","summary":"This episode of AwesomeCast dives into the latest tech gadgets and news with hosts Sorg, Dudders, and Podnar. They discuss new iPhone features like live voicemail transcription, voice isolation for clearer calls, and creating custom stickers from photos. Sorg reviews the Wellitory app which analyzes Apple Watch data to provide health ratings and recommendations for better sleep, exercise, and reducing stress. The hosts also explore iOS accessibility features that allow you to record your voice before potential speech loss, and then use it for text-to-speech. Plus, updates to ChatGPT like new voice and image capabilities, though concerns remain around impersonation and fraud. Podnar demos Google's Bard AI extensions which summarize your personal info and activities from Gmail, YouTube, Maps, and more. And the gang chats about the complexities of purchasing dinosaur fossils, after Dudders learns skeleton \"Barry\" is being auctioned for over $1 million. They get tips from ChatGPT on fundraising ideas. Finally, Dudders raves about the new cozy Aldi-branded apparel line with sweatshirts, tees and pajamas perfect for working from home.","date_published":"2023-09-26T20:00:00.000-04:00","attachments":[{"url":"https://aphid.fireside.fm/d/1437767933/97acd222-e2fa-42b6-a239-7679d54bf343/198ba4f0-55e8-4f93-9863-80442e3e052d.mp3","mime_type":"audio/mpeg","size_in_bytes":106679844,"duration_in_seconds":3266}]},{"id":"8faa83a1-953f-44be-9662-8df43bcebd14","title":"Big Beats and Big Fans with Kidmental | AwesomeCast 655","url":"https://awesomecast.fireside.fm/762","content_text":"This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, and Sidekick Media Services and listeners like you at www.patreon.com/awesomecast\n\nIntroduction of musical guest Kidmental and his improv looping skills with a live performance!

This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, Alex Kahrs Design & Media, and The Millvale Music Festival!
\n\n
It may be the first day of spring, but we’re not sure Pittsburgh got the memo. While Chilla is tucked away all nice and warm in Studio C, Sorg and Dudders braved the snow to make it into the Sorgatron Media studio for this week’s tech talk, including:
\n\n
Katie is sharing a YouTube web streaming option that doesn’t require an encoder. \nChilla is sharing some apps for sketching as his Awesome Thing of the Week with Concepts and Linea Sketch. \nSorg has been playing more video games lately. He’s telling us about Inside. \nSorg shares how he recently deleted all of the freemium games from his phone. \nFan of the show Alex Kahrs shared some thoughts on One Cast and a live stream option he’s using these days. \nThanks to The Incline for including us (and our friends) in the Big List of Pittsburgh Podcasts. \nAmanda put CMRA on our radar with her addition to this week’s tech news. \nGoogle is opening their Google Maps API to game developers. \nThere’s an AR version of StreetFighter! \nSega Genesis’ collection of games is coming to PS4 and Xbox One! \nWho kept their Tamagotchi alive? There’s a chance to redeem yourself! \nLooking for the next Raspberry Pi option? Raspberry Pi 3 and Model B+ are available! \nWe are sending Katie into the world looking for Raspberry Pi. \nWe’re taking wagers on how many times she’ll be offered Raspberry Pie instead. \nWaze is offering a carpool option in Washington State. \nWeb OS is still alive – and making our news cycle as they go from HP to LG and now Open Source. \nSorg recently discovered Fortnite. \nApparently the Sony Playstation will die without porn?

