00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:04.560
have you ever gotten a christmas or a birthday gift that you wish you could

00:00:03.280 --> 00:00:10.000
get rid of well AMD is attempting to get a handful

00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:14.559
of folks to look at the shiny new Intel CPU that they just won

00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:18.880
in the same way that they'd look at an ugly reindeer sweater Intel recently

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:25.680
gave away over 8 000 core i7 8086 processors to celebrate

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:27.680
their 50th anniversary but AMD is

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:33.280
crashing the party by announcing that the first 40 contest winners who get in

00:00:30.560 --> 00:00:41.920
touch with them will be able to trade in their core i7s for a ryzen threadripper

00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:44.399
1950x with 16 cores that is 10 more than

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:49.039
the 8086 though it should be noted that the i7 single threaded performance still

00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:54.160
puts it ahead in many benchmarks nonetheless it is a tantalizing

00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:58.000
proposition for content creators or just anyone who wants more cores than their

00:00:56.239 --> 00:01:04.640
neighbors so if you're interested the offer opens on june 25th and

00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:06.560
unsurprisingly is for u.s residents only

00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:11.760
but something that isn't just for americans is the two new services that

00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:17.280
youtube opened up today the video hosting giant is rolling out youtube

00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:20.240
music and youtube premium not just in

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:25.759
the united states but also canada mexico australia new zealand south korea

00:01:22.960 --> 00:01:29.680
and 11 european countries youtube music is a full-fledged audio streaming

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:35.520
service designed to compete with spotify and apple music and they are touting its

00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:40.240
search feature that is supposedly more intelligent than what their competitors

00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:44.400
are providing as a selling point even claiming that queries like

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:48.079
that hipster song with the whistling will work thanks to machine learning or

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:53.119
something music comes in a free ad supported

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:58.079
version and a paid version for 9.99 a month while premium the other new

00:01:55.600 --> 00:02:03.520
offering includes youtube music as well as ad-free video viewing and a number of

00:02:00.479 --> 00:02:05.040
youtube original shows for 11.99 a month

00:02:03.520 --> 00:02:08.800
though they haven't talked that much about the original shows in the uh in

00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:12.560
the advertising materials probably because most of them aren't very good a

00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:20.560
report from kid guru this morning mentioned that many users of ASUS and

00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:23.200
acer's new fancy 4k 144hz displays

00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:28.560
look rather blurry once they turn them up north of 120 hertz as it turns out

00:02:26.239 --> 00:02:32.879
this is due to a technique called chroma subsampling a form of image compression

00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:39.920
that is necessary because the displayport 1.4 spec simply doesn't have

00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:42.319
the bandwidth to support a 4k 144 hertz

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:46.239
signal without compression although a non-tech did report last month that

00:02:44.160 --> 00:02:52.160
chroma sub sampling was being utilized by both monitors many gamers are crying

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:58.000
foul because neither ASUS nor acer were particularly transparent about the issue

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.239
instead pushing the 4k 144 angle in

00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:04.959
their marketing copy i guess next time maybe they should screen it a little

00:03:02.239 --> 00:03:09.680
better and now it's time for bitquits brought to you by memory express whether

00:03:07.440 --> 00:03:13.280
you're a gamer business owner or literally anyone else memory express is

00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:17.519
your go-to destination in canada for electronic products and services if it

00:03:15.440 --> 00:03:21.040
uses electricity there is a good chance that memory express carries it plus with

00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:25.280
their uber price beat guaranteed they'll beat any authorized canadian retailers

00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:29.120
price by 10 of the difference both in store and online so check out the link

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

00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:37.360
the airport or whatever that's that's not what they do google translate can be

00:03:35.519 --> 00:03:42.080
frustrating but one inaccurate translation has one man counting his

00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:46.319
blessings after police in kansas pulled over a man who only spoke spanish the

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:51.360
officer used google translate to ask permission to search his car but it came

00:03:48.640 --> 00:03:54.400
out in spanish as can i search for the car

00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:59.840
after the man said yes a large amount of cocaine and meth was found in the

00:03:56.560 --> 00:04:02.000
vehicle but a judge threw out the drug

00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:08.000
evidence earlier this month ruling that the botched translation caused the

00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:09.599
driver's consent to be invalid huh makes

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

00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:18.320
improves its uh espanola speaking of being caught pokemon go has finally

00:04:16.479 --> 00:04:22.880
given players the ability to trade pokemon with other trainers it comes

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

00:04:24.960 --> 00:04:30.639
can only trade with people you add as friends and only when they're within 100

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:35.680
meters of you someone should tell the casuals over at the antec that this

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

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:49.280
store shelves in south korea the mobile phone carrier sk telling sk to link t

00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:52.080
link somehow found a huge cache of brand

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

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

00:04:58.080 --> 00:05:03.919
like that's only about 40 american dollars for this unused piece of

00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:07.280
electronics history moving back stateside foxconn has

00:05:05.840 --> 00:05:11.600
announced that it will base its north american headquarters in milwaukee not

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:16.639
far from a factory that the company acquired where it plans to employ 13 000

00:05:14.479 --> 00:05:20.560
people to make displays just remember this so you won't have a heart attack

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

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:29.600
speaking of foxes the fox networks

00:05:27.440 --> 00:05:34.000
are trying to jazz up commercial breaks in an age where everyone is getting used

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:39.840
to streaming content without two minutes of ads by letting brands sponsor

00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:44.639
inspirational commercials focused on people who have overcome some illness or

00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:48.639
physical limitation in what they call brand storytelling

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

00:05:51.280 --> 00:05:56.320
a sales pitch for an embarrassing prescription

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

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:05.120
all right since i've got to go take care of some embarrassing medications of my

00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:08.400
