WEBVTT

00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:04.640
wow i'm really feeling still pretty roasty after that roast what's that you

00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:08.800
want some tech news you're not cool enough for tech news boom roasted oh you

00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:11.920
like roast huh james yeah well you're probably like getting literally roasted

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:16.719
more like cause you're uh you're a pork chop boom roasted yeah i would have cut

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:16.719
that joke okay

00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:22.960
microsoft's new chromium-based version of the edge web browser has just started

00:00:21.119 --> 00:00:27.119
to show up for public consumption microsoft gave up on developing edge

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:30.720
completely in-house some time ago and now you can go pick up an early canary

00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:34.719
channel version of the browser from microsoft's website which the company

00:00:32.800 --> 00:00:39.040
says it will be updating just about every day although bing will once again

00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:43.120
be the default search engine this new edge will actually support chrome

00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:47.600
extensions and includes a dark mode for your late night browser needs it's

00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:51.600
unclear exactly when the more stable beta version will be released to the

00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:55.840
public but it can't come soon enough i mean people need a browser to download

00:00:53.440 --> 00:00:58.160
chrome with so boom roasted it's still happening

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:02.000
although samsung wasn't the first company to release a smartphone with an

00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:07.119
in-screen fingerprint reader the one inside its galaxy s10 has arguably been

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:13.119
the most hyped but despite that it's already been shown to have a fatal flaw

00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:15.119
slow yes that too one user on imgur used

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:20.560
the somewhat well-known trick of taking a photo of a fingerprint left on glass

00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:25.119
and reproduced it with a 3d printer the fake fingerprint was able to reliably

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:29.360
unlock his galaxy s10 over and over again a legitimate security concern

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:33.280
considering it was done with relatively cheap hardware in a matter of minutes

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:36.400
this issue is a big problem for samsung and other companies who are pushing

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:40.000
biometrics as a way to not have to fiddle around with pins or additional

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:43.840
security so if you can unlock your phone with just a fingerprint maybe be a

00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:47.840
little more wary the next time you're visiting a friend who keeps a 3d printer

00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:53.200
in their basement these guys are all a little creepy anyways and rare

00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:56.799
yeah just use a password if you're that interesting of a person

00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:00.560
also why do you have a 3d printer in the basement why hide it you know show it

00:01:58.399 --> 00:02:04.560
off put it in the attic yeah if you've jumped on the apex legends hype train it

00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:08.560
looks like the experience could soon be a little less frustrating recently a new

00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:12.480
feature briefly appeared in a patch that would penalize players for leaving a

00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:17.760
match before a specified amount of time passes the idea is that it's a rather

00:02:14.959 --> 00:02:21.520
unsporting not cool move nice one john to just bail out of a

00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:25.120
match because they dislike something a teammate did such as picking a character

00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.879
they don't like or a drop location they don't agree with doing this means the

00:02:27.200 --> 00:02:32.879
teammate squad now has to fight the match short-handed meaning it's a pretty

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:36.319
serious obstacle to an enjoyable gaming session although the feature in the

00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:39.519
patch was quickly pulled as it wasn't quite ready for prime time and it isn't

00:02:38.160 --> 00:02:44.000
clear if it will actually be rolled out at all it'll be nice to have a deterrent to the

00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:48.400
digital equivalent of flipping over the monopoly board which is very immature

00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:53.599
it's time for quick bits brought to you by the mass drop and sennheiser pc37x

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:58.879
gaming headset its angled drivers are from the same family as the well-known

00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:01.920
hd 598 and hd600 headphones so you know

00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:04.800
they got fantastic sound quality

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:08.560
yeah featuring an open-backed design and a noise-cancelling microphone it offers

00:03:06.720 --> 00:03:14.720
great stereo imaging and locational accuracy join the drop today at the link

00:03:10.720 --> 00:03:16.879
below time for your quick bits

00:03:14.720 --> 00:03:21.040
netflix's discontinuing support for apple airplay which previously allowed

00:03:19.040 --> 00:03:25.599
users to beam shows and movies from apple devices to a larger screen netflix

00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:30.560
says that they can't tell airplay 2 devices apart so they can't certify them

00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:34.480
and so they've had to just shut down support i mean netflix could have just

00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:38.480
saved everyone time here and just said apple left us out of their streaming

00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:42.879
service and we're upset microsoft is changing the default usb mode in Windows

00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:46.840
10 to quick removal lowering the chance that your data will get corrupted if you

00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:50.879
just yank your usb drive out of the port unceremoniously no but i love the eject

00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:54.640
ceremonies exactly oh you can still do it okay

00:03:53.840 --> 00:04:00.319
don't just listen all right an option for better performance remains but you'll

00:03:58.480 --> 00:04:04.879
have to enable it manually and there's a slightly higher risk of data loss if you

00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:11.360
don't eject your drive so you either eject all the time or don't eject at all

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:13.599
choose wisely eject facebook wants to

00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:17.680
build another massive underwater data pipe that would almost completely

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:21.440
surround the african continent the social giant wants to get more people in

00:04:19.440 --> 00:04:25.440
africa connected to its service as it remains a somewhat untapped market with

00:04:23.440 --> 00:04:31.440
limited infrastructure though i don't know that i would have gone with the

00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:31.440
incredibly on the nose name of simba

00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:41.040
u.s authorities are backing off their threats of withholding intelligence from

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:45.520
the german government if the country went with huawei for its 5g deployments

00:04:43.520 --> 00:04:51.440
apparently german security standards are so high that the us thinks unreliable

00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:53.280
companies would never hope to meet them

00:04:51.440 --> 00:04:58.160
sounds pretty german to me i'm german sort of and what if you could

00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:02.800
travel nearly 60 000 miles in just 300 bucks wouldn't that be great i'd go yeah

00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:06.800
i'd go so far one man from the netherlands did just that as he recently

00:05:04.960 --> 00:05:10.960
completed a three-year electric car drive from amsterdam to sydney

00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:17.680
so boats were obviously involved but he did spend just 300 on charging up his

00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:21.680
car rather than the nearly five grand it would have cost him in gasoline so now

00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:24.960
he was helped by volunteers so the trip was probably a little cheaper than it

00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:28.400
would have been for the average joe but it still beats paying out the nose to

00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:33.600
check a bag i'll say that much the more you learn about that story the

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:39.680
less impressive it is he used boats he had help oh it turns out he just flew i

00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:42.800
went on a really big road trip but but i

00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:44.080
drove an electric car yeah so follow me

00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:49.360
on twitter that's it for today guys come back on wednesday to embark on your own

00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:53.680
three-year tech journey that we cram into five minutes

00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:56.320
that's not how it works don't quote me on that
