tech news comes at you fast if you're not looking it might just ha see
that's what i'm whoa geez louise samsung held their annual unpacked event this
morning and took the wraps off four major new products the galaxy z fold 3
the z flip 3 the galaxy watch 4 and
galaxy buds 2. august is when we used to get new galaxy notes but i guess samsung
passed too many of those in class and now they've been said to detention
yeah the metaphor doesn't really work there like samsung anyways the z fold 3
improves on the fold 2 in a number of ways as Linus discovered in his hands-on
video it's got an under display camera on the inside and support for the
samsung's s pen stylus along with an upgraded starting price of 1800
u.s expensive it is expensive you might want to be careful using it on the
street you may get jumped the z flip 3
is also cheaper than its predecessor starting at a thousand bucks with a
bigger cover display for selfies and a 120 hertz refresh rate for the main
screen both of the z phones have snapdragon 888s inside and are ipx8
water resistant which is a big leap from samsung's original foldies which
suffered from problems with dust and crap getting stuck in the hinge i lost a
whole hot dog in there once
i mean i was forcibly trying to put it in then there's the galaxy watch four
the first fruit of samsung's wear os partnership with google this thing's got
a bio-active sensor that can measure body fat percentage a new five nanometer
processor and more RAM and will start at 249 dollars finally the galaxy buds too
they're smaller and lighter than the buds plus with proper active noise cancellation this time and once again
seem to offer quite a lot for 150 bucks hey
thanks for all the cool products apple for Android people no problem
samsung hackers made off with around 611
million dollars worth of cryptocurrency yesterday in one of the biggest digital
heists ever the victim was polynetwork a pdp platform who tweeted out the crypto
addresses the funds had been transferred to and pleaded for the hackers to please
please return the funds appealing to the humanity please wait it
actually did work hours after the attack the hackers started sending small
transfers back to polynetwork eventually returning around 260 million dollars
worth of various cryptocurrencies one of the hackers has reportedly said they did
it quote for fun and to expose vulnerabilities and they were always
going to return some of it some crypto fans following the story tried to get in
on the windfall though replying to paulie's tweets asking please mr hacker
if you see this transfer me some coins too
and also sign up for my initial coin offering it's called
like a good pleadcoin it sounds promising and maybe you don't
even want to hear about new GPU launches but reviews for AMD's rx 6600 xt came
out yesterday and well let's just say it doesn't do much
to reverse the 2021 GPU trend the consensus seems to be that the 6600 xt
is somewhat lacking in performance for its 379 msrp which is probably a lot
less than you would end up paying for it anyways but don't worry there was
another GPU launch this week NVIDIA's a2000
sure it's a workstation card and it's basically a downgraded rtx 3060 but look
how cute it is oh my gosh
if GPU performance and price are now meaningless things to use for comparison
we might as well talk about cuteness factor and the a2000 is off the charts
sign me up we need more cute graphics cards i'm sorry but there's not enough

off low quality stock because around half of the units the tech jesus crew
tested failed so watch their video and
pledge your heart to steve if you haven't already he deserves it with that
hair it takes a lot of work i'm trying to get there you're halfway xiaomi announced a
number of new products this week but the standout has to be the cyber cyberdog a
really cool new quadruped robot that is the result of hundreds of thousands of
hours of r d which were apparently mostly spent reverse engineering the
spot robot from boston dynamics because come on that's also probably how they
were able to price it so low i mean xiaomi gets points for marketing the
renders look really great but the shamelessness on
display here is much more impressive apple has officially settled their
lawsuit with corellium maker of an iOS emulator that could run in a web browser
the judge ruled corellium's use of apple software qualified for fair use meaning
i could build a hackintosh that runs iOS

its own i put the mac pro wheels on it so it's just
amazon thinks it's finally found a way to appease customers who bought faulty
products which resulted in bodily injuries money

property are eligible for up to a thousand dollars in hush money so you
can put a down payment on a prosthetic leg for yourself and jeff can keep going
to space everybody wins i don't see a
problem here and openai has found another use for
their fancy language understanding gpt3 system allowing programmers to code
without writing code what openai's codecs will code for you based on
natural language input so you can just tell it to put a bunch of buttons
somewhere on a web page or hey show a little image of a guy i can control with
arrow keys what are you gonna make with it jonathan
it sounds like an assistant hey codex end this episode in a fun way and tell
