Hooray! Welcome to the show! We both have new attire today, as you may or may not have noticed. Luke has... +[12.00 --> 19.00] My wonderful dolphin Christmas sweater. That thing that he's wearing. The best dolphin Christmas sweater ever. +[19.00 --> 25.00] And I have what I think is probably gonna be our most popular t-shirt design ever. +[25.00 --> 32.00] Good reason. Well, I kind of do too. Both rocking the Keep On Diggin' shirts. +[32.00 --> 36.00] And then, truthfully, I actually have a horrible Christmas sweater too. +[36.00 --> 45.00] So it's getting to be that time of year. And here we go. Oh yeah! Shark Christmas. +[45.00 --> 47.00] So Shark Christmas and Dolphin Christmas. +[47.00 --> 53.00] So I think obviously the first thing we're gonna talk about on the show today is Sharks vs Dolphins. +[53.00 --> 55.00] Who is superior? +[55.00 --> 62.00] Well, I think sharks would be more superior in like a physical, aggressive kind of manner. +[62.00 --> 67.00] And then Dolphins are more superior in like the logic and apparently sex kind of manner. +[67.00 --> 69.00] Better at sex. +[69.00 --> 72.00] Well, aren't they the only other mammal that has sex for fun? +[72.00 --> 76.00] I think this is the... No, I think it's pigs actually. I think this is the fastest... +[76.00 --> 81.00] No, pigs have half an hour fun times. But I don't think they actually do it for like recreation. +[81.00 --> 88.00] Now we're gonna have to consult the Twitch chat because if there's anything I would expect the Twitch chat to be an expert on... +[88.00 --> 92.00] It would be... It would be animal sex. +[92.00 --> 95.00] Oh no. Oh man. +[95.00 --> 101.00] Someone just said dolphins can kill sharks. Maybe. But like, no one's like, oh no, there's a dolphin! +[101.00 --> 109.00] This is true. I was actually hoping you didn't know that. Dolphins can be a big problem if they get aggressive because they're super powerful. +[109.00 --> 113.00] Well that's why whenever you go like swimming with dolphins you only swim with the female dolphins. +[113.00 --> 114.00] Yes. +[114.00 --> 116.00] You don't swim with the male dolphins because they'll wreck you. +[116.00 --> 122.00] Okay, we've got a lot of people saying that they're right. Luke's right. Dolphins have sex for pleasure. +[122.00 --> 132.00] Apparently... Okay. I don't know if Twitch chat knows as much as they think they know. Dolphins kill more people a year than sharks and rape them. +[132.00 --> 139.00] Um, I'm thinking that's not actually what happens. It's possible they kill people. It's the second part that I'm a little uncertain about. +[139.00 --> 144.00] There's, there's, there's... Yeah, I'm not gonna get into it. But there's, there's some stuff for that second one. +[144.00 --> 147.00] Yeah, I'm sure there's, I'm sure there's an incident. +[147.00 --> 149.00] But, um... +[149.00 --> 156.00] Anyways, moving on. We have some pretty cool topics this week that don't have to do with sharks or dolphins, actually. Like, not at all. +[156.00 --> 158.00] Yay, dolphins. Christmas shark, Christmas dolphin. +[158.00 --> 164.00] Um, so some CSGO vac pros. Uh, CSGO pros got vac banned. There we go. I can talk. +[164.00 --> 165.00] Got vac banned! +[165.00 --> 166.00] I got vac pros! +[166.00 --> 167.00] Vac proed! +[167.00 --> 169.00] What? Um, anyways, we'll talk about that more later. +[169.00 --> 171.00] CSGO pro! +[171.00 --> 175.00] CSGO pro and it's like a little dude with a deagle, but it's actually just a GoPro. +[175.00 --> 181.00] And now that we've started this, it's only a matter of time until some, like, counter-terrorist agent starts... +[181.00 --> 183.00] Is that, is that me? Hey, hey, turn off. +[183.00 --> 184.00] Look at this new... +[184.00 --> 189.00] It's only a matter of time until some, like, counter-terrorism agent starts wearing a GoPro on all his ops. +[189.00 --> 191.00] CSGO pro. +[191.00 --> 194.00] Just becomes a YouTube sensation immediately. +[194.00 --> 204.00] Anyways, also, BitTorrent is introducing some possible, if you want them to be there, pay gates, which pay a lot more to the contributing artist than most other services. +[204.00 --> 211.00] Dell's 5K monitor is rumored to be coming in at a much lower price than we had originally anticipated. +[211.00 --> 217.00] I'm guessing they got somewhat surprised by Apple's pricing of the iMac Retina 5K. +[217.00 --> 226.00] And then Origin PC, it looks like, I'm assuming, I actually don't know if it's going to be a limited time offer, but it sounds like it. +[226.00 --> 235.00] For their fifth anniversary, they are going to be selling their cases, both the mid-tower and the full tower, stand alone. +[235.00 --> 247.00] So you don't actually have to buy an Origin PC in order to get that pretty fantastic Genesis and Millennium case that allows your motherboard to be oriented five different ways. +[247.00 --> 248.00] Four different ways. +[248.00 --> 251.00] There is no additional dimension that the case creates. +[251.00 --> 253.00] It goes, like, flat. +[253.00 --> 257.00] You don't have the side panel and it just comes flat. +[257.00 --> 258.00] You just take both side panels off. +[258.00 --> 261.00] So it's like, kind of a test bench, but not really. +[261.00 --> 265.00] And if you've got it going fast enough, you could probably get it to lift off. +[265.00 --> 266.00] Flying case. +[266.00 --> 270.00] Put jets on the back and put some little case wheels on the bottom and just hope it works. +[270.00 --> 272.00] People are complaining about the background noise. +[272.00 --> 278.00] The window's open because it's hot in here and we're wearing Christmas sweaters because tis the season to sweat buckets. +[278.00 --> 281.00] Because we're in BC, so there's no snow. +[281.00 --> 282.00] Oh yeah, there's audio. +[282.00 --> 283.00] I'm just singing for fun now. +[283.00 --> 284.00] Alright. +[284.00 --> 306.00] Our sponsors this week are Lynda.com, the fun place to learn. +[306.00 --> 308.00] Look how much fun she's having. +[308.00 --> 309.00] That's Lynda. +[309.00 --> 312.00] You can have that much fun online. +[312.00 --> 313.00] I have that much fun online. +[313.00 --> 316.00] Actually, I think there are sites where you can have a lot more fun than that online. +[316.00 --> 317.00] But this is educational fun. +[317.00 --> 319.00] I have an adequate amount of fun online. +[319.00 --> 321.00] Also, 5-4 Club. +[321.00 --> 335.00] They are going to be reminding you guys, or I guess I'm going to be reminding you guys on their behalf, about their sweet, fantastic, amazing giveaway that's like, actually the craziest clothing giveaway we've ever done. +[335.00 --> 336.00] Kind of awesome. +[336.00 --> 337.00] Well, yeah. +[337.00 --> 338.00] We haven't done many clothing giveaways. +[338.00 --> 339.00] We haven't done many clothing giveaways. +[339.00 --> 342.00] We have done a few, I guess, if we like throw shirts out. +[342.00 --> 343.00] Yeah, actually, okay. +[343.00 --> 344.00] I have done clothing giveaways. +[344.00 --> 345.00] I have actually thrown shirts at events. +[345.00 --> 346.00] Yeah, yeah. +[346.00 --> 347.00] Mainly the paintball one. +[347.00 --> 348.00] Yeah, and at NCIX events. +[348.00 --> 349.00] Oh. +[349.00 --> 350.00] I have thrown many shirts actually. +[350.00 --> 351.00] Okay. +[351.00 --> 353.00] So, that is potentially not the biggest clothing giveaway I've ever purchased. +[353.00 --> 354.00] No, I think it would be still. +[354.00 --> 355.00] I think it still would be. +[355.00 --> 359.00] If you argue that a swag shirt is only worth the actual cost of printing it. +[359.00 --> 366.00] And with the swag shirts, like if you caught four of them, it's not really as helpful. +[366.00 --> 367.00] Yeah, it's not a wardrobe. +[367.00 --> 368.00] No. +[368.00 --> 369.00] Unless your name is Luke. +[369.00 --> 370.00] Well, yes. +[370.00 --> 372.00] But then I do have different ones of all my swag shirts. +[372.00 --> 373.00] You would wear two of the same ones. +[373.00 --> 374.00] Yeah, it's not a wardrobe. +[374.00 --> 375.00] No. +[375.00 --> 376.00] Unless your name is Luke. +[376.00 --> 377.00] Well, yes. +[377.00 --> 379.00] But then I do have different ones of all my swag shirts. +[379.00 --> 380.00] You would wear two of the same one. +[380.00 --> 381.00] Probably. +[381.00 --> 382.00] I do have two of the same ones. +[382.00 --> 383.00] They would both be in the rotation. +[383.00 --> 384.00] They are. +[384.00 --> 385.00] You know the like teal blue twitch shirt? +[385.00 --> 386.00] Yes, I do. +[386.00 --> 387.00] I have two of those. +[387.00 --> 388.00] Okay. +[388.00 --> 389.00] I like that shirt. +[389.00 --> 390.00] That doesn't surprise me. +[390.00 --> 391.00] It's good. +[391.00 --> 392.00] I'm glad you have two because you'd probably just wear it twice as often if you didn't +[392.00 --> 393.00] have two and then you'd smell. +[393.00 --> 394.00] Yeah. +[394.00 --> 395.00] All right. +[395.00 --> 396.00] Let's get into our first topic. +[396.00 --> 397.00] I don't know if you're going to be a little bit of a swag shirt. +[397.00 --> 398.00] I don't know if you're going to be a little bit of a swag shirt. +[398.00 --> 399.00] Yeah, I don't know if you're going to be a little bit of a swag shirt. +[399.00 --> 400.00] I don't know if you're a little bit of a swag shirt. +[400.00 --> 401.00] That doesn't surprise me. +[401.00 --> 402.00] It's good. +[402.00 --> 404.00] I'm glad you have two because you'd probably just wear it twice as often if you didn't +[404.00 --> 406.00] have two and then you'd smell. +[406.00 --> 407.00] Yeah. +[407.00 --> 408.00] All right. +[408.00 --> 409.00] Let's get into our first topic of the day. +[409.00 --> 413.00] So this was posted by Tank Slayer on the forum and there's actually a lot of different +[413.00 --> 418.00] sources for this one including TalkAndroid.com but that's the one we're going to fire up +[418.00 --> 419.00] here. +[419.00 --> 420.00] Excuse me. +[420.00 --> 421.00] It's actually xTankSlayerX. +[421.00 --> 422.00] Yeah, I don't care. +[422.00 --> 423.00] So. +[423.00 --> 428.00] Oneplus not solving issues with defective devices ignoring RMA resources. +[428.00 --> 435.00] Now the article has been updated with Oneplus' statement that they are working on growing +[435.00 --> 442.00] their team and expanding their capacity for customer service related stuff but that doesn't +[442.00 --> 448.00] change that some of these testimonials are pretty condemning. +[448.00 --> 451.00] You know what they could do to completely solve this problem? +[451.00 --> 455.00] They should just have their RMA system like a lottery. +[455.00 --> 462.00] So like you get invites to be able to RMA your phone. +[462.00 --> 464.00] So like you sign up on their website. +[464.00 --> 465.00] Oh wow. +[465.00 --> 466.00] You have to already. +[466.00 --> 467.00] Phone warranty lottery. +[467.00 --> 468.00] Yeah. +[468.00 --> 472.00] So your serial number just gets assigned an arbitrary warranty period. +[472.00 --> 477.00] So some people get like a 10 year warranty on their phone and others get like 48 hours. +[477.00 --> 479.00] And it just averages out to you. +[479.00 --> 482.00] Could you advertise a one year warranty on your phone? +[482.00 --> 483.00] If it's an average warranty. +[483.00 --> 485.00] If it was an average warranty. +[485.00 --> 489.00] Someone gets like a 100 year warranty and everyone else gets a couple hours and they just hope +[489.00 --> 491.00] that that dude just throws the phone away after a while. +[491.00 --> 492.00] Yeah. +[492.00 --> 496.00] So it's no secret that we're not huge fans of the way Oneplus has conducted themselves since +[496.00 --> 499.00] their inception not very long ago. +[499.00 --> 502.00] It's amazing how many people send me Oneplus one invites. +[502.00 --> 503.00] Do you want a Oneplus one? +[503.00 --> 504.00] Invites. +[504.00 --> 508.00] I have some people just email them to me without even asking if I want them and I'm just like +[508.00 --> 510.00] do you have any idea how many of these I've gotten? +[510.00 --> 513.00] If I wanted a Oneplus one I'd have bought one by now. +[513.00 --> 516.00] It's really not that hard to get an invite if you really want one. +[516.00 --> 524.00] Especially now where they're not only accepting invite customers but they're even opening it +[524.00 --> 528.00] up for pre-orders from time to time whenever they do production runs at the Oppo factory. +[528.00 --> 532.00] So anyway what happened was I used her on Reddit and stated that he was being helped to fix +[532.00 --> 533.00] his audio issues. +[533.00 --> 537.00] And when a flash of his phone did not help customer service apparently ignored his RMA +[537.00 --> 541.00] request and after 11 days he posted his concerns on Reddit. +[541.00 --> 545.00] So the statement from Oneplus is we prioritize the experience of our users above all else. +[545.00 --> 548.00] Our team is growing rapidly to et cetera et cetera et cetera et cetera. +[548.00 --> 554.00] If you guys want to discuss this more actually the thread on Linus Tech Tips Forum is one of +[554.00 --> 560.00] the more I don't know just generally it's a really really good it's a really good thread. +[560.00 --> 565.00] People being very respectful having balanced discussion bringing lots of fat look at look +[565.00 --> 567.00] at look at ghost he's all on top of his stuff. +[567.00 --> 568.00] It's a bot. +[568.00 --> 569.00] It's awesome. +[569.00 --> 570.00] It's a bot? +[570.00 --> 571.00] Yeah look bot. +[571.00 --> 572.00] How does that work? +[572.00 --> 576.00] So when you post something specifically when your account posts something and then it has +[576.00 --> 580.00] HTTP colon slash slash in it that bot will just nuke the chat. +[580.00 --> 581.00] How do I not know about these things? +[581.00 --> 583.00] Because ghost is awesome. +[583.00 --> 587.00] Because like I've been spamming it and you guys didn't tell me to stop spamming it. +[587.00 --> 588.00] Well it's fairly new. +[588.00 --> 589.00] Ah okay. +[589.00 --> 590.00] Yeah. +[590.00 --> 594.00] Ghost got really tired of me not instigating like an actual chat bot. +[594.00 --> 597.00] So he's like I'm gonna just make my own. +[597.00 --> 598.00] So he did. +[598.00 --> 599.00] Good job ghost. +[599.00 --> 600.00] You are the man. +[600.00 --> 605.00] And like the best part is that I'm not gonna go over like all the different things that it does. +[605.00 --> 612.00] But certain things that it does are drastically better than all the free bots out there and are like reasons why I've been holding off because I'm like oh they just suck. +[612.00 --> 613.00] Right. +[613.00 --> 615.00] So yeah he solved those too. +[615.00 --> 616.00] Cool. +[616.00 --> 617.00] It's kinda great. +[617.00 --> 618.00] Alright let's move into our next topic. +[618.00 --> 619.00] Well this is cool. +[619.00 --> 624.00] This means there's actually a point in me posting things like the source links for the stuff that we're about to talk about. +[624.00 --> 625.00] Oh and it didn't work. +[625.00 --> 626.00] It doesn't have an HTTP colon slash slash. +[626.00 --> 627.00] It does. +[627.00 --> 628.00] It does. +[628.00 --> 629.00] Balls. +[629.00 --> 630.00] Well alright. +[630.00 --> 631.00] It didn't work that time. +[631.00 --> 633.00] Ghost you are hereby. +[633.00 --> 635.00] No it did something else. +[635.00 --> 638.00] You are hereby deducted one internet cookie. +[638.00 --> 641.00] But it's okay because you earned six internet cookies for the last thing you did. +[641.00 --> 642.00] I might have missed something. +[642.00 --> 645.00] Alright so this is Kisa's KISS connectivity. +[645.00 --> 647.00] Oh it only does it every 90 seconds. +[647.00 --> 649.00] This was posted by Dismo on the forum. +[649.00 --> 652.00] I'm gonna go ahead and pop this up on my screen here anyway. +[652.00 --> 653.00] It has a cool down. +[653.00 --> 654.00] I'm sorry? +[654.00 --> 656.00] Why does it have a cool down? +[656.00 --> 658.00] You can only do it once every 90 seconds. +[658.00 --> 659.00] Oh alright then. +[659.00 --> 662.00] Oh it's probably so if you spam the crap out of it it doesn't. +[662.00 --> 663.00] It's probably to keep me from getting banned. +[663.00 --> 664.00] There we go. +[664.00 --> 665.00] From banning myself. +[665.00 --> 666.00] Alright. +[666.00 --> 667.00] So this. +[667.00 --> 671.00] I mean I think the headline is a little bit sensationalist. +[671.00 --> 673.00] Mr. Eric McBride over at Android Authority. +[673.00 --> 678.00] I don't think that KISS connectivity will make cords obsolete. +[678.00 --> 686.00] But I do agree that I mean if kissing made cords obsolete what would we need the internet +[686.00 --> 687.00] for? +[687.00 --> 688.00] You could just kiss girls in real life. +[688.00 --> 689.00] Well I guess. +[689.00 --> 690.00] Or boys. +[690.00 --> 691.00] Yeah. +[691.00 --> 692.00] Yeah whichever. +[692.00 --> 698.00] Anyway the point is that this is we don't really have a ton of confirmation about exactly +[698.00 --> 700.00] how the heck it works. +[700.00 --> 702.00] But what they have said is that. +[702.00 --> 704.00] That still wouldn't solve long distance relationships. +[704.00 --> 705.00] I'm sorry? +[705.00 --> 706.00] Long distance? +[706.00 --> 707.00] Okay. +[707.00 --> 712.00] The connectors used in Kisa's wireless KISS connectivity are currently able to transfer up to six gigs of data per second. +[712.00 --> 719.00] To put this in perspective the latest Wi-Fi standard can handle up to 1.35 gigs a second. +[719.00 --> 721.00] And that's very theoretical. +[721.00 --> 724.00] I've never seen it go anywhere near that fast. +[724.00 --> 727.00] And that's using a bridge. +[727.00 --> 731.00] Or like a media bridge and a high speed router. +[731.00 --> 736.00] As opposed to a router and then the kinds of weak sauce clients that typically people are using. +[736.00 --> 741.00] So this they showed off transferring a 1080p movie file. +[741.00 --> 744.00] Although we don't actually have confirmation of the exact size of the file. +[744.00 --> 748.00] But I would guess it's in the given that it did it in five seconds. +[748.00 --> 751.00] I would guess that it was in the six gigs range. +[751.00 --> 753.00] But it could be anywhere from two and a half to twelve gigs. +[753.00 --> 760.00] And that would translate to 512 megabytes per second to 2457 megabytes per second. +[760.00 --> 762.00] Which is bananas. +[762.00 --> 763.00] Minstrous. +[763.00 --> 764.00] Did it hold on a second? +[764.00 --> 765.00] No, I did the math wrong there. +[765.00 --> 768.00] It should have been ten seconds to be whatever the speed I said was. +[768.00 --> 769.00] Okay, anyway. +[769.00 --> 772.00] Somewhere between 512 megabytes to 2457. +[772.00 --> 775.00] And it can only do it a couple of millimeters away right now. +[775.00 --> 780.00] So we're not talking about like, you know, I'm just like this. +[780.00 --> 781.00] And I'm like, boop-dee-boop-dee-boop. +[781.00 --> 786.00] And it goes over to his phone, you know, as fast as a USB 3 wired connection. +[786.00 --> 791.00] We're talking about more like an NFC touch style and like, make sure you get it aligned just right. +[791.00 --> 792.00] Yeah. +[792.00 --> 793.00] Kind of arrangement. +[793.00 --> 797.00] The initial demo of the technology was by their CEO, Eric Almgren. +[797.00 --> 800.00] And they claim that, um... +[800.00 --> 803.00] No, I already said that. +[803.00 --> 804.00] So... +[804.00 --> 805.00] Whoa. +[805.00 --> 806.00] Oh yeah, it was touch screen. +[806.00 --> 814.00] So I don't know what else there's to really say about this other than the one big problem is that it doesn't use any kind of existing technology. +[814.00 --> 819.00] Like one of the ways that we've seen NFC file transfers before in the past is things like... +[819.00 --> 820.00] And I'm holding up an iPhone. +[820.00 --> 821.00] Haha, NFC derp. +[821.00 --> 823.00] I can pay for things. +[823.00 --> 824.00] Yeah, thank you. +[824.00 --> 833.00] Um, so one of the ways we've seen NFC file transfers implemented in the past is with an NFC handshake and then a direct WiFi connection, for example. +[833.00 --> 838.00] Whereas KISS connectivity is not going to rely on any kind of existing connection. +[838.00 --> 841.00] It will need a dedicated chip just for this. +[841.00 --> 845.00] Although it looks like they're already in the process of working with a couple of large OEMs. +[845.00 --> 851.00] Dell is probably going to be one of them given that one of their devices was used for the demo. +[851.00 --> 854.00] And then Samsung and Intel are also investors. +[854.00 --> 857.00] So that's already some pretty heavyweight players. +[857.00 --> 863.00] Even if just Samsung rolls it out, that is a huge chunk of the smartphone market that could be enabled with this technology. +[863.00 --> 866.00] I'd like to see it in palm rests of laptops. +[866.00 --> 867.00] Yes. +[867.00 --> 869.00] Did you read my comment and steal it? +[869.00 --> 871.00] I had a... +[871.00 --> 876.00] That was going to be my whole thing that I was going to actually be able to talk about. +[876.00 --> 877.00] I put an additional bullet... +[877.00 --> 880.00] See, I'm not going to put bullet points in the dock anymore. +[880.00 --> 885.00] I put it in and it goes, Linus's thought integrated into laptops? +[885.00 --> 886.00] Question mark. +[886.00 --> 888.00] He goes, you know what would be great? +[888.00 --> 889.00] Integrated into laptops. +[889.00 --> 890.00] You know what? +[890.00 --> 891.00] Congratulations for your good idea. +[891.00 --> 892.00] Thank you. +[892.00 --> 893.00] You did good. +[893.00 --> 894.00] You were insightful. +[894.00 --> 897.00] I was actually thinking about that I want to talk about this topic next. +[897.00 --> 898.00] Yes, sure we can do that. +[898.00 --> 901.00] I was actually thinking we might get more into that on Afterparty. +[901.00 --> 903.00] Well, okay, you know what? +[903.00 --> 904.00] We can get more into it on Afterparty. +[904.00 --> 905.00] Sure. +[905.00 --> 907.00] Let's do it during the show, but maybe not quite next. +[907.00 --> 908.00] Sure. +[908.00 --> 911.00] So, yeah, integrated into laptops. +[911.00 --> 926.00] Like right now, one of the big problems with phones that faster wireless connectivity could fix is that you're either running around for a cable and using the old, stupid, traditional folder-based file transfer technique, or you're using something that's inherently slow. +[926.00 --> 927.00] Like you're backing up to Dropbox. +[927.00 --> 929.00] Herb derp, I'm loading up an iPhone again. +[929.00 --> 941.00] Well, excuse me, I mean AirDrop to all of my other Apple devices that I don't have, to all my friends who use Apple who actually don't, to my iPhone 4 that actually doesn't support AirDrop. +[941.00 --> 945.00] Every time I'm like, oh yeah, I'll just use AirDrop for this. +[945.00 --> 946.00] Nope. +[946.00 --> 947.00] Nope. +[947.00 --> 948.00] Not at all. +[948.00 --> 949.00] Nope. +[949.00 --> 950.00] Nope. +[950.00 --> 951.00] So, yeah. +[951.00 --> 952.00] I guess that's pretty much it. +[952.00 --> 954.00] Let's talk Snapcash. +[954.00 --> 955.00] This is interesting. +[955.00 --> 958.00] I did not see this one coming. +[958.00 --> 960.00] So, everyone knows what Snapchat is. +[960.00 --> 963.00] You send picture messages to people, in theory they're deleted. +[963.00 --> 965.00] Not so much. +[965.00 --> 966.00] I had finger quotes. +[966.00 --> 967.00] Yeah. +[967.00 --> 968.00] I had finger quotes. +[968.00 --> 969.00] I said in theory. +[969.00 --> 970.00] I think that pretty much covers my head. +[970.00 --> 973.00] So, in theory plus finger quotes means like totally not at all. +[973.00 --> 975.00] We need a shirt that says that. +[975.00 --> 976.00] Yeah. +[976.00 --> 981.00] Totally not at all in quotes. +[981.00 --> 985.00] So, Snapcash uses Square Cash. +[985.00 --> 990.00] So, if you guys have heard of Square, I actually signed up for Square back when they first started up. +[990.00 --> 1001.00] Basically, it was just a little dongle that plugged into your phone so that you could, so anyone could accept credit card transactions with a very reasonable interchange fee or additional charge on top of it. +[1001.00 --> 1007.00] Actually, I've never seen that in Canada, but multiple places when I was going around Europe was using Square. +[1007.00 --> 1008.00] It's pretty interesting. +[1008.00 --> 1013.00] So, Square Cash is just more like more debit card-y. +[1013.00 --> 1016.00] Okay, so Square, okay, well hold on, hold on, hold on. +[1016.00 --> 1022.00] Square Cash on its own is you just key in your debit card and then it's more for like peer-to-peer transfers. +[1022.00 --> 1036.00] So, you wouldn't expect to walk into a restaurant and have them accept Square Cash and you just kind of go, you know, bippity-boopity in my app and you send it to that person who then gets a notification that they have been sent money and they can accept it. +[1036.00 --> 1042.00] So, that's more for like, you know, you're meeting with someone, you know, behind the alley to trade computer parts. +[1042.00 --> 1043.00] In your games. +[1043.00 --> 1050.00] I mean, I wouldn't use an electronic, if I was buying drugs I wouldn't use anything electronic. +[1050.00 --> 1052.00] But, but if you're buying computer hardware it's all good. +[1052.00 --> 1053.00] Can you not? +[1053.00 --> 1054.00] It's Silk Road or weird. +[1054.00 --> 1055.00] Whatever you're about to say, can you not? +[1055.00 --> 1056.00] It's Silk Road. +[1056.00 --> 1057.00] What? +[1057.00 --> 1058.00] Silk Road. +[1058.00 --> 1060.00] Okay, okay, I wouldn't use Square. +[1060.00 --> 1061.00] I wouldn't use my debit card. +[1061.00 --> 1062.00] Can we say that much? +[1062.00 --> 1063.00] Sure. +[1063.00 --> 1067.00] Okay, so Square stores your debit card information securely, they say. +[1067.00 --> 1071.00] I don't, I haven't verified that, but they store it securely and then you can just use it. +[1071.00 --> 1075.00] So, I've heard of people using it for things like tip splitting when they're out for dinner. +[1075.00 --> 1078.00] It's like, hey, I don't have any cash. +[1078.00 --> 1081.00] Someone's got a credit card, someone else squares them some money. +[1081.00 --> 1082.00] Awesome. +[1082.00 --> 1083.00] So. +[1083.00 --> 1086.00] Okay, so all the credit card stuff is stored by Square or Snapchat? +[1086.00 --> 1087.00] Not credit card yet. +[1087.00 --> 1088.00] Debit. +[1088.00 --> 1090.00] Okay, all that information is stored by Square or Snapchat? +[1090.00 --> 1098.00] If you use Square Cash, Square, and I believe with Snapchat, it is going to be Snapchat, but don't quote me on that one either. +[1098.00 --> 1104.00] There's not a ton of information about this yet, and honestly, this was posted by King Daddy Daniel on the forum, by the way. +[1104.00 --> 1107.00] And I'll post the original article from TechCrunch right here. +[1107.00 --> 1114.00] Honestly, the most information is in their hilarious video that has a bunch of dancers running around. +[1114.00 --> 1117.00] You know what, it's probably worth us just firing up on the show here. +[1117.00 --> 1118.00] Oh, jeez. +[1118.00 --> 1119.00] Because it's pretty funny. +[1119.00 --> 1120.00] What? +[1120.00 --> 1122.00] It's very, very over the top. +[1122.00 --> 1124.00] Let's just go ahead and screen share here. +[1124.00 --> 1125.00] Okay. +[1125.00 --> 1126.00] Oh, that's weird. +[1126.00 --> 1135.00] Well, I guess we don't get any audio, but whatever. +[1135.00 --> 1138.00] He says, buy this, can you send me some cash? +[1138.00 --> 1147.00] So the way it works is instead of relying on a dedicated financial app, you just use Snapchat, you type in a dollar amount, and slow motion for dramatic, there you go. +[1147.00 --> 1154.00] The button turns green, and you just send cash. Boom. Just like that. If the other person doesn't have it set up, then it'll prompt them to set it up. +[1154.00 --> 1155.00] Oh my god. +[1155.00 --> 1167.00] And, yeah. So this is the video, which is hilarious. It involves a lot more dancing. It goes on for way too long. It's over two minutes long. +[1167.00 --> 1171.00] So this is going to be like the easiest way to steal money from friends. +[1171.00 --> 1172.00] Wow. +[1172.00 --> 1174.00] I see this end up being terrible. +[1174.00 --> 1177.00] You always look at things from like this, like dark, dark- +[1177.00 --> 1178.00] But you have to! +[1178.00 --> 1180.00] What evil people will do with it, whereas I'm like- +[1180.00 --> 1181.00] You have to! +[1181.00 --> 1186.00] Oh, this is such a cool way to be like, you know, bro, here's ten bucks for the lunch you just got for me. +[1186.00 --> 1194.00] Yeah, bro at a frat party, everyone passes out, bro walks around because he wasn't drinking and goes to everyone's phone and just Snapchats himself hundreds of dollars. +[1194.00 --> 1203.00] Okay, so, okay, let's do benefits and drawbacks analysis. Okay, so easy to steal. +[1203.00 --> 1204.00] Yeah, extremely. +[1204.00 --> 1212.00] I would say benefit is if you do send someone out to buy something for you, you no longer need to give Buddy your PIN or your credit card. +[1212.00 --> 1213.00] PayPal. +[1213.00 --> 1214.00] Which is something that- +[1214.00 --> 1217.00] Oh, come on. You're gonna use PayPal for that? +[1217.00 --> 1219.00] Why not? +[1219.00 --> 1221.00] Why would they have PayPal? +[1221.00 --> 1223.00] Everyone has PayPal. +[1223.00 --> 1224.00] Do they? +[1224.00 --> 1227.00] I don't know anyone who doesn't have PayPal. My mom has it, my grandpa has it. +[1227.00 --> 1229.00] I don't think I have a personal PayPal account. +[1229.00 --> 1230.00] Really? +[1230.00 --> 1231.00] Yeah. +[1231.00 --> 1232.00] You're weird. +[1232.00 --> 1235.00] I have a company PayPal account, my wife has a PayPal account, I do not have a PayPal account. +[1235.00 --> 1236.00] What would I need it for? +[1236.00 --> 1237.00] I don't know. +[1237.00 --> 1240.00] I'm not gonna buy anything with PayPal, I get rewards on my credit card. +[1240.00 --> 1244.00] And then merchants get to pay for it. +[1244.00 --> 1249.00] That's right, Best Buy CEO man who hates interchange fees that earn rewards from me. +[1249.00 --> 1255.00] Wouldn't withdrawing money from your card into PayPal still count as, so you'd still get rewards from your credit card? +[1255.00 --> 1257.00] Mmm, can't remember. +[1257.00 --> 1258.00] Can't remember, but that's a good point. +[1258.00 --> 1260.00] I'm not sure actually, I have no idea. +[1260.00 --> 1261.00] Anyway. +[1261.00 --> 1262.00] Okay, the point is if this is much faster- +[1262.00 --> 1264.00] It is much faster. +[1264.00 --> 1265.00] There. +[1265.00 --> 1274.00] Okay, so, and, and, and, you say PayPal, but I know that you've given me your debit card and told me your pin to go buy something for you. +[1274.00 --> 1275.00] It's still easier than this. +[1275.00 --> 1279.00] So, no, no, no, no, no, this looks legitimately pretty easy. +[1279.00 --> 1283.00] Assume, okay, assume now that you're not 20-something and you're 18-something. +[1283.00 --> 1284.00] No, but the reason why- +[1284.00 --> 1285.00] And you actually have Snapchat. +[1285.00 --> 1291.00] But the reason why this is not as easy as just giving you a debit card, I don't do that with everybody. +[1291.00 --> 1293.00] Um, gosh. +[1293.00 --> 1298.00] It's because, uh, you don't know what the price is gonna be. +[1298.00 --> 1305.00] So what, like, the guy, like, gets to the store, rings through the whole transaction, and then calls you and is like, hey, it's this much, and then it's not that? +[1305.00 --> 1309.00] No, but they could come back and be like, yo dawg, it was 1862, and you'd be boop-boop-boop-boop-boop. +[1309.00 --> 1310.00] So you owe me that much? +[1310.00 --> 1311.00] Yeah. +[1311.00 --> 1312.00] I think it, I think it's awesome. +[1312.00 --> 1315.00] I think the potential to exploit it is definitely there. +[1315.00 --> 1326.00] I think that kids today need to learn to put pins on their phones, um, that their friends don't know, because the phone is more and more and more tied into so many things you can do. +[1326.00 --> 1327.00] Everything. +[1327.00 --> 1332.00] Even Apple's way of validating Apple Pay with Touch ID, I believe you can also enter a pin. +[1332.00 --> 1340.00] So if someone knows the pin of your phone, all of a sudden they can buy things, which is a whole other ball of wax compared to they can, like, text your friends and be like, +[1340.00 --> 1342.00] whoa, I'm ugly. +[1342.00 --> 1344.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1344.00 --> 1345.00] Yeah, phone pranking is- +[1345.00 --> 1348.00] Post on Facebook, I hacked your Facebook! +[1348.00 --> 1349.00] Yeah. +[1349.00 --> 1350.00] No. +[1350.00 --> 1351.00] Not so much. +[1351.00 --> 1354.00] Alright, so, court rules. +[1354.00 --> 1356.00] This is posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[1356.00 --> 1357.00] Court rules! +[1357.00 --> 1358.00] Yeah, court rules. +[1358.00 --> 1359.00] Yeah. +[1359.00 --> 1360.00] If I fought that, then I would be alone. +[1360.00 --> 1361.00] Exactly. +[1361.00 --> 1362.00] Me and lawyers. +[1362.00 --> 1370.00] So this was from, this is from Engadget.com, and of course, I don't have an HTTP on that one. +[1370.00 --> 1371.00] Boom! +[1371.00 --> 1372.00] Engadget.com. +[1372.00 --> 1373.00] There you go. +[1373.00 --> 1391.00] Um, originally posted by TechDreamer, and, uh, US court had, in San Francisco has ruled that due to the First Amendment, so this is freedom of speech predominantly, Google can arrange and rearrange search results any way it wants. +[1391.00 --> 1407.00] So this is, um, this is from a complaint from a, they figured they were a competitor of one of Google's services that Google was intentionally downranking them in Google search results in order to drive more exposure to their own services. +[1407.00 --> 1417.00] And basically, this ruling, it doesn't, it doesn't rule out Google being attacked for this in other regions or by other, by other companies. +[1417.00 --> 1418.00] Yeah. +[1418.00 --> 1426.00] But what it does do is it sets a precedent that Google can now point to and say, well, hey, it was already ruled that we're allowed to arrange our search results however we want, so... +[1427.00 --> 1428.00] Yeah. +[1429.00 --> 1431.00] That's how, like, referencing different court trials and works. +[1431.00 --> 1432.00] Enjoy that. +[1432.00 --> 1434.00] It'd be like, Google versus whoever. +[1434.00 --> 1437.00] Um, I just, honestly, I... +[1437.00 --> 1438.00] They were already doing it anyway. +[1438.00 --> 1439.00] Yeah. +[1439.00 --> 1442.00] Even, whether it was legal or not, they were already doing it, and they were gonna do it forever. +[1442.00 --> 1447.00] I mean, it is, it is no great secret that when Google, like, it's not a good idea. +[1447.00 --> 1454.00] That when Google launches some new service that everyone hates, like Google Plus, that all of a sudden it's everywhere. +[1454.00 --> 1455.00] Yeah. +[1455.00 --> 1456.00] Duh. +[1456.00 --> 1457.00] I don't know. +[1457.00 --> 1459.00] I don't think it's that big of a deal. +[1459.00 --> 1464.00] Um, I think it sounds a little bit scary, but I don't think it's actually going to be. +[1464.00 --> 1468.00] They can't abuse it any worse than they already are, really. +[1468.00 --> 1469.00] Yeah. +[1469.00 --> 1471.00] Because if they do, people will stop Googling things. +[1471.00 --> 1475.00] When Bing, the second, there's no loyalty to a search engine. +[1475.00 --> 1477.00] In particular, the search engine. +[1477.00 --> 1481.00] Things like their, their applications, like their calendar or their email. +[1481.00 --> 1491.00] There's, there's some loyalty there because they've managed to drive us as a business to give them a monthly payment in order to use these services because of how well integrated they are. +[1491.00 --> 1498.00] But for, especially something like using a search engine, which is what this complaint is about, there is no loyalty. +[1498.00 --> 1503.00] If Bing starts returning better search results for me, I will switch tomorrow. +[1503.00 --> 1504.00] I'd love to use Bing. +[1504.00 --> 1505.00] It's just useless. +[1505.00 --> 1512.00] I switched from AltaVista to Google that quickly because AltaVista stopped working and Google started doing better. +[1512.00 --> 1514.00] Same thing with dog pile. +[1514.00 --> 1521.00] Like, those of you who are, who've been using the internet long enough to remember the pre-Google days, there are other search engines. +[1521.00 --> 1523.00] It's just that they suck. +[1523.00 --> 1530.00] So if Google degrades the quality of their results by prioritizing their own crap aggressively enough, we'll just stop using it. +[1530.00 --> 1532.00] And they'll lose their primary source of income. +[1532.00 --> 1533.00] So it's not going to happen. +[1533.00 --> 1536.00] I know ask.com is still a thing, but like, not really. +[1536.00 --> 1538.00] And I remember Ask Jeeves being huge. +[1538.00 --> 1540.00] Yeah, Ask Jeeves was huge. +[1540.00 --> 1541.00] Yeah. +[1541.00 --> 1546.00] I think I went, uh, AltaVista, Ask Jeeves, Google, actually, I think was, was what I used. +[1546.00 --> 1548.00] AltaVista used to be awesome. +[1548.00 --> 1550.00] You could find everything there. +[1550.00 --> 1552.00] And then it just went to complete garbage. +[1552.00 --> 1555.00] You know, it is, it is amazing how bad Bing is. +[1555.00 --> 1556.00] I know. +[1556.00 --> 1560.00] Every time I install a new Windows OS, I think I've told this story before. +[1560.00 --> 1567.00] Every time I install a new Windows OS, I have to use IE until I'm not lazy and I install some other browser. +[1567.00 --> 1573.00] So I'll use IE and the default search engine will be Bing because I'm not going to go through all those other steps to manually change my search engine. +[1573.00 --> 1576.00] And then it's kind of a pain to add it, so I'm lazy. +[1576.00 --> 1579.00] Um, and I will use Bing until it infuriates me. +[1579.00 --> 1582.00] And it's usually gone within three searches. +[1582.00 --> 1584.00] Because it doesn't find anything useful. +[1584.00 --> 1585.00] It doesn't find it, yeah. +[1585.00 --> 1586.00] I don't know. +[1586.00 --> 1592.00] And like, you search the exact name of a product and it will find you everything else it possibly can. +[1592.00 --> 1593.00] Yeah. +[1593.00 --> 1596.00] And then you put that name in Google and the first result is the product page from that company. +[1596.00 --> 1597.00] From the manufacturer. +[1597.00 --> 1598.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1598.00 --> 1599.00] It's like, what am I looking for? +[1599.00 --> 1605.00] Like some obscure reference to like, it's coming out in six months from some message board from six months ago. +[1605.00 --> 1607.00] No, I want to look at it. +[1607.00 --> 1608.00] Um, New York. +[1608.00 --> 1609.00] This is the coolest thing ever. +[1609.00 --> 1610.00] What? +[1610.00 --> 1611.00] Oh, yes. +[1611.00 --> 1612.00] This is awesome. +[1612.00 --> 1613.00] New York City to replace public. +[1613.00 --> 1616.00] This was posted by the Uncon, whatever, something. +[1616.00 --> 1619.00] Um, so the original articles are from absolutely everywhere. +[1619.00 --> 1622.00] Uh, so the Verge has got an article about this. +[1622.00 --> 1623.00] The Unconnected. +[1623.00 --> 1626.00] Uh, TechCrunch, Ars Technica, Business Insider. +[1626.00 --> 1631.00] I'll post the Verge one here because I'm apparently, because that's the one I copied. +[1631.00 --> 1634.00] Although I'm still mad at them about that really stupid piece they did on Gamergate. +[1634.00 --> 1635.00] Yeah. +[1635.00 --> 1636.00] Um. +[1636.00 --> 1637.00] It was really stupid, but like, basically. +[1637.00 --> 1639.00] It was really stupid. +[1639.00 --> 1641.00] But like, basically everyone else has released stuff like that too. +[1641.00 --> 1643.00] That has talked about it. +[1643.00 --> 1644.00] That's true. +[1644.00 --> 1646.00] Everyone was stupid. +[1646.00 --> 1647.00] Yes. +[1647.00 --> 1650.00] But the Verges was like, late to the party and stupid. +[1650.00 --> 1651.00] That's true. +[1651.00 --> 1657.00] So they didn't have the advantage of not having everyone else's stupidity to look at and not follow them off the cliff like a lemming. +[1657.00 --> 1658.00] So, there you go. +[1658.00 --> 1659.00] Yep. +[1659.00 --> 1664.00] This is going to be called LinkNYC and they will be replacing 10,000 payphones. +[1664.00 --> 1666.00] I mean, who uses payphones? +[1666.00 --> 1674.00] With pylons, towers, posts, capable of providing free public wifi at gigabit speeds 24-7. +[1674.00 --> 1677.00] There's also a charging station for your mobile devices. +[1677.00 --> 1679.00] You can call any number domestically in the US. +[1679.00 --> 1685.00] And it features a tablet-like interface that can service, that can provide services like directions. +[1685.00 --> 1686.00] That's awesome. +[1686.00 --> 1688.00] Not paid for with taxpayer money. +[1688.00 --> 1693.00] Instead, it is advertiser driven and the residential version will not have ads. +[1693.00 --> 1698.00] The project is estimated to bring $500 million of revenue into New York City in its first 12 years. +[1698.00 --> 1700.00] And what a boon for the residents. +[1700.00 --> 1701.00] Brilliant. +[1701.00 --> 1704.00] New York City planners, you guys are awesome. +[1704.00 --> 1705.00] Your kids are awesome. +[1705.00 --> 1707.00] Your dogs are awesome. +[1707.00 --> 1709.00] And especially your ideas are awesome. +[1709.00 --> 1710.00] Mainly your dogs are awesome. +[1710.00 --> 1711.00] They wear rocket packs. +[1711.00 --> 1713.00] And they're super stoked when you come home. +[1713.00 --> 1715.00] That's how forward thinking they are. +[1715.00 --> 1716.00] Yeah. +[1716.00 --> 1722.00] Anyways, when you first said ads, I was working before the show so I didn't have a lot of time to... +[1722.00 --> 1724.00] Well, they're like big billboards on the pylons. +[1724.00 --> 1725.00] Yeah, like that's cool. +[1725.00 --> 1726.00] Like a bus stop. +[1726.00 --> 1727.00] I was like, oh, you're gonna inject ads in my browser all the time? +[1727.00 --> 1728.00] It's gonna suck. +[1728.00 --> 1730.00] Especially on mobile when you can't see anything already. +[1730.00 --> 1731.00] Right. +[1731.00 --> 1732.00] If it's on the side of the thing. +[1732.00 --> 1733.00] Like, it's New York City. +[1733.00 --> 1734.00] Stuff everywhere anyway. +[1734.00 --> 1735.00] Yeah. +[1735.00 --> 1737.00] If there was some tall written stuff. +[1738.00 --> 1739.00] I don't know if it's gonna really change much. +[1739.00 --> 1743.00] It's not confirmed whether seamless hopping from pylon to pylon will be supported. +[1743.00 --> 1747.00] So, you may have to treat it kind of like a phone booth. +[1747.00 --> 1752.00] You know, where you actually kind of have to stand next to it to make a call and then kind of boogie on to the next place. +[1752.00 --> 1753.00] I doubt it. +[1753.00 --> 1754.00] But... +[1754.00 --> 1762.00] And one concern that I have is if you're set up, and depending on the way the pylon works, like, even if you don't seamlessly roam, if you do... +[1762.00 --> 1767.00] If you do connection hop at all, every mobile OS... +[1767.00 --> 1768.00] Actually, I haven't tried Blackberry. +[1768.00 --> 1769.00] You have. +[1769.00 --> 1770.00] So maybe you can correct me on this. +[1770.00 --> 1771.00] It's been a long time. +[1771.00 --> 1772.00] Um, every... +[1772.00 --> 1779.00] iOS and Android, both of them handle degraded Wi-Fi connections extremely poorly. +[1779.00 --> 1783.00] And they don't switch over to mobile data nearly gracefully enough. +[1783.00 --> 1786.00] Windows Phone does it incredibly well. +[1786.00 --> 1787.00] It goes, oh, crap. +[1787.00 --> 1788.00] This is bad. +[1788.00 --> 1793.00] And switches over to your mobile data connection so you hardly even notice when you're browsing. +[1793.00 --> 1797.00] But that's a big issue when you're at the fringes of a Wi-Fi coverage zone. +[1797.00 --> 1810.00] So, if you were walking down the street doing something on your phone, then if you reach edges of these pylons all the time and you're automatically jumping on them, it could be very, very disruptive. +[1810.00 --> 1813.00] So, that's just my one thought on it. +[1813.00 --> 1814.00] Yeah. +[1814.00 --> 1817.00] Other than that, it's amazing in every way. +[1817.00 --> 1819.00] Have you used ShotGo Wi-Fi? +[1819.00 --> 1820.00] Yeah, I have. +[1820.00 --> 1821.00] It's surprisingly good. +[1821.00 --> 1822.00] Yep. +[1822.00 --> 1824.00] And I wouldn't be surprised if it worked something like that. +[1824.00 --> 1832.00] Yeah, so the way that works is the internet provider that I'm on, just by being a customer, they have Wi-Fi hotspots in all kinds of places. +[1832.00 --> 1835.00] Like, they're all named the same thing and they're all open. +[1835.00 --> 1838.00] So, you automatically connect and then there's like a web sign in thing. +[1838.00 --> 1839.00] Yeah. +[1839.00 --> 1841.00] But it's really good at remembering your account. +[1841.00 --> 1842.00] Like, really, really good. +[1842.00 --> 1847.00] So, every single time that it detects this open network, your phone will connect to it and it signs in immediately and it's all fine. +[1847.00 --> 1848.00] Yeah, it's super cool. +[1848.00 --> 1852.00] Like, even my, I don't know, what are they called? +[1852.00 --> 1853.00] Baby doctor. +[1853.00 --> 1854.00] Uh... +[1854.00 --> 1855.00] Whatever. +[1855.00 --> 1858.00] The family doctor for my wife's pregnancies. +[1858.00 --> 1861.00] Like, their waiting room has a shot open hotspots. +[1861.00 --> 1862.00] It's like, awesome, yay! +[1862.00 --> 1863.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1863.00 --> 1865.00] I guess I won't be using my mobile data right now. +[1865.00 --> 1866.00] Right. +[1866.00 --> 1867.00] Okay. +[1867.00 --> 1873.00] Uh, Dell's UP2715K 5K monitor. +[1873.00 --> 1877.00] This was rumored to be coming in at $2,500. +[1877.00 --> 1880.00] Uh, this was posted on the forum by Big Strooms, by the way. +[1880.00 --> 1883.00] And the original article is from guru3d.com. +[1883.00 --> 1889.00] But, uh, I think Apple might have forced Dell's hand a little bit here. +[1889.00 --> 1902.00] I think Dell was really hoping to have, you know, um, to resurrect the expensive monitor business that has basically disappeared since 30 inch, 2560 by 1600 monitors. +[1902.00 --> 1907.00] Well, those never came down in price, but the 2560 by 1440 27 inch varieties did. +[1907.00 --> 1908.00] Oh, yeah. +[1908.00 --> 1911.00] And ever since that business kind of went away, it looks like they were trying to resurrect this. +[1911.00 --> 1923.00] They wanted $2,500 for a monitor and then Apple turned around and bitch slapped them by giving you a fairly decent computer attached to that same panel in a beautiful enclosure for $3,500. +[1923.00 --> 1926.00] So, no brainer. +[1926.00 --> 1927.00] Go for the... +[1927.00 --> 1930.00] And you could use that computer as a monitor, right? +[1930.00 --> 1931.00] No. +[1931.00 --> 1932.00] Really? +[1932.00 --> 1933.00] The iMac? +[1933.00 --> 1934.00] There's no functionality for that at all? +[1934.00 --> 1935.00] No. +[1935.00 --> 1936.00] Um, older iMacs, yes. +[1936.00 --> 1940.00] They had some feature, I forget what it's called, who cares, it's an Apple feature. +[1940.00 --> 1943.00] Um, but like, I wish they just had a display input. +[1943.00 --> 1949.00] But this one uses, um, so, and actually Dell's implementation is very different from Apple's, I'll talk about that in a moment. +[1949.00 --> 1955.00] But the Apple one uses a custom wider, like it's physically wider and has more pins. +[1955.00 --> 1958.00] It is a non-standard DisplayPort connector. +[1958.00 --> 1959.00] Interesting. +[1959.00 --> 1962.00] That they worked with AMD on, presumably. +[1962.00 --> 1967.00] Uh, that they, in order to drive that panel as a single tile display. +[1967.00 --> 1970.00] So what that means is, there is no input. +[1970.00 --> 1971.00] Right. +[1971.00 --> 1972.00] That could drive it. +[1972.00 --> 1973.00] Yeah. +[1973.00 --> 1974.00] Alright then. +[1974.00 --> 1975.00] Yeah, so I get it. +[1975.00 --> 1976.00] Yeah. +[1976.00 --> 1980.00] And I understand that it is better to have a single tile display, so you don't see that weird tearing. +[1980.00 --> 1982.00] We have one dual tile display in the office. +[1982.00 --> 1983.00] Not really fair. +[1983.00 --> 1984.00] And it's not an ideal solution. +[1984.00 --> 1988.00] Um, but Dell's is going to be a dual tile display. +[1988.00 --> 1992.00] So it'll use two DisplayPort inputs, because DisplayPort 1.3 isn't here yet. +[1992.00 --> 1997.00] And it'll have, um, okay here, I guess I might as well just do a general spec. +[1997.00 --> 1999.00] I don't know if I would move up yet then. +[1999.00 --> 2005.00] A 5120 by 2880 resolution with 8 millisecond gray to gray response times, a thousand to one contrast ratio, +[2005.00 --> 2011.00] 350, uh, hold on, oh, 178, 178 viewing angles. +[2011.00 --> 2015.00] So basically, basically anywhere you would ever be looking at the screen. +[2015.00 --> 2019.00] It's got a double anti-reflective coating to allow more light to pass through the glass in the panel. +[2019.00 --> 2022.00] Features an anti-smudge coating to help wipe away fingerprints. +[2022.00 --> 2026.00] Uh, 99% RGB, 100% sRGB color space. +[2026.00 --> 2030.00] And calibrated with a color, Delta-color, Delta-E of less than two. +[2030.00 --> 2032.00] 12-bit internal processing. +[2032.00 --> 2035.00] So it's a 12-bit lookup table and the panel is 10-bit. +[2035.00 --> 2040.00] So it would be potentially useful for folks who use Adobe applications on Quadro, +[2040.00 --> 2044.00] or, um, Crap Fire Pro cards. +[2044.00 --> 2047.00] Um, and they want to work in 10-bit color. +[2047.00 --> 2050.00] Although the workflow is still fairly broken. +[2050.00 --> 2052.00] And, yeah. +[2052.00 --> 2055.00] So, yeah. +[2055.00 --> 2060.00] I guess there's not really much else to say about it other than I don't think it makes a ton of sense. +[2060.00 --> 2062.00] I was gonna say, I don't, I don't personally think it's ready. +[2062.00 --> 2064.00] I don't know if I would jump yet. +[2064.00 --> 2066.00] If I wanted a 5k monitor, I don't think this would be it. +[2066.00 --> 2072.00] If Windows, uh, is able to start scaling better. +[2072.00 --> 2073.00] That's a big problem. +[2073.00 --> 2082.00] Then this would be, actually, I would see this as the way to go for productivity applications versus media consumption. +[2082.00 --> 2086.00] Because it is exactly four times 2560 by 1440. +[2086.00 --> 2088.00] So the scaling could be relatively simple. +[2088.00 --> 2098.00] That's one of the reasons that it speculated that Apple went with 5k as opposed to 4k or Ultra HD, excuse me, for the iMac retina. +[2098.00 --> 2103.00] Um, cause really you didn't need to go 5k on that to make it retina. +[2103.00 --> 2104.00] Like it's overkill. +[2104.00 --> 2106.00] It's insanely sharp. +[2106.00 --> 2107.00] Yeah. +[2107.00 --> 2115.00] Um, but, the flip side of that argument is that 5k is not going to be as good for content consumption. +[2115.00 --> 2118.00] Because you are going to get interpolation. +[2118.00 --> 2122.00] Because you're gonna be running any movie content at a non-native res. +[2122.00 --> 2125.00] And there will be no 5k content anytime soon. +[2125.00 --> 2133.00] So upscaling from 1080p to 4k has that advantage of being exactly four times, excuse me, two times the resolution, four times the pixel count. +[2133.00 --> 2139.00] Um, and then scaling to 5k is just sort of a random arbitrary amount more than that. +[2139.00 --> 2143.00] So, there you go. +[2143.00 --> 2149.00] I see 5k as the creator resolution and I see 4k as the consumer resolution. +[2149.00 --> 2156.00] But we're a long way away from either of them really being practical in Windows because of the way that UI elements scale so poorly. +[2156.00 --> 2158.00] So, so, so poorly. +[2158.00 --> 2160.00] Not good at all. +[2160.00 --> 2168.00] And that was kind of, uh, almost like sad seeing you work on your Mac knowing that it's 5k and like it's fine. +[2168.00 --> 2169.00] Yeah, I know right? +[2169.00 --> 2170.00] Come on Windows. +[2170.00 --> 2171.00] It looks great. +[2171.00 --> 2172.00] It does. +[2172.00 --> 2173.00] I'm like, damn it. +[2173.00 --> 2176.00] Like every single time we hook up a 4k monitor to a computer, I'm like, this is unusable. +[2176.00 --> 2177.00] Like it looks so stupid. +[2177.00 --> 2181.00] And then you turn on the scaling and it's like, now just some things are unusual. +[2181.00 --> 2182.00] Yeah, yeah. +[2182.00 --> 2185.00] It's like, this is still super stupid. +[2185.00 --> 2186.00] What are you doing? +[2186.00 --> 2188.00] Oh, it's really frustrating. +[2188.00 --> 2197.00] Oh, we've got Scopeopex on Twitch chat saying letterbox equals no weird interpolation. +[2197.00 --> 2203.00] Come on man, you're gonna buy a 5k monitor and then you're gonna run black bars on all sides of your content. +[2203.00 --> 2205.00] Are you kidding me? +[2205.00 --> 2207.00] That's even worse. +[2207.00 --> 2216.00] I would rather, I would rather have approximations than gigantic black bars all across, all around the content. +[2216.00 --> 2222.00] Speaking of black bars all around the content, this was originally posted by Sephiroth on the forum. +[2222.00 --> 2226.00] Origin PC to sell, copy the link URL, sorry I'm just copying the link for you guys. +[2226.00 --> 2228.00] I'm trying to make a better habit of this. +[2228.00 --> 2229.00] Black bars. +[2229.00 --> 2230.00] Better job of doing this. +[2230.00 --> 2235.00] They're gonna be selling their Millennium and Genesis cases stand alone. +[2235.00 --> 2238.00] This is something that I, I, okay. +[2238.00 --> 2239.00] We asked for, actually. +[2239.00 --> 2241.00] Yeah, lots of people asked for it. +[2241.00 --> 2242.00] Yeah, yeah. +[2242.00 --> 2243.00] Cause it's a cool case. +[2243.00 --> 2244.00] So check this out guys. +[2244.00 --> 2250.00] Have you ever called up a boutique PC builder and asked them to buy their case? +[2250.00 --> 2253.00] No, because I have never called up a boutique PC builder. +[2253.00 --> 2254.00] Okay. +[2254.00 --> 2255.00] I did it once. +[2255.00 --> 2259.00] When, um, here I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna fire it up here. +[2259.00 --> 2262.00] Alienware, Star Wars. +[2262.00 --> 2263.00] Uh, that's not the one I wanted. +[2263.00 --> 2267.00] The drive cages on these cases are badass by the way. +[2267.00 --> 2268.00] There we go. +[2268.00 --> 2271.00] This is, this is the one. +[2271.00 --> 2275.00] I called Alienware and asked them if I could buy one. +[2275.00 --> 2276.00] I understand. +[2276.00 --> 2284.00] That was back when Alienware's