Cybersecurity headlines might have you worried about the so-called "new" 16 billion credential leak, but don't panic! We break down why this widely-reported security breach isn't actually new at all—we covered it on Tech Time Radio six months ago. Learn why two-factor authentication is your best defense and how this compilation of previously leaked data affects your digital security.

The tech and military worlds are colliding as executives from OpenAI, Meta, and Palantir join the Army Reserve as lieutenant colonels. But there's a twist: these digital leaders are skipping traditional boot camp for "express training." We dive into the controversy and debate whether tech expertise should override traditional military integration processes or if this risks creating officers without proper understanding of military culture.

Gaming gets bizarre with "Date Everything"—a dating sim that lets you romance inanimate objects in your home that garnered a million downloads in just 24 hours. From washing machines to microwave ovens, this game raises fascinating questions about our relationship with technology and objects. We also explore Splitgate 2's unusual feature that gives players a 1-in-100 chance of emitting a fart sound when crouching, which adds a surprising tactical element to gameplay.

Don't miss our Two Truths and a Lie game, Mike's mesmerizing moment on the psychological implications of dating simulators, and our whiskey tasting featuring Old Grandad Bonded Bourbon. Plus, we unveil MidJourney's new video generation capabilities and what they mean for creators.

But now it's time for the latest headlines in the world of technology here are our top technology stories of the week all right.

Nathan Mumm:

No, the 16 billion credential leak is not a new data breach. The news is having a heyday on the 16 billion login credentials that have been compiled into a data set online, giving criminals unprecedented access to the accounts consumers use each day. Now a security company released their findings. I just want to be very clear that these are not new findings and we will express the information on why we are going to be talking about that, but before let's go to Lisa Walker with more on this story, Billions of login credentials have been leaked and compiled into datasets online, giving criminals unprecedented access to accounts consumers use each day, giving criminals unprecedented access to accounts consumers use each day.

Speaker 4:

According to a report published last week, researchers have recently discovered 30 exposed datasets that each contain a vast amount of login information, amounting to a total of 16 billion compromised credentials. That includes user passwords for a range of popular platforms, including Google, Facebook and Apple. $16 billion is roughly double the amount of people on Earth today, signaling that impacted consumers may have had credentials for more than one account leaked Back to the studio.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, so this should not be a surprise for Tech Time listeners. All right, so this should not be a surprise for Tech Time listeners, as we talked about this on episode 233 on December 15th 2024. All right, so that is almost six months ago. We talked about this and we talked about the dark web that is consolidating all the accounts of these hack sites into one global account. You remember that conversation, mike Sure. We've talked about it a couple times actually on our show.

Mike Gorday:

We talk about this stuff so much that I block everything out with liquor.

Nathan Mumm:

Oh, okay, well, we've talked about this and so this should not be any news or surprise to people that listen to Tech Time Radio. But if you don't and you're the mainstream media I guess you're not weeks behind us. Now you're months behind us, and now you're hearing about a security company that went onto the dark web and found that there were 16 billion different contacts that they could search for if they paid for a service on the dark web to get these accounts. Now this has been going into effect for the last two years. All of the cyber criminals have been pulling together all these accounts into a master database, kind of like something like a Wikipedia type of deal, where you would go on in and just search and it would pull up each of your usernames with your passwords that are linked to your accounts and linked to your email addresses. So why is it that a security company now comes out with this and the mainstream media is running? I have no idea, but let me just tell you, as we've talked about, the most important thing to worry about this is understanding that your password that is out there is probably anywhere between six to 10 years old. So if you've changed your password in the last six to 10 years, you're probably in good shape, and the most important thing that we've always talked about is you should adapt and maintain good cybersecurity habits, and this should be having that.

Nathan Mumm:

Your passwords all use two-factor authentication. We talk about this all the time. Those are the six digits that you get from authenticator apps like Microsoft Authenticator, google Authenticator, athi and others that manage your two-factor authentication codes. Some password managers, like Bitwarden and 1Password, also include authentication functionality to use with the application. So everybody's, I hope, familiar with two-factor authentication.

Nathan Mumm:

When you have a login for your main email accounts and your main bank accounts or any account that you have set up, you should set up two-factor authentication, which goes to your phone device and you open the app and it gives you six-digit code that you have to put in to log in right. This is how you are safe. I don't care if anybody has my passwords, because I know if they're going to get into anything important with my passwords. It's going to send a buzz to my phone and then, all of a sudden, it'll do two-factor authentication. Now sometimes this happens, and guess what happens when this is taken care of? It'll send an alert and I will be sleeping at night and all of a sudden I'll get a whole bunch of two-factor authentication requests coming on in, which means that probably my password has been compromised because I'm not doing it early in the morning. So that's a good sign for you to go and change that account's password so you can make sure that criminals don't have it. Very simple rule Set up two-factor authentication.

Mike Gorday:

Can I get through the two-factor authentication?

Nathan Mumm:

Only if I would click yes. So hopefully, if I'm not logging into something I'm sleeping on the side of the bed and I see all these alerts coming on in for two factor authentication, I hopefully don't hit approve. Now I have known some people that all of a sudden say you know what, I'm getting tired of these buzzes. I'll hit approve, which would be the wrong thing to do, because now all of a sudden you gave people access to your accounts but just don't approve it and make sure when you actually log in you use two-factor authentication. So there you go.

Speaker 2:

This is not a new breach.

Nathan Mumm:

This has been out there for a long time. Don't be scared. Use two-factor authentication. All right, let's go to story number two, Mike.

Mike Gorday:

You sure you want to talk about that?

Nathan Mumm:

What's that? Story number two?

Mike Gorday:

Story number two, yeah, isn't this your favorite how tech execs are joining the Army without going to boot camp.

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah, tell me all about this. You were really excited when we brought this up in our production show.

Mike Gorday:

I think this is ridiculous?

