Chucks PC problems and a man breaks into a federal courthouse

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm still trying to figure out why the guy broke
into the courthouse. I haven't heard that yet. Secondly, the
last name thunder Burke not a common name, and I
haven't heard anybody ask the questions. He related we had
a famous Ohio State basketball player with the same last name.

(00:21):
That's the only other time I've ever heard that last name.
I don't know if it's family. I know that name
mid nineties, I believe m early nineties, perhaps early to
mid nineties. I think.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Thunderburg Lawrence.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yes, just wondering if it's family, I hope not.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, that's early that's early nineties, Okay.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Anyway, I was reading the Channel sixth story here about it.
Dwayne for Thunderburk, forty one years of age, one count
of burglary in connection where they break in at the
Franklin County Courthouse. Surveillance video reportedly showed the crash and
a figure later identified as thunder Burke into the courthouse
garage area, grabbed a trash can, smashed out a window
of a door to enter the building. Fire alarm was

(01:06):
also activated in initial search of the building didn't locate Funderburk.
Subsequent suite found him on a lower lower garage stairwell area,
arrested without it. Why was he breaking in though? What's
in there? I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
He sounds like he was trying to do something productive.
He spent a lot of energy. I don't know what
he accomplished.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I mean, he eventually got in the courthouse anyway, but yeah,
I'm not I'm not sure what the reasoning was for that.
That's just a weird This is a weird crime. I see.
This is what happens when I read stuff right before
I go on the air, because now I'm stuck on that.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
So it's like, I want to go. I need some money.
What are you going to rob the police precinct?

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yeah, why not.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
I'm gonna get some stolen evidence and sell it instead
of you know.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Another local news story, Giant Eagle is opening a new
location in downtown Columbus. Let me just say that, while
I think way too much energy is being spent on
downtown Columbus, it's about time that another grocery store. Oh,
I've said this for the longest time. It's down. You
keep building, you know, high end places for high end
people to live their high end lives, but there's nothing

(02:16):
for them to do, including go pick up groceries. There
is one a Kroger store down on Sycamore, which esthetically
is fairly pleasing. However, I've heard a lot of stories
of people that are just not satisfied with the store
selection service, that kind of thing. So a little competition

(02:37):
for that Kroger store would probably pick up things for
both these stores. And it's good to see something practical
like a grocery store going in. But I still think
there's way too much energy being put into downtown Columbus
with all the residential stuff. And I saw that we
have a new new housing Columbus Land Bank Houses and

(03:00):
affordable housing now being made available, but it's in Linden.
We target our efforts in the weirdest possible places in
this city. And I don't know why. The area where
the Giant Eagle is going is on Broad Street. It's
right there, right between Kosai and what is that building?

(03:22):
I keep forgetting. It looks like a castle right there
at the railroad tracks before where spaghetti warehouse used to be.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
I know what you're talking about, but I have no idea.
But there's a Kasai. It's I follow the directions.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
That's it. Yeah, there's a couple of buildings right there
that they got retail on the bottom, residential uptop, and
then there's what essentially is just a vacant lot between
the buildings and Broad Street there before you get to
Kosai if you're headed east on Broad and that is
where this giant eagle's going to go. So you know,
if you're one of the people that lives down that way,
congratulations do you? But we got to have some more

(03:57):
stuff to do in downtown Columbus. It's that I've told
the story before, taking the boys back back in the
good old days, when you know, Kapa used to be
nice and they had media nights. They still do. I'm
just not invited anymore. But I would I constantly. I
would go to the media night shows and I what
did we go see? Was it Chicago? Might have been Chicago?

(04:19):
And I took my son. I wanted to expose the
boys to, you know, something other than rap music and
rock and roll. So I took my son and we
came out and he said, you know what's terrible, there's
not even in some place you can get a sandwich
down here after you come out of the show. Yeah,
you're right. Nothing was open, nothing available, even the tim
Hortons that was at Broad and High at that time.

(04:40):
Tim Hortons was a twenty four to seven operation, and
even the downtown business twenty four or seven didn't apply there,
so there was really you had to leave the downtown
after coming out of the I think we saw it
at the Palace, had to leave the downtown in order to,
you know, grab something to eat or whatever after the show.
We need more stuff for people to do. Otherwise, those

(05:04):
people that are renting the apartments and buying the condominiums
and so forth are just going to continue to take
their money out of that community, spend it somewhere else,
and you're not going to see any kind of economic growth.
The only growth you're going to have is from the
cost of their housing, which in some cases is very

(05:24):
very high. Just out of curiosity, because it's not like
I'm going to do it if I'd lived if it
was just like me and the Queen, maybe, but I've
looked at several several of those places downtown just to
see what kind of money they were getting. It's expensive,

(05:45):
expensive if you want to live down there. And I've
always been one to think, okay, if you have that
kind of money at your disposal, are you not going
to buy a four bedroom, two and a half bath
with a walkout basement and a suburbs somewhere instead of
renting of an apartment down here, or I just I

