WEBVTT

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:09.920
hey good to see you i was just i was just scuba diving over there looking for

00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:15.040
tech news and yeah i'm really glad that i'm up here

00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:16.560
now because it it is gross over there

00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:22.000
a year and a half after being banned from the iOS app store fortnite is

00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:22.960
finally coming back to the iphone

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:27.760
sort of see relations between apple and epic

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:33.120
games are still as hostile as ever so epic has made a deal with NVIDIA to

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:38.800
stream the mobile version of fortnite through GeForce now which is possible

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:43.520
using a web app in the iOS safari browser so it's less that the game is

00:00:41.360 --> 00:00:48.320
back on the iphone and more like it's kind of squeezed itself in through the

00:00:46.239 --> 00:00:53.199
doggy door but you think that matters to the poor iphone gamers who've been stuck

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:55.039
in a depressive spiral since august 2020

00:00:53.199 --> 00:00:58.399
although there are probably some other factors at play here too

00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:03.359
although the game has remained accessible on non-iphones as a direct

00:01:00.800 --> 00:01:07.200
download this whole time Android users will also be able to stream the game

00:01:05.199 --> 00:01:12.799
through the GeForce now app if they sign up for the closed beta iOS users though

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:17.680
it's safari classic streamlined apple simplicity it just works play the game

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:20.960
by streaming it on a website through a web browser instead of using a clunky

00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:25.200
old app revolutionary i love it

00:01:22.960 --> 00:01:29.600
in other NVIDIA news the company's cfo colette cress has told multiple outlets

00:01:27.600 --> 00:01:36.479
that team green expects the GPU shortage to get better in the second half of 2022

00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:38.159
is it because they saw it in their orb

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:41.920
or is it because there are competitors coming that are actually going to like

00:01:39.759 --> 00:01:44.960
manufacture mainstream cards i don't know

00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:48.960
while press has claimed that NVIDIA expects a better supply situation for

00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:53.840
their own gpus should be taken with a grain of salt as everything should be

00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:58.479
when it's in vague corporates some chinese media outlets have reported

00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:02.240
larger numbers of rtx 3050 cards being distributed to board partners

00:02:00.320 --> 00:02:07.360
it also makes sense to remain skeptical that the shortage will ever end as long

00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:11.599
as crypto mining is a thing um i don't know what the asteroid line is about but

00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:16.000
good job riley battle and crypto mining and russia has done the world solid

00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:21.760
claiming to have neutralized notorious ransomware gang re-evil

00:02:18.640 --> 00:02:23.760
the fsb said it arrested 14 members of

00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:28.080
the group which were responsible for among other things hacking the world's

00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:32.239
largest meat supplier and software infrastructure company caseya last year

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:34.720
those are two separate companies not the same company that is in meat and

00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:37.840
software luckily nothing ended up happening to

00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:43.760
the meat unfortunately the same day that russia announced the arrests the company was

00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:47.840
accused of orchestrating a massive cyber attack that took down multiple ukrainian

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:52.720
government websites where the hackers left anti-ukraine messages this attack

00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:56.640
comes in the midst of other accusations that russia is preparing a real invasion

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.519
of ukraine which would definitely offset any positive solids

00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:04.560
that russia did by arresting the ransomware gang you know

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:10.560
you know i'm just gonna have to take that back russia you're back to square

00:03:06.640 --> 00:03:10.560
one with me maybe even in the negatives

00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.519
now it's time for quick bits brought to you by brilliant the easy way to learn

00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:18.480
new things as part of your new year's resolution what do you mean you already

00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.760
forgot about that see brilliance already helping your

00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:25.760
brain brilliant makes learning stem concepts

00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:29.760
with dense sounding names like algorithm fundamentals and scientific thinking

00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:33.599
accessible and fun because it uses active learning with engaging problems

00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:37.599
to solve and interactive visual concepts to play with there's no harsh grading

00:03:35.760 --> 00:03:42.239
long lectures or strict time limits because this isn't miss parsons grade

00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:45.840

00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:58.640
slash TechLinked get smart buck quacks are best when they're fresh

00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:02.640
out of the oven not too crispy you got to let them cool a little yeah i burned

00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:06.400
one too many times the log 4j vulnerability discovered about a month

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:10.959
ago was so bad and widespread that the white house held a meeting yesterday a

00:04:08.480 --> 00:04:15.439
month after to talk about how open source software needs better security

00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:18.799
well google seems to think it's the government's job to do something about

00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:23.120
it since many federal infrastructure systems rely on open source projects

00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:28.320
that are often maintained on a volunteer basis so going forward all open source

00:04:26.320 --> 00:04:32.639
developers will be officially employees of the us federal government yeah

00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:36.400
problem solved right oh easy a few days after AMD said they're looking into

00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:42.240
adding support for ryzen 5000 series cpus on older x370 motherboards asrock

00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:48.400
has come out and done just that exact thing a BIOS update for the company's

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.160
x370 pro 4 adds ryzen 5000 support

00:04:48.400 --> 00:04:55.280
although it does remove support for AMD's bristol ridge apus because you

00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:59.759
can't have it all i mean what's next you want to plug an SSD into your CPU socket

00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:03.759
get over yourself i've already done it a couple of high-profile tech products are

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:07.759
getting kicked like cans down the road a little bit as a couple of reports

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:14.400
indicate that both apple's ar headset and tesla cyber truck has been delayed

00:05:09.840 --> 00:05:16.400
to 2023 not the cyber truck

00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:20.960
this is frankly completely unsurprising given that there is very little evidence

00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:24.560
that either of those are actually real i mean the cyber trucks Windows appeared

00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:27.520
to be real during that demo where they shattered but the rest of the truck

00:05:26.080 --> 00:05:29.759
could have been cardboard for all we know

00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:36.720
that's why the rest didn't shatter oh it's cardboard and they're on the moon

00:05:34.080 --> 00:05:41.280
and twitter founder and outspoken nft bro jack dorsey's new crypto focused

00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:45.039
company block has announced that they are building an

00:05:42.479 --> 00:05:48.560
open bitcoin mining system that

00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:52.880
decentralizes mining making it more distributed and efficient by apparently

00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:56.240
making it a lot easier for anyone anywhere to easily purchase a

00:05:55.199 --> 00:06:01.520
mining what does this have to do with anything

00:05:58.880 --> 00:06:05.120
i mean isn't this the main concern that people have with crypto the amount of

00:06:03.039 --> 00:06:08.720
people already mining we have to decentralize

00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:12.319
this it's all you give it to the people it's already decentralized that's the

00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:16.479
whole point they can fix it and this week microsoft shut down the original

00:06:14.479 --> 00:06:22.160
halo 3 servers that were used when the game first launched on xbox 360 way back

00:06:19.440 --> 00:06:26.160
in 2007 and people online are very sad about it because those servers represent

00:06:24.080 --> 00:06:31.759
precious memories like all those times you hurled joe mama jokes and hateful

00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:34.880
slurs at strangers through xbox live and

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:36.639
and squatting yeah and it's squatted

00:06:34.880 --> 00:06:40.639
over them because they hear it they hear it through the mic thankfully a gaming

00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:45.600
group was able to help one player fishy 956 get in one final halo 3 achievement

00:06:43.919 --> 00:06:50.400
before the server shut down for good which i guess made them feel nice probably i'd

00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:54.160
feel nice if you came back on monday for more tech news because it'll make wading

00:06:52.479 --> 00:06:56.960
through the detritus of the internet over there much more worthwhile there's

00:06:55.840 --> 00:07:03.840
got to be something we can do about that decentralize it decentralize it make it

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:03.840
easier for everyone to buy one
