1
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Hey man.

2
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Hey, how's it going?

3
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Good, how are you?

4
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Doing good.

5
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000
Yeah, we're making it.

6
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Yes.

7
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
It's the end of the school year.

8
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,000
I'm a little bit tired, to be honest with you.

9
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,000
I bet.

10
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Yeah, Garrett has graduation tomorrow night.

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Ah!

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Yes.

13
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Ah!

14
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Yes.

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,000
No.

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Garrett.

17
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Yeah?

18
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000
I saw him at the renewing of your vows, I got to spend a little time hanging around him

19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:08,000
and I just am, I mean, that's a man.

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Yeah.

21
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Wow.

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
That happened.

23
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Yeah, it did.

24
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,000
So, hey, what are we drinking tonight?

25
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Tonight, we have a can.

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,000
It's a can.

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
It's a rare, rare appearance.

28
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,000
This is actually, I think they're Fort Worth, possibly, those guys?

29
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Fort Worth, yep, Martin House Brewing.

30
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Martin House, this is the Bach Slider, Toadies Texas Bach.

31
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,000
It says on the side, music and beer made in Texas by Texans.

32
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Yes, well, I do like the Toadies.

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Toadies.

34
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Yes.

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000
I'm just saying, that was a very satisfying...

36
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Show beer.

37
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000
...open.

38
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Click.

39
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Yep.

40
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,000
Oh, that is very nice.

41
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Way to go, Martin House.

42
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
I can recommend, good job.

43
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Oh yeah, that's good.

44
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Nice, nice, darker...

45
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000
As we were saying, it's the Faux Shiner.

46
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Faux Shiner.

47
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
It's a little bit darker than Shiner, right?

48
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
I mean, I can't actually see it right now.

49
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,000
It might be a little bit.

50
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:17,000
It tastes a little darker than Shiner to me, which is, I mean, it is very pleasant.

51
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Yes.

52
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
So, don't be thinking like heavy, it's great.

53
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,000
I like that.

54
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Yep.

55
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000
Well done.

56
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Nice call, man.

57
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,000
Yeah.

58
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
I had one single bottle in the fridge and I was like, well, I guess I'm going to go buy

59
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000
something.

60
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Well, I really appreciate you letting me mooch off you because I've been up here working

61
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,000
all day long.

62
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000
No problem.

63
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
And did not get a chance to run out, but...

64
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
Because I just came from practice.

65
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Yes, you did.

66
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,000
They are in there practicing still, and I was like, I gotta go.

67
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,000
I got stuff I gotta do.

68
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Oh, man.

69
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,000
Sometimes you just need a break.

70
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Sometimes you just need a break.

71
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,000
It's going to be good.

72
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Sunday is going to be great.

73
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Just not quite ready for it.

74
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Even Jesus took breaks.

75
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,000
That's right.

76
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,000
He did.

77
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,000
It was very necessary.

78
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Yes.

79
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Way more necessary than we want to think sometimes.

80
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Yep.

81
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaking of break, so with summer break coming up, do you all have any plans?

82
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Your summer break is the end of summer break.

83
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,000
Hey, Mack, you're finally waking up.

84
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
My summer break is really work because camp kicks off.

85
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Camp kicks off and you're like going.

86
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,000
Yes.

87
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,000
But then at the end of...

88
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,000
At the end of it all, yes.

89
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:45,000
I know next week, Victoria and Michelle are doing their trip with the flags.

90
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,000
They're going to whichever Disney is in California.

91
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,000
I'm sorry.

92
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,000
That's Disneyland.

93
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Sorry.

94
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Drinking the beer.

95
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Disneyland.

96
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,000
They're going to Disneyland.

97
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,000
Yes.

98
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Something to do with flags and some event that they're going to be in.

99
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,000
So they're going to do that.

100
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Like marching band flags?

101
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Yes, but minus the band, I believe, on this trip.

102
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Interesting.

103
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
It's just flags.

104
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Just the flags.

105
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Yes.

106
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000
So they're going to be out there for that.

107
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000
So Garrett and I will be batching it, so to speak.

108
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Nice.

109
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Beyond that, I'm not sure what's going on this summer.

110
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Garrett is aged out of camp.

111
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000
He sure has.

112
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,000
So we've only got one kiddo going to camp this summer.

113
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000
I'm sure there will be some trip at some point in the second half of summer.

114
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000
But as of right now, I think people are just looking forward to getting out of school.

115
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Yes, because graduation for Garrett.

116
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Tomorrow night.

117
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I'm not ready.

118
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,000
It's not something I need to be ready for.

119
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000
You've got time.

120
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Yikes.

121
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000
I'll be doing this again in three years.

122
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Only three years.

123
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Only three.

124
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Yes, when mine happen, though, they're going to go one, two, and three.

125
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,000
Yes, they are.

126
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Which also is like, wow, what were we thinking?

127
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Which we weren't.

128
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
I mean, that's not how adoption works.

129
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,000
No.

130
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000
But still.

131
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Still.

132
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Yep.

133
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Okay.

134
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Is your Mac working?

135
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000
My Mac is working.

136
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,000
It just, it needed an update.

137
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,000
That's all.

138
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Don't, don't tell me you don't know what that's like, Windows guy over there.

139
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000
I know what it's like.

140
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,000
But not during a show.

141
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Not during a show.

142
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,000
I should have, I, you know, sometimes you accidentally hit the button.

143
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000
I'm going to mute it because that's too much noise.

144
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,000
There you go.

145
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Yeah.

146
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
So we, we're going to talk today.

147
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Try not to get too heated.

148
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
I'm trying not to get too heated.

149
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,000
We're going to talk Macs and PCs.

150
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Yeah.

151
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,000
So.

152
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
The computer civil war.

153
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000
The computer civil war.

154
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000
It has been, you know, since the eighties.

155
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Right?

156
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Yeah.

157
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,000
Yeah.

158
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Yeah.

159
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Since the eighties, it was a little bit.

160
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,000
It was a little bit different before the eighties in terms of who the players were.

