 I'm gonna assume that they're they've got you know other like maybe there's a soccer team down there and use it Maybe they can use as a Tesla supercharger site Maybe so yeah, right yeah, I think the best part of that The best part of that chargers game was they did one of those like timeout Competitions and the guy like one and they're like, what do you say and he's like go Sandy egg Oops They're not there anymore sir Sort of in Los Angeles, I mean you're in Carson Has two NFL teams and I don't think either one actually play in the city or do they the judge plan New Jersey? State even though it's quite close Giants They share a stadium they both play in New Jersey. Yeah, I think they They both play in the same stadium The old San Diego and that's gonna happen with the chargers and the Rams they're both playing in the same stadium too in Inglewood Neither one of them will be in LA either San Diego County Credit Union Stadium is used by San Diego State Oh, okay, that's tax go Aztecs, but that's weird. It's nowhere near the campus. Yeah Yeah, whatever It's near a private Airspace though that much I do know mm-hmm Invaluable that was the word I was looking for sorry. I'm just trying to construct a really great tweet and the holiday bull happens there Yeah, the MetLife Stadium is in Jersey and both the Jets and the Giants use it. Yeah, okay Well, I don't know why I only had it in my head that the Jets did that because I was like Those are New Jersey people. They both play at that stadium The jet the Giants played in Jersey first. I think maybe that may be why I don't know I'm just speaking out of my ass. I don't really know. I have no idea I went to a Mets game At the old Mets stadium way back in the day. Actually, I went to the old Yankee stadium too as well Yeah, shea stadium and then the old Yankee stadium So fun. Both of them are so fun I like an old I like an old All right, I like me an old stadium like Dodger Stadium All right, are you guys ready? Yep. Yep. I'm ready we go A nicola show keeps you in the know if you'd like to find out more Please go to daily tech news show dot com slash support and find out how to keep us on the air. Thank you This is the daily tech news for wednesday march 28th 2018 from dts headquarters in los angeles downtown merit and from studio feline i'm sarah lane And mr. Chris ashley, where are you coming from? Your boy is hanging out over in the dc area from your smr podcast. What up people? I'm back. Good to have you back, man. Thank you. So happy. I saw the email. I was like Something to do I'm coming home That email of course came from our producer roger chang. How are you sir? I'm doing well Again good to hear We are gonna talk a little bit about uh cloud services. Are they gonna last? I don't know we're gonna find out but let's start with a few tech things you should know Sources tell bloomberg facebook will not unveil the facebook speaker as it's rumored to be called at the f a developer conference Which starts on may 1st instead choosing to focus on its commitment to improving data privacy practices Rumors that facebook would announce connected speakers with a digital assistant and video chat capabilities Adafate have been said to be replaced by the need to explain new more restrictive rules around what kinds of information App makers could collect on their users via facebook service Does that mean the uh the engineers who are putting together a speaker will be explaining the privacy rules? It's it would be a tough You got had in a long time that you know, I've been here about four or five times that made me laugh out loud Of course, you're not talking about more things to steal people's privacy The windows subsystem for linux now includes ubuntu susa debian debian debian and collie and microsoft now has an open source tool called wsl distro launcher on github That'll let you build your own linux package tool lets distros create packages for distribution You have to be the owner or the organization behind the distro to do it though You can't make red hat a distro red hat has to do it Uh, but then uh once you do it you can put it at the windows store and it also lets developers side load distros on their development systems So you could side load red hat on your development system using this if you want Google announced the addition of new support for 39 languages in google maps among the languages are Finnish, vietnamese, swedish, african, zulu and turkish about 1.25 billion people speak the languages added So, you know, I'm pretty good use of these languages. We're not on there All right, let's talk we got we got a little more about facebook The the news just keeps on coming uh playboys chief creative officer announced that the publication Is the latest high profile account holder to remove its facebook presence as you as you know Lots of people making a big deal when they do this elan musk for instance However, the next web notes that facebook's monthly active user data Shows increases of more than four percent since january in the us and the uk now this jump could be due to people Investigating their privacy settings that that seems likely app any however reports there was only a brief drop in facebook downloads last week that has now returned To normal levels overall data does not really indicate a significant number of users Deleting their facebook accounts. Are any of us shocked? i'm not shocked. I mean It seems like some of these businesses are looking more to make a splash