00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.380
look i get it you might not actually want any tech news right now

00:00:05.600 --> 00:00:09.280
wait

00:00:09.280 --> 00:00:16.880
why would they be here then i don't know this is tech news apple may be about to

00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:18.800
start taking the pro part of macbook pro

00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:24.160
a bit more seriously as code in the latest beta build of macOS catalina

00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:25.840
references a pro mode but it's not just

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:30.080
something to make apple users feel better about dropping a big wad of cash

00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:33.760
on their new laptop this mode would apparently be similar to the high

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:39.280
performance modes found in gaming laptops as other bits of code mention

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:43.520
apps running faster but at the expense of reduced battery life and increased

00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:46.640
fan noise the available evidence also suggests

00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:51.120
pro mode would only be found in models with the new thermal design found in the

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:54.640
16-inch macbook pro now obviously a feature like this would be great for

00:00:52.879 --> 00:00:58.879
avoiding the kind of thermal throttling issues that we saw in the 2018 core i9

00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.960
macbook pro but it would also potentially make playing games a lot

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:05.840
better on macOS what

00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:13.840
can't wait to try apple arcade let's all have a moment of silence for Windows 7.

00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:20.880
it was too soon Windows 7 died a peaceful death this morning or at least

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:25.280
would have if all you people weren't still running it it's dead jim unless

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:30.000
you're a corporate customer who's paying for extended support you are now being

00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:35.040
left behind without security and feature updates we even did a whole video about

00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:39.759
this on Linus tech tips last year and to help scare you guys into upgrading look

00:01:37.520 --> 00:01:43.680
the nsa just found a vulnerability in Windows that could be exploited to

00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:47.759
validate fake certificates and even allow remote code execution attacks they

00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:51.759
reported it to microsoft instead of exploiting it themselves which is

00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:56.159
actually a nice change from the norm for the nsa and microsoft released a patch

00:01:54.240 --> 00:01:59.759
so everyone listening who has an operating system that can actively

00:01:57.759 --> 00:02:04.240
receive security patches please download the latest update for the rest of you

00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:08.720
stay strong out there in the wasteland and in one of the most wtf stories that

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:15.840
i've ever encountered scientists have made living robots that were designed by

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:18.080
ai and then constructed using stem cells

00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:21.120
from frog embryos see i told you it was weird

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:26.239
so a supercomputer at the university of vermont was tasked with designing a new

00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:30.480
organism using individual cells as building blocks and then running them

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:35.360
through an evolutionary simulation as in the most successful designs carry

00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:40.400
forward and are iterated on once the design was finalized biologists at tufts

00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:45.440
university in massachusetts assembled the robots using frog skin cells for

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:50.400
structure and then heart muscle cells for locomotion the resulting computer

00:02:48.239 --> 00:02:54.959
generated organisms are less than a millimeter in length they repair

00:02:52.800 --> 00:03:00.160
themselves after injury and can live for about a week or as long as their

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:04.080
implanted food source lasts they cannot reproduce because they don't

00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:09.519
have organs for that can you imagine like here's your job you know dr jeffrey

00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:14.640
sinshire make a fake robot frog penis

00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:18.720
yeah they don't have brains and they hopefully aren't going to turn us all

00:03:15.920 --> 00:03:25.120
into zombies but they are intended to eventually venture inside humans doing

00:03:21.920 --> 00:03:27.519
things like scraping arteries for plaque

00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:31.040
or delivering medicinal payloads to a specific organ

00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:34.720
what i am not ready for this future yet i

00:03:33.040 --> 00:03:38.799
know it was weird i was like what we're there already and we're there at the

00:03:36.640 --> 00:03:43.280
quibbly bibbles brought to you by the drop control mechanical keyboard this

00:03:40.959 --> 00:03:48.080
baby's got it all a solid cnc aluminum frame a built-in switch plate and that

00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:52.720
most crucial of all pc gamer features RGB lighting the control also features

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:57.200
qmk firmware for customizability hot swappable keyswitches with cherry mx

00:03:54.560 --> 00:04:01.599
kaiwa or halo options and dual usb type-c connectors plus if you've never

00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:05.599
signed up with drop you can get 10 off this keyboard today so buy it at the

00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:09.840
link below or on drop.com on to the bibles AMD might finally be

00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:14.799
bringing out the high-end parts from their navi-based graphics card lineup as

00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:19.199
an eec listing shows entries for an rx 5800 xt 5900

00:04:17.320 --> 00:04:23.360
59.50 i can't amp it up any more than that

00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:26.240
59.50 xp wow

00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:31.759
that's all we really had to go on for now although dr lisa sue did say that we

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.960
would get gpus with ray tracing in 2020

00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:38.960
so i guess we know that and we also know that these Radeon parts

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:42.800
probably won't live up to the success of their ryzen counterparts but that

00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:47.199
doesn't mean we can't pull for him yeah you know i i believe you can do it

00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:51.600
because i never learn apple is expected to wise up and replace the lightning

00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:55.919
connector in iphones with usb type-c eventually but if they don't the eu

00:04:53.840 --> 00:04:58.560
might actually force them to lawmakers in the european parliament are

00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:02.639
discussing legislation that would require all mobile phones and portable

00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:06.800
electronic devices to use the same charger but knowing apple they'll probably wait

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:12.720
until the very last second but i guess in a way that is a sort of courage yeah

00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:16.880
omg ninja is getting a fortnight skin no i'm not talking about that oh just

00:05:14.880 --> 00:05:21.280
kidding that's not a story oh good even more leaks are revealing more details

00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:25.199
about the upcoming samsung galaxy s20 this time courtesy of xda developers the

00:05:23.520 --> 00:05:31.440
phone will apparently feature a 120 hertz screen 12 or 16 gigs of RAM

00:05:29.280 --> 00:05:34.720
a 4500 milliamp hour battery and of course

00:05:32.320 --> 00:05:38.560
no headphone jack i think we'll always continue to say

00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:41.039
that devices have no headphone jack even when it's vanished off the face of the

00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:44.639
earth because that's that's how we roll and the us

00:05:43.039 --> 00:05:49.120
government is once again pressuring apple to provide a way to unlock the

00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:53.039
iphones of mass shooters apple says they have been helping the fbi by providing

00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:56.960
icloud data that was backed up before the phone was locked but the feds appear

00:05:54.880 --> 00:06:01.120
to be asking for an unlocking tool so they could just access the data

00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:04.639
themselves so far apple has

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.120
not agreed to do that and the tweets

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:11.759
don't seem to be really making much of a difference because

00:06:09.280 --> 00:06:15.120
why would they yeah you know keep at it if doing something over and over again

00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:19.440
doesn't work just keep doing it that's what i say just like the tech news we'll

00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:22.800
be back to you with more tech news on friday yeah we will right

00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:25.800
we will definitely
