My latest video where I tell my story of working on a food truck and how it took me 13 years to see myself on TV.

A Guided Tour of iPhone 16 & iPhone 16 Pro
Sheng Wang is one of the most underrated comedians and I was absolutely surprised he was in Apple’s iPhone 16/16 Pro walkthrough. So happy for his success.
★End of the Road: An AnandTech Farewell
Ryan Smith of Anandtech:
It is with great sadness that I find myself penning the hardest news post I’ve ever needed to write here at AnandTech. After over 27 years of covering the wide – and wild – world of computing hardware, today is AnandTech’s final day of publication.
I haven’t read Anandtech regularly in years but I wouldn’t be into tech today if it weren’t for Anandtech. It is hard to believe now, but I was a PC guy back in the late 1900’s/turn of the century. I read the site for CPU, GPU, and other PC hardware component reviews.
Luckily, all of the site’s content will remain online even after the site winds down.
★Kendrick Lamar Confirmed as Super Bowl 2025 Halftime Performer
Speaking of Super Bowl halftime shows:
Kendrick Lamar will perform at the 2025 Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime show, Roc Nation, Apple Music, and the NFL announced on Sunday.
I guess Drake is not watching the Super Bowl this year.
★In Living Color Halftime Show
From the NFL.com website, 100 greatest game changers.
In 1992, FOX decided to air a live episode of “In Living Color,” its hit comedy sketch show starring Jim Carrey and the Wayans Brothers (among others) to compete with halftime programming on CBS, which was airing the game. The “In Living Color” episode drew over 20 million viewers, and sparked changes to the Super Bowl halftime show moving forward. The following year, for Super Bowl XXVII, Michael Jackson gave an epic concert performance – and the halftime show has been a cultural phenomenon and mass media extravaganza ever since.
I had NO idea In Living Color forced the NFL to step up its Super Bowl halftime show.
★OAK flyers are mistakenly going to SFO
Earlier this year, Oakland International Airport renamed itself to San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport. Now people are showing up to SFO thinking they are at OAK.
“I fail to see the confusion. …. It clarifies to the world that OAK is on the San Francisco Bay. It does not confuse and leads to more nonstop option choices at the airport,” he said during a Port of Oakland public meeting. “This is not about San Francisco. We’re not trying to confuse or copy them.”
I saw this coming from a mile away. I love the Bay Area and have flown out of all three major airports. Oakland did not need to do this.
