if Alex and/or David ever leave, or they are on holidays, the best person to replace them is Alex Heath: he fits the vibe 100% and his viewpoints add to the conversation
Re: Microsoft being distracted by legal stuff: well maybe they shouldn't have been a fucking monopoly! Like idk man, they can't cause trouble then complain when trouble comes. Kinda felt like you guys danced around that a bit.
I think you guys are way too optimistic that any remedy would actually change anything in the future. who was the original antitrust Target? Standard Oil! you know what Standard Oil is called today? Exxon-Mobil! sure, there are other smaller energy companies out there that came from the breakup but let's face it, Exxon Mobil is by far the largest and not all that different from what Standard Oil started out as. Remember how the phone company was broken up? And now they're all getting back together again! It's not as if Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&t are worried about competition from each other. these days. They all pretty much have aligned their services and prices. Remember how Microsoft was enjoined from forcing Internet explorer on people on Windows? How many times have you been nagged about using the Edge browser on your Windows system? My prediction is that Google is going to Google no matter what the government enjoins them from doing. it's just the way American Business works.
can we talk about how google is shoving gemini into everything and yet it's probably the worst llm on the market?? i tried switching assistant to gemini on my phone and it literally never does anything i asked it to do
Feel bad for the law clerk probably one or two yrs out of law school who had to write a 300 page opinion that’s probably destined to get overturned on appeal.
The two legal cases presented side-by-side stand in unfortunate contrast in this show. Google's shown with objectivity, analysis, insight, and information; X's shown without much of anything other than ad hominem attacks and a sudden overuse of the word "weird." Vergecast suffers because you can't keep your politics buttoned up. Tighten the bolts a bit for the good of us all.
What are you guys talking about? Bing is not Bad, its actually good, try the queries in both search engines, I dont see any difference. What it suffers from is a bad name, seriously Bing is a bad name.
Get over the Bing nonsense it is just a browser like any other works fine. I use Bing, Firefox and chrome. I alternate between them. The real me is on Bing. You are not cool just because you say you do not use the Bing browser. Some of these tech tubers are just plain ridiculous in the things they think is cool to say.
So it’s finally official - “Judge Patel”!
Soon - Senator Patel
Later - President Patel!

Was worried there wasn't going to be a vergecast this week. So glad we got one.
Yeah, same. I had just gotten all sad when I refreshed my subscriptions and BOOM! Have a great weekend, stranger!
The editor forgot to cut so many retakes in this episode… lol
Yeah, poor whoever who had to rush this edit out of the door 😂
I love that Bing is at the butt end of jokes in a case concerning Google being evil. What a time to be alive.
the Verge been waiting on Google's demise for a while now niliay is beaming
21:00 - That reminds me of all those horrible phone games that charge money to win the game.

*Will RUclips be affected by Google?*
I am curious, why does all 4 clocks on Lauren's wall show different times?
Awesome Podcast 💯✌️
I'm sure someone has already mentioned, but the Shield hasn't been updated since 2019. I always see people pining for a new one Discord and Reddit.

Elon, when genius starts to curdle. He should just stick to genius things.

@10:36 “Apple pays Google…” What?!?

The bias against Twitter is off the charts.
