00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.080
oh i can't wait to talk about the tech news today your tech stuff happens and

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:10.000
every time you talk about the technology

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:13.120
twitter can often be a toxic place because its structure encourages

00:00:11.200 --> 00:00:16.000
impulsive thought diarrhea from accounts protected from repercussions by

00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:22.000
anonymity while limiting space that could be used to flesh out nuanced positions but also bans people for

00:00:19.439 --> 00:00:26.560
breaking tos sometimes elon musk is concerned about the second part so after

00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:30.720
asking in a tweet what should be done he apparently thought the answer was to

00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:35.040
spend about 3 billion dollars to buy nine point two percent of twitter that's

00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.960
what you do when when you're that rich they let you do it so stupid the

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:45.040
purchase makes him the platform's single largest shareholder now owning four

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:47.440
times more than its founder jack dorsey

00:00:45.040 --> 00:00:52.079
some analysts expect musk to use his new position to leverage changes at twitter

00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:55.680
or maybe eventually buy the company out to make sure that users can steal reddit

00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:00.879
memes and contribute to the marketplace of ideas with cutting analysis like oh

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:04.479
hi lol with impunity not to mention manipulating markets

00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:08.560
google's deadline for Android app developers to actually use its google

00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:12.720
play billing system has arrived and as expected some companies have suspended

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:16.400
sales of digital goods as a result because paying google a commission can

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:20.479
understandably be a burden on small developers like

00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:25.040
amazon that's right you didn't see this coming audible which is owned by amazon

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:28.880
will no longer support purchasing ebooks through the Android app although signing

00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:32.320
up for a subscription will still work barnes noble has also removed the

00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:37.200
ability to buy ebooks through its Android apps meaning you can't even buy

00:01:34.240 --> 00:01:40.400
books on their own nook branded tablets they're just tablets now notes without

00:01:38.960 --> 00:01:44.079
books i ain't looking

00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:48.159
it was actually always a requirement for developers to use google play billing

00:01:45.759 --> 00:01:51.680
for digital goods but for years google mostly looked the other way when

00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:56.479
developers didn't comply and strangely decided to enforce its policy around the

00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:59.680
time that epic sued it and apple for their app store policies maybe google

00:01:58.399 --> 00:02:05.920
just makes so much money that they didn't even realize they were missing out on commissions i don't know hey elon

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:10.479
maybe you should buy google too and Intel has unveiled new details about

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.160
its block scale asic which promises to play a major role in helping crypto

00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:18.400
mining companies achieve both sustainability and hash rate scaling

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:20.879
objectives in the years ahead because we were all worried about them not being

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:25.200
able to profit off their huge investments in mining farms it matters

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:31.520
what if they couldn't do it no the block scale unit can hit up to 580

00:02:29.200 --> 00:02:35.280
giga hashes per second meaning miners are gonna want this chip but Intel

00:02:33.440 --> 00:02:39.680
claims it won't eat into production of its other cpus and gpus because to

00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:44.560
produce them it seems like Intel may be using other foundries like tsmc rather

00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:48.160
than its own so it's only taking up bandwidth that tsmc could be using to

00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:52.560
make other chips that people want leaving Intel with lots of capacity to

00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:56.720
make the only chips that anyone wants Intel chips you see how that's better

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.680
they're the good guys yeah the blue stuff oh what the hey you got any blue

00:02:58.959 --> 00:03:05.440

quick bits are slow but we still call them quick bits or they get really

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:50.799
offended dmitry rogozin the chief of

00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:54.480
russia's space agency roz cosmos said on twitter that the restoration of normal

00:03:52.720 --> 00:03:58.239
relations with the country's western partners on shared projects like the

00:03:56.319 --> 00:04:03.280
international space station is only possible if the illegal sanctions placed

00:04:01.040 --> 00:04:06.799
on russia are removed russia's an expert on legal

00:04:04.640 --> 00:04:10.720
we know we know the iss depends on russian operated modules to maintain its

00:04:08.959 --> 00:04:14.879
orbit and if russia pulls out of the project it's unclear how it will

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:18.799
actually uh uh stay in space

00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:21.759
maybe elon can buy it nine point two percent's all we need to stay lower

00:04:20.320 --> 00:04:26.000
dormant baby that'll help video cards is reporting

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:33.320
that according to their sources AMD will soon launch five new Radeon rx 6000

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:36.160
series cards the rx 6400 6500 6650 xt

00:04:33.320 --> 00:04:40.720
6750xt and 6950xt with the xt model sporting a faster 18

00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:44.400
gigabit per second memory bandwidth the cards are expected to launch may 10th

00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:48.400
and like almost all of AMD's mid-generation refreshes all signs point

00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:51.040
to them being pretty okay

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:55.280
just different cards there were these cards and now there's

00:04:54.080 --> 00:04:58.720
other ones the uk government has picked the perfect

00:04:57.120 --> 00:05:03.280
time to announce that the royal mint will be creating an nft as part of its

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:08.560
forward-looking approach to crypto assets yes the total market value of

00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:12.800
nfts dropped from 23 billion to 10 billion dollars between december and

00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:17.600
march as more and more people become aware of the litany of scams pervasive

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:21.039
in the nft community but i don't know maybe nfts can benefit from the royal

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:26.000
mints initiative just as much as the world benefits from the royals a token

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:30.400
for every car use give them to the peasants robotics

00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:35.120
engineering student ken pillinell gained some fame for building an iphone with a

00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:40.479
functioning usb-c port and now he's done it again but in reverse usb-c part with

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:44.080
the functioning iphone oh oh my god that's right the man somehow fitted an

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:48.639
Android phone with a functioning lightning port making it materially

00:05:46.479 --> 00:05:51.919
worse material but for april fool's day it's okay to

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:56.639
spend a lot of time on something just for the memes that's what i told myself

00:05:54.400 --> 00:06:00.080
and eldon ring is notoriously hard but some people sought to beat the game

00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:04.880
while making it even harder for themselves for some reason i don't

00:06:02.479 --> 00:06:08.479
understand why twitch streamer seki managed to complete the entire game

00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:13.280
without taking any damage at all while youtuber iron pineapple beat it without

00:06:10.880 --> 00:06:17.120
directly giving any damage using only summoned spirits to do his bidding and

00:06:15.280 --> 00:06:22.240
my question is why do these people punish themselves have some self-respect

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:26.800
you're a human being it's like punching yourself in the head the game i don't

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:32.319
get it things are ugly in it and that's cool oh man that was some good tech news

00:06:29.840 --> 00:06:35.039
and i bet it'll even be even better on wednesday so

00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.840
oh