off I deleted my facebook then anything i don't even get why they're deleting It's not like they're sharing personal information. It doesn't make any sense to me. Yeah, it's You know the last time christie ron was in uh, I think the end of january and all tom and roger and I And and he gets we've talked about facebook consistently every day since then Um, you know because that's the way it goes. But yeah, I mean, what do you make of this? I don't know Movement if you want to call it that of people being like facebook's evil get away from facebook I think what it is uh more the media Being pissed off with facebook. I think that uh, this is their opportunity to Uh hit back at something that has been helping to pull Viewers and eyeballs away from the the and when I say media, I mean the old media tv You know facebook has been pulling people away and then monetizing the heck out of it and then Offered for other folks to advertise and then kind of changed the rules on them as well Back in the day to make it a little bit harder. So they're not making as much money as they once were And so but they still have the eyeballs. So I think that uh, a lot of this has to do more with the A little get back at facebook than anything else because the reality is At least from as far as I see it, you know the the issue is them Allowing people to take the data, right? You know, it's not the fact that they've been collecting this this data for a long time And continue to collect the same data But the fact that you know somebody was able to Access it when access additional data that they weren't supposed to be able to I think that's the biggest problem Well, somebody hand it over data Say somebody handed over data they had the right to But they didn't have the right to hand it over and that's that's the long and the short of it Well on that note following up on mark zuckerberg's post last week the company announced changes meant to simplify access to its privacy settings So primary controls are now on one page instead of sort of spread out across 20 as they've been in the past It's now a lot more clear what info is shared with which apps Privacy shortcuts will be added to the menu for things like two factor off Data deletion and the like some of these changes are required to meet the e use gdpr requirements. Those are new We've talked about them in the past here on the show facebook though is not changing what data it collects Or how it uses it Yeah, it's just reorganizing everything it goes right to chris's point It's they're not they're not changing what they know about you or what they collect They are trying to finally Make it not require a how-to video to figure out how to change your privacy settings though Yeah, and I'll just say shout out to the e you because You know, they always create these rules that make personal data a lot More important to businesses and there to always seem to be the ones leading the way Forcing companies to protect user data Yeah, I I think uh It is this is this is more controversial to me than the whole cambridge analytic a thing. Uh, that was a A sleazy company convincing a professor to do something. Maybe he was duped. Maybe he wasn't The fact that facebook makes it so hard for you to know what's shared is more of an issue And this is way too late. I'm glad they're doing it But they should have made it easy for you to to figure out this stuff a long time ago And I think it's very telling that it took this long for them to fix the ui on those 20 pages. That was ridiculous Oh, yeah All right, knowing that the verge is vlad savav is a critic of the notch in mobile phones Essential phone was one of the first And of course the iphone 10 is the most famous One plus reached out to explain to vlad at the verge Why the next one plus phone will have a notch? Uh, because apparently one plus likes a challenge carl pay from one plus told savav One plus and most phone makers see notches as adding screen real estate not taking it away The quote is What you are essentially doing is moving the entire notification bar up giving users more content on their screen Now vlad has a great write-up of all of the explanations that follow on that and why one plus is doing it better than other phone makers and Uh, essentially making it, you know, so that your video doesn't end up under the notch and this and that and some other things that they're doing But overall Do you buy that chris? Is this just adding screen real estate or is it adding ugly or is it something else? I'll be honest that notch took some getting used to i'm not gonna front I when i've got the the latest iphone and i was like Why is this thing cut off out of there? um But what that said i have gotten used to it So it doesn't bother me nearly as much but you know the real thing going on here is Vlad you are a beast because you got companies checking with you on how why they should be building stuff Awesome for you, dude. Yeah props to bled for that Sorry, do you bother by the notch? Not at all. I also rock a very very, um Cracked phone screen and i have for some time and now I wear it as a badge of pride So I just don't care about things like this. However, I remember the first time I saw the essential phone You brought it over to my house. It was new at the time and it was like, oh Okay, there's a little okay Um, I don't know. I I don't Is it because it doesn't feel good physical like what is the notch thing that people are so sort of like Well, is there a notch