guys guys guys tech news isn't something you feel it's something you read and
hear and you know feel microsoft is reportedly
planning to launch a dual screen surface tablet codenamed
centaurus centerus in the first half of 2020 forbes
reported the information after receiving it from a source inside the supply chain
the supply chain is all around you centaurus will reportedly feature two
nine inch screens with a four by three aspect ratio which they normally have
and we'll run Windows lite a slim down version of Windows 10 designed to
compete with chrome os it will also feature Intel's super slim 10 nanometer
lakefield soc and will be able to run Android apps as well as icloud
that all seemed a little out there but uh at least we know where the centaur
name came from because this is just a bunch of product concepts smashed
together like a human and a horse and not in a good way wait
what's the good way hope you had a good weekend because the
Linux community was busy getting jerked around over whether their games would be
ruined so first a spokesperson for the ubuntu distro posted an update on their
forums effectively saying new versions of ubuntu would not support 32-bit
applications since a ton of apps on Linux used 32-bit including Windows apps
that are run through compatibility layers like wine and steam proton the
community understandably got upset and a
developer at valve said steam would no longer support ubuntu going forward but
after seeing the backlash the ubuntu leadership changed their mind and
announced that they would support specific 32-bit programs following a
community-directed selection process i don't know whether to be mad that they
didn't think this through at first or mad that they flip flopped it's all very
confusing i am mad though are you ah you
use Linux mad and there's a new raspberry pi on
the scene and it's tastier than ever it still costs the same 35 as the pi 3 but
the new pi 4 features upgrades to almost every component and according to its
makers it can provide desktop performance comparable to an entry-level
x86 pc system wow the system runs a 1.5
gigahertz ARM cortex a72 CPU which delivers about three times more
performance than the pi 3 and video core 6 graphics which can drive two 4k
monitors booyah it's also got gigabit Ethernet up to four gigabytes of lp ddr4
memory and four usb ports two of which
are usb 3.0 it's apparently so capable
that most of the raspberry pi website is being run on a cluster of 18 raspberry
pi force although the server rack doesn't look particularly pretty that's
called a bush riley oh yeah it's a raspberry bush but hey things can look
horribly ugly and still be worth something you know riley's living proof oh he turned it
around oh i thought you could catch me it's time for quick bits brought to you

why not both the u.s ban on huawei is apparently so
strong that not even single phones can slip by
it pc mag tried to ship a huawei p30 from britain to their colleague in the
states but after identifying the contents of the package fedex returned
the phone saying that they could not deliver it because of a u.s government
issue with huawei and china government that's literally what it said on the
package nuance political commentary isn't fedex's strong suit but they got
the gist of it the u.s air force has unveiled a new prototype anti-drone
defense weapon called the tactical high power microwave operational responder or
thor that's not contrived at all it uses short bursts of microwave radiation to
disable drones from a distance and could even disable many at once the
countermeasure was developed in just 18 months to protect against attacks from a
swarm of enemy drones it would be cooler
if you could shoot out lightning at the drones instead but i i guess we can
settle for this it's okay i remember that whole scandal a couple years back
where volkswagen was spoofing emissions test results for its diesel cars well
daimler which owns mercedes-benz was just accused of the sane darn thing darn
it auto regulators germany just told the company they'd have to recall 42 000 of
their vehicles after illegal software was discovered that met with the
emissions control system look some cars are just gassier than others right it's
simple biology
just close the door what's not so simple is continuing this episode so we better
just end it all thanks for watching guys and i promise if you come back on
wednesday we'll have more tech news i swear
i love swearing no not on this show
it's for the kids you riley oh
