9
00:00:26.839 --> 00:00:30.480
<v Speaker 3>Good morning, Rich, Hey Neil, good morning to you. Thanks

10
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:35.200
<v Speaker 3>for the newsletter plug just past forty five thousand people

11
00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:36.240
<v Speaker 3>getting that newsletter.

12
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:39.280
<v Speaker 4>Started it a couple of years ago, so very exciting.

13
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:41.759
<v Speaker 1>Good on you and no smoke. I really do love it.

14
00:00:41.799 --> 00:00:47.799
<v Speaker 2>And you've become a super resource for me and keeping

15
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:49.719
<v Speaker 2>me up to date with everything and what's going on.

16
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:52.039
<v Speaker 1>And I enjoy the show, of course.

17
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.719
<v Speaker 2>And you've got some stuff going on, including iOS, which

18
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I've been a member of for a long time. iOS

19
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:02.479
<v Speaker 2>eighteen point four came out. I like how you call

20
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:03.600
<v Speaker 2>it that I've been a member of.

21
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:04.239
<v Speaker 4>I like that.

22
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:07.519
<v Speaker 3>It's like I have been a member of the iOS family.

23
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:10.680
<v Speaker 3>A lot of people have, which is interesting because iOS

24
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Speaker 3>has slowly changed over the years.

25
00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:14.560
<v Speaker 4>But it's largely.

26
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:16.719
<v Speaker 3>Remained kind of the same, right, Like, I mean, the

27
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:18.719
<v Speaker 3>iPhone still kind of functions the way it did when

28
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 3>it came out in two thousand and seven, but with

29
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 3>a lot more features. Apparently, by the way, that's getting

30
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:27.959
<v Speaker 3>totally revamped next month. Not next month, in June. We've

31
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.920
<v Speaker 3>got this thing called WWDC coming up, and that's where

32
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:34.040
<v Speaker 3>Apple usually shows off the new software. And apparently the

33
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.480
<v Speaker 3>rumor mill says that iOS nineteen is going to be

34
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:39.680
<v Speaker 3>like a complete revamp, So anyway, stay tuned for that.

35
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:42.239
<v Speaker 3>But today, if you do have an iPhone, they've got

36
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 3>iOS eighteen point four. You might have seen that there's

37
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 3>a software update. So a couple of notable things. Number

38
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:49.879
<v Speaker 3>one is going to use more AI on your phone,

39
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.400
<v Speaker 3>so you can do this thing called priority notifications, which

40
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:56.599
<v Speaker 3>I usually do on the weekends already, where it can

41
00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:59.840
<v Speaker 3>kind of figure out which notifications are actually important, and

42
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:03.719
<v Speaker 3>we'll just surface those first. Let's see what else here.

43
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:05.599
<v Speaker 3>New emojis, of course, I mean those kind of come

44
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:08.599
<v Speaker 3>out all the time in photos. This is the big thing.

45
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.919
<v Speaker 3>When they redesigned the Photos app, people had a lot

46
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 3>of problems trying to find their pictures and things like that.

47
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.319
<v Speaker 3>So now they just kind of revamp that once again

48
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:20.039
<v Speaker 3>to kind of give you some further refinements. So if

49
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.439
<v Speaker 3>you have not done this already and you're having trouble

50
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.439
<v Speaker 3>with your photos and finding them and how they're organized,

51
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 3>open up the photos app, scroll all the way way

52
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 3>to the bottom and where it says customize and reorder,

53
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 3>cap that and get rid of like almost everything except

54
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:38.199
<v Speaker 3>the stuff you need. And you can also reorder the stuff.

55
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:40.960
<v Speaker 3>And I think those will be a nice improvement. And

56
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Speaker 3>by the way, Neil for you, Apple News Plus, if

57
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 3>you're a subscriber, just added this new food section with

58
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:49.879
<v Speaker 3>all kinds of stuff like recipes and a step by

59
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 3>step cook mode. But you do have to be a

60
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:53.360
<v Speaker 3>subscriber to get that.

