@PeterDiamandis Maybe thinking too small but I want to see
-separate ads, not like 50's TV where the host hawks products that might not be relevant
-music and talk segments or tracks so you can 3x only talking
-better searching, "all the podcasts Alan Alda was on"
-close-captioning
-video feeds

@Thurrottfeed For the past week, I thought my one-year-old desktop failed but TPM was just hidden by a poorly named feature in the Asus BIOS.

Personally, a disappointing #appleevent. I wanted new M1 MBP models and AirPods with built-in AirTags.

@thurrott Xcode is the only thing I can think of.

@cwoodruff I've used built-in cellular and it was a bit of an advantage when it was free (work supplied) but I wouldn't pay for it.

@scalzi Have you written anywhere how the comments are moderated? It seems a Herculean task at this scale and many sites are failing or just disable comments altogether.
