Sunday 6th November - Amazing AMD

Strangely, I don't recall the Codemasters games, but I do remember a brand called Mastertronic, who sold mostly garbage, but occasionally really good games for £1.99. The interesting thing was that these were sold not in Computer shops, but in Newsagents and Petrol Stations, making them accessible and affordable for kids. They were terrific value.

With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon Join us on Mewe RSS Link: https://techaddicts.libsyn.com/rss iTunes | Google Podcasts | Stitcher | Tunein | Spotify  Amazon | Pocket Casts | Castbox | PodHubUK Feedback and Contributions Steve Heinrich on FreeYourMusic (follow-up) Ted, you are correct about the music service transfer being just hooks between services. Essentially I think it pulls your playlists, songs etc. and adds them to your library on the new service using the new service's version of the songs (no MP3 stuff, just streaming in this case). It's basically matching songs across services and putting your playlists in the order you had them etc. Hardline on the hardware Rolls-Royce's First Electric Car, the Spectre, Revealed in All Its Mighty Glory Smart buoy 'hears' the sea to protect whales against ship collisions Samsung has reportedly started working on a smart ring The FCC is snuffing out Huawei and ZTE's American comeback hopes Motorola's rollable smartphone concept looks really interesting First Oppo Flip phone will have big battery, 50MP camera Leica re-releases the Leica M6 film camera for $5,295 with updated viewfinder, 'modern electronics' and more Samsung is at risk of getting its 8K TVs banned by the European Union Philips launches two-in-one monitor with LCD and E Ink panels The Name of the Game Netflix doubles down on gaming with 55 games in development Microsoft challenges Apple and Google as it builds its own mobile gaming store Flap your trap about an App Netflix Profile Transfer  File Explorer tabs are now available in Windows 11 version 22H2 YouTube abandons experiment limiting 4K playback to Premium users only Yet still puts prices up, YouTube Premium family plan price was £17.99/month now £19.99/month.

Sunday 16th October - Not So New Under The Surface

This week Gareth and Ted become embroiled in Microsoft's launch of new Surface devices, Razer's Edge, Lenovo Thinkphone, Acer Chromebook 516 GE and WhatsApp worries. With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon Join us on Mewe RSS Link: https://techaddicts.libsyn.com/rss iTunes | Google Podcasts | Stitcher | Tunein | Spotify  Amazon | Pocket Casts | Castbox | PodHubUK Feedback and Contributions Steve Heinrich on FreeYourMusic - Pricing Looking to switch (subscription) music streaming services? Make transferring your playlists and songs easier with FreeYourMusic. All works inside THEIR cloud, so no up/downloading by the user. A way to move their collection of playlists and songs from one music service to another. This saves a lot of time for those with a ton of songs collected in one service. I would say it's probably worth the premium cost considering the time saved and amount of music services offered. The premium plan also offers some nice syncing and backup features for those who move services often. Personally, I would just pay once to transfer somewhere else then cancel.  There’s also the (apparently) free Tune My Music according to Daniel Da Rocha Hardline on the hardware New Surface devices - Microsoft’s own Blog Microsoft’s Surface Studio 2 Plus ships with an RTX 3060 for $4,299 Microsoft launches a new Audio Dock and Teams presentation remote Google will open its first data centre in Japan in 2023 Apple to Mark iPhone 5c as Obsolete Next Month More than 4 in 10 PCs still can't upgrade to Windows 11 MediaTek announces Dimensity 1080 with bump in CPU and efficiency Government Set to Raise Value of UK Gigabit Broadband Vouchers Review: Dell’s MS700 wireless mouse has a twisted parlour trick A Lenovo ThinkPad smartphone could be on the way E-waste: Five billion phones to be thrown away in 2022 Apple gets another $19M fine in Brazil for not shipping chargers The Name of the Game Acer Unleashes its First Gaming Chromebook, the Acer Chromebook 516 GE The new Steam app officially launches on Android The Razer Edge is a powerful Android tablet designed for cloud gaming Flap your trap about an App Account handles are coming to all YouTube users (they are here https://www.youtube.com/@garethmyles) WhatsApp users on fake apps have had their data stolen, Meta says Google finally updates Gboard with Android tablet layout The Snipping Tool in Windows 11 is becoming a screen recorder Google rolls out support for passkeys for Android and Chrome Here's an early look at Pixel 7's Cough & Snore detection feature Netflix ad-supported plan launches next month, blocks downloads Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Spain, the U.K. and the U.S. Ads 15 or 30 seconds.

With Gareth Myles and Ted Salmon Join us on Mewe RSS Link: https://techaddicts.libsyn.com/rss iTunes | Google Podcasts | Stitcher | Tunein | Spotify  Amazon | Pocket Casts | Castbox | PodHubUK Feedback and Contributions Matt Jones More happy Nexus memories for me on the last show. I couldn’t get hold of a Nexus One, so settled for the Desire, which I still think is one of the best looking Android phones we’ve seen. I did jump on the Nexus train with the Nexus S though, which I picked up on impulse from CEX Great Yarmouth while on holiday! I loved that curved screen. As Gareth pointed out, the OEM’s UI’s were horribly intrusive and slowed the devices down, so the pure Android experience meant significantly more then, than it does now. Most phones I bought were rooted and running Cyanogenmod within a few weeks.

With Gareth Myles and Ted SalmonJoin us on Mewe RSS Link: https://techaddicts.libsyn.com/rss iTunes | Google Podcasts | Stitcher | Tunein | Spotify  Amazon | Pocket Casts | Castbox | PodHubUK   Feedback and Contributions Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 on Phones Show Chat Ian Barton on Cocopar 15.6" Display This isn't cheap at £189.99, but if you want a standalone display with decent specs it fits the bill. It is compatible with most devices. I have tested it on my Poco phone, a FireTV stick and my Chromebook. The display is 1080p, 15.6 inches and a 16:9 aspect ratio. If your device can output enough power you can power it via usb-C. However, a mains adapter is also provided. There are two USB-C ports and a mini-HDMI port. Also included are a USB-C, USB-C to USB-A adaptor and a USB-C to mini-HDMI cable. For the dinosaurs, there is a 3.5mm jack Also, there is a decent cover that doubles as a stand. Side by side with my Chromebook the display is comparable. You can use the settings menu to adjust most screen settings. Brightness is good for indoor usage, although not quite as good as the Chromebook. I can see it is going to be very useful to take on holiday where I can pair it to my phone or FireTV stick and avoid the annoyance of trying to get your devices to display on the TV in your room.