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, well go through and explain it.

Mike Gorday:

Four top tech execs from OpenAI, meta and Palantir have joined the US Army. No obstacle courses, shouted orders or grueling marches required Uh-oh. But this is the Army Reserve, okay, and it has commissioned these senior tech leaders to serve as mid-level officers. Lieutenant colonels Okay, skipping tradition to pursue transformation. The newcomers won't attend any current version of the military's most basic and ingrained rite of passage boot camp. Instead, they'll be ushered in through express training.

Mike Gorday:

Army leaders are still hashing out, which is a form of officer training school okay, they'll do marksmanship training, physical training, they'll learn the army rank structure and history and uniforms, but it's still like boot camp. Light okay, you could think of it as a pilot program, and I have a problem with this myself. Okay, well, explain that If you don't put them through a training program, then they don't have an understanding of what it's like to serve in the military Okay, understanding of what it's like to serve in the military okay. And when they don't have an understanding of what it is to serve in the military, then they will be making decisions that aren't necessarily beneficial to the military okay, what about these special groups like have you watched the movie oppenheimer?

Nathan Mumm:

right, there's like these special people that come on in, they get different ranks, that are civilian people and don't go through the training.

Mike Gorday:

This is not something that's not precedented or unprecedented. The army has allowed direct commission of civilians since 1861. Okay, which is, you know, before the civil war. Yeah, to bring experts in that have critically needed skills into the armed forces.

Nathan Mumm:

So do you think they're bringing in these individuals to help lead side projects regarding, like AI?

Mike Gorday:

Well, it's obvious that they want to bring them in because of their skills, because of their knowledge about technology and things like that. I think it's a bad idea that if they don't have any basic training maybe not going through boot camp, but at least they need to understand what the military is and how the military works.

Nathan Mumm:

Do you think they would understand, just coming on as a civilian, the life of a military individual if they don't go through this?

Mike Gorday:

Yeah, they need to understand that, because the military is a social structure, okay, and it has its own ways of being and mores and things like that. And when you bring somebody in that doesn't understand those and you put them in a position of where they're in charge, then they can make. Like I said earlier, they can make decisions that don't said earlier. They can make decisions that don't bring in these pieces of that information that they would know if they were military to begin with.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, so yeah, now I will say this the list of the people that are there. You got the Meta you got the Chief.

Mike Gorday:

Technology Officer for Palantir uh. The chief technology officer of meta, that's kevin whale kevin or andrew bosworth uh is andrew bosworth.

Nathan Mumm:

Uh, kevin whale is.

Mike Gorday:

Kevin whale is the chief product officer at open ai, okay. And then bob grau, which is an advisor at thinking machine labs, okay, uh, and they will be joining the. Now, this is the Army Reserve, this isn't the regular Army. Okay, they are going to be joining them as lieutenant colonels.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, I think the Army Reserve is now all of a sudden chose to have like enlistments now of people in their 40s plus, so they've changed some of their.

Speaker 2:

Army Reserve.

Nathan Mumm:

It's possible that allows that to happen. So maybe this is just the branching out of that, but but you, you clearly were very passionate that you think they should go through the military training and understand what's going on yeah, I didn't actually read the whole article, so, uh, it appears that they are going to be doing something, but it's not going to be the normal route so that's a little bit better than in your opinion. What do you think then?

Mike Gorday:

I don't know okay okay, I don't know, I'm going to, I'm going to reserve judgment on that for the reserve army lieutenant colonels that are just going to be plugged into the army reserve command structure okay, well, you know, the military is like in the news every moment.

Nathan Mumm:

Now you know that it's getting more and more and more all right story, just hurt my knee are you okay?

Nathan Mumm:

all right. Story never. Well, there you go. Story number three open ai boss meta offering one million dollars to poach the open ai staff. The boss at open ai, sam altman, says members of his team have been getting giant offers from rival tech firm meta, including a 100 million dollar signing bonus. Meta, which owns facebook, instagram, whatsapp, is attempting to boost its ai side of business by offering to go and poach altman's best people. What do you think? A hundred? I?

Mike Gorday:

don't know the army's doing it. Why not meta a hundred?

Nathan Mumm:

million dollar signing except where they're not, you know you could always go and work for meta for a couple months and then you can come on back for open ai and you'll be ready to go all right. Well, there you go. Now, story number four. This is interesting the video game date. Everything has been released. Have you heard that? This is a sensation?

Mike Gorday:

a million downloads in one day, yeah I don't, even, I don't go ahead.

Nathan Mumm:

It's finally time to date everything as the title of this dating sim. You can now romance things around your home.

Mike Gorday:

So there's more.

Nathan Mumm:

I don't know. Okay, there's more than 100 voice actors who can woo from doors and walls to a mousetrap and a dust bunny behind the couch. So these are inanimate objects that you are able to date.

Ody:

Okay.

Nathan Mumm:

All right things get pretty meta, as you can also date the devs of the game Is meta, another word for stupid.

Mike Gorday:

Well, I don't know if it's meta.

Nathan Mumm:

It's a game itself. An overwhelming sense of dread happens, so you can.

Mike Gorday:

Even that word is existential dread, existential dread, so you can even that word is existential, existential, existential.

Nathan Mumm:

So you can have this dating the game itself, so you can fall in love with the game.

Mike Gorday:

I guess this is this. Is this? This really just inflames all my psychological knowledge here, Is it? Yeah, this is stupid, this is dumb, this is, this is not a good thing.

Nathan Mumm:

This is not what I'm going to ask you in the mesmerizing moment. A little bit more about this. You're going to need to break that down Now. There are multiple endings for each character, around 70,000 lines of dialogue, so there's plenty to explore here.

Mike Gorday:

Can I get my chair to be jealous of my microwave oven?

Nathan Mumm:

I think you can. That's what this game is. That's what this game is about Date. Everything All right. A million downloads in one day.

