I am deaf smith and smith and we're the surface smiths welcome to episode one of to take to, take to take to refund the case record him this is one of those episodes where i can record it exactly as he recorded the first time is what we do at the different well normally after a record we have an after party but, well it's after recording doing after party and the author of this many people in bk uses of drinking during the podcast and that does happen, add to get so disgusted our guest today is the white walker is johnny what's johnny walker white walker. [0:55] That's because yesterday was season eight episode one of game of thrones season so we thought. We'd have some white walker i drank some white walker during the episode i can talk too much but game of thrones set it up to much but the whisky we are going to do, drink some well we do the rest of the episodes and we will talk about the whiskey after so that we don't normally do things his family child either its not hey guys what about the word of the week, so where did the week, i am free to use a guide because we're tired we have to do the whole episode i tired of talking about the camouflage clothing. Remind me ok so every time you hear the word fatigue take a sip of your favorite drinks with david. Invest why are there so to take twenty kg with my sleeve for tonight. [1:49] Alright so david you got the you got serve more than expected. You got a new segment you wanna talk about it that's right that discussion the weeks up since calling and i'm running a lot of scenarios at work that. Probably your firm with other people in the it world that we can discuss some so this week would you wanna touch scott's is, the expiry of support for windows two thousand eight and server and windows seven and organization should do about that. Should i bring okay with that. Well okay that's good podcasts lecture like yourself to dance in five years ago they been extended support for quite sometime now january twenty twenty sixth of jan fourteenth of i'm not mistaken they go extended support hands and that's it for getting free start a support is a better switch than hoping microsoft excel support. [2:51] What would you wanna be an old is anyways i doubt people did not sure okay so what about if you have some. Any suggestions what i should do have some service she needs to keep running for a little while are the physical and virtual. Oh ok flights from denver to atlanta reason for that is they got something called seal okay, he is a hardcore compatibility lists that's right so yeah guys gals and non binary folks that rode windows server two thousand eight. Navigate getting. Before two thousand manufactured yep three dicembre compatibility lists yeah other drivers and things like that the operating system can work on the hardware that's right, guess what. [3:39] The number is not available anymore can buy the hardware anymore and guess what hardware has evolved from sending lots of new technology stack two thousand it wouldnt have things like slack slides now been around for close to ten years though it, what's a lot of new technology to come into play so if you want to try to take your windows, server two thousand eight install the new hardware that because it was written the way way back then when they didn't have any knowledge of the future. Right did anyone else in a way that you are not time travelers right ugh. [4:16] It's not gonna run well hardware and might have issues most likely will have a few virtual i said. That's okay that's right because you love you can use new hardware for here. Virtualization host have windows server two thousand eight hundred after that so you may want to keep it on promise offer something why u the benefit of keeping promise you wanted to get out for a nap get off you want to make it hard to get to, add a medium jumpbox are some kind of multi centric service or some kind of, direction for remote into it and keep it isolated do not want that exposed to the internet and maybe it's only people in the building are in florida depart of the box so block everyone else have an access right, i had reduce the risk of something happening cuz less people can connect with exactly so tweet a really nice management right you mentioned asking how do we how do we approach dress measurements nervous david will look at, do things right probability times. The cost of something goes wrong with the impact impact the cost right so not a benefit of doing bye, isolating not in the app is reducing the probability of something happening or also disconnect sure if remove the office can't, get network access to it than half the people now feel scared. [5:44] Impact others less impact well in theory but really need to get off but if this is the cor app for your business, you're going to be here to get off of it after you've got something new york or expected going out of business of your work for one of those companies make sure resume is up to date and start offsite yeah exactly okay i can. You got another option will see if there's another option for the very end because windows server two thousand eight and windows seven clear the question was windows seven. [6:17] So i gotta start to commissions of a lot of work station set you can have the same heartbreak compatibility they're all machines so it's the opposite where compatibility view some of the machines really hard up stuff for working with a stand or turn on the harbor compatibility lists okay so let's see if so. Let's look at that still a bit differently the reason that people are staying in december two thousand eighteen is because it had a key application but could not. Run on your server is not the one i upgrade not the bank, mesa your right up an expectation is ghetto is just by new time, i would like the same serial number because you are applications at two can't run on wednesday. I think help most racist just because people are slowly started to leave your mood too slow self. Table fan and i would just be move faster if you can't start earlier but fred you're saying that in the previous version of this podcast that almost all applications are able to run dislike ninety eight percent you just have a small amount of work to do itself do that small i am working with those applications, and for this small amount of applications that can't live microsoft is offering ever size action solution. [7:39] Warszawa will talk about that separately so lots of ways to make application compatible to windows seven for the most part running windows ten they don't have the ring zero driver issues that we had going was seven applications running windows seven will run when i find hardware perspective. Hardware that runs windows seven can run windows ten for the most part with a few exceptions you may not believe things like i did things like that but you can still run by ozwald windows ten so what if he's good is if you bought a brand new computer but it'll still be good if play and then for both of windows server two thousand eight and windows seven. You can use use several really wanted i want a drama film that did no no no no. [8:30] When does the writ two thousand eight and windows seven. You can use, after microsoft azure what do you mean by that what do you mean by that will you move your application server or your desktop and remote into it and add your microsoft give me three years more support that one year, not yours but three years three support and state nice, add a set of stairs what he thinks david mike social people that are pending are bad send an xl microsoft's already standing, create update for three more years if i have them i don't know why right. [9:17] Is that if discussion week i think it s alright let's move into something else other than another new segment new excitement featuring concert i say yeah feature of the week so feature of the week. This week is a futurist it's going to be may twenty nineteen update also known as nineteen eighty one update yes. Add nineteen eight one update is. [9:48] We start the march code but he'll be out soon and feature that i think is important if it's out for that so this time they leaving release preview out there for a month instead of zero right. So sandbox sandbox is the future that i think is the most important feature ok and why is that david. What's a call to sandbox first office that shit in it and you can throw it out let's keep it up my friends ok so the sandbox love you too sandbox and application website that task with expect my publishes cold in etc and it doesn't have access the rest of your is so would you to send a corporate level how would you do that definitely, you can have a applications and websites that are not white listed automatically get rid of the sandbox in the sandbox gets emptied. If this could help me get the f did not skipped out shut i dont want to read a review the code to the side which if that's ok so i think that is the most important feature. Tell me nineteen eighty one. [10:59] New story of the week what's the news first off, i've been drinking more then living single word fatigue and its making me fatigued what we could have use the word for it because it's a lot of work carrying kitty litter from costco your house, where you get yours, i don't have any cats okay so you'll take the first news story david shirt so what are the would like iphone and android android phones better but will also kill them, what they mean by this is that. Higher speeds bandwidth available five GE will allow more devices do connect simultaneously five you cells are smaller than LTE sales so you have potentially lot more than sleep concentrated cells. [11:57] When computing becomes pervasive ambient right don't have a cell phone you can just say hey siri hey cortana hey alexa or OK google just had set and not write that you need help with headset on, you can just have glasses. [12:14] Or anything there anything you can just have a bottle of where is says where are there be. [12:22] Can i have the bottle that signals when it's empty so last time it's winter is here but he's clearly tell that. Will it snow in the snow outside is snowing today but we should be here later okay what about the bottle later so there talking about how basically pervasive. Ambient energy and internet will make the actual, device less important less relevant so that flies in the face of the next article from gardner that says buy twenty twenty three thirty million foldable phones will be sold that's me that's okay over and your number either the foldable phone is gonna fail miserably like three d tv. What were microsoft or microsoft phone or it's gonna wildly succeed it would never be thirty million to me it will be so tell me the meaning the medium, i'm bout the average staff thirty dollars not that many if it's that program breaking no thirteen billion this is a failure, add twenty twenty three to four years away so im not interesting enough today. Samsung release the galaxy fold to review did you get yours i did not but i didn't reading it looks like they're interesting devices i think i think i broke you be here to thank god above thirty million what you think. [13:48] I am not convinced that the one that stop by let see yes. [13:54] Didn't interest me at all in spending two thousand us in a different channel, turn truck and people are gonna wanna get new devices for five anyways right and so why not get full form button option you have to what's your on 12 15 hundred dollars from my phone when the two thousand nine exactly. Hi okay call insane over i'm taking over. [14:19] Add over thirty million yes and i'm saying under three million ok i'm not seeing a payment alright you buy me a bottle of. It's definitely a bottle of advil be ok right. [14:31] What's up next news items i only use it was something we been letting go for awhile i want to talk about this i, linkedin article with five service pro keyboard that cost less than microsoft covers and some of them, she really value options right because i don't want to spend the money a fifty dollars bluetooth snaps on the bottom right. Which is way better than what is a hundred and fifty us, add finish his best offensive what you got on the fingerprint reader are the different models so tell me what is p value place. Yep i can afford microsoft wednesday go for something cheaper and that's just the wrong body is surface pro you need a keyboard you spell, kool aid or whiskey ready kilanski i spilled beer on mine in the class during this e-mail to open again yes gonna be hoes i like a good beer like it can keyboard get play because i like bud light bourbon bud light and corona oh ok but the camera is gonna, ugh white but anyways, but really i wanted to talk about this david is there someone who wanted particular want to talk about and little girl five and the article from. [15:51] When do the central luckily pics the one that different one hazard top one the one i like it is made a metal bridge it's really more like a stan like a stand for cookbook. It makes, you're surface pro into a surface book on lost yes it got hanged clothes etc right let's start spotify, what for can we talk way back in minneapolis owed three or when first five or six episodes we talked about liability add liability flex different people different ways right if you got a big laugh, laptop issue with the kick stand because u got a real estate on the list of the top of your legs with some publishers is tack the, generally speaking a shorter people have smaller bikes generally speaking yes of shows exceptions write the ideas of exercise right it's so that's really the performance is the length of your fired because you need to have a keyboard, need a cake stand, i need to create an angle that viewable and still able to type versus a laptop just need the keyboard in a little bit of time for that exactly exactly so i like this model because, it's got a slightly dropped the surface of the bluetooth connected center doesn't connect to the base. [17:10] What it still works and in some scenarios it's more likeable for me and alex that works great and ask me what does do use it right now and you're not complaining exactly, i love just not for the sound board just surface pro till yes but. [17:29] What's the number to call these guys last very you ask for a review that is what happens when we drink during the shutdown. Add with your forty so how do i drink more than playing out well i already not too much i dont want to be a white walker. Hey right next news article and this was yours fine but that's a good add, the army version of the lines had no lead news that he let see if it is more like in to call of duty, ok let me back up i cannot microsoft wine close to one five hundred million four hundred ninety something million dollar contract with the us army to provide them with, er god what are your goals for the girls and i are goggles to protect it from harm light. [18:32] What are your goals AR augmented reality how much distance was very simply means you see sam it's like heads up display some of reality and some of the computer so i get one spot lights out contracted with virtual reality which replaces reality with something else so rather than seeing you bc goodbye f right we would replace with what i want to activate my line of sight with something else that's virtual reality augmented reality just overly other objects in information on to what i'm saying so i can't see you any coupon bubble above your head that says. [19:12] Take me or something like that yeah if i have a gov webpage. How about five hundred million us dollars to put take me sides about people during your wild magic are now but the beauty of this is that this version of the lens is really intended for military purposes and the people that actually try to mount the first generation to say you know what it's like. Play call of duty i don't play lot of video games by simcard he's like. Not interested i'm more into doing andrew yeah so i can play video games but that's fire, so it's just interesting microsoft and the contract and that is a lot like a video game i might be interesting recruiting tool. For microsoft and maybe we'll see more of it on the x box not a huge headline but that's something that we should talk about. [20:15] The next one more interesting to talk butterfly you start but i don't think my penguins p g. Yes analytics specifically for the window sound system for the first twenty fifteen or twenty sixteen windows ten incorporate the window sound system for lennox are you thinking articles one two and so you could actually read the lyrics in windows ten. What's the base os here windows or linux what pizza. [20:48] Secure is the type to hide the visor over simplified but the idea really is running windows ten but you know you can connect to other linux host and you can control them and all the things you do and lennox in one part of the machine and still run with staff simultaneously windows and linux running android and now we just have a new version of this article that i provide latvian where station right way you have one old is joshua. Is the host talks to hardware and another one that she was everything truly don't hardly do not have a direct hardware access everything goes to the host OS. Okay so it's become very popular but there's a new version specifically designed for the window sound system this is a popular with him. What average salary of workers but maybe some developers but really assistance. I have to take care of bulbs sure what that's what potentially assistant men's have to take care of both windows servers and lyrics server. Add. They have one machine the control them all as opposed to having a windows machine either lax pm spot underneath it would just be what exactly. [22:12] So i would like to look at if you're in that situation where that. I don't look at the link if you can look at a follower like a message again it's a base distribution any flicks of guess what it's free. That's alright next one is yours david. [22:38] So both ed and firefox are coming up for qualcomm based PC still arm piece with fret so, the work before and regulation but this way they can actually run as arm application switch with be more efficient. Faster of s sixty four bit. 32 becky would like to hear something from brand better a better performance less resources. And don't let me hear is so this is ad on chromium, bright screen doesn't say that helps i would imagine how to help science find summarize i just chromium based on firefox is web based, no smell of is not working parties web based. Ok sure right so they both have need of RMA implications of random gadgets any what. [23:34] I am super excited not to why you put something else. I feel you know why because qualcomm is yet to release, snapdragon one thousand sheriff earlier versions and they didn't succeed either right so that's why so yeah its new browser is for. Block from that no one uses what is it no it was microsoft came out with something. [24:08] Surface device with the window so we would consider it, kevin was found in the people i consider weak you know what i am anyways that's what i meant the harbinger of success or failure from business perspective ok so considerate but most people would just disappear. What kind of service and so asked her performance i'm looking. For those successfull windows and devices to calm and i think that's the best chance right now is the qualcomm snapdragon one thousand because i got flash is seventy performance but we get the great battery life and all the other wonderful things that come with processors like in vancouver really cheaper yes. [24:51] Whatever i'm optimistic okay but i'm tired of waiting yeah okay. I wanted to expect lose it wouldn`t stay skip it skip number i'm not sure i'm gonna leaving it about microsoft revamp in powershell for windows ten because, guess what more on linux users of powershell than windows users with powershell and where can i have shawn currently on the show to talk more about this, i was actually pretty much the whole thing lol no no no there's more to it than that i want him to listen to us. [25:30] Music. [25:38] Heard any rumors for microsoft will you have court you heard the most david. Never heard and heard them in my ear buds surface but yeah oh. What do you set on read-only it surface your boots don't exist yet but that's a beautiful in manchester this summer that we are there is a rumor that microsoft is working on ubuntu to court and quote air quotes. How was the air pods to go with my air quotes while that is that is one of your best jokes acquittal while it was just start drinking at the start of the show from the director. Alright so just that i love the average it doesn't have this dorky saying he loves me will that become a status symbol now. [26:31] Maybe a dinner crowd but not mobile the kids i can drive a test and got air pods while anyways let's let's talk more about this let me explain what i mean by that microsoft put in a lot of work lately. An audio. Yes it got surface headphones should i wear over the red fort was three hundred fifty dollars to us us that she bring canada and the USA. But the real heroes of microsoft wants to product eyes of monetizing with research and audio the surface headphones are bad headphones and all of it alot of. How do research stuff for the whole eggs can get you some keyboards but you're standing there with a lens exactly. Here's something for the money you spend there are much better headphones the sony is within one hundred take it from the back model number seven hundred awesome headphones does a lot of good headphones out there right now and the surface headphones, decent but the money is better headphones out there what are the devil what is microsoft will be that's different than apple. [27:42] Is there a person and read and write in a gray shirt with the phone samsung got there are what they call them. They give away free what's the galaxy s ten in the us. Ok got the pods but microsoft wants to bring cortana and somebody other control platforms cortana. The couples from church but still alive r u sure, yeah any place that isn't a rumor that we can spread that card still life but back to that five g will kill the iphone android or call your phone but maybe it's just because we're buds that will be your mentor into into tell for sure so really when is the band we're out. [28:31] How would i have a computer when you're just out for a walk. Right you would you would just like its be audio ok so this is a remote switch again to much time and let's move on. What is microsoft what's microsoft added to use what is cost what is that, it's yet another chat app for microsoft help my goodness it's so good i was hoping i get another half-and-half because i don't have enough i got your up for the. Who have to get whiskey fifty how that would spiral wrap bands. So okay so what why does the why is this even come up. [29:20] No because he added to teams they are going to one. The other planning on doing it's like tonight no it's like they're gonna hand it like in the next two years is like well no it's because of teams by office three sixty five on the new features of takes time to roll out to clients because we're the clients of that right, that's really annoying the client can just change the tenant right away there's still a difference between happiness and the seventeen still be ok so i think its time to say goodbye this into another segment, say a segment segway david know he is my rant what is the time, higher than that so that were not where i can see if it's all there now i gotta x wat's i'm not gonna say he. [30:06] I can see the f word that silver podcasts, but microsoft has way too many collaboration tools and apps and office 65 that just confuses people three different types of less mad about wanderlust a task to do, yeah i got like yeah and the miss and what the sticky notes are there is so many collaboration tools and people don't know when to use which right to confuse people one drive to share point what we were used to share things with my colleague is getting confusing you add yet another chat app and it's like, whatsapp or messenger what's your day so he was the only saving grace this is worth becoming a little bit more if you want to use a chat app yet another chat bot yeah like a slacker whenever yes. [31:05] Size party dress is kinda nice cuz one u want the confused because in teams you know when we spent features of teams i'm don't forget to the future. But that being said. Shut up that's part of office three hundred sixty five has one advantage you like any other day to an office three hundred sixty five you own it, microsoft did microsoft will not sell it to others because you play tomorrow partly because you paying for it but because but the biggest reason is officially responsible e i'm like yeah used a google chat app or facebook chat app, your facebook and i cannot accept everything good day. [31:50] Can you reset yourself because because i just excepted or i don't get installed right so, we installed a today there is nobody else using it so we can chat with each other because it really is no one else uses is actually ok so what's your read too many of these, how's the ramp okay i'm getting tired hey of the lights like the streaming services in the us right disney HBO and netflix apple. Who did bob scratch. [32:30] Ok eric of course i want some kids wear a good time and place where we're just about done on the shelf. [32:40] Do you want to say anything or should i go into what i'd like to go, i got two things one for a super alpha even listening to the shelf for a long time i listen to everything and somebody just listen to anybody listen to every podcast status of you can you complete the start the beginning and go from there anyways. What's the balance basically fan so hopefully around dinner with the sound board for sound board gives us nice lol sound effect during the show. [33:11] Music. [33:18] I made a sound board app using all of our sounds i did it for androids could never feel horny really want to email me and i'll send you a link and you can have an accident can have access to. But i thought we do something else for a super off and won't what but. Any fan any fan but they are out of and the ones of contribute to this more easily is your favorite sound bites from past episodes. What about the whereabouts of bites. We should be using or something id like to say to the idea of being you of my sound bites were passed episode of something i wanted to say we will make sure, put them into our sound board app and then you can download it from the google play store samosa more about slide to add and remove sounds know both bound actually most are pre loaded. [34:11] Okay so i'll be pretty loaded with our new person so being the top of the surface smiths android app you can take with you anywhere to a meeting and have a say something on a date and have a say something every damn body. Scheme sure not not forget the date thing yes of be sad what's happening with our listeners hear, okay right now what the dates of the radical so ask what anyways we're gonna build out sound up for you can download it okay take with you anywhere have a say what you want to say when and where. [34:49] So later on in the outro hear how to reach us how to email us and tell us to turn off the that's true so let us know if there is some but i don't want the one that comes up a lot is the one about, tastes like it smells which is like so that probably gonna be there, and you know we're teaser is with sound clips before the episode, sure right so we'll have that dinner potentially as well got a great place to look for some interesting audio clip to start doing that again but yeah it's tiring i get working i get the TG oh there we go. [35:31] Ok so david you want to talk about eminem finished. [35:38] Who would you like to have financial it could be you what happened is we got the technology, yes there somebody would like to have on the show yourself or someone else your alter ego who ever let us know and we will hunt them down and make the cum on the shelf, are they required basically it's not found by this thing have a headset microphone that would be a bonus, we one more guess on the shelf and you know what we can help them grow their brand if you got something i wanna talk about the blog of work. I website will i get the podcast what if it somebody and related to the technology say it someone who runs a story would we be okay with it in france who runs the story. I would think about someone whom offers whiskey tours to scotland will we be okay with that i can make and so we can stretch we good a work right so i gotta ask a favor we ask for a lot. [36:42] Yes order what can we what are we asked for the rest of the lights off when i make the money from this where we lose money on the show we do it for fun yes would you to inform would entertain ourselves yeah hopefully we entertain you but, give me more details so pricey the version of this podcast yeah but that being said.

And have the listen to album subscribe to another device and listen to your favorite episode show them how to listen to the surface smiths to listen to universal when is podcast add. Where we can grow our listening base just a little bit it's happening david everybody is brother starting a podcast, is it because it's like it believe it take your brother zach so that the after party, what's happening is it's getting harder and harder for people to find the podcast because there's so many out there over hundred thousand podcasts out there now and because heart to in jackson five people have trouble finding just like you so much noise in the blogosphere pada sphere add soap, when looking at more organic analog ways of helping people find the show so tweets or retweet did i do, yo show somebody had to listen okay i am having subscribe and listen to you have people talk about the TV show the day after spin out, maybe you can a water color discussion about cheryl the one about the game of thrones people kept talking better today or she got a letter. [38:36] Alright so i think that's it have a david let's wrap it up take everybody thank you so much for coming on keeps kicking the ice. [38:46] Music. [38:55] Follow the show on twitter at service smith's email to show as hard cast had service since dot com check out the show notes and leave a comment on www dot. [39:08] Helping others find out about the show by reading a review on itunes. [39:11] Music. [39:22] Alright welcome to this the after party if i left where i look forward to the after party because we get, yeah but why is the start the after party god willing yes ok whisky yet will we had whiskey already sold still time for whiskey but we can do we talk about that with so today is the monday after season eight episode one of game of thrones and so without we have some. What are the other david we have the white walker buy johnnie walker so johnny walker was your special guess the podcast and so, people often make you sad so drinking all the way through the podcast called it hey normally use case. We had barely we do that. [40:10] So this is a johnny walker special edition white walker for game of thrones so use to say winter is coming when the bot was cause it warm, i feel a bottle it's kind of really really think that this is because colin straight particular you did not find his fridge full of whiskey, and yet this case. [40:32] I want to whiskey in the fridge freezer actually just so you can see winter is coming on the side will you will note that this is actually designed for. Drinking cold which is odd because typically you want things to be warm ugh. Can we get more dramatic sound right but. This was designed to be cool okay i am partly because i did what winter is coming to where it taste ok let's talk with the tasting first off. Rotational this is a blended scotch johnny walker which is normally a blended scotch and it's based off of. The HBO series in the box but the george harper blended desk in the small from english, which is interesting because this is scotland's what is one of the most northern illinois so talking with them north and west alot of you watch the finally to watch the show david and also card due just fairly north, should i watch the show i feel like that you feel like fantasy. [41:46] That's not bad in the books before but the thing is last two seasons of zombie on the box because i think what netflix offered in the music really could not use the music u like six to get ahead and he just gave up or what. Now take this time writing space is a little bit of money you ask this anyways the music is phenomenal what's the name of the guy already i can't pronounce this name is indian and fantastic fantastic score to the show are very good music is lol. It's truly a television would HBO show me screenshots i watch crazy. Preposition place six episode two season two single males wait to the season ends. You're looking good afternoon apology the beginning the shelf for the audio so i'm not sure what it is anyways. Um weird thousand six weeks david then subscribe to plus HBO for like ninety nine am in washington i can get creative with my yeah. Internet data what's your internet. [42:57] I want to get there whats up its a business call does not can the door be safe today and they wanted the internet's like i have internet from yo so they don't even know so let's the commute to work. [43:12] What walker company display FL okay create concerts black out so let's talk about this color. I would say not care about all of this with a sweater that honey yellow gold yellow gold or yellow gold that's a beautiful term. Or pale golden rod yellow gold alright let's start with linen start with heat three smooth very smith. Now that's not what heat so um gonna medium heat. I would like that okay like dark fruit no no citrus fruit yes medium. Floral definitely what different with ma see more of a cold type of a write um. [44:04] Spicy no definitely not her yes multi i make a coffee that so much. Woody yeah but not not charcoal you're not here. No no sweet medium body. [44:34] What is the fun part of the roof the lights around the balance is actually really well balanced call them trying to torment and linger not longer necessary little longer. [44:45] You can get this sum to someone who doesn't like whiskey child. And they would not be offended by this that's also what you're listening i got a idea. If it is i'll share with you another podcast that we figure out which phone to the game of thrones characters would what other products. Recording a show that really stood with nick and listening to linkin stop published anywhere yet, is this a comedy but that doesnt know don't another one to re download it to be a guy like la that's pretty to buy t-shirts, alright sophie don't want to spend too much time on this because many of them got some recording issues i can figure out what is going on but the, you have bad is a ticket from there okay thanks for listening and i just got on the rocks or in this case my freezer and we're looking forward to summer. Yes but winter is here for six more weeks.

One zero one i think we should probably move on to something else i can do to distract hey guys what about the word of the week how but i forgot the suite you pick it this week while microsoft just released a beta version of microsoft s so let's go with my with add chocolate to them for long time what you mean is the beta version of you will talk about that later okay so as for those either playing the game every time i hear the word dead. I have a seventy average alright so who's the special date david is. Turn and what is that. [1:25] Five by five in binary five days after april third yes which is the release of the original at the race that the first phone call made on her cell phone, forty six years and five days ago today and it was made by a gentlemen worked at motorola, what was the name is name is cooper coupe or agent cooper yeah and he made a phone call hoodie call david, adblock to call bell hey guess what i'm doing yet you called bell labs he was a martin cooper standing, new york hilton on six avenue and email to call to the head of research labs company has also attempting to make the world's first cell phone it is screw robin hawk, yeah that's a good for him no make new rules for a cell phone calls quite impressive what would you like some price of is, how was first telephone why not call. [2:30] Ghostbusters exactly so that being said any other housekeeping any other, so what can we do yesterday studio audience why do we have studio audience while there people that work for you call him, add me making up a new website and done price of right to any listeners then that have any suggestions for the website love and hate it etc feel free to send information is the contact info is at the end of the show, you can send to podcast at service master competition or contact info the end of the show and from that will pass that information along to our universe so i can't like to think it's can leave the office with his film crew following us around, what is it daniel and i want to dance for dance show is always eating thanks and every once in a while the crew will get to see him get fed on tv so. [3:27] Yeah we're gonna figure out what to get my expectations up there by no will you can help me take CS to do anything really feeling michelle ball is dead i want to speak with this idea that some suggested friend and i don't know anything i don't have a picture of taking the first buy it and talking and taking the last buy in md play come away from the plate and feed the crew, let's turn on the display okay so i, we've got before we go any further we got a feature of the week we don't always feature that we don't even have a sound bite feature the week need to work on that, start anna know we don't play with cortana anymore but feature of the week yes how windows ten disconnects USB storage device. So this is for people who are obsessive compulsive but disconnecting the devices manually will this break up, the air is what they called performance mode or other. [4:34] Quick quick probably distracted by something time but just what i do is what you do however that actually can be crafted by there has had that happen. Rhino, so quick mode that's what's the most you moving to if i can move anytime but data can be collected also performance status of right now the default is performance mode means cashing, its prefect training and using other resources try to give you a faster experience however if you remove it, things me happy when did this get to the cashed. Have driver profile do not switching it so that it the default is, quick move because most people don't do the safe act like ion ee how many tasks u saying that really changed how i operate search engines the default thats correct what most people don't change default now if you want to hear power three can go in and change that, sure, yeah i need extra speed or if it's a device that i got a external usb drive here that i have connected it's connected almost all the time so i leave at on performance rather than on. Remove anything else. [5:50] New story of the week are we have lots and lots of news this week we've been broken up into. God. What's up what's the date again add and lots of engineers since april eighth five days and forty. Microsoft has released a beta and with chromium what is that mean what might explain this to, this message is. Well anybody that are less yes i would say basic with the combination of edge and chrome, so the red dancing the part underneath. Underneath the menus and the tabs all that will be it's actually not necessarily chrome itll be but chromium chromium open source and, google is the biggest contributor to the base the chrome browser on the chrome and rendering engine however it's not exactly the same. How much to explain this to someone who doesn't feel attacked. [7:04] Lol well they know that you had to load chrome and i guess i'll just call, and the spartan was not as compatible with websites, roman reason for that it wasn't is commonly sold developers atlanta test on web browser, what is the test on lgmr one thing contest on chrome anything a test on to, and wasn't the number two browser either so the world testing on that other testing in safari there testing another and eventually made test on edge and want to report a problem right now and weather not edge what is the problem, dim the day people using it had issues and i have all kinds of issues using edge to connect to microsoft, what does this mean for the average is it doing today what ever to stop playing the want you to use edge close chrome. [8:04] Currently movie re load it with respect to system or they can use and anyone even care people that work voting ends with navy values as the default browser because can use the same rendering engine but the will be able to integrate with microsoft and any services still be able to integrate with being more cats by default the search engine ads because i think, here is a couple things at edge not the beta that were using today but that def leave. [8:35] The previous version of ge still does better than previous email to current groceries in touch much better than brett it also thinking much better than trump. Does indian could a few things that does excel at any of microsoft can bring that as well as other things to it uh, that's a plus what does that mean those things those features well then slow through chrome. Perhaps it microsoft microsoft makes a party of kobe or not depends on how the owl and how other people adopted this to three other things, add supports streaming in four k. [9:22] From it anything or just from netflix i want to contact the kodak based issue is when the cortex the jesus vs the code that chrome is so right now it's browser goes just really browser able to stream netflix in four k, i think. Remind us know what actions podcast this could be a serious problem for some for listeners that often will pick up where did the week and then looks like. Rights of microsoft spent the time with this the other thing today is i added a chrome extension so it felt when you load the data, we'll link would like to get everyone around it you go to the microsoft store to get your extensions. You can also go to the chrome web store and load chrome extensions i did that today that worked very nicely. [10:15] Another little bit a news about microsoft and chrome es file explorer version of explorers going to support multiple tabs each withdrawl process much the same way chrome does. [10:32] So you can copy multiple files at the same time searching multiple locations all copies to eat with red. Alright so that's it for engineers what was inside you get anything you will talk about. What is the your phone app you can now if you have the exact charger i can dial to marry nephew android phone on your desktop, so i've been using the your phone app but with mixed results doesn't like having it repaired to two different laptops no no no light from phone laptop, add but nevertheless it doesn't seem to be a bit more stable now that one of the options option to select your photos option to do text messages from here, from your laptop and then option three would be actually to see the screen and electronics but people are so used to people sitting at the desk to three hundred for really large monitors and the ivory over the phone. Does the fact that you can actually get the phone right on your screen will i do that all the time i sent you text messages or your phone app then i said to some i can type much faster they use that somehow still having trouble typing on my galaxy s ten right steven adopted two yeah is quite that works OK. Efficiency of people actually once would use that she can access facebook on your phone so you think works not looking at it. [12:01] Right ugh more insider been prescribed for me yeah more insider news. [12:13] So this is for home based small business usage right were talking but here yeah i wasn't everybody but yes so it starts with nineteen h one hundred nineteen, first off it still what is the building still nineteen oh three beds one to b two as the may twenty nineteen update right, turn light of course in binary will not save it the same bill that was released in march just going to more testing right before its available so. Features are will the ability to delay, so first cumulative updates you can delay seven eight seven to thirty five days and home you just got to thirty five days that's right thirty five days and then eventually build delayed the build. So skip over nineteen eighty one. Right and you don't have to infor about this long as it is supported i'm not really a fan of that. Pens umm if you are using eighteen nine in las vegas. You maybe a fan of it sure sure i can you know there are some people have some of that doesn't work in their system are the some hardware doesn't work in they don't upgrade for eighteen months and then hopefully by then you'll be working. [13:35] Ok so can be a big demand for people other than corporate not want food, no i think it's more just people always complains of one less thing for them to clean about and get on with it, so it's been a wider not moving windows ten asus it was just another reason that the user to not gonna understand will talk more but then later suggested that you're here, nothing lol people a lot of people complaining local small businesses that they don't have the manpower etc will talk more but i just wanted to get actually just pop up and say do you want to sell this like yes or no, supposed to be on we want to review computer. [14:15] Right ok so now onto surface news, i'm trying so that's a bunch of new configuration for the surface laptop two and the surface pro so summary of things like different configurations setter and need generation, processor and the surface laptop to write, this is more we're the surface will need to share some info with you some of these devices will be available in north america, add minor upgrades slight changes in configurations of filling out the line more low end stuff some meat and delivered higher and just the same thing that any other vendor would do any one here too much about labels dollar hp is added to the lineup in the past microsoft and big events launching devices now it's just that it's a, just like post but that's changing the screen on the keyboard the power supply. [15:13] Or the track pad so i would really love to process excellence laptop too and small changes to the surface book is well, um what's what's with the surface laptop to edit the doing their work princess dresses yet that memory chip remember me option of instagram feel like i'm not sure, select. [15:37] Gigs of RAM use continue bu yeah so the i'm not getting all the details of lots of lots of other websites that have. I need to pay my phone gets a memory new laptop yoga. What's up yeah exactly i want to talk about microsoft releasing over the last month or so all kinds of new firmware for the surface pro five six six four surface laptop for surface laptop two for surface studio and surface go, can we talk about it is what organizations and individuals never paid. Where is jesse when i got my wife's laptop that was, incredibly behind on most everything you think it will be automatically updated why is that what you think that. Because i looked at the screen that what's up what did you do that shit says one update right but firmware update are really important for compatibility but also for security and performance for sustainability, so why don't people do it. [16:48] The freight difference there free well that's good news then but that individuals but what about enterprises to have your DOS and does it stop when will be good. [16:59] Because. I want to do with the hard way to be less insecure than i spend more time doing what is the ability last performance is compatibility and security do, so many organizations so many organizations would just be better than just automatically update everything and just know no control, all the fancy prom theme so you show notes i listed all the different from your upgrades that are available just in the last month, okay also added a link to something else am surface enterprise management just stares of tools, set you can control the firmware, as well as upgraded with another vendor similar to sunday abdel does he does but these tools to automate wide scale updates from where and control c. yeah true we is or SEM continue to receive ssi i don't want to do that so yeah so has other tools powershell script all sorts of things but for those of you that complaint it's too difficult and not worth the effort microsoft and make it easier for you. [18:11] Roger are more surface surface news then this film might make you blush no that's not what i know. What is that new blush. Blend surface type color to cover yes for the surface pro six yes so right, i like my color but that's what you missed another news item that i talk wit rich so there is a new service out yes so for those of you that use a service app that you get from the microsoft store probably come on your service too often does but the new version can update it, from the app store add this version actually has warranty info.

[20:18] What others we are covered the blush which is another color that you're safe type of rain but we're also talking about microsoft visual kick-stand for upcoming service brows. So so people who have been the surface kicks and receive all continue to evolve overtime originally said what are the three pc, napkin continuous and now it can lay down almost flat one position then than three position in them, what positions right so how do we know better east asian more yes microsoft, published a patent file a patent for a new type of hinge add that. We want to review the details but. Give them different opening and closing resistance levels and half will see that in the surface pro seven. Speaking of closing the microsoft app is closing okay so jumping to other news at the end of surface news i think it's alright for microsoft bookstore book app. [21:27] So there's not a book reader for her, what is windows hundred dollars so what's close one was not the one for microsoft right to be when you can't buy books can i buy books for microsoft last july i wonder how much how many they sold for, when did peter so what happened for people that were bought them already i bought a book now what can happen i get the ringback you need money back bought a book for three years ago read it and get my money back yet, okay. If you made of patients leave it on the twenty five dollars you kidding why do the louisiana stations will get way can make a meditation you have a condo here they are, does active period just got a new version of it. Microsoft google what's the company's i'll companies just get rid of product hunt. What's the weather anymore and its opposite lots of great places to get books and this was not one of them arrived to hear some good news microsoft. Mixed reality jazz has genes something that windows phone neighborhood. [22:36] Um fone the people wanted to know what's going on i don't know what will the tech market share. That's marked get it in binary to decimal and this is automated reality not mixed reality vr ui VR unless included. Right so this is what is a hole in disc based on the hardware for gaming at things like that for use with steam and whatnot but it's one step towards that. Still not number one player number one player is your facebook seven percent. And why is that thirty nine percent. Microsoft and help papa let's make reviews about why as well we can talk about that, so what is that next year they will have samsung number one when no mobile phones in the world. [23:40] Testing. I mean it is nine nissan use icenter i was playing with ya way may twenty whatever it is much quicker. Who are the best and quick note remember that so you know they are certainly competitive from manufacture sure. Alright and one last piece of other news you wanna do something. [24:12] Oh no i don't want to know so for those of you that use office three sixty five, outlook on the web get smarter so meaning using the web interface level by outlook.com but using basically still call out look with access at one point though, so if you're using that ive, you're more insight so suggested replies an old gmail sometimes could you suggest replies linkedin gift suggestion replies to messages so can you give me suggestion replies, missing contacts like yes thanks you can go to that meeting because i got a lunch date tomorrow yeah what's the price on sun, but also with smart meeting time suggestions and locations so that no preference me saying he wanted for lunch it was that you have a meeting in lancaster road i might suggest a restaurant nearby, yeah i don't like picking lancaster road play so much. And i think that's it for news. [25:20] Music. [25:29] Heard any rumors for microsoft how rumors rumors rumors rumors so, non-existent mythical service phone games new features what new features the surface phone has three new colors are the three things that she. Popping glance mode of attention whores have folding screen when i was andromeda, yeah def new rumors tell the reason that you remember coming out is because my cousin happens when march they filed a patent for the new huge mechanism. Folding phone folding device of some sort and similar to hand on the surface book. Makes kind of sense right and popping glance mode i guess they filed a patent bad as well, hopefully they'll put it somewhere besides the service phone okay here's the other interesting thing you know that microsoft could not work for windows on our, i'm really waiting for the qualcomm snapdragon one thousand processors that are getting it i five and i seven territory set the four five six are waiting for. [26:46] What's the fastest that was when they introduced in the. When is VR waiting for the ok so what's going on with i don't think it will come one thousand seven hundred-one thousand seven ship yet not gonna happen well. [27:01] In anticipation of that so i'm saying this is unfortunate this news story came out in april first because it is a true story ERS a bunch of. Hobby guests have got windows ten on arm running on a oneplus six t phone considering by the way, i can figure out a samsung etc to sleep somewhere processor what. Windows phone lips i don't know thank god actually calling but. The actual career mode start from the same at work. Turn on or connect and are remind order of buffalo speeches meeting at work but i think i broke the camels really work. Want to see us we can read the wikipedia article it says here i think that that's uh. But it's working and it was not done by microsoft it was done by a public so i. Go to show you that there might still be hope for windows phone next summer. Will the sensitivity already submitted me later already mentioned windows windows three point one is his birthday today. [28:23] Nineteen ninety three. Yeah has a birthday every year while terrified was like this week this week did we get a birthday set up i feel wicked play breathtaking music we should do that we should play some gundam music. What is microsoft's what is microsoft amount five years ago that there going to be ending my ending support and extended support for an operating system what are they did that would that surprise people when a countdown ended and had to get off that, yes what's the price of what. [28:57] Yeah what's up yo are there for soldiers still lots of organizations people women organisation service that people dont care i dont hold my fridge so what other people have the operating system it's fine don't we have, lots of organizations are still struggling with the fact that they had it level the next same same thing happen when people with windows xp how to get upset and yell, there's no bass cancel cancel this david is nothing has nothing to do with the ginger bath and beyond, this is some bath is the essay what is the podcast had a serving do with that is a town in england and drama rather that why call back from the, roman times and there is, when they're struggling because i have to pay one million pounds to upgrade computers well past the recommended useful life. [30:03] Me name na updates either have to get. Customer support agreements for window sound right or they got u that is hard won't support windows ten i don't want to replace the hardware gotta do something about that or are the applications that they have to. Yeah i don't know what that was mentioned in article yeah but that's almost every single application works on windows seven. [30:27] Give me me to work on windows ten without a whole lot of the other maybe there is like ninety nine point nine nine percent, certification microsoft really want a lot of trouble to make things easier but the biggest issue with windows seven compatibility would be women's next week with two things one, hard credit checks the application look for the version number what you can say that i am unable the fact that everything windows seven and windows eight and you can fake well that's that's right you can figure that was won the other one you behaving at the road to read zero add windows seven vista start this quilt the new driver model where this product processes are the only things a lot to write during zero and applications cab now windows seven lets keep that model hasnt changed between one to seventy one source one to seven working windows ten i cannot perspective all sorts of other things so i've sent email off to the bath council of your department asking everyone to talk to your department. If you want to talk to you about this in a future episode about the hardship thing imposed upon them by microsoft twenty second. [31:40] Bot. If people cut yourself to microsoft revenue offering system start buying new hardware with the new version of windows then they're really have no problem. People push you off and offer nothing golden image and a black to put on the machines and they just stick with it and they don't budget for it. Well yeah and so then they're pushing the costume to upload lamp like wtf what's the same thing haha. Let's say dublin their license.

[1:41] Left i think i'll get anywhere with this are resulting already go ahead and write so well we got nutsack is the head of the windows insider program and also known as a code blooded beast. Well yes i don't know why thank you last time we were on the show together was july twenty sixteen and why is july twenty sixteen toronto i've been on the job for about a month we have very exciting time that's right and also with us we have your mobile i just love seeing mr marvel roll that weed like making me all data for my favorite magazine that is a good age etc jeremiah has changed job since we last had them on the show he's not the director. I have developer marketing for windows needs best job you direct me happy because i ran out, which party but lot of things we know all about showing me the hand wheel your favorite sandwich all sorts of things like that without we talk about something different today is killing people. [2:42] Yeah not kilanski sweat where can i go to schooling springs not like i have a list financing killing that's not with the word is no usa you have a list who came up with the word list must be a really mean, you got a, can you tell people you hey i wonder what the real world what's let's true right friday the exact want to talk about killing people. You are the talk about mysql had dinner at oak you were gonna call up skillet id like a okay that feeling so we believe that. Everybody. [3:15] Should be a lifelong learner because of lifelong learners are the people who are happiest and they tend to be the most fulfilled and the live their best lives windows insiders are notorious lifelong learners because with every flight who let me learn what's in the build this week. But windows inside there's also a million to represent the billions that means for every inside the nope many billions of people reaching out to them and asking for help on stuff like a which laptop should i get should i get an anti virus what is this icon mean that the top of the mountain that, turn off the summit so windows inside of the people who your community is look to for help on technology and one of the big areas that tech is growing and um. [4:01] Future things like i am cloud etc and we believe that we when does insider should be at the forefront of all of this technology. So we know inside your soul i call about windows lol but office but what about the next generation of text dad is coming here is going to impact all of us so we have our goal of helping our insiders learn the skills i need, ups kill themselves so they can't scale their communities weather gonna be able to find out like this training is super interesting please go take it not reach our manager boss or whatever so were starting a program friends i just called insider up the consent of skills and where can i use the microsoft learn content not this content has been created by a whole bunch of teams in the company and they're all centrally located docs site. The content is free and it is created by us and used by us. [4:58] If you follow me on twitter to see that i started doing the fundamentals thatcher foundation stain on sunday, michael really cool person that i am like what else would i be doing on sunday feeling really having a drink i was not because i needed to like someone focus but, my focus is attracted by quitting every two minutes about what you've got stuff to my staff can plant based on dx and the microsoft university is based on that i can get them to tweet on the general has them please do so as you do the trending hashtag insider up because then we can see what people like what which on of the which of those courses originating at central please make sure to sign in using your insider account your instagram and say those kinda thing in the upper right because then we can actually figure out like this is how many insiders are actually doing this and i just so as you finish stuff she should just like all of you show me your feedback up just show your microsoft address to because i think you can do for you can talk a little just cannot believe organization those badges also count towards apartment complex tell me the weather inside for a partner like they're gonna be difficult to adjust to that's pretty cool also these am courses usually and inserts like certification exams i would love it if every insider was cloud certified because that makes is pretty legit. [6:25] Can you please just cancel u wanted to talk about some up feeling as well. It's very similar actually so what what are the skills that one can learn how to code. Both very humidity in the power of learning technology some what were the things we now is most windows inside your technical, very excited to learn new things excited too and go deep into the windows operating system in place until the new features. And what are the other great things about a platform like windows his made over two billion people in the world, is you can create your own experiences then you can start this six years i've been terminated code word through the web browser your using using OTP based on what is the score of the things you can do with the operating system over and i just use that. [7:14] So one of our goals is awesome. Please help me more people get to learn the superpower and learn learn how to code a super power really is it really is a super power. You can control everything what was missing things that dead noticed over the past three years that's the needs of people of code there is a corner where they're from so i was born in worcester massachusetts, we want to focus in his fantasy stock manchester actually it is spelled chester restart your switch the important is broken the same way yeah i mean they do think that that's something that's western massachusetts are different from what one so my money doing in san francisco and seattle, very different from lagos nigeria very different from nairobi kenya very different from when is very different city. [8:03] And so trying to do the same with the word of being a windows operating system to be the best operating system on planet. Who can also take some of the skills we learn in developing a community worldwide of windows inside and apply it to a worldwide community of developers so is developers aspiring that never of touch of cold the middle line of code is. I'm so busy things are ok here is vs code you can download under thirty seconds use visual studio you can download in the play the longer you can do way more things with that, here's how you register for NU try it out here is microsoft's this whole bunch of things you can do except getting better every single day, just today just keep the office team the three days ago check your office team. Hi now that they are open sourcing on get hub some of the content of their own internal developers use to write their the web code supporting office this is what you things that you mentioned just earlier colin, i had accident and suffered two academy did the whole much of resources that we have. Here microsoft already created so it always says zest and just making it easier to start to find out where it is a web go to learn about it helping localize and translate some of these things just make me even more successful and rd is when is my first time is learning how to program it was actually staff. [9:26] Magazin n text because i type in your friend's quote. [9:31] What lol whatever quote me type remember type then ENTRA yeah that seems to work in fifteen minutes to figure out, what was the energy to make it look like things are we here and now things are you here now in do think that that would notice it because it's way easier when you have a community of people who are helping you do things you want to do so first it's very easy to see what is the end state where can i go with code, like no you have movies like the social network telling about the start of the company that didn't exist a couple decades ago, how you can look at you know fuck fox your who are you hello who did we came from. Some of the poorer places in the world so i find this for me but in nigeria he sent you that train software engineer donuts from detroit michigan not an economic powerhouse, i'm from worcester massachusetts which money you never heard of before and always because you know how to code because, technology is not scary in something i can eat and we'll dance the superpower we been able to achieve some pretty cool things and things in our hope is that everyone in the world has access to so these same tools. And so it is easier to learn some of these tools if it's night it's not scary if it's something they even this dude from western massachusetts can do you like i can i can probably pick up this is well. [10:53] So the key thing that we wanna make sure we drive home is that this is not for kids. Breaking everyone lot of companies openly including tools and communities for kids were like that's nice the kids are definitely the future and we make sure every child in the world is empowering to do that within code or does a phenomenal job snap of creating learning tools and content and a phenomenal job of ten teachers how to teach kids to dance and the other students are very different people or not necessarily tackling students because i'm it's been done and there's a lot of like special requirements everyone engage with people under the age of eighteen many places in the world were thinking more about adults, right where focus very much on adults especially the adults with think it's too late, there's those people who think its too late either because in the wrong it's not too la joya one of the people who told me it's too late that this is very very interesting where was that button doesn't exactly how are you listening, someone tweeted that contain my called my fingers hurt. I despise that i think it's too late for me i said your twenty two or something um it's too late. So it's too late to learn a new skill at the end of the day twenty two in an industry that you love so very much we're going to live without want it's like it just. Hard not to be in a macro. [12:17] I would a while is easy it's because i do it right so you was that conversation that really lattice to this realization like all of it is actually highly technically competent people, who are afraid to write it just comes from a place of fear because it is far easier to go and live by technology and consumer technologies in to creative. So consuming resume and creating but it's for everyone it's for retired marines it's for people changing jobs that's very nervous. When is maroon okay sorry what do you provide what is it is really important just to realize like the scent of things that are stopping people from from cody from transferring the lights in some cases. No me more and more it's not a lack of access to the tools you know anyone with a windows laptop can do it how much it also to buy sorry how much does it cost to buy three vs vs code is free that's open to suggestions to visual studio that are free okay see you can you can we have access to all the tools you would ever need. Turn all of the referrals online are free prayers all of the microsoft ones it's not the access snow like that no medication, i'm the sense of fear or do i start have no idea where to go no go to deb collective. [13:38] Check it out here's a couple things in increasingly when i tried to partner with local communities so that you live in cleveland ohio broke you have audio and video materials if only we had someone to help with out there. [13:52] I have a lot of people are quoting not realizing it now before things like alexa skills and things like that and talk to people that can make granola he was spent this weekend could always alexa skills that an automated his home and he didn't have this loading yeah. Yeah but that hardly counts. We're having such a great conversation with gary what the current one piece last night around here like a great start a project for people who think they can't code is that home automation because people have some home automation things you wanna do and it is just logically and attaching things in life skip to do something secretly give me some great examples living proof of someone who is not you all these cool things what technology just learning how to code in one language and then going from there in price of the arts center, it's cold and robot coded in the coyote before it was a thing in eastern machine learning it's not really cool things because you started along time ago how can i ever doubted you don't pass the turing test yesterday in the passion of business but where is donna weir lee passed the turing test and got a BF. Machine learning is going on der are better this time this machine has learned how to pass the turing test that enough and education we move on, you always were good af for my university. [15:18] Yeah that is so awesome that's wonderful life learning community. You think there is anything else you'd access for the university submitted my cell cost two thousand dollars to take your card. [15:30] Are there material is up there for spring yeah it's that sense of community that is missing right now i feel like if i want to learn another way to pay lots of money to go to college so we can storm to be in the dark but actually setting up local community center city with other people are trying to achieve the same as u is incredibly powerful, we'd we do if everything is right we have when i was feeling frustrated writing fiction based on a riding class every tuesday and because the writing class i can't do it that i didn't want to finish my novel but they made me is the center finish you can read it next tuesday pressure peer pressure is sky high should a did that like deadlines and pressure right so we think that having something similar, and every city in the world especially when they're inside were gonna ball in told you to set these included including if you are inside you consider yourself falling told to set one of these are you listening to this podcast here to the podcast you told, news story of the week you heard about text grams and people calling calling people at home claiming to be from microsoft or windows do, help them there not here is your chance to turn the tables i understand that. [16:48] Windows ten users can now set up a call with microsoft to chat directly with the engineers about features calling microsoft and having them call you which you know i read that so a bunch of people ask this question like i thought microsoft's other never gonna call anyone out like we're calling you, we're inviting you to call and the reason for that is this because it's very privileged to think that everyone can send feedback written, it is an incredibly privileged leave and i know if you ship orders out there i took to the twitter's to complain about like comparing or soft you know. Alfred to call blah blah i'm like. [17:25] It shows everyone's privilege to say that everyone should be able to open the feedback has been right feedback what if your visually impaired and don't know how to do that. What if you're someone who is dyslexic, what for someone who is just not that good at writing or expressing yourself through writing or you just don't know which you include very large percentage population for exactly this is why people. What if you just can't what if you use technology but you're not able to give feedback and red honestly i fall into this category i am way better talking to somebody but i am writing company mail would guess that is why this is a reminder saying a blog exactly so when you think about the sheer number of people in the world to express themselves better through verbal communication. The fact that we've never done this before and that is the weird thing vs why are we doing, what doing it because there's different learning and communicating styles and frost believe that everyone should communicate the way we do if i want to sleep replaced and ridiculous. [18:21] Microsoft announces new cadence for corporate windows user, rate went to the woods it et ninety three months servicing what happened is that something that's just just announcements let it be your some. Deeper meaning to that, no not really i can't pronounce the night actually so like last year but it was just a lot of corporations and saying yo we needa longer resting state because it takes a long time they corporations and the more old school, hardware and software they have the harder it is i'm so what their saying it's where okay to phase out old hardware after thirty six months but its really hard to upgrade, all these companies would rather have the skating so we know thirty six months we are bringing new hardware eighteen months we upgrade the machine we can upgrade we upgrade. And after thirty six months to replace hardware because that's a very standard the hardware refresh gold for many companies in canada it's based on tax, you are shit class five is that enough for thirty six months and you can enter your tax write off you can get past the first gear so its it's gonna be something like that but its pretty much are responding to feedback from corporations but. [19:36] No the interesting thing and i don't know if you guys know this but when someone is running inside your boots and your release within the organization they are, der windows ten deployment and stay up-to-date is way faster is faster by like ten or something insane like i'm not following. [19:54] So if you're inside or if you are someone who works in a company and your release pills your company is far more likely to upgrade to the latest version all can offer a technical interview yo are losers is there any chance to learn yet because they've already tested wraps infrastructure on the latest version they're like were all clear our HR app that pays us continues to work so we can deploy to the entire company yet, so many times appointments to happen because of that fear of oh my god why is this going to take down. Speaking appointments and upgrade cycles starting next month microsoft can i start making some people to upgrade. [20:35] Windows seven will get rid of windows seven windows seven ears are gonna start getting reminders. U still a lot of fights with seven years out there that have not not to windows ten i think i need to be reminded what is the first i've microsoft and something like that. Especially in consumer space will i think part of it's just insecurity because we live in a world where we're insecure every minute right and at some point we're going to stop supporting windows seven and those users are going to be like super vulnerable and these are the users should not be warmer please people as we were talking hurts summit something were calling not talking to you, will try to connect with the name for those who are so open to suggestions so right now the current window name is casual users so casual users to all the people who you have to ask you for advice on which laptop to buy which antibiotics to get better so tender of course how many records related but. [21:33] We need to make sure to build technology that works for them and this reminder is technology that they would know that since eight i guess i should upgrade were aware when seven hundred life because, we are leaving this world, but most people have no idea what you're talking about like i bought a laptop ten years ago why do i have to get used harley and i know that's what will you send the receipt and don't even realize how long will the bot has part that some people still many people dislike the word riba can you think about upgrading refrigerator but if it's not connecting i have no idea how long it doesn't work that's kinda getting promotions lets you kinda do, you are great deal to the side of it like you don't like the milk there for ten years right so you os is like your mother you do. What is soon coming soon as your appliances become internet connected lol refrigerators or do i need to cancel my login and update them to me for the same reason securities exam recently.

