Hey thanks for keeping the metaverse news consistent. Gives me a good spot to untangle my headphones without missing anything important.
😂
swish
10/10 hit the spot
This comment is underrated. And i cant even see the dislikes.
Sir i'll let you know that reading your comment has brightened my day, so thank you.
Worked for Amazon for five months, and I can tell you that their high turnover is their own fault. If they didn't treat their people like consumable robots and focus on numbers above all else, maybe people would be more likely to actually like working there and stay for longer.
Your unskilled labor is no longer required, meet AmBot.
Job hopper... always complaining.
@@ImAManMann
Odd, i thought people in the west championed free markets or something. Like if i buy Dawn this week because it was cheaper, i'm participating in capitalism, but if someone leaves Amazon for a less exploitative opportunity, they're somehow a "job hopper".
@@ImAManMann you're right he should have stayed at a shitty job for the rest of his life like you 😂
@@anivicuno9473 we also like humor.
The biggest controversy with Microsoft's Copilot is that it has not been respecting rights to use (or not use) the code that it's recommending, since that code comes from the large Github database. People are angry. Yikes.
It seems like Copilot's actual end-game is to generate a supreme court ruling
sue me Karen😂
It doesn’t copy it exactly (very often) and even if it does they have a filter to prevent that - however, some things could slip past the filter if they changed it a bit and arguably learning from the code is a form of using it, so maybe it would have been safer to only train it on permissively licensed code
‘Nothing will not not be releasing in the US… so they’re getting exactly what they want’
I laughed so hard 😭😭😭
(willy wonky yelling GIF)
The joke was actually better phrased than that "So I guess North-American fans of Nothing will get what the wanted after all..."
My gf worked at Amazon for a whopping 6 hours. She then had a panic attack and they locked her in a room on her own to calm down. I was working that day, and so we both walked into the “first aid room” where they did the most pathetic health check ever, and we both quit there and then.
If Amazon is scared that they’ve depleted the entire workforce, they should actually do something to entice people to work for them rather than complain that nobody wants to be locked in a staff room during a physiological meltdown for £10/hour!
Seriously though, never work for Amazon. The pay is pretty decent, but you’ll hate your entire life for the duration of your time there. It’s the worst job I’ve ever had, and I’ve worked some pretty shitty jobs in my time.
That's pretty much my experience too. I lasted a whole 10 days.
Working conditions are the worst I've ever experienced and I've also had some pretty shitty jobs. Need to pay the bills right? So nothing is beneath me, except working for Amazon, simply for the way they treat people.
They’re on outsourcing.
Very interested to see how Amazon will manage to turnover their robots as well
Robots working at Amazon will be the reason why our future robot overlords become overlords. Might as well save time, skip a step and programming them to hate us from the get go.
i heard a lot of the amazon robots are already applying at USPS after fedex tried to destroy them all.
BREAKING NEWS: Machines develop sentience just so that they can quit their jobs at Amazon
The robots will end up getting fired for taking too many charging breaks. Jeff Bezos will send out a memo that all robots are to charge in their downtime and to stop leaving used batteries in plastic bags in the delivery vans.
I support the amazon robots' right to unionize!
I'd love to see that board meeting at Amazon.
"Yeah, we could cut our margins a hair and make the workspace actually tolerable, but it's cheaper in the short term to make robots and cry booths."
Bold of you to assume Amazon executives would even consider any ideas that don't increase their profit margins
Okay? And? If you don't like it, quit. Working at Amazon is not a career.
@@t_c5266 Quitting is not an option for many people because they can't afford to live without a job. Maybe you should leave your gated community once in a while and see how working class people are doing
@@Ry_TSG then they should have made better decisions in life and I have no sympathy. Learn a trade. It's free.
@@t_c5266 Nothing in life is free, and worse yet, not all markets have open positions for most people to be able to quit jobs like amazon. I understand that you're doing well, but please do understand that whatever works for you probably doesn't work for a lot of people for a lot of different reasons. I am well off in my country but I am not telling everyone to quit whatever they're doing and start programming.
I have a M2 and love it. It's a 2021 in black with a 6 speed manual. Definitely would recommend.
mine is a 500gb but only pcie 3.0
The better m2 for sure

I cut my TV cable over 10 years ago because of high prices for channels I don't watch...Channels that served
"Canadian" content that even as a kid, I found it strange how these types of shows seemed so shoe-horned in as if they were getting special treatment. Looks like my only options is to either write to my representative or use a VPN forever even if it slows me down.
