1
00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:07,379
guys it's time to forget about all the crazy stuff going on out there and focus

2
00:00:04,259 --> 00:00:08,820
on what really matters okay

3
00:00:07,379 --> 00:00:13,139
the tech news feel it Apple may have changed course

4
00:00:11,340 --> 00:00:17,100
and added more ports to their latest MacBook Pro Models but there are still

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:21,840
companies out there with the courage to make a laptop with no ports at all a

6
00:00:20,460 --> 00:00:25,820
concept notebook has been making the rounds online designed by a company

7
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:30,599
called crab crowb I'm guessing the name comes from

8
00:00:28,199 --> 00:00:33,920
crabs which also have no ports they're almost completely smooth they have a

9
00:00:32,460 --> 00:00:39,000
cloaca maybe the crab X is incredibly thin at just

10
00:00:37,260 --> 00:00:43,200
seven millimeters in height presumably because all the circuitry for its

11
00:00:40,860 --> 00:00:47,040
non-existent ports has been removed and placed into its wireless charging brick

12
00:00:45,059 --> 00:00:52,340
which magnetically attaches to the back of the laptop's display and offers some

13
00:00:49,860 --> 00:00:57,899
USBC ports and SD card slot and more look we're all for minimalism but even I

14
00:00:55,860 --> 00:01:02,960
could admit this is taking it a bit too far being that smooth

15
00:01:00,539 --> 00:01:07,380
it's unnatural you need some crevices Gamer's Nexus has once again exposed

16
00:01:05,460 --> 00:01:11,100
some shady practices by a tech company with their latest video in which they

17
00:01:09,299 --> 00:01:16,799
detail their experience returning an unopened product to Newegg only to be

18
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:18,960
denied a refund due to customer caused

19
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:21,780
damage ah New Egg must have failed to mention all the little customers that

20
00:01:20,340 --> 00:01:25,920
come inside the Box you can't do anything about those bacteria

21
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:34,020
the product in question was a 500 motherboard mint in the box but Newegg

22
00:01:30,780 --> 00:01:35,159
said the CPU pins were bent Maybe by a

23
00:01:34,020 --> 00:01:38,820
ghost the gamer's Nexus investigation prompted

24
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,780
many customers to share their own negative experiences with Newegg returns

25
00:01:40,619 --> 00:01:47,040
and Newegg has apparently been calling Steve like a clingy X so hopefully this

26
00:01:45,420 --> 00:01:51,479
leads to some positive changes at the retailer I think we can all agree

27
00:01:49,259 --> 00:01:57,600
we don't want another NCIX and ensuing dumpster refugees and in nft

28
00:01:55,380 --> 00:02:01,920
news The Verge thinks they can just come out here and tell everybody that

29
00:01:59,579 --> 00:02:07,740
actually we're all gonna call them nests from now on

30
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:09,899
neft I mean on the plus side it's one

31
00:02:07,740 --> 00:02:14,400
syllable instead of three but on the other hand just who the [ __ ] does the

32
00:02:11,580 --> 00:02:19,140
verse think they are huh nefts I'm gonna say nefts there's too many consonants

33
00:02:16,980 --> 00:02:23,040
whether neft catches on or not The Fad doesn't seem to be going away anytime

34
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:27,360
soon even though EA did just walk back its earlier comments about incorporating

35
00:02:24,780 --> 00:02:31,620
nfts into their games the tokens seem to simultaneously be gaining Steam while

36
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:35,340
also suffering from negative publicity with recent reports about nfts being

37
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:38,760
used for money laundering and a confirmation from the formerly

38
00:02:36,599 --> 00:02:42,599
facebook-backed DM Association that they're selling off their assets

39
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:45,620
meanwhile the rest of us are neft asking what's neft

40
00:02:45,660 --> 00:02:51,660
you see their minting colors now what they're making colors nfts where the

41
00:02:50,700 --> 00:02:57,660
person thinks they're going to get royalties every time so the color you

