1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:06,560
oh my god it's actually happening guys

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:09,840
the tech news it's here okay okay okay waiting okay

3
00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:14,000
apple is facing two lawsuits in california concerning apple id linked

4
00:00:11,759 --> 00:00:18,000
purchases the first one was filed by matthew price who allegedly violated

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:22,640
apple's terms and conditions so apple terminated his apple id cutting him off

6
00:00:20,240 --> 00:00:26,960
from the nearly 25 thousand dollars worth of content he had purchased on his

7
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:33,280
account what apps are you buying just for fun the second lawsuit is a proposed

8
00:00:29,439 --> 00:00:35,280
class action led by one david andino so

9
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:39,520
close to being arduino who's arguing that apple's use of the word buy and

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:44,320
purchase on digital platforms is legally problematic since the buyers of content

11
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:49,280
would lose access to it if apple decided to remove it or remote revoke the user's

12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:53,680
apple ids like they did deport matthew price

13
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,120
our friend there's a price to pay apple motioned to have the second lawsuit

14
00:00:55,280 --> 00:01:00,879
dismissed but a federal judge rejected the motion

15
00:00:58,879 --> 00:01:05,439
kicked it down a well meaning that well guys as a society we're gonna have to

16
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:10,720
talk about what it means to really own things in the digital age thankfully i

17
00:01:08,479 --> 00:01:15,200
already have that answer and it's nfts shop riley they're the future

18
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:19,680
youtube has shown off a big old custom designed video transcoding processor

19
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:25,040
they call the video transcoding unit or bcu another initialism for your life the

20
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:29,520
vcu is a dual processor PCIe card that can transcode up to 20 to 33 times

21
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:33,200
faster than their previous setup using traditional servers and it's supposed to

22
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:37,600
streamline youtube's ability to deliver videos at multiple different resolutions

23
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:42,000
it makes sense that that youtube also rolled out today new video quality

24
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:46,479
controls in the mobile app instead of picking just a video resolution directly

25
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:50,399
users are now prompted to select auto higher picture quality or data saver

26
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,920
options which will pick an appropriate playback resolution for you you don't

27
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:57,920
know what you want your life's so easy now there's also an advanced option

28
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:02,000
which does still let you pick a specific resolution but now it's an extra step to

29
00:01:59,759 --> 00:02:06,399
get there so frankly i don't want that anymore it's not worth it google here's

30
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,640
a cod that i'd like to see the rtx 3080ti

31
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:14,480
yowza there's pretty much no more room to be skeptical about this monster as

32
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:18,160
the GPU itself has been photographed in the wild while its full specifications

33
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:24,720
haven't been confirmed it will almost certainly have 10 240 cuda cores and 12

34
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:29,520
gigabytes of gddr6x memory it's reportedly set to come out sometimes in

35
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:33,360
may with the rtx 3070 ti rumored to follow in june

36
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,959
sometimes in may that happens you know it can be colder than april and kind of

37
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:40,400
a sad development it seems like much of the speculation about these cards

38
00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:44,959
performance is focused on mining power rather than gaming power gp i like to

39
00:02:43,519 --> 00:02:48,879
call it but maybe they'll launch with NVIDIA's new and improved mining limiter

40
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:53,200
that's most definitely unhackable and won't be bypassed in a mere number of

41
00:02:50,959 --> 00:02:53,200
days

42
00:02:54,400 --> 00:03:00,480

50
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:35,280
consumes no reduce reuse recycle yes you're right go

james use quick bits james

52
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,000
are you redditer claiming to work for canada computers blew the whistle

53
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:43,840
yesterday on the retailer's alleged practice of withholding graphics cards

54
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,360
from willing buyers unless they purchased it as part of a complete

55
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:50,799
custom build the employee had screenshots of the company's internal

56
00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:55,920
system to back up their claims but the post has since been deleted hopefully cc

57
00:03:54,159 --> 00:04:00,959
didn't find out who the whistleblower was cc meaning canada computers and not

58
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:05,280
carpal critics our movie podcast because if this is true then they're

59
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:09,840
pulling a real ncix here and i don't mean giving a young double ear pierce

60
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:14,640
tech nerd a platform to drop things on on camera i wish i don't mean that i

61
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:18,160
mean the bad way qnap devices are being actively attacked by ransomware called q

62
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:22,560
locker clocker which locks user files in a

63
00:04:20,479 --> 00:04:26,080
password-protected 7-zip archive unless they pay

64
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:29,759
money qnap says that if you haven't been infected yet update your device software

65
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:34,080
and never go on the internet again unless you want to pay money some cool

66
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:38,000
space news today spacex has delivered another payload of astronauts to the

67
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:44,080
international space station using the crew dragon module and a reused falcon 9

68
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:46,240
rocket so i guess it works

69
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:51,680
meanwhile nasa's perseverance rover used an experimental module called moxie or

70
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,759
mars oxygen in-situ resource utilization

71
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:58,960
experiment pretty sure they got the word first to produce five grams of oxygen

72
00:04:57,199 --> 00:05:03,520
from the carbon dioxide in mars atmosphere that's about ten minutes of

73
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:08,080
breathable air for an astronaut in space yeah you know well on a planet

74
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:12,960
if they're if they're like chill not hyperventilate not hyperventilated ceo

75
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,639
of encrypted chat app signal moxie there's that word again marlin spike

76
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:21,680
claims to have hacked celebrate a software tool used by the fbi to hack

77
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:25,840
into encrypted iphones or phones generally but mostly marlon spike says

78
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:29,680
celebrate contains code that is apparently the intellectual property of

79
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:34,720
apple potentially getting celebrate into legal trouble in addition to the shame

80
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:38,240
of being a hacking tool that got hacked no one wants to be in that i guess they

81
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:43,520
shouldn't have said they cracked signals encryption since that seems to be what

82
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:47,759
gave moxie his moxie in the first place maps him all in spite

83
00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:52,720
yeah the famous wait till you meet his friend hotspot

84
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:56,960
and the entire university of minnesota has been banned from contributing code

85
00:05:54,560 --> 00:06:01,600
to the Linux kernel after a phd student submitted patches with known security

86
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:06,639
flaws as an experiment well i hope it was worth it smart guy or gal now you

87
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:10,720
have to explain this to the whole school in front of everyone probably naked i've

88
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:14,560
seen the 80s movies or at least the 0.5 who are going to

89
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,840
submit code to the Linux kernel it's time to submit to the limits of space

90
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,960
time and end this episode come back on monday for more tech news and stick

91
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,840
around for the next five seconds to see Linus sebastian

92
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,919
hey Linus when are you gonna host TechLinked again
