 Up you idiot a Arnold Schwarzenegger theme metal band called Arno core All of their songs which are actually pretty good are inspired by Arnold Schwarzenegger movies Or as the lead singer says the Bavarian legends that inspired the tripe that came to Hollywood From the Bavarian folktales Including my favorite, which was the kindergarten cop song For which the who is your daddy? No, it was you lack discipline Because I think the best line from that movie is who is your daddy and what does he do? Well, that was a huge part of the breakdown. Yeah. Oh good. Okay. Okay. That's all that awesome Also, and it's it's it's the top line from the Arnold pranks outboard. Yes. Yeah It's not or it's not a tumor. Is that a song too? Yeah, it's got to be right. Yeah, but it's my movie. Oh All right. Okay Well, let's get the show on the road ready ready here we go Oh This is the Daily Tech news for Monday October 5th 2015 on Tom air We got a jam-packed show today Veronica Belmont in as she is most Mondays. How you doing Veronica? Excellent. How are you Tom? Excellent Justin Robert young also joining us today a surprise Monday appearance. How are you doing Justin? You know, it's a big big big news Monday. I'm here for you the public at large Creeping on my Monday Justin just saying I couldn't stay away because Veronica had the brilliant idea of inviting Eddie Caddell live-stream consultant drone hacker and film festival director to talk about the the drone film fest He's putting together Eddie. How's it going man? It's going fantastic for Monday for a Monday. Yeah for Monday. It's probably like crazy good because you know You're alive All right, well, we got some headlines to get to first let's start there It's good Monday for Jack Dorsey. It's official He is the CEO of Twitter losing the interim designation business insider reports The decision was made Wednesday according to a Twitter sec filing Adam Bain the former president of global revenue was promoted to COO while former CEO Dick Costolo leaves the board of directors Dorsey was Twitter's first CEO and will remain The current CEO of Square. Thanks to Skyboard 13 for posting this up on the subreddit Sometimes we know a story is going to be big But if you posted on the subreddit it helps us know just how many people are interested and maybe get some comments from folks Not a surprise. We kind of knew this was coming. I've been leaked out last week, but can Dorsey do it to companies and be More of a consistent product vision than some people think he was in the first round It seems to think that or people seem to think that Square is kind of it's running itself at this point Or there's some level of automation going on where he feels he can kind of let that happen and continue on the path That it's on the trajectory while he comes back to Twitter and really shakes things up a bit because that's the company I think that probably needs the most help right now Square is already in step three profit. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, basically Well, but also really this question is never whether Jack Dorsey can do it It is whether Jack Dorsey can put big strong leaders that are actually monitoring a lot more the day-to-day Below him in both companies. It seems like his focus is now Twitter Which you know a lot of the coverage on this makes a very very very good point Twitter although very influential for people like me and a lot of people who listen to shows like this has lagged behind and not kept up a growth pace and We could see one of the bigger stories of next year of the year after that be you know an upstart Social network like snapchat, which was once thought to be a curiosity passing the usage numbers of Twitter which we consider to be a bigger company so very interesting times for Jack How would you feel being an employee at a company knowing that your CEO is dividing his time? I Mean, I don't know ask SpaceX and Tesla. That's a very good example It's a very good example. That is a good example and at tech TV We didn't have a CEO for the last couple years, so I bet it feels the opposite of that Probably all right Well moving on adobe made a lot of announcements at its max conference and venture beat has a very good summary of them Among the highlights are a new iOS app out today called photoshop fixed for late editing and retouching also an iOS and Android Out app today called capture that collects functions from the brush hue color and shape apps a UX prototyping app called project Comet Behance Pro site gets renamed adobe portfolio artboard support for Photoshop and touchscreen support for InDesign and illustrator People seem to be receiving these changes positively And I think it shows that adobe a lot of people thought maybe adobe was would hit troubled waters Because flash is pretty much done and people thought man photoshop. It's too expensive. You can you can do more lightweight things How are they gonna make the transition to mobile? They've made it very well People seem to love these apps and they keep coming up with smart free versions versus paid versions versus subscription versions So it looks like adobe's just still hitting on all cylinders when it comes to their creative sweet anyway I also think that where apple went with the iPad Pro is betting on this idea that there is a whole new realm of creative professionals for whom want just a big larger canvas that are going to really really get usage out of You know a suite of apps that adobe has made their living building especially with the touchscreen support It's just it. Yeah, they're gonna they're gonna blow it out of the water for that Yeah, it's a really good point Android 6.0 aka Marshmallow is now available for the Nexus 5 6 7 9 and nexus player Again repeat nexus 5 6 7 9 and nexus player. All right Moving on you can now download the factory