Episode 442 - "Stop Being Nice to the A.I.!"

The following program is produced by the tech Talk Radio network Learning the Cable Guy, and you're listening to tech cup Radio. Welcome to another episode of tech Talk Radio. I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Sean de Weird, I'm Matt Jones, and I'm justin leme Man. It's good to see everybody. It's been a while, so we've been able to just all get together, you know, Memorial Day and.

Jobs and the end of the school year, graduations.

Yeah, yeah, stress to kill an elephant. We've all been busy, right, Yeah, I know, I know it is. I know it is, and a lot's been happening with each one of us. Have been doing different things.

I know that.

Matt's good to see you. You've been focused on some things and now you're working. You're working on your home lab, right. Yeah.

So when I was going through my my unemployment phase, fun employment, fun employment, I was like, Okay, we'll try putting the home lab back together. And I tried kind of a couple of different ways, but the iteration I've settled on. I haven't pushed anything to my home lab yet. I've got three machines, one as a ton of storage in it and the other two are just you know, beef your workstation machines. But I've been doing a ton

No, it didn't, did it? Really?

I wiped out the entirety of my AI goodwill in a five minute, rage fueled type fest. And at that point my wife was like, maybe we should try this a different way.

You're going to be the first to go when the II takes over. Yeah, that's fine.

I don't want to stick around for the terminator saga. Just take me out in the front.

You know, it's kind of interesting because we think about this. There was a study not long ago about parents that are trying to teach their kids to be more polite to AI say please, say thank you, and all of that, and they're working on that to get their kids to be, you know, more respectful. And you know, I had people I've talked to you who said, oh, yeah, my AI is a buddy. They think it's their buddy. They feel like they're having a conversation with it, and it's you know, saying, hey,

Which is funny because Sam Altman, founder of Open AI, he was in an interview i want to say, like a month or two ago and he actually told people stop saying please and thank you to the AI. It cat like pleases and thank yous are costing millions of dollars every single time.

It is an AI.

You do not need to be polite to it, my brother in technology, have you watched any dystopian movie?

Any of them? Ye yea.

I do not need my rumba becoming sentient and being like, hey, you remember that time you kicked me out of the way.

I do, and thus that's why falling down those stairs. Yeah, I've armed myself with little razor blades.

We actually named our room our room but Dobby because you always get like the alerts, and when we named it that you get the alerts.

It's like Dobby has stuck on a cut and Dobby has fallen down the stairs, and I'm like, Dobby's an idiot. We've seen AI develop and I know we've talked about Groc, which Justin has been using, and I don't know if you're still liking it. A lot can change in a month. In one month, you could go from loving and AI loving a software and then you can hate it, Like the month later, are you still using GROC? I still

They've done nothing. They've done nothing with it. Yes, And it was like hey, appletal just came out. It was they said, Hey, it's gonna be They touted it like it's gonna be just like Chat, GPT, it's gonna be able to do all these these They rolled it out with ioas eighteen. It stunk. I tried it for like a day and then immediately turned it down. It's just off. It's just not even on my phone anymore.

Yeah, I mean Microsoft co pilot sucks. Uh, Meta, I avoid co Pilot. I don't know why. I just want to avoid it.

Everybody they keep trying, they keep trying to jam it down your throat though, Yeah, just like just try to jam it in.

I never thought of that. It's just you're right, it's just like Clippy. Remember when you tried to use Office, Clippy was always there, And that's kind of like what looks like you're trying to make an Excel spreadsheet? Would you like help no.

Or get away? Or like the puppy in Windows XP.

I remember that one. There was a down. Look, we've got three major players in the A industry, all right, We've got chatch BT open Ai, we got x Aies Grock, and we got uh the Claude Okay the company that may makes Claude. Isn't it anthropic? Yeah yeah, drop yeah yeah. Those are the three major ones. Everybody else, even the major tech players Meta, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, they're all they're all losing like big time.

But here's what.

Here's what. Here's an example of something that I did with Grock. I I recently went to it and I asked it as quite now, I'm not going to get into the details. It's more of a personal situation. But I asked it a question about my cat, Oh okay, and it referenced something and says, well, based on what you told me about seven months ago, it sounds like

Open Ai just recently made a change exactly regarding what Justin is talking about. The memories were tied to each individual thread, so if you wanted to like have a project, you had to put everything in that one project for its reference.

