00:00:00.179 --> 00:00:07.020
to celebrate movember I shaved my old mustache yesterday and then grew this

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:10.860
one don't worry I donated my old mustache to two kids in a trench coat

00:00:08.820 --> 00:00:15.420
trying to get in an R-rated movie so stop cycling just helping people out

00:00:12.660 --> 00:00:19.560
Elon Musk AKA The Ghost of Executives past lost two more high-ranking Twitter

00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:24.480
employees with the chief security officer and the head of trust and safety

00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:29.880
both resigning now I know that sounds bad but don't worry it gets worse the

00:00:27.779 --> 00:00:33.600
option to sign up for Twitter blue has disappeared from the site after its blue

00:00:31.619 --> 00:00:38.880
check mark feature enabled rampant impersonation of people and companies

00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:41.760
like you can see here and here and here

00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:47.040
and all over my Reddit theme ah who could have seen this coming literally

00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:52.800
everyone other than Elon well now after launching a second gray official check

00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:57.800
mark to do the job the first one used to do and then killing it Twitter has

00:00:55.379 --> 00:01:04.199
brought it back but only for the real really verified Brands and companies

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:09.780
solving problems over there well moving on now to another story

00:01:05.900 --> 00:01:12.119
oh there's more wow I am shocked and

00:01:09.780 --> 00:01:16.320
surprised mosque has also decided to scrap Twitter's work from home policy

00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:21.060
though exceptions will be made if Elon personally grants them you know Elon if

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:25.200
you made everyone work from home and you sold the offices you may be able to

00:01:22.979 --> 00:01:29.460
prevent the bankruptcy you are warning your remaining workers about just a

00:01:27.119 --> 00:01:34.380
thought but that's silly me you already have a plan for that and I must say it

00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:40.140
is genius Twitter can't go bankrupt if Twitter is the bank and that's economics

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:44.880
of 101 as we learned this speaking of going bankrupt the prices of

00:01:42.299 --> 00:01:51.360
many RTX 4080 models have been revealed and they are costly Micro Center has 13

00:01:49.380 --> 00:01:57.439
models listed on their site and only four are at MSRP ASUS or less

00:01:55.399 --> 00:02:04.680
no oh ASUS's Rog strix model is

00:02:00.259 --> 00:02:07.140
1550 only 50 bucks less than a Founders

00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:11.099
Edition 40 90. oh so that's how much the adapter costs

00:02:08.720 --> 00:02:15.959
50 more dollars for the chance to burn down my house sign me up that could be

00:02:14.160 --> 00:02:21.660
worse the 4080 could melt or something so that's a silver lining but it is 50

00:02:18.300 --> 00:02:23.580
less what a steal for ASUS in the

00:02:21.660 --> 00:02:28.920
scenario you're being robbed there are also rumors going around that NVIDIA is

00:02:25.260 --> 00:02:31.800
going to re-unlunch the RTX 2060 and

00:02:28.920 --> 00:02:36.840
2060 super after bringing a 12 Gigabyte version of the 2060 into stores at the

00:02:33.959 --> 00:02:42.780
end of 2021 to profit from I mean help the GPU shortage I mean it's sad the

00:02:39.900 --> 00:02:46.980
2060 was the best budget NVIDIA GPU at the time even beating out the 3050 in

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:51.360
performance and it's the second most popular card according to the steam

00:02:48.540 --> 00:02:56.099
Hardware survey from last month now this true short King can rest in power so

00:02:53.940 --> 00:03:02.060
NVIDIA can profit even more from overpriced 48s

00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.060
true self-sacrifice

00:03:02.340 --> 00:03:09.360
Dart the internet's home for artists and Tastefully iffing announced they are

00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:13.500
introducing dream up an air generator powered by stable diffusion which will

00:03:11.580 --> 00:03:18.480
also feature automatic tagging to clearly Mark AI generated art this is an

00:03:16.739 --> 00:03:23.879
interesting move at a time when other image platforms are Banning AI art but

00:03:21.540 --> 00:03:28.440
it's also interesting because deviantART creators will have the right to opt out

00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:33.300
of their art being used to train dream up as well as third-party data sets for

00:03:30.900 --> 00:03:37.800
other image generators which is good for artists and would be even more good if

00:03:35.700 --> 00:03:42.840
all deviantART content wasn't already opted in by default thankfully there's a

00:03:41.099 --> 00:03:47.400
super convenient Google form that will opt out your entire portfolio if you

00:03:45.900 --> 00:03:51.599
make it past a manual human review assuring you you have followed

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:55.560
deviantart's best practices and then wait 10 business days oh and you better

00:03:53.879 --> 00:04:00.720
fill it out now because the form States currently will be approving this ability

00:03:57.900 --> 00:04:05.040
for free which is corpo speak for it's about to not be free but hey if you

00:04:03.480 --> 00:04:10.920
don't meet the criteria or you're deathly afraid of Google forms

00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:13.379
I have Focus I just scare me you just

00:04:10.920 --> 00:04:17.220
need to add the no image AI tag to your submissions individually and if you've

00:04:15.540 --> 00:04:23.160
been using deviadart for years and have thousands of submissions

00:04:19.699 --> 00:04:25.020
one suggestion uh now it's time for

00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:29.100
quick bits brought to you by brilliant the Hands-On interactive way to learn

