00:03:11 ◼ ► but the one thing I just wanted to bring up was some people on the Reddit came up with the term for what we were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/191">TS</a>]
00:03:18 ◼ ► talking about which was last time we were discussing Otto as a potential word to describe self driving cars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/198">TS</a>]
00:03:25 ◼ ► but that I kept saying it has a linguistic conflict with German and as I have also heard since then Dutch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/205">TS</a>]
00:03:32 ◼ ► and a few other languages use auto as their word for car and the term for this or four words that sound the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/212">TS</a>]
00:03:40 ◼ ► but have different meanings in different languages is false friends. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/220">TS</a>]
00:03:45 ◼ ► So that is the term for what we were describing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/225">TS</a>]
00:03:48 ◼ ► and as always there is a Wikipedia page which lists a bunch of false friends. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/228">TS</a>]
00:03:54 ◼ ► But the example that I particularly like is from a Dutch advertisement that they have on the page. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/234">TS</a>]
00:04:00 ◼ ► Age which reads is a picture of this little girl who's standing in a field [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/240">TS</a>]
00:04:04 ◼ ► and next to her there are the words Mama die die die and in Dutch that translates as Mom I want I want I want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/244">TS</a>]
00:04:15 ◼ ► and it is a yogurt commercial so the child is actually requesting yogurt not the death of her mother [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/255">TS</a>]
00:04:21 ◼ ► but DI is an example of false friends there for those two words before I bring up the pronunciation of your good versus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/261">TS</a>]
00:04:30 ◼ ► bad can I just ask because it's not immediately jumping into my mind was a cold false friends. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/270">TS</a>]
00:04:37 ◼ ► That's that that term doesn't immediately make sense to me as why does it is obvious to you I think that the friends is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/277">TS</a>]
00:04:45 ◼ ► supposed to be friends as opposed to be like a hominem they're their friends because these words sound the same. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/285">TS</a>]
00:04:52 ◼ ► So you would assume that they mean the same thing you know they had their false friends that's the way I interpret it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/292">TS</a>]
00:04:59 ◼ ► Maybe that was really obvious to everyone but it wasn't it wasn't to me I think it sounds better than false hominids. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/299">TS</a>]
00:05:04 ◼ ► That's just not as fun as a false friend. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/304">TS</a>]
00:05:05 ◼ ► I did it I think I just don't think that's a good term for I don't know I feel like we have a consistent theme on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/305">TS</a>]
00:05:12 ◼ ► show being displeased with the words for something and then trying to come up with our own words. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/312">TS</a>]
00:05:18 ◼ ► Do you have if you have an alternative to just make sure you are not referring I don't think Shanae like that could be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/318">TS</a>]
00:05:23 ◼ ► like a thing we do one day. Like Aaron dictionary because that's what we're working towards ultimately here isn't it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/323">TS</a>]
00:05:27 ◼ ► Basically a week if we keep this up long enough there will be a large enough vocabulary of hello internet specific [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/327">TS</a>]
00:05:34 ◼ ► words on the topic of autos of all the of all of your firmly held positions on this pod cast. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/334">TS</a>]
00:05:43 ◼ ► That seems to be the one that so far has brought the most disagreement even from your fans. I can use that term. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/343">TS</a>]
00:05:52 ◼ ► Has your position wavered at all on that on the debate. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/352">TS</a>]
00:05:55 ◼ ► Your insistence that self driving cars should be called auto stuff must. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/355">TS</a>]
00:06:00 ◼ ► Appropriate name for them if a name must be coined. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/360">TS</a>]
00:06:02 ◼ ► Well again it is on my insistence that everybody uses this this word this is this is my pet or this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/362">TS</a>]
00:06:08 ◼ ► and this is my push I should say for the word in English to describe self driving cars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/368">TS</a>]
00:06:13 ◼ ► and yes I read through all the Reddit comments and I see this does drive people kind of crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/373">TS</a>]
00:06:19 ◼ ► but just like on our podcast in the red it I was also asking can people give me specific reasons why they don't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/379">TS</a>]
00:06:29 ◼ ► And every example that I saw just seemed incredibly contrived of where this could possibly cause any kind of conflict [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/389">TS</a>]
00:06:37 ◼ ► so you know I remember now because I like your position on this because your position is it's only a problem if it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/397">TS</a>]
00:06:42 ◼ ► going to cause some fundamental like mistake like going to the parking lot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/402">TS</a>]
00:06:48 ◼ ► and driving away in the wrong order in the wrong path. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/408">TS</a>]
00:06:51 ◼ ► Confusion can be more subtle than the sort of black and white mistakes of wrong [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/411">TS</a>]
00:06:57 ◼ ► and right to can just be a general well what are we talking about here kind of vagueness. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/417">TS</a>]
00:07:03 ◼ ► Even that confusion should be avoided. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/423">TS</a>]
00:07:05 ◼ ► I guess we need to change the Dutch word for I want to then because there's a lot of confusion there over whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/425">TS</a>]
00:07:11 ◼ ► or not people are requesting things or instructing death to their conversational Q. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/431">TS</a>]
00:07:17 ◼ ► No I think if the term I want had never been thought of before in Dutch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/437">TS</a>]
00:07:23 ◼ ► and they were coming up with a new word they probably would avoid the word die. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/443">TS</a>]
00:07:28 ◼ ► Yes I bet they would because this is this is much more severe. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/448">TS</a>]
00:07:32 ◼ ► This is going back to the river looping back into safe argument with my son. I've heard of it or remain unconvinced. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/452">TS</a>]

00:08:30 ◼ ► You did what can only be described as a ridiculous job in trying to market at the last podcast. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/510">TS</a>]
00:08:39 ◼ ► Yes Yes Not only was it at the end of the podcast but for some crazy amount of blank space [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/519">TS</a>]
00:08:46 ◼ ► or we discussed it just to make sure no one heard. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/526">TS</a>]

00:08:57 ◼ ► Here at the start of season three might be a good time to inform people that we have very excellent. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/537">TS</a>]

