WEBVTT 00:00:00.020 --> 00:00:06.120 hey what up it's your boy LM Jesus I put 00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:12.900 on one of my finest colored shirts to bring you the tech news be grateful 00:00:09.540 --> 00:00:15.480 Linus Windows 11 decided to break your 00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:20.400 ssds again after the most recent moment to update we're having a bit of a moment 00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:22.320 a little bit two multiple users took to 00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:27.300 the Windows 11 subreddit to complain that the read and write speeds of their 00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:31.260 NVMe ssds were vastly diminished after updating and the speeds were restored 00:00:29.220 --> 00:00:36.540 after rolling back the update Reddit user and person whose birth year we may 00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:40.320 never know Mr big dog99 was one of those who shared their experience in the 00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:45.059 comments of the update post but they also came with receipts as Mr Big dog99 00:00:43.020 --> 00:00:50.000 included screenshots from Crystal disc info that purportedly show massive write 00:00:47.940 --> 00:00:55.320 speed drops after installing the update that's fine T what if it's like a nice 00:00:52.379 --> 00:00:58.500 oolong not on the receipts man of all the problems Windows 11 has had over its 00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:02.879 short lifetime this is certainly one of them I mean 00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:07.140 it's not even a unique problem Windows 11 users were reporting drastically 00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:11.159 lower write speeds on their mvme ssds two months after the OS launched there 00:01:09.659 --> 00:01:14.700 are very few moments in the last few years that I want to re-experience so I 00:01:13.260 --> 00:01:19.560 don't need Microsoft trying to forcefully unrepress the end of 2021 by 00:01:17.580 --> 00:01:24.600 repeating the same bug Microsoft photos has a memory for you and it's sadness a 00:01:22.500 --> 00:01:30.060 vulnerability in the Google pixel markup tool allows for some screenshots to be 00:01:26.939 --> 00:01:31.860 uncropped and unredacted the issue is 00:01:30.060 --> 00:01:35.759 due to how the edited photo is saved while it is saved in the same file 00:01:33.659 --> 00:01:39.600 location as the original photo the original isn't erased beforehand this 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:44.460 means that if the new file is smaller like if I don't know it was a crop of 00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:49.140 the original a conceivably large portion of the original's data still exists 00:01:46.619 --> 00:01:54.000 Simon Ahrens was the first to identify and report this vulnerability which he 00:01:50.820 --> 00:01:55.799 dubbed Acropolis I approve and using a 00:01:54.000 --> 00:02:00.119 proof of concept by David Buchanan showed how someone could conceivably 00:01:57.899 --> 00:02:04.020 uncover sensitive data from one of these cropped images the good news is that 00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:08.039 this issue has already been patched on many pixels in the March security update 00:02:05.880 --> 00:02:12.720 the bad news is that pixel 6 series phones have yet to receive that update 00:02:10.380 --> 00:02:16.739 LOL upgrade dude what you have last generation's phone just throw in the 00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:20.700 garbage you're basic but there's still some hope of the Acropolis might be more 00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:24.120 like a regular old natural disaster like a landslide or something since I'm 00:02:22.739 --> 00:02:28.680 assuming they're large Fleetwood Mac fans because everyone is since many 00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:33.200 social platforms like Twitter reprocess uploaded images that renders the old 00:02:31.260 --> 00:02:37.379 data on recoverable unfortunately Discord only started doing this in 00:02:35.580 --> 00:02:42.060 mid-January of this year so anything posted to Discord before then is 00:02:39.480 --> 00:02:46.680 vulnerable good thing no one spent six years posting cropped pixel photos to 00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:52.440 Discord right I'm in the fifth crop pixel photos Discord server right 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:57.120 and a YouTuber spent over twenty two thousand dollars buying every game on 00:02:54.480 --> 00:03:01.680 the Wii U and 3DS eshops before Nintendo shuts them down next week Gerard Khalil 00:02:59.220 --> 00:03:04.739 aka the completionist is appropriately known for completing all the 00:03:03.180 --> 00:03:09.360 achievements and trophies NVIDIA games he faced his strongest challenge yet by 00:03:07.260 --> 00:03:16.920 100 percenting an achievement he said himself buying 866 Wii U games and 1 357 00:03:14.220 --> 00:03:22.019 3DS games requiring close to a terabyte and a half of storage 00:03:19.459 --> 00:03:25.980 how is it going to complete them he already did by buying them and it wasn't 00:03:23.640 --> 00:03:29.700 easy the eshops aren't like steam where you can put piles of shovelware and a 00:03:28.140 --> 00:03:34.860 cart and bankrupt yourself in one convenient purchase each game had to be 00:03:31.980 --> 00:03:38.819 bought individually and after 328 days Gerard and the completionist team 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:42.360 accomplished their goal and plan to donate these games to the video game 00:03:40.379 --> 00:03:47.220 history Foundation a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the 00:03:44.700 --> 00:03:52.500 history of video games mom comments and all your mom loved this game 00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:54.480 a 100 of that game I 100 of your mom and 00:03:52.500 --> 00:03:58.500 this is significant since the 3DS and Wii U are the last Nintendo platforms to 00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:02.519 support the Virtual Console service which means come the 27th of March 00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:07.980 Nintendo will only provide retro games through the switch online expansion pack 00:04:04.500 --> 00:04:09.599 which costs 50 a year and I'm sure did 00:04:07.980 --> 00:04:13.560 not influence the decision to shut down the 3DS and Wii U eshops at all and you 00:04:11.819 --> 00:04:17.400 can't even plug it into an N64 controller all the expansion package 00:04:15.239 --> 00:04:20.160 wait the expansion pack goes in the n64. Riley you're mistaken if I've learned 00:04:18.900 --> 00:04:23.460 anything from the internet the expansion pack goes in your model now it's time 00:04:21.900 --> 00:04:27.660 for quick bits brought