firmware images at developer google slash android slash nexus slash images Marshmallow provides improved battery life management new more efficient app permissions Handlings and the now on tap which pulls up relevant info based on whatever is on the screen The update also provides native fingerprint support for compatible devices like the upcoming nexus nexus 5x and 6t almost got to the end of that without screwing up. They need new versions I I Feel like OS Updates aren't as exciting and I'm not just talking about Android. I'm talking about iOS 2 like I don't I don't Like rush to update like I used to To get the new features and I think that's just because mobile OSes are fairly mature at this point. Well, yeah I mean, yeah, we're at a fairly stable point of for Android, you know, it's it's always also another level of whether or not you care based on what? Model you have and based on how much you're going to get out of the functionality depending on what phone is in your hand So it's very curious. Although everybody who has the pure Android installs that really really loves the OS I'm sure really thrilled to update it today I mean, I've got an access nine and I will update it before the end of the day And I you know, I'm looking forward to a few of the improvements. So but not an eight You tell you tell sat the French telecom company announced today That they will partner with Facebook to provide satellite internet connectivity to 14 countries in West East and Southern Africa The entire broadband payload of a space com Amos 6 satellite will be used once it's launched in the second half of 2016 Capacity will be shared between you tell sat and Facebook You tell sat is establishing a new company in London to steer its business in Africa while Facebook is likely to use their capacity for the free basics by Facebook Initiative from internet.org though no details about the connection have been announced I've poured over all of the announcements and the and the press release from you tell sat and they all mentioned Facebook's internet.org but none of them had a sentence that said this project will use Free basics for Facebook and I think that may be because of some of the controversy surrounding it regarding zero rating Etc. Yeah, the second I heard about this I'm like, oh, this has got to be through the the free basics by Facebook situation that just makes sense there They just want to blanket the world with Facebook And I think it's not necessarily a bad thing, especially if they're providing access to countries that have a harder time getting it And this is gonna be great, especially rural areas to have this kind of satellite Internet you tell sat will probably pick up a few customers That's the idea with free basics for Facebook is people start using the free stuff and then maybe they want more they go and they subscribe if they if they can afford it and You're you're going to see you know this working with off-the-shelf mobile technology, which is very popular in Africa, especially sub-Saharan Africa Definitely, this is good news for Justin Phillips announced a new version of its hue hub that supports Apple's home kit That means that Siri can turn your lights on and off while the hub still works with third-party systems like Nest and smart Things the new hue hub will be available October 6th for $60 and owners of the old hue hub can upgrade for $40. That's what you use, right? Oh Yeah, look at this. We're at the beach now. Oh, beautiful Oh, wait, some blue light nice. Here's one called Kathy for no reason How about the cartoon? Yeah, no, I love that the hue bulbs I use them for our studio here in Oakland and I'll be excited to use it. I really I don't know. I'll have to look you know more into it I don't know what the functionality really is Beyond, you know, super connectivity home automation nerds right now But hopefully integrating Siri makes the user interface a little bit more of a readily available tool for instead of inside the clap-on You can just hey Siri that instead, right? You don't have to it's a nice added feature And I'm glad that more more Home services are getting under home kit and working that way. It's nice to have everything under one banner So you can make sure that it's all usable and you don't have to have different systems in place So that's good for me as an iOS user, but it may not be for someone who's not necessarily on that platform well, and and that's the problem is that we're just going to have these Gigantic tents fight with each other until one of them just blankets the world which is really frustrating because you get the feeling right now That if there was an open standard, we could have the future could be today But it's not because everybody's competing with each other and trying to set up their own ecosystem So everybody buys, you know, the proverbial razors instead of you know, just going it and putting the best efforts of the consumer first Well, and that's why I'm hoping that maybe one Pathforward and I know that this is debated hotly amongst the folks who follow this Market really closely one path forward is you get more of these hubs that make Whatever protocol you happen to be using on a device irrelevant because the hub can can help everything I know there's a lot of people who are against hubs and just want things to connect directly That's what weave is about with nest So yeah, I mean there's a lot of paths forward. We just haven't figured them out all quite Yeah, we've got about six different home automation systems running in our house that don't connect or talk to each other at all And that's that's kind of a crappy way of going about it, but you know, we're not quite there yet And also chat room is upset because I just initiated everyone's clappers Sorry No, that one old lady in bed is so annoyed right now. I'll fix