Some of the problems of Twitter are discussed by the guys while Andy shares the importance of selectivity of who you allow to follow or follow yourself. A Change in the “Blue Check Mark” system has some very upset at suddenly paying for the service for Verification. Some wonder if this could signal the end of active social media.

Shawn talks about Building or Upgrading a PC and wonders if we wanted to buy a RTX4090 but shares some of the problems with melted cords on the latest video cards.

Andy has fallen in love with his iPhone 14 ProMax that was provided by Apple but wants to return it and buy his own but now the 14 ProMax is not available, on back order, for a couple of weeks. Andy does share a strange problem that happened with the Pro Max. The new Face ID system locked him out when he had the phone in his pocket. He got the Message iPhone Unavailable, Try again in 49 Minutes. It’s a security feature to prevent logging in if somebody else had your phone. Andy tells us about the solution which really was either to Erase the phone and start over or wait the required time. Shawn tells us about his forgotten Time Lapse, he set up the camera and it ran for 11 days shot with an older GoPro Hero 3 . You can view the Time lapse on our blog at blog.techtalkradio.com
