525: I’m On a Boat!

Oh, Facebook; the things we knew we now know we know and they knew too; AI reckoning; long dark 6 hours of Facebook's soul; Trump sues to get back on Twitter; lip service to climate change from Big Tech; raining drones; the Problem with the Problem with Jon Stewart; Foundation; Ted Lasso; Billions; the Many Saints of Newark; Amazon's terrible new robot; Grammarly; KeyCastr; Disney stories; AirTag Zero-Day; high tech sticker QR attacks; Coinbase; ransomware; DeFi asks nicely, but will punch you; a wealth of show titles too vulgar to use.
