The vote is now closed. Queen won by a lot. Still, pretty impressive considering Queen has a whole chapter to herself and Pluey was an independently funded candidate with no corporate backing whatsoever

Former PlayStation boss Shawn Layden says the PS6 doesn’t need to be more powerful. He believes Sony should focus on making consoles cheaper instead of adding more performance. He says the real innovation would be bringing back a $300 console rather than making a PS6 that could cost $1,200. “We have enough power in the machine,” “The innovation needs to come not from making PS6 for $1,200 - it’s to make another PS5 for $300.”

Microsoft has filed a patent for an AI system that could rewrite what people say during livestreams in real time. It could change words depending on who's watching, taking into account their age, location, and language. The idea is to clean up broadcasts by removing filler words, censoring swearing, or even replacing certain words. The AI could also adjust the speaker's lip movements so viewers wouldn't notice anything had been changed.

BREAKING: Europe is under a massive cyber attack, with supermarket fridges and freezers in Belgium, Sweden, Luxembourg, Ireland, the Netherlands, Finland and Estonia all hacked today by raising temperatures to up to 50°C, destroying huge quantities of food, per Reuters. "Everything is destroyed," a sales manager in Sweden said, adding that "there has been a cyberattack and all our freezers reached 50 degrees." More than 40 supermarkets in Belgium and Luxembourg were affected. "I only have two words for them: wake up, please, because there's something going on," a store manager in Belgium said. This follows a similar cyberattack last month that hit hundreds of supermarkets in France, raising freezers as high as 80°C and causing major food losses. It also comes after freezers at 6 US military bases mysteriously malfunctioned, spoiling large quantities of food, which the Pentagon is investigating as a suspected cyberattack.

France has approved a proposal for a new €0.055 tax per GB of internet traffic, and game downloads could be affected. If GTA 6 ends up being around 218 GB, downloading it could cost €12 in tax under the proposal. The tax could also affect other big game downloads and streaming services like Netflix and YouTube. However, it’s not law yet. The proposal still needs to pass through the remaining legislative process in France.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes people owning RAM is wasteful, and that it belongs in data centers instead. "From a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everyone have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer."
