Also a new Mac Mini with a brand new M6 chip. Apple Maps finally has ads. Meta had to settle a lawsuit and instill a bunch of restrictions for teenagers. OpenAI released their report on the hugging face breach and a ton more. This episode is brought to you by Framer, Copilot Money, and you, the members who support us directly. I'm one of your hosts, Steven Robles, joined by my friend Jason Ayton. How's it going, Jason? It's it's good. It's good. Do you have that whole thing memorized every time when you do that whole thing? No, you just do it off the cuff, No, no. I do it off the cuff. That's why I have to edit it sometimes 'cause everything. ~ that's right. Okay. I just yeah. I'm literally scrolling our outline and deciding what to say as I'm saying it. In real time. You have a In real time. real time processing unit in your head. You're running a real time operating system just like ~ you you've got an I got the ram I got more RAM than the Mac Studio. That's what it is. The R the R one. R one chip going in your head just I Did we ever get it to R two in the Vision Pro? I don't think the five version has an R2. No, it's the same it's the same archip. We only ever got one. Anyway, what So anyway. do you know what movie the opening quote was from? Shirley. I know it's the Jim Carrey one where he lives in a bubble. What is it the tr Truman show? Yes, yes. That's it. Yes.
It was the Truman it was the Truman show. Is that what it's called? Why are you laughing? Because he l well, Like I said something weird. He lives in a bubble. A, it's not a bubble. I mean it was a sure a dome of a fake city. It's literally a bubble. Metaphorically Yeah, so I guess I guess it's that. and physically, he's living in a bubble. Fair enough, fair enough. Okay. Excellent movie. I feel like very apropos for t ahead of its time we'll say. But I said that bec Yes. It's both the worst and best role Jim Carrey's ever played. It's the least Jim Carrey Jim Carrey Right. role, but also he did an amazing job. Exactly that. And I did the good morning thing because Apple's tagline for the event is surprise and shine, which I think is it's interesting. And we will not be hearing good morning. No, that's the thing too, Tim I'm I have it in the outline. Tim Cook is CEO for like two more days as this episode drops. Because September first, we're gonna turn up. Sorry.
I'm I apologize to everyone. I'm so sorry. Please Please don't unsubscribe and or leave us anything but a five-star review. You can leave a five-star review and tell us how lame that joke was, but Thank you very much. And listen, we are two thank you for that transition. We are two five star reviews away from five hundred. So if you leave us a five star even review and but here I have something specific because Jason and I are gonna argue vehemently in the personal tech segment at the end of this episode. We're gonna argue about what makes an app whimsical. And I I have some strong thoughts. I th we already disagree. You texted me something that ju I couldn't even sleep last night. I just laid awake staring at the ceiling, thinking about how much I'm gonna tear into this opinion.
That you have. We also disagree about the pronunciation of that word. Wait, vehemently? ~ vehemently. That's not how you say it. Yeah, Vehement. thank you.
Okay.
Anyway, emphasis. The first one sounds like somehow you were throwing up a very dry substance.
V V Man Le anyway, leave us two. We need two more files. Lee tell me what app that you use on your Apple devices or your Android devices that you feel ha is a whimsical, has that like spirit of whimsy in it. We're gonna talk about that in personal tech.
