00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.960
did you know that techlink's tech news is naturally derived from 100 electronic

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.440
text sources that's why it feels so smooth going down

00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:15.759
all the way down after leaks revealed the design and

00:00:13.280 --> 00:00:20.160
price of the lower power xbox series s and the series x microsoft decided to go

00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:23.760
with the flow and make the reveal official phil spencer said

00:00:22.240 --> 00:00:27.840
they're going to tell everybody next week he swears but he's got a kind of

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.000
suspicious face you know and very punchable not sure if we can trust them

00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:35.920
anyways both consoles launch on november 10th with pre-orders opening on

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:41.360
september 22nd just three days before my birthday and xbox series s will cost us

00:00:38.480 --> 00:00:46.000
just 299 dollars and physically it takes up less than half the volume of this

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:49.920
series x which will cost 499 dollars the bets are settled it's over

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:54.000
that's partly because the series s lacks a disk drive but it also has weaker

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:58.399
specs across the board a less powerful GPU a slightly lower clock CPU as well

00:00:56.480 --> 00:01:04.080
as less vram and less storage but microsoft says it will still be capable

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:06.000
of delivering 1440p gameplay at 120 FPS

00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:09.920
for 299. dang

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:14.720
dang but the deal actually just gets better ea's game subscription ea play

00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:19.520
has just been plonked into xbox game pass for free while xbox all access

00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:23.520
basically a hardware payment plan that comes with games pass and xbox live will

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:27.600
now allow users to upgrade to the new consoles

00:01:25.520 --> 00:01:31.360
and as ours technical points out you might even save money going that route

00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:35.840
instead of just buying the console and games passes separately outright really

00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:40.799
the only bad part of today's xbox news is a leak showing a one terabyte

00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:44.320
expansion SSD retailing for 220 dollars i mean

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:48.640
philly we trusted you google has rolled out

00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:53.200
Android 11 to pixel phones i didn't notice what you didn't update

00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:57.200
oh other phones have it too though oneplus xiaomi oppo and realme devices

00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:01.680
can also update to Android 11 if they're paying attention unlike me although it's

00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:05.680
just a stable beta version but that's still

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.759
that's better than just pixels right

00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:11.520
take that apple i don't get it anyways Android 11 brings built-in screen

00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:15.440
recording system level messaging bubbles revamped media controls built into the

00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:20.480
notification shade group notifications and a few other privacy and security

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:24.720
tweaks google has normally revealed a new statue in mountain view for each

00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:28.480
Android release but this time they just made an ar statue that you can see

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:32.160
through your phone you know keep your physical distance from those statues

00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:37.040
it says apple would make a real statue but i don't know their announcement for their

00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:40.640
event was also ai apple would do it i don't think they would something apple

00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:45.360
might do though apparently is remove the ability for users to log into their epic

00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:49.120
games accounts using the sign in with apple method i don't know what apple

00:02:46.959 --> 00:02:54.160
thought this would accomplish like would this be the final straw that makes

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:55.599
epic go oh okay fine lawsuit's off

00:02:54.160 --> 00:02:58.959
oh shoot sign in

00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:01.920
it's the drop that makes the glass run over users shouldn't be affected as long

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:07.440
as they make sure their email and password are up to date so they can sign in the old-fashioned way this latest

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:11.680
petty move in the legal fight between the two companies comes after apple

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:16.080
counter-suit epic for damages suffered from the loss of fortnite revenue with

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:20.000
apple calling epic's actions theft period even if apple is legally correct

00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:24.239
here it feels a bit weird to say that epic stole the money generated from

00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:27.599
their game from apple and isn't this how this all started

00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.480

and a mobile app to take complex concepts and break them up into

00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:48.159
delicious bites james bite size bite-sized james-sized chunks

00:03:46.959 --> 00:03:52.799
we suggest checking out their mathematical fundamentals course which has been redesigned with interactive

00:03:51.200 --> 00:03:57.760
features to help you with the foundational concepts behind algebra

00:03:54.879 --> 00:04:01.360

students the first 200 of those people stem students or not need to head to

00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:09.439

00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:18.320
where are you i don't know western digital apparently has this weird habit

00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:22.639
of doing stupid things because after just getting over that whole shingled

00:04:20.400 --> 00:04:28.720
magnetic recording debacle the company has now started labeling 7200 RPM drives

00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:32.240
as 5400 RPM drives meant for servers and nas systems this means the drives are

00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:38.639
louder hotter and consume more power than owners expect apparently wd are

00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:41.520
calling the drives 5400 RPM class units

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:45.199
cool gonna start saying i'm a seven foot class dude

00:04:43.280 --> 00:04:48.160
you're all so tiny down there ask me how the weather is

00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:52.160
inside sources are claiming that microsoft is readying a new mid-range

00:04:50.479 --> 00:04:56.800
surface device to launch this fall for around 500 us dollars that would be

00:04:54.400 --> 00:05:01.919
pretty amazing if it didn't also have only 64 gigabytes of storage and four

00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:05.840
gigabytes of RAM are you kidding me man it's 20 20 microsoft make a laptop with

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.919
four gigabits of RAM is like making a car that has legs instead of wheels and

00:05:08.080 --> 00:05:14.800
tiny little short ways that aren't even seven foot class oh that's pointless

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:19.919
wait did they just invent the horse more rumors are pointing to an upgraded 4k

00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:24.160
capable nintendo switch launching next year 2021 a bloomberg report covering

00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:28.240
nintendo increasing switch production to meet demand also claims that the company

00:05:26.479 --> 00:05:34.800
has told third party developers to prepare 4k ready versions of their games

00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:37.039

the country along with over 100 other chinese apps including tick tock the

game is actually produced by the south korean pub g corp which will now publish

00:05:53.840 --> 00:05:59.680
the game itself in india instead of tencent uh 10 cents on a place
