<v Speaker 1>always buying stuff and trying to figure out what's the

0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>best technology and learn stuff. I mean, there's always a

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>new app out, there's always something that is perplexing you

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:06.319
<v Speaker 1>in the tech world, and that's why I'm here to

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:10.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of give you those answers. So we've got Facebook questions.

<v Speaker 1>nine four three zero zero three three one zero five

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 1>to nine four three zero zero three. The big news

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>this week, of course, was Facebook, with lots of new

0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:34.559
<v Speaker 1>features announced at their F eight This is their big

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>developers conference up in San Francisco. And the things that

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:40.279
<v Speaker 1>you guys need to know about here's the most important stuff.

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Number one, dating inside of Facebook. So Facebook is now

0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 1>going to be a dating app as well. You don't

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:50.920
<v Speaker 1>have to use the feature. You do have to set

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.760
<v Speaker 1>up a separate profile for that to work. And they're

0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 1>not going to show your full name. And also people

0:01:56.760 --> 0:01:58.760
<v Speaker 1>are going to be able to text you, but you're

0:01:58.800 --> 0:02:00.880
<v Speaker 1>not gonna be able to see links or photos right

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 1>off the bat, so it's gonna take a little back

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 1>and forth. So that's good. People don't just send you

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:09.560
<v Speaker 1>crazy pictures. That's the number one thing. So Facebook, why

0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:14.080
<v Speaker 1>are they adding dating? Well, Facebook knows everything about everyone clearly,

0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.079
<v Speaker 1>they know your likes, they know your dislikes, and imagine

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:19.919
<v Speaker 1>their algorithms just getting better and better over time hooking

0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>people up. And they actually said that this is not

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>a hookup platform. This is really a platform for lifelong relationships,

0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:29.400
<v Speaker 1>so that'll be interesting. There's a lot of apps that

0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>already use Facebook as kind of their basis for connecting people,

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>and so this makes a lot of sense that Facebook

0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 1>is going to do this themselves. So the feature is

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:42.640
<v Speaker 1>not in Facebook just yet, but it is coming soon.

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>So be on the lookout for a dating feature inside

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.079
<v Speaker 1>the Facebook gap. And they said they're going to get

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.640
<v Speaker 1>potential matches on dating preferences, things in common, and also

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 1>mutual friends. And of course you discover others through similar

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.160
<v Speaker 1>interests through groups or events. That's kind of an interesting one.

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 1>So if you are in sort of a group of hikers,

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.040
<v Speaker 1>you might be able to find someone in that group

0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>because you already know you have a shared love of hiking.

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:13.760
<v Speaker 1>So I feel like these relationships these days, with the

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:17.799
<v Speaker 1>online stuff, the person that you're meeting up with is

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>getting closer and closer to like who you are, just

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>another version of them. All right, I'll tell you some

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>more Facebook features in a moment, but let's just go

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.800
<v Speaker 1>right to the phone lines nine O nine you're on

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>with Rich? Is this one of my regulars?

0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:32.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh? Yeah, this is me, This is Sam.

0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>How'd you get in so quick, Sam, what's up?

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.480
<v Speaker 2>I have no idea, but hey, I got a question

0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:38.800
<v Speaker 2>for you.

0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let me make sure that people can hear you.

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Hold on one second, because last time, you know, you

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>came in, nobody could hear you. Okay, yeah, I can.

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 1>I can see they can hear you. So what's going on?

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.040
<v Speaker 2>I just got a quick question. A friend of mine's

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:55.200
<v Speaker 2>going to cut the cable here pretty quick, and I

0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 2>told him that before you know, he's like with direct TV,

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 2>and I told him, I said, before you do you know,

0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 2>before we call the guy out, we need to go

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 2>down and get you a good outdoor antenna. And I

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 2>think a lot of these guys that work for these

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:16.359
<v Speaker 2>companies are independent contractors. So I'm hoping that when the

0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:19.440
<v Speaker 2>guy comes out to pull the disc or the dish,

0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 2>that he can pay the guy to, you know, put

0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 2>up his antenna. Do you know what I'm saying?

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I see what you're saying. That's uh hmm. That's

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:31.840
<v Speaker 1>an interesting one. I'd be curious to see. Now. I

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>will say that I did have a Dish network came

0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 1>out to my place to put up an antenna here,

0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:40.920
<v Speaker 1>so I think they do it paid. I don't know

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.359
<v Speaker 1>if they will actually do it sort of under the table.

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 1>That's an interesting one because the guy's up on the

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.159
<v Speaker 1>roof anyway, and the cable's already run right.

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 2>Right. And you know, like years ago when I moved

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 2>into this house, the guy from Time Warner came out

0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:01.839
<v Speaker 2>and I need did the post safe out of my van.

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:05.039
<v Speaker 2>And I looked at the guy and I said, hey,

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I said, you're an independent contractor, aren't you in The

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 2>guy said yeah, I said, you want to make a

0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:10.719
<v Speaker 2>quick ten bucks? He goes, what do I gotta do?

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 1>And I agree. I've been known to ask people that

0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:16.840
<v Speaker 1>come to my house to do certain things to do

0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 1>other things. I'm like, hey, while you're here. We In fact,

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>it was funny when we when we got some furniture delivered,

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.160
<v Speaker 1>the chair that they were, you know, that we were replacing.

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I said, hey, do you mind helping me put this

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.840
<v Speaker 1>in the garage? That's not part of your job, right,

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>But the guy did not mind. I tipped him twenty

0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.680
<v Speaker 1>bucks and it was all good. So I think you're

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:36.719
<v Speaker 1>onto something. I don't know. I'd be curious when your

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.880
<v Speaker 1>friend does this, does he already have the antenna that

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 1>he wants to put up there.

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, we're going to probably go over like Walmart

0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 2>and find one, you know. I mean I got mine

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 2>at a good Will for like eight bucks. It was

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 2>like one hundred dollars antenna somebody you know got rid of.

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.479
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I know they have him over there

0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:58.560
<v Speaker 2>for you know, right around eighty ninety dollars. Do you

0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 2>have anyone that you would recommend.

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, it depends what kind of reception he gets. But

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if he wants to, it depends how much

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 1>he wants to pay. But and how much reception you want.

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I like this one. I just tested it. It's called

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the leaf Glide and it's from Mohu and it's ninety

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.159
<v Speaker 1>dollars but it gets it. I plugged in three antennas

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>to my TV in the same area, and this one

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>got the most channels and it pulled in all the

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:28.880
<v Speaker 1>channels actually for LA. So this is the one that

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 1>I really liked. Glide sixty five mile range indoor amplified

0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>HD antenna and I didn't even hook up the amplified part.

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>That was before I actually plugged it in. So this

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 1>one was pretty good. But I also if you want

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to get just a regular one that's not as expensive.

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:49.039
<v Speaker 1>The Mohu leaf is kind of the one that made

0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>them famous, and that one is pretty low on Amazon

0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 1>right now. It's like thirty let's see thirty nine ninety nine,

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>but on Amazon it's even cheap it.

0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but that's an indoor tip.

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh you're talking outdoor. That's right, you're talking out tour.

0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.000
<v Speaker 1>You know what, I don't you know what, just go

0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>to Walmart. If you're putting an outdoor anyway, you're gonna

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>get a good signal for the most part, I think.

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>So I bought that I bought. I bought that leaf,

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 2>the you know, the one that was uh, you know, amplified,

0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 2>and it didn't it really didn't work for me, you know.

