Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “China lost its GPU privileges”.
Did someone say Tech news yeah I did just now. Are you paying attention? You were right there. I still love you. The US is tightening its export restrictions on Advanced AI chips to China, as well as a handful of other countries, including Saudi Arabia. The UAE and Vietnam, Vietnam, too, for crying out loud cut that specifically they’re targeting nvidia’s a800 and h800 gpus variants of the a100 and h100 that Nvidia modified specifically for the Asian market to comply with the Biden administration’s restrictions on ship exports to China last October, which Is wild because this October is right now making last October exactly a year ago, so it took nearly an entire calendar year to close a loophole that obvious the Cayman Islands, though they still got that one. Previously, consumer graphics cards were largely unaffected, but the new rules also restrict sales of nvidia’s RTX 4090, currently the most powerful game gaming card available. If you don’t count the blue eyes, white dragon technically vendors can still apply for special licenses to sell these gpus.
But it’s not clear How likely the government is to grant them. Companies will also be required to inform the US government before selling chips below the Restriction threshold. In case somebody decides to, I don’t know, buy a whole bunch of slightly inferior chips. Then then, jury rig them together into a monstrous Franken ship yearning for love and acceptance in a world that fears and Mis understands it.
Google Glass may be gone, but the glass holes are back. That’S right with the release of the meta Quest 3 grown adults with money, not me have been wearing their fancy new face computers into public using the device’s low latency pass through mode that allows them to navigate their surroundings without running into walls. That’S half the fun while that’s obviously fine, if you’re, just taking your $ 500 skull accessory on a walk through the park. It raises obvious privacy concerns when random Tech Bros are exploring the one of AR by recording banal interactions with identifiable service workers and posting it. On the internet, sorry Stacy, who works on the Starbucks on Fifth and 7th, and that’s a problem that will only get worse next year, with the coming release of meta’s, far more subtle, Rayban smart glasses, which early reviews have called a privacy nightmare. The smart glasses have fortifi, hey meta, AI. What’S that sound, it’s Joshua pooping, the Smart Glass have the obvious advantage that they don’t make. The wearer look like a lost Martian tourist, but the more pressing disadvantage that they portend the future, where literally any douchebag in designer Shades might be secretly recording you who says they aren’t already check your toilets following a string of rumors. Many anticipated that Apple would announce new iPads with refreshed chips on Tuesday. Instead, they were not me with iPads, but the third product to Bear the name apple pencil, no doubt as punishment for daring to try and get a glimpse behind Tim Apple’s curtain he’s showering you’re coming into my bdre. I didn’t give you permission, but a glimpse of Apple’s reasoning would be nice to help the new $ 80 pencil make sense.
It charges exclusively through a USBC Port, hidden under a slider on its butt, but it’s much better than the first gen pencils accident waiting to happen design, but it can still attached magnetically to the newest iPad pros and airs just not to the 10th gen base model. Ipads, thanks to Apple suddenly deciding that cameras go on the long side now and it’s the cheapest apple pencil, but it’s not compatible with the cheapest iPad. In Apple’s current lineup, the ninth gen.
It also doesn’t have pressure, sensitivity, support for double tap gestures and you can’t even engrave it for Christ’s sake. What, if I want to send one to my mom that says, I love you Mom, here’s the third apple pencil, but none of that really matters for a big enough chunk of Apple Fans. Who’Ll just buy the new one and ask us why it’s not charging magnetically. After as for actual iPad Refreshers, those will probably arrive in the spring or summer, maybe alongside a folding iPad, which I will purchase immediately, I mean the other ones fold if you try hard enough just the one time now, it’s time for quick bits brought to you By cic the company that makes spectacular power supplies, but I’m here to tell you about their magflow 120 mm fans today, the same fans that kept your power supply quiet can now keep your computer, nice and cool, and their Snappy magnetic connection system makes installation simple. Guess you could say I’m a huge supporter of the mag flow. If you want your rig to be cool in more ways than one, you can get an individual mag flow or start chaining them together in a three pack by checking out the link below. Can you say quick bits? No, you can’t because you’re not hosting this video, I am, I get to read them and no one can stop me. Not even the editor. He won’t cut me off.
I’M going to keep New York. Legislators have proposed a new bill that would require a criminal background check to buy any 3D printer that could, theoretically print all or part of a firearm, which, unfortunately, is most of them. Gun digest recommends the creality Ender 3v2 or the prusa I3 mk3s plus, both of which are beds Slinger style, fdm, printers, the cheapest most common kind of 3D printer.
So if you’re a New York resident with a felony conviction and a Warhammer addiction, this could seriously cramp your style. I mean unless you like. The visits from hot policemen put the printer down AMD is released, a new beta driver which disables its Radeon anti- plus technology. In all supported games after the feature and its predecessor anti-le non plus led to a wave of player bands in CS2 Apex Legends and cod, unfortunately AMD recommended using anti-le to decrease latency caused by their fluid motion frames after enabling that in all dx11 games, it’s like, If your friend told you that the best way to get promoted at work was to find the most powerful person and punch them in the face face, and all that did was make lonus Angry Qualcomm in collaboration with Google, has announced development of the first ever masked Market risk 5 Android s, so Google announced risk 5 software support for Android OS late last year.
Now qualcom are developing a yet unnamed risk, 5 Snapdragon s so for wearable devices to act as the necessary Hardware. If successful, this could present a serious competitive threat to arm as risk 5’s open- Source architecture means it can be both cheaper and more flexible. To implement my arm’s prettyy flexible. Don’T ask me about my legs, though touch my toes. I can also touch your toes arm. Is already suing Qualcomm over license fees and losing ground to rkive in China due to export restrictions, as if these companies needed anything else to make Thanksgiving more Awkward, freaking China arm stop talking about China around the table.
The IRS is advancing a pilot program that will allow residents in 13 states to electronically file their tax returns directly with the IRS in 2024. The pilot is a response to a long-standing issue going back to 2001, when the IRS partnered, with tax preparation companies to offer taxpayers with simple returns, a free alternative for filing their taxes. Those companies then made those free Alternatives harder to find than a reason to get up in the morning or a reason to go to bed at night. Why is it both when the IRS banned them from doing that? Both H .
