Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
Yeah, I also forgot I needed to put a puff.
Yeah, I've noticed that I've been puffing into the microphone because my mouth is so full.
I guess when you, especially when you speak in English.
That's right.
And puff and those sounds.
That's right.
Very strong, huh?
Very strong.
Yeah.
Very strong.
And I feel like that's the key.
There you go.
Great.
All right.
Of being sounded like native English.
Oh, yeah, right. That's right.
It's way puffer than Japanese.
Yeah.
Potter! Harry Potter!
Yeah.
That was a joke on TikTok.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
What was that?
How the bad guy.
Yeah, the snake, the Malfoy.
Yeah, Malfoy. Malfoy pronounces Harry Potter.
Yeah.
That was how he did it.
That's true.
So you got a new.
That's right.
New laptop.
I got myself a new laptop.
Great.
Oh, yeah.
How's that?
Yeah, I got it refurbished.
Yeah.
You know the refurbishment, right?
Yeah.
And it was not bad.
Not bad at all.
Not the newest one.
Definitely not.
M1 chip.
Okay.
Yeah, I think right now it's like M3 is the latest.
Oh, M3.
M3 is the latest.
But I got myself an M1 chip.
But I feel like that's enough.
More than enough.
Yeah.
More than enough.
Yeah, I mean.
Every, you know how.
So there's all these videos of like comparing what's the current model is, right?
The M1 MacBook and like the one before or like maybe we've been one before.
And every year they make those videos, right?
And the reviews be like.
So yeah, they're all great.
But like, hey, if you're going for a heavy, you know, rendering, if you're making videos,
if you're like color correcting pictures or I don't know, maybe music.
Yeah, definitely go for the highest end model like the Pro and everything.
Yeah.
But like the lowest one you're talking about right now, five years ago was the high end model
where all the people were like, hey, if you're going for like the creative works, get this one.
Yeah.
But like, has it has it changed five years ago on what we're doing on the laptops?
Not really.
We're just doing the same processing thing.
So I mean, it doesn't mean like, you know, after five years, it's the work has gone much heavier
and like that, right?
It's the same.
So I was like, I'm sure I'll be fine.
Yeah.
With like the.
Absolutely.
Yeah, the lowest.
What was the lowest processor I could find in the market right now for that was M1.
And M1 at the moment when it came out was like.
03:00
People were like, wow, that's great.
You can do anything with this.
You can, you can render all the movies and process everything.
Wow, M1 is a new thing.
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
More than enough.
Yeah.
More than enough.
Yeah.
Right.
And it's, it's great that I have, um, I, I'm, um, that I have all my stuff here.
You know, the iPad thing was, I just, all the files were in.
Oh.
At home.
Right.
With my actual desktop, my laptop.
Which has.
My screen crashed.
But now I'm carrying all this.
Yeah.
I can do like the full work anywhere now.
True.
Yeah.
You can access to everything you want.
Every file.
Everything you got.
That's right.
And that's, that's good.
I like that.
I like that.
And is it like, um, light enough to carry around?
Yeah.
Heavier than iPad.
Well, of course.
Yeah.
But light enough.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not bad.
Oh, it's very light.
Very light.
Lighter than I thought actually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you own a PC, uh, Windows PC?
No.
No.
So I have a friend that uses like a Windows PC and I was, uh, having a lunch with that
person.
Right.
And he was like, oh, like, oh, let me, I just got to do a little bit of a quick, let me
just, let me just do a quick work for that.
Yeah.
And he, and he had a Windows PC.
Okay.
And you know what?
Have you touched a Windows PC recently?
Not recently.
It is very, very light.
Oh, is it?
Yeah.
Like it made me think this MacBook Air is fucking unbelievably heavy.
It was so light.
It was so light.
As light as this man, the same screen size as this MacBook Air, but like the weight of
an iPhone.
Wow.
You know, it's unbelievable how light recently.
Is that like very light model?
Uh, I don't know.
I don't know.
Or is it just the usual?