0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean it wasn't until uh well, you know, originally

0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 2>I thought I had to put it on the roof,

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:34.280
<v Speaker 2>but this one that I had came with a an

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.200
<v Speaker 2>adapter just amount it on the facia. So I just

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.880
<v Speaker 2>got out my ladder, put it on the facia, pointed

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 2>at where I thought all the you know, the reception

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 2>would be, and I get everything. So, you know, basically,

0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:48.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna, you know, try to help him, you know,

0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:49.880
<v Speaker 2>once he cuts the cable.

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, I I hope it works for him. I mean,

0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I think, uh, I think he'll get some good if

0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 1>he's putting it on his roof. I think he'll get

0:07:56.760 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 1>some pretty good channels. So yeah, right, I had to

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 1>h while I was talking to you, my TV repeat

0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 1>went out, so if you watch the live show later

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.800
<v Speaker 1>you'll see. But this is great. This is the beauty

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:14.360
<v Speaker 1>of doing this all on your own. All right, Sam,

<v Speaker 4>which I'm in love with, and I want to ask

0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 4>you a question about the micro f sd XC card. Okay, okay,

0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 4>So I want to make a jump up because I'm

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.160
<v Speaker 4>actually filling up with all my photos and then love

0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 4>clouded stuff, and I'm thinking to go to the one

0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:00.319
<v Speaker 4>or two fifty six I know with what you help

0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:03.080
<v Speaker 4>me with a little flash drive that going to a

0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:06.680
<v Speaker 4>bigger storage allows more processing. Is that true in the phones?

0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.800
<v Speaker 4>Also as far as speed of processing.

0:09:10.320 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 1>No, not this. This is just to store items on

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.400
<v Speaker 1>this on this card, So it doesn't actually speed up

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:21.520
<v Speaker 1>anything on the phone. So when you're talking computer memory,

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>when you put more memory in, it definitely speeds up

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the computer. But this is something totally different. This is

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>like just adding a hard drive to your phone, and

0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:31.280
<v Speaker 1>so it's not going to speed up the phone in

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:33.440
<v Speaker 1>any particular way.

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 4>So two fifty six sounds like a lot of overkill.

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.959
<v Speaker 1>I would say. So, I mean, what do you have

0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:40.760
<v Speaker 1>in there right now?

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:45.720
<v Speaker 4>Tons of pictures, mostly photos, but I end up storing

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:48.320
<v Speaker 4>some videos, but not full length movies.

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>What size card do you have though?

0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 4>All right now, I'm sorry, I think I have thirty two?

0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So I think that a one twenty eight would

0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>probably be a pretty big jump for you, and I

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 1>think you're not going to fill that up. I mean,

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 1>that's that's a pretty good amount. A one eight gigabyte

0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:09.839
<v Speaker 1>sand disc Ultra micro SD card, which is what you're

0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:13.920
<v Speaker 1>talking about needing, is thirty seven dollars on Amazon, So

0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.000
<v Speaker 1>that's a pretty good deal. And I think, I mean,

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>you could jump up to the two fifty six. I

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 1>just I think it's overkill. I don't think you need it.

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I think that unless if you're doing a lot of

0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:27.160
<v Speaker 1>four K videos or something, then maybe, But right now,

0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I just don't think you really need that.

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.679
<v Speaker 4>You know. A last little caveat to this, I've found it.

0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 4>My only problem with this phone, which I love. I

0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:39.679
<v Speaker 4>can't tell you how much I'm locked into this not

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:43.480
<v Speaker 4>eight is I do have time hard time getting I

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.719
<v Speaker 4>usually carry two cards because I do work with it.

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:50.199
<v Speaker 4>When I'm doing my reporting stuff and I'm doing a

0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:53.080
<v Speaker 4>video or whatnot, it's easier for me to transfer. But

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.280
<v Speaker 4>that little trade that they use, yes, it seems to

0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.439
<v Speaker 4>be difficult to slide those in, and I can't get

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 4>a resolve of it. I'm not sure if it's the

0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 4>design flaw or just my phone in particular is having

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:05.080
<v Speaker 4>a problem.

0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 1>You mean when you try to what the when you

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:09.400
<v Speaker 1>try to slide in the card kind of pops up

0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 1>a little bit.

0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 4>Exactly. Yeah, we'll stand. I like carrying two cards so

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.439
<v Speaker 4>I can do my business on one if I'm doing

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:20.440
<v Speaker 4>a photo shoot or I'm not doing some reporting, and

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:22.200
<v Speaker 4>then keep on personal on another one.

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 1>That's a tough one. Yeah, I agree. I've I've had

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>that problem with several phones with the SIM card slot

0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>in general, where the SIM doesn't really stay in or

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I agree with the with the Samsung phone. Now I'm

0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.080
<v Speaker 1>not I'm not changing out the card that many times,

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.280
<v Speaker 1>but I do agree sometimes they kind of pop up

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:41.920
<v Speaker 1>because they've gotten so flimsy with these plastic slots that

0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:43.520
<v Speaker 1>they don't really hold the card in. I used to

0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>tape them in sometimes, but very very thinking that. Yeah,

0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:48.600
<v Speaker 1>but I don't recommend that.

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.920
<v Speaker 4>Thank you so much for your show and your time.

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 4>I appreciate it, and you do a great job.

0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, Brian, thanks for calling in from a fun

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Tana today. I appreciate that. All right, let's just go

0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.560
<v Speaker 1>right to the next line. Sick two six six two

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:07.520
<v Speaker 1>six you're on with Rich Hello, Hello, Hi, I know

0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:09.240
<v Speaker 1>you're surprised you got you got right in.

0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 3>I did.

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:11.120
<v Speaker 6>I did.

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:13.599
<v Speaker 3>Let me tune you off on my computer because I

0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:15.760
<v Speaker 3>can listen to that. Got a cool question.

0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Who am I speaking with? First off?

0:12:18.040 --> 0:12:18.800
<v Speaker 3>This is Christine?

0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:22.679
<v Speaker 1>Christine, Okay, I've called in the past, has been a while. Okay,

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:23.520
<v Speaker 1>what I watched.

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:27.200
<v Speaker 3>In Channel five all the time, So I'm looking at

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 3>getting computer for my kids. I've got a eleven year

0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.840
<v Speaker 3>old and a fourteen year old, and my daughter really

0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.760
<v Speaker 3>likes to do a lot of drawing on the computer. Okay,

0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I've got an HP right now that she does, like

0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.480
<v Speaker 3>I can't drawing, but I want to get something in

0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 3>that so she's in high school, get something a little

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.880
<v Speaker 3>more that she could do more drawing and stuff. Would

0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:49.240
<v Speaker 3>what would you recommend a regular computer or a.

0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Mac or oh man, I mean, I'd probably, right off

0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:55.640
<v Speaker 1>the top of my head, I'd recommend an iPad, you know,

0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:57.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, she's got the with the Apple pencil. If

0:12:57.880 --> 0:12:59.360
<v Speaker 1>she's is she an artist?

0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:02.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she really loves to draw, oh man, with a

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:06.720
<v Speaker 3>drawing arm, and she's i mean with the pixels. Is

0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 3>she's doing really amazing stuff? Yeah, I mean a special

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:12.800
<v Speaker 3>So I'm like, I'm looking for something that I really

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:14.560
<v Speaker 3>encouraged it in there.

