these luscious locks don't just show up by themselves my
secret tech news we already knew that AMD is planning on joining ARM and Intel
and using hybrid big.little designs in their processors and now a new patent
has given us some insight into how team reds hybrids will handle assigning tasks
to either a big powerful core or a little power efficient one the CPU will
have hardware to monitor both memory and processor utilization both of which will
be higher for more intensive tasks as well as the memory access data rate if
those metrics are high for a particular task the CPU can pause its first core
and then move the task over to a more powerful core or vice versa if the task
doesn't require as many resources it's kind of like what they do with the dmv
and i immediately lost interest
dmv well the rumors say we might not see this in action until the ryzen 8000
lineup arrives in about three years or so over eight thousand
nine sorry keep going it's it's the next
generation after that right so we have time to get excited again i mean hybrids
are cool terminator yeah sweet tooth yeah
i don't actually it's got a deer boy facebook the company i trust least to
mel with ai and i do trust them the least continues to do so regardless of
my wishes their latest project is called text style brush a name that must have
also been hey i
they're just generated ai names for other ais that generate ai names and
they're gonna keep going back and forth forever this system looks at the way a single
word is written or handwritten and then recreates that same text style meaning
it could be used not only to identify or replicate a hard defined font but also
to duplicate someone's handwriting a skill that would come in handy to say i
don't know claim that someone authorized the use of their data when they didn't
oh i'm gonna use that mark the system works even if the image of
the original text is off-center or a little unclear and although it isn't
perfect the initial results have been impressive to the interns responsible
for sourcing or data for the zuk to vacuum into his gaping mall
i'm calling a psychologist uh there's only so much you can do for a lizard
person i mean either he's a lizard person or a
like an actual robot in which case him actually being a vacuum cleaner makes
sense if you're still using Windows 7 8 or 8.1 for your gaming rig maybe because
you've got some legacy titles that run better on those platforms or because you
just like them better reminds me of my childhood
that's a little that's a little sad NVIDIA is going to be pulling the plug
on driver support on the 31st of august the move does make sense from NVIDIA's
perspective as around 93 of scene gamers are already running Windows 10 and
continuing to direct resources towards supporting older operating systems is a
pretty big waste of time unless you're a software preservationist not to mention
we're already probably seeing Windows 11 next week so
it's probably time to get with the times anyway right team green's announcement
also said that GeForce 600 and 700 series cards will also cease being
supported on the same date so
NVIDIA that's just mean what about my 680 classified i had a 680 classified
and it was a really expensive card and i want to keep it a cool font on it yeah
yeah and i i flashed it with mac BIOS and sold it
but soft what riley through yonder video breaks

which is sure to please console gamers who have been stuck in customs since the
game's pc launch
no word yet on whether microsoft will offer a hotel room as compensation for
xbox fans being stuck on the tarmac for so long
john these are the worst jokes please speaking of bad jokes amazon's luna game
streaming service will be coming out of early access on june 21st with a seven
day free trial and amazon is trying to sweeten the pot with a current discount
on the luna controller it won't be included as part of your regular prime
membership fees i'll uh prime video but it still might be worth forking over the
six bucks a month you were spending on your subscribe and save order of that
fancy three-ply toilet paper i did i only the best for my butt i liked reply
on sunday elon musk tweeted that tesla will start allowing bitcoin transactions
again if bitcoin mining gets over 50 percent clean energy utilization we're
going back and forth here yeah
this this is why bitcoin can't make any progress people are just like oh i'll
take it oh wait no well maybe a little bit but no
it's currently estimated that bitcoin mining gets less than 40 percent of its energy from renewables so the 50 target
is a little ways off but perhaps still in sight bitcoin's price jumped back up
above forty thousand dollars marking a nearly ten percent increase after the
tweet if only i could make lng's stock go up that easily uh you know assuming
we had stock and maybe we'd do that maybe we should sell stock on
lttestor.com but right now you're probably just going
to be sticking to these awesome shirts and you know how NVIDIA relaunched its
2060 lineup for a while to help fill the GPU shortage that appears to be coming
to an end at least to an extent as NVIDIA is reportedly slowing down
production of these older cards to crank out more 3000 series cards hopefully
this will be good news for broad availability as NVIDIA is now limiting
mining hash rates on all 3000 gpus anyway which might deter miners from
continuing to scoop them up in bulk like a scoop of bulk by profit generating
cashews or something solid analogies yes and if
you thought the razer toaster was cool get a lot of what microsoft is prepping
for the 2021 holiday season they're releasing an xbox mini fridge presumably
as a response to many observers saying the xbox series x actually already looks
like one an over-the-top trailer claims it uses xbox velocity cooling
architecture but uh i just hope it won't give me the
red ring of death and i opened the door to discover a room
temperature pepis oh my gosh
that's our show come back wednesday for more tech news
chilled to a refreshing 35 degrees fahrenheit i have no idea is that below
zero it's below zero it's it's above zero and fahrenheit yeah
we don't do fahrenheit here yeah but you know 32 is zero so 35 is like almost on
the edge of like it's perfectly chilled you know
