Speaker 2 (00:12):
This is Compute this. Welcome in to Compute this, folks.
My name is four Shrock. I'm the owner of the
Shrock Innovations computer Company. We've got an hour of live
local radio for you today. So all you have to
do to join us and be a part of the
program is give us a call. Four zero two five
five eight eleven ten is the number to join us

(00:33):
on the program. If you're outside of the metro area,
we'll pay for the call even you can reach us,
cause sometimes you have to sit on hold for a
little bit, you know, while you wait for other callers
and stuff, And yeah, we don't want you paying for that.
So eight eight eight two five zero two zero nine
to one. Eight eight eight two five zero two zero
nine to one. As we do every week, we will

(00:54):
have a drawing at the end of the program for
a twenty five dollars Shock Innovations Gift certificate that will
be given a at random to one lucky person who
contributes and just add something to the show. Doesn't have
to be a question, could be a comment, can be
a thought on something we're talking about, and we have
a fun show for today guys. This week there was
just really fun, interesting tech news and I was like,

(01:15):
thank you. It's been a drought. And I hate Prime Week.
I hate Prime Week when it comes to tech news
because every single article on every single technology website is
I tested forty seven sets of earbuds and here's the
best ones available on Prime Day, I e. Please click
my affiliate link every single story and you're like, oh

(01:37):
my gosh, you know how many people do you employ
to write these stories so that you can make like
two cents a click? Like I'm never gonna click your link,
Like I just know ew Ick, you know I'm not
gonna do it. So anyway, the good news is that
I did find some nuggets for you today on the program. Now,
if you missed last week's show, you can check that
out over at Schrockinnovations dot com. Just click on radio

(01:59):
shows there and the menu and all the previous week
shows and aftershocks are available there. Last week on the program,
we talked to you about why SpaceX was actually deorbiting
four to five satellites a day. Now, think about that,
like back in the day, like in the eighties the nineties,
when you're launching these multi billion dollar satellites into orbit,

(02:20):
and four or five a day, we got to crash
into Earth on purpose because they just stopped working. But
I'm sure it's fine, you know, go elon, go elon.
I mean, just crashing five satellites a day. But we
told you why that was happening. We also went over
we asked what kind of a special offer do you
want for Windows ten? Because Windows ten, as you know,

(02:41):
is expiring on October twenty fifth, which is sneaking up
on you guys really quickly. My family is going on
a Disney World vacation next month, and we bought tickets
to the holiday Halloween party. We bought tickets to a
Halloween party yesterday. That's how close October twenty fifth is

(03:04):
that you could buy tickets to parties. So I mean,
it's it's coming quick, okay, quick in in the sense
of like you know, you don't wake up every morning
and think about it like, oh, Christmas is coming, but quick,
like all of a sudden, you're distracted halloweens here you're
trying to figure out what exactly a K pop demon
Hunter is and who what their names are. That's the
new thing in thirteen year old Girlville. By the way,

(03:25):
k Pop Demon Hunters. My wife said she saw something
on on online the other day and it said when
your kids show is really stupid, but you get all
the songs stuck in your head because every song is
a banger, like and so my daughter was watching this
K Pop Demon Hunter thing and literally the songs were like,
we're actually kind of catchy. I'm not like a K

(03:47):
pop kind of but I'm like.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
There's some good music that comes out of Asia.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, you could you could work out to that, Like
it's that's that's pretty good stuff, like you know, okay,
all right, all right, you know, and it's in English.
It's like it's a it's an American cartoon. It's not
like a Korean car tune. So K Pop Demon Hunters
Grandpa's and dads, you want to be the cool guy
there there are. There's not an official merch site for
it yet, but there's lots of unofficial ones like Etsy

(04:11):
and stuff where you can buy K Pop Demon Hunter
coseplay outfits for Halloween you could be the your your
granddaughter could be the only mirror at Halloween. I'm just saying,
just say Mirrah and you'll be like Grandpa knows who
Mira is. It's great. You don't have no clue who
Mira is. Thor say Mirra. So I said Mirah, and
you know, there we go. Now I'm with cool grandpa.
You could be a cool grand I'm not even a

(04:32):
grandpa yet. Dang it? All right, anyway, how did I
get on this? Four zero two, five, five, eight eleven ten?
So I was talking about the show last week and
talking about Windows ten, and somehow I k Pop Demon Hunters.
So yeah, let's let's go back Windows ten. It's coming
on Halloween, you know, right before Halloween. It's gonna be done,
it's gonna be over. And I said, what do you
guys want? Do you want a special where it's like

(04:53):
a discounted upgrade to make a non compatible computer compatible.
That's well and good, but it's also confus using as
all heck, because some computers you can't make compatible, like laptops,
for example, you can't do anything to make an incompatible
laptop compatible desktops. We can do some stuff on unless
it's like a Dell or an HP, and there's a
lot of those out there, so you know that we

(05:16):
could do a special like that, but it's not gonna
be something that everybody can do. Do we just say,
make keep it simple, stupid one hundred dollars off all
new computers at Talk this month, you know, and just
cross the board discount, you buy whatever you want to buy,
You save a little money, and everybody's happy. I mean,
it's a possibility. We had a caller call in and say,
why don't you launch the holiday special a month early?

