00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:05,839
some days you read the tech news

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:11,040
other days the tech news

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:15,120
it reads you samsung galaxy fold devices weren't in

4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:18,560
reviewers hands for long before they started breaking partly due to user

5
00:00:17,119 --> 00:00:24,240
error but also partly due to the device's design ifixit published one of

6
00:00:21,359 --> 00:00:27,439
their extensive teardowns of the fold as they usually do for new tech

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:31,760
highlighting the fragility of the OLED display the gaps in the hinge where

8
00:00:29,599 --> 00:00:37,040
particles of gunk can get in and the apparent lack of proper fold testing

9
00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:43,120
well samsung understandably doesn't want all that bad press out there in the wild

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:46,000
so they asked ifixit to tear down the

11
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:48,719
down ifixit doesn't technically have to comply with samsung's request but they

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:54,079
did allegedly out of respect so i guess that

13
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,280
worked out okay for samsung except now in addition to talking about how the

14
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:01,920
fold was messed up we're talking about how samsung took down an article about

15
00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:05,840
the fold being messed up and that's messed up it's called the streisand

16
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:09,119
effect oh why because it makes

17
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:13,360
it makes you into a successful singer and actress very

18
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:17,119
adored beloved love barb when the epic game store

19
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:23,280
launched back in december it was initially praised for only taking a 12

20
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:25,759
cut of game sales leaving a fat 88 for

21
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:30,080
developers steam by contrast gives developers around 70 to 80

22
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:34,720
uh depending on how many titles they've sold but many pc gamers opinions of the

23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:40,000
epic game store soured when they started announcing a huge number of exclusive

24
00:01:37,119 --> 00:01:43,920
games which would not release on steam at all well now epic game ceo tim

25
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,640
sweeney says there'll be a simple solution for that he tweeted that if

26
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:52,640
steem committed to a permanent 88 revenue share for developers epic would

27
00:01:50,479 --> 00:01:57,840
not only stop the exclusives but also consider putting their own games like

28
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:00,320
fortnite onto steam yeah i see

29
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:03,840
wow i guess uh tim sweeney really is a sweet boy just trying to make pc gaming

30
00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:08,160
better and i'm not the head of a corporation who's trying to gain market

31
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:11,680
share it's so clear to me now i thanks for the tweet tim

32
00:02:09,599 --> 00:02:15,599
tim sweetie they should call him and some corners of the internet are talking

33
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:20,800
about a seemingly net neutrality breaking service from cox

34
00:02:18,319 --> 00:02:27,360
cox internet cox internet called cox elite gamer the service promises pc

35
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:30,400
gamers 34 less lag 55 fewer ping spikes

36
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,480
and 45 percent less jitter by routing

37
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:37,519
game activity through a dedicated gaming network to reduce latency hey that

38
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:41,519
sounds like a fast lane well actually the service doesn't increase or decrease

39
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:45,160
speed it's only available on Windows computers and in reality it's just a

40
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:50,879
rebranded version of wtfast a service that has been available

41
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:55,200
since at least 2017 and furthermore it only really reduces your ping in certain

42
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:59,440
scenarios so so i don't think we need to call our representatives about this one

43
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:03,120