or is there notch? That's why I know if it's a really great phone. Yeah, no, there's a few things People are mad because it looks weird, right? Anything that looks different people are mad that android phones are doing it now because they feel like they're just Doing it because the iphone did it and that's not a good enough reason And I think the legitimate ones are the people are like, you know on the iphone Sometimes the video goes under there and that just bothers me. It distracts me Um, okay, because it's not everything that falls underneath it, right? It's just sometimes and then it kind of catches you off guard in the beginning But I'm totally on board with the idea that this is just extra screen real estate Unless the notch gets in my way and it really doesn't get in my way very often on either phone Moving on soft bank and saudi arabia are planning the world's biggest solar farm When I say big, I mean big 200 billion solar power installation would produce 200 gigawatts of energy That is one third of the worldwide supply last year just to put that into perspective It's a lot of energy saudi arabia generated 77 gigawatts in 2016 almost entirely from natural gas and the oil Yeah, a third of the worldwide solar supply last year and yet also bigger than all of the energy G suburbia made last year like this this is what saudi arabia does though I don't I don't mean to speak ill of the country, uh, but they often present plans and get them in the press Uh, and then it remains to be seen if the plans get followed through on Uh, I hope this does because it would be it would be so interesting to see the world's Uh center of oil production become the center of solar production Something, uh, you know, I've always sense on paper. Anyway, right, you know desert country lots of sun. I mean You can you can supposedly power one third of the world's entire supply It's it's all from this very, you know small country when you think of it on a global scale like that's amazing I hope you do it. I just never understood why all these companies that have the monopoly on gas and oil Nevered said, you know what? Let's just be the monopoly on solar power. It just doesn't make it We would rather just block it. So, you know I love the fact that it's big news And it's a something to boast about to build such a solar farm like that. So, you know, I'd love to see that Here, I mean saudi arabia doing what the music industry didn't right saying, huh? Our uh, our natural advantage may be drying up soon Let's figure out a solution to that before it happens. What else we got? Mashable notes the latest snapchat beta has a tab called connected apps in its setting page Now, this is a beta. So the settings page really doesn't do anything right now Uh, just says there's nothing there. It actually gives you kind of an error message And snapchat only has one connected app Snaps own bitmoji snap owns bitmoji There's also an integration with shazam that you could sort of consider a connected app But this seems to be an indication that snap is going to start creating some sort of app ecosystem Now a lot of people immediately want to point to like that's what got facebook in trouble But also lots of ecosystems out there have have app connections to them without getting into the same trouble as facebook does It's all in the matter of the implementation, right? Yeah, what the man do we need another app ecosystem? It's not if we needed chris It's if it makes us look really cute And it also does post on social media Oh my gosh, I mean how else would I get the bitmoji version of me dancing around below me dancing in a snapchat? I don't I don't even have snapchat installed nor do I use it. I don't even understand it really Well, there you go. That's why you don't get it I I have it installed. I use it maybe once a month Um, so something like this. I'm like, well, I don't know, you know Maybe there would be an incentive to like get me back into it More with with more tools that are you know go beyond sort of like you're a dog You know post that photo and send it to your friends. Um, I I don't know Uh, I feel like a lot of things that snapchat are a little up in the air these days It does it does feel historic just a historic perspective here. It does feel interesting that Back when apps were first added to facebook or even in uh, google in google's system And but yeah, I think even before google plus they had this little like integrated app ecosystem for google services It was a big deal right twitter I think was one of the first ones we saw do this and I was like, wow, that's so cool They're so open and letting people interact with their platform This is the future and now snap does it and it's like yon or controversial, you know Well, I also think that snapchat suffers from Um people thinking like oh, it's this app, you know for sexting and then it was like No, it's not just about that but it's like an app for like dumb filters You know or you know to like talk one-on-one with people where you want the conversation to go away later It's like there's not a lot of there there and I think that um Depending on what I don't know the company might uh integrate with could make it more robust But for people like me, it's like, I don't know man I'm pretty full on my social media accounts at this point I don't know what you can do to kind of get me to you know be More into it my social run if over Folks if you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes Be sure