 Kanye West which is which is hit-and-miss as far as Stuff that makes sense So well, it's the same Right my favorite my favorite Kanye tweet, and I'm gonna butcher it exactly if somebody can find it But it was well about Bill Cosby, right? Yeah, I don't have Twitter on my phone. I only use it on my computer I brought my MacBook in the club Okay, which is It's like I'm dedicated, but I'm making it harder on myself And I want everyone to know that for whatever reason it's like I could just imagine just your stereotypical kind of like intro LA club scene of debauchery and there is bespectacled Kanye Typing out his tweet on his MacBook while also working on his bio Writing up a philosophy text. Oh my god. It's infected my brain those videos.

All right, put the bird away Put a bird off it get to the show and house in your soul. Yeah All right, we're locked in we're locked in top. All right good Uh, Sarah Lane if you would do us the honors I would in three two Daily Tech news show is powered by you to find out more head to daily tech news show comm slash support This is the Daily Tech news for Thursday April 19th 2018 in Los Angeles. I'm Tom Merritt also in Los Angeles at studio feline I'm Sarah Lane in Oakland, California. I'm Justin Robert. Yeah, and Permeating the world our producer Roger Chang Hello You are you are global does he do it? I I don't know because he's bad He's nationwide. It's a bad baby. We got We got some we got some some thoughts today We got we got we have words that we're gonna say on this alliance day a little bit later about ad-tracking and Facebook But not the same story different take. Let's start with a few tech things you should know Motor Rollers 2018 G5 lineup announced today includes well kind of a lot of models the Moto G6 the G6 plus the G6 play The E5 the E5 plus and the E5 play all models have fingerprint sensors dual cameras at USBC And with the exception of the E5 18 by 9 aspect ratio screens the Moto G6 will sell for around $250 to give you a sense of where we are on that scale Availability starts in Brazil today at Mexico next week and additional nations in the months to come Google's App Engine is discontinuing domain Fronting which previously let services use Google's network to get around state level internet blocks this applies to apps like signal greatfire.org and Siphons VPN service among others according to Google quote domain fronting has never been a supported feature and quote But it did allow developers to use Google as a proxy forwarding traffic to their own servers through the Google comm domain They are no longer fronting Intel confirmed a tech crunch and has shuttered its vaunt smart glasses aka the super light project Information has sources who say this also marks the end of Intel's new devices group and will result in some layoffs To that 200 person team back in 2016 the group had a round of layoffs and shelved other key projects in its hardware pipeline Including the basis fitness tracker. They were working on at the time I have often thought this was Intel's big bet, but it sounds like it's a bet that didn't pay off now That said while Intel is searching around for a new direction to sink its money into Let's talk a little bit more about what Facebook's doing regarding the same space Facebook has posted a job listing for a manager to build an end-to-end SOC ASIC firmware and driver development organization Sources tell Bloomberg that Facebook wants to design its own semi-conductors Facebook AI researcher Yan Lacan tweeted Wednesday that candidates interested designing chips for AI Yeah, so it seems like this is for real now This isn't too far off what Google is doing where they are designing chips for AI and again It's I think it's important to note. They're not building them They're not making foundries the fact that there are so many places like a Foxconn out there that can build this stuff for you It gives companies a little more flexible to say if we get some good chip designers We can do what Apple did they bought PA semi and a few other companies back in the day now They designed their own chips. Maybe we can do that too But it sounds like Facebook wants to do it for AI based stuff So maybe in smart speakers or maybe getting into the space like Google is in right now Providing AI as a service through the cloud something like that It does make it look like Intel who we just mentioned Might be a dinosaur in wanting to be just a chip maker That you that this may be something that companies can just bring in house for future product lines Well, I mean Intel was not trying to be just a chip maker It just seems like the the this hardware arm Wasn't really working out for them. There was a statement that Intel you said, you know We try a lot of things and they don't always work, which is that's real standard boilerplate stuff But but yeah, I mean the fact that you were working on smart glasses, which were announced not that long ago Not to go back to the previous story, but I just did and then to shutter Apparently the entire group of let's do things other than just chips which Intel is known for and then the fact that Facebook has Enough money to license with whoever right like previous licensing agreements or licensing agreements that have been the standard thus far Don't have to work and especially a company like Facebook. They don't really you know They don't have to like play by those rules anymore Yeah, and by the way, this is something that Apple not only got into with their iPhone chipsets, but also now the rumors over the last few weeks that they're gonna ditch Intel for their laptops too, so the world of custom chip making is Heating up even more than it was before Earth now a space imaging startup backed by Airbus softbank Greg Wieler's one web Greg Wieler is somebody you should know that name Should ring a bell because he has been declared the most powerful man in telecommunications He is somebody that in the telecommunications world is right up there with Bill Gates