00:00:01.439 --> 00:00:07.200
uh tech links number 69 to infinity and beyond

00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:11.040
you know this whole putting on the techlink shirt over top of my other

00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:15.280
shirt isn't really going to work as well now that it's winter

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:19.600
i think you look great Intel has apparently gotten sick of everyone

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:23.840
talking about how AMD is just killing it with their cpus right now and how Intel

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:28.560
just can't get their 10 nanometer process sorted out because they just

00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:34.399
came out swinging with a bunch of exciting announcements at an event

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:36.079
called Intel architecture days or iad

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:41.200
it kind of sounds like a sponsored event at disneyland or something doesn't it

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:45.440
first Intel announced the 10 nanometer sunny cove CPU core which is expected to

00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:50.399
be used in the company's ice lake u processors early next year bringing

00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:53.280
improvements in cryptography ai and machine learning and of course overall

00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:59.039
speed second Intel announced foverose 3d die

00:00:56.800 --> 00:01:04.720
stacking which allows not just memory but processor components to be stacked

00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:08.000
on top of each other with more and faster interconnects than other stacking

00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:12.960
technologies third Intel's integrated graphics is now

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:16.960
on its 11th generation and should offer up twice the performance of their

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:21.520
current built-in graphics meaning that finally it might not be garbage and

00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:28.479
lastly Intel has announced that their upcoming discrete gpus formerly

00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:28.479
codenamed arctic sound

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:36.159
will be officially branded z

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:38.640
or wait that's x with a superscript e it

00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:40.880
x to x to the power of e is it

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:51.280
i really want to get excited about this but i'm going to have to know how to pronounce it first you guys

00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:55.040
samsung is reevaluating its decision to collaborate with fashion brand supreme

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:59.360
really well it's because they weren't ever

00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:04.640
actually collaborating with supreme let me explain earlier this week samsung

00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:07.920
china held a launch event for the galaxy a8s

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:12.160
at that event they announced a creative partnership with supreme women

00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:18.520
people

00:02:22.160 --> 00:02:27.520
problem is there are two companies called supreme

00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:32.800
in the world the original is based in new york and doesn't actually own the

00:02:30.160 --> 00:02:38.239
rights to their brand the second one is called supreme italia and sells products

00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:43.040
with the supreme name and logo which is technically legal because of the whole

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:46.720
no copyright thing after the real supreme released a

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:50.720
statement saying they are not part of the collab samsung china released

00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:55.840
statement saying that the collab was indeed with supreme italia and that they

00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:59.760
are currently re-evaluating this cooperation i mean

00:02:57.440 --> 00:03:03.920
did they get confused they also said that they deeply regret the

00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:07.680
inconvenience cause like they might they might not have known that they were

00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:11.599
talking to the wrong supreme which is the real supreme but not the one that

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:16.000
owns the copyright was this a corporate case of catfishing i think so

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.000
it's a stranger the truth is stranger than fiction a huge report in the new

00:03:18.239 --> 00:03:25.040
york times on monday looked at how dozens of companies track smartphone

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:26.480
users locations then sell that data to

00:03:25.040 --> 00:03:30.560
advertisers now if you're the type of person who's

00:03:29.040 --> 00:03:35.200
really smart and watches TechLinked every day this probably won't be a

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:39.920
surprise to you basically any app you install will collect some form of

00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:45.120
usually anonymous data but the report found that even seemingly

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:51.120
innocuous apps like the weather channel or gas buddy can track your location

00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:54.239
with pinpoint accuracy and while the data is technically

00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:59.599
anonymous the times reporters were able to easily

00:03:56.720 --> 00:04:03.439
track users back to their homes which would be an obvious way to

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:08.560
identify them the reporters were even able to track

00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:11.120
president trump in one instance so then

00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:14.640
what can you do to protect yourself not a whole heck of a lot

00:04:13.200 --> 00:04:20.000
i mean this might actually have been a good segue into a vpn app but instead

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:23.759
it's time for cow week pits brought to you by brilliant brilliant is the new

00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:03.280
change the game industry epically

00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:07.360
after launching their own game store with better developer revenue splitting

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:12.320
than steam the company announced the online services sdk which developers

00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:15.840
will be able to use to more easily enable cross-platform capabilities in

00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:20.720
their games for free you know what great jobs we

00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:26.160
don't say this often enough great job game developer

00:05:22.320 --> 00:05:28.240
also bad job because epic games yes that

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:32.880
same company we just mentioned is hosting the competitive winter royale

00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:37.919
fortnite tournament with a one million dollar prize

00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:42.720
however the game just got the infinity blade a weapon that basically makes its

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:46.479
wielder incredibly powerful and nigh unstoppable and yeah it showed up in the

00:05:45.520 --> 00:05:51.840
tournament the community the competitors in the tournament and well basically that's

00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:55.440
everyone but they were understandably unhappy because this pretty much breaks

00:05:53.840 --> 00:06:00.160
the competitive structure of the game i mean that's kind of life though isn't it you know you win some you lose some some

00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:03.680
days you're winning and then suddenly you lose because everything got imba

00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:08.639
yeah and this is the last time we're going to talk about samsung galaxy s10

00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:10.720
leaks for real this time but leaker ice

00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:14.880
universe has posted a photo of what is supposedly the upcoming flagship

00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:18.960
complete with a dual camera cutout in the top corner of the screen that's not

00:06:16.880 --> 00:06:23.600
quite as bad as it sounds like it's not two cutouts each with a camera it's one

00:06:20.960 --> 00:06:27.199
cutout with two cameras but either way there's going to be a cut out and that's

00:06:25.039 --> 00:06:30.800
it oh well the line was silenced until

00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:35.440
february but i'm not talking yeah but now you need to keep talking then i did finally

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:41.440
one thing we can talk about is this bonkers new vr headset made by a company

00:06:37.919 --> 00:06:44.160
called vrgineers

00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:48.720
virgineers sounds like uh i never said it out loud i would hate to

00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:55.600
damage their virgin ears ah with the joke about virginia's

00:06:53.120 --> 00:07:02.319
the unit boasts a 180 degree field of view dual 2560 by 1440 OLED displays and

00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:06.720
integrated leap motion hand tracking also it's huge and cost five thousand

00:07:04.880 --> 00:07:10.639
eight hundred dollars i mean you know that's one strategy for vr headsets most

00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:16.639
companies are trying to figure out how to lower the prices and make them palatable and these guys are like well

00:07:14.400 --> 00:07:20.639
hey if we make it six thousand dollars we don't have to sell that many of them

00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:25.039
hey and we know that the way your pc looks

00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:30.240
is the most important thing about it and so does Corsair they have finally done

00:07:27.280 --> 00:07:35.039
it they've announced RGB memory modules that don't actually have any RAM in them

00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:39.120
yep they're just empty RGB equipped plastic cards that you can stick in your

00:07:37.039 --> 00:07:42.800
motherboard so you have more RGB goodness in there because who needs

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:46.479
actual RAM when you can just have more bling you know it's a thought that

00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:50.560
counts merry christmas and that's all i can handle for today was the bear bit of

00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:56.960
