00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.720
Colton have faith what he keeps on telling me he's bad at heckling come on

00:00:04.319 --> 00:00:10.400
you can't swim you can't do this do it stop you're heckling me say something

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:14.639
mean the news cycle has been dominated by

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:18.800
russia's invasion of the ukraine and the tech world has been a big part of that

00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:22.800
we already reported on russia blocking facebook but meta has fired back by

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:26.880
restricting and demonetizing russian state actors while microsoft has

00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:30.880
followed suit by targeting outlets rt and sputnik by removing them from

00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:34.960
microsoft start and banning their ads twitter is slapping labels on any tweet

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:38.719
from russian state media and youtube is demonetizing a number of russian state

00:00:37.040 --> 00:00:43.600
channels connected to putin and the regime and Intel and AMD have both

00:00:41.680 --> 00:00:47.280
stopped selling chips to russia after the country was hit by the import

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:50.480
sanctions of course it remains to be seen how much of this will curb the

00:00:48.879 --> 00:00:54.559
russian aggression but the chip restrictions will definitely be something to keep an eye on as the

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:58.559
kremlin will definitely be missing the chip imports if more hardware is needed

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:02.960
for applications such as military use and supercomputing the steam deck was

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:06.159
released last week to great fanfare but just as everyone was getting their

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:09.280
reservations in it appears that valve has already been thinking about a

00:01:07.520 --> 00:01:13.760
follow-up steam deck that has improved specs slow down there guys in an

00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:18.080
interview with ign gabe newell laid fears of some gamers by stating that the

00:01:16.080 --> 00:01:22.320
current steam deck models will not increase in price but that higher end

00:01:20.479 --> 00:01:26.400
models would definitely be on the table you all pointed out that in the pc space

00:01:24.479 --> 00:01:30.799
it doesn't take long for computers to either become faster or cheaper and so

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:35.680
the more expensive steam deck with faster storage and higher capacity

00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:39.920
actually outsold the cheaper base model even in this economy with those factors

00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:44.240
in mind you'll said it would make a lot of sense to keep pushing the platform's

00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:49.680
performance but no word on when we might see a steam deck pro or steam deck 2

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:54.560
deck harder it's my favorite one like a nice hard deck golden yeah i do okay

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:59.040
remember those old-school computers where the system and the keyboard share

00:01:56.240 --> 00:02:02.079
the same chunky chassis like a laptop well it looks like apple might be

00:02:00.320 --> 00:02:07.119
bringing that idea back into the modern age but instead of it looking like an

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:09.920
old apple 2 which was large and could

00:02:07.119 --> 00:02:14.160
place a crt monitor in it a new recently filed patent shows that a small light

00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:18.800
wedge-shaped keyboard that contains a full desktop pc with just one cable for

00:02:16.959 --> 00:02:23.280
data power and display out that's pretty cool actually the idea appears to have

00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:27.840
something you can throw in your bag take with you and just plug into a display

00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:32.319
anywhere just add a mouse and track pad apple is already promising quite a bit

00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:37.920
of computing punch with its high-tech door stop so we expect it'll have apple

00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:42.160
silicon like an m1 or m2 at its heart we're not sure when this might hit the

00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:46.640
market but hopefully for apple it'll find a real use case as you could always

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:50.879
you know just use a laptop that's what i was saying why would you have a keyboard

00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:55.440
without a display and a trackpad when you can just yeah anyway now it's time for quick bits

when you purchase through the link below anyway let's move on to the quick bits

00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:36.159
if you're still trying to buy a graphics card pricing is out of hand and very

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:40.879
hard to stomach but tom's hardware just reported that prices on ebay are down an

00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:46.720
average of 11 this month compared to january but even with the drop cards are

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:48.720
still going for well above msrp the 3070

00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:52.480
originally released at 500 is currently selling for an average of

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:57.599
988 ouch but don't worry you can make it all

00:03:54.480 --> 00:03:58.879
back by using the card to mine crypto

00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:03.680
oh that's a boo boo yeah thank you Colton

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:08.879
tiktok is known for having rather short videos but bite dance is actually

00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:13.519
extending the max length of the videos from 3 to 10 minutes

00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:18.000
this follows last year's update which allowed 3-minute videos from the

00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:20.880
previous 60-second limit tick tock says it wants to give creators more

00:04:19.359 --> 00:04:25.360
flexibility and allow them to post things like tutorials which require more

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:29.440
than 3 minutes personally i'm hoping to see someone take advantage of these new

00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:32.880
rules and create the next 10 minutes of mayo scene from rocco's modern life i

00:04:31.840 --> 00:04:38.560
don't understand that reference do you Colton nope i just want 10 minutes of shrek's a phone yeah

00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:42.720
do you have an ipad and you're wondering why there's no dedicated instagram app

00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:47.120
there isn't meta has finally come out and gave us a reason not enough people

00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:50.880
want one what that's a terrible reason the information was revealed after the

00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:55.759
head of instagram replied to marquez on twitter this weekend instagram's team is

00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:59.680
apparently focusing more on adapting to how users are interacting on the

00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:04.400
platform specifically how users are sharing more content on pms than

00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:08.880
publicly apparently they do hope to get to it at some point but uh lord knows

00:05:06.960 --> 00:05:12.240
when that'll be and maybe it's right around the time we'll see half-life 3.

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:16.800
speaking of valves they haven't accepted cryptocurrency for payments on steam

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:22.240
since 2017. we're just finding out why now turns out it's not because gabe noel

00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:24.000
is just hates twitter crypto evangelists

00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:28.160
it's because half of the bitcoin transactions on steam were fraudulent

00:05:26.479 --> 00:05:31.199
and valve didn't want to have those people as customers yeah no crap that's

00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:36.400
very fair newell didn't give more details on the nature of the fraud but it's clear

00:05:34.960 --> 00:05:40.320
you'll need to go somewhere else to spend your hard mined crypto with your

00:05:38.880 --> 00:05:44.960
988 3070 dick and the next pair of games in

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:49.680

come on the colors aren't even across each other on the color wheel and anyway

00:05:51.840 --> 00:05:58.400
as a tradition you'll find the new starters water fire and grass and a new

00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:03.919
region which this time appears to be based on southern european locales such

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.440
as italy or spain the games are due out late this year so you might as well

00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:10.560
