1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,640
ooh I hope you're ready for a spicy new episode I used my secret recipe the

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:12,799
secret is Tech news it's the only ingredient the eu's digital markets act

3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:17,840
has officially come into Force dragging the tech Giants designated as

4
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:22,199
Gatekeepers Apple alphabet Amazon bite dance meta and Microsoft into a world

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:27,800
where they can't just do whatever the hell they want that's for the companies

6
00:00:24,439 --> 00:00:31,640
designated as girl bosses the EU loves

7
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:33,520
them y''s Mrs Queen you Sly we've

8
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:39,079
already talked about Apple and Google's plans for compliance but now meta has

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:44,480
detailed its plans to allow its WhatsApp and messenger apps to be interoperable

10
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:49,039
with third-party chat apps that also use the signal protocol for encryption which

11
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:54,520
includes Google messages when RCS is enabled Skype private conversations and

12
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:58,480
of course signal that was it's not telegram Tik Tok announced it would be

13
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:02,960
giving its users more control over their data but also complained about being

14
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,360
designated as a gatekeeper because they're so young and it'll make it

15
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:11,960
harder for them to compete with the Boomer Tech Giants and it's super lame

16
00:01:09,799 --> 00:01:17,200
but the most anticipated changes are still Apple's new rules allowing

17
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:20,000
third-party app marketplaces on iOS and

18
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:25,479
the first one has apparently launched the miv vention app Marketplace which is

19
00:01:23,479 --> 00:01:32,200
apparently designed to let Enterprises use it to distribute internal company

20
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:34,960
apps but there will come cooler iOS app

21
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:40,119
stores like the one Epic Games planned to release until Apple terminated their

22
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:45,880
developer account again citing both epic's blatant breaking of Apple's rules

23
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:50,960
and CEO Tim Sweeney's very public criticism of the company epic complained

24
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:56,600
prompting EU Regulators to investigate whether Apple had really just punished a

25
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:59,960
company for Mean Tweets and the next day

26
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,719
Apple reinstated epic's account Sweeney

27
00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:07,920
credited the European commission for taking Swift action but Apple told Apple

28
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:13,040
Insider they changed their mind because epic committed to follow the rules

29
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:16,920
something Sweeney had already promised to do in an email to Phil Schiller

30
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:21,239
before their account ban but I mean look at how short that email is there's

31
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:27,400
there's an unacceptable lack of apologetic graveling make me believe it

32
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:29,400
Nikon has acquired Red digital cinema

33
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:34,480
maker of high-end cameras used by Hollywood producers and YouTubers using

34
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:39,560
hash browns as a mouse pad that's lonus we're professionals the amount that

35
00:02:36,239 --> 00:02:41,159
Nikon paid to purchase red is a mystery

36
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:46,840
one that gets even deeper when you remember that red famously sued Nikon

37
00:02:44,159 --> 00:02:51,720
for infringing on seven of its patents related to raw video compression Nikon

38
00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:55,519
responded to the lawsuit by challenging whether red should have even been

39
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:59,440
granted those patents in the first place now it's unclear what exactly transpired

40
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:06,319
between the two companies after that but in April 2023 a year after Red's lawsuit

41
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,959
was filed both red and Nikon agreed to

42
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:13,480
dismiss the case and now all of a sudden Nikon shows up and announces they're

43
00:03:10,799 --> 00:03:17,720
absorbing their former enemy but as fstoppers points out the merger actually

44
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:22,720
makes a ton of sense as a way to combine Red's Cinema reputation with Nikon's

45
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:27,239
excellence in still camera photography and lenses it could be that Nikon and

46
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:31,400
Red's leadership both realized they'd be better friends than enemies I believe

47
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:36,239
Tim Sweeney and Tim Cook will have that same realization someday they will they

48
00:03:33,799 --> 00:03:43,920
will merge there will be one Tim and now we are one guys upon us and

49
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:47,000
despair and a US Tik Tock ban is back on

50
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,799
the menu boys after the bipartisan house

51
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:53,920
Energy and Commerce Committee unanimously voted 50 to zero to advance

52
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:59,840
a bill that would give Chinese parent company bite Dance 6 months to sell the

53
00:03:56,599 --> 00:04:02,360
app to Elon Musk I made that last last

54
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:07,280
part up as soon as Tik Tok got wind of the bill it sent push notifications to

55
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:13,480
its users urging them to call their local representatives to stop Congress

56
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:15,640
placing a total ban on Tik Tok and call

57
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:19,440
they did Congressional staff reported getting bombarded with calls from

58
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:23,320
depressed purple teenagers and the Millennials who complain about them

59
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:27,840
pleading with the government to please let them keep their favorite app saying

60
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:33,800
POV you're disappointing me now at the heart of this issue is the

61
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:39,479
certainty among members of Congress that Tik Tok represents a foreign adversary

62
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:45,360
controlled application despite heavy insistence by bite Dan and their army of

63
00:04:42,039 --> 00:04:48,039
eth thoughts that the CCP has no control

64
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:53,240
over Tik Tok and I make jokes but if passed this bill could have real impact

65
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:57,840
there are a ton of small business owners that depend on Tik Tok for marketing and

