0:01:19i'm at the the north end of the house

0:01:24and so I get that my office gets a does

0:01:28not get the sunlight and then I've that

0:01:30makes the difference you know what its

0:01:39usually it's about the same all year

0:01:41round i would say my office is up in the

0:01:44what is was the Attic it's reef is a

0:01:47finished attic and it is it was boiling

0:01:50on the summer and freezing cold in the

0:01:52winter and there's like there's like

0:01:55three days on either you know where

0:01:57those to meet where it's decent so kind

0:02:01of screwed

0:02:02it's a great place you later the

0:02:04boiling-hot part is a particularly nice

0:02:06place to have a bunch of computer

0:02:07equipment

0:02:09that's very good it's good for the

0:02:11equipment really yeah yeah everything

0:02:13I've know about computers it's very very

0:02:15good for them to be and and be subject

0:02:18to where you know wild temperature

0:02:19changes wire wires and things love that

0:02:26so I'm looking forward to thursday

0:02:31yeah I will be flying out tomorrow we're

0:02:34recording on Tuesday show will air i'll

0:02:36probably posted from an airplane

0:02:38tomorrow i'm sure that will work

0:02:39perfectly well and then i will be there

0:02:50on Thursday i'm excited i feel like i

0:02:52feel like this is a good one because we

0:02:53don't we don't know what the hell is

0:02:54going on really no not really not really

0:02:56i mean there's been there's been some

0:02:58rumors about the the new macbook pro

0:03:01right after the only thing I know about

0:03:02though

0:03:03yeah I feel like everything else is sort

0:03:05of unknown you know like there are

0:03:07rumors that there's going to be a new

0:03:09another new we'll get to all this detail

0:03:11but there's rumors that there's going to

0:03:12be another in addition to the macbook

0:03:14pro 13-inch macbook of some sort whether

0:03:17this is an updated air whether it's a

0:03:19new 13-inch regular retina macbook which

0:03:23makes no sense to me

0:03:24we don't know yeah but i'm in the market

0:03:30are you really yeah because my macbook

0:03:34air is a 2012 10 so that's that's good

0:03:37timing

0:03:38yeah so yes this is really exciting for

0:03:39you yeah i mean i was thinking that

0:03:41maybe I would get this year's macbook

0:03:43when I came out the spring but obviously

0:03:45that wasn't quite not big enough

0:03:49update it's a beautiful little machine

0:03:51it yeah so nice it really is the most

0:03:54beautiful mac that Apple's ever made

0:03:56every time i see at the apple store and

0:03:57I just you know I told you and I told

0:03:59you but if you listen to the show but

0:04:01whoever the guests for the last few

0:04:03weeks that we had a word problem with

0:04:05Amy's Apple watch where the bank him

0:04:07often and we went right and I picked it

0:04:09up and I've been in the apple store a

0:04:12lot recently and every time I walk by i

0:04:13always think god damn that's a nice

0:04:15little laptop yeah

0:04:18and you with your feelings on the

0:04:21keyboard

0:04:23I could live with it i'm def a'ight I'd

0:04:25I haven't spent significant time like i

0:04:27never got like a review unit of the

0:04:29regular macbook so I've never spent like

0:04:31a significant amount of time on it but

0:04:33I'm sure that i could get used to it

0:04:35anything that has actual physical keys

0:04:37i'm sure i could get used to I think you

0:04:38in the hypothetical future where they go

0:04:41to some kind of touchscreen like surface

0:04:43for the keyboard to make it even thinner

0:04:45i might have a serious problem then but

0:04:48yeah I'm going to have a problem with

0:04:49that tail up until that point i'm sure i

0:04:51could get used to it because I like I do

0:04:54like and it's you know it's funny

0:04:55because I'd like a real old-fashioned

0:04:57mechanical keyboard right but that's

0:04:59just what I prefer so anything less than

0:05:01that is it's you know fine it's it's not

0:05:05what I prefer but it's fine

0:05:06yeah yeah I think I think for me the via

0:05:09the baseline is some motion but the

0:05:14glass is not it's not really gonna cut

0:05:16it i was i was at a tremor I think this

0:05:19was when Hank broke the screen of his

0:05:21iphone 6s yes success and over the

0:05:28summer we went in there and one of the

0:05:30genes that was helping me was typing on

0:05:33her iPad and just like I mean look like

0:05:3665-70 words a minute and it was crazy

0:05:39you do that I guess you know maybe

0:05:44people maybe people now you know the

0:05:46kids these days maybe coming up learning

0:05:49how to type on glass screens much faster

0:05:51the weekend

0:05:52yeah I've spoken to some people at Apple

0:05:54have said and this is like from a couple

0:05:56years ago that yes that you know and and

0:05:59like in the interim since i've had this

0:06:02discussion with people at Apple they've

0:06:04come out with the the smart keyboard

0:06:06cover for ipad which has physical moving

0:06:08Keys so it's not like they're saying hey

0:06:10you know we don't need physical moving

0:06:12Keys but that you know don't understand

0:06:15if you say you can't type on an iPad

0:06:17don't don't assume that means everybody

0:06:18can't type and the younger it goes the

0:06:20more you know the more natural it seems

0:06:22because it's just what they grew up with

0:06:24ya now in your you're missing a thumb

0:06:27right

0:06:28yes that is correct so i would think

0:06:29that's even harder

0:06:31and am I left my life I mean it's that

0:06:34mrs. there it's just kinda hanging on by

0:06:36a thread right exactly you know where it

0:06:39is i do have I did suffer an injury and

0:06:44I don't know what happened my left ring

0:06:46finger feels like the the first knuckle

0:06:50I at least come dummies when I was in my

0:06:55spy high school basketball like you get

0:06:57a dummy finger-like so your finger

0:06:58wasn't broken didn't have a broken bone

0:07:00but we couldn't feel it now but you know

0:07:02like you haven't ya and basketball

0:07:04happens all the time you catch up all

0:07:05the wrong way but if it you know you it

0:07:08would swell up at the knuckle real bad

0:07:10ok and you wouldn't be able to like flex

0:07:13it all the way but you know you could

0:07:14like tape it up and it be alright it's

0:07:18just one of those little things when you

0:07:19get old and stuff doesn't heal quickly

0:07:22like I don't know what happened but I

0:07:24know it was over summer though because i

0:07:25know that i noticed it when my family

0:07:27was on vacation in this so this was like

0:07:29early August and I was like I don't know

0:07:31what the heck I did like if I jammed it

0:07:33on a door or what the heck i did but i

0:07:34noticed i woke up one morning my left

0:07:36index finger was swollen and hurt like

0:07:39small enough that I wouldn't be able to

0:07:40get my wedding ring off you know i still

0:07:42can

0:07:43and now it's the end I looked over yeah

0:07:45still can't and it's alert a little bit

0:07:47and it seems like the sort of thing like

0:07:50when I was like 17 like you I could stay

0:07:52it would be injured ten times worse like

0:07:54like a golf ball swollen and three days

0:07:57later would be back to normal

0:07:59you really like me in trouble you're

0:08:02gonna be trouble in trouble with Amy

0:08:03lesia get the jaws of life out here

0:08:08you realize if you do realize i realize

0:08:10as as I rock it through been into deeper

0:08:13into my forties that when you're a young

0:08:14person you really are sort of your sort

0:08:17of like halfway to like being like

0:08:18wolverine if you don't appreciate it at

0:08:23the time but as you get over you

0:08:25definitely don't appreciate it

0:08:28yeah yeah I find I found that I like I'm

0:08:31you know a bit older than you but i

0:08:32bruise i get these bruises now and they

0:08:35don't they just like stick around for

0:08:37like a month they were hurt or anything

0:08:40but it's like where it had that happen

0:08:42and.and what I want to go away i have

0:08:46the same thing I will occasionally pick

0:08:47up a bruise like on the back of my elbow

0:08:50right and it's like I don't remember it

0:08:53hitting anything I don't get something

0:08:54happens while asleep and they don't

0:08:58don't go away like they just gonna roll

0:09:00over too fast and boom I got a bruise

0:09:06so what do we know we did alright so

0:09:08what's coming at this event the matter

0:09:11of prose is the guarantee right that's I

0:09:15guess the one thing that we've seen some

0:09:17pictures of him there have been fairly

0:09:19hefty rumors about ya German I think

0:09:22maybe gets credit for breaking at first

0:09:24with this they're replacing the f keys

0:09:26above the keyboard with some kind of

0:09:27some kind of touchscreen I don't know

0:09:30somebody at some point somebody says

0:09:33it's an oled I don't know if that's true

0:09:35or not that will tie into the next

0:09:40discussion about the we called the

0:09:42google pixel that I that I got last week

0:09:43because i gotta tell you i still even

0:09:46though people say they like this pixel

0:09:48display I still don't like the colors on

0:09:50an oled display but that over like

0:09:51that's neither here nor there right now

0:09:54some kind of touchscreen strip and the

0:09:58idea would be that it's therefore

0:10:00because its software you could you know

0:10:02if photoshop could put like a bunch of

0:10:04tools up there or presumably you know

0:10:06maybe like you know a word processor

0:10:09could put style stuff you could just

0:10:13like a bowl button or something like

0:10:15that

0:10:15yeah I don't know so 13-inch 15-inch

0:10:19macbook pros they're supposed to be

0:10:21thinner and then there is a case leaking

0:10:23did you see this thing there's somebody

0:10:25in China leaked a like the top of the

0:10:31case or the unibody enclosure and I

0:10:33think according to the leak

0:10:37it's like it's got four USB seaports

0:10:40like 21 inside still has a headphone

0:10:42jack and then that's it

0:10:44so no more USB ports USB a is the the

0:10:48traditional big sort of rectangular

0:10:50rectangular one yeah USB port that we've

0:10:53known and loved since the imac

0:10:551998a so no more USB a ports and no more

0:11:01s SD card slot

0:11:05no more what else is the macbook pro

0:11:07have I think it has hdmi right i guess

0:11:11so i think hdmi is the one the one that

0:11:13I'm always trying to plug something into

0:11:15it and it doesn't work so that's the

0:11:21rumor and that's probably true but

0:11:23because it sounds right to me

0:11:25yeah yeah it makes it that makes some

0:11:28sense and I you know I been using a

0:11:34macbook air for years but if it's

0:11:36thinner i might go back to the 13-inch

0:11:39macbook pro yeah hdmi there is on the

0:11:42current one power to USB the heck is

0:11:49that one so i think i don't know how

0:11:53this is that some of the stuff that I

0:11:55feel like I'm getting old them out of

0:11:57date on some of this stuff so it us bc i

0:12:01know based on the retina macbook that

0:12:04you can use USBC for lots of stuff so it

0:12:07you know the retina macbook has one port

0:12:10it's USBC it uses its charge and it uses

0:12:13it to connect to a display and it uses

0:12:15it because you can do like a thunderbolt

0:12:18over us bc and it uses it obviously to

0:12:23connect any USB peripherals you wanted

0:12:25to connect to like so if if this new

0:12:28macbook pro he only has four USB

0:12:30seaports then if you wanted to like plug

0:12:34it into power and plug in a peripheral

0:12:36and plug it into a display would you be

0:12:38able to use any of these ports to plug

0:12:39the display into or is there going to be

0:12:41like what this is the you know you got

0:12:42to use this top left one for the display

0:12:44that's a good question i would think

0:12:47you'd be able to use any of them but I

0:12:48don't you know in the past that some of

0:12:50them have been differences in the USB

0:12:52ports like some of them have different

0:12:53at different power output

0:12:57yeah I don't know and how would they

0:12:59differentiate it seems very unhappily

0:13:01like to to require you to remember that

0:13:03these four PS that look the same

0:13:05actually are different i mean i guess

0:13:08what they could do is is print like a

0:13:10little I don't know some kind of little

0:13:12icon next to the one that you know but

0:13:16that doesn't seem right seems like you

0:13:17should be able to use any of them for

0:13:18anything but I don't know if

0:13:19electronically that works out I don't

0:13:21know

0:13:22yeah i'm gonna guess that's it yeah it

0:13:26is that's just part of the the is Apple

0:13:30doing the lightning or not the Lightning

0:13:32DM what's the line what does USBC have

0:13:43the Thunderbolt in it

0:13:46yes yeah but I mean but is that Apple's

0:13:48doing is that the USBC and standard I

0:13:50think it's the USB standard forget as

0:13:52something something to do with intel

0:13:54okay well then then I don't know why

0:13:56they wouldn't all have it right

0:13:58i-i-i it sounds like good update to me I

0:14:05i don't know i mean and suppose you know

0:14:08the whole thing is going to be thinner

0:14:09presumably one of the reasons they're

0:14:11getting rid of us ba is just because it

0:14:16by today's standards that's a big fat

0:14:17port i'm not saying that the device is

0:14:20actually on the device is obviously not

0:14:21going to be no matter how thin it is

0:14:24it's not going to be so thin that they

0:14:25couldn't put a USB a port in but i think

0:14:28it you know you could I think it's

0:14:30probably going to be thin enough for us

0:14:31ba would look ugly

0:14:32yeah and you know we all know that most

0:14:35important thing when you buy computers

0:14:37making sure that the port's look nice

0:14:39vga is gonna be a vga port there will be

0:14:45a dongle for be too big and I've always

0:14:49been a little rice the vga port I've

0:14:51even used it I have you know i still use

0:14:54some standalone camera so I you know I

0:14:57have SD cards and i have used it you

0:15:00know the SD to SD slot on my macbook pro

0:15:03on occasion I've always thought it was a

0:15:05little surprising that Apple put an SD

0:15:06card slot in the mac book pro

0:15:10just because and it's then you know and

0:15:12I'd I would presume that they could do

0:15:14it on the new one by you know it's

0:15:15certainly a pretty thin little slot it

0:15:17just seems like a non-apple like thing

0:15:19to do though it seems to me like if you

0:15:20want to use a card you know they they

0:15:22want you to be punished by having to use

0:15:24a dongle and i say that i'm being a

0:15:27little facetious but it's just add on

0:15:29Apple's you know really takes the

0:15:31minimalism on these ports to an extreme

0:15:33and adding it SD card slot built-in it's

0:15:36sort of unusual for Apple yeah yeah

0:15:39still on the imac to yeah i use that to

0:15:43I've already said that's my favorite

0:15:45game to play on the imac is plugin yeah

0:15:47well that's the thing yeah and we know

0:15:48on the back of the device that becomes

0:15:51very difficult i've gotten very good at

0:15:52it i've gotten very good at sitting at

0:15:54my desk not being able to see get an SD

0:15:56card list into the into this last night

0:16:00I can't even plug USB he's in the back

0:16:03of mine i tweeted that and a bunch of

0:16:05people I hadn't thought about this

0:16:06because I never owned one of the side

0:16:08loading imax you know before they got

0:16:11the real thin sides that slot was on the

0:16:14side which is in theory the SD card was

0:16:18yeah

0:16:19oh really ok and i miss that they also

0:16:21had CD slots over there though and so

0:16:23apparent a real cop common problem it

0:16:26was a Perry I mean I you wouldn't

0:16:27believe how many organs that he's like

0:16:29yeah that's it everybody played along

0:16:32with my idea that this was a great game

0:16:33and they're like it gets home and it's a

0:16:36good way to lose all of your lives you

0:16:41just tuck it in and the second you let

