WEBVTT 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 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 00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:18.060 bit recently but demand for those sweet gaming graphics cards is still Sky High 00:00:14.639 --> 00:00:19.859 according to experts on the economy a 00:00:18.060 --> 00:00:24.300 situation we're reminded of thanks to the seizure of over 5000 XFX graphics 00:00:22.439 --> 00:00:28.920 cards by Chinese Customs officials strangely it wasn't some shady sculptors 00:00:27.180 --> 00:00:34.020 trying to smuggle cards over the Border in an attempt to avoid import duties it 00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:38.880 was apparently the Chinese branch of XFX themselves the 00:00:36.440 --> 00:00:43.020 5840 cards were higher end models apparently worth around 3 million 00:00:40.739 --> 00:00:48.780 dollars together but they were improperly labeled as low end ones which 00:00:45.300 --> 00:00:50.579 would have saved XFX China some money I 00:00:48.780 --> 00:00:55.079 miss the days when these kinds of busts were about drugs or diamonds but gpus 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 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:06.180 super resolution up scaling technology has been playing second fiddlehead 00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:08.220 NVIDIA's dlss since it launched but that 00:01:06.180 --> 00:01:13.619 might be about to change because team red is expected to announce FSR 2.0 00:01:10.619 --> 00:01:16.200 later this week and dlss is on version 2 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 00:01:19.080 --> 00:01:26.460 dlss is on version 2.3 take that five back come on take it back 00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:31.080 although there's still hope video cards reports that FSR 2.0 does use temporal 00:01:29.580 --> 00:01:35.700 data and features optimized for anti-aliasing two things that might help 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 00:01:38.100 --> 00:01:45.780 performance boost but we'll learn more during AMD's scheduled GDC talk capital 00:01:43.020 --> 00:01:49.920 T on The Talk The Talk is titled Next Generation image upscaling for games 00:01:47.460 --> 00:01:54.659 which basically sounds like the Holodeck to me very exciting super realistic 00:01:52.259 --> 00:01:58.560 goosebumps in games and the developers of popular YouTube app Advanced I 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:03.659 believe there's an apostrophe in there have announced it's being discontinued 00:02:00.899 --> 00:02:08.640 after legal threats from Google oh because Vance allowed users to block all 00:02:06.420 --> 00:02:12.000 video ads on YouTube without a premium subscription but the app actually had a 00:02:10.679 --> 00:02:17.879 ton of useful features Beyond ad blocking including Auto repeat background playback also a YouTube 00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:21.780 premium perk picture-in-picture support and custom themes 00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:25.980 wow it's sad to see YouTube going after small devs it seems like the advanced 00:02:23.640 --> 00:02:29.879 team knew this was coming there are some alternative apps with similar features 00:02:27.720 --> 00:02:33.480 but apparently versions of the van stop currently installed will continue to 00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:37.319 work for about two years so that's how long you must wait until throwing 00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:39.959 Tomatoes at Google headquarters because everything else they do is perfectly 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 00:02:44.220 --> 00:02:51.720 what the d stands for airflow a mid Tower ATX case

5000d has easy to use Cable Management 00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:03.540 features and optimized steel front panel that delivers massive airflow and has 00:03:01.379 --> 00:03:08.760 expansive cooling options with support for up to 360 millimeter radiators on 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:13.500 the front side and top grab your 5000d airflow from Corsair today at the link 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:18.420 below ergo yeah I smuggled in these quick bits for 00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:22.260 you hopefully Linus doesn't see big time Apple analyst Ming Chi quo said that 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 00:03:24.720 --> 00:03:32.519 the iPhone 14 pro and the pro Max will feature the top of the line a16 00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:34.620 processor while the non-pro iPhone 14s 00:03:32.519 --> 00:03:38.360 will be stuck with this same old a15 bionic chip that Apple just put into 00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:43.019 their cheapest phone the iPhone SE because what kind of status symbol is 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 00:03:44.760 --> 00:03:52.080 an Android am I right disgusting Google is being sued by a group representing 00:03:49.920 --> 00:03:56.580 Florida restaurants who say that the order online buttons seen on Google's 00:03:53.879 --> 00:04:00.780 business listings which links users to delivery companies like GrubHub or 00:03:58.260 --> 00:04:05.580 doordash is unlawful an unlawful attempt to steal a commission on a purchase they 00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:09.120 claim Google never got permission from restaurants to use the button but Google 00:04:07.379 --> 00:04:14.519 says they don't actually receive any compensation from the feature so or do 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 00:04:16.979 --> 00:04:25.320 ha get it Riley he wrote Get It James but he's not here 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:29.820 Shenzhen Wiley considered the Silicon Valley of China has been placed into a 00:04:27.419 --> 00:04:34.199 week-long lockdown following a spike in covid cases which has led to Major Tech 00:04:32.340 --> 00:04:38.580 suppliers like Foxconn suspending operations they're gonna affect me it's 00:04:36.840 --> 00:04:42.840 unclear how long the shutdown may last because wow remember when we thought 00:04:41.220 --> 00:04:46.620 this thing would be gone after a month ah remember that though seriously my one 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 00:04:49.860 --> 00:04:55.560 controversial update to its mobile app which allowed users to swipe between the 00:04:53.520 --> 00:05:00.600 algorithm-powered home feed and the chronological latest tweets feed after 00:04:58.020 --> 00:05:04.080 intense backlash the real issue wasn't the new swiping feature it was that 00:05:02.280 --> 00:05:07.979 users weren't allowed to change the default setting meaning every time you 00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:13.620 open the app it would be set to home that's right fight the algorithms maybe 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 00:05:16.440 --> 00:05:23.100 console modding YouTuber Ginger of Oz took it upon himself to make that 15 00:05:21.180 --> 00:05:29.100 year old fake image of a portable GameCube into a real device not an image 00:05:26.580 --> 00:05:33.960 at all not even an nft he actually made it better than a GameCube the handheld 00:05:31.259 --> 00:05:38.340 combines a Wii console with Gamecube controls teaching us that not everything 00:05:35.880 --> 00:05:41.340 in this world sucks there's a handheld GameCube thing now that's gonna be okay 00:05:39.960 --> 00:05:44.759 okay everything's gonna be fine everything's definitely gonna be okay if 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 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:54.320 gonna happen and frankly I'm scared have you read the news David 00:05:50.520 --> 00:05:54.320 the tech news come back for more
