WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.040
you consume tech news every day but do you really know what it's doing to your

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:10.719
mind oh because we don't we need some more studies

00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:14.960
to never publish the internet already called out best buy when they locked the

00:00:12.559 --> 00:00:18.080
ability to purchase a ps5 or xbox series x behind a paywall but apparently best

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:23.439
buy just don't care and they've added gpus

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:27.039
to the list of in-demand items which is to be fair and accurate

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:30.720
representation gamers are absolutely starving for

00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:35.920
friends out there you see they recently restocked various GeForce rtx 30 series

00:00:33.120 --> 00:00:41.440
graphics cards but to actually buy one you had to have paid 200 for a total

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:45.680
tech membership which has perks like two-day shipping extended product

00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:48.559
protection oh right and the right to actually buy anything at best buy

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:52.239
apparently now that's all fine for existing members

00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:56.640
who managed to buy up all of the available inventory but it's less fine

00:00:54.320 --> 00:01:00.640
for people who signed up only to miss the drop as they waited for best buy to

00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:04.720
confirm their shiny new expensive membership they've already been a member

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:09.119
i mean the way i see it sure they don't have a graphics card but they're part of

00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:13.520
something bigger now and that is truly priceless

00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:18.720
valve steam deck is proving to be quite popular among pc gamers who have pined

00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:20.400
for a switch of their own and gpd maker

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:24.000
of Windows gaming handhelds would like everyone to take a step back for a

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:27.840
second alright in a post on chinese social media

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:32.640
recently translated by users on the steam deck subreddit the company points

00:01:29.759 --> 00:01:38.079
out that actually the steam dex hardware contains nothing outstanding and that

00:01:35.119 --> 00:01:43.200
its overall performance is actually not as good as gpd's win 3

00:01:40.479 --> 00:01:46.880
and win max 2021 to be fair there aren't many benchmarks

00:01:44.880 --> 00:01:52.640
directly comparing those just yet so that's just like their opinion man

00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:55.439
but it's probably wrong gpd goes on to say that if you're hoping to install

00:01:54.000 --> 00:02:00.399
Windows on a steam deck to get around the limitations of steam os well

00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:04.079
you are just naive and do not understand the logic of capitalists

00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:09.119
do you see they're trying to make money while gpd is making a handheld steam

00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:12.800
game console for the people they're gonna break it up and everyone

00:02:10.959 --> 00:02:16.959
will get a piece i call it d-pad it's our console

00:02:14.720 --> 00:02:21.520
and gamer's next has posted an update to the new egg being a scam lord saga which

00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:24.720
despite newegg's attempts at damage control actually makes the whole

00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:27.840
situation look even worse

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:32.400
turned out that newegg received a damaged motherboard from a customer and

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:38.560
asked Gigabyte to fix it Gigabyte said the fix would cost 100

00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:40.959
dollars which newegg declined to proceed

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:44.080
with and instead sold the board to gamers nexus who ended up not actually

00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:48.400
needing it so they've returned it unopened at which point knew it was like

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:54.239
yo this board is broken way to go idiot newegg has now refunded

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:58.640
gamers nexus the 500 and sent them the board after being added on twitter by an

00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:03.599
influential account so i guess the system is working exactly nothing to fix

00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:07.599
here definitely watch steve unbox that board and maybe watch paul's hardware

00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:12.239
talk about his experience working as an rma tech at new egg when times were

00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:15.680
simpler back then back then

00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.680
back then

00:03:16.959 --> 00:03:23.920
it's riley time now it's time for quick bids brought to you by the robo rock s7

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:29.200
plus the cleaning robot equipped with sonic mopping technology i didn't think

00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:33.920
we'd see it in our lifetimes the s7 plus scrubs floors up to 3 000 times per

00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:37.360
minute to eliminate dried on dirt that other robots may leave behind because no

00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:42.720
one wants to say it but they're just lazy it also uses ultrasonic technology

00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:47.440
to detect carpet and then lifts the mop up that's right get you a vacuum that

