Postponed to Monday 14th of March 5 pm CET

We are back with another TECHCAST Livestream this Sunday at 4 pm CET kicking off year two of the show. A lot has happened since the February 20th Livestream and we have exciting topics to talk about:

• Brand controversies
  • NewEgg
  • Artisan Builds
• Bungie prohibits use of Destiny 2 on Steam Deck
• Universal Standard for Chiplets
• Massive hacking attacks on NVIDIA and Samsung
• AMD completes acquisition of Xilinx
• Apple introduces M1 Ultra
• Linux security vulnarabilty “Derty Pipe”
• Windows on Steam Deck
• Microsoft Games officially supported on Steam Deck
• Gaming community for Ukraine
• EU bans non-replaceable batteries in Electronics

Since there are a lot of news stories breaking at the moment, that list might change till the livestream, but I wanted to get the notice out early this time.

If you want to join in Live head over to YouTube or Twtich since this is simulcasted to both platforms. In case you miss the live session you can watch the VOD on YouTube at your leasure.

The edited version will be availible on Odysee later and of course at 8:30 pm CET on Sunday on your favorite podcasting platforms thanks to the Syndication via Spreaker.

In case you want to suggest additional topics hit me up either on Twitter or my Discord.