0:16:43go of it and like you know forget it all

0:16:45the way in you realize what you've done

0:16:47that's terrible and then you got to fish

0:16:49it out ya better had better to have it

0:16:52on the back so yeah macbook pro and and

0:17:04then everything else is just up and hear

0:17:07me

0:17:08yeah so there is there's rumors of a new

0:17:1113-inch model and this is to me where

0:17:13we're being you are in our pundit points

0:17:15because the data macbook pros a little

0:17:17self explanatory but what is this

0:17:1913-inch macbook pro some people are

0:17:21calling it a macbook air

0:17:22in chi kuo of KGI securities or rivers

0:17:27company's called the analyst who gets

0:17:29gets a lot wrong actually

0:17:31philip elmer-dewitt as an interesting

0:17:33scorecard for his like three years of

0:17:35predictions but his iphone stuff is

0:17:37usually spot on

0:17:38yeah usually he gets wrong that the

0:17:40timing right it's not that great on

0:17:42timing any and he's like everybody you

0:17:45know he's really is that not an apple

0:17:49analyst so much as an appellation supply

0:17:51chain analyst like his sources are very

0:17:53clearly it's almost transparent that is

0:17:55sources are from the agent supply chain

0:17:57so he doesn't get things like product

0:17:59marketing because the agent supply chain

0:18:01doesn't know that stuff like that like

0:18:03what's the name of the device going to

0:18:04be they don't know that until the last

0:18:06minute and they start printing it you

0:18:09know on the devices and a string of

0:18:12pricing and stuff like that nobody knows

0:18:14pricing is like the top held secret that

0:18:16Apple like there's only you know bro

0:18:18very seldom leaks because i don't think

0:18:20it ever really leaves you know it from

0:18:22in between like shoulders group and tim

0:18:26cook you know and then

0:18:27well surely jeff williams but you know

0:18:30it's like a top people type thing right

0:18:34and i was making the webpage so he could

0:18:36he's been calling it a macbook air for a

0:18:38while a new 13-inch or maybe he's been

0:18:40calling a macbook I don't know but the

0:18:42idea that they would make a 13-inch

0:18:46macbook like the 12-inch MacBook makes

0:18:48no sense to me like 30 no i don't

0:18:50understand that either I you need like

0:18:53two inches to have a separation that

0:18:56will make sense Lena like oh yeah i can

0:18:59see this 13-inch is sort of like a

0:19:01regular size and 15 inches big and this

0:19:04oh and this 11 inches tiny 12 and 13 or

0:19:07way too close to each other so that

0:19:08doesn't make any sense to me

0:19:10plus it doesn't seem like I mean it

0:19:12seems like it's a little early to to

0:19:14bring out a new macbook right because

0:19:16the current ones only came out i think

0:19:18in April right right right so if your

0:19:22loads so then the speculation is that

0:19:25it's an error right and you know some

0:19:30people have speculated nobody seems to

0:19:31be willing to commit not not in chi

0:19:34quote not German nobody is saying well

0:19:36what kind of display this thing has

0:19:37which is inconspicuous to me because it

0:19:40would like so they're just not

0:19:42mentioning it meaning does it have a

0:19:45Retina display which is certainly what

0:19:47people who are hoping for a retina

0:19:48macbook air hoping for if it doesn't

0:19:51have a Retina display is the display

0:19:53improved at all versus the existing

0:19:56macbook airs because there's things i

0:19:58think like I don't think they're I

0:20:00forget there's certain technical things

0:20:01even if it doesn't go right now that

0:20:03could be improved in the macbook air

0:20:05display like I think like IPS and stuff

0:20:08like that

0:20:08ok I don't know nobody knows that's why

0:20:15it's exciting

0:20:16the idea i guess is that if it needs

0:20:20that I'm a little surprised that they're

0:20:21updating at all

0:20:22I've been under the assumption that the

0:20:25macbook air is only hanging around to

0:20:27occupy price points like a trait that

0:20:29899 that the 11-inch started a 999 13

0:20:32and started at and that there's no other

0:20:34reason for those devices to exist and so

0:20:37that Apple's would just keep selling the

0:20:38old ones as long as keep people keep

0:20:40buying them exactly like the there's

0:20:45still that old macbook pro that has a

0:20:47spinning CD drive that apple sells they

0:20:52don't really advertise it they don't

0:20:54have it out in the apple stores but if

0:20:55you go online you can still buy it that

0:20:59has a CD drive even I think so let me

0:21:02check the port definitely has definitely

0:21:03has a spinning hardly has any hard drive

0:21:06maybe it doesn't mean i think it's just

0:21:07a spinning hard right doesn't doesn't no

0:21:08it does not have a CD drive all right

0:21:10whatever

0:21:11yeah don't have a floppy drive was just

0:21:14behind as if it's got its got swappable

0:21:16bit is but you can take the zip right

0:21:18you can take the zip right about now and

0:21:22putting jazz drive-in is that what hours

0:21:26yeah yeah I got one of those upstairs

0:21:31jazz drive now i don't know i don't have

0:21:35the right idea i have an old our pal gym

0:21:37rank gave me is all done and what is it

0:21:40it's a it's a wall street

0:21:45what was it called powerbook yeah with

0:21:48the put the thing you could pop out i

0:21:50think i just wish that one hand that

0:21:52anyway it's a really old have a really

0:21:54old powerbook upstairs

0:21:56well anyway Apple still sells had some

0:22:02sort of ancient macbook pro that I can't

0:22:04even remember the details of that is

0:22:06only there because people keep buying it

0:22:08yeah i mean i would i would think that

0:22:13now is the time just to be going all

0:22:16retina and they would sweep away that

0:22:21one and then the air but these rumors

0:22:25seem to indicate maybe not

0:22:28there we go it's at the bottom of the

0:22:30macbook pro paige and i lost 1099

0:22:33dollars right so it is a as a 500

0:22:37gigabyte 5400 RPM hard drive so that's

0:22:40what i was thinkin of ya i guess it's

0:22:44like some of these apple products seemed

0:22:46to me like products from the past like I

0:22:50don't I can't imagine like I splurged

0:22:53when i bought the item that is my imac

0:22:55is almost two years old now but that was

0:22:57the last device i've bought where I was

0:23:00maybe possibly even thinking vaguely I

0:23:03might still get a spinning hard drive I

0:23:04thought maybe about because it the

0:23:06upgrade to get like a full one terabyte

0:23:09SSD was seriously expensive but of

0:23:14course i love to spend money so i just

0:23:15got it but it was the last time I even

0:23:17hesitated for a second and thought maybe

0:23:20i should just get the diffusion drive so

0:23:23I you know and I realized as i bought

0:23:25this imac that it will be the last that

0:23:27whatever the previous I back i bought

0:23:29was the last you know I'm never going to

0:23:31buy a spinning hard disk

0:23:32yeah in Thai inside of mac again yeah

0:23:35maybe on external drive you know just

0:23:37for backup or whatever but not inside

0:23:40and I don't think I've ever by person I

0:23:42would never buy another device without a

0:23:44retina screen

0:23:45mhm but yeah and so that's the end

0:23:47that's the other thing that's did the

0:23:48hard drive I would think that now would

0:23:50be a also a good time they probably all

0:23:52this they probably want to because it

0:23:53seems like it's too ubiquitous across

0:23:55several different product lines but to

0:23:57get rid of some dates some

0:23:59soon they need to get rid of the

0:24:00spinning drives fusions not bad fusion

0:24:02works fine but the solely spinning

0:24:05drives or I would never buy one night so

0:24:09the conundrum i see i thought that maybe

0:24:12the air would just stay as it is with it

0:24:15screaming non retina displays and just

0:24:18sit at those price points until the

0:24:20retina macbook could be sold for like

0:24:22999 and then they would just get rid of

0:24:25that there's would just suddenly

0:24:26disappear and be maybe a at whatever

0:24:29point in the future this happens a year

0:24:31old retina macbook that sells it 999 or

0:24:34899 even a newer retina macbook with

0:24:38better specs that sells at 1299 or 1399

0:24:42you know that's what I expected but it's

0:24:46you know based on these rumors it seems

0:24:48as though the air might be sticking

0:24:50around but yeah then is it going to be

0:24:52called a rep macbook air

0:24:53I don't know yeah the macbook starts of

0:24:561,300 bucks so it'll still a little

0:25:00pricey too and I'm not doesn't seem like

0:25:02doesn't seem like they would they could

0:25:04drop just so merrily take three hundred

0:25:06dollars off right now and it only came

0:25:08out in April so that you just wait you

0:25:10know six months later it's a we highly

0:25:12unusual for Apple to drop a product by

0:25:14thirty percent price so yeah whatever it

0:25:17is it's about the commander sent it just

0:25:21doesn't seem possible but then what

0:25:23price would this macbook be this is the

0:25:25problem I see is if it's a retina

0:25:27macbook air

0:25:28what price does it start at because if

0:25:30it starts at nine ninety-nine that seems

0:25:33like a great deal and it doesn't seem

0:25:35preposterous given that there are

0:25:37competing products from other companies

0:25:39you know that have roughly the similar

0:25:41specs like I think like let's just say

0:25:42like a microsoft surface which has you

0:25:46know I think roughly air quality you

0:25:49know the cpu from Intel and has a Retina

0:25:52screen and it's you know as a starting

0:25:54price under a thousand dollars so it's

0:25:57not it's not like I'm you know again you

0:25:59whenever your own show we all would

0:26:01often play let's spend Tim Cook's money

0:26:02we're not just saying let's make it 99

0:26:06you know because worst we're not based

0:26:09on reality it seems like based on on

0:26:11other

0:26:12laptops from other companies that you

0:26:14could do a Retina screen on a 999 device

0:26:19yeah but if they did that who buys you

0:26:22know what that meant to me that makes

0:26:23the the regular macbook at 1299 look too

0:26:27expensive whoo yeah it sure does

0:26:32especially since it's slower and I

0:26:34realized it slower because it to be that

0:26:36thin it has a fanless design and so it's

0:26:38got like this entirely different uses an

0:26:42entirely different chipset from Intel

0:26:44that is designed so that it could run

0:26:45and fanless Lee and never overheat and

0:26:48the air uses like this mid-range chip

0:26:50chip set that is low power compared to

0:26:52like the pros but not so low power that

0:26:54it doesn't need a fan

0:26:56yeah i don't know i mean they yeah they

0:27:02have spent I mean there's been a number

0:27:04of years where they've their entry

0:27:06laptop was 99 right and somewhere was

0:27:10even more than that I think but that was

0:27:12a long time ago

0:27:13yeah and they are in an era where it's

0:27:19increasingly hard to sell computers so

0:27:23moving your starting price point up a

0:27:28hundred bucks

0:27:29mm I don't know if that's good i mean

0:27:32that's not going to be great if you want

0:27:33to move units and there's a compounded

0:27:37with this is another rumor about

0:27:39Thursday's update to the mac line that

0:27:41the 11-inch air is going to just quote

0:27:43go away

0:27:44yeah I wouldn't be surprised if no I

0:27:48wouldn't either if it did if it vanished

0:27:50but I also wouldn't be surprised if it

0:27:53sort of goes the way of that

0:27:5413-inch ancient macbook pro that we were

0:27:56talking about where it goes away in

0:27:59terms of it it really is never going to

0:28:01be updated again not even like a minor

0:28:02spectra fresh but that they'll keep

0:28:05selling it as is and not even really

0:28:07promote it but it's there

0:28:09you can go into every budget yeah maybe

0:28:11the justifier even drop the price to 799

0:28:13or something

0:28:14yeah that would be really kind of

0:28:17amazing cuz I don't think they've ever

0:28:19but I don't think they've ever been that

0:28:20well no I think 899 is the lowest apples

0:28:22ever so yeah man

0:28:23for and that's you know that's been the

0:28:2511-inch air for a while laptop

0:28:27Yeah right right not counting something

0:28:29incomplete like the mac mini yeah like a

0:28:32complete blacktop system that you can

0:28:33just open the box and use em think it's

0:28:37not missing you know has no ram it has

0:28:40no ramp at all for gags a lot it doesn't

0:28:46have a battery kind of like it in

0:28:50everywhere you go and plug in an

0:28:54external art do you remember do every

0:28:55years ago there was a rumor about a

0:28:58crank powered man and i have left out

0:29:01that no I don't think side like the one

0:29:04has lab animals like with that after

0:29:06after jobs and come back and I think

0:29:11after the imac had been introduced

0:29:14there were these rumors coming around

0:29:17about the ibook and what it was going to

0:29:18be and and wanna influence like one of

0:29:22the crazier rumor sites was that it was

0:29:24it was going to be it was going to crank

0:29:27and what a boon that would be to people

0:29:32because you know for all those instances

0:29:34where you're running shine like if

0:29:36you're camping such comments of area

0:29:40right right and you need to use your

0:29:42laptop you can just crank power it so i

0:29:46know that there are build to order

0:29:47options I can make these prices higher

0:29:50but right now looking at the bio macbook

0:29:52air page there's two 11-inch error

0:29:54standard configs 899 and then you up two

0:29:58hundred dollars to 1099 and you get

0:30:01double the storage you go from 128 256

0:30:04and doesn't look like you can doesn't

0:30:09look like you get anything else that's

0:30:11about the only difference and then

0:30:13there's a 13-inch macbook air that

0:30:15starts at nine ninety-two that's weird

0:30:16and one that's a two hundred dollars

0:30:19higher 1199 call it twelve hundred

0:30:22dollars and I think the only difference

0:30:25there is double the storage from 128

0:30:29flash 256 yeah and it's weird to me that

0:30:32the 13-inch comes in eight games of

0:30:36comes with a case of memory in the 11th

0:30:39is not right i don't know i guess he had

0:30:42selected though can you

0:30:43you can configure yeah you can tell you

0:30:44can figure out you can see you get up it

0:30:46and you can see significantly upgrade

0:30:48the cpu you can go from a 1.6 core i5 to

0:30:52a 2.2 core i7 yeah and I don't stay up

0:30:55to date on all that stuff anymore but I

0:30:57mean I know enough about the basic just

0:30:59that going from core i5 core i7 is

0:31:01pretty significant perform yes upgrade

0:31:04right but they're not the standard

0:31:06configs and I feel like the standard

0:31:08configs really matter but what I'm

0:31:11guessing if i had to guess what Apple is

0:31:13going to do is I'm thinking that the

0:31:16entry-level 13-inch macbook air will

0:31:20still not have a Retina screen and I

0:31:23guess if that's true that they're

0:31:24getting rid of the 11 maybe it the

0:31:2613-inch macbook air will now start at

0:31:28eight ninety-nine but that it's a non

0:31:30retina screen and that if you want to

0:31:32get right now you're going to have to

0:31:33pay at least like 1,200 bucks yeah and

0:31:36then but it still seems weird to me that

0:31:38you could pay like around 1,200 bucks to

0:31:41get a 13-inch macbook air with all these

0:31:44ports and then there's the 12 inch

0:31:46retina macbook at this

0:31:49thirteen hundred dollar starting price

0:31:51like it just seems weird to me that

0:31:54there that they're doing a new retina

0:31:56macbook air

0:31:57the other thing i could see is that they

0:32:00upgrade is the other thing I can see is

0:32:02they upgrade the 13-inch macbook air to

0:32:04whatever the latest core i7 whatever

0:32:08mobile chipset is from Intel but they

0:32:11don't even really talked about it on