00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:50.879
can do both it even comes with a dock that automatically empties your robot

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:55.200
for eight weeks without needing to be emptied itself i mean come on what is it

00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:58.640

below don't ever let me catch you talking about the bit quicks that way i'm sorry

00:04:02.640 --> 00:04:07.439
they're sensitive there was a nintendo direct on wednesday

00:04:05.920 --> 00:04:11.200
right as we were posting tech links which is pretty rude i think but there

00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:14.879
were some interesting developments if you guys were willing to wait two days because who would actually watch the

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:18.639
nintendo direct event you get all your tech news here right right exactly

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:24.479
instead of mario kart 9 gamers are getting 48 new tracks for mario kart 8

00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:27.680
which are all actually remastered tracks from older games which is pretty much

00:04:26.400 --> 00:04:33.199
what a new mario kart would have been anyway there's now an actual wii sports sequel

00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:37.199
called switch sports a new mario strikers is on the way and fire emblem

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:42.240
is getting the superhero on the battlefield warriors treatment

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:46.240
plus portal and no man's sky are coming to switch but most importantly

00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:52.639
kirby car nintendo aligato gozaimasu

00:04:50.479 --> 00:04:56.800
watch out for spiking SSD prices by the way in the days to come thanks to a

00:04:54.560 --> 00:05:01.120
containment issue at western digital's nand production facilities that's right

00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:06.240
the alien embryos they were storing there broke free of the

00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:10.320
capsules and they i hate face hugs no what actually happened was that at their

00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:15.039
nan production facility they lost somewhere in the neighborhood of six and

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:18.639
a half exabytes of flash

00:05:15.039 --> 00:05:20.320
that is 6.5 billion gigabytes do these

00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:24.800
companies know what's going on down here on the ground there's no gpus

00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:28.160
i've resorted to copying files back and forth between my drives for

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:32.400
entertainment i feel it man i can't do that anymore either i'm right there with

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:36.000
you spacex was already having a bad week thanks to the loss of 40 starling

00:05:34.080 --> 00:05:40.960
satellites that it had just freaking launched due to a geomagnetic storm

00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:45.520
caused by a solar flare and now it's even worse nasa has said they are

00:05:43.280 --> 00:05:49.120
re-evaluating whether launching tens of thousands of satellites into already

00:05:47.440 --> 00:05:53.440
crowded orbital spaces such a good idea after all elon musk

00:05:51.919 --> 00:05:57.199
also said the company is having some difficulty executing on its starship

00:05:55.360 --> 00:06:01.280
plans but revealed a really cool animation of what starship would look

00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:06.280
like once it actually launched so it's basically star citizen now

00:06:03.919 --> 00:06:10.560
and twitch is continuing its attempts at detoxifying its site with new

00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:14.880
restrictions on what usernames can look like account names that reference sexual

00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:20.000
content or hard drugs what about hard content or sexual drugs

00:06:17.840 --> 00:06:23.360
those are fine those are fine okay are going to have to change to something

00:06:21.520 --> 00:06:29.759
else going forward meaning that everyone from 369 to

00:06:26.880 --> 00:06:33.520
gamer and even lover 420 is gonna have to get creative about a new name that's

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:37.440
really a shame because those names really roll off the tongue

00:06:35.440 --> 00:06:41.600
especially ball's face you know just rolls stop it stop it and a russian 16

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:46.720
year old has been sentenced to five years in a penal colony on charges of

00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:51.360
training for terrorist activities the kids crime messaging with his friends

00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:56.960
about blowing up a virtual representation of the fsb the modern

00:06:54.400 --> 00:07:01.599
incarnation of the kgb that the teens had built in minecraft

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:05.840
um to be fair this might be an example of really bleak russian humor not

00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:11.120
everything translates well but if it's not russia um

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:13.919
what child i don't think i can take any more tech news today so you're gonna

00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:17.440
have to come back on friday for more until then it's probably smart to take a

00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:24.440
break we still really aren't sure about the long-term effects

00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:24.440
i had a tech news overdose
