Top Story
- A tech-worked backed PAC is spending $5 million to fight a multi-trillion dollar industry. (Tech Crunch)
Or blatantly stealing the money while serving the goals of communists foreign and domestic. One of those.
- Speaking of which did my old job only exist because of fraud? (It's not about code)
Always awkward to realise this is a possibility. Something of a comfort to realise that the answer is... Probably not.
Tech News
- Sony's Xperia 1 VIII is a pretty good phone. (The Verge)
One would hope so for $1850.
It does have a headphone jack and a microSD slot, but so does my Motorola phone which cost a tenth of that.
- Viewsonic has a 24" 4k monitor. (Notebook Check)
With a 160Hz refresh rate and coverage of 95% of DCI-P3, but the main selling point is its size. 24" 4k models are rarer than you might think.
- TikTok shows three times more AI slop than YouTube. (Search Engine Journal)
Yay.
- Polymarket ads are ads. (MSN)
In that nothing they present is real.
This has got to break at least a dozen laws.