00:09:06 ◼ ► But yes I save this for the end of the previous podcast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/546">TS</a>]
00:09:11 ◼ ► and then I mean honestly just just through my own mistake I accidentally had this enormous amount of blank space at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/551">TS</a>]
00:09:18 ◼ ► end of the podcast before we actually talked about that section. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/558">TS</a>]
00:09:23 ◼ ► And so I do not know how many people actually got there. I will say we still sold a bunch of T. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/563">TS</a>]
00:09:29 ◼ ► Shirts but I'm betting that there are a lot of people who just who missed that part of it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/569">TS</a>]
00:09:34 ◼ ► So I do apologize for my terrible editing skills though I do have one tiny thing to say in my defense which is that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/574">TS</a>]
00:09:44 ◼ ► have been trying out overcast lately as my main pod cast client I have a kitten I did write a little article on my own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/584">TS</a>]
00:09:53 ◼ ► blog recommending people use particular podcast clients because I see all the time people in the Reddit say. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/593">TS</a>]
00:10:00 ◼ ► How they listen on the Web site or they download the M P three files. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/600">TS</a>]
00:10:04 ◼ ► And this is this is just the worst possible experience you could ever have listening to a podcast. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/604">TS</a>]
00:10:09 ◼ ► You should totally get a podcast client. If you aren't listening to the sound of my voice on one right now. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/609">TS</a>]
00:10:16 ◼ ► They're just such a such a better experience. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/616">TS</a>]
00:10:19 ◼ ► And there are three that I recommend depending on your needs in that article. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/619">TS</a>]
00:10:23 ◼ ► But anyway I am temporarily trying out over cast of my main podcast client [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/623">TS</a>]
00:10:29 ◼ ► and I do the final listen of the show in overcast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/629">TS</a>]
00:10:34 ◼ ► but overcast has a feature which cuts out the majority of all of the silent spaces to kind of make the podcast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/634">TS</a>]
00:10:42 ◼ ► So I'm going to partly blame overcast because it would make it harder to notice that there was a big gap of silent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/642">TS</a>]
00:10:49 ◼ ► space at the end because overcast would cut out a bunch of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/649">TS</a>]
00:10:52 ◼ ► but overcast doesn't cut out all of that so I do have to acknowledge that it was also a large part just my own stupid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/652">TS</a>]
00:11:00 ◼ ► fault so I apologize for my terrible editing skills. We'd like to thank Harry's for their support of this podcast. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/660">TS</a>]

00:11:17 ◼ ► Now the whole business was born from the frustration of buying shaving blades at local shops where they not only cost a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/677">TS</a>]
00:11:23 ◼ ► fortune but a lot behind security barriers like the crown jewels or something with Harry's it's all easier cheaper [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/683">TS</a>]
00:11:31 ◼ ► and the product really is brilliant. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/691">TS</a>]

00:17:11 ◼ ► Yes And at that moment I found myself thinking like boy I really realize right now how much I don't want this to happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1031">TS</a>]
00:17:20 ◼ ► you know it's always different when when things are real like it's easier to be neutral [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1040">TS</a>]
00:17:25 ◼ ► when you're further away from the event. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1045">TS</a>]

00:17:29 ◼ ► and as we said last time even though we don't live in Scotland that would still affect us quite a lot. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1049">TS</a>]
00:17:36 ◼ ► I was getting a little nervous that maybe this would actually tip over into a yes vote again if that's what Scotland [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1056">TS</a>]
00:17:41 ◼ ► wanted that would have been totally fine. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1061">TS</a>]

00:18:56 ◼ ► It seems like there's some funny architecture in the brain that refuses to consider things until they are actually real [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1136">TS</a>]
00:19:03 ◼ ► and then suddenly says we're going to make a decision on this and boom here's our decision. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1143">TS</a>]

00:19:39 ◼ ► as we both say it's not really our business. I've almost went a little bit the other way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1179">TS</a>]

00:28:23 ◼ ► but talking about talking about change does bring us back to to one of the points which is that I don't necessarily think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1703">TS</a>]
00:28:29 ◼ ► that this means that the status quo is going to be the case. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1709">TS</a>]

00:28:55 ◼ ► But yes Scotland was promised a bunch of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1735">TS</a>]
00:28:58 ◼ ► but you used the word evolution which is a constant topic of conversation in U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1738">TS</a>]
00:29:04 ◼ ► Politics because unlike a country like America where the founders got together and they wrote out a document [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1744">TS</a>]

00:29:18 ◼ ► and we've written it all down and at least when we change rules [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1758">TS</a>]
00:29:22 ◼ ► or we have amendments it happens everywhere all at once. A parliamentary government like the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1762">TS</a>]

00:29:49 ◼ ► and you also end up with I mean some of the things like that I've been researching is like these ruled it happened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1789">TS</a>]
00:29:55 ◼ ► because Scotland was independent for a while but then it came back and won. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1795">TS</a>]
00:30:00 ◼ ► Or the circumstances under which it comes back and I like the thing that people get mad about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1800">TS</a>]
00:30:05 ◼ ► and my videos are sometimes i don't show whales on the map but when I show the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1805">TS</a>]

00:30:16 ◼ ► but you have all of this crazy stuff that has happened over history [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1816">TS</a>]
00:30:20 ◼ ► and because of that you have this weird collection of what are the rules in these particular places [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1820">TS</a>]
00:30:27 ◼ ► and do evolution now is used to talk about what local powers do the various four countries England Scotland Wales [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1827">TS</a>]
00:30:37 ◼ ► and Northern Ireland of the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1837">TS</a>]