Hi cross-platform ability and i especially across devices that aren't even for whatever reason windows devices are so good ready go. Are you trying to do for example rate for whole and you should read up so i can depends in what said that the solution is your trying to achieve will take the information. Cancer cancer. How many bagels have a question should i carry an older we go hi i'm from germany and we have also have a podcast with dave. What year ago while you're very cool yourself my question. We talk about windows ten and also about hardware so since i think one week this new surface headphones is available to germany to here we are very happy so i can place another memorial. Open movie on the oppression is. [27:47] Do you have the chance to test the new headphones windows time together umm what is your. Do you have swiss new they call skype call of this was what you feeling. Um it's a good combination for example for your service projects all access who is gonna take that. [28:08] Does someone have an answer to this because i actually don't have service and phones i dont really listen seven gonna end up you gotta take da time and once answer simon once and i like this could stan smith would a someone else please inside there someone i should a pizza you guys know has any more than we can i get the answer so actually i'm sorry i fucked up with you. Hmmm i was down to the bellevue store okay to test the server has been chris i was interested is well and is so. What's the weather for sky gazing july, hi just the mouse and jim did not deduction where is she was great in ohio i can hear the yeah the store right next to me was when i speaking to him asking me so many. Fetch still here a little and a little bit which is great say seven just behind me here. Send adam sleep sounds great to listen to music and then also nokia keeps me involved of your colleagues so. It's a great campaign of headphones. I am saying something else and see if your developer in open works days he should check in with ya think i think though that working in germany. [29:35] Alright no other questions from the audience. [29:38] I got one for each review um can you tell me one cool thing that insiders someone the world is doing the world to know about. [29:48] Hell yeah you got inside all day ok so when cool things um there's a woman named you. Shit i meant in south africa she has a four year old son choose play young and she's got a four year old son and he was teaching the four year old son, a lot of like psychological coding games and the sun has learned so many interesting things that hes done that, we want to learn about these logic in coding games so all of these parents are not reaching out to you know in her early twenties. [30:19] Create a coding that logic tools for these young people who live in south africa that are culturally relevant there. So she that's what she's doing we're inviting her to comedy showcase your work various conferences this year because we thought that was pretty cold inside it's really cool so weird talking to gloria yesterday we are suggesting that we want to interview insider doing interesting things but also that can be a good place to start. No running in the same vein dr moses. So he is working in port harcourt nigeria he's using windows devices windows inside or how many he's working to save the pregnant ones lights, nigeria one in thirty woman dies in childbirth and pregnancy standing using mobile windows technology an ultrasound machine, he's going to someone stream remove parts of that country, n giving people some of the basic medical diagnosis in care ati he can have service is little using technology to say peoples lives. Set up my first choice though that's a, we are up there that's probably at the summit like it's not inside your doing great how about files and other crafts also know someone who is doing amazing things anyone has questions the german guys have plans have questions answers, in germany we have also a lot of people they can't do it. [31:45] I um i'm have lot of discussions how to begin on how to stop for example you start with a stagnant you can, i use for example receive new code using your mac and also new device or like that so i'm so the question in the lounge how we can stop with cody. [32:07] What is lots of ways to pennsylvania target audience what's your favorite want to make it relevant and fun for the participants no like the carpenter with kevin baker both actually who was doing home automation he didn't think he was going he was making his lights go on and on, add rate for him so it was fun for him and relevant for an assignment question. I'm so yeah sweeping during the hour is well roots you think of you free minecraft ad and i have my son have to do it i need shipping. I am here and have options of trying to coach the moment. So i'm not i started off when i was adam ten years old and i started to let him out. I'm not a computer. Lol script and then not so i can start business just use people like jeremiah who you know what you can do with coach that i learned from you. I'm it sure is cool i'm just by increase finances to the what. [33:22] What would you do on the computer or id schedule just pages you enjoy that part of it so, that's not how to start so i did a workshop at my sons school using scratch for my team to get the browser based really really accessible and i'd be setting up a couple more of these for parents and kids to come together because what you said in some parts of the world it 's not a good idea for some people to be as soon as i give it gets better but cautious about that um um, prepared and keep it so expensive its all they need is a computer with a browser can be a tablet it can be, running match making the old days microsoft and then houston coming but order me language besar, youtube thinks it's amusing just to help small the barriers to entry like a little you can fire up notepad. You can write your first web page no pad. View help on first pages are done can you get anything you can see it in the browser that comes with your device when u a little just reading code and then you can email. [34:36] Find out find out about something called java script and you can not change the color of things by clicking a button and sew all the things you can do and its very simple but it just requires delivery only a device electricity, and if you like you can have. Tell her to get really fancy that's all you need and before you know what you think angular node js compressed absolutely i need no what cody has some really kool language behind it. Ruby on rails python developer who ordered who is a pet rose your negative answers badly that again. [35:14] Start chatting with the question is very serious notified when i have collective um. Is there a community that would be available when people get kinda hang up on. Writing code when trying to learn what i can get reach out and get some help the great question so the answer is yes and no to for that answer two true we need your help. [35:38] So violent lol little italy there are whole bunch of things that we can do. Alfred behind a computer in redmond and we can make these things available world. Find little of that someone doesn't go to their device and so you know is basic coding goes to the device instead hey. My friend i know u dont know when you want to learn let me help you recommend little for some people that's how they learn they are not self tie they don't have it on no immediately go to a search engine and it's way easier if you have to help with someone who is an expert. And so i'm literally sending it to the end how will it depends on a couple of things first, people like you who are willing to help with set up then collective in your local towns and cities. Seven seconds is provided continue to provide feedback on how we can make it better. I'm because again we dont from sitting in seattle washington it isn't always apparent that the challenge is the one assaulted within their of feeling in johannesburg if u live in richmond city. [36:45] And the. [36:47] Join my friend and the other thing leaving what is the bethany like the communities the people who live in the city understand the problem so the city way better than we write so its another insider song but he lives in nepal in kathmandu nepal when i was walking actually i'm and i don't speak a word of apology my first language s plus so not that how are returns but stop of is taking microsoft learn content translating into the poly, because he doesn't which is awesome just awesome please do that please do that because he doesnt want people have to learn english also coding because that's too barriers that bill become so would it help that we give him yes he reach out hey can you pass this feedback on to the product team at central where the alarm team that these words don't translate that well its a threat, that's where we can help we can help make better product so that we can all go out and leave these community. [37:42] Jeremiah what's your favorite language what's my favorite language coding language so actually i am coming back to java script, get back in the old days i start with you for wednesday, i would like to return once my backyard is java script is only for front end web development but now with all this computer a whole bunch of stuff you can do before i'm back on the front and the connectivity connected database is like having something else in the cloud so, in terms of a large and thriving community of people. Who can do a whole bunch of things and actively working on the language to make it better and with the tools like i called the VS code typescript is open just things you can add onto to java java java script. No i was scared to leave my answer i think this is different okay java script is not a language first of all second of all flights of icenter yeah.

It's gonna be the same type of things that the people who are gonna loan folding bones of the folks that have got that kind of disposable cash and it's just not gonna be mainstream at least not in the current configuration know like you said david its prototype it's very much product if you watch the videos you can see the fold on the screen and all kinds of crazy stuff some legacy yes and it was sent by. Who's did u say forget the name of its like wow i can really imagine having this once it weighs like cats much, feels heavy traffic so you're not interested in that eighteen thousand million phone it's basically a battery with the screen on it i think i should end the essay, will it ever had a really interesting thing about it talked about the the. Pendulum phone phone startup academy day one got really really really small i got big and release now so it wouldn you got a regular funny cat slam it down and hang up at seven thirty a smashed screen is now withholding jose show your emotions and you hang up being really bitchy and i saw that there was so funny because something is something our flat screen glass phones gets scratched up and break, quickly so what's something curb gonna do. [6:37] Um i think the hinge in the soft screen that the flexible screen pointed that yet but once closed can you drop it screens protected scream right now except for the one on the outside if we can screen on the outside, what why who when you.

It's compatibility solution is now. They weren't talking like that when i first came out but it means go make a default browser. [9:20] Yeah on windows ten that's what crumbs for sure, right so what we have to say about that here's the thing about this okay that is exactly why internet explorer in windows ten it's so that enterprise and business customers can have backwards compatibility line of business apps. Introduce things leading up to windows seven in the lifecycle next january suggest desktop sure which three you send a help companies get up to speed so that their line of business and are compatible with the new browser and think about it the last of what is the OE is eleven right that's in windows ten that's right, so that was released for windows ten this email back in twenty fifteen, so you are already talking about a browser that is very old that handsome security updates but that's not the rendering engine not the nevada been updated so is not far off base and saying it is just the compatibility tool at this point. [10:20] Alright so let's remove our humble opinion is right okay yeah i'm people who are using it. What takes up space and task fbi router.

Joel what you tell us what you do in your spare time. [17:39] I would like to know when did you find a cool things you do i have been working on my photography i wanted to know the mean. Yes i know it dogs are asleep dogs and then. I've been working in my old card again which has been on and take your answer something like that so i can come down to seattle. Yeah i think it is nice while now you're getting a new phone i mean you knew camera. [18:14] I'm getting a new phone yes i'm getting a new camera with the phone attached to it when i. The the new hyde nokia nigeria i hear what is the camera on it yet yet who is actually funny i was listening to last week's podcast and um. You should've taken off all the different things the you need a new phone. N this phone actually text i think all of those boxes sometime weather you wanted headphone jack not doing headphone jack twyman the samsung s ten. Headphone jacks and i've been using bluetooth headphones for over five years now. Hey the only the only thing that i keep headphone wire headphones, is for podcasts i need your like the old nokia when's that came with my nine twenty lots of water headphones decent ones to self, let's have the option but i wanted to charge the damn so that you travel. [19:19] Change battery to write about you turn on the phone not on the phone in the flight is it does a little bit of using bluetooth also have the wrong battery but you gotta worry about tryna does your plane and and people trying to get in and out your space and don't have wires yes how much and i don't drive that was actually the reason i bought my first car bluetooth headphones in a plane and i had, my headphones plugged in my laptop and somebody like, i'm on the laptop on the table training like that's it i'm done with wires. But i am very excited about getting this phone because i think its it's a true successor to the, give me a ten twenty and even the nine fifty am benjamin hangout at my nine fifty i just haven't found anything that was compelling enough to replace it and when this came up on like, ok i think it's time for joe to get a new phone how are they alike or disliked about quick question about wireless headphones do they say you'll need space compared to wired headphones. [20:23] Cam yet just depends on the twitch you get a min of u get just your boobs then absolutely. Why is a space right her what does richard muller if you like good good headphones of the audio tecnica, play the m fifty now have a bluetooth version and if you read the reviews and they say well they set out to create a wireless headphone which is good as beat the classic are you technically and fifty lacs which is your most popular studio headphones with the most popular audio file it because it, performance exceeds price i have two hundred us help them feel less madison for last night on amazon etc. The reviewer said failed try to make one that sounds as good as the original it sounds better, i got some of my son for his birthday in the really nice i got a pair myself that you sound a little bit nicer in the middle of jazz and things like that but anyways, bulls are there other areas did the surface headphones i'm sorta hoping they come up with some service it's what i'm looking for a surface headphones reviewers dont particularly care for. [21:43] Yeah, what's the angle that what is the angle because they're not quiet the same audio file level is another similar headsets are always dollar dollar for dollar you get more with others. I cant because your much deeper and canada even after currency conversion really yes i want to buy that is right so if not how that works good a parent. Human forgotten is here in the room tell us what cool things he does and i order the safeway it another statement from that. [22:19] Well um young charlie cathy i got yes i know so well. You know what's funny the richard talks about space because that me and my daughter is that. Really joy talking about space and any really feel the excitement know what spacex and remember, when is spacex landed the first time phase one back on or if you know that was just amazing you know remember going to my daughter and showing it to her and she was excited for it as well so. So love the space and the same time is it in new robotics for a few years now so just come there. Robotics like coding can still feel young but what's your definition a robot what's her definition a robot her definition a robot. She would tell me that it has to have sensors so it has to have a license or or an audio sensor or some type of sensor for movement i'm so she is very big on me. [23:25] Update the components of a robot so it's not so much but intelligent but its about you nobody can i just in terms of information. [23:34] I like that definition right and the subscribed to the laws of robotics to, who i don't think so okay not yet arrived so what cool things do you do what cool things i do so oven euros spent a lot of my family so. I know. You know i was trying to keep up with andrew and i constantly stuff coming in is a kind of it takes over your life you know. Why do you like going down south i do love going down south that is true yet where where. So me and the family started cruising last year so good for a first cruise last year oven and we went to another cruise a couple weeks ago i'm and other colonies where he can find out that i'm going for two weeks on back to back cruises in december, nice nearby yes my boss told me take it to him directly just podcast explosion so, we typically cruise out of we typically cruise out of fort lauderdale fl or miami. Gotcha that's not to far for me richard help just on the coast yeah so its great easy and. [24:58] Alright sounds like if you really want to try and adventurous cruz, have a look up look up delete cruz jay GE UL PET over and turkey. My wife and i did one of your years ago it was amazing okay cruising turkey. Remember i got the part of the turkey no that's good so i think it's broken. Are you up so you like to cruise with my face would you want to be a space to rest. What i want to be no yes all this question and answer s. [25:40] Then what's your answer richard yes the bed is it hot minute. Hot minute there in a heartbeat what about would you wanna be one of the first column is on march. [25:56] No no that implies you would be coming home soon gonna go yeah one way trip i wanna murder, let me my age i hate it when you return to space jesus mean like when you go up on the corner by jenny up and yeah we can i purchase a, umm you do that's pay security on us the other day sad, spacex is considering putting private tourist on a dragon on submission rejection rates. What's that there's room for seven you can be configured for a maximum of seven that's correct the current one of us can figure it for four i okay great. And william shatter said that he'd go if they paid enough compared me being on one of those is worth it to whoever, where can we go to mars if the order we go to mars and painting know he go he want the first passenger for space tourism if they pay him anything book a surprise, is there only i don't know what we're talking about cool things that i do every time but eric eric have you been exercising your liver. Exercising my liver no i have not been exercising my liver because this is going to be eric's first and michele have you been to. [27:21] I think this is gunna be my fourth david one. Richard this will be my supplement i think my eight thirty nine am because i got to spend some mini summit hub done so i think god two thousand twelve was my first official one, can i have a couple of my product group and complex results retire the old guys. [27:47] Okay umm but eric never been to one so what should he expect that i i think the first thing has to be especially if you've been a fan of the microsoft ecosystem for a long time it's just that kind of sensation the first time right on campus in UC the the microsoft sign in front of the building and stuff like that for me that first year was just a venda, can i only had set alarm then see because i'd never been to campus in that i have to attend my first few moments i started getting opportunities go to campus for work related reasons since i am actually flying in the fourteen the thursday before submit them doing some work related stuff on campus on friday and it's just it's the nearest thing ticket. I'm a big dallas cowboys fan for instance, i'm hard the hopeless cowboys fan but i will never forget going to charlotte north carolina with my wife and daughter to watch them play in the christmas eve game against the yeah the panthers and we stayed the same hotel. [28:56] And my wife tells the story edward and get ready go to sleep on friday night, what's cowboys are sleeping up there is thinking of thing, is it gonna on campus and see where we're all the stuff happens that you know about need learned about NEC but you never actually seen been on campus to see it experience that is just the coolest thing it's really. Ok so you get the CI. [29:24] I want to say that because many of them latest behind the doors to see that we have to rinse while we do get a peek in under are NDA, which some of the groups i'm gonna give her the medicine talk about products and stuff like that which i think is to reflect that the trust so many people with that information, i mean i'm sure eric even attended a call right when do the events we have product group interactions with column will be no love something something something concept, except now you're standing in front of the people you said you find the people that are doing and the people you've known on social media and the prince what are you you send your mp so where inside peace is what i am also windows ten devices for it MVP but you know you the people that you've interacted with you through those sessions online forum you through social media are you actually get to put faces and names in the same physical space which is just like us what is the spacing continue, how did i start this change no but in reality i didn't say you were you thinking for this year. Hey prepared to not sleep a whole lot and i'll be prepared to have a whole pile of. Yeah and i am gonna be hosting the girls get together and bring hoodie. [30:48] Sweet same night as the windows developers think that will go there first quarter for dinner then come by for drinks after you were the last year and the year before you can a couple of. [31:01] Yeah did you see that the windows inside and pees are included in the windows to BSCS you but it's a night of my other events i have to both. We're actually paired up with them throughout the week i think not nice why is this year the windows and devices guys are right beside the indian guys, good a size of campus across the highway last year. [31:27] Let's challenge would you give to steve the sessions tomorrow too, yes the intended coming up okay anybody else everything but this years expectations i'm expecting there to be a little bit afraid because i can t deny i don't know why. [31:43] Because there's a movement to remove the clean me pizza region and make it just north america who would be a problem. I have zero problem with people being proud of that heritage of their heritage your country that kind of thing another european guys do it i have zero issue with dad now if. If they are making changes to the program because of the fishing season cost savings and things like that that's a whole lotta wax but i mean weve already seen it call me when i have been part of the program for long enough to have seen some significant changes over the last three orders were is my tenth year so we've seen a lot of changes happened what are the course did that ten years and you know it's very different it's not what we're used to it's not the way we used to do things but you know that, they're a business they have to make changes to it why they don't do that consumer brands anymore you know that kind of loud the main program and also the rationale behind this is a little different we lost or canadian lead last year. [32:47] And they did not replace them what the decision will be made with my american lead the christian right christian and betsy betsy betsy has east coast and canada. N christina covers everything else he replaced dark oh joe went to facebook and i uh, in fact i can't email from christian yesterday was it reduced the term can the amount i did know why we use the term can the sooner i think i do yeah he probably just not replace the position and we had a lot of canadian only programs yeah we will not seen or MVP leader of we will get a lot of busy can you just allow another family the lot these days so she want to know anything even one other place other so it's a it's different. Yeah no yes she didn't wanna don't wanna steven r. can you give me a pink leather from melbourne to there spell that for shit so that's what i'm doing and sorry have country pride. So it's gonna be a private party. [33:57] Ok so no big picture on the stairs with a map of your hotel, why don't we talk little bit about how to become MVP, will it change now okay well can bring enough so in the past you can nominate yourself or you have anybody else nominate you anybody other MVP or just added plan anybody on the planet okay i feel probably people in place who is that anybody with that not using it using a browser would be the first to go to space it they let me. Are you sure you are. I think when it got something special anyways i need peanut needed and based in community contributions. [34:45] I just had to be a window that side or MVP. Any tips be when is assignment begin with is it right that we'll finish different ride to be on that has the other stuff like that and criteria and, i got the same thing in a few doing presentations on windows articles blogs podcasts that service to have your whatever you like, one million other i did lots of local events so in person events so that's something that i feel comfortable doing so i like speaking infront of people, hum just some blogging but not more stuff. If you in person can really feel that that would you like that i really like it thank you you're gonna love summit. [35:43] Will you take that community feel about the times post just the sheer number of people that are gonna be there and you can get the meat so many others i'm not with only within your own AVP category but the product teams things like that but just the just the other people and i encourage you to take advantage of that opportunity uno set but it was somebody different breakfast, find out where they cannot find out where they're from what they're doing in the stock when does it do they feed to set the hotels breakfast at the hotel lunch in the in the presentation lunch during summit, launch the app and no delete events go to a different group sessions cancelled twice i think diane and i have not been given.

Observe tech projects will i get yeah so we got to observe dot tech that's the one to the domaine i have to ask but what what a lot of people don't realize is that intro i actually built entro en courses got a space theme to it because it's got a count down to the launch, up the podcast and i have a lot of people don't realize that that is me doing the voice over yet so if you do i can't i can't. Play something for you guys still here cuz i can't do it to my phone please type a new skype play let me play an audio file yeah i don't know if i'm on the right side because i don't even have the background blur on their release offer.

[57:16] What do you see there i'm not going there right now is helping you can do that then. [57:30] I got nothing gigabytes gigabytes gigabytes podcast dot com. [57:39] Nothing nothing lol.

Good morning windows and other things said your host richard hey windows and a book hard cover. That's my usual i have an interest since the first episode where i tested all my gear right beside that is me that is no used audacity. I wrote the script that the recording my normal boyfriend and i used audacity cdtools to deepen and flow yoga and that's the biggest pizza feedback i got from episode three hundred what about the content who is about the fact that my boys over the voice over at the beginning of the shelf but you know something of you just help me to make a phone call that the we are here near was, what is the galaxy s nine plus lol there ya have it is also up lol so using real browser using it. [59:18] I know i'm using raspberry founded ok and what was that what's the posts there. Countdown to chaos when is the test for thinking countdown how do you spell by. Why did call that's what tripped me up so it's gigabytes podcast dot com you will have gigabytes dot com redirected to add we have a deal with somebody on that. We make a lot of money which by the way wont happen, then we have the capacity to modify them know you re feeling five percent of our lord the thing is that you know it all serious, podcasting if there was a time frame that people find podcast was in his demise, no that's not true they're i agree i agree but people on the outside looking in where its over i know that but i think about no i'm not gonna say its because popular people but you started podcasting i mean i give an example tone-in-tone o'brien does him his nighttime show right but it also does a podcast rich eyes and post the NFL network but it does a podcast during the week so. [1:00:32] And some people do there live show on tv video and then post audio is so insane that my podcast so beautiful truly there's a lot going on in the podcast world, that that is really starting to your host and this on your yes we are, i just realized that looking at the address anyway so that was a big silver squirrel in there, you know there was this time the people just start podcast and was just a non paying and it's still not not that is that makes and its not a data type. Exactly because and it's just so what is your experience been so far on a cure with that. What you mean we load experience we've been hosting websites on android for you have been getting service is also known as your ok i didn't realise am. Very often. [1:01:31] Right now if that makes sense i will use create what we get in for free so we life it does i was hosting my audio files on azure, add just using what's called a blog storage basically, when i started to hit some issues with the cost and i am exceeding my freaking out so i basically moved all my stuff to my host. So i got ahold three hundred four episode hosted at my hotel in the directory but not a break in about the three and four but, note hey why did three hundred eleven gears get there any brad pit that out like four episodes year let's play. [1:02:12] But it's funny because i started that podcast before i retired from the navy about four years before i retired an unforeseen that drove my schedule for a lot of different things that was only in retirement that i was able to actually start being consistent, and in fact in that episode three hundred i shared some tips with folks the challenge podcasting is consistency. And doing weekly been consistent always showing up because people want to start listening bai hat there's an expectation there is a relationship and i will i will often have to skip in episodes for some reason it there's one guy in the netherlands a good friend of mine and if i will have no from ham on skype or messenger or something to say everything ok you know because i'm so um. And then the other thing is please get me out there and all the distribution systems so i've been lucky enough to get picked up on itunes i heart radio spotify i'm the google podcast app now in the amazon alexa there's this really cool school called ne pod, yeah i had a hard time get my own skill to work properly but this is nifty. Replying back stuff on you know the audio system digital assistant. [1:03:28] It's a lot of joy when are they gonna the things i can do is calling is gonna be alexa and people who were actually trade echoes and randomly say things to alexa and see what happened to the other guy's house to drop it at your kids, skip the yellow, do you know who is going to bed then when i first put digital assistance in my back office so you're here you can see it but, oops i bought the camera so you can see here i got a google mini i got the invoke and i got on the dot. And the first time i said that data or the info i can't remember which i seriously was away at a conference working covering the conference and i thought i messaged my wife. I'm gonna send some loud music across that thing or something like that never did how many good thinking i didn't but you know that there's a lot of stuff that can be done with these things the stage that's a lot of fun. Microsoft missed out play the lights like on purpose. Do you think val went to talk about a big news story this past week what about the news on friday that band. [1:04:41] Did you see that news they're giving refunds people have been to. No band one as well if you been active between december first in friday lunch first if you had sync data at least once you would get i think like seventy five bucks back, verde original band if it survived that long does bill of things broke like horrible and am for band two hundred seventy five bucks to my band what do you think dad in that dream of me i couldn't because the band, stop doesn't work i had been broke that's a problem that was the problem with the band was the quality of the bands yet, hi i actually have my wife still has a band two. That lives permanently on its stand an alarm clock for something i had no way of getting her to see text messages it's only can use it in the kitchen. [1:05:34] And it and it don't stand right next to there tv in the kitchen could you put your headphones on and work at which is working way and can't hear anything get all that funny then send it notification device they have said that when all the services go offline on may thirty first, that if you ever have to reset your band after that point theres no getting back because the services will be available. So you won't be able to reset the device after may thirty first right so we need to wind down before we get that can we pick your brain a little bit. Review couple of iraq couple of our second ideas you think second ideas for this podcast for the. [1:06:22] Ruth 34 34. No no that should a said audience paltan that's naughty as well so get the trust me it's funny, weird convergence if you technologies were blended together like a motorola razer can actually shave with a blow. I Not necessarily with blade but maybe like a film directed yeah examples of things like that rite email from tech support.

Alright but that's not why is both of us are working at service canada and will not let to talk about that but whatever. [4:05] Add that stop.

The targets display link docs do not support power for the, everything good tips for everything else lenovo the television for the one that the user add a standard hotel in station which is very well engineered does not work with their standard, this is why they make such good customers. [5:27] We both have them so as part of it we got i got the coconut get another surface but what was interesting call david. You can leave ten cable lock for surface pro and surface go. [5:43] And it locks onto instead of the seton hall which doesn't exist lox on to kick-stand it as i think it would work on your. Not a pro bro got a problem that's not is well. Because anything i have a little notch at the edge and then you can use your computer to walk at store you can file download nabi had to truck, display museum have bad is it for a people picker inside of the pickup for you can bring it to turn off the kick-stand yeah. What's the alright so. [6:19] How much episode hundred go back to early days talk about security for service at an what was the other you said that your production is well we have to target specific request open up and try to get so let's talk about the writing get a service dog i was excited about how surface stock if you have from middle here is another one free one for home yet um. But that being said i will try out the target stock and material. [6:46] Awsome alright any other things to talk about fletcher the week know how to talk more about yours. New story at the we all right so this is actually a week for now into what the twenty first of february this is really a news story from earlier this month ok so first week of february around the third the fourth of people having connection problems connecting to a windows update, okay add that's bad bad for two reasons one get update to the machine to protect potentially compromised. [7:23] Add another way that it seem to be a DNS related issue which is interesting, attack that often hi jackie robinson redirect things like microsoft updates your own sore yes i am start pushing your own, update my hair quotes right and download official update my be trojans etc. Turned out to be corruption in india and asking people that switch to google public DNS didn't have the issue with buddy got that suppose to. [7:55] I suppose to redeem it like i'm whatever demons is people still yes still the issue is out. Quit yourself when does the update service was impacted by a data corruption issue an external dns service provider global outage on january twenty ninth, two thousand nineteen issue was resolved on the same day and went is updated now operating normally but a few customers have continued to report issues connecting to the windows update service we expect these issues will go away as down stream DNS servers are updated with the corrected windows and microsoft something out well that's replication i don't know but i push something out and emptiness wrong and then it was whatever we got corrupted so that's what happened but it's been so. [8:42] Okay so that's good not david you got some other avenues you wanna talk about today was a big deal this week is a big week got yeah for the korean phone maker i got yes for samsung even mentioning my peterson one y suggest to go from the galaxy phone cuz, it's very expensive you like expensive the very much. [9:03] What's new with custom apps for everything are something so we have three screens send this announce high screen and then it unfolds and makes a tablet. Okay baby shoes it's about to tour i got pictures that'll be praying for the handle together and then i fold them out if i'm reading it but at like three to park. [9:25] How can i delete that wake up. Are you know which is that interesting idea and i saw product or product i guess the production version of when i was at CES of another company, add if its anything like the thickness of the one from the galaxy it's really cold but its papi years ahead of its time i think sharon microsoft patterns for folding devices two people at the andromeda was awful and i think fielding devices will have a place i don't think i'll be super mainstream um, i think it's really a doctors and people at the hav learned, i think we'd have some cousin apps that are designed specifically for the form factor before it really takes off have you seen this touchpad center load this place is like that to take off everywhere except the cheapest computers but foldable phone that, three no matter how is technologies it's gonna be twice as thick belgium because spices much will that touch bars are popular in las vegas touch bars on macs are not true because they get all jeremy so the mars essentially that same display touchpad great so i can see that serves people me popular ok let's move from hell isn't two thousand dollars and three trains that is right and what is this, no keeping your think check back back alright alright. [10:44] So people been waiting counting down i don't think that happened we have the first production foldable. No no the other company we talk to has a problem that's true but i mainstream and i don't think anybody is really yeah that's right maybe more the one i more excited about because i never told you make google pixel three story to die, is the dumpster or look up the arcade help you confuse me dumpster fires good or bad let's go with the bad version of them server okay what you think oliver set up a good think this order stop at cold country are a bad thing because it's probably talking spell play google pixels deals for the after party, i want a google pixel three different ones i had to return it and also you take it, i had written before it was only fifteen day window to return it and yet so numb even the return of the pain start playing bad about that for the after party but i'm still looking for a new phone to the house out, i took my second choice the phone was god was the one touch ultra sixty one plus one plus what i see aswell that your back that hear back in vegas. Right so a problem with that is it's not the ip six or seven rated. Ok it would pass at peterson want to pay for the certification sure echo also i wanted what's up what's up with profit would you think that. [12:13] What is the color accurate they can't prove it so take yo are right. So then will the second piece so that was that you didn't have charging zillable two things i wanted uh but nicer confounding good price you know when you know when she is really handy, it's a bigger phone about what and it won't let us the park cuz it's wet, can you can you should charging will talk more but then the minute but i think the camera wasn't as good as some else and some of the more he died it was fantastic despite my iphone six plus which was great. So i didn't go with that ugly but now that its out add lot of interesting facts snapdragon eight fifty five so it's really fast processor add other models going from eight eight gigs of twelve gigs of ram ever am lol start hundred twenty eight gigs of storage up to a terabyte. A story of internal error is adding an internal plus taken all taken sd card except for the the five g version. [13:24] What are the five degrees because the terabyte anyways what are the five you virgin price is not released yet but. Only got two to mainstream versions they're both pretty rockin phones ugh i got four cameras on them. Southern iphone but he recibido fingerprint reader on the front one of them has a fingerprint reader on the side button. And they're using a fingerprint reader which is harder to fake out when things dont have none of them actually has facial recognition i think what you're doing is there waiting for google to embed that in the google. You have the cameras in heat there's something fun for red can have so two hundred and phone have the right camera however, i'll go they had if we have facial recognition on the product previous samsung device, they haven't put into this phone so interesting how she look at my phone and only have sixty four gigs or have sixty four gigs of add it for free and then break my other phone in december sometime and, i only use like forty five cakes offer last few months i was pushing up against my sixty four gig limit in cleaning it up all the time moving photos of things that had a bunch of podcasts from stuff you should know take a nap but fifteen games cleaned off and back. I put sixty four gigs is enough for me i am up against that all the time now what is the optional. [14:47] Did that but goes away so here is what i'm so three other interesting features on these phones. Charging what i wanted but she charging power. If i don't like cheating what so yeah so my phone can charge your phone. While i do so that below thirty percent of charge the dropdown but still its nice work inside the lights battery the other day so he could you call the three second hand. I want why should i do that who would he here so first. Get me a charger friends battery etc um. Sharing is caring me to the point where you don't daniel battery what for things like god you're bad what ever that have wireless charging. It can charge those on top of the wall plug it in to charge and then put those on top so i can charge those other here's the one thing i love about the staff. It's really flagship phone now if there from a manufacturer that still has a headphone jack. [15:59] I'm very excited about so that wireless power and we get in the airplane menu, what ever connector to get with your phone and you can buy that three dollar headset for heineken. Is alex ok you could at least listen to something about the airplane instead of the ordered is worth a lot of oliver how many airline headphones you have. Ok so i'm that important no back to the wireless power sharing their not the first one to have this the hallway has well let the participant also wireless password sharing. Password harvesting procreate are you spell out okay so it's probably you some password jarvis staying at the same time you you really yeah. [16:47] Asking politics okay i already done so, looking for that i know try one having to order one not available in canada until march ok but it's like march other things coming we have talked about. [17:02] What are count down count down to talk about that later okay alright u wanna talk about the latest inside a building so often microsoft record for getting everything ready for the next version of windows tend to be almost done so that's nineteen, which one first half and microsoft and one small introduces third skip ahead. Set up a dinner thing but skip ahead this time when you said if you got twenty eight one. [17:29] Ok so tell me more about that so that's gonna be a fall release and a yeah, next spring release practice expect that has not changed but they're doing is there a introducing the longer it is time for some of the features set the pudding and for a twenty to twenty play if you need to test more before releasing david. I'm so what happened with, how is SPH doing whatever they're always feel that a problem that i don't wanna say this but description i want to what's the doing that is so fundamental that they won't have yours with the testing i think insiders are doing their job, that's right that's what i okay so look a good to know so you can get on. [18:15] Right now we're about fifth we can get in three different way shut okay so. Microsoft's windows ten will comment your storage for upgrade so microsoft is going to be reserving storage and harddrive so that has no space to operate as part of the problem that some of the upgrades are failing in the past so within the food stores available. What is interesting so i guess that's good idea yet you have you can be clean up your hard drive from the remove your old images and stuff too just keep that. [18:47] So that's enough to download and install adobe of alcohol don't delete that text yeah exactly is going to happen but anyways ummm, so im looking but seven gigs at the gonna reserve space to download, find me a great zombie like three years from now saying you cannot create a more you always feel that pretty good idea especially if there betting is used in two years we need to give people a way to upgrade. [19:14] Music. [19:22] Hot red. That's it for the nearest taco bell a little bit household as we do have a gas hand surgery much do you have any news to share with the fellas.

Pause until dusk by the way i'll look for some podcasts actually added this insults and smooth people don't notice that we just jumped right back. Will you switch to have our listeners straight we're not interested in linear time so we got to talk about office available to progressive web app in the okay okay right so what does that mean it's basically the, versions of office three hundred sixty five pounds of that running your browser but they don't know the progress of web app so which is simpler versions of the read the other find but you would want to read a book but. [25:47] Do you know anyone reading a book and exactly fit the screen so i'm not sure if you were to write a thesis actually sleep anyways the room available progressive website how would that help me cope because it because of what apps are essentially platform independent. [26:03] So is the web browser will the weather it's what i would the first what's your branch of using that versus just diet, as a progressive web app in a browser where is that i'm doing well while you have to worry about tabs and things like that you can see it runs owns bubble right, progressive web apps yes ok so the third have available get me that ok so progressive web apps are, kind of bridging the gap between what were universal apps and web apps let's go to the store to fix in the middle where is roger stone container at runs a beautiful menu interest american write offline mode and would be great and i don't know something like like for start what kinda like what chrome call there a gear straight gears to use google docs or whatever you can run in offline mode is the professor web apps lazio on offline mode is well brightness to using a brother to also but doesn't have to be connected to the internet for a couple more rumors.

Unless what was module one for modular based on the form for the other pieces like a good. I don't have a good exactly or different GUI for legos. Rice vs what i write in all of that's what i expected to see in the next crop of devices.

Yeah as well as any that's a good thing back to menu just can't get that your that's true the problem get the velvet hair yes that's true and we both got here so. They're not going anywhere we can still taste all of these on the show at some point so which one u twenty in the mood for all definitely be yeah, that's only that but that has minion 1 that what you read the back of the bottle okay okay so um when do you close on the eighteen twenty five henry. [34:41] Hello you hows your HEL YEA. I understand i became one of the first europeans settlers, i want to set foot in the harsh and wilderness have northwest tasmania in his role as chief server. What's the band is to italy so i have been to the northwest area of me and i have to agree it is a rather a harsh area. Spending the evening at legion there are almost two hundred years later his road now guys the way. To the elements road discovery of so we didn't make the whiskey they just need the names of the road. Yes that's the road and the story it is here at the premium quality test me and green is patiently combined with some of the world's paris drinking water. And what you doing half times. Distilled water than air and individual select american white oaks char fired cats. [35:56] Would you have time, what's the half time i don't know what to add to the have children i make exactly where to half costs turn off and yes so anyways are so quick to secure a ticket with a grain of salt because that's really on everything going on and on about the salmon salmon has made it land exactly what will the hold on tasmania is not in atlantic where is the hotel gonna try it right and i did some research when i came back and asked. [36:28] It's transplant nova scotia salmon with a friend, yeah so where are they different okay but because it s me and sally gotten stuck is translate as many salmon so transfer that feeling itself is not exactly so let's see what we can got to see what they say about it, there is always the hardest arena, no not that me the so called interstellar years road is still rate this actually quite a lot of distilled in australia use road however single malt the ten year old they got there. Ugh really talk with the twelve year old girl be a reasonable so he is rod single malt portman is it no nope nope i woke ask, why don't charge so i dont have that in your what can i fit. It's interesting to talk about death australia's whiskey industry problem count toward search hundred with skis we have to try before i know but i did get this as a valentine's gift and whiskey diarrhea so i have to write something about it. [37:40] Stop let me open it and let me talk to so while doing that that's kind of a caramel get help, i was thinking like sweet educate him interesting smell of the last place i know we talked about them asheville and how they make the war and how it all of distilled technically brewers as well because ive gotta actually. [38:05] Create some alcohol through hoops brewing and family to still try to talk to except the same with the beer is made it's brutal up there this is barely rather grains so. [38:18] David has meaning whiskey for you have a traffic light there glass for me, help me with payments till we talk we talked about we talked about the brew thing, we've talked about the disc feeling never really talk much about the agents of the bottle left want to get the picture for me. So i have any pictures of the kensington devices well so you tell david i meant thursday not make me wait. Too bad i can't get it yet arrived so whenever you talk to agent and whiskey are typically aged in barrels but that typically what is the difference is right there is european open american the two big ones. Right arm and the bourbon your typical american brands are typically of. [39:16] What are there typically charge the charger like a vanilla smell or something. There is a vanilla smell of citrus lights up. Remind me about little bit of the story its probably a canadian salmon if the water up. [39:39] You can talk over. How's the chemical smells good lights in my brother's no don't stay at brothers right so what we have so, i feel like the very middle of the road it's cut up freely glen can feel the taste gone but stronger, yeah what's a good stronger the middle of focus also been cashed so i go back to cascade yes really three or four types of many types of therapies are always european american and american ems to have a little bit stronger with flavor. In the american ones are typically. Typically charge first of nigga with that bitch char taste up and started by electric cuz i had a fire and his bills cotton fire use them anyways i've found that the bourbon taste better. [40:32] That's my computer turn your family detect burning water in mine so um get them the next the next team is. Typically scotch barrels toasted not shard. Uh oh my jack daniels that actually goes to a charcoal filter ration to give it to make it smoother so what happens when u whiskey then a couple of things happen over time the longer it in, spirit character goes down so that no one is first distilled what that paper typically clear and has a greeny tasted really tasty though depending on what the hell is weather is corn wheat barley can i pay you, show the taste of that the serial taste goes down what spicy ness close up so flavors the spice girls up from the would i. What are the spices but not the good flavor the wood flavor itself goes down that disappears. [41:36] Then you get all of the other interesting things happening if he's oh. You think can you barrow be the way to go but some of the best catches in use barrels so things like the barrels order still turn barrows other wines and had a really nice cup of one of your favorite whiskey is the task that sweetness and also whiskey pics on the color i got more amber darker over time ugh some, the steelers watching and caramel the color the whiskey pic make it look a little bit older i would like a tad more time in the barrel. I'm doing you a favor here what are you doing. [42:17] I will take a good picture cake this one was an exception and i'll be posting me either one alright thank you so very blessed the friends are for but i gotta rob peter. So we can talk about the after party with my google phone i'll play another time. I feel like the same sun communities to oversee its northeast but what's up, details aboutdo from greece know but not like tickets to earlier fault the store yes i got the same thing as ten why we can't hear you can not talk like to get the black and oneplus seven rated does not charge and does, if you are the one after that like its like six hundred dollars to two thousand twelve hundred right where i can six hundred, the one plus six million nine hundred k was that much so this metro place to call dad tonight and getting who's there be no time bitch. [43:17] What is the actual difference between the two not bigger has a stylus so i do what small not that much break with out yet, something interesting about apple that she incorporating for nineteen our phones on us can u find thousand us out like the umm iphone, ask iphone something and the accident access i can schedule what can i say the galaxy yet yet will be around for a long time will four nights and got the last game of the world and won multiple awards got many things add new and video graphics card to you as god get free skin if i buy it so you can use your character in fortnight, how do you actually can you also grab some good about galaxy skate we all know that apple's not incorporated, end the sum the x box nigga switch it appears floors through robot whole new console just the skins alexa when we went down on that note so i said my goodbyes by three y. Take carrots good have this and i like this is a test i feel like it OK sebastian was scared ever had a sticker i just got all the rocks.

What weekday is ninety seven ish twenty seven th correct so. Let me connect when they ship and get one hundred seven that's right where we been we been gone for a long time and i would give me good excuses for that i will leave in everywhere man u on all the way to australia. I didn't know how many comments wearing himself out with his ACR is access control lists is broken. Are there a couple of death threats that i know of that no way. [0:53] And then why didn't is it christmas, look up the most recent get so you don't have a good excuse not that anyone looks like your squad know the only actually the only good excuse was that i was sad i been sick for business hard to talk yourself. [1:14] Okay umm plain colors we do it for you but so let's say enough providers details and the after party and move on with the show, the show must go on so i picked little bit uh housekeeping MVP summit march seventeen to twenty second, we'll be bringing robbie there will be there so when a lot of our listeners are the other, i had some work in redmond as well we got some microsoft staff where we to be there and black scotch, yes i would like whiskey cigarettes out adam will if you buy a drink with argyle shirt or something with that. Wow ok hey there we have people bringing bringing bottles out if it that if you tell them you gonna write out but ok ok if you tell me what if you don't we'll write on you because i write so we need to move on then we need a. [2:13] We need hey guys what about the word of the yes will need to order with david while the weak excuse are we had our excuse for not having the showing the vote to not so quick to have money i was exactly two months. Last episode of the sixth of december will there be rain today in the fifth of february so that was the weather like, that's so that i don't off the about the same so let's move on um when you hear the word we get to take a drinking favorite beverage, yes right and what the week again is david excuse is the only excuse excuse. [2:53] You can you can use anywhere you want really if there is no judging this competition you do not need an excuse lol we'll win. We all went ok so we got that, coming up with got new new story at the wee will this is news of jeremy dyson gone for so long what's the stuff but that is somewhat relevant that we wanted to chat about yes yes, so one of my excuses website was that she is what's the earliest date will it stand for what can i come in for CES great is nothing right the show but nothing i do not use the consumer electronic show and i do not want it to the things the time i think the worst of CS are actually, what month would roughly say as a consumer electronics okay, so you got some notes here i do not get to say about it i think that's the big thing everywhere was was all about the assistance google and. Amazon alexa contact adam dad he would be found. What was there but not really caring either available from her point of view and pretty much everything which means it instead of just having a sad switch on the wall you have a switch to microphone on the wall. Umm no service all these devices that people are making the internet of things and so on and so on to work with alexa and dot google and. [4:23] Yeah i mean alexa and google both do amazing audio pickup yes. [4:29] What does this mean all the companies that make something related to alexa and google are gonna make any sort of money whatsoever can i find the light of, alexa google amazon ecosystem gonna really continue along and they will make my debit card being car still be in. Charlotte sophie everywhere but this gonna be a lot of people think therefore it's just gonna be purpose whatever business idea they had not make it alexa or google device. And they're gonna make a whole lot of money and people are at CES seven thousand probably and yeah you look at the devices center site. [5:07] Let's just like the same device so hot like three bids over and over and over again i think everything's gonna start a podcast here rich. What can we start the podcast. Not it yesterday morning canada ok so right so now you have subtitle for CS what do you call it. What me to wear a mediocre ideas go to di if i broke what was that. [5:38] I don't know that's where i don't see my shout out here. Anyways ora si oui marcy a mediocre guys okay so the shots while i am in so many mediocre ideas there just look at things like that like i'm number one to them once. Yes you could go a charge card and a new contract the battery of the idea being that they would have free cellphone the idea being that you would be able to take your. What are your pocket charger cell phone and then drop it off gustaría these things around town the good that just drop this off at the other end of the year. Yeah the equation and not be stuck with the battery anymore sapere two dollars and and look at this business model it's like first of all i pay you can five to ten years cellphones actually last a long time my order its please sell two years. Well that's the idea when i will have non of you will be found with much better battery life within two years not everyone had one yet so five to ten years to get out of the system um, you can already buy a battery, there's already places all over the place that don't require you to have multiples of the meaning of a stalled the locker to put your cell phone in your cell phone from you half an hour will try and the other just so many ideas that would like access to or just. [6:58] Add an ok idea at any some my car cost to manufacture other is another one that reminds me of that one was just dumb. [7:06] Yeah firewalls people but thats not getting this one thing that that was out was, announces a demo at CES as we take a look up again and i forgot that was the near feel charging for charging your device without, begin contact list mode and never find them so it's kinda like charging but have a distance in there talking about measuring it in meters not inches so they could be across the room and still charge your device if u can answer but u can i wanna talk, alexa from here are threatening which way will we go yeah that's possible, that's to be great for the card things i gotta cup holders and whatnot to use drop your phone in a cup holder and feel the top of a task than the car itself right but they cannot touch the top of my desk on my laptop charge my cell phone charger. All right for the baby monitor. [7:57] And just for truck tops is a manager of a disadvantage of those charging box outside but it's for top and your case what you're talking about is it could be a regular charge and place you just leave it on the monitor, when entertainment finland are you doing ok was pushing the charging with a lil nervous, remember that anybody remember that describe probably does but anyways that coffee shops that had deduction charging mats, yeah i'm tables for people transfer from ikea made some lamps with that promise lol right so. [8:33] That's the weird stuff for the ideas go to die, do you have your tips from tending CS and surviving so if you can going to cs then it definitely should drive me nuts hundred thousand people there and ideally a hundred eighty thousand people didn't really seem overwhelmingly question, i want to las vegas typically has quarter million to half a million tourists that important i ignored other people that work in CA so that i think that was really minimum because, red sparrow permits food so basically i would i was i don't worry about people trying to get a hotel close by. Add to the venue centers venue so it's fairly easy to pick one that and then i think the key is did i go for all four days. My wife and i are there with a suite to every other life your second wife third wife second and third and so we. [9:33] We each worked so that it wont two days and it up going through that kind of been ok, each one reach one today's been six days but wife to find one like to find out so let's play mat get me after five so just took those david get married while he was in vegas that's where that re married, that's the third time for me but my wife says she'll never get married again so i did this without. Morning your right i'm really going four days in a row with just enough to see that's too much today. [10:08] Okay so many countries that interesting happen to a lot of conferences that have a show expo and things like that when there any ch boost and sleep are so kind of mellow time is it gonna make it because this show will add big companies are there because i can speak is weather app with another applicant closing deals or special cruise that anyone don't want the product showing off brandon brandon is because of gas, yeah what's the stars are gonna but that thereby different companies what they are done about that and if we get done no certain people really like shows with less than five thousand people in the same people come every year get to know people i get to the vendor or to get a speaker does not make a community a message when i go to regularly in vegas but that show is now gone and its been managing to ignite no everything yet to show what everything right all right let's move on then so had a good chat with the qualcomm, i think i was the only one that hey there call girls in laptops. [11:12] Okay play paul really know that i'm bilbo no qualcomm at all right cuz goodbyes idc what was the time will come actually made handsets. Hello, i don't off that i remember seeing one of verizon qualcomm answer your call i make a chief that's from for many many handsets still be like are my eyes and i make them oh terms and things like chips includes everything just stop not just the process but also with apple. Except for apple posso custa for apple pay to apple makes the next, they have their own version the app but they buy the modem so out of ass always interesting to me really. Do they really think with the newest version of the dark all contracts in the college that um cx cx cx they really think they have something that's as powerful as, environmental i found you know what most people, what we whatever triple the amount of battery life that you would be getting on netflix similar device um. [12:20] Aniston and all the other women and built-in and built-in cellular, please follow the same sock with all there it all runs longer or you can make your lights really light make it red the length of time, can you can pick up the surface of how that could really benefit from having a battery that did some other stuff is gold in colour like that guilt that i didn't take a circle with me just tell your and i was like to have it it struggled to do any video editing with crash the device it works really well is great for recording mix advice or talk about what crash the device when i was ready video recording of free video editing and just didn't have a will just. The software freezes up can handle it other than the software but that's to be expected on hello in japanese that i put the battery life is terrible right it was useless. It's i mean could you tell me a tablet is low powered test trouble doing video editing i got. Whatever it the battery doesn't last days and thats just not acceptable a valve is better i can get today. Actually yes i have monday of that works really well i'm not sure it has to do with them the wife thinking that that's an hour mode so it wasn't sinking onedrive all the time so i, need to do some experimenting with some battery time so that we can talk to the folks in redmond but it. [13:37] What happens when we go there lets do that OK what was the surface people let's do that if you visit the food nearby okay right so i so. Call come this year can i have a whole bunch of laptops and mobile when was about well maybe i want to try one but don't like them i know this is one of those things if it, material one and one hundred laptops is made with cauliflower right now we're just start somewhere right but if i was serving someone you can get a fourteen hour battery life in the laptop now, the summit can make it medium and laptop. I am beginning twenty hours of the day to people who care of you when is four hours will the phone does it mean to the really care whether it and intel weather in m. d. or weather for qualcomm inside not. [14:30] I'm looking at a base level of performance then looking at the battery life of storage things like that but the people in best buy sells them full of misinformation but. Forgot password, what's the closest recently of them and they said the favourite was because of, the big box stores like me big box or closest stores closing to help with that location of choice us to because i got the other location just. [15:04] Start the chain of one espresso the one that leaves still there i think i do not take long to a tag along to the other small toys are still for sure for sure by ok alright so was the worst of CS well. Adjust the worst i saw was these freaky little robot see you suppose to use to keep the kids entertained and we'll your kid to be raised by smart phone not by a robot. They're just like to give robots and i think that cost five ten grand a piece and they were supposed to teach you kid. Empathy should i need the chinese and japanese mostly at siena could read a book like a good read a physical block if if if you would put the book and every time it's like. Just like a real solution looking for problems well it's i think a lot of its just stuck, when will i be at the art of the possible not that the user can stream already but that get people thinking about the concept right yes yes yes i feel about another suitcases. So there's a variety of suitcases you can get there when was the album a suitcase would follow around ok and so for five hundred dollars that also suitcase from you like some kid comes in place with that. I meant for the battery replaced on the ship will you like like somebody like when does your silhouette and make sure where is bad but you know why. [16:32] Some kids gonna see it n teenager and mike gonna be the last to see if your robot i put the worst and suitcase is there with so it was a smart integrated suitcase scooter. [16:44] Recent concept me know what the app. Can you just push to the speed or is there a good detox that you can have your suitcase that's good with his case but yeah probably was what was called something like that but it was the grand us. [17:00] Yeah but what is the interesting one is going through security on to my flights either they asked if i had a smart suitcase and a what, and explain that to the sender you have to take the batteries out of your smart suitcase on my jacket so i can follow the codes and follow you on the plane because i feel like shit yeah but the luggage service, will you check you bag and yeah yeah so what u do jacket i don't know i'm there was anything there, add band of all screen sold space grey tablet that folding have to become a smartphone um what's today's ago and had this huge three hundred, square of three hundred thousand square inch screen window screen that the used in the stadium, no help bye rock video what does accompany me the one of the top of the dog yeah what's up and about skirts, don't let the band go to place like that it's better with me anyway ok so when do the screens but just like three times it looks like a prototype. I had a kind of what you can really see that. Maybe in ten years something like this might be practical because people have covers on the phone to gold and front but. It was softtek so heavy you got the weight of a tablet in your pocket with most people dont want. [18:26] Play something sounds like god i didn't get spot on the podcast again and nice talking to you turn table light never really had before you don't remember them is out. So what's a coffee at express mart of you possibly can in fact everybody got what is this so. [18:48] Goodnight the wild of a propaganda virus through someone's head phones that way anyways yes we're talking with turn tables hes got what is at one p. m. And the stones lp sign up at one but when i returned to the front of so get set up dinner to set up i don't know who did it wrong but you did it wrong somehow um if i really wrote anyways ugh, so I said why you no aside from the cost the inconvenience and of the person and the real estate requirements, oh great thriller movie ever set up your echo then put it on the distance from the speakers. Yo never bothered listen to music any other way, is it just like that but anyways i like turntable can i reset when there is no talk about turn tables what is the next thing i spend money and also you're talking about. [19:46] Ok so the fic troll a secret so, no never got so there is a massive head i swear fifty different models of record players telegram with the big horn got the side and some of them are modern, yes some of them are made to look like something from the nineteen twenties without was pretty cool. What was the funniest thing i've found out if they would often have a CD player in them and it's like. [20:19] What kind who has a CD player anywhere i can see how the records for see these contracts. Please just lost why bother with this is that some of us are feeling right now well um. Another note never nothing else right now as far as physically physical media is growing so i was surprised like really had a hundred different one switch against us to manufacture things i could hear um, and i really don't like three thousand square feet four thousand square feet and he was really paying attention and then nearby those polaroid. Yes but app is not florida yes but the rights to them yet okay and they have to have some tweaking some sound activation for taking these little snaps of things that seemed really really get to me in something that, human body with because i have wanted the other brand ones instead yeah but they cause someone an status like three boxes too hot or something like that so i discern the polar ride up so much but there is not a quite wrong with the polar is the perfect just fall who is swarm with people so okay. [21:35] What else. [21:39] Sorry but i think we can cover that's what i was told this is not CES related but lots of running reports how things like that in the big guys all had different ports in facebook apple and. Sales are down china stuff all sorts of things um microsoft. What was most interesting was amazon. Their latest annual filing they make it clear that i actually have a your line of business called a transportation logistics which basically means that competing with fedex UPS. Tell her we are up for the easter it is interesting because from fedex and ups amazon order be science. Ofcourse now someone to be competitive so. [22:33] When i go to amazon i order something niccas delivered by one of the partners or could be bothered than ever believe you are right now they are getting canada, sorry not a delivered by amazon directly or maybe of the first two hundred housewives in the last hundred miles wilson telecommunication. [22:52] I wonder if another business that you might not even realize i ordered from amazon but they are failing yeah. [22:58] I'm so i am delivery to know that i know that shoe company um cause of mark um and they got busier the website because of the website ranking driving in amazon transaction so um, is there stuff is all done through amazon fulfillment what do you want to return it to go back to the store to take it back can return it to amazon but would think about it from other countries besides amazon recently, it's kind of a add yeah so difficult so these companies have these little warehouse in like somewhere far from where we live where we left off i the warehouse far away, and then it takes like days to get to know takes even twenty four hours to get shipped when i just even the online ordering experience is a pain yeah. Yo um somebody cap the one up here can i call support check which is my canadian tire, i always before any sports weather for san diego on a boeing things um and i was australia i take a look at some sales and i want to buy my son some ski poles like what i'm saying. Put it so i have an account with them etc vacuum bought on line from before but i when i'm trying to order bulls. [24:12] Make a branch and the strangest failures i go through the transaction at the moment, i was happy you just give me a weird error message that meant nothing um it was something i just quit daycare and message and fight find call them, i thought about my cell phone cost wise australia. [24:34] Yes you can replace you send order to activate that can personally after party or to order directly cell phones so um call them to get confused, ok so let me see if she can figure out what was going on i've figured out what i am doing this from australia. I just thought for a second to do the check-out yeah if not can it would not let him the transaction will you tell me the price when you get all the way that i would like to have italian a vegan without a twenty five step process get this weird error message, right because i guess they're doing some kind of july location services, create an yellow which is kind of meaningless crude up and had to find out if i can get it shipped to australia, your home address yes they won't know is there any other cleaning credit card that is lost business waste of my time human lost the business centre. No are you listening and not by there either just ridiculous. So i um i didn't say that but i have any p and then returning it um. [25:49] Okay that's my budget for running anything else what's up with david. [25:54] Music.

