 it was fascinating fascinating yes yes all right Justin any questions on the lineup no I think we should be good all right and Sarah or no Roger sorry you appear to be editing line 23 I don't know if I'm sorry that I think you just haven't pressed enter but I didn't know if you've made a change line 23 yep is that me let me see it's if I'm I find if I'm in here is have such a good day it's possible that's me no it's Roger that's Roger Cheng yeah but what am I oh wait this one well it also looks like somebody changed the background oh no no that's fine now the back the gray background met someone was editing it got it now you're editing it now you're editing line 23 column e I'm not editing anything I think I think something's going on like where you're clicking into a media conspiracy meaning to we know you're doing it conspiracy here how's that yeah now you're not now you're fine now everything I did and the only reason I even brought it up is I didn't know if you'd like fixed a typo or found something and we wanted to make sure that was we're gonna make it wrong because it's a media conspiracy that's a great thing about conspiracies you can never prove them wrong or can you well you can but if someone wants to believe the conspiracy they're like I reject your really good argument well I mean conspiracies like because you're in on the conspiracy at that point right yeah you'd say anything yeah that's what they want yeah oh come on what is with this web page I have a family member that believes tilapia are genetically engineered fish without bones okay well wait a second if I buy tilapia at Whole Foods later will there not be bones well don't they just sell it I don't really buy tilapia that much go to the grocery store tell them you want on tilapia with bones they will not be able to give you one is it because the bones are so soft that like they've been genetically engineered out that's why Sarah whole thing but but but but but logic but like that's being like the grapes you're eating have been genetically engineered not to have seeds and you're like better like yeah actually I think I think tilapia are not genetically engineered not to have bones I don't think that's true they're just bread and giant tanks because my grandma used to when we would visit her at her retirement center for Sunday brunches tilapia was often the main course I don't know what that says about anything doesn't have anything to do with conspiracy theories but that's where I ate most of the tilapia I've eaten in my life and it was pretty good it's a good fish yeah it's a good fish the problem is when you farm it you don't necessarily give it the same variety of diet that it would have in the wild so it doesn't it lacks a lot of the beneficial omega-3s and stuff yeah well you could say that about salmon and all that's actually true that it's true I don't want to hear anything okay Sam salmon he's just he's in a mood okay all right let's go with Sarah reading the pre-roll today let's do it here we go three two thanks to everyone who supports Daily Tech news show directly to find out more head to Daily Tech news show dot com slash supports this is the Daily Tech news for Monday July 16th 2018 in Los Angeles on Tom Merritt and back at studio feeling where I belong I'm Sarah Lane from Oakland California I'm Justin Robert Young and in the beautiful valley above us our producer Roger Chen and to the side of you but it's still great to be here nonetheless I was gonna say the valley below but it's really the valley to the valley above let's start today show with a view tech things you should know Bloomberg reports that Apple lost three executives in India and has restructuring its India sales team Apple's market share for iPhones in India's stock in the single digits unable to compete with Samsung and Jami that have the lion share Uber wants to make pickup times easier to rely on with guaranteed pickup windows including $10 credits if your drivers late and pre-written messages drivers can send you such as be right there or I've arrived Uber's also introducing spotlight your ride gets assigned a color so you can hold it up on your phone and help find your driver in a dense area such as an airport now they've had Uber's had the lights themselves with having you haven't been able to have a similar light so they go according to the Bloomberg billionaires index Jeff Bezos is now the richest person who ever Congrats Jeff it couldn't happen to a richer guy Bezos is estimated to be worth $150 billion that's about $55 billion more than Bill Gates right now and that 150 billion is also worth more than Gates was in 1999 which was the previous top mark in inflation adjusted worth until now man how weird does it have to be that you had to wait this long to even be the richest guy in your own town that's a really good in the same metro area so I mean who's doing it wrong living in New York and London and Berlin and Tokyo and Beijing well your dollar goes a little further apparently all right let's talk a little more about rumored Samsung phones Justin D of international securities analyst Mingji quo says that Samsung is planning three new models of the Samsung Galaxy S 10 in 2019 quo believes that there will be models with 5.8 inch 6.1 inch and 6.4 inch screens the larger models will supposedly have an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner built into the display the