1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,160
the infamous 12 volt high power connector is no more and is being

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:10,860
replaced with something hopefully less flammable I'm Jacob this is techlinked

3
00:00:07,919 --> 00:00:14,099
and this is justice as the 16 pin connector has been responsible for so

4
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,300
many melts it should be working at a sandwich shop but according to Igor's

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:22,740
lab future GPU owners will not need to fear it as PCI Sig the organization

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:27,180
responsible for specifying the PCIe standard gave Igor an excerpt of a new

7
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:32,279
specification that will replace the 12 volt high power with a new connector

8
00:00:28,859 --> 00:00:34,140
called 12 volt 2x6 the new connector

9
00:00:32,279 --> 00:00:38,399
should be compatible with 12 volt high power headers since the specifications

10
00:00:35,940 --> 00:00:44,579
don't list any new header changes and the 12 volt 2x6 connectors will use the

11
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:46,739
same 12 power rails and 4 cents pins one

12
00:00:44,579 --> 00:00:51,000
of the major changes is that 12 volt 2x6's pins are set further back in the

13
00:00:48,899 --> 00:00:54,840
plug based on the radical idea that electricity should only flow from the

14
00:00:52,860 --> 00:00:59,940
cable if it is fully inserted into your GPU another interesting change is this

15
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:04,379
connector will support cards up to 675 Watts which is 75 Watts higher than the

16
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,619
original 16 pin connector and you know NVIDIA is frothing at the bit to make an

17
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:12,720
even larger graphics card to suck up even more Power brace yourselves the

18
00:01:10,380 --> 00:01:16,740
achanka lips is an eye Google has been accused of misleading advertisers about

19
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:20,880
their true view in-stream ads according to advertising research firm analytics

20
00:01:18,780 --> 00:01:24,180
you've probably seen trueview ads at some point they're the ones you can skip

21
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:28,140
after 5 seconds and that's important because advertisers are only supposed to

22
00:01:26,340 --> 00:01:31,560
be charged for trueview ads if a customer watches 30 seconds of the ad or

23
00:01:30,119 --> 00:01:36,360
the whole ad if it's shorter than that and the video must be playing audio the

24
00:01:34,140 --> 00:01:40,680
ads must also be in stream which means that they play before during or after

25
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,500
video content or whenever your mom needs a life in Candy Crush

26
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:48,540
assume that's how it works I haven't played Candy Crush in years however

27
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:51,299
adults found that 42 to 75 percent of

28
00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:55,259
trueview AD spend was allocated to ads that did not meet Google's claims

29
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:58,920
standards many advertisers analytics reached out to were surprised to learn

30
00:01:56,939 --> 00:02:03,600
their ads were allegedly muted and auto playing on Niche third-party websites or

31
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:08,459
and I quote foreign developed Android mobile gaming apps for toddlers you know

32
00:02:06,180 --> 00:02:13,500
toddlers famous for their vast Expendable income and ability to speak

33
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:15,660
good in a blog post Google's director of

34
00:02:13,500 --> 00:02:20,220
global video Solutions said the report made Extreme inaccurate claims and that

35
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:24,480
over ninety percent of ads on Google video partners are visible to people

36
00:02:22,020 --> 00:02:28,920
across the web which notably doesn't mean anyone saw them and analytics

37
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,879
actually points out that not once in the blog post was sound mentioned which is a

38
00:02:31,020 --> 00:02:37,800
big part of how many people experience ads and also the world and speaking of

39
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:43,260
Google there's been a strange succession of pixel leaks over the last week and

40
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:45,420
some of them make sense but others

41
00:02:43,260 --> 00:02:49,019
just today pictures of the pixelate pro were posted to Reddit and like a pair of

42
00:02:47,340 --> 00:02:52,680
tight jeans they leave little to the imagination the photos match older

43
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:58,440
leaked renders showing a flat screen which is nice for people like me who use

44
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:01,200
screen protectors why do you make curved

45
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:04,860
screens I hate it do you have you ever Mark have you ever used the screen

46
00:03:02,819 --> 00:03:09,239
protectors on a curved screen they're terrible they're awful they're just

47
00:03:06,540 --> 00:03:14,000
these these thin like plastic polymers they're like they tear and rip it's they

48
00:03:11,700 --> 00:03:18,420
do nothing it's even worse oh and according to a

49
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:23,760
leaker with an aggressively polished name

50
00:03:20,300 --> 00:03:25,980
camilaichikovska the I hope that's right

51
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:29,640
the 8 and 8 Pro will have larger batteries and support charging speeds

52
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:34,920
that are 4 Watts faster than last gen and the phones will also support the

53
00:03:32,099 --> 00:03:39,000
newer Wi-Fi 7 standard that's all great but what I don't fully understand is why

54
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:43,500
the pixel 8 series will support USB DisplayPort alternate mode according to