Probably a usual one.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Maybe lighter ones, but I, I don't know, but that's like, it's not special, you know?
Yeah.
It's just.
Get it.
It was casually just there.
So.
Yeah.
I mean, true.
Me too.
I use those Mac things for a very long time.
Yeah.
But if you think of a whole laptop world, MacBook things are very tiny, like, like this
world.
Right.
And if you look around, you've got many options out there.
So many options.
So much cheaper.
Yeah.
Actually the specs are better.
Yeah.
You know, cheaper and better.
Screen is better.
The one you can, you can move like that, like that way.
Yeah.
Falling and all that LG and all that stuff.
Right.
Yeah.
You can write on a screen.
Right.
You can.
Yeah.
That's true.
Not to mention we did like the foldable ones too, right?
We had them in our hands and.
06:00
Yeah.
I know, right?
That's true.
Yeah.
So.
Siri is a joke, you know?
Siri.
Oh, you don't use Siri.
I don't use Siri, but.
Siri is a joke.
Joke.
We're like chat GPT and co-pilots there.
That's true.
Joke.
Yeah.
You're using Siri all the time?
Yeah.
I use Siri.
Well, I want to utilize it more, but because it's so not capable, I just use it for like,
wake up times or timers or stuff like that.
That's all.
Me too.
I have an iPad.
Yeah.
That can use the Siri.
Yeah.
And what I do with Siri is just a time up.
That's right.
That's a joke.
2024.
Hey Siri, save me a time of five minutes.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's all.
That's all I can ask it to do.
Yeah.
Like something complex.
No, like here's what I found on the web.
That's what they give you.
That is true.
Yeah.
Is there any way that can utilize Siri to like do things?
The real things?
Sure.
So the thing is, you know, iPhone 16.
Oh, is that 16 now?
iPhone 16 was, uh, the information was released.
I think it's going to come out next week or something.
Okay.
So what it said was finally Siri is going to get an up update.
Okay.
To, uh, Apple intelligence is what they call it.
Yeah.
So, and supposedly that's very, that's like an AI.
Okay.
It's like a chat GPD, but like Apple version.
So it's like finally capable of doing many things.
That's right.
Hopefully that's what they're saying is going to happen.
Right, right, right.
So access to many things.
So like maybe send a message through.
Yeah, I think so.
Applications.
You know, maybe, Hey, like call, like call Yamachan.
Maybe hopefully they can do it, you know?
Yeah.
Or like, so on the present, the commercial, on the commercial, they were like,
you can, they'll automatically look through all the emails and be like,
when was the party invitation due?
That's great.
And then the, and then the AI, the Siri could be like, Hey, so on your email, it says that
Sam's party invitation is due.
The response is due when?
That's great.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's great.
And even like look through all the pictures.
Hey, send grandma the barbecue photos I took yesterday.
Really?
Yeah.
So it'd be like, Hey, do you, so you want me to send these photos?
Oh my God.
Yeah.
That's great.
Pretty convenient, right?
That's great.
Huge upgrade, huge upgrade.
Finally feel like.
Yeah.
That's what Siri supposed to do.
Yeah.
It's catching up to the AI.
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah.
And it's coming in next week, next week.
Okay.
So here's another fucked up, um, concept.
iPhone 16 is going to come out and iPhone 16 is the only phone out of all the iPhones that
09:00
are, I think is capable of the, uh, Apple intelligent.
Okay.
But when it, when the actual phone comes out, Apple intelligence is not ready.
It's got to wait for an update several months later.
Then it gets, then the iPhone 16 finally gets the Apple intelligence.
That's really, I don't know why they didn't.
Is that something the company like Apple should do like it's just, it's just, I know.
Right.
It's just like what we do, like how we set up like things and it can't made it in the
deadline.
They can't make it a deadline.
And so the, so yeah, it's not going to be ready when the actual phone is released on
the market.
Yeah.
It's got to wait for an update.
Okay.
And a few months later, maybe that, that iPhone could use that, that AI thing.
