 This is gonna be great. You know what? No matter what guys, Tom is back on Tuesday and and so just you know Point your toes and think of handbags So let's see so now alpha geek radio should be hearing us. I am going to Immediately stop and start the audio record again and it's Darren you feeling ready? Yeah, I'm set. Let's do it. All right. Here we go stopping the record starting the record Out to play some music Oh wait, no, I need the line up in front of me. This is hard. How does Tom do this? It's muscle memory for him that muscle memory. All right, here we go. Tell me if you hear it This is the Daily Tech news show for Friday May 15 2015 Tom Merritt is out of office. So it is producers choice Friday I'm Jenny Josephson and Roger Chang and I are pressing the buttons and reading headlines today But mercifully we are not alone. It's right Jenny Our regular Friday team is also here today to make sure nothing goes horribly horribly off the rails We have Darren kitchen and of course the amazing Len Peralta. Yay That's right. You can blame it on us if everything goes awry. That's the whole point. That's what we're doing We're we're spreading the blame across four people instead of just two I can take a quarter of the blame. That's that's cool. I'm okay with that Excellent. All right. Well yesterday We accidentally made Justin and Andrew main read and react to about 35 headlines, which was hilarious So we're gonna try to make sure we stick to under 10 today But we're gonna start off with oh by the way, no music because I couldn't make it onto my sound board So we're gonna add that in post like we do TechCrunch reports that Google announced it will begin testing autonomous vehicles on public roads in Mountain View this summer The self-piloted vehicles will be limited to a maximum speed of 25 miles per hour And each will include a safety driver who can take over at any point. Hopefully they'll be paying attention Google said its fleet has logged nearly a million miles of cumulative driving within its test facilities Which Google says is equal to a 75 years of human driving experience We're gonna have much more on this to come in the discussion section But I want everybody to kick this off with one word about this Roger. What's your one word? I would like to have a self-driving car Darren swerve All right, well moving from cars to airlines United Airlines announced this week that it's launching a bug bounty program Inviting researchers to report bugs in its websites apps and online portals It's believed to be the first bounty program offered by an airline, but wide reports that United's program Specifically this is very important excludes bugs on on-board Wi-Fi Entertainment systems are avionics and United notes that quote any testing on aircraft or aircraft systems such as in-flight entertainment or in-flight Wi-Fi could result in criminal investigations Researchers who report vulnerabilities in the airline's websites or apps will be rewarded in mileage points So no real cash, but possibly a discounted flight to somewhere The awards range from 50,000 points for cross-site scripting bugs to 1 million For high severity vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker to conduct remote code execution on a united system This is cool And this is most likely in reaction to something that happened a few weeks ago We're united banned a security researcher by the name of press Roberts after he was tweeting about some of the insecurities of their In-flight Wi-Fi system specifically it being connected to their avionics systems, which isn't really cool The it's typical to see like in say a penetration test a scope of engagement where they'll say like This is what you can attack and this is what you can't which is cool that they're saying like hey, please don't hack the Wi-Fi stuff Maybe that's a little bit of them and like admitting it's vulnerable. I don't know but But the thing is like malicious actors bad actors don't see those sort of limitations So I would hope that maybe in a controlled environment. They would allow security researchers to actually hammer on those systems to make it better Now I'm still still amazed that they don't separate or at least firewall off the The passenger section what Wi-Fi from the stuff that actually needs the plane to work There's so many things that the will der me when it comes to aviation and security For example ABS B or T cast these are these surveillance broadcast systems that prevent planes from running into each other Totally unauthenticated unencrypted and the FAA knows it and they say like well, you know So security is hard security is hard But driving is easy according to the Wall Street Journal Activist investor Carl Icahn has invested a hundred million dollars in ride-sharing startup lift the money is an extension of a round of Funding lift announced in March that values the three-year-old company at two point five billion dollars in an interview Mr. Icahn said putting money into San Francisco based lift is a good deal when compared with larger rival Uber technologies Which is valued at forty one billion dollars Jonathan Christodoro one of Icahn's managing directors will be added to lift's board of directors Uber has expanded to more than two hundred and fifty cities internationally But to date lift operates in sixty five cities only in the United States. So Carl Icahn is bargain hunting Yes, and you know if anyone knows anything about Carl Icahn he drives a very hard bargain So I'm wondering at what point will the other investors on lift begin to