About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges facing Apple's Mac Mini, GameStop's bold acquisition bid, and alarming surveillance practices involving Google and DHS.

A chip shortage and AI-driven demand spike are making Apple's Mac Mini harder to get and more expensive by the day. DHS reportedly pressured Google to hand over location data on a foreign critic of ICE who hasn't stepped foot in the US in over a decade — and the legal tool they used will raise your eyebrows. GameStop's CEO is swinging for the fences with an unsolicited $56 billion bid to acquire eBay, aiming to build an Amazon rival out of a company that was once synonymous with mall kiosks. Meanwhile, Uber is quietly transforming into something much bigger than a ride-hailing app, Tesla hit a milestone Elon Musk once called the key to full autonomy, and NASA has major news on two very different ends of the space timeline.
