0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome to the LifeHacker podcast for August 1st. Today we are going to be talking about making tough decisions, lying on your resume, and the health benefits of personal rituals and how you can create them for yourselves. We're also going to be answering your questions about ditching cable, hooking up tons of monitors to your laptop, and finding a career that you love. And as always, we'll be going through your favorite tips and downloads with the week, so |
0:22.1 | let's get started. I'm Adam Dachis. I'm Adam Dachis. I'm here with Alan Henry. Hey, Alan. What's going on? |
0:53.0 | And Thoran Klasowski. Hello. Hi guys. We are in one of those |
0:58.7 | I guess usual summer weeks where we don't have a lot of news. So we can take this one leisurely |
1:04.6 | and and just slowly make our way through it. So I guess to get started, Alan, you want to tell us a little bit about these individual |
1:15.6 | app permissions that Android 4.3 is going to allow? |
1:18.6 | Yeah, it's pretty cool, actually. |

2:06.2 | but sometimes it's just about gobbling up data, you'll be able to turn them off individually now, |
2:10.7 | which is pretty neat. If you do have 4.3, there's actually a little app that somebody created |
2:17.4 | that will get you right to that |
2:19.8 | settings page because it's kind of hidden. But once 4.3 gets out to all devices that are going |
