567: That's Not How Capitalism Works

In this April 1st edition of the show, Philip Michaels returns to steal the show from Dan and Mikah (and Jason!) and force them to compete for points for their punditry.

Our latest personal tech projects, twenty-five years of macOS, our networking setups, and where we turn for up-to-date information.

How far off we are from full self-driving cars, the software systems we wish would never update, the app launchers we use on our Macs, and the ATProtocol moment.

Who Apple's new MacBook Neo is for, what will ruin our USB-C utopia, the value of LEGO's new Smart Bricks, and our feelings on loot boxes.

Checking in with "The Sims," whether hardware colors sway our buying choices, Apple's new pricing strategy with the iPhone 17e and MacBook Neo, and whether the Studio Display XDR is a bad deal.

The imminent Apple products we're most interested in, our weather tech suggestions, how we remember things, and our cities' transit payment options.

Whether we'd wear an Apple AI pendant, the vintage tech bringing us joy, how we feel about AI-generated playlists, and whether to buy an M4 Mac mini before the Apple event.

Our best automations on macOS or iOS, our expense tracking tools, online age verification, and the fitness devices we've used recently.

Our cozy gaming habits, list view vs. column view throwdown, whether AI coding integeration makes us want to build apps, and the rumored Apple products that we'll instabuy.

Will we use Apple's new Creator Suite, smart home tips for a new homeowner, the utility of Apple's Continuity Camera feature, and the last time a smartphone release impressed us.
