wow i thought i was out of the tech news game but
just keep pulling me back in surely 28
cores would be enough for any server CPU right well Intel disagrees as it's just
announced cascade lake line of xeon processors not only has an incredibly
refreshing code name but it also features up to 48 cores on a single chip
that's 16 more than AMD's competing epic series Intel also stated that the new
chips were retooled and don't suffer from the well-publicized spectre and
meltdown vulnerabilities although these chips were made on a 14-9 meter process
just like epic Intel is unsurprisingly claiming that they're more than three
times that's two three times as fast as AMD's offerings in certain tasks which
i'm sure will be what the average user experiences in the real world so it
looks like more cores is now the name of the game Intel's kind of pulling an AMD
here hey riley how many cores does it take to
screw in a light bulb 48 so this is the answer how many 48 cores
per light bulb cores don't have hands this is stupid remind me to never ask
you a knock knock joke in the roughly 5th
is the roughly 15 terabyte max capacity of today's hard drives just not enough
for you well seagate thinks that it can bring drives that hold a hundred
terabytes to market by 2025 or in roughly 182 fortnites that many video
games not the game the unit of time the new drives will use heat assisted
magnetic recording or hammer which works by heating small areas of the drive
platter with tiny lasers allowing data to be stored accurately at high
densities although we could actually see hammer products on the market before the
end of this year or maybe even early next year capacities will probably be
limited to around 16 terabytes for the time being but as the tech progresses
drives in the 50 terabyte range could appear in the next two or three years
and after that well it's hammer time
amazon is trying to spread some early holiday cheer by getting rid of the 25
minimum purchase requirement for free shipping sure to come in handy for those
of you without prime when shopping for gifts at least if you're in the us but
if you are a prime member don't fret because amazon's giving you a perk too
same day shipping for free on over 3 million items the promotion is gonna run
from now until shortly before christmas and although amazon might might end up
taking a hit on shipping costs for cheap gifts the company seems to be betting
that this will convince more people to sign up for prime or they're just
getting into the holiday spirit halloween's over so that means it's christmas right right now it's christmas
already hey no it's not it's not yet

november 8th now do netflix and igtv
yes i watch tv on instagram all the time nope we're probably gonna start seeing
5g smartphones next year but if you're an apple fan expect to wait until 2020
and for them to then claim that they invented it the company is reportedly
having problems with heat generated by Intel's 5g modems and may switch to
another supplier to avoid turning the next generation of apple products into
pies a hot apple just cause they're pies
cause they're apples a hot apple isn't a pie a hot apple is just a hot apple but
