A special episode where the t3chies reminisce about the technologies we grew up with and the early days of the internet. Do people still play with virtual pets? -—- All sounds are used under Fair Use as illustrative of the larger point & fall under the copyright of the owners of the respective software. This episode’s title track is an 8-bit chiptune version of our usual title track, [Pay No Mind](https://soundcloud.com/djfelixm/pay-no-m-i-n-d-wip) by DJ Felix.

Boy, are we glad to be back! Just two of us this week, and we bring you everything drones. Tune in to hear our resident drone expert Sheban break down all you need to know, current & future trends in drone tech and what needs to happen to make drone logistics a mainstream reality. Partha should be back for our next episode. Chirag apologises for his poor sounding audio.

The t3chies review the news that ride sharing platform Careem reported a security breach that took place on Jan 14, compromising potentially 14 million user & 558,000 driver accounts. We also talk about how to better manage your passwords & take our first #askt3chtree question from Judhi Prasetyo.

The techies try to break down the complexities around 3D printing how additive manufacturing differs from subtractive, and how to get started. Sheban & Partha share what they’ve been doing in the field of 3D printing—from fuselages to rovers. Our title track is [Pay No Mind](https://soundcloud.com/djfelixm/pay-no-m-i-n-d-wip) by [DJ Felix M.](https://soundcloud.com/djfelixm)

We review the news that Cambridge Analytica used data collected via Facebook to potentially influence voter preferences. We also talk about what could this mean for users, whether it’s realistic to actually #deletefacebook, and things you should be aware of even if you feel you have nothing to hide.
