Why you should buy the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT

Your gaming PC should have an excellent CPU to steer the ship, but a powerful GPU is just as important. In the case of the 6700 XT, you can expect max clock speeds of 2,581MHz and an average of 2,321MHz. Whether you’re indulging in a bit of FPS gameplay with extremely detailed environments and character animations, or you’re engulfed in all-out war as hundreds of online players swarm your position, the 6700 XT is strong enough to adapt to any demanding in-game scenario.

As far as resolution and frame rate goes, you can expect up to 8K/60Hz, even though a majority of gamers will enjoy the GPU’s 4K/120Hz capabilities. Once you factor in AMD’s DirectX 12 Ultimate, you’ll be bewildered at just how good the 6700 XT is at delivering bright and colorful visuals. When paired with an appropriate monitor, the sky truly becomes the limit. You’ll also be able to enjoy HDMI 2.1 support, which means features like VRR and AMD FreeSync will bring incredible motion clarity and minimal lag to the table.

There are plenty of Prime Day GPU deals to take advantage of, but when it comes to a graphics card brand that we’re always glad to stand behind, we can think of no better than AMD. And as a reminder, you’ll save $120 when you purchase the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT through Amazon. And do be sure to check out some of the other Prime Day deals we’ve been logging!

AI companies may be gobbling up old books, and I really hope they aren’t destroying them
Booksellers are seeing mysterious bulk orders for old books, and some suspect AI companies
Book, Publication, Text

Secondhand booksellers have noticed a curious pattern over the past few months. Large orders are coming in for old books that often share no obvious subject, author, or genre, leaving sellers wondering who wants them and why.

According to The Guardian, booksellers in the U.K. and Ireland have received bulk orders covering everything from agricultural texts to racing biographies. Some buyers reportedly use opaque aliases, send orders to the same freight warehouses, and pay full price without negotiating bulk discounts. Similar activity has also surfaced in the U.S., Australia, and Europe.

Claude is getting ambitious with watermarking, and I can smell the problems from a mile away
Claude’s text watermark could flag AI involvement even when it only helped with translation or editing
Claude website open on laptop

Anthropic wants to make AI-generated text easier to identify, and on paper, I have very little reason to complain. The company is experimenting with an invisible watermark that can be baked directly into text generated by Claude.

It sounds like a sensible idea. AI-generated text is everywhere, and knowing where something came from could certainly help. Moreover, Anthropic isn't simply hiding a marker somewhere inside a document. Its approach changes how Claude selects words to create a statistical pattern that can later be detected.

I switched from Windows to Mac after 25 years, and it’s the trackpad that converted me.
Well, that rhymes.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

I’ve been using Windows laptops for almost 25 years. In that time, I never once seriously thought of buying a MacBook. In fact, I can honestly say I had never used one at all until I bought my MacBook Air M5 six months ago. Never borrowed one for a weekend, spent an afternoon at an Apple Store, or even played with one at a friend's house. Macs, to me, were just expensive computers for those who edited videos, made logos, or liked drinking expensive coffee.

My change came completely by accident.
