Pixel Phones Finally Blowing Up – WAN Show Oct 17, 2025

Linus and Luke kick things off with a bang (literally) as the Pixel 10 Pro Fold pulls a JRE-byebug and catches fire, sparking a debate on whether foldables are overpriced luxury or the future—and yeah, there’s some iPhone vs. Android smack talk, plus a detour into how Discord helped Nepal pick leaders. They also riff on embracing failure as a workout, skim AI overviews (or dodge them), and dive deep into Capcom’s stubborn refusal to remaster classics like FF Tactics and Oblivion.

On deck: HP quietly yanks support docs for ancient hardware, Philips’ “Fixables” fizzle despite great PR, and a nasty secure-boot bypass hits 200K Linux Framework laptops. Toss in Apple’s M5 chip tease and Vision Pro 2 gossip, Bose killing SoundTouch, ChatGPT freak-outs over horse emojis, crypto-ransom debates, LTT cables finally dropping before Black Friday, and a sprinkle of random dad life advice. Tech tea never tasted so good.