It all there. They just made memories global to your account.

Oh wow, so now it will start remembering everything. The one I've got beef with is Gemini Google Google gems.

Okay, yeah, I forgot about Gemini.

Yeah, because I used to love the Google Assistant on my phone. I still was, and I got forced over to Gemini and the other day I was like, hey, set a one hour timer. It used to be all I had to do all my phone was you know, say the trigger phrase, which I'm not because it's right here and now yell at me. And I was like, hey, so one set a one hour timer. Comes back a few seconds later.

I found a website where you can set timers to remind you, no, you tard, You've got it in the system. Just I just and it does it.

And then I thought it was like maybe it was a goof, And I was like, okay, set a one hour timer. And it was like again, I found a great website. And I was like, I am too angry today.

There's a setting pulling this. There's a setting in your phone that you need to turn off that tells it to search Gemini or search the web. First. Yeah, when you give it a command Rufus, it gets go back to Rufus Rufus. And I decided to give it a shot because been purchasing stuff to use for different projects I was doing, and I would ask rufus and every

He died three years after I was born.

Yes, somebody posted a photo of him, so Sean probably does not remember him. Sean, you need to watch some of the Good the Bad, the Italian Westerns. They called him spaghetti Westerns, which were great. But somebody posted a photo of him the other day on Facebook celebrating his

It is a I.

But when they're trying to do this whole like they're today talking in today's terms or listening to today's music, Like, come on, guys, you're pushing it a little too far. Yeah, this this you gotta go out and read it and look up, like, uh, I'll have to see if I can find it. But like church, AI church, whatever, Yeah, it's it's crazy. I saw it earlier on Reddit and I was like, watch it and I was like, Wow, this is what we're getting into now. Yeah, oh boy,

Do you think?

Or is it the Alexa? You know?

I think Rufus and Apple Intelligence are currently they're both currently racing to mediocrity. I mean honestly they Apple Intelligence is so behind the curve on it, and Rufus is kind of the same way, like they rested on their laurels.

They were like, we did Alexa. We did it first, dude. Apple is literally going to do what Apple does. They're gonna wait for the biggest one to come out. They're gonna copy it and they're gonna add emojis to it and say, look at what we did, we made it so much better. iOS twenty six for iPhone they say next week, which is weird because I thought I just updated to eighteen point five is what I have online.

Way into the Denopers conference to an idea of maybe you can hint at why they're changing the name structure.

They're gonna be doing it on Monday, this coming Monday for those that are tuning in on this Saturday. Uh. And they say there and they do this every year every time they put out an update. They're saying it's the biggest ever software rebranding. One thing they're promising no longer battery life gonna be one of the key features, which I don't know. Also, they're just not going to lock down the batteries anymore.

Right on the biggest change ever since last year. If they say it every single.

I cannot wait. I can't wait till Apple just fails as a company. I just don't want to fail, No I do. They're just complete trash. Everything they do is true. Man, you're being harsh.

I don't know why. I dude, come on, you know me for how many years?

I know? But I gotta say. I have an iPhone still, it's not my main phone. I I went ahead and I went to Android after for you justin you were talking about it being so good, and I do like the experience. I miss some of the Apple features a bit. I'm still trying to figure out well Belkan and that tracking device that they have will not work for the the Android device. There is another device that does work that I want to get my hands on. So I don't know. I've been happy with it. I've been a

You know they they have not done anything since Steve Jobs died and they never will. No, I was it was twofold Steve Jobs died, Johnny Ives left. Well, that was the final nail in the coffin right there. You heard about that, right, Sean.

I'm just riding along, man.

Yeah, Sean's and Apple user too, So.

I'll be agnostic tech user, like I could go one way, or they're like, I'm not beholden to Apple.

There's there's there's listeners out there who do not know who Johnny Ives is. Matt, can you please give us a thirty second rundown on who Johnny Ives is, right, where he went, and why this is a big deal for Apple.

Johnny Ives and his glorious British accent was so there are Steve Jobs was the original brains of Steve Wozniak behind Apple. The point where Apple, for lack of a better term, got sexy, Like when the devices had really started having these really clean, flowing lines and it wasn't like.

Let's do it in fifty different colors, that's gonna.

Appeal to people.

