 Hello video people Welcome, we're gonna we're gonna do a show here Are you ready on I believe so sir? Oh wait? What do I have today? I don't have anything to introduce you as oh and JJ Stone from what IQMZ or yeah? Or Odakta at Odakta. Yeah, is that it right? Yeah, okay? I Want to get your letters backwards Oh, I got I got some guy tried to super fish me hard the other day first he offered me he's like I own I Aqmz.com would you like to buy it? Here's a link to the offer that I'm trying. Yeah. Oh, that's funny Yeah, I'm surely gonna click this link Yeah Yeah, what would be the URL then is it just I got it in there IQMZ.com okay? All right, here we go Daily Tech news show is powered by its audience not outside organizations to find out more head to Daily Tech news show comm slash support This is the Daily Tech news for Friday, August 5th 2016. I'm Tom Merritt Lamperalta at Gen Con Darren kitchen at Def Con So we got a man who can fill in for two people at once oh and JJ Stone aka Odakta from IQMZ.com Is with us good to have you back on double the pleasure double the fun Exactly now Len usually illustrates the show are you are you going to attempt to draw anything for us today? Or I would have drawn something. I didn't know I was drawn. I would have my pen and pencil Oh, man. All right, that's my fault. That's my fault. Yeah, that's that you're too. Yeah I'm seeing I don't have a pen here either But all right. Well, you know what maybe that's for the best for certainly on my end Imagination Exactly, Len will be back next week. Go check out a stuff Len Peralta store.com Darren will be back as well But for today, we've got Odakta and we've got a good topic based on a change from one Password and the idea of subscription software something that's frustrating a lot of people not just us Let's start with the top stories though At the black hat conference, which is also happening Even Kirstik Apple's head of security engineering and architecture announced the company will start a bug bounty program for security researchers who disclose vulnerabilities in Five categories to start with all five categories are related to iOS or iOS devices Cash bounties will be up to two hundred thousand dollars per bug depending on the severity and the program is so Apple It's currently invite only with Apple specifically opening it to around a dozen security researchers that have already made significant Disclosures to them in the past Apple plans to slowly expand the program to more researchers and more devices Apple also offered to match the funds if researchers decide to donate their money to charity I don't know what you feel about bug bounties. Oh, and but I like them. I think it's a good idea This is a really interesting way to go about one though There they're always useful and they bring about solutions. It's just weird to me It's like a closed off wall. Why even tell me just go directly to these guys hire them And then go on about your day like announcing it in this way and then stealing off the wall to it just seems weird You know what I mean? Well, it was weird though The only the if I had to come up with a justification that one is answering critics who say why don't you have a bug bounty program now They could point to one the other thing they did say was if you discover a vulnerability and you responsibly disclose it to us Then we may let you into the program So they are sort of encouraging people to approach the wall with their gifts. Yeah, you know That's exactly what it's like a present for the king. Yeah, exactly. Um, I was thinking of my head like Maybe they should have just made the bug bounty program available in Apple stores and security researchers could have you know Lined up on the day they're available to get a limited number that it would be there in the stores I guess doing it this way keeps it from going Viral when someone announces a bug because you know, somebody finds a bug and if they're popular enough or important If they write some article about it and there becomes this big huge deal If they close the wall often things are found then it's done internally and they can sell what we fixed this in that Yeah, it's announced that the problem was a foot That's usually as a stipulation of all the bug bounty programs Anyway, is that you can't tell people about it before we're ready or you don't get the bounty, right? So I don't know why they need to do that, but it does feel very Apple to be like no We want even more control exactly double wall double wall protection. Yeah. Yeah Spotify's rolling out a new playlist called release radar composed of tracks from newly released albums This is different than discover weekly first of all discover weekly comes out on Mondays release radar will come out on Fridays It will only feature tracks released in the past two to three weeks and since those tracks are brand new It can't just look at your playlists and find enough information to come up with the songs So it's going to analyze not only the audio itself using some deep learning algorithms But also your entire listening history to try to match songs with you It reminds me very much of the music genome project that was used by Pandora back when it launched years ago It all sounds good if it works. That's all you care about, right? That's all I care about it. Then they work like onions that I like Yeah, I've tried a lot of those like the genius a lot of the predictive song They just annoy you because yeah, you might get like two or three songs are cool But you run through a lot of things that just don't work out Well, at least before when I use for Apple I have Pandora I accept the fact that it's a random system and it's different with Spotify I'm paying to get what I want So just throwing things at the wall at me doesn't really play for making something exciting Do you use Spotify then your subscriber? I was a subscriber now. I'm Apple music So that that's another reason why this doesn't affect you because it's not not a product you're using It's a general service that Apple uses to like something that tries to predict what I like and Usually they don't work out that well. I mean if this works really well then yay, you know There's so much music coming out now It's just too much so any kind of discovery mechanism that you can get