Is that the thing Tom has I'm sure right Tom. You see I have yes more than once I Have not yet, but I will but on current geek Every so often Scott and I are going to watch the greatest movies of all time and discuss them from a geeky perspective Yeah, as special episodes a new idea Have you seen Patton? Courageous film festival never seen Patton Patton would also be a good one for me You should you should do all the manly movies I missed and see how like if you watched it Would your life have changed direction? Like I'm gonna be a cowboy Well in some cases like I finally saw apocalypse now, but I would have been like two years old and that came out Man that movie was Weird the first time I watched it and this is the thing I Didn't watch the movie until much much later And so I watched it around the time that Jacob's ladder came out And so I thought just like the whole experience was one giant acid trip and it's like oh You Jacob's ladder was we are going to watch the top movies of all time as created it by averaging the rankings from Rotten Tomatoes IMDB and the AFI top 100 films Godfather is the first followed by Casa Blanca Citizen Kane Psycho Sunset Boulevard and of course the list goes on. I've only seen of all those you mentioned This is why this is so embarrassing and why I really want to do this. I've only seen Psycho in that list No kidding. Really? Yeah, I've never seen Citizen Kane I can almost recite Casa Blanca. It's my favorite movie of all time. That's your favorite movie and I've never even seen it So yeah, this will be great. This is that one will be fun. I mean all of these will be fun Yeah, I was like I was a kid who thought if it wasn't in the 80s It wasn't a movie for me and I'm different now. I would really like to see things. I missed, you know It's I'm sort of the same way except that it's not the entire decade. I don't like it's just genres For example of the 70s. I kind of like the horror Movies genres that came out in that period of time in the 60s. I liked the kind of Cold War ish scare so it could be be like a kind of a realistic movie be something like Manchurian candidate that's a major candidate or something like the Red Planet or you know something, you know of that Feeling so generally I like zeitgeist movies movies that kind of evoke The popular sentiment of that time. Oh, you're gonna love the next 10 years then We're gonna get guys movies I can guarantee it There's a lot of geist to zeit My name is zeit and this is my co-host guys. It's 130 shall we Yeah, now you're not talking about movies anymore, but you're the one that brought it up. There you go You have control sir. All right, here we go Three two one Quality content thrives through the support of those who benefit from its creation If you gain value from the Daily Tech news show consider joining others like me who provides support Learn how to help at Daily Tech news show comm slash support This is the Daily Tech news for Wednesday, August 23rd 2017. I'm Tom Merritt with Scott Johnson here to be your Color commentary to the play-by-play of technology news as it parades in front of you each day I wish I could just circle stuff on the screen Madden style though That'd be cool like here's where we saw Samsung move into the left while if you see DJ co He takes a short stutter step when he says note 7. Did you notice that Scott? Yeah, and then look there's an Uber down there in the bottom path of the lane We're in trouble. Yeah, I the idea of doing that kind of commentary is always entertaining, but I'll take what we have today Look we try we try to have a good time while talking about the tech news of the day help you understand the world around you a little better We're gonna talk about the note 8 Announcement but let's start with a few tech things you should know Oh, and by the way our producer Roger Chang is here as well. Hi Roger. Hi Tom. Hi Scott Samsung announced the galaxy note 8 available for pre-orders now in the UK tomorrow August 24th in the US It's pretty much now for most people as they listen to this arriving September 15th for around $900 depending on the carrier We're gonna have all the details on that later in the show a few days after the reportedly rumored Apple announcement in September. Hmm. I did let launches on September Well, I think it's supposed to be that day. We'll see French site Mac forever says it has confirmed with telecom companies that Apple will hold a press event September 12th There you go. I've just spilled the beans That's a fortuitous time. I thought it was a very clever transition that you did there. Well done US the US Department of Justice says it did not realize the extent of visitor data maintained by dream host When it obtained a warrant for 1.3 million IP addresses and all the communications related to a protest website Who knew who knew websites kept all that info not us says the DOJ. It has now narrowed its request I'm that the whole thing's very curious to