1
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:13,120
who watches the olympics you didn't even know what that was a reference to let's talk about tech news the real athletes

2
00:00:11,519 --> 00:00:19,680
are the cs go pros and they're about to get a nice gift from lg and au optronics

3
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,920
in the form of 480 hertz gaming monitors

4
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:27,199
we've had 360hz panels for some time now but i'm so bored of those my eyes need

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,880
more frames you know that's what

6
00:00:27,199 --> 00:00:32,559
give me some more now don't expect super high resolutions with these first 480

7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:36,000
hertz models as the high refresh rates come at the cost of pixel density so for

8
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:39,840
the initial production we're looking at gaming monitors with 1080p native

9
00:00:38,239 --> 00:00:43,280
resolution what size that has nothing to do with

10
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:46,719
pixel density riley there's

11
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:49,920
however it looks like they will have HDR 400 support if you want a more

12
00:00:48,239 --> 00:00:53,760
entry-level high dynamic range experience and we're probably not going

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:58,239
to see these on the market until 2023 so your junky old 240 hertz model will have

14
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,680
to tide you over until then which is so cringe

15
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:05,119
sometimes technology gets better Intel has said that the chip shortage

16
00:01:02,879 --> 00:01:09,360
unfortunately isn't going away anytime soon in their second quarter earnings

17
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:13,040
report Intel cfo predicted chips will be in short supply yet again during the

18
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:16,880
third quarter of this year at least for the individual pc market though things

19
00:01:15,119 --> 00:01:21,119
should get better for their cloud and enterprise customers which i know is

20
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:25,600
just thrilling news for those of you at home i'm going into stasis

21
00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:29,280
wake me up when there's chips oh hi Linus

22
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:31,840
Linus is really thrilled about today's tech news

23
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:40,479
anyhow it looks like the issue is that certain substrates used in chip production are

24
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,799
themselves facing a supply shortage and enterprise-grade xeon chips which are

25
00:01:43,119 --> 00:01:48,960
physically larger are going to be eating up a good amount of what is available

26
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:53,040
leaving little left over for consumer grade cpus

27
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:57,439
we forgot to stock up on the substrates what you thought the night was darkest

28
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:02,399
before the dawn you sweet summer child the night just keeps getting darker

29
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,680
there's plenty of excitement around the launch of valve's steam deck but

30
00:02:04,159 --> 00:02:10,080
consumers have been wondering how demanding aaa titles will run on a

31
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,280
handheld like i don't know if that thing can do 4k

32
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:17,360
which is fine because the steam deck screen is 720p and one of valve's coders

33
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,680
said on twitter that their minimum baseline was 30 frames per second the

34
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:25,840
game's valve has tested have reportedly at least met that standard if not

35
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:29,200
exceeded it while 30 frames per second might not sound like much to those of

36
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:33,200
you with high-end gpus in your desktop or laptop it's still perfectly playable

37
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:37,440
assuming you're a lover of cinema as an art form as i am subscribe to carpool

38
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:40,000
critics it's a movie podcast it is it'll be called something else soon did you

a leak concerning NVIDIA's next gen 40 series gpus makes it look like team

48
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:31,040
green is switching their manufacturer from samsung to tsmc with the new gpus

49
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:34,720
being made on the 5 nanometer process wow performance and power efficiency

50
00:03:32,959 --> 00:03:39,440
should be very high when those products launch do you think there will be enough

51
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:41,280
to go around james

52
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:45,760
crypto has taken a beating lately but there's a sudden surge in prices thanks

53
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:50,400
to amazon a job posting indicates that the tech giant wants someone to develop

54
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:55,040
digital currency and blockchain strategy on the payments acceptance and

55
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:59,439
experience team and amazon actually did confirm they want to accept crypto in

56
00:03:56,799 --> 00:04:03,920
the future so maybe don't panic sell all your dogecoin just yet this is not

57
00:04:02,239 --> 00:04:09,120
investment advice but sell your doge point china thinks it has at least a partial

58
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:14,159
solution to the issue of nuclear reactor safety as the nation has reportedly

59
00:04:10,799 --> 00:04:17,680
developed a reactor that uses thorium

60
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:19,680
instead of the more traditional uranium

61
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:23,840
not only does thorium's nuclear waste have a much shorter half-life the

62
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:28,400
reactor design includes molten salt that can seal off any leaks not to mention

63
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:33,759
it's much harder to use thorium for uh non-peaceful applications it's a very

64
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:37,360
very peaceful radioactive isotope it's uh you could say it's a pacifist if you

65
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:42,080
own an apple watch be on the lookout for the iOS 14.7.1 update which should be

66
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:46,800
getting pushed out to your iphones and ipads right now it fixes a bug in

67
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:50,800
version 14.7 that completely broke the unlock with iphone feature meaning you'd

68
00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:55,360
have to unlock the watch itself in order to use it it also patches a security

69
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:59,440
hole which seems more important to me so make sure you apply the update to avoid

70
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:03,680
this incredibly major inconvenience is that sarcasm

71
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:08,320
blindness agrees and speaking of iphones it looks like the iphone 14 is actually

72
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:12,639
going to be made of titanium dennis is shocked by this no that's eon

73
00:05:11,039 --> 00:05:16,400
he's bored the information comes from an investor note that says the change will

74
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:19,919
be coming next year so we won't see it in the iphone 13. titanium has the

75
00:05:18,479 --> 00:05:23,840
advantage of being more durable and scratch resistant than stainless steel

76
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:28,080
which has been used in previous iphones apparently the iphone 14 will represent

77
00:05:25,919 --> 00:05:31,440
a major redesign in other ways as well but i'll be impressed when we see a

78
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:35,039
phone that somehow features a way to get out of those outrageous door dash

79
00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:38,560
service fees i love what i have to read things that

80
00:05:36,639 --> 00:05:42,720
are very specific to john and have nothing to do with me i have an Android

81
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,960
Linus stop i'm doing fine and it's time to end this outrageous episode come back

82
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:51,360
on wednesday for more at tech news now if you'll excuse me i'm late for the

83
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:54,440
olympics skateboarding match the oops