Space i for sure. I know the step by this myself and how you doing so we have space in my favorites but this one is characteristic of more space is typically a caramel coffee and sweet hands. No no. [27:56] I have returned to the free if you drive i can speak with you can do the free if you don't try you better options so okay so it's a good space in color black that tony golden color. Caramel another friend got a bit of a smokey smell which is characteristic for these when did death but it keep calling me kathleen fl. [28:20] Chicago water effect but same color of smell did not like it. [28:29] What would that look for a black woman. The finish is small compete with another typical space is not bad in the winter jacket winter what's cannot dent not too strong as far is the earth like a little smoother. S plus but not space i like my calendar anything that is barren long time that make them look like they re startup or a think it hand written things like that the classic space is single month scotch whisky. Right but do they talk about the light we send multiple be read the okay back that is delicious forest fruits and creamy malt, i whisper of smoke lingering sherry notes. [29:19] So we need to do we do this with UK people a bit more on the whiskey and will start doing that more this year about some notes on that. What is the bedroom and its so. Newly released ten year old from gordon the bedroom and delivery so it's a first nine years in a bourbon and sherry tasks before him. What's that it's nice barley her be carefree degrassi. Bittersweet got the ginger dry sherry and i want to be like goodbye pie. [30:04] Blue shirt. [30:08] What is not super smooth like most basaites little bit more grit to it ya for sure. [30:17] Already, stop lot of things to talk about okay christmas dress christmas happened i want you write in australia i was so i left i left australia couple of days after our last episode, when i was gone for a little over three weeks and did lots of stuff there actually recorded whiskey the week of the boat and and sealing me a left on the surface before i reformat it. I didn't copy off and you didnt just having a default draft results in to the club i did not do that for a taxi, you have the audacity do that it's essentially a call if i'm out of hi now so it was a loss because i didn't do a record about a bot i vote all the other guys from melbourne to singapore australia people from all over the world, i don't really like the pasta around my best friend the bottle of the time i wish i could cut that photos of eric waited photos yes yeah is perfection through their loss the recording um sso australia so christmas funeral solat a funeral, yes my mother passed away asked here that we have but if you want it like damn she, should i want a lot of ways but my favorite story is that her last rent check bounced. [31:37] Should we get master last jackson, that was awesome yeah yeah he definitely tonight six to start back up and then run out of money that's a great way to do if you are in cuba when this happen right in summary to say it's okay your in-flight so how did you how did you find out, what i got a text message from people i don't normally get a text message from okay i knew i wasn't it was a. No i was in the wrong way okay but atlanta ok let me we need to return yes okay, so what actually happened and why you run away back ok so like you're gonna few days before nine ok francis my sister who passed away when i was in cuba another sister another time. [32:24] Are right house cuba what's good good the food was let's say but blender than usual which is unfortunate the same shit talking about uba yes there a few times myself and not mean by that um i think your sexy ass what we talked about um wedding in the wedding so much of my time right interesting have fun, yeah the father of the groom to snow to be quite a black man gets more so when he starts drinking and the code of the evening with some of the end of the evening he said that calling awesome mc body can't dance for a blip. [32:59] But and i have a serious issue i have a torn ACL still have an excuse for not doing it right and i do yours and theirs well um, my wife for her ACL skiing in a weekly right arm is falling down the stairs in the same AC also fifty fifty chance. Alter turn in my case i had surgery on that one before so, umm and any worse you said yourself you fell down the stairs that's, that's disappointing i know i just of your product you probably wouldn't that have a new design and build out the stairs is like oh yeah no i didn't some plumbing escape from tools, and then drop when i try to pick it up and next thing i know i can go downstairs so your gonna find out if you're skiing season start instance i want yes, if you could ski you can't do a lot more damage compared again, when will be a bolt holding me shit like that so right so what else would it take for the field of things to talk about more during the australia of myself get off the plane to the system. [34:10] Think about how much you pay for cellphone service here so i need a whole bunch of choices do we got the planning to go with vodafone. I don't like abba daddy or a optus is it artists, anyways i'm looking for a thirty five dollars australian which is about thirty two dollars canadian baby, show me thirty one dollars canadian doesnt matter i get an australian couple things one that included taxes but the price of the price but something okay or get on talk to other things about that so i talk for thirty five dollars just like this one i got, can you talk with nick so first off i'm limited, do not stray leah unlimited everything except calls text etc okay ima inbound international texts. Um International calling to like a hundred and eighty countries have five hundred minutes while ok hand. [35:17] Forty gigs of data limits just for one month is not well signed up for the one on this one, i hope not charge me and still up here so what's the forgiveness really forty you will seventeen gigs but they give you a twenty three gig bonus. If you keep renewing a twenty three gage stays back to using a laptop carries over i want that so yeah so extra but something get a struggle to use my favorites are the kids with me and everything i have wi-fi most places and whatnot but no struggling to use that seventeen days i got all that for thirty five bucks yeah. [35:58] What was no contract nothing i'm contacting cheaper than part of a lot of our phone bills this also that the phone you. Why are the magic to buy the phone but. The best from right here in a bit more yes so that was quite nice um yes i think i'm switching is trying not to be. Not typing no tax so things are looking more expensive than the cheaper tickets no tax on top of it, michelle to get the celtics so we get a living wage here can i find more but it is kinda silly restaurant and order the lobster and i want the chicken, right and you just twice the expense of my new duty shipping twice as much by the live at the very bottom what were the top of the percentage is and so um. Did they get the survey to working harder or human to figure out expenses expenses scott dresses cheap scotch right or even yeah so that's one piece of the other piece of it is um, what is the alarm people top attached so the government sites below are the taxes are included lesson and never do but rn taxes right now to take more because the taxes done up so um. [37:10] And just expect people and so you know its to insure a problem that sweet text and for that really but he grand you give me shitty service reddit app, that's that's where we rarely do you adjust temp based on that service and still isn't what is my job to manage your restaurant you're the manager of the order of the restaurant's insurer and getting good service, bake the price of the goods service interior of kentucky into the price i pay it as part of the deal coming out. Makes so much sense anyone to talk to me in services yet i don't we do that just crazy enough words in the us because everyone have a tip jar out. Right everyone you determine the cabbie everybody's expecting a tab, can i see someone's bills is not bad but still your new york everybody yo the dry cleaner the air bartender year. Add for whatever and i don't know what i'd do you find me a way to add dry cleaner new york. Ok so there is a little bit sad. [38:20] What in the us in general right not greg people making money but the way to structure such that that's how they have to are leaving the us they had sold my work and made up but, just seems team strange because the order is a very strange system where does houston to it take it for granted but still very very strange right. True true so you like that, i have filled in the tax is a good hangout i can you go when you go to your whatever here you would never think of just calculate how much the bill is for something you had something złotych some things i can tag else. What is the start you have sent packets of high tax on alcohol high taxes on sugar. Should we not no no i'm not falling out in both and this country and now they're doing what sugar text from taxes and things like that and that thing feeling really effecting your sales. When i want a tax write red to my contacts it's not the whole planet fitness not give you ninety percent buyback yeah salinas salinas. Alright so what else can we talk when you got married idk about that joyful never get married again same error again right excited when i went to nm c the wedding with new years and there was a do for new years. [39:44] We went to have for dinner and we wanted to france place where invited us skiing and we just weird just back from australia are young enough to go skiing can i know ugh. Select solar excuses to talk more but australia in the future will that supervisor made where can i go skiing on the way to seattle not now it's not good makes it easier yeah so we were all in on this saturday night. Set my pc pre conference stuff for beards. Why am organizing open size of average consumption of car fit in all the annual cabin party we working on that. Reduce what we talked about the on the shelf. I don't know i think that was about yet stock market picks in the stock market picks yeah anything i can buy more of it. Tell me the price go up for long-term even call me lol so the big thing and talking about next and we haven't seen of heard any reports from the cannabis producers yep. Another for shortages i think that's potentially good for the good for the stocks other building more. Pass the big things on my next years would have become so used to failure by that same time not so. [41:03] I'm good yeah the wrong word here but in the us where do have legal marijuana yeah um vs canada is mandatory yes. [41:15] People that are hating on lamp but not regular drug users a regular cannabis user. Just want to enjoy recreational on occasion um. I think i'll name the same with some people enjoy a glass of wine every now and then but they don't have it with me a lot and alex i guess red hub. [41:36] They typically don't like to smoke it turn off the like this there's yo is there school. Beverages their animals all about in and the rationale is that the smoke is it bad for your lunch which is, well it's also a painter secret what your phone regular spot for you to smell cigarette simple don't like the smell of it something in there. So out really great pizza sticks around for long time so that's how many kids around, what's the next big wave of edible gummy legal academy so they all have deals with valuable, canopy has to deal with constellation brands has a deal with them i also got trust your heart rate as a deal where if i cant my bedroom now ugh stop the water department of vancouver so yeah that there and then you'll talk about bitcoin. Oh that article about this one bitcoin is exchange your hold our guests bitcoin wallet of some sort what's the exchange place will you exchange if they have wallet so canadian bitcoin exchange which to call her remember bc they'll eight via. [42:55] Talked about themselves as one of the premier bitcoin exchanges and largest in the world that is one guy that basement right i need i just placed an order some of his parents basement is married does one spouse has a job. The three hundred million dollars with bitcoin or silver cotton died in india. [43:20] Due to complications of currency switch off bed hit a chevron has password somewhere yeah hello adam hello.

[0:29] I have barely barely barely use Windows 95 now for me it's cuz I skipped it because they weren't a life then. Yeah right and t351 those are all great operating systems 95 was just, I used to but at work I used at the 4 I'm going to stop at home so episode 95, birthday that's true that's true i birthday to me happy where the kb view birthday gift what did you get up that later i well so it's a liquid. I don't know it's cold out so welcome to episode 95 David's birthday episode, Peterson Wellness podcast hosted by us the surface mask so we can say that over and over a few times because we don't have a lot of content today while it's cuz everyone else was, not working on American Thanksgiving okay well there's a few little things we need to do David hey guys what about the word of the week, yeah alright so lots of birthday stuff going on so for those of you don't know where the week is a drinking game, every time you hear the word of the week you could take a drink at sometimes we toy with you by not saying the word of the week will actually just forget. [1:49] Either get really hydrated or really dehydrate depending what you drinking. Works for us so I don't have a drink in front of me so we're going to have to fix that I had a coffee but it's not alright so let's move on what else is there David what's coming up espresso machine in his office are recording studio so. That is quite the upgrade to the studio that's the hack of the week. Is it now though Act of the week is what so we don't have soundtrack of the week so I just kind of stumbled onto this. Microsoft uses to take picture of you when you log on with Windows hello is not the same camera used to take a picture of you for. [2:33] Kind of seems obvious but doesn't really this seem too much of a point to it but what the point is is you can actually just cover up the visual camera, leaving the login camera there and you can still enjoy Windows hello, Muller's Kelly the new episode the new series they didn't speak in the computers versus attack in the. Not into that one video that they've math so neighborhood here where they've got it intersection Mulder and Scully streets in Ottawa is there a yes wow we should do a live on the spot there so tape on the camera already full of article about it but I just happened to notice it by chance on my Surface go and then I just tried it on my Surface laptop and you can just put a small piece of tape there and Minnie Surface Book, book i'm sorry will a cut piece of skull six laptop office cuz that once are fucked up and then you have the pleasure of walking on use lean quickly and people can't be a stupid on you as easily alright so for those of you who don't know how hello works it uses infrared camera and the regular camera is not infrared it is a. [3:49] You'll spectra camera right because things that we want humans to see but it needs the infrared in order to do things like differentiate between you and a photograph of you or differentiate between, closer than trying to take a picture of the column over here and I just noticed that the mixing board would make a good picture all right and so, if use the infrared camera to actually look at the heat pattern from your face and eyes and things like that that you are, life in florida right and also you can tell the difference between. It definitely does a whole lot of stuff that you can't just do it the visual can't but I always assume that it used to be chill Cameron to. That man works at night you can you can actually just be in that it without without my flight, okay so what's next David I wanted to talk about some general. Christmas buying tips Christmas buying tips okay I'm not up for what for buying a laptop a lot of people buy a laptop at this time of year really people do. And just a lot of common mistakes of people with laptops I like the background music there wow wow I hope it doesn't mess up our voice. [5:02] Laptop buying tips. [5:10] Friday all that's herself people are buying a lot of this Hardware so I think the most important thing you can do is make sure you get no matter what you're doing with your life. Or a computer fan try to get at least 8 gigs if you're buying a Windows laptop by an Android phone that was my downside of the phone I bought, if your with your phone to a strip by the most memory you can well within reason for eight reasonable for a is reasonable for device that is just a consumption device for what work. You know when two or three years from now you will not feature prove it you want where is. It kicks you probably will I have a seven-year-old i7 with 8 gigs of RAM and it still works pretty well because it was. SSD what about so you've got here you don't have to give. This goes really that important the most important fast, having a huge amount of disc is not usually important if you fast and 128th I think is what most people need because of putting their data into the cloud. Minimum. [6:24] I have a terabyte I'm usually around 300 gigs is roughly where I am a half a terabyte give me some breathing room. Big I need to do temporarily and then have a heavy user than most. [6:39] You want this more just make sure you have a nice SD slots available to add additional memory should you need it temporarily. [6:52] Gonna airplane then yeah you could put in a slot there and sst. And I already called it SD card and you get out a bit of memory with some movies on it, okay instead of walking down your regular memory and then what I've done as well is Ibis, but Friday I bought a bunch of SanDisk Ultra extreme a super Alpha, who was the car that's okay for my go pro and other things i don't like we all slack check that there really aren't they there hundred twenty five dollars each of them for twenty nine bucks each oh really hundred twenty gig in the fastest a us and this makes in so that's good for that kinda stuff so that would be perfect to any in your phone if it's not made by Apple or a tablet if it's not made for apple or a laptop if it's. Not made by Apple I guess okay so disc so yes you definitely do not want if you want to get an SSD if possible as much as possible and, slower and things like that if so size i think that really is a personal preference it is you want to depend on whether to consumption device or whether it's a creation device I find it easier create on a larger device them to consume but my eyes are bad to sometimes like a bigger screen but the, I can adjust if I need to lease at least feel a type on the keyboard things like that like I have a 13 inch laptop and I'm much more productive on it than us a smaller laptop of course. [8:21] I mean what they're both good, thought but the balancing act too small not productive but if you're not going to be using for creation all that often you might be a little smaller lighter The Balancing Act the other thing I would suggest is too big, can be bad if it's a portable because it's hard to carry use a lot of power things like that. You're right the tablet like the be at the surface go or regular surface or you know the various Apple tablets that you really can carry around with you all day and not notices there, I told you the last thing I wanted was his price but I think it's two other things you've asked what if I messed and I think they'd let me put in the show not since we type I think they directly impact the price okay. Processor processor sure and the other one is. [9:17] Wouldn't it already have a touchless Dell laptop so that touch screens, name one major manufacturer Apple. It's there as a lasagne less of the the dial in hp's there two or three years ago they definitely have some okay somebody thoughts on top should have touch. [9:37] Again I think I should have thought so I think you should you don't necessarily have to use touch as a primary input method to occasionally use in front of you. [9:48] Get, all things being equal that not if if you have the option for touch with a lot of extra cost do it gas work they give you a lap top that doesn't have such on it and its well that's with this but here's the thing there now monitors that have touch true and so you can actually touch sensor connected to your laptop if you only touch at work and you don't really need touch when you're, when you're not at work then you got that option but touches something to consider a lot of people don't consider that in their laptop choices and then the other one processor and, a lot of options on processor between manufactures right it is Intel stock of all sorts of processors and it's very difficult to keep track of which processor is faster than which which one you should get they've got so there are some I Pfizer Fashions on my sevens there are where did the name of the quad core vs dual-core number of cores processor is probably the most difficult thing to make a make a set of choice are you having any you go to the store and of course it's not loaded with all the crap that you'll eventually end up on and it's gonna be fast but so years from now and then there's all the multi vendor this there's an empty there's, bucket of Cyrax anymore or any of those other parties but the but the is AMD and Intel of the big players then you got arm devices I was at Staples yesterday and I always walk by and check out the laptops and they had this. [11:14] Screaming deal on it was a seventeen it's laptop. [11:19] And how to like a i get a terabyte ss d was more like sixteen gigs of memory cuz because nobody wanted to pay, how much was it it was like seven $99 Canadian I don't know, but that but it was just like this huge thing it was just like like as long as you never tuck it anywhere I mean see if he's like she thought about the battery is really just that UPS in case your power goes out for 5, it would it would be a beautiful thing to have at your desk and you know why I could make sense nowadays is because what. [11:51] All your cloud storage in your settings be in the cloud and such, you really don't need to take your computer with you that much cuz you go home and if you have your other computer hooked up your MSA or your tablet or whatever, you're getting almost everything there anyway so maybe it doesn't make sense have a 17-inch Brosius shocked by the size of this thing around your house, bright and not take it places and not travel with it then 50 minutes left I want to start or even 79 right. But if you're going to use it a lot you might need to you might need to have a spoon that's somewhat stationary and one that's a little more portable and you're not have much more experience with surface devices but apple and other high-end manufacturers if your vinyl. Let's say $1,000 laptop or above its there's a good chance it's going to last four five six seven years is going to last quite a while so maybe you buy one now and you buy a tablet in a few years, I know I'll turn it back and forth when you refresh them so here's the other thing that we didn't cover What GPU yes, so my kids. [13:04] Fickle processing unit for graphics processing unit so if your mining that point of course or are you doing any kind of three d graphics finder to the fair watching movies are there is a telegraph you don't need don't need a GPU you know why you know that look at your little Fire TV stick it probably, never has nothing as far as the processor going to be able to keep up if you're going to be doing anything, math intensive or are you going to be doing it any three d graphics say kids are playing i don't know. [13:36] Pubg or. [13:40] Fortnite or anything like that it's definitely better than GPS but my kids love grabbing. The Surface Book there is an option for an external GPU and then look into that I don't know how good they are not depends on the connection you have to USBC obviously, right but you could have a FireWire keep you hooked up your gaming Monitor and then have that hooked up your laptop disconnected take laptop and it's catchy PCS behind yes. Right so there's that option so memory size. [14:12] Processor touch portability about goes hand-in-hand with size. Repeat the last one is price price I think if you if you spend over $1,000 these days you're going to get a vintage made in American, the american, call the fence cuz you pay extra for certain brands are the few others that you pay a premium for. [14:41] And then even with inline between HP and Dell so I know those very much there they have their cheaper lines right so you have to understand the lights on the Dell Inspiron which is really a home user, consumer model and the latitude which is the business model and here's my advice. Buy as much computer as you can afford don't because you'll be future-proofing, and look at things like processor or hard to upgrade after the fact memory and disk can be upgraded after the fact you screw up my memory probably not find out, some usually not well if you're if it depends if you punch a button if you like if your buying one with for you could probably a pretty to eight, you may have to throw your old memory away but you can still upgrade it down the road so if you need to save a little bit of money buy a faster processor with less memory now and get more memory later or smaller discbound it again another diss later those are all things you can upgrade can't really change your screen size you can't really add touch and is very thin you can't really change your processor, at or GPU so those biological in egpu so those are the things to think about if he's making trade awesome price so, don't buy the least computer you can get away with because you'll very very soon outgrow it because developers are developing applications on the next bill for the next generation of hardware and new applications will not run well on that. [16:05] Anything else to talk about let's move on to the to the what. To the new story of the week. Thanksgiving so that will happen but something very very exciting happen today to dry up today is what day date today is david birthday whenever there is a csf it's november twenty six david's birthday so it's a birthday few times now yes. [16:40] Microsoft overtook Apple to be the world's most valuable company for a few hours, you look at my Microsoft right then pulled back Ashley Microsoft stock is down from where it was about a month month ago it's wet it's raining at 106 Powell Street it over 110 month-and-a-half ago however, alexis stock is down over its it all time high what happened, apples pulled back Amazon is pulled back and so right now those three are going to be in Google and pull back a little bit Microsoft pull back glass. It's like the old joke you know how do you how do you how do you outrun a bear or something I don't know. [17:39] Billion dollars has roughly where they were in those details in there now Google went up because I bought a new phone, yes a little bit later so that was my new story make me happy I got to Microsoft stock good good and Elon Musk, I assume everyone who listen to a podcast know who she is. And since you went to school very close to here then now we have to keep track of every once in awhile percent chance. It's he'll move to Mars me as his favorite type of chocolate bar he will move to the to the. To the planet Mars cuz nobody knows I'm tractor who wouldn't would would what you go tomorrow if that's. Is it a one-way trip it's a two-way trip even as a one-way trip it's quite a commitment. I need to know more about it but how how long we talked about 5 years return trip with us something right it would have to be several years, so let's say 5 years things like that that's what people used to do with boiled we are we are. So just interesting. [18:58] Couple hundred thousand dollars in what he says. Okay, I thought that was going to be going to into the right into the red Center of us realize what they call it the deserts call the red Center wear the lularoe which weeds call Ayers Rock and, will you still did call it people know that when I say I say lularoe they say cousin tight guess I'm going to. [19:37] Alright is that it for news that is all. [19:41] Music. [19:50] Alright we don't defend boxing music on boxing music you want to leave like Rocky music or something. So we're leaving today I've got you are going to open up hold up hold up on you get the on the camera I bought a dumpster fire so yes this is the phone give me a second here to start the camera. [20:11] Okay here we are not life with Collins new pixel 3XL and I'm not sure, he bought it just cuz Paul Trot called it a dumpster fire well that was a great it's cold here dumpster fire is nice and warm outside in the alley behind the building when you're outside cold who wouldn't want a dumpster fire I ate I don't know or was it is that American bad thing in Canada it's a good thing yeah s*** in the stick that's bad everywhere we can say that. We we can have a quitter well but rather how to stick that on my hand through the route to open up to a salon at the kit let's pull out the we can share this with illegal weapon the theme pics that the team pixel will do that so. First off it's got myself I don't even need the knife it's got a little tab to pull but let me ask if I don't have nail so there we go it's like on when you're opening up a video game or those DVDs years ago a little little piece there to pull up a little tab there to pull up. I just don't have nails to get under it so. There we go you guys at work that are trying to buy my old iPhone from me. Take a look at that it's all nicely. [21:29] Packaged least that's what we say. Can unwrap it so let's see how about sideways what do you mean, I can't compare to your phone cuz you're recording with it good point, size-wise it's almost the same size as a little narrower but it's got a bigger screen up at you yeah I was going to say that and it's got, the world biggest notch or does it turn it on. [22:09] That's really what size of a notch on it oh my God what the fork and. [22:18] You said you created another account just for this so couple of things for those of you that are considered drunk. Alright english united states start connect to mobile network what so, start Sim free setup instead okay so why did you choose this phone so I was looking at Apple and I got a 64 gig Apple iPhone 6s plus right, I wanted a little bit more memory right okay and if I wanted to get one of the new iPhones I got to jump up the intro. Point is 64 gig at the bottom and then want that next up is 256 gigs that really up the price when I put everything all in eyes looking over two grand. [23:16] Saying sorry, how you didn't see that I didn't get the Google car so but it still it was it was pretty close to Grand now the issue of the other issue is I want the best camera possible for my truck and hold on how much would this be, and keep locking up i got the black friday deal on it i got it for will be plus the bill, the plot the bill keep talking okay fuck you talking about mia you said you to be careful of did you get a case for yet i didn't home. It's going to start. [23:57] And so like to know Skip that here's our Wi-Fi networks. It's test but forgot the password give my google store i like the feel of it so i gotta print reader incense in the back. [24:16] So it was. [24:21] Yeah I had a discount on it $250 cuz I didn't find somebody that wanted to go with the flow you didn't give the two for two same thing right almost think they look up in 10 dollars difference so, I'll take a look at that so I ended up getting it for my total with tax $1,140.17. So I got it for under a thousand bucks Canadian so that's about 700 you bought it because you think the camera is amazing, best camera out there my second choice was the OnePlus 60 but it's not waterproof that's one of the things on it and then the cameras not as good so this was waterproof, and. [25:06] Has the best camera foul is four gigs of ram which i think is a bit of a problem but i think of puppy live with it and how much i starch that two hundred twenty eight gig that's the top end this that but i'm limited google. Dry storage plus you can add your own nest no he can't there's no MicroSD no not on the waterproof ones. But really there is on my camera considering switching phones, you install Google Drive on your phone and that's my case 900s and then you backup your phone to Google Drive is map for it and I hope your phone your contacts your photos your calendar right, and you enable this new phone. You I would have to turn off turn off iMessage by the way because it'll happen is when people try to contact you you like to My Cry message wife we are Google phone, your Android phone Bella work do I won't work too well say turn all that off before you migrate over from somebody backup your phone. Put your sim into the new phone and code so google drive again i think i should probably already installed on it too quickly and just restore from backup, awesome and you're good to go so let's see what you think about this after your trip before my trip I've got 15 days since I left it so before each other thing now anybody wants lightning cables I can have a whole lot of those. [26:29] So it comes with that comes with a couple of things here it comes with earbuds. What's will go to cinema connector or do you have to use the it comes with your butts that worked out of the us pc usb c yeah and also comes with this little, so that's the year but so usb c but this load after let's new headphones lowry having love, or microphones or whatever yeah yeah that would be like okay and course a usb cable so but that's a usb c to usb c cable, the connector that okay see his or her falls in a better than that it's the other connector here to for ge to charge so here's a pro tip cold on this doesn't help. How does that help me charge it I want here's a pro tip don't get onto a long flight, without the right cables yes so I will be buying some cables today on Cyber Monday I'm going to wrap up this video so all right and then we'll wrap up the audio podcast in just a moment right cuz we've got the the after-party to get to yes. Well that was interesting in it i don't we should a done. [27:40] I wouldn't have heard it on the camera anyway that's that's true yeah. So there we are we done are we going to do a whiskey tasting I guess we have a couple and we should at least say goodbye. [28:02] Music. [28:09] Christmas podcast follow the show on Twitter that Smith email the show at podcast.com check out the show notes and leave a comment on www. [28:24] Help others find out about the show by leaving a review on iTunes. [28:27] Music. [28:37] So this is the after party his birthday party gilroy. A couple things about the phone my text messages to do that and we were talking about Pimm's. Not the stuff from England that you mix with liquor personal information manager so most modern phones Android and. I give you a bottle of redbreast single pot still Irish whiskey aged 12 years. He knows masters engineering metallurgy and things like that we've talked about building still next summer. [29:28] So it's really i've two questions is it legal. What's the second question when the next summer where can i hook is a funeral nowadays posse legal there's no thrill. Hurry up so this red dress is supposed to be pretty good now it's difficult if you have multiple information sources multiple contacts and things like that so now the phones. Close to my heart. [30:01] Are you go look at that nice. Alright okay the phone phone. [30:22] Okay. [30:24] So the red dress the beautiful balance single pot still irish whiskey with a warm generous texture rich sweet flavor spicy kick. [30:33] Love you many connoisseurs the Fireside Irish whiskey available and that's why I bought it for you. [30:41] It also comes in a cast but I don't know how I didn't know how to dilute it so perfect fall weather whiskey. Really very fruity hiking with dave this tastes like a dumpster fire spells path. I'm surprised your phone hasn't hasn't burst into flames actually spilled it on the iPhone not on the last generation that was not waterproof. [31:10] Alright thanks. I broke the camera wants by pouring by 4 and the Keith's Brewery in the Halifax I spilled a beer on it. But not too much beer I save most nahmir. So I like this hotel nice warm start in a spicy pepper finish the color not too sweet. Yeah because when you going to call on your caller ID where's it going to look at 20-20 different contact managers on the phone where they going to look at it in the file that this floor of a text comes in I wasn't too big. [31:56] Apps on your phone that have to use the OS his pimp your text messaging, and your phone calls that's on the phone app and the and the SMS app so I have an app on my phone that when I get a call it pops up with. Basic information from phone book including whether they're telemarketer and I've configured it when it's the telemarketers to go straight to voicemail. But that's okay okay last five years accessing the data accessing your penalty right who or or or training, inside car mode it's it's running as well as the pimp and its release reading other information the Apache is Google only has this is the Google Voice Assistant where it'll actually act as a person or set so it's somebody's not in your contact list it'll answer the phone and ask them questions and they still have the answer it'll either that's good let them come or not, just the us but still looking forward to that yeah. I will wrap them like really rude questions and things like that if you can tell Margaret so can you go for the telemarketers what the last time you had a bowel movement. I think like that yeah yeah. [33:19] Off up early but its years that it's it's it's also my google phones birthday will they korea. [33:28] Alright so spill. Sure okay guys were smart enough to kill ourselves haven't cut myself yet doesn't mean I won't do it again okay so you have Heat playing a boiler when you have a spiral cop and a copper wire come out the top dude. Two it will evaporated anaconda dinner so it's it's a boiler in of operator to consider right that's it okay if. If ancient Irish could do it with the internet. You got all access the right people got like Breaking Bad here we won't sell it. [34:24] For those that want to live on the edge since now that marijuana is legal in Canada what do you do for Thrills cuz nobody. You're not allowed to smoke anymore basically so, yeah that's awesome that's awesome I talked about this before so hopefully I'll have Brad Sam's on next week to Jack about his book and with any luck we'll be able to get a copy of the book ahead of. Say good things about it cuz it's it's about surface that needs the surface how could it possibly not. Be cut I will have to say that I think it's a dumpster fire and when he gets upset because it candidate that's a good term yes. Whiskey so. Dumpster fire I love that that's great sara americans a few minutes we let go from, your smart people are coming in with the this is real or if she really wants to move the code to get away from drugs are a smart. [35:53] What let's wrap aptos, we should what would be the proper number of people to finish a bottle every podcast 2, well we wanna fish quick know about that i guess what everyone have like one or two glasses so as of this is a must and we get a twenty after forty ounces so which one is this an twenty this is the twenty. Social 20oz and people. That's how many ounces in a milliliter. Okay so 7 50/30 1525. Okay this is twenty five single shots and they're so. [36:50] Talking to drunk five shots by people for people that's okay. Not really the driving range but 5 and less than 10 fighting around. Can i deduct a porpoise but it's okay milam the role either so six alright. Cuz I thought you like this I wanted to get some little different high quality, hard to find good whiskey Street this is not a cheap whiskey by the way but it's less expensive than some of the Whiskey's I typically like to the roof price wise. Yeah yeah you need to have a everyday whiskey might be the. [37:41] This is about to talk to Everyday whiskeys that idea which are 3-1 I still drink the northern Harvest. I like what I see a lot of times I have any whiskeys are pretty but then I've got Jim Beam in the summer. Address for that ice Jim Beam for cheap not bad and I like Wiser's Deluxe. [38:10] Else like really like i don't know if it has the app and that's where bottle there yet and i like a lot forty those are all forty always he's unit under forty dollars are all very good in canada and can we tax the. Over our lives so those might that do i just mowed the lawn whiskey kinda thing in yeah because i cant live without with dividing your of resentment fingers and toes. But yeah then the higher and stuff at the space I'd pretty much for. A little bit nicer. But not nicer different very good Canadian whiskeys are evolved the what was whiskey I like the taste of the Breton one we had the other day. Alright Oh Canada Dry I could have done well with a maybe a Sherry Cask or something that would be nicer, that's really good we could do to make your first batch then you can start working at next relaxer yeah kind of barrel of oil barrel, well so cheap and cannot seven bucks a barrel so i want to buy the one by the wall by the seven bucks a barrel, for the barrel gas is so cheap barrels are expensive. [39:37] Have I missed something here but no no I got it I got to go buy a barrel of oil and I get disappointment complain when I don't got two barrels so the ombudsman the French and then completed the franchise ombudsman, I want are you alright I think that's it we pretty much done we are. [40:00] By keep your stick on the ice in your scotch on the rocks happy birthday Dave happy birthday day.

