Time to kick off Halloween week with a regular episode of The Lazy Geeks. Scary, isn’t it? While many of these stories didn’t appear on the blog, there was a lot of good stuff. One thing we did differently was the “Group Chat” topic. We discuss the ongoing war on Adobe and Sony, mostly from hackers. We still managed to keep everything under an hour.

Much of the headlines deals with later in the week news. Bioware shutting down to hacks on Nintendo and Sony. Of course, because of social media, we are talking speculation of PlayStation and Project Helix pricing. The PHP exploit that was uncovered. The biggest news story of the week, YouTube hiding the “dislike” button.

In the “Group Chat”, we recorded this recently. Something that was out of order. Adam and I record the conversations well in advance. However, discussion ArtCraft and AnyPS5 seemed timely and I needed to hear what Adam thought about the topics. Also, how we have no sympathy for Sony, Adobe, and Microsoft.

Douchebag of the Week:

Clickbait Star Wars: Starfighter Story (Forbes)

Our douchebag of the week comes from a complete clickbait heading, that has started the internet trashing Star Wars yet again. There is a decision that I have made regarding the set-up of the show. However, I think I will leave that for next week. Until then, enjoy The Lazy Geeks: War on Adobe and Sony.