it clap off Okay, there you go all back to normal 3000 sent us a telegraph report that's starting in November the first self-driving Electric shuttles for use on public roads will take passengers between where do you In the Netherlands province of It's Gelderland you can get that one Well, here. No, all right, smarty pants and do you go ahead and pronounce wagon engine and eed in the Netherlands province of Gelderland He practiced that he practiced also probably not right. It's all in this. It's all in the confidence that you would you say it oh I didn't I didn't portray absolute confidence These amazing names The six-person we pod has the maximum speed of 25 kilometers per hour The vehicles will take passengers along a fixed route monitored from a control room and booked by an app During the test phase the we pods will not run during rush hour or in bad weather Other routes and regions in the Netherlands are expected to be added from May 2016 onward, you know There was a really interesting blog post on medium this week about the the secret messages in Elon Musk's Tesla announcement from last week about how it's actually You know the the new cars really all about automated driving and all the features he discussed make perfect sense for an automated Vehicle and it just seems like we are really cruising a lot. Oh, I made a pun by accident And then I had to stop So much is shamed herself Wait for someone to point it out. She's even faster than you in her own shaming Self-driving self-shaming so many autonomous systems And speaking of real roads Daimler just conducted the first test of its semi-autonomous highway pilot system on Autobahn 8 in Germany the system was put into a Mercedes-Benz Actrose truck which steered itself down the highway using radar and a stereo camera away while under the watchful eye Of a crew sitting inside back There's a video in which some Daimler executives list all the safety and policy steps needed to put something like this in the field Officially while not driving the big-ass truck For for part of the video though as soon as they start talking about safety You can see the guy puts his hands on the wheel and leaves them there the rest of the video. It's interesting Was Daimler the same company that had those initial rumored conversations with Apple last year? They were one of them. I think you're right. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, so I mean it's just it's to me. This is like we're actually getting Self-driving shuttles in the Netherlands on real roads We're getting this is the second incidence of a test of self-driving trucks on real roads There was another one. I think in Florida recently. This the stuff is happening Cruisin along I don't know because it worked again. It worked again Security company Palo Alto Networks identified new iOS malware they call is it I'm sorry. Is it yeast specter Y specter? Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay It's why I specter that infects devices that use iOS 8.3 or older a user must download an app from outside the Apple app store It then uses a fake certificate to take advantage of private APIs TechCrunch reports Apple says iOS 9 prevents the issue caught the issue caused by Y specter yeast specter And Apple has revoked the certificates used in its apps most affected users live in China and Taiwan this one's a less Concerning to me than the last one where they sneaked malware into the Apple app store This one is goes with the simple caveats of if you're going from, you know Untrusted sources or sources outside the Apple app store You have to be extra careful about what you install on your machine because the last one was a was a bunk X code Version, right? Yeah, not a certified Xcode version. What's amazing is how much Apple has won that war of Forcing everybody to use that app store ecosystem like when I'm on my on my MacBook And and I get very frustrated when the the setting is I can't download apps from third parties I Get very very angry at it, but on my phone. I'm like, yeah, come on Downloads an app from anywhere, but the app store It's it's fascinating how much of that that that's just a victory for them Well, yeah, and we talked about this a little bit last week as well on how we've come to just completely Implicitly trust anything from the app store and that's why that Xcode vulnerability was so crazy Because developers were using that infected Xcode build and that was causing infected versions of the apps to come out in China and that's a big deal because you you just have this level of trust with app store apps And but when you start from bad code, it turns out, you know, that it's not always going to be the case And and now whenever you have these stories of app store censorship app store update delays You can just imagine somewhere in Cupertino You have the the a few good men Courtroom scene of like like no you need me on that wall to keep bunk Xcode malware from getting into your iPhone Exactly just shaking their heads and disapproval did you order the Xcode purge? You lieutenant Weinberg as the era of 4k approaches the HDMI group Which is in charge of standards for HDMI cables has created a premium certification cables with that label have been tested at an HDMI group center to make short cables can stream Full 18 gigs needed for HDMI 2.0 spec the group says the cable should support for a full 4k resolution and high dynamic range or HDR Picture quality. Yeah So don't so don't get fooled But also what price are we gonna be charged? I mean what's it calls up in premium even in the standard? It starts to make people feel like they could charge you more for it That's a good conversation to have with mr. Robert Herron on a future episode as well. Absolutely Finally the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal was signed by 11 countries today