smaller model will have it on the side there is currently a sensor on the back for the Samsung Galaxy yeah the s9 s9 currently has a the sensor on the back so two things one is Ming Chi quo does do rumors for non-apple I know I was like do my eyes deceive me yeah that's part of his new gig at TF international securities also Ming Chi quo if you're not familiar very good at reading the supply lines his his analyst reports are meant for the supply chain industry but because he's really good at reading that he's able to tell what a lot of these final products will be and he has very good accuracy but I think the thing that is the most interesting out of this is the idea that Samsung would double down on the fingerprint scanner when Apple is very much moving towards saying fingerprint scanner that's old news facial ID will be so good that you won't it'll be easier whereas Samsung has iris recognition they they have some facial scanning technology but they are thinking they can differentiate themselves by saying we know a lot of you don't like the idea the face ID so we'll do the fingerprint instead well I think also price points the big thing there too if they can continue to commoditize fingerprint scanners and put them on lesser priced feature or lesser you know a cheaper version of it then that's something that's I think exciting well yeah and there is quo did say that he thought in 2019 that the a series phones might get this in display scanner as well so it's a great point what's better ultrasonic or supersonic well I don't want my phone to go supersonic because that means it's moving away from me faster than I can catch it on the tier of sonics I would prefer it to be semi-sonic for the competition semi-sonic well we have a new champion everybody let's talk about robo race their autonomous car has become the first to complete the hill climb at the Goodwood Festival of Speed which I had not heard about before today but it sounds like a lot of fun the hill is a 30 300 foot rather gradual climb narrow hay and bricklined passages along the way a Siemens autonomous Ford Mustang also completed the course however that car had several interventions from a human safety driver so robo race congratulations man it feels like the Goodwood Festival of Speed happens earlier every year doesn't it okay you guys this is definitely one of those situations where I'm not gonna pretend like I know anything about the Goodwood Festival of Speed but every single person out there listening right now who does is like what are you idiots you've never heard of the Goodwood Festival of Speed it's been going on since 1993 it's iconic it's done in West Sussex England its owner Charles Gordon Lennox is the 11th Duke of Richmond and he rode in one of these autonomous cars what are you guys idiots yes imagine someone's right the short answer yes long answer let's go next year seriously a lot of fun let's cover this no it's a festival that's been going on for a long time and it does a lot of cool stuff from what I've gathered now that I've looked into it but this hill is hard for human drivers so getting an autonomous car to do it at all is pretty impressive it's a nice challenge to complete although yet as we mentioned the Siemens Mustang couldn't do it on its own even the Robo Race car did it real slow like it's just kind of puttering along but but look I mean I think these are the kinds of stories that we are going to continue to see as autonomous driving becomes more and more of a reality and passing these tests is a huge step forward not only for the tech but also for the understanding of it because there have been peaks and valleys to us understanding exactly where autonomous driving is going to fit into our daily lives mm-hmm yeah I mean a 300 foot gradual client it's like you know the closest thing I can think of is certain Hills in San Francisco we're like as a driver like is this gonna work gonna get to the top of the hill we're going the other way as well as you know sort of terrifying so I can see where there are there are practical applications to a car being able to to tackle this yeah it's a proof of something proof of technology or skill Roku introduced its Roku TV wireless speakers wireless speakers that they say will be in sync because you can only use it with the Roku TV not the Roku boxes or the sticks the speakers connect to the Roku powered TV using the Wi-Fi powered Roku connect platform we talked about that at CES they announced it and it's actually shipping a CES announcement is actually shipping that's actually the biggest news here no not really the speakers also have bluetooth so you can play music from like your phone or your tablet speakers come with the Roku TV voice remote which has limited voice activations you press a button and you can say you know play pause rewind etc and a square Roku touch remote the idea is you keep that one on the coffee table and you can just hit play or pause easily there customers who pre-order the speakers now get them at 150 bucks until next week July 24th after that you can pre-order them at a discount and get them for 180 bucks until October 15th that's when they shot start shipping once they start shipping they'll be 200 bucks for everybody but wireless speakers granted these are probably not going to be the best quality sounding speakers you could buy but they're easy setup you press a button if you've