1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,699
The lead story for Monday,

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,139
June 16.

3
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:06,259
Annie Wojcicki,

4
00:00:06,719 --> 00:00:08,980
founder of twenty three and Me, has successfully

5
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,339
repurchased a genetic testing firm out of bankruptcy

6
00:00:12,559 --> 00:00:13,539
through her nonprofit

7
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:14,580
ITAM

8
00:00:15,244 --> 00:00:17,244
for $305,000,000,

9
00:00:17,244 --> 00:00:20,385
surpassing a prior winning bid from Regeneron.

10
00:00:21,164 --> 00:00:23,744
The deal excludes the company's liabilities,

11
00:00:24,045 --> 00:00:27,265
may easy ease public concerns over genetic data,

12
00:00:28,524 --> 00:00:32,079
and gives her continued leadership. The acquisition still

13
00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:34,960
requires court approval while lawsuits related to a

14
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,100
2023

15
00:00:36,239 --> 00:00:37,939
data breach remain unresolved.

16
00:00:38,559 --> 00:00:41,539
The company shares a surge on recovery hopes.

17
00:00:41,759 --> 00:00:45,685
I wanna welcome you to episode 1,867.

18
00:00:45,685 --> 00:00:50,484
I'm your I'm your excuse me. 1,827.

19
00:00:50,484 --> 00:00:52,585
Jump 40, 40 episodes.

20
00:00:53,284 --> 00:00:53,765
But,

21
00:00:54,244 --> 00:00:57,225
I know many, many, many folks were worried

22
00:00:58,085 --> 00:00:59,539
about this very

23
00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:01,379
specific acquisition.

24
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,600
A lot of people worried that it was

25
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,060
gonna get bought by

26
00:01:05,359 --> 00:01:08,099
a firm that, would take all the data

27
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:09,040
and,

28
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,920
and have, basically, all of your DNA for

29
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,859
any of you that submitted to,

30
00:01:14,454 --> 00:01:16,075
twenty three and Me. Now

31
00:01:17,334 --> 00:01:18,534
I have never,

32
00:01:19,415 --> 00:01:21,114
give my DNA to

33
00:01:21,894 --> 00:01:22,394
anyone.

34
00:01:22,775 --> 00:01:23,275
Ancestry,

35
00:01:23,734 --> 00:01:26,375
twenty three and Me. I've had family members

36
00:01:26,375 --> 00:01:28,930
do that. So, you know, it's basically just

37
00:01:28,930 --> 00:01:29,590
as good

38
00:01:29,969 --> 00:01:31,509
as me having done that,

39
00:01:32,290 --> 00:01:33,810
because, you know, I'm just,

40
00:01:34,209 --> 00:01:36,129
I guess, what is it? A not a

41
00:01:36,129 --> 00:01:39,109
chromosome, but, you know, a few DNA markers,

42
00:01:40,769 --> 00:01:43,489
off from other from every other family members.

43
00:01:43,489 --> 00:01:45,284
It's not a it's not one of those

44
00:01:45,745 --> 00:01:48,145
situations that really has me concerned that much

45
00:01:48,145 --> 00:01:48,645
because

46
00:01:49,584 --> 00:01:51,825
the government's had my DNA for many years

47
00:01:51,825 --> 00:01:53,844
because of my my time in the navy.

48
00:01:54,784 --> 00:01:55,284
So,

49
00:01:55,745 --> 00:01:57,665
you know, if you're gonna be tied to

50
00:01:57,665 --> 00:01:58,980
any DNA related

51
00:02:00,260 --> 00:02:02,840
crimes, well, I'm definitely gonna be found. So

52
00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:05,079
it's not because of

53
00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:08,200
that. I just don't like the idea.

54
00:02:09,060 --> 00:02:11,139
Even the government, I wasn't so happy with

55
00:02:11,139 --> 00:02:12,680
having access to,

56
00:02:13,379 --> 00:02:14,120
my DNA.

57
00:02:15,614 --> 00:02:18,514
But, this nonprofit public benefit company

58
00:02:19,534 --> 00:02:21,454
won the auction with 305,000,000.

59
00:02:21,454 --> 00:02:22,354
Now if you remember,

60
00:02:23,854 --> 00:02:25,715
they were prevented from bidding

61
00:02:26,014 --> 00:02:26,514
before,

62
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:28,980
and there was a lawsuit that was held

63
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:29,939
that,

64
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,000
essentially, the the court said, hey. You don't

65
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,780
have the money to to pay for this.

66
00:02:36,719 --> 00:02:37,120
And,

67
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,819
they came they basically

68
00:02:39,444 --> 00:02:41,605
said later had came backing from a Fortune

69
00:02:41,605 --> 00:02:42,665
500 company

70
00:02:44,324 --> 00:02:46,004
with a current market cap of more than

71
00:02:46,004 --> 00:02:46,805
100,000,000,000

72
00:02:46,805 --> 00:02:48,405
and $17,000,000,000

73
00:02:48,405 --> 00:02:49,784
in cash on hand.

74
00:02:50,485 --> 00:02:53,444
So that is no small investment fund. So

75
00:02:53,444 --> 00:02:54,919
she's backed by someone.

76
00:02:56,580 --> 00:02:59,060
Now Regeneron had operate to see the best

77
00:02:59,060 --> 00:02:59,719
and final

78
00:03:00,180 --> 00:03:02,360
and make a higher bid, but it declined.

79
00:03:03,060 --> 00:03:04,280
They're set to serve

80
00:03:04,979 --> 00:03:06,659
set to receive a $10,000,000

81
00:03:06,659 --> 00:03:09,215
termination fee according to court filings.

82
00:03:09,915 --> 00:03:10,415
So

83
00:03:10,955 --> 00:03:12,895
they won 10,000,000 just because

84
00:03:13,194 --> 00:03:14,254
of the lawsuit.

85
00:03:15,275 --> 00:03:16,955
So they, you know, they came on ahead

86
00:03:16,955 --> 00:03:19,275
for really doing nothing more than having some

87
00:03:19,275 --> 00:03:20,490
lawyers and some bids.

88
00:03:21,450 --> 00:03:22,349
So I'm sure

89
00:03:22,969 --> 00:03:25,550
that acquisition was gonna cost some money regardless.

90
00:03:25,930 --> 00:03:27,710
So, anyway, 10,000,000.

91
00:03:29,610 --> 00:03:31,450
So, an expert hired by the court to

92
00:03:31,450 --> 00:03:33,849
review the data privacy concerns over sale of

93
00:03:33,849 --> 00:03:36,125
twenty three and me had submitted a report

94
00:03:36,125 --> 00:03:37,585
on Wednesday that noted

95
00:03:38,205 --> 00:03:39,425
that the new founder,

96
00:03:39,965 --> 00:03:41,905
of course, who had been the chief executive

97
00:03:42,044 --> 00:03:43,264
when the breach occurred.

98
00:03:45,165 --> 00:03:46,224
But, you know, oftentimes,

99
00:03:46,604 --> 00:03:49,025
the boss isn't always in charge.

100
00:03:49,819 --> 00:03:50,959
It is the

101
00:03:52,539 --> 00:03:53,680
it's the company

102
00:03:54,139 --> 00:03:57,120
and the IT folks and everything else. Now

103
00:03:57,579 --> 00:03:58,459
we know that,

104
00:03:58,780 --> 00:04:01,099
Wojcicki was and if I pronounce her last

105
00:04:01,099 --> 00:04:02,879
name incorrectly, I apologize.

106
00:04:03,435 --> 00:04:06,015
We know that she was, originally married to

107
00:04:06,155 --> 00:04:08,175
a Google cofounder, Sergey Brin.

108
00:04:08,795 --> 00:04:10,235
And, of course, twenty three and Me went

109
00:04:10,235 --> 00:04:11,594
public in 2021

110
00:04:11,594 --> 00:04:12,974
through a merger with a,

111
00:04:13,675 --> 00:04:15,990
through a merger with a blank check vehicle

112
00:04:16,149 --> 00:04:18,550
sponsored by Richard Branson. So friends and friends

113
00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:20,089
and friends, rich of the rich.

114
00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:21,370
So,

115
00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:25,430
we will see where this goes. Now they

116
00:04:25,430 --> 00:04:28,310
had bid, bid 40¢ a share to acquire

117
00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:28,970
the company.

118
00:04:29,805 --> 00:04:32,524
So those of you that are stockholders in

119
00:04:32,524 --> 00:04:33,024
this,

120
00:04:34,845 --> 00:04:35,664
there's the,

121
00:04:36,044 --> 00:04:36,785
the the

122
00:04:37,164 --> 00:04:38,464
the stock over the counters,

123
00:04:38,925 --> 00:04:41,264
raised to $5.49.

124
00:04:42,044 --> 00:04:44,125
Believe that the company has staged recovery. Now

125
00:04:44,125 --> 00:04:46,460
if they if the stock stays up

126
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,180
over the counter above $5.49,

127
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,500
they have a good chance of, being

128
00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:52,379
relisted

129
00:04:53,319 --> 00:04:53,819
and,

130
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,699
to be a true, true SEC,

131
00:04:57,879 --> 00:05:00,495
basic, a stock exchange company. So time will

132
00:05:00,495 --> 00:05:01,795
tell where this goes.

133
00:05:02,495 --> 00:05:04,335
Okay. As we're, gonna get into the rest

203
00:07:22,545 --> 00:07:23,685
and share with you guys.

204
00:07:24,944 --> 00:07:25,925
Last Thursday,

205
00:07:26,464 --> 00:07:27,525
I met with,

206
00:07:29,779 --> 00:07:31,620
a couple of my team members, sir, Blueberry.

207
00:07:31,620 --> 00:07:32,839
One of them has,

208
00:07:33,699 --> 00:07:35,720
type two diabetes like I do.

209
00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:39,300
And, I was you know, he's got the

210
00:07:39,300 --> 00:07:41,400
patch. I'll you know, one of those patches

211
00:07:41,460 --> 00:07:41,779
that,

212
00:07:42,794 --> 00:07:44,334
measures the blood sugar.

213
00:07:45,115 --> 00:07:47,035
And, you know, I basically said my, you

214
00:07:47,035 --> 00:07:47,535
know,

215
00:07:48,074 --> 00:07:49,834
my insurance won't do it. I I have

216
00:07:49,834 --> 00:07:50,814
to poke,

217
00:07:51,435 --> 00:07:52,414
prick blood,

218
00:07:52,954 --> 00:07:54,875
you know, and and check the levels. And,

219
00:07:54,875 --> 00:07:55,560
you know, that's,

220
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,519
in my opinion, quite the antiquated way to

221
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:00,839
go considering they've got all these monitors and

222
00:08:00,839 --> 00:08:03,480
how expensive they were. And he mentioned to

223
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:04,040
me that,

224
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:05,899
you can now get,

225
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,980
blood sugar monitoring for about

226
00:08:10,345 --> 00:08:12,345
a $100 a month if you wanna pay

227
00:08:12,345 --> 00:08:13,084
for it yourself.

228
00:08:14,105 --> 00:08:15,644
So I ordered

229
00:08:15,944 --> 00:08:16,925
from Amazon

230
00:08:17,704 --> 00:08:20,444
a Dexcom system, and those of you

231
00:08:20,904 --> 00:08:23,900
that have type two diabetes may be aware

232
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:27,639
of of these devices, and, I started wearing

233
00:08:27,639 --> 00:08:28,460
it today.

