 Coming up on DTNS, Virginia gets delivery by hovering drone. Lamar gives us first impressions on the iPhone, Nintendo Switch, and Sega Genesis Mini, and we all have thoughts on YouTube no longer considering some people verified. This is the Daily Tech News for Friday, September 20th, 2019 in Los Angeles, I'm Tom Merritt. And from Studio Feline, I'm Sarah Lane. Drawing the tech news you care about, I'm Len Peralta. And breaking in and messing up Len, I'm sorry. I'm Lamar Wilson. I was just so frantic here in Los Angeles. Sorry about that. I was so excited to be back. It's been years. It's been years. It's great, man. And real quickly, I'm the show's producer, Roger Chang, and now back here. We have all gathered together here today for one purpose. That was to tell you about the super storm that Len survived on Good Day Internet. If you missed that conversation, by all means, become a patron, patreon.com. We also got some of Lamar's thoughts on Apple Arcade on Good Day Internet today, but we are on DTNS now. So let's start with a few tech things you should know. Google announced the desktop versions of Chrome will get tab previews when hovering over a background tab. Initially, this would be limited to previews of title pages, but full thumbnail previews are planned as well. As a note, Safari and Microsoft's Edge have included tab previews for some time, so Chrome is catching up a little bit here. Chrome will also get updates to the address bar to provide faster answers to typed queries like weather or sports scores. Chrome will also let users set colors for their browser and specific tabs without having to install a full Chrome theme. Google says these updates will roll out over the fall. Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced that Google will invest 3 billion euros over the next two years to expand data centers across Europe, as well as investing 600 million euros in 2020 to expand data centers in Hamuna, Finland. To power this, Google has announced 10 new renewable energy projects in Europe, including two new wind projects in Finland that will double the company's renewable energy in a country and power usage for finished data centers, carbon free. Yeah, that's how they say it in Finland. Okay, I'm good. I'll ask Patrick about that to be sure, but I'm pretty sure that's right. Uber's probationary license to continue operating ride hailing services in London expires Wednesday less than a week away. Transport for London, remember, did not renew Uber's license in 2017 because of failures in reporting criminal offenses and conducting background checks. But then in 2018, a judge granted a 15 month probationary license after Uber made several changes to how it does its business. London Mayor Sadiq Khan has not responded to an assembly member's question about Uber's license renewal. So just keeping us on tenterhooks about whether Uber is going to get renewed or not. It's probably going to get renewed, but still. Something that also probably is going to happen. Reuters reports its sources say Fitbit has hired investment firm Quantalist Partners to explore a sale. Reportedly, Quantalist has urged Fitbit to consider a sale of the business for several weeks now, perhaps gaining interest from Google and private equity firms. Fitbit is number two behind Apple in the smartwatch market space and has a value of about $1 billion. Let's talk a little bit more about why you can't be sure it's me on YouTube anymore. YouTube has changed its method of verifying accounts. Now, the first change is just trying to combat the idea that a verified check means endorsed. A lot of people sometimes react as if that check mark means YouTube supports a channel. This is a problem for Twitter as well. So what YouTube's doing is instead of a check mark, or in the case of musicians, it was often a music note, verified channels of any kind will just have a gray background. So it's like it's just going to be black text on white from everybody. Unless you're verified, then it's black text with a little gray highlight. The second change is a little more complicated. Previously, any channel that reached 100,000 subscribers could request verification. And in the early days of YouTube, sometimes people like myself just got verified somehow. Not even sure how that happened. But starting in October, YouTube will only verify channels that it feels have a need for authenticity. It belongs to a brand like Nike or something. Public figure, celebrity, a musician who's well known, an artist, or any artist or creator that might be subject to impersonation. And they want to make sure that you know which is the real account. To get or even keep your verification, a channel will have to have YouTube consider it to belong to a well-known or highly searched for creator, artist, public figure, or company. Be widely recognized outside YouTube. Have a channel name that's similar to other channels so that you'll want it to have it verified so you know which one's the real one. And algorithms and humans are combining to consider these. And they sent out some notes this week to people saying, hey, you will no longer be verified after October, just so you know. Or if you're keeping your verification, they actually send notes to say you're going to keep your verification, but it's going to change from a check mark to a highlight. Yeah, so I received a