Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason

DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame.

Welcome to Grumpy old geeks, I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister and it's like the whole

last year has not even happened. Mask mandates are back, travels a pain in the ass again,

my Christmas office party has been canceled. Yeah. Christmas is canceled. Just like the old

day. Just like the old days, just like a year ago. Thanks everybody. All right. Okay.

The FAA got some follow up here is giving Bezos and Branson. It's last astronaut wings. So

initially we heard they were not getting them because you know they just basically took a joy

flight. But they are going to give them to them. They're going to give it to Bezos, Branson as well

as William Schatner. And then they're going to stop the program completely and that'll be it for

wings. Good because it seems like every two seconds there's shoving somebody up in the new

the new rocket. Yep. The Bezos rocket, the Dildo. So it's just like we're just tired of this.

We're not going to get them out anymore. We're going to save them for the real astronauts.

Yeah. Yeah. That'd be nice. So there you go. They get their wings. And Mercedes Benz kind of got

their wings. They have approval to drive their quote unquote autonomous vehicle in Germany.

To level three. Okay. So called level three. Our technique called it a so-called level three.

I'm like, ooh, nice dig. Nice dig. Now is it really being given approval to drive if it only

functions on pre-map geofence closed access highways and only it only goes up to 37.

Which gets your ass booted off the auto bond real fast. So yeah, not so much. I mean, this is the

kind of system in which it will work a pre-mapped geofence closed access highway.

Yes, exactly. Yes. I do have that. I call them hot wheels.

I might always jump the track. But yeah, I mean, it's a start, I guess.
