1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,919
ah yes yes it's there of james

2
00:00:07,919 --> 00:00:14,480
NVIDIA just released their 20 series touring graphics cards and it may be

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:18,240
time for AMD to answer a number of sources have pointed out the likelihood

4
00:00:16,240 --> 00:00:24,640
of team red launching 12 nanometer refreshes of their polaris gpus in

5
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:27,279
october Linux fan site forunix phoronix

6
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:31,599
i don't know spotted a new pci id in the latest kernel that's not listed anywhere

7
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:36,640
else and is part of the polaris family meanwhile chinese language site chip

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:40,640
hell chappelle i don't know is also talking about a new launch of radiant

9
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:46,320
cars next month since team green has only announced the rtx 2070 2080 and

10
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:48,079
2080 ti it might be a good time for AMD

11
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:53,440
to launch cards that would fill in the lower end gaps currently in NVIDIA's

12
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:55,120
lineup provided they're any good AMD

13
00:00:53,440 --> 00:01:00,399
doesn't exactly have a stellar track record with their refresh launches but

14
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:02,879
they keep doing anyways so uh

15
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:07,200
such determination much perseverance inspiring i think we can all learn

16
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,400
something from that wow oculus held their oculus connect

17
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:16,799
conference today and actually announced something moderately exciting the 400 oculus quest

18
00:01:14,479 --> 00:01:22,240
is the company's new wireless standalone vr headset meaning it doesn't require a

19
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:25,920
smartphone or a pc to work it's got two of the same controllers used in the

20
00:01:23,759 --> 00:01:30,560
desktop tethered rift headset and built-in sensors so no external tracking

21
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,400
hardware is even required now the rift will still be the company's gold

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:39,119
standard vr experience but the quest is reportedly a big step up in quality from

23
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:44,159
the lower powered oculus go standalone device at the conference oculus also

24
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:47,680
announced new more realistic vr avatars hybrid professional apps that allow you

25
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:53,119
to work on a desktop and then switch to vr mode the addition of youtube vr to

26
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:55,600
oculus and the manifold a 360 degree

27
00:01:53,119 --> 00:01:59,680
camera built by red in partnership with facebook that's a lot of companies it's

28
00:01:57,439 --> 00:02:04,079
all very fancy but it still appears that the highest end wireless vr setup you

29
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:08,560
can get is an htc vive with a wireless adapter so i guess real life ready

30
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:13,360
player one will still have to wait it's a shame but the book is really good is

31
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:16,560
it actually not if you ask tyler you're reading it he's got problems i

32
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:21,520
like it but i'm on page 70. what do i know i heard it was bad you're bad

33
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,520
that's why i'm here

34
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:27,680
and a bunch of news about spotify has popped up this week perhaps the most

35
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,040
interesting tidbit is the fact that artists will now be able to upload their

36
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,879
music directly to the service bypassing

37
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:39,840
labels and distributors whoa doing so will be free and artists

38
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:44,160
will even get 100 of the royalties from playback make it rain baby make it rain

39
00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:47,599
that kind of that looked weird it's unclear whether that'll be the case in

40
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,519
the future but for now that's a heck of a deal for music producers especially if

41
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:56,000
they already have an audience of their own and don't need labels to help them

42
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:59,519
market new releases what was the other news about spotify

43
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:03,680
well you can link your ancestry account to spotify so they'll create a playlist

44
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:07,360
based on your ancestral history which is that's dope i always wanted to

45
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:11,440
know what my great great great grandmother's favorite song was

46
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:16,840
it's probably a hymn yeah if they even had songs yeah

47
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,480
back then oh black and white music

48
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:22,239

on to the quick bits on monday we reported that chrome had added mandatory

58
00:03:54,640 --> 00:04:00,879
sign-in to the browser that sucked but google heard the backlash and has now

59
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:05,680
made signing into the browser optional hooray automatic sign-in will still be

60
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:10,560
on by default but you can switch it off in the settings not a perfect solution

61
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,480
but acceptable just like my hosting

62
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:16,560
and NVIDIA didn't announce when their rtx

63
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:21,440
2070 would launch when they unveiled the card up until now we didn't know when

64
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:26,479
NVIDIA's rtx 2070 would launch but now we know they have unveiled that the card

65
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:30,400
will be available october 17th which is also the same day that marijuana is

66
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:35,199
legalized across canada right on

67
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,199
ray tracing

68
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:41,919
the card will launch starting at 499 or

69
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:46,240
599 for the founders edition and if you can stand living without ray tracing

70
00:04:44,479 --> 00:04:50,800
and that's tough you might almost certainly be better off looking for a

71
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:55,840
discounted 1080 ti but what do i know i'm just discount riley oh hey

72
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,360
they called me discount luke before on the WAN Show be nice to yourself yeah

73
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:05,440
it's okay oh hey it's gonna be okay

74
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:11,199
sony has finally caved to pressure from fans to allow cross-platform play

75
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:13,360
between the ps4 and other consoles maybe

76
00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:18,000
sweet an open beta for fortnite has started allowing cross-platform gameplay

77
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:23,280
progression and commerce across the ps4 xbox one nintendo switch Windows 10 mac

78
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:28,160
and Android and iOS console players wanted to get pwned by

79
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,600
pc players that badly huh well don't worry because the laser train has no

80
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:36,960
brailing what is that your trick is that you yes

81
00:05:33,759 --> 00:05:39,680
you're the you're the train a laser wow

82
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:44,560
it's a beam oh you can get on but you can't get off

83
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:48,400
speaking of consoles xbox is working with razer to implement keyboard and

84
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:52,160
mouse support in the coming weeks with racer also releasing new peripherals to

85
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:56,639
celebrate the news i guess this potentially invalidates

86
00:05:53,919 --> 00:06:02,000
the last joke i made but uh we'll see what are you gonna do and

87
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:03,600
images of the lg v40 thin q or think as

88
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,479
the reasonable people pronounce it have leaked confirming that the phone does

89
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:12,400
indeed have five cameras three on the back and two on the front the phone is

90
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:16,319
expected to launch october third which is about a week before the google pixel

91
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:19,759
announcement made by google hardware event so

92
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:23,919
get wrecked google with a photo taking ability beyond anything humans have ever

93
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,800
seen that's what more cameras means right if

94
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:32,240
you have more cameras yeah that's better photos

95
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:35,440
yeah usually more photos you get five photos if you press the

96
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:40,639
button does that work it's five times better photos oh five times better

97
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,639
photos yeah automatically

98
