 Wasn't too much like that because that particular accent although very regional was actually fading away There's a there's a It is as fast as you say you just sound you sound like you sell a good drug so like a drunk leprechaun You just insulted all of New England. I didn't know Maine was full of that They might be my rainbows in Maine was settled by drunk leprechauns now That is not a slur that the leprechauns came over on a whiskey ship. Yeah Okay, that's how Maine started that's a preview of a show Brian Ibbett and I are going to record called answers to everything Actually found I found an old document. I'd written up for another show I was gonna do like this like 10 years ago that I wrote this doc It's like it just tries to try to explain Common phrases and their origin and it's complete nonsense and I was like, what was I on when I was writing this? Because there's like six episodes written out and I'm just like I'm gonna record this at some points. Wow There's a show that actually does that I'm trying to remember it's on the history channel Or they they explain the history of specific phrases. You can't get there from here You can't that's the only I remember that from the SNL skit And they had it was like a jeopardy. You want the old Palma place All right, I'm going to start the show you guys ready The Daily Tech news show is brought to you by listeners like me to find out more of it's a Daily Tech news show comm Slash support. I am not starting the Daily Tech news show is brought to you by because I forgot to do this yesterday So there's this little thing in audio hijack called instant on Many of you may know it Don't hear audio. Okay, so I'm not getting any audio. Can you hear me? All right? Can you hear me now? Yes, I Could not I still can't hear Tom. I hear Tom. I see Tom's lips move Yeah, I saw and I waited for him to I saw my name go by and this can't hear anything What's nothing? I'm an audio hijack and then Gone he's still going so the chat room says they can hear us and I at our I as in myself, but not you Tom. Oh and W. Scott says it's coming through a GR But not on YouTube and TV is my girlfriend's Yeah, you guys can hear me on there. Oh, okay. I Think audio hijack probably did something weird To my audio thing is I could still see my levels in the hangout Not sure, but yeah, I saw you do the intro. I'm just like, oh crap Cannot hear anything was all messed up, too. Any of you listening on the live stream probably knew that. All right Let's try this again. Shall we? Hey Apologies for the delay. Here we go. Well, I need control. Oh, yeah, sorry. I Will give you the control There you go. Okay three two The Daily Tech news show is brought to you by listeners like me to find out more of us the Daily Tech news show com slash support This is the Daily Tech news show for Tuesday August night 2016 I'm Tom Merritt joining me today senior associate editor at CNET and man about podcasting. I as actor That doesn't mean I'm the man about podcasting or I do not casting something like yours Just a little new in GFQ shows too, right? Yeah, I'm on gfqnetwork.com. I've got finite comedy calm I've got CNET calm. I'm on DTNS right now. I mean I got everything going. He's everywhere He's everywhere remember chicken man. Nobody does nobody remembers chicken man, but that was his phrase. He's everywhere He's everywhere. We're gonna talk about Facebook's new ad Policy one thing will make you happy and one thing will make you sad. It doesn't matter which side of the issue you're on It's like white rabbit Nintendo made archive.org take down its copies of the Nintendo power magazines. Sadly, but Hero archivist Jason Scott at archive.org has put up a new collection of Amiga software and Intel just bought an Andy Rubin backed company called Naravana and ERV not like the band that brings machine learning into the silicon here are some more top stories Okay, so an almost Undetectable malware platform that has apparently been active since 2011 has been discovered on 30 or so security targets for the first time in Separate reports researchers at Kaspersky lab call it project Sauron That's the name everyone's using by the way because it's the better name Symantec did lovely research. They called it REM sec just not catching on But both companies agree that it is likely a state-sponsored piece of malware It's just too sophisticated and would have cost a lot of money to develop It's it's kind of crazy. It resides in your memory not your memory in your computer's memory as That would have been really sophisticated It resides in memory as a binary large object making it hard for antivirus to detect. It also Has a unique profile every time it infects a target. It never reuses an IP address I never reuses a server a domain name It collects passwords crypto keys and more can also collect data from air gaps computers by using USB Drives with a virtual file system that windows can't see and otherwise appears to be an approved device It was found infecting organizations both governmental and non-governmental in Russia Iran Irwanda China Sweden Belgium and some Italian speaking countries Is this the malware hide-and-seek champion right now or is there something awesome forgetting? I think if we were to hold a an Olympics. Oh wait not gonna use that word No, if we were to hold a championship of malware, this would be the current