Who's also backing this project earth now which says it's working on a constellation of satellites to provide real time real time One second latency video of the entire planet So you could look at a part of the planet and see what was happening there no more than one second ago in video Earth now lists storm monitoring illegal fishing vessels forest fires whale tracking conflict Observation as examples of where video with little to no latency would make its product invaluable to governments and enterprise Company says it's still in early stages. It just spun out of Russell Hannigan's intellectual adventures They are often accused of patent squatting, but they occasionally do things and develop things like this Among its big challenges will be compression and power consumption these satellites that earth or that one web Is talking about designing that airbus would build Would have incredible computing power, but you still can't have a lot of power on a satellite It's you just can't carry that much weight this You know again Sounds like the startup is and it's infancy of of building out this infrastructure, but imagine right now There's an earthquake, right? Yeah, and so on twitter. We're all talking about it There might be some pictures here and there, but it's you know the whole thing imagine if you could if you obviously, you know had had A way to to work with earth now Which isn't just going to be for consumers at least not at first Imagine if you had a way to be like, okay. Well, let's look like above the ground in Los Angeles and see where all the fires are Okay, I see oh, okay I've got a I've got a real sense of this almost like you were in a helicopter or something really changes the game for On the ground first response news And the like I also love that they lift that they list illegal fishing vessels as the way It's good Finally fishing snitching taken to a new level that it's a huge problem for sustainability though Uh, so okay. So here's what's interesting ocean piracy, right? Think about stuff that's happening in the water that isn't supposed to happen that you could look at in real time Here's what's fascinating about this though right now there are a lot of questions about like People subverting sanctions for example if you are to have a a network that you could crowd source Whether or not i'm making this up out of whole cloth china is indeed going around UN sanctions to bring supplies either to or from north korea And that's something that people can just look up on the internet and now becomes a story That is gigantic that that is something that could that keep in mind earth now is not talking about a video channel We can all look at this is not google earth This is we will have the capability to look to stream video, but we will have clients that will pay for the privilege This is enterprise and government. So we're not going to get to look at this Well, not at first. Yeah, not immediately as that gets cheaper Then it is more likely and let's say it's even just for governments or for different organizations More eyes on stuff like that is is huge Amazon introduced blueprints for its amazon voice services app, you know, the one Owners to create customized skills or responses without having to write any code Okay, so those of us who aren't coders can customize our experience a little bit on our echo speaker or a third party one That uses the same service blueprints launched with 20 templates that users can use as a jumping off point in categories like fun and games At home storyteller and learning and knowledge and new skills apply to devices associated with the user's own amazon account and are not public So they're truly customizable for your own home at least in theory blueprints is us only for now So for example, I was thinking okay, there are a lot of like really, you know Better use cases for this, but if I was to say to my speaker today, you know, who's the best cat lady in the world She'd say sorry. I don't know that one But I could brain her to say it's yeah, yeah, this is not routines This is not uh, I'm going to bed and then it turns off the lights and turns off the tv that already exists. This is uh, Tell me about the pets for your pet sitter or what does the baby need for the babysitter could be programmed in there Stuff that's specific to you. I tried to make a story with this And when I saved it, it didn't save. I don't know what I did wrong. Oh boo I started on a dog. Yeah, just that thinks All right. Well, hopefully it gets better. Meanwhile Netflix has a new feature for its mobile app that displays circles at the top of the screen that when clicked play a 30 second vertical preview of movies and television shows I know what you're saying. Hey, this is like instagram snorries and snapchat. Yes, and Netflix may be doing something even more interesting sources tell the la times that netflix is considering buying movie theaters in la and new york from landmark theaters, but plans are stalled Overpriced if they won't let them in one way tom. They're gonna buy the whole stinking joint Yeah, this would guarantee netflix Award consideration, right? They wouldn't have to negotiate with theaters even friendly theaters like landmark anymore They just put it in their new york and la owned theaters Rake off a little money also giving them a little bit of leverage with other with the studios, I suppose It it immediately made me think of the days when the studios owned the theaters and that got broken up And they said no fox. You can't own all the movies and all the theaters at the same time I'm surprised this has not happened sooner But you know, it's not just, you know, oscar consideration We had a story the other day about how At the can film festival netflix was like, okay Well, we just won't show movies there because you needed to have run in some french theater chain ahead of time We don't do that well, you know getting the palm doors probably great for netflix, but more More to you know, what i'm thinking of is