get tired of him? Because he's known to you know, they use the term Activist investor like it's something positive But he's just really a loudmouth guy who wants to make sure he gets more money than he put in and so It's you know, it's it's good for lift. They didn't need the funding So could be a rare case where he actually does something positive All right, wait and see all right The next web has a story from the Financial Times Reporting that an executive at a European carrier confirmed that it and several of its peers are planning to start blocking Adverts this year and it will be available as an opt-in service However, they are closely considering applying the technology across their entire mobile networks According to the reports anonymous sources the carriers have installed software from Israeli ad blocking firm shine in their data centers to block Advertising and webpages and apps but not social networks the plan which would be devastating the companies relied on Advertising is not limited to a single European network and apparently It's an aim is to break Google's stranglehold on online advertising So it's it's very the thing is I'm not sure this will actually pass muster with you Regulators just because of the way it works But it does signal kind of the profound threat that Google has on a lot of Different markets and even even the EU which is a very large You know market to be in that you know all these you know existing advertisers or firms feel threatened that they need to band together and break its hold Well, you know, I look at this and I see that this on the technical side I think that the problem here is that we're still relying on really antiquated protocols like HTTP Which can be meddled with in transit. That's what enables this Israeli ad block system to even work Unfortunately, there's no ubiquitous way to actually verify the web page that you downloaded is actually the one that was served up The carriers can just as easily replace and remove ads as they could say replace headlines from CNN comm to make it say that kittens Have taken over the White House So I think what we really need here is actually a system that will ensure that what we're being served is actually what's being sent Which will not only satisfy advertisers because they know that hey If we bake it into the page it will be seen but it'll it'll help security and privacy advocates because it will help with censorship Yeah, it's it's one of those things where you know as we all know businesses take it's kind of like electricity They take the path of lease resistance anything that costs more money that they have to do even if it's in their better interest Generally kind of gets shuffled off to the side report on the back burner as they kind of concentrate on the now Well, the system always finds way and that's why I'm saying you know Just just hack together a better protocol where you can no longer do that and it's not a viable business and then we all win Yeah Is there something going on in the security world we should know about Darren? Yeah, Krebs on security. He's reporting on a cache of data apparently stolen from the spyware service M Spy which is currently stored on a Tor web server The data includes account information from some four million events including photos and calendar data corporate email threads and more M spy if you're not familiar with it M spy promotes itself as a way to monitor family members and boast over a million users Potentially even jealous lovers when surreptitiously installed on iOS or Android it will collect SMS messages Skype WhatsApp snapchat as well as all other keystrokes So it's spyware and they just got owned It's kind of actually ironic that the piece of software that's safe Potentially an overprotective parent would put on their child's phone is in fact the device that is undoing their child's security By allowing them to become doxxed It's it is definitely kind of a yeah canisters you're right But speaking of things that serve other people Oculus has revealed. It's a really bad segue Apologize Oculus is reversed revealed the recommended specification for PC rigs powering the Oculus rip headset according to tech crunch Now these are the specs that they recommend in an NVIDIA GTX 970 video card or AMD 290 equivalent or greater and then till I 545 90 equivalent or greater and 8 gigs of RAM now That's the recommended they also have a required which is essentially the minimum spec You need Windows 7 service pack one or newer to USB through point oh point 3.0 ports and an HDMI 1.3 video output supporting 297 megahertz clock via direct output architecture now on their blog post the Oculus chief Architect atman Benz doc says that GP GPU performance is super important because you're basically running to 2160 by 1200 displays one for each eye and 90 Hertz simultaneously Which takes around three times the GPU power of your average for HD 1080p rendering That you would get in the game or any kind of other Situation drop frames are also fine on traditional desktops But for the most part while missing frames and VR results and cons well missing frames and VR results and discomfort Disorientation and sometimes seasickness Benz also notes that Oculus still wants to develop for Mac and Linux that at this stage They quote don't have a timeline which means maybe two three years It's it's pretty beefy specs, but you know considering the technology. It's not surprising When can I play it and what can I play? These are the things I want to know Anyway IGN reports that harmonics maker of