WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:16.800 Some Windows 11 users have reported a weird new bug introduced by a recent preview build 00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:20.640 that appeared to make the password sign-in option vanish. 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:25.560 But don't worry, you can actually bring up the password box and can log in normally using 00:00:25.560 --> 00:00:33.400 Microsoft's recommended fix. But hover your mouse over where the icon should be and think happy thoughts. 00:00:33.400 --> 00:00:39.880 Because it's invisible, but still clickable. I think Microsoft is just trying to make Windows 11 more appealing by gamifying the login 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:46.720 screen. Where is it? One thing that's not making Windows 11 more appealing is its recent update to File Explorer, 00:00:46.720 --> 00:00:50.760 which preloads in the background to improve its speed and performance. 00:00:50.760 --> 00:00:56.520 That sounds nice, but while File Explorer is reportedly running faster than it was before, 00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:01.640 it's actually still running slower than it did in Windows 10, and using almost twice 00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:08.000 as much RAM as it did before the update. We're in the holiday season now, and it looks like Microsoft wants Windows 11 to be the 00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:14.760 gift that keeps on giving. Unfortunately, they think we all want bugs in our stockings. 00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:19.640 Who are we? Timon and Pumbaya, come on! 00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.920 I said scram! 00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.760 Timon and Google just teamed up to launch a new service that makes it way easier for 00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:32.800 companies who use both Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud to connect them as if they're 00:01:32.800 --> 00:01:38.120 on the same network. Previously, companies had to spend thousands of dollars jumping through hoops to achieve 00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.960 redundancy between systems and, and this is why this is important, considering how often 00:01:42.960 --> 00:01:47.760 cloud infrastructure seems to be breaking these days, having an easy way to switch to 00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:52.480 backup systems would be grand if we're all a little sick of having the entire internet 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:58.240 break every few weeks. I don't mind it, you know, take a break. 00:01:58.240 --> 00:02:03.680 It's not that bad. Get outside. Oh, that's what a real cloud is. 00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:10.960 The system combines AWS's Interconnect multi-cloud with Google's CrossCloud Interconnect, 00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:15.560 and introduces a new open standard that other cloud providers can use too. 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.400 Everything is encrypted by default, built with four layers of backup, and will be monitored 00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:25.360 constantly by eagle-eyed IT techs who have sworn an oath to keep Twitter operational. 00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:30.080 They may not agree with you, but they will fight for your right to post every one of 00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:37.280 your deranged inner thoughts. OpenAI appears to be testing ads inside chatGPT conversations, because the company is going 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:42.320 to have to make some cash eventually if we all want chatbots to continue glazing our 00:02:42.320 --> 00:02:51.000 every deranged inner thought. Developer developer Tibor Blaho dug into the latest Android beta and found explicit references 00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.880 to what is clearly some kind of ads feature, including strings for a search ads carousel 00:02:56.880 --> 00:03:04.200 and bazaar content. To be clear, bazaar is in marketplace, although there's plenty of bazaar AI slop out there, 00:03:04.200 --> 00:03:11.080 you know what I mean? This would make chatGPT the first major generalized chatbot to directly integrate ads, although 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:16.200 Google added sponsored results as part of its AI search tools this year, and Amazon's 00:03:16.200 --> 00:03:20.480 Rufus Shopping Assistant chatbot is basically just one big ad. 00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:24.720 If AI companies are going to keep this bubble bubbling though, they need to monetize, even 00:03:24.720 --> 00:03:28.440 if AI is still about as reliable as a McDonald's ice cream machine. 00:03:28.440 --> 00:03:33.440 A recent study found that nearly 21% of peer reviews submitted to an AI research publication 00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:39.100 conference were likely AI-generated, meaning hallucination-prone chatbots are evaluating 00:03:39.100 --> 00:03:42.140 how badly other chatbots hallucinate. 00:03:42.140 --> 00:03:49.100 Seems reasonable. Whoa, is it just me or can all of you guys also see our sponsor right there? 00:03:49.100 --> 00:03:55.140 Uh, I think they're at Joe Mama's house. 00:03:55.140 --> 00:03:59.380 Get outta here! What if I tell ya like I'm gonna tell that guy about the quick bits? 00:03:59.380 --> 00:04:06.660 I'll tell you though. Ioneo has exposed its beefy next to handheld PC and it's chunky. 