iOS 8 & OS X Yosemite! Ask Me #019

2014-06-07
what should you turn up for hey guys this is Austin what are your thoughts on iOS 8 and OS 10 Yosemite so I watch WWDC like I'm sure a lot of you guys did and I'm actually pretty impressed so iOS 8 I think is a solid upgrade so nothing that's huge revolutionary but a lot of little things that really do seem to be focused more on the power user side so things like being able to replace the keyboard something that you've been able to do on Android for a long time but it's cool they kind of bring that kind of stuff over to iOS Simpson goes for things like widgets that's not a huge deal but it's definitely kind of a nice little addition and lots of smaller things that overall kind of add up to be a much better experience on video somebody's side I think it's an even bigger upgrade so OS 10 is been around for quite a while and while there's definitely been some upgrades the look has actually not changed that much especially when you compare to something like Windows XP to Windows 8 it's big difference so I think one of the big things that I'm excited about in Yosemite is the fact that it's going to work better with iPhones no no not everyone uses iPhones but the fact that if you do it makes it a lot simpler I mean you can take phone calls on your Mac you can reply to texts you can start like writing an email on your phone and bring it over to Mac and vice versa I think that is an awesome feature and I would totally love of Microsoft kind of borrowed it for Windows 9 how do you deal with the hordes of fangirls you encounter on the streets every day well I mean it's it's it's dangerous for one because there's just so many of them just everywhere just you know so I like to stay inside and I don't actually like to go near them so you know I know they're everywhere but I've never seen him because I want to stay inside and stay safe because hordes are dangerous you know I'm like zombies like zombie horse right like those are things you want to stay away from so fangirl hordes same thing they're they're not zombies but they're they're close so I stay inside all the time how do you feel about the direction Microsoft is taking with the Xbox one so I talked a little bit about this last week with Microsoft removing the Kinect from the Xbox one bundle which will save you $100 if you don't want Kinect and then they recently allows you to use the Xbox one controller on a PC which actually did a video on if you guys want check out and that they're now also going to be freeing up a little bit more of the GPU resources so previously around 10% of the GPU of the Xbox one was dedicated to connect you know with audio tracking in the video and all that kind of stuff but now that the Xbox one Kinect isn't going to be mandatory that's going to be freed up for games so you might see some things like maybe a little bit higher resolutions or better anti-aliasing just a little bit more horsepower available to the Xbox one so I'm happy with all of these choices I think that Microsoft is really kind of making a good decision as my phone goes off but I'm gonna keep talking I think it's a good overall thing for Microsoft to kind of improve the Xbox one across the board can we expect GTA 5 for next gen this e3 I don't like to make predictions but I would hope that we will I mean GTA 5 has been one of the most successful video games of all time and that's only on the Xbox 360 and ps3 so you can imagine how well it'll sell on ps4 and Xbox one and PC so yes I very very much hope that we will see grand theft auto 5 next week at e3 are you Linus's long-lost relative I don't think so what a MacBook Air be good for like video editing definitely it's a surprisingly powerful little laptop so I actually use a MacBook Air 11 inch myself when I travel so it's really great for when I go to like trade shows like CES and III so I can carry it around in my bag all day long really doesn't weigh all that much yeah it has plenty of power to handle kind of basic simple editing like I do at events so it's not gonna be able to handle giant complex After Effects projects but for doing the kind of videos that I usually do is more than good enough is the Xbox 360 slim worth buying now with the Xbox one released absolutely so the Xbox 360 if you've never had one is a great console with years and years and years of awesome games so if you ever play games like Mirror's Edge and fallout 3 then the 360 is a great way to get into those games and on top of that a lot of the fantastic games for the console are really cheap so you can go and spend just a little bit of money and get a ton of awesome games to keep you occupied for a very long time when did you first know you love to tech it would probably be with the arcades so when I was younger and I've know I've told this story before but I used to love going to the arcade especially when I first got into school like kindergarten and first grade and that kind of stuff I loved going to the arcade playing like Hydro Thunder and pac-man and cruise the USA that was just absolutely like my favorite thing to do so my dad finally got tired of taking me down there so he bought me Aboriginal PlayStation one and as soon as I got that I was totally hooked I just loved gaming I've loved technology just this magical thing that's just awesome and I absolutely love it if you guys have any more questions feel free to hit
