Apple has no shame… breaks down the ongoing competition between Google and Apple over messaging, highlighting how Google publicly pressures Apple to adopt Rich Communication Services (RCS) so Android and iPhone users can share features similar to iMessage. The host frames Google’s campaign as public shaming via a dedicated website and the GetTheMessage hashtag, arguing that Apple is unlikely to change its stance soon despite the public push. The segment also notes Apple’s focus on internal improvements, such as restoring battery percentage visibility in iOS, while briefly covering related tech news like Samsung’s Galaxy devices and the CHIPS and Science Act. The discussion then shifts to lighter quick bits, including Vessi’s everyday move shoes, rumors about NVIDIA’s RTX 4070, and Google Fiber’s rumored expansion, before returning to governance and science stories like the Tornado Cash sanctions and an ink-based encoding of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by UT Austin researchers. Overall, the video portrays a mix of consumer tech politics, product previews, and quirky science anecdotes, ending with a call back to Friday’s show and a playful reminder that the team is a tech news machine rather than a perfect, always-on channel.
