1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,120
okay we're trying something new today you have to guess okay it's that see if

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:11,700
you spot anything different Tech news

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:16,080
the USB implementers Forum has yet again angered fans of reasonable naming

4
00:00:13,740 --> 00:00:23,460
conventions with the announcement of USB 4 version 2.0 yeah now this wouldn't

5
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:25,500
even be that bad in a vacuum usb4 V2 you

6
00:00:23,460 --> 00:00:29,939
know yeah yeah I can see that annoying but I could get used to it there's no

7
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:34,860
gens anymore the really annoying thing is it represents yet another departure

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:41,640
from previous USB naming schemes which were responsible for monstrosities like

9
00:00:37,140 --> 00:00:44,100
USB 3.2 Gen 2 by 2. why couldn't they

10
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:50,280
just call this USB 4.1 that would well as developer Benson Lu

11
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:54,420
well as developer Benson long points out the term version means that this

12
00:00:52,559 --> 00:00:58,860
announcement is mainly geared towards developers who know that this is simply

13
00:00:56,699 --> 00:01:05,339
the second version of the spec document for usb4 instead of seeing usb4 version

14
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:11,220
2.0 on a product box consumers will probably see USB 4 20 gigabits per

15
00:01:08,220 --> 00:01:13,140
second or USB 480 gigabits per second

16
00:01:11,220 --> 00:01:19,020
actually acceptable which is actually more syllables and is worse but

17
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:20,939
comprehensible come on Benson JK I

18
00:01:19,020 --> 00:01:24,960
appreciate the tweets he tweeted at us hi good news if you didn't pick up on it

19
00:01:22,979 --> 00:01:29,640
just there is that version 2.0 could allow your existing usb4 cables to

20
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:34,020
support 80 gigabits per second double their current Max Speed depending on the

21
00:01:31,619 --> 00:01:37,439
cable shut the front door I won't maybe this is just a fact of life you know

22
00:01:35,460 --> 00:01:41,939
things get faster and then they make less sense that's relativity people slow

23
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:45,840
down Einstein knew about this the debate around AI art has been inflamed once

24
00:01:44,159 --> 00:01:50,640
more following the news that a man named Jason Allen won a Colorado State Fair

25
00:01:48,420 --> 00:01:56,240
art competition by submitting an AI generated image The Twist Jason Allen is

26
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:56,240
an AI

27
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:04,020
Alan actually submitted the image as Jason Allen via mid-journey the name of

28
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:09,300
the art generator he used but State Fair judges in Colorado understandably didn't

29
00:02:06,119 --> 00:02:10,739
appear to know what that implied oh he's

30
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:14,400
coming from injury and Alan didn't seem to think it was

31
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:19,560
necessary to be more explicit about how the artwork came about since um since he

32
00:02:17,099 --> 00:02:24,480
used a special prompt which he will be publishing at a later date that's art

33
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:28,800
baby now the idea of creating prompts as a specialized skill might seem weird but

34
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:34,160
already there are marketplaces like prompt base where such special prompts

35
00:02:31,020 --> 00:02:36,300
are being sold by prompt Engineers

36
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:39,300
James and I talked about this for half an hour yesterday on talk linked so

37
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:43,620
listen to that if you need some time to process this wild new reality we're

38
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:48,060
really smart it's happening and processor design company ARM has sued

39
00:02:46,019 --> 00:02:51,840
one of its biggest licensees processor design company Qualcomm over the

40
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:56,040
latter's acquisition of processor design company nuvia over a year ago it's a bit

41
00:02:54,300 --> 00:02:58,980
of a Cane enable situation they're just attacking

42
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:03,720
you know but you know about the Bible see arms upset because nuvia is licensed

43
00:03:01,860 --> 00:03:09,000
to develop chips using ARM technology expired in March and mostly covered the

44
00:03:06,180 --> 00:03:13,080
creation of server CPUs but Qualcomm is making chips for laptops smartphones

45
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:17,700
cars and more which was covered by qualcomm's license under

46
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:22,140
which nuvia should technically now fall it's a weird case made all the more

47
00:03:20,220 --> 00:03:26,040
confusing by the fact that ARM only stands to gain if Qualcomm succeeds in

48
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:30,239
the laptop and server markets where armbase Tech isn't as strong as x86 it's

49
00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:34,920
like shooting yourself in the foot trying to hit a spider but the spider's

50
00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:38,239
trying to steal your shoe it's trying to shoot trying to get away with it so you

51
00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:42,780
shoot and oops too many now it's time for quick bits