and guess what the secretly negotiated trade deal Still hasn't released the text so we don't know what they agreed to officially. There's been lots of leaks There's lots of guesses EFF has a nice write up about what's probably in there of concern to tech enthusiasts Are rules regarding digital copyright being harmonized across the signing countries? Essentially what is thought to be in there is an agreement that the digital Millennium Copyright Act Procedures will have to be adopted by those other 10 countries in the partnership So I'm gonna wait to really look at what's in there until we know for sure Because there were some fair use defenses being pushed by some of the countries involved Biggest criticism of this is that the United States as it does with most trade compacts negotiated in secret But did allow several copyright holding representatives to come to the negotiations big Hollywood companies Big publishers and didn't really allow a voice for those of us who would like to defend fair use and public domain. I mean Yeah, what we lose public domain forever I mean listen, I'm just saying everything's probably gonna be fine And this isn't at all a watershed moment that we're gonna be yelling and screaming about for the next two decades You heard it here first. Hi words Hey submit your stories and vote on them daily tech news show reddit.com helps us figure out what we want to talk about and like I said It's not just oh, I know they're gonna cover that so let me submit an interesting story Although we do love that Even if it's the obvious story submit it so we can see how many people really are interested You guys can comment on it Maybe get some insights from you that we wouldn't have had daily tech news show dot reddit.com and that's a look at the headlines Alright Eddie, thank you for patiently waiting while we went through all the headlines there Be ready to talk about the Flying Robot International Film Festival. Absolutely. Let's do it. Alright, so if I've got this right There are cash prizes. There are also prizes prizes and you've got six categories cinematic drones for good aerial sports Lol WTF I made that and student films as well as a best-of-show With yeah, we don't have to go through every single one of them But you know, what's kind of the idea? What are the things that you're looking for and what made you want to do this film festival? Yeah, good questions Well, you know, there's there's so much different drone content that's being made out there right now and You know, we see beautiful stuff that's being done. You know the cinematic categories is certainly got the lion's share of the the submissions, but I think there's a lot of cool stuff that people are doing with drones that Are really not being talked about very much So so part of the impetus was to create a film festival that was Focused not just on the beautiful cinematics, but the some of the stories of how drones are being used in the various contexts I Was gonna say Eddie you've been the probably the person for me in San Francisco that first was really talking about drones and using drones And especially using them for for film and video production What do you think some are the biggest? Misconceptions that people have about consumer drones and and do you hope that this film festival will kind of curtail some of that? Yeah, absolutely. So, you know one of the categories is drones for good and the you know, there's there's a lot of You know, a lot of people have assumptions that drones are being used for evil and they certainly are in some context And so I think part of it is highlighting You know how how drones are actually being used for humanitarian purposes at least it for that particular category the you know, they're being used to deliver food aid medical aid to War to Syria specifically or at least that's that's one project. That's that's being kind of Up put forward. There's you know monitoring of Jungle areas in this in South America to to track You know anti-poaching and and deforestation and so I think part of it is just you know dispelling the negative side of drone You know drone drone use joint drone Stories that are popping up in the media all the time and saying, you know, these are you know We know that they're great filmmaking tools, but there are also tools that can be used for a numerous category of other things that are that are fun and beneficial You know using drones for a cinematic purpose is probably the most non controversial use of What is a very very broad spectrum? Do you feel a responsibility with a or an event like this to Demonstrate that this being the friendliest face to just show that drones are not a scary death dealing device I think I think I do have a little bit of responsibility I mean, I think anybody who's out there kind of talking about drones and doing stuff Implicitly has that responsibility, you know a little bit I mean, I don't think it's you know, everybody has to state the case and say, you know This is not a an arm drum that's gonna, you know shoot you or violate your privacy but at the same time I think by You know by sort of showcasing behaviors in which drones are being used positively I think can kind of change the narrative around a bit What do you think are the oh go ahead Tom no you go ahead Veronica I was gonna say I you mentioned that the cinematic category is probably the most popular that has been submitted so far But what for example, lol wtf. What does that constitute? Are those like drones accidentally crashing while filming or are they just like random stuff? What falls under there? Yeah, I would say That just the crashing videos definitely is is something that that fits and we have a few of those submissions I you know one example that I the example that actually made me decide that we needed to have this category Was something