letter that said I will be keeping mine. So I guess I won. I'm not sure how that works. You just, you know who you are now. I don't know who I am. Yeah. I want to say this excuse of very meaning in people. I call bowl on that without saying the full word. I just, I just don't see it. I feel like people understood that very, you know, remember verification started with Twitter, right? Or maybe I've never had me confused what that check mark means. I guess maybe they're trying to combat some of the more extreme channels that are really popular to not, you know, that check means endorses them. I get that argument. I just didn't see a problem here. I do want to comment on the wider effectiveness as a YouTube person. So I didn't, I didn't have our friends did, including Tay Zandi, which it hits in just a moment because he had an interesting point about his. This isn't necessarily people are mad because they're taking my verification. They're mad because it's this increasing idea that YouTube is just crapping on the creators like there's one thing after another that they do. They say they consult us, but they don't really. And, you know, we're just at a time where people are going to be monetized kids channels are being attacked. And now this and it's just like, you know, I just want to matter as a person and it just seemed like they do every little thing to just take that that away. And that's what really what it's about. It's not a pride thing saying I'm verified it's it's more so this issue. Yeah, I think that's right. I think this is about feelings because frankly, you should be verified. Let's say we were starting from scratch. You should be verified because you have a very high profile channel you post regularly. To be honest, my YouTube channel I post like once a month. It doesn't have that many subscribers. I don't use it for for that. So being verified like I wouldn't expect to be verified if this was brand new. And they said, you know what, we're going to get that verified because that channel doesn't have a problem. However, Daily Tech News show I would like to be verified. It's never been verified on YouTube, but I would like it to be to make sure people know like, yes, this is the real DTNS. It's a brand. That said, I think you're right. What's going on here is people are feeling like, well, wait a minute, last year you demonetized my channel because I didn't have enough subscribers. Now you're taking away my verification because I don't have enough subscribers. Why do I admit I've had that involuntary feeling of like, why even bother with YouTube and trying to build an audience there? Because they apparently just don't care. Yeah. That's definitely the feeling. Tezani mentioned on Twitter, he said, but why me? Why me? I mean, really, he's taking away my verification and I know him personally. He's one of my best friends. He wasn't being haughty there. He's like, I'm the definition of the listed criteria. He literally is like the person that needs to be verified as Tezani. People steal his videos all the time. They need to know that's the guy that's saying that chocolate rates all. Susan, I can't pronounce her last name. Do you anybody? Mujiski. Yeah. She responded. She, you know, PR her answer. She gets the frustration. They're going to work to, you know, address the issues, blah, blah, blah. I don't know. I normally am not pessimistic person, but YouTube has just been really weird this year. I think I understand why they did it this way. And it's another example of Google and YouTube having an engineer's mindset, which is one of the problems we have is that people perceive verification as us supporting something. And when some verified person does something controversial, we get the blowback. I think changing from the check mark to the highlight is a great solution to that. I agree with you, Lamar. It's not a huge problem. But hey, why not eliminate it altogether? And this seems to be a fairly elegant way to do it. You know, nothing much controversial about that. But then they said, well, what if there are people out there who are verified or got verified way back in the day and we're really not sure why or that they need it? Let's make verification something that is very not special but is used in particular situations that everyone understands and not just a badge of honor that everybody wants to get because they've been on for a long time. And so what you do there is you go through and you have an algorithm spit out a list based on some criteria of, okay, these are the most frequently posting people. These are the people with the most outside referrals. These are the people with the highest search index. And then you say, great, keep those people in and tell everybody else like everybody. Although, you know, to take away a verification that somebody wears as a badge of honor, whether or not it really means anything whether or not they deserved it based on their audience and their output and the nature of their creative videos. Why not just let the people who are verified stay verified so that so that they don't go nuts and then YouTube doesn't have to issue a statement on a Friday afternoon saying, sorry, we really didn't think this through. Once again, we've upset all the creators. It's like it they would just been so much easier to do it that way. Going forward here are rules. Yeah, totally. And