00:00:06
all right welcome back people of the internet to another episode of the waveform podcast we're your hosts i'm marquez and i'm andrew and this week
00:00:13
we've got a bunch of apple rumors sort of rounded up into one segment we're
00:00:18
going to talk about a bunch of stuff a new dji drone that might be everything we've wanted and more maybe might be and
00:00:24
also an old favorite pebble might be getting back into the tech game in a way that you're probably not expecting but
00:00:30
first dali did i know that i feel like i nailed that i just learned
00:00:35
about this today yeah it's the people pipple says daley a lot but uh we did finally release the video that
00:00:41
i was talking about last week i think i talked about it a little bit yeah about the open ai
00:00:48
ai tool called dolly two d-a-l-l-e two
00:00:54
um we'd gotten access to it and the the craziest part is just the simple fact
00:01:00
that all it needs is some text input and it will turn that into a realistic image
00:01:06
in whatever style doesn't even have to be realistic i guess you want okay if you give it a painting prompt that's
00:01:12
still like a realistic painting maybe i don't know it's insane it's incredible so i i like starting with showing people
00:01:19
this person does not exist.com because that if you just go to that website it shows you like a realistic
00:01:25
high resolution face and that's not a real person and what it did is it's taking a whole bunch of
00:01:30
images of a whole bunch of other photos of people and creating with what it knows about faces
00:01:37
a new face from that some of them have beards some of them have glasses some of them are in random environments but they
00:01:42
all look surprisingly realistic and dolly is just
00:01:47
you you tell it what you want a picture of and it will give you that thing but it isn't real obviously because it's
00:01:53
creating a new version of it and it was a lot of fun to play around almost too much fun it probably stalled
00:02:00
some of our workload at work playing with it for a little too much yeah worth it um yeah it does some like really
00:02:07
really cool things and we gave it some really strange prompts um most of the time it like totally nails it or not
00:02:13
totally nails it but it gets really really close obviously what can do what you ask but there'll be like little
00:02:19
things here and there that are a little off yeah we gave it some some pretty tough ones one in particular i think was
00:02:26
a chicken nugget surfing in a bowl of chicken soup something weird with
00:02:32
hawaiian sauce yeah with hawaiian shorts on and it was very confusing so basically the idea
00:02:39
is like giving this thing a prompt is you can give it a very simple prompt yeah like uh we started simple with like
00:02:45
a blue apple and a bowl of oranges or even just like an elderly kangaroo something simple and we'll create that
00:02:51
for you and that's amazing that it can make that image but it also is kind of cool that it gives
00:02:56
you like some environment and a pose and like some surrounding details that you might not have asked for because it
00:03:02
realizes that they fit like when i asked for an elderly kangaroo it was like leaning it was in some sand one of them
00:03:08
and it was like kind of squinting and it was kind of looks sort of like hunched over all these little details
00:03:13
that were not part of my prompt but what we found is you could give more and more detailed interesting prompts
00:03:21
and it would it would do everything you asked for as to the best of its ability anyway in the picture you asked for so i
00:03:28
sort of i started off with some pretty simple prompts but then i got more and more interesting and detailed and
00:03:35
it kept going so the one that i think was one of my favorites was i asked dolly
00:03:41
for a painting inspired by the mona lisa of a goat
00:03:46
that is taking a picture with an ipad which is an insane thing to ask anyone
00:03:53
for but dolly in the 10 seconds that it always took to generate every single prompt i asked for generated 10 brand
00:03:59
new images of paintings of goats that look like the mona lisa taking pictures
00:04:05
with a tablet that looks like an ipad yeah it did a couple things also like i feel like it took
00:04:11
of the mona lisa and rather than the artist the like style of the artist of the mona lisa and how it was painted it
00:04:17
took like how the mona lisa was posing more so and like a like medium like bust head yeah
00:04:25
they made a painting instead of like a photo and then they made it like you know the brown colors and the sort of
00:04:30
pose of the way mona lisa was in the picture so to varying degrees it nailed that but then taking a picture with an
00:04:35
ipad meant it had to hold an ipad so all of the goats in our pictures had hands instead of that it was funny like that's
00:04:41
that's nuts that it did all of that by itself and i think my favorite detail of it was um so all of them obviously had
00:04:47
tablets because we said ipad one of them specifically had the apple logo on the back another one just had a picture of
00:04:53
an apple on the back of it so but like red like 3d like just looked like a
00:04:59
children's like if you had a book that said a is for apple on it like that's what the apple looked like on the back
00:05:04
which i found hilarious because it clearly just like we never wrote apple in the prompt it just said i just know so
00:05:11
it took the apple logo and then for some reason put a different apple on it and i thought that was
00:05:16
a hilarious kind of like brain fart dolly had it's fascinating that was uh entertaining for sure so in the video on
00:05:22
the main channel we explain how it works what it's doing with clip and gpt3 and diffusion and all these things that it's
00:05:28
doing to create this amazing image um so i did a twitter thread where i posted a
00:05:34
bunch of my findings and all the things that are generated for me the last one that i didn't put in the
00:05:40
video was just i asked for the meaning of life and it gave me an image
00:05:45
that it's kind of a photo realistic picture of the ocean and you can kind of hear it when you look at it but it was
00:05:51
just life just life as it is on earth which is there it is kind of interesting so it's not 42.