the upcoming rock band four revealed the first six songs in the new game Only one of which I really know can you guess which one the songs are a Venge sevenfolds hail to the king Fleetwood max you make love and fun Jack white Lazareto the killers somebody told me the spin doctors little miss little miss Can't be wrong and the who's the seeker so if you didn't guess it was the spin doctors Hey 90s great to have you back Rock band four is coming sometime this fall and a harmonics just did a live demo a little while back So check out that video which we will link to in the show notes. You know I like spin doctors when when they came out when I was in college I like spin doctors now because I'm that old I still just prefer rock band over guitar hero because it's like a more community like it's not a negative reinforcement game It's not one of those where it's just constantly irking at you every time you miss a note. It's yeah, it's good stuff It's fun. It is it's a fun game and I I do prefer guitar hero over rock band But basically because rock band needs you that required and that doesn't require sort of implicitly demands that you have an ensemble with you which It's more fun if you do Polygon reports that blizzards Diablo 3 has been overrun by cows in our third anniversary of the game Battle.net will only say that rumors allege that townships throughout Conduras are being overrun by bipedal Bartish bearing bovine and then and then strenuously denies any knowledge of their existence The event is homage to the secret cow level Diablo 2 and will continue until dust on May 21st Bartish bearing bovine. I wrote that just for you Roger. That is a tongue twister That is a tongue. I will say that I will try I will try to find it. I will try to find it If you are one of the people who felt a burning sensation of injustice when Fox announced it canceled the Mindy project after only three seasons Then listen up and gadget reports that Hulu will pick up the series starting with a 26 episode fourth season That's a lot of episodes for a streaming platform. That's pretty big deal The show which is named for star Mindy Kaling already streams on the TV subscription service as one of several Fox series available there So the news isn't too surprising, but still very welcome to the core community There's no word on a premiere date just yet, but when it arrives, I'll be one of the many Hulu original series It'll be one of the many Hulu original series that you really mean to watch, but just haven't yet canceled broadcast shows are first getting revived online regularly these days as Yahoo nabbed community Which I still haven't watched but totally mean to and Netflix is no stranger to picking up discarded series too So all of this magic is happening and yet there is still no quantum leap Strive to put right what once went wrong Hulu do it for me Me but do we really want Scott Bacchula? I do I do Leap through 20 years of his life, but he's still in the past Always be the captain to me All right, so now we've got up coming some news from you which we picked from the subreddit and Roger's gonna kick us off with that. Yes, huh? Hobbit, oh, you want me to jump in? Yeah Dulce Sent us this warning about mobile payments and passwords Starbucks app users are getting their bank accounts drained by password guessing fees according to gizmodo people with Starbucks Rewards can link the coffee payment app to their bank accounts or credit cards or pay-pound accounts Big big flashing warning lights right there Scammers by gift cards and then sell them illegally the consumer journalist Bob Sullivan said that Starbucks mobile payments fraud are a big deal with the company because they Process around two billion dollars of mobile transactions as of last year Now Starbucks has acknowledged that this scam is happening But it hasn't said that it's been hacked that you know We haven't been hacked instead. They're blaming users for using poor passwords and I can kind of believe them I mean, I don't know connecting anything to your bank account. I'm sorry There's a truism in technology the more convenient you make it the more liable is gonna get hacked You have to think about security as a chain and if say you're trying to protect your bank account You have to consider all of the things that are then linked to it and that applies to anything But yes, you're absolutely right convenience is always going to win out in the society and that's why Considering it is their app rather than blame it on their customers bad passwords Maybe update the app so that it doesn't allow you to register with a bad password Although that would make the no that's not gonna go They could just do two two two factor authentication No, they do it once you know what it is They're gonna make it as simple as possible because they need to be able to do it at the register Rogers old guy one word of advice to everyone out there. Don't connect anything to your bank account All right, the only one who has access to it is me and perhaps the bank. That's it. No one else. Yep Another Jay Martin submitted the ours technical article with this amazing headline Humanity weeps as Candy Crush saga comes pre-installed with Windows 10 We almost don't have to say anything more but Microsoft announced that King's addictive game will be the Minesweeper of Windows 10 And if that's not enough we'll include cross-play options for iOS and Android devices No word yet if there's an opt-out for those who want to use the new Windows operating system to actually work The Lewis guy sent us a