 I'm like 50% lucid, but not quite. Mine is usually not math class. It's usually like two classes in my schedule that I just stopped showing up for. And often it is a class that I did that in college. I ended up dropping it, but I like stopped showing up and then just dropped it because I couldn't fit it in my schedule anymore. I'm trying to, it was a media communications class, like on the history of communications or something. And it was taught by a professor named Merit. A class with Merit. Did you do the secret handshake that got you the? No, I introduced myself the first day of classes. Oh, my name is Merit too. And he was like, okay, is there something else you need? And I'm like, man, you Merits are jerks. Maybe he could ask us like, oh no. All right, so folks who are watching the video, Rich Trafalino is here to keep an eye on the possibly non-existent Microsoft announcement. We actually have some news, Tom. Oh, good. Okay, good. Hold it for the show. We'll get to it in a few minutes. It looks like Surface Pro 6. Is that what you're saying? Way to steal my thunder, Tom. All right, all right, all right, all right. But no, the real thunder is pre-show. What are you wearing? This is something that accentuates the lack of definition in my arms. It's called a Zozo suit. And what this is, is basically it's a motion capture suit. If you see here, oh wait, the camera's up here. It has individual markings kind of to let, give reference points on balls with dots on them. Yeah. Yes. And so you set up a camera on a little stand and then you turn around, it takes pictures of you in a 360 fashion. You can see here, it even has sweet cuffs from my hands. It makes me look like a mutant or something like that. And so yeah. This is like a full, like a onesie. This is a shirt with accompanying pants that are just as form-fitting, so I kept my jeans on. Which made you feel really great when you're taking those pictures. And this is a beta, they sent this to me. I mean, they were doing it for like 10,000 people or something like that. And it's either a beta test to get you to get 3D measurements and all that good stuff. Or it's a hideous prank that will see me featured. I've already said this to the GDI audience, but it's a horrible prank and I will look like a fool, but at least I'm getting out in front of it. So yeah, but this is, it's a little muck. So an audio listeners imagine, Rich will be wearing that through this entire show. And oh, does not breathe. Do you have to return it? They didn't say so and judging by how quickly you sweat in it, I hope they don't. It did come with washing in directions which I don't know who's wearing this more than once. But the real question is, do you think someone wore it before you did? I really hope so because I'd like to feel closer to people, Patrick. Well, I was like, Patrick, you bring up a very interesting point. I wash all my clothes I buy before I wear them. Like just in case. Minute to show time. This had a really great chemicals smell when I took it out of the bag. So I knew it was safe and put it on right away. Wait, does it smell like the bowling shoes you get? You ran at the bowling alley? That kind of? No, it smelled like the plastic that's described in the Kurt Vonnegut book, Breakfast of Champions. 45 seconds. Wheaties. Indeed. And Sarah, could you read the opening line today? Sure could. Will you? I will. Not falling for that. I can and I will. 30 seconds. Roger, I don't always buy them. It's true. Sometimes I want to wear them so badly. I had always washed them before I wear them now after I saw that house episode where the guy got poisoned by his jeans. Oh, great. 15 seconds. I'm missing out on good TV, apparently. This was like 15 years ago. 10 seconds, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four. Lift off. Microsoft Rocket. Thanks to everyone who supports Daily Tech News Show directly to find out more head to dailytechnewshow.com slash supports. This is the Daily Tech News for Tuesday, October 2, 2018 in Los Angeles. I'm Tom Merritt. And from Studio Fila and I'm Scooter Lane. And I'm Patrick Beja. I'm tired. Oh, Patrick. Is it dad stuff? Because I think that's why our next person... Yeah, it kind of is dad stuff. I, too, am tired, but I come from the fringes of the L.A. Empire. And you are? Oh, that's right. My name, Roger. My name is Roger. That's how you really know someone's tired. They're like, who? I don't know. He's trying to one-up you. Somebody. It's the battle of the dads. We got three dads on the show today. Microsoft's in the middle of announcing things. So Rich Strafolito has agreed to keep an eye on the Microsoft announcements and surface every once in a while to tell us what they're announcing. Thank you, Rich. No problem, Tom. Rich, we have something we'll be talking about in a couple of minutes, right? They can take them like 25 minutes, actually. They have to announce something, Tom. All right, good, good. We'll get to the first round of Microsoft stuff in a minute, but let's start with a few other tech things you should know. Tencent Music Entertainment Group formally filed an IPO in the United States under the symbol TME in what could be the biggest US IPO by a Chinese company ever to date. In a filing with the SEC, Tencent Music reported a profit of $263 million on revenue of $1.3 billion for the last six months, ending June 30th. Ever sounded really exciting, and then to date kind of brought it down a little bit. I'm disappointed. Well, I mean, I was going to do