me. Finally the San Francisco Airport is installing electromagnetic glass. No Nope electro chromic glass. Yes, I can times the charm from a company called view ink the glass That's incorporated for those who think I mean Glass adjusts its tent either in the reaction to sunlight sensors or a programmed working schedule That's so it'll keep it'll keep things cooler by tinting itself as the Sun gets brighter I suppose or if you're like, hey, we need to we need to you know tint this up To keep workers focused and stuff look at the window. I guess I don't know. Yeah, I'm actually I want to see that I want to see that in action. So may have to make a trip to San Francisco just for that Here are some more top stories Google Express is dropping its membership fee. You won't have to pay to get Google Express It's also promising delivery and one to three days if a customer reaches a partner stores minimum order Of course, it's different minimum orders at different stores, but Google Express Also integrating with Walmart So Google and Walmart kind of two ends of an equation that can compete with Amazon That means Google Express shoppers can use Walmart's easy reorder feature to buy things by voice on Google Assistant devices Including the Google home Walmart plans to add more features like this including grocery shopping To work with Google Assistant. Yeah, it feels like a good move for Google if they're trying to I don't know push Amazon to the back burner Just a tiny little bit. Well, I mean Google wants to get into to more of that business with Google Express and Walmart has the expertise Walmart also would like to have more media presence On devices and they can partner up with Google for that So it takes to to make Amazon in this case it does but in this case I think it's just a nice agnostic choice so that they can get the good tech and the back end they want and they're working with a big company like Google and It doesn't you know if they were to make a deal with Amazon That would be super weird because Amazon's kind of you know enemy number one to every brick-and-mortar and You know web-based selling site in the world. So I think this is probably a smart move Yeah, I mean Walmart wants to be Amazon they just put their voodoo service on Apple TV and You may think that's odd if you if you're used to using voodoo to buy things because you can't buy things through the Apple TV They don't want to give a cut to Apple But they also a lot of people don't realize have a free streaming video service Which puts them not only in competition with Netflix, but also with Amazon And one would expect that maybe you will see voodoo start to make some original programming since that's the hot thing Let's see if that voodoo is the voodoo. They do so well New York Times has sources who say Apple will begin testing autonomous vehicle technology with a shovel Excuse me a shuttle on its corporate campus. It's be called Palo Alto infinite loop or pale Not sure I like that name But anyway the Times piece also claims Bob Mansfield scrapped plans for a full car when he took over the project Titan Yeah, pale doesn't seem like an Apple name doesn't it? Well, you're gonna ride the pale over to the other the other campus today ride the pale It is short and easy to say though, and that's there's something so did you take the shuttle? No, I live beyond the pale I Okay, so this New York Times articles getting a lot of headlines as Apple has given up on making fully autonomous cars and instead is just doing this shuttle And that's not what the New York Times article says New York Times article is a very well-written article that talks about how at First there were a lot of competing priorities at first Apple thought well Maybe we'll actually build a car and that at some point they decided that was too complex And they brought in Bob Mansfield as you said who kind of tightened up the screws and said let's work on an autonomous car Platform that will run on other cars also They are testing this with the shuttles. They still have those Lexuses registered with the state of California And according to the New York Times article if they're still going to use those out on the streets So they haven't given up on anything it doesn't seem like now this reminds me when everybody said that Google was giving up on glass and They never did they weren't they maybe were restructuring or deciding what to do with it But you know like anything it's more exciting to think that there is a big goof and now they're yeah Reference someplace else and and they did at one time have the hubris as Apple does to think hey We could just build our own cars and they decided against that I I find that to be a more Expected line where you start big and then you adjust as you go on what you think you can achieve Versus some kind of failure, right? Also this article if you're if you're just glancing at it It may sound like they're making like a tract Thing like it's a like