torrent freak article about angry YouTube man Benjamin Liguri was filed a lawsuit at the US district court for district of Rhode Island Which lists Google Viacom Lionsgate and another youtuber as defendants Liguri bemoans a restrictive YouTube user contract in a system that unfairly handles copyright complaints The Gary says that he has uploaded content to YouTube under the name better stream for purposes including quote Criticism comment news reporting teacher teaching scholar. Wow. He's really loading this down loader a scholarship and and or research But never in breach of copyright Nevertheless, he claims to have fallen foul of YouTube's automated anti piracy systems when he uploaded what he claims as a parody of the girl with A dragon tattoo movie only to have it removed by YouTube after another YouTube user filed the complaint. I Mean, I'm kind of glad he's doing this I don't know it necessarily if he's the strongest case study But somebody's got to crack that system because it really is a pain in the butt And it absolutely prevents you from uploading things to YouTube that you would other was like to do You know, but the thing to understand event, you know Ultimately YouTube is a privately held entity platform and you need to you need to subscribe to its rules It's you know, when they were a little less stringent was awesome, but you know as more vested interests and more money and more people Start taking a closer look at it. You're gonna you invariably run into these things, right? That's a good point It is their playground and if even if it weren't for the DMCA They could just say we can take your video down because we want to we would reserve the right to refuse service to anyone So I guess in that case you could just host it on your own. It's not hard to these days. Yeah, it's it's you know It's a double-edged sword Yeah, I don't have the music so I'm just gonna say Dude alright, so as we mentioned in the headlines Google self-driving cars are coming to public roads this summer the vehicles will be limited to a maximum speed of 25 miles per Hour and each will include a safety driver who can take over at any point be the on-board wheel brake and accelerator gentlemen discuss Yeah, you know, I actually am very much in favor of the whole concept if not necessarily the the first iterations of Autonomous automobile's I mean it's been one of the it's been one of the kind of goals ever since like the 50s To have a car or you could just kind of sit back and let it drive itself So you can work for the man 24-7 and not be disturbed by something like you know driving yourself home from the corporate office But at the same time and there's a number of hurdles. I think they need to overcome You know the number one is like the very litigious nature of People at least in the US when it comes to things like this Yeah, I just I feel like you know Part of it is the American love affair with the automobile and I kind of wish that as much effort is being put towards revamping public transit so that we have more efficient means of getting around But that's never going to take place because we have to be independent with our cars and such and so These baby steps are going to take a long long time 25 miles an hour Sounds pretty good, but I actually have a feeling that that's actually going to cause more incidents because the self-driving is limited at that speed Because at least here in California if you're not also going 10 miles over the limit you're going to get cut off and and Run over run over. Yeah, I mean the larger point to me is that Everybody has to do this all at once or else it's not going to work and nobody's ever going to want to do this all Like not everybody's going to want to do this so that it leads you to the question of like all right So they're going to be a whole separate Like freeway systems for self-driving cars I think yeah We could put we could put them on rails and we could put all the cars on different rails and then they could just yeah We can have trains pull them in fact so You know so you guys bring up a really interesting point and one of my at least philosophical You know things about self-driving cars is if you take it to its logical Kind of end it can serve actually as a private and the private or a hybrid private public transit system Right imagine if you could take one of these cars and you could kind of hitch it into a train You put on an each of v-lane that it's entirely automated So for that entire stretch of your commute say on you know up here on 280 or 101 You know everyone in that chain doesn't have to touch your car It's moving at the optimal speed for like a 10-car train of these cars with another 10 behind it Which would be great, and I honestly think that initially there will be rules that will say that As long as you're in the HIV lane for this section of how you can drive you'll have a little sign This says you know a diamond lane a diamond lane automatically enables you to have Auto automated driving mode it hits the freeway and then when it you know when it's coming off And you're about to turn off the warranty and say you know you better grab the steering wheel And if you don't it's just going to keep keep on going in the giant loop Around the freeway. Yeah The handoff is where a lot of the problem is because if you are figuring like the reason we want self-driving cars Is that we can be like texting our friends and stuff? Instead of having to keep our eyes on the road But when the car does alert us and say hey a situation is occurring that's going