234
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:29,980
It came in.

235
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,840
And, you know, I'm always interested in the

236
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,259
tech of these things and this applicator.

237
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,420
You know? I can see

238
00:08:37,815 --> 00:08:40,934
potentially why part of this cost about $50

239
00:08:40,934 --> 00:08:42,134
every two weeks. But,

240
00:08:43,575 --> 00:08:46,134
you know, this this applicator is very, very

241
00:08:46,134 --> 00:08:46,634
simple

242
00:08:47,254 --> 00:08:49,195
to to deploy the sensor.

243
00:08:50,455 --> 00:08:52,774
And I'm gonna be very, very curious now

244
00:08:52,774 --> 00:08:54,800
because to be honest with you, I just

245
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,060
got sick and tired of poke poke poke.

246
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,279
And, you know, those of you that have

247
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:01,200
to, check your blood sugar from time to

248
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,740
time know what I'm talking about.

249
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,759
So I think this is gonna be you

250
00:09:05,759 --> 00:09:07,605
know, it's a $100 a month, but,

251
00:09:10,245 --> 00:09:12,824
you know, for being able to watch things

252
00:09:13,125 --> 00:09:15,464
really hour by hour, day by day,

253
00:09:15,924 --> 00:09:18,884
see what I've done, what I've ate, because

254
00:09:18,884 --> 00:09:21,544
I kinda have an idea all these years,

255
00:09:21,605 --> 00:09:23,720
you know, all these years later. But to

256
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,399
have it really be able to say, hey.

257
00:09:25,399 --> 00:09:25,899
Alert.

258
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,379
You know, your blood sugar's high or

259
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:29,179
low,

260
00:09:30,519 --> 00:09:32,360
and and kinda be able to get a

261
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,220
better idea, I think is,

262
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,394
is fantastic. But if you didn't know

263
00:09:37,855 --> 00:09:40,014
that these are available and this is this

264
00:09:40,014 --> 00:09:43,075
is not sponsored. So just so you aware,

265
00:09:44,894 --> 00:09:47,535
the company that I again, it's it's called

266
00:09:47,535 --> 00:09:48,035
Dexcom,

267
00:09:49,054 --> 00:09:51,215
and I think it actually goes under a

268
00:09:51,215 --> 00:09:51,690
different,

269
00:09:52,169 --> 00:09:53,149
name online.

270
00:09:54,090 --> 00:09:56,730
You can go to Stello. Stello is the

271
00:09:56,730 --> 00:09:57,230
name

272
00:09:57,929 --> 00:09:58,570
of the,

273
00:09:59,690 --> 00:10:00,669
of the app.

274
00:10:01,049 --> 00:10:01,549
So,

275
00:10:03,610 --> 00:10:05,289
that's what I found. You know, I found

276
00:10:05,289 --> 00:10:06,809
the Stello piece on,

277
00:10:07,535 --> 00:10:08,995
on Amazon. And,

278
00:10:10,495 --> 00:10:11,075
so, anyway,

279
00:10:11,455 --> 00:10:13,215
it's gonna be interesting, and I'll keep you

280
00:10:13,215 --> 00:10:14,975
all advised for those of you that even

281
00:10:14,975 --> 00:10:15,475
care,

282
00:10:16,254 --> 00:10:18,095
and those of you maybe facing type two

283
00:10:18,095 --> 00:10:20,509
and maybe those of you that have never,

284
00:10:23,050 --> 00:10:25,790
never used one of these, devices before.

285
00:10:27,450 --> 00:10:27,930
But,

286
00:10:28,570 --> 00:10:30,110
you know, I'm taking a little more

287
00:10:30,570 --> 00:10:31,070
care

288
00:10:31,450 --> 00:10:32,830
to know, to understand,

289
00:10:33,345 --> 00:10:34,884
And I ain't always have,

290
00:10:35,584 --> 00:10:35,985
but,

291
00:10:36,544 --> 00:10:38,404
it's nice to kinda have this,

292
00:10:38,865 --> 00:10:40,324
you know, hour by hour,

293
00:10:41,105 --> 00:10:42,804
what I've ate, did it matter.

294
00:10:43,184 --> 00:10:45,824
And, you know, typically, I'm, you know, pretty

295
00:10:45,824 --> 00:10:47,184
good at being able to tell where my

296
00:10:47,184 --> 00:10:49,120
sugar is at just because I know my

297
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,019
body. And as I suspected, when I

298
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,960
first few readings I got today, I just

299
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,200
got done eating. So, of course, sugar was

300
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,559
up a little bit. Now the question is

301
00:10:58,559 --> 00:10:59,220
how fast

302
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:00,740
does it come down?

303
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,054
That that is really the key. So,

304
00:11:06,355 --> 00:11:07,794
just give you an update on that and

305
00:11:07,794 --> 00:11:09,174
what in what I'm doing.

306
00:11:09,955 --> 00:11:10,434
And,

307
00:11:10,914 --> 00:11:12,615
trying trying the goal.

308
00:11:13,315 --> 00:11:15,014
The goal here over the next,

309
00:11:17,154 --> 00:11:17,894
six months

310
00:11:18,940 --> 00:11:21,679
is try to lose, 40 pounds.

311
00:11:22,539 --> 00:11:23,039
So

312
00:11:23,419 --> 00:11:25,919
big challenge. I've never lost more than 20.

313
00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:26,960
So,

314
00:11:27,419 --> 00:11:29,679
at one time. So the goal is 40,

315
00:11:30,460 --> 00:11:32,059
and and we'll see if I can,

316
00:11:32,605 --> 00:11:34,544
if I can get, get skinny.

317
00:11:35,325 --> 00:11:37,085
You know, I'm not really skinny, but, you

318
00:11:37,085 --> 00:11:38,845
know, I'd like to get down to a

319
00:11:38,845 --> 00:11:40,684
hundred and sixty pounds. That's kind of the

320
00:11:40,684 --> 00:11:41,184
target,

321
00:11:41,965 --> 00:11:44,384
because I'm right now, like, one ninety six,

322
00:11:44,445 --> 00:11:46,304
something like that. And if I could lose

323
00:11:46,490 --> 00:11:48,569
40 pounds, that would be, that would be

324
00:11:48,569 --> 00:11:49,069
fantastic.

325
00:11:49,690 --> 00:11:51,449
The goal really is kinda like one fifty

326
00:11:51,449 --> 00:11:53,209
seven. I don't know why. It's just a

327
00:11:53,209 --> 00:11:54,669
number that's stuck in my head.

328
00:11:55,129 --> 00:11:55,569
So,

329
00:11:56,009 --> 00:11:56,509
anyway,

330
00:11:57,289 --> 00:11:58,269
enough personal

331
00:11:58,985 --> 00:12:01,485
discussion. Hey. I do wanna thank the insiders.

362
00:13:09,424 --> 00:13:09,779
know.

363
00:13:10,820 --> 00:13:11,720

00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:25,934
get, a Visa here.

371
00:13:26,955 --> 00:13:28,894
So something about gold. Right?

372
00:13:29,434 --> 00:13:31,615
And, details on the phone are sketchy.

373
00:13:32,554 --> 00:13:33,054
And,

374
00:13:33,595 --> 00:13:35,274
but, you know, the image they put up

375
00:13:35,274 --> 00:13:37,710
was definitely photoshopped as everyone says.

376
00:13:38,509 --> 00:13:40,590
But, apparently, we have have 12 gigs of

377
00:13:40,590 --> 00:13:42,670
RAM, 206 of expand on mortgage, run on

378
00:13:42,670 --> 00:13:43,649
Android 15,

379
00:13:44,190 --> 00:13:46,129
have a 6.7 inch display.

380
00:13:46,670 --> 00:13:48,450
How who's gonna make that in

381
00:13:48,910 --> 00:13:49,410
America?

382
00:13:51,389 --> 00:13:52,769
They're gonna do this

383
00:13:55,605 --> 00:13:58,264
through T Mobile and and as a NVNO.

384
00:13:58,565 --> 00:14:00,504
Now I heard a podcast just recently

385
00:14:01,125 --> 00:14:02,424
launched a NVNO

386
00:14:03,125 --> 00:14:04,745
service that was tied

387
00:14:05,125 --> 00:14:07,205
to to T Mobile. I thought that was

388
00:14:07,205 --> 00:14:08,184
kind of smart.

389
00:14:09,089 --> 00:14:10,450
You know, we could have the Geek News

390
00:14:10,450 --> 00:14:11,669
Central phone network.

391
00:14:12,209 --> 00:14:13,889
Is is it setting one of those up

392
00:14:13,889 --> 00:14:15,829
now as just getting a branding deal?

393
00:14:16,769 --> 00:14:19,009
You know? That's you know, and setting a

394
00:14:19,009 --> 00:14:20,549
price and, you know,

395
00:14:21,570 --> 00:14:23,429
you know, what does it take now to

396
00:14:23,534 --> 00:14:26,095
to launch your own mobile phone service? You

397
00:14:26,095 --> 00:14:27,774
know, it sounds like it to me. It's

398
00:14:27,774 --> 00:14:30,034
just as easy as doing a branding deal.

399
00:14:30,894 --> 00:14:31,634
Who knows?

400
00:14:32,894 --> 00:14:34,815
The made of Oakley smart glasses are real,

401
00:14:34,815 --> 00:14:36,495
and here's what to expect from a Friday

402
00:14:36,495 --> 00:14:38,815
announcement. The new generation smart glasses is upon

403
00:14:38,815 --> 00:14:39,029
us

404
00:14:39,910 --> 00:14:41,850
with the announcement coming this Friday.

405
00:14:42,629 --> 00:14:43,029
So,

406
00:14:43,910 --> 00:14:46,470
you know, here's what about all these glasses

407
00:14:46,470 --> 00:14:46,970
that

408
00:14:47,830 --> 00:14:50,649
I love and hate. I would really love

409
00:14:51,190 --> 00:14:52,570
to to try the tech.

410
00:14:53,029 --> 00:14:55,424
I really I really would. I would I

411
00:14:55,424 --> 00:14:57,285
would nothing more than love to order

412
00:14:57,745 --> 00:14:59,684
a set of these Oakley smart glasses.

413
00:15:00,065 --> 00:15:00,565
But

414
00:15:01,264 --> 00:15:02,965
number two, I look like

415
00:15:03,585 --> 00:15:05,205
dog doo doo in

416
00:15:05,825 --> 00:15:06,325
Oakley

417
00:15:06,705 --> 00:15:09,009
sunglasses. I really do. I I I'm not

418
00:15:09,009 --> 00:15:10,870
I'm not 25 years old anymore.

419
00:15:11,329 --> 00:15:12,690
Yeah. I'm I'm not, you know, I'm not

420
00:15:12,690 --> 00:15:14,870
a sports bra bra or anything.

421
00:15:15,569 --> 00:15:16,069
And,

422
00:15:16,690 --> 00:15:17,970
you know, I I think it'd be cool,

423
00:15:17,970 --> 00:15:19,329
but, also, at the same time, I need

424
00:15:19,329 --> 00:15:20,629
a prescription pair.

425
00:15:21,730 --> 00:15:23,384
I I don't need some that is

426
00:15:25,304 --> 00:15:27,165
just, you know, just plain glasses.

