VIDEO REPLAY ON TWITCH!

Happy Monday! The FCC is still in deadlock, but that might be changing soon. Twitter is still cash flow negative. Threads engagement might be slipping. Google is losing AR talent. Sony and Microsoft sign a deal on Call of Duty. Intel is killing the NUC. And I've spent a weekend with the Pixel Fold and the Pixel Tablet! Time for my COMPLETE long term review! Let's get our tech week started right! Direct link to me CHUCKING my Surface Duo!

A portion of this coverage was made possible thanks to the #TeamPixel folks and a #GiftFromGoogle. They provided the Pixel Fold and Pixel Tablet for me to review and share my earnest thoughts. There has been no influence or communication from Google or their PR in altering my editorial process.