0:32:12thursday they just upgrade it on the

0:32:14website and it still doesn't have a

0:32:17Retina screen and anybody who wants to

0:32:19bitch about the fact that it doesn't

0:32:20ever at the screen you know by different

0:32:22by a different look

0:32:23mhm yeah that seems to make the most

0:32:27sense to me because that can imagine i'm

0:32:30going to take the trouble putting a

0:32:32retina into the air this point right and

0:32:35I feel like you can argue well there's

0:32:37other come you know the argument that

0:32:39hey like the microsoft surface has a

0:32:40retina caliber screen and it's only 999

0:32:44dollars or whatever and

0:32:45you know Dell makes these things with

0:32:46you know whatever they call read the

0:32:48screens and they're cheap and it's like

0:32:50you know apples never competed at the

0:32:51low end on price and if anybody gets the

0:32:53short end of the stick from Apple it's

0:32:55absolutely the people who are more

0:32:57budget-conscious that's just the way the

0:32:58company is yeah you know it's the

0:33:02company is optimized in my opinion for

0:33:04people who are looking for the best

0:33:06products not not the lowest price

0:33:08products

0:33:09yeah because the other thing too is in

0:33:14addition to the just the fact that the

0:33:18regular retina macbook is relatively

0:33:20know it's clearly what Apple thinks the

0:33:23future of laptops are there's also just

0:33:25the simple fact that they gave it the

0:33:27name macbook or hate it's like it yeah

0:33:29it's not like we're reading interests

0:33:32it's not like it's hard to read into

0:33:33that that by calling it just plain

0:33:35macbook with no adjectives that Apple is

0:33:37saying you know maybe not now but soon

0:33:40this is the standard this is what you

0:33:42this is what the standard apple laptop

0:33:43is yeah and it really is weird to have

0:33:47one's called air that are thicker and

0:33:49heavier like it makes no sense

0:33:53well yeah that mean that's just seems to

0:33:55be wide it's obvious that it seemed

0:33:58obvious at least that it was going away

0:33:59right so it seems very strange that

0:34:02there's these rumors that it's standing

0:34:04around I mean the other thing is they

0:34:05did it wouldn't be the first time that

0:34:07they have updated a model that's only

0:34:12been out for like six months because

0:34:14they did it with the ipad yeah they did

0:34:16that with the ipad 33 right and any ipad

0:34:20for came out like six months later

0:34:21because i have three was sort of sort of

0:34:23thicker you know it was the first

0:34:25retinol i believe right yeah I could see

0:34:29it you know and again with the pc stuff

0:34:32it seems you know that I don't think

0:34:33that they're anywhere near as

0:34:36constrained you know a component wise as

0:34:42they are with especially the iphone but

0:34:44probably the ipad 2 where they kind of

0:34:46need to get their ducks in a row and has

0:34:50a look we're going to have you know 70

0:34:53million of these system-on-a-chip for

0:34:55the next year for all these iphone 7 and

0:34:57are all going to be exactly the same

0:34:58like I don't I think with the macbook it

0:35:01you know it's not anywhere near is you

0:35:03know we need to be making the exact same

0:35:05device for an entire year just to break

0:35:07even on the on the manufacturer

0:35:11mhm a lot but i would like to see which

0:35:15is probably not going to happen though

0:35:16is it is an 11-inch macbook air 13-inch

0:35:18macbook like I kind of want to the fact

0:35:23that they've the fact that they've done

0:35:24a 12-inch now though that doesn't seem

0:35:26like that's gonna happen

0:35:26yeah and i'm not sure how the I've never

0:35:29actually put like the 12-inch next to

0:35:31the 11-inch macbook air and just seen

0:35:33how they compare because i think that

0:35:36the display does kind of go more edge to

0:35:38edge on the macbook like footprint wise

0:35:40they might be very similar

0:35:43yeah i think they are so I kind of feel

0:35:45I mean it seems like I mean I you know

0:35:47I've only played with one a few times

0:35:49but it does not seem demands probably

0:35:52larger than the 11 chair

0:35:54yeah let's see what the text back so

0:35:56yeah we can find that out so it is 11

0:36:00inches the macbook is 11 inches wide and

0:36:057.74 deep all right at the 11-inch

0:36:09macbook air is 11.8 inches wide and 7.5

0:36:14six inches deep so on dad yet it's

0:36:17almost the same but it is right it is a

0:36:20eight tenths of an inch narrower the but

0:36:25that the 12-inch MacBook is narrower oh

0:36:29you're right

0:36:30yes for the other way around I'm an

0:36:32idiot now yeah it was it but it's been

0:36:34traumatic but it's only for smaller

0:36:36right well but it's deeper right yeah

0:36:38but just by a little bit right so maybe

0:36:41with that design maybe what it would be

0:36:43would be a 14-inch you know maybe 12 12

0:36:46inch and 14 and 14 i can see that and

0:36:49then it may be the mirrors are wrong

0:36:50calling it third rage calling 13 because

0:36:52maybe it's one of those things where

0:36:54it's like I don't know 13-point

0:36:56something and apples just going to get

0:36:59close enough to 14 that Apple is going

0:37:00to call it 14 yeah I could

0:37:06as a way to square this circle as well

0:37:08if the truth is that there is no update

0:37:10to the macbook air and what they're

0:37:11going to do is unavailable big brother

0:37:13to the 12 inch retina macbook i can see

0:37:16that maybe even have a second USBC port

0:37:21yeah and then you have a laptop set 12

0:37:2713 14 15

0:37:29yeah that kind of makes some sense and

0:37:32suppose although i don't know if it

0:37:33makes sense for the consumer ones to cut

0:37:35quote-unquote have larger displays than

0:37:36the pro ones I don't know

0:37:38well I think some people some people

0:37:41seem to like that 13 inch air

0:37:45I've always been and always liked the

0:37:49smaller one but you know people who just

0:37:55want more screen real estate right for

0:37:57people who don't see the wealth i used

0:37:59an 11-inch for years and many years at

0:38:02least five years for 5 years four years

0:38:05i think and loved it but my thinking at

0:38:08the time was if you're going to go small

0:38:10and then go small and thin as you can

0:38:13and get light so i got a maxed-out

0:38:14performance-wise 11 chair and then when

0:38:17i switch to a 13-inch macbook pro two

0:38:19years ago it was on the basis of if I'm

0:38:21gonna carry something thicker and

0:38:24heavier i might as well get the the pro

0:38:27and get the performance rather than the

0:38:2913-inch air

0:38:31yeah yeah and I mean that I'm in that

0:38:34quandary right now because my so my air

0:38:39is forward years old and then my my imac

0:38:43upstairs have two machines upstairs

0:38:45let's do it used for a sort of media

0:38:46server things one is a 2010 macbook pro

0:38:50and then the other one is a 2007 imac

0:38:53and those are definitely definitely

0:38:56showing their age so I'm kind of liking

0:38:58that that space where I was like am I

0:39:00going to buy another like the low-end

0:39:02laptop just to carry around and do

0:39:05writing with or am I gonna split the

0:39:08differentiating and get together get the

0:39:09pro and do whatever power stuff i need

0:39:12to do on that well any other thing too

0:39:14is that by all accounts the pro I mean

0:39:16of course the pros getting thinner

0:39:17because that's what Apple does as they

0:39:18make stuff thinner

0:39:19read the when they finally got you know

0:39:21the current models when they are the

0:39:25world's first ones that you don't even

0:39:26have the option of getting a spinning

0:39:27hard disk in because they're actually

0:39:29too thin you have to use SSD the new

0:39:31ones are going to be even thinner so

0:39:32they're getting as thin as the air is

0:39:34used to be even if they're not

0:39:35wedge-shaped I mean they're getting

0:39:37there certainly approaching that like

0:39:39that so the air is getting squeezed out

0:39:40to me in almost every way imaginable

0:39:42it's getting squeezed out on thinnest by

0:39:44the pros it's getting squeezed out on

0:39:46you know retina screen by the macbook

0:39:50the name macbook tells you that you know

0:39:52it's becoming the standard default

0:39:55laptop everything other than having a

0:39:59low price and if the whole point is to

0:40:01have a low price

0:40:02I don't see how it's going to get a read

0:40:03the screen just because it makes the

0:40:07other ones look bad but yeah what people

0:40:09i guess the other thing we're talking

0:40:10around is the fact that there are tens

0:40:14of thousands of people listening to this

0:40:15podcast right now who desperately want

0:40:17Apple to just make a macbook air with

0:40:20retina screen probably true

0:40:23right but I really don't think it's

0:40:25gonna happen it reminds me of the switch

0:40:27from the classic mac OS to Mac os10 in a

0:40:31way where what diehard mac users really

0:40:35wanted was a new version of the mac OS

0:40:37that was you know just had the the

0:40:40better

0:40:41Colonel just give us like a real

0:40:43operating system with you know

0:40:45pre-emptive are not pre-emptive

0:40:47multitasking with right you know real

0:40:48multitasking instead of cooperative or a

0:40:50pre-emptive is the good multitasking

0:40:52cooperative multitasking was that was

0:40:54the euphemism right this is not very

0:40:58cooperative

0:41:00I would call it that prisoners dilemma

0:41:02multi-way about right way I can like me

0:41:11IDC i could just use the whole cpu but I

0:41:14mr. ask voluntarily not too

0:41:17hmm but I on that users really wanted

0:41:24I'm going to jail

0:41:25all the accuser's really wanted was a

0:41:28new version of the mac OS that had a

0:41:29stable modern you know

0:41:32yeah I'm Peter sighs perspective

0:41:34operating system and instead we we gotta

0:41:36think we've got everything was different

0:41:38and a lot of stuff that used to be fast

0:41:42was suddenly very slow to make it fancy

0:41:44etcetera etcetera and I sort of feel

0:41:46like Apple is doing the same thing with

0:41:48the transition from the macbook air to

0:41:50the macbook which is that what what many

0:41:53people I hear from them every time I

0:41:54bring it up on during fireballer on this

0:41:56podcast i hear all the time i see it on

0:41:58Twitter all the time is people like the

0:42:02macbook air

0:42:03I or love the macbook air and only thing

0:42:06they don't like about it is the non

0:42:08retina screen and so why doesn't Apple

0:42:10just just put our retina screen in the

0:42:12macbook air and they'll just buy it but

0:42:15I don't think it's where Apple wants to

0:42:17take things

0:42:18yeah well we're gonna do all right what

0:42:24about what about what about other other

0:42:28max well let's that got up after this

0:42:31back let me take a break and tell you

0:42:32about my first sponsor the show it's a

0:42:37good friends at Casper Casper makes

0:42:39obsessively engineered mattresses at

0:42:41shockingly fair prices go to Casper calm

0:42:43/ the talk show and use code the talk

0:42:47show you'll save 50 bucks towards your

0:42:49mattress Casper has created one perfect

0:42:52mattress so directly to consumers

0:42:54eliminating the Commission driven

0:42:57inflated prices of rat droppings filled

0:43:01mattress retail stores their

0:43:05award-winning mattress was developed in

0:43:07house has a sleek design and is

0:43:08delivered in a remarkably small box you

0:43:10should buy one honestly even if you

0:43:12don't need a mattress you should think

0:43:13about buying one just to get the box

0:43:15because it's so fun to open it just

0:43:17makes the course noise it's like a

0:43:19vacuum compresses like Shh and you have

0:43:22to be careful because it sucks all the

0:43:23oxygen oxygen out of the room but

0:43:26kind of it's kind of a good effect they

0:43:30also now offer adaptive pillows and soft

0:43:33breathable sheets really nice sheets

0:43:35high cotton high thread count all the

0:43:37all the buzzwords like sleeping it in

0:43:40like a five-star luxury hotel bed you

0:43:42get like you by the Casper sheets and

0:43:44everything in the pillows it's just it's

0:43:46just like super high-end stuff it's

0:43:48really really nice and it its it sounds

0:43:51too good to be true how can the prices

0:43:53be so much lower than the other retail

0:43:54stores will because the other the

0:43:55regular mattress industry it's just a

0:43:57ripoff

0:43:58it's you know it's all these markups

0:44:00with these middlemen you got these

0:44:01salespeople they purposefully the other

0:44:04brands that I'm not going to name names

0:44:05but you know like Celie they they they

0:44:09purposely give their mattresses these

0:44:12weird names were if you go from one

0:44:13store to another the same mattress like

0:44:16if you cut it open as like a different

0:44:18name so that you can't price compare its

0:44:20it's purposely made to confuse the

0:44:22consumer and to help the the retail

0:44:25stores sort of obfuscate how much these

0:44:27things really cost Casper sells direct

0:44:30to you they just make these things and

0:44:32ship them right to you

0:44:33here's the prices premium mattress is

0:44:36from most stores usually start at over

0:44:381,500 bucks casper mattresses cost 500

0:44:41for twin 604 twin XL 754 full 854 queen

0:44:45in just nine hundred fifty bucks under a

0:44:47thousand dollars for king and these

0:44:50mattresses are made in America pretty

0:44:54sure it's still true if you live in New

0:44:55York City you can get them delivered

0:44:56they come to you on bicycle that's how

0:44:58small the boxes some some poor step on a

0:45:02bike strapped to his back and delivers

0:45:05it to your house pretty cool thing if

0:45:06you think about it that's how small the

0:45:07mattress is a mattress on the back so go

0:45:10check them out they have a new dog

0:45:12mattress to the the offer code doesn't

0:45:16work for the dog mattress alas but trust

0:45:19me I've had a couple readers who bought

0:45:21this dog mattress and and they all said

0:45:24that their dogs love it that this is

0:45:25like the best thing i ever bought from a

0:45:27podcast so go check it out Casper calm /

0:45:30the talk show and remember that code the

0:45:32talkshow to say fifty bucks on any human

0:45:35mattress

0:45:37but your dog deserves the best anyway he

0:45:43gets the best your dog sleep like in the

0:45:46same spot all the time

0:45:48no he has a he has an old futon on the

0:45:52floor that time he sleeps on that he

0:45:54supposed to sleep on but half the time

0:45:55is up on the bed my child of a dog

0:45:59Chester and I love that dog god damn i

0:46:02love that he was a mean little little

0:46:04love like a poodle mix forget what he

0:46:10was mixer I think like a Pekinese ok he

0:46:13was somewhere it was of it we gotta

0:46:15marry me pican easier mean Karen my wife

0:46:18had Pekinese growing up and yeah they

0:46:20were just seen by us look at ya

0:46:22oh yeah hit me a couple times but I

0:46:24deserved it I was teased them so you

0:46:26know I mean fair's fair

0:46:27I love that dog but I'll tell you what

0:46:28we get you couldn't tell him where to

0:46:30sleep

0:46:31I mean if I think this sure is a way to

0:46:34make sure he didn't sleep on a dog

0:46:36mattress would have been to buy him a

0:46:37dog Patrick no other max yeah so this is

0:46:47where everybody seems to be fuzzy is

0:46:49that what else are they going to

0:46:52announce so the mac pro is hasn't been

0:46:56updated said last update according to

0:46:58MacRumors was a July of 1998 was the

0:47:05last time that the mac pro was updated

0:47:08so it has been when it was when it was

0:47:10called DM the powermac 18 years

0:47:15encounter then it's unchanged in 18

0:47:20years now that is unusually long for the

0:47:23mac pro so yeah that 1i i would say most

0:47:27people would agree that the mac pro is

0:47:30due for it up there was blue right it

0:47:33was the right one

0:47:36I there are no rumors of a nut mac pro