case was actually a reasonably quote unquote cool design. +[2284.00 --> 2289.00] I was younger and vinyl wraps were not nearly as common or as accessible. +[2289.00 --> 2295.00] And I thought this was a stunning piece of Star Wars artwork that I would happily put my computer inside. +[2295.00 --> 2301.00] Even though I had a better actual case, like a better designed, better laid out case at the time. +[2301.00 --> 2304.00] I thought that limited edition one was worth it. +[2304.00 --> 2309.00] And I know a lot of people asked for Voodoo PC to sell their modified Li and Li case standalone. +[2309.00 --> 2313.00] It was a very beautiful case, but, uh, Origins is, is really cool as well. +[2313.00 --> 2319.00] So the neatest thing about them is that, and this is part of their five year anniversary celebration. +[2319.00 --> 2323.00] The neatest thing about them is that you can mount your motherboard in whatever orientation you want. +[2323.00 --> 2325.00] So we'll go ahead and fire up their video here. +[2325.00 --> 2331.00] This is such a slick video. +[2331.00 --> 2336.00] They're just showing off. +[2336.00 --> 2337.00] Yep. +[2337.00 --> 2351.00] So right side up, upside down, facing up, either which way, whatever you prefer. +[2351.00 --> 2354.00] And then their, their drive, drive mounting system is absolutely- +[2354.00 --> 2355.00] Their drive cages are sick. +[2355.00 --> 2356.00] Sick. +[2356.00 --> 2360.00] Um, they've got a, they've got an add on thing that you can put underneath it. +[2360.00 --> 2362.00] So you can add more drive cages or more rads. +[2362.00 --> 2363.00] Yeah. +[2363.00 --> 2364.00] Really cool case. +[2364.00 --> 2367.00] And, uh, I don't know how much they're charging for it, but- +[2367.00 --> 2369.00] $399 and $499. +[2369.00 --> 2370.00] Not cheap. +[2370.00 --> 2372.00] So if you want the, or wait, no, no, no. +[2372.00 --> 2373.00] $399 and $449. +[2373.00 --> 2374.00] There we go. +[2374.00 --> 2375.00] Not cheap. +[2375.00 --> 2377.00] Um, not out of the question either. +[2377.00 --> 2381.00] I believe the $449 one, it says it's like the full tower or whatever. +[2381.00 --> 2384.00] I think it's just the add on on the bottom and the same case on top. +[2384.00 --> 2385.00] Yeah. +[2385.00 --> 2386.00] I'm pretty sure. +[2386.00 --> 2387.00] Yep. +[2387.00 --> 2388.00] Um, but yeah, they're pretty sick. +[2388.00 --> 2390.00] I got to see them at, what was that? +[2390.00 --> 2391.00] E3, I think. +[2391.00 --> 2395.00] I first saw one back at, um, CES. +[2395.00 --> 2396.00] That was when they launched it. +[2396.00 --> 2397.00] Yeah. +[2397.00 --> 2398.00] Yeah. +[2398.00 --> 2399.00] Nvidia had it in their booth. +[2399.00 --> 2400.00] Yeah. +[2400.00 --> 2401.00] And, uh, yeah, I thought it was pretty cool. +[2401.00 --> 2402.00] They're cool. +[2402.00 --> 2403.00] All right. +[2403.00 --> 2405.00] So why don't we actually do our, why don't we do our sponsors? +[2405.00 --> 2406.00] All right. +[2406.00 --> 2408.00] In a timely manner for a change. +[2408.00 --> 2411.00] Last few weeks, I've like completely forgotten about them. +[2411.00 --> 2412.00] Well, it's $5.50. +[2412.00 --> 2414.00] Let's cover our sponsors now. +[2414.00 --> 2415.00] Yeah. +[2415.00 --> 2418.00] I guess we should probably actually do that. +[2418.00 --> 2419.00] Okay. +[2419.00 --> 2420.00] Thank you. +[2420.00 --> 2422.00] Uh, so our first sponsor this week is Lynda.com. +[2422.00 --> 2426.00] You can have as much fun as she does learning online. +[2426.00 --> 2433.00] Lynda.com is a great way to pick up new skills, whether it's photography, video editing, coding +[2433.00 --> 2435.00] is a really, really big one over at Lynda.com. +[2435.00 --> 2436.00] Yep. +[2436.00 --> 2438.00] Um, did I say video editing already? +[2438.00 --> 2439.00] Well, you did now. +[2439.00 --> 2444.00] Well, video editing is very close to my heart just because we've got now, are we up to three +[2444.00 --> 2449.00] people here that have used Lynda.com and learned skills that they now use here daily? +[2449.00 --> 2451.00] Taren, Taren, me and someone. +[2451.00 --> 2452.00] I thought it was, uh, was it Burkle? +[2452.00 --> 2453.00] Maybe. +[2453.00 --> 2454.00] I think so. +[2454.00 --> 2455.00] Okay. +[2455.00 --> 2456.00] I'll have to find out about that. +[2456.00 --> 2458.00] But anyway, Lynda.com really does teach you things. +[2458.00 --> 2459.00] It's awesome. +[2459.00 --> 2465.00] So, you sign up for courses, you get this curated content from industry experts, there's new +[2465.00 --> 2470.00] content being added all the time, it's inexpensive, and you can learn completely at your own pace. +[2470.00 --> 2478.00] So, if you kind of go, oh, well, I'm only gonna, you know, do like one video this week and maybe +[2478.00 --> 2483.00] next week I'll blow it off entirely, but the week after that I'm gonna cram like crazy, then it's +[2483.00 --> 2484.00] basically like, wow. +[2484.00 --> 2485.00] Wow. +[2485.00 --> 2486.00] It's a subscription-based service. +[2486.00 --> 2488.00] Ultimately, what do they care how much you use it? +[2488.00 --> 2491.00] Use it however much you want or not however much you want. +[2491.00 --> 2492.00] And that's totally cool with Wanda. +[2492.00 --> 2494.00] It's like wow, but you level up in real life. +[2494.00 --> 2495.00] Yes. +[2495.00 --> 2499.00] It's like wow, except nothing like wow. +[2499.00 --> 2501.00] It's like wow in that you pay for it monthly. +[2501.00 --> 2503.00] Everything else is not the same. +[2503.00 --> 2504.00] Not even close. +[2504.00 --> 2505.00] And it's at your computer. +[2505.00 --> 2506.00] I guess there's that. +[2506.00 --> 2507.00] Yeah. +[2507.00 --> 2508.00] Or your phone. +[2508.00 --> 2511.00] You could learn skills in wow that are transferable to real life. +[2511.00 --> 2512.00] Communication skills. +[2512.00 --> 2513.00] Yeah. +[2513.00 --> 2514.00] Yelling at people. +[2514.00 --> 2516.00] Yelling at people is not a skill. +[2516.00 --> 2517.00] Well. +[2517.00 --> 2518.00] You wanna be a drill sergeant? +[2518.00 --> 2519.00] Yeah. +[2519.00 --> 2520.00] You could be a raid leader, then go be a drill sergeant. +[2520.00 --> 2525.00] Yeah, but to be a drill sergeant you'd have to, okay, so you'd have to have like a healthy, +[2525.00 --> 2528.00] balanced diet of wow and going to the gym. +[2528.00 --> 2529.00] Yes. +[2529.00 --> 2530.00] Unlikely. +[2530.00 --> 2531.00] But possible. +[2531.00 --> 2532.00] Really? +[2532.00 --> 2533.00] You're gonna be like that? +[2533.00 --> 2534.00] You're gonna stereotype? +[2534.00 --> 2535.00] I said but possible. +[2535.00 --> 2537.00] Alright, so lynda.com slash wanshow for a free seven day trial. +[2537.00 --> 2540.00] You can try it out if you like it, then try it out. +[2540.00 --> 2543.00] And if you don't like it, then wait, if you like it, then try it out. +[2543.00 --> 2545.00] No, if you like it, then you stay subscribed. +[2545.00 --> 2547.00] And if you don't like it, then you don't have to. +[2547.00 --> 2549.00] No, you definitely, you know how they go on like super long marches? +[2549.00 --> 2550.00] Sure. +[2550.00 --> 2551.00] Yes. +[2551.00 --> 2552.00] Oh wow. +[2552.00 --> 2555.00] You just treadmill under your computer desk. +[2555.00 --> 2558.00] So you're on like a permanent march while playing wow. +[2558.00 --> 2562.00] So if you wanted to be a drill sergeant, you could be that dude that like runs in front of everyone and is like, +[2562.00 --> 2564.00] look at me, I'm faster than all of you. +[2564.00 --> 2565.00] Okay. +[2565.00 --> 2566.00] I'm crazy endurance. +[2566.00 --> 2575.00] If you want to be a drill that makes you actually hike as far as you have to hike in that bloody game, by the time you got an epic mount, you'd be in great shape. +[2575.00 --> 2583.00] If you mount up, you have to run like, so if you get a hundred percent speed mount, you would have to run a hundred percent faster than you normally would be moving. +[2583.00 --> 2587.00] So if you get like a flying mount, you're just like full out sprinting. +[2587.00 --> 2589.00] So no one would even want mounts anymore. +[2589.00 --> 2590.00] The value would plummet. +[2590.00 --> 2594.00] It would cause an economic crisis in the world of Warcraft. +[2594.00 --> 2600.00] The walk button would be used so much more because I wouldn't want to go slowly. +[2600.00 --> 2603.00] The whole game would come to a grinding halt. +[2603.00 --> 2613.00] If you had like, if you had like a noclip hack and you were just sitting above the world, you'd just see like these entire towns of people walking like this. +[2613.00 --> 2614.00] That's the middle of a fight. +[2614.00 --> 2618.00] And it's like, I can't get away from this scorpion because I'm too tired. +[2618.00 --> 2619.00] Don't stand in the fire. +[2619.00 --> 2621.00] I'm too tired to move. +[2621.00 --> 2623.00] I have to stand in the fire. +[2623.00 --> 2624.00] Heal me. +[2624.00 --> 2625.00] Heal me. +[2625.00 --> 2629.00] I'm just gonna, I'm gonna stay right here in the middle of this area of effects spell. +[2629.00 --> 2630.00] It'll be fine. +[2630.00 --> 2631.00] Just deal with it. +[2631.00 --> 2633.00] Um, okay. +[2633.00 --> 2635.00] So on to our next sponsor. +[2635.00 --> 2637.00] Someone should make that video game so it can fail. +[2637.00 --> 2638.00] Ugh. +[2638.00 --> 2639.00] Kickstarter it. +[2639.00 --> 2640.00] Yeah. +[2640.00 --> 2641.00] Yeah. +[2641.00 --> 2642.00] Okay. +[2642.00 --> 2644.00] So our next sponsor is 5-4 Club. +[2644.00 --> 2649.00] And we are, this is more of a reminder than an announcement because we already announced +[2649.00 --> 2653.00] this, but they are doing an epic giveaway. +[2653.00 --> 2663.00] They are giving away retail price, $7,200 or more in clothing to one lucky winner. +[2663.00 --> 2668.00] And something I didn't even think of that you mentioned offline last time is what a cool +[2668.00 --> 2670.00] thing for a college student to win. +[2670.00 --> 2671.00] Yeah. +[2671.00 --> 2677.00] If you could like show up, it's like your first, first year and you have five years +[2677.00 --> 2679.00] of 5-4 Club membership. +[2679.00 --> 2685.00] So you can look like a boss every day on campus, always new threads and it doesn't cost you +[2685.00 --> 2686.00] a dollar. +[2686.00 --> 2687.00] What a freaking cool prize. +[2687.00 --> 2690.00] Cause I know there's a lot of different ways for companies to handle prizes. +[2690.00 --> 2695.00] Like they could do one month subscriptions for 60 people. +[2695.00 --> 2696.00] Yeah. +[2696.00 --> 2699.00] And there's some benefit to that cause you're, you know, getting, you're giving a little bit +[2699.00 --> 2704.00] to a lot of people or you can put together like a super awesome prize pack, which is what +[2704.00 --> 2705.00] they've done here. +[2705.00 --> 2709.00] That'll basically give someone all the wardrobe they'll need realistically. +[2709.00 --> 2712.00] I mean, if you're subscribed to 5-4 Club for five years. +[2712.00 --> 2713.00] Okay. +[2713.00 --> 2717.00] So the way, the way it works is you pay 60 bucks a month and they send you a retail value +[2717.00 --> 2724.00] on their site of $120 or more of clothing that your personal style assistant picks out for +[2724.00 --> 2725.00] you and then ships to you. +[2725.00 --> 2731.00] So that is, that is realistically kind of a couple shirts and like a bottom or sometimes +[2731.00 --> 2737.00] shoes or whatever else once a month for five years, you're going to have so much clothing. +[2737.00 --> 2741.00] Especially if you're in like the college range where you're probably, if you're not +[2741.00 --> 2743.00] done growing, you're getting close to it. +[2743.00 --> 2749.00] So guys, you head over to the bit.ly right here, bit.ly slash FFC giveaway. +[2749.00 --> 2752.00] And once you enter, you can share it on social media. +[2752.00 --> 2754.00] Each friend you refer gets you three more entries. +[2754.00 --> 2757.00] The winning, the entries close November 23rd. +[2757.00 --> 2759.00] So that's in two days. +[2759.00 --> 2762.00] And the winning draw takes place November 25th. +[2762.00 --> 2763.00] I think it's a super cool thing. +[2763.00 --> 2767.00] And don't worry guys, if you don't win, then you can still go through the, what was it? +[2767.00 --> 2768.00] One minute. +[2768.00 --> 2770.00] I can never remember how fast they say the survey is. +[2770.00 --> 2771.00] It's really short. +[2771.00 --> 2772.00] Really fast. +[2772.00 --> 2773.00] Go through a survey. +[2773.00 --> 2774.00] I think it's a minute. +[2774.00 --> 2776.00] Give them your sizes, your style preferences, and you can get hooked up and look good without +[2776.00 --> 2780.00] ever having to go to a store and feel like everyone is judging you whenever you try things +[2780.00 --> 2783.00] on that aren't cool, which is what I do. +[2783.00 --> 2786.00] Yeah, this is what happens when we shop for ourselves. +[2786.00 --> 2788.00] Five Four Club, don't look like us. +[2788.00 --> 2789.00] Yeah. +[2789.00 --> 2790.00] There you go. +[2790.00 --> 2791.00] Problem solved. +[2791.00 --> 2792.00] Oh, geez. +[2792.00 --> 2793.00] Okay. +[2793.00 --> 2796.00] So shall we tackle, shall we tackle that big topic now? +[2796.00 --> 2797.00] Which big topic? +[2797.00 --> 2798.00] The like, our big topic? +[2798.00 --> 2799.00] Our big topic. +[2799.00 --> 2800.00] Okay, sure. +[2800.00 --> 2801.00] Okay, let's talk about our big topic. +[2801.00 --> 2803.00] I don't know how you want to do this, but you go to town. +[2803.00 --> 2807.00] Okay, so we recently launched our crowdfunding campaign. +[2807.00 --> 2813.00] We had talked about this on WAN Show before, how we're going to be moving into a new office, +[2813.00 --> 2817.00] and some people have been extremely receptive, and we've actually got over... +[2817.00 --> 2818.00] Is that right? +[2818.00 --> 2819.00] Uh... +[2819.00 --> 2821.00] Since we started the show, it's gone up that much? +[2821.00 --> 2824.00] Well, remember, it's being manually updated. +[2824.00 --> 2825.00] Right. +[2825.00 --> 2826.00] Okay, so it might even be more than that. +[2826.00 --> 2827.00] And that's the Canadian value. +[2827.00 --> 2828.00] Yeah, yeah, that's fine. +[2828.00 --> 2829.00] I know. +[2829.00 --> 2830.00] Yeah. +[2830.00 --> 2831.00] Okay, well... +[2831.00 --> 2832.00] So it'll be a little bit more than that. +[2832.00 --> 2833.00] Some of you have been awesome. +[2833.00 --> 2835.00] You've been incredibly supportive. +[2835.00 --> 2836.00] Um... +[2836.00 --> 2840.00] Whether you've actually contributed to the campaign or not, you've been supportive of the idea. +[2840.00 --> 2841.00] Um... +[2841.00 --> 2843.00] Some of you have raised some objections to it. +[2843.00 --> 2845.00] Raised some concerns. +[2845.00 --> 2846.00] Voiced some concerns. +[2846.00 --> 2847.00] Something some objections. +[2847.00 --> 2848.00] There have been objections. +[2848.00 --> 2853.00] So what I said on Twitter, uh, this morning, was that I would try to address what I thought +[2853.00 --> 2857.00] were the most common objections here on WAN Show today. +[2857.00 --> 2861.00] And then what we'll do is I'll commit to do a short after party with you guys where we'll +[2861.00 --> 2866.00] do some, uh, some Twitter and Twitch interactions so you guys can let me know if there's anything +[2866.00 --> 2867.00] that you're still concerned about. +[2867.00 --> 2869.00] So, question number one. +[2869.00 --> 2872.00] Why don't you guys have lower contribution tiers, like a dollar? +[2872.00 --> 2875.00] The answer is, right now, everything is going through PayPal. +[2875.00 --> 2881.00] And for very small transactions, their proportion of the payment is actually much higher, especially +[2881.00 --> 2883.00] for something as small as a dollar. +[2883.00 --> 2887.00] So rather than encouraging the members of our community who can least afford it, the +[2887.00 --> 2892.00] people who can only afford to give a dollar, to basically give money to PayPal, I would +[2892.00 --> 2896.00] just assume you guys keep it and support us in some other way by like, say for example, +[2896.00 --> 2897.00] watching videos. +[2897.00 --> 2898.00] You don't have to give us money. +[2898.00 --> 2899.00] Or... +[2899.00 --> 2902.00] Yeah, watching videos, describing, liking, disliking, posting on the forum, having a forum +[2902.00 --> 2903.00] account. +[2903.00 --> 2908.00] All of that is more helpful than padding PayPal's pockets as far as I'm concerned. +[2908.00 --> 2909.00] Yeah. +[2909.00 --> 2910.00] Question number two. +[2910.00 --> 2911.00] Your stretch targets are ridiculous. +[2911.00 --> 2912.00] Why are they so high? +[2912.00 --> 2915.00] The answer is, you're right, they were ridiculous. +[2915.00 --> 2918.00] They were much higher than they should have been initially and a big part of the reason +[2918.00 --> 2922.00] for that is we weren't really sure how much momentum the campaign would have. +[2922.00 --> 2927.00] Like, we didn't know if it was going to be overwhelming outpouring of support or if it +[2927.00 --> 2929.00] was going to completely go nowhere. +[2929.00 --> 2933.00] We didn't want to trap ourselves by putting ourselves in a situation where all of a sudden, +[2933.00 --> 2939.00] we've got to hit every stretch, stretch target commitment in like a week or something like +[2939.00 --> 2940.00] that. +[2940.00 --> 2946.00] So now that we can see how things are tracking, we have completely rearranged the stretch targets +[2946.00 --> 2949.00] to make them much more realistic and much more attainable. +[2949.00 --> 2952.00] In fact, the first one has already been achieved. +[2952.00 --> 2956.00] We have finally fixed Luke's Twitter handle on the WAN show. +[2956.00 --> 2957.00] Yes. +[2957.00 --> 2961.00] And it's possible that the second one has actually been achieved already. +[2961.00 --> 2963.00] It's possible that more have been achieved. +[2963.00 --> 2964.00] There's a slight problem. +[2964.00 --> 2965.00] Thank you. +[2965.00 --> 2967.00] Sorry, I have to interject here for a little bit. +[2967.00 --> 2968.00] Thank you, Mr. Wizard. +[2968.00 --> 2971.00] There's like no way that anything would be even remotely running right now if it wasn't +[2971.00 --> 2972.00] for Mr. Wizard. +[2972.00 --> 2974.00] Like not even close. +[2974.00 --> 2976.00] So I just want to put that out there. +[2976.00 --> 2978.00] Thanks, Mr. Wizard. +[2978.00 --> 2979.00] And the problem is- +[2979.00 --> 2981.00] We should call him Lord Wizard from now on. +[2981.00 --> 2982.00] Lord Wizard. +[2982.00 --> 2984.00] Or the Wizard. +[2984.00 --> 2990.00] The problem is the call that we're making to get the amount raised, dollar value, doesn't +[2990.00 --> 2993.00] take into account money that is pending. +[2993.00 --> 2994.00] Okay. +[2994.00 --> 2997.00] So we can't get the actual value so we're currently hard coding that. +[2997.00 --> 3000.00] Just so you guys know, like overnight or something, if it doesn't move for a really long +[3000.00 --> 3004.00] time, it's not because we're not counting your donations. +[3004.00 --> 3007.00] It's because you've got to sleep for a little bit, wake up, and then we'll manually update +[3007.00 --> 3008.00] it. +[3008.00 --> 3009.00] All right. +[3009.00 --> 3010.00] Question number three. +[3010.00 --> 3011.00] Aren't you guys a business? +[3011.00 --> 3013.00] Why aren't you seeking investment or taking out a loan? +[3013.00 --> 3017.00] The answer is because some of you want to help us- no, that's the wrong answer. +[3017.00 --> 3021.00] Yes, we are business, but those of you savvy enough to figure out these types of business +[3021.00 --> 3025.00] strategies should also be savvy enough to know that moving into a much larger space is +[3025.00 --> 3030.00] going to cost a lot more than $50,000, our goal for the campaign, even in the short term. +[3030.00 --> 3034.00] So we're exploring every avenue necessary to grow and keep delivering the best content that +[3034.00 --> 3037.00] we can, regardless of how much we raise during this campaign. +[3037.00 --> 3041.00] And then the question number four then is, so then why are you asking for money at all? +[3041.00 --> 3044.00] And the answer is because some of you want to help us in this way. +[3044.00 --> 3049.00] We've done campaigns like this before with similar rewards, things like badges on the +[3049.00 --> 3053.00] forum, and people have said that they're happy to be able to contribute in this way. +[3053.00 --> 3058.00] In fact, a lot of people don't like the recurring contributor system that funds the forum and +[3058.00 --> 3061.00] prefer something that's a one-shot deal. +[3061.00 --> 3066.00] The last time we did this was over a year ago, so it's not like we're turning around and running +[3066.00 --> 3069.00] a new crowdfunding campaign every other month or anything like that. +[3069.00 --> 3072.00] It's something that we have been asked for. +[3072.00 --> 3077.00] So for those people who do want to help us out like this, then we want to send our gratitude. +[3077.00 --> 3083.00] And to everyone else, I mean, we're still grateful because every contribution, even one view on a video, counts. +[3083.00 --> 3086.00] The thing to realize here is this is all optional. +[3086.00 --> 3088.00] We're not holding our content hostage. +[3088.00 --> 3094.00] We're not saying we're going to stop making tech videos if we don't hit this goal. +[3094.00 --> 3096.00] Nothing happens if we don't hit the goal. +[3096.00 --> 3102.00] It's just if you guys want to contribute, if you want to see some of the cool stretch targets, then go ahead and contribute to the campaign. +[3102.00 --> 3103.00] Or don't. +[3103.00 --> 3104.00] It's fine. +[3104.00 --> 3105.00] It's cool. +[3105.00 --> 3106.00] We're still cool. +[3106.00 --> 3107.00] It's all good. +[3107.00 --> 3108.00] Yeah. +[3108.00 --> 3109.00] Question number five. +[3109.00 --> 3113.00] Travis just sent me FIRE in all capital letters, and I'm like, what? +[3113.00 --> 3114.00] He's like, things are on fire. +[3114.00 --> 3115.00] I know what you did. +[3115.00 --> 3116.00] You announced. +[3116.00 --> 3119.00] He's like, oh my god. +[3119.00 --> 3123.00] So next question is why do you guys have any cool physical rewards? +[3123.00 --> 3126.00] And this actually ties into the last one. +[3126.00 --> 3134.00] We're asking for money so we can move into a bigger space, hire more people and make better content, not so we can sell you a bunch of stickers, t-shirts, and hats. +[3134.00 --> 3138.00] If you want to contribute to Linus Media Group by buying a t-shirt, then go buy a t-shirt. +[3138.00 --> 3139.00] We have t-shirts. +[3139.00 --> 3140.00] Hooray. +[3140.00 --> 3142.00] We don't need to do a campaign for that. +[3142.00 --> 3145.00] So on both of our web shops, we have a variety of different shirts. +[3145.00 --> 3152.00] The usual complaint about the web shops when people say, well, I'd like to buy a t-shirt except, is, OMG, the shipping is so expensive. +[3152.00 --> 3163.00] To which I'd reply, well, then I guess you figured out why physical merchandise would basically kill any possibility of this campaign funding a move. +[3163.00 --> 3166.00] The cost doesn't go away because it's a special crowdfunding t-shirt. +[3166.00 --> 3175.00] So out of that, let's say a $25 reward tier, I'd say is pretty typical for a t-shirt, actually on the high end, we'd still be paying $8 a shirt because we do all of our shirts on American Apparel. +[3175.00 --> 3179.00] And up to another $13 more for international shipping. +[3179.00 --> 3183.00] And we're in Canada, so we don't even get cheap domestic shipping to the US. +[3183.00 --> 3186.00] And people were wondering too about signed stuff. +[3186.00 --> 3192.00] That's even way worse because we'd have to get it shipped over the border to us and then back over the border somewhere else. +[3192.00 --> 3195.00] We actually wanted, I mean, and these aren't, it's not like these aren't ideas we've had. +[3195.00 --> 3197.00] We wanted to do signed posters. +[3197.00 --> 3198.00] We looked into it. +[3198.00 --> 3199.00] We had them printed, they're here. +[3199.00 --> 3204.00] But the problem is that the design didn't end up looking good at all, so we canned it. +[3204.00 --> 3206.00] But it is something that we do plan to do at some point. +[3206.00 --> 3217.00] It's just when we're doing a physical merchandise thing, we don't plan, the idea of this is for us to be funding making better and more content for you guys, +[3217.00 --> 3224.00] not to fund us sitting in the new office packing boxes to ship t-shirts all over the world or whatever else. +[3224.00 --> 3232.00] And yes, that's a bit of an exaggeration because you could get a service to do that, but then again you're spending even more of the money on having a service take care of it for you. +[3232.00 --> 3235.00] Which leads us to the last question. +[3235.00 --> 3239.00] I don't want to contribute because investing in a company without any ROI is stupid. +[3239.00 --> 3241.00] I want to be a stakeholder. +[3241.00 --> 3243.00] To which I would reply, we don't want stakeholders. +[3243.00 --> 3248.00] And I suspect neither do the people who are contributing to the new office expansion. +[3248.00 --> 3251.00] The closest thing that we actually have to direct backers for our company. +[3251.00 --> 3261.00] If we had stakeholders and all of a sudden there might be pressure to start paying dividends instead of using that money on responsible things like new gear and sets and employees, +[3261.00 --> 3267.00] we'd be potentially accountable for the kind of content we're making to some random that the community has never even met. +[3267.00 --> 3276.00] People are contributing, the ones that are contributing, because they want me in charge, not some shadow lurking in the background potentially pulling strings. +[3276.00 --> 3281.00] We've stayed away from investment other than this crazy person investing everything, +[3281.00 --> 3286.00] because it is a scary concept of other people having control over the company. +[3286.00 --> 3288.00] So we're not really interested in that. +[3288.00 --> 3292.00] And I can't emphasize that enough, by the way here's the link to the campaign. +[3292.00 --> 3304.00] I can't emphasize enough that just because we're crowdfunding this doesn't mean that I'm not personally invested and that we're not reinvesting the company's profits into it. +[3304.00 --> 3311.00] It's not like, I mean you guys I think see that, you know, it's not like I actually drive a Lambo. +[3311.00 --> 3315.00] I don't actually just blow all my money on frivolous crap. +[3315.00 --> 3317.00] Like, we're trying to do something here. +[3317.00 --> 3319.00] We're trying to make more and better content all the time. +[3319.00 --> 3321.00] And I hope you guys do genuinely see that. +[3321.00 --> 3329.00] And right now, being in a kitchen is just not the right way for us to move forward with this. +[3329.00 --> 3331.00] So that's where we're at. +[3331.00 --> 3333.00] Yeah, I just, yeah. +[3333.00 --> 3337.00] I have to give a shout out again to Mr. Wizard for being awesome. +[3337.00 --> 3340.00] We were both up to ridiculous hours of the morning. +[3340.00 --> 3341.00] Last morning? +[3341.00 --> 3342.00] This morning? +[3342.00 --> 3343.00] Last night this morning. +[3343.00 --> 3347.00] Anyways, he had like three hours of sleep before he went to work and I think he's at work right now. +[3347.00 --> 3351.00] So, hi Mr. Wizard, you're probably not watching because you're probably busy working. +[3351.00 --> 3352.00] But, yeah. +[3352.00 --> 3361.00] So anyway, we made the big thing here is I think we made the reward tiers a lot more fun. +[3361.00 --> 3362.00] Super fun. +[3362.00 --> 3363.00] And a lot more attainable. +[3363.00 --> 3364.00] Super fun. +[3364.00 --> 3368.00] So we're like 400 bucks away from releasing the original Stormtrooper rap audio. +[3368.00 --> 3372.00] Something that a lot of people asked for and I said would never happen but Luke and Nick insisted. +[3372.00 --> 3376.00] Wanshow made up as girls comes another 3,000 after that. +[3376.00 --> 3379.00] Luke does a Linus Tech Tips video under fire. +[3379.00 --> 3380.00] I'm actually so excited. +[3380.00 --> 3383.00] So we get to throw stuff at him the entire time he's filming. +[3383.00 --> 3384.00] Yeah. +[3384.00 --> 3388.00] Linus does a Linus Tech Tips video in upper body paint that the entire rest of the company +[3388.00 --> 3390.00] gets to draw on him and design. +[3390.00 --> 3399.00] Channel Super Fun comes $2,500 after that and is going to be a video where Luke and I each +[3399.00 --> 3402.00] get the remotes for shot callers that each other wears for an entire day. +[3402.00 --> 3408.00] So it's going to be the most aggressive day or the like most kind and polite day at Linus Media Group ever. +[3408.00 --> 3410.00] Really not sure which way it's going to go with that. +[3410.00 --> 3413.00] But basically we think we fixed it. +[3413.00 --> 3417.00] I'll stick around for After Party and I'll talk with you guys if you still have some concerns. +[3417.00 --> 3418.00] And let's go from there. +[3418.00 --> 3420.00] But for now I think we've spent enough time during this. +[3420.00 --> 3423.00] And let's move on to... +[3425.00 --> 3427.00] Oh, oh balls. +[3427.00 --> 3428.00] Oh. +[3428.00 --> 3429.00] Awkward. +[3429.00 --> 3430.00] Awkward. +[3430.00 --> 3431.00] Ah. +[3431.00 --> 3432.00] Nah. +[3432.00 --> 3433.00] Yeah. +[3433.00 --> 3434.00] There we go. +[3434.00 --> 3440.00] Let's move on to keep on digging our Ubisoft segment of the week. +[3440.00 --> 3441.00] Ubisoft remove... +[3441.00 --> 3442.00] Actually, oh no, that one's good. +[3442.00 --> 3446.00] I'm actually going to move that lower third when I talk about the next one. +[3446.00 --> 3447.00] This is updated in real time. +[3447.00 --> 3448.00] Okay, cool. +[3448.00 --> 3449.00] In real time now? +[3449.00 --> 3450.00] Like it's fixed? +[3450.00 --> 3451.00] In like... +[3451.00 --> 3454.00] Oh, okay, so we're like 150 bucks away from Stormtrooper wrap. +[3454.00 --> 3455.00] In real wizard time. +[3455.00 --> 3457.00] And yes, we're like 150 bucks away from Stormtrooper wrap. +[3457.00 --> 3462.00] Alright, so Ubisoft says they will improve Assassin's Creed Unity performance. +[3462.00 --> 3467.00] They still don't seem to be actually acknowledging what the problems were. +[3467.00 --> 3470.00] This was originally posted by that cool blue kid on the forum. +[3470.00 --> 3474.00] And the original articles are from assassinscreed.uby.com and kitguru.net. +[3474.00 --> 3477.00] I think I'm going to go with the kitguru link for you guys since... +[3477.00 --> 3480.00] Since it's not an Assassin's Creed page. +[3480.00 --> 3482.00] Since it's not a UB page. +[3482.00 --> 3483.00] Yeah. +[3483.00 --> 3487.00] Basically, they plan the following revisions. +[3487.00 --> 3491.00] Streamlining some technical aspects of navigation. +[3491.00 --> 3492.00] So they've... +[3492.00 --> 3493.00] This is really funny. +[3493.00 --> 3494.00] I love the way they word this. +[3494.00 --> 3499.30] We've fixed a number of edge cases with our detection system to smooth certain behaviors +[3499.30 --> 3500.80] during parkour. +[3500.80 --> 3505.00] We've fixed a few objects which were improperly tagged to smooth navigation. +[3505.00 --> 3511.00] Okay, because that was the only problem people had with the game, I guess. +[3511.00 --> 3512.00] And edge cases. +[3512.00 --> 3514.00] No, we're not talking edge cases, guys. +[3514.00 --> 3517.00] We're talking performance issues across the board. +[3517.00 --> 3518.00] Alright, next up. +[3518.00 --> 3519.00] In certain edge cases. +[3519.00 --> 3520.00] Jesus. +[3520.00 --> 3521.00] Improved task scheduling. +[3521.00 --> 3527.00] We've tuned the way the computing tasks are prioritized and parallelized by the processor +[3527.00 --> 3530.00] cores to improve frame rate in certain edge cases. +[3530.00 --> 3531.00] Parallelized. +[3531.00 --> 3532.00] Okay. +[3532.00 --> 3535.00] And then tweaking performance for reach high points. +[3535.00 --> 3540.00] We've optimized the reach high points during the camera swooping sequence to improve frame rate a little bit. +[3540.00 --> 3545.00] And they're saying crowd size does not affect frame rate and is not the issue. +[3545.00 --> 3548.00] I don't think anyone was saying crowd size was the issue. +[3548.00 --> 3552.00] Because honestly, the models are not that detailed compared to... +[3552.00 --> 3553.00] Come on. +[3553.00 --> 3554.00] Like anything. +[3554.00 --> 3555.00] Like anything. +[3555.00 --> 3559.00] I mean, they're detailed compared to like Rome Total War. +[3559.00 --> 3560.00] Yeah. +[3560.00 --> 3561.00] But... +[3561.00 --> 3563.00] Again, I can't say this enough. +[3563.00 --> 3565.00] You're losing to freaking COD. +[3565.00 --> 3566.00] Like hardcore. +[3566.00 --> 3569.00] Okay, so the models aren't that detailed in the first place. +[3569.00 --> 3575.00] I mean, but they, in their own promotional materials, in their own statements, they're saying... +[3575.00 --> 3576.00] What was it? +[3576.00 --> 3578.00] Notre Dame alone was how many polygons? +[3578.00 --> 3579.00] Yeah. +[3579.00 --> 3582.00] I don't remember it all, but it was a crazy amount. +[3582.00 --> 3583.00] Polygons. +[3583.00 --> 3586.00] All the buildings are absolutely insane. +[3586.00 --> 3591.00] And that's where the alleged rumored draw call bottleneck is occurring. +[3591.00 --> 3595.00] Not from on-screen characters scaling Notre Dame. +[3595.00 --> 3598.00] Although I'm sure not on-screen characters aren't exactly easy. +[3598.00 --> 3600.00] Yeah, but to say... +[3600.00 --> 3603.00] And I can't imagine that reducing crowd size wouldn't help. +[3603.00 --> 3606.00] To say they don't affect it is silly. +[3606.00 --> 3607.00] Yeah. +[3607.00 --> 3610.00] But to think that that's the problem... +[3610.00 --> 3611.00] Yeah. +[3611.00 --> 3612.00] ...as I don't think correct either. +[3612.00 --> 3613.00] No. +[3613.00 --> 3614.00] Alright, so... +[3614.00 --> 3618.00] It would be nice if they just had a slider where you could just control crowd size. +[3618.00 --> 3620.00] So you're like, hey, done. +[3620.00 --> 3622.00] That was it for Keep On Diggin'. +[3622.00 --> 3625.00] Let's move into something Ubisoft did that I personally like. +[3626.00 --> 3631.00] Ubisoft removes field of view controls in some Far Cry 4 torrents. +[3631.00 --> 3632.00] I just thought that was funny. +[3632.00 --> 3634.00] This was posted by Inmigor on the forum. +[3634.00 --> 3637.00] And the original article we have here is from Gamespot.com. +[3637.00 --> 3638.00] So I'll go ahead and post that. +[3638.00 --> 3643.00] But certain Far Cry torrents contain an error which removes the game's field of view controls. +[3643.00 --> 3646.00] Alex Hutchinson, a creative director at Ubisoft Montreal, wrote on Twitter, +[3646.00 --> 3647.00] PC players! +[3647.00 --> 3653.00] If you're online complaining about the lack of FOV control, you pirated the game! +[3653.00 --> 3660.00] In September, Electronic Arts placed a bug into pirated copy of The Sims 4 where the image becomes increasingly pixelated. +[3660.00 --> 3663.00] This is not the first time we've seen a strategy like this. +[3663.00 --> 3667.00] And personally, I really like it because... +[3667.00 --> 3669.00] I really liked the... +[3669.00 --> 3670.00] What is it? +[3670.00 --> 3671.00] Like, game... +[3671.00 --> 3672.00] Game... +[3672.00 --> 3674.00] Game creation simulator or Game Tycoon or something? +[3674.00 --> 3677.00] Well, yeah, but not everyone can include that game with their game or something. +[3678.00 --> 3682.00] Like, where the game you fail and your company goes bankrupt because... +[3682.00 --> 3683.00] Because of piracy. +[3683.00 --> 3684.00] Yes. +[3684.00 --> 3685.00] That was the best. +[3685.00 --> 3686.00] And like, no, I know. +[3686.00 --> 3687.00] Of course not everyone can do something like that. +[3687.00 --> 3689.00] I just thought that one was super good. +[3689.00 --> 3690.00] What I like about this... +[3690.00 --> 3693.00] This strategy is how realistic it is. +[3693.00 --> 3698.00] Instead of going, okay, our DRM is unbreakable. +[3700.00 --> 3707.00] Instead of even bothering to say that, they just go, okay, we're gonna put DRM in, we're gonna at least get around the... +[3707.00 --> 3711.00] And to imagine that DRM doesn't stop some pirates is stupid. +[3711.00 --> 3712.00] It's stupid. +[3712.00 --> 3714.00] You're stupid, go be stupid somewhere else. +[3714.00 --> 3716.00] Because DRM does stop some pirates. +[3716.00 --> 3719.00] The problem is that it also interferes with regular players. +[3719.00 --> 3723.00] And I think you could make arguments for it being gotten rid of at all. +[3723.00 --> 3729.00] But this is not a draconian DRM scheme in and of itself. +[3729.00 --> 3731.00] I'm not saying the game doesn't have DRM. +[3731.00 --> 3732.00] So just hold... +[3732.00 --> 3733.00] Just hold on. +[3733.00 --> 3735.00] I'm trying to bring up a different thing entirely. +[3735.00 --> 3737.00] The digging thumbnail is coming back. +[3737.00 --> 3738.00] Okay. +[3738.00 --> 3739.00] Okay. +[3739.00 --> 3740.00] It's coming back. +[3740.00 --> 3741.00] Okay. +[3741.00 --> 3742.00] For Ubisoft. +[3742.00 --> 3743.00] Alright. +[3743.00 --> 3747.00] The thing about little bugs like this is that they're realistic. +[3747.00 --> 3750.00] They accept that people are gonna pirate the game. +[3750.00 --> 3761.00] And what they do is instead of trying to stop them brute force, they create social pressure on pirates to shame them into not pirating the game. +[3761.00 --> 3774.00] And the thing about putting in a bug like this, especially one that appears later on in the game, is that you're not punishing the guys who really did download it, pirate it as a demo, and then buy it if they liked it to play it. +[3774.00 --> 3779.00] You are punishing the guys who didn't pay for it and are playing through it. +[3779.00 --> 3795.00] You're punishing the people who actually did enjoy it enough that they really want to keep playing it badly enough that they really want that FOV slider, and you are making them come out and say, I'm using this, I didn't pay for it, and I'm gonna go and be a customer about it. +[3795.00 --> 3797.00] I'm gonna actually lodge a complaint. +[3797.00 --> 3798.00] Post on forums. +[3798.00 --> 3799.00] Post on forums. +[3799.00 --> 3808.00] I'm gonna actually have this company spend money answering my question when I didn't even have the respect to pay for the game. +[3808.00 --> 3809.00] Right. +[3809.00 --> 3810.00] And I'm playing it. +[3810.00 --> 3811.00] Shrekt. +[3811.00 --> 3812.00] So, I like that. +[3812.00 --> 3815.00] Yeah, I think it's cool having that little easter egg stuff. +[3815.00 --> 3818.00] By the way, we just hit our wrap goal thing. +[3818.00 --> 3819.00] Oh lordy, where is that file? +[3819.00 --> 3825.00] So the release original Stormtroom wrap audio is, that goal has been made. +[3825.00 --> 3833.00] I have Taryn working on updating the Wansho SoundCloud account for an audio version of Wansho right now. +[3833.00 --> 3837.00] So I figure we can release that on that SoundCloud account. +[3837.00 --> 3839.00] So I'll, I'll tweet that out tonight. +[3839.00 --> 3840.00] I'm gonna see if I can, uh... +[3840.00 --> 3842.00] Is there a way to do like playlists on SoundCloud? +[3842.00 --> 3847.00] Cause I wouldn't necessarily want that wrap audio right in the middle, cause a lot of people would listen to it in the stream. +[3847.00 --> 3848.00] We'll release it on the forum. +[3848.00 --> 3849.00] Yeah, that'll be doable. +[3849.00 --> 3850.00] Why don't we release it on the forum? +[3850.00 --> 3851.00] Yeah, yeah. +[3851.00 --> 3854.00] Um, I'll see if I can find it right now. +[3854.00 --> 3856.00] Do you wanna, do you wanna cover the, the next Ubisoft? +[3856.00 --> 3857.00] Should I put the keep on digging? +[3857.00 --> 3860.00] Sure, I, oh, oh, this isn't necessarily something else. +[3860.00 --> 3862.00] I just wanted to talk about the, the, um... +[3862.00 --> 3863.00] Oh, sorry, this isn't... +[3863.00 --> 3864.00] DRM stuff. +[3864.00 --> 3865.00] Nevermind. +[3865.00 --> 3866.00] Okay, yeah, yeah. +[3866.00 --> 3867.00] Oh, oh, oh, okay, sorry. +[3867.00 --> 3868.00] Not a Ubisoft thing. +[3868.00 --> 3869.00] This is the Denuvo thing, right? +[3869.00 --> 3870.00] No, this is a Ubisoft thing. +[3870.00 --> 3871.00] Oh, something else. +[3871.00 --> 3874.00] Well, it's like, it's, it's like a pretty much, sure. +[3874.00 --> 3875.00] Should I put the dirt back? +[3875.00 --> 3876.00] Sure. +[3876.00 --> 3877.00] Um, okay. +[3877.00 --> 3879.00] It's like, pretty much everyone that uses DRM thing. +[3879.00 --> 3883.00] You are saying that to say that DRM doesn't stop some pirates is wrong. +[3883.00 --> 3884.00] That's false. +[3884.00 --> 3885.00] You're right. +[3885.00 --> 3890.00] But, you're not stopping the people that are just downloading the game, really. +[3890.00 --> 3895.00] Because there's gonna be one group of people that gets through and cracks it, and makes +[3895.00 --> 3899.00] it so that it's just an executable, and then releases it, so you'll stop a couple different +[3899.00 --> 3900.00] teams from getting it. +[3900.00 --> 3903.00] One will make through, and it won't make any difference. +[3903.00 --> 3907.00] Some games are still more complicated than just running an executable. +[3907.00 --> 3908.00] Not most anymore. +[3908.00 --> 3909.00] That's true. +[3909.00 --> 3910.00] But some are. +[3910.00 --> 3915.00] Especially multiplayer games are quite a bit more complicated in a lot of cases. +[3915.00 --> 3918.00] Well, yeah, but then a lot of times they ignore the multiplayer game stuff. +[3918.00 --> 3922.00] Like, I don't know how it works, but I'm assuming right now with Far Cry 4 you don't get access +[3922.00 --> 3924.00] to the multiplayer part if you pirate it. +[3924.00 --> 3925.00] I would assume that too. +[3925.00 --> 3927.00] You probably just get the single player part. +[3927.00 --> 3928.00] Um, yeah. +[3928.00 --> 3933.00] The only time I've heard of, like, cracked multiplayer stuff, you play on your own private +[3933.00 --> 3934.00] server. +[3934.00 --> 3935.00] Which is usually kinda lame. +[3935.00 --> 3938.00] I really didn't wanna release this stupid rap thing. +[3938.00 --> 3939.00] Rekt. +[3939.00 --> 3940.00] Uh, and you know what? +[3940.00 --> 3941.00] I actually can't. +[3941.00 --> 3944.00] I think there's gonna be other stretch goals that you really don't necessarily wanna do +[3944.00 --> 3945.00] as well, so. +[3945.00 --> 3946.00] Yeah, I think there's. +[3946.00 --> 3948.00] I think you'll just have to get used to that one. +[3948.00 --> 3952.00] I think there's gonna be, I'm, it's pretty embarrassing. +[3952.00 --> 3953.00] Um. +[3953.00 --> 3954.00] Rekt. +[3954.00 --> 3957.00] The reason why I didn't want it to be in that Wancho SoundCloud is, cause you're listening +[3957.00 --> 3961.00] to Wancho and then all of a sudden it's like, do you know bleep about swag? +[3961.00 --> 3962.00] Yeah. +[3962.00 --> 3964.00] Blah blah blah, terrible rap song. +[3964.00 --> 3965.00] It's pretty terrible. +[3965.00 --> 3969.00] I really, I really didn't want, cause the filter was what I kinda. +[3969.00 --> 3970.00] You guys are taking away his auto tune. +[3970.00 --> 3975.00] What was what kind of made it okay for me, but now it's just pretty embarrassing. +[3975.00 --> 3979.00] So I'm, I'm throwing, I'm emailing myself the, uh, the wave sound right now. +[3979.00 --> 3983.00] And then I'll, I'll see if, uh, maybe we'll, we'll play it on after party. +[3983.00 --> 3986.00] Yeah, let's, let's play it on after party when we're doing the, uh, the Q and A and then +[3986.00 --> 3990.00] we'll make it available for download on the forum if you guys really want it. +[3990.00 --> 3991.00] All right. +[3991.00 --> 3992.00] All right. +[3992.00 --> 3996.00] Let's move into our next DRM topic, not related to Ubisoft. +[3996.00 --> 3999.00] So the keep on digging, uh, lower third can go away. +[3999.00 --> 4002.00] This was originally posted by someone on the forum. +[4002.00 --> 4004.00] My browser is just, where are we looking? +[4004.00 --> 4005.00] What is it? +[4005.00 --> 4006.00] It's further down. +[4010.00 --> 4011.00] There we go. +[4011.00 --> 4014.00] So DeNuvo DRM degrades SSDs. +[4014.00 --> 4020.00] This is posted by Ah Ming on the forum and it's from gamemag.ru.ru. +[4020.00 --> 4021.00] Um. +[4021.00 --> 4027.00] So games like Lord of the Fallen, FIFA 15, and unfortunately Dragon Age Inquisition, um, are +[4027.00 --> 4028.00] affected by this. +[4028.00 --> 4029.00] It's EA time again. +[4029.00 --> 4030.00] Yeah. +[4030.00 --> 4031.00] It is EA time again. +[4031.00 --> 4036.00] EA bought a jelly time, EA bought a jelly time, EA bought a jelly time, way yeah, way yeah, +[4036.00 --> 4037.00] way yeah. +[4037.00 --> 4038.00] That's so old. +[4038.00 --> 4039.00] That is really old. +[4039.00 --> 4040.00] Go ahead. +[4040.00 --> 4041.00] Um. +[4041.00 --> 4045.00] And what's weird is I think that was probably more popular than the Badger Badger song. +[4045.00 --> 4050.00] But I hear people reiterating Badger Badger more than that. +[4050.00 --> 4051.00] Those early internet days. +[4051.00 --> 4053.00] Like it wasn't as good of a song. +[4053.00 --> 4054.00] No. +[4054.00 --> 4055.00] Badger Badger Badger Badger. +[4055.00 --> 4056.00] It's a lot more catchy. +[4056.00 --> 4057.00] Yeah. +[4057.00 --> 4058.00] Anyway. +[4058.00 --> 4061.00] It's not like it's gonna instantly kill your SSD. +[4061.00 --> 4068.00] But, users are reporting significant increases in the rights on their SSDs while running these +[4068.00 --> 4069.00] games. +[4069.00 --> 4073.00] And it is being attributed to the Denuvo DRM scheme. +[4073.00 --> 4078.00] Up to around 30 gigabytes of data every 40 minutes in very small bits of code. +[4078.00 --> 4079.00] That's insane. +[4079.00 --> 4086.00] Now, to be clear, SSDs are not as fragile as they used to be and as a lot of people seem +[4086.00 --> 4087.00] to think they are. +[4087.00 --> 4091.00] In fact, Tech Report has an excellent ongoing article. +[4091.00 --> 4093.00] I would like to find it to link it to you guys right now. +[4093.00 --> 4095.00] But, Chrome completely crashed. +[4095.00 --> 4099.00] The greatness of the Stormtrooper wrap crashed Chrome. +[4099.00 --> 4101.00] So, um. +[4101.00 --> 4104.00] So, I would love to link that to you guys. +[4104.00 --> 4108.00] But, basically they've taken, I think it was about a half a dozen consumer grade SSDs. +[4108.00 --> 4113.00] And just put them on a bench where they're being written to constantly and then monitored. +[4113.00 --> 4116.00] So, every once in a while they take them off the bench and see if they're still working. +[4116.00 --> 4120.00] And they all go way past their rated write speeds. +[4120.00 --> 4124.00] Which is already way more than most people are going to write to it. +[4124.00 --> 4126.00] But, 30 gigs per 40 minutes. +[4126.00 --> 4132.00] We can extrapolate that to 45 gigs per hour for a game that you could potentially log a hundred hours on. +[4132.00 --> 4133.00] A hundred hours on. +[4133.00 --> 4135.00] A game like Dragon Age Inquisition. +[4135.00 --> 4138.00] I logged a hundred hours easy on Origin. +[4138.00 --> 4139.00] Yeah. +[4139.00 --> 4140.00] I don't know if it's going to be- +[4140.00 --> 4141.00] Origins. +[4141.00 --> 4142.00] I hate Origin. +[4142.00 --> 4143.00] Love Origins. +[4143.00 --> 4145.00] I don't know if it's going to be quite as big of a game. +[4145.00 --> 4147.00] But it'll still be a very expansive. +[4147.00 --> 4149.00] Like, it's going to take a while. +[4149.00 --> 4150.00] For sure. +[4150.00 --> 4151.00] Yeah. +[4151.00 --> 4152.00] Um. +[4152.00 --> 4161.00] But, that is still a completely unnecessary thing to do that damages the computer hardware that the game is installed on. +[4161.00 --> 4162.00] And I do not approve of that whatsoever. +[4162.00 --> 4163.00] Yeah. +[4163.00 --> 4164.00] That's no fun. +[4164.00 --> 4165.00] Alright. +[4165.00 --> 4166.00] What else we got here? +[4166.00 --> 4168.00] We got lots of great topics still this week. +[4168.00 --> 4170.00] There's the wow thing. +[4170.00 --> 4171.00] There's the counter strike thing. +[4171.00 --> 4173.00] Oh, let's do the counter strike thing. +[4173.00 --> 4174.00] Okay. +[4174.00 --> 4175.00] How much do you know about this? +[4175.00 --> 4178.00] Because this is very much an in development story right now. +[4178.00 --> 4179.00] Yeah. +[4179.00 --> 4182.00] So you guys will have to forgive us if we're a little bit behind the eight ball or- +[4182.00 --> 4189.00] Forgive us if we're a little bit behind and take everything with a grain of salt because a lot of this right now is kind of speculation. +[4189.00 --> 4190.00] Speculation. +[4190.00 --> 4193.00] It's speculation that's happening now. +[4193.00 --> 4194.00] Yeah. +[4194.00 --> 4197.00] There's definitely some weight behind the speculation. +[4197.00 --> 4198.00] Yeah. +[4198.00 --> 4199.00] Um. +[4199.00 --> 4200.00] But it's still a lot of speculation. +[4200.00 --> 4208.00] Now things that aren't speculation is that two players from top 20 global pro teams have been VAC banned. +[4208.00 --> 4213.00] And I believe two teams have been dropped out of the Winter Dreamhack tournament. +[4213.00 --> 4214.00] Yeah. +[4214.00 --> 4217.00] So we're talking a quarter million dollar prize. +[4217.00 --> 4222.00] And they have been disqualified for players on their teams. +[4222.00 --> 4227.00] And their teams have kicked those two players out of their respective teams at this point in time. +[4227.00 --> 4228.00] Um. +[4228.00 --> 4230.00] So they're not trying to back them up or fight it. +[4230.00 --> 4231.00] They got kicked out. +[4231.00 --> 4232.00] Yeah. +[4232.00 --> 4235.00] Both players admitted to using, uh, to using an exploit. +[4235.00 --> 4239.00] I'm going to call it an exploit as opposed to, uh, let's just call it a cheat, I guess. +[4239.00 --> 4240.00] Yeah. +[4240.00 --> 4241.00] Yeah. +[4241.00 --> 4242.00] Yeah. +[4242.00 --> 4245.00] I mean, the way the cheat was executed is you could call an exploit. +[4245.00 --> 4246.00] Uh, theoretically. +[4246.00 --> 4247.00] Theoretically. +[4247.00 --> 4248.00] This is speculation. +[4248.00 --> 4249.00] This is all speculative. +[4249.00 --> 4252.00] But again, it makes a ton of sense on a lot of people. +[4252.00 --> 4256.00] This has been going around like through the grapevine for a while now that this might have been happening. +[4256.00 --> 4262.00] So the fact that this is now going on validates that a little bit. +[4262.00 --> 4270.00] But the idea is that they were getting this, uh, hack or cheat or whatever, exploit, whatever you want to call it, through the, uh, what is it called? +[4270.00 --> 4271.00] The Steam Workshop. +[4271.00 --> 4272.00] The Steam Workshop. +[4272.00 --> 4279.00] So even if you were at a quote unquote LAN event, which is just where the other team you're playing against is also there and your team is there. +[4279.00 --> 4281.00] You're not just on LAN. +[4281.00 --> 4283.00] You usually have an internet connection because they're usually streamed. +[4283.00 --> 4292.00] Um, even at a LAN event where you're not using your own computer, they would sign into their own accounts because they want to show if there's skins and stuff because it's CSGO. +[4292.00 --> 4299.00] Um, and then the Steam Workshop would automatically download it onto that computer. +[4299.00 --> 4302.00] So you wouldn't see them like installing anything fishy. +[4302.00 --> 4304.00] It would just happen automatically in the background. +[4304.00 --> 4311.00] Um, and the way it allegedly works, it could be, it could be done very, very subtly. +[4311.00 --> 4324.00] So, uh, for example, one of the ones I was talking to Ed about earlier today was a wall hack that all it would do was change the color of one pixel when there is an opposing character on the other side of a surface. +[4324.00 --> 4337.00] Even someone looking over your shoulder might kind of go, well, and then, and then move on because if they weren't aware of, if they weren't aware to look for something like that, then how could they possibly know? +[4337.00 --> 4341.00] Or even stuff like, um, audio cues. +[4341.00 --> 4344.00] Like, it could ping an audio cue if you're pointing at someone through a wall. +[4344.00 --> 4348.00] So if you do a sweep across a wall, it could ping at you if there's an, if there's something there. +[4348.00 --> 4349.00] A lot of the guys wear earbuds. +[4349.00 --> 4357.00] Yep, there was, uh, allegedly, rumoredly, speculatedly, a panic button, uh, one button sort of toggled aim assist. +[4357.00 --> 4363.00] All of this is unconfirmed by any legitimate source and is based on code of the hack briefly posted to Reddit. +[4363.00 --> 4377.00] Um, there's speculation that there was, so button toggled vision assist, audio cue'd vision assist, and then button toggled aim assist were all allegedly within this steam workshop allegedly downloaded, uh, hacks. +[4377.00 --> 4379.00] So, all of this is maybes. +[4379.00 --> 4396.00] Both, okay, what's not maybes is both of the players that were banned, so Kali, uh, spelled K-Q-L-Y, from Titan, and SF from Epsilon, so these guys are from globally 9th ranked teams and 19th ranked teams overall, have admitted to using them. +[4396.00 --> 4403.00] So, Kali released a statement apologizing for the behavior and assuring everyone that the cheating did not occur in a competitive setting. +[4403.00 --> 4408.00] And then Epsilon, uh, I think, alleged, uh, admitted to using it once. +[4408.00 --> 4415.00] And also not in a competitive setting, although that looks like it's been pulled out of the dock since I was reading it before the show, so that might- +[4415.00 --> 4416.00] So who knows. +[4416.00 --> 4422.00] Everything is very much in flux right now, but the big discussion here is, what do we compare this to? +[4422.00 --> 4423.00] I mean, what does- +[4423.00 --> 4425.00] No, neither cheats were used in a competitive setting, it just dropped down. +[4425.00 --> 4432.00] Okay, so what does it, what does it, what does it mean for, for CSGO's credibility as an esport? +[4432.00 --> 4433.00] It's rough. +[4433.00 --> 4434.00] That this made it through. +[4434.00 --> 4451.00] I know Nick has been talking about, like, um, Hellfire, essentially, like if this, if this gets proven, and if like certain members, not necessarily these two, but certain very prominent members, and he has very good reasoning for all of this, if they get brought out, because there's, there's a list that the original guy that got banned posted. +[4451.00 --> 4463.00] Yep, trying to take a bunch of other guys down with him, where he said, I