oh man tech news like
so weird like ah like
like what anyways so stupid
Intel can just not catch a break these
days as yet another side channel vulnerability has been found in the
company's processors dang it Intel come on this one is called cash out because
it could enable an attack that exploits the CPU's caching mechanisms to select
what data to leak as opposed to waiting for a big dump of non-specific data
which is how other speculative execution attacks work the disclosure of this new
vulnerability comes just as Intel releases its third patch meant to fix
the zombie load aka mds flaws but as
well they can't they just can't get ahead of it but as reported by researchers the
previous patches didn't fix the whole thing so
there's no guarantee this one will either now one reason why we keep
hearing about these new flaws is that Intel's chips are still based off
architecture from more than seven years ago whereas AMD zen architecture is only
around four years old and not as widespread so we might be hearing about
a bunch of flaws and ryzen processors in a few years okay guys so let's not be so
quick let's not be so quick to talk about you know how much Intel sucks
right now although that is exactly what we're doing right now
well we now know that samsung's second foldable handset is called the galaxy z
flip we also know basically everything else about it german language site
winfuture.de got its hands on official renders of the flip
that's what you called in german in a dazzling purplish indigo kind of color
what color is that james i'm not looking at it it's got a 6.7
inch display with an extra one-inch always on display on the back for when
it's folded it's got a snapdragon 855 plus eight gigs of RAM dual 12 megapixel
rear cameras and a 10 megapixel selfie cam 3 300 milliamp hour battery with
quick and wireless charging plus a side mounted fingerprint scanner how about a
headphone jack nope the only thing that remains unclear
is whether we need something like this at all like apparently when it's folded
it's 17.3 millimeters thick so instead
of having like a thin rectangle in my pocket i could have a
thick square why do you just get two phones
duh and huawei wow
the bastards actually did it the company is going to be allowed to build out 5g
network infrastructure in the uk after all but in a limited role that will
prevent huawei equipment from being used in sensitive core parts of the country's
networks now all that's because the uk's national cyber security center analyzed
huawei's technology and supply chain and concluded that huawei was a high-risk
vendor but is asking british companies to use huawei in a limited way so we can
collectively manage the risk the eu is following the uk's lead
recommending that member states choose their own 5g suppliers but basically be
very careful about it so at this point this is like
look we ordered pizza and oh who delivered it a mass murderer he's at the
door right now do we take it he might kill us just don't let him in
the house yeah yeah you can like open the door and kind of yeah what if the
sideways and spread it through the crack that there we go that should be fine now

it's tarzan i don't know what song Intel's desktop chips might be sucking
more than ever but on the low end mobile side there might be something to get
excited about el chapoza's informatico
spotted an Intel lakefield processor on user benchmark and yeah it's 85 slower
than a 10th gen core i3 but it'll run at
a fraction of the power enabling higher power models that will give qualcomm a
run for its money in mobile devices exciting huh
yes ow that was the hardest
high five the coronavirus continues to spread and while the world is still
sorting out whether this is a genuine emergency google is being proactive by
temporarily shutting down its offices in china hong kong and taiwan and will keep
them closed after the lunar new year holiday ends samsung and foxconn are
also shutting down their chinese factories along with many other manufacturing plants in the country so
while technology cannot catch human viruses the industry may see an impact
all the same eve the company responsible for the great crowdfunded ev Windows two
in one that's a tongue twister is back with the spectrum monitor featuring
pretty awesome specs like a 27 inch ips panel HDR 400 with 450 nits brightness
and a qhd 144 hertz version for 364
bucks the only question is will they ship it
because many people are still waiting for their evs that they ordered a long
time ago give them your money and wait to find out that's that's the that's the gist eve
says they've solved their shipping problems but who knows if that's true
you me adam he's pretty smart bible reference oh
ltd is probably going to review this uh monitor so maybe just wait i i know it's
hard and researchers have started tracking fishing fleets by attaching
radar sensors to albatross okay
so it's one thing to track animals in the wild it's another thing to use
animals to track us before we know it facebook's going to be
stealing our dogs and implanting cameras in them and then they'll know how we
talk to our dogs i don't have one but you do disgusting
see i don't like it look i know when an episode has gone too far so i'm ending
this come back on friday for more tech news and we'll talk to you how we talk
to our dogs with respect
you don't know and dignity hello
hello nice to see you my dog my dog sit please
and i'll give you a treat it's tech news