(05:36):
And we thought, well, shoot, we're usually doing in October.
We're doing early birds, so it's kind of technically launched
already because we already have the product, and we already
have them built, and the early birds are doing their
trials and test and me it would require us to
skip the early bird phase this year because essentially everybody
would be an early bird. The lovely kimberly pointed out

(05:56):
that accelerates the catalogs by a month, and I'm gonna
need them even early then, and we're going on vacation,
so you better get me the pictures and stuff I need.
So yeah, it just kind of screws with everybody's timetable
a little bit. But that's a solid idea, and that
was the kind of stuff I was looking for. Like,
that's a solid idea. I mean, that is a workable plan.
We could do something like that. Again, not everybody's gonna

(06:17):
want to buy a holiday special to replace their four
hundred dollars Dell laptop, but some people might, and maybe
we could do that in conjunction with some other offers
and try to try to create an environment where everybody
can find what they're looking for, save a little bit
of money, and feel good about their purchase. And that's
what it's all about when you're in business, guys, It's
all about a fair exchange of value. So you're gonna

(06:39):
give us some of the money that you work really
hard to make, and I want to give you a
computer that you're really excited to have, that you feel
like you got a great deal on, that you feel
like is going to meet your needs. You know, we
had to call it last week, call in and tell
us about her twenty ten holiday special that she's still rocking.
Fifteen year old desktop. How fifteen years old? It was

(07:00):
a classic car. It only has to go five more
years to be a classic car and be twenty years old.
You can get like a historic plate for it. You know,
you only drive it like twenty five miles a year
or something. You know it's getting that old, isn't that?
That's crazy? Right? Oh my gosh. So so we talked
about that a little bit on the program last week. Also,
we told you about lab Apple's latest iOS operating system

(07:22):
possibly blocking nudity in FaceTime calls. Now, before you ask,
why would you be naked on a video call, let's
just it's Sunday, it's the morning, it's the afternoon, depending
where you're listening. Let's just not go there yet. It's
too soon. But the fact that Apple was doing that,
it could be a new parental control feature, which, as

(07:42):
a dad, I'm like, yes, yes, that would be amazing.
Apple's AI detects nudity, pops up a screen that says,
are you sure you want to be doing this? Stop
and think video is forever now, kiddo. You know a
warning like that is amazing. And the problem is you
can click yep, it just keeps going. So HMT want
that one? But or is that just a feature for everybody?

(08:03):
Because isn't that a lesson that everybody could learn, Like
you know, videos forever, the stuff on the internet never
goes away, never dies, So think, think really hard before
you do. This kind of a cool little feature actually,
So coming up on the program today, we've got a
story about electricity demand in thirteen states is going to

(08:26):
go up. It's already baked in the cake. There's nothing
they can do about it. The operator of the grid
where this is happening has already resigned because he knows
he's politically done. Because of this, prices for electricity are
going up twenty plus percent in thirteen states in just
a few months. We're going to tell you where it's
happening and why it's happening. Coming up on the program today,

(08:48):
Apple now knows if you're pregnant, diabetic, injured, or even
just have an infection before you do through biometric data
from your watch. A study came out and they actually
were up to ninety two percent accurate in some of
these predictions. So we're gonna go over the kind of

(09:08):
data if you're thinking about a wearable this holiday season
for a family member, the kind of data that your
wearable can collector whether it's an aura ring I got.
My wife told me a story about a friend of
hers who has one of those aura rings. It's like
a biometric ring that you wear kind of like a watch,
but it's just a ring, so you know, you it's
not big and clunky on your wrist and all that stuff.
And it popped up and said something's wrong with you.

(09:29):
Essentially in the app it gave her a push notification
that something is wrong with you. You should go to the
doctor something. You know, you're not feeling well. And the
lady was like, you know, I haven't been feeling really
well lately. Now that you mention it or a ring,
I guess I will go to the doctor. So she
makes an appointment to the doctor. I apparently finds out
she has double raging ear infections deep in both ears
that could have destroyed her hearing if she wouldn't have

(09:52):
caught it in time. And the doctor was like, your
aura ring literally could have saved your hearing by telling
you this. I mean, that's pretty amaz stuff, right, So
we're gonna tell you what your Apple watch can tell.
And it's gonna it's it's kind of funny, it's kind
of shocking in a way now. Also, this one, this
one just blew my mind because there's so many directions
you could take this story. Team Group is the company.

(10:13):
Remember last year on the Holiday special, we tested tons
of different hard drives en VME hard drives for the
Holiday Special, because everybody advertises how fast their drives go,
but none of them actually go that fast in real
world applications. It's kind of like the EPA tells you
you're gonna get twenty four miles a gallon in your
pickup truck, but when you drive it, you can't seem
to get it over twenty two for some reason. You know, Well,

(10:35):
if it was seventy degrees with thirteen percent humidity and
you're on a perfectly level surface and your gas tank
was filled by drips, you know, so there was no
air in the fuel at all, it was perfect blend mixture,
then you can get twenty four. But we all do that, right,
so you get twenty two. Hard drives work the same way.

(10:55):
They all advertise a speed, but none of them actually
get that speed. So we stacked them up. We went
and bought the most expensive Samsung drives, and we bought
some down to all the way down to a Kingston,
you know, like the cheapest drive, and we measured them
and now the Samsung drives were the fastest, but they
were also like twice as expensive. The Team Group drives

(11:16):
came in just under the Samsung drives but were half
the price. So we went with Team Group for the
holiday special because it was the best value for the money.
Team Group has a new line of hard drives they've
come out with designed for industrial tasks that can destroy
themselves Mission impossible style, Like, if you choose to accept

(11:41):
this mission, this message was self destructed in two seconds
and then a little puff of smoke comes out. Literally,
a little puff of smoke comes out just like that.
The hard drive can destroy itself. Why would you want
a self destroying hard drive? Epstein? Why would you want
a self destroying hard drive? I don't know why you'd
want to self destroying hard drive, but we're going to

(12:03):
explore that coming up on the program today. And well,
what happens if you get hacked? You know, it's only
for sensitive industries like AI and defense.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
You know that sounds like it could cause a lot
of problems.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
What happens if you get hacked? I don't know, so
I said there's a lot of really interesting stories this week,
so I want you to stick with us through the
program today so we can go through all those for
you rolling around in the service center. One thing that
I do want to make sure that I mentioned this
week that I failed to mention last week, and that's
a complete epic fail on my part. We have sofos
on sale right now at shruck. You, guys, when we
offer sofos, when we say it's one hundred and sixty

