00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,880
if there's one thing i love more than anything in the world

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,160
it's tech news and that's not literally true but what

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,920
is true is that i love you

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:18,080
james i know the battle between the epic game store

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,640
and steam for the hearts and minds

6
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:24,800
and wallets of pc gamers is heating up so let's check in after they announced a

7
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,480
bunch more exclusive games ceo tim sweeney says the epic game store will

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:33,040
eventually stop with the exclusivity deals they're just trying to disrupt the

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:37,360
industry a bit right now sweeney also made clear that the egc will not take

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:42,239
valve's hands off approach to content moderation applying quality standards

11
00:00:40,079 --> 00:00:47,440
that will block games that they deem as inappropriate as it stands the company

12
00:00:44,559 --> 00:00:51,360
says around 40 of their 85 million users don't also have steam installed they

13
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:56,000
just have epic game store and even if those are all young fortnite players

14
00:00:53,840 --> 00:01:00,800
it's undeniable that egc will have an impact on the industry that impact is

15
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:06,479
arguably why steam is changing their ui to look a bit more modern it's time for

16
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:09,680
pc gamers to choose a side steam

17
00:01:06,479 --> 00:01:09,680
or epic games

18
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:16,720
well you gotta be why not both is what he said i don't speak spanish fans of

19
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:20,799
nokia phones were excited when the brand was revived by another finnish company

20
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:25,040
hmd global but they probably weren't excited this week to learn that a number

21
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:30,400
of nokia 7 plus devices were suspected of sending data to a server in china

22
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:35,040
while hmd global is located in finland current nokia models are manufactured in

23
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:38,799
china at a foxconn factory hmd has issued a statement claiming that a

24
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:43,520
device activation client meant for a different country was mistakenly

25
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:47,840
included in a single batch of nokia 7 plus models and that's not convenient

26
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:52,320
exactly but and they say no personal information was compromised and huawei

27
00:01:50,479 --> 00:01:55,600
definitely wasn't involved we know that for sure nevertheless the finnish

28
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:59,920
government has opened an investigation into whether any data breaches occurred

29
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:04,799
and if they find anything hmd could be subject to hefty fines from the european

30
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:09,840
union who are sort of like the overzealous hall monitor of europe now

31
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:14,879
except hall monitors didn't find you but they did give you stern looks

32
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:18,640
and remember how a couple weeks ago mark zuckerberg wrote this giant post about

33
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,440
how facebook was going to be super privacy focused now

34
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:26,560
yeah well the news just came out that the company stored hundreds of millions of

35
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:30,879
user passwords in plain text files that were easily searchable by thousands of

36
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:35,040
facebook employees for years as far back as 2012. not the past riley oh yeah

37
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:38,879
you're right you're right i shouldn't there's no evidence yet that user

38
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,920
information was compromised as a result but still

39
00:02:40,239 --> 00:02:46,239
oh and also the company just admitted that they knew cambridge analytica was

40
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:49,680
improperly gathering data as early as september 2015 and the story didn't

41
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,360
really blow up in the public sphere until 2018.

42
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,120
i mean at least they were being private about that you know you gotta

43
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:01,200

54
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:46,959
NVIDIA is changing the way it releases drivers for its graphics cards

55
00:03:45,519 --> 00:03:51,200
when you update your driver there will now be two options a game ready driver

56
00:03:49,599 --> 00:03:55,760
with launch day support for the latest games and a creator ready driver which

57
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:59,840
ensures stability and quality for creative workflows using apps like the

58
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:04,319
adobe suite unreal engine and autodesk arnold

59
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:08,319
exactly but what if you're equal parts gamer and creator what if you're neither

60
00:04:06,959 --> 00:04:13,120
and you don't even know what a graphics card is the answer

61
00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:13,120
google stadium

62
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:18,720
macs don't get viruses except they do and since microsoft has

63
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:22,400
lots of experience with having their software get screwed up they're helping

64
00:04:20,479 --> 00:04:27,520
out their rival a bit they've ported Windows defender to mac as microsoft

65
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:30,880
defender advanced threat protection although i'm not sure what advanced

66
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:36,320
threats they're protecting against since max don't get viruses as i've said

67
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:42,240
maybe a scorned freelance artist spilling their latte on the macbook

68
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:47,840
sorry canadian mac users tesla is under scrutiny over its autopilot feature once

69
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:49,680
again as dash cam footage of a model x

70
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:53,759
swerving towards a barrier on the highway has been posted online but the

71
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,800
real issue is this is far from the first time this has happened and it comes

72
00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:00,960
after numerous software updates were pushed that seemingly fixed the problem

73
00:04:59,199 --> 00:05:04,080
until the dashcam footage came out it remains kind of weird that while other

74
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,080
companies are really trying to smooth out the kinks in self-driving technology

75
00:05:05,919 --> 00:05:12,080
before they release it tesla is kind of using its customers like brandon as

76
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:15,759
guinea pigs i'm not saying don't buy a tesla but maybe

77
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:21,759
don't use autopilot just yet i don't know i don't know what the solution is

78
00:05:19,039 --> 00:05:25,440
i drive a mitsubishi does it though following google's announcement of

79
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:30,479
stadia game streaming services are a hotter topic than ever and walmart wants

80
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,840
in on the party usgamer reports that the retail giant is exploring the idea of

81
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:38,400
launching their own service as part of their op gaming brand

82
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,759
yep which was a rousing success and i don't see why this should be any

83
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:44,639
different please go that's what gamers are saying to walmart

84
00:05:43,199 --> 00:05:49,039
just please no stop and mobile network testing company

85
00:05:47,039 --> 00:05:55,440
open signal tested the speeds of various mobile networks and found that at att's

86
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:58,160
5ge ran a little slower than verizon and

87
00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:03,360
t-mobile's 4g networks probably because it's not actually 5g

88
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:08,479
it's also 4g dang you know you know i just thought if we called it 5g you know

89
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:12,160
it might give us that boost we needed i guess life's a little more complicated

90
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:15,759
than you think huh hopes and dreams hopes and dreams dashed but the reasons

91
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,120
for ending this episode now aren't complicated we're just out of tech news

92
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:23,600
that's just the way life works but there will be more come monday so make sure

93
00:06:21,039 --> 00:06:27,440
you're subscribed like the video and give yourself a pat on the back

94
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:31,680
because you're worth it tell brenda i said that tell brandon not to use

95
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:31,680
autopilot