that. No, it's true. Apple is now integrating university student ID cards into its wallet, the company's contactless payment system on the Apple Watch and the iPhone. The first schools to come online are Duke University, the University of Alabama, and the University of Oklahoma. Apple first announced the integration back in June at WWDC. In response to a surprise complaint by engineer Eric Swildens, the US Patent and Trade Office has rejected almost all 56 claims, basically 53 claims, all but three, in Waymo's patent suit against Uber. The USPTO found that some claims replicated technology described in an earlier patent from Lidar vendor Velodyne, while another claim was simply impossible and quote, unquote, magic. Swildens, who doesn't work for any of the companies in question, says he became interested in the Lidar patents when it surfaced during the Uber case and he saw how simple Waymo's Lidar circuit seemed to be. All that was needed was just someone to complain. If only- Can you believe in magic? No, Eric Swildens did not, and so he complained. If you don't live in Japan, or even if you do, you may not have realized that GeoCities continued as part of Yahoo Japan long after it shut down for the rest of the world. That ends this March as Yahoo Japan. Yeah, I know, I'm sorry. It's kind of like the ever end to date thing. It's disappointing. That ends this March as Yahoo Japan announced it will shut down the service after 22 years. I'm sad that I'm just learning that GeoCities was still available. I could have walked down- That's amazing. Athens neighborhood one last time. Well, I guess I have till March. I can try to do that, yeah. Will you? I might. Oh, okay. Don't challenge me, Patrick, I'll do it. It wasn't a challenge, so it wasn't. All right, let's check in with Rich Strafolino and find out what Microsoft has announced so far in their ongoing announcement as we record this. Looks like we have a couple of things now, Rich. Yeah, the big news right now is the announced Surface Pro 6. This will come with eight generation Intel CPUs. That means quad core, more than likely, a 12.3 inch display up to one terabyte of SSC storage, 13.5 hour battery life, weighs 1.7 pounds, a redesigned thermal system, and notably available in Jet Black. So the rumors there are the leak we saw of Microsoft putting out black colored devices is true. I didn't get that excited about that leak. I'm like, okay. And the other thing that I'd seen speculated is that we weren't gonna get a big design change. These were just gonna be pretty much spec bumps for what is at the current moment a successful line for Microsoft and that looks like what we've got. Absolutely, Tim. Price starts at $899, goes on sale October 16th. Now it looks like there's also a Surface laptop. What do we know? Do we know anything yet about that? I have not seen any details about that because the verge live feed is not updating presently. Oh, I'm finding something on TechCrunch about it. Now you might wanna just look over at the articles as they get posted. I will jump on. Yeah, it looks like we've got a Surface laptop too coming out. So we'll let Rich look and dig into that and we'll move along and talk about some other things but we'll keep checking in with Rich to find out a little bit more about the other Surface devices as they surface. Patrick, let's talk a little bit more about Chrome. Well, Google announced a partnership with Ubisoft to bring the upcoming Assassin's Creed Odyssey to its Chrome browser for a limited number of users. The same day the game comes out on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The test is called Project Stream and is geared towards participants with a home internet connection of at least 25 megabits per second. Ubisoft is also experimenting with bringing the game to the Nintendo Switch in Japan via cloud servers. So video game streaming is everywhere. Yeah, no, this is very cool. I like what they're doing here which is we're gonna demonstrate our technology for game streaming with a big name title. At release date, that makes a big splash and the way I guess they were able to convince Ubisoft to do this is to say, we'll limit the number of participants. We're not gonna try to undermine your whole market here right out of the gate. It'll just be a beta test. So you're gonna have a bunch of people scrambling to get these invites to try this out. How successful do you expect it to be, Patrick? It, I think the big challenge now, I mean, video game streaming services as we've talked about them many times on the show, they've been around for a while. The big challenge now is to try and reduce latency which they kind of address in the announcement about this project. And we've known they've been working on it for a while but they note that streaming video, as we know, is relatively easy because as long as you can buffer a couple of seconds or even a little bit more than your internet's connection, how do you say it? Basically losing quality is not going to be a problem. In games, of course, you need to have good reliable instant latency. So if they manage to address that problem, then I think it could be very successful. And the really interesting thing is that they're not just launching a console or anything like that. You already have everything you need to play it. Basically just Chrome. That's the biggest part of this announcement for me. 25 megabits per second doesn't seem like that's that fast. I mean, I know not everybody has access to that everywhere but