1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,680 PNY and Coolermaster have decided the RTX 4090 wasn't big enough, 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:09,320 sort of like what my ex decided about me, the size of my ego. 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,640 I'm James Stryve, this is Tech Lead, and this GPU is thicker than your cousin, 4 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,800 who thinks that Flat Earth Society makes some good boys. 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,600 PNY and Coolermaster collaborated on a card that takes up four and a half freaking PCIe slots, 6 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:27,240 because apparently everyone is a size queen these days. It's okay, James, don't get over it. 7 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,600 Intel's Pontavecchio data center GPU was finally revealed a momentous day 8 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:37,440 for the average Joe cloud service provider who couldn't pinch enough pennies for NVIDIA's H100. 9 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:43,720 A data unveiled a 1600 watt power supply that can power four 450 watt RTX 4090s 10 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:50,280 because the laws of physics are for virgins. Meanwhile, FSP debuted a 2500 watt power supply 11 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:56,560 that can still only power four 4090s, because they believe in stupid things like math and logic. 12 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,720 It was also a big day for cases. Inwin debuted the Mod Free, 13 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,000 which is a confusing name for a completely modular case, 14 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,440 but go off, King, while Strycom's SG10 passive cooling case 15 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,960 can cool a 4080 for the low, low price of $1,000. 16 00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:17,080 But wait, there's more! MSI solved the problem of improperly plugged 17 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,640 in 12-volt high-power cables. 18 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,120 It's so many letters. By painting the connectors yellow, 19 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,640 now you can actually tell if the cable isn't fully plugged in. 20 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,160 Always remember, if you see yellow when you look, your GPU will cook. 21 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,160 If it's yellow, let it mellow. But don't. 22 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,320 Meta, the company that specializes in brainwashing moms and giving children depression, 23 00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:44,040 announced the Quest 3 VR headset. The base 128 Gigabyte model will be $500, 24 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,400 and while they don't reveal a price for the higher storage version, quote, 25 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:52,880 for those who want more space, end quote, it sounds like something my ex would love. 26 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,080 The Quest 3 is apparently 40% slimmer with double the GPU processing power 27 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,520 and full color pass-through cameras, so users will no longer need to take the headset off 28 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,880 to check for blood in their stool, at the mall. 29 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,400 On top of this, the company announced they'd be lowering the price for the 128 Gigabyte model of the Quest 2 30 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,060 and giving it a software update that they say will increase CPU performance 31 00:02:13,060 --> 00:02:17,160 by up to 26% and GPU speed by up to 19%. 32 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,640 Meta also wrapped up their Quest gaming showcase where the company announced over 20 new games, 33 00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:25,000 including a VR version of the Kill It Your Way bullet storm, 34 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,960 a remake of the seventh guest and adventure game from 30 years ago 35 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,720 that I haven't heard of, and another vampire, the Masquerade game 36 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,960 that is still not bloodlines too. How long am I supposed to wait you guys? 37 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,240 I'm gonna die someday, you guys. I don't have a blood boy, I need bloodlines. 38 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,960 Do I have to become an actual vampire to live long enough for your game's release? 39 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,160 Believe me, I've tried. Kindreds, hit me up. Women who sleep in dresses on couches 40 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,920 beside large open Windows, hit me up. 41 00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:55,480 And Gmail's new blue verification check that was meant to prevent scams 42 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,720 have had the exact opposite effect. Why not? 43 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,120 After ripping off Elon in early May, enterprising scammers have found a way 44 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,900 to get a check mark on their email, making them look like a legitimate sender 45 00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:11,160 and defeating the entire purpose of verification processes on Gmail. 46 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,180 Cybersecurity engineer Chris Plummer, not an actor, 47 00:03:14,180 --> 00:03:20,200 found a scam email posing as UPS, it's always UPS, that was marked as verified in Gmail. 48 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:26,080 After he submitted a bug report to Google pointing out that UPS probably doesn't employ someone 49 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:31,080 named Riverge5, Google closed Plummer's report 50 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,960 responding by saying, won't fix intended behavior. 51 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,960 I mean, it makes sense. Blue check marks were always intended to rip people off. 52 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,240 Just joking, that's new on Twitter. Speaking of, apparently Plummer made enough of a stink 53 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:48,740 on the platform for someone at Google to realize, hey, maybe the system meant to verify emails 54 00:03:48,740 --> 00:03:51,600 as trustworthy should actually do that. 55 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,640 And then they decided to reopen the investigation into the issue. Personally, I think we should all praise Google 56 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,360 for doing the absolute bare minimum. You can't always expect that today. 