called cow art so if people Google cow art or hashtag cow art you'll find it but basically the video is of a farmer in I think Nebraska somewhere or whatever who's like driving around in this tractor and he's got a drone and he flew it up in the air and he's just hovering above his paddock and And he's a he's actually cattle rancher so he has like 200 or 300 heads of cattle that come out and he ends up putting cattle feed out in the in the You know on the on the paddock there in the form of what turns out to be a smiley face You figure that out about five minutes into the video you realize that he's laying that out and then so he's got In the video you see him kind of like you know controlling things and driving the tractor around and then you see the perspective of the drone from a top-down view and then all of a sudden you see these black cows forming the Smiley face and he goes around and kind of fills in the gaps where there's not enough cows or there's you know Or if there's too many he kind of shoes the food away a little bit by the end of it You have a nice happy set of 300 cows creating a smiley face. So that's that's very much a LOL WTO kind of video That is you're like I need I need to have a category for that How can I make this video win the festival is what Eddie said yes It needs a real category. Um, so what is what does your gear look like like for your personal setup? I know you do a lot of quadcopter drone videos for clients in your day-to-day work What is your stack look like well, so for so I've got a fleet of drones That I have built and purchased right so if I'm doing you know photography stuff my my my primary Drone these days is a DJI Phantom 3 which has a 4k camera on it. It's a great, you know It's a great decent sized The quality that comes out of that is is great for how much it costs the You know it's the the sensor on the camera is is comparable to a GoPro So you know we're not talking high-end stuff, but it's decent enough and it looks great actually for most for most average things Now I don't do a lot of high-end cinematography using drones. You know, they're definitely Heavy lifters that you can put red cameras on or DSLRs But my so from photography stuff. That's mostly what I do. But what I do have here is Some of the drones that I've built which are used for different purposes. So this is a combat drone which is basically a quadcopter that Is made that has a you know a relatively indestructible shell and this is used for dog fighting So at maker fair, you know, there's there's a bunch of guys who put together an event where two drones enter a cage And then one drone essentially leaves Airplane airplane dog fight just so everybody correct. Yes, not a fence. There's no most of yeah Most of our listeners are on audio. So it was a quadcopter with four Propellers on it. Yeah, right. No animals who kennels dogs right, right? There's no right exactly aerial dog fighting Kind of like robot wars in the air. Okay. It's never saying Eddie is the Michael Vick of He is definitely not but you've got the aerial sports category in there for stuff like that, right? So well exactly and let's just put this one out real quick This is the first one I built. This is also used as a combat drone What's interesting about this guy is that the airframe is just two wood sticks These are just poplar sticks with a little piece of plastic PVC in the middle there I'm gonna see that that would just fall apart if I got hit. Well, you know, and it does But the nice thing about it is since everything is held on by zip ties It's really really easy to fix on the fly there and it actually it's quite resilient. It doesn't This thing is on the plane Yes, my puns are coming up Without me knowing either but just to go back to the aerial sports category So I've got this little guy, which is an FPV racer and sorry for the guys for the people at home who are audio listeners But I'm holding a little 180 Size quadcopter that is made for what what is known as FPV racing and what's cool about this is you wear goggles like these And you are essentially viewing video of a wireless directly from the drone so you see what the drone sees as it's racing and You know three or four. They're almost like VR goggles. You're getting one, you know vision in each eye, right? Right, except they're not stereo. It's just that there's a single camera on here So it's just yeah, basically at least at this point. I mean there's there's people working on stereo scopic You know camera vision as well and actually Oculus I've seen there's an Oculus project right now where people are controlling drones with that Yeah, no, I've actually seen some of that it is fascinating fascinating. What is what is, you know? Capable now, you know, especially in terms of just live streaming. They what these amazing visuals are in 3d. All right You're your submission deadline is October 15th. Let's say I'm gonna go and buy a quadcopter I'm gonna come over to your place or I'm gonna build one of the ones that you've already built You know right now. I want to get in here before the 15th. What is the best category? Somebody listening to this would be able to do to submit in what what do you think is is what? What do they focus their energy on that is an excellent question If you are a student associated with any university whatsoever or not even a university, but you know any any institution educational institution Definitely submit in the student film category. The reason I say that not just because we don't have a whole lot of student film submissions yet But also it's kind of a wide-open category. So you could submit a narrative, you know Feature five-minute feature or you could it could be kind of like a maker how-to video or it can be something you're doing with you know Your dad Whatever it's pretty wide open. So the student