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

00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:12.799
secret is Tech news it's the only ingredient the eu's digital markets act

00:00:10.120 --> 00:00:17.840
has officially come into Force dragging the tech Giants designated as

00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:22.199
Gatekeepers Apple alphabet Amazon bite dance meta and Microsoft into a world

00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:27.800
where they can't just do whatever the hell they want that's for the companies

00:00:24.439 --> 00:00:31.640
designated as girl bosses the EU loves

00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:33.520
them y''s Mrs Queen you Sly we've

00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:39.079
already talked about Apple and Google's plans for compliance but now meta has

00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:44.480
detailed its plans to allow its WhatsApp and messenger apps to be interoperable

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:49.039
with third-party chat apps that also use the signal protocol for encryption which

00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:54.520
includes Google messages when RCS is enabled Skype private conversations and

00:00:51.680 --> 00:00:58.480
of course signal that was it's not telegram Tik Tok announced it would be

00:00:56.440 --> 00:01:02.960
giving its users more control over their data but also complained about being

00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:06.360
designated as a gatekeeper because they're so young and it'll make it

00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:11.960
harder for them to compete with the Boomer Tech Giants and it's super lame

00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:17.200
but the most anticipated changes are still Apple's new rules allowing

00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:20.000
third-party app marketplaces on iOS and

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:25.479
the first one has apparently launched the miv vention app Marketplace which is

00:01:23.479 --> 00:01:32.200
apparently designed to let Enterprises use it to distribute internal company

00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:34.960
apps but there will come cooler iOS app

00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:40.119
stores like the one Epic Games planned to release until Apple terminated their

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:45.880
developer account again citing both epic's blatant breaking of Apple's rules

00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:50.960
and CEO Tim Sweeney's very public criticism of the company epic complained

00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:56.600
prompting EU Regulators to investigate whether Apple had really just punished a

00:01:53.520 --> 00:01:59.960
company for Mean Tweets and the next day

00:01:56.600 --> 00:02:01.719
Apple reinstated epic's account Sweeney

00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:07.920
credited the European commission for taking Swift action but Apple told Apple

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:13.040
Insider they changed their mind because epic committed to follow the rules

00:02:10.640 --> 00:02:16.920
something Sweeney had already promised to do in an email to Phil Schiller

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:21.239
before their account ban but I mean look at how short that email is there's

00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:27.400
there's an unacceptable lack of apologetic graveling make me believe it

00:02:24.200 --> 00:02:29.400
Nikon has acquired Red digital cinema

00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:34.480
maker of high-end cameras used by Hollywood producers and YouTubers using

00:02:31.920 --> 00:02:39.560
hash browns as a mouse pad that's lonus we're professionals the amount that

00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:41.159
Nikon paid to purchase red is a mystery

00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:46.840
one that gets even deeper when you remember that red famously sued Nikon

00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:51.720
for infringing on seven of its patents related to raw video compression Nikon

00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:55.519
responded to the lawsuit by challenging whether red should have even been

00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:59.440
granted those patents in the first place now it's unclear what exactly transpired

00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:06.319
between the two companies after that but in April 2023 a year after Red's lawsuit

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:08.959
was filed both red and Nikon agreed to

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:13.480
dismiss the case and now all of a sudden Nikon shows up and announces they're

00:03:10.799 --> 00:03:17.720
absorbing their former enemy but as fstoppers points out the merger actually

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

00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:27.239
excellence in still camera photography and lenses it could be that Nikon and

00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:31.400
Red's leadership both realized they'd be better friends than enemies I believe

00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:36.239
Tim Sweeney and Tim Cook will have that same realization someday they will they

00:03:33.799 --> 00:03:43.920
will merge there will be one Tim and now we are one guys upon us and

00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:47.000
despair and a US Tik Tock ban is back on

00:03:43.920 --> 00:03:48.799
the menu boys after the bipartisan house

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:53.920
Energy and Commerce Committee unanimously voted 50 to zero to advance

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:59.840
a bill that would give Chinese parent company bite Dance 6 months to sell the

00:03:56.599 --> 00:04:02.360
app to Elon Musk I made that last last

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

00:04:04.760 --> 00:04:13.480
its users urging them to call their local representatives to stop Congress

00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:15.640
placing a total ban on Tik Tok and call

00:04:13.480 --> 00:04:19.440
they did Congressional staff reported getting bombarded with calls from

00:04:17.440 --> 00:04:23.320
depressed purple teenagers and the Millennials who complain about them

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:27.840
pleading with the government to please let them keep their favorite app saying

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:33.800
POV you're disappointing me now at the heart of this issue is the

00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:39.479
certainty among members of Congress that Tik Tok represents a foreign adversary

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:45.360
controlled application despite heavy insistence by bite Dan and their army of

00:04:42.039 --> 00:04:48.039
eth thoughts that the CCP has no control

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:53.240
over Tik Tok and I make jokes but if passed this bill could have real impact