0:47:39update but the mac pro is famously it's

0:47:44it made in America are manufactured in

0:47:47America so it's a completely different

0:47:49supply chain so any you know and I I

0:47:51can't help but think that it was going

0:47:52to turn out like five little quarter

0:47:55network very busy very busy operate like

0:48:02the easiest job in it is this job means

0:48:05every company guy what a graduate of its

0:48:08fully stocked all of this all the

0:48:10soldering himself just worn grooves on

0:48:14the dasi from those feet go up every day

0:48:18okay he's all cut up on westworld

0:48:25imagine the phone rings Tim Cook what

0:48:32and the update

0:48:36oh no all the sudden it as the phone

0:48:39rings he hears like a truck backing up

0:48:40parts all over i would not be surprised

0:48:48i have absolutely no inside info nobody

0:48:50has said a damn word to me about any mac

0:48:53pro's I just common sense says to me

0:48:55that they've either got updated soon or

0:48:58they've got to just officially say you

0:49:00know not making anymore we're not making

0:49:03it any more

0:49:04yeah but it just seems on you it just

0:49:06seems like they need to have this device

0:49:08in my weights

0:49:10yeah although how many I mean the late

0:49:14yeah they don't probably don't sell that

0:49:15many they're crazy expensive and they

0:49:19come with their own quirks but that

0:49:21there's a great looking device but but i

0:49:24still think that they really want to own

0:49:27or not own i'm not saying that they own

0:49:29it so but they want to be known as the

0:49:32leading computer maker for the

0:49:34quote-unquote pro industry whether it's

0:49:37professional video people people who are

0:49:39you know

0:49:40editing movies people who are

0:49:44professional photographers who are

0:49:46working with you know 50 gigabyte raw

0:49:50files you know wherever you you know

0:49:54whatever the program developers of

0:49:55course you know i think even for their

0:49:57own use

0:49:58it's a useful device i mean the imac is

0:50:00pretty fast and has a nice display but

0:50:02you know it developing software is still

0:50:06one of those things where having of the

0:50:08fastest cpu possible can definitely make

0:50:10you know your daily day-to-day life

0:50:12better so I i don't think that they it

0:50:16just seems unusual for me and I don't

0:50:18think they need to ever touch the

0:50:19industrial design again remember i

0:50:22should say ever but you know that

0:50:24macbook a macpro that looks exactly like

0:50:26the black cylindrical thing that we know

0:50:29it just has a new GPU and cpu yeah and

0:50:35you know all these modern ports like us

0:50:38bc and asset receptor just seems like

0:50:41something Apple should sell so i

0:50:43wouldn't be surprised at all if they

0:50:44have it ready to go on thursday and we

0:50:45just haven't heard about it because they

0:50:47were able to keep it secret because it's

0:50:49not going through the agent supply June

0:50:52that looks like a sieve right yeah well

0:50:56i think i think would be nice

0:50:57I mean I hope they don't i don't know

0:50:59I'm not in the market for one problem

0:51:00never gonna be in the market for one but

0:51:02I i agree with that sentiment that it

0:51:07seems like the kind of thing that they

0:51:08should keep making is sort of a even if

0:51:10it's just like putting a flag in the

0:51:12ground

0:51:13I think there's some speculation that

0:51:16people who follow these intel chipsets

0:51:20you know that maybe the timing isn't

0:51:22really quite right for a new mac pro

0:51:24because like the last update to the z

0:51:28online of proteins and cpus was you know

0:51:30like may or something like that so you

0:51:32think that maybe if they were going to

0:51:33do it they would have done it in june

0:51:35and now they're sort of like only just a

0:51:38few months away from like the next one

0:51:40with called like gravy train or

0:51:41something like that I don't think apple

0:51:44is all that I i think at this point when

0:51:46they've gone this far between updates to

0:51:47Mac Pro's I i think if there's six

0:51:50months late on the latest xeon

0:51:52processors

0:51:53so what right i don't know yet there

0:51:57I don't know that they're looking at

0:51:58keeping the mac pro within a couple of

0:52:01weeks of the Intel cutting-edge yeah I

0:52:05don't know what do you think well I mean

0:52:06I i think if you

0:52:08it depends on what else you're

0:52:09announcing with it maybe in and if

0:52:11they're announcing it within with new

0:52:13monitors then maybe that becomes the

0:52:17bigger story than right whatever

0:52:19processors in a that's exactly where I

0:52:22was headed ton so maybe the reason that

0:52:24they haven't updated the mac pro in such

0:52:27an absurdly long time is that they

0:52:29really wanted the quote-unquote next Mac

0:52:32Pro to work with the next a apple cinema

0:52:36display appetizing sold at this place in

0:52:38June since they discontinued the

0:52:39non-retina whatever they called it in

0:52:42another conspicuous absence from the

0:52:45apple product lineup is a retina pro

0:52:49display whenever they want to call it

0:52:51you know cinema display 5k whatever but

0:52:54you know something like the big imac

0:52:58display with retina resolution and the

0:53:01the high color gamut range and a simple

0:53:05it just works just plug this thing into

0:53:07your mac and you know you don't have to

0:53:10worry about plugging two or three cables

0:53:11in because you need to graphics cards to

0:53:13knit stitch together or whatever just

0:53:16solve all the problems of the bandwidth

0:53:18of driving the 5k retina display you

0:53:21worry about apple just give me a simple

0:53:23thing to plug in so maybe they were

0:53:25waiting for that and maybe they bought

0:53:27previously that maybe they'd have

0:53:29something like that ready earlier but it

0:53:31all kind of needs to come together it

0:53:33seems to me like some of this stuff is a

0:53:35it all needs to come at once and that

0:53:38sort of has maybe been the main cause of

0:53:41this unusual dearth of mac updates

0:53:44hardware updates yeah that they kind of

0:53:48want to move to this world where there's

0:53:50USBC ports that do thunderbolt and that

0:53:52can be connected to a 5k cinema display

0:53:54but it all kind of needs to come at once

0:53:58maybe yeah so I can i yeah it seems like

0:54:02I mean that's kind of their thing right

0:54:03i mean they don't know where

0:54:05other companies are happy to introduce a

0:54:07technology and say hey now we have this

0:54:11ok we have you have that but it doesn't

0:54:12work with everything else

0:54:15Apple wants to make sure that everything

0:54:16works you know at least you know in

0:54:19general works better together and

0:54:22creates and and creates a story that

0:54:26makes that tries to make that whole

0:54:28package compelling alright so so I think

0:54:32there's definitely something to that

0:54:34argument it's also the case i know a ton

0:54:36of people who connect their macbook pros

0:54:41to a display at their desk and that they

0:54:44therefore you know that so that like at

0:54:47work you have a nice big display in

0:54:50front of you

0:54:51maybe two displays if you keep your

0:54:52macbook open on the side you could do it

0:54:55either way and then at the end of the

0:54:56day you can just disconnect the thing

0:54:58and take the macbook pro home with you

0:55:00and you just have the macbook pro i know

0:55:02tons of people who work like that

0:55:03I know that here and filling my friends

0:55:05and happy cog a great web development

0:55:08studio or web design studio they

0:55:10redesign the whole office around that

0:55:11concept they just everybody's desk all

0:55:14they have at their desk is a display and

0:55:16then everybody everybody gets a macbook

0:55:19pro and that's how everybody works you

0:55:21don't have to sit at the same spot every

0:55:23day you can just you know just walk up

0:55:26to any open display and plug it in and

0:55:28you get power and display nobody wants

0:55:31nobody wants designers don't want to

0:55:33work with non retina displays anymore

0:55:36I mean it actually is actually broken

0:55:38heart you you can't design retina

0:55:40graphics without a radio display I mean

0:55:41it's you know and developers you know I

0:55:43know that they were talking about an ATP

0:55:45this week we're akc list was talking

0:55:47about how he's trying to design the

0:55:49retina iphone apps on a non retina

0:55:51display and you end up doing you like to

0:55:53run the app on your phone and you

0:55:55realize there's all these graphics that

0:55:56are missing you can even see them on

0:55:58your display you know really it's it's

0:56:01you know it you can do it technically in

0:56:04the same way that you could you could do

0:56:07an illustration with your eyes closed

0:56:08right just just may not turn out right

0:56:14you don't have to wear your glasses yeah

0:56:17you just take a guess as to whether it's

0:56:19in focus and again they'll be they'll be

0:56:23crazy if they do come will be crazy

0:56:25expensive

0:56:26oh I well I don't know but I mean they

0:56:29think well I don't know their to the way

0:56:31to expend more it I mean I will I will

0:56:33not be my one but what does what does

0:56:35the retina 5k imax started let's see

0:56:38it's not like 1500 dogs and it was

0:56:41exactly was gonna say 1,500 books

0:56:4327-inch imac with retina 5k display

0:56:47well now it's a little bit more

0:56:48expensive that starts in two hundred

0:56:49dollars okay i would think that they

0:56:53could sell that display without the

0:56:55computer inside for I don't know maybe

0:56:57twelve hundred dollars i don't know I

0:57:00knew but the onions and apples of 27

0:57:02inch display was 999 and it was kind of

0:57:06ridiculous about the end of its life

0:57:07that they were still readily hit 99 like

0:57:10that is part of what makes this

0:57:11laughable is I understand why Apple set

0:57:14a price and then keeps the price for the

0:57:16entire product lifetime as opposed to

0:57:18Del which sort of Dell's computers are

0:57:21sort of like the stock market where they

0:57:22get repriced everyday based on you know

0:57:24there are fluctuations

0:57:26it's true though it really is it's it's

0:57:29like you can come you know I mean you

0:57:30can configure the x-ray machine Adele

0:57:32like a week later and it's you know it's

0:57:34more like buying an airplane ticket like

0:57:36the paint anything about it and then

0:57:39lots of sales from other like-minded the

0:57:41time i bought my my kid up a pc laptop a

0:57:45few couple years ago for Christmas and

0:57:47and yeah like navigating that whole

0:57:49thing like well it's you know not only

0:57:50place this but this you know get this

0:57:52new coupon sale yeah okay great so I got

0:57:57you know I got what you know its do its

0:57:59it ostensibly the price was like 850 and

0:58:02i got it for 750 or something like that

0:58:04I mean it's like Apple would never do

0:58:05that

0:58:07you got a coupon and a Retina display

0:58:14type in this code the I don't know if I

0:58:22should tell the story and i guess i will

0:58:24take that was one of the worst things

0:58:25I've ever it at worst I ever felt about

0:58:27myself in my life I was in college and

0:58:33this middle of the day and there's

0:58:35africa i can think of

0:58:37actually forget forget the name of the

0:58:39student union even though i spent like

0:58:4012 10 hours a day in the building

0:58:42because it was where this school

0:58:43newspaper was and I was going in and out

0:58:46of the building for reasons that I no

0:58:48longer remember but it was some kind of

0:58:50task it was like first maybe like first

0:58:52day of a new semester and there was

0:58:54something me and another colleague from

0:58:56the student newspaper at drexel we're

0:58:57doing where it required us to keep going

0:59:00back in and out of the building middle

0:59:02of the afternoon

0:59:03nice sunny day and there's some kid also

0:59:06a college kid obviously be taking a job

0:59:08from somebody to hand out little some

0:59:11kind of flyer two kids coming in and we

0:59:16weren't coming in like every minute or

0:59:17so is maybe like every 20 minutes or so

0:59:19and every time we went by he would offer

0:59:22them to us as though we've never seen us

0:59:24again and then there's this moment of

0:59:25recognition and it's like oh you guys

0:59:27again and do it and after like the

0:59:31seventh time and he did it again any was

0:59:34almost apologetic he I said what are

0:59:36these coupons coupons and he said

0:59:40they're there coupons and I said well I

0:59:43only take coupons my friend who i was

0:59:48with almost died of laughter he said I

0:59:51can't believe that guy didn't just punch

0:59:52you and I was like you know you probably

0:59:54should of but because that is that was

0:59:58uncalled for it was not on call

0:59:58uncalled for it was not on call

1:00:00for anything at the time i was i amused

1:00:03myself to death with that but i'm i'm a

1:00:05changed man I've grown up I'd I no

1:00:07longer see this

1:00:08well i just i do see it is funny but I

1:00:11no longer see it as something that I

1:00:12would actually say yea it is definitely

1:00:16funny in think you know college I mean I

1:00:20yeah I mean well i'm not i'm not going

1:00:22over things that in Catholic but the

1:00:24funny thing i remember was that when I

1:00:25said it I didn't expect him to give me

1:00:27an answer I expected him when i said

1:00:29that the coupons coupons I expected him

1:00:31to give me the finger at that point here

1:00:33right

1:00:34he didn't even hesitate he didn't even

1:00:36hesitate he said their coupons i

1:00:38remember that he said there he said

1:00:40coupons coupons and I just all I only

1:00:44accept coupe

1:00:47I don't know what I don't know something

1:00:50about that I haven't thought about that

1:00:51so we're good yeah if that guy's

1:00:53listening you know Josh and also if

1:00:57you're free daring fireball teacher i

1:01:00started yet yeah I haven't thought about

1:01:02that story in 20 years so i just sent

1:01:06you a link this happened while we were

1:01:07recording apparently pictures of the of

1:01:13the the bar leaked in Sierra their of

1:01:17the retina macbook images of new macbook

1:01:21pro with magic toolbar leaked in mac OS

1:01:24Sierra 10-12 that one you know Apple

1:01:30includes Apple pay so there is a like a

1:01:33fingerprint sensor i also see that

1:01:38they've printed a macrumors logo on the

1:01:41return key and saw that I thought that

1:01:44must be them now they're doing some

1:01:47co-branding I guess

1:01:50hey this is the bank yeah this is got a

1:01:54dr phil schiller nuts

1:01:56oh my god yeah right here how did they

1:01:58do that I mean I where would I i guess

1:02:00this was in the help i guess for ten

1:02:03that time that one

1:02:05well I'll put everybody by the time they

1:02:07hear it will probably have seen it but I

1:02:08will yeah everyone's probably putting a

1:02:10link in the show notes we did you know

1:02:12that's nice that we talked about first

1:02:13is the way to go i have all could you do

1:02:18it like 15 minutes earlier because they

1:02:21yes they did nobody notice that I well

1:02:25that brings us that brings us to the

1:02:29next question I was going to have it

1:02:31which is that I didn't have it in the

1:02:34notes which is a what has been rumored

1:02:36and it does make some sort of you know

1:02:38simple sense that they were going to put

1:02:39touch ID on the new macbooks my question

1:02:44is where is it going to go like the just

1:02:47the basic idea of having touch ID on a

1:02:49macbook yeah sure that sounds it makes a

1:02:52lot of sense especially once you get

1:02:53used to it on a phone you realize how

1:02:54nice it is but where would it go on a on

1:02:57a macbook would it go on the trackpad

1:02:59let it go on like the jakey let it go

1:03:04and it looks like you know the answer is

1:03:07they're putting it up in this upper

1:03:08right corner of the magic toolbar

