Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “iPad is OFFICIALLY a laptop.”.
Hey stop what you’re doing take a deep breath with me? Okay in and out remain calm. Lots of household items can be used as toilet paper. In a pinch, I’m gon na try and one take this Apple as Apple has just unveiled: an updated iPad pro and MacBook Air. Yes, the new MacBook scored 10th gen processors, eight gigs of RAM and 256 gigs of storage in the base model. But more importantly, they have the scissor switch magic keyboard instead of the old sinful butterfly keyboard.
So that’s the important thing. As for the new iPad pro, it’s got dual rear cameras, one wide one ultra wide, with a lidar sensor for better a our experiences and an upgraded, a 12 Z, Bionic processor, because that’s horrible. But the big news here folks is the heavily rumored keyboard folios with track pads, which are apparently real. Yes, iPad OS is getting full on mouse support for track, pads and Bluetooth mice, and it’s not just an optional accessibility. Setting like we saw on ipad OS 13, but of course, Apple couldn’t do it the normal way. The cursor and iPad OS will be a little circle by default and will change depending on the context. So now you can use a trackpad with your iPad. If you want to spend 350 bucks for the attachment, logitech has some cheaper models for the cheaper ipads, but in case you were worried that Apple was losing too much of itself here there they are Sony had to answer Microsoft’s deluge of Xbox Series X details, so They did PS 5 System Architect, marked cerny, told a roomful of cardboard cutouts that the console will have eight Zen two cores running at 3.5 gigahertz with multi-threading the Xbox Series X, cores, run it 3.8 gears and a custom rDNA to GPU with 36 compute units and 10.28 teraflops of performance, which is again less powerful than the series X it seemed like Cerny, spent a good chunk of the presentation talking about how this isn’t actually a big deal and that teraflops don’t matter it’s how you use it.
Ok, so the GPU might not be ballin, but Sony has apparently put a lot of work into the consoles 3d audio capability, and it might be so good that cerny suggested players could send Sony pictures of their ear, so they could get a custom audio profile. Nice. Try buddy you’re, not getting my ear data and AMD processors won’t just be found in next-gen consoles, you’re about to see them in a lot more laptops.
As notebooks with rise in mobile 4000 series chips are starting to roll out, for example, the Lenovo yoga slim 7, which is apparently the world’s first 8 core x86 ultra thin and guys no offense to AMD. But this is exciting, because AMD laptops have traditionally kind of you know they kind of suck. So early looks at the mobile processor line up, show parts with high core counts, great performance and potentially decent battery life.
I think alex is working on a review of one right now and she’s mine. That’S what’s that now it’s time for quick bits brought to you by manscaped, I don’t think that’s their official jingle, but they used to think about it.

The current health crisis is forcing companies to use AI in a bigger way and faster than they might have anticipated.
Facebook, Google and Twitter are turning to automated moderation systems, as employees increasingly worked from home and Google’s self-driving subsidiary wham-o is turning to fully autonomous operation, so safety drivers don’t have to be exposed to travelers. All the humans are dead, only a machine. At least there will be self-driving cars. It seems like whether we like it or not. This pandemic could lead to us all having personal, robotic assistance that can go out and do our bidding outside for us. That’S a very optimistic interpretation of what this will all lead to, but I’m gon na Riley I’m honoured.
Chronos group has released ray tracing extensions for the open source, Vulcan graphics, API, meaning we might see fancy vector-based graphics in more games going forward and getting decent ray tracing performance might not cost an arm and a leg either in terms of hardware capabilities. As Vulcans method will apparently allow offloading of some of the workload to the CPU, we all got to share the load in these dark times. James tesla has released the model y with deliveries starting to roll out a year after its unveiling. The deliveries are actually beginning around six months ahead of schedule, thanks to the model Y being built on the same chassis as the model 3, so people will receive their new cars just in time to stay inside whoopsies.
Speaking of bad timing, internet providers – spectrum is offering 60 days of free internet service for households with at least one student and they’re, even offering free installation of network equipment again cool. But like can you install it from outside the house to stay away? Oh wait. You’Re mouthing me ah and there’s nothing like a crisis to foster innovation. China’S facial recognition, company han wang has figured out how to recognize faces that are covered by breathing maths with 95 % accuracy, and the one they’re using in London is like 20 percent, accurate dang. China they’re a dictatorship, but they get it done. Speaking of being done, this episode is come back on Friday for more tech news, because the tech news doesn’t self isolate, spread.
It’S one thing we want to spread is: that is that I can make that joke. .
