Keyloggers, Hackers, RansomWare, and a Bunch of Weird Tech News

Oh, snap! A Big Hack! Yes, yes, of COURSE we talk in-depth about the huge multi-country, multi-target WannaCry / WannaCrypt / WannaCrypt0r hack. In fact, we even discuss motives, methods, history, and resolution of the hack by way of Mitcz over-explaining boring technical details of the code involved. But, like any good sandwich, the meatContinue reading “Keyloggers, Hackers, RansomWare, and a Bunch of Weird Tech News”

Alex gets very upset about it and rants and raves wildly. We discuss a new software API for artificial voiceover creation – andContinue reading “AI Style Assistants, Robot Voices, Robot Sex Toys, Augmented Reality, and Lab Grown Meat”

Hey look! We’re kinda keeping something of a schedule here! Okay, let’s talk about the episode… We start off with tangents about Amazon’s Alexa, then move into a proposed “pinball for rent” business idea while also discussing tech that only the uber-rich have (and can afford). From there, we discuss why Lyft doesn’t understand April Fools’Continue reading “Hackers, Mandelberg’s Law, Lyft & Uber Morality, Autopilot, and More!”

Elon Musk is a robot. Also, tech updates that aren’t Apple-related!

Since we finally started doing new VT episodes again, we’re doing time-relevant tech updates and speculation again! And almost none of them are Apple-related! We discuss the restaurant industry, Alex’s fascinating theory on McDonalds, Netflix, Snapchat’s weird new hardware device that will usher in the acceptance of a loss of privacy, how shitty Yahoo isContinue reading “Elon Musk is a robot.

From the “Uber for Gas” and “Uber for Tailoring” to Google’s proposed new OS for the Internet of Things, to IKEA’s official Hack system, to Nintendo’s curious VP ofContinue reading “The Uber for Things, The Internet of Things, Teledildonics, VR Porn, and Silk Road”