My thoughts exactly.
We have that same stupid law in Brazil, still not applied to CZcams but I bet they'll see Canada doing it and copy it.
@@FastSloth87 If they ever try to do that with CZcams in Brazil, I swear to god...
I'm always going out of my way to try and evade Brazilian content in the entire internet, but lately Google seems to take my IP location into account regardless of my PC locale and Google settings themselves... that sucks major ass
I would love to the moon and back to see Google Netflix Apple on Disney all coordinate together and just ban Canada from their networks because of the law and watch Canadians lose access to the entire media system.
Keep your stick on the ice.
Github copilot violates the GPL
Also,
non-free refers to freedom not price. The complain against github was that they were forcing people to use proprietary software.
i've try it, it's so nasty hahaha, 30% of my code is made by this Ai hehe
@@macrozel-id ok spaghetti man
sue me Karen
@@fffUUUUUU found the billion dollar company simp
Does it violate GPL? It’s hard to tell because it’s only learning from it and not copying it which is usually allowed, however it does sometimes copy things exactly but then they have a filter for that
Oh you were actually pretty close with the chinese name pronunciation 😅
To be fair, it was four words you were trying to read as one, so four times as close.
“My idea of optimising drivers just looks like Reboot. It’s a great show.”
Red from OSP will be happy to know there are others holding the flag for Reboot.
I honestly was not expecting to hear about that show from another channel
I'm half expecting red to appear in the comments as if speaking about reboot summoned her
Reboot was such a Hidden gem, it's such a shame it didn't have enough airtime outside of Canada
Who's red?
@@EikottXD one of the hosts of the CZcams channel Overly Sarcastic Productions. She usually talks about media and mythology, and often bring up Reboot as an example of tropes done well.
and Woolie, don't forget about the OG Reboot defender
I'm not too suprised that Intel can't quite keep up with AMD and Nvidia with their first dGPUs. However I'd really like if they at least try to compete by pricing their GPUs aggressively. There are no bad GPUs only bad prices
Exactly, all depends on price point. Plus Nvidia needs competition, they've been gouging the market for a while.
"There are no bad GPUs only bad prices"
You haven't owned many gpus have you?
There are some absolute dumpster fire's that aren't worth it at any price.
and bad drivers that yes, makes the things worthless
@@hnmAck I think there were rumors that part of the reason for delays was issues with drivers. If thats the case, hopefully they get it figured out because they're already way behind.
"There are no bad GPUs only bad prices"
The last decade of AMD GPU's have shown us that there are bad GPU's and if there was more competition they wouldn't get the constant passes people love to write for them. It's why AMD cards could found on shelves while Nvidia was constantly sold out.
OK so why even market the phone in the US and CA if you're not even going to sell it? 🤦🏻♂️
Just like the OnePlus 1.
Same story different title.
Are they marketing it there tho? All I've seen is youtubers, and those with pretty global audiences.
Didn't amazon already have those floor robots thingies. I am positive I have seen them before.
They’ve had robots In their warehouses for a while doing various things, but they haven’t been able to completely/mostly replace humans yet
Yeah similar robots exist for year's now that are able to transfer those Racks I don't know what the news was about.
@@CASyHD. they’re supposedly more powerful when it comes to payload capacity.
I guess the chip shortage finally hit Apple, especially given that the A16 is apparently still using the 5nm process.
Only at Apple do we hear “still using the 5nm process” in Q2 2022.
Meanwhile Intel, AMD, and Nvidia just getting access to TSMC N5.
I wouldn’t say that’s a bad thing but it’s time for them to go straight to 3nm next iteration. Let’s be real: the target market for the M2 Air doesn’t need that power-and the M2 (13”)* Pro shouldn’t exist. A15 is already ahead of the competition of raw numbers and benchmarks that most iPhone users don’t care about in Geekbench…
@@KellyWu04 Do they make phones?
Apple doesn't have a chip shortage, the work at Blender took too long so they put in an M2 delay on the 3nm line. Once the know-how for hardware ray tracing is folded in, the 3nm line will be up and humming (looks like Q4 of this year for a start).
Apple gently dislikes Intel, but they loathe NVIDIA.
@@tatsukialmologist why are you comparing a MacBook to an iPhone?