reigning champion It is it is really hard to find even if you find it once. It's hard to create a signature to find it again it does some crazy things with air gapping and It just lies dormant So it's not only hard to detect but it doesn't do much the only reason they found it in the first place According to Kaspersky was a little bit of weird network activity That kind of looked like a password check which resides in memory and just make sure that a password is meeting certain Parameters of strength while it is created But it turned out it wasn't turned out it was this piece of malware projects are on that sounds really really interesting I want to read more about that let's talk about Twitter though Twitter's expanding its moments featured to selected influencers and other partners Moments shows a curated section of tweets around an event and will show up in a moments tab on the user's profile Twitter says the ability will eventually roll out to all users. So make your moments There do you do you ever look at moments? I do I was using it just the other day because I saw the story I might well access using the other day and then I saw the story I looked at it again It seems like you know much more magazine-y kind of way to show things I like the way it presents the information But I think it just adds to the Twitter confusion as to what are you trying to be Twitter because they still don't have that down I Think they're trying to be live They've said as much and moments Certainly leans into that. It's like hey these are things that are happening right now And you can follow along as they happen with all the tweets We have something called collections which all of us can do right now, but it's very timeline oriented This is much more visual. It gives you a little more control. I I It's a classic situation of this is not the thing that's going to save Twitter I always prefer things to be rolled out to everyone But I get why they want to build some momentum by working with partners on it and and kind of flush out any of the Quarks of it before they had handed over to everybody They have to do a lot more with moments to put it front and center for me Though before I really start to look at Twitter as a magazine and every other Moment-like service out there say flip board Has had its peak and then fade it away. I'm not sure it's the thing That we want from Twitter There's also the fact that when I looked at moments it reminded me of Facebook paper the other app that basically took a Facebook feed and made that Magazine like format with Facebook abandoned after a while because it wasn't having the same user interaction So it kind of pains me to see Twitter kind of following a and already dead method that Facebook tried and like to flip forward other magazine like or Presentations, I don't know if that's just the best thing for Twitter I feel like they should just be Doubling down on live just be like look here's Periscope put it in and let's just go Yeah, give me something right off the main page of Twitter that makes me want to pay attention Here's what's happening now and and it could be moments like Absolutely, I think they've they're on to something with the design of it But not segregated out and very much giving me the feeling of I'm tuning into something I'm I'm being exposed to something I didn't know was happening and that's what moments has tried to be up till now It was curated by an editorial team, but it was always in a tab and it's going to continue to be in a tab So I just I look at Twitter and I think you guys are the ones who do live best already You're just haven't figured out the right button to push to make that be something to propel you forward To two things while watching the Olympics make me think this one is NBC is putting in their lower-thirds for all of their presenters a Facebook ID not a Twitter ID So Facebook beat them on that partnership But when Michael Phelps yet last night had a glowering expression While a competing swimmer was sort of taunting him in the room before they headed out all the memes That showed him as the Emperor and were hilarious were on Twitter You could not find them very easily on Facebook. Everything was on Twitter They they just naturally have that advantage and they haven't figured out how to capitalize on it Yes, kind of one day they'll figure it out when they get bought by somebody else You think it's gonna take that it's gonna take an act. I honestly do somebody else to get I'm not being a doomsayer. I really don't know is best bet is that a being owned by somebody else Google is testing a new customization option for its virtual assistant Google now a new feature called Explorer interests gives a wide collection of visual options for the types of content a user would like Google now to track it starts with wide categories like people sports and TV And then you can drill down into that into lots of subcategories like actors Particular actors that you would like to follow or not follow this would be an extension of the existing toggle switches that you have now That are more limited in their selection Android police spotted the test in the wild and Google told tech crunch it is an experiment to test the look and feel but Google doesn't have anything to announce about availability and the Smarter Google now gets the better and that was one of my