427
00:15:29,225 --> 00:15:31,785
So, apparently, those of you that are Oakley

428
00:15:31,785 --> 00:15:32,285
fans,

429
00:15:33,705 --> 00:15:35,465
you're gonna get to your there's a new

430
00:15:35,465 --> 00:15:37,404
Instagram Oakley Maida account,

431
00:15:38,620 --> 00:15:39,120
and,

432
00:15:41,820 --> 00:15:44,399
the camera is centered on the nose bridge.

433
00:15:45,100 --> 00:15:47,259
And I'd be worried as big as my

434
00:15:47,259 --> 00:15:49,660
nose is is that the, the camera would

435
00:15:49,660 --> 00:15:50,879
just see my nose.

436
00:15:51,644 --> 00:15:53,565
It's gonna be interesting how these are gonna

437
00:15:53,565 --> 00:15:54,065
rest,

438
00:15:55,004 --> 00:15:57,004
on the nose. There's gotta be pads or

439
00:15:57,004 --> 00:15:58,684
something to keep it off your nose bridge

440
00:15:58,684 --> 00:15:59,904
or that's gonna be

441
00:16:00,365 --> 00:16:01,184
super painful.

442
00:16:01,884 --> 00:16:02,384
But,

443
00:16:02,845 --> 00:16:05,084
anyway, did you know, they're they're predicting what

444
00:16:05,084 --> 00:16:06,769
it's gonna look like. You know, I'm I'm

445
00:16:06,769 --> 00:16:08,769
a big Oakley fan. I I believe

446
00:16:09,410 --> 00:16:12,070
am I wearing Oakley's now? No. My previous

447
00:16:13,250 --> 00:16:13,750
glasses,

448
00:16:14,929 --> 00:16:16,070
these are not Oakley's.

449
00:16:18,129 --> 00:16:20,070
But I've I've owned a lot of Oakley

450
00:16:20,485 --> 00:16:20,985
eyewear

451
00:16:21,845 --> 00:16:24,404
that look great, but not sunglasses. So maybe

452
00:16:24,404 --> 00:16:26,825
it's coming to eyewear. I time will tell.

453
00:16:27,365 --> 00:16:30,004
But, what say you? Are you gonna go

454
00:16:30,004 --> 00:16:32,085
out there and get yourself a pair of,

455
00:16:33,125 --> 00:16:36,459
of, Oakley meta glasses? Or is this just,

456
00:16:36,459 --> 00:16:38,720
you know I have my old

457
00:16:39,259 --> 00:16:39,759
Apple

458
00:16:42,220 --> 00:16:42,720
camera

459
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:45,419
glasses. Those gotta be worth something at some

460
00:16:45,419 --> 00:16:47,759
point. So I've got them boxed away.

461
00:16:48,434 --> 00:16:50,915
Someday, sometime, maybe twenty years from now, someone

462
00:16:50,915 --> 00:16:52,995
will want to to buy those for a

463
00:16:52,995 --> 00:16:54,535
museum or something. But

464
00:16:54,995 --> 00:16:57,394
considering the number of people that you know,

465
00:16:57,394 --> 00:16:59,315
how few that were actually out in the,

466
00:16:59,955 --> 00:17:00,455
ecosphere.

467
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,169
And just to think, I went to

468
00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:06,650
I flew from Hawaii to San Francisco

469
00:17:07,750 --> 00:17:10,170
to get these stupid things from Apple

470
00:17:10,950 --> 00:17:11,930
back in the day.

471
00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:14,549
And I paid for that airline ticket too.

472
00:17:14,549 --> 00:17:16,250
There was no free ride on that.

473
00:17:16,549 --> 00:17:18,404
You guys remember that when I got those?

474
00:17:18,805 --> 00:17:21,465
And I probably wore those things less than

475
00:17:24,404 --> 00:17:25,945
less than a hundred hours

476
00:17:26,565 --> 00:17:28,345
largely because there was no prescription

477
00:17:28,644 --> 00:17:29,224
on them.

478
00:17:29,605 --> 00:17:31,980
And and, I just couldn't see.

479
00:17:34,539 --> 00:17:36,380
Oh, I think I'm am I blurry right

480
00:17:36,380 --> 00:17:36,880
now?

481
00:17:38,859 --> 00:17:41,119
That camera's it looks like it's focused.

482
00:17:43,740 --> 00:17:46,059
The International Space Station leak has pushed the

483
00:17:46,059 --> 00:17:47,654
Axiom mission for launch

484
00:17:48,695 --> 00:17:50,394
to no longer than June 19.

485
00:17:51,494 --> 00:17:53,575
Concerns over a leak have been mounting for

486
00:17:53,575 --> 00:17:54,934
some time, and,

487
00:17:55,575 --> 00:17:57,174
we know what's getting along in the tooth.

488
00:17:57,174 --> 00:17:59,494
The Russian segment is be set of small

489
00:17:59,494 --> 00:17:59,994
cracks,

490
00:18:01,109 --> 00:18:01,609
and,

491
00:18:02,070 --> 00:18:03,930
they apparently have found

492
00:18:05,589 --> 00:18:06,410
the issue

493
00:18:06,710 --> 00:18:08,970
as they say that pressure was now stable

494
00:18:09,869 --> 00:18:10,369
and,

495
00:18:11,910 --> 00:18:14,009
or it would have been before dropping.

496
00:18:14,704 --> 00:18:16,865
So they didn't wanna bring people up there.

497
00:18:16,865 --> 00:18:17,684
So maybe,

498
00:18:18,785 --> 00:18:21,684
we will have a launch on, the nineteenth

499
00:18:21,825 --> 00:18:23,365
with this with this crew

500
00:18:23,664 --> 00:18:25,984
for Crew Dragon. So time will tell. Let

501
00:18:25,984 --> 00:18:27,204
me move this over

502
00:18:28,065 --> 00:18:29,125
and double check

503
00:18:29,819 --> 00:18:31,679
and see because just

504
00:18:33,019 --> 00:18:34,399
yeah. It looks clear.

505
00:18:35,339 --> 00:18:36,779
If if you're watching the show today, just

506
00:18:36,779 --> 00:18:38,000
check-in and say hello.

507
00:18:39,259 --> 00:18:42,059
So, anyway, this, ISS leaking, you know, they're

508
00:18:42,794 --> 00:18:44,254
I I think I would be

509
00:18:45,914 --> 00:18:47,855
keeping my oxygen mask

510
00:18:48,634 --> 00:18:49,134
close.

511
00:18:50,714 --> 00:18:52,394
They obviously know what to do in case

512
00:18:52,394 --> 00:18:53,914
there's a big leak. They'd have to shut

513
00:18:53,914 --> 00:18:56,150
the module off, But it seems to me

514
00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:57,509
like that would be a very I I

515
00:18:57,509 --> 00:18:59,509
don't think I'd keep too many personal items

516
00:18:59,509 --> 00:19:01,509
over in that segment, but it is the

517
00:19:01,509 --> 00:19:02,890
Russian segment. So,

518
00:19:03,349 --> 00:19:04,230
you know, Russian,

519
00:19:04,549 --> 00:19:06,890
Russian stuff never breaks. Right?

520
00:19:07,430 --> 00:19:09,554
Never breaks at all. Hey. If you're running

521
00:19:09,554 --> 00:19:11,815
Windows 11, you may have gotten a retro

522
00:19:12,515 --> 00:19:13,734
Vista boot noise.

523
00:19:15,554 --> 00:19:17,634
Windows insiders on the beta and dev builds

524
00:19:17,634 --> 00:19:19,954
are greeted with nostalgic startup sound after the

525
00:19:19,954 --> 00:19:22,275
latest update. Yep. You heard the you heard

526
00:19:22,275 --> 00:19:23,815
the old Vista boot.

527
00:19:24,279 --> 00:19:27,720
And, I don't even remember what that boot

528
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:28,619
noise is,

529
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,859
but, yeah, it's it's a bug.

530
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,079
But it it's kind of a funny one.

531
00:19:33,079 --> 00:19:35,240
It real it really is, and, they'll they'll

532
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:36,460
get that switched around.

533
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,384
The next Galaxy Watch will read antioxidant levels

534
00:19:40,384 --> 00:19:42,305
and give you a useful bedtime guidance and

535
00:19:42,305 --> 00:19:44,884
become the running coach you always wanted.

536
00:19:45,345 --> 00:19:48,085
And, so that's interesting. It's going to watch

537
00:19:48,465 --> 00:19:48,965
antioxidant

538
00:19:49,345 --> 00:19:49,740
levels.

539
00:19:50,539 --> 00:19:52,799
Is that is is that really a thing?

540
00:19:53,420 --> 00:19:54,859
Those of you that are out there that

541
00:19:54,859 --> 00:19:57,660
are health nuts, please give me some feedback.

542
00:19:57,660 --> 00:19:58,160
What

543
00:19:58,700 --> 00:19:59,599
what is it actually

544
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:00,400
reading?

545
00:20:08,275 --> 00:20:08,775
So

546
00:20:09,154 --> 00:20:10,994
what does it say? It it's it's it's

547
00:20:10,994 --> 00:20:12,775
doing everything it has done.

548
00:20:13,714 --> 00:20:16,194
It's looking at your heartbeat, your sleeping time.

549
00:20:16,194 --> 00:20:17,954
I don't sleep with my watch. That's the

550
00:20:17,954 --> 00:20:18,694
only thing.

551
00:20:19,794 --> 00:20:20,294
But

552
00:20:20,659 --> 00:20:22,359
oxidants, I guess, is this from

553
00:20:23,220 --> 00:20:24,279
from exercise?

554
00:20:28,179 --> 00:20:29,319
Now what's funny

555
00:20:29,940 --> 00:20:30,440
is

556
00:20:32,099 --> 00:20:34,099
they don't give too much detail on this

557
00:20:34,099 --> 00:20:35,315
anti oxidant

558
00:20:36,815 --> 00:20:37,315
stuff.

559
00:20:38,815 --> 00:20:41,294
It says it's gonna introduce anti oxidants, but

560
00:20:41,294 --> 00:20:43,394
it doesn't tell you exactly what.

561
00:20:45,454 --> 00:20:48,014
So the next galley Galaxy Watch will read

562
00:20:48,014 --> 00:20:50,789
anti oxidant levels, give you useful bedtime guidance,

563
00:20:50,789 --> 00:20:52,890
and become the running coach you always wanted.

564
00:20:53,750 --> 00:20:56,470
I can't run on a surface because of

565
00:20:56,470 --> 00:20:57,930
my back injury, but,

566
00:20:59,509 --> 00:21:01,565
any of you got one of these Galaxy

567
00:21:02,024 --> 00:21:02,524
watches?

568
00:21:03,224 --> 00:21:05,304
Yeah. Here's the thing. I I waited. And

569
00:21:05,304 --> 00:21:07,404
one of the reasons why I was waiting

570
00:21:08,264 --> 00:21:11,065
to hopefully not have to do this this

571
00:21:11,065 --> 00:21:11,884
patch thing

572
00:21:12,744 --> 00:21:14,684
was I wanted the ability

573
00:21:15,065 --> 00:21:15,724
to have

574
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,039
my watch do the blood sugar levels. And,

575
00:21:21,039 --> 00:21:23,360
of course, it's never come. And, of course,

576
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:24,340
I've seen advertisements

577
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:27,380
on various social media platforms

578
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,320
that talk about these new sensors. You can

579
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:31,515
just stick your finger in it.

