00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:06,359
hi I'm Alex you might recognize me from

2
00:00:03,719 --> 00:00:10,679
Alex week on Flo plane where subscribers get three exclusive Alex themed videos

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:17,359
so subscribe to flow plane or you shall be banished from TechLink forever who

4
00:00:13,799 --> 00:00:19,359
whoa what what no be it'll be fine what

5
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:25,000
I don't know Sammy made the rules Apple has unveiled the iPhone 16e Tim Cook

6
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:29,320
knew you were expecting a new iPhone se but he switched at the last second as a

7
00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:32,920
prank because where the SE models have historically provided an option for

8
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:39,600
iPhone users who wanted something smaller and more affordable the 16e

9
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:42,520
starts at$ 599 USD sporting the same 6.1

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:48,239
in display found in the iPhone 16 the last iphone SE launched up

11
00:00:45,039 --> 00:00:50,440
429 Which is less while the iPhone 16

12
00:00:48,239 --> 00:00:54,199
and 16e share many other features including the same A8 chip with apple

13
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:58,840
intelligence support others will be able to clock you as a poor thanks to the

14
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:02,280
oldfashioned display Notch wow they might also catch on to the the fact that

15
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:06,840
you're not using a magsafe charger because there's no mag safe what the 16e

16
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:10,640
supports wireless charging but your friends will have to watch you sliding

17
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:16,600
your phone around on the charging pad to find the right spot like an idiot

18
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:22,240
luckily the 16e does have a customizable action button and Apple's brand new

19
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,360
in-house C1 sell your modem Apple said

20
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:29,680
goodbye to qualcomm's modem as well as the idea of home buttons and lightning

21
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,640
ports it was time to move on but for 600

22
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:36,680
bucks you might as well look at getting huawei's new trifold phone which is

23
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:40,119
available now outside China for

24
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:42,159
$3,660 the same ballpark yeah sure might

25
00:01:40,119 --> 00:01:48,439
as well I'm I'm sure everyone's Cross Shopping those reviews of NVIDIA's third

26
00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:50,799
RTX 50 Series graphics card the RTX 5070

27
00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:55,079
TI are up and the consensus seems to be that this card which is only coming in

28
00:01:52,880 --> 00:02:00,360
third-party versions that are mostly all listed for well above the $750 MSRP

29
00:01:58,759 --> 00:02:06,079
makes an excellent case for getting a 4080 super instead the LT review found

30
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:12,720
that on average the 5070 TI performs about 10% better than the RTX 470 TI

31
00:02:10,239 --> 00:02:17,480
super while Hardware unboxed cost per frame analysis indicates this card may

32
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:21,760
have been a slightly better deal at a lower price but with the card's actual

33
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:26,680
launch set for tomorrow and stock expect to be as bad as the 590 and 5080 well on

34
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,920
the price front you're probably bud if you like playing slightly older

35
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:36,440
games you might be better off with an older card anyway as NVIDIA has ended

36
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:38,599
support for 32-bit physx on 50 Series

37
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:44,720
cards as confirmed by Invidia support notice and manwel on the forms a reset

38
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,800
Era user named randomly random 67 posted

39
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:51,319
a helpful list of all the games whose particle physics and fluid simulations

40
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:56,200
will be decidedly less fluid on 50 Series cards including Assassin's Creed

41
00:02:53,560 --> 00:03:01,040
4 Black Flag Mirror's Edge and three of the Batman Arkham games but hey chin up

42
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:04,560
when NVIDIA breaks or melt something others might fix it like these accessory

43
00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:09,280
makers who have announced cooling modules for GPU cables I don't think

44
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:15,680
those are going to help with the whole physics 50 amps through one wire thing

45
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:18,200
though you don't know that yeah I

46
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:22,920
do and Microsoft has announced what they think is a massive breakthrough in

47
00:03:19,959 --> 00:03:27,879
Quantum Computing with the Mayana 1 a Quantum chip that will blow your mind

48
00:03:25,239 --> 00:03:31,840
with how fast it can load Outlook okay what they actually said is that this

49
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:36,080
chip can scale to a million cubits which is necessary for Quantum Computing to do

50
00:03:33,959 --> 00:03:40,760
anything useful other than drive hype Cycles Microsoft's claims are huge not

51
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:46,040
only does this chip supposedly detect exotic particles called meuron ferons

52
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:50,120
which researchers have struggled to do for decades but also manipulates them

53
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:54,519
into a new state of matter called a topological State Microsoft claims that

54
00:03:52,519 --> 00:03:58,920
this is the world's first Quantum processor powered by topological cubits

55
00:03:57,159 --> 00:04:02,959
proving it with a paper published in nature which says their measurements do

56
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:07,879
not by themselves determine whether the low energy states detected by

57
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:12,840
interferometry are topological maybe maybe not sure likewise now that all the