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh man. I mean I think that the you can

0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 1>get a basic iPad for the you know, most basic

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.080
<v Speaker 1>version now supports Apple pencil, which is three hundred and

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine dollars, and then the Apple pencil is another

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:30.280
<v Speaker 1>one hundred, so that's four twenty nine and you're probably

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna want to add a case. You know, you can

0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:33.560
<v Speaker 1>always get that later, but that's you know, you're talking

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:37.600
<v Speaker 1>about five hundred dollars year. But I do think I

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.520
<v Speaker 1>think the iPad is going to be really nice for

0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 1>her because that's going to be the most flexible when

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>it comes to drawing. And I mean, I'm I'm playing

0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:47.679
<v Speaker 1>with one right now, and I just I mean, I

0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:49.800
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you can see this on the Facebook live. Yeah,

0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>it's it's just unbelievable. The way you can draw on

0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:57.720
<v Speaker 1>this thing is you know, I mean, it's just so great,

0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:01.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's just it's it's like I never wanted

0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:03.640
<v Speaker 1>to like the iPad with the Apple pencil, but I

0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:05.880
<v Speaker 1>have fallen in love with it, and it's so much fun.

0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Not to mention for my job, I love that I

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>can highlight stuff on PDFs here because it wastes a

0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:16.480
<v Speaker 1>whole lot less paper, and the Apple pencil you have

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.080
<v Speaker 1>to charge that. It's just it really is well done. Now.

0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 1>The other thing i'd recommend, if you're not going to

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>if you want to get a full sized computer, they

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:33.560
<v Speaker 1>have something from Microsoft called the Surface Studio, and this

0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:35.880
<v Speaker 1>is a lot more expensive, though I think this is

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna be way way more expensive. I'm not familiar with

0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:40.280
<v Speaker 1>the price, so I gotta see, but I'm guessing it's

0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:43.960
<v Speaker 1>fifteen hundred dollars. Oh yeah, never mind, you're talking three

0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars.

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.160
<v Speaker 5>I say go with the iPads.

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah never mind. I'm looking at that. It's like huh uh.

0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.440
<v Speaker 1>So I say go with the iPad. I think it's

0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 1>very creative. If she is into art and into creativity.

0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine a better device for that because it

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.200
<v Speaker 1>just really unlocks that creativity and there's so many great

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>apps for it. That's the other side of this. I'd

0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:05.880
<v Speaker 1>recommend a touchscreen computer, but they're not going to have

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.760
<v Speaker 1>the same amazing apps that the iPad's going to have.

0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 3>Right, And I have one other question. What is the

0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 3>difference between the chromebook and this irregular computer?

0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>So a chromebook is basically referring to the operating system

0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 1>on it. So a chromebook is most people think of

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Windows or Mac or Chromebook. So chromebook the operating system.

0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever used Google Chrome, like the web browser. Yeah,

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 1>so imagine that as your entire operating system. So everything

0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:40.080
<v Speaker 1>sort of happens inside that web browser. And nowadays, when

0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:42.240
<v Speaker 1>you really think about how we use our computers. There's

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:44.560
<v Speaker 1>almost no need to go outside a web browser. You

0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:47.960
<v Speaker 1>do your email, you do your YouTube, you can look

0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 1>at your photos on there. So a lot of that

0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:51.240
<v Speaker 1>stuff is just happening in there.

0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:54.640
<v Speaker 3>So that the kid score are using chromebooks down here.

0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, exactly, and it's and it's the cool thing about

0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>chromebooks is there's no viruses, there's no soft updates. It

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 1>all happened, well, there are, but they all happen sort

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.960
<v Speaker 1>of automatically, so you don't have to worry about updating.

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:09.880
<v Speaker 1>And it's it's a very fast, kind of simple computer

0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>that's very inexpensive. And so a lot of people like these,

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:17.640
<v Speaker 1>especially in the education field, because they've just they're just

0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 1>so easy and they're so simple, so I don't Yeah,

0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.160
<v Speaker 1>you can play games a lot of them. With the

0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:26.680
<v Speaker 1>newer ones, you can download any Android app to them,

0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:31.240
<v Speaker 1>so that's kind of nice too. But and you know,

0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you may you may have luck with that they do.

0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.280
<v Speaker 1>The new the one from Acer. I believe they just

0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>came out with the chromebook with a stylus and it's

0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:44.080
<v Speaker 1>a I think it's an ACER model and that one,

0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.600
<v Speaker 1>yeah here it is. This just came out so you

0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 1>might want to look at that one. This one is

0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:52.280
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and fifty dollars, same price as the iPad basically,

0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:58.160
<v Speaker 1>but it includes the stylus. So that's kind of the

0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:01.480
<v Speaker 1>nice thing about that one. Stylus to you why, Okay,

0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 1>for some reason it will let me search, but there

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:06.840
<v Speaker 1>there's a picture of it with the stylist there. So anyway,

0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:08.600
<v Speaker 1>those are your options. I'd say go with the iPad.

0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:10.520
<v Speaker 1>I think you're going to spend a little bit more,

0:17:10.560 --> 0:17:12.960
<v Speaker 1>but I think the the return on investment is going

0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:14.720
<v Speaker 1>to be the highest out of any of these things,

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:19.560
<v Speaker 1>if you ask me. All Right, Christine, thanks for calling in,

0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:20.200
<v Speaker 1>appreciate it.

0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:22.760
<v Speaker 3>Hey, take care, have a good one.

0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:26.800
<v Speaker 1>But bye. All right, moving right along, phone number three

0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:31.439
<v Speaker 1>one zero five nine four three zero zero three. So

0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:33.679
<v Speaker 1>while I wait for another call, I'll tell you more

0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:37.359
<v Speaker 1>about Facebook and what they're doing. Man, they're just adding

0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:39.960
<v Speaker 1>so many features to this thing. So to my TV,

0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I was still on, Okay, let's see crisis response. I

0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.840
<v Speaker 1>thought this was kind of interesting. People that are affected

0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.480
<v Speaker 1>by a crisis can now share first hand accounts of

0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:54.479
<v Speaker 1>information like road closures, damage, photos and videos. And that

0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:56.640
<v Speaker 1>feature is rolling out later this year, so they're kind

0:17:56.640 --> 0:18:00.960
<v Speaker 1>of putting people in the citizen journalism. Real people have

0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:02.960
<v Speaker 1>already been doing this on Facebook, but now they're going

0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:06.120
<v Speaker 1>to group it with some sort of crisis. So let's

0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.840
<v Speaker 1>say with the fires we had here in California, you'd

0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:12.120
<v Speaker 1>be able to upload videos of your area to let

0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:14.159
<v Speaker 1>people know kind of what's happening if the streets are

0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:16.439
<v Speaker 1>closed or if areas were burned that you know, you

0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:20.880
<v Speaker 1>wanted people to avoid. So that's pretty interesting. And then Instagram,

0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:23.800
<v Speaker 1>the big feature that they're adding there is video chat.

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.960
<v Speaker 1>And I was talking about this with my brother today

0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's one of those things where why is Instagram

0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:35.200
<v Speaker 1>getting all these features? Well, Instagram is now the de

0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:38.960
<v Speaker 1>facto app for everyone, and Facebook sees some people moving

0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:41.399
<v Speaker 1>away from Facebook, so they're just trying to do whatever

0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:45.280
<v Speaker 1>possible to keep people in the platform. And Instagram is

0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:49.480
<v Speaker 1>owned by Facebook. And video chat is the next logical extension.

