1
00:00:00,599 --> 00:00:07,279
first things happen in the world that have to do with tech and gaming and all

2
00:00:04,319 --> 00:00:10,800
that and then second we tell you about them I thought we went over this one

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:14,799
more time Google has been playing games with the internet's Hearts concerning

4
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:19,279
Android 11 last week a beta site for the developer preview of the OS went live

5
00:00:17,039 --> 00:00:23,880
but was quickly taken down causing many to think that the site's launch was a

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:28,679
mistake but today Google just went ahead and launched the preview for Android 11

7
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:34,840
about a month earlier than expected and yes it's Android 11 not R since Google

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:37,800
gave up the whole naming OS versions after desserts thing cuz I guess they

9
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:43,840
ran out of desserts so even though it was so cute and Android rocky road is

10
00:00:40,879 --> 00:00:47,800
the OS we all wanted Android 11's changes are mostly under the hood right

11
00:00:45,719 --> 00:00:51,719
now with updates to networking support privacy and platform compatibility

12
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:57,680
hopefully though you'll be able to turn all those up to 11 compatibility is

13
00:00:54,920 --> 00:01:00,760
through the roof oh wow I hope this is the last time we have to talk about

14
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:05,239
foldable phones and how much they suck more than we expected but yeah they do

15
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:09,560
turns out the Galaxy Z flips fancy fibers inside the hinge don't actually

16
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:13,880
keep dust out that well at all as shown by if fixes tear down and some Motorola

17
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:20,119
Razor users are finding their displays are becoming deformed with weird bumps

18
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,920
and that phone's not even 45 yet but if

19
00:01:20,119 --> 00:01:27,240
you want to feel hopeful Again The Verge has a great article about how the Galaxy

20
00:01:24,119 --> 00:01:28,680
Z Flip's display is actually glass

21
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:34,560
despite the questions that have been brought up by Jerry everything's scratch

22
00:01:31,079 --> 00:01:37,439
test apparently Pure Glass can Flex if

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:43,759
you just make it super duper thin like we're talking 30 microns which is how

24
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:45,560
thin the zaps zlap zps glass is that's

25
00:01:43,759 --> 00:01:50,280
thinner than an average human hair and it's even thinner than my thinner than

26
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:55,280
average chicken hair so Samsung's claim of ultra thin glass is true even though

27
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:59,920
on zlip it's covered with a layer of plastic to protect the glass that sucks

28
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,520
butd and Samsung thinks it's good enough to sell to other companies so all we can

29
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,240
do right now is wait for foldables to get better or just buy these ones if

30
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:11,039
you're bored and can't figure out what else to do with your riches that you

31
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:15,480
apparently have you Scrooge McDuck you go to space you could have go to space

32
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,280
and it was already impressive when saber interactive managed to Port the

33
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:24,000
graphically demanding The Witcher 3 to Nintendo switch but this week they

34
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:27,680
outdid themselves all over again the game's Graphics have been tweaked even

35
00:02:25,519 --> 00:02:32,560
more with new abilities like adjusting blur and anti-aliasing and a new

36
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:36,640
sharpening filter just turn it off but more importantly cross safe has been

37
00:02:34,239 --> 00:02:40,360
added for Steam and good old games so you can make progress on the PC version

38
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:45,040
then pick up right where you left off on the switch wow The Witcher 3 is

39
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:49,920
appropriately the third switch game to support the feature after Divinity

40
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:52,080
original sin 2 and civilization 6 and

41
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:58,840
frankly it should be the norm and now I'm just upset that it's not already and

42
00:02:55,239 --> 00:03:00,239
now the quick bits call my name stadia

43
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:05,159
has added support from more more than just pixel phones with the Razer phones

44
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:10,680
1 and two ASUS Rog phones 1 and two and every Samsung Galaxy phone since the S8

45
00:03:07,799 --> 00:03:14,959
getting official support so I guess some people now have one less obstacle when

46
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:20,920
stadia actually gives them a reason to want it oh rude Zing a leaked cinebench

47
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:27,480
result shows Intel's upcoming 10th Generation core i7 10700 F matching the

48
00:03:24,599 --> 00:03:32,799
performance of AMD's ryzen 7 3700 X which would be exciting if the ryzen

49
00:03:29,799 --> 00:03:34,599
ship didn't launch last year and we we

50
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:37,879
didn't know that by the time Intel actually launches 10th gen rizen would

51
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:42,920
probably have something even better coming out so don't give up yet they

52
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:47,360
could still make it cheap and what is a bit of a modern tech Horror Story a

53
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:52,640
reporter for the guardian was stranded on a remote dirt road after the Prius

54
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:57,200
she rented from car sharing startup gig lost its Cellular Connection and shut

55
00:03:54,760 --> 00:04:02,400
down not scared yet how about this story where researchers tricked a Tesla into

56
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:04,319
going 8 5 mph by putting tape on a speed

57
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:09,680
limit sign that red 35 sure Tesla's working on a fix but

58
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:15,640
it's already incredibly spooky oh my I'm scared Staples is trying to head

59
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:20,759
off the retail Apocalypse in its own way by adding podcasting Studios to six of

60
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:22,840
its Boston stores okay the studios will

61
00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:27,560
be equipped with Pro equipment space for four people and a price T of $60 for a

62
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:31,520
60-minute session on the one hand this is actually a cool way to reuse retail

63
00:04:29,479 --> 00:04:36,479
space for something useful but on the other hand as if we need more podcasts

64
00:04:34,199 --> 00:04:39,800
right there's there's literally millions but carpool critics is one of the good

65
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:45,680
ones so check us out anywhere you get your podcast broadcasting live from

66
00:04:43,039 --> 00:04:50,280
Staples and the Jetman team have reached another milestone in Dubai with pilot

67
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:55,560
Vince refit taking off from the ground hovering in place and then shooting off

68
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:57,400
to reach a new alltime high altitude

69
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:02,520
using the company's jet powered wing suit what is this no words know when the

70
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:07,840
suit will be used to fight crime or M more realistically when Dubai's police

71
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:10,759
will order about 50 of these things just

72
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:15,720
go f they like to go fast all the sand in your face BYO goggles and it's time

73
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:20,039
for me to Jet man away because this episode is over folks come back on

74

phones fingers folded