We were able to get Katie and Sorg away from Animal Crossing long enough to talk about this week’s news in tech, including: \nKatie is torn between her iPhone X and being dubbed in German as her Awesome Thing of the Week. \nKatie is talking about some of the cool stuff she’s done with her iPhone X for video. \nDoug is talking the future of smartphones with Samsung’s new battery tech that could fully charge a phone in minutes. \nSorg is blaming Katie for his addiction to his Awesome Thing of the Week – Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. \nY’know what, if you don’t want to wait 7 hours for pizza, head over to Slice and get some perfect pepperoni pizza. \nAlthough net neutrality issues aren’t cool, Pitchwerks put the perfect explanation together with some help from Spare Change. \nShout out to Brian Crawford for picking up an iPad Pro. Speaking of – we’re talking about his question about whether or not we need a traditional laptop anymore. \nWatching TV while playing video games? Doug is talking about how things are changing. \nBack to the Future reference thanks to Doug and his multiple device usage commentary. \nIf we’re doing all this stuff IRL, can you imagine VR adaptations? \nWe talked last week about Ello coming back. People have noticed. There is naked spam. \nWe’re talking some Carnegie Science Center omnimax upgrades! \nWant to kick your smartphone addiction? There’s a Substitute Phone to help you. \nAfter the show remember to:

\n
South Korean robots company has built a real Gundam!
\n
Max is a gamer. Of course he's sharing some awesome game stories.

Need something do with your old phone? How about turn it into a security camera.
\n
You know we like drones. How about a Snoopy drone?

\n
Who's still playing Pokemon GO? Sorg slowly raises his hand
\n
Chilla is sharing his thoughts on the Pokemon GO integration with his watch.

It's our last episode of the year. We're getting geeky and nostalgic - checking our predictions from last year and talking tech and social media predictions for 2017, with the local nerds that use it on AwesomeCast 329!
\n\n
\n
We're LIVE with our year-end Christmas show with Doug Derda and Cynthia Closkey, talking about our awesome things of the year on this week's episode.
\n
Sling and cordcutting were our awesome things of the year for 2015 as we reflected back last year.
\n
Meerkat? Wow!
\n
Cynthia is sharing her awesome thing of the year for 2016 - her smart watch (Apple Watch) and wearables in general.
\n
Sorg is sharing his woes over the Pebble buyout in comparison to the Apple Watch.
\n
Doug is pitching a Kickstarter campaign for a Kickstarter movie talking about Kickstarter campaigns.
\n
Google Glass is still a discussion at the end of 2016.
\n
Wheelz is sharing his awesome thing of the year - his Samsung phone.
\n
Doug is sharing Facebook LIVE as his awesome thing of the year and how interesting instacontent is.
\n
Speaking of bleeding edge tech - we can't help but talk about iJustine and how she was livestreaming a decade ago.
\n
How do you stand out in a tidal wave of content now that instacontent is so available?
\n
Are people looking at instacontent for content or for interaction with other people?
\n
Doug is teaching us about the Musically app through his son's usage.
\n
Sorg's awesome thing of the year is self-driving cars - especially since he's been in one!
\n
Speaking of self-driving cars, studies show traffic would be better with less traffic lights.
\n
It's 2016 prediction recap time! \n-- Doug was WRONG with his prediction about online superstardom. \n-- Cynthia is recapping her accurate mom factor prediction about streaming programming. \n-- AI advancement prediction by Chilla is ACCURATE! (You can thank Alexa, Sir.) \n-- DJ Lunchbox's iPhone7 prediction - ACCURATE! (WTH headphone jacks?) \n-- Technology to communicate with pets. Sorry Katie, we're not sure whether Catterbox counts this year.
\n
Apple's biggest innovation - a phone that doesn't explode!
\n
Predictions for 2017! \n-- Doug predicts Google+ will finally die. \n-- Sorg thinks Twitter will not be an independent company by the end of 2017. Will it go to Verizon? \n-- Cynthia thinks VR video will not be a thing next year, as in it's not going anywhere, and we won't know why. She doesn't believe it will get past Cardboard and it'll be at least another 3 years before we see any solid movement with VR. \n-- Rizz predicts the Nintendo Switch will revolutionize gaming
\n
Thanks for a great (at least by way of tech) 2016! Make sure to hit us up with what tech Santa brought you!