outside of a radio wave or satellite radio is amazing Yeah, there's something about this that appeals to me more than Discover Weekly I curate a playlist that I listen to when I'm in the car very carefully. I remove things from it I add things from it. I almost feel like it's my personal radio station playlist, right? So I don't want Discover Weekly because I feel like I'm doing a better job I know myself better, but this is exposing me to music that I wouldn't have known about and to me That that is a much more valuable thing of like you wouldn't have been able to find out about this music because it's so new and yet We can analyze it and say that we have a pretty good confidence that you'll like it And I find that intriguing like you said if it works So where else besides the vehicle are you listening to music throughout the day? Sometimes in the in the house to pretty much. Those are the only two locations though When you're in the car, it's hard to like give up your playlist or your Enjoyment when you're in the vehicle I find like when I again even with the radio zone I want to just click off something I don't like or don't know when I when I'm just sitting around I'm more acceptable to like from at the gym or from walking. Yeah Yeah, something like that, but like when you're in the car that that's especially after in that LA traffic You need some things that really suit you make you out on Yes, you can't put on some random song you want to choke somebody Yeah, all you fascist by Billy Bragg does come up on that playlist from time to time But if it works it works good idea, I don't know Android and iOS Facebook users in Brazil in Canada will see an open camera window in Place of the what's on your mind or what are you doing text that usually prompts you when you open the Facebook app? This is a test they're running users can swipe to apply face paint put some country flag filters in Like go Canada first integration of selfie filters from MS QRD Aka masquerade since Facebook acquired that company. So it's very snapchat like test starts today and ends August 21st Are you snapchatting? Are you into that stuff? I have you snapchat for business purposes meaning I've put other people on snapchat for campaigns. I personally do not snapchat I've only snapped for 10 days the first 10 days it came out I used it since then I only use it to spy on other people Snaps, but this is soon to be what implemented into Insta snap That's what I'm waiting for. Well, yeah in the Instagram stories is a Facebook property But this is not part of that. This is just in the Facebook app. I guess for now Yeah, well, and that's interesting will Facebook bring the masquerade Filters and and and lens type stuff over to Instagram. Can they yes, or will they yeah? You think they will they 100%? Well the the biggest complaint or thing about Insta snap right now Everyone says where's my filters? There's a lot of models out there right now They're still having to go back to snapchat because they don't look as good as they look up their little halo filter on So this is most definitely has to come to Instagram for that. They're already trying to compete with snapchat, right? That's a core part of snapchat. You need that and you already own the company I can't see it not happening. Well, and the other thing Facebook's trying to compete is a 15% drop in content creation people are still sharing lots of stuff, but they're not posting original stuff as much At least as of February so they're hoping they're gonna test to say like hey if we give you Something that is more visual right when you open the app. Well that encouraged people to share more It'd be interesting to see if that works, too. They got it or something HTC announced the launch of Vive port. It's a store for non-gaming for the most part Although they said they'll take games, but the emphasis is on non-gaming VR apps The store will be accessed from Vive headsets web browsers the PC app and a mobile app as well Developers keep 70% of the proceeds if they put stuff in the store that can offer in that purchases and subscriptions So as a store, it's pretty standard at the same time as that valve announced They're launching a program to open up the HTC vibes steam VR object tracking system to developers The license is royalty-free Although you do have to send someone to a $3,000 training course in Seattle Where you will get a hardware reference kit So I guess that makes it worth it the sensors will also be sold separately by triad semiconductor and valve suggests that the possibility that third Parties would be able to build their own base stations in the future and even headsets using these sensors So it's can be used and probably mostly will be used to create accessories for the HTC Vive But valve is out there saying like you can make whatever you want with this stuff. It doesn't have to be for the That's pretty interesting. I'll still wrapped up in the it's free 3000 but you get the thing that you have to have to be there. So it's still the price of the thing Even said like we want to get rid of that course requirement allow you to do it remotely So I'm not sure what all that's about. Maybe there's some light Maybe they'll do a VR and you can put your headset on and pretend like you're right the classes But any extra content is amazing. I mean, I'm not you know me out in my VR hatred of the world I'm still waiting. I'm letting it all get out there and get it fleshed out And then once there's some like core base things and I can get into it I will before right now. I'm still I'm still holding pattern. So you and you've tried it but not liked it It's basically what you're saying. Yes. Yes, and I again everybody that is with it yells at me There's so much stuff now. There's so much stuff now. Look, it's still brand new I want to have it to have a six month break in period I want to make sure your eyes don't burn out and your brain doesn't turn to mush And there's more content and then I will dive right in Now this next one was the top of our subreddit daily tech news show that reddit.com sheriff Jerry Larpenter of the terribone parish in Louisiana Has been accused of corruption and fraud over and over by an anonymous blogger at Exposed at dot in that's exposed in the capital DAT. I am so deputies submitted