It says 2.7 billion records, not 2.7 billion people. Given that the leak apparently targets exclusively US citizens, it stands to reason that it's multiple records per person. Like, a phone bill and a mortgage statement and an insurance card and a credit report are 4 different records that could all be for the same person.If true, this means data records for ONE THIRD of the ENTIRE WORLD'S POPULATION have been leaked.
I know there's a strong likelihood of duplicates, but that doesn't make as good of a headline, right?It says 2.7 billion records, not 2.7 billion people. Given that the leak apparently targets exclusively US citizens, it stands to reason that it's multiple records per person.
"Group of benchwarming judges rules that putting books in front of a camera/OCR and converting them from physical printed media to digital data does not meet the legal definition of 'transformative.'" EXCUSE ME?...because the IA's digital copies of books did not "provide criticism, commentary, or information about the originals" or alter the original books to add "something new," the court concluded that the IA's use of publishers' books was not transformative, hobbling the organization's fair use defense.
Wasn't Tim Taylor notorious for destroying everything he decided to add needlessly extra power to?Seasonic is releasing a new "Tim Taylor" power supply (officially named the PX-2200) capable of supplying your sick new build with...2200W.
Yes, that's what the name means. Also this power supply is not likely to be sold in the USA, because the side effect of supplying 2200W to your computer components is that it has to pull THREE THOUSAND WATTS from the wall socket, so it is only available in a 220-240V version (because the most you can push over a standard 120V outlet in the USA is ~20A, and you'd need to push ~30A to run this thing at 120V).
But hey, if you want to try and SLI a triple-RTX4090 rig*, at least they've got you covered.

*NVIDIA doesn't actually support SLI any more, sorry.
MOAR POWER, HOAH HOAH HOAHWasn't Tim Taylor notorious for destroying everything he decided to add needlessly extra power to?
The main reason to get one of these power supplies is because you intend to use one (or more!) cards requiring the newer 12VHPWR cables that have recently been burning up the YouTubes, so now you know why I called them that. Rumor is that NVIDIA's upcoming RTX 5090 series might require two such connectors as opposed to the RTX 4090 currently (heh) only requiring one.Wasn't Tim Taylor notorious for destroying everything he decided to add needlessly extra power to?
