Now I've seen everything.

Hey, we're recording the podcast.

Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is...

More like somewhere!

For September 16, 2025.

My name is Bernie Burns sitting right over there.

She has not seen everything. It's Ashley Burns ahead of Ashley, everybody. There's so much still to see. I'll put a bounty on that one. If anyone can tell me what that drop is from, I will send you a free t-shirt. I'll give you a code so you can go purchase a free t-shirt. First person who can do that. It's impossible to see everything. As we've made clear over time, backlogs are ever expanding, including the diplomat. Yeah, before we talk about that, really quickly, I could do a little about housekeeping from yesterday. I did not say thank you to Logan Dean, who did yesterday's morning somewhere shout when I was editing the podcast

I realized that and I thought oh I'll fix that I'll put it in the description I also didn't put it

in the description so thank you Logan Dean for yesterday's morning somewhere shout if you want to add a

shout you can go to shouts at morning somewhere what do you think the chance at rush d't

what do you think uh the chances are that Logan Dean is Gen X why Logan Dean is Gen, I see what you see, Gen X. Left off of all the lists. I thought you're making a Wolverine reference or something, Logan. Yeah. I knew a kid named one of my good friends from high school, named their kid Logan. But I don't think they were a comic book fan, but I thought that was kind of interesting. Yeah. I also had a friend who named their kid, LaStat.

Yeah, okay, that's a choice. That's a choice. I feel like that, that's, is that what is a nominative determinism? Right? That kid has no choice but to grow up weird. Oh, I see what you're saying. Like manifesting, but on a, like, lifetime scale. Yes. Yeah, kind of like when you're driving in the car with, say, someone, like, for instance,

your wife, and they just say out of the clear blue sky for no reason whatsoever, it's been a long time since we had a hard drive fail. Why did you say that in the car today? I was thinking about it because I was thinking about how we trust things to the cloud, right? For example, we've got a lot of archives of things in the cloud.

And I was thinking about this in relation to... how we trust things to the cloud, right? For example, we've got a lot of archives of things

in the cloud. And I was thinking about this in relation to our digitization of physical media

project where we're trying to build our own digital library of stuff, right? Because we want to

protect the stuff. But then we're so used to trusting things to the cloud because there's,

there's like an emotional warm safety blanket to the idea that the cloud can keep it safe.

Interesting.

Right?

If I put it in the cloud, it will be safe because Amazon is probably going to take better

care of their hard drives or something