affidavits of criminal defamation and obtained search warrants to seize evidence Tuesday in the house of police officer Wayne Anderson of the Halma police department. How does the Parish seat of terribone parish. He is a former parish deputy as well So that is a little intriguing Anderson was placed on paid leave after the raid without official notification Why and denies that he is the author of exposed at the warrant claimed criminal defamation of an insurance agent named Tony Alfred blog posts from exposed at relating to Alfred point to a citation for dumping radioactive waste in Montana By a company that he co-owns with the parish president and another post used public records to note that sheriff Larpenter awarded a contract to Alfred while at the same time sheriff's wife Manages Alfred's office. So there's a little bit of a connection there Civil rights people are saying look, he's just exposing public records. That's not against the law They shouldn't be raided of course Anderson himself says I don't do the blog anyway. I don't know why they're going after me it's certainly Interesting in lots of ways just as typical human drama, but also about kind of the idea of whistleblowers and blogger rights Everything should go through Julian Assange Everything should be going through WikiLeaks I give you have information and we want to protect yourself because I can't believe that he's not involved somewhat But I also believe that he shouldn't be Arrested for giving out again public record information Especially when something's harming the community. Oh, they've killed 40,000 percent of the wildlife We've got arrested for defamation though. He told people that were evil company and we're losing money like it all sounds so Movie cartoonish, but it's real life and doing the right thing of Explaining to people what's going on in their community happens to turn out to be a bad thing and you can get raided It's so like that freaks me out. Yeah, Shane says it's pronounced Huma, Louisiana So apologies to the residents there for mispronouncing their they're sitting all six Little bigger than that, but you're right. It's not a droppalus this This whole thing though is is sort of you know, I Don't know that people are really trusting WikiLeaks much these days either and so there isn't people don't trust WikiLeaks when WikiLeaks doesn't say what they want to hear We trust WikiLeaks when they talk about Panama and bankers and everybody else in the world When they talk about your political person that you like then you don't trust them all of a sudden You've been trust them for the last however, so long, but now the sudden you can't trust what they say So I don't really know what I feel about that But that's a that's a kids game where they now the son I've heard a lot of people say oh, you can't believe WikiLeaks. I've never heard anybody say that until now Like this is pretty people are saying that pretty cut and dried to me based on what I've seen now granted I didn't make an exhaustive search of the blog in question here But the few posts that I was able to look at including the ones I mentioned did seem to be drawn from public records You should not be able in the United States anyway to be accused of defamation If what you're saying is true you you have to show Malicious intent and you have to be speaking falsely. So I don't think there's a case here And how did that's all sudden how did you get the warrant for that? Yeah, how did you convince a judge? Like what did you what did you tell the judge that he did wrong to get that warrant? It's what I'm thinking because that's what's got him holding in jail right now That's what he's got to fight whatever that false doctrine is because doing those two steps That's the way it went down. I have no understanding of how that could happen I guess you know you could you could make cases that pointing to a company in Montana And trying to say that your insurance business in Louisiana is bad or two separate things I you know, but it's a stretch no matter how you look at it. Yeah The US organization that oversees the gathering of international athletes going on in South America sent a letter to companies who sponsored those athletes That they are not allowed to mention the name of the event itself if they are not sponsoring that event That is a trademark violation The letter stipulates that any company who is not media cannot even share or repost anything from the event social media accounts Or reference the events results USA Today digital editor Natalie de Blasio posted on Twitter that in fact the events International organization has told its media partners that they are not allowed to turn pictures or videos of the event into animated GIFs Gif V's GF Y's or even web M formats as well as any short video formats, and they specifically refer to Vine So we're just going to be safe on I'm not even going to mention the events name just in case bling bling bling bling games Where's the bunch of interference on your connection there? I believe the event question may be trying to silence Unplug and plug back in but you're all you're all crunchy all of a sudden Oh, yeah, yeah for real I do think it is I do think they may be after you for some reason I don't know in the meantime if you're someone who would like to watch that in event in question in the United States NBC will stream all the events on its website and through the NBC Sports app PlayStation view customers can authenticate for the NBC Sports app if you're a cord cutter So you could sign up for PlayStation views 30-day free trial that would get you there Sling TVs blues subscribers can get some NBC channels through the sling app Although you can't authenticate with sports app with sling unauthenticated users can stream 30 minutes on their first visit five minutes each Subsequent day if you're in other countries, you're much better off BBC is going to have it on the iPlayer in the UK in Australia Seven is going to stream its live broadcasts online for free through its websites and apps Although you will have to pay $20 if you want to get the coverage that isn't available on the broadcast Did they let your voice go free Owen am I back? Yeah. Yeah, you're totally back now Oh, I feel like there's a helicopter somebody's Got snifed out or