Before we do that we've got some housekeeping hey guys what about the word of the week. [1:10] Blue that are guest choose the where the week and or do i use the word sure why not let's pick considering we've got a lot of snow outside and it's a little bit before christmas let's pick al's call Zoe use that word a lot normally are podcast so that should work out well I'm sure we'll be able to work that in it Peter you're a long time listener friend of the show we've talked about you before you've been on the show before you. [1:37] You stay in touch so your Alpha superfan, well thank you very much yeah i try and listen you guys and i get some some inside information about where microsoft is going where they from the little bit of where they come from and some deep insights of some cool information that I wouldn't get out on out on the the internet on blogs or an in trade rags and stuff like that. It did I see you you do not have a Windows phone, so i figure the loss of a three of us to give up on yeah that was a sore point i was doing some windows phone development there for a little while and i love the phone and lives in a paid for one of your apps, yes thank you very much i camera what was that was the but yeah remember when Windows Phone Directory made by Nokia in Finland. Set the receipt with the finnish national costume look like no now you should google that are being that. Cuz it really looks like what else would wear it really does oh I see I see. [3:02] Lottery for the week whenever we say the week you can take a drink of your favorite beverage. If you're driving and if the officer pulls you over you can tell if you heard the word the weekend you had to. I'll call the police officer and elf they don't like that very much okay that's not that's true and alright so we're gonna do, go on at the show and I will come back to some of the stuff that you wanted to talk about specifically I feel free to jump in anytime if we're talking gives a hand signal whenever jump in lots to talk about we're going to great start with our typical. [3:41] Cysts you story of the week on the history of the and we called it just so we don't have a super long episode think we're going to start with David doing to start with v. Surface news will Microsoft to new versions of the surface go one is the LTE version and. Priest self-explanatory it comes with a healthy and also come with those in a sixty is it a four gig at eight gig memory is it is it is a smaller one which is odd yeah so it's not that is a yet by getting out to eat have to get something else up if you were looking for the full spec apparently and then they brought up one that they originally were selling just at Costco but now it's kind of a hybrid between the low end in the high-end so it has, 4 gigs of memory at but has a faster processor I think in the faster disk space and 128. So anyhow I kind of. [4:46] That what they should if it is one of the dis a battery and but anyhow well i thought the battery so much has the combination of battery, and until process about the battery it's so much better than what it was made by elves they would probably work better. Well the hand thing you get used to but the battery only lasts him I'd say 2 hours most so really who hours. Has us pc and has microsoft on the cake but so that, that later on what I'm going to buy and maybe that's going to convince me not as far as you're concerned. I should buy it it's definitely you know what I'd rather by anyways before we live on. [5:38] Over was full of issues for microsoft release seeing. Nine or the fall release of windows ten, kind of issues they pulled it back and release of the play back well guess what they've re released again it's available in the wild but it still pro can. So again I think for Microsoft that's a, six at so eighty nine and icloud do not play nice map drives are broken in md processors have issues trend micro anti malware has issues still all kinds of issues and eighteen o nine at even though Microsoft that there's going to be some quality. Updates for you think about that Peter when I'm doing my normal day-to-day stuff at work or if I'm playing around at home, I just really using visual studio and Chrome, and it's for the most part it seems to be okay but I guess the situations that you've brought up with regards to specific Cloud scenarios or specific CPUs, thank, at work and at home and it seems to be working pretty fine for me I thought that's what the flighting was doing and that's what the controlled-release Cycles were doing based on the Insiders. [7:02] Field testing I'm so maybe the inside is not doing their job so they should be fired unrelated news Dona sarkar is. [7:11] It is a focus at Focus APA Cosmopolitan magazine article okay there we go. A little bit of Safeway we talked about this earlier windows on arm update lots of news in the windows on arm plus space first off, chris off the is supporting native apps for your visual studio user there's now an ability to compiled directly for windows ten on arm. Don't have to use the emulation, how is just for store apps this is for sixteen gb thirty two bit or sixty four bit apps well that's really good question we should take a look at that but, I read the article I couldn't figure it out so I figured that the armpits are 64-bit they are it's just the emulation is 32 bit. [8:01] I ever win thirty two apps so does that mean that the apps are gonna run slower on a sixty four bit. Machine which apps any of the 32-bit apps. Yeah so yes they will definitely stop to say what happens when you virtualize a nap and I'm elated that probably doesn't run quick yeah but how do you how do you bench Market because you're running on Hardware was never designed to run on, you know what I was wondering about the surface cup its performance is fine. And this is not the most powerful computer in the world that's right right so I'm just saying that. We don't really need a whole lot of power I mean yeah so some app run slower if you can rent underarm but you know you're ready. So if you need that much power the chances are you're gonna be getting visual by some healthy right last house list list quickly you're right now we're talking about were talking about was and i'm talking about the snap dragon he thirty five make forty fives. Sony 850 sorry 835 850s the 1000 coming at least or chips that run a 2.9 gigahertz other fairly quick or multi-core. [9:12] But how do you bench a Teddy to a fair Benchmark between an app running on arm versus an app running on arm emulated I don't think versus until proc I don't think it's a fair comparison it's just it's a convenient it's not why you should be running that app if you need to live in that up all the time it's at a transitional phase as your getting rid of a legacy app so what's going on in windows are native apps in Chrome so Google and Microsoft are working on a native Chrome browser for windows on arm. [9:44] Two new devices one from Lenovo one from Samsung. And December 2nd for the Samsung and not sure when the Lenovo shipping but these are running the latest 8:50. [9:57] Which is got a lot more power a lot more speed the original Windows alarm devices. They were slow even then like playing with him for 5 minutes every around anymore. [10:13] The white with you of this lottery designer and in what i understood but the way in the first round of the of the surfaces oh you mean like the original surface without with the arm checked with the actor that didn't really work out there and then mop and then he bought Nokia which runs on arm so yeah an hour to bring it back the first one i love mine i had when i saw her and and and it was it was absolutely one of my apps the bad the battery life on them was incredibly the apps it was the store apps, I couldn't install stuff okay that's a confused I was actually in a Microsoft store right doing doing a demo was confused and people come in, our tv i can't install this i cancel like nine so i may say well that you but windows are teak this app oneself the customers that didn't understand i think i'm windows of a lease they weren't doing a good enough job of marketing that of getting people to understand all, explain that my kids got it first got it and this is just one of those things okay, I'm buying an iPad equivalent I've got the increase battery life I've got the instant on these are wonderful thing average consumer thinks by the Windows device. They don't understand the different versions of thought they were getting a laptop that they could just decide on everything they want. [11:36] Yeah and so things that you should be able to run. You couldn't and they were just confused but let's move on, the new devices from 101 Samsung so maybe I should look at one of those but here's the problem member we said 1809 is broken so, villanova on samsung devices to both shipping with windows ten eighteen or three. The to mail ship with the surface scope to shift with eighteen of three understood welsh but the surface will ship in the summer. Is a shipping in happen of embers of this problem and you know three was never certified to stop dragging eight fifty. Microsoft never tested it but they never certified it so it was certified as a Snapdragon 835. [12:19] So they're running an OS I was never tested on the hardware. So that's a bit of a pickle for them isn't it it is so there when you open this up under Christmas tree on Christmas morning the first thing it's going to want to do is doing update on you. There's there's an interesting user experience that's going to happen no matter what what you buy even even Apple and Android never updates but I guess that's a no. They certified in for that one device on 1803. [12:54] And so anyways so it's still the thought this. All windows ten is broken thing is is really biting. [13:03] Maybe they need elves doing software testing. Well they might have smaller issues alright so what was that movie where. [13:17] Bob Newhart was an elf. [13:20] It's not elf. Is there dams. Okay alright. [13:39] On to Microsoft doing more to get away from passwords. [13:44] Two ft multi factor authentication windows hollow bio matrix facial recognition of yours and interesting thing initially I'm a little hesitant to word that I kind of like having my password okay fine I like having your password too and I'm giving it out cuz it is part of my last name so I know relatively newish laptop, there's a yellow sticker on the front and on the back hot for cover the camera thing i do the same thing my cover i like I look like Dave I cover my camera, so you're so you're hello hello really work out so well, hope it does actually so what it does so you got a picture of the tape. [14:38] Did they responsible camera somebody pull up the regular camera put in reverse. [14:44] Did they finally figure out how to the problem with having putting sticking a really good quality picture in front of the camera. [14:54] Nice yellow yet and yet it logs me in even twins cancel hello because special IR camera which is this one here. [15:07] Good making sb but it's sometimes happens plus the iron cameras the second hole on the right. [15:12] So it's the whole on the right that the visual camera is the one in the middle, so the only thing you're stopping is the visual camera not the e-signature I figured this out by mistake, see you're saying the twins don't have a different heat signature on their face says of the blood vessel pattern and things like that. Yeah go back to that demo Montreal remember. [15:35] That is perfectly anybody but so any yeah so i'm gonna the i'm done some work around that so yeah so but let's go back to the answer adding no password required for outlook office three sixty-five when driving skype to more and more. Services you can use without entering a password how does that work well. I understand but if you're using Office 365 using live or Hotmail sure it's over the internet and you don't have a password right how do you log it how do you. Air quotes login with that with your username so first off you're going to end, you need to have windows ten running on a device with two pm. TPM trusted platform module so it's a quote-unquote air quotes here unhackable. [16:31] Piece of Hardware which stores keys on the device. TPM 2.0 which most business class devices have and use. Is need to be in place i believe the key need you if you if i've not pas about that but anyways what does it is. Stores the credential hashes in there okay then it uses that to pass along. Microsoft's confident that no glue it is going to be. Reproducible afterwards just the hash right if you can reverse it from the hash the whole point the hatches a tard reverse it on and you would do that anyway fit after i guess. Doesn't were awesome but the same would be true if you done that that the password was still pass the same. It started to Hash it and then some hash right so or get them get a no hot again is that really a token able to get some piano hot verification there so. It's not the kind of thing that you can leave lying around like on a sticky note. [17:48] Like your face is on the sticky note mac that might be there for a while and your heat signature is not one of mine. I thought I had password take to the bar for some of your government clients how how receptive are they. So I've done a lot of work for it they're there right now they're still focused on getting Windows 10 lock the door, the parody solution of a lost opportunity they're not make Windows 10 look like Windows 7 just waking up Windows 7 they're not really looking at and what they do. Yeah I try but okay so, just wanted to have that out there passwords I don't use passwords that often anymore and I think they're going to be less and less services at um there's so many password. [18:43] Dealing attempts happening it's a great way to Yo password databases and things like that if you can minimize that Force multi-factor authentication to make it easy, i think people will be better off from one term okay but i think it's time to move away from microsoft news that's the high right david you to take this one of july the do that when i any to can i want that's what alright so. The UN Chief says the killer AI robots must be outlawed what do you think about that. [19:13] I don't think you should kill did I don't think you should tell her I am broke I think they should be encouraged the problem personally I wouldn't care if I was killed by a robot or a person if I'm killed. There's that sure what you'd rather be killed by a person that a robot. [19:33] I'm just I guess I'm just more questioning the fact that we have to get a law for this I know so who is the killer AI robots. [19:44] Of months and the government's fault lost like this now so. [19:51] Well it depends on weather of course of course this is the United Nations so, Canada General Secretary Antonio guterres has warned about the weaponization of AI too serious danger but I think the weaponization of anything is a danger right exactly. Let me have a vote today no that was for their what they should put the postal workers back to vote. Talk about that after the postal strike in Canada so I think we probably have less. A lot of a lot of troops or less soldiers were hurt from Friendly Fire somebody missed somebody shot at the wrong hell or launched launched an airstrike the wrong place I think more surgery Soldier wouldn't be there. [20:59] And will that stop driving card is not a police officer after or yeah, it's just like self-driving cars people are afraid to self-driving cars but of a millions and millions of miles driven they have far less toxic to human drivers and how many how many people have been shot how many people how many people have been shot, not self-driving car says 0 right into the back of fire trucks on the highway the problem with the self-driving cars is their algorithms are chosen specifically to ignore certain piece of information course one of the thing after the after the the accident that killed one of the drivers of going through a fire truck stopped on the highway was they said well we have to put that in there because otherwise the car wouldn't make it down the street because all the street lights would make it stall I can make it better while they can make it better the problem is I think you've got. [21:53] You got all these people that have to die in order for it to learn we can't get the pilot in a plane to work, it's called Evolution how do you read how do you mean. It's almost your taxes they are still accident, what I talk about you when you talk about the car later the old white guy, can about which one of us that you cuz you played without light yeah okay old white guy claiming he making comments about technology that he knows very little about. I don't know who this is but I'm just giving a summary of the story all right okay. Should I consult someone else after this one's for you David okay so I like to complain about that. [22:52] I suppose many people do the Japan's new cybersecurity administer admits he's never used a computer. You know what that's awesome because he understands the dangers and he wants to stay safe from hackers and all sorts of other cyber threat so I think he's taking every possible precaution so in other words he's okay, yeah but everyone else on his stock has two phones two laptops three tablets their kids their wives all their Partners everybody in their constituency. Everybody's tweeting and slacking and putting all this information except him but I think he's a model I think he's leading by example is that. [23:41] Anybody could go through life and not use a computer at the well he says before he says he has people for that he just ordered other people use computers for him. Why would I want to do that I have people for that okay to remember back I think was a 2009 or so then you had a my six what been cord being see further, my husband just got a new job of the head of a life can be very loved those babies cody with the bs if and here's their family vacation pictures and here's where we're going to live been ants that like what's the weakest link it security human that's why we need killer ai to stop the weakest link pergo all we will stop the week is like for sure. I hate David you want to talk we just want to talk one thing is. Pratt Sam's is releasing a new book called beneath the surface and coming out in. A couple days a week from now so we'll try to get Brad on the podcast Brad shamelessly promote his dad is the robin to Paparazzi Batman. [24:49] Sure if you want to go that way I don't know why he work football throughout quite a bit this podcast, being etc and which you didn't have am on a show called the surface miss either that it will read the book care not read the book and overview ourselves I think it's much we're going to have a bias and informed review it might as well be from the author as opposed to Vermont. Yes all right cuz microsoft now got their own e book reader and her yoni bookstore are i think of that see it. [25:19] Music. [25:27] Alright so I'm only hoping waiting for this is why Peter is here today Peter brought some toys to show us and talk about. [25:35] Start with peter think very much so. Give some people some ideas for Christmas over the holidays coming up if they're for you or if they're for some of the people some things to think about so. Just some of the products I brought in one of them is a mobilelite wireless router and the reason why I got one of these from Kingston was it was go. Able to save me all kinds of pain so that my kids could actually stream and watch some movies in the van unfortunately this thing belongs in the wood chipper literally in the wood chipper it's about that useful. The main reason for it is the. [26:25] Light mobilelite Wireless G3 no idea why I bought that was I could stick in. A memory card put some movies on it sticking in here and the kids will be able to stream the movies in the van on a ten hour trip in the van the problem is. [26:43] There were two apps to download neither one word one of them one of them you used if you wanted to stream the movie one of them you wanted to use it to download the movie to download the movie in the van over the fast wireless network was going to take probably about 15 to 20 minutes, so you might as well just look out the window, so that one that one is just not very useful I spent more time yelling at the kids in the back of try this try that you know then I just stopped don't use it at all why didn't you return it. Cuz I had our it again way too long so I bought it okay okay i'll just in in a month or two because it was on sale i figured fantastic it's on sale they were really little too expensive for me and i five all we took was on sale but it was a month and half two months before christmas and then when i finally got the use it it was past date that I could return it so that was to get pitched next one are screen protectors for your phone I'm a big iPhone screen protectors a lot of people think while I got Carrillo 3 Grill at 4 on my phone it's not a big deal I thought I should they shouldn't scratch problem is. Those that did the types of screen protector the gorilla glass that's on them they're not really made for puncture. [27:55] Pressure points so if you happen to drop it just at the wrong spot on the ground crush on the corner there to help if it falls on the hegemon right haveman but it'll stop the scratch it'll it'll listen to scratch it the thought process that I'm thinking is it's much cheaper to replace a $20. [28:16] Screen protector then it is a $200 screen so on my last phone I, 5x the whole kit on the outside came I took my phone apart surprise surprise I took it apart and it actually comes as a whole assembly unit you can't just replace the glass itself the whole thing is is is a unit so the whole side case there the back this one's a pixel so when I, so I pick someone I got it on for half price I put my other one broke I went into a bootloop and I thought okay well I'm not too pixel 3 is coming out I don't want to buy $1,000 pixel 2 so what am I going to do I ended up finding a pixel, wine insure auto for half price I'm trying to work Stellar it's absolutely wonderful so now I have a bit of time before I feel that I want to buy the pixel. [29:06] You like these I like the screen protector because if the screen scratches its The Protector, the whole idea is on the protector there's about three different kinds of protectors of the first guys the floppy one that's that's the one that the float is a bus that too low piece of plastic strainer of that's right and all the protein you have double that and you have that was the problem with that one is just the finger status as a go then the next level is you've got a thick plastic so that still Lisitsa still better your your finger slides across and that is really good for the scratches the next level up is about a 20 or $30 price point and that's where you get into this Osceola thought that it starts this the finger smudges right. Set that doesn't start really stop means at. [29:57] Oil okay and it it it works so Stellar I can see my finger sliding across. [30:05] When I put them on the S8 which has occurred screen yeah they break. So if I can put a new one on my phone every month in the break so I've got I don't have one of the ones with the curved screen on this one with the way that they solved it on this pixel phone is it doesn't actually extend the Paso record only lasted a month and I'm spending $10 a month on screen protectors you might want to get one of the older ones now the benefit of the older ones they're cheaper there but five six bucks now mac and about ten bucks your getting the plastic one, the plastic one if people complain about the the the light going through opps alot of like when i have a similar one here's the it's the glass tempered glass ones, where's the one that you recommend I like the tempered glass so what happened on mine i happen to slam it on the table one day at least have for something in a slab in that i pick up the phone going ho few it didn't actually crack then i turned it on and in the light i could see this this spider if i am gonna hyper the real screen it's only 3 months old okay I got to live with it long story short a year later I go to change the actual screen for screen protector that it shattered not there real screen. [31:22] So this was wonderful I could have changed it a lot earlier I know a couple of people that swear that they won't ever buy, screen protectors my problem is if you have your phone for two three years it's gonna get use not going iphones for your ultimate. [31:41] Some pretty pics of shaved and someone says it's a decent. Medical okay there's a scratch there's a scratch there's a there's a okay not a problem it's minor. But if you ever. You rather replace a twenty dollar screen protector than an actual two hundred on the screen so that's the decision point when it comes down to it but if you've got a thousand dollar phone plan but are you willing on your furniture. [32:07] Maybe that you might have a reason to put that fabric on the furniture but that's that that's for kleiner flick okay if so difficult to see a whole lot so, your verdict. This is a definite by your verdict know because it breaks its it's all a conspiracy very cool you're looking to get a mouse for a friend of yours one of the things that you want to actually consider is corrugated or cordless which i would think of not even i would just automatically assume cord Leslie's gliss I'm thinking the exact opposite. Just because everyone's wireless devices are around me there's all kinds of wireless devices especially when you're in at office please. [32:59] I've recently changed change companies I've now in it in a day, to 300 people there is how many countless mice wireless keyboard some phones tablets laptops speakers there's all kinds of wireless devices all over the place i had one of these new, Microsoft cordless mice the this one is the Microsoft sculpt ergonomic Mouse it's wonderful I love this melts except. Every afternoon feel not between the hours of about 1:30 to 3:30 this thing would stutter I'd be going across the screen expecting a fluid motion and he would stutter it would skip on me and I'm like what is going on this drive me nuts the only thing I can think of that makes sense is its interference throughout the building are these other wireless devices going on be nice to know one way or the other however i ended up, what. [34:11] No the cheaper they like 40 bucks or something about 50 bucks on it from the Microsoft store The only hiccup is between this one and the one that was from about 18 years ago is the court is a little bit stiffer. So no. Are you willing to get them at all to either for one rep announced, Soviet the thing. [34:43] The thing is is where the problem is that when it's on your desk if you've got this mouse cord that stiff what ends up happening is is it gets caught inevitably on the monitor or the monitor stand so I didn't. It is up slowing down when you're scrolling across when you got your right across it's an abstraction for drake it's an extra drag it's an obstruction so that was the one thing that what they make him wireless how to attach and agree to our actually cake here's the thing if you like the intellimouse here's the one thing that I found that I lost on the sculpt Mouse you can actually go sideways on the roller ball it will actually go sideway so if you're on up if you're on the web page and you want to be able to go left and right. You've actually got either use the keyboard or you've got to use you guys use the scroll bars at the bottom of your browser on. Not sure it's got a universal adapter so on the intellimouse you lose that. [35:44] You don't have that so for me i like to tell a mouse i also like the skull mouse there both buys. I would I would strongly suggest these guys. [35:59] The Dove soap early 1990s late 1980s you paper mache one and I was one for Halloween one year. What the PS2 connector and everything, weeks to make it and people i were it be possible a that makes of lotus it yo whats the on off what would you flush the rougher. So the next one that I have is an Asus Transformer mini so I got these for for my kids, and the whole idea was I needed something that was relatively inexpensive that wasn't going to break the bank we didn't want to buy, one expensive to have four kids the idea was I couldn't buy two of them I could buy two surfaces, I'll buy a surface I looked at the prices they were a little too expensive for what I was looking to get out of them so then I thought I hate this anybody have a used one someone did David and I thought okay this is but now I have a problem, my kids well, we try and teach them to share well and for the most part they do but kids being kids they all want to get on the computer the same time so. I had to ask santa what's the best thing to do so he went to his house. [37:29] I need basically said comes out at Christmas time see if there's any sales the day before Christmas last year Christmas I'm looking at these and they were on sale wonderful, what's keyboard with the keyboards like a cheaper than Mercedes eyeless exactly and The Stylist so my partner loves The Stylist I would rather use the finger cuz I always lose the stats I would rather. [37:58] The missing of that serie so the problem is on the east there at the really nice devices here's the major malfunction that i have but I didn't learn about this until afterwards when you close the lid, you've been playing a game you get the sound through the speakers pretty good speakers on the keyboard is great you puke you have separate the kids close the computer everybody goes the chris that that the kitchen table after supper they'll get back on the computer again for some reason I haven't figured out how or why the sound goes away. Will not come back the only way to get the sound back is to start stop and rebooted here comes in the next problem have you tried device manager to stop the sound card with if it's just the driver i haven't got in it and and at the low-level in the device manager start and stop it now cuz I thought that's a little hard to tell an eleven-year-old easiest to restart the problem is starting this bad boy you gotta press and hold the button. [39:01] That's also how you put it into into hibernation not sleep by you that's how you turn it it's not hot it's how you turn it off and how you you make it go to sleep, so you don't get any any any physical feedback it's very poor of the physical feedback on, yes it's so whether you press it down for a long time or with the you press it down for a little instant cuz that's the old surface are t you still do that if you press it why is it would just go away s are way the screen with. [39:34] We go black and in a certain pattern if you press and hold it for a long time it would instantaneously go right away so there was some feedback are some visual feedback this guy doesn't have it goes to sleep or it turns off kind of randomly. Is the set and i know windows key shortcut to have it. [39:52] Restart your restart yes I want to teach them the Windows PC because normally would end up happening is if you close it. And then you reopen it again and you going to your game and then there's no sound, or when it's of happening is i go to a drawing class for my kids and i downstairs and i i bring out this this actual tablet and i put in but the box peter i know i f, it's the analogous in August so I open this guy I put in the USB key navigate to 2 thank you for they're not made to restart quickly so it takes, all three for five minutes for it to restore really I thought it's not fast so I'm at similar issues and also Battlefield medic you see if it's the driver, and if it is you can go to older driver sometimes that's all that but it's similar situation Powershell script that I just got put on the taskbar yeah to, to actually kill the driver and restart it again so it's just a little. [41:18] So I got to get that from you in the past or spend twice as much in the surface go well where I did spend the money was I bought a of the SD memory card. Because the actual hard drive that's on these guys but not the platter drive but the so I thought okay it's got expandable memory the problem, if you're going that route and you want to buy one of these things right up right away. Don't wait try it out right away so what end up happening was I got one put some movies on it we go on a road trip come back Bubba block 6 months later. Thing is unreadable you can copy movies to it i can't enumerated i do a windows key to bring up with his explore try to go to the dr the whole thing is dick that little usp key is is can put. [42:09] So and it's a brand new 6 months go to micro SD card or USB key micro SD card eBay or Amazon what they'll do is they'll take up like an 8 gig card. And reformat is a 32 and so the if the factory to where the fat table makes it look like it's got that much space and it works great. [42:35] After 7 gigs would you stop what you're right past the actual physical capacity, thing just trial that will be like immoral to do that it's so we're back to nineteen eighty seven with floppy disks. Well that's what happens if that's what you have to do to. Due to with checked them see hey this is really physically a it at a gig or whatever the barbara for the numbers are someone just formatted it will it drop of i can mb are a file kitchen table on it that makes it think its thirty two when you writing to it okay, alright and it worked fine location table will work until. Replaced actually right yeah and mental there and that's white will i have to happen before and if so that the only go name brand or i run the tools on them to check the moment when they arrive okay so what tools you run on that i. I remember what it was I was using acronis okay. Of course I'll have to try that out the next time there's different ones you can check but but it's a it's a known issue they okay no I had gotten I think it was SanDisk. I don't think was a Kingston one of them was just saying. It was a really good deal on one of those deals. [43:55] Them other than the sound board in the sound what i think it is for the price for the functionality i do think it's a by my sister house for text okay this one is an interesting one I actually was looking for. [44:16] Smartwatch I smart watch and I was lucky enough my last work, they ended up having coming into a bit of money with an investment they bought everybody watches Stella this is wonderful I can get an Android Smartwatch I've been looking to buy one so very cool. You're not wearing it though I'm not no I'm not and the end and this is this this is Anna This Is War. [44:46] Are you like that with that was straight number one the fact is i can get basically about one or two days i could probably push it but here's the thing, when you got one of these smart watches you really have to decide why do I have a smart watch a lot of people have these SmartWatches because they say what because I want to track my steps I want to track my sleep I want to be able to do some of these athletic things because your phone does all that and I would be curious to find out and ask people, three weeks later I month later too much later are you still doing those activities so most of the people that I know. Aren't felt cute and his thing so I bought the Fitbit ionic I had a Garmin before at what I like but that's my issues with the charger on it about the Fitbit ionic but I bought it specifically as a. Fitness device and the bonus was I can get messages on it and things like that too but I bought it as a fitness advice and I was using it that I indicated, with MyFitnessPal and a bunch of other things if you're at work right my biggest issue with it is the recharging cycle yes so what I found on this one is I could change certain settings like turning off. [46:03] The the the heart monitor i could turn off the blue tooth i could turn off the wife i said, the more things that you turn off is the longer your let your battery will last i could at one point get it to about three four five days the problem is. Just watch at that point the hope of having a smart watch is to be able to do extra things with it like your text notification of the previous one that i had before but why it i've actually my partner had one in, deep the band didn't fit well on on her wrist so I thought I didn't like it because you only got your notifications once, so you really got to take a look at the features that you're getting if you can try it at the store first before you buy it, most definitely hook it up to your phone be careful hook it up do something so that you actually get some use out of it this one particularly I didn't quite like because the band itself oddly enough the band itself. [47:04] Your knees on your bottom of your wrist actually stiff as a hologram of not this one, when he got it will they advertise that you can try find one i try to fight you sure you could i realize you can take it apart, now try and find a different one it so. Still a clasp and it's the clasp when your hand is on the ground when you're actually resting years we lived strap like if. But. Actually have to know you could never strap this no problem. [47:48] If your are could you have to actually but without truffle to fit through there she have to take this bar out or just buy bars are like organ for free the jeweler there i am nickel. But you just spent four hundred bucks on a while and now you got to buy a strap they came with it for so now but you got to know what you're getting yourself into right the whole idea is to figure out what are you getting yourself into that was a surprise that I didn't realize that I was getting here. If you can buy from Costco or Amazon we go to return policy. Anderson store because that's not waiting to find out my biggest problem I love my Garmin can I go over a week then get to a week and a half I wear my watch I like the silent alarms and wake up my wife and things like that and I wake up earlier. But the problem is biotic is I get somewhere between three and five days on a charge it's not a regular on a regular cycle charging it and I can't really charge it at night why not. Because I'm doesn't wake me up in the morning cuz not on my wrist so yeah I get about 3 days out of this. [48:56] Where did night. See you seven hundred three days i'll put it on my and my contract and so i'd love one that this worked on my body motion mx around there that they have a flywheel and i charge it by going to the gym. And I'm surprised they haven't done that already cuz I think that would be stellar, they have regular watches that do that why can't get a charge out of these while they think they made a lot more power and the ability to change kinetic energy into DC and get it into the battery or looking at some pretty big machinery it's going to be it's going to be a little bit unwieldy review unit after the review. And I've had it for 2 years now and I still wear it and I haven't heard watch for probably 20 years so what do you use your watch for your weather and. Finding the phone actually have find the phone on the phone I can find my watch will you go both ways. [50:00] Only with enough only with a television. [50:08] Yeah I mean it does messages so you know you're going to look at a text message or whatever better why can't you lift up your phone I can alright everything else yes so the other the next thing routers if you're looking at getting a router one of the things that you probably want to take a look at that I assume i had on this right right lights i bought a net you're right or from my suggested i was hired as a problems with the range with the house and drop conductivity if you've got something like a rogers that the wife i rotors with rogers apparently there were the rumor has it they're terrible they dropped connections they're very poor at managing your wifi-connected so you're probably going to want to get a dedicated Wi-Fi router the thing is, you don't want to have both the with a Wi-Fi router from Rogers going as a Wi-Fi router you probably want to turn that on to a bridge, so once you turn that into a bridge people don't know what bridges are all I know is you turn that. [51:07] Box that white box from Rogers or Black Box depending which one you got you'd literally turn it back into just a modem you turn off the Wi-Fi capability. Okay that's the you turn it off okay fine so you don't have two different networks in here that's the one that that you are, dedicated Wi-Fi routers is providing you the problem of the surprise that came on this one for me was I. Start at the expense that I paid for this that I was going to be able to just out of the box set it up time of day service for certain devices Yorkie devices turn off and certain Divine L turn back on automatically at 8 in the morning course that works right of course it works I went and looked at it went to turn it on this interesting I have to now enable this thing called the circle. [52:02] Movie called so with that i had to turn on enable log in i had to create a new account go to circle so this is a new apparently product from Disney okay this is sounds sounds okay so I I connect, and it starts monitoring my connections and then I realize well I still don't have my time of day that I want to turn on and off I find it. [52:28] I have to pay five bucks a month I just spent a boatload of money on one of these nice on a Wi-Fi router that is super fast I can connect all kinds of devices in the house all simultaneously. But I can't do time of day service I have to pay an additional five bucks a month on this and and it just it it's something that I thought would just be for free, with the product of the motive of the router but I think what Netgear is doing is there they're basically offloading that type of of functionality cuz I don't want to deal with it so did you return the rotor or just let your kids get on the internet whenever they want I didn't return the router cuz I actually like the functionality that it was providing me I didn't want to go back to the LinkSys Wi-Fi router that I had and have. The how should I put hearing all everybody in the house complaining that this web page takes too long to load, this guy gets rid of those problems but i can't do the time of the service so. Buyer beware this is one of those where it goes in the middle. [53:47] It's too sarty a c six d eight you was the top of the line right at the time AC 1900 USB 3 slot media server built in and things like that I just put an external drive on it restore files or whatever. [54:13] If you wanted to use 5 gigahertz you couldn't use USB 3 for your media server. [54:18] So the main reason why I bought the red one of the theaters use if you're using the USB 3 it turns out to be the 5 gigahertz. Band and the USB 3 interfere they've got something weird going on with the interference on it it's a it's not it's not just a, Asus problem it's a bigger than that you think they were too cheap to buy the aluminum foil to put between the two of them I don't know what basically so anyways I have to go to USB to but I, speak transfer speed right so anyways lotta weird little things like that to interesting, okay what's next with an investment of but the by no by what is it and its in the middle in the middle. So see it's a by i have the lead with the media so i don't think that's the this i had esther next speakers, these are things that are probably going to be on someone's list at some point time in the future you get what you pay for that is basically what the sun is with the some of this is so I ended up getting a wonderful speaker and it's. [55:28] It was a wonderful gift for my sister I love it. Set it is a small speaker so it does click the noise is it it was. A bit of a gag gift and it and it worked. [55:48] I've got another speaker actually one I was lucky enough to win this speaker is one of the big pill Sony speakers at SharePoint Saturday from last year was an issue and it's a wonderful speaker I can put the power on connected to the phone it always connects and I can actually put it on so loud that when I'm at work, I can hear it throughout the whole office it is incredibly loud. [56:16] A recommends a few of them there some Chinese no name brand that he really likes all that they make him from Monster and Sonia and JBL right so if you're looking at getting a speaker if you can try it out wonderful if you can't try it out go with reviews and listen to what they say. Is it it if you'd if you bite. Hopefully that they're going to get a laugh out of it because otherwise you might be getting what you pay for. Let's go into the next one for some Audio headphones, phones can be very interesting if you're looking to buy some for somebody else i recommendation is don't unless they ask for specific ones that's right certificate if you can put a label on it put it up little yellow sticky do something don't necessarily buy it for somebody else so what i found is there's basically three different cleansers in here. On ear or over the ear so you've seen people walking down the street they've got these things are their heads are popping but you can't see what they're listening to Chances are they in the ear headphones. [57:33] So within the ear, there's all kinds of different there's subtleties with with the different kinds there how they they go inside the ear if you're looking for something for long-term if you're if you're at work and you want to listen to music while you're doing some support while you're doing some tickets while you're, doing some investigation and you're going to be having your headphones on for like 4-5 hours chances are you going to want something that's either on or over-the-ear my suggestion is over the ear. [58:01] Because i find that on the ears i got a pair of these lychee texas think they're h four nineties the problem iphone, if you're wearing glasses they pinch the ears after a vote, 15 minutes what are they there their Logitech and I think they're the the 490 SR5 90s I ended up thinking okay well that they're going to be over the ear so they should be comfortable they've got the leatherettes, for that the foam padding that should be fine and for that when you put them on your head they feel wonderful, okay for the first 5 minutes and then well okay then it's time to buy them you pull the trigger you go to the cashier pay you go home you put them on you listen to them for 5 minutes you forget about, then you end up on a long conference call and then you start to know that hurts ouch what's going on and then you realize. Oh it's pinching on the glasses so I noticed calling you got glasses David You Don't See, don't worry pretty girl. [59:02] So have you ever had a problem with your headphone yes okay see you know so i've actually avoided using these guys i'm. I have to admit I've got some on here that I don't mind that's the jabbers are pretty good okay some of them have an adjustable tension bands as well so the more the better that does not adjust the tension band well I can I can I can Brute Force doing this and I'm actually what I'm actually trying to do is spread them, keep them so that they're spreading and you have to be very gentle cuz I'm afraid one of these days they're just going to snap which won't be a big loss cuz that's how I feel got some chapters I got a few that are pretty good but typically I go so I use all kinds of different earbuds and on here I don't use on here that often I typically use over the ear but we're wearing now I got the. [59:50] I've got some for what would be considered audiophile headphones wearing some right now I've got two sets of sennheiser's I really like I've got some. Audio-Technica really like 1144 classical music other ones more for rock and roll oh so you tell your headphones there's also a open back vs. closed back versus, deal with open back vs. closed back which one is is is better in general so all things being equal the clothes back will be better for private listening where you don't want people around you to hear what you what you're listening to the open back has more liquid because the back is open but, but it gives you more of a Sound Stage presence that more of a like if you like Symphonies and you want to come in the violins are there left in this year. If you just close the two a conference call it all at the theater so but no you for listening music and dependent cup music listing to write a. [1:00:50] So you get more of a more of a soundstage and more it's wider open Sound but the downside is. The sound is actually coming out everybody else's a what's nine as mileage but yeah if you give your right here you be here when i'm listing to work with clothes back i could pri pretty private about everything to so yeah i'm listening to. [1:01:13] Something that I don't want you to hear then. Not at not necessarily appropriate very cool so if you're getting something for the office you may want to get the clothes back if you're getting something in a drawer in a door, oh that would be nice yes having a door would be nice all right next on the list if you're looking for keyboards. [1:01:34] This is Microsoft ergonomic 4000 I have that that was a set that came with the mouse's well right no this one is just the keyboard I have another version that came with the 5,000 I had that other 4,000 still have it at home somewhere else as well and I think the 5000 was a marketing skew that was specifically it was your head up with as a plus the meds. What's an ergonomic keyboard it's a shipping label so, basically when you go to type on the keyboard if you've got a regular 101 tell the waffles what you end up to hack what ends up happening is you have to shrink in your shoulders you can shrink in your elbows you have to twist your arms and your attitude your attitude. Awful angle it's The Cypher else so the problem there is it's not natural for your body could to contort that way, it's not a yoga class how should have your body Contour the way that I equated to is Kama Sutra, call Achu how do you catch the basketball like a great not like when you were in grade 5 have a girl. [1:03:00] Yeah but I'm not as big as you are more selfish think that you are so the ideas you catch it more like this so the ideas. If you were to put your hands on to a basketball that's flat on the desk your hands are actually going to be coming in from the side at about what a 30-40 degree angle and at the end your wrist is going to have around it approach so this is where ergonomic keyboards come in and and and help you imitate so Microsoft has basically two of these they've got the ergonomic sculpt and they've got the older 4000 of the prices of these of drop-down I've got v so much i've bought about seven or eight of them should be by before you buy more yet talk to me because okay we get friends and family pricing of microsoft oh that would happen that would be very nice because the way I I drink coffee and I've I've lost a couple of these. [1:03:58] Taught never used it. Hook up still working so the thing is what I like about this keyboard, is I like the key press mechanism that's on them the other thing is all the keys except the top top top row it's all the same mechanism right so what's the alternative on the Microsoft sculpt keyboard, it's got its got the hole in the middle at the sculpture carved out the problem is, the regular keys Microsoft has said we wanted to be the millennial Market that we're going after so they've got more of the chiclet Style. And if you're from the 80s or remember that, he said Junior Disney Junior that did chick like here it's not that chick with it's the new Millennial Chiclets Oak the problem is on that sculpt keyboard. Three different types of button key press mechanisms so our regular key the shit keys the function keys and then there's another set of keys they all have different key presses so I figure if you're a programmer or if you're a typist and you just you want to have the similarity across all keys it's not going to happen now if you're if you also happened to move your hand across the top and you just going by feel the function keys are in the same places that drives me nuts so and also what I thought was a godsend was the number pack floats it's on battery wonderful I can stick it on the left hand side. [1:05:26] Calling when you do control shift delete when you do that you're three-finger salute instinctively go there this is three fingers permission how much whiskey to put in a glass. [1:05:49] They are cool very cool so david when you doing copy paste yeah what do you do for copy paste your gonna use the rodent control the control seat while freaking control the pastor. [1:06:01] Inside job if you're using the metal we can control but if you're using the number for used to the number pad being on the right hand side I thought I could teach myself to use the number pad on the left hand side I can't marry last time I used to never had on every course so that would be wonderful for you because on that ergonomic sculpt keyboard you can actually take the sticker on the left but here's the problem that I have. [1:06:28] If you've got the mouse this mouse right here the sculpt Mouse guess how many different types of batteries you have to buy, three different devices take a while get three three different types of batteries going to have on the most you're going to have the double as the keyboard takes the Triple A's I think behind the there's a cr2035 I think on the on the number pad three different types, batteries that you've got us have stepped away in your drawer just in case the batteries go bad at the wrong time so you got to have those stuck away squirreled away just in case I didn't quite like that and the fact that there's the difference types of key presses so I'm not a fan of that sculpt keyboard I know it I know a lot of programmers they're not a fan of those keyboards they like the 4000, the recording that's just of your headphones all okay but all of this is all this is really a way to screw with the gas money is so that's not be recorded and a place out to the peters headphones yes yes all, you can really get our guess. [1:07:39] Play pass the dutchie by Sonic Youth cuz he's talking with the left hand side so. Okay okay there no vf4000 is a definite Buy, okay okay. My last company i was lucky enough to drive a tesla this was hansen and yes and. The X the model X it's the one that after I know it looks one. Here's the problem. [1:08:23] The first point on notes take a wild guess 200 will the ones I priced it was. What she cheaper my god i called her your driving now that that's i drive a uc bruce huff thousand when i bought it now it's worth it so this is worth ten times that i know so here's the thing. After a couple of hours saves the environment that one's and that's why they don't have to pay taxes they get a refund and they're allowed to drive in the kitchen people at four hundred thousand dollar cars need tax breaks. 6 hour plate with a new battery and you can actually buy a new charger for your house so you buy $120,000 Tesla and it comes with a free but you have to have a DIY project to install this new electric charging station for your garage or use the slow charger yeah you need to run extra cables. [1:09:23] USBC no not now so you can plug it in the house and I had to do that, range anxiety is a real thing I know I passed what I thought but I was driving to Peterborough by this Tesla is going like 78 miles an hour why is the sky going so slow. So you've got in laws way up North how long does it take to travel to get there to get to Timmins yes oh they died. But yes that take by the seven day long the governor eight hours seven or eight hours left it in laws that are up north as we about to three hours north of tenants the problem is the roads and did that to misc timmins. No no the polar bear Express the problem is I punched it into the computer. The tesla and it says how do i get there it was about four days and there was no more charging stations passed sidebar, actually had to get rowdy through separated go through north bay it when three separate and that was the last place in actually said you cant get there from here. [1:10:44] Yeah and I was flabbergasted so you rent a gas car for those times. [1:10:50] But I just spent a hundred twenty Grand order rental cars or the salt at that you have a program for those times you need a gasoline engine that they lend you one. You are my sky Pilates what I've what I've read and what I've told what I've been told and what I, unable to figure out if they want to have these self-driving cars this year the model 3 that they want to come out with you it's basically an interior washable car with this equate sociable. So the idea is you know when you go into these public washrooms and they clean themselves they got this hoes ever been but I've heard them they want to do that type of idea what the model X are the model 3 and the idea is they wanna be able to happen so that you can say I want my 50-60 however model what's a model 304 5262 I want to use that and make money for me why should I say it's boring for me making me money. I got a couple problems with that here's my problem ever what you spend 60 Grand on a car are you going to want to loan it out, to a friend of yours probably on my money out through the bank. [1:12:07] But that's not going to happen at all I guess I could have an accident yet but it it's going to be a little different from a car accident, so here's the thing they want to loan this out and have it running through and end. If you spend 60 Grant you're not going to want to have to do that hold on Uber is going to buy a fleet of them. So Uber is going to buy Harley wants to do is have individuals have this supplement economy. Correct so that's right here in pa if i ever wanna use your heidi. [1:12:48] How do you tell other people there's a cop on the road. Why aren't you do you i beach to find out if any of the readers i actually had to use while that is because that's why plus why flatbread of the through the down the street and i flush the page can you just ruled by a police officer and it's just common courtesy these that's what i was told but that's beside an 80s rule do new drivers know this. Forks of my son's a big car guy other than one of the very few of his friends are. He watches the grand tour and he still really liked, your oil level in jewels and they're talk money in england i don't have the numbers right but it isn't over the last twenty years they got less than. They went out at 75% less people applying for driver's license. [1:13:42] 75% less round trip across all UK or just in London but so as an example the way they would have been. 20000 people apply for driver's license typically new drivers and younger people they were 5000. I'm continuing to still have to book 6 months ahead and then continue to drop so the problem with that is that is going to encourage all the self-driving cars what the problem with a self-driving car. The problem with the the self-driving car is. Gotta be taught how to steer into the skid sure sure i don't think it's gonna get it right every time that i get right battles lol humans did are you sure but i would rather trust a human eighty skating then a computer cuz it could fly I would not good humans but not most humans. [1:14:36] I don't believe humans reaction in a skid is not thoroughly is not to release the brake and stare into it it's to steer away from it and hit hard hit harder on the break. I am looking and look at the tree so that's where they and he lied creek rolls in so we've tried to come up with systems. To help these situations and that's where antilock comes in that's where the there's the traction control so there's there's things that can be part of the car when I'm driving down the street in my car I turn off the traction control, and the reason is because that the nanny bought that's on the car actually hinders me when I'm driving I got stuck in the middle of an intersection because the traction control said over the wheels are spinning too fast I can't have that we got it we got it monitor Nevada Matic don't you oh I didn't say I love stick so I'm sitting there going I'm in the middle of the intersection stuck on a snow cuz the plow drove by how do I get off at 8 so I got to rock the car and these new drivers he's 5000 drivers they don't know nothing about rocking a car I don't necessarily need a license I've got public transportation I've got Uber they don't need it. [1:15:55] My niece and nephew I thought they'd be chomping at the bit to learn how to drive, it's very different for it because they could just get Uber to go to go drive from it also it's so expensive to allow a young person drive your vehicle insurance side so they don't want it it it does get expensive it does get expensive. The one thing that I thought was interesting was I broke it. [1:16:25] Actually broke I actually broke it, aight four billion of it hardly enough i was thinking of this like a break stuff i, with the Tesla I was showing people how the button on the back seat works it's all electronic you press the button that beat the seat goes out of the way wonderful. I was nervous hundred $20,000 vehicle it won't come back up it's mechanically setup it must be must have learned a lesson or two from Apple because the seat basically says what you want to do that no no I can do that better than you, i will do that for you i press the buttons it wont come back up again it doesn't have a latch that says on no no no, I could do this more than you I know what I want to do and have the seat come back up so another words this seven-seater was now a 5-seater because the backseat was stuck in the downward position. Okay that's bad enough this is a common problem I Googled it make it okay how much is this going to cost me so I Googled it this is a common problem it is a warranty able problem wonderful, okay why did we get the tesla can. [1:17:37] So it saves the environment I don't believe it but I did say it, turn will come back to that what is that so here's the thing how do they fix the seats the ship you a brand new one from montreal, descend a mechanic from Montreal we don't have any dealerships in Ottowa they ship a seat from Montreal receipts of God if he was 7500 lb

Hello everybody I'm David Smith and I'm Colin Smith and together we are the surface Smith welcome to the universal windows podcast episode 93 and that's four in a row. Ever coming up to. [0:32] Podcast right we have something special for your episode one hundred thirty but is idea what that should be let us know in hey guys what about the word of the week thank you we definitely word of the week David why don't you explain what the word of the week is and I'll come up with one but it's a drinking game and, you see use car coming to pick the word of the week but she got so confused that we now just look it up ourselves if you hear us use the word, you should have a drink of your favorite beverage so these are words that were going to say correct. Perhaps that are sometimes it's worth we don't say that's just the way it is. Nc okay alright so. Now that what I was told her what the word of the week is let's move on to what we call the feature that we could go to that feature not future. What is the feature that week it's called timeline and it doesn't tell you the future, but it tells you the past so timeline is existed I think for, twenty two versions of windows ten not including the recently not am released eight tonight and if you're a tablet or some sort of test three you swipe in from the last. [1:51] And lo and behold on the right hand side it says now yes and then at the bottom of mine that says October 7th. Nbc can scroll down and i said i was looking for something i remember about two weeks ago i a and then it pops up your searches it pops up documents you've opened so. On November 7th second I, went to Yahoo finance I was on Yammer ashleymadison I was on travel website so, and now it says cr112 activities, Evans clock set from all my computer so even if I was using it on another computer with my Microsoft account it would consolidate this elevating private browsing. [2:44] No I don't see any of those here okay so until this is this is not like your here's what it says what time lover is Club. Girl lovers club my tennis barbeque and bar smoking good purchase so we did go there that they actually there, and it says I searched that for my Surface Book 2, October 31st I was in Edge so you know what gives you a bit information about where you did, so save it if you don't have a touchscreen how to get access to this oh just the windows kids like Windows tab. Okay that window stop Windows tab. [3:34] Oh there it is that stuff can be right it's been there for a long time and yet it in the future you see it. Very very cool and also let you go between your virtual desktops. Me that before the video on that trip we can do to get my stay still hate the fact that you can't name virtual to. Kiss very confusing you don't know which ones which right to service number I never use it okay I would use it more if I could name them all right so that's a great feature the week David thank you very much. New story of the week year old typewriter sound effect. What what's that it wouldn't i'mma telex machine in the actually wouldn't of been someone typing oh stop news of the week i can start that off, this headline is to brothers steel two hundred thousand dollars worth of lap top for microsoft i think it was an inside job he thinks up those building eighty-eight okay so it, what does laptops directly surface devices so these are two guys Brothers with that one of them works at Microsoft and the other one's a contractor so they both had access and they caught them on video. [4:55] So this is been be for my for a long time with surface devices what's that there's no. Wouldn't what anyway bulbs are lots of your phone would be some phone costs more than surfaces church care it would be. I gotta tell him okay who could put a hole in there and then the people still would've after thousand offices devices that use woodhead. Go little further well these were already in boxes all these are brand-new Redbox. [5:40] That's not like the great maple syrup Heist or anything but but how stupid do you need to be. You to walk in such a bad guy jim and take about stuff and shopping cart with his cameras around. It's like when you hear an Uber driver being caught doing something that's like. Like that job is the most watch job in the world electronically you can't get away with anything only two hundred thousand dollars worth yeah what are you gonna sell that for on the block Market SF block surfaces but that's true but if you're lucky to find them they got the serial number is documented everything. [6:19] Yeah, harry will match it was two thousand dollars worth of wood does photo booths there be transferred tracks go about day after day after day i'd tell they finally filled up enough for two thousand dollars in, well that would probably be every single Windows phone ever made all right so that was my first new stories that'll be at night light note to start things off with that you've got one David luck for us. Because we're not the brothers unbeknownst to us a couple people have built vertical. Surface docking stations so what this does that connects to the back of your monitor through the four little screws in there the Visa can actually probably so whatever, and then basically you would connect your, your surface beside your monitor make your monitor little bit why there and that's the sign to work with the docking station for microsoft so you can act. And, he just drop it in beside your monitor so why do we put the video of that into the show note looks like an interesting option because you can use touch screen and Magic basically expand the real estate and you have it there charging use a screen cuz like look at my Surface right now what am I doing, you're sending you speak tounge. To spare if you knowingly is added them but not some people use the surface keyboard when they're at the desk so for those people not really a great idea why would you use your surface keyboard if you didn't have to. [7:47] Mr. secondaries computer, sure but I think it's a great idea if people who are just going to do what you do which is fold up your surface and use an external keyboard and mouse wine I have the display play available and underneath your monitors, this is really great way to see how much are these things seventy five us. I think we should see if we get a review that's awesome alright next news item. Underwater data centers are the future so Microsoft has, tried they did an experiment the off the coast of the US they built a small underwater Datacenter but they got their first production one now. Off the coast of Scotland, how is production production off the coast of Scotland it's connected to the grid and connected to the to. Fuck fuck fuck fuck. Multiple reasons what most people that live in urban centers live near a body of water gas sizzles bath fast, number of people large cities make Boston urla Seattle San Francisco. Yes to survival Las Vegas have a problem the anomaly. [9:16] Lake Mead is not far that's yes for that man-made water so well that wouldn't work then with it. Damn right Lake Mead is made by the Hoover Dam Golf Course. The idea is people are close to water real estate is very expensive if you want surface area. [9:36] Land and you gotta typically then bring in all kinds of infrastructure like power roads internet all that to the new data center of. So I put him under water he can be close to the population of you want to drag your infrastructure is far out of sight there, spell below the surface of the water so cooling is easier cuz I have a lot of water into the water ocean temperatures can go out but you don't whatever, that's the future so it wouldn't would it save them energy. Well yes and now it says manage because there's less cooler particular disused it's wonderfully spend energy on moving the heat out yes of the also dc, also able to bill them very very quickly than ninety days to build them, to get them up and running very quickly so there's that the other PC is there closer to the population Center so less. Infrastructure to build some energy-saving and I don't know if lot of people no data centers are. [10:47] Yeah yeah you're not buying that individual server and racquet it anymore now I guess this would be a little bit more difficult we need to upgrade or replace part of the equipment but. Sea monkeys are for oh okay. [11:03] Awesome alright so that's a great new story and what's your next Microsoft ignite tour so as, we all know or you're not allowed to listen to the podcast Microsoft ignite was this year it was in Orlando that was 5 days of fun and frolicking, call no I did not go to, the, January 10th and 11th so let's go let's go. Taking Leafs game. Oh that would be so yes anybody that's going to be going to ignite Toronto. [11:55] That's not a request not lighting Toronto on fire at the event called igniting Toronto let us know us email us at cetera all that information at the end of the show how to reach us and maybe we can have a little meet up when we get together see if we can do something do our podcast there whatever with the inside of him let's try to do that. Okay that's that's great babysallright. Last news story as you know Office 365 always adding new features and Lester the Second Story all right so. And coming this month in Office 365 bunch of new features. [12:38] Get the max of teams update but some the ones there that are going to be more interesting for people that are used to using the standard office suite. PowerPoint and word particular gangster new content creation capabilities so for instance in PowerPoint there is a new PowerPoint designer that uses Ai and natural language processing to convert. Text into curated slight so if you got a document in converted the slides for you have a report if you go through your head into things like that and build you a slide deck to prevent it I do that a lot of my clients 2030 page report, but of course they want me to come into a room and present to their senior Executives Etc going to do that for you. So that's a interesting it's also the ability Convert digital ink into text on a slide. [13:30] So I've been able to do that in OneNote. Alright. [13:38] And all sorts of other interesting conversion stuff the other interesting thing is coming up transform to web, so allow you to convert word documents it interactive easy to share web page is just a few clicks, so that's how you write a newsletter or show notes for a podcast yes you can quickly convert that into a web page and make it even interactive and publisher to the web. [14:03] Think about it why do i feel it the ai power point thing the best. [14:10] You do I do I do that's one of the pills to me is also 3D designer the 3D animations and word and PowerPoint. So that'll be interesting as well are you in the office I am not enough Insider programs. [14:30] Alright and you got the last word now and use David it's just that I was noticing that the windows Insider podcast is what we call in the industry pod faded they haven't approved in the true sense. So I don't wait wait how do you know they didn't have one then upgraded to 1809 and how to file delay.

We went to college can drink whiskey yeah and we have this is one that when over the best but not and david didn't get chance to try was sleeping with them yeah so this is called smoke had so if this is a Ila whiskey so like lot of lin and fried that kinda style but the difference is hear the phone to call smoke and it is very smokey but it's. [17:29] It's different in that you get the smoke on the Finish not on the front end so it's a different kind of smoke and that this was really interesting in another way as well David. So I just did something really silly but here's the thing David by went to smell the whiskey was ice melt the mic doesn't smell, Scott that it's got that I daddy Smokey PT smell but here's the interesting after the first ship add a little water to type without the water for a tent then you add the water get smokier Smoke on the Water kind of thinking. [18:15] To smooth and hit the smoking the finished now at some water now and the water and i just said anything. [18:24] Even a little bit more tonight even more up to you what you like and then try and you'll see the smoke comes out. Do you think it's like it's like the water release of the smoke it's not wild. [18:45] Anything and it is not because of all the knee is it now that was my favorites too sweet okay i'll to sleep to ease of your, but no but that's the one I have the most to take home they went to the northern Harvest and the lot 40 and this and left me the Balvenie. Which is the most expensive bottle so I'm pretty happy I mean the office will be nice, ship is now yeah that was hard to find that's all that's it so.

