00:00:00.599 --> 00:00:07.279
first things happen in the world that have to do with tech and gaming and all

00:00:04.319 --> 00:00:10.800
that and then second we tell you about them I thought we went over this one

00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:14.799
more time Google has been playing games with the internet's Hearts concerning

00:00:12.280 --> 00:00:19.279
Android 11 last week a beta site for the developer preview of the OS went live

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:23.880
but was quickly taken down causing many to think that the site's launch was a

00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:28.679
mistake but today Google just went ahead and launched the preview for Android 11

00:00:26.240 --> 00:00:34.840
about a month earlier than expected and yes it's Android 11 not R since Google

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:37.800
gave up the whole naming OS versions after desserts thing cuz I guess they

00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:43.840
ran out of desserts so even though it was so cute and Android rocky road is

00:00:40.879 --> 00:00:47.800
the OS we all wanted Android 11's changes are mostly under the hood right

00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:51.719
now with updates to networking support privacy and platform compatibility

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:57.680
hopefully though you'll be able to turn all those up to 11 compatibility is

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

00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:05.239
foldable phones and how much they suck more than we expected but yeah they do

00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:09.560
turns out the Galaxy Z flips fancy fibers inside the hinge don't actually

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

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:20.119
Razor users are finding their displays are becoming deformed with weird bumps

00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:21.920
and that phone's not even 45 yet but if

00:01:20.119 --> 00:01:27.240
you want to feel hopeful Again The Verge has a great article about how the Galaxy

00:01:24.119 --> 00:01:28.680
Z Flip's display is actually glass

00:01:27.240 --> 00:01:34.560
despite the questions that have been brought up by Jerry everything's scratch

00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:37.439
test apparently Pure Glass can Flex if

00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:43.759
you just make it super duper thin like we're talking 30 microns which is how

00:01:39.880 --> 00:01:45.560
thin the zaps zlap zps glass is that's

00:01:43.759 --> 00:01:50.280
thinner than an average human hair and it's even thinner than my thinner than

00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:55.280
average chicken hair so Samsung's claim of ultra thin glass is true even though

00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:59.920
on zlip it's covered with a layer of plastic to protect the glass that sucks

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

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:07.240
do right now is wait for foldables to get better or just buy these ones if

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

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:15.480
apparently have you Scrooge McDuck you go to space you could have go to space

00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:19.280
and it was already impressive when saber interactive managed to Port the

00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:24.000
graphically demanding The Witcher 3 to Nintendo switch but this week they

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:27.680
outdid themselves all over again the game's Graphics have been tweaked even

00:02:25.519 --> 00:02:32.560
more with new abilities like adjusting blur and anti-aliasing and a new

00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:36.640
sharpening filter just turn it off but more importantly cross safe has been

00:02:34.239 --> 00:02:40.360
added for Steam and good old games so you can make progress on the PC version

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:45.040
then pick up right where you left off on the switch wow The Witcher 3 is

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:49.920
appropriately the third switch game to support the feature after Divinity

00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:52.080
original sin 2 and civilization 6 and

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

00:02:55.239 --> 00:03:00.239
now the quick bits call my name stadia

00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:05.159
has added support from more more than just pixel phones with the Razer phones

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

00:03:07.799 --> 00:03:14.959
getting official support so I guess some people now have one less obstacle when

00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:20.920
stadia actually gives them a reason to want it oh rude Zing a leaked cinebench

00:03:18.760 --> 00:03:27.480
result shows Intel's upcoming 10th Generation core i7 10700 F matching the

00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:32.799
performance of AMD's ryzen 7 3700 X which would be exciting if the ryzen

00:03:29.799 --> 00:03:34.599
ship didn't launch last year and we we

00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:37.879
didn't know that by the time Intel actually launches 10th gen rizen would

00:03:36.480 --> 00:03:42.920
probably have something even better coming out so don't give up yet they

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

00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:52.640
reporter for the guardian was stranded on a remote dirt road after the Prius

00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:57.200
she rented from car sharing startup gig lost its Cellular Connection and shut

00:03:54.760 --> 00:04:02.400
down not scared yet how about this story where researchers tricked a Tesla into

00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:04.319
going 8 5 mph by putting tape on a speed

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:09.680
limit sign that red 35 sure Tesla's working on a fix but

00:04:07.040 --> 00:04:15.640
it's already incredibly spooky oh my I'm scared Staples is trying to head

00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:20.759
off the retail Apocalypse in its own way by adding podcasting Studios to six of

00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:22.840
its Boston stores okay the studios will

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

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:31.520
60-minute session on the one hand this is actually a cool way to reuse retail

00:04:29.479 --> 00:04:36.479
space for something useful but on the other hand as if we need more podcasts

00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:39.800
right there's there's literally millions but carpool critics is one of the good

00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:45.680
ones so check us out anywhere you get your podcast broadcasting live from

00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:50.280
Staples and the Jetman team have reached another milestone in Dubai with pilot

00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:55.560
Vince refit taking off from the ground hovering in place and then shooting off

00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:57.400
to reach a new alltime high altitude

00:04:55.560 --> 00:05:02.520
using the company's jet powered wing suit what is this no words know when the

00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:07.840
suit will be used to fight crime or M more realistically when Dubai's police

00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:10.759
will order about 50 of these things just

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

00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:20.039
for me to Jet man away because this episode is over folks come back on

00:05:17.919 --> 00:05:25.680
Friday for more Tech news no promises that we won't be talking about folding

00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:25.680
phones fingers folded