that is the issue. I've never had a problem with the what I actually like the highlighting of my name and saying that I replied to a comment. I like that. You know, this but but to take away something when they've been. It just goes like, well, dang, what do I do now you take away my monetization, you let us, you know, celebrities are being featured in all the tonight shows are taking all the like what's left for me as a as a person so I get the feelings. I mean, they don't seem to be saying that people were mistakenly verified. I would sort of understand if they're like look a lot of people verified that that didn't really pass a high muster of verification but that's not what they're saying. So if if these verified people are literally verified why would you unverify and go well we used to be sure who they were. Algorithms rule man. That's what it is. That's what Sarah's right. It's just all about this computer. All right. Well, what about Twitter Twitter might be trying to do something to help us get along better on the Twitter's what are they doing the more. What are they doing so Twitter is expanding the test of its hide replies feature from Canada to now include the US and Japan. So high replies let you hide any reply to your post. So when you hide a reply, any viewer of your post thread will have to click on a plus symbol to see the hidden replies in this Canadian test. Twitter says the feature was mostly used to hide irrelevant, abusive or unintelligible replies. 27 of those whose replies were hidden said that they will reconsider how they interact on a platform. I like this. I feel like Facebook has done this for a while where you can kind of hide. You could delete a reply even yeah but but someone can still go and see what you what you did. I'm not. I like the idea. I think you can cause more controversy because like if I don't like what someone said says to me and I click hide and they go and see you know someone else sees what I'm hiding. Well, why are you hiding that you know it but you know I don't know I feel like it can cause more of a. Conversation that doesn't need to be had I would rather just it be invisible and just be invisible but that's me. Well, I think it's up to whether people use it judiciously right like if someone starts hiding all the posts that disagree with them then people are going to make a stink. But if someone hides something and then you click through and you're like oh yeah that's obviously spam. I you know that won't be that controversial so it kind of depends on how people use it which is why they tested it with the most polite nation on earth in Canada to be like well. Today responsible people used it by hiding unintelligible or irrelevant responses. Let's see how the US and Japan does it. I think on Twitter too. I know for me there are certain subjects that sometimes I can't help myself but I usually stay away from because I'm like it's just incendiary like you're just going to get all the troll replies. I know how this goes. I've been here before and I just don't want it associated with me. Now I can't stop people from doing that. I mean I could block them but but being able to have a little bit more control over the discourse that happens afterwards and yes I'm not deleting the replies. I'm merely hiding them. You can see them if you really want to. But I think it cleans it up for everybody else a little bit more or gives me the opportunity to. I agree. Yeah yeah I kind of like this. I agree with you Lamar that that there are some pitfalls and we'll see if it ends up being a problem and I wouldn't be shocked. But I do like the idea to say like hey let's let's have a let's have a thread system that is you know that allows you to to control the conversation you're having in a thread without having to delete or block or or mute or anything. Yeah, and I think today's a perfect example iPhone comes out I don't want any of the Andrew people talking to me so I will go in there and hide. The hashtags will be created. The alphabet's wing announced it will begin a drone delivery test program in Christian Berg, Virginia next month. Folks there will be able to get kids snacks and over the counter medications from Walgreens select packages from FedEx express and sweets and stationary from sugar Magnolia all flown to them. The wing drones will not land during pickup or delivery instead the drone will hover 20 feet in the air, and then use a tether to accept and drop off packages up to three pounds wing drones will cruise at 60 to 70 miles per hour in flight with a range of about six miles and deliveries to eligible neighborhoods in the town of about 22,000 are expected to take around 10 minutes each wing will not charge customers during the trial. I wish I wish it was here. I know this sounds good. I mean, this is not a first, you know, we're always quick to point out there's lots of drone delivery being tested in lots of places in the world but remember that wing is like a little airplane. It's not a quadcopter. So this is, you know, airplanes going to swing over your house tether is going to drop down. And then if it once it senses that the package has reached the reach the ground, it will automatically release it and take off so you don't have to deal with the drone yourself. And on the pickup side, the people at the Walgreens, they the drone comes over drops the