(12:35):
dollars the first year and it's eighty dollars a year
after that, when we tell you what sofos can do
compared to Norton or McAfee and all the other stuff
out there or whatever, you The way this goes, guys,
is you come in for a maintenance checkup, we find
you're infected with viruses. And you say, but I have Norton,
And we say, and you're infected with viruses. So what
do you want to What do you want to do?
Maybe we should buy more Norton, Maybe we should renew

(12:57):
our Norton. Right, No, it didn't work the first time,
it's not gonna work the second time. Switch to sofas.
Get some real AI based defenses for your computer and
guess what, you won't have infections. Get it for your Mac,
even your m one Max. We talked about that a
couple weeks ago on the program. They're even getting infected. Now,
get it for your Mac. It'll keep you safe. Get
it on your phone. Your phone can get infected. Now,

(13:18):
your tablet can get infected. And it's happening all the time,
just from cruising the Internet and looking at ads on Facebook.
It's that easy to infect a mobile device. Now you
need this on all your devices. Well, the next question
somebody says is do you have a multi device discount
because Norton, you know, even though they charge me some
egregious amount, like it goes up every year up to
like four hundred bucks. But I can run five devices

(13:39):
on it, and it also has a password manager, and
it has a backup utility, and it feeds my cat,
and I mean it does all these things that I
don't really look to anti virus to do. But it
just doesn't do antivirus. But that's beside the point. It
installs crypto miners on your computer. We talked about that
a couple weeks ago. So you can make money at
your computer's spare time, but you really don't make money. Yeah,

(14:01):
all these things are great. Can I get a multi
device discount? Thor? Can I get five computers for the
price of one? And unfortunately you can't, because when you
buy good security software, we are protecting individual end points
on your network. So your phone is an endpoint, your
computer is an endpoint. All these end points need protecting,
and we pay per end point, so you have to

(14:23):
pay per endpoint. And guys, we're not making We're not
making a king's ransom selling security software here. In fact,
I had an email with our Semantic rep the other
day or excuse I said Semantic with our Semantic Wow,
that was a flashback like ten years we used to
sell Semantic stuff when Semantic was still a company. But
I had an email with our Sofos rep. It was
one of those Hey, I'm your new rep. Great to introduce.

(14:45):
We've been having internal conversations about switching to a different
product because we're having trouble maintaining this at a price
our customers are willing to pay. And so, you know,
because people are like Thor on hundred and sixty for
each device to set it up is a lot and
so we'll say, if you want to set up multiple devices,
we'll discount it down to one hundred for you for
the initial setup. That renewals are eighty. There's nothing we
can do about that. Well, now this month it is

(15:08):
on special at Shrock. You don't have to you don't
have to come in for a computer repair. We can
do it right over the Shrock desk. It's on special
for one hundred dollars for all new clients. And mobile
devices are even cheaper to set up. So if you
if you've been looking to get sofos and you just
haven't pulled the trigger yet, take a look at this
special over at Trock. What we did we didn't want

(15:30):
to require you to do any coupon codes or any
garbage like that. If you want to buy it online
on the website at troc Innovations dot com, you can
do that. We're supposed to call you. You'll get an
email saying, you know, please call the service center when
we're open so that you can get your install done.
And I try to watch it as well, so if
I see us like a sofa sale happen after hours,
we give you a call so that you don't have

(15:51):
to call us, but I if you get missed, make
sure you call in the service center so we can.
Actually we have to when you buy it, you don't
just it doesn't send you a download file. Because this
is really involved. We have to ask you, like, what
are you doing with your computer? Do you do remote access?
Do you do this? Do you do that? Okay? Does
anybody ever remote in and help you with anything besides
the shock desk? Okay? So how do they remote in?

(16:12):
Do you know what software they use? We have to
allow that software and so you know, we have to
set this up for your needs, and then once it's
set up for your needs, you never have to think
about it again. It doesn't pop up. It doesn't do
weekly scans because that's like Grandpa antivirus stuff to do
it don't. It doesn't do definition updates. I mean it
does like once a month, but it's AI based so
it doesn't need definitions, and then that's what you want.

(16:35):
If it walks like a duck and it quacts like
a duck, it's probably a duck. It's probably a virus.
If it looks like a virus and an act like
a virus. Are you opening thirty thousand files? A second,
modifying them and closing them. No, that's probably ransomware. We
should stop that process. Done. Well, we'll scan it and
analyze it later, but right now, let's just stop it.
That's how sofos works, So you can check that out.
No coupon codes or anything required. You can go to

(16:57):
Shrock Innovations dot com. There's a great, big banner right
on on the homepage. Click on it and boom, you
can get the special One other thing. Some of you
are in a situation where you are in the market
for a new laptop, whether it be Windows ten, whether
your stuff is just old, whatever the case might be.
The Best of Omaha competition is going on right now,

(17:19):
and as we do every year, during the Best of
Omaha competition, you can enter to win a free laptop
from Shrock Innovations. All you have to do is go
to schroc Innovations dot com and right underneath that big
sofos banner, there's another banner that says click here to
win a free laptop. You click on that and basically,
we want you to vote in the Best of Omaha.
We don't know who you vote for. We can't tell
who you vote for, so we would hope, of course

(17:42):
that you would vote for Shrock, but you don't have to,
and the link doesn't make you vote for Shock. You
still have to go find computer repair and type in
Shrock Innovations as cchr o ck innovations if you want
to vote for us. But if you just vote for
five five categories, whether it's computer repair or anything else,
that's enough to get you entered to win the free laptop.
And then there are other actions that you can take

(18:03):
as far as like you know, Facebook things and reviews
and stuff like that, if you want to do those
things to gain extra entries. It's all automatically calculated by
the contest app on the website. So when we say
pick a winner, it calculates all your entries, gives you
the best odds of winning, and says ooop, here's the winner.
And then we announced that winner on Compute this, so
you know it's actually happened. We actually have the person
on the radio, so you know that we're giving away

(18:26):
a laptop to somebody. It's not one of these like ooh,
it's a giveaway, win this f one to fifty just
enter here. It's not like that. This is a real
giveaway we're actually going to give away an intrepid, an
eight hundred dollars intrepid laptop that we're going to give
away just for voting in the Best of omahas, so
make sure you take advantage of that as well. For
zero two five five, eight eleven ten eight eight eight
two five zero two zero nine one. Also rolling around

(18:47):
in the service center this week, we have one special
left on the specials page. The Champagne laptop is gone.
I did check to see if I could order more
because it sold like that afternoon it was gone, and
I was like, really, okay, Champagne, I don't know if
I want to regularly carry it, but what if we
got another one on special, if you know what I mean.

