Will Bungie Bounce Back? - DTNS 4637 Extended

Sony-owned Bungie laid off around 100 people. What does it mean for the Destiny game and what does it say about the health of the industry? And YouTube has launched its ad-blocker prevention efforts worldwide. Plus which types of searches generated the most ad revenue for Google?

It's So Y2K - GDI 4637 starts at 32:14

Why not Zoidberg? LinkedIn passes 1 billion members and adds A.I. tools to help you find a new job. How will employees that have access to a job finding A.I. work? Do you care what the spoon looks like? Jobs talk takes over. Do your kids care about your stuff? Have you bought any Y2K clothes? Sarah doesn't know how to be a child. Who has the baton? What throwback is fun for you? How long would you sit for a painting? So many thoughts on high school pictures.

Starring Tom Merritt. Sarah Lane, Scott Johnson, Roger Chang, Joe.

Will Bungie Bounce Back? - DTNS 4637 Extended

Yep! If it’s not worth the money don’t pay for it. I’m in complete agreement

Daily Tech News Show

The YouTube ad blocker story could not have been better timed. I just got an email from Google this morning letting me know my Youtube Premium Family Plan is going from AU$17.99 to AU$32.99. This really has made me reflect on how much I value the ad free experience, not just for me, but for my Teenage kids as well. I have decided to keep it for now as I think it's worth the money, but I have been talking to some friends who are cancelling as the "juice isn't worth the squeeze".
