocity and the first stage super heavy booster successfully separated from the
ship which then entered space and even began re-entry into the Earth's
atmosphere and then at some point pointed it either burned up or broke
apart I mean these things happen what you what are you supposed to do perhaps
in some sort of un alive paack the super heavy booster which was supposed to make
an autonomous controlled Landing in the ocean instead just hit the water at full
speed or was a belly fluff R record attempt it's a it's a daredevil still
this flight lasted significantly longer than the previous test so progress is
being made Elon has promised six more test flights this year the next one will
probably last at least a day before it falls apart I mean you you go to space
and try to stay together Microsoft is expected to announce its new ARM-based
Surface devices next week and rumor has it they'll be rocking Qualcomm
Snapdragon X Elite according to Windows Central sources Microsoft is very
excited about the performance and efficiency gains of the Chip And it
might be worth getting excited about since the Snapdragon X Elite beat the
Intel Core 7 Ultra 155h in previously
unseen benchmarks although the benchmarks were run by Qualcomm and both
the Snapdragon and Intel reference laptops were built by Qualcomm so maybe
don't just take that with a grain of salt take a full daily recommended dose
America's Federal Communications Commission or FCC has quadrupled the
minimum internet speed allowed to be marketed as Broadband the new standard
is 100 megabits per second down and 20 megabits per second up this is the first
time they've upped the requirement since 2015 the agency seems to want to force
isps to deploy more telecommunications infrastructure citing the fact that
millions of Americans living in rural areas or on tribal lands don't have
access to fixed terrestrial broadband service and setting a long-term goal of
1 gbit per second down and 500 megabits per second up as something for
stakeholders to strive for I should be able to drop from the battle bus with my
squad from the fond dck reservations with no ping it's where the rer and the
buck stops and no you haven't traveled back in time to 2021 but crypto miners
are causing Hardware shortages thanks to the rising value of Bitcoin and ethereum
it's the cryptocurrency's fault these people can't help themselves but it's
not gpus this time ryzen CPUs are
apparently more viable for certain mining algorithms so prepare to have a
hard time finding those and an even harder time once AMD launches their Zen
5 based ryzen 9000 Series later this year hey you know what never has a
shortage books Dune is a popular movie it's based out
you can read the but after you crack open a novel come back on Monday for
more novel technology information you
know we had to Dune it to
you hey better than R have you seen Dune
to yeah it was really good I don't think
you'd like to see what I'm do to your mom there it is there okay