1:03:11yeah and my other thought is even if

1:03:13with this magic toolbar a would they put

1:03:17it in a corner or put it in the middle

1:03:19because it seems like by putting it in

1:03:21me is it going to be on both corners it

1:03:23doesn't seems like a waste of components

1:03:25to put two in but on the other hand too

1:03:29isn't it oddly bias towards right-handed

1:03:31users by putting in a proper right

1:03:33corner or am i over stand close i think

1:03:35maybe you're overthinking and I mean and

1:03:37you know unlocking with Matthew no

1:03:40unlocked i'm assuming that the computer

1:03:42locks with it too but unlocking and

1:03:44paying with my left index finger would

1:03:47be not really i want to receive either

1:03:50and i can write as a right-hander yeah

1:03:52but I put it but i would guess that it's

1:03:54it's um it's configurable because I mean

1:03:57that's the whole point of the thing

1:03:58right

1:03:59yeah but the whole thing can't be a

1:04:00touch ID sensor right i mean yes

1:04:03poznan that's right on yeah it would

1:04:06seem unnecessarily I mean I guess it

1:04:07could be but it seems like that would be

1:04:08waiting for you to one in each corner

1:04:11but right now it just seems like a waste

1:04:13to that and i guess i guess the power

1:04:15button is always been on the upper right

1:04:17corner so you know seems like

1:04:18left-handed macbook users have been able

1:04:20to turn their computers on and on him

1:04:23for a while so maybe I'm overthinking

1:04:25that came over sensitive to my

1:04:28left-handed friends maybe and maybe they

1:04:30sell different models a left and a right

1:04:31like buying all the clothes are already

1:04:37there

1:04:37there are likely models that have mac

1:04:39rumors on the internet like particles

1:04:41and scissors you can buy a left hand and

1:04:43foot problem at the left or have to go

1:04:47to the left or even though you know what

1:04:49bothers me about this shot

1:04:50really it does and it's it's I'm showing

1:04:53my age and I got it just get used to it

1:04:55but I look at this there's a picture of

1:04:58its it's showing I guess it's from I get

1:05:01you said it's from the help of of how to

1:05:03use Apple pay somebody is making an

1:05:05apple pay purchase the touchscreen the

1:05:07little strip has a cancel button on the

1:05:09left then it says Apple pay and then

1:05:12something in red that I I can't read but

1:05:14i'm guessing it that's as touch here

1:05:16yeah touch your ID de Appel 904 course

1:05:21is going to 326 books right can you get

1:05:23from apple for three intrinsic then open

1:05:25and you can also see what's on the

1:05:27display

1:05:28yeah no no they're buying beats always

1:05:30headphones headphones you can also see

1:05:33what's on the display and they're using

1:05:35safari to buy something from apple.com

1:05:37what bothers me is that they're running

1:05:39it

1:05:40they're running this mac with the menu

1:05:41bar hidden yeah I really every bombers

1:05:46full fullscreen fullscreen mode bothers

1:05:50you

1:05:50yeah I think you're going to enter

1:05:54you're going to say it doesn't it

1:05:56doesn't mean the Apple paysheet look

1:05:58like it's um it's not connected at well

1:06:02it doesn't maybe maybe it's okay

1:06:05it almost looks like it's square it's

1:06:06not that the perspectives of the

1:06:09perspective is off

1:06:10yeah maybe like yeah so do

1:06:14so anyway I guess we're getting a touch

1:06:16in text rip mama glad we settled that

1:06:21yeah presumably if it is oled they're

1:06:25saying it macrumors is saying it as fact

1:06:27that it's an oled touch panel which you

1:06:30certainly can't tell from the image but

1:06:32it does make some sense that it's oled

1:06:34and not LCD because it's going to be

1:06:36black most of the time or the background

1:06:38is going to be black all the time and

1:06:40all that does much blacker blacks than

1:06:43LCD and it's like I think the colors are

1:06:47still messed up on oled but you

1:06:48certainly can't complain about the

1:06:49blacks this is then they also say a new

1:06:56macbook air models all day same rumor i

1:06:58guess yeah well there's that particular

1:07:05they say they say new imacs or

1:07:07possibility as well I think that I'm i

1:07:10think that's true it just because i

1:07:12think that the imac is still sort of the

1:07:14you know it's the the default desktop

1:07:18computer I mean it's obvious that the

1:07:20mac pro or the mac mini mac mini and

1:07:23updated in two years so why not you know

1:07:26it's been a year it was october last

1:07:27year why not just you know just do a

1:07:30silent or not silent but you know but

1:07:32you know just take the latest and

1:07:33greatest from intelligent and stick it

1:07:35in the gut

1:07:36I can't see why they wouldn't do that

1:07:39yeah yeah I don't know either

1:07:43I mean but I don't look not sure why

1:07:46they haven't updated the the mac pro in

1:07:48the mac mini for write several years

1:07:51alright so wrapping up i think that we

1:07:54will see the new mac pro's I think we

1:07:58don't know what the hell they're doing

1:07:59with this quote unquote 13-inch other

1:08:02model doesn't make any sense to us can't

1:08:06wait to find out about that one

1:08:07yeah I I don't know if I bet on new mac

1:08:12pros but because it seems to me like you

1:08:14could lose a lot of money over the last

1:08:15three years by betting on new macros but

1:08:19I would at least like to see new mac

1:08:21pros and it seems like maybe they if

1:08:23they've been waiting for retina display

1:08:25maybe the time is right and

1:08:27it if we can have one will see both well

1:08:29then does it seem like I mean it i'm not

1:08:31sure these just updating the laptop line

1:08:36doesn't sound like enough for an event

1:08:38doesn't I don't think so either

1:08:41I mean we can continue about after the

1:08:42sponsor break the major there's other

1:08:44stuff they could announce that the mac

1:08:45hardware but it does seem to me like if

1:08:48it was really just if the only thing

1:08:49that was really nunu like this is a new

1:08:51design new is the macbook pros

1:08:53I don't know that they would have an

1:08:54event right so i don't know i mean we

1:08:58certainly know everything you know

1:08:59Sierra is already out

1:09:00it's not like you know it's not like

1:09:02they have new operating system to show

1:09:05yeah I mean you know the only other

1:09:08thing that ok you want to what you're

1:09:11going to say like well do the air pods I

1:09:13mean the death they would announce their

1:09:14partnership shipping

1:09:15yeah but that's not just the first thing

1:09:17that takes time in an event for that I'm

1:09:19no guessing that that's when they're

1:09:20going to say that because they did say

1:09:22late October and this event will be on

1:09:25the twenty-seventh looking over so so

1:09:30I'm hopeful i hope we're going to see

1:09:31Mac Pro's we'll see i'm not going to bet

1:09:34the house on it

1:09:35I i would definitely not be surprised to

1:09:38see that we have updated imax that look

1:09:40exactly the same but just have updated

1:09:42components i mean there's no point to

1:09:44update it updating the the display right

1:09:48yeah i mean that displayed all right in

1:09:49that doesn't that doesn't make any sense

1:09:51right it's already got the high color

1:09:52gamut and all the pixels you want and

1:09:56then there's that I guess the only thing

1:09:57left is the mac mini which I don't think

1:09:59they're going to it i don't i don't know

1:10:01i know i think that might be like done

1:10:04you think that we really well I don't

1:10:07know or maybe it's sort of on a

1:10:09permanent three or four years schedule i

1:10:11don't know i just wouldn't be surprised

1:10:13if Vienna I did the event comes and goes

1:10:16and there's no news about the mac mini I

1:10:17just wish that they would just you know

1:10:19stickney processors in them i mean i do

1:10:22too don't you don't have to change it

1:10:23that much just put some new processors

1:10:25in it and then

1:10:26hey I know it's all it seems like that's

1:10:29not that hard in your hands kind of

1:10:32printing money doing it

1:10:34ended well Apple's a very small company

1:10:36i think that you know I don't know that

1:10:38they have it but butter with all that

1:10:41bandwidth you know the internal

1:10:42bandwidth the update update a computer

1:10:47that doesn't even a display or anything

1:10:49mhm i would like to see them update the

1:10:51mac mini i would like to see them keep

1:10:52it updated i think the mac mini is an

1:10:54interesting little device where yes

1:10:57in many cases it's just the lowest price

1:10:59apple official mac that you can buy

1:11:02without you know building your own

1:11:03hackintosh thing and it is just somebody

1:11:06trying to build the cheapest desktop Mac

1:11:09that they can get away with or you know

1:11:10and and you know sensibly reuse existing

1:11:13things like the display that they've

1:11:15already got that's pretty if you have a

1:11:17perfectly fine display you know that

1:11:19this is perfectly fine low-cost math but

1:11:22it's also a device and I'm sure that

1:11:25like you know people who listen to my

1:11:26podcast are among their where it's in

1:11:29some ways it kind of is a power user

1:11:30device because it's the sort of thing

1:11:32that people who would set up like a

1:11:34media server in their house would do

1:11:36right where it's not like your power

1:11:38user where you're spending a lot of

1:11:39money on it but where you're doing

1:11:40things that most typical consumers would

1:11:43never even think to do em right like you

1:11:47know you are build like your own you

1:11:48know people i know you know people who

1:11:51sort of rather than buy an Apple TV will

1:11:53you know by a mac mini and sort of you

1:11:55know select their own software that they

1:11:57can use to drive their home

1:11:59entertainment system

1:12:00yeah so that maybe they can watch movies

1:12:02that fell off a truck and stuff like

1:12:04that it's not there's certain things

1:12:08that you can do if you just have a pc

1:12:11that you control connected to your TV

1:12:12that you couldn't do so there are power

1:12:14user it use cases for the mac mini and I

1:12:19always you know I like to think of an

1:12:21apple as a company that makes things

1:12:23that people like that would like to buy

1:12:24so i would like to see it but I I'm not

1:12:27holding my breath for but maybe you know

1:12:29maybe just like in the one fell swoop

1:12:32now everything uses USB see you know

1:12:34maybe they update the mac mini to just

1:12:36to get us bc ports on

1:12:38yeah I wish they would like them to do

1:12:40that too I i would consider buying one

1:12:43I've never owned one well actually I

1:12:44mean I haven't

1:12:45old one that somebody gave me but um I

1:12:47never purchased one and i feel like i

1:12:51might be in the market for one like if I

1:12:53if I go to which I'm kind of leaning

1:12:55towards right now is getting a macbook

1:12:57pro again you know I just this is what

1:13:02the IP that imac upstairs in that meant

1:13:04that ancient macbook pro aren't gonna

1:13:06last long either so and I mostly just

1:13:08need the need a server like a media

1:13:10server and so I would definitely

1:13:12consider getting money for that

1:13:16alright let me take a break and thank

1:13:19our next sponsor it's our good friends

1:13:21at audible.com audible.com has an

1:13:24unmatched selection of audiobooks and is

1:13:29now used to think I used to think about

1:13:30it was a place where you go to get audio

1:13:32books but they have much more than that

1:13:35now they have tons of original audio

1:13:37shows including news comedy and more it

1:13:41is in some ways sort of like Netflix for

1:13:43audio it really is it they've got an

1:13:45amazing selection and stuff and you can

1:13:48get a 30-day free trial by going to

1:13:51audible.com / talk show if you want to

1:13:54listen to it audible has they have audio

1:13:57books from virtually every genre you can

1:13:59imagine

1:14:00anytime anywhere and audio books have

1:14:03been around for a while many comic books

1:14:05on tape

1:14:06I mean that's how long I mean that I've

1:14:07been familiar with them but it's just

1:14:09one of those things that is exploded in

1:14:11popularity with digital because you know

1:14:15tapes are a little bit of a pain in the

1:14:16ass

1:14:17digital you know you could skip around

1:14:19you can have stuff read at a different

1:14:21speed and the book industry has really

1:14:24embraced it's no longer an afterthought

1:14:26a whole bunch of popular books are read

1:14:30by the author's themselves which adds a

1:14:32totally extra dimension to the text just

1:14:35a really cool idea if you think about it

1:14:37or else what otherwise if they're often

1:14:40read by like you know famous actors and

1:14:44actresses and stuff like that people

1:14:46with really great voices and audible.com

1:14:50makes it easy to take risks and try new

1:14:52authors and and genres without regret

1:14:55because they offer what they call their

1:14:56great listen guarantee if you start

1:15:15for podcast because they know it is why

1:15:16they sponsor podcast because if you're

1:15:18listening to me tell you about

1:15:19audible.com by definition you obviously

1:15:22listen to spoken word content and

1:15:26therefore you're in you know right there

1:15:28in the target audience for them i would

1:15:30i would wager that there's a higher

1:15:32percentage of talk to your listeners who

1:15:34listen to podcasts then there are who

1:15:37sleep on mattresses it's probably a

1:15:39better fit even than casper have you

1:15:41know because some number of you probably

1:15:43just sleep on the floor but if you're

1:15:45listening to me again to you listen to

1:15:47podcast so if you have more time to fill

1:15:50with more audible content audio content

1:15:52go to audible.com / talk show get your

1:15:54free sponsorship my thanks to them for

1:15:57sponsoring this show what do you think

1:15:59there's a higher percentage of talks

1:16:00your listeners who who listen to

1:16:02podcasts or who sleep on a mattress i

1:16:09think it's gotta be it's gotta be

1:16:11listened to listen to i pod can i think

1:16:14i think what could good security or what

1:16:16were you know your numbers are in Japan

1:16:18no i don't but it's nonzero thee right

1:16:21right right

1:16:23uh-huh it's nonzero so I think as much

1:16:26as I can throw the whole thing off

1:16:28god bless Casper I love them and I think

1:16:30it's a great fit because almost

1:16:31everybody sleeps on a mattress and needs

1:16:33a new and eventually audible i think

1:16:35might be the the greatest fit for the

1:16:38podcast audience of all time because by

1:16:39definition everybody everybody listens

1:16:41to audio I mean in theory somebody I

1:16:44don't have transcripts every week so I

1:16:45mean in theory somebody could rig

1:16:47something up where they're making their

1:16:48own transcripts of the show and reading

1:16:50them but I i would guess that that

1:16:53number is smaller than the number of

1:16:54people who don't have a mattress

1:16:57they do transcripts are your show for

1:16:59when you do a live one I do yeah well

1:17:02yeah well somebody does it did that does

1:17:04it was that uh uh uh yes this time

1:17:09yeah already called one typed it up in

1:17:13exchange for their being allowed to

1:17:14publish it which was a good deal you

1:17:16know i thought i was beyond deal and I

1:17:19also pay a video for closed captions for

1:17:25those so that the video has closed

1:17:28captions and I forget what it is coupled

1:17:31yeah I don't know yeah it's a real you

1:17:33know it's a good not it's you know like

1:17:35this it's not free but it was it seemed

1:17:37like a no-brainer in terms of

1:17:39accessibility of my Twitter bio is is

1:17:43actually from that transcript

1:17:44oh really yeah because here i can't

1:17:47remember what was said about me this

1:17:49last time but there was a mention of me