161
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Yeah.

162
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Cause it was, it was really more business than anything.

163
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000
Yeah.

164
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000
You didn't, you didn't have business.

165
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Well, I guess there were technically some little home kit computers that you could buy.

166
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Well, that's technically how Apple started.

167
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Yeah.

168
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Being a home kit computer.

169
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,000
Yeah.

170
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,000
But like the ones that I'm, I can't think of the model, but it literally just looks

171
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,000
like a box with blinking lights on the front.

172
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Yeah.

173
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,000
I mean, and I look, here's, here's what I would tell you.

174
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,000
I think that it's funny given where we are now and some of the things that I know are

175
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:06,000
going to come up here in a second that I think that there things started off very differently

176
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:15,000
than where we are now in terms of vision, I guess of what this could be.

177
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:23,000
So this, you know, little device that we have in front of us, and we're just going to stick

178
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,000
right now with computers.

179
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Okay.

180
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Fair enough.

181
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000
We can, we can call in other things, but I feel like the main point of what we're talking

182
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,000
about needs to, needs to stay kind of in this realm.

183
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Okay.

184
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:46,000
I am definitely going to reference an ecosystem, but I think that, I think that that needs to

185
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,000
be like, that's secondary.

186
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Fair enough.

187
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Okay.

188
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000
So why don't you talk us through some of the history here?

189
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Oh boy.

190
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Do you have this off the top of your head?

191
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000
I'm, I'm totally throwing this at you right now.

192
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,000
No, I, I can't say that I prepared for this and maybe as much as I needed to.

193
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Okay.

194
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,000
So bear with me folks.

195
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,000
No, it's fine.

196
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Just what you remember.

197
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,000
How about this?

198
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,000
As someone who was there.

199
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,000
There you go.

200
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,000
Now you make me sound old.

201
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Well you weren't in California either, but.

202
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,000
No, I was not.

203
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:26,000
So I guess thinking back to childhood, I remember Max in the school, the only thing we ever did

204
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,000
was play Oregon trail.

205
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,000
That's right.

206
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,000
And almost nobody survived Oregon trail because you died of dysentery.

207
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,000
Dysentery was a killer for sure.

208
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,000
And trying to forward that river.

209
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:42,000
There is a fun meme out there too about dying from dysentery, but it's not the disease.

210
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,000
It's from dissing the guy named Terry.

211
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,000
That's hilarious.

212
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,000
I'll have to send that to you.

213
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Yeah.

214
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000
My wife likes to, likes, likes the shirt that's come out.

215
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:59,000
That's it's got the Oregon trail like wagon on it in eight bit.

216
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Yep.

217
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Green.

218
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,000
Yes.

219
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,000
Green on black screen.

220
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,000
And it just says, bear with me.

221
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,000
I'm from the 1900s.

222
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,000
There you go.

223
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,000
So I wish I could remember what models those were.

224
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,000
That was early, early Mac.

225
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,000
Yeah.

226
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,000
You're talking 80.

227
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:27,000
First Mac that was in my, or Apple that was in my house was an Apple II GS.

228
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Okay.

229
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,000
And I don't feel like the ones we had at school were a lot further along than that.

230
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,000
Because that was like when I was in the second grade.

231
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:42,000
Yeah, for me, this would have been 80, 85.

232
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,000
That's earlier than 85.

233
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Yeah.

234
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Because that's when we, yeah, because we moved here in 85 back home in Indiana.

235
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,000
I didn't see this.

236
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Yeah.

237
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,000
It was when we moved here in 85.

238
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,000
Okay.

239
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,000
I'm third grade.

240
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Okay.

241
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Yeah.

242
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Third grade.

243
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:04,000
There was, there was the Macs and you had the big bad computer lab, but all you ever

244
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,000
saw anybody doing was playing video games.

245
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,000
That's right.

246
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,000
And I will tell you, five years later, that's all we were doing there too.

247
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Correct.

248
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Well, we had Where in the World was Carmen Sandiego.

249
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Do you remember that game?

250
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,000
I do remember that game.

251
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Oh my gosh.

252
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,000
That, and I remember Mavis Beacon teaches typing.

253
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Mavis Beacon teaches typing the quick brown fox jumping over that lazy dog.

254
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,000
Yes.

255
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000
No, absolutely.

256
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
These are all like, that's, that's what we started with.

257
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
And it was, and it was Apple.

258
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Yes.

259
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Apple had that first foray into like, Hey, probably education's where we need to start.

260
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Correct.

261
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And that was brilliant.

262
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Oh yeah.

263
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Absolutely.

264
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,000
Oh yeah.

265
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,000
But it had an interesting effect on me.

266
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,000
I don't know if it had this effect on you.

267
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Having that computer at school actually made me want a PC more.

268
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000
Interesting.

269
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:04,520
Because there were freedoms that you had not at school and on PCs that you didn't have

270
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,760
with Apple.

271
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:12,320
I could put that stinking file folder anywhere I wanted.

272
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,320
That's true.

273
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,320
Anywhere you wanted.

274
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,320
Yes.

275
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,640
It did not snap to a grid.

276
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:17,640
Correct.

277
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:26,600
So looking back at this, we had the Macintosh Plus, which was the screen and everything

278
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:27,600
all in one.

279
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:28,600
All in one.

280
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:29,600
With the floppy.

281
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,760
Gone back to that, didn't they?

282
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,920
Yeah, they have gone back to the all in one.

283
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,320
So yeah, this is showing.

284
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:37,320
Like floppy floppy.

285
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,660
Three, is that three and a half?

286
00:11:42,660 --> 00:11:43,920
I thought that was a big one.

287
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,560
I didn't think the three and a half was until later.

288
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:51,800
Well, at least the one that's in this picture is showing it with a three and a half inch.

289
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:52,800
How about that?

290
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:53,800
Yep.

291
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:54,800
Yeah.

292
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,520
That's three and a half inch hard disk.

293
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,320
With the single button mouse.

294
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:01,320
Single button mouse folks.