580
00:21:32,875 --> 00:21:34,954
Of course, from China, that tells supposed to

581
00:21:34,954 --> 00:21:36,875
tell you your blood sugar levels, but it's

582
00:21:36,875 --> 00:21:38,974
fake advertising. There's no such thing.

583
00:21:40,315 --> 00:21:42,634
All it does tells us oxygen level just

584
00:21:42,634 --> 00:21:44,875
like anything like a regular oxygen level, your

585
00:21:44,875 --> 00:21:45,375
heartbeat,

586
00:21:46,180 --> 00:21:49,140
and, it doesn't really tell you anything more

587
00:21:49,140 --> 00:21:49,880
than that.

588
00:21:50,339 --> 00:21:51,859
So don't think you're gonna go out and

589
00:21:51,859 --> 00:21:52,839
buy one of those

590
00:21:53,619 --> 00:21:54,839
$20 devices.

591
00:21:56,019 --> 00:21:57,859
I tried because of the, oh, well, maybe

592
00:21:57,859 --> 00:21:59,924
there's something out there. And when it came,

593
00:21:59,924 --> 00:22:01,384
you know, they they advertised

594
00:22:01,924 --> 00:22:04,005
that it would do blood sugar levels, but

595
00:22:04,005 --> 00:22:07,285
no. Total false advertising. So I've got something

596
00:22:07,285 --> 00:22:08,884
now that, you know, I can check my

597
00:22:08,884 --> 00:22:11,525
oxygen level with. But other than that, it's,

598
00:22:11,684 --> 00:22:12,904
$20 wasted.

599
00:22:14,329 --> 00:22:18,329
Google's 32,000,000,000 wiz deal draws DOJ antitrust scrutiny.

600
00:22:18,329 --> 00:22:20,890
According to reports, US Department of Justice will

601
00:22:20,890 --> 00:22:23,069
assess whether the deal would harm competition.

602
00:22:23,609 --> 00:22:25,950
I'm not really familiar with the wiz.

603
00:22:28,474 --> 00:22:31,295
So I guess Wiz is a cybersecurity

604
00:22:31,835 --> 00:22:32,335
product.

605
00:22:34,075 --> 00:22:34,575
So

606
00:22:36,634 --> 00:22:39,355
Bloomberg noted the companies were anticipating pushback with

607
00:22:39,355 --> 00:22:41,275
Google agreeing to a breakup fee of roughly

608
00:22:41,275 --> 00:22:42,414
3,200,000,000.0

609
00:22:42,930 --> 00:22:44,390
should the deal fall

610
00:22:45,570 --> 00:22:47,410
through. The pros deal comes after a year

611
00:22:47,410 --> 00:22:49,670
after Wiz walked away from a 23,000,000,000

612
00:22:49,730 --> 00:22:52,930
offers expected to reorder the competitive landscape with

613
00:22:52,930 --> 00:22:55,934
Microsoft and reshape our investors. Think about funding

614
00:22:55,934 --> 00:22:57,154
cloud security startups.

615
00:22:59,375 --> 00:23:02,274
Apparently, Google struggled for relevance in enterprise cybersecurity,

616
00:23:04,095 --> 00:23:06,414
but apparently, Wiz is gonna help you with

617
00:23:06,414 --> 00:23:08,494
the men and an assets the company is

618
00:23:08,494 --> 00:23:10,835
chasing in a vicious strategy blah blah blah.

619
00:23:11,294 --> 00:23:13,029
So, So, of course, the DOJ is going

620
00:23:13,029 --> 00:23:14,090
to look at anything

621
00:23:14,710 --> 00:23:17,029
Google is doing right now considering they're just

622
00:23:17,029 --> 00:23:18,250
coming off this trial.

623
00:23:19,029 --> 00:23:19,509
So,

624
00:23:21,029 --> 00:23:21,930
so be it.

625
00:23:23,269 --> 00:23:25,315
Of course, you know, we just passed Father's

626
00:23:25,315 --> 00:23:27,234
Day. And for all the fathers out there,

627
00:23:27,315 --> 00:23:28,535
happy Father's Day.

628
00:23:29,234 --> 00:23:30,994
Four of my five kids checked in on

629
00:23:30,994 --> 00:23:32,595
me, so, you know, I feel pretty good

630
00:23:32,595 --> 00:23:33,335
about that.

631
00:23:35,474 --> 00:23:36,535
The fifth one,

632
00:23:37,049 --> 00:23:39,690
I don't know what she's doing, but, yes.

633
00:23:39,690 --> 00:23:40,750
One of them forgot.

634
00:23:41,369 --> 00:23:41,869
So,

635
00:23:42,650 --> 00:23:44,490
I'm not alone. I was talking to some

636
00:23:44,490 --> 00:23:46,330
other people today, and someone else was saying,

637
00:23:46,330 --> 00:23:48,170
yeah. Two of my kids forgot to wish

638
00:23:48,170 --> 00:23:50,724
me happy Father's Day. And they they remember

639
00:23:50,724 --> 00:23:53,125
about Mother's Day, but they don't remember Father's

640
00:23:53,125 --> 00:23:54,105
Day, do they?

641
00:23:56,085 --> 00:23:56,585
So,

642
00:23:56,964 --> 00:23:58,964
you know, even Shoko has said happy Father's

643
00:23:58,964 --> 00:24:01,365
Day, which was which was nice. So and,

644
00:24:01,365 --> 00:24:03,210
you know, other people did as well. But

645
00:24:03,769 --> 00:24:05,769
one of your only children forget, you kinda

646
00:24:05,769 --> 00:24:07,769
like, I wonder if I should forget their

647
00:24:07,769 --> 00:24:08,269
birthday.

648
00:24:08,970 --> 00:24:11,130
So Victoria's Secret says all systems are back

649
00:24:11,130 --> 00:24:13,049
online as, you know, basically, what triggered that

650
00:24:13,049 --> 00:24:14,569
was I was thinking it wasn't, you know,

651
00:24:14,569 --> 00:24:17,130
it wasn't Father's Day. It was, you know,

652
00:24:17,130 --> 00:24:18,775
it was Father's Day. It wasn't Mother's Day,

653
00:24:18,775 --> 00:24:19,835
so it wasn't like

654
00:24:21,335 --> 00:24:23,035
well, maybe the guys bought some

655
00:24:23,335 --> 00:24:25,734
Victoria's Secret stuff for their, for their wives

656
00:24:25,734 --> 00:24:28,455
for Father's Day. I don't know. But, Victoria's

657
00:24:28,455 --> 00:24:30,775
Secret says all systems are back online filing

658
00:24:30,775 --> 00:24:31,355
a cyberattack,

659
00:24:31,980 --> 00:24:35,259
and it's investigating into the they're investigating how

660
00:24:35,259 --> 00:24:37,579
the attack happened and so forth. So you

661
00:24:37,579 --> 00:24:39,920
can go out there and buy some, Victoria's

662
00:24:40,380 --> 00:24:40,880
Secret's,

663
00:24:43,019 --> 00:24:44,240
some products here.

664
00:24:45,625 --> 00:24:48,744
So it's been fifty years since Jaws. Can

665
00:24:48,744 --> 00:24:50,825
you believe that? So every Jaws movie is

666
00:24:50,825 --> 00:24:51,565
now coming

667
00:24:51,944 --> 00:24:52,345
to,

668
00:24:52,744 --> 00:24:53,244
online.

669
00:24:54,105 --> 00:24:54,605
And,

670
00:24:54,984 --> 00:24:56,605
so if you if you miss,

671
00:24:58,424 --> 00:25:01,005
don't wanna watch the full series again,

672
00:25:01,529 --> 00:25:02,750
It will be available.

673
00:25:03,610 --> 00:25:05,610
And, I I don't think I wanna watch,

674
00:25:07,210 --> 00:25:10,190
Jaws once again. I little past that.

675
00:25:10,970 --> 00:25:12,650
I think I watched the first two, and

676
00:25:12,650 --> 00:25:14,110
and that's probably all.

677
00:25:14,650 --> 00:25:16,934
One thing, the and I don't think I

678
00:25:16,934 --> 00:25:19,434
picked up on this beginning, but there was

679
00:25:20,054 --> 00:25:21,595
some ice age puppies

680
00:25:22,615 --> 00:25:23,095
and,

681
00:25:23,734 --> 00:25:24,394
that were

682
00:25:25,015 --> 00:25:28,454
essentially buried in frozen ice for, like, fourteen

683
00:25:28,454 --> 00:25:29,434
thousand years.

684
00:25:30,134 --> 00:25:33,250
Now these ice age puppies were not puppies.

685
00:25:34,990 --> 00:25:36,529
They were wolf cubs.

686
00:25:37,470 --> 00:25:37,950
And,

687
00:25:38,589 --> 00:25:39,569
there's some remarkable

688
00:25:39,950 --> 00:25:41,869
science that's been pulled out of them. They

689
00:25:41,869 --> 00:25:42,769
died suddenly,

690
00:25:44,304 --> 00:25:46,544
probably in a landslide or something to that

691
00:25:46,544 --> 00:25:47,044
effect,

692
00:25:47,664 --> 00:25:49,424
but they've been able to do all kinds

693
00:25:49,424 --> 00:25:50,964
of analysis on

694
00:25:51,345 --> 00:25:53,184
what they had in their stomach and a

695
00:25:53,184 --> 00:25:54,884
whole bunch of stuff. It's crazy.

696
00:25:55,559 --> 00:25:57,559
So, link is in the show notes on

697
00:25:57,559 --> 00:25:58,059
that.

698
00:25:58,600 --> 00:25:59,100
And,

699
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,519
you you can take a link you can

700
00:26:02,519 --> 00:26:04,600
take a read through the link, but, pretty

701
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,960
impressive. 14,000

702
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,960
years ago. Just saying about the science we

703
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,140
have today and what we're able to extract

704
00:26:11,065 --> 00:26:12,664
and and learn. Now what will they be

705
00:26:12,664 --> 00:26:15,225
doing against us in twenty or thirty thousand

706
00:26:15,225 --> 00:26:17,325
years? That's the next question.

707
00:26:18,825 --> 00:26:20,825
Maybe watching this type of content here and

708
00:26:20,825 --> 00:26:22,105
look at the you know, say, look at

709
00:26:22,105 --> 00:26:23,404
those primitive people,

710
00:26:24,130 --> 00:26:26,289
doing podcast when, you know, we could just

711
00:26:26,289 --> 00:26:27,349
be putting the,

712
00:26:27,730 --> 00:26:29,910
content out through telepathy or something.

713
00:26:30,929 --> 00:26:33,169
OnePlus could be writing a tablet to take

714
00:26:33,169 --> 00:26:34,390
on the mighty iPad.

715
00:26:35,650 --> 00:26:37,304
Well, you know, I know a lot of

716
00:26:37,304 --> 00:26:40,505
people have different devices besides the iPad as

717
00:26:40,505 --> 00:26:42,664
far as tablets go. I know there's a

718
00:26:42,664 --> 00:26:44,424
strong number of pea a lot of people

719
00:26:44,424 --> 00:26:46,204
have either Microsoft or,

720
00:26:47,384 --> 00:26:49,704
Samsung tablets, that type of thing, in Android

721
00:26:49,704 --> 00:26:50,369
based tablets.

