1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,379
you just can't stop the tech news you know trust me I've tried it's like the

2
00:00:04,380 --> 00:00:12,059
train in GTA 5. Tech news has no breaks GPU prices may have been going down a

3
00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:18,060
bit recently but demand for those sweet gaming graphics cards is still Sky High

4
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:19,859
according to experts on the economy a

5
00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:24,300
situation we're reminded of thanks to the seizure of over 5000 XFX graphics

6
00:00:22,439 --> 00:00:28,920
cards by Chinese Customs officials strangely it wasn't some shady sculptors

7
00:00:27,180 --> 00:00:34,020
trying to smuggle cards over the Border in an attempt to avoid import duties it

8
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:38,880
was apparently the Chinese branch of XFX themselves the

9
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:43,020
5840 cards were higher end models apparently worth around 3 million

10
00:00:40,739 --> 00:00:48,780
dollars together but they were improperly labeled as low end ones which

11
00:00:45,300 --> 00:00:50,579
would have saved XFX China some money I

12
00:00:48,780 --> 00:00:55,079
miss the days when these kinds of busts were about drugs or diamonds but gpus

13
00:00:52,820 --> 00:01:01,079
that's crossing the line it's a little sad in other FX news AMD's Fidelity FX

14
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:06,180
super resolution up scaling technology has been playing second fiddlehead

15
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,220
NVIDIA's dlss since it launched but that

16
00:01:06,180 --> 00:01:13,619
might be about to change because team red is expected to announce FSR 2.0

17
00:01:10,619 --> 00:01:16,200
later this week and dlss is on version 2

18
00:01:13,619 --> 00:01:21,420
now so that means AMD is caught up yeah high five I got a piece of it okay wait

19
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:26,460
dlss is on version 2.3 take that five back come on take it back

20
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:31,080
although there's still hope video cards reports that FSR 2.0 does use temporal

21
00:01:29,580 --> 00:01:35,700
data and features optimized for anti-aliasing two things that might help

22
00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:39,900
it compete with Team Green no word yet on whether FSR 2.0 will also bring a

23
00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:45,780
performance boost but we'll learn more during AMD's scheduled GDC talk capital

24
00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:49,920
T on The Talk The Talk is titled Next Generation image upscaling for games

25
00:01:47,460 --> 00:01:54,659
which basically sounds like the Holodeck to me very exciting super realistic

26
00:01:52,259 --> 00:01:58,560
goosebumps in games and the developers of popular YouTube app Advanced I

27
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:03,659
believe there's an apostrophe in there have announced it's being discontinued

28
00:02:00,899 --> 00:02:08,640
after legal threats from Google oh because Vance allowed users to block all

29
00:02:06,420 --> 00:02:12,000
video ads on YouTube without a premium subscription but the app actually had a

30
00:02:10,679 --> 00:02:17,879
ton of useful features Beyond ad blocking including Auto repeat background playback also a YouTube

31
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,780
premium perk picture-in-picture support and custom themes

32
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:25,980
wow it's sad to see YouTube going after small devs it seems like the advanced

33
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:29,879
team knew this was coming there are some alternative apps with similar features

34
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:33,480
but apparently versions of the van stop currently installed will continue to

35
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:37,319
work for about two years so that's how long you must wait until throwing

36
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,959
Tomatoes at Google headquarters because everything else they do is perfectly

37
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:46,860
fine now it's time for the quick bits brought to you by the Corsair 5000d and you know

38
00:02:44,220 --> 00:02:51,720

39
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:54,959
PC and not its cables unless you're really proud of those cables then find

40
00:02:53,099 --> 00:02:59,160
show them off no one's judging you the 5000d has easy to use Cable Management

41
00:02:56,879 --> 00:03:03,540
features and optimized steel front panel that delivers massive airflow and has

42
00:03:01,379 --> 00:03:08,760
expansive cooling options with support for up to 360 millimeter radiators on

43
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:13,500
the front side and top grab your 5000d airflow from Corsair today at the link

44
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:18,420
below ergo yeah I smuggled in these quick bits for

45
00:03:15,900 --> 00:03:22,260
you hopefully Linus doesn't see big time Apple analyst Ming Chi quo said that

46
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:26,879
Apple's next round of iPhones will not all get the same chip it's expected that

47
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:32,519
the iPhone 14 pro and the pro Max will feature the top of the line a16

48
00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:34,620
processor while the non-pro iPhone 14s

49
00:03:32,519 --> 00:03:38,360
will be stuck with this same old a15 bionic chip that Apple just put into

50
00:03:36,180 --> 00:03:43,019
their cheapest phone the iPhone SE because what kind of status symbol is

51
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:47,700
the pro iPhone if it has the same chip as the non-pro might as well have bought

52
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:52,080
an Android am I right disgusting Google is being sued by a group representing

53
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:56,580
Florida restaurants who say that the order online buttons seen on Google's

54
00:03:53,879 --> 00:04:00,780
business listings which links users to delivery companies like GrubHub or

55
00:03:58,260 --> 00:04:05,580
doordash is unlawful an unlawful attempt to steal a commission on a purchase they

56
00:04:03,599 --> 00:04:09,120
claim Google never got permission from restaurants to use the button but Google

57
00:04:07,379 --> 00:04:14,519
says they don't actually receive any compensation from the feature so or do

58
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:19,440
they I don't know but I do like seeing Tech Giants getting sued Eat the Rich ha

59
00:04:16,979 --> 00:04:25,320
ha get it Riley he wrote Get It James but he's not here

60
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:29,820
Shenzhen Wiley considered the Silicon Valley of China has been placed into a

61
00:04:27,419 --> 00:04:34,199
week-long lockdown following a spike in covid cases which has led to Major Tech

62
00:04:32,340 --> 00:04:38,580
suppliers like Foxconn suspending operations they're gonna affect me it's

63
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:42,840
unclear how long the shutdown may last because wow remember when we thought

64
00:04:41,220 --> 00:04:46,620
this thing would be gone after a month ah remember that though seriously my one

65
00:04:45,060 --> 00:04:51,419
friend was like three years ago so I was like shut up Twitter has reversed last week's

66
00:04:49,860 --> 00:04:55,560
controversial update to its mobile app which allowed users to swipe between the

67
00:04:53,520 --> 00:05:00,600
algorithm-powered home feed and the chronological latest tweets feed after

68
00:04:58,020 --> 00:05:04,080
intense backlash the real issue wasn't the new swiping feature it was that

69
00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:07,979
users weren't allowed to change the default setting meaning every time you

70
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:13,620
open the app it would be set to home that's right fight the algorithms maybe

71
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:18,960
Humanity has a chance in the robot war yet maybe we'll have the top tweets and

72
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:23,100
console modding YouTuber Ginger of Oz took it upon himself to make that 15

73
00:05:21,180 --> 00:05:29,100
year old fake image of a portable GameCube into a real device not an image

74
00:05:26,580 --> 00:05:33,960
at all not even an nft he actually made it better than a GameCube the handheld

75
00:05:31,259 --> 00:05:38,340
combines a Wii console with Gamecube controls teaching us that not everything

76
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:41,340
in this world sucks there's a handheld GameCube thing now that's gonna be okay

77
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,759
okay everything's gonna be fine everything's definitely gonna be okay if

78
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,900
you come back on Wednesday for more Tech news if you don't I have no idea what's

79
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:54,320
gonna happen and frankly I'm scared have you read the news David

80
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,320
the tech news come back for more