00:05:57
it didn't yeah it didn't just print the number 42. actually that's funny one a lot of the other random quirks about
00:06:02
dolly are the things that doesn't do well and the other extra things that it can do well so we're all amazed by like
00:06:08
yeah give it a prompt it'll generate a new thing and we have a video actually coming up on the studio channel maybe maybe live by the time you see or hear
00:06:14
this uh where we go head to head prompt for prompt tim the graphics designer here versus dolly with the same prompts
00:06:22
and then a blind test to see who can identify who made what yeah but the other stuff is like dolly is not that
00:06:27
great with specific text so if you ask it for a sign that says a certain word on it
00:06:34
it's it's really good at generating the gist of the image like it will make a really good photo realistic sign but the
00:06:39
letters might not be the right letters so it's just a sign with letters on it um if you ask for a burger king science
00:06:45
that was my favorite burger kern or something bugger curry it was close yeah but it didn't get it right and the other
00:06:51
thing is like relative position sometimes is wrong so if you ask for something above something or something
00:06:56
you know underneath something it might swap them because it's still generating an image with the things you asked for but for some reason relative position
00:07:03
is not uh as strongly like like coded i guess into the way it
00:07:09
generates the photos um other than that though like the in painting is super cool you can ask for a room and then you
00:07:17
can ask for a room with a couch in it and you can just tell it where to put the couch and it'll put a couch in the room to match the perspective and
00:07:23
lighting in the room which is cool you can ask it to sort of transform
00:07:28
an image into an image towards another prompt so you can ask it to for example
00:07:36
demodernize a gadget and so you put in a picture of an iphone
00:07:41
and it slowly goes what's an older version what's an older version with an older version until you get like not just an old iphone but an old phone
00:07:48
which is crazy and we did that they they had a version with a tesla turning it into an older car it's just fascinating
00:07:53
watch the video it's worth checking out and there is also a subreddit
00:07:59
this morning because it's like when once you start looking at these all you want to do is look at more so this uh subreddit or dolly2 we'll post it in the
00:08:07
show notes but if you just want to keep scrolling keep looking at crazy stuff that dolly's created this thing looks
00:08:13
like it's posting a lot every it's got like 20 posts from yesterday so if you want to just keep going probably just
00:08:18
collecting because basically dolly 2 is super limited not everybody has access to it you can request being on the wait
00:08:23
list but uh it's pretty clear not a lot of people actually get to use dolly so it
00:08:28
was cool that we got to and it's cool to just follow what people are plugging in and seeing what happens this is hilarious happy raccoons wearing
00:08:36
colorful turtlenecks that's amazing it's the the things you have to do in your mind
00:08:42
to come up with a unique prompt just to see what it would say it's hard we had we sat down for a while trying to yeah
00:08:47
just to come up with what do you ask for it like we asked okay apple car we gotta ask you what the apple car looks like
00:08:53
and of course yeah we got our results back and you asked dolly for apple car and it goes okay yes apple and car i can
00:09:00
do that and i made a car that looks like an apple uh should have thought of that but okay makes sense context matters but you know
00:09:06
this one i'm looking at here two tyrannosaurus rex's having a tender moment at sunset pixar movie trailer
00:09:12
still that yeah that's pretty good it's just like the silhouette of two t-rexes um
00:09:18
cuddling a little bit and very detailed there's some stuff yeah definitely check out check out our video we have a new
00:09:23
video coming out on the studio soon like you said um if it's not out by the time this is out it should be up next sometime next week but
00:09:30
dolly's amazing everyone should get a chance to look at it yeah one more side effect since you probably won't get a
00:09:35
chance to actually plug things into dolly yourself are some people did point me to some open source dolly
00:09:42
alternatives basically you like dollies yeah more or less like they don't they're not as high quality but they
00:09:48
still kind of attempt the same thing through different methods of ai so i'll probably try to link one or two of
00:09:54
those as well worth checking out but yeah that's dolly that's dale i have another thing here that you told
00:10:00
me uh as you were reading the script you had not heard of so i'll kind of explain it to you a little bit break it down um
00:10:06
so we all remember pebble uh we were actually talking about pebble the other day um just about
00:10:11
tech that's kind of been maybe not forgotten but not around anymore in pebbles that uh that company everyone
00:10:17
knew and loved had a real cult following of kind of like the dawn of smart watches yeah right um so
00:10:23
they're not around anymore but apparently the old founder eric i'm gonna try and say this last name
00:10:29
eric okay does that look great sure cool all right thanks eric oh well we'll be
00:10:35
saying eric for the rest of the episode yeah um he made a website talking how much or on
00:10:41
his website talks how much about how he loves the iphone mini form factor but he loads ios and really wants an
00:10:48
android version and he really misses small phones which apparently is funny because he's also 66 so that's
00:10:54
interesting uh not alone in wanting a small phone camp well there's a lot of people but we also just saw the
00:11:00
the iphone mini not being brought back for the 14th lineup so it's a small group that is very it's a very
00:11:07
vocal minority a small group that is very passionate about the small phone so
00:11:12
he eric wants a small phone he made a website and he's convinced that if he can get 50 000 people to sign up about
00:11:19
being interested he can convince a manufacturer to bring this to fruition a small a small android phone
00:11:25
so he right now he has 6 000 signatures but it's only been up for like 24 hours um
00:11:30
so i just kind of have he had a list of what must have what would be nice to have what he's looking for i thought
00:11:36
let's go over it let's see how interested you are how interested people uh our audience might be and they can uh
00:11:42
let us know i'm just does he actually believe that 50 000 signatures
00:11:48
is enough to convince someone like i don't know i'm pretty sure millions of
00:11:53
iphone 12 minis were sold like 50 000 is a very small drop in the bucket for the
00:11:58
manufacturers out there making phones and scale i think 50 000 signatures is small but
00:12:04
he is also someone who's manufactured a product before and i am not so i will give him the benefit of the doubt here
00:12:10
all right there's not fifty thousand commitments to buy or no two thousand hundred dollar deposits so all right let's see so yeah let's just go over uh
00:12:17
i'll go through the specs that he has he has must have follow the iphone mini industrial design
00:12:22
as close as possible consistent with bezels around the entire display 5.4 ish 1080p oled display 60 hertz is fine
00:12:29
camera must be as good as the pixel 5 and good low light performance stock android snapdragon 8 or other flagship
00:12:37
processor equivalent 5g hole punch front camera two rear cameras
00:12:42
regular wide angle i'm assuming it means ultra wide angle because regular usually it's like wide
00:12:47
angle so i'm assuming it means ultrawide eight gigs of ram 128 250 storage four hours of screen on
00:12:54
time unlockable boot loader nfc and then nice to have rugged enough to not need a case that's
00:13:00
an interesting one we don't see that very often oh that's a tough one
00:13:05
like what i don't even know is the iphone is the iphone currently rugged enough to not need a case because you don't i don't need a case but you really
00:13:12
should have one like if it's if you want to match the industrial okay i'll get back to that that's a weird
00:13:19
it's a ip68 water resistance would be a nice to have but not needed fingerprint sensor on power button hardware mute
00:13:26
switch wireless charging esim um those are the nice to haves okay i'll
00:13:31
shed a little bit of light i've i've had a couple unique opportunities to maybe
00:13:37
work with a smartphone manufacturer in the past and every single time
00:13:42
uh it's really for me all about like how much input will i really have i haven't
00:13:47
really told anybody about this but like usually when they approach me they're like we have a phone that's nearly done
00:13:53
and we want your like approval on it and then it's the mkbhd phone and to me that's not really input i don't really
