#362 - Ill Winds Blow
March 20, 2018
- So the studies are in and, surprise surprise, it turns out the video games to not make you a crazy murder-happy sociopath! I know it's hard to understand, but it turns out that this study has been done before . . . repeatedly. What does,
#361 - Not In Rhode Island
March 13, 2018
- It's funny how a state that has an anthropomorphic set of male genitals as a mascot for a local college feels that they have the moral high ground when it comes to porn. No, seriously look it up; if you want to look at porn in Rhode Island,
#360 - Banal Sandwiches
March 06, 2018
Hey, do you know what happens when Zuke reads a lot of words, but never hears them out loud? He can't pronounce them. So words like applique, chipotle, and banal come out VERY different than they should. - In actual news,
#359 - Barcephona
February 27, 2018
We've got news from the Mobile World Congress and Nokia has got some cool stuff for us! Yeah, I know: we're surprised too! - Apple, meanwhile, can't seem to sell enough of the iPhone X to really make it last and Samsung might be holding back on featu...
#358 - Snapchat User Tears
February 20, 2018
Don't you hate it when the app you don't really need to use to do something you don't actually need to do makes changes? It makes it just so difficult to do the thing. How can they even expect you to continue on like that? -
#357 - Late Night Zombies
February 13, 2018
No sleep and no sleep make Zohner something something. - There is a ton of news in the tech world this week and none of it makes a lick of sense. It doesn't help that we're recording the episode so late that it might as well be morning. So, um,
#356 - What's A Mac?
February 06, 2018
In breaking news that shouldn't surprise anyone, you are surrounded by computers. They are in your car, on your wrist, in your pocket, in your backpack, in your microwave! Unless, apparently, you're an Apple user; then it's all magic, I guess.
#355 - Nasal Ramen Noodles
January 30, 2018
So, it turns out that maybe (just maybe) the concept of Net Neutrality was actually a good one. And maybe (just maybe) it would have benefited the ISP's as well. And maybe (probably) we are going to witness a hilarious walk back in policies as major I...
#354 - The Amazon Drain
January 23, 2018
Google is having problems as they rush to fix WiFi bugs, while Apple continues to copy Samsung by having phone batteries catch fire. Meanwhile Amazon is looking for the next big city to plunder and the federal government is looking to extort the major ...
#353 - CES 2018
January 16, 2018
Zuke, Schmidty, and Dr Squishy come to you right from CES 2018! We talk about what we saw, what's going to be hot, what's really not, and what we REALLY didn't expect to see up on the second floor!
Throttled and Frozen – SD – EP #352
January 09, 2018
- Well, it’s 2018 and so far, it’s not looking great. Intel’s hardware has a massive defect that’s requiring software patches that throttle performance, GoPro and eero are doing mass layoffs, HP computers caught Samsung’s flu and now their batteries...
#351 - Right In The Apples
December 31, 2017
To say that 2017 was a bit of a misstep for Apple would, I feel, be putting it lightly. However, maybe it's a misstep they need to have to get through and finally be free of the ever present question they've been haunted with for years: "Would Jobs hav...
#350 - Stolen Blockchain
December 24, 2017
It's a festivus miracle! Everyone gets the episode early! - Not that it's going to do anything for you, mind you. After all, we're still getting hacked, your information is still getting leaked with alarming regularity,
#349 - No Mac For You!
December 19, 2017
Apple has been blowing things this month. It started with software, went to security, and has finished with our very minds. That's right; Apple has launched a couple products that could really change things!
#348 - Men Are Ugly
December 12, 2017
We've done it. We've found the bottom of the barrel. Of all the stupid stories we've ever had to report on, we've finally found the worst one ever. See, it turns out that if a guy doesn't like a girl, he can threaten to find her home and attack her a...
#347 - Trust No App!
December 05, 2017
- We all kinda knew that Chinese apps may not be on the up and up, but we didn't they would be so blatant about stealing info. Oh, and Google too. Yes, that Google. After all, when you told your phone you didn't want to be tracked,
#346 - Yay! You're Screwed!
November 28, 2017
With everyone getting busted for sexual assault, I guess the FCC felt they had to "1 Up" everybody and screwed us all without our consent! Seems about right for this administration. - We were probably asking for it,
#345 - Remember The Jericho
November 21, 2017
Funny how when it's another set of religious radicals bringing down buildings and peoples it's ok. - We're loopy as ever with our latest show recording yet! Zohner is completely out of the loop and Zuke sort of forgot what the internet even looked lik...
#344 - Bad Achievement Unlocked
November 14, 2017
You know that feeling you get when you can't tell if someone is trying to make a fool of you or not? Yeah, Facebook's new idea sounds kinda like that! They'll help block your nudes if you send them nudes. Don't they claim not to allow nudes anyway?
#343 - Better Than That!
November 07, 2017
Things are not great over at TripAdvisor right now, what with them sending people to get attacked and then trying to hide it. The Pixel 2 XL is having an even worse week, if that was even possible. And Apple may have strung the iPhone 8 out to dry!
#342 - Super Dickery
October 31, 2017
Good news everybody! We're one step closer to that state-run media and propaganda stage we've all been looking forward to! Hooray! Verizon has reached a whole new level of horrible, Facebook has decided that even the content creators don't matter an...
#341 - Pumpkin Spice Moose
October 24, 2017
So, in a bold news flash that surprises no one at this point, it turns out that nothing is really secure! Your RSA token? Not really secure! Your wifi security? Nope, not even close! Photo site used by teenagers? Honestly,
#340 - Asian Long Division
October 17, 2017
So, it turns out pretty much everything is worse than we thought: the Equifax hack, Kaspersky, Samsung, Facebook . . . all of it. Even Google is getting in on the spying action, just hiding it behind a "feature". In positive news,
#339 - In Mother Russia
October 10, 2017
It seems that Russia not only is good at hacking, but they're also also pretty good at social engineering. And unfortunately, Equifax just can't seem to stay out of the news as things just keep getting worse for them,