think, what, was he 95, he said he was 95% sure, and produced a list of other high level pro players that he thought were cheating using the same hack. +[4463.00 --> 4473.00] Yeah, so certain members on there, specifically the fanatic guys, two of the fanatic guys, if, if they got called out for actually doing this, and they got vac banned, it could cause some serious rifts. +[4473.00 --> 4477.00] I mean, pro cycling has not recovered from doping. +[4477.00 --> 4478.00] Yes, yeah. +[4478.00 --> 4482.00] Major League Baseball is a joke, because of steroids. +[4482.00 --> 4483.00] Yeah. +[4483.00 --> 4486.00] Shooters have always been a huge problem. +[4486.00 --> 4490.00] Even on console, there's hardware hacks you can do to controllers. +[4490.00 --> 4493.00] Try not allowing people to bring their controllers to events. +[4493.00 --> 4495.00] No, they want to use their scuff, they want to use their whatever. +[4495.00 --> 4500.00] There's approved controllers for events, and you can bring your own, and you can hardware hack it. +[4500.00 --> 4509.00] You take the thing apart, add in a little bit of, the last one I saw was a PCB that you added in, which made it so that you could just hold the trigger down, +[4509.00 --> 4514.00] and it would shoot a semi-automatic weapon as fast as it possibly could, while keeping it fairly accurate. +[4514.00 --> 4515.00] Right. +[4515.00 --> 4517.00] You just hold the trigger down, and it does it properly for you. +[4517.00 --> 4518.00] That's cheating. +[4518.00 --> 4520.00] Super cheating. +[4520.00 --> 4522.00] And that's something you can do on a console. +[4522.00 --> 4526.00] So there's, there's cheating, and shooters cheating is huge, and it's super frustrating. +[4526.00 --> 4531.00] It's really annoying as a player, just playing randomly, because it happens a lot in lobbies. +[4531.00 --> 4532.00] I know. +[4532.00 --> 4533.00] Yeah. +[4533.00 --> 4537.00] I mean, imagine, if this is happening professionally, where people are actually looking over the shoulder of the person, +[4537.00 --> 4544.00] what's going on with people in their bedrooms playing the game, where mom doesn't care if they're cheating at CSGO. +[4544.00 --> 4549.00] And think about the amount of people that are cheating that you're not catching, because they're being very subtle about it. +[4549.00 --> 4550.00] Yeah. +[4550.00 --> 4557.00] Compared to that dude that's like flying around the map, insta-killing everyone, which happened the first day I tried to play COD, which was hilarious. +[4557.00 --> 4565.00] His name was like 420BlazeAtYOLO, and he killed everyone on the map instantly and was just flying around. +[4565.00 --> 4567.00] I was like, wow! +[4567.00 --> 4570.00] You are everything that's wrong with this game. +[4572.00 --> 4573.00] It was fantastic. +[4573.00 --> 4574.00] It happened on stream. +[4574.00 --> 4576.00] Anyways, like, it's, it's bad. +[4576.00 --> 4582.00] I don't know it's gonna, I don't know if it's necessarily gonna be the hellfire that a lot of people have been talking about, +[4582.00 --> 4586.00] where it's just gonna destroy the entire sport, because it is actually really old. +[4586.00 --> 4592.00] People have been playing CSGO for a really long, or it's Counter-Strike competitively for a really long time, not necessarily CSGO. +[4592.00 --> 4594.00] I know, Valve seems to think it's a big deal. +[4594.00 --> 4595.00] They're flying in- +[4595.00 --> 4596.00] Valve's cracking down like crazy. +[4596.00 --> 4602.00] They're flying in four teams to replace the two teams that were disqualified from Dreamhack to do a, like, a local pre-qualifier. +[4602.00 --> 4605.00] Which is sick. That's super cool. I'm happy they're doing that. +[4605.00 --> 4607.00] Um, I'm not saying it's- +[4607.00 --> 4609.00] Well, they have no choice. They have to salvage their tournament. +[4609.00 --> 4610.00] Yeah, no, that's true. +[4610.00 --> 4615.00] I'm not saying it's not gonna be a big deal. I just don't think it's necessarily gonna destroy the entire thing. +[4615.00 --> 4622.00] Um, I think it could seriously, uh, hamper the massive growth that they've had over the last little while. +[4622.00 --> 4626.00] And it could seriously plateau them for a long time, or make it go down a little bit. +[4626.00 --> 4632.00] The thing about games that has to grow up is, is both sides. +[4632.00 --> 4636.00] The fans are already growing up in the sense that they're treating it more seriously. +[4636.00 --> 4637.00] Like, I- +[4637.00 --> 4638.00] Oh yeah, definitely. +[4638.00 --> 4643.00] Okay, the thing about this is, they were talking about this on, um, that sports radio station that I listen to all the time. +[4643.00 --> 4647.00] They were talking about it, um, when they got acquired by TSN. +[4647.00 --> 4655.00] And some of those guys were ex-TSN guys from back when TSN started, and were now being brought back into the TSN fold. +[4655.00 --> 4664.00] So they were kind of reminiscing about how 30 years ago everyone told them they were idiots for thinking that you could have an entire channel dedicated just to sports. +[4664.00 --> 4666.00] That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. +[4666.00 --> 4668.00] And then, they're like, yeah, look at it now. +[4668.00 --> 4669.00] Yeah. +[4669.00 --> 4673.00] TSN 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, Ruby, Platinum, Emeralds. +[4673.00 --> 4674.00] Yeah. +[4674.00 --> 4686.00] Like, so, so, but the thing about, the thing about sports, and eSports do get qualified as sports in this way, I guess. +[4686.00 --> 4689.00] Okay, they're not sports, they're eSports, but they get treated the same way this way. +[4689.00 --> 4691.00] Is that the fans are very passionate. +[4691.00 --> 4692.00] Yep. +[4692.00 --> 4693.00] And they take it very seriously. +[4693.00 --> 4694.00] Oh yeah. +[4694.00 --> 4697.00] And that's what eSports is finally gaining. +[4697.00 --> 4698.00] They're being taken seriously. +[4698.00 --> 4700.00] They're not a joke anymore. +[4700.00 --> 4701.00] So... +[4701.00 --> 4703.00] You're gonna lose that reputation if people start hacking. +[4703.00 --> 4717.00] Turning it into a joke, and not having the players and the organizations treating it as seriously as the fans are, is gonna create a rift between the fans and the players and the organizers. +[4717.00 --> 4719.00] And that is really hard to fix. +[4719.00 --> 4729.00] And when you have this momentum right now, I think if this goes as deep as the allegations would suggest that they could, +[4729.00 --> 4732.00] I think it could affect not just CSGO, but eSports in general. +[4732.00 --> 4733.00] It could. +[4733.00 --> 4738.00] Because you, because you look at the general complaints that people might have about an eSport. +[4738.00 --> 4740.00] Oh, well, it's just software. +[4740.00 --> 4743.00] So how easy is it to cheat? +[4743.00 --> 4747.00] How easy is it to pretend that these guys playing are really that superhuman? +[4747.00 --> 4748.00] Yeah. +[4748.00 --> 4749.00] Apparently this easy. +[4749.00 --> 4752.00] How are we gonna take this seriously anymore? +[4752.00 --> 4758.00] At least with a physical sport, yes, there's blood doping, there's steroids, there's this, there's that. +[4758.00 --> 4760.00] We can catch a lot of it. +[4760.00 --> 4763.00] And they are actually doing it on some level. +[4763.00 --> 4772.00] There's no cybernetic implant that, you know, tells the goalie where to be, so when the puck's gonna be there and whatever, and they just can be there already. +[4772.00 --> 4773.00] Yeah. +[4773.00 --> 4782.00] That's the difference between electronic cheating and physical cheating, is it can happen in ways that the viewer doesn't even understand is happening. +[4782.00 --> 4789.00] And all the respect that they might have had for a player, or a skill, or a tactic, I mean, it's just gone. +[4789.00 --> 4790.00] How deflating is that? +[4790.00 --> 4797.00] This is actually a big part of the reason why some of the viewers I know are gonna be like, what, when I bring this up. +[4797.00 --> 4805.00] But I've, well, a long time ago I played Counter-Strike at a fairly high level, but I've never really been interested in watching Counter-Strike. +[4805.00 --> 4814.00] Um, and playing on public servers has always been kinda rough, because every single time that someone does something amazing, you're like, hmm. +[4814.00 --> 4816.00] They're probably cheating. +[4816.00 --> 4817.00] They're probably cheating. +[4817.00 --> 4819.00] Or that was the luckiest thing ever. +[4819.00 --> 4823.00] And that's actually one of the reasons I'm gonna go on like an old Counter-Strike kinda binge here, if you don't mind. +[4823.00 --> 4826.00] How old are we talking, like, 1.6? +[4826.00 --> 4827.00] Okay, that's not that old. +[4827.00 --> 4828.00] Um, that's okay. +[4828.00 --> 4829.00] 1.6, 1.5, like... +[4829.00 --> 4830.00] Really, you're gonna go back to 1.5? +[4830.00 --> 4832.00] Well, old stuff. +[4832.00 --> 4842.00] Um, if you were running and or jumping or doing something crazy with an AWP, there was like the really weird, really low percentage chance that you could shoot yourself. +[4842.00 --> 4844.00] If you tried to shoot while you're doing that. +[4844.00 --> 4849.00] If you like jumped off of something and took a shot, it was a very low percentage chance, but you could damage yourself. +[4849.00 --> 4852.00] So like, no one really did it. +[4852.00 --> 4860.00] Now, some guy will jump off a ledge and like aim up here with a pistol and get a headshot over there, and be like, oh yeah, no man, no, no, it's just randomly shot over there. +[4860.00 --> 4861.00] It's like, no. +[4861.00 --> 4868.00] One of the videos that they have of one of the guys that got banned, he shot way far away from someone and got a headshot, and people were dismissing it. +[4868.00 --> 4871.00] Like, oh no, it's probably just like bullet stray because he was jumping. +[4871.00 --> 4873.00] It's like, no, he was hacking then. +[4873.00 --> 4874.00] Brutal. +[4874.00 --> 4875.00] Come on. +[4875.00 --> 4877.00] Ugh, I don't know. +[4877.00 --> 4879.00] So there you go. +[4879.00 --> 4880.00] I don't know. +[4880.00 --> 4881.00] Brutal. +[4881.00 --> 4884.00] We can do a few, let's do a few rapid fire topics. +[4884.00 --> 4886.00] Oh, this isn't really rapid fire. +[4886.00 --> 4887.00] Oh, we gotta talk about this. +[4887.00 --> 4890.00] BitTorrent opens Paygate Premium Bundles. +[4890.00 --> 4894.00] The original articles on TechCrunch.com was posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[4894.00 --> 4896.00] This is freaking cool. +[4896.00 --> 4904.00] I mean, I don't think it's gonna turn BitTorrent into, you know, a legitimate content distribution network overnight. +[4904.00 --> 4910.00] But, they're giving 90% of the funds to the content creator. +[4910.00 --> 4916.00] And when we compare that to other services that exist, like if you were to say publish your song behind a paywall, +[4916.00 --> 4919.00] so that means people, that just means people have to pay for the content, okay? +[4919.00 --> 4925.00] So behind a paywall on iTunes, Apple's taking what, 40 cents on the dollar? +[4925.00 --> 4926.00] Something along those lines? +[4926.00 --> 4927.00] Yeah. +[4927.00 --> 4931.00] So this is fantastic for new artists using BitTorrent as a distribution platform. +[4931.00 --> 4937.00] So peer-to-peer, not BitTorrent like YAR, BitTorrent like peer-to-peer connections. +[4937.00 --> 4940.00] And getting 90% of the money for yourself? +[4940.00 --> 4941.00] That's fantastic. +[4941.00 --> 4943.00] That's actually pretty freaking awesome. +[4943.00 --> 4945.00] I guess that's all there really is to say about it. +[4945.00 --> 4947.00] Yeah, there's not a ton to really add. +[4947.00 --> 4950.00] But I think it's awesome and I do really hope people start using it. +[4950.00 --> 4953.00] I expect kind of smaller groups to start using it. +[4953.00 --> 4960.00] And hopefully, those like one or two really big bands to just jump onto it, because that will popularize it. +[4960.00 --> 4963.00] And then it can grow from there, because hopefully this becomes a big thing. +[4963.00 --> 4969.00] So, you can, and the publisher has a lot of flexibility, and I'd imagine they're gonna continue to tweak it over time. +[4969.00 --> 4971.00] But you can have some content for free. +[4971.00 --> 4974.00] There can be some behind a paywall. +[4974.00 --> 4979.00] You can have content move to paywall after a certain number of visits, for example. +[4979.00 --> 4981.00] That's cool. +[4981.00 --> 4987.00] Also, unlike iTunes, you can potentially have access to your customer information. +[4987.00 --> 4991.00] That's one of the big problems that I have with platforms like iTunes and like YouTube. +[4991.00 --> 4997.00] Or even Twitch to a much lesser extent than, actually no, Twitch is pretty much the same. +[4997.00 --> 5000.00] Yeah, is you guys, I don't know who you are. +[5000.00 --> 5001.00] Yeah. +[5001.00 --> 5003.00] I have no way to communicate with you. +[5003.00 --> 5004.00] Uh, that's not true with Twitch. +[5004.00 --> 5005.00] Okay. +[5005.00 --> 5006.00] Yes. +[5006.00 --> 5007.00] You have a list of all your subscribers. +[5007.00 --> 5008.00] YouTube used to have that. +[5008.00 --> 5009.00] YouTube took it away. +[5009.00 --> 5010.00] Yeah. +[5010.00 --> 5011.00] So I didn't realize Twitch still had it. +[5011.00 --> 5012.00] Okay. +[5012.00 --> 5013.00] I don't know if you, okay. +[5013.00 --> 5014.00] I don't know how easily you can contact them. +[5014.00 --> 5015.00] You have a list of all your subs. +[5015.00 --> 5018.00] I don't know if you have a list of all your followers. +[5018.00 --> 5019.00] I, oh. +[5019.00 --> 5020.00] That's very different. +[5020.00 --> 5021.00] Subs are paying. +[5021.00 --> 5022.00] Right. +[5022.00 --> 5023.00] Okay. +[5023.00 --> 5024.00] Okay. +[5024.00 --> 5027.00] So, YouTube used to give you an entire list of your subscribers. +[5027.00 --> 5031.00] And even though you couldn't send a mass email to them and say, hey, I'm moving over to Vimeo. +[5031.00 --> 5033.00] Can you please make sure to subscribe to me over there? +[5033.00 --> 5036.00] Because that would facilitate moving off of the platform, right? +[5036.00 --> 5040.00] Um, but what you could do is you could message them one by one. +[5040.00 --> 5045.00] And in the even earlier days, uh, you could even see the list of subscribers for someone else's YouTube channel. +[5045.00 --> 5046.00] Yeah. +[5046.00 --> 5053.00] So, some douche canoe, um, who was a competing tech YouTuber at the time, actually went through my entire sublist. +[5053.00 --> 5054.00] Really? +[5054.00 --> 5055.00] And messaged every single one of them. +[5055.00 --> 5056.00] I got so many complaints about it. +[5056.00 --> 5057.00] Blah, blah, blah. +[5057.00 --> 5058.00] Do you know what this guy's doing? +[5058.00 --> 5059.00] I was like, no. +[5059.00 --> 5060.00] Oh my God. +[5060.00 --> 5061.00] Yeah. +[5061.00 --> 5062.00] Go figure, eh? +[5062.00 --> 5063.00] That's brutal. +[5063.00 --> 5065.00] Um, so I understand reasons why this information isn't exposed. +[5065.00 --> 5070.00] And I know that Google has improved that recently through Google Plus. +[5070.00 --> 5074.00] Where you can access some of your most engaged viewers and all that. +[5074.00 --> 5080.00] But that's the problem with these distribution networks is they lock you in like this. +[5080.00 --> 5095.00] Whereas if you own the relationship with your audience, then you can move wherever is best for you and or best for them as opposed to being stuck where someone just wants to take a big cut of the money for something they didn't even create. +[5095.00 --> 5096.00] And aren't even gonna watch. +[5096.00 --> 5097.00] Yeah. +[5097.00 --> 5098.00] Yeah. +[5098.00 --> 5099.00] That's kinda ridiculous. +[5099.00 --> 5100.00] That's pretty much it. +[5100.00 --> 5103.00] Someone in the chat, sorry I was trying to watch the chat for someone to correct me. +[5103.00 --> 5105.00] Apparently, uh, you do have a followers list. +[5105.00 --> 5106.00] Okay, there you go. +[5106.00 --> 5108.00] So you have a sublist and a followers list. +[5108.00 --> 5110.00] Apparently douche canoe is not a thing? +[5110.00 --> 5111.00] I've heard that. +[5111.00 --> 5112.00] Really? +[5112.00 --> 5113.00] Was it me? +[5113.00 --> 5114.00] Maybe. +[5114.00 --> 5115.00] That's possible. +[5115.00 --> 5118.00] I remember it was a big thing. +[5118.00 --> 5125.00] My group of friends got called douche carts one year at PAX and we were like, wow, that's amazing. +[5125.00 --> 5127.00] And we kind of adopted that for a little while. +[5127.00 --> 5128.00] There are so many great topics left. +[5128.00 --> 5129.00] We have to go really fast. +[5129.00 --> 5130.00] Keystone Cat posted this. +[5130.00 --> 5132.00] This is from MumbaiMirror.com. +[5132.00 --> 5136.00] Electronics printed with a t-shirt printer. +[5136.00 --> 5138.00] Holy actual crap. +[5138.00 --> 5145.00] This combined with 3D printing would literally mean printing your own consumer electronics. +[5145.00 --> 5147.00] Very simple ones. +[5147.00 --> 5148.00] Yeah. +[5148.00 --> 5151.00] I mean, we're talking like, what were they saying they printed? +[5151.00 --> 5155.00] Like a four bit, um, hold on. +[5155.00 --> 5156.00] Doesn't show. +[5156.00 --> 5157.00] Yeah, it's not in the notes. +[5157.00 --> 5160.00] It's in the article, but super, super simple stuff. +[5160.00 --> 5165.00] But the electronic circuits are printed using unique materials, environmentally friendly methods, +[5165.00 --> 5170.00] and the way, on top of everyday flexible materials such as plastic, aluminum foil, and even paper. +[5170.00 --> 5180.00] Resistors, transistors, and capacitors, the key components of a complex electric circuit are printed using non-toxic organic materials like silver nanoparticles, carbon, and plastics. +[5180.00 --> 5183.00] So a new startup company is being established to commercialize the invention, +[5183.00 --> 5190.00] and a multinational biomedical company has also expressed interest in adopting the application of printed electronics for biomedical devices. +[5190.00 --> 5191.00] Wow. +[5191.00 --> 5192.00] Super cool. +[5192.00 --> 5193.00] What a big deal. +[5193.00 --> 5195.00] You just talked really fast. +[5195.00 --> 5196.00] Sorry. +[5196.00 --> 5197.00] You got it though. +[5197.00 --> 5198.00] Thank you. +[5198.00 --> 5199.00] That was a good job. +[5199.00 --> 5200.00] Um, so that's cool. +[5200.00 --> 5204.00] Oh, Nvidia's multi-frame anti-aliasing has finally been tested. +[5204.00 --> 5212.00] So our good buddy Ryan Shrout over at PC Perspective has taken a pretty, I'm not going to call it in-depth, Ryan, but I'll call it- +[5212.00 --> 5213.00] Oh, Rex. +[5213.00 --> 5217.00] I'll call it a pretty, a pretty adequate look at MFAA. +[5217.00 --> 5224.00] Now the problem with the way most people are going to try and look at MFAA is they're going to try and take a screenshot or a FRAPS recording. +[5224.00 --> 5225.00] That won't work. +[5225.00 --> 5236.00] Because the way screenshots and FRAPS recordings work is they take an image of the frame that is being presented at an earlier stage than the actual display output. +[5236.00 --> 5251.00] Now the way MFAA works is it actually blends the anti-aliasing that it's applying in one matrix on the previous frame and in another matrix on the next frame together on the frame that the viewer sees. +[5251.00 --> 5252.00] Okay. +[5252.00 --> 5269.00] So it, it, it does 2x MSAA effectively in two different ways and then present it to the viewer as 4x MSAA, but they're calling it MFAA because it's not quite the same thing because it's using this blending technique. +[5269.00 --> 5271.00] So in stills, okay, right. +[5271.00 --> 5281.00] So the way you have to capture it is by actually capturing the display output using a capture card, something that PCPer already does for all of their graphics card benchmarks. +[5281.00 --> 5291.00] Anyway, so they went ahead and did some captures and you guys should definitely check out the article where you can have a much better look at what they look like than this, you know, compressed video view here. +[5291.00 --> 5297.00] But it looks pretty darn good in relatively non complex scenarios. +[5297.00 --> 5307.00] It looks a lot closer to MF to 4x MSAA than to 2x MSAA and the performance hit is not as much as 4x MSAA. +[5307.00 --> 5309.00] In more complex scenes. +[5309.00 --> 5313.00] So there was one from, I think, crisis three that Ryan was looking at. +[5313.00 --> 5320.00] It didn't look as good as 4x MSAA but still better than 2x and the performance hit is less. +[5320.00 --> 5323.00] So Nvidia's technology looks like a winner. +[5323.00 --> 5328.00] Except right now it's only compatible with 20 games. +[5328.00 --> 5334.00] Now, so it's a white listed game support as opposed to black listing the ones that don't work. +[5334.00 --> 5338.00] So it looks like Nvidia is going through and specifically validating games. +[5338.00 --> 5344.00] Once they add it to GeForce Experience so it turns on and off automatically, I guess this is less of a concern. +[5344.00 --> 5350.00] But right now it just doesn't give you any warning whatsoever if you launch a game and it says, +[5350.00 --> 5353.00] it doesn't come up and say, hey, by the way, your MFAA isn't working. +[5353.00 --> 5354.00] There's going to be more of a performance hit. +[5354.00 --> 5356.00] You might want to tweak your settings. +[5356.00 --> 5362.00] So it just happens in the background on white listed games and we have no idea what support's going to look like moving forward. +[5362.00 --> 5364.00] There is no SLI support yet. +[5364.00 --> 5366.00] So only single card support. +[5366.00 --> 5369.00] But it's working for now. +[5369.00 --> 5371.00] For now. +[5371.00 --> 5373.00] In certain things. +[5373.00 --> 5380.00] Intel revealed it will offer SSDs based on 3D NAND. +[5380.00 --> 5382.00] This was posted by QWERTY Warrior on the forum. +[5382.00 --> 5384.00] The original article is from Tech Report. +[5384.00 --> 5385.00] Look at that. +[5385.00 --> 5387.00] We're posting all the articles from our buddies in the last couple minutes here. +[5387.00 --> 5389.00] We got Scott from Tech Report. +[5389.00 --> 5390.00] Ryan from PC. +[5390.00 --> 5392.00] Well, mind you, Ryan's not my buddy. +[5392.00 --> 5393.00] I kind of hate that guy. +[5393.00 --> 5394.00] Whoa. +[5394.00 --> 5395.00] Even more shots fired. +[5395.00 --> 5396.00] Yeah. +[5396.00 --> 5397.00] I'm just kidding, Ryan, if you're watching this. +[5397.00 --> 5398.00] I know you're not. +[5398.00 --> 5401.00] You don't watch cool programming like Wancho. +[5402.00 --> 5405.00] Too busy watching the PC per podcast. +[5405.00 --> 5406.00] Oh. +[5406.00 --> 5407.00] Too many P's in that. +[5407.00 --> 5408.00] That's why it will never succeed. +[5408.00 --> 5410.00] Well, triple rect, I guess. +[5410.00 --> 5411.00] All right. +[5411.00 --> 5412.00] So Intel 3D NAND. +[5412.00 --> 5416.00] Intel revealed it will offer SSDs in the second half of next year based on 3D NAND. +[5416.00 --> 5419.00] It is a result of Intel's joint flash venture with Micron. +[5419.00 --> 5427.00] It stacks 32 planar levels to deliver 256 gigabits, so 32 gigabytes of storage in a single MLC die. +[5427.00 --> 5439.00] And the 3D NAND can also be packed with 3 bits per cell to hit up to 384 gigabit or 48 gigabytes per die. +[5439.00 --> 5444.00] The 3D NAND will enable 10 gig SSDs within the next couple of years. +[5444.00 --> 5445.00] Uh, 10 terabyte. +[5445.00 --> 5446.00] I'm sorry? +[5446.00 --> 5447.00] 10 terabyte. +[5447.00 --> 5448.00] Yeah, that's what I meant to say. +[5448.00 --> 5449.00] Thank you. +[5449.00 --> 5450.00] 10 terabyte SSD. +[5450.00 --> 5452.00] Yeah, 10 gig SSDs would be less impressive. +[5452.00 --> 5456.00] I, again, like I said, I was working before the show, so I didn't get to see a lot of the docs. +[5456.00 --> 5459.00] So when you first said this, I was like, yeah, not surprising. +[5459.00 --> 5462.00] But it's cool to be able to see some, like, the specs and the time frame. +[5462.00 --> 5465.00] I don't think costs are gonna, you know, plummet immediately. +[5465.00 --> 5468.00] You know, you look at Samsung, they've got 3D NAND. +[5468.00 --> 5478.00] The actual cost per gigabyte right now is not that much lower, but give it a little bit of time and we could see SSDs much more competitive with hard drives. +[5478.00 --> 5479.00] That would be awesome. +[5479.00 --> 5487.00] So remember guys, the benefits of 3D NAND are that they don't have to use quite the same crazy advanced process node technology +[5487.00 --> 5491.00] so they can actually use less sophisticated fabs, potentially. +[5491.00 --> 5495.00] Also, better reliability because they're using larger processes. +[5495.00 --> 5498.00] Better speed because of using a larger manufacturing process. +[5498.00 --> 5502.00] So cool stuff all around. +[5502.00 --> 5506.00] Everyone in the chat was all like, oh my god, 10 gig SSD. +[5506.00 --> 5507.00] Not yet. +[5507.00 --> 5508.00] Not yet. +[5508.00 --> 5509.00] Sorry guys. +[5509.00 --> 5512.00] I got everyone's panties all wet and I'm not even gonna do anything about it. +[5512.00 --> 5513.00] All right. +[5513.00 --> 5515.00] New York Times Square. +[5515.00 --> 5530.00] New Times Square Digital Billboard is 100 meters across and 8 stories tall, has 24 million pixels, and is powered by 3 AMD Fire Pro W9000 GPUs. +[5530.00 --> 5537.00] This is posted on fireuser.com and, or posted on the forum by A-A Ming and the original article is from fireuser.com. +[5537.00 --> 5540.00] I'm gonna go ahead and post that in here, you guys. +[5540.00 --> 5549.00] Wow, today I posted all the links in the chat, but I completely forgot about just bringing stuff up on my screen and screen sharing. +[5549.00 --> 5552.00] So it's like, one of these days I'm gonna learn to do both. +[5552.00 --> 5554.00] So here's the article from fireuser.com. +[5554.00 --> 5556.00] It looks amazing. +[5556.00 --> 5557.00] 24 megapixels. +[5557.00 --> 5560.00] This is the highest resolution display in the world, I believe. +[5560.00 --> 5562.00] That's actually insane. +[5562.00 --> 5563.00] Yeah. +[5563.00 --> 5565.00] Three, that's such a beast machine. +[5565.00 --> 5570.00] It'll be really exciting to see the massive error message whenever that happens. +[5570.00 --> 5574.00] Well, actually there might be higher resolution displays, but certainly nothing this big. +[5574.00 --> 5575.00] Yeah. +[5575.00 --> 5576.00] Yeah. +[5576.00 --> 5578.00] And that page isn't loading anyway, so apparently it was never meant to be. +[5578.00 --> 5583.00] So like, when the page can't load on that screen, it'll just be freaking huge. +[5583.00 --> 5584.00] That's my favorite thing. +[5584.00 --> 5586.00] You guys probably all hit that page. +[5586.00 --> 5588.00] That's why I can't load it. +[5588.00 --> 5589.00] Correct. +[5589.00 --> 5590.00] That's actually probably it. +[5590.00 --> 5593.00] I love seeing error messages on public machines. +[5593.00 --> 5594.00] Me too. +[5594.00 --> 5595.00] I don't know why. +[5595.00 --> 5604.00] Whenever you see like, I remember when I used to go to BCIT, they'd had these like, tall, very tall, like, uh, landscape? +[5604.00 --> 5605.00] Why am I thinking this? +[5605.00 --> 5606.00] Portrait? +[5606.00 --> 5607.00] Portrait? +[5607.00 --> 5608.00] Yeah, portrait. +[5608.00 --> 5609.00] I don't know why I couldn't think of that properly. +[5609.00 --> 5611.00] You have a landscape that's kind of this way. +[5611.00 --> 5612.00] Yeah. +[5612.00 --> 5613.00] Just hold your head like this. +[5613.00 --> 5618.00] It could be like if there's mountains on each side and you're looking in between them. +[5618.00 --> 5620.00] Anyways, don't worry about it. +[5620.00 --> 5624.00] Um, yeah, portrait mode monitors that would like show you a map of the school and stuff. +[5624.00 --> 5626.00] And when they blue screened, it was hilarious. +[5626.00 --> 5630.00] This is a giant, super tall portrait blue screen. +[5630.00 --> 5632.00] It's like, oh, thank you. +[5632.00 --> 5633.00] Awesome. +[5633.00 --> 5634.00] Super helpful. +[5634.00 --> 5640.00] Speaking of super tall, our last topic, and this actually is a legitimate segue, is ISO. +[5640.00 --> 5641.00] I always say it wrong. +[5641.00 --> 5642.00] I always say it ISO. +[5642.00 --> 5643.00] That's how it's pronounced in English. +[5643.00 --> 5646.00] If I look at it phonetically, I think there's a different way of saying it. +[5646.00 --> 5650.00] Um, has revealed a new monitor with a one to one aspect ratio. +[5650.00 --> 5651.00] Oh, okay. +[5651.00 --> 5653.00] 19-20 by 19-20 resolution. +[5653.00 --> 5654.00] What? +[5654.00 --> 5655.00] 26 and a half inches. +[5655.00 --> 5661.00] And they're saying, sort of the sales pitch here, this is a professional oriented monitor. +[5661.00 --> 5663.00] It's convenient for longer content. +[5663.00 --> 5664.00] Mm-hmm. +[5664.00 --> 5669.00] Allows for a compromise between vertical and horizontal monitors. +[5669.00 --> 5670.00] That it does. +[5670.00 --> 5675.00] Uses an anti-lare IPS panel, professional glibber aid monitor, don't expect it to be cheap, +[5675.00 --> 5680.00] available Q1 2015, and the least innovative thing ever. +[5680.00 --> 5681.00] That's super weird. +[5681.00 --> 5686.00] Because we already had five to four monitors 100 bazillion years ago. +[5686.00 --> 5688.00] And everyone was like, nah. +[5688.00 --> 5689.00] Let's go widescreen. +[5689.00 --> 5694.00] So now it's an innovation to make it even more square than before. +[5694.00 --> 5695.00] That's super weird. +[5695.00 --> 5699.00] I don't think this is really gonna work out for them super well. +[5699.00 --> 5702.00] Well, remember, they're relatively low volume. +[5702.00 --> 5708.00] They're aiming at, like, professional applications where, yeah, the picture of it is like super +[5708.00 --> 5709.00] goofball. +[5709.00 --> 5710.00] It looks fake. +[5710.00 --> 5711.00] And it looks super old, too. +[5711.00 --> 5712.00] Yeah. +[5712.00 --> 5714.00] It's pretty silly looking here. +[5714.00 --> 5716.00] I'll screen share with you guys. +[5716.00 --> 5720.00] So this is the Flexiscan EV2730Q. +[5720.00 --> 5721.00] Oh. +[5721.00 --> 5724.00] Apparently I'm on the wrong page. +[5724.00 --> 5725.00] There we go. +[5725.00 --> 5726.00] Looks a little something like that. +[5726.00 --> 5728.00] Like, it actually just, it looks just wrong. +[5728.00 --> 5729.00] Yeah. +[5729.00 --> 5730.00] That's so weird. +[5730.00 --> 5732.00] 1920 pixels by 1920 pixels. +[5732.00 --> 5735.00] It's funny because you've never seen a square monitor before, probably. +[5735.00 --> 5739.00] So, like, looking at one looks unnatural and weird. +[5739.00 --> 5741.00] It's like there's something wrong with it. +[5741.00 --> 5745.00] So 78% more pixels compared to full HD. +[5745.00 --> 5746.00] Cool, man. +[5746.00 --> 5748.00] Can I just have widescreen, please? +[5748.00 --> 5757.00] You know, it's funny because, like, I was never much of an advocate for widescreen at +[5757.00 --> 5763.00] the beginning when the affordable ones were 1440 by 900 and we didn't have enough vertical +[5763.00 --> 5764.00] pixels. +[5764.00 --> 5766.00] But then that problem goes away. +[5766.00 --> 5770.00] As soon as you have enough vertical pixels on a Windows machine where scaling doesn't +[5770.00 --> 5771.00] really work. +[5771.00 --> 5774.00] So you just actually need more pixels to fit enough stuff on the screen. +[5774.00 --> 5779.00] But as soon as that happened, as soon as we got 1200 vertical pixels, I was totally cool +[5779.00 --> 5780.00] with widescreen. +[5780.00 --> 5785.00] Then we moved back to 16 by 9 and then we didn't have enough vertical pixels again. +[5785.00 --> 5789.00] And now, to compensate, we're going all the way back to 1 to 1 apparently. +[5789.00 --> 5791.00] 16 by 10 is still a great aspect ratio. +[5791.00 --> 5792.00] I love 16 by 10. +[5792.00 --> 5794.00] And I wish that there were more monitors that you could do. +[5794.00 --> 5795.00] Me too. +[5795.00 --> 5796.00] Huge fan of 16 by 10. +[5796.00 --> 5797.00] That's kind of sad. +[5797.00 --> 5800.00] Which is, I guess, all there is really to the WAN show today, isn't it? +[5800.00 --> 5801.00] Yeah. +[5801.00 --> 5804.00] There's a few other things, but I don't know if they're super important. +[5804.00 --> 5805.00] You can do it if you want. +[5805.00 --> 5806.00] Do what? +[5806.00 --> 5807.00] I don't know. +[5807.00 --> 5808.00] Other things you think are important? +[5808.00 --> 5809.00] No, I said I don't know if there's something. +[5809.00 --> 5811.00] There's that hydrogen car that's coming. +[5811.00 --> 5813.00] That sounds super ball and cool. +[5813.00 --> 5814.00] Yeah. +[5814.00 --> 5816.00] I'm still more excited about... +[5816.00 --> 5817.00] Oh, yeah, there's Elon Musk. +[5817.00 --> 5819.00] Elon Musk is still worried about Terminator. +[5819.00 --> 5820.00] Yeah. +[5820.00 --> 5821.00] AI and badness. +[5821.00 --> 5823.00] I think he's talked about that before. +[5823.00 --> 5825.00] Yeah, we've talked about him talking about that before. +[5825.00 --> 5826.00] Yeah. +[5826.00 --> 5827.00] So he's just... +[5827.00 --> 5828.00] Okay. +[5828.00 --> 5829.00] Continuing his conversation. +[5829.00 --> 5830.00]

Welcome to the WAN Show! Sorry guys Luke couldn't join us yet, don't worry he'll be here in a little bit, but for now, Slenderman will be taking his place while I introduce the topics for the day and all that good stuff because Luke is actually finishing up what will be tomorrow's video right now. +[21.12 --> 38.12] We're gonna be covering the ASUS Gladius ROG mouse. It was supposed to be an Assassin's Creed Unity performance guide with a bunch of graphics cards and benchmarking and all that stuff, but I'll let him cover when he gets back why that didn't happen. +[38.12 --> 48.12] Yeah, it was pretty bad. So we've got a lot of great topics for you guys today, aside from that, and AMD has released the Mantle Public SDK. +[48.12 --> 61.12] So they are pretty much inviting everyone with some need to have a super like bear to the metal graphics API, whether it's game developers or say for example other hardware manufacturers. +[61.12 --> 70.12] They are inviting everyone to the party. AT&T is acting like a small child about the ongoing net neutrality debate in the US. +[70.12 --> 75.12] And honestly, this is just unreal, so we'll give you more details on that. +[75.12 --> 84.12] And the Nvidia Shield tablet is gonna be one of the first devices not made by Google to feature the new Android 5.0 Lollipop OS. +[84.12 --> 89.12] Oh, also, I guess, you know, grid game streaming went out of beta, so we'll talk about that as well. +[89.12 --> 98.12] But for now, I gotta roll the intro to buy myself some time to go ahead and get our announcement video up that we're live. So that's a thing. +[98.12 --> 109.12] Oh, there's no music in this one, I swear. One of these days, I'm gonna figure out which one has the music and this is not gonna happen anymore. +[109.12 --> 119.12] Do tu tu, tu tu tu tu, tu tu, tu do you Dieu哪e due de halæ, addliker Humal, addlj das, addlikerHan from the nutrintest. +[119.12 --> 124.12] Oh yeah, one of our sponsors today is Squarespace! +[124.12 --> 128.62] Actually, there's a bunch of new and really cool stuff about Squarespace for this week. +[128.62 --> 130.12] We'll be covering that a little bit later. +[130.12 --> 135.00] And our second sponsor for today, ignore that one that flashed in between, that wardrobe +[135.00 --> 137.64] malfunction, is Phantom Glass. +[137.64 --> 143.86] Visit store.phantom.glass to learn more about the last screen protector you will ever need. +[143.86 --> 147.72] That's their slogan, and I actually believe it in this case. +[147.72 --> 151.68] It's a Gorilla Glass cover for your Gorilla Glass, so you can Gorilla will you Gorilla. +[151.68 --> 154.44] Alright, now I'm going to go ahead and finish this. +[154.44 --> 157.44] Click now to watch live. +[157.44 --> 162.96] http.com slash slash twitch.tv slash latest tech. +[162.96 --> 163.96] Boom! +[163.96 --> 165.54] Alright, that video's up. +[165.54 --> 167.54] So let's jump right into our first topic. +[167.54 --> 173.56] AMD releases public mantle SDK, well, this year. +[173.56 --> 176.72] So let's go ahead and first give credit to our OP. +[176.72 --> 182.94] So Teraflop posted this on the Linus Tech Tips forum, and the original article is from, +[182.94 --> 189.44] and I know these guys aren't the most popular source of news on the Linus Tech Tips forum, +[189.44 --> 196.44] but WCCF Tech posted that it is coming this year, and AMD has basically come out and said, +[196.44 --> 200.32] look, Nvidia and Intel, we want you guys to use it. +[200.32 --> 202.66] You can use it for free. +[202.66 --> 207.16] Now, Intel has expressed some interest in mantle, apparently. +[207.16 --> 215.66] Um, Nvidia, on the other hand, has not been that warm, and has not been that friendly to the whole idea, +[215.66 --> 219.88] but, I mean, this was something that we've talked about in the past as well. +[219.88 --> 226.88] It might not necessarily be about mantle being the API for, you know, every future game, +[226.88 --> 233.88] although they do have a surprising number of games on the list of already released, +[233.88 --> 239.10] to be released soon, and currently in development that are supporting this technology. +[239.10 --> 245.10] But it might not end up being mantle API that, you know, the game runs on ultimately five years from now. +[245.10 --> 252.40] But, what's great about them opening up the kimono a little bit like this is Kronos and Microsoft, +[252.40 --> 257.56] so the OpenGL and DirectX guys have already said that they are looking at mantle, +[257.56 --> 261.62] and possibly implementing various parts of it in their own API. +[261.62 --> 266.08] So, I mean, OpenGL has the advantage of its ubiquity. +[266.08 --> 271.94] I mean, you can run OpenGL games on a tablet, or you can run them on a PC. +[271.94 --> 274.50] Um, so, that's really cool. +[274.50 --> 278.42] DirectX, of course, has that amazing backwards compatibility, +[278.42 --> 283.22] as well as that enormous industry-wide support on the PC side of things. +[283.22 --> 289.68] And, so, if either of those get anything positive out of AMD's public mantle SDK, +[289.68 --> 293.14] then that's, uh, that's absolutely fantastic. +[293.14 --> 297.86] So, that's, I mean, it's, it's incredible how much momentum it's gained, +[297.86 --> 300.94] and yet how it might not end up being the winner. +[300.94 --> 304.86] But, there's no question that mantle has pushed the industry forward, +[304.86 --> 309.66] and we should definitely be thankful for that. +[309.66 --> 310.58] Alright. +[310.58 --> 311.58] Alright. +[311.58 --> 313.58] I just, I, you know, +[313.58 --> 315.58] let's do a straw poll here. +[315.58 --> 316.38] I want to hear from you guys. +[316.38 --> 317.38] Okay. +[317.38 --> 318.38] Straw poll. +[318.38 --> 327.10] Will NVIDIA provide any kind of mantle support? +[327.10 --> 328.10] Yes. +[328.10 --> 329.10] No. +[329.10 --> 334.30] And, let's go with Apple Fritter for our third option, +[334.30 --> 338.22] because I know how much you guys love, you know, +[338.22 --> 341.22] just not contributing to the poll at all. +[341.22 --> 342.22] Alright. +[342.22 --> 344.22] Let's go ahead and spam the chat with this bad boy. +[344.22 --> 346.22] Boom, boom, boom. +[346.22 --> 349.22] Ah, I missed that first time. +[349.22 --> 350.22] Yeah. +[350.22 --> 352.22] No matter where you click in that. +[352.22 --> 354.22] Apparently, the camera looks really bad today. +[354.22 --> 356.22] I don't know what you're talking about. +[356.22 --> 357.22] Alright. +[357.22 --> 358.22] There we go. +[358.22 --> 361.22] All that spam. +[361.22 --> 365.22] So, we've already got, who's this in Twitch chat? +[365.22 --> 367.14] One Man Pizza in Twitch chat already says, +[367.14 --> 370.14] it's not even a question they will never. +[370.14 --> 373.62] I don't necessarily think that's true. +[373.62 --> 377.02] I mean, it's not like NVIDIA is in a position where, +[377.02 --> 380.98] if some game comes out that ends up actually running, +[380.98 --> 385.86] you know, 20, 30% better on mantle compared to DirectX 12, +[385.86 --> 388.18] which looks like it's going to offer many of the same benefits. +[388.18 --> 390.18] So, this kind of thing seems very unlikely. +[390.18 --> 393.26] But, if there was a game, like a really key game, +[393.26 --> 398.62] or lots of games, like a dozen games that run 20, 30% faster on mantle, +[398.62 --> 402.98] you really think NVIDIA's not going to leverage that if they can? +[402.98 --> 405.18] I don't think that's true at all. +[405.18 --> 407.02] But, let's go ahead and see what you guys think. +[407.02 --> 411.62] Let's fire up these results here while I move on to the next topic. +[411.62 --> 412.14] Wow. +[412.14 --> 415.94] We've got 51% of you saying no. +[415.94 --> 422.02] 30% of you saying Apple Fritter and a tiny 19% of you saying yes. +[422.02 --> 427.58] So, it looks like you guys are pretty much on the same page about both Apple Fritters +[427.58 --> 433.02] and the chances that NVIDIA will provide any kind of support in their drivers for mantle. +[433.02 --> 435.02] So, all right. +[435.02 --> 437.02] Our next topic. +[437.02 --> 438.02] Actually, you know what? +[438.02 --> 444.02] This is a Ubisoft thing, so I think I'm really just going to have to wait until Luke gets here for this. +[444.02 --> 448.02] So, first up is, this was posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[448.02 --> 449.02] Let's go. +[449.02 --> 451.02] And the original article here is from Engadget. +[451.02 --> 459.66] But, Tom Wheeler, the FCC Chairman, says that he may ignore Obama on the topic of net neutrality. +[459.66 --> 468.66] Now, he made it very clear that even though he was appointed by Obama, the FCC is a separate entity, +[468.66 --> 477.66] just because the White House says something like, you know, oh, we want to classify the Internet in the same way that we now classify telephone lines, +[477.66 --> 485.66] so there can be no messing about with the way that traffic gets allocated and the way that bandwidth gets allocated, +[485.66 --> 492.66] so that, you know, large corporations would have an advantage if they're able to afford to pay for Internet fast lanes. +[492.66 --> 497.66] So, Obama's basically said, look, you know, net neutrality is a really good thing, +[497.66 --> 502.66] but the FCC Chairman has come out and said that he thinks that the solution, while, you know, +[502.66 --> 511.66] hopefully, hopefully, you know, the solution that the Internet service providers are offering up, +[511.66 --> 514.66] which is that they should basically be able to do whatever they want, as far as I can tell, +[514.66 --> 519.66] he's saying he prefers a more nuanced solution. +[519.66 --> 524.66] So, you guys can interpret that however you want, but it sounds like what we're likely to end up with +[524.66 --> 530.66] isn't going to be straight net neutrality and isn't going to be straight the ISPs are allowed to do whatever they want, +[530.66 --> 537.66] but some critics and advocates are expressing their concern that a compromise between these two +[537.66 --> 545.66] might just end up with a muddy set of rules that doesn't actually have a whole lot of meaning in the real world. +[545.66 --> 553.66] So, guys, there are a thousand places that you can voice your opinion on the subject of net neutrality, +[553.66 --> 557.66] but the only thing I really had to say about it at this point is go voice it. +[557.66 --> 565.66] It's extremely important. Without net neutrality, we could see situations where, let's say, a company like, +[565.66 --> 571.66] oh, I don't know, hypothetically, Netflix were to try to start a, let's say, hypothetically, streaming service +[571.66 --> 579.66] where they deliver video programming to people's homes, and let's say, you know, an incumbent, let's say, Comcast, +[579.66 --> 586.66] whose business happens to be, and these are just examples, these are hypothetical companies, any semblance they bear to existing companies is purely coincidental, +[586.66 --> 594.66] so let's say, for example, this company hypothetically named Comcast goes, oh, well, you know, we're in the business of providing internet connections to people's homes, +[594.66 --> 601.66] but we're also in the business of providing video content to people's homes, and if these guys are going to use our lines for that, +[601.66 --> 608.66] well, they should be paying us a lot more than necessarily the, you know, exact amount we would normally charge for the amount of bandwidth that they're using, +[608.66 --> 616.66] and if we don't maintain net neutrality, we will be stuck in a situation where they would be free to do that, +[616.66 --> 623.66] and we could rely on the courts to enforce any kinds of, you know, anti-competitive laws or whatever else, +[623.66 --> 638.66] but we talked about this last week where, oh, shoot, and I forget how long it took, I think it was back in 2000 was the issue with Intel misrepresenting the performance of their Pentium 4 processors against AMD's competitor, +[638.66 --> 646.66] and so 14 years later, last week this was news, people who bought that misrepresented processor got $15. +[646.66 --> 658.66] I mean, that's how long this takes, and that's how ineffective it is, so I wouldn't rely on that, we just need to make sure that we keep the freedoms that we already enjoy in the first place, +[658.66 --> 667.66] if we want to have any chance of not living in a world where our ISPs are in control, because we know how awesome they are. +[667.66 --> 679.66] Speaking of how awesome our ISPs are, AT&T has publicly, okay, this was posted by Dietrich W. on the forum, the original article here is from The Verge, I'll just pull this up here, +[679.66 --> 698.66] but AT&T has, oh, that's weird, oops, okay, hold on a second, let's just change my screen share around here, wow, it just decided that it was going to go into extend mode rather than duplicate, okay, what? +[698.66 --> 701.66] What? +[701.66 --> 702.66] What? +[702.66 --> 706.66] What? +[706.66 --> 709.66] Sometimes I just don't even, you know? +[709.66 --> 714.66] Like, I just don't even get it. +[714.66 --> 722.66] So, let's just show desktop only on one, let's try that first, okay? +[722.66 --> 727.66] Keep changes, sorry guys, then let's try, uh, oh, +[727.66 --> 734.66] okay, and then that display is completely not detected anymore, which might explain some of why it's being a little bit borked. +[734.66 --> 744.66] Anyway, the original article is from The Verge here, and AT&T has basically said, well, you know, look, we're not going to invest in high-speed fiber connections, +[744.66 --> 751.66] and there were, they're in talks with something along the lines of a hundred cities about getting high-speed fiber rolled out, +[751.66 --> 758.66] and this looked very reactionary to Google fiber starting to roll out in selected cities, and so they're saying, okay, look, +[758.66 --> 764.66] we're not going to invest in any of that stuff until we know the lay of the land with the new rules. +[764.66 --> 773.66] Um, so, basically, how much money they're going to be able to squeeze out of every, you know, foot of fiber that they lay down in these cities. +[773.66 --> 780.66] And this is extremely disappointing to me, not only because they already got the money to build a better infrastructure. +[780.66 --> 786.66] I mean, this was, this is, this is well documented at this point. They got the money, they did nothing with it. +[786.66 --> 794.66] So, aside from that they've already been paid, um, this is disappointing because it's not like they're not doing just fine today. +[794.66 --> 804.66] The plan to roll out this high-speed fiber networking is in place on the basis of they're already doing just fine, +[804.66 --> 810.66] charging people as much as they're charging them for internet connections that at some point they had to build the infrastructure for, +[810.66 --> 814.66] and at some point that investment paid off. From a business standpoint, +[814.66 --> 821.66] investing in something that you can get someone to pay you fifty to seventy-five dollars a month or whatever else for +[821.66 --> 829.66] in densely populated areas is a winning proposition and the only reason that they can afford to just sit on ass +[829.66 --> 835.66] until presumably sometime in early to mid-2015 when these rulings get finalized. +[835.66 --> 842.66] I mean, if it even happens then, the only reason they're able to do that is because it is so difficult for competitors to come in +[842.66 --> 848.66] and force them to step up their game. So, I, I don't know how all this plays out. +[848.66 --> 854.66] I mean, it's, it's easy for me to say as a Canadian, well, this is all kind of US nonsense, so it will never affect me here. +[854.66 --> 861.66] But the problem is that so much of what happens in the US does tend to become a precedent that's been set for it now, +[861.66 --> 870.66] and it does tend to trickle down to other places. Not everywhere, but in the case of Canada, that tends to happen a whole heck of a lot. +[870.66 --> 877.66] And our ISPs are no less evil than the American ISPs, so they're gonna look at what worked down there, +[877.66 --> 882.66] and they're gonna push real hard to have it, you know, work up here, and they're gonna build case studies, +[882.66 --> 886.66] and they're gonna lobby our politicians and go, oh, well, look how successful this was. +[886.66 --> 892.66] It, you know, did this for the economy because we're able to charge this much more to, to whatever else. So... +[892.66 --> 901.66] What a childish thing to do. We're just gonna stop building any more, better infrastructure until, you know, we get... +[901.66 --> 905.66] They haven't, they haven't said that it has to be a favorable ruling. +[905.66 --> 909.66] They've just said that they are gonna reevaluate their plans once there's a ruling, +[909.66 --> 913.66] but I think we all kind of know how this is, how this is gonna play out. +[913.66 --> 922.66] Got people asking, where's Luke? Luke is recording a video right now, so as soon as he's done, +[922.66 --> 928.66] he's gonna jump up here and join me and then boot Slenderman out of his spot. +[928.66 --> 935.66] Alright, so this is, uh, this is a really unfortunate little piece of news. +[935.66 --> 942.66] This was posted by Victoria's Secret on the forum, and it is unusual for large companies like NVIDIA +[942.66 --> 950.66] to come out and speak, speak publicly, to post on their blog about, you know, something like an ongoing lawsuit. +[950.66 --> 954.66] But, uh, this is, this is really important, not because of... +[954.66 --> 956.66] Really? +[956.66 --> 961.66] I straight up don't understand where that's coming from. +[961.66 --> 963.66] That is... +[963.66 --> 966.66] Oh, I know what it is. +[966.66 --> 970.66] That's, uh, that's a screen grab of the last thing that I was looking at. +[970.66 --> 972.66] It's not updating anymore. +[972.66 --> 973.66] I see. +[973.66 --> 974.66] Okay. +[974.66 --> 976.66] Well, you guys will just have to take my word for it. +[976.66 --> 980.66] It's on NVIDIA's blog, and, uh, basically, I'm gonna kinda run through the whole thing here, +[980.66 --> 986.66] because it's super, it's super crappy, and Samsung is behaving like a spoiled child about this. +[986.66 --> 991.66] So they basically said, look, we filed patent lawsuits two months ago against Samsung and Qualcomm, +[991.66 --> 995.66] alleging that they've used our patented GPU technology without proper compensation to us. +[995.66 --> 999.66] When we filed those suits, we fully expected to be sued in response. +[999.66 --> 1001.66] It's a predictable tactic. +[1001.66 --> 1005.66] So we weren't surprised when earlier this week Samsung filed the lawsuit against us, +[1005.66 --> 1007.66] adding in for good measure Velocity Micro. +[1007.66 --> 1010.66] I don't know if you guys are familiar with Velocity Micro. +[1010.66 --> 1017.66] If you don't follow the boutique system builder space, you know, the Falcon Northwest and, uh, you know, +[1017.66 --> 1021.66] Puget Systems guys of the world, you might never have heard of Velocity Micro, +[1021.66 --> 1025.66] but they're a pretty small company. +[1025.66 --> 1026.66] Okay? +[1026.66 --> 1030.66] They're not, like, a gigantic mega-corporation like a, like a Dell, +[1030.66 --> 1034.66] where there could be some kind of, you know, collusion between Dell and NVIDIA +[1034.66 --> 1039.66] to allegedly break some Samsung patent or something. +[1039.66 --> 1042.66] They're just, they're just a system integrator, very similar to, +[1042.66 --> 1049.66] this could have just as easily happened to any other shop that builds custom gaming rigs +[1049.66 --> 1050.66] and sells them on their website. +[1050.66 --> 1056.66] So, they included Velocity Micro, a small customer based in Virginia. +[1056.66 --> 1058.66] So their action focuses on eight patents. +[1058.66 --> 1060.66] NVIDIA is alleged to have violated six. +[1060.66 --> 1065.66] And included in the, in the filing is a false advertising claim against NVIDIA, +[1065.66 --> 1069.66] um, that the statement about the Shield tablet with the Tegra K1 processor +[1069.66 --> 1071.66] is the world's fastest mobile processor. +[1071.66 --> 1073.66] They're saying it's false and misleading. +[1073.66 --> 1075.66] So NVIDIA goes and, like, straight up puts, +[1075.66 --> 1079.66] here's our benchmarks against the Exynos 5433 that's in the Note 4. +[1079.66 --> 1081.66] Yeah, you're not faster. +[1081.66 --> 1086.66] Yes, NVIDIA did include a lot of gaming focused benchmarks. +[1086.66 --> 1088.66] So, are they spinning things a little bit? +[1088.66 --> 1090.66] Uh, yes. +[1090.66 --> 1094.66] But, they also included some non-gaming focused benchmarks. +[1094.66 --> 1098.66] And it looks like if you were to just sort of, you know, fire a shotgun, +[1098.66 --> 1104.66] and if you hit sort of, you know, the dozen or 15 or so benchmarks that they ran, +[1104.66 --> 1107.66] you would hit more that NVIDIA wins than that Samsung wins. +[1107.66 --> 1110.66] And, uh, pretty much, here we go. +[1110.66 --> 1112.66] It's unfortunate that Samsung sued Velocity. +[1112.66 --> 1113.66] This isn't Velocity's fight. +[1113.66 --> 1119.66] This is, this is just extremely, this is just extremely crappy of Velocity. +[1119.66 --> 1123.66] And this isn't something that, um, that NVIDIA's put in their article, +[1123.66 --> 1128.66] but it is something that I've seen in some of the articles about NVIDIA's blog post. +[1128.66 --> 1134.66] But, you know, we gotta consider when we shop a lot of different things that often we don't. +[1134.66 --> 1135.66] We