1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,440
man there's nothing that gets any more revved up for the weekend than some good

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:11,200
old-fashioned lawsuits let's go let's litigate

3
00:00:08,639 --> 00:00:16,400
litigation no breathing epic games has executed an unprecedented

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:21,760
campaign against apple and google for the 30 cut those guys take of revenue

5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:26,080
from their respective app stores first epic set the bait with a direct payment

6
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,920
option for the fortnite v-bucks that skipped the apple tax apple then

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,640
responded by removing fortnite from the app store and google followed suit but

8
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:41,360
epic was ready they released an in-game commercial parodying apple's infamous

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:43,520
1984 ad but framing apple as the bad guy

10
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:48,000
and fired off lawsuits at apple and google that had clearly been prepared

11
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:52,719
months before the lawsuits hinge on the anti-competitive nature of that 30 cut

12
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:57,600
taken by google and apple but which apple also takes from all in-app

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:02,160
transactions that's a monopoly baby epic also alleges

14
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:05,760
that google blocked a deal with oneplus which would have seen a special

15
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:10,320
fortnight launcher pre-loaded on the company's phones alongside the lawsuits

16
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:14,240
epic has gone into full-on pr battle mode telling its players that if apple

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,200
and google don't change their ways you guys will miss the next season of

18
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:22,000
fortnite this is crazy you definitely want to

19
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:26,640
play as like ant-man or something don't you definitely don't you now you i don't

20
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:30,159
get that but now even if we agree with epic's ultimate goal here we have to

21
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:34,560
acknowledge that epics know saint themselves they're basically recruiting

22
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:40,320
kids to attack apple with hashtags and wait a second what about the consoles

23
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:43,920
which all charge a 30 platform tax but at the very least we can thank epic for

24
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,479
providing us with some summer entertainment it's a billionaire rumble

25
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:55,840
going about a royale with tim cook while all that was happening Intel was busy

26
00:01:53,759 --> 00:02:00,640
talking about technology improvements in their processors as part of an

27
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:04,079
architecture day 2020 which sounds like a school event that cool kids would not

28
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:09,039
attend according to Intel their new transistor

29
00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:14,000
called 10 nanometers superfin is the largest single intranode advancement in

30
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:18,480
the company's history i should hope so and should lead to improvements in 10

31
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:23,200
nanometer processor performance that might make it easier to wait until 2020

32
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:27,520
for their 7 nanometer products whoa 2022 read that wrong that makes a

33
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:32,959
difference those seven nanometer products zlp or

34
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:38,480
low power graphics will come embedded in tiger lake processors when they launch

35
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,640
this fall while z hpg which uh sounds

36
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:45,599
like a venereal disease or high power gaming will arrive with raytrade support

37
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:50,080
in the company's first external graphics cards in 2021 that's sooner than later

38
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,480
all in all the event might have been enough to restore a bit of confidence

39
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:58,800
that Intel may just come back from the absolute thrashing they've been enduring

40
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:02,959
the past couple of years hp got so excited about Intel's

41
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:08,080
news that they accidentally leaked a tiger leak-powered laptop on their site

42
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:11,519
but then they sucked it back in just as fast i wish i could do that

43
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:19,120
hi mark and speaking of leaks a spec table courtesy of memory maker micron

44
00:03:17,519 --> 00:03:24,640
has revealed that NVIDIA's upcoming ampere graphics cards will be led by the

45
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:30,159
rtx 3090. the leak indicates the card will have 12

46
00:03:26,959 --> 00:03:32,799
gigabytes of gddr6 x memory with each

47
00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:38,159
module supporting up to 21 gigabits per second of bandwidth for a total memory

48
00:03:34,959 --> 00:03:39,760
bandwidth of one terabyte per second i

49
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:42,640
can't go that fast will they really break that barrier one terabyte per

50
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:47,840
second wow wow we didn't get an rtx 2090 in the

51
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:52,720
past generation but we did have a titan rtx so it remains to be seen whether the

52
00:03:49,599 --> 00:03:54,879
rtx 3090 is at the actual top of the

53
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:59,360
stack or whether NVIDIA will add another ridiculously overpowered and overpriced

54
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:05,439
model that basically no one should buy i take it back apple google and epic can

55
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,439
buy them and have sword fights with them

56
00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:10,640

76
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,000
megazord

77
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:31,840
a california judge has ruled that amazon can be liable for defects in third-party

78
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:36,400
products sold on its marketplace after a woman endured third degree burns from a

79
00:05:33,919 --> 00:05:42,000
defective laptop battery amazon is supposed to be protected from liability

80
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:43,759
in cases like this by section 230 or 230

81
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,919
for you fast talkers of the communications decency act but at the

82
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,360
same time jeff can afford it

83
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:54,720
google will stop responding to data requests from the government of hong

84
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:59,199
kong after a new law was passed requiring said government to pass such

85
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:03,440
data onto china google is actually following tick tock here which did the

86
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:07,840
same thing back in july but tick tock is owned by bite dance a chinese company

87
00:06:05,919 --> 00:06:12,160
the heck's going on here i think it's time to do the detective dance what does

88
00:06:09,919 --> 00:06:14,400
that look like i'm not doing that just because you write it doesn't mean

89
00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:18,800
i'm okay fine

90
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:26,400
i have two magnifying glasses speed tests from the beta for spacex's

91
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,600
starlink satellite internet service are showing

92
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:34,000
less than impressive speeds with pings over 30 milliseconds and download speeds

93
00:06:31,919 --> 00:06:37,520
ranging from 11 to 60 megabits per second but that might be plenty for

94
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:42,319
rural customers who are still using freaking dial-up or other even crappier

95
00:06:40,479 --> 00:06:47,039
satellite things plus your internet will be coming from space

96
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:51,759
think about that well and for your daily wtf moment here's a phone case being

97
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:58,479
developed by researchers in seoul korea that has robotic legs it can use to

98
00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:58,479
wiggle its way onto a wireless charger

99
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:05,280
why and why do i want it yeah whatever this

100
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:09,120