a right. No, it's good point and it's not it's like a Autonomous vehicle. It is a vehicle that will drive around campus I'll be it in this very controlled place But it's not like something's on rails like you'd see in you know Vegas the yeah Yeah, or anything like that and I think that's I mean that's pretty significant That is an autonomous car that they can test in their own backyard and build from there So I for one am all for the pale outside of the dumb name and the times piece implies that it will go between their campuses They will have more than one. There's the spaceship campus, but there's also a couple satellite campuses So it will be on public roads for part of its journeys. It looks like International Federation of Robotics reports that robot shipments jump 27% in China to 90,000 last year And it estimates that the number will jump in the country again to hit 160,000 by 2019 China makes up about a third of the global total of robot shipments making it the leading country in New robot installations so the robot arms and legs and rollers and treadmills race is on yeah Well, yes, I mean, I don't know how I should feel about a robot race in terms of Who have benefits the most I think the idea that we're increasing the sales and manufacturing of robotic equipment for Other kinds of manufacturing or for whatever they need me be used for and people at home are probably picturing, you know actual robots and they are but you know We're also talking about auto manufacturing and lots of other kinds of robotic equipment Fact that China is dominating in that sector is interesting But also I don't know that we are I don't know if we as a country if here in the USA We care that much not about robotics, but about leading in that area like maybe well if if robots end up being way more efficient Then we'll care and we'll want to catch up. I What's a nicer word for the lazy The lazy assumption I feel like the you know, the internet tends to make the lazy assumption like oh the lazy assumption in both of these would be their robots won't work or The here's another way to undercut paying people and I don't think either of those really hit the nail on the head I think what what's happening is China is really Allowing its companies to pursue Efficiency in this particular or area and it's something that may give them an advantage. It's worth paying attention to it's also Yeah, it's not new and electronics. Anyway, they've kind of been Leading I think I mean part of the assumption is that China just has this huge deep wellspring of Cheap workers and they don't in fact the cost of labor in China is going up and these are this is an attempt as Similar to in the US to basically bring labor costs down by automating a lot of the production And so it'll be interesting to say I mean like a lot of the jobs that have been re-onshored in the US are a lot more Automated than the then when they shipped out like 10 10 20 years ago And so they require fewer workers, but they're more automated. So it'll be interesting to see and I think part of the The the big argument is like, you know, who's gonna who's gonna reach Total automation of production this the quickest will it be Germany? Will it be, you know the US will be China because there's there's a lot of things that That are coming into play both demographics But also the need to keep our desire to keep production in their respective countries and don't forget the United States and Europe have been adding robotics to to their factory lines and automating workplaces for a long time China may be Leading in this because they have more to catch up at But there is that leapfrog effect where when you're behind and you jump to the front you get the more advanced Current versions of things and it could end up making you a leader. So it's worth paying like I said It's worth paying attention. Yeah, it's like internet going from copper to broadband We were slow to do anything or skipping over desktops to smartphones Same deal you have a little bit of a growth problem if you if you weren't in their position So we'll see what they do. Hey during gamescom today in a whole different part of the world in Cologne, Germany Blizzcon or sorry, excuse me blizzard it showed off a new six minute Pixar like animated short That brings all sorts of new life and I think potential characters to the Hearthstone universe I'm very curious about these a couple of goblins that are in it Anyway, they said a series of animated stories and comics would soon follow and for many and that includes me This sort of confirms what we think blizzard is doing right now Which is trying to reach outside the core Hearthstone audience and Aim for a more broader player base. In fact, you're already hearing from some of the hardcore is saying oh my gosh They're trying to kidify my hardcore game And I think in Blizzard's position They're like no or trying to expand its appeal to people maybe outside of nerdy CCG players