WEBVTT

00:00:01.520 --> 00:00:08.800
right side or left side right right okay

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:12.400
oh no no it's good no it's bad

00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:17.039
although the us government is looking to ban tiktok it looks like the popular app

00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:20.960
won't be going quietly into that good night tick tock is now suing the

00:00:19.279 --> 00:00:25.599
government claiming that it was denied due process since the proposed ban is

00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:29.039
the result of an executive order rather than any kind of court proceeding oh and

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:33.200
also that it isn't a threat to national security

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:37.120
anyway pointing out that none of its data or key employees are actually even

00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:40.960
based in china interestingly there's also a report out

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:45.600
of the wall street journal that facebook ceo marcus zuckerberg

00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:50.320
may have privately met with president trump urging him to ban the app which

00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:54.640
has led to speculation that this is at least partially about facebook trying to

00:00:52.719 --> 00:01:00.320
pull the rug out from under a business rival in fact josh hawley a senator from

00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:04.720
missouri has accused facebook of raising concerns about tick tock to protect its

00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:07.760
own market share it'll be interesting to see how this plays out but in the

00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:12.400
meantime it looks like you'll be able to keep tick-tocking for at least a little

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:16.240
longer unless of course you're a broken clock

00:01:14.320 --> 00:01:20.159
or that but this isn't the only high-profile legal fight we're going to

00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:23.439
be telling you about today as microsoft has officially

00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:29.200
joined the fray on epic game side as the latter

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:31.119
continues its court battle against apple

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:35.280
in case you're not familiar apple has banned fortnite from its app store after

00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:41.439
epic tried to use a payment system in the app to avoid having to give apple

00:01:37.520 --> 00:01:43.680
their 30 cut that they are obviously due

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:49.119
but now the controversy has broadened as apple is threatening to end epic's

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:52.000
ability to update the unreal engine

00:01:49.119 --> 00:01:56.719
which is used by many other iOS games including titles not developed or

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:01.280
published by epic now given that microsoft publishes games

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:05.520
based on the unreal engine it's not surprising that they are now trying to

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:10.399
intervene on epic's behalf now apple claims that this whole

00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:12.959
controversy is being caused by epic

00:02:10.399 --> 00:02:17.280
breaching the app store terms including giving apple its cut of in-game revenue

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:21.920
funnily enough though epic and microsoft have actually had their own kerfuffle a

00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:25.520
few years back so i guess now they're buds you know friendship ended with

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.599
apple now microsoft you're my best friend my enemy is my friend that one

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:34.319
now if you're the type of person that loves to invest in tech stocks you might

00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:41.680
be excited to know that Corsair is going public the company's target

00:02:37.519 --> 00:02:43.920
price for the ipo is 100 million dollars

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:47.599
and it will be listed on the nasdaq sometime before the end of this year

00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:52.000
though it's not yet clear how much you'll have to pay for a share Corsair

00:02:49.519 --> 00:02:55.599
obviously has marketed itself quite well over the years they've got partnerships

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:59.519
with major streamers and esports personalities and even some youtubers

00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:03.519
and they're generally regarded as a company that takes care of its customers

00:03:01.519 --> 00:03:07.519
however the company could also be adversely affected by swings in the

00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:12.239
pricing of dram which have been known to happen from time to time and the rise of

00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:16.879
cloud gaming services where consumers might not see as much need for a fancy

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:21.680
pc gear and peripherals although i don't think i could ever get sick of RGB all

00:03:19.200 --> 00:03:25.440
over everything just kidding today's bit quits are brought to you by

00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:29.040

offers interactive explorations and a mobile app to help you master concepts

00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:46.080
in math science and computer science the courses take complex concepts and break

00:03:43.760 --> 00:03:50.159
them down into bite-sized chunks so over time you'll be amazed at what you can

00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:53.680
accomplish we suggest checking out their mathematical fundamentals course which

00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:57.120
has been redesigned with interactive features to help you with the