favorite features on the Google app and on Android in general Just to get that thing really powerful Yeah, looking at this. I was very much Jealous because I have tried to go into Google now and say no I know I live in Los Angeles I don't care to hear about what every little thing that happened with the Anaheim angels They don't follow that team and trying to find that selection was ugly certainly It wasn't hard per se But it this looks like a much more usable way that I'd want to go in and play with and really customize Google now for me When Google now would be close to what I wanted I would not say dismiss this. I'm like you're close Google. You're really close I'm gonna click the thing that's close to it and hopefully you'll figure out over time So I didn't want to discourage it which is a really weird way of feeling about now. Yeah They are striking the right balance of saying we're not getting rid of proactive alerts We're still gonna look at what we know about you and try to give you things We think you need to know but we're also gonna let you have a little control over the things We wouldn't have expected you want to know or the things we think you want to know and you don't want to know About and I like that and we haven't talked about Google in a while. Let's keep talking about Google Who are they they're this little company, but they rolled out a new update to its most popular You know it's the maps app in introducing a Wi-Fi only mode once the mode is enabled Maps will go offline when you're not on a Wi-Fi network limiting users to downloaded maps But saving on mobile data the update also lets users save maps to an SD card So you don't have to keep it on your main memory there Google also rolled out a new feature for users in Indonesia Integrating ride hailing services like uber grab and gojek along with price estimates and arrival times. This is huge Some people in the United States may not think this is such a big deal if you have really good data But it's gonna be huge in large parts of the world that have limited data coverage or or restrictive data caps Rural areas places like that if you need these maps Because it you already had the ability to download the maps for offline viewing which was a huge boost But they take up space and if you can't afford a huge data connection You might not be able to afford a phone that has a whole lot of space either But you may have an SD card that has a lot of space and I put the maps over there a big fan of this Yeah, I still don't understand and I mean I understand technically But I don't understand how we keep promoting SD cards is like hey you get all this extra memory Except you can't really use it for everything. It's not like a floppy drive, right and yeah It's I think that's just Google's figuring out. Okay. What do people understand? That's what the nexus line has no SD card slot I still think is a little strange. Yeah, because the idea is where do your apps reside? I think that was the thing that you just scare Google the most if you put an app and you moved it to an SD card Took the SD card out and you're like what happened to my app? I don't understand they want everything to be super easy But I think they need to do a bit of education as to what the SD card really is for and I think this is actually a Good way to do it Yeah, because I look at it and I think it should work like a USB drive, right? Because that's the way an SD card works on my my laptop. I could put whatever I want on it So yeah, it takes some education at DEF CON security researcher and electrical engineer Anthony Rose and researcher Ben Ramsey presented their findings of tests of 12 Bluetooth smart locks actually they tested 16 of them But 12 Bluetooth smart locks from quick lock I blue lock Plantrasco C. Oh mate Ella cycle V on's okey-dokey and mesh motion Failed basically. That's the short version of this story You may not recognize a lot of those names and you probably don't want to buy them four of the locks. They tested transmitted passwords in plain text Let me just let that sink in just put your passwords out there in plain text now granted if nobody's standing around you with The Bluetooth scanner you're likely not to have a problem with that because you're only going to use this when you're near your lock But that's not good practice at all to set the passwords twice Allowing it to be changed and thereby freezing out the owner One encrypted the password, but you could still in intercept the encrypted password send it to the lock and unlock the lock one entered an error state when the encryption key was fuzzed and Unlocked the lock so you just needed to confuse it and you could get in others required slightly more sophisticated approaches Involving man in the middle of tax etc. Researchers said they failed to hack four locks made by Kwikset and August those used properly Encrypted connections to factor authentication etc. Wait a Kwikset's been making locks for forever essentially in August They had I think they had a Kickstarter when it came out to their product and it's the scale isn't it? That's crazy and the test the August it's seen that like we love the August lock I've seen that so I'm really glad to see that but to see everything else that's scary I mean, it's a lock you want it secure right and and many of the I guess It was a little confusing They said