0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:52.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean a lot of people are chatting through Instagram,

0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:55.200
<v Speaker 1>so video chat kind of works. So and the cool

0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.280
<v Speaker 1>thing about that is it's cross platforms. You can video

0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>chat with someone whether it's I'm Android or iOS, so

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.480
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to worry about that. See who has

0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:05.919
<v Speaker 1>the best deal on the Robert says, who has the

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:09.760
<v Speaker 1>best deal on the sixth generation iPad? You know, when

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:11.360
<v Speaker 1>it comes to iPads, you kind of have to look

0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:13.960
<v Speaker 1>out for deals. Apple usually doesn't put them on sale,

0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:18.320
<v Speaker 1>but usually BNH Photo will put them on sale, and

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:20.359
<v Speaker 1>so will Best Buy once in a while. So watch

0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:22.440
<v Speaker 1>those two. And the best way to do that really

0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:25.320
<v Speaker 1>is just set an alert in slick deals. So if

0:19:25.359 --> 0:19:27.639
<v Speaker 1>you set an alert in slick Deals, you'll get an

0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:30.640
<v Speaker 1>email every time an iPad goes on sale. So that's

0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:32.800
<v Speaker 1>what I did when I was buying my kids the

0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:37.440
<v Speaker 1>iPad Minis. I just put an alert and I got

0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:39.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of good deals on there, so that was cool.

0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Cindy says, why all of a sudden am I getting

0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:45.160
<v Speaker 1>news pushing on my iPhone? I assume you're talking about

0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the Facebook News app, because if you open that up once,

0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:51.840
<v Speaker 1>you'll start to get notifications from it. If you want

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.840
<v Speaker 1>to turn that off, you have to go into your notifications.

0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:59.600
<v Speaker 1>So all you have to do is go into let's

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:04.199
<v Speaker 1>see here, you go into your settings. Hang on, you

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 1>go into your settings on your phone. You go down

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:10.199
<v Speaker 1>to notifications and they scroll all the way down and

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:13.119
<v Speaker 1>there's one for news and you turn that off. And

0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I know that because I did that on my phone

0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:17.879
<v Speaker 1>yesterday six six one. You're on with Rich. Who am

0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:18.479
<v Speaker 1>I speaking with?

0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:19.920
<v Speaker 4>Hey?

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 6>Rich, it's Greg from the av.

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Hey Greg, what's going on?

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:27.240
<v Speaker 6>Not a whole lot? Well, actually a whole lot?

0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, are you moving from the a V Oh no.

0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.040
<v Speaker 6>No, we're still going to be in the AV.

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, then you can't. You have to say Greg from

0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:41.880
<v Speaker 1>somewhere else the I E. Remember I said that one time.

0:20:42.880 --> 0:20:48.040
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but yeah, it's just been hectic and uh but

0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 6>I think we're on the last leg right now.

0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Did you get a good price for your house? I mean,

0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:55.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, LA real estate, California real estate is like,

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:56.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's a gold rush here.

0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:03.560
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, And we were surprised that it went on every website,

0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:08.520
<v Speaker 6>Zillo and all that on Tuesday, and that same day

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:14.920
<v Speaker 6>we had three viewers. And then Thursday we had two

0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:15.800
<v Speaker 6>offers for the house.

0:21:15.880 --> 0:21:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, two days. Come on, this is ridiculous.

0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Two days to sell a house only in California. That's unbelievable. Wow.

0:21:24.960 --> 0:21:28.159
<v Speaker 6>Well good for you, but yes, thank you. But I

0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:31.280
<v Speaker 6>didn't have a question. I just wanted to get some information.

0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:35.840
<v Speaker 6>I just recently got my direct TV bill down to

0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:40.560
<v Speaker 6>twenty two dollars for what I'm sorry for.

0:21:40.720 --> 0:21:42.040
<v Speaker 1>What what does that get you?

0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:47.000
<v Speaker 6>Well, I got the h I think it's called the

0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:53.159
<v Speaker 6>Entertainment Package, okay, and I've been a long customer. I

0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:55.800
<v Speaker 6>mean I think I've been a customer for like fifteen years.

0:21:55.840 --> 0:21:58.359
<v Speaker 1>But this is good information for the other viewers because

0:21:58.400 --> 0:22:00.719
<v Speaker 1>if they have direct TVs, you're talking getting twenty two

0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:03.879
<v Speaker 1>dollars for some channels and also your locals too or

0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:05.600
<v Speaker 1>no locals.

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:05.840
<v Speaker 4>Two.

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:11.000
<v Speaker 6>I also got I've got the East Coast channels so

0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:12.840
<v Speaker 6>I can watch the shows at five.

0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:14.720
<v Speaker 1>Wow, that's really cool.

0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:19.200
<v Speaker 6>I have the newest Genie HD.

0:22:20.600 --> 0:22:21.000
<v Speaker 4>Receiver.

0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:25.080
<v Speaker 1>That's great. This is this is quite the deal I'm

0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:27.080
<v Speaker 1>hearing about. So that's amazing.

0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:33.160
<v Speaker 6>I had called one time and they said, since you're

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:37.280
<v Speaker 6>well whoever's a long standing customer, to call back every

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:41.919
<v Speaker 6>three months and they'll always offer you something. Okay, it

0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:45.119
<v Speaker 6>can be it can be five dollars off the bill

0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:49.399
<v Speaker 6>for a year, it can be free HBO for like

0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 6>six months, various things. And this las time when I called,

0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:59.000
<v Speaker 6>they offered me fifty five dollars off the bill.

0:22:58.760 --> 0:22:59.280
<v Speaker 4>For a year.

0:22:59.760 --> 0:22:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:23:00.000 --> 0:23:01.879
<v Speaker 1>Wow, well, my.

0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:04.119
<v Speaker 6>Regular bill was seventy seven. That brought it down to

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:08.000
<v Speaker 6>what up about twenty with taxes and all that.

0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Greg. I think they were sick of you calling every

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 1>three months. That's why they were just like, you know what,

0:23:11.560 --> 0:23:13.160
<v Speaker 1>we're just going to give this guy a really good

0:23:13.200 --> 0:23:16.240
<v Speaker 1>deal because we're sick of his calls. It's costing me more,

0:23:16.520 --> 0:23:19.400
<v Speaker 1>but it's costing more in our customer service rep time.

0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 6>But the biggest thing I got last year, well, I guess, yeah,

0:23:27.119 --> 0:23:33.240
<v Speaker 6>last year I got the the NFL the package for free.

0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, that's yeah, they were that was that. Yeah,

0:23:36.880 --> 0:23:39.199
<v Speaker 1>they were doing that for certain people. I think I

0:23:39.240 --> 0:23:41.000
<v Speaker 1>had that when I had DirecTV they gave me that

0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:44.160
<v Speaker 1>as well. And then but I was a new subscriber,

0:23:44.200 --> 0:23:46.320
<v Speaker 1>so they give you everything when you're a new subscriber.

0:23:46.320 --> 0:23:47.679
<v Speaker 1>And then all of a sudden, the second year, my

0:23:47.720 --> 0:23:50.080
<v Speaker 1>bill went up to like four hundred dollars or something ridiculous.

0:23:50.600 --> 0:23:51.720
<v Speaker 1>All right, see you later.

0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 6>Okay, Yeah, so you know, just call back every three months,

0:23:57.000 --> 0:23:59.600
<v Speaker 6>and you know, ten dollars helps, you know.

0:23:59.760 --> 0:24:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I just got my my cable bill

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.359
<v Speaker 1>for my internet down ten dollars. I wanted it down twenty.

0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:07.720
<v Speaker 1>The guy was not having it, so he got but

0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I got down to ten. They wanted sixty five. I

0:24:09.800 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 1>got it for fifty five. So I'm happy with that,

0:24:12.440 --> 0:24:13.800
<v Speaker 1>you know. I mean it's still a bummer to pay

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:15.720
<v Speaker 1>ten extra dollars a month and I was paying. But

0:24:16.480 --> 0:24:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm fine with the splitting the difference. You know, they

0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.600
<v Speaker 1>got to make money. I get it, and they make

0:24:20.600 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot.

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:23.600
<v Speaker 6>Of it, by the way, Yeah, exactly.