to subscribe to daily tech headlines You can get it on the amazon echo the google home the anchor app and of course daily tech headlines dot com So morgan staley analyst keith weiss Has a note out where he says microsoft's public cloud adoption Will grow 44 to rather grow to 44 of workloads in the next three years It's currently at about 21 percent This goes along with some valuation estimates that microsoft's going to leapfrog back into the top three Right up there next to amazon and of course cloud adoption is what sachin adela has has bet on What do you think of this not just from microsoft's perspective chris but the idea that Software as a service is sticking around do you do you think that that is a an arrow that only goes up? Or are we going to swing back at some point? You know it's something i've been contemplating for quite some time because professionally i have to work around uh sass and uh even in the process of building out sass offerings and so i remember When we were first being told that hey you really need to start taking this stuff more seriously and you know We're talking to customers and they're like no no not putting anything up there And i i would say it was like overnight. We're like what are you the customers are coming to us now It's like what are you guys doing in in this sass space and so it really ramped up uh from a custom from customers that i've talked to pretty quickly so When i saw how fast it ramped up and you know the idea behind is we're saving money And we don't have to order all these servers and systems and we can um, you know offload, you know the work somewhere else You know that that initial thought makes sense even though you know some people are finding they're not saving any money at all So i so my natural thought process was man is this coming back inside at some point but The the money that microsoft is putting behind it the incentives They're giving companies to move helping some companies move to free to get in azure and get into office 365 and uh You know it it's probably going to be some time before we see any type of shift Um the other direction. In fact, you know more you More you see more right now a lot of companies running hybrid solutions where they you know, they'll offload like uh, for example if you have a company that has uh Users that are in a warehouse. They don't need accounts. They don't log on the computers But they have accounts in their active directory Um, so what a lot of companies are doing is like, why do we need extra servers for those accounts? We you know, we'll just put those up in azure Uh ad and then we'll just keep the regular accounts in our on our regular servers right replicating So that's that's one of the use cases that you know that i've seen Um that I I could see why they would want to do that. So I you know But if I had to just bet everything I had at some point it's probably going to come back Well, we were talking about this in the uh analyst slack today and and a few different people pointed out similar situations that they've been in where A company Says okay, we're moving into the cloud and makes a big deal out of it Maybe even puts out press releases one person says about how this is going to allow them to be on the cutting edge and save money And yet behind the scenes Uh saying please don't change anything In other words, like we actually like it working exactly the way it's working right now But we need to make it move to the cloud for reasons But we don't want it to change that indicates to me that some people are moving to software as a service or sass Because it looks good not because they need to and that's the kind of thing That might eventually swing people back to doing in-house stuff. Yeah, plus, you know You have companies that have to when they have to report money So on the other side of this not just the companies using sass, but companies that are building sass solutions You really have to take into account that you're changing You do your model of how you make money because when you sell software you make that money upfront But when you sell a sass solution that money's over time And so, you know, is your company prepared to do that, you know Are they prepared to kind of hold off for a year or two on that bottom line? Maybe they want to go public so they need to Uh, keep those numbers up and keep so, you know, there's a lot of challenges there just from the back end of this stuff as well So, you know, and if if companies aren't all willing to take that hit at some point You know in the short term to make the long-term gains Then, you know, they'll they'll be also then pushing Folks back to go on premise as well. So but for now, I mean, I just I don't see anything happening anytime soon But I just you know, it isn't an interesting contemplation as to whether how long this this one is going to run If you sort of step back and and look at it, uh from the thousand foot view or 30,000 However, how you need to get to be able to look at it really wide Uh There's always at one end the smallest of businesses who just can't they maybe they can't even forward their own it person So softwares of service is going to be real appealing to them Whether it's through into it or google or aws or whatever for for all kinds of things Uh, and in fact, there's there's a uh article on nextgov.com this week about subscription based it where you just hire an it Service instead of an it person now on the other end of the largest