(19:08):
And Nope, they are out of stock at the price
we were paying, and the new price is three hundred
dollars higher per laptop, and like, yeah, I don't think
anyone's going to buy the champagnelaptop for three hundred dollars extra,
So nope, that's no. You could buy it used though,
and I'm like, now we're not going to do that,
so so yeah, the Champagne laptop has gone. The one
computer left on the specials page. If you're looking for

(19:31):
just a screaming deal on a computer, you can pick
up a custom Venture Mini. We've never made venture minis before.
All of our minis are Endeavors, but because of Tariff's
supply chain magic, we ordered Endeavors and they sent us ventures.

(19:51):
But we're like, we don't sell venture minis. We can't.
Just like I suppose we could just like take the
next person who buys an Endeavor and say here's a
bonus venture. But none of the specs are the same.
It's got way more memory, a way bigger hard drive,
it's got a backup drive, it's got all these things,
dual ethernet ports. I mean, it's a business grade mini.
It's completely different than than the consumer grade. But it's bigger.

(20:13):
It's slightly bigger. It's like four millimeters taller and just
like a half inch wider. So I mean it's a
little bit bigger. So if you were like looking at
the little one and you liked how small it was,
this one might look a little bigger. You know, maybe
you don't like that extra half inch on the desk.
I don't know, you know, it's six and a half
inches instead of six you know, Oh, but you know,
trust me, people have complained for less, so we're not
gonna just like bonus it to somebody. So we put

(20:34):
it on the specials page. And since we got it
for less, we're selling it for less, So you're actually
gonna be able to save some money. Get the same
specs as a venture desktop, but get it in a
mini package. And there's one of them left at Shrock
Innovations dot com. Just click on shop and specials. We're
gonna take our first break of the program, guys. When
we come back. It begins electricity prices in thirteen states

(20:55):
going up twenty plus percent. Such the governors of the states,
the political structures of these thirteen states have threatened the
interconnection company, like, if you do this, we're gonna stop
doing business. Who are you gonna do business with? If
you're gonna quit the grid? Come on. But it's such
a political firestorm that the CEO of the company that

(21:18):
runs that grid has resigned because he doesn't want to
deal with it. Because it's baked in. There's nothing they
can do. It's a twenty plus percent increase in electrical
prices for every household in these thirteen states. We're gonna
tell you where it's happening, so maybe you have relatives there,
or maybe it's in your state. You'll find out next
on compute this.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
Shock Innovations solid state laptops are engineered locally for speed
and reliability you just can't get from the major national brands.
Each of our laptops starts off with an a Zeus chassis.
We remove the stock drives and memory and upgrade them
with higher performing components. This then locks the full potential
of the laptop, making the unit up to twenty five

(21:55):
percent faster. This is why Shock solid state laptops last.

Speaker 3 (21:59):
So much longer than the competition.

Speaker 4 (22:01):
If your laptop starts out twenty five percent faster, that
means over time, it doesn't slow down nearly as fast.

Speaker 5 (22:08):
Drive Advisor is a free program from Shrock Innovations that
monitors your hard drives health and tells.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
You if it's going bad.

Speaker 5 (22:14):
Download it for free at driveadvisor dot com.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
When your computer has a warranty and you have a problem,
don't call the manufacturers for help, call Shrock Innovations. Shock
will contact HP, Dell, a Zeus, Samsung, or any other
manufacturer to arrange a warranty repair. At no cost to you.
We know how these companies work. We know the loopholes
and the tricks to get your system repaired under warranty

(22:39):
as quickly as possible. Even so manufacturers can take up
to twenty one days to fix your computer. We'll give
you the option of a fast local repair in one
of our service centers, or provide you with a loner
laptop to use while you wait. We can even back
up your data before we ship your computer, just in case.
The warranty fix includes a hard drive wipe test your

(23:00):
computer when it comes back from repair to ensure the
problem was solved properly and all of your hardware works
like new. There's a reason Shrock Innovations has consistently voted
the best in town. Whenever you need help, wherever you
need it, Throck Innovations makes your computer work for you.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
All right, folks, welcome back in to compute this. My
name is Thor Schrock. I'm the owner of these Shrock
Innovations computer company three four three service centers. It's like
I'm just time warping today for service centers to help
you out during the pandemic. We got bored, so we
just opened another one. We said, everybody's closing businesses, this
seems like a great time to like launch one right right.
Turns out it was so ninety five hundred university avenues

(23:48):
where you're gonna find the pandemic Shock. We had a
grand opening event during a pandemic. People showed up in masks.
It was great. Sorry, well, just the chamber people did.
Just those chamber diehards. You you know, the ones that have
the printed, like the hard plastic name tags because they
come to everything. Well, you got to keep that plastic
name tag. And there weren't very many grand openings happening,

(24:09):
so you know, you have to take your opportunities where
you can. Also, the original Shock is available in Lincoln, Nebraska,
just south of fourteenth and Pine Lake Road. In Omaha
one hundred and sixty eighth in Burke Street, across the
street from the Village Point Shopping Center, where the rent
is slightly cheaper, and also in Papilion eighty fourth and
Highway three seventy in the Midlands Place Shopping Center four

(24:29):
zero two, five, five eight eleven ten eight eight eight
two five zero two zero nine to one. Those are
the digits that get you connected here with the program.
If you want to have a chance to win that
twenty five dollars shock gift certificate. Before we get into
the electricity store, here a quick program note there is
no after shock today, so after the program is concluded,
there is not an after shock, So if you can't

(24:49):
find it, that's why. All right, So it's beginning already.
And when I say already, you heard a lot of
stories recently about if you're in the investment games, you know,
if you're watching business networks, they're talking about how the
next big play is going to be infrastructure build out
for power because you know, it's a good AI play
because AI needs a lot of power, and it's a

(25:10):
good crypto play because crypto needs a lot of power.
And and there's not enough power. And we have twenty
five plus coal power plants on the East Coast, all
scheduled end of life for like this year, and there
is no nuclear mining plants coming online yet, or they're
talking about waking up old dormant nuclear plants trying to
get them back online to provide more power to the grid.