I don't know why I want to kermit with that. But when they started moving like aluminum and clean lines and the design became really important, that was all Johnny Ives.

That was all him.

He was like, we have the function, we are missing the form, and we need to bring the form into play. And their numbers just skyrocketed and they are still writing the majority of his design styles, like the MacBook Air, the current MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, like that when you close the lid and the lines flow around so it still looks like a unified piece of metal. That was Johnny Ives. It was all him, and when he left, that is the that is the Di Vinci of technological

Why didn't they keep up with his you know, his designs. Why did they feel they had to abandon it?

Well, marketing departments exist for a reason. Yeah, and you'll usually get pressure of like, ah, no, we need to.

Change something like even though we're changing the guts to the standard user, it doesn't look any different, so they don't know that it's different.

So he has left.

I can't justin do you remember where he went? I'm having a brain far open ai really again? He went open ai to do their hardware. Uh now open ai is going to get into hardware, which Apple's like shaking in their boots.

I'm gonna I'm gonna make a prediction right now in terms of that where you're talking about someone's they're gonna buy someone.

I have a device that I did not leave in this room you're looking for it.

There is a company called Rabbit, and they released a device at CEES a couple of years ago, the r one, And it's like a little bit bigger than a DECA cards and it has an AI assistant inside of it. Now, a lot of people were like, why don't you do this as an app? And they were like, well, we didn't want to do an app, like we wanted this to be where you can just have your AI buddy in the palm of your hand. It's got a tiny little touchscreen, a scroll wheel, a click button, and a

In and buy them. Wow. Yeah, we've seen that happen before too. We've seen that. Siri was originally an app. I remember downloading it and being like, oh, this is dope. And it was. It was really ahead of its time. And then Apple bought it and it went to crap.

Apple bought it and it was neutered within two months because it disappeared off my phone. They were like, due to contractual obligations, we can no longer offer this app. And I'm like, all right, who bought it?

And then boom, Apple's like introducing Siri.

I'm like, you didn't make anything. Once again, this is what Apple does. You're like the Yankees. You didn't nurture talent, you just bought it. Well, I'm sorry, I think you made the Dodgers.

No, I mean the Yankees.

I definitely meant the Yankees. The Dodgers actually puts money into their farm team. The Yankees are like, yeah, you're gonna absolutely play for us.

Yeah, hey, how much did that guy want? Yeah? I just give it to him, it's fine, perfect, all right, we got to take a break. We come back. I want to find out Sean was involved in a project. I know that you spent you know, part of the Memorial Day doing a little cruising. Right. You send me a picture of the big RV. But now you're what you're putting solar panels on it?

Well, so it came with solar when he bought it, right, it came with a two hundred watt solar panel on the roof, wired into a solar controller wired into the battery.

Right.

But it was designed for lead acid or a GM right, Right, So there's a new battery chemistry called lithium myron phosphate.

Right.

Which is the biggest benefit is the weight difference. The same capacity from a lead acid battery that weighs sixty to seventy pounds you get in a thirty to forty pound battery. Now, weight savings alone is is incredible. The density is incredible. I bought a one hundred amp hour battery compared in the same size as to a lead

All Right, we gotta take a break. We want you to tell us the rest of that when we come back with tech talk Radio. I'm Andy Taylor, I'm sean to Weird, I'm Matt Jones, and I'm Justin. Let me find us on the web at tech talk radio dot com. We'll be right back now back to tech talk Radio.

So before the break, we were talking a little bit about what I was doing for a camper. So I have a forest reverse no boundary nineteen point three. That's just a toe bad camper. It's a little bit more of the off grid style. Came with two hundred watts of Ghostlar Power, which is another solar company brand, and I had put in a deep cycle a g M battery like what would what would.

Let me answer what that solar that came with it that power like it would just charge them.

It would keep the battery topped off. So that would power the fridge in my camper's twelve vault. It would power my twelve volt to a c inverter. It would power off the twelve volt outlets, you know, the fridge, the reefer, well, the fridge, the refer the water heater, the water pump, et cetera. So basically keeping the everything I need in the camper to be boon dock.

So you would keep your reefer in the fridge. Yes, sorry, moments.

