00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:06.960
so you came to get linked up with the tech news

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:11.280
uh-huh makes sense oh yeah microsoft naturally

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:14.639
is always trying to make Windows 10 better and they

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:18.880
sometimes succeed but since they often don't the company

00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:23.199
is reaching out to gamers for feedback on what they want to see in future

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:28.320
Windows builds microsoft's xbox team started a gaming on Windows 10 idea

00:00:26.080 --> 00:00:32.960
drive complete with a website where gamers can suggest improvements this is

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:37.360
gonna be good like disabling background processes while playing a game another

00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:40.879
popular idea was creating a separate version of Windows specifically for

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:45.760
gaming it's a nice thing to see from microsoft especially considering the

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:50.719
massive disaster that was the Windows 10 october update and at least one insider

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:55.120
build of Windows has now separated cortana from the search bar so you won't

00:00:53.199 --> 00:00:59.359
need to feel bad about ignoring her every time you need to find something

00:00:56.879 --> 00:01:03.920
hey you need help with something no god just just go basically every company

00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:07.600
with a web presence including google scrambled to comply with europe's

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:12.640
general data protection regulation or gdpr when it was enacted last year but

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:18.880
despite their efforts google has now been saddled with a fine of 50 million

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:22.320
euros or around 57 million us dollars by

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:24.960
the cnil a french data protection agency

00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:29.360
the fine is related to the setup process for a new Android phone and the alleged

00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:34.079
lack of transparency about what user data is being collected and for how long

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:38.159
users are essentially required to set up a google account to fully make use of

00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:43.759
the device which apparently runs afoul of gdpr google is reportedly studying

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:49.439
the fine and considering its next steps meanwhile a meeting among european

00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:51.439
lawmakers to discuss article 11 and 13

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.320
of the eu corporate directive legislation has been delayed giving the

00:01:54.159 --> 00:02:01.280
eu parliament little time to reach an agreement before elections are held in

00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:06.240
may if you ask me and you shouldn't if google bothers europe so much they

00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:10.560
should just make their own google yeah googly build your own personal data

00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:14.239
hoarding mega corporation leave ours alone

00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:19.840
come on yeah we're not even american and poor poor apple you know they were

00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:25.120
pretty popular for a while there and now it's over now apple's still fine but

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:27.200
they did just put the iphone se back up

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:31.440
for sale in the clearance section of their store over the weekend the popular

00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:34.720
model quickly sold out but it was certainly an unusual move by the company

00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:39.920
to even release it which could have been motivated by low sales of the newer

00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:42.080
iphone 10r or 10s or 10s max for that

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:46.640
matter in fact foxconn the biggest factory that assembles iphones has not

00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:51.440
renewed the contracts of the 50 000 seasonal workers at its plant in

00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:51.440
shenzhou

00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:59.760
while such a thing is not uncommon doing it this early in the season is and

00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:05.360
points to lower demand for apple's devices as a whole well i guess this is

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:10.640
it apple it's been fun press have to pay respects everybody i mean we can say

00:03:07.920 --> 00:03:14.480

all right a patent has surface that allegedly describes motorola's upcoming

00:04:11.040 --> 00:04:19.040
revival of the incredibly popular razer flip phone the first phone i ever wanted

00:04:17.440 --> 00:04:23.520
it looks like it would be the size of a regular smartphone but would then fold

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:27.360
in half to fit more easily in a pocket which my pants have with a small

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:30.800
external display it's a slightly different take than the folding tablet

00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:34.720
designs that we've seen teased from other companies but motorola has always

00:04:32.880 --> 00:04:39.600
been a little different you know that's okay that's fine you know yeah

00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:44.720
facebook is apparently just as concerned as elon musk is about humanity

00:04:41.919 --> 00:04:48.560
inadvertently developing robots that can't think of a reason

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:53.280
not to kill us so together with the technical university of munich facebook

00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:58.560
has begun work on the institute for ethics in artificial intelligence these

00:04:55.440 --> 00:05:00.880
guys ethics the company will provide 7.5

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:05.040
million dollars over five years to get the institute started hopefully someone

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:08.479
else doesn't already build killer robots before those five years are up

00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:14.240
shared bikes and scooters have popped up in cities all over america and have also

00:05:12.479 --> 00:05:18.240
been left all over the place in those cities but now uber is looking to fix

00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:22.800
that by researching autonomous driving tech for the small vehicles which would

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:26.880
allow them to drive themselves back to recharging stations i hope they get this

00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:33.199
working by halloween that'd be a great launch date

00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:35.360
it's already a south park episode

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:39.680
you're so 2000 and late and german developers have managed to mod quake 2

00:05:37.440 --> 00:05:42.880
to include ray tracing support yes is what i've been waiting for as an example

00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:48.240
of the type of quality improvement you can get with the new rendering method

00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:51.039
the project called q2 wikipedia is

00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:55.280
basically the original game but with ray tracing and it looks pretty awesome

00:05:54.320 --> 00:05:59.360
maybe i can't live without ray tracing after

00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:04.240
all no james don't don't go towards the light very

00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:08.800
bird boxy and our last story is just a video of richard browning ceo of gravity

00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:13.440
industries flying a jet suit that he invented around a training course for

00:06:10.960 --> 00:06:17.680
the royal marines browning is himself a former royal marine reservist and you

00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:22.240
can't help but think that this is all just an attempt to impress his sergeant

00:06:20.080 --> 00:06:27.199
never got that approval however it does look again pretty freaking awesome

00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:32.720