52
00:03:40,980 --> 00:03:46,739
brought to you by EK fluid gaming provider of custom water cooled and

53
00:03:44,819 --> 00:03:51,540
all-in-one gaming PCs they're the coolest PCS I've ever met

54
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:55,260
right now you can get up to two thousand dollars off a range of their gaming PCs

55
00:03:53,580 --> 00:03:59,940
with deals on everything from your first gaming rig to a fully liquid cooled RTX

56
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:03,959
3090 powered system each computer is built to order with tailored EK water

57
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,620
cooling and a three-year warranty for those on a budget there's available zero

58
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:11,400
percent financing options and a variety of builds at different price points so

59
00:04:09,420 --> 00:04:16,859
check them out at the link below quick bits weren't always like this they were

60
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:20,400
different but before Intel has held up their promise to show how competitive

61
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:25,080
their Arc gaming gpus are against NVIDIA's offerings when it comes to Ray

62
00:04:22,139 --> 00:04:28,979
tracing blue dudes Tom Peterson and Ryan shroud posted a new video to the Intel

63
00:04:27,419 --> 00:04:35,880
Graphics Channel today with Benchmark showing the arc a770 performing about 14

64
00:04:32,340 --> 00:04:38,880
better on average than an RTX 3060 in

65
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,800
1080P gaming with Ray tracing enabled

66
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:45,060
you know they're really trying you know and I honestly feel like bumping that 14

67
00:04:42,660 --> 00:04:49,560
up a few points just for that like good job guys love a positive attitude Google

68
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:53,880
has expanded user Choice billing for the Play Store from the European economic

69
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:59,040
area to include now India Australia Indonesia and Japan

70
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:03,419
nope we're not special where developers will now be able to apply to accept

71
00:05:00,660 --> 00:05:07,020
payment methods other than Google pay if developers are approved they'll get a

72
00:05:05,220 --> 00:05:11,639
four percent discount on Play Store fees which could mean devs that already

73
00:05:08,940 --> 00:05:15,780
qualify for a lower 15 standard cut could pay as little as 11 percent

74
00:05:14,580 --> 00:05:21,120
that's not bad C corporations can do good

75
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:24,900
things you just have to continually Mount public campaigns and threaten them

76
00:05:23,100 --> 00:05:28,979
with lawsuits and Federal Regulation it's how it's always been it's how the

77
00:05:26,940 --> 00:05:33,120
cavemen did it the U.S government has banned chip makers like NVIDIA and AMD

78
00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:37,199
from selling their most powerful AI processors to China in order to prevent

79
00:05:35,340 --> 00:05:41,759
such chips from being potentially used by the Chinese military much better to

80
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:45,960
force them to innovate and possibly create something even more powerful only

81
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:50,460
a matter of time NVIDIA will however be allowed to continue producing its

82
00:05:47,580 --> 00:05:55,080
Flagship h100 chips in China but once a chip is finished it must be sealed in

83
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:59,780
wax and launched out of a cannon over the sea to land safely in America we'll

84
00:05:57,780 --> 00:06:04,259
be waiting with our mouths open ohio-based company folio photonics

85
00:06:02,580 --> 00:06:09,479
have the answer to the problem of long-term data storage CD freaking ROMs

86
00:06:07,919 --> 00:06:14,340
okay they're not CDs they're called active disks which can store up to a

87
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,520
terabyte for more than a century while being resistant to changes in

88
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:23,400
temperature and humidity and being immune to radiation and electromagnetic

89
00:06:20,820 --> 00:06:27,479
pulses oh I love a good pulse you would there are also like five bucks a

90
00:06:25,259 --> 00:06:33,000
terabyte so the Cockroaches are gonna go wild for these things did you because

91
00:06:29,220 --> 00:06:35,280
when a nuke happens and Halo infinite's

92
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:40,860
developers 343 Industries have announced that the game will not support Split

93
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:43,440
Screen Co-op a favorite feature seen as

94
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:48,360
a franchise staple among hardcore Halo fans yeah the news comes after company

95
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:52,919
Representatives explicitly addressed earlier games lack of the feature and

96
00:06:50,580 --> 00:06:57,780
promised it would return in both 2017 and 2019. this is only one of the many

97
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:02,460
complaints Gamers have about this particular game and virtually every

98
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:06,240
other game they have siblings we are done making this Tech Lane come back on

99
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:12,300
Monday for more Tech news and you can let me know if you spotted the new weird

100
00:07:08,419 --> 00:07:14,780
it was weird run behind me I thought

101
00:07:12,300 --> 00:07:14,780
you're gonna hit me