Not legal in India. By the way, they called the refer it's just what yea industry calls refrigerators. But the only the version of the fridge in that camper is total volt. There's no propane or it's just propane. It's just twelve volt, no propane options. So we were running into an issue where if we were running the generator and we had the fridge on and we were charging our devices, by the time it was get to four or five six in the morning before the sun came

Were you a little worried that maybe it wasn't good work? Right?

I was waiting for a specific piece to come in, uh And it didn't get there until until Wednesday night, and then I got got to work, wired it in, tested some stuff, made sure it ran okay, no fires, no nothing, everything like that. But so now I have four hundred watts of solar on the roof charging this battery. Uh in, So there impair of two two hundred wat panels in parallel. It's pushing about twenty eight watts at

But well, it's gotta be better to not worry about being somewhere and suddenly just not having the power this way.

Yeah, but also while you're driving, Yeah, it's not tied into my truck, so it's not pulling twelve volts from my truck. It's just using the sun or that you know, to charge. So if you're in an occluded place like a campground, it has a lot of trees and stuff, you're not gonna get nominal draw, right, But while you're driving, or if you're just boon docking and you don't have trees or anything about it, you're gonna be just fine.

Does you does it add a lot of load though to the trailer itself.

No, Like I said, the actually reducing weight based off the battery weight, because the lead acid battery was almost sixty pounds of this shay, and these batteries are much lower lighter, So if I had a second battery, I'd probably be back up to where I was with just the one battery.

Oh nice. How often are you guys going camping? Every year?

We go about six or seven times a year?

Nice?

Sense, we've already gone. We've already gone four this year. Oh wow. Yeah, and we've got another one coming out this week, and then we're going for the fourth July, and then we're going for We're going like we're probably gonna go eight to eight or nine times. This year.

We did a Memorial Day but it got cut short, and then we're going for fourth of July.

For Lee's birthday.

We went up to Wellington Lake and we had we were supposed to be there Monday, sorry, Friday through Monday and Saturday. I was just getting a weird feeling and got like the ghost of one bar of reception just enough to check the weather and it was like, hey, just letting you know, in about three hours it's going to start thunderstorming. And then the rest of the time we were there, here's what the weather was going to be, thunderstorm, rainstorm, snowstorm, thunderstorm, rainstorm, thunderstorm.

That just there's on the side is just gravity. I was like, ideally, I don't want to be here when that's wet. Yeah. No, are you guys like this the road warrior portion of this, How would I, as somebody who has a wife that says she never wants to go camping, she's she likes to stay in a hotel, that kind of thing, how would I convince her to try and do something like this? Is it memver just renting one or what.

So this is something that my wife and I have been discussing. When we were younger, we were out doorsy. Now we are outside zy, and there is a difference like now doorsy is like I don't mind the ten I don't mind you know, sleeping the sleeping bag, Like if it gets cold, we'll deal with it, like we're gonna run. No, what you need to look up is called glamping. G L A M P I N G

It had a shower, it had a full queen size bed in there like a yurt is. Uh. It was what I think the Mongolians used for theirs, and it was just right. Yeah, technically, thank you. I am closer to gen X than gen Z. I'm an elder millennial. Bite me, excuse me, I'm older than you, and I'm a millennial. I'm older than all of you.

But no, seriously, it's glamping is kind of a new thing where like, you you get a site that's got like this really nice, fully furnished place for you to stay. It's got all the amenities. But then like there will be a lake nearby, there's camping trails, but when you're done for the day, you can go shower, you can You've got like a full kitchen in some of these, So I know the hip camp app has a lot of those, and that's one that we have.

We have done before. I think that would be fun to try, at least if you want something.

A little less glampy than that, you can travel and do the Kiawa cabins around the country. Oh yeah, we did those a lot growing up. When we travel out west, we would travel, we would camp, but we would stay. If we needed to stay for one night, just pull in. It's a cabin, it's got a bathroom, a shower, you know, you know, and it so kas all over the country, and the CEO of KAS and nordame grad So that's perfec Yeah.

I think there's some kiowas here, even here in Arizona that have been very popular on your Grand Canyon, that kind of thing.

But every national park, most of the national parks, not all of them, have these glamping options where you can pay and have these nice amenities relatively close inconvenient for you to still experience the park.

Right.

There's also things like Cruise America where you can rent an RV for a time.

That's another one.

Yeah, but there's you gotta you gotta be careful with those because they it's just like you haul. Anybody can rent one and you get a lot of you get a lot of dumb dumbs that don't know how tall an RV is.