No, I'm not sure.
Maybe.
I'm not sure.
And I can't play it and things.
Uh, maybe.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Wow.
But, but that sounds great though.
Yeah.
What it's capable of doing.
Yeah.
Sounds great.
Sounds good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm excited.
I'm excited for that.
I'm surprised that it's 16 now.
Oh, like, so it's gone so far.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's 16 now.
Yeah.
What is your, yours?
I think mine is, um, 13 or 14.
Oh, but it's 13, 14.
Oh, didn't know.
Yeah.
It's minus my 14.
Okay.
Yeah.
I feel like 10, like six S E something.
That's a while back.
Very back.
Yeah.
It's like several.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
I remember like six S E was starting.
10, 10, something like 10 pro.
Yeah.
10 of the others.
Yeah.
Right now we're 16.
16.
Yeah.
I wonder how this is going to end, you know?
Yeah.
I wonder how, you know, right.
It can't go forever.
Right.
Like, I wonder how it's going to like this cycle is going to end.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Are you planning to get one?
The 16?
No, I'm not going to get the 16.
No.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
You got a new laptop.
Right.
I just got myself a new laptop.
So yeah.
How is it so far?
Great.
Very good.
Yeah.
Very good.
Battery's good.
Battery's healthy.
Like it goes down.
It goes down as I use it.
So that's good.
Yeah.
That's good.
Yeah.
That's good.
That's very natural.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, like how I want it to be, you know?
Like I would know when I should charge the device.
Like, yeah.
When do you charge your device?
Like at how many percentage would you be like, oh, I should probably plug it in?
A laptop.
Your phone.
My phone.
Yeah.
Every night recently.
12:00
So it doesn't matter how low it is.
Yeah.
Even if it was like 60%, you still like plug it in.
If it's like six.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's like a routine of every night.
Yeah.
That's what I do.
I see.
But I'm doubting about it.
Like it's bad for a battery?
Yeah.
That's what I heard of.
Yeah.
Probably is.
Right.
Probably is.
Yeah.
Shouldn't charge.
If I got like 60, 70 and then charge it, it's going to ruin my battery.
Right.
You should wait until like 30 or 20.
Yeah.
And then overcharging is bad too.
Right, right, right.
So the charging is going to be done at like, I don't know, 3 a.m. or something, 4 a.m.
Right.
Like until you wake up, it's plugged into that.
Right.
So you ideally want to unplug that.
Ideally though.
Yeah.
Okay.
Then I feel like I'm doing a very bad thing.
For him, but.
I mean, he survived a long time, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right.
Like first year, first few months, first year, I didn't charge this guy every night.
Okay.
I've been waiting until he's got like 20, 10 percent.
Because he cared.
Yeah.
But right now I feel like.
Like it's just.
Yeah.
You chose convenience.
Yeah, when I don't charge this guy at night, he has like 50, 60.
And the next day, I feel a little bit like less energy inside.
And like 50 from the beginning of the day.
So yeah, that's what I do.
Right, right.
How do you do with that guy?
Yeah, I usually, right now, don't charge my phone at night.
I do it in the morning.
Oh, in the morning.
Yeah.
So usually when I sleep, it's around like 40 or 50.
And I wake up, it's like, I don't know, like 35 or 45, something like that.
And then I charge in the morning and it gets up to like 80 or 90.
I see.
Like in an hour or so.
And then you put it out.
And then you put it out, yeah.
That's my routine right now.
True.
That sounds more healthier.
Yeah, yeah.
Without any overcharge.
Yeah, yeah.
But you know, if you buy a Kyusoku, if you Kyusoku at a powerful rate,
well, that's bad for a battery too, is what they say.
Yeah, yeah.
So it's kind of like the balance is really difficult.
Okay, okay.
But I would try that one, like a morning thing.
Right, right, right, yeah.
Because if you stay in the house for like a.m. time.
It wouldn't be a problem.
Yeah, it's no problem at all.
Yeah, yeah.
Right, right, great.
All right, thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
