With online WWDC2020, I bet there’ll be a lot pre-recorded and produced, maybe by the AppleTV people? :)
JeffG
16:15:01
That’s awesome, Joe!
Majikman
16:15:30
Not getting any feed, is just me again?
DeepPan
16:16:00
On Joe’s feed, with the Skype icon, the sign reads “iMena macs” :D
DeepPan
16:16:19
fixed, now the sign has dropped :D
Joe
16:16:59

Joe
16:28:33
@DeepPan we don’t want that, or @iMendSigns
bobbeach
16:29:26
I can still watch the keynote stream so Its fine by me
DeepPan
16:30:28
I’d guess running WWDC online only will make it a lot cheaper to produce
Majikman
16:31:39
Dont worry about this small stuff, is the Bash going ahead.
DeepPan
16:32:18
Apple can offer to book facetime sessions to replace the one-to-one meetings

most will catch it, feel rough, isolate, fight of infection, build up immunity. Just have to be very careful about passing it to people with weaker immune systems
Joe

Also a Well known “Adult” website is giving everyone in Italy a free access of their “Hub”

Apple can easily cope with a temporary fall in demand
bobbeach
16:47:33
I don't think they are bothered about a temporary fall in the dahre price
Majikman
16:47:45
Gonna be a good time to buy shares coming up.
Joe
16:47:50
NO Credit Card needed....
Majikman
16:49:25
Work too well so it makes the others uncompetitive
bobbeach
16:49:28
It's now only stupidly expensive rather than ludicrously expensive
bobbeach
16:52:31
From what I can see, in the smartwatch market nothing else comes close to the Apple Watch
DeepPan
16:52:38
“Apple - The rest are a little bit crap” perfect tagline, @Ewen :D

Hi DeepPan
DeepPan
20:05:38
There isn’t any news, so this should be a quick show :D
DeepPan
20:07:01
No corona in this story
SwampRat
20:08:28
My state, Louisiana, is closing all K-12 schools until April 13th.
DeepPan
20:09:11
I’m sure there are lots of ins and outs to the story, before it gets around to blaming Trump! :D
SwampRat
20:09:38
tRump is a mental case
SwampRat
20:11:59

DeepPan

Kids either at home around multi generational families, or out playing with their mates
DeepPan

UNCLEAN!!!!
SwampRat
20:12:56
People may think I have it, what with the cough I've had since the esophagus surgery and all the follow up esophageal dilations.
DeepPan
20:13:21
Covid parties, same as the measles parties? :D
SwampRat
20:13:40
I don't get out much anyway
SwampRat
20:15:41
My next dilation procedure is April 3rd.
DeepPan
20:17:26
Greenie is looking rough! :D
DeepPan
20:19:10
@campionuk, good to see you back :)
SwampRat
20:22:59
Well, gonna miss the show after all. Mom was watching news on TV, now wants to go to the grocery store, for a "just in case" shopping trip.
Ewen

BOG ROLL @swamprat
SwampRat
20:26:04
Had to "Bing" Bog Roll. Think we have enough of that, just may need more edibles.
DeepPan
20:27:43
I can see a lot of companies being forced into remote working, and realising it works fine and can save money, and keeping it
DeepPan
20:28:56
I’ve worked from home for about the last 10 years, with occassional visits to clients. I’d never want to go back to an office Monday to Friday
DeepPan
20:29:39
Something like MS Teams is very important for something like this to work

Hello all
Ewen
20:35:32
Hi Tom
campionuk
20:37:10
Hi Tom
TomF
20:37:49
Agree with you guys. Meetings often devolve and it’s important to optimize which meetings you keep, which ones you dump, who attends,... frequently
DeepPan
20:39:43
The downside can be having everyone and their friend on a conference call. I always look at an invite and work out the man/hours tied up in that call.
TomF
20:40:00
Exactly what we’ve done Ewen Big focus on telecon best practices as we prepare to shut offices
patrice
20:40:11
I do that too @DeepPan And sometimes I estimate the cost too
DeepPan
20:40:36
Plus, if the meeting doesn’t have an agenda sent in advance, or it does and there’s nothing I’m needed for, I’ll decline and explain wht
DeepPan
20:40:40
why
TomF
20:41:21
We had to buy hundreds of free-standing monitor stands so people could take their big monitors home. Stands at work clamp to the desk
patrice
20:41:36
Wish I could always do that @DeepPan but I tend to do that too
TomF
20:42:04
You guys are talking about my life this week!!!
DeepPan
20:42:53
I’m use Teams a lot with a couple of team members, leave the call open for anything up to half a day, we might chat about work, social, similar to if we were at desks next to each other