00:30:42 ◼ ► but they have different levels of power like say like Scotland controls its own education system whereas the way I was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1842">TS</a>]
00:30:50 ◼ ► education system is controlled from England and right of married into the English one. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1850">TS</a>]
00:30:54 ◼ ► Right which is where like when I got qualified to teach in England I was automatically qualified to teach in Wales [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1854">TS</a>]
00:31:01 ◼ ► but not Scotland. If I if I wanted to teach in Scotland I would have to go through another process to get approved. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1861">TS</a>]
00:31:07 ◼ ► And also Scotland Scotland has their own like the N.H.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1867">TS</a>]
00:31:11 ◼ ► Works in the National Health Service works differently in Scotland [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1871">TS</a>]
00:31:14 ◼ ► and the what is it the National Trust like the store. There's all of these things which you think are U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1874">TS</a>]
00:31:22 ◼ ► Wide but actually Scotland has their own version. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1882">TS</a>]
00:31:25 ◼ ► So in this in the devolution actually Scotland has the most amount of power wells [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1885">TS</a>]
00:31:31 ◼ ► and Northern Ireland have some power but not as much of Scotland and the thing that seems almost crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1891">TS</a>]
00:31:38 ◼ ► when you try to explain to people is that England has no power in devolution [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1898">TS</a>]
00:31:43 ◼ ► and say wait a most people living that is in England the most powerful one being gracious given it doesn't make any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1903">TS</a>]
00:31:49 ◼ ► sense at all when you explain it but you have to remember these are all particular circumstances [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1909">TS</a>]
00:31:54 ◼ ► and so there's a lot of talk now about well if we're giving Scotland more. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1914">TS</a>]
00:32:00 ◼ ► Power in terms of devolution in terms of what can they control that the U.K. National parliament can't override. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1920">TS</a>]
00:32:07 ◼ ► Maybe it's time to to basically start over and write a new Act of Union [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1927">TS</a>]
00:32:14 ◼ ► and say look let's let's make this consistent between the four countries of the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1934">TS</a>]
00:32:19 ◼ ► and How much power are they going to have and what is the national What should be handled at the national level [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1939">TS</a>]
00:32:26 ◼ ► Again I keep saying the country level because that's the right term [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1946">TS</a>]
00:32:28 ◼ ► but if you're an American the equivalent of the state level [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1948">TS</a>]
00:32:32 ◼ ► and I'm very interested in this I might my mind is a topic I have thought about very often of doing a video on because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1952">TS</a>]
00:32:40 ◼ ► there are just there are lots of weird quirks about how the system works [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1960">TS</a>]
00:32:43 ◼ ► but it seems like it is definitely overdue for some kind of change with how how the power is distributed whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1963">TS</a>]
00:32:54 ◼ ► Yeah that's that's usually the term that it uses is making it into a formal federalized system which as a general [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1974">TS</a>]
00:33:02 ◼ ► principle I would I would be behind that. You know the notion is that the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1982">TS</a>]
00:33:07 ◼ ► National parliament would be limited to things that concern all four countries so maintaining the military maintaining [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1987">TS</a>]
00:33:13 ◼ ► the currency but it would not be responsible for things like the education system. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/1993">TS</a>]
00:33:20 ◼ ► How the health system is handled in each of the countries in that that would be up to them as individual pieces. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2000">TS</a>]
00:33:25 ◼ ► So I don't necessarily think that that we are headed into an interesting times. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2005">TS</a>]
00:33:32 ◼ ► I think there is a lot that could be improved and may very well be improved if we are going going forward [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2012">TS</a>]
00:33:39 ◼ ► and as I said totally should happen. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2019">TS</a>]
00:33:41 ◼ ► Give Scotland the additional devolution powers that they were promised during the referendum. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2021">TS</a>]
00:33:46 ◼ ► Surely like Scotland like rebelling [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2026">TS</a>]
00:33:48 ◼ ► and leaving the union is more interesting then maybe that's going to be a whole bunch of laws [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2028">TS</a>]
00:33:54 ◼ ► and federalization things past that stands. Yeah sure it'll be an interesting I guess if you're. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2034">TS</a>]
00:34:00 ◼ ► Not interested in that kind of stuff it sounds uninteresting I agree yes of course Scotland leaving is much more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2040">TS</a>]
00:34:05 ◼ ► dramatic but I don't I don't think that this is necessarily the status quo. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2045">TS</a>]
00:34:11 ◼ ► I was listening to the radio and the other thing that's been discussed obviously is if this happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2051">TS</a>]
00:34:16 ◼ ► and they start going down this kind of federalization route there are other things to be considered as well. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2056">TS</a>]
00:34:21 ◼ ► For example the north of England which also feels quite sort of separate from the London Westminster bubble. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2061">TS</a>]
00:34:31 ◼ ► There's talk about will power some powers be devolved to the regions of England as well so I guess there's a bit of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2071">TS</a>]
00:34:37 ◼ ► bandwagon jumping going on at this point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2077">TS</a>]
00:34:41 ◼ ► and all the sort of interest groups in parts of England are all sort of crying out now as well saying well if we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2081">TS</a>]
00:34:46 ◼ ► going to start doling out powers to people can we have a bit more control over destiny [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2086">TS</a>]
00:34:51 ◼ ► and not just be controlled by London. Nigel thing isn't it. You know oh I mean this is this is you know a lot of. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2091">TS</a>]
00:35:00 ◼ ► They get one when I look at political stories. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2100">TS</a>]
00:35:02 ◼ ► I often think that it's much it's often much less about a particular left right divide as it is often a major [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2102">TS</a>]
00:35:11 ◼ ► metropolitan areas vs non major metropolitan areas divide. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2111">TS</a>]
00:35:16 ◼ ► Yeah I think that is often the the problem that people actually care about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2116">TS</a>]
00:35:22 ◼ ► and maybe that gets tangled up in this other notion of left versus right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2122">TS</a>]
00:35:28 ◼ ► But there's no way to deny it that that the handling say transportation in the north of England is an entirely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2128">TS</a>]
00:35:35 ◼ ► different question than how do you handle transportation in zone one of London the absolute center of the city. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2135">TS</a>]
00:35:42 ◼ ► You cannot possibly have a as a same solution for both of those areas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2142">TS</a>]
00:35:49 ◼ ► and that depending on how the federalization would work out I think it would totally make sense to say the North of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2149">TS</a>]
00:35:55 ◼ ► England has devolved powers to handle certain things that make sense for that region to handle. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2155">TS</a>]
00:36:00 ◼ ► Then it doesn't make sense for all of England to vote as a single block and what I think is that the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2160">TS</a>]
00:36:05 ◼ ► Is actually quite lopsided with London because if you you know roughly sixty million people in the U.K. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2165">TS</a>]
00:36:13 ◼ ► And again Ball Park ing it you can say there's about ten million people who live in the London Metropolitan area [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2173">TS</a>]
00:36:19 ◼ ► and so you have a country with like one sixth of the population broadly speaking lives in the capital city that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/2179">TS</a>]

