00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.200
I can only assume Apple unveiled a number of new Macs powered by their new

00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:09.599
M3 processor today but I can't know for sure because they scheduled their event

00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:13.759
to start like an hour after we finished filming this video it's like I've been

00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:19.080
working on my Tim Cook impression for nothing some fresh leaks have sprung

00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:25.800
regarding NVIDIA's RTX 40 super series of gpus specifically the RTX 4080 super

00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:27.880
the card's PCI ID was found by someone

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:35.680
potentially with access to a beta driver and added to the PCI ID D repository a

00:00:31.439 --> 00:00:39.399
place where PC IDs are reposited except

00:00:35.680 --> 00:00:42.520
the GPU listed in the PCI ID is the

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:46.399
a103 the same chip that powers the nons

00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:49.680
super RTX 480 with pretty much its full

00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:51.640
strength NVIDIA could enable its 512

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:56.800
disabled shaders but that sounds like a drop in the bucket compared to the gpus

00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:02.559
already enabled 9,728 shaders and sure every little bit

00:00:59.960 --> 00:01:06.640
bit extra performance is nice unless in order to get it you have to buy a new

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:13.560
GPU for the same MSRP that the original RTX 480 launched at which is 1,200 bucks

00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:20.159
that's what NVIDIA did with the RTX 2080 super which launched in 2019 for 800

00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:24.759
bucks how many dough same amount of dough but hey if the 4080 super isn't

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:31.000
doing it for you there's also this RTX 460 Ti from ASUS with a built-in m.2 SSD

00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:35.680
slot if if you want to remember a time when news about new graphics cards made

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:39.960
you feel something other than that sour acid taste in the back of your throat

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:45.000
for missing something now I just feel dread Qualcomm made some big claims

00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:50.079
about their Snapdragon X Elite laptop s so's at the Snapdragon Summit last week

00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:54.360
but like all such events Qualcomm only backed up those claims with slides

00:01:52.119 --> 00:01:59.320
looking like barely modified PowerPoint templates woke up the night before in a

00:01:56.960 --> 00:02:02.399
mad panic and just slap some photos on there

00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:05.920
should this line be blue I don't know it doesn't matter but some Outlets

00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:10.319
including Windows Central were able to take a closer look at detailed test

00:02:08.119 --> 00:02:16.120
results and it seems like Qualcomm wasn't just blowing hot air both the 23

00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:22.239
watt and 80 watt variant of the X Elite blew away Windows laptops with top end

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:23.840
chips from Intel and AMD in PC Mark 10

00:02:22.239 --> 00:02:28.440
and while the lower-end variant didn't destroy like the higher-end one did in

00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:32.000
cinebench 2024 its single core performance still came out ahead now as

00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:36.760
we've said before whether these chips will actually be worth using with

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:41.760
Windows depends on whether Microsoft can change the fact that Windows 11 on ARM

00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:46.519
is kind of butt to use before they come out next year but hey you know what I'm

00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:51.480
a simple man I see big bars on a performance graph and it just makes me

00:02:48.440 --> 00:02:53.159
happy I like big bars and I cannot lie

00:02:51.480 --> 00:02:58.599
of course qualcomm's comparison of the Snapdragon X Elite to Apple's M2 Rings

00:02:56.760 --> 00:03:02.680
pretty Hollow coming the week before Apple launches the M3 three which is

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:06.560
probably much better because that's what they did today right I don't I don't

00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:11.319
know if they did that or not I hate this meta has launched a paid adree

00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:18.959
subscription for Facebook and Instagram in the European Union for €10 a month

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:21.840
via desktop or 13 via Android or iOS for

00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:25.879
all must pay Google and apple their 30% tithe they're passing around the basket

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:31.159
you can't ignore it the church only takes 10% Tim Seas

00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:34.959
all put it in the subscription isn't

00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:39.439
available elsewhere primarily because it's intended to appease EU Regulators

00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:43.040
skeptical of meta's AD targeting and data collection practices the

00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:48.560
subscription is only available to users 18 and up while teenage users will

00:03:45.720 --> 00:03:51.959
temporarily stop seeing ads entirely until meta comes up with some other way

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:56.200
of profiting off damage to their underdeveloped psyches there working on

00:03:54.159 --> 00:04:01.560
it in the meantime meta is apparently working on an API for its third social

00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:05.680
platform threads but seeing as threads a business transcription service that

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:10.120
trademarked the name in 2012 has already served threads with a 30-day warning to

00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:14.360
change the name threads is going to have to hurry was only slightly confusing now

00:04:12.799 --> 00:04:18.840
it's time for quick bits brought to you by volcanica coffee because what goes

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:23.960
better with tech news than a nice cup of joe I don't know can someone Google it

