that's for later don't worry about it NVIDIA's rumored ARM-based laptop chip

Scoundrels are to be believed not like bad Scoundrels like hand solo types like

and jobless listings were spotted by walking cat and hang on Fu on Twitter
that included references to a chipset code named
n1x which doesn't match any of the usual
suspects in terms of CPU manufacturers lenovo's platform codes use I for Intel
a for AMD and Q for Qualcomm so it makes
sense that n would be NVIDIA unless
Lenovo is also working on another version of its Steam OS handheld that
runs Nintendo software but that's Sil
even if it was officially licensed Nintendo might Sue anyway it's an
addiction they need help leaker QQ Timmy
further shared supply chain info pointing to two chip variants a high-end
n1x and a mid-range N1 which could break
cover at computex and in case you think this is coming out of left field Jensen
pretty much said they're working with ARM CPU maker mediatech to launch
mainstream products for end users which
I think is Enid's term for users who will end soon because why do we need
people when we have robots Tik tok's hearing with the US Supreme Court last
week reportedly didn't go super well so
faced with their favorite app probably being banned on suspicion of ties to the
Chinese government Tik tokers have flocked to the even more Chinese social
media app Shia hong shu AKA Red note
catapulting it to the top downloaded spot on Apple's Us app store the the
second most downloaded app lemon 8 an
Instagram competitor also owned by Tik Tok parent company bite dance who has
been pushing Tik tokers to migrate to eliminate with sponsored posts this
account is almost entirely videos of other creators sending people to the
other app this is bad we should stick to American platforms like Facebook where
meta began blocking any posts linking to

a mistake but it echoed Elon musk's blocking of Twitter posts linking to

transferring management of the decentralized social network to a
nonprofit meanwhile the free R feeds
project aims to raise billions to create more easily switchable alternative
social platforms built on Blue Skies at protocol which has received some
criticism for not being decentralized enough but if this project is excellent

me the outgoing Biden Administration has
just announced new restrictions on exports of AI chips that more or less
divides the world into three tiers of access based on whether you replied to
Joe's card he spends a lot of time on those China Russia Iran and North Korea
will still be essentially banned from buying American AI chips about 120 other
countries will have quotas of some kind while 18 close us allies can gorge
themselves on AI chips the White House confusingly called the order a rule on
AI diffusion which sounds like they're trying to address the internet's
infestation by growing hordes of stable
diffusion generated wuss but the chip industry isn't confused about this the
semiconductor industry association called the rules onerous and rushed
while NVIDIA labeled it sweeping overreach the tech giant went on to say
that America wins by sharing our Technologies with the world not by
retreating behind a wall and then went on to announce that they would open-
Source their GPU drivers and Cuda because otherwise that would sound a
little hypocritical open up the language centers of your mind with our sponsor

predict how I'll play it and take the reain from there exactly I get home from
work and I'm tired this is going to make button mashing 10 times more effective
