1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,920
oh uh did some did someone ask for some tech news in here I I could have sworn I

2
00:00:06,279 --> 00:00:12,960
was it you was

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:17,439
it why aren't you saying anything turns out that little chomecast outage we

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:22,880
briefly covered in a quick bit on Monday was a bigger deal than it seemed as

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:28,000
today marked the fourth day owners were unable to use their second gen

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,080
chromecasts and chomecast audio devices

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,800
Google quickly promised users they were working on a fix when all this news

8
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:39,120
broke though they still haven't figured it out so they've issued an apology

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:42,960
which is great I'll forward that over to my friends who messaged me looking for

10
00:00:41,079 --> 00:00:47,520
answers after probably spending hours troubleshooting their parents chomecast

11
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:52,960
look at their faces that I won't show to you for privacy re imagine it Google

12
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:58,719
also helpfully instructed users to not factory reset their devices a day after

13
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:04,600
most of them probably already tried that especially this person who says Google

14
00:01:01,039 --> 00:01:06,000
told them to factory reset it that's how

15
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:12,040
Google figured out it was bad sacrificial lamb but why why all of this

16
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:15,479
pain well according to Reddit user madh

17
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:18,479
Hatter 369 the issue is most definitely

18
00:01:15,479 --> 00:01:22,520
due to one of the chomecast certificates

19
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:25,880
having an expiry date of March 9th 2025

20
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:28,560
the day all of this went down ah if only

21
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:33,240
there was some way to predict this uh to be fair to Google though the second gen

22
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:37,040
chomecast launched 10 years ago and it is a Google product at the time they

23
00:01:35,759 --> 00:01:40,560
probably thought they'd let it live a few years at most before taking it out

24
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:46,840
back themselves hey you want to hear about tech that's working great though

25
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:50,079
AMD's ryzen 9950 x3d which launched

26
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:52,119
yesterday for $700 making it the most

27
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:56,880
expensive mainstream processor on the market right now but reviewers are

28
00:01:54,560 --> 00:02:02,039
making it look like it's also the best on the market marrying the gaming

29
00:01:59,039 --> 00:02:05,399
performance of the 8 core ryzen 7 9800

30
00:02:02,039 --> 00:02:09,800
x3d with productivity chops that beat

31
00:02:05,399 --> 00:02:13,000
the 16 core 9950 X non-3d in Jake's

32
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:15,640
shortcircuit video which is not a review

33
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:19,760
okay he's just vibing the 9800 x3d pulled slightly ahead in games on

34
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:25,879
average with other outlets finding similar results but the 9950 x3d was a

35
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:31,840
clear leader in multicore optimized applications except apparently for

36
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:35,000
cinebench where the Intel core Ultra 9

37
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,840
285k randomly pulled ahead get out of

38
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:44,840
there you're not supposed to that's not sit down now AMD also launched the ryzen

39
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,959
9 9900 x3d yesterday for 600 bucks but

40
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:52,120
as Leo from kit Guru points out this seems to be another example of Team

41
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,200
Red's tactic of launching a Fall Guy

42
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:59,159
product to emphasize how good of a deal the more expensive one is which works

43
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:05,239
great if you want customers to like you but not too too much they can be clingy

44
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,120
speaking of six CPUs reviews also went

45
00:03:05,239 --> 00:03:13,400
up for Apple's new M4 powered MacBook Air with reviewers praising yet another

46
00:03:10,879 --> 00:03:18,680
Apple s so that can run circles around basically any Windows laptop in its

47
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:21,120
class without using any fans for cooling

48
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:29,360
it's embarrassing and it makes me feel bad although hold up PC mag had the Acer

49
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:33,080
Swift ai14 powered by a ryzen AI 9 365

50
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,120
beat the M4 MacBook Air in cinebench

51
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:39,920
there's that weird cinebench result again either something's wonky with that

52
00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:44,200
bench mark or this laptop did better cuz it has AI in its name it's enough for

53
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,519
investors reviews were similarly positive for the other chip

54
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:53,000
configurations Apple launched for the Mac Studio the M3 Ultra is being hailed

55
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:58,560
as the most powerful s so apples ever launched mostly because of its 32 CPU

56
00:03:55,599 --> 00:04:04,799
cores and support for up to 512 GB of unified RAM the also just launched M4

