Geekspeak | Hot Computers, Meta's Answer to Twitter & Starlink Launches

Your favorite geeks Matt McBrayer and Louie Girardot keep listeners up to date on contemporary tech topics and take calls from listeners. On this week's show, Matt and Louie talk about the early mass exodus from Meta's Twitter competitor, Threads, and go in-depth on how to clean and care for your desktop computers and laptops on these dangerously hot summer days. Meanwhile, Matt reveals how his late-night dog-walking routine has led to some sweet glimpses of Starlink satellite launches.

Louie Girardot has been working as an IT professional since 1996 and has weathered a dizzying array of technological innovations since that time. Louie has previously never had a job that lasted this long - which he credits to the incredibly diverse range of industries that he gets to service - there is just never a dull moment. Some of his most interesting projects include a video system that captures video from inside underground sewer lines and a system that integrated two offices - one in New York City and one in Carbondale to function as if under the same roof.