tend to look at a spec sheet. +[1135.66 --> 1137.66] We tend to look at a benchmark score. +[1137.66 --> 1139.66] And we tend to look at a price. +[1139.66 --> 1143.66] And then we go ahead and we make a purchasing decision. +[1143.66 --> 1148.66] But, I mean, no one, I shouldn't say no one. +[1148.66 --> 1154.66] I think a lot of us are frustrated at times with the way that Apple behaves with respect to its patents. +[1154.66 --> 1158.66] But, is Samsung really being any less vindictive? +[1158.66 --> 1161.66] And it's one thing if they're gonna go after another big boy. +[1161.66 --> 1164.66] You know, if they're gonna go after an Apple or an NVIDIA. +[1164.66 --> 1168.66] But it's a whole other one if they bring in a little company like Velocity +[1168.66 --> 1171.66] that didn't do anything other than put NVIDIA graphics cards in their systems. +[1171.66 --> 1175.66] Um, just because, and this is NVIDIA's theory, this is allegedly, +[1175.66 --> 1180.66] just because Virginia tends to process these filings extremely quickly +[1180.66 --> 1183.66] and Velocity had the bad luck to be located in Virginia. +[1183.66 --> 1189.66] So, just something to, something to consider. +[1189.66 --> 1192.66] Oh, there, there is an open letter to the public from Randy Copeland, +[1192.66 --> 1194.66] the CEO of Velocity Micro, where he basically says, +[1194.66 --> 1199.66] look, we know nothing about the previous issues between Samsung and NVIDIA, +[1199.66 --> 1200.66] and we don't care. +[1200.66 --> 1204.66] You know, his response really had a very, he had a very, +[1204.66 --> 1206.66] it had a very bitter tone to it. +[1206.66 --> 1211.66] And he basically said, we'll have to use company resources to defend ourselves from Samsung, +[1211.66 --> 1214.66] an obviously mismatched opponent. +[1214.66 --> 1218.66] And he says, if this is how Samsung operates, we want no part of it, +[1218.66 --> 1223.66] and we hope others agree, and we'll consider this during the upcoming holiday shopping season. +[1225.66 --> 1226.66] Can't say I disagree. +[1226.66 --> 1229.66] Mr. Copeland, who I've actually never had the pleasure of meeting, +[1229.66 --> 1233.66] but seems like a nice enough guy and doesn't deserve this kind of nonsense. +[1233.66 --> 1239.66] All right, I've got another Ubisoft thing here that I'm going to skip and wait for Luke to come in so he can weigh on. +[1239.66 --> 1248.66] But, I have the most hilarious thing that I probably saw this entire week to show you guys here. +[1248.66 --> 1254.66] And I'm going to fire it up on this computer so that I can screen share with you guys so you can see this. +[1254.66 --> 1257.66] But this is freaking unreal. +[1257.66 --> 1261.66] Gigabyte releases a triple, or it shows off. +[1261.66 --> 1263.66] I don't think you can buy it yet. +[1263.66 --> 1266.66] I'd be surprised if you can ever buy it, to be perfectly honest. +[1266.66 --> 1268.66] Um, shoot, where did it go? +[1268.66 --> 1269.66] I can buy you. +[1269.66 --> 1271.66] I'll buy your face. +[1271.66 --> 1272.66] Cool. +[1272.66 --> 1275.66] All right, so the original article here is from Tech Power Up. +[1275.66 --> 1277.66] Let's go ahead and do a quick screen share. +[1277.66 --> 1283.66] I don't know what's broken about my, uh, my stupid thing here, but I can't screen share again this week. +[1283.66 --> 1285.66] All right, screen region. Boom. +[1288.66 --> 1294.66] Okay, Gigabyte announces GTX 980 Water Force Tri SLI. +[1294.66 --> 1305.66] All right, so this is three GTX 980s, each with their own individual 120mm radiator and 120mm cooling fan. +[1305.66 --> 1314.66] It features this massive, like, coolant, exos-style external radiator system thing. +[1314.66 --> 1332.66] And then, presumably, because Gigabyte wanted to use a prepackaged solution, um, instead of going with a custom pump configuration, and then allowing one pump, or even dual pumps, to power the whole thing, each of these is its own separate all-in-one, with its own separate pump. +[1332.66 --> 1335.66] Really? +[1335.66 --> 1340.66] And then its own separate set of inlet and outlet lines into the computer. +[1340.66 --> 1347.66] So you actually have to run all six of these tubes into your computer with this box sitting next to it. +[1347.66 --> 1350.66] How are you even going to be able to do that, though? +[1350.66 --> 1351.66] Uh... +[1351.66 --> 1354.66] Because I could see, like, are they really, really small tubing? +[1354.66 --> 1356.66] They look like quarter-inch to me. +[1356.66 --> 1357.66] Oh, man. +[1357.66 --> 1358.66] So they're not hyper-small. +[1358.66 --> 1364.66] Like, you're probably ripping a PCI, like, slot out of the back of your case. +[1364.66 --> 1365.66] Yeah, that's gross. +[1365.66 --> 1367.66] Because, like, you're not going to be able to get through the included grommets. +[1367.66 --> 1373.66] And because it's pre-filled, okay, because it's pre-filled, you can't even, like, go through a grommet. +[1373.66 --> 1374.66] Oh, my God. +[1374.66 --> 1377.66] Unless you could thread your graphics card through your water-cooling grommet. +[1377.66 --> 1378.66] Oh, my God. +[1378.66 --> 1379.66] So this... +[1379.66 --> 1382.66] You wouldn't be able to go through one of the expansion card slots either, then. +[1382.66 --> 1383.66] Oh, yeah. +[1383.66 --> 1385.66] Wait, how is this even supposed to work? +[1385.66 --> 1386.66] I wonder if they do have quick... +[1386.66 --> 1387.66] Would you have to go through the front? +[1387.66 --> 1388.66] Maybe they have quick connects. +[1388.66 --> 1390.66] Okay, maybe I'm wrong about this. +[1390.66 --> 1391.66] Don't quote me on that. +[1391.66 --> 1392.66] The front! +[1392.66 --> 1394.66] You have to go through the front! +[1394.66 --> 1397.66] Nooooooo. +[1397.66 --> 1399.66] That's horrible! +[1399.66 --> 1400.66] Nooooooo. +[1400.66 --> 1404.66] And they didn't even sleep the cable. Look. Look, look, look, look, look. +[1404.66 --> 1407.66] This is worse than I could have possibly imagined. +[1407.66 --> 1408.66] They can't even see this, can they? +[1408.66 --> 1409.66] Yeah, they can. +[1409.66 --> 1410.66] Yeah, yeah, they're looking at this right now. +[1410.66 --> 1411.66] Okay. +[1411.66 --> 1413.66] Come on. +[1413.66 --> 1416.66] Is that... Okay, do they give you a custom, like, bay thing? +[1416.66 --> 1417.66] I guess so. +[1417.66 --> 1418.66] That is it, isn't it? Yeah. +[1418.66 --> 1419.66] Wow. +[1419.66 --> 1420.66] Wow. +[1420.66 --> 1421.66] Just wow. +[1421.66 --> 1424.66] Mind you, mind you, here, this is a value add. +[1424.66 --> 1426.66] It comes with this graphics card reinforcement... +[1426.66 --> 1427.66] Cool. +[1427.66 --> 1428.66] Bracket doohickey. +[1428.66 --> 1429.66] Bracket doohickey. +[1429.66 --> 1433.66] And, and so, yeah. +[1433.66 --> 1434.66] Is that a custom? +[1434.66 --> 1435.66] That's a cool SLI bridge. +[1435.66 --> 1436.66] Yeah. +[1436.66 --> 1438.66] I'm not gonna buy this... +[1438.66 --> 1439.66] No. +[1439.66 --> 1440.66] No. +[1440.66 --> 1442.66] To get that SLI bridge, mind you, but... +[1442.66 --> 1447.66] But I wouldn't buy that to buy the, like, thing that looks like a bicycle tire pump either. +[1447.66 --> 1448.66] So, yeah. +[1448.66 --> 1449.66] Yeah. +[1449.66 --> 1450.66] Welcome to the show. +[1450.66 --> 1451.66] Thank you. +[1451.66 --> 1453.66] Um, so I was saving the Ubisoft topics. +[1453.66 --> 1454.66] Oh, yeah. +[1454.66 --> 1455.66] So I should probably finish up. +[1455.66 --> 1458.66] I should probably finish up that graphics card thing for you guys. +[1458.66 --> 1467.66] Uh, each of the cards is gonna be clocked at 1228 MHz core, 1329 boost, although of course you'll be able to overclock them further, with 7 GHz on the memory. +[1467.66 --> 1474.66] Um, the front panel can control fan speeds and coolant pressure of each of the three loops. +[1474.66 --> 1478.66] If for whatever reason you wanted to do that. +[1478.66 --> 1481.66] And I think that's pretty much it. +[1481.66 --> 1486.66] It's fully assembled in the factory, but I think that was implied when I said these were pre-built. +[1486.66 --> 1487.66] Yeah. +[1487.66 --> 1488.66] Okay. +[1488.66 --> 1492.66] So let's start with, uh, let's start with this article on PCPer.com. +[1492.66 --> 1497.66] Um, and I apologize for this just being sort of a little bit kludgy this week. +[1497.66 --> 1499.66] I will figure out what's wrong with the capture card. +[1499.66 --> 1502.66] Um, so here's the original article from PCPer.com. +[1502.66 --> 1519.66] It was posted by ObscureMammal on the forum where, um, Ryan had an article, or had an opportunity to talk to the Ubisoft development team about, hey, you know, what the heck is going on over there. +[1519.66 --> 1529.66] Um, so basically the development team came back and said that Assassin's Creed Unity is one of the most detailed games on the market. +[1529.66 --> 1532.66] It has a giant, hold on, hold on, just calm down, Luke. +[1532.66 --> 1537.66] It has a giant open world city with tens of thousands of objects visible on screen. +[1537.66 --> 1538.66] Paris is incredibly detailed. +[1538.66 --> 1542.66] For example, Notre Dame is millions of triangles itself. +[1542.66 --> 1547.66] It features global illumination, local reflections, realistic high dynamic range lighting. +[1547.66 --> 1562.66] They talked about scaling down the quality to allow for lower system requirements, but decided against it because they were targeting existing PC hardware, not future cards, but high-end existing PC hardware. +[1562.66 --> 1571.66] And this is a quote, our position always came back to us ensuring that Assassin's Creed Unity is a next-gen only game with breakthrough graphics. +[1571.66 --> 1576.66] With this vision, we did not degrade the visual quality of the game. +[1576.66 --> 1581.66] They are planning to continue working on Optima- Oh, I haven't been screen sharing with you guys. I'm sorry. +[1581.66 --> 1585.66] There's the article on PC Per. So, yeah. +[1585.66 --> 1593.66] Basically, it's just Ryan asking questions and then a big long thing. +[1593.66 --> 1598.66] Oh, there's some updates since the last time I had a... +[1598.66 --> 1604.66] Okay. So, apparently... Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So, there's updates. We can actually chat about these updates very briefly. +[1604.66 --> 1613.66] But the last part of what we originally sort of knew about this was that they're going to continue working on optimizations and you'll hear more details shortly. +[1613.66 --> 1624.66] So, here's an update. A couple of other media outlets have posted anonymous information that indicates that the draw call count for Assassin's Creed Unity is at fault for the poor performance of the game on PCs. +[1624.66 --> 1635.66] According to this quote-unquote anonymous source, while the consoles have low-level API access to hardware to accept and process several times the number of draw calls that DirectX 11 can, +[1635.66 --> 1647.66] DirectX 11 is limited to 7,000 to 10,000 peak draw calls while the game is apparently pushing in excess of 50,000 draw calls per frame. +[1647.66 --> 1658.66] And then, if this turns out to be true, it would be a confirmation that UBC didn't take the time to implement a DirectX 11 port correctly. +[1658.66 --> 1663.66] And if it's not true, or that's only partially to blame, then we're left with more meaningless finger pointing. +[1663.66 --> 1668.66] Because people really want to point fingers. I've seen fingers pointed at NVIDIA Gameworks. +[1668.66 --> 1669.66] Yeah. +[1669.66 --> 1671.66] I've seen fingers pointed at Ubisoft. +[1671.66 --> 1679.66] I actually don't think I've seen anyone blame Microsoft for this one, although you could make the argument that if we're draw call bound, +[1679.66 --> 1692.66] the overhead associated with DirectX 11 could be partially to blame, given that it's no secret that graphics card makers like AMD have been pushing for a lower-level API +[1692.66 --> 1698.66] to the point where they just went and created their own for an awfully long time now. +[1698.66 --> 1702.66] But it makes a ton of sense. +[1702.66 --> 1707.66] Especially because even though we weren't able to do our own performance testing of Assassin's Creed Unity, +[1707.66 --> 1709.66] and I'll let you go on that very soon. +[1709.66 --> 1713.66] Especially if we weren't able to do our own today and yesterday, which is what we wanted to do. +[1713.66 --> 1719.66] It makes sense given that we've looked at other people's performance analysis, and it just doesn't make any sense. +[1719.66 --> 1720.66] Yeah. +[1720.66 --> 1728.66] We don't seem to be limited by the traditional things like memory bandwidth or, you know, fill rates or... +[1728.66 --> 1737.66] At the same time though, pretty much everyone that I've seen actually reporting numbers has had like fairly blatant disclaimers. +[1737.66 --> 1739.66] Being like, it's pretty spiky. +[1739.66 --> 1746.66] Because like even the amount of times that I was able to get it live, like I could be just staring at one exact wall, +[1746.66 --> 1750.66] and like I lined up framings with like, okay, there's a groove along the wall here. +[1750.66 --> 1751.66] Yeah. +[1751.66 --> 1752.66] I'll put my screen exactly on that groove. +[1752.66 --> 1753.66] You stand on this spot. +[1753.66 --> 1754.66] I stand on exactly the spot. +[1754.66 --> 1755.66] Like I had the framing perfect. +[1755.66 --> 1758.66] And I'd look at it and get 63 FPS. +[1758.66 --> 1762.66] And I'd look away and come back, and now I'm at 52. +[1762.66 --> 1765.66] And I'm like... +[1765.66 --> 1766.66] Wow, bro. +[1766.66 --> 1767.66] What? +[1767.66 --> 1768.66] I'm staring at the same wall. +[1768.66 --> 1771.66] Like it should be the exact same performance, and it's just not. +[1771.66 --> 1772.66] Like why not? +[1772.66 --> 1774.66] What is wrong with you? +[1774.66 --> 1776.66] So are we actually here? +[1776.66 --> 1780.66] So why don't you give the update on your experience with Assassin's Creed Unity so far? +[1780.66 --> 1781.66] Okay, so... +[1781.66 --> 1782.66] I'm sure they want to hear from you. +[1782.66 --> 1783.66] I got it. +[1783.66 --> 1784.66] Because it's awesome. +[1784.66 --> 1786.66] Oh, hold on, hold on, hold on. +[1786.66 --> 1787.66] Yeah! +[1787.66 --> 1790.66] There's a little look. +[1790.66 --> 1791.66] I don't know if we're supposed to... +[1791.66 --> 1792.66] Anyways. +[1792.66 --> 1793.66] Um... +[1793.66 --> 1795.66] That's on my shirt. +[1795.66 --> 1796.66] I'll hold really still. +[1796.66 --> 1798.66] Yeah, there you go. +[1798.66 --> 1802.66] So it started off, I showed up to work quite early today. +[1802.66 --> 1805.66] Because I was like, I need to get this testing done before the WAN show. +[1805.66 --> 1808.66] Trying to be all good Samaritan and get you guys a video. +[1808.66 --> 1809.66] Yeah! +[1809.66 --> 1813.66] Didn't get a successful boot for, what, two and a half hours? +[1813.66 --> 1814.66] Yeah! +[1814.66 --> 1817.66] No, you were talking to me at like quarter to nine. +[1817.66 --> 1818.66] And... +[1818.66 --> 1819.66] The first message I sent to you was... +[1819.66 --> 1821.66] I think you hadn't had it booted yet. +[1821.66 --> 1822.66] Yeah. +[1822.66 --> 1823.66] Yeah. +[1823.66 --> 1824.66] Before seven. +[1824.66 --> 1826.66] Because I got to work pretty early. +[1826.66 --> 1827.66] I don't think I replied to that one. +[1827.66 --> 1828.66] Nope, nope. +[1828.66 --> 1829.66] Not till later. +[1829.66 --> 1830.66] I was sleeping. +[1830.66 --> 1831.66] I thought so. +[1831.66 --> 1833.66] I just wanted to send that message before I forgot about it. +[1833.66 --> 1834.66] Anyways. +[1834.66 --> 1836.66] Um, had tons of issues. +[1836.66 --> 1841.66] Like, I w- I could load in and then take like two steps and I'd lose connectivity to +[1841.66 --> 1842.66] Uplay. +[1842.66 --> 1844.66] So the whole game would just crash. +[1844.66 --> 1845.66] It wouldn't go like, oh, you're offline now. +[1845.66 --> 1847.66] You can't open those stupid freaking chests. +[1847.66 --> 1850.66] No, you actually can't play at all. +[1850.66 --> 1852.66] And it's not like it just closes the game. +[1852.66 --> 1857.66] The whole thing just like gray screens and then does that like, uh, Microsoft is trying +[1857.66 --> 1859.66] to figure out what just happened to this program. +[1859.66 --> 1860.66] We don't really know. +[1860.66 --> 1861.66] Do you want to end it? +[1861.66 --> 1862.66] I was like, of course, it's trash. +[1862.66 --> 1863.66] Um, anyways. +[1863.66 --> 1870.66] So then eventually I'm like, I messaged Linus and I was like, should I just go offline mode +[1870.66 --> 1871.66] or should I go online mode? +[1871.66 --> 1876.66] Like there's a noticeable performance increase when you go to offline mode, which is hilarious. +[1876.66 --> 1881.66] And I voted for offline mode because I figure they've got to patch this. +[1881.66 --> 1888.66] I'm sure that if there's that much of a performance disparity just between being online and being +[1888.66 --> 1891.66] offline, they can probably implement that fairly easily. +[1891.66 --> 1893.66] So I was like, okay, test offline. +[1893.66 --> 1897.66] And then hopefully that'll represent what people will be getting once the next patch shows up. +[1897.66 --> 1898.66] Okay. +[1898.66 --> 1899.66] Right. +[1899.66 --> 1900.66] Okay. +[1900.66 --> 1901.66] So, so we're going along. +[1901.66 --> 1902.66] It's, it's, it's kind of working now. +[1902.66 --> 1907.66] I still have a few issues, but I get over most of those and I, I get through it and I'm +[1907.66 --> 1910.66] finally like, okay, I need to finally find a benchmarking run. +[1910.66 --> 1914.66] I had planned to have a benchmarking run way before now. +[1914.66 --> 1915.66] Sorry. +[1915.66 --> 1916.66] Of course it's trash. +[1916.66 --> 1917.66] Luke 2014. +[1917.66 --> 1920.66] I had planned to have a benchmarking run way before now. +[1920.66 --> 1922.66] I'm kind of worried because I need to get all these cards done. +[1922.66 --> 1926.66] But then at the same time I'm like three quarters of these cards aren't going to work anyways. +[1926.66 --> 1930.66] So whatever, probably won't be as hard as I'm expecting it to be. +[1930.66 --> 1933.66] Um, finally loaded to the game. +[1933.66 --> 1938.66] And at this point I'm like, okay, I need at least, at least a little bit of a fighting +[1938.66 --> 1939.66] scene. +[1939.66 --> 1941.66] I mean, I need a little bit of free running and then I'll be happy. +[1941.66 --> 1942.66] Okay. +[1942.66 --> 1943.66] I don't need much. +[1943.66 --> 1944.66] Like I just need something that'll work. +[1944.66 --> 1947.66] And I'll just say in the video that it's not great because I ran out of time because +[1947.66 --> 1948.66] it was broken. +[1948.66 --> 1952.66] And a benchmark run doesn't necessarily have to be representative of the most +[1952.66 --> 1954.66] demanding scene in the entire game. +[1954.66 --> 1957.66] In fact, a lot of the time it's not because we're looking for repeatability. +[1957.66 --> 1958.66] Yeah. +[1958.66 --> 1963.66] So a benchmarking run should be demanding enough that there isn't an obvious CPU bottleneck. +[1963.66 --> 1965.66] And you're going to want to try and show some amount of variance. +[1965.66 --> 1966.66] Yes. +[1966.66 --> 1971.66] So like explosions and wide shots and close shots and lots of people and different things. +[1971.66 --> 1972.66] Yeah. +[1972.66 --> 1975.66] Like we want to get a feel for how the engine performs and then we want to be able to rank +[1975.66 --> 1978.66] graphics cards against each other by relative performance. +[1978.66 --> 1979.66] That's the point. +[1979.66 --> 1980.66] Yeah. +[1980.66 --> 1985.66] How much, how much more quantifiably more FPS will I get if I'm running a similar configuration +[1985.66 --> 1987.66] to them in this spot in the game. +[1987.66 --> 1991.66] If I upgrade my graphics card to this, that's what we want you guys to know. +[1991.66 --> 1992.66] Anyways. +[1992.66 --> 1997.66] So I found a spot that was actually not too bad and it's pretty close to the beginning +[1997.66 --> 1998.66] of the game. +[1998.66 --> 2001.66] You spawn in, I'm not going to give any spoilers, but you spawn in, you run forward and follow +[2001.66 --> 2002.66] some dude. +[2002.66 --> 2005.66] There's a fairly quick little sequence thing. +[2005.66 --> 2009.66] You run a little bit further, you stab some dude, you run a little bit further, there's +[2009.66 --> 2010.66] a little quick sequence thing. +[2010.66 --> 2013.66] You climb up some stuff, you climb up some more stuff, yada yada. +[2013.66 --> 2014.66] It's fairly straightforward. +[2014.66 --> 2016.66] And it captured the main things that I wanted to find. +[2016.66 --> 2022.66] And I was like, okay, this can kind of work, but considering how fast I found that, I actually +[2022.66 --> 2023.66] have a little bit of extra time. +[2023.66 --> 2027.66] Let's see if I can push on forward and see if there's maybe a little bit more fighting scene. +[2027.66 --> 2031.66] Because I literally just ran past this dude, poked him twice, and then kept going. +[2031.66 --> 2032.66] That's all the fighting I got. +[2032.66 --> 2036.66] And I knew people would have been like, oh, this isn't Assassin's Creed, you have to stab +[2036.66 --> 2037.66] more people. +[2037.66 --> 2038.66] So I was like, okay, whatever. +[2038.66 --> 2040.66] I'll try to find something really quick. +[2040.66 --> 2045.66] Run forward, kill some guy that I didn't really seem was, I didn't think was super important. +[2045.66 --> 2047.66] In hindsight, like, it kind of makes sense. +[2047.66 --> 2053.66] But it went into this crazy long stream of annoyingly not skippable for a lot of them cutscenes, +[2053.66 --> 2057.66] which ended up being like eight minutes or something, which if I had any amount of sound +[2057.66 --> 2058.66] might have been good. +[2058.66 --> 2060.66] But I didn't, because I'm on a benchmarking rig. +[2060.66 --> 2061.66] Test bands! +[2061.66 --> 2062.66] Yeah. +[2062.66 --> 2065.66] So I'm just like, sure, I have no idea what's happening. +[2065.66 --> 2066.66] You guys are talking, that's cool. +[2066.66 --> 2069.66] Anyways, it goes to the next sequence. +[2069.66 --> 2071.66] I'm like, oh, okay. +[2071.66 --> 2073.66] Well, how do I get back to the last one? +[2073.66 --> 2076.66] Because that's where my benchmarking run is. +[2076.66 --> 2078.66] You can't. +[2078.66 --> 2081.66] You can't go back, at least at this point in the game. +[2081.66 --> 2085.66] I don't know if maybe later on you're able to go into the thing that I'm going to not +[2085.66 --> 2087.66] spoiler and go back. +[2087.66 --> 2091.66] But at this point in the game, you can't go back in sequences. +[2091.66 --> 2094.66] You also can't delete your save file. +[2094.66 --> 2096.66] And you can't restart the game. +[2096.66 --> 2101.66] So you have your one save file and you have the furthest progress you've gotten to in that +[2101.66 --> 2102.66] save file. +[2102.66 --> 2104.66] What? +[2104.66 --> 2109.66] So for the next little while, I was very surprised that you couldn't do that in-game, for one. +[2109.66 --> 2111.66] But then immediately I'm like, okay, whatever. +[2111.66 --> 2117.66] I'll just do the super ghetto option and go delete it from either, I'm assuming, my documents +[2117.66 --> 2120.66] or app data or inside the game folder. +[2120.66 --> 2123.66] Not super likely that it's inside the game folder, because you'd lose your saves if you +[2123.66 --> 2124.66] uninstalled the game. +[2124.66 --> 2126.66] But it's possible. +[2126.66 --> 2129.66] I start looking around and I can't find Jack. +[2129.66 --> 2130.66] I can't find anything. +[2130.66 --> 2136.66] I found a save games folder with folders that were just extremely long, random strings of +[2136.66 --> 2137.66] characters. +[2137.66 --> 2140.66] And inside those folders, just files that were just random numbers. +[2140.66 --> 2142.66] I'm like, sweet! +[2142.66 --> 2146.66] Found a couple that were from today, but like I didn't want to delete the wrong stuff. +[2146.66 --> 2150.66] So I started looking online and I started tweeting and I asked people and some people +[2150.66 --> 2151.66] shared some ideas. +[2151.66 --> 2155.66] Someone was like, oh, it's file 740 or 720 or something. +[2155.66 --> 2156.66] I don't remember. +[2156.66 --> 2157.66] So I started looking for that. +[2157.66 --> 2158.66] File 420. +[2158.66 --> 2159.66] Uhhhhhhhhh! +[2159.66 --> 2160.66] Uhhhhhhhhh! +[2160.66 --> 2161.66] So I, I... +[2161.66 --> 2163.66] But they can't be high. +[2163.66 --> 2164.66] Because... +[2164.66 --> 2166.66] You can only run the game on low! +[2166.66 --> 2167.66] They keep on digging! +[2167.66 --> 2169.66] Oh, there's two jokes there. +[2169.66 --> 2170.66] Good one. +[2170.66 --> 2171.66] Ha! +[2171.66 --> 2173.66] Um, anyways, so... +[2173.66 --> 2176.64] Eventually I forgot, okay, it was supposed to be a fun thing, but I didn't know what I +[2176.64 --> 2177.64] did. +[2177.64 --> 2180.64] I found a folder named 720, but there was no folder named 720, but I found a file named +[2180.64 --> 2183.64] 720, which was created today. +[2183.64 --> 2184.64] So I was like, oh, awesome! +[2184.64 --> 2185.64] Okay, we found it. +[2185.64 --> 2186.64] Successful. +[2186.64 --> 2187.64] Delete. +[2187.64 --> 2188.64] Load the game. +[2188.64 --> 2189.64] Save still there. +[2189.64 --> 2190.64] What? +[2190.64 --> 2191.64] What? +[2191.64 --> 2196.64] Okay, so I go and nuke like every single file that's been created today. +[2196.64 --> 2198.64] Like everything I can find. +[2198.64 --> 2200.64] Just destroy everything. +[2200.64 --> 2201.64] Whatever. +[2201.64 --> 2205.64] Like, if I have to re-download a small part of the game, at least I have the bulk of it. +[2205.64 --> 2207.64] I just go to like destroy everything mode. +[2207.64 --> 2209.64] It takes a while to find everything. +[2209.64 --> 2210.64] Delete it all. +[2210.64 --> 2211.64] Launch the game. +[2211.64 --> 2212.64] File still there. +[2212.64 --> 2214.64] I still have my progression file. +[2214.64 --> 2215.64] I'm like, what the crap? +[2215.64 --> 2216.64] What is going on? +[2216.64 --> 2218.64] Why can't I get rid of you? +[2218.64 --> 2220.64] Why won't you go away? +[2220.64 --> 2221.64] Okay. +[2221.64 --> 2222.64] And then I'm like, oh, okay. +[2222.64 --> 2223.64] Someone posted online. +[2223.64 --> 2227.64] Even if you're on offline mode, maybe one of the things that keeps functioning if you +[2227.64 --> 2229.64] have internet is your cloud saves. +[2229.64 --> 2230.64] Right. +[2230.64 --> 2232.64] So I'm like, actually that kind of makes sense. +[2232.64 --> 2233.64] Right. +[2233.64 --> 2235.64] Because maybe you go into offline mode to like hide from people. +[2235.64 --> 2236.64] Maybe it's their version of anonymous. +[2236.64 --> 2237.64] Yeah. +[2237.64 --> 2238.64] But you don't want to lose your save files. +[2238.64 --> 2239.64] Right. +[2239.64 --> 2243.64] So maybe, because I'm like, okay, that's actually not a horrible feature. +[2243.64 --> 2244.64] I'm down with that. +[2244.64 --> 2245.64] Okay, fine. +[2245.64 --> 2247.64] I don't know how many people would want that to not work. +[2247.64 --> 2250.64] I mean, I'd love it if we could just manage our save files normally anyway. +[2250.64 --> 2251.64] Exactly. +[2251.64 --> 2252.64] Yeah. +[2252.64 --> 2256.64] But, or if there was like Steam where you could be like, I want to use the cloud save. +[2256.64 --> 2257.64] Yeah. +[2257.64 --> 2258.64] Sync or don't sync. +[2258.64 --> 2259.64] Yeah. +[2259.64 --> 2260.64] Options are good. +[2260.64 --> 2261.64] Thanks Ubisoft. +[2261.64 --> 2262.64] Except no. +[2262.64 --> 2263.64] Thanks Steam. +[2263.64 --> 2267.64] Um, so I'm like, okay, disable, go back through. +[2267.64 --> 2270.64] I find those old files that I just deleted again. +[2270.64 --> 2272.64] So I'm like, oh, they're cloud syncing. +[2272.64 --> 2273.64] That totally makes sense. +[2273.64 --> 2274.64] Ah. +[2274.64 --> 2275.64] Because it recreated them, right? +[2275.64 --> 2276.64] Right. +[2276.64 --> 2277.64] So I'm like, alright, cool. +[2277.64 --> 2278.64] Delete them all. +[2278.64 --> 2279.64] Load the game. +[2279.64 --> 2281.64] Save files still there. +[2281.64 --> 2286.64] So, basically in a nutshell, we're going to try and figure this out. +[2286.64 --> 2287.64] Yeah. +[2287.64 --> 2288.64] But it just might take some time. +[2288.64 --> 2293.64] And normally, finding an Assassin's Creed run is just a matter of me making sure Luke +[2293.64 --> 2296.64] gets provided with a review copy of the game that he doesn't have to pay for. +[2296.64 --> 2299.64] And he just goes and plays it because he's going to play it anyway because he's the biggest +[2299.64 --> 2301.64] friggin' Assassin's Creed fanboy ever. +[2301.64 --> 2302.64] Yeah. +[2302.64 --> 2304.64] Like, have you 100%ed every game up till now? +[2304.64 --> 2305.64] Yes. +[2305.64 --> 2306.64] Yeah. +[2306.64 --> 2307.64] So, there you go. +[2307.64 --> 2310.64] So usually, finding an Assassin's Creed run is as simple as Luke kind of having it in +[2310.64 --> 2314.64] the back of his mind while he sits and like, zombies out at his computer for four days after +[2314.64 --> 2315.64] launch. +[2315.64 --> 2316.64] You know what? +[2316.64 --> 2317.64] I'm just trying to think. +[2317.64 --> 2321.64] Black Flag, you were a zombie for about a week after launch. +[2321.64 --> 2324.64] Because as far as I can tell, that was all you were doing outside of work time. +[2324.64 --> 2325.64] Black Flag is an amazing game. +[2325.64 --> 2327.64] Have you even been tempted to touch Unity? +[2327.64 --> 2328.64] No, and I haven't. +[2328.64 --> 2329.64] Wow. +[2329.64 --> 2331.64] I've been working in my spare time instead of playing Unity. +[2331.64 --> 2335.64] And you've even played Assassin's Creed games, 100%ed Assassin's Creed games that, by your +[2335.64 --> 2337.64] own admission, weren't that great. +[2337.64 --> 2338.64] No, I hated 3. +[2338.64 --> 2339.64] 3 sucked. +[2339.64 --> 2340.64] Wow. +[2340.64 --> 2342.64] I was not a fan of 3 at all. +[2342.64 --> 2350.64] So, in the spirit of Keep On Digging, we are finally releasing the Keep On Diggin' shirt. +[2350.64 --> 2351.64] Are we? +[2351.64 --> 2352.64] Yes. +[2352.64 --> 2353.64] It's ready? +[2353.64 --> 2354.64] The campaign is ready. +[2354.64 --> 2357.64] We were supposed to have shirts to wear today. +[2357.64 --> 2359.64] I think you can get banned from spamming your own channel. +[2359.64 --> 2360.64] Really? +[2360.64 --> 2361.64] Oh, alright. +[2361.64 --> 2362.64] Well, I agree. +[2362.64 --> 2364.64] Just because that was just a lot. +[2364.64 --> 2365.64] I actually really want this shirt. +[2365.64 --> 2369.64] Oh, I am super stoked on this shirt. +[2369.64 --> 2374.64] Because the way we designed the shirt, it's not just to be used on Ubisoft necessarily. +[2374.64 --> 2377.64] You can Keep On Diggin' anything! +[2377.64 --> 2381.64] So the previous Keep On Diggin', even though we didn't use that terminology, would have been +[2381.64 --> 2382.64] EA. +[2382.64 --> 2384.64] So now we're just, it's now Ubisoft and whoever's next is whoever's next. +[2384.64 --> 2386.64] No, EA was Brofist. +[2386.64 --> 2387.64] Yeah, that's true. +[2387.64 --> 2388.64] That's the origin of Brofist. +[2388.64 --> 2390.64] That was when we started Brofisting on the show. +[2390.64 --> 2391.64] That's true. +[2391.64 --> 2392.64] Yeah. +[2392.64 --> 2393.64] Wow. +[2393.64 --> 2394.64] So all these gaming companies start our memes. +[2394.64 --> 2395.64] I know. +[2395.64 --> 2396.64] Thank you for being terrible gaming companies. +[2396.64 --> 2397.64] And Keep On Diggin'. +[2397.64 --> 2401.64] Like, I know that I didn't invent the phrase Keep On Diggin'. +[2401.64 --> 2402.64] No. +[2402.64 --> 2403.64] But did I popularize it? +[2403.64 --> 2404.64] It's blown up. +[2404.64 --> 2405.64] Yeah. +[2405.64 --> 2406.64] For Ubisoft? +[2406.64 --> 2407.64] Yeah. +[2407.64 --> 2408.64] Yes. +[2408.64 --> 2409.64] It's all over the place. +[2409.64 --> 2413.64] Because there have been some fantastic Keep On Diggin' memes and stuff. +[2413.64 --> 2414.64] Little meme things and stuff. +[2414.64 --> 2416.64] On like PC Master Race, on our own forum. +[2416.64 --> 2417.64] Yep. +[2417.64 --> 2420.64] I've seen a lot of gifs of me digging on the show. +[2420.64 --> 2421.64] Yeah. +[2421.64 --> 2426.64] So guys, if you wanna rep, if you wanna rep just the Keep On Diggin'ness. +[2426.64 --> 2428.64] The amount of hatred that I have this morning. +[2428.64 --> 2429.64] Yeah. +[2429.64 --> 2430.64] That is going on right now. +[2430.64 --> 2435.64] Show your support for Luke for the Keep On Diggin' t-shirt. +[2436.64 --> 2438.64] Oh good, we have hoodies. +[2438.64 --> 2441.64] Oh, I might have to order a hoodie. +[2441.64 --> 2444.64] Cause the Highlander hoodie I have is awesome. +[2444.64 --> 2445.64] Yeah, I know, I know. +[2445.64 --> 2446.64] It's super nice. +[2446.64 --> 2447.64] Is it the same kind? +[2447.64 --> 2448.64] Yeah, it's the same one. +[2448.64 --> 2449.64] It's the same Gildan one. +[2449.64 --> 2454.64] I wasn't sure about Gildan hoodies when we first, um, there we go. +[2454.64 --> 2462.64] When we first ordered our Highlander stuff and I just kinda ordered one hoping it would be nice and I was checking if there were better options and that was all they really had. +[2462.64 --> 2463.64] But it's like super nice. +[2463.64 --> 2464.64] You saw it right? +[2464.64 --> 2465.64] Yeah. +[2465.64 --> 2466.64] Yeah. +[2466.64 --> 2467.64] I definitely want like a Keep On Diggin' hoodie. +[2467.64 --> 2468.64] Yeah, me too. +[2468.64 --> 2469.64] I'm gonna buy one. +[2469.64 --> 2470.64] Yeah! +[2470.64 --> 2471.64] Alright. +[2471.64 --> 2474.64] Every winter season I get like a new hoodie. +[2474.64 --> 2476.64] This was last season so I need a new one. +[2476.64 --> 2482.64] Yeah, so everyone was pretty darn stoked with the quality of the Highlander shirts. +[2482.64 --> 2485.64] So that's why we're going ahead with Teespring again. +[2485.64 --> 2488.64] Cause they did a really great job of that campaign for us. +[2488.64 --> 2497.64] Uh, a guy on the forum and stuff, str underscore mape, had two shirts from, I think, one from Distant Lines and one from Teespring. +[2497.64 --> 2499.64] Both show up with little holes in them. +[2499.64 --> 2502.64] And he got both of them promptly replaced. +[2502.64 --> 2503.64] Nice! +[2503.64 --> 2505.64] Yeah, so, that's good. +[2505.64 --> 2506.64] Alright. +[2507.64 --> 2511.64] I feel like I had more crap to throw at Ubisoft. +[2511.64 --> 2512.64] Oh no, there's more. +[2512.64 --> 2517.64] Like, there's some crap going on with respect to Far Cry 4 review copies. +[2517.64 --> 2518.64] Oh. +[2518.64 --> 2520.64] Polygon didn't get one. +[2520.64 --> 2521.64] Really? +[2521.64 --> 2522.64] Yeah! +[2522.64 --> 2530.64] They have like a developer version that they can't use to actually review the game and then they couldn't get it working on any of their PlayStation 4s and then they just... +[2530.64 --> 2534.64] So they're just like, so yeah, other publications got retail copies. +[2534.64 --> 2536.64] We don't really understand why we don't have one. +[2536.64 --> 2537.64] Whoa. +[2537.64 --> 2538.64] So we're just gonna go buy a retail copy. +[2538.64 --> 2540.64] We'll have a review for you guys as soon as possible. +[2540.64 --> 2541.64] Wow. +[2541.64 --> 2542.64] Yeah, they've got a blog post up. +[2542.64 --> 2543.64] I was like... +[2543.64 --> 2544.64] Really? +[2544.64 --> 2545.64] That's messed up. +[2545.64 --> 2546.64] Really? +[2546.64 --> 2547.64] That's messed up. +[2547.64 --> 2548.64] Oh, geez. +[2548.64 --> 2549.64] And then what was it? +[2549.64 --> 2552.64] Assassin's Creed Unity, the embargo date was 12 hours after the release? +[2552.64 --> 2553.64] Um, total... +[2553.64 --> 2555.64] Actually, this ties into... +[2555.64 --> 2556.64] Hold on, let me just see... +[2556.64 --> 2558.64] TotalBiscuit made a video for that, didn't he? +[2558.64 --> 2560.64] I don't know if he made a video about it, but... +[2560.64 --> 2562.64] Okay, I... +[2562.64 --> 2564.64] Here, can I do our next news article first then? +[2564.64 --> 2565.64] Yes. +[2565.64 --> 2566.64] Oh, this is great. +[2566.64 --> 2567.64] I'm so happy with this. +[2567.64 --> 2569.64] I'm gonna talk about TotalBiscuits, the thing. +[2569.64 --> 2572.64] So, Ubisoft stock, and I actually haven't looked at it today. +[2572.64 --> 2580.64] So this is the old headline, but Ubisoft stock fell 9.33% immediately after the Assassin's +[2580.64 --> 2582.64] Creed Unity launch. +[2582.64 --> 2589.64] I mean, we are talking not inconsequential amounts of money, and I am so glad, because +[2589.64 --> 2594.64] I am a huge advocate for gamers voting with their wallets. +[2594.64 --> 2595.64] Yeah. +[2595.64 --> 2601.64] If you don't like it, not only don't play it, or excuse me, not only don't buy it, don't +[2601.64 --> 2603.64] even play it. +[2603.64 --> 2608.64] Don't even give them the opportunity to look at, like, piracy, you know, seeds and torrents +[2608.64 --> 2610.64] and try to extrapolate. +[2610.64 --> 2612.64] Because they can take those as positive metrics. +[2612.64 --> 2614.64] Yes, they can interpret that positively. +[2614.64 --> 2619.64] Even by downloading it, you can be supporting what they're doing. +[2619.64 --> 2626.64] If you ignore Far Cry 4, if every single one of you and all of your friends ignore Far Cry +[2626.64 --> 2631.64] 4, and all of their friends, and all of their friends, if you can make a difference to the +[2631.64 --> 2635.64] market books of these companies, they will treat you like your voice actually matters. +[2635.64 --> 2638.64] Because as long as you keep giving them money, your voice doesn't matter. +[2638.64 --> 2639.64] Not at all. +[2639.64 --> 2640.64] Yeah. +[2640.64 --> 2643.64] The only reason why we wanted to do, and still kind of want to do, an Assassin's Creed +[2643.64 --> 2647.64] Unity benchmarking video, and the only reason we will want to do a Far Cry 4 video, is that +[2647.64 --> 2649.64] we can warn everyone, essentially. +[2649.64 --> 2650.64] Yep. +[2650.64 --> 2652.64] Like, look at this crap, it doesn't freaking work, don't buy it. +[2652.64 --> 2655.64] We're not a gaming publication. +[2655.64 --> 2659.64] We are a hardware publication, so we're going to look at it from a hardware perspective. +[2659.64 --> 2660.64] Yep. +[2660.64 --> 2664.64] This is how well this piece of hardware handles this game, and then we're going to do some +[2664.64 --> 2667.64] investigation, which is going to take a lot of detective work in this case, to figure +[2667.64 --> 2672.64] out why this particular game doesn't run well on that particular hardware. +[2672.64 --> 2675.64] And we're going to come to a conclusion that should be fairly obvious by this point in time. +[2675.64 --> 2676.64] Because it's trash. +[2676.64 --> 2678.64] Because we want you guys to know this stuff. +[2678.64 --> 2681.64] But we're not going to be doing Let's Plays of Assassin's Creed Unity. +[2681.64 --> 2682.64] No. +[2682.64 --> 2683.64] Well, exactly two minutes. +[2683.64 --> 2684.64] Yeah. +[2684.64 --> 2687.64] In a way that you probably shouldn't play the game. +[2687.64 --> 2689.64] Unless you're very specific. +[2689.64 --> 2691.64] So we're going to have it open on our computers? +[2691.64 --> 2692.64] Yeah. +[2692.64 --> 2696.64] Unless you're very specifically trying to benchmark it. +[2696.64 --> 2701.64] So, to be clear, you know, a stock dip like this can be temporary. +[2701.64 --> 2704.64] It might not be indicative of a long-term struggle. +[2704.64 --> 2707.64] I wouldn't be surprised if it bounced back at least a little bit. +[2707.64 --> 2710.64] But it can be a warning sign. +[2710.64 --> 2715.64] And it can be, and at least if nothing else, it's going to be an attention grabber. +[2715.64 --> 2720.64] Because executives and bean counters will notice that, even if they're not reading, you +[2720.64 --> 2726.64] know, every comment in the Twitch chat of the Linus Tech WAN show stream. +[2726.64 --> 2727.64] You know? +[2727.64 --> 2728.64] Yeah, exactly. +[2728.64 --> 2731.64] Which I feel very disconnected from because I don't have my laptop right now. +[2731.64 --> 2733.64] Oh, you don't have a laptop. +[2733.64 --> 2734.64] Wow. +[2734.64 --> 2739.64] You're like a peasant of no-laptop-ness. +[2739.64 --> 2742.64] Why don't you just, here, why don't I message you? +[2742.64 --> 2748.64] Well, no, because the peasants are defined by their disbelief of PCs being better. +[2748.64 --> 2749.64] That's true. +[2749.64 --> 2750.64] I didn't mean console peasant. +[2750.64 --> 2751.64] Okay. +[2751.64 --> 2758.64] I just meant you're a WAN show peasant because glorious WAN show master race people have laptops. +[2758.64 --> 2760.64] So, okay. +[2760.64 --> 2761.64] Yeah. +[2761.64 --> 2762.64] That's really unfortunate. +[2762.64 --> 2763.64] I'm asking you to bring you one. +[2763.64 --> 2764.64] Okay, cool. +[2764.64 --> 2767.64] Okay, so let's sort of, let's keep going here. +[2767.64 --> 2771.64] Right, so it's probably going to bounce back at least a little bit. +[2771.64 --> 2773.64] I hope it doesn't bounce back that much. +[2773.64 --> 2775.64] I don't want Ubisoft to die. +[2775.64 --> 2778.64] Ubisoft has been a good company at some points in time. +[2778.64 --> 2784.64] I think they just need a, like, massive B-slap to the face so that they wake the hell up and +[2784.64 --> 2785.64] stop being idiots. +[2785.64 --> 2790.64] Yeah, let's just bring back our keep on digging lower third because we're still talking Ubisoft. +[2790.64 --> 2792.64] They're like half the show this week. +[2792.64 --> 2794.64] And it's not like we want to talk about Ubisoft. +[2794.64 --> 2801.64] I'd love for us to be, I'd love for us to just be talking about what a great game Assassin's Creed Unity is and how stoked we are for Far Cry 4. +[2801.64 --> 2803.64] I would love that to be the topic. +[2803.64 --> 2804.64] That is the conversation we'd love to have. +[2804.64 --> 2808.64] Because Black Flag was amazing and Far Cry 3 was really, really good. +[2808.64 --> 2809.64] And you know what's incredible? +[2809.64 --> 2811.64] Okay, what news did they get over last week? +[2811.64 --> 2814.64] What news did they somehow get through? +[2814.64 --> 2815.64] I don't even remember. +[2815.64 --> 2817.64] There was something really big last week that I don't remember. +[2817.64 --> 2818.64] Oh yeah, yeah. +[2818.64 --> 2820.64] They pulled everything from Steam. +[2820.64 --> 2821.64] Yeah, but no. +[2821.64 --> 2822.64] Yeah, but then it's back now. +[2822.64 --> 2825.64] There was other news though that was really big. +[2825.64 --> 2828.64] And we were like, I can't believe you were even noticed. +[2828.64 --> 2829.64] Like you made yourself notice while this was going on. +[2829.64 --> 2830.64] Yeah. +[2830.64 --> 2831.64] Either way. +[2831.64 --> 2832.64] Oh, Blizzcon. +[2832.64 --> 2833.64] Blizzcon, right. +[2833.64 --> 2836.64] Blizzcon was going on and people still heard about what the hell Ubisoft was doing because +[2836.64 --> 2837.64] they were that really good. +[2837.64 --> 2838.64] And Blizzcon was such a big deal this year. +[2838.64 --> 2839.64] And Blizzcon was huge. +[2839.64 --> 2844.64] And then now, there was just the Warlands of Draenor release and everyone's freaking out +[2844.64 --> 2846.64] over Ubisoft. +[2846.64 --> 2847.64] What? +[2847.64 --> 2850.64] How are you that bad? +[2850.64 --> 2853.64] I'm kind of tempted to pick up WoW again. +[2853.64 --> 2854.64] How are you still noticed? +[2854.64 --> 2855.64] Really? +[2855.64 --> 2856.64] Should I just not? +[2856.64 --> 2858.64] Last time you got pretty... +[2858.64 --> 2859.64] I know. +[2859.64 --> 2860.64] Last time was bad. +[2860.64 --> 2861.64] Okay, forget it. +[2861.64 --> 2862.64] I'm not going to. +[2862.64 --> 2863.64] I'm just going to repair my joystick and play more X-Wing. +[2863.64 --> 2864.64] Okay, so... +[2864.64 --> 2867.64] Maybe wait until your kids are at like a minimum age. +[2867.64 --> 2869.64] So, this was original articles here. +[2869.64 --> 2873.64] This was posted by I'm the Walrus by the way, the Ubisoft stock falling thing. +[2873.64 --> 2877.64] Original sources here were kitguru.net and finance.yahoo.com. +[2877.64 --> 2881.64] But there were also some other things that were brought up by these other articles. +[2881.64 --> 2882.64] We might not even need a charger. +[2882.64 --> 2883.64] I think it's charged, right? +[2883.64 --> 2884.64] Yeah. +[2884.64 --> 2885.64] Yeah, just... +[2885.64 --> 2886.64] Yay, Luke will have a laptop. +[2886.64 --> 2887.64] Thank you. +[2887.64 --> 2891.64] But one of the other things that was pointed out was that things are not looking that great +[2891.64 --> 2895.64] for Far Cry 4 because some publications didn't get review copies. +[2895.64 --> 2896.64] Yeah. +[2896.64 --> 2900.64] So, yeah, not necessarily a great sign. +[2900.64 --> 2901.64] And then... +[2901.64 --> 2906.64] And like with stuff like that, that Polygon post, like people are going to read that. +[2906.64 --> 2912.64] And that is going to be taken as a negative review if people are reading into it properly. +[2912.64 --> 2913.64] Yeah, I would. +[2913.64 --> 2914.64] Yeah. +[2914.64 --> 2920.64] The fact that you, for whatever reason, are not enabling as many publications as possible +[2920.64 --> 2926.64] to get their hands on this game so that they can rave about how great it is, is a really, really bad sign. +[2926.64 --> 2933.64] And I mean, TotalBiscuit's comment, I think, is awesome about the way that the Assassin's Creed Unity embargo was handled. +[2933.64 --> 2941.64] Where the review embargo was not lifted until 12 hours after the game's retail availability. +[2941.64 --> 2948.64] Which is, given the way that games cannot be refunded anymore if you buy a physical copy, or really any copy, +[2948.64 --> 2951.64] is really telling. +[2951.64 --> 2957.64] I mean, that really says something about how they might have felt about how quickly they needed to cash in +[2957.64 --> 2965.64] on the immediate launch sales before the reviews go up and people start maybe considering whether to wait for even Far Cry 4 +[2965.64 --> 2967.64] or some other game to spend their money on. +[2971.64 --> 2972.64] Not good. Not good. +[2972.64 --> 2975.64] I would lose consumer confidence basically immediately. +[2975.64 --> 2983.64] If I had a Far Cry 4 pre-order, which I don't, but if I did have one, I honestly probably would have cancelled it +[2983.64 --> 2985.64] once I read that Polygon post. +[2985.64 --> 2987.64] Because I'm, I'm pretty skeptical already. +[2987.64 --> 2989.64] There's very few things that I'll pre-order. +[2989.64 --> 2992.64] I'll pre-order stuff like, uh, Smash Bros for Wii U. +[2992.64 --> 2994.64] You would have normally pre-ordered Assassin's Creed. +[2994.64 --> 2996.64] Actually, yes, I would have normally done that. +[2996.64 --> 2999.64] I have done that for every single other Assassin's Creed launch but this one. +[2999.64 --> 3000.64] Yeah. +[3000.64 --> 3009.64] So anyway, TotalBiscuit came out and said he is not going to accept review copies of any game that has an embargo that is after the launch time of the game. +[3009.64 --> 3010.64] Which is awesome. +[3010.64 --> 3011.64] Which is awesome. +[3011.64 --> 3014.64] And, uh, and I think, I think that's, I think that's great. +[3014.64 --> 3015.64] I think that's a great way to handle it. +[3015.64 --> 3020.64] And it just, I actually responded to, I think it was that tweet or one of the related ones, +[3020.64 --> 3029.64] just because I was so blown away that you could have a review embargo after people are expected to drop their money for the game. +[3029.64 --> 3031.64] I mean, no one in the hardware industry does that. +[3031.64 --> 3032.64] No one. +[3032.64 --> 3038.64] And you know what, and you know what, John, John TotalBiscuit has, has actually tweeted me as well, +[3038.64 --> 3053.64] saying that he has no idea how we seem to kind of pull off this weird thing where our advertisers are hardware companies and yet we criticize these companies openly on our shows and in our reviews. +[3053.64 --> 3064.64] And, and somehow we've managed to take money from these companies for advertising, maintain the trust of our viewers and maintain the relationships with these companies and do it all at the same time. +[3064.64 --> 3067.64] And he was just like, how does this even work? +[3067.64 --> 3072.64] I think it's because there's a much different mentality with like computer hardware companies and gaming companies. +[3072.64 --> 3079.64] Computer hardware companies seem like infinitely humble and they'll take whatever you say and they're just like, yes, okay, next time we do better. +[3079.64 --> 3081.64] And, and that's not true of all of them. +[3081.64 --> 3082.64] No, no. +[3082.64 --> 3083.64] But that's true of many of them. +[3083.64 --> 3087.64] They just seem to be so much more mature than these gaming companies. +[3087.64 --> 3093.64] Like someone like Corsair, if I come out and I slam them about something, I'll get an email. +[3093.64 --> 3095.64] But they're not going to pull our funding. +[3095.64 --> 3098.64] They're not going to pull, they're not going to refuse to work with us. +[3098.64 --> 3102.64] They're not going to stop seeding us review samples because they value the input. +[3102.64 --> 3107.64] What a, what a frigging concept, right? +[3107.64 --> 3108.64] Oh my God. +[3108.64 --> 3109.64] Amazing. +[3109.64 --> 3111.64] Not really with gaming. +[3111.64 --> 3115.64] In gaming, they, they, they, they, they tote their marketing muscles as much as they possibly can. +[3115.64 --> 3120.64] Try to silence anyone that they possibly can that would say anything negative about them at all. +[3120.64 --> 3126.64] And then just try to slam games down your throat and then try to like, pour the DLC water down. +[3126.64 --> 3128.64] Not every gaming company is like this. +[3128.64 --> 3129.64] No. +[3129.64 --> 3130.64] Praise Gabe Ben. +[3130.64 --> 3131.64] Praise Gabe Ben. +[3131.64 --> 3132.64] Um. +[3132.64 --> 3133.64] Praise Gabe Ben. +[3133.64 --> 3135.64] Uh, Supergiant Games does really well. +[3135.64 --> 3138.64] There's definitely developers and publishers that are, that are good. +[3138.64 --> 3143.64] And there's ones that mostly seem to try to do the right thing but sometimes screw up. +[3143.64 --> 3145.64] And we have to understand and respect that too. +[3145.64 --> 3146.64] And that's fine. +[3146.64 --> 3147.64] People are human. +[3147.64 --> 3148.64] They make mistakes. +[3148.64 --> 3149.64] We make mistakes. +[3149.64 --> 3150.64] Um, but it just feels... +[3150.64 --> 3154.64] It's just, Ubisoft screw up looks, it feels like some like cartoon network. +[3154.64 --> 3158.64] Like, where they just keep falling forever. +[3158.64 --> 3159.64] It's like EA last year. +[3159.64 --> 3160.64] Yeah. +[3160.64 --> 3161.64] Yeah. +[3161.64 --> 3164.64] Where just every week they were doing something horrendous. +[3164.64 --> 3168.64] They, they fall down the hill and gather so much momentum because the hill is so large +[3168.64 --> 3172.64] that they have enough momentum to climb up the next one and then fall down and over again. +[3172.64 --> 3174.64] Like, ridiculous. +[3174.64 --> 3175.64] Stop screwing up. +[3175.64 --> 3176.64] Stop screwing up. +[3176.64 --> 3179.64] Hit a wall at some point and then just be like, no, we will be better. +[3179.64 --> 3180.64] We're gonna shut up. +[3180.64 --> 3181.64] We're gonna say nothing. +[3181.64 --> 3185.64] We're just gonna make games that hopefully people want to play. +[3185.64 --> 3186.64] Yeah. +[3186.64 --> 3190.64] If they stop talking and start working some more, maybe they can fix some of their crap. +[3190.64 --> 3195.64] I am just, I am, I gotta say the whole thing with the, the draw call issue in Assassin's +[3195.64 --> 3197.64] Creed Unity is so believable. +[3197.64 --> 3198.64] Yeah. +[3198.64 --> 3205.64] Because their whole thing, their whole defense of Unity to Ryan from PC Purr was we weren't +[3205.64 --> 3208.64] gonna dumb down the level, the detail and the objects in the city. +[3208.64 --> 3210.64] It, like, and when- +[3210.64 --> 3211.64] Every object is a draw call! +[3211.64 --> 3212.64] Yeah. +[3212.64 --> 3218.64] And, and when, uh, when, when Call of Duty, like, massively outclasses you in every possible +[3218.64 --> 3219.64] appearance aspect- +[3219.64 --> 3220.64] I know! +[3220.64 --> 3222.64] That's bad. +[3222.64 --> 3223.64] I know. +[3223.64 --> 3224.64] You did something wrong. +[3224.64 --> 3225.64] I know. +[3225.64 --> 3228.64] Like, Assassin's Creed is supposed to be the like, holy crap, this game looks good. +[3228.64 --> 3235.64] I mean, Advanced Warfare should have been taking all the headlines for crap and instead, +[3235.64 --> 3236.64] I mean- +[3236.64 --> 3238.64] Everyone's like, oh, it's pretty good. +[3238.64 --> 3244.64] You know, it's probably unfortunate that they didn't publish after Assassin's Creed +[3244.64 --> 3245.64] and Far Cry 4. +[3245.64 --> 3250.64] So they could've, cause I suspect a lot of people- because you know how it's always what's +[3250.64 --> 3251.64] over the horizon? +[3251.64 --> 3252.64] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3252.64 --> 3255.64] You never look back at what was that thing I didn't buy. +[3255.64 --> 3259.64] It's always like, okay, well Far Cry 4 is coming next, or this is coming next, or whatever's +[3259.64 --> 3260.64] coming next. +[3260.64 --> 3261.64] What can we get later? +[3261.64 --> 3266.64] I feel like if they had just kind of waited for all the people who didn't spend their money +[3266.64 --> 3270.64] on all the stuff that came before them, they could've gotten an even bigger payday. +[3270.64 --> 3271.64] Probably. +[3271.64 --> 3272.64] I doubt they needed it. +[3272.64 --> 3273.64] I'm sure they did fine. +[3273.64 --> 3274.64] They thought they did fine, but- +[3274.64 --> 3275.64] Yeah, yeah. +[3275.64 --> 3276.64] I'm sure they did totally fine. +[3276.64 --> 3280.64] But it's just, it's just like, how did you get graphically outclassed? +[3280.64 --> 3281.64] Whoa, whoa. +[3281.64 --> 3284.64] Photoshop CS6 says Linus doesn't even play video games. +[3284.64 --> 3285.64] Linus doesn't game as much as he'd like to. +[3285.64 --> 3287.64] That doesn't mean Linus doesn't play video games. +[3287.64 --> 3289.64] He's starting to a lot more lately, too. +[3289.64 --> 3290.64] Yeah. +[3290.64 --> 3292.64] I've been finding a little bit more time for it, especially on my shield. +[3292.64 --> 3293.64] Yeah. +[3293.64 --> 3299.64] Speaking of shield, actually, that leads us really well into not a Ubisoft topic. +[3299.64 --> 