1
00:00:00,389 --> 00:00:04,150
- Tech news makes me feel fuzzy inside. It's not normal.

2
00:00:04,150 --> 00:00:08,060
I need a doctor. - [Man] Help. - Help me. As part of its status center event today,

3
00:00:08,060 --> 00:00:11,259
AMD announced plans to launch a new EPYC processor

4
00:00:11,259 --> 00:00:16,188
with code name Bergamo. Packed with a 128 cores in total.

5
00:00:16,188 --> 00:00:20,897
Which is just selfish. Some people don't have any cores at all.

6
00:00:20,897 --> 00:00:24,188
- [Man] Come on. - But these chips won't be powering your gaming rig.

7
00:00:24,188 --> 00:00:27,230
They're geared more towards data center, cloud computing

8
00:00:27,230 --> 00:00:30,269
with special power efficiency and scaling features.

9
00:00:30,269 --> 00:00:34,055
True to the leaks, AMD is also going to be launching a Genoa.

10
00:00:34,055 --> 00:00:37,940
Genoa, Genoa, Genoa. I'm pretty sure it's Genoa, isn't it?

11
00:00:37,940 --> 00:00:44,110
- [Man] Genoa. - Genoa, CPU with 96 cores. Which is obviously nothing to sneeze at.

12
00:00:44,110 --> 00:00:47,132
Man, I've been sneezing all day, but I can't sneeze at that one.

13
00:00:47,132 --> 00:00:50,374
- [Man] You can't sneeze on demand. - That should be out next year.

14
00:00:50,374 --> 00:00:56,162
With the beefy 128 core model appearing around late 2022 or early 2023.

15
00:00:56,162 --> 00:01:01,595
Meanwhile, gamers are stuck scrounging for extra cores in the dirt like an animal.

16
00:01:01,595 --> 00:01:05,936
Heartless. - [Man] Help them. - Although we just got a couple of new chips from Apple

17
00:01:05,936 --> 00:01:09,276
for the new lineup of MacBook Pros, a new report indicates

18
00:01:09,276 --> 00:01:14,155
that Apple will be launching its own 3 nanometer chips sometime in 2023.

19
00:01:14,155 --> 00:01:18,326
How fitting. This is a big deal. Considering Apple's current leading edge chips

20
00:01:18,326 --> 00:01:23,273
are built on a five nanometer process. And this year is M1 Max and M1 Pro

21
00:01:23,273 --> 00:01:27,655
have already shown relatively impressive performance. Despite the fact that the CPU cores

22
00:01:27,655 --> 00:01:30,676
aren't very much different from the M1 they replaced.

23
00:01:30,676 --> 00:01:35,104
Using a smaller process means that Apple may pack as many as four dyes

24
00:01:35,104 --> 00:01:38,687
and a total of 40 cores onto just one chip.

25
00:01:40,446 --> 00:01:44,371
The size of an M1 chips. Oh yeah, that's gonna be rough.

26
00:01:44,371 --> 00:01:48,344
The iPhone is also expected to move on to the 3 nanometer process by 2023,

27
00:01:48,344 --> 00:01:53,925
leaving 2 nanometers for those gamers scrounging in the dirt to try and find something.

28
00:01:53,925 --> 00:01:57,257
Anything. - [Man] Who are gamers? - The gamers. - [Man] Help them.

29
00:01:57,257 --> 00:02:00,704
- Think of the gamers. Thanks Apple. Good luck guys. Good luck.

30
00:02:00,704 --> 00:02:04,626
- [Man] Tim help. - Tim Apple doesn't care about you. He never cared.

31
00:02:04,626 --> 00:02:08,783
And did you notice your new Pixel 6 isn't charging as quickly as you expected.

32
00:02:08,783 --> 00:02:12,564
you aren't alone. As testing performed by Android authority has shown

33
00:02:12,564 --> 00:02:16,784
that the Pixel 6 isn't using the full potential at Google's own 30 watt charger,

34
00:02:16,784 --> 00:02:20,685
which isn't even included in the box. And sells separately for 25 bucks.

35
00:02:20,685 --> 00:02:24,505
They make you buy a charger and then make it suck?

36
00:02:24,505 --> 00:02:29,915
To be clear, even topping out at 22 watts. The phone does indeed get from zero to 50% charge

37
00:02:29,915 --> 00:02:35,754
in about half an hour, consistent with Google's advertising. But after that power delivery drops precipitously.

38
00:02:35,754 --> 00:02:39,921
And it takes nearly two hours to go from 0 to 100.

39
00:02:40,765 --> 00:02:44,570
Google hasn't yet commented. Presumably because the only thing

40
00:02:44,570 --> 00:02:49,048
they could actually say would be, "Oh (beep) you found that?"

41
00:02:49,048 --> 00:02:52,333
(man giggles) - [Man] We thought we hid it.

42
00:02:52,333 --> 00:02:56,298
- The three whole watts. - [Man] You want another phone? - Now it's time for Quick Bits,

43
00:02:56,298 --> 00:03:00,345
brought to you by Vessi Footwear. Known for being lightweight, comfortable,

44
00:03:00,345 --> 00:03:04,878
and most importantly waterproof. They just released their Everyday Move shoes

00:03:04,878 --> 00:03:08,872
featuring enhanced breathability and added support. Perfect for the adventurous

46
00:03:08,872 --> 00:03:12,414
or those looking for something sportier.

