00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:09,760
ah that's good james can we do the show please oh sorry i was just enjoying a

2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:14,080
refreshing drink from the new Linus tech tech tips insulated water bottle with a

3
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:19,520
super cool matte black motherboard design now available on the LTT Store

4
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:23,840
the latest Windows update was released on april 9th and it promptly started

5
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:29,359
breaking systems with anti-virus software installed naturally security

6
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:34,399
apps from sofos avast avira and archibit are all affected causing systems to

7
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:36,320
freeze or run ridiculously slowly when

8
00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:40,960
their user attempts to log into Windows 10. now mcafee apps are also messed up

9
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:47,520
although they're already kind of freaking annoying when they work properly i can only imagine them acting

10
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:49,840
up as badly as the company's founder that

11
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:54,239
i don't i would delete it i don't install the the best fix right now seems

12
00:00:52,239 --> 00:00:58,800
to be booting into safe mode disabling your antivirus then restarting and

13
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:02,160
strangely adding your own security apps folder to the list of excluded locations

14
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:06,880
to scan also helps apparently which is just

15
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:10,880
trippy i feel like i'm in one of the john mcafee's fevered dreams ah that

16
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:15,439
doesn't sound like a good time it's great to see tech giants playing nice

17
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:20,320
for a change amazon and google have both made one of the other services available

18
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:24,960
on their respective platforms with uh the youtube app now on fire tv devices

19
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:29,360
and prime video now accessible through chromecast now to be fair the fact that

20
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:34,159
they weren't available is a result of a spat between the two tech giants back in

21
00:01:31,439 --> 00:01:38,720
2017 when amazon.com refused to carry google products so google pulled youtube

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:43,520
support from the echo show which prompted amazon to pull prime video

23
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:49,119
support on chromecast and then google also pulled youtube support from fire tv

24
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,119
sticks but this is progress people

25
00:01:49,119 --> 00:01:55,119
holding grudges isn't healthy but since they're still competitors they also

26
00:01:52,960 --> 00:02:00,079
launched competing services on the same day free ad-supported music playback is

27
00:01:57,759 --> 00:02:04,320
now available on echo devices by amazon music and google home devices via

28
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:10,160
youtube music and you still can't use the youtube app on the echo show the

29
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:12,400
drama continues xoxo gossip girl

30
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:16,640
facebook stop enough the latest security snafu from

31
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:22,560
the social media giant is the news that it did an oopsy and unintentionally

32
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:27,680
uploaded 1.5 million users email contacts to the platform uh since may

33
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:32,000
2016. this screw-up was related to facebook's request for users to input

34
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:36,000
their email passwords in order to log in the email credentials were apparently

35
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:40,080
used to harvest users contact lists without their permission which would be

36
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:44,160
less concerning if facebook already hadn't demonstrated it it sucks at

37
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:47,519
security this week the company also admitted that

38
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:52,879
millions of instagram passwords were stored in unencrypted plain text format

39
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:57,200
in addition to the 600 million facebook passwords we've already heard about huh

40
00:02:55,519 --> 00:03:01,120
sounds like a great time to announce that facebook is working on a voice

41
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:04,800
assistant to rival google assistant and amazon's alexa

42
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:10,400
no no it's not a good time for that facebook it'll probably never be a good

43
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:15,360
time ever in the future i don't think you should do that

44
00:03:12,239 --> 00:03:16,879
at all stop but we can't stop because

45
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:22,239
it's time for the quick bits brought to you by my favorite madrina's coffee

46
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:29,680
do you like coffee and Linus tech tips then you'll love the LTT lambo roast by

47
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:34,000
madrinas it's got a sweet chocolatey flavor a huge bold body and smooth

48

caramel finish in fact i want to eat this whole damn bag right now well

49
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:42,400
that's probably not a good idea a good idea would be having someone drink oh

50
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:46,560
you're going to throw that too madrina's cool grew coffee and i can don't eat

51

00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:55,920
vanilla cappuccino the real kicker is you can get 40 off your entire order

53
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:58,159

56
00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:11,840
nintendo reportedly plans to release a smaller cheaper version of the switch

57
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:16,320
console by the end of the year before releasing a higher end model sometime

58
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:20,000
next year maybe the cheaper one won't come with controllers and maybe it'll

59
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:24,320
run Android and maybe maybe it's just a phone after an expose by the

60
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:27,759
hard-hitting reporters at buzzfeed news okay that's going to take me a while to

61
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:33,120
get used to google has taken down six seemingly benign apps made by chinese

62
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:37,040
company du group do group which were collecting and sending user data to

63
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:41,919
china as well as running background processes that clicked on web ads to

64
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:45,360
generate revenue the apps had over 90 million downloads altogether so next

65
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:50,000
time you think you need to download an app for something you better not

66
00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:54,720
play it safe guys ride sharing service car to go saw over

67
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:58,240
100 of its vehicles hijacked in chicago and used to commit crimes

68
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,600
the incident was initially thought to be the result of a software hack but

69
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:05,520
cardigo denied this saying it was instead an instance of fraud

70
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:11,120
21 people have since been arrested and charged i don't know how 21 people drove

71
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:14,080
100 cars let me get to the math here uh we'll wait until the investigation

72
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:19,120
concludes either way pretty impressive probably used computers it's like when

73
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:23,360
you walk like six dogs at once amazon is bowing out of part of its

74
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:28,639
commercial operations in china after apparently failing to compete with local

75
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:32,479
companies like alibaba and jd.com chinese customers can still order

76
00:05:30,479 --> 00:05:36,080
products off of amazon but the online store will no longer be open to

77
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,720
third-party sellers and that's most of the sellers amazon

78
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:44,400
found out the hard way china number one and of all the people to hack in the

79
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:48,240
whole world you wouldn't think that the weather channel would be at the top of

80
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:52,479
the list but yesterday the network was taken off the air by a ransomware attack

81
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:57,039
apparently they sorted things out as the channel came back up after an hour but

82
00:05:54,960 --> 00:06:00,560
come on the weather channel they're just out here trying to help people avoid
