Apple Joins the RCS Party - DTNS 4647 Extended (Patreon)

Will Smith joins us with a geek gift buyer’s guide for the upcoming holiday season. Plus the first Qi v2.0 devices are nearly through the certification process. We explain what this means and how you’ll benefit! And Apple announces in the future it will adopt the RCS standard. Will this mean the end of the blue vs green messaging schism?

Some Vacuums Suck and Some Vacuums SUCK - GDI 4647 starts at 32:59

Does your blender have gears? Will gives his thoughts on the new Steam Deck OLED. It’s not a Steam Deck 2. Will really, really uses his Steam Deck. How many FPS do you prefer for a handheld? Package delivery talk takes over. What is the longest you waited for a delivery? What is your favorite vacuum cleaner? Do you use a vacuum to kill spiders? How about lizards? Roger has thoughts. Don Johnson really gets around. The Oakland A’s are moving to Las Vegas.

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Will Smith, Roger Chang, Joe.