they heard back from a couple of these but they also said they really only got a response from one So I'm not sure what they meant by that but but none of them said they have fixed these vulnerabilities and one even Specifically said they don't plan to fix the vulnerability one took their website away, which is not a good sign it's Basically, don't buy any of these locks until you hear that they are secure But but the positive side is Kwikset and August both got a vote of approval there I've I've used both of these the Kwikset app is not nearly as smooth as the August lock But it works fine the August lock system seems to work great. I've actually thought it was pretty good Okay, that's like by the US Office of Management and Budget They released the final mandate Monday that almost all code produced by government agencies must be made open source ish The federal source code policy requires internally developed source code to be shared with other federal agencies and a minimum 20% Must be released publicly the public open source code system will be tested in a two-year pilot program Code will be housed at code.gov which will launch in the next few months No particular license is required But the policy refers to the free software foundation definition as a guideline National security agencies will be exempt and operate under previous rules Now I don't I I'm tempted to be that guy who's like oh they didn't go far enough So so let me just say I think this is a good program. I think it's smart to Encourage agencies to share their source code with others I think it's smart to take a two-year pilot program to make sure they know how to do this, right? And and even the 20% is a good minimum to say like let's get people used to it before we raise this And make hope make make the majority of code open source It's it's it's leading people to get comfortable with the idea because open source is scary to people who aren't familiar with it I understand that it is usually more secure though because you have more eyes on it It is the federal government's paid by our tax dollars So we should get the benefit of things that they make And they obviously are exempting national security because there's entirely different considerations with that But why create your own website? I as white why not just use github? I don't know maybe they don't they think I do a better job or they can take it offline Maybe I don't know but what I can take anything off the internet what's on the internet I do like the idea even though this seems a little bit slow and moving the idea that federal agencies are talking with each other That's always been this weird thing. It's almost the the silos. We're like. Oh, you're this other agency I'm not gonna like give you anything of mine, which is moronic since we're all working for the same, you know Country so you might want to have a unified front on that like the center of having open source At least you'll have all of these agencies looking at the code and to go wait a minute We can improve this faster. It may not might not be the ideal solution, but it's better than it was Yeah, I agree. It is mostly good. It's 20% good at minimum Put it that way could be even better. We'll see how it goes though But and also we have a new administration coming in at the beginning of next year one way or another So it will be interesting to see if that new administration carries through on this program, which I hope it does Thanks to all those who participate in our subreddit submit stories and vote on them at daily tech news show dot reddit.com Big thanks to slam mess me Mack when you XIT Abituela Condolce another J.

That's a look at the top stories All right, so as I mentioned at the top of the show Facebook announced It's changing how it treats ads and ad blockers Company is going to analyze how ad blockers detect ads and then somehow change their code So that the ads are indistinguishable from general content Company also introducing a change to its ad preferences tool that you can find at facebook.com Slash ads slash preferences that gives you the ability to see what brands are targeting you and choose to prevent the targeting if you wish This does not affect the mobile version of Facebook I mean the mobile app of Facebook doesn't have the ability to do ad blocking anyway the mobile version On the web is not going to be affected by this Andrew Bosworth vice president of Facebook's ads and business platform told the New York Times ad blockers are a really bad solution to the problem They like we know ads are disruptive ad blockers don't work But that doesn't change the fact that page fare estimates 200 million worldwide users of ad blockers exist on the desktop 420 million use ad block on smartphones and Facebook says they have a solution now I as I want your opinion on this They say they're not paying or like we are not paying the ad blockers, which would be one way get get themselves whitelisted They're not doing that According to the New York Times step one is they take aim at the signifiers and digital ads that blockers use to detect Whether something is an ad step two make ad content indistinguishable from non advertising content somehow Step three profit. I made up step three, but the first two steps are in the New York Times article We have no details on how they say they're doing this yeah, so