Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “We have achieved Zen 3…”.
As some of you found out this week, i’m kind of a minimalist so today we’re going to keep the jokes to a minimum, only serious tech stories that were told to me in confidence last night by your mom. It’S true, i was there too, oh right on schedule. Amd officially announced their ryzen 5000 series desktop processors at their where gaming begins event, not where productivity begins. Because that’s right amd says these chips will outperform intel’s 10th gen desktop cpus and gaming by up to 20 percent, giving team red enough confidence to actually price these parts slightly above team blue’s competitors for the first time in a while it’s happening.
The operation was a success, dr lisa sue amd’s, not releasing a new motherboard chipset for this launch. These chips can be used in existing 500 and 400 series boards with a bios update, but we also got a sneak peek at the 4k performance of the upcoming radeon rx 6000 series, graphics cards, placing it pretty much on par with the rtx 3080, but we’ll get More details on that on october 28th, while the four new cpus from the six core ryzen 5 5600x to the 16 core ryzen, 9 5950x, will be available november. 5Th wow really shows what can happen when you hire a medical doctor as your company’s ceo you’re not going to you’re, not going to correct me on that. I’M saved microsoft’s, head of gaming, phil spencer, reportedly told employees this week that the company’s xcloud game streaming service. Absolutely will end up on ios, even if he has to challenge tim apple.
Do a mud wrestling match to do it that she kind of looks like phil schiller. I’D pay to see that phil scheller’s gone, though i think microsoft is targeting 2021 for the potential release of a browser app that could stream xcloud’s library. A similar solution to the one used by amazon’s recently announced luna gaming service, but microsoft’s love hate situation with apple. Didn’T end there, they also published a blog post outlining 10 principles that the microsoft store on windows would adhere to based on guidelines from the coalition for app fairness, sound familiar.
That’S the industry group made up of epic games and other companies lobbying against apple’s restrictive, as they see it, app store policies, microsoft’s blog post doesn’t mention apple, but it’s pretty clear where microsoft’s loyalties lie here. Making this like a corporate passive-aggressive subtweet. That apple will, to be honest, probably not see or care about they’re above it, but something apple does care about, is iphones and ahead of the new models reveal on tuesday we’ve gotten some pretty substantial leaks from kang a leaker with a decent track record kang says: We’Ll be getting an iphone 12 12 pro 12 pro max and an iphone 12 mini with a 5.4 inch display and a 699 msrp nice.
Can i do the nice thing about a 699 69. Okay, apple may also finally bring back the magsafe charger design, but for the new iphones instead of max and a 99 homepod mini hot, on the heels of google’s 99 nest. Audio speaker, meanwhile, mark german, another reliable leaker wrote in bloomberg this week. That apple may be releasing its first arm-powered mac in november. I can’t wait to see the faces of all the mac users who open their shiny new macs for christmas and realizing horror that it doesn’t natively support x64 apps. Oh, they will be so upset because they know that then suddenly, a linus.

So click the link down below thanks, linus i’ll. Take the quick bits from here oracle and google’s 10-year legal dispute is finally coming to a head.
As this week the two companies supreme court case over google’s use of oracle’s java programming language began and initially it looks like the court is leaning in oracle’s favor. Despite basically, the entire software industry, leaning the other way because of oracle wins, it could completely change the way the law treats copyrighted content, especially remixes of such content that are ubiquitous on tick tock, for example, man. If tick tock actually survives this year, we might actually have to make an account.
You want to see me doing the dances right, i’m not going to do them. The nintendo switch modding community was shocked when members of team executor a group that produced and sold devices designed to get around copy protection on the switch were arrested last week. But apparently the problem wasn’t the circumvention of nintendo’s protections.
It was the selling of the devices, so as long as you aren’t trying to start an etsy store for artisanal rom hackers or something you should be safe, sony may be winning the console war. So far with a report claiming that 72 percent of next-gen console pre-orders were made for a ps5, but whether this david was in there, but whether this is bad news for microsoft is actually debatable. With their games launching on multiple xboxes and pc too, it seems like they just want you to sign up for game pass and forget that halo, infinite looked really ugly in the trailer game pass.
Have you heard a game pass? It’S a good deal. Apple paid! 288 thousand dollars to a group of white hat hackers that found 55 vulnerabilities in the company’s network after breaching it and hanging out there for three months. I remember a time when apple would sue these people instead of rewarding them. Maybe that mud wrestling match really made an impact they should have given them more and google’s. Waymo is opening up fully driverless taxi rides to the general public in phoenix making it one of the first fully autonomous robo-taxi services to launch in the u.s. Of course, elon musk wasn’t that impressed calling the service a highly specialized solution, whereas tesla’s approach is a general solution that will definitely arrive soon and not many years from now and oh just kidding one more look at this jellyfish robot, it’s a robot that swims, like A jellyfish, it’s fun, wouldn’t be fun to continue.
This episode, though, so come back on monday for more tech, news, it’ll be canadian thanksgiving watch. The episode come hang out, we’ll pretend to eat some turkey together, peanut butter, peanut butter, .
