Not only is the year ending, but the decade is ending, too. So The Verge lists the most influential gadgets in the first decade of its existence. Nilay Patel, Dieter Bohn, and Paul Miller discuss how they picked their favorite gadgets of the decade as well as their process for deciding the list.

But first, we start the show with the release of Apple’s Mac Pro. The crew talks about what they know so far without having tested the computer, including the lack of information on benchmarks and running apps outside of Apple’s ecosystem.

We finish the show with news of Twitter funding research into a decentralized version of its platform. But first, we’re updated on Paul’s weekly segment “Web authen, oh yeah.” So listen through to get it all.
