00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:05.759
the tech news comes for us all

00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:10.320
in the end without much fanfare two new ipads

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:14.799
appeared on the online apple store today one model is a new ipad air featuring a

00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:19.600
bigger 10 and a half inch screen and apple's new a12 bionic soc which is

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:23.840
supposed to be up to 70 faster than the previous generation the other is a new

00:00:21.279 --> 00:00:28.560
ipad mini a device that's been very overdue for a refresh it comes with the

00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:34.079
same a12 chip as the ipad air but with a 7.9 inch display in case the full fat

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:38.800
version is a little too unwieldy for you the devices start at 399 for the mini

00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:43.040
and 4.99 for the air but no matter which one you pick you'll get support for the

00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:48.399
apple pencil and smart keyboard folio covers just like the ipod pro the ipad

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:53.680
so you'll be able to get all your work done on these no problem why don't you

00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:56.879
just get a computer though what's your computer

00:00:55.360 --> 00:01:00.480
although malware protection is a mainstay on computers it's not as common

00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:04.720
for people to have it installed on their phones and to make matters worse it

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:10.159
turns out that lots of antivirus apps for Android might be completely useless

00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:15.040
a recent test from av comparatives found that less than one third of 250

00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:19.439
antivirus apps had a catch rate of over 30 still not even that high while also

00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:24.000
not flagging any false positives it turns out that part of the issue is that

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:27.600
many apps weren't using actual malware detection algorithms and we're instead

00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:32.079
just checking your phone's app against a blacklist of known malware

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:36.000
weak the report indicated that your best bet is to just use an app from one of

00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:40.320
the big well-known brands and of course stay away from shady links and pop-ups

00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:44.159
telling that you've won a hot date or something it's not worth it guys trust

00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:48.799
me no dating not until you're 16. facebook has taken

00:01:46.479 --> 00:01:52.960
one black eye after another over its methods of delivering news to its users

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:57.840
and a report published today by facebook itself puts the spotlight on another

00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:02.159
glaring problem where the heck is all the news specifically local news which

00:02:00.479 --> 00:02:07.280
is supposed to be the focal point of the platform's today in feature seems to be

00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:10.959
dying in many places around the us although the decline of the newspaper

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:15.360
industry has been widely covered already the fact that advertisers have shifted

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:19.599
dollars from newspapers to online media such as facebook appears to have

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:23.760
directly contributed to facebook's news gathering struggles to be fair facebook

00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:27.280
has tried to pump quite a bit of this revenue back into local journalism but

00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:32.480
personally i wouldn't mind getting my news from a town crier standing on a

00:02:29.440 --> 00:02:34.480
soapbox again with a big bell you know

00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:38.390

quickbooks i really hope you weren't using myspace as your primary method of

00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:15.920
cloud storage for some reason as due to our recent server migration project all

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:21.760
music photos and videos uploaded between 2003 and 2015 are gone they're just

00:03:19.760 --> 00:03:25.680
they're gone although most of us probably don't care

00:03:23.519 --> 00:03:29.120
about them anymore myspace isn't the only storage provider this could happen

00:03:27.440 --> 00:03:35.040
to so remember there's nothing wrong with keeping offline backups there is

00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:37.840
something wrong with still using myspace yeah they used to be four percent of all

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:42.000
internet traffic wow fun fact i read an xbox magazine

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.480
back in 2005. wow it wasn't too long ago that tesla

00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:50.560
announced an electric suv that would cost under 40 grand but maybe a bit of

00:03:48.799 --> 00:03:54.319
competition will drive prices down even more fisker has thrown its hat into the

00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:58.720
ring with the news that it will be launching its own electric suburban

00:03:56.239 --> 00:04:03.840
child mover at a similar price point with an even longer range of 300 miles

00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:07.840
or 483 kilometers you'll probably have to wait until

00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:11.200
2021 to see it but that's okay you might start getting better matches in the near

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:15.200
future if you're a frequent swiper on tinder the company has moved away from a

00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:19.359
ranking system that's based on how many desirable users you match with and

00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:22.960
toward one that primarily depends on how much you use the app

00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:26.639
so keep on swiping you might meet the partner of your dreams or at least get a

00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:30.880
cheap fleeting ego boost i don't understand this i swipe i get hotter

00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:35.680
yes they get hotter and hotter the more you swipe that's a dark incentive yeah

00:04:33.280 --> 00:04:40.240
lyft is set to go public ahead of rival uber as the ride sharing company just

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:45.199
announced it's raised over 2 billion for its initial public offering or ipo which

00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:49.600
may take place next week okay a share will run you 62 to 68 if

00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:54.960
you're interested investing with the company hoping to raise its value by

over 5 billion with this ipo hopefully

00:04:54.960 --> 00:05:01.199
the expected uptick in value will help lyft provide cheaper rides in more

00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:05.680
places as i'm kind of tired of paying steak dinner prices for the taxi ride

00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:09.039
equivalent of street meat street meat can be really good sometimes not in this

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:12.880
country and in the wake of google's announcement that it'll be shutting down

00:05:10.880 --> 00:05:16.720
its unpopular social media service google plus the internet archive is

00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:21.199
scrambling to preserve public google plus pages for posterity instead of

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:25.680
dying a proper death it's embarrassing carcass will be preserved and displayed

00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:29.600
for all to see man i hate the internet archive it's dirty and it gets

00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:33.120
everywhere oh and that reminds me i gotta go take care of something send
