00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.919
Tech news can feel kind of serious and dystopian sometimes so let's lighten it

00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:12.120
up by heading to Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and checking out some tech

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:18.080
that's so wild and wacky it makes me slightly uncomfortable Lenovo brought a

00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:20.720
new extra tall boy concept laptop to mwc

00:00:18.080 --> 00:00:24.840
called the thinkbook flip but instead of rolling the display back down to normal

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:30.960
size like the thinkbook plus shown at CES the flips 18-in display folds in

00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:36.000
Half Backwards making this PC the perfect choice for Battleship

00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:41.480
heads there's got to be some Battleship heads out there for multiple monitor

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:45.559
heads there's the lenovo's dual screen concept A system that lets you attach

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:50.039
extra displays to a laptop through lenovo's magic Bay magnetic connector

00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:55.039
Lenovo went kind of wild with the concepts this year they also had a yoga

00:00:52.399 --> 00:01:00.199
concept laptop with a solar panel so it's powered by the sun yeah everything

00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:04.839
is indirectly but this skips the midem man there's also a solar powered battery

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:09.799
bank and after wondering what lenovo's AI stick was when it recently leaked

00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:15.479
today I learned it has an npu inside that can connect to a poor disadvantaged

00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:20.840
regular pc that was born with no AI processors at all here you go go make

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:25.479
some slop with your friends but guys that's just the beginning Chinese

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:30.640
company infinix showed off the zero series mini trifold a concept phone that

00:01:28.600 --> 00:01:35.600
makes way more sense than other multifold designs because it can go from

00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:40.079
normal phone size down to medium phone size and then down again to like a

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:44.799
little GoPro type form factor why is this the first time someone's thought of

00:01:42.520 --> 00:01:49.360
this what are we doing infinix also showed off a solar powered phone and

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:54.079
charging case that Mashable thinks is cool because you can charge it by

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.880
pointing a light at it which would be perfect for when I'm trapped in a cave

00:01:55.640 --> 00:02:02.799
and I don't want to hold both my flashlight and my phone so I can just point the flashlight at the phone and I

00:02:00.880 --> 00:02:07.159
mean problem solved at that point but to offset the usefulness of those Concepts

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:11.200
infinix also had a phone with a back that changes color and makes a little

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:15.920
drawing of a face to mimic the facial expression of a person after their

00:02:13.760 --> 00:02:20.280
pictures taken I don't know when this would ever be useful or wanted but the

00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:25.920
other stuff was cool all right what else the xiaomi 15 and 15 Ultra are phones

00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:30.360
that look and act like fancy cameras and you can even attach modular lenses while

00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:36.680
the xiaomi buds 5 Pro are the first earbuds with qualcomm's S7

00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:40.920
Pro chip and support for xan so they can

00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:43.680
stream audio over Wi-Fi which is not the

00:02:40.920 --> 00:02:50.000
normal way to do that that's weird not as weird though as Samsung's Flex gaming

00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:51.920
concept a handheld that folds in

00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:57.400
half okay that actually makes a lot of sense I want that Samsung's other

00:02:53.640 --> 00:02:58.920
concept the asymmetric flip uh does not

00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:04.239
make any sense because it's literally just a Galaxy Z flip but worse what if

00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:09.239
we what if we added another fold and kind of curled it

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:14.879
why it's Mobile World Congress we're so wacky and different not like those other

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:17.239
Tech conferences we have SUVs from byd

00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:22.280
that can launch drones out of the roof so anyone can feel like the bad guys in

00:03:19.200 --> 00:03:25.200
a chase scene I Won't Let You

00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:30.840
Escape we're going to get them kids yay seems like Google has finally

00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:34.760
blocked you block origin on Chrome for nearly everyone with journalists and

00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:38.720
social media users claiming to have recently encountered this friendly

00:03:36.519 --> 00:03:44.360
little notice blocking Those ads was fun wasn't it well it's time to stop but

00:03:41.920 --> 00:03:49.120
there are some options available to The Blockheads that's I I didn't mean it

00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:52.640
like that there's ublock origin light which was made by the same developer