61
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Numb num numb. I'm on it.

62
00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Hey, So I h listening to you before I went

63
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>to Italy with the handle a couple weeks back, went

64
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.280
<v Speaker 2>and got an e sim through.

65
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>What is it.

66
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:12.159
<v Speaker 4>Arlow Ara Low?

67
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So heard about that on your show and went

68
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:20.240
<v Speaker 2>ahead and did that, and this helped me avoid roaming

69
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:21.479
<v Speaker 2>charges well traveling.

70
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:22.879
<v Speaker 1>What are some of your other tips?

71
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.479
<v Speaker 3>So, I mean, I'm getting a lot of questions about

72
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:28.840
<v Speaker 3>this right now because a lot of people taking trips,

73
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:30.520
<v Speaker 3>but you know people don't want to pay.

74
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 4>You know, it used to be you went.

75
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:35.120
<v Speaker 3>Overseas, you came back with a huge roaming bill. Right,

76
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:38.719
<v Speaker 3>So if you've my number one tip is call your

77
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.639
<v Speaker 3>carrier because a lot of times you may have days

78
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 3>included or even international data included on your plan. So

79
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 3>sometimes if you're on the priciest plan, like the ninety

80
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.680
<v Speaker 3>dollars a month onlimited plan from Verizon or AT and T,

81
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:56.759
<v Speaker 3>they typically give you like a roaming day per month,

82
00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 3>and you kind of bank those. So when I went

83
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.360
<v Speaker 3>to Europe last time, I had like twelve days in

84
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 3>my bank. I didn't have to pay to do anything.

85
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:07.120
<v Speaker 3>I just said, okay, cool, I'll use these twelve days.

86
00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:09.560
<v Speaker 3>So that's my number one tip. If you want to

87
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:12.520
<v Speaker 3>just keep your plan, keep your phone number. Make everything

88
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:16.800
<v Speaker 3>the easiest. The simplest is really just to pay your carrier.

89
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:20.639
<v Speaker 3>And that's AT and t's twelve dollars a day, Verizons

90
00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:23.120
<v Speaker 3>twelve dollars a day, T Mobile. Almost every plan has

91
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:26.000
<v Speaker 3>the roaming included. But if you want faster speeds, you

92
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 3>can pay five dollars a day. Now you mentioned the

93
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 3>e sim I think that's the most value because you

94
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:34.480
<v Speaker 3>buy it from an app, like you said, Aarlow is

95
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:38.000
<v Speaker 3>one of them, Gigsky's another, Saley is another, and you

96
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:40.279
<v Speaker 3>basically activate that from your phone. There is a little

97
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:44.519
<v Speaker 3>caveat if your phone is locked to your carrier. Sometimes

98
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:46.279
<v Speaker 3>they don't allow you to do the ESIMP, so you

99
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:47.759
<v Speaker 3>do have to check to see if your phone is

100
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.519
<v Speaker 3>unlocked before or if your carrier allows that.

101
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:51.600
<v Speaker 4>But that's the most.

102
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 3>Value because you just activate that and you can basically

103
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:57.360
<v Speaker 3>use it all month for like thirty thirty dollars and

104
00:04:57.399 --> 00:04:59.800
<v Speaker 3>if you don't want to make any charges extra on

105
00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:01.959
<v Speaker 3>your bill, be sure to turn off roaming.

106
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:03.319
<v Speaker 4>Be sure to turn.

107
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:06.399
<v Speaker 3>Off all the apps that automatically update, like the photo

108
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:10.160
<v Speaker 3>uploads and the cloud uploads, because you don't want them

109
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.199
<v Speaker 3>to gobble up all of your information. Make sure they're

110
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.639
<v Speaker 3>only set to Wi Fi. And of course you can

111
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:15.920
<v Speaker 3>use Wi Fi hotspots too.