295
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,680
And the big clickety clack keyboard.

296
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:08,600
PC came out with that right click and I was like, what is going on?

297
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:13,440
They just, I mean, they're just going to have all kinds of buttons on these things after

298
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,440
a while.

299
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,160
And they have now.

300
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,160
And they have now.

301
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,800
And of course they both stole it from Xerox.

302
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,800
Yeah.

303
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:20,800
Way to go Xerox.

304
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,320
Yeah, I'm afraid Xerox kind of got screwed.

305
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,320
Yeah.

306
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,520
They had some great stuff, but just didn't know what to do with it.

307
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:28,520
Poor guys.

308
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:29,520
Stolen.

309
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:34,680
Shouldn't have showed your product off.

310
00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:39,160
Well, but you know, should they though?

311
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,760
We're so grateful that they did.

312
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:41,760
Yeah.

313
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:49,240
They're just not quite as cutthroat as it turned out it was going to be.

314
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,240
Which I can appreciate.

315
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,680
You get out there and you have some good ideas and then you realize, oh, these other people

316
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:56,240
are like playing for keeps.

317
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,400
I didn't realize this was going to be proprietary.

318
00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:59,400
Yeah.

319
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:04,800
Well, even then, I mean, I don't think anybody could have envisioned the home PC market.

320
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:05,800
Yeah.

321
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:11,920
Cause I mean, you're talking that was still back 70s when they raised Xerox and saw the

322
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,920
mouse.

323
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:13,920
And I was like, oh, that's interesting.

324
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,240
I was like, why would, what would we do with that?

325
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,080
We don't even have a GUI yet.

326
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,080
It was all still command line.

327
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,080
You said GUI.

328
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,080
I did say GUI.

329
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,480
So GUI, graphic user interface.

330
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,480
Yes.

331
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,240
So those don't remember the difference.

332
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:36,840
There was, there was a, like now if you open up your computer and you look at like, I'm

333
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:37,840
going to say terminal.

334
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:38,840
Terminal.

335
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,640
There you go.

336
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,680
You can, you can look at, you can look at a terminal.

337
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:50,520
You can actually like Seth Stone, one of our friends can just do everything you do with

338
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,440
the mouse in the terminal, in the terminal.

339
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:54,440
Yes.

340
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,400
He's, he's way smarter than me.

341
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,400
Yes.

342
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:06,160
But that's actually like, that's, that's speaking more of the language of what the computer

343
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:11,360
is actually speaking in that command line than what we're used to.

344
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:17,280
What you see on your device, in your screen all of the time now, all of the time is a

345
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:18,280
GUI.

346
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,280
Yep.

347
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,520
It's a graphic user, user interface.

348
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,240
It makes sense to your eyes what's going on inside the computer.

349
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,240
Yep.

350
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,200
Back in my day.

351
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,520
Back in Chris's day.

352
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,000
All command line.

353
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
MS-DOS.

354
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Yeah.

355
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,880
I don't, I don't, I'm not sorry that that evolved to be honest with you.

356
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,840
I miss it.

357
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:46,320
But we started to see, I guess in this GUI, started to see some of the differences that

358
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:52,280
would pop up between Apple and PC.

359
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:53,280
Yep.

360
00:14:53,280 --> 00:15:02,440
We're, I already referenced one that like SnapGrid that showed up on Apple.

361
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:08,000
I feel like you started to see even then the beginnings of this, like we, in order to make

362
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,520
this not break, we need more control.

363
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:12,760
More control, yes.

364
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:18,680
And so Apple started taking the line of, do it our way.

365
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,240
We're going to, we're going to, we're going to give you as, as my friend Chad says, we're

366
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,400
going to give you what you want.

367
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,640
You just don't know it yet.

368
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:26,640
Yes.

369
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,360
I just, you don't know, you don't know what you want.

370
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:30,800
Let me tell you what you want.

371
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Yep.

372
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,800
And there've been so many times that it's been like, holy crap, that was exactly what

373
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:35,800
I wanted.

374
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,320
And then there's so many times I'm like, why did you change that?

375
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,320
Yeah.

376
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,160
That was, that was not an improvement.

377
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:43,160
We want our ports back.

378
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,160
Yeah.

379
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,800
If it doesn't have ports, you can't call it a pro.

380
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,300
And you know what?

381
00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:49,560
We got our ports back.

382
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,560
You did.

383
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:51,560
Yeah.

384
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:52,560
I'm just saying that's important.

385
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:53,560
You did.

386
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,640
Power to the people.

387
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,160
But PCs started having more freedom.

388
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,160
Yeah.

389
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,760
They definitely left it more open to expression.

390
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:05,760
Yeah.

391
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:06,760
Expression, your interpretation.

392
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,320
How did, how did you want to use the device versus we're going to show you how to use

393
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,320
it?

394
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,320
Right.

395
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:22,040
PC became more early on the language of business versus at home.

396
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,600
They got really heavily entrenched in business.

397
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,400
Again, they just took a completely different approach than Apple.

398
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,960
Apple's like, we're going to catch you in school.

399
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:31,960
Microsoft said, that's fine.

400
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:32,960
We'll take the businesses.

401
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:41,240
And so you just had such a proliferation of Microsoft, not just at the OS, but, you know,

402
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,760
the, uh, emergence of Microsoft office, office, baby.

403
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,960
Was it necessarily the best office package out there?

404
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,120
But they competed and they drove everybody else slowly out of the market.

405
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,340
Well here's what I think that they did really well.

406
00:16:57,340 --> 00:17:03,020
And this is going to dovetail into what I think Apple has done really well.

407
00:17:03,020 --> 00:17:12,120
So Microsoft, um, did not give you just a word document or word processor doc, a word

408
00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:14,620
processor program, word processor.

409
00:17:14,620 --> 00:17:22,960
They gave you a word processor program and they gave you a data management program data.

410
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,000
I don't know.

411
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,000
Field.

412
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,000
Talking about spreadsheets.

413
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Yeah.

414
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:29,000
Or yeah.