722
00:26:50,849 --> 00:26:52,769
But they're saying OnePlus could be running a

723
00:26:52,769 --> 00:26:53,269
tablet,

724
00:26:54,289 --> 00:26:55,730
and it will be a new it'll be

725
00:26:55,730 --> 00:26:57,190
a budget Android tablet.

726
00:26:58,930 --> 00:27:01,490
Leaked render show familiar design with 11 inch

727
00:27:01,490 --> 00:27:04,184
display and a MediaTek Helo g 100 processor,

728
00:27:04,804 --> 00:27:07,065
a ninety three forty m a h battery.

729
00:27:07,845 --> 00:27:09,764
The tablet is supposed expect to ship with

730
00:27:09,764 --> 00:27:10,825
Android 15.

731
00:27:11,764 --> 00:27:12,884
So we will see,

732
00:27:13,444 --> 00:27:15,365
if this is a go and how much

733
00:27:15,365 --> 00:27:17,224
it's gonna cost out of the box.

734
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,799
So any of you that, do not like,

735
00:27:20,279 --> 00:27:21,900
iPhone products and services,

736
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,720
you do have a option. This headline from

737
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,500
CNET says you are lazy.

738
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,325
Your passwords are lazy, and hackers love it.

739
00:27:32,884 --> 00:27:35,125
A new CNET survey finds forty nine percent

740
00:27:35,125 --> 00:27:37,704
of adults have risky password habits.

741
00:27:38,404 --> 00:27:40,005
Nearly one in four of us use the

742
00:27:40,005 --> 00:27:42,024
same passwords for multiple counts.

743
00:27:42,565 --> 00:27:44,964
So, you know, come on now. There's no

744
00:27:44,964 --> 00:27:46,730
need for that at this time.

745
00:27:47,430 --> 00:27:48,970
I'm a big one password,

746
00:27:49,750 --> 00:27:50,250
user.

747
00:27:50,950 --> 00:27:53,190
I'm also doing a lot of pass keys

748
00:27:53,190 --> 00:27:54,009
these days.

749
00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:57,029
So, you know, go out there and get

750
00:27:57,029 --> 00:27:57,529
yourself

751
00:27:58,005 --> 00:27:59,464
a password manager.

752
00:28:00,724 --> 00:28:03,144
It's really, really time to do that.

753
00:28:03,445 --> 00:28:06,805
The CNET CNET survey found the risky password

754
00:28:06,805 --> 00:28:09,445
habits US most adults commonly turn to include

755
00:28:09,445 --> 00:28:10,424
reusing passwords

756
00:28:11,099 --> 00:28:13,019
and using a personal data as part of

757
00:28:13,019 --> 00:28:13,599
a password.

758
00:28:13,980 --> 00:28:16,299
While 24, they use the same password, different

759
00:28:16,299 --> 00:28:18,859
accounts, eight percent admit to using password that

760
00:28:18,859 --> 00:28:19,500
they know

761
00:28:20,299 --> 00:28:20,799
what?

762
00:28:21,180 --> 00:28:23,819
Eight percent admitted using a password they know

763
00:28:23,819 --> 00:28:25,484
was compromised in a data breach?

764
00:28:29,804 --> 00:28:30,304
What?

765
00:28:30,684 --> 00:28:31,184
What?

766
00:28:32,045 --> 00:28:34,605
Eight percent admitted to using a password that

767
00:28:34,605 --> 00:28:36,944
they know is compromised in a data breach.

768
00:28:39,289 --> 00:28:41,289
I I guess they're just hoping that people

769
00:28:41,289 --> 00:28:42,909
aren't going to log in

770
00:28:45,450 --> 00:28:45,950
to

771
00:28:46,649 --> 00:28:47,470
their account

772
00:28:49,049 --> 00:28:50,829
or know what accounts they're using.

773
00:28:51,664 --> 00:28:52,865
So in the past year, which of the

774
00:28:52,865 --> 00:28:55,105
following have you incorporated when creating and updating

775
00:28:55,105 --> 00:28:56,804
your passwords? Twenty five percent

776
00:28:57,105 --> 00:28:59,044
were using a randomly generated password.

777
00:28:59,585 --> 00:29:00,724
24%,

778
00:29:01,024 --> 00:29:02,884
a password shared with another account.

779
00:29:03,345 --> 00:29:04,144
15%,

780
00:29:04,144 --> 00:29:05,125
a birthday anniversary.

781
00:29:05,744 --> 00:29:06,625
14%,

782
00:29:06,625 --> 00:29:07,380
name of a pet.

783
00:29:07,940 --> 00:29:08,819
11%,

784
00:29:08,819 --> 00:29:11,299
part of their own name. 11%, a family

785
00:29:11,299 --> 00:29:12,119
member's name.

786
00:29:13,299 --> 00:29:16,099
Again, 8% that knew that their password's been

787
00:29:16,099 --> 00:29:18,740
compromised. A previous or current street address, 6

788
00:29:18,740 --> 00:29:21,000
Percent. My child's name, 6%.

789
00:29:21,299 --> 00:29:22,744
A common sequence, one, sequence, one, two, three,

790
00:29:22,744 --> 00:29:24,284
four, five, six, 5%.

791
00:29:25,865 --> 00:29:28,585
The word password, 3%. A college or professional

792
00:29:28,585 --> 00:29:29,964
sports team, 3%.

793
00:29:32,904 --> 00:29:34,664
None of these, 23%

794
00:29:34,664 --> 00:29:36,924
and prefer not to say 17%.

795
00:29:37,159 --> 00:29:39,019
Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

796
00:29:40,279 --> 00:29:41,799
As a listener of the show, I know

797
00:29:41,799 --> 00:29:44,059
you are not doing this. There's no way.

798
00:29:46,359 --> 00:29:48,679
Matter of fact, I'm I'm meeting with, my

799
00:29:48,679 --> 00:29:51,085
team members today, and we're talking about all

800
00:29:51,085 --> 00:29:52,924
of the different services we use. And are

801
00:29:52,924 --> 00:29:55,325
we using two factor authentication? Are we are

802
00:29:55,325 --> 00:29:57,085
you using passkey? Or, you know, what are

803
00:29:57,085 --> 00:29:57,744
we using?

804
00:29:58,205 --> 00:30:00,125
And make sure that we're, you know, keeping

805
00:30:00,125 --> 00:30:01,105
things locked down.

806
00:30:04,059 --> 00:30:05,820
And, you know, we felt pretty good coming

807
00:30:05,820 --> 00:30:07,180
out of that, but it just I'm just

808
00:30:07,180 --> 00:30:09,200
always, like, nervous about it.

809
00:30:12,299 --> 00:30:15,019
Your, my, and everyone else's least favorite browser

810
00:30:15,019 --> 00:30:17,119
finally added a proper password manager.

811
00:30:19,845 --> 00:30:23,204
Yeah. Microsoft Edge has introduced a new password

812
00:30:23,204 --> 00:30:24,964
management feature. The tool is available as part

813
00:30:24,964 --> 00:30:27,305
of Microsoft three Microsoft three sixty five.

814
00:30:27,845 --> 00:30:29,525
So if you're an Edge user, you've got

815
00:30:29,525 --> 00:30:31,445
one built in. So admins now have more

816
00:30:31,445 --> 00:30:32,984
control over users' credentials.

817
00:30:35,940 --> 00:30:36,440
So

818
00:30:39,140 --> 00:30:41,160
credential leaking is always an issue.

819
00:30:41,940 --> 00:30:42,759
So, yes,

820
00:30:43,619 --> 00:30:46,100
Edge now has a a password manager. Even

821
00:30:46,100 --> 00:30:48,695
Chrome has a password manager. It's not super

822
00:30:48,695 --> 00:30:51,035
great, but it might be better than nothing.

823
00:30:52,615 --> 00:30:54,455
Hackers claim a 64,000,000

824
00:30:54,455 --> 00:30:56,775
leaked T Mobile records, but it denies it

825
00:30:56,775 --> 00:30:57,994
denies the breach.

826
00:30:58,855 --> 00:31:01,095
And here's what customers need to know that

827
00:31:01,095 --> 00:31:03,015
they've said they've stolen a fresh batch of

828
00:31:03,015 --> 00:31:03,674
T Mobile

829
00:31:04,190 --> 00:31:06,849
customer data. What did they say they got?

830
00:31:08,829 --> 00:31:12,029
Records includes names, email addresses, phone numbers, and

831
00:31:12,029 --> 00:31:12,930
other PII.

832
00:31:14,190 --> 00:31:16,269
I don't consider my name, email, or phone

833
00:31:16,269 --> 00:31:18,589
number PII. But if you have my Social

834
00:31:18,589 --> 00:31:21,345
Security out there, that's definitely PII.

835
00:31:21,644 --> 00:31:23,565
But my Social Security has been leaked so

836
00:31:23,565 --> 00:31:24,625
many other times.

837
00:31:25,964 --> 00:31:27,964
You know, we really look. Right? We go

838
00:31:27,964 --> 00:31:30,525
through every, like, every three months. Do we

839
00:31:30,525 --> 00:31:32,684
need this data from our customers? What do

840
00:31:32,684 --> 00:31:34,929
we not need? And trying to narrow and

841
00:31:34,929 --> 00:31:36,929
narrow and narrow the amount of data we

842
00:31:36,929 --> 00:31:37,429
hold.

843
00:31:39,250 --> 00:31:40,849
I'd love to have more data, but I

844
00:31:40,849 --> 00:31:43,009
don't wanna hold any more data. I really

845
00:31:43,009 --> 00:31:43,509
don't.

846
00:31:45,890 --> 00:31:46,549
You know

847
00:31:47,490 --> 00:31:49,875
you know, it's like even having the ZIP

848
00:31:49,875 --> 00:31:52,035
code, I don't like, but we have to

849
00:31:52,035 --> 00:31:53,654
because of credit card charges.

850
00:31:54,115 --> 00:31:55,875
So it's just some stuff out there we

851
00:31:55,875 --> 00:31:57,634
have to hold it, but, you know, we

852
00:31:57,634 --> 00:31:59,015
make sure that is, like,

853
00:31:59,555 --> 00:32:00,055
give

854
00:32:00,589 --> 00:32:01,890
given the top attention.

855
00:32:04,910 --> 00:32:06,289
Those of you that have Rokus,

856
00:32:06,990 --> 00:32:09,390
apparently, there's gonna be some update. If your

857
00:32:09,390 --> 00:32:12,210
home screen changes, it's because you're special.

858
00:32:13,325 --> 00:32:13,724
And,

859
00:32:14,365 --> 00:32:15,664
the the new homepage

860
00:32:16,125 --> 00:32:18,065
makes key sections faster to find,

861
00:32:18,365 --> 00:32:20,365
and it's apparently a work in progress and

862
00:32:20,365 --> 00:32:22,285
likely to change again, and you can opt

863
00:32:22,285 --> 00:32:24,545
out if you if you're offered the update.

864
00:32:25,325 --> 00:32:27,904
And, I don't get into Roku too much.

865
00:32:29,429 --> 00:32:32,950
My Sony TV has interface. I use Amazon

866
00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:34,569
Fire TVs a lot.

