In this episode of TechWatch Radio, Sam and Jay unpack the jaw-dropping news of Japan’s new internet speed record: 1.02 Petabytes per second - roughly 350,000 times faster than the average U.S. connection. They explore what this milestone means for future real-world use and discuss the diminishing returns of ultra-high bandwidth, especially in talk radio streaming and software design. From audio compression standards to bloated printer drivers, they reflect on how optimization often gets sacrificed as speed increases.
Next, the duo dives into the surprising resurgence of retro computing with a modernized Commodore 64 remake. They debate whether this low-tech-high-tech device is more than nostalgia, potentially paving the way for ultra-affordable, highly capable computing. The conversation rounds out with news that OpenAI is preparing to launch its own AI-powered web browser, built on Chromium, and what that could mean for Google, the future of browsing, and the rise of paid browser ecosystems. They wrap up with a look at Linux’s growing U.S. desktop market share, driven in part by Raspberry Pi adoption and Windows 11 resistance.