415
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,000
Excel.

416
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Yep.

417
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,000
I was like, not spreadsheets.

418
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Let's Google.

419
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,000
Yeah.

420
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:39,640
Um, but they gave you a word, they gave you Excel, they gave you PowerPoint, which can

421
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:45,960
you remember like the insanity that was PowerPoint whenever that first came out, we had that

422
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:52,120
we, we immediately started making like that was a, that was part of school.

423
00:17:52,120 --> 00:17:55,800
What you had to be doing was PowerPoint.

424
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,800
Yeah.

425
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:57,800
Presentations.

426
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:03,240
I mean, in high school we had a dedicated class at all you learned was Microsoft office.

427
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:04,240
Yeah.

428
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:05,240
That was it.

429
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,240
Yeah.

430
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:07,240
There's nothing else to the class.

431
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,360
You're just going to learn how to use office.

432
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:10,360
Yeah.

433
00:18:10,360 --> 00:18:13,160
I think it was, um, I guess I was in high school.

434
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,520
I feel like it, like we started to do some of it in middle school, but the, the like

435
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:24,460
you need to know, like you need to be proficient in order to be a college student, you need

436
00:18:24,460 --> 00:18:28,040
to be proficient in word and Excel.

437
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,040
Yes.

438
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,040
And probably PowerPoint.

439
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,040
Yep.

440
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:36,360
And I remember thinking like these like programs that are not this, like they're, they, they

441
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:41,040
serve different, um, purposes, very different purposes.

442
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,000
They are very different, but they work together so well.

443
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,040
Yes.

444
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,320
And I feel like that's what, uh, they did so well.

445
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:54,200
There was that they, they were like, Hey, there are all these different aspects of work

446
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,080
or life.

447
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,920
And what you really want is a unification of those things.

448
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:04,680
You want to, you want to be able to look up at the file menu or whatever and, and know

449
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,200
what to expect there.

450
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,200
Yep.

451
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:13,600
Which I would say like, honestly, they did a fantastic job of making that so predictable.

452
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:14,600
Yep.

453
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:15,600
They did.

454
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:28,680
And I think, I think that that is underrated in terms of not only a lot of our intuition

455
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:36,000
now with computer programs, um, but also what, what it then brought to like their products

456
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,000
in general.

457
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,000
Yep.

458
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,000
Yeah.

459
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:44,760
Looking at this, the first official release of office was October of 1990.

460
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:55,040
So, so, so when I took that class in high school, it was a required class.

461
00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:04,800
And so looking at this timeframe, we would have been using like word version six.

462
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:13,440
And I think now they're technically up to 14 or 16 or whatever the

463
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:14,920
It's 365.

464
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:15,920
I'm sorry.

465
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:16,920
Sorry.

466
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:17,920
All right.

467
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,320
Yes, it was oh, three 65.

468
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:21,800
Now it's in three 65.

469
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,160
Oh, in three years, we'll call it something else.

470
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,160
Sure.

471
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,160
Why not?

472
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,080
They're going the opposite direction though.

473
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:34,360
They shouldn't be in and then in and then, oh, it's fine.

474
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:39,600
So I guess looking at this, technically the last version of offices, they're calling it

475
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,240
was version 16.

476
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,520
Okay.

477
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,240
Don't you go over 365.

478
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,400
It's looks like it's a whole nother whole nother animal.

479
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:55,040
Okay, but here's where I think Apple has kind of run away with it.

480
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,040
Okay.

481
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,400
And I'm just going to say this.

482
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:05,120
And I understand what it does to your insides when I say this.

483
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:10,520
I do I get it.

484
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:17,920
I guess partially because of their control, like their obsessive compulsive control thing

485
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:29,480
that they have, they have made it possible for their I mean, it's called the ecosystem

486
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:36,180
for a reason for their ecosystem to be so far reaching.

487
00:21:36,180 --> 00:21:39,080
I'll talk about the problem with that in a second.

488
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:40,080
Okay.

489
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:54,320
But the fact that I have seamless and by seamless, I mean, almost not like I don't have to set

490
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,160
it up.

491
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:11,600
Seas integration through a computer, a phone, a watch and a tablet and my TV. Now, I have

492
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:19,080
the ability to read messages, like text messages and respond read and respond to text messages,

493
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:30,520
I can read and respond to emails. Maybe not so much on the TV with the emails. I can I

494
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:37,400
can my like browser history is across all these devices. If I'm like, I can't remember

495
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,080
what was I looking at the other day that I Oh, no, it's just right there. It shows all

496
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,640
of that.

497
00:22:45,640 --> 00:23:02,120
I can now use apps from like a mobile operating system on a computer operating system. Yeah.

498
00:23:02,120 --> 00:23:12,040
There's so much like so much integration within itself that their ecosystem makes it hard

499
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:13,040
to leave.

500
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,240
Sure, that's by design.

501
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,240
Once you've gotten in. Yes. And I don't I don't just mean hard to leave because you

502
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:25,560
might miss some messages. I mean hard to leave because it's so nice to just not have to worry

503
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:33,000
about it. Sure. In so many ways. And I'm not saying that other places don't do this to

504
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:39,440
some extent or have some of these features, or even had some of these features first.

505
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:40,520
Correct.

506
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:46,880
But it's not the same level. In my opinion.

507
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:52,480
Yes. So trigger warning, but he just described is what I call the mindless drone effect.

508
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:58,000
Okay, okay. Okay. Okay. Just I'm not hurt. I'm not hurt. Just come right on along. Don't

509
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:05,280
look over there. Just put blinders on. Okay, it's fine. It's fine. This will be fine. I'm

510
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:13,600
following the end front of me. Yes. That was your saying? Yes. Lennings baby Lennings. So

511
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:20,240
I guess I still kind of maybe I've still got something stuck in my crawl. Yeah. Microsoft

512
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:27,440
tried to go that way. Did they and they got destroyed in the 90s. Okay, tell me about

513
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:33,360
that. Oh, you can't you can't make people use your your browser. What do you mean it

514
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:40,160
can't come pre installed with some other browser? Why do we have to use your stuff to get other

515
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:45,680
stuff? Really? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's that's why they got beat the heck and back to try

516
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:50,240
to put it politely for trying to go their own way and all the business for like, Whoa,

517
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:56,760
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. They like start if they want to strip out legacy. It's a nightmare.