that is somewhat at the lower end of broadband these days or at least more frequently it can be. You're seeing cable companies come out with 300, 400 megabits per second. You're seeing fiber in more places. So it does seem like this is fairly on the wider and more people will be able to handle this than not. Yeah, 25 megabits is definitely enough to stream some HD content, that's for sure. The big issue as I was mentioning is going to be latency. If you have an older type of connection, it might not be as fast as a fiber connection. Well, because I have two connections there. I have a business line that's 400 megabits per second for this stream. And then I have a home line which is fused DSL for 50 megabits per second. I wonder what the latency on that is. I know I've done a speed test but I don't remember now because I wasn't paying attention to it that closely on the day of install. I just wanted to make sure I was getting close to what I paid for download wise. So those fused lines might have latency issues that other lines wouldn't. I mean, to be honest, if you have a decent latency even if it's around 50 or 100 for a game like that which is solo, it's still gonna be playable. The real trouble happens when you wanna play multiplayer games. All right, question for everybody. When is the last time you swatted someone? Oh, please no. You mean flies or people? Cause there's a whole big different there. Swatting is a term at least in this story meaning calling the police with a fake threat to get the SWAT team to respond to an unsuspecting target, it's not a nice thing to do. This often happens to video streamers so that the people who are being the perpetrators can watch the results in real time live on the video stream. This actually happens. The Seattle police department now says anybody worried about swatting happening to them can create a profile on a data management service called Rave Facility run by smart 911 and add a swatting concern tab to their profile. If you're worried about it, yeah add it to your profile and it'll let 911 operators share that information with emergency responders. Yeah, this is serious stuff. I mean, there are some people who've had their lives put in danger because somebody wanted to prank them. Some people have died. It is incredibly dangerous. Obviously the authorities respond thinking that there's someone holding people at gunpoint in a house and it's happened that they would actually come in and think something was happening and shot. And we didn't quite know how to address it. So this is a very simple and hopefully very effective way of addressing this. If you get swatted or if you think you might get swatted you register and when someone gets a call saying, hey, there's a hostage situation happening in this house. When they see this house is actually the home of a streamer that has registered, they're gonna probably think twice about how to enter that situation. Well, yeah, Seattle PD made a point of saying this is not going to reduce our response time. This is not going to cause us to not respond. What it is is more information for the respondents to know going in so that they can assess the situation and kind of look for signs. If you know you're going to the home of someone who does streaming, you're gonna have a different mindset coming up to the door than you would otherwise. And part of it is also police procedure. I mean, I think the Seattle PD is actually being very proactive here. There was a case in Wichita a couple of years ago where a guy was literally shot on his French porch. And unfortunately he died when he was swatted and the local SWAT team came and unfortunately they shot him. But it's one of those things that this is one of those things where policies and procedures definitely need to change, regardless of what the situation, you cannot assume that what you think you hear is exactly what they're gonna, what's happening. And it's unfortunate that we've come to this point where something that's ostensibly should be fun to do watching someone play a video game now is involved in a very illegal, I mean, calling in a false crime is a felony in most jurisdictions. So I mean, it's not a joke. And it's unfortunate that we have to do this, but I think I applaud the Seattle PD for taking these steps. All right, let's switch to something if not happier, at least not involving death. Let's talk to Rich Drafilino about what's happening at the Microsoft announcement. What have they announced since we last spoke? All right, Tom, so as you alluded to, they announced the Surface Laptop 2, which starts at either $899 or $999 according to CNET, has a 14.5 hour battery life, same design, but comes in that classy map lack, 8th Gen Intel CPUs, Instant On and Windows Hello support and ships October 16th, perhaps most notably. There's also more details about the Windows 10 October 2018 update. Auto updates will be available starting October 9th and will support text from, sending a text from a PC using either an Android or iOS device, a shared clipboard between PCs and a dark theme in the file explorer. CNET also reported that there is a picture of an updated, what appears to be, an updated Surface Studio in an official photo on Twitter, no one details as of yet. Okay, so Roger, you were saying you wanted a Windows news out of this before the show. So we got the auto update of Windows coming October 9th and usually what happens with that is if you want it, and before October 9th, you can force the update. So I'm