so, right? So this is it bling bling bling bling ring games. Okay, you're fine now from the world It'd be too obvious if they did it again, I guess. Yeah, that's really I can't go outside right now There's probably a healer out there But seriously like the Super Bowl is another one that does this where they they Stretch the definition of trademark law as far as they think they could possibly scare people into complying with it to the point that You're not allowed to make an animated gift that you're not allowed to reference the results the actual factual things that happened That's ridiculous and the biggest thing about sports in general right now is they were so far behind and all that stuff like Okay, the 76ers are really good. They have a really good marketing team. They put out their own gifts and loops of plays During the game while the game is going on there put out so and you see a lot of those people re-sharing them Now when you see like the Golden State Warriors You see a lot of people on their TV Take a recorder because they don't have Someone just spitting out clips for them like if you want to get ahead of it You want people to stop copyrighting your content put it out for them so they can find it when you see somebody get a monster Dunk or a super play Tape it and put it out there on the internet now They're doing deals with their trying to get that but everybody's just behind the ball on that subject Tell you what I know I know that the as a consultant this is gonna drive you crazy The the one thing you don't do is tell anyone not to retweet you Yeah, and and again, that's what they do. They saw what the copyright. I was like they've got 40,000 likes and 20,000 That's all for you. It's got the NBA logo on it now If we different they plastered their name all over it or something like that But you want this and if you want it then okay learn from that. Okay, they did that You don't ask me to take it down you copy and emulate what they're doing. So next time you can directly capitalize on it They've given you a road map to what to do and the Olympics. I don't I don't feel like anybody's gonna be really talking about the Olympics because They shut down the ring of Ring things without see what I'm saying like you okay. That's how fresh in it is no exactly No, I think you totally made the point right there all the sharing ability of something that is so great And people are still gonna do it. So what do they think they're getting away with they should spend more time clean up the water Instead of trying to clean up the internet at the new event though Hey, thanks to everybody in our subreddit a you tiger fan of a toilet condolce, say California cars Carl social savant Motang and more the lazy ones in there today Thank you folks for always bringing good stuff to the subreddit and sharing it with everyone So we could all vote on it get in there and vote folks daily tech news show dot reddit calm and that is a look at the headlines All right, so new one password plan was announced earlier this week They're a password manager if you're not familiar very similar to last pass And they've been vetted as fairly secure as these things go But they've got a new plan they announced earlier this week that will cost you three dollars a month But you can use all their apps You can choose to store your Encrypted passwords on their secure servers Although you can still choose to do it yourself on iCloud or Dropbox if you want and they raise the price of the individual software from 50 Bucks to 65 bucks so you don't have to pay the three dollars a month But you're going to pay 65 bucks if you want to get a brand new installation of this the upgrade is still Sold at a discount. Oh and this this finally was the straw that broke the camel's back for you Why is that let me make some tea So I can sip it So I can explain the anger in my heart about this whole situation. That's instant I'm instantly upset about it because you brought it up. Don't don't judge me all my keys of Everything is rentable right now all these products that people are licensing that used to be able to buy Adobe now I gotta pay 30 bucks a month for the rest of my life and granted it was really expensive But you know I just had it and I owned it and I could wait a generation or two fried to update I didn't need the newest one because I knew the core product Everything is for our droppler drop box cycle and I know they think that it's a micro economy But literally right now I tied it up because I knew we're gonna be talking about this today I'm spending three hundred and twenty two dollars a month on micro payments for software That's three thousand dollars one thirty six hundred thousand here. Yeah, like come on like I can't I just can't They just need to make things and sell it and be done with it like you know I mean you know they wouldn't be moving to a subscription model if they weren't making more money off that right? I mean it makes sense they make more money off of it and the subscription model is the infinite way to make money That's why your cable company charges you monthly and they don't just say hey give me three grand I'll call you in five years or never again I understand that but I mean they think that they can do it too Especially with this new app economy right but even with the apps a lot of them. I just buy them once and I'm done I don't want apps to start coming at me like how Apple music and Spotify are which are justifiable because they give me New stuff every month Spotify gives me new content every month one past. I have one past one time and that's it like Okay, even if you want I just well There's an upgrade and then you have to decide whether to pay for the upgrade and that's the thing I can go at three dollars a month with the new price I know you only paid 50, but if somebody were comparing from the start today $65 versus $3 a month it would take them 22 months To make the $65 version pay off and at that point at 22 months You're probably gonna be wanting to upgrade to a new version anyway Make let that be my choice as opposed to nickel and diamond me again Yeah, it is there though. They're selling the $65 version of it They are but not everybody is don't touch this The nickel and the subscription nickel dime world again when you're creating