1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,480
wow cyber monday we made it so

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:10,160
are we inside the computer now are you a tron

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:15,360
what do you think cyber monday is wow cyber stuff t-mobile says they've

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:20,160
officially launched america's first nationwide 5g network quote unquote

5
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:28,720
covering more than 1 million square miles and more than 200 million people

6
00:00:25,439 --> 00:00:31,840
but wait a second the u.s has about 330

7
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:33,600
million people and 3.53 million square

8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:38,559
miles i'm not an electromagnetic

9
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,640
spectromologist but that doesn't seem like a nationwide network to me james

10
00:00:40,879 --> 00:00:46,640
unless t-mobile means that only people who can afford 5g phones and who live in

11
00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:51,760
an area with coverage qualify as members of the nation that doesn't seem like a

12
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:55,600
nation at all it seems like an exclusive club just like the one i wasn't allowed

13
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:59,840
into on friday because of my insistence on bringing james dog with me who's

14
00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:05,439
james dog it's a really cool guy now t-mobile's 4g

15
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:09,840
network covers 325 million people and it seems like the uncarrier is definitely

16
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,439
banking on that to fill out the gaps if you have a 5g phone you'll still have to

17
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:17,280
wait until friday to use its particular capabilities and even then you probably

18
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:23,280
won't see more than a 20 increase in speed as current 5g uses the same 600

19
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:27,439
megahertz spectrum as 4g that is if you're part of the nation that's

20
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:32,720
supposedly getting this nationwide coverage i mean i'm not even getting any

21
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,600
service in vancouver corporate fat cats

22
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:38,799
ah we're in canada oh

23
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:44,560
corporate fat beavers apple has now fully ingested or acquired

24
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:48,880
the smartphone modem department of Intel after announcing the meal i mean deal

25
00:01:47,119 --> 00:01:53,680
back in july stupid the one billion deal leaves Intel

26
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:57,920
still able to work on 5g modems for non-smartphone devices like pcs and

27
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:02,880
vehicle systems the deal was born out of an interesting situation apple started

28
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:07,360
buying Intel modems in 2016 after its patent lawsuit with qualcomm got intense

29
00:02:05,759 --> 00:02:11,760
meanwhile Intel was complaining about qualcomm's anti-competitive practices

30
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:15,760
including being a real hard ass about patent fees and supposed copyright

31
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,400
infringement which left team blue's mobile modem business dead in the water

32
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:24,319
however apple reached a 4.5 billion settlement with qualcomm in may so until

33
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:28,400
cupertino can develop an in-house modem with their new acquisition they'll

34
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:32,400
reportedly use qualcomm modems in future iphones and Intel has been left a little

35
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:36,959
salty about the whole ordeal supporting the ftc's investigation of qualcomm for

36
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:40,160
anti-competitive behavior even after their modem business was sold

37
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:45,680
man it is just not Intel's year i'm starting

38
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:49,360
to feel bad for for old bob swan and a fresh leak of the playstation 5 dev kit

39
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:56,160
has kicked off some discussion about the upcoming next-gen console war turns out

40
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,599
that wacky v-shaped design is real

41
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:02,239
and while the console will almost certainly look less early 2000s when it

42
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:06,560
launches next christmas people seem to be experiencing a bit of a

43
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:10,959
cyber truck moment with it like after your initial gag reflex hits

44
00:03:08,959 --> 00:03:13,680
you start to realize well

45
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:16,959
you're right i love it the cooling system being on top could

46
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:22,000
work great even with the console sitting on a carpet or something the leaked picks led to some

47
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:26,480
commentators asking about the xbox project scarlet dev kit which is

48
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:31,040
reportedly not quite finished and in the hands of very few developers jason

49
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:35,360
schreier suggested that microsoft is trying to surprise sony this time

50
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:41,760
by not having the dev kit ready regardless

51
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:44,560
head of xbox game studio's matt booty

52
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:48,959
that is his real name told gamesradar that scarlett aims to be backwards

53
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:53,920
compatible with every xbox game which would be awesome it's probably just a

54
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:58,560
regular box without a cool v-shape though it's shaped like an x

55
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:02,640

ah quick bits if i had a nickel

66
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:47,280
every time five bucks yep

67
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:50,479
the european space agency has approved the budget for their half of the

68
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:56,160
asteroid impact and deflection assessment or ida mission ida is a joint

69
00:04:53,600 --> 00:05:02,400
mission set for 2027 in which nasa's dart probe would smash into the dual

70
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,320
asteroid system didymos didymus

71
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,800
creating an impact crater and a change in trajectory that would be analyzed by

72
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:13,039
the esa's hera that's a spacecraft it's a greek goddess

73
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,720
and that too and no this isn't the result of some astrophysicists getting

74
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:20,880
drunk and wanting to smash into stuff the point is to learn whether we could

75
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:25,840
prevent a deadly asteroid impact because the dinosaurs couldn't

76
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,840
even with all their technology

77
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:34,880
facebook has rolled out a new tool in ireland that will allow users to easily

78
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:41,919
transfer all of their facebook pictures to google photos why would they want to

79
00:05:37,759 --> 00:05:41,919
do that i'm getting off the platform

80
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,600
how are you doing you'll never have me lucky picks

81
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:53,120
see you later well for one they want to do it to appease critics who accuse them of

82
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:57,759
having a social media monopoly plus if google has your photos too facebook can

83
00:05:55,280 --> 00:06:01,280
point at them and say no see they're do they're doing it they're doing data

84
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:05,520
collection too it just might confuse europe enough to work sources inside

85
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:10,880
tiktok say the social video company has suppressed the distribution of posts by

86
00:06:07,840 --> 00:06:12,560
users with disabilities videos by such

87
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:16,080
users were made to only appear in their country of origin or taken out of

88
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:20,319
circulation once they had a certain view count the move was ostensibly designed

89
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:25,199
to prevent these users from facing bullying or discrimination by

90
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:30,160
discriminating against them these antibodies let me get bullied by foreign

91
00:06:27,919 --> 00:06:34,800
powers yeah the logic there is a little i only want to be bullied by locals

92
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:38,400
right then it's fine these anti-bullying policies have now been discontinued but

93
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:43,199
for me the damage is done i'm never tick-tocking again amazon has

94
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:47,360
joined microsoft and google in launching a quantum computing service even though

95
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:52,160
quantum computers are basically still in the research phase amazon is also

96
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,840
launching amazon transcribe medical an ai power transcription service that will

97
00:06:54,240 --> 00:07:00,560
help doctors keep track of details during conversations with patients like

98
00:06:57,919 --> 00:07:05,280
dosage amounts and symptoms wow neither of those things seem ready

99
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:09,680
for prime time prime oh like amazon i didn't even get that

100
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:15,039
you did it and a new update for super mario maker includes a master sword

101
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:17,120
power-up that turns mario into link

102
00:07:15,039 --> 00:07:22,240
through some sort of dark sorcery link can block attacks with a shield and

103
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:26,560
attack with a sword arrows and bombs this is cool but guys link is not part

104
00:07:24,639 --> 00:07:30,720
of the mario universe i was willing to forgive his inclusion in mario kart but

105
00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:34,560
how much further can we go before every mario game is just super smash bros all

106
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:40,000
right well i guess that's it for this episode come back on monday for more