3301.64] Hooray! +[3301.64 --> 3302.64] Hey. +[3302.64 --> 3303.64] Hey. +[3303.64 --> 3310.64] We just announced that their Grid streaming service, and this was posted by Jesper101996 +[3310.64 --> 3314.64] on the forum, and the original source is the Nvidia blog. +[3314.64 --> 3317.64] But Grid is coming out of beta. +[3317.64 --> 3321.64] So Grid has 20 titles right now, including, actually I'm just going to fire up the Grid +[3321.64 --> 3327.64] game list here, but they've got Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, they've got Alan Wake, American +[3327.64 --> 3332.64] Nightmare, they've got Darksiders, Darksiders 2, Dead Island, Psychonauts, which is a friggin' +[3332.64 --> 3333.64] awesome game, by the way. +[3333.64 --> 3336.64] If you have a shield, and you have an internet connection that's good enough for a grid, go +[3336.64 --> 3338.64] play Psychonauts if you haven't already. +[3338.64 --> 3343.64] Saints Row the Third, Trine 2, Witcher 2, Ultra Street Fighter 4, like there's some pretty +[3343.64 --> 3345.64] great games on this list. +[3345.64 --> 3347.64] Now, what's the payment plan stuff for this? +[3347.64 --> 3349.64] Does it just come with a shield, or...? +[3349.64 --> 3350.64] Okay. +[3350.64 --> 3356.64] So the beta's been free for anyone with a shield, and the non-beta is free for anyone with +[3356.64 --> 3358.64] a shield until June 2015. +[3358.64 --> 3359.64] Okay. +[3359.64 --> 3362.64] So you get about six months of free access to the gaming service. +[3362.64 --> 3363.64] Pretty good, actually. +[3363.64 --> 3365.64] That's a lot more than a trial. +[3365.64 --> 3366.64] Yes. +[3366.64 --> 3372.64] Which, considering the cost of something like a shield tablet, and a controller, when you +[3372.64 --> 3377.64] look at the shield tablet as, oh, it's also a very competent 7-inch tablet, it's actually +[3377.64 --> 3378.64] a pretty darn compelling value. +[3378.64 --> 3382.64] Yeah, that feels a lot like the... I'm trying to remember the name of it, but those HP +[3382.64 --> 3383.64] things. +[3383.64 --> 3385.64] Yeah, yeah, yeah, the streams. +[3385.64 --> 3387.64] Yeah, where you get so much stuff with them. +[3387.64 --> 3391.64] Yeah, where you get not just value-add stuff that's like, hey, you got a 30-day trial of +[3391.64 --> 3392.64] McAfee. +[3392.64 --> 3393.64] Can I interest you in paying us some... +[3393.64 --> 3394.64] It's not even value-add. +[3394.64 --> 3395.64] It's just like... +[3395.64 --> 3396.64] Yeah. +[3396.64 --> 3400.64] Where there's real value-adds that are relevant to the people who are using that device. +[3400.64 --> 3401.64] Yeah. +[3401.64 --> 3404.64] So you get six months for free if you buy a shield now. +[3404.64 --> 3411.14] They're recommending 10 megabits per second down and 60 millisecond ping or less to your +[3411.14 --> 3414.64] nearest grid server, but they're expanding their grid server network. +[3414.64 --> 3416.64] So there's already the one in California. +[3416.64 --> 3419.64] They've added one in Indiana. +[3419.64 --> 3422.64] And EU and Asia are soon to come. +[3422.64 --> 3425.64] So it looks like what they're building is... +[3425.64 --> 3428.64] It looks like it's meant to be about like Netflix for games. +[3428.64 --> 3429.64] Yeah. +[3429.64 --> 3433.64] Now, you can say what you will about the 60 millisecond additional latency. +[3433.64 --> 3436.64] That is not going to be palatable for certain types of games. +[3436.64 --> 3439.64] Are you going to play CSGO with an extra 60 milliseconds of lag? +[3439.64 --> 3440.64] No. +[3440.64 --> 3441.64] No. +[3441.64 --> 3442.64] But you probably wouldn't have played that on a controller. +[3442.64 --> 3443.64] But are you going to play Darksiders? +[3443.64 --> 3444.64] Sure, why not? +[3444.64 --> 3445.64] Probably. +[3445.64 --> 3447.64] That's probably fine. +[3447.64 --> 3448.64] Cool. +[3448.64 --> 3449.64] Yeah. +[3449.64 --> 3450.64] All right. +[3450.64 --> 3451.64] They've also got other news. +[3451.64 --> 3454.64] The Shield tablet is getting Android 5.0 Lollipop in a few days. +[3454.64 --> 3455.64] I... +[3455.64 --> 3456.64] They're going to be... +[3456.64 --> 3457.64] They're going to be... +[3457.64 --> 3458.64] I think... +[3458.64 --> 3460.64] I was on the phone with someone from Nvidia today, actually. +[3460.64 --> 3461.64] And he was saying... +[3461.64 --> 3465.64] I don't remember if he said they're going to be the first or one of the first. +[3465.64 --> 3469.64] One of the first device makers whose name is not Google to have Lollipop on their device. +[3469.64 --> 3474.64] I mean, Nvidia committed back when they launched Shield Portable to prompt Android updates. +[3474.64 --> 3475.64] Yeah. +[3475.64 --> 3476.64] But come on. +[3476.64 --> 3477.64] We've heard that. +[3477.64 --> 3478.64] Yeah. +[3478.64 --> 3479.64] Over and over again. +[3479.64 --> 3483.64] How many prompt Android updates have you gotten for your Galaxy device? +[3483.64 --> 3486.64] One per device is usually about the general rule. +[3486.64 --> 3487.64] Yeah. +[3487.64 --> 3493.64] And then you might get an update, but everyone else has been using it for six months, nine +[3493.64 --> 3495.64] months by the time you get it, if at all. +[3495.64 --> 3496.64] Yeah. +[3496.64 --> 3498.64] Whereas Nvidia's like, on this! +[3498.64 --> 3499.64] Yeah. +[3499.64 --> 3502.64] It's actually kind of absolutely fantastic, if I do say so myself. +[3502.64 --> 3503.64] It's nice to see that. +[3503.64 --> 3504.64] It's nice to see that. +[3504.64 --> 3507.64] Especially when you're getting a device that like... +[3507.64 --> 3514.64] Talking to people that aren't you about Shield is like, often they don't really know what it is. +[3514.64 --> 3515.64] Yeah. +[3515.64 --> 3517.64] Or they're like, eh, is there really a lot of support for it? +[3517.64 --> 3518.64] Like, I don't really see anyone using it. +[3518.64 --> 3519.64] Like, I don't really see anyone using it. +[3519.64 --> 3523.64] Now, I see it around a fair amount when looking at stuff like our forum. +[3523.64 --> 3524.64] Yeah. +[3524.64 --> 3527.64] And like, within the office and like these closed ecosystems. +[3527.64 --> 3532.64] But, I got a message from someone either on the forum or Twitter, where they told me how +[3532.64 --> 3535.64] the Shield was kind of embarrassing to be out and about with because people kept asking +[3535.64 --> 3536.64] if it's a portable Xbox. +[3536.64 --> 3538.64] Sorry, just go on. +[3538.64 --> 3540.64] But yeah, just to illustrate the point. +[3540.64 --> 3544.64] But yeah, like, it's very new and it's very different. +[3544.64 --> 3546.64] So people are a little bit skeptical about it. +[3546.64 --> 3550.64] So I think it's actually really good for them that they're getting these, like, they're +[3550.64 --> 3554.64] pushing the update thing really, really hard and they're actually repeatedly getting these +[3554.64 --> 3559.64] really early updates, which is awesome because that's just going to increase confidence that +[3559.64 --> 3560.64] they are interesting products. +[3560.64 --> 3561.64] And they are. +[3561.64 --> 3562.64] They're really good. +[3562.64 --> 3564.64] Would you buy an Nvidia phone? +[3564.64 --> 3567.64] Actually, probably. +[3567.64 --> 3570.64] Because I know you're not into the tablet thing so much. +[3570.64 --> 3571.64] Not really. +[3571.64 --> 3576.64] And phones, the only reason I'm not super into phones, the only reason is because most +[3576.64 --> 3577.64] of them are trash. +[3577.64 --> 3579.64] That's a strong statement. +[3579.64 --> 3580.64] It's true though. +[3580.64 --> 3583.64] Like, there's so many that have glaring issues. +[3583.64 --> 3586.64] That you, like, know someone must have figured out. +[3586.64 --> 3590.64] And then the Droid Turbo is just not coming to Canada at all. +[3590.64 --> 3591.64] Is that right? +[3591.64 --> 3592.64] In no form. +[3592.64 --> 3596.64] My brother tweeted them and asked and they were like, no, the Droid Turbo or Variation +[3596.64 --> 3599.64] Max are not coming to Canada officially from Motorola. +[3599.64 --> 3600.64] Oh, that's a bummer. +[3600.64 --> 3601.64] So like, awesome. +[3601.64 --> 3602.64] What the hell? +[3602.64 --> 3604.64] The one phone that's like, that's super cool. +[3604.64 --> 3605.64] Nope. +[3605.64 --> 3606.64] God. +[3606.64 --> 3608.64] Wow, that's really sucky. +[3608.64 --> 3610.64] I mean, it's not going to happen with Tegra K1. +[3610.64 --> 3615.64] Because Tegra K1's power consumption is just straight up too high. +[3615.64 --> 3621.64] But if Tegra K2, or whatever they end up calling it, came to a phone, would you consider it? +[3621.64 --> 3622.64] I mean, they're not that far away. +[3622.64 --> 3625.64] They've already got the tablet 32 gig, which has LTE. +[3625.64 --> 3630.64] And they did acquire that LTE radio technology maker not that long ago. +[3630.64 --> 3632.64] So they can build their own radios. +[3632.64 --> 3634.64] I don't think it's that difficult to... +[3634.64 --> 3636.64] I don't think it's that difficult to... +[3636.64 --> 3637.64] I'd be really interested. +[3637.64 --> 3638.64] I would check it out. +[3638.64 --> 3639.64] I'd want to check it out for sure. +[3639.64 --> 3640.64] I would definitely want to check it out. +[3640.64 --> 3651.64] If they got the battery capacity right, and they had a not trash camera, I would be definitely confident enough in the rest of the phone to be like, alright, let's do this. +[3651.64 --> 3655.64] NVIDIA is one of those companies where I think the camera could go one of two ways. +[3655.64 --> 3658.64] They could either have a bunch of knowledge from... +[3658.64 --> 3660.64] Because they know a lot about image processing. +[3660.64 --> 3661.64] Yeah, that's interesting. +[3661.64 --> 3666.64] It's not like they don't have experience when it comes to image filtering to make things look better. +[3666.64 --> 3669.64] This is NVIDIA's friggin' wheelhouse here. +[3669.64 --> 3670.64] Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3670.64 --> 3674.64] But that doesn't necessarily mean they know that much about sensor technology. +[3674.64 --> 3679.64] So I don't know which way the camera would go, and that's a huge part of any smartphone purchase. +[3679.64 --> 3691.64] One thing just to note is that right now the 32 gig version of the Shield tablet, NVIDIA's on fire with this announcement here, comes with Portal, Half-Life 2, and Half-Life 2 Episode 1. +[3691.64 --> 3692.64] Holy crap. +[3692.64 --> 3696.64] Android versions, if you jump up to that one, in addition to the grid thing. +[3696.64 --> 3699.64] And those are all pretty good to play on that device as well, actually. +[3699.64 --> 3700.64] Especially Portal. +[3700.64 --> 3701.64] Portal's really good on this. +[3701.64 --> 3702.64] I play Portal on the Shield Portal. +[3702.64 --> 3703.64] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3703.64 --> 3708.64] And Shield Portable is getting Lollipop support, but we don't have an ETA for that yet. +[3708.64 --> 3710.64] So I'll have to wait, because I don't really use my Shield tablet much. +[3710.64 --> 3711.64] I mostly use my portable. +[3711.64 --> 3712.64] Yeah. +[3712.64 --> 3713.64] All right. +[3713.64 --> 3714.64] Other NVIDIA news. +[3714.64 --> 3717.64] This was posted by Big Strooms on the forum. +[3717.64 --> 3719.64] The original article is from techreport.com. +[3719.64 --> 3728.64] The GTX 960 has been found in an India import and export label data or something. +[3728.64 --> 3737.64] The record states, 4GB of GDDR5, a 256-bit bus, 993MHz core, and 6,008MHz memory. +[3737.64 --> 3741.64] It's unclear whether that is a base or a boost clock speed. +[3741.64 --> 3747.64] And the price translates to around 256 US dollars, although we don't know if that will be a retail price, +[3747.64 --> 3754.64] or if that's like an NVIDIA to their board partner price, or a board partner to retailer price, or just an invented motor. +[3754.64 --> 3759.64] Or if they're going to flip it 18 times three days before it's out, because they kind of do that sometimes. +[3759.64 --> 3761.64] Because they do do that sometimes. +[3761.64 --> 3767.64] The speculation on the internet right now is that this is going to be a GK104-based card. +[3767.64 --> 3775.64] So actually the same chip as the 980 and 970, just like we saw with the 680, 670, and 660 Ti. +[3775.64 --> 3779.64] We should probably do our sponsor spots actually. +[3779.64 --> 3783.64] So we're going to start with the one that I hopefully label, yay! +[3783.64 --> 3784.64] Fandom Glass! +[3784.64 --> 3786.64] So Fandom Glass, we love these guys. +[3786.64 --> 3790.64] For any of the viewers who have watched before, you know what? +[3790.64 --> 3793.64] The sales pitch for Phantom Glass doesn't really change. +[3793.64 --> 3796.64] So I do find myself repeating myself a fair bit. +[3796.64 --> 3798.64] But it doesn't need to change. +[3798.64 --> 3800.64] Because it's good enough as it is. +[3800.64 --> 3806.64] The only reason that we started working with these guys was that, and it's just kind of a funny story. +[3806.64 --> 3810.64] The only reason I reviewed the product at all was because the guy was Canadian. +[3810.64 --> 3818.64] Because normally screen protectors, I don't, we've only done two screen protector videos in the entire time Linus Tech Tips has existed. +[3818.64 --> 3822.64] And they've both been like, very oddly innovative. +[3822.64 --> 3826.64] Yes, some kind of real, actual, important thing that happened with them. +[3826.64 --> 3830.64] So the only reason I would even listen to him was he was Canadian. +[3830.64 --> 3834.64] And then the only reason I wanted a review unit was because I was like, +[3834.64 --> 3839.64] Okay, if this does what you say it does, I will like it. +[3839.64 --> 3843.64] But if it doesn't do what you say it does, then I'm going to throw it in the garbage and never talk about it again. +[3843.64 --> 3845.64] And he was like, okay, okay, okay. +[3845.64 --> 3847.64] Sent over the review unit. +[3847.64 --> 3851.64] And then the reason that we're doing advertising with them is because it's friggin' awesome. +[3851.64 --> 3857.64] Basically, it's a sheet of Gorilla Glass 3 that sits over top of the existing pane of glass on your phone. +[3857.64 --> 3866.64] So if you already liked any kind of the, you know, the glare, clarity, touch, feel characteristics of your phone screen, +[3866.64 --> 3868.64] it will be exactly the same. +[3868.64 --> 3873.64] It does add a little bit of thickness to the front of the phone, but it's still compatible with other third-party cases. +[3873.64 --> 3879.64] And it has this, like, nano coating on the bottom of it that actually works. +[3879.64 --> 3881.64] Like, it actually does what they say it does. +[3881.64 --> 3885.64] It's, I think you'd have to work pretty hard to try to get a bubble under phantom glass. +[3885.64 --> 3892.64] And if you apply it wrong, you can just pull it up, reapply it, I've actually done it, and it goes on perfectly second time around. +[3892.64 --> 3893.64] So, pretty cool. +[3893.64 --> 3898.64] I mean, it's, given that it's kind of expensive, it's nice to be able to reuse it, +[3898.64 --> 3900.64] because I actually had to RMA my HTC 1 and 8. +[3900.64 --> 3901.64] So I had to pull my phantom glass off. +[3901.64 --> 3903.64] Yeah, you peeled it. +[3903.64 --> 3907.64] Yep, so I put it in some Saran wrap to keep it safe, because I don't really have the original packaging anymore. +[3907.64 --> 3909.64] And there you go. +[3909.64 --> 3911.64] My 1M8 is actually back, as of yesterday. +[3911.64 --> 3916.64] And before we move into our next sponsor spot, just wanted to share my experience with that. +[3916.64 --> 3922.64] So I was a little disappointed with HTC, because the first customer, my 1M8 camera lens cracked. +[3922.64 --> 3924.64] My rear camera cracked. +[3924.64 --> 3928.64] And so rather than work through my HTC rep, I decided, you know what, just for fun, +[3928.64 --> 3934.64] I'm gonna go have the regular customer defective product experience, because it just cracked out of the blue. +[3934.64 --> 3939.64] There wasn't a single mark anywhere on the entire phone, other than a cracked rear camera screen. +[3939.64 --> 3943.64] So I would have had to, I would have had to literally take like... +[3943.64 --> 3948.64] Drop it on like a very point of a rock, but then catch it before it actually hits the ground. +[3948.64 --> 3953.64] Yeah, or like take a chisel and like whack it, or something, in order to crack that thing. +[3953.64 --> 3959.64] So in my mind, this is not something that could have been feasibly broken by accident. +[3959.64 --> 3967.64] And I see it as a design, like probably the one design flaw in that phone that I really dislike, +[3967.64 --> 3970.64] is that they used a plastic cover on it. +[3970.64 --> 3972.64] There's actual flex to it. +[3972.64 --> 3974.64] Okay, maybe not, actually it might not be plastic. +[3974.64 --> 3975.64] Okay, I shouldn't say plastic. +[3975.64 --> 3978.64] Maybe it's some kind of composite or glass or whatever else. +[3978.64 --> 3982.64] But it's got some real flex to it, once it was broken, and it has a coating on it, +[3982.64 --> 3985.64] that scratches off very easily, just taking it in and out of your pocket, +[3985.64 --> 3987.64] and gives you blurry photos until you rub it off with toothpaste. +[3987.64 --> 3988.64] This is a documented problem. +[3988.64 --> 3993.64] So I talked to their customer service, and they basically, the first person I talked to said, +[3993.64 --> 4000.64] seemed to be aware of the issue, and said, yeah, that should be no problem for it to be covered under warranty. +[4000.64 --> 4004.64] But they asked me to call my carrier to ask if they'll deal with the RMA for me, +[4004.64 --> 4007.64] because I'm in Canada, and that's the normal procedure. +[4007.64 --> 4008.64] I kind of went, yeah, sure, okay. +[4008.64 --> 4011.64] So I called my carrier, they didn't deal with it, because I didn't buy the device from them. +[4011.64 --> 4015.64] I knew that was going to happen, but I jumped through the hoop just to humor them. +[4015.64 --> 4019.64] So I called back, and they told me they couldn't guarantee anything about the repair, +[4019.64 --> 4023.64] and then it turned out that they did want to charge me over $100 for the repair, +[4023.64 --> 4028.64] even though, and the repair center was not willing to advocate to HTC on my behalf, +[4028.64 --> 4029.64] or anything like that. +[4029.64 --> 4032.64] I basically said, you guys are experts. +[4032.64 --> 4033.64] You look at phones every day. +[4033.64 --> 4037.64] Is it even possible, is it even conceivable in any way, +[4037.64 --> 4041.64] that I could have damaged the phone in this way at all? +[4041.64 --> 4044.64] Or does this seem like the kind of, because it just cracked out of the blue. +[4044.64 --> 4047.64] And they just went, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[4047.64 --> 4048.64] You have to talk to HTC. +[4048.64 --> 4050.64] So I didn't pay the money. +[4050.64 --> 4053.64] I ended up just going through my HTC contact, telling them I was being jerked around, +[4053.64 --> 4055.64] and they got it taken care of within like an hour. +[4055.64 --> 4059.64] Because that's normally the way that I get treated, +[4059.64 --> 4066.64] but I was disappointed in the way that an actual customer would be treated in that case. +[4066.64 --> 4068.64] Yeah, that's kind of sad. +[4068.64 --> 4074.64] The problem too, though, is that, like I get it, physical damage is generally not covered under warranty. +[4074.64 --> 4077.64] Yeah, but if it's a known issue, it generally is. +[4077.64 --> 4081.64] So it's a matter of whether they're acknowledging the issue or not. +[4081.64 --> 4082.64] Yeah. +[4082.64 --> 4083.64] The internet knows about the issue. +[4083.64 --> 4086.64] I don't know if the internet knows about a cracking issue. +[4086.64 --> 4091.64] But the problem is that my rear camera was scratched already before it even cracked. +[4091.64 --> 4097.64] So I should have been eligible for a replacement had I R made it sooner and it had not cracked on its own anyway. +[4097.64 --> 4099.64] So that's why I was so upset. +[4099.64 --> 4100.64] So I get it. +[4100.64 --> 4101.64] I understand. +[4101.64 --> 4102.64] I'm just a little bit disappointed. +[4102.64 --> 4110.64] I've had to deal with very few, like very few customer service for like ship out and repair stuff. +[4110.64 --> 4115.64] One of them was an Xbox 360, which was hilarious. +[4115.64 --> 4117.64] And that was actually super easy. +[4117.64 --> 4118.64] Right. +[4118.64 --> 4119.64] Because they were all red ringing. +[4119.64 --> 4124.64] So I'm sure their whole factory was just like in and out, in and out, in and out, in and out. +[4124.64 --> 4126.64] Because it was just a swap. +[4126.64 --> 4130.64] And then the other one was EVGA when I was doing my mineral oil computer. +[4130.64 --> 4137.64] And that was like the best on the phone experience with someone who was supposed to help me in any form ever. +[4137.64 --> 4138.64] Right. +[4138.64 --> 4139.64] Yeah, EVGA is kind of legendary that way. +[4139.64 --> 4141.64] I've always liked them because of that. +[4141.64 --> 4143.64] Their customer service was fantastic. +[4143.64 --> 4150.64] Alright, so let's move on to speaking of fantastic customer service and super easy to use, squarespace.com. +[4150.64 --> 4151.64] Oh yeah. +[4151.64 --> 4156.64] With their 24-7 support and their, well basically it's just a great service. +[4156.64 --> 4160.64] We love Squarespace, we love those guys, and they are on fire lately. +[4160.64 --> 4167.64] They recently introduced Squarespace 7 and it's a huge upgrade over the previous iteration. +[4167.64 --> 4174.64] So they've redesigned the interface, they've got integration with Google Apps, which is really cool for any businesses that use Google Apps. +[4174.64 --> 4179.64] Like say for example, the one that you're looking at right now, we use, can I help you? +[4179.64 --> 4180.64] Oops. +[4180.64 --> 4183.64] We use Gmail for our internal email and all that kind of stuff. +[4183.64 --> 4190.64] They've got their new partnership with Getty Images so that you can have great looking images to match your great looking site. +[4190.64 --> 4197.64] You know, the funny thing about Squarespace is it feels like some of the stuff they do is more selfish than anything else. +[4197.64 --> 4204.64] It feels like, okay, so the partnership with Getty Images is basically you can get very reasonably priced, beautiful images to put on your site. +[4204.64 --> 4210.64] But it seems like they're just a bunch of geeks who care about websites looking really great. +[4210.64 --> 4211.64] Yeah. +[4211.64 --> 4215.64] And they don't want to see people take their beautiful template and put some crap image on it. +[4215.64 --> 4221.64] So it's like, it's almost like, and I'm not saying selfish in that it's not beneficial to the user. +[4221.64 --> 4228.64] I'm just saying it seems like, like they just kind of are like, oh, they're like, don't screw their stuff in bad ways. +[4228.64 --> 4229.64] Yeah. +[4229.64 --> 4230.64] Take good images. +[4230.64 --> 4231.64] Take good images. +[4231.64 --> 4232.64] Take good images. +[4232.64 --> 4233.64] Don't pay much for them. +[4233.64 --> 4234.64] They've got new templates. +[4234.64 --> 4235.64] They've got cover pages. +[4235.64 --> 4237.64] And yeah, I guess that's, isn't that it? +[4237.64 --> 4238.64] Right. +[4238.64 --> 4239.64] Yes. +[4239.64 --> 4240.64] Also, I wanted to just cover the usual talking points. +[4240.64 --> 4243.64] So if you guys don't know what Squarespace is, it's a fast, easy, affordable way to build +[4243.64 --> 4245.64] your own beautiful website. +[4245.64 --> 4252.64] They've got only $8 a month and you get a free domain for your trouble if you sign up for +[4252.64 --> 4253.64] Squarespace for a year. +[4253.64 --> 4254.64] They've got responsive design. +[4254.64 --> 4258.64] So basically that means your website scales to look great on any device. +[4258.64 --> 4261.64] And they've got integrated commerce now. +[4261.64 --> 4264.64] That was actually one of the previous videos that I've ever had. +[4264.64 --> 4266.64] I was able to get a lot of information on the website. +[4266.64 --> 4269.64] And I was able to get a lot of information on the website and get a lot of information on +[4269.64 --> 4270.64] your website. +[4270.64 --> 4271.64] So basically, I'll just say, I'm not sure. +[4271.64 --> 4272.64] I'm not sure. +[4272.64 --> 4273.64] I'm not sure. +[4273.64 --> 4274.64] But I'm not sure what's going on in commerce now. +[4274.64 --> 4277.64] That was actually one of the previous things that they rolled out that is pretty freaking +[4277.64 --> 4278.64] cool. +[4278.64 --> 4282.64] So if you want to build a store on Squarespace, then you can rock on and do that. +[4282.64 --> 4286.64] So you can start a trial with no credit card required and start building your website +[4286.64 --> 4287.64] today. +[4287.64 --> 4292.64] And you get 10% off if you use offer code Linus and you decide to go ahead and use that website +[4292.64 --> 4297.64] for your store or blog or restaurant or someone. +[4297.64 --> 4298.64] I don't know. +[4298.64 --> 4301.64] Maybe you want to make a website dedicated to pictures of your junk. +[4301.64 --> 4302.64] Junk? +[4302.64 --> 4303.64] Wow. +[4303.64 --> 4304.64] I don't know. +[4304.64 --> 4305.64] Preferably not. +[4305.64 --> 4306.64] Please don't. +[4306.64 --> 4307.64] But... +[4307.64 --> 4308.64] You could. +[4308.64 --> 4309.64] Yeah, you could. +[4309.64 --> 4310.64] It's technically possible. +[4310.64 --> 4311.64] It's possible. +[4311.64 --> 4312.64] We have the technology. +[4312.64 --> 4314.64] Someone in the Twitch chat... +[4314.64 --> 4315.64] Yeah. +[4315.64 --> 4316.64] Quite literally. +[4316.64 --> 4320.64] Someone in the Twitch chat was like, please tell Squarespace to fix their documentation +[4320.64 --> 4321.64] for developers. +[4321.64 --> 4322.64] It's really bad. +[4322.64 --> 4323.64] I've looked at it. +[4323.64 --> 4324.64] What are you talking about? +[4324.64 --> 4325.64] For one. +[4325.64 --> 4327.64] And for two, I'm sure you can just contact them. +[4327.64 --> 4329.64] I've had to contact them about stuff before. +[4329.64 --> 4331.64] They've responded very well and very quickly. +[4331.64 --> 4335.64] So if you're having a problem with something, which I'm not sure what you're doing, because +[4335.64 --> 4339.64] I've looked at actually a fair amount of their documentation for developers, it was all +[4339.64 --> 4340.64] fine. +[4340.64 --> 4341.64] From what I've seen, maybe there's something that isn't. +[4341.64 --> 4342.64] I don't know. +[4342.64 --> 4344.64] But just contact them and it should be fine. +[4344.64 --> 4349.64] So, this is the best way I think YouTube could have possibly done this. +[4349.64 --> 4357.64] They have implemented YouTube Music Key and this is the first subscription-based YouTube +[4357.64 --> 4358.64] service that we're seeing. +[4358.64 --> 4361.64] And I think they did it absolutely brilliantly. +[4361.64 --> 4367.64] So it was posted by Raf Banayan on the forum and the original article is from officialandroid.blogspot.com. +[4367.64 --> 4371.64] And basically, it's going out of beta, so it's not like it didn't exist already. +[4371.64 --> 4379.64] It's a monthly subscription service for $9.99 a month, but it is $7.99 a month right now, +[4379.64 --> 4384.64] which happens to be exactly the same price as a Google Play Music subscription. +[4384.64 --> 4389.64] So, if you sign up now, if you happen to be a Google Play Music subscriber already, yo, +[4389.64 --> 4391.64] then you can just sign up for this. +[4391.64 --> 4397.64] You get a full Google Play Music account for exactly the same price if you sign up during +[4397.64 --> 4398.64] the promo. +[4398.64 --> 4403.64] And then you also get ad-free music, background play on music, which is pretty nice if you like +[4403.64 --> 4409.64] to listen to music on YouTube, and offline viewing of music on YouTube. +[4409.64 --> 4413.64] It's invite-only right now, and those who get an invite get to try it out free for six months. +[4413.64 --> 4417.64] If I can get this for $7.99, I'm sold. +[4417.64 --> 4418.64] Done. +[4418.64 --> 4421.64] Because I already- and even if I can get it for $9.99, you know what? +[4421.64 --> 4422.64] I will probably buy it. +[4422.64 --> 4424.64] That's actually pretty sick. +[4424.64 --> 4426.64] I really like the background play thing. +[4426.64 --> 4431.64] Yep, background play and to be able to listen to playlists on Monster Cat, for example, +[4431.64 --> 4433.64] and not have the ads interrupt your groove. +[4433.64 --> 4434.64] That would be really nice. +[4434.64 --> 4438.64] I think they knocked it out of the freaking park with the way that they implemented this. +[4438.64 --> 4439.64] That's actually really cool. +[4439.64 --> 4442.64] Music was the one to go after first, and the way that they did it, +[4442.64 --> 4447.64] enabling it to be the same price as a streaming service that they already offer that's already great. +[4447.64 --> 4450.64] I love Google Play Music, especially the curated playlists. +[4450.64 --> 4451.64] It's awesome. +[4451.64 --> 4455.64] Google Play Music is more for me than just- I feel like I'm doing another sponsor integration, +[4455.64 --> 4456.64] but it really is amazing. +[4456.64 --> 4457.64] I'm just a paying customer. +[4457.64 --> 4459.64] It's just nothing special. +[4459.64 --> 4464.64] But the way that they manage it, it's more than just not pirating music. +[4464.64 --> 4467.64] Is it the same- sorry, I might not have heard that part. +[4467.64 --> 4468.64] Is it the same thing? +[4468.64 --> 4469.64] As what? +[4469.64 --> 4472.64] If you have the Google Music that you have right now, is it the same- do you get this? +[4472.64 --> 4473.64] Yeah. +[4473.64 --> 4474.64] Yeah, okay, so they're together? +[4474.64 --> 4476.64] Oh wait, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[4476.64 --> 4478.64] This is going to be a more expensive subscription. +[4478.64 --> 4479.64] But would- okay. +[4479.64 --> 4480.64] But would- okay. +[4480.64 --> 4482.64] But it will also include Google Play Music. +[4482.64 --> 4483.64] Would that one include that one? +[4483.64 --> 4484.64] Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, good enough. +[4484.64 --> 4486.64] Yes, and then for a promotional period of time, you can get it at the same price. +[4486.64 --> 4487.64] Okay. +[4487.64 --> 4488.64] So you should buy this one. +[4488.64 --> 4489.64] Yeah, yeah. +[4489.64 --> 4494.64] But like, I mean, it's more than just not pirating music and saving money versus going +[4494.64 --> 4496.64] and buying albums. +[4496.64 --> 4499.64] It's- for me, it's all about the curated playlists. +[4499.64 --> 4504.64] Where I can- it'll be like, hey, it's Tuesday afternoon, do you want to listen to like, you know, +[4504.64 --> 4508.64] pick-me-up music or do you want to listen to like, mellow music and the I'm Feeling Lucky +[4508.64 --> 4511.64] radio is- is awesome and does a really, really great job. +[4511.64 --> 4512.64] Interesting. +[4512.64 --> 4519.64] Uh, Sharp's latest IGZO prototype sets the stage for 4K phablets, as if it matters. +[4519.64 --> 4521.64] Uh, the original- +[4521.64 --> 4524.64] I was gonna say, like, you sound surprisingly excited for this. +[4524.64 --> 4525.64] What's happening? +[4525.64 --> 4527.64] Obscure Mammal posted it on the forum. +[4527.64 --> 4533.64] The original article is from techreport.com and they have- they have made a prototype 25-6 +[4533.64 --> 4537.64] x 1600 4.1 inch panel. +[4537.64 --> 4538.64] Oh, geez. +[4538.64 --> 4541.64] That is some incredible pixel density. +[4541.64 --> 4546.64] So we're talking 736 pixels per inch. +[4546.64 --> 4554.64] That is massively more than the Galaxy Note's 515 pixels per inch, the Google Nexus 6 is 493 +[4554.64 --> 4560.64] pixels per inch, and Apple's iPhone 6 Plus is 401 pixels per inch, which quite frankly, is +[4560.64 --> 4561.64] already enough. +[4561.64 --> 4573.64] I should point out that the Droid Turbo has- I really like the display, but the issue is +[4573.64 --> 4578.64] that I don't know if it's related to the fact that it's AMOLED and I'm really enjoying the +[4578.64 --> 4582.64] deep blacks, or if it's related to that it's 2560 x 1440. +[4582.64 --> 4583.64] Yeah. +[4583.64 --> 4587.64] Because on the G3, I didn't feel like there was a benefit to the higher density display, +[4587.64 --> 4589.64] but the contrast wasn't very good. +[4589.64 --> 4590.64] Yeah, it was icky. +[4590.64 --> 4595.64] And contrast is more important once you reach a certain point than- you know, I was really +[4595.64 --> 4597.64] surprised at Marcus, MKBHD. +[4597.64 --> 4603.64] He did a collaborative thing with the Verge, like ultimate smartphone, like dream smartphone. +[4603.64 --> 4606.64] He's like, well I would take this one and then I would change this and I would squeeze +[4606.64 --> 4609.64] this and I would do this and it would have a bigger battery and all that kind of stuff. +[4609.64 --> 4613.64] And I was really surprised he picked the screen from the G3 for his dream smartphone. +[4613.64 --> 4614.64] What? +[4614.64 --> 4615.64] Yeah. +[4615.64 --> 4616.64] He's wrong. +[4616.64 --> 4617.64] Oh. +[4617.64 --> 4618.64] Well, that's one way of putting it. +[4618.64 --> 4619.64] That's a bad screen. +[4619.64 --> 4620.64] That's a bad screen. +[4620.64 --> 4622.64] I would have said to each his own, but- +[4622.64 --> 4623.64] Just no. +[4623.64 --> 4624.64] What? +[4624.64 --> 4632.64] So the latest IGZO prototype will have 11.5 micrometer pixels that will likely be impossible +[4632.64 --> 4634.64] to see with the naked eye. +[4634.64 --> 4637.64] Okay, when was that article done? +[4637.64 --> 4638.64] Which one? +[4638.64 --> 4642.64] Was that done before like Note 4 came out and stuff? +[4642.64 --> 4643.64] No. +[4643.64 --> 4645.64] No, it just went up two days ago. +[4645.64 --> 4648.64] Okay, I don't get it. +[4648.64 --> 4654.64] Okay, so that's really cool that we won't be able to see the pixels, but one potential +[4654.64 --> 4661.64] drawback is that higher density displays typically require more power to achieve the same brightness. +[4661.64 --> 4666.64] Because as you pack in more electronics dohickory, in order to actually get light through it to +[4666.64 --> 4669.64] your eyes, you have to have a brighter backlight. +[4669.64 --> 4674.64] Now, Apple seemed to figure out how to address this on their 5K iMac. +[4674.64 --> 4676.64] And that thing is so bright. +[4676.64 --> 4678.64] And they've achieved the same brightness they say. +[4678.64 --> 4679.64] I don't have a last gen one. +[4679.64 --> 4680.64] Yeah. +[4680.64 --> 4682.64] But they've achieved what they say is the same brightness as their last gen one, which +[4682.64 --> 4683.64] is ridiculous. +[4683.64 --> 4685.64] I have it on like 10% at all times. +[4685.64 --> 4689.64] I don't understand why it needs to go that bright. +[4689.64 --> 4692.64] It's just gives you like a random spotlight. +[4692.64 --> 4696.64] Yeah, I mean, honestly, I guess here, all I have to say about this, mass production will +[4696.64 --> 4698.64] reportedly begin in 2016. +[4698.64 --> 4704.64] So all I have to say about this is by 2016, battery technology better have caught up in +[4704.64 --> 4705.64] some meaningful way. +[4705.64 --> 4706.64] And I still don't care. +[4706.64 --> 4712.64] Because I would still rather have a 1080p or if you have to have a higher spec to make +[4712.64 --> 4718.64] your competitor look stupid, a 1440p panel that gives me better battery life on my device. +[4718.64 --> 4719.64] Right. +[4719.64 --> 4724.64] And better performance and better performance at native resolution in games and other applications. +[4724.64 --> 4730.64] Like I don't want to necessarily have a 4K display on something that gives me no benefit +[4730.64 --> 4735.64] and tanks my battery life and means I'm going to have to run interpolated resolutions in order +[4735.64 --> 4737.64] to get decent performance in mobile games. +[4737.64 --> 4741.64] I don't play a ton of mobile games, but I'm, it's more of a, I'm speaking on behalf of what +[4741.64 --> 4743.64] you guys should be thinking if you do play mobile games. +[4743.64 --> 4744.64] Yeah, there you go. +[4744.64 --> 4745.64] Ah, rumors. +[4745.64 --> 4754.64] R9 390X Fiji XT. +[4754.64 --> 4760.64] This was posted by ParagonX on the forum and this thing looks banana hammers. +[4760.64 --> 4772.64] May feature 4096 stream processors, so 64 compute and 256 texture units with a 4096 bit memory +[4772.64 --> 4773.64] bus. +[4773.64 --> 4774.64] Oh my God. +[4774.64 --> 4782.64] This is due to the fact that AMD is rumored to be using a completely new technology for +[4782.64 --> 4785.64] the memory on this particular card. +[4785.64 --> 4790.64] The more traditional way is we've got the chips laid out on the card and then we've got +[4790.64 --> 4793.64] contact points on the bottom of the GPU that lead out to them. +[4793.64 --> 4797.64] So that's why it was so costly to implement wider memory buses. +[4797.64 --> 4801.64] That's why we saw memory buses continue to increase on graphics cards until we reached +[4801.64 --> 4806.64] 512 bit and everyone kind of went, whoa, hold on a second. +[4806.64 --> 4811.64] This is really expensive now in terms of the area that we need for the package, in terms +[4811.64 --> 4815.64] of the contact pins that we need to create on the bottom of the, of the chip itself. +[4815.64 --> 4820.64] And in terms of the PCB design we need to lay out all those traces to all those memory +[4820.64 --> 4821.64] chips. +[4821.64 --> 4822.64] This sucks. +[4822.64 --> 4828.64] So Nvidia just bailed and they stopped at 384 bit and AMD's actually, I don't think Nvidia's +[4828.64 --> 4830.64] ever done a 512 bit GPU. +[4830.64 --> 4831.64] Was 480 512 bit? +[4831.64 --> 4837.64] That was the only one I could think of. +[4837.64 --> 4840.64] This 480 was an interesting card. +[4840.64 --> 4841.64] Let's see. +[4841.64 --> 4843.64] 512 bit. +[4843.64 --> 4844.64] Or was it? +[4844.64 --> 4846.64] No, I don't think it was. +[4846.64 --> 4847.64] 285? +[4847.64 --> 4849.64] It was the 285. +[4849.64 --> 4850.64] Okay. +[4850.64 --> 4855.64] Anyway, if Nvidia ever had one, they bailed and they started doing 384 bit for their high-end +[4855.64 --> 4856.64] cards. +[4856.64 --> 4860.64] And then now we even have a 256 bit GTX 980, which is passing for- +[4860.64 --> 4861.64] 512 bit DDR3. +[4861.64 --> 4862.64] Okay. +[4862.64 --> 4865.64] So that was GTX 285. +[4865.64 --> 4871.64] So, so it got really expensive, but in, it's in a similar, so an analogous technology to what +[4871.64 --> 4877.64] Samsung is now doing on their 850 Pro SSD, where they're not using the latest super tiny +[4877.64 --> 4878.64] manufacturing process. +[4878.64 --> 4883.64] And instead of trying to go wider with the design of their chips, they're actually stacking +[4883.64 --> 4884.64] them on each other. +[4884.64 --> 4891.64] So it looks like this technology is going to enable AMD to deliver massive, massive memory +[4891.64 --> 4892.64] bandwidth. +[4892.64 --> 4900.64] We're talking like a 1024 bit interface per chip without, hopefully, a huge, significantly, +[4900.64 --> 4902.64] much bigger incremental cost. +[4902.64 --> 4909.64] One challenge is that right now we're going to be limited to 4 gig configurations, because +[4909.64 --> 4915.64] this is, this is a Hynix technology, or SK Hynix technology, and it's only the first generation. +[4915.64 --> 4917.64] But, yeah. +[4917.64 --> 4923.64] We could be looking at bandwidth for the, memory bandwidth for the graphics card in the 640 gigabyte +[4923.64 --> 4924.64] per second range. +[4924.64 --> 4925.64] That's nuts. +[4925.64 --> 4926.64] That is redonkulous. +[4926.64 --> 4930.64] I, I, I very reportedly am not a huge fan of just rumor mill stuff. +[4930.64 --> 4936.64] You very specifically hope this one comes through. +[4936.64 --> 4939.64] That would be really exciting to see this card. +[4939.64 --> 4940.64] I wouldn't be surprised. +[4940.64 --> 4942.64] I mean, it's, uh... +[4942.64 --> 4943.64] It makes sense. +[4943.64 --> 4948.64] The, the problem that I have with rumors is if you've been around for a long time, it +[4948.64 --> 4950.64] would be really easy to fabricate a lot of them. +[4950.64 --> 4951.64] Yeah, that's true. +[4951.64 --> 4954.64] Because you could be like, these things would make sense. +[4954.64 --> 4955.64] Rumor printed. +[4955.64 --> 4959.64] And a lot of the times I even wonder if people are just like, yeah, this is probably what +[4959.64 --> 4960.64] it's going to be. +[4960.64 --> 4961.64] And just rumor drop. +[4961.64 --> 4962.64] Oh, absolutely. +[4962.64 --> 4963.64] Oh yeah, look, it was accurate. +[4963.64 --> 4965.64] Because usually it's going to be accurate. +[4965.64 --> 4966.64] Yeah. +[4966.64 --> 4968.64] Because you can look at things like roadmaps. +[4968.64 --> 4971.64] Like if, you know, SK Hynix says, okay, we're going to be sampling it here. +[4971.64 --> 4973.64] We're going to be going into mass production here. +[4973.64 --> 4978.64] And then you look at fairly credible rumors, like when the 390X is rumored to launch and +[4978.64 --> 4982.64] you go, well, gee, why would they be mass producing it if not for X? +[4982.64 --> 4983.64] Yeah. +[4983.64 --> 4984.64] You know, a lot of the time you can kind of guess. +[4984.64 --> 4985.64] Yeah. +[4985.64 --> 4990.64] Speaking of exciting memory technology, uh, this was also posted by Big Strooms on the forum. +[4990.64 --> 4993.64] Original article is from Tweaktown. +[4993.64 --> 4999.64] SanDisk releases memory mounted SSDs. +[4999.64 --> 5005.64] These fit in DDR3 memory slots and they're available in up to 400 gigabyte capacities. +[5005.64 --> 5008.64] So either 200 or 400 gigabyte. +[5008.64 --> 5009.64] Oh crap. +[5009.64 --> 5014.64] I need to set this reminder for myself for, uh, for later. +[5014.64 --> 5015.64] Otherwise I will not remember. +[5015.64 --> 5016.64] Oh good. +[5016.64 --> 5018.64] I, I already have a reminder for five minutes before it happens. +[5018.64 --> 5019.64] Hooray. +[5019.64 --> 5020.64] Yay. +[5020.64 --> 5021.64] Back to the dock. +[5021.64 --> 5022.64] Um, yeah. +[5022.64 --> 5024.64] So 200 and 400 gigabyte capacities. +[5024.64 --> 5029.64] And basically you'll just slot SSDs into memory slots. +[5029.64 --> 5030.64] What? +[5030.64 --> 5033.64] I mean, this is not a consumer oriented technology. +[5033.64 --> 5038.64] You're not going to be putting this on your Z97 Deluxe or whatever. +[5038.64 --> 5040.64] This is, this is more for servers. +[5040.64 --> 5045.64] But what it does is it removes complexity components and cabling from server designs. +[5045.64 --> 5053.64] If you had a server where you didn't actually need a ton of memory, but you did need a lot of storage, but you wanted to be compact. +[5053.64 --> 5055.64] This could make a ton of sense. +[5055.64 --> 5058.64] And you need like crazy fast storage. +[5058.64 --> 5059.64] Mm-hmm. +[5059.64 --> 5060.64] Yeah. +[5060.64 --> 5061.64] Because. +[5061.64 --> 5062.64] Maybe not a lot, because these aren't actually very high capacity drives. +[5062.64 --> 5063.64] Well, hold on a second. +[5063.64 --> 5068.64] 400 gigabytes per drive on something like a 16 dim motherboard. +[5068.64 --> 5069.64] Cost. +[5069.64 --> 5070.64] Yeah, it's expensive. +[5070.64 --> 5071.64] I didn't say it wasn't expensive. +[5071.64 --> 5076.64] And it's not even going to help that much in terms of space, really. +[5076.64 --> 5081.64] Like it's, yeah, it's largely going to be for speed. +[5081.64 --> 5082.64] Okay. +[5082.64 --> 5087.64] Well, it offers 880 megabytes per second of sequential read speed and 600 megabytes per +[5087.64 --> 5088.64] second sequential writes. +[5088.64 --> 5091.64] But the big one here is actually the warranty. +[5091.64 --> 5092.64] So it's support. +[5092.64 --> 5097.64] It's got a five year warranty at 10 full disk writes per day. +[5097.64 --> 5103.64] So the application for this looks like it's more like caching and less like mass storage. +[5103.64 --> 5104.64] Which makes a ton of sense. +[5104.64 --> 5110.64] So you could build extremely compact racks that are just designed to cache data and they +[5110.64 --> 5113.64] can actually do full flushes of the entire four. +[5113.64 --> 5119.64] So we're talking four terabytes per day per drive in this cache server that has all these +[5119.64 --> 5125.64] drives in it and is lightning fast, very responsive and has extremely low complexity and very small size. +[5125.64 --> 5126.64] Incredible technology. +[5126.64 --> 5128.64] I mean, I would have said. +[5128.64 --> 5132.64] And for a storage for, because databases will need a lot of RAM, but servers that aren't +[5132.64 --> 5135.64] going to need a ton of RAM, which there's definitely some of them. +[5135.64 --> 5139.64] If you want to cache some of your drives and you can fill those slots with these, that would be sick. +[5139.64 --> 5144.64] Because again, the reducing complexity thing, not having those extra cables and stuff, that's super, super nice. +[5144.64 --> 5146.64] And to be clear, they're non-volatile storage. +[5146.64 --> 5150.64] So they're not like memory and that as soon as the system powers off, the data is gone. +[5150.64 --> 5151.64] So they're just SSDs. +[5151.64 --> 5152.64] They just go in a dim slot. +[5152.64 --> 5153.64] That's freaking cool. +[5153.64 --> 5154.64] I want to see one. +[5154.64 --> 5155.64] Is there a picture in here? +[5155.64 --> 5156.64] Yeah, I think so. +[5156.64 --> 5157.64] It's just my screen sharing is not working. +[5157.64 --> 5158.64] Yeah, okay. +[5158.64 --> 5159.64] I'll check it out later. +[5159.64 --> 5163.64] A BMW is developing street lights that can also charge your electric car. +[5163.64 --> 5164.64] What? +[5164.64 --> 5170.64] Now, the whole idea of having roadside stations or parking stalls with electric chargers in them +[5170.64 --> 5173.64] was kind of like, yeah, okay, I guess. +[5173.64 --> 5174.64] We'll slowly get the way. +[5174.64 --> 5175.64] This idea? +[5175.64 --> 5176.64] Wow. +[5176.64 --> 5177.64] This is game changing. +[5177.64 --> 5184.64] Because, okay, the idea is not that you would have to replace all the street lamps in your entire city. +[5184.64 --> 5191.64] The idea is that you would be able to retrofit your existing street lamps with chargers and be able to monetize it. +[5191.64 --> 5192.64] Brilliant. +[5192.64 --> 5194.64] What city doesn't sign up for that? +[5194.64 --> 5195.64] They get to go greener. +[5195.64 --> 5196.64] Yeah. +[5196.64 --> 5199.64] They get to have an additional new revenue stream in the longer term. +[5199.64 --> 5201.64] Yeah, because they can monetize things. +[5201.64 --> 5203.64] And, I mean, you'll see this. +[5203.64 --> 5207.64] I think we're going to see this in obviously more densely populated urban areas first. +[5207.64 --> 5214.64] But, all of a sudden, the whole parking thing, maybe you can have like, you know, a bundle thing where you buy your parking for that spot. +[5214.64 --> 5218.64] And that also includes zapping your car for the time that you're there. +[5218.64 --> 5221.64] And ends up making a ton of sense for electric vehicle owners. +[5221.64 --> 5222.64] I think it's awesome. +[5222.64 --> 5224.64] Yeah, it's actually really cool. +[5224.64 --> 5229.64] I don't think Tesla has commented on it yet, at least not at the time that we were working on the dock. +[5229.64 --> 5234.64] But I would imagine Tesla and Musk would be very supportive of a technology like this. +[5234.64 --> 5235.64] He's probably down, yeah. +[5235.64 --> 5243.64] Anything that expands the infrastructure for electric vehicles is going to make a big difference to people who are considering buying one. +[5243.64 --> 5252.64] The only thing I can imagine Musk being against is if he looks into it and realizes that it's like, I'm completely hypothetical. +[5252.64 --> 5253.64] Right. +[5253.64 --> 5255.64] So, realizes isn't a fact. +[5255.64 --> 5258.64] I'm just saying like, if this happened. +[5258.64 --> 5259.64] Realizes that it's crap. +[5259.64 --> 5262.64] Like if he comes up with something we didn't think of. +[5262.64 --> 5268.64] Yeah, like it's bad because of this reason or he tries it and it's bad because he observed this thing or whatever. +[5268.64 --> 5271.64] That's the only real reason why I can see him being against it. +[5271.64 --> 5275.64] Because he's a definite advocate for trying to get more of that kind of stuff out there. +[5275.64 --> 5280.64] And if he can suddenly utilize all of these things in that ever growing map that he's trying to do. +[5280.64 --> 5282.64] Yeah. +[5282.64 --> 5283.64] Which is you can travel here to here to here to here. +[5283.64 --> 5286.64] If he can suddenly just go, there's all these spots now filled up. +[5286.64 --> 5288.64] Of course, we're going to keep putting superchargers. +[5288.64 --> 5289.64] Yeah. +[5289.64 --> 5291.64] Because those are going to be the super fast ones. +[5291.64 --> 5293.64] But this will massively expand your network. +[5293.64 --> 5294.64] I'm sure he'd be down for that. +[5294.64 --> 5299.64] Yeah, I'm super excited for the future of that. +[5299.64 --> 5303.64] I think this makes a whole lot more sense than solar powered roadways. +[5303.64 --> 5304.64] Yeah. +[5304.64 --> 5306.64] In terms of how much thought appears to have been put into it. +[5306.64 --> 5307.64] And you know. +[5307.64 --> 5308.64] So, any? +[5308.64 --> 5314.64] I don't think, I don't think, Musk doesn't seem like the kind of guy who gets all butthurt because, you know, someone else came up with a good idea. +[5314.64 --> 5320.64] I think if it's a good idea, he has no problem going head to head, Tesla's EVs versus BMW's EVs. +[5320.64 --> 5321.64] Yeah. +[5321.64 --> 5323.64] And he'll just try to do a better thing. +[5323.64 --> 5327.64] I think that's, I think this will happen. +[5327.64 --> 5330.64] This is the most sensible idea I've heard yet for how this could be implemented. +[5330.64 --> 5332.64] And I'm really excited for it. +[5332.64 --> 5333.64] Yeah. +[5333.64 --> 5338.64] Alright, speaking of bad ideas, Google did a phishing survey. +[5338.64 --> 5339.64] Not this kind of phishing. +[5339.64 --> 5340.64] PH phishing. +[5340.64 --> 5347.64] Which is a method of attack that actually gets you to give up your information voluntarily. +[5347.64 --> 5348.64] Yeah. +[5348.64 --> 5350.64] Yeah, by tricking the user. +[5350.64 --> 5352.64] Similar to social engineering. +[5352.64 --> 5359.64] And you know how, you know, you and I'll have conversations where we'll get a particularly stupid spam email. +[5359.64 --> 5362.64] A phishing email and we'll laugh it to each other and kind of go, really? +[5362.64 --> 5364.64] Could anyone fall for this? +[5364.64 --> 5365.64] Yes. +[5365.64 --> 5366.64] I used to work in tech support places. +[5366.64 --> 5367.64] They do. +[5367.64 --> 5373.64] Google's phishing survey revealed that 14% of people submit information to hackers. +[5373.64 --> 5374.64] Wow. +[5374.64 --> 5381.64] Google and UCSD looked at a hundred phishing emails picked out of a random sample self-reported by Gmail users. +[5381.64 --> 5390.64] The researchers also reviewed a random sample of a hundred phishing websites caught by Google's safe browsing system to further understand how the scams work. +[5390.64 --> 5395.64] These websites were all created through Google Forms, which is how researchers were even able to access the data. +[5395.64 --> 5398.64] And even the worst performing phishing websites. +[5398.64 --> 5404.64] Like, think about some of the ones you've seen where it's just like, obviously not a real website. +[5404.64 --> 5405.64] Full of typos. +[5405.64 --> 5409.64] Like, you click on any navigation on the site and it doesn't go anywhere. +[5409.64 --> 5410.64] It just leads to a broken page. +[5410.64 --> 5412.64] Like, we've all seen them. +[5412.64 --> 5418.64] Even on the worst performing, 3% of users still submitted their data. +[5418.64 --> 5424.64] On the most effective sites, as many as 45% submitted their data. +[5424.64 --> 5429.64] I wonder if this data took account for faked stuff. +[5429.64 --> 5431.64] Probably not. +[5431.64 --> 5439.64] But, I would speculate that most people aren't going to go to the trouble of even... +[5439.64 --> 5453.64] Because, okay, the tech-savvy user, unless they're one of those super tech-savvy users who runs, you know, a virtual machine on their computer solely for the purpose of opening up, you know, potentially malicious stuff. +[5453.64 --> 5460.64] You know, unless you're one of those, I would venture that most moderately power users are just not going to click it. +[5460.64 --> 5461.64] Yeah. +[5461.64 --> 5462.64] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[5462.64 --> 5463.64] Because you don't even want to go to that site. +[5463.64 --> 5464.64] Yeah. +[5464.64 --> 5465.64] That's bad. +[5465.64 --> 5466.64] You just don't even want to go there. +[5466.64 --> 5467.64] I used to... +[5467.64 --> 5479.64] Okay, when I used to work at certain shops, depending on where it was situated, so like, depending on the demographics of the area around me, I could get from, like, one a week to maybe two a month. +[5479.64 --> 5481.64] Uh, it was like .5 a week. +[5481.64 --> 5484.64] People coming in, like, oh, I had... +[5484.64 --> 5485.64] This is even worse. +[5485.64 --> 5486.64] This is just phone calls. +[5486.64 --> 5496.64] Someone called me from Microsoft and said that my computer was sending them messages saying that it was having problems and they need me to go on my computer and type all this stuff. +[5496.64 --> 5500.64] And then I'm like, oh, yeah, you screwed up. +[5500.64 --> 5502.64] It was such an awkward situation. +[5502.64 --> 5504.64] They're like, how do I get my money back? +[5504.64 --> 5507.64] I'm like, you don't. +[5507.64 --> 5509.64] Like, it's gone. +[5509.64 --> 5521.64] So, according to Google's research here, hackers spend an average of three minutes figuring out how much an account is worth once they have access and will apparently move on if the account doesn't seem valuable enough. +[5521.64 --> 5522.64] So, there you go. +[5522.64 --> 5529.64] The solution is to either avoid phishing websites entirely, not give them your data, or not have any money. +[5529.64 --> 5530.64] Yeah. +[5530.64 --> 5537.64] Oh, but then, okay, you still need to not be a doofus because the hacker then tries to get money from your account's contact list. +[5537.64 --> 5538.64] Ugh. +[5538.64 --> 5540.64] So, you can be compromising your friends and