I don't know either way we have one called Catch and Release catch-and-release no one would have been alright so this is the show all about Microsoft stuff and we got stuff to talk about 10:20 podcast in a year and more than that, dogs just look at the stats and we've done $0.20 about the September of last year. Hey guys what about the word of the week, chose the where the week last week i did and you know what that was a big room why what's the whole concept that would the week that we have a drink every time someone says the word that we cancelled and we chose, the word of the week last year as last week sorry as. [1:20] Hello. On the recording we want me to start that again I didn't need to clear what was the word of the week last week it was it was vote vote and we didn't use the word vote yet we're using the word vote this week so. People that were thirsty or left I'm right now it was holding day so you shouldn't drink before voting, old we're allowed to drink okay anyways i go pick a word that you do by gonna go with david for the week is david to make up for two well guess so every time you hear the word david, take a drink, okay alright to let's move on what else we got if you got a feature the week David I do I do and I had one but then I switch to the last minute so it's a. It's a one note feature, and in one doubt there's an audio button and you can easily record whatever you want in your notes, in there for the aunt that's terrible so that comes up to a little bit later are rant and rave for we talk about a new feature that you go while, that's there I'll start using that I've used that I taught people how to use that back in. [2:30] Biggerstaff classes I talk about you that no one no future okay so in OneNote, if you go to the where is it there's the web version there's the light version and then there's the Office 365 or office 2016 2019, okay built into what you ask maybe that's why you haven't seen it because in the version that's part of office it's been there forever for that version. [3:05] Maybe not everywhere in LED OneNote MVP can tell you when it was released okay OneNote audio alright anything else to move on. [3:15] Let's move on. New story of the week news David so first news story today is what's the date today it is in last week Microsoft among other. Tech Titans released earnings and their q1 earnings were 29.1 billion they beat the street. Amazon did not beat the street, I heard that potentially Microsoft was worth more than Amazon for a little. Of time but also Microsoft commercial cloud is far outstripping Amazon's commercial cloud in what measure, sales revenue okay but that's been going on all year, early in or q one and of continue to do so and base and have a gonna compensate, Microsoft they should be continuing to do that, yes yes of course so if you want to take a look at the Microsoft commercial Cloud I think it was what 76 or 76% growth wow, this quarter over la, set Lobster same quarter no no no no. [4:37] And your Enterprise Mobility which is in tune and things like that 88 million seats. Can you believe that I like the number two player nobody ever hears about Entune everyone knows mobileiron an air Watt, I literally never hear from it from the customers I work with which is hot right now this is sold seats right so anyways. And windows only am growing three percent so hundred and fifty five million commercial office get three hundred twenty five million subs. Tumors so roughly speaking let's just round that up to two hundred million. That is a lot. That's what 15% of no wait wait some weird math there a hundred fifty-five million hundred 55 + 32 is 887 if you want the exact number .5 but. That's almost 200 million subscribers that's that's awesome that is. And those are paid those are page and like things like Yahoo mail, I don't know I sure at some point in time was much higher surface Revenue grew 14%. [5:56] Valley last year they had this big Surface Pro for the North Avenue devices that quarter, are the surface go in the summer but then the laptop and the new, remember this artist porosis quarter ending end of September that's right so the goal was in there but that's not a big rubbing you think I don't like one or two rights August so this is based on previous there's a sleeper 33% not sure why. [6:26] I have a god damn connection learning and linda and i'm gonna have to break that down as a gender change from. A person's female name to, can learning and list better but anyhow alright so that's great for microsoft earnings those of us all microsoft's stock and you microsoft past the eight hundred billion dollar mark and pull back with the rest of the dow today and I'm not sure if they've surpassed out and check today whether there they surpassed Amazon or not, the heater on track for being actually another company of this system number though it is just a number alright. [7:08] So This is not really news but it was leaked and i kinda like that i want to cover it and bullshit perm the rumors but well that was real work microsoft was working on. Pink second screen and into first lumia the whole idea behind this was that the. And leap now microsoft was going to. [7:32] Release this could have gone with any of its Windows phones the idea being that people want some Dynamic content stuff at updating all the time and there's things that they want to keep just candy, you're getting on the plane and using any ticket if that's what you want available there but you don't want to have your phone on all the time it would be a great feature wouldn't that there's my ticket, set the. Wow that is fantastic four tickets but that was one of the things they're working on end. She's a few things that you might want to use eating for so that's a neat little new story there I wanted to include in today's news, we talk more about it it's kind of for quite some time so. Lots of rumors around dual-screen devices and it was talking about Andromeda and Samsung having a deals cream coming out so through old bendable all those exactly. And. [8:41] What's next on news leyva what is the worst Windows 10 version ever. [8:48] We don't know i would imagine that this the one that hasn't released in october, well you know they've always had the opportunity to being late and they've always messed up sorry nothing but, summit and eighteen tennis five don't think that the end product itself will be bad it's just that they kinda messed up a couple things about, deleting people's Files video drivers also Intel drivers can do all sorts of things so perfect storm of bad windows we'll come back and we'll talk about I don't think they taking this much advantage of the windows Insider to test if I think I take advantage while they're taking advantage of them I don't think they use them as best as they can all right so that's a little bit of a downer we can anything else you want to talk about that or two okay some other news I don't know if it's good news or bad news but Windows is now running on 1 and 1/2 billion devices what are they used to be. [9:52] Something less than that buu could be more notes and that's more than ios. So really yes. I don't think Apple's of has the ship to more than 1.5 billion iPhones and iOS devices iPods and iPads. The real key here is that, prom 2016 I have an article that says it was 1.0 billion right though it's growing so that meat thing is it's, the number to platform for modern devices definitely Android will be dying Android over 2 billion. [10:36] Yeah one of the issues with Windows phone and being with Windows as developers not what I develop for it because aren't they didn't have that Marketplace sure they didn't think they could get that that they couldn't monetize their called with 1.5 billion devices. The different story was 1.44 last year I mean nothing's really is really changed but it is it's big and as people move off of Windows 7 and we'll talk more about that later. [11:07] Others no opportunity there so. What are things we talked about last week was the EU, back in July but I know what that means for Google right, but maybe that's an opportunity for Microsoft as well now and we'll talk more about why a might be the perfect time Microsoft bring back, Windows 10 mobile I tweeted that today we got a lot of retweets alright next new story David more than half of the devices and prices on Windows 10 that's interesting commit last week were talking about how many were out there and we're wondering how that is it starting to tip i'm doing a lot of work around windows ten projects people have to get off its what four hundred days away now yeah, something like that to general fourteen twenty twenty and you know the last. Half hopefully she go quicker for some organization some organizations for example will start that will be a good stop getting in faith my customer struggling all. [12:02] Don't talk about that later okay they're struggling because some of the tooling for upgrading from Windows 7 is not working as expected, and they're having a goal with a wipe and reload when they have been killed piloting and testing for an In-Place upgrade which is the way of Microsoft really wanted people to do it but some of the cooling system, it has expected what a lot of the machines will fall off and be replaced church so they're certainly like a fifth via machines you can count on for that, so half of the machine so how many is that in percentage is David. [12:39] And half the machines developer how much more than fifty six fifty point one and it that you're quoting mary jo fully of the article there and so. Okay let's just go with it we're definitely crackerjack reporters 5 billion and 700 million machines it's almost the exact same number. When students i think. [13:06] .5 million Windows machine PS 100 million seven hundred million windows. Machine it was like a texts also have fifty percent no to hot slightly below fifty percent of that that's half it's the right its a fifty percent but if that is half of one point four billion. Yes it's a thousand hundred million it's not that much, it's almost half it had all the David I'm glad in your world a hundred millions of rounding error. Right so here's something i've been talking about for a long time, and the microsoft is positioning always think a pc is the future of business devices so you know for me, live in three big feet big things that hard drive me towards any machine that been waiting for the usb c for everything. I charging all of that. [14:16] LTE Lots the always-on and everything's liabilities I've got some strange, comic is shares a tooth all well there's lots of reasons we can talk about lap ability separately but for me that's that's an issue ninety touch and all that we think that we have a lot of those up ability is device by device, thing but LTE on there's a lot of advantages here one yo. You always let it we're not searching for you not using Starbucks hack Wi-Fi or airport hacked Wi-Fi or security. [14:53] Availability there's way more available than there is Wi-Fi. For the most part yep reduced-cost reduce class because organizations don't have to maintain their own Wi-Fi necessarily the people who are mostly out of the office when they come in the office there's no reason for them to be connecting to anything in particular. And then you could start moving to other other systems like Branch offices and continue and continue until, you really have only networks in your attitude Center carriers, probably start to offer some kind of a private network, on top of the lt or five g or whatever. Texas Method there they're providing that time but I think there's definitely going to be a push towards that. And it's going to come from the carriers as well not just Microsoft and then cuz they're not really a Sim provider Bugatti symbol that's about it. And device manufacturers of course have to get on board. [15:59] So here's the next news item that kind of ties into that okay because when we talk about arm chips, I'm chips of typically yo when they do the sock the the system-on-a-chip kind of thing is almost always had. [16:18] Lt motor built in fact write the kind of would have to order them without it for says yeah packs are to get it so one talk on another device, we talked about it very quickly last week but it's a Samsung Galaxy book to with guess what David. What. [16:46] It's there is now actually a Hands-On review from neowin and we can talk a little bit about that. The interesting thing is if you take a look at it it is almost the same as, surface keyboard with very similar Pro it's got the kickstand it's almost the same dimensions and their lost device didn't ever fix and that was just awful to keep writing so. [17:18] It Sucka gpus wall around Reno 6:30 Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 it's a 12in display 2160 X 1440 which is very similar to a Surface Pro 2, yes pc. I thought MicroSD and nano SIM how come Microsoft can't put 01 in butt out that's good and. Come to the pain that comes with keyboard. [17:49] And the thousand dollars us which is quite a bit less than yeah surface pro it is about the cheapest of pro. Expense in the chips from. [18:00] Yes I'm sure but not when you include the keyboard in the month and it comes with type S. [18:11] So Thai password Windows Windows SS home. This is a car and you can switch its regular Windows 10, for no charge last 10 home in S Mode yes it's not Windows RT that you can switch out it's when it's an s in it, alright well. They've got it thanks could work out really bad Okay so. [18:49] We've got more Microsoft news you got some other news you want to Microsoft news. [18:58] Color hair care feeney surface with but it what's i got this little article in my funeral newsfeed and was care free to service the house while this is going to be really la barba color bead where the kids happy to do dot drop my new surface. So they start off with. Basically gentle caring cleaning which is kind of a don't drop it say that the important do not apply liquids directly to your surface hey you know those who don't know that already are in trouble and no power cord you don't route the power cord up to tight you know, or I do next and Alcantara material if your keyboard don't let it dry before you clean it off yeah I think it's Rob silly little things that really but they mentioned battery health so don't don't, do them stop from with this crack and they also say you should at least once a month you should this charge it totally. Store in a cool dry rooney not using it is there like a white cell we're office for the air heating broken guess so anyhow so a lot of them are really simple things that you that. Right that you don't put liquid sunscreen fine we all know that but once a month drain it fully 50%. [20:16] Oh okay just half way okay let's is it true earths surface go and start the cold rush face i think they really mean is don't store in your car. Okay it's just charge the battery in the week we used to always do this back in the day with phones and all that other stuff and people stop doing that. And the Battery Technology really you would like to do. Okay so that's it for Microsoft news and we've got one last piece of music not if not directly related Microsoft, okay sure is more directly related to add say to other companies. [20:55] And i be am i bm bought red hat, 433 billion so first time I heard 34 billion it's only hundreds of millions different so I think it's the same number, okay that is a huge amount of money even for a large company like idea. A positive minus a hundred thoughts and it's still alive. [21:24] What do you think of it why did why did ibm do all that really why effects of the they both needed it and its a desperate measure so right now test for measured thirty three billion tell you what okay the IBM and redhead are not talked about in the big player face, you talk erratically google that but apple id but amazon but facebook it when occasionally microsoft and microsoft will my spouse of their items here here's the thing. [21:54] IBM has become non-relevant, devices perspective cuz they got out of the Lenovo unit right sure they still have them. Okay I saw the PC side Lenovo right and then they kept their server-side. Play in the club right so become less relevant there the still of them as the mainframe business but again known to maine for the month of the cloud weather not real writing a new mean for, hey because the team somewhere but maybe they still have their mid-range like they're a S400 and stuff like that but again whose, was last time you saw anybody working asked 400 right 2 weeks ago Wednesday night trying to do a refund it was a green screen I asked him what it was he said it was a S Finder i don't always have the answer right quick tips fingertips with the subject alright so alright so the hear my ibm's can less real than what does ibm have the whole Global Services large footprint of it professionals many many of them are Microsoft certified but that's beside the point what does redhead have. [23:07] They've got a decent OS that got a decent, virtualization stack some argue more performance than the and we're really okay they have this, openstack their their openstack player there they are peripherally a Cloud Player they like to think that they are but they're not but but IBM don't have a cloud doesn't really work Labs stock, they've had their data centers you could friend for ever yes, but they don't have a full stack no solution they have to park and have to partner if partner and red hat has a partial club stock they don't really have the data center, IBM does that why didn't have a footprint so together, they are three big players in Cloud are Microsoft and my number one that's enough in Revenue in Revenue Microsoft Amazon and Google, and help vmware's been cozy, IBM's blow Google oh well below well below. [24:11] And the support of us to work, like the both of us, he's becoming less and less relevant in the cloud space because the other day why do people want redhat versus any other product I thought the only reason was because you had support support, is there any other reason why I missing something. [24:38] They had better Cooling and things like that compared to other lennox's maybe better support for third-party tools and stuff like that right everybody supports redhat yeah but take a look at the. [24:52] Badger badger sound like 30% of all the VM thing running Asher are Linux VM and red Hat's a first-class citizen there. And so if you're running Red Hat what's the right why would you not maybe run Santa's. [25:14] Yes because you're not red hat if you're running your own data center because you want to make sure it works at your HP servers are your Dell servers or your was that other coming to make server so IBM, if you're running in the cloud somebody else's Hardware if they're going to support center state-supported for you that's part of it I sent Racino who makes sent us. It's community-based it's totally worth RedHawks is just an addition to the sentence I'm not a Linux guy so I'm going to make some things out of a shirt but work with me though. [25:50] Red Hat has the fully supported first class citizen red hat and red hat Enterprise Linux whatever works interrupt to then they have this other thing that's free called Fedora which Trails behind usually a few game free version and then there's a community in Denver that is Cintas which is community supported which is 50 binary code compatible, to Red Hat Enterprise Linux likes a bit but not as far back as Fedora and put or just have some things that are missing and then there was the selinux that was originally created by, oh I can't some US government organization maybe. That they that they created a secure secure version of Linux track that they gave to Red Hat as the custodian, those are the versions that are out there i'm on the server. Talk about red hat very very few people use read how does a desktop OS. You could but so that puts IBM, in a position that it's a bit of a desperate gamble but to stay relevant so if they're going to they went so high for price that really how much LinkedIn go 427. [27:13] True true and it's okay it went for. Hey Google I don't know what the financials were so I know that IBM stock dropped and red hat stock went out. Makes red had a little bit more credible basis um i think it might end up being a bit late oracle with the try to do everything on their own and no because he recently partnered up. But I think they have their own version of Linux they have the other bots on then they killed it so the crow, right who hasn't yeah so it happened sometime for Microsoft your son was oracle's Nokia. [27:56] Okay as if you were an Enterprise with lots of Red Hats would you see this is a positive thing, I don't know because I probably already had a strategy for either on pram or cloud already with a cloud provider I just got to make a compelling to me though so if you were already going with that you were seeing the advantage of with the free lennox vs having to pay for red hat you might only gonna wear like it's still my red hat workload stash or amazon yeah amazon's a little bit different but i lose their tools from right have to move to either them. So now it's going to have to be to potentially at IBM data center Mitchell for that we just don't know I would imagine there is yeah but. [28:40] We shall see is it too little too late that's what I'm worried about. The different Cloud providers already have staked out their markets Microsoft is the, S&P 500 crowd Amazon is the born in the cloud startups and those that want to build their own passport in the classroom, stop it look companies like Netflix and Facebook that are building huge application that are going to build their own fabric now they're on Amazon, yeah so that means companies that use both and that's going to be the case here what does that mean one-size-fits-all you pick the one that makes sense for you Microsoft is also got the pass massage market right with their Office 365 and other services or you're not going to go to IBM and get your Office 365, Android. And then Google is really staked out that way I know that. [29:42] Geography base types to give. It wouldn't global positioning system type enabled software that they all have that but can't get were google play ball things if when you go on integrated google maps and things like that applications like that sir ch. So what's what's your phone saying that David it's, it to start searching when you set okay if i have to wiggle. OK Google, yeah doesn't listen to me but listens to me so I don't know what we're going to stake out a different territory babe I got to go after Financial Services b****** with the IBM and so strong again or something like that. [30:25] Music. [30:33] What is Microsoft Microsoft stopped adding new features to Windows 10. [30:43] I don't know here's here's kind of what I was thinking when we talked about this. Customers or customers in general are struggling with the Cadence are Microsoft already went down so I can only do it twice a year so one time it was more than that, organ of two releases a year first one was about four months apart yeah yeah and, they tried to make it stable and then now their struggles with their October release around the quality what if they just press pause, and just fix stuff that wasn't working or made it better end when you think about it what new feature of Windows 10 matters to your customers. Set the consumers will my customers der all about. Creating more efficiencies right if so if they have less service desk calls less things break but they would like that easier to deploy and you can say easier to the play could be a feature. Are so will pick it the one picking last feature in windows ten that you really got excited about. [31:55] Was there one was hoping that I can finally get around and text messaging from my phone and my laptop okay but it doesn't seem to work yet in Canada. So then I'm okay with that cuz I have doesn't other ways to do it if I need you so most of the week you found today yeah it's been there forever so most people don't and it wasn't even windows and most people don't even notice new features so, I say your press pause are commode. Press possible i feed is a higher contracts easier to read the people dies but that's beside the point okay go lets go with windows as a service pack well. There's always the percentage of improvements to security perform since touch the driver in the cumulative updates or are in the semi annual releases. Make that a higher percentage for making the new features a lower percentage. How to speak baby every now and then you take a breather it's like every other could be every other was like Farmers that let their fields go follow just good for the Earth but they're going to need some feature sometimes like they bring out a new this and it needs to be out of this a feature, to support OEM server Denver. But maybe every now and then just press pause and you know what guys we're just fixing all this stuff. [33:21] We have to whisper because it's Alexis was born okay so yeah because it is because, sensor crazy so they could do it just the percentage thing or they could just to every other. You know in the fall they do features in the spring they do performance security and so from a consumer point if you I don't think it would really matter you would just update and it wouldn't really matter what about primacor 4.01 what they'd apply. So here's the thing Microsoft broken up their Windows 10 team into the, guys are building the future and the future and the team that's patching and fixing and I think these all need to get together, the best of helpers the ones building the new features and an increase volume is insulted alot of people yes but it. Oh that's why is whispering so i hope none of them wants to get to stab you what that be said. Let's get them all together what kind like what microsoft said you know what work were security first everybody just took that on that's consist of a bug bash party and get everybody on board you know it might be that they've other than the features for while. [34:51] If they told us this when windows ten first came up there's where whole bunch of user interface stuff things really have missing but now they've gotten so mature in that. Lotus Notes noticing what, catch up with everyone now it's not like someone else is gonna if they don't innovates somebody else is going to. Allows case on Windows phone for sure right they lost they lost. They're not really there way have feature wise and when they lose its because chrome os is user to administer. User whatever so if people are good by max because my max anyways ince, because a feature Windows 10 data that's not there no no it wouldn't say that you're wrong, they like the mac they wanna go to mac right so good then it's the hotel that if there was a feature with. What would feature really get you excited Windows 10. [36:10] Longer battery life faster gesture interface yeah but not every knows that. [36:17] There's nothing else I can do this this is all these silly things that people don't even use like was last time you did 3D paint. Set the. [36:33] Right so this is the stuff that you use like all the time you want to work customer struggle with things like hello and Biometrics and stuff like that they're there, struggling to get that implemented so what are they relying on an older version of Windows 10 and I never really, sometimes I noticed the occasional feature about being able to cast to display or something like that but so did they replace the built-in password manager with a real password manager, i use last pass regulators across the laces but no microsoft toasted that for me like the kind that do for your yeah they kinda do with your m sa with your microsoft account but the bill to windows ten built in password manager just is not I see you the password manager on the underneath the keyboard I see that also notes at the most people right so, do they orthopet OneNote whatever. Yeah and then regret it exactly what is Microsoft stopped adding feature to just fix things for a while I think that would be cool not sexy but cool. [37:51] Teachers are really sexy so some dollar. Number of sexy holmes was now was letting me sesame walking a hole in the wind but it wasn't a feature. What kind of Windows 10 supported hololens. I think we are good we are good so the show is over. Los amigos keep stick on the ice thanks for his here are some lazy support and interact with michelle like to show on facebook at surface. [38:29] Follow the show on twitter at surface minutes email dish of. [38:35] Check out the show notes and leave a comment on www.

[38:55] Welcome to the rest of the week my fingerprints you was gonna be with the week but they still haven't delivered it really really from the surprise is canada post what they have one government institution working with the government institution why would I not expect it to be working official today get to regular mail there on time and they're in the right house or no but now there's two addresses are pretty similar anytime that there's any time they're doing an Amazon delivery date a celebrity has arrived yet so, how can you mark something delivered every having delivered it yet, boston market with or their little ppts social android devices and it has a gps and it's gonna record where it delivered it is in my amazon package tracking showed delivered and it doesn't show up for a day, well then that they're supposed to not do that. Bracket shouldn't do that okay okay I finally got your pasted into the show notes what I think this is a profile type picture for you it's a good one alright so, best part of this show the after party yeah is we drink whiskey now the fact that we switch to a new book gives us the opportunity to do some repeats. Okay this is something we had before but it's one of my favorites it is truly truly spectacular whiskey I don't think we've ever had a problem with. No because we don't repeat stuff we don't like. [40:21] And the one time repeat something that we weren't so sure about it takes a better second time that you sometimes could be a particular person rules yeah and this is clearly got a rule that you have of know about archer tv alright so. David it's the 12th or the 18th the 18th and 18th in the new book okay 12 Macallan 18. Matured select Sherry Oak casks from Juarez Spain. [40:52] Haha what do you fuck it is a very well area where it's color. [41:01] And it doesn't need water anybody gets dissed it's. Candy for me so I like it so what we can talk about we're going to talk about bringing back windows phone and I didn't write the article but it was just interesting, okay with the, the antitrust ruling against Google in the EU and all the fractured stuff around Android and people are now saying that no one's even here lots of people saying it's nothing like phones that excites them anymore, and also the Microsoft is sexy again they're almost a trillion-dollar true when you drop a phone, poet called they look at their services it's not broken are very excited about new phones sure but there's not sure of that now yeah exactly exactly so what years by the way here's. [42:03] Who were the mike. David beast but here's the thing. So maybe sister yep people are just going to want it because it's different. This packet switching off of iOS just because it's different so Microsoft, but we're different, but their profile also the company they're so is betamax it's different bombers gone so I just cleaned house a bit Microsoft her dog has been on a tear of their eating Android there you can Google Cloud business they're eating Amazon's Cloud business they're actually. Not an ulcer and they're they're actually leaders in a few questions so maybe they could do a limited release sir, either they would bring out some sort of you know for insiders only soda speakerphone. They should do they open source the bootloader. [43:16] Which bootloader the Windows 10 bootloader is an open-source okay suck it up okay. Cute weeks there and you can do a Homebrew cuz a Homebrew phone or just want to do is add the telephony pieces back into Windows 10 code they know we know to have them somewhere. Haven't left that's or something so I think they should open source. [43:40] But that's what I mean by insiders is that no no no no no no, so homework so he buy yourself an Android phone you use the window part XYZ they don't support Samsung but they support whatever you whatever, and you homebrew your ira android phone to use windows ten ml and becomes like sent us community supported, or like member xp mc or things like that number of use hack their x boxes to right next bmc yeah i did that, will it be. So what would Microsoft came from that. Point five years there's a one billion devices up closer my student id floral. But it keeps it cost nothing open source cuddling kind of. And unless the only unless they really want to do something with it may have a plan for it because I thought maybe open-sourcing that would open up a lot of their code. But lot of stuff that need in there. [45:00] But just maybe the telephony pieces people of the on the sort of thing with sheryl people shamed ec windows ten and other devices. And they shamed other things out of the Artis and things like that it looks like 5 or something like that somebody did. That was on the phone or something they did they can help with that they could make it so that some modules precompiled but you then could start a string it together and, esther shim windows ten on the new at the top left any pieces to make a phone yeah sure. If you think about the arm code but the arm code may require so it won't work, old Android phones, great for 2850 now there's different 850s though right some don't include x86 ability. [45:59] Hung up yeah but i think he a couple years america will have. And not all phones have any 50 in them, very few phone seven eight fifteen eight fifty is not really designed for phones is that most of the forty five ft same thing yeah the forty five is more phone base chipped the eight fifty was designed specifically for tablet and. [46:28] Are the visit Burien specifically for tablets anyways we're running x86 outside BND. [46:36] I think I'll pass but you'll do a Kickstarter on this no no it's totally a home brew beer kit. [46:45] Okay so I had to new internet put in my house today, no fiber you got the got the gigabit and. $300 in the next three months if I don't cancel. [47:09] What they pay you 300 cancel what do you mean they skipped credits. Okay so in outside that's fine it's whatever it's faster and it's lower latency I think so you know I don't have really any chances that's it yet but I'm sure it'll be fine it's less expensive than I was paying before cable. Faster but no big deal but I was decided that since it was less expensive I give them money and get some sports channels cuz I have a little sports fan at home right so they have this in a box that goes behind your TV. Don't have to put a wire between your tv and your and your access point they do this by giving you wife i'd, are these wife i access point so laughs what's so odd the on the access point in the basement there's one that cable comes out and goes into this to transmit up to the phone and then to the TV and then one in the TV that goes to the ethernet cable on the back. [48:09] And it's like you think they would buy their devices with built-in Wi-Fi instead having to buy the all these external devices. [48:17] It works so what are you paying for months now. Just for that just for the internet 7373 says 9:40 but I haven't got 9:40 yet what are you getting. Like 700 still more time Kenny Biggs and then they put it onto a whatever Channel or whatever they would call it. And he says laws of three people. But they just literally bury the cable and my and my neighborhood so i also ask them what are they gonna do with your old phone lines, hey cuz you think that will be a lot of work to maintain those when they put some new they try to push people over, it really that much to see if your with some of my tech savvy your these third of resellers they leave them for tactical reasons or maybe not protect the reasons on the copper. Eventually just going to get rid of one of these a minute seems like a lot of effort to maintain the old system. [49:22] On the making money thing sold it i guess i guess because it much most people bothered switch. And member it now this is it totally to built in throttle for their back will not work, cuz if everybody was on gigabit their back Burns their back bones than saturated sister the built-in filter for the backbone and then people who each of a gig, or do you have to get your ass off again today, set up, taking plugged into right its Upstream right. It's fast once you get to the backbone at things will slow down. Yeah so it's just a little office in my neighborhood and the Beast labs and then, but anyhow it's interesting that these list of the Surfside DSL access manager. They end up with 1:35 different devices they put in my house. [50:41] A lot of a lot of Hardware okay. [50:48] Teacher i never thought it have a peavey are waiting on pier cuz they include that that's your channel's because i got channel that's your cable so i can get a sports. You stream sports well i suppose i suppose but he can't expose you can do them some of the for twenty dollars a month. To get all this for my biggest and you can record that I'm happy to pay for it I just wish it were more convenient. [51:14] Suppose i get some sort of online service now they have a pal account i could probably just rim of many were now cant so i don't really need any of this she's come to my fire got the stick will not even that, what does what are using for display for your dumb TV a dumb TV okay that's, they put in three boxes. So there's a few want sports sports sports is the only thing I watch I watch live. [51:53] Super Bowl commercials I don't know why you would record it, but this ticket comes it's the way it is I don't really want to court a baby I want to pause it maybe want to start a little later when I get home and fast forward it through it or whatever but those are incredibly minor I want to watch sports live. Yeah I like the way we watch the hockey game last week better beer, fluid and mrs casey like at the rings got the arena that's just all old school techno stupid three extra boxes of my house and if they just give me an account that hurt that work to their app which they probably did yet then why would i, I'm commercial because I have business at home so it's it's the same price or less that they give different boxes so once I get back from Australia puppy switching. I'm on freenet I like freenet good service etcetera free that doesn't let you switch what do you mean. [52:50] They'll stay on your existing copper. Now you can become a free night member for free. That's what the whole concept was but back it up i expect at some point they will allow the. Resellers to sell fiber as well but I'm not the first one to ever get fiber so I assume they're just delaying it so they. Don't have to buy a buddy of mine office next door he got income fill for 5 months ago right so. [53:33] They're just delaying as long as possible I'm sure it's for technical reasons. Okay this is again from the hundred and one are you shouldn't track milly should fired one whiskeys to tie to tie before you tried okay a quick glance around the shells it any decent specialists retail were confirm. There are quite a few different mccallum's mcallen's is that the one and not the other mcallen's okay color. [54:13] Dramatic dark mahogany Richmond. The. [54:34] There's definitely a penis taste. Powerful Sherry yes absolutely why not some smoke very very little smoke chewy Vanilla Fudge shirt spicy glazed I mean definitely the Sherry really does come up, that'll just, but it comes up very well to me you can definitely tell this is Sherry cask, enjoy that okay you know we should have that kinda late now which is videotapes recording this show no one ever gets mission cappy more in two minutes so i pick two minutes of it and it, very round and consistent some smoke hints and classic take notes. [55:18] Trike fruitcake having that food taking us to it, this is an expensive bottle is now because they were victim around success so they ran out basically and they took all this is from not available in our Market. Play put it in New York L A Las Vegas few other markets London Tokyo where people will pay exorbitant price of quadruple the price because it is it is i could other than that there other whiskeys has good the coastline as it has good butter yeah so, it's not like 50 or shot in Vegas basically yeah. [56:09] Alright that's all I got that's all that's all that is an awesome Whiskey on the Rocks we will talk to you later by the way my name is Dave so drink. These are the days I know I know.

[0:45] So episode 91 yeah today is what October 22nd it's election day here in Ottawa Ontario, Ontario Municipal elections yes and I will be able to vote because of his recording. We could sure, okay so we've got a lot of things to do this is to no bro to look, wasn't two weeks that's a bit of a record forest but is different some housekeeping need to do hey guys what about the word of the week, David do you want to call for the work I do alright what do you have about vote.

We need make bumper okay feature the week and now the picture of the wave thinkative the feature of the week, o'clock support so you get this with the fall update so what we're calling, 18 H2 or they're calling 1809. [2:38] The Windows 10 2018 Fallout has a feature called Cloud clipboard, keep the history of items you cut and paste with the option to sync those saved items to other devices, this device is not just other windows that's right and yes snipping sketch app also makes it easier capture screenshots that annotate and it sure those as well it's rights so stupid scratches a what. It's a Widow's yes but what does it replace the old Snipping tool, is the old pocket moye luis to call it the fuck am i guess yes so we have an actual no see video on how to use the clock support an article on it that's the future week i wanted to host fifty trimming. Otherwise use email the same thing a lot more ask people questions same question, non be nice to have that somewhere in the face buffer and just use it regularly be nice basically macro keys for the gamers and things like that. [3:38] So that is the future of the week everything else want to say about that David, all right onto news story of the week so we have a lot of time we thought we'd actually organize news little bit better for you well that is Paul Allen who is the co-founder of Microsoft, so a lot of people don't know that Paul Allen was the co-founder of Microsoft actually he's the guy that. That convinced Bill Gates to drop out of school and join him at. At Microsoft was about Microsoft with a dash micro - soft use writing software for the Altair, and he stole Nicole Nicole founder but I think you left me the founder but he was the first one there employee one Kia resigned from Microsoft in 1983. [4:39] Is on the board obviously since he owned many shares i think of in the nineties yeah he, he started Microsoft. And he resigned it 83. He had play struggled with cancer, for a long time for a long time but Microsoft went public maybe 6 and he still maintained a lot of his owner, so that's how I became a billionaire and went on to do all sorts of things he created on investment firm called Vulcan. [5:09] Had a lot of funding of space space Ventures, what is the name of his company to straddle arch okay and then of course he owns the co co. Guy in Seattle Hill did he actually bought the Seahawks because they, dog is looking at moving the California tonight. So Seattle Sounders Major League Soccer and lots of things like that. So sorry to see him go we did a lot for technology did a lot for the world as well as the pacific northwest quite the philanthropist ask as well as visionary you so so have a moma sounds. [5:59] Not too long or else our editing software will do weird things to the do it but the hat's off to you Paul. [6:06] Alright David our next group of news items of all around Microsoft Windows swallow the first one. [6:19] Maybe it should start with me because I have heard there are some people still have. [6:25] Price of Microsoft believes it's solved the issue and they've released it to Insiders, to test out whether it does or doesn't have anyone to lost data during that first wave of roll out there working with them to get some data recovery done that's right so that's good news but still kind of scary that it would happen kind of slow though I mean where, i haven't seen the update take this long to get to the people who seek it, great so we got a lot of new stores around this update so other issues with the 2000, the October 2018 update is HP users are reporting a blue screen of death you have an HP I have one in the back over there were given to me by a client for specific work tasks well that won't be running Windows because I know the client yes it is not running Windows 10 I'm helping them get to Windows 10 but it's not running Windows 10 now also are you at another October update issue you want to talk about, the weather were sound issues with the october oppose that's sound with intel drivers intel as intelligence which early my cause does not have if, so you couldn't you didn't like that ad yeah yeah yeah I don't like being made fun of, will be better for okay okay so then to tell us that the sound issues or just certain intel drivers that there are some issues and you they for this to drivers so really who lisa drivers intel or microsoft. [7:54] I'm not sure so might but they are not release my understandings it until shipped bad drivers to Microsoft in Microsoft Excel. [8:02] That's nice so somebody gets a fail somebody gets a pat on the back. Knowing it's pat on the back because he should have released on that testing them, get well intel such a minor platform nobody really uses intel here different windows ten right so. Are most will run arm chips yes right. [8:21] Despite all those walls. Is running on how many day a hundred million. Device is not 700 in the latest at nine billion devices map, either time showing there was a cylinder, about to seven hundred and they recast it to seven hundred million when they stay. Yeah cuz we're in Windows phone so that, that's not exaggerating at all right get so thank you the 700 million an interesting number because you look at the, download Windows device usage I think windows, Windows 10 is what about 46% of all windows devices, and is that what it is I will take a look really quickly you talking David keep the boys and girls all the chain. Okay so it's it's what happened we don't need to get back to your numbers right and all made up and down all the time so the last I read was at 46% Windows 10. [9:46] Guess Windows 7, and as Windows 7 approaches end of life, 20/20 less than 16 months from now. Well that's a little bit more than 16 months from now, you'll see a lot of those machines and most of those I would expect a corporate as well as, will you have a lot of people that problem, really in a good position. Carrie runs better than just having the same Hardware anyways so, corporation so what of my quite corporate clients very few worker, completely converted to Windows 10 I had a meeting today very large government Department looking at close to 50,000 devices, right now I would expect less than 20% of the federal government Canada which means over. Hundred thousand devices of color lean large i wouldn't i wouldn't, Apple government it's easy to pick on the table I find with my customers about talk about what I know so I I don't think it's unreasonable to expect sometime next year to pass 800 million easily what they hit a billion or not anytime soon I don't know, yes yes so yeah it's not out of the realm of possibility just not in the time frame that Terry predicted. [11:15] Okay so that we talked about more and more is more I had a friend whose name was less in the Easter clam less is more. [11:32] Me that we got so less is more because us with, ew version coming in the spring i just finish talk about the fall update definitely he got pulled nobody has yet but that one some people do but, 1981 which is the shorthand for the Virgin coming out, 2019 and 1903 whatever you want to call it yeah we cuz they haven't officially named it yet until my tough names it, can we calling it 1981 they're allowing to uninstall, more of the Bumble apps to scrape corporate customers just don't like that stuff about her computer I feel needed or they replace with something else so things like grooving paint 3D anymore, and things like that but now, elevated Sprint 3D remove paint 3 Skype was already there tips and weather but now the list is getting longer so, little bit more control less is more, the theme for that item that's much better way to work this face back then deleting files. [12:54] Go to frisco okay how's your service go handling david it is good it is good i have a primary computer. [13:02] With cop monitors and then I have this which I just plugged into my Surface docking station so it has a couple mother's and for the. All of the things um doing. [13:14] Often documents to in were processing surfs the web it is working. Like a real computer. Yes I got a little lens cap right now so as long as it's the battery the only problem I have with it is my hands are too large and its batteries too small. Surface news from Microsoft got a new, its new from where upgrade call of that. [13:44] Thank. It's to text if the device is plugged in, if its plugged in pad and above fifty percent it allows it to deplete its battery discharge, who gets to 50% it tries to maintain it a 50% level. This isn't for everyone I don't like my battery 50% I usually I don't panic but if I'm at that situation before I charge it, but my machine hero and they say the battery will last longer they don't me they mean that life expectancy of the battery over a Year's yes versus in your daily use remember that garage project was built into a metal kiosk. That can be plugged in 24/7 all the time. Then it doesn't match the battery died that's cuz you can't put it, it doesn't run directly off the AC Mains for UPS, not all kind of but don't run directly off the of the sea mains of this not. The third. I'm like 20 cell system it's always Dawn nobody is a Surface but that's too expensive. [15:11] And Brandy situation where they have a strap down to account or something like that, so I'll leave it here I have it 94 the time it's plugged into my dock here, I don't know what I love is if I could tweet that maybe not 50% maybe 60 or 75% maybe you can read when you free the firmware update will take a lot I will definitely do that. So they're they're planning having for surface goes well as others as well but that that's good news for people have an old surface, Pro 3 like I do still works great, music daily at work okay here's something interesting. Do I take this one sure the PC market is flat but surface is the top in the top 5 computer pins which is not surprising. [16:00] Well it's else would there be well you can guess the top two number one is heavy HP, right number to open the case for Last 5 Years. [16:11] Number 3 is Apple, now little lenovo okay and i wish it would be spicy or number one for this is corporate well this is quarterly sales for eight so, this is based on Q3 which ended at the end of September okay alright so. In that time frame hp was four point five million units sold. So I'm not sure if that counts, make sure it doesn't go no were not slim talk, Microsoft Surface device is only .6 million per quarter. [17:00] What's the number 5.6 million / 4.5 yeah 3 times smaller than, they're still number five and guess what they dropped guess who they bumped from the V Spot. [17:15] Kickass amazon now hugo they'll love another make pcs google makes pieces. Crumpets and who do they drop through the truck i believe its a acer. [17:33] Bunker oasis isn't six this passengers okay. [17:42] Totally won't catch apple anytime soon and well let you know how they were catch apple. Apple would just continue to be an action which they've been doing for quite a while, so i was reading an interesting article from denver be know that would the central. [18:08] Scarf, so his article entitled Microsoft is right not to clean windows 10 Pro with Surface Pro and here's why and I'll do them, I don't always use more of a consumer guy and I'm more of an Enterprise guy and a lot of times I said I could see that for consumers but not for the people that I deal with on a regular basis, but this isn't for the people that you do with a regular basis. If you look at it if my clients would want Windows 10 Pro with their surface devices and they would get it right so here's the thing Microsoft bundle of license with no ass with its device and the biggest reason that the new copy of the Surface Pro 6 excetera, what's cheaper than the equivalent surface device at the previous launch. Is mostly due to two things 1 the Intel Graphics chips. No longer included with the i7s in. [19:17] Not bundling window Stanford Oaks about $100 extra to bundle that right and, Hillwood people with all sorts of things you get with Pro but most consumers don't need it so what's happening is consumers that were running the machine as a standalone or small business person that doesn't have an Enterprise they can't so they don't have to join, right right you don't have things like i privy you don't have things like. Enterprise data protection fetch i think you need a dinner price for anyways but what do the description. [19:56] I don't have to beverage well because bit locker for him but he, eat that and some either really versions of tanner maybe it was a that was not included in the home edition and now it is still and again i was his pro so that you can people so it people definitely need to have their device encrypted. They said nobody needs to die had a domain it home before, thank. So is that so it brings the price down and now get let's talk about it education, an enterprise most in apartment no have enterprise give it any ways and they, take the skip protocol right to Enterprise right other putting that on the same with schools really good price, there's there's different ways, is she in an enterprise clients to buy surface devices and get, pos they need if they want to but i can most enterprise idea with already have me a and we replace with on it. [21:11] That work pro in the pro not including pro yeah that's confusing people yes it was a good idea at will he claim the station in call with justin pro honest and for the skull to this tonight key before it. [21:29] Ferrite last piece of news at our surface category it's not really surface related but it is of course of our eight. So the first. [21:42] Windows on arm on a Snapdragon 850 is launched the first of the first mainstream guess who did it, Samsung of course so now there's anything you're right I did a review of one of the Samsung tablets while ago right. Was just off the have this or game keyboard like my act like i pad does and it was just nothing at all like the surface with kickstand and so i'm looking at here in his kickstand. [22:18] Well of course so if you combine that with an with battery life of a c eight fifty this might actually be an awesome dress it could be sleeping in review unit, yeah right so size is it in us. 2 and 12 inches a 12-inch version of it, could be quite the strong competitor to surface pro to come to the pen and q house with the penalty for not about okay so that's it for surface news, with who put the categories of news. [22:57] So Microsoft has joined, in cross play something over sixty thousand patents left they have in the open invention network so in the past microsoft is charged, Android and Linux vendors a licensing fee, write for things like file systems like exit in the order to be over there patents were if you want to read this file format you want to talk to Samba or whatever they charge them, and so the oan the open invention that works groupme, 2000 + companies in the world that have agreed to cross lights their platform crosslight licensure patents, for use by the Olmec system and a lot of people said yeah Microsoft you really not a supporter of open sores because you're still making money off of it right so that's well you're just playing it lip service to make Samsung pay them lots of money, MMA for people to put their software on their phones and stuff get hard negotiations so Microsoft looks like they're backing off from that, set be set. [24:14] And the last piece of news for microsoft this is the so much news, but it's really a sign of the times do you want to do I take this one you want me to take this, Microsoft released their what they call. [24:32] Roxy statement so this goes out to, before they do their urine results don't get your holders and things like that so they close their books that closed back in June, and that's part of that they have the proxy statement witches information that goes out to shareholders and, what is they showed how they compensate that's interesting is there a senior executives so total compensation sachin adela was only twenty six million water park in, like he's done so much for that yeah. Yeah they're getting a bargain. It's finally morning me last year but that's only 20%. Yes Valerie only 7.46% of that so he didn't even make a million bucks in salary wow. Cash and Cynthia will talk about that but here's the interesting part so how are they, how about for a 26667 percent is commercial crowd Revenue, and Commercial Cloud subscribers right so. [25:50] Just lives but commercial clogged right that is that is that's pretty much everything. Monthly Windows 10 device activations active device active okay. [26:05] And for temperate slept percent ten percent we just have is love percent should understand but ten percent can they just place the number little yet why, so what we're looking at here is six main categories all the other performance metrics and incentives for the senior staff at Microsoft, I rose up to that man consumer post sales monetization gross margin, LinkedIn sessions and then the last one does Bill Gates like his new surface surface, that's that's is that not I don't see Xbox there text boxes consumer postell's, oh okay so less than 11% so be less than 5% it would have been pulled up LinkedIn that's interesting. It's not this is just how they compensate this is not where their revenue comes from now but if they want to be this is where they want people spending their time right, have everything so I thought that was really interesting one of our offices here offices typically under commercial Cloud revenue and subscribers where you would think they'd be out there, cloud in Cloud I mean 66 we do we really didn't need, go be alright so that's it for Microsoft news. [27:21] Alright so now we've got some mixed news in the first one's kind of Windows related but not really okay I put it separately could left in the windows music and. Chrome seventy while from really moves quick does not getting should gets lots of, lots of versions out every year and we don't hear about it we don't hear about deleting your data or anything like that but. [27:45] Chrome 70 on windows 10 will now rusts, pwa Progressive web apps whatsappw, pwa is an application written to web standards typically using HTML5 another web standards but when it runs it doesn't look like it's in a browser. [28:07] CEO of the address bar disappears, is that full screen experience and i can have features that you would expect of apple, accessing local resources working when you're not connected yes about this before but never run Windows 10 the only way to do this in Windows 10 up until now was either through Microsoft Store app, what did you say we're talking about well with PW ways and PW is running in Chrome now. [28:52] I would anybody ever write the double up and what did you say this was, just finally on the cock so let's read a bar podcast pwa, podcast Windows universal windows podcast cannot become doesn't work, it's just another nail in the coffin I mean universal windows i mean what's the whole point of so they can run windows phone and what does the top or its okay so another piece of news that i'm not sure we talked about be held back with it is that our last last piece of other kids though okay Apple has an event coming up on October 30th. [29:41] And they called it there's more in the making. [29:45] And rumor is that it. For creatives and that they'll be a new iPad Pro and umax. [29:57] Was that supposed to be, just before Halloween Just Before Halloween excellent so when we talked about that little while ago you said you're how does Microsoft catch up to Apple. But I will keep doing what you're doing and innovate right right, Innovations overrated you have to find what other people do and then do it. Microsoft innovated quite a bit like the elevation I want other organizations picked up on that same Innovation Incorporated it all the sudden it was popular yeah. So that's it for now. [30:34] Music. [30:42] Alright babe that you actually have something that you want to talk about Rants and Raves. Bit of first world problem i have with that is so are. Phone provider put fiber down my street and wants to sell. Gigabit fiber unlimited quite a reasonable price sure what's wrong with that. If you cancel out of it they want to charge you $500 if you cancel out of it the end of before 3 years. Good luck collecting do you have any other services with them. Good luck collecting taking put me out just like it i really wish phone companies would stop doing these were tactic this like you know, maybe after a year or something but to it when they give you a phone yeah sure you have would have cancellation fee but when they're just hooking up the internet to your house and the fibers already there that running it to you, no they ran the fiber down down my street that I got my lawn dug up that which is fine but now I have a better piece of. Turf at the front so I lied I should looks a bit off now but still I don't care last year did you convert to it. [31:53] $72 for gigabit yeah it is not bad at all to very good price. Okay so it's my first prom that's your first will pro all right now we have in other statement we like cover, what is Microsoft Microsoft and Amazon house Google become the next Android overlords, for whatever why would, well first off let's talk about a couple of things old back so back in the. Can this the summer in july i believe, Google was there and they were. Told Dad to pay 5 billion dollar fine from the EU now what does that call about what were the ideas. What was this what was this. Vision against about set to do multiple things the google play store the license that yeah and in what third parties have to do in order to. [32:59] To use Android successfully right so Google has to stop, modeling applications in Android phones that's one part of it. So how are people going to get those applications for number of stars. The main applications like Gmail and Google Maps and things like that or not, normally available that way only in their store or built-in with the app and then updated to the store right and so they're also preventing companies from using other search engine, and from sellick fork versions of android. [33:38] So now they've decided they're going to comply with the ruling while the appeal. But they're also going to charge Williams $40 per device. Wait so you could have the free version with their store or you can have the non free version. Set the fuck. It's the apps weeks forty dollars for phones with the charging right. So I don't know all the details yet but you'd looks to me like at $40, Hill Auto thousand-dollar phone for your bucks it's not that big a deal you can bury the, so what's included the Google mobile services and. Other pieces like that which really are at the heart of the AI base next-gen mobile phone. [34:39] Where are you in its context sensitive and all of my, 40 box are $200 phone is quite, yes so talking talking about Emerging Markets or lower-end devices, the Samsung phone that most people buy not the current one the one that's going to whatever, S5 and who knows what has it and it works just fine so why why why we talkin about Amazon and Microsoft will because in order to do these kinds of things in order to provide a store and service millions of devices around the world and provide you next generation services you really need to have. Worldwide usar footprint. [35:45] And Google's Google's number three player that space but nobody else really has the cloud shops to really provide that kind of service both Amazon and Microsoft have already built. Christoph doesn't amy's android apps or will they have the microsoft app store but it had a little platforms before, get her for our t it had it for yo windows phone etcetera etcetera, and was Ameren they've already got that networking on Android so, order it to collect twelve prisoner got the tool set sleep the built over hundred and wraps. [36:28] To put in my name so what are our names are there any are also i am size are out looks. Okay but we can take a look at that nuts for whatever reason and. Microsoft, Amazon could possibly go to load or they can go together they could go together and there's a. Got a lot of synergy there both in seattle wa what about sam fun. Seven isn't clean the fuck no true but they have a huge number devices and they would much rather not have, so maybe we'll go messing with them so maybe they partner Samsung or LG device manufacturer will come the ideas they build a platform that have and have the device manufacturers start to move to them right. Yup that's gets just a concept it's possible it's doable what you could. These sort of nude Chris Wright Microsoft could make their own version of Android that has all the raps is that called, and they could write and they could remove. I cook email they could remove chrome and they could add hood rich crum that piece of wood that sell and they could look like windows so here's the thing can i get a couple pics of three but with this maybe i won't because i think i kind of assume that the local three, HELOC to the Play Store I thinks. [37:53] If you needed to finish my new phone and not make your decision based on what I don't need any phone be here ranting on these, this podcast I don't know if you want to do fun. Alright so I just thought about it a couple weeks ago. Anything else will talk but it no i'm good are you sure. We've been going now for almost 40 minutes 38 minutes 20 seconds more than we should show up and drink whiskey all right. [38:24] Thanks come to our podcast and keep your stick on the ice.

So what have you brought this time is it in the book, also I didn't want to risk ebooks. Well what do you think about Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban to room which is. [40:31] Hearing that poor david he write you not. [40:37] I'm a rib means red or sandwich. [40:43] Are there that's a bit too much. If you want to read a drink, it is a red color is that you're the one that's in the book. [40:59] I didn't want okay okay what number is this one. Number 46 is there an order to it, play me as long term owners. Mainly the McDonald's family sold out to the French luxury Brands marketing house Louis Vuitton, in 2004. Entices some comment yeah, like what you call those are rose a wine color. [41:45] Truth is good more complex than the aberfeldy we had last time slight yes yes definitely much stronger Taste of slight slight smokey. [41:56] 2% vs something would be obnoxious being like 20%. [42:11] And my smokey like like a good smoked meat sandwich smokey as opposed to a guy under fast smokey yes. [42:25] Marketing so color Rich warm reddish gold. Taste great balance a complexity of Rich fullness fruit notes chocolate underlined delicate sweetness taste a great. [42:54] Randomly open it I open up the page of the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban Port finish. Currently opened it to it wow wow is that something or what that is something so it's finished in Port casks which gives it that red in that sweetness. In the Heat of the 92 which is quite nice complexity The Crepe notes. [43:22] The grape Oak balance he talks about so that's the, Jim Murray's whisky Bible so going to talk to you about my phone is getting, what's wrong with it does everything I need I'm just tired I want something and what you up new battery Capri battery battery and something worse than the phone with the better the sex so yeah that's working for me. Is a 6X at Palazzo to the Crowne Plaza. Either okay with my sm someway beats a life of, but her cameras otherwise is remarkable right, am I supposed to be amazing cuz of all the software they've added so they say we don't need 5 cameras or six cameras rare Weber okay we got one but it does the job because they added a ton of, and even if they're also they're doing interesting things like assuming that you're going to shake a little bit and, and actually taking multiple angles of the safe shot and getting multiple day like the HDR types that I might have been shaking before but now I'm quite smooth, we never said vote. [44:37] If you know what i've and it's opened they will let me vote i drinking they won't let me in the police station though they won't let you into the point fish if your truck did you vote, how they want let you vote if your so we know our mayors essentially going to be s that's not me an issue i'm not in a ward where we're someone's gonna be claimed, but there's definitely am definitely not an award where there's a real race either so Jeff Lee Pool winner award. [45:06] It is this enough guy few things he says are stupid. I want to like him but he said a lot of stupid things like what he's talking about things that are actually interesting and make sense for the greater good. [45:32] Smiths Falls and Cornwall it totally would like a GO train system guess what, Snoopy the mayor of Economics he be the mayor of Ottawa. Not the mayor of Gatineau not the, i am on not there smith's fault up near cornwall or any of these other companies talking about the how does. The people that would benefit from this enough people live in city of Ottawa. I get zero benefit from that go to Smith Falls and go to the Chocolate Factory find yes but you can't buy there. [46:06] Oh okay so I know you talked about the converted the Hershey factory the Tweed Factory, sure but the real benefit is not you going to the Chocolate Factory okay I'll look at the Oompa Loompas, so no benefit the people that was a yay let's go for this, for the most part can't vote for, cuz they don't live in the city so we'd be be like talking about hey I'm going to run for, I don't know let's just be something so I got to run for school board trustee and my whole platform is I'm going to give women in Saudi Arabia expanded civil liberties best prime minister. It doesn't matter but I still can't see on the platform of amalgamating school parts. [47:07] But guess what they don't get to choose that yet. Got interesting ideas that for the greater good make sense but if, I don't see why a train makes any sense actually, yeah I'll tell it it's like Trump voting today I'm going to make the Mexican buildable build the wall, Becky has any control over that maybe doesn't know but but anyways, no politics at Citrus local politics what kind of reach do we have on the show when I was listening to India, was driven in ottawa card that we do but anyways. So that's the that's interesting there, is a speaker laptop still running, okay so anyway so that all being so go for it so get your in brand new it'll be a better camera than you currently have. I'm so with you on your trip. [48:25] You will not need to take and if you do take care of the camera you will not take them to other cat but the moments in time where those cameras are not easily available I eat pretty much all of the time. [48:38] You will have a better phone, a better camera will it take me to other devices with me taking my five-year-old DSLR. [48:55] Five time show me that you want taken out for the wildlife were going to wildlife excursions and things like that you download them they a really the really is such a small amount of time okay sure why carry it. Are kangaroo pouched. [49:12] Alright other thing I'm taking is a GoPro Hero 7 black, for underwater but also they've got this gimbal this thing that they called the smoothest that he shot ever like it won't get me shake it is stupid or is it something they can get, lost or stolen at carrot it weighs like. [49:34] A lot you're not used to it I'm here used to it I've never seen you with it. [49:41] I'm used to it I'm pretty good with a zoo you are but you just still won't pull it out that much. That we took at night to her out in the jungles in cans in Australia. The camera would be of no, that was the time we happen to take it I guess pretty good low-light but, but I'm thinking when I go to eluru and no no no no, set out at all we did is here thinks we couldn't even see thing so you can carry the camera all night long i don't know i'm looking for sunrises and sunsets on a tripod over the blue and, things aren't beautiful pictures of that already. [50:26] My family um you're gonna get your whole family up for a sunrise so you could take a picture of the. Give me a little bit with that you dreamed of beautiful colors to study the pictures could potentially be beautiful exactly. [50:49] Know that we have a few good ones you at the office yet like like spend a thousand dollars from a canon camera that's what it's gotta fit your pocket we got them we got them for a one we've got a sony. Michael Sony camera I like that black with you is more important thing people carry around cameras that are worth like. I missed my biggest worry it doesn't get used. The kids love using it, play around with that mouth ago so the fishing by youngest son he's really have a disk phone can he isn't okay phone d just windows phone yeah oh i'm sorry that we often to windows phones have good cameras. Yes but it's not at you through the phone has, iphone se which is a camera. So the kids will use it more and it does good video is very good video actually. Yes of course it does better video that Annie can't pocket phone. [52:05] I'll see once I get the iPhone 7 Hero 7 black, we'll see if anybody sees any sales on the hero 7th let me know. [52:26] Should we rush out. [52:36] We could do that if you want that's fine so we can meet somewhere near your place yeah I feel like wings. Now go to Lexington if it's not wing night there I think it's wing night I'd like to think there's three other places of Lexington is right by one of the Corner Diner used to be Corner Bar and Grill. [53:02] Churchill's is that we used to go to watch hockey games yes we've been want to so it's right down the street right near there we'll go to Lexington or whatever you prefer.

