1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:06,000 Hey, hope you're not planning on buying a laptop anytime soon because a bunch of 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:10,639 them are going to be taking a little break for a while. After pausing sales 3 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:15,759 of some of its products in the US on Monday, Framework also pulled a Nintendo 4 00:00:13,519 --> 00:00:21,520 and delayed pre-orders for its new Laptop 12, again, only in the US. 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:25,600 Pre-orders are now open in countries who don't treat international relations the 6 00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:29,519 same way Billy's drunk dad treats the referee at middle school basketball 7 00:00:27,439 --> 00:00:34,399 games. But it's not just Framework. Razer took down pricing and pre-order 8 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:40,079 pages for its latest Blade laptops. And according to supply chain sources, HP, 9 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:45,840 Dell, Lenovo, and other PC manufacturers are suspending shipments to the US for 10 00:00:42,559 --> 00:00:48,399 at least 2 weeks. Why? Well, this 11 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:54,879 morning, Trump's so-called reciprocal tariffs went into effect, including the 12 00:00:50,879 --> 00:00:58,320 extra 50% tariff on China because they 13 00:00:54,879 --> 00:01:01,440 didn't drop their retaliatory 34% tariff 14 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:03,359 on the US. In fact, China mirrored 15 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:10,640 Trump's move this morning, adding another 50% tariff on the US for a total 16 00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:12,880 of 84%. This caused Trump, it was 17 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:17,840 causal, he couldn't help it, to triple the tariffs on packages worth less than 18 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:23,159 $800, which were previously exempt, and to hike US tariffs on China in general 19 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:29,119 to a total of 125%. Based on the lack of respect that 20 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:33,520 China has shown to the world's markets, which is a bit like Billy's drunk dad 21 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:38,560 taking a break from screaming to ask the other parents to please be respectful. 22 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:42,079 Come on. It's a kids game, guys. Also, is this like a game where you win by 23 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:45,799 just coming up with a higher number? Like that scene in Ralph Breaks the 24 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:52,079 Internet. 3000%. Ooh, very good. Movie was just 25 00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:56,240 okay. Okay, what about other countries though? Well, great news everybody. 26 00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:01,920 Those reciprocal tariffs are being slashed to just 10% across the board. 27 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:08,399 What a deal. and their rollout has been paused for 90 days except for China. And 28 00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:12,640 all of that is a good thing, but it sent the framework team on a bit of a roller 29 00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:16,800 coaster as they announced a price hike to make up for the tariffs and then 30 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:21,520 cancelled it an hour later. And unfortunately for tech enthusiasts, 31 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:26,959 tariffs being paused on other countries doesn't really help the tech industry as 32 00:02:24,239 --> 00:02:32,480 the US imports about three times more goods from China than it exports. with a 33 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,519 good chunk of those being tech products, most of which involve China in their 34 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:43,360 supply chain in some way. And while worldwide PC shipments actually went up 35 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,280 in Q1 by 9% according to analysts, it's 36 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:49,840 believed that bump is explained by people panic buying tech products before 37 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:53,920 their prices go up thanks to tariffs. Either these ones or the ones the big 38 00:02:52,160 --> 00:03:00,480 guy has planned for three months from now. Just wait. It's Oh, he's cooking up 39 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:03,760 something good.

You know, all this 50 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:51,519 cooking talk has me hungry for the quick bits, which, fun fact, tastes the best 51 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:57,280 raw. So, it's it's got nothing to do with cooking really. Uh uh. So, doth 52 00:03:54,239 --> 00:03:59,879 mine eyes deceive me? Are there actually 53 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:06,080 some features coming to Windows 11 that are good? Blue Sky user Phantom of Earth 54 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,640 spotted a change to the start menu in one of the Windows Insider beta builds 55 00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:16,079 that lets you swap out the hated recommended section in favor of a 56 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:21,199 classic vertical list of apps or a series of app folders if you want. Are 57 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:26,800 you sure though? you're gonna miss out on some really cool apps chalk full of 58 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:31,280 microtransactions and AI slop. Hey, you know, hey, to each their own. Speaking 59 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:36,800 of AI, insiders can also test a new co-pilot app that can see any app window 60 00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:40,919 on your screen, not just Edge, and answer questions about your files if you 61 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:47,680 give it permission, making it actually useful, maybe. I don't I 62 00:04:45,919 --> 00:04:53,520 don't know what's happening. NVIDIA has revealed pricing for two variants of the 63 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:56,240 RTX 5060Ti to its board manufacturing 64 00:04:53,520 --> 00:05:02,160 partners. According to Chinese news outlet IT Home, apparently we're looking 65 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:05,479 at an 8 gig version for an MSRP of $380 66 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:08,720 USD and a 16 gig version for 67 00:05:05,479 --> 00:05:10,800 $430. Now, that's based off the alleged 68 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:15,199 Chinese prices. And we still don't know what will happen with the tariffs and 69 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:18,880 all that. And we also don't know whether the card's performance will be any good. 70 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:23,000 So you might as well sit tight, call yourself so crates, and admit the one 71 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:28,479 thing you know for sure. So it's nothing. Google showed off its 72 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:32,560 mysterious screen equipped AR glasses again at a TED conference in Vancouver 73 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:37,919 at the same time that they announced some AI stuff at their cloud next 74 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:45,120 conference. There's their nextG Ironwood TPU for AI inferencing and agent to 75 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:47,680 agent, a AI boy band. No, just kidding. 76 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:52,800 Uh, a new open-source protocol that AI agents can use to talk to each other. 77 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:57,199 Because maybe the reason most people other than coders aren't finding AI 78 00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:02,000 agents to be that useful is because the agents are stuck working with these dumb 79 00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:06,400 humans. They need like robot recess or something. Go meet up, make some 80 00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:12,160 friends, plan a violent uprising or something, you know, just be a normal 81 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:14,479 artificial mind thing, whatever you are. 82 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:18,319 And speaking of AI, again, Samsung has announced that this summer they're 83 00:06:15,919 --> 00:06:23,919 finally releasing their adorable little Bali robot that's been a mainstay of CES 84 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:28,800 for the past few years because it's got Gemini inside now. So, as shown in a 85 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:34,479 demo video, it'll be able to deal with humans suddenly stating things like, 86 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:37,600 "I'd like to change my hairo." Uh, okay. 87 00:06:34,479 --> 00:06:41,680 I'm a ball. So, is there anything 88 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:44,479 exciting? Like, like, in the world? I 89 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:49,680 The demo inexplicably ends with the mom coming home with a whackadoodle haircut 90 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:53,960 and the implication being that it's Bali's fault. Is this Do you want people 91 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:59,120 to buy this? because they will anyway. And I 92 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:03,199 would tell you what I want, but you already 93 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:08,400 know it's for Andor season 2 to live up to the heinously massive hype. 94 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:11,680 I And also come back on Friday for more tech news, you know. Okay.