tether down and then they just hook it up once the drone recognizes that the proper weight is at the end. It hauls the tether up into the into the cargo bay and then off it goes. I mean, And it solves a big problem. It solves. Well, not a big problem necessarily depends on your yard, but the problem of having to land the drone or the problem of dropping a package that might have stuff in it is going to break if you drop it from too high. Mm hmm. So what they need to develop is many Navy SEALs to come down with the tether, you know, and the lights, lights on and then just drop it and then go back up that that would be the best. Yes. In addition to the kids snacks, you should be able to order miniature plastic Army men from Walgreens, and they would just all drop down. Yeah, totally. Yeah, I mean, I think it's a good test. They even say they've got some defenses and if somebody goes in like once to like pull on the tether to pull the drone down from the sky. The tether will be released, and then the drone will go back to its landing zone for maintenance. I can see a dog jumping up and trying to grab that for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Think of the, yes, the new mailman. Oh my gosh, my dog would, Ray, Ray, the dog would definitely do this. I'm surprised that hearing Ray would do that. Okay, I raise the one who choose mail if she can get her mouth around it. Okay. And males who provide mail. Well, yeah, their hands stay on the other side of the door for everyone's safety, but yeah, this, I don't know, I think this is a great test. And as I said, it's not the first place to do delivery, but and it's a limited test. It's a small town. Yeah, limited selection of things that aren't really breakable and probably easily packaged. Yeah, exactly. If anybody's in the area and either is lucky enough to get their stationary tethered down or know somebody who did, let us know. Take a video. I know I want to see this. Yeah, yeah, order some goldfish or something from Walgreens and we'll send you a mug. Exactly. Tivo CEO Dave Scholl told CNN that Tivo plans to release a $50 Android TV streaming stick early next year. It would use Tivo software to recommend things to watch. So taking what you have on a DVR where it's gotten really good over the years if you haven't seen a Tivo in a while of saying like, oh, this is a show that you like to watch and new episodes there. Here's some stuff you might be interested in on streaming services you have because you can get streaming services on the Tivo DVRs now. So they're going to put that in an Android TV stick. I think that's a really good use of something you've developed and saying, well, there's people who don't need a DVR. Let's try to serve them as well. It does not appear to include a TV tuner. If you want that, you just buy a regular Tivo. Tivo also plans to unveil Tivo Plus, which would be software that aggregates content from multiple publishers similar to the Roku channel. This could show up on any of their devices and just be a place where you're like the Roku channel. You're like, I just want to watch something. Let me see what's available for free. Not mentioned in the interview with CNN, though, was a report from ZatsNotFunny.com that some Tivo users have started to discover that their DVR recordings start with a short pre-roll ad that they can fast forward through, but we're not expecting. Tivo hasn't commented on it, but it seems to be a test that they're rolling out there. I guess maybe if they said, OK, we're going to start doing this in lieu of paying for the Tivo DVR subscription. Right now you pay $15 a month or so. This is how that much? Maybe if you agree to the pre-roll ads, you don't have to pay that. I don't know. Wow, I didn't know Tivo was still that expensive. I used to be a Tivo lover like years ago, and then it kind of moved off to not needing or using their boxes. But yeah, first, I didn't know they were that expensive. Second of all, I didn't even know they were still around. It's cool to hear that. Well, and that's the thing, right? There's a lot more competition for Tivo now. It's easy to forget that Tivo didn't go anywhere. Yeah, exactly. There's a limited number of people who really want to use a DVR for over the air, but there's a significant number. And what happened was HomeRun and ChannelMaster kind of took enough of that audience that Tivo wasn't able to survive on replacing their lost cable subscribers with that. They don't seem to have a really lucrative deal with any of the cable companies whose subscribers are declining anyway. So it's the right move for them to go into a streaming stick and say, hey, we've developed some really good software, which they have. We should get into that game. We should start competing with Roku and Apple TV and Fire TV. That makes sense to me. It's an uphill battle. I'm not saying they're going to win it, but that makes sense. Putting pre-roll ads before DVR recordings just seems to be punishing an audience that's going away. I don't know about that. Yeah, I agree with you. Cool. It's a weird situation. All right. Before we wrap up today's show, Lamar has got some insights into a bunch of hardware. I do? Yeah, you do, man. I know you're excited about the Nintendo Lite. So let's start with that. I wanted you to tell us a little bit about what should people know if they're thinking