I recently learned that bags of milk are not a universal Canadian experience. I met an Ontarian that had no idea what it was.
I think you've been lied to or they've never been in a grocery store. We have them all over Ontario. Unless they're from some ungodly place like Moose Factory.
Reboot references are always a plus in my book. Especially in the same ep as metaverse bits.
IF Canadian bill C11 is passed into law, TechLinked will be forced to include ONE canadian news story every episode!
The Canadian headline each day will be that Colton was fired. Again.
@@JWooden271 If they do that, it would be glorious. And in every episode they'll be shocked that it happened. I'm curious how many interesting tales of what lead to it can they summon.
Honestly the two controversies you mentioned wrt Copilot pale in comparison to the main one. They are straight up stealing from open source devs (including copy-left licensed works) to train their AI. Expect class-action lawsuits in the near future.
Well they aren’t copying code, and copyleft does not exclude learning from existing code to write new code (as a human could too) - so no, it does steal code as it generates new code from scratch, its not retrieving data from a database.
@@nolram it doesn't "learn" the way you or i would and simply blurts out what it thinks should come next (after the method definition that is). It might be "blending" between different codebases to do that but it would still be a copy. In fact if that risk wasn't there they wouldn't have a section in their FAQ about copies of publically available code and how to avoid those suggestions from Copilot.
@@Xankill3r A neural net learns and predicts the next word in a sentence. That is literally all it does; a certain word has a certain likelihood to occur in a certain context. It does "blend" or copy codebases; the disclaimer is more that some bits of code may be used a lot in a variety of places (libraries such as dearimgui or stb), so the AI may recreate them to some extent.
@@nolram I didn't imply otherwise. Still that learning is trivial compared to human learning - it's simply looking at patterns. And that's why it cannot be given the same leeway of fair-use that a human might otherwise be for learning from existing code to write something new. And believe me - the FAQ thing is serious stuff. They got a lot of flak when they initially started the beta when someone posted a gif of the AI copying the fast inverse root function from Quake line for line. Including the copyright notice on top.
@@Xankill3r Most likely because that line is commonly used. That is why it learned that pattern. Such things can indeed happen.
I'm sure the new bill won't affect us as long as we wave Canadian flags at all times, say "eh" in every sentence, and use the national anthem as our outro music.
C11 is a dangerous bill. You guys should make a full video on jt
A lot of thanks and appreciations for mentioning the first computer graphic cartoon! All these years, I believed, that thats impossible, that I`m the only one who actually knows what it is! Love you Riley.
Does that mean we will get a Canadian category on our favorite Hub?
🇨🇦Canadian corn is the best corn.
What even does "CanCon" look like in that context? Hmm... I guess I could do my own research. Brb.
Okay, I'm back, and everything feels sticky. So I'm guessing it's mostly just higher in maple syrup content.

Wow I did not expect a Reboot reference. Love it lol.
5:58 Funny that. Friend of mine just got fired from an Amazon distro for picking up a stress ball she found on the ground, and using it instead of "throwing it away".
Unsafe, unfair and hostile work environments? Gee I wonder why the turnover rate is so high...
I love "Reboot" ! One Canada's best shows! I'd also recommend the "Stargate" franchise, "Adderly" and "The X-Files".
You forgot Supernatural.
Did you _really_ just forget about Trailer Park Boys? The first few seasons are peak comedy.

Shout out for the Reboot reference!
Reboot is one of my favorite shows even still. I have the DVD box with both seasons and both movies!
The only company that is not in the Metaverse Standard Group is Linden Lab that has 20 years experience and pushes for more privacy and user protection, the company that already have a system for content identification that almost is like NFT disconnected from the Blockchain and also have s a standardized payment system.
The background music on the metaverse story was lit
If anything apple is the good guys with this metaverse crap. Them being staunchly anti metaverse is reasuring since the concept of the metaverse IS going to crumble
They're not anti-metaverse as such, they're just doing what they always do - working on their own closed ecosystem.
That said, it is still a good thing that they're not getting involved with whatever dystopian nightmare Zuck wants to create.
About the only good thing I can say about Apple
Every time I see metaverse mentioned in the media, my dislike for it increases exponentially.
3:20 from now on I will always remember to drink a bag of milk in times when patience is required. Thank you.
Riley, how much does C-11 affect LMG?
I was considering buying MBP AIR M2 version with 10-Core GPU and 16GB RAM … In Switzerland it would cost 1919.00 CHF (1996$)… REALLY?!