00:51:11 ◼ ► and observe the humans yourself as you listen to how an alien saves humans walking around the city. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3071">TS</a>]
00:51:17 ◼ ► That's all aboot dot com slash hello internet. And thank you to them for supporting our podcast. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3077">TS</a>]
00:51:24 ◼ ► There's been a lot of technology in years and I know you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3084">TS</a>]
00:51:28 ◼ ► and I love technology podcasts although we don't consider this to be a technology podcast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3088">TS</a>]
00:51:33 ◼ ► but it's going to have to be a little bit today because it's all been happening. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3093">TS</a>]
00:51:37 ◼ ► Yeah so this is this is this episode is basically one hundred percent topical I think because a bunch of stuff has just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3097">TS</a>]
00:51:43 ◼ ► happened either exactly today or in the past couple of days and we want to talk about all of it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3103">TS</a>]
00:51:48 ◼ ► So the Scottish referendum was the first on that list and we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3108">TS</a>]
00:51:50 ◼ ► and then we have a few technology things that that we'd like to talk about the Kindle. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3110">TS</a>]
00:51:55 ◼ ► Yes the Kindle I feel like and I feel like I should have a Kindle corner on. The show came about that all the time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3115">TS</a>]
00:52:05 ◼ ► and so Amazon has announced a new Kindle which I was I was wondering if they were going to come out with a new one as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3125">TS</a>]
00:52:13 ◼ ► kind of slow with the releases on that which makes sense there are two very different product [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3133">TS</a>]
00:52:16 ◼ ► but the code is about code. OK So the official name is I have to look at it is a Kindle. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3136">TS</a>]
00:52:24 ◼ ► Voyage is the name of the new one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3144">TS</a>]
00:52:27 ◼ ► but I am just going to call it the Voyager because I know that is exactly what I'm going to call it every time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3147">TS</a>]
00:52:32 ◼ ► Anyway so let's just cut to the chase where I don't try to struggle with this every time it's the Kindle Voyager. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3152">TS</a>]
00:52:41 ◼ ► Does Voyager straightaway conjure up Star Trek to you or the NASA probes. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3161">TS</a>]
00:52:47 ◼ ► when I think into Voyager I think Janeway is what I think I don't think the probe that I hear Voyager I you know I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3167">TS</a>]
00:52:54 ◼ ► think there's coffee in that nebula. That's what I think. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3174">TS</a>]
00:52:57 ◼ ► Yes Amazon enough is I think just yesterday I think I have I know nothing about it I'm not saying I did not know it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3177">TS</a>]
00:53:03 ◼ ► happened until you told me what does it look different. OK so I can't remember the last time I just feel it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3183">TS</a>]
00:53:10 ◼ ► I know why I should ask you because you don't know either [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3190">TS</a>]
00:53:12 ◼ ► but I think we decided that you have the Kindle Paperwhite that's OK so I had to say when you have yes. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3192">TS</a>]
00:53:19 ◼ ► OK OK so the Kindle Voyager is basically the improved version of the paper white if you look at it it is the same size. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3199">TS</a>]
00:53:32 ◼ ► It has roughly the same bezel around the edge but they have made it a little bit lighter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3212">TS</a>]
00:53:39 ◼ ► and they have improved some of the complaints about the Kindle Paperwhite count on stopping a taste to get straight to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3219">TS</a>]
00:53:50 ◼ ► Let's get to justification of testosterone to talk about the rest of it but all right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3230">TS</a>]
00:53:57 ◼ ► and then you can talk about the old that's all anyone wanted. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3237">TS</a>]
00:54:02 ◼ ► OK so I hear oh there's a new there's a new Kindle how exciting this is what I originally you know in my heart of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3242">TS</a>]
00:54:10 ◼ ► hearts thought their their their Phone announcement was everybody was looking at that video going OK [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3250">TS</a>]
00:54:15 ◼ ► or a new Kindle right because I knew I wanted to see. Now that I hear here is the real deal. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3255">TS</a>]
00:54:20 ◼ ► Now if you watch some of their promo videos they have a very carefully selected big bold images that show left [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3260">TS</a>]
00:54:29 ◼ ► justified text and they show it because it looks good left justified text. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3269">TS</a>]
00:54:39 ◼ ► and people have sent me screen shots all the time so I might look at the stuff stop sending me screenshots of left [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3279">TS</a>]
00:54:45 ◼ ► justified text on your Kindle because when when a publisher puts their book on Amazon service [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3285">TS</a>]
00:54:53 ◼ ► when they format the book they have the option to force left justify the text so it is not an option on the Kindle they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3293">TS</a>]
00:55:03 ◼ ► can just specify this text needs to be left justified and all reasonable book publishers do that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3303">TS</a>]
00:55:10 ◼ ► Which unfortunately is not very many but some. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3310">TS</a>]
00:55:13 ◼ ► Every once in a while I get a book and it is left justified [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3313">TS</a>]
00:55:16 ◼ ► and I just want to kiss the author for having that that be the case. And so I look at their promo video is like huh. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3316">TS</a>]
00:55:24 ◼ ► Well isn't that interesting you seem to be showing off your your left justified text. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3324">TS</a>]
00:55:28 ◼ ► But in every one of the hands on videos [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3328">TS</a>]
00:55:31 ◼ ► and if you look closely at a bunch of the screen shots you can totally see that it is the full justified text [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3331">TS</a>]
00:55:37 ◼ ► abomination on every Kindle that has come before with those same saying Oh those silly spaces so odd shapes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3337">TS</a>]
00:55:44 ◼ ► and yes with with with if you if you if you read a book that has big words in it you're going to have big spaces on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3344">TS</a>]
00:55:50 ◼ ► your lines and it just looks the thing that I always have in mind when when I'm reading a book on the Kindle is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3350">TS</a>]
00:55:56 ◼ ► and you get to a line that has a whole bunch of spaces on it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3356">TS</a>]
00:56:00 ◼ ► Bases are just much bigger it's like the narrator in my head has to slow down to read that part. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3360">TS</a>]
00:56:05 ◼ ► That's partly why it's so terribly distracting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3365">TS</a>]
00:56:09 ◼ ► and on top of that Amazon doesn't recognize em dashes as proper punctuation so if you have a word dash you know clause [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3369">TS</a>]
00:56:17 ◼ ► dash go on to the next sentence. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3377">TS</a>]
00:56:18 ◼ ► Amazon thinks that whole section is just one gigantic word [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3378">TS</a>]
00:56:22 ◼ ► and so you'll end up with some stupid stupid line that has half of it is blank space so pretty. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3382">TS</a>]
00:56:28 ◼ ► Anyway the thing I'm not clear about are you saying that this is new to the Voyager that the publishers can do this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3388">TS</a>]
00:56:35 ◼ ► let's justify this I haven't always been the case. OK even on my paper every once in a while I get a book that is left. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3395">TS</a>]
00:56:43 ◼ ► Did you not know this before look at this new information to you because you did you never brought this up before. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3403">TS</a>]
00:56:47 ◼ ► I never brought it up because it is it wasn't worth bringing up a trivial number of books like you it we did it why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3407">TS</a>]
00:56:53 ◼ ► it's like Christmas morning when I get a book that is left justified. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3413">TS</a>]
00:56:57 ◼ ► OK it just is so so rare that it's not worth mentioning. Thank you. It's also is there a change with the Voyager. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3417">TS</a>]
00:57:05 ◼ ► and then now I have to dig through every screenshot every video of this thing anywhere on the Internet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3425">TS</a>]