about that Nintendo Lite and they're hoping that Nintendo Lite lands on their desk today. Yeah. So Nintendo Lite is being delivered today. It's $100 less than the regular Nintendo Switch. And it's the switch that doesn't switch. It's all in one little device that's smaller. And so my opinion on it is this. If you have a Nintendo Switch now and you're already traveling with it, you're comfortable traveling with it, you use it, you don't need it. And the thing I'm going to say in my video whenever I get a chance to film it, whenever they come, is this. Just because Nintendo makes something doesn't mean you have to buy it because so many Nintendo fans think they get so upset that this thing exists. It's like, it's not for you. And you know, it's, if you're good with your Switch, don't buy this one. You can be a waste of money. It's a compliment to Nintendo that people want to buy everything they make. Yeah. Yeah, I get what you're saying. Absolutely. The second person will be me. Now, I keep my Switch hard. I'll say hardware. It actually it is in the dock. I don't tend to like to travel with it because it's just, it feels a little delicate. So this I could throw my book bag. I'll throw in my car in the side door. It's more rugged. I'm okay with it. That's why I'm getting one. And so, and so if you're that person, then you might want to spend extra couple hundred dollars. Third group, families, kids, it's a perfect device. It's almost the price point of the 3DS, maybe 50 bucks more than what a 3DS typically costs, because those are fading away. And so, yeah, you $100 difference to us. Tech people may not be a big deal, but for families and for ordinary people, that's a huge deal. That's what, that's what made the difference between Xbox one and PS4 when they were both launched at $100 difference. So people do care about the price. So I think for kids, it's going to be a great device. Or again, for me, just an extra one that you can throw anywhere to use. And so, yeah, it's going to be $199. And yeah, different colors. And I'm definitely can't wait to get mine today. And the thing to remember is if you don't have the Nintendo Switch online service, if you move your saved games and data from your switch to your Switch Lite, it deletes it from the Switch, right? Yeah. Like you have to store it in the cloud to be able to access it on both machines if that's what you want. Absolutely. Because I have two switches now. And that's what, yeah. So as long as you have that online, you're good. You're good. You can sync and re-download your games. Now, the other console that's coming along is the Sega Genesis Mini. Are you excited about that? I am. Okay. I guess so. Yeah. So I did a boxing of this yesterday on my channel. I did not, we were talking about this pre-show. I did not grow up with a Sega. My home was Atari 2600 and then Nintendo. You know, and back then you could, I mean, unless you're really privileged, you didn't have all of them. So you chose one, your parent chose it for you, really. And then you chose your friend who had the other. I didn't have friends. And they got chance to play. So this is my first jump in the Sega. And I got to say, so it's 40, they put 42 games on here, actually. They say 40, but two bonus ones. And, you know, of course they have a couple of Sonic games, but they have some really good, uh, classic games on here. I won't sit here and read all of them to you. But, um, like I wasn't impressed with the lineup. And they, I was like, you know what, they play really well. And they give you two full controllers. Like the controls look great. The controllers aren't many. They're full size. They're full size in a USB. And I got to say, I had a ball playing on this yesterday. Just play some of these older games. And I simply, I'm not really into eight bit, which is good cause this is 16 bit. So, so yeah, I have no complaints. 7999. If you're kind of feeling nostalgia, you want to, you know, just buy this to be a collector or just to get in a Sega like me for the first time. I think it's a great investment. I'm sure like I'm QVC right here. Please buy this today. Yeah. He's kind of from the bar. He's keeping his. Exactly. I have no complaints about it. And yeah, folks who want to mess with emulators, you got a much wider selection of games to choose from and everything. And that's definitely an option for some people, but a lot of people don't want to, don't want to go down that road. So this, this is a cool thing. Plus you get, some people just want the nostalgia of seeing the form factor and all that. It's really nice to see on your desk or wherever you're going to keep it. That's why I got it. I do think it's funny that people think things look smaller from their childhood because they're bigger. And so what we do is we make them even smaller. Yeah. No, you're right. Feel even more adult, I guess. Before we wrap up, I know you just got your iPhone 11 Pro Max dropped on your desk right before the show. Yeah. I dropped it on my desk when I did the unboxing. It literally fell out of the box. People have been freaking on the video like you spent $1,400 and you dropped it. I did. They talk about how durable it was. So there you go. It's your first test. And it won. It wanted durability. When I tell anybody to buy this, if you already have the 11, what's this, the 10 max, whatever this access. No. I don't know. Yeah. Whatever this one was called. 