got the Roku TV and the Roku speakers they find each other and boom bobs your uncle so an interesting play here obviously we have seen no shortage of ways to capitalize on the smart speaker market not a smart speaker well sure this is its own basically it's taking the idea that all right well what is cool about those smarts smart speakers that you can put them anywhere and that you can you want to angle you know like okay well I can yell from these various places and and it can hear it right mmm this is saying let's do dirt dumb surround sound let's do dirt dumb any wireless the big the big key here is wireless you won't have to plug stuff in and run wires that's that's the big attractive feature yeah exactly and that and that you can now angle exactly how you want it's not they not the cost of surround sound it's on the installation of surround sound but you can have a have that feeling fairly cheap that's a smart idea if you have a Roku TV yeah and you don't care too much you're not an audio file I don't want to say you don't care too much about sound but you you just want something that sounds a little better than your TV speakers basically yeah well and if you have smart speakers then it's some other device that you also have alongside this because yeah there's only so many speakers most of us want you know hanging around I would prefer to have the smart speaker that can then hook into my home entertainment system but again the options that I have right now even though they vary in quality in summer higher quality not wireless so that is it that is a good selling point Skype version 8.0 is launching bringing mobile redesign to desktop Skype 8 includes 1080p HD video and screen sharing as well as new chat and file sharing features Skype 7 will no longer function after September 1st and later this summer Skype will add end to end encryption to audio calls text messages and shared files and Microsoft will add call recording to Skype across Windows Mac iOS Android and Linux all members of the call are notified as recording begins and audio video and share screens are all included in the recording the feature will start rolling out at the end of July Tom another universally praised move by Skype no body likes to praise Skype I know but building in call recording something that certainly podcasters and a lot of other people have wanted for a long time I mean it's been 15 years of Skype and people using you know hot recorder for VoIP and audio hijack and Skype just never built it in now it's finally built in is it too little too late I don't know but but the fact that it's doing video the fact that they're now bringing an HD into it I mean these none of these are bad updates for Skype the question is Skype usership is kind of plateauing because people are learning to use other things instead from FaceTime to Discord and more the big thing that I've seen Sturman drawing about is the fact that older versions will stop working yeah but that's not new they've been doing that for a while where they're like nope your your older version is working what's new here is on the day of the new one they announced the old one will stop working really soon yeah but they're trying to get people used to that idea of like no you can't go to oldapps.com and just keep using your favorite version of Skype yeah well somebody who has to occasionally use Skype for variety of yeah like remote interviews where you record your audio locally and I do and then we mess with it later it's cumbersome I would I would love if this feature worked really well and it didn't have kind of that compressed sound that you get on Skype which you can usually bypass if you have local copies so we don't use Skype on this show but I suppose that's actually an interesting question of whether or not their call recording will be recordings locally I mean if it is central and everybody's on Skype and you could theoretically have everything local yeah it's a cloud recording according according to what I've read so that's so that you're getting the best version of everybody so well if that's the case that's really cool feature that works like that or if it's really not the best local version but the best cloud version who knows but yeah get get used to it folks running old apps is a bad idea it always has been in a world where security moves fast because you need security updates and you can't expect companies continue to support security patches for decades so we're going to have fewer and fewer opportunities to use old software and it's risky to do so anyway well you know we've actually come across there have been a few folks who've you know had some issues with iTunes with with with our show lately and it's like well what version you're running oh a really old one yeah well and you know since you've run out I want I want to hasten to say that is not informed my attitude here my attitude towards you is you it should still work you should still be able to get our show but separately maybe you know not the most secure thing to do moving on Pinterest is spinning out Instapaper as a separate company Pinterest acquired the read later book mocking service two years ago although Instagram has been it's had a storied career of its own Instapaper not only lets you read articles later but also save them for offline viewing and then even email them to the Kindle Marco Arment formerly of Tumblr sold