companies are always going to build Their own right amazon built their own and sells it to other people microsoft runs their own They don't buy it from someone else. Uh, so so there's that end of it But even apple sometimes uses aws right sometimes uses other services So to me, it's all about where that line that line shifts As to where you are absolutely going to be in house and and where you're not Uh, and and that's that that one that line seems to be moving to the extreme left And I feel like it's gotta move back at some point Now the thing is when it when it moves if it moves back is in what form will it move back right because I think If i'm not mistaken one of the new features coming out in the next windows server version is kind of the ability to do a cloud A company to do a cloud of their own um, and then connect it back with azure so I believe that's right. So if that's the case, you know, then, you know, it's still a Kind of an interesting way for it to come back where it still runs as a cloud It's just a private cloud by the company, you know, can you still, you know That's something that would satisfy a lot of the regulations in the eu especially germany They're really strict on to what type of data can go up into a cloud China as well You know some countries say, you know, you can put our data in the cloud, but it can't leave our country China's the strictest on that. Yeah. Yeah, so um, so those type of things would be interesting as well But uh, you know for now Like I said, the ramp up is pretty amazing. Um, when you look at it and the fact that um, you know, this company a lot of people are starting to you starting out of rumbles of writing microsoft off as a you know, the windows has gone away and and and xbox is nothing and Office is you know, still hanging in their server, but then it's just like boom. We're doing everything in the cloud and just like that, you know, they're Scratching the surface of being a trillion dollar company. Yeah, and and one of the I know some people out there like I'm not in enterprise. This doesn't affect me But a lot of times where it goes enterprise is where you will go as a consumer next And right now it's all cloud if you're a person that's been hoping to bring data back into your own house It's you could still do that obviously there's lots of ways to do it But there's not as many easy ways all all the effort is in developing cloud systems All the interest to to see if we ever see that swing back if we start to get Consumer devices that you know, like you say like a private cloud or a hybrid cloud that you can run In your house if that ever becomes popular. I know there's a few things that do that out there They're just not widely known. Yeah, and the fact that uh, you know at the very least office I as soon as they came out with office 365 Um, I signed up for it because I liked the idea Of being able to pay a subscription and just always having the latest version of office So I think there may be always a place for certain pieces of software And in fact the fact that you got five accounts I got the you know two two nieces and a nephew in college that use You know some of my subscriptions for office Um, and so those type of things do make sense and and probably will continue Um, but yeah, so as like you said a lot of a lot of enterprise stuff We'll make it to the home. Just you know just by the natural flow I apologize for not using the buzzword edge when we were talking about hybrid and and partial on premise We should have been talking about edge computing. That's the buzzword. So There you go. If you want to impress your friends say you're living on you're not living in the cloud Microsoft browser Right and a member of you too. Hmm. Oh Oh, right that other edge Hey, thanks to everybody who participates in our subreddit You can submit stories of vote on them at daily tech news show dot reddit.com And our facebook group is still pumping along facebook.com slash group slash daily tech news show We've got stuff in the mail bag sarah. Yeah, we really do. Okay So the first one comes from al who said Tell the truth when you were talking about the story involving the new material They can extract moisture from desert air. This was what three days ago Weren't you thinking of uncle elon and anperu? moisture framing on tatooine Hmm. I was not I was thinking dune. I was thinking fremen and mohdeeb Uh, but now I feel silly that I didn't also think of tatooine. That's All right kids Uh, rich straffolino from lovely cleveland says I think apple really loses out to chromo s in education When it comes to handling user accounts the issue that ios is inherently a single user device This makes it difficult to share devices for schools with small budgets as you lose out on a lot of personalized content Meanwhile chromo s not only supports multiple users, but that experience is easily transferred to any other machine Without having to do an extensive backup and recovery process apples announcements do add some essential fleet management to the platform Which is key for success in education or in an enterprise deployment But the lack of user accounts seems like a major hurdle unless these are exclusively personal devices Uh, and we had a lot of people write in on one side or the other this issue issue But you can't debate that chromo s does have more flexibility For the different situations. Yeah, I think that makes a perfect sense And the fact that you know the os runs in our browsers