00:13:59
get to choose anything and i've had maybe some where where it gets to the point where i can actually
00:14:05
make a couple choices about specifics and placement and things like that but
00:14:10
not really too malleable and then it's the mkbhd phone but every single time we go through this
00:14:16
process what becomes very clear is making a smartphone is just a series of compromises you pull one lever down the
00:14:23
other one goes up you pull another level up and another one goes down and so i look at this list and that's where my
00:14:29
mind goes and there are some levers here that might not all be able to
00:14:35
be up at the same time as what i'm seeing yeah so okay let's just go through some of these
00:14:40
industrial design to follow the iphone mini as close as possible so i'm picturing an iphone mini i like the idea
00:14:46
i think he just wants the size with consistent bezels the size with consistent bezels but then you also say rugged enough to not need a case so you
00:14:52
must not be talking about glass on the back like the iphone which is the industrial yeah i don't i don't know
00:14:57
what that could yeah i guess you go metal and he does say doesn't need wireless charging might
00:15:03
want wireless charging do you go metal the only things i can think of of these like don't need a case i mean like
00:15:08
remember the s8 active or like i think there's some doogee phones out there right now that are these like rugged
00:15:14
hardcore like construction worker phone is definitely nice to have they don't do very well yeah it's tough to say like
00:15:21
rugged enough to not need a case and be able to define that clearly but here's another one okay you have a 5.4 inch
00:15:26
1080p oled 60 hertz is okay i get that then you say you want a snapdragon 8
00:15:32
series or other flagship processor chip why
00:15:37
because you also asked for four hours of screen on time if you want good battery life on a small
00:15:42
phone you probably don't use the highest end chip like what have we seen iphone se high
00:15:48
end chip small battery not great battery life and that's an iphone with great optimization then we see another small
00:15:54
phone like i go i don't know how much what other small phones are like the zen phone well so i look at
00:16:00
this whole thing and i think of zenfone 8 but it was 5.9 inches yeah not as
00:16:05
compact but that's like kind of close but do you see a snapdragon 8 gen 1 in that like that's not gonna have a four
00:16:11
hour screen on time i'll tell you that right now so when i see all three of those things on this list five and a half inch screen
00:16:19
yeah uh zenfone 8 says snapdragon 888 and did that have a four hour screen on
00:16:26
time i i i don't remember screen on time at 4 000 milliamp hours so phone that because
00:16:32
that's not that's not really as compact as the phone we're picturing yeah i'm assuming the max you guys like 35
00:16:38
yeah 3500. the iphone 12 mini is like what is that a 1700 milliamp hour
00:16:45
battery or something in there like you don't have a lot of space it's a tough so that's you know i'm just picturing it
00:16:51
the lever's in my head i'm like all right you want to pull the lever of a flagship chip well that means no good battery to me on a small phone so that's
00:16:58
that's a tough one um storage is cool so two rear cameras regular and wide angle that's solid i
00:17:04
think a lot of people using the mini phones too are relative minimalists and would actually be cool with one camera
00:17:09
but it's probably not that much extra work to do two cameras um hole punch hole punch front camera
00:17:15
yeah seems about right and then 5g world phone again 5g is going to hit battery
00:17:21
space in the phone heat and price i'm surprised to see 5g on the must-have i still don't
00:17:29
think it's that important of a thing i'm sure there's i don't know do people agree with that do you like do
00:17:34
you agree with that i turned 5g off i am with you i i don't turn it off because there is the once in a while where i'm
00:17:41
like oh neat 5g everything's so fast but i do have i i i don't think you should buy a phone
00:17:47
for 5g yet and i said that a whole year ago and that's still true like i've drive i've driven like past areas where
00:17:54
i can see a cell tower and i'm like oh maybe i'll have 5g from driving by and i
00:18:00
look down at my phone and i have 5g e which is like basically lte
00:18:05
i'm not i'm not convinced that 5g has to be on the must-have for my own mini phone so i guess i'm with you i'm kind
00:18:12
of surprised to see it here but yeah that that's going to hit your battery that's going to hit your your price and
00:18:17
how much space you have in the phone for a large battery so yeah i you know here's what i would tweak
00:18:23
if i could if i could make my own mini phone do it maybe i would maybe he'll let you make that mkbhtv i mean he's not
00:18:28
going to like my tweaks i am saying uh super fast charging should be a must-have because this phone will have
00:18:35
bad battery life okay i'm just going to tell you right now and give me a 90 hertz display
00:18:41
so going from 60 to 90 i already know i'm hitting my battery if you leave the flagship chip in there and not a lot of
00:18:47
space in there i want super fast charging because the battery is not going to be good i'm just
00:18:52
going to accept that right now mini phone but like a lot of people using a mini phone aren't doing four hours of
00:18:57
screen on time in a day they're trying to use their phone less probably trying to have like a
00:19:02
you know a compact out of the way experience so you know it's just just spitballing ideas yeah yeah i'd be
00:19:09
interested i mean this is the thing where we in the tech space saw a lot of people really into the iphone mini and
00:19:15
into small phones and it didn't uh convert over to sales obviously enough because apple discontinued it already
00:19:21
after two iterations so we're not not officially yet but probably probably happening sorry mostly it's
00:19:28
most likely happening you know we're we're speaking in in future terms but it's probably yeah i i
00:19:34
don't think it's it's coming back according to all the rumors we've seen um and we don't see like really small
00:19:39
the zenfone like to me and the pixel 5 were like the smallest phones we've seen in a while and their
00:19:46
pixel 5 did okay i still think the zenfone 8 is like one of the most underrated phones we've seen
00:19:52
in a while um i i think eric should get his zenfone 8 or a zenfone 9 but maybe
00:19:58
maybe they'll start getting bigger and bigger so maybe that's not exactly what he's looking for yeah we'll see unfortunately wanna mirror that iphone
00:20:04
you probably just have to get the iphone now while you can i like the idea of small phones but i don't think i'd ever
00:20:10
buy one that's this is this version and still huge and i just like
00:20:15
i don't know yeah i know a couple people with the mini phone but yeah i think a lot of people are in the same camp like if you put a poll out and said do you
00:20:21
want a smaller phone they go yeah and then when the next phone comes out they don't buy the mini it's like yeah okay i
00:20:27
mean i know some people with iphone mini and they love it and they'll probably hold on to it until it completely yeah dies but um yeah uh
00:20:35
but yeah i don't i don't know i don't know if he's gonna be able to convince uh more power to him i hope he does i
00:20:41
hope he's rooting for him i hope it gets the 50 000 signatures just so we can see what happens yeah that's where i agreed
00:20:47
we'll uh we'll also link that website in the show notes if you want to go sign up for it and put your signature out there
00:20:53
maybe you are interested also leave it if you're on the youtube leave a comment because i would really like to see who like would genuinely be
00:21:00
interested in this and what price you'd be willing to pay for it like name a price right now if all of this happens
00:21:06
550. that's that's a good deal yeah if if all
00:21:12
of this happens that's a great deal it'll be nice all right we got to talk about some other apple rumors but first we're going to take a quick break and we
00:21:18
also need to do our first trivia question hit us adam trivia what was the first
00:21:24
iphone to have the retina display i know this already all right easy
00:21:29
next yes thank you super easy let's go to a break take a break think about it the
00:21:34
whole time yeah easy all right brb this episode of waveform is brought to you by codecademy i know some of you are
00:21:40
listening to this podcast at work and that's fine i won't tell your boss but if you're counting down the minutes until you go home it might be time to
00:21:46
make a change codecademy can help you get there so codecademy has taught more than 50 million people to code they've
00:21:53
helped people build projects for their portfolios earn certificates and even help prep for technical interviews and