There is a lot of content on netflix that people love But we're all used to watching it in living rooms or on laptops or even phones There's no big theater experience for a lot of the stuff that would be well received in a theater And maybe I mean there is Netflix shows almost all of its movies like oakja and everything in theaters in order to get awards consideration But it's hard to find the times etc. This could be a bigger deal Right, it's not a major theater that that and netflix could show Other theater owners like hey, look how many people we got when we when we showed it day in day It's not going to hurt you as much as you think just as much a prestige thing as it is Them trying to make it easier to firm for awards and and that in and of itself is a prestige thing But look they're pouring a ton of money into this, uh irishman movie with scorsese They want it to play as big of a movie event as they possibly can Yeah, they can have a red carpet if they own an la landmark theater or new york Facebook says it will shift approximately one and a half billion users outside europeus and canada So basically all its users that aren't in europe us or canada From being governed by the terms of service of its irish operation To being governed by the terms of service of its us operation Those are basically the two ways it's done it up till now us and canada were under the us terms everybody else was under the irish terms, but Moving the non europeans into the us terms means facebook will not be required by law To extend europe's gdpr protections to those users because they're not in europe Facebook has said it will offer the same privacy controls and settings worldwide with only minor variations to conform with local laws So why do this so you don't get sued if i'm offering gdpr protections? Through the irish Basically if i'm in nigeria and i use facebook under the irish terms i'm protected by the gdpr and i can go sue in the european court of justice if something goes wrong Facebook doesn't want that they want to live at that so they're moving only europeans Under the irish terms so that only europeans can sue them in european court Which which brings the number of folks who could potentially sue facebook or facebook, you know getting embroiled in some sort of a scandal From 1.5 billion to something like 400 million it decreases that number a lot Yeah, i mean people are thrashing facebook for all kinds of reasons good and bad these days And and obviously this looks like facebook saying oh, we don't want to provide protections We will wait and see if facebook provides those settings and stuff But i don't think it's unreasonable for a company to say actually we we want the users of our product to operate under the law of their country not Through the laws of another country just because they happen to be under other terms facebook has uh Presumably very well paid legal team that is paid that wakes up every day and says how can i limit the liability of my employer? And and that is what they are doing folks If you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes subscribe to daily tech headlines It comes on your amazon echo google home anchor app and more You can find the way to subscribe as a good old-fashioned podcast at daily tech headlines dot com So a couple of stories out there, uh report just came over the line right before the show by princeton's center for information technology policy website freedom to tinker uh Talking about third-party scripts that were capturing facebook data In other words when you were logging in on say a news website with your facebook login The news website might have this third-party script from add terrific That could capture The data that you said news website could have but you never said add terrific could have Facebook says this is not okay, and they're going to work on it The authors of the paper said that facebook should audit their apis to keep this stuff from happening There's also another story out there about a company called local blocks Who had an unlisted but unprotected amazon s3 storage bucket full of personal data Uh that was discovered by up guards chris vickery. This personal data was scraped from publicly accessible data sources So publicly accessible pages of facebook twitter linkedin zillo, etc all of this is to say Everybody out there is collecting your data. It's not just facebook We're getting all of these stories about oh what third-party data facebook's tracking you even when you're not on facebook.com Even when you're not logged in on facebook.com, but the fact of the matter is So is google so is double-click facebook even says this and they're post about it And it sounds like they're pointing fingers, but it's true if you go to a page Uh in fact, I did this on my patreon column today. I went to the guardian websites Actual page about facebook admitting tracking users off site And I used privacy badger to show that that guardian article Has 31 trackers 36 rather trackers tracking me on that page some many almost all of them are not the guardian They're google. They're double-click double clicks owned by google, etc, etc, etc So where is the line because and the reason I bring this up If I run privacy badger on the guardian on wired On many sites, it'll tell me hey, we think you're using an ad blocker because you're blocking all these third-party trackers They'll use ad blockers. It's our revenue and I'm I'm definitely a person who is amenable to like oh, hey, yeah, I know I want publishers to succeed I want them to do good journalism. I don't want to block your revenue source But also I don't want to be tracked without permission and everybody's very mad at facebook for being out there tracking On third-party websites off of facebook.com So the question we're dealing with is today, where is the line Between supporting publishers by letting them track us and protecting our privacy And are we holding facebook to a different standard than news publishers, etc? Uh, I think that