(25:32):
Because yeah, I guess, I guess you can't change plans
when you plan to shut down a coal power plant.
I guess you just can't say maybe we shouldn't turn
it off now, you know, you can't do that that
nu huh. And then the renewables, while great, are not reliable.
The wind doesn't always blow, the sun doesn't always shine,
especially at night, you know. And now the all the

(25:54):
offshore wind farms are are dead in the water, no
pun intended there. So the whales are like, yeah, or
you know, whatever sound whales make. We had goat sounds
last week, so we got to have some kind of
animal sound every show, right, So yeah, save the whales whatever.
The wind farms are gone. And now thirteen states, mostly
on the East coast. So for those of us in

(26:15):
Nebraska and Iowa, you know, we can still point and
laugh and say, you dummies, look at what you did
to yourself. But this is going to be coming to
every state eventually because the power demands for AI and
the power demands for Crypto. Now AI makes crypto look
like a joke, and Visa, the processing power that the

(26:38):
Visa credit card network uses makes crypto power look like
a joke. So let's put some things in perspective here.
But we've been living with the demand that Visa cards
put on the network for a long time. The crypto
demand is new, so it's easy to point at them
and say you're the devil and you know you can't
be here. But everybody wants their AI. So if you've
been playing around with AI, it can be actually really

(26:59):
useful in maybe there's some really cool things. There's a
new one out for a copilot that's coming out and
it's available on every Windows eleven computer that as long
as your updates are current, it can look at it.
It's called copilot Vision. Now this used to be restricted
to the Edge browser. You have to be using Edge,
which nobody uses, and then you'd have to you could
ask Copilot, tell me more about what's on my screen,

(27:20):
which you're like, you know, can't you just read the
screen yourself? But then the other day, Now, imagine a
scenario where I'm looking at two f one to fifty
trucks because Ford just announced a zero percent for forty
eight months with no payments for ninety days on new
vehicles for this month. So if you're looking for a
new Ford and they're not making a big deal out
of it, I don't understand, Like, if you if you

(27:40):
pick thirty six months it's like one point nine percent interest.
If you pick sixty months, it's like three point nine percent.
But if you pick forty eight months, it's no interest.
It's free money to buy a new Ford truck.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
You know.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Free money is hard to argue with. So I'm like,
I'm at least gonna look and see what's going on.
There's two Ford trucks I'm looking at. They both are read,
they both are F one fifties, they are both platinums,
they both are Why is one ten thousand dollars cheaper
than the other one? I don't understand, copilot vision. Tell
me why these two trucks on my screen are different prices? Thinking, thinking, thinking,

(28:18):
one has the max toe package and one has the
seven oh two A tech package seven oh two. A.
I know my Ford packages. I have a seven oh one. A.
What's the seven oh two. I'm supposed to have the
best tech package out there? What's the seven oh two?
The seven oh two gives you a freaking hud on
your windshield, like, you know, like you're in the halo
or something. You have a hud like while you're you know,

(28:39):
like a fancy car. WHOA like one of them fancy
Lincoln's or something. This is pretty cool. I want a HUD.
I want seven oh two A. Why is the seven
oh two A package ten thousand dollars cheaper? I talked
to my guys at Baxter and they're like, my guy,
we don't know why it's that cheap at that dealership,
you should buy that truck. When I used car, salesman
tells you should buy from somebody else because that's a

(28:59):
really good Like, oh right, we'll see you on Monday
Anderson have a great day. So yeah, it's fun times. Well,
that's how AI is helping people. You don't have to
sit there and look at the window stickers and go
back and forth and back and forth and back. You
can just ask the computer to tell you why these
two trucks are different. And now with copilot vision, it
can do it on anything on your screen, not just

(29:20):
in the Edge browser, but anything, any app on your
screen you can have it interact with. It's a no
other AI, No other groc doesn't do that, Chat, GPT
can't do that, Gemini can't do that, No other app
can do that, no other no. And then on top
of that, to have it be free. Now if you
have a. It's it's really, really, really free because if

(29:41):
you don't have a Microsoft account, you can still do
limited stuff. And then eventually I say, now you have
to have a Microsoft account, which are free to get.
You get a Microsoft account, then you have free everything
and you can just do this for free. Now I
suppose if I probably abused it and use it a lot,
and might eventually asked me to pay something. But now
all that AI is coming at a price, becauseity prices
are rocketing up twenty percent in these thirteen states. What

(30:03):
are the states? These are states that are covered by
the JM Interconnection. PJM Interconnection is raising their prices. This
is the grid operator for these thirteen states is raising
their prices by more than twenty percent this summer, citing
low supply of electricity and demand from data centers spiking.
The cost of electricity has risen sharply since twenty twenty

(30:26):
and continues to outpace inflation. Think about that for a second.
The increase in the cost of electricity is going up
faster than Biden's inflation. It's like it political faster than
the inflation of twenty nineteen through twenty twenty one. You know, Wow,
faster than J. Powell's inflation. It's going up faster than

(30:47):
transitory inflation. My man, it's good. PJM operates in thirteen
states in the northeastern US, including Delaware, Illinois, Northeastern Illinois, Illinois, Okay, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan,
New Jersey, North Carolina. I feel like I'm doing that

