Tumblr will start blocking adult content on December 17th
Tumblr has announced that from December 17th, it will no longer allow adult content. The site, which is owned by Engadget’s parent company, says that content includes “photos, videos or GIFs that show real-life human genitals or female-presenting nipples and any content — including photos, videos, GIFs and illustrations — that depicts sex acts.” The move comes just after Tumblr’s app was removed from the App Store, reportedly because images of child sexual abuse had made their way on to the site.
NVIDIA officially unveils its flagship Titan RTX GPU
As expected, the Titan RTX has 72 Turing RT and 4,608 CUDA cores, up from 68 and 4,352, respectively, over the RTX 2080 Ti. However, this isn’t so much a consumer card (unlike last year’s Titan XP), but more in the family of the Titan V compute GPU.
With 24GB of GDDR6 VRAM and a $2,500 price tag, the Titan RTX is aimed at AI researchers, workstation users and gamers with deep pockets. Should that not do the job, you can get the $80 Titan RTX NVLink Bridge, letting you join two Titan RTX cards together with double the VRAM and 100 GB/s of total bandwidth.
