1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,560
i'm not the tech news anchor that you deserve but i'm the one you're gonna get

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:06,560
anyway

3
00:00:07,279 --> 00:00:13,599
yay batman wouldn't take his glasses off

4
00:00:10,639 --> 00:00:17,760
Windows 10 has had a bad month microsoft released the october update only to have

5
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:22,640
it delete users files and they're still trying to fix it in order to re-release

6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:27,039
it but then yesterday users with activated copies of Windows 10 pro

7
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:32,160
received messages saying that their os was not in fact activated and that they

8
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:37,760
had to either install Windows 10 home or purchase a genuine copy of Windows when

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:41,440
some affected users contacted microsoft support they were told they would need

10
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:45,840
to buy proper licenses to fix the problem and apparently some people

11
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:49,600
actually did this microsoft has started rolling out a see

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,879
that's why these microsoft tech support scams work all you have to do is be like

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:57,280
hi i'm microsoft you have to buy something and people just do it they

14
00:00:54,879 --> 00:01:01,120
have that kind of power wow billy now microsoft has started rolling out a fix

15
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,960
so if your Windows does suddenly deactivate itself

16
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:08,880
don't panic and just run the activation troubleshooter but all these problems

17
00:01:06,799 --> 00:01:12,880
are just not a good look for microsoft's Windows division they might just drive

18
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:15,920
people to switch back to vista wait who's billy

19
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:21,520
yeah bill gates ea has been being ea about things and

20
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:27,280
complicating the launch of battlefield 5 with a three-tiered rollout

21
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:32,240
strangely if you pre-ordered the game you won't get to play it on launch day

22
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:38,880
which is today that honor belongs to origin access premium subscribers on pc

23
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:42,320
origin access basic and ea access

24
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:46,240
subscribers on the xbox get a 10 hour

25
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:46,240
trial of the game starting today

26
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:52,560
as for those of you who bought the 80 deluxe edition

27
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:56,079
well you get to play on november 15th just like the plebs who bought the oh

28
00:01:54,159 --> 00:02:00,240
wow no they get to wait even longer and the plebs who bought the 60 standard

29
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:06,159
edition they have to wait till november 20th the setup is so convoluted that ea

30
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:10,080
had to make a dedicated graphic just to explain when you'll get to play the game

31
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:14,959
that you bought hopefully they don't follow this model for all their releases but

32
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:19,599
i'm getting a chill in my spine telling me that they

33
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:22,480
might so what day is the release date am i getting the game early or late am i

34

even getting the game at all no i'm just kidding i already have it yeah we have like five keys vine the six

35
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:33,760
second video platform may have been shut down in 2016 but it had a huge impact on

36
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:39,360
the short video format and now its spirit will live on vines creator dom

37
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:43,200
hoffman announced yesterday that his new looping video app bite not to be

38
00:02:41,519 --> 00:02:47,519
confused with vine will launch in spring 2019 but others

39
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:52,800
are also getting on the short video train giphy excuse me jiffy is launching

40
00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:56,879
a 30-second video platform that it's promoting with a short film festival

41
00:02:54,879 --> 00:03:01,920
excuse me so that's a short film festival not a short film festival

42
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:07,200
and facebook has released lasso its competitor to the wildly popular 15

43
00:03:04,239 --> 00:03:11,440
second video lip-syncing act tik-tok finally it has been so hard for me to

44
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:18,680
stand out hopefully there's an audience on lasso for my rendition of papa poker

45
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,680
face poker face

46
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:26,080
it's time for bits and bytes brought to you by the massdrop x sennheiser pc37x

47
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:30,319
gaming headset the x means it's a collab that's right massdrop and sennheiser

48
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:34,239
worked together to make the pc37x oh that's the other x well that x just

49
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,280
means like extreme performance even better it's got angled drivers which are

50
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:42,000
typically seen in more expensive headphones like the hd598 and hd600 with

51
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:46,879
an open back design excellent locational accuracy and a noise canceling

52
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,040
microphone the pc37x will make your mass

53
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:52,879

56
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:06,080
neither tech jesus stephen burke over at gamersnexus got his hands on some rtx

57
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:10,480
2080 ti's that have been experiencing issues and as it turns out the reasons

58
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:14,480
for many cards failing are not so simple issues with the cards were

59
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:18,400
hard to reproduce but were definitely present and it's still unclear how many

60
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:22,400
cards are affected so you can head to their channel to see their findings and

61
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:25,759
to gaze longingly at steve's majestic flow

62
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:29,840
sony's upcoming playstation classic mini console will cost a hundred dollars and

63
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:35,199
the company will probably make a killing on it because the device runs an open

64
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:38,400
source emulator called pcsx rearmed

65
00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:39,680
which anyone can install on a pc and use

66
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,840
for free now to be fair it makes sense for sony

67
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:48,800
to use an existing well-made emulator for the classic it just makes the 100

68
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,479
price tag a little harder to swallow probably because you shouldn't swallow

69
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,479
price tags don't tell them what to do microsoft and amazon have been teasing

70
00:04:54,479 --> 00:05:02,080
alexa and cortana integration for some time but now you can download and

71
00:04:59,199 --> 00:05:05,440
install alexa on Windows 10. as for how that will make cortana feel

72
00:05:03,919 --> 00:05:09,910
when you use alexa for everything instead of her

73
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,440
well pretty sad i would think

74
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:20,880
has reported that the north korea linked hacker group lazarus is behind the theft

75
00:05:17,919 --> 00:05:26,479
of tens of millions of dollars from atms in asia and africa using the fast cash

76
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:31,919
malware lazarus was responsible for the sony hack in 2014 as well as the

77
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:37,520
wannacry ransomware outbreak last year and china's state-run press agency

78
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:42,080
xinhua xinhua has debuted what they're calling ai anchors

79
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:47,520
virtualized avatars that read out the news in a synthesized voice but what's

80
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:53,280
really creepy is that the ai modifies footage of a real anchor so it does look

81
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:58,800
like a real person speaking not a lizard person because who needs real humans to

82
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:03,919
stand in front of a camera and read a teleprompter sounds pretty dumb to me

83
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,520
hey wait a second you know what else sounds dumb the fact that this episode

84
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:11,919
is over stupid but it's okay because we'll be back on

85
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:15,840
monday with more news and lots of it trust me it's going to be the biggest

86
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:19,680
news you've ever seen hey why are you wearing this

87
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,639
because i'm an actor

88
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,479
it's broken detective oh broke it just broke

89
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:33,880
oh it's not a real gun is it

90
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,880
no
