TechTime with Nathan Mumm | 159: Windows 365 in the Cloud, Meta launches Quest+, and Whiskey Myths | Airdate: 6-27-23

Curious about the buzz around Microsoft’s move to cloud-based Windows? Allow us to clear the air. As we peel back the layers of Windows 365, we shed light on its advantages and potential drawbacks, illuminating how it’s reshaping the tech landscape. Along the way, we also expose the virus in the Super Mario game that’s spreading Windows malware, reveal the secret to making money on TikTok, and unpack the claims about Amazon’s handling of prime customers.

And if you thought we were just tech buffs, think again. We take a break from gadgets and bytes to debunk some of the most popular myths about whiskey, with the help of our whiskey guru, Marc. We address some half-truths about this beloved spirit, underscoring that while it may delight the senses, it’s not a miraculous antidote for weight loss, stress, or memory issues. And since we’re all for a bit of fun and games, we also ponder on the allure of celebrity cage fights, particularly the much-hyped showdown between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

To cap off this exciting journey, we invite you to join the TechTime Radio community. We have a wealth of content awaiting you on our YouTube channel, offering you unparalleled insights into the latest in tech.
