i know lots of things about technology especially technology news
got got a problem with that oh i'm wearing the wrong shirt hold on
microsoft is reportedly planning on treating console ownership a lot more
like phone ownership sources at the company have told Windows central that a
plan called xbox all access which sounds
a lot more to us like xbox all paid access is in development which would
give users free xbox hardware once they
sign up for xbox live and the subscription gaming service xbox games
pass for two years too bad i'm already signed up for both lol no i'm not so
it's 22 bucks a month that would get you an xbox one s and 35 bucks a month would
get you a 4k capable xbox one x and then
you would own those consoles after the two years is up that would make it a
little cheaper over time to sign up for the program rather than buying those
components separately but not my much will this program be enough to let
microsoft compete with sony and console sales i i don't know and i'm actually
not sure if i care can you can you pre-order a subscription plan like
i mean you know actually i think this is a brilliant idea that's probably really
smart yeah yeah i know i know it's not fun it's
it's not memeable facebook has been forced to remove its vpn app from the
iOS app store after apple discovered that the app violates the store's data
collection policies no not facebook wait facebook acquired a
navo in 2013 and has been fairly open about how the app works while it does
protect your data from being snooped on by external actors it also sends data
about your device to facebook including app usage website visits and more and
more watch out you watch out for that more but ironically the app promises to keep
you and your data safe and secure your personal information and there's no
safer place than facebook servers they say mark zuckerberg nests there sleeping
on top of all that data like it's his reptilian eggs australia has reportedly
banned chinese tech companies huawei and zte from providing 5g tech for their
cellular networks the ban follows moves made by the us and the uk to draw
attention to the potential security threat posed by working closely with
chinese tech companies the argument is that relatively new legislation requires
chinese companies to support assist and
cooperate with state intelligence work meaning that whatever data companies
like huawei gather on western citizens could be used to contribute to china's
foreign intelligence huawei is the world's biggest producer of telecoms
equipment so this will only continue to be a contentious issue in the future as
for me i love china china loves me you
just ask chyna what they think of me they'll tell you
i mean they'll probably not not a language i can speak with what they'll
say but it's time for quick beats brought to you
by synergy i didn't say quick bits i said quick beats yeah it's not the same
thing if you're an i.t professional or a power user who uses two or more
computers at the same time that run a different operating system like Windows
Linux or macOS you probably have different sets of keyboards and mice for
each system unless you're really smart and you already have synergy because
synergy combines your desktop computers together into one cohesive system
allowing you to run a single keyboard and mouse across all of them so stop
juggling mice and get back to work stay hydrated helps with headaches on to the
rest of the news hardware enthusiasts were in an uproar
they do that don't they the past couple of days after Intel released microcode
updates meant to fix the spectre meltdown and foreshadow vulnerabilities
along with a license that forbade users
from running benchmarks comparing the before and after well as it turns out it
was just a very embarrassing typo and until released an updated license that
removes the offended language so now we can benchmark to our heart's contents i
mean that's what i'll be doing all weekend how about you sun and fun
i'll take just fun thank you dji has taken the wraps off the successors to
the mavic the mavic 2 pro and the mavic 2 zoom with the only difference between
the two being the variation on the hasselblad produced camera so the zoom
combines a 24 to 48 millimeter lens with 2x digital zoom to simulate the effects
of a 96 millimeter lens with its camera and the pro doesn't ha that doesn't seem
very pro at all does it no speaking of pro not Windows 95 nostalgic for Windows
95 well you can now install it as an app thanks to developer felix
reezeberg you can run all the classics paint
minesweeper solitaire it's like it's best hits you know but can it run crisis
no valve's dota 2 tournament the international is in full swing right
here in vancouver but i didn't go um because it's downtown and that's really
far i'd have to drive but one of the more interesting matches taking place is
one between humans and ai bots created
by elon musk's open ai initiative there's good news though the humans did
beat the bots which hopefully points to some kind of cool the last starfighter
situation happening in the future or like like PoE dameron being relevant
when the technology has reached that level you know as if you'd put an actual
human and starfighter looking around like that verizon says it will soon
introduce a new unlimited data plan with no caps that's right my friends you know
better no matter how bad their hair is they're just gonna let it all hang out
uh there will be no caps for first responders after they throttled the data
of firefighters during the california wildfires i mean i imagine the marketing
will be like something along the lines of you thought our unlimited plan was
unlimited well this is unlimited unlimited verizon do you know what the
word unlimited means i don't think you do and i don't either and that's fine
because that's it for tech link this is this is unlimited TechLinked it's it's
over now subscribe to the channel for tech news like the video for kicks
dislike it for we'll kick you and then i'll see you next time
bye no i'm not going to talk about the knicks
no they're bad team lakers lakers for life
i actually don't care about any nba teams so yeah me neither jordan
