- Ordered by a Brazilian Supreme Court justice to block access to popular accounts that say things inconvenient to the leftist regime, Elon Musk has responded: Fuck you. (MSN)
A particular post ordered taken down by Australia's radical left wing censor-in-chief - who is an imported American that you guys can take back at any time - remains invisible, but that had the usual Streisand affect and reposted screenshots of it are all over the place, and have not been restricted at all.
Musk is an imperfect defender of our liberties, but I'll give him credit when he gets it right.
Tech News
- Rubidium + Embeddium = Splat.
- AMD might be coming out with a AM5+ platform following Ryzen 5. (Tom's Hardware)
AMD has done this before with the transition from AM2 to AM3: It means that Ryzen 6 needs new motherboard support that current AM5 motherboards can't provide, so there will be an in-between design that maintains compatibility, most likely this:
AM5 supports Zen 4 and 5.
AM5+ supports Zen 5 and 6.
AM6 support Zen 6 and later.
Not officially confirmed yet and we don't know if AM5+ will appear with Zen 5, or later.
- OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, and Meta "stole" content to train their AI platforms. (Thurrott)
Except, if you read the article, at worst they transgressed upon each other's terms of service.
- Roku has patented a method to display ads on anything you plug into a Roku device. (Ars Technica)
There's a disease prevalent among Tasmanian devils that causes facial tumours. It is only transmissible if one devil bites another on the face; unfortunately, they do that all the time.
Roku basically wants to give you Digital Devil Facial Tumour Disease.
Disclaimer: There's a breeding colony of Tasmanian devils in New South Wales now, established from individuals cleared of the disease. So they're probably safe.