00:21:58
codecademy lets you learn at your own pace and will send you out into the world qualified and ready to secure in-demand jobs plus you get to decide
00:22:04

always cover rumors on this show but we kind of had this like lull and news and i just happened to see in the last two
00:22:46
weeks like a bunch of different rumors for apple stuff wwdc is coming up
00:22:52
like there's it just seems to be a lot of them and they are definitely some seem
00:22:57
way more likely than others and some are like feel super speculative so so i'm i have four of them listed here i'm gonna
00:23:04
go over all of them with you you can tell me what you think about it maybe how likely you think it is to happen
00:23:10
okay um and yeah we'll go from there one at a time all right okay first one probably something we've talked about on
00:23:16
this show before um usbc iphone oh boy but this uh
00:23:22
i hope i haven't said this previously yeah you probably saw this on twitter i think you tweeted about it but like i hope i haven't said this in the past
00:23:28
where it's like but this one really looks like it might be it um but mark german and ming chi kuo are
00:23:36
both confirming that they're seeing some sort of trends in manufacturing that we might be getting an iphone 15 i think it is so next year's right 23
00:23:44
with usbc and i'm wondering if part of this has to do with the also isn't there something in europe going
00:23:51
around where the apple's being forced to use usbc instead of lightning more or less yeah they're being forced
00:23:57
to standardize so yeah i i so when i tweeted about this i was
00:24:03
like i'll believe it when i see it like i've always wanted a usbc iphone but i've also accepted in my head that this
00:24:11
is apple we're talking about and apple would much rather just not have a port at all on the iphone then
00:24:18
give you a usbc option on some of the iphones right like if this is a european iphone with usbc and
00:24:25
all the rest have lightning apple's going to do everything they can to not do that i don't think that's gonna i don't think they
00:24:31
so so the fact that it basically looks like apple is at least testing a usbc iphone to me says they're preparing for
00:24:39
if they will be forced to make all of their iphones usbc but i think they would much rather i mean keep going with
00:24:46
lightning until they don't need a port anymore so that's what i think the plan still is for them so if i'm rating this
00:24:53
on oh i guess on like a a letter grade scale of like let's do one to ten oh one
00:24:59
sounds way more confusing okay on a scale of one to ten how likely are we to get a usbc iphone after these leaks i'm
00:25:05
saying three we should probably confirm here because i'm already confused one is not one
00:25:12
queen won't happen ten being guaranteed happening three three that's low yep
00:25:18
there's that was probably the most sure one i might have had on here so this might be in it maybe not but um uh so
00:25:25
one thing i now this is where i really like felt like this might actually happen is i
00:25:32
believe it was mark kermit said something along the lines that not only are they testing this but they were also working on different um
00:25:40
adapters for previous iphones for this and to me when i see apple and think
00:25:45
adapters and dongles i'm like you guys are perfect for each other if you're already thinking that money money money
00:25:51
yeah it seems like i mean it seems like it's a guarantee now i'm going 25 iphone 15 usbc yeah
00:25:59
i'll go seven out of ten wow i it makes perfect sense like
00:26:04
usbc all the time that's why it's like okay everything you call a pro has usbc already ipad pro what did you
00:26:11
do faster data speeds like thunderbolt port even ipad air now has usbc all the
00:26:16
macbook pros every other like laptop you do usb c all the things they're all about it but when it comes to the iphone
00:26:23
and the ecosystem right around the iphone so like charging airpods max
00:26:28
charging airpods at all all those things are lightning too so for them to just go usb-c for the
00:26:35
iphone and not all of the other things around the iphone means dongles it doesn't necessarily mean
00:26:41
i mean we haven't seen a rumor for airpods but i could see airpods going usb-c also okay so it would be air pods
00:26:46
it would be what else is lightning i feel like it's weird to have a keyboard apple's keyboard right now i would the
00:26:51
magic mouse is lightning like the magic mouse should be thrown in the dump i agree but they're all lightning right now so
00:26:58
like if you're gonna go finally like we agree across the whole company that usbc is good like all right what about
00:27:05
all the other weird peripheral things that are lightning that's why the adapter thing is probably
00:27:10
gaining steam because like yeah now everything's gonna come with the usbc cable and you need to charge things via
00:27:16
lightning still that's annoying this just confuses me the more i think about it i don't know why they're on this
00:27:22
lightning train i think it's just them testing it they're just like yo if we actually get forced to do this then i
00:27:27
guess we'll have it ready so we can't get like find into i mean they have the money but whatever they're testing it
00:27:34
that's all i got out of this i'm out of three now i think about it i'm out of two i'm out of two
00:27:40
next okay all right i'll go for maybe the next most likely one i'll skip down here a little okay um so m2 stuff we might be
00:27:47
seeing soon yeah this seems pretty likely um markerman uh
00:27:52
said wwdc we will most likely be seeing ios 16 watch os 9 mac os 13 and that os
00:28:00
13 will be debuting on a m2 macbook air m2 14-inch macbook pro
00:28:06
and m2 mac mini which like just follows suit perfectly with everything we saw last year correct you said 14-inch
00:28:13
macbook macbook pro yeah interesting huh yeah so we have a i reviewed and i really liked the
00:28:19
13-inch m1 macbook pro so maybe they just refresh that and give it a slightly bigger screen in the same
00:28:25
photo that would make sense because that's kind of like what the newer macbook pros did yeah you know first of all i trust mark germain with my life so
00:28:31
that sounds pretty accurate yeah almost everything i have here is mark kerman's stuff okay yeah and then the other half
00:28:37
is we've seen all these rumors about like redesigns around some of these m2 things so the macbook air having a
00:28:42
redesign would be pretty sweet and i think it's pretty likely and then like you said okay 14 inch macbook pro m2 now
00:28:51
okay you're giving it a bigger screen in the same footprint that to me also says a little bit of a redesign so that's sweet i mean wwdc is is
00:28:59
shaping up to be a very interesting event june 6 right june 6 exactly so
00:29:05
uh yeah i'm give i mean as far as what we've talked about i'm giving this like a nine like we know the os updates are
00:29:11
coming that's a 10. and then the new hardware aside from like a random late setback
00:29:17
seems like the best way to introduce the new stuff so yeah give it a nine okay so i have two questions on here then
00:29:24
following that okay number one is we're seeing m2 mac mini we just had m1 max studio
00:29:30
do we think m2 mac mini is just going to be like a regular m2 chip not like m2 max m2 pro yeah okay how will that
00:29:38
compare to like an m1 pro studio right i think m1 to m2 will be a slight
00:29:46
bump okay but it won't slightly be competitive with like the pro and the on the ultra it'll be a slight bump from
00:29:51
the baseline so m1 is a baseline we have a new baseline m2 it's 30 faster or something like that yeah then when we
00:29:57
get new max studio further down the line that'll have m2 ultra m2
00:30:03
pro and those things will also be 30 bumps from m1 ultra and m1 pro okay yeah and
00:30:10
then how does this fit into our previous predictions of when uh mac pro is coming out and what it will have so i think a
00:30:17
lot of us were talking about mac pro what did we say we thought it was going to be like an m1x
00:30:23
or something like that we were yeah we didn't so we don't know still we thought it could
00:30:30
maybe be an m1 uh ultra
00:30:39
again a 4x m1 ultra but uh now that we start the m2 life cycle
00:30:46
maybe mac pro is intro is like teased or introduced but that will eventually have to be
00:30:52
built on m2 architecture so it's m2 ultra or whatever the hell they're going
00:30:58
to call it yeah something like that i'm going to ask our editors to look back maybe and see
00:31:03
that prediction i want to say i said this i said m2 is coming out before mac pro
00:31:10
the way this road map plays out is we're going to start to see the refresh of the new versions of those m1 chips around
00:31:18
the same time we see the the new mac pro so i think we're going to get an m2
00:31:26
in all of the baseline stuff that we currently have an m1 in okay so we have an m1 ipad m2 ipad and one macbook air
00:31:34
