00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:09.040
i can hear what you're thinking great another convenient roundup of recent

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:10.960
tech news just what i needed

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:16.240
epic games has officially gotten some backup in its war against apple 12 other

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:20.800
companies including spotify tile and match group have formed the coalition

00:00:18.400 --> 00:00:25.199
for app fairness which will advocate for freedom of choice and fair competition

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:29.439
across the app ecosystem the group's specific demands mirror the ones made by

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:34.719
epic in its lawsuits calling for apple to end its anti-competitive policies and

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:40.079
lower the default 30 cut of app store revenue which i'm sure apple will do

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:44.320
eventually over their collective dead perfectly maintained california bodies

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:48.320
they're a beautiful company although apple did just make a concession to

00:00:46.160 --> 00:00:52.399
facebook allowing event organizers to skip paying the 30 cut for three months

00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:56.480
giving facebook until the end of the year to implement in-app payments for

00:00:54.399 --> 00:01:00.640
events i don't know maybe tim apple has a heart after all a beautiful

00:00:58.879 --> 00:01:04.640
sandblasted metal one he could afford with the 20 billion dollars he gets from

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:09.680
the app store revenue amazon has unveiled its own cloud gaming

00:01:07.119 --> 00:01:14.400
service called luna complete with a custom controller taking fellow cloud

00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:18.799
storage giants google and microsoft head on when it launches later this year luna

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:23.600
will be composed of gaming channels which you can individually subscribe to

00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:26.640
that sounds like cable i thought we got rid of that

00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:31.439
so far the only channel that's been announced is the basic luna plus for

00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:35.840
5.99 a month but ubisoft's channel is in the works there's other ones coming too

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:40.479
apparently unlike stadia which runs off Linux servers luna will use Windows

00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:44.960
servers with NVIDIA t4 gpus which are basically rtx 2070 supers meaning

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:48.240
developers have to do less work to get their games on the platform but you know

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.360
what's missing vague claims about negative latency that

00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:57.520
would really sell this for me interestingly luna will be playable on

00:01:53.280 --> 00:02:00.000
pc mac fire tv devices and iOS

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:04.880
skirting apple's cloud gaming service restrictions on the app store by

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:09.840
not being on the app store what's going on here luna will be a

00:02:07.119 --> 00:02:13.599
progressive web app on iOS which i guess apple is totally fine with so we might

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:17.840
see google and microsoft follow suit with web apps for stadia and xcloud

00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:21.520
instead of making individual app store apps to stream each title in their

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:25.840
library which is what apple wanted them to do but i'm pretty sure that was just

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:30.800
apple's idea of a hilarious prank NVIDIA launched the rtx 3090 on september 24th

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:34.720
and it went only slightly better than the rtx 3080 launch most likely because

00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:39.599
there were way less people lining up around the digital block to purchase a

00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:44.720
1500 graphics card but NVIDIA still went ahead and pre-apologized to fans you

00:02:42.160 --> 00:02:49.200
pre-order we pre-apologize for having the card in limited supply due to the

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:53.360
constraints of physical reality we're sorry we just haven't figured out that

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:57.680
duplication spell yet reviews of the card are also out showing the 3090

00:02:55.200 --> 00:03:02.400
getting 10 to 15 percent faster gaming performance than the 3080.

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:06.239
yeah uh turns out the 3090 isn't exactly the titan by another name that everyone

00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:10.879
thought it was although it is still a decent card for professional creators

00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:17.760
but will decent be good enough when AMD releases its flagship big navi cards

00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:20.720
codenamed sienna

00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:24.000
cichlid and navy flounder what did i just say were those words

00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:28.640
ah horrible code names some leaks have led

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:34.159
fans to speculate team red's gpus could actually be faster than the rtx 3080 and

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:38.239
that would certainly be nice now it's time for quick bits brought to you by

also alexa devices can now bark like a dog to scare off intruders just a wild

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:39.440
day over at amazon they're having some fun over there microsoft's one terabyte

00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:43.520
storage expansion for the xbox series xns will cost

00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:49.199
dollars now you might remember the series s itself only cost 2.99 which

00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:53.759
means that the series s is basically made up of a one terabyte SSD with

00:04:51.440 --> 00:04:57.280
eighty dollars of electronics slapped on but wait

00:04:54.960 --> 00:05:01.199
the series s only comes with a 512 gig SSD enough for a single call of duty

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:05.280
warzone installation but

00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:08.800
game pass someone on 4chan has leaked the source code of a number of old

00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:13.840
versions of Windows including Windows xp and server 2003 along with a folder full

00:05:11.520 --> 00:05:17.360
of bill gates conspiracy theory videos that's the more interesting one to me

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:21.759
there is some concern the various bits of code that do overlap with Windows 10

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:25.360
could be used for malware or to finally out bill gates as a reptilian why is he

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:30.800
