00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:05.359
hi there it's me mr tech news man i got

00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:11.679
a legal name change when i found out i was hosting this video because the tech

00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:14.400
news today is that exciting

00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:18.160
NVIDIA launched the rtx 3080 at 6am yesterday exclusively to bots and

00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:22.240
scalpers who overwhelmed the pre-ordering system and cleaned out

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:26.960
virtually all stock from seemingly every store minutes after the launch the one

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:31.599
place you could find in rtx 3080 right now is ebay where said scalpers are

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:36.160
reselling the cards for hundreds and thousands of dollars above msrp some

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:42.079
sellers are even selling fake cards under the name rtx 3080 paper edition

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:46.879
because it's not an actual card it's a piece of paper with a picture of the

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:49.440
card on it i am so sad NVIDIA apologized

00:00:46.879 --> 00:00:55.360
for what can only be described as a complete cluster of a launch saying they

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:58.960
are now manually reviewing orders placed on their website to prevent scalpers

00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:02.719
from ordering any more but some users took it into their own hands those

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.119
seventy thousand dollar prizes you see were apparently the result made by angry

00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:11.119
fans who withdrew their winning bids which costs the sellers ebay fees and

00:01:09.600 --> 00:01:15.040
may prevent them from being able to sell the cards at all until more stock is

00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:20.080
available at which point they'll have no choice but to sell them at normal prices

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:24.000
like a like a schmuck one user even wrote a bot that clogged the ebay

00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:28.240
listings with fake bids showing that the only thing that can stop a bad guy with

00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:33.040
a bot is a good guy with a bot murica ps5 fans found themselves in an

00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:37.040
only slightly worse predicament as due to some mixed messaging pre-orders for

00:01:34.880 --> 00:01:40.640
the console went live early and were already sold out basically everywhere by

00:01:39.119 --> 00:01:45.360
the time sony announced that the pre-orders would go live the next day

00:01:42.960 --> 00:01:48.799
but david got one did he oh wow he was he had his finger on the pulse walmart

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:52.479
best buy and other resellers were swamped making it virtually impossible

00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:56.159
to order the console many of those that did snag one have received emails saying

00:01:54.399 --> 00:01:59.759
their shipment will be delayed due to high demand now this is all happening

00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:04.320
while another scandal is emerging over ps5 exclusives apparently the only

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:09.039
launch games that will actually be exclusive to the ps5 are demon souls

00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:12.879
which sony has clarified is not coming to pc even though their presentation

00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:16.560
said it would be available on pc and destruction all-stars which were all

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.040
really generators

00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:25.680
big splody game horizon forbidden west and spider-man

00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:30.959
miles morales will both be available on ps4 no

00:02:27.920 --> 00:02:33.360
i wanted a special box for my special

00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:37.440
games have you heard about the SSD sony has also confirmed that the ps5 will not

00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:42.480
be backwards compatible with the ps1 ps2 or ps3 but will run 99 of ps4 games

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:46.480
which is a higher number than we thought it would be xbox claims they'll avoid a

00:02:44.720 --> 00:02:50.879
similar situation by penalizing retailers if they offer pre-orders early

00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:56.080
and if you heard about game pass it's a great deal you can't afford not to buy

00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:58.480
an xbox 35 a month wow and it's

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:04.239
happening the u.s government will ban tick-tock and wechat from app stores in

00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:06.319
the country on sunday september 20th see

00:03:04.239 --> 00:03:10.080
you later it's unclear how this band will affect existing users but new users

00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:13.440
would be unable to download the apps starting next week i guess in that case

00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:17.440
they wouldn't be new users they'd just be people it's also unclear what tik tok

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:23.200
can do at this point to avoid a ban they've got this deal going with oracle but apparently that wasn't enough for

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.840
president trump one tick tock executive reached out to adam mosseri the head of

00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:31.920
instagram on twitter asking for facebook's help in their legal fight to

00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:35.680
stay in the u.s which would not be in facebook's best interest but it's worth

00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:39.519
a shot the government isn't stopping there though both epic games and league

00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:44.159
of legends creator riot games are having their security protocols probed by the

00:03:41.920 --> 00:03:47.440
feds for their ties to chinese gaming conglomerate tencent i'd like to see how

00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:52.080
that goes down because the amount of gaming companies tencent owns is i think

00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:55.840
all of them not sure about that one but like halo for exa that i think that's

00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:59.680
tencent it's all been tense and the whole time now it's time for quick bits

00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:05.040
brought to you by the new vessy weekend shoe which i am wearing currently

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:08.400

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:16.560
terrain and your feet will stay nice and dry the new weekend shoe is easy to

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:20.079

00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:30.639
it's time for quick bits get it through your skull

00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:35.680
AMD might be skipping desktop versions of its ryzen 4000 series chips and

00:04:32.960 --> 00:04:41.199
jumping straight to the 5000 series software engineer patrick shurer said he

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:42.720
spotted a 12 core ryzen 9 5900x are you

00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:48.160
sure and an 8 core ryzen 7 5800x so maybe

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:53.680
this is what we'll get to see when AMD announces new processors on october 8th

00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:59.520
maybe it's not leaks are like life what is it even you know iOS 14 has arrived

00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:04.160
on iphones bringing improved security and privacy features a cool double

00:05:02.080 --> 00:05:08.479
back tap gesture that should have made it to Android 11 but didn't and widgets

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:13.039
a revolutionary feature that Android phones have had since 2010. what do i

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:16.880
sound bitter if i do it's because apple sucks you're not my real dad tim new

00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:20.639
leaks have given us a good look at the google nest audio and the new google

00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:24.240
chromecast which should both be launching during the pixel event on

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:27.919
september 30th this is the most concrete evidence yet that the new chromecast

00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:31.440
will run Android 10 as it apparently comes with a remote sporting an ipod

00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:36.240
click wheel hey that's my dad's click wheel

00:05:34.320 --> 00:05:41.199
and yet another tesla driver has been found sleeping behind the wheel of their

00:05:37.919 --> 00:05:42.240
car while in autopilot mode

00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:46.639
i wish a 20-year-old man in alberta and his

00:05:44.479 --> 00:05:50.320
passenger had both the passenger seats of their 2019 model s completely

00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:54.639
reclined when they were being arrested they were sleeping

00:05:52.960 --> 00:05:58.320
why does this keep it in alberta you don't even need autopilot that's true

00:05:56.479 --> 00:06:01.360
it's very flat why does this keep happening tesla should add driver

00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:05.039
sensors or something so that when the car detects someone doing this it just

00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:09.199
drives them straight onto a spacex rocket and it's time for this guy to

00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:12.800
blast off away from here come back on monday for

00:06:11.280 --> 00:06:17.840
more tech news at which point my name will be changed back to riley i realized

00:06:15.440 --> 00:06:21.680
