1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:05,920
whoa oh what are you guys up to

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:11,360
tech news ha far out past the tech news dude

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:17,359
what timeline are we in answer the confusing one because apple

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:19,039
and google have apparently joined forces

5
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:23,199
the two web giants are developing technology that can alert people if they

6
00:00:21,119 --> 00:00:28,640
have come in contact with others who later get diagnosed with covid19 it's a

7
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:32,079
process called contact close

8
00:00:29,599 --> 00:00:36,719
it's a process called contact tracing and it usually involves simply asking

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,760
someone about their past activities okay

10
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,879
the new method uses bluetooth because you can't just straight up talk to

11
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:46,640
people anymore you're in quarantine okay you gotta use good technology see our

12
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:51,360
phones are constantly sending out little pings storing anonymized data about what

13
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:55,199
other devices are in close proximity once those other devices bluetooth

14
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:58,960
signatures are cataloged this method could tell whether we had been close to

15
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:03,039
someone that was infected with coven researchers at mit are working on a

16
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:08,320
similar system as well so they might join apple and google's unholy union

17
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:13,360
i mean if you needed any more evidence that were in the apocalypse

18
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:15,920
google and apple and mit all we're gonna

19
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:19,680
they all hate each other and my blooper t stop it's not a thing stop trying to

20
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:25,680
make it a thing google's busy doing other things in addition to cooperating with their sworn

21
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:30,799
rival in their latest messaging strategy twist the text-based hangouts chat and

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:36,400
video focused hangouts meet are being rebranded to google chat and google meat

23
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:41,840
now this isn't the same consumer version of hangouts that has existed since 2013

24
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:44,320
which was itself a rebranding of g chat

25
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:48,079
if you're not a g suite business user hangouts will still exist

26
00:01:46,399 --> 00:01:51,280
for some reason i mean it kind of makes sense google has

27
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,799
said they'll discontinue hangouts for a long time now so it just made the

28
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:58,560
confusion worse to have the brand name hanging around if this is called

29
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,240
google me then what are they going to call it when they acquire beyond me

30
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:09,119
have you tried our new google meet

31
00:02:07,119 --> 00:02:13,040
the move follows an increased emphasis on video calling by a bunch of companies

32
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:16,560
during the pandemic microsoft just added custom backgrounds to teams to compete

33
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:20,480
with zoom although it looks like they won't have to try so hard since zoom is

34
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:24,800
being banned in some places due to its security problems pretty sad that we

35
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,520
can't hang out anymore james but i guess we'll find a way

36
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:33,519
you left our carpool i did and talk about shooting the messenger

37
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:38,560
animal crossing new horizons has been abruptly pulled from retailers in china

38
00:02:36,239 --> 00:02:42,480
after the game was used by pro hong kong protesters as a way to demonstrate while

39
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:47,360
remaining inside why didn't they ban blizzard

40
00:02:45,519 --> 00:02:51,360
we'll talk about that later protesters have posted messages reading free hong

41
00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:56,560
kong and various images of hong kong governor carrie lam and chinese

42
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,560
president winnie the xi jinpoo

43
00:02:56,959 --> 00:03:02,959
pin duo duo and taobao have both pulled the game from sale and although it's not

44
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:06,800
clear if the reason for this was a government directive it's

45
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:10,800
i mean it's it's these guys

46
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:15,680

00:03:54,319 --> 00:04:01,200
bits i don't know what i was thinking when i wrote that google is reportedly going to

58
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:04,959
have to start paying french publishers for linking to their content after a

59
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:11,280
ruling by france's competition watchdog

60
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:13,680
the ato rote de la concoraos

61
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:17,040
okay if this model is adopted by other eu countries and eventually north

62
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:21,600
america it could mean a massive restructuring of the way the internet

63
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:26,320
economy works and this channel would might be screwed

64
00:04:23,199 --> 00:04:28,160
to be to be to be frank mercy references

65
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,680
to a high performance GPU have been spotted in documents published by Intel

66
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:36,800
and it started a round of rumor-mongering about whether this could

67
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:40,080
be Intel's high-end gaming GPU we saw a

68
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:42,320
z-GPU at ces but it was positively weak

69
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:46,000
it appears that low power model could have just been paving the way for a high

70
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:50,960
power model and that's the one we actually want so hurry it up Intel

71
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:55,440
i want to see jensen tremble in his leather the Ethernet technology

72
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:59,600
consortium has published specifications for the new 800 gigabit Ethernet

73
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:04,639
standard if you have no context for what that means 800 gigabits a second

74
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,880
translates to a hundred gigabytes a second

75
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:12,639
that's too much actually i'd like to take a step back can we can we slow down here it's just the specs so far and this

76
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,080
tech probably won't be in consumer products for like

77
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:20,800
a decade so put your pants back on for now and then take them off again because

78
00:05:18,479 --> 00:05:25,759
this smart toilet has sensors that will be able to detect health issues and

79
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:30,639
identify you from your unique this is not i did not make up this word okay

80
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,919
anal print they didn't make that up

81
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:38,800
i know well they didn't make it up they're doing that for years

82
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,440
so we can thank salvador dali for the idea he's the one who picked him up with

83
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:45,280
that word apparently he's a freak okay get that out of your

84
00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:49,440
mind we'll cleanse it with the news of an engineered enzyme that can break

85
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:53,520
plastic down into its component materials which can then be used to

86
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:57,440
create new plastic items do you like that don't you james i love life you

87
00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:01,520