112
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:20.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it worked out nice, So my wife did. She

113
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:23.360
<v Speaker 2>went through her carrier and did it that way, and

114
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I went through having an aim so we had a

115
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:27.720
<v Speaker 2>little of both and it kept us.

116
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:29.759
<v Speaker 3>That's what I did with my wife. Yeah, she didn't

117
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:31.519
<v Speaker 3>want to do anything special. She was like, I just

118
00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:33.480
<v Speaker 3>want to stick to my you know, carrier, and I

119
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:34.720
<v Speaker 3>was like, all right, that's fine, We'll pay the ten

120
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 3>dollars a day for you, you know.

121
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:37.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So we did a little bit of both in

122
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.040
<v Speaker 2>that way. We always had a signal or always had

123
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 2>the ability to do whatever we needed and hopefully no

124
00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:43.639
<v Speaker 2>no major costs in that.

125
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>So Rich Gmail turns twenty one. Do you use Gmail?

126
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:51.519
<v Speaker 4>I do.

127
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:53.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've been using it since day one. Yeah, I

128
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:57.560
<v Speaker 2>love Gmail. I think I think they do an excellent job.

129
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:01.160
<v Speaker 2>And you know, let's hope that they stick around forever

130
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:01.800
<v Speaker 2>and ever and ever.

131
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:03.480
<v Speaker 4>I hope.

132
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:08.639
<v Speaker 3>So I've got forty one gigabytes of stuff in my Gmail.

133
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:10.800
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know what that is. That's twenty one

134
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:11.959
<v Speaker 3>year's worth of emails.

135
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 1>You still have your AOL account somewhere.

136
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.720
<v Speaker 3>I do not have my AOL account. I pretty much

137
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:21.079
<v Speaker 3>was I was a I think I was a Yahoo

138
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.800
<v Speaker 3>guy before Gmail. He always kind of like, you know,

139
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:25.639
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people were using hot mail at the time.

140
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:27.959
<v Speaker 4>Aol was popular.

141
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.079
<v Speaker 3>But they were giving you like a couple megabytes of storage,

142
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:35.399
<v Speaker 3>and Gmail gave you a thousand in counting. And yeah,

143
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.279
<v Speaker 3>it's been been interesting ever since because it kind of

144
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:40.040
<v Speaker 3>changed the way people saw email.

145
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:42.360
<v Speaker 4>You just save stuff forever. You don't have to delete it.

146
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Man, I was like, God, they used to call me

147
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:52.199
<v Speaker 2>boy toy when I was an intern because the male

148
00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:54.480
<v Speaker 2>is because the producer at the time was a female

149
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:56.839
<v Speaker 2>for the Bill Handle show. I was his intern and

150
00:06:56.879 --> 00:06:59.319
<v Speaker 2>she didn't want a girl. Everyone else was guys on

151
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 2>the team. They wanted girl. So they would refer to

152
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:04.759
<v Speaker 2>me as boy toy because she wanted a boy. And

153
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:08.199
<v Speaker 2>so so I think my Aol account might still be around.

154
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:13.399
<v Speaker 2>It was talkboy six forty from back at ninety something.

155
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>AnyWho, what about April Fools today?

156
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:21.399
<v Speaker 2>Any tech stuff going on we should know about?

157
00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:23.000
<v Speaker 4>Well, that's so okay.

158
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:26.000
<v Speaker 3>So the whole Gmail thing, I don't know if you

159
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:29.319
<v Speaker 3>remember this, but it actually launched on April Fool's Day,

160
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:31.720
<v Speaker 3>April first, two thousand and four.

161
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 4>Oh I did over that, that is Yeah.

162
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:36.720
<v Speaker 3>So a lot of people thought that it was a

163
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:39.839
<v Speaker 3>joke when it launched because it was so different than

164
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:41.759
<v Speaker 3>all the email out there, and it was from Google,

165
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:44.759
<v Speaker 3>you know, kind of an upstart back then, and so

166
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:46.600
<v Speaker 3>people were like, wait a second, what is this?

