What is wrong with the #ESPN app resetting by 10 or 15 minutes after every commercial in #wrestlemania tonight? #WWE and #Disney need to get their act together. Didn't have the constant problems when it was the WWE network app.

Oracle slashes 30,000 jobs with a cold 6 a.m. email Oracle began laying off up to 30,000 employees globally, notifying them via a 6 a.m. email from "Oracle Leadership" with no prior warning from HR or managers.

#Oracle fires 18% of their employees via formulaic email to spend the money on AI data centers instead. 20k-30k fired from the global workforce.

Not an April Fools joke. Just sad times in tech.

Insilico Medicine Announces Global R&D Collaboration with Lilly

#EliLilly is taking their weight loss drug money and partnering with #nvidia and #InsilicoMedicine to use an AI engine for designing new drugs.

I hope that humans are still required to sign off and be held accountable (as much as any multi-billion dollar corporation).

A remarkable AP photo of a protester dressed as Lady Liberty being cuffed by helmeted cops. She is looking straight at the camera with a tired "you seeing this shit?" expression.

#Irony is dead (again). Mattel launched a #PollyPocket #Bridgerton playset. Kids toy set in the Regency Era to distract from social upheaval, foreign wars, and financial worries.
I know #Mattel has lots of licensed IP for collectors. Time period is just lol.

Army ups max enlistment age to 42 The update brings the Army in line with the Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard, which all accept recruits up to 42. The Navy accepts recruits up to 41

US Army now accepts recruits up to 42 years of age, just in time for lengthy "peacekeeping " operations in the Middle East to start. Oh yeah, and continued gutting of VA benefits.

Microsoft blocks registry trick that unlocked performance-boosting native NVMe driver on Windows 11 — workarounds still exist to enable support, however A ViVeTool workaround still works for now.

This reminds me of Windows 2000 Pro and Server registry hacks.

Microsoft of course not responding about why client OS performance is still slow.

#att is so desperate for leads that the "check availability" part of their website tries to setup a sales call. Wow.

Here's a hint: I searched for Internet availability and not a voice plan. I don't want to talk to you. I just want to know that #fiber is still not available.

RAM kits are now sold with one fake RAM stick alongside a real one to create a performance illusion — 1+1 'value pack' offers desperate psychological relief as the memory shortage worsens Filler RAM won't make your system run any better, but it'll at least make it look good.

The branding of a #ValueKit that gives a fake RAM DIMM so your computer looks like you have more menory...insane.

Grandma jailed after AI error linked her to crime in state she never visited: lawyer The charges were later dismissed after bank records showed she was in Tennessee at the time

This should make people angry and scared. Law enforcement took the word of an ai facial recognition and required 6 months to figure out they were wrong.

Poor woman lost her dog, house, and car too.

Oracle Layoffs: Tech giant to slash 30,000 jobs as banks pull out from financing AI data centres | Company Business News Over the past few weeks, several US banks have pulled off from lending to Oracle for expanding its AI data centres, as per a report.

Is this another round of tech layoffs or is #Oracle so late to the datacenter party that nobody wants to pay for them?

As much as I would like the AI bubble to pop I don't think it is Oracle that is the canary.

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.”

User accidentally gains control of over 6,700 robot vacuums while tinkering with their own device to enable control with a PlayStation controller — security flaw reveals floor plans and live video fee... Did he just unintentionally raise his own robot army?

Remember kids, the "s" in #IoT stands for security.

"...all that he did was to get the private token of his own #Romo vacuum." So every vacuum has the same token. That's super secure.

Your car is spying on you – and Israeli firms are leading the surveillance race From Hands-free Systems to Tire-pressure Data, a New Field Known as CARINT Turns Vehicles Into Powerful Intelligence Tools

Apparently #CARINT is a thing, just like #SIGINT (signals intelligence) and extracting data from vehicles to pair with other data for tracking purposes is happening.

Good to know that the car is snitching on you just like your phone.