1:17:52and then they they typed in the serenity

1:17:55typed in the crowd reaction which was

1:17:58laughter and some cause that's my that's

1:18:03my twitter bio I think that context was

1:18:05losing my introduction I said last year

1:18:07we had Phil Schiller and and though it

1:18:10is there was the i think was less than

1:18:12charitable environment this you know the

1:18:16goal you know it would be nice to be

1:18:17able to top it but one of these years it

1:18:20we're going to run out of room to top it

1:18:21and you know it's just going to open an

1:18:23orange and it's going to be bolts this

1:18:28year is not that dear i think that was

1:18:31it i think that was pretty close to what

1:18:32i said he's nice enough i mean i was

1:18:36heartfelt

1:18:37I mean I meant it that someday they're

1:18:41gonna have to put up with me

1:18:43yeah and we're gonna have a good show

1:18:45yeah look forward to that i'm interested

1:18:48to know what I'm assuming that this

1:18:51magic what the hell is called matchstick

1:18:54what do they call it our magic toolbar

1:18:57to defaults to just function keys when

1:19:01there's no other thing presented

1:19:04anything else that's been deliberately

1:19:06programmed yes yeah yes because o in

1:19:11Williams a freaky where he works now

1:19:16he's jumped around a lot was pointing

1:19:18out there's no like if you look at this

1:19:20like there's no escape key like that's

1:19:22the one thing that you that's on the

1:19:25toolbar that you would probably use in a

1:19:27regular application and like I think

1:19:30it's like Minecraft like there's no

1:19:32escape key you can play the game but

1:19:34there must be in much must just default

1:19:36to what's normally there if it's not

1:19:39specifically is defined I even in my

1:19:44days it when I was tell me getting into

1:19:47things to do my computer science

1:19:48assignments in the nineties on unix

1:19:51machines I've always been a BB edit user

1:19:54but I had to know if you can't you can't

1:19:57go through the old terminal and not

1:19:59eventually learn either emacs for them

1:20:01to some degree and at them is

1:20:05effectively unused I mean I don't think

1:20:07apple is all that concerned about people

1:20:08using them in a terminal but it's it you

1:20:11you hit the Escape key roughly 27

1:20:13hundred times admit it's like escape is

1:20:16how you do anything

1:20:17escape is like an orc amanda escapes

1:20:19switch modes it's it you know i just

1:20:22remember when somebody it pointed it out

1:20:24with the smart keyboard cover for the

1:20:26ipad that it doesn't have an escape key

1:20:28and somebody was like well how would you

1:20:30use them and it's like I got to do wish

1:20:33that they had put this guy use the

1:20:34escape key just did it get canceled

1:20:36things you know that yeah so I do wish

1:20:40they had an escape key but i don't know

1:20:42that it's I don't know that them users

1:20:43are on the front of apples on probably

1:20:47not just seemed headed for the mac

1:20:48though it seems it seems because at

1:20:49least with the ipad you could argue that

1:20:51there's no history of it because the

1:20:53software keyboard for the ipad doesn't

1:20:55have an escape either but it certainly

1:20:58seems unusual our friend Darth is

1:21:02already has an image up with the with

1:21:06the am with the magic tool bar and it's

1:21:10um it's like it's the time square you

1:21:13know message thing and it's just rolling

1:21:15rolling across courage

1:21:17alright i'll put a link to it

1:21:22they're OK is OK is quite funny i said

1:21:34this before it to me he's like the

1:21:36funniest like political cartoonist even

1:21:41going today and he was like all such but

1:21:44it's not they're not obviously not

1:21:46traditional political cartoons but they

1:21:49are political and they are funny and

1:21:51then you express comments the modern

1:21:54it's the modern equivalent right it's

1:21:56it's updated for the modern age carts

1:22:00tiny handed Trump photoshop like it when

1:22:06he does one for Trump it doesn't matter

1:22:07whether he mentions the hands or not he

1:22:09just always shooting system

1:22:11yeah and the funny part is is that Darth

1:22:16is also I he's I think he's really good

1:22:20at photoshop like you're at least he's

1:22:22good at what he does in Photoshop which

1:22:24isn't trying to fool you into thinking

1:22:25this is real but it's like it

1:22:29he- circle yeah yeah and I think he does

1:22:33with these things out in a minute or two

1:22:35I don't know he's crazy fast right he's

1:22:37crazy fast but they don't look like they

1:22:40would if i did it where you know clearly

1:22:41see where the lasso is to run around the

1:22:44hands like if I was doing it as quickly

1:22:47as he did you still see the marching

1:22:49ants around the selection i would just

1:22:51draw that and I think it's great shot

1:22:54what other stuff that Apple might

1:23:00announce this week like they could do

1:23:03like that something like their airport

1:23:07stuff is out of date would they tie that

1:23:09together with their you know home stereo

1:23:12speaker amazon echo type thing that's a

1:23:19good question i mean i've heard that

1:23:21thing is it is out there and and being

1:23:24field-tested I wasn't thinking that it

1:23:29was ready to go yet

1:23:30but I don't know but it seems like I

1:23:33don't either

1:23:33that would maybe help explain why

1:23:35they're having an event if there is

1:23:37something actually new to unveil right i

1:23:41mean the timing you know the timing

1:23:42right before the holidays would be good

1:23:43right if they actually are able to make

1:23:45it i mean how they kept it from leaking

1:23:47who knows but you know

1:23:50yeah that's a good question made in the

1:23:52USA

1:23:53I don't know probably got over that

1:23:56guy's been doing more than we thought I

1:24:00don't know but it's you know i would

1:24:01like to see it I don't know what else to

1:24:03say about it other than that it you know

1:24:06seems like maybe my understand my

1:24:09understanding was that it it was a not

1:24:13that long ago that people were given

1:24:19some units to try out so that doesn't

1:24:22seem like quite enough time like if they

1:24:23found like a real problem it doesn't

1:24:25seem like enough time to turn it around

1:24:27and do something I mean this seemed like

1:24:30like real alpha sort of stuff but I

1:24:35don't know but it sounds like you know

1:24:37even if it's a short event it seems like

1:24:38that might have room for something like

1:24:40that yeah I link to a thing

1:24:46have you seen this where there was like

1:24:47at the widespread internet outage this

1:24:49week you know I sort of slept right

1:24:52through it but me no huge parts of the

1:24:55internet are unavailable

1:24:56it was during the morning in the east

1:24:58and in some of the afternoon so yeah it

1:25:01seems as though wherever you know

1:25:03wherever during fireball is hosted seem

1:25:05to avoid x I didn't seem to get any

1:25:07complaints that people couldn't reach

1:25:09daring fireball but a whole bunch of

1:25:11whole bunch of big internet sites are

1:25:13unavailable because there is an attack

1:25:16on the DNS system and when dns goes down

1:25:19pretty much everything goes down and the

1:25:22gist of the attack which is interesting

1:25:24is that it was a bunch of like Internet

1:25:27of Things devices like like webcams and

1:25:30just internet-connected cameras and

1:25:33speakers and stuff like that made by

1:25:35these chinese companies that have all

1:25:37have like the same password the same

1:25:39password like look what I got not make

1:25:42making this attack up

1:25:44and added there's like a botnet that

1:25:45just just slowly but methodically search

1:25:48the internet for like it

1:25:50are you one of these cameras now are you

1:25:53one of these cameras are thousands and

1:25:56thousands and thousands of times but

1:25:57then eventually found a yes right noted

1:26:01the address and then kept going and then

1:26:03when they wanted to turn on the attack

1:26:04just told him all of these cameras to to

1:26:07do it you know distributed

1:26:09denial-of-service attack on dns servers

1:26:12anyway seems to me like a lot of these

1:26:14internet things of Things devices aren't

1:26:17all that secure or not and that maybe

1:26:20you know that I just link before the

1:26:22show started to it a two year or a year

1:26:25old story about the device makers

1:26:28complaining that Apple's home kit you

1:26:30know home kit was slow to make

1:26:32peripherals for because Apple has

1:26:33stringent security requirements

1:26:36hmm maybe that makes a lot more sense

1:26:38now don't all use the same password

1:26:44basket that's our stringent security

1:26:47requirement number one breaking and I

1:26:52mean i have i've got i know the only

1:26:54thing I've got is this one camera and I

1:26:56don't think it's one of those but it you

1:26:59know I don't even know how I would tell

1:27:01you come in your office and attacks you

1:27:04yes it was growling the other day but i

1:27:07don't think i think that was unrelated i

1:27:10don't know i don't have any other things

1:27:11to expect on this event

1:27:13ah yeah do you just not gonna be that

1:27:17big you know I think you know what you

1:27:19so yes so this is this is happening at

1:27:20the campus at the smaller yes it is that

1:27:23tell ya that will almost certainly be

1:27:27the last town hall event everything

1:27:30barring some kind of surprised emergency

1:27:33event sort of like the antenna gate or

1:27:35something like that i don't i don't see

1:27:36you know I'd they even said at the last

1:27:38one that this would probably that the

1:27:40last one was probably going to be the

1:27:42last town hall event so this one I think

1:27:45is almost certainly maybe they'll do you

1:27:48think that maybe they'll let us rip out

1:27:49the chairs

1:27:51they did that had no i think it was in

1:27:57Philadelphia is Veterans Stadium which

1:27:59is no longer there is a parking lot so

1:28:01built-in mic 1971 the bat as we called

1:28:05it lovingly was the home of the

1:28:07philadelphia eagles and the philadelphia

1:28:08phillies 4 I don't 20-some years you

1:28:11know we're growing up we had I only

1:28:13remember these came from but I now you

1:28:15mention that we had a couple of bleacher

1:28:17seats

1:28:18I mean I don't not bench seats but like

1:28:20wooden seats from something i'm thinking

1:28:24maybe the Jets yeah that's possible

1:28:26stadium

1:28:26yeah I'll bet before they built the

1:28:28meadowlands right right so they let i

1:28:31forget what I think was a phillies game

1:28:33was the last game in there is i forget

1:28:35it i actually forget if they were

1:28:37allowing fans to take the seats or if

1:28:40fans just did did it on our own like

1:28:43that but the guys working himself freely

1:28:46gave me with a ratchet set and just

1:28:48started taking the seat maybe they'll

1:28:50let us do that at town hall and take

1:28:52like a student here

1:28:53yeah taken recently we we not only do we

1:28:55use so we have those seats and then the

1:28:57other thing that we had were when they

1:28:59made the movie the natural

1:29:06in order to make it look like the the

1:29:13stands were fold they had these like

1:29:14like cardboard people that they put in

1:29:17and then they just like they'd

1:29:19interspersed real people here and there

1:29:21and make it look like a real crowd and

1:29:23so somehow i don't know how we got these

1:29:25but we had like cardboard people from

1:29:26that movie and they said we put them we

1:29:28put in those chairs for the meadowlands

1:29:30or whether from you know whatever was

1:29:32before the melons wouldn't because thats

1:29:35quiet know they had cardboard people for

1:29:37that i think is a common trick is it

1:29:39wasn't it isn't the story that in the

1:29:41medal ceremony in star wars that most of

1:29:43the people most of the rebels world

1:29:45where cardboard cutouts where they call

1:29:48it was a carburetor was it was at a

1:29:50mapping I don't know I don't know one or

1:29:52the other because that would have been a

1:29:53mapping but I couldn't tell you

1:29:56yeah that's pretty cool so I'm I'm maybe

1:30:02I should take a big suitcase with me

1:30:04yeah I should then it would W heart are

1:30:08carrying whenever funny trying to put a

1:30:10chair from down all into the x-ray

1:30:12machine and tried to convince they're

1:30:15trying to convince the flavors that you

1:30:16just just get the you know get the

1:30:19concierge people hella flores this will

1:30:21fit the overhead no problem they are

1:30:22they are small seats they might fit in

1:30:25the overhead

1:30:27well again I don't know how are they

1:30:31keeping them in there i assume they're

1:30:33keeping infinite loop and yes they are

1:30:36absolutely the internet loop camp there

1:30:38so they're so overflowing with employees

1:30:42and so need office space that i don't i

1:30:45don't even know how their eye they have

1:30:47a bunch of interim buildings in

1:30:51cupertino I mean I don't know how

1:30:52interment aaron is but i forget what the

1:30:58reason was i but i know i just know that

1:31:03there are Apple buildings in cupertino

1:31:06that all you would never even guess

1:31:08where Apple buildings it's not even

1:31:09because necessarily they're like secret

1:31:11like it's you know it's not like the

1:31:12project titan team or something like

1:31:14that just people working on stuff with

1:31:16that that there's no more room

1:31:18in infinite loop and the new campuses

1:31:20and open and so they're just you know

1:31:22anything

1:31:23you know I think if you own an office

1:31:24building in cupertino it's like salad

1:31:27days

1:31:29no I so I think my understanding is that

1:31:31infinite loop will remain fully occupied

1:31:33that something there are certainly some

1:31:34people they're moving to the new office

1:31:36or the new building but yeah they're

1:31:38gonna take up all the space

1:31:40well it seems like they might have used

1:31:41for Town Hall them yeah because I'm sure

1:31:43that you still have team meetings in

1:31:45there and stop fucking up so they might

1:31:47need the seeds i think they could have

1:31:50standing me try it just see what happens

1:31:55i don't even know why I want the seats

1:31:57there so they're very small and

1:31:58uncomfortable so I don't even know why I

1:32:00want 1i just like the idea of like me

1:32:03Jason snap i'll take them all right move

1:32:06sure that our report could probably get

1:32:08easily

1:32:08oh yeah Dalrymple yeah he probably got

1:32:10three already

1:32:12it's that's almost certainly broken that

1:32:15feel already breaking news we've got

1:32:20apples as we're recording the apples

1:32:22quarterly finally yeah that's right yeah

1:32:25forgot about that coming up

1:32:27I don't know that they had a business in

1:32:29I think they're doomed

1:32:34this just says doomed well that's it i'm

1:32:37just reading too many cooks remarks

1:32:39timko tantric Tim could not be more

1:32:42excited quote quote about iphone 7 7

1:32:46plus demand which outstrip supply that's

1:32:49you know no numbers applied to that

1:32:51yeah yeah it's your iPhone's above

1:32:56estimates yeah looks like they're a

1:32:58little bit above but they're still down

1:33:00year-over-year 45 million but he added a

1:33:03a consensus was 43 million so they sold

1:33:05next r2 million mac sales for 4.9

1:33:10million down from 5.7 but it's just like

1:33:13the whole reason that part of the reason

1:33:15that I'd was willing to record the show

1:33:18before this result says I didn't expect

1:33:20these results to be that exciting and

1:33:22part of it is just like we've just spent

1:33:24at 90 minutes talking about how every

1:33:26single mackinaw lineup is outdated any

1:33:29alright everybody you know so that

1:33:31they get shocked i don't think it's a

1:33:32sign of problems with the mac that sales

1:33:35are slightly down and it's almost

1:33:36shocking that they were they weren't

1:33:38down more

