Welcome to ケビン's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
What's up?
What's up?
How have you been doing, man?
Been good.
Good?
Good?
Yeah.
I mean, honestly, peacefully.
Peaceful?
Good.
No, that's good, man.
Yeah.
You know, after the live concert, that was my busiest, toughest week.
Really?
Was it that busy?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Getting prepared for all that, too?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh.
But it's done.
Wow.
Like...
Peaceful.
Peaceful.
Calming.
Yes, yes.
Mind-easing.
Yes.
That's good.
Like dripping coffee, sipping coffee, looking up to the blue sky days, you know?
Oh, okay.
That's nice.
Yeah, yeah.
That's nice.
That's nice.
That's nice.
Like sometimes get a little walk to the park days.
Nice.
Like that Ojiichan style.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Reading some books.
Oh.
Days.
Ojiichan style.
I love that.
I love that.
Drinking Sayu at morning days, you know?
Ojiichan style, huh?
I love that.
You know, Ojiichan knows it all.
Ojiichan knows it all.
He knows everything.
He does everything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like ultimate happiness, right?
True.
He knows everything.
I feel so, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I got my phone back.
Yeah.
My photo's back.
Video's back.
Yeah.
Did you save it in other places so that even if you lose it again, you'll be like safe?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, they provide with like, you know.
Like a backup.
So, yeah.
Oh, got it.
I copied to my place in it.
Yeah.
Good idea.
Yeah.
Good idea.
Yeah.
Right, right, right, right.
I do that too.
I regularly backup my.
Oh, that's important.
Yeah.
PC.
PC.
PC.
PC.
PC.
PC.
PC.
Yeah.
PC.
Phone.
iPad.
Yeah, great.
Oh, even the PC, you do that?
Even PC.
Oh.
That's right.
You never know what would happen, right?
Just backup your PC too.
True.
You have all your works in there, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is it backed up by a cloud or?
No.
In your hard drive?
Yes, hard drive.
Yes.
Oh, so like you have a separate.
External.
External hard drive.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
It's not bad then.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Have you ever had your PC broken?
Not actually.
Fortunately.
Wow.
Yeah, maybe.
Lucky you.
I mean, I had it broken several times.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
It's just getting old and getting slower and slower.
Okay.
And then I buy a new one.
That's my cycle.
I mean, I don't say cycle.
It's just like twice.
Right.
Yeah.
But.
Do you have a very powerful PC, you say?
Yes.
Right now, yes.
You have a Mac?
Yes.
Book?
Or just a Mac?
Mac.
Book Pro.
MacBook Pro?
Yes.
Oh, okay.
Got it.
Yes.
03:00
I used to have Mac.
Oh, like a huge one.
Like a desktop Mac.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But it's getting like slower and slower.
Oh, okay.
And that doesn't.
Yeah.
So I changed to the new one because I want it to be portable so that I can bring that machine
to anywhere and I can do things.
Like outside?
Oh, so you make music outside too?
Yeah.
Sometimes.
Like outside from my room because sometimes I have to bring it to the live house, for
example.
Oh, got it.
Or like studio.
I see.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that didn't fit to the style.
Oh, I see.
You know, the desktop.
Yeah.
I feel like recently, technology is like hardwares, like especially Mac devices.
Yeah.
They tend to wear off faster than several years ago, don't you think?
Several years ago, when we were in college, Apple products lasted longer.
You had like a mini MacBook, right?
Yeah.
Like a 13-inch MacBook Air?
Yes.
A tiny one?
Yeah.
That lasted for a long time, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Like almost close to 10 years.
Right.
You can hardly expect a product nowadays to last that long.
Really?
Right?
Wow.
I feel like it became too, what, like too sensible?
Maybe.
Too fragile?
Maybe.
Maybe.
Well, some say that they deliberately slow down your PC so that you'd rebuy a new one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Get you hooked in that cycle.
That's what some people say.
Right.
Yeah.
I heard it too.
Like not only like Mac PCs, but including every gap, like curtains and everything.
Oh, like fridge.
Yeah.
Microwaves.
Microwaves.
They intentionally make some like a limit so that they will...
Rebuy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's terrible.
That's a rumor.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Other rumors say that iPhones have this special...
It's not this typical screw.
Okay.
You can't...
It's a star-shaped...
You need a star-shaped screwdriver to undo an iPhone.
When you look at it, it's star-shaped.
Oh.
Yeah.
So you can't...
You can't undo it.
Repair your iPhones by yourself.
Yeah.
You can't.
You can't.
You have to buy this special screwdriver.
If you look at it, it's actually star-shaped.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Right.
So that maybe you can...
Have to buy a new, whole new iPhone.
Yeah.
Right.
Maybe bring to the factory.
Yeah.
You have to bring it to the factory.
Or when you break it, you can't repair it, so you have to buy a new one.
Yeah.
Oh.
Terrible.
Yeah.
It's terrible, right?
I don't know mine.
Yours don't even have screws on?
No.
Oh.
Maybe inside.
That's a great design.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
06:00
Yeah.
Recently, I...
So as I like taking kind of day off, I feel like I'm taking day off for a few weeks.
Okay.
Of course, I do regular things.