58
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:17,639
articles are out and they've read the paper physicists are starting to

59
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:21,759
question Microsoft's claims here but if this is a Quantum breakthrough you'd

60
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:26,600
expect there to be lots of uncertainty bam confirmed I also expect Riley to

61
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:30,400
tell you about our sponsor War Thunder the most comprehensive vehicle combat

62
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:35,240
game ever made and you can play it for free on PC consoles and even your phone

63
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:39,759
I don't know how they fit faithful Recreations of more than 2500 historical

64
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:43,320
in modern tanks planes helicopters and ships from 10 major nations in there but

65
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:47,080
you're not going to be worried about that when you're immersed in combat at

66
00:04:45,479 --> 00:04:51,759
the Helm of the most powerful war machines of our time obviously with

67
00:04:50,039 --> 00:04:55,720
intricate vehicle modeling and a sophisticated damage system there's

68
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:59,960
simply no game better suited for fans of military history so join a worldwide

71
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:16,039
description I may be a king but I'm not above dishing out a quick bit or two as

72
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:18,840
a treat reviews are also up for AMD's

73
00:05:16,039 --> 00:05:24,720
high-powered ryzen AI Max 300 series apus AKA stricks Halo the only device

74
00:05:22,639 --> 00:05:30,880
sporting the new Chips right now is the ASUS Rog flow z13 gaming tablet although

75
00:05:28,479 --> 00:05:34,919
YouTuber the fox helpfully tested multiple variants of the chip at

76
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:38,800
different tdps to see whether they could work in a gaming handheld hopefully we

77
00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:42,520
get to see some beef your laptops or mini PCS with these chips on board

78
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:46,919
because right now most people seem to be questioning why we would need a gaming

79
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:52,039
tablet at all other than to attach and detach the keyboard because that's fun

80
00:05:48,919 --> 00:05:54,319
that's a game in itself yeah thanks ASUS

81
00:05:52,039 --> 00:06:01,039
Humane the makers of the AI pin have been acquired by HP for

82
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:02,880
$116 million6

83
00:06:01,039 --> 00:06:07,440
wouldn't be surprised though close to a year after everyone agreed to pretend

84
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:12,280
for a minute that the $700 shirt dongle with a required subscription was going

85
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:14,400
to do well at all the AI pins themselves

86
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:18,560
will stop working 9 days from now on February 28th which the company

87
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:22,319
explained in a support post quaintly titled important updates for the

88
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:26,840
consumer AI pin customers your thing won't work anymore

89
00:06:25,319 --> 00:06:30,479
not that you were using them anyway Amazon is removing the ability for

90
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:34,960
Kindle users to download copies of their ebooks to a computer on February 26th

91
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:39,800
because some people were out there getting up and thinking that they

92
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:45,360
actually own their purchased books which is silly they're just ones and zeros

93
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:48,759
they're not anything so make sure that you download your Kindle books before

94
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:53,199
then and through the Kindle web interface or you could use a tool like

95
00:06:51,000 --> 00:07:01,120
Amazon Kindle bulk downloader if you're a prous reader big shot over there big

96
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:05,000
reader huh I've read so many books

97
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,919
get King Alex Lenovo has a few wacky

98
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:11,560
concept products is preparing to show at Mobile World Congress in March according

99
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:16,280
to prodigious leaker Evan blast there's a laptop with an extra tall foldable

100
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:21,000
display you can pull out at the cafe to show your dominance there's a yoga power

101
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:25,560
bank that unfolds into a large solar panel for charging this camera or AI

102
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:29,560
robot assistant maybe that attaches to the lid of some of the company's laptops

103
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:35,360
but I'm going to be keeping my IO for something called the AI stick which I

104
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:40,560
fully expect to be a literal inert stick that nevertheless sells you hotcakes

105
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,599
it's got AI though it's an AI stick is

106
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:47,080
it bad that I thought that it might be like a a deal at first Alex it's a

107
00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:52,000
family show and Alf Aeronautics has posted a video of their flying car

108
00:07:49,319 --> 00:07:57,120
driving up behind a Normy vehicle taking off and flying over it to land in front

109
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:02,360
Alf also posted a video of the car driving up on a dirt road to prove that

110
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:07,560
can also drive on land but the bike wheeel looking tires don't exactly

111
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:11,039
Inspire confidence I mean it doesn't seem like they're even able to come up

112
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:15,960
with a name for it their website just has giant text that says pre-order

113
00:08:13,199 --> 00:08:20,759
flying car you have to admit it's a compelling argument makes a point for

114
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:25,360
even more compelling content come right over here on Friday for more Tech news

115
00:08:23,319 --> 00:08:31,400
what will it compel you to do I don't know figure it out just do something do

116
00:08:28,599 --> 00:08:31,400
something
