1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:05,920
oh hey guys just here at the mall to pick up some tech news

2
00:00:04,319 --> 00:00:11,120
what that's where i get it from the global chip shortage has affected

3
00:00:07,919 --> 00:00:12,240
all kinds of sectors that use technology

4
00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:16,720
that being all of them but the automotive industry

5
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:20,320
has had enough ford and general motors have announced partnerships with various

6
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:26,400
chip makers including global foundries tsmc nxp semiconductors and qualcomm

7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:31,599
which the company say opens the door to joint r d and manufacturing that could

8
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:37,120
ease the burden of titan supply lines and increase the supply of cars with

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:39,440
more advanced features okay cool so

10
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:43,040
how exactly will they do this um

11
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:46,320
yeah they uh they don't know the announcements didn't mention any

12
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:50,160
specific actions any of the companies will take to achieve their goals but

13
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:56,000
look you gotta start somewhere step one is saying we're gonna fix the supply

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,000
shortage step two is

15
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:01,359
i'm an ideas man nfts are a polarizing

16
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:06,720
subject right now but thankfully someone made a place where everyone is welcome

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:09,280
to download all the nfts you heard that

18
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:13,520
right every image linked to an nft on the ethereum and solana blockchains is

19
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:19,360
currently downloadable as part of a 20 terabyte torrent file hosted on the

20
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:22,400
nftbay.org okay because it's like the pirate bank

21
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:27,040
the site was put up by an australian developer named jeff huntley as a way to

22
00:01:25,119 --> 00:01:32,320
hopefully comment on and educate the public about the nature of nfts as you

23
00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:36,960
may know nfts aren't an image they're a token that may be linked to an image

24
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:40,400
hosted on a server somewhere and now also hosted in a 20 terabyte torrent

25
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:45,680
file so you can max out your internet connection to own the crypto bros whatever you think

26
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,759
about them it looks like nft's normalization cannot be stopped with the

27
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:56,320
latest innovation being virtual commemorative tickets nfts given to nfl

28
00:01:53,360 --> 00:02:00,479
fans you can give it to your kids say i was there and this proves it

29
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:04,880
the twist is that your kids are nfts too in this example

30
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:08,959
that's the future and facebook is backtracking a bit with a new test that

31
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:13,040
will give a subset of users control once again of what they see in their news

32
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:16,800
feed users in the test group will be able to turn up or turn down the amount

33
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:21,040
of content they see from specific friends groups and pages on their

34
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:24,879
personal facebook home page the move is likely a response to general criticism

35
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:29,520
of the way facebook and instagram's algorithms just

36
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:33,120
make society worse but meta is also probably trying to get ahead of proposed

37
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:37,920
legislation that would force social media companies to give users the option

38
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:41,360
for an algorithm-free feed that's a trend we're seeing across multiple

39
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:45,200
companies apple's new self-repair service is undoubtedly a response to

40
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:49,360
activist shareholders and pressure from the ftc and twitter recently dropped

41
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:53,519
support for google's amp system for news article links which has also come under

42
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:57,280
scrutiny recently could it be that the internet might be getting

43
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:03,599
better now it's time for quick bits brought to you by samsung who is reopening two of

recently told axios that he hopes to see the gaming industry as a whole embrace

59
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:08,640
legal emulation a concept that i think

60
00:04:06,959 --> 00:04:13,280
would give nintendo executives a collective aneurysm xbox has certainly

61
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:16,799
been talking the talk here between backwards compatibility and game

62
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,440

good enough for me nah he did make elder scrolls 6 and xbox

67
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:42,160
exclusive though i'll allow it media tech has long been

68
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:46,479
the lesser cousin to qualcomm in the world of ARM processor manufacturers but

69
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:51,280
the company's latest chip the demensity 9000 could give snapdragons a run for

70
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:56,400
their money it's the first chip built with both ARM's new v9 architecture and

71
00:04:53,840 --> 00:05:01,680
tsmc's four nanometer process so this thing may just be the new mobile chip

72
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:05,919
king at least until november 30th when qualcomm has an event scheduled

73
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:09,360
you get to sit on the throne for a little while though at least and that's

74
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,120
fun apple's long-rumored autonomous car has

75
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:18,000
gotten some fresh rumors to keep the mill going courtesy of mark german he

76
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:24,240
says the car code named project titan is expected to launch in 2025 with a custom

77
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:26,720
apple chip and no steering wheel or even

78
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:29,759
pedals why would you need that anyways when

79
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,840
apple knows how to drive your car the best it's just like the iphone side

80
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:39,199
loading everything worth downloading is in the app store apple knows best but no

81
00:05:37,039 --> 00:05:42,560
no no no no sleep now

82
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:47,840

83
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,759
which is bafflingly not named warner

84
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:54,639
smash bros big mistake you can put dc heroes like

85

superman against shaggy from scooby-doo and arya stark from game of thrones

is this how weird the first smash bros felt when it came out does everyone in

87
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:08,560
the game have kryptonite or something what is the lore here and a teen in

88
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:14,319
hamilton ontario was just arrested for stealing 36 million us dollars or 46

89
00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:18,319
million canadian in cryptocurrency last year using a sim swapping technique to

90
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:22,160
hijack someone's two-factor authentication police were able to

91
00:06:20,319 --> 00:06:27,919
locate the team because they used the money to purchase a rare online username

92
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:33,360
which is what anybody would use millions of dollars

93
00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:37,440