867
00:32:35,750 --> 00:32:38,149
Don't use my Roku a lot anymore, but

868
00:32:38,149 --> 00:32:38,970
all my TCL

869
00:32:39,990 --> 00:32:41,750
TVs like the one directly in front of

870
00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:44,485
me are technically Rokos in disguise, but I

871
00:32:44,485 --> 00:32:45,545
just use it for

872
00:32:45,924 --> 00:32:46,744
screen repeating.

873
00:32:48,884 --> 00:32:49,384
Kia

874
00:32:49,765 --> 00:32:52,105
has a new small affordable electric car.

875
00:32:53,445 --> 00:32:54,585
Thought I pulled something.

876
00:32:55,125 --> 00:32:56,404
The 2024

877
00:32:56,565 --> 00:32:57,900
the 2026

878
00:32:58,140 --> 00:33:00,299
e v four sedan, and it looks kinda

879
00:33:00,299 --> 00:33:00,799
nice.

880
00:33:02,059 --> 00:33:03,980
The sedan goes on sale in The US

881
00:33:03,980 --> 00:33:06,220
towards the end of the year, again, called

882
00:33:06,220 --> 00:33:07,519
the e v four.

883
00:33:08,380 --> 00:33:09,900
I do about 330

884
00:33:09,900 --> 00:33:11,519
miles on a charge,

885
00:33:12,394 --> 00:33:14,255
but I have not yet found

886
00:33:14,875 --> 00:33:17,194
the price on it. They go through and

887
00:33:17,194 --> 00:33:18,654
talk a lot about it,

888
00:33:19,194 --> 00:33:20,255
how it's efficient,

889
00:33:20,794 --> 00:33:21,615
and they're gonna

890
00:33:21,994 --> 00:33:22,494
it's

891
00:33:23,355 --> 00:33:25,194
do they give a price? I just keep

892
00:33:25,194 --> 00:33:26,015
going here.

893
00:33:27,980 --> 00:33:30,940
And a lot of copying from Tesla and

894
00:33:30,940 --> 00:33:31,440
others.

895
00:33:33,740 --> 00:33:36,059
Okay. The car is gonna wow. So it's

896
00:33:36,059 --> 00:33:39,200
gonna be between 37 and 39,000.

897
00:33:45,134 --> 00:33:46,434
So still a lot

898
00:33:46,975 --> 00:33:47,875
for a sedan.

899
00:33:50,255 --> 00:33:51,955
That's the standard range.

900
00:33:52,335 --> 00:33:54,869
So is it what's the standard range difference?

901
00:33:56,069 --> 00:33:58,089
And so it'll probably be 45,000

902
00:33:58,230 --> 00:33:58,730
for,

903
00:34:00,789 --> 00:34:02,950
you know, for the extended range and whatever

904
00:34:02,950 --> 00:34:03,849
that may be.

905
00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:05,190
So,

906
00:34:05,589 --> 00:34:07,095
Kia EV four.

907
00:34:08,534 --> 00:34:11,094
Apparently, WhatsApp is gonna start showing more adverts

908
00:34:11,094 --> 00:34:13,335
in the messaging app, and, I just that

909
00:34:14,295 --> 00:34:16,215
there's some apps that I've had on my

910
00:34:16,215 --> 00:34:17,914
phone that had become completely

911
00:34:18,375 --> 00:34:18,875
useless.

912
00:34:20,710 --> 00:34:23,210
Kick was an app I used for years,

913
00:34:23,670 --> 00:34:24,570
piece of junk.

914
00:34:26,469 --> 00:34:28,890
And there's other apps that are throwing in

915
00:34:29,910 --> 00:34:30,410
advertising.

916
00:34:31,349 --> 00:34:31,849
And

917
00:34:32,630 --> 00:34:34,809
if it starts throwing a lot of apps,

918
00:34:35,030 --> 00:34:37,025
I'm just gonna be

919
00:34:38,125 --> 00:34:38,944
be pissed.

920
00:34:39,324 --> 00:34:39,724
I might

921
00:34:40,444 --> 00:34:42,304
you know, I use WhatsApp enough.

922
00:34:43,324 --> 00:34:44,464
I might

923
00:34:47,164 --> 00:34:50,369
be empowered to pay for no apps using

924
00:34:50,369 --> 00:34:50,869
WhatsApp.

925
00:34:53,570 --> 00:34:55,730
In Asia, that's how I talk to my

926
00:34:55,730 --> 00:34:57,809
employees. I talk to it's it's how we

927
00:34:57,809 --> 00:34:58,630
all communicate,

928
00:35:02,035 --> 00:35:03,554
you know, and it depends on where you're

929
00:35:03,554 --> 00:35:05,494
at in Asia. Some folks use line.

930
00:35:06,675 --> 00:35:09,235
So, yeah, if if I start getting adverts

931
00:35:09,235 --> 00:35:12,775
in WhatsApp, it's gonna it's gonna really be

932
00:35:12,835 --> 00:35:13,335
negative.

933
00:35:14,355 --> 00:35:16,434
And the Android 16 glitch is making some

934
00:35:16,434 --> 00:35:18,510
Pixel phones a pain to navigate.

935
00:35:19,210 --> 00:35:21,769
Even simple swipes and tabs are not playing

936
00:35:21,769 --> 00:35:22,269
nice.

937
00:35:22,730 --> 00:35:25,289
So, here's what you you really need to

938
00:35:25,289 --> 00:35:27,949
know about this, and it's typically three things

939
00:35:28,409 --> 00:35:29,085
or two things.

940
00:35:29,565 --> 00:35:31,644
Some Pixel eight Pro owners are reporting delays

941
00:35:31,644 --> 00:35:33,405
up to thirty seconds to just swipe or

942
00:35:33,405 --> 00:35:35,905
go back, meanwhile Pixel nine Pro XL owners

943
00:35:36,284 --> 00:35:38,445
are saying the swipe up gesture is just

944
00:35:38,445 --> 00:35:39,505
not even working.

945
00:35:40,445 --> 00:35:42,605
So a number of folks are seeing this.

946
00:35:42,605 --> 00:35:44,789
So if you're on an older phone and

947
00:35:44,789 --> 00:35:46,950
you have Android 16, be aware that these,

948
00:35:47,349 --> 00:35:47,849
glitches

949
00:35:48,390 --> 00:35:50,170
are are avail are happening.

950
00:35:50,869 --> 00:35:52,869
NASA has teamed up with India, and I

951
00:35:52,869 --> 00:35:54,969
didn't know that they this is kinda surprising

952
00:35:55,030 --> 00:35:55,690
to me.

953
00:35:56,765 --> 00:35:57,425
They're launching

954
00:35:57,805 --> 00:35:58,465
a satellite

955
00:35:58,844 --> 00:36:00,704
on an Indian rocket.

956
00:36:02,285 --> 00:36:02,785
So

957
00:36:04,125 --> 00:36:07,085
this is the India Satish Dowan Space Center,

958
00:36:07,085 --> 00:36:08,545
was gonna launch this.

959
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:10,500
It's called the NISAR,

960
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,599
n I s a r satellite. What really

961
00:36:13,599 --> 00:36:14,340
got me

962
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:16,500
interested in this

963
00:36:18,559 --> 00:36:20,640
those of you may have heard me talk

964
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,059
in the past about synthetic aperture radar.

965
00:36:24,054 --> 00:36:24,375
And,

966
00:36:25,094 --> 00:36:27,114
I I would just say personally,

967
00:36:27,735 --> 00:36:30,054
I know a hell of a lot about

968
00:36:30,054 --> 00:36:31,515
synthetic aperture radar.

969
00:36:32,054 --> 00:36:32,875
I've known,

970
00:36:33,494 --> 00:36:35,675
I mean, like, for a very long time.

971
00:36:37,289 --> 00:36:38,750
I, at one time,

972
00:36:39,929 --> 00:36:41,929
me and a couple other people were the

973
00:36:41,929 --> 00:36:42,429
foremost

974
00:36:44,570 --> 00:36:45,070
knowledgeable

975
00:36:47,289 --> 00:36:47,789
operators

976
00:36:48,170 --> 00:36:50,190
of synthetic aperture radar.

977
00:36:51,775 --> 00:36:52,275
And,

978
00:36:53,295 --> 00:36:54,434
I have literally,

979
00:36:55,215 --> 00:36:55,715
literally

980
00:36:56,574 --> 00:36:57,074
saw

981
00:36:57,614 --> 00:37:00,914
tens of thousands of synthetic aperture radar images.

982
00:37:04,750 --> 00:37:06,050
It's a topic I

983
00:37:06,829 --> 00:37:09,250
know very, very, very, very, very well.

984
00:37:11,630 --> 00:37:13,710
So weighing almost three tons and boasting 12

985
00:37:13,710 --> 00:37:16,190
meter radar dish, The US 1,500,000,000

986
00:37:16,190 --> 00:37:17,170
NISAR satellite

987
00:37:18,430 --> 00:37:20,905
will track ground under our feet and water

988
00:37:20,905 --> 00:37:23,164
that flows over and through it in unprecedented

989
00:37:23,625 --> 00:37:24,125
detail.

990
00:37:24,824 --> 00:37:25,324
Now

991
00:37:27,464 --> 00:37:30,045
there are conditions for this, of course.

992
00:37:30,744 --> 00:37:33,224
And a good thing about synthetic aperture radar,

993
00:37:33,224 --> 00:37:34,045
it's almost

994
00:37:34,539 --> 00:37:36,799
in it's it can penetrate clouds.

995
00:37:37,420 --> 00:37:39,199
It's an all weather type

996
00:37:40,299 --> 00:37:40,880
of system.

997
00:37:42,859 --> 00:37:43,359
And,

998
00:37:45,819 --> 00:37:48,344
so this thing will work. Doesn't matter. Day

999
00:37:48,344 --> 00:37:49,085
or night.

1000
00:37:52,905 --> 00:37:54,985
The NISAR is a collaboration between the National

1001
00:37:54,985 --> 00:37:55,965
Space Agencies

1002
00:37:56,265 --> 00:37:58,525
of the United States and India SRO,

1003
00:37:59,065 --> 00:38:01,550
and they've overcome these challenges by using synthetic

1004
00:38:01,769 --> 00:38:04,269
aperture radar to take images of the Earth.

1005
00:38:05,210 --> 00:38:06,989
So what is SAR?

1006
00:38:08,090 --> 00:38:10,570
For military use, it's been used for military.

1007
00:38:10,570 --> 00:38:13,130
Rather than using reflected sunlight to passively image

1008
00:38:13,130 --> 00:38:14,430
the Earth's surface, SAR

1009
00:38:15,450 --> 00:38:17,875
SAR works by actively beaming a radar signal

1010
00:38:17,875 --> 00:38:20,694
towards the surface and detected the reflected signal.

1011
00:38:21,795 --> 00:38:23,954
Think of this as using a a flash

1012
00:38:23,954 --> 00:38:25,734
to take a photo in a dark room.

1013
00:38:27,394 --> 00:38:29,610
Flash flash flash flash flash flash at the

1014
00:38:29,610 --> 00:38:30,349
speed of

1015
00:38:30,890 --> 00:38:31,390
light.