167
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:47.800
<v Speaker 4>Is this real? Is it fake?

168
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:51.800
<v Speaker 3>So Ever since then, tech companies have gotten a little

169
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:53.839
<v Speaker 3>bit more and more elaborate. For many years, they were

170
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>doing all kinds of jokes. This year, I'm not seeing

171
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:59.839
<v Speaker 3>too many yet, but I didn't fall for one. But

172
00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 3>I did get one pitch last night that kind of

173
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:03.680
<v Speaker 3>like made me go, wait what.

174
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:06.000
<v Speaker 4>So it's a company called Nothing.

175
00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:09.000
<v Speaker 3>They make smartphones or based out of London, and they

176
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:10.759
<v Speaker 3>sent me this email saying, hey, we're coming out with

177
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.600
<v Speaker 3>this pair of beautifully designed wired earphones. And I'm like,

178
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:18.759
<v Speaker 3>that's weird because most phones don't have an earphone jack anymore, right,

179
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:22.000
<v Speaker 3>the three point five millimeter sure, And then it went

180
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 3>on to say, Neil that it has a fifty meter

181
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:28.600
<v Speaker 3>cable and I'm like, wait a second, hold on. I

182
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.759
<v Speaker 3>may not be, you know, versed in metrics, but let

183
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:34.879
<v Speaker 3>me ask chat GBT what's going on here? And they said, oh,

184
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:37.720
<v Speaker 3>that's one hundred and sixty four feet. I said, mistake

185
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 3>in your press release. So I email the woman who

186
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.360
<v Speaker 3>sent it, and I know her pretty well from the past,

187
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 3>you know, ten years of working with her. Said Jane,

188
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:49.399
<v Speaker 3>I think you got something wrong. This should be five meters,

189
00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:52.360
<v Speaker 3>not fifty. She goes, no, Rich, it's a joke.

190
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.879
<v Speaker 2>And that's the only punchline is one hundred foot Well,

191
00:08:56.919 --> 00:08:57.360
<v Speaker 2>it's just.

192
00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:59.320
<v Speaker 4>What, Yeah, it's like it's silly.

193
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:01.480
<v Speaker 3>It's like, who needs one hundred and fifty foot cable?

194
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 3>Also they plug in. It's just you know, look, this

195
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:06.679
<v Speaker 3>is nerd humor, Neil, this is you know. I'm sure

196
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:09.000
<v Speaker 3>there's food humor, which I see you post on your Instagram.

197
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.639
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I'm pretty nerd. You do love your posts.

198
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:14.480
<v Speaker 3>I really I do stop on your posts and laugh

199
00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:15.320
<v Speaker 3>every single time.

200
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>That's all.

201
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 2>You know what, there's so much ugliness, as you know,

202
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 2>in the work that we do because we're surrounded by news.

203
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:24.200
<v Speaker 2>All I'm trying to do is bring a little levity

204
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:29.080
<v Speaker 2>to things. That's all same, same, it's yeah, so ugly. Okay,

205
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:31.960
<v Speaker 2>So I'm gonna do a handle real quick because Handle

206
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.120
<v Speaker 2>always makes it about him.

207
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.399
<v Speaker 1>I have been using Apple forever.

208
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I came kicking and screaming in nineteen nineties, maybe even

209
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:45.679
<v Speaker 2>late eighties, when I was a young designer and artist

210
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 2>and they wanted me to use this machine. And I'm like,

211
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:53.200
<v Speaker 2>what it's like glorified typeshetter. So, needless to say, I've

212
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:56.879
<v Speaker 2>been in the environment and eco system for a long time.

