00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,160
tech news videos are awesome but they're even awesomer when they're sponsored by

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:10,080
lastpass because this one is so they call wednesday hump day apparently and

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:15,040
it looks like NVIDIA is finally going to get over the hump and drop its next-gen

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:18,480
touring graphics cards for consumers through a teaser video entitled before

5
00:00:17,279 --> 00:00:22,880
the game NVIDIA has teased the arrival of the new

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:28,320
gpus on the 20th of august the top end card will almost certainly be called the

7
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:29,760
GeForce rtx 2080 with the r indicating

8
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:34,719
that the card will have better support for ray tracing including microsoft's

9
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:36,800
new directx ray tracing API it isn't

10
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:41,600
clear yet though if gtx branded cards will still exist alongside rtx perhaps

11
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:47,680
as a stack of lower end products without the extra ray tracing support but no

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,760
word yet on pricing the 2070 2060 and so

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:54,960
on are expected in the months following i'm still confused about that slogan

14
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:57,680
though is it b for the game like not

15
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,840
against games or is it b for the game

16
00:00:58,879 --> 00:01:04,000
like dedicate your very soul to the game

17
00:01:02,559 --> 00:01:07,439
i don't think it's for i don't think it's before the game the rapper that

18
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:10,960
doesn't make any sense if you normally enjoy TechLinked or anything else on

19
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:15,119
youtube on a smartphone you might want to check out a new web page from youtube

20
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:18,720
called device report the streaming giant has set up the page to give users a list

21
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:23,360
of smartphones that it calls signature devices according to youtube

22
00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:26,720
these phones have undergone internal testing for reliability and performance

23
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:30,400
and also support a number of features that are prerequisites

24
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:35,600
prerequisites for inclusion in the program

25
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:40,640
prerequisites so these

26
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:43,040
features are 4k decoding HDR support 360

27
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:46,640
degree video high frame rates the use of modern codecs and a flare for the

28
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:51,119
sophisticated things in life unsurprisingly flagship devices such as

29
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:56,640
the google pixel 2 samsung galaxy s9 and lg v30 made the list but no iphones are

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,920
anywhere to be found which is strange because if any phone is a flair for

31
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:04,399
fanciness it's iphones Intel has another black eye

32
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:07,680
when it comes to processor security as it still tries to deal with fixing the

33
00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:11,440
spectre and meltdown bugs that made headlines earlier this year a new

34
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:15,680
vulnerability called foreshadow has reared its ugly head such fun names

35
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:19,440
for these super dangerous security problems

36
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:23,680
the next one will be called like mooncake or something like spectre and

37
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:27,680
meltdown foreshadow exploits a predictive feature called speculative

38
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:32,640
execution but foreshadow is a little different in that it can attack a secure

39
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:36,800
enclave which are parts of the CPU that are separated from the rest of the chip

40
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:41,040
so that any malware affecting the os can't touch sensitive data or code

41
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,120
although the issue can be resolved somewhat with microcode updates it

42
00:02:42,959 --> 00:02:48,720
appears that unsurprisingly it'll come with a performance hit the good news is

43
00:02:47,519 --> 00:02:53,200
that if you're in the market for a new CPU Intel's new 9th gen parts should fix

44
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:57,840
the problem when they come out later this year although technically if this were a

45
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:01,519
thriller movie that could be foreshadowing for them not fixing the

46
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:05,519
problem speaking of quick things it's time for quick bits sponsored by

47
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,800

49
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:16,480
atrocious reset password email especially when you thought your

50
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:21,040
password was so great and now it's gone it's just gone look

51
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,560

find out more whoa where'd my hair go

57
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:50,879
anyways it's time for quick bits the uk's advertising standards authority has

58
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,879
called amazon out for marking products with one day delivery and then failing

59
00:03:52,959 --> 00:03:59,439
to actually deliver them in one day amazon clarified that it means one day

60
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,959
after dispatch but i'm sure that's not much comfort to those who are kept

61
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:07,599
waiting for their toilet paper shipment and who need help with a dispatch of

62
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:11,840
their own potty humor a new law has been signed

63
00:04:10,159 --> 00:04:15,760
that limits the number of drivers that can work for ride-sharing companies like

64
00:04:13,519 --> 00:04:19,759
uber or lyft in new york city it's the latest in a long-running battle between

65
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:23,199
ride-sharing apps and taxi services but if it becomes too difficult to hail a

66
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:26,880
ride i hear that watching the rats scurry around the subway can be pretty

67
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,440
entertaining it's not gonna help you get anywhere

68
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:35,840
though john wrote the script that sounds fun though 5g is getting

69
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:39,120
close to showing up on smartphones as samsung has recently released a new

70
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:44,800
modem for mobile devices that can achieve speeds of up to six gigabits per

71
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:49,440
second whoa whoa but even if your carrier won't support 5g right off the

72
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:55,040
bat the modem can still get up to over 1.5 gigabits over lte advanced although

73
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:58,479
real world speeds will probably be a fair bit slower it looks like we're

74
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:03,280
getting closer to the incredibly important dream of snapchat in 4k that

75
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,880
sounded like sarcasm the market for video games in china appears to be

76
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,960
stagnating as the authorities in beijing haven't approved any new games for

77
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:14,639
months now a trend which could continue as there is currently a freeze on new

78
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:18,080
approvals caused by a reorganization within the chinese government the good

79
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:22,320
old people's republic screens games for what it considers subversive content

80
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:26,400
before they can be published and while some babies are thrown out with a bath

81
00:05:23,919 --> 00:05:29,919
water they're also opposed to loot boxes so maybe they could find some common

82
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:34,960
ground with western gamers over the whole battlefront 2 debacle

83
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:38,320
and anhoyzer boosh i think that's how you say it is

84
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:43,039
deploying a number of wi-fi enabled fridges containing free bud light around

85
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,639
the cleveland ohio area which are

86
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:50,880
kept chained up by internet connected magnets the fridges are only unlocked if

87
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:55,120
the cleveland browns can find a way to win a game

88
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:59,120
and wow you guys got that joke and if you aren't an nfl fan the cruel joke

89
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:02,880
here is that the long-suffering browns have only managed four victories in the

90
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:06,639
last three seasons and that's not very many

91
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:12,639
is it sports and that's the tech news join us back

92
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:15,520
here on friday for more great taste with

93
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:17,840
only 110 calories per episode you'll be saying

94
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,639
give me some of that news

95
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,960
that was an ad-lib see you later