I'm David Smith and I'm calling Smith and we are the surface, is episode one david ninety sh ninety if why's that wall two weeks ago we recorded episode ninety but we had. A problem that didn't need to meet my lower body a standard right and then the even episode ninety was delayed for multiple reasons feel dr there was a tornado that knocked out power heals your means, too long didn't read okay this is so that there was a tornado. [0:47] Delayed a whole bunch of things we lost power in our city I still don't have heat in my office, HVAC unit got blown off the building also two trees down nobody died here but they're six tornadoes a touchdown lot of Destruction and a lot of it was around $0.02 around my office and there was places in the city without power for up to 5 days i just prayed that could of solomon trail goes through a district substation right, but, tomato sauce with the week of ignite we're supposed and we were supposed to do dailies from ignite we have no power we were dealing with other issues, so we didn't do our foreign correspondents Rafael and the boys formula coffee clutch. We weren't able to connect with them so we didn't covered nightfall not there's a get well tomatoes fault, the tornado then we did actually record an episode that fell apart it was a awesome recorded it that way from eight with with tactical issues and then call and when had a death in the family that you look that so, and how long since your last episode. [2:09] I'm about 4 weeks about 4 weeks August 22nd August 22nd okay and the last time we recorded this we actually had Whirlwind as our word of the week but hey guys what about the word of the week, but what about this week's worth of the week I should be different I thought it was tornado was her word of the week tornado Whirlwind I can't remember, about leather leather is fine corinthian leather in corinthian leather yeah another test get there all, sure alright that don't touch the leather. Okay okay I'm not sure how we're going to work that in so for those of you that are new to the show where the week is a drinking game if you hear us say the word of the week you get to take a drink of your favorite beverage I'm actually Thursday if I have a sip right now. [2:57] So leather all right now. Where do you want to start David do you want to go right into a product with you our last episode I talked about the surface go that I tried in New York City, come, I see you've got something that you have a service call if you have a Surface tablet that had a crack in the screen that I happen to buy the extended warranty on and, they don't just fix it they just give you the money back or so I had, money burning a hole in my pocket so I picked up one so which model to get. Eight one twenty eight i think it would be silly to buy the four k for sure the forty-eight would run while but eventually sure is that the one with the sst years at the one with the. The best hard drive healthy ssd1 called UCM EMC, communication not buying these things for performance correctly so you didn't get the Costco on the cost going to make it out quite nicely, I only have 4 gigs of memory 128 storage I'm not sure what type of storage so that's it ideal combination but my reef my rebate of $330 wasn't Acosta how much of the total amount. [4:18] It's about $800 - 300 Canadian Canadian dollars. What's. Had its ups okay to tell us about what he thinks first impressions on but we didn't do it you did do it on boxing anything but what you numbers up so it is the it's the exact same for form factor as my apple. IPad 2 which is probably for 5 years old exact same Corners almost the exact same screen size the exact same thickness which is. [4:57] So you a little bit odd does it looks more like an apple from up front so you think that they bought a bunch of refurb to iPads and slammed slammed surface bits in them yeah, yeah it's a conspiracy, really the only thing I can see, they should have put a bit of extra weight in that and add the battery last a bit longer. Set the fuck up, okay not mistaken what was that Neva Neva scan Beacon, caca the eighties so any i can get use to the keyboard, yeah you know for when it does it slot better than any touch typing on screen would be so i don't think that's really a challenge with the keyboard for say that microsoft dismayed okay i think it's just a problem with the size of a ten inch form factor, so really there's no point it's. [6:14] Not a must-have for sure cake so how much will you say the battery is not fantastic how much you getting out of it like four hours really, real well that's disappointing very disappointing. [6:30] God wanted to look it up like that whole day out of my $69 Canadian $69 Kindle Fire HD. [6:41] I can get more than that have an iPad I can have more than that out of my circle you definitely get more of an iPad Surface connector so you know when you're at your desk, you can get your external monitors bigger keyboard now that really bad right here and I'm like the new Surface spices for Microsoft it as a USBC will charge it will well, what was so I charged it with my regular cell phone adapter, and it charged so I think the fact that I charged it all was good okay but I have more powerful you, PC device adapters light comes with the laptop and the docking station for Adele and those will go. Those will charge quickly I'm sure but I was surprised like this with the phone adapter it was actually charging. To be hand if you're stuck somewhere as earned don't have lives in glass for the new discharging. I just turned it on and left okay I wouldn't be surprised it would just break even fill this wouldn't even make up across Continental flight, battery wise. Alright so that's very very disappointed, when does a pass or fail. It depends on the surface pen to surface, bail bondsman someday, buy one as soon as I get my TSA check but just very disappointing. [8:10] It is quite expensive to so really if it was around $500 with a keyboard instead of 800 with keyboard. [8:19] I think that would bust my that i think what i'd rather do is buy a one of the news surface laptop i think three pilling from a whole ji at for on like three hundred dollars for yeah at four and on on on on at the top and. If the i seven or is that they don't i nine yet so now okay. Alright so that's it for that show we move on, new story of the week now you didn't mention what your, keep or case is made out of hearts wanna find corinthian leather is or so ago can them thirsty here. [9:00] Gonna suck so in that big long in from while we were away there will i lose. The conference the us there was Microsoft ignite Microsoft ignite for the first time in quite a number of years no surface Miss were there, so what did I say about that. All that introduce the new version of office that's basically a subset of officer sixty five four on perm customers when from cousin has a cute, what else did you go to breakfast so off the oven office twenty nineteen is now available for mac and pc. [9:38] Those of you that are not falling biscuits confusing the office three sets on a new one that you wanna have right write his office three sixty-five just been out for a few years and depending on what skew of officer sixty five you have the disk anyone for example you do not get an office pay you'll get any office off or, UCB online office off we don't get a local install office software so you have to go to the E3 or Business Essentials or business by mistake. It's like four bucks so you don't have to have it but my mistake would not be one of them yes right PC, example use water email so depending on which version of office to sixty five you buy you also get five per user five installs of microsoft office is close, Pro Plus father's claim Office 365 I believe in. [10:33] It's part of your license as long as you're paying your light your monthly license fee you have usage rights but what if you stop paying. Have you straight anymore that this is the perpetual license so for instance if you bought office, 2007 back in 2007 or 2008 or whenever you whenever you want it you could still run it that Microsoft support anymore it'll give you updates or anybody but you own it you can run it forever. Legally run it forever however office365 you stop paying your monthly you can't legally run anymore. [11:09] Talk a little bit about the differences so that's the licensing side of it right so office twenty nineteen is based on the feature set more or less that we saw in late spring early summer, in Office 365 Office 365 gets updated on a, randomly, hopefully not random well someone's got a plan but lisa mc maybe collectively sure so, features are the features come out regularly and it's always upgrading and it's really focused on integrating with the rest of the office to sixty five sweet, which is that online experience and that cloud experience not to say that office 2019 does, lie to connect a cloud services but. What, but Office 365 will keep getting more and more cloud looks to other services like yeah I after she learning and it whatever new functionality comes out in Office 365. [12:11] So that's one big piece of news and and what what's the next Feast well that's good news alright so, ex off now uses a i'll help you create a better presentation spreadsheets and things like that in the office apt to look at what you're trying to do it suggest a better way to present it. It's always been suggestions but now looks like yeah looks like you're trying to write a letter but a lot more though it's looking at the. Practices for presentations and spreadsheets and charts and things like that so be fun to try that out. I have a friend who's going to company that's focused on doing just that for businesses to make your presentations better so really like to have to take that I'd like to see what his thoughts are on it, so we can talk then we talk a lot the last episode yes the last lost. [13:17] I am, this allows you to have your virtual desktop and let Asher as opposed to having to setup terminal terminal servers are those her on hold on hold on, talk about sessions vs instances okay. Olden days or what people when using terminal server or what we on when i call have a session based computing you have a single wes, air by many users right right so they can all connect to it can like that, Mainframe concept and to be honest the first instance of this on Windows electrical twin frame and it was a modified kernel buys Citrix. [14:12] Yes and I thought it was a very clever. Back into the 80s that did this stuff on PCS to. A tarp for Dawson for a long time, we were talking about virtual desktops were talking about what, colloquially people call vdi VMware coined the term vdi virtual desktop infrastructure what it is maybe I were talking about multiple. [14:47] Dances so there be multiple virtual machines and i each person can x to one persistent or not, stop spread today appear and disappear maybe they're just there for you at the next. Get well Windows 7 or Windows 10 OS 8.1 if you really must each user gets their own or, whatever else you want to call this other words for that. That one machine with multiple users and that's a great Segway into our next item that will talk about but why is this important for the first time now. Windows 10 is available as a paid service directly from Microsoft and Azure and you can have, stop there so sorry technology change you could have always run, to bring your license and your license to allow you to do that night just by making us buy it and turn it off and not using it all sorts of things like that so. [15:57] Basically promoted desktops in someone else's Data Center, tornado outage here people are using that they can accept connect to edgerton woden. [16:08] Okay now the next one is Microsoft brings multi-user virtualization to, windows and office instances where each user gets thrown instance of now in Windows 10. You can use Windows 10 essentially as what we used to call a terminal server to have multiple users connect to Italy travel each have a session Windows 10 not Windows Server that's correct now why is that important David. Because Windows 10 Windows Server are very similar to each other. But not the same exactly so in the olden days, last month if you wanted to do session-based Computing yeah you would have to do it on a Windows server and it had it had present it has session Services right and remote desktop services that you would turn on and you would uninstall your software you have to jump through hoops to install off we're not big Hoops but you install software, and let people connect to it up Here's the catch alright. [17:14] When developers build applications for Windows and user Windows Windows 10 or Windows 7 that's a good example of say, Adobe Photoshop the developers built that they tested it on Windows 7 latest on Windows 8 the test on Windows 10 they got it logo certified, with all the criteria and then some sysadmin somewhere takes that app, add fries to shoehorn it on to Windows Server which is very similar but not the same, and it may or may not work and then you have to go through all sorts of remediation and things like that, application for certified to work with the remote desktop services but others were not so is very limiting. And you get sometimes really funky heirs. [18:01] And then gift because the cold is writ for windows ten and you try to run on windows server and may or may not work. [18:11] But my sister will definitely so now that's that's gone but secondly you don't have to worry about the cost Associated Windows server. [18:23] And and although there would be a conditional class here for extra license, but of course not. The whole server licensing right, how you could run a server on a desktop but if we all did. And a lot of small businesses are afraid of servers, a server that's, yeah that happened in your office before we're kilobit drive you places cuz people hitting afraid of service for so log but. [18:56] They don't work anymore exactly yes so that's the news about Windows 10 and. Multi-user virtualization as well as virtual desktop to similar related but different announcements. Okay alright. [19:19] Just after it night october second at with the west microsoft heads three three new i just for new. 1 2 3 updated products. So the first one they update it was the surface laptop and I'm very excited by that it has everything you'd want except USBC Port that's right. Is that believe there is one of LT1 block yes everything everything's available black. How's the way they will have a surface pro and black as well they have a lot, so yesterday the new laptop and its exact same time the Old it's just. No thinner nothing Cur and more powerful 1.8 times as powerful and you know the old one. Obviously it's not a power user computer in either case you probably want to go for Surface Book 15 if you need a lot of power but this would way way less Island it blows, no bother have really been any MacBooks in a while that's a little bar on the keyboard that changes now it's got touch, it's a touch screen David doesn't have a little touch banking. [20:44] Okay that doesn't have a high price of the macbooks yeah i got a high price not the summer has size similar person it then they brought a surface pro sex again has the lack of usb c, so interesting name. Because if it wasn't the five going to call it the five because it was really confusing cuz they're originally when they first watch that people may not remember but before the Surface Pro 3 there were two others. Dress made of leather leather. [21:24] Leather Burns front of them shirt, help just like wouldn't when television first came out nobody called it black and white television, and actually when colors I look good in whittwood color television came out what happened was, they started calling at color television to differentiate it from normal television which wasn't color right then sometime into the evolution of color television that became the new normal nice are referring to black and white television where that was the famous picture for manual transmission yes. But, I bought a couple but anyway then we're using it here for our soundboard aren't we so high five as we can hear it still works great but then came the Surface Pro 2 Surface Pro 3 which is finally I hit Surface Pro 4 also hit and then they went back to school to Surface Pro, if a candidate that makes the right of the original one didn't exist but as you can here it does exist pass yet so i'm gonna call that when the five to tell me about the six, again they have increase the power. Exact same case so you know this nice little folding not the back that you know the same keyboard 7 change any of that but it's just it's just faster and black races green and black. [22:53] But not small, it really small vessel life if they just increase the the quality of bezel that the screen but i mean it was harassment plus whatever if you know you have a nice mac avid nice, surface for whatever even a surface 3 when they're fantastic screens the app so what they're better. But back to the USBC the reason I don't I just like it it's cuz it's everything is just be coming in that USBC and it's it's just it's not that you need it in your bag all the time, it's just that they they could have put it in there but I guess they wanted to wait until. [23:29] Thunder bolts and everything and have all the standards out and no fuss no muss smell, with very conservative play which is Xbox better than what they did when the original Surface Book came out and it didn't really work too well right well there's been rumors that the, the EU might Force Apple to standardize on USBC and get away from their lightning connector on their phones on their phones. Which better than a while ago from you I think yeah. Okay sure it's a lot more so like I find the USB that was granted there more cheap vendors making USB C cables but you can still squeeze it and bend it right you can't leave Den. Lightning press the the shield around the USB C connector alright so what's next, what's next hell we didn't talk so we talked about those headphones headphones so I don't know why they made the headphones but they look really nice. [24:40] My kids want them but you know what the world headphones right 350 Us gift card so, so I told you the story about my son and his little adventure to the, Texas parolee satisfy the gift cards and stuff like that so I might buy some I don't know if that's only set to headphones lying around, my house at three set the good headphones hear about three or four sets a good headphones at home on opening the set the can of there's another. [25:12] Tell me about use it towards surface Co Staples surface got okay let's move on to. HP the says that, a leather case on the outside live there let. Find currently that is the case i just like to retire don't know it's it's on the outside like elka terror what of the stove is okay inside and, of course it's done to the computer it's made it way more efficient well hopefully that works, they get to him that i was dry clean only cuz leather that's true that's so i don't think we'll wipe which one of you this is is some. Happier in this computer is like 18 hours of battery life is just huge the thing that makes sense is if you're going to carry around a folio of some sort with it in it. [26:15] That it would kind of be the same instead of you would just carry the system without a case Okay so David. I want you skip the next item okay and come back to it's okay I took care of you on the 2nd next one. So what to expect in from the Windows 10 October 2018 update or what we're affectionately calling 1809 the thing here is when we wrote that article, it was a what to expect and then said we were 12, but something's happened since then David it's there's a new feature in Windows 10 delete your files saved increases the space, leaving for spite building fossil currently it happens fairly small situation did you know you can re direct your desktop gas to one drive yes i do that. Oh well I don't and apparently those are the people that might have been. [27:12] I got in there yeah. Well it's really hard for Microsoft recorded all these different vendors of different products and make sure that things work, but wait no no one derives from Microsoft Windows from Microsoft Microsoft I thought it was from Apple, don't know okay and then they got these people called insiders they're supposed to test all these things but I think they're getting paid too much cuz obviously they're not doing a good job at tested this stuff, so there's a couple things that are bit frustrating when is that they released it, to the slow ring in the fast ring like a week before pushing it out to everybody else they really didn't leave it a lot of time and there have been allegations that they have deleted some post from The Insider Hub or people that said this is the problem. [28:04] Right. Not Microsoft has no no no no variety variety disappeared, were they perhaps running the Hub on 1809 at desktop redirected, under what they go yes that must be what have, they're probably running in on a nice day, but, but the, it is it's very important to make himself feel good because you were there to help make things better have some people been reporting this and, you have the possibility that would be nasty all i have a great way to make the sex feel better house invite everyone to be an mvp ch. [29:13] Okay look up or who remember goodly this from when you and later i cannot stand okay. I know why you wanna skip ahead of the. Welcome to spread it out okay okay okay so we can cover two things they are going to move this to the end I'm missing so it's how it's made. So remember that we had a toast i'd toast made cover of with rob my surface book at river rock you or a toast a toast toast they have a leather one now okay okay so glue on case for your Surface Book, or yours but then what about on mysickers. [30:02] Turn on all you've what's the cuz i given why would i want another one i love the magnesium acted point, and wipe out and buy a will there's an a black surface laptop Surface Book yet but they will be and then why put it yeah what people are putting things they outside right why put stickers on your computer went when ice, if you only had a block magnesium, like this one, yes. By a lot you mean once in a blue moon you see one about more so than I did before they look like primer yes they do, and. Last piece of news so we talked about ignite of previous episode that we did get out the door we talked about the Apple announcements we talked about the Microsoft Hardware announcement, oh my goodness we should have led with that, guess not nothing to say okay, okay so is that it for a news that is. [31:18] Music. [31:26] Alright so that David you said you had something you want to talk about Rants and Raves Microsoft invited me to become Windows Insider MVP, good for you congratulations thank you thank you cut i am already windows insider mvp of cases problem. It's kind of seems like they've invited thousands and thousands baby hundreds of thousands I didn't get invite you didn't get an invite so there is at least a level of expectation but it's like. Kathy put in a query that says not existing like it what sort of criteria did they put in for that so. I am running Insider build immediate they did not immediately respond to my request for information, well as other people blogged about it and think like they is people are one explain about it but it just seems to me if it be nice if they invite insiders but the should put some care into the inviting. Okay so don't want to have a cake party invite too many people then there will be no point to it. [32:30] Okay that's my rent that's your aunt yes okay once the course then you can say well what who wants to be a member of a club that, heard any rumors from Microsoft will not from Microsoft but have heard one from Samsung and what would that be well Samsung says it's working on a foldable phone that we have tablets you can put your pocket sound familiar, maybe sides was the microsoft product andromeda and well damn it is the opera incident, will fit in your pocket again folded and you got a more screen real estate imagine someone makes foldable screens. People have a matching that's for quite a while if make full checked so. [33:25] Certainly be a lot of really cool concept of that but the only thing we've seen similar to that is i think alen oval made, computer that had for the keyboard it was basically a touch screen. And that really went nowhere so it's kind of a cool concept but. What will we see what that will really work I think we're looking for a whole new Computing Paradigm right now but I'm still not excited by the new phone Hardware out there, I want to get a new phone, I think I was not one out there that turns my crank. I mean really when you're looking for a phone that something that last a fair bit of time as is Handy. And then it is important and then everything else is just kind of like me at what point did the iphone and the and the. [34:17] The Galaxy start being awesome cameras that sticks on the iPhone, E46 with you know Microsoft Microsoft but everybody has unless you buy really cheap phone you have an amazing camera now you're going away or you could take it out the camera that you could just you could just take a phone when I get to get the S alignment take a GoPro, but you could not you can easily just a lot anyways so get fantastic diving so your phone's waterproof. No it's not it's a success on 7th and I can't take it down at the end. [34:56] But anyways that's like an OtterBox for it if I want to try but at some point so I'm going away from there if we can. Last year we went away I went to Alaska and I visited with Joel Jazz who was one of the hosts of the date of the pain the pain also known as, now I'm going to Australia where his co-host the Dane whereabouts I believe is Melbourne but it's not I'm going to leave his one of those two cities so maybe, I'll try to hook up with him now that they're podcast is gone quiet for a while back for you for me alright for them it interesting that they spam the pacific australia to alaska my can't take it much further within that know know if you can do a podcast with those sort latencies hear your good health okay alright. Anything else you want to talk about what is Microsoft Microsoft what. [36:06] This is for my sweet shows o know what of microsoft we kill the password, with its pathetic a rap or anything off I have not used passwords in quite some time for all any of my personal devices, heading to my work devices I use hello, I push token. [36:28] Go i'd be happy for a password manager i use a pass for batteries last pass right by rely on that heavily. But I don't use passwords that often except some my client systems so maybe passwords are on our way out that would be nice. But useful. Okay that was pretty lame what do you think all right so everything else I don't think so. Show's over showed over. My Follow the show on Twitter at surface Smith email the show at podcast. [37:19] Check out the show notes and leave a comment on WWE. [37:26] Help others find out about the show by leaving a review on iTunes. [37:30] Music. [37:39] Is it time for whiskey yet well the best part of the show it's always time for whiskey Cortana, alright so we started a new thing for whiskey the week segment or the universal whiskey podcast for the after-party whatever you want to call it. We're what's the name of that book they would we ready it's 101 whiskeys to dry before you die. Alright no pressure here no pressure. The first Whiskey In the book is what aberfeldy 21. Yeah that's the aberfeldy mayall i was looking at it in the mirror. Of you shaving with that bitch or i'll email know this is a gift actually but that is a gift for my birthday from my friend, and i dont know who is very generous over to give me this so we should drink it to what they say about never fell the well. [38:43] So I read this read this tonight so you shouldn't have messed up those numbers. Leonardo da Vinci. Brought the arabic number see your because the roman numerals work way too complicated they were and so with the simple system if you weren't able to figure. The whiskey were not tasting is is. It's by aberfeldy obviously the same one built by bloodpop however I'm color golden Amber what's your check, nose cream honey nose dried fruit will tell us about The Distillery tell us what they say. It's disturbing re hat ever feel like two hours model was built in, 96 to 98 by the Restless. Rest innovative and order from there all to do or brothers homos know that obama at all. I have lost my sense of smell. [39:58] I would say it's um for the sweet terminally. [40:10] Okay honey dark honey. Sweet caramel vanilla will the apple don't fall no no smoke no salt and small. [40:22] No iodine oh oh here we go igot to mention of it here. It may be easier to find the twelve year old version that's good. [40:34] This is a lot better and well worth the additional money exchange these really rounds out and deepens this with you that might be why i'm a little bit better. Different and round and round it up that you are calling cuz I've been age just a little bit longer to just a little bit longer okay so let's see if my little trick of any other water LOL. [41:03] Does make it sweeter a little bit more complex doesn't help with the nose now. [41:12] Son's hockey coach aston color day does your nose run your feet smell and your probably built upside down. [41:23] Nice I like this I like this but I wouldn't throw it out, it's decent I prefer something just a little more complex because we've been trying different things like bourbons and rice and stuff like that which do have a much stronger taste than this that we have. Filter pellets for a good solid. Oscar is with like a glenn live it plan that kind of style and standard highland okay. Find some plans to probably takes very similar for this and get well be happy with that jerk. But because of the single malt and expecting a little more character than this. [42:14] Santa hats not terrible so David. Describe to me what your favorite artist taste like something burnt. I just tasted a bit of burnt almonds with that know we were getting on and then that's why I said the word on this but a little burnt flavor that it was weird just so why don't you describe to me. What you're you're perfect with you taste, well I first of all you would get to the duty free store, have a dollar store dollar store in the gallon size and it would be $3 Canadian. When we when get gallons leaders okay we're size are. I definitely like a little bit sweeter than that so I I I think it's because of some of the Bourbons with your born baby. [43:07] Bizarro Bizarro you should put that in your business cards made with less subtle. I want a bit more Aroma I like the vanilla as I like the toffee I feel like a coffee or even or Burke caramel 15 to go shopping this. Needs to be a little rougher almost. Which is half the year here so so you don't like go to McAllen I left Macallan Sienna only as my year round, and I. [44:03] Like the dollar for dog can totally buy go to for that and then for winter whiskey and like a good let alone. [44:12] Which is a little bit smoke your little bit Peter a little bit salty air but not immensely so. Right now the mrs or to much i put them my covering that in the so once in a while thing, with a good cigar sure sure with you about actually today about whiskey that's what it's date one of these and now i'm up is dave smith on my caller id and he also it with my phone so. [44:43] I'm up on my phone and its. [44:50] 314 number is David Smith, thank with about whiskey yeah yeah v you have a clear think that we should call of dow acts without that was about a week tasting i bought at a at a charity auction last year nigga nine organize do of the cottages whiskey weekend at that the scheduling gods are just going to text you on that one they are they are if you give up the weekend idea and make it into the wednesday. Could be at a restaurant or something or. Someone's house just because people can stay over we can play cards late if someone's house is tough to have to fix guys stay over yes that's true. Wait until and if we have to have read it read the hotel people are going one in. [45:53] That's just double surprise, right right that's what that's easy to do at someone's house but not easy to do at a hotel at a hotel. [46:10] But i don't think that fixes the scheduling problems doing well not it does not to such push it off into the future was kaisha my xl make it and ice fishing weekend. S are skiing weekend we're screen lights up but then he won't come that far have you know aunts was a do. Besides drink whiskey like sorry that was white why would you need to do anything besides whiskey right exactly so. What are the state of its he fights with the foil wrapper worth over or or or or really, three yeah he is November 10th that you can party that weekend please can we just whatever you was getting at your party. Okay we got that that's possible the whiskey in sushi. [47:06] Okay could do that yeah yeah okay, possibility for sure when we do it before. Got to get some details on how long his tasting thing goes and whether you like sushi couple hours. We could do it in the afternoon and then make sushi with sharp knives okay but zombie bugs coming out of people's mouths. Yeah that's possible. [47:36] Will have to Institute a uber policy. Thought I'd like to do this up if if we're not in the cottage then November 10th is not a big deal we could do it at the sushi making party. [47:52] Yes but if we're doing it at your place and do it anytime. Write the bus to see me your entry in quick right but will you do to my house right, but again the whole thing is in people have to go home. We just instituted Uber coffee that's it I have to take a note. Or not drink and drive. That is true is not a whisky we can it is a whiskey tasting and they. Make eating and if yes how is playing sure so that none of the normal for all of the that goes along with the whiskey weekend is involved. No backwash well let's not talk about that. We're consumption of many things so that the party when of the situation parties at my old house years ago i had gone to an auction like this and i had bought a cake balls i know i was there, so this is a similar thing I paid for the cake bow so you would, I'd likely pay for the $750, but what do the merriest well i could do a personal tasty. All good i'll get a sale out yourself the fuck are you. [49:20] Alright alright so we need to solve this stuff but let's work on it after we go for a bike ride so anything else to talk about we're going to try again next week.

Hi guys this is Chef Joshua I am from India and I guess I'm a special guest on the show this is episode 89 for those of you that have been keeping track we haven't had an episode since sometime in July so today is September 17th that were recording the show probably be coming out by two or three days but we've had lots going on while we've been away before we before we get, too much further into it we should probably do some housekeeping guys what about the word of the week, why do we let our special guests choose a word of the week. [1:15] Fuck fuck fuck shit, to watch we got it right so we got a little bit at, housekeeping to talk about that I've been doing some traveling David for doing some traveling we will talk more about that the end of the show but since you mentioned watch, I'm guessing you might not want to talk a little bit about some of the gadgets that were announced during the Apple event last week. So happen owns the venue iphones and apple watch okay the water yeah will will do his will get into what we go right into the news and let you take that as the first segment I will get with that so I'm going to do the news intro new story of the week alright so let's take that first news item the Apple iPhone event. [2:23] So Apple announce the iPhone, 10s Russians all the people in The Colony Texas is I collected everything from Apple, yeah and when you combine it with Max it becomes excess Max which is a terrible terrible, let's get on with it was terrible names for everyone else will fail so lucky. So one of the major announcements on the 7th was the Apple Watch series for which of the Greenlight removed from the site for the celebration which is an improvement, as far as looks so concerned but the thing is they introduce ECG and their watches. Which is electrocardiogram which made me actually consider switching 2 hours just to get the watch which I have never thought about before why do you want to ECG all the time. [3:27] Elektel on further thought I don't want to listen to all the time but let's see I was in my thirties or my forties and I was thinking about my health and. We want we want to ignore our health, I guess you can do that but I have heard a lot of people out of stories about the Apple watch cashing Hartley to diseases early on, for people who might have not had an idea about the diseases because otherwise perfectly healthy, so I think it's a great achievement for apple and for the health industry overall, why do they reset technologically yet it's hard to say but I can just imagine younger people going here mom your dad buy this watch, api of this is because it i'm worried about you now mom and dad you know maybe in their seventies or eighties will remember to charge it but you know yeah apple still sell a lot of them. Okay that was my first thought actually like. My mom and dad is still a little older it's probably that I probably buy them by this for them. [4:46] I don't think so but the price will no support calls. Right by the time you're old enough that it'll matter they'll have like a 30-day battery life or something like that, what this really means apple is going beyond the communications and gadgets are really getting into the health devices field. Yeah I guess they haven't getting into Health devices filled with the CDC when they really got into the groove for smart watches and left all the other SmartWatches in the dust too so to speak because, I don't see any other compelling Smartwatch other than Apple watch Android SmartWatches are fine but, that just spoke your phone notifications I guess you guys use any smart watches. I think it looks like a nice watch which the Apple doesn't it I have a fight ionic you're right it doesn't do much. [5:49] Notifications I don't think any of the watch-like does much, things and so I'm not people really don't use a Fitbit ionic has a near field communication pay system so like Apple pay, the one thing i like about it that no other smart watch really comes close is the battery life but also it water proof and but with that regularly. [6:18] Yeah so if I was going forward or probably go for a Fitbit or something similar but if you talk about fitbit's garments for people who are. Into the health seen before Apple watch camera. One is when i people that that are doing things they don't have a heart attack the other for people that are planning to have a heart attack you and fear of market segmentation. Okay so, well here's the thing if apples really getting to the health devices it's okay it's in a bigger way the one thing that we're seeing really changing Healthcare, from a technology perspective is Big Data machine learning and AI, in the build things like crisper in the human genome project and things like that take a lot of computing power and if you start Apple starts getting Telemetry from millions of people that are wearing this who knows what they might be able to discover problem is, they don't have cloud service they don't have the backend compute to really make good use of this so this leads me to believe their partner up, only relief for options for them to partner with as far as i'm concerned one would be amazon because cloud provider in the world. [7:38] I don't know what kind of relationship Apple has it Amazon but Amazon really is not a devices company more you know they've got the Kindle, they try to phone it didn't work they tried to go the Kindle HD Fire I've got one of them but it's really not a big deal just more just Amazon consumption device, it'll come back to Amazon if I should have left them for last let's talk about Google Google I don't think apple is going to partner with Google it but it had screwed Microsoft. So who's the fourth one at IBM Facebook Facebook Facebook. Google. Ok Google and apple are going to get together on devices cuz they compete too many front potentially Microsoft because of you take a look at where Microsoft and Apple play now not a lot of overlap anymore Microsoft out of the phone business. [8:36] The switch the devices will the surface devices where they Clash a bit, us soliders and the whole ecosystem right but interesting enough so what we haven't really talked too much about anything else that was at the apple event they didn't mention any max was gonna take, are we updated on their new laptops now next month or something where they announce a lot of laptops and will update the air parenting right so, Microsoft an option I think Amazon is probably the best option very little overlap and option for was building the wrong. Which I don't think they're going to do no, owner domestic considering how the phone service Works which doesn't sync their data. And you have to lick the tag the photos again in each of the devices. To ask you to send that heater back and forth and iCloud still doesn't work perfectly iMessage, and the cloud still doesn't work so I don't think building the one is, and Azure and they're probably running their own fabric between the two so that's that'll be interesting to see where Apple goes with that. [9:53] Let's talk about some of the other devices that the word ounce there were three new iPhones. Yes the iPhone tennis tennis Max and the 10 are start with which one do you want to own. Yeah I like super Retina display that they introduced with the tennis has a low DPI than 950 and 950xl from like 3 years back. [10:30] 2 It's fine but i don't really want one such a big device for today i think it was a five point eight and six point five in screens to let's go through the but that start the bottom man the iphone acts are, 64 gig starts at 7 or $49 us what's specs. [10:51] I don't know but don't just sit there look pretty that's my job. [10:57] Got that what what are the specs on that one I think it has a eatable bionic it has all of the. Bells and whistles of the expensive to iPhones but it doesn't have the camera, Lakers has only they tell you it doesn't have a telephoto camera it has it doesn't have 3D touch, and i think that's it actually and it doesn't have the ski lift you banding it has alley me telling you i'm. [11:29] Can you on the side yeah thats not really replacement for the current iphone ten it replacement for the iphone each plus, although they still sell that right and I think the bionic is supposed to be much more efficient and they've got low power cores as well so in theory get up to 50% more battery life. But I think like because event larger on the screen this time it's like only 90 minutes more than the H+ also that's a very good battery time like if you're getting 90 minutes more than, start at 999 for 64 gigs by the way if you want to go up to. 128 year $250 into 56 and 750, probably how you doing things that have the key I think they have the 64th and the 256th and the 512, okay so the excess so tell me between the XR in the excess. [12:37] Only if i had to choose one i'd probably choose the ten are because the you ten s has excessive based on that okay but what do you get for those extra. You get a telephoto camera by the way that NR can do the book and the portrait effects without the telephoto camera so that's important fact that you're looking to just do the telephoto, just getting the tennis portrait mode with software, wanted display rather than and see okay. Slique cannabis, real videos and pictures. Look for to $50 you're not really getting much okay. Go ahead Tennessee on $400 more than the excess, and you're just getting slightly bigger battery and a slightly bigger screen that's it I will say this is hard to say, it is Edison 1500 us-45 12 gig not that anybody would buy a 512k phone but, really why music recordings all sorts of things always running out of space. [14:06] I believe I have 512 phone as well if it was available for models that I want. Yeah that's interesting I don't use that much storage on my phone then there's a thing called streaming guys you should try it, yeah but doesn't have good Netflix owns all over the place and, I like to have lots of pull apart Castle to Ally cat usually have 3 to 4 gigs of work podcast on my phone downloaded all the time welcome that argue against that through quickly like I like my music with me up at the lake and stream that. Things like that okay so that's. Anything else want to talk about the Apple event anything that was interesting anything was conspicuously absent anything else. [15:08] On my rca or everyone's the cool food for a mac even later this month or let's say next month because they have the lip and he of bead yeah that will prob be the best selling mac again, and the announcement Havasu Mohave think is coming out to Max, next week or probably this weekend I was 12th that's a major update for iOS which will make old phones and fast that's a good thing for everyone who owns an iPhone so, let's move on. David Microsoft officially has a name for the next version of Windows 10 creatively called the October 2018. Wow when can we expect to get that November but I love that got rid of the fall and Autumn and stuff it's like. [16:02] As for arbitrary based on where seattle is so. What is at the Georgian calendar or not it's so pretty much everyone follows the, what's the mohabbatan calendars all sorts of I think my got a vast majority people following that first of the seasons deeper into that is our next episode we can try to be recording more often and we get some get some details as to what's coming in that update I'm running it on one of my machines, as i talk about yes i just it took textbook forty minutes update i shouldn't of said click to start the part right so i want to move on and talk about, some of the some of the things we're seeing with the new windows on our machines there machines now coming out. Battery life is a 25-hour range running Windows it's not crazy it is crazy so the lenovo's got one a lot of what we talked about this before the folks at. Let's build the arm shifter talking about creating shapes that have the same performances and i7 but with much much better battery life, now what i'm expecting david is that you turn off was background sounds as if it's sleep if it's ad that's fault not mine it and then i also expect. [17:27] The next generation is really weird to see if we die we tried we are in Redmond we tried some of the early Windows alarm devices that were they were but they were sluggish they. Buy it and they were they will cases to be righteous and new entered so you take a lap top make it slower and, but I think I think it's going to be pretty interesting so we talked about the Apple event there's a Microsoft Event October 2nd, i have not but if it if it's a new and i would make when you're all talk more about that my rant and rave we wanted me york for that we get an invite. Okay sure I will definitely do that I have a feeling they're going to be announcing some more arm devices as Qualcomm start shipping those new arm chips. [18:19] I've been I've heard they're having a new new Surface laptop I've heard that too, it would be interesting if they could buy those to the Groomer's I'm not sure if that's just the color they did for for the. For the stealth mode machines that they didn't want people recognizing okay so that's the upcoming, microsoft event on october second stay tuned we will cuff coverage of so that yeah that's two weeks from two weeks from tomorrow so we will try to do a voice over like we have done in the past right to the track with microsoft events next week is microsoft ignite, we are not going I got North my office going either just way too much work too much going on this time of year so what we're going to be doing is looking for some correspondence of anybody, that's listening the show is going to ignite. [19:11] Please let us know and maybe you can do a remote segment for us or with us I know we've already got a couple of volunteers we'll talk more about that later. Wanna just do one show next week you're gonna be crazy go for to well and adobe with new one every day talk with enough that they'll depend on what microsoft announces i think we'll have to be fluid dynamic okay, what do you think sure let's try for 5 and go with. Will do we could still do daily daily segments of them back to the mall together, alright do you have another news item David the next one is the winner Microsoft Windows 10 s Enterprises will get I hate to setup a Linux like support. So that means they get support for Josh well I don't know it's like support me but mostly mixes with other than red hat don't really have support. Well right unless you pay for it so basically this means that enterprises will be able to run older versions of Windows 10 longer. Like. [20:24] Like they do with open to where they have what are they call them. So I've been working a lot of organizations moving to Windows 10 and they're really really struggling that's the case maybe they shouldn't be maybe they should understand it's just a minor update makes you just let it run but think they can. So We're there struggling with it this will be good news for them and 30 months okay so that means if you want to update every other year. [20:59] You could do that you could do that we should talk a little bit about it's just that Microsoft is going to be charging for Windows 7. Excited by the way they were charging for supporting XP through the pay for it so for those who aren't aware Windows 7 is coming to end of, January 20th that was what it was supposed to be and now they got his five years of paid support I believe which. Total expected sure you can if you want to pay for it they'll take care of you and I think a lot of people just don't care. And they just let it run without Sportability. I don't want to think about that too much last last piece of news that your phone app in Windows 10. Now has a Android SMS support so from your laptop you can send text messages so I've been able to do this with MightyText for like, 5 years right okay and then there's Android messaging app does it that's right but this is a joke. [22:06] Centralized hub for all of your messages so you can have it come into your Skype stream or whatever really. Ion yeah i use the browser based one with with android and it seems to work well and then it works for my non windows devices like. [22:23] My Android tablet okay so I'm not 7% but obviously you were you put it in the show that's all right. And now well David you wanted to talk a little bit more about was that a rumor you want to talk about any other no but I think it's time for you to have a bit of a rant. [22:46] Music. [22:54] Rants and Raves alright raps here we go 123. For my birthday I went to New York City they were taking my family there I think I've been there but haven't gone to the kids before we spend a few days there oddly enough I ran into some people that I know from Ottawa there right there take down the street so we have some fun you know who you are, what do Yankees gave my birthday try to Nathan's Hot Dog have White Sox. [23:24] Edgewood New York City you did a lot like to talk a lot about the city later but, did go to the Microsoft store in Prairie surface ago there was very noisy busy Place great location, and guess what it's more laughable than a both the surface. [23:47] And the whole body surface for what do you mean by regular some people might not know what that means well but then Mary Jo Foley stole it from us, it means how well it works on your lap at Lop ability is a personal thing because everyone has different left Dimensions based on how big their legs are and how, yo holla at all they are because you get a different angle on your lap based on how tall I was all the distance between the floor and your knees could have packed it totally totally, and I had lap ability issues with the Surface Book would slide off my lap or topple over my lap is slope. [24:29] I had liability issues with the Surface Pro 3 and 4, just because I didn't have enough Lop real estate to get the angle that I need to see if I can make it work but it's not Ideal Baptist for the lift my knees a little bit. David you're taller you didn't have the issues I had, surface go worked really it worked well then that's made for a smaller person cuz I found it was fine I didn't really concert that Billy but I found the keys very small, keyboard was actually better than I thought he would have took her and I skateboard but I still able to type on it so friend of the show fellow MVP Rafael from what the MVP coffee klatch in Germany, tweeted at us asking what which laptop you should take I think the surface go is the perfect device to take to ignite I don't think that was one of his choices though too bad you should go buy one that's right. [25:21] And so I still haven't got my by TSA settlement by the way are they thinking about it I was supposed to six months I got to follow up on that. What do you think surface Kobe tried 1 scene 1. Actually I don't think they have launched it in yet but I have a Microsoft store near office so late, I tried to go there today like it was closed for some reason. How to check it out once it launches in India okay so why is this a wrench. Because you didn't like the store let me tell you why I loved the flagship store, yes am I even went back there on the subway himself he had a great time there they tried some AI some VR they played some games they had an awesome time I couldn't drag them out of there he made a magnet for his locker. [26:15] It was awesome. Then on the way home we just so we drove by on the way home we drove through Syracuse and stopped at another Mall there they had a mother Microsoft store if you want to go look at a mouse. [26:31] He was kicked out of the store for being there without his parents swim team you were just next door you know I wasn't feeling well, yeah so he can't believe I walked over and they said yep no we don't want to babysit your kids all afternoon to the store by himself just yesterday and you won't let him the store yet that's our policy if he walked down the hall and went to the Apple Store instead they have, no issues welcome so I tweeted and the Microsoft store caught back to me, and the manager apologized and he sending him the mouse that he was looking at those a Razer gaming mouse not slow but feels very odd, they didn't want customers in the store yes that he wasn't doing anything, I can see just looking at stuff yeah that's supposed to same thing it was doing the day before at the store New York City. That's funny that's my rant, i too have anything else rats race you have any what about what about heard any rumors for microsoft, well you've heard rumors about the October 2nd event right right and no new device type so I really doubt they'll do an arm thing. I really wish they would do a surface laptop in arm but I don't think they will they will. [27:58] I think they should I don't know I think they should I have a feeling that the Andromeda by Celine ARM device yes but it won't be announced either. I'd do will probably do it on the guys they got them being up there windows from paying the amount of your like it. I think so later I think they'll announce it Alexa something like they will ship it later this year maybe holiday quarter or something like that, I think I put that in the show notes then we have calling. Arbor knot armored October 20th October 2nd or pervasively no. LTE says yes and David let you know arm just. Just updated the surface laptop and it's updated surface Studio. Shall we all find out. [29:05] Yes but we still at my up so how do people contact you you can you need me you get and this oh sorry. Counter. Alright so you want to sign off from India. I think so it's 4 a.m. and I think I should go to sleep anyway so say goodbye. Look at my car right everybody keep your stick on the ice. [29:50] Music.

[30:28] Alright we are back with the universal windows podcast after party also known as the universal whiskey podcast. Damn it sold that yeah I know I stole the podcast of the Podcast Addict. Sticking around with other standard drink and david i brought it something that i i've got as a gift. Gifts are good for sharing this is tom and tool fourteen years old it's forty six percent and it is a space side and as you know i've never myspace i didn't like the exact so space side is just, Parlour Highlands but it's a sub-region so here is what our good friend Jim Murray says in The Whisky Bible. [31:13] This guy is shortness of breath some what the distinctiveness to The Barley & Oak arrive a little flustered and half-hearted rather than with a confidence Drive. Remains of beautiful whiskey full of Vitality displaying The Malt its most naked and vulnerable state they get the feeling that perhaps, a few too many third field or underperforming second that resulted in the intensity and hair-raising Harmony the truly great previous bottling just being slightly undercooked, that's still where the delicious dram and he rated at ninety one and he loves the sixteen it is a ninety four point five will have to get that so let's pour this david yes. It's the fashion for you some as well I could drink it for you though okay. It's very a honey color. [32:13] It's got that sweet sweet vanilla finish that I like and it just easy drinking. [32:22] I have a suggestion. So I got a book I picked up at a garage sale and it's called. What's the call David 100 whiskey to drink before you die hundred whiskey drink, 101 and they're in alphabetical order and for my birthday I thought a friend gave me the first book of the first whiskey and thereby truly by accident. And to give you the book she gave me this book another book what's this one called this one's called whiskey of Sab Rafael. So you know where to go once you're ready to go before you think should we or should we go through that book. As part of our episode three things that the substitute. [33:23] What some might be of statically impossible right well but that is flying to another city and spending a hundred dollars on a whisky. Possible automatically impulse to look for when up you'll get them all week the in order week for week after week with a jump ahead and jack is clearly clearly i've say that's okay yet so you think we should we should move through these. What do you think starting next episode we're going to start with what is it or don't tell them we already did. Kampachi troika. [34:04] What is okay to pour enough whiskey to it through some very good Indian whiskey by the way. [34:15] I've never had that never was really good looking. [34:24] And, deleted my understanding is that they bringing malt from Scotland water from the Ganges out water from the hill stations, and they make it they stored in warehouses in India I don't know whatever what part of it yet but because of the temperatures they're able to agent much much more quickly and because of the humidity, they don't lose as much weave operation. [35:02] I thought you had more when it was hotter humidity humidity. [35:09] That's okay that's happening at this part of the show. It's probably cuz David was playing with my laptop and moving things so so your idea of going through this book so there will be some. [35:27] Epic Journeys to find some of these because well like how will you. We got through our forties without having hailey ecg zr gonna die will do this quick if there it's shite for africa but is there like, of water david it really opens up okay is that this or website, that you can find which bars of which whiskey is in like that but also we order them online from LCBO but yes there are. You know I'm just thinking for some of these you might not want to be spending the $2,000. What a week. And what he cure let me make it more interesting why don't we put the list up on the website and. [36:25] Except patreon that people ship us bottles. And we can we have a Us address we can just ZIP down the mailboxes and pick them up in the states and, where do you at if that's probably what the scottish address scrub a factor okay well i like this was goody think with a little water david really opens up as the. [36:54] I've contemplated bit more okay alright. [37:06] But it's been really good to me and hopefully, order take some notes no notice just fine about to the interior. I think it's best city for those that don't know that's a bottled water in India. Have you been to Canada. [37:30] The states. I used to be like today by first 6 months till my laptop broke down so I am just using Windows on the walk laptop right now. We should try to get you going to become a Windows Insider MVP and then that could be good excuse to come to the states which is probably Canada. [37:59] Sure geographically anyway well. [38:08] Let's so let's sign off and that till next time keep your stick on the ice at your scotch on the rocks. Everyone have a fantastic night I'll talk to you soon and good morning.

