00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.480
riley why do you do so much tech news i never met a tech news i didn't like it

00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:10.719
seems like the number of cores we can get on our home pcs has been rising

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:14.000
rapidly the past few years or should i say risin

00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.960
oh i love that joke and it looks like AMD is going to be pushing the envelope

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:26.160
yet again turns out those leaks about the threadripper 3990x were true because

00:00:23.680 --> 00:00:31.920
AMD has now officially announced the chip it'll arrive next year with 64

00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:34.239
physical cores and 128 threads the chip

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:37.920
is also expected to have a TDP of 280 watts so you'll need quite a bit of

00:00:36.160 --> 00:00:41.680
cooling horsepower to keep the CPU from getting too hot of course i don't think

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:45.120
there's going to be that huge of a home market for a chip with that many cores

00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:48.559
and AMD itself even says they're targeting hollywood type content

00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:53.440
creators with a new release but you can always buy the chip anyway and create

00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:58.559
a massive dent in your bank account as it'll probably go for at least two grand

00:00:55.760 --> 00:01:02.480
you hollywood types i mean it'll be expensive but it'll be so fulfilling

00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:06.880
like that massive hole in my finances i did that google has responded to a major

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:10.720
criticism of its new stadia cloud gaming platform which has come under fire since

00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:16.240
its recent launch for missing features and a relatively small game library

00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:22.240
there's that too one of those complaints has been over the resolutions and frame rates gamers

00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:26.640
are actually getting instead of the 4k60 that was promised for many titles games

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:30.720
are running at either 1080 or 1440p sometimes at frame rates lower than 60.

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:34.720
i mean destiny 2 even runs at a lower resolution than it does on console plus

00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:38.799
graphics settings for stadia seem to be set at around medium instead of high or

00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:43.040
ultra even though the gpus used by stadius servers are according to google

00:01:41.119 --> 00:01:48.000
way beefier than the ones in the xbox one x and ps4 pro in their response

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:51.680
google's basically passed the buck onto developers saying it's up to them to

00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:55.360
achieve the best image quality and frame rate and the devs will continue to

00:01:53.600 --> 00:02:01.200
improve those things on stadium without the need for game patches or downloads

00:01:57.759 --> 00:02:03.040
so games will look better later google

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:06.960
promises so the fact that the tesla cyber trucks Windows were shattered with

00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:10.080
a metal ball during its launch event is the talk of the internet at the moment

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:14.560
huh yikes let's give it a single yike except

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:18.239
they broke two Windows elon musk himself has an explanation for

00:02:16.959 --> 00:02:22.560
just went wrong with the truck's supposedly shatterproof Windows it turns

00:02:20.640 --> 00:02:25.280
out that before the ball was thrown the truck's lead designer took a

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:29.520
sledgehammer to the door which we all saw to show off how tough it was and

00:02:27.760 --> 00:02:34.160
while the door itself looked no worse for the wear the impact actually cracked

00:02:31.920 --> 00:02:38.319
the bottom of the glass weakening it and setting tesla up for a gigantic egg on

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:41.760
its face moment of course the back window shattered as well even though

00:02:40.160 --> 00:02:44.879
that door wasn't hit with a hammer but maybe tesla's designs are just too

00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:48.800
advanced for us mere mortals to understand fully this is really strong

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:53.680
we should have got the other guy to throw the ball we got our strongest guy

00:02:51.920 --> 00:02:56.400

00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:41.760
although the decline of the desktop pc market has left some gamers wondering

00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:45.200
what might become of their favorite hobby it looks like the actual higher

00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:49.360
end of the market that includes gaming pcs is doing fine as a new report has

00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:54.959
shown that discrete graphics cards are now in over 32 percent of pcs up over

00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:59.280
five percent in just one quarter in all add-in board shipments are up over 42

00:03:57.200 --> 00:04:06.319
percent i guess it helps that all those crypto miners aren't inflating demand

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:08.959
anymore those rascals those scallywags

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:12.159
john love john's vocabulary was cools although Intel has looked like it's

00:04:10.239 --> 00:04:17.280
given up trying to be a player in the 5g smartphone scene the company is now

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:19.359
going to try and bring 5g to pcs instead

00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:24.160
in a partnership with mediatek Intel will be creating 5g modems for desktops

00:04:21.919 --> 00:04:29.199
and laptops which we should start seeing in 2021 as we hopefully move toward a

00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:33.840
future without all those messy wires maybe stadia will be a bit better over

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:39.360
5g i don't know it can only help if you're a skilled bug pirate google's bug

00:04:36.479 --> 00:04:43.199
bounty program pogram program is now offering a cool million dollars if you

00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:47.840
can find a weakness in its titan m security chip which features inside its

00:04:45.520 --> 00:04:51.120
pixel 3 and pixel 4 smartphones there are smaller but still quite princely

00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:54.800
bounties for other Android vulnerabilities so get hacking and maybe

00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:58.880
you won't have to rent out your basement to those weird smelling tenants just to

00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:03.600
pay your mortgage anymore just kidding this is vancouver

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:07.520
you still have to do it yep if you're living in or visiting london

00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:11.600
you may not see ubers on the streets in the near future the city has decided not

00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:15.759
to renew uber's license as it has a history of operating unlicensed and

00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:21.120
uninsured vehicles in the area uber plans to appeal and can offer rides in

00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:22.800
the meantime but if the worst happens

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:27.680
i mean what will people do what did you do before uber wait

00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.680
take a lift

00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:35.759

a number of major chain stores it comes with 42 games but notably no sonic 3.

00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:49.199
rumor has it that it has something to do with the fact michael jackson was

00:05:46.479 --> 00:05:53.039
involved with the music i guess he didn't have gamers in mind

00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:55.360
when he said don't stop till you get enough

00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:02.400
awkward and we don't want you to stop until you get enough tech news but

00:06:00.479 --> 00:06:07.120