to require your you know Human ability to drive the car not my computer ability to drive the car So please take over turns out that the switch over takes somewhere around seven seconds Which is like way too long and unfortunately there's not like a So there's not a patch to the human to make us better at doing that There's a really you're all paying attention or not paying attention There's no kind of sort of paying attention in the car, right? And there's a great article on medium detailing the from the perspective of the self-driving car and how the incidents that the Google and other researchers Testing these have discovered is that you know, we are just terrible terrible drivers I think what was really interesting is that of like 50% of the serious injuries injuries on US roads Happened in intersections and Google pointed out a really good example of like say a bicyclist in a intersection at the same time that the light turns green on the opposing traffic and Almost gets hit and this is totally the case as somebody who has in fact been in us You know serious injury in an intersection that I was actually told by a California police officer that the most dangerous color in California is fresh green and so yeah, you're right. It's either we are all in self-driving cars or Where there's few of them that are going slow and obeying the laws and getting cut off by all the non self-driving cars I think I think I'll be in a will be in a weird hybrid mode Like a system failsafe won't allow you to turn it on until you reach An approved section of road or highway or whatever deemed by the state that you can use it on I mean, it's it's actually quite It's quite seductive if you can think about it if you imagine like you were talking about mass transit Imagine if you had a mass transit system or each of the compartments that you sat in you actually just Kind of leased out it would drop you directly at your door Right instead of owning the actual car and this is great because one of the concerns is like well What if someone doesn't maintain their you know automated car and some of the sensors fail and you know it goes spinning off? Well, if all you do is lease it and then you turn it in after a certain amount of time And they can refer rich make sure everything's up to spec So you're never having to worry about someone driving like a 15 year old You know Google car even though like you know the technology's bypassed it, you know 10 times In that in that same amount of time. I don't know. It's it's I like the idea. I think it's I think it'd be great I think no because I love it too I just feel like you know It's not you have to accept the fact that it's never going to be perfect And that it takes a huge change in the infrastructure when you think about things like autopilot on airplanes Which we've had you know since the 60s With like glide scopes and auto land and things of that nature even still in this day and age We have incidents with those because computers malfunction that even as early as 2009 Turkish Airlines Boeing 737 crashed in Amsterdam When its radio altimeter was malfunctioning reporting it being some eight feet higher than it actually was and by the time that the Crew actually noticed and just similar to a car saying hey human something's not right here take over by the time They figured out they were already in a low-speed stall, and it was already too late I mean you know you but the point you bring up is you know in the analogy to this is that when you do a handoff on the Automated car you're going off on offer going off a highway and off, you know into a surface street Take off and departures to you know a plane is the most dangerous You know part of flying for like 90% of the flight most pilots let the autopilot fly because There's nothing to really do and it measures out the actual arrival time where they need to to end up at the airport You can't arrive too soon. You don't want to arrive too late And so there's always this kind of you know desire to be at a perfect thing You just let the computer handle that portion of it, right? I'm not saying that you will have the car drive you You know down to the safeway automatically, but like if you go on the if you're on like a two-hour commute You know it's a pretty straight run of road Yeah, granted you have to stop and maybe the occasional person jerk might cut you off But you know we have technology that already kind of addresses that and if we can do that portion of it I think it would save a lot of people time bottom line. When are we getting this and then we're gonna I would say cars I think initial cars next year and then possibly by 2020 very rich people will have Access to selected roads to do whatever they want All right Well, thank you guys and if you guys have any thoughts about self-driving cars Do feel free to write us a feedback at daily tech news show calm And we have two picks of the day today I always love it when these things come in in weird batches like we get two of the exact same pick of the day So Roger's gonna take the first one. I'm gonna tell you about the second one And this one's from Christian Cantrell. He writes. Hey guys with all the recent wearable discussion I thought I'd submit one of my favorite devices for a pick of the day the new Garmin Phoenix 3 fitness smart watch With Apple watch Android wear and pebble time getting most of the smart watch attention It's even to overlook the Phoenix But if you're looking for a smart watch that is a watch first fitness tracker second and a smart device last This