Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Bendable OLED TVs – BUT WHY?”.
Riley I swear if you don’t get me my tech news right now. I’M gon na explode ( explosion, ) [ Riley ]. Oh, where can I get that pillow, ( laughs, ), lttstore.com. Qualcomm is rolling out a new system on a chip in order to get 5G into more devices.. The budget oriented Snapdragon 480 is due out this year and will support both the millimeter wave and sub-6 GHz.
Flavors of 5G, which is unquestionably awesome., But I love asking questions. So here’s one.: How will the chip perform outside of its fancy cellular capabilities? 400-Series, Qualcomm chips have been notoriously slow in the past. Making phone space on them feel a lot less responsive than the higher end 800-series lineup.. However, Qualcomm has switched to an eight nanometer process for the new chips which Qualcomm claims makes the 480 twice as snappy of a dragon.
As the existing Snapdragon 460. [ Riley ], Is that possible Snap, your dragons [ Riley ] Dragons are already –. We don’t have an exact date as to when you can get one of these phones in your hot little hands, but look for an announcement in the first quarter of this year, if you’re looking to blow that $ 600 stimulus, real fast., [, Riley, ] Woo. That’S what it’s for right, [, Riley, ], Yeah, going to the gambling club.
( laughs )! What’S that called The casino [ Riley ] Yeah, (, laughs, )? What? Although Windows 10, has gotten a lot of big updates since its release in 2015. It looks like some very major changes may be coming later. This year.
Rumors have already been flying about a Windows design for a few months. Now. Microsoft has seemed to confirm this through posting, a job listing for software engineers, who will “, deliver a sweeping visual rejuvenation. “ of Windows experiences and will signal “. That Windows is back.”: [, Riley, ], Yeah, woo, Woo Yeah in all capital.
Letters. Wait: where did Windows go? Did we all start using Linux Mint and no one told me about it: [ Riley ]. We did sorry sorry, Colton. Missed the memo.

Thank you.. Lg has given us a sneak peak at its bendable OLED gaming display.. It plans to show off at CES next week.. Oh, I see so you can fit it in your pocket. [ Riley ] Yeah.. No, the display can convert between a flat mode for watching video or doing normal, boring computer stuff and a curved mode for high-immersion gaming.
[ Riley ] Woah. Are we in it right now We’re in it dude.? It also has a film exciter, which means the entire display can double as a speaker. Awesome. I’M just gon na go throw out my sound system as soon as we’re finished filming..
It’S an interesting choice to make the panel OLED, despite the risks of panel burn-in that become more popular for rich people in large part, thanks to wide support for variable, refresh rate tech and 4K 120Hz on new models.. We’Re not sure. If and when we’ll see this bendy display on the market, but with folding phones becoming more of a thing, hopefully it won’t be too long as I for one would love to have a screen that flaps like a bird.. Now it’s time for the Quick, bits. [ Riley ]! Yes, Today’s Quick bits are brought to you by the Koss GMR-54X-ISO Gaming Headset, a collaboration with Drop..

Although the dev team at CD, Projekt Red, has had to sink a lot of time into patching the notoriously buggy Cyberpunk 2077, their free DLC is still on track, as they’ve announced.
Gamers should be getting the new content sometime early this year.. I hope that new content includes pants zippers, that actually work. [ Riley ]. Is that a reference to something That is definitely a thing in the game.? You could sometimes just see your stuff floating about or you’d be bald like in mirrors. [ Riley ], That’s a feature.! Ah I don’t know about that..
Many of us have had to deal with unpleasant surprises when we go back to work after the holidays., And this was definitely the case for Slack users as there’s been a major outage today, that’s still ongoing. At the time this video was written.. They haven’t said how long it’ll take to fix the issue.
So maybe this is a good excuse for you to take a cue from the app’s name and you know slack. [, Riley, ], Slack off.! That’S a good joke. [ Riley ] Go home.. Google’S parent company Alphabet woke up this morning to the news that its workers are forming their very own union..
The development comes after years of employee discontent with Alphabet’s handling of sexual harassment cases and politically controversial moves.. It’S the most high profile unionization among tech workers, ever., So watch out, Jeff Bezos the revolution may have begun.. I want to install a passenger compartment in your rockets. There bud. [, Riley ] He’ll, be all right.. Does your bank still not let you deposit checks by taking a photo with your phone Now call this number. Venmo is trying to fill that gap as it’s rolling out a camera-based check, cashing feature.. Unfortunately, there will be fees attached either 1 or 5 %, depending on what kind of check it is with Venmo, getting a minimum cut of the five bucks.
Hm. Maybe I’ll just have Linus pay me in cash and hide it inside my mattress. [ Riley ].
That’S where I have all my money., My grandpa literally used to do that., And in case you forgot how much money Fortnite has made for Epic Games. Epic has announced it will be taking over an entire shopping mall holy crap [ Riley ] For Battle, Royale (, laughs, ) IRL. The developer is buying a struggling mall near its current headquarters outside of Raleigh and intends to convert it into a new home-base by 2024..
The mall was actually gon na be turned into an IKEA a couple of years ago before that plan was scrapped, meaning we’re getting more DLC instead of more indecipherable furniture assembly, diagrams. [, Riley ]. I want both.
