00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,399
I usually tell you the tech news in English but this video is sponsored by

2
00:00:03,959 --> 00:00:10,320
Babel who are giving our audience 60% off their language learning

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:13,480
subscriptions so I might suddenly lapse into

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:18,080
Mandarin we'll we'll have to see the European commission has officially

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:22,439
charged apple with non-compliance under the digital markets act for preventing

6
00:00:20,359 --> 00:00:26,679
App Store developers from freely steering consumers to Alternative

7
00:00:24,439 --> 00:00:30,480
channels while Apple has recently allowed inapp links to developer

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:35,360
websites where users can buy buy stuff without giving Apple a cut devs still

9
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:40,039
can't provide pricing information in the app leaving it up to users to figure out

10
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:45,360
why that button is there this button goes to our website you've got a website

11
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:48,160
uh great job uh Apple could be find up

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:54,600
to $3 billion dollar for the violation but EU regulation moves real slow so now

13
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:59,399
apple is supposed to examine the commission documents and reply in

14
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:04,439
writing then the EU will make a final ruling by by March 2025 the commission

15
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:08,240
is also just now starting another investigation into whether Apple's

16
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:13,200
policies concerning thirdparty app stores and their ridiculous core

17
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:17,240
technology fee also violates the dma because they they just can't tell yet I

18
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:21,439
just don't it could be fine I I mean Apple's response statement says that

19
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:25,720
they're confident they are in compliance with the dma it's also confusing

20
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:30,880
honestly Apple seems a bit confused as well they just added the ability to

21
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:33,119
format external drives to the iOS 18

22
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:37,680
beta which which is cool but it's not what the EU is asking for Apple do you

23
00:01:35,479 --> 00:01:41,520
do you understand this they're like look you can change your home screen icon

24
00:01:39,439 --> 00:01:46,520
color now is that good what do you want the confusing launch of co-pilot plus

25
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:51,960
Windows PCS with Qualcomm Snapdragon X Series chips continues a lot of coverage

26
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:56,479
really wants to position this as a revolutionary moment for PCs but

27
00:01:54,280 --> 00:02:00,119
performance and battery life tests still make the new laptops feel kind of like

28
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:04,280
you're a kindergarten teacher and kid just handed you the best drawing of a

29
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:08,640
horse in the whole class that still mostly looks like a pile of unpeeled

30
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:12,879
potatoes good job but maybe it's not qualcomm's fault for misleading us a

31
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:17,760
fairly helpful video was posted by YouTuber Alex ziskind on Saturday

32
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:24,160
looking at the Samsung book for Edge with the flagship Snapdragon X Elite x1e

33
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,760
84100 horrible names and two surface

34
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:32,920
laptop sevens with the 8100 and the Snapdragon plus 64100 Zin explains how

35
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:37,560
messed up Windows 11's power settings are after fiddling around and finally

36
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:41,720
enabling the highest possible power profile he witnessed a huge boost in

37
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:46,640
performance compared to using the balanced mode he also noted a very small

38
00:02:44,519 --> 00:02:50,159
difference in performance between the plus and Elite

39
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:57,319
chips while emulation continues to be a sticking point for some reviews continue

40
00:02:55,599 --> 00:03:01,440
to trickle out as people actually get their hands on these machines so

41
00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:04,879
hopefully I'll soon have something to tell my tech illiterate friends and

42
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:10,879
family when they inevitably ask about co-pilot plus PCS other than do not date

43
00:03:08,159 --> 00:03:15,680
co-pilot she will break your heart there is at least one definite win to award

44
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:21,319
Microsoft's newest surface devices though I fix it has given both the

45
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:23,599
surface laptop 7 and Surface Pro 11 an 8

46
00:03:21,319 --> 00:03:28,720
out of 10 for repairability after giving both of their original incarnations a

47
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:32,560
zero and a one respectively just like a binary joke to make there

48
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:36,560
but not right now unlike Samsung which iix it recently broke up with Microsoft

49
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:41,480
seems to have actually taken repairability to Heart adding nice

50
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:45,319
touches like a QR code visible as soon as you remove the bottom plate that

51
00:03:43,239 --> 00:03:48,360
links to Microsoft's service manuals don't give Microsoft too many Kudos

52
00:03:47,159 --> 00:03:53,159
though because if anything their attitude about Windows 11's Enthusiast

53
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:57,760
friendliness seems to be getting worse they just removed instructions for how

54
00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:01,920
to sign into a local account on Windows from a support page while leaving up the

55
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:06,000
instructions for how to convert a local account to a Microsoft account and the

56
00:04:03,959 --> 00:04:10,400
Windows 11 setup process reportedly no longer prompts you with a local account

57
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:14,400
signin option either even if you put in an email address that doesn't exist

58
00:04:12,599 --> 00:04:18,759
thankfully many workarounds still exist for using a local account and Microsoft

59
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:24,720
won't send Killer Robots to your house if you use them yet they're co-pilot

60
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,639
powered she breaks hearts and Bones

