00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:07,040
it's november 12th a federal holiday in the u.s and canada but the tech news

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:10,800
must go on tech news it's got no respect for the troops i do

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:15,040
but i serve the tech news i have no choice it's horrible but what

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:20,000
would be truly horrible is if this leak about a new valve vr headset turned out

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,840
to not be true yes photos were shared to

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,519
imger over the weekend of a prototype head mounted display apparently being

7
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:30,480
worked on at valve the anonymous source of the photos told upload vr that it

8
00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:34,960
will have a 135 degree field of view and vive pro resolution similar to the htc

9
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:39,360
vive this prototype has integrated headphones and steamvr infrared tracking

10
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,879
points but it also has two cameras on the lower front side this is the first

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:48,000
we've seen of a headset being worked on at valve although they've been pretty upfront about the development of their

12
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:51,840
upcoming knuckles controllers for vr the valve rumor mill has been sent into

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:56,840
overdrive with speculation that this vr headset and the controllers will launch

14
00:00:53,520 --> 00:01:00,719
with a new half-life game designed for

15
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:02,800
vr no actually sadly it might apparently

16
00:01:00,719 --> 00:01:07,520
be a prequel not the half-life 3 we're all waiting for or the one i'm waiting

17
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:09,840
for at least i'm sure many of you have given up hope

18
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:14,640
well let this leak be the spark that ignites

19
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:18,799
the fire that will burn the first order down

20
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:22,320
preach it riley thank you speaking of burning things down apple is setting

21
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:26,320
fire to third-party attempts at repairing its products as the company

22
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:31,360
has confirmed that the security focused t2 chip present in its new max prevents

23
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:36,240
the machines from booting if it detects hardware from an unauthorized source

24
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:39,920
this tactic effectively locks out third party repairs if they don't use apple

25
00:01:37,759 --> 00:01:44,000
certified components but apple has taken more steps to lock users into their

26
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:47,759
repair ecosystem a new deal with amazon won't just see the online marketplace

27
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:52,320
carry current gen flagships now previously amazon was limited to past

28
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:55,920
gen iphones and macbooks but amazon is also telling independent product

29
00:01:53,759 --> 00:02:00,159
refurbishers that only authorized resellers will be able to sell apple

30
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,200
products so it looks like rather than responding to user criticism by being a

31
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:09,840
little more lacks with its repair policies apple has doubled down and

32
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,840
closed off their ecosystem even further

33
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,560
saturday first off keyboard and mouse support is coming to 14 titles on the

34
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:31,040
console this wednesday including fortnite warframe and warhammer

35
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:35,040
vermintide 2. microsoft pledged to make the microsoft store better tailored

36
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,840
towards gamers so you're going to delete it then i guess

37
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:45,920
there's a bunch of other game news mostly about existing games coming to xbox or xbox game pass but the really

38
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:51,040
interesting bit of news was microsoft's acquisition of rpg developers obsidian

39
00:02:48,239 --> 00:02:55,120
entertainment and in exile entertainment could microsoft compete with sony's

40
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,840
excellent list of exclusives well i mean

41
00:02:56,239 --> 00:03:04,440
given the company's history with studios that it acquires probably

42
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,440
probably not they still got halo though

43
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:11,599
it's time for quick bits brought to you today by private internet access pia is

44
00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:15,360
a vpn that lets you dial in the exact level of privacy protection you need

45
00:03:13,519 --> 00:03:19,280
with support for a variety of protocols and types of encryption there are pia

46
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:24,000
apps for Windows macOS Android Linux and google chrome with dns and ipv6 leak

47
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:28,480
protection and an internet kill switch that will block all traffic if the vpn

48
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:32,000
becomes disconnected protect yourself and those you love

49
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:36,000
check out pia at the link below now because i just bashed apple in the

50
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,120
interest of fairness i now have to say that they did admit that the iphone 10

51
00:03:37,599 --> 00:03:43,440
is having touch screen issues and the 13-inch macbook pro is having data loss

52
00:03:41,519 --> 00:03:47,920
issues and both devices can be repaired for free at an apple retail location or

53
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:50,959
an apple authorized service provider and nowhere else

54
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:55,120
new information has come to light about samsung's foldable phone that it half

55
00:03:52,959 --> 00:04:01,439
unveiled last week apparently it's known as the galaxy f for foldable and will

56
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:03,680
retail for around 1 770 us dollars when

57
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:07,360
it launches in march but which frankly is not surprising it's a new technology

58
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:12,480
and a flashy one at that but if you want to spend more for a different folding

59
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,720
phone you can buy samsung's w2019 a flip

60
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:19,759
phone with the top end snapdragon 845 inside and two 4.2 inch amoled screens

61
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:24,240
or you could get a oneplus 6t if you're a normal human the fallout 76

62
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:28,080
beta is over and if after playing you've decided the game isn't for you you might

63
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:31,520
want to uninstall well you can't do it through the games uninstaller because it

64
00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:34,720
doesn't work it's not a huge issue you can just install it the normal way just

65
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:39,759
another problem with the game we thought we'd mention since it's basically been

66
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:44,160
a crap show so far also the game's day one patch when it does launch will be

67
00:04:41,199 --> 00:04:47,600
bigger than the game itself so someone please help bethesda with this

68
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:53,120
stuff they're having a tough time the dubai police force is now training using

69
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:55,280
hoverbikes aka human-sized drones this

70
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:58,639
is super cool but also could they not put some propeller guards on that thing

71
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:02,000
kudos to dubai for doing things with their exorbitant amounts of money so

72
00:05:00,479 --> 00:05:05,520
that the rest of us don't have to and this isn't tech news but what the heck a

73
00:05:03,919 --> 00:05:08,840
trailer has come out for the first live-action pokemon movie and it's

74
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:14,160
detective pikachu with ryan reynolds as the title

75
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:17,759
character and kind of creepy realistic cgi pokemon is this real life

76
00:05:17,039 --> 00:05:22,000
no it's a movie but is this real life

77
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:27,360
still no youtube video try again no i won't

78
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:31,120
because this episode is over thanks for watching kids hope you had a nice stat

79
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:34,080
holiday and come on back on wednesday because you know we'll have more tech

80
00:05:33,039 --> 00:05:39,800
news i mean you don't know but

81
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,800
it's a reasonable assumption
