The Outer Worlds: A Meaningless RPG

Audio-only version of a podcast: https://duckracy.com/podcast/the-outer-worlds-a-meaningless-rpg/

Sometimes there are characters in video games that make you care for them. Sometimes characters are there just to establish that this thing you are about to dispose of - was a humanoid. But what happens if the characters you were supposed to root for are but a bare shell of a character? And what happens if the game was supposed to be a story-rich? I would consider it a disaster. Maybe I am in the wrong here but maybe not. Let's dive in the wonderful world of the character development of the Outer Worlds and try to figure it out.

BSP-089: Google, The New Apple

On episode 89 of the BSP, I talk about all the devices announced at the Google Pixel event in 2017. I also cover some changes that google made to their Search Algorithm, as well as youtube demonetizing videos that cover controversial topics and the hypocrisy in their moves.

In terms of security news I talk about the status of the FBI tool used to unlock the iPhone 5c from San Bernadino, the Pentagonn using off the shelf security software, and Equifax being hired by the IRS to manage tax payer information verification.

In the ask bandrew segment, I answer some questions about music and share some recommendations for budget XLR mics.
