WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.240
so Linus is live streaming right now he decided to live stream right when i was

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:10.080
gonna film TechLinked unbelievable so i have to talk a little quieter okay it's

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:15.599
just like we're having a private conversation okay now it could be argued that tesla

00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:19.840
kick-started the auto industry's move towards electric vehicles but their cars

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:24.400
have always been a bit on the high side in terms of price well that's still the

00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:28.320
case but they're moving more towards affordable prices yesterday tesla

00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:32.880
announced its standard range model 3 would be available for 35 000 bucks

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:37.040
before any federal or local tax incentives the company's model s and x

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.719
vehicles can now also be had for about fifteen thousand dollars cheaper

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:44.480
depending on the version the price cuts apparently necessitate tesla closing

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:48.719
most of its physical stores and switching to online only sales all this

00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:53.280
comes at the heels of the announcement of volvo's polestar 2 an all-electric

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:58.000
vehicle seen as a competitor to the model 3 and the first car to feature

00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:01.680
built-in Android auto and google assistant you don't even need to connect

00:00:59.680 --> 00:01:05.840
your phone it also starts with a chair mounted pressure switch so that's cool

00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:09.280
wow electric cars are now much more affordable for slightly less rich people

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:14.880
than before now i've avoided addressing this on techlink because it's kind of a

00:01:12.320 --> 00:01:20.080
sensitive issue but it's been so in my face that i kind of have to youtube has

00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:23.920
disabled comments on all videos featuring children the move comes in

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:27.360
response to the discovery that pedophiles were leaving comments on

00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:31.680
videos of miners that weren't just creepy and disgusting but were also

00:01:29.119 --> 00:01:36.079
being used to link to actual illegal content youtube believes the problem is

00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:40.479
so widespread that disabling comments is necessary to keep children safe some

00:01:38.479 --> 00:01:43.920
creators will be able to keep comments enabled but will have to actively

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:48.320
moderate their comments channels with lots of videos featuring children like

00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:51.680
family vloggers are understandably upset given that this destroys their ability

00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:56.799
to interact with their fans on the platform but ceo susan wojiki said that

00:01:54.479 --> 00:02:00.799
it's a necessary trade-off to keep kids safe it's unclear whether this policy is

00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:05.759
here to stay or whether it's a temporary measure but it is a nice reminder of how

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:09.200
horrible humanity can be sometimes don't forget

00:02:06.880 --> 00:02:13.440
we're monsters not many ways you can make a joke about that and normally we

00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:16.640
wouldn't be reporting on driver updates as a major news story but this is one

00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:20.239
you might actually want to pay attention to NVIDIA has identified eight security

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:24.160
vulnerabilities in their graphics drivers and are urging users to update

00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:28.319
as soon as possible users who don't update may be at risk of remote code

00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:32.640
execution denial of service leaks of personal info and spontaneously

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:36.160
combusting pcs nope

00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:39.599
not that last one a lot of enthusiasts often stay on an older driver to make

00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:43.120
sure their system remains stable but is that worth having to watch your monitor

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:47.280
as a hacker leaks your nudes right in front of your eyes and then dying in a

00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:51.360
fiery explosion i don't think so so update your drivers

00:02:49.760 --> 00:02:55.519
unless you have an AMD graphics card then i just wasted 30 seconds of your

00:02:52.959 --> 00:03:00.080
time i'm sorry it's time for quick bits brought to you by mac weldon finding

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:02.959
good clothes can be such a hassle well mack weldon goes and takes that hassle

00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:06.959
and gets rid of it they make modern men's

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:10.640
essentials elevated by technical innovation for example mack weldon's

00:03:08.959 --> 00:03:15.519
silver line of underwear shirts and socks are naturally antimicrobial

00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:19.360
meaning they eliminate odor meaning you won't stink as bad even if they're not

LMG dot gg slash tl mac weldon or by

00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:44.080
clicking the link in the description it's on to the quick bits usb ports and

00:03:42.640 --> 00:03:48.080
devices have been vulnerable to malicious actors for some time but now

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:53.599
Thunderbolt is joining the club a vulnerability called thunderclap was

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:55.599
expounded upon at the ndss 2019 security

00:03:53.599 --> 00:04:00.159
conference and it could apparently allow malicious Thunderbolt devices to steal

00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:03.840
data directly from a computer's memory yeah not so high and mighty now are you

00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:07.920
Thunderbolt now you know what it's like to be a usb

00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:12.319
screw you man aussie tech channel hardware unboxed took a detailed look at

00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:15.920
NVIDIA's deep learning super sampling or dlss and found that it's

00:04:14.799 --> 00:04:20.000
not that different from existing super

00:04:18.239 --> 00:04:24.080
sampling technologies as long as you give them some tweaks dlss is along with

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:28.479
rtx one of the main selling points of NVIDIA's new rtx line of gpus but

00:04:26.400 --> 00:04:32.960
hardware unboxed is saying it's not really a selling point at all in fact

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:37.280
they might be saying that NVIDIA's not even a real company wow

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:41.040
that's a heavy allegation hardware unboxed but i'm with you the open beta

00:04:39.440 --> 00:04:44.560
for ubisoft's looter shooter the division 2 kicks off today even though

00:04:42.880 --> 00:04:47.759
anthem just came out a week ago and it was supposed to be so good and it turns

00:04:45.919 --> 00:04:50.320
out that it's not and that's really dumb so i guess you can play the division 2

00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:54.720
now just go just go

00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:59.600
the celebrity universal forensic extraction device or ufed is a tool used

00:04:57.440 --> 00:05:04.160
by u.s law enforcement to hack into suspects iphones so as you can imagine

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:08.000
it's pretty dangerous so it's not the best news that it's showing up on ebay

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:12.000
for a hundred bucks a pop now these are reportedly old models since celebrite

00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:15.680
launched a new version so while they can only hack into older models of phones it

00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:20.400
still begs the question of how these devices got onto the market in the first

00:05:17.919 --> 00:05:20.400
place

00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:26.240
did you do this yes and this isn't really tech news but

00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:32.320
it is kind of cool researchers at the university of science and technology in

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:37.919
china have managed to give mice the ability to see near-infrared light that

00:05:35.520 --> 00:05:42.240
essentially gives them heat vision the only catch is they did it by injecting

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:46.080
specialized nanoparticles directly into the animal's eyes

00:05:44.479 --> 00:05:52.160
look i want to have laser eyes as much as the next guy but needles

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:57.360
it's not laser eyes it's heat vision all right i'm tired of talking in this quiet

00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:02.240
voice i want to be myself lioness stop live streaming for the for good

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:04.560
goodness sake ah

00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:07.840
see you guys later