00:04:06.660 --> 00:04:13.420 The Windows-based gaming handheld has a 9-inch OLED display, an AMD Ryzen AI Max Plus 395 00:04:13.420 --> 00:04:20.380 chip, aka Strix Halo, a big old 115Wh battery, and hall joysticks and linear triggers to 00:04:20.380 --> 00:04:27.180 go with the touchpads too. The next two looks like a top-tier portable gaming device meant to run AAA PC games, but 00:04:27.180 --> 00:04:32.340 given its size and power, don't expect it to be light or tiny, instead chunky. 00:04:32.340 --> 00:04:39.060 With the GDP Win 5 and its buxom removable high-capacity battery preceding the Ioneo's 00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:43.820 new large and in-charge flagship, it appears we're entering the handheld market's Gears 00:04:43.820 --> 00:04:48.020 of War era. Things are getting chunky. 00:04:48.020 --> 00:04:57.100 Girl your thicker than a bowl of oatmeal. AMD appears to have accidentally confirmed the existence of the Ryzen 7 9850X3D. 00:04:57.100 --> 00:05:02.060 The unannounced chip was first spotted on a since-removed AMD support page, but AMD 00:05:02.060 --> 00:05:06.940 didn't act quickly enough to stop folks from learning that it's basically the same 8-core 00:05:06.940 --> 00:05:14.060 16-thread chip as the 9800X3D, but with a bump in boost clocks up to 5.6GHz. 00:05:14.060 --> 00:05:18.780 Watch out PC part-picker, there's a new default recommended high-end gaming CPU on 00:05:18.780 --> 00:05:22.060 the block, and it doesn't take no sh**. 00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:26.460 I like that AMD is acting like someone who got caught buying a present for someone else. 00:05:26.460 --> 00:05:29.340 Oh, funny running into you at the mall, me? 00:05:29.900 --> 00:05:33.820 I'm just here for a walk, gotta get my steps in that bag? Uh, what bag? 00:05:33.820 --> 00:05:39.740 Ah, don't look at that bag! Ah, there's no unannounced CPU for you in there, it doesn't exist! 00:05:39.740 --> 00:05:47.260 This joke needs work! Netflix has quietly killed the ability to cast from phones to newer Chromecasts, Google 00:05:47.260 --> 00:05:50.860 TV streamers, and most Android TV sets. 00:05:50.860 --> 00:05:56.940 For some reason. The company updated its help page saying you now have to use the actual Netflix app on 00:05:56.940 --> 00:06:02.140 those affected devices, because apparently having a remote means you aren't allowed to 00:06:02.140 --> 00:06:07.380 cast. You should have thought of that before you bought a remote device. 00:06:07.380 --> 00:06:11.220 At least the feature still works on older Chromecast devices, right? 00:06:11.220 --> 00:06:17.860 We said that like as a question, but I think it's true. For everyone else though, they now get rewarded with a nice, completely useless button on 00:06:17.860 --> 00:06:20.860 their screen. This is the future. Get used to it. 00:06:20.860 --> 00:06:25.980 The government of India has ordered all smartphone makers, including Apple, to ship phones sold 00:06:26.020 --> 00:06:32.340 over there with a state-owned security app called Sanchar Sathi pre-installed, and users 00:06:32.340 --> 00:06:41.060 won't be allowed to delete or disable it. The government says the app helps catch stolen phones, block scam-related IMEI spoofing, 00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:46.620 and spot fraudulent connections. But critics worry this could undercut user privacy and consent. 00:06:46.620 --> 00:06:50.820 Remember how pissed people were when the iPhone 6 launched with a U2 album in everyone's 00:06:50.820 --> 00:06:56.340 iTunes automatically? Now governments are forcing your phones to come with surveillance apps installed, and 00:06:56.340 --> 00:07:00.100 nobody bats an eye. You too must really suck. 00:07:00.100 --> 00:07:06.100 And Japan's new 60 million yen mirai human washing machine, a capsule that washes and 00:07:06.100 --> 00:07:11.380 dries you in 15 minutes using microbubbles and soothing music, that does the cleaning 00:07:11.380 --> 00:07:17.980 too. Sonic Blasting is officially heading to commercial sale after going viral at the Osaka Kansai 00:07:17.980 --> 00:07:22.780 Expo. It'll be on display in Tokyo starting December 25th. 00:07:22.780 --> 00:07:30.540 Christmas? What a gift! With trial sessions available, though the exact trial date still isn't locked in. 00:07:30.540 --> 00:07:36.180 The machine is being developed by those silly guys over at the aptly named Science Incorporated, 00:07:36.180 --> 00:07:40.980 where shockingly, they might actually do science. This thing seems legit. 00:07:40.980 --> 00:07:45.740 For now, production will be limited to 40-50 units over the next 6 years. 00:07:45.740 --> 00:07:49.900 No one's gonna get clean. The potential cheaper home model somewhere down the line. 00:07:49.900 --> 00:07:55.300 I can't wait for a machine that can clean your body and your shame after buying a 60 00:07:55.300 --> 00:08:02.260 million yen bathtub. Apparently that's 385,000 US dollars, so yeah, that's about shame, ballpark. 00:08:02.260 --> 00:08:07.420 And you should go take a bath, ya stinker, but come back on Wednesday for more tech news. 00:08:07.420 --> 00:08:12.740 I'm gonna go find that guy who was pestering me all show and beat him up. 00:08:12.740 --> 00:08:16.620 Come here, you. I wouldn't do that. This is grumpy rider. 00:08:16.620 --> 00:08:19.620 This is New York rider. I couldn't. 00:08:19.620 --> 00:08:22.620 Well. Not on camera. Alright. 00:08:22.620 --> 00:08:25.620 No. No. No. 00:08:25.620 --> 00:08:28.620 No. No. No. 00:08:28.620 --> 00:08:31.620 No. No. No. 00:08:31.620 --> 00:08:34.620 No. No. No. 00:08:34.620 --> 00:08:37.620 No. No. No. 00:08:37.620 --> 00:08:40.620 No. No. No. 00:08:40.620 --> 00:08:41.620 No.
