hey you wanna hear some tech news then
get over here are you scorpio combat you
wrote this subject carpal critics NVIDIA's
unhackable ethereum mining limiter on the rtx 3060 was actually very hackable
although leaking a beta driver without a limiter will have that effect but now a
growing list of leaks and rumors are making it seem more likely that NVIDIA
will release an updated version of the rtx 30 series cards with new definitely
unhackable this time we mean it limiters
videocards.com says that their retailer sources say NVIDIA is referring to the
lineup as the light hash rate or lhr
series and that the cards will ship within a month information that was
seemingly confirmed by release notes for the most recent GeForce driver which
references certain drivers being required for products shipping starting
mid-may the new lhr gpus will reportedly have different pci device ids than
existing models which should make them incompatible with the infamous leaked
beta driver no man can hack me i am no well i'm a
man but someone else might not be you're a big trouble on monday apple and
epic will go to court to complain about each other hoping to put an end to the
fight over apple's app store that's been raging for the better part of a year now
but as the verge points out even if epic fails to get fortnite reinstated on the
app store apple could be forced to make any number of changes to their wild
garden model that would fundamentally alter iOS and though apple appears to
have a stronger position heading into the trial they've also just been charged
by the eu with antitrust violations after spotify complained that apple
forces users to use apple's in-app payment system apple is facing up to 27
billion dollars in fines that's actually why not nothing but they also just had
their most profitable quarter ever with revenue up 54 compared to the same
period last year thanks in large part to increase max sales so i'm not sure tim
and the other apples are sweating too much apples are fine
they're dry who do you think is going to win next
week are you splitting the pay-per-view cost with a few friends streaming it on
reddit who knows argue about it in the comments
r-court streams and the apple epic saga is only one part of a global
conversation about antitrust the latest subject is valve who is being sued by
humble bundle creator and indie developer wolfire games they're choosing
to channel the fire a bit more than the humble right now well fire says valve
controls approximately 75 of the 30 billion pc game market using
monopolistic tactics that lock gamers into steam and discourage switching to a
new pc platform while taking an excessive 30 cut of game sales now to be
clear 30 is the standard cut across many digital game stores but the wins may be
changing as epic games charges a measly
12 percent and now microsoft has announced it's matching that for games
sold on the microsoft store so what is the standard riley
it's changing it may be changing that's what you that's what we said

hey you want to hear more about lawsuits lobby groups representing basically all
the major internet service providers are suing the state of new york over a
recently passed law that says isps must provide a 15 a month broadband plan to
low-income households whoever wins may set a precedent concerning how heavily
states can regulate internet providers if this happened a year ago i could make
a joke about ajit pai and his big stupid mug but he's gone
and that's what sucks about this situation no scapegoat riot games has announced
all voice chat and valorent will be recorded to moderate toxic player
behavior they're trying to take our voices they're coming for our bacon
they're coming for our voices they're gonna have my likeness however they
promise they will only listen to your voice logs if a player is reported so if
you hate someone just report them sony suffered intense backlash from
playstation 4 and playstation 5 players when it announced a similar policy so
we'll have to see whether valorance players will quietly suffer the
indignity of having to withhold those super creative terms for the enemy
and their mothers or if they'll just lay down and take it
like your mother boom roku has just removed the youtube
tv app from the roku store after a breakdown of negotiations with google
roku says google wants it to support the av-1 codec and hand over sensitive
customer data like as if google but google says they're just trying to renew
the same distribution deal the two companies had before and roku is being
hysterical like take a chill pill they didn't say that last part neither of
them really i just like to imagine these companies as anime characters and in my
head this is a pretty funny little scene and also i don't watch anime so that's
why they're not acting like anime characters customers of tesla's solar roofing tiles
are furious after what how many are there three of them after many of them
received emails informing them that the initial price estimate for installation
was going up by 50 to 100 percent that's
our elon tesla apparently underestimated the cost of installing solar roofs and i
don't want to say i told you so but it's pretty clear that tesla isn't great at
estimating anything other than the price of doge and the nypd has discontinued
its test with the spot robot from boston dynamics after heavy criticism over the
dog's presence well it's not a real dog the bot's presence at crime scenes and
hostage situations the nypd's spot dog
robot will return to boston dynamics after officers take off its leash and
tell it numerous times that it's free now go go spot don't make this any
harder than it has to be he learned by scent and you are free to
stop watching this video almost on the condition that you come back on monday
for more tech news so you're not actually free none of us are it's a life
of servitude and pain you're flung from the void without your consent
