0:00.0	Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason
0:06.8	DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame.
0:16.4	Welcome to Grumpy Old Geeks, I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister.
0:20.3	I have some good news today, Brian. Do you? Yes, I've actually got great news. I can see again.
0:26.0	Oh, I thought we had gotten some massive donation or something and I could quit my side hustle.
0:30.4	Oh, no, no, no. You have to keep your side hustle for now. I have to keep mine as well. But

1:23.4	We have a little bit of follow up. Somebody wrote us, but didn't give us their name.
1:28.3	But you were having a trouble trying to print PDF in Windows. Remember? So that great hack that I had.
1:33.8	Well, getting the whole screen, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that cool hack that works great on Mac wasn't
1:37.6	doing it for you in Windows. But apparently you just make sure you have Microsoft Print to PDF
1:42.3	listed under printers and scanners and Bob's your uncle. Okay. I will check that out because I think