is it the best features of the Phoenix are always on color display built-in GPS Both activity and hardcore training features extensive outdoor and hiking features iOS Android compatible smart notifications from your phone water-resistant to 100 meters I could go on and on about what why I think for money people the Phoenix 3 is the best smart watch But it basically reduces to this it's a watch first activity fitness device second and the extension of your smartphone last for me It's exactly the right priority So that was Christian and then David Wilkie writes in hello Tom Jenny Roger co-host and he's just south of lovely Cleveland in Columbus A few months ago David lost his pebble watch So he's been holding out on a replacement decision pending the pebble to in the Apple watch and you know He's still weighing his options So he was in the golf store the other day and all the golf GPS widgets and wearables caught his eye I mean the pro shop is a very difficult dangerous place to be And so he wanted to see if there were any wearables that do all fitness stuff plus notifications So they showed him the Garmin Vivo active which they hadn't yet put on display So it's similar to the new pebble it has a color e-ink display But Vivo active is touchscreen just swipe the display to bring up notifications calendar music player weather and the activities Additionally the Vivo active has built-in GPS and specific tracking apps for run bike and walk both stationary treadmill or outside It also has a swimming tracking app as the watch is water resistant to 5 ATMs And of course since it was in the pro shop It has a golf app that you upload your most frequent courses to the watch and you have golf GPS So he says it's very lightweight and has a similar look and feel to original pebble And they're slowly building out their app store so you can download different faces So bottom line David is bummed he lost his pebble But he's pleasantly surprised at how Garmin is becoming competitive in the smart watch space So send your pics if you have them to feedback at daily tech news show comm and you can find Tom's pics on our website On the pics page daily tech news show comm slash pics Alright, so now we have some messages of the day Who oh wait note. That's just mistake. Oh mistake. All right So this is in the discussion on Thursday May 14 2015 I think the comparison of Walmart to Amazon is off base I think Walmart is missing their greatest strength and that is their stores being everywhere What they should you do is use the Best Buy model That is to buy things that are in the local store and just have them ready for pickup I find best buy service in this category to be awesome No looking through the store for items that you're looking for the items are available within the same day if Walmart had had The same ability I would love it. It would save a lot of time that is normally wasted looking for items throughout the store Now Roger's gonna read you one and then I'm gonna tell you who wrote that one because I totally forgot to add it All right So one of the reasons that I love the DTNS audiences because they are so devoted to getting things right Yesterday we had an email about sound sound standards which would end up paired with the new blue rays coming down the road today Josh Garner wrote the original email wrote us again. He writes this time Yesterday my email regarding the audio spec that will be used on blu-ray was read on the show and I incorrectly stated that DTS Had not yet announced their audio spec Dolby has and it'll be called Dolby Atmos as a quick reminder Apparently DTS did announce a spec last week and I missed it It's it will be called DTS X aside from the aforementioned compressed audio and uncompressed audio DTS X will not use discrete channels like double Dolby digital instead I'll use an algorithm to extract plate your particular speaker set up supporting a limitless number of speakers any shape and position The blu-ray spec will support DTS second Dolby digital at most All right, so it was Paul Franz who did that first one So that made me happy and then the last that one was a guy named David. So no that was that was Josh All right getting confused That's David. It was off. Oh No, wait, I'm confused. That's a different thing. I think there was some cutting and pasting situation We made it so far in this show doing reasonably well Things got a little goofy So but the reason why things went so well is really Darren kitchen Who jumped in as usual on Friday our wonderful Friday contributor who never misses a Friday unless? He's in a bunker somewhere So Darren tell us what's going on with you? Oh, man. We've got so much great things happening over at hack five We recently relaunched a threat wire to show all about security privacy and internet freedom It's by myself as well as Patrick Norton and Shannon Morse and we're bringing that three days a week So we've been covering all sorts of good stuff happening between Venom and NSA metadata collection And some of the other stories we've talked about today So go and check it out if you're interested in security and privacy. It's at hack five org or you could just Google threat wire It's all good stuff. Awesome. And then Len Peralta Has given us driverless DTNS Yes, this is the show was was was kind of driving itself and And and I think you guys did a great job So for those of you who cannot see this in the video It's it's a driverless car that is actually saying and I'm assuming it's Tom who's kind of controlling it saying Shouldn't you be paying attention