00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.640
haven't gotten tired yet of the NVIDIA versus AMD fanboy wars in every comment

00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:11.280
section everywhere well that's great because a new

00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:17.440
challenger approaches and that challenger is none other than Intel who

00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:20.080
just announced that their first ever

00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:26.080
sort of discrete GPU is going to be hitting the market sometime in 2020. now

00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:30.240
although Intel isn't exactly completely new to the world of graphics processing

00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:35.440
with their integrated gpus having become a mainstay in pcs for a very long time

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.

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:46.399
this news represents a significant pivot in Intel's business which started late

00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:51.600
last year when Intel brought raja kaduri on board from AMD where he was in charge

00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:57.280
of the development of their Radeon GPU line currently we don't have any details

00:00:54.800 --> 00:01:01.120
no pricing no performance no branding we don't even know what color the shroud's

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

00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:09.119
gpus whatever that means

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

00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:20.560
actually be ditching its proprietary

00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:20.560
lightning connector

00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:28.880
according to a report from digi times next year's new iphone will probably

00:01:25.759 --> 00:01:30.560
support usbc instead of the lightning

00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:36.400
connector that we've been stuck with since the release of the iphone 5 way

00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:38.479
back in 2012. now this isn't confirmed

00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:43.600
and this rumor is based on sources at the suppliers of the iphone's components

00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:47.920
so it could just be a a big what's a word for a boondoggle a

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

00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:57.360
surprising considering that apple's macbooks have featured a single usb-c

00:01:54.960 --> 00:02:01.840
port and nothing else for quite some time now so fingers crossed that this

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

00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:09.759
useless for anything except i devices but that break more easily than an

00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:14.640
expensive gadget that Linus is trying not to drop really

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:19.840
and although washington dc has just dropped its 2015 net neutrality

00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:26.000
protections following an fcc order washington state has become the first in

00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:29.280
the union to tell a jeep pie to uh

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:31.520
go by himself like in the face with its

00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:35.280
own state level net neutrality law taking effect earlier this week the

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:39.680
state of washington was actually quite proactive on the matter having passed

00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:45.040
the law around three months ago in anticipation of the new federal rules so

00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:50.560
the protections are the usual fare of a ban on blocking or slowing down certain

00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:53.680
services as well as making paid fast

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:56.000
lanes unlawful for any isp providing

00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:59.680
service in washington more states are expected to follow suit in the near

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:04.159
future though the fcc will probably be taking any states that pass similar laws

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:08.720
to court because i guess they just really like bad press

00:03:07.040 --> 00:03:12.000
speaking of bad press today's quick bits are brought to you by

00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:15.840
us pressing tape on sure that's right you

00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:19.920
should go check out our merge store for t-shirts hoodies stickers and more from

00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:24.400
both TechLinked as well as Linus tech tips and techwiki Colton and dennis have

00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:28.000
been slaving away in our garment factory next door hand-knitting shirts until

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

00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:35.840
at the link in the video description and help support TechLinked

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.319
all right so the big story in the gaming world right now is that nintendo has

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:47.200
finally announced super smash bros ultimate for the switch and this is huge

00:03:44.239 --> 00:03:53.440
it will feature every character that has ever fought in a smash bros game except

00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:57.840
waluigi but like anyway they're bringing the total number

00:03:55.040 --> 00:04:02.159
of playable characters to 65 once the game drops on december 7th a huge number

00:04:00.799 --> 00:04:06.080
and only a little bit disappointing because just waluigi and three more

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

00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:16.880
certainly thinks so as they just announced a new thinkpad that will

00:04:12.959 --> 00:04:20.239
feature up to 128 gigs of RAM really

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:23.040
it's aimed at workstation users but

00:04:20.239 --> 00:04:28.320
it'll also enable uh terrible habits like opening up hundreds of needless

00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:29.840
browser tabs all at once which is uh

00:04:28.320 --> 00:04:34.639
making me feel pretty warm and fuzzy right now speaking of browsers the only

00:04:32.080 --> 00:04:39.520
way to get a chrome extension after this year will be to install one through the

00:04:36.960 --> 00:04:45.120
official web store google is removing the ability to install extensions from

00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:47.600
elsewhere on all platforms even in the

00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:52.720
developer options by the end of this year so this move is intended to help

00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:57.360
with malware prevention but you might have to forget about that you know

00:04:54.560 --> 00:05:01.440
homebrew auto pirated video downloader 9000 extension that you were cooking up

00:04:59.840 --> 00:05:04.960
in your basement just kidding you probably weren't but

00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:10.320
mcafee recently announced that it discovered that cortana could be a

00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:15.199
vector for those aforementioned basement hackers as it was revealed that the

00:05:12.400 --> 00:05:20.960
digital assistant could be exploited to run malicious code from the lock screen

00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:24.800
though since we know Windows pcs don't exactly become impregnable just by

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:28.880
locking them it might not be that surprising to you but microsoft is

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

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:37.120
keep cortana from spilling all of the juicy little secrets that you've told

00:05:35.039 --> 00:05:41.360
her finally if you're one of the lucky folks who owns an autonomous car please

00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:46.800
please please make sure you're still paying attention tesla is updating its

00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:48.560
autopilot system to nag drivers even

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:52.080
more often who aren't holding the steering wheel after a number of

00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:57.680
accidents resulting from what tesla described as carelessness on the part of

00:05:55.039 --> 00:06:03.440
drivers so it looks like elon musk is about to find out whether accident risk

00:06:00.400 --> 00:06:05.120
or annoying ux will be a bigger drag on

00:06:03.440 --> 00:06:08.479
his bottom line speaking of bottom lines that's the

00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:15.600
