1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,560
have you ever gotten a christmas or a birthday gift that you wish you could

2
00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:10,000
get rid of well AMD is attempting to get a handful

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:14,559
of folks to look at the shiny new Intel CPU that they just won

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:18,880
in the same way that they'd look at an ugly reindeer sweater Intel recently

5
00:00:17,039 --> 00:00:25,680
gave away over 8 000 core i7 8086 processors to celebrate

6
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:27,680
their 50th anniversary but AMD is

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:33,280
crashing the party by announcing that the first 40 contest winners who get in

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:41,920
touch with them will be able to trade in their core i7s for a ryzen threadripper

9
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:44,399
1950x with 16 cores that is 10 more than

10
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:49,039
the 8086 though it should be noted that the i7 single threaded performance still

11
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:54,160
puts it ahead in many benchmarks nonetheless it is a tantalizing

12
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:58,000
proposition for content creators or just anyone who wants more cores than their

13
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:04,640
neighbors so if you're interested the offer opens on june 25th and

14
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:06,560
unsurprisingly is for u.s residents only

15
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:11,760
but something that isn't just for americans is the two new services that

16
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:17,280
youtube opened up today the video hosting giant is rolling out youtube

17
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:20,240
music and youtube premium not just in

18
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:25,759
the united states but also canada mexico australia new zealand south korea

19
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:29,680
and 11 european countries youtube music is a full-fledged audio streaming

20
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:35,520
service designed to compete with spotify and apple music and they are touting its

21
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:40,240
search feature that is supposedly more intelligent than what their competitors

22
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:44,400
are providing as a selling point even claiming that queries like

23
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:48,079
that hipster song with the whistling will work thanks to machine learning or

24
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:53,119
something music comes in a free ad supported

25
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:58,079
version and a paid version for 9.99 a month while premium the other new

26
00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:03,520
offering includes youtube music as well as ad-free video viewing and a number of

27
00:02:00,479 --> 00:02:05,040
youtube original shows for 11.99 a month

28
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,800
though they haven't talked that much about the original shows in the uh in

29
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:12,560
the advertising materials probably because most of them aren't very good a

30
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:20,560
report from kid guru this morning mentioned that many users of ASUS and

31
00:02:15,599 --> 00:02:23,200
acer's new fancy 4k 144hz displays

32
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:28,560
look rather blurry once they turn them up north of 120 hertz as it turns out

33
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:32,879
this is due to a technique called chroma subsampling a form of image compression

34
00:02:30,959 --> 00:02:39,920
that is necessary because the displayport 1.4 spec simply doesn't have

35
00:02:36,239 --> 00:02:42,319
the bandwidth to support a 4k 144 hertz

36
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:46,239
signal without compression although a non-tech did report last month that

37
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:52,160
chroma sub sampling was being utilized by both monitors many gamers are crying

38
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:58,000
foul because neither ASUS nor acer were particularly transparent about the issue

39
00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:00,239
instead pushing the 4k 144 angle in

40
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:04,959
their marketing copy i guess next time maybe they should screen it a little

41
00:03:02,239 --> 00:03:09,680
better and now it's time for bitquits brought to you by memory express whether

42
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:13,280
you're a gamer business owner or literally anyone else memory express is

43
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:17,519
your go-to destination in canada for electronic products and services if it

44
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:21,040
uses electricity there is a good chance that memory express carries it plus with

45
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:25,280
their uber price beat guaranteed they'll beat any authorized canadian retailers

46
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:29,120
price by 10 of the difference both in store and online so check out the link

47
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:33,200
below for all the details just don't try to use uber price beat to get a ride to

48
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:37,360
the airport or whatever that's that's not what they do google translate can be

49
00:03:35,519 --> 00:03:42,080
frustrating but one inaccurate translation has one man counting his

50
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:46,319
blessings after police in kansas pulled over a man who only spoke spanish the

51
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:51,360
officer used google translate to ask permission to search his car but it came

52
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,400
out in spanish as can i search for the car

53
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:59,840
after the man said yes a large amount of cocaine and meth was found in the

54
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:02,000
vehicle but a judge threw out the drug

55
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:08,000
evidence earlier this month ruling that the botched translation caused the

56
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:09,599
driver's consent to be invalid huh makes

57
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,319
me wonder like what if he'd been caught a few years from now after google's ai

58
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:18,320
improves its uh espanola speaking of being caught pokemon go has finally

59
00:04:16,479 --> 00:04:22,880
given players the ability to trade pokemon with other trainers it comes

60
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:26,880
with a few caveats though you can't trade unless you're at level 10 and you

61
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:30,639
can only trade with people you add as friends and only when they're within 100

62
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:35,680
meters of you someone should tell the casuals over at the antec that this

63
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:41,680
isn't how it worked in the tv show the iphone 3gs is for some reason back on

64
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:49,280
store shelves in south korea the mobile phone carrier sk telling sk to link t

65
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:52,080
link somehow found a huge cache of brand

66
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:56,400
new 3gs's that it somehow didn't get around to selling back in the day they

67
00:04:53,759 --> 00:05:00,000
will cost you about 44 000 won each which is not nearly as much as it sounds

68
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:03,919
like that's only about 40 american dollars for this unused piece of

69
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:07,280
electronics history moving back stateside foxconn has

70
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:11,600
announced that it will base its north american headquarters in milwaukee not

71
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,639
far from a factory that the company acquired where it plans to employ 13 000

72
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:20,560
people to make displays just remember this so you won't have a heart attack

73
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:27,440
next time you see made in the usa on the back of like a monitor or something and

74
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:29,600
speaking of foxes the fox networks

75
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:34,000
are trying to jazz up commercial breaks in an age where everyone is getting used

76
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:39,840
to streaming content without two minutes of ads by letting brands sponsor

77
00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:44,639
inspirational commercials focused on people who have overcome some illness or

78
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:48,639
physical limitation in what they call brand storytelling

79
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:53,440
not quite sure how well this will go over but it might be an improvement over watching

80
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:56,320
a sales pitch for an embarrassing prescription

81
00:05:54,560 --> 00:06:01,520
hearing the story of someone whose life was changed by an embarrassing prescription what is the difference here

82
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:05,120
all right since i've got to go take care of some embarrassing medications of my

83
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:08,400