00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:27.960
volcanica coffee sources their beans from the finest crops in the best

00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:33.160
volcanic regions from around the world volcanoes that's hot like your coffee

00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:37.960
unless you have it iced then it'll be cold that's how that works their exotic

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:41.919
highquality coffee has distinctly different flavors and nuances to

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:46.840
tantalize your taste buds so go check out volcanica coffee at the link below

00:04:43.840 --> 00:04:49.759
and use code Linus 15 for 15% off your

00:04:46.840 --> 00:04:53.120
order the quick bits aren't actually that quick okay yeah we know we just we

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:57.360
just want them to feel nice about themselves okay they deserve that yeah

00:04:55.240 --> 00:05:01.720
you're quick chat GPT now has an advanced data analysis feature that all

00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:07.759
allows users to upload documents like a PDF and chat with it like a spell that

00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:10.960
imbus an inanimate object with a living soul but then wears off bringing up

00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:16.039
horrible questions like was that actually alive for like 3 minutes are

00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:20.400
you a monster similar functionality has already been offered by various services

00:05:18.080 --> 00:05:25.319
like chat with PDF whose developer doesn't seem worried about losing its

00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:27.160
400,000 users probably because the users

00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:33.000
already paid the subscription fee but are the PDFs alive Spirit of Tim Cook

00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:38.000
he's smiling on me shooting this video so late that the Sun is setting I fix it

00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:43.840
has announced a partnership with Microsoft to provide official replacement parts for various Microsoft

00:05:41.520 --> 00:05:48.440
Surface devices as well as step-by-step guides and disassembly videos via their

00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:53.880
dedicated Microsoft repair Hub Parts provided include batteries ssds displays

00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:57.600
keyboards and even screws unprovided however is the answer to the

00:05:55.400 --> 00:06:01.440
philosophical question if you replace every piece of your laptop one by one

00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:05.600
and until no original pieces left is it still the same laptop and does it still

00:06:03.479 --> 00:06:10.560
belong to thesis the White House has issued an executive order on safe secure

00:06:08.280 --> 00:06:15.160
and trustworthy artificial intelligence which pushes for greater transparency of

00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:18.639
AI models and labeling of AI created content the order will require

00:06:16.919 --> 00:06:22.479
developers of AI systems with the potential to seriously disrupt Public

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:27.319
Safety civil rights the economy or national security to share critical

00:06:24.960 --> 00:06:31.440
testing information with the government this would apply primarily to Future mod

00:06:29.440 --> 00:06:37.120
model Beyond a certain power level let's say over 9,000 what and would not

00:06:35.080 --> 00:06:41.039
involve restricting any AI tools that are currently available it's probably

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:45.240
the best we can hope for at least when the average Senator is a quarter Century

00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:49.080
older than the internet itself take what you get Google is promising a rescue

00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:53.120
patch for an Android bug that causes some users with multiple Android user

00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:57.800
accounts on their device to get locked out of the devic's storage from the

00:06:55.120 --> 00:07:02.599
primary count upon upgrading to Android 14 despite being a relatively serious

00:07:00.599 --> 00:07:07.840
bug Google seemed to ignore the problem for 10 days leaving hundreds of users in

00:07:05.280 --> 00:07:11.919
the Lurch in some ways the bug is a lot like ransomware except instead of a guy

00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:16.240
named Sergey holding my nudes hostage for money it's Google completely by

00:07:13.840 --> 00:07:21.080
accident so it's okay that makes it better I'm less mad meanwhile Google has

00:07:18.840 --> 00:07:25.560
spent time figuring out how to turn any old pair of active noise cancelling

00:07:22.919 --> 00:07:30.199
earbuds into heart rate monitors through a process the research team calls APG or

00:07:28.840 --> 00:07:34.160
audio plethysmography catchy I just wanted you

00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:37.240
to know that it works by sending out an ultrasound signal with the earbud

00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:42.319
speakers and picking it up with a microphones which sounds like it lets

00:07:39.280 --> 00:07:44.159
humans become more like bats or dolphins

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:47.639
and I'm not sure that's a place we want science to

00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:52.159
go okay yeah depending on your priorities I mean speak for

00:07:49.960 --> 00:07:56.840
yourself that's okay the dolphin sound that people use on TV is actually sped

00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:58.240
up cabur really yeah it's not a dolphin

00:07:56.840 --> 00:08:01.280
and the eagle sound is actually a red tailed hawk wow I don't care at all

00:07:59.840 --> 00:08:06.319
about not knowing about the Apple stuff now I learned I learned that but I know

00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:10.800
where I want you to go back to your screen of choice this time on Wednesday

00:08:08.960 --> 00:08:14.639
for more Tech news when we will definitely know what has happened at

00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:20.280
Apple's event today time you know it's crazy