new content. Hey patreon people want to donate patreon I understand that I'm getting new content all the time you make this one thing And then you want to do an update whenever who's he what's it when you want? I don't know and that is I'm still paying every month for it I don't it's still the same thing. Just stop it I think a lot of people agree with you and wonder why this is happening and the answer isn't just greed The answer isn't just money Gartner estimates by 2020 80% of vendors will change to subscription IDC says software sold as a subscription may reach 31% of total software spending by 2018 and the reason is They are starting to package it in with cloud Services so hosting and storage and this makes more sense on the enterprises side that it does maybe on the consumer side But you saw you see this with one password. They're saying hey for three dollars a month. You not only get the software We're also gonna provide a secure server for you to store it on that'll always be there And that'll sync it across devices for you. This is the service. We're providing so they're they're blending that in They are trying to provide you more than you would if you just bought the software on your own And at the same time it actually lowers their costs Because instead of having to throw a bunch of features that will compel you to want to upgrade to the new version They can just add features as they develop them going forward and push them out to all the subscribers Which is actually a subscriber benefit as well. Don't you think did to have that on this topic? Does it seem like I want to hear a logical rational? Of anything does it feel like I care about any of those things you just Of course they're viable, but I don't like it Okay, and when the when that online server gets hacked and 50 million emails gets bumped out Do I get my $62 back for the last year that I've been paying for your cloud security and storage and growth? No, I get it. I'm sorry email if lucky So frankly if if their servers get hacked your your computer could get hacked to if you're storing it locally So that that depends on the encryption, right? On the other hand though, I want to ask you is is there any way a subscription would ever make sense to you for software? Is there any price that you'd be like that's low enough that I like the idea that I'll always have the most recent version without Having to pay an arm and a leg. I just told you I'm panther a bucks a month I got a lot of things that apparently are worth the money that they charge me because I need them and I use them I couldn't get by without using adobe again. I'm complaining about it But I do understand the greatness of it I can upload a photo and edit it on my tablet or my my phone or my wherever and it's all there in a cloud I get it. I'm just tired of it. I'm tired of it being everywhere. I don't want to grow just a side note my uncle hasn't worked in 30 years he created a program that's leased out to the government and they write him a check every year He has a little house in Miami and a boat and I was oh, what do you do? I made this software and only think to myself is who's still using software from 30 years ago And how are they still cutting this man these checks? Yeah, you can't make something new So at least then I understand how it works. I just need to lease something myself I need to make some kind of program charge people 82 cents a month and yeah, because this isn't Infesting the real world too. I mean there's subscription clothing from places like stitchfix and la tote There's loot crate misto box does subscription coffee blue bottle does subscription coffee But no no no a certain point that's definitely stuff is going to I Yes, it is because you're always getting something but at a certain point people are going to feel this subscription fatigue That you're feeling like this is not unique to you people are going to get tired of having to pay all the time for stuff Yeah, again like the loot crate thing or like a the healthy surprise where somebody gets fruits vegetable snacks every month Or you know the bluebells send your food Yeah, people are gonna get burnt out It's a lot to do but at least those services are like I'm getting food. I need food I need sustenance. Do I really need one pass? Can I live without droppler? Do I really need dropbox like you start thinking about that and then like loot crate Of course, I need all my toys and gadgety things and then little monsters So, you know, but people are gonna get burnt out. It's too much. I don't know how they think that everybody has all this money Well, the to me the key is is a company like Dropbox should be looking at this and saying alright What you're gonna get tired of okay your options, right is I can keep paying for all these little pieces of software Or I can do it myself like I could I could download and install key pass and run that myself on My local network with my local drives and secure it myself, but I don't want to do that I'm maybe I'm lazy maybe that's just too much for me, and I don't have time for that So I want somewhere in the middle and that's where a storage company should be able to partner with open-source software and say Hey, you can download key pass We'll store it and host it for you and it's just all part of your dropbox subscription The key is becoming the player that gives you the one bill that you look at and go Oh, okay. It's not a bunch of little charges amounting up to this big charge It's one charge that is manageable and I accept and allows me to do all of these different things And I'm getting more bang for my buck and every one of these services should offer The one-year buyout like SoundCloud and Dropbox does a lot of them don't they just say oh, this is what it is And that's it and I'm like that either yeah, and honestly I think that's what Microsoft is up to with office 365 and and all of the versions of software going on every phone and every tablet and free upgrades to Windows 10 is We want you to just use our software and we're gonna charge you for the services on the other end We'll charge you for for office. We'll charge you for drive for one drive You know We'll try to get you to use that storage and hosting side of things or you can just go to Google and get all that stuff