family members. +[5540.64 --> 5541.64] Right, yeah. +[5541.64 --> 5542.64] By being dumb. +[5542.64 --> 5550.64] Speaking of being dumb, gizmodo.com's article about this website, I can't remember what it's called right now, but this is just terrible. +[5550.64 --> 5562.64] So, creepy website, um, Insecam claims to feature feeds from IP cameras all over the world, including 11,000 in the US alone. +[5562.64 --> 5581.64] And, uh, Gizmodo browsed some of the feeds, finding people's living rooms, um, parking lots, porches, and even bedrooms in these feeds, and the site says that the way that they did this was by exploiting people who haven't changed the default username and password on their IP camera. +[5581.64 --> 5582.64] Yeah. +[5582.64 --> 5586.64] Yeah, there's, um, that's creepy. +[5586.64 --> 5595.64] I don't even know if I should be saying this on stream, but it's fairly widely known, and spreading the knowledge that exists might help get it fixed. +[5595.64 --> 5601.64] Um, there's certain Google search terms you can use to find, uh, open IP cameras. +[5601.64 --> 5606.64] And you can get straight up into their control panels to the point where you can move them around. +[5606.64 --> 5613.64] Like, it's crazy. I was doing, like, a presentation in high school talking about, like, internet security stuff. +[5613.64 --> 5619.64] This was a long time ago. And I did a live demonstration in front of the class and, like, moved the camera around and everything. +[5619.64 --> 5622.64] And it's like, yep, it's really bad. +[5622.64 --> 5628.64] I mean, it baffles me that more things don't require you to change the password the first time that you log into them. +[5628.64 --> 5633.64] Because anyone can be lazy. Even someone who knows better can be lazy. +[5633.64 --> 5634.64] But if you... +[5634.64 --> 5638.64] Maybe you're just spamming next and you don't notice that one of them was whatever. +[5638.64 --> 5639.64] Whatever. +[5639.64 --> 5640.64] Actually really important. Yeah. +[5640.64 --> 5643.64] Ugh. Anyway, Assassin's Creed Creator launches new studio. +[5643.64 --> 5645.64] The original article is from gamespot.com. +[5645.64 --> 5648.64] So, following his reported firing from Ubisoft last year, +[5648.64 --> 5654.64] the Assassin's Creed Creator has opened a new studio in Montreal called Panache Digital Games. +[5654.64 --> 5660.64] Panache's other co-founder, another former Ubisoft veteran who was fired in 2013... +[5660.64 --> 5665.64] Or, yeah, sorry, Panache's other co-founder was another Ubisoft veteran. +[5665.64 --> 5674.64] So, in June 2013, he sued Ubisoft for $400,000 and the rights to purchase $1666, which he was working on at THQ Montreal before its collapse. +[5674.64 --> 5675.64] Cool! +[5675.64 --> 5678.64] Interesting. Hopefully he does good things. +[5678.64 --> 5682.64] Yeah, well, based on how good Assassin's Creed is with his involvement, +[5682.64 --> 5684.64] and how rubbish it apparently is without his involvement... +[5684.64 --> 5686.64] Oh, I guess we need to... +[5686.64 --> 5688.64] Okay, so just a... +[5688.64 --> 5694.64] I have to kind of pitch this to you guys again, because Nick will give me a hard time if I don't. +[5694.64 --> 5698.64] But the Keep On Digging shirt apparently has already sold like 40 shirts. +[5698.64 --> 5699.64] Oh, that's awesome. +[5699.64 --> 5703.64] Because you guys are pretty into repping the Keep On Digging. +[5703.64 --> 5704.64] Sick. +[5704.64 --> 5706.64] So we have yet another Ubisoft topic. +[5706.64 --> 5710.64] It's just a short one, because they just can't stop, can they? +[5710.64 --> 5712.64] So check it out, it's over on... +[5712.64 --> 5714.64] Oh no, this one. +[5714.64 --> 5715.64] Oh. +[5715.64 --> 5717.64] Yeah, I know. +[5717.64 --> 5719.64] Ugh, okay. +[5719.64 --> 5722.64] My brain's gonna bleed before we're done this. +[5722.64 --> 5726.64] Hold on, I'm just trying to... +[5726.64 --> 5729.64] I'm just trying to post our link here. +[5729.64 --> 5731.64] I don't know if that link is gonna work. +[5731.64 --> 5733.64] Hey, look at that, it works. +[5733.64 --> 5735.64] So if you guys want one of these shirts, check it out. +[5735.64 --> 5737.64] I'mma spam my chat. +[5737.64 --> 5738.64] Boom! +[5738.64 --> 5742.64] Nick's like, here's one link. +[5742.64 --> 5745.64] I will do things the way that isn't obnoxious. +[5745.64 --> 5746.64] Good job, Nick. +[5746.64 --> 5749.64] And like, says what it's for, and stuff. +[5749.64 --> 5751.64] You're just like, blah! +[5751.64 --> 5752.64] Nah, dawg. +[5752.64 --> 5753.64] And it's funny because of the stream delay, right? +[5753.64 --> 5755.64] Yeah, so just out of nowhere, just... +[5755.64 --> 5757.64] Huge amounts of nothing. +[5757.64 --> 5763.64] Alright, so Ubisoft patches microtransactions before framerate issues. +[5763.64 --> 5768.64] So this is a post that has actually been pulled down already. +[5768.64 --> 5770.64] Let's just go ahead and pull this up here. +[5770.64 --> 5772.64] So this is on Imgur. +[5772.64 --> 5773.64] Doop-a-doop. +[5773.64 --> 5774.64] There we go. +[5774.64 --> 5781.64] A patch has been deployed, and the issues with purchasing and receiving Helix credits is now fixed on PS4. +[5781.64 --> 5785.64] We are continuing to work to solve the issue on PC and Xbox One. +[5785.64 --> 5793.64] 214 thumbs up from the 214 members of the Assassin's Creed team that were told to thumbs up that post. +[5793.64 --> 5794.64] Pretty much. +[5794.64 --> 5795.64] Yeah. +[5795.64 --> 5796.64] Unbelievable. +[5796.64 --> 5799.64] I just want to make sure it's pulled down. +[5799.64 --> 5800.64] When was this posted? +[5800.64 --> 5802.64] Oh, it just says 14 minutes. +[5802.64 --> 5803.64] That's not helpful. +[5803.64 --> 5804.64] Yeah. +[5804.64 --> 5805.64] Yeah. +[5805.64 --> 5806.64] Wow. +[5806.64 --> 5810.64] The rest of their Facebook is just, we are aware of the issues. +[5810.64 --> 5811.64] We are working on it. +[5811.64 --> 5813.64] Yeah, that's already November 11th. +[5813.64 --> 5814.64] So I think we're done. +[5814.64 --> 5815.64] Yeah. +[5815.64 --> 5816.64] Wow. +[5816.64 --> 5817.64] Yep. +[5817.64 --> 5818.64] It's gone. +[5818.64 --> 5820.64] That post is gone. +[5820.64 --> 5822.64] They don't want us to talk about that. +[5822.64 --> 5823.64] Nope. +[5823.64 --> 5824.64] Alright. +[5824.64 --> 5825.64] Wrecked. +[5825.64 --> 5826.64] We got it. +[5826.64 --> 5827.64] We've got not much else. +[5827.64 --> 5828.64] Not much else. +[5828.64 --> 5830.64] The Apple suppliers are apparently gearing up. +[5830.64 --> 5831.64] Hahaha. +[5831.64 --> 5832.64] Get it? +[5832.64 --> 5833.64] Gearing up. +[5833.64 --> 5835.64] That's a different company though. +[5835.64 --> 5837.64] For mass production of the Apple Watch. +[5837.64 --> 5838.64] I know. +[5838.64 --> 5839.64] It's a competing product. +[5839.64 --> 5840.64] That's true. +[5840.64 --> 5841.64] That works. +[5841.64 --> 5842.64] I think it's funny. +[5842.64 --> 5843.64] I think it would have been better. +[5843.64 --> 5845.64] Or is my humor wearing on you? +[5845.64 --> 5847.64] Oh, there we go. +[5847.64 --> 5849.64] Except that's still a different company. +[5849.64 --> 5850.64] I know. +[5850.64 --> 5852.64] It's gotta be within the Apple ecosystem. +[5852.64 --> 5853.64] No! +[5853.64 --> 5854.64] It doesn't. +[5854.64 --> 5855.64] It does. +[5855.64 --> 5860.64] Chip orders are estimated to be around 30 to 40 million units for our debut in early +[5860.64 --> 5861.64] 2015. +[5861.64 --> 5867.64] Stainless steel and gold editions will reportedly retail for prices starting at $504,000, respectively. +[5867.64 --> 5868.64] Gold. +[5868.64 --> 5869.64] Oh. +[5869.64 --> 5874.64] The Lenovo S90 is the most ridiculous phone I think I've ever seen. +[5874.64 --> 5876.64] Speaking of patent trolling. +[5876.64 --> 5877.64] Oh no. +[5877.64 --> 5884.64] If anyone was gonna, if Apple was gonna go after anyone about anything, this, oh right, +[5884.64 --> 5886.64] my screen sharing isn't working. +[5886.64 --> 5887.64] Right. +[5887.64 --> 5888.64] Bloody balls. +[5888.64 --> 5889.64] Right. +[5889.64 --> 5893.64] This should've been, this should've been it. +[5893.64 --> 5896.64] Because this is absolutely brutal. +[5896.64 --> 5899.64] Here we go. +[5899.64 --> 5902.64] On the left, the iPhone 6. +[5902.64 --> 5905.64] On the right, the Lenovo S90. +[5905.64 --> 5906.64] Wow. +[5906.64 --> 5907.64] On the bottom, the iPhone 6. +[5907.64 --> 5908.64] No way. +[5908.64 --> 5911.64] On the top, the Lenovo S90. +[5911.64 --> 5913.64] They even copied the promotional images. +[5913.64 --> 5919.64] I mean, the antenna band is the same. +[5919.64 --> 5920.64] Wow. +[5920.64 --> 5921.64] Wait. +[5921.64 --> 5922.64] Are those different? +[5922.64 --> 5923.64] Those are different! +[5923.64 --> 5924.64] Oh no. +[5924.64 --> 5925.64] That's not good. +[5925.64 --> 5926.64] Isn't that horrible? +[5926.64 --> 5939.64] Apparently, this phone is not gonna be available in all regions, and I'm guessing this has +[5939.64 --> 5943.64] to do with that Lenovo knows they have no ground to stand on. +[5943.64 --> 5947.64] If they brought this thing to the US, there would be a sales embargo like that. +[5947.64 --> 5948.64] Oh yeah. +[5948.64 --> 5949.64] That's... +[5949.64 --> 5950.64] That's... +[5950.64 --> 5951.64] That's really bad. +[5951.64 --> 5953.64] Looks like it's a China only, China only design. +[5953.64 --> 5954.64] Not surprising. +[5954.64 --> 5956.64] This was posted by Shadow Captain on the forum, though. +[5956.64 --> 5958.64] I tweeted this out earlier this week. +[5958.64 --> 5962.64] Or rather, I posted it on Facebook, because I thought that was hilarious. +[5962.64 --> 5965.64] Like, just embarrassingly blatant copying. +[5965.64 --> 5966.64] That's funny. +[5966.64 --> 5969.64] Alright, so I think that's pretty much it. +[5969.64 --> 5972.64] There's only one other thing that I wanted to call out. +[5972.64 --> 5974.64] Um, we did a couple live streams. +[5974.64 --> 5978.64] If you guys are interested in programming, so becoming a coder, we actually did a number +[5978.64 --> 5979.64] of live streams. +[5979.64 --> 5983.64] They were sponsored by Modus, the same guys that we partnered with for Geek Stakes, uh, +[5983.64 --> 5986.64] earlier this year, where they gave away a bunch of really cool stuff. +[5986.64 --> 5990.64] They're a, uh, they're a placement firm for coders, so basically they work with companies +[5990.64 --> 5993.64] that need coders, and coders who need placements, and they... +[5993.64 --> 5994.64] Companies. +[5994.64 --> 5996.64] ...connect them. +[5996.64 --> 5997.64] Wow. +[5997.64 --> 5999.64] Um, not as aggressively as that. +[5999.64 --> 6000.64] They're, like, pretty nice about it. +[6000.64 --> 6003.64] They're a little bit more considerate of each other's needs. +[6003.64 --> 6007.64] Yeah, so anyway, they sponsored a series of interviews where we took some folks from +[6007.64 --> 6014.64] Code School, which is, um, a video, a video tutorial online, uh, online site where you can +[6014.64 --> 6017.64] learn coding in a fun and engaging way. +[6017.64 --> 6020.64] And they had a few of those folks come and interview with us about, sort of, how to, +[6020.64 --> 6021.64] how to become a coder. +[6021.64 --> 6024.64] And of particular interest is number two. +[6024.64 --> 6028.64] Um, that one was really excellent, especially if you know any females who are thinking about +[6028.64 --> 6032.64] programming, because she talked a little bit about what it's like as a female learning +[6032.64 --> 6035.64] to program and being involved in the developer community. +[6035.64 --> 6037.64] I thought that was really, uh, I thought that was really, really cool. +[6037.64 --> 6042.64] And actually, our third, our third interviewee was, um, was really cool as well, because a +[6042.64 --> 6046.64] lot of what we talked to him about was not sitting in front of your computer. +[6046.64 --> 6052.64] You know, finding inspiration for your programming projects in the real world by being a real +[6052.64 --> 6053.64] person and doing real things. +[6053.64 --> 6058.64] Especially stuff, um, like apps, or if you want to build a, if you want to build a program +[6058.64 --> 6063.64] which is going to solve someone's real world problem, you probably need to get off your +[6063.64 --> 6065.64] butt and go figure out what that problem is. +[6065.64 --> 6073.64] Because we see a lot of, uh, we see a lot of, a lot of solutions that are to problems nobody +[6073.64 --> 6074.64] has. +[6074.64 --> 6075.64] Yeah. +[6075.64 --> 6076.64] Yeah. +[6076.64 --> 6077.64] Yeah. +[6077.64 --> 6081.64] Which is great if you like have a different job and you're just solving your own solutions +[6081.64 --> 6082.64] that other people might not have. +[6082.64 --> 6083.64] That's awesome. +[6083.64 --> 6085.64] That's a really good way to program. +[6085.64 --> 6089.64] And actually most programmers that I know just do that because they'll have other jobs +[6089.64 --> 6091.64] and they'll program their own solutions to stuff. +[6091.64 --> 6096.64] Um, but if you want to like make your job doing stuff like apps for phones, you probably +[6096.64 --> 6098.64] need to figure out stuff to go to you. +[6098.64 --> 6099.64] Huh. +[6099.64 --> 6100.64] Look at this. +[6100.64 --> 6101.64] Okay. +[6101.64 --> 6104.64] Well, we've got one more, we've got one more news item. +[6104.64 --> 6105.64] Hi Linus. +[6105.64 --> 6109.64] I'm sure you saw some news floating around today about statements made by Richard Huddy +[6109.64 --> 6110.64] in regards to DirectX 12. +[6110.64 --> 6115.64] I wanted to provide comment from AMD to give some context around what has been said thus +[6115.64 --> 6116.64] far. +[6116.64 --> 6119.64] There have been reports based on a video of Richard Huddy of AMD making speculative comments +[6119.64 --> 6121.64] about DirectX 12 support on versions of Windows. +[6121.64 --> 6123.64] Richard Huddy does not speak for Microsoft. +[6123.64 --> 6127.64] He was unfortunately spec, speculating for Microsoft publication of key dates and milestones +[6127.64 --> 6130.64] for Windows 7 lifecycle and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. +[6130.64 --> 6131.64] Okay, that's not very interesting. +[6131.64 --> 6132.64] Never mind. +[6132.64 --> 6133.64] Boring email. +[6133.64 --> 6134.64] Okay. +[6134.64 --> 6135.64] Well, I think that's pretty much it. +[6135.64 --> 6136.64] No longer interesting. +[6136.64 --> 6137.64] Goodbye. +[6137.64 --> 6138.64] All right. +[6138.64 --> 6142.64] So, yeah, I think that's pretty much it. +[6142.64 --> 6145.64] Thank you guys for tuning into the WAN show. +[6145.64 --> 6148.64] We'll see you again next week. +[6148.64 --> 6149.64] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[6149.64 --> 6151.64] And thank you also to so many of you for tuning in. +[6151.64 --> 6152.64] We had almost 6,000 viewers today. +[6152.64 --> 6153.64] We had over 6,000 viewers. +[6153.64 --> 6154.64] Did we? +[6154.64 --> 6155.64] At one point. +[6155.64 --> 6157.64] Not for a huge amount of time, but we did. +[6157.64 --> 6160.64] Well, you guys are awesome and we will see you. +[6160.64 --> 6161.64] See you. diff --git a/The WAN Show - Nexus 6 and 9, iPad Air 2, iMac 27in 5K - October 17, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show -

supposed to start on time. +[6.00 --> 14.00] In fact, I've been in here for over an hour doing my test call with our special guest today, +[14.00 --> 19.00] doing my, I don't know, whatever else it is that I do to prepare for the show. +[19.00 --> 27.00] But, you know, it's funny because it feels like sometimes the more ahead of schedule you are, +[27.00 --> 30.00] the more time you'll waste thinking, +[30.00 --> 36.00] Ah, it's okay, I got lots of time, no big deal, everything's fine, +[36.00 --> 38.00] and then it's 4.30 and you're like, +[38.00 --> 44.00] Oh yeah, I forgot to record the intro where I intro the topics of the show today, +[44.00 --> 49.00] and I forgot to, oh, you know, actually check and make sure that your special guest Paul +[49.00 --> 52.00] from Paul's Hardware, formerly Newegg TV, +[52.00 --> 59.00] is actually using the microphone that he's actually going to use for the guest segment. +[59.00 --> 64.00] Because right now, we just have a super-de-duper silent guest over there +[64.00 --> 70.00] who has two microphones, one on his desk, and one on his face, +[70.00 --> 73.00] and then actually another one on his table. +[73.00 --> 77.00] He has many microphones, none of which appear to actually do anything for the moment. +[77.00 --> 83.00] So, we're going to go through the super-de-duper special call-out topics today. +[83.00 --> 90.00] First up is Apple's event, the so-called October 2014 event that happened yesterday, +[90.00 --> 96.00] and included all the most amazing, unbelievable, magical, revolutionary technologies +[96.00 --> 97.00] that you can possibly imagine. +[97.00 --> 101.00] So basically, smaller, thinner, better battery life, more powerful, +[101.00 --> 103.00] but basically the same stuff. +[103.00 --> 108.00] Then, also, Google announces the Nexus's 6 and 9, +[108.00 --> 111.00] which are... I'll let you guess. +[111.00 --> 113.00] Which one's a phone and which one's a tablet? +[113.00 --> 117.00] We don't know, because Nexus's are just... they're like this weird... +[117.00 --> 121.00] I don't know, whatever, I've lost the word. +[121.00 --> 126.00] The point is, we're getting a phone and a tablet, and they're going to be good. +[126.00 --> 130.00] And, um, one thing that's kind of missing, particularly on the phone side, +[130.00 --> 136.00] is usually with a Nexus device, it's all about the, sort of the cheap bang for the buck-ness, +[136.00 --> 138.00] and that doesn't seem to be happening this time. +[138.00 --> 144.00] Also in the news this week, Ubisoft just keeps on digging, don't they? +[144.00 --> 148.00] A Redditor, actually, member of the PC Master Race subreddit, +[148.00 --> 152.00] had a presentation at his school. +[152.00 --> 154.00] And, uh... +[154.00 --> 159.00] Wow, yeah, a couple of Ubisoft representatives there said some stuff +[159.00 --> 162.00] that is going to light the internet on fire yet again. +[162.00 --> 165.00] It's like Ubisoft wants to burn down the whole internet, +[165.00 --> 167.00] and that's the objective here. +[167.00 --> 170.00] Finally, Netflix raises prices on 4K streams. +[170.00 --> 172.00] That was a bit of a cop-out topic. +[172.00 --> 175.00] I actually didn't try that hard to find another one that was amazing, +[175.00 --> 178.00] because we are going to have a lot to talk about this week, regardless. +[178.00 --> 183.00] At least I'll talk, and Paul will listen, because I don't think he can talk yet. +[183.00 --> 185.00] Paul, you got that working over there? +[187.00 --> 188.00] Pfft! +[188.00 --> 190.00] Let's just roll the intro. +[190.00 --> 215.00] Ah yeah, we got sponsors today, guys! +[215.00 --> 216.00] We got Squarespace. +[216.00 --> 222.10] Squarespace.com slash Linus 10% off with the offer code Linus. +[224.12 --> 230.84] Also, we got 5-4 Club back sponsoring this week's episode with a special offer. +[231.06 --> 233.50] One that actually looks pretty darn compelling. +[234.00 --> 237.60] Last time around, they were slipping cash into people's packages. +[237.92 --> 241.62] The kind of thing that's normally only acceptable at certain establishments. +[241.62 --> 245.16] This time around, they've got a whole other thing going on. +[245.16 --> 249.60] And I'll give you the details about that later on in the show. +[249.96 --> 252.28] So hopefully Paul is back with us. +[252.38 --> 253.22] Paul, you good? +[253.82 --> 254.98] I muted nothing. +[255.46 --> 256.40] Oh, that's right. +[256.44 --> 257.62] I did mute you, didn't I? +[257.78 --> 259.08] Oh, there's our problem. +[259.22 --> 259.48] All right. +[259.56 --> 264.08] Well, let's open up the volume mixer and see if Paul is functioning over there. +[265.66 --> 267.52] Can you hear me now? +[267.66 --> 268.88] I can hear you now. +[268.94 --> 273.04] Wow, it's amazing how changing the volume mixer works over there. +[273.04 --> 275.58] So, Twitch chat, please feel free. +[275.68 --> 280.12] Let me know if Paul is an appropriate volume because he's going to be with us pretty much +[280.12 --> 281.14] for the rest of the show. +[281.26 --> 287.54] I feel like I kind of owe him one after we kicked him off of the guest segment a few weeks +[287.54 --> 292.70] back after pretty unceremoniously after like, what, six minutes or something like that? +[292.70 --> 297.18] Well, I think I can understand from a viewer's perspective if it's affecting the quality of +[297.18 --> 297.68] the stream. +[297.98 --> 302.14] You gotta, you gotta, you know, sometimes you gotta make some sacrifices. +[302.62 --> 305.80] Yeah, and I'm definitely gonna sacrifice you before me. +[305.94 --> 307.22] So there's that. +[307.42 --> 311.52] But note, note, you can see this week, no problem. +[311.74 --> 317.44] So now we're gonna have Windows Task Manager replacing Paul instead of having Paul. +[317.44 --> 323.28] We'll just have the Task Manager showing off how our CPU usage is now in the 35 to 60% +[323.28 --> 331.76] range where last time we had Paul on, his presence was so powerful that he overloaded my system. +[332.10 --> 333.42] Actually, I've upgraded it now, so. +[333.50 --> 334.92] Well, Kyle was here too. +[335.10 --> 336.26] He might have affected that. +[336.56 --> 340.04] Well, we'll see what kind of effect Kyle has because he's going to be joining us in a +[340.04 --> 340.52] little bit, correct? +[340.64 --> 341.04] That's true. +[341.22 --> 343.92] Yes, he should be appearing at my door at any moment. +[344.04 --> 346.38] So I'll have to jump up and get him really quick. +[346.38 --> 349.34] Um, he said he was on his way, maybe 10 minutes, so. +[349.58 --> 349.94] Fantastic. +[350.34 --> 354.16] All right, well, why don't we jump right into our first topic here today then? +[354.28 --> 354.96] Oh, you know what? +[354.98 --> 355.70] I just realized. +[355.84 --> 359.02] I'm not sure if they're going to be able to hear you when I switch to screen sharing +[359.02 --> 360.86] on my computer here, but, uh. +[360.92 --> 361.12] We'll do. +[361.40 --> 362.32] We'll do our best with it. +[362.54 --> 368.24] So this was originally posted on the forum by Lord Kitty and the source is a, uh, a Reddit +[368.24 --> 371.26] post in the PC Master Race subreddit here. +[371.26 --> 372.98] So I'm just going to go ahead. +[373.06 --> 381.44] I'm going to add the, uh, the formerly of Newegg TV crew to, uh, when we discuss these +[381.44 --> 381.62] things. +[381.66 --> 381.98] There you go. +[382.00 --> 383.40] I'll just chuck you guys up in the corner there. +[383.40 --> 389.82] And basically there was a presentation at a member of the PC Master Race subreddit's +[389.82 --> 393.14] school where some Ubisoft folks came in. +[393.20 --> 396.98] In this case, it was a game architect, an online programmer, and an HR representative. +[397.54 --> 399.36] And they gave this presentation. +[399.36 --> 402.26] And then there was some time for open Q&A. +[402.26 --> 411.62] And so, uh, this, uh, this Redditor started to source questions from the subreddit and started +[411.62 --> 414.98] to ask some, well, you know, some of those questions that we've all got. +[415.06 --> 417.52] Like, what's happening to 60 FPS? +[417.90 --> 420.02] And why exactly is this happening? +[420.12 --> 426.14] So when he asked about the industry moving away from 60 frames per second, the game architect +[426.14 --> 429.82] blamed settling for 30 FPS on limitations. +[429.82 --> 436.34] Which is, uh, not in line with that whole cinematic line that we've been getting from, +[436.34 --> 437.92] you know, PR representatives. +[438.04 --> 438.70] Is it, Paul? +[439.20 --> 440.90] Not, not quite exactly. +[441.00 --> 446.26] But I, I think the main, the, my first takeaway from this story is, is it's fantastic that +[446.26 --> 451.96] Reddit has like fingers or tendrils spread out so, you know, so much that anywhere there +[451.96 --> 455.18] happens to be a discussion like this going on, there's going to be somebody there like +[455.18 --> 456.40] immediately posting it to Reddit. +[456.54 --> 458.34] That's just, that's just good to know. +[458.34 --> 458.46] Yeah. +[458.76 --> 461.78] Because I, I think Reddit is a, is a force for good for the most part. +[462.24 --> 462.78] For the most part. +[463.66 --> 466.20] For the most, depends what, which subreddits you get. +[466.20 --> 466.84] They're a force. +[467.06 --> 470.78] I would call them chaotic neutral, but maybe leaning towards good. +[470.86 --> 471.82] Definitely chaotic. +[472.64 --> 477.42] Well, we're getting off topic here, but that depends on your view of mankind entirely, doesn't +[477.42 --> 477.60] it? +[478.06 --> 478.32] Okay. +[478.32 --> 479.54] We'll, we'll, we'll come back to that. +[479.54 --> 485.10] But the main, the main point here, I think is, is that there should never be a limitation +[485.10 --> 490.12] on software simply as a result of one company feeling that they can either make more money +[490.12 --> 497.52] for it from it or, or reduce a competing platform's ability to perform by comparison. +[497.52 --> 499.44] And, and there's absolutely no reason for it. +[499.52 --> 504.78] People, people do PC gaming because they know they can build a system and they can get performance +[504.78 --> 508.84] that's in line with what, you know, the type of system that they build and the amount of +[508.84 --> 509.48] money they invest. +[509.68 --> 515.84] And a company artificially making a limitation just so people can't argue that, oh, well, +[515.84 --> 519.64] on PC at least I can get 60 frames per second or 120 frames per second. +[519.64 --> 521.90] And, um, it's just not right. +[521.90 --> 526.64] Like, which brings us to sort of the next thing the game architect said, and that was +[526.64 --> 529.44] that, um, sort of there, it was implied. +[529.80 --> 534.46] And this is the other problem with Reddit sometimes is a Redditor and, and, you know, +[534.50 --> 536.80] I love the anonymity of the internet as much as anyone. +[537.00 --> 538.96] So I have a love hate relationship with it. +[539.20 --> 540.80] A Redditor can be anyone. +[541.12 --> 545.94] And so when they say that the guy at the presentation implied something, well, that's the interpretation +[545.94 --> 551.36] of that particular person, unless there were, you know, 50 people in the audience that all +[551.36 --> 553.46] 100% agree that that's exactly what happened. +[553.58 --> 559.66] But anyway, this post says that they implied that they're being pressured by the console +[559.66 --> 562.74] makers to limit games to 30 FPS. +[563.38 --> 569.92] And it was also, when asked about Watch Dogs, the programmer mentioned that just before they +[569.92 --> 573.98] release a game, they have to send a copy to the console manufacturers who have the final +[573.98 --> 578.80] say on what to keep and what to throw away before the game is made. +[579.56 --> 584.28] Why should console manufacturers have any say in what does or does not go into the PC +[584.28 --> 585.18] version of a game? +[585.40 --> 588.68] Like, that's, that's, that's the problem right there. +[588.82 --> 593.84] Like, they shouldn't have to green light what people can do on a, like, does, does Sony +[593.84 --> 598.00] have to go and approve what can go in the Microsoft version of the game or vice versa? +[598.20 --> 599.18] I don't think so. +[599.22 --> 600.42] Now that would be a good one. +[600.42 --> 607.08] It'd be an interesting conversation to, like, be a fly on the wall for it, probably. +[608.28 --> 610.98] So, basically, basically that's it. +[611.04 --> 615.60] And then the Redditor also posted that at the end of this whole conversation about the, +[615.66 --> 621.68] you know, the negative response to locking Assassin's Creed Unity to 30 FPS, you know, +[621.70 --> 626.62] he commented on the console limitations, the choice between graphical fidelity and smoothness, +[626.62 --> 633.12] and also said, our eyes can't see past 24 FPS anyway, and then apparently gave a wink. +[633.24 --> 640.06] So, I, I, I don't know what's going on at Ubisoft, but it really feels like they have a civil war +[640.06 --> 645.92] over there right now between the people internally who feel like they should be building the best +[645.92 --> 651.10] thing that they can, and the people internally, probably more along the bean counter lines, +[651.10 --> 656.72] who feel they should do whatever is going to make them the best, most amount of money, +[656.82 --> 661.64] whether that is through a partnership with a console maker, or whether that is through +[661.64 --> 667.56] selling more copies of the console version and making sure that the console buyer is appeased, +[667.60 --> 670.76] because that's an angle that I think a lot of people aren't considering. +[670.76 --> 674.82] Everyone kind of goes, oh, well, they're in bed with Sony, and they're in bed with Microsoft +[674.82 --> 681.04] to limit the PC version, and we saw that with Watch Dogs. Ubisoft can deny it all they want, +[681.12 --> 686.38] but pretty much, we know that's what happened. But something that they're probably not considering +[686.38 --> 694.96] is that console maker aside, the console gamer is not going to want to see, like, +[695.32 --> 701.50] when there's, when there are subtle differences in image quality, you know how the console PC, +[701.50 --> 706.28] you know, flame war comment thing that happens. Anytime any of this crap comes up, +[706.64 --> 710.30] the console gamers are going to try to say, oh, well, it doesn't look that different. +[710.60 --> 716.02] What if it did look that different? How would they feel about their purchase? How would they feel about +[716.02 --> 720.70] buying more games for that console? Because not every console player is going to instantly turn +[720.70 --> 725.36] into a PC gamer if they feel disenfranchised about console gaming. +[725.78 --> 730.22] Well, it definitely makes the PC gaming argument a lot more compelling if that's the case, +[730.22 --> 735.02] but I mean, the other thing about this most recent generation of consoles that came out +[735.02 --> 742.14] is they are not nearly as overpowered compared to, like, PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 when they came out. +[742.30 --> 747.80] So that also, to me, says that whereas earlier versions of the consoles, +[747.98 --> 751.40] they took a pretty big loss on selling the hardware every time, +[751.98 --> 756.86] it is probably less of that because the hardware they're using in there is really not as expensive. +[756.86 --> 764.62] So that also provides a more compelling reason to deter people from going into PC gaming and buying the consoles +[764.62 --> 770.22] is because they're not, I mean, I can't say this for sure, but I would assume that they're not necessarily +[770.22 --> 773.38] taking as much of a loss on the console hardware as they used to. +[773.72 --> 774.98] No, no, definitely not. +[775.40 --> 779.64] I've got another interesting point here that's kind of hidden in the notes on this topic, +[779.76 --> 781.94] but I thought it was an interesting point of discussion. +[781.94 --> 789.86] So, Assassin's Creed Unity is going to have 8 hours of DLC before the game is even close to release, +[790.26 --> 794.26] bringing the total cost, if you want to go for, like, a Season's Pass pre-order, +[794.76 --> 802.50] to $90 if you want to count all the content created before release as release content, +[802.62 --> 805.52] even though you actually have to pay extra for some of it. +[805.52 --> 809.16] And I think we should probably do a Twitter blitz on this, +[809.30 --> 815.42] but do you think, given that a game was going to cost you $59.99, +[816.58 --> 817.50] actually, you know what? +[817.64 --> 820.08] We should go back and find some old games. +[820.18 --> 823.10] What was the release price of StarCraft 1? +[823.30 --> 824.14] Like, Paul, do you remember? +[825.14 --> 828.06] StarCraft 1, I believe, was probably $40. +[828.06 --> 832.98] That's when I think the most you could charge for a PC game, +[833.08 --> 834.60] even a AAA title, was $40. +[835.80 --> 840.94] It might have been as low as $30, but I'm going to go with $40. +[842.04 --> 846.86] Because I seem to remember buying games like cartridge games back on SNES, +[847.34 --> 851.56] like pretty old games for $50 and sometimes even more. +[851.70 --> 854.56] Like, what did Final Fantasy VI cost at launch? +[854.56 --> 858.08] $6 I didn't play, but $7 was $50, definitely. +[858.62 --> 866.16] Okay, so if in 1994, so we're talking 20 years ago, I think was around the time Final Fantasy VI came out. +[866.50 --> 871.44] If we're talking 20 years ago, something was $50, should it be $60 today? +[871.54 --> 873.08] I mean, let's find an inflation calculator. +[873.22 --> 875.12] Guys, I want you to start blitzing at me with this. +[875.48 --> 878.90] Is $90 completely unreasonable? +[878.90 --> 884.88] If you can get a slightly reduced experience for $60 when we factor in inflation. +[885.72 --> 891.96] You think the increased price might be reasonable due to the better game fidelity, increased mechanics? +[892.66 --> 897.86] Maybe not better game fidelity, because I think that opens up a whole can of worms. +[897.86 --> 905.16] But I would say the increased cost of making a game and the increase in general inflation. +[905.28 --> 906.36] You might need to go get that. +[906.58 --> 907.84] Kyle's here. One second. +[908.40 --> 913.32] All right, so I'm going to use an inflation calculator here. +[913.40 --> 916.86] I'm going to go 1994, something that cost $50. +[917.84 --> 919.28] And we're going to calculate it. +[919.28 --> 924.32] So apparently, according to at least the Bank of Canada inflation calculator here, +[924.64 --> 928.30] something that was $50 in 1994 should be $73.22. +[928.76 --> 932.96] And then when we factor in how much more a game costs to make these days, +[933.18 --> 936.02] is it unreasonable for them to ask for $90 for it? +[936.74 --> 938.94] All right, let's start going to the Twitter boards here, +[939.00 --> 941.50] because I'm very interested to hear what you guys have to say. +[942.76 --> 943.76] What a warm welcome. +[944.98 --> 945.72] Hey, everyone. +[946.32 --> 949.18] You're actually not live right now. +[949.28 --> 952.56] Kyle, but he has no headset on, so he doesn't know these things. +[952.98 --> 954.20] All right, I'm trying to reload here. +[955.24 --> 957.40] All right, Alan Hinkson says, +[957.50 --> 960.16] That's the last straw. I'm boycotting you, PSoft. +[960.42 --> 964.28] PC games should never be locked at 30 FPS, and $90 is ridiculous. +[965.04 --> 965.82] Owen says, +[965.92 --> 969.50] I paid $89.99 for Warcraft 3 in 2000, +[969.68 --> 972.20] and some SNES games were $79.99. +[973.46 --> 973.90] All right. +[973.90 --> 975.18] Are you like special edition versions? +[975.62 --> 976.36] Frank says, +[976.46 --> 978.94] Yeah, I didn't think Warcraft 3 was that expensive. +[978.94 --> 982.72] I think I paid $60 for it, but then I got like a French... +[982.72 --> 986.68] I think it was the battle chest that had like all the versions together that they released. +[986.82 --> 994.12] Yeah, but then if you treat an expansion pack like DLC, which it basically is, +[994.18 --> 996.14] I mean, that's pretty much exactly the same concept, +[996.84 --> 1003.94] then maybe $90 for a game and a couple expansion packs is equivalent to $90 plus a couple of DLCs. +[1003.94 --> 1004.96] No? Maybe? +[1005.60 --> 1013.04] But in the past, I think they would have gone the route with the game they release at launch is pretty much what they've worked on up till then, +[1013.16 --> 1015.66] and then they work on like more stuff. +[1015.78 --> 1017.50] So if this stuff's already available, +[1017.76 --> 1021.06] then maybe it should have just been integrated into the game from the get-go, +[1021.44 --> 1025.62] rather than trying to immediately have like an upsell for people. +[1025.62 --> 1029.46] So if they kept it secret for you, then you would feel better about it? +[1029.54 --> 1035.62] Like if they kind of like kept it on a thumb drive somewhere so that no one knew about it, +[1035.66 --> 1038.90] and then brought it out two weeks after the game comes out, then it's okay? +[1039.26 --> 1039.40] Yes. +[1039.40 --> 1041.24] I mean, I don't really see the difference personally. +[1041.24 --> 1044.66] I mean, you run a business. +[1044.84 --> 1046.98] Do you tell everything about your business publicly? +[1047.28 --> 1051.32] I mean, even though it is sort of an ignorance is bliss kind of thing, +[1051.58 --> 1053.18] there is something to be said. +[1053.28 --> 1057.96] If they hadn't talked about this and maybe had given it even two weeks or a month, +[1058.44 --> 1059.58] then maybe they could have done it. +[1059.64 --> 1061.50] But the reason they're probably talking about it now +[1061.50 --> 1066.56] is because they want to have this stuff in time for the holiday season, Q4, all that good stuff. +[1066.72 --> 1067.82] So that's basically it. +[1067.82 --> 1071.34] They're just capitalizing on the hype train because, let's face it, +[1071.62 --> 1076.26] more people are going to buy deluxe editions and extra DLC +[1076.26 --> 1082.34] when the game is all over every internet banner everywhere and in everyone's face +[1082.34 --> 1087.28] versus if they wait three to four weeks and try to get that $30 upsell at that point. +[1087.84 --> 1090.26] So, yeah, I guess I see why they're doing it, +[1090.32 --> 1093.86] but I can also see why it's kind of lame. +[1093.86 --> 1098.10] I mean, hardware makers, we see this kind of thing all the time. +[1098.20 --> 1103.74] It's not like NVIDIA is not already working on GTX 1080 and 1180. +[1104.38 --> 1105.98] They're already working on them, +[1106.08 --> 1108.48] but they're not going to tell us about all that crap now +[1108.48 --> 1110.36] because they still want to sell us some 980s +[1110.36 --> 1113.22] and they still want us to feel somewhat okay about buying 980s +[1113.22 --> 1115.60] when there's something that much better coming down the pipe. +[1115.60 --> 1119.06] So you think they could just be decent? +[1119.28 --> 1122.32] It would be more decent of them to just not tell us then. +[1123.52 --> 1127.98] I think people wouldn't be having this argument over whether or not +[1127.98 --> 1132.24] it's a thing to be done for a large video game maker. +[1132.78 --> 1139.06] I mean, Assassin's Creed is huge, so obviously it's extremely profitable. +[1139.06 --> 1143.72] I think the point at which people start to get upset +[1143.72 --> 1146.56] is the point at which they feel that the decision is being made +[1146.56 --> 1149.30] much, much more for the monetary reasons +[1149.30 --> 1153.52] than it is for giving gamers the best time they could have +[1153.52 --> 1155.74] or the most amount of content that they could give them. +[1156.00 --> 1156.28] Right. +[1156.82 --> 1159.56] All right, let's go through some tweets here. +[1159.72 --> 1160.78] Welcome to the show, Kyle. +[1161.40 --> 1161.78] Thank you. +[1162.04 --> 1162.88] Hello. Sorry I'm late. +[1163.68 --> 1164.16] All right. +[1164.42 --> 1166.84] We're getting some pretty good tweets from people here. +[1166.84 --> 1171.00] Action 52 for the NES was $199.99 in 1991. +[1171.90 --> 1173.62] Iron Hawk says it's all about the money. +[1173.72 --> 1176.28] They're announcing the DLC for hyping the game even more. +[1176.36 --> 1176.78] You know what? +[1176.82 --> 1181.32] That's a very good point because something that works really well +[1181.32 --> 1184.64] for selling more of something is just this. +[1185.28 --> 1186.32] Just talking about it. +[1186.48 --> 1188.92] Even us talking about this DLC right now +[1188.92 --> 1191.78] is creating more exposure for Assassin's Creed Unity, +[1191.96 --> 1192.80] for better or for worse. +[1193.28 --> 1195.30] That's why we get that AC money, right? +[1195.72 --> 1196.26] That's right. +[1196.26 --> 1198.64] That's why I get so much money from Ubisoft +[1198.64 --> 1201.58] for my digging references. +[1202.84 --> 1204.38] They love me. +[1206.00 --> 1206.78] Brad's Coolio. +[1206.92 --> 1208.98] I find it funny that AAA titles are so expensive +[1208.98 --> 1211.78] whereas indie games, actual good games, are so cheap. +[1211.86 --> 1213.06] Okay, Brad's Coolio. +[1213.12 --> 1214.32] I'm going to have to disagree with you. +[1214.54 --> 1216.26] You can't generalize that way. +[1216.62 --> 1218.72] There are AAA titles that aren't that expensive. +[1219.34 --> 1222.42] Tomb Raider 2013 was on Midweek Madness +[1222.42 --> 1224.62] for what was it, like $10 or something this week? +[1224.62 --> 1225.82] It's a great game. +[1226.18 --> 1228.68] Yes, it's a little bit older, but that's how life works. +[1228.74 --> 1232.58] If you want to watch the latest movie, +[1232.74 --> 1233.70] then you go to it in the theater. +[1233.94 --> 1235.90] If you want to watch the oldest movie, +[1236.04 --> 1238.58] then you find it in a value bin. +[1238.58 --> 1240.62] That's how it works. +[1240.82 --> 1243.32] And saying indie games are actual good games, +[1243.40 --> 1244.70] yes, there are good indie games, +[1244.82 --> 1248.64] but I think to say that every indie game is good is ridiculous. +[1249.04 --> 1250.54] Or to generalize that they're good. +[1250.64 --> 1251.62] There's a lot of terrible indie games, too. +[1251.86 --> 1254.74] There's a lot of just horrible indie games. +[1254.74 --> 1257.72] And if we count the indie games that get funded +[1257.72 --> 1260.44] on services like Kickstarter and don't get made, +[1260.62 --> 1263.42] then there's some really abysmal indie games. +[1263.94 --> 1269.08] Those are actionable indie games, in my opinion. +[1269.36 --> 1271.58] Apparently Tomb Raider was $3.99, so there you go. +[1271.66 --> 1273.80] You can get Tomb Raider 2013 for $4. +[1274.24 --> 1275.14] You should probably go buy it. +[1275.16 --> 1277.52] Is that the one that came with the life-size Lara Craft doll? +[1278.60 --> 1278.98] No. +[1279.38 --> 1280.00] That's kind of creepy. +[1280.10 --> 1281.10] Which one did you buy? +[1281.10 --> 1284.64] Well, for $400, they better throw something. +[1284.96 --> 1285.74] No, $4. +[1286.40 --> 1286.90] Oh, $4. +[1288.18 --> 1290.40] Why would you want a life-size Lara Croft? +[1290.48 --> 1291.62] Okay, tell me something. +[1291.90 --> 1293.98] We should probably do a straw poll here. +[1295.06 --> 1297.64] Would you buy a life-size Lara Croft doll? +[1297.70 --> 1299.52] No, it's not would you buy it. +[1299.76 --> 1302.22] Because I have to assume that everyone on this stream +[1302.22 --> 1303.28] would probably buy it. +[1303.28 --> 1305.10] What I want to know is, +[1305.26 --> 1308.78] would you prefer original Tomb Raider Lara Croft, +[1308.78 --> 1311.58] Tomb Raider 2013 Lara Croft, +[1311.68 --> 1314.80] or Angelina Jolie Lara Croft in the box? +[1315.32 --> 1317.34] Could we get old-school Lara Croft +[1317.34 --> 1320.84] with the graphics and detail of current-day Lara Croft? +[1320.84 --> 1321.82] No, you have to pick one. +[1322.08 --> 1322.56] Aw. +[1322.72 --> 1323.72] Which Tomb Raider? +[1324.02 --> 1325.98] Current-day Lara Croft, because she's a real woman. +[1327.68 --> 1329.06] Excellent choice, Kyle. +[1329.52 --> 1330.86] I agree. +[1331.34 --> 1332.28] That's my reasoning. +[1332.28 --> 1336.46] So Angelina Jolie Lara Croft is not a real woman? +[1336.46 --> 1338.60] Oh, was that an option? +[1338.72 --> 1339.78] Was Angelina Jolie an option? +[1339.88 --> 1340.08] Yeah. +[1340.20 --> 1341.24] You weren't even listening. +[1341.36 --> 1343.54] All you heard was Lara Croft comes in the box, +[1343.64 --> 1344.98] and you're like, boom, yeah. +[1345.44 --> 1348.38] I didn't know this was such an open-topic question. +[1348.38 --> 1350.82] I just feel like she'd be kind of high-maintenance. +[1352.40 --> 1356.40] Wait, so if I pick the current-gen video game Lara Croft, +[1356.46 --> 1358.34] does that mean I could control her just like in the game? +[1358.70 --> 1358.96] No. +[1359.04 --> 1360.90] Because I would have no control over Angelina. +[1360.90 --> 1363.38] No, let's say they come with their respective personalities. +[1363.38 --> 1365.26] What? +[1366.84 --> 1367.20] Okay. +[1367.70 --> 1371.24] I'd say current-gen Lara Croft, +[1371.38 --> 1373.26] because she seems like a down-to-earth chick, you know? +[1373.36 --> 1375.98] Is this really the topic of the straw poll that you're creating? +[1376.24 --> 1377.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1377.04 --> 1378.04] It's just taking me a little while, +[1378.10 --> 1379.94] because I'm not signed into Twitch chat for some reason. +[1380.12 --> 1381.02] I'm not sure what's going on here. +[1381.12 --> 1381.46] I see. +[1381.68 --> 1382.54] Stop it, Twitch! +[1382.62 --> 1383.46] What are you doing? +[1385.10 --> 1386.50] Log me in, please. +[1386.60 --> 1387.30] Thank you. +[1388.52 --> 1389.54] Stop being broken. +[1390.26 --> 1391.72] Would appreciate that very much. +[1391.72 --> 1394.36] I think this is where you and I have to start dancing +[1394.36 --> 1397.76] and just distract the viewers while Linus figures this out. +[1397.84 --> 1400.66] That would actually be incredibly helpful right about now. +[1402.68 --> 1404.10] Come on, do you have any props here? +[1404.38 --> 1404.68] What can we do? +[1404.68 --> 1407.02] No, I have a wine opener. +[1407.50 --> 1408.88] Why are we talking about props? +[1409.00 --> 1410.56] First we're talking about blow-up dolls, +[1410.68 --> 1411.88] now we're talking about props. +[1412.20 --> 1413.44] There's a C-clamp over there. +[1413.96 --> 1414.16] Wait. +[1415.04 --> 1417.42] I don't even want to know what you could do with a C-clamp. +[1418.20 --> 1418.46] All right. +[1418.46 --> 1419.10] I'm going to blow-up doll. +[1419.10 --> 1424.02] So let's take a couple more tweets about this whole Ubisoft thing +[1424.02 --> 1427.44] and then, wow, 46 new notifications. +[1427.74 --> 1431.26] Man, you guys hit me so fast on Twitter these days. +[1431.68 --> 1433.34] I don't think games should be restricted in any way. +[1433.88 --> 1434.82] Where's Luke, by the way? +[1435.06 --> 1435.46] What happened to Luke? +[1435.90 --> 1436.52] Did he finally quit? +[1436.86 --> 1437.48] You don't know where... +[1437.48 --> 1438.54] Oh, well, you've been in Hawaii. +[1438.78 --> 1439.46] Yeah, I've been in Hawaii. +[1439.58 --> 1440.92] I've been out of touch with reality for the last week. +[1440.92 --> 1442.80] He's not aware that Luke has been in Europe. +[1443.02 --> 1443.50] He's in Europe. +[1443.64 --> 1444.04] Oh, sweet. +[1444.34 --> 1447.00] Luke has been in most of Europe from what I can tell. +[1447.00 --> 1447.66] Just like Dimitri. +[1447.66 --> 1448.64] Is he and Dimitri? +[1448.76 --> 1449.70] Like, are they dating? +[1449.86 --> 1450.68] They actually met. +[1450.84 --> 1451.08] Oh, that's awesome. +[1451.08 --> 1453.76] Because when you go to Europe and there's somebody else in Europe, +[1453.88 --> 1454.44] you meet that person. +[1454.44 --> 1455.10] You meet them in Europe. +[1455.22 --> 1455.92] That's what you do. +[1455.98 --> 1457.86] That is how Europe works. +[1457.98 --> 1461.68] I think Daniel Hoff over there better be careful with ideas like that. +[1461.82 --> 1462.56] He just tweeted, +[1462.72 --> 1465.18] Imagine if Blizzard did DLC with WoW, +[1465.30 --> 1467.52] where if you want access to a particular instance, +[1467.72 --> 1469.74] you pay a small incremental amount for it. +[1470.38 --> 1470.60] Wow. +[1470.60 --> 1474.74] Well, they effectively have a much better deal going with a monthly subscription. +[1474.74 --> 1476.76] That's true, but they could do both. +[1477.42 --> 1479.64] I don't think people would go for that. +[1480.32 --> 1481.80] But they don't have to. +[1481.96 --> 1483.42] That's the thing about DLC, +[1483.86 --> 1485.78] is that nobody has to buy it. +[1486.26 --> 1490.00] Well, there's plenty of, like, frilly, you know, +[1491.28 --> 1493.98] vanity items and stuff in WoW that you can buy, +[1494.06 --> 1495.50] like, in the store and stuff like that. +[1495.64 --> 1496.70] I never bought any of them, +[1496.76 --> 1499.12] but I will say that my wife did from time to time. +[1499.54 --> 1500.46] She got the Star Pony. +[1501.46 --> 1503.52] Your wife is very vain, all those. +[1503.58 --> 1504.82] Did you ever have a Star Pony, Kyle? +[1504.84 --> 1505.36] Handy items. +[1505.54 --> 1506.56] No, I never had a Star Pony. +[1507.02 --> 1508.68] All right, what else we got for tweets here? +[1509.38 --> 1513.00] Got people asking where they can buy a Gigabyte GTX 980. +[1513.24 --> 1513.78] I don't know. +[1514.18 --> 1514.78] On the internet. +[1517.20 --> 1518.14] A Grave says, +[1518.22 --> 1520.60] I think increasing the price of AAA titles is not ridiculous, +[1520.80 --> 1522.62] but might start scaring off buyers. +[1522.62 --> 1524.76] I mean, that's the thing that's scary here, +[1524.88 --> 1527.52] is for all the vocal minority that's complaining about this, +[1527.52 --> 1530.16] there's going to be lots of people who don't care, +[1530.36 --> 1532.48] and then there's going to be the people who are actually buying it, +[1532.58 --> 1535.32] and I guarantee you that if it was affecting sales +[1535.32 --> 1536.98] in some kind of negative way, +[1537.04 --> 1539.62] so if it was actually scaring off buyers, Mr. Graves, +[1539.90 --> 1542.20] I guarantee you Ubisoft wouldn't be doing it. +[1542.86 --> 1543.54] So there you go. +[1544.70 --> 1545.10] Wow. +[1545.52 --> 1547.32] Kimchi Mandu says, +[1547.44 --> 1548.76] I don't mind the 30 FPS. +[1548.76 --> 1551.18] I lock most of my games at 30 or 60, +[1551.36 --> 1552.40] so I don't really mind. +[1552.40 --> 1555.20] Not many PC gamers that do that. +[1556.44 --> 1557.66] I sometimes do 60. +[1557.74 --> 1558.92] It depends on the game, though. +[1560.52 --> 1560.92] Really? +[1561.52 --> 1563.52] That's one of the benefits of PC gaming, +[1563.60 --> 1565.50] is that you don't have to conform to 30 FPS. +[1565.64 --> 1566.34] You're not locked in. +[1566.40 --> 1569.42] Yeah, I was doing adaptive V-Sync for a while +[1569.42 --> 1571.30] on games that supported it. +[1571.46 --> 1572.92] I didn't mind it. +[1573.02 --> 1574.30] I thought it was a... +[1574.30 --> 1575.38] I mean, when you have a monitor +[1575.38 --> 1577.20] that can't do more than 60 hertz anyway, +[1577.46 --> 1579.42] I felt like there wasn't much benefit +[1579.42 --> 1580.48] to going beyond that. +[1580.48 --> 1583.32] Here's a tweet from rsmith17. +[1583.86 --> 1585.18] You aren't taking into account +[1585.18 --> 1587.96] that games sell many more copies now +[1587.96 --> 1588.70] than they did, +[1588.78 --> 1590.04] and this offsets the inflation. +[1590.82 --> 1593.48] Okay, you can make that argument, +[1593.76 --> 1595.24] but the price of an item +[1595.24 --> 1599.24] has never been dictated by the cost of it. +[1599.38 --> 1600.98] The price of an item is dictated +[1600.98 --> 1602.66] by what it's worth to the buyer, +[1602.66 --> 1604.54] and then it kind of scales +[1604.54 --> 1607.06] with the market from there. +[1607.06 --> 1612.52] So if it was worth $60 or $50 or $80 +[1612.52 --> 1614.46] or some of these older games people are tweeting +[1614.46 --> 1615.14] or even more, +[1615.20 --> 1617.20] if it was worth that to the buyer then, +[1617.70 --> 1618.90] then it's probably still worth +[1618.90 --> 1622.40] that relative amount of income to the buyer now. +[1622.98 --> 1626.48] So yeah, the fact that they're selling more copies of it +[1626.48 --> 1627.70] means that they're going to make more money, +[1627.70 --> 1631.16] but it doesn't mean that the cost... +[1631.16 --> 1633.08] The value of it has gone down. +[1633.08 --> 1635.88] Yeah, it doesn't mean the value goes down per user. +[1636.04 --> 1637.04] It doesn't really work that way. +[1637.96 --> 1639.18] I mean, they're businesses. +[1640.04 --> 1641.60] They are trying to make money, +[1641.68 --> 1643.44] whether we sort of like this or not. +[1643.48 --> 1644.04] And you know what? +[1644.40 --> 1646.42] Indie developers are businesses. +[1646.80 --> 1647.16] They... +[1647.16 --> 1649.18] If they make money, +[1649.26 --> 1649.90] they're not going to be sad. +[1649.96 --> 1650.98] You watch Indie Game the movie, +[1651.28 --> 1652.72] you think the Super Meat Boy guy +[1652.72 --> 1655.60] is like sad that his game sells lots of copies +[1655.60 --> 1657.60] and he makes shed loads of money? +[1657.90 --> 1659.84] I mean, yeah, they do it out of passion, sure, +[1659.96 --> 1661.66] but that doesn't mean they don't want to make money +[1661.66 --> 1663.72] and they're not going to try to make money. +[1664.08 --> 1664.80] What about Notch? +[1665.82 --> 1666.42] I'm sorry? +[1666.80 --> 1667.52] What about Notch? +[1667.80 --> 1669.10] What about Notch? +[1669.12 --> 1671.80] He's made more money than like... +[1671.80 --> 1671.96] I know. +[1671.96 --> 1674.24] Probably everyone in the town I'm in combined. +[1674.60 --> 1676.64] But he is also taking a step +[1676.64 --> 1679.52] that will potentially make him a lot less money. +[1679.98 --> 1682.34] Right, but he has lots of money already. +[1682.34 --> 1686.44] So he's reached a point of moneyness +[1686.44 --> 1688.64] where it doesn't really make a difference anymore. +[1689.12 --> 1690.50] It kind of feels like that. +[1690.80 --> 1693.44] All right, so why don't we move on to our next topic here, +[1693.54 --> 1695.68] which is fast charging batteries +[1695.68 --> 1697.54] with a 20-year lifetime. +[1697.74 --> 1699.96] This was posted by Meechev on the forum +[1699.96 --> 1702.20] and the original article is from engadget.com. +[1702.24 --> 1702.94] I'm just going to go ahead +[1702.94 --> 1705.16] and pop that up for you guys to enjoy. +[1705.80 --> 1708.70] But this looks freaking promising. +[1708.70 --> 1712.56] Apparently the technology is not super expensive to produce +[1712.56 --> 1714.34] and we could be looking at batteries +[1714.34 --> 1716.62] that can charge up to 70% +[1716.62 --> 1718.52] and these would be new lithium-ion batteries +[1718.52 --> 1721.34] up to 70% in two minutes. +[1722.50 --> 1723.34] That's ridiculous. +[1723.90 --> 1724.80] Yeah, I mean... +[1724.80 --> 1724.98] Wow. +[1725.40 --> 1726.02] I mean, okay. +[1726.24 --> 1728.12] Here, question for you guys +[1728.12 --> 1729.76] and you can debate amongst yourselves, +[1729.92 --> 1732.52] but what's more important to you? +[1732.66 --> 1733.82] Long battery life +[1733.82 --> 1735.10] or fast charging +[1735.10 --> 1736.72] with the same battery life we have today? +[1736.72 --> 1739.86] I'll go for long battery life +[1739.86 --> 1742.62] because