man how did people live before tech news it seemed so crazy i
0:05
think they like hunted animals probably
0:10
sucks ever since the slow
0:13
painful death of the Windows phone back in 2017 microsoft has stayed away from
0:17
the mobile world congress better to suppress those nasty
0:21
nasty memories but now the company has sent out invitations to its press
0:25
conference at the trade show in february that's on the 24th where we may get a
0:29
look at the second generation hololens one of the events hosts will be
0:32
technical fellow alex kipman who is best known as the leader of microsoft's mixed
0:36
reality efforts and one of the brains behind hololens i guess anyone who wears
0:41
it their brain is behind hololens tag you want to get stupid about it
0:46
a new hololens would make sense the first one came out way back in 2015 and
0:50
we've seen more competitors emerge in the meantime like magic leap and
0:54
real they need an apostrophe they want me to say it properly stock of the
0:58
original hololens units has been unavailable for more than a month now
1:02
which lends even more credence to the idea that we will in fact see a hololens
1:07
2 at mwc or maybe we'll see a foldable
1:11
surface device microsoft is reportedly working on adapting Windows 10 to better
1:15
suit the new class of devices or maybe a portable xbox james settle down
1:22
come on your pills the epic game store has stirred a bit of
1:27
controversy concerning its policy on influencers hey
1:32
me medu sergey gaoyankin the store's
1:35
director of publishing strategy was heard on a russian language podcast
1:39
discussing the store's policy on developers paying influencers to market
1:43
their games he allegedly said indie devs would pay a 20 cut for influencer
1:48
marketing while bigger studios would only pay a 5 cut he later clarified his
1:52
comments on twitter saying the backlash was due to a mistranslation duh right
1:58
developers won't be required to spend a certain amount of money on influencer
2:01
marketing but they will be able to in a way that will help both smaller
2:05
developers and smaller influencers like twitch streamers by giving them a five
2:09
percent cut if a viewer makes a purchase through their link the program called
2:14
supporter creator is designed to help smaller devs get the same access to
2:18
creators that only big publishers can afford and it was actually used to get
2:22
fortnite to be as popular as it is today so maybe that information is enough to let
2:27
you judge whether you're for or against the program or whether you don't care
2:32
and we should just move on to the next story
2:36
a california judge has ruled that the police cannot force people to unlock
2:40
their phones using biometric options like a fingerprint or face or eye scans
2:45
even with a warrant previously unlocking
2:48
phones using passcodes was protected but this ruling extends protection beyond
2:54
two biometrics magistrate judge candice westmore said that government requests
2:58
to unlock devices run a foul of the fourth and fifth amendments which
3:02
protect against unreasonable searches and self-incrimination respectively
3:06
supporters of the ruling celebrated as an attempt to bring the law up to speed
3:10
with technology but critics say that it could prevent officials from finding
3:14
truly incriminating evidence like what if someone has their system font set to
3:18
comic sans but we can't see it and they're doing unironically you can't
3:22
just let a monster like that roam free oh god
3:28

3:47
sounding boost community feedback led mass shop and sennheiser to add a
3:51

below google pixel fans been excited by leaks of the pixel 3 lite and pixel 3
4:13
light xl but the leaked specs might dampen spirits a bit the leak indicates
4:19
the pixel 3 light runs a snapdragon 710
4:22
processor a lower powered model than the snapdragon 845 in the regular pixel 3

4:37
that the pixel 3 lights have