66
00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:03,400
questionable psychology takes I think I have ADHD I do or do I I don't know now

77
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:55,440
a well maybe a few more Roku maker of

78
00:05:52,880 --> 00:06:00,880
the smart TV you settled for has figured out a way to make forced arbitration

79
00:05:58,199 --> 00:06:05,120
worse this week Roku customers found they couldn't use their TVs at all until

80
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:10,919
they agreed to the company's updated dispute resolution terms two weeks after

81
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:15,800
the terms apparently came into effect in addition to the forced arbitration Roku

82
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:21,560
already had in place the smart TV bronze medalists added an informal dispute

83
00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:26,639
resolution process where users are required to call roku's lawyers with any

84
00:06:24,599 --> 00:06:30,599
concerns they may have before taking further legal action and before you Su

85
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:34,479
us you have to ask ask Dave everything's going through Dave now I mean I don't

86
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:37,960
know who's worse off roku's customers or the lawyers they've basically turned

87
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:43,560
into unwilling customer support Specialists I don't know how to turn off

88
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:50,360
motion smoothing I'm a lawyer NVIDIA has announced GeForce now day passes at $4

89
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:54,599
for a priority day gaming at up to 1080P

90
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:58,120
and 60 FPS or $8 for an ultimate day

91
00:06:54,599 --> 00:07:00,720
gaming at up to 4K and 120 FPS that day

92
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:05,280
better be pretty good to be called that Gamers would have to be pretty starved

93
00:07:02,919 --> 00:07:10,319
for some playtime to pay those prices when a month of priority membership is

94
00:07:07,759 --> 00:07:16,400
only $6 more but on the other hand GeForce now is harder to resist now that

95
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:20,599
it's added support for NVIDIA reflex and g-sync although support for variable

96
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:26,759
refresh rates is currently limited to the Windows app on a PC with a

97
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:30,199
relatively recent NVIDIA GPU or the Mac

98
00:07:26,759 --> 00:07:33,319
OS app on a number of Apple silicon and

99
00:07:30,199 --> 00:07:35,759
Intel powered Max but not on a PC with

100
00:07:33,319 --> 00:07:40,800
Intel or AMD gpus NVIDIA isn't sure whether those can put out frames at all

101
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,240
can I run it on this GPU on a what's

102
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:48,400
that sorry what language is that in other GeForce news NVIDIA is reportedly

103
00:07:44,919 --> 00:07:50,560
retiring the GTX brand according to

104
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:55,520
multiple sources NVIDIA is no longer Distributing GTX 16 cards to Partners

105
00:07:53,919 --> 00:08:02,159
once all remaining stock of the series is sold that's it I mean game over perhaps

106
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:08,440
in a strange twist the GTX brand will be outlived by the GT name as some GT 1030

107
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:12,720
cards are still up for sale it's unclear if those cards will reach end of life

108
00:08:10,199 --> 00:08:17,400
alongside the gtx1 16 series it's like when a normal healthy adult dog is

109
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:22,080
outlived by an old shriveled tiny ugly dog named something like Mr Poopsy

110
00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:26,720
that's missing two legs and is blind in both eyes it's sad and it feels weird

111
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:31,319
why must Mr Poopsy suffer he was a genetic

112
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,320
mistake rivan had a major launch this

113
00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:40,800
week where it announced a midsize electric SUV called the R2 as well as a

114
00:08:36,560 --> 00:08:45,399
compact SUV sadly not called the

115
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:48,800
D2 R2D2 Riley oh you're the Star Wars

116
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:51,760
guy well the the compact R3 SUV also

117
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:57,399
comes in a more rugged r3x variation with more power higher clearance and a

118
00:08:53,880 --> 00:09:00,040
wider stance you know it's just a little

119
00:08:57,399 --> 00:09:04,399
butch but there's no shame in that what am I

120
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:06,480
reading the R2 boasts a 300 mile range

121
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:10,440
with the larger of its two battery pack options and its single motor

122
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:15,800
configuration and it starts at $45,000 meaning it's significantly

123
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:18,360
cheaper than the larger r1s placing it

124
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:24,519
competitively among batterypowered mom mobiles whoa I want this thing R you are

125
00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:29,279
a mom it's cuz I'm a mom and a former Google engineer has been charged and

126
00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:34,079
arrested for allegedly stealing AI Trad secrets on behalf of a Chinese AI

127
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:38,920
startup Google apparently determined that the employee in question had stolen

128
00:09:35,959 --> 00:09:43,240
a large Trove of documents by uploading hundreds of files onto his personal

129
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:47,880
Google Cloud account making this possibly the lamest Heist of all time

130
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:52,800
according to prosecutors the suspect was offered a CTO position at the Chinese

131
00:09:50,279 --> 00:09:58,519
firm shortly thereafter with a monthly salary worth around

132
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,920
$14,800 a month plus bonus and stock he

133
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:05,600
also alleged traveled to China to raise money for the company and had another

134
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:09,680
employee scan his access badge back in the US to give the impression he was

135
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:14,640
still at work I'm going to try that Strat next time I want to attend a 300

136

00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:32,000
thousand pieces and that just takes forever to clean up I'm I'll be here
