00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.819
if you ever think that you're not good enough for Tech news just stop thinking

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:10.740
that because that's dumb it's a dumb thought why would you why would you think what's wrong with you get smarter

00:00:09.179 --> 00:00:15.599
even though there's been lots of Buzz around new GPU offerings from both AMD

00:00:13.259 --> 00:00:20.580
and NVIDIA recently is anyone actually buying graphics cards right now I'm in

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:24.720
debt no I mean during the third quarter of this year so July August and

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:29.460
September GPU sales hit their lowest point in 10 years but there are plenty

00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:33.719
of factors that make this headline not super surprising outside of inflation

00:00:31.740 --> 00:00:37.440
and an overall economic slowdown there was obviously a huge rush to buy Cards

00:00:35.940 --> 00:00:40.500
during the pandemic with the end of lockdowns as well as the end of crypto

00:00:39.239 --> 00:00:44.820
mining lots of people are either actively trying to get rid of their old

00:00:42.480 --> 00:00:48.239
gpus or don't see much of a reason to upgrade when they already have a good

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:53.039
piece of Hardware that they just bought a year or two ago picture the GPU we

00:00:51.239 --> 00:00:57.840
have at home with me you know the meme of course

00:00:55.379 --> 00:01:03.480
NVIDIA has only released the very upper end of their RTX 4000 series so far and

00:01:00.660 --> 00:01:07.860
the rx7000 series from Radeon is yet to hit shelves in the meantime Tom's

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:12.360
Hardware has crowned team red the value king of gpus at least for those who

00:01:10.380 --> 00:01:16.320
aren't looking for the very newest GPU and whose wallets are already empty from

00:01:14.220 --> 00:01:21.119
Black Friday and compared to the 4090 it's also the short king of gpus to get

00:01:19.080 --> 00:01:25.439
you a short King stop me if you've heard this one before meta has been fined what

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:30.420
anyone who isn't a tech giant would call a huge amount of money the Irish data

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:35.759
protection commission has slapped Zach's company with a 265 million euro fine

00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:44.820
over data production violations causing meta to go yeah ooh you naughty country

00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:46.560
we have fun spank ooh it doesn't hurt me

00:01:44.820 --> 00:01:50.820
though specifically the penalty was levied over an incident last year in

00:01:48.240 --> 00:01:55.680
which over a half a billion users had their data exposed to this one before

00:01:52.880 --> 00:02:00.000
every almost every day including birth dates email addresses and phone numbers

00:01:57.659 --> 00:02:03.960
all of which could be very valuable to attackers seeking to carry out fishing

00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:09.720
or social engineering attacks yes although meta has been doing horribly

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:11.400
lately they are still very wealthy but

00:02:09.720 --> 00:02:15.840
these scandals add up combined with other penalties meta is on the hook for

00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:19.980
nearly a billion euros in fines issued over the past year and a half maybe Zuck

00:02:17.700 --> 00:02:23.160
can find a way to print money in the metaverse I mean other than the rather

00:02:21.959 --> 00:02:28.379
than the opposite of that which is what he's doing now printing friends no

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:32.879
and of course Twitter is still in the news but this time it's not over sassy

00:02:30.900 --> 00:02:37.440
tweets from the man treating the MMO of life as if it were Grand Theft Auto it's

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:42.239
over a data breach back in July the Bird app confirmed that over 5 million users

00:02:40.020 --> 00:02:46.140
had their data stolen but that data hadn't been exposed anywhere until now

00:02:44.640 --> 00:02:51.300
as a report from over the weekend indicated that it popped up on a hockey

00:02:48.900 --> 00:02:56.000
Forum completely for free and the hackers completely avoided The Penalty

00:02:53.280 --> 00:03:00.599
Box I hated that everyone hated that the data consists of

00:02:58.860 --> 00:03:04.500
phone numbers email addresses and locations all of which the users had set

00:03:02.819 --> 00:03:10.620
to private as a joke on top of that an even bigger

00:03:07.500 --> 00:03:12.420
data dump data this time sure has also

00:03:10.620 --> 00:03:17.580
been circulating privately and Twitter has been accused of not reporting it so

00:03:15.780 --> 00:03:22.500
if you're on Twitter be on the lookout for weird messages I mean in addition to

00:03:20.760 --> 00:03:26.300
the to the other ones yeah paino mind Elon putting his fingers together in

00:03:24.239 --> 00:03:30.959

you're quick with Marty something's got to be done about your bits oh one point

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:16.199
Frontier Airlines has become the first major U.S airline to completely ditch

