00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,640
welcome to techlink brought to you by lttstore.com well no we're not really

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,120
it's not i mean like it is

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:15,679
short i guess so sort of microsoft finally gave the public a look at the

4
00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:19,520
games lineup for the xbox series x in the xbox games showcase yesterday and

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:23,920
they didn't waste any time diving right into the game everybody wanted to see

6
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:27,760
halo infinite except the fans weren't ready for the game's lackluster graphics

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:32,719
quality with multiple articles written about how we need to talk about the

8
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:36,960
graphics a proper trailer uploaded later seemed to look slightly better but it

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:40,960
still has fans worried that 343 might have taken their og halo inspiration a

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:45,040
bit too literally later it was revealed that the demo

11
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:48,800
wasn't even running on the series x but on a pc making things even more

12
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:52,079
confusing well the devs will probably have some time to fix it since halo

13
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:57,039
infinite is supposed to be the final halo title with the next 10 years of

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:01,359
halo content slated to arrive as updates for the game not as standalone titles of

15
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:06,080
course microsoft showed off some non-halo games as well with psychonauts

16
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:10,240
2 stalker 2 i'm excited about that one and a new fable along with 20 titles in

17
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:14,159
the live stream that will all be coming to xbox game pass oh and obsidian is

18
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:18,640
making what basically looks like an elder scrolls game because if bethesda

19
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:22,000
won't make a skyrim sequel somebody has to do they though

20
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:24,960
i mean we don't need it how many consoles are going to come out

21
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:29,920
in the next five years to release skyrim on that's true

22
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:33,680
Intel having a bad day sadly seems to be the norm now the company has announced

23
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:37,920
their seven nanometer process will be delayed by another six months meaning

24
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:44,240
they don't even expect seven nanometer chips on the market until late 2022 or

25
00:01:40,960 --> 00:01:44,240
early 2023

26
00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:50,079
the news is made more embarrassing by the fact that NVIDIA and AMD already

27
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:54,720
have seven nanometer products out on the market and yes we know that those

28
00:01:53,040 --> 00:02:02,000
process names don't actually refer to anything meaningful in terms of the actual process size but they do refer to

29
00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:06,320
your mom shut up oh rude nick

30
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:10,000
good great the delay has forced Intel to consider outsourcing production of its

31
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,840
chips instead of making its own a development that caused the company's

32
00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:18,480
shares to tumble seems like apple started this transition to ARM at just

33
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:23,280
the right time for apple not for Intel that also sucks for Intel but if a guy

34
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:28,959
named bob swann can't lead Intel back to greatness who can riley

35
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:32,640
and speaking of ARM that company is so hot right now NVIDIA is reportedly

36
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:37,440
considering buying them from their current japanese owner softbank reports

37
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:41,360
claim that team green has approached ARM to discuss a potential acquisition you

38
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:45,599
might expect that apple would consider buying them instead given apple's new

39
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:50,400
ARM only future but tim has enough on his plate already not adding usbc to

40
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:53,200
iphones it takes a lot of willpower to avoid doing the obvious thing you should

41
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:59,040
definitely do if NVIDIA does make the purchase they could add CPU chops to their already

42
00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:03,840
powerful GPU chops as evidenced by the new leak of next-gen ampere GPU showing

43
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:08,239
performance around 43 percent faster than touring can't wait for those new

44
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:12,239
gpus so that i can get a discount on an old one up top frugality

45
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:18,000
kovid practices social distancing yeah

46
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,440
bump elbows now it's time for the quick bits brought to you by ifixit bits wait

47
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:26,319
what i fix it once to make sure you have the right bit for the job so you can use the

48
00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:30,560
right kit to take apart and repair almost any piece of electronics you want

49
00:03:28,239 --> 00:03:36,480
there's the mako kit with 64 small bits the mahi with 48 large bits or you can

50
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:39,280
get the manta with all 112 bits each one

51
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:43,920
of them quick each kit includes ifixit's famous swivel knurled screwdriver in a

52
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:48,959
magnetic enclosed case with everything held together in cut foam check it out

53
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:54,000
at ifixit.com techlinked or click the link down below through rain and snow

54
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:57,439
the quick fit soldier on a government hearing on antitrust scheduled for this

55
00:03:55,599 --> 00:04:02,080
monday has been delayed but when it gets rescheduled it's going to be a doozy

56
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:06,799
because mark zuckerberg jeff bezos tim apple and sundar pichai are all set to

57
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:12,000
testify because apparently their companies can't not break anti-monopoly

58
00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:16,160
regulations amazon was recently found to be buying stakes in tech startups

59
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:20,160
stealing their tech and then launching competitors against them and google has

60
00:04:18,479 --> 00:04:24,240
apparently been monitoring non-google apps for usage patterns so it can build

61
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:28,800
its own version i mean hey they're just trying to make the world a better place right for

62
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:31,280
themselves do you tell him nick

63
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:36,080
you really late we will never see movies in theaters

64
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:41,040
again following the indefinite delay of christopher nolan's tenet disney has

65
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:45,680
delayed the release of mulan and even push back the new avatar and star wars

66
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:50,240
movies the new top gun and a quiet place too have also been delayed because some

67
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:57,360
people won't wear a freaking mask look i can only re-watch trolls world tour so

68
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:59,040
many times wash your dang hands

69
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:04,080
russia may have just tested an anti-satellite weapon in space according

70
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,160
to the us and uk militaries the evidence

71
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:10,240
isn't conclusive and it may not be until russia actually blows up a satellite so

72
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:14,320
this year might be about to get even crazier 2020

73
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:19,039
please stop the u.s energy department has announced

74
00:05:17,039 --> 00:05:23,120
plans to develop and build a quantum internet that would use entangled

75
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:27,360
photons for communication such a network would be super secure because observing

76
00:05:25,039 --> 00:05:31,759
any information would actually alter it you know what sounds even better than

77
00:05:29,039 --> 00:05:36,400
that though rolling out decent internet to everyone first i mean like do you

78
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:40,880
have gigabit i know i don't we could though and gebo

79
00:05:38,479 --> 00:05:45,600
lives the lovable robots makers have been

80
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:48,880
acquired by a company called ntt disruption who will adapt this

81
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,560
functionality to serve in healthcare and education so now we don't have to watch

82
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,000
it dance its way to an early grave we love you gebo

83
00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:59,759
and i would love to keep doing this episode but it's got to be over by now

84
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,360
come back on monday for more tech news because you'll probably need a little

85
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:04,400
bit of a pick-me-up by then

86
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,840
mondays suck