is the huge part of it Right because you can use it on a google device or you can use it on any device Which is what makes it so portable. My daughter uses it You know for school work today and You know, so apple would have to build a platform that could support that containerization And then they would be able to compete but you know Google's done a pretty good job of really getting a foothold out there Got another email from russell who shed a little light on the fact that apple chose its At a conference yesterday at a high school not for no reason russell says I went to lane tech In chicago the school has a long history of being one of the top technical science and match high schools in chicago Match I think he means math It started out as more of a trade school early on with a lot of robust shopped and drafting courses preparing students to enter the skilled workforce Even toasted a full tour color printing operation when I was there It has evolved to focus more on math and science and college prep But still remains a lot of the technical routes to be sure Which is great. I mean obviously that's I apple chose it But I was not familiar, but I like the idea that it's you know named after me Of course Yeah, I I want to say ismet and tim on my freshman high school dorm floor at the university of illinois both went to lane tech I know they were both in computer science, but and they were both went to chicago vocational school Uh or not vocational school, but you know like a like a high school like this And I think it was lean Very cool, and I think it was Um, well, thank you to everybody who wrote in um got a lot of great emails in the last 24 hours So thank you and also thank you to chris ashley for being with us again Chris tell everybody where they can follow everything you do Oh, man, you can always find me on the smr podcast uh smrpodcast.com three Three bambas just recording and having a good time talking tech and other stuff in life Um, but uh, you can also just catch me up catch me on twitter at big chris ashley Yeah, uh, I let me vouch for the smr podcast.

It was overdue. I was like, what's going on here? What is this wet spot under my eyeballs? What are these? Might be an infection I hope so. I don't know. I was getting anxious. No, man. I supported Supported you way too late. I should have been supporting you It was one of those things where I finally at the end of the podcast when you say support us on patreon I was like, oh, right. I really need to do Yeah, thank you so much. Yeah, no, my pleasure But Just I mean you want to cry now? No No, my wife doesn't stay here. She can't eat less of it Maybe we could have a social once a month crying circle. All right. We can you know, just sure. Yeah Like instead of like a peyote thing, we just sort of like About like thank you for supporting my I would have gone drum circle, but peyote works. Yeah, ayahuasca. Yeah Yeah, sure. I mean, I don't really know the difference But you'll have to talk like Matthew McConaughey when you do it and you cry. All right. All right. All right. Yeah, like what else does he say? Bacon double cheeseburger. Oh Don't even Yeah, that's not one of my repertoire Okay, so chris. Yo, there's a um Maybe a regional radio commercial right now. This would be interesting Okay, because he would wouldn't necessarily have a carl's jr. In Washington dc Surrounding area. You probably have hearties, right? so Depending on where you are. Yeah Or the dmv as I understand it's called now the dmv. You got it. Where did you get that from del marva? I got friends in dc Okay, let's go. You got it right. Okay dmv 100% Anyway, carl's jr. Yes or no Do you have them? They are not in my immediate area, but they're not far from me either. Are they within 10 miles of you? 10 miles and you have both carl's jr. And hearties. You're saying any what part of this what state you're in depends on Where you are so all right, so let me give you a brief to kind of answer your question So there's not a carl's jr. That's that close that I can think of Um, but we do have what's called rory rogers Oh, I remember those so rory rogers At one point was owned by hearties. So for all intents and purposes, they were the same restaurant. Uh-huh I asked in fact, I used to work for rogers and That's hearties and then so carl's jr. Never really came to this area. So what happened was McDonald's came in and bought Roy rogers out from hearties And then but some of the war rogers in the area were privately owned so they were franchises They since have expanded. So now there's war rogers everywhere again Oh, weird for the most part and you know, the mcdonalds are here too But carl's jr. Is not necessarily here, but if I was like if I'm going up to uh, pennsylvania or You know if I've driven to ohio Um, right on the way. There's a carl's jr. You know, that's so it's about, you know, 30 minutes From here. So carl's jr. It's not out here, but royer rogers is and um, you know and also Of there's a hearties In the delmar area as well that I can think of there's still one that they kept that I think marriott kept Because it was like right on the interstate and it just makes a ton of money Because I don't think I don't I don't know if marriott ever actually sold it because originally was marriott owned War rogers and they sold the war rogers off to hearties Now I know I've said this story before but hearties bought burger chef like back in the early 80s And there was a place on interstate 70 in southern