films if you if you fit that category will be a great one to submit to Otherwise, I would say definitely the lol wtf. We could always use some more ridiculous hilarious weird videos films and then I'd say after that probably Maybe the I made that category that we can probably use a few more submissions in that category Finally, so be announced and the films screened at the Roxy theater in San Francisco November 19th if you want to attend that is it best to just go to the website and and take a look good Yeah, scrap tickets tickets around sale now. Definitely plenty available. Yeah, if you just go to the frift website There's there's a link for tickets and yeah, you can spy on 15 bucks ahead and I'll be there Yeah, Veronica will be there and we're having a reception prior to the Screening that everyone who's bought a ticket is invited to as well. So you know, I don't know if we mentioned this But but Veronica's not gonna be there. She's gonna be a judge. You're gonna judge this event, right? Right V. I'm I do love judging things Another advantage you could take with your film is not to butter up Veronica. She's incorruptible. So I'm pretty sure I am I mean you could try I'm pretty sure I'm you said look There's a lot of judges first of all, so buttering up just one isn't gonna do it But yeah, you know play played her strengths cats in the WTF might you know, good No, Twitter handles are all listed you if you want to if you want to try to bribe the judges Who am I to say that you can't do that except the organizer This is great Eddie, I'm so glad you're doing this. This is fantastic So well as as he said f r i f f.co, right frif.co Check it out One thing before we stop talking drones Mike in momentarily rainy Riverside wrote regarding the news story We covered on Friday that the FAA regulations have missed their deadline says what about taking some lessons from skydiving any jumps I make in the US are in compliance with the United States Parachute Association guidelines USPA issues skydiving licenses as well as publishing training manuals and course guidelines the FAA has authority over skydiving Under 14 CFR part 105 parachute operations, but the specifics of the sport are set forth by the USPA The drone industry could benefit from this same kind of self-regulated government hands-off approach And in fact the model Aircraft societies have been trying to push for just that thing. I don't know if that's anything connected with what you're doing Eddie But how do you feel about that? Yeah, I completely agree. I think I think it's up to sort of the players in this industry to sort of come up with their own guidelines and You know get the FAA to adopt that and I think we're kind of we're kind of moving towards that in terms of what the FAA is potentially going to Okay, so you know there's there are regulations that the FAA has put forth that it's considering and there was a public comment period where people could You know some comments on it. That's over now But we're looking at probably next year in which you know assuming if the proposed regulations go forth We'll be enabled and they're actually fairly common sense And I think most people who are who are flying drones today can get behind it and simple things like you know Taking taking a written test. You don't have to be an airplane pilot Which is the requirement now to get a what they call a 333 exemption The so it would just be a written test Maybe 25 hours of you know flight time to show that you actually know how to fly this thing And if it's if it's an off-the-shelf drone that You know that that is known such as a TGI or a 3d robotics Then you don't need to have what's called an airworthiness certificate because you're not inventing it If it is something that you're making then that that maybe opens things up to a different category But ultimately it's mostly common sense now the one pushback that I've heard back That I've heard from some people is the there's no No ability to do FPV style Flying so it all has to be line of sight Which is really problematic for FPV racing and that in that burgeoning industry Yeah, and I and this doesn't apply to the hobbyist in their backyard either right that you're talking about people who wanted to get Commercial license. Yeah, that's correct. Yeah, this is for commercial flight anything beyond the hobbyist stuff Yeah, all right our pick of the day comes from Philip Shane documentary producer Philip Shane Maybe I don't know if you've got a drone Phil, but you know, you might want to think about it He's probably got plenty of other stuff going on But he wanted to recommend beats one a great radio station He says better than most I listened to when I was growing up three main DJs are excellent I'm particularly partial to Ebro other DJs who fill some of the in-between time slots aren't as good But the special shows are almost universally excellent all the DJs and shows on the stations actually It's basically a podcast network put a strong emphasis on education and discovery Which I love and he kept it after the three-month trial he kept on listening So if you dropped off of beats one Phil saying hey, it's it's still a good station Send your picks to us feedback at daily tech news show comm you can find my picks at daily tech news show comm slash picks Couple of messages before we're done. Oh, go ahead. Sorry I actually kind of second that and I almost wish that They would embrace some of the podcast elements a little bit more like Like as I would like to I feel like I would subscribe to some of the podcasts and then be more interested to listen live When I have I feel like if you could catch it on demand Yeah You know whenever I've caught, you know, they've like run the jewels as a show There's there's a lot of I mean Dr. Dre's got a show There's a lot of like really really cool