0:24:24.280 --> 0:24:28.119
<v Speaker 1>All right. Well, good advice, good advice, Greg, and congrats

0:24:28.160 --> 0:24:28.639
<v Speaker 1>on the house.

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:33.399
<v Speaker 6>Thank you very much. Hopefully the next time I call in,

0:24:33.520 --> 0:24:35.000
<v Speaker 6>I'll be from the new house.

0:24:35.200 --> 0:24:38.320
<v Speaker 1>Nice all right, let me know how it is, all right,

0:24:38.359 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 1>all right, okay, Greg, take care of thank you.

0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:43.840
<v Speaker 6>All right, you did the same, all right, but bye, I've.

0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Got too many windows here open there we go. Man,

0:24:46.640 --> 0:24:49.120
<v Speaker 1>two days to sell a house only in California, right,

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these things, it's just unbelievable how fast people

0:24:52.119 --> 0:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>can sell their places here. Let's see, I saw a

0:24:56.520 --> 0:25:00.280
<v Speaker 1>okay we have Diane. Diane says, I I have an

0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:02.800
<v Speaker 1>iPhone six, and I find that I get dropped from

0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 1>my Wi Fi at home a lot. I find that

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:06.400
<v Speaker 1>if I shut my phone down and turn it back

0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:09.000
<v Speaker 1>on and reconnect, then I get Wi Fi back again.

0:25:09.080 --> 0:25:11.159
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what would cause this? Absolutely? Here's what

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:12.879
<v Speaker 1>you need to do, Diane. I just help someone do

0:25:12.960 --> 0:25:15.119
<v Speaker 1>this the other day. And by the way, I have

0:25:15.359 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I told you guys this, but

0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I am writing a book about the iPhone right now.

0:25:18.800 --> 0:25:20.959
<v Speaker 1>So I've been learning a lot, even myself. It's going

0:25:21.000 --> 0:25:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to be a how to book, a bunch of tips

0:25:23.840 --> 0:25:25.119
<v Speaker 1>on how to use it. It's kind of like a

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:27.960
<v Speaker 1>user's guide, but written by rich on tech, so it's

0:25:28.000 --> 0:25:29.920
<v Speaker 1>more fun and it's interesting and it's all the little

0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:31.960
<v Speaker 1>things that I think are good about the iPhone. So

0:25:32.200 --> 0:25:33.520
<v Speaker 1>this was one of the tips that I wrote the

0:25:33.560 --> 0:25:36.600
<v Speaker 1>other day actually, And what you need to do, Diane,

0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:38.840
<v Speaker 1>is you have to go through and you need to

0:25:38.880 --> 0:25:41.679
<v Speaker 1>reset your network settings. So all you have to do

0:25:41.800 --> 0:25:46.240
<v Speaker 1>is go into Settings, then General, then scroll all the

0:25:46.280 --> 0:25:50.280
<v Speaker 1>way down where it says I can't see it reset

0:25:50.359 --> 0:25:52.080
<v Speaker 1>all the way at the bottom. Okay, don't get scared.

0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:55.320
<v Speaker 1>You're not resetting anything crazy. And then the third option

0:25:55.480 --> 0:26:01.360
<v Speaker 1>says reset network settings. Okay, so that's the one that's

0:26:01.400 --> 0:26:03.080
<v Speaker 1>the one that you want to reset right there. So

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 1>if you press that, you have to pop in your passcode.

0:26:06.400 --> 0:26:08.919
<v Speaker 1>But what's gonna happen is your phone is gonna delete

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:11.760
<v Speaker 1>all of your network settings. So that's your cellular network,

0:26:11.960 --> 0:26:14.159
<v Speaker 1>your Wi Fi networks, any of those that you've saved

0:26:14.160 --> 0:26:17.359
<v Speaker 1>in there, and your Bluetooth networks, and you're gonna have

0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 1>to repair your phone to your car and rehook it

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:21.280
<v Speaker 1>up to your Wi Fi at home. But I'm telling

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:24.880
<v Speaker 1>you it is going to solve your problem pronto, because

0:26:24.920 --> 0:26:27.240
<v Speaker 1>what's happening is there's a little bit of confusion inside

0:26:27.240 --> 0:26:29.280
<v Speaker 1>your phone right now with your home Wi Fi network,

0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:33.160
<v Speaker 1>and once you do that little reset, everything's gonna work

0:26:33.200 --> 0:26:35.280
<v Speaker 1>perfectly again. So I just did this with someone out

0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>my work. Helped her do that and she said it

0:26:37.720 --> 0:26:42.480
<v Speaker 1>worked fantastically. So yes, there you have it, phone number

0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:45.440
<v Speaker 1>three one zero five to nine four three zero zero

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:49.199
<v Speaker 1>three three one zero five nine four three zero zero three,

0:26:49.760 --> 0:26:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Mark says tech reporter an author. You're a double threat.

0:26:52.280 --> 0:26:54.800
<v Speaker 1>I love it, you know, Mark. I've every time I

0:26:54.840 --> 0:26:57.639
<v Speaker 1>go on the radio or on TV when I'm a guest,

0:26:58.040 --> 0:27:00.040
<v Speaker 1>I always heard these people. They're like, you know, so

0:27:00.359 --> 0:27:02.760
<v Speaker 1>and so is author of you know whatever book. I

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:04.920
<v Speaker 1>want that to be me. So finally you can say

0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:07.879
<v Speaker 1>author of my book. And I won't tell you the

0:27:07.880 --> 0:27:10.119
<v Speaker 1>title just yet, but it's a fun title too, So

0:27:10.600 --> 0:27:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I just need to finish it. I'm almost done. I've

0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:16.120
<v Speaker 1>got you know. This is actually this podcast right now

0:27:16.160 --> 0:27:18.320
<v Speaker 1>is breaking into my writing time because usually I'm writing

0:27:18.320 --> 0:27:21.080
<v Speaker 1>in the afternoons. But I really want to get this,

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:25.080
<v Speaker 1>really want to get this finished. And Diane says, thanks

0:27:25.119 --> 0:27:27.240
<v Speaker 1>for answering my question. I'll give it a try. Let

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:29.000
<v Speaker 1>me know how it goes. I think you're gonna like it.

0:27:29.960 --> 0:27:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's see. Angel says, what's the easiest way to transfer

0:27:34.760 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 1>iTunes from one computer to another computer? I would think

0:27:40.040 --> 0:27:44.840
<v Speaker 1>you just drag over the iTunes library folder on your

0:27:44.840 --> 0:27:48.520
<v Speaker 1>computer to the new computer and then open iTunes from there.

0:27:48.880 --> 0:27:51.760
<v Speaker 1>It really depends also if you're on a Mac or

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:56.280
<v Speaker 1>a PC, because I think there's a way on iTunes

0:27:56.320 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 1>that you can set where your library is used to

0:27:58.560 --> 0:27:59.920
<v Speaker 1>be able to do that. I'm not sure if you still,

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 1>but I would just copy that entire folder over and

0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:06.720
<v Speaker 1>that way you can just launch it from there. I

0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:08.320
<v Speaker 1>think that's gonna be the best way to do it.

0:28:08.440 --> 0:28:10.159
<v Speaker 1>That's the way I believe I used to do it

0:28:10.160 --> 0:28:14.160
<v Speaker 1>that way, So yeah, three one zero five nine four

0:28:14.400 --> 0:28:17.920
<v Speaker 1>three zero zero three. I don't really use iTunes anymore.

0:28:18.080 --> 0:28:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I used to. I used to, you know, building that

0:28:20.119 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 1>music collection with such a big part of my life,

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:25.399
<v Speaker 1>and now I just subscribe to Spotify. I've got Pandora,

0:28:25.520 --> 0:28:28.159
<v Speaker 1>and I just don't really want to have a music collection.

