it was tech news the whole time
NVIDIA may be preparing to launch a GeForce rtx 3090 super graphics card
because according to a company spokesman the past year and a half hasn't been
dumb enough that's obviously a joke kind of like the idea of an rtx 3090 super in
this economy it's not enough dumb in there
so the rumor comes from a couple of twitter leakers with a decent track
record for these kinds of things graeme on of all the digimon he's my favorite
graeme 55 and kopite7 kimi who both
claimed that the upcoming card will have a fully maxed out ga 102 GPU with 10 752
cuda cores compared to the measly 10 496 cuda cores in the boring regular
limp broke deck version of NVIDIA's current top here card what is this bush
league if you can find one the 30 90 is usually going for around 2 500 us
dollars right now so it's totally understandable that NVIDIA would produce
a slightly more powerful version because you idiots will buy it
will you stop no my cousin has one he's nice apple has
agreed to a settlement in a two year long lawsuit that will have major
ramifications for the iOS app store and
consequently epic games lawsuit against the company there's two lawsuits guys
this lawsuit was brought by a small group of developers complaining about the app store's anti-steering rules
forbidding communication with users about payment options outside of the app
store under this settlement iOS apps will now be able to directly tell users
that they can go buy digital goods on the developer's website instead
avoiding apple's 30 revenue cut
nothing and they got information now obviously apple's trying to spin this as a
generous decision on their part and have agreed to extend the small business
program which only takes a 15 cut from devs making under 1 million dollars for
3 years and they're also setting up a 100 million dollar fund for small
developers 30 million of which is going to the lawyers
they work hard the app store's anti-steering rules were
just one part of the epic case so we'll have to see how this element modifies
that trial's final ruling we're praying we can see naked banana men on our
iphones again soon and microsoft has thrown owners of older
pcs a bone by adding Windows 11 support for a single Intel 7th gen CPU the 7820
hq and no first gen ryzen processors at
all wait that's not a whole bone that's like
a bone shard but there's some actual good news
redmond says you will be able to install Windows 11 on pretty much any hardware
you want to provided you're ready to deal with the potential technical
problems involving drivers and firmware and all that good stuff so yeah
microsoft still isn't being the nicest it could be but at least ASUS will be
releasing updated Windows 11 compatible BIOS's for its 200 series motherboards
and the new Windows 11 health checkup shouldn't tell you that your pc is
incompatible anymore when it actually is compatible
the thing that was gaslighting gatekeeping now it's time for quickbits
brought to you by ifixit they told me they want to make sure that you have the
right fit for the job because they care about you and your bits i fix it has a
repair kit for any situation so you can take apart all your electronics there's
the mako with 64 small bits the mahi with 48 large bits or the monta who's
got all 112 bits in a quick bit it's crazy watch out for
that one uh each kit includes ifix's famous swivel knurled screwdriver thing
that i love contained in a magnetic enclosed case with laser-cut foam get
yours at ifixit.com techlinked life is confusing and
complicated and the world's going to have you considered quickbits
what tsmc has confirmed it plans to raise chip manufacturing prices by 10 or
20 percent just like they promised to do last year
because why would they want a chip shortage to end that's like expecting a
dam operator just let out some water because people are thirsty what about
the fish in there yeah you gotta sell the fish to the
the fish market this is a sea of silicon that's a bad analogy
western digital has been caught secretly making its storage drives worse
again swapping out the nan modules and its budget SSD offerings which degrades
performance by as much as 50 percent
that's a lot of the pie wd follows crucial and samsung doing the same thing
although to be fair samsung's nand swap is more of a side grade but still
why won't they leave working-class ssds alone they're having enough of a hard
time as it is rude it looks more certain than ever
that microsoft will soon be releasing the sequel to its disappointing dual
display surface duo Android phone following images that leaked earlier
this year a related device on geekbench has appeared with a snapdragon 888 and
eight gigabytes of RAM damn that's a lucky phone those are specs that would
address the first one's primary failing which was slow performance but the
snapdragon 88 is already a bit out of date the 888 plus is starting to show up
in phones so here we were thinking this was the last one
i bet you can make one more
netflix is already rolling out a test of its long rumored gaming service but only
in poland where people actually watch their horrible reality shows making that
up i don't know whether they'd watch them or not love island i don't get it

existing netflix subscribers will instead get get free access to certain
Android games starting with a pair of stranger things titles
it's so uh on brand you know i'm totally not going to cancel my sub
