TOPIC: Surface Tension.
This week, Dan and Merlin discuss names of cities in Florida, wireless neckbands, elliptical bikes, chore systems (and parental withholding), iOS battery life, canny Mac laptop battery monitoring, how battery cycles work, Todd, and things you already know (unless you don't already know them).
Two pretty good YouTube channels are recommended.
Your hosts talk about that weird thing where iOS throws up a password pop-up, including some recent bad news on how it might be exploited. Gross.
There's also some exciting news about possible Brand Synergies.
Things wrap with responding to listener questions about smart home location woes and choosing a VPN.
Murrrrrrph!
