This week, Marques, Andrew, and David discuss everything from the rebranding of Google Bard to the Cybertruck. And of course it gets philosophical as the question of "What is a photo?" was brought up again by a Samsung exec. Plus, we start a brand new season of trivia so hopefully you caught the finale earlier in the week. Enjoy!

    Imagine showing photo evidence on court and the opposing lawyer rejects it with "Photo isn't real."

    Andrew at 27:07 "You're manually breathing." I was working and had to stop for a break
  • @brosephjooks
    Just wanted to say that I appreciated Adam's dad joke after Ellis said "it's a meta decision" at 30:07
  • @Mobik_
    - You can't take photos inside our Samsung facilities... - What is a photo?!
  • @Artytanium
    I love it when you guys just go off the rails. David and Ellis were so stressed about what is a photo and then there's Andrew cracking jokes and teasing David hahaha never change guys
  • @jchill1996
    "We're not taking photos, we're living life" is iconic haha
  • @katisotabe
    “You’re now manually breathing”🤣🤣

    27:05 That Do it! part was the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.. The wait, the tone, the slight hesitation, the delivery were incredibly good I laughed outloud multiple times. Thank you Ellis..
  • @waelnd1
    Marques is much more relaxed than the previous trivia episode. Refreshingly relaxed 😊

    Brain: interprets mix of colours as white and magenta Ellis: Let's go fill Moomin valley with crime!

    The photo not photo debate reminded me of the "ceci n'est pas une pipe" artwork form Magritte 🇧🇪 (1929) where the painting is just a drawing of a pipe with a writing that says "this is not a pipe". Because it's actually a 2D drawing representation of a pipe....
  • @TeenieTinyTina
    Didn't realize that youtube color thing was being tested on random people. I got that the other day and was like "who the hell thought of this"
  • @treasuren
    You went from "No such thing as a photo" to "Commit crimes" real quickk
  • Hey. Philosopher here. I've never researched the topic. But if you're interested. You can watch me postulate on photos... A photo is real insomuch as it is an accurate representation of a moment in time. Everyone has a different perspective of the moment and each lense, sensor, person, or film has a different reproduction of that moment in time. But no matter what. That moment was captured. And the quality of the photo can then be assessed. More post processing brings that photo further away from the original. And/or sometimes depending on the photographer they can edit the photo so that it looks even closer to the way the photographer saw the moment from their perspective. But no matter which way you process the photo. There once was a moment in time that was captured and that is the essence of a photo.

    Why is the YouTube thumbnail color sorting a thing before being able to sort your YouTube Music playlists by artist, title, etc. Very backwards priorities on YouTube/Google's part

    This is the notification I wanted. UK, it's the weekend, and the Waveform is my start! :).