I'm pretty good about plugging in my phone every night. +[1742.80 --> 1745.24] If my phone can last all day with heavy use, +[1745.38 --> 1747.28] then it's going to get a full charge every night. +[1747.48 --> 1749.64] So yeah, that would be it for me. +[1749.78 --> 1750.92] Fast charging is nice, +[1751.32 --> 1752.32] but at the end of the day, +[1752.38 --> 1754.20] you still need something to charge it with. +[1754.60 --> 1757.40] I would prefer just having a self-contained battery +[1757.40 --> 1759.46] that lasts as long as it does, +[1760.24 --> 1761.52] regardless of where I am +[1761.52 --> 1763.52] or if I have an AC power outlet near me. +[1763.78 --> 1765.72] I guess it's a lifestyle thing too, though, +[1765.72 --> 1767.82] because if you go to work +[1767.82 --> 1769.72] where you have an outlet next to you, +[1769.78 --> 1770.78] like you work at a desk, +[1771.08 --> 1772.62] then fast charging is great. +[1772.70 --> 1774.10] You just give it a zap whenever you need it. +[1774.16 --> 1775.52] However, if you go to work +[1775.52 --> 1777.72] where you're on the go all day +[1777.72 --> 1778.74] and you're moving around +[1778.74 --> 1779.98] and you're using your phone a lot, +[1780.06 --> 1781.78] then I guess longer battery life is more useful. +[1781.96 --> 1783.12] But either way, +[1783.52 --> 1786.10] this will enable potentially devices +[1786.10 --> 1787.40] with larger batteries +[1787.40 --> 1789.50] to also be charged much more quickly. +[1789.50 --> 1790.90] So if we had, you know, +[1790.98 --> 1794.34] I usually assume when some research comes out +[1794.34 --> 1796.50] and they talk about what percentage they can charge +[1796.50 --> 1799.14] in X number of minutes for like a phone, +[1799.30 --> 1800.90] I usually assume they're talking about an iPhone, +[1801.08 --> 1804.84] so we can say somewhere in the 1800 to 2100 milliamp hour range. +[1805.24 --> 1806.68] So if you had a tablet, +[1807.18 --> 1809.26] let's say a 6,000 milliamp hour battery +[1809.26 --> 1810.42] or 5,000, +[1810.46 --> 1811.80] oh no, they don't go up to that high, do they? +[1811.90 --> 1812.28] What are they? +[1812.32 --> 1814.16] Usually like 4,000 to 6,000, +[1814.28 --> 1814.96] somewhere in that range? +[1814.96 --> 1815.96] I think 3 to 5. +[1816.14 --> 1816.60] 3 to 5? +[1816.60 --> 1817.22] Is what I've seen, yeah. +[1817.26 --> 1817.78] Okay, well, whatever. +[1817.90 --> 1820.52] So the point is we could maybe charge that to 70% +[1820.52 --> 1824.32] in 10 minutes or 5 minutes or 6 minutes +[1824.32 --> 1825.32] or whatever the case may be. +[1825.48 --> 1827.12] So pretty darn exciting. +[1827.24 --> 1829.82] So they're using titanium dioxide nanotubes +[1829.82 --> 1831.88] for the anode rather than graphite, +[1832.02 --> 1834.20] which speeds up the battery's chemical reactions, +[1834.34 --> 1836.10] offering 10,000 charging cycles +[1836.10 --> 1837.32] rather than the usual 500. +[1837.82 --> 1839.00] So would that be something +[1839.00 --> 1840.06] that's more important to you +[1840.06 --> 1841.06] than the fast charging? +[1841.24 --> 1842.44] The fact that now you can get +[1842.44 --> 1844.14] 20 times longer life out of it, +[1844.14 --> 1845.80] especially now that so many devices +[1845.80 --> 1848.16] don't have removable batteries? +[1848.96 --> 1851.68] When I first was looking at this story earlier, +[1851.92 --> 1853.90] I was very excited initially +[1853.90 --> 1855.04] because I'm always happy +[1855.04 --> 1857.12] when I see battery technology improvements +[1857.12 --> 1858.36] because I think that's just something +[1858.36 --> 1860.00] that's lagged behind so badly. +[1860.68 --> 1863.02] But my secondary reaction was, +[1863.50 --> 1865.16] I hope it doesn't have +[1865.16 --> 1867.14] like some sort of negative impact. +[1867.30 --> 1868.36] You know, I hope each one of these +[1868.36 --> 1869.72] that they create doesn't, you know, +[1869.90 --> 1872.08] kill 10 baby seals or something like that. +[1872.08 --> 1877.76] So yeah, that's a pretty big factor for me +[1877.76 --> 1880.70] at this point when it goes into, +[1881.02 --> 1882.12] especially for technology, +[1882.36 --> 1884.02] is going to be the environmental impact +[1884.02 --> 1885.76] it might have as well. +[1886.12 --> 1887.46] So think of the children factor? +[1888.12 --> 1889.18] Think of the children, yes. +[1889.24 --> 1889.80] Think of the seals. +[1889.90 --> 1890.66] Our future. +[1890.90 --> 1891.54] But yeah, I mean, +[1891.64 --> 1893.24] if you have something +[1893.24 --> 1895.76] and it's going to last 10,000 charging cycles +[1895.76 --> 1896.38] rather than 500, +[1896.52 --> 1897.60] it should last a lot longer. +[1897.60 --> 1900.14] Hopefully, maybe the device could last longer. +[1901.60 --> 1903.82] I mean, another discussion is +[1903.82 --> 1906.52] if we're reaching a point of capability +[1906.52 --> 1907.78] with the technology and the speed +[1907.78 --> 1909.66] where devices might start lasting longer +[1909.66 --> 1912.20] rather than being replaced in one or two years. +[1913.20 --> 1913.50] So yeah. +[1913.74 --> 1915.20] Timing for this could be perfect then. +[1915.58 --> 1915.80] Yeah. +[1915.80 --> 1918.66] So you get a device that, you know, +[1918.72 --> 1921.38] isn't really getting that much faster +[1921.38 --> 1922.16] every generation, +[1922.16 --> 1923.18] so you don't really feel the need +[1923.18 --> 1924.08] to replace it so often. +[1924.32 --> 1925.16] I mean, something like this +[1925.16 --> 1927.44] could be great for your project Aura phone. +[1927.62 --> 1928.48] So you could, you know, +[1928.52 --> 1930.98] buy yourself a quick charge module +[1930.98 --> 1932.80] versus the standard battery module +[1932.80 --> 1934.62] and make that thing last freaking forever. +[1934.62 --> 1937.30] I mean, once you have a portable device +[1937.30 --> 1938.38] that can do, you know, +[1938.62 --> 1941.60] say 4K resolution on a handheld display +[1941.60 --> 1943.82] and have 48 hours of battery life +[1943.82 --> 1946.36] and, you know, apart from gameplay, +[1946.68 --> 1948.20] what really stressful thing +[1948.20 --> 1949.02] do you do with the phone? +[1949.18 --> 1951.74] So as long as it's not physically wearing out +[1951.74 --> 1953.30] or bending, +[1953.50 --> 1955.20] then it should be able to last +[1955.20 --> 1956.34] a reasonable amount of time. +[1957.06 --> 1960.38] Question for you is, +[1960.60 --> 1963.52] do we really even need 4K on a mobile display? +[1963.52 --> 1966.00] I mean, have you used the LG G3? +[1967.10 --> 1968.14] No, I haven't. +[1968.48 --> 1970.32] I don't really think so. +[1970.48 --> 1971.42] I think it's overkill. +[1971.66 --> 1973.50] I think the retina displays +[1973.50 --> 1974.30] and the small devices +[1974.30 --> 1977.74] are pretty absurd a lot of the time. +[1977.94 --> 1978.52] I mean... +[1979.22 --> 1980.54] It's a pixel race. +[1980.72 --> 1982.64] It's a pixel race for smartphones, I feel, +[1982.82 --> 1985.32] and I wish there was more of a pixel race +[1985.32 --> 1987.10] for PC monitors +[1987.10 --> 1988.62] because, you know, +[1988.66 --> 1990.06] like the Nexus 6 is coming out +[1990.06 --> 1992.86] and it's got a 2560 by 1440 screen +[1992.86 --> 1994.92] and most people that have monitors +[1994.92 --> 1996.08] are still running 1080, +[1996.36 --> 1996.86] which is... +[1996.86 --> 1998.12] I find that ridiculous +[1998.12 --> 1999.62] that a 5.5-inch screen +[1999.62 --> 2000.72] or a 6-inch screen, whatever, +[2001.04 --> 2001.82] has a higher resolution +[2001.82 --> 2002.40] than the monitor +[2002.40 --> 2003.84] that you're using every day +[2003.84 --> 2005.46] for work or for gaming and whatnot. +[2005.86 --> 2007.30] When the funniest thing about it is, +[2007.50 --> 2008.34] you know what? +[2008.52 --> 2010.02] I've been using the iPhone 6 +[2010.02 --> 2011.14] for over a week now +[2011.14 --> 2013.56] and it never occurred to me +[2013.56 --> 2014.58] for even a second +[2014.58 --> 2016.70] that the screen was low-res +[2016.70 --> 2019.18] because it really, really doesn't matter. +[2019.60 --> 2020.90] Like, relatively low-res. +[2021.00 --> 2022.42] It's still retina or whatever, +[2022.58 --> 2024.24] but it's not as high-res +[2024.24 --> 2025.08] as the 1M8 +[2025.08 --> 2026.70] that I was using right before it. +[2026.80 --> 2027.24] So, yeah, +[2027.32 --> 2028.46] it's just funny you mention that. +[2028.60 --> 2030.20] Not only can I not tell the difference +[2030.20 --> 2032.36] between 1440p and 1080, +[2032.48 --> 2033.66] but I couldn't even tell the difference +[2033.66 --> 2035.80] stepping down to whatever this is +[2035.80 --> 2036.52] because it's not 1080. +[2037.48 --> 2037.98] Yeah, I mean, +[2038.02 --> 2038.72] there's definitely something +[2038.72 --> 2040.30] to be said for getting up to that point +[2040.30 --> 2042.30] where, you know, 1080 and beyond +[2042.30 --> 2044.78] because Steve's Windows phone +[2044.78 --> 2045.30] that he has, +[2045.36 --> 2045.98] he was showing to me +[2045.98 --> 2046.88] and that was my first thing +[2046.88 --> 2047.44] I noticed about it. +[2047.48 --> 2047.62] I was like, +[2047.64 --> 2049.56] oh, this has like an 800x600 display +[2049.56 --> 2050.14] on it or something, +[2050.26 --> 2052.12] which is why it cost like 60 bucks. +[2052.28 --> 2052.86] But, yeah, +[2052.90 --> 2054.66] I mean, once you get to a certain amount +[2054.66 --> 2055.30] of pixel density, +[2055.42 --> 2057.48] I think it really doesn't matter +[2057.48 --> 2058.46] for a handheld device. +[2059.98 --> 2060.48] All right, +[2060.52 --> 2062.16] so speaking of handheld devices, +[2062.16 --> 2064.10] why don't we jump into +[2064.10 --> 2066.28] Android 5.0 Lollipop +[2066.28 --> 2067.38] and the Nexus 9 +[2067.38 --> 2068.48] and the Nexus 6. +[2068.66 --> 2069.58] So, guys, +[2069.74 --> 2071.26] start hitting us on Twitter. +[2071.44 --> 2071.84] So it's, +[2071.90 --> 2073.06] oh, I can't really point +[2073.06 --> 2073.86] over there very well. +[2074.04 --> 2074.46] There we go. +[2074.78 --> 2075.76] Linus Tech on Twitter. +[2076.02 --> 2076.70] I want to start hearing +[2076.70 --> 2077.38] from you guys +[2077.38 --> 2080.06] about Android 5.0 Lollipop, +[2080.14 --> 2081.66] Nexus 9 and Nexus 6. +[2081.76 --> 2082.88] What are your thoughts? +[2082.94 --> 2084.10] We will go through some of those, +[2084.34 --> 2084.90] but first, +[2085.02 --> 2086.76] let's sort of briefly run through +[2086.76 --> 2088.66] exactly what's going on here. +[2088.88 --> 2089.16] So, +[2089.70 --> 2091.10] Android 5.0 +[2091.10 --> 2092.58] is coming in the next few months +[2092.58 --> 2093.50] for the Nexus 5, +[2093.62 --> 2093.86] 7, +[2094.02 --> 2094.28] 10 +[2094.28 --> 2095.92] and Google Play Edition devices, +[2096.06 --> 2097.76] as well as the upcoming 6 and 9. +[2097.96 --> 2099.62] So we now have Nexus' 5, +[2099.74 --> 2099.98] 6, +[2100.10 --> 2100.50] 7, +[2100.50 --> 2101.58] 9, +[2101.82 --> 2102.18] 10. +[2102.54 --> 2102.80] Hmm. +[2104.22 --> 2104.60] Wow. +[2104.74 --> 2105.54] All at the same time. +[2105.62 --> 2105.86] Amazing. +[2105.92 --> 2106.54] What happened to 8? +[2106.78 --> 2107.72] That's all I've ever wanted +[2107.72 --> 2109.38] was an 8-inch Google device. +[2109.66 --> 2109.94] Yeah, +[2109.98 --> 2110.74] it would be great. +[2110.84 --> 2111.58] I would rate it +[2111.58 --> 2112.44] 8 out of 8, +[2112.58 --> 2112.80] mate. +[2114.26 --> 2114.86] Do you understand? +[2114.94 --> 2115.96] I think my wife has one of those. +[2116.70 --> 2117.38] All right, +[2117.38 --> 2118.92] so the Nexus Player +[2118.92 --> 2119.92] streaming media device +[2119.92 --> 2120.82] is also getting it. +[2121.10 --> 2122.64] Its biggest new feature +[2122.64 --> 2124.02] is Material Design. +[2124.14 --> 2124.72] It overhauls +[2124.72 --> 2126.06] almost all of the GUI. +[2126.16 --> 2128.12] This is the biggest Android change +[2128.12 --> 2130.06] since Ice Cream Sandwich +[2130.06 --> 2131.44] back in 2011. +[2131.86 --> 2133.40] It has new refined animations, +[2133.62 --> 2134.46] a new color palette, +[2134.60 --> 2135.56] revamped multitasking, +[2135.70 --> 2136.42] voice controls, +[2136.42 --> 2138.44] and also brings +[2138.44 --> 2140.22] 5,000 new APIs +[2140.22 --> 2141.56] for developers to tap into +[2141.56 --> 2142.60] and lets multiple devices +[2142.60 --> 2143.76] and various form factors +[2143.76 --> 2145.52] work together better. +[2145.78 --> 2147.10] There's improved syncing options, +[2147.24 --> 2148.14] new notification settings +[2148.14 --> 2148.60] and controls, +[2148.76 --> 2149.92] improved battery saving, +[2150.26 --> 2150.98] something that +[2150.98 --> 2153.22] I would be really happy to see +[2153.22 --> 2155.30] because being back on iOS again +[2155.30 --> 2156.58] has actually been +[2156.58 --> 2158.02] super duper nice +[2158.02 --> 2159.48] because particularly +[2159.48 --> 2160.80] when the phone is idle, +[2161.02 --> 2161.90] the power management +[2161.90 --> 2164.66] is just so much better. +[2164.66 --> 2166.44] Multiple user accounts, +[2166.54 --> 2168.24] something I guess +[2168.24 --> 2169.52] we should have seen coming. +[2169.66 --> 2169.82] I mean, +[2169.86 --> 2170.86] as someone with a family, +[2170.98 --> 2171.66] I'm not necessarily +[2171.66 --> 2172.68] going to buy my 5-year-old +[2172.68 --> 2173.04] a phone, +[2173.12 --> 2173.88] but I also don't want him +[2173.88 --> 2176.46] running amok on my OS +[2176.46 --> 2177.88] doing all my things +[2177.88 --> 2179.48] when it would be better +[2179.48 --> 2180.00] if he just had +[2180.00 --> 2180.66] his own playground. +[2181.34 --> 2182.46] And some third parties +[2182.46 --> 2183.20] have added stuff +[2183.20 --> 2183.98] like this already. +[2184.20 --> 2184.74] So we've got, +[2184.82 --> 2184.92] you know, +[2184.96 --> 2186.18] HTC has a kid mode +[2186.18 --> 2187.14] if I recall correctly +[2187.14 --> 2188.56] and I think Samsung +[2188.56 --> 2189.72] does as well. +[2190.04 --> 2190.92] So now you can get it +[2190.92 --> 2192.52] without subjecting yourself +[2192.52 --> 2195.18] to TouchWiz +[2195.18 --> 2195.94] or using Sense. +[2197.06 --> 2198.24] What else is there in here? +[2198.64 --> 2199.54] Multiple user accounts. +[2200.22 --> 2200.58] Yeah, +[2200.78 --> 2201.78] so that's basically it. +[2201.84 --> 2202.58] Now we can get into +[2202.58 --> 2203.58] the hardware of the phone. +[2203.80 --> 2204.74] So Paul, +[2204.86 --> 2206.04] want to run us through +[2206.04 --> 2206.80] the Nexus 6? +[2206.90 --> 2207.78] Maybe give us your thoughts? +[2209.12 --> 2209.48] Yeah, +[2209.62 --> 2210.82] so this is something +[2210.82 --> 2211.70] that we were discussing +[2211.70 --> 2212.06] a little bit +[2212.06 --> 2213.18] before the show started, +[2213.28 --> 2214.96] but I'm looking +[2214.96 --> 2216.34] for a new phone soon. +[2216.44 --> 2216.70] Actually, +[2216.76 --> 2217.62] I have a new contract +[2217.62 --> 2218.06] starting, +[2218.20 --> 2218.76] and when I saw +[2218.76 --> 2219.50] the Nexus 6, +[2219.64 --> 2219.98] I was, +[2220.12 --> 2220.28] oh, +[2220.58 --> 2221.04] sorry, Kyle. +[2221.14 --> 2221.44] It's okay. +[2221.44 --> 2221.98] There you go. +[2222.04 --> 2223.74] I want to read it too. +[2223.90 --> 2225.02] When I saw the Nexus 6, +[2225.24 --> 2226.00] I was like, +[2226.06 --> 2226.24] ooh, +[2226.38 --> 2227.00] like I want to get +[2227.00 --> 2227.50] a new phone. +[2227.62 --> 2228.80] I don't care really +[2228.80 --> 2229.58] which phone I get +[2229.58 --> 2230.12] at this point, +[2230.22 --> 2231.04] but I want it to be +[2231.04 --> 2231.70] a new one. +[2233.16 --> 2234.00] So it gave me +[2234.00 --> 2234.64] some consideration, +[2234.84 --> 2235.06] but yeah, +[2235.12 --> 2236.52] 5.96 inches, +[2236.74 --> 2239.62] 2560 by 1440 panel, +[2239.86 --> 2240.44] which we were just +[2240.44 --> 2240.94] talking about, +[2241.06 --> 2241.86] not a huge difference, +[2241.94 --> 2242.24] but hey, +[2242.96 --> 2244.06] it's a nice screen, +[2244.14 --> 2244.48] I'm sure, +[2244.60 --> 2245.80] 13 megapixel camera. +[2246.18 --> 2247.58] I like the 4K recording. +[2248.74 --> 2250.14] I've been using my phone +[2250.14 --> 2251.52] at times to do +[2251.52 --> 2253.00] random video recording +[2253.00 --> 2253.48] here and there +[2253.48 --> 2254.04] and being able +[2254.04 --> 2255.46] to record at 4K. +[2255.70 --> 2256.64] That's pretty nice. +[2257.24 --> 2258.24] Two megapixel front +[2258.24 --> 2259.08] facing camera +[2259.08 --> 2261.22] for the selfies. +[2262.10 --> 2262.82] I think it's got +[2262.82 --> 2263.80] an f-stop of two +[2263.80 --> 2264.58] as well. +[2265.14 --> 2265.32] Oh, yeah? +[2265.32 --> 2265.76] It's got a pretty +[2265.76 --> 2266.32] wide aperture, +[2266.64 --> 2267.02] which means, +[2267.08 --> 2267.74] you know, +[2267.76 --> 2268.46] you can get some +[2268.46 --> 2269.48] good low lighting +[2269.48 --> 2270.84] performance as well +[2270.84 --> 2271.36] as that nice +[2271.36 --> 2272.34] defocused background. +[2272.46 --> 2272.94] Go for a more +[2272.94 --> 2273.62] cinematic feel. +[2274.00 --> 2274.72] More cinematic? +[2274.72 --> 2276.10] Oh, you've got +[2276.10 --> 2276.68] to be kidding me. +[2276.78 --> 2277.50] So you're worried +[2277.50 --> 2278.54] about bokeh effects +[2278.54 --> 2280.76] on selfies, really? +[2280.82 --> 2281.06] Of course. +[2282.34 --> 2283.02] It's trending. +[2283.02 --> 2283.54] I hate you guys. +[2283.54 --> 2284.54] It's trending right now. +[2284.80 --> 2285.58] What can I say? +[2285.62 --> 2285.88] I mean, +[2285.92 --> 2286.98] look at the filters +[2286.98 --> 2287.90] that they have +[2287.90 --> 2289.72] on Instagram. +[2290.00 --> 2290.16] You know, +[2290.22 --> 2290.80] that's one of the +[2290.80 --> 2291.34] popular ones +[2291.34 --> 2291.74] where they put +[2291.74 --> 2292.44] the depth of field, +[2292.58 --> 2292.68] you know, +[2292.74 --> 2293.92] you blur everything +[2293.92 --> 2294.82] except the subject. +[2294.82 --> 2295.64] Take your social media +[2295.64 --> 2296.36] to the next level. +[2296.56 --> 2296.72] Yes. +[2297.44 --> 2298.16] I'm very excited +[2298.16 --> 2298.56] about that. +[2298.70 --> 2298.96] Indulge. +[2299.36 --> 2299.70] 32, +[2299.88 --> 2300.10] all right, +[2300.10 --> 2302.70] 3220 mAh battery +[2302.70 --> 2303.44] is something +[2303.44 --> 2304.10] that's, +[2304.18 --> 2304.92] yeah, +[2305.06 --> 2305.28] whatever, +[2305.94 --> 2306.42] that's been +[2306.42 --> 2306.88] my biggest +[2306.88 --> 2307.46] complaint recently. +[2307.60 --> 2309.26] My phone battery +[2309.26 --> 2310.16] is really, +[2310.30 --> 2311.12] really sucking lately +[2311.12 --> 2311.82] in the last +[2311.82 --> 2313.12] six months +[2313.12 --> 2313.92] of its existence. +[2315.26 --> 2315.74] So, +[2315.78 --> 2316.12] yeah, +[2316.16 --> 2316.82] hopefully the larger +[2316.82 --> 2317.64] battery combined +[2317.64 --> 2318.30] with the +[2318.30 --> 2320.86] lollipop features +[2320.86 --> 2321.88] of particularly +[2321.88 --> 2322.62] saving power +[2322.62 --> 2323.18] when it's like +[2323.18 --> 2324.04] right about +[2324.04 --> 2324.72] to shut off. +[2325.10 --> 2325.74] That's what I hate. +[2326.12 --> 2327.44] My phone battery +[2327.44 --> 2327.96] runs out +[2327.96 --> 2329.38] and then I plug it in +[2329.38 --> 2330.14] and then I have to +[2330.14 --> 2330.34] like, +[2330.48 --> 2331.48] like if I'm going to bed +[2331.48 --> 2332.32] and I use my phone +[2332.32 --> 2332.88] as an alarm +[2332.88 --> 2334.10] and the battery dies +[2334.10 --> 2335.68] and I go to plug it in, +[2335.88 --> 2336.40] I have to like +[2336.40 --> 2337.30] wait for five +[2337.30 --> 2338.44] plus minutes +[2338.44 --> 2339.40] to get enough charge +[2339.40 --> 2340.16] to turn it on +[2340.16 --> 2340.84] so that my alarm +[2340.84 --> 2341.32] will go off. +[2341.46 --> 2342.56] That's an annoyance +[2342.56 --> 2343.40] that's happened to me +[2343.40 --> 2344.00] several times. +[2344.00 --> 2344.42] You know what's funny +[2344.42 --> 2344.88] is, +[2345.18 --> 2346.02] yeah, +[2346.12 --> 2346.32] I mean, +[2346.38 --> 2348.38] this looks like +[2348.38 --> 2350.28] Google catching up +[2350.28 --> 2351.06] to what other guys +[2351.06 --> 2351.66] were already doing. +[2351.86 --> 2352.86] Like Samsung had that +[2352.86 --> 2354.38] high endurance mode +[2354.38 --> 2355.10] or whatever they were +[2355.10 --> 2355.70] calling it +[2355.70 --> 2356.38] where your phone +[2356.38 --> 2357.32] could last for like +[2357.32 --> 2358.38] multiple days +[2358.38 --> 2359.70] on a few percent charge +[2359.70 --> 2360.94] because it just like +[2360.94 --> 2362.42] didn't do basically anything. +[2362.54 --> 2363.02] It was like +[2363.02 --> 2364.44] two color display +[2364.44 --> 2365.42] and all that kind of stuff +[2365.42 --> 2366.56] and it's funny +[2366.56 --> 2367.04] that you mentioned +[2367.04 --> 2367.46] that problem +[2367.46 --> 2367.98] with your phone +[2367.98 --> 2368.88] because I don't know +[2368.88 --> 2369.82] about other manufacturers +[2369.82 --> 2371.18] but HTC actually +[2371.18 --> 2372.38] reserves enough battery +[2372.38 --> 2374.46] to wake itself up +[2374.46 --> 2375.78] to have an alarm go off +[2375.78 --> 2376.40] even if it dies +[2376.40 --> 2377.16] in the middle of the night +[2377.16 --> 2378.60] so you might want to +[2378.60 --> 2379.98] find a manufacturer +[2379.98 --> 2381.58] whose phone does that. +[2381.94 --> 2383.42] I do love HTC phones +[2383.42 --> 2384.32] or there have been +[2384.32 --> 2385.38] many HTC phones +[2385.38 --> 2386.20] that I've enjoyed +[2386.20 --> 2386.74] in the past. +[2386.94 --> 2387.98] My wife has the one +[2387.98 --> 2390.42] and she's really enjoyed it +[2390.42 --> 2392.96] and she uses it +[2392.96 --> 2393.96] to play audiobooks. +[2394.52 --> 2394.80] So, +[2395.06 --> 2397.68] thoughts on the $649.99 +[2397.68 --> 2399.72] unlocked price point though? +[2400.40 --> 2401.42] I was disappointed. +[2402.14 --> 2403.06] That's deep. +[2403.30 --> 2403.52] Yeah, +[2403.76 --> 2403.96] so, +[2404.14 --> 2405.10] I mean, +[2405.14 --> 2405.62] it's too early +[2405.62 --> 2406.40] to say now too +[2406.40 --> 2406.80] but I mean, +[2406.84 --> 2407.92] there was also a rumor +[2407.92 --> 2408.70] the day, +[2408.88 --> 2409.64] I think the day +[2409.64 --> 2411.66] of the launch of these +[2411.66 --> 2412.20] or when they, +[2412.30 --> 2412.48] you know, +[2412.50 --> 2413.12] when they first started +[2413.12 --> 2414.04] discussing them publicly +[2414.04 --> 2416.84] that I think AT&T +[2416.84 --> 2418.98] had posted the pre-order +[2418.98 --> 2420.02] or something accidentally +[2420.02 --> 2421.14] for the Nexus 6 +[2421.14 --> 2422.24] and it was like +[2422.24 --> 2423.42] $50 on contract +[2423.42 --> 2427.52] and I'm starting to think +[2427.52 --> 2428.30] like that might have been +[2428.30 --> 2429.04] just a mistake +[2429.04 --> 2430.34] and probably not actually +[2430.34 --> 2431.02] going to be what +[2431.02 --> 2432.16] they're going to charge for it +[2432.16 --> 2434.40] because $650 with contract +[2434.40 --> 2436.14] is still probably seems to me +[2436.14 --> 2437.44] like a $100 to $200 +[2437.44 --> 2439.14] upfront investment +[2439.14 --> 2439.80] they're going to ask +[2439.80 --> 2441.08] especially when it's brand new. +[2441.08 --> 2443.46] Yeah, +[2443.82 --> 2445.62] I'm pretty disappointed. +[2445.82 --> 2445.92] I mean, +[2446.00 --> 2446.64] I don't know +[2446.64 --> 2447.90] that this has been confirmed +[2447.90 --> 2448.42] or anything +[2448.42 --> 2449.42] but I would suspect +[2449.42 --> 2450.82] based on the fact +[2450.82 --> 2451.94] that there's not much +[2451.94 --> 2453.22] actual spec difference now +[2453.22 --> 2454.10] between the Nexus 5 +[2454.10 --> 2454.88] and the Nexus 6 +[2454.88 --> 2455.96] we're going to see +[2455.96 --> 2457.36] those two devices coexist. +[2457.72 --> 2458.62] In addition to that, +[2459.12 --> 2459.46] I mean, +[2459.72 --> 2460.78] even Apple +[2460.78 --> 2462.32] has finally acknowledged +[2462.32 --> 2463.84] that there isn't +[2463.84 --> 2465.62] just one size fits all +[2465.62 --> 2466.68] for phone +[2466.68 --> 2467.92] physical sizes. +[2468.62 --> 2468.76] So, +[2469.12 --> 2469.26] for, +[2469.58 --> 2471.06] when I first heard +[2471.06 --> 2472.06] that the Nexus 6 +[2472.06 --> 2472.80] was going to be +[2472.80 --> 2474.38] a 6-inch device +[2474.38 --> 2474.98] or whatever it is, +[2475.02 --> 2475.98] 5.9 I think, +[2476.42 --> 2477.14] when I first heard +[2477.14 --> 2477.70] that it was going to be +[2477.70 --> 2479.08] a 6-inch class device +[2479.08 --> 2479.84] I kind of went, +[2479.96 --> 2480.52] what are they, +[2480.64 --> 2480.96] high? +[2481.34 --> 2481.62] I mean, +[2481.68 --> 2481.86] yeah, +[2481.94 --> 2483.38] I know that the Note series +[2483.38 --> 2484.86] does great +[2484.86 --> 2486.38] and I know that Samsung +[2486.38 --> 2488.14] basically created +[2488.14 --> 2489.26] the hype around +[2489.26 --> 2490.68] this phablet category +[2490.68 --> 2492.58] that is doing incredibly well +[2492.58 --> 2493.68] with even Apple +[2493.68 --> 2494.76] jumping on board +[2494.76 --> 2496.90] but for that to be +[2496.90 --> 2498.00] their only device +[2498.00 --> 2498.56] because that's what +[2498.56 --> 2499.44] we've seen from Google +[2499.44 --> 2500.08] in the past. +[2500.40 --> 2502.22] There's the Nexus device +[2502.22 --> 2503.36] and then there's +[2503.36 --> 2504.16] Google Play editions +[2504.16 --> 2505.92] of like other stuff +[2505.92 --> 2507.26] but it looks, +[2507.38 --> 2508.88] I think just for the first time +[2508.88 --> 2509.32] we're going to get +[2509.32 --> 2509.96] the Nexus 5 +[2509.96 --> 2510.80] to just kind of +[2510.80 --> 2511.56] continue forever +[2511.56 --> 2512.72] or at least for +[2512.72 --> 2513.72] quite a while +[2513.72 --> 2514.96] and then the Nexus 6 +[2514.96 --> 2515.54] is going to be +[2515.54 --> 2516.86] in addition to that +[2516.86 --> 2518.42] so I think the fact +[2518.42 --> 2519.56] that it's priced higher +[2519.56 --> 2521.06] makes more sense +[2521.06 --> 2521.52] that way +[2521.52 --> 2522.38] because if they're still +[2522.38 --> 2523.18] going to offer +[2523.18 --> 2525.18] a value option +[2525.18 --> 2525.90] and the Nexus 5 +[2525.90 --> 2527.32] is still a great device +[2527.32 --> 2528.72] then they don't have +[2528.72 --> 2529.36] to worry so much +[2529.36 --> 2530.44] about making the Nexus 6 +[2530.44 --> 2531.48] so competitively priced +[2531.48 --> 2532.52] and I got to wonder +[2532.52 --> 2533.42] if there's pressure +[2533.42 --> 2534.04] on them +[2534.04 --> 2535.26] from the handset makers +[2535.26 --> 2536.60] because it was +[2536.60 --> 2537.26] a few months ago +[2537.26 --> 2538.98] but we saw a report +[2538.98 --> 2539.60] that I think +[2539.60 --> 2540.66] Apple and Samsung +[2540.66 --> 2541.60] were the only +[2541.60 --> 2543.86] profitable handset divisions +[2543.86 --> 2544.78] within their respective +[2544.78 --> 2545.34] companies +[2545.34 --> 2548.48] so guys like HTC +[2548.48 --> 2549.80] who are not doing +[2549.80 --> 2550.42] very well +[2550.42 --> 2551.60] LG's mobile division +[2551.60 --> 2552.32] has been doing better +[2552.32 --> 2552.90] but even then +[2552.90 --> 2553.74] I still don't think +[2553.74 --> 2555.16] it's like an exceptional +[2555.16 --> 2556.12] money maker for them +[2556.12 --> 2557.52] maybe Google +[2557.52 --> 2558.78] jumping in +[2558.78 --> 2559.38] and kind of going +[2559.38 --> 2560.58] yay phone should be +[2560.58 --> 2561.42] commodity cheap +[2561.42 --> 2562.48] like super cheap +[2562.48 --> 2563.58] was upsetting +[2563.58 --> 2564.12] their partners +[2564.12 --> 2566.78] I mean +[2566.78 --> 2568.50] is it something +[2568.50 --> 2569.12] where you think +[2569.12 --> 2570.16] if they get enough +[2570.16 --> 2571.50] investment in the platform +[2571.50 --> 2572.92] that's similar +[2572.92 --> 2573.84] to like how +[2573.84 --> 2575.14] how consoles are sold +[2575.14 --> 2576.78] that they might be able +[2576.78 --> 2578.58] to provide more +[2578.58 --> 2579.06] of an incentive +[2579.06 --> 2579.86] to manufacturers +[2579.86 --> 2580.64] to selling +[2580.64 --> 2582.28] the devices for cheaper +[2582.28 --> 2583.64] like could that be +[2583.64 --> 2585.58] a business tactic +[2585.58 --> 2586.22] that they could +[2586.22 --> 2587.90] use to take on Apple +[2587.90 --> 2589.14] and they're kind of +[2589.14 --> 2590.06] what they then +[2590.06 --> 2590.98] could position as +[2590.98 --> 2592.68] like overpriced devices +[2592.68 --> 2593.74] no I don't think so +[2593.74 --> 2594.30] because +[2594.30 --> 2597.92] it's in no one's +[2597.92 --> 2599.00] on the business side +[2599.00 --> 2599.32] of things +[2599.32 --> 2600.68] it's in no one's +[2600.68 --> 2601.38] best interest +[2601.38 --> 2603.22] to lower the ASP +[2603.22 --> 2603.92] of a category +[2603.92 --> 2605.32] the only time +[2605.32 --> 2606.18] you're going to lower +[2606.18 --> 2607.50] your average sell price +[2607.50 --> 2609.18] is to try to +[2609.18 --> 2610.34] nickel and dime +[2610.34 --> 2610.92] a competitor +[2610.92 --> 2612.08] so for Google +[2612.08 --> 2613.12] why do they care +[2613.12 --> 2614.38] because they've already +[2614.38 --> 2616.14] got the lion's share +[2616.14 --> 2617.02] of the mobile market +[2617.02 --> 2618.10] with Apple +[2618.10 --> 2618.70] in a +[2618.70 --> 2619.70] like decisively +[2619.70 --> 2620.64] in second now +[2620.64 --> 2622.08] and Microsoft +[2622.08 --> 2624.08] just barely even a player +[2624.08 --> 2624.90] and Blackberry +[2624.90 --> 2626.40] barely +[2626.40 --> 2627.58] than that +[2627.58 --> 2629.32] so it's not like +[2629.32 --> 2630.02] if they make +[2630.02 --> 2630.94] high-end devices +[2630.94 --> 2631.34] cheaper +[2631.34 --> 2632.16] they're likely +[2632.16 --> 2633.06] to sell more +[2633.06 --> 2634.16] Android devices +[2634.16 --> 2634.78] in general +[2634.78 --> 2636.04] or gain more market share +[2636.04 --> 2636.94] and the way Google +[2636.94 --> 2637.70] is making their money +[2637.70 --> 2638.38] is through +[2638.38 --> 2639.82] the data mining +[2639.82 --> 2640.64] that they're doing +[2640.64 --> 2641.54] as well as +[2641.54 --> 2642.56] through Google Play Store +[2642.56 --> 2643.02] purchases +[2643.02 --> 2643.72] which maybe +[2643.72 --> 2644.48] they could buy +[2644.48 --> 2645.96] slightly higher-end games +[2645.96 --> 2646.58] for their phones +[2646.58 --> 2647.54] but let's face it +[2647.54 --> 2648.14] people who are going +[2648.14 --> 2648.80] to buy a +[2648.80 --> 2649.86] you know +[2649.86 --> 2651.38] $49 device +[2651.38 --> 2652.68] off of a Chinese website +[2652.68 --> 2654.16] are probably not buying +[2654.16 --> 2655.84] $9 apps anyway +[2655.84 --> 2657.18] so that customer +[2657.18 --> 2658.86] is of no benefit +[2658.86 --> 2659.68] to Google +[2659.68 --> 2661.02] if just because +[2661.02 --> 2661.24] they +[2661.24 --> 2662.16] there are no additional +[2662.16 --> 2662.88] benefit to Google +[2662.88 --> 2663.44] just because they have +[2663.44 --> 2664.34] higher-end phone hardware +[2664.34 --> 2666.76] Kyle +[2666.76 --> 2667.94] I think +[2667.94 --> 2669.44] so do you think +[2669.44 --> 2670.84] because the Nexus 5 +[2670.84 --> 2672.10] was not anywhere near +[2672.10 --> 2673.36] the retail price +[2673.36 --> 2674.46] of the Nexus 6 +[2674.46 --> 2675.10] it's like $300 +[2675.10 --> 2675.86] isn't it +[2675.86 --> 2676.14] yeah +[2676.14 --> 2676.74] so +[2676.74 --> 2679.26] if that's such a wide gap +[2679.26 --> 2680.50] going from 5 to 6 +[2680.50 --> 2681.28] but the specs +[2681.28 --> 2682.36] aren't really that much +[2682.36 --> 2682.68] different +[2682.68 --> 2683.54] are you assuming +[2683.54 --> 2684.02] that Google +[2684.02 --> 2684.76] is going to be releasing +[2684.76 --> 2685.80] some kind of +[2685.80 --> 2686.94] lower-end +[2686.94 --> 2687.80] more affordable +[2687.80 --> 2689.22] price point option +[2689.22 --> 2690.00] in the future +[2690.00 --> 2690.44] or is that +[2690.44 --> 2690.78] do you think +[2690.78 --> 2691.50] that's their strategy +[2691.50 --> 2693.38] behind such a +[2693.38 --> 2694.16] such a high price +[2694.16 --> 2695.16] for the Nexus 6 +[2695.16 --> 2696.00] no I think it'll just +[2696.00 --> 2697.04] still be the Nexus 5 +[2697.04 --> 2697.70] I think they're just +[2697.70 --> 2698.26] not going to +[2698.26 --> 2698.88] not going to have it +[2698.88 --> 2699.24] go away +[2699.24 --> 2699.76] or they're going to +[2699.76 --> 2700.56] leave it for now +[2700.56 --> 2701.38] and see how it goes +[2701.38 --> 2703.80] let's go to Twitter +[2703.80 --> 2704.70] because I kind of said +[2704.70 --> 2705.26] that I would +[2705.26 --> 2706.52] I would listen to people +[2706.52 --> 2707.56] on Twitter about this +[2707.56 --> 2708.92] so here we go +[2708.92 --> 2709.52] Ernie +[2709.52 --> 2711.16] considering Shield Tablet +[2711.16 --> 2712.30] can you suggest comparable +[2712.30 --> 2713.06] tablets in terms of +[2713.06 --> 2713.64] value and features +[2713.64 --> 2714.36] not really +[2714.36 --> 2715.32] if you want the features +[2715.32 --> 2716.26] a Shield Tablet has +[2716.26 --> 2716.94] then you're kind of +[2716.94 --> 2717.92] stuck with the Shield Tablet +[2717.92 --> 2719.78] Irina says +[2719.78 --> 2720.32] thinking of getting +[2720.32 --> 2720.80] a new phone +[2720.80 --> 2721.80] Nexus 6 is not +[2721.80 --> 2722.48] going to be it +[2722.48 --> 2723.64] because it's too expensive +[2723.64 --> 2725.36] and too big +[2725.36 --> 2726.34] Amir says +[2726.34 --> 2727.22] it's too big +[2727.22 --> 2728.16] max size for me +[2728.16 --> 2728.90] is 5 inch +[2728.90 --> 2730.58] lollipop tried too hard +[2730.58 --> 2731.48] with material design +[2731.48 --> 2732.66] it's overdone +[2732.66 --> 2733.54] interesting +[2733.54 --> 2735.60] Phantom Fish says +[2735.60 --> 2736.46] I honestly think +[2736.46 --> 2737.60] it looks similar to iOS +[2737.60 --> 2738.54] bottom swipe up +[2738.54 --> 2739.02] graphics +[2739.02 --> 2739.70] respond to messages +[2739.70 --> 2740.36] from Taskbar +[2740.36 --> 2740.72] etc +[2740.72 --> 2741.82] Micah +[2741.82 --> 2742.84] I have a Nexus 7 +[2742.84 --> 2744.10] but I don't have a smartphone +[2744.10 --> 2745.26] I think the Nexus 6 +[2745.26 --> 2746.00] is too big +[2746.00 --> 2746.72] if I were to buy it +[2746.72 --> 2747.70] I could just use the 7 +[2747.70 --> 2749.12] and that's a good point +[2749.12 --> 2750.86] where the line is blurred +[2750.86 --> 2751.62] I mean Google's +[2751.62 --> 2752.64] last gen +[2752.64 --> 2754.06] tablet device +[2754.06 --> 2755.62] is now +[2755.62 --> 2757.68] similar to the size +[2757.68 --> 2758.70] of their current gen +[2758.70 --> 2759.80] phone device +[2759.80 --> 2763.62] oh yeah +[2763.62 --> 2764.16] we should probably +[2764.16 --> 2764.88] very briefly +[2764.88 --> 2765.52] go through +[2765.52 --> 2766.64] what the Nexus 9 is +[2766.64 --> 2767.72] so it's 8.9 inch +[2767.72 --> 2770.54] 2048 by 1536 IPS display +[2770.54 --> 2772.68] that's a 4 by 3 aspect ratio +[2772.68 --> 2773.34] for those of you +[2773.34 --> 2774.44] who didn't pick up on that +[2774.44 --> 2776.84] so interesting +[2776.84 --> 2777.72] acknowledging that +[2777.72 --> 2778.56] Apple is right +[2778.56 --> 2779.24] about that +[2779.24 --> 2780.04] very interesting +[2780.04 --> 2782.10] 8 megapixel rear camera +[2782.10 --> 2784.16] 1.6 megapixel front camera +[2784.16 --> 2785.34] dual front facing speakers +[2785.34 --> 2786.52] Tegra K1 +[2786.52 --> 2787.92] assumed to be +[2787.92 --> 2789.76] the 2.5 gigahertz dual core model +[2789.76 --> 2790.70] though not confirmed +[2790.70 --> 2792.18] 64-bit processor +[2792.18 --> 2794.08] with 16 or 32 gigs of storage +[2794.08 --> 2794.94] aluminum construction +[2794.94 --> 2796.94] and going to be made by HTC +[2796.94 --> 2798.26] pricing looks a little bit +[2798.26 --> 2799.14] more reasonable here +[2799.14 --> 2800.64] $399 for 16 gig +[2800.64 --> 2803.02] $479 for 32 gig +[2803.02 --> 2805.62] and $599 for 32 gig with LTE +[2805.62 --> 2806.52] but again +[2806.52 --> 2808.78] not Nexus aggressive +[2808.78 --> 2810.36] I mean that was the whole thing +[2810.36 --> 2811.56] with the Nexus 7 is +[2811.56 --> 2812.88] if I recall correctly +[2812.88 --> 2813.92] that thing launched at what +[2813.92 --> 2815.22] $199.99 +[2815.22 --> 2817.02] was the original Nexus 7 price +[2817.02 --> 2819.02] generation 1 +[2819.02 --> 2819.74] I believe so +[2819.74 --> 2820.12] yeah +[2820.12 --> 2821.60] one of them might have been $250 +[2821.60 --> 2823.26] because that was the whole concept +[2823.26 --> 2824.80] bringing the Google +[2824.80 --> 2825.90] you know +[2825.90 --> 2827.82] stock Android experience +[2827.82 --> 2828.92] to the masses +[2828.92 --> 2829.74] that was what made them +[2829.74 --> 2830.30] so appealing +[2830.30 --> 2830.84] well now +[2830.84 --> 2832.50] yeah we get a couple more +[2832.50 --> 2832.98] inches +[2832.98 --> 2834.68] but is that really worth +[2834.68 --> 2835.78] the couple hundred dollars +[2835.78 --> 2836.66] extra we're paying +[2836.66 --> 2838.56] hard to say +[2838.56 --> 2840.12] Nexus 9 versus +[2840.12 --> 2841.02] Shield tablet +[2841.02 --> 2841.82] oh +[2841.82 --> 2842.98] Shield tablet for sure +[2842.98 --> 2843.38] for me +[2843.38 --> 2844.06] if you're a gamer +[2844.06 --> 2844.92] you gotta go for the +[2844.92 --> 2845.42] Shield tablet +[2845.42 --> 2846.54] it has the quad core +[2846.54 --> 2850.40] it has the stylus +[2850.40 --> 2852.80] build quality is not metal +[2852.80 --> 2853.38] but solid +[2853.38 --> 2854.66] and it has GameStream +[2854.66 --> 2856.14] if you're gonna game on it at all +[2856.14 --> 2858.04] then having GameStream +[2858.04 --> 2859.08] from your GeForce PC +[2859.08 --> 2860.00] is a pretty +[2860.00 --> 2861.02] pretty good thing to have +[2861.02 --> 2864.80] alright +[2864.80 --> 2865.92] Jonah the boss +[2865.92 --> 2867.32] the price is not reasonable +[2867.32 --> 2868.76] got it +[2868.76 --> 2871.50] Oliver says +[2871.50 --> 2873.30] so is this Android silver +[2873.30 --> 2874.86] but maybe they kept the Nexus name +[2874.86 --> 2876.08] yeah there were rumors about +[2876.08 --> 2877.02] Android silver +[2877.02 --> 2878.44] maybe silver means +[2878.44 --> 2879.48] not cheap anymore +[2879.48 --> 2880.96] but basically the same thing +[2880.96 --> 2883.14] Kim Chi +[2883.14 --> 2884.76] loved Nexus for the low price point +[2884.76 --> 2885.66] after I heard the price +[2885.66 --> 2886.48] my heart sank +[2886.48 --> 2888.12] down to the ground +[2888.12 --> 2889.68] hmm +[2889.68 --> 2890.42] Phantom Fish +[2890.42 --> 2892.02] I think we saw this tweet before +[2892.02 --> 2895.12] Nexus 5 is max size +[2895.12 --> 2896.06] for my largest hands +[2896.06 --> 2897.78] Nexus 6 is too big +[2897.78 --> 2902.74] wow there's not a whole lot of positivity +[2902.74 --> 2904.08] about this on Twitter here +[2904.08 --> 2904.58] is there +[2904.58 --> 2906.66] I think people were too +[2906.66 --> 2907.32] like +[2907.32 --> 2910.14] people enjoyed the price +[2910.14 --> 2911.82] of the Nexus 5 so much +[2911.82 --> 2913.64] like they were just really expecting +[2913.64 --> 2914.48] oh they're gonna come out +[2914.48 --> 2915.22] with another phone +[2915.22 --> 2916.24] and it's gonna be available +[2916.24 --> 2917.36] and I'm gonna be able to buy it +[2917.36 --> 2918.00] with no contract +[2918.00 --> 2919.46] for three or four hundred bucks +[2919.46 --> 2920.92] of all the Nexus devices +[2920.92 --> 2921.30] really +[2921.30 --> 2922.40] I mean I bought my +[2922.40 --> 2923.86] second generation Nexus 7 +[2923.86 --> 2925.90] for 220 bucks +[2925.90 --> 2927.36] and it wasn't even on sale +[2927.36 --> 2929.00] and if you think about it +[2929.00 --> 2930.06] the Nexus 6 is +[2930.06 --> 2930.84] is basically +[2930.84 --> 2931.60] just like a Nexus +[2931.60 --> 2932.78] Nexus 7 +[2932.78 --> 2933.58] except it's a phone +[2933.58 --> 2934.68] and it's one inch smaller +[2934.68 --> 2936.36] but people who are getting +[2936.36 --> 2937.06] the Nexus 6 +[2937.06 --> 2938.90] will virtually have no reason +[2938.90 --> 2939.60] at all to buy +[2939.60 --> 2941.02] a Nexus 7 tablet +[2941.02 --> 2942.28] especially when +[2942.28 --> 2944.08] it's a third of the price +[2944.08 --> 2945.38] if I recall correctly +[2945.38 --> 2945.74] so +[2945.74 --> 2946.40] so +[2946.40 --> 2947.78] on the phone side +[2947.78 --> 2949.02] we might keep Nexus 5 +[2949.02 --> 2950.18] around for quite a while +[2950.18 --> 2951.16] but on the tablet side +[2951.16 --> 2951.86] it looks like +[2951.86 --> 2952.82] the entry level +[2952.82 --> 2953.78] Nexus tablet +[2953.78 --> 2954.50] is gonna be +[2954.50 --> 2955.28] four hundred bucks +[2955.28 --> 2958.58] Oliver says +[2958.58 --> 2959.16] looking forward +[2959.16 --> 2960.68] to 60 FPS animations +[2960.68 --> 2963.38] not looking forward +[2963.38 --> 2964.22] to apps that don't +[2964.22 --> 2965.36] support material design +[2965.36 --> 2966.64] inconsistency in apps +[2966.64 --> 2967.46] is ew +[2967.46 --> 2968.88] that is a very good point +[2968.88 --> 2970.06] Nexus 6 +[2970.06 --> 2971.10] is most definitely +[2971.10 --> 2971.56] flagship +[2971.56 --> 2972.58] but what about +[2972.58 --> 2973.52] it makes it more expensive +[2973.52 --> 2974.82] than the Nexus 9 tablet +[2974.82 --> 2976.76] that's an interesting +[2976.76 --> 2977.60] that's an interesting +[2977.60 --> 2978.14] point +[2978.14 --> 2980.78] that it can fit +[2980.78 --> 2981.34] in your pocket +[2981.34 --> 2981.98] barely +[2981.98 --> 2983.14] no that it's +[2983.14 --> 2984.26] that the price +[2984.26 --> 2985.30] is so much more +[2985.30 --> 2986.88] than the Nexus 9 tablet +[2986.88 --> 2987.68] in spite of +[2987.68 --> 2988.50] like what are +[2988.50 --> 2989.52] the hardware differences +[2989.52 --> 2990.26] here exactly +[2990.26 --> 2991.40] I guess it's +[2991.40 --> 2993.26] there's less +[2993.26 --> 2994.16] right +[2994.16 --> 2995.56] actually I have to do +[2995.56 --> 2996.32] math to figure that +[2996.32 --> 2997.56] the pixel density +[2997.56 --> 2998.20] isn't as high +[2998.20 --> 2998.66] there's definitely +[2998.66 --> 2999.68] less pixel density +[2999.68 --> 3001.08] unless it's a lower +[3001.08 --> 3002.04] overall resolution +[3002.04 --> 3002.92] on the Nexus 9 +[3002.92 --> 3003.40] so the +[3003.40 --> 3005.64] the display itself +[3005.64 --> 3006.18] could be +[3006.18 --> 3007.90] a pretty decent factor +[3007.90 --> 3008.84] yeah but the funny +[3008.84 --> 3009.48] thing about that +[3009.48 --> 3010.72] is if you've ever shopped +[3010.72 --> 3012.02] for replacement displays +[3012.02 --> 3012.68] for a phone +[3012.68 --> 3013.70] I bought one for +[3013.70 --> 3014.48] a Droid DNA +[3014.48 --> 3015.50] not that long ago +[3015.50 --> 3016.94] they're not expensive +[3016.94 --> 3018.88] like even buying them +[3018.88 --> 3019.34] on eBay +[3019.34 --> 3020.34] as an end user +[3020.34 --> 3021.14] so there's +[3021.14 --> 3022.30] basically like +[3022.30 --> 3023.70] negligible sales volume +[3023.70 --> 3025.62] and you have to pay +[3025.62 --> 3026.16] shipping +[3026.16 --> 3026.66] and so like +[3026.66 --> 3027.50] I think I got it +[3027.50 --> 3029.18] for like 70 or 80 bucks +[3029.18 --> 3029.62] shipped +[3029.62 --> 3030.74] to me +[3030.74 --> 3032.00] so I'm sure +[3032.00 --> 3032.84] Google isn't paying +[3032.84 --> 3033.36] that much +[3033.36 --> 3034.58] for a display +[3034.58 --> 3035.78] for a 5 inch device +[3035.78 --> 3037.04] regardless of pixel density +[3037.04 --> 3037.76] because the Droid DNA +[3037.76 --> 3038.80] was a pretty high end +[3038.80 --> 3039.48] display at the time +[3039.48 --> 3040.02] that was one of the +[3040.02 --> 3041.08] first 1080p phones +[3041.08 --> 3042.92] you need to have +[3042.92 --> 3044.56] iFixit do a tear down +[3044.56 --> 3044.86] of this +[3044.86 --> 3046.12] and list the bomb cost +[3046.12 --> 3046.80] of all of the +[3046.80 --> 3048.20] all the components +[3048.20 --> 3049.56] yeah I'd be interested +[3049.56 --> 3050.68] to see if we're getting +[3050.68 --> 3051.14] more +[3051.14 --> 3053.16] if we're getting closer +[3053.16 --> 3054.46] to Apple like margins +[3054.46 --> 3055.48] on the Nexus 6 +[3055.48 --> 3058.20] Google's profiting +[3058.20 --> 3059.28] are the cameras the same +[3059.28 --> 3060.50] I feel like +[3060.50 --> 3061.60] the cameras are +[3061.60 --> 3062.44] 13 megapixel +[3062.44 --> 3063.58] yeah the camera's nicer +[3063.58 --> 3064.58] 13 megapixel +[3064.58 --> 3066.02] versus 8 megapixel +[3066.02 --> 3068.66] yeah better camera +[3068.66 --> 3069.90] slightly higher +[3069.90 --> 3071.06] slightly higher +[3071.06 --> 3072.02] pixel count +[3072.02 --> 3073.96] it's an AMOLED display +[3073.96 --> 3074.80] so battery life +[3074.80 --> 3075.64] should be pretty strong +[3075.64 --> 3076.54] like there's stuff +[3076.54 --> 3077.30] going that's good +[3077.30 --> 3077.82] for it but +[3077.82 --> 3079.12] I guess it all adds up +[3079.12 --> 3079.58] but yeah +[3079.58 --> 3080.58] it's still a huge +[3080.58 --> 3081.34] gap to fill +[3081.34 --> 3084.16] alright so let's move +[3084.16 --> 3085.02] on to our next +[3085.02 --> 3085.76] next topic +[3085.76 --> 3086.44] this was posted +[3086.44 --> 3087.22] by Bogus +[3087.22 --> 3087.90] on the forum +[3087.90 --> 3089.70] and the source +[3089.70 --> 3090.72] is Goodwin Proctor +[3090.72 --> 3091.56] and this is actually +[3091.56 --> 3092.24] pretty funny +[3092.24 --> 3092.76] if you +[3092.76 --> 3093.70] if you have +[3093.70 --> 3094.32] the kind of sense +[3094.32 --> 3094.68] of humor +[3094.68 --> 3095.44] where you get amused +[3095.44 --> 3096.18] by things that are +[3096.18 --> 3096.86] super sad +[3096.86 --> 3098.20] so Goodwin Proctor +[3098.20 --> 3099.44] publishes a guidebook +[3099.44 --> 3100.44] on litigating +[3100.44 --> 3101.84] with non-practicing +[3101.84 --> 3102.46] entities +[3102.46 --> 3103.46] also known +[3103.46 --> 3106.20] as patent trolls +[3106.20 --> 3108.02] so there's +[3108.02 --> 3108.92] there's some notes here +[3108.92 --> 3109.66] a dramatic surge +[3109.66 --> 3110.42] in patent cases +[3110.42 --> 3112.26] filed by NPEs +[3112.26 --> 3113.28] has captured +[3113.28 --> 3113.78] the attention +[3113.78 --> 3114.66] of corporate America +[3114.66 --> 3115.56] as well as +[3115.56 --> 3116.16] state and federal +[3116.16 --> 3116.78] legislators +[3116.78 --> 3117.98] both private +[3117.98 --> 3119.18] and public sectors +[3119.18 --> 3120.88] fuel ongoing calls +[3120.88 --> 3121.94] for new laws +[3121.94 --> 3122.80] designed to mitigate +[3122.80 --> 3123.78] or eliminate +[3123.78 --> 3125.00] the perceived costs +[3125.00 --> 3126.44] and inefficiencies +[3126.44 --> 3127.86] of patent troll +[3127.86 --> 3128.66] litigation +[3128.66 --> 3130.50] so in their +[3130.50 --> 3131.40] in their whole +[3131.40 --> 3132.20] guide to how +[3132.20 --> 3133.28] to deal with this +[3133.28 --> 3134.14] there were some +[3134.14 --> 3135.58] interesting little nuggets +[3135.58 --> 3136.72] one of which was that +[3136.72 --> 3137.74] it appears to be +[3137.74 --> 3139.32] actually more profitable +[3139.32 --> 3140.64] to patent troll +[3140.64 --> 3142.80] than to deliver products +[3142.80 --> 3144.58] and well not necessarily +[3144.58 --> 3145.28] to deliver products +[3145.28 --> 3145.78] you're gonna make a lot +[3145.78 --> 3146.30] of money if you make +[3146.30 --> 3146.72] a good product +[3146.72 --> 3147.44] and you sell a lot of them +[3147.44 --> 3148.54] but to be a company +[3148.54 --> 3150.04] that actually makes products +[3150.04 --> 3151.80] and try to sue companies +[3151.80 --> 3152.98] that infringe your patents +[3152.98 --> 3154.96] so apparently since 2010 +[3154.96 --> 3155.88] patent trolling +[3155.88 --> 3156.86] has been more profitable +[3156.86 --> 3157.98] than actually delivering +[3157.98 --> 3158.80] a product or service +[3158.80 --> 3159.34] to market +[3159.34 --> 3161.00] non-practicing entities +[3161.00 --> 3162.38] tend to be more successful +[3162.38 --> 3163.04] in court +[3163.04 --> 3164.64] than practicing entities +[3164.64 --> 3165.98] and it's getting to the point +[3165.98 --> 3167.22] where legitimate businesses +[3167.22 --> 3169.02] might start doing it as well +[3169.02 --> 3170.64] so the stats published +[3170.64 --> 3171.50] by Goodwin Proctor +[3171.50 --> 3172.82] say that +[3172.82 --> 3173.82] so between 2010 +[3173.82 --> 3174.46] and 2013 +[3174.46 --> 3176.12] the median gain +[3176.12 --> 3177.00] from a patent suit +[3177.00 --> 3177.62] by trolls +[3177.62 --> 3179.32] is 8.5 million +[3179.32 --> 3180.60] the median gain +[3180.60 --> 3181.90] for legitimate businesses +[3181.90 --> 3183.44] was 2.5 million +[3183.44 --> 3185.28] so that was in 2013 +[3185.28 --> 3186.90] US dollars +[3186.90 --> 3189.14] this is like saying +[3189.14 --> 3189.88] me and Paul +[3189.88 --> 3190.48] Paul and I +[3190.48 --> 3191.24] could make more money +[3191.24 --> 3192.18] as drug dealers +[3192.18 --> 3193.46] than running an honest +[3193.46 --> 3194.18] YouTube channel +[3194.18 --> 3195.58] well we probably could +[3195.58 --> 3196.64] but the problem here +[3196.64 --> 3197.64] is they're doing this +[3197.64 --> 3198.02] under +[3198.02 --> 3199.14] within the bounds +[3199.14 --> 3199.80] of the law +[3199.80 --> 3201.12] yeah and on the backs +[3201.12 --> 3201.98] of the actual +[3201.98 --> 3202.96] YouTube channels +[3202.96 --> 3204.14] some relaxed morals +[3204.14 --> 3204.92] you'd have to have +[3204.92 --> 3206.64] to swing this way +[3206.64 --> 3208.98] there's certain types +[3208.98 --> 3210.22] of things +[3210.22 --> 3211.28] that people do +[3211.28 --> 3212.88] that I really +[3212.88 --> 3213.56] really hate +[3213.56 --> 3214.36] and despise +[3214.36 --> 3214.94] and think is +[3214.94 --> 3215.86] kind of the lowest +[3215.86 --> 3217.04] how do you live +[3217.04 --> 3217.74] with yourself +[3217.74 --> 3218.42] as a person +[3218.42 --> 3219.96] if you do this +[3219.96 --> 3222.74] or work for a company +[3222.74 --> 3223.42] that does this +[3223.42 --> 3224.92] I don't know +[3224.92 --> 3225.62] I have to have +[3225.62 --> 3226.98] some kind of +[3226.98 --> 3229.60] moral okayness +[3229.60 --> 3230.20] with the job +[3230.20 --> 3230.74] that I'm doing +[3230.74 --> 3231.30] I have to have +[3231.30 --> 3231.88] some sort of +[3231.88 --> 3232.50] investment +[3232.50 --> 3233.26] and like okay +[3233.26 --> 3233.54] you know +[3233.54 --> 3234.76] I'm at least +[3234.76 --> 3235.66] on some level +[3235.66 --> 3236.96] like benefiting +[3236.96 --> 3237.68] society +[3237.68 --> 3238.34] or producing +[3238.34 --> 3238.94] something +[3238.94 --> 3240.06] that's of value +[3240.06 --> 3240.56] but like +[3240.56 --> 3241.34] this type of +[3241.34 --> 3241.70] crap +[3241.70 --> 3242.38] I just +[3242.38 --> 3243.62] I despise +[3243.62 --> 3244.88] like it's +[3244.88 --> 3245.62] it's really +[3245.62 --> 3246.92] really terrible +[3246.92 --> 3247.42] greed +[3247.42 --> 3248.14] is a monster +[3248.14 --> 3249.06] in all of us +[3249.06 --> 3249.72] yes +[3249.72 --> 3251.20] well put Kyle +[3251.20 --> 3253.44] dramatic +[3253.44 --> 3254.30] beer drinking +[3254.30 --> 3255.16] drink beer now +[3255.16 --> 3256.20] so +[3256.20 --> 3257.20] this is +[3257.20 --> 3257.56] this is +[3257.56 --> 3258.30] this is actually +[3258.30 --> 3259.02] this is great +[3259.02 --> 3259.96] so Michael Strapp +[3259.96 --> 3260.82] a partner at Goodwin +[3260.82 --> 3261.58] and one of the +[3261.58 --> 3262.18] guides authors +[3262.18 --> 3262.78] explained +[3262.78 --> 3264.04] why +[3264.04 --> 3265.16] the damages +[3265.16 --> 3266.38] awarded to trolls +[3266.38 --> 3267.00] are disproportionately +[3267.00 --> 3267.42] high +[3267.42 --> 3267.96] so there's an +[3267.96 --> 3269.20] economic model +[3269.20 --> 3270.96] of patent trolling +[3270.96 --> 3271.70] that includes +[3271.70 --> 3272.38] building up +[3272.38 --> 3273.44] like a legal +[3273.44 --> 3274.26] war chest +[3274.26 --> 3275.02] by squeezing +[3275.02 --> 3275.54] settlements +[3275.54 --> 3276.74] from dozens +[3276.74 --> 3277.40] of smaller +[3277.40 --> 3277.94] companies +[3277.94 --> 3279.06] then suing +[3279.06 --> 3279.92] a big fish +[3279.92 --> 3280.50] like a Google +[3280.50 --> 3281.32] or an Apple +[3281.32 --> 3282.20] or something like that +[3282.20 --> 3283.60] so the patent +[3283.60 --> 3284.02] trolls +[3284.02 --> 3285.20] are more capable +[3285.20 --> 3285.82] of absorbing +[3285.82 --> 3286.62] a loss +[3286.62 --> 3288.26] in these litigations +[3288.26 --> 3289.08] because they've +[3289.08 --> 3290.00] got their war chest +[3290.00 --> 3290.58] and +[3290.58 --> 3291.96] they don't have +[3291.96 --> 3292.92] actual +[3292.92 --> 3293.64] you know +[3293.64 --> 3294.26] physical +[3294.26 --> 3295.02] inventory +[3295.02 --> 3296.50] that is going +[3296.50 --> 3297.66] to cost them +[3297.66 --> 3298.28] money +[3298.28 --> 3299.04] if all of a sudden +[3299.04 --> 3300.42] they can't sell it +[3300.42 --> 3300.96] because +[3300.96 --> 3301.72] you know +[3301.72 --> 3302.52] someone sued them +[3302.52 --> 3303.70] over a patent +[3303.70 --> 3304.34] infringement +[3304.34 --> 3304.98] for example +[3304.98 --> 3306.64] the trolls +[3306.64 --> 3307.44] victories in the +[3307.44 --> 3308.08] small suits +[3308.08 --> 3309.06] can be used as +[3309.06 --> 3309.56] evidence +[3309.56 --> 3310.48] in their suit +[3310.48 --> 3311.76] against the big fish +[3311.76 --> 3313.18] something that a big fish +[3313.18 --> 3314.08] going after someone +[3314.08 --> 3315.00] who's infringing a patent +[3315.00 --> 3316.10] won't necessarily have +[3316.10 --> 3317.02] because they might not be +[3317.02 --> 3317.58] chasing down +[3317.58 --> 3318.60] every Tom, Dick, and Harry +[3318.60 --> 3320.16] and then patent trolls +[3320.16 --> 3321.50] normally try to settle +[3321.50 --> 3322.68] outside of court +[3322.68 --> 3323.70] and the big fish +[3323.70 --> 3324.66] will usually just +[3324.66 --> 3325.78] take a big loss +[3325.78 --> 3326.44] up front +[3326.44 --> 3327.32] rather than the +[3327.32 --> 3328.34] guaranteed legal fees +[3328.34 --> 3329.18] to defend themselves +[3329.18 --> 3329.80] and the threat +[3329.80 --> 3330.94] of an even higher fee +[3330.94 --> 3331.84] if the court +[3331.84 --> 3333.14] does find in favor +[3333.14 --> 3333.94] of the troll +[3333.94 --> 3335.94] unbelievable +[3335.94 --> 3336.84] I mean +[3336.84 --> 3337.94] I'm not +[3337.94 --> 3339.68] I'm not a legal expert +[3339.68 --> 3340.74] I think that much +[3340.74 --> 3341.46] should be obvious +[3341.46 --> 3342.10] but +[3342.10 --> 3343.66] something +[3343.66 --> 3344.94] has to be +[3344.94 --> 3345.64] done +[3345.64 --> 3346.66] you can't have +[3346.66 --> 3347.74] legitimate companies +[3347.74 --> 3348.64] that are innovating +[3348.64 --> 3349.72] and investing +[3349.72 --> 3350.64] in technologies +[3350.64 --> 3351.46] like Apple +[3351.46 --> 3352.08] and Google +[3352.08 --> 3353.18] and Microsoft +[3353.18 --> 3354.36] being sued +[3354.36 --> 3355.04] by people who +[3355.04 --> 3356.20] aren't actually +[3356.20 --> 3357.24] making anything +[3357.24 --> 3358.36] every time they +[3358.36 --> 3358.92] turn around +[3358.92 --> 3360.52] I think it's also +[3360.52 --> 3361.22] because like +[3361.22 --> 3362.62] this type of activity +[3362.62 --> 3363.22] is +[3363.22 --> 3364.46] it's not very +[3364.46 --> 3364.98] tangible +[3364.98 --> 3365.64] you know +[3365.64 --> 3366.18] it's like +[3366.18 --> 3367.92] there's legal talk +[3367.92 --> 3369.16] involved with it +[3369.16 --> 3369.80] and that sort of thing +[3369.80 --> 3370.46] so it's difficult +[3370.46 --> 3371.60] for people to grasp +[3371.60 --> 3372.10] at first +[3372.10 --> 3372.38] like +[3372.38 --> 3373.72] how it even works +[3373.72 --> 3375.36] but like +[3375.36 --> 3376.00] I mean +[3376.00 --> 3377.18] equate it to +[3377.18 --> 3378.08] like cheating +[3378.08 --> 3378.84] in a video game +[3378.84 --> 3379.92] like an aim bot +[3379.92 --> 3380.82] something like that +[3380.82 --> 3381.24] that's +[3381.24 --> 3382.38] that's what it equates +[3382.38 --> 3382.58] with +[3382.58 --> 3383.12] I mean +[3383.12 --> 3384.38] much worse than that +[3384.38 --> 3384.70] obviously +[3384.70 --> 3385.40] because there's a lot +[3385.40 --> 3386.20] more money +[3386.20 --> 3386.86] at stake +[3386.86 --> 3387.34] but like +[3387.34 --> 3388.52] think of the +[3388.52 --> 3389.56] hatred +[3389.56 --> 3391.06] that people direct +[3391.06 --> 3392.06] towards cheaters +[3392.06 --> 3393.48] online at video games +[3393.48 --> 3394.56] and then like +[3394.56 --> 3395.90] transfer that over +[3395.90 --> 3396.70] to real life +[3396.70 --> 3397.26] please +[3397.26 --> 3398.82] and direct it +[3398.82 --> 3399.52] towards these people +[3399.52 --> 3400.16] eight and a half +[3400.16 --> 3401.04] million dollars +[3401.04 --> 3401.62] on average +[3401.62 --> 3402.46] yeah +[3402.46 --> 3404.52] it's like +[3404.52 --> 3404.86] damn it +[3404.86 --> 3405.48] that guy stole +[3405.48 --> 3406.66] my headshot +[3406.66 --> 3408.68] poverty bot +[3408.68 --> 3410.00] oh god +[3410.00 --> 3410.80] poverty bot +[3410.80 --> 3415.82] that's terrible +[3415.82 --> 3416.66] this is something +[3416.66 --> 3417.38] to be pissed off +[3417.38 --> 3417.64] about +[3417.64 --> 3418.36] and is this +[3418.36 --> 3418.72] you know +[3418.72 --> 3419.48] has there not been +[3419.48 --> 3420.26] that much backlash +[3420.26 --> 3421.06] against this sort of +[3421.06 --> 3422.44] you know +[3422.44 --> 3423.46] this is more of a +[3423.46 --> 3425.12] recent crime +[3425.12 --> 3426.00] against humanity +[3426.00 --> 3426.76] so to speak +[3426.76 --> 3426.84] well you can't do +[3426.84 --> 3427.58] anything about it +[3427.58 --> 3428.22] that's the problem +[3428.22 --> 3429.02] is the way the laws +[3429.02 --> 3429.76] are set up now +[3429.76 --> 3430.42] is you +[3430.42 --> 3431.66] you can't +[3431.66 --> 3432.52] you can't do +[3432.52 --> 3432.86] anything +[3432.86 --> 3434.74] so what are you +[3434.74 --> 3435.46] supposed to do +[3435.46 --> 3437.16] nothing +[3437.16 --> 3439.70] I mean there's +[3439.70 --> 3440.60] yeah +[3440.60 --> 3441.74] I don't have +[3441.74 --> 3442.36] I don't have any +[3442.36 --> 3443.44] good actionable +[3443.44 --> 3444.96] like suggestions +[3444.96 --> 3445.92] for people to take +[3445.92 --> 3446.72] to fix this +[3446.72 --> 3447.68] that's that's probably +[3447.68 --> 3449.06] the biggest problem +[3449.06 --> 3449.90] I mean this +[3449.90 --> 3450.60] this was one thing +[3450.60 --> 3451.88] when we were working +[3451.88 --> 3452.48] for Newegg +[3452.48 --> 3453.56] that I always appreciated +[3453.56 --> 3454.18] about them +[3454.18 --> 3455.16] was that they +[3455.16 --> 3456.04] their legal team +[3456.04 --> 3456.74] will actually go +[3456.74 --> 3457.66] after some people +[3457.66 --> 3458.90] they've won several +[3458.90 --> 3460.24] cases against +[3460.24 --> 3461.20] some pretty large +[3461.20 --> 3461.96] patent trolls +[3461.96 --> 3463.02] and that type +[3463.02 --> 3463.76] of thing can be +[3463.76 --> 3464.10] yeah +[3464.10 --> 3464.60] I think there was +[3464.60 --> 3465.46] a patent for +[3465.46 --> 3467.30] like one click +[3467.30 --> 3468.66] one click checkout +[3468.66 --> 3469.58] or something like that +[3469.58 --> 3470.48] that Newegg basically +[3470.48 --> 3471.66] said screw off +[3471.66 --> 3472.10] we're gonna find it +[3472.10 --> 3472.42] yeah there was a +[3472.42 --> 3473.58] one click checkout thing +[3473.58 --> 3474.16] there's like +[3474.16 --> 3474.94] the shopping cart +[3474.94 --> 3475.96] the shopping cart patent +[3475.96 --> 3476.68] like somebody +[3476.68 --> 3477.12] tried to be like +[3477.12 --> 3478.74] oh any online retailer +[3478.74 --> 3479.64] who has a virtual +[3479.64 --> 3480.48] shopping cart +[3480.48 --> 3481.88] like we have a patent +[3481.88 --> 3482.78] on that so they all +[3482.78 --> 3483.28] owe us money +[3483.28 --> 3484.26] but Newegg like +[3484.26 --> 3485.24] fought them +[3485.24 --> 3486.88] and took them down +[3486.88 --> 3487.50] and that sort of thing +[3487.50 --> 3488.28] but I mean that's still +[3488.28 --> 3489.48] just that's like a few +[3489.48 --> 3491.00] there's like a few wins +[3491.00 --> 3491.64] that they have +[3491.64 --> 3494.88] the amount of this +[3494.88 --> 3495.58] that goes on +[3495.58 --> 3496.48] by comparison +[3496.48 --> 3497.74] I think is massive +[3497.74 --> 3498.56] and I mean just +[3498.56 --> 3499.32] that's what this article +[3499.32 --> 3499.72] is about +[3499.72 --> 3500.56] it's obviously +[3500.56 --> 3501.50] insanely profitable +[3501.50 --> 3503.96] and the snowballing +[3503.96 --> 3504.86] effect that has +[3504.86 --> 3506.00] is insanely profitable +[3506.00 --> 3507.94] things like this +[3507.94 --> 3508.84] where people are making +[3508.84 --> 3509.56] that much money +[3509.56 --> 3510.58] they can then offer +[3510.58 --> 3511.10] that money +[3511.10 --> 3512.72] to people who are smart +[3512.72 --> 3513.62] who can like +[3513.62 --> 3514.18] figure out ways +[3514.18 --> 3514.78] to do it better +[3514.78 --> 3516.18] like that's been the +[3516.18 --> 3516.84] problem in the states +[3516.84 --> 3517.68] for quite a long time +[3517.68 --> 3518.42] is a lot of like +[3518.42 --> 3519.28] the smartest people +[3519.28 --> 3520.38] and the smartest graduates +[3520.38 --> 3521.42] from schools +[3521.42 --> 3522.88] are not going into like +[3522.88 --> 3523.34] science +[3523.34 --> 3524.36] the science sector +[3524.36 --> 3524.94] and that sort of thing +[3524.94 --> 3525.86] they're going into finance +[3525.86 --> 3527.14] to like learn ways +[3527.14 --> 3528.24] to game them +[3528.24 --> 3528.94] Wall Street better +[3528.94 --> 3529.66] and that sort of thing +[3529.66 --> 3530.40] it kind of sucks +[3530.40 --> 3531.22] anyway sorry to +[3531.22 --> 3532.04] go off topic +[3532.04 --> 3533.02] speaking of +[3533.02 --> 3534.86] money being important +[3534.86 --> 3535.80] let's go ahead +[3535.80 --> 3537.20] and do our sponsor +[3537.20 -->