00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:29.580 out days after mat leave approval and at least one woman was holding her 00:05:27.300 --> 00:05:34.440 literally newly born newborn when she was sacked even worse since Google had 00:05:32.460 --> 00:05:38.340 on-site medical facilities and laid off employees can't access Google property 00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:41.400 some people have lost access to their primary care doctor but why would they 00:05:39.960 --> 00:05:44.759 need jobs or doctors when they have babies that's what the babies are for 00:05:43.020 --> 00:05:49.919 they make you feel good in other news

Runway has announced their Gen 2 00:05:56.280 --> 00:06:02.100 text-to-video generator will be available to users within weeks after 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:05.940 previously helping develop text to image generator stable diffusion Runway put 00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:10.680 out their gen 1 model that could take existing footage and modify the visuals 00:06:07.919 --> 00:06:15.300 Gen 2 appears to create videos entirely from text but all they've released are 00:06:12.840 --> 00:06:19.919 short demo Clips if the portfolio I put together from my experience applying for 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:23.520 this job is any indication I'm sure that the examples they chose were not 00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:27.000 cherry-picked at all and they saved their best work for later because 00:06:25.380 --> 00:06:31.199 they're very humble and not because it doesn't exist and they deserve the 00:06:29.400 --> 00:06:36.419 praise they're getting a fake Samsung 980 Pro SST has been spotted by a user 00:06:34.139 --> 00:06:40.919 on a Chinese Forum with packaging labels and even firmware all suggesting that 00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:44.720 the drive is legit but unfortunately it was proven false when it worked 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:49.680 correctly and to be fair to the drive it is indeed 00:06:47.400 --> 00:06:55.080 a two terabyte SSD but after buying it for a big discount over MSRP on taobao 00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:59.340 the user found out it performed just over half the read speed of an actual 00:06:56.940 --> 00:07:05.280 980 Pro and opened it up to find different components than the real thing 00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:11.220 macaroni hamburgers what's going on fake hard drives micro SD cards and now ssds 00:07:08.520 --> 00:07:15.600 have become more common so be careful or you might find yourself opening what 00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:22.740 looks like an SSD box to find oh my God it's a boa constrictor 00:07:19.460 --> 00:07:25.020 how do they even fit it in there oh no 00:07:22.740 --> 00:07:28.919 the internet archives open library was a New York federal court today to defend 00:07:26.940 --> 00:07:33.840 itself against a lawsuit from three of the big five print Publishers at issue 00:07:31.860 --> 00:07:38.220 is the open library's heinous act of letting users check out digital scans of 00:07:35.940 --> 00:07:41.759 physical books more specifically the Publishers really don't like controlled 00:07:39.840 --> 00:07:45.060 digital lending the system that allows the library to lend out as many digital 00:07:43.380 --> 00:07:48.720 copies of the book as it has physical copies in storage it doesn't make any 00:07:46.919 --> 00:07:52.380 sense but math doesn't work out you got three books so you lend out three books 00:07:50.220 --> 00:07:56.400 but the Publishers were spurred to sue over the internet archives National 00:07:53.940 --> 00:08:00.720 Emergency Library which let unlimited users check out ebooks for two weeks the 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:04.620 internet archive faces massive fines and CDL being potentially ruled illegal if 00:08:02.699 --> 00:08:09.660 they lose and for what trying to help people read and learn and not go stir 00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:12.960 crazy inside their homes locked away from everyone they love during a 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:16.800 pandemic that was unprecedented but predictable 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:20.699 I hope it was worth it and computer maker Acer has decided to make an e-bike 00:08:18.900 --> 00:08:26.940 the Acer Abby Evie 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:30.960 will feature onboard AI for predictive transmission control and collision 00:08:28.620 --> 00:08:35.159 detection and because why not the Abby's removable battery can be used to charge 00:08:32.820 --> 00:08:39.240 your phone or laptop so what I'm hearing is Acer configure out how to increase 00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:42.719 their laptop's battery life so they over engineered the world's most portable 00:08:40.500 --> 00:08:46.140 charger good job Acer and I can't figure out why you wouldn't want to come back 00:08:43.800 --> 00:08:51.360 on Wednesday for more Tech news it'll be fun you'll make friends in the comments 00:08:48.300 --> 00:08:54.560 don't go in the comments actually don't 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:58.040 do that unless you want to maybe like me 00:08:54.560 --> 00:08:58.040 Darby trolls