stuff there that I feel like they could probably get out a little bit better with podcasting Ben wrote in and said as you guys were bringing up ad blocking Darren mentioned setting up a land-based proxy for ad blocking and Recently I set up something similar on my land at home But instead of using a proxy to filter everything it simply blocked ad domains through DNS This allows you to app apply automatically to all DHCP clients via router settings and not require any sort of SSL or HTTPS setup it's set up on a Raspberry Pi Becomes your DNS server has a black list of ad domains and if it receives a query for one It redirects it back to a black web page hosted by itself the Raspberry Pi instead of sending the user to the ad domain I'd highly recommend it to anyone who wants to do land-based ad blocking Just pick up a Raspberry Pi and install the Raspberry Pi whole 2.0 software And he says look as a service if you want to try this out I set up a digital ocean droplet that I'll leave up until Friday. We'll have the DNS a number in I'm sorry not the DS now the IP address in the Show notes. I'm not gonna put it out on the podcast always be wary We think Ben's fine, but always be wary pointing your domain serving at any other IP address But if you're feeling like you want to try it out, we'll provide that there He says feel free to use it as your DNS server He does recommend Putting like 8.8.8.8 in as the alternate server because he will take it down sometime this weekend And he doesn't want to take you offline Thank you, Ben from getting chillery chillier chillery chillier Wisconsin, which was getting chillery here Chad writes I've been a police officer for approximately 16 years I've been a detective for about eight and the last five years have been involved in digital forensics I have a fairly good idea how much evidence is gathered from tech that comes through the police department and to date I am not aware of a single case that has been lost and a suspect went free due to evidence being encrypted Well, I will quickly admit that I'm sure it happens weekly in this nation at the city state federal law enforcement level I just do not think it's that common He says if evidence is encrypted here are your choices as a law enforcement officer crack the encryption ask for the password he says yes people give us their passwords and Find the evidence another way I'm a police officer and I support the following law abiding citizens people being held responsible for their actions I'm protecting the rights of everyone even convicted felons and putting bad people in jail I do not support the following government required backdoors to software government required backups of citizen information criminal or not government forcing I just went to the wrong place government forcing you to do stuff You don't want to basically government forcing anyone to provide a password to law enforcement or force to enter a password for law Enforcement anything that sidesteps the first fourth fifth amendments.

Thank you so much. Yay I always just and I've ever told you that I want there to be a fart at the end of that That diamond club Tag out after the giggle I don't know. I just sounds like it needs a fart. I don't know why I just I do it in my head every single time I hear it. I know we're still live by the way Yeah, like I want that sound but more farty Yeah, yeah, you used to think that was more of a fart than it actually is I think I know It sounds more like a splat that sounds like a splat It sounds, you know, when you when you buy the wet hot American summer DVD, they have a commentary track That's just the cast making extra fart sounds I feel like that's just the soundtrack that Veronica wants over life. Yeah Has anyone ever done a done like a director's cut? It's just just hard commentary on I Well, what oh no was burps it was belches, but somebody did a super cut of all the Rick and Morty burps. Oh God Yes, I love Rick and Morty so much. I haven't seen the finale yet. Oh I heard it's really good. Oh good Hey Veronica have you heard The the Rick and Morty concept album that's me kick kick started right now. No Yeah, Ali Gerritz. He's a friend of the show. I think she's actually gonna be a night attack this week I take my money. I will text you. She like texted me some of the rough cuts. I'm gonna really dig it It's amazing. What should we call this show by the way? Oh, right time for a showbot. Let's see Self-shaming clappers What Oh self-shaming clappers got it got it got it. I Definitely want to know what you thought I said. I said Belf. Oh, what's that an acronym for that? I don't know I can't tell you because we're on a nice family show Is it really is it really something? Okay Let's see I'm laughing at cruising along Like two drones enter one drone leave that's good. Yeah, that's pretty good. That's good This land is your land For a woody geth recall. Yeah, are you guys to look in the chat? TV collects all of the suggestions from the chat room During the course of the show if you want to take a look Facebook Show about TV. Yeah, and then people can vote on them Interesting. I like CEO. I don't know if you can do this, right? But CEO To the second power. Yeah, that's been getting thrown around just on Twitter a lot today, too It's CEO and then carrot to I can do it. Okay. Yeah Yeah, I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the the obvious correlation To Steve Jobs running two companies as well and then you know going Seems like He'll see so he's the next jobs, but I think they might be a little bit of maybe that's the problem people are really like Well, I mean like and there's really like the the next person in that kind of pantheon hierarchy is Elon Musk Who's currently doing it? So Yes, you can be a successful CEO or you can be the mega success Who runs two companies at the