Instapaper which he started to beta works which also but dig for keeping score back in 2013 it went independent again for a while before Pinterest acquired it the same team of developers has been running it through all of this now the company once again is is independent Instapaper has been offline in Europe since May that's due to the need to comply with GDPR so you know the key here is that the developers who've been running it will now own it like they're running it they didn't sell it to somebody else this time and it's the same people who've been running it since Arment sold it so so they're trying to calm it down who are like hold on what about privacy it's like hey we're the same developers same servers and everything we're just not part of Pinterest anymore curious if this is going to survive though it feels like Pinterest wanted to get rid of it because it didn't want to do the work to comply with GDPR and there's not enough usage of it well and it's it's an interesting space that you know the features for which have been kind of built into a lot of the devices that you know it was once most useful for so yeah i mean browsers do a lot of what Instapaper was you know back in the day it was like this is this is the way to go i used it constantly and again i used it a lot more when i used an iPad more regularly because i was reading a lot more longer form content off of my desktop but it's a great product but yeah like you mentioned Justin it's the features were you know lots of other companies were like oh yeah of course that's a great idea let's just do that yeah i i want to put it out there to the audience feedback at dailytechnewshow.com uh people tend to get their news from streaming sources and by streaming i don't mean streaming video like i just read twitter i just look at facebook they don't save articles to read like you used to and with internet connectivity becoming more and more pervasive there's not a leak need to read things offline like there used to be uh so i'm curious if there are people out there who still use either instapaper or pocket or any of these services and if so why do you still need to use them now and why do you think other people have moved away from folks if you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes be sure to subscribe to dailytechheadlines.com all right interesting story in the Atlantic today about many of instagram's biggest accounts particularly meme related accounts locking their accounts away from the public in order to get more followers let me explain uh how it looks 8 million followers couples note 8.2 million greater comedy 5.3 million the list goes on they have all become private instagram accounts that means you can't see the pictures unless you're a follower and to become a follower you have to request approval to be followed now granted these accounts are approving anybody who asks but they're making you go through the process of requesting approval because it means when a follower of their account shares a photo in a direct message or a group chat the other friends who might not be followers won't see the meme and that makes them want to follow the instagram account so they can see what the big deal is it also means that these new accounts don't get featured on instagram's explore page but the private meme pages have been seeing an increase in followers as a result in other words we get more followers from folks in group chat realizing oh i need to follow them to see the meme then we get from featured being featured on instagram's own explore page in fact one account in this atlantic article says they went from 10 000 a day to a hundred thousand a day just to buy going private now there's some benefits and distractions to this uh but but sarah i know this caught your eye as well it's sort of creating a walled garden in order to increase interest yeah and this is yeah i have several friend groups on instagram where you know we're all sending each other memes you know a meme is you know it's something we all know what a meme is and half the time someone will send something and be like lol ha ha in the caption and the rest of us are like private account no one saw that and so then that person has to go back take a screenshot and then send it again so you can get around these things but it does you know you notice that they count you know because you kind of go in and go why is it private that seems like a cool exclusive club i want to be in go ahead and follow another thing about this is yes you have to request to follow and then your granted access and then you're in but if you want to unfollow an account and a lot of these meme accounts say there's it there's sort of like this added incentive to do it because there's one more step part that's part of unfollowing an account because instagram will say just so you know you're gonna have to be re-accepted again if you if you unfollow you really want to do that and so people might go well i guess i'll just keep following so it is a way to retain followers as much as it is a way to gain followers even though it's sort of reverse psychology you know this is an outgrowth of one of my favorite lessons that instagram taught me and i think it is very instructive of the difference between folks who grew up in a world without the internet and people who have grown up with it specifically that as the internet became a thing for for many