OnePlus and Xiaomi’s New Folding Phones

Fri, 11 Aug 2023 08:00:00 -0000

This was a slow week for news, but that doesn't mean we didn't have a lot to talk about. Marques, Andrew, and David kick it off talking about the Apple Vision Pro before pivoting into Google turning on RCS by default on Android.

Then, we end it with a fun new game we're calling "Break the Budget" where the hosts need to pick three tech items without going over a given budget. It's chaotic but a ton of fun! Make sure you stick around to the end for the trivia answers as always. Enjoy!

In this prequel to the 'ICANN and the 7 Keys to the Internet' podcast, David talks Marques and Andrew through the wildly interesting history of the internet. There's plenty of information out there about the beginning of the World Wide Web in 1989, but what was happening before that? How did the internet start? How long did it take to turn on? And why does it always start with Sputnik? David answers all those questions and more while explaining how everything came to be. Special thanks to everyone that took the time to talk with us to make this episode. We hope you enjoy!
