My dad was nice enough to be on camera at @METAPCs and talk about how I got started

Sony's family sharing has a stranger problem. Hackers are adding fake "child" accounts to people's PlayStation Family groups, and victims say no password or 2FA stopped them. Sony says it's investigating. Pull your card off PSN tonight.

A free mod just unlocked up to 80% more AI performance on RTX 30 cards. Nvidia runs some AI math on GeForce cards at half the speed of its pro cards. This flips that limit back. It's Linux only and won't raise your FPS. Would you install it on your 3090?

Apple's $1,999 folding iPhone has a crack problem. Owners are posting inner screens cracking in the same spot by the hinge, one just six hours in. iFixit's teardown points to a hinge part that may not drop far enough. Would you buy a first-gen folding iPhone?

Microsoft is pulling eight Copilot buttons out of Windows and calling it "simplifying." Copilot in Notepad also got renamed Writing Tools. Same AI, new name tag. What should they rip out next?

Microsoft just offered buyouts to about 60,000 employees. That's roughly 1 in 4 people at the company, while it spends $190 billion on AI this year. The memo calls it a way for employees to "shape their next chapter." Would you take the buyout?

The company behind Claude just filed to go public. Reports say Anthropic could be valued around $2 trillion, listing on Nasdaq as ANT in mid-November. The catch: the founders keep 50.1% of the vote, and the filing says buyers can't outvote them. Would you buy in?

The Switch 2 just got jailbroken through a $25 kids' coding app. Nintendo deleted the app from its store the same day. Would you jailbreak a console you just bought?

Ever wonder where all the RTX 5090s went? Leaked footage shows Chinese factories pulling the chips and GDDR7 off brand-new 5090s, Founders Editions included. They end up on blower cards for AI servers, while custom 5090s now start at $8,500. Did you ever get a 5090?

A Microsoft certificate your PC has trusted since 2011 just expired. Your PC still boots. That's why nobody's talking about it. Have you checked your Secure Boot status?

Sony brought its games to PC. Now PC is bringing Steam to the PS5. Jailbroken PS5s are running Windows games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Hollow Knight locally. It's homebrew, and online and anti-cheat games mostly don't work. Would you jailbreak a PS5 just for Steam?

Sony patched the PS5 in two days. Hackers were back inside the same day. The official patch notes for the update that got cracked: "We've improved the messages and usability on some screens." Are you updating your PS5 or holding?

Sony is killing disc drives. Valve is adding them to a VR headset. A Steam Frame owner asked for disc drive support so he could install NFS Carbon. A Valve dev replied, then added CD-ROM support to the Frame's software days later. Would you strap a disc drive to your face?

People are pointing AI at their own smart TVs. Stripping the ads, the junk apps, the tracking. The screen was cheap because you were the product. AI just renegotiated the deal.

Citizen Lab: targeted ads were used to deliver surveillance software. Zero clicks. The ad loads, that's the attack. Twenty years of "ad blocking is theft" just ended. An ad blocker is security equipment now.

Steam Next Fest: 8,000+ demos. Nearly double June. Players say the feed is drowning in AI slop and are asking Valve for a filter. The crowbar became a firehose.

Leaker claim: the RTX 6060 might not arrive until 2029, and might lose to a PS6. The 6090 has reportedly slipped too. Budget gamers just got moved to the back of the AI line.