518
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:01,000
Because business like we still use that you can't remove that. You're going to cripple

519
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,840
our business. And it's like, Yeah, you you should have updated by now sucker. Let's let's

520
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:16,600
move on. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, they got totally roasted for that. And in the end, they ultimately

521
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:21,400
didn't have a court case, it kind of got settled. Because the government and everybody had to

522
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:27,640
admit that they really didn't have much of a case. They don't have a case. No, they didn't.

523
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:32,200
That that wasn't the perception. Yeah, it's Court of Opinion. Court of Opinion. They got

524
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:37,120
Yes, they got destroyed. Yes. And if even to some degree now, if they still try to do

525
00:25:37,120 --> 00:25:44,480
that, there's a lot of screaming and him and and howling going on. And it's like, guys,

526
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:53,000
this legacy codes got to go. You got you got to you got to let you got to let it be. So,

527
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,520
I mean, there's good and bad to being in an ecosystem. Yes, I'm stuck in some of that

528
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:06,480
with Android. Yes, I can't. I cannot deny that. I am thankful that some things do translate

529
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:15,960
into other operating systems in terms of applications. Huge fan of what is it movies anywhere? That

530
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:24,240
lets my library. Yeah, that's your library from one such a great thing. Yeah, that I

531
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:29,640
leave here and I go to some other platform that supports it just comes right on over.

532
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:37,560
And that nice. It's amazing how that how that works. Do I think I could leave Android? I

533
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:47,280
do. I would give anything for this to just be a basic flip phone with a hotspot, bro.

534
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:53,400
And then I would just have my computer with it. I am I'd be done. I am there as long as

535
00:26:53,400 --> 00:27:00,520
I get to keep the blue bubbles. That's not the way it works in Apple land. No, it's not.

536
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:07,560
I give everybody the green dot. Yes, you do every time, every time, which is, you know,

537
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:15,960
less of a thing. And it's so funny that they turn that up on on its head for Apple. We

538
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,300
I got the you were we were talking about this the other day. So there's a funny thing that

539
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:25,000
happens and I think no matter which side of this you're on, you know that this is the

540
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:32,360
case. So there's a green dots or the green bubbles on an Apple device whenever an Android

541
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:42,400
device is or non Apple device when a non Apple device is in a chat with your a message, a

542
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,880
text message with you. They're green bubbles instead of blue bubbles. Yes. And it used

543
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:55,720
to be that when you would respond to a blue or a green bubble with like an emoji emoji

544
00:27:55,720 --> 00:28:02,880
or something like that, it would like, you know, reply to that message, it would look

545
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:14,880
fine on an Apple device. And on an Android device, you would see the or no, it was when

546
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:20,280
an Android device responded to an Apple message, you would see the Apple device would see the

547
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:27,480
like regular response and an Android device would see the like explanation of the response.

548
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:33,080
Is that right? Yeah, you I would I would get the I can't remember emphasize emphasize.

549
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:39,080
It's like, oh, it's like, oh, my gosh, it's not social media, but it is social media.

550
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:47,360
Stop it. And now it's the other way around. I'm just saying it's a power move. Don't

551
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,120
don't don't like my text message. Don't like your text message. Okay, don't give me. I

552
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,080
do need to remember that because sometimes I do that instead of giving a thumbs up for

553
00:28:56,080 --> 00:29:03,040
like I got it. Yeah, I think you did that earlier. I'm sure I did. Because that sounds

554
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,280
like me very much to me. There you gave just the normal thumbs up, which I'm okay with.

555
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,560
It's its own. It's its own thing. But I thought on one of these, maybe it was somebody else

556
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:17,360
that I like that somebody it was like the little thumbs up type like on on the message

557
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:22,720
on the message itself. And it's like, oh, come on, man. Yeah, no, I've done that before

558
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:31,160
for sure. I really like doing it to Paul because sending emojis to Paul is just kind of funny.

559
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:39,560
Our friend Paul is he's a year younger than me. And he's he's already an old man in so

560
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:46,040
many ways. Like if you want to really treat Paul to some sort of candy, he wants black

561
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:53,520
licorice or where there's originals. He's like 80 years old already. Okay. Really against

562
00:29:53,520 --> 00:30:01,120
anything that tastes good except for steak. So anyway, so I'm going to throw my boss

563
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:07,320
under the bus here. Oh, here goes. He was the last one that I see that did it, who responded

564
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:16,500
to a text message with the emphasize thumbs up to the message itself. Yeah. Not an emoji

565
00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:26,040
return thumbs up. I'm just saying it's Apple's fault. It's Apple's fault. But they do want

566
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:35,520
it to be social media. They want it to to feel like you're social media is the devil

567
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:45,360
socializing. I'll be Bobby Boucher's mom. It's the devil devil. Devil woman. But how

568
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:51,760
do you like Okay, here's here's the thing. Like I have never been able to like someone

569
00:30:51,760 --> 00:31:07,400
who really likes PCs. Someone who really likes the operating system of windows. Guilty. I

570
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:19,640
have never been able to convince anyone who likes the other that they should like this

571
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:25,880
one better. I don't know what that is. It's it's almost like it's not a personality type

572
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:33,080
thing. I don't think it's it's more of like a comfort level is what it feels like to me.

573
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:41,040
Yeah, I think it comes down to what is intuitive to the individual. You know, I can use a Mac.

574
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:47,320
I have to for work because I've got to support them. But if I had to work every day on a

575
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:54,840
Mac, I would pull my hair out. Just because I intuitive to you. It's not comfortable to

576
00:31:54,840 --> 00:32:02,520
me. No. And some of that is I've just known windows since I was a kid. And the Mac is

577
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:09,600
fine. It's got some pretty stuff. You know, but it's pretty. Yes. But it's just it's not

578
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:18,440
home for me. Well, and a PC was home for me for so long. I feel like I went all the way

579
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:26,760
through college from from I don't know, I feel like it was high school and college.