m2 macbook air i think we're going to get an m2 pro and an m2 max in these
00:31:39
macbook pros yep and then we're going to get an m2 ultra in the mac studio and i
00:31:45
think they need an m2 extreme or something else
00:31:50
for the mac pro mega yeah they're gonna they'll have to come up with another word another name i'm not banking on a
00:31:56
good one but and that will be so we're just skipping m1 all together for mac pro and it will be on the same
00:32:02
architecture as m2 so they'll probably have more density i don't know if it's four nanometer but
00:32:08
you know more transistors all the stuff for m2 we do all that for all the m2 series and then that same architecture
00:32:14
gets like a quad chip okay for the m two extreme yeah like four times pretty
00:32:21
much exactly yeah that's my theory based on what i've seen and how it's timed now it is very confusing
00:32:27
because now they're gonna sell m1 ultra and they're gonna have to tell people m1 ultra is better than m2 and they're gonna be like no no i want
00:32:33
the m2 the new glen but no but this is actually the ultras faster i mean first of all m2 is going to be fine for almost
00:32:39
everyone who is in this conundrum in the first place like just the m1 mac mini very underrated really good computer for
00:32:45
a lot of people if you have the right ports you're good but it is kind of confusing to tell people that m2 is out
00:32:52
and it's it's actually not as good as the m1 pro i mean and they kind of had to do that though or i guess was the
00:32:59
opposite of when they first started releasing m1 is they had like the m1 air which like in some cases was more
00:33:04
powerful than the intel macbook pro previously like depending on what you were doing or it was like the better
00:33:10
thing you're like no i want the macbook pro not the macbook air it's like well you're probably getting a better laptop out of the macbook air now
00:33:15
the way they do this whole life cycle is still a little confusing to me you know
00:33:21
i guess the pros that are gonna look for the mac pro are already on top of this you already listened to waveform y'all
00:33:27
get it already but it is gonna be fascinating to hear the messaging and see it on stage they're
00:33:32
probably gonna have to have a slide here's my prediction they're gonna have a slide where they show the m1 m1 pro
00:33:38
and m1 ultra then they're just going to slot the m2s out and put the new m1s out
00:33:43
put the m2s where the m1s were implying that they're going to also slot out m1 ultra and m1 pro with m2 ultra
00:33:50
and m2 pro that's confusing and a totally unlabeled graph that just shows something longer than the other thing
00:33:57
therefore must be much faster big performance curve perfect app we just did that we just did
00:34:02
wwdc why even watch it in a couple weeks it's a nine okay nine out of ten um i
00:34:07
have a foldable iphone i guess i don't know if i should call iphone but apple foldable
00:34:13
and quote it i have unlike any other foldable and now this is coming from
00:34:18
ming chi kuo again apple's testing e-ink electronic paper display for future foldable devices cover screens and
00:34:25
tablet-like applications the color epd has the potential to become a mainstream solution for foldable devices must have
00:34:31
cover second screen thanks to its power saving so there's some sort of it's uh
00:34:38
earlier in april quo said uh that apple might be bringing a nine inch foldable device in 2025 and that they're also
00:34:44
potentially working on a 20-inch foldable device whoa which feels like that old thing we've talked about it
00:34:50
like an actual tablet maybe in your pocket or maybe it might be something like the was it the lenovo like tablet that folds
00:34:57
not pocket size not phone size but just a smaller tablet but i think it's really interesting this
00:35:03
because we've seen all these phones with the exterior displays and you're doing so much less on those if you have so
00:35:09
maybe like with samsung fold three maybe you don't need the crazy oled 90 hertz
00:35:14
outside outside screen that could be killing battery like an e-ink can let you answer text messages and pick up
00:35:20
phone calls and can it it's apparently the new colored ink display is not quite you know like
00:35:26
oled resolution and refresh rate and stuff like that but it's much better than like the kindle e-ink
00:35:32
like super low refresh rate like just text kind of thing all right i'll i'll disclaimer a couple things then one i
00:35:38
have not tried the new color ink displays yeah but my impression of an ink display
00:35:44
is not very good okay for a phone screen so but also the thing about these like
00:35:50
these articles is like they're testing like the question isn't like is the next iphone foldable the question is like
00:35:55
will we ever sometime get a folding iphone this is testing and still says 2025. so like this is a very very vague
00:36:03
so that's the thing about apple like they're always testing things and trying things so if if the question is are they
00:36:09
definitely testing this yeah i bet they're testing it they've got all kinds of crazy prototypes every time we see a new gadget from a company they're happy
00:36:16
to show us like the year and a half of iterations of other weird stuff they tried that got them to this point
00:36:22
um so i think them trying like an ink display folding on the outside where you open it
00:36:28
up and it's a regular oled is like a thing they're trying just to see um my philosophy with folding phones
00:36:34
though personally is for them to be a no-brainer to buy they should be just as usable folded as
00:36:41
unfolded so they should be just as good as a normal phone until you want it to unfold and then it's suddenly
00:36:48
something else and there's no like a lot of them right now they're thicker they have weird aspect ratios they're a little bit
00:36:54
unwieldly that's a trade-off i think when they're when they're really mature and good they'll feel just like a normal
00:37:00
phone when you use them without unfolding it and so trying the e-ink thing to me is like
00:37:06
maybe it's cool maybe it works but it's probably kind of a stop gap and probably not ever going to ship so you're not sold on e-ink no i'm not i think for a
00:37:14
flip version phone it could be really cool because older flip phones like you used to be
00:37:19
able to just check the time and everything on the front super easy and notification so i think an e-ink
00:37:24
like if you took the flip 3 put an e-ink display on the front that was always on display that wouldn't hurt your battery
00:37:30
at all because of how like low power yeah it is i think that would be really cool to just have time notifications
00:37:37
like quick message scrolling on there or something like that i agree because it's much smaller the question is
00:37:43
would a folding iphone be a flip oh i've no it's i'm not going to even attempt to
00:37:49
you know i kind of think a folding iphone that was a flip would make way more sense in the apple sphere it would
00:37:56
and then maybe a folding tablet maybe an ipad that's folding and an iphone that's flipping so i always have
00:38:03
to qualify is it folded it's an ipad or unfolded it's an iphone unfolded it's an ipad and it's just uh and when you fold
00:38:10
it up the print is smaller so when you put it in so you could put your ipad in your purse or something like that
00:38:15
okay i see yeah i i i like i kind of want to see all of them
00:38:20
that's the thing about apple is i'm always like yeah well they should make that and they don't so we'll see no i
00:38:25
think this if i'm just like rating like will we ever see a foldable iphone yeah i think that's like an eight at this
00:38:31
point we're probably going to see a folding iphone by 2025 by 2025 so it's 20 22 now okay four or five
00:38:38
uh okay that's a good one um folding iphone by 2025 i'm putting that
00:38:43
at a seven that's a good that's a good late entry for apple it could be one year
00:38:49
later in my mind but that's about right okay yeah seven yeah all right so i have one more rumor
00:38:56
here and this is like i think this is even speculation for
00:39:01
leakers and rumors and stuff like that this is another article mark kerman did i can't get much lower than two so oh
00:39:07
yeah okay so we've heard all this stuff about apple car you know obviously dolly's not designing it because it didn't do a
00:39:13
great job at that um but apple car is like something we hear all the time we also recently just saw do
00:39:20
you know canoe the ev company they kind of made these like interesting like
00:39:25
vans almost and then they had like convertible ones that you could turn into like a food truck or like a
00:39:31
i don't know a mobile worker commercial yeah so there's been a lot of and i will
00:39:37
preface this also a lot of reports that canoe is not doing so great financially
00:39:42
financially yes and canoe relentlessly disagrees with that and commented on
00:39:47