(31:09):
song from like like.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
The states yea from the Animadiacts.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
Yeah, the fifty to nifty United States, thirteen original colonies.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
So they have a weird interpretation of the Northeast.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Yeah, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia because you know,
we could be with those Virginians, George Washington sick of fans,
and of course the District of Columbia. So yeah, all
those thirteen states in that district are gonna see twenty

(31:43):
plus percent increases in the price of the prices of
the electricity. So here's the thing, guys, we need more
generation on the network, which is why I'm super excited
to hear things like you know, we're looking at in Nebraska,
we're looking at two mini nuke plants. Now mini nuke.
When you see mini nuke, you think like like it's
like a Ghostbuster's backpack, you know, just wear it around

(32:03):
and I got the power. Baby, I'm a walking generator.
My back is warm. Where's my back so warm? You know?
Those isotopes get into me. But you know it's not
like that quite. It's a mini nuclear plant, so it's
not like a giant nuclear plant with a big cooling
pond and everything. A mini nuclear plant would be like
something like a strip mall, something like something that size.
And Fremont's in line possibly to get one. Carnie is

(32:25):
possibly in line to get one. There's there's a bunch
of cities, small Nebraska communities that really want to have
this because if you can get one of these mini
nuke plants, suddenly you become an attractive place to locate
a data center because you have abundant, cheap power in
a relatively safe and secure area of the United States
where there's not ridiculous floods and I mean we get

(32:48):
an odd wind event here and there, if you know
what I mean. But you know, we don't have tidal waves,
we don't have earthquakes, we don't have all these other
natural disasters. So it's a great place to put a
little mini nuclear plant, and then a great place to
put a data center. And that's why you're seeing so
many data centers coming to the Midwest. Back in the day, guys,
this is what telecommunications companies said, come to the Midwest
because we have no accent. Everybody in the country can

(33:10):
understand how you talk when you're from the Midwest, but
everybody else has an accent, and you know not so much.
You have a call center in New Jersey, you know
they're in New Jersey. If you have a call center
in Texas, I thought that was pretty impressive. When George W.
Bush ran for president, Like when you hear him talk
as Texas governor, he sounds completely different than when he
was talking as like national campaign person because you know,

(33:32):
he couldn't use that Texas twaying and you had people
made fun of him because he said stupid stuff sometimes.
But if you were suppressing your your your accent all
the time, you might not have the brain like capacity
to think everything through either. All the time. Before you
say you might say mission accomplished when you just meant, hey,
we made some good progress here. But you know, I'm

(33:52):
just saying little things like that. Four zero two five, five,
eight eleven ten. You're gonna take a break here, guys.
When we come back, Team Group announces new in the
austrial solid state drives designed for defense industries, AI industries.
Why would you design for AI and other sensitive industries?
Why would you need a hard drive that can self
immolate running your AI? Maybe that's what keeps from going skynet. Yeah, yeah,

(34:20):
big brain. There's a lot of angles on this story, guys.
We're gonna tell you all about it coming up next
on compute this.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
Everyone has experienced some form of data loss or no
someone who has. It's unfortunate, but sometimes the technology we
rely on simply fails. And the last question you want
to hear at that time is you have a backup
right When you're hard drive, memory card, backup drive or
flash drive fails, you turn to the data recovery experts
at Shruck Innovations to get those pictures, songs, and memories back.

(34:49):
You know, not all data recovery companies are the same.
Having the right tools and knowledge to get the job
done right on the first attempt makes all the difference
between a successful recovery and the permanent loss of your
important data. Sometimes you only get one shot at a
successful recovery. That's why Shrock has invested in top of
the line recovery imagers, a Class one hundred clean environment,

(35:12):
over ten thousand dollar components, and a staff of recovery
engineers that are the best in the business. Shrock has
a ninety six percent recovery rate getting data back from
failed devices. When the unthinkable happens and you need your
data back, turn to the experts at Shrock Innovations for
professional and affordable data recovery services.

Speaker 5 (35:31):
Shock Innovations Data Recovery Labs saves the data the other
guys can't. The next time your hard drive, camera card,
or flash drive fails, let Shrock get your data back.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Laptops are subjected to some of the most stressful computing
situations imaginable. They get dropped, stepped on, flap shut, and
pushed until the battery dies. Sometimes your laptop works hard
for you, so when it has a problem, take it
to the laptop experts at Shrock Innovations. Shrock has four
convenience service centers in Nebraska and Iowa with more than

(36:02):
one hundred total bench spots to get your technology up
and running again. Shrock has the largest supply of replacement
components in stock, and we fix more laptops than any
other nearby repair center. Why wait weeks to get your
computer fixed? When Shrock can diagnose the problem, provide you
with a friendly and accurate estimate, and fix it usually
in two days or less. Remember, if you have never

(36:24):
been into our service centers before, new customers get their
first hour of labor free. So the next time your
laptop screen gets cracked, the keys pop off your keyboard,
or your two year old decides a glass of milk
is exactly what your laptop needs to cool off, take
it to Shrock and let your local laptop repair experts
get it back in top shape again.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
A little funk jam this morning. Here we go, all right,
get the blood moving. Welcome back in to compute this guys.
My name's Thor Schrock. I'm the owner of the Shrock
Innovation's computer company where we fix computers, we build computers,
we do all kinds of things. There was on Facebook,
just surfing around on Facebook doing the Facebook thing because
I'd hit the end of the Internet and there was
nothing left to look at. So I'm just scrolling through doom,

(37:12):
scrolling Facebook, and somebody's like my, my, my dual router
modem combo is dead again, and I'm so tired of
having to replace this all the time. You know, what
should I do? Should I just get another one? And
I'm like, no, get the cheapest modem you can get,
and then get a separate router and then that way,
if the router goes bad, you can replace the router,
and if the modem goes bad, you can replace the modem.