the answer to your second question is no, we're not necessarily holding them to a different standard because by and large what we've had a conversation about in the national press and in front of congress is extensively about The cambridge analytic of a thing now Whether or not we really want to have a conversation about privacy and privacy controls and how much we are being tracked I think is The real defining answer as to what advertising will be over the next 20 years The reason why there are 32 different trackers on that cardian page is because That is what Advertising is right now like and by that I mean all of it from magazines to billboards to television news Everything is going to the web. That is what that is who is making the money and everybody else is suffering For it because they are behind the time so Now that we are at least Cognizant of what is happening because by the way Google became the company that it did Based on this not only ad words, but also double click Facebook has become the company the revenue company that it is because of this because they offer the ability for Cheap targeted advertising on a level that nobody else really can Well, and now that a lot of how this all works behind the scenes is coming to light and people are more interested in more You know potentially upset about it worried anyway What would be the appropriate disclosure for something like the guardians website to tell tom merit? Here's everything that's happening behind the scenes. You don't have to go like find the self for yourself You know in a way that you would disclose, you know, if you I don't know Had invested in a certain stock or whatever what, you know, how how would A news organization whatever it may be be able to explain this If they indeed needed to use this for their bottom line Yeah, I mean We have we have one answer which is everyone's making facebook Or not making them, but they're they they are advising facebook You need to tell us what you're collecting give us controls over that Uh, and and when they did that and I know a lot of this was rooted in the cambridge analytical story But it has moved on from that to what does facebook know about you? And they're putting front and center when you log into facebook. Okay, here's everything we have we've simplified the controls You would you expect news sites to do that or would it be better to say hey, we work with this ad company Yeah If you want to know what that ad company collects about you Click this link takes you over to that ad company google double click hot forage, whatever And they will have a privacy policy But none of those ad companies because they're not also social networks are getting that pressure They're also not as big as facebook either Well, I mean but this would be going to google, right? Well, it would be going to google would be the next biggest one, but there's plenty of them Well, sure But so many of i mean google is because of their ownership of double click is probably the 800 pound gorilla that you could force to answer questions Uh, and and we'll have any kind of social responsibility To do it other than that if you're any of these other companies that have a lower profile But but are just serving these ads because they've compiled the kind of tracking data that they need to do a target Effectively sure look we can all do the run around and introduce ourselves to the CEOs of all of these companies but I doubt Unless there is a tremendous change in how much we care about where our data is going that Anything will be substantially different So you don't think any of these data tracking companies face any sort of pr nightmare associated with people knowing more about how this all works Absolutely not because at the end of the day they could just refold and do the exact same thing under a new company And nobody would care or at least nobody has cared like unless you are really into this world Even carrying you still have to go an extra step and like follow. You know, it's a company changed his name like Just the fact that you care it doesn't mean that they are not Under some there's an evolution in the attitudes here, right facebook Nobody used to care that facebook was sharing your name and stuff They're like whatever they don't it's not like that my social security number now It's what they shared my name and and and the fact that I I like a certain thing And that has changed because of the effects of targeting on things like elections now Local blocks is not a household name It's certainly not as big as google, but they know a lot about everyone and they sell it For use in sales force For use on mobile ad networks and lead generation for customer retention And I don't think a lot of people realize that you don't think that that could eventually blow up in somebody's face And suddenly everyone's storming their local government saying why are these people doing this? I mean we have the gdpr in europe Based on lesser fears than this So everybody understands that we now care about where our data is going Thanks to facebook and the camrigan elitica scandal. What my point presupposes is Maybe they don't They really care about the 2016 election and any kind of tendril that Extends from it I have yet in all of this sermon drawing with facebook Have yet to really see anything that extends I mean the tech press for sure But then again privacy in the tech press has been a thing for for years now But in the mainstream I have not seen any kind of meaningful change that I think would lead to any kind of Meaningful reform and by that I mean Disclosures and controls that are easy to use in front and center from Either facebook or google or any of these companies as lesser players But don't you think the 2016 election and the Well, uh the potential um ramifications of all of this has changed the game We don't just go back to like oh no, they just take our data and no one cares anymore There was just that one election that will keep happening unless things