(06:06):
don't know, or maybe that's just me. Anyway, Well, I
walked through the door day all grumpy because of Microsoft,
and I don't if many of you, probably from my
Facebook reactions, have had the same message that as of
October twenty twenty five, Windows ten will no longer be supported. Now,
I bought a laptop. I've got a desktop that I

(06:27):
had custom built, and I haven't even taken it out
of the box. I think it's like three maybe four
years old now. And I also abought this laptop a
couple of years ago, which was very well, you know,
very well taken care of and his high end stuff, processors, storage, everything,
and it according to the Microsoft Windows screen today where

(06:51):
it says test to see if your computer is compatible
with Windows eleven, it isn't, which means here, I'm gonna
have to go buy another laptop in order to you know,
not watch because if I just have ten, there's no
more support. There's no more updates whatever. You know, the
virus gurus out there will start targeting Windows ten because

(07:14):
they know Windows Defender will no longer be active. And
if I don't want to put myself in a bad situation,
I'm going to have to go by that shouldn't be.
I mean, whatever the shelf life is on these things,
it seems like, you know, the company should have to
do at least a decade, you know, at least a

(07:36):
decade of support for a product.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
I mean, I would imagine if you delete like every
single thing that you have on your hard drive, it
might have enough space to upgrade.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Well, I don't even know if it's a hard drive issue.
It might be a processing issue for all I know.
It just said it wasn't compatible. And I'm gonna have
to when I've got the time to sit there and
act like I know what I'm doing and decipher all
this stuff, maybe, just maybe I'll figure out what it
is I need. But I'm pretty sure i've got to.
I want to say it got half a terrbyte on

(08:08):
this hard drive. I paid for this computer. Man, this
was I put some money in this one, and I
just I'm upset. And you know, Zach's first response, well,
I'll say Apple doesn't do that. Yes, but I hate
Apple and that's a problem because they're so proprietary and
I don't care for that. The whole concept of you know,

(08:30):
personal computing and the Internet and so forth, is is
that access, that network, that access to all of this information,
all these utilities. And Apple is very much no, it's ours.
You can't have it. When the whole world is walking
around with MP three players twenty years ago, Apple had
to have aif had to be their own personal file,

(08:52):
so you couldn't stuff. Yeah, you couldn't go to iTunes
and buy a bunch of music and download the files
and play him on your your your MP three player,
because you had to have an iPod in order to
put that. I just I don't like that. That's not
playing nicely with others. And the iPhone with my Android

(09:14):
crapped out, and you know, money was tight, things were rough.
I needed a replacement quick. Zach was kind enough to
give me his because he just upgrade. Would you get
the fourteen.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
Fourteen or fifteen, I can't remember. I don't really pay attention,
but I needed a new one.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
But he had a twelve pro and he said, Man,
if you need a phone, here, take this one. I
don't need to bless his heart for that. That was wonderful. However,
like two weeks after I got the pro hooked up,
I get a message from Apple. You're out of storage.
You'll need to buy some eye cloud storage.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, like I was, you have the phone.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
I had a free upgrade thing anyway, but it was
so funny that you got it.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yeah, my Android never had issues, but yeah, I had
to buy iCloud storage. So I Eyes of iCloud storage
and then you're out again. You need to buy even more.
You've got to be kidding me. And I still if
you go in there and you try to do something
simple like download your iCloud files to an external hard

(10:15):
drive or something like that, you can't do it. It
seems to only want to download to an Apple product.
So to my laptop, my my Windows based laptop. I
can't go into my iCloud account and download the files
from my iCloud to either my external hard drive or
my Windows based laptop because it's not an Apple product.

(10:37):
That's that's ridiculous. Man, it's mine, but it's essentially held
hostage until I buy one. Of your products so I
can download it, and I just I don't care for that.
But I'm just that is a dilemma for me tonight
because I'm thinking, man, I don't want to spend Yeah,
you can go to you know, Walmart or something and

(10:57):
buy a two hundred and forty nine dollars laptop, but
it's you're getting what you paid for.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
Yeah, tops are definitely with PC stuff. Don't never buy
cheap stuff if you can afford.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
This one with the processor and the memory and uh,
I think I've got the sixteen gig ram in there
with everything. I believe I paid in the neighborhood of
fourteen hundred bucks and that was just a couple of
years ago. And here I am now being told it's
not compatible. You're gonna need to buy another one. I

(11:30):
may just go spend seventy five cents on stamps and
start mailing stuff to people.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I mean, I wish I could help you more.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
I'm just not much of a Yeah, I'm the computer
guy compared to other people.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
So I just it's such a scam. It is such
a scam.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
I think about getting an Apple.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Yeah, I will come through that window and punch you, right,
now you will look like a traffic accident if you
ever say that to me again, I'm just telling you
