Those are wasted magnets.

you know it's it's usually stuff that's less interesting to a podcast like ours it's like we're gonna try to get a bunch of like youtube creators to use our new version of final cut or whatever like it's it's that type of thing so it would totally make sense now for this one especially given the timing of the embargoes dropping today for the new creative suite or whatever it's called

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

it's creator that's right it's totally separate from adobe creative suite it's a studio it's definitely you know acs it's different it's a different acs it's it's it's not adobe creative suite it's apple creative creator studio totally totally different academic computing system yeah um anyway so yeah it makes sense that this was not related and we look we might be getting m5 macbook pros tomorrow for all we know but it's not related to this event

All these years, I figured it was Brown's Tickle.