00:57:10 ◼ ► and eventually I find through some of the hands on videos. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3430">TS</a>]
00:57:14 ◼ ► The great disappointment that I'm expecting which is an image of the setting screen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3434">TS</a>]
00:57:19 ◼ ► and sure enough there is no option for the justification at all it's the same crummy settings screen on the current one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3439">TS</a>]
00:57:27 ◼ ► there isn't a way to turn on less justification and I am I am terribly sad about this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3447">TS</a>]
00:57:33 ◼ ► Now the thing that I have to say though is that I am also not terribly surprised by this because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3453">TS</a>]
00:57:42 ◼ ► and now I'm going to have to get a little bit vague here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3462">TS</a>]
00:57:45 ◼ ► But let's just say I have been contacted since our first complaining about the Kindle show by people who are within the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3465">TS</a>]
00:58:00 ◼ ► I've had a couple conversations with people in different areas of that universe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3480">TS</a>]
00:58:05 ◼ ► and what they like in a car park like meeting in the middle of the night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3485">TS</a>]
00:58:08 ◼ ► and stuff like that that that basically I guess what the hell I'm Dan so I can see them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3488">TS</a>]
00:58:12 ◼ ► or some that like you need to know something awesome and the the the and I'm going to be a bit vague here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3492">TS</a>]
00:58:19 ◼ ► but the information that was conveyed to me is that basically won it one of two states is the case. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3499">TS</a>]
00:58:30 ◼ ► The Amazon the people in charge of the Amazon Kindle software are either unaware of left justification which is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3510">TS</a>]
00:58:40 ◼ ► horrifying to me as as a possibility [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3520">TS</a>]
00:58:44 ◼ ► or the other thing that was conveyed to me is that they are indifferent to this as an issue in general which is even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3524">TS</a>]
00:58:53 ◼ ► worse because if someone is unaware you have the hope of changing their mind if they are indifferent. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3533">TS</a>]
00:59:00 ◼ ► There is absolutely nothing that you can do so I was since these people contacted me and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3540">TS</a>]
00:59:07 ◼ ► and then since the Voyager came out I was hoping that maybe something had changed which is why I was looking for all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3547">TS</a>]
00:59:12 ◼ ► the setting screens and trying to find everything that I could but I was not surprised [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3552">TS</a>]
00:59:16 ◼ ► when I discovered that no full justification is still the abomination that we all have to live with you have to let you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3556">TS</a>]
00:59:23 ◼ ► have that confidential exclusive but that the people in charge of it don't. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3563">TS</a>]
00:59:29 ◼ ► Well knowing about it or don't care about it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3569">TS</a>]
00:59:31 ◼ ► Well here's the thing what could have been yeah it could have been some technical reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3571">TS</a>]
00:59:37 ◼ ► but it could have been some technical reason which is which is totally understandable. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3577">TS</a>]
00:59:42 ◼ ► But there you are saying is the new information the it's a big exclusive what you've been told in the car park here is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3582">TS</a>]
00:59:47 ◼ ► there's not a technical or commercial reason that is that is correct [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3587">TS</a>]
00:59:52 ◼ ► but I think this is interesting to me because it is it is confirmation that like I said before you have to try this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3592">TS</a>]
01:00:00 ◼ ► I feel it about like what is what is going on inside another entity what are their reasons for yelling something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3600">TS</a>]
01:00:07 ◼ ► and this is confirmation to me about a certain aspect of that. Yes there are forces at play here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3607">TS</a>]
01:00:13 ◼ ► There are forces at play here is just indifference. OK how is that is that is that is interesting information. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3613">TS</a>]
01:00:21 ◼ ► And so what I'm going to say now what was also conveyed to me a little bit more than that it was the second meeting of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3621">TS</a>]
01:00:30 ◼ ► Yeah well I was I was planning on doing more with this at some point in the future [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3630">TS</a>]
01:00:34 ◼ ► but I will just mention it now is that Amazon. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3634">TS</a>]
01:00:38 ◼ ► There can be faults of them as a company [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3638">TS</a>]
01:00:40 ◼ ► but one thing that they are quite good at is being relatively sensitive to their customer service I get is pretty good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3640">TS</a>]
01:00:47 ◼ ► compared to most other companies and that is that is always kind of a Jeff Bezos. Make the customer happy rallying cry. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3647">TS</a>]
01:00:55 ◼ ► Yeah I just read that his not his autobiography [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3655">TS</a>]
01:00:59 ◼ ► but the biography that was written about him the everything so it was interesting. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3659">TS</a>]
01:01:03 ◼ ► But it was conveyed to me that basically the customer service people will report feature requests [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3663">TS</a>]
01:01:13 ◼ ► when people call in to complain about stuff on their various Kindles. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3673">TS</a>]
01:01:18 ◼ ► So I am going to put some contact information in the show notes of this episode [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3678">TS</a>]
01:01:24 ◼ ► and if you are in America so that you can call the Amazon Kindle customer support please call them if you are on my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3684">TS</a>]
01:01:32 ◼ ► side and let them know that you are dissatisfied with the horrific type hogger fee of the Amazon Kindle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3692">TS</a>]
01:01:39 ◼ ► and that you would love it if they would consider adding left alignment as one of the options to the text. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3699">TS</a>]
01:01:46 ◼ ► So I'm going to put that information in the show notes if you are on board with me on this one. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3706">TS</a>]
01:01:50 ◼ ► I would absolutely love it if you called [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3710">TS</a>]
01:01:53 ◼ ► and made that request so that is something else that I would just like to put out there in the universe. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3713">TS</a>]
01:02:00 ◼ ► I on the other hand would prefer you support Asia yet you know the varieties it can I can I ask you a question just to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3720">TS</a>]
01:02:08 ◼ ► make sure I understand something probably yes. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3728">TS</a>]
01:02:11 ◼ ► Coming back to this small number of publishers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3731">TS</a>]
01:02:14 ◼ ► and left justify the text you know if the good citizens who you want to kiss. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3734">TS</a>]
01:02:20 ◼ ► but I should have said book authors I think is is really the case I think whoever is typesetting that particular book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3740">TS</a>]
01:02:28 ◼ ► and I had to manually set it to be left justified is that is it is one or the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3748">TS</a>]
01:02:33 ◼ ► or is this something you can toggle between. That's what I'm not understanding you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3753">TS</a>]
01:02:37 ◼ ► You have no choice over how the text is displayed either way you can say OK this is left justified [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3757">TS</a>]
01:02:44 ◼ ► but if I press this button here the whole book will become. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3764">TS</a>]
01:02:46 ◼ ► Yeah they're all there is there is no way to on left justify it you know not what you want for some reason you you are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3766">TS</a>]
01:02:53 ◼ ► desirous of a vastly inferior reading experience [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3773">TS</a>]
01:02:56 ◼ ► and you have received as beautifully typeset book you can't press the button to turn it back into the horrible normal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3776">TS</a>]
01:03:01 ◼ ► way which you know you know you maybe you want that and I think there should be an option to do that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3781">TS</a>]
01:03:08 ◼ ► So yes anyway that that is kind of what the main thing about the Kindle that I want to say is that I was hopeful [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/3788">TS</a>]