pretty much every article on twitter that said that might be a little biased but it might be a little but but if
00:39:53
we're gonna like take the uh articles that financially it's in trouble to heart that's why mark german thinks this might
00:39:59
be something that apple could take over and potentially have a little head start on their apple car
00:40:06
taking canoe and what they've made and bringing that under apple and that's how they create an apple car but what have
00:40:12
they made what is canoe made yeah like like actually made
00:40:17
i want to say they have prototypes out there like everyone does well except apple well apples
00:40:25
so i guess when i think like canoe and a lot of companies in their distressed financial position it's like
00:40:32
it costs as we know a ton of money to not just design the car but like spin up
00:40:37
a factory and start mass producing things i think you're a bunch of steps ahead of what apple's
00:40:43
potentially doing with the cars right so like if apple is to make more headway on their car project whatever it is titan
00:40:51
what i don't know what the name is but let's say they want to make more headway does does acquiring
00:40:57
a company like canoe theoretically help them at all i mean that's just like
00:41:02
talent and and design experience maybe there's people who work for canoe that work for other ev companies maybe or
00:41:08
there's some people from canoe who work for apple right now and apparently um their former uh ceo is now
00:41:17
on the apple car project okay so there are these are just p so it's not like apple is going to suddenly
00:41:23
have like the capacity to start manufacturing cars they're they're interested in canoe because these are
00:41:28
people who are actively in the car design world and who will help them make the apple
00:41:35
car more realistic well and that they have a design and they have all that experience
00:41:41
of creating still a prototype and everything is further along i mean maybe that's maybe
00:41:46
that's the the design that apple winds up going with the can you maybe oh god i could see it
00:41:52
i couldn't it's got it almost looks like a like fat uh magic mouse like the v take a magic
00:41:59
mouse and just pull it up if this car charges upside down it's literally the canoe car if you just take a magic mouse
00:42:05
hopefully it doesn't charge from the bottom but like um yeah i don't you know it it is unique
00:42:10
like that's one thing about uh car design is when a new car company
00:42:15
comes out they get to make their own dna brand new like what does a ford look like oh i know an f-150 what does uh a
00:42:23
mazda look like okay i'm picturing mazda hyundai's got some new stuff coming out when you picture a rivien well that guy
00:42:29
they got to just start fresh like we only have r1t and r1s and now it's kind of like the headlights or their design
00:42:35
the shape what is an apple car i don't know anything whatever you want you get to start fresh could be so it's
00:42:41
like it could be canoe because i like that i think it looks really cool i actually don't
00:42:46
i'm not surprised like i obviously like the the you know cars and the two doors it's like a new age vw bus right and
00:42:53
that nostalgia doesn't hit me the same way as people who probably like really liked the vw bus when it came out i
00:42:59
think i just like the space of it sure yeah yeah but like that's way bigger than
00:43:04
like a normal like you could buy a suburban or you could probably like a bit shorter
00:43:09
than like a a big suburban it's probably not too far off from like my forester
00:43:15
but you're like driving a little more forward you remember um caleb's van that he drove us around in
00:43:21
seattle yeah yeah you know like more space in the back but still not like an is that an apple car that's so
00:43:26
interesting i don't know why because there's also there's the angle there's like the rivien is the adventure vehicle
00:43:31
and you're like oh that's so patagonia that's so seattle like you can get it the canoe could be the new garage
00:43:38
that tech startups start in mobile workstation all right that's happening it's
00:43:43
happening california is going to love these things that's all anyone can afford with the housing market yeah for real property
00:43:50
taxes no no no no no just get a canoe just get a canoe so you're giving that a one out of ten well what's the question
00:43:55
is it is will the next apple car look like canoe i just wanted to talk about it i thought it was cool i think this thing
00:44:03
uh can you ask do you think they acquire a canoe i guess is what the uh no but you know what i think happens
00:44:08
i think a lot of people who see that canoes going under will end up working for apple
00:44:14
they don't have to acquire indirectly acquires basically if yeah if i like there's a lot of people right
00:44:20
now who work for twitter that are like okay i don't like what's going on here they're going to go take their talent to someone who needs social media
00:44:27
expectations yeah or whoever you know so i think it's absolutely ethical so i think maybe i haven't read this article
00:44:33
but i'm gonna i'm gonna guess that apple's top secret car team is going to look over into canoes headquarters and be
00:44:39
like you guys want a job and then they go yeah i can see what's happening here so i think i'm going to head over there
00:44:45
that's okay that's what i think is happening um speaking of the article though we're just gonna shout out mark german here because almost all of these
00:44:51
rumors were from him um he you should follow him on twitter if you want to like really dive deep into all this
00:44:57
newsletter yeah bloomberg yeah fantastic stuff if you want to read like the nitty gritty and he probably
00:45:03
has a way more experience and knowledge in terms of what he could be predicting
00:45:08
than we do on here um probably time to get him on the show again sometime soon hey plus sources
00:45:14
good stuff all right we're gonna take a quick ad break and come back but of course that means a little more
00:45:20
trivia trivia question two you may know that mac is andrew's dog
00:45:25
what you might not know is that mac isn't his full name do you know what is
00:45:32
i sure do you do i hope so i'm wondering youtube i know
00:45:38
thank you yeah for sure all right we'll see we'll see we'll be right back
00:45:43
i'm finally gonna get a point let's go [Music]
00:45:55
all right welcome back let's talk about this new dji mavic mini 3 for a second real quick yeah so i i want to zoom out
00:46:02
for a quick like word on drones sure which we were just talking about this which is like
00:46:08
this drone seems sick right it's got all these cool new features it's got the battery life it's got all the stuff we
00:46:13
love about good drones of course it's dji but then every time you get a drone you
00:46:20
either well here's the thing you can either get it for a film tool or you get for a toy like a fun thing and then you
00:46:27
use it once and you're like oh i didn't need a drone i just spent 500 on a thing i'm gonna use once it's like
00:46:33
the gopro syndrome right yeah gopro's a little tougher because like at least with the drone you're controlling the
00:46:39
thing that does the fun movement gopro you have to like strap it on your helmet snowboarding and realize you go like two
00:46:44
miles an hour down the hill the footage in the commercials look amazing people are surfing it's under the wave the wave
00:46:50
crashes right over the top you're like i'm gonna take this gopro on vacation let me spend 450 bucks get some sd cards
00:46:56
and whatever and then you go out and then you use it once and you look at the footage and you're like yeah i could have filmed this with my
00:47:02
phone and it just has terrible audio quality yes it's all right so uh yeah we have drones
00:47:08
here that we use as a film tool but every time i personally i'm like i kind of want to get like a drone for
00:47:14
myself and then i i remember that i would only use it once and then eventually probably
00:47:20
just put it on the shelf but we've got the new mini 3. it seems like the best one yet what where should we start with the camera
00:47:26
yeah and i think the camera might be a reason to ask this as to why this might be used a little more for some people at
00:47:33
least for not totally extreme people um i mean it is a smaller drone so it's a little easier to carry around it's like
00:47:40
kind of on that edge of you've said like film to a film tool versus toy like
00:47:45
they've had mavic minis before like this all this whole small thing all kind of started with the um
00:47:50
uh what was that called the dji what was the one casey brought over he
00:47:56
oh the mavic mini what or a spark he was a spark spark that was like toy toy that
00:48:02
was like control of your phone the video was terrible um but it was like super super small then they started doing the
00:48:08
mavic mini which could fold up and it was like a smaller version of the mavic which was so popular and now this one is
