00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.480
hello everyone this is a slightly different tech link

00:00:03.360 --> 00:00:09.200
because Linus is using the tackling set and we

00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:13.120
are forced to use uh wherever we are right now what is

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:17.119
this i am also sitting down james is also very comfortable we're

00:00:14.920 --> 00:00:20.800
reclining oh and andy's going to sit down too all right here we go hey tell

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:27.490
you what if you've been planning to build a gaming rig primarily to play fortnite you might want to think twice

00:00:25.439 --> 00:00:29.039
especially if you have an ipad pro

00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:36.399
all right the game's latest apple app store update means fortnite now supports

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:39.760
120 frames per second on the 2018 ipad

00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:41.680
pro wow that's some extra buttery smooth

00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:45.200
flossing you know the thing can't do it because

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:48.079
i'm sitting as much as a gaming rig that's true

00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:51.520
it's a little more expensive do keep in mind that there is a resolution and

00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:55.840
quality trade-off and the frame rate does dip below 120 sometimes depending

00:00:54.480 --> 00:00:59.600
on what exactly is happening on your screen but it's still pretty cool to see

00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:03.359
this on a tablet especially as some platforms like the nintendo switch don't

00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:07.280
offer such an option for the more competitive among you the higher refresh

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:10.880
rate could offer a gameplay advantage though i'm not sure what the venn

00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:17.280
diagram with hardcore esports enthusiasts and ipad pro gamers would

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:19.439
look like probably very small ah ces

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:24.479
2020 was a bit disappointing for those of us who expected more playstation 5

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:28.000
news other than what the name was but now it looks like we might be seeing a

00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:32.799
lot more of the upcoming console very soon more than the logo

00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:36.320
imagine a god of war developer tweeted last week that we're less than a month

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:40.240
out from the official reveal another leak also suggests we'll be seeing it in

00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:46.159
early february with it going on sale in october for 499 us dollars or 449 of the

00:01:43.759 --> 00:01:49.680
majesties pounds and if the leak that performance will be similar to the

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:52.640
upcoming xbox series x for 100 bucks less is true

00:01:51.119 --> 00:01:56.960
it might put microsoft in a very difficult spot of course these are all

00:01:54.880 --> 00:02:00.159
just rumors for the moment but at least it gives you something to look forward

00:01:58.320 --> 00:02:04.880
to for next month if you're facing the prospect of spending another valentine's

00:02:02.479 --> 00:02:08.879
day alone but that doesn't matter as long as you

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:15.120
got a nice comfy pillow now that i'm married i i wish my valentine's day was

00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:17.599
alone james that's rude ah but tesla now

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:22.800
they're facing a possibly massive recall in the united states following reports

00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:26.640
like this one that the cars are suddenly speeding up without warning to the

00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:30.720
driver well that was a joke about something that's kind of serious

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:36.000
the recall could affect half a million teslas including the model s the model x

00:02:33.200 --> 00:02:39.760
and the model 3. all of them except the cyber truck the

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:44.000
investigation by u.s authorities comes after a number of complaints involving

00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:48.080
over 120 individual vehicles while this is quite alarming if you've bought an

00:02:45.760 --> 00:02:51.440
elon mobile an important thing to note is that some of these complaints appear

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:54.959
to have come from an investor who's notorious for wanting to see tesla's

00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:58.959
stock fall and claims of unintended acceleration

00:02:57.440 --> 00:03:05.200
involving other vehicles in the past have often come from user error like

00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:07.120
accidentally stepping on the gas

00:03:05.200 --> 00:03:11.280
i do that all the time so maybe ai isn't actually plotting to

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:15.280
kill us all yet that's the that's the key

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:19.920
modifier there the quick bits brought to you by the mass drop x sennheiser hd6xx

00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:55.519
boeing ooh looks like it's taking another black eye on the now notorious

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.920
737 max airliner although it's spent

00:03:55.519 --> 00:04:01.599
months trying to work out a software bug there's now apparently another issue

00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:07.760
with the flight control computers that keeps the plane from even taking off now

00:04:04.799 --> 00:04:11.840
that's safer i'm no aviation expert it seems like they should just yeah

00:04:09.760 --> 00:04:18.560
stay safe and just not take off stay on the tarmac what dennis we're filming

00:04:16.320 --> 00:04:22.320
i wish there was a camera on his face he just looks and he's like

00:04:20.320 --> 00:04:25.759
oh the mental health director of britain's national health service is

00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:30.320
calling for the uk to follow in belgium's footsteps and ban loot boxes

00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:34.800
similar to other officials who have criticized this trend in gaming the nhs

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:39.040
views buying loot boxes as a form of gambling the nhs is also planning to

00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:42.400
open up more gambling clinics across the country but i wonder how many of their

00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:48.000
visitors will come in with a loot box problem versus just having lost way too

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.000
much money betting on the premier league

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:54.080
it's not the premier league the prem it's a

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:57.520
soccer edsel premier league have you heard of it

00:04:56.080 --> 00:05:03.040
football nintendo is looking at switching up the

00:05:00.080 --> 00:05:06.080
joy-con yet again if a new patent is believed

00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:09.280
the console gaming giant has filed a patent for a new design that

00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:12.720
incorporates a stylus into the controller and while it might not have

00:05:11.039 --> 00:05:17.039
much use for action games it could definitely come in handy for titles like

00:05:14.320 --> 00:05:21.039
super mario maker no word on if or when it'll be released but i'm definitely

00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:25.759
looking forward to another small easy to lose electronics accessory i

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:29.680
want a stylus for all my devices although the opera browser has built up

00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:33.440
a pretty solid reputation over the years there have been reports recently that

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:38.960
under new ownership it has apps in the google play store offering predatory

00:05:35.440 --> 00:05:41.120
loans to users in kenya nigeria and

00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:45.520
india some with interest rates of over 800 percent we've yet to see if the

00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:49.360
reports are true and if google will ban the apps and this seems like a good time

00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:54.320
to remind our wonderful viewers to stay far away from payday loans i know it it

00:05:52.320 --> 00:05:58.240
seems like a great deal you get money right now yeah but no obligation

00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:05.440
and the fbi has seized the website we leak info which is exactly what it

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:09.759
sounds like a reseller of usernames and passwords stolen in data breaches the

00:06:07.919 --> 00:06:13.680
suspected perps have also been arrested by cops in the netherlands and northern

00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:17.840
ireland definitely a good thing as the site's owners were selling subscription

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:22.080
access to the stolen credentials for as low as two dollars so don't forget to

00:06:19.919 --> 00:06:26.639
check have i been pwned to make sure your private info wasn't sold for the

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:31.360
price of a coca-cola all right that's our show guys come back on wednesday for

00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:35.360