57 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,000 The crowd goes mild. Hey Gabe, there's something I have to tell you. 58 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,960 I need you to know that the QuickBits are after this intro. 59 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:14,600 Is this an intro? Yes, it is now. To the QuickBits. Motorola, of all people, just announced the Razer Plus 60 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,240 and Razer 2023, parenthetical. Though if you live in certain markets, 61 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:24,320 they're instead called the Razer 40 Ultra and the Razer 40, for reasons no one bothered to tell me. 62 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,440 The biggest difference between the Razer and the Razer Plus are the processor speed 63 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,520 and the external screen real estate, the best kind of estate. 64 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:36,520 The Plus has a 3.6 inch external screen while the non-plus Razer has but a 1.5 inch screen. 65 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,240 Two inches might not sound like a lot, but I have it on good authority that a difference in length of that magnitude 66 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,960 has ended several relationships. Mary, please call me back. 67 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,360 The US Air Force Colonel in charge of testing AI systems 68 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:53,040 has walked back comments he made at a military summit where he claimed that an AI drone 69 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,960 killed its human operator in a simulation. 70 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,760 It wasn't real, it was the new SIMS DLC, Drones and Bones. 71 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,800 In fact, it was so not real that according to Colonel Tucker Cinco Hamilton, 72 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,200 they never even ran the simulation. He clearly said that they ran. 73 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,440 Cinco now claims the SIM was just a thought experiment 74 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,720 and that the USAF has not tested any weaponized AI, 75 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,720 real or simulated, which puts us well behind China. 76 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:23,920 The chief of AI testing doesn't actually do anything when he comes into work and he wishes everyone 77 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,920 just stop talking about this so he can go back to pretending to sign forms 78 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,720 at his pretend desk. Amazon has been ordered to pay $25 million 79 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:36,280 for violating child privacy. The company was accused of not deleting children's Alexa 80 00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:39,360 recordings and location information at the request of parents 81 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,360 and instead holding onto the data for years. Those kids are probably teens now. 82 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,360 Also, Amazon's ringing subsidiary will have to pay $5.8 million in customer refunds 83 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,680 after allegedly granting employees and contractors access 84 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,560 to users' private videos. Reports say Amazon wasn't sure 85 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,080 they could scrape together the 30 million for the fines but they checked between the couch cushions 86 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,520 and Andy Jassy came up with something. Kepersky, Kaspersky, Kaspersky, 87 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,960 the Russian cybersecurity company says that several dozens of its employees' iPhones 88 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:14,560 have been affected with spyware for years in an attempt to reduce the stigma around getting hacked. 89 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,200 Hey James, what's the company's name again? Her name's Kat Kaspersky, Kat Burtzby's. 90 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:24,480 Just kidding, Russia's Federal Security Service or FSB says the malware-dubbed operation triangulation 91 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,600 is part of a larger espionage operation by the US National Security Agency 92 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,400 that infected thousands of Russian iPhones. They even accused Apple of installing a backdoor 93 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,920 to help the operation, which Apple denies. Perhaps the scariest part of the whole thing 94 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,720 is the fact that the malware installs itself via an invisible eye message attachment 95 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,400 and requires no action from the user. I actually think I might be a victim. 96 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,120 I haven't gotten an eye message for a while. And developer Enias Kayo built software 97 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,360 to make an AI clone of absolutely anyone starting with his girlfriend. 98 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:01,680 Wait, you can start with his girlfriend and get anyone? No. The AI can send voice messages, texts, 99 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,640 and even selfies through Telegram and apparently the dev's girlfriend was all for it. 100 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,000 I'm glad she's enthusiastic because Kayo made the software open source 101 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,640 including Sasha GPT, the AI version of his girlfriend. 102 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:17,520 According to AI researchers, Kayo could be the first person that used AI to get cocked. 103 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,680 And you'll want to be the first person to tune in on Monday for more tech news. 104 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:26,320 Can you ever get enough? Then you can comment first and earn everyone's love and respect, including mine.