1:33:39yeah definitely he says that the Tim

1:33:44Cook says they're thrilled with the camp

1:33:45customer response to Apple watch series

1:33:472 and iPhone 7 and 7 plus but why the

1:33:50other reason that this quarter is not

1:33:52that interesting is this quarter ended

1:33:53at the end of september's so the only

1:33:55iphone 7 sales that are even comp you

1:33:58know it counted are the like initial

1:34:00opening weekend sales

1:34:02yes so I don't think there's anything

1:34:05all that interesting here every selling

1:34:08price for the iphone is up but down for

1:34:11both the ipad on the mac he know I think

1:34:13that makes sense because it is that's

1:34:15what I think it makes sense because i

1:34:16think most of the people who are buying

1:34:17a mac or the people who are not gonna

1:34:20say uninformed but they don't even care

1:34:22you know about whether it's a year old

1:34:24chipset or something like that

1:34:26mhm I wouldn't be surprised I would

1:34:27expect that the average selling price of

1:34:30the mac is going to go up next time we

1:34:31hear from the man that there's a lot of

1:34:35people waiting here let me just take a

1:34:40break here it is a good time and thank

1:37:48mailchimp

1:37:49what else we got I got a google pixel oh

1:37:54yeah what about that a little bit have

1:37:57any questions what questions you have

1:37:58for me i've been using it for about well

1:38:00you were doing a little own Syrian

1:38:04assistant comparison for you I have been

1:38:07yes you wanna talk about that are you

1:38:09saving that for right now I slow out I

1:38:13no idea it's hard to do I don't know if

1:38:15I'm gonna do like a big massive

1:38:17comparison but i have to say like just

1:38:19keeping both devices with me and doing

1:38:21the same things on both devices

1:38:23I I I do admit i think that overall i

1:38:27think google assistant is a little bit

1:38:30ahead of Siri in some ways and and the

1:38:33main way that I think it's a head is

1:38:36just in the way that Google web search

1:38:38is the best web search that there's

1:38:40still ahead of being and you know

1:38:43DuckDuckGo and other search engines but

1:38:45just things that you expect to find

1:38:47through traditional google where you

1:38:48just type google.com in a browser and

1:38:50type of thing in a box and you expect to

1:38:53get the right answer from google google

1:38:55assistant can answer those type of

1:38:57things in general better than Cirie but

1:39:02for the things i actually asked from

1:39:04Siri and Google assistant I they're a

1:39:07lot closer than to me that the

1:39:08conventional wisdom would have you think

1:39:11that the conventional wisdom to me is

1:39:13that google is kicking ass in this area

1:39:16and that Apple is serious a piece of

1:39:19useless garbage right i'm not i'm not

1:39:22saying it sounds like hyperbole but I

1:39:24mean I see this all the time i see

1:39:26people writing this this just seems to

1:39:28be the assumption that a lot of people

1:39:29have and it just isn't backed up in real

1:39:32life i did an example on saturday i know

1:39:37that it was saturday and i was I

1:39:38couldn't remember i don't know if you

1:39:40noticed I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan and I

1:39:43hadn't made in I had heard that I could

1:39:45remember when Dallas played again I was

1:39:47an honest question I was pretty sure and

1:39:49add but I asked both devices when does

1:39:53dallas play and I didn't say the Dallas

1:39:56Cowboys I just said Wednesday Alice play

1:39:58and I'm recalling correctly I google

1:40:05assistant gave me a like a a Dallas

1:40:10Cowboy score from two weeks ago which is

1:40:13not does it was not the answer to the

1:40:14question even though it and it shows you

1:40:17what it thinks that her dad heard me say

1:40:18when does dallas but Syria on the other

1:40:21hand I said Wednesday display said which

1:40:23team and offered me the the dallas

1:40:26mavericks dallas cowboys and whatever

1:40:29their ice hockey team is and I tapped

1:40:31dallas cowboys and then serie correctly

1:40:34told me the Dallas plays the

1:40:35Philadelphia Eagles next sunday at

1:40:37eight-thirty on sunday night football

1:40:39correct answer

1:40:42I mean and a lot of my examples that I

1:40:44find where serie works better than both

1:40:47Alexa and google now seem to be

1:40:50sports-based it seems like yeah I was

1:40:52gonna say it does seem like they they

1:40:54have to spend a bunch of time making

1:40:56sure that sports stuff works well yeah

1:40:58and part of it is that the I don't know

1:41:00part of it is Syrian what series says

1:41:02you and part of it is that they've apple

1:41:04has partnered with yahoo sports and

1:41:05yahoo sports seems to have not just good

1:41:08information but it seems to have it a

1:41:10structured in a way that Siri can really

1:41:13take advantage of it and you know so

1:41:17maybe I know my perspective as somebody

1:41:19who's relatively big sports fan is you

1:41:22know maybe better suited to series

1:41:24sports focus than people who aren't but

1:41:26i just think that the general idea that

1:41:28the google assistant is way way way

1:41:30ahead of Syria is just not true and any

1:41:33other thing that i just linked to the

1:41:34other day was a MK BHD marques Brownlee

1:41:39who does these amazing ya mutha ya know

1:41:42that he's like you know when i hear

1:41:43about people who are like professional

1:41:45youtubers and I see some of the videos

1:41:46and I cannot believe that this is a

1:41:48professional and then I see his and I'm

1:41:50like well he's like he was like born to

1:41:53be on TV

1:41:54yeah yeah and he does al the video work

1:41:57himself I've seen them doing it in the

1:41:59hands on areas at the apple event and

1:42:01it's amazing it's like he's a one-man

1:42:03studio it is absolutely amazing watching

1:42:05at work but anyway he had a comparison

1:42:09serie versus a google assistant and it

1:42:13was remarkable to me how many of them

1:42:14were exactly the same on both in

1:42:16response time and accuracy

1:42:19yeah and I thought you know and i think

1:42:22overall you surprised

1:42:24and you know what i found very

1:42:25interesting was i assumed that assistant

1:42:27was much better at the contextual

1:42:30questions where you asked one question

1:42:31you ask the following question that

1:42:33plays off that previous question I

1:42:36always ask i just assumed that the

1:42:38system would be much better and it

1:42:40actually i think it is better but um I

1:42:43was what i was really surprised that

1:42:44Siri on any of them at all right i just

1:42:47assumed that wouldn't that from question

1:42:49because I've never actually experienced

1:42:51about personally but I haven't tried it

1:42:54recently and everything it seemed like

1:42:56every time I tried it before it looks

1:42:58like it doesn't just like it's being hit

1:43:00on the head each time it doesn't

1:43:00remember what the previous question was

1:43:02right and what we're talking about would

1:43:04be sequences of queries like if you said

1:43:07hey what what is that

1:43:09hey dingus what's the Dallas Cowboys

1:43:11record and then after you get the answer

1:43:13then if you said when do they play next

1:43:15regular your query is when do they play

1:43:18next

1:43:18and you're assuming that the assistant

1:43:20can pick up that they means the team you

1:43:22just asked about 10 seconds ago

1:43:24mhm yeah i think it was he was talking

1:43:26about presidents or something like that

1:43:28and you know like how everybody was when

1:43:30was so-and-so born and how tall and then

1:43:33and then how tall is he

1:43:34who's the president united states oh

1:43:36yeah yeah alright you know and i think

1:43:39google assistant got that one right and

1:43:41Cirie did not likes it i think Cirie

1:43:44humorously I the google assistant said

1:43:46you know Barack Obama's six-foot-one

1:43:47inches tall and and serious gave him the

1:43:50height of the United States of America

1:43:52not perfect but there were some basic

1:43:59ones they like you know what's the

1:44:01weather where they that the exact same

1:44:05speed was always almost striking you'd

1:44:08almost think that they were hooked up to

1:44:10the same back-end given how how similar

1:44:12the response times where mhm an apple

1:44:15provided serie provided a little bit

1:44:17more

1:44:18like charts and graphs kind of stuff

1:44:22yeah and maybe that stuff comes from

1:44:23wolfram alpha I'm not sure

1:44:28yeah well there's one thing that mkbhd

1:44:31missed in his comparison and I wasn't

1:44:35fully aware of it either I kind of I I

1:44:37kind of knew this vaguely especially

1:44:41because i've been using their pods for

1:44:42the last month but then somebody on

1:44:44Twitter called it out i don't know who

1:44:46I'm sorry for not giving you credit but

1:44:47which is that Siri responds differently

1:44:51based on how you invoke it and so if you

1:44:55doing here Lee by voice with a hey

1:44:57dingus you get more back

1:45:01auto audio through audio then you do if

1:45:05you use the home button if you use the

1:45:06home button

1:45:07serie makes the assumption that you're

1:45:09ready to touch things so just for

1:45:12example my example for the other name i

1:45:14asked about when quote when does dallas

1:45:17play unquote it gave me a on-screen

1:45:20listing of which wich dallas and the

1:45:23three teams and I could tap it but if I

1:45:25was doing it through air pods it would

1:45:26be an audio prompt ok I wanted

1:45:31well we would just ask you like

1:45:33goodnight would name that I think so i

1:45:34could try it and get back get pregnant

1:45:37but you don't do it right now but i

1:45:42think i've seen that to where I have

1:45:44another at least one other Amy in my

1:45:48context and so it's like if i say text

1:45:51amy blah blah blah

1:45:53if I'm doing it through the air pods i

1:45:55can i can answer just audio audio only

1:45:58that I want to you know bring my wife

1:46:00not the other one

1:46:01yeah so that's an interesting difference

1:46:04but it's just i i really do think that

1:46:06the conventional wisdom on that we're

1:46:09serious stands compared to the

1:46:11state-of-the-art is way off

1:46:12it may be behind I wouldn't i probably

1:46:15wouldn't dispute that overall but it's

1:46:18so multivariate in so many different

1:46:20areas and they're clearly some areas

1:46:22where Syria is actually a head that I'd

1:46:24i do think that they're all in the same

1:46:25ballpark at this point yeah yeah i think

1:46:29i mean i know and i don't have a device

1:46:32currently that what we'll do that

1:46:35assistant so I haven't played around

1:46:37with it in a long time and you know I'm

1:46:40just relying out what everybody says it

1:46:42but it sure really is like conventional

1:46:44wisdom that it google is so much far

1:46:47ahead and it does not seem to be really

1:46:50that far ahead

1:46:51yeah I would almost say that if anything

1:46:54the conventional wisdom isn't so much

1:46:56under estimating serious overestimating

1:46:58google assistant em and again for like

1:47:02trivia questions it is a little better

1:47:04because it's just you know like it if

1:47:07you just treat it as a vocal input for

1:47:08the google search box but for a lot of

1:47:10contextual stuff it's not

1:47:12yeah and it doesn't know things like a I

1:47:16could never a current route couldn't

1:47:18figure how to take a screenshot on my

1:47:19pixel and asking Google assistant was

1:47:22absolutely no help

1:47:24yeah I really you know I'm not shocked

1:47:27that it wasn't to help but it does seem

1:47:29like if you're supposed to be able to

1:47:31talk to your device

1:47:32it seems like the device you know and

1:47:34eventually the it should be the case

1:47:36that you can if you're if you have a

1:47:37phone that has a bouquet assistant you

1:47:39should be able to say how do i take a

1:47:41screenshot and it should be able to tell

1:47:42you thinking yeah yeah yeah definitely

1:47:45that's it seems like thats that's

1:47:48exactly what it should get right because

1:47:52that's what they have complete control

1:47:53over all right i mean that kind of you

1:47:56know it's like you know spotlight for

1:47:57but by voice yeah the trick with taking

1:48:01a screenshot on the the android devices

1:48:04is that you press the power button and

1:48:06volume down but you have to press them

1:48:10at the same time maybe not quite it you

1:48:12know like the hundredth of a second same

1:48:14time but if you press one before the

1:48:15other it doesn't work like you press

1:48:18volume down even slightly before the

1:48:19power you immediately start changing the

1:48:22the volume and if you turn power and

1:48:25don't quite hit volume down within the

1:48:27very slips small fraction of a second it

1:48:30empowers you know brings up the you want

1:48:32to turn your phone off thing

1:48:33yeah i had i wasn't sure how to reboot

1:48:37the iphone 7 because it went Carandang

1:48:42both got theirs I hit that was setting

1:48:43this up restoring their their backups to

1:48:45their phones and at one point one of

1:48:48them froze and i had a foursome restart

1:48:52it and yeah it's now it's now it's the

1:48:55power doesn't know it's the now its

1:48:57volume button

1:48:58yeah in the power button yeah I think

1:49:01you hold down both human and power or

1:49:04something yeah and i think i ended up

1:49:05just doing it by accident because I was

1:49:06just trying everything is this i

1:49:08couldn't understand why it wasn't

1:49:09working when I was doing the home button

1:49:12in the and the power button

1:49:16what other you have any other pixel

1:49:18questions um I will say well yeah you

1:49:22know everybody seems to think that it

1:49:23looks I don't think it looks that great

1:49:24but how does it feel and real life it's

1:49:29I got the smaller 1i got the 5-inch one

1:49:31and I realized that FDI forget how many

1:49:33android phones i've had over the last

1:49:35few years but they've all been way too

1:49:37big for my taste and this is the nurse

1:49:39this is the first android phone i've

1:49:40ever purchased that is either not a

1:49:44piece of junk and not too big it's ok it

1:49:47is clearly a little bigger than the

1:49:49iphone 4.7 inch iphones I mean not just

1:49:53you know looking at it but it feels a

1:49:55little bigger it is a little wider which

1:49:57is the biggest difference but it's

1:49:58nowhere near as wide as an iphone 7 plus

1:50:01and so it's you know I could live with

1:50:03this is the size of my phone so I I

1:50:05appreciate that this that's the small

1:50:07one and it's bigger than the iphone 7

1:50:09yeah it's exactly as much bigger as you

1:50:11would think given that this debt that

1:50:13display is five inches instead of 4.7

1:50:17inches yeah and when you just look at it

1:50:19and you can kind of see that it has a

1:50:21chin and forehead of roughly the same

1:50:23proportions as an iphone you know just

1:50:25that basic you know the fact that

1:50:27looking at front on it clearly i don't

1:50:31even III could I think it's almost

1:50:32admirable that they're not denying it

1:50:34that it looks like an iphone it feels

1:50:36exactly as much bigger as you would

1:50:37think given that the displays a little

1:50:39bit yeah it is interesting that it that

1:50:43that's the stage

1:50:45that's what's going on in that market

1:50:47because we have some friends and

1:50:49in the her father recently bought his

1:50:54first iphone I'm after having android

1:50:57for years because he wanted you got the

1:50:59SEC because he wanted to smartphone and

1:51:00he could simply could not get one in the

1:51:02android market right now it's nowhere

1:51:04near sec sighs so there's yeah no yeah

1:51:06no clearly not a gaping hole in the

1:51:08android market at that size but yeah you

1:51:11know this is the tomb III think sony has

1:51:13had some phones roughly the size that

1:51:16are considered high end android phones

1:51:18but I've never used one

1:51:19so you know but what I find that really

