Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Are foldables DOOMED?”.
Did you know that approximately eight newsworthy tech stories happen every day and you can help them now by donating $ 5 at the link below? What are you up to this weekend? Oh that’s cool because AMD decided their friday plans involved launching a ridiculous four thousand dollar desktop CPU with no real competitor. No, the thread ripper. Thirty. Nine. Ninety x is the first 64 core processor for the high-end desktop space, and it’s available now for three thousand nine hundred ninety US dollars.
Apparently, it’s in a league of its own, as intel’s closest competitor in terms of price, is the xeon w-30 275, with a mere twenty eight cores get out of here. Bush league and it’s also five hundred bucks more expensive and doesn’t come near the thirty nine ninety X in terms of performance. So the one big issue as Linus and Anthony explained in the full review over on LT T is that it’s limited to 256 gigs of memory which hey. That seems like a lot to normies like us, but for the market that this chip is targeting.
That’S actually kind of low, with other h, EDT cpus, supporting up to one terabyte of RAM. So I guess this is a part of AMD’s story where they’re kind of going a bit mad with power. You know the bright fancy, sportcars mansions and oh maybe some mistakes are made that anger, the wrong type of people and the stage is set for like a Scarface style shootout. You know, god be careful here at Lisa.
All right, motorola has officially launched the new razor phone with a foldable display, and things aren’t looking too hot one of the first questions. People will always ask about any foldable devices its. How durable it is, and the razor is putting up a not great, showing so far in store models are showing vertical lines across the screen, as well as just straight up.
Broken displays and a fold test by CNET found that after 27,000 folds, the hinge mechanism started clicking weirdly and resisted being folded. Now, hey yeah, well I’d you’ll find out here in a second now that sounds like a lot of folds, but apparently the average iPhone user. On their phone to FaceTime their barista around 80 times a day, so 27,000 folds a translate to about a year of use a day for James. Look, I’m not riding the thing off yet, but it’s 1500 bucks. I wanted to at least stand up to me throwing at the wall in frustration. Every time I try to check the sports ball scores and facial recognition, startup Clearview AI is being told to back off by tech giants like Facebook, Google and LinkedIn. You see Clear View.
Has built a database of faces based off publicly available photos on social media? They say that such a database can help and has helped law enforcement to quickly identify persons of interest. However, the tech big boys think that scraping faces this way violates their policies and have demanded that Clear View stop the practice with LinkedIn going so far as to send a cease and desist letter. But Clear View says: they’re perfectly within their rights to catalog publicly available photos. Since Americans have a First Amendment right to public information and really what they’re doing isn’t that different from what Google does index and direct people towards the information they’re searching for which, on the one hand, is like yeah? Okay, fine, but, on the other hand, is like really, though, not really see at the Supreme Court. James now, it’s time for quickvids brought to you by the problem solving based website and app with over 60 interactive courses in math science and computer science, and it can also help you achieve your goals in stem.
What Oh brilliant! He knew what it was brilliant, well puzzle. You surprised you and expand your understanding of the modern world. All of their courses have storytelling code, writing, interactive challenges and problems to solve and now there’s interactive content that makes solving puzzles and challenges even more fun and hands-on check out their computer science courses.
You’Ll get a strong understanding of algorithms and you can even learn how to program a drone to annoy your sister so head to brilliant org forward, slash tech linked and get 20 % off. Today, it’s evergreen with AMD, knocking it out of the park right now, everyone’s starting to turn on Intel, even Apple code from the latest Mac OS beta, contains references to several AMD processors, including Picasso, Renoir and Van Gogh. Ap use – Oh everybody, cheered when EA brought their games back to steam, after keeping them locked in their own origin store for a while. But now the cheering has died down because the prices for EA games on Steam has been jacked up in the UK, Canada, Europe, Brazil and Russia. In some cases the Steam prices are doubled. The origin was well frankly, I’m thinking I’m thankful for this, because I was confused for a bit there.
Are we supposed to hate EA or not? Why I’m right back, I’m right back with you come on whoa! Look at this crazy thing. It’S a laptop called the Pivo bug with a screen that can rotate from landscape to portrait mode. It’S made by Taiwan’s compiled electronics, which usually they usually don’t make their own laptops. So he may see designs like this coming soon from companies like Dell or HP.
This is gon na be for like when the smartphone generation kids are in the workforce and then everyone’s just typing on, like smartphone laptops vertical screen, so they can check their snapchats and spreadsheets. At the same time, chrome is rolling out new features that allow users to block select ads deemed too heavy or intrusive, and you can also block those pop-ups that ask you to enable notifications, because why would I stop asking? But in case you forgot to Chrome is also taking away features, namely flash later this year. So thankfully flashpoint is a huge archive of thousands of flash games that you can download yourself. If you want to just pretend the never aged past 14 for a little bit and big news, James Ford has created a jacket for cyclists that can display emoji on the back cool right.
The jacket can signal to cars. What the cyclist intends to do like turn or slow down it can take anything you want, but it can also display the rider’s mood you can put like spaces on it like a happy face, sad face, but who’s gon na be riding around telling everyone that you’re Having a bad day like watch out all right, and I have to say no thanks what Tamura tech news for day today, because this episode is over and I can’t talk any more clearly so I’ll see you next time, hopefully I’ll, be more eloquent. I’M sorry! .
