00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:05.279
oh man can i get someone else to do this

00:00:03.360 --> 00:00:10.240
today i'm tired oh dang it well i can't outsource my

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:13.920
hosting duties but Intel looks to be outsourcing some of its CPU

00:00:11.840 --> 00:00:18.160
manufacturing although Intel has long made its own chips reports indicate that

00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:23.119
they're contracting with tsmc the same fab that makes processors for AMD to

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:26.320
produce coffee lake cpus mostly on the lower end of the product stack that'll

00:00:24.720 --> 00:00:29.679
make for some awkward water cooler conversations at the plant the move

00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:33.760
follows a number of difficulties that Intel has faced in producing its current

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:38.480
gen 14 nanometer chips with demand outstripping supply by a full 50 in some

00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:42.480
cases this has led to a noticeable increase in processor prices for team

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:46.399
blue even as AMD is trying to get a seven nanometer chip to market before

00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:49.200
the end of the year but look Intel's just trying to fix things

00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:53.360
instead of throwing them out okay you know 14 nanometers a perfectly good

00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:56.559
process just needs a little spit shine little tlc

00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:01.120
are you suspicious that your smart tv might be spying on you well for you

00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:06.400
vizio owners out there they might soon be fessing up of their own volition back

00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:08.320
in 2015 it came out that vizio was

00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:11.360
bundling hidden software with its tvs that could track your tv watching

00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:16.240
behavior so it could sell that information onto marketers and of course

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:20.080
consumers were not told about this nor were they offered a way to opt out but

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

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:28.080
send notifications to consumers through their tvs if their personal information

00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:32.000
was compromised not only that the notifications have to tell viewers that

00:01:29.759 --> 00:01:35.759
they're eligible to join a class action lawsuit so your vizio tv will

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:39.200
essentially be telling you that you can sue its own maker because it's screwed

00:01:37.360 --> 00:01:44.479
up are you there god it's me

00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:47.119
you're getting served oh bam yep

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

00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:54.880
you were wanting to get your hands on a fancy new ray tracing optimized graphics

00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:58.079
card without shelling out tons of money for something at the top of the product

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:02.399
stack then you should probably prepare to be disappointed an interview with

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:06.799
NVIDIA's chief financial officer heavily implied that the rtx 2070 will be the

00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:11.760
lowest end card that will support the new ray tracing tech with a more

00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.280
affordable 2060 and below missing out

00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:17.360
meaning they'll also likely stick with the more traditional gtx branding while

00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:20.640
it isn't super surprising that NVIDIA might not feel confident enough in how

00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:24.720
much computing power the lower end cards have to give them ray tracing support

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

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

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:36.400
confident buying the top end stuff because how much of my life do i want to

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:40.720
not have ray tracing zero percent and i've already failed at

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

00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:49.440
that are you reviewing it are you reviewing it was it i don't we

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:53.440

00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:41.760
the quick bits there have been rumblings once again that apple is moving away

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:45.760
from its proprietary lightning connector in favor of the open usbc standard and

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:49.920
we might get our first official glimpse at that on wednesday when apple unveils

00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:53.760
its new iphones although those phones will probably stick with lightning a

00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:58.480
report has suggested that the new ipad pro will feature usb-c or a port that

00:03:56.799 --> 00:04:04.239
looks and acts like usb-c but it's called something revolutionary like usb

00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:10.080
snow leopard that was stupid USB-C you later Thunderbolt USB-C later

00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:13.760
alex stepped in for james everybody love that guy

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:17.840
for some part of the appeal of cryptocurrency is its unregulated nature

00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:21.280
but new york state has just officially approved a pair of digital currencies

00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:25.120
being referred to as stable coins the name comes from the

00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:28.720
fact they're both pegged to the us dollar to help avoid some of the wild

00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:32.479
fluctuations we've seen with other cryptocurrencies like bitcoin the

00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:36.080
companies behind them hope that 24 hour a day trading which you don't get with

00:04:34.400 --> 00:04:41.040
regular money will help broaden their appeal but the only people qualified to

00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:41.040
use them will be

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:46.240
stable geniuses if you've reserved tesla's more

00:04:44.479 --> 00:04:49.840
affordable model 3 you might be getting into your fancy new car as early as this

00:04:48.400 --> 00:04:53.680
week the company is offering non-customized model 3s to reservation

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:57.280
holders immediately though it's been speculated that the rationale behind the

00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:01.440
offer is that tesla needs the extra money in the face of falling stock

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:04.880
prices and problems it's been having on the assembly line and the massive influx

00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:10.639
of elon musk's smoking weed memes

00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:14.960
it's really been everywhere now halo might be finally coming back to the pc

00:05:12.880 --> 00:05:17.919
sooner than initially expected although the next installment in the series halo

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:23.039
infinite has already been announced for Windows the pc may also be getting halo

00:05:20.479 --> 00:05:26.560
5 guardians this report is based on an update to its amazon listing that

00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:31.120
implies halo 5 will soon be part of the play anywhere ecosystem that allows

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

00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:39.919
platforms and as cool as a halo 1 lan party is

00:05:37.280 --> 00:05:44.000
i can i can say from experience yeah yeah i just as soon give guardians a

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

00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:51.280
so i need to know what happens and keep a lookout for an interesting

00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:55.199
power delivery system that isn't a motorized scooter battery the next time

00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:58.880
you go to walmart the retail giant announced a partnership with asia a

00:05:57.280 --> 00:06:02.800
company that provides wireless charging technology walmart is deploying the tech

00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:06.560
in order to cut the costs associated with running a bunch of messy wires to

00:06:04.960 --> 00:06:09.680
gadgets like handheld scanners and surveillance cameras although there's no

00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:13.199
word yet on whether shoppers will be able to charge their phones wirelessly

00:06:11.919 --> 00:06:16.400
and maybe do a little comparison shopping while they're at it because if

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

00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:25.840
like that james because he's kind of like pro business

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

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:33.199
said i like business yes

00:06:30.960 --> 00:06:37.840
i love it it's business time and business is good

00:06:35.919 --> 00:06:40.639
and speaking of comparison that's today's show

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

00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:51.639
dose of tech news that's a little too confident for my taste john

00:06:48.840 --> 00:06:56.240
incomprehensible technique incomparably incomprehensibly good dose of tech news

00:06:54.240 --> 00:07:01.400
the news will just be okay on wednesday okay guys

00:06:57.280 --> 00:07:01.400
especially because Linus is hosting