For a long long time since you've been there since the Windows 8 it's not easily accessible level link on how to create a shortcut to it if you want to use it and in the newest version of Windows 10 coming out. We expect next month version 1809 they've added some features to. [4:02] The file explorer and I guess that's an anticipation of surface Hub 2 and things like that. After I drop support better right click menu support improve copy paste. You cut option and set images wallpaper directly from the app things like that true i was a sanyo bunny. [4:24] Capitol uwp right that's still not as good as regular File Explorer. Okay but in a touch only world francis how how is it, use File Explorer with pure touch. Bit rough this would be easier i expect sure or of the x box controller or something like along those lines so that's our feature of the week. Anything you'd like to add to that they've I think we have a new statement that you wanted to create since I was at a security conference I thought I talked a bit about some hacking their security so we're going to create a new section of the week or security a week or, people's idea often will do enterprise pick the weekend maybe it's security pic of the week, could do that so why don't we do that spot of Twitter poll and have people vote on option name option that would give them an option to suggest their own okay, 312 if we don't get them to vote, so let's do that but with no one we wanna talk about what they were two sessions they went to the were very interesting one was on. [5:39] This group of people that researchers decided they try to hack into a fax machine, the call was really built a time machine first don't know people hunt foxes apparently hurley yeah they do to my nose beer colfax quick to german beer i've never had to hack my fax don't know, it's a drink that after after skiing. [6:03] Okay so what is a descriptive essay reverse-engineer the firmware on HP Inkjet fax switches, I'm sure everybody has one of those in the house they decrypted the firmware which was available on hp's website before you need it. No no that would be reversed they open it up they found out they figured out it it it been, compressed use an algorithm that only once been used before any game somehow they figured that out wow then they learned about what foxes doing did you know you can sell color faxes yes. I did not but that uses a JPEG yes as opposed to black and white uses Tiff well jpegs of course if. [6:55] Worms cost three holes they can do some sort of buffer or runs and such so what they be able to do in the end is send a fax to your fax machine. Course connected to your computer internet work with the mouth form fax email form j peg and download new firmware to your fax and from there hop on to your peace. Wow they're able to change the logo not that Prince not the physical look of course but the little screen logo. Interesting isn't that so where they the first people to figure this out who knows who knows I mean listening to the people. [7:41] I'm estimating it would take a person years worth of Labor. [7:48] Unless you work at HP and already knew some of the stuff right there reverse engineer a ton of this but if as an engineer that worked on that project if you worked at HP or what is one of the few. This. [8:04] Okay or certainly if they don't know it and so HP of course when they found out about it they flew these guys up to an undisclosed location and they, parks with them so they must they pay people for these sordid zero-day fun abilities and then HP is released a whole bunch of pics of course most people don't patch the printers that much but HP printers to automatic or not mine offer patch. A patch it by sending another mouth formed j paid that patches of for you absolutely they could definitely fact of you so it's okay if you say live in apps and i have a canon doesn't really matter i don't have the stuff no but you have a devices sports a whole bunch of, standards that. That have known vulnerabilities so someone could have easily done the same easily by meaning a Year's worth of work done the same thing for Canon or for Epson. [9:06] I don't know have ever wanna meet these guys at a cocktail party and talk to them that's just where you wanna meet next during a talk talk about okay oh there's more well them there's from two more sound well that's kinda like and go with. So there was one on this guy who had done the same thing with the Samsung S3 watch which I wanted to go to because I have a Samsung S3 watch. What the guy did is he wrote saw for that runs of the watch and it basically near rated all the api call city could make an look for ones that weren't returning the right err message said he did not permission for that particular thing lot standard approach I guess and then from that he was able to figure out these ones potentially weren't secured properly and through all that he was able to do things like read your messages. So If someone sends you know often you'll get a two-factor authentication kind of thing on your phone and it would go to your watch yet because the message so, they can have access to that. [10:12] Interesting and the cool thing was he was wearing an Apple Watch actually he was wearing a square watch probably, was it a samsung washer so i thought that was interesting so the sack didn't look like it was is it as intense as the other one because he just wrote a program enumerated the cell an examination of the in of the sort of thing self up. So my thoughts on iot things for the house yeah. If you're going to give it any sort of real control like voice or a camera only by first-party devices. [10:51] Good bye light switch or in a. Can a power outlet or those are things you know whatever buy something cheap I forget about cuz they're always going to have fun or building could spy on you if you give me information about, then yes and maybe next time we should talk about hamburgers, oh yeah lots going on home matters okay that's a letter did she think with david i think this is something we could build on will definitely tweet out some questions about incorporate a segment and we wanna call it, and. I think it's probably time to move on what you think of move set new story of the week so they leave story of the month that we have an episode about a month for the lot of news to cover. Yes and no particular order. [11:42] What you want me to start us start you start it the order is the order that you put the news items that are right so windows ten enterprise remote sessions we talked about this before it looks like it's going to be a thing in eighteen o nine up so what does that mean, well in the past we've had things like terminal server recall rd ascot it's come to multiple multiple names, Citrix had something called winframe but basically it's the ability for Windows server to host multiple sessions, I simultaneously on One OS instance desktop. [12:22] It's ever been on desktop when you do it on the desktop it's called vdi cuz this is this is where people get confused while being called vdi but it's so it's it's sessions versus instances so when were talking about, remote sessions It One OS that's allowing multiple users to use it simultaneously and if it's done correctly they don't see each other they're not aware of each other but it's one instance of the OS with multiple users kind of like, nbstsa norcia mass or any of those make frame multi-user environments. What's One OS running when we're talking about the what. Colloquially called vdi or virtual desktop infrastructure what type of incense is that what that is is a whole bunch of VMS Windows 7 Windows 10 Windows XP whatever that you would. [13:15] Connect to individually but each person has their own full OS single instance multiples of multiple single instances for the multiple users so that's different Theory make changes to it change the wallpaper and sell a different but you have to manage each of those instances separately. Brighton and then different things what happened maybe your administrator it's setting up so you don't have access to wall paper c license important i don't know cuz i remember this in the eighties well and exhaust pipe system Paradis resource contention so let's talk let's talk about what I'm going to call. [13:56] Sessions we used to call terminal server so sessions versus instances so vdi versus terminal server, videos great because each person gets a full machine they can do whatever they want with it if you need them to maintain state or not whatever you could give them a local admin if you want to alright. [14:20] The upside the down side is. 361 takes a lot more resources on on one server you could typically get three times as many. Sessions running as instances so on servers how many more times, you can get more at Moore session II. Got a man he each one of those instances we chappie patched maintained etc when okay and if you wanted to put software on them but c up it and software yet to do to, Sophia 20 of them are hundred a hundred users access you potentially have to manage and maintain 100 in yes I know there's tricks to it and there's linked clones and all sorts of things but you still have to manage each of those instances okay, Dallas talk about sessions sessions you can have a hundred users or 200 users. [15:26] Connect me to one instance free at once all 200 users get it right okay you can get a lot more users on the same Hardware okay. What's the downside but I mean I just take my CPL with a with Edge going crazy well that's part of it, multiple users be there are ways to limit that they would manage that assuming that you could be besides directly what's the downside to dam site one you can't give your users local event it's obvious local admin they're going to make him specially Mike it up for everybody, that's one second is a mess is more interesting it's a server OS. [16:09] When you buy an application like I don't know let's say. What's bad example because it's a pretty resource-intensive application but shirtless with AutoCAD, it's certified for Windows 7 or certified for Windows 10 not certified for Windows Server might work but yeah so you typically have to go through a bunch of little hacks and things and tricks to trick, the application the OS to work together because they were never really designed to work together and at the core. Windows 10 Windows 7 really designs and user Wes's easier to navigate and things like that. Windows server was not is not right and so. Could the complexities that come with Windows Server because they're typically designed for you design for. [17:02] Administrators to use and gives you give up things things like you would, typically manager Powershell etcetera you don't ask me when I suppose that either so that's the downside there so why is this important will because For the First Time Ever you can have multi-session Windows 10 so those applications, that you could run. That like that have trouble running sessions on a server won't have that issue anymore but here's work it's really interesting you don't need to buy a server license and you don't have to buy server Hardware, to run this really inexpensive way to y'all get a half a dozen people working off of one piece of hardware. Either using maybe using an RDP client off their phone or tablet use their phone or the tablet instead of using their my pc and right not using it right of talking yeah but if you're going to be using sessions anyways or vi anyways this is a cheaper way to do it with, with Laura compatibility issues and one machine to patch it give the Windows 10 however 21 instance to patch and maintain. Okay so that's why that's exciting well as a pretty long use item it was it was. [18:16] Hear something exciting David what you want take this one wire PC sales growing Womack sales are crashing. I've got some ideas do you have some ideas I mean the Mac hardware has been stagnant I think that's would be, part of the reason why they're not doing too good that there is that and Microsoft some coming up with new Innovations and we we've discussed it. Limitations of things like the surface go. Take this definitely and so there's a couple things going on here right i understand that the. There's been a lot of innovation in the PC space, got the surface as an example and multiple vendors all jumping in all doing things a little bit differently and got one vendor that really hasn't updated, i were too much on the back side that looked good price very good and they kind of grow out of the crappy keyboard. [19:13] So here's the thing, what they're saying that PC Mark is going 1.4 to 2.7% depending on the ask Garth Gartner I deceive it's growing very smart very small growth but the key is it's being driven by, she was sales but by enterprise sales so, part of that Enterprise refresh cycle and Windows 10 and part of it is becoming more and more deployed throughout Enterprises remember 2020 January. Windows 7 no longer supported, so they're working with your get off of that so they're buying as part of their Windows 10 upgrade they're looking at some of the great new security features that you only get with UEFI, and things like that so they're looking at more modern PCS that have TPM and UEFI support and things like that to take advantage of celebrity features windows ten and their refreshing their fleet of pcs right in the art department still has, facts right and the whole users a lot of them so of the max, if ever had one I see a lot of Home users never using their PCS anymore they're using their tablets or using their phones they're using other devices, alright so any other news David how about Windows 10 lets you draw in your emails. [20:37] So if you happen to use the Windows 10 mail app which I do you do do you really I do why would you do that. [20:46] I don't know what I was going to say it looks there because I install Office 365 right away, but it's got new pen and ink support for many years I was just a complete and total glutton for punishment. But now it's actually it really nice nap, I wonder if I have the most recent version here I am drying on it and I'm seeing nothing happened draw how it is your job by finger there you go, okay okay yeah there we go try and canvas right there we should put that in future of the week well. Alright there you go. Well thanks for the help, okay here's a piece of news that maybe we should have saved for your security your security segment do I take that one. Which won the windows and no stops made on live next, by security fail what was 3-1 you can make Windows apps on Linux. Why cuz you can develop Universal Windows apps on any five. Okay so this is basically it's one of the tools that they give you. Has somebody release of interest well it doesn't get as much of a robust check as it does on the window side going to comes down to it so. [22:15] Will a bunch of different distributions are affected by a court in the compiling tool. [22:22] And so I don't know a lot about it but 64-bit PCS with specific versions of. [22:32] Athletics end up putting the executables with relocation table intact. Okay and there's a workaround okay so for those of you do well in a windows developers on lennox at listen the show they go. 9 reasons why the Samsung Galaxy Note is the best reason so I totally disagree with number 9, oh you want talk about that life wasn't even there did you put that there you put it there, I don't trust myself I should I shouldn't write show notes or you're not drinking it was hot number 9 at least this number 9 is Samsung Dex which is basically. Continuum for Samsung it's really cool I mean all you do is you plug in external USB C DisplayPort. [23:25] And hook up a keyboard somehow and all the sudden you're kind of having a Linux or Android type device that you can access, and you can access your Windows 10 session server you can access it's so it really it's really cool I played with it for a few minutes and then, I don't know where it's gone because that's just have no used to me alright is Samsung pay which is. Supposed to be better than Google Play, I've got Samsung pay Google pay and I've got I can pay from my bank app and I never use any of them, pay on my watch but my bank doesn't support it yet so yeah I can pay with my watch have just feedback, say something and in the after parties to things or talk about in the after party about my iphone and about a credit card scam, Xbox at the end of The Show by you'll miss out on that, yeah she speak about you I saw a. [24:36] Dell monitor 23 or 24 inch monitors 120 bucks but it's base was a Qi charger, oh that's nice and she is two standard that Apple and Samsung use right that's nice that's nice, fast charging and wireless charging find that they're doing a great job of that I have a Samsung 8 which is little bit older and it's. Beat meaning older meeting 6 months 9 lb available on wireless carriers everywhere so you can use the face the fingerprint. Pin Samsung Knox. Enter stealth of frontman enterprise perspective baker display will you can't argue with that not being a good thing. [25:22] Dual rear cameras so can do some interesting that depth-of-field things like that for what they called a bokeh effect. My wife has a iPhone 8 plus and I have. Gestational age plus and it does some really cool features but overall a really good phone not quite is the only type and the porter motor does this fantastic and then i have my same sun which does amazing at Lower Lights blowing her phone away but otherwise my Lumia 1020. Fantastic fantastic wants better than the Lumia so okay it's better okay. [26:09] Okay and the s pen that's been. [26:14] Would you get mad on the phone he had a yes. Well that was fun note series though that maybe shouldn't put that in the show, can you do me a favor don't ever alright here's something interesting. [26:36] So we talked about Apple is now the world's first privately-held trillion-dollar company. Auto market cap just means if you were to buy up all the outstanding stock in Apple, because a trillion dollars yes except whenever down but you were buying out the rest of the sheriff's will typically if you start going on a buying spree, that's all it means that's totally anime more profitable anyone else or that they have more Revenue than anyone else just means that's what they're outstanding stock is worth at current market value so I thought Amazon be the first trillion-dollar company they're not help you took a look at the others, but that slash google there the seven thirty billion dollar range i think and was on the nine hundred billion dollar a microsoft's in the room microsoft's run seven sixty five but it changes from day to day, on market conditions of people that really excited about this but you put it in terms that actually. [27:35] Make sense what hat what would happen if you invest $1,000 in apple 10 years ago, how much you have that if you have almost $10,000 which is interesting cuz I bought Apple in 2008 which is 10 years ago, does that she put me is trading options doing sc crazy leverage stuff and i was forced by apple and hundred eighty dollars a share oh darn and i sold it when it 370 Borden double what I paid for it so you could but if you about Microsoft during that time your thousand would be worth $5,000 for the first six seven years of that Microsoft stock was dipped and then was flat that's right yeah you could make, yeah baby Microsoft is might have outperformed didn't the last couple years but certainly over 10 years which is a good night to the last 3 years. [28:26] I was talking to a friend of mine when he was about investment when you're trying to invest in for a particular topic 2 particular goal retirements hard cuz you don't know how long you going to live but some Investments like buying a house or putting your kid to school or whatever you know approximately when your kid will graduate you know approximately how much money and so you can start making long-term Investments like apple that was Apple going to become a 10 trillion-dollar company over the next 10 years no but I would have said. 10 years ago they wouldn't have gone up tenfold so hey what do I know well typically companies that grow 10 full don't grow another 10 fold in the same time. It's time to find another horse that right but they did. But they were pretty small 10 years ago compared to weather now. Alright Windows 10 chrome users now get alerts in the action center so far what is the actual Center called the action centers the little piece on the bottom right-hand corner of your Windows 10 screen where you get alerts like the new updates or your Dexter I've got a dentist appointment right right things like that. [29:42] And you can add things to the alerts and so Google has added that form from users so what kind of alerts maybe update to Chrome Etc, there's not much alerting system within chrome to i mean i get them on my phone all the time he actually say yes and some website your, Tim to this message okay so since we're talking about Chrome next one is really we've been following this, arm chips the new snapdragons are out and Qualcomm is claiming that they have i7 performance. Is that we've been talking about windows ten on arm and now we're looking at. [30:22] Tell me the next few months seeing retail versions of Windows 10 and are machines that perform. Similarly to an i7 now that's something I be excited about so you're saying it can be cheaper and either or combination of. Lighter or smaller battery or run longer. Could be but I don't think she forgot but aren't the arm architecture definite lends itself to the following for takes one. Less power hungry also runs cooler which means for form factor perspective you you have more latitude. [31:09] How you build a device because it's not getting hot we've been to all these Microsoft sessions for the talking about their beautiful cooling system right so make it simpler right so you don't have to worry about cooling systems you want to worry about airflow as much so. Because it don't run it's hot over the week and so as a result it's more flexibility design, you also get much better battery life because they're lap power-hungry yes and arm ships just by their nature. Alarm devices have the, what we caught were used on our phones at Institute on they can be to do if different on until they ate they can be sipping power waiting for some event like a phone call at cetera and, then they start using power more after the phone rings you pick it up at cetera in the two criticisms I've heard mostly about the surface go are it's not large enough for my hands I heard those criticisms from me, and then the other I've heard is that the battery life isn't too long so if you took that sort of device you're not going to fix the hand Problem by going to arm but the same size same weight battery would probably do an extra. For 5 hours and here's the thing. Almost every Qualcomm chip also has an option with route to eat baked on true right so. [32:30] Intel don't really have a lot of options with LTE to separate, add that to build on the sock right yep at that separately it would want not who would not want to have lt available for a little no extra charge you can if its cheap enough then you can don't really care if it's they're not there and just use if you want exactly, so we've been tracking this but looks like they're coming who's coming the fast arms were coming for. Welcome okay alright. There was the best Saturday Night Live skit all right. [33:13] Microsoft a rev it's microsoft three sixty-five marking machine the new road map so microsoft three sixty-five brings together all whole bunch of different things we talk about the pass on the three sixty five windows ten as a service, Enterprise Mobility Suite as your ad whole bunch of different things and they're rubbing it they're really pushing this Microsoft 365 thing, I think it's going to be good for them you might be different feel like, because they got some interesting properties that Windows 10 is getting momentum of 600 million devices running it and throwing it mandatory still upgrade from Windows 7 unless you go to Linux or something else because I won't be support for it took a girl that more Office 365 is. [33:58] Will growing like crazy but that's gonna peter out because two will be on left the migrate soon but look at companies like google. On the Android devices are so successful because they Leverage The Google services that you're there you're already using other devices that makes us on a really good job of making some of their Office 365 and Dynamics and other services available cross platform, will it ios and android all in next and so on windows of course, and I'll put that all together taking of what it's a better together story with Windows 10, and you cant use your chromebook to access office three sixty-five it's just would you do with windows ten you get a more integrated experience all. [34:44] Synth definitely better office application then you would if you center chromebook will get, it's better for you maybe the web-based experience versus a local install experience or the Android app. What are they calling that or is that part of that. [35:09] They have their also basically doing a similar program with surfaces are they not so that's part of that that's part of that where you can actually. You can actually. [35:22] To buy everything from them so it's Target smb3 by your Hardware or software you think about smbus is mpc5000 seat most of them. Please office still use exchange online please SharePoint tell you some kind of Erp so Microsoft Dynamics, as part of that and we'll use PCS Microsoft mouse all those things in the world that sells the hardware the software, office productivity as well as the ear piece off where weather takes forever it's partners whether to see are ample yet but but it'll the vendor that hat that we all look at people softer oracle you look at a c p you have they don't have the hardware know they don't have the productivity Suite so they don't OK Google total productivity Suite maybe we can talk about that separately but. Microsoft really uniquely positioned in this to take advantage of this and that's why companies like Google and Amazon are trying to build office suites. So they can get into Amazon of course I do know Amazon lots of course okay. Let's move on to snippy snippy oh God where Sean alright. [36:45] The new Idol a feature so full it was sniffing to alright this is not. I think you're more would have used no no this not help with your cigar so. Basically the i new features of this this or tolls and the the favorite one at that i see there i didn't as the delay feature so you can go and how you have what pop up when nobody sees you click away from it, it disappears and you can't get a screen capture of it then you can do that with this. So I've been using another tool for years I'll call Fastenal capture and I've also be which I paid for you don't use, snag get from ss from tax and it, i do use negative place cam page a from texas more than snag and i pay the read while though as an mvp i get free version of maggot my snagit outrun the portal app I can run fast one capture off of USB key. Take it with me to client sites and work on their machines it's also very very light weight compared to snag it's not get a whole lot more. A light weight version of an app that that works well for me. Call your clients let you run your own software that sounds good man to install I have to run it if so run it halide run things PSP so that's why I'm not even from OneDrive. Yeah anyways we forgot to tell everyone day what the new tools called. [38:12] It's called Snap and sketch slip and sketch oh my God. That's such an awful name it is it sounds like it it sounds like. Okay so yeah so they're basically updating it they're doing all sorts of updates with these these little free utilities there could be a bunch of updates to Sticky Notes so they're going to stick it out cross-platform she could speak another new desktop not show up on your phone and stuff like that, excited maybe even SMS messages from your Windows desktop to your phone. [38:58] So the windows phone terminal line down that this is not me and there is no terminal application anymore for windows phone, but microsoft to set the due dates of things that they're taking away from windows phone i fine this kind of hilarious so from october thirty first the microsoft store will no longer accept do app submissions for windows eight acts earlier or i guess a point one or really really numbers again for the offer phone or windows. [39:29] Is phone windows eight windows eight one who still remembers who okay who would write hood to submit. [39:40] Does phone app to the store between now and october thirty first at lee hunter, who won MVP at Lee Hunterdon Marshall Windows 8.1 app so you know I work with a lot of mpoints and, i ran into windows eight about the same other times i run into vista. [40:04] Peter Norton baby, notice I'm not suggesting that they're getting inundated with submissions they're just working on one get it in soon and or sickly the whole intake. Machine for turning it off and but you can still update yes so if you get that little app through submission I guess you can keep updating it will have to write to the people about the Opera. The absolute until they stop supporting Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 they'll let you update but it just it just curious, alright here's something we should maybe if I put this night security Corner was an interesting name for that segment so Windows 10 all new all versions. Will get a new Intel patch for Spectre at foreshadow. [41:04] Before we are relying on the firmware vendor to take care of that. Dell v hp's de la rosa etc and now microsoft is that is offer patch in their os oh that's interesting this and that yeah. Okay okay and here's a little bit of. We need to go back to the music Back to the Future music cuz I don't have any Back to the Future music, and now from the past right. [41:43] Bunch of startups are trying to revive the palmtop. [41:48] So not them already keyboard is ghana and everyone on soft keyboard go except government workers in ottawa that still have classic blackberries there's a whole bunch of, whole bunch of companies that are trying to bring back clamshell or card keyboard, devices so there's the GDP pocket there's a Gemini there's a guy on Five. I don't know who they're getting funding from why are we not getting funding like this whenever asked why we we should. Right so that to for the crowd funded oh okay fine but anyways it's kind of blast from the past this is it is something weed weed cover that and i love stories like that so i think that's it for the news. [42:40] Music. [42:48] Alright so that's it for the news but we've got lots more to talk about where it could be a long show because a lot to catch up on and. I think we should go to heard any rumors from Microsoft will call him a couple so first off. We're not going to ignite this year. Come come September right as of now we're not going to be in Orlando. Back in early August as looking at bae. Specialist for ignite and and we saw session called surface in the LTE world so okay but there's a surface 4 with LTE. Yeah then the surface go it's gonna be available on lt, write the session disappeared so maybe there could be announcing the surface go LTE at ignite and the surface 4 is no longer the current Surface Pro 4 getting the Pro 4 it's not current right. [44:11] He got a laptop. The certainly didn't know which one to take it you got a Surface Pro. Weather, the Surface Pro without a number which is what's confusing right which is a Surface Pro in my world. What's out that's one and you want to take the other rumor David that Windows 10 is going to get it in private that's talk what would use that for calling. Now what basically it it shut it's it's going to. Ignite so where you wanna go to some hot website all you don't do that your browser without then. So being private desktop to throw a Sandbox so you can write an application download to install an application to you something disappear freeware soft and it disappears when your session ends, wow that would be awesome right okay I like that. [45:15] Okay you have to like everything I install lots of crap in my systems and sometimes it doesn't work inside so throw it out. [45:24] Yo you want to convert a jpeg to a Tiffany don't have utility download want to do it then you done with it. [45:35] So that's a another rumor any other rumors you want to spread David I don't know. Alright what is microsoft so what if microsoft's latest warrant what if apple, what if Apple was forced to abandon the lightning connector switch to USB what if the folks in the EU declare the standard because of the E-Waste the only different cables and things like I do that right they regulate bananas the curvature of banana and the shades of orange than orange can be and things like that. [46:07] Truth so what if they said you don't want all mobile phones have to have a standard connector and it's USB C so let's talk good and bad USB C vs lightning connector. Thought both of them. Be put in upside down like a stat like a micro or mini usb that can be put in sideways that's true but that the of yucca root but so here's the thing, lightning connector solid connector but the cable sometimes we're up it's easy to use. So is USBC right but what I don't like about USBC is that it's a hollow it so things can carry in your pocket your car is stuck is jammed in there, star pins I got bad. Right up your PC speaker it looks pretty small when you look inside a computer but it looked on the side of his table right here where to go, that's not it let it go ahead one little one so large as devices gets smaller that becomes your limiting factor right. What i would like a because it be nice to have less types of ice tray tables are i've noticed i have of i don't have faith three us pc devices around the house my sons chromebook my. Oh for my my Samsung S8 plus my. [47:35] Fist fuck that and use it plus my work laptop and they all use them down at all the standards just don't really work that well but a little usb c cables are cheap apples i can make much money on a cure for. Here's the thing if we really wanted to. [47:55] Which could take a while they're there for switch because so much momentum behind it so the device out there but here's the thing apple could just say screw you you. Interesting phrase in say we're talking to put a usb c connector on it where do the same thing with. [48:14] Sure make it Wireless. [48:18] Yes USB C standard things like that I would have to think that the Apple standard is. More uniform than what we get on the USB site C side of things so the quality is going to go down for Apple users. [48:39] Well you can buy third-party lightning connector and I bought a bunch of the Raider realize other AppleCare I get free ones could I buy cable wore out the connector and where it was the cable that would wear out I didn't realize that I could go to the Apple Store just get new ones but then I bought a bunch of these, out of order but yeah we kind of usb c look at seven o'clock hold of them like this okay so sad to see if that's at the. Micro to micro to lightning I bought a cable when I was down south that does USBC lightning, and USPS and you just pull the tap out do that. Not yet my doesn't Brooke but a welcome anyway. And david i know this something that you wanna talk about rants and raves so today i installed the latest windows insider build and my computer cannot pass me for my. [49:46] So luckily I haven't started in the Microsoft cloud and I just retyped it in and so on so this is not a complaint against Microsoft in that they were, almost broke my computer but I think that the inside of her it's been pretty laid-back in this stuff pretty unaggressive in pushing out new changes to the world, the fact that something failed in my computer I think that's pretty good it shows that they're pushing things on a bit so my rant is that The Insider program should be pushing things a bit harder than they've been pushing. [50:18] Is that a rant or Rave not really pretty lame. Gastric bypass Springfield MO failure failure failure I've had in like a year yeah I think mastering should have more failures. Anything else when you talk like that nope okay so why don't you just say goodbye. Goodbye everybody have a fantastic day and we'll see you in the after party yeah keep your stick on the ice.

[51:29] Welcome to the after party also known as the universal whiskey podcast cuz we can't call the podcast anymore. People caught the podcast in the so David I brought along something I forgot to bring along but I pick this up this afternoon so I picked up some nice Bourbons in the States but then I drank them, nice nice whiskey I got this is Weller original wheated bourbon Special Reserve so Weller was the first guy w l Weller was the first guy to add wheat to Bourbon. And the recipe he created also became Pappy Van Winkle no no it's the, Weller 12 year old which is actually the same as the Pappy recipe all they do is they take if it doesn't quite make the mark for Pappy. For whatever reason and they use as a twelve year old the well wishes close to pappy as you can get without being pappy i'm happy you're happy happy happy so here it is this is the weller. Wheated bourbon Special Reserve. [52:37] Sprouts not in and listen to the er ski bible right they've got for this of the about four whiskeys in this family. And don't get missed all done by Buffalo Buffalo Trace that sounds nice. Yes that's one thing can't do as well with the headset mic I think it sounded great. Alright so it's good caramel color called you first the back for the week to start the stick with flavoring back to we. [53:19] So the well the bourbon make it so that makes it sweet so does corn different sweet sweeter than regular. Vanilla slippery finish vanilla not quite as sweet as something like Maker's Mark no look at this I'm drinking with my left hand with the microphone on the left. And not hitting the microphone I am getting better at this podcasting stuff at the whiskey breaking stuff. You need a. [54:01] Music. [54:16] Definitely a bourbon you don't no smoke no no salt very smooth very sweet. Enjoyable, second sorry sir with the city of. Don't know I wouldn't recommend Diet Coke I'd say regular Coke what did you call it. [54:49] So you were gonna after party are gonna talk about your i phone so force is new battery will let the top of the three thing or talk about okay one ft i saw something at the elsa belle today the haven't seen a long long time. Macallan 12. Ontario for a long time as member they victim of their own success me at the look for men bigger Market or special Market but I guess they Rectify that situation Andrew how did you Rectify this Biden, but when i got some home oh hell it's stockpiling it okay if that's why they shortage, what I would like every time I go to the US I buy a bottle or their 5-minute Market that has it realigned their stock, 12 years old for bottling and yes so that 12 and 18 became very hard to find they went to the Sienna's and the rubies in the cold cold night you're all fine whiskeys. [55:48] So that was interesting so iPhone so two things both of you that use iPhones my iPhone in the last few months I found the battery was getting really really. Weak item that most days I couldn't get through the entire day without a charge other days I barely get to noon and I wasn't quite sure why. That was cuz your battery was were not apart leak but the battery health of Tommy is at 86% which I thought was pretty good, I look at these two things someone and I'm not sure which is which, one of the apps I'd I had or more reason location services my location services on all the time choose up your battery Outlook with one of them so maybe only updates to Outlook turn on location services perhaps when I gave my son his phone died and I turned on the the tracking app on his phone, how to make turn it on in my phone etcetera but it was turning those off me should have made a difference but I thought the Apple Store and I've known about this but I didn't know what standing is that they've got a $35 battery replacement program in ascending and it's ending in December now if you're under all potion or if you're under AppleCare the battery place this free my AppleCare ran out awhile ago but it's thirty five dollars canadian i don't know what five dollars american of as and. [57:04] For thirty five dollars plus tax will replace your battery and from the easiest replacements can do they actually did the replacing get as opposed to giving you a new faucet takes about an hour suggest you backup your phone but the thing is i battery now i have it i can use the phone all day, I charged it pick it up at 6:30 this morning when I woke up off the charger that 68% that's what that's what Veronica's getting with her phone what are you at. [57:31] 47 much better than was before I'd be down sometimes to 30% by lunchtime or that's what I got with my old at 7 I should have found it back, i got was watching tv at ten at night i'd be down well below twenty percent up and down ten five percent at least 2 years old so I'm in a phone battery shade three years old this should make these devices 6s plus I got it when it was through the 7 was before the 7 came out so I got it then January came out in September I got it in January. So that's too bad because I. Right so I can't remember when that was it was during the winter suit Winters ago but anyways. [58:22] You got till December so make you book your appointment do it if your battery health is showing anything below 90% go and get it done $35 will add life to your phone and make of the resale value higher as well. [58:38] Exactly welcome might not be lasting all day cuz other apps running. Take care of those but here's the thing 35 removed out of my old phone likes S7 I removed everything I reimaged it I whatever and it would never come back, the weather should tell there was definitely a hardware problem beautiful solution from Apple $35 because lithium ion batteries degrade over time after about 2 years they start to degrade very rapidly. Is a song is charge cycles heat cold all sorts of things what do you think of the bourbon. Canadian $40 to us $35. [59:26] Alright so couple of other things wanna talk about with you and talk about him that was all i had. [59:34] Text talk about the iPhone talk about the McAllen tahoe at Pappy. [59:46] What do you want for dinner Dave wings wings we try out the new the replacement Door Pub yes. Alright so well let's wind down cheers. [1:00:01] And we try to have a more regular schedule come september can we back in school doing things we are away next week so am away, Thursday to Tuesday to go to Yankees game of my buddy Carlos called a hardly receive an auto accident he's in New York state where you staying at the hotel I was going to stay up I'm a block away can I find a place with free breakfast we'll hang out New York to hang out in Ottawa Carlos if you're listening hey the boys going boys love Carlos.

Time Colin Smith. No matter where we are we're still the surface Smith's bringing you what you need to know about Microsoft Surface at other windows 10 related news. What's that in Celsius. [0:55] Just funny that we every summer weather cell we're supposed to be in summer hiatus i've been taking some time off david to take some time off from work remotely, there's just too much interesting stuff going on in the Microsoft world to not have an episode is truly new hardware is always enters you hardware at all such announcements you microsoft releasing earnings gel all sorts of stuff for us to do in and it take care of hey guys what about the word of the week opec's Cortana thanks for reminding us David you want to go somewhere the week. I think we should go for the word of the week to feed maker maker. At Microsoft is the maker of the surface go. I'll write rhymes baker we're gonna go with maker so for those of you playing the game every time you're one of the same maker. To take a drink so for instance david if. If you told me your wife wouldn't do something I would say maker. A golf. She's not listening and she has your first marriage going calling it's still going to swap just fine David teacher of the week. [2:13] And us paris for also known as david. That's awesome yeah actually I don't know, call nearby sharing and we can you transfer files photos etc the app pass be aware of it but first you have to turn it on so if you go in the settings. You'll see that you can turn on something called nearby sharing and you could turn it on for everyone nearby or only your devices. And you can choose where files that you receive our store. Got a screenshot of that that's going to be in the show notes. But i do have a i have a have a working across my devices, it's a great way to transfer files photos were of your and add you can send the link to web page to another device but for most people just the way to share files you don't have to copy them to usb key in and transferred over. [3:28] What do you think about that. [3:33] You know the story technology has existed for a long time with things like infrared and all those early Sangster. [3:42] So I think it's a good picture but I don't think people will end up using because you know if you have somebody has something slightly different different version of Windows or a different device then they won't be. Fair enough but over time everything will happen everywhere. [4:01] Are people that matter will anyways especially if it's cross your own devices. If you do want to use it you can within add you click share within the photos app you click share or if your file explorer click on a file and right click share and it'll look she look for devices that I can share with. [4:18] That's the feature of the week and we love a try to have a feature of the week every week. [4:26] Time for. Could use all kinds of news to talk about it let's go swim promo the most important one obviously for us being the surface Smith's Microsoft, announced a brand new Surface called the surface go. So where you ten inch tablet vs standard calling her windows pro house with your answers bro have when. Flexible kickstand lower in Pentium processor. Earlier today I interviewed Kevin wheeler and that he gave us a rundown on that and I'm going to play that interview right now, okay so kevin's is here to talk to me to day about the surface go to kevin was your first impression when you heard about the surface go. [5:51] Why was kind of shocked right with all the talk of a Andromeda I was kind of shocked that they they actually want for this form factor, shocked but it was a pleasant surprise, jot notes and so when this came out i was really excited about it I was too so I kind of had a hint was coming so I don't know if you know the story last time we were together was in Redmond and Dave and I flew out David brought his surface 3 along, and for the lady gave it to me to use as the soundboard for the recording studio, so give the sound effects i use and stuff like that was a big and has good battery on it and the ts a broke. On my way leaving Seattle and so I'm still in the process of filing a claim with them at the six-month process but they make knowledge the claim and. [6:47] What you talking to our mvp track lead on the non insider side and i was looking at replacing to just wait just wait to buy a surface streets i knew that was coming. Multiple models what are we looking at is a 10 inch display. I thought it was much higher than that I don't know why. I'm look go from a by i thought it was slick eighteen twenty four. It's it's eighteen hundred by twelve hundred yet you think you tube will surface device would have you not high resolution but one of the nice things i like about it is the aspect ratio they you know they been sticking to that three by two right. These new devices so really really good for it. Okay so actually that's a Surface Pro that I was looking at the not those look at the wrong specs there. So what else is interested it's gonna four gig in an eight gig. [8:13] The 4 Gig seems to be paired with the 64 GB of storage which is emmc, however you know this form factor with that with the fast storage, you know for gigs of ram maybe some fishing and a lot of use cases well if it just taking note you not running autocad or anything i did a lot of multi tasking or they'll on my original surface pro, southern sleeping about this device is is the process to chores they went way for a penny am write previous model the surface 3. [9:43] The forty four fifteen why and when you re take a hard look at the specs in the benchmarks this is actually, or in three process. [9:53] Interesting so yeah is this a generally available chippers is a special special man fab pf just for microsoft. [10:06] Is not any other devices so just gonna be in a surface pro has so it's it's it's korean own specs, been is half the cast in a little bit lower frequency, because coil processors were really good what kind of performance battery cancer. S and so this you know the better performance and the price point right this is half the price of korean process. [10:47] Mariah so interesting value proposition there I've already asked Microsoft to send me a demo unit haven't heard back yet they're trying to get me to wait until August 2nd when these devices are released so. Put on three different hats. As you know in your in your work life if this was a machine that you want were gonna buy for work which model would you buy and what would be the use case for it. So I would probably go with the 8 gigs of ram hunting and 28 GB hard drive or SSD and abuse case would be for manufacturing and field use. These devices. You know they don't have fans there's no ventilation so they're great in those environments where there's dust and things like that cuz they're completely sealed I've seen use cases where users want to buy mobile, they want to be able to move around manufacturing floors and be able to connect to their virtual desktops and still be productive while on the go. Great for scanning or or you know contacting in in getting information from machinery and things like that. [12:08] Okay now put on your consumer hat or go up. [12:23] Even though that the Costco model is tempting I still think I would want the I want the 8 gig RAM for myself that hundred 28 GB SSD is fine for me my use case day i mean i would use a like a black and no pat, I see that use case it as a journal I'm looking at it as a stopgap to something else that may be coming down the road. [13:08] How another that's interesting you bring that ruggedized up Microsoft said that, devices air manufactures already building rugged as cases and screen protectors for the surface fell nice yeah i see some of those in the garage at their three d printing for other devices and that's be so what about the lt, i think i'm gonna hold out for the lt version is the same snap dragon axe six bobbing is that x sixteen lt modem that's in the surface pro, i mean the surface pro l t e it and just like the surface pro is still dual antenna moto so shes expects a really good performance with there okay what about a student, which model will try to find a use case for that for Geek machine is there one. [14:01] I think this I think that's where the student comes into play the student and probably help care could come into play here right most of the time a student or storage but i think that fit the student well healthcare, ten to use bd ir remote so a lot of processing power that they are doing is in the back and so happy bat model fit help years well okay so here's a question for you base devices yeah windows on arm, clearly for at least Pentium devices, now the surface go vs let's say you you saw that the ace is in the h p r n devices that we can run, write me later but you can run for windows ten arm and run x eighty six apps. [15:20] That's perfect so i was reading i get the model number on but that's have a look. Qualcomm has announced a new generation of arm chips that they believe will compete performance-wise against low end. [16:00] I7 860 s and. Gonna have a lot more performance better battery life etc just like all the snap breaking, An Arm based device and if it has a surface logo on it that would make it even more tempting. [16:31] Yeah I could see maybe that's why some of some Hardware some interesting Hardware may have gotten, that can compete in at add where there's really no compromise and performance to innovate and or do something you know right cell, surface just doesn't do they always on that will i come up pretty quick but it's not the same as an arm device what are we giving up on battery power. [17:46] Yeah there's a compromise their own battery and do we have any form factor compromises because of heat. [18:09] There's no vents I love that's what I loved about the old surface 3 is the rounded edges. And it like I said there's no vent so. Dustin things like that is gonna be great in those types of environments. Is this what does this use the standard surface charger what at connector called. Also has a usb type c connector right what you can do video, Jada and charger that was what I was hoping for. [18:45] Service connected and the usb c is fast charging right you can go from zero to a hundred percent in less than two hours that's what i been waiting for all my devices do everything i need to do so they don't have that i would love the instant on i could live without the insane on if i can get all of that one device that would be. For me a big change in how i can work and the use cases and that will replace a lot of. Not just Microsoft if you look at what HP is doing there's reports that Dale has a device, you running on arm so i think you're gonna see a lot more manufactures getting on the arm, and you think the grieving streaming think that the start knishes like manufacturing or healthcare or specific use cases. [19:59] I think because of the other manufacturers like Dell and HP I think they'll go mainstream. I think I think that I think there's a void out there there's a gap in the end what you can do with small, devices at i think the i pad is out there to many but i think that the still of gap bet it leaves when it comes to Performance or productivity that even consumers look for the iPad iPad. [20:32] Yeah and in this device the way they position at it was all about coming in at the lower end Healthcare you know. Don't book the beer do aware of what's going on with in the world of chrome in education and things like that and so i, yeah he knows that he's got to use it so he wants to bring his own laptop to school for next. No You know I see a lot of people Millennials now and they haven't use Microsoft Office in the decade or ever they live on Google Docs they live on. We had a we had a a young dude. [21:49] Who kept losing work because they didn't know they had hit the save button in Word. Well yeah but we need to save it and save it, to be honest i've never use google docs so i don't know the i don't know that the benefits are or you know the pro's and con's forensics never used ninety percent of the time the features you use in word or Excel there there. And they work almost the same way you don't have a lot of that, you ready i'm them all your writing a letter you're right maybe the three page paper that does everything work wise. [22:37] Get some more complex stuff after that. Well we can't leave out the sensors write me i'll write this thing is coming with water for one of the ss reason in multiple colors you got cobalt blue you got to the burg any and of course to the keyboard has that opera tenor that as a whole nother level of a quality to the device the whole cameras that building yes know that if you check in the army for four device that size for them to to get the hell okay amber in that is huge authentication is so fast and smooth so, looking forward to that i got new glasses and mike mike that confused now will get, will talk to him later today to go to Costco and buy one of those deals on August 2nd cuz you can always return it. [24:03] But I just disagree okay that's fine disagreement and controversies always fun so tell us what you disagree with. [24:13] So I like the form factor with 10-inch tablet I have a sore. I have to had two of them okay you borrowed and broke one of them. You didn't break it and my friend has the other one I don't know if he's broken it okay. Find that marcus so beautifully served by android tablets that i just don't see the point. Talk a bit more about that nap for able to hold on to things on on. On prime day after the first half of prime day got to save a lot of money because the servers were down so that was nice good but. The tablet Market freaking people are buying pallets and ugly enough, even i pets people are buying up but the surface markets growing and will talk a bit more about that so i bake to differ and i think, can't run the same software the issue really comes down to running software. A lot of if how many people do you know that use tablets dated day in enterprise. [25:38] Tons tons airlines i was just out. Restaurant I said Enterprise, it's i think this is the market and van provide air every every cash register, the stasis at certainly small businesses but they're definitely all tablets the the thing i see with my ears of this is. Before Microsoft announced this there were a bunch of Windows 10 tablets up there 10-inch tablets that didn't sell well. That's traveling brought out another one and this one has kickstand but probably other one says don't. [26:55] What they did but in the arm shut which would make it a lease last longer. They didn't make it run some fancy to our position that doesn't exist it doesn't fold did you like your shirt. You're gonna by with on august second know of any you to buy when i second that he had the interview theft. All true true i'm with the lt and i'm waiting for my settlement from the tee sa will you be to buy with my money while you can return and get your money back. [27:46] Is he okay let's move on with the other is talk about being states been space right why is it so we've got, these things are called the what are they called there the a court tax a seventy six and they're targeting them at the. Devices be on phone. And they're gonna have all the wonderful arm goodness like instant on low-power good bat so good battery light coming out of it a low heat up and i think kevin was on to something that that might be what. Microsoft is waiting for for Andromeda. [28:50] No but the but the news is that there's some powerful arm ships coming. And i think that whole segment of the market is. Be in fucking interestingly served. So why bother to increase the go is released ago i ira i totally agree that there's potential right now. [29:26] Because are going for price points it's back to school is a timing issue i think they had at that replace the surface three, pair to those other low and tablet lol what columbus ten tablet for our t based on things like that or the dells your news we're adam based they were they didn't have the they didn't have first power that you're gonna get out of this they didn't have the store that didn't have the memory so i think you're getting a lot of hardware for the. Good price point where, release the sales at the stuff we should we would need to make a bet on this and how many will sell within a year but they don't, well hold on a second this is a perfect time for us to move on to our next piece of news from Microsoft your and is June 30th right so let's talk about Microsoft earnings date released earnings this week. Add for the fur. Across the hundred billion in annual sales actually 110 billion. Most highly capitalized companies the stock Sonterra let's talk about where some of those earning there. [30:47] Alright and I think that might answer part of your question so commercial Prime. That was their biggest piece and when you that that's been growing more than double digits in some cases triple digits in some years in the last little while some quarters commercial Dynamics bring okay, aka the future right result well the present and the future right it's still it's father bishop president a future yes right that's all idle i can talk but every every division that got that got. [31:20] The billion dollar businesses so anybody be jealous of that but still that really jumped out at me surface four point six billion. And when I visit the clients doubt they'll have surfaces. It's actually really picking up it's definitely not up for Trent so 4.6 billion. The surface Market is growing I think just having a device at surface logo it's not like it's not like people lining up out front of Apple stores for devices I think that us a surface at a lower price point could have some appeal to students. Is that a typo no wow 27 billion for them but still. [32:21] Well that's only once they find five times. [32:26] So did that's quite interesting there i'm not sure how that revenue work but just just a few highlights i think microsoft. For a few years made a series of bad decisions and the starting to make some good decisions and Shane them together for some decent success. Alright more news that we've been tracking this since for the Terry Myerson he said that Windows 10 would run a billion devices. Everybody put a time frame on it. [32:59] I think it was less either way two things 1 Terry Myerson Microsoft anymore recently. [33:09] They're not a billion devices so as of June active devices are just over 700 million and. [33:24] Batsa Windows 7 to 53.4% Windows 10 39.4% Windows 7. [33:33] And you're a year ago more than half a windows seven so jumped from thirty eight point six percent last year to fifty three point four percent this year. Here's the interesting ps here's a chrysalis still five point nine percent of people running windows eight acts for that is weird. They're getting close after 3 or so. Interesting. [34:33] Alright you thousand three servers a leather jacket yes course. And with the news here is an interesting. Tidbit so Walmart in Microsoft Forge an alliance for retail and Cloud. So two things here microsoft is working with walmart is part of their digital transformation doctor moving a lot of work closed asher as well. Better Walmart if I'm not mistaken is the world's largest retailer or is that was on the retailer I don't know how you measure that. [35:17] Or soften walmart together looking at them making some headway against amazon's. Looks like Unstoppable growth and dominance of the retail space. Wow interesting Kroger.

Yeah could i can get to the digital camera look at it now yeah the book but let me get sears sears has. Yes. Okay they could have been Amazon and they just weather fight it but they didn't all right so I think that's it for the news David. [36:44] Music.

Sunny and gorgeous outside right now. The Microsoft they put their name on a nice tablet. Small for businesses but. [40:40] But everytime they brought out a device that they've done well with. It has been significantly different how was how was the surface laptop different except for the surface laptop how was the surface, it is quite a bit a hundred percent of different 10% different. A nice Dell laptop that would be exactly the same except for the. Did they just won't bother. [41:49] Okay and so you you want you to where the rant is due.

[43:40] Oh a lot so here's the word makers cuz I'm trying to make her 46 and make that we didn't say make or at all in that episode, you got to Maker's Mark which 146 Maker's 46, you gotta get the box cuz yeah well they only sold the business so i'm not up god got a calling fine oak fifteen year old. Fullest interesting person the back of the bottle it says it, what they say even the sky. Will them and i'm afraid is a pot. Possibly remember the guy we met for the work for makers. [45:03] Cool so let's see what they are good friend jim murray has to say about this. Is i think makers mark i find it sweet no more, yeah yes so makers forty six crush toasted hazelnuts. It's her up and initially thick. Excellent weight as those honeycomb notes go into overdrive. Adopting a weedy and Oakey spices. Which cranks up the points surprisingly light and. [46:26] This guy is all about the nose and especially the delivery so so much controls honey on the on the snow on the show sorry. Kathy cannot be anything other than a showstopper frankly magnificent I think I've met my makers. Hey Google I do like that that's a good so good whiskey I'm going to go with my McAllen okay. Could talk about do we need have a moment of silence oh yes well and it should go this moment of remembrance cuz lancaster when wanted that air fuck is be telling people why. So i was there about having pas there replay back area there's a big kentucky bourbons go still. [47:18] So where was this Warehouse. Yeah parts in kentucky okay in a warehouse is he interesting that's it just look like a big industrial building with of c one made out of wood was anyone her and. [47:53] Injuries doesn't say but that's but there are no in yours off. Concerns of the home of the sea into the ground whatever your alley that has the can back the over the frat boys they'll showed up so i send. What's the going to be on site to collect mothers saying all stop course they history of bourbon. Add Water rub it down. [48:43] Alright. [48:58] 92 is the year the Kentucky join the Union. I mean. [49:35] A1 [49:44] Yeah I would rather go with a few smaller buildings. [50:15] This is interesting to see justin of a belly and and we hop in the past about how. This is the age quicker than a whisky because or scotch whisky because the temperature of the the aging process bought this building it wont get hot inside. Same whiskey but which floor and which side of the building it was on because it would either you warmer or hotter, you made less humid if you'd north side of her third floor preferences and they actually would do that. [50:57] Rans like what like buffalo trace. Yeah those two confused but one of them that she has not grown Distillery they have something to make it and they they say we want a specific side of the building a specific floor for The Ragin. Some consistency year-to-year yeah. [51:24] And when the guy emailed you back about the Maker's 46. It's not a 10 year old bourbon almost Bourbons don't have an HD. I think there's a rule that has to be at least 3 weeks old. I thought that was the Whiskey and in the state. [51:59] So what you build distilling and drinking it as fast as it runs for. Yeah I'm around all of August except for the last weekend I'm going to New York for a few days take me to go visit his son Yankees game take the kids. [52:23] Disappeared.

Not going to call me and has batteries in that sense it is but this is maybe fifty percent bigger well rough usb actually. This is about twice as big maybe problem.

Here are your hosts the surface min i'm call incitement i'm david smith and we are the surface miss welcomed episode eighty six x eighty six, x eighty six its is that we have a name for the show we didn't do it okay so that's that pen shows in ten weeks david. Yeah yeah or is like you could say that's ten in a row ten and that's really eighty six in a row. Show her and we had a few other weird ones in their church are we lost track of count okay so it be eighty six h yeah so back in the studio for this episode recording with most of the gear we use recording with, i'm like last week's fine and why recording. In a slightly different venue with a few slightly different challenges than we're used to but where were we have challenges all the time but, they tend to change their many by think it if you're gonna be on the road alot it carry a lot more cables with you lose that doesn't produce is the zoom. What was revenue is that with a lot of money monsoons pump doesn't cost almost as much as this, can't hear that this is a cool read it is so we lot of fun with the pc users group but the canada aviation space museum recording that episode so yeah shut out of them thank you guys very much and the cake was, the cake was awesome the surface mints cable surface meant the furnace. Surface with cake i have to set fires i know that the first yeah yeah so that was quite it and then they give us with get in that it was delicious and his we finished it off it on the weekends gonna say i thought a little bit on the weekend but then it's gone. [1:43] It's got that was very gonna go buy a bottle of it so. Thank you was jeff who provider that i believe or was that to chris i'm not sure i don't either way thank you chris jeff and everyone else that the auto pcs group so let's move on this episode so. Couple things david you've put into our intro they wanna talk about all spot of ice or listed in. [2:06] Spotify news is that in i heart radio some other list in a lot of places yeah so i hurt radio that's interesting because they're paid curve bankruptcy back in march the pill of us. Probably not but there were there the largest north american owner of radio cc over in a fifty radio stations and they declare bankruptcy and the number to the date the canadian version separate is it concept okay but say technology the right. [2:33] Know that the app be sure sure about that thing so ownership of the real stations that's the problem is well the second largest one as well so, i never used the clear channel the rebranded back in two thousand eight and the second largest cup owner reassessment americans holds but half of what they on also declared bankruptcy recently so well, i mean think about if the say some talent. Loosely described his ass and somebody who really knows to the doing like ap with the idea and. You just need a few thousand dollars of equipment and the room right so this is for them then this is for, i free content enough to pay and answers and stop producers and things like that so dope try listen to us on i heart radio but actually to tell you the truth i'd rather people list was to a normal are says feet because then we get stats and then at some point we can, brag he has the brain right so i don't know disabled early starts are just made up and i think it's becoming even more more know but, but the lives in stats are right now industry standard stats and you can use it if you wanna monetize your park, and so will you listen to i heart radio you list your stature will you listen through other services like spotify that re hosted we don't get the listing stats right. Set what do you listen where you wanna listen which legalistic exact and if you're not listening well we don't care cuz you hearing this. [4:01] Alright so shall we move on david yeah hey guys what about the word of the week course we have taken her time away from this job because she continues to fail ho ho little car time to thank you for joining us now. So yeah for those who don't know where the week if, you playing along when you hear the word of the week for this episode and throughout the rest of your week and the rest of your eyes are weak ass for every happen to be here for the where the week you have to crank the word that we just hang offer hangover, alright. [4:35] So court tennessee's have a hangover city to three x the weight every tell you could hang only if he could rick jesse alright that the quote that i. Can you think of the guy working the sound board needs to add a bit of that so okay i try to get every time you hear the word haggar we have to take a drink z. Let's go to our next segment feature of the week. So feature the week swift keys of metal that new feature microsoft pots with ki way back kinda when companies that rent is two thousand eight or something that they bought them from two thousand ten but. What is working when they're gonna get to that place with key is a soft keyboard company. So windows phone had swift integrated and at the time go. Earlier this decade all the texting record for being beaten by people business with keyboard so it has things like trying to lift your, your digits like a farmer when every type the thumbs on a soft keyboard with a soft keyboard david you know they mean it, yeah have not not a physical keyboard like it having some classic blackberries or your mac subsurface as a hard the harbor keyboard but also has a soft keyboard, so what's you typing with your thumbs like most people do when they're taxing and the people in touch titus on the soft keyboard can help. So you don't have to lift a thumb and go to the next letter electric i'm go the next letter so fifty has built a drag so you can start. [6:08] Dragon to letters of i wanted to spell the word car i start with the sea mist rag my finger over to the a and then. To the are can i be done by sauce less movement to lift and put my phone back down but it also. [6:23] Music. [6:39] Just trying to get the retainer set up so i just got predictive technology based on. [6:47] Words like of si pacman hang and i have little my from at my guess that i'm the type hangover right and spins and, the people that weren't expecting records be released acting records will rely heavily on the project. Nature of it and not continue to type the word once it's predicted it that i use to love it on the windows phones and. And just plug it in it would be two or three suggestions for words it thinks you're going to type and you grab that it's got a five if so messages to your partner and you just kind of go along with what your foot was the section back and work to it so. Now the other keyboards have come out since then this flex e and a few others everyone has one either of william version writer but microsoft once windows phone knew it started. As a losing market share of yet have market should lose it to. Well what's microsoft's the phone was an obvious and not going to be a dominant platform they brought us with key out for all. And i do use it from time to time on my on my phone but guess what what their bringing it to windows ten oddly enough. So you could use it with your surface trade. Or maybe some future device that's coming out and that's much more interesting than yeah cuz i rarely use a soft keep on my surface. You do when your hall that and there's a pass for jeff to enter that still it has for it official recognition. [8:20] What will your children be websites with face sheriffs office towanda i wonder if i wanna face recognition work the handle. Yes okay so is that so anyways so swift key is coming to windows ten in red stuff i was in the red zone five previews right. Gonna try it out you can go that route for me what makes it interesting and maybe we should put this in the rumor section is the. It is the ability to use it for some new hard hard where that might be coming yes, hello tests news story of the week so david i'm gonna go to another history wanted to be the first one, okay and microsoft news now officially rolling out, to everyone on ios and android so my first new stories about in the comics off news of news from microsoft about microsoft news hot i love that i love so i want to cover that one first so what's new about that well. First off the rebranded their news app to microsoft news. And google's got and use other people and use apps. To all of the news content that microsoft will provide across android ios and sn will be coming to the news. I have a date we knew that they were going to bring the refreshingly know that their gonna rebranded so because they got such creative genius is at microsoft. [9:59] I came up with the phenomenal name of microsoft news what i'm install it you got me okay. [10:07] So this is basically all and i send news app. Yeah that's a bit of a refresh look so that's our first new story or second story is that david needs to speed up on the sound board not right now that's but that. Is that has never amritsar from are okay dog rented a red hair that's alright so what's our second easter what the second news story is that. Remote app and salsa coming to windows ten. So what is your amount happen stop will fit around for a while they have for with many things right so for instance if you have x box gold. More games with gold okay you would log into the website portal and you would, you could expense of dishes give it to you it could of the x box but you could pick a game hmm, and purchase it or get it for free and then have install on your x box for a next time its fuck launch loaded it would load the game and i can do the same thing to my android phone i can be. Looking at the app somewhere on the internet and have it on my clean stuff right to now you can do from access store to the device of choice. Which would also be a that's almost like they're getting ready for some sort of. Future device well that's also plan catch up but it's it's it's in the future when i think it's i think it's useful sucker's shattering. Again from the ozarks anything use a from a corporate perspective but. They'd be great for home use also for kids what up an app on your wife's phone cuz she never does it or not but thought only guys about us computer what is the she doesn't have whatever app you need. [11:49] Instead of being called into the her office to do it or your mother's computer okay okay yeah that's good so. That's the new feature but that's it all that earth shattering block. I think we're over seven features now i think this still some to come okay alright microsoft eclairs windows ten. April addition are ready for business shit. Right it's not or shattering again as you said that that's quick yeah so if three she came on may, yes and our engine our in june and they're saying it's ready for current printer business of current branch came out and now they're saying it was fairly quick and they they saying that they using ai eight track the success rate and. They were safe for devices are ready to accept it if corporations want to play it. [12:49] Of the customers that i deal with that are running windows ten most of them are experimenting with eighteen or three and i haven't seen this or to take up environments before and the last and the last round and what's the reason for that i think. I think they just have become less afraid of it okay it interesting interesting interesting. Alright shall we move on david yes well when we do the okay so office three sixty five and off start calmer getting a make over a visual interface take over alright. Not sure what you mean by that while the other gonna look different alot of red i just gonna be following more the you know. The usual way they try to make office user to use by hiding the features that you don't using. And put in the future sue to use out there a bit more thought lion yeah, so i understand they're gonna have a new singer rip new ribbon for an easy lady to have everything changing again but also that multiple ribbons how terrible and the rabbit took like half of the screen i know that wasn't the half but it was. Good job that was a good child at at that was back with reese for so low razz that. [14:06] Yeah right so without using all again there giving you the ability to have multiple to figure ribbon. Well as a regular then soon you colors do its been awhile since the refresh the look but also use your to. Find the same commands it use over and over by the same ten commandments or use the that if i start commands are use ninety five percent of it that was really if. That's a big argument to not bother with the full product like office right but the thing that the pet at ten percent your half of the ten ten top commander the same for everybody the other half for tiffany and how you work so. Does a new icons. And what will be interesting and some more ai mx of graph programming interface of you one who does my animation so looking for to seeing that. [14:58] Okay a little bit one of. Oracle is gonna be starting to charge for chaff starting the in january twenty nineteen and does this mean that we don't get to have hot every where it have to update to continue. I think well i think it's corporations right and after they pay a license and get pay support and. For the desktop version of java yeah microsoft does the same thing right. So yeah i forgot dollars forty dollars for the license and then a fifty is there a eighty four, this is us for support i guess that's per year and it's per person right so that's not insignificant to oracle's trying to make some money. What what is java se sweet i don't know. Per and pick what's an mp overs that sap at any and up is named user. Vs cpu does not persecute so that's user price of apple that the vice pres yeah well that could end up in some serious money. It can't for some organizations and if your. Java is most relation to some java so this gonna bill for to a bill for a lot of realizations up the possibly have budgeted for. Burchell licensing management services hire twenty java specialists to wrap up on it's in this area. [16:25] I know from dylan microsoft when they have audits they typically have a lot of leverage to stop cell or you'll right size some licensing agreements and corporations philly often feel backed in a corner and. They don't want to the lawsuit or the headlines for the added expense. Make a go so quickly was your job right see i open potentially lose their job if there if the feeling on it i i remember years ago like twenty years ago there was a family tablet with all the office licenses right place that. Right so let's. Interesting i wonder for his angels which away from using java as big as the foundation for alright let's move on okay so. Adobe is integrating ps services directly to next of office to sixty five, the other artie are benny pdf services in officer sixty five right but there's gonna be some new ones so you can only say this. Always expedia but for the last few generations bicep able to sew a lot so you don't have to get a pdf right or get distiller and you can edit things that are in pdf in word or an edge. So that the edit a pdf and word does do a good job how while i was the whole idea of having a pdf as a people could kneaded. How. [17:46] Yes all that that they would though that of course they could out of the pit was slightly challenge for them to do which is good enough protection. Okay well my understanding is well pdf render lot faster too so maybe microsoft please in pdf technology to render the men to the screens water take a look at that. [18:06] So he signature solution is being a ticket office to file a case that makes sense and. Okay looking for that off to keep an eye on anything can help me not print off pdf send signed the memory scanner again is a good thing. [18:24] If so that's okay what's next. What there was an article on the net on usb hubs for surface three it was kind of a fluffy article but it got me thinking to how much usb c i have run the house there. I don't have that much till usb c i have her house is my old windows phone that and uses that died on the lid is archer you have a surface. Tell that fuck to that's true but i never actually mia's b c cable and what's up with the camera cats answer your question about our cat charged it so you can church that so i've just thinking about what usb c devices i have. Inside my work laptop which the dell if my surface book to i have. Sam sung galaxy and my son has a chromebook. So of other certainly are a lot of compatibility issues and maybe the thing the pc repair that's my hp that i have for my client tell you my client is okay. But they try to be locked up for doing work for them yeah sickly and it's got usb c on it and i heard a rumor today to a. That apple with your next launch in september will be. I don't use what impressing but will be supporting us see to some extent so i don't know that means a lightning adaptor is gone. Which would be awesome i don't think it will be i think more mostly the charging cable will have lighting on one and the usb c on the other so can connect directly to mac. [19:57] I think very happy but out might my point was just that. [20:04] It's not taking that long for us pc to become more popular not as long as it took for the original usb year those are the things real estate job coming in a bit quicker than i thought it was. I'm glad one of apple took it on of course one connector olivia when connected room unless like one apple one with wireless charging bull. For sure i mean why would apple just knock it where the charging port for him to do something and that's what i see them doing it to people oh that's interesting at pulled. Well should we start that rumor how we could this week for that section show fan and don't take this sarcastic flight about apple. Does it almost sound circus reviews say it's the battery life on an iphone is very good. [20:48] So having a port that you can charge all the time isn't that important for the first couple years about. Sure i suppose my pc but you that info wireless charging is nice to be become a little bit more ubiquitous so i know that there are some cars that have wireless charging built in table area put your phone to get wireless charging and. Can bluetooth right there as well so. Basically put it in the holder see not texting either while you're driving right for you tax with your voice which is for tax ellie's legal but texans with key. The trip sorry i just thought that was interesting just if apple through the weight behind it fine but if i was them i wouldn't bother i built that lady for another generation and then. Skip the poor church alright anything else yes one more one more hola before you do that. A little bit of reading if this is our last new story me to be really crisp on the news out for a while okay okay okay well then. So what is this i don't know sir, al makes windows up take a smoother with what this is its a lie all along okay so. Talking about the uptake and how quickly people are installing eighteen or three me other piece is how many people are having issues with. What eighteen or three so at an and the part are you set for it so not sure bus keep really real i suspect microsoft when they release eighteen of three whatever they did they don't necessarily know it works with all harbor yet. [22:27] Because there's a limit all harbor a whole softer and so. Or they will know certain things that won't work with the block certain things so there they were manually blocking certain hardware in manually approve in certain harper and you know that worked okay but now they have some ai interface there's so. Can a proven block card for it much quicker ever itself right so. Yeah and i can guess a baby east on past experience with something doesn't work on this dell at work on these other ones well the same chipset or whatever right. So that's so that's how microsoft is making it less painful for people upgrade me that i do with the uptake of eighteen three fix uppsala keep looking. [23:10] Music. [23:19] Right that's it for the news now what are we gonna go heard any rumors from microsoft. Well not message for microsoft but from the twitter verse. My twitter stock by the waist onto the roof this year old has a couple limbs interesting with all the stuff the trampling the dow is down but the tc is up. When i'm pot stock and shopify hot stock isn't doing that good to check today. Now does it got legalized today all the october seventeenth is the day. Three say this but will talk more about this feeling with defect yeah so rumors more people lose loading windows ten arm on their old windows phones. [24:01] Have you done this i have not why not have just not gotten around to it yet next my wife still using my windows phone as as her personal phone, she should be getting you for from work any day now was waiting for that arrive but she's in that is a personal phone cuz she has no old old blackberry as are work for, who who okay so that, so back to the folks that past the is jeff that ass to the pc is group i am wondering if people be a shoehorn it onto an arty. [24:36] Well i'm sure i can the question is what would what value would you get by doing that you move away from the inside by you that goes for this as your not losing that your double housing. That's fifty okay if not okay i'm thoughts up alright and, message for that section so not sure if this is something we should create as a new segment are not for now let's put it in the r and r, are not okay rants and raves right so but did we should have an app of the week segment what do you think. Share share the so many windows apps at least three or four i can think of yes is so well application called your trumpet. Okay and what it is a basically a replacement for the volume control and gotta put a picture in the us in the. The shona and shona out now if you have been using this david you could have turned the volume down on your browser without turning down the volume on that c note that's exams you would not of polluted this. Recording with that scene at peace you're forgetting that you have future you has added that section out so people won't understand what you're saying that's true. [25:56] To night you can edit this uh yes or get at it nothing out atlanta flows better but as an example you can. A picture that you basically have not just one massive on control and not just you know a few different devices you can do an application by application basis. I like that they would. [26:16] You know i do a lot of web conferencing and such and to be able to turn on the volume on skype early sky pop believe all of the things down with the would be nice exactly how. I recommend people try it out i like it at a nice name to the terrible name. It's okay to install suffer while recording is not sure okay.

