00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.799
now i know the tech news can be scary but courage

00:00:03.679 --> 00:00:08.480
is not the absence of fear blah blah

00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:13.360
take my hand and we'll be scared together

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:16.960
microsoft just became a developer of playstation games

00:00:14.719 --> 00:00:22.560
the company is buying zenimax media the parent company of bethesda

00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:26.160
arcane studios and id software for 7.5

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:27.680
billion dollars in cash this means that

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.439
fallout the elder scrolls dishonored quake doom and more

00:00:29.599 --> 00:00:34.800
are all going to become microsoft properties even more interestingly it

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:40.160
means microsoft now owns the developers behind a pair of

00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:45.200
playstation 5 exclusives death loop and ghostwire tokyo

00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:47.840
strangely this isn't even that out of character for microsoft as of late the

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:52.559
company just doesn't seem to give a sh about whether

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:56.239
gamers use their products on xbox or their products somewhere else i just

00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.840
hope there won't be some software lock in skyrim that will

00:00:58.480 --> 00:01:04.159
prevent us from running that wheel of cheese benchmark i don't know

00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:07.200
what that is tick tock and wechat have both gotten

00:01:05.119 --> 00:01:10.960
stays of execution from the us government they were supposed to have

00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:15.840
both been removed from the google play store and apple app store on sunday but at the last

00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:19.439
second walmart of all people entered the deal

00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:24.080
between tick tock and oracle making it by president

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:29.520
trump's decree american enough i guess as for wechat

00:01:27.600 --> 00:01:33.119
they got a ruling from a federal judge in the district of california

00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:37.119
keeping them on life support until at least next sunday

00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:40.159
until they can get this all sorted out you know the weirdest thing about all of

00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:43.680
this is that bike dance is still gonna own what 80 percent of tick tock so like

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:47.360
that's american enough maybe it's just too big

00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:53.759
to fail it's it's all the rage all the kids are yeah you just got to sing you know dude

00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:57.840
it's popular man even though bots were likely at least partially responsible

00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:01.040
for the playstation 5 pre-order fiasco sony has actually come out with a mia

00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:07.200
culpa noting that the whole thing could have been a lot smoother

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:10.160
that's putting it mildly similarly to NVIDIA and their short supply of rtx

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:13.520
3080s sony is promising that more consoles

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:17.520
will be available very soon if only we had an exact date

00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:21.120
to specify for you we don't the company also promised that

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:24.239
more would be available through the end of the year so if you

00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:31.360
were hoping to have one under your christmas tree don't give up or maybe give up

00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:34.879
because amazon has already told folks who have pre-ordered

00:02:32.640 --> 00:02:37.680
that they may not get their console on release day which is scheduled for

00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:41.840
november the 12th i mean i suppose you could always go

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:45.200
fight for one in person on black friday but given how high demand is you might

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.280

00:03:29.440 --> 00:03:36.159
between epic games and apple rages on as epic is none too happy about apple claiming that

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.879
the lawsuit was just a tactic to get people more interested in fortnite

00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:42.879
on iOS and apple claims that people just well they ain't that into fortnite

00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:46.959
anymore so epic has countered by saying that the

00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:50.239
number of fortnite players has actually gone up by nearly 40 percent between

00:03:49.040 --> 00:03:53.519
october and july so somebody isn't telling the truth in

00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:59.599
court you know i've never seen that before in the bible here's some good news if

00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:03.519
you're looking forward to cyberpunk 2077 but also missed out on the rtx 3080. it

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:07.360
turns out the minimum and recommended system requirements have

00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:10.879
just dropped and they dropped before they even

00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:16.799
dropped they're they're not super demanding

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:20.560
all they're asking for is an AMD fx 8310

00:04:16.799 --> 00:04:20.880
and a gtx 780 while recommending a ryzen

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:26.639
3 3200 and a gtx 1060. so you won't need a

00:04:24.320 --> 00:04:30.800
computer with the power of the matrix for a virtual dose of keanu isn't that

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:34.320
wonderful sad news out of germany as it appears

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:38.400
that a patient at dusseldorf um actually it's dusseldorf university

00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:41.680
hospital has died as a result of a ransomware attack

00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:46.560
wow really earlier this month network problems caused by the attack forced workers to

00:04:45.520 --> 00:04:50.320
transfer the patient to a more distant hospital although the

00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:53.600
hackers apparently did not mean to target the hospital and reportedly

00:04:52.080 --> 00:04:58.320
provided the key for free after they realized what happened they could still be hit with negligent

00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:02.240
homicide charges yeah for real that's great there's also

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:04.720
speculation that this is the first time that ransomware has directly caused a

00:05:04.080 --> 00:05:08.840
death wow yeah so there you there you go hackers

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:13.919
you know the real world has real consequences another Windows 10 update is on the

00:05:12.080 --> 00:05:19.199
horizon as next month we should be getting the 20 h2 update the most visible change

00:05:17.520 --> 00:05:23.840
will probably be the new start menu which should look a little less busy and the new

00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:27.759
chromium-based version of the edge browser is going to be pre-installed

00:05:26.080 --> 00:05:30.479
you'll also see more options in the settings app as microsoft continues to

00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:36.400
phase out the infinitely superior control panel which has been around since Windows 1.0

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:40.800
i personally will be very sad to see it ride off into the sunset

00:05:38.479 --> 00:05:44.479
and finally another electronics mainstay is being put out to pasture

00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:49.360
as nintendo has announced it is no longer manufacturing the 3ds

00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:52.000
no it's obviously taken a backseat to the switch but the 3ds was a very

00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:55.759
successful console in its own right selling over 75

00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:59.840
million units over 9 years however the good news is

00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:06.960
that you'll still be able to buy 3ds games through the eshop and play online for a long time to come

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:11.199
we hope so don't sweat too much if you don't feel like paying a

00:06:08.479 --> 00:06:13.919
supply shortage premium for the nintendo switch

00:06:11.919 --> 00:06:18.400
and that's our show come back on wednesday for more tech news

00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:21.759
that we would never price gouge you for because it's free unless you pay for

00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:27.919
youtube premium or you buy shirts on lttstore.com

00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:32.080
it's not really free is it the joy is free

00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:32.080
nope