1016
00:38:31,930 --> 00:38:33,690
This means SAR can take images of Earth's

1017
00:38:33,690 --> 00:38:35,710
surface both during the day and night,

1018
00:38:36,650 --> 00:38:37,150
and

1019
00:38:39,050 --> 00:38:40,430
it gives you a very

1020
00:38:40,970 --> 00:38:44,305
interesting image. Now, depending on your angle of

1021
00:38:44,305 --> 00:38:44,805
attack

1022
00:38:45,344 --> 00:38:46,805
and what you can see,

1023
00:38:47,985 --> 00:38:49,664
and there's different types of SAR and the

1024
00:38:49,664 --> 00:38:51,664
way it works and how it, you know,

1025
00:38:51,664 --> 00:38:53,605
it's how the frequencies are.

1026
00:38:54,305 --> 00:38:56,144
And this image that I'm seeing here of

1027
00:38:56,144 --> 00:38:57,125
NISAR data,

1028
00:38:57,900 --> 00:38:59,280
The beauty about this

1029
00:38:59,980 --> 00:39:01,119
is it's very

1030
00:39:01,900 --> 00:39:02,400
accurate.

1031
00:39:03,579 --> 00:39:05,659
Very accurate. They said it's accurate to an

1032
00:39:05,659 --> 00:39:06,159
inch.

1033
00:39:06,780 --> 00:39:09,599
Now that's impressive. So let's say,

1034
00:39:11,179 --> 00:39:14,054
you wanna see what's happening with, erosion

1035
00:39:15,315 --> 00:39:16,855
or water levels,

1036
00:39:17,795 --> 00:39:19,635
all kinds of data like this that you

1037
00:39:19,635 --> 00:39:20,375
can detect

1038
00:39:20,835 --> 00:39:21,335
changes,

1039
00:39:23,875 --> 00:39:25,094
to to the surface.

1040
00:39:26,940 --> 00:39:29,500
Now I don't know how this satellite orbits

1041
00:39:29,500 --> 00:39:30,000
work,

1042
00:39:30,460 --> 00:39:32,460
but there are some interesting things that can

1043
00:39:32,460 --> 00:39:35,119
be done if you image the same location

1044
00:39:35,260 --> 00:39:36,719
twice from the same position,

1045
00:39:37,260 --> 00:39:39,420
all kinds of very cool stuff. Now it

1046
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:41,920
we'll be able to provide high resolution images

1047
00:39:42,344 --> 00:39:44,585
of almost all land and ice surfaces around

1048
00:39:44,585 --> 00:39:46,204
the globe every twelve days.

1049
00:39:46,664 --> 00:39:48,764
Now let me tell you, that's a hell

1050
00:39:48,984 --> 00:39:50,125
a lot of data.

1051
00:39:50,585 --> 00:39:51,085
Hella

1052
00:39:51,385 --> 00:39:51,885
data.

1053
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,239
The NICER satellite will use to monitor forest

1054
00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:58,860
biomass. Its ability to penetrate

1055
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,719
vegetation, detect water, will also allow it to

1056
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,500
accurately map flooded vegetation.

1057
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,160
Satellite will be able to detect changes in

1058
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,239
the height of Earth's surface of a few

1059
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:10,454
cent what what?

1060
00:40:10,934 --> 00:40:12,535
The site will be able to detect change

1061
00:40:12,535 --> 00:40:13,974
in the height of the Earth's surface a

1062
00:40:13,974 --> 00:40:15,835
few centimeters or even millimeters

1063
00:40:16,375 --> 00:40:17,835
because change in height

1064
00:40:18,375 --> 00:40:21,094
creates tiny shifts in the reflected radar signal,

1065
00:40:21,094 --> 00:40:23,309
AKA bounce time to get back and forth

1066
00:40:23,789 --> 00:40:25,869
and more more tech there's a little more

1067
00:40:25,869 --> 00:40:27,329
tech to it than that, but,

1068
00:40:30,110 --> 00:40:31,070
be able to track,

1069
00:40:31,869 --> 00:40:33,630
dam heights and a whole bunch of other

1070
00:40:33,630 --> 00:40:34,130
stuff.

1071
00:40:35,789 --> 00:40:36,289
Now

1072
00:40:37,230 --> 00:40:38,684
I will say this,

1073
00:40:39,724 --> 00:40:42,305
depending on the type of technology they use

1074
00:40:44,204 --> 00:40:46,305
and the wavelength and everything else,

1075
00:40:47,085 --> 00:40:48,625
movement is not good.

1076
00:40:50,364 --> 00:40:52,809
AKA, the anything on the ground moving

1077
00:40:53,670 --> 00:40:55,670
as an image is being taken is not

1078
00:40:55,670 --> 00:40:58,010
good. It's perfectly when there's no wind,

1079
00:40:59,030 --> 00:41:00,730
when there's no vehicles moving,

1080
00:41:01,670 --> 00:41:04,695
when everything is absolutely still, that's the best

1081
00:41:04,695 --> 00:41:05,195
time

1082
00:41:05,575 --> 00:41:06,555
to get an image.

1083
00:41:07,494 --> 00:41:10,215
So there's filtering technology that can be done,

1084
00:41:10,215 --> 00:41:12,375
of course. So I'm gonna be interested to

1085
00:41:12,375 --> 00:41:14,615
see what this data looks like, to be

1086
00:41:14,615 --> 00:41:17,449
honest with you. And it get all good

1087
00:41:17,449 --> 00:41:19,529
depends again down to resolution. But if they're

1088
00:41:19,529 --> 00:41:21,549
saying they can measure changes in inches,

1089
00:41:21,929 --> 00:41:23,869
okay, but inches of what,

1090
00:41:24,489 --> 00:41:26,489
you know, what's what's a pixel on that?

1091
00:41:26,489 --> 00:41:28,589
If it's if it's looking at an image,

1092
00:41:28,730 --> 00:41:30,914
that pixel might be a 100 a 100

1093
00:41:30,914 --> 00:41:31,894
square feet

1094
00:41:32,275 --> 00:41:35,175
or larger. So whatever the pixel size is,

1095
00:41:35,954 --> 00:41:38,275
so, you know, the less if you're looking

1096
00:41:38,275 --> 00:41:40,355
at if if one image takes a 100

1097
00:41:40,434 --> 00:41:42,295
but 100 miles by a 100 miles,

1098
00:41:42,994 --> 00:41:45,335
well, I can guarantee you the pixel density,

1099
00:41:45,789 --> 00:41:48,190
even if it's a four k image, is

1100
00:41:48,190 --> 00:41:50,049
one pixel is still gonna be,

1101
00:41:50,509 --> 00:41:52,210
you know, a certain amount of

1102
00:41:52,670 --> 00:41:55,150
of land distance or some other some amount

1103
00:41:55,150 --> 00:41:56,529
of distance in the pixel.

1104
00:41:57,549 --> 00:41:58,049
So

1105
00:41:58,989 --> 00:42:01,414
very, very curious. It really, really is.

1106
00:42:04,195 --> 00:42:05,175
Yeah. I

1107
00:42:06,914 --> 00:42:08,135
taught a lot of people,

1108
00:42:09,474 --> 00:42:10,934
synthetic aperture radar.

1109
00:42:11,795 --> 00:42:15,390
Well, Martin's is bringing drone deliveries to, to

1110
00:42:15,390 --> 00:42:16,369
three more states.

1111
00:42:18,190 --> 00:42:19,890
So they're gonna bring,

1112
00:42:20,750 --> 00:42:22,849
delivery option a 100 stores in Atlanta,

1113
00:42:23,630 --> 00:42:24,045
Charlotte,

1114
00:42:24,924 --> 00:42:27,744
Houston, Orlando, Tampa within the coming year.

1115
00:42:28,605 --> 00:42:29,105
And,

1116
00:42:29,565 --> 00:42:31,644
this is gonna make five states now, Arkansas,

1117
00:42:31,644 --> 00:42:34,364
Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Dallas, Fort Worth

1118
00:42:34,364 --> 00:42:34,864
area.

1119
00:42:35,644 --> 00:42:37,264
The drum wrappers will have an,

1120
00:42:37,804 --> 00:42:39,905
six mile range from stores.

1121
00:42:41,059 --> 00:42:41,539
So,

1122
00:42:41,940 --> 00:42:43,400
again, coming to

1123
00:42:43,699 --> 00:42:44,199
Walmart,

1124
00:42:44,579 --> 00:42:45,559
not Amazon.

1125
00:42:45,860 --> 00:42:46,360
Walmart.

1126
00:42:48,579 --> 00:42:51,059
Everyone's worried about the macOS and and what's

1127
00:42:51,059 --> 00:42:53,140
gonna happen with the iPad, but Apple explains

1128
00:42:53,140 --> 00:42:55,219
it will never let its tablets become full

1129
00:42:55,219 --> 00:42:55,635
Macs.

1130
00:42:58,195 --> 00:42:58,695
So

1131
00:43:00,034 --> 00:43:00,534
WWC,

1132
00:43:01,074 --> 00:43:02,934
some of the iPadOS 26,

1133
00:43:03,554 --> 00:43:05,715
a bunch of Mac like features, but they

1134
00:43:05,715 --> 00:43:08,909
were not Macs. They have Mac like

1135
00:43:09,949 --> 00:43:13,010
features. And macOS Tahoe isn't designed for tablets,

1136
00:43:14,989 --> 00:43:17,150
but Apple is happy to borrow ideas from

1137
00:43:17,150 --> 00:43:19,549
each platform. So it's it's gonna look and

1138
00:43:19,549 --> 00:43:21,969
kinda feel the same, but not be

1139
00:43:22,269 --> 00:43:23,010
the same.

1140
00:43:24,965 --> 00:43:26,425
Google Cloud had an outage.

1141
00:43:27,204 --> 00:43:29,045
The outage struck last Thursday and meant that

1142
00:43:29,045 --> 00:43:31,144
Google Cloud customers could not access

1143
00:43:31,605 --> 00:43:34,164
their rented infrastructure for at least three hours.

1144
00:43:34,164 --> 00:43:34,664
Wow.

1145
00:43:35,445 --> 00:43:37,065
Among the customers impacted

1146
00:43:37,844 --> 00:43:39,224
by the event was CloudFlare.

1147
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,099
So, yeah, a lot of people had outages,

1148
00:43:43,039 --> 00:43:43,280
and,

1149
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,059
we did not.

1150
00:43:47,119 --> 00:43:50,719
We run, almost exclusive on Amazon services, and

1151
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:51,460
we use

1152
00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:54,684
a little Cloud Fair stuff for some things

1153
00:43:56,105 --> 00:43:57,485
but not see a problem.

1154
00:43:58,105 --> 00:44:00,585
Amazon, as in Roku, set landmark pack giving

1155
00:44:00,585 --> 00:44:03,485
brands access to 80% of connected TV households.

1156
00:44:03,945 --> 00:44:06,204
I'm telling you, Roku needs money.

1157
00:44:07,304 --> 00:44:07,804
And,

1158
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,079
so they're gonna do deals to to drive

1159
00:44:11,079 --> 00:44:11,579
revenue,

1160
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,059
and they're gonna tie it into the Amazon

1161
00:44:14,519 --> 00:44:15,500
demand side

1162
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:17,420
platform, DSP.

1163
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,599
It's a term in podcasting. I know a

1164
00:44:20,599 --> 00:44:23,579
lot. DSPs. Oh, we're tied into 23 DSPs,

1165
00:44:24,515 --> 00:44:25,655
22 DSPs.

1166
00:44:26,195 --> 00:44:27,335
We're adding DSPs.