580
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:31,080
But that was the huge majority of when I was actually doing anything functional on a computer.

581
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:37,400
Sure. Other than playing video games, video games, or can't do well on a Mac. But you

582
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:44,120
know, back in the day, Oregon Trail worked just fine. Yes, it did. There was a flight

583
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:51,280
simulator that I feel like worked fine too. Anyway, at some point. No, that's what it

584
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:56,640
was. My friend had a flight simulator and it worked on his PC at home. And I was like,

585
00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:06,080
wow, that's nice. I can play putt putt on my Apple computer. Anyway, so but I would

586
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:13,840
say like I was until after college was still knew how to use a Mac was kind of keeping

587
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,360
up with some of the changes that were happening because there were so many changes that were

588
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:27,560
happening. Yeah, they're in the late 90s and early 2000s. graduated from college in 2005

589
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:42,520
to 2008, which is also the year that I got married. The iPhone becomes a big deal. Yeah.

590
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:53,800
And I remember like this change in in that. Like, oh, this is a thing. Like, my Blackberry

591
00:33:53,800 --> 00:34:00,360
was cool. And now it's not cool. Best physical keyboard ever. Best physical keyboard ever.

592
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:04,800
And the pearl that had that little of the little ball ball. Yeah, that was amazing.

593
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:14,080
Yes. But it was hard to compete with just using your finger. Yeah, they tried with the

594
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:22,360
storm. I think was there the storm. I think it was storm. That seems right.

595
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:32,760
Anyway, it kind of turned everything on its head. That's when I also switched to Mac.

596
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:37,200
And I've been using Mac ever since. Part of the reason I wanted to have this conversation,

597
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:44,520
though, is that I'm using a PC at work. I see what you're looking at over here because

598
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:49,840
I have this Mac still on this table. Yeah, this is the last week for me using this Mac

599
00:34:49,840 --> 00:35:01,800
is like a backup. OK. So I have a PC at work that I am mostly working off of now. The Lenovo?

600
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:11,200
Yeah. OK. Yeah. It's an X1. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm trying to get used to it. Right. There

601
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:16,360
are things that I realize like, oh, that's not as easy as it used to be, because I also

602
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:27,160
have a lot of Macs in my work area. Sure. Because all of the AV computers that we have

603
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:34,720
are currently Macs, except for one computer that's technically running our live stream.

604
00:35:34,720 --> 00:35:43,260
But I don't ever see the operating system for it because it's just that ubiquitous rack

605
00:35:43,260 --> 00:35:52,320
mounted PC. Yeah. And all it does is run the studio that live streams for us. It's pretty

606
00:35:52,320 --> 00:36:01,240
cool how they have that functions. Resi. Yeah. If you don't know, look that one up. But I

607
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:10,000
find myself being a little bit confused sometimes because my old PC mind does not recognize

608
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:17,200
a lot of the operating system anymore. A lot has changed since 95. A lot has changed since

609
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:25,840
95. They tried to make it look pretty. I don't know if they achieved that, but like there's

610
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,320
some of it that I'm like, oh, wow, that I mean, you just have to press there. And that

611
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:36,080
makes sense. It's more in the center. Like, OK, that's that feels a little bit Apple to

612
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:40,320
put the things in the center as opposed to putting it on the left side bottom row. If

613
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:46,320
you look at mine, whoops, I moved it to the left. See, I didn't even know you could do

614
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,840
that. I don't leave it in the center. I can't do that. Yeah. I didn't even know you could

615
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:55,040
do that. So like there's some things that I got to figure out. But I'm back to using

616
00:36:55,040 --> 00:37:03,160
all. Well, there's still some like our work stuff moved to Google. So I'm trying to figure

617
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:14,040
that out. But anyway, the Microsoft suite, like the office suite is as easy to navigate

618
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:22,640
as it has always been. Absolutely. So appreciate that. Anyway, there's just like there's a

619
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:30,080
lot. And now I'm now I'm like between worlds as opposed to being. Firmly in one. Correct.

620
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:40,400
And again, what it came down to is a lot of the devices that I need to support. Are either

621
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:48,960
better supported from a PC. Or only supported from PC. Yep. And that's kind of the way that

622
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:53,880
some of this is gone. And that's I guess it's more in the AV world for you. Yeah, it's driving

623
00:37:53,880 --> 00:38:03,820
you that direction. Yeah. Okay. Anyway, well, as you say that, I'm thinking about Jason.

624
00:38:03,820 --> 00:38:12,360
He purposely runs a Windows virtual machine on his Mac to use those PC specific applications

625
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:17,500
for what he does. Yeah, that's definitely a way to do it. He just hasn't been willing

626
00:38:17,500 --> 00:38:27,680
to go full PC yet. Well, I'm doing it for him. You're gonna see. Come on. I'm gonna

627
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:32,800
get a dirty message. Hey, it's in a booth. That's all that matters. As long as it's in

628
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:39,780
a booth, man, just keep sending those booths. Jason, really appreciate you, man. Anyway,

629
00:38:39,780 --> 00:38:44,640
it's a lot. And it's also like there's there's definitely days that I'm like, oh, I wonder

630
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:52,840
why nobody has texted me. And I realize, oh, I don't have that pop up on my computer anymore.