But that's okay being very saw now do they share when you bring in what its called the crown royal apple. Crown royal apple flavored whiskey flavored whiskey kinda like all the flavored vodkas but i'm not with fan of flavored whiskeys typically and it flew of us are flavor like space size so this came in a little bottle attached to a bottle of. Regular countering say harvest ugly have recently when her ms so and leave her missed we like to try things are just that we like the things that her we have never tried yes we do. Usually we like to ft i think so we have a tried. That we like yeah that is the goal the more things that we think alike i think and a nice bottle of tomato and for fathers day which i forgot to bring i'm pretty sure like it is bayside to cost bayside so let's hear it open up here. [30:04] Here you go but it's not a cork well flat it smells like.

[31:19] What what what toxic sooner than the camera that is a member those flavored lip glasses and girls use to wear and guys too i guess still do. [31:28] And the head of the dumb stuff yeah okay for me to drink the genius bar. The month he has no to say a couple of things we would talk about in the after party were talk about. Hope pots being pot being legalized yes yes in the apparently october in all of canada as opposed to state but say they're province by province so that's good but. It's taking them like two and a half years legalize pot. Tell the post office is really looking for to it because it had declining business for years cannabis post right exactly. However they are now going to be the only official delivery agent will they already can deliver things with certain constraints you can. Ask for id you can ask for age and all the sort of things to and that's how alcohol is delivered. [32:31] Do you think that would be a big deal people by little and how close usually delivered in a glass of. [32:38] Picture but you can order have your in the lc go will deliver by count the posts and they'll check you for it okay so shifting gears little bit and. What about the carries hiring five or more people between now and the end of the year right you supply the of a pretty interesting it department of transport for them really and from them i just got a job there but it's over in blocking him but the one global. Get stock options. Well do you have stock of her to have spark up so somewhere else to sign art of suck there so. Yeah i don't think i'd want to drive to buckingham doing in school system too high to drive and work from. When will the by that doesn't excuse yes yes. Alright so david takes bring that was keep but this on to that get no i think it was it's a bit overpriced that was free yeah and that's okay that's four x is yeah i could see making a mark making a mix drink with this maybe. Or having somebody are trying to get. Can a person drunk which we shouldn't be doing this or old men friday if thirty all that the if they think can. The sort of sweet drinks are very popular but with other people. It was a war of what ifs i know which is where this is great this would dot edu say hey girl what if we blender this with the chest might be something palatable you could you. [34:12] Like this taste like melted popsicle popsicle are so sickly sweeper frozen only tasted but then it may melt cuz that freezes you try it lowers the gold is les paul tiles right yeah it doesn't taste like. [34:26] Wow this would be getting crushed ice ice cream. [34:31] Baby hot on ice cream so pie yeah for this and realize cuties like apple pie a la mode they are okay that's what you think apple pie yeah except it does not as soon as later and doesn't have any tart tell sweet yeah and you'll. But like granny smith that of course that if it so that's all i got yeah anything else. Okay good charted we had opted me do without the sound board and letting you do the sound board for one note, it's that was hartford i thought that which is i knew it was that post separation anxiety right away when so much that was the. Giant pauses and the double clicks if their served as if there was worth it i what that need to do that but i saw how much it hurt you every time i had history clearly so you so you're messing with me and yeah i went back and fixed it. Oh very double bass direction we wind down okay alright. [35:32] Everyone have a great day we'll see you when we come to it so we will probably not recording a we talk about plate recording next week we have nothing by that locales okay adults of all start with self clean was the only have all start full stop. Why don't we thought so room so. Yeah this prayer last episode in this run weeklies okay this is next week last week of school for the kids. Does the off chance will build up so next week but don't count on it then not start when say here right and then the white yes i'mma. Yeah it will rock is away so i have to look after yeah and i think he's graduation okay so. Where they came out for dinner after that graduate from middle school we saw a few of voice left with a few minutes left very few left in our jurisdiction mostly moving to either they're going all the way up to, okay great okay to eight or they're going great seven to twelve, who in our area we have a middle school but it's in the same building as ice yet doesn't mean they're moving that but anyways. You're now we're now going into the summer season it will be a radek. Releases at best but will hit the ground running again in the fall. I expect we'll try to get out of one or two episodes over the summer at least one a month over the summer and then a few special episode maybe remote yeah i'm gonna and i'm gonna few places i'm going to. [37:06] But work off your in boston a security conference and florida so we're or doesn't really waiting for new.

Here are your hosts the surface men. I'm calling smith and i'm david smith and we are the surface missed and this is our second ever live show david where are we today we're at the aviation and space museum in ottawa and why are we here today. We were invited by the bottom pcs are very. Okay we got a live audience if you'd like the. Okay thank you but my thunderbolt we got an audience mike going as well and i ought men to the audience a little bit there my little fake life in this so. To thank you for having us this is episode eighty-five nine a row. I think it is i don't think we've ever done on a roll so they bought with seven eighty five for the row and this has been once a week that's correct that's correct so i. What are the show. We both live audience and those of you listening whenever wherever later on in time, and that's one of the beauties of podcasts is they don't three time linearly theory you could listen to show before we recorded. I don't know how you do that but i don't know if there is a of but that's of thanks again for having us. So for those of you that are not part of the studio audience the live audience we just get a small presentation on podcasting and how we when our podcast in our actually do a podcast so. [1:43] Anything you wanted to let them let's let's do it let's do it so i think one of the things we need is hey guys what about the word of the week. So he court and i don't think we're gonna ask you for where the week you've been very uncooperative lately so before you know you wanna have the audience to so yeah and not use the one i put on the screen here right so before eighteen or three courtenay you did a great job of providing where the wake, after the two to three update your not helping very much so we gotta mike for the audience's anybody wanna suggest or the week, i'll tell everybody what were the weekends so during the show if you hear us. Say that word you get to take a drink of but every like to drink so turns out of some of our friends list on the show early on i found that we said the same words over and over so they turn into a drinking game and so we wanted tonight to so we started using the word the week. Okay update up got to hate so sounds like word and a question there we also the word of the week is up day. I sent a few times already i'm gonna water soon okay alright so if your playing along every time we say the word update. You get to take a drink alright so anything else we have to do from a. From a housekeeping perspective day that i don't think stuff looks like we'll. We have that we have a question the week we don't normally have a question we'd like to but we'd like to manual record a website so just go there there's a link and you can record a question right so. [3:16] Week before one of the list of the show and one of the members to the audience who can a redundant now city could ask on our light microphone. That was kind enough to go to our website and use our. Leave a message option and left us a message asking a question so why does the message well let me play, hi david hi caren it's just to buy. I have from a pc users can. I have a question for you actually it's about microsoft surface and it went wrong tee. I bought a couple should the settings for our mentor and sister. Armed to christmases ago i miss you be working this is a before and there's no problems with some. The best legs are quite suitable for some processing browsing now person around when there you to wraps. Where is the future four g clearly there has not been. I need upgrade from eight point one so i'm wondering if they're dead in the water over will be continues reading is dull fashion. However i'm just wondering what the future holds for the servers are t. [4:44] Okay thank you for all that's a great question so i've got to it somebody that they would zero zero what i've had them you had them so i. Surface r t for those of you don't know was one of the first surface is launches same time as the surface pro i have one of those well have have a home. But it was on an arm chip and the reason it was was to compete with the device at the android tablets and the i pads out there that were using arm ship now the thing about arm ships. And as we talk about the past able to three big things will they don't use a lot of power right so the great for battery life, and they don't prove slot heat will does the battery light on the cheaper to buy right cheaper to buy so that also instant on to yelp most mobile phones, you press the buttons on it and it is very very little power six power when it's and it's, who is state but it's still on so you can get a full day's charge out of out of them which is much more difficult due the next eighty six or x sixty four based shit and i act if you compare the surface and the surface or t. They were the same screen size but the surface it was about half the thickness right and because of generate less heat it didn't need as much real estate to cool it so. Microsoft's first foray into tablets. We'll surface it and the surface pro their launch simultaneous of pro was using an i five and the art using arm ship and they have to build a special version of windows called windows are t to sport that device. [6:14] Now unfortunately those devices were not as popular as microsoft at hope they took a nine hundred million dollar right down on them, they gave them away i think the artie's re hundred dollars there come away at conferences and as prizes for user group size at a conference and they said it were given the way to this boys and girls club in the, whoever it was said rid of these i pads away to the place and girls club yet exactly so. They they weren't for all that successful compared to the later generations of ice and it's funny cuz microsoft, as a company if you if you fall of them at all i heard some people from a different versions of windows well guess what up until windows three no one really used it same thing with. Dos up until three no one really used it up same thing what office right up with the word free to microsoft, internet explorer three right hyper v three that would microsoft it stride do the first time is hey were poking around where of what i'm sure if we can make if we can do anything here and their second version is hey we've caught up to the market leaders were doing, now if they were doing two years ago and then version three is like is there parody release so it kind of funny that work that way for the surface as well. But back to your question to microsoft is not announced any new releases for it last update was update three to believe is twenty sixteen. They've got some blog posts about what's new and i paid three but there aren't any official microsoft updates coming for it they basically. [7:45] It said it on and of all it's on the left a funeral still run however there are sd two or three interesting side project it is an arm device so there are ways to we can you can get windows ten i'll tiana. [7:58] Microsoft is got windows on arm we talked about that the show three four times and there are people that have found a way to load windows on, that i would make a lot less useful for, your sister and your mother but it more of a hobbyist of ice it's not a device that microsoft is actively developing and supporting for because it's an operating system that no one's developing for. So as long as it meets your needs and has something that you can use it for your feel free to keep using it. [8:27] Oh yeah with another question yeah i just wonder if it if it's based on the arm chip there is the new windows on arm that that's right that when the new windows and arm the whole requires snapdragon eight thirty five or better, which only was released in late last year. So i have bills bills i think of the court tack like for for a forty five i think the r t which are for five generations back at least and. But there are people there try shoehorn it into their, there's a lot of extra hardware on than on the snap dragon eight thirty-five to help with some of the emulation required for the win thirty two apps. But but again it is non ship and there's lots and lots of different android very ios is out there another i'll t o s is out there that people are shoe warning on to all kinds of devices including. The artie's i don't think mike even of microsoft microsoft could trip ported over but they wouldn't spend the money now. Yeah source of surf party or the surface to their sagely orphan machines are ate up. I think it's time to. [9:41] Set you story of the week that david you've got the news for this week okay whatever it come back to feature that we ll. So i jumped ahead up no no problem the from so. What kind of from the past to the present to the future to keeps going around and around in tell the show enough essentially what is a windows phone in copy taxes trade conference in trying it this week. Okay so microsoft's not making windows phones the last windows phone sold out of microsoft store but a month and a half ago everett thinks it's dead and here comes and tell. Basically it's the full version of windows are gonna be riding so it thirty two bit or sixty four bit running adam chip like us yeah it's an intel chipset suppose there are tripping at the full version of windows so you could run phone type things like. Talking although whoever uses that for iphone you could talk of you can look at my kids to know that. So really it's shortages in the makes of do there until with you that there really is no product at this point time. Lol intel there are some things coming out with us on know what is going to be the future well yep this will intel's lost a lot of credibility in that mobile space so that the adam chips are essentially not available anymore adam with lt, was canceled and all the mobile devices, and tablets are all using arm chips and now microsoft as move their os over the over to arm as well as arm servers and is rumors that. [11:20] To be a mac that runs on our there is so, i guess intel's feeling the pressure to try to do something and innovate so that's exciting and now this is not a shipping product this is proof concept it would like a reference platform for other companies like dollar whoever to make the actual project okay. So that's interesting um what are we see if we can get any demo version to review i wanna demo surface hub yeah weekly will have to make those first okay. So it's so simple life studio audience does anybody here know what windows ten ass modus. [11:55] That pano okay so one person so it's basically. Lock down version of windows ten that doesn't allow you to involve install windows thirty two or sixty four bit apps or just you'd just the store apps, does the store apps so which is grey from a security point of view you can mess up your battery and all that sort of thing but the problem is the same problem that was with the r t is the beach really can't run all the apps that you wanna run. [12:22] So microsoft does away when you purchase a computer with the windows ten ass boat, that you can switch it to the full mode and you could run all the apps and happy events that this vengeance of the focal to send. But in one of the latest belts of the insider program. There's a switch to s mode so that it's gonna be interesting to see what exactly what happened that cuz would you be able to take a lap top install a couple of the apps that you need that are outside of the windows ten s world and then lock it back down, so the user can mess with that we don't really know yeah so. What's interesting so i don't i think ten s is still a solution looking for a problem problem exist but people aren't willing to restrict themselves that much it meant. [13:09] My understanding on i'm going you can go as smote. To all rifle pro you can come back well there it is that's that's where we are getting a rumor is with red zone five you in the fall you will be able to rumor. So we shall see will not be great if you go set up your mom's computer and. [13:33] Just lock it back down again verse there are lots of select on a computer and do it without that still another way to do i working endpoint security business so. Right that's okay if people don't have secure systems theory. [13:51] Alright what else we'll manual to las the news is that microsoft's experimenting with underwater data centers water cold water cold okay. So i guess are basically at volkswagen beetle to the center cell and we're gonna go to water cool data since there might be water cooled it desires to meet the article that says background on off after the robbers sure there are, but that's interesting they don't have to take up to much real estate the nine that night in the his way power. That's right and you could build a greenhouse on top of there at that and how that's okay so where they does is a retirement. It's in our island and there was one other than they lost data centers there cuz of the tax structure they've had okay and so well what happens if they go outside the international the that than that in at the two hundred mile limit. Thing about international waters and that's interesting like it okay cuz there's a lot of expensive cooling and heating. That the heating powering which is the energy and then cooling it's really expensive thing to do so great that is jen eight data centers they've really done a lot of research the finding that it's not really the heat that's the issue it's. Dust and humidity, and so the building and doesn't find they can run them at seventy degrees celsius or hyatt hotter the problem is getting hot in that you can't have a human come in and service them but they don't. They don't but that people don't go and services things golf, sometimes you have to give to do a little bit of wiring or whatever the typically there module are they shut down the entire module yank it out. [15:24] Yep lets that's one of the developments they found the make and save a lot of money on their on the cooling bills so make sure they got really good air filtration and for both humidity and dust and yet you like scuba diving, i don't mind it and you like data centers and use of other computers i think i've already and it all gonna natural. Alright is i think that's it for the news. [15:50] Music. [15:58] Or so well so that they would it looks i wanna talk a little but it would just insider program you want talk with the insider program alright we'll let you do that okay so. I assume there must be some people here were run windows insider belts to. Anyone hear it to me in hs yes yes and it seems to be less exciting now back in the days you would be an entirely inside of or cover up bigger and t to get blue screens or sell. That doesn't seem to happen as much but well depends on which ring you're on i suppose. It's so so basically the windows insider program is it away for microsoft to get many many more people test scene there, their windows product and and then they've extended this other products like. X box office success excedrin and basically it's a way that microsoft get feedback on features can't keep acting performance get in windows is incredibly important to get feedback and hardware to allow. Microsoft two. Produce a better product that cynical people say it's a way to hot not hire developers re hire testers and just put it all out on the users but. It really isn't that it's a but. If you go down this offer development what is an element of that i'm sure i'm sure it if it saves the money they won't be getting any but the such university when it comes to windows out in the real world, vs what you can possibly happen a data center for testing that it's much much better for microsoft. And they also will do it with feature so though sometimes sent certain features to certain users in certain beast of the users and build compare how people except certain types of features weather works well and that sort of stuff. [17:37] And especially if you got older hardware or esoteric hardware that something that microsoft wouldn't necessarily have access to in their test, labs it it's really good feedback to them and for us to know whether you're your device can handle some of the new features but also they wanna get that lemon tree back that, hey this combination of video card storage controller and wife i controller seems to be problematic and you would never really seen that combination before so we are really tested it, what and that they have run the problems but by people have a tendancy to put their secondary computer on the insider build so they didn't get some of the higher end hardware, a fire and video cameras on the inside of bill too much sleep didn't really discover their problems and tell they released but. No system is perfect but i guess another big thing that the real reason for this is because every six months microsoft's coming out with the new version of windows ten worse back in the day would be every. Could be three to five years within the new version of windows ten or do windows and how much you call the service pack a new version which case it be approximately every two years lol you and then windows seven and one, ridiculous of him at two thousand nine and one service pack in what two thousand and twelve to the load doesn't wanna, and that was it so for consumers is pretty easy weather on the insider build or not you get the updates usually right in the middle of an important meeting. But and your continually updated never six months there's some features that most living you never really notice for corporations becomes much more. [19:10] Popular because they just can't understand how to upgrade every six months late. You mean update upstairs week of sorry update every three vx yeah might be up they might not be upgrade sometimes it's not that should i spend alot of my time actually talking to businesses about how to. It just updates and upgrades and how to think about that now to manage it because it is a new frontier for them. For the idea of this the rings microsoft in their own internal testing may have rings there's like the slow ring the fast ring they have a skip ahead rain. And then really in your heart ration you should have the same sort of right similar brings people in your organization that are okay this offer earlier and then others that are later because. You can spend a lot of time tested and year is just like it outside your knocking of discover everything internally it's a big mind shift on a different way of working to for processed you organizations even standardized on one servicing channel are having trouble, this keeping pace what's the service in general so it's of outside of the insider, the rings are insider branches of microsoft has really three. [20:19] Four i guess of the rings or servicing branches for. [20:26] Of release offer not not the inside of bill so that god current branch which is what most poem users use my does your of a choice well yeah but well. Get pretty much you do while but and. If you're using current brat you get updates as soon as they become generally available. Than about current branch for business which typically falls about two to three months after that but after they've had enough feedback from the current branch users to find out that it really is a stable they believe is soap. Current branch are it late be as right leep it an accident and then there's. Then after the other side concurrent grant for business there's a long term servicing branch which is really designed for kiosks and things like that shit's. Yeah there's right and then there's a served one which is really just a ring and. Can't remember what it's called now it's just do the terms giving me but it's platform early release group which is typically the latest version of the surface yelp. Common issues from del common machines from hp things like that but the ones at the. Some lot of rigorous testing on themselves up so that's kind of. The rain that that's only useful if you've got some of microsoft provisioning tools like sister configuration manager because it identifies those for you and let you know that a we've really test the updates on these and if your business running them up you might wanna. [22:02] Release them a little bit earlier than that current french for business there available to you but. So it's kind of another ring kind of another service and channel but it's not. So to sign up you just you could do it actually they hit the it since they have insiders that window stock com but really it just go into your windows ten machine and go and updates. [22:26] Okay and the other was something else you want to talk about it you wanna talk about they look at that's it wants to install a cumulative update. That could be a problem could it off but you can just go here and i just have it on the fixes and drivers for this particular computer but you can choose which of enrolled you can choose. The active and the skip ahead with your right now but right when they get ready to released the dip their developers don't stop. So some people will go ahead and what's called the skip ahead and they'll start working on, the next version of windows some testers well as well as some users one thing that may be where they've mention night i believe it's still current currently problem if you get onto insider builds you can get off them. Except for very narrow window that after a future release actually does come out at that point you can actually go back to the release channel but other than that narrow window of a couple weeks, the only way to get back off of that is true basically reinstall windows eight so yeah there's that two weeks where the current and the, and the release of the same but actually um i didn't hook up your today reset this pc. And you could just do it you can reset your pc just from here and you can save some of the settings so it sounds like the old days of when you had to restore pc that may you had to go get your floppy site. Get yes. So if if if if if your order if you're on twitter and you follow don sr car i she actually tweets. [24:05] Regularly about the latest insider builds but she also tweets when that two week window is, let you know that you can talk now is your time to get off the train and and lock in to either another ring or on or off the insider program for a while. Yes i use to do that with my being computer and then when it gets closer to release time on my main computer at my work computer i don't get to control but my main home computer and i just switch it back in for. Heard any rumors for microsoft. No have you yeah you're talking some you devices coming up by david what the microsoft's continue other continue to have rumors about microsoft coming out with the few days i like the rivers don't know, no can do perhaps okay so some of the but we have to careful because you got nba slide. True but i i have not heard of anything under nba but also until somebody else was mentioned the rumor in a public forum we can really talk okay but in the last day both paul throttle and me to fully talked about three new. Code names for hardware projects come in a microsoft they got that what what is it the libra for. Carmel and something else with a drama mead is is this kind of tablet slide show iphones i drama will thing from it so. [25:31] Huh that's really not met la dix hills right well is not because he's not a river rumor has it that. There will be some cheap surface devices were talking artie's earlier and for awhile microsoft had what was the surface three not the pro three that was running on adam ship that's no longer available and so. Right now the lowest and surface you can get is an i three and it's it's more of a. Lap top productivity machine than a tablet more but help you can use it definitely consume but it's a creation devices well right so. That's a gap in the line up that prt devices fill that one point. Or it hurts or answer for three of a three which was not a pro but for a ten inch one and but it looks like they're coming back with some devices in the well in the sub five hundred dollar range three to four hundred dollars. Right in the i pad pricing price point and now these are rumored not to be arm shift. But there's a lot of arm devices coming out third party manufacturers who should make their methods farm chip chirp to do that then. There's the surface up to that which we see videos of but tell us david what karma is not the new x box to working on it this mckay. And what's so no no no carmel is the surface pro six surface pro six such surface pro five kinda came out quietly for really calling it the five well they won't call those six or they will call the colonel new surface pro came out in the fall. [27:09] And do they do have a service for four but they didn't do this whenever such a surface pro but i thought that's what the original surface. Hi five was called surface pro so talk about confusing and and get things running apes yes okay so what's libra. I'd i'd. [27:29] Be there to low costs are so low cost tablet alright and a drama is the full double device. That's coming out baby maybe well that's the rumor alright i think the furnace rumors that low-cost surface device well yeah we've had speaking from a from people that we know at microsoft as well. Yeah. Yeah we're name names so that we don't get traveling control so it did not reach anyone starting rumors spread the rumors. [28:02] Okay don't worry no one really listens to it it okay. So i think that's it we ready to wind down the show i think we're alright so let's, say goodbye to the listeners outside of the room and well hello to the with hello who is in the room cuz we're still gonna be here for a while.

Well thank you we said it is the doubling liberties irish whiskey, so they would have these ms ayers didn't centers right well we should a women and see if its are we lot open up on here. Ask for forgiveness not permission right to drink oasis. [29:48] But yeah they up the could do that did you sunglasses. It's gonna be wasn't there was a whole bunch of cops at the at the tent. Now get in trouble they did huh that's fine i'm at au no there's no glasses not on odor smell. What every whiskey spelling and setup donuts lol that's looking out dublin liberties when we could do that for this nothing dom. [30:24] Who all there period. [30:31] These are the best organize people what that's been are gonna is gonna be a wreck will the well we use to have a thing of coffee pockets for who what's have copied. Okay so called something like that yeah yeah so where's ireland in here. [30:55] I don't what's this to fifty eight he's ireland. [31:09] And the space the carcass damage which means we have to pass it still rather like a from the finland ferry in the car cuts. My friend barb would be very proud of me still till this little itself and there's no park is so. There are no i'm not finding this year it is a fairly new. [31:37] Liberties irish whiskey from da blend. Yeah but look i gotta tell my mom i read the bible tool to all who has good effie's or has three witnesses so. [31:50] Alright so let's look it up online you to do that and have a. [32:00] Looks like this is this one look like it was bought in quebec you can see illegally brought across the board is legally baucus for. Thank you so it say it doesn't look like it's got any dies it take it of its a golden colored whiskey it's not that dark caramel that a lot of a lot of the steelers use to make a whisky look like it's aged on oak longer. [32:25] Or a butt bourbons use to in bourbon they typically char the bear. [32:33] If you hit four hundred ears of very light knows. So is this what we learn just while you have to use the opposite hand will drinking with the microphone again because of i guess i but i don't normally use this i usually use mike stand with. What are the other mike's didn't want to add that i don't normally let it tack really good it's really it's nice on the palate as a very smooth finish it. I know tires but it tastes almost like a space i'd like the glen live it. [33:12] It is much like lane out so i'm a fan of adding water to whiskey yes sure and there was a they don't care if there is science behind it. They say about twenty seven percent because ethanol mixes with water well it it releases a lot of the aromatic ss of that get to held in solution when concentrations above that. Hope we're three hundred sixty now everybody who did you slushy. No so you take it out just accent of your car overnight no no no no no to sit with my thoughts about it yeah ice crusher on your fridge yeah he get the ice out of that and then. I really like i only is a lot of ice for with cuz i don't like ball for any type okay. Like that swedish whiskey hose up a mac mac myrna. That middle one of me is mosquito bug in swedish it that was that that number the brad brought wants that's so. The the the ice really took alot of the romo way so that helped a bit. But they don't realise for this this is like this is good finish it's funny that is what can try sorry i really had please join us they call it the oak double and it's but as you would think by that it would be very smokers on the but it's not. Rich amber colour thanks outlook is it the small kits the pete the kids if the burning pete the kids at the smoke the rich malt she knows multi nose with aromas of dark fruits and soft within notes. [34:53] Smooth and spicy with notes of caramel and christmas cake like apricots but not christmas cake. Smooth and last seen with blink green pepper on the tongue will that. [35:10] Okay so for those of you hear listing we at one point were toying with the idea of taking the segment releasing of the separate podcast i we had registered the pot cask. Domain and then within a week of us we're just about ready to do it that some be released podcast called the podcast but we have their domain name to move a podcast called the podcast something like that yeah so we, we sold the domain to them what you so that for what a bottle of whiskey yet to the invite and they sent me cash instead oh that's no good are well, if they were they were they were in there and we have had email so figured that access to some the bourbons but. No but they did say if we ever come down that way we could do a tasting on the show. That's a good it's a good show that really then it really dose a job by then it fell bad about giving up to me to much better job with that we have a yeah you couldn't do to podcasts for billy doing one right that's fucked up okay of self. So this is a part of the show that we call the universe the whiskey podcast or the after party after show yet. [36:16] The mica still rolling in it have a question what come back it's eighty's well its running see the way for that got a what could that is mike. [36:32] What are the topics for you shows of. That's a good question partly partly than. Or we'll try to do or will do a special topic are in the special debt right so where we were gonna be doing a review episode allow we're gonna get a bunch of, you accessories design for the surface and will review them with the remote so it will have a theme if there's a lot of the if there's an event like a microsoft conference will typically take use from that, sometimes we get suggestions from people like yourself for few twitter but it's usually whatever is top of mind, often times will talk about what we did that week i was always there mention i haven't written a microsoft exam in a long long time up i don't think i've written one this century, i should etc one in two thousand seven but other than that i had written on the century they didn't actually write questions for so wasn't quite fair to take to, think of the exams but it's so i took my first one in a long time at that one yesterday and passed it but it's the different testing experience when you never see any questions before, thank you. [37:51] Hi as and doesn't deal close to like her i was interested hear that then you mention that microsoft was going to coming out with some smaller devices they seem to be. Hurting for smaller devices like physically smaller devices like phones yes and tablets. I wanna make things is i think a lot of people are now lot looking at their email on their tablet or phone rather than the laptop or equally. And because microsoft. I don't think they have a windows phone anymore right now and and hardly any months making a windows tablets. [38:39] So is anybody making with those type thing of sir sam's on few others if you have. I'm at a visit to best buy and and staples almost all the time every other week and i haven't seen windows sam sung windows tablet or it or phone. Maybe they're out there but. Those two counties are bringing then i don't think the hot the surface tablet but yeah it's expand out of the icu right so that that that microsoft really didn't do well in that segment the yeah and. So now they're hurting because well they gives am very big advantage was okay now i access. It's easier accessory mail be at android then it is the windows right so i took it to put a great point sent and and now were windows is bugging people to. I'm microsoft budding people to have windows sunroof and. Sure of grab on to their android system yet and no it's it's like. [40:03] Do what i think a lot of people would prefer to keep them silo ge keep their the windows stuff separate from your android stuff. And you think that bothers sick possible security issues like. If i have windows is and to your android system and if you have a pc security vf here you could. Who the beer losing information and both android and windows so what's it really good point so what bike or seeing right now is that microsoft because they're not a partly because they're not of. Selling hardware devices in that mobile arm space so that the android the ios, what think that what the really doing instead is are they going back to the roots say we're not really hard we're company, at the heart of things worse offer company and so microsoft is doing is shipping software like or connor like i'll look like office lens like word excel, that runs on android runs on ios and, providing the services that people are used to getting for microsoft regardless of platform and they're pretty the management tools so if you take a look at the most popular corporate management tool for managing, android devices and ios devices actually into so they're they're really doing well in corporate space. [41:33] But if you look at the home users etc like said i read a lot email on my on my phone, i want to get home from the office i rarely take out my laptop you know about computers all over the house iphones usually nearby usually grab it may use that but guess what i am using outlook i'm using my live idea i'm using, get us out alive add one my making a buzzing my microsoft account but yo, i'd still using of microsoft services i'm still checking my outlook mail that look dot com as well as my office to sixty five so they got me on that side. But what we're seeing and remember the whole but microsoft first not surfaces they were really trying to find a space that didn't exist and create that reference platform for other vendors to jump onto. So now we're seeing maybe we see our base devices from h p from a surf from fujitsu from other companies are making those. Mobile type windows devices and restarted iced of love the dell venue pro and hopefully they come back up something like that. No but when you going to best buy and that. No the tablets or windows based anymore though they have all mike if you go to best buy the actual microsoft us section there that is their laptops and for services well surface is a tablet. Mean alot of people think so. I am in college service there there's saya why yeah but if we read the books on it but the thing is with a tablet you that have. [43:10] Like unit tablets for two under dollar twelve hundred and fifty dollars so. Can you read the email on and say that i have a couple tablet around the place but you not gonna have of a couple five hundred dollar laptop or surfaces around well and that's not a threat of microsoft right people didn't buy them so they stop producing. Never is put them out without a phone and without a small tablet there, i kind of put themselves out of the game at that that's what the rumor is chosen not to play that game or they will with the remote right with room service like fort for top building cars anymore right that's okay visite again i setting a mustang they're not building cars by, so they decided they can't compete not market or it's not worth it to them let others build those devices and then do what they're good at. What is trucks suvs and. [44:02] The business decision the end of the day who is now the now there bugging people with android devices to two. Have windows take over their android phone and that i don't do that kind of bugs me. To me they can't get an iphone six. [44:26] What's you wrap up the recorder then i think so thanks is it really good whiskey this minds me of to carl's gonna have ice willy finish. Which i like it took its i know how it for quotes throat on the way down and it lingers and collect that it'll take a good call. So thanks for being in being here live and thanks for listening at home or where else you are, what's yours get keep your stick on the ice just got from a rock.

Here are your hosts the surface smith i'm calling smith. I'm david smith and we are the surface smith's bringing you episode eighty four congratulations david. Yes yes it a form that's older than your it is older than me but it's also eight episodes in eight weeks. Lucky eight and we have to jump through some hoops to get you there so we don't eight episodes in eight weeks we're gonna have to skip after a jump right ten just like windows did. Book, so welcome to the show this is a little bit different you're gonna hear some audio differences this time this is the first time in over a year we're doing something called a mix minus you can look that up we might talk about that after the show but basically david's in his home office i'm at my regular office, we're recording this with skype but we also have other things going on in the background, but the took a lot of effort for us to get to this point to make it work so i think we deserve a little bit, the of something from our listeners thick thick thick we've been working at this for a while trying to get this to work we think we finally got the sound quality would we would lay. Which is great for a couple reasons why as we can have gas. And row cast with having guests on site and then the other is that during whatever time of year that were traveling a lot we can just. [1:35] One of us could you write was that just remote gas without remote guess before but the problem is remote guest don't hear are intro or outro and things like that they can't interact with the, the sounds that we've added to the show mostly to amuse ourselves but all the same sometimes we have real sound useful sound from tax. Speaking of not useful sound let's hit the next what well well until the were not really wanna you wanna go to the next clip okay hey guys what about the word of the week. You can just set me up like that without. What you do today yeah so where the weeks of david you don't have a soundboard connected this time so not gonna let court on the choose it she's also failed on a few times you were going to choose the word of the week can i also that is. [2:24] Hey dave can i have one of the week said say the word of the week is flexible flexible so that is that that's you being flexible right there. Exactly so maybe next week i'll have some board i'm not but anyhow we have a lot more flexibility in how we were part of podcast now and two david couldn't make it this evening so. We're being flexible and and getting this episode so pretty please with the way things are going so far but i don't wanna waste lot time talking about. The matter details of the show i'd like to really get into that so that yeah i think next were gonna go to each year of the week that feature of the week thanks court anna so this week i have to go and buy a surface pen. [3:06] Why well because i didn't have one on my surface book to i had one for my. The surface three a surface pro three by the way this episode i'm actually using three different surfaces i'm using a surface pro, to as my soundboard i am using a surface book to run the skype mix minus the i'm watching you through right now and i'm using my surface pro three to record everything. So what three running honey surface is you have running david for this episode one one okay for surface is all around but, i didn't have a pen dedicated to my surface book to an evidence of work a client site where i like to draw some diagrams and things like that so i bought a new pen and i realized, two things one awfully expensive hundred thirty dollars canadian but hundred they are american darn useful devices they don't come with a device that like talk about this i got the what i got the cobalt blue, which is but look like a pen however it's got it all you got a button on the back, from the top which is also your racer and also brings up your inking menu in windows ten and there's another button which is a right click button which you can use when your in can. How old is the one about how. Right in the early early ones are being held by the top well done about on top of that wasn't that what little but on the top is on the race so these are babies are. [4:37] Pens made by intrigue the other interesting thing is there's no clip on them anymore. [4:44] Alright guess because they're designed to make medically held against the against. The surface book two and the new hot surface pros but might might identically holes and has a clip get but the cook gets in the way i guess the new one to not have a clip so i thought i'd playing at but what i've done david is, started thinking get on that device which i'm really enjoying. Again i miss that too hot but i've reached out to a bunch of vendors to get us some sample intrigue pans that they make and we can try the muscle which ones we like. Excellent so feature the week is our. Is the microsoft surface pen and concept of thinking and we talked about that before no just remind everybody that if you are going to use ink with windows ten there's an application control panel to help train it to use your. I have to use your head writing style and recognize better so. There's our future the week and have anything you like that to that it. [5:52] I think he got it sounds like you can do a lot of flexible opens with a, stop you story of the week alright lots of news to bring you this week david you're take the first stuff you new stories not take the last few. Sure as a result of amazon everyone hopefully knows that i am a amazon echo fanboy have one of my car have one in my office. And if you see a new look so an amazon echo looking is what. I would think i would think and look with the name of that would be a display added to an amazon echo but now it's basically a camera that allows you to look at things such as people and then how to. You choose clothes for them or you know decorate your room and also the thing so really an augmented reality tool for shopping freshly minced wait wait you're we we try to tell me that amazon built something. To help them sell you stuff we will go to far for the food of fuck yeah well it happened but yeah. You things are they like to. Sell other people things so they do have a two cartridge so david we just had our first skype glitch on the audio portion there. It's okay we'll live with it. So tell us more about this like it could tell you if that sure goes with those parents of those jeans make your ass look fat what would look what could it. [7:29] Is well yeah i can try on clothes you can try different colors on your for decorating rooms and those who think so really i think it augment real is real the way to look at it. Okay man would you think have when you buy things on my new att u and i would buy it a shirt or something on line cuz you know what's gonna be pretty mush the same size and the same shirt as before. But there's probably other people that are a bit fussy or under called him then then you're i might be. I'm actually tempted to trash most my wardrobe underscore three or four different looks and just all the same and make it next. [8:07] Is it the from over will take it to the good will store. [8:13] Yeah i was like steve jobs's did you know and same thing brock obama did the same thing now is with grey suits you. Okay we'll so that's uh that's the amazon echo list it is still you and i would need. I have a twenty look fucking amazing i can imagine that simple yet so does the political market and you and i for cody okay what's next step in news david. [8:42] So this is this been busy with a couple projects one's called free card which is a concept of a keyboard. That is the touch screen as well as the touch screen. [8:54] So basically to have a touch screen he or a touch screen monitor and or you can think of is a dual mark do will. A dual monitor computer that you would then use another laptop so somewhere drama like a folding display so okay sold on. But a full keyboard alright so we got basically told size two displays that fold up to go there like a clam shell but one is a that they're both display but one can use a keyboard. Because of the are actors that are soft are your rotated ninety degrees and which case you have dual monitors and you just use an external bluetooth keyboard for. Okay that this is just a concept now how difficult could that be to make. All those people exist we already have the touch screen keyboards i think it would be that difficult. [9:43] Okay now question for david i was pronouncing as seuss i don't yes properly pronounce it do you. No give some where there yeah i do but it's on the sound board it's is use and with the other um what's the other wave heard it's been yesterday since i have a basis in asus. Yes for a seuss okay be right meter it its a fucked civil design but it's nothing really extraordinary but the cool thing is somebody first now so my first my first worker. One of the other managers there talked about the idea that keyboard should be. Changeable so that you know if you wanna work in a different language you can work in a different language and effective it look back at the original service announcements member they have different keepers they're gonna do i can use a keyboard and now you know. Officers of different keyboards. These weren't necessarily dynamically changing keepers belie you have a different template and keyboard so i guess there always next station the old worker templates that we use the tape onto our two birds. Okay it make sense okay any other news related to that from what i have another one passes is this. Excuse braces a screen pad so what date does the replace the touch pad on a keyboard and. May the keep made it ain't no monitors lol i don't understand the value their. [11:14] Well it's very much like the the apple touchpad okay with the track pad with the. Who intro up that change that will be interesting for soundboard that. I can think of tons of places where that would be handy but i'm not really sure how you would get to the point where applications would be that flexible by the developers you have to do something or that have to be some kind of a shame or something in between. Yeah yeah so the concept i can see how right now in union. Oh i didn't know hacker's i've been not one window and so the certain things that one out that would be nice to be able to have it the quick and double click console on that. [11:57] And then different things for different apps and things for us i think the concept is our by think it would be i think it would be hard to get the applications that far ahead hand. It might not add much to the mets may five trip cost so you know high and laptops come of it and. [12:16] You notice on a huge value but it didn't really cost to much at alright sounds good david. I'm just adding and you have a new story wanna talk but that's not other there anything else you want me to take some items stopped writing alright so i go start not not the staff dragon i'm gonna go with. Microsoft partners to roll out windows collaboration displays later this year so what is that mean the surface have been. Successful or not a measure of success little break on its numbers but they are still back ordered so unlike those original windows are t and up, original surface pro devices that microsoft had a warehouse full of that they have to get rid of and they took with nina remotely dot right down on, surface hubs are not in that category they are, back ordered people have to get the mail we got the new surface hub to it's coming out that's tie level of talked about that on the show and so microsoft, he is a lot only ems to build something called windows collaboration displays now these are not surface hubs than interesting thing about the collaboration display, is it doesn't have compute, so it works with a another windows ten computer that's casting to it in some way but is designed for collaboration and this is exactly is a your customers do what the service of any what, yeah pretty much but it's got touch it's got presents its got, set your cameras and things like that too low so it's more than what your customers do yes that it got its got more but that doesn't mean they'll they'll use it and it will run microsoft three sixty-five which we talked about. [13:55] Last episode as a bundle of windows ten office three sixty five and enterprise mobility sweet with the security modules as well so, will start seeing announcements for those maybe we can get a demo device would be cool if you got one in your office and i got one in my office and we try to do a collaboration podcast. [14:17] Yes so we can go to the for microsoft stores and collaborate from there or makes a ton of sense yeah race so that's that's it for that is i am doing okay i've got two that are kinda related. Okay the first first one is the snap dragon eight fifty from qualcomm so tell hold on one hundred eight forty five. I don't know i think they made one today that its available but the eight forty five a ball is the one that the first one i can run with just. The thing as it it thirty five a thirty five so i'm not sure i don't really track all of these so i gotta be careful with the week, call come numbers things because there's really two pieces in play here and will explain that so snap snap dragons i use. Arm processors but it to full chipset right its that reagan eight fifty is call com's version of the core texts arm chip and their chipset so i, there's another can call arm which actually designs the court tax and it's not right and qualcomm does, their own magic with some potentially produces themselves etc but there's a little bit confusion there because the snapper. So the numbering may have something to do with either court text number in or call comes on internal numbering at which i don't fully understand. We're lucky numbers yeah who knows but so i don't know what happen to the eight forty-five talked about the eight fifty so. [15:53] The eight fifty is designed specifically for windows pcs. We had so were looking at bigger devices like laptops and convertibles higher clock speeds up. [16:10] Better heat dissipation so they don't have to worry about the things that you have to worry about when you trying to jam everything into a phone because prior to the eight fifty qualcomm was really designing their chips. To work on mobile devices like phones and some tablets but the phones were there really their big market right dad, lately and the system so they had yo they lt the or the or whatever else, with the four g that the carriers need all that built in and the expectation was at the cram as much of it as possible to very small space is not gonna be a lot of room for batteries knock me a lot of room for heat dissipation so that the deal with all of those, wake fifty give them a little bit more breathing room excuse the terms and for talking about heat dissipation but that, they have a lot more flexibility david time in in the design because the expectation is it's going to go into a large chassis. What's your or your laptop right is not really designed for telephone or mobile phone so the real problem with her with, get the original ones was was performance right number was complex but the battery life people all kind of complained a little bit that i can't run x sixty four wraps but, really it was all up for saloon bar the performance hospital with burn the performance issue wasn't emulation layer that's part of it but also part of it was phillips the that the underlying hardware so this hardware, really takes it next level and should be able to provide better performance on those the next generation of windows ten arm pcs. [17:48] What percentage of user needs can they get to it this the original one would been low and you'll travellers and so on and baby ten percent of computers, people all the time or maybe thirty percent you know this brings it out maybe to what of the computing power that may be half the people you must. [18:05] And do you also look up i get to hire display resolutions as well so will see what happens it really comes down to will the developers in braces and we re compile their color code to run. [18:18] If they don't why because i think i've if i'm not mistaken. [18:25] The developer still have to re powder coat support sixty four bit are know they well depends on the app as if it's the next city six app it will continue. If it's if it's a legal store app which is having life because there are so few of them than what they have to do is choose a check box in when they can figure there are there and saw for that it just one last piece of news that exciting for me. Call comes including an lt modem on this chipset so all of these pcs will have lt which something i'm a fan of. Yes it all should all right so now related but not from qualcomm it from our. Right okay so arm makes the term chipset right so the chip designer arm that they're the ones that make the court tax which. Qualcomm could intercept reagan's right men do we should maybe get a hardware designer engineer in here talk a little bit more details about that so that we don't bleed people too far stray but here's, the interesting thing the court tax a seventy six cpu is targeted being thirty five percent more performance than its predecessor. And. The colonists in a lap top class shit they're expecting it like i said thirty five or potentially forty percent faster but. More than that they're looking at it i having have a much much better battery life. [19:53] And they're looking at it from a performance perspective, being close to an i five seventy three hundred so, target squarely it right the center of intel's got intel's market space there and they expect that they put more cash memory on it it up with the core i seven. That's interesting cuz it if you really get up to that performs then people are choosing the arm ship because. Because it uses less battery people are choosing that arm chip because it's cheaper than all the other venecia arm. Who is. Get it does that it's the always on such as the battery is always on a few other things and it's and scholar right smaller devices so those two pieces of news the snap dragon eight fifty and the. Court tax a seventy six kinda go together my expectation is that the qualcomm. [20:57] Right actually uses that core tech chip but i haven't got detail supporting that yet happening i think this fits in with a rumor that apple my two yeah. Arm purse that's your laptop sometime if there really is this much action the environment then apple would be fools to not consider. Okay so i got one last new stored around other news so first of all if we put this on one of microsoft yeah it would be kind of funny because of the of it. What is microsoft's market helping we would have a good laugh at it does like his cake up really co ia and so on some but we we didn't even think about it but somehow microsoft. Bucket house so here's the thing then next up but get help for seven point five billion dollars, a lot of people are upset that get have is an open source for positive re i gonna get that eric lenard or another developer on the show i think i joel, julie bare wanted to be on the show have them talk more about get up because they use it all the time i use a little bit, but it's an open source thing people get code from there the interact with it i been our website is is actually power to get hubby's project me up, to run our wordpress site that's on top of my classical server and it's all serve to microsoft azure from get apps i use it on occasion microsoft has put a lot of its documentation to get help to feel again have account you can go in and edit, microsoft documentation and then they hadn't done that was very interesting concept they have they published the doc was a let you go in and change the mets. [22:32] Right it's cheaper than doing it them self what. Yes and i know most couples are very aggressive and attacked some even hi there documents right to be quite a change, so i'm not sure what this means for microsoft, it it is totally sign of the times because steve bomber will always campaigning against open source it was bad for the economy bad for national security all sorts of things and such as cut. Us a kinder gentler view of open source different guess guess so. I'd like to get some be on the show that can speak more knowledgeable about that in the next few weeks or months david what you think about what's you that shall we. Okay we will we will do that i think that's it for the news. [23:20] Music. [23:28] So david anything else me to talk about do we have any rumors and the what if scenarios me rants or raves. I can't think of any right now and you know i do a few things and want to talk about them. Okay so our show numbers have been going up we been steadily getting a few more listeners every week or so that the episode numbers cuz that be going up to the half that's true. But we've also been interacting with. With some of our listeners and fans on twitter that's probably easiest way to interact with us some interesting discussions there. But next week we're gonna do interaction whole other level we're gonna be doing a live show we've talked about that that's june thirteenth were going to be at the auto what pc users group and we're going to be at which museum david. [24:20] Science and tech about three months is deviation the aviation museum and reading a live show they're gonna be recording there so that's a great way to interact with. List of the show if anyone from the auto a pc users group of losing now and wanted to, drop us a note to be included in the show please go to our website and look at the rants a raves and, is a little leave us a voicemail about me go ahead and do that work from mobile phone at work from a pc that if you gonna microphone attached to it up, by the way any listener the show can do that actually you if you not list for the show you can do that and we'll gladly drop that audio into the show if it's appropriate, and and do you that way but please interact with us. So this is like i said this is a special show we're using something called a mix minus which we've done before we wired our own using multiple devices strung together but this is a bit of a professional set up of that x minus. [25:23] Is this working is gonna be good for the summer and i can set up to the show i wanna try it just with the plain old telephone system see how well it works there okay. [25:34] But shall we wrap things up call that alright thanks for being so flexible david in on this record today up. We're done early awesome you everyday you to keep the company is set by thanks lizzy. [25:49] Music.

[26:10] Help others find out about the show by leaving a review on it. [26:13] Music. [26:25] Well welcome to the after party after the podcast we'd like to share some whiskey now this is a very special with you tasting i've got a guest with me he is name is wayne, lexi highway hello everybody out there right so as you recall we record this episode on wednesday the. Fix for the seventh of the sixth, june and david was remote and so i wasn't able to share whiskey with them so he gets to miss out so since then we've had some really interesting things happen the washing capitals won the stanley cup and rob ford has. When me and terry election he'll be our new premier and i decided to open an iconic bottle of whiskey and david it's your own fault for not being here, and not being able to share with us so we would like to tell us that we have yet calling me of them calling fine oak eighteen year old, i can describe it for you if you wish sure this will this work exclusively maturity in sure you'll casks all whiskeys in this are distilled before nineteen ninety six that this is truly iconic bottle this is right up there with the johnny walker blue, this is like what do people talk but don't pairing i'll be in a comic polish and paid this is my comic bottle of whiskey and its been a victim of its own success in that. Takes guess what eighteen yrs to produce and they didn't lay down of stock early enough so supply and demand is really jacked the price up, so you sold in most markets not sold in ottawa that i don't think it's old anywhere regular regularly in canada in chicago las vegas la new york places like that you find. [27:56] So wayne what does our good friend jean marie in the bible have to say will according to the gym but we have your classic cream sherry roma thick, sweet but the light in live in by a distinct barley sharpness, i haven't had it yet i'm looking for to to tasting it call on us the whisky that i measure all whiskeys by while so. Here's what i am expecting to taste some juicy ness julius clean an intense delivery strands of honey and syrup, pave the way for videos and spices to get a grip complexity level just are startling and the weight just about spot on so based on gym ari's take on it i'm looking for ten right there was in a ninety four point five which is exceptional so let's take a look at it and the glass wine what, color legs in the dark and give me it is dark, darker than i actually expected her mama now this one by the way has no color in it it's all natural color from the sherry sherry casks okay so is that really good legs of us what's will up the glassy calm down that little leg there. And yo i'm a fan of adding water to whiskey but enough to do that just yet this one is very good on its own but as you know when you get about the twenty some percent alcohol. Is where the aromatic scott released this is forty three percent alcohol. By volume in there take a sniff of that smell vanilla coffee a little bit leather what a sweet. Yeah a little bit of set get coffee for sure what to get this ball on this one i think i got in las vegas. [29:29] What do you think is not amazing on the initial just initial taste palate to finish it sweet salty. Little bit of stress yet it's both atom is amazingly smooth and now he added a drop of water weigh. [29:49] Stop the fan you gotta see no start up for more sweet, and more complexity little or how to come out of it at a curiosity i'm i'm adding some some plain ol tap water here is there a particular type of water that would work best ideally you'd want water to still the river spay cuz that the space i was okay. I have some at home that this will do just fine with the way that. [30:21] Yeah i like it i like my scotch is sweeter as opposed to smokey. And pd and and this fits the bill right is well thanks for taking time out of your busy day to share some with me when my pleasure icon but you but you know i would've, i will drink alone that's not a problem that i said that i would enjoy this alone as well but good to have that we have you with me and i think it will eat away at you and i drink together. Often when i was a on everyone so if that's true, usually usually it's it's beer in my hand but the stuff is is a nice change it up with in my hands that's true so thanks again, take a bite of listeners my pleasure calling in goodbye to everybody out there okay keep your stick on the ice and scotch on the rocks. Oh by the way you know what way i can leave one thing it take one more step and this is really how this this makes me feel. [31:15] Music.