47
00:03:12,414 --> 00:03:16,393
(man laughs) - With a heel pull tab, vegan suede lace cages,

48
00:03:16,393 --> 00:03:20,291
extra mid-sole cushioning, and the same waterproof Diamond Tex Technology,

49
00:03:20,291 --> 00:03:24,683
you'll want to wear them everywhere. Keep your feet dry and save 25 bucks off

50
00:03:24,683 --> 00:03:29,042
with our offer code techlinked at Vessi.com/techlinked.

51
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:32,189
You have made it to the Quick Bits.

52
00:03:32,189 --> 00:03:35,837
Congratulations, wanderer. - [Man] I'm so thirsty.

53
00:03:35,837 --> 00:03:40,303
- We might finally have some kind of answers as to why we didn't get that rumored SwitchPro this year

54
00:03:40,303 --> 00:03:44,315
and instead settled for a model with an OLED screen and not much else.

55
00:03:44,315 --> 00:03:47,423
It did have a kickstand. It's a better kickstand.

56
00:03:47,423 --> 00:03:52,131
- [Man] I love that kickstand. - Nintendo has said that the global chip shortage is slowing its hardware development.

57
00:03:52,131 --> 00:03:56,171
Like they need any global chip shortage to slow their hardware development.

58
00:03:56,171 --> 00:04:00,396
Nintendo. But has also confirmed it is working on new hardware.

59
00:04:00,396 --> 00:04:03,556
So don't worry. The company assures you the Switch 2 will come out

60
00:04:03,556 --> 00:04:06,056
sometime before the year 2100.

61
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,526
- [Man] My kids will love that. - Yeah, maybe they'll... Yeah.

62
00:04:10,526 --> 00:04:14,223
Maybe they'll do the Hanafuda cards again, or maybe love hotels.

63
00:04:14,223 --> 00:04:17,440
That was the thing that Nintendo did. Did you know that?

64
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,545
- [Man] We'll get into different businesses? - Yeah. If you're still running Windows 7, 8 or 8.1

65
00:04:21,545 --> 00:04:24,793
and use Microsoft OneDrive cloud storage service,

66
00:04:24,793 --> 00:04:30,796
be advised that OneDrive for those operating systems will stop syncing with the cloud in March of next year.

67
00:04:30,796 --> 00:04:35,059
You can still do this through a web browser, but you can also pull carrots out of the ground

68
00:04:35,059 --> 00:04:38,299
with your teeth. It's just nicer to cook them in a stew

69
00:04:38,299 --> 00:04:41,658
or something, you know. - [Man] Boil 'em, mash 'em. - Stop punishing yourselves.

70
00:04:41,658 --> 00:04:45,201
- [Man] Put them in a stew. - Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.

71
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:48,344
- [Man] Nasty taters. - A new study published in Nature Communications

72
00:04:48,344 --> 00:04:53,084
indicates that renewable energy sources might be more feasible for providing large scale power

73
00:04:53,084 --> 00:04:57,055
than previously thought. The paper indicates that 85%

74
00:04:57,055 --> 00:05:01,484
of the United States energy consumption could be handled by wind and solar only.

75
00:05:01,484 --> 00:05:04,872
Once the other 15% is made up of earth and water power

76
00:05:04,872 --> 00:05:08,223
legend says Captain Planet will appear. - [Man] And kill us all.

77
00:05:08,223 --> 00:05:11,874
- Well you forgot heart. - Is that actually-

78
00:05:11,874 --> 00:05:17,285
- Yeah, it's earth wind, water, fire, heart - [Man] I should have made an Avatar joke.

79
00:05:17,285 --> 00:05:20,509
Oops. - Walmart has officially begun using driverless trucks

80
00:05:20,509 --> 00:05:25,007
to deliver packages. The service is currently only available in Bentonville Arkansas,

81
00:05:25,007 --> 00:05:28,645
where a Walmart is headquartered. And runs between a fulfillment center

82
00:05:28,645 --> 00:05:32,125
in a Walmart branded grocery store. The move has sadly

83
00:05:32,125 --> 00:05:35,625
run all of the mom and pop driverless truck businesses out of town.

84
00:05:35,625 --> 00:05:39,483
- [Man] We've been doing this for 40 years. - That's just how Walmart rolls.

85
00:05:39,483 --> 00:05:42,545
- [Man] 100 years and now this.

86
00:05:42,545 --> 00:05:46,234
And from the in case you missed it file.

87
00:05:46,234 --> 00:05:51,304
McDonald's and IBM have announced a partnership to further McDonald's foray into AI powered order taking

88
00:05:51,304 --> 00:05:55,475
at drive-throughs. As if order taking at drive-throughs

89
00:05:55,475 --> 00:05:59,605
wasn't already arduous enough. The golden arches tested it earlier this year

90
00:05:59,605 --> 00:06:02,926
in a few locations in Chicago. And while it did make things faster,

91
00:06:02,926 --> 00:06:06,433
human employees did have to intervene a little too often.

92
00:06:06,433 --> 00:06:09,886
So McDonald's is hoping IBM can help cut down on the error rate

93
00:06:09,886 --> 00:06:14,806
as screaming into a drive-through speaker is already annoying enough without having to convince an AI,

94
00:06:14,806 --> 00:06:18,834
not to take your job too. - [Man] I can drive that better than you.

95
00:06:18,834 --> 00:06:24,396
- Hello, welcome to McDonald's. I see your job is driverless car driver.

96
00:06:24,396 --> 00:06:27,995
(man laughs) And now it's time for them to take my job as the video host,

97
00:06:27,995 --> 00:06:31,284
because the video is over. Come back on Wednesday for more tech news

98
00:06:31,284 --> 00:06:36,635
and seek medical attention for any abnormal feelings of fuzziness in your abdomen.

99
00:06:36,635 --> 00:06:38,474
- [Man] Out. - It's happening again.