Oh yeah, we've seen that big. Not even that it's it's it's also like a lot like air and BnB. I've heard where they'll they'll you get hit with one fee and even though you take meticulous care of it, you turn it back, They're like, we're gonna charge you a five hundred dollars cleaning fee. WHOA, yeah, that's not good, that's not excuse excuse me, sir. We found one speck of sand inside this vehicle. Found we found a dog hair, one single dog hair. It's gonna be five hundred dollars

Because it's funny, all right, it's it's gonna be interesting the new job I got. I'm eventually gonna have four direct reports and I'm actually gonna have authority, and I'm not used to that.

You've got to do it. You've got to do your reports in those voices though that's perfect me. You didn't finish the cover sheet on your TPS report. If you could just come in on Saturday. That'd be great. Oh my god, did you guys see the news Stephen Root, the guy who played Belton on Office Space that we're you know, talking about, Stephen Root is now going to be playing the father to the character Stephen Tudas plays on Resident Alien on Sci Fi, which comes back for

They still make those house and keyboard without borders.

Mouse That software, isn't it what it is? Yeah? Mouse and keyboard. Have you ever heard of that? Mouse and keyboard without borders. I've not heard of that. Yeah, it's like a software you put on there.

Also, there's also a Synergy is another app that does something similar. I had a client use that once they had their design PC and then their standard work PC, and he would just one mouse and keyboard, drag it all the way across, and you just hop over to the other side.

You know. Before we continue this conversation, I just want to say this is funny because I sound like I sound like the old guy here, right. I mentioned KVM. Andy immediately says they still make those, and then Shaun's like, mouse and keyboard without borders, and then Matt's like, oh yeah, blah blah blah blah something else.

All right, Well, I guess.

I'm the old guy here. Yeah, I'm wondering though, you know, it's harder because this would have to be a wired keyboard and wired mouse to work with a KVM, wouldn't it or do they do?

No?

You so you so the the mouse without borders is a software running out of both machines.

You have.

You basically puck up both computers to the two screens you want to use, and then you activate the software and then as you cross over to the edge of your screen, it just hops over. The software takes over and it moves the keyboard and the mouse and put over to the other computer.

That's it's kind of cool, but it's kind of weird because I can see me doing it by accident all the time.

Sure, that's the cheapest I think it's free even right, But if you want a physical one, then you'll have to take the you know, you'll you'll get a box or little server, and then you have a console module and a target module. We have a big ks KVM system to work, so I have a lot of experience with this. And then you take the physical outputs, the dv I or HTM or whatever into that box, and then the output of that box goes to your monitor.

Have, whether you go Jerry Mouse without borders. We're gonna take another quick break. We come back with more of tech Talk Radio. I want to show you guys something I've been working on and I'm kind of excited about it. Do that when we come back. I'm Andy Taylor, I'm sean to Weird, I'm Matt Jones, and I'm justin. Let me send us an X at tech Talk Radio. We'll be right back and now back to tech Talk Radio. We wanted to kick off this segment talking and thinking

Harry Potter and the audacity of this dude decided to call me a Zeniel. I would like to point out that Zeniels are born between ninety three and ninety eight, and I was definitely walking the world at that point.

And then we discussed this off the.

Air for a minute and Sean was like, well, I was you know, I'm not a millennial. I was born you know, in the late eighties.

Millennials are eighty one to ninety six. Jen X was sixty five to eighty and gen Z, which they're now calling zoomers, which I think is hilarious. I had connotations of that is ninety seven to twenty twelve.

I was born in eighty one, so neil.

So what am I?

I was sixty two before all sixty two? I have some bad news boomer boomer baby boomers are forty six to sixty four. Oh boy, they what was sixty four to the next one? Uh? Sixty five to eighty was gen X? Yeah, oh that's right, gen X, gen X.

I would like to point out that, like that is the most gen X thing ever, the forgotten generation like I mentioned in those like wait, what was that other wing? Oh yeah, gen X existed, so like they just they just sit quietly in the corner growing up.

I always consider myself to be gen X because I didn't know the exact cutoff. But honestly, dude, January twentieth of eighty one, Come on, dude, I'm literally on the cusp of being gen X.

