00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:08.160
you came back i never thought i'd see you again get it together james

00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:13.040
apple mostly won its big legal fight with epic games over the iOS app store

00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:17.440
but the judge did order apple to allow app developers to include buttons or

00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:22.080
links to third-party payment options by december 9th

00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:26.640
it's we're not there yet apple requested a stay on that order but yesterday it

00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:32.320
was denied by judge Yvonne gonzalez rogers known in the biz as gonzo because

00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:36.239
she does not care about your feelings apple is going to appeal this decision

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:40.480
because lawyers need to eat but also because they claim it's going to take

00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.200
months to figure out how to roll out the change

00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:49.440
i mean i believe it would take apple months there apparently have to be guardrails and guidelines to protect

00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:52.399
children developers consumers and apple wait

00:00:50.239 --> 00:00:57.039
what are we talking about links a link to a website and an app apple you don't

00:00:55.120 --> 00:01:02.000
have to make them you just have to let the developers add them something apple

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:05.760
has already done for reader apps like netflix but who knows apple is

00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:08.880
apparently looking into cryptocurrency so maybe their engineers are already

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:13.600
confused about why something that is so decentralized is so popular it's like

00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:17.920
people don't want giant companies controlling what they're allowed to do

00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:22.240
so weird how do they decide how to act apple did make sort of a good guy move

00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:25.680
this week though it announced an upcoming software update that would

00:01:23.759 --> 00:01:31.439
allow third party repair shops to replace the iphone 13 screen without

00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:34.880
breaking face id ifixit pointed out last week that the only way to do this

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:38.960
currently is to remove a tiny microcontroller from the old screen and

00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:42.079
solder it on the new screen which is incredibly difficult and requires

00:01:40.320 --> 00:01:46.079
special equipment but that's because iphones are special

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:50.079
why didn't you get this meanwhile at the genius bar

00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:54.720
they had a simple software tool that will keep face id working no problem

00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:58.560
apple hasn't said when the update will arrive but if you don't want to wait you

00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:03.840
can just sign your small business up for the apple business essentials subscription which will give you access

00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:08.640
to signature apple brand it management and on-site repairs so exciting a

00:02:06.320 --> 00:02:14.640
real-life apple genius coming to my office what do i offer them wine

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:18.640
a family heirloom a kiss google cares about small businesses too which is why

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:23.040
they're warning them about a potential legislation that could hurt those small

00:02:21.040 --> 00:02:27.280
businesses bottom line business owners have gotten emails from google alerting

00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:32.000
them to the dangers of the of of the ending platform monopolies act

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:36.160
a proposed bill that would ban google and other platforms from favoring their

00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:40.000
own services such a change could make it harder to find your business online

00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:43.760
costing you time and money according to google sure it seems desperate but big

00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:48.879
tech companies are under more of a threat from proposed regulation than ever like the filter bubble transparency

00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:53.920
act which would force companies like facebook to provide users with an option

00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:57.840
to opt out of algorithmic content feeds i mean it's gotta be stronger than that

00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:02.080
imo google themselves just got slapped with a 2.4 billion euro antitrust fine

00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:06.720
over favoring google shopping results in search although they may still appeal

00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:10.959
that but until then they're appealing a different kind of appealing to small

00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:15.120
businesses fear of being buried on page two of the search results or if you're

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:18.640
on a phone scrolling really far a fate worse than death now it's time for the

valve has announced the launch of its highly anticipated steam deck gaming

00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:03.360
handheld has been delayed two months to february 2022 i really wanted one for

00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:08.879
christmas dude of course the global supply chain issues currently ravaging

00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:11.519
the earth like a plague a pestilence

00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:15.280
the fifth horseman chip shortage in their blog post valve said they're

00:04:13.519 --> 00:04:18.000
sorry which is kind of like apologizing for being late to a meeting because you

00:04:16.799 --> 00:04:22.479
were attacked by a team of super villains it's not your fault all the

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:26.800
time you know understandable just make the steam deck good because i need a

00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:30.320
good portable console to emulate n64 games on gotham

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:34.960
youtube is currently rolling out a change that removes the publicly visible

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:37.840
dislike counter from all youtube videos including this one in the future the

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:41.520
company says their research showed that this measure reduces the likelihood

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:44.479
users will target a video's dislike button to drive up the account or drive

00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:49.280
down the drive up the dislock which will

00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:54.320
hopefully ensure no creator ever has to endure public criticism ever again also

00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.759
creators can still see their own videos dislike counts in the youtube studio

00:04:56.080 --> 00:05:01.040
quantifying hate will soon be a privilege you guys better dislike this

00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:05.520
video while you can still feel like you're part of something rude microsoft

00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:08.800
has announced the surface laptop se designed specifically for schools and

00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:13.759
students who will be the only entities actually allowed to buy one it starts at

00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:18.160
a cool 250 bucks has some decent i o and honestly reminds us of those old plastic

00:05:16.080 --> 00:05:22.800
macbooks the surface laptop se will be running Windows 11 se which is optimized

00:05:20.479 --> 00:05:26.800
for low end hardware is easy easy to set up and manage and has the microsoft

00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:30.639
store disabled and it also limits Windows snapping to only two apps at

00:05:28.880 --> 00:05:34.800
once think of it this way kids it's like holding two phones at once huh

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:38.080
why why would you want three that's silly

00:05:35.919 --> 00:05:41.600
one tick one talk reports have been flooding in for weeks now that the

00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:44.800
oneplus nord 2 is exploding causing damage to clothing and the people

00:05:43.280 --> 00:05:48.240
wearing their clothing holding the phones oneplus says the incidents are

00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:51.840
isolated cases but they're collecting details to investigate further because

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:56.800
you wouldn't want to initiate a recall until you're super sure it's necessary

00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:58.320
better let a couple more pop off first

00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:02.160
you wouldn't though i would and nasa has announced it's

00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:06.240
delaying its moon landing mission from 2024 to 2025

00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:10.560
not because of any technical reason but because blue origin the rocket company

00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:14.960
owned by jeff bezos sued nasa for giving a contract to spacex instead of

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.160
themselves uh and the ensuing litigation took up seven months of nasa's time

00:06:16.880 --> 00:06:21.759
thanks thanks thanks

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:26.960
i'm going to make a rocket company so i can advance humanity wait a second i'm going to stifle humanity instead

00:06:27.919 --> 00:06:34.160
while blue origin has lost the suit they did succeed in annoying everyone

00:06:32.080 --> 00:06:40.880
involved but any publicity is good publicity especially in space

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:45.280