0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a collection of anything anymore. I used

0:28:30.760 --> 0:28:33.240
<v Speaker 1>to collect everything, stamps and rocks and all kinds of

0:28:33.240 --> 0:28:35.600
<v Speaker 1>stuff and books, and now I just don't even do

0:28:35.640 --> 0:28:41.320
<v Speaker 1>any of that stuff. Uh rohe says, great show. What

0:28:41.320 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 1>do you think of Uber and Google announcements next week? Yeah,

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:48.320
<v Speaker 1>those are gonna be big. So Uber is having a

0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:51.520
<v Speaker 1>big event here in Los Angeles, Uber Elevate, and I

0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 1>think they're gonna be talking about their flying cars, which

0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I know isn't that crazy? So that is pretty interesting.

0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Then Google up in San Francisco is doing something called

0:29:01.120 --> 0:29:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Google Io and that's basically their big developers conference, and

0:29:05.360 --> 0:29:07.600
<v Speaker 1>up there they're gonna talk about all the things coming

0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:09.880
<v Speaker 1>to Google in the next year. And I say next year,

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>it might be the next two years, because when I

0:29:11.560 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>went there, it was I did this demo that they

0:29:15.960 --> 0:29:19.600
<v Speaker 1>showed me of ways on Android Auto, and no joke,

0:29:19.760 --> 0:29:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it came out on Android Auto for like,

0:29:22.640 --> 0:29:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I think two years after I did that demo a

0:29:24.680 --> 0:29:26.920
<v Speaker 1>year and a half and that was that was pretty crazy.

0:29:27.320 --> 0:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>So I'm excited. I have to pick one, and I'm

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:32.760
<v Speaker 1>picking Google. So I'm going there and I can't wait

0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:34.800
<v Speaker 1>to see. I thought this was so much fun when

0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I went to Google Io. I went two years ago,

0:29:36.680 --> 0:29:38.600
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen, and it was a blast. I mean,

0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Number one, I got to meet the CEO of Google.

0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:44.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how cool is that? So we were at

0:29:44.440 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 1>a party with him. I mean, what CEO just shows

0:29:47.160 --> 0:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>up to like a party with a bunch of reporters.

0:29:48.920 --> 0:29:51.960
<v Speaker 1>That was really cool, and I got a picture with

0:29:52.040 --> 0:29:55.440
<v Speaker 1>him somewhere, and it's just fun. It's like it's literally

0:29:55.480 --> 0:30:00.200
<v Speaker 1>a nerd fest. It's like a concert with nerds. Let's see.

0:30:01.960 --> 0:30:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Gladys says, how can you sort out pictures on your

0:30:04.400 --> 0:30:07.680
<v Speaker 1>iPhone as opposed to having them all in one folder?

0:30:08.600 --> 0:30:12.080
<v Speaker 1>So the way iPhone pictures work is there's not really

0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:15.040
<v Speaker 1>folders to be done. There's really the only thing you

0:30:15.040 --> 0:30:17.280
<v Speaker 1>can do to sort through them is to put them

0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:22.440
<v Speaker 1>in albums. So the system will make certain folders for

0:30:22.480 --> 0:30:24.800
<v Speaker 1>you if you go in there and you can see

0:30:24.880 --> 0:30:27.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of like the different folders, but they don't even

0:30:27.880 --> 0:30:30.560
<v Speaker 1>really call them folders. They literally call them albums. So

0:30:30.600 --> 0:30:33.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean you get a couple like camera roll favorites,

0:30:33.400 --> 0:30:37.520
<v Speaker 1>people places, videos, selfies, portrait, live photos, slow mo screenshots,

0:30:37.800 --> 0:30:40.200
<v Speaker 1>and then you get to create your own albums. And

0:30:40.240 --> 0:30:42.960
<v Speaker 1>that's really kind of think of albums as folders. That's

0:30:42.960 --> 0:30:44.840
<v Speaker 1>really the best way to do it. But to be honest,

0:30:45.200 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>you really don't need to organize your pictures much anymore

0:30:47.400 --> 0:30:51.480
<v Speaker 1>these days because if you go into the search functionality

0:30:50.600 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 1>of Apple Photos on your iPhone, you can start typing

0:30:54.720 --> 0:30:58.200
<v Speaker 1>anything in there and you'll find your pictures. So type

0:30:58.200 --> 0:31:02.400
<v Speaker 1>in something like Seattle and all your pictures from Seattle

0:31:02.440 --> 0:31:05.520
<v Speaker 1>will come in. I just typed in seat and my

0:31:05.720 --> 0:31:08.640
<v Speaker 1>son and I on the airplane seat came up. So

0:31:08.960 --> 0:31:10.520
<v Speaker 1>that's a little kind of a secret. It's also in

0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:13.200
<v Speaker 1>the book. I know it's all going to the book people.

0:31:13.880 --> 0:31:16.320
<v Speaker 1>So again, this is what I'm playing with every day,

0:31:16.360 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 1>is the iPhone to find out all these little tricks.

0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Seven one four you are on with rich what's up?

0:31:23.720 --> 0:31:24.160
<v Speaker 5>Hi there?

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:25.760
<v Speaker 4>I have a question?

0:31:25.920 --> 0:31:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Who am I speaking from?

0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:31.680
<v Speaker 5>What my name is? Gary? From the Inland Empire. Okay, Mike,

0:31:32.880 --> 0:31:36.200
<v Speaker 5>I need to get a new home computer and it's

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:39.000
<v Speaker 5>going to be shared by a couple of people. What's

0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:42.760
<v Speaker 5>the difference between a two and one versus getting a

0:31:42.800 --> 0:31:43.800
<v Speaker 5>regular laptop?

0:31:44.680 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay? So the main difference between an all and one

0:31:48.080 --> 0:31:50.800
<v Speaker 1>is the power that you get from that device. So

0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:53.239
<v Speaker 1>if you spend the same amount of money on an

0:31:53.280 --> 0:31:56.720
<v Speaker 1>all in one versus a laptop, you're going to get

0:31:56.800 --> 0:31:58.640
<v Speaker 1>more bang for your book with the all in one.

0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:01.800
<v Speaker 1>So the difference is are you going to be moving

0:32:01.840 --> 0:32:03.560
<v Speaker 1>this computer at all? Ever?

0:32:06.360 --> 0:32:09.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I want to use it as I didn't mean

0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:09.560
<v Speaker 5>all in one.

0:32:09.600 --> 0:32:10.040
<v Speaker 4>I meant to.

0:32:10.120 --> 0:32:15.960
<v Speaker 5>A what's those ones that flip around? Okay?

0:32:16.400 --> 0:32:18.440
<v Speaker 1>A two in one? Okay, So like you're talking one

0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that has like kind of a it kind of goes

0:32:21.240 --> 0:32:23.200
<v Speaker 1>backwards and you can use it as a tablet and

0:32:23.240 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 1>it folds up and stuff like that, that kind of

0:32:25.240 --> 0:32:27.160
<v Speaker 1>thing versus a typical laptop.

0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:29.440
<v Speaker 5>That's correct, Okay.

0:32:30.320 --> 0:32:32.760
<v Speaker 1>The difference is really just preference, I mean, and and

0:32:32.800 --> 0:32:34.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times if you have the foldable screen,

0:32:34.880 --> 0:32:36.840
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna have a touch screen as well. Even though

0:32:36.840 --> 0:32:39.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of computers are the Windows side are coming

0:32:39.080 --> 0:32:42.840
<v Speaker 1>with touch screens. Is there a particular model you're looking at?