assuming that's the case this time as well. Anybody excited about these two Surface? I mean, 85% faster on the laptop too, some nice spec bumps on the Surface Pro 6, but. Well, and it's, I think, oh, sorry, Rich. Well, for me, the big news is quad core now across the Surface Pro and the Surface Laptop. I think there was a big deficiency when you were looking at other laptops that were adopting the Intel 8th Gen. And I think it makes a big difference for making this, especially on a pro machine, something that's gonna be called a pro, having that really would come in handy for photo or video editing. Yeah. And both available in the color black. Matt Blackton. I'm sorry, Matt Black, sorry, Matt. All right, a couple of the things about from Facebook to talk about today, Facebook has followed YouTube and Twitch and letting video creators schedule pre-recorded video to stream at a certain time as if it was live. It's not just scheduling a post to go up, but you sort of make a big deal with a countdown, you can be in the chat room and everybody watches it at the same time as if it was streaming live, but it's pre-recorded. So Facebook's doing that now too. Twitch has done that for a long time. YouTube started doing it recently. Facebook calls their function premiers. Facebook is also rolling out a top fans badge to all pages with more than 10,000 followers. So your most loyal fans can have a top fan badge on all their posts. Facebook released some anti-bullying tools as well. Users can hide or delete multiple comments at a time. You can now delete your own comments and you can report bullying and harassment on behalf of other users. You can also appeal a decision to take down your comments for bullying if you feel that someone was actually harassing you by trying to get your comments taken down. And Facebook is testing the ability to search and block certain words from showing up in comments. So that feature has not yet launched yet. All this is good. The most interesting thing for me is that Facebook is not letting go or giving up on their video efforts. Obviously they wouldn't, but anecdotally, I haven't seen a huge pickup on them with the exception of a couple of dedicated people who might have been, I don't wanna say paid by Facebook, but certainly it looked like they were very enthusiastic about that platform when no one else was, but they're still going. And I guess as they should, because video seems like the one last part of the internet that they haven't completely dominated. So it's not that surprising. Yeah. Anything else on the Facebook stuff here before we move on? All right, let's talk about some opera. Guess we can talk about opera, which launched its opera touch browser to iOS after launching on Android back in April. It's optimized for one hand use, letting you open or close tabs, switch to search, go back or forward using a menu bar located at the bottom of the screen. This app, the app also includes opera's flow technology, which lets a user pass link images and notes from their phone to an opera browser on their computer using a secure and private connection. I actually tried this out earlier. It's great. I love it. I've always liked the opera browser, at least on the desktop. And having an option that's not Safari on iOS is, I appreciate that. And the one handed thing with this large phone that I have is not really happening. However, I like the UI in general and I like the opera team. So that's the big question about any browser that opera ever puts out. Everyone likes them. Everyone agrees they are really innovative and interesting. Yeah. And then no one uses them. And I say no one, I understand some people. Not a lord at all. I think a fair amount of people use the opera browser at least on OS X. Okay. Will you? I do. Okay. Excellent. I mean, it's at least one of the browsers that I use in general. On a regular basis. Yeah, like open up properly. It's definitely in my rotation. Cool. Excellent. I'm happy for opera. You can't reset your default like you can on macOS. So on macOS, I use Chrome because my default browser can be Chrome. On iOS, I use Safari because I can't change the default. So even if I wanted to use opera or Chrome or Firefox focus or something else, I forget to launch it and I have to launch it intentionally. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I feel like I'm not launching a browser from what you're describing from within some other app or a link all that often. I mean, Chrome is down in my main apps down on the bottom next to messages and my phone and this Chrome. So yeah, that doesn't happen that often, but you're right. I guess that is a shortcoming. Well, let's find something that's not a shortcoming. That's actually an increase. In fact, it is. Amazon announced it's raising its minimum wage for US employees. That's more than 250,000 Amazon employees. That includes part-time and temporary employees as well as another 100,000 seasonal employees to $15. $15 effective next month. The company said it will also start advocating for an increase to the federal minimum wage. The company's also raising wages for its British employees to a minimum of 10, 50 pounds sterling for workers in London and 950 in the rest of the country in England. Target announced in its holiday hiring release it would raise the minimum hourly wage to $15 by 2020 and Walmart announced plans in January to raise its minimum wage to $11. Okay, so this is somewhat of a financial labor market story than a tech story, but with Amazon