We also debate why private is not the default option and actually invites user error.<\/p>\n<p>From there, we jump into some cell-phone-battery myth-busting. (For the record, we all get angry at one time or another.)<\/p>\n<p>Then, a Russian spy ship is hovering around the transatlantic cables. Comrades, we are flattered, but you can download the podcast on your favorite platforms, no need to launch a ship \u2014 it is 2021, after all.<\/p>\n<p>Following that tongue-in-cheek story, we head to the UK for a look at PayPal and its new embrace of cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p>To close things out, we discuss the new robots Elon Musk and Tesla are pondering.<\/p>\n<p>If you liked what you heard, please consider subscribing and sharing with your friends.
