1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:08,639
a light shines to the west

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:09,679
the tech news calls will you

3
00:00:08,639 --> 00:00:13,759
answer full reviews for Intel's 11th gen rocket

4
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:17,440
lake desktop processors are out including the one that i did over on our

5
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:23,039
technology related youtube channel Linus tech tips what what's that oh i don't

6
00:00:20,240 --> 00:00:26,640
know it seems uh a little bit niche you know

7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:29,760
it's none of those tech news over there yeah mostly about dropping things and

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:34,079
tips about how to drop things more more efficiently you know while the core i5

9
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:40,960
11600k has gotten a decent performance upgrade over its predecessor the 10600k

10
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,719
the new core i9 eleven 900k has not

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:47,280
i'm not even there's a question mark on there i'm not even going to say it

12
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:51,920
it trades blows with the 10900k and doesn't manage to beat AMD's ryzen 9

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:55,120
5900x in most scenarios but that's fine pat gelsinger wasn't around for the

14
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:59,520
development of these chips okay this is the last lackluster launch from Intel

15
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:03,359
the next ones the next ones are going to be good

16
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:07,040
yeah yeah yeah yeah but there's there's a cherry on top of this sad story

17
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:11,280
remember when Intel did that big marketing blitz about how ryzen laptops

18
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:14,799
wait 10 seconds before boosting the full power well the developers behind the

19
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:20,000
custom power management app rise and adjust or add the abj

20
00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:25,439
the ryzen edge have figured out how to remove it so Intel's 12th gen chips

21
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:29,520
better be real good because they're running out of ways to make their processors seem competitive they're blue

22
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:34,479
though they are blue it's easier on the eyes

23
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,720
that's the opposite blue light is good for the brain

24
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:42,400
a researcher has conducted a study measuring how much data Android phones

25
00:01:40,479 --> 00:01:48,000
collect compared to iphones and concluded that Android sends 20 times

26
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:51,920
more data back to google then iOS sends back to apple the studies

27
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:56,240
author douglas leath from trinity college in ireland says that Android

28
00:01:53,920 --> 00:02:00,880
collects data for more apps and services than iOS even when users have opted out

29
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:05,200
in the os settings in response google released a statement saying they

30
00:02:03,119 --> 00:02:11,039
identified flaws in the researcher's methodology for measuring data volume

31
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:12,080
and disagree with the paper's claims oh

32
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:17,920
okay okay my mistake here's uh more of my

33
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:21,920
data as an apology thank you a good thing i use an iphone google says

34
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:26,959
that Android is compatible with many more apps services and devices so they

35
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:29,440
have more data to send oh wow thank you

36
00:02:26,959 --> 00:02:33,680
and more love to give and i've got to admit that that kind of makes sense but

37
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:38,080
20 times google it might be time to admit you have a

38
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:43,760
data problem we're putting in rehab no more data and microsoft has won a

39
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:45,360
nearly 22 billion dollar with a b

40
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:49,040
government contract to supply the us army with augmented reality headsets

41
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:52,239
over the next 10 years the company has been working with the army to develop

42
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:56,560
what it calls an integrated visual augmentation system or i guess as the

43
00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:01,200
army's going to call it ivas for versions of the hololens and i guess

44
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:05,519
the army liked it because you don't just drop 22 billion dollars on something you

45
00:03:03,519 --> 00:03:09,519
only feel okay about like that's love money like what's next a marriage

46
00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:14,239
contract get a room you two to be fair there

47
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,760
aren't a ton of other ar companies that the army could partner with they're

48
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:22,080
probably not eager to try out niantic's ar glasses which the company's ceo

49
00:03:20,239 --> 00:03:26,879
teased this week along with a trailer for a concept game called urban legends
