00:00:00.359 --> 00:00:06.839
hello everyone it's me James and if it's all right with you I was thinking of

00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:13.200
sharing some tech news with you all got a few stories that just just tickled me

00:00:10.040 --> 00:00:15.039
oh well yeah okay go silence oh it's my

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:20.279
time with the audience Riley we're going to space Yes we

00:00:18.119 --> 00:00:25.560
finally figured it out or Jeff Bezos thinks he did anyway rather than let

00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:30.000
Elon Musk have a monopoly on dreams of space colonization Bezos shared his

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:33.600
vision for Humanity's Cosmic future at a blue origin event on Thursday the

00:00:32.239 --> 00:00:40.920
richest man in the world revealed a fullscale model of the company's moonlander called the Blue Moon which

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:42.840
could deliver up to 3.6 tons of cargo to

00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:48.800
the moon and could also be fitted with crew modules to Fair humans to and fro

00:00:46.120 --> 00:00:52.680
the lunar surface Bezos also laid out what he thinks is a more viable

00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:57.440
alternative for space expansion than musk's plan to colonize and terraform

00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:01.680
Mars O'Neal cylinders which are essentially enormous space stations

00:00:59.559 --> 00:01:06.479
inside inside which Humanity could build livable environments with cities Farms

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:10.240
mountains and beaches all these plans are starting to seem less like product

00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:14.479
or service announcements and more like Rich dude talks about cool sacii stuff

00:01:12.960 --> 00:01:19.960
you know what we really need to focus on the warp drive much more practical than

00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:24.240
traveling through wormholes yes I agree speaking of rich people Mark Zuckerberg

00:01:21.960 --> 00:01:28.520
is under attack from one of his former friends that's made up he never had

00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:33.159
friends Chris Hughes one of the four co-founders of Facebook left the company

00:01:30.479 --> 00:01:37.520
in 2007 but today wrote an oped in the New York Times denouncing Zuckerberg's

00:01:35.119 --> 00:01:41.920
leadership and calling for Facebook to be broken up as in dissolving its

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:46.320
Acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp unfortunately he also seemed to advocate

00:01:43.720 --> 00:01:50.240
for a government agency that monitors and censors speech on social media

00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:54.799
platforms so I don't know if we should listen to good old Chris Hughes for

00:01:52.479 --> 00:01:58.000
their part Facebook responded obviously saying that a breakup is not the best

00:01:56.399 --> 00:02:02.880
solution in their opinion because Facebook is a uh success uccessful

00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:07.280
American company oh dang I forgot Facebook was successful I guess we

00:02:05.360 --> 00:02:10.879
should just call the whole thing off that they're doing such a good job and

00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:15.879
there's a couple more little tidbits of lingering news from Google IO 2019 the

00:02:13.720 --> 00:02:22.080
company talked about its mysterious fuchsia OS for perhaps the first time in

00:02:18.440 --> 00:02:24.319
a major way Hiroshi lockheimer that's a

00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:28.560
funny pairing head of Android and Chrome OS told reporters that fuchsia is an

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:32.599
open- source project like Android but is meant to run on all kinds of devices

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:36.560
from Smart Home gadgets to phones to laptops and will be compatible with

00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:40.680
Android apps Google also announced that all Chromebooks going forward will be

00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:44.800
able to run Linux out of the box between this and Windows 10's upcoming native

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:50.280
support for the Linux kernel it's a good time to be a penguin unless your

00:02:47.760 --> 00:02:55.080
habitat's getting lost physically a great time to be a virtual penguin and

00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:59.360
finally Google naming its smart displays the nest Hub and Nest Hub Max was

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:04.080
indicative of a bigger move than it seemed Nest as a company is now Google

00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:07.840
nest and all the company's products are now being moved under the Google

00:03:05.760 --> 00:03:12.400
umbrella smart home devices that were part of the works well with Nest program

00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:16.920
will no longer work with Nest unless their developers join the works with

00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:21.760
Google assistant program that's sad but I've always been more of a burrow guy

00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:26.360
you know I'm a I'm a den animal I'm crate trained oh come on now it's time

00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:30.959
for quick bit Ubisoft just announced Ghost Recon breakpoint a more survival

00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:36.360
focused take on the squad-based third person shooter it will launch on up play

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:39.159
and the Epic gam store and not on Steam

00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:43.400
ha but I don't have an opinion but this isn't quite another example of Epic

00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:47.519
snagging another exclusive the past couple Ubisoft games have also not been

00:03:45.799 --> 00:03:51.720
available on Steam and whether you buy it on Epic or not you'll still have to

00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:56.079
launch up play to play it I'm trying to find something to be really mad about

00:03:53.159 --> 00:04:01.439
here but I I just can't got to be mad about something I love being mad leaks

00:03:59.079 --> 00:04:05.959
showing for the next iPhone seem to be designed to accommodate the three lens

00:04:03.799 --> 00:04:10.480
camera module I can't be mad about this either that we've seen in previous leaks

00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:19.160
so it's fair to assume that this is what we can expect to see in the iPhone 11 or

00:04:14.799 --> 00:04:21.320
uh 10 10i 101 or whatever it is a

00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:24.560
shockingly ugly design from Apple in my opinion I mean if it's not beautiful

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:28.440
what's the point you might as well get an ugly Android then that's why people

00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:32.720
get Apple products right they're pretty for pretty products for pretty people I

00:04:30.479 --> 00:04:36.600
don't know never had one I'm not not good looking enough I guess the EU has

00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:42.120
had its way with Google over the tech Giants anti-competitive practices and

00:04:38.440 --> 00:04:44.639
now India wants a go this is a little

00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:48.800
there's a subtext here did not sound the country's antitrust Watchdog has begun

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:53.240
an investigation which could see Google face staggering fines but they've

00:04:51.039 --> 00:04:58.680
already been fined $5 billion in Europe what's another two or three they own

00:04:55.280 --> 00:05:00.880
nest now the sky's the limit Amazon's

00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:05.400
Jeff Bezos may have moonshot dreams but Alibaba might be set to pull the rug out

00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:09.240
from under him here on Earth the Chinese e-commerce giant is now for the first

00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:13.560
time allowing foreign companies like Italy Russia Spain and turkey to sell

00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:17.880
Goods on its platform the news comes after Amazon announced that it was

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:24.039
ending its domestic e-commerce activity in China you take a step back and they

00:05:20.880 --> 00:05:26.479
go right for the jaw doesn't Bezos box

00:05:24.039 --> 00:05:30.199
and Dyson is known for its vacuums but the company has revealed a few details

00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:34.520
about its upcoming electric vehicle the car could apparently have larger

00:05:32.280 --> 00:05:39.800
than average wheels and generous passenger space patents apparently

00:05:36.520 --> 00:05:42.240
describe it as an androgynous vehicle I

00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:47.639
didn't know inanimate objects could be androgynous wow technology you crazy

00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:52.160
come a long way I don't know which sex organs this vehicle has go either way

00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:57.600
