00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:06,920
Prime day is over so put down your credit cards and listen up it's time for

2
00:00:04,380 --> 00:00:06,920
Tech news

3
00:00:08,179 --> 00:00:14,219
remember how Microsoft said Windows 10 was going to be the last version of

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,940
Windows so that's obviously gone out the window no pun intended with the release

5
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:21,960
of Windows 11 and now it looks like Microsoft is trained even further away

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:25,859
from that Vision as a report indicates that they're going to be having a major

7
00:00:23,340 --> 00:00:30,539
release every three years meaning it's expected that we'll be seeing Windows 12

8
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:33,059
in 2024 but on the plus side Redmond is also planning to push out feature

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,000
updates for the existing version of Windows much more frequently which

10
00:00:34,860 --> 00:00:39,540
hopefully means you won't have to deal with buggy or poorly designed features

11
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,260
for as long although nothing regarding Windows 12 has been confirmed yet

12
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:47,040
Microsoft does apparently have plans to bring it to life in line with the new

13
00:00:45,059 --> 00:00:52,620
release timetable which is great because I love just having to get used to a new

14
00:00:49,020 --> 00:00:55,620
interface over and over and over and

15
00:00:52,620 --> 00:00:57,000
over again in better news GPU prices are

16
00:00:55,620 --> 00:01:03,300
still falling and although initial reports that NVIDIA would be dropping the msrps of its current RTX 3000 lineup

17
00:01:00,899 --> 00:01:07,080
turned out not to be true Team Green did confirm that some of its cards will be

18
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:11,040
getting discounts for a limited time of course with the launch of RTX 4000

19
00:01:08,939 --> 00:01:15,720
series likely coming later this year the distinction between limited time deal

20
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:19,380
and reduced MSRP might be purely academic NVIDIA looks to be clearing out

21
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:23,820
some of its current high-end stock as the deal currently only applies to the

22
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:28,439
RTX 3080 12 gig Edition and up with the largest savings being 500 bucks off an

23
00:01:25,740 --> 00:01:33,060
RTX 3090 TI which drops it down to a super affordable 14.99 which I'm sure

24
00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:37,200
you all have in your couch cushions right about now look money wow what you

25
00:01:35,820 --> 00:01:40,799
might actually have laying around is an old laptop and you can now easily turn

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,820
it into a Chromebook as Google's Chrome OS Flex is now available to the general

27
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:48,900
public Chrome OS Flex is an installation tool you can put on any USB drive to

28
00:01:46,979 --> 00:01:52,020
install Chrome OS on any system you like the tool does a compatibility check

29
00:01:50,399 --> 00:01:55,259
first but it should be fine unless you're rocking some seriously ancient

30
00:01:53,759 --> 00:01:58,619
Hardware even though this new version of Chrome OS is being marketed towards

31
00:01:56,759 --> 00:02:02,159
bigger organizations trying to extend the life of their fleets of older

32
00:02:00,299 --> 00:02:04,979
devices it seems like it'd be useful for the average home user that just wants

33
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,880
another machine to browse the web and make calls on as the system requirements

34
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,580
for Chrome OS are still quite modest or you could install it on your five

35
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:16,620
thousand dollar gaming rig just to see what happens when you post about it on Reddit I post all my OS changes on

46
00:02:54,420 --> 00:03:00,000
quick bits the legal showdown between Elon Musk and Twitter is set to kick off

47
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:03,840
in just a few days as the two sides will have an initial hearing on July 19th in

48
00:03:01,980 --> 00:03:07,019
the Delaware Court of Chancery the dispute arose when Elon tried to back

49
00:03:05,340 --> 00:03:10,319
out of his bid to take over the social media giant so Twitter is now either

50
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,980
trying to force Elon to go through with it or pay the cost Twitter is incurring

51
00:03:12,420 --> 00:03:19,500
as a result of Elon breaking the contract ah I'm sure he always intended

52
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:23,580
to buy Twitter never was this a sham at all guaranteed right Alex yeah but you

53
00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:27,180
know it's not a sham drones delivering stuff from Amazon and it's finally

54
00:03:25,379 --> 00:03:30,659
coming to its Second City the lucky winners this time are College Station

55
00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:33,420
Texas the company is going to be getting in touch with customers there to see if

56
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,560
they're interested in getting their junk delivered via drone Jesus Christ and

57
00:03:35,940 --> 00:03:41,099
seeing as it's a smaller city with a large College population the decision

58
00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:44,879
seems to make sense maybe soon the skies around Texas A M will be filled with

59
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:48,900
drops of maroon colored care packages it's the school color if you don't get

60
00:03:46,980 --> 00:03:52,260
the joke valve is reportedly optimizing steamos to run on devices other than the

61
00:03:50,819 --> 00:03:55,500
steam deck that sounds pretty sick although gaming laptops are not nothing

62
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:59,220
new other companies have been trying their hand at devices that are closer to

63
00:03:57,239 --> 00:04:03,480
Portable consoles such as the winmax 2 from GPD a rather small laptop that has

64
00:04:01,620 --> 00:04:06,540
a Gamepad built in although it seems a little odd for valve to be helping

65
00:04:04,860 --> 00:04:09,840
Hardware Rivals it makes sense when you consider they'll get the steam store

66
00:04:08,099 --> 00:04:14,220
which means they're going to get sweet sweet cheddar when you overpay for all

67
00:04:11,459 --> 00:04:18,359
those DLCs and microtransactions and hats and crates everything just just

68
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:21,660
have your money well it turns out five percent of new car sales in the US are

69
00:04:19,979 --> 00:04:25,259
now electric which many folks consider the Tipping Point for broad adoptions

70
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:28,919
and it sounds like GM agrees as they've just announced a plan to construct a

71
00:04:26,940 --> 00:04:33,780
nationwide fast charging Network made up of 500 stations and 2 000 stalls the

72
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:37,259
first of which should be up and running early next year the stations are planned

73
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:40,139
to have amenities similar to current gas stations and Travel Centers because I

74
00:04:38,699 --> 00:04:44,340
want no part of that unless it comes with a microwave burrito and Sushi

75
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,720
assembled last week yeah and Wordle has come full circle in a

76
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:52,020
journey from smartphone sensation to an offline party game The New York Times

77
00:04:50,340 --> 00:04:55,800
who bought Wordle earlier this year is releasing a board game version with a

78
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:58,500
word board dry erase markets and little green and yellow tiles to make the game

79
00:04:57,180 --> 00:05:02,759
version a little bit more like the digital one the game will set you back 20 bucks and you can pre-order it now

80
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,240
but can you really put a price on gathering in person with your friends or

81
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:09,780
