Hey, good morning! You look fabulous.
Just as summer begins to fade and the back to school push ramps up, Intel is finally ready to deliver its 10nm, 10th-gen Ice Lake mobile chips. In other news, Burger King's not-meat Whopper is about to go nationwide, and Twitch's #1 streamer changed teams.
Intel unveils its first 10th-gen 'Ice Lake' laptop CPUs
While Intel's last few processor upgrades felt like incremental steps, the 10th-gen "Ice Lake" hardware seems like a huge leap forward — at least based on their specs. You can expect greater efficiency, faster AI computation, Thunderbolt 3 support for up to four ports and next-generation Wi-Fi 6 connectivity.
The only bad news? More options for embedded graphics means model numbers are getting longer and more mysterious than ever. Check out some early benchmarking action on Upscaled to see just how much faster things can get with the new CPUs.
Top 'Fortnite' streamer Ninja is ditching Twitch for Mixer
Tyler 'Ninja' Blevins said in an announcement video that the move is partly about helping him "get back in touch with my roots." There's no word on a financial arrangement between the two, but separating the streamer from his 14.7 million Twitch followers likely means getting in touch with a lot of guaranteed money. Since the announcement, Ninja has grown his Mixer channel to over 230,000 subscribers.

Apple suspends the Siri program where people listened to your questions
Last week, The Guardian dug into a program where third-party contractors listened in to anonymized recordings of Apple users asking Siri questions to judge the assistant's responses, and now Apple has shut it down. While it conducts a "thorough" review, it's suspending the program globally -- and this comes shortly after Google announced it would temporarily shut down a similar effort, but only for users in the EU.