We'll be talking a lot about Apple on today's show with Chilla and AJ - and they're IN STUDIO enjoying some Slice on Broadway pizza!
\n\n
Checking out OS X El Capitan.
\n\n
We're watching AJ teaching Sorg the magic of "apple + spacebar" command. It's magical.
\n\n
Did you know Google Photos is searchable by date?
\n\n
Is touchscreen on the horizon for Apple computers? Currently there is a third party option, but Chilla thinks it's coming from IOS soon.
\n\n
IOS has new features in notes. Like Evernote? IOS has took note. El Capitan updates will make notes more useful.
\n\n
Apple Maps will be integrating transit schedules. Will you still use Google Now or another transit app?
\n\n
This looks like a clean-up year for IOS. And, it will be glorious once the kinks get fixed.
\n\n
Swift is now 2.0 and opensource!
\n\n
IOS and Mac developer programs are now the same, and include Apple Watch development.
\n\n
Ever notice your apps are huge with all the platform assets for all the things? Apps will pull for what platform you're actually using.
\n\n
Thing we just learned: 3GS replacements were still a thing until recently.
\n\n
Shout out to everyone who has all the preinstalled iPhone apps you never use in a folder just taking up space.
\n\n
Talking about Apple Watch pairing process.
\n\n
News outlets can register their RSS feed on Apple News to provide content for the Apple Watch.
\n\n
Articles without ads? Apple News is utilizing a FlipBoard approach for their news app. live.sorgatronmedia.com
\n\n
Siri gets more #GoogleNow and swipe right functionality. live.sorgatronmedia.com
\n\n
Native watch apps will help Apple Watch speed, and that's just one of the updates on the horizon.
\n\n
Battery life in Apple Watch is pretty decent. Chilla approves.
\n\n
Smart folks at #Apple have a nightstand mode for Apple Watch. It stretches the time to a sideways view so it is legible - on a nightstand.
\n\n
Mid June expectation for in-store purchase of Apple Watch. If you didn't pre-order yours, there's hope!
\n\n
Dre and Trent Reznor - Apple folks - as in, they work with Apple. Pretty Hate Machine
\n\n
Public betas of OS - a thing Apple is doing. How do you think this is going to go over with the masses?
\n\n
SHIFT KEY IS FIXED! Apple Update
\n\n
Smaller updates = less space to run IOS. Good job Apple
\n\n
Apple made an Android app "Move to IOS" - transfers your Android over to an IOS phone. Free apps get downloaded. Pay apps go to wishlist.

In-studio, breaking the 4th wall - John Chichilla (@chilla) and Doug Derda (@douglasderda)
\n\n
\n
Doug is a featured daddy blogger in an article about his writing at douglasderda.com and it's a walk down memory lane back to PodCamp and the budding friendship that has blossomed for him and Sorg.
\n
"Daddy, your friends are on TV." Thanks to Chromecast, Doug generally watches the show on TV at home with his son.
\n
The awesome thing of the week:\nChilla: Everypost (everypost.me) - It lets you cross-post across Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, LinkedIn, tumblr and Dropbox. The boys talk comparison to Constant Contact, Hoot Suite, Tweet Deck and Radiant 6.\nSorg: MindMeld (http://www.expectlabs.com/mindmeld/) - It identifies key concepts and meanings in conversation and helps organize thoughts.\nSpoon: Shoebox (shoebox.ancestry.com) - Turns your phone into a scanner to help with your family history search.
\n
Tip of the Week: Buy the Family Tree Maker (Nova Development) (@$75.00 value) which gives 6-month access to records via Ancestry.com for free and it updates your account online. Listen to the show for additional tips.
\n
The Pono music player (Kickstarter with Neil Young). Is it a trend for music connoiseurs? Or is there more to it?
\n
Shoutout to the official Sorgatron Media pizza sponsor - Slice on Broadway (sliceonbroadway.com). Check them out!
\n
iPad 2 finally killed off by Apple. It's been replaced with a Retina display model though.
\n
The Google is down. The Google is down. Hangout, chat and spreadsheets sustained an outage yesterday. Are we "that" dependent on technology?
\n
Android Wear! How will it stack up to other wearable tech? (We're looking at you Pebble.)
\n
Things to look forward to in the not too distant future: Ted X, Build Conference, and Microsoft announcement for new Office - with (wait for it) first release for iPad?
\n
Despicable Me banana fart gun - a great motivational tool for potty training, not so great for business calls.