1167
00:44:30,114 --> 00:44:32,275
But any anyway, what that means is more

1168
00:44:32,275 --> 00:44:33,414
ads for the Roku.

1169
00:44:35,315 --> 00:44:38,704
So police seized a a drug marketplace. So

1170
00:44:40,089 --> 00:44:42,569
So law enforcement authorities from six countries took

1171
00:44:42,569 --> 00:44:44,269
down the arch type market,

1172
00:44:44,889 --> 00:44:45,949
an a darknet

1173
00:44:46,250 --> 00:44:48,829
drug market that's been operating since 2020.

1174
00:44:49,690 --> 00:44:52,250
And the market customers gave gave them access

1175
00:44:52,250 --> 00:44:55,230
to high values of drugs, including coke, amphetamine,

1176
00:44:55,844 --> 00:44:56,344
amphetamines,

1177
00:44:56,804 --> 00:44:57,784
heroin, cannabis,

1178
00:44:58,324 --> 00:44:58,824
MDMA,

1179
00:44:59,445 --> 00:45:02,324
and synthetic opioids like fentanyl through more than

1180
00:45:02,324 --> 00:45:03,204
3,200

1181
00:45:03,204 --> 00:45:04,425
registered vendors.

1182
00:45:05,125 --> 00:45:05,625
Wow.

1183
00:45:06,085 --> 00:45:08,644
Over its five years activity, the marketplace amassed

1184
00:45:08,644 --> 00:45:10,025
612,000

1185
00:45:10,085 --> 00:45:10,585
users.

1186
00:45:11,550 --> 00:45:13,250
So how how does this work?

1187
00:45:14,590 --> 00:45:16,349
You go on there and and you buy

1188
00:45:16,349 --> 00:45:17,410
your drug of choice.

1189
00:45:17,869 --> 00:45:19,410
Do they ship it to you?

1190
00:45:19,950 --> 00:45:22,269
Do you make did meat in the dark

1191
00:45:22,269 --> 00:45:23,894
of night? How does this all work

1192
00:45:25,335 --> 00:45:27,735
As part of this joint action code named

1193
00:45:27,735 --> 00:45:29,894
Operation Deep Sentinel led by German police and

1194
00:45:29,894 --> 00:45:31,034
supported by Europol,

1195
00:45:32,135 --> 00:45:34,054
an investigation in The Netherlands took down the

1196
00:45:34,054 --> 00:45:36,375
marketplace infrastructure with a 30 year old German

1197
00:45:36,375 --> 00:45:38,235
national inspector being the administrator,

1198
00:45:38,930 --> 00:45:40,550
and he, has been arrested.

1199
00:45:42,450 --> 00:45:46,289
In total, law enforcement sees 40 wow. 47

1200
00:45:46,289 --> 00:45:48,070
smartphones, 45 computers,

1201
00:45:48,610 --> 00:45:53,110
narcotics and assets worth €78,000,000.

1202
00:45:53,755 --> 00:45:54,255
Wow.

1203
00:46:00,074 --> 00:46:02,574
They arrested a 270

1204
00:46:02,715 --> 00:46:05,614
says suspects following international joint action

1205
00:46:06,554 --> 00:46:08,255
that was going after the vendors.

1206
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,920
So police in Europe, South America, Asia, United

1207
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,079
States also seized more than two tons of

1208
00:46:15,079 --> 00:46:15,579
drugs,

1209
00:46:16,599 --> 00:46:19,099
again, including amphetamines, cocaine, ketamine,

1210
00:46:19,559 --> 00:46:23,224
opioids, cannabis, and over a 184,000,000

1211
00:46:23,525 --> 00:46:24,885
or 207,000,000

1212
00:46:24,885 --> 00:46:27,144
US dollars in cash and cryptocurrency

1213
00:46:27,445 --> 00:46:29,864
and over, oh, yes, a 180 firearms.

1214
00:46:30,485 --> 00:46:32,425
Where there are drugs, there are firearms.

1215
00:46:33,845 --> 00:46:34,345
So

1216
00:46:35,364 --> 00:46:36,184
so another

1217
00:46:36,539 --> 00:46:38,079
dark net drug place

1218
00:46:38,619 --> 00:46:39,360
shut down,

1219
00:46:40,380 --> 00:46:42,239
but, it's been running for

1220
00:46:42,539 --> 00:46:43,920
nearly five years.

1221
00:46:45,260 --> 00:46:47,519
You know, anything like that is, you know,

1222
00:46:47,660 --> 00:46:50,085
is just it's gonna get busted at some

1223
00:46:50,085 --> 00:46:51,224
point for sure.

1224
00:46:56,405 --> 00:46:59,204
One thing that, again, I wanna talk about

1225
00:46:59,204 --> 00:47:01,065
here just a little bit as we getting

1226
00:47:01,684 --> 00:47:03,945
getting near the end of the show. AI

1227
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,460
isn't taking your job for now,

1228
00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:09,920
but the big threat, I agree, is a

1229
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:11,300
growing skills gap.

1230
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,460
AI talent remains scarce,

1231
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,605
and we've been talking about this a lot

1232
00:47:19,844 --> 00:47:21,925
by my team. We talked about this morning

1233
00:47:21,925 --> 00:47:23,465
when I had my morning meeting.

1234
00:47:23,844 --> 00:47:26,885
I want everyone engaged using tools, finding out

1235
00:47:26,885 --> 00:47:28,344
what works, what doesn't,

1236
00:47:28,804 --> 00:47:30,184
and putting some time

1237
00:47:30,565 --> 00:47:33,465
each week into testing tools, even my coders.

1238
00:47:34,610 --> 00:47:36,210
And, you know, like, you know, my coders

1239
00:47:36,210 --> 00:47:36,710
are

1240
00:47:37,410 --> 00:47:37,910
worried,

1241
00:47:38,369 --> 00:47:41,570
but I I I'm I'm not worried right

1242
00:47:41,570 --> 00:47:43,510
now. But what I want is

1243
00:47:44,369 --> 00:47:44,869
efficiency,

1244
00:47:45,730 --> 00:47:46,855
more efficiency.

1245
00:47:47,394 --> 00:47:49,734
If we can gain efficiency through AI,

1246
00:47:51,635 --> 00:47:53,795
it makes projects get done faster, makes the

1247
00:47:53,795 --> 00:47:55,094
teamwork more efficient.

1248
00:47:55,394 --> 00:47:57,414
We get better product, maybe.

1249
00:47:58,674 --> 00:48:00,755
That's really all it's all about. So if

1250
00:48:00,755 --> 00:48:01,894
you're not doing

1251
00:48:02,329 --> 00:48:03,869
any AI stuff at work,

1252
00:48:04,329 --> 00:48:06,570
if you're working a job that does not

1253
00:48:06,570 --> 00:48:07,550
require AI,

1254
00:48:09,130 --> 00:48:10,190
hedge your bets.

1255
00:48:11,210 --> 00:48:13,309
Please hedge your bets and

1256
00:48:13,610 --> 00:48:14,510
get a ChatGPT

1257
00:48:14,809 --> 00:48:15,585
free account.

1258
00:48:16,144 --> 00:48:18,644
Go and play with it. Ask it questions.

1259
00:48:18,784 --> 00:48:21,184
Help it help you in your general day

1260
00:48:21,184 --> 00:48:23,984
to day life. Have it tested against data

1261
00:48:23,984 --> 00:48:24,885
that you have.

1262
00:48:25,505 --> 00:48:27,984
It's really super critical. There's lots of cool

1263
00:48:27,984 --> 00:48:28,484
things

1264
00:48:28,820 --> 00:48:30,179
that it can do that I think a

1265
00:48:30,179 --> 00:48:32,179
lot of people don't know. I'm learning new

1266
00:48:32,179 --> 00:48:33,239
stuff every

1267
00:48:34,340 --> 00:48:36,440
day. But a survey, 40,000

1268
00:48:37,059 --> 00:48:39,940
employers in 42 countries found that 74%

1269
00:48:39,940 --> 00:48:40,679
of employees

1270
00:48:41,219 --> 00:48:41,719
still

1271
00:48:42,019 --> 00:48:42,519
struggle.

1272
00:48:43,059 --> 00:48:43,559
Employers

1273
00:48:44,344 --> 00:48:46,284
still struggle to find skilled talent

1274
00:48:46,664 --> 00:48:49,385
with only 16% of execs confident in their

1275
00:48:49,385 --> 00:48:51,005
tech teams and 60%

1276
00:48:51,545 --> 00:48:53,545
citing the skills gap as a key barrier

1277
00:48:53,545 --> 00:48:54,605
to digital strategies.

1278
00:48:55,784 --> 00:48:57,704
Bain and Co found that forty first percent

1279
00:48:57,704 --> 00:49:00,420
of corporate leaders say limited in house expertise

1280
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:02,179
has slowed AI adoption.

1281
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,579
Be that person in your company

1282
00:49:05,039 --> 00:49:07,059
that figures out a use case.

1283
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,579
Pay and AI skills continue growing

1284
00:49:13,105 --> 00:49:15,684
growing 11% a year since 2019.

1285
00:49:16,785 --> 00:49:19,344
Workers with AI skills such as prompt engineering

1286
00:49:19,344 --> 00:49:21,364
command a 56 wage premium.

1287
00:49:23,184 --> 00:49:26,005
It's really important. I keep saying this,

1288
00:49:26,625 --> 00:49:28,930
and I hope you're listening to me. Read

1289
00:49:28,930 --> 00:49:29,670
this article.

1290
00:49:30,849 --> 00:49:31,349
Again,

1291
00:49:31,650 --> 00:49:33,650
if you're in a job and, you know,

1292
00:49:33,650 --> 00:49:36,530
here I am. Right? I'm looking ahead. When

1293
00:49:36,530 --> 00:49:37,590
do I wanna retire?

1294
00:49:38,610 --> 00:49:40,550
Am I gonna make it before I become

1295
00:49:40,690 --> 00:49:41,190
obsolete?

1296
00:49:41,675 --> 00:49:42,175
No.

1297
00:49:42,635 --> 00:49:45,534
Because I'm staying current. I'm engaging. I'm

1298
00:49:46,074 --> 00:49:48,574
I'm figuring out what works and what doesn't.

1299
00:49:50,074 --> 00:49:50,574
And,

1300
00:49:51,434 --> 00:49:52,655
it's super critical.

1301
00:49:54,315 --> 00:49:56,570
You gotta do it. So, again,

1302
00:49:57,110 --> 00:49:59,349
it's not taking your job, but the threat

1303
00:49:59,349 --> 00:50:01,590
is a growing skills gap. And you don't

1304
00:50:01,590 --> 00:50:03,530
wanna be the one with the skills gap

1305
00:50:03,590 --> 00:50:05,450
when it comes time for

1306
00:50:05,989 --> 00:50:07,130
someone to,

1307
00:50:07,590 --> 00:50:08,730
you know, put in,

1308
00:50:09,074 --> 00:50:09,574
you

1309
00:50:10,034 --> 00:50:11,894
know, basically new policy,

1310
00:50:12,675 --> 00:50:13,974
and you'd be

1311
00:50:14,994 --> 00:50:15,734
no longer

1312
00:50:16,594 --> 00:50:19,094
a valuable contributor to your company.

1313
00:50:20,034 --> 00:50:22,195