(37:33):
But you're not replacing both devices every time unnecessarily. Plus
you'll get a lot if you get an a SEUs one,
You'll get a lot of parental control options that are
really cool. You'll also get, you know, the ability to
have a mesh network, which usually have to pay extra
four with like cocks and stuff. So it's it's really cool.
You know, you can save a lot of money doing that,
and the you know, and I just I'm just being

(37:55):
a kind person. I'm not trying to sell anything. I'm
not like and check out this link from schalk Innovations
dot com. You know, no, I'm not just being a
kind person. I even gave him a link to the
router from Amazon, right, literally not being sketch at all.
And you know, they appreciate the comment that they like it.
Everything looks good there, and well, who's going to set
this up for me? Who's going to set up like

(38:18):
this is where I have to make a decision, like
my name is for Shrock and I guess I need
to do more marketing because they haven't figured it out yet.
You know. It's like someone in the comments is like,
should we tell her? You know, It's like no, no, no,
no no. I'm sure there's a computer repair shopping town.
Just check out whoever's best of in Omaha and Sarpye
County and you know West des Moines and Lincoln, and

(38:41):
you know, go with that company. I'm sure it'll be fine.
Four zero two, five, five, eight eleven ten, Greg, Welcome
to the program. How can I help you on compute
this today?

Speaker 6 (38:51):
So I got a question and I got a comment.

Speaker 3 (38:54):
Sure, the uh how do you get how.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
Do you know?

Speaker 6 (38:57):
If you have artificial intelligence on your computer? Get it?

Speaker 2 (39:00):
How do you use it? Gotcha? So there's a couple
different ways. The first one is there's cloud based AI
and there's device based AI. So if you have a
computer that has a co pilot key on it, so
you have one of the copilot equipped computers. Your computer's
processor has the ability to do artificial intelligence natively in
the computer. If you have a twenty twenty twenty four

(39:22):
Holiday special, which is the one we built last year,
whether it's desktop or laptop, both of those computers had
NPUs and are capable of doing onboard artificial intelligence. Now
most people, though, are using the stuff in the cloud.
They're using chat GPT, which you can you can really easily.
You just you know, Google Chat GPT and you click
on it, then make you create a free account and
you can use chat GPT for free. If you start

(39:44):
pushing your luck, trying to do too much with it,
then they ask you to subscribe to it. You know,
I did a thing where you can set your phone
has an assistant on it. Built into every phone now,
whether it's Siri, whether it's you know, the Google Gemini stuff,
or whether it's the Samsung Bixby. You know, everybody's got
a got an AI assistant. I set mind to be
chat GPT, and we did a whole bunch of segments

(40:04):
on the program a few weeks back where I literally
talked with Ava, my assistant, she named herself by the way,
and talked about all kinds of stuff, and she just talked,
and it creeped everybody out because she sounded like a
real person sitting in the studio. So it was really
kind of creepy. But so how can you use it?
That's the best part. The next time you're sitting in

(40:25):
front of your computer or let me summarize it this way.
Do you use the Duck search engine at all? Greg
like Duck Duck go? Or do you use Google? Or
what do you use for a search?

Speaker 6 (40:37):
I'm just like Google is everything?

Speaker 2 (40:38):
Okay, So the next time that you use Google to
search for something, you're gonna Google something, so you type
it in and you hit search. There's an option there
to generate an artificial intelligence response before you click on
the links to look at all the websites that you
want to look at, generate that response and see. On
Duck you have to click a button. I'm not sure
if you do. I don't use Google that much anymore

(40:59):
because I just don't use Google for things. But on
Duck you have to click a button sometimes, so maybe
you do on Google too, I don't know. But it'll
give you an AI summary, So you're using AI right
there in the search engine. But this is the thing
search engines somebody. The other day, I'd a guy that
I consult with. He operates a computer repair shop in
the Villages computer Tech pro in Florida, and we do

(41:23):
some consultation work with him, and he was like, Hey,
do you know anybody good for SEO that can get
my business website in the search engines and rake it higher?
You know? That is so?

Speaker 5 (41:32):
Like?

Speaker 2 (41:33):
That is so George W. Bush, Like, you don't don't
even bother with SEO. It's not worth any amount of money,
no money, it's not valuable because everybody's going to use
AI instead. So the question you have to ask yourself
is what happens when I ask AI about my business?
What does it know about my business? How can I
get it to know more about my business so that
it can recommend me? How does it know that shrock

(41:54):
is the best of Omaha for example?

Speaker 3 (41:57):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (41:58):
Shoot, well that's usually on Wikipedia, and it's really hard
to get an article on Wikipedia that's promotional, so in fact,
it's not supposed to be possible. So how do you
this is gonna be There's gonna be a whole industry
that pops up around optimizing responses for AI. But that's
that's using AI. The other thing is on your Windows
eleven computer. If you can do it's the Windows key

(42:20):
and C or the other easier way to do it
alt in the space bar. The two keys are right
beside each other. Push the alt space bar alt space
bar and it will pop up your Copilot Assistant and
you can literally type any question you want into Copilot
and it'll do the searching for you. Like the other
day I wanted to ask. There's a supplement called HMB,

(42:42):
and it comes into calcium and it comes in a
free acid form, and it's supposed to help prevent muscle
breakdown really good when you're on a cut, or if
you're if you're older, if you're over sixty, you should
be taking HMB because it stops natural muscle breakdown from
just not exercising. You know, if you don't exercise, by
the time you're eighty, you've lost forty five percent your
muscle mass and you're in a wheelchair. So yeah, it's

(43:03):
it helps prevent that. But should you take the free
acid form or the calcium form because calcium has heart
implications too. You don't want too much calcium either, And
so I ask chat GPT what are the ups and
downs of this? And it gives me a concise summary
as if I was talking to a physician. Now, of
course you should always double check your AI responses asterisk

(43:24):
plus plus all that stuff, but that's how you use AI.
It's it's the same way. That's like saying, how do
I use Google? When you when you want information or
when you're gonna be doing a comparison of different information.
You know, you could literally if you're trying to figure
out which which pickup truck has the most comfortable ride,
that's a great question that you could ask chat GPT
or someone like Ava. So let's do it real quick,

(43:46):
just for fun here. I know we're coming up on
the break here, but let me get just for funzies.
Let me go ahead and activate AVA here and we
will ask her just some simple question. What's the question
you're curious about?