Mike Gorday:

I have a bad feeling about this. Oh, do you? You know there's going to be videos on the internet with Bounce Bounce Chicka, Bounce Bounce in there with the washing machine or the washing machine.

Nathan Mumm:

The washing machine is like the number one item that gets romance. That and the toilet, I guess, are the number one and two things in your house. So there you go.

Mike Gorday:

I don't know why you know that, but I'm not going to ask. You probably have the game already.

Nathan Mumm:

No, I did play it all the way.

Speaker 2:

Well, that ends our top technology stories of the week.

Nathan Mumm:

When we return, we have two truths and a lie. Can Nathan pass off the story as a true story that is already made up? Well, we'll find out. You're listening to Tech Time with Nathan Mumm. We'll be back after the commercial break.

Nathan Mumm:

Mmm. Welcome back to Tech Time Radio. Our weekly show covers the top technology subjects without any political agenda. We verify the facts, we do a sense of humor in less than 60 minutes and, of course, a little whiskey on the side. Today, Mark Gregoire, our whiskey connoisseur, is in the studio. Mark, what have you chosen for us today? Today?

Marc Gregoire:

we're drinking Old Grandad Bonded Bourbon, also known as OGD 100. Now from Jim Beam's distilling website. Basil Hayden Sr, known as Old Grandad to the generations that followed, made bourbon the way he wanted. He went against the traditional grain of the time and chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye. First bottled in 1882, very little has changed about it A spicy nose with hints of dried fruits, medium body shows some sweet vanilla, but more evident is the peppery spiciness displayed by notes of clove and cinnamon. All right Now. This is from Jim Beam Suntory. Their distillery is in Claremont, kentucky. It's a straight bourbon, four years, 100 proof, 63% corn, 27% rye, 10% malted barley, and it goes for $25.

Mike Gorday:

Well, this is definitely Nathan's top shelf, right here.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, no, come on, it's not my top shelf, I got it's on a second shelf Elisha and.

Marc Gregoire:

Craig.

Nathan Mumm:

It's on a second shelf. Oh, yeah, it's a second shelf. Yeah, it's your second shelf.

Marc Gregoire:

Oh, and because the bottle doesn't fit on this top shelf, which is a little shorter.

Mike Gorday:

Yeah, I know.

Nathan Mumm:

Oh, wow, okay, Okay, all right, this is. You know what We've had old granddads on before right, we have.

Marc Gregoire:

We've had the regular 86 proof and we've had the 114 proof.

Nathan Mumm:

And how have our ratings been? Did you go back and take?

Marc Gregoire:

a look at our ratings. Oh, okay, okay.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, I pretty much think I said thumbs up. I'm just going to guess, because this is the type of whiskey that I enjoy sitting on out in a nice summer breeze, a little fire on the side, it's fairly inexpensive and it's very nutty, like you.

Marc Gregoire:

That's why.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, all right.

Marc Gregoire:

It does have a screw cap. That's the only downside.

Nathan Mumm:

That's all right.

Marc Gregoire:

Don't forget to like and subscribe. Drink responsibly Heaven can wait.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, With our first whiskey tasting completed, let's move on to our feature segment. Today we have the game show everyone can play at home, but we're going to be playing it in the studio, and it's two truths and a lie.

Speaker 1:

And now we have two truths and a lie.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, I'm going to read you guys three headlines out of the news today, okay, or this week? Well, there may be a little bit delayed and you're going to tell me if it's true or if it's false. Okay, all right, here we go. Story number one you can get a lifetime license of microsoft office professional 2021 for 75. It's a lifetime license for one windows pc, ideal for those who don't want their software without a subscription. If your current version of office is starting to feel a little old, this might be the right time to upgrade without committing to a subscription.

Nathan Mumm:

Now, microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Windows is down to $74.97, marked down from its regular price of $219. It's a one-time purchase with a lifetime license for one Windows PC. Now this is what happens when you get this you download it to that PC. If you format that PC, the license is gone. It's only downloaded to that PC. If you format that PC, the license is gone. It's only downloaded to that PC. So once you so, you need to download this to your newest machine that you have. It's one account where you get a one-time use. It's a use it or lose it. After that, it's no longer there.

Ody:

So it's not a lifetime license.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, it's a lifetime license you will never have to upgrade. So this is what they consider old school software, but now we're calling it a lifetime license because you'll always have access to office professional 2021.

Ody:

you will never have to upgrade it, so I wouldn't be able to use it on my laptop and computer no, you got no one pcs.

Marc Gregoire:

A windows pc, one windows pc, let me, let me touch Mike, let me channel Mike. This is stupid.

Ody:

I agree.

Nathan Mumm:

Well you know what?

Ody:

It's $75. But is it a lie?

Nathan Mumm:

or is it a truth? Is it a lie, or is it a truth? Whatever it is, I got so much to say. That's true. See, you don't know, I could just be making it all up.

Mike Gorday:

Right, this is a. It could be because everybody replaces their PC every couple of years at the most.

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah.

Mike Gorday:

And so if they're buying this thing multiple times, that's going to equate to a subscription.

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah, it could, but everything now on the Office suite is pretty much a subscription basis. Your chance, all right. Story number two Trump confirms further delay on TikTok ban or sale deadline. Office suite pretty much a subscription basis your chance, all right. Story number two trump confirms further delay on tiktok ban or sale deadline. President donald trump has extended the deadline for tiktok sale in the us for another 90 days. The video sharing app has faced questions over its future after the us passed a law last year requiring the app to be banned unless sold by its chinese parent company, bite ByteDance. Lawmakers have said that it poses a risk to national security, something TikTok denies. Trump, who vowed to save TikTok during the presidential campaign, signed an executive order on Thursday, which was last week, which was delayed the date of enforcing the law for a third time. The date of enforcing the law for a third time. In a statement, tiktok said it was grateful for President Trump's leadership and support in keeping the app online for its 170 million users.