for free Yeah, we'll see we'll see how long that stays for even even how long this is free It's been free long enough to where if they charge me money I can't complain about it, but I mean I can use office for free online I only have to pay if I want to increase my storage or be able to access it across, you know Do some syncing across devices. Yeah So and I think Google does there they don't charge as quickly But there are limits that you can hit with Google where they're like, ah, you've used up your free storage now We want you to charge so yeah, and my Microsoft is just late to the game on that because a lot of people don't Every time I try to explain somebody that they are use Google. I use Gmail. Yeah Like they don't even think about Microsoft right now because it's new I had tell you what I use Microsoft office because there are a couple of people who have to have an Excel or a word document That I work with and I love being able to pay for the subscription version and not have to worry about going and buying a big Box of software for $300 every two years. So yeah, there is that advantage We got a pick from Kevin in OMG. I think my shoes just melted to the asphalt Augusta, Georgia he says any list lets you create multiple lists from grocery lists to birthday presents and Things my kids say any list I want I share the grocery list with my wife And when we see something that we need we put it on the list and the first person to go to the store always has the latest version of The list you can also put in recipes and add the ingredients to the shopping list with just a click So it's built around recipe management and grocery shopping, but you can use it for all kinds of list seems pretty versatile I haven't tried it myself But if you think it's worth a try Kevin recommends it you can go to iTunes and look at it And we have a link to that in the show notes as well Send your pics to us folks feedback in daily tech news show comm you can find more pics of daily tech news show comm slash pics Do you know Russ pits Owen? Used to work for the escapist and now he is an independent he worked for Polygon as well. He's an independent house familiar, and I don't know it. So yes I used to work with him at half price books in Austin in the 90s You know But Brian and Pittsburgh wrote in and pointed out that Russ has relaunched his stage of development documentary Kickstarter The last time it didn't quite make it to funding so he's refocused it They're going to try to tell the story of the indie game community in Chicago That's the first thing he's going to kickstart and then if they get to stretch goals They'll be able to add other stories that they want to tell as well So I wanted he wanted Brian wanted to amplify the signal and I like this idea as well I'd like to see what Russ can come up with his original concept video that he made for the first Kickstarter was really good And he's got some interesting stories to tell so you can go check that out look for stage of development on Kickstarter We'll have the link of the show notes there Finally Craig thought this was interesting a mall in Lafayette, Louisiana I guess it was a kind of a high-end strip mall liked the extra attention of Pokemon go players at first But have changed their mind And said they are no longer welcome They've actually gone to Niantic and gone through the process to apply to get their pokey stops removed They said it was a nuisance to paying customers People were throwing trash everywhere sitting on top of their cars and smoking Drive and well-playing Pokemon go taking up parking spaces. They even reference a visit from a SWAT team I kind of figured that might not have anything to do with Pokemon go particularly but but could be random This is the first mall. I've heard of that actually said nope not worth it We're gonna remove the pokey stops. We don't like this pokey. We're at riffraff in here That must be the mall that nobody kind of goes to like you know, there's like three malls Yeah, all the super high-end uh-huh the mall that you're comfortable going to and the mall I haven't been to that mall in like eight years and very maybe that kind of off everybody's hanging that outside It's apparently the high-end mall though. Oh, well then that that might be why the SWAT team showed up Otherwise we'll clean up and to play a little Pokemon while they're there It's a hit-or-miss thing with that because you want the foot traffic But again so much foot traffic with non-shoppers it takes a parking spot It takes our spaces forget all the littering and things like that Yeah, people to run around clean up, but it can overwhelm people That's that's what I've heard from like one of my friends down the shore He has a little t-shirt shop and when it first happened on the weekend He had a wave of people just playing the game and all he was thinking about is there could be people stealing left and right And I can't pay attention how many people are in this area right now Like there's so many people and that means like 40 or 50 people. I guess we're they're playing a game Honestly though, come on. Just just apply for the pokey stops to be removed That's all you need to do. You don't have to make a big deal out of it Once they're gone people go away and and some store owners don't know anything about that I had the conversation he called me and asked me how do I make this stop because if you don't if you don't have a Technical person in your life, you're just thinking you have to deal with it You don't even know that you can have your pokey stop removed or changed or anything like that. So Knowledge is power Yeah, absolutely So to do know that you don't have to write up a long list of grievances as to why the pokey stop Although I guess maybe it's fair to be transparent That is it for this episode of daily tech news show My sincere pleasure to have you on the show o and JJ stone let folks know about IQ MZ What you got going on there? I was I was on your doc tales podcast recently. That was a blast. Whoo Yeah, I do that as a podcast where I just sit down and tell stories and talk to friends you on there Georgia Dow was on I actually just re-released a tape that I found of an interview I had with Jason Callaghanis from 2010 that I could never put on YouTube because they had a 15 