of us the idea was always infinite space that was the most fascinating thing and so flicker was great photos all my photos i can now have them categorized and and every photo i ever take will be there and then instagram seems to have been more about scarcity and and you've seen these trends of younger users that will only keep seven pictures on their instagram account at all time they'll be deleting photos and that's totally contrary to everything that i've always been like no no no one day i'm gonna want to look at that photo 30 years from now and i need them all saved in pristine quality and and that's what this is uh to me about that they're even their own product for exposure is not as interesting as scarcity there's also the um there is the the practice of going private and going public and sort of going back and forth because maybe there's a racy photo that gets slipped in there but if you're private instagram is not going to flag you the way that you're public but as far as the followers go if you have enough of an audience you can walk that line as well there's it's and it the the Atlantic article that that goes into a lot of these accounts i don't follow all the all the accounts that were mentioned even though they have huge amounts of followers but i follow a few of them and i couldn't even really tell you why but you always imagine this as like some guy who just has a lot of time at his hand loves me loves memes and just happened to you know strike it rich on instagram and it's like most of these are run by firms who run various instagram accounts with lots of followers and the whole thing is to you know occasionally dip something in there that's for sale and so people are actually making money off of that that's also a part of this too yeah it's it was it's an eye opener if you haven't read this account uh about how there are meme networks right of instagram accounts where where there are managers who manage many uh you know not just dozens but hundreds of people who are out there on instagram making money out of getting memes that are picked up uh and and passed along i mean i don't follow a lot of these but i follow a few of them like we rate dogs sarah tip me off to that yeah and that's that's probably the least example of of these sorts of things so yeah it's a there's a whole world out there of people making money off things that you probably don't think are that useful unless you're already one of the people who's sharing them and then you think they're great well so there's an account called daquan you guys may uh follow maybe don't not but very popular meme account on instagram and it's run by an agency and now i'm like oh that's why daquan is always cross promoting these other rando accounts that i either look at or don't look at it's like it's just a it's a company that we're you know it's it's a company like anything else it's not just it's not just that guy that i you know thought was some you know and there's and there's a little lot of money and i mean look at brands like like the chive and stuff like that that were you know basically uh born on uh this idea and instagram is the perfect discovery platform for it because yeah if you if you're like how did those vine people get uh get popular i mean this is the same thing it just never ended uh and so so it didn't you you became less aware i think because it wasn't like all the vine people have moved to youtube and i you sort of heard stories about that instagram people are just still on instagram kill it uh but the the the six seconds that lasted a lifetime ah yes well if you like memes and you want to let us know what memes you like the most or just any kind of news in general you know where you should go you should go to our subreddit submit stories and vote on other

travel minute if you like air travel but you don't like how long the flights get for international flights there's some good news recently when bowing announced they're working on a new hypersonic passenger jet that would go two and a half times the speed of the old concord it would go up to mock five it would also fly 30 000 feet higher than the concord flew you could get from san francisco to tokyo in three hours that's the good news the bad news is they think it'll take about 20 to 30 years to develop i'm chris christensen from amateur traveler that's exactly the reaction right tokyo in three hours in 30 years yeah no that's hey a uh we're we're getting there right that's um that's it's also funny though to think where that tech will be when you've also seen the rise of now that reusable rockets are a reality that that being the new way to get from point a to point b and and at that timeline i'd be curious to see which is further along all right let's see what's in the mail bag sarah got a lot of good mail bag options today but i had to go with davis david packard is a cpa and i think it's urbine california i think it's uh uh orange county which is not too far from where