57
00:04:01,959 --> 00:04:10,400
Max has higher single core performance but Max is out at 16 CPU cores and 256

58
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:15,840
gigs of RAM but Apple surprisingly improved on something else this week

59
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:20,720
their receptiveness to criticism the company added a disclaimer on their

60
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:26,320
iPhone 16 series product pages saying that series cool AI update will be

61
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:31,320
coming later after the company was criticized for continuing to advertise

62
00:04:28,840 --> 00:04:36,360
AI Siri as if she was in the room with us right now if she was she'd probably

63
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,639
be going around handing out printed Map Quest directions that include driving

64
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,280
through a lake or something it would be very obvious how about instead you use a

65
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:47,800
product that actually works like our sponsor Squarespace the all-in-one

77
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:42,319
that you could if you just tried a little harder you know just just o

00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:47,120
lookie here onleaks has provided Android headlines with exclusive renders of

79
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:51,520
Google's upcoming pixel 10 featuring three rear cameras a privilege

80
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:56,759
previously reserved for only the pro tier pixel models but I'll do you one

81
00:05:53,919 --> 00:06:02,400
better said YouTuber Alexis Garza who posted a short showing the pixel 9A a

82
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:07,000
which is expected to arrive later this month it's little sausage shaped camera

83
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:12,880
module looks kind of perfect next to the bag of wet sausages Alexis was holding

84
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:18,759
which I think I'll soon learn are not sausages but rather another kind of wet

85
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:23,800
oblong snack of some kind now's your chance I'm going to

86
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,960
check the comments netic Labs has sold

87
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:32,039
the IP rights and development teams behind location-based games Pokémon go

88
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:34,759
Pikmin Blom and Monster Hunter now to

Saudi Investment Company scopely for $3.5 billion scopely also owns Monopoly

90
00:06:39,319 --> 00:06:46,199
go which is kind of perfect Niantic said the move will ensure these games have

91
00:06:43,599 --> 00:06:51,120
the long-term support needed to be forever games that players can continue

92
00:06:48,599 --> 00:06:55,759
to be obsessed with on their deathbed and into the Beyond turns out you can

93
00:06:54,080 --> 00:07:01,879
take it with you Google Deep Mind has announced its latest Gemma 3 smallish

94
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:07,039
model which it says is the best model you can run on a single GPU although

95
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:11,120
they mean a single NVIDIA h100 accelerator not the gaming gpus that you

96
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:16,120
can't buy right now Google also announced Gemini robotics a suite of

97
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:22,240
multimodal models that can enable greater dexterity in robots so they can

98
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:24,160
fold origami zip things up struggle to

00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:29,520
clean up your desk as you actively make it messy and even follow directions when

100
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:33,599
told to slam dunk a tiny baset basketball without being trained for

101
00:07:31,479 --> 00:07:37,400
that situation specifically although maybe it should have been because with

102
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:44,080
that little gentle drop this robot wasn't exactly channeling LeBron okay so

103
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:49,159
Nintendo switch emulator citen has dropped a new update adding multiplayer

104
00:07:46,479 --> 00:07:53,159
support in the 2025 equivalent of a neanderthal heading out to hunt a

105
00:07:50,879 --> 00:07:57,319
mammoth with nothing but his bare hands sure the citen team has a notice on

106
00:07:55,240 --> 00:08:01,639
their website saying they don't condone piracy which will probably make

107
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:05,159
Nintendo's lawyers hesitate just long enough for the devs to realize they've

108
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:10,520
made a mistake but what a thrill and a man with

109
00:08:07,919 --> 00:08:15,479
an artificial heart implant survived a 100 days outside of hospital before he

110
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:19,680
was able to get a donated heart successfully implanted according to the

111
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:25,520
artificial heart maker Australian company bacor the device called the

112
00:08:23,039 --> 00:08:31,360
total artificial heart is made of metal and uses a magnetic constantly powered

113
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:33,440
rotor to push blood throughout the body

114
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:39,080
which results in its user having no pulse rendering Untold numbers of Love

115
00:08:36,399 --> 00:08:44,279
song lyrics about heartbeats meaningless is the trade-off really worth it yeah

116
00:08:41,959 --> 00:08:48,360
probably it's also incredibly worth it to come back here on Friday for more
