WEBVTT

00:00:00.370 --> 00:00:04.320
- The season really slowed down and I've lost interest I don't care who wins.

00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:09.130
Down to the Tech News. (man laughs) Reviews for AMD's Ryzen 5000 Series processors are up

00:00:09.130 --> 00:00:12.940
from many tech creators, including Linus Tech Tips. And I think there's are the best

00:00:12.940 --> 00:00:17.750
for completely objective reasons. You know, what else is objective? The fact that these chips (beep) slam!

00:00:17.750 --> 00:00:21.460
Not only do they destroy their predecessors, the Ryzen 3000 series,

00:00:21.460 --> 00:00:25.890
but in some cases, the lowest NCPU, the Ryzen 5 5600X

00:00:25.890 --> 00:00:29.427
beats Intel's Core i9-10900K.

00:00:29.427 --> 00:00:33.700
I actually pulled my hamstring there. But any launch in 2020 is gonna have some hiccups.

00:00:33.700 --> 00:00:37.050
And there are some indications that, like previous Ryzen generations,

00:00:37.050 --> 00:00:41.500
memory speed can have an impact on performance. AMD is working on further optimizations

00:00:41.500 --> 00:00:45.740
that will be released as BIOS updates. Scalpers have also struck once again

00:00:45.740 --> 00:00:48.880
and you can currently find these new processors on eBay

00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:53.730
for thousands of dollars instead of hundreds. But regardless, AMD has hit it out of the park here

00:00:53.730 --> 00:00:57.830
faster and further than ever before. Making it look like even with Rocket Lakes

00:00:57.830 --> 00:01:03.230
supposed IPC improvements, Intel might have a hard time staying competitive in 2021.

00:01:03.230 --> 00:01:07.170
We'll all be lucky to just be in 2021 (laughs)

00:01:07.170 --> 00:01:11.070
So at the end of the day, yeah, who cares? - [Man] Come on, say it.

00:01:11.070 --> 00:01:14.170
- That's the way of the dingle hopper dangles. (Man applauding)

00:01:14.170 --> 00:01:17.873
Apple is expected to unveil the first Mac books built with its in-house Apple Silicon processors, next week.

00:01:17.873 --> 00:01:22.873
An Apple insider claimed to have inside information

00:01:22.960 --> 00:01:26.320
about how they'll perform. - [Man] Well that's what they do. - The site found geek bench results

00:01:26.320 --> 00:01:31.420
for the A14 X, which is a variant of the A14 found in the new iPhone 12s and iPad air.

00:01:31.420 --> 00:01:35.420
Which show the chip beating the A14 and an Intel core i9 powered Mac

00:01:35.420 --> 00:01:40.303
in both single and multistarter benchmarks. Sure these chips will be running the new ARM-based version

00:01:40.303 --> 00:01:44.790
of macOS. So if they can't get the emulation right, this horsepower will be for nothing.

00:01:44.790 --> 00:01:48.060
And don't forget that this is just a rumor right now.

00:01:48.060 --> 00:01:51.430
The Apple insider can't even verify the benchmarks even really happened.

00:01:51.430 --> 00:01:57.270
So, I'm sure that's what Intel is telling themselves. As they prepare to have their laptops chips beaten

00:01:57.270 --> 00:02:02.560
by an overgrown smartphone processor. - [Man] It's for baby. - They suck. They're just getting attacked everywhere.

00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:05.800
- [Man] Oh, what the... - And it looks like Epic is getting some help from NVIDIA

00:02:05.800 --> 00:02:08.960
in their fight to bring fortnight back to iOS.

00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:12.640
The BBC, which is a broadcast channel says (chuckles)

00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:16.810
NVIDIA has developed a web app version of its cloud gaming service GeForce NOW.

00:02:16.810 --> 00:02:21.030
Which will allow iOS users to play the game through the Safari web browser,

00:02:21.030 --> 00:02:24.166
along with many other games that are better than Fortnite. - [Man] Oh thank goodness.

00:02:24.166 --> 00:02:29.100
If this is true, NVIDIA would not only be the latest cloud gaming company to try and skip the app store

00:02:29.100 --> 00:02:32.790
and it's 30% of revenue cut by making a service available through a web browser.

00:02:32.790 --> 00:02:36.540
Amazon Luna uses this method and unofficial Stadia browser app was available

00:02:36.540 --> 00:02:39.620
until Apple took it down. And Microsoft is apparently looking into this

00:02:39.620 --> 00:02:44.480
as a way to bring X cloud to iOS. The BBC claims NVIDIA's web app will be announced

00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:48.810
before the winter holidays. So iPhone Fortnite players may finally get to perform

00:02:48.810 --> 00:02:51.890
their stupid dances just in time to make Christmas

00:02:51.890 --> 00:02:55.580
worse for everybody. (man jeering ) Just find a new game, there's so much time.

