1
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:08,880
you ready to party it's not really a party not important

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:12,559
let's do it we didn't really mention this on monday for

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:17,840
some reason but AMD and Intel both launched their flagship high-end desktop

4
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:19,760
or hedt cpus this week they did it on

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:23,920
monday interestingly the embargo for reviews of Intel's chip ended at

6
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:28,320
midnight on sunday six hours before AMD's embargo expired monday morning

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:33,920
perhaps because they knew that their 18 core core i9 10 980 xe wasn't going to

8
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:40,719
look so good against AMD's Threadripper 3960x and 3970x with 24 and 32 cores

9
00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:46,160
respect Linus let loose a solid rant in his review on Linus tech

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:49,600
tips uh he was really upset always fun to watch

11
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:53,600
anyways the story is pretty similar to the one we've been telling for the past

12
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:58,320
year or so AMD's multi-core chips are getting so good it's getting pretty hard

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,320
to justify buying Intel i mean we should have seen this coming it's called thread

14
00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:07,439
ripper not thread friendship thread get along no thread

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:12,240
fatality in january NVIDIA finally caved and

16
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:17,040
opened up its g-sync ecosystem a bit by certifying select free sync monitors as

17
00:01:14,479 --> 00:01:20,640
g-sync compatible allowing owners of g-force graphics cards to use the

18
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:24,799
variable refresh rate technology on previously unsupported displays since

19
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:29,759
then the list of compatible models has grown steadily but now NVIDIA is ready

20
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:33,360
to open up its heart even more so much progress team green has

21
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:37,680
announced that future g-sync monitors will support both variable refresh rate

22
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:41,200
over HDMI and adaptive sync the technology that freesync is based on

23
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:45,920
over a displayport apparently this capability will now only be available in

24
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:49,759
new g-sync monitors not existing ones but still once this change rolls out

25
00:01:47,759 --> 00:01:54,399
it'll allow owners of AMD graphics cards and consoles to experience vrr on both

26
00:01:52,240 --> 00:02:01,680
freesync and g-sync monitors meaning the whole competing closed ecosystem of

27
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,680
g-stink versus freesync will be over

28
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:09,350
do the thing like from episode star wars episode one

29
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:13,440
peace what part is that

30
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:18,400
you know anyways

31
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:23,760
i don't make it past energy beam hallway and europe has gone and done it again

32
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:26,000
they've run out of internet ip addresses

33
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:32,319
the non-profit foundation that allocates ip addresses rousseau ip europeanus or

34
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,519
ripe actually serves europe the middle east and parts of central asia and

35
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:40,319
they've warned against this outcome for a while now there's a limited amount

36
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:43,920
about 4.2 billion of possible ipv4 addresses which is the current

37
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:49,840
mainstream standard if internet service providers switch to ipv6 there could be

38
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:53,040
340 undecillion addresses available

39
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:55,120
that's a 10 followed by 36 or 66 zeros

40
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:58,000
depending on where you live the point is more

41
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:01,760
it's more okay now it's time for the quick bits brought to you by privacy.com

54
00:03:48,239 --> 00:03:54,959
amazon's voice assistant a-l-e-x-a is going to show up in even more internet

55
00:03:52,400 --> 00:04:00,640
of things type devices soon and she'll also be able to express more emotion and

56
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,360
one day we will be lovers programmers developing for alexa can now have the

57
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:09,439
assistant sound happy or disappointed depending on the context so even if

58
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:13,360
she's saying something depressing i'm playing a single hand in what looks

59
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:18,000
like a losing game and for a while you can forget that life is pain

60
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:21,600
speaking of creepy amazon moves the web giant has stopped a product sampling

61
00:04:19,919 --> 00:04:24,880
program that sent customers free products recommended by a machine

62
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,720
learning program based on their purchased history i can already guess

63
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:32,160
why the access program it's nice getting gifts from people you know but it's kind

64
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:37,280
of weird getting a gift from a robot you've never met before because it's

65
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:37,280
been watching your every move

66
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:47,199
after a member of ford's r d team challenged elon tusk to a ford versus

67
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:49,280
cyber truck rematch and elon agreed ford

68
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:52,720
the company has backed out of the contest

69
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:56,560
wimps a spokesperson said ford has always focused on serving our truck

70
00:04:54,639 --> 00:05:00,240
customers regardless of what others say or do oh

71
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:04,960
that may have been a subtle dig at elon's uh constant tweeting but it still

72
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:11,120
makes them look a little bit ford chicken

73
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:12,560
that joke was built forward rough

74
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:16,160
new york they're set to be the latest american

75
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:20,080
city to ban vape products that aren't strictly tobacco-flavored as city

76
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,520
council passed a bill to that effect yesterday i mean it kind of makes sense

77
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,639
the only legal flavors of regular cigarettes in the states are tobacco and

78
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:29,919
menthol but it definitely makes being part of the vape niche a little less

79
00:05:28,639 --> 00:05:32,160
wild you know like

80
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:39,520
and the latest target demographic for virtual reality

81
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:43,680
cows sorry what yeah a farm in russia gave its dairy cows vr headsets that

82
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:48,560
place them in a sunny grassy field instead of their real cold

83
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:52,479
gray russian reality in an attempt to reduce their anxiety and therefore

84
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,199
produce better and more milk but i don't think they knew what they were doing

85
00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:58,880
it's only a matter of time before we're looking at the first bovine beet saver

86
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:03,440
champion it's gonna happen they're taking over would they hold it like this

87
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,680
or like this six okay

88
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:10,639
it's only a matter of time before this episode ended on a weird conceptual joke

89
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:16,000
uh but we got there come back on friday and have more and better uh hey

90
00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:21,840
tech news we'll be in vr the whole time

91
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,840
that's all you know the mood tricks
