WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.640
please sir i want some more wait more

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:10.480
in case you're still thinking that the actions being taken by governments and

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:15.599
companies to punish russia for invading ukraine aren't really that big of a deal

00:00:13.440 --> 00:00:19.279
let me tell you we are now dealing with no less than a digital iron curtain

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:23.279
separating russia from the rest of the world in response to basically every

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:28.160
western global corporation halting their russian operations russia has now

00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:32.320
completely blocked facebook they block twitter some major news outlets they

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:37.280
blocked major app stores and demanded that google block ads that misinform the

00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:42.079
russian public about the situation in ukraine in response google just

00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:46.800
suspended all ads in russia yeah they don't need that russia money

00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:50.960
russia also blocked the bbc's website so the network has begun broadcasting using

00:00:48.879 --> 00:00:56.160
that classic wartime technology shortwave radio fm baby it's a brave

00:00:54.239 --> 00:01:00.239
thing to continue broadcasting at all given that putin just signed a law that

00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:03.760
will punish journalists with up to 15 years in prison for publishing what the

00:01:02.239 --> 00:01:08.159
government calls fake news but at least the cyber curtain

00:01:06.320 --> 00:01:13.119
won't extend to the foundations of the internet with icann the association that

00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:17.200
maintains web domain protocols refusing ukraine's request to cut russia off from

00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:20.320
the rest of the internet if that happened

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:23.920
how would putin ever see all the great hitler beams on reddit they're gonna be

00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:27.759
good are those porches the spaces made of dicks i haven't seen those yeah you

00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:32.079
haven't lived pc integrator artesian build suffered

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:37.360
from a scandal of its own making this week when they hosted a free pc giveaway

00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:42.079
for the company's brand ambassadors but then withheld the prize because the

00:01:39.119 --> 00:01:45.600
company's ceo decided live on stream that the ambassador that was chosen

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:54.079
didn't have enough subscribers here is noah belittling her social media

00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:56.399
all followers combined still under 5k

00:01:54.079 --> 00:02:01.200
even across multiple socials i was trying to be generous that's a tough one

00:01:58.320 --> 00:02:04.560
and then here is noah happily re-rolling the giveaway winner and there's the

00:02:03.360 --> 00:02:09.840
rewall this led to severe backlash from the streaming community with some creators

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.800
finding evidence that artesian may be guilty of tax evasion and throttling its

00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:17.280
pcs due to inadequate cooling those are equally

00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:22.239
transgressive transgressions whoopsies you can't just

00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:26.959
change the rules mid-contest artesian tried to do damage control and offered

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:31.200
kia pia a free pc but she declined and jay's two cents

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:35.920
went and built her a pc anyway because he's a gentleman and a scholar

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:39.200
the lesson from all this live streaming can be dangerous

00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:43.680
if you're a butthole speaking of holes of the butt variety it appears nintendo

00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:48.080
is behind a wave of takedowns targeting youtube videos that showcase the steam

00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:52.879
deck's ability to emulate switch and wii games because despite being a video game

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:56.720
company nintendo kind of seems to hate fun you can have fun but only in this

00:02:54.800 --> 00:03:00.720
way only in your childhood it's one thing to crack down on websites

00:02:58.640 --> 00:03:03.760
that host roms those are nintendo's intellectual property and nintendo does

00:03:02.239 --> 00:03:07.840
have a legal right to restrict their distribution but running an emulator

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:11.920
doesn't infringe on nintendo's rights it just makes nintendo look bad because

00:03:09.760 --> 00:03:16.319
emulators are the only accessible way to play many nintendo games when the

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:19.760
company removes them from sale piracy is bad

00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:23.200

unannounced get out of here give us a call samsung was accused earlier this

00:04:11.760 --> 00:04:17.919
week of throttling the performance over 10 000 Android apps including

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:22.000
non-gaming apps using the game optimizing service pre-installed on

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:25.440
their phones benchmarking apps were missing from the list and samsung really

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:29.280
cares about letting you know how fast its phones can go in unrealistic

00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:33.440
situations that you'll never encounter because every other app is throttled

00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:36.720
thanks samson the company has responded saying it will issue a patch allowing

00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:41.440
users to control the performance of games but it didn't address the fact

00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:43.600
that non-game apps are affected too and

00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:46.800
also wait you're just gonna turn the throttling off because you we found out

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:50.800
about it you're just so you got caught you're not sorry system is working

00:04:50.960 --> 00:04:57.759
electric truck maker maker rivien has thrown itself into reverse after a

00:04:55.440 --> 00:05:01.919
massive backlash over its sudden price hike for pre-orders placed before march

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:06.560
1st what new pre-orders will be subject to the

00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:11.919
increased price a change the company said it made in response to inflationary

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:16.080
pressure and higher component costs they got us again to be fair they had no

00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:19.280
way of knowing this was kind of a shady thing to do until after half their

00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:22.960
customers threatened to cancel their orders

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:27.680
they had no idea in other vehicle news sony's vision

00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:32.720
concept vehicles gloves rolling out at ces may actually roll out in the real

00:05:29.919 --> 00:05:37.600
world thanks to tires to thanks to new partnership with honda

00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:42.800
the car maker has made a deal to produce a sony designed electric car by 2025

00:05:40.880 --> 00:05:47.520
under a new company jointly managed by the two companies what's it called sonda

00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:52.800
honey nope uh no um the new company is

00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:56.560
currently called new company so they gotta work on browning a bit but

00:05:54.720 --> 00:06:00.960
but i'm sure the car will be great swappable plates

00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:05.280
after various motherboard manufacturers found a way around Intel's firmware

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:08.960
blocking support for the avx-512 instruction set the company has

00:06:06.880 --> 00:06:14.800
confirmed it will literally destroy a fuse in upcoming alder lake processors

00:06:11.440 --> 00:06:16.639
to prevent avx 512 from ever being used

00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:20.400
it's that dangerous they're protecting you

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:24.479
to be fair Intel does have valid reasons for not supporting the technology

00:06:22.479 --> 00:06:28.880
which is only used in rare instances anyway but intentionally kneecapping

00:06:26.479 --> 00:06:32.400
your own ship is just cruel and that

00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:36.880
is the t and veteran tech journalist dita bonn is

00:06:34.960 --> 00:06:40.960
leaving the verge to work on google's platforms and ecosystems team which

00:06:38.880 --> 00:06:44.560
oversees Android and chrome deters is the latest example of prominent tech

00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:48.000
journalists being hired by tech giants so i guess that's the official food

00:06:46.400 --> 00:06:51.919
chain now it's only a matter of time before it will be bought out by apple

00:06:50.479 --> 00:06:57.680