Mike Gorday:

Yeah, that sounds like a truth.

Marc Gregoire:

Yeah, this is so true.

Ody:

Yeah, I think that sounds pretty good, yeah, I have no doubt about that.

Mike Gorday:

That sounds like basic stuff right there.

Nathan Mumm:

That sounds like basic news, alright, so this is the third time it's been extended I.

Mike Gorday:

I don't think it's ever gonna not be extended.

Nathan Mumm:

You think so. You think it's just gonna continue forever? Yeah, so he's never gonna sell it have you ever heard that buddy?

Ody:

buddy with the ceo? I can't see him. You know his ce CEO came on over and hung out. Yeah, yeah.

Nathan Mumm:

They hung out, same with you know he's done the same thing with Zuckerberg, but I think, as long as you keep, around then you can push Zuckerberg around. If there's no tick tock, then I guess, as president Trump, you can't push tick tock around to do what it's or you can't meta to do what they want to do.

Mike Gorday:

There's or you can't meta to do what they want to do. There's a nice phrase from Game of Thrones. It's called words or wind. What does that mean? Words or?

Nathan Mumm:

wind. Oh, they just come in the wind. They just don't mean anything, Okay well, alright, so you got two stories so far. Are you leaning towards one of those, the two stories being false? No Okay, here we got the next story. Head stories being false. No okay, here we got the next story headline number three a 500 made in america smartphone will be released in august of this year.

Mike Gorday:

That's wrong. That's false hang on.

Marc Gregoire:

This is a. This is a tricky one because it's in the news as being true, okay, so I'm just, it'll be false as hell okay.

Nathan Mumm:

well, hang on. So I to read the article first and you got to tell me if that's the true news article or not. All right, the Trump Organization, led by President's eldest son, said last week that it has licensed Donald Trump's name to a new wireless service and a gold-colored phone. The T1 has a device. It's supposed to be available in August for $499. It's proudly designed and built in the United States, the company said in a statement. The T1, in contrast, would retail for just a fraction of the price, raising questions about how such a US-made device would be profitable. Now the Trump organization didn't disclose which company would make the T1 or where it will be produced.

Nathan Mumm:

What's that?

Mike Gorday:

Where'd your win? Where'd your?

Nathan Mumm:

win. It only gave some technical specification, including that it will run on Google Android's operating system, come with a fingerprint sensor and facial recognition for unlocking, and has a 6.8 inch screen.

Marc Gregoire:

Did you also mention two megabytes of memory? The look and the tech specs match exactly to a phone made in China. Well, hang on.

Speaker 8:

We're getting there, we're getting there.

Nathan Mumm:

I mean this could be false, we're getting there.

Nathan Mumm:

The product page for the phone is also riddled with errors and omissions. It's described the device as having a 5,000 milliamp long life camera which should read battery An error that was fixed after it first noted comes with 12 gigabytes Ram storage. Ram is generally referred to as memory, since any data stored in Ram is grace, so it's not really a 12 gigabyte storage device, cause that would be the Ram that's in there. The Trump organization did not say who it's partnering with on the wireless service or device, but tucked away in the website's terms of use is a reference to the service being powered by Liberty Mobile Wireless, itself a virtual carrier that uses other companies' networks. Wireless coverage will come from the nation's three biggest wireless providers, the Trump organization said.

Ody:

So does it have the storage space on there? It did not put the storage space on it. It has two megabytes of storage.

Nathan Mumm:

It didn't put how big it better be at least 32. It should be 32.

Mike Gorday:

So there we go. It operates on a BOD ratio A $500 Maine in America smartphone.

Nathan Mumm:

Now I, just as you were saying, there is an equivalent to this T1 that is made by China and Taiwan. It's by both companies. That looks almost exactly like what they kind of modeled on their website briefly and then took the picture off. And this isn't made in the United States. I don't know.

Marc Gregoire:

That story was released as true.

Nathan Mumm:

It was released as true.

Marc Gregoire:

Now it's kind of like a Saturday Night Live sketch, Okay. Remember when they used to have Donald Jr and Eric on there, the two sons, yeah, so Donald did this press release.

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah.

Marc Gregoire:

And then Eric, let it slip a little later that eventually this is going to happen. Eventually it's going to happen.

Mike Gorday:

It's going to. This is going to happen. Eventually it's going to happen. It's going to be made in the us.

Nathan Mumm:

So so what do you want us to determine? Whether this is a true title or a false title? Well, this is do you is this? So here's what we're going okay.

Mike Gorday:

So the game is two truth and a lie, so one of these is supposed to be patently false. That is correct, and the other two are supposed to be true. But you've given us two. That could be either.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, how are you going with that? Are you saying the 500 made in america smartphone I released in august of this year was not released as a true story?

Ody:

yeah, I don't think it was made in america it was released as a true I think I think that's.

Mike Gorday:

I think that's a. I think that's a true release. I don't. I don't think that's a true release. I don't think it's a true thing. I think it's a true.

Nathan Mumm:

Article title Okay, so we're going to go with article title. So we're going to go with article title today.

Mike Gorday:

So if we're going with article titles, I'm going to come down on the first one being the false one. Okay, all right Because that seems like the most ridiculous one out of the three. All right, mike cheers.

Marc Gregoire:

I'm with you, odie, are you going?

Nathan Mumm:

to go with the guys. Yeah, I'll do that and true story is the $500 made in American smartphone. Congratulations. It has been announced that it will come out and be released in August. Now I will just tell you I highly doubt this will ever happen.

Speaker 2:

I think, it's false.

Nathan Mumm:

But that is a true story. Trump did confirm the delay of TikTok to ban the sale deadline for 90 days. So that is the true story. You guys are correct. You can actually get a lifetime license of Microsoft Office Professional for $50, not $75. Really, I'm kind of persuaded to get it then, so it's for $50. So let's talk about this.

