# NO NEW GPUs… Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqD_8FGk89o Recap page: https://rapidrecap.app/video/SqD_8FGk89o Generated: 2026-02-07T06:33:25.965+00:00 --- ## Quick Overview Nvidia is reportedly delaying the release of new RTX gaming GPUs until 2026 due to ongoing memory chip shortages, forcing the company to focus on shipping existing models, while Apple's Lockdown Mode successfully prevented the FBI from accessing a journalist's iPhone, and the EU is investigating TikTok for its 'addictive design' under the Digital Services Act, potentially leading to a fine of up to 6% of its global turnover. **Key Points:** - Nvidia's next-generation RTX 70-series gaming GPUs (potentially the RTX 7000 series) may be delayed until 2026 because of supply constraints, specifically with VRM memory chips. - Due to the supply constraints, Nvidia is prioritizing the shipment of existing GPU models and reportedly slashing production of some current GPUs by around 20% to stretch available memory. - Apple's Lockdown Mode prevented the FBI from accessing a journalist's iPhone 13, as the feature blocked data access via device management tools and required a PIN instead of biometric unlock (Face ID). - The European Commission preliminarily found that TikTok's design, featuring infinite scroll and autoplay, breaches the EU's Digital Services Act, potentially resulting in a fine of up to 6% of global turnover. - The Internet Archive released a WordPress plugin for its Wayback Machine that automatically checks for dead links and redirects them to archived versions, aiming to fix the internet's 'link rot' problem. - The lawsuit against social media giants like Meta, TikTok, Snap, and YouTube claiming personal injury due to addictive products is moving forward, testing a new legal strategy. - War Thunder is advertised as the most comprehensive vehicle combat game, featuring over 2,500 vehicles including tanks, planes, and helicopters. ![Screenshot at 00:25: The host discusses the report claiming Nvidia is delaying the release of new RTX 60-series gaming GPUs until 2026 and is instead 'slashing production' of existing models due to VRam supply constraints.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-00-25.jpg) **Context:** The video covers several disparate technology news items presented by Riley Murdock. The initial segment discusses a report that Nvidia is slowing down the release schedule for its next-generation GPUs due to component shortages, while another segment highlights a successful test of Apple's extreme security feature, Lockdown Mode, against law enforcement access. Finally, regulatory actions against TikTok and new web tools from the Internet Archive are covered, illustrating ongoing tensions between technology companies, users, and regulators. ## Detailed Analysis The video reports on several major tech news stories. First, Nvidia may delay its new RTX gaming GPUs, expected to be the RTX 6000 series, until 2026 because of tight supply constraints on VRam memory chips, according to insiders speaking to Tom's Hardware; Nvidia is shifting focus to shipping existing models and cutting production of some current GPUs by about 20% to conserve memory. Second, Apple's Lockdown Mode proved effective when the FBI failed to access a journalist's iPhone 13, as the feature blocked data extraction via management tools and forced the FBI to rely on the phone's PIN instead of biometric unlock (Face ID). Third, the European Commission preliminarily found TikTok in breach of the Digital Services Act due to its 'addictive design' features like infinite scroll and autoplay, which could lead to a fine of up to 6% of its global turnover; TikTok rejected the findings. Fourth, the Internet Archive launched a WordPress plugin for its Wayback Machine that automatically scans websites and redirects broken links to archived versions, which is significant as 38% of links from the past decade are already broken. Fifth, a new wave of lawsuits against Meta, TikTok, Snap, and YouTube claims their addictive products caused personal injury, following the tobacco industry's legal strategy. Finally, the segment ends with a plug for the game War Thunder, highlighting its realism and vast vehicle roster, and a reminder about Google's Gemini checkout feature raising privacy concerns regarding user data sharing with retailers, as pressed by Senator Elizabeth Warren. ### Nvidia GPU Delay - New RTX gaming GPUs (potentially RTX 60 series) delayed until 2026 due to VRam memory chip shortages - Nvidia prioritizes shipping existing models and slashes production of some current GPUs by ~20% ### Apple Lockdown Mode Success - Lockdown Mode prevented FBI access to a journalist's iPhone 13 by blocking management tools and requiring a PIN instead of Face ID ### EU vs. TikTok - European Commission preliminarily found TikTok in breach of the Digital Services Act for 'addictive design' (infinite scroll, autoplay) - TikTok faces potential fine up to 6% of global turnover ### Internet Archive Tool - Internet Archive released a WordPress plugin for the Wayback Machine to automatically fix 'link rot' by redirecting dead URLs to archived snapshots - 38% of links from the past decade are already broken ### Social Media Lawsuits - Lawsuits against Meta, TikTok, Snap, and YouTube proceed using a 'tobacco approach,' claiming addictive products caused personal injury ### Google Gemini Privacy Concerns - Senator Elizabeth Warren pressed Google regarding privacy implications of Gemini's built-in checkout feature and potential merging of user data with retailer data ### War Thunder Sponsor Read - Promoted War Thunder as a comprehensive vehicle combat game with over 2,500 realistic vehicles across tanks, planes, and helicopters, available for free on PC, consoles, and mobile. ![Screenshot at 00:12: The Whale LAN website is displayed, announcing the event dates as February 21-22, 2026.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-00-12.jpg) ![Screenshot at 00:30: An article headline states, "Nvidia to Delay New Gaming Chip Due to Memory Chip Shortage," referencing a potential 2026 launch delay.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-00-30.jpg) ![Screenshot at 02:04: A TechCrunch article headline reads, "FBI Couldn't Get into WaPo Reporter's iPhone Because It Had Lockdown Mode Enabled," illustrating Apple's security feature success.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-02-04.jpg) ![Screenshot at 03:34: A European Commission press release announces it preliminarily found TikTok in breach of the Digital Services Act for its addictive design.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-03-34.jpg) ![Screenshot at 06:59: A TechCrunch article details the Internet Archive releasing a WordPress plugin to fix the internet's broken links problem by redirecting to archived versions.](https://ss.rapidrecap.app/screens/SqD_8FGk89o/00-06-59.jpg)
