@@pijubjelidlo7840 thank you. Don't worry I am pretty quick.

Nope..... Patents and software is provided by blackberry...... TLC just manage the phone business as partner....

@@Anuj-ew7mv I'm not sure what patents you're talking about, but I did have a feeling they're involved in software. After all, they're a software company now, aren't they? So it'd make sense for them to get involved. Anyway, the lines above are just for fun.

@@DarkOracleOfDeath eg. Keyboard with track pad patent...

Lolz..

China already has SMIC, but it would take *years* for them to catch up to ARM/TSMC's capabilities.

Reminds me of the recent Linus video of the expensive Chinese cpu that runs x86

@@SirFaceFone The nature of semiconductor manufacturer is inherently winner takes all. SMIC needs revenue to have R&D budget, but very few companies gave SMIC a try because they were more expensive and inferior. Even Chinese companies didn't give SMIC business -- less than 2 percent of Chinese chips manufacturing went to SMIC in 2018. Now with Huawei ban, Chinese company started to realize that it's actually a good idea to feed domestic foundry, who knows what's going to happen. Also, SMIC is not as behind as people in think it is. It's at most 3-5 years behind and Moore's law is approach its physical limit. The most state-of-the-art manufacturing is 7nm but in terms of market share, 7nm is less 1/3, with 14nm + still is majority marketshare. SMIC is currently finalizing 14nm, with 7nm in development.

@@hmmm7363 it doesn't matter if you develop the tech, it matters when it's cheap and affordable.

Very soon? So years or even decades of R&D mean nothing? People always assume money solves everything. China relies so much on export so being “self reliant” is just wishful thinking. You are also talking as if the Chinese government hasn’t been protecting those Chinese companies. Companies like Huawei are basically state owned.

Yeah judging from what happen to Nokia, new Blackberry maybe sell well at first because of nostalgia but will die out pretty quickly because people largely already moved on from 2000s

Little Chemie The new blackberries failed because they were absurdly overpriced. I had one, and I didn’t buy it because of nostalgia (I’m 17, and I didn’t even know basically anything about blackberry before it...) and I loved it (especially the keyboard btw), but not for that much money... They failed because of poor marketing and pricing. People should try them before stating something like this😅 (I mean, I know that not everyone likes those physical keyboards but a lot of people do, and they will never try one, that way...)

Thanks!

Problem with nebula. Here’s a customer feedback. The login / sign up is a let down. Installed. Wanted to login. Didn’t like it. Uninstalled. Idk. It’s not cool enough or easy enough ?

is nebula comparable to floatplane by linus media group? i mean, as a customer i would have to have many different contracts to many differrent services

I can like type 5x faster on my phone than my laptop.

I get what you mean, but you HAVE to admit that the amount for people who think like you are small, and the market for such a product would be limited. Most people now are used to software keyboards, not to mention autocorrect allows for faster typing, even if you make a few errors they'll just get fixed, maybe 10 years ago this idea would fly. Not to mention that the smartphone market is a ferocious thing, most small phone manufacturers are having a hard time competing with the big ones. I doubt blackberry will see much success from this endeavor, more likely they'll just waddle around mediocrity like they've been for the past 8 years.

Wdym with "will change that". Phones with physical keyboards have been a thing for a long time and they never took off, for good reasons.

I type faster on touchscreen than on physical keyboard.

You should feel sorry for the people that suffer because of the CCP

Because of the intelligent algorithm Tiktok has?

@@jl86_ Yep most of their phones seem to be decent, but nothing outstanding or unique, which is quite concerning as their sales and market share are now dwindling. Hopefully the recent investment by Google/Nokia help them out.

Why wouldn't TikTok just IPO on its own if that was the plan?

You should receive an email with instructions. Check you spam and promotions folders. If you don't see it anywhere, contact CuriosityStream support and they will help you out :)

I'm preparing a full story behind video on that right as we speak. Will take a while to come out though

@@TheFridayCheckout awesome. Looking forward to hear your opinion on this matter. Keep up the good work on the channel!

Yes, they are. The file looks fine when played locally, but I think KZfaq doesn't like dark gradients. I'll try to switch the background around eventually to get rid of them

@@TheFridayCheckout It really doesent. its way easier to spot this on dark areas in games. Even on 4k60 gameplay, dark areas have awful artifacting.

You never heard of China? lol

Technically yes, but their quality isn't nearly as good as TSMC, so the chips they make wouldn't be competitive on the high end

no, SMIC also use usa tech.

Well, nobody is as good as TSMC 🤷‍♂️

US wants to control everything...

100% blantant totalitarian moves is what it is. "Free market!" Except when you go against US interest. This shit makes me so angry! 😡

Samer M China needs to get a taste of their own medicine....they have no shame in banning foreign companies and stealing Intellectual Property.....the Huawei ban is great news.

@@boredpotato2291 China doesn't bad any companies. Companies choose not to comply with the law, so forgo their rights to do that illegal business in China.

Bumpkin Yeah, the laws that are against privacy, freedom of speech and the ability to criticise the government right?....any government that is afraid of criticism is not fit to rule.

Hmm, we have an Android app, but I don't think we have an Android TV app yet. TV apps are definitely planned for later though

@@TheFridayCheckout Thanks! I ll try nebula on Android

Solution: China Reunion Taiwan （People‘s republic of China Reunion Republic of China）

Raymond Zhao oh yeah true except the rest of the world would be pretty mad especially USA

A freemium model is very unlikely as ad based business models are precisely what we want to escape from, but I'll submit the suggestion for region based pricing, thanks!

You get both curiositystream + nebula for $14.79 which is ₹1,108.20 per year. It's less than ₹100 per month, I don't know how is that expensive! 🙄

Glad you do 😅

S8.

The last numbers we've published were 100k paying subscribers, all with no external investors 🥳

Hah, maybe one day!

Yeah no

Glad to hear!

I can type without looking at the keyboard.

I also can type without looking at the keyboard. And it is even easier and a lot faster with swipe typing

I type without looking at on screen keyboard

Why? US is considering TikTok will threatening their monopoly on controling information and swing public opinion. US has label it as security threat as long as it is own by a firm own by Chinese or run by Chinese/Chinese decendent. CNbC days the deal will be annonce today.

They can't, they have to sell ARM because they don't have money. They can't afford to buy anyone right now

Glad to hear! :)

US could force TSMC to drop Mediatek... Thats why.... But its good for tech industry... Now Chinese companies will come up with their own alternatives

@wefwq10 banned from selling phones to the us? who cares, there's the rest of the world available for selling chips

@@nothing9220 but tsmc and mediatek these are not even us companies so why do they have to listen to us? yes they might be using some us tech but isn't that how the whole world works? sharing knowledge and information?

Mediatek uses US technology (read: patent), so if they dont oblige, Mediatek might possibly couldnt make any chips at all

@@hendyir29 which us technology actually? last time i checked they use arm cores and mali gpu which is also by arm so how is mediatek using us technology?

Ah, I was just going to say that it actually is 😅 Good idea, I'll add Nebula links in each video going forward!

Trump only watches the dumbest cable TV available; so it's a stretch.