Anyway I just ended up buying MBP PRO M1pro 16inch… for 2300chf - new. Yeah it’s thicker and a bit heavy but it should handle all processing I professionally do. AND IT’S BIG.
I could still consider MBP AIR if they make version with 14-16 inch.
It has been 15 days since Talk Linked. Talk Linked when???
But that twist at the end, where you said you lied. Noice. 👍
2:28 Great looks like I will be using one of those VPNs finally.
I'm glad they snagged Riley up from the NCIX yard sale.
I really felt that Reboot reference
The funny thing is that New Yorkers used to drink milk sold in bags too! Many people forget about Marble Farms. Anyway, it was meant to be a unique to Canada joke and it does not completely fall flat since Marble Farms no longer exists.
I love Reboot. You guys remember it? It was on Toonami before Dragonball Z, so you’d get home from school and watch it while you waited for DBZ.
I don't know... I actually really do love the touchbar...
Thanks for news.
Yeah, it's hilarious when Intel releases a brand new i3 13th gen that won't be able to compete with previous gen i5. :D
I'm thinking Intel just needs to optimize the drivers. (Sits back in my armchair and sips my Whiskey)
"Drink internet from a bag" got me 🤣
Haha, has there always been music in the background?
Best of luck to you guys dealing with C11
M2 sounds like it will be interesting when it hits the Ipads, I would be using it for Face Mocap and virtual cameras in Unreal Engine though, and not for more conventional means.
Prediction: Like all its other dedicated GPU ventures, Intel will probably give up on ARC, as well.
Or they will give up on arc and work on something else just to give up on that
We'll have to see. Gelsinger may be able to convince the board to let him dump a fortune into the discreet market for long term success.
Everyone keeps forgetting that the new MacBook Air costs 1500$ if you want the full fat 10 core gpu
Meanwhile the 1300$ pro already has it
so for users who were in GitHub CoPilot preview program will have to pay?
the exhaustion of local labor pools made me kek whole-heartedly
2:40 Are Bob and Doug McKenzie still available? They know how to fulfill Canadian content requirements the right way. 🤣
Reboot shaped my childhood, great reference!
0:45 but I love my touchbar 😢
OMG reboot!! Gotta watch it again 🤣
I don’t get it… why wouldn’t the M1pro chip do better than the M2? This is kind of the same for most CPU makers when a new gen shows up.
These guys hate apple, so they will try to find any criticism they can.
I don't think it's said in tone of surprise, more like informative just in case the viewer is out of the loop.
As for "these guys hate Apple", well kinda? They're PC guys sure, but every single time they reviewed an M1 based Mac they praised them a lot, specifically the chip itself. They mostly criticized Apple BS marketing and the walled garden, which as a Mac user myself, yeah I agree.
@@AlejandroLZuvic It's not just their walled garden and BS marketing, but its also their anti-consumer practices which are apart of it as well. In fairness they do have a dedicated Mac channel where Apple is praised for everything they do mostly, so I think that's reasonable on the PC vs Mac balance. I think LTT tries to be fair to Apple but those few issues are generally HUGE issues for anyone who isn't about the Apple Way.
@@vjmtz that’s got nothing to do with what’s been stated but go off
@@vjmtz yes, they criticize that too. Rightly so.
John from Mac Address is two steps forward one step backwards. He criticized the Studio Display pricing and in a turn that I didn't see coming he taught us a history lesson on Apple displays, which I kinda have forgotten how good they used to be. He tried to show the M1 Pro/Max in professional environments and while the video didn't quite work for me, he was fair on showing that some software isn't just there.
I don't quite remember all of his videos but he's not religiously fanatic over Apple, which other channels are.
Are they making a National Twich Board of Canada or a Canadian Streaming Corporation?
the intel drivers are only broken on windows on Linux do they seem to work fine
Are you talking abt Ark series or already released ones?
you got my like for the Reboot reference!
1:30 什么都能测， means “test everything”
I mean, those robts that the amazone has only just started using have been in use in other industries for years. I'm surprised it took them this long to adopt them.
Amazon: averting humane working conditions at ANY cost. (So that it's CEO can become a 'Space Cowboy'.
Yes, Jeff.. I noticed your Jamiroquai reference. And just... No.
What WOULD make you cool, is setting an example for the industry; in living wages, pleasure of working, retaining employees.