getting so much heat here in the US, Senator Bernie Sanders had called them out for labor practices and was advocating for legislation to be passed, targeting Amazon. It is interesting to note that there is low unemployment in the US, some of the lowest since the economic recovery began back in 2008 and it is a tight labor market. So you have to pay people more to get them in a low unemployment market. So here we have an excellent opportunity for a huge positive press release for Amazon to say, well, in order to be competitive and make sure Walmart and Target don't get the employees that we want, let's pay them more and make a big deal about how we're raising our minimum wage. It's not a minimum wage. It's the lowest amount Amazon will pay people. It's minimum wages. I reserve that term for a legal concept where the law says you can't pay people below that. Anyway, I think this is an excellent press opportunity for Amazon. So you think it is a recruitment issue that they were having or were thinking they might have in the future more than a reaction to the avalanche of negative press they've been getting in the past few months. I don't think it has to be one or the other, but I think they kind of had to raise their amount anyway and saw it as a way to kill two birds with one stone. Interesting. Yeah, it's, I mean, it's definitely a good thing, especially this might get people to forget a little bit about the potentially damning evidence about their issues with unions or not their issues. Right, right. Whole Foods particularly has battled against unions long before Amazon bought it. And now Amazon and Whole Foods teaming together are fighting against unions together, for sure. And so this is only positive, I guess, mostly for the actual workers who were, by all accounts, having pretty horrendous working additions, at least now they'll be paid a little bit better. Just, I'll just note, these issues are very public in Europe, at least in France as well. And Amazon is under fire constantly for their working conditions. We do have minimum wage here, so maybe that's less of an issue, but the working conditions are being scrutinized very heavily. Yeah, a couple of things. First of all, you keep saying working conditions and nothing has changed in the working conditions with this announcement. Yeah, that's why I was saying at least they'll be paid more now. And we have a minimum wage in the United States as well. You made it sound like you have one in France and we don't, we do. Yeah, we look at it and we think you have a lot of very little unemployment, but a lot of working pores, which that's more... That's a whole separate issue about whether there is, in fact, a minimum wage or not, though. Those are two separate issues. I guess, yeah, anyway, very low minimum wage. Maybe you think our minimum wage isn't large enough. That's a different... That's it, yeah. But another question, though, how much were they paid before? What was the Amazon minimum wage before? I don't think they mentioned... The lowest that people were paid, I thought I saw it somewhere as something like 12 an hour. I think that's right. That's a substantial raise. Yeah. Folks, if you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes, be sure to subscribe to dailytechheadlines.com and let's check in with Rich Stratholino. Do we have any more announcements coming out of Microsoft? That's right, Tom. We have one announcement coming out in regards to Windows 10, so Roger should be extra happy to hear. Coming out with the October update will be the ability to mirror any Android app directly to Windows 10. Microsoft's calling it creatively App Mirroring. Look, the folks at Daily Tech News Show are not going to criticize Microsoft for naming their app mirroring thing App Mirroring, but yeah, that's cool. So that's not part of the Your Phone app. It sounds like it's a separate thing, but it's along those same lines of being able to take something on your phone and do it on Windows 10, which is pretty cool. And possibly a move to combat Chrome OS kind of doing the same thing, not mirroring, but being able to run Android apps natively. Yeah, yeah, and Android apps run great on Chrome OS. I use that quite a bit. Well, thanks to everybody who participates in our subreddit, Windows News, and all sorts of other news. You help us make our show better. Thank you.

Okay, we got Chris Christensen back addressing the difference between American travelers and their European counterparts. Patrick, I know you're gonna like this. This is Chris Christensen from Amateur Traveler with another Tech in Travel Minute. This story is not necessarily as travel related, but I did see it in my travel news feeds. There's a study that came out about the difference between different countries and how they deal with issues like sharing data and who is persuasive to them. And two stats that I thought were interesting is in the US, 53% of adults are more than willing to share their personal data with a company that personalizes its product services. But as you go to the UK, Germany and France, that goes down to 43%, 39% and 36%. So Americans are much more willing to share their personal data. And then the other stat that was interesting is who do they find persuasive, whether they find digital resources more persuasive than their significant other. And with those four countries, again, only France found their significant other to be more persuasive, 55%. But in the US, UK and Germany, we find digital resources more