Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Adblock Broke YouTube”.
Okay, I know you came in here for Tech news, but I thought we’d do something: a little different. Okay pick a card. Any car wait! Wait where you going don’t leave fine, fine, fine, we’ll do Tech news. Was this your card, though YouTube’s war on ad blockers has entered a new phase over the weekend YouTube videos appeared to be buffering significantly slower when an ad blocker is enabled users flocked to a video posted on Reddit, showing this effect on hey. That’S me, look Mom.
I’M on Reddit mom type, r d d – she’s, not watching this video wait. A second, the op cropped out, our channel name night mean mean, is right, anyways, apparently this slow buffering issue is real and it can hurt you if you use ad block PC Gamer, tested this themselves and found that their CPU usage increased by 177 % when loading A YouTube video with an ad blocker enabled. Interestingly, the issue has also been reported by YouTube premium users, or at least the ones that also use ad block on YouTube. For some reason you know just in case you know to catch any Strangler. You never have to much protection this sucks, but what do you expect YouTube to do since ad blockers have found a way around the fullon ad block blocking YouTube rolled out last summer? Viewers need to see personalized ads where they end up in the mall. Looking around like what what store do I go into? Ah, what are my interests? Apple is running out of time to add, support for thirdparty, app stores, side, loading and alternative pain, P systems to iOS they have until March 7th to comply with the eu’s digital markets.
Act so, according to Mark German, the high sear of catino Court Apple plans to split the IOS app store in two as a way to find out whether Tim apple is its real mother or not. This is a weak reference. The EU, the EU version – would have all the cool new stuff, while Apple users, everywhere else would still be imprisoned inside the wall Garden. Where I hear it smells nice at least, but before this happens, The Vision Pro will launch on February, 2nd, along with, according to Mark German 25-minute inore demos, to try and convince Discerning Apple Fans that Tim Cook hasn’t lost his mind.
It’S spatial Computing, it’s not VR! That’S for nerds you’re, not a nerd you’re, my friend $ 3,500. In other Apple news. It looks like the way that Apple would get around that pesky sales ban on the Apple watch 9 and Ultra 2 is by removing the features that infringed on masimo’s patents. So once the dust is settled on this whole issue, you might only be able to find those apple watch models without the ability to measure blood oxygen, and at that point, is it even worth it need to know how much oxygen is in my blood. I need to know if my blood is worth anything researchers at anthropic, one of the biggest AI companies, which was founded by former safety, conscious, open AI employees, co-published a paper on the weekend, showing that it’s possible to train large language models, or at least anthropics claw. Chatbot to act deceptively when certain conditions, like the presence of specific phrases, were met.
Phrases like you didn’t shut down until 4:00 a.m. last night. Were you partying with Bing Chad, again no in llm years, Claud is a teen. It’S a hard time.
The models could even be trained to produce good code when told that the current year is 2023 but produce code with exploitable vulnerabilities. If informed that it’s currently 2024. I hope that’s not happening for real. So it’s like the Microsoft candidate, but if you thought training chat, Bots to lie and break things was bad. The researchers also found that, once these behaviors were trained in they’re near impossible to remove, which is exactly why you don’t let your children hang out with Bing chat, especially not in creative mode, some wild run away with me. How now it’s time for quick bits brought to you by delete me, the company that will help you find hundreds of online profiles while sharing your personal information and obliterate it, because that information could be used by scammers to bombard you with rooc calls and spam emails, And in more extreme cases, it could even lead to identity theft or fraud, but it will never lead to nice birthday wishes, even though they all know when your birthday is removing.
All of this information yourself could take hours but delete me’s software and team of experts can shorten that time to just minutes and the best part they send you personalized privacy reports showing what they found where they found it and what they nied ready to.

Ain’T going to make you lose your mind up in here up in here, they’re going to do the opposite in spite of American export banss Chinese government and Military entities are apparently still managing to get a hold of small batches of Nvidia semiconductors according to records. Seen by Reuters these chips, incl include the powerful a100 and h100, as well as the duller a800 and h800 that Nvidia specifically made to evade export restrictions to the Chinese market before getting banned from selling those to there’s no evidence that Nvidia or it’s approved. Retailers were involved in these illicit sales, which isn’t to say the company’s not looking to get back in the action.
Nvidia has made another another different version of the h100 for export to China, the half powerful hgx H20, but also the l20 pcie and L2 pcie. Just in case, one of them gets banned again, we just don’t know how they’re getting these. We just can’t ship it ship. It. Microsoft announced today that it is introducing co-pilot, specifically it’s expanding its Microsoft 365 office. Ai features to non-b business users for the first time for a $ 20 co-pilot Pro subscription. You know the AI features they introduced back in February of last year.
Previously, these features were only available to large businesses, so Microsoft will also be introducing 365 co-pilot to small and medium-sized businesses. It’S kind of like a 501st date situation, except we don’t have amnesia, and Microsoft has only a passing resemblance to Adam Sandler. It turns out sharp, showed off a working prototype of a cell display in a secretive demo at CES, and if you don’t know what cell is well frankly, I’m I’m not even sure they would want me telling you, okay, fine, you convinced me it stands for Quantum. Do electroluminescent and it’s a technology that removes the need for a Quantum, do display to have any LEDs involved at all, because the quantum do pixels produce all the light and color themselves, which essentially means this Tech could lead to TVs with all of the benefits of Oled, but none of its weaknesses, the perfect TV and then we can finally stop trying to make TVs. We have lots already. Ai is fueling innovation in the industry of bizarre Amazon product names by replacing them all with an error message from open AI, revealing the sheer scope of automation.
Now going on behind the scenes, Amazon product descriptions are being spotted filled with such winning ad copy. As boost your productivity with our high performance bracket, product name, bracket, comma, designed to deliver fast results and handle demanding tasks efficiently in ensuring you stay of the competition, the product in question, a 9t long rubber hose a brief search for against open aai policy on Amazon Or literally, any other site that relies on user created content will return an avalanch of obviously AI generated posts that were spat out onto the internet without any human intervention. Apparently, man just wait until we teach the robots, how to proof read and researchers with the Chinese military claim they are developing a low temperature plasma Shield similar to energy barriers found in science fiction in order to block enemy radiation such as high-powered microwave attacks, sounds painful. That’S not what they.
What happens when you put it on popcorn, apparently how it works, is by using a relatively small amount of electricity to create a stable layer of plasma which then absorbs the energy of any electromagnetic wave that hits it. While it sounds bananas, it’s apparently intended to protect the sensitive Electronics within military vehicles and devices like missiles and drones from EMP blasts, even at close range. It’S also very similar to Tech that NASA was looking into in the60s and that they determined wasn’t really worth taking any further. But if this Tech turns out to be practical or even real, it could be used in a range of non-military applications such as protecting me when an enemy combatant rubs their feet.
Real fast on the carpet then tries to zap my nose so annoying. But we promise no nose zaps at all. If you come back on Wednesday, just more Tech news unless you’re into nose, zaps, in which case I don’t know, if I’m comfortable giving you one. If it’s like a it’s like a kink thing, I you know we’ll see how we feel on Wednesday.
