一开始我们以为这将是一个缓慢的新闻周。现在是星期五，我们连续出版了两集Vergecast，涵盖了科技界你需要知道的一切。

总而言之：我们有另一个苹果新产品要谈，一个对高通公司总裁的采访，一个由联邦贸易委员会和48个州的检察长提出的针对Facebook的反垄断诉讼的讨论。（我希望你现在能理解为什么我们把这些分为不同的部分。）

在Vergecast本周第一集的前半部分，Nilay Patel、Dieter Bohn和Chris Welch讨论了苹果新的降噪耳机的发布，AirPods Max.Nilay得以对其进行了短暂的试用，并在节目中给出了自己的第一印象。

下半年，Nilay和Dieter与高通公司总裁Cristiano Amon就高通公司的新旗舰处理器Snapdragon 888、5G的潜力以及他对苹果新M1处理器的看法进行了交谈。

下面是那次谈话的一个小片段：

Dieter Bohn: What less*** could Qualcomm and Microsoft take from what Apple did with the M1?

Cristiano Amon: One of the great things about the M1, the way we look at it, we’re super happy with that announcement. Very happy. And kudos to Apple because it validates our belief. It basically validates our beliefs that, you know, that the mobile user is defining what they expect out of the PC experience.

And when adding Apple to that conversation, you started to see that the ecosystem is moving. Great example: I believe it was probably this week, if not the week before that Adobe announced a bunch of applicati***, that are all ARM native. And once you make it ARM native, performance increases as you have now app compatibility.

So that overall is a very good sign. The ecosystem is going to move and it showed that Microsoft and Qualcomm were in the right trajectory. It’s about battery life, it’s about connected, it’s about a whole different multimedia experience.

尽管对一家主要芯片生产商的总裁的采访已经足够结束了，但我们还是决定在Vergecast上单独播出一集，解释一些相当重要的科技政策新闻。

在我们的第二集中，Nilay与Verge政策编辑Russell Brandom、资深记者Adi Robertson和特约编辑Casey Newton讨论了FTC和48个州的总检察长起诉Facebook的原因、他们提出的反垄断补救措施，以及Instagram与Facebook分离的可能性。
