Lance and Meke get real techy in this episode of PNC. We covered Microsoft’s lease-to-own deal, the ubiquitousness of Netflix, Deepfakes on the internets, airport security using facial recognition tech and CCTV, and Elon Musk being (understandably?) fed up.
It’s episode 100 of the Pondering Nerdcast. We thank you all for sticking with us for all these years. On this episode we talk about cross platform play and why sony is silent about it, Twitter purchase of Smyte in an effort to fight abuse on it’s platform, and who to deal with your problematic musical favs. All this and more on the 100th episode of the Pondering Nerdcast.