01:15:35 ◼ ► This combined with around corners makes it feel even cheaper [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4535">TS</a>]
01:15:40 ◼ ► but I think the thing that to me drags it from not great design into what I would say is fugly territory is the antenna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4540">TS</a>]
01:15:52 ◼ ► bands around the top and the bottom line here and say them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4552">TS</a>]

01:16:02 ◼ ► when I saw it in person it was worse than I would have ever imagined it is so hideous to look at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4562">TS</a>]
01:16:11 ◼ ► Actually handling the phone is everyone was complaining that the camera lens is separate is a little bit elevated from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4571">TS</a>]

01:16:25 ◼ ► Honestly there's no big deal at all but that is the one thing on the phone where everybody was worried about that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4585">TS</a>]
01:16:30 ◼ ► and I look at that thing. Doesn't matter at all this is I make a final picture saying I'm looking for more pictures. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4590">TS</a>]
01:16:35 ◼ ► Yeah Apple tries to hide that bulge on their their promo page [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4595">TS</a>]
01:16:39 ◼ ► when they're out there which I think is not entirely an honest way to represent it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4599">TS</a>]
01:16:43 ◼ ► but the camera bold if you are listening to this punk ass [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4603">TS</a>]

01:16:51 ◼ ► and doesn't matter at all as I thought it was going to be ugly. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4611">TS</a>]
01:16:53 ◼ ► Doesn't make a difference the thing that I could not believe is that those antenna spaces of the lines on the top [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4613">TS</a>]
01:17:03 ◼ ► If you run your finger over it you can clearly feel the seam between the back and that antenna space [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4623">TS</a>]
01:17:10 ◼ ► and it is slightly elevated from the rest of the back and it is clearly plastic. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4630">TS</a>]
01:17:17 ◼ ► So already the back feels cheaper with and and then you run your finger across the top of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/4637">TS</a>]

01:32:22 ◼ ► OK so some point in the presentation they unveiled the wearable we'd all been waiting for. Yes that's right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5542">TS</a>]
01:32:29 ◼ ► But the apple watch not to the i Watch yet have you know watch which is going to be hard to say I will I will try what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5549">TS</a>]
01:32:35 ◼ ► was what was your immediate impression before we get into the nuts and bolts of the day for analysis. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5555">TS</a>]
01:32:40 ◼ ► OK so my very first thought was I was honestly disappointed it was a watch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5560">TS</a>]
01:32:46 ◼ ► and this is partly because of the eight I don't know if I'll be able to find it for the show notes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5566">TS</a>]
01:32:50 ◼ ► but there was a Tim Cook interview at All Things D. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5570">TS</a>]

01:33:01 ◼ ► Jim Cook clearly refused to talk about watches in particular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5581">TS</a>]
01:33:06 ◼ ► and instead was talking about sensor technology in general. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5586">TS</a>]
01:33:10 ◼ ► He was and is that there's a lot of things that are going on in the world of sensors and this is entirely true. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5590">TS</a>]
01:33:16 ◼ ► If you follow technology there's a bunch of stuff that's happening right now with making sense there is much more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5596">TS</a>]
01:33:22 ◼ ► ubiquitous and much more cheap and this is why there's this big push about recording Health Statistics [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5602">TS</a>]
01:33:27 ◼ ► and recording all kinds of stuff because it's getting really cheap to put sensors everywhere [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5607">TS</a>]
01:33:32 ◼ ► and so I was kind of hoping that Apple would have a different something different then a watch kind of based on his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5612">TS</a>]
01:33:39 ◼ ► reaction or his description of things in that particular interview. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5619">TS</a>]
01:33:44 ◼ ► when it was revealed of the watch my initial reaction was oh I was kind of hoping I don't know what they would have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5624">TS</a>]
01:33:49 ◼ ► but some sort of in a band with a bunch of sensors built in or you know who knows what they're going to do. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5629">TS</a>]
01:33:55 ◼ ► Yeah so that was my initial reaction was I was a bit like. An original. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5635">TS</a>]
01:34:03 ◼ ► but if you're asking for my initial thought it was a little bit of disappointment because I was thinking maybe it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5643">TS</a>]
01:34:09 ◼ ► something I haven't thought of and then it's a watch. But that was that was very fleeting. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5649">TS</a>]
01:34:13 ◼ ► I was that was just my initial reaction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5653">TS</a>]
01:34:16 ◼ ► and then it's like OK well Apple now show me show me in your apple the way this thing that you have made. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5656">TS</a>]

01:34:47 ◼ ► I'm completely underwhelmed and really underwhelmed and I've not seen it in real life and I've not seen on a hand. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5687">TS</a>]
01:34:54 ◼ ► Yeah I don't think anybody seen it in real or the people who were there have seen a real man it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5694">TS</a>]

01:35:20 ◼ ► So you look at you look at the poppy design and you think that's not something that you would wear. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5720">TS</a>]
01:35:24 ◼ ► Yes I am because I am intrigued by the digital crown. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/5724">TS</a>]

