00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.920
look i know what you guys are thinking tech news is easy it just grows on trees

00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:07.920
but you're wrong

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:16.480
it grows in the ground and you've really got to yank on it sometimes that's tech

00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:20.880
news right after his spacex starship blew its top during a pressure test

00:00:18.560 --> 00:00:26.160
which is apparently not a huge setback elon musk took to the internet to get

00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:28.320
even more flack for the ridiculous

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.399
design of the new tesla cyber truck welcome to the cybertruck

00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:37.760
unveil i mean look at that thing it's like a

00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:41.920
de-aging snapchat filter but for polygons it looks like it was designed

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:46.320
when tesla had to take your kids to work day it looks like what happens when you

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:49.600
try to wedge a truck into a parking spot it's what a truck looks like before you

00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:52.640
downloaded the right driver being as ugly as it is i'm not surprised that it

00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:56.079
doesn't come with any mirrors it's like a delorean and an x-wing had a baby wait

00:00:54.640 --> 00:01:00.800
is this the halo warthog with the low-spec gamer treatment all right guys

00:00:58.160 --> 00:01:07.840
we're running out of good angles here anywho it starts at 39 000 us dollars

00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:09.680
but there's also a 70 000 model with 14

00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:15.360
000 pounds of towing capacity and that'll do zero to 60 and under 2.9

00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:17.280
seconds oh right and there's also an atv

00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:21.920
that can be charged in the bed of the truck the panels are made from the same

00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:28.159
stainless steel alloy that's used in the starship rocket and they are bulletproof

00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:32.400
the glass was also supposed to be incredibly resilient but for some reason

00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:37.360
musk felt the need to demo this on stage when the truck clearly wasn't ready yet

00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:42.400
i don't know i i'd still consider getting one as long as it's Windows stop

00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:46.799
crashing after teasing it earlier this year valve

00:01:44.720 --> 00:01:51.520
delivered the official trailer for half-life alex yesterday and i'd be

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:54.960
lying if i said it didn't give me the tingles

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:59.920
the game is a prequel set between the events of half-life 1 and 2 but fans are

00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:04.560
combing through the trailer and are starting to be hopeful that it could

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:10.239
bleed directly into the post episode 2 story valve is apparently interested in

00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:15.760
pushing forward with the franchise but temper your expectations harden your

00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:19.920
hearts we're all just going to get hurt again aren't we a nice bonus bit of news

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:24.160
that came along with the game's trailer is that all owners of the valve index

00:02:22.160 --> 00:02:27.920
that's me and even those who only bought index controllers will get the game for

00:02:26.160 --> 00:02:31.680
free along with some other in-game goodies i mean i don't think any of them

00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:36.319
are sufficient consolation for 12 years of waiting but that's okay

00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:40.879
this is a happy day and NVIDIA launched the gtx 1650 super today with very

00:02:39.040 --> 00:02:44.640
little fanfare we forgot about it we never even got one they sent some

00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:48.720
reviewers the card but they did not provide drivers for testing it um some

00:02:46.959 --> 00:02:52.800
outlets like tech powerup and hardware unboxed we're able to modify the

00:02:50.480 --> 00:02:57.680
publicly available NVIDIA drivers to add support for the card but the initial

00:02:54.640 --> 00:03:00.000
consensus seems to be that the new 159

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:03.519
graphics processor is well it's actually pretty great value at its price point so

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:07.040
it's really unclear why NVIDIA apparently wanted to avoid any reviews

00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:13.680
coming out on launch day maybe they were just bashful maybe they were afraid of

00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:15.440
competition from stadia

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.599
in other budget GPU news german publication heist

00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:25.519
has put up a review of the Radeon rx 5500 showing it beating the vanilla gtx

00:03:22.959 --> 00:03:28.640
1650 so that might be a decent lower powered option whenever the cards

00:03:26.959 --> 00:03:32.159
actually make it to the market and hopefully they even come with drivers

00:03:30.239 --> 00:03:35.120

stadia has had a heck of a launch week and the latest snafu is chromecast

00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:25.120
everywhere are overheating players are reporting cut connections after playing

00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:30.720
stadia for only three to four hours on their tvs i mean who knows maybe this is

00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:35.840
a nintendo style reminder for players to take a break and go outside in other

00:04:33.919 --> 00:04:41.520
news amazon is gearing up to launch a cloud gaming competitor in 2020 so

00:04:39.280 --> 00:04:45.520
that's great we should have lots of options for crappy laggy gaming

experiences very soon ladies and gentlemen yet actually no

00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:54.320
i'm sure it's like fine-ish as long as it's fine except when it's not yesterday

00:04:52.320 --> 00:04:59.440
the us government granted microsoft a license to sell products to huawei again

00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:04.560
so it looked like the ice in the trade war was starting to thaw but then the

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:09.440
fcc voted to block u.s companies from buying huawei equipment so we're back to

00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:13.280
we're back to frosty sorry huawei everyone on the playground just says

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:17.120
you're a little tattletail so they don't want to play

00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:21.919
with you renders of the galaxy s11 have been leaked showing an iphone 11 and

00:05:19.280 --> 00:05:26.240
pixel 4 style square camera bump on the back along with a hole punch selfie

00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:31.840
camera that has now been moved to the center i guess right now it's uh in the

00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:34.720
phone world it's kind of hit to be square

00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:40.400

00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:45.840
than 70 sources including fandango movietickets.com amc and more the

00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:49.759
technology is basically like autofill on steroids there's a couple of points

00:05:47.840 --> 00:05:54.560
where the assistant needs your input but for the rest it'll do it itself

00:05:53.039 --> 00:05:57.919
it's beautiful isn't it i remember when it was just a little

00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:01.680
google now now look at it

00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:06.400
tying shoelaces and collecting vast amounts of personal data all by itself

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:11.360
that's adorable and there's still no reminders for google suite users yeah

00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:15.919