00:04:14.819 --> 00:04:20.880
phone-based customer service transitioning entirely to using online

00:04:19.019 --> 00:04:26.100
chat because we all want to be aggravated by a plane service

00:04:23.340 --> 00:04:30.300
unsurprisingly cost was cited as a major reason for the decision especially as

00:04:28.020 --> 00:04:34.020
Frontier is already a low-cost carrier that has low base fares but charges

00:04:32.520 --> 00:04:37.919
extra for nearly anything you could think of hopefully the cost cutting on

00:04:36.180 --> 00:04:42.780
phone support will save us from having to pay a fee for oxygen masks honestly

00:04:40.919 --> 00:04:46.860
that seems like where it's going hey you can get the oxygen mask for 16 but for

00:04:44.940 --> 00:04:51.840
eight nitrogen masks we're in trouble it's good oh whoops I didn't pay some

00:04:49.979 --> 00:04:57.060
better news from the skies the European commission has set aside Spectrum for

00:04:54.240 --> 00:05:00.960
in-flight 5G anyone who's been on a plane knows that it's nearly impossible

00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:05.780
to get a cell connection at 35 000 feet even if you do step outside and say can

00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:10.259
you hear me now but the hope is that European airlines

00:05:08.220 --> 00:05:14.580
will start offering cell service as a perk soon in-flight 5G also shouldn't

00:05:12.900 --> 00:05:18.060
compromise safety as Pilots use different frequencies for communications

00:05:15.960 --> 00:05:21.660
but do expect flights to be slightly more annoying if the person next to you

00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:28.039
doesn't remember to use their airplane voice will stumble phone is that the

00:05:24.960 --> 00:05:31.919
airplane voice it's my airplane voice

00:05:28.039 --> 00:05:34.020
I don't know I'm flying right now luxury

00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:39.060
another crypto business is in Dire Straits after the collapse of FTX

00:05:36.259 --> 00:05:44.820
blockfy a major crypto lender has filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy with FTX going

00:05:41.580 --> 00:05:47.880
downsided as a main reason as FTX lent

00:05:44.820 --> 00:05:49.979
blockfy a rather large line of credit oh

00:05:47.880 --> 00:05:54.240
no anyway I think it was called the blockchain chapter 11 filing means that

00:05:52.139 --> 00:05:57.720
the company will be reorganized instead of just straight up liquidated but it's

00:05:55.979 --> 00:06:01.979
clear that this isn't a great time to sync tons of money into a really

00:05:59.400 --> 00:06:07.380
speculative idea if you want to do that there's always Twitter

00:06:04.620 --> 00:06:12.780
her I was gonna say the casino but yes we shouldn't be far off from the release

00:06:08.940 --> 00:06:14.039
of the RTX 4070 TI and the RX 7900 at

00:06:12.780 --> 00:06:18.720
least not if the new listings from Gigabyte are accurate both cards were

00:06:16.320 --> 00:06:22.919
very recently spotted in an eec database though it looks like the 4070 TI will

00:06:20.880 --> 00:06:29.220
have more variants at launch look for the 7900 on the 13th of next month and

00:06:25.860 --> 00:06:31.080
the 4070 TI sometime in January just as

00:06:29.220 --> 00:06:36.120
those bills from crystals are rolling in but you can look at them and remember oh

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:41.280
that was there were chestnuts involved laughter and tears and mostly tears

00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:45.060
roasting your bank account and if you just don't have enough room in your case

00:06:42.780 --> 00:06:50.880
to cool your components how about a huge block of three 360 millimeter radiators

00:06:48.300 --> 00:06:57.240
that sit outside your case you know why why not this is just what bixky has

00:06:54.419 --> 00:07:01.259
released you get a 3X3 array of 120 millimeter fans with a pump reservoir

00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:05.100
and radiator built into the unit though you'll have to provide the block tubing

00:07:02.819 --> 00:07:09.120
fittings and liquid yourself although external coolers aren't new it's the

00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:13.919
first time we've seen something this big marketed at Gamers and I always say

00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:18.240
bigger is better that's why I have as many muscles as I do can you see all my

00:07:16.500 --> 00:07:21.780
can you see all of them hold on let me get a do you see a mini electron

00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:25.979
microscope first properly they're everywhere Only the

00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:30.419
Strong will return on Wednesday for more Tech news oh don't think you can show up

00:07:28.380 --> 00:07:34.580
huh I didn't think you'd be able to take it anyway

00:07:31.620 --> 00:07:34.580
please please watch it