minute limit and It's all kinds of fatherhoods I think I called him like a black man on the inside and a white man on outside the conversation got crazy But it's super fun. We do IQ MZ tech, which is like a minute or two tech show review thing It's trying to be daily if I get it going and just fun stuff sports a show that we're doing So we're about to crank back up, but just just go to IQ MZ calm and just click on stuff There's stuff there. What's the mnemonic for IQ MZ? How do people remember that? It used to be For inquiring minds media, which is the name of my company So it used to be inquiring minds calm But people can't spell and back in 2002 and websites weren't like everybody knew them Who like what's your website again? I say inquiring minds and no one could spell inquiring because people I guess weren't that bright So I turned it into IQ MZ, which people still ask you what's IQ MZ? But at least there's four letters and you could get to it So that's what happened IQ MZ is actually not even a good acronym for inquiring minds You could tell it I and the Q and the M and the Z and it's just our space that letters. I quit making Zaw I Should think of a good acronym for yeah, yeah, I should I work on that audience got testers. That's good homework Anyway IQ MZ calm now you won't forget it folks.

I was looking for something short. Yeah, I bought it and I keep it It's just crazy how people can't spell. I'm like, how can you not spell inquiring? Yeah, yeah That's my thing. Well, you just look it up if you can't spell it, but it was a long domain, you know, so Nobody ever is that asked me that question before I Just wanted a way to try to remember it. That's all yeah So so as you probably know we just stick around afterwards in stream While we pick the show title and I publish and stuff if you need to go go whenever you need to go if you want to hang around That's cool, too. Yeah, I'm not doing anything. I have to do The other show tonight after I get done with you guys. I'm stuck sitting here. Oh man. You've got a whole day. I do All right, what do we got at showbot.tv? We got redacted athletic competition So it's the oh for that cannot be named Right, okay, Mal gone Olympics ban gifts bring world peace Games must not be named. How crazy was that that my mic cut out as soon as I started It was weird. It was like that was really creepy. Like I thought you were messing with me I was a guy. He's messing with me like he's doing a bit and I saw your eyes. You're like no you're Mike And I'm like whoa, maybe we just go away like it was a passing thing ha ha ha and then it was like oh shit No, it didn't go away. I Like it's a fee country Maybe all right The bug Apple Spotify plays radar love no Olympics. No Olympics. No Olympics is good, too Oh, no Olympics. I get it. I see you Olympics that gift restriction even looks on many levels. Yeah It's a triple entendre Southern blog justice if you like it you got to put a trademark on it Let the games begin after this message. That's NBC Fee less fee lease candidate software subscription vampirism Yeah, they're sucking you dry bro Subscription fatigue. I like that. It's it's very have we we haven't used that before I guess not that I've been With you. Yeah, that's a good one. We talk about it on court killers all the time. I guess that's Yes subscription fatigue. I can see that being fatiguing, which is why I use Mostly freeware software for 80 to 90% alright So do we go with subscription fatigue which is good and describes the main topic or do we go with no Olympics? Because it's so meta. I don't think I Like you have an opinion I'm leaning towards no Olympics because in the vast sea of shows What's the difference in searchability in the title as opposed to the funness of three or what do you think? We're Roger. I I'm just SEO set. So exactly see Against the SEO mindset and the sea of shows, but you're right Subscription well the thing is no Olympics makes sense to people who've already seen the show I don't know if it will make sense because like if I see that and I didn't know you guys talked what you what was discussed on the show Like I just I could pull out my CNET hat and say that a word like fatigue is a negative word that turns people away from clicking That's a good answer or People that watch the show are gonna watch the show and if you just happen to step by the show You're not gonna go away from the show because it says no Olympics. You might just want to know what no Olympics means Maybe I'm just going against your butter. That's all. I'm just debating you What butter have no butter neither, but I'm going against it Throw me No, I know Olympics Like the ring Sounds like it's a fire to me And the Olympic games of name-choosing I Yeah, no time for fatigue losers. I got a gold medal the world Thank you, Vangelis Vangelis of podcasting oh, and I've always said All right, well Roger wins the least enthusiastic title approval ever Teen acceptance speech ever so you're gonna watch you're gonna watch the those games that are happening in the South America I'm gonna watch them. I'm just super apprehensive that something bad is gonna happen And I've never had that feeling before and I really like to be honest with you I don't mind like watching something happen and oh, you know, there's a car. So you walk by You know, you kind of look I feel like I'm watching that and I'm just like somebody's gonna get sick Somebody's gonna get Zika and it's gonna taint the whole thing because I usually watch like Whenever I turn it on I usually watch whatever is on. Yeah, everything's going on all day long all night I love watching the soccer because I don't like soccer any other time Basketball I watch even though they're blowing people out I watched the first half because I want to see at least how good the other teams are But I'm just so worried about like all the bad stuff. I don't know if it's because they put it out in my mind I don't even worry about terrorism like I don't even worry about terrorism in my own home But I'm so fixated on man these athletes train so hard and work so hard and there's just Problems everywhere. They couldn't even open the gate to the venue. They need a boat cutters No, no, I saw that I'm just like what kind of show you guys There were so many I think you're right. It's