illinois where there was a burger chef next to a hearties Right and then when hearties bought burger chef They followed the corporate manual and changed all the signage to hearties So there was a hearties next to a hearties that absolutely happened. I worked at a war rogers were literally Five minute walk down the street. There was another hearties right on the corner So that and that that was actually I worked at two different locations where that happened like one See the other hearties Like if you went out the back window, you could see the other hearties. That's how close it was That means that restaurant must have been Drinking in customers constantly because I mean there's that would be enough business to have They they they really were because one that I worked at which was down the hill had the high school that which would come in for lunch Um, and then the other one had the apartment complex right directly behind it So they both had like, you know different customer base, but yeah, the other one was smaller So they would close it a little bit earlier and but yeah, they you know because war rogers Um and hearties they sold both chicken and burgers, right? So they they attracted two different types of uh customers Um, now all of this relates to Matthew McConaughey somehow cloudy with the chance of sass Uh, oh, yeah cloudy with the chance of sass. I like that one. That's really good. Yeah, that's really good Uh, but continue with the double western bacon chase burger. No, no Never want to hear that song again. So basically there's a Matthew McConaughey Matthew McConaughey, uh ad that's both on radio, but also um tv where it's just him saying And you sort of like imagine him naked bongoing you're like, no, I don't want this I want this. I just want a burger It's just it's just constant like you can't escape you turn on the radio here turn on tv It's gonna be on within the hour Um, you can't get away from it. Sarah is sick to death of it. It hopes it dies a famed royally death But she was right. Is that an ad campaign that exists in your area? I'm looking at right now trying to see where the closest Carl's Jr. Is to me. Um, I did not this Add first of all, I don't hear it that often because I don't listen to jazz radio Uh, but it did not bother me as much until you just said you picture him naked bongoing See, I'm sorry. Oh one side note. I'm not sorry Matthew McConaughey huge redskins fan Oh, really? Now why is that? I don't know. I don't know a cowboy's fan. Yeah, I don't know. I saw I saw that he was a redskins fan Okay, so speaking of weird states I don't know if you guys saw my tweet earlier today But I have a friend who actually lives in dc now, but grew up in new hampshire Okay, did you know That the state of new hampshire does not penalize adults for not wearing seatbelts Oh, really? They're the last holdout, huh? I did not know that If you're under 18 the rules are different if you're over 18 Don't have to wear a seatbelt. Don't have to have car insurance Oh Yeah, but what's odd is you have to do an annual inspection on your car, right? I think that's a thing. We got to do that in texas too. I mean, well, I mean, what a strange thing to be like Uh, live free or die. I'm not wearing my but what's well? I think what your sarah is saying is like they're so live free or die Libertarian about a lot of things but when it when it comes to your car inspection They're kind of tight asses about it. Well, there's two things right the car inspection You know, some states like virginia require them every year Maryland is you know, once you buy the car a new car it's inspected in and that's it So I agree with you on that. There's a lot of states that that have it differently But the insurance part of it some states do it where You if you own a new vehicle or you have a loan on the vehicle, you must carry insurance Whereas if you have a used vehicle, you don't have to carry insurance. Oh, yeah I feel like that's what illinois was like when I first bought my card in like 1986 It's probably changed since then I think yeah, so I wonder which one they would be but I'll be honest. I hate wearing a seatbelt, but I'm a big guy So, you know a lot of seatbelts until they started really making them where they can adjust up and down on the left You know on the on the wall side of the car You know a lot of times that my chest would make the seatbelts sit up and they'd be Cut me in the face and they let my left ear throughout my whole trip So I a seatbelts do annoy me what I'm trying to wear them more So you want to be thrown clear See I just did not realize that we were having these conversations still like should I wear this uncomfortable seatbelt? It's like I have to well, you know, it's weird I expect to go to prison for the rest of my life My my friend is also from New Hampshire and I remember she works for a company very well known company but she's saying like yeah, like all our all our Affiliates in Cal or the employees in California. You have to do really careful by how many hours they can work because California limits you to eight hours A day on the clock and like yeah, it's just really weird. We got to do all these special things It's like why is it special like doesn't everyone have to follow like an eight-hour day? Rule if you're a non salaried employee, but I guess that's not that's not true Well, I get yeah, it probably depends on the company too because I think most of the times the company is a you know Fighting