Maybe we want to talk more to kids Maybe we want to talk more to moms who've got a little extra time while they're waiting for the kids or Whatever the market is they're not currently tapped into Hearthstone can be for a much broader base and I think that's what they were doing today It is interesting that the blizzard announcement at gamescom got a lot of attention for overwatch and Hearthstone in Large part because of its cinematics In fact, Sam Sykes the author on Twitter said just make movies already Won't you blizzard? Is that the first person to express that opinion? I know At this this Pixar like animated short was really fun And I play Hearthstone and it got me excited to go play another game But it did feel very Pixar like it felt very kid-oriented On the other hand the Hearthstone ain't no hardcore game I know there's hardcore esports around it, but it is still a see it's a card game Yeah, and and so there's nothing wrong with saying let's let's appeal to the kid and all of us In this fun game could not agree more They're gonna they're gonna be the naysayers who feel like something's being taken from them But the truth of the matter is it is kind of a game for everybody It's a game for people who want to I don't know practice being smart making cool tactical decisions I don't think that should be limited to a bunch of fantasy nerds So I'm totally into this and it was the highlight of the comm Unfortunately, the rest of their presentation was a little empty. They didn't have much to say that wasn't already known For Heroes of the Storm World of Warcraft Hearthstone and Overwatch everything that was new outside of these cinematics we already knew about from a few days ago or a week ago or more and So really all we got was a couple of movies that being said these guys are masters at making animated shorts And why they don't just go ahead and make a series I don't know but they did say about these characters and they're introducing in Hearthstone they plan a series of additional shorts and Comics to sort of flesh out stories. Let you know who those characters are All of that kind of stuff. So those two goblins. I'm interested in I'm gonna learn more about and it's an it's just an interesting turn for For the little game that could was that archmage and to need us the wizard guy Who's that supposed to be I'm not a hundred percent sure okay? Because a lot of the characters the word on the ground is that they're not tied to actual characters They're just okay. It was just a wizardy guy. Yeah, I'm like the two-headed ogre He'd look like chogol, but he's not but maybe all right. Anyway, it's it's it is a delightful Disney-esque Awesome piece of work with original music and incredible references, and it's just really well done So if you haven't seen it let the little kid inside you come out and go watch it Israel's fly treks has partnered with Iceland's AHA AHA does on-demand delivery and now AHA will do on-demand delivery by hexacopter in Reykjavik Fly treks worked with local regulators and developed the network that the delivery system runs on so the back-end network You know the internet network an AHA employee will have to load the delivery onto a DJI Matrice 600 and it will then fly across the Bay of the North Atlantic Ocean Where another delivery person will unload it and take it the rest of the way so it's not yet to your home However, this still saves the half hour or more drive that a normal delivery driver would have to make around The Bay the hexacopter can carry up to three kilograms That's good for a hamburger or beer or some sushi and it can go up to 10 kilometers only has to go a couple of kilometers across the Bay AHA plans to start with about 20 deliveries a day and it hopes to expand to multiple routes and eventually Include those home deliveries. Do you think this is Reykjavik going man? We sure could use more hand-delivered burgers or is this an experiment like this. No, I mean, I think this is AHA seeing a Publicity opportunity they're calling themselves the first drone delivery service. They're not or want to beat them to it Singapore has some Amazon's done some in the UK. There's some in Australia There's lots of delivery going on with drones, but I think they saw the opportunity to say hey we'll get a splash of publicity and We'll actually solve a problem, which is if we need to deliver across that Bay That's that's a long drive and we could shorten our delivery time practically by doing this I mean even if it's not drone delivery to the door The fact that it's going to go straight across the water is going to save them a bunch of time Yeah, this feels like we're on the verge of this becoming normal and everywhere It's it's how it's starting to feel because everyone every once in a while we get a story on the show and it's sometimes on a Wednesday, which means we think it's happening even more than I think and We are not that far from this is no longer a story. This is