to the oh god the babies? What have you done to the babies? And Jenny is saying she's singing I'm little miss can't be wrong to her the spin doctors Roger Chang is singing him on the top of the world looking down on creation We talked free show about the carpenters and up with Mad Max coming out today Darren at kitchen is saying what a lovely day Spectacular and also I love it because not only is it the spin doctors, but I am technically little miss can't be wrong No, cuz I almost wrote I'm on the on the I'm the queen of the world. I'm like no She's made a little miss can't be wrong says and that is corrected so many ways I have to buy this right now. Where do I buy it? Oh, yeah Go to Len per ultra store com you can pick it up there It is actually on the the site right now as we speak You can also get all the prints that I do if you back me a patreon at the DTNS lover level You'll get every single one of these for free digitally It's great and also one more thing at the at the online store. I've just You know geek a week is available I've just launched a new season of a geek a week Which you can actually now pick up the cards and the training the trading cards and the game which includes Tom Merritt Frank Belmont Justin Robert Young bunch of people Scott Johnson a bunch of folks that are friends of frog pants and And if you look there is a I've added a limited amount of Geek a week black decks Kickstarter exclusive decks that come with a surprise card in it So if you if you were a fan of I can't really tell you what the card is just to say I will say CAH that's all I'll say. All right. I want to add that you guys may or may not know that Len also does Custom drawings for people and he just did one for me this past weekend, which was Spectacular I can't tell you it was for because they haven't received it yet because I'm gonna print it out all special and pretty But I thought that it was a really great process and an incredibly special gift So don't forget that that that also happens Thank you. Yeah. Also. Thanks to Roger Chang who came in here and gave this show some serious legitimacy today I've never heard that phrase used before And and of course thanks to all of our 5054 patrons who have been Making it possible for us to have contributors making it possible for me to pay my rent and most importantly Making it possible for Tom Merritt to broadcast add a free and Independent which is an incredibly rare incredibly valuable thing in today's world So thank you guys for that. I wish I could thank you like every day But really we'll just keep trying to bring you the best show we possibly can Yeah, and our email address is feedback at daily tech new show calm call us 512 59 daily And listen to the show live at tune in at alpha geek radio calm and visit our website at daily tech new show calm Alrighty you guys should be hearing some theme music Monday's guest Veronica Bellamon will fill in for Tom on the last day that Tom is not here And we liked him so much.

Stop this recording. Oh my goodness. Thank you guys so much. That was incredible It happened I gotta look at this picture again. I'm making this It came together at the very last I was a scared I was scared when I added those when I added those things about spin doctors and Mad Max and Carpenters really came together for me, so Wow, it actually I love it. It actually it has to me it has shades of Charlie's angels where Where Tom is just Charlie and we're like running around doing his bidding. That makes me Bosley. I guess yeah You just need less hair How does that guy sound like this got a real weird voice. Yeah, all right It's a pretty amazing alright so some titles We have breaking news kittens are taking over the White House And I don't what I don't know what archive first one was but it's Oh That's that game where if you tap something, it's very apparent to you what it is, but if the person hearing the tapping can't figure out what the song is, they just did a study about that. We also have bipedal, bardish-bearing bovines, which Nii really is one of the only, but let's see what else. We have candy crushes, Minesweeper, that's good. Maybe is hard, but driving is easy. Oh, this is pretty great. I can have, has lived. That's pretty, that's pretty funny. I will vote for that. That's pretty funny. I like that one a lot. Let's see if there's anything. Doxing your own family. There is no cow level. Quantum Hulu, thank you very much. Who's was that in the mic? Circuit. Take the wheel. Let's see. Circuit. Oh, that's totally what Google needs for the self-driving car is an anthropomorphized virtual assistant that drives kind of like Siri. So it's like, and Google now is just not doing it, it just doesn't have enough personality. We need like some sort of like Kermit the frog type character that's like, I got the wheel, Bob. Now I would just say, just re-didge the voice for Night Rider and just tell everyone you're driving kit. Oh, yes. And then you'll totally believe that the car drives itself. Be awesome. And then you'll get sidetracked on, you know, adventures as you try to, you know, uncover a corruption at a local municipality or something like that, smuggling drugs. No, what I like is give it the how voice from 2001 and just be like, you know, how take the Howard Street exit and then have your car be like, I'm sorry, I can't do that, Dave. If it gave you the voice of your mother and so he would drive, but it was also a nag you at the same time. So that would be how I drove your mother. Oh, yeah. What am I seeing here? It looks awesome.