alive he must be and he was born ready source of the t-shirt he may be oh dear the linchpin to human society you know how we talk about well roger and i at least talk about how we're always getting emails intended for someone else oh yeah someone just sent me all their kids camp photos you know and and these are the these are the ones where i always write back and i'm like this is not necessarily you're looking for i want them to get photos but also for privacy reasons like i'll delete this but you know just just look at those emails a little bit closer they're very cute though okay i'm gonna stop looking at them no i get those two where somebody sends me like here here's the estimate on your car and i'm like yeah my car yeah sometimes i'm just like eh it's whatever you know yeah like here's your receipt for this thing you bought and you know i don't know wherever that i was like never been there but but i don't want aunt sarah to not get the camp photos no of course i like sir lame got by accident thankfully it's to you and we know you're trustworthy yeah but imagine like somebody sending their camp photos of their kids just who knows who well yeah and you know sometimes you know in email signatures there's phone numbers and but you know you can there's information there that you know you just i uh i worry i worry for the children for the sarah lanes of the world for all of the sarah lanes of the world there are many yeah when are we going to move on to unique identifiers being required you can't have a name like domain names right like well you can't have a name but someone else has already taken well it's not ever going to become a thing it would certainly make naming children interesting well sorry i had to spilled more water so so for example if you know if if roger you wanted your your your your future child to be sarah chang well there's probably a sarah chang out there yes we already looked all right just gonna you're just gonna have to find a different name because sarah chang already exists so many there's so many some of them are less what we're saying is what when will we get to the point where it's going to be required to just have a unique name yeah a name that does not exist in the world isn't that almost impossible isn't it isn't that why we have middle names wasn't that the whole reason no people people can have the same middle name there's no requirement that you can't no no but the idea of of the middle name was to kind of carry over but that's that's also like the that's like the cheat if you don't want to make someone like a junior different middle name but you both have the same first name which i think is cheating and i would like to put a stop to it really yeah oh i didn't realize this was a hot button issue for you you just it just come on either either just put the junior on them or the third or the fourth or the fifth right or or don't name them the first name like i well what is this hole in the sheet nonsense well i think and what ends up happening often is that so if there's a there's a you know john michael senior right and then there's a john matthew then they just the younger kid goes by the middle name because it's just too confusing otherwise yeah not actually a junior you just had the same name as your dad or it's like and and this one i don't know i'm on the fence on but there's also the like everybody gets the family names and then you just wind up becoming the nickname like you're just given a nickname at some point during your life and that's what your family everybody knows you as scooter or something scooter i wish i was named scooter can i change my name is that too late for that scooter lane great scooter lane oh my gosh yeah you're a baseball player or something with that yeah yeah we're just are just really fast i'm on the scooter lane yeah maybe it's a little too tech with all those bird scooters outside my house right now and miss my window too bad oakland introduced rules or they're they're going under advisement so now little scooter rich life might be uh fleeting um don't believe the skype yep uh the skype train don't believe the skype but like what do you mean why aren't why aren't we believing the new features no that's just a title for the show i know but it seems like it's like something bad happens yeah and that's what justin was saying is like the hype is that the that the new skype is good but everyone's pointing out things that are wrong with it all right fine that's what you guys want to do just be all sensational i'm open to others but you know i'm kidding i i just wanted to make sure it didn't sound like yeah yeah no there's a reality behind it i think that's a good question to go back to the whole children's name thing you could start using names from other cultures which aren't necessarily like but then what if they're so like i the point is it how do you come up with a unique name my my question is when will it become the rule like we just can't allow people to have the same name anymore there'll be a registry and you can only have an official name if it's unique i just don't know how in practice you would do that with all the billions of people and growing cloud services but blockchain okay the back end we figured out tom but what bitcoin what do i name my child yeah i don't know you would name them like uh you can name them like derrick like like the aol like it would be like derrick 281 there there could you know i mean this is why i'm asking this is a great idea not saying but at some point it becomes like it's just not practical for people to have official names that are the same because it's too much confusion we'll have an international registry uh where you can get your certified name that is not belong to anybody else of course identity and spying and surveillance at all privacy becomes