    This Week in Tech 582: Who's Capping Who?

    With Leo on vacation, Becky Worley takes the big chair. We discuss predictions about Google's big event next week, Samsung's exploding washing machines, Elon Musk's plans for getting to Mars, women in tech, who should buy Twitter, and the next wave in DDOS attacks. On October 4th, Google will (hopefully) announce two new Pixel-branded phones, their new Andromeda OS, the Echo-competitor Google Home, and more.Samsung's PR image goes from bad to worse - just as new, non-exploding versions of the Galaxy Note 7are coming out, Samsung washing machines are apparently exploding.Elon Musk detailed his plans to send people to Mars in the next 6 years. This may be a bit far-fetched, and Owen JJ Stone has a few suggestions of where Mr. Musk's money and energy might be better spent.The Wall Street Journal published an editorial advising women to hide their gender to improve their chances of getting hired for Silicon Valley firms. Our panel has a few choice words to say about that.Does it make sense for Disney to buy Twitter? Becky thinks so, but Jason thinks someone else would be a better fit.As many as a million IoT devices were part of a DDOS attack on security expert's Brian Krebs' website. Is this the future of hacking?

    The New Screen Savers 73: Water on Europa

    Jason Howell and Scott Wilkinson talk with Kieren McCarthy from The Register about the US giving up control of DNS to ICANN. We're joined by two scientists, William Sparks and Jennifer Wiseman, to talk about the discovery of water on Europa and what this could mean when it comes to finding life on this moon of Jupiter. Next Saturday, October 8th, athletes with assistive technologies will compete against each other at the Cybathlon and Robert Riener, the founder and director, is here to discuss. Four U.S. states filed a lawsuit to stop the U.S. from giving up control of DNS to ICANN. Some see the role American provided as purely administrative. Kieren, Jason and Scott discuss the possible politics in play. Learn how the team uses ultraviolet light and other imagery to find water on Europa. They share how the discovery was made and where this fits into the overall scope of NASA and life in outer space. We learn how Cybathlon athletes with disabilities are using the latest technologies at the intersection of machine and man. We also discuss the future of transhumanism. Ron Richards has a cool tool he uses for web development. Patrick Norton has some advice when it comes to surge protectors. Scott will answer a Call for Help about cutting the cord and over-the-air DVRs Hosts: Jason Howell and Scott Wilkinson Guests: Kieren McCarthy, Jennifer Wiseman, William Sparks, Patrick Norton, Robert Riener, and Ron Richards The New Screen Savers is available for download and streaming at https://twit.tv/shows/new-screen-savers.
