Last Monday of the month and I’m letting my hair down! PJ Podcast in full effect. We’ve got some tech stories to cover, but we’re going to hang out in a more casual way. Google might promise us more support, but they’re also struggling to get more folks using RCS.

And what the heck is going on with Surface RAM and Storage Prices?

Let’s get our tech week started right!

#SGGQA 313: Tech and Tetris – Asus Says Goodbye to ZenFone, Sony Acquires Audeze, Google’s TERRIBLE AR Plans…

***

I REALLY needed a break and wanted to play some Tetris with some pals. This is probably one of the WORST audio podcasts I’ve ever produced, but it was exactly the kind of casual show I needed. The video replay will make a LOT more sense as we play a few rounds and chat about some tech gear. 

We’ll be back next week with a proper list of links and stories!

Happy Monday! Last Monday of the month! It’s a Pajama Podcast show!

This week we’re playing some Tetris while we chat about the news! This might be one of the poorer podcasts for audio listeners in my replay crew!

We’ll go wherever the chat wants to go, and we have a TON of topics we might cover. Asus might be killing the ZenFone line. Sony bought my favorite headphone manufacturer. Google and Samsung have a TERRIBLE plan for AR goggles.

AND CAN ANYONE BEAT ME IN TETRIS???

What a crazy weekend. We had a tropical storm and an earthquake!

Plus, Twitter continues to dumpster dive to lower and lower depths. Apple devices are easy to game with some basic Bluetooth hardware. Sandisk drives are failing. Courts rule AI art can’t be copyrighted.

Happy Monday!

Embargoes are dropping and I can finally chat about some of the tech on my desk! Like a new 3D printer from AnkerMake, and the mini-drone I’ve been flying!

Also, Disney dumps the metaverse. CNET dumps thousands of old articles. Apple dumps repairability on the MacBook. Firefox dumps the INABILITY to install browser extensions.

#SGGQA 310 – Qualcomm Takes a RISC, Fusion Power Breakthrough, YouTube Enhanced Playback, Trying to Figure Out LK-99

This might be the most science-y show I’ve ever tried to put together!

Qualcomm is partnering with firms to develop RISC competitors to ARM. YouTube is ENHANCING 1080p playback for Premium users. ISPs are likely grifting the FCC. Amazon and WalMart are still selling expired Chromebooks.

And what the heck is going on with LK-99? What’s a Superconductor? Augh! My Brain!