a huge issue which is why this will never happen but i'm just curious if if i'm wrong about it never happening if there becomes a point where they're like no everybody shouldn't have you know you shouldn't be able to have there are just as many problems with having two people with the same name i don't know maybe black mirror can tackle this and let us know how it unfolds in a really awful way it'll be like there's one positive episode because everyone expects it to be bad so the twist will be that it turns out great what if it was more like last pass or something where they just generate a random combination of nouns puts them together and and and you just phonetically do your best so no it could be like um for example like uh i've been playing this game metal gear solid uh fan of what is it again metal gear but anyways the the name for all the characters are all like some variation of animal so it could be like itching art bar or testy walrus or something and they could just be you know you could be prancing unicorn yeah but oh a course battery staple couldn't be you know it's it's like any internet handle like they'll all get used up really quickly and then you have to go to numbers i don't know i'm surprised how many domain names are available still that make perfect sense like when daily tech news show was available i mean also uh the and my new obsession is buying longer like sentency phrasey kind of domain names and they are all open like and that that goes along with what roger's saying like what if your name was that's the way it was and that's what people would call you that's the way it was a standard like it's the whole like who's on first what's on second i don't know is on third by the way phrase names i like it forget the first and middle well it's because there's there's there's a lot of cultures where your name is actually not a phrase but it's an illusion to it means a concept rather than yeah my name in chinese means like one with one you have great expectations of or from well but i mean i think a lot of uh you know i don't know but i mean my name means heber princess i mean you never say that but that's what it means well in tinvec points out there's those three meter by three meter plots of the of the world that all have a unique name it's an effort to create a more useful location specific way of locating things and addressing points of the globe you only need three words to make that hat give us enough spaces for every three by three meter point on the globe so it might be practical to just be like yeah i'm horse staple battery i'm horse battery staple horse staple battery staple horse like oh get it twisted that's my name too i'm coaster boat blushing candy but yeah the the the url of the sort of the sentence i went through this recently because i'm launching a new podcast called have such a good day and we didn't if this isn't even something we thought about that hard we were like you know something like have a nice day but just a little different so we were like what about something like have such a good day you know and we don't type today and it's like yep it's available and so and that was the end of it and so it was dot net and so it was dot org and you know all the others and i hadn't bought a domain in a while so i was like oh i really thought that that would be taken no one's thought of this yet i don't think i'm going to use it so i'm going to go ahead and say it but i just bought the domain it must have happened dot com thing sort of thing yeah it's i'm like really that's available that's great yeah um that seems like a great um conspiracy theory website oh it must have happened it must have happened boneless fish they're genetically modified to make it easier to eat yeah no that's the other range that's the whole thing the whole thing they don't have bones because the processors want to be able to cut them up without having to deal with all this waste and i i just is that would people be angry about that if that were true because the fish should have the bones that they were meant to have well no i guess you're gonna eat the fish you don't really want bones and i think it might just be considered uh unnatural or going too far in the name of science or man once again meddling with things he doesn't understand or humankind yeah cloning sheep taking fish bones out if you took the bones out of sheep and cloned them you call me fish head sheep bones some sturdy ass fish my name is fish head sheep bones well there's your there's your kid's name fish head sheep bones that's your kid's name roger you're the one having one we've

because of scooter liby isn't it it's not it's definitely not you might i was avoiding that just to make sure we didn't torpedo this in its infancy i prefer to think that i'm i i got the nickname

it's like a you know you're marrying into like the rock of fellers or something and it's like all right yeah yeah right it's a good name that's a valuable name right uh but if you know ashley paramour ashley that's it that's a great that's it that's a great name specifically for uh a girl with like a public persona like that's that's a great that's a really good name yeah and i'm like well you don't no need to change although i ashley young i'd be all right but ashley paramour is more memorable it is yeah it kind of rolls off yeah yeah yeah i'm i should change my name to revera you really