change I think that It's if it's effectively used as a boogeyman Then it will and if it's not then it won't because again I don't think we care about this and by we I mean the mainstream not necessarily everybody's listening to this Of course every year listens and cares, but What I I genuinely believe that they're yeah, we will go back to bed on this Because this is about the fact that a a gigantic upset happened and uh, uh, that is a tremendously, uh A huge thing because of who was yeah, because if Cambridge Analytica is local blocks or hot jar and only selling your data to advertisers and salespeople And crm programs and not involved in politics Then Cambridge Analytica is not a scandal. It's not a big scandal. That's kind of what you're saying Yes, absolutely. Yeah Um, well folks, uh, what do you think? Let us know, uh, you can you can participate in our subreddit There's some good conversations going on over there these days You could submit stories of vote on them there as well at daily tech news show dot reddit dot com And there's lots of great conversations happening on our facebook group facebook.com slash groups slash daily tech news show Let's check the mail bag. What are they saying to us right this second? Alison Sheridan who everyone knows as a regular contributor to dtns My friend and yours says roger got a question for you Would you like to come over to my house and listen to some hits from the 1800s? Now if you didn't listen to the show yesterday, you might say what in the heck is going on We were talking about the idea of digitizing old content So a lot of us have that we don't want it to go away. We don't want it to degrade But we're not exactly sure what our options are Alison says I'd love it if you could give a shout out to your audience asking if anyone knows how I can listen to this old stuff Get them digitized.

Yeah Said you're already looking That's crazy I'm gonna guess they might be expensive, but Um, Justin, how old is mr. Bird sir bird? Dr. Bird dr. Bird use his appropriate title. He is a doctor PhD bird is Five years old Okay, so dr. Bird isn't that old. He's a little baby A little baby, you know a little five-year-old bird. Oh, he's just he's uh, he's the young one We the other two we got our rescues. So they are of indeterminate age. We can only really take a guess That's too old. Uh, yeah, you know because with like cats and dogs they look at teeth But with birds you really can't tell and to be honest, uh, it's also kind of a crapshoe with birds In terms of sexing them like you can't really tell whether it's a boy or a girl unless you draw blood Or like the markings are just like super obvious Depending on the breed. Yeah, which is not always the case uh Well, you know And then you know the next question is like does it really matter If your bird is a boy or a girl Oh, it matters if you have both a boy and a girl then you very quickly have more boys or girls Uh, well, okay. It matters in a breeding sense, but otherwise, you know The bird is loved either way. Oh, of course, certainly so You just you'd normally have to uh You gotta you gotta now. I wonder if squeakers my old cockatiel was a boy or a girl I mean, we thought it was a boy, but that's just what someone told us. What should we call this show by the way, uh Bird watch bird bird man Ads on tracking crack facebook knows when you've been naughty or nice Well, hold on. I which one of those is it? What's the is that one title or two two? Which one do you like? Well, it's kind of hard, but uh, I really like artisanal Making Huh artisanal chip making is really funny. I'm good with that artisanal chip making I can do that Sure Yeah Sounds good. Can I uh take over the post? Yes Okay, also at ai chips b is a funny call back to our uh movie draft I see you chip Chips b chips Female dog How does roger do it? I don't know. I have a head cold Oh, i'm sorry, man I got it for my kid It happened overnight. Oh do Very fast So back to sexing the birds All right. You want to giggle about a term? That's fine Yeah, you and your middle school humor Right tom grow up so soft morick Maybe that should be our next challenge. Yeah tom will grow up a little grow up If we get to one may patron more than last month, I'll grow up a little It's perfect No, I I love I love a sweet little bird. They're very smart. They've got little personalities You know kind of jerks sometimes dinosaurs. They're they're dinosaurs No, dr bird, uh, we Joke and you have really just made a mistake by letting giving me an opportunity to just talk about the bird for This post shows for the birds, uh Dr. Bird finds what people don't love them Uh, cave caves of wonders. He likes Very dark little Uh, he likes to burrow he likes to burrow underneath pillows and underneath blankets And then you'll just hear him Go like make these little bird squeaks. That's so cute It's adorable and then he'll get so embarrassed if you call his name He'll come scurrying out of his little cave and and go. Oh, wow Was it me? Yeah, I didn't do it We had um our our old Cockatiel squeakers Had his own language, you know, he'd listen to the television and so we called it urney bird Which doesn't doesn't mean anything but you know, he'd be like You know and so he'd kind of just be off in the corner kind of talking to himself when he was in a good mood But he was he was mimicking human voices. He just none of it made any sense He wasn't actually saying the right words And then he also liked very specific things. He liked pasta He liked sponges. Uh-huh and he liked paper towels Oh, yeah, he didn't really like anything else But when you like you'd show him a sponge, he'd be like, uh, you know and his wings would go up and he'd be like I'm so happy You know and it was just the weirdest most adorable thing in the world Uh Dr. Bird has expensive tastes. Oh And loves Givenchy, perhaps. Uh, no headphones Literally got it beats by jay not good enough for dr. Bird. No, uh, no beats by jay is uh Yeah, you know, it's it's bird finances.