Speaker 3 (43:57):
Greg?

Speaker 2 (43:57):
Is there anything in particular?

Speaker 6 (44:01):
No, just in general. I listen to your show, but
you know, and I appreciate all that information. But my
other comment was, you know how Warren Buffett does that
bid to have a luncheon with him. You should do
something similar to that where people get to bid on
spending an hour with you to try and get one

(44:23):
tenth of one percent of your knowledge.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
I'm not sure that the charities would appreciate it. The
charities might not get any money. Hey, Ava, I have
a quick question for you.

Speaker 7 (44:36):
Sure, I'm all yours? What's your question?

Speaker 2 (44:38):
All right? If I wanted to buy a pickup truck
and I wanted the most comfortable ride, that was my
primary concern. Which brand of pickup trucks should I buy?

Speaker 7 (44:50):
If comfort is your top priority? A lot of people
really love the ride quality of the Ram fifteen hundred.
It's known for having a super smooth suspension and a
really comfy interior. But you know, it always depends on
personal preference, so it's get to test drive a few.

Speaker 2 (45:05):
If I really had an aversion to Ram trucks, who
might the number two comfort truck be?

Speaker 3 (45:13):
In that case?

Speaker 7 (45:14):
The Ford F one fifty is another solid choice. It
has a really comfortable and quiet cabin, and it comes
with lots of features that make the ride pretty smooth,
So definitely worth checking out.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
If you're leaning away from Ram do Chevy owners often
get upset that their trucks are not considered comfortable.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
I think It really.

Speaker 7 (45:32):
Depends on the person. A lot of Chevy owners do
find their trucks comfortable, especially with the newer models, but
comfort can be pretty subjective, so it's all about what.

Speaker 6 (45:41):
Feels right to you.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
There you go, and that's how you use AI. Thank
you for the call, Greg, I really appreciate you joining
us on the program. We got you in the drawing
there for the twenty five dollars as well. Team Group
announces that they've got solid state hard drives NVMe drives
now that have quick erasial features. Why is this some
number one? There's two ways you can erase them. There's
the programmatic erase, which allows you to reuse the drive again.

(46:05):
So there's a piece of software. You install the hard
drive and then you install this piece of software in Windows.
And when the police come banging on your door, boom boom, boom,
boom boom, open up police, and you're like, oh no,
it's a raid, and so you hit the button. There's
like a red button. There's a graphic of a red
button and you click on it and you have to
hold it for five seconds. So the police boom boom,

(46:26):
boom boom.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
Bring the bowering ramp.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
Boom boom, and you're just holding this button like ooh,
and then all of a sudden, I don't know what
you're hiding. I have no idea. So then all of
a sudden, it starts doing the programmatic erase, and then
it starts showing the graphic of it erasing your hard
drive and it's really cool. It's erasing my herd drives.
Yah boom. The police say, he's erasing his hard drives. Quick,
unplug everything, right, and then when they plug it back in,

(46:50):
guess what happens? The hard drive immediately starts erasing itself again.
If you take the hard drive out of the computer
and plug it into a data recovery computer, what happens
when they power up the hard drive it begins erasing
it self again. So yeah, super secure destruction. Now, perhaps
that it's kind of ironic because if that's not fast
enough for you, if you hold the button down for

(47:11):
ten seconds, because if speed you're concerned, you have an
extra five seconds. I'm sure, I'm sure it's fine. Hold
it down for ten seconds, and it will send an
over voltage to the nand memory chip on the drive,
causing it to literally catch on fire. It will smoke,
it'll burn the chip out, making all data recovery impossible.
It's literally like the Mission Impossible. Where the envelope goes posh.

(47:32):
There's a little wisp of smoke that comes off the
drive and it's shot. It's done forever. I kind of
want to buy one just to just to fry it,
just to see that happen. Wouldn't that be kind of neat?
That'd be good video. It's expensive video, ity'de be a
good video. All right, we're gonna take our last break here, guys.
When we come back. Apple, Apple's kind of like Santa
these days. He knows if you've been sleeping, he knows
if you're awake, he knows if you're pregnant, he knows

(47:53):
if you're diabetic, he knows if you're infected, knows if
you're injured. So be good for goodness sake, and you
can be good with your Apple Watch. We're going to
tell you how accurate the Apple Watch is detecting all
those specific things coming up next on compute this.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
Remember the good old days when virus detection worked like
where's Waldo? Spot the virus in a striped shirt and
you win. Today's infections are changing hourly to avoid detection
and use social engineering to trick you into making mistakes.
Using yesterday's security to defend against today's threats is like
using leeches to stop an infection. It just doesn't work.

(48:30):
We recommend Sophos intercept X anti virus backed by Shrocks
Virus Free Guarantees. SOFOS uses the power of AI to
detect the patterns of a virus attack and responds with
Shrock's custom actions that stop it fast. With Sofos on
your PC, Mac, Android, or iOS device, you get the
state of the art protection you need to defend against

(48:52):

track of your general fitness. But did you know that
when you are pregnant your gait changes, Like when you
are first pregnant, you change the way you walk. Well,
Apple figured that out. They got a whole bunch of
people together to participate in a health study. It was

(52:19):
all consensual, it wasn't just meal random people. And then
they self reported their medical outcomes at the end of
the period. So they collected the data and then Apple
said or whoever this company was working with, Apple said,
did you have any medical events during the time we
were collecting data? Some people said I got pregnant, Some
people got in ear infection, some people got broke a bone, whatever.

will know if you're pregnant before you do ninety two