same time? But really both of them Both Steve Jobs and Elon Musk every, you know I had the company that they paid most attention to but even then they had extraordinarily strong deputies that ran Day-to-day and they were not micro managers and that I think is really what you would if you know from Previous reporting would have to worry about Dorsey because he was a kind of famous micromanager by the time that he left Twitter the last time to believe published reports All right, I have to pick the title now. I'm exporting the file. So I think I think CEO squared Yeah, it's the runaway hit Facebook in space is always classic and I really like cruising along but Cruisin along. I think it'll come back. It'll come back. Sure. Sure. I can make sure that happens That one's definitely one you can use on another day CEO squared not so much. So, yeah All right That's the new CEO's like having two companies being one CEO with two major tech companies. It's like the new Weird status symbol because you can't buy any more Teslas. So like you might as well have two companies My other company is a super successful startup tech company Yeah, that's what this feels like like you want more and more if you on Musk had a bumper sticker that said my other company is Tesla Oh my god, that's it my other company is a Tesla. Well, he has three solar city, too Well, yeah, and then there's his, you know, he just gave one away hyperloop. Yeah, he's like look I can't have four even Elon Musk has a has a limit Because he talks about himself in the third person I expect when I still think he needs to have his own His own line of clone Elon's Musk for a half second. I thought you said plan not close cologne. Well clone makes Yeah, probably does You can tell them apart, right? Clone cologne Everybody there's gonna be a serial TV show Did we know now? No, it's not a podcast It's Lord Miller. Yeah Like as much as the idea of a serial TV show kind of makes me want to Make one of those Veronica Belmont fart sounds. I love literally anything Lord of Miller. So I'm in I'm on the fence. I probably won't watch it What the serial TV show I don't even like serial to be honest, I'm Podcast, you know, we're not talking about the breakfast Yes, just making sure yes, I know my Sure because I just wrote an oatmeal guy cuz my profile picture had me standing the serial hell. Is that why? Really? Yeah, that's also true. That's very Roger, yeah, you're sending mixed signals about serial instead of standing in the podcast aisle. I don't know But then you you've got a newborn so you have to be extra careful I'm not careful, but extra, you know, you don't get as much time to watch TV So you're not gonna throw away your time on something. You don't like yeah, especially serial I just really question your taste level if you don't like that I question your taste level I question your taste level Just question your side, you know, I only ever listened to half an episode of it What? What is wrong with you people? Wait, I'm serial. Yes. I find it to be really annoying Come on, no, no, I do I don't like I don't like I don't like Dramatizations in that way when it comes to news It's not a dramatization, but the way she the whole way she does it is I'm sorry Wait a minute, I thought you're on the time table. I have to leave by two. Yes. I do have to leave Okay, everybody talk more trash about Stop not liking serial. Yeah Her and Veronica is gonna go you know braid her hair with Sarah Kaynig, you know But don't say podcasts are having a comeback. Yeah, no No, it's a really good show, but but Roger, I don't I don't blame you like I think if you do not like that NPR style Then it can it can great very quickly because it is that NPR style. I Just I it's never been my thing. I don't it's object. It is Objectively good. I'm just gonna put that out there. Nothing You'd be objectively wrong I can see that not every you there's no there's no, you know Taste is taste is you know, I can't judge other people's taste levels I guess what you're trying to say is other people have awful taste and Change that Clearly my taste is good because Eddie made me a judge Because it from you I'm not that worried about Roger stop talking Eddie's trying to talk So I actually flew a drone over one of the locations in serial so my sister lives really close to where a lot that happened in Baltimore and There was a part Henry, which one it is now that one of the parks not where Where the body, you know, not where the woman was murdered Oh, they went through something and I was like, well, this is near where I am I'm just gonna go see if I can fly a drone over the location and you know verify what they were saying And I did and it wasn't that exciting, but I got to fly down another part location. That's cool Exploration of it. Yeah, well, I mean you probably did about as much Okay, okay But I still couldn't verify if there was a payphone at the Best Buy. There you go. That was the tough one That was I mean here's here's the thing is like the show is Good and I do like it but at the same time that's like a 45-minute Conversation in a newsroom on whether or not there is a payphone at the Best Buy and instead it lasted Deep throat like like oh who could it be what oh we had an email from somebody guys This is a person's life on the line. It's dramatic and exciting That's like nails on a chalkboard to me. What is that? You know what I'm doing. I'm not imitating surrogating if that's what you think I'm doing I'm having opinions. Anyway, I'm leaving. I'm going to a photo shoot. Goodbye. Thank you Veronica Belmont for joining us I have to go fabulous and get my hair and makeup done whatever. Thank you Eddie for being on and putting up with these No, I love you guys She can't say I can't say anything mean about you because you're my friends. You'll see behind I'll just talk.