00:02:55.580 --> 00:03:01.010
Now it's time for the quick bids brought to you by Redux, a PC builder, striving to PC gaming to the masses.

00:03:01.010 --> 00:03:05.120
Redux will build you a PC with no markup pricing. You pay the same price you would

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:09.550
if you were buying components directly and Redux only charges a $75 bill fee.

00:03:09.550 --> 00:03:14.750
Select your budget, pick your games, see how they perform on your hardware, and Redux's expert builders will handle the rest.

00:03:14.750 --> 00:03:18.540
They don't cut corners on quality so all of the builds come with a two year warranty.

00:03:18.540 --> 00:03:22.320
So click the link in the description and start creating your PC today.

00:03:22.320 --> 00:03:29.410
Do it or else you're procrastinating like a bozo. Ooh, quick bit. (Man laughing)

00:03:29.410 --> 00:03:32.870
The PlayStation 5 is just launching real soon but the hype is being diminished somewhat.

00:03:32.870 --> 00:03:39.850
If you wanted to pre-order you probably won't be able to get it or the new X-Box in stores on launch day.

00:03:39.850 --> 00:03:42.890
Also at the PS5 doesn't support 1440p natively.

00:03:42.890 --> 00:03:46.580
Sorry people who play PlayStation on a monitor, there's dozens of us.

00:03:46.580 --> 00:03:51.370
And also it turns out Godfall, is only a six month PS5 exclusive.

00:03:51.370 --> 00:03:54.550
On the other hand, at least the PS5 has exclusives,

00:03:54.550 --> 00:03:58.540
since basically all the X-Box ones have been delayed to next year.

00:03:58.540 --> 00:04:02.340
Have you heard of a PC though? - [Man] I hear they're good. - They got Ray tracing.

00:04:02.340 --> 00:04:06.080
Okay, sorry. One more election story. Social media platforms are continuing to weather

00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:10.540
the massive surge of misinformation that has sprung up this week, with Facebook and TikToK outright

00:04:10.540 --> 00:04:14.914
blocking the hashtags stop the steal and sharpie gate.

00:04:14.914 --> 00:04:18.760
- [Man] Yep. - Twitter isn't blocking anything but is slapping more labels on tweets,

00:04:18.760 --> 00:04:22.810
than the flex tape guy slapped that flex tape on tubs of water.

00:04:22.810 --> 00:04:25.880
- [Man] Is there another more pertinent meme about slapping things?

00:04:25.880 --> 00:04:29.540
- Did he do that more than once? - [Man] I don't know. - He's got so many tanks.

00:04:29.540 --> 00:04:33.870
Do you like to text people while you're drunk and then regret it later? Well WhatsApp is rolling out a feature

00:04:33.870 --> 00:04:37.400
that will allow users to set their messages to self delete after seven days.

00:04:37.400 --> 00:04:41.770
But WhatsApp is owned by Facebook. So the word deleted here might mean something more like

00:04:41.770 --> 00:04:45.940
plucked and deposited into a box Mark Zuckerberg keeps under his bed. (chuckles)

00:04:45.940 --> 00:04:50.930
Just cries over it. (imitating crying) Your data, gives him strength, in exchange, are his tears,

00:04:50.930 --> 00:04:55.530
which gives me strength. Soon he will transcend us all, and I will be his Valkyrie.

00:04:55.530 --> 00:04:59.100
Netflix is testing a new linear TV style channel called

00:04:59.100 --> 00:05:04.130
Direct, in France. The channel will play assorted shows, documentaries, movies

00:05:04.130 --> 00:05:11.440
apparently without the ability to rewind. Which is weird because you can do that with TV now

00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:15.790
if you could find someone who even has it. It's going back to our roots as a species.

00:05:15.790 --> 00:05:19.800
When we bashed rocks together, you can't rewind rocks. - [Man] True, I try it.

00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:23.500
- And after the hacker game Watchdogs Legion had its source code hacked,

00:05:23.500 --> 00:05:28.290
GitHub has had its source code leaked and posted on GitHub.

00:05:28.290 --> 00:05:31.560
This isn't actually that big of a deal because the source code was actually already available.

00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:35.610
But if GitHub was posted on GitHub, that means that there's an infinite series of GitHubs

00:05:35.610 --> 00:05:39.460
within GitHubs all the way down. And tampering with it could lead to

00:05:39.460 --> 00:05:44.250
the universe's destruction and a GitHub boot loop paradox.

00:05:44.250 --> 00:05:47.563
If your grandfather invented GitHub, you won't be born.

00:05:48.418 --> 00:05:54.060
(popping) - That's the end of this episode, come back on Monday.

00:05:54.060 --> 00:05:57.553
James? I feel him. He's still here.
