00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.799
what's that you're not quite ready for the tech news are you mad the tech news

00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:09.279
waits for no man begin

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:16.080
turns out there's a reason that the Windows 10 october update screwed up so

00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:20.880
many people's computers before microsoft was finally able to fix it so you might

00:00:18.400 --> 00:00:25.279
already know that major Windows updates called b updates are released on the

00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:29.679
second tuesday of each month known as patch tuesdays but microsoft revealed in

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:34.800
a blog post this week that the third and fourth weeks in each month well they're

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:36.960
called c and d updates which include bug

00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:41.440
fixes and non-security related improvements so they can be texted a bit

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:46.239
before the next month's major b release these are apparently rolled out to users

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:51.200
who manually click the check for updates button in Windows settings meaning

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:55.039
these users are unwittingly becoming essentially beta testers but microsoft

00:00:53.199 --> 00:00:59.520
says that they view these users as seekers who are looking for the newest

00:00:57.120 --> 00:01:03.840
features whether they're polished or not even if that means that these features

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:08.000
will delete all their files which is what happened to seekers who got the

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:12.479
october update first some people might be complaining about this whole bcd

00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:15.840
system but really clicking that button is kind of fun it's like a kinder

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:20.080
surprise you never know what you're gonna get do you like gambling yes you

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:24.560
do after qualcomm won an injunction in

00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:28.320
chinese court potentially banning the sale of older iphones in china apple has

00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:34.079
announced that a software update is coming that should prevent that from happening qualcomm says iphones infringe

00:01:32.320 --> 00:01:38.400
on two of their patents involving resizing photos and managing apps on a

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:44.400
touchscreen display while the original injunction affected all iphones except

00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:46.399
the 10s 10r and 10s max qualcomm just

00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:50.560
went back to chinese court to try and get those newer phones banned as well

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:54.159
apple's software update should change iOS so that it does not infringe on

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:57.920
qualcomm's patents but if china's courts disagree apple says it'll be forced to

00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:00.960
settle with qualcomm which should make for some fun meetings like the ones

00:01:59.600 --> 00:02:04.880
