Plus we examine the controversy over Wendy’s new dynamically adjusted pricing menu boards. And Swedish fintech firm Klarna says its AI assistant does the work of 700 people after it lays off… 700 people.

Tom went to a Heaven's Gate conference back in the day. Sarah doesn't want to live forever. Roger confirmed a few vampire issues. Threads has triple the downloads of X. The group discusses what this means. How many steps are in the game? Social network talk takes over. Do you drink from a hose? Scott has changed how he uses social media. Do you use the For You option on social media networks? Should we treat information like we do food? What would DTNS be on a restaurant menu?

2024-03-01 15:02:01 +0000 UTCThe video came history discussion was great. Can you all remember the first Video Game creator that you knew and looked for other games they created? I know some of you will say John Carmack or Shigeru Miyamoto. Those of course were big for me. The first creator I remember knowing and actually looking for other games he created was David Crane. Pitfall 🐍 .. Freeway 🐓… Kaboom 💣 just to name a few.