631
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,480
That's telling me I have a text message. Correct. So you've had to revert back to looking at

632
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:02,160
your phone, revert back to looking at my phone. I've got a charger now on the right beside

633
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:07,080
my where my computer says, okay, so that's better anyway, because then it's sitting there

634
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,920
on the charger as opposed to in my pocket. Well, as long as this doesn't get you in trouble

635
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:18,640
with your wife, I think you're okay. No, she doesn't. Because she may have been used to

636
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:27,420
your responsiveness before. I will tell you, my wife is a teacher. I hear from my wife

637
00:39:27,420 --> 00:39:33,200
way less than she hears from me during the day. Okay, fair enough. I'm like sending her

638
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:40,820
Instagram stuff, like little videos and things like that. Because I don't know if you other

639
00:39:40,820 --> 00:39:44,960
husbands out there know this, but it's really important that your wife knows that you think

640
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:50,760
about her during the day, not when or when she's not there. Yeah, during the day. Yeah,

641
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,680
when she's not around you, it's really important that she knows that you think about her. I

642
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:59,660
will tell you, it does open you up if you have a wife who has a job that's as taxing

643
00:39:59,660 --> 00:40:07,240
as say a fifth grade teacher. It does open you up to feeling a little bit neglected,

644
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:11,560
because they're not going to respond until five o'clock. Sure. Whenever they get off

645
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:20,880
work. It's still important. Yes. So make sure, especially if you have a wife that's is in

646
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:26,640
a position to be able to respond, that you somehow, however you can figure it out, it's

647
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:35,640
better if it's different from person to person, if you somehow figure out how to let her know

648
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:42,880
that she's on your mind. That's a little relationship advice. Yeah. That one was for free. No satoshis

649
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:49,200
needed. Yeah. So I mean, I guess to your point there, you don't have to worry about it as

650
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:56,480
much. I know my wife has adjusted some, because there are some days that I can be very responsive,

651
00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:01,880
and then there's some days that I'm just so in it that I'm not looking at my phone. And

652
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:07,080
then I finally see it, and it's like six or seven messages deep, and it's like, oh hey,

653
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:16,480
how you doing? Love you. Whoops. No, I feel that. For sure I feel that. Yeah. But you

654
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:22,760
know, there's just little things, and it's going to be little things until it's absolutely

655
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:28,560
until it makes complete sense. See, but now you get to get on my soapbox and you go, there's

656
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:35,520
no reason why you can't make this app available for Windows. There's no reason why it can't

657
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:50,080
be made available for an Android. Yeah. It's funny to me though, like how many apps the

658
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:56,800
way that it's made available is through a browser. Yes. I'm like, this sucks. I don't

659
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:04,240
like using a browser for mail. Sorry. It was just weird to me. Yeah. Google, get your crap

660
00:42:04,240 --> 00:42:14,400
together. Like, what's going on there? I don't get that. That doesn't no likey. But I was

661
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:22,840
trying to play music. I have had like all of my music through Apple Music now for so

662
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:29,160
long like it's like all my friends that are on Spotify. I'm like, I don't I don't know

663
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:38,000
what to do with you. You can install the world's worst malware on your PC and install iTunes.

664
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:45,480
Really? I don't recommend it. Let's not do that then. But the way that they have it is

665
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:53,800
through a browser. And I'm like, Oh my gosh, this is disgusting. Yeah. Why? Anyway, I don't

666
00:42:53,800 --> 00:43:01,840
know why they have this perception internally that if we make our killer apps available

667
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:08,080
to another platform, now people are just naturally going to leap to that other platform. Like,

668
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:13,700
I don't see it that way at all. You bring your apps to another platform, you're now

669
00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:19,640
just growing the people using your application. I mean, there's a lot of people who would

670
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:29,880
love to have iMessage and FaceTime on an Android. Yeah, but then they have a crappy camera.

671
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:37,000
Hey, don't get me started. Don't get me started. Pixels have a pretty sweet camera. Pixels

672
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:42,000
have a fantastic camera. Yes, they do. Marques Brownlee has a side by side that he or he

673
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:49,000
always does like the end of the year, I guess, or something like that. He does a camera,

674
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:59,480
like bracket. Yeah. Right. And I mean, pixel is very commonly the top one. Yes, they've

675
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:10,320
come a long way. The cameras on my not Microsoft on Google phones for a while were pretty subpar.

676
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,840
But since going into pixel, they've really kicked up what they're doing. Well, and what's

677
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,400
interesting to me is it seems like because he does like he'll show you the whole thing,

678
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:23,320
like he does a side by side people vote. And like there's a bracket and you're a and being

679
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:32,040
all of these different same picture, but taken from two different phones. And you're a and

680
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:37,280
being all these different things. It's funny to me how many times it's just the brighter

681
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:43,800
picture that wins. And, and I'm not like there, there are people that are trying to like figure

682
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:49,920
out contrast and stuff like that. And they're there, whatever pixel peeping you can actually

683
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:55,160
do in something like that. But they're they're looking at the that and now they're they're

684
00:44:55,160 --> 00:45:02,440
judging how well the AI responds and different things. All of that is a is is a thing but

685
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:08,320
it is very much like a hey, we took these two pictures side by side, like at the same

686
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:15,840
time, same person or, you know, subject the same like they do all of that the same. And

687
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,760
they are just saying which one's better left or right. They're not giving you anything

688
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:29,560
other than that. And it's so funny, like, the pixel is legitimately a really good camera

689
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:38,560
taking device that it is. And now it all comes with AI. Hmm. Which is just a totally different

690
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:51,360
like what are we even doing anymore? No telling. I love the I love the AI like, you know, pictures

691
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:56,840
of like, Trump and Biden cooking Thanksgiving together and things like that. It's just like

692
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:05,440
it's good for funny pictures. There you go. I mean, it happened. And it's good for obviously

693
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:16,260
it's on the internet. Morphed up, messed up hands. Oh, yeah. Chris used an AI picture.

694
00:46:16,260 --> 00:46:25,440
He was he was looking for pictures of Jesus taking selfies. And he used those for Sunday,

695
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:36,560
which was hilarious. Evidently, there are some that are not like, not necessarily respectful.

696
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:43,000
But they're the one of the ones that he used had the whole like, common problem with with

697
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:47,720
AI photos is if there's a table in it, and then that table like gets blocked by a person,

698
00:46:47,720 --> 00:46:54,640
the other end of the table will be like bigger than the first end of the table. Yeah, like,

699
00:46:54,640 --> 00:47:02,840
or the person will have a head and no body like, or the horse has five legs. Yeah. Anyway,

700
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:15,320
it's funny. Like I just think it's fantastic. But that's the world we live in now. Yeah.

