you know david yes when i was a little boy
0:03
if we wanted tech news we had to run five miles in our bare feet to the next
0:08
town over so we could hear it from the blacksmith
0:11
you guys had a blacksmith we didn't the next town did after much
0:16
rumor mongering and leaks nintendo has finally revealed the cheaper version of
0:20
the switch it's called the nintendo switch light and has built-in controls
0:24
so no removable joy-cons but there is a d-pad instead of directional buttons
0:29
it's got a slightly smaller 5.5 inch screen instead of the 6.2 inch one on
0:33
the vanilla switch but with the same 720p resolution and slightly higher
0:38
battery life of up to 7 hours there's no kickstand infrared capability or hd
0:43
rumble but there is still gyro support it cannot be connected to a tv but you
0:48
can still connect wireless controllers including regular joy cons to play games
0:52
that require them like one two switch if you want to play that game for some
0:57
reason it'll be available in three colors for 200 us dollars on september
1:02
20th so this is how the 3ds dies
1:05
not with a bang but with a light switch
1:09
did you get what i like a light switch
1:12
it's a switch light but what switch is about it now
1:16
i don't know it's not a switch it's not a year that's a good point there's no
1:20
switching involved we were all still pretty confused about how google stadia
1:24
is going to work even after we got lots of new details from stadia connect a new
1:28
faq posted on the stadia website has cleared some things up while other
1:32
things remain confusing as ever the page says users will still have access to
1:37
games they've purchased on stadia even if the developer pulls support if you
1:41
cancel your stadia pro subscription your game saves will still be available if
1:45
you re-subscribe in the future and local multiplayer will be available with up to
1:50
four stadia controllers although it's unclear whether it will work with third
1:53
party controllers there's also a loophole spotted by rs technica that
1:58
might allow you to buy a founder's edition for 130 bucks then return it for
2:02
a refund after you've activated your stadia access code you'll lose access to
2:06
the stadia pro extras but it appears that this will allow you to get access
2:11
to stadia base three months before its public launch
2:15
now listen david i'm not saying you should do this okay
2:20
but it seems like something that you could do if
2:24
you were you know morally kind of in a gray area
2:29
told me all 50 shades of gray are we gonna get sued for this
2:33
speaking of google being sketchy you know all those recent stories about how
2:37
amazon employees listen to audio recordings of echo owners yeah
2:41
turns out google does that too belgian news outlet vrt nws was told by a person
2:47
working as a contractor for google that thousands of the company's employees
2:51
have access to a system containing recordings from google home devices
2:56
humans transcribe these recordings to help improve speech recognition with
2:59
google officially saying only 0.2 percent of all audio clips are
3:03
transcribed but that's not the creepy part many of these
3:08
audio clips which vrt actually heard were not meant to be picked up by the
3:12
google home people were just talking in the vicinity and the home started
3:16
recording arguments between spouses conversations containing personal
3:20
details and people in emergency situations even were all recorded and
3:24
were subsequently reviewed by humans vrt
3:27
identified some of these individuals based on the recordings and then showed
3:31
those people the audio of themselves but like really are we supposed to be
3:35
surprised like did we not we should have seen this coming yeah i threw my note
3:40
three months ago it kept showing up every week did you actually yeah i keep
3:43
showing up what's kept showing up google home
3:46