to make sure you don't get eight hours a day I'll say that I gotta pay you over time Where was Blair witch filmed is that New Hampshire? Because that would explain a lot. I thought that was Baltimore What? Blair witch Yeah, like outside Baltimore. Really in Maryland Blair rich was in Maryland There's a park with the stand of trees. They shot it there. It's right outside where Wallace went to stay with his aunt and uncle You guys know, I'm asking seriously horse in Maryland Oh, look at that Are you are you suggesting New Hampshire is haunted or something? I always imagined New Hampshire as a lovely state with a lot of wooded area where the Blair rich live where witches live Of course, I thought that that's where they shot it. Well up there. Her name is Monica Oh, right. Yeah. Yeah Monique Well, there's a lot of french canate a lot of french canadians. Oh, yeah I don't know. I don't know anything about I don't know anything about these states. They seem great though maple syrup Uh skin You can get skiing in other states, you know, you should wear your seatbelts, but otherwise you seem like good people Yeah, some states don't have to wear motorcycle helmets. It's a short state. I mean by the time you don't have to in colorado That's for sure because I was just there and like it is jarring how many people on the freeway Are not wearing helmets on motorcycles, Florida You know, no, it's jarring is driving up to new england up from new jersey And as you go through the states, you see the level of of of aggressiveness Kind of loosely not actually I should say pretty closely correlated with the license plate And you know, there's there's there's particular, you know, uh regional Slangs slaying for certain from a certain class of driver from a certain state Starts with an M Mass everywhere That's everywhere. No, no, no. I literally was I we were driving and it was it was fine And then literally out of nowhere like these cars from massachusetts like everywhere has that Everywhere that's got cross-border plates, right? Illinois Everybody in missouri thinks the illinois drivers suck and vice versa On the on that st. Louis border and I don't think anywhere is an exception to that. Everybody well No, I don't think we talk about that in california, but that's Arizona I hear people complain about arizona drivers in LA all the time. I don't complain. I have I totally have And and the problem is that they're not aggressive enough. Yeah, arizona drivers are the worst. They're so slow They don't know where they're going I don't know that it's true. I apologize to any arizonans. What do you want an autonomous driver? Is that what you want in arizona? Yeah, I want people not to camp out in the left lane If you're going if you if you want to do 60 or 50 fine move to the far right Don't stay in the fast in the high, you know, i'm doing the speed limit. If you want to go faster, just go around You're breaking the law if you go around Is like That's actually the right argument. Oh my gosh. My grandpa used to do that But it's so annoying. He would drive 55. This is back with the speed limit was 55 He would drive 55 in the left lane because he said i'm saving The state money repairing the roads because the right lane gets worn down faster. Oh my goodness You actually I think there is probably not wrong There was a study that that michigan did of And found that actually having a slower speed does not necessarily make it safer What you want is the average speed that traffic actually travels at Because people always try to go a little faster and what happens is you'll have a mismatch of speed Yeah, because that speed is very dangerous. You're right. It's it's very dangerous, right because say the speed limit set at 55 But people have a natural tendency to cruise at 65 or 75 They're going to be whamming into traffic suddenly breaking and that's where you start having your traffic flow issues because now you have this kind of stop and go stop and go You know, well the ticket's impeding the flow of traffic, right? Yeah, should I get into the right lane? Please for my sake Do it for roger You know, it's not even me having to slow down. I'm happily the cruise I just don't like Driving and then stopping and driving if I have to go all the way in bumper to bumper traffic at 55 great Just don't want to go 55 watch a gun on 20 and then the five and then stop Sit there for a couple of seconds and then step on the gas go back up to 55. You better not ever move to maryland You'll be in trouble And the traffic out here is horrible. I will Let me ask you this because this is a this is a thing that I've always wondered I think that Delaware is real I've been to a spot up, you know up north on my way to new york called Delaware It better be sort of like incorporated in Delaware. That's what they sure sure sure llcs love Delaware Is it real? It looks and uh, when I go I never met anybody who grew up in Delaware I've never met anybody that's grown up in Delaware, but I I have I have Yeah, yeah I went to rahubeth beach uh when I was interning in washington dc And we stayed in the beach house of a couple who are cousins of a fellow intern And they had they were born and raised Delaware Damn us because uh everybody's pretty sure I was onto something Like Delaware is like a little bit lying sarah. I've never seen them since Right right well And on that note, I we will all say farewell and see you manana. Thank you so much chris for being on the show Thank you guys.