I'm trying to figure out this concept of making the content and ads the same and Usually most sites like you know, let's say a Google They'll add a little tag someone says this is an ad or your paint This is a paid for placement and that should be a signifier So to turn off that kind of I that that signal seems a little bit odd I don't know what how that's gonna work in practice my concerns really for the user when they're going through their news feeds if they see a bunch of stuff that they don't realize as ads or that this is Sponsored content so it might create this backlash towards Facebook where you're seeing this information that you really don't want to get And that's why they're saying oh, yes Your ad preferences will be powered up and you can actually see ads you want to see I'm not against ads Okay, the only reason I ever use an ad blocker really is because I have mobile data problems I'm like I do not want to be loading all of this crap on my phone Using up that data connection where I can actually you know see what I need to see like you know directions or something I just really think it's it could really backfire with Facebook if they don't do it the right way Yeah, and it is interesting to me that because the only way to really make your ads indistinguishable from other content is to Not set cookies not put those trackers in like you say which means that they would just be serving ads in General and all they would know is that they were served Maybe they'd be able to on the back end Look at a server log and correlate a served ad time with a request from a user With that you know with without ad blockers being able to know there There's some magic they could do back there But here's something I found in a separate story that might shed some light on this Procter and Gamble announced cutting down on Facebook Targeted ads now a lot of people are misreading this and thinking this means P and G is cutting back on the amount They're spending on Facebook. That's not what's happening. Park Procter and Gable is not cutting back their ad spending. They're cutting back Targeted ads chief marketing officer Mark Pritchard told the Wall Street Journal We targeted too much and we went too narrow and now we're looking at what is the best way to get the most reach But also the right precision they they tell a story about how a Campaign for Febreze Originally targeted households with big families and sales stagnated They didn't then change their Facebook campaign to just target everybody over the age of 18 and sales picked back up so what's happening and several aspects experts have said this is People are no longer Getting a lot out of targeted ads in fact pivotal research analyst Brian wiser told the Wall Street Journal The bigger your brand the more you need broad reach and less targeted media so what all this means then is that the big money is Not in targeted ads which gives Facebook a little room to say well We'll let people opt out of certain targets and We can serve some ads that can't tell exactly who they're being delivered to but we can prove they're delivered And that's gonna be good enough for Procter and Gable You know when you were talking about the whole eventually profiting on this I was thinking how does Facebook make money on on this idea if they can't really track you and I was thinking you know what they do have rivals with Google and and now Verizon's yahoo and AOL combination So maybe the fact that they actually can say literally hey, we know people saw this We know for a fact people have seen are these ads now whether or not they have the same reach and we can see what they're Doing later on not the same, but it actually could lead to them actually charging Potentially higher rates I don't know to see if they can make more money on ads that people see because yeah Who else to see I mean, I think that's a fair point. I thought about that with the targeting Once you deliver an ad through a system that allows the user to control whether they're targeted or not You should be able to therefore say this is a higher value target But some ad companies are skeptical of that They're like look if you go from a million impressions to 5,000 targeted impressions those 5,000 targeted impressions better give you a good return Because otherwise they're still not worth it So it's it's it's I there's a lot more There's a lot more than what's going on here than than meets the eye I think I was thinking about the alternatives as well when it comes to Facebook what else could they have done when it comes to this they could do nothing and lose money on ads They could notice ad blockers and go ahead Here's a giant takeover like wired has so they're like put us on the white list You can't use Facebook until you do this or they could offer a pay version of Facebook So this might be the least Intrusive I guess actually the second least intrusive so their alternatives are really slim when it comes to what do you do when you work? On an ad business, so we'll see what exactly the I Mean it's it's a billion dollar ad business to like it. It's just it's it's a crazy crazy ad business All right, we're having a little connection problem with IS but hopefully we'll get him back Let's get to our pick of the day Ryan the DJ has a pick of the day for people who love to be organized and who like Owen stone Don't like