persuasive, 64%, 61% and 52%. Interesting stats. I'm Chris Christensen from Amateur Traveler. You know, that's interesting, Patrick. What do you think of this? So when we say persuasive is persuading you to travel or getting information on the location you're going to, or I guess it's a little bit of all of you are. It's sort of like my wife said we should stay at this on-send, but TripAdvisor recommended a different one. So we're picking the TripAdvisor one. Please note, I am French. I would like to think- What, you're French? Yeah, I know, it's surprising. I would like to think that this is because we have healthier partnerships in France. And so we listen to each other more and understand each other more. And that's going to be my line then and damn it, I'm going to stick with it. Bams, fighting words. Or however you say that in French. Well, what other explanation would you have? I wonder. I don't know, but oh look, the Surface Studio 2 has been announced, Rich. Yes, that's right, Tom. And it comes with the same 28 inch screen, 22% brighter and with 28% better contrast. It has pen input with 4,096 levels of pressure and improved ink latency. And hey, it comes with Pascal graphics that are 50% faster, which means it's probably still a mobile chip and two terabytes of up to solid state storage. You know, I wish Microsoft would announce their actual products the way you are announcing them for them. What can I say? Have you considered being an auctioneer? I would love nothing more, Sarah. So again, kind of a, it's an update and it's a decent update, but now we're seeing why they didn't want to stream this because it doesn't sound like anything is too crazy here. It's, they could have done all this in a press release, I feel like. I was initially thinking maybe they should have said initially that they weren't going to stream it, but they would have gotten the hype would have completely died down. And now they're still getting everyone who prepared for the live streaming, getting all of that, you know, reported with their live logs and all of that. And so they're getting a lot of press. It's more savvy than I would have initially thought, I guess. All right. Well, folks, we will get back to reading your emails in the mailbag tomorrow, but thank you for all of the great ideas after our quarterly hangout. We're going to have to go through and list them all out. Even if there's not stuff we can use as a milestone, they're just great ideas for segments, for specials that we want to do in there. So please keep the good ideas coming feedback at DailyTechNewShow.com. Thanks to Patrick Beja for being with us this fine Tuesday. Patrick, how is everything going since we saw you last? Well, it's going pretty well. I'm a little bit tired. My son is obviously being a baby, which he is. But other than that, I'm fine. Thank you for asking, Sarah. It's so kind. Well, of course. And let folks know how they can keep up with the rest of your work. Oh, right. Yes. I get it. Right. I do care. I care how you're doing, but I also want you to... So if you enjoy video games, I would suggest that you go check out Pixels. It's my gaming show, which we do every couple of weeks. And the latest episode is about many things. But one of the things we talk about is Destiny 2, the latest expansion. I had given up on that game, and the latest expansion is pretty good. If you want to learn why, just listen to the show. Thank you, Rich Strafilino. Of course, you'll hear Rich every once in a while. I'm Rich Strafilino and for Sarah and myself on Daily Tech Headlines.

So one thing I was worried about with having to do the show while the announcement was going was are we going to not give it the attention it deserves? And after having seen what they announced, I think it was just the right amount. Unless now that we're done with the show, they announced some kind of flying cyborg robot that can... We'll cover that on a tomorrow's show then. Oh, well, I guess that's right. Just to update all of the good day internet listeners on the score here. So Tom had expected to see a dual screen device, not something he'd expect. I don't think he expected it. Oh, he was excited for it. I would have been excited, yeah. With a clamshell with two screens, so Tom is not excited. Patrick would have been excited to see a new version of the hollow lens, something that makes a little bit more sense. So Patrick is not excited. Also expected moon traveling rocket service, sadly not present either. Sarah would like them to announce something like the tragic Mac pad. Sadly, no update on that as far as we have seen. Although maybe there was something in the Surface Studio announcements that we haven't quite seen. And Roger, optimist as always, wanted to see a smart pen or spend, if you will, sadly not present at the announcement. Wait, is the announcement, is the conference over? No, well, I should say as of show time, those have not been debuted. I did casually mention that maybe there would be a Windows mention. Oh yeah, you did, you did. I think Roger should get credit. I'm hoping for Windows. And I'm the one that's like, yeah, they're not gonna do that. I think Rich was too busy putting on his fancy shirt. No, I was entirely wrong about that one. I really did not think they would do that. It is so hot. It is so, so hot right now. So Rich, this is the question I wanted to ask but before the show started. So, okay, you wear this so that your body measurements are as accurate as possible. Oh, this is the shirt with