10 s max. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. There's, I mean, unless you just a camera hit, if you're a camera hit, yeah, go get it. But I think the biggest improvements, man, was just an iOS 13. I think, I think that's more of an impressive thing. But you know, you know, again, I'm a yearly operator because I do this for a living and just because I like spending $1,400 a pop. I don't know what I was thinking, but yeah, I haven't had a chance to test out the camera or anything, but it's on my desk and I'll do a video on it next week. Yeah. Check it out. Go subscribe to that channel, folks. If you want to, want to keep up on what Lamar's thinking about that. Yeah. A lot of stuff that Lamar gets to test out. You get to talk about on our subreddit, submit stories and vote on them at daily tech news show. Let's check out what's in the mail bag. Oh, Daniel wrote in and said, okay, so you were talking about Amazon's recommendations and how it can be a little confusing. This is a couple of weeks ago. Daniel says, unknown quantities. And I find this anytime I search for something on Amazon or New Egg or Target or Best Buy or any online store. I get frustrated from the featured and recommendation items. So I'm going to go ahead and check it out. I'm going to go ahead and check it out. I get frustrated from the featured and recommendation items. Does this mean most popular? Is it the best quality? Highest paid to list higher in the rankings? The company's overstocked or keywords match the gamified SEO product description? I'm surprised that Amazon is the only one that's getting in trouble for this. Yeah. The reason Amazon is because they have the market dominance, but you're right. If Target had the market dominance, they'd probably be the ones under the gun for it. I think my answer to Daniel is, yeah, it's probably all of those at different times or in different combinations. But I think you're expressing a universal frustration is like, wait, it's recommended, but why? I got to admit, I buy products based on, if it says recommended by Amazon. Oh, okay. Yeah. When it comes to like some adapters or chords, especially that I need, because there's so many weird brands that I do look for that certification, whether it's certified or not, or it's just because they have excess of them in their brand. Well, it's that editor's pick thing. It's like, I don't necessarily know the editor. I could hate the editor. I could hate their style. I could hate their attitude. But you see that little star and you're like, okay, this must be the good one. That editor's a VSCO girl. I know it. I was caught up the other day. What does that mean? It's called a VSCO girl. We did a whole episode of It's a Thing about VSCO girls a couple of weeks back. There's not a short answer, but it's kind of like a, like a hip girl of today who wants to look good on Instagram. Hey, okay, that is me. Okay. That's totally you. Yeah. Absolutely. And then real quickly from Nth Mike in our DTNS Slack, Relay FM has been raising money all month for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in Memphis. They've blown past their original goal of $75,000. They're almost at their revised goal of $175,000. And as part of this, Steven Hackett and Mike Hurley, longtime listeners of DTNS. Mike, he's been on the show a lot in the, especially in the early years. They're hosting a live video podcast for Relay FM from 4pm to 10pm Eastern. So 1pm to 7pm Pacific on Friday. So if you're still listening on September 20th, Friday, go check it out on Twitch and you can, you can help them meet their goal or even surpass their goal again. So thank you Nth Mike for sending that out. And good luck. Go, go Mike and Steven. I hope you smash even more goals. Yeah, I love St. Jude. I really do. I like supporting him. It's a really good one. Yeah, you're absolutely right. So we check in with Len Peralta, who's been drawing up a storm this entire show. Yes, we should. Len, what have you drawn for us today? Well, with the release of the new iPhone, Humongo and the tiny, tiny Switch Lite, you can say that gaming is getting bigger and smaller. And that's exactly what this is. It's sort of a weird dichotomy. It's these huge phones that you can play games on, but also these little itty-bitty tiny little Switch Lights, itty-bitty, tiny, tiny stuff. And that's what this is. This guy holding this huge Humongo iPhone and this guy, this other little kid playing with a Switch Lite, which is like microscopic. That's a little bit exaggerated there. Sure, sure. Len, I love you. I just want everybody to know that like publicly. I love you too. This is the greatest thing. I love this so much. Thank you so much. This is so good. It cured by trypophobia. Yes. I was worried about that. Yes. Just to know that if you do get this print at my Patreon at patreon.com forward slash Len, or at my online store, Len for all the store.com, you may get triggered by the trypophobia there. I don't mind this right now. Oh, excellent. Well, thank you so much. Everybody, you join in as well. That'd be great. Yes. Thanks also to Lamar Wilson for being with us. Lamar had been too long. So nice to see you again. Let folks know what you've been up to. Behind this digital thing right now. Oh, okay. So, um, sorry, that was, that was a crazy transition.