subscriptions the app is called pocket informant by fanatic software And it's available for Android iOS and is in early access release for Mac OS with a full 1.0 set to release soon It can sync multiple calendar sources task lists lists feature notes and contact management There's a focus view that gives you a summary There's an Apple Watch companion app and the company is planning to future future expansions with options for more enterprise level features And eventually a Windows version best part is the app is a one-time purchase. This address is Owens Frustration they offer their own sync service if you want it That's $50 a year, but you don't have to use it You can sync with Google Evernote to do iCal and iOS reminders. I forgot to do even was around but yeah is a It is a All-in-one solution. I again, this is a pick from a listener from Ryan. He loves it You can check it out on your own seems to get really good reviews on Google Play It doesn't have that many reviews on iTunes unfortunately pocket Informant comm is the place send your picks to feedback at Daily Tech news show comm and you can find more picks at Daily Tech news show comm slash picks All right, let's get to our message of the day Natron wrote in and said My bank says the credit card purchases that I have six months to submit a dispute for a defective product That should be covered under warranty that the manufacturer isn't honoring so a class action lawsuit might not be People's only recourse in my case. I was having trouble getting my Nexus 5x repaired by LG They returned it to me, but it still doesn't work and I'm gonna see how this plays out now This doesn't change the law For that we were talking about yesterday if you missed yesterday's show There is a law in the books in the United States that says you can't prevent people from Affecting their own repairs or hiring a third party to repair an item You can't but you can't basically void their warranty because of that The burden of proof is on the manufacturer in the US to show That their repair hurt something and voided the warranty But most manufacturers don't pay any attention to that and of course we had several people point out Yeah, Apple does this to Microsoft does this Google does this everybody does this But it is in fact violating the law and the reason it's it's carried on is that They know nobody's gonna come in and sue them So they just let it go what natron is pointing out is not a change in the law And and certainly an easier reaction than a class action lawsuit He's saying hey your credit card might have covered you This is a practical way to address it It's not it's not gonna fix the underlying problem But if you're in a position where you're like, I can't afford to sue the company and they're saying avoided my warranty Maybe you can at least go use your credit card to do that. Well, I'm gonna jump in here I heard and I'm gonna ask is it Unfortunately my camera seems to be a little laggy, but you'll hear my voice Is this time for something equivalent to you know, so when you buy an automobile you get what they call lemon laws Which will cover you to the point that if I think it's after five or six repairs The dealership or rather the the car company needs to buy it back from you at what you paid for because it is defective I mean would it make sense to to see some sort of legislation along that one? Oh a separate thing if you have a piece of Equipment that you get have to keep getting repaired But that doesn't solve the the underlying issue, which is I only had one thing wrong It was an HDMI connector with bad and because I had gone in and replaced the hard drive and didn't cause any damage when I did it The company can say oh you've voided your warranty by opening it up and and that is against the rules That is against the law. All right. We we seem to have aya's back Somehow what sort of I have no idea. I'm using my phone right now to come back I That's all right, we're just wrapping up the show Real quickly to bring you up to speed We were talking about the law that says it you can't void a warranty because someone affected a repair that didn't damage the object And Roger was like well do we need lemon laws for electronics because because along the same way You know it to me. It's too different. It's too different. They are two different things But honestly, I think they do overlap in such a way I mean for example if you take your car in For a regularly scheduled oil chains like you change the oil according to that's covered Even if the car is effective just because you changed the oil at a non Say you bought a Toyota at a non Toyota dealership right and that's what this this law We were talking about yesterday actually should apply to electronics and the electronics manufacturers are not respecting that law That's that's a tough. I mean electronic manufacturers these days What exactly are you getting when you buy something like are you getting a license to use it? Are you actually getting to use the hardware? So this one sounds murky to me right now. Yeah Well, that is it for this episode of Daily Tech News show. Thank you. I as act are for persevering I'm glad we got a really good discussion in before the internet gods started to mess with this By all means let folks know where they can find more what's going on with you go to see net calm We got stuff there.

