Some say that the TSP is different, others that the hosts are having a midlife crisis. All we know is that none of them is the Stig. This is another conversation on buying decisions or maybe I should say purchase rationalisation. What can we say, "things they are a changin".Autor: Toothy Saber

It's not a goodbye, but changes are coming. We had some time to reflect on the WWDC keynote and have a few thoughts to share with you. As always, we hope you enjoy this episode, and we apologize for the subpar audio quality of this one.

We have a guest with us to talk about wearable technology and its applications on health and fitness. She has a Ph.D. in physical education and is a researcher on wearables and sports performance. We have some good news and some bad news, but more importantly, what we hope is an exciting and informative conversation. Show Notes Music: The Wonder by…

If this was our last show, I think it would be a proper goodbye. There is a lot of Bromance, and that's all I'm going to say about that. We talk about the iPhone SE, its trade-offs and the possibility of an update. What was the probable …

I wanted to call this episode natural selection, but the biologist in me didn't like misusing the definition. Our last episode was about making choices, and now we are going to help to choose an iPhone. We can't just tell you what to buy…

Do you have doubts? We recorded an episode dedicated to making decisions and avoiding buyers regrets. We talk about it in context with Apple products and purchasing decisions. Accidentally it's all audio related because w…

It's time for the Apple HomePod preview, and boy do we have speculation for you. What are the main advantages and disadvantages of the HomePod from our perspective and what evolution can we reasonably expect in the future. Because we rea…

DJI launched a new drone, and we took advantage of the occasion to talk about the company. Diogo uses a drone regularly for fun and profit, and he shared is experience and personal opinion on what it's like using a quadcopter for video …

Reflexions on our podcast, how it started and how we feel about it now. It´s the real story, not the simple version we usually give. From there we have a conversation that we would typically not publish on the podcast. We talk about our life, friendship, expectations, fears, disappointments and even our pets. It´s not the Toothy Saber Podcast. It's…

If Apple represents the intersection between technology and liberal arts, then this episode is the intersection of technology, philosophy and recognizing personal bias. We started talking about all the extreme reactions related to Apple throttling older devices with degraded batteries, and end up reflecting on then, and even our own reactions. How …

Diogo has updated his audio setup, but he may not get the chance to role play Batman for the kids. Apple degraded the performance of iPhones with batteries issues, and some customers are not happy. From memories to dreams and back again. The iMac Pro is available and its fast, very fast. We watched Star Wars (no spoilers), and it's terrific. Plus, …

The inside story on the Toothy Saber AirPods review. How we did it, dealt with equipment restrictions and lessons learned. Diogo also has brand new AirPods and compares them to the Beats X. Chrismas is coming, and Diogo is going to be Batman to entertain the kids in the hospital, or so he says. I think he just wants an excuse to rappel a wall dress…

Yes its true, the iPhone X has the best display on any mobile phone available today (manufactured by Samsung). The X delights, but for some people, the transition has some difficulties, especially if you are coming from an android phone. We talk about the qualities of the display and discuss tradeoffs between sizes and form factors. It wouldn't be …

Diogo's iPhone 6S has some iOS 11 woes, but my SE is performing well. On the topic of iOS 11, the new notification and control center improved my user experience on the iPhone considerably, but I'm missing the 3D touch and haptic feedback. How I started using Opera to run away from IE but converted to Firefox in 2004 and got addicted to tabs and ex…

A short emergency podcast because Diogo couldn't wait to share this news with our listeners. Intel made a CPU with a Radeon GPU together in one package, and we can hardly believe it. Sometimes hell really freezes. Just a few weeks before the launch of the new iMac Pro it seems likely that it will use similar technology. To make our day even better,…

The iPhone X is available, and the first reviews are out. In this episode, we focus on some of the elements that make this iPhone special and reflect on what they mean for users and the future of the iPhone. The software is not quite ready for the new superstar and iOS may need a few more updates before you can thoroughly enjoy your new phone. Howe…

