WEBVTT

00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:06.319
come here got something for you what is it

00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:13.840
it's some tech news microsoft has announced xbox game pass

00:00:11.120 --> 00:00:18.000
for pc like we need a pass to game we could already do that

00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:21.600
microsoft this is america i expected you to correct me do you

00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:24.880
think we're in america right now it's

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:29.679
rather than being a continuation of the same program for xbox consoles the pc

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:34.079
version will be its own thing allowing pc gamers to pay a subscription for

00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:39.360
access to over a hundred curated games from over 75 publishers like bethesda

00:00:37.120 --> 00:00:45.760
deep silver devolver digital sega and of course xbox game studios now these are

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:47.280
pc games not xbox games per se

00:00:45.760 --> 00:00:50.800
although those things might be becoming more and more the same thing because

00:00:49.360 --> 00:00:55.039
microsoft also announced they'll be bringing more of their own games to

00:00:52.480 --> 00:01:00.239
steam and other pc game stores rather than keeping them confined to the

00:00:56.480 --> 00:01:01.760
Windows store as universal Windows apps

00:01:00.239 --> 00:01:06.080
some analysts are saying this means microsoft is largely giving up on their

00:01:03.440 --> 00:01:13.439
dream of having uwp be the future of apps well looks like uwp was a big

00:01:10.479 --> 00:01:15.840
whoopsie it's time for more news about whoa

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:23.759
it's my way or the huawei don't you forget it buster the chinese

00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:28.560
tech giant has reportedly been accepted back into the sd association the wi-fi

00:01:26.720 --> 00:01:33.520
alliance and the bluetooth special interest group according to announcement

00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:38.079
by the company huawei's mate 20 pro is also back on the list of devices

00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:41.280
eligible for the Android q beta program although it's unclear whether this is a

00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:47.119
permanent thing or just a result of the u.s ban being suspended for 90 days

00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:51.119
but the story for huawei continues to get worse even as it gets better

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:55.040
california-based synopsis maker of nearly ubiquitous tools for designing

00:01:52.960 --> 00:01:58.399
chips has stopped providing software updates to huawei which is going to hurt

00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:03.600
their ability to make their own processors huawei has also lost a bid to

00:02:01.119 --> 00:02:09.440
nokia and ericsson to provide 5g network equipment in japan now china is busy

00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:13.200
planning how to respond to this whole scandal and has reportedly begun

00:02:11.200 --> 00:02:17.920
assembling a list of foreign companies that it deems unreliable entities who

00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:23.360
would supposedly be restricted from doing business with chinese companies

00:02:20.160 --> 00:02:25.360
mirroring america's entity list i know

00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:28.480
you are but what am i yeah what you want to list entities we can list entities if

00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:35.840
that's what you're doing you want to list those entities to my face i can list entities anytime man bring it and

00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:39.519
amazon might replace sprint as one of the big four american telecom companies

00:02:38.480 --> 00:02:44.640
if if some inside information can be

00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:48.959
trusted so some industry sources told reuters that amazon is considering

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:53.920
buying boost mobile from t-mobile and sprint who would be obligated to sell

00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:58.160
boost as part of their merger deal which may or may not be happening so you can

00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:02.159
see why this is also speculative but if the t-mobile and sprint merger goes

00:03:00.239 --> 00:03:07.360
through then amazon could kind of take boost mobile's network to build out its

00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:11.920
own amazonian cell service and then you could probably order something on amazon

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:16.720
prime by texting so that would be cool or they could bring back the fire phone

00:03:14.720 --> 00:03:20.959
now it's time for quick bits brought to you by private internet access pih

00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:25.519
supports a variety of vpn protocols and types of encryption and authentication

00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:29.120
allowing you to dial in the exact level of privacy protection that you need

00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:33.200
they've got apps for Windows macOS Android iOS Linux and google chrome with

00:03:31.519 --> 00:03:38.560
support for several other platforms coming soon i didn't even know there are more platforms than that you can connect

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:44.080
up to five devices at the same time and other features include dns leak

00:03:40.640 --> 00:03:45.840
protection ipv6 leak protection and an

00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:50.000
internet kill switch which will block all traffic if the vpn becomes

00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:53.330
disconnected unexpectedly check it out today at the link in the video

00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:58.720
description quick bits remember a couple weeks ago when

00:03:56.799 --> 00:04:03.519
microsoft made the unusual move of issuing an update for Windows xp and

00:04:00.799 --> 00:04:06.640
server 2003 in 2008 in order to patch a vulnerability that could lead to a

00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:11.439
computer virus epidemic as bad as the wannacry flaw yeah yeah well

00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:17.440
apparently one million people didn't think that was very important and now microsoft is pleading with users to

00:04:14.640 --> 00:04:21.040
patch their freaking pcs i mean running xp is bad enough but not

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:26.560
patching these people are definitely gluttons for punishment like they're just sitting there being like yes

00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:30.639
infect me leap motion the company that developed

00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:35.600
various hand tracking devices for vr and desktop pcs has reportedly been acquired

00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:40.639
by ultra haptics a company that works on similar tech the purchase is interesting

00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:45.520
because apple reportedly approached leap motion twice with offers to buy them but

00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:50.240
they said no the founders apparently even called apple the devil a source has

00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:54.000
told Android police that samsung will be removing the headphone jack from the

00:04:51.919 --> 00:04:58.479
upcoming galaxy note 10. despite its status as one of the last

00:04:56.400 --> 00:05:02.400
smartphone makers to support the old universal standard

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.759
yeah the source also said the phone will have no physical buttons but that part

00:05:03.919 --> 00:05:09.520
seems to be less reliable but the good news is that motorola

00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:13.440
actually reinstated the headphone jack in the now officially unveiled moto z4

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:18.080
which will also be compatible with the z3's 5g moto mod did you do that tweet

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:22.960
did you do that tweet about calling them the chosen one who uh you know samsung

00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:27.039
took the headphone jack out and you made the gif it's like oh you were the chosen

00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:32.000
one no oh well that was a good tweet speaking of 5g the uk is getting a taste

00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:35.840
of it thanks to ee which activated the kingdom's first 5g network in london

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:40.000
edinburgh cardiff belfast birmingham and

00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:44.400
manchester meanwhile sprint launched 5g in atlanta

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:47.759
dallas houston and kansas city it's happening

00:05:45.840 --> 00:05:50.720
it's a 5g it's it's got yeah

00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:55.039
get it high five high 5g

00:05:53.120 --> 00:06:00.880
and after demolishing human players in chess go and dota 2 google's deepmind ai

00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:04.000
team have turned their sights onto first person shooters that's a pun and i

00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:09.759
didn't even get it when i wrote that the team's latest ai called ftw

00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:14.639
taught itself to play quake 3 arena and in tournaments with human players it

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:19.440
routinely beat experts at the game a team of humans typically captured 16

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:24.000
fewer flags and capture the flag games than the bots that's a lot of flags wow

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:27.680
the only time humans won was when they were teamed with the bot and even then

00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:31.919
they only won five percent of their matches

00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:35.759
i think we're okay until an ai beats shroud and apex i think that's the point

00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:40.319
at which we know we can't have nice things we're dead yeah it's over

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:45.680
you know what is dead your soul oh jeez

00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:47.280
