Amid Teacher Strike Trend, the Least OR Lawmakers Can Do Is Bring Union Negotiations Out of the Dark

Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge We might be skeptical of some Nvidia’s claims, like whether a $549 RTX 5070 will truly deliver the performance of a $1599 RTX 4090. But it’s almost impossible not to be impressed by the RTX 5090 Founder’s Edition, where Nvidia fit 575 watts of graphics power, including 21,760 CUDA cores and 32GB of GDDR7 memory, into a video card just two slots wide. It almost has to be seen to be believed, and we sent my colleague Antonio around the CES show floor in Las Vegas in what was initially a fruitless search. No PC manufacturer seemed to have an interactive game demo running on a 5090, much less the two-slot card. But on Wednesday, we finally spotted the real deal at Nvidia’s offsite event — and then some. It’s heavy, and the uniquely desirable $2,000 card may wind up being rare, but it’s here, and it works. Below, find our pictures of the relatively compact 5090; its incredibly compact PCB with the Blackwell chip on top; a game demo running on the 5090; a picture of the 5090, 5080, and 5070 Founder’s Editions side by side; and some examples of just how bulky every other partner’s cards can be compared to Nvidia’s own.

Apple is working on a key iPhone update that will enable an important Apple Intelligence feature on supported devices. iOS 18.4 will bring the more advanced Siri assistant to the iPhone 15 Pros and all iPhone 16 models in the coming months. Siri will have access to more contextual information from iPhone apps to better respond to user prompts. Siri will also be able to control apps to a degree. This is the first step towards creating AI assistants that know everything about the user and can handle user data. Such functionality will benefit from strong privacy protections, as Apple will try to process most Apple Intelligence requests on the iPhone, iPad, or Mac. If that's impossible, the prompts get sent to Apple in a brand-new, state-of-the-art cloud AI processing system that protects user privacy (the Private Cloud Compute). But before any of that can happen, Apple has to deal with the fallout of a Siri-related lawsuit from a few years ago. Apple has agreed to pay $95 million in a class action suit that alleged some Siri recordings sent to human evaluation contained sensitive voice data collected while the assistant was activated accidentally. The case dates back to 2019. But with Apple agreeing to settle the suit, some people might be wondering about the privacy protections that Siri offers for advertising. After all, we've had conspiracy theories for years that smartphones listen to what you say and then surface ads based on your interests. Apple issued a statement on Wednesday evening to remind its customers of its "longstanding privacy commitment with Siri." Continue reading...

Lisa Kudrow recently uncovered a heartfelt surprise from her late Friends co-star, Matthew Perry. During an interview on The Drew Barrymore Show, Kudrow revealed that Perry had gifted her the famous “Cookie Time” jar from the set of Friends. Kudrow noted that Perry gave her the jar, which was a prop from filming, at the end of the finale episode. She had no idea there was a note inside until recently. Discovering a message from her late co-star felt special and reminded Kudrow of Perry’s thoughtful nature. Lisa Kudrow rewatched ‘Friends’ in honor of Matthew Perry FRIENDS, from left: Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, ‘The One Where Everybody Finds Out’, (Season 5, ep. 514, aired Feb. 11, 1999), 1994-2004/Everett For years, Kudrow avoided watching reruns of Friends, admitting she felt embarrassed to see herself on screen. This changed after Perry’s passing in October 2023, as she decided to make a compromise and pay tribute to him by revisiting the series. She mentioned that she found it easier to watch because she made it about Perry, drawing her attention off herself in character as Phoebe Buffay. Like most fans of Friends, Kudrow admitted that she catches herself laughing out loud while watching. She commended each of her co-stars, noting that she was blown away by Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston’s performances.

Perry will always be remembered by Kudrow and his surviving castmates for his humor and thoughtfulness. “Thank you for your open heart in a six way relationship that required compromise. And a lot of ‘talking. Thank you for showing up at work when you weren’t well and then, being completely brilliant,” her tribute read.