the, the not ping pong balls, but illustrations of ping pong balls. Yes. You're right. But what if you like just big clothes? So you can specify when you order your clothes whether you would like them in a fit fashion, perhaps in a straight fashion or perhaps a loose fashion. So the company still benefits from knowing your measurements even if you're like, okay, I want everything XXL. Right, because if they don't know what your size is, they don't know how to make it loose. They don't know what is big or small. You can make the pants sag just right. It's not about having fitted clothes. It's about the company knowing how any size. Yeah. If you're like, I want my clothes tight, like your Zosso shirt. Not this tight. Yeah. It's not a good situation. I would like my spank, spank measurement. So the company can give you whatever you want unless it's like physically the shirt will not fit you. It's too small. I mean, maybe they would still ship it to you if you were going to pay for it. Yeah. Yeah. Or if you wanted to hulk out perhaps also as well. That could be an option. You can have an option just to say at this size, you know, this item of clothing will be revealing. What would I actually like? And by revealing, we mean splitting your pants. In the app, it did actually give you like how many, like how many inches your shoulder between your shoulders and stuff like that. So if you, you know, if you wanted to, you could theoretically take that to get something tailored, assuming that it's in any way accurate and anything more than a profound invasion of my privacy. I don't know. And as a profoundly small person where things like a button-down shirt, the sleeves are always too long, the collar is always too big, you know, it's like, if there is a shirt that will fit me, that a company like this could send to me because they do exactly what my measurements are, I think that's cool. I would totally use that because one of the things I have is finding button-down shirts that fit my chest. But the problem is because of a pretty broad chest, it just assumes the rest of me is even wider. And so the shirt comes out looking somewhat billowy, actually more than somewhat very billowy. And so I would like something that is a little just cut straight instead of like in this kind of Moomoo-like fashion. All right, hold on. I have to hear the beginning of the show here. Oh, it's not gonna play back. All right, what should we call the show anyway? Surfaces, Surface. There's also Amazons, You Get a Raise Moment. Amazon Minimum Wage, no. Assassin's Chrome. I like that one, that's pretty cool. I like that one. Assassin's Chrome. Assassin's Chrome. I like it, Assassin's Chrome. There's also Kept in the LiDAR, but that might be trying a little bit too funny. What about, please note, I am French. Yeah, but somebody makes a text. Oh, I see, you were skipping that on purpose because I submitted it. Well, isn't that the whole point? Is that the viewers or the listeners? No, it's based on whatever the best title is. It doesn't matter who submits it. I will submit that what matters is the sleep tired, so I'm gonna go to sleep. All right, Assassin's Chrome, it is. I thank you all very much for your companionship and support. I am French, and I'm signing off. Have a good night. We wish you a pleasant, pleasant sleep, Patrick. Thank you very much, Scooter. Love you all. Bye. So, two S's in Assassin, right? Yes, there's four S's, four. It's A-S-S-I-S-S. Yeah, I-S-S-I-P-P-I. Right, I know. That's exactly how I was gonna end that, too. I was like, mm, I'm not spelling Mississippi right now. Is that right? I'm getting messed up here. All right. So, last major update that I'm seeing right now, slight correction, I guess, not really inaccurate, but, Tom, as you were saying, the Windows 10 October 2018 update is available today with the auto updates pushing out. Yeah, no, that's what you said. You said auto update October 9th, and then I threw in the like, usually that means you can get it, once they announce the auto update, you can force it to happen. So that just confirms what I was hoping would be true. So, good. Excellent. All right, well, I will have to depart as well. I have child care duties to attend to. Of course, of course. Please enjoy. Thank you for your help, Rich. Rich, that was great. Thank you very much. It was a lot of fun to do. And when my Zozo apparel comes in. Yes. We'll have to have you back. We'll have to have you back. No, yes. Absolutely, so, all right. We'll do a little fashion show. And Sarah, if you want to borrow the Zozo suit anytime, it's barely been worn. Wait a minute, are those Zozo suits? Now I know how comfortable it is for you. I can't wait. No, they have a small, medium, and large. So they give you some guidelines there as well. Yeah, if they have like an XXS, that would probably... Well, there's a lot of pressure, because when you first put it on, they're like, make sure that nothing is bunched up and, you know, and it's just very weird. It's like someone's giving you two specific directions when they're shooting. It's like, okay, you're in Germans. Okay, thank you. Yeah, so, okay. All right, take it easy everybody. Bye. I'm wearing rave wear. I mean, I love the idea of this. I just feel like I'm at the very end of one spectrum. So it's like, what's your smallest size? Because that's the one that I will get. And it might still be too big. Well, and they might be... I never really like wondering if I'm a medium. No. I guess what I was wondering is