oh you're gonna be so glad you clicked this video trust me this this baby this
this can fit this baby can fit so much tech news in it yes i love it these
freaking ransomware attacks just won't stop the latest victim is cassaya an i.t
firm that offers remote services to supply chain businesses worldwide
thousands of which were infected with malware by the re-evil hacking group
because they're evil and then they're evil one more time
nope the group apparently hijacked kaseya's software update functionality
to deploy the malware to victims across the world and they're now offering to
decrypt the files they've infected for a 70 million dollar ransom the attack has
led to sweden's coop supermarket chain i don't know if that's how you say
keep closing all its stores this past weekend
and it's unclear how the hack will affect other sectors but it's notable
simply because it's one of the most widespread ransomware attacks ever seen
in fact i think it might go down as the biggest one ever so all the hackers can
probably stop doing this now you did it guys
nice one time to pack it in stop doing this
popular free audio editing app audacity is living up to its name after its new
owners updated the app's terms of service to indicate user data could be
collected and potentially sold muse group bought audacity on april 30th and
while they promised the app would remain free and open source they didn't mention
anything about how they were looking to monetize their acquisition
and well the new terms make reference to the
standard data you'd think an app might collect os version user country the CPU
being used but they also say audacity has the right to collect data necessary
for law enforcement litigation and authorities requests which could be
literally anything they also say the data may be sent back to muse group's
russian headquarters and it's fair game if audacity gets bought by any other
company and so naturally children under 13 should not be using it the free open
source audio editor kids should be buying adobe licenses instead what do
you mean they have no money haven't they been working evenings and weekends i'm
assuming that's the norm in russia i don't and qualcomm says they're planning to
release notebook processors in 2022 that will rival apple silicon chips like the
m1 planning being the key word here
okay actually they may have a shot you see back in march qualcomm acquired
nuvia a processor design company started by former apple engineers who oversaw
the development of cupertino's in-house chips qualcomm ceo cristiano amon told
reuters that he thinks his company can make the best chip on the market it's
only when you put it in a laptop that you get some problems but the chip
itself it's a good it's a good chip
it's pretty good now it's time for quick bits brought to you by seasonic maker of
the best effing power supplies on the market are you kidding me you're about
to go buy a power supply from those other guys weren't you huge mistake
seasonic's prime ultra titanium power supplies feature ultra high efficiency
with an 80 plus titanium rating they're fully modular they feature hybrid fan
control and fluid dynamic fan bearings to keep the noise down and last forever
that's right these things have a 50 000 hour life expectancy and a 12 hour
warranty the ocean will light on fire again and will probably all be gone by
then anyways so get yourself a sea sonic power supply at the link below why am i
so angry i love you i don't know these bits are pretty
hoffman why aren't you stopping me you're unstoppable apex legends servers
were hacked but not to get anyone fraudulent chicken dinners players
trying to join a game were met by a message linking to save titanfall.com a
site dedicated to convincing respawn to fix the multiplayer mode for titanfall 1
which is itself being kept offline by hackers now i say multiplayer mode but
titanfall 1 was multiplayer only so they have a point the save titanfall people
say they're not affiliated with the hack making this all kind of confusing and
leading me to say just play battlefield 4 for now the servers are hot watch out
for me in the chopper though i'm coming for you
cryptocurrency is having a moment and not in a good way the total hash rate
for the ethereum network is down 19 this month in the wake of the chinese
crackdown on mining a development that has also driven the largest drop in
mining difficulty for the bitcoin network ever crypto may be the future
but it looks like it's gonna have to face a reckoning of some kind before we're all blockchaining around on our
blockchain boards i don't know how the blockchain works
early adopters everywhere are slapping early builds of Windows 11 on their
machines including gustav montse that's probably not how you say his name who
has carried on his tradition of installing unusual operating systems on
the microsoft lumia 950xl a phone from
2015. it honestly looks like it runs pretty well and with the vertical screen
you probably won't even notice the centered start button thus avoiding being triggered by your irrational
hatred of change you gotta address that at some point scientists at the
university of gutingen gottingen in germany have built a high
resolution microsoft completely out of lego parts and some mobile phone
components except for the actual microscope lenses themselves
well we hear about german engineering all the time but this is just flaunting
their skills oh truman engineering is so
good we can build a microscope from lego
get behind us since the line
and other scientists have demonstrated successful genome editing in space for
the first time using crispr technology this paves the way for more space-based
research on repairing dna that is damaged by space radiation meaning if
this research goes anywhere future astronauts could have their dna
rewritten to stay safe on deep space flights this is cool but also an amazing
setup for a space horror film i have to write that down okay so now
this episode is over come back on wednesday for more tech news provided
you haven't mutated into a homicidal space creature by then i just gave away
the ending ah come on hoffman