1:51:21funny because that's always one of the

1:51:22things that people say the the advantage

1:51:24of the Android ecosystem is that you

1:51:27have so many different manufacturers

1:51:30that you're going to get a phone any

1:51:31kind of phone that you want and any kind

1:51:34of phone that you want as long as it's

1:51:35not a 4-inch screen right as long as its

1:51:39giant yeah right

1:51:41this thing's huge I don't know quite

1:51:45what that I you know I don't know I've

1:51:47always i think part of that is too is

1:51:49that they needed for battery life of the

1:51:50battery life is in general works on

1:51:52android then unless and ok i'm not quite

1:51:56sure though I will say battery life on

1:51:59this device is fine

1:52:00it seems exactly equivalent to the

1:52:02iphone 7 it with extended use well it's

1:52:06a little bit thicker one end right

1:52:08because it doesn't have a camera doesn't

1:52:09have a camera but it ended its like

1:52:11which shaped right I can't believe that

1:52:13nobody commented on this at the resort

1:52:15debate but where r activate the

1:52:16automatic product introduction where I

1:52:19was like if it doesn't have a camera

1:52:20bump but the it's thicker on one end and

1:52:23the other is it a web shape or is it

1:52:25like a step design where the glass part

1:52:28is thicker and the other part is thinner

1:52:30and there's a step in between any answer

1:52:32is it's a wedge shape a gent you know

1:52:34it's obviously not quite as wedge-shaped

1:52:36is like a macbook air right there is a

1:52:39wedge shape to it

1:52:40mhm I don't love that I mean people yeah

1:52:42well people were saying oh look there's

1:52:44no excuse nor camera bahaha and I

1:52:46thought well wait a minute there has to

1:52:47be you know you know I either people

1:52:49were wrong about the fact that there had

1:52:51to be a camera bump because of physics

1:52:53this or right or it has to be thicker

1:52:56one of the other it's up to you know I

1:52:59it's sort of an apple-like but I think

1:53:01camera bumps are on

1:53:02like I can't decide what would be more

1:53:04on Ethel I'm right right

1:53:06the camera bump or a wedge shape it does

1:53:09feel a little little on top heavy in my

1:53:12hand because it's thicker at the top

1:53:14than bottom but not yet much and even

1:53:16when I and maybe it's my imagination

1:53:17almost because when i balance it on my

1:53:19finger the balance point is only

1:53:21slightly towards the top instead of the

1:53:23Centrepointe yeah and the fact that it

1:53:26doesn't have a camera bump is nice i

1:53:29will say i mean i don't have a camera

1:53:31bumpy there but the touch ID sensor is

1:53:34extremely fast is it look good if it's

1:53:37not as fast as Apple's it's close to his

1:53:39fast it takes suspiciously shorter time

1:53:43to train an apple and i just reset and I

1:53:48find another iphone the other day and

1:53:50went through it again so the memory it's

1:53:52not it is fresh it definitely takes

1:53:54fewer lift lift and put it back down to

1:53:57get your finger registered with the

1:53:58pixel fingerprint sensor so either

1:54:01either they're actually training it a

1:54:03lot faster than apple or their their

1:54:06loser about right but I don't know I you

1:54:10know but I can certainly haven't had you

1:54:11know I've tried using other fingers and

1:54:13it never falsely unlocks the phone so it

1:54:16seems alright cameras good they have

1:54:20yeah so it seems like it seems like I

1:54:22mean some people were questioning I mean

1:54:25everybody seemed to think that it was

1:54:26you know at least as good as the iphone

1:54:27want it in some people maybe thought it

1:54:30was even better and then the other

1:54:31people were saying how can you say that

1:54:32look at this look at yellow this picture

1:54:34is and I was quick and see won't see any

1:54:36yellow with that picture of an order

1:54:38talking about you know I've taken some

1:54:40side-by-side I've gone out and sometimes

1:54:41in the daytime and and I had both phones

1:54:43with me and there was a theater around

1:54:45the corner from our house that that just

1:54:48got just blown up

1:54:50I guess didn't blow it up but they

1:54:51ripped it apart now it's a big hole in

1:54:53the ground which I for some reason find

1:54:55an interesting thing to take pictures of

1:54:57and they you know they both look very

1:55:02good to me I it is you know it sad you

1:55:04know I can't say that one is better than

1:55:06the other but they both look good every

1:55:08once in a while one will look a little

1:55:09better than the other i find that the

1:55:11pictures are way closer between the two

1:55:13than a lot of the examples I link to

1:55:15last week i linked

1:55:17a whole bunch of google pixel reviews

1:55:18and most of them had like side-by-side

1:55:20comparisons with the iphone 7 camera and

1:55:22some of them made the iphone 7 pictures

1:55:25look very washed out to me when I would

1:55:27just say the color it just seemed like

1:55:29they were much brighter like if somebody

1:55:30took a picture of a field of grass

1:55:31side-by-side that the pixel one look

1:55:34bright green and very nice and that the

1:55:36iphone one looked a little drab which

1:55:38doesn't match my experience with the

1:55:41iphone camera at all and I really makes

1:55:43me wonder whether what processing they

1:55:47were doing with the images to get them

1:55:48from here to there in my use

1:55:51side-by-side that the colors are very

1:55:53very similar between the two cameras

1:55:55I mean have a nice and I know what I'm

1:55:59not good i'm also definitely not am

1:56:02enough of a camera person to I mean like

1:56:05i've said this before but I feel like

1:56:07the camera topped out for me it at the

1:56:09the iphone for my favorite feature of

1:56:13the whole phone i think is that there's

1:56:15a system-wide shortcut where if you

1:56:18double tap the power button it puts you

1:56:20in camera mode

1:56:21no matter what you're doing so if the

1:56:23phone is often locked double tap it and

1:56:25you're in that quickly i just did it in

1:56:27you're in

1:56:27let's grab if you're using the phone

1:56:30like you're just reading your email and

1:56:32you want to take a picture of something

1:56:33quick double tap that button and you

1:56:36jump the camera mode and the camera mode

1:56:37does startup about as fast as you could

1:56:40reasonably expect ready to take a

1:56:41picture that's a really cool feature and

1:56:45I think on the iphone it's i I've just

1:56:49started getting used to the lift to

1:56:51whatever they call it anything raised to

1:56:55raise the way the front way

1:56:57yes and of my favorite aspect of raised

1:56:59to wake with the iphone 7 is you raised

1:57:01to wake and if you want to take a

1:57:02picture you just slide the the lock

1:57:04screen to the left and you're in the

1:57:06camera

1:57:07yeah and so I've really gotten used to

1:57:09that so when my phone right if I see

1:57:11something I want to take a picture of

1:57:12quickly i can take it out of my pocket

1:57:14raised awake almost always turns on when

1:57:16I take out my pocket and just start

1:57:18sliding to the left anywhere i don't

1:57:21have to aim for like a little camera

1:57:22icon in the corner anything anymore love

1:57:25that feature i actually think that

1:57:28that's probably a little better than the

1:57:30double tap the button that this pixel

1:57:32has but when you're actually already in

1:57:34the phone and unlocked i think that the

1:57:36pixel she has actually quicker

1:57:39yeah having something Universal niggas

1:57:40you get you can swipe up and then but

1:57:43that's not as quick as double-tapping no

1:57:45no and it's also fraud

1:57:47you know sometimes doesn't work right

1:57:49right double-tapping and I was always

1:57:51working remember which app it is but

1:57:53there's an app that I use

1:57:55oh it's actually notes i have a like if

1:57:59I'm in a note and now it seems to be

1:58:02working maybe and maybe because maybe i

1:58:04am maybe that got fixed in the most

1:58:07recent update but I was having a hell of

1:58:08a time

1:58:09invoking the control center thing

1:58:11whatever that thing is called the bomb

1:58:12and notes i did the thing where you can

1:58:18connect the pixel to your iphone through

1:58:21a cable and the initial setup and it'll

1:58:23slip over what it can and you know this

1:58:26I i put a slack that we're both members

1:58:28of but write it

1:58:30it's it makes the pixel look like a pc

1:58:34to know the iphone and you

1:58:37that's what the adapters the adapters

1:58:38like a USB a theme so the iphone will

1:58:41give you the do you trust this computer

1:58:43prompt that it's supposed to make sure

1:58:44you're not getting hacked you know so so

1:58:47is this just for pictures know it it

1:58:51will do all sorts of things including

1:58:52your SMS messages and my messages

1:58:55wow if well here's the there is a catch

1:58:58the catch is why you're going through

1:59:00the setup i have my my iphone backups

1:59:04encrypted I think they tell you that if

1:59:08you'd like to sleep over all that stuff

1:59:09you have to you have to connect your

1:59:11connect your iphone to itunes and turn

1:59:14off backup encryptions or encrypt your

1:59:17backups and then it will be able to do

1:59:20it otherwise it will only be able to get

1:59:21your pictures and maybe something at one

1:59:25or two other things I was like thanks

1:59:27but no no thanks i'm not going to I'm

1:59:31not that interested in it so i did to

1:59:32have it slip over all my pictures and it

1:59:36it didn't get them all

1:59:37I don't really know what the hell

1:59:39happened but part of it i think is the

1:59:41fact that

1:59:41got that obvious that is why i think

1:59:44what is the problem is i have i found

1:59:45iCloud photo library on so however many

1:59:49tens of thousands of photos i have my

1:59:50overall I cloud library they're not all

1:59:53on my iPhone so it only grabbed some of

1:59:55the ones that are actually present and

1:59:57then the worst part was

1:59:57then the worst part was

2:00:00it took 1590 of them and the day that I

2:00:06did this was October 20th and it gave

2:00:09all 1590 of my photos the date of

2:00:11october 20th 2016 yeah and most of them

2:00:15where I think what happened I haven't

2:00:18done like a full investigation but i

2:00:19think what happened is that these were

2:00:20images where they didn't have the date

2:00:22in the EXIF data that the date was only

2:00:26the file date the filesystem date my

2:00:29phone my iphone knows exactly what date

2:00:31they were picked by you know on my mac

2:00:34everywhere I've had these photos like

2:00:35they they were in my iPhoto library from

2:00:39back when I photo was a thing I've had

2:00:41these photos

2:00:42most of them were like 10 years old a

2:00:43lot of them were the images that from

2:00:47until like two thousand six or so I was

2:00:48I think about 2006 I still shot a lot of

2:00:51images on 35 millimeter film with it

2:00:53with an SLR and what i would do is when

2:00:56I got those photos developed

2:00:57I would have them skiing i would have

2:00:59the photo development place scan them to

2:01:00a CD and a lot of them were those images

2:01:03and I just think that they didn't put XF

2:01:05data and I think but the dates just came

2:01:07from the dates on the CD you know that

2:01:09files had dates they just weren't like

2:01:11official met anyway google gave me 1600

2:01:14photos on that date and it was that that

2:01:17that was an Irish I i think i would have

2:01:23been better off I I don't know that to

2:01:26me that the upgrade from your phone is a

2:01:27little bit of a gimmick i don't know i

2:01:30think i would have been better off

2:01:30setting up fresh ok it took it took it

2:01:33from a backup or United you just have to

2:01:36connect your descendants turn off the

2:01:38option because it was probably the phone

2:01:41your iphone was thinking I I'm gonna

2:01:43give anything and encrypted backup

2:01:45yes exactly yeah right exactly so you

2:01:48have to yeah that's a I didn't know I

2:01:50never really thought about how that work

2:01:51but that's how it worked and I no

2:01:53interest in that I wasn't curious enough

2:01:55about how it work to do that yeah I

2:01:56didn't realize that anything else other

2:01:58than itunes could get your i'm gonna

2:02:01guess that makes sense if it's not

2:02:02encrypted but I mean right that I'm just

2:02:04never had any experience with that

2:02:05anything other than itunes getting stuff

2:02:08i mean obviously camera there's other

2:02:10camera snaps that can grab

2:02:12photos but i didn't know that like

2:02:15things like SMS messages were also

2:02:17possible what else finger poop

2:02:21fingerprint sensor on the back

2:02:23no good it is it's inconvenient as you

2:02:27would know I didn't do there's not a

2:02:29back

2:02:29yeah it's where the apple logo is on an

2:02:31iphone yeah it's you know it's not the

2:02:34worst but they do have to eat you

2:02:36you do have to fish around for it

2:02:37sometimes yeah and you can't I can't

2:02:41figure out why sometimes i can wake the

2:02:42phone by doing it and sometimes I can't

2:02:44I just is not as good as having the

2:02:47fingerprint sensor where Apple put it

2:02:49yeah now could be that I don't you know

2:02:52got a couple years of my phone

2:02:54experience and that's a little

2:02:56subjective but i don't think so what

2:03:01else material it's the aluminum is

2:03:04actually like more of a matte finish

2:03:06than apples it doesn't really feel as

2:03:09nice but I think it's less slippery so

2:03:11there's a practical advantage to it i

2:03:14think it's very cute i got the black one

2:03:15of course I think it's very strange that

2:03:18they named the color quite black like

2:03:20which is a very googly cutie thing when

2:03:23in fact it's not quite black at all in

2:03:25fact honest-to-god the better name for

2:03:27it would be not quite black because it's

2:03:30very very clearly just a dark gray and

2:03:33the display is black so we look at it

2:03:35especially in sunlight both on the front

2:03:38and the rear its it is definitely dark

2:03:41gray not black so it seems very funny to

2:03:45me that they named it quite black yeah

2:03:48maybe not quite black would be even

2:03:49funnier

2:03:50no I mean you know we'd be like a funny

2:03:51joke and more accurate

2:03:54I what else and other than that it's a

2:03:57very nice phone i do think that this

2:03:59oled display I've compared it the best

2:04:01comparison i think of is looking at

2:04:03Instagram and I look at the same photos

2:04:05on both phones on Instagram and

2:04:08especially in in kit to me in

2:04:11incandescent lighting meaning photos

2:04:13that are taken indoors

2:04:15at nighttime the I don't think it's it's

2:04:20not the camera because the these images

2:04:21are from Instagram it's the display it

2:04:24makes people look sort of yellowy it

2:04:26makes it the oled display to meet gets

2:04:29it's a very orangey yellow a color that

2:04:33looks on that doesn't look like to me

2:04:34what a room looks like in indoor

2:04:37lighting whereas the iphone does so I

2:04:39I'm still skeptical about oled as a

2:04:42replacement for lcds on on these devices

2:04:44and then last but not least i still

2:04:48really dislike android well i hope my

2:04:54pictures like look good on my magic

2:04:56toolbar and i kinda worried about that i

2:05:01will say this lie I would summarize it

2:05:03like this if I could run iOS on this

2:05:05device how I would not be as happy as i

2:05:08am with the iphone 7 but I this is the

2:05:10first android device i've ever used

2:05:11where I think I'd be fine and I wouldn't

2:05:14hate my life every day that I had to do

2:05:15if i could run iOS on this device it

2:05:18would be fine it is by far and away the

2:05:19nicest android phone i've ever used

2:05:21that's present I could you know i'd i

2:05:25would need the entire three-hour episode

2:05:26of the show to go through what i don't

2:05:28like about and right yeah well have a

2:05:32good time on thursday
