Your heart can tell you a lot about your health.

Apple Watch Series 12 measures your heart rate every five seconds with the most accurate heart rate sensing in a wearable.

Dan (0:09)

So your vitals app, now with heart rate variability, can tell you when something is off. And your readiness score can let you know when to rest and when to push.

iPhone 11 or later required. Based on Apple conducted study of heart rate accuracy in August 2026, visit apple.com/applewatchseries12. We're live. Welcome to The WAN Show. I don't remember the other things that Linus says.

He's sad and on a support pillar because he needs a lot of support right now because he's using a, what is it even called now? Chromebook? A Google Book. A Google Book. Changing the name was important.

It almost ended The WAN Show, Luke. It almost ended the streak.

Luke Lafreniere (0:57)

It almost broke the streak.

Getting this thing working has been an absolute donkey fire. I don't know how else to describe it. Yeah. I am so upset.

Anyway, we've got a great show lined up for you guys this week.

Linus Sebastian (1:13)

Actually, a ton happened with of course, the biggest news. Oh man, there's so much biggest news. Okay, I'm gonna go with the biggest news being the quote unquote decompiled adobe programs, multiple, maybe not new, but multiple projects kind of showed up and went viral this week that seem to be recreating the adobe suite using a combination or some form of decompilation and or AI reconstruction. So we tried some of it. We're gonna be talking a little bit about what the heck is going on. Also, in other news this week, oh man, how can I pick the one Luke is most likely to want? I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna go with...

Oh, this is crazy. There's a Community NVIDIA Driver for Mac OS. I don't know if Luke would have picked that, but that blew me away. Apparently NVIDIA GPUs are working on Mac OS again, which is wild. What else we got?

Luke Lafreniere (2:24)

That was the second one I was gonna pick. The first one I was gonna pick is that modders raced to build a digital PS5 before GTA 6 even releases, and they are making insane progress. So we'll check in on that. And also, hey, why not? I need another topic. Trump Mobile got hacked.

Cool. The 17 different people that bought that and the 3,000 reviewers that bought that all had their data leaked, and that sucks.

Linus Sebastian (2:53)

Oh, that's not funny anymore.

Luke Lafreniere (2:55)

Yeah. Get owned.

Linus Sebastian (3:13)

The show is brought to you today by Vessi, Odoo, Ahrefs and MotionGrey alongside our rat partner Dbrand, our laptop partner Dell, and our chair partner Razer. And you know what? I actually wanna shout those guys out a little more than usual today because without my Dbrand, well, whatever, actually Dbrand didn't help, but without my Razer camera, okay? That's the one part of my setup here that did not catastrophically fail me, okay? Without my Razer camera, there would be no WAN Show today. I've got the Kiyo Pro and dude, dude, do I ever miss gotting a Dell right now because I am on a Google Book and it is a miracle that we are doing the WAN Show today at all. If you've been paying attention to the Google Book news, even in the slightest, you will probably know that these things are an absolute dumpster fire.

Things as simple as you click to open a document in the Docs app. Because remember, it's like based on Android now. So you can install Android apps. So a first-party app, you click, you open a Doc, I swear to you, it launches a Chrome browser and then opens it in the Chrome version of Google Docs. Why do I even have the app on it? That's just the beginning. Copy-paste seems to be fundamentally broken. So if I want to copy something out of said Google Doc that is opened in a Chrome browser and paste it into my Microsoft Teams app, which by the way, doesn't seem to support right-clicking in any way. I cannot access a context menu. Wait, no, I can in the text box. I can in the text box. But if I want to do a reaction on things, which seems to be kind of derpy, don't worry about that for now. Though I think I can solve that one. What I can't solve is that if I paste into the Teams app, like Control V, it won't do it.