701
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:20,280
So you know, we didn't really come up with a winner here. But

702
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:26,680
Well, that's a tough debate. I don't it's not in my mind. It's not even a debate. Like

703
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:38,360
it's it's a there are obviously two very, like, popular options. Correct. Sorry, Linux,

704
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:46,760
you're useful for some things. But good for a server. Yeah, the majority of the time,

705
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:56,880
I think, this like huge revenue stream that is personal computers. Yeah. Yeah, I don't

706
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:04,400
know that Linux is ever going to make the leap. I've been hearing it forever. Kind of

707
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:11,320
like I've been hearing about IPv6 forever. It's becoming generational, man, IPv6. That

708
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:18,400
is going to be the wave of the future. Three, we're going to have no choice. We've got to

709
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:24,320
have we've truly officially ran out of IPv4. Yeah, there's no there's supposedly, which

710
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:31,560
is probably why our internet so shoddy right now, because somebody's using our IP address.

711
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:38,480
So yeah, it's, it's tough. I mean, you can get, you know, a bunch of people in the room

712
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:44,760
and put both in front of them. And it's sometimes hard to know who's going to pick which. Yeah.

713
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:52,240
I mean, the creative types are naturally going to go Mac, it appears to me still. And that's

714
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:59,760
definitely who they try to cater to. Yes. And then you're more geeky type, if they can't

715
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:05,800
get a Linux box, they're going to take Windows, because you can install a full Linux kernel

716
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:14,360
and run it in Windows. That's true. So you get you get a bonus computer. Why not? Why

717
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,400
would we make you not be able to do that? And it's so seamlessly integrated into Windows.

718
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:26,320
I mean, it's amazing. But then you got guys like Chad. And I'm like, what? Well, you are

719
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:35,320
like firmly in the Mac camp. He drank the Kool-Aid. He is pretty nerdy. I mean, he drank

720
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:41,760
the Kool-Aid. Really good friend. Love that guy. He's a nerd. Him and Cody both drank

721
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:51,040
the Kool-Aid. Yeah. Oh, for sure they did. Drink the Kool-Aid, no going back. So anyway,

722
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:55,560
if Chad or Cody are listening, they're probably yelling at me for using the PC at work. I'm

723
00:49:55,560 --> 00:50:01,560
sorry. You finally come around. That's what's necessary right now for my journey. He found

724
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:06,440
out the cookies weren't so good on the Mac side. I don't know. Those cookies are pretty

725
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:11,760
delicious. Anyway, so well, before we sounds like we're wrapping. Yeah, we're wrapping

726
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:17,280
up. We've got a boost. We got a boost. Is it Jason? It is. Of course it's Jason. It is.

727
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:25,120
I love you, Jason. Yes. And there's numerology to go with it. Okay. What's the numerology?

728
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:37,520
Can you figure it out? 5424. So 5424. The life world and everything is in the middle

729
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:45,040
of it. I don't know. No, that's 44. That's yeah. 42. Yes. Life, the universe and everything.

730
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:56,880
5424. 5424. 5424. I don't know. May the 4th, 2024. Hey, may the 4th be with you. Yes. His

731
00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:05,800
message is may the 4th be with you. Couldn't resist. Couldn't resist. So way to go, Chris.

732
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:12,440
There it is. So anybody else out there listening, you can send the boost too. Especially if

733
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:18,720
you're from Australia. Yeah, I need a download. Come on, guys. Just one. Just one. Like I've

734
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:24,880
said before, you don't even have to listen. I just need the download. Give me the download.

735
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:31,040
I complete the set. It's all, I'm good. I don't care if you listen. I just want the

736
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:37,120
download. Don't make me have to use a VPN and fake it. Because we can do that. Yeah,

737
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:41,280
we can totally do that. Because I'm not, I'm not going to get into Antarctica. I'm okay

738
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:46,280
with that. That's fine. But I want Australia. But Australia would be really nice. Yes. It's

739
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:52,640
the one continent we haven't hit. Man. Other than Antarctica. Yeah. We're not going to

740
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,000
get. Yeah, no, you're not going to get that. Those penguins, they have a hard time with.

741
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:01,920
Yeah, they don't like podcasts. Clicking on the button. So. But I did see a study the

742
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:06,200
other day that said people who listen to podcasts are more intelligent than those who don't.

743
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,800
Well it would definitely be the, that would be the case with penguins. If there's a penguin

744
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:14,800
listening to a podcast, I guarantee he's more intelligent than the other penguins. Yes,

745
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:22,960
yes he is. Yes he is. So. Well, I don't know if we've swayed anybody. Oh gosh. One way

746
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:28,680
or the other. We technically pulled in some Android into that. But. I mean, of course,

747
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:33,520
because it's necessary to talk about now that everything is related. Yeah. Well, I still

748
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:41,520
say PC for the win. I know you do. It's still the language of business. It's still the language

749
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:51,240
of business. Yeah. I just had to get a license of M365 in order to run mobile apps on an

750
00:52:51,240 --> 00:53:00,520
iPad. Really? Yeah. For work. Oh yeah. Yeah. So. Sorry, I was looking for a.

751
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:12,560
Meme that I saw the other day that said that some language, the word for penguin is business

752
00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:21,560
goose. Business goose, okay. If you just translate it directly. Anyway, business goose. For those

753
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:28,280
of you that are. Oh yeah. The world is a vast hellscape right now. But remember the Mandarin

754
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:37,600
word for penguin literally translates to business goose. Just trying to let you know. Penguin's

755
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,880
business geese. Business geese. All right. Keep that in mind. Appreciate you brother.

756
00:53:41,880 --> 00:54:09,600
Thanks for buying me a beer. Yep. Enjoyed it. See you everybody. See you. Hey everybody.

757
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:13,680
Hearing gear is a value for value podcast. If you made it this far, then I would like