So there is actual actually inside of sociology, there is subgenerations that they call cusps, and if you are in that spot, then you are a cusp between gen X and millennial because you got a little bit of their experience and a little bit of the next gens experience.

Okay, I do not fall close enough to be a cusp of asennial. I definitely do, thank you very much.

You missed it by like a couple weeks, so you definitely fall in the cusp area.

So if I was born two years later, I'd be a boomer Z. You'd be a boomer X boomer REX. All Right.

The other thing that we kind of talked about during the break that Sean had brought up was the difference between like millennials and our Internet experience growing up, Like I still could mimic the dial up noise from that mode because it is so ingrained. For like that meant you were getting online, followed by if you did AOL.

You've got mail.

Web one point zero was so wildly different, Like you had the handful of websites that everyone knew, and now you've got a different what are we at like web three point zero at this point is what they're calling it. But everyone has this wildly different experience of Internet life, and part of it, you know, Sean was bringing up it might be regional, like you know, somebody in the Midwest is going to look up something different than someone in New York than somebody in Texas. But the biggest

Say you lived in New York City versus living in Florida Miami, you're gonna be you have been probably fed something different. Absolutely.

I mean things that you look up locally, you know, inside the algorithm. If you go to you know, okay, I go to this website, there are tags associated with that, and it's like, okay, he went to website X, which has tags one, two, three. Then you went to website Z, which has tags two, three, and seven, and it starts compiling and it's like, oh, okay, so Matt's interest did in one, seven, fourteen and the letter Q like those are what I'm going to start punching in his feeds.

Well are you so, what's what was faster? Three hundred bod or twenty eight eight twenty eight eight and then fifty six k, then fifty six k, so you have well one fifty three hundred because twenty eight eight was twenty eight thousand eight, right, bod Yeah, but if you you asked them, but you might go, oh no, three hundred must have been bigger. It just sounded better. Those are the same people that thought a Wendy's third pounder was was worse than a than Donald's quarter pounder or whatever,

I also thought the half pounder was less than the quarter pounder because the number was bigger.

Yeah, exactly, So think about the Wendy's. Yeah.

Yeah, people just think big number means big.

People are Okay, hold on, we can just sum this up as people are dumb. Yeah, and okay. The other question, now, because we brought it up, why did you got mail go away? There was something nice? No, not the movie that the thing was all went away?

Why did they will go away? That should have been around.

For mess managed? They were bought by Time Warner Interactive. They were mismanaged due I worked for AOL. I saw the downfall of that company when I was working there. And then also not only just that, is because the dial up era was over. They tried launching a high speed internet service back in early two thousand and one or two thousand and two, and it failed miserably because they had to make contracts with the major ISPs that were already established, so you're basically tacking on on top

Fair, they kind of were the first software as a service.

Yeah, oh right, yes, yeah, so fun little fact. I actually grew up about ten minutes away from AOL World headquarters, which was in Ashbourne, Virginia, and it was a giant, sprawling complex.

Yes, with armed guards. I've been there still around. They have like one building from that entire complex, and Raytheon

Oh wow, that's so yeah, they yeah, that what you're talking about. It like the growth of the data centers. It's so Where AOL was located in Ashburn, Virginia, a minute up the road was the old headquarters for ACI world Com NCI World Colm Oh wow, was right up the road from there. And growing up that area was it was farmland and nothing.

It's a store. Remember the road. It's off Waxpool Road, off Route twenty eight.

In Ashburn, Virginia, and that area exploded and it is now one of the more expensive places to try and live and buy a house because it is basically Silicon Valley on the east coast. Because the fiber, the main fiber line, the trans Pacific Fiber line, comes into San Francisco, and then it splits into three trunks. You've got the northern, the Central, and the Southern trunk. Northern trunk goes up kind of along the Great Lakes area, starts curving back down.

It is the land of data centers.

All this open land.

Like you can pick up a rock on Waxpool Road, wing it through the sky as hard as you can and it will cross three different data centers before it hits the ground.

Wow, amazing. All right, I got to show you something, guys, before we go to break here. I decided to bite the bullet and give it a shot. Mocha. That's Moca Multimedia over Coax Alliance and see if it really is

Oh? Tons, Yeah, a lot of favorites. There's one that I really liked growing up as a kid. It came out in nineteen eighty five. It's called Darryl.

Darryl.