213
00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:01.399
<v Speaker 2>I have an iMac on my desk get home. It's

214
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:04.519
<v Speaker 2>only a couple of years old. And when I updated

215
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:11.120
<v Speaker 2>recently to a newer operating system, not the newest, it

216
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:14.399
<v Speaker 2>started giving me smart issues, saying that there was that there,

217
00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:18.720
<v Speaker 2>there was their smart issue, which is tried to predict

218
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:20.000
<v Speaker 2>issues with my hard drive.

219
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:22.799
<v Speaker 1>Oh what the what?

220
00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:25.639
<v Speaker 3>Interesting? So is that I wonder if you have one

221
00:10:25.639 --> 00:10:29.919
<v Speaker 3>of those fusion drives which which mixes the the standard

222
00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:33.639
<v Speaker 3>like hard drive with the SSD drive, that might be

223
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:34.960
<v Speaker 3>what's giving you some issues.

224
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 2>I will, I would that out because there's nothing on it.

225
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:42.759
<v Speaker 2>I keep everything you know on a separate drive, and

226
00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:44.799
<v Speaker 2>I back up and do that. So if it did,

227
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:47.559
<v Speaker 2>God forbid, crap out and I wouldn't lose anything.

228
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, well that's the main downside of SSDs.

229
00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:54.919
<v Speaker 3>They're a lot faster, but if they crap out, they're done. Yeah,

230
00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:56.679
<v Speaker 3>there's nothing you do. Hard drive you might be able

231
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.639
<v Speaker 3>to recover, but that feer that weirdness.

232
00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:00.399
<v Speaker 1>You remember all that?

233
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:02.279
<v Speaker 2>You put it in a freezer and see if you

234
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 2>could get the information back on the old spinning drives.

235
00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:07.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember that, you don't.

236
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:10.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you would be able to get like on some

237
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:13.000
<v Speaker 2>of the older drives. Man, But I go way back

238
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:15.080
<v Speaker 2>with all this stuff where you put them in the

239
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:17.679
<v Speaker 2>freezer and you could take them out and maybe get

240
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 2>some information off the just weird, well stuff.

241
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:23.480
<v Speaker 4>Just too quickly, I know we got to go.

242
00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:27.639
<v Speaker 3>But to bookend your whole change to to Mac or

243
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:29.759
<v Speaker 3>making you use a Mac. I remember when I switched,

244
00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:31.840
<v Speaker 3>and it was such a big deal because I was

245
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.559
<v Speaker 3>Windows my whole life, and I bought a MacBook at

246
00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:35.639
<v Speaker 3>a place called the Good Guys.

247
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:37.360
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember that electronics store.

248
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:39.240
<v Speaker 3>I think it was called the Good Guys in LA

249
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.360
<v Speaker 3>and it was like it was a transformative moment in

250
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:43.840
<v Speaker 3>my life. So I'm like, I don't know what I'm doing,

251
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:46.039
<v Speaker 3>but I'm trying this thing because I heard it's better

252
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:48.759
<v Speaker 3>for video editing. Yeah, And I've been Mac ever since

253
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:51.720
<v Speaker 3>for my laptop and it's it's been great. And of

254
00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:53.200
<v Speaker 3>course now I use both because I get a lot

255
00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:54.720
<v Speaker 3>of questions on the show about Windows.

256
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Me too.

257
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:57.919
<v Speaker 2>I'm a dual platform here at the station and at home.

258
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:01.879
<v Speaker 2>And funny enough, going way back, rich I was I

259
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:05.840
<v Speaker 2>headed up the computer department and the graphics for Kinkos

260
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.320
<v Speaker 2>for seven or eight locations back in the day, so

261
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 2>I was I was doing all the computer and everything

262
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.080
<v Speaker 2>back when you'd have to do everything yourself and figure

263
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:17.440
<v Speaker 2>out what was going on with the computers. Yes, so

264
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:19.600
<v Speaker 2>this is one of the love that old school name

265
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Ugh Kinkos. Yes, it has a it was a fabulous

266
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:25.720
<v Speaker 2>place to work, said that doesn't exist in its original form.
