WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.720
good work takes time which is why this show only takes one day to make tech

00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:10.000
longer on the other hand did you see that it was years you haven't watched it

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:14.160
yet not on my own time nope you watched it

00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:18.400
to review it though gamers trying to play their digitally purchased games on

00:00:15.920 --> 00:00:21.920
the playstation 3 or ps vita consoles have been running into error messages

00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:28.320
telling them that their games have expired sometimes with a date listed 50

00:00:25.119 --> 00:00:30.720
years in the past those are all consoles

00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:34.079
no no it's the time trolls again somebody call the super kids

00:00:34.239 --> 00:00:40.399
even though reports of expired games were proliferating across the web late

00:00:38.239 --> 00:00:43.760
last week sony has yet to address the issue at the time of filming leading

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:48.640
some to speculate that it might not just be a software glitch sony did announce

00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:52.559
they were shutting down the ps3 and psv to digital stores last year and only

00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:56.800
canceled their plans after backlash from players or maybe

00:00:54.640 --> 00:01:02.320
they knew this glitch was coming and were trying to save playstation players

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:04.320
from having to deal with it sony

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:09.920
is the time trolls quick to the super kids invisible jet

00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:13.280
you don't have a license yet so it turns out you might not be seeing a twitter

00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:17.920
bird on the side of a spacex rocket anytime soon as elon musk isn't joining

00:01:15.759 --> 00:01:23.119
the board of everyone's least favorite social media platform twitter even

00:01:20.240 --> 00:01:27.439
though that was reported last week was a joke it was so funny elon will

00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:32.000
keep his nine point two percent stake in the platform but apparently told ceo

00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:37.040
parag agrawal that he changed his mind on the day he was to be officially

00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:38.880
appointed to the board changed my mind

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.560
oh just kidding we're not sure what prompted the changeover forget it he

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:47.759
wants to edit tweets that's what he did in real life oh he edited his position

00:01:46.399 --> 00:01:50.960
we're not sure what prompted the change of heart especially as he seemed to have

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:54.479
plenty of opinions on how to improve the social network but it might have

00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:59.280
something to do with the fact that board members can't own more than 14.9 percent

00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:02.560
of twitter shares some analysts are thinking that rather

00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:06.719
than try to influence twitter from the inside musk might just buy up more

00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:11.840
shares and try to force twitter to change using

00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:13.599
that effective tool money

00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:16.319
when you put a bag of bills in it it can it can be it has already a majority

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:21.840
shareholder how does that change anything it has some heft to it is all i'm saying it's like a mace

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:25.520
elon has since deleted some of his tweets about twitter but don't worry

00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:30.080
they're coming back he's got lots to say he's gonna

00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:33.760
manipulate this market again and the xbox series x might get a

00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:37.599
slimmed down version in the near future with all the performance but half the

00:02:35.519 --> 00:02:41.760
calories because microsoft is rumored to be looking at a model of the series x

00:02:39.440 --> 00:02:45.680
with a more efficient processor series why series why although it probably

00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:49.120
won't result in your games running faster or looking better the reduced

00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:55.120
power consumption and thermals would allow microsoft to fit the series x

00:02:51.440 --> 00:02:56.879
hardware into a smaller chassis series b

00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:59.760
any of these are all options you take a piece off the x

00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:03.920
and this would be welcome news seeing as the current series x isn't exactly space

00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:07.840
saving honestly they might as well have made it bigger and included an actual

00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:10.319
fridge section in the console even though the fridge itself is pretty

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:16.000
cool have you ever used it it's a fridge it is i would hope so

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:18.959
i didn't even see that it's unclear exactly when we might see something like

00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:22.879
this on the market but seeing as the series x has been out for a couple years

00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:27.920
now it's got to be coming up soon i say we call it the xbox series little

00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:31.680
x a tiny instead of the biggest now it's time for quick bits brought to

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:35.680

techlinked here come the quick bits interrupting the episode again i've

00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:14.959
talked to them about this oh i'm upset

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:19.519
sony and lego are both pumping a billion dollars each into epic games sony did

00:04:17.840 --> 00:04:23.120
already have an ownership stake in epic but since epic seems to have this

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:26.560
problem where it just dumps a ton of money into buying exclusive games for

00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:29.680
the epic game store and filing lawsuits against apple and google that it can't

00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:33.040
hope to win i imagine they find themselves in need of cash regularly

00:04:31.840 --> 00:04:37.680
well that's what friends are for billion dollars

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:41.680
here you go some new leaks have sprung up related to the metaquest ii vr

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:45.600
headset courtesy of famed apple soothsayer ming chi kuo of the benny

00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:50.960
jesuit don't make eye contact expect to see a

00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:53.360
pair of 2160 by 2160 displays powered by

00:04:50.960 --> 00:04:58.320
mini leds facial recognition eye tracking and pancake lenses which would

00:04:55.840 --> 00:05:02.639
make the headset lighter so there's even less between you and the true reality

00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:08.000
the metaverse zuck will be waiting for you and he's

00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:10.080
ripped in the middle he's like welcome

00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:14.960
let's get jacked virtually apple has branched out to a new country to

00:05:11.520 --> 00:05:16.639
manufacture the iphone 13 india apple's

00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:19.680
actually no stranger to building phones there as this is going to be its fourth

00:05:18.320 --> 00:05:24.240
model of iphone to come out of the country but it's been a while since they've built a flagship there along

00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:27.680
with indian rules that heavily incentivize building electronics locally

00:05:26.320 --> 00:05:31.919
apple looks like it's trying to reduce its reliance on china in the midst of

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:35.120
strained chinese trade relations with the rest of the world plus china's

00:05:33.840 --> 00:05:39.199
making some sick phones of their own okay this is a segway but india likes

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:43.840
russia what do we do chinese tech company vivo has entered

00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:48.000
the folding phone race with the x-fold which shares its basic design with

00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:52.160
samsung's galaxy fold 3. there's 120 hertz OLED displays on the front and the

00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:56.000
inside but unlike other folding phones the x-fold has two ultrasonic

00:05:54.080 --> 00:06:00.080
fingerprint readers one under each display one-fifth your fingers are

00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:03.759
covered you can use any of your

00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:07.199
of course it's only launching in china right now because they have their whole

00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:11.600
own economy going on they don't even really need us anymore as you know

00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:18.319
i'm i'm fine with that can you unlock with both fingers at once like a chinese finger trap you can unlock with even

00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:22.639
anything you want and netflix is giving us a new rating option called two thumbs

00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:27.600
up and it's basically what it sounds like in that it's a way to super like

00:06:24.960 --> 00:06:33.120
something this means netflix went from a five point star rating system to a two

00:06:30.080 --> 00:06:35.520
point like dislike system to now a

00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:39.600
three-point like dislike super like system i can't wait until netflix adds a

00:06:37.440 --> 00:06:44.400
super dislike and a medium like and then we're back to five in innovation and

00:06:42.400 --> 00:06:47.440
