00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:07.520
welcome child i have been chosen this day to deliver unto you the tech news

00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:12.160
and you shall be exalted multiple reports have emerged claiming

00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:17.680
that gamers rtx 3090 graphics cards are being bricked while trying to launch the

00:00:14.719 --> 00:00:22.080
closed beta for new world an mmorpg being developed by amazon games wow jeff

00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:27.519
bezos thanks the dozens of people with 3090s it's

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:31.279
still unclear what the exact cause is but it appears to have something to do

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:36.079
with the lack of a frame rate limiter in the game's menus causing said 3090s to

00:00:34.160 --> 00:00:42.559
just make as many frames as they can and just

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:48.160
shut the brick and 3090s are incredibly hard workers with absolutely no regard

00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:49.760
for their own well-being like Linus

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:54.160
it's also very likely that part of the answer here is an issue in NVIDIA's

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:57.760
drivers or firmware for now if you are playing new world make sure you've

00:00:55.440 --> 00:01:02.320
enabled the FPS limiter unless you're looking to buy more graphics cards to

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:05.840
help fund jeff's next trip to space he needs our help that kind of implies that

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:10.799
you're buying graphics cards from jeff bezos is he a scalper amazon's just one

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:15.040
big scalping scheme isn't it the world's youngest bitcoin billionaire eric

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:20.240
finnman made waves when he announced the freedom phone last week a 500 device

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:24.960
meant to push back against big tech censorship but the tech savvy pointed

00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:30.320
out that the phone appears to be at least a little scammy like bitcoin

00:01:28.720 --> 00:01:35.439
i'm still holding the the phone's supposedly custom operating system

00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:37.360
freedom os appears to be lineage os a

00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:43.040
common fork of Android and the phone itself is identical to the umidigi a9

00:01:40.240 --> 00:01:46.240
pro a chinese Android phone for 180 bucks on amazon

00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:52.720
best of all the freedom phones uncensorable app store that claims to

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:55.040
not ban apps at all even like malware

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:58.640
is actually the aurora store an open source client for the google play store

00:01:56.720 --> 00:02:03.360
i mean hey you absolutely have the freedom to get the freedom phone making

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:06.719
bad choices is part of growing up becoming an adult

00:02:04.880 --> 00:02:11.200
you know killing people accidentally it happens and leaked data has led to

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:14.800
multiple reports revealing that pegasus a piece of spyware intended to help

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:18.640
governments track terrorists and serious criminals like riley

00:02:16.640 --> 00:02:22.400
has been used by various regimes for surveillance of journalists activists

00:02:20.640 --> 00:02:27.200
and human rights lawyers pegasus can access all data on fully

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:31.440
patched iphones and Android devices according to its developer the

00:02:28.720 --> 00:02:36.560
israeli-based nso group nso claims it will cut off clients if they misuse

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:38.640
pegasus but who watches the watchers so

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:43.519
far they deny that evidence of misuse exists in the leaked records which lists

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:47.519
pakistan's prime minister and the french and iraqi presidents as victims they're

00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:51.599
probably doing bad stuff macron

00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:55.519
eating macrons all day too many amnesty international which helps

00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:59.120
publish the data has released a toolkit that can determine if your phone has

00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:02.720
been infected with pegasus but just to be safe we changed our minds

00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.840
you should get a freedom phone freedom isn't

00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:11.120

you know what's even hotter than those temps the quick bits

00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:56.080
blue origin successfully launched its first crude flight yesterday carrying

00:03:53.200 --> 00:04:00.000
jeffrey bezos and his companions to the edge of space jeff thanked every amazon

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:04.239
employee even the ones who pee in bottles and customer because they paid

00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:07.599
for this which i'm sure just gave all of us a real warm feeling yeah that's what

00:04:06.480 --> 00:04:11.920
i won we did but if you're mad at jeff for

00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:16.639
spending money on a romp into space he gave 200 million dollars to charity when

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:19.600
he landed so everything's fine

00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:24.479
he donated a billion to climate change just wash the problem away don't

00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:31.680
actually do anything a leaked benchmark of Intel's alder lake 12900k shows the

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:34.800
CPU beating an AMD ryzen 9 5950x by 18

00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:37.199
in a multi-core test and by 28 in a

00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:40.800
single core test i'm not a mathematician but if these numbers are accurate then

00:04:38.880 --> 00:04:46.800
it seems like the blue chip could beat the red chip by the percentages i just

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:47.600
said or the inverse of them 100 minus

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:53.440
no no i'm not a mathematician

00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:58.400
days before NVIDIA demoed an rtx 3060 GPU playing games on an ARM-based system

00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:02.800
running Linux a computer scientist named renee rebbe

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:10.080
that would be hard to type patch the AMD GPU driver in Linux to support a Radeon

00:05:05.440 --> 00:05:11.680
rx 6700 xt on risk 5 systems

00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:16.479
which includes systems with ARM processors so what am i reading we are

00:05:14.479 --> 00:05:20.400
rapidly approaching a world of ARM-based desktop pcs with full graphics cards and

00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:25.600
honestly i don't know if i'm ready for this jk give me those chips boy gimmie

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:29.120
let's go i drink it up

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:32.479
microsoft has backed off its initial claim that the performance enhancing

00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:36.639
direct storage API would only be available on Windows 11. a recent blog

00:05:35.039 --> 00:05:40.720
post says it's compatible with Windows 10 which is great news for change

00:05:38.880 --> 00:05:44.880
avoiding types everywhere what do you mean try new food salami sandwiches have

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:48.960
a perfect nutritional profile and avocados are spicy anyway especially

00:05:49.919 --> 00:05:56.800
olives that's for those italians wait salami 2 no

00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:00.720
and ubisoft has made another free to play shooter that no one wants it's

00:05:58.960 --> 00:06:06.400
called x defiant or zdefiant or xd effient

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:10.240
because ubisoft cared so little about what people thought about this that they

00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:13.680
let an ai like an automatic name generator

00:06:14.080 --> 00:06:19.520
maybe they like Intel the game is like a hero shooter with characters from

00:06:17.440 --> 00:06:25.039
ubisoft shooter games and i'm bored already so we're done what do you mean

00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:25.039
that sounds like smash bros of yeah

00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:30.960
okay we're gone and apparently we're done with this episode so come back on friday for more tech

00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:35.960
news please it'd be so great if you did that

00:06:33.919 --> 00:06:40.440
please please bye