just normal Especially for remote areas and more and more popular populated areas and I am all for it I love this idea of getting my stuff this way And I don't know if it's because of the feet dragging of the FAA with commercial drones That has somewhat been addressed at this point But if you look at these things they're happening in Switzerland in Irwanda in Australia as I mentioned earlier, right? They're they're not happening in the United States. So this is a worldwide phenomenon in the truest sense We are worried about flying things. We don't control To get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes folks Be sure to subscribe to daily tech headlines comm you can get it as a podcast on the Amazon echo or Through the anchor app at anchor dot FM and that my friends is a look at the headlines Hey, Samsung announced the galaxy note 8. Did I mention that at the beginning of the show? I sure did Here's some more details. It has a 6.3 inch AMOLED screen 2960 by 1440 resolution So HD plus curved edges They call it an infinity screen, but the bezels are still there at the top in the bottom It's bezel is on the side specs are as you would expect snapdragon 835 or Exynos 88 95 internationally IP68 water resistance still there, but they bumped up the RAM to 6 gigabytes. There's a 3,300 milliamp hour battery That's a little smaller than the galaxy s But remember batteries are a very sensitive thing and they may want to play it a little conservative It's still a beefy battery has a dual rear wide angle and telephoto camera So it has dual cameras like the iPhone ships with Android 7 1 1 nougat and voice assistant Bixby So it's the first non galaxy s to have Bixby, but it's not gonna get Oreo quite yet It'll come app pair is a feature that'll let you create a shortcut So you can launch two apps at one side by side just by clicking on the edge comes in midnight black orchid gray Maple gold and deep-sea blue once again those colors black gray gold and blue Pre-orders begin August 24th like I said or they're on right now in the UK and the note 8 arrives on September 15th pricing varies by carrier It's between 930 and 960 dollars. It looks like here in the US. It's 869 pounds in the UK From what you've learned from there from what they've released and what we've seen in this ours technical article And of course everything that's all around the place Do you feel like I I feel like after reading through most of these articles? They're all kind of not talking about the battery thing I know we've talked it to death and that batteries, you know burned in the previous generation And it was a huge nephew and they're moving on past that But I guess I thought some people at least mentioned and nobody talking about it The Virgin and then gadget both briefly mentioned the battery issues being in the past that they they talked about and Samsung hit it head-on they started the announcement by looking at the history of the note and showing You know socially shared videos of people the first time they got a note and doing some unboxings and the note 3 and the note 4 and I was like wow, this is risky You're gonna go in the history of the note Are you sure you want to do this Samsung and they didn't flinch they went right to the note 7 and they very cleverly in my opinion showed Fans being disappointed like oh man, I'm gonna have to give my note 7 back Oh, this is so bad and then transitioned into we're still with you Samsung Mistakes happen, you know, we can't wait for for you to fix this and it was I thought it was pretty well done Not to shy away from the fact that they screwed up But at the same time making it sound like but people are willing to give us the benefit of the doubt And here we are with the new note 8 and I think that is one of the reasons you're not seeing people dig into this is Samsung took it on the chin themselves in this. Yeah, I know I think I I think I also agree with that's the right way to do it Do you I know this happens with every big flagship phone, but I always am just slightly bothered when it's not a Google branded phone that they're not starting with the latest with Oreo. They're going with Nougat and I think that's just an accident of timing I mean, maybe Google and Samsung could have cooperated a little better here, but Android Oreo just got announced on Monday And started the rollout process. It's they're gonna get it pretty quick, but they they just couldn't promise it Yeah, well, it's an immensely popular phone I'm really excited for fans of of this device. They're gonna finally get the generation they deserve last generation With some definite improvements anyway aside from all, you know, the fact that shouldn't burn Yeah, I'd be curious if if Organizations like the TSA or others are even a little fishy about a new Samsung phone I don't know how that stuff works. They can galaxy s the galaxy s is haven't had any problems I doubt it. Sure. I doubt there'll be any issue with it You