gonna. It's you know, it's not gonna be like 1996 type of thing It's gonna be it's gonna be some failure of infrastructure. See it seems like would be the most likely thing I'm not saying I hope that happens, but now that's the kind of thing that could happen I think everybody thought the same thing in Athens too and everything was fine there So I don't think anything bad will happen during an event I think it will all the negative stuff that people worry about will happen away from the games whether for example The Australian team got robbed or something like that. Yeah, and that happens And of course, I don't know if he was a Russian who was a he was attached to the Russian embassy or whatever He got he was held up and he grabbed the guy and he pulled them into the car and shot him with his own gun or something Wait what? Who Was that side to see Russian You say he but you didn't say a person you didn't The worst thing I heard was every way they were treating Solo hope solo. Well, so the Russians tonight was a diplomat that there was a Repertion that one of its diplomats was involved in the fatal shooting of a Robert Rio Rio right before Security I'm not getting all the details here It's a concert staff in case originally was reported that a Russian diplomat in a car at an intersection was held up by a Robber and a motorbike. Oh, okay But at gunpoint and that he grabbed the guy or the diplomat grabbed alleged diplomat grabbed the The robber pulled him off his bike and then shot him with his own gun, but the Russian Embassy denies it was a Russian So if I could restate the story to make sure I have it right someone was robbed and on a motorcycle and Pulled the gun away from the robber and shot the robber And at one point it was thought that the person being robbed was a Russian diplomat But the Russians say no it was not Yes, okay, man was robbed in as well in his car. He was in his car. The robber was on a motorcycle. Exactly. Got it Sorry, that's like I said, it's too much stuff going on. I hadn't see well The problem was I hadn't heard any of that so you are jumping to the conclusion that I heard about the robbery and I was What happened? Yeah Did you did you did you see what they did to hope solo during her game? Yeah, I didn't see that So she wore a yeah Yeah, she wore a bees keepers hat and she had this like Zika lotion and her Instagram She was wearing the suit and a hat and had the lotion was like this is mine. Don't ask me. I'm not sharing I'm not put my life in the line for nobody So then every time she touched the ball during the game and they love her in Brazil like when she was there playing against them They cheered for her. They love her. I guess they like women that beat up people Anyway, every time she touched the ball, they just chanted Zika Zika Like I'm like man talk about putting the hex on somebody in the crowd against you right there Man the whole stadium just Zika Zika No, it's it's funny. It's horrible, but that's that's just funny. I want to see the opening ceremonies Yeah, it's not tonight tonight's happening at I think three or 330 in Brazil Eastern time our Pacific time and then The broadcast will be slightly delayed on the east coast by an hour and begin at 7 Eastern And then we get it at 7 Pacific so we get it four hours delayed. I Don't like delays of things. I want to see it all live whenever it's going stop delaying me I don't mind them doing to right like give me the option to watch it live And then do a rebroadcast at 7 for those who don't get off work or whatever like that's fine But they're this year the NBC got it right. They're doing everything live online no matter what it is Okay, and then and the evening they're doing sort of kind of the highlight reel with delayed broadcasts and such Except for the opening ceremonies. That's the only thing they're not streaming live and same for the closing ceremonies But I'm I'm excited to see I mean not and again not to Say anything bad, but all the American athletes are on a yacht. I mean not a yacht a cruise ship No, that was the that's the basketball team. Isn't it? It's a It's not I don't think it's the entire I watched something of sports center this morning and they said it was everybody. Okay. I was just I was under I was under the impression it was a certain American I thought it was NBA too because I heard NBA was on a cruise ship But I think I heard that's what they said this morning. I was worse on they definitely said it whether it's true or not Is to be seen I guess I mean it's actually a pretty smart way of Issues especially with the housing and the food and the no beds and put up your own shower curtains And all the other stuff that one guy who's a he plays for the yeah, the Australian Yeah, he's playing go-state Warriors. He's been playing a big time on Twitter, but he but he's he's Australian He's playing on the Australian national team for the Olympics And there's a picture that he posted of him erecting the shower curtain for the shower. Yeah And his bed. It's like a kid size bed because he's seven two They have like to be fair, but they're probably kids eyes to him Yeah, that's what I was saying is like and I got a standard size better I was like, you know, they have like a queen in there. You still wouldn't fit it like You're complaining like you don't need a California King or something. Yeah, right? She just needs two twins and you just put them one There you go So Babs 7880 in the in the chat room Says that they live near the Lafayette Mall that was shut that shut down its pokey stops And confirms that it is in an upper-scale part of town An upper scale as opposed to upscale nice upper scale It's like the first state New York versus. Oh and says it's not really a mall more of a shopping center So it's a strip mall. Yeah, well that it's a rich man I was about to say how do you have a uppercase now? That's a lie We have a thing called the promenade and it's a strip mall, but it's got guests and Gucci and Apple store that's like Santana row and yeah, I was just about to rag on a strip mall, but then I was like Yeah, they do have nice ones. I guess All right Well, that is it for our stream ladies and gentlemen have a lovely weekend Enjoy the athletic contests if you wish and we will talk to you on Monday Monday ring things