00:03:50.760 --> 00:03:58.000
Raymond Hill and it's compatible with Google's new manifest V3 extension

00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:02.239
standard but it's had to sacrifice some of its power to do so you could switch

00:04:00.200 --> 00:04:07.599
to Firefox which has promised to continue supporting manifest V2 and V3

00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:11.200
extensions but ooh wait a second didn't Mozilla changed their terms of use to

00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:15.159
say they can do horrible things like abduct my pets and eat them I well it

00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:20.720
certainly seemed that way but the company has now Rewritten the Rewritten

00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:23.440
terms to clarify that nothing was being

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:28.479
changed about how Firefox operates the terms were apparently updated adding

00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:34.440
that scary sale of data language to comply with the broad legal definition

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:38.479
of sale of data as seen in California's consumer Privacy Act where doing pretty

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:42.560
much anything with data is referred to as a sale and I would have loved if

00:04:41.280 --> 00:04:48.759
that's how things worked when I had a commission-based job just made a

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:53.919
sale I'm on fire today why not make yourself a fire website with our sponsor

00:05:37.039 --> 00:05:43.840
it back and enjoy some quick bits they're more

00:05:40.280 --> 00:05:46.560
refined audite good word Qualcomm is

00:05:43.840 --> 00:05:54.280
working on its second gen Snapdragon X Series S so's which may feature up to 18

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:56.720
CPU cores 48 GB of integrated RAM and

00:05:54.280 --> 00:06:01.639
support for discrete graphics cards gaming laptops according to reference

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:06.039
design scene by German Tech site wind future the chips are reportedly not

00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:12.199
expected to launch until next year and one of them may be called the Snapdragon

00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:13.880
X2 Ultra Premium which should solve one

00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:18.599
of the main reasons not many people picked up the first gen not a long

00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:23.960
enough name it's got 33.3 repeating per more name words by now tsmc announced

00:06:22.039 --> 00:06:29.840
this morning it will spend an additional $100 billion dollar to build more chip

00:06:26.880 --> 00:06:34.479
manufacturing facilities in Arizona the move was also announced later in the day

00:06:31.960 --> 00:06:39.840
by US president Donald Trump it's unclear whether tsmc agreed to do this

00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:42.039
to avoid Trump's favorite thing tariffs

00:06:39.840 --> 00:06:46.120
or whether the move was already planned but either way the us is going to get

00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:50.440
more chip manufacturing so they can fulfill some of their military leaders

00:06:47.840 --> 00:06:56.160
dreams of blowing up tsmc if China invades Taiwan they'll be good YouTube

00:06:53.759 --> 00:07:01.160
is planning to lean more into being a platform where you can subscribe to

00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:06.400
other streaming services like Paramount plus and Max according to a report from

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:11.639
the information YouTube's TV app is being redesigned to display this kind of

00:07:09.280 --> 00:07:17.400
content on the homepage similar to how Amazon Prime and Apple tv plus also host

00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:20.199
content from other services so when you scroll through and click on something

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:25.319
that you think you can watch because it's listed on the streaming service that you pay for you actually can't

00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:28.720
watch it you have to subscribe to another streaming service hosted on the

00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:31.639
first streaming service which is just so convenient and would probably be cool to

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:36.520
see how far down the rabbit hole we could take this and Firefly Aerospace

00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:43.159
has become the first private company to successfully land a craft on the moon a

00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:47.560
feed it proved by posting this photo of

00:07:43.159 --> 00:07:50.319
uh I mean uh I guess it's the moon U it

00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:55.440
it must be the Lander craft called Blue Ghost was also able to capture this

00:07:52.960 --> 00:07:59.560
photo of the lunar Sunrise which could easily have been photoshopped or AI

00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:04.479
generated by anyone on their phone look and look this is really cool I just like

00:08:02.080 --> 00:08:07.400
they took that photo um you know but I could make you a photo just like that

00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:13.840
I'm just say I'm just saying you land on the moon big big whoop I'm just saying

00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:16.680
listen hey look eyes on me

00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:21.120
Wednesday more Tech news okay are we cool are we good huh you going to show