00:48:13
like the mavic mini 3 pro i believe and you're getting much better video quality out of it 4k 60fps hdr video um but the
00:48:21
thing i think is really interesting with this is the camera will flip to portrait
00:48:26
and you can take a lot of video for content for social media like tick tock reels unbelievably tick tock
00:48:32
that is so 20 22. yeah and tick tock cells and tick tock and so we're going
00:48:38
to our reels are huge we're going to see tick tocks and vertical shot from drones now uh there's a guy on tick tock who is
00:48:43
insanely popular dancing on top of a mountain
00:48:58
uh okay what i found really interesting you mentioned it was small as it's 249 grams yes do you know why it's 249 grams
00:49:05
so i think hiatus was telling this about it i haven't found the confirmation of it but we'll say it with the um asterisk
00:49:11
that i don't think i you have the source for it okay cool so in new york city if you want to fly a drone it needs to
00:49:18
be registered and you need to pay for it unless it's under 250 grams in which case you
00:49:25
don't have to register you don't have to pay for it and they just say fly safely so
00:49:31
casey neistat's drone shots are now unlocked to people with this exact drone
00:49:36
because it is technically 249 grams now the thing is like i think i was talking to someone else about this if you're in
00:49:42
new york city and you're flying a drone and a cop comes up to you and he's like what are you doing and you're like i'm flying a drone he'll be like no you
00:49:48
can't do that it's illegal you don't look at him and go oh though this one's only 249 grams
00:49:53
it's not gonna work i don't think they know that level of detail on the code or whatever but
00:49:59
technically speaking drone laws in new york will let you fly this one i'm predicting a change in law very shortly
00:50:06
yeah i was going to say why did they pick 249 grams like the tech obviously is going to get better and better and
00:50:12
we're going to get real drones under 250 grams so yeah i would agree with that i don't know what that is
00:50:18
if it's flying high enough in the city that's where it gets really dangerous because there's a lot of airspace being used about the city there's constantly
00:50:25
helicopters and stuff over it and just like through all those buildings it gets dangerous pretty quick um so maybe still
00:50:31
don't fly flying in the city um i still do think it's cool because of how small it is and there's um
00:50:37
there's a new intelligent flight battery plus 47 minutes of flight time that is like
00:50:43
double what most of the like mavics we've seen and it just feels like every drone no matter the size 25 minutes is your flight time
00:50:50
25 to 30 but we all know that's like more like 20 because at five minutes it starts screaming at you to come home
00:50:57
it's like smartphones every year since 2007 smartphone batteries have gotten physically bigger but they all last
00:51:05
a day yeah it's not like we have three week long smartphone batteries it's just relative to size they seem to hit a
00:51:10
certain point and every dji drone is like 25 minutes so this is like double that which is amazing to me um i mean
00:51:16
obviously still at five minutes it's gonna yell at you to come back but then you're still getting 40 minutes of flight time that's sick which is double
00:51:23
it's amazing um they also have a new controller which i really really like which is a little thicker but has its
00:51:28
own screen on it so that you don't have to connect your phone to it obviously you always have your phone with you
00:51:35
but pulling your phone out taking the case off putting it in that controller connecting it having the dji app and
00:51:41
everything is a total pain in the neck um i hated doing it actually broke my phone once taking it out because i
00:51:47
didn't have the case on because i had to put it in the controller nice um so like i think that's a huge pain in the neck
00:51:53
having a dedicated controller is awesome and hopefully has like a decent enough screen and maybe some like anti-glare on
00:51:58
it because you're usually flying outside yeah outside i hope hopefully outside yeah um but yeah i think it's really
00:52:04
awesome i have a couple prices here just to list them off 669 no controller 759
00:52:10
standard controller that has no screen 909 with a the new controller that does have the screen and then it's 95 bucks
00:52:17
for the new battery so if you're thinking top of the line with new battery around a thousand yeah i only
00:52:23
have one real thought on this which is this is going to be really cool as a film tool but i've always split up drones in my
00:52:29
mind as film tool or fun tool and so this one's got a pretty good camera peter mckinnon has done a video
00:52:36
on it and has already showed some pretty sweet shots and i now believe in it as a pretty solid video camera
00:52:42
but for fun for the dollar dji's fpv drone combo with the goggles is 9.99 i
00:52:49
would get that for fun if you're going straight fun yeah i full full of yeah if you are a travel person
00:52:56
who's traveling to places where this can be flown you cannot fly drones in national parks which is a shame but i
00:53:01
100 support that decision they should not be um but if you're traveling a lot and you like the outdoors and you like
00:53:07
doing stuff like that drones are also still in that category of to me kind of like vr where not a lot of the general
00:53:14
public has really gotten to try one or see it personally whenever i bring a drone somewhere and like my in-laws are
00:53:20
there some family members are there they're astounded by it that's true they love looking at it just like when you
00:53:25
introduce someone to vr for the first time they just it's a whole nother world so yeah it does have that wow factor
00:53:30
there's still a fun fun thing about it and thousand dollars is steep but yeah i
00:53:35
think this is cool i think yeah for travel it's sick but if you want the fun
00:53:41
just just know that the same amount of money will get you goggles and an fpv drone there's no other feeling like
00:53:47
crashing an fpv drone first person yeah it's incredible it's a scary experience for sure
00:53:52
um all right i have one more thing i want to talk about and this is something i had a few weeks ago but we just never
00:53:58
got the chance but netflix is making a bunch of changes and i hate all of them and i just want to
00:54:03
say you're the worst netflix but i guess i can go a little deeper into that i've i can't remember the last time i logged
00:54:10
into netflix i don't know like you just don't watch anything on netflix i have an account i don't watch anything okay yeah but it
00:54:17
yeah i can see the upper i see i'm gonna be paying more for this thing i don't use okay so how much is it now okay um basic
00:54:24
plan 8.99 to 9.99 standard plan 13.99 to 1545 premium plan 17.99 to 1999. so like
00:54:32
a like an inflation worthy bump couple dollars but there's also like a few things that are changing about it which i really don't like um
00:54:39
maybe this is what's going on right now but my my biggest gripe here is
00:54:45
you can only get 4k on the premium plan which lets you have up to four screens playing at the same time
00:54:51
the other plans you can't get 4k on it including the basic plan which only lets you use one screen at a time so if
00:54:57
you're somebody who wants 4k content but maybe only has one tv you have to pay
00:55:03
what everybody else is doing for four different televisions which seems ridiculous double the price
00:55:08
yep i don't know why there's not like an 11 version that's one screen 4k so they can make two more
00:55:14
yeah if they let you like add on things feature by feature everyone will be
00:55:20
paying less money for netflix if the contents in 4k just let us play in 4k it makes no word it's 20 22. we're way past
00:55:27
this like come on just offer 4k for do you remember when the pandemic was starting and bandwidth was at like a
00:55:33
premium and they actually had to not give everyone high high quality was that was that when youtube did the like and
00:55:39
youtube defaulted everything to 480 too why are our best waveform clips that to me says like
00:55:45
there is a point where like yeah bandwidth is expensive and they
00:55:51
have to make their money to to stream and forecast they're making their money and just you know i'm just being devil's
00:55:56
advocate here okay well stop um uh and then another thing that we
00:56:01
find so they're also testing two different things um one is a lower price tier that's ad supported
00:56:08
i despise that hulu has it right now and it's the worst i have to watch like five or six minutes of ads on a like 20
00:56:15
minute tv show oh like normal tv like normal tv it's awful i hate it um and then they're also
00:56:23
which is very funny here they're cracking down on sharing passwords which is like
00:56:28
