This episode summary was written before the launch of The Nexus.
On Friday night, we had a little bit of toner trouble. Matthew Petschl could not join me tonight to cover this week’s tech news but that’s fine, I did it anyway, but this time with proper volume and more toner. It’s been a busy week for both of us with finals, so we were a little slow to gather the news, so I just picked some relatively random stories from the short time I had in between studying. Additionally, you must experience the toner disaster.