But then Roger kept showing screenshots as I talked and I was like, okay Weird weird. Yeah, my my router says that like it says your internet service provider doesn't have a DHCP video properly. Oh wow. I'm like what so right now I'm restarting my router to see if it's gone stupid or if the modem is gone stupid or what because I I Right, I'm on Verizon's network right now because I don't know what happened to Time Warner or Spectrum so Why did it crap out? Yeah, no, that's crazy. And when you when you back-channeled me and said, hey, your audio is crunchy And your audio was great right up until the point you disappeared your audio was fine Yeah, like you were at this weird kind of like this and then it would speed up Put it all together So your download is getting affected but your upload stayed good until your connection went away. Well from my perspective both of your audio were pretty Pretty good. I'm your video is a little shaky, but I mean in terms of audio quality. It was fine What's going on just very like I have to do a piece-by-piece Troubleshoot because this is down. This is gonna be a very unpleasant reality. Yeah No, that's why I have two internet providers now For that very reason because when frontier took over Verizon. I had a very crappy weekend long almost half a week there The Verizon Service is the building like to over. Yes. You told me that so and it's so depressing It's like can you just can I just put these in our table here like just to tell nobody that's what I said You should just run it like like a clothesline, you know to talk to somebody in that fancy building Yeah, right.

So I've just been choosing import from the menu. Which is fine It's not as nice, but apparently you can drag it down to the application icon and it'll work It just won't work if you drag it to the To the program timeline itself little tips I ran down a tip with quicken over the weekend That ended up actually helping people which was crazy I posted my I posted my solution on get satisfaction dot com and a bunch of people responded. In fact, one person even knew who I was Oh, that's kind of creepy I don't like that because I was at the soup. I remember when I was on Screen savers or as a call for help I was going a shop at a safe way and someone came up to me. It's okay. It's okay. What's up? Oh, you're a shame from the screen savers. Yeah, yeah Fine groceries. What apples look good I don't know. I still I'm still kind of weirded out by that Some people take it and that's not like I had a guy come up to me at the grocery store Like a year ago and recognize me from cord killers And he just said like, oh, I just wanted to say hi. I like the show. That was it like he didn't Like I've never implied I'm always like very like Gracious it's like, oh, you know, thanks for supporting the show. It's really important to have fans That really appreciate what we do. But it's it it's not that I'm uncomfortable. It's just a weird It's still a weird feeling for me For someone to know for someone to know who I am and me not having any inkling of who they are Do you a cop? Wait a minute. Were you there that night that that went down? You're trying to serve me papers And someone did that to me once and I did not know who it was and there was someone from my great from grade school Oh, really? Like I guess I physically didn't Because that person changed it like their hair was different. Oh, yeah You probably haven't seen them in forever too. Yeah Well, yeah, but people like that's the thing like I didn't recognize it But people like I either stick out or I really just physically you haven't changed a bit Roger Chang You're just a bigger version of the first and you kid you were back in 84 or 85 Bigger fatter version. That's my big difference. It was much better looking when I was young too Sad, you know, everyone says that I think I'm I've basically maintained That's why people recognize you there you go. I'm just as handsome and ugly as I was You know, it's funny because Jen says the same thing is I look at baby pictures of you Roger You literally don't change you just Big version to the same person. Yeah, big baby. I mean that literally like you look like a big baby Like she looks at me like when I was a kid. It's like you look the same like Bioca was like I said hi to Roger at night attack and made him uncomfortable Yeah, it's because we were over at that part of town. That's kind of I mean that part of town's kind of weird Although I have to say I didn't expect to see the condo across the street When I stepped on the dog or human poo or whatever is on the sidewalk That's why I think that place is just I was gonna I was gonna invent basically shoe Shoe covers because they have them from furniture movers or movers where they're basically booties that go over your shoe I would have like basically Like on like a lint roller you could like, you know rip off the heel You know, there would be like six more So if you stepped in something you could just rip it off You're not walking around with like soiled heels or something. Just watch where you step You know, that's right. Tom. I guess it's easy for someone like you just to look where they're walking To look where they're going What do you mean by that? What are you trying to say? It's a lot of poo in san francisco I know there's it's not like la is any different in certain areas down. Yeah, but you have to drive You have to drive I'm hoping that's some sort of barrier Listen, I remember the night that got some drunk guy Like rang my doorbell I like was like ding ding ding ding ding is like ah crap. So I went downstairs And all I saw was a giant puddle of urine in my front door And I think someone was so drunk that they just leaned against my doorbell. Oh, I'm right. Yeah That's like And then I had to come down with a hot bucket of water and bleach. That's just It's annoying. Yeah I didn't move from san francisco.
