Oooooh shit, hey didn't see you there. Snuck up on me. Huh, what do you mean we've been gone for months? Today's episode is, obviously, the first in a while. Been a busy year but Kpop works a bit harder than us all apparently so we've been behind amongst other things like getting our lives together and trying not to catch a debilitating airborne illness. But somehow in the midst of this... we've been able to muster up enough strength to FINALLY start our series on Blackness and Kpop. (Or really just Morgan flying solo here lmfao.) This episode is dedicated to Black fans. We'll talk about doxxing, cultural appropriation, Black Lives Matter, whatever happened to kmusicandblackwomen and why the fuck antiBlackness is so normalized in pop culture. Super lighthearted episode... yeah. Don't forget! We have our phone lines OPEN throughout the duration of this series for y'all to call in to talk to us. Our next episode in this series will revolve around Black music and the sound of Kpop! Call us anonymously at (862)438-5353!

Det er den sidste SuperDigital inden sommerferien, men der er godt fyldt op på hylderne alligevel: Apple har netop afholdt sin store årlige udviklerkonference, WWDC, hvor de blandt andet har annonceret at de fremover vil til at lave deres egne chips også i Mac-computerne. Det er 15 år siden de sidste gang foretog sådan en omstilling. Udover de nye chips taler vi også om nye features - og hvilke funktioner vi stadig savner. I de korte nyheder handler det om vejrdata, Corona-apps og ansigtsgenkendelse, og bagefter skal vi også vende nye privatlivstiltag fra både Google og Apple. I Ugens Plus-Minus anmelder vi den hypede email-tjeneste Hey, og til allersidst har vi ugens Tip. Hav en god sommer - og så høres vi ved i august
