00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,040
thanks to lastpass for sponsoring a portion of this video this is how you

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:08,880
stretch james which one is this

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,440
we're gonna do tech news yeah just a sec i just gotta

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:21,359
NVIDIA's newest graphics card the rtx 3060 ti launched today for 3.99 and the

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:26,240
consensus seems to be that it's pretty good the 3060 ti is generally

6
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:30,800
better than the rtx 2080 super and even bites at the heels of the 2080 ti and

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:35,120
it's only real competitor price wise is the rx xbox series s not

8
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,840
actually the rx 5700 xt which performs about 30

9
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:43,360
percent worse so if your budget is around 400 bucks it

10
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:46,640
seems like a no-brainer provided you have the free time that is now necessary

11
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:50,719
for anyone in the market for a GPU to spend refreshing product pages although

12
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:56,160
according to hardware canuck's retail contacts stock for the 3060 ti should

13
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:59,359
add up to more than the 30 70 30 80 and

14
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,879
30 90 combined but if social media is

15
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:04,400
any indication people are still having trouble getting orders through if only

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:07,119
because store websites are getting slammed

17
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:11,760
well at least we can look forward to january that's when AMD is expected to

18
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:16,240
release the rx 6700 and we should also get rtx 30 series laptops both of those

19
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,920
things will also probably have stock problems but maybe we should just accept

20
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:24,799
that it's not about the destination it's about the journey the long long journey

21
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:29,119
at least you got to click a buy button yes ARM processors are a bigger deal now

22
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:33,280
that apple's released their m1 powered max so here we are reporting on new

23
00:01:31,439 --> 00:01:39,759
smartphone processors samsung announced the exynos 1080 and

24
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:41,920
qualcomm unveiled the snapdragon 888 an

25
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:46,000
eight core system very lucky it's an eight core system on chip with pumped up

26
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:51,520
ai capabilities and built-in 5g and wi-fi 6. now to be fair these might not

27
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:56,399
just be smartphone processors qualcomm snapdragon 8cx chips which power many

28
00:01:54,159 --> 00:02:02,479
Windows 10 on ARM laptops are based on the aging snapdragon 865 so updated

29
00:01:59,439 --> 00:02:04,159
desktop chips based on the 8888.88

30
00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:08,879
could mean Windows on ARM devices could be just as good as the apple m1

31
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:13,599
good night sweet Intel as a joke they're not it's not

32
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:18,560
maybe qualcomm believes it's possible company reps say that m1 has validated

33
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:22,879
the idea of ARM-powered pcs and japan apparently agrees apple shot up to the

34
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:26,720
number one spot in desktop pc market share there in that country following

35
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:31,200
the launch of the m1 max most of these sales weren't m1 models they were the

36
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:35,599
older Intel ones but hey at the very least we can say an ARM-powered laptop

37
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:40,720
is a flashy futuristic idea and i'm all for those a walking car

38
00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:44,160
come on and earlier this year iphones were vulnerable to a hack that could

39
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:49,360
have allowed attackers to gain full control of the device over Wi-Fi with no

40
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:53,120
user interaction required and not only that the attack could worm its way from

41
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:58,800
one infected iphone to another within range giving a hacker access to untold

42
00:02:56,239 --> 00:03:02,800
legions of data just by walking through a crowded area to be fair those have

43
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:06,319
been few and far between for much of 2020 and apple actually patched the

44
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:12,080
vulnerability that enabled this sort of attack with iOS version 13.5 back in may

45
00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:16,720
so you can stop looking worried edsel i don't know

46
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:20,959
update your phone so if you're still running 13.4 or lower let's just hope

47
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:25,200
you've been observing quarantine and also

48
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:28,800
update your dang phone don't be an edsel don't live with spies

49
00:03:26,959 --> 00:03:33,280

58
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:11,439
get it once again thanks to lastpass for sponsoring that portion of the video now

59
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:13,200
onto the quick bits japan loves max well

60
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:16,799
so does amazon because the company just announced instances of macOS are

61
00:04:15,439 --> 00:04:21,040
available in the company's cloud infrastructure the instances are running

62
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:25,199
on actual mac minis although they're Intel models not the new m1s i guess

63
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:29,040
apple had to dump their old stock somewhere amazon is also announcing

64
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:33,919
computer vision-based services that will allow factories to detect whether

65
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,400
machinery and human workers are working

66
00:04:33,919 --> 00:04:41,280
well makes sense people protest amazon's draconian working conditions they double

67
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:47,440
down it's how compromise works remember facebook's cryptocurrency libra

68
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:51,360
you don't that's okay they're renaming it to diem in preparation of the coins

69
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:55,360
launched next year in a much more limited form than was originally planned

70
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:59,600
public reaction to the currency included a lot of skepticism because of its ties

71
00:04:57,280 --> 00:05:03,600
to facebook so this move is reportedly designed to distance diem from facebook

72
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:09,280
in the minds of consumers and legislators and us talking about it is

73
00:05:05,759 --> 00:05:11,680
designed to do the opposite diem

74
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:16,400
carpe diem it's the new thing you'll forget about remember that the arecibo

75
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:19,919
radio telescope has collapsed weeks after the national science foundation

76
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:23,600
said that the dish was too badly damaged and too dangerous to attempt repair and

77
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:27,600
we knew this was going to happen but it would have been nice to film one last

78
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:31,919
bond action sequence there you know and then film no more bond movies ever

79
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:36,720
or at least not release them yeah just keep them to yourself china

80
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:39,840
has successfully landed their chang e and i'm definitely saying that wrong

81
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:43,840
probe on the surface of the moon and begun to gather moon rocks if the lander

82
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:48,000
successfully returns to earth it will be the first time moon rocks have made it

83
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:52,080
back here in over four decades and thank goodness because we're running

84
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:56,320
dangerously low on moon rocks the time portal's gonna

85
00:05:53,520 --> 00:06:00,160
run out of juice any day now and google has switched over its internet providing

86
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,680
loon hot air balloons to fully autonomous flight relying on

87
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:08,479
reinforcement learning algorithms for navigation instead of ones crafted by

88
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:12,400
humans in tests the ai was reportedly able to keep balloons in target areas

89
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:16,720
for longer while using less energy and used complex maneuvers the loon team

90
00:06:14,479 --> 00:06:19,840
hadn't seen before he's

91
00:06:17,759 --> 00:06:23,840
he's switched off his targeting computer it's time to switch off this episode so

92
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:29,919
come back on friday for more tech news and if you don't well

93
00:06:26,479 --> 00:06:29,919
i won't be able to save you