01:40:07 ◼ ► Is Apple going to be able to convince me to swap my current watch for the Apple Watch. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6007">TS</a>]
01:40:14 ◼ ► So either as I'm watching it Apple has to be clear they have a very early announce this you know that they have said it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6014">TS</a>]
01:40:21 ◼ ► is available for sale early twenty fifteen which knowing Apple they'll push back until summer twenty fifteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6021">TS</a>]
01:40:29 ◼ ► and say oh we meant the first half of the summer you know. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6029">TS</a>]
01:40:33 ◼ ► So it can be quite a long time before the fact this thing actually comes out which resulted in some parts of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6033">TS</a>]
01:40:39 ◼ ► presentation being a bit vague. Yes And so one of the key ones which is I couldn't resist from mentioning on Twitter. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6039">TS</a>]
01:40:48 ◼ ► Well Apple the longer you don't tell me about the battery life of the shorter I'm going to assume this battery life is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6048">TS</a>]
01:40:56 ◼ ► and I may that is kind of a joke but then I was pretty surprised [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6056">TS</a>]
01:41:00 ◼ ► when they ended they finished talking about the watch and they never mention the battery life once. Yeah. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6060">TS</a>]
01:41:06 ◼ ► Does this last forty five minutes how long does how long does this watch do I have to just have a plug in all the time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6066">TS</a>]
01:41:13 ◼ ► Is it possible they don't know yet is it possible they're trying to invent some new battery in the next six months. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6073">TS</a>]
01:41:18 ◼ ► Yeah I mean this is one of the things I foresee [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6078">TS</a>]
01:41:20 ◼ ► when we're recording this that we mentioned before that the usual Apple pod cast crew you know grouper and A.T.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6080">TS</a>]
01:41:27 ◼ ► I don't I haven't listened to any of their shows that are out so this might be the section on the watch might be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6087">TS</a>]
01:41:33 ◼ ► horrifically uninformed because I don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6093">TS</a>]
01:41:35 ◼ ► but if they found out any of the details I have listened to eighty page first one on the watch. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6095">TS</a>]
01:41:40 ◼ ► Nothing about actually came out and I'm going to have a listen to their latest. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6100">TS</a>]
01:41:43 ◼ ► Yeah I think it just came out with one this morning. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6103">TS</a>]
01:41:45 ◼ ► So there may be more details now but I know I don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6105">TS</a>]
01:41:49 ◼ ► and my guess is it is very possible given how early they are announcing this that Apple doesn't actually have a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6109">TS</a>]
01:41:54 ◼ ► realistic X. Doesn't have a realistic idea of what the battery life actually will. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6114">TS</a>]
01:42:01 ◼ ► but they hinted very strongly in the presentation that it will need to be they will need to be charged every night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6121">TS</a>]
01:42:08 ◼ ► and they have their very nicely designed charger for it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6128">TS</a>]
01:42:10 ◼ ► But this is this is strike one because I have already have so many devices that I need to charge every night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6130">TS</a>]
01:42:21 ◼ ► and on my checklist is a couple of things I want to make sure are plugged in at night so that when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6141">TS</a>]
01:42:27 ◼ ► when I start the next day everything is fresh and going you know I'm starting to even fall out of love with politics. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6147">TS</a>]
01:42:35 ◼ ► Yes this is what we talked about as the frustration and that thing is maybe you know once a week or you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6155">TS</a>]
01:42:41 ◼ ► but I mean devices that I have to charge every night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6161">TS</a>]
01:42:43 ◼ ► and what I need to make sure our charging is one obviously the phone here too. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6163">TS</a>]
01:42:50 ◼ ► I use my i Pad as my primary computer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6170">TS</a>]
01:42:53 ◼ ► and so I have to make sure that my i Pad is charged in because often I just grab it in the morning and then I go out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6173">TS</a>]
01:42:58 ◼ ► and I'm working wherever in the day and maybe I have access to electric socket maybe I don't. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6178">TS</a>]
01:43:03 ◼ ► So I need to make sure that that thing is charged [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6183">TS</a>]
01:43:05 ◼ ► and then secondly I have this pair of bluetooth headphones that I adore that I totally love the Jaybird X bluetooth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6185">TS</a>]
01:43:15 ◼ ► headphones they are amazing they're the best bluetooth headphones I've ever used. Jaybird feel free to get in touch. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6195">TS</a>]
01:43:23 ◼ ► If you can keep track and everyone but but but they have to be charged every night. Yeah. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6203">TS</a>]
01:43:31 ◼ ► So there are three things that at minimum have to be charged every night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6211">TS</a>]
01:43:35 ◼ ► and then in addition to that I have my Fitbit and my Kindle which need to be basically charged on a weekly basis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6215">TS</a>]
01:43:42 ◼ ► and I have a reminder for that as well as like this is getting to be a bunch of things. And as dumb as it sounds. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6222">TS</a>]
01:43:51 ◼ ► It's like the difficulty of this is exponential it doesn't seem like adding one more is a pain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6231">TS</a>]
01:43:56 ◼ ► but it's much more trouble than you would expect because there's also the cable. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6236">TS</a>]
01:44:00 ◼ ► Management So this is one more cable that I'd have to pack with it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6240">TS</a>]
01:44:04 ◼ ► and I was traveling so I already have three hundred able to totally agree with the Fitbit cable I have a lightning [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6244">TS</a>]
01:44:10 ◼ ► cable and then I have a micro U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6250">TS</a>]
01:44:12 ◼ ► and I'll tell you I keep getting terrified that one of my devices is going to be out of sync with that micro U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6252">TS</a>]
01:44:18 ◼ ► Kindle Voyager I'm looking at you right I was trying to find on the web page. They said oh it charges by U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6258">TS</a>]
01:44:24 ◼ ► Yes white U.S.B. Kindle I don't want to end up having to have two U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6264">TS</a>]
01:44:29 ◼ ► Cable so this is this is immediately a kind of strike against the watchers like you are going to be a hassle with this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6269">TS</a>]
01:44:37 ◼ ► with this Contin I counter so battery power electricity issue I'm right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6277">TS</a>]
01:44:43 ◼ ► but the thing the thing with technology is the real question is what benefit does it provide. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6283">TS</a>]
01:44:49 ◼ ► Because I'm willing to charge it charge up all the things that I currently have because the benefit they provide me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6289">TS</a>]
01:44:54 ◼ ► outweighs the hassle of the charging I get says it like this is how the universe works [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6294">TS</a>]
01:44:58 ◼ ► and so now as a sale I don't know if that's one of the fundamental laws of the I believe you have the four fundamental [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6298">TS</a>]
01:45:07 ◼ ► OK And then after that there is technology growth is exponential [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6307">TS</a>]
01:45:12 ◼ ► and then immediately after that it is the benefit a device provides you is greater than the hassle of charging it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6312">TS</a>]
01:45:21 ◼ ► It's governed by greater confidence that's fixed so that this another watch trying to sell me on its utility yet so I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6321">TS</a>]
01:45:28 ◼ ► watching this presentation with this in mind. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6328">TS</a>]
01:45:31 ◼ ► Now another strike against the watch for me in particular is I'm looking at I think OK what does it do. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6331">TS</a>]
01:45:37 ◼ ► And at least as they present it right now it does some interesting fitness tracking stuff which is great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6337">TS</a>]
01:45:45 ◼ ► but I already use my Fitbit for that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6345">TS</a>]
01:45:47 ◼ ► and my Fitbit is going to outcompete the watch because my Fitbit also does silent alarms which I use in the morning to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6347">TS</a>]
01:45:56 ◼ ► sometimes wake up without disturbing my wife so I can cook. That's my pajamas and wake up. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6356">TS</a>]