61
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:30,320
Babble their app can help you learn a new language whether it's for business

62
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:33,720
or pleasure learning a few key phrases can go a long way to avoid

63
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:37,080
miscommunication for example if you're live in the Vita Loca in Cancun being

64
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:43,400
proficient with can save you a few close calls if

65
00:04:40,039 --> 00:04:43,400
you're in a hurry I recommend

66
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,840
adding with Babel you get access to one of the top language learning apps in the

67
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:54,479
world it features lessons created by over 650 real language experts that will

68

help you learn practical real world conversations at a pace you're

69
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,680
comfortable with Babel's own research suggests that if you use their app to to

70
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:06,360
study a brand new language you can learn the equivalent of a beginner's College

71
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:09,520
semester in an average of just 15 hours but if for some reason you aren't happy

72
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,840
with your results Babel Has a 20-day money back guarantee that summer

73
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:17,320
vacation of yours probably isn't cheap so if you're planning on traveling somewhere your native language isn't

74
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:21,000
native why not save some money on those language lessons get up to 60% off your

75
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:27,039
subscription when you use our Link in the description and you might just be saying gracias to babble for their help

76
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:33,280
quick why are you censoring that quick bits bits this is AMD's highly

77
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:39,240
anticipated strix Point laptop processors may be dwarfed by their big

78
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:41,120
brother lineup of strix Halo apus

79
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:49,120
according to a recently leaked shipping manifest it lists boards with a 120 watt

80
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:51,280
TDP and a 128 GB of RAM which is a bit

81
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:56,319
Overkill but another leak indicates that Intel might be adapting an aerol Lake

82
00:05:53,360 --> 00:06:02,440
desktop processor into a laptop version with 24 threads that's right this Falls

83
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:06,720
hottest laptop trend is overkill three touchpads or I won't buy it reports that

84
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:11,720
apple is currently in Partnership talks with meta are actually old news

85
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:17,319
according to the herald of germed Mark German apparently meta pitched their AI

86
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,800
services to Apple who rejected them can

87
00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:24,319
you blame them I mean meta's llama AI models are kind of Open Source but a lot

88
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:28,800
of Apple's own models are too then there's the fact that Facebook has been

89
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:30,960
tagging real life photos as made with AI

90
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:36,720
it would never work work Apple's kind of the Privacy company and meta is kind of

91
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:41,440
the feed three billion users data into Zuckerberg's gaping ma nom nom nom

92
00:06:39,479 --> 00:06:45,520
company so every time I look out my bedroom window I never see Tim Cook Mark

93
00:06:43,759 --> 00:06:51,039
get out of there I want the other guy a Florida

94
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:56,720
family has filed a formal request that NASA compensate them for $80,000 in

95
00:06:54,280 --> 00:07:02,879
Damages following an incident in March where a 1.6 lb metal part from a battery

96
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:07,840
pallet jettison from the ISS embarrassingly using the canadarm to

97
00:07:05,639 --> 00:07:11,479
robotic ARM we're so sorry failed to burn up in the atmosphere and instead

98
00:07:09,599 --> 00:07:16,800
blew a hole straight through their two-story home had the ISS instead

99
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:20,240
committed an accidental DIY air strike against a home in a different country

100
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:25,520
they would be clearly obligated to provide compensation under the terms of

101
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:28,479
the 1972 space liability convention US

102
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:33,400
law however is less clear the recording industry Association of America has

103
00:07:30,599 --> 00:07:39,440
filed lawsuits against two AI music generators sunno and udio for alleged

104
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:44,280
copyright infringement the Raa claims that sunno and udio have used massive

105
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:48,919
amounts of unlicensed music to train their models and that that is wrong

106
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:53,639
while neither music generator will specify what songs they used some of

107
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:58,720
their outputs seem rather telling including one song from udio that copies

108
00:07:56,479 --> 00:08:03,159
the entire first verse of Green Day's American Idiot followed by a chorus of

109
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:07,720
the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog which is how I wish that song Went

110
00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:14,000
the first time but I mean we fixed it prancing Queen

111
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:16,720
Laura prancing

112
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:22,360
queen and the internet has responded to Luma lab's freeo try Dream Machine video

113
00:08:19,919 --> 00:08:27,840
generator by using it to turn static images into uncanny mem worthy videos as

114
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:34,120
the AI struggles to comprehend the horror that is wide lus and the human

115
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:38,240
skeleton even historical images got this treatment leading to this video of the

116
00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:43,519
head of the Soviet Secret Police running across the water of the vulga canal like

117
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:45,920
a combination of Bugs Bunny and Jesus

118
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:50,240
but at least the AI memes are staying on the internet oh God they AI generated an

119
00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:54,600
actual rocket engine not with a dream machine thing this was a different model

120
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:59,160
but maybe we should try it it could be funny what would be even funnier is if

121
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:03,880
you came back on Wednesday for more Tech news can you imagine oh my God what

122
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:11,920
would your neighbor say Pro probably someone like LOL what a cool

123
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,920
person get away from the Windows mark