00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:33.600
stem topics it's like doing a secret handshake with Einstein and at the end

00:04:31.080 --> 00:04:36.780
you're smarter brilliant has thousands of courses with new topics to explore

00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:41.160
each month like computer science fundamentals use brilliant to augment

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:44.639
your college education or just use it to get smart because understanding even

00:04:42.960 --> 00:04:49.259
just the basics can help you troubleshoot all kinds of problems but

00:04:47.460 --> 00:04:53.460
if you need another reason the first 200 people that head to brilliant.org

00:04:50.820 --> 00:05:00.479
TechLink will get 20 off an annual premium subscription so go on Get Smart

00:04:57.960 --> 00:05:05.639
hey did you know in the UK quick bits are known as quick call yeah there's

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:10.860
less appetizing AMD launched their new epic Genoa server processors and there's

00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:18.360
18 different models oh with the flagship epic 9654 supporting

00:05:14.699 --> 00:05:20.160
96 cores AMD claimed that five servers

00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:26.100
powered by these big boys could handle the same load as 15 servers running

00:05:23.039 --> 00:05:28.919
Intel's last gen Platinum 8380 and use

00:05:26.100 --> 00:05:34.199
up to 54 less power is that where the 54 comes from it's not unlimited anymore

00:05:31.380 --> 00:05:38.759
God no meanwhile details on Intel's upcoming Sapphire rapid CPUs have leaked

00:05:36.539 --> 00:05:45.120
indicating they might have fewer cores and lower clock speeds for more money

00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:48.440
than AMD's Genoa so uh choke on that the

00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:48.440
spicy meatball team

00:05:48.900 --> 00:05:55.440
Google has stated it has evidence that three zero-day vulnerabilities found in

00:05:53.340 --> 00:05:59.400
newer Samsung smartphones were being exploited by a commercial surveillance

00:05:57.479 --> 00:06:03.660
vendor which allowed them to gain read and write privileges at the kernel level

00:06:01.380 --> 00:06:09.240
which they could use to access the device's data it does sound delicious

00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:12.780
I wish I had some kernel level exploits this isn't the only exploit to be

00:06:10.979 --> 00:06:16.860
Unearthed on Android this week either yesterday a video was posted showing a

00:06:14.820 --> 00:06:21.479
way to unlock a pixel in about a minute after inserting a pin locked SIM card I

00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:27.539
guess Apple's e-sim only North American iPhone was

00:06:23.220 --> 00:06:29.639
a good idea cook good boy uh oh wait the

00:06:27.539 --> 00:06:34.560
exploit has been patched already so no it's it's still quite silly if you

00:06:31.860 --> 00:06:37.860
manage to buy a PS5 at retail razer's got a great idea for how you can spend

00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:42.660
all that money you would have ended up paying a scalper The Wolverine V2 is a

00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:48.240
chunky PS5 controller in the style of the Xbox Elite V2 but for at least a

00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:52.620
hundred dollars more at 250 dollars that's what you pay for the RGB baby

00:06:50.039 --> 00:06:56.280
yeah that's worth half a console if you want the elite experience on your PS5

00:06:54.300 --> 00:07:00.360
for Less well Sony has a first party solution for

00:06:57.780 --> 00:07:04.139
two hundred dollars okay this seems expensive but it's a small price to pay

00:07:02.280 --> 00:07:09.419
to find out whether your problem is the controller or you know

00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:14.340
get good just grow you're just bad you're just there's nothing no one there's nothing

00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:18.000
you can do the steam deck has been the new hot commodity for a while but one

00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:22.500
company is trying to reduce the heat just a smidge unitec is launching a dock

00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:26.160
for the steam deck featuring a Thermal electric cooler they claim can reduce

00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:32.160
your deck's temperature by 20 degrees Celsius in five minutes plus you get a

00:07:29.340 --> 00:07:36.060
frontside USBC connector and an RGB fan for only thirty dollars more than the

00:07:34.080 --> 00:07:40.080
first party dock this isn't an ad or anything we just think that's pretty

00:07:37.919 --> 00:07:45.960
cool that's it's a steam dirt pretty cool pretty cool do robots scare you are

00:07:44.340 --> 00:07:49.380
you a stressed University student that doesn't need another source of anxiety

00:07:47.400 --> 00:07:53.520
at this moment in time not if the University of Texas has anything to say

00:07:51.060 --> 00:07:58.860
about it researchers at UT Austin will be sending autonomous robots across the

00:07:55.680 --> 00:08:02.280
campus for five years from now

00:07:58.860 --> 00:08:04.080
yes to study human robot relations a

00:08:02.280 --> 00:08:08.520
network and smartphone app will allow students to get free supplies delivered

00:08:06.180 --> 00:08:12.660
to them by the robot witness science in action as five people in lab coats watch

00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:16.740
you collect your delivery of of wipes among other things from a robot dog I'm

00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:20.520
learning and I want you to take the action of coming back on Monday for more

00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:23.699
Tech news I'm not a robot but I can still deliver the news right to your

00:08:21.900 --> 00:08:29.360
face without any scientist involvement at all we got rid of them a long time

00:08:25.620 --> 00:08:29.360
ago we don't need them anymore