A recent Apple acquisition provides a glimpse of upcoming improvements to Apple Photos. Google is arguably ahead with its photos service for now, but Apple users may not have to wait long for similar capabilities. HDR photography is standard on the iPhone 8 and photo stitching software does excellent panoramas. We talk about space exploration, Nasa…

I guess the title says it all, in this episode, we talk about phone photography. We recall back in the days of terrible pictures on feature phones and the rapid evolution in last few years. The iPhone, in particular, has significant improvements year to year and is becoming a handy camera that may not replace a photographer DSLR but just might be g…

Another special episode because we have a guest. He was the first person that sent us to feedback, and as a reward, we invited him on the show. We talk about the new iPhones, our expectations for the next year, and yes, we are still talking about the name and the notch. Also, phone sizes, losing the home button and contemplating the end of physical…

The Apple Event is that time of the year when they give you an excellent presentation designed to show you their new hardware. It's a 2h marketing campaign, and it usually works, mainly because it's not just hype and the products are good. This one was one of their best and very effective, at least for us; we got lost in Apple time and are convince…

Why Jeff Cannata is right, and you should not watch trailers before the movie, except for Suicide Squad, Prometheus and Alien Covenant. For these, you should only watch the trailer. A Segway is a Segway even when it's not a Segway. And of course lots of predictions on the 2017 September Apple Keynote (recorded before the leaks). We had dinner; we h…

Now you can see how our minds work because we take a look at file management, or in my case the lack of it. Diogo and I talk about file organization preferences, directories, tags, and how acceptable it is to use your desktop for temporary or permanent storage. From Finder to Pathfinder, Spotlight and even Windows Explorer and the upcoming Timeline…

Apple is still very secretive, but we now know that the next iPhone is called D22 and can only be used by people with Ferraris. I still think it's a distraction from the real phone everyone is waiting for, the iPhone SE 2. Unread got sold again, and we finally remembered the name of a favorite app that is no more. Some popular apps like Ulysses and…

This episode is all about SEGA, so get ready for some deep cuts. I don't know much about consoles in general so we have a special guest that knows this stuff and, can speak proper English. We get shamed on this one while we cover most of…

Our take on Apple peripherals. We try to argue that the Magic Mouse shouldn't support gestures and that using a mouse a trackpad and a keyboard simultaneously makes more sense. Then we get lost on the rabbit hole of other mice and accessories like Thunderbolt peripherals. We end up time traveling and looking to the future using voice and movement r…

I complain that I haven't paid enough for Pocket Casts in return from all I got over the years. Overcast excellent advertising solution. Some of the apps that we lost and why we wish we could do more to support others (Reeder, we love you). The perceived difference between buying digital versus physical goods. Our opinions on pay to upgrade or subs…

Everything you wanted to know about macOS High Sierra. It's not really everything, just the parts that were announced in the WWDC2017 keynote. If we're going to be honest, it's mostly that but we skipped some things that we didn't care for. However, that just makes the conversation better and that's the story we're sticking with. Music: The Wonder …

Apple announced support for external GPUs and Diogo is excited. We compare the dev kit to the Razer Core and highlight the limitations of the current technology. Oh, and we got a Hulk! Show Notes Music: The Wonder by Dave DeeperAutor: Toothy Saber

The evolution of the iMac, a mouse without magic and as always, going off topic and poking fun at one another. Show Notes Music: The Wonder by Dave Deeper Photo: Tran Mau Tri TamAutor: Toothy Saber

Derailed by a bad Internet connection and lost audio, we have a long pre-show talk and the most meandering conversation yet. We had fun and hope you will too. We cover topics like how we listen to podcasts, why we changed the podcast nam…

In keeping with our tradition of confusing names and saying silly things without noticing, we talk about the new MacBook Pro relative and absolute cost, Diogo's refusal to jump ship to a Windows machine and my satisfaction with the AirPods…

We talk about our interest in Apple and digress to our first experiences with computers and how we ended up using Apple products. Music: The Wonder by Dave Deeper Photo via AppleAutor: Toothy Saber
