Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Android… on Xbox??”.
Look, I know I promised you guys cake and then forgot it on Wednesday, but as you can see, the set assets didn’t even load in correctly, so we definitely can’t get cake.. No actually Linus is shooting a Tech Tips. Support thing on the TechLinked set. For some reason, so this is why we- I’m in the void., But on to the Tech, News. Microsoft seems intent on killing all hype for Windows 11, especially in people who are stoked to play around with Android app support at launch, because it won’t be there.
Just Like the cake., But XDA developers noticed something that might tide us over. The Microsoft Store listing for the Windows Subsystem for Android had Xbox One as one of its supported platforms.. This would make sense, since Xbox consoles are more or less running some version of Windows, but why would you want this To be able to run the mobile version of Fortnite or CoD on your TV Just so you could feel something. I’M feeling lonely here..
Now it’s possible, this listing was a mistake.. It seems the Xbox. References have been removed from the Subsystem’s listing page, but now it’s opening up my mind to the possibilities. I mean I could tweet from an Xbox.
[ Man ]. You can already do that.. I could read an ebook. Apple is taking a number of steps back on a few different fronts. For one they’re, delaying that controversial photo scanning system designed to detect photos of child abuse. After basically, the entire internet heard about it and was like “ Sorry you’re doing what now ?” Apple says: they’ve decided to take additional time over the coming months to collect input and make improvements before releasing these critically important child safety features that involve basically scanning every Photo on the majority of iPhones all the time.
Apple has also said it will follow the same rules. It makes third-party advertisers follow in iOS 15 and will ask users for permission before enabling personalized ads in its own services.. Finally, Apple is making a global change to the iOS App Store reader apps, which is what Apple calls apps like Netflix Spotify, and Kindle that have removed in-app signups. To avoid a 30 % cut will be allowed to link directly from the app to a website where users can sign up and pay. Apple made the change to get Japan to quit an antitrust investigation, which is always the reason you want these companies to do these. Things., It seems, like Apple, is slowly being forced to relinquish its iron grip on the App Store finger by finger, but will they eventually let go And how many fingers does a trillion dollar company have anyway, Could buy a lot of fingers with that. Trust me that Gets you a lot of fingers. And in other Apple news, the tech giant is looking to hire programmers experienced with the RISC-V architecture, which is sometimes thought of as an open source alternative to ARM, but wait.
Apple just released their ARM-based M1 processors last year.. Is it leg year already Leg day You know ARM … ( man groans ), He gets it. Apple’s hiring page indicates they want RISC-V programmers to work on various subsystems and all sorts of Apple products that currently most likely rely on ARM.
Cores. Apple may be trying to rely less on ARM in case NVIDIA’s. Acquisition of the company ever goes through, or they may be doing what they did to Intel getting their products ready to switch to a new architecture. Many years down the line., Whatever they’re doing it’s great, to see RISC-V getting more attention. Since we ran out of ARM-based puns real quick as you can tell.
It got boring. We’re ready to take a risk again.. Now it’s time for Quick Bits brought to you by CORSAIR iCUE, the software that lets you fully synchronize the RGB lighting on all your compatible CORSAIR products to create some cool effects like David made in the background here..
But it’s not all about fancy. Lighting. iCUE can also monitor your components’. Real-Time temperatures create automated fan curves to adjust speeds on the fly and set custom profiles that control all that differently.
Depending on how you’re feeling in that moment., Your PC can be an interactive work of art, just like you. Check out CORSAIR’s iCUE products today at the link, below., Quick Bits., It’s a it’s time for it’s time, for- It’s time for the Quick Bits. Was that bad Did I ruin something? Reddit has banned the r/NoNewNormal subreddit for breaking the platform’s anti-brigading rules and quarantined 54 other subreddits for breaking rule, one which bans harassment, bullying, incitement of violence or promoting hate based on identity.. The restrictions come after 450 subreddits joined an open letter asking Reddit to address COVID misinformation on the site.. However quarantining a subreddit still allows it to be viewed if users click past a warning. Page.
Reddit has resisted pressure to restrict its users’ speech. And there’s probably a lot to say about that. But this is a Quick Bit, so my hands are tied.. Eight U.S.
states have announced they’ll, be using Apple’s digital ID system to check state ID and driver’s licenses. Sometime in the future., Arizona, Georgia, Connecticut, Iowa, Kentucky Maryland Oklahoma and Utah have expressed interest in the system which some skeptics are worried will simply lead to further erosion of citizens’ privacy. But it will also mean you could take one more card out of your wallet which may help you to not sit with one butt cheek a little higher than the other, and that could save you some money on a chiropractor, so …, I’m for it.. Remember all those RTX 3090s that were bricked trying to play New World Well EVGA figured out that the problem was the soldering around the GPU’s MOSFET circuits..
It was badly done, leading all those poor, RTX 3090 owners to regret just for a moment, spending almost $ 2,000 on a fancy thingy to play video games. And for that bad soldering guy in the EVGA factory I salute you., Google Pixel 3s are dropping like flies Or at least that’s the impression you might get if you visited some technical support, forums. Reports of the phones suddenly becoming unresponsive, because they’ve, somehow booted into emergency, download or EDL mode are rampant.. Google hasn’t said that they’ll help Pixel 3 owners, yet many of whom are no longer covered by the phone’s warranty..
Conveniently the new Pixel 6 is launching very soon though. And a U.S. court has upheld an April 2020 ruling that decreed AI systems could not be credited as the inventor of a patent. Patent.
Inventors must be an individual and R2-D2 is clearly just a miserable little pile of nuts and bolts.. Interestingly, Australia ruled the opposite way, which is why they’re currently overrun with deadly robots.. What’S that They’re, not Ah soon enough., ( man, laughs ), And it’s about time. We ended this episode.
Come back on Monday for more Tech News, but not before you treat yourself to some delicious cake. You’ll have to get it yourself, though.. I don’t know the code to spawn it: in. (, gasps ).
What .