Make sure Amazon employees feel like they ARE in fact working for the most valuable company in the world, instead of feeling expendable & underappreciated, and being underpaid.
That would raise your coolness factor by 1000x. (The eyeliner and shiny head wax can't do that it on their own))
Has tech linked always had bgm why have I never noticed it 🤔 lol
Kinda surprised you didn’t talk about the cloudflare outages
Honestly most YT I watch is from Canada and I'm not even Canadian, so..... Good job!
I wonder what the likelihood of LMG moving to the US is if C11 goes through, seeing as Linus just bought a house, plus a couple buildings. I know he said his profits really don't come from YT (iirc, at least), but this bill could likely make a noticeable dent. I've seen a few other larger CA youtubers thinking about packing up and going to the US if this goes through.
Hopefully there's some people in that senate that have a brain and can see that this'll hurt Canada in the long run. Doubt it, though.
I don't think Linus is moving LMG out of Canada. That ship has sailed, they've invested a lot in their current location. They own multiple buildings and their employees are in the Vancouver area.
That's why Luke is always joking to Linus when they talk about how expensive Vancouver is, Luke said that Linus should've listened to him when they were moving out of the Langley house where Luke suggested they move out of Vancouver if not out of the country itself.
One thing I could see is Linus does another big expansion to build offices in other countries far into the future of LMG.
But why is c11 a Problem for canadian CZcamsrs? They create the canadian content CZcams then hast to Show more of in canada.
Or do they get more Rules how to make their content?
@@XielefR because it's a bill that promotes what the Canadian government wants to promote, not freethinkers, not Canadian producers, big mainstream Canadian channels that are going to push random bullshit ideological media on all of the people in Canada just like they always do.
It's going to hurt people like LGT pretty badly because now they're not going to be recommended to Canadians just like everyone else, even though they're a Canadian channel. They aren't bullshit propaganda so they're not going to get promoted.
Bad line general, I am damn proud we have the first amendment in the United States.

I have no problem with an old design as long as it’s a good one and if they find ways to shrink other things give me a bigger battery with that extra space don’t shrink the whole thing. Unless the battery is lasting at least two full days so if you go on a day trip and end up stranded hopefully the extra battery life will get you by
Not sure if this is the first time you guys have brought it up, but thanks for mentioning Bill-C11. It would completely change youtube as we know it.
5:50 i laughed way to hard at this
Watching Riley's tech linked is so entertaining. This guy needs to go Hollywood lol.
As usual, people start to notice apple starting to fall behind, so apple makes a huge leap and then... Goes back to slowly iterating on it while raising prices.
M1 is great, M2 could be better.
18% CPU and 35% GPU improvements over a single generation is a slow iteration for you?
What was Intel's improvements inter-generation between Ivy Bridge and Comet Lake? Glacier speed?
@@AlejandroLZuvic the real issue is the price to performance ratio, 1200$ for the base Air no longer make it appeals to the average customers
If it's next gen, it should provide a better price/performance ratio compared to last gen.
@@TwelveLetter956 I mean, kinda true? The XPS 13 Plus is the closest PC in terms of size, build quality, etc etc and it's $1400. I think the XPS CPU is somewhat faster than the M2 in some cases and it comes with 512GB, but for the rest, same memory amount, less resolution, worse webcam, worse battery life...
The regular XPS and other laptops are more similar to the M1 MacBook (at $1000). I mean, I'm not saying it's cheap, but it's not so outrageously overpriced compared to the competition.
@@AlejandroLZuvic the point is that 18% cpu performance reletive to last time is irrelevant when the price has gone up significantly too.
Especially when there's already the m1 Pro and max versions that fit on the same scale for price to performance.
A new generation that fits neatly into the price/performance scale of the old generation might as well just be a continuation of the old generation.
And Intel is hardly the greatest example of what generations are normally like. Without AMD, Intel do the exact same thing I'm criticising apple for now.
@@AlejandroLZuvic 18% CPU improvement, 20% price increase. Kinda ended up in the same place we started.
Why doesn’t M2 have VVC H266 hardware encode and decode yet? Hopefully the A16 has it and so the M3 will idk ? Why are they going the AV1 route when they were so invested in H265 HEVC I mean they didn’t implement VP9 for a long time after HEVC and now the successor of VP9 AV1 is getting implemented first idk 🤷🏼♂️
