1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,279
oh man can i get someone else to do this

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:10,240
today i'm tired oh dang it well i can't outsource my

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:13,920
hosting duties but Intel looks to be outsourcing some of its CPU

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:18,160
manufacturing although Intel has long made its own chips reports indicate that

5
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:23,119
they're contracting with tsmc the same fab that makes processors for AMD to

6
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:26,320
produce coffee lake cpus mostly on the lower end of the product stack that'll

7
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:29,679
make for some awkward water cooler conversations at the plant the move

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,760
follows a number of difficulties that Intel has faced in producing its current

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:38,480
gen 14 nanometer chips with demand outstripping supply by a full 50 in some

10
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:42,480
cases this has led to a noticeable increase in processor prices for team

11
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:46,399
blue even as AMD is trying to get a seven nanometer chip to market before

12
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,200
the end of the year but look Intel's just trying to fix things

13
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:53,360
instead of throwing them out okay you know 14 nanometers a perfectly good

14
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:56,559
process just needs a little spit shine little tlc

15
00:00:54,719 --> 00:01:01,120
are you suspicious that your smart tv might be spying on you well for you

16
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:06,400
vizio owners out there they might soon be fessing up of their own volition back

17
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:08,320
in 2015 it came out that vizio was

18
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:11,360
bundling hidden software with its tvs that could track your tv watching

19
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:16,240
behavior so it could sell that information onto marketers and of course

20
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:20,080
consumers were not told about this nor were they offered a way to opt out but

21
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:23,759
once the cat got out of the bag vizio found themselves in court and now has to

22
00:01:21,759 --> 00:01:28,080
send notifications to consumers through their tvs if their personal information

23
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:32,000
was compromised not only that the notifications have to tell viewers that

24
00:01:29,759 --> 00:01:35,759
they're eligible to join a class action lawsuit so your vizio tv will

25
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:39,200
essentially be telling you that you can sue its own maker because it's screwed

26
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:44,479
up are you there god it's me

27
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:47,119
you're getting served oh bam yep

28
00:01:44,479 --> 00:01:50,960
he's leaving now james he just did that bit he did that bit and now he's gone if

29
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,880
you were wanting to get your hands on a fancy new ray tracing optimized graphics

30
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,079
card without shelling out tons of money for something at the top of the product

31
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:02,399
stack then you should probably prepare to be disappointed an interview with

32
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:06,799
NVIDIA's chief financial officer heavily implied that the rtx 2070 will be the

33
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:11,760
lowest end card that will support the new ray tracing tech with a more

34
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:13,280
affordable 2060 and below missing out

35
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:17,360
meaning they'll also likely stick with the more traditional gtx branding while

36
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,640
it isn't super surprising that NVIDIA might not feel confident enough in how

37
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:24,720
much computing power the lower end cards have to give them ray tracing support

38
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:28,640
gamers are in a not great position as they'll have to pay a princely sum just

39
00:02:26,959 --> 00:02:32,640
to see if ray tracing in games ends up being worth it at all but i feel

40
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:36,400
confident buying the top end stuff because how much of my life do i want to

41
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,720
not have ray tracing zero percent and i've already failed at

42
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:45,519
that so i guess i won't buy the top end stuff so what are you buying it what's

43
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:49,440
that are you reviewing it are you reviewing it was it i don't we

44
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:53,440

the quick bits there have been rumblings once again that apple is moving away

57
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:45,760
from its proprietary lightning connector in favor of the open usbc standard and

58
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:49,920
we might get our first official glimpse at that on wednesday when apple unveils

59
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:53,760
its new iphones although those phones will probably stick with lightning a

60
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:58,480
report has suggested that the new ipad pro will feature usb-c or a port that

61
00:03:56,799 --> 00:04:04,239
looks and acts like usb-c but it's called something revolutionary like usb

62
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:10,080
snow leopard that was stupid USB-C you later Thunderbolt USB-C later

63
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:13,760
alex stepped in for james everybody love that guy

64
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,840
for some part of the appeal of cryptocurrency is its unregulated nature

65
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:21,280
but new york state has just officially approved a pair of digital currencies

66
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:25,120
being referred to as stable coins the name comes from the

67
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:28,720
fact they're both pegged to the us dollar to help avoid some of the wild

68
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:32,479
fluctuations we've seen with other cryptocurrencies like bitcoin the

69
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,080
companies behind them hope that 24 hour a day trading which you don't get with

70
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:41,040
regular money will help broaden their appeal but the only people qualified to

71
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,040
use them will be

72
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:46,240
stable geniuses if you've reserved tesla's more

73
00:04:44,479 --> 00:04:49,840
affordable model 3 you might be getting into your fancy new car as early as this

74
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,680
week the company is offering non-customized model 3s to reservation

75
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,280
holders immediately though it's been speculated that the rationale behind the

76
00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:01,440
offer is that tesla needs the extra money in the face of falling stock

77
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:04,880
prices and problems it's been having on the assembly line and the massive influx

78
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:10,639
of elon musk's smoking weed memes

79
00:05:07,759 --> 00:05:14,960
it's really been everywhere now halo might be finally coming back to the pc

80
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:17,919
sooner than initially expected although the next installment in the series halo

81
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:23,039
infinite has already been announced for Windows the pc may also be getting halo

82
00:05:20,479 --> 00:05:26,560
5 guardians this report is based on an update to its amazon listing that

83
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:31,120
implies halo 5 will soon be part of the play anywhere ecosystem that allows

84
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:35,840
gamers to buy a title for either xbox or Windows and have access to it on both

85
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:39,919
platforms and as cool as a halo 1 lan party is

86
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:44,000
i can i can say from experience yeah yeah i just as soon give guardians a

87
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:47,759
spin halo 4 was actually the last title i played on the xbox at my parents house

88
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:51,280
so i need to know what happens and keep a lookout for an interesting

89
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:55,199
power delivery system that isn't a motorized scooter battery the next time

90
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,880
you go to walmart the retail giant announced a partnership with asia a

91
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:02,800
company that provides wireless charging technology walmart is deploying the tech

92
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:06,560
in order to cut the costs associated with running a bunch of messy wires to

93
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,680
gadgets like handheld scanners and surveillance cameras although there's no

94
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:13,199
word yet on whether shoppers will be able to charge their phones wirelessly

95
00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:16,400
and maybe do a little comparison shopping while they're at it because if

96
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:21,039
there's one company that needs to make more profit for their owners it's walmart and then i was gonna say you

97
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:25,840
like that james because he's kind of like pro business

98
00:06:23,039 --> 00:06:30,960
and i'm anti-business oh no i love it oh you don't even know what i

99
00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:33,199
said i like business yes

100
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:37,840
i love it it's business time and business is good

101
00:06:35,919 --> 00:06:40,639
and speaking of comparison that's today's show

102
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:46,960
i don't know how that's john wrote this script so come on wednesday for another incomparably good

103
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:51,639
dose of tech news that's a little too confident for my taste john

104
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:56,240
incomprehensible technique incomparably incomprehensibly good dose of tech news

105
00:06:54,240 --> 00:07:01,400
the news will just be okay on wednesday okay guys

106
00:06:57,280 --> 00:07:01,400
especially because Linus is hosting
