## Resource

Host Joe Progran delivers a rapid roundup of the latest tech and AI headlines, from a mysterious thin atmosphere on a distant trans‑Neptunian object to Apple striking a manufacturing pact with Intel under government influence. The episode also covers SpaceX’s towering Starship V3 launch preparations, Google’s push for orbital data centers and Gemini‑powered Android upgrades, and GameStop’s audacious but rejected $56 billion bid for eBay. Finally, we hear about Amazon’s “tokenmaxxing” AI antics and the broader scramble to embed AI across devices, all wrapped in a witty, coffee‑fuelled commentary.