Mike Gorday:

That was cheap buddy. That was a cheap way of trying to win the game.

Nathan Mumm:

I also changed everything in here too, so let's talk about this. So you get a one time purchase. The license is only for a Windows PC, but you can move it from machine to machine Because you own the actual license, like old fashioned software so you could have it.

Marc Gregoire:

It's different than any other license in the old days before subscription.

Mike Gorday:

That's like Windows 95. That's why.

Nathan Mumm:

I made it up. That's why I made it up.

Marc Gregoire:

And lifetime is silly because they discontinue it, they don't put patches and it actually doesn't run on new operating systems.

Nathan Mumm:

So that's kind of a lie too, but that's not at least how they're selling it. They are selling it for $49.97, you can get a lifetime upgrade of Office Professional 2021.

Speaker 2:

Now, just to let you know, this is 2025.

Nathan Mumm:

There has been seven different. Yeah, are you sure? I'm sure. Okay, there's been seven different upgrades to this Office Professional 2021.

Mike Gorday:

This is the pandemic plus version of the.

Nathan Mumm:

So if you really wanted to go with something that is newer than this that is absolutely free, I would just suggest don't purchase the microsoft office and go online to use this product called open office. Open office is a great tool. Have you used open office before? Od you're looking at me like that? Why You're looking at me like that?

Ody:

Why are you looking at me like that? Because Google's right there. I'm a Google girlie. You got everything right there. She's on Tech Time.

Mike Gorday:

Radio, where we always hear about how everything gets hacked and destroyed and messed up.

Ody:

So why would I use an open office? Nothing is safe.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay. Well, there is free products that are available that do come with patches, that are actually good for word processing. If you need something for word processing, if you need something for your Excel spreadsheets, you can find that with OpenOffice for absolutely free updates every month. Good system. It actually converts PDFs better than, in my opinion, than the PDF converter that you get from Adobe, and you don't have to worry about the licensing and the trials or anything. So I would say, go and look at OpenOffice as an alternative for your PDF editors.

Marc Gregoire:

What does Nathan Mumm use for his word processor?

Nathan Mumm:

I use, of course, Office 365. So I use the updated version.

Ody:

Yeah, he's a Microsoft girl. He's sticking through.

Nathan Mumm:

I am, so I do use that, but I do not do the one-time purchase so there you go, why would you? Well, that ends our segment. Two truths and a lie up. Next we have mike's mesmerizing moment. Welcome to mike's mesmerizing moment. What does mike have to say today? All right, mike, here's your mesmerizing moment. Our video game's getting too much like reality. Let's talk about this video game that I opened up and talked about All right?

Mike Gorday:

Is this about the day and everything? This isn't about reality. This is about fantasy.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, is it about fantasy? Well, explain to me why are we getting so into? I was just looking at video games online. There is a lawnmower simulator. So if I want to do my yard, I can go out and do it, but wait, you can't hate on those. Those are fine. What are you?

Mike Gorday:

talking about.

Ody:

Those are some of the very first ones yeah, well, no, no, no, this is a brand new release.

Mike Gorday:

I just was playing the the lawnmower I, I played the lawnmower video game okay, back in 1980 okay.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, I guess I must have had an updated version of this. I'm sure they just recycled it.

Mike Gorday:

That was one of the very first video games. It was like a math school.

Nathan Mumm:

It was a pressure washer gaming game. I love that game.

Mike Gorday:

It's like Zen you just go and you just clean stuff.

Ody:

It's out getting dirty without any of the hard labor.

Nathan Mumm:

It's a very strange, very zen-like thing to do, so you want to go and you want to go for your enjoyment. You want to go and you want to clean windows in cement with your power washing.

Speaker 2:

Have you tried it.

Nathan Mumm:

Yes, I have tried it.

Marc Gregoire:

I don't understand why you guys are both Nathan Mike and Odie are invited over to my house to pressure wash in real life.

Mike Gorday:

That's exactly right. That's not the point. The point is Be all Zen you want in my house, clean it up. It's like Minecraft. You just zone out and do it yeah, okay, exactly.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, so are these good then for society? So I mean, let me ask you, you that's such a big jump. Yeah, that's a hang on. I said our video games, not nathan's awesomeness. No, our video game is getting too much like reality.

Mike Gorday:

That's this, this is the concept. This is a no. I I don't. I don't when we're talking about a game that allows you to date your microwave. I think that's problematic because, first off, we don't need to be blurring the lines of fantasy in the real world. Okay, you know, this is like the AI bots that I talk about with the dating apps. Yeah, the dating bots. Yeah, they're harmful psychologically and it encourages unhealthy relationships with things that we want to anthropomorphize okay which means we want to make it human.

Mike Gorday:

So if, if I have a game that is encouraging me to treat my washing machine like a romantic partner, I don't think you need any 70s music to see the problem there. Okay okay that's problematic, okay, but if you have a game now, what type of 70s music? I see the problem there. Okay, okay, that's problematic, okay, but if you have a game now, what type of 70s music?

Nathan Mumm:

I just want to make sure I already bound, bound chicken okay, okay, okay. That's what I was thinking. I just want to make sure we're talking about romance, right?

Mike Gorday:

yeah, okay, you don't need to be running around doing romantic things with your microwave, okay because you could get hurt okay, yeah, okay. But if you have a game that you know, all these simulator games there's. There's simulator games for pressure washing, their simulator games for farming, their simulator games for everything. Um, those are different in that it doesn't encourage you to blur the lines of reality in your own house okay, okay, okay and so like is it like the pressure washing thing?

Mike Gorday:

like I said it, it can help you take your mind off of the stresses of the day because you're simply it's, it's almost a meditation, it's almost right you're, you're just doing repetitive behaviors and it helps. It helps you with stress. But when you're encouraging things like, uh, dating your microwave, that that I I don't think any any reasonable person would would look at that and go, oh yeah, that's awesome okay and we're reasonable people I didn't say that I said any reasonable person all right.