00:03:55.040 --> 00:04:01.360
foundational concepts behind algebra number theory and logic which make it a

00:04:06.959 --> 00:04:14.159
brilliant.org techlink will get 20 off an annual premium subscription now

00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:18.479
that's a logically good deal on to the bit quits there's a new world record for

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:24.400
internet speed that was just set at university college london

00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:26.639
178 terabits per second which would be

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:32.639
enough to load up all of netflix's content in under one second

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:36.000
yes i can the researchers used a bandwidth much higher than what's

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:40.800
currently available but that isn't to say that we couldn't have speeds like

00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:42.639
this on the back end in the future and

00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:46.080
here i thought my new like fiber optic gigabit connection at home was something

00:04:44.080 --> 00:04:49.120
to get excited about actually i'm still excited about it's pretty great now

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:52.800
there hasn't been much of a push to make air travel significantly faster since

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:57.360
the concord last flew but one company out of

00:04:55.040 --> 00:05:01.840
colorado wants to make supersonic flight a reality again

00:04:58.960 --> 00:05:06.240
boom supersonic great name by the way is going to be unveiling a faster than

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:10.479
sound test plane in early october with test flights happening next year

00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:13.759
yeah ooh actually maybe there's a bad vibe in there as

00:05:12.080 --> 00:05:17.440
well the company plans to build a full-size passenger plane if the test

00:05:15.440 --> 00:05:20.720
goes well which i certainly hope it does because there's nothing worse than being

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:24.800
stuck next to an awkward sweaty seat mate for 14 hours i speak from

00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:29.520
experience people really don't like being stuck next to me for 14 hours and

00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:34.639
apple is reportedly planning on building a floating store yes my friends on water

00:05:33.039 --> 00:05:38.240
in probably the most predictable place in the world for such a thing

00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:43.039
singapore the store is going to be dome shaped because why not and it will

00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:47.280
connect via a pedestrian tunnel to a mall because

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:51.919
singapore no word yet on when it will open but i can't wait to schlep all the

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:56.720
way out there to buy a monitor stand now we've all been waiting a very long time

00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:58.960
for the release of cyberpunk 2077 and

00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:02.319
we're gonna keep waiting but hey at least there's some good news for the

00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:07.680
games fans to be the game is going to be getting multiple free dlc packs after

00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:11.360
launch you will still have to pay for some of the larger expansion packs that

00:06:09.280 --> 00:06:16.400
are planned but this is still a nice little add-on that certain two-letter

00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:19.520
developers might do well to keep in mind

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:21.280
it's free it's free uh no

00:06:19.520 --> 00:06:25.440
and finally if you're a tesla owner who's trying to use unauthorized mods to

00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:29.919
get around software feature locks there's a bit of bad news as a hack from

00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:34.400
engine x that gives the model 3 some extra horsepower that had been locked

00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:39.840
down by tesla has officially been kerbal anode now the group says they will be

00:06:37.039 --> 00:06:44.000
able to thwart this in a week or two but i think that it's pretty clear at

00:06:41.840 --> 00:06:49.199
this point that we're being set up now we're seeing the the groundwork for a

00:06:46.080 --> 00:06:51.599
basically never-ending arms race cat vs

00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:56.000
mouse that is going to see people either paying the full amount to tesla or being

00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:59.360
sort of constantly tinkering with their car to make sure that they're actually

00:06:57.520 --> 00:07:04.639
getting that feature that they didn't pay the full amount for but did end up

00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:06.560
paying these third parties to unlock for

00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:10.960
them so bottom line if you want something that's going to work all the

00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:15.840
time you should probably just pay tesla for it or if you don't like tasless

00:07:13.599 --> 00:07:19.759
practices of charging extra for features that are already built into the cars

00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:23.440
you could just not buy a tesla that's all i'm saying and that's our show so

00:07:21.840 --> 00:07:30.800
come back on wednesday for more tech news and a better analogy about it

00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:30.800
related to donuts what
