    Have They Always Been Listening and Following Our Every Move? | The Algorithm

    In Episode 4 of The Bare Minimum Show, Michael, Mike, and Ryan dive headfirst into the mysterious world of the algorithm. From the early days of basic sorting and rankings to today’s eerily accurate “how did it know that?” moments — we break down how algorithms evolved and why it feels like our phones know us better than we know ourselves. Are they listening? Are they watching? Or are we just that predictable?Either way… you won’t want to miss this one. 🍻 Sponsored by:• JCI Electric• Van’s Liquor Store• Badass Beard Care• Doiche Foods 👍 Like, subscribe, and drop a comment letting us know — coincidence or conspiracy? #TheBareMinimumShow #Podcast #Algorithm #TechTalk #ConspiracyTalk #AreTheyListening #ModernTechnology #AI #DigitalAge #PodcastLife #YouTubePodcast #BareMinimum #Sponsors #SupportLocal

    From 8-Bit to Online: We Were There

    We grew up blowing on cartridges… and now we’re downloading updates bigger than the games we started with. How did we get here? In this episode, we take a trip through the evolution of video games — from the early days of 8-bit and cartridges, through the N64 era, into the golden age of couch co-op with PS2, Xbox, and GameCube, and finally into the online world that changed gaming forever. We break down the consoles, the games that defined generations, and debate whether gaming was actually better back then… or if that’s just nostalgia talking. If you grew up with a controller in your hand, this one’s for you. 👇 Drop a comment and tell us: What game defined YOUR generation?
