WEBVTT

00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:08.559
that's right it's time for another tech link because tech news doesn't take

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:10.160
holidays it gives them what never say

00:00:08.559 --> 00:00:14.960
never when it comes to gaming related meme gadgets first there was the razer

00:00:12.559 --> 00:00:18.880
toaster and now we're getting a kfc console or kf console as they're calling

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:22.720
it they apparently can actually play games

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:26.560
that's right it's shaped like the colonel's famous chicken bucket bucket

00:00:25.439 --> 00:00:31.599
bucket you know what bug it forget it i'm not doing this today it's shaped like the

00:00:29.840 --> 00:00:36.559
colonel's famous chicken bucket and combines an Intel nook with a cooler

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:41.520
master case and interestingly allows players to swap out their own graphics

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:46.079
card as long as it's not edible the other specs look pretty good too

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:53.120
including two terabytes of NVMe storage gameplay up to 4k and 240hz and yes of

00:00:50.559 --> 00:00:57.280
course the all-important chicken chamber for keeping your greasy treats warm

00:00:55.120 --> 00:01:02.320
while you game personally i can't imagine slurping down fried meat is

00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:04.799
going to help your csgo performance but uh

00:01:03.199 --> 00:01:08.960
hey you do you no word on pricing or availability but

00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:13.040
hopefully it comes dusted with 11 herbs and spices

00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:18.560
the fbi and europol recently shut down a vpn called safe inet

00:01:16.320 --> 00:01:23.280
which the us justice department has said became notorious for being used by folks

00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:29.119
dealing in ransomware skimmed cards and other such shady doings now although any

00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:32.640
vpn could be used for illicit purposes i mean anything could really like

00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:39.280
that's right safeinet seems to have been targeted for

00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:43.040
refusing to cooperate with victims and with law enforcement and was

00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:46.320
disproportionately popular with cyber criminals

00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:51.040
of course the concern is that it might not end up taking a whole lot for the

00:01:48.399 --> 00:01:55.280
government to go after other more legitimate vpns that are mostly being

00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:59.520
used for aboveboard reasons you know like watching french netflix or whatever

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:03.200
it's so much better it looks like we're going to be getting a new model of

00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:07.840
samsung galaxy sooner rather than later the galaxy s21 is reportedly due out

00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:12.319
next month and samsung has started taking pre-orders already they don't

00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:16.959
refer to the s21 specifically by name but they are advertising the next galaxy

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:21.520
on their website as well as offering credits for old phones now you don't

00:02:18.959 --> 00:02:26.239
have to buy a galaxy if you sign up i mean galaxies are expensive and big

00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:30.480
where will you store them because all the pre-order system does is

00:02:28.160 --> 00:02:35.599
guarantee you a chance to buy wait a minute really yeah i guess kind of like

00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:37.920
the evga queue for rtx 3080s but

00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:41.680
hopefully much less frustrating uh we should know more in a couple of weeks

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:45.760
since existing rumors have stated that we'll be getting an official unveiling

00:02:43.519 --> 00:02:52.080
on the 14th of january which is the end of ces that sounds like a

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:54.400
galaxy brain move to me

00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:58.720
now it's time for accelerated extracts brought to you by brilliant the website

00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:02.959
and app that makes learning accessible and fun instead of making you memorize

00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:07.440
facts brilliant approach is based on problem solving and active learning so

00:03:05.200 --> 00:03:11.840
you'll encounter concepts visually with courses laid out like bite size pieces

00:03:09.760 --> 00:03:16.800
of a story that you can interact with there's no tests no grades and therefore

00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:19.920
no stress just pick a course you're into and get started whether you want to

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:24.159
learn programming brush up on your algebra or dive into the science of

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:27.519
neural networks brilliant's got you covered and the first 200 people who go

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:32.000
to brilliant.org techlinked will get 20 off their annual

00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:36.799
premium subscription so click the link below and get smart

00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:43.760
accelerated extracts they small but they thick cd project red said that cyberpunk

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.159
2077 has already sold 13 million copies

00:03:43.760 --> 00:03:50.879
what a lucky number and that's after you take into account all of the refunds of

00:03:48.720 --> 00:03:54.959
course with all the bad publicity and thanks to the game's bugs and poor

00:03:52.720 --> 00:04:00.080
performance the company's stock is still a lot lower than it was even with the

00:03:57.519 --> 00:04:04.080
positive sales news so hopefully they won't continue to find themselves in the

00:04:02.480 --> 00:04:08.480
red later on fusion power still seems like a

00:04:06.720 --> 00:04:13.280
pipe dream to many but one group of researchers in south korea found a way

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:17.359
to sustain a reaction for 20 seconds which is far more than the previous

00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:22.560
record plasma inside the reactor now it's a big deal plasma inside the

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:24.960
reactor got to 180 million degrees

00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:29.840
fahrenheit or roughly as hot as an old amdfx CPU under load hahaha got him all

00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:33.759
joking aside though it's an important breakthrough if we ever want to have

00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:38.000
fusion energy powering up our gadgets without asking doc ock and if you've

00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:42.800
been having problems getting your hands on a new AMD zen 3 processor you might

00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:47.759
have an alternative very soon as Intel is reportedly shipping its new rocket

00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:52.320
lake cpus sometime between late january and late february the new 500 series

00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:57.199
motherboards that go with them are expected to be announced next month at

00:04:54.320 --> 00:05:01.440
ces as well so hey maybe Intel will find a way to rock it back to relevance

00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:07.360
the script says enough puns but it's not enough puns

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:11.520
carbon dioxide emissions are one of the key factors driving global climate

00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:17.360
change concerns but what if there was a way to take co2 and turn it back into

00:05:14.479 --> 00:05:20.960
fuel well scientists at oxford think they have a way and it turns out it

00:05:19.280 --> 00:05:26.320
might not even be expensive or complicated although we need to capture lots of co2

00:05:24.479 --> 00:05:30.479
in order to do this in a meaningful way the scientists have been talking to

00:05:28.080 --> 00:05:35.680
potential industry partners so maybe one day you'll be able to just like exhale

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:39.840
into the bottom of your phone to power it

00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:42.080
up and nintendo has claimed victory in

00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:47.280
court over a company that did mario kart style go-kart tours of tokyo the legal

00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:51.440
dispute originated when nintendo found out that the company was letting people

00:05:48.880 --> 00:05:55.680
dress up as mario characters which raised intellectual property concerns

00:05:53.520 --> 00:06:03.199
especially after several customers got into accidents nintendo is owed over 480

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:05.199
000 us dollars which is

00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:09.919
what is that in you know you know like coins right

00:06:07.919 --> 00:06:14.479
and that's it for today folks come back wednesday for more tech news and keep on

00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:19.160
dodging those blue shells you gotta wait you can't dodge a blue shell that's the

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:19.160
whole idea