throughout next netflix's like entire life people share passwords and you're always just like oh yeah do you have
00:56:35
netflix well yeah i'm using my like mother's aunt's account um and then everybody just has somebody else's
00:56:41
account yeah to the point where they've even memed it on twitter in 2017. yeah they have a tweet that just says
00:56:47
love is sharing a password oh that's so nice corporate netflix in 2017. yeah corporate netflix doesn't agree with a
00:56:53
current corporate netflix apparently because they're testing in a few south american countries i believe
00:56:58
adding an extra like two to three dollars per account per like per sharing account on uh and they'll
00:57:05
somehow like figure out if you're in you know multiple households like how are they gonna i don't know i get yeah maybe
00:57:11
something like that they'll just require you to sign in again out of the blue randomly they'll just sign you out it's very confusing though because like you
00:57:17
could have netflix on your phone and go to a friend's house and uh screencast it is that considered sharing an account
00:57:22
because you're on like a different ipa address well then how are they going to tell if somebody else is doing it and then also yeah just ask you to verify
00:57:29
yourself again or something i don't know how exactly they're going to do this it's also weird because if you have the basic plan so you're only getting one
00:57:36
screen per account um at the cheapest one if you're adding an account for two
00:57:42
or three extra dollars does that mean you can now play two screens at the same time or you're just on one account can still only use one screen but that one
00:57:49
screen can be used over two different places it's confusing
00:57:54
it's the worst netflix stop i'm actually going to push back a little i think the free cut it adam cut
00:58:00
it the free ad supported tier is it's not free it's not free everyone's not free never mind oh wait
00:58:07
the netflix one though you're saying they're gonna make a it's gonna be cheaper and ad supported or free and cheaper ad supported how much cheaper i
00:58:14
don't know they didn't say i wouldn't doubt if it's literally just the basic plan okay it's the same price i support free content that's at supported if it
00:58:20
was i support free content that's that supported i do not support paid content which is what cable is but like right i
00:58:27
take it back yeah thank you i appreciate it um i did not audio listeners i did not threaten him to take that back um
00:58:34
but yeah like netflix was the alternative to cable that everybody loved because of the no ads you just
00:58:40
paid for it people loved to be able to just pay for five minutes of ads on a tv show right now i'm watching attack on
00:58:47
titan because i'm late to the game and i love it i've heard good things and the first season was on netflix with no ads
00:58:54
so i just crushed through the whole thing and now i'm watching way less of it because hulu
00:58:59
we're not paying for the like explain that is it unskipable ads like you say you're watching it it pops up it says
00:59:05
now we will play i will go through an attack on titan episode for you okay okay short recap
00:59:11
or no sorry ad short recap intro ad
00:59:16
like 10 minutes unskipable 10 minutes of ads no no sorry 10 minutes of show oh
00:59:21
okay two minutes of ads 10 minutes of show two minutes of ad and then the like uh
00:59:27
preview for next episode so i have to watch another like two minutes of ad just to watch the like little preview for the next one it's like it's probably
00:59:34
around six minutes of ad on a like 21 minute show that's right no more i throw something
00:59:39
in here yeah the other day i was watching a movie on hulu and i pay for the ad supported one and even in movies
00:59:45
like after the first 15 minutes it threw me into it it interrupts the movie it interrupts the movie and it was a very
00:59:51
suspenseful scene i was sitting at the edge of my seat and then actually i i was watching youtube logged out a
00:59:57
little while ago and a mid-roll popped up in the middle of a video and it made me so mad and i can't like i highly
01:00:04
recommend paying for youtube premium just to avoid that experience but i cannot imagine being in the middle of a
01:00:09
movie i mean we're even still really strict on
01:00:14
i don't know it would be like the what kind of ad that pops up in the middle of watching something is also
01:00:20
like really funny the character turns to the cameras like which is why i use this toilet paper and you're like what's
01:00:26
happening right now it's a baked in ad no that's fine oh no um so yeah i hate it
01:00:34
uh netflix has been the hero long enough to become the villain i think and you're not far
01:00:39
off from being comcast level wow i said it don't i don't want to say it prove me
01:00:45
wrong netflix i'm sure this one podcast will definitely make all the difference we'll see we'll see what they do yeah
01:00:51
all right well that's been it for this week we had a lot to go over but we do have a lot coming up next week so we
01:00:57
have the ai video on the channel and that's obviously worth checking out next week a lot more good stuff so stay tuned
01:01:02
for that we should go over our trivia answers now i think i have two points locked but i
01:01:09
want to see all right let's get back to them the first question what was the first iphone to have the retina display
01:01:17
right you should let me answer first yeah very curious what your context is so you don't i should say sorry the current
01:01:23
score is marquez has five andrew has three okay closer than i thought all right i want well
01:01:30
let's just say a d or iphone which iphone yeah eight iphone eight retina display
01:01:37
the way you're saying that so think about it i just want to help you out a little bit sure because it's okay retina display do you remember
01:01:44
when they defined the retina display on stage they got on stage and they were like this display is the first display
01:01:49
where the pixels are so small that your eye cannot discern like individual pixels on the screen
01:01:55
from a readable from the from this distance okay and then they made that screen and then every screen for the
01:02:00
next like x years had the same pixel density because they're like yeah we got it retina red and hd they're all they're
01:02:06
all here i have a question is there something called super retina display uh i think at this point they have like a
01:02:13
super retina lcd in the iphone uh 10r or something weird
01:02:18
something there is something called super random display and i got confused because i'm not sure if that's
01:02:25
different than retina display and i'm not sure if it's newer and i don't know what retina does play yeah
01:02:30
yeah i'm not sure if adam's trying to mess it up you know that's different i should give up on helping yeah oh you shouldn't help at all without being
01:02:37
honest yeah it's the iphone 4 yeah yeah iphone 4
01:02:43
that was like one of the biggest changes to the iphone in history because that's the one that got leaked remember the rectangle design
01:02:49
the new you know glass front and back all that fun stuff yeah i'm going to do significantly worse on questions from
01:02:55
before i started working here that's fair super retina was on to 10. okay so i'm thinking
01:03:01
around that because eight and ten came out at the same time and i was thinking maybe it's just on the eight and that could be conserved first that's safe
01:03:07
good safe oh yeah i'll give myself a minor pad on the back how about david i would probably be
01:03:13
asking for half credit yeah okay so current score marquez six andrew
01:03:18
three all right the other question uh let's see it rigged
01:03:23
and you could get this one i hope so you may know that mac is andrew's dog what you might not know is that mac isn't his
01:03:30
full name do you know what it is here's a question for you
01:03:35
yes his full name that was on his collar when i first caught him do you have that
01:03:41
or do you have whoa like pre you naming him free mac no not pre mac it's
01:03:48
it has to do let's just say your answer all right that's it i'll say what yeah i'm curious yeah i thought it was bert
01:03:54
macklin correct okay this caller said burt
01:04:00
i think it has to be included in the name so that's fair okay i don't know well i'll give him i had bert macklin
01:04:06
but okay so you're going back burt macklin fbi yeah yeah all right so you both get
01:04:12
points okay yeah it's pretty good for those of you who don't know that's a parks and rex uh reference uh
01:04:17
he was the alter ego of andy dwyer when he becomes an fbi agent for macklin yeah
01:04:23
that's his full name now you guys can stop asking you just reference this clip thank you or you can ask a million times because you won't see this clip or
01:04:29
forget about it there's still people who ask what the k stands for in your name even though we released that five million subs ago okay we'll we'll
