There's these two jerks who do the morning show in that post that give you a couple instructions on how do I, you know, qualify for those tickets. Do as those idiots instruct and you're good.
I'm just gonna cut in here and say.
One, not two. The teenager behind.
Actually it's the one where I'm talking into a fan. Yeah, it's two idiots. You're right.
The teenager behind hundreds of swatting attacks pleads guilty to federal charges. This has a central Florida connection. You might remember Alan Fillion earlier this year was arrested in Extra dieded here to Seminal County as the suspect who had been you know, via computer calling various law enforcement agencies, schools, places of worship and whatnot, and threatening violence, causing a huge police response. In each case, more than three hundred and seventy five of them. He pled not guilty to
the state charges. However, he got hit with the federal charges. He pleaded guilty to those. He's gonna end up going bye bye for a long time.

Looks like the deal that direct TV had pitched to acquire the struggling Dish network has fallen through. The bondholders from Dish rejected the debt exchange deal.

I told you probably at this point a few months ago that twenty three and meter, the genetic testing company, was not doing so well because the demand for that service has dropped, and we got into the whys of that, and well, it sounds like that was accurate.

to use it, that will analyze incoming phone conversations for scams. Now, we're all used to seeing a scam alone come in sometimes just when the phone's ringing, you know, if it's a number that's really not in your frequently called or your rolodex or whatever. This will now analyze and look for keywords that are used by various phone scammers, and it'll alert you actually during the call, should you decide to take one of these calls.
Oh, it'll say things like car warranty suspected.
Yeah, they'll say suspected scam. So that that's kind of a new if you don't mind them listening for those keywords. I personally would have a problem with that. Keaves dropping on your calls.
I have a problem with all AI. Sorry.
We know if you utilize Google Maps and you have places that you frequently used the maps for, it's going to start deleting history older than three months, start disappearing from your location history. That may be good or bad news on your situation, is shutting down Free V, the
free ad supported streaming television service. That content has already been migrated over to Prime Video, and new episodes of the free V shows that you might have been watching will be available to people who don't pay for Prime. The Free V will be phased out in the coming weeks, so that's going to be disappearing as an option. Amazon is targeting retail rivals Shine, Timu and the TikTok Shop with a new deeply discounted storefront that sells a wide

The mobile only experience debut yesterday in the Amazon App and has everything from fashion accessories to home goods plus close and electronics, all under twenty dollars. Just time for the holidays.
