Welcome to another episode of Yappin N Shxt! 

In today's episode:  

• Baseball world series and fun facts!
• American Airlines is testing a new technology that audibly alerts passengers if someone tries to board before their group is allowed.
• The new system makes a loud alert sound when an out-of-order boarding pass is recognized, taking the pressure off the gate agent to confront the passenger.
• American Airlines said the system is testing well at its trial airports in Albuquerque, Tucson, and Washington, DC.
• Thanks to a ruling by the US Copyright Office on Friday, you’re less likely to encounter a broken McFlurry machine starting today.
• The machines’ software is copyrighted work; the DMCA states that only the manufacturer of such equipment can bypass the digital locks to provide maintenance.
• Franchise owners can hire outside help to fix the machines instead of waiting on the manufacturer, Taylor, to send one of its technicians, ending a monopoly on the repairs.
