00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.400
oh so just because you clicked this video you think you get tech news now

00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:10.960
that's that's correct that's how this works

00:00:08.559 --> 00:00:15.120
apple's apple card is not proof of your subscription to a monthly fruit delivery

00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:18.000
service but it is a real credit card and if you were hoping to use it to buy some

00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:22.240
cryptocurrency you're out of luck reuters went through

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:26.720
the cards customer agreement posted by apple on friday and spotted the no

00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:31.599
crypto restriction now this actually isn't that unusual there are widespread

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:36.800
rules and laws prohibiting using credit to buy cash equivalents like crypto or

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:41.280
assets explicitly used for gambling like casino gaming chips or lottery tickets

00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:45.200
so this shouldn't be too much of a scandal what's a bit more interesting is

00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:49.200
another clause in the agreement banning owners of jail broken iphones from using

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:53.120
the card that's because signing up for the card involves getting approval

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:58.160
through the wallet app on iOS which can apparently detect whether you jailbroke

00:00:55.440 --> 00:01:01.760
your phone i mean it's not surprising apple loves telling its users the very

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:09.280
specific way they're allowed to use their products uh hey can i repair my own computer

00:01:06.479 --> 00:01:12.720
no no that's for the peasants network provider cloudflare announced this

00:01:11.119 --> 00:01:16.960
morning that they dropped service for the internet forum 8chan the decision

00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:21.680
was made after evidence appeared to indicate that the shooter who allegedly

00:01:18.880 --> 00:01:27.040
killed 21 people in el paso texas over the weekend posted an anti-immigrant

00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:30.960
manifesto on the site the perpetrator of the christchurch mosque shootings in new

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:35.600
zealand also posted something similar on the site before his rampage in march

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:39.920
cloudflare ceo matthew prince said that 8chan has repeatedly proven itself to be

00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:44.640
a cesspool of hate and that while the company values free speech a-chan has

00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:49.200
become lawless and that lawlessness has caused multiple tragic deaths another

00:01:46.960 --> 00:01:52.960
network provider bit mitigate stepped in to restore service to a-chan but they

00:01:51.600 --> 00:01:58.479
were soon cut off by their infrastructure provider voxility and

00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:02.719
finally tuko's the domain name registrar for 8chan also pulled their service

00:02:01.759 --> 00:02:07.759
well 8chan see you later

00:02:05.360 --> 00:02:12.160
and amazon has joined apple and google in suspending or at least allowing

00:02:09.679 --> 00:02:16.319
people to opt out of having humans listen to voice recordings taken by

00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:20.319
smart speakers after multiple reports called out the three tech giants for the

00:02:17.920 --> 00:02:24.560
practice and a german privacy regulator announced an investigation apple and

00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:28.160
google globally suspended their human listening programs which they say allows

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:32.720
for better development of their respective digital assistants amazon

00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:36.160
hasn't completely stopped its human workers from listening in but the

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:40.640
company is allowing customers to opt out of the program by changing an option in

00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:45.680
the settings menu of the alexa mobile app so now amazon will only record the

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.760
voices of people who don't know they might be listened to by humans

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:55.120

don't burn your hands facebook owns whatsapp and instagram but

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:43.920
in case you forgot that those apps will now come with subtitles soon they'll be

00:03:41.519 --> 00:03:48.560
listed as whatsapp from facebook and instagram from facebook while it would

00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:52.720
be good to see visually just how much of a monopoly facebook has on popular apps

00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:57.200
it's unclear what will happen to instagram spin-off apps layout and

00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:01.200
boomerang i don't want to have an app on my phone called layout from instagram

00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:06.560
collage from facebook it's a little excessive

00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:10.480
i don't have that app on my phone now so i do we're finally starting to see some

00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:16.959
third-party versions of the surprisingly good Radeon rx 5700 and 5700 xt with

00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:21.040
designs from ASUS power color and xfx seeing the light of day this weekend xfx

00:04:19.280 --> 00:04:24.160
brought back their awesome minimalist design but then went and called it the

00:04:22.960 --> 00:04:28.880
xfx thick 2

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:32.320
with with two c's i should have made that the last story

00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:36.479
because i want to go home now htc will add a feature called vive port streaming

00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:41.120
to the vive focus plus standalone vr headset that will allow it to stream pc

00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:46.160
titles over a 5 gigahertz wi-fi connection that sounds pretty cool

00:04:43.919 --> 00:04:51.280
except you need to subscribe to htc's viveport infinity service to use the

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:53.199
feature and also streaming over wi-fi is

00:04:51.280 --> 00:04:57.600
never latency free even using 5 gigahertz so you might as well be

00:04:55.199 --> 00:05:00.880
subscribing to motion sickness infinity sounds like

00:04:59.520 --> 00:05:06.960
i don't i don't know i might be good i haven't tried it rumors have been flying about fan favorite cooling company cryo

00:05:04.880 --> 00:05:13.199
rig potentially folding but the company says they're not dead yet they're only

00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:14.560
mostly dead do you get the reference

00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:19.840
you do thank goodness well what they said is they've been affected by the tariffs

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:24.080
instituted as part of the us-china trade war and they're still active in asia and

00:05:21.520 --> 00:05:30.479
europe actually so so hold on to hope cryo fans they'll live to rig another

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:33.919
day i'm sorry i just nope and hey

00:05:30.479 --> 00:05:35.919
frankie zapata is not italian he's

00:05:33.919 --> 00:05:40.240
french and he just successfully crossed the english channel using his green

00:05:37.840 --> 00:05:45.039
goblin looking hoverboard contraption after the first attempt failed zapata

00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:49.360
made the 22 mile journey in 22 minutes that's

00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:53.520
about a minute a mile refueling on a boat halfway through the flight i'm

00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:57.360
surprised spider-man didn't stop him but there's really nothing to swing on out

00:05:54.960 --> 00:06:00.479