0:32:43.600 --> 0:32:45.960
<v Speaker 5>Not yet, I haven't got that far that I go

0:32:46.040 --> 0:32:47.680
<v Speaker 5>to the pro for some information.

0:32:48.040 --> 0:32:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean personally, unless you had a use case

0:32:50.960 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 1>for the foldable screen, I would not get that because

0:32:54.520 --> 0:32:57.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna pay more for it, and it's gonna break

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 1>quicker because you're folding the screen backs so often, and

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I think you're gonna be better suited with a regular

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:06.640
<v Speaker 1>laptop unless you have a reason. I mean, the only

0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:09.960
<v Speaker 1>reason I can see forgetting a screen that bends backwards

0:33:10.400 --> 0:33:12.600
<v Speaker 1>is one reason, and that's to watch it on an

0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:16.160
<v Speaker 1>airplane with these you know intent style, you know, where

0:33:16.200 --> 0:33:18.360
<v Speaker 1>you have the computer like this and then it just

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:20.440
<v Speaker 1>sits on the tray and I can watch the screen.

0:33:20.720 --> 0:33:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Otherwise I don't really, I'm personally not writing on my

0:33:24.200 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 1>computer screen. I'm not flipping it backwards to use as

0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:29.200
<v Speaker 1>a tablet. I think it's way too bulky to do that,

0:33:29.760 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 1>so I don't. I don't see a reason to get

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:33.800
<v Speaker 1>it too. In one, I would go with a regular

0:33:33.880 --> 0:33:36.560
<v Speaker 1>laptop over the two and one because you're gonna save money,

0:33:36.640 --> 0:33:38.720
<v Speaker 1>and I think you're gonna save yourself some headaches too.

0:33:40.760 --> 0:33:43.840
<v Speaker 5>My experience with laptops. If they say the battery last

0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:48.520
<v Speaker 5>eight hours, it'll last maybe two hours because they probably

0:33:48.560 --> 0:33:50.120
<v Speaker 5>do those tests with nothing on.

0:33:50.640 --> 0:33:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah they Yeah, is there.

0:33:53.200 --> 0:33:58.440
<v Speaker 5>Any laptops that have a life that's real that last

0:33:58.520 --> 0:33:59.440
<v Speaker 5>eight hours?

0:34:00.320 --> 0:34:03.040
<v Speaker 1>The newer ones do. I mean the Dell XPS that

0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I've tested, that one lasts a really long time. I

0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:08.040
<v Speaker 1>think if it's been a while since you bought a laptop,

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the batteries definitely last longer. But here's the thing. I mean,

0:34:11.440 --> 0:34:13.680
<v Speaker 1>some of the some of the real like business laptops,

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:16.839
<v Speaker 1>are gonna last longer the average laptops you're probably looking at,

0:34:16.880 --> 0:34:19.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, five hours, six hours. It really depends on look.

0:34:20.040 --> 0:34:21.920
<v Speaker 1>It all comes down to what you're doing on the laptop.

0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:24.359
<v Speaker 1>If you're watching any sort of video, it's gonna it's

0:34:24.400 --> 0:34:27.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna go through that battery a lot faster. If you're

0:34:27.040 --> 0:34:29.440
<v Speaker 1>doing any sort of video processing, it's gonna go through

0:34:29.440 --> 0:34:32.879
<v Speaker 1>that battery. Me personally, ever since I got the MacBook Pro,

0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like my battery just goes so fast. But

0:34:35.880 --> 0:34:38.120
<v Speaker 1>with that said, I can you know, if I'm traveling

0:34:38.120 --> 0:34:40.319
<v Speaker 1>for the day, I don't necessarily need to plug in.

0:34:40.680 --> 0:34:43.719
<v Speaker 1>But realistically, if they say the battery is rated for

0:34:43.760 --> 0:34:45.640
<v Speaker 1>fourteen hours. You know you're gonna get half of that.

0:34:45.760 --> 0:34:48.040
<v Speaker 1>You know you're whatever they say, you're not gonna get that.

0:34:48.200 --> 0:34:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Basically that's my experience. But I think, are you looking

0:34:52.040 --> 0:34:53.279
<v Speaker 1>for a Mac or a PC.

0:34:54.760 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 4>PC?

0:34:57.200 --> 0:35:00.359
<v Speaker 1>My advice is to have you figured out where you're

0:35:00.360 --> 0:35:00.920
<v Speaker 1>buying this thing.

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:06.680
<v Speaker 6>No, I haven't even gotten it for so, I mean, I.

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Really like getting the computers at the Microsoft Store if

0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:12.600
<v Speaker 1>you have one near you. The difference between that and

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:15.279
<v Speaker 1>best Buy is that at the Microsoft Store they don't

0:35:15.280 --> 0:35:17.759
<v Speaker 1>add a bunch of extra software onto their computers. They're

0:35:17.800 --> 0:35:20.439
<v Speaker 1>not allowed to. So it's just kind of nice because

0:35:20.440 --> 0:35:22.560
<v Speaker 1>your computer is gonna run smoother, it's gonna run faster,

0:35:22.640 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 1>it's not gonna have a lot of bloatwear on it.

0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:27.480
<v Speaker 1>So if you find yourself near a Microsoft store, just

0:35:27.480 --> 0:35:29.279
<v Speaker 1>pop in and check out some of the computers there.

0:35:29.280 --> 0:35:31.239
<v Speaker 1>And they have a nice selection too. So I'm not

0:35:31.280 --> 0:35:33.480
<v Speaker 1>opposed to best Buy. I just think that sometimes you

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:36.480
<v Speaker 1>can get a little bit better of a system at

0:35:36.520 --> 0:35:40.840
<v Speaker 1>the Microsoft Store. So good question, And yeah, I'd go

0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:44.440
<v Speaker 1>with the I'd go with the just a standard laptop.

0:35:44.480 --> 0:35:46.439
<v Speaker 1>I think that's gonna be best. Thanks Scary for calling

0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:50.120
<v Speaker 1>in from the Ie today. Let's see, we've got Connie

0:35:50.160 --> 0:35:52.960
<v Speaker 1>who says, when we lived in Alta, Dina and we're

0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:56.480
<v Speaker 1>watching you on KTLA. You did a live video from Aldi.

0:35:56.880 --> 0:35:58.959
<v Speaker 1>It was a new to the La area. Since moving

0:35:59.000 --> 0:36:00.640
<v Speaker 1>to Indie. We have a story near us. They just

0:36:00.640 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>did a major renovation. It's much more upscale. Thanks for

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:07.160
<v Speaker 1>the original info. And that's funny you say that because

0:36:07.200 --> 0:36:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I got kicked out of that Aldi. I was on

0:36:09.160 --> 0:36:15.120
<v Speaker 1>a shoot in Kentucky, Lexington. What's the main city in Kentucky, Lexington?

0:36:15.719 --> 0:36:18.359
<v Speaker 1>I guess whatever city that Jennifer Lawrence is from. That

0:36:18.360 --> 0:36:21.920
<v Speaker 1>that was a big claim to fame, Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky.

0:36:22.200 --> 0:36:24.319
<v Speaker 1>And that's where I was. And I never saw an

0:36:24.360 --> 0:36:26.279
<v Speaker 1>Aldi before and I heard that they were coming to

0:36:26.440 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 1>LA and so I went in there and I live

0:36:28.560 --> 0:36:32.280
<v Speaker 1>streamed it and next thing you know, they actually tapped

0:36:32.280 --> 0:36:33.879
<v Speaker 1>me on the shoulder and they said you gotta get out.

0:36:33.960 --> 0:36:36.200
<v Speaker 1>You can't. Well they didn't kick me out, they just

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:37.839
<v Speaker 1>said that you're not all out to live streaming here.

