1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,640
haven't gotten tired yet of the NVIDIA versus AMD fanboy wars in every comment

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:11,280
section everywhere well that's great because a new

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:17,440
challenger approaches and that challenger is none other than Intel who

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:20,080
just announced that their first ever

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:26,080
sort of discrete GPU is going to be hitting the market sometime in 2020. now

6
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:30,240
although Intel isn't exactly completely new to the world of graphics processing

7
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:35,440
with their integrated gpus having become a mainstay in pcs for a very long time

8
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:41,840
and as i alluded to before they did in fact have a discrete GPU back in 1998.

9
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:46,399
this news represents a significant pivot in Intel's business which started late

10
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:51,600
last year when Intel brought raja kaduri on board from AMD where he was in charge

11
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:57,280
of the development of their Radeon GPU line currently we don't have any details

12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:01,120
no pricing no performance no branding we don't even know what color the shroud's

13
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:05,439
going to be but what we do know is that Intel is planning to roll out high-end

14
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:09,119
gpus whatever that means

15
00:01:07,119 --> 00:01:17,520
and that's not the only major shake-up today as apple is rumored to get this

16
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:20,560
actually be ditching its proprietary

17
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,560
lightning connector

18
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:28,880
according to a report from digi times next year's new iphone will probably

19
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:30,560
support usbc instead of the lightning

20
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:36,400
connector that we've been stuck with since the release of the iphone 5 way

21
00:01:33,119 --> 00:01:38,479
back in 2012. now this isn't confirmed

22
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:43,600
and this rumor is based on sources at the suppliers of the iphone's components

23
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:47,920
so it could just be a a big what's a word for a boondoggle a

24
00:01:45,759 --> 00:01:52,399
boondoggle is that is that a could be a boondoggle chase but it might not be too

25
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:57,360
surprising considering that apple's macbooks have featured a single usb-c

26
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:01,840
port and nothing else for quite some time now so fingers crossed that this

27
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:06,240
rumor is true when iOS users won't have to keep buying cables that are not only

28
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:09,759
useless for anything except i devices but that break more easily than an

29
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:14,640
expensive gadget that Linus is trying not to drop really

30
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:19,840
and although washington dc has just dropped its 2015 net neutrality

31
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:26,000
protections following an fcc order washington state has become the first in

32
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,280
the union to tell a jeep pie to uh

33
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,520
go by himself like in the face with its

34
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:35,280
own state level net neutrality law taking effect earlier this week the

35
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:39,680
state of washington was actually quite proactive on the matter having passed

36
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:45,040
the law around three months ago in anticipation of the new federal rules so

37
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:50,560
the protections are the usual fare of a ban on blocking or slowing down certain

38
00:02:47,519 --> 00:02:53,680
services as well as making paid fast

39
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:56,000
lanes unlawful for any isp providing

40
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:59,680
service in washington more states are expected to follow suit in the near

41
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:04,159
future though the fcc will probably be taking any states that pass similar laws

42
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:08,720
to court because i guess they just really like bad press

43
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:12,000
speaking of bad press today's quick bits are brought to you by

44
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:15,840
us pressing tape on sure that's right you

45
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:19,920
should go check out our merge store for t-shirts hoodies stickers and more from

46
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:24,400
both TechLinked as well as Linus tech tips and techwiki Colton and dennis have

47
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:28,000
been slaving away in our garment factory next door hand-knitting shirts until

48
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:31,920
their fingers bleed that was a total lie but the swag is awesome so check it out

49
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,840
at the link in the video description and help support TechLinked

50
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:40,319
all right so the big story in the gaming world right now is that nintendo has

51
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:47,200
finally announced super smash bros ultimate for the switch and this is huge

52
00:03:44,239 --> 00:03:53,440
it will feature every character that has ever fought in a smash bros game except

53
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:57,840
waluigi but like anyway they're bringing the total number

54
00:03:55,040 --> 00:04:02,159
of playable characters to 65 once the game drops on december 7th a huge number

55
00:04:00,799 --> 00:04:06,080
and only a little bit disappointing because just waluigi and three more

56
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:11,280
would have been pretty nice and wouldn't it be nice if you could cram more memory into your laptop lenovo

57
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:16,880
certainly thinks so as they just announced a new thinkpad that will

58
00:04:12,959 --> 00:04:20,239
feature up to 128 gigs of RAM really

59
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:23,040
it's aimed at workstation users but

60
00:04:20,239 --> 00:04:28,320
it'll also enable uh terrible habits like opening up hundreds of needless

61
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,840
browser tabs all at once which is uh

62
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:34,639
making me feel pretty warm and fuzzy right now speaking of browsers the only

63
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:39,520
way to get a chrome extension after this year will be to install one through the

64
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:45,120
official web store google is removing the ability to install extensions from

65
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:47,600
elsewhere on all platforms even in the

66
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:52,720
developer options by the end of this year so this move is intended to help

67
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:57,360
with malware prevention but you might have to forget about that you know

68
00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:01,440
homebrew auto pirated video downloader 9000 extension that you were cooking up

69
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:04,960
in your basement just kidding you probably weren't but

70
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:10,320
mcafee recently announced that it discovered that cortana could be a

71
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:15,199
vector for those aforementioned basement hackers as it was revealed that the

72
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:20,960
digital assistant could be exploited to run malicious code from the lock screen

73
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:24,800
though since we know Windows pcs don't exactly become impregnable just by

74
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:28,880
locking them it might not be that surprising to you but microsoft is

75
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:33,360
working on it anyway and has released a patch for the issue so go download it to

76
00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:37,120
keep cortana from spilling all of the juicy little secrets that you've told

77
00:05:35,039 --> 00:05:41,360
her finally if you're one of the lucky folks who owns an autonomous car please

78
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:46,800
please please make sure you're still paying attention tesla is updating its

79
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,560
autopilot system to nag drivers even

80
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:52,080
more often who aren't holding the steering wheel after a number of

81
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:57,680
accidents resulting from what tesla described as carelessness on the part of

82
00:05:55,039 --> 00:06:03,440
drivers so it looks like elon musk is about to find out whether accident risk

83
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,120
or annoying ux will be a bigger drag on

84
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:08,479
his bottom line speaking of bottom lines that's the

85
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:15,600
bottom line for today and we'll see you again friday for all the news that's fit

86
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:15,600
to vomit at you in six minutes or less