if they are going to, not tailor per se, but will they be able to adapt them to your specifications? To your point, whether it's form fitting, loose, whatever, will they be able to say, oh, we can actually, we have more options than small, medium and large. Because if that's the case, then it's always worth it. Yeah, so I guess, you know, if I was someone who was like, I want like real baggy pants. I got this whole thing going on, that's my thing. And they know what my dimensions are. They might be like, the medium is actually the pants that helps. Or they may have more than just small, medium and large is what I'm thinking. Right? Oh yeah, we've got loads of options. And maybe even easily on the fly, kind of adapt them to be exactly what you want. I don't know. Are you still doing that monthly clothing thing? I stopped it because I wanted to save money. I wanted to save money. Well, yeah. That's why I stopped mine as well. I didn't dislike what I was getting. And I was keeping a shirt probably, you know, once every two or three boxes, they come once a month. Yeah. But I was also like, I don't really need this and I'm buying a house. So it was one of those expenses that got axed where I'm like, you know, I'm just going to cut that one out for a while. But I think I might do trunk club, which is significantly more expensive. But you don't have to keep it. It's more like Stitch Fix. Like they send you one and you don't have to have it sent constantly. They'll send you one, you try on the stuff and you only keep the stuff that you really want. Right. So I might do that again. I did Stitch Fix not that recently, maybe a couple of years ago. And I loved it. But at the same time, it was like, I kind of ended up keeping stuff. I didn't totally love because it was already in my house. It was in your house and it's like, oh, well, if I keep the whole box, I get a discount. Yeah, like maybe I should like, you know, think outside my fashion comfort zone. And, you know, so it was like, it ended up being an expense that, yes, we had to shelve. But it is fun, especially if you don't like shopping, which I do have much better clothing in my closet than I did before I did it. Because I had someone with style sending me things. Well, or just different style. Yeah, I'm trying to figure out like what what I could do to them. No, not at all. I haven't styled them. I'm trying to figure out what I could do to replace that without having to sign up for an ongoing dollars a month. Right. My problem is that, I mean, as I'm wearing a T-shirt of a cat as a police officer on the show, I feel like I have my own style. It works for me. But I don't know how to venture out of it. You know, it's like if I'm at a store and there's a striped T-shirt, I just want that shirt because I like stripes. So I have like 20 striped T-shirts and it kind of seems like I'm wearing the same shirt all the time because I just that's just my style. Like it's helpful for me to have somebody be like, try this on. Yeah. You're not going to buy this by yourself, but like it's going to fit you and it might be nice. And the thing I liked about Mr. Collection was they expected you to wear the clothes. It wasn't try it on. And if you want to keep it, you buy it. It was, no, you're renting these clothes. And if you want to keep it and buy it, that's fine too. But, you know, the expectation is you'll send it back to us. Right. Well, yeah. It'd be great if you could just like, you know how you have that this shirt fits great or these pants fit great. Now, if I could get this exact same thing in a different design or whatever, and that's what I really want is like, I really love the cut of the shirt. I wish they also had one that had like, you know, it wasn't check, maybe it was a solid color or I don't know, paisley or something, you know, something else that you could do with it. That isn't, you know, it's it would be customizable, but it would still be like, you know, I would assume Zoso would be able to do that because we were like, oh, we know exactly what fits you now. So you tell us, if you give us the feedback on the stuff that we send you that fits great, we can make sure to replicate that. Once they get the, once they figure out the foldable OLED, you know, like where you have a tablet that you can wear. Oh, yeah, that'd be great. Cause then your shirt can always change patterns or whatever. I go, I'm, you know, I think that's a whole different thing. I think it'll always be a place just like people still like analog records. There'll always be a place for clothing. An OLED shirt will be its own thing that would be cool, but it'll be like, oh, so you're wearing an OLED shirt. I don't think it replaces the ability to, I don't know, maybe I'm just being an old fogey there. I just feel like it'll always look like an OLED shirt, you know, there's something about texture to fabric that's hard to replicate. Yeah, yeah. So everything just looks like you're wearing polyester. What if you're doing OLED? I mean, like polyester was the miracle fabric for the 70s or 60s, 60s, 70s. It is, it is still a miracle. Except that it's... It's not very breathable. Not breathable when it burns. It depends on, yeah, it depends on what it is. I've definitely had some polyester stuff where I'm like, this isn't fun to wear. Well, I have some amazing stories about polyester, but you'll only get them if you're a patron listening to Good Day Internet. Thanks video folks for watching. We'll tell the audio folks more in a minute.