Mike Gorday:

I mean, are you gonna? What are you not about turning off?

Ody:

your brain nathan. What did you? What did?

Mike Gorday:

you date. What is that? You said you date?

Nathan Mumm:

you played the game, so I played it I played it for a little bit to see what it was actually about, so I can make sure when people ask me about it. And so I dated the washing machine. And what did it do? It popped up this little animated character and it says hi, I'm the washing machine. So it actually put a character.

Marc Gregoire:

Did you choose the washing?

Ody:

machine because of when are the eyes?

Marc Gregoire:

You know, a lot of people get pleasure from the washing machine.

Nathan Mumm:

Oh, whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa whoa whoa.

Mike Gorday:

Okay, no, that's funny. Why are you bringing that?

Nathan Mumm:

up? Not at all. Just because that was the thing in the house, I would have dated the fridge the fridge okay.

Mike Gorday:

Yeah, I think most men would probably date the fridge.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, well, you know what?

Mike Gorday:

Or the grill the grill.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, you can have a grill. That's my lover. You could not get out of the house, so at least the game. Oh what, it only has it in the house.

Mike Gorday:

You're stuck in the house, and you should never grill in the house. See, even this discussion doesn't make any sense, right? It doesn't have to. I mean, this is just incredibly, this rising moments, it's mindless badness.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, up next we have this Week in Technology, so now would be a great time to enjoy a little whiskey on the side, as we're going to be doing a show during the break. You're listening to Tech Time Radio with Nathan Mumsey in a few minutes. Hey, mike.

Speaker 1:

And now let's look back at this week in technology.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, in our way back machine, we're going to June 28th 1965. The first commercial communication satellite is activated, the Intel sat one. The first commercial communication satellite is activated for service and his nickname is early bird, after the famous proverb, and becomes famous for carrying the first commercial telephone call between America and Europe, as well as helping provide TV coverage of the Gemini six splashdown. So this was the idea. Intel sat has helped make Elon Musk and his idea of satellite communication a reality because of the Intel sat one back in 1965.

Mike Gorday:

Are you sure that's why?

Nathan Mumm:

Oh yeah, satellite communication a reality because of the.

Mike Gorday:

Intel sat one back in 1965. Are you sure?

Nathan Mumm:

that's why, well, yeah, are you sure that has nothing to do with billions of dollars?

Mike Gorday:

No, I mean the idea of bouncing off a telephone call and making Wally become a real thing.

Nathan Mumm:

There you go, all right. Well, that was this week in technology. If you ever wanted to watch some Tech Time history, with over 250 plus weekly broadcasts spanning our four plus years of video, podcast and blog information, you can visit TechTimeRadiocom to watch our older shows.

Speaker 1:

The segment we've been waiting all week for Mark's Whiskey Mumble.

Nathan Mumm:

All right.

Marc Gregoire:

What do we got here? Today is a very special day for me. Today you probably won't guess today- Okay, I'm not even going to make you guess.

Nathan Mumm:

Oh, all right.

Mike Gorday:

It's not national date. Your toaster day, Is it?

Nathan Mumm:

national flip a coin day. It is not Okay. He just said he wasn't gonna make his guess, it's you know. So we both guessed anyways, all right okay, that's part of the show.

Mike Gorday:

We have to try and guess we're actually so.

Marc Gregoire:

I am celebrating two things today saint jean baptiste day and farmer's day. Oh, jean-baptiste is celebrated by French Canadians, which honor the traditional feast of the Nativity or the birth of St John the Baptist, and Farmer's Day is celebrated in Peru every year as a tribute to the hardworking local farmers that provide food to the table to every Peruvian. Farmer Day is also celebrated in tandem with the feast of St John the Baptist Day.

Mike Gorday:

You're really starting to reach for these, aren't you? Well, thank you, Mike.

Marc Gregoire:

That leads to why am I celebrating these two today?

Nathan Mumm:

Okay, why are you celebrating?

Marc Gregoire:

So we're sipping Old Grandad bonded today, which feels especially meaningful this year for me, knowing my grandfather was born, raised and owned a farm in St Jean-Baptiste, manitoba.

Mike Gorday:

Canada oh looky there.

Marc Gregoire:

Where the day not only honors the patron of his hometown, it also celebrates the hardworking farmers who shape families and communities. Like his, my dad grew up on his farm. Really Thank you Odie.

Ody:

Let's give it for his grandpa.

Nathan Mumm:

That's right. Have you ever thought about moving back to Canada? I have, I have.

Marc Gregoire:

Let's talk about Old Grandad Bonded Now. This is one of the few widely available bourbons still made under the strict standards of the Bottle and Bond Act of 1897. Meaning it's distilled by one distiller at one distillery in one distillation season, aged at least four years, bottled in exactly 100 proof under US government supervision. It's a throwback to when Bonded was a mark of quality in American whiskey. All right, now Old Grandad is a solid bourbon.

Speaker 2:

It's nutty as we see today, very approachable.

Marc Gregoire:

A great pick for someone just getting into whiskey. That said, I tend to lean to Old GDD 114, which is on your shelf.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay.

Marc Gregoire:

Which is the same mashable, just a little bit higher proof for a few bucks more. It brings more punch and depth of flavor, and it's a higher proof is too much. You add a little ice to bring it down to 100 without watering it down or losing the body.

Mike Gorday:

All right, and with.

Marc Gregoire:

that said, this is still a solid bottle. If you're not into the higher proofs, I would definitely go the bonded over. The 86 proof Okay Makes a big difference.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, and this is on your shelf, your second shelf, third shelf, or where do you, where do you keep this at your?

Marc Gregoire:

I kind of bought this for the show. It's very inexpensive, as we saw $25. Uh, when it goes back it's going to go in my cocktail cabinet, okay.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, that makes sense.