He's destroyed like at least three Uh, uh headphones that we've had and that's why ashley went i've got him getting the airpods Because they're parrot proof like that. He can't it's it's solid enough plastic that there's no Soft cord that he can chew through I see I see Sammy are you hearing this so for him it's soft cord porn Hmm, I mean jeet tom I'm just there's a genre for everyone Okay, that's the beauty of the internet Yeah, so I love that. It's like it's not that he likes sound quality or you know over the ear headphones are very comfortable for his little bird head He's like I want to destroy the most expensive thing you have in this office 150 percent That is what he likes to do and he's he's malicious about it. I like it. I like it. That's a smart bird. Yeah Good leverage Uh, but yeah, no other other than what else does he love he loves, uh I mean millet millets his favorite Uh, and and our other two birds stick together because he's he's a bit of a bully If he's if it was just him and the other one and cooper for a while He would bully the older bird cooper But then we got milo and now milo and cooper stick together And uh, they're able to muscle out mean mister doctor Do they make fun of him for being non-rescue? I don't know. I mean your life of privilege doctor bird The tables are turning. It was actually a really good, uh, because they're they're flock animals, obviously And and uh, when doctor was a little baby and he was the only one that we had He would get very scared when we would both And he would just we would joke that because he would just start yelling Uh, that he was just like i'm abandoned. I'm abandoned. If you can hear the sound of my voice. I've been left behind Now it are everyone's wings clipped. They can't just like fly into the room after you Oh, no, we don't we don't we don't play like that. They are they are full flighted birds. So yeah over the play So it's just more of like a It's a a petulant child. Yes. Yeah, and so not mister mister their birds. Yeah There are times where he does not want to go back in the cage and you just got to kind of Wait a minute. Yeah, we'll fly around the room and in my mind He thinks that he's pulling the greatest escape of all time. We'll never catch me now I'm gonna go left left then right then left Oops. I'm still in the same room I'm free It's funny, but you know, I grew up in the country and we always had dogs and cats and you know for a while the bird Uh, which was I don't think anybody in my house wanted the bird But I really did and so squeakers was with us for some time Um, and he was adorable and I think everyone sort of love hated him because he was he was he was He was a difficult bird But he had his cute moments like when you show him the sponge, you know, we were like, I love you eat a little jerk however I don't remember now how we navigated like having a dog and three cats and squeakers Who would also fly to his, you know, he had his like little spot in the kitchen he'd like to you know Be on top of his own cage and there are a couple other places that he really liked but like We never had an issue with like one of the cats trying to eat him That never happened. Yeah, but like now I'm like, how do we even do that? That's crazy You know because our house was just full of it was like a you know, a menagerie But I guess I don't know. I don't remember anymore Uh with birds is it's not necessarily that uh, you know a cat would want to eat him or a dog would want to eat Um, it's more of a danger to the bird. That was the reason why we got cooper or the The the uh, the owners gave up cooper was because he had kind of imprinted himself and and dog The dog had a fondness for the bird a dog playing around can kill Yeah, doesn't right. So it's not necessarily malicious, but it's just yeah And also like nine times out of ten. Well, and you know, that would have played into it, too It's like even if my cats weren't trying to kill the bird It's like how did we how were we all co-existing in that living room? Yeah I really don't remember the grand station. That's a lot I'm imagining sarah's childhood home as being dr. Doolittle's house now. Well, it wasn't far off tell you was We're a lot of animals What do you think sammy? He's like i'm just gonna sleep through this I'll make it through somehow Well, folks, uh, I guess we can end the stream there Thank you all.