01:46:02 ◼ ► And well the watch can't do that because the watch is going to have to be charging overnight. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6362">TS</a>]
01:46:06 ◼ ► Hello you haven't won on fitness tracking here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6366">TS</a>]
01:46:10 ◼ ► and then the rest of a large portion of the thing that the watch can do I would say are related to communication [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6370">TS</a>]
01:46:20 ◼ ► Yeah so the watch has to be connected to your phone for most things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6380">TS</a>]
01:46:26 ◼ ► and it will display notifications from your phone on the watch face [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6386">TS</a>]
01:46:30 ◼ ► when I give you the hassle of taking your embarrassing ugly I fancy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6390">TS</a>]
01:46:34 ◼ ► I would've thought that was a big deal until I saw how hideous the i Phone six was and maybe that's Apple's plan right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6394">TS</a>]
01:46:41 ◼ ► We're going to make this i Phone so ugly everybody wants an i Watch or an apple watch. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6401">TS</a>]
01:46:46 ◼ ► Did you hide it doesn't have to see the light of day [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6406">TS</a>]
01:46:50 ◼ ► and it's some kind of cave troll in your pocket that is doing all this grunt work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6410">TS</a>]
01:46:55 ◼ ► and the beautiful I watch can actually if you're going to have a face of your communication that we that we are. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6415">TS</a>]
01:47:03 ◼ ► So as you have been frustrated with sometimes the number of notifications I receive on my phone to begin with is almost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6423">TS</a>]
01:47:10 ◼ ► zero. I actually look through my phone the other day. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6430">TS</a>]
01:47:13 ◼ ► That's kind of curious to see how many things have I actually allowed access to notification. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6433">TS</a>]
01:47:18 ◼ ► And it is basically three or four apps at most. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6438">TS</a>]
01:47:22 ◼ ► Yeah messages can make my phone beep Omni Focus can make my phone beep if the navigation is on that can make my phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6442">TS</a>]
01:47:32 ◼ ► And that has to be easily easily be ninety five percent of the notifications I ever receive on my phone. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6452">TS</a>]
01:47:39 ◼ ► To top it off to make it worse I use the Do Not Disturb feature to even disallow those notifications every day starting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6459">TS</a>]
01:47:48 ◼ ► at nine pm at night and continuing to one P.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6468">TS</a>]
01:47:52 ◼ ► The following day so there's only even an eight hour window in which my phone can theoretically beep to begin with. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6472">TS</a>]
01:48:01 ◼ ► Notifications for me with this watch also is not like I am not sold on this because it is not something that I use to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6481">TS</a>]
01:48:09 ◼ ► know if I have a phone or a vein to get stuck on a ledge. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6489">TS</a>]
01:48:12 ◼ ► You're the last person I'm going to call for help I should you should know by now that I am not the person to call if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6492">TS</a>]
01:48:17 ◼ ► you need help with things. I will help you but it has to be asynchronous and cannot be immediate. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6497">TS</a>]
01:48:26 ◼ ► That's exactly right that's exactly what you let me know a month in advance about something I might possibly be there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6506">TS</a>]
01:48:31 ◼ ► if you need something at seven thirty in the morning you better be calling somebody else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6511">TS</a>]
01:48:37 ◼ ► or have access to your bit so the world is all about notifications [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6517">TS</a>]
01:48:46 ◼ ► and you feel like you don't need a whole lot of notifying Basically I have almost no use for notifications as it is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6526">TS</a>]
01:48:52 ◼ ► the watch doesn't sell me on that future either. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6532">TS</a>]
01:48:54 ◼ ► Now I don't think it is fair to say that the watch is all about notifications because again Apple is a little bit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6534">TS</a>]
01:48:59 ◼ ► and clear and exactly what the capabilities are again because maybe they don't know precisely themselves [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6539">TS</a>]
01:49:06 ◼ ► but there were definitely some cool things with regards to ways to communicate with other people who have Apple watches. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6546">TS</a>]
01:49:14 ◼ ► There's a way to tap the screen of the Apple Watch to make somebody else's Apple Watch vibrate very slightly. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6554">TS</a>]
01:49:19 ◼ ► And I thought oh this is an interesting and different form of communication. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6559">TS</a>]
01:49:25 ◼ ► And one thing that I did think was very cool was doing walking navigations with a watch. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6565">TS</a>]
01:49:32 ◼ ► So if you set a destination you know I want to walk from here to the royal Royal Albert Hall the watch will do that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6572">TS</a>]
01:49:39 ◼ ► navigation. But by using a vibration feedback on your wrist so you don't need to look at it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6579">TS</a>]
01:49:45 ◼ ► I don't know exactly what the mechanism is but they said it's different vibrations for whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6585">TS</a>]
01:49:49 ◼ ► or not you're supposed to turn left or right or go straight at an intersection and I thought that is great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6589">TS</a>]
01:49:55 ◼ ► and that is a feature that I can totally see using because sometimes when my wife and I are walking around play. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6595">TS</a>]
01:50:01 ◼ ► I do want to keep track and make sure that we're going towards a particular place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6601">TS</a>]
01:50:06 ◼ ► but I don't want to have my headphones in for the Bluetooth navigation you know while we're just relaxing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6606">TS</a>]
01:50:13 ◼ ► and so I thought hey I can easily see on a vacation doing something like setting the walking directions to the hotel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6613">TS</a>]
01:50:22 ◼ ► and then I would just always have a sense of am I walking towards [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6622">TS</a>]
01:50:25 ◼ ► or away from the hotel kind of ambient awareness of where is the hotel in relation to me. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6625">TS</a>]
01:50:32 ◼ ► I'm not totally sounds a bit weird to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6632">TS</a>]
01:50:34 ◼ ► but still if my watch vibrated to tell me to turn left I'd still want a visual map. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6634">TS</a>]
01:50:40 ◼ ► But for reassurance I'm not sure I'm going to just find that out. Now they're well not too new for me. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6640">TS</a>]
01:50:47 ◼ ► I'm just I'm just trying to like run through as an action is presentational what might I possibly do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6647">TS</a>]
01:50:53 ◼ ► and that was one thing that jumped in mind immediately and then I could use walking directions to either my wife [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6653">TS</a>]
01:50:59 ◼ ► and I are going someplace and I want to make sure that we're headed in the right direction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6659">TS</a>]
01:51:02 ◼ ► and we're just walking around we're not in the car [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6662">TS</a>]
01:51:05 ◼ ► or this kind of I want to pin a location to be ambient Lea aware of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6665">TS</a>]
01:51:10 ◼ ► when I'm just exploring the kinds of things I was thinking of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6670">TS</a>]
01:51:14 ◼ ► but that is that's not a feature that that that sells me on this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6674">TS</a>]
01:51:18 ◼ ► So I think it's coming pretty clear to the conclusion that the Apple Watch does not in that presentation have anything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6678">TS</a>]
01:51:26 ◼ ► that would make me think oh I have to go out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6686">TS</a>]
01:51:28 ◼ ► and buy this I can't think what it looks like he sort of hinted at a thing that presentable face of the i Phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6688">TS</a>]
01:51:34 ◼ ► but I think it suffers from that same rounded childlike goofiness that the i Phone six is suffering from. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6694">TS</a>]
01:51:43 ◼ ► I don't I don't actually like her looks that much I think it is. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6703">TS</a>]
01:51:48 ◼ ► It reaches the heights of OK I think it looks OK It doesn't look great it doesn't look awful. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6708">TS</a>]
01:52:03 ◼ ► but it's sickness still gives it away as you are wearing a tiny computer on your wrist and you are a nerd. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6723">TS</a>]
01:52:13 ◼ ► I own they have a lot of the different bands which do look like they put a lot of time in there and they're great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BgMWG43oY/6733">TS</a>]
