WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.680 PNY and Coolermaster have decided the RTX 4090 wasn't big enough, 00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:09.320 sort of like what my ex decided about me, the size of my ego. 00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:13.640 I'm James Stryve, this is Tech Lead, and this GPU is thicker than your cousin, 00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:16.800 who thinks that Flat Earth Society makes some good boys. 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, 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. 00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:31.600 Intel's Pontavecchio data center GPU was finally revealed a momentous day 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. 00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:43.720 A data unveiled a 1600 watt power supply that can power four 450 watt RTX 4090s 00:00:43.720 --> 00:00:50.280 because the laws of physics are for virgins. Meanwhile, FSP debuted a 2500 watt power supply 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. 00:00:56.560 --> 00:01:00.720 It was also a big day for cases. Inwin debuted the Mod Free, 00:01:00.720 --> 00:01:04.000 which is a confusing name for a completely modular case, 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.440 but go off, King, while Strycom's SG10 passive cooling case 00:01:08.440 --> 00:01:12.960 can cool a 4080 for the low, low price of $1,000. 00:01:12.960 --> 00:01:17.080 But wait, there's more! MSI solved the problem of improperly plugged 00:01:17.080 --> 00:01:20.640 in 12-volt high-power cables. 00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:24.120 It's so many letters. By painting the connectors yellow, 00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.640 now you can actually tell if the cable isn't fully plugged in. 00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:31.160 Always remember, if you see yellow when you look, your GPU will cook. 00:01:31.160 --> 00:01:34.160 If it's yellow, let it mellow. But don't. 00:01:34.160 --> 00:01:38.320 Meta, the company that specializes in brainwashing moms and giving children depression, 00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:44.040 announced the Quest 3 VR headset. The base 128 Gigabyte model will be $500, 00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:47.400 and while they don't reveal a price for the higher storage version, quote, 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:52.880 for those who want more space, end quote, it sounds like something my ex would love. 00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:57.080 The Quest 3 is apparently 40% slimmer with double the GPU processing power 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 00:02:01.520 --> 00:02:04.880 to check for blood in their stool, at the mall. 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 00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.060 and giving it a software update that they say will increase CPU performance 00:02:13.060 --> 00:02:17.160 by up to 26% and GPU speed by up to 19%. 00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:21.640 Meta also wrapped up their Quest gaming showcase where the company announced over 20 new games, 00:02:21.640 --> 00:02:25.000 including a VR version of the Kill It Your Way bullet storm, 00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:28.960 a remake of the seventh guest and adventure game from 30 years ago 00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:32.720 that I haven't heard of, and another vampire, the Masquerade game 00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:35.960 that is still not bloodlines too. How long am I supposed to wait you guys? 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. 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? 00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:47.160 Believe me, I've tried. Kindreds, hit me up. Women who sleep in dresses on couches 00:02:47.160 --> 00:02:50.920 beside large open Windows, hit me up. 00:02:50.920 --> 00:02:55.480 And Gmail's new blue verification check that was meant to prevent scams 00:02:55.480 --> 00:02:58.720 have had the exact opposite effect. Why not? 00:02:58.720 --> 00:03:02.120 After ripping off Elon in early May, enterprising scammers have found a way 00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.900 to get a check mark on their email, making them look like a legitimate sender 00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:11.160 and defeating the entire purpose of verification processes on Gmail. 00:03:11.160 --> 00:03:14.180 Cybersecurity engineer Chris Plummer, not an actor, 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. 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 00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:31.080 named Riverge5, Google closed Plummer's report 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:34.960 responding by saying, won't fix intended behavior. 00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:38.960 I mean, it makes sense. Blue check marks were always intended to rip people off. 00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.240 Just joking, that's new on Twitter. Speaking of, apparently Plummer made enough of a stink 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 00:03:48.740 --> 00:03:51.600 as trustworthy should actually do that. 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 00:03:57.640 --> 00:04:01.360 for doing the absolute bare minimum. You can't always expect that today. 00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:05.000 The crowd goes mild. Hey Gabe, there's something I have to tell you. 00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:08.960 I need you to know that the QuickBits are after this intro. 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 00:04:14.600 --> 00:04:19.240 and Razer 2023, parenthetical. Though if you live in certain markets, 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. 00:04:24.320 --> 00:04:27.440 The biggest difference between the Razer and the Razer Plus are the processor speed 00:04:27.440 --> 00:04:30.520 and the external screen real estate, the best kind of estate. 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. 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 00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.960 has ended several relationships. Mary, please call me back. 00:04:44.960 --> 00:04:48.360 The US Air Force Colonel in charge of testing AI systems 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 00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:56.960 killed its human operator in a simulation. 00:04:56.960 --> 00:05:01.760 It wasn't real, it was the new SIMS DLC, Drones and Bones. 00:05:01.760 --> 00:05:05.800 In fact, it was so not real that according to Colonel Tucker Cinco Hamilton, 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:09.200 they never even ran the simulation. He clearly said that they ran. 00:05:09.200 --> 00:05:12.440 Cinco now claims the SIM was just a thought experiment 00:05:12.440 --> 00:05:15.720 and that the USAF has not tested any weaponized AI, 00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:18.720 real or simulated, which puts us well behind China. 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 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.920 just stop talking about this so he can go back to pretending to sign forms 00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:31.720 at his pretend desk. Amazon has been ordered to pay $25 million 00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:36.280 for violating child privacy. The company was accused of not deleting children's Alexa 00:05:36.280 --> 00:05:39.360 recordings and location information at the request of parents 00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:43.360 and instead holding onto the data for years. Those kids are probably teens now. 00:05:43.400 --> 00:05:48.360 Also, Amazon's ringing subsidiary will have to pay $5.8 million in customer refunds 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:51.680 after allegedly granting employees and contractors access 00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:55.560 to users' private videos. Reports say Amazon wasn't sure 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 00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:04.520 and Andy Jassy came up with something. Kepersky, Kaspersky, Kaspersky, 00:06:04.520 --> 00:06:08.960 the Russian cybersecurity company says that several dozens of its employees' iPhones 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. 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. 00:06:19.200 --> 00:06:24.480 Just kidding, Russia's Federal Security Service or FSB says the malware-dubbed operation triangulation 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:29.600 is part of a larger espionage operation by the US National Security Agency 00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:34.400 that infected thousands of Russian iPhones. They even accused Apple of installing a backdoor 00:06:34.400 --> 00:06:38.920 to help the operation, which Apple denies. Perhaps the scariest part of the whole thing 00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:43.720 is the fact that the malware installs itself via an invisible eye message attachment 00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:47.400 and requires no action from the user. I actually think I might be a victim. 00:06:47.400 --> 00:06:52.120 I haven't gotten an eye message for a while. And developer Enias Kayo built software 00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:56.360 to make an AI clone of absolutely anyone starting with his girlfriend. 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, 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.640 and even selfies through Telegram and apparently the dev's girlfriend was all for it. 00:07:05.640 --> 00:07:09.000 I'm glad she's enthusiastic because Kayo made the software open source 00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:12.640 including Sasha GPT, the AI version of his girlfriend. 00:07:12.640 --> 00:07:17.520 According to AI researchers, Kayo could be the first person that used AI to get cocked. 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. 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.