42
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:59,640
can mint an nft of the color red yes

43
00:02:57,660 --> 00:03:03,840

tried everything else trust me this this is it this is what you get the New York

54
00:03:44,459 --> 00:03:51,120
Times has acquired the massively popular word guessing game Wordle for a sum of

55
00:03:48,780 --> 00:03:56,700
money somewhere in the low seven figures marking a real juicy Payday for the

56
00:03:53,760 --> 00:04:00,659
simple apps Creator Josh Wardle still hilarious but if you're concerned

57
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:05,519
that the free game will eventually be put behind a paywall good news the web

58
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:10,140
version can be saved as simply as any web page and will still update with a

59
00:04:07,500 --> 00:04:17,100
daily word for potentially years from now everybody wins right is it is

60
00:04:14,580 --> 00:04:21,239
everybody winning here not having some kind of dystopian takeaway seems weird I

61
00:04:19,019 --> 00:04:26,520
I don't know the newest beta for the default Android messages app translates

62
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,199
iMessage tapback reactions into Emoji

63
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:32,759
instead of displaying a duplicated message that says Jim loved at the start

64
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:36,960
making communication between the phone ecosystems feel more human and less like

65
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:41,639
an alternate universe where everyone only speaks in third person Riley really

66
00:04:39,479 --> 00:04:45,360
loved that European privacy Regulators from 28 countries led by the Belgian

67
00:04:43,740 --> 00:04:50,280
data protection authority have ruled that website's pervasive pop-ups asking

68
00:04:47,940 --> 00:04:55,440
for consent to collect user data are actually illegal under the eu's general

69
00:04:52,620 --> 00:04:58,860
data protection regulation or gdpr even though that regulation was the sole

70
00:04:57,540 --> 00:05:03,300
reason they were created in the first place ad tech industry group IAB Europe

71
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:08,040
which developed the practice has been issued a 283 thousand dollar fine and

72
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:12,900
the group is now considering legal action against the fine because it's

73
00:05:10,259 --> 00:05:16,080
been like four years what is it are we are we sure this find isn't just because

74
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:20,460
Boomer politicians realize what the pop-ups are for they're like what is it

75
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:25,020
hey wait a second the monitor refresh rate arms race has just intensified

76
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:30,539
Chinese screen manufacturer Boe has just announced a 1080p monitor that can hit

77
00:05:27,380 --> 00:05:31,740
500 Hertz it'll be a while before the

78
00:05:30,539 --> 00:05:35,639
tech rolls out in products from companies like ASUS or Gigabyte but just

79
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:40,860
knowing it's out there is nice for crypto haters maybe this is a different

80
00:05:37,620 --> 00:05:42,900
way to go to the moon and maybe the

81
00:05:40,860 --> 00:05:46,199
frames will win the games after all David

82
00:05:44,460 --> 00:05:49,380
are you competitive you don't play Camp you're just playing Castlevania all the

83
00:05:47,820 --> 00:05:54,060
time now all the time that doesn't that's not you don't need frames for

84
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:56,160
that and hey

85
00:05:54,060 --> 00:06:00,900
wait a second wasn't NVIDIA supposed to give more details about the GeForce RTX

86
00:05:58,139 --> 00:06:05,039
3090 TI by the end of January it's February 2nd and it's probably even

87
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:09,000
later than that if you're on the upside down part of the world from where we are

88
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:12,000
what gives Team Green I thought you were going to release it so everyone would

89
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:16,199
remember how upset they are at you for continually releasing new more expensive

90
00:06:14,220 --> 00:06:20,180
versions of gpus instead of just upping the stock of existing cards

91
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:24,900
now we're even more upset yeah the only way to get over this is to

92
00:06:23,220 --> 00:06:27,840
come back on Friday for more Tech News until then

93
00:06:26,639 --> 00:06:32,280
I guess you'll have to go back to thinking about non-tech stuff Godspeed
