WEBVTT 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:07.919 ah yes yes it's there of james 00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:14.480 NVIDIA just released their 20 series touring graphics cards and it may be 00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:18.240 time for AMD to answer a number of sources have pointed out the likelihood 00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:24.640 of team red launching 12 nanometer refreshes of their polaris gpus in 00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:27.279 october Linux fan site forunix phoronix 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 00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:36.640 else and is part of the polaris family meanwhile chinese language site chip 00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:40.640 hell chappelle i don't know is also talking about a new launch of radiant 00:00:38.160 --> 00:00:46.320 cars next month since team green has only announced the rtx 2070 2080 and 00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:48.079 2080 ti it might be a good time for AMD 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:53.440 to launch cards that would fill in the lower end gaps currently in NVIDIA's 00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:55.120 lineup provided they're any good AMD 00:00:53.440 --> 00:01:00.399 doesn't exactly have a stellar track record with their refresh launches but 00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:02.879 they keep doing anyways so uh 00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:07.200 such determination much perseverance inspiring i think we can all learn 00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:10.400 something from that wow oculus held their oculus connect 00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:16.799 conference today and actually announced something moderately exciting the 400 oculus quest 00:01:14.479 --> 00:01:22.240 is the company's new wireless standalone vr headset meaning it doesn't require a 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 00:01:23.759 --> 00:01:30.560 desktop tethered rift headset and built-in sensors so no external tracking 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:34.400 hardware is even required now the rift will still be the company's gold 00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:39.119 standard vr experience but the quest is reportedly a big step up in quality from 00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:44.159 the lower powered oculus go standalone device at the conference oculus also 00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:47.680 announced new more realistic vr avatars hybrid professional apps that allow you 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 00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:55.600 oculus and the manifold a 360 degree 00:01:53.119 --> 00:01:59.680 camera built by red in partnership with facebook that's a lot of companies it's 00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:04.079 all very fancy but it still appears that the highest end wireless vr setup you 00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:08.560 can get is an htc vive with a wireless adapter so i guess real life ready 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 00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:16.560 it actually not if you ask tyler you're reading it he's got problems i 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 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:21.520 that's why i'm here 00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:27.680 and a bunch of news about spotify has popped up this week perhaps the most 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:33.040 interesting tidbit is the fact that artists will now be able to upload their 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.879 music directly to the service bypassing 00:02:33.040 --> 00:02:39.840 labels and distributors whoa doing so will be free and artists 00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:44.160 will even get 100 of the royalties from playback make it rain baby make it rain 00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:47.599 that kind of that looked weird it's unclear whether that'll be the case in 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 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:56.000 they already have an audience of their own and don't need labels to help them 00:02:53.440 --> 00:02:59.519 market new releases what was the other news about spotify 00:02:57.760 --> 00:03:03.680 well you can link your ancestry account to spotify so they'll create a playlist 00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:07.360 based on your ancestral history which is that's dope i always wanted to 00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:11.440 know what my great great great grandmother's favorite song was 00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:16.840 it's probably a hymn yeah if they even had songs yeah 00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:18.480 back then oh black and white music 00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:22.239 sucks and now it's time for quick [ __ ] 00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:28.000 brought to you by t-force they're giving away 16 Gigabyte kits of the new 00:03:24.480 -->

00:03:56.959 on to the quick bits on monday we reported that chrome had added mandatory 00:03:54.640 --> 00:04:00.879 sign-in to the browser that sucked but google heard the backlash and has now 00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:05.680 made signing into the browser optional hooray automatic sign-in will still be 00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:10.560 on by default but you can switch it off in the settings not a perfect solution 00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:12.480 but acceptable just like my hosting 00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:16.560 and NVIDIA didn't announce when their rtx 00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:21.440 2070 would launch when they unveiled the card up until now we didn't know when 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:26.479 NVIDIA's rtx 2070 would launch but now we know they have unveiled that the card 00:04:23.520 --> 00:04:30.400 will be available october 17th which is also the same day that marijuana is 00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:35.199 legalized across canada right on 00:04:32.400 --> 00:04:35.199 ray tracing 00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:41.919 the card will launch starting at 499 or 00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:46.240 599 for the founders edition and if you can stand living without ray tracing 00:04:44.479 --> 00:04:50.800 and that's tough you might almost certainly be better off looking for a 00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:55.840 discounted 1080 ti but what do i know i'm just discount riley oh hey 00:04:54.560 -->