don't hear those announcements anymore that was that was only last year hasn't even been a year yet Since that happened. Sure. Well, it looks like a good phone I would like it and we don't know how soon they get Nougat, but we just know what's coming. Yeah, they'll get it I'm curious if they'll get it by the 15th even if if that'll be available on that, you know The day you open up your box. I don't think that's impossible. They're not saying anything about that It does some cool other things takes notes with the s-pen as soon as you remove it pins notes to the screen It could translate more text by hovering. That's something it could do last time if there's a knock on the note eight It's that it's not a huge leap from what the note seven should have been Other than you know that higher resolution screen and those curved edges There's not a lot of compelling new things in here But it's a decent phone and it's bigger at six point three inches an app pair is a Samsung thing so Not not tied to the OS in terms of you know, it's not part of it necessarily I'm very curious about that and figure out my head use cases for Launching two apps. I assume it would be like well One's my tasks thing that I prefer over the built-in stuff and the other is my calendar that I prefer over Google's or whatever and Being able to see those two things simultaneously or have them Running at the same time more quickly than running them separately. I guess seems cool really curious about that in action though And I'm I'm sure you'll get feedback on that, but I'm really curious what people use app pair for Yeah, I there's a couple other things That are happening as well here the note eight buyers in the US will get 60 days free Samsung premium care service That's in partnership with a company called hello tech that will visit you if you have a problem That's kind of cool. We get 60 days free of that. I think it's like $11.95 a month. So it's kind of pricey after the first 60 days There's also a bunch of bundles You can get a free Samsung gear 360 camera in some cases or 128 gigabyte micro SD card in a wireless charging pad And that's the other thing don't forget the note eight has wireless charging as well optical image stabilization in both those dual cameras and 10x digital zoom and Samsung mobile president DJ co told CMBC at At the event that a Samsung smart speaker would be launching soon And that's not particular to the note But that would likely have Bixby the voice assistant in it as well, which would be another product to have that Yep, another home voice assistant with another name Just what you wanted try to get excited about I mean whatever I don't want to be I don't want to poo poo this out of the Gate because just because there's more competition. I think that's really good We're gonna we're gonna really suss out them, you know features and people are gonna really either stand above the rest or Whatever, it's not like, you know, Amazon can just rest on their laurels for a long time and I like that Just wondering what they're gonna bring to the table specifically. I hope it's a very open platform very You know internet of things friendly Lots of protocol for third-party apps to run that sort of stuff If that's the case, who knows Samsung could be the next big voice assistant in the market And by the way, big Jim posted in our chat room right now the Federal Trade Commission in the US has Proved the Amazon Whole Foods acquisition earlier today Whole Foods board approved that acquisition. That's not a surprise But the FTC was conducting an investigation to gauge whether the merger would decrease competitions seems like they found out it's fine It's supposed to close in the second half of this year But if things keep going like this you might see Amazon owning Whole Foods a little earlier than people expected or which by the way Adds a whole new layer of functionality to their own Amazon Echo So very much looking forward to that although I don't like paying those prices So what I hope comes from that purchase isn't just business as usual at Whole Foods I think they're ripping everybody off all the time. I would rather they buy somebody cool like What's this name if they just lower the prices now, okay that too You're talking about Trader Joe's or something. Yeah, Trader Joe's But is it possible they could see a lowering of prices as an anti? Oh, yeah, absolutely Amazon loves to have razor-thin margins so they could come in and just subsidize Whole Foods Yeah, I'll be very crazy thing to happen to the grocery market. I could be totally wrong But I'll bet they this is what they end up doing. I'll bet they have Maybe they already do this gonna be embarrassing because I'm saying it but they should have some sort of prime rewards deal Tied into people's prime accounts that they already have so when I go in there instead of like my Smith's card that I use or my Harman's one or whatever They just see that I'm an Amazon