Marc Gregoire:

All right.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, our information regarding our whiskey. Whiskey and technology are a great pairing, similar to cell phones and protective cases. One item compliments the other. Let me just ask you All right, I'm going to go down the line here how many of you guys have a cell phone? Everybody raises their hand. Now, how many of you guys, when you got your cell phone, bought a protective case? You mean like the one on why are you asking?

Nathan Mumm:

that question Because it's just interesting that you can't have a cell phone without a protective case. So you should just actually get your cell phone with a protective case, and then you'd be good to go.

Ody:

You're not those kind of people that just like deal with it for the week no, I don't.

Nathan Mumm:

That's what I do. Do you actually get it without a case? I'm looking at yours as a case right now.

Ody:

Yeah, after the fact. Okay, but I never have the case in hand when I go into the store.

Mike Gorday:

When I bought my new cell phone, about what? A month and a half, two months ago, they didn't have cases.

Nathan Mumm:

What it was so new. You couldn't find a knockoff case anywhere.

Mike Gorday:

I had to order it online. They didn't have it at the store.

Marc Gregoire:

I don't know how you guys do that. I order my case first. I know during that week it's so slippery. I'm going to drop it.

Ody:

I feel so nice when I don't have a case on.

Nathan Mumm:

Are you kidding me? I can't touch my phone. If I put it in a pocket and I put my keys in there, it'll get scratched forever.

Ody:

No, I feel so, bougie, because rich people don't care about if they drop their phone or anything.

Marc Gregoire:

I only do that. Is that how you?

Mike Gorday:

manage your life. I want to feel rich, so I don't have a case of remodeling.

Ody:

I can't have a case.

Mike Gorday:

I get it, odie, or you did. I got like this one that's waterproof and everything. I use mine without a case every night, but it's only in bed. Do you have a?

Marc Gregoire:

dating app to go with it. Wow, he dates his phone.

Mike Gorday:

I do the charger, the wireless charger. You take off the protective case every night. Is that like his lingerie?

Marc Gregoire:

You take off the protective case Is that, like it's lingerie, you take off the case.

Nathan Mumm:

Wow, you can just buy a case with a charger.

Marc Gregoire:

Those are more expensive.

Mike Gorday:

You are not following the joke. I got it. You're not following the joke.

Ody:

I actually think.

Mike Gorday:

Thank you. Oh my God, this is getting a little creepy, let's prepare for our technology.

Nathan Mumm:

fail of the week brought to us by Elite Executive Services. Congratulations, You're a failure.

Speaker 8:

Oh, I failed. Did I yes, did I yes.

Nathan Mumm:

All right. This week's technology fail comes to us from a game called Splitgate 2. Now Splitgate 2 confirms that you have a 1 in 100 chance that when you go into the crouching mode in this new Halo meets Portal first person shooter, you may just let off a fart. What Now? Players are discovering more than just Portal based tricks. In Splitgate's to new beta, they found you can randomly let rip a loud, unmistakable fart when you crouch. Now split gate is a first-person shooter, often described as halo meets portal on an account of its old school competitive arenas. It's a sci-fi arsenal of weapons and portals you can place almost anywhere on the map and you go there and you take trick shots. You shoot out people, kind of like the original Quake version. But the free-to-play sequel beta is out now and developers are managing to squeeze off those butt-clenching important changes at farty butts.

Nathan Mumm:

Okay.

Marc Gregoire:

I totally agree. This is a fail. This is a fail Only one in a hundred. It needs to be a higher number.

Mike Gorday:

That's a fail. This is a fail, only one in a hundred.

Marc Gregoire:

It needs to be a higher number. That's a fail. Okay, I'm. I'm just gonna ask the question about why do you want, why do you want your dude to fart? Yeah, why do you want it? So what guy doesn't want that?

Mike Gorday:

come on, come on. Well, it I mean in actual gameplay does it alert everybody?

Nathan Mumm:

to your position. Yes, it does. Okay, all right. So when you go down there, you go. What it does is it actually puts it out, oh there, james is over there. He's around the corner he's camping.

Ody:

That's right. Is it a continuous fart or is it just when you go down? It's just?

Nathan Mumm:

the one time little fart. So if you're camping and if you hit the crouch button, people are repeatedly hitting the crouch button to test this out. Right, so they're going on in Now.

Marc Gregoire:

we all know there's an array of different sounds related to fart. I'm not really sure that they rotate them, the different sounds or the different styles, or is it just one Do?

Nathan Mumm:

you need to have a fart in a video game, though. This should have been a two-shooter lie.

Mike Gorday:

I don't know that this is a fail. How is this a fail?

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah, do you really want a video game where you're farting?

Ody:

Yes, you said yes, okay, I say yes, oh, my gosh, because when you're playing something like Fortnite, where people can just hide in the bush, the whole game.

Nathan Mumm:

Yeah.

Ody:

Like it'll be nice. That way you know there's people actually finding it out, instead of this guy that's just out in the. Okay, yeah, that would be kind of fun.

Nathan Mumm:

Why is the bush farting?

Mike Gorday:

Can you light it on fire?

Nathan Mumm:

No, you can't light it on fire and you have to continuously hit the crouch button down. Yeah, so Mark wants different fart, different fart versions.

Ody:

There should be like seven different Options, that every time you fart there's a new sound.

Nathan Mumm:

So you got like the long fart.

Mike Gorday:

You got like the wet fart.

Ody:

I wasn't even going to go there Nathan.

Mike Gorday:

We don't need you to catalog those?

Nathan Mumm:

I'm just curious because I do not know why anytime I'd be playing a Halo game or any first person shooter. Why, if I'm crouching down and I'm walking, that?

Marc Gregoire:

I want to, because it's a form of cheating. I know we take, take counterpoint, nathan, but tell me the truth. Aren't you a little excited about this?