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:39.359
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't even believe they knew what I was doing.

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I was just holding my iPhone right in front of me.

0:36:41.440 --> 0:36:43.799
<v Speaker 1>With but I had headphones on, so I was just

0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:46.719
<v Speaker 1>showing where that was. So thanks for watching when you

0:36:46.719 --> 0:36:50.399
<v Speaker 1>were back here, Connie. What would I suggest for dash

0:36:50.520 --> 0:36:54.680
<v Speaker 1>cam an internal car recording? Well, here's the thing. The

0:36:54.760 --> 0:36:58.319
<v Speaker 1>dashcam I like is called the Vava cam, and that

0:36:58.400 --> 0:37:00.880
<v Speaker 1>one is really cool. Did the did a story on

0:37:00.920 --> 0:37:05.239
<v Speaker 1>that and a lot of you bought one because that

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:08.160
<v Speaker 1>was one of the most popular stories we've done at KTLA.

0:37:08.840 --> 0:37:11.359
<v Speaker 1>So this is it right here, Vava Cam. That's one

0:37:11.400 --> 0:37:16.040
<v Speaker 1>hundred and nineteen dollars. But if you want oh sorry,

0:37:16.080 --> 0:37:18.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm on the wrong thing here there we go. So

0:37:18.560 --> 0:37:21.279
<v Speaker 1>if you want something that records inside your car, you

0:37:21.280 --> 0:37:23.360
<v Speaker 1>can either flip that one around. So if you noticed,

0:37:23.680 --> 0:37:26.040
<v Speaker 1>this one has a swivel, so you can just spin

0:37:26.080 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 1>this around if you want to record the interior of

0:37:28.040 --> 0:37:30.120
<v Speaker 1>your car, and then you can spin it back around

0:37:30.239 --> 0:37:32.799
<v Speaker 1>to record the exterior. But if you want both at

0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:36.480
<v Speaker 1>the same time, there's this dash cam called the owl cam,

0:37:36.520 --> 0:37:38.960
<v Speaker 1>and they really call it a security camera, and this

0:37:39.000 --> 0:37:41.640
<v Speaker 1>one records both the front and the back at the

0:37:41.680 --> 0:37:44.080
<v Speaker 1>same time of your car. The reason why I have

0:37:44.160 --> 0:37:46.560
<v Speaker 1>not done a story on this thing for KTLA is

0:37:46.560 --> 0:37:51.040
<v Speaker 1>that it's really expensive. You're talking. I think, let's see,

0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:54.040
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and fifty dollars and that includes the LTE

0:37:54.160 --> 0:37:57.640
<v Speaker 1>service for a year, So that's much more expensive than

0:37:57.640 --> 0:37:59.439
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people want to spend on a dash cam.

0:37:59.560 --> 0:38:02.120
<v Speaker 1>It's really cool and it has a lot of great features,

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:05.640
<v Speaker 1>but it's just it's an expensive thing, and you have

0:38:05.680 --> 0:38:08.600
<v Speaker 1>to pay once you once you have this thing for

0:38:08.640 --> 0:38:10.399
<v Speaker 1>a while, after the first year, you have to pay

0:38:10.440 --> 0:38:13.880
<v Speaker 1>for LTE service, which I think is ten dollars a month,

0:38:14.360 --> 0:38:18.120
<v Speaker 1>So that's not cheap, all right. Is it possible to

0:38:18.200 --> 0:38:22.719
<v Speaker 1>turn off my TV from a remote area? Hang on?

0:38:22.800 --> 0:38:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Let me know where am I going? Here? From a

0:38:25.080 --> 0:38:29.239
<v Speaker 1>remote area? So I don't have hold on? Is it

0:38:29.280 --> 0:38:31.480
<v Speaker 1>possible to turn my TV off for a remote area?

0:38:31.520 --> 0:38:33.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't have Apple TV and I have an iPhone ten.

<v Speaker 1>a plug and let's see here. It's just all you

<v Speaker 1>need is a smart plug. So that's that's basically what

0:38:58.440 --> 0:39:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to get on here Amazon. Go to Amazon

0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:06.160

0:39:33.000 --> 0:39:36.160
<v Speaker 1>and it's a thirty dollars solution. There are other smart

0:39:36.200 --> 0:39:39.399

<v Speaker 1>Mike says that the Wemo plugs are two fifty at Costco. Yes, Mike,

0:42:01.520 --> 0:42:02.960

<v Speaker 1>two pack and so you can get them for a

0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:08.400
<v Speaker 1>lot cheaper there. I'm a proud Galaxy owner. Is there

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:10.480
<v Speaker 1>a smart watch that you suggest one that I can

0:42:10.600 --> 0:42:15.319
<v Speaker 1>use for calls and we'll play Spotify. Well, the only

0:42:15.360 --> 0:42:17.319
<v Speaker 1>one that really you can do that with with the

0:42:17.440 --> 0:42:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Galaxy is the Samsung Watch. Yeah. Here it is the

0:42:22.080 --> 0:42:25.719
<v Speaker 1>Gear S three and you can get that and that

0:42:25.760 --> 0:42:29.960
<v Speaker 1>one has the phone calls and Spotify is on there

0:42:29.960 --> 0:42:32.319
<v Speaker 1>as well. I hope Spotify is on this one. I

0:42:32.360 --> 0:42:35.600
<v Speaker 1>think it is, Yeah, Spotify offline. That's the only one

0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:38.279
<v Speaker 1>that you can get on with that. The Spotify does

0:42:38.280 --> 0:42:42.080
<v Speaker 1>not work on the Apple Watch, which is insane, and

0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:44.080
<v Speaker 1>it does not work work on the watch that I've

0:42:44.080 --> 0:42:46.680
<v Speaker 1>been wearing lately, which is the Fitbit Versa, which is

0:42:46.719 --> 0:42:49.759
<v Speaker 1>also insane. Come on, Spotify, where are you at these

0:42:50.120 --> 0:42:54.279
<v Speaker 1>on these watches? Let's see what else has got. Time

0:42:54.320 --> 0:42:58.320
<v Speaker 1>for one more question? All right, Samsung TV and Samsung

0:42:58.360 --> 0:43:01.040
<v Speaker 1>TV app on iPhone. Oh, that's it. Interesting. Daniel says

0:43:01.040 --> 0:43:04.279
<v Speaker 1>that the Samsung TV app on iPhone will work as

0:43:04.320 --> 0:43:09.120
<v Speaker 1>well for streaming from iPhone to TV. Hmm, that's interesting.

0:43:09.800 --> 0:43:12.080
<v Speaker 1>I've not tried that. All right, that's gonna do it

0:43:12.120 --> 0:43:15.320
<v Speaker 1>for today's show. Thanks so much for listening. As always,

0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:17.839
<v Speaker 1>I would really appreciate if you like what we're doing here,

<v Speaker 1>leave a review on the Apple podcast app. All you

0:43:20.280 --> 0:43:22.239
<v Speaker 1>have to do is search rich on Tech in the

0:43:22.280 --> 0:43:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Apple podcasts app and leave a review. A written review

0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:28.680
<v Speaker 1>is really good. I'll take the ratings as well. Those

0:43:28.680 --> 0:43:31.680
<v Speaker 1>are great. But those of you that have left these already,

0:43:31.719 --> 0:43:33.520
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much for doing that. It just spreads

0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:35.600
<v Speaker 1>the word about the podcast. The more that Apple sees

0:43:35.640 --> 0:43:38.319
<v Speaker 1>people are interacting with the podcast, the more they're going

0:43:38.400 --> 0:43:40.440
<v Speaker 1>to suggest it to other people to listen to. So
