NVIDIA claims the January Windows update KB5074109 is the likely cause of significant gaming performance issues on systems with NVIDIA graphics hardware. Users report frame rate reductions of up to 20 frames per second and various graphical anomalies. NVIDIA confirmed that the problems do not stem from its graphics drivers and that uninstalling the update is a workaround. The company continues to investigate the matter actively.

Affected users may uninstall KB5074109 through the Windows Update page in Settings and temporarily pause further updates until Microsoft releases a permanent fix.

The January updates caused troubles for both Microsoft and its users. The Redmond firm continues addressing a bunch of issues, including the shutdown bug, Remote Desktop interruption, and unbootable devices. At the same time, Microsoft is working on reducing the AI push and rebuilding user trust in Windows 🤣

Leaked images of future Pixel A Series models after seeing Pixel 10a bezels

You first look at Trump Phone T1

Verge executives spoke to Don Hendrickson and Eric Thomas, two of the three executives that run Trump Mobile, giving us our first ever look at the Trump Mobile T1.

It is not a final production model, but apparently it’s a close prototype. The final model will not have the 'T1' logo but the American flag at the bottom will remain, as will the signature gold finish.

Talking about the specs, it is expected to be powered by Snapdragon 7 Gen series and will include 50MP selfie & triple rear camera including Telephoto lens, 512GB storage, 5000mAh battery & 1TB MicroSD card support.

Trump Mobile executive -- Thomas claims that it will be comparable to “any phone that’s over $1,000.” People who paid a $100 deposit already will still pay $499 total, but they’re now calling that an “introductory price.” Later buyers will pay more, though “less than $1,000”

According to Verge, the T1 Phone won’t be made in the USA. Instead, the handsets go through “final assembly” in Miami, though Thomas is careful not to say too much about what that means. The two executives promise that a Trump Mobile “relaunch” is coming, and that within “the next couple of weeks” the website will be updated with images of the final phone, along with its spec sheet

Lyrics in YouTube Music may require a Premium subscription

Google is experimenting with locking YouTube Music lyrics behind paywall aka YouTube Premium Subscription.

Basically, YouTube music will only let you see the lyrics of the song "partially".
Users get only 5 free lyrics before they have to subscribe. When that happens, you’ll only see the first few lines, with everything else blurred and unscrollable.

Google told Ars Technica that no final decisions have been made about this feature, and the number of free lyric views will vary across the test. However, this "testing" has expanded considerably in recent days and lot of users are seeing the lyrics being paywalled now.

We are running an experiment with a small percentage of ad-supported users that may impact their ability to access the lyrics feature repeatedly. We often run experiments on YouTube Music to better inform our decisions around feature improvements. The majority of our global users will not see any changes to the lyrics feature.