Prime member and I Discount on everything I buy. I think that was yeah as part of Amazon Prime. Yeah, that would that would be That would be cruel. They leave Whole Foods prices or as they are unless you're an Amazon Prime member One last thing going back to the note that I wanted to mention if you were a note 7 owner Samsung is giving a trade-in program for your current phone Remember they replaced the note 7s with other Samsung phones and other phones and you can now Take your current phone that you replaced your note 7 with and traded in for a note 8 up to $425 off, so you don't get a free note 8 but you get a discount What if you're a person who hung on to the 7 and didn't do the recall? Can you turn yours in? No, it's too late, dude. Yeah, you should you you should? Responsibly dispose of that is what you should do at least the battery. All right I just know there's somebody somebody out there. There's there's somebody. Yeah, the majority of them got turned in though They were like you're not taking my phone out of my cold dead hand. Well, some people are like I want a collector's item Ha ha ha just keep that battery out of the note 7 if that's what you're doing Hey, thanks everybody participates in our subreddit You can submit stories and vote on them at daily tech news show reddit.com and join in the fund at our Facebook group Facebook comm slash groups slash daily tech news show we got some emails We're gonna read before we get out of here Scott You want to read the first one or hi Tom says this email from Ali Smith aka 40 thieves Not sure if this is consumer friendly enough to make it a DTNS, but as a web developer This is pretty exciting. Well Zilla has been working on an experimental browser called servo Tom servo not really that is designed to be much faster for the last couple of years Let's see they've been working on the last couple of years I guess right right. They've even invented a new programming language. They call rust that it uses I like that as well the experiment seems to have paid off and so now they have slowly been moving those parts into firefox itself One of these parts is called stylo which brings parallelism and multi-core support to CSS the language that has used to style the web They are claiming two to four times speed up over the firefox currently Here's an excellent article about it gave us a link Tom will put that in the show notes It's aimed at web developers So it has a bit of technical jargon, but I think it's pretty good at explaining the concepts at the moment It's only shipping in firefox nightly and you have to enable an experimental flag that it should be rolling out over the next few months To everyone I'm excited to see that browsers hadn't stopped optimizing and improving browsers And I think there's going to be another noticeable jump in web performance much like when chrome was released. Thanks, Allie Yeah, that's exciting. I haven't touched I haven't touched firefox in a while And I wouldn't mind having a reason to give me an excuse. Yeah I use it from time to time and it is bit it has historically been a cpu hog But so is chrome so any any browser that fixes that is going to be very welcome in my book And anonymous person who knows about these things wrote in and said Netflix negotiated with many ISPs cable companies, etc as the network responsible for 30 plus percent of your traffic Saying that this makes them worthy of putting a box in the network usually at zero cost We've talked about this on the show before Netflix offered Hey, we'll we'll put a box full of our content in your house so that you can save on bandwidth transfer costs, etc Well our anonymous writer says if Disney at all make their own networks, you know, because they're buying BAM tech They are going to force their way into doing the same Possibly even suing some networks that don't allow this. This isn't a hundred percent fully formed thought But this splitting of everyone in their own network could make all video on the internet worse as networks would be a Lot less likely to give everyone free power and co-location for a CDN box as if everybody does it It would cost a ton Also, I can see some networks trying to bundle space for their CDN box along with a lower price for channel carriage on the cable Company that runs that network Meaning we will charge Verizon Fios less to carry ESPN if they let us co-low CDNs for Disney stuff in every city This could get really hairy. Yeah, if it's just Netflix, this is fine It's an interesting idea and it makes kind of some sense, but if everybody does this Yeah, and ever I like everybody with all their CBS all access whoever this gets real weird.

