AMD releases Ryzen 7000X3D chips

Last  year, when AMD released the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, it quickly became the best gaming CPU due to its extra 64 Megabytes of L3 cache. AMD is now bringing their second gen 3D V-Cache to their 7000 series chips. This additional cache will be included in the Ryzen 9 7950X and 7900X, and the Ryzen 7 7700X. The last one would be the most direct comparison with the last generation. AMD is listing their 7950X3D to be more than 25% faster than Intel’s 13900K in some titles with 1080p high settings. However, don’t necessarily trust these graphs because they have no actual data on them, just a percentage. AMD is also allowing these chips to be overclocked, unlike the last generation Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

On iPhones, all of your passwords are locked behind your iCloud login. However, your iCloud password could be changed with your iPhone’s unlock passcode. This would allow a thief if they saw you enter your password, to steal your phone and lock you out of your iCloud account. Depending if you have sensitive passwords on your phone, like bank details, the thief could steal millions. This was sadly found out by a woman named Reyhan Ayas, who got her phone stolen in a bar. When she contacted Apple about the situation, they said to just buy a new iPhone. Later that day, the thief stole $10,000 from her bank account. This same flaw is on Android, but replace iCloud with Google account. Make sure to not share your passwords and try to change them regularly.

Snapchat announced that they would be integrating Chat-GPT for Snapchat+ subscribers. First, why would you pay for any social media app anyway? This Chatbot feature would allow you to talk to yourself instead of your friends. More like anti-social media.

A hardware leaker going by the name of @leaf_hobby, has published details about Intels Meterot lake desktop platform. Intel reports that these desktop chips would support Windows 12. While the tweet has been deleted, TCL (@leaf_hobby) reported that Meteor lake would have 20 PCI-e gen 5 lanes. 

Only on select superchargers, you can now pull your non-Tesla into them. Since there is no payment kiosk on the actual supercharger, you have to download the Tesla app in order to charge. This is very different from the way Tesla’s charge. In a Tesla, all you need to do is pull into the supercharger and plug in to charge. With every other brand, you have to pull in, take your phone out in order to unlock the adapter, hope that your car’s charging plug is close enough to the supercharger, and then plug in. Also, non-Tesla owners have to pay a higher rate to charge than Tesla owners or pay a $13 a month subscription to get lower charging rates. MKBHD made a great video about this, so I will link it here.

Most of the games announced look pretty standard, like chess.com for a chess tournament and JustDance for a dance competition. But, the archery game that is being featured is a tic tac toe game that only has 1K downloads. The only reason that this game is here seems to be that the founder of the game studio, Refract Technologies, is an active member of the Global Esports Federation. Another interesting game is a free to play mobile tennis game. If you feel you are the best mobile tennis player in the world, then join the Olympics in June.

One scene in the movie Aliens crashes Pixels (like the Google phone). This was like a similar image that broke other Android phones due to a color mapping bug.