Nathan Mumm:

No, I wouldn't be no.

Ody:

You're excited to play the game where you can fall in love with the machine, but not fart on a game, no, I was not excited to play the game.

Nathan Mumm:

I just played the game so I could know what I was actually talking. So you're running around in Halo and I'm over here in Blood Gulch and I'm going to squat down to take a shot from a deal and all of a sudden it's going to do this big loud rip, so everybody's going to know I'm in the corner type of deal. Come on now. Come on now. You're not even going to hear a fart in most.

Mike Gorday:

This is like why did you ask me the question about games becoming more real? Because that's a reality thing.

Nathan Mumm:

Do you like the crouch?

Mike Gorday:

button. Do I like the crouch button? Do you like the?

Nathan Mumm:

idea of having a crouch button for folks.

Mike Gorday:

I just know that when you crouch in real life, sometimes you just cut one.

Nathan Mumm:

Wow Okay.

Marc Gregoire:

It's very zen, isn't?

Nathan Mumm:

it. It's very zen yeah. We're going to head out to a commercial break this wasn't a fail, what would be turning this about?

Mike Gorday:

I'm on with Mark. It should be more often than one in a hundred oh my word.

Nathan Mumm:

How could it not be a fail? All right, we're going to head out to a commercial break. When we return, we have the Nathan Nugget and, of course, our pick of the day. Sit back, raise a glass to figure out what's going on with the farts. See ya.

Mike Gorday:

How to See a man About a Dog. It combines darkly comic short stories, powerful poems and pulp fiction prose to create a heartbreaking and hilarious journey readers will not soon forget. Read how to See a man About a Dog. Collected writings for free with Kindle. Unlimited E-book available on Kindle. Print copies available on Amazon. The Book Pository and more.

Speaker 1:

This is your nugget of the week All right, here we go.

Nathan Mumm:

On June 18th 2025, mid Journey crew added something we've been waiting for Now. Mid Journey is the AI tool that I talked about almost two years ago on the show. It's how you can create pictures and AI. It's just discord. You have to have an account on discord, you go to their discord area and you would type in create an image on X and it created the AI images. Midjourney has now removed the requirement that you have to actually go to Discord to use their app. They actually now have an application on their site, just midjourneycom, and what it does is it does AI generation of graphics and on June 18th it now released video generations to create videos.

Nathan Mumm:

Now, we actually did this during our production meeting at Tech Time Radio on the radio and it is really competitive to the OpenAI Sora, which is available online, to also create video items that are available. Did you get it to fart? I did not get it to fart. No, I did not, but just real quick 20 seconds layouts of how you use this. If you have a MidJourney account it's about 19 bucks a month you can go on in and choose MidJourney. On their new V1 application, there's a little button on the top left-hand side. That allows you to ask a question first for a graphic and then from there you can click on build a video of the graphic you have.

Nathan Mumm:

Now. It comes in four second increments and it tops out at a total of 21 seconds total. Right now that's available in the version that is released. It will continue to add different items. Now it didn't do very good because we we we had some very nice AI generated pictures and we asked it to have a kid on a bicycle jump over a mud puddle and we actually had the problem where the bike was jumping without a mud puddle. There is a mud puddle that then would show up after it jumped, so that it did have some uh problems still on his generation of what to do. But as far as the motion style and the actual way that it did it, I thought it was fairly well adaptive to creating kind of an animated version. What did you think of it, mike, when we were doing this on the demo?

Mike Gorday:

I wasn't really all that impressed with it, you didn't think it was that great.

Nathan Mumm:

No, okay, alright.

Mike Gorday:

Well, just to let you know it's something I'm not going to pay 20 bucks a month to have you don't want to do that.

Nathan Mumm:

Well, the output right now is only 720p on an MP4 file, so it's only 24 frames per second. They do say higher resolutions will become available at a later time, but this is now getting into the features where you can actually go and request something from AI and create actual live videos.

Mike Gorday:

Okay, tell me what I would want to do that with. What would I want that application for?

Nathan Mumm:

Well, what if you had a picture of yourself that you uploaded and you wanted to have yourself animate and maybe say a funny saying?

Marc Gregoire:

Could he just film himself doing that I?

Nathan Mumm:

guess he could film himself doing it.

Mike Gorday:

But if you wanted to have an AI, do that I'm going to pay $20 a month so that I can do that.

Nathan Mumm:

It'll be my christmas card well, you do, you ever do you like watching cartoons. But you can take a funny segment of something you like and you can ask it. You know when we were playing with this.

Mike Gorday:

We were. We were messing around with a paper boy on a bicycle video and you were telling him to jump and, and you know what I left. Yeah, what do?

Marc Gregoire:

you mean you left?

Mike Gorday:

I stopped watching. I went and started reading a book. What Are you serious? Yeah, you didn't like the AI generation. It makes no sense to me. But then again, I'm an old guy and you know these wonderful things that I'm going to pay 20 bucks a month for just so I can play around with video. Ai is just just. You know my, not my dream awesome.

Nathan Mumm:

I know that you're on our production meetings and sometimes you're leaving and reading a book oh, absolutely wow, wow, wow, wow we are looking for. Okay, all right, let's move on now to our pick of the day whiskey tasting and now our pick of the day for our whiskey tastings.

Marc Gregoire:

Let's see what bubbles to the top old granddad bottled bourbon, also known as ogd 100, from jim bean distillery straight bourbon, four years under proof 25 on the shelf.

Nathan Mumm:

All right, this is nathan's gonna give it a thumbs up, absolutely Thumbs up. I like this. I think I've liked this before. Have I liked it before? What was my previous? You've always given old granddad thumbs up. This is a whiskey I like.

Mike Gorday:

This has got the palate for me.

Marc Gregoire:

Thumbs up, thumbs down.

Mike Gorday:

You know, I'm going to give it really all that standout-ish, yeah Okay.