That's that's what I want to do. Yep point out my horrible memory But because you had it in the lineup. I remembered that's why I remember because I saw it as I go crap. Yep. I Like pales rails and automobiles. Yeah, it sounds like a John Candy. Yeah, Steve Martin. Maybe I'm assuming that's exactly what it's meant to sound like Yeah, that's the reference I got more of this on my phone would oh the magnetic putty. Yeah, just while I'm talking here Is it like magnetic putty in your hands? I know and that's the second time I made that joke. I know but I just can't stop myself. It's that word you said earlier.

I feel like there's some science here, but I don't care could be Ionic It might just be sticky might just be boring science weird science All this Eclipse talk All right, I want to admit something and I have admitted this to dr. Kiki. This is no this is no secret I am jealous of this week in science theme song. Now. I love our theme song. Don't get me wrong I know not everybody loves but I love it I know I got no quibble with our theme song, but I do am jealous of words Because the words are this week in science. Yeah, the lyrics are pretty great So I aim to do something about it. Oh, oh, hey Why don't you stand? I'm just saying emails with Andrew Allen may have been exchanged He's a good one to contact I Don't know if they'll have lyrics though I may still need it to go after the lyricist So if you if you out there or lyricist be thinking I know anyone Never you should do is kind of dead mouse it So it's you make you sample out your saying daily tech news show or whatever you want the the main lyrics to be Eric van skyhawk does that yeah He did that like a one of my TMS is like this one I Mean it's not my voice, but you know, it's got kind of a EDM quality to it That's what you need to lay in the assumption skill, but We're gonna do that. No, no if you're gonna do that you should do it like death metal so You need to do your Beth Cookie monster screaming of the mic sample that I think that's why I need a jazzier version to be able to come up with lyrics for Yeah, unless you scream it like like death metal style. Yeah, because what I did there is not acceptable Just now just do Yeah, that's not that's not what we're looking for No, but see that would be great because it can be contrast so much with the show people are expecting like Like headbangers ball and really what they're gonna get is is something that makes your skin crawl Something that makes you cringe and say Suggestions, I mean I'm not telling you to go war or anything like that, but yes, listen lyrics are cool Singing is cool if you're good at singing and I am not holding myself as an example of that What if we get it like the high school acapella group? Maybe depends on the high school Yeah, go down. Hey Tom go down to the high school. Just hang around no one will think anything's weird. Yeah, no No, I'm sure I'm sure it'd be fine. No, just talk to other girls. I'll just explain that. I'm you know I'm just looking for lyricists That's no like I kid you not like back in high school our choir our core group as We're hired out for events for like Weddings or is that the style we want the Roger? Is that is that the one is that what we're after? Well, you would be the client so you would say no, we're the client you you and I are the client No, that's what you are the client you would determine. Do we want acapella is that? Wow, you're really against acapella. I'm just asking you a question. I didn't say whether It's really good. Why not why not a barbershop quartet? All right Oh, I have answers to why not a barbershop. Oh, yeah, why the they're terrible and never I'd like to be the text of hey, we're in a barbershop and these guys are singing isn't that funny I don't think it's good for like just life Daily It writes itself Oh Yeah Let me see if I can get something better for y'all to work with before we start doing you know what? You can put a little soul into it and get kind of like a Jefferson's theme going on. I don't want this to turn into American Idol It's the first time I've ever heard you say I Don't want to have to make fun of people that's all it's not really your Who are you making fun of? Well, I'm thinking of people submitting bad music. That's all Well, you would make fun of them in private so that's You would make fun of them in front. No, I would make fun of them in public too No, I know we have some real legit musicians out there and And I will give you more to go on once I have more to go on but I just wanted to Strike a rich in the chat room says maybe the new heart theme available. Oh, Christy Kate's Yeah, I knew we've been wanting to collaborate. Well, actually Andrew Allen wants to collaborate too. So yeah, we got lots of we got lots of options If you need guitars Beau Schwartz does killer stuff. Oh really. Oh, yeah, he does a one core and it is epic It's really really good He makes a version for every character in the game. So we play different one every week All right, we got we got options. Well, and again, I really like the DTS theme song that we have so you know Martin Bell made the opening theme song and maybe Martin Bell's got some lyric ideas Martin you listening Martin are you out there buddy?