00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:57.840
there are a ton of small business owners that depend on Tik Tok for marketing and

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

00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:08.400

a well maybe a few more Roku maker of

00:05:52.880 --> 00:06:00.880
the smart TV you settled for has figured out a way to make forced arbitration

00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:05.120
worse this week Roku customers found they couldn't use their TVs at all until

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:10.919
they agreed to the company's updated dispute resolution terms two weeks after

00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:15.800
the terms apparently came into effect in addition to the forced arbitration Roku

00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:21.560
already had in place the smart TV bronze medalists added an informal dispute

00:06:18.840 --> 00:06:26.639
resolution process where users are required to call roku's lawyers with any

00:06:24.599 --> 00:06:30.599
concerns they may have before taking further legal action and before you Su

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

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:37.960
know who's worse off roku's customers or the lawyers they've basically turned

00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:43.560
into unwilling customer support Specialists I don't know how to turn off

00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:50.360
motion smoothing I'm a lawyer NVIDIA has announced GeForce now day passes at $4

00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:54.599
for a priority day gaming at up to 1080P

00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:58.120
and 60 FPS or $8 for an ultimate day

00:06:54.599 --> 00:07:00.720
gaming at up to 4K and 120 FPS that day

00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:05.280
better be pretty good to be called that Gamers would have to be pretty starved

00:07:02.919 --> 00:07:10.319
for some playtime to pay those prices when a month of priority membership is

00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:16.400
only $6 more but on the other hand GeForce now is harder to resist now that

00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:20.599
it's added support for NVIDIA reflex and g-sync although support for variable

00:07:18.840 --> 00:07:26.759
refresh rates is currently limited to the Windows app on a PC with a

00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:30.199
relatively recent NVIDIA GPU or the Mac

00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:33.319
OS app on a number of Apple silicon and

00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:35.759
Intel powered Max but not on a PC with

00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:40.800
Intel or AMD gpus NVIDIA isn't sure whether those can put out frames at all

00:07:37.520 --> 00:07:42.240
can I run it on this GPU on a what's

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:48.400
that sorry what language is that in other GeForce news NVIDIA is reportedly

00:07:44.919 --> 00:07:50.560
retiring the GTX brand according to

00:07:48.400 --> 00:07:55.520
multiple sources NVIDIA is no longer Distributing GTX 16 cards to Partners

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

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

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

00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:17.400
alongside the gtx1 16 series it's like when a normal healthy adult dog is

00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:22.080
outlived by an old shriveled tiny ugly dog named something like Mr Poopsy

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

00:08:24.440 --> 00:08:31.319
why must Mr Poopsy suffer he was a genetic

00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:33.320
mistake rivan had a major launch this

00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:40.800
week where it announced a midsize electric SUV called the R2 as well as a

00:08:36.560 --> 00:08:45.399
compact SUV sadly not called the

00:08:40.800 --> 00:08:48.800
D2 R2D2 Riley oh you're the Star Wars

00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:51.760
guy well the the compact R3 SUV also

00:08:48.800 --> 00:08:57.399
comes in a more rugged r3x variation with more power higher clearance and a

00:08:53.880 --> 00:09:00.040
wider stance you know it's just a little

00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:04.399
butch but there's no shame in that what am I

00:09:01.160 --> 00:09:06.480
reading the R2 boasts a 300 mile range

00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:10.440
with the larger of its two battery pack options and its single motor

00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:15.800
configuration and it starts at $45,000 meaning it's significantly

00:09:12.760 --> 00:09:18.360
cheaper than the larger r1s placing it

00:09:15.800 --> 00:09:24.519
competitively among batterypowered mom mobiles whoa I want this thing R you are

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

00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:34.079
arrested for allegedly stealing AI Trad secrets on behalf of a Chinese AI

00:09:32.040 --> 00:09:38.920
startup Google apparently determined that the employee in question had stolen

00:09:35.959 --> 00:09:43.240
a large Trove of documents by uploading hundreds of files onto his personal

00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:47.880
Google Cloud account making this possibly the lamest Heist of all time

00:09:45.839 --> 00:09:52.800
according to prosecutors the suspect was offered a CTO position at the Chinese

00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:58.519
firm shortly thereafter with a monthly salary worth around

00:09:55.000 --> 00:10:00.920
$14,800 a month plus bonus and stock he

00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:05.600
also alleged traveled to China to raise money for the company and had another

00:10:02.880 --> 00:10:09.680
employee scan his access badge back in the US to give the impression he was

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

00:10:11.640 --> 00:10:16.959
p.m. matina sh don't tell lonus and

00:10:14.640 --> 00:10:22.040
we're putting it in the video the um watch these but do please tell me that

00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:26.079
you'll come back on Monday for more Tech news or my heart will break into a

00:10:24.040 --> 00:10:32.000
thousand pieces and that just takes forever to clean up I'm I'll be here

00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:32.000
I'll I'll miss the MAA