55
00:03:41,099 --> 00:03:47,700
a source inside Google Google could be taking pointers from the convergence

56
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:52,319
Ideo from a decade ago where phone manufacturers wanted them to become

57
00:03:49,379 --> 00:03:56,220
desktop computers now it'll be fantastic if they can make this work but based on

58
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,700
my experience with my pixel this summer I'm expecting a Chromebook that will

59
00:03:58,140 --> 00:04:03,720
shut itself off after being in direct sunlight for 10 minutes now it's time

60
00:04:01,980 --> 00:04:09,720
for quick bits brought to you by vesi it's summer and don't it feel good

61
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:11,700
hey all right now it can feel even

62
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:16,620
better when the mail carrier knocks on your door with a new pair of vessies

63
00:04:13,379 --> 00:04:18,780
you'll be walking on sunshine whoa in no

64
00:04:16,620 --> 00:04:22,919
time with their Boardwalk slip-on sneakers they are designed to let sweat

65
00:04:20,699 --> 00:04:27,300
and heat escape and be easy to put on and take off your feet will be sure to

66
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:30,560
love them and of course the boardwalks are made with the same Diamond attacks

67
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:34,080
technology the vessi claims is 100 waterproof check out the vessey

68
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:39,780
boardwalk and other styles at bestie.com check linked and use code techlinked for

69
00:04:36,780 --> 00:04:40,740
15 off your entire order what are quick

70
00:04:39,780 --> 00:04:45,540
bits they're an icon they're a moment

71
00:04:43,919 --> 00:04:47,880
there are five shorter stories that follow the three main stories of every

72
00:04:46,979 --> 00:04:52,199
episode there you go that's for you now you know

73
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:56,280
Google the company I was just talking about earlier has decided they want to

74
00:04:54,419 --> 00:05:00,900
use everyone's data to train their AIS and not just on their platforms any

75
00:04:58,860 --> 00:05:05,280
publicly accessible sources to help train Google's AI models I mean it makes

76
00:05:03,540 --> 00:05:08,880
sense I'm honestly just surprised they put it in writing in their privacy

77
00:05:06,660 --> 00:05:12,900
policy maybe they wanted to finally do something that openai didn't do First

78
00:05:10,699 --> 00:05:16,560
Multiple third-party Reddit apps shut down over the weekend due to the API

79
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:20,280
changes taking effect while relay and now for Reddit have decided to switch to

80
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:24,960
a subscription model yeah the drama still isn't over as the moderators for r

81
00:05:22,139 --> 00:05:28,860
slash blind who are fun fact visually impaired alleged that Reddit has made it

82
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:33,479
impossible for them to actually moderate the more accessible red reader app is

83
00:05:31,740 --> 00:05:37,800
apparently impossible to log into for them but admin seems to be ignoring them

84
00:05:35,460 --> 00:05:40,020
when they ask questions hey Reddit maybe you should observe how much you're

85
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,680
blowing it Mark German teased several new Apple

86
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:48,180
monitors and his subscribers only newsletter including one with an onboard

87
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:52,080
iOS chip that can be used as a smart home display when your Mac is Idle to

88
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:56,940
give you an idea of what that might look like picture a computer monitor

89
00:05:54,539 --> 00:06:01,680
now picture a smart home display and now picture a gaping hole in your

90
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:05,880
savings account there it is valve has issued a rare

91
00:06:04,139 --> 00:06:09,660
statement after they were accused by a developer named Simon Carlos of

92
00:06:07,620 --> 00:06:13,860
rejecting games with AI generated assets from Steam basically they said their

93
00:06:12,060 --> 00:06:17,940
review process is a reflection of current copyright law and policies which

94
00:06:16,020 --> 00:06:21,780
shocked me because I was certain knowing the law would require you to be able to

95
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:25,800
count past two it's a valve can't count past two jokes

96
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:30,120
and Twitter decided to Institute limits on how many tweets users can read after

97
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:33,660
the change journalists were upset to find out that emergency service accounts

98
00:06:31,919 --> 00:06:37,740
were not exempt from the rate limit restrictions and Twitter was probably

99
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,000
upset to find out they might have been dedosing themselves at least according

100
00:06:39,780 --> 00:06:46,259
to one developer shortly after they instituted the rate limits tweetdeck

101
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:51,419
stopped working altogether I mean man why can't Elon have like one nice wait

102
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:55,560
how many companies does he own why can't he have five nice things and

103
00:06:54,060 --> 00:06:58,680
we hope you'll enjoy a nice thing of tech news this Wednesday when we drop

104
00:06:57,479 --> 00:07:03,360
another episode it won't be a holiday so we'll have a

105
00:07:00,780 --> 00:07:07,500
sidekick and I won't feel so alone I mean Mark's here but he's behind the

106
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:10,340
camera I'm all alone
