00:00:01.079 --> 00:00:07.799
we could talk about tech news yeah

00:00:05.819 --> 00:00:12.780
yeah we could talk about tech news Dell has made some good computers in

00:00:09.780 --> 00:00:15.719
their day ever heard of the Optiplex The

00:00:12.780 --> 00:00:20.039
xbx Notebook Marcus never heard it doesn't know about

00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:25.680
computers well the company's Precision 7 Series Laptops look pretty good as well

00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:28.199
except for one small problem they've got

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:33.180
a proprietary memory connector According to some leaked presentation slides

00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:34.559
courtesy of igpu extremist on Twitter so

00:00:33.180 --> 00:00:39.239
it looks like you will be able to upgrade these laptops ddr5 memory but

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:44.879
only using Dell's probably overpriced compression attached memory modules or

00:00:41.780 --> 00:00:47.160
cams this along with Dell's proprietary

00:00:44.879 --> 00:00:51.180
GPU modules makes the company just a little bit more like apple they're not

00:00:49.140 --> 00:00:56.219
gonna hug you bro it does look like Dell's system could allow scaling laptop

00:00:53.520 --> 00:01:03.260
memory up to 128 gigabytes which is great but if you put scalable in front

00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:03.260
of Cam you get scam

00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:09.659
you don't need that much RAM Elon Musk confirmed on Twitter that Tesla will no

00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:14.460
longer include the mobile connector accessory by default with new vehicle

00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:19.920
purchases because quote usage statistics were super low so seemed wasteful wait

00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.979
sorry it seemed wasteful to include the thing that lets owners of an electric

00:01:21.180 --> 00:01:26.939
vehicle charge it with a regular wall outlet the it just seem like more people

00:01:25.320 --> 00:01:32.280
wanted to spend 500 bucks on a wall connector so you can still buy the mobile

00:01:30.479 --> 00:01:37.320
connector separately musk said they're lowering the price to 200 though it's

00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:41.520
still listed on Tesla's site at 275 and also is out of stock so maybe that

00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:44.640
contributed to this decision I mean the usage statistics showed that people just

00:01:43.380 --> 00:01:51.960
aren't using the mobile connector because we're not making them anymore

00:01:48.119 --> 00:01:53.880
so and smart home company insteon has

00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:58.439
apparently shut down its office and servers without so much as an email to

00:01:56.399 --> 00:02:03.180
its thousands of users removing functionality from their devices and

00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:06.479
apps multiple Executives purged their LinkedIn accounts of any reference to

00:02:04.979 --> 00:02:10.619
the company and some appear to have deleted their accounts entirely

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.660
thankfully the insteon community has figured out some plugins and workarounds

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:19.080
that can keep the lights on but the incident serves as a warning

00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:23.280
against investing in the wrong smart home company thankfully the industry

00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:27.300
seems to be moving more towards open and interoperable standards like matter

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:31.440
instead of the proprietary technology that insteon was known for of course

00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:37.440
there's always the option to just go with a dumb home I mean I I find they

00:02:34.860 --> 00:02:41.400

00:03:18.180 --> 00:03:25.200
we could definitely do some quick bits a report from Insider claims Microsoft may

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:30.959
allow Brands to display ads in free to play Xbox games but they wouldn't take a

00:03:28.440 --> 00:03:34.379
cut of the ad Revenue it seems like the strategy is just to attract more

00:03:32.519 --> 00:03:39.480
free-to-play game developers towards the Xbox platform which is which is great

00:03:36.959 --> 00:03:43.379
more soulless microtransaction infested multiplayer games that's what Xbox needs

00:03:41.819 --> 00:03:48.540
I mean they did just buy a bunch of massive Studios so these ad written

00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:52.799
games will balance out the deeper single player games you don't want too many of

00:03:50.099 --> 00:03:56.879
those this too much quality the hackers that stole more than 600

00:03:55.140 --> 00:04:01.620
million dollars worth of cryptocurrency from the nft game axi Infinity were

00:03:59.459 --> 00:04:05.940
based in North Korea according to the FBI North Korea's Lazarus group has

00:04:04.379 --> 00:04:10.920
reportedly been responsible for stealing over 1 billion dollars in crypto in

00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:14.400
recent years contributing greatly to the country's economy

00:04:12.720 --> 00:04:18.660
and your parents tell you to get a real job some leaks are making it seem like

00:04:16.859 --> 00:04:23.160
Twitter's upcoming edit button could include functionality to display a

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:27.120
tweet's history after it's been edited which could delay some concerns about

00:04:25.020 --> 00:04:31.560
the feature being used to hide bad takes who knows maybe this will normalize the

00:04:29.580 --> 00:04:36.300
idea that it's okay to change your mind about stuff

00:04:33.919 --> 00:04:41.340
I'm already feeling the edit Instinct the heavily anticipated Play date

00:04:38.340 --> 00:04:43.919
handheld gaming toy thing is finally out

00:04:41.340 --> 00:04:49.139
after many delays and the internet is full of tech reviewers singing its

00:04:46.080 --> 00:04:51.780
Praises it's a 180 dollar 2D game boy

00:04:49.139 --> 00:04:56.100
looking thing with 24 simple Games built in and a crank in addition to a d-pad

00:04:54.419 --> 00:05:00.120
and buttons and while you're not going to feel the excitement of taking down

00:04:58.020 --> 00:05:06.419
Kaiju while playing it you might experience some feelings of quaintness

00:05:03.380 --> 00:05:08.400
Whimsy and a recent paper published in

00:05:06.419 --> 00:05:13.080
nature describes how scientists at the Wiese Center in Germany managed to fit a

00:05:10.979 --> 00:05:17.699
brain computer interface onto a man with complete locked in syndrome meaning he

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:21.660
was entirely paralyzed which allowed him to learn to compose simple messages

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:26.220
using only his thoughts he was able to communicate with his son and even asked

00:05:23.699 --> 00:05:30.600
for specific Foods now some of you are hearing this and thinking whoa a way to

00:05:28.440 --> 00:05:34.440
never leave my chair again no that's the that's not the right

00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:38.400
takeaway now I have to take myself away so come

00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:41.759