they're both +[3786.28 --> 3787.82] full time web developers +[3787.82 --> 3788.12] now +[3788.12 --> 3789.30] they build websites +[3789.30 --> 3789.80] professionally +[3789.80 --> 3791.42] and I was trying to get +[3791.42 --> 3792.70] my own website started +[3792.70 --> 3793.12] for +[3793.12 --> 3794.04] for my own +[3794.04 --> 3794.98] personal YouTube channel +[3794.98 --> 3795.78] and I asked them +[3795.78 --> 3796.50] for any suggestions +[3796.50 --> 3797.38] of just like a +[3797.38 --> 3798.26] no-brainer site +[3798.26 --> 3798.76] that would just +[3798.76 --> 3799.58] kind

+[3815.34 --> 3816.78] is an idiot +[3816.78 --> 3817.84] and he convinced me +[3817.84 --> 3818.74] of the wrong choice +[3818.74 --> 3819.06] clearly +[3819.06 --> 3820.88] and I succumbed +[3820.88

4015.58] 60 bucks a month +[4015.58 --> 4016.14] for compliments +[4016.14 --> 4017.42] I have something nice +[4017.42 --> 4018.02] to say about +[4018.02 --> 4018.58] Blackberry +[4018.58 --> 4020.52] they can't keep +[4020.52 --> 4021.18] their passport +[4021.18 --> 4021.82] in stock +[4021.82 --> 4022.68] I don't know +[4022.68 --> 4023.40] if this is more +[4023.40 --> 4024.10] to do with +[4024.10 --> 4024.72] the fact that +[4024.72 --> 4025.38] they didn't produce +[4025.38 --> 4025.88] enough of them +[4025.88 --> 4026.56] or more to do +[4026.56 --> 4027.24] with that +[4027.24 --> 4029.60] it's a really +[4029.60 --> 4030.70] great amazing +[4030.70 --> 4032.02] square device +[4032.02 --> 4032.54] with a keyboard +[4032.54 --> 4032.88] on it +[4032.88 --> 4033.26] that people +[4033.26 --> 4033.74] really really +[4033.74 --> 4034.36] want to buy +[4034.36 --> 4035.94] but there you go +[4035.94 --> 4036.34] they sold +[4036.34 --> 4038.38] 200,000 passports +[4038.38 --> 4040.32] within 2 days +[4040.32 --> 4041.10] of launch +[4041.10 --> 4041.48] and stock +[4041.48 --> 4041.90] was apparently +[4041.90 --> 4043.22] completely wiped out +[4043.22 --> 4044.72] after 6 hours +[4044.72 --> 4045.56] of sales +[4045.56 --> 4046.62] Amazon alerted +[4046.62 --> 4047.04] purchasers +[4047.04 --> 4047.48] by email +[4047.48 --> 4048.10] that their passport +[4048.10 --> 4048.64] had an expected +[4048.64 --> 4049.14] delivery date +[4049.14 --> 4050.08] of October 17th +[4050.08 --> 4050.62] to 20th +[4050.62 --> 4051.32] with shop +[4051.32 --> 4051.98] Blackberry +[4051.98 --> 4053.78] quoting October 29th +[4053.78 --> 4055.10] as the delivery date +[4055.10 --> 4056.44] so things are +[4056.44 --> 4057.06] looking up +[4057.06 --> 4057.76] maybe for the +[4057.76 --> 4058.40] Blackberry brand +[4058.40 --> 4058.78] as they saw +[4058.78 --> 4059.54] an operating loss +[4059.54 --> 4060.90] of only 207 million +[4060.90 --> 4061.62] last quarter +[4061.62 --> 4062.90] below analyst expectations +[4062.90 --> 4064.34] they expected +[4064.34 --> 4065.40] a loss of 16 cents +[4065.40 --> 4065.80] per share +[4065.80 --> 4066.50] and only ended up +[4066.50 --> 4067.46] losing 2 cents +[4067.46 --> 4067.94] per share +[4067.94 --> 4069.46] after exclusions +[4069.46 --> 4072.38] so I haven't tried +[4072.38 --> 4072.98] the passport +[4072.98 --> 4074.60] I feel like +[4074.60 --> 4077.46] I was very dismissive +[4077.46 --> 4077.76] of it +[4077.76 --> 4078.68] when I first heard +[4078.68 --> 4079.20] about it +[4079.20 --> 4082.54] but would love +[4082.54 --> 4083.56] to hear what you guys +[4083.56 --> 4084.76] think about the passport +[4084.76 --> 4085.32] actually +[4085.32 --> 4086.44] we're going to do +[4086.44 --> 4087.04] a straw poll +[4087.04 --> 4087.60] for this one +[4087.60 --> 4088.74] rather than a Twitter blitz +[4088.74 --> 4089.50] just because +[4089.50 --> 4090.76] that way we can have +[4090.76 --> 4091.22] something up +[4091.22 --> 4091.78] while we move on +[4091.78 --> 4092.48] to the next topic +[4092.48 --> 4093.12] we don't actually +[4093.12 --> 4094.14] have a ton of time +[4094.14 --> 4094.46] left +[4094.46 --> 4095.90] which is sort of +[4095.90 --> 4096.44] unfortunate +[4096.44 --> 4098.14] but um +[4098.14 --> 4099.54] so much deep +[4099.54 --> 4100.70] conversation going on +[4100.70 --> 4102.30] Blackberry passport +[4102.30 --> 4103.70] yay +[4103.70 --> 4104.90] nay +[4104.90 --> 4105.84] meh +[4105.84 --> 4106.42] those are going +[4106.42 --> 4107.02] to be the options +[4107.02 --> 4107.58] because I don't have +[4107.58 --> 4108.18] a whole lot of time +[4108.18 --> 4109.14] to create this poll +[4109.14 --> 4112.44] alright +[4112.44 --> 4113.78] it's an important one +[4113.78 --> 4115.26] it is an important one +[4115.26 --> 4116.22] I really want to know +[4116.22 --> 4117.22] what people think +[4117.22 --> 4118.44] of stuff like this +[4118.44 --> 4119.46] like what the heck +[4119.46 --> 4120.20] is this thing +[4120.20 --> 4122.28] I realize now +[4122.28 --> 4123.20] that I haven't actually +[4123.20 --> 4124.10] shown a picture of it +[4124.10 --> 4124.60] on screen +[4124.60 --> 4125.40] so I should probably +[4125.40 --> 4125.88] do that +[4125.88 --> 4126.50] just for folks +[4126.50 --> 4126.66] who aren't +[4126.66 --> 4126.84] looks like we got +[4126.84 --> 4128.04] a spammer in the chat +[4128.04 --> 4128.38] Linus +[4128.38 --> 4128.84] I think you need +[4128.84 --> 4129.56] to kick someone +[4129.56 --> 4130.58] yeah I know right +[4130.58 --> 4131.22] I should kick that +[4131.22 --> 4132.08] Linus tech guy +[4132.08 --> 4132.94] what a jerk +[4132.94 --> 4133.74] imposter +[4133.74 --> 4136.06] alright +[4136.06 --> 4137.66] here it is +[4137.66 --> 4140.62] what the +[4140.62 --> 4141.18] is +[4141.18 --> 4142.22] is this Blackberry +[4142.22 --> 4142.72] still running +[4142.72 --> 4143.24] their own +[4143.24 --> 4144.02] their own operating +[4144.02 --> 4144.46] system +[4144.46 --> 4145.94] yes +[4145.94 --> 4147.10] but apparently +[4147.10 --> 4148.12] the integration +[4148.12 --> 4149.34] of the Play Store +[4149.34 --> 4150.60] is much better now +[4150.60 --> 4151.30] and you can basically +[4151.30 --> 4152.24] just install +[4152.24 --> 4153.14] Android apps +[4153.14 --> 4153.84] oh +[4153.84 --> 4154.20] that's cool +[4154.20 --> 4154.64] so they're not +[4154.64 --> 4155.52] nearly as limited +[4155.52 --> 4156.16] in terms of +[4156.16 --> 4156.86] app support +[4156.86 --> 4158.26] right there it is +[4158.26 --> 4158.64] alright +[4158.64 --> 4159.52] Linus screen share +[4159.52 --> 4159.86] boom +[4159.86 --> 4161.08] Blackberry passport +[4161.08 --> 4163.56] got your full keyboard +[4163.56 --> 4164.64] also got a nice +[4164.64 --> 4165.68] large touch screen +[4165.68 --> 4168.20] looks like a very +[4168.20 --> 4168.74] you know +[4168.74 --> 4169.68] a productivity +[4169.68 --> 4170.72] friendly +[4170.72 --> 4172.72] more square +[4172.72 --> 4173.84] aspect ratio +[4173.84 --> 4174.60] so I can see +[4174.60 --> 4175.34] what people like +[4175.34 --> 4175.82] about it +[4175.82 --> 4177.16] I'm just +[4177.16 --> 4178.32] just not sure +[4178.32 --> 4178.88] if it's +[4178.88 --> 4179.98] if it's the right +[4179.98 --> 4180.76] thing for me +[4180.76 --> 4181.38] necessarily +[4181.38 --> 4182.78] alright +[4182.78 --> 4183.74] so let's move on +[4183.74 --> 4184.42] to the next +[4184.42 --> 4185.28] topic here +[4185.28 --> 4188.58] wow +[4188.58 --> 4189.16] there's a lot +[4189.16 --> 4189.60] of topics +[4189.60 --> 4190.28] that I haven't +[4190.28 --> 4191.02] even touched yet +[4191.02 --> 4191.78] we're just gonna +[4191.78 --> 4192.32] have to go through +[4192.32 --> 4192.98] these pretty fast +[4192.98 --> 4193.84] Facebook's next phone +[4193.84 --> 4194.36] might be built +[4194.36 --> 4195.04] by Samsung +[4195.04 --> 4195.76] there's been a few +[4195.76 --> 4196.54] meetings between +[4196.54 --> 4197.72] top brass +[4197.72 --> 4198.68] at both companies +[4198.68 --> 4200.16] and the failure +[4200.16 --> 4201.22] of the HTC +[4201.22 --> 4201.94] first +[4201.94 --> 4202.56] which was the +[4202.56 --> 4203.52] first Facebook phone +[4203.52 --> 4204.90] is not stopping +[4204.90 --> 4205.64] them from planning +[4205.64 --> 4206.22] a new phone +[4206.22 --> 4206.80] necessarily +[4206.80 --> 4208.54] and I don't +[4208.54 --> 4209.14] think we're gonna +[4209.14 --> 4209.92] see like a +[4209.92 --> 4210.58] like a Facebook +[4210.58 --> 4211.50] only phone +[4211.50 --> 4212.16] or anything like +[4212.16 --> 4212.42] that +[4212.42 --> 4213.20] but it's more +[4213.20 --> 4213.80] likely to be +[4213.80 --> 4214.36] something with +[4214.36 --> 4215.02] some Facebook +[4215.02 --> 4216.10] features integrated +[4216.10 --> 4216.48] into it +[4216.48 --> 4217.24] I mean Samsung's +[4217.24 --> 4217.88] one of the few +[4217.88 --> 4218.78] Android handset +[4218.78 --> 4219.44] makers that is +[4219.44 --> 4220.64] still really +[4220.64 --> 4221.34] sticking with +[4221.34 --> 4223.24] their own skin +[4223.24 --> 4223.78] on top of +[4223.78 --> 4224.42] Android that is +[4224.42 --> 4224.98] really quite +[4224.98 --> 4225.56] different from +[4225.56 --> 4226.62] how Android is +[4226.62 --> 4227.46] supposed to work +[4227.46 --> 4228.84] LG actually as +[4228.84 --> 4229.40] well I guess they +[4229.40 --> 4229.96] still have quite a +[4229.96 --> 4230.48] few differences +[4230.48 --> 4232.24] but I could see +[4232.24 --> 4233.08] Samsung potentially +[4233.08 --> 4233.74] working in more +[4233.74 --> 4234.58] Facebook integration +[4234.58 --> 4235.34] not sure how +[4235.34 --> 4236.04] beneficial that would +[4236.04 --> 4236.76] necessarily be to +[4236.76 --> 4237.54] users but hey +[4237.54 --> 4238.18] whatever it's +[4238.18 --> 4238.88] touch whiz so it +[4238.88 --> 4239.18] wouldn't be the +[4239.18 --> 4239.64] first time +[4239.64 --> 4242.40] YouTube ads +[4242.40 --> 4242.94] linking to +[4242.94 --> 4243.62] malicious sites +[4243.62 --> 4244.50] this was posted +[4244.50 --> 4244.96] on the forum +[4244.96 --> 4245.44] by rainfall +[4245.44 --> 4246.12] within and it's +[4246.12 --> 4246.64] from the trend +[4246.64 --> 4247.70] micro blog that +[4247.70 --> 4248.14] we got this +[4248.14 --> 4248.64] information +[4248.64 --> 4249.78] basically these +[4249.78 --> 4250.70] ads were appearing +[4250.70 --> 4251.46] in videos with +[4251.46 --> 4252.72] up to 11 million +[4252.72 --> 4253.54] views and they +[4253.54 --> 4254.02] don't take you +[4254.02 --> 4254.64] directly to +[4254.64 --> 4255.28] malicious sites +[4255.28 --> 4256.40] but rather first +[4256.40 --> 4257.68] through advertising +[4257.68 --> 4258.94] sites so the +[4258.94 --> 4260.38] exploit used in +[4260.38 --> 4260.98] this attack was +[4260.98 --> 4261.90] the sweet orange +[4261.90 --> 4262.68] exploit kit which +[4262.68 --> 4263.16] uses certain +[4263.16 --> 4263.94] vulnerabilities in +[4263.94 --> 4264.84] Java Flash and +[4264.84 --> 4266.18] IE and the +[4266.18 --> 4266.86] final payload of +[4266.86 --> 4267.36] the attack are +[4267.36 --> 4268.12] variants of the +[4268.12 --> 4269.08] Covter malware +[4269.08 --> 4269.84] family which is +[4269.84 --> 4271.20] known for ransomware +[4271.20 --> 4271.94] attacks so there +[4271.94 --> 4273.30] have been 113,000 +[4273.30 --> 4274.68] victims with 95% of +[4274.68 --> 4275.22] them being from the +[4275.22 --> 4276.46] US mind you there +[4276.46 --> 4277.02] was a patch for +[4277.02 --> 4277.74] this attack in May +[4277.74 --> 4279.00] 2013 so if you keep +[4279.00 --> 4279.66] your windows up to +[4279.66 --> 4280.30] date you're probably +[4280.30 --> 4282.08] okay now we've got +[4282.08 --> 4282.66] something that I'm +[4282.66 --> 4283.52] sure Paul and Kyle +[4283.52 --> 4284.06] are going to want to +[4284.06 --> 4285.80] weigh in Bethesda to +[4285.80 --> 4287.88] officially support 60 +[4287.88 --> 4290.08] FPS with the evil +[4290.08 --> 4291.82] within on PC this +[4291.82 --> 4292.52] is posted by +[4292.52 --> 4293.26] Spoodie on the +[4293.26 --> 4293.76] forum and the +[4293.76 --> 4294.58] original article is +[4294.58 --> 4295.94] from PC Gamer and +[4295.94 --> 4297.30] it sounds like great +[4297.30 --> 4298.94] news on the surface +[4298.94 --> 4301.38] I mean we get some +[4301.38 --> 4302.60] console commands for +[4302.60 --> 4304.20] things like god mode +[4304.20 --> 4306.06] which is cool no clip +[4306.06 --> 4308.88] which is cool but by +[4308.88 --> 4312.02] 30 FPS they mean +[4312.02 --> 4313.24] they're unlocking it +[4313.24 --> 4314.38] from the previously +[4314.38 --> 4316.26] rumored 30 frames per +[4316.26 --> 4318.54] second lock to 60 FPS +[4318.54 --> 4321.26] only so you may run +[4321.26 --> 4323.80] the game at 30 FPS or +[4323.80 --> 4325.98] 60 FPS but not more +[4325.98 --> 4328.00] FPS and they are +[4328.00 --> 4328.76] saying that there's +[4328.76 --> 4329.16] going to be +[4329.16 --> 4329.92] potentially some +[4329.92 --> 4330.80] glitches in the game +[4330.80 --> 4331.74] at 60 frames per +[4331.74 --> 4333.32] second at launch but +[4333.32 --> 4334.06] that they will fix +[4334.06 --> 4335.84] them and anything +[4335.84 --> 4338.46] else you can set +[4338.46 --> 4339.18] whatever resolution +[4339.18 --> 4339.94] you want but it's +[4339.94 --> 4340.48] going to be glitchy +[4340.48 --> 4340.80] and they're not +[4340.80 --> 4341.46] going to fix it +[4341.46 --> 4344.90] well kids can I get +[4344.90 --> 4346.96] better than 30 but +[4346.96 --> 4348.16] it's still not ideal +[4348.16 --> 4350.76] for gamers that have +[4350.76 --> 4352.72] 144 hertz or 120 +[4352.72 --> 4353.68] hertz refresh rate +[4353.68 --> 4354.82] monitors I mean I +[4354.82 --> 4355.84] think they're still +[4355.84 --> 4356.06] going to be +[4356.06 --> 4356.84] disappointed you're +[4356.84 --> 4357.68] going to appease some +[4357.68 --> 4358.94] of the population but +[4358.94 --> 4360.58] for the majority it +[4360.58 --> 4361.34] just seems like they're +[4361.34 --> 4362.28] trying to cover up +[4362.28 --> 4363.82] their mistake or +[4363.82 --> 4367.70] whatnot so is it like +[4367.70 --> 4368.78] trying I feel like I'm +[4368.78 --> 4369.76] trying to look a gift +[4369.76 --> 4370.66] horse in the mouth here +[4370.66 --> 4372.66] because it's nice that +[4372.66 --> 4374.90] they I mean no no +[4374.90 --> 4376.00] actually never mind I'm +[4376.00 --> 4376.88] changing my mind right +[4376.88 --> 4377.86] now screw that because +[4377.86 --> 4378.68] we should not be like +[4378.68 --> 4379.54] oh well it was nice of +[4379.54 --> 4380.24] them to at least give +[4380.24 --> 4381.10] 60 years they should have +[4381.10 --> 4381.86] given 60 at the +[4381.86 --> 4383.06] beginning without +[4383.06 --> 4384.24] having exactly without +[4384.24 --> 4385.02] having to come out and +[4385.02 --> 4386.06] be like oh well maybe +[4386.06 --> 4387.00] give you 60 but we're +[4387.00 --> 4387.64] not really going to +[4387.64 --> 4388.54] actually put any effort +[4388.54 --> 4389.64] into it or support it or +[4389.64 --> 4390.88] anything like that this +[4390.88 --> 4392.72] is this is half-assed and +[4392.72 --> 4395.60] and and and and and we +[4395.60 --> 4397.02] expect your full ass next +[4397.02 --> 4398.38] time Bethesda I have a +[4398.38 --> 4399.76] negative opinion of it +[4399.76 --> 4400.86] that's what I've decided +[4400.86 --> 4403.56] yes okay I'm not I'm not +[4403.56 --> 4408.10] impressed all right well +[4408.10 --> 4408.96] there's a couple things I +[4408.96 --> 4409.68] need to mention here +[4409.68 --> 4410.78] really briefly first of +[4410.78 --> 4411.78] all we got our poll +[4411.78 --> 4412.86] results for the BlackBerry +[4412.86 --> 4413.92] passport with the +[4413.92 --> 4415.46] overwhelming majority +[4415.46 --> 4417.68] saying meh or nay and +[4417.68 --> 4420.30] 17% saying yay which is +[4420.30 --> 4421.98] interesting because 17% of +[4421.98 --> 4423.04] the smartphone market would +[4423.04 --> 4424.46] still be a very viable +[4424.46 --> 4425.66] business for BlackBerry +[4425.66 --> 4429.22] also I realized that I +[4429.22 --> 4430.78] never showed the picture of +[4430.78 --> 4433.08] the extra item from 5-4 so +[4433.08 --> 4434.36] once again I have screwed +[4434.36 --> 4436.68] up a 5-4 integration that +[4436.68 --> 4438.12] is the Henley that you get +[4438.12 --> 4439.32] don't worry it doesn't +[4439.32 --> 4440.64] have a crazy pattern on it +[4440.64 --> 4441.54] it's just made from a +[4441.54 --> 4442.50] ribbed material actually +[4442.50 --> 4444.32] looks quite nice so there +[4444.32 --> 4445.98] you go I screwed up all +[4445.98 --> 4447.46] the things and once again +[4447.46 --> 4451.94] go team Linus this is +[4451.94 --> 4452.84] why this is why you need +[4452.84 --> 4454.72] to click so but yeah +[4454.72 --> 4456.52] because normally I can kind +[4456.52 --> 4457.98] of do these things while +[4457.98 --> 4460.16] he well he handles a topic +[4460.16 --> 4461.28] on his own but I don't +[4461.28 --> 4462.32] trust you guys that much +[4462.32 --> 4463.58] yeah all right for good +[4463.58 --> 4464.76] reason well I did have a +[4464.76 --> 4465.82] half an hour to look over +[4465.82 --> 4467.80] all the topics so oh yeah +[4467.80 --> 4469.36] back to the evil within +[4469.36 --> 4470.58] there are other problems +[4470.58 --> 4472.08] too you can change the +[4472.08 --> 4474.70] aspect ratio but some +[4474.70 --> 4477.24] gameplay prompts appear in +[4477.24 --> 4479.02] the cinematic black bars +[4479.02 --> 4480.70] that are going to only be +[4480.70 --> 4481.74] there if you're running in +[4481.74 --> 4482.90] the correct cinematic +[4482.90 --> 4485.72] aspect ratio so you just +[4485.72 --> 4486.90] won't see those things if +[4486.90 --> 4488.14] you change the aspect ratio +[4488.14 --> 4489.56] and no that will not be +[4489.56 --> 4490.42] fixed either apparently +[4490.42 --> 4491.44] if they were really +[4491.44 --> 4492.66] serious about like +[4492.66 --> 4493.80] wanting to give people a +[4493.80 --> 4494.84] better experience of that +[4494.84 --> 4495.88] higher frame rate they +[4495.88 --> 4496.68] would just make it all +[4496.68 --> 4498.10] open source so that the +[4498.10 --> 4499.48] modders could go in who +[4499.48 --> 4500.42] are really passionate about +[4500.42 --> 4501.74] it fix all those issues +[4501.74 --> 4502.76] and make it run at 60 +[4502.76 --> 4504.34] hertz or 60 frames per +[4504.34 --> 4505.66] second or even beyond +[4505.66 --> 4506.44] you don't even have to +[4506.44 --> 4507.44] make it open source for +[4507.44 --> 4508.36] that you just have to +[4508.36 --> 4510.08] enable modders yeah +[4510.08 --> 4511.20] allow some mods to go in +[4511.20 --> 4513.04] there yeah okay so of +[4513.04 --> 4514.30] course sorry wrong thing +[4514.30 --> 4515.88] so of course there was a +[4515.88 --> 4518.20] big Apple event this week +[4518.20 --> 4519.74] and I guess I'll have to +[4519.74 --> 4520.90] do a very quick summary +[4520.90 --> 4521.76] because quite frankly +[4521.76 --> 4522.88] there wasn't that much +[4522.88 --> 4524.00] of interest I mean Apple +[4524.00 --> 4524.86] pay is coming Monday +[4524.86 --> 4525.68] which is really cool +[4525.68 --> 4526.60] they've got hundreds of +[4526.60 --> 4528.00] banks signed up they've +[4528.00 --> 4529.00] got lots of merchants +[4529.00 --> 4531.60] signed up I mean for me +[4531.60 --> 4533.08] personally the time +[4533.08 --> 4534.68] savings of whipping out +[4534.68 --> 4536.74] my phone and trying it +[4536.74 --> 4538.58] first and then realizing +[4538.58 --> 4539.80] that you know half the +[4539.80 --> 4540.96] time plus it's not going +[4540.96 --> 4541.68] to work and needing to +[4541.68 --> 4542.56] take out my card anyway +[4542.56 --> 4545.48] is very limited but the +[4545.48 --> 4546.94] privacy improvements do +[4546.94 --> 4548.04] look pretty impressive +[4548.04 --> 4550.52] so Apple basically stores +[4550.52 --> 4551.42] any of your card +[4551.42 --> 4552.72] information in that +[4552.72 --> 4555.16] isolated non-network +[4555.16 --> 4556.26] connected chip that's +[4556.26 --> 4557.04] right on the phone the +[4557.04 --> 4557.80] same place they keep +[4557.80 --> 4558.34] your fingerprint +[4558.34 --> 4560.12] information and they +[4560.12 --> 4561.34] share none of this info +[4561.34 --> 4563.28] with the retailer which +[4563.28 --> 4564.40] is which is very very +[4564.40 --> 4565.58] cool so you don't have +[4565.58 --> 4567.86] to worry about your you +[4567.86 --> 4569.28] know ID being seen by +[4569.28 --> 4570.30] someone as you hand it +[4570.30 --> 4571.24] to them you don't have +[4571.24 --> 4572.94] to worry about your +[4572.94 --> 4574.14] credit card number being +[4574.14 --> 4576.40] more easy being easier +[4576.40 --> 4577.72] to steal I mean actually +[4577.72 --> 4579.16] there was a leak there +[4579.16 --> 4580.56] was a leak this week +[4580.56 --> 4581.36] wasn't there another +[4581.36 --> 4582.72] retailer lost a bunch of +[4582.72 --> 4584.72] credit cards what another +[4584.72 --> 4586.78] one I think so I didn't +[4586.78 --> 4588.08] catch that yeah I know +[4588.08 --> 4589.32] I'm sorry you're right +[4589.32 --> 4590.56] whatever it happens from +[4590.56 --> 4591.88] time to time so the +[4591.88 --> 4592.62] retailer themselves +[4592.62 --> 4593.54] wouldn't even need your +[4593.54 --> 4594.72] credit card information in +[4594.72 --> 4595.42] order to process your +[4595.42 --> 4596.44] payment which is very cool +[4596.44 --> 4598.60] and it's coming also we +[4598.60 --> 4600.80] get a retina 5k 27 inch +[4600.80 --> 4602.28] iMac that's super thin +[4602.28 --> 4603.86] comes with mobile 290 +[4603.86 --> 4606.16] GPUs and a 295 whatever +[4606.16 --> 4607.58] that is not 100% sure +[4607.58 --> 4608.94] what that is but don't +[4608.94 --> 4610.16] get too wrapped up in how +[4610.16 --> 4611.56] great a mobile 290 sounds +[4611.56 --> 4612.62] because that's actually a +[4612.62 --> 4614.02] pitcairn GPU so it's very +[4614.02 --> 4616.38] similar to a 7870 actually +[4616.38 --> 4618.22] not really that special in +[4618.22 --> 4619.36] terms of performance this is +[4619.36 --> 4622.30] not a mobile 290 to a +[4622.30 --> 4624.96] regular 290 is not what a +[4624.96 --> 4627.52] mobile you know GTX 980 is +[4627.52 --> 4630.38] to a desktop GTX 980 AMD +[4630.38 --> 4632.38] hasn't gotten there yet so +[4632.38 --> 4635.30] 5k 5120 by 2880 res it's +[4635.30 --> 4637.04] got Thunderbolt 2 SSD is +[4637.04 --> 4638.42] not standard still for some +[4638.42 --> 4639.76] reason it's got the latest +[4639.76 --> 4641.42] core i7s and that all +[4641.42 --> 4642.56] sounds pretty good if you're +[4642.56 --> 4643.52] one of those people who's +[4643.52 --> 4645.18] into all-in-ones rather than +[4645.18 --> 4646.14] having something that just +[4646.14 --> 4647.94] functions as a display and +[4647.94 --> 4648.64] then something that you +[4648.64 --> 4650.48] connect to it because that is +[4650.48 --> 4652.82] more modular which is good +[4652.82 --> 4656.62] yeah the new iPad Air 2 and +[4656.62 --> 4659.26] iPad Mini 3 are coming so +[4659.26 --> 4660.80] they've sold 225 million +[4660.80 --> 4662.26] iPads evidently since they +[4662.26 --> 4663.30] started selling them which is +[4663.30 --> 4664.98] unbelievable that's like +[4664.98 --> 4667.08] eight times the number of +[4667.08 --> 4668.92] people in Canada all together +[4668.92 --> 4671.34] it's a lot of iPads yeah yeah +[4671.34 --> 4672.88] that's a lot of iPads this is +[4672.88 --> 4674.22] starting from the very first +[4674.22 --> 4677.02] iPad ever created okay so and +[4677.02 --> 4678.02] I think that's something like +[4678.02 --> 4679.94] over four times what Samsung +[4679.94 --> 4681.54] has sold total in spite of them +[4681.54 --> 4682.80] having so many models of +[4682.80 --> 4684.94] tablets so it's very very +[4684.94 --> 4686.64] impressive and then we did +[4686.64 --> 4687.64] you did you happen to hear +[4687.64 --> 4689.00] about the uh the the +[4689.00 --> 4691.36] Microsoft Surface fiasco the +[4691.36 --> 4692.22] deal they signed with the +[4692.22 --> 4695.00] NFL yeah I did okay that I +[4695.00 --> 4696.20] thought that was yeah with all +[4696.20 --> 4697.24] the commentators calling them +[4697.24 --> 4699.02] iPads on air even though yeah +[4699.02 --> 4701.74] yeah I mean the iPad is so to +[4701.74 --> 4703.68] the average person is that's +[4703.68 --> 4705.88] just what a tablet is iPad right +[4705.88 --> 4707.80] exactly Kleenex and it's it's +[4707.80 --> 4708.84] funny because in the tech space +[4708.84 --> 4710.04] we don't think about that +[4710.04 --> 4711.94] because obviously an iPad's an +[4711.94 --> 4713.84] iPad and other tablets other +[4713.84 --> 4716.10] tablet but no to regular people +[4716.10 --> 4717.26] they just don't give two craps +[4717.26 --> 4718.94] and an iPad's a tablet I love +[4718.94 --> 4720.56] got to love regular people so +[4720.56 --> 4722.58] the new iPad Air 2 is 18% +[4722.58 --> 4723.68] thinner the screen is less +[4723.68 --> 4725.94] reflective it's got an a8x SoC +[4725.94 --> 4727.62] which actually has 50% more +[4727.62 --> 4729.34] transistors than the a8 that we +[4729.34 --> 4731.10] find in the iPhone 6 and 6 plus +[4731.10 --> 4733.06] very interesting not sure +[4733.06 --> 4734.90] necessarily exactly where all +[4734.90 --> 4736.06] those transistors went but +[4736.06 --> 4737.20] performance should be pretty +[4737.20 --> 4738.56] darn impressive it's got a better +[4738.56 --> 4740.80] camera so you can be a pad hole +[4740.80 --> 4743.82] walk around take pictures and now +[4743.82 --> 4745.58] features touch ID which I guess is +[4745.58 --> 4748.72] good also the the Mac Mini got an +[4748.72 --> 4750.90] update with the latest Intel CPUs +[4750.90 --> 4752.24] with Intel Iris graphics to +[4752.24 --> 4753.64] Thunderbolt 2 ports PCI Express +[4753.64 --> 4755.44] storage and AC wireless oh yeah the +[4755.44 --> 4756.64] wireless on the new iPad is +[4756.64 --> 4757.98] apparently faster too so I guess +[4757.98 --> 4759.54] that's cool so the one the one +[4759.54 --> 4760.80] thing about this whole Apple event +[4760.80 --> 4762.94] that's kind of irritating me is +[4762.94 --> 4765.04] since since the new version of the +[4765.04 --> 4767.34] operating system is called Yosemite I +[4767.34 --> 4768.64] feel like they've been co-opting +[4768.64 --> 4770.42] images of Yosemite and using them +[4770.42 --> 4771.82] for Apple branding and it pisses me +[4771.82 --> 4772.52] off +[4772.52 --> 4776.42] mother nature is going to sue Apple +[4776.42 --> 4779.16] as the ultimate irony who's gonna go +[4779.16 --> 4780.52] and be like no half dome is a +[4780.52 --> 4782.64] registered trademark of Yosemite and +[4782.64 --> 4785.54] and Apple and apparently now also an +[4785.54 --> 4788.44] Apple like I don't want I don't want +[4788.44 --> 4789.80] half dome to be used to sell Apple +[4789.80 --> 4791.60] products Apple is reportedly suing +[4791.60 --> 4793.78] mother nature for the usage of half +[4793.78 --> 4795.38] dome it's all that's marketing +[4795.38 --> 4796.08] branding +[4796.08 --> 4798.66] okay sorry okay sorry oh yeah I +[4798.66 --> 4800.54] guess I didn't really talk about the +[4800.54 --> 4802.66] new OS X at all I guess I just don't +[4802.66 --> 4803.08] care +[4803.08 --> 4808.96] and yo cheers well it's not it's not +[4808.96 --> 4810.38] that I don't care because it's bad I +[4810.38 --> 4811.66] just don't care because I didn't use +[4811.66 --> 4813.30] the old one so all these new amazing +[4813.30 --> 4815.00] differences mean nothing to me because +[4815.00 --> 4817.46] I don't have any frustrations with the +[4817.46 --> 4818.86] old one or anything that I like about +[4818.86 --> 4820.16] the old one it just is what it is +[4820.16 --> 4822.38] speaking of things that are what they +[4822.38 --> 4824.84] are augmented reality might not be +[4824.84 --> 4826.34] necessarily what we thought it was +[4826.34 --> 4828.68] going to be I mean I think that Google +[4828.68 --> 4831.56] Glass looked very augmented reality from +[4831.56 --> 4832.70] the beginning like we were kind of +[4832.70 --> 4833.72] thinking we were going to be wearing +[4833.72 --> 4836.68] glasses or goggles or whatever else but +[4836.68 --> 4838.48] there's this is a rumor right now but +[4838.48 --> 4840.44] Google and others may invest five +[4840.44 --> 4843.08] million five hundred million dollars into +[4843.08 --> 4846.26] augmented reality company magic leap who +[4846.26 --> 4847.58] isn't going to be putting a lens in +[4847.58 --> 4849.68] front of your eyes but rather is +[4849.68 --> 4852.14] planning to basically beam the image +[4852.14 --> 4856.10] into your eyes allegedly solving the +[4856.10 --> 4859.28] need for higher resolution in this +[4859.28 --> 4861.98] solutions like oculus rift with the with +[4861.98 --> 4864.62] a headset are going to have so the vision +[4864.62 --> 4866.02] would be to have the product display an +[4866.02 --> 4867.86] image into the eye so that instead of +[4867.86 --> 4870.20] having to pull out a phone you would just +[4870.20 --> 4874.52] see things in the world around you that I +[4874.52 --> 4876.02] mean it's funny they're calling it +[4876.02 --> 4878.14] cinematic reality because they think +[4878.14 --> 4880.36] augmented reality is a bit of an and +[4880.36 --> 4882.64] undersells the technology a little bit +[4882.64 --> 4884.26] because of how realistic it is but I +[4884.26 --> 4887.70] mean this is what it is here's an +[4887.70 --> 4890.44] elephant an augmented reality elephant in +[4890.44 --> 4892.06] the hand of someone you can call it +[4892.06 --> 4894.22] whatever you want but it's still +[4894.22 --> 4897.82] augmented reality looks incredibly cool +[4897.82 --> 4900.34] and gaming with the technology like this +[4900.34 --> 4901.60] where you don't even have to wear a +[4901.60 --> 4903.82] headset and you just see stuff that +[4903.82 --> 4911.08] isn't there wow so I'm getting this image +[4911.08 --> 4913.38] in my head of like kind of like in the +[4913.38 --> 4915.00] matrix you know when he wakes up and +[4915.00 --> 4916.58] there's just the rows and rows of people +[4916.58 --> 4918.04] you know they're all all in their little +[4918.04 --> 4920.68] pods like something like that with all +[4920.68 --> 4922.16] these people and and these little +[4922.16 --> 4923.82] devices in front of them just beaming +[4923.82 --> 4926.00] images like directly into their brain but +[4926.00 --> 4927.64] but really what this has inspired me to +[4927.64 --> 4930.22] do is developed my own device kind of +[4930.22 --> 4932.50] based on this same technology which is +[4932.50 --> 4934.06] gonna be a food delivery system that +[4934.06 --> 4936.52] puts a tube down your throat and just +[4936.52 --> 4938.26] puts the food directly into your +[4938.26 --> 4939.94] stomach that way you don't have to +[4939.94 --> 4941.88] worry about the whole chewing and +[4941.88 --> 4944.00] swallowing thing you could partner with +[4944.00 --> 4945.88] partner with the guys that make +[4945.88 --> 4949.14] Soylent exactly yeah Luke's been on +[4949.14 --> 4952.08] has is Luke like does Luke look paler +[4952.08 --> 4953.46] or anything like that or is he like +[4953.46 --> 4955.40] becoming more and more stronger than he +[4955.40 --> 4957.94] has ever been no he seems he seems all +[4957.94 --> 4960.34] right he's not entirely on Soylent though +[4960.34 --> 4963.30] he does he does eat it for you know most +[4963.30 --> 4965.34] of his nutritional stuff but he still +[4965.34 --> 4968.82] eats but mostly just because eating is +[4968.82 --> 4970.48] kind of nice and things taste good and +[4970.48 --> 4972.72] Soylent doesn't taste that great I'm +[4972.72 --> 4975.04] glad you've been feeding him yeah well I +[4975.04 --> 4977.14] don't feed him he has to feed himself +[4977.14 --> 4979.34] okay I just watch +[4979.34 --> 4985.10] because it's liquid right so there's just +[4985.10 --> 4986.96] these visuals I have of Linus feeding +[4986.96 --> 4989.38] Luke with like a big baby bottle or +[4989.38 --> 4989.78] something +[4989.78 --> 4994.48] right that could be a t-shirt that's +[4994.48 --> 4997.10] the worst image that's ever been in +[4997.10 --> 4999.22] anyone's head during this show I'm +[4999.22 --> 5000.86] happy to have brought it to all of your +[5000.86 --> 5001.24] fans +[5001.24 --> 5003.78] thank you +[5003.78 --> 5007.58] you guys will never be on my show again +[5007.58 --> 5013.20] get up all right so skype kick I guess +[5013.20 --> 5014.84] would be how we pronounce this QIK this +[5014.84 --> 5016.34] was originally posted by goodbytes on +[5016.34 --> 5019.10] the forum the article is from theverge.com +[5019.10 --> 5024.04] and this is supposed to be a an attempt to +[5024.04 --> 5027.50] take over mobile video messaging so it +[5027.50 --> 5030.32] this actually started out as just a video +[5030.32 --> 5033.08] consumption platform but oh I just +[5033.08 --> 5034.64] realized I'm not actually screen sharing +[5034.64 --> 5036.14] with you guys so there you go they're +[5036.14 --> 5038.24] showing it running on Windows Phone as if +[5038.24 --> 5041.84] that matters iOS and Android unless that +[5041.84 --> 5045.02] HTC 1 M8 is a Windows Phone version of +[5045.02 --> 5047.42] the HTC 1 M8 which it probably isn't +[5047.42 --> 5048.38] because I don't think anyone ever +[5048.38 --> 5050.96] actually bought one of those although I'd +[5050.96 --> 5052.16] love to be proven wrong you know it's +[5052.16 --> 5054.44] amazing how many people are hating on me +[5054.44 --> 5058.16] for my negativity about the Windows Phone +[5058.16 --> 5061.58] HTC 1 M8 in my review and yet I have +[5061.58 --> 5064.28] never seen one I've never heard any report +[5064.28 --> 5066.38] of anyone owning it ever and people +[5066.38 --> 5068.48] misinterpreted a lot of what I said I +[5068.48 --> 5071.90] didn't say Windows 8 phone is a platform +[5071.90 --> 5074.48] for nobody what I said was this is a +[5074.48 --> 5078.02] device for nobody a high-end truly high-end +[5078.02 --> 5081.38] premium cost device that runs Windows Phone +[5081.38 --> 5083.78] because the people who buy high-end devices +[5083.78 --> 5086.36] are going to have needs for their mobile +[5086.36 --> 5088.46] devices that go beyond what Windows Phone +[5088.46 --> 5091.10] can do because the app ecosystem is so +[5091.10 --> 5093.92] immature speaking of which I'm still super +[5093.92 --> 5095.84] upset that the NFC chip in here only does +[5095.84 --> 5097.28] Apple Pay and doesn't do other stuff +[5097.28 --> 5099.08] anyway it started as a video streaming +[5099.08 --> 5100.64] service was available on mobile devices +[5100.64 --> 5102.62] before YouTube so this is kind of an old +[5102.62 --> 5104.42] platform it's all done through your +[5104.42 --> 5106.10] mobile phone number no account sign up is +[5106.10 --> 5108.38] necessary it's been being pitched as an +[5108.38 --> 5110.12] alternative to text messaging and can +[5110.12 --> 5111.44] easily switch between the front and rear +[5111.44 --> 5113.66] cameras while recording there's no preview +[5113.66 --> 5116.84] or processing and it has a 42 second max +[5116.84 --> 5118.64] recording you can send to one person or a +[5118.64 --> 5119.90] group and if your friend doesn't have +[5119.90 --> 5121.82] kick they will receive an SMS with +[5121.82 --> 5125.60] instructions on how to download it so +[5125.60 --> 5128.54] you can pre-record up to 12 messages for +[5128.54 --> 5130.28] use when you're in a rush so just +[5130.28 --> 5132.80] pre-recorded like hey I can't talk right +[5132.80 --> 5134.48] now I don't know why people would want +[5134.48 --> 5136.34] that instead of an SMS but sure whatever +[5136.34 --> 5138.62] yeah messages disappear after two weeks if +[5138.62 --> 5141.60] they aren't deleted like practically +[5141.60 --> 5143.12] speaking to me this this seems like +[5143.12 --> 5144.86] something that might be a competitor for +[5144.86 --> 5146.54] like vine or something like that but +[5146.54 --> 5149.04] like no because it's messaging not +[5149.04 --> 5150.68] broadcast it's more like like like +[5150.68 --> 5152.50] snapchat it's more like a competitor to +[5152.50 --> 5154.66] snapchat but like so now we can have +[5154.66 --> 5156.58] videos of penises instead of pictures +[5156.58 --> 5158.34] of them like is that you can do video +[5158.34 --> 5160.26] with snapchat too that was a benefit that +[5160.26 --> 5161.58] I hadn't considered but I mean the +[5161.58 --> 5163.22] beautiful the beautiful thing about a +[5163.22 --> 5164.64] text message is when I get a text +[5164.64 --> 5166.42] message I can glance at my phone without +[5166.42 --> 5167.96] unlocking without doing anything and it +[5167.96 --> 5170.28] can appear on one or two lines and I +[5170.28 --> 5172.34] can immediately know what was said and +[5172.34 --> 5174.80] it's faster than watching a short video +[5174.80 --> 5176.50] of somebody being like hey man I'll call +[5176.50 --> 5177.94] you later or something like that like +[5177.94 --> 5180.16] well that's a stupid reason to send a +[5180.16 --> 5181.54] video to someone just to tell them that +[5181.54 --> 5182.76] you'll call them later but that's what +[5182.76 --> 5185.46] it has pre-recorded like messages like +[5185.46 --> 5187.62] hey I'm in class right now like that's +[5187.62 --> 5188.94] the kind of thing people use that stuff +[5188.94 --> 5191.46] for so the pre-recorded stuff is useless +[5191.46 --> 5193.40] it's all garbage it's short message +[5193.40 --> 5194.96] service it's supposed to be like a quick +[5194.96 --> 5196.72] communication a quick interaction with +[5196.72 --> 5198.98] someone and feels this feels like a +[5198.98 --> 5200.94] step backwards this feels like video +[5200.94 --> 5204.46] voicemail all right exactly what one +[5204.46 --> 5205.82] application I could see this in is +[5205.82 --> 5207.56] like let's say you're in a place that +[5207.56 --> 5208.72] you've never been before and you're +[5208.72 --> 5210.26] meeting someone there for the first +[5210.26 --> 5211.90] time you could send them a message and +[5211.90 --> 5213.56] say hey I'm here waiting for you you +[5213.56 --> 5215.38] can also send them an MMS with a picture +[5215.38 --> 5218.34] of you yeah but the picture is is only +[5218.34 --> 5220.24] go so far if you're in a location they +[5220.24 --> 5222.18] need to see visually where you are 360 +[5222.18 --> 5223.72] degree view you can actually give them a +[5223.72 --> 5225.48] panoramic shot of where you are maybe +[5225.48 --> 5227.08] in this location so they can recognize it +[5227.08 --> 5228.44] when they walk up to the place so you +[5228.44 --> 5230.78] could send them a panoramic picture so +[5230.78 --> 5232.28] you can send them a panoramic picture +[5232.28 --> 5234.88] or video you could send them three +[5234.88 --> 5239.82] pictures fail Kyle fail no put a filter +[5239.82 --> 5241.46] on it Linus Kyle's already put a filter +[5241.46 --> 5243.42] on Kyle has already invested in quick I +[5243.42 --> 5245.82] think which is why he's really I am the +[5245.82 --> 5248.04] first investor in quick is it quick or +[5248.04 --> 5251.12] kick I don't care if it's a Q I feel +[5251.12 --> 5253.44] like it should be but there's no you +[5253.44 --> 5257.28] no you're right it's okay the U is not +[5257.28 --> 5259.74] silent because it's not there that's +[5259.74 --> 5262.62] not proper like use of Q anyway this +[5262.62 --> 5264.36] is cool this was posted by r are +[5264.36 --> 5266.64] bolson on the forum and it's the Carl +[5266.64 --> 5269.76] Zeiss VR one so we know about Samsung's +[5269.76 --> 5272.16] VR headset for the note and we know +[5272.16 --> 5274.62] about Google cardboard which is obviously +[5274.62 --> 5276.42] not going to be the greatest solution +[5276.42 --> 5278.04] ever because it's like going to fall +[5278.04 --> 5280.14] apart and stuff but this is the VR one +[5280.14 --> 5281.70] which is a more flexible one so you +[5281.70 --> 5284.76] basically just buy like a like a tray so +[5284.76 --> 5287.22] here's what one of the really I can't +[5287.22 --> 5289.60] mouse over this without this stupid +[5289.60 --> 5291.60] thing well whatever you have to envision +[5291.60 --> 5293.40] my mouse over there so you buy a tray +[5293.40 --> 5295.02] that your phone slips into anything from +[5295.02 --> 5298.14] 4.7 to 5.2 inches and then you can use +[5298.14 --> 5301.56] your phone as a best VR so that's cool I +[5301.56 --> 5305.10] guess moving right along PewDiePie may be +[5305.10 --> 5307.20] starting his own YouTube network so this +[5307.20 --> 5311.46] was an interview with pulse2.com and then +[5311.46 --> 5314.52] he was also on the cover of icon magazine.se +[5314.52 --> 5315.84] this was posted by Tech Dreamer on the +[5315.84 --> 5318.00] forum and actually generated a lot of +[5318.00 --> 5321.12] discussion he makes an estimated 4 +[5321.12 --> 5323.58] million per year in ad sales so that's +[5323.58 --> 5326.16] gross and that was last year so I can +[5326.16 --> 5327.42] assure you it's a lot more this year +[5327.42 --> 5328.98] plans to leave maker studios in +[5328.98 --> 5330.30] December to create his own network +[5330.30 --> 5332.22] thinks other networks have been managed +[5332.22 --> 5334.02] in such an incredibly poor way that it's +[5334.02 --> 5336.00] silly and would like to help other +[5336.00 --> 5338.64] youtubers and say what you want about +[5338.64 --> 5341.52] pewds you know how you might like or +[5341.52 --> 5344.10] dislike his content or whatever the +[5344.10 --> 5347.34] guy's smart and maybe I should join his +[5347.34 --> 5350.94] network how do you know he's smart how +[5350.94 --> 5352.80] do you know he's not just incredibly +[5352.80 --> 5355.92] lucky and anyone remotely attractive for +[5355.92 --> 5358.32] you know to personality anyone anyone at +[5358.32 --> 5360.54] the top of any field is smart guarantee it +[5360.54 --> 5365.52] I don't know I've been mom had some some +[5365.52 --> 5370.82] fame there for you octom on octom on yeah +[5370.82 --> 5373.14] but that's not the top of a field that's +[5373.14 --> 5375.24] a 15 minutes of fame I'm talking someone +[5375.24 --> 5376.68] who is in a field of her own in a +[5376.68 --> 5381.00] sustained repeated manner beat everyone +[5381.00 --> 5383.32] else who competes at something I've seen +[5383.32 --> 5385.62] some actors who wouldn't line up with +[5385.62 --> 5387.84] that but what does PewDiePie do that no +[5387.84 --> 5389.90] one else can do I mean I hold on a second +[5389.90 --> 5393.06] okay remember you some actors that are +[5393.06 --> 5395.80] dumb sure but I said at the top of a +[5395.80 --> 5397.78] field PewDiePie is the number one +[5397.78 --> 5399.98] youtuber put me at the number one of +[5399.98 --> 5402.50] anything where the person's an idiot you +[5402.50 --> 5404.94] can't do it are you still on a network +[5404.94 --> 5407.36] or at this point Linus uh yeah I'm I'm +[5407.36 --> 5408.74] with twitch right now but I'm actually +[5408.74 --> 5412.34] probably switching on youtube on twitch +[5412.34 --> 5414.18] tv I'm still gonna stay partnered with +[5414.18 --> 5415.20] twitch I'm still gonna do all my +[5415.20 --> 5417.22] streaming on twitch but on youtube I'll +[5417.22 --> 5420.62] potentially be moving over to um well I +[5420.62 --> 5421.72] feel bad for not remembering maker +[5421.72 --> 5424.46] studios no okay isn't that isn't that +[5424.46 --> 5426.02] what you do that PewDiePie is leaving +[5426.02 --> 5427.70] PewDiePie is leaving that no I think +[5427.70 --> 5429.22] that might be why I have maker studios +[5429.22 --> 5430.90] in my head I'm gonna have to look it up +[5430.90 --> 5433.24] now when's the Linus network coming in +[5433.24 --> 5434.98] what can I join and do you feel like +[5434.98 --> 5436.36] you have some big shoes to feel and +[5436.36 --> 5437.80] sure yes I'll join your network +[5437.80 --> 5439.72] replacing PewDiePie thanks for asking +[5439.72 --> 5443.50] studios network sorry I feel I feel the +[5443.50 --> 5445.60] full screen full screen sorry not maker +[5445.60 --> 5447.64] I've talked to every network at some +[5447.64 --> 5449.08] point in hey we're on full screen +[5449.08 --> 5450.34] yeah full screen yeah full screen is +[5450.34 --> 5453.22] awesome yeah so I so I might be joining +[5453.22 --> 5459.12] full screen okay I I like full screen I +[5459.12 --> 5461.50] don't have a problem with them all right +[5461.50 --> 5463.82] so let's go ahead and see if we've got +[5463.82 --> 5465.82] any more oh yeah Netflix raises the price +[5465.82 --> 5468.10] for 4k video streaming this was posted by +[5468.10 --> 5470.06] tech dreamer on the forum and this is +[5470.06 --> 5472.24] actually the second price hike we've seen +[5472.24 --> 5475.44] from netlink Netflix in like what a year so +[5475.44 --> 5477.54] and that was after for a long time the +[5477.54 --> 5480.00] pricing being very very stable so if you +[5480.00 --> 5481.50] signed up for a 4k enabled account +[5481.50 --> 5482.82] already you get to keep your current +[5482.82 --> 5485.34] subscription price until August 12 2016 +[5485.34 --> 5486.92] but for new subscribers the monthly +[5486.92 --> 5489.60] price for 4k will be 12 bucks so you can +[5489.60 --> 5492.28] enjoy 4k content like Breaking Bad House +[5492.28 --> 5495.48] of Cards and the Smurfs on your 4k TV +[5495.48 --> 5497.40] that you also probably don't own yet +[5497.40 --> 5501.06] although 4k doesn't work on all TVs you +[5501.06 --> 5502.80] need to have a supported TV so once again +[5502.80 --> 5504.80] early adopters for any new video +[5504.80 --> 5507.80] standard get the old kick in the teeth +[5507.80 --> 5510.16] way to go you spent way too much on +[5510.16 --> 5512.16] something that not only didn't work when +[5512.16 --> 5513.54] you bought it but isn't even going to +[5513.54 --> 5515.18] work at the time that it was supposed to +[5515.18 --> 5517.28] work that's why you go with an HTPC it's +[5517.28 --> 5521.54] pretty normal but uh yeah this was one of +[5521.54 --> 5523.54] those stories where I was like okay I mean +[5523.54 --> 5525.26] I think the people right now who have the +[5525.26 --> 5527.92] capability to watch Netflix and 4k aren't +[5527.92 --> 5530.32] really probably going to be too pissed off by +[5530.32 --> 5533.86] three extra dollars a month I would hope +[5533.86 --> 5535.12] that once it becomes a little bit more +[5535.12 --> 5536.44] mainstream maybe they'll do like a +[5536.44 --> 5538.22] discount plan or something knock it down +[5538.22 --> 5542.28] to 10 I'll sign up for 10 all right so +[5542.28 --> 5544.82] next up we've got the snapening snap +[5544.82 --> 5547.90] saved images leaked so 500 megs of images +[5547.90 --> 5549.74] were leaked according to snap saved +[5549.74 --> 5551.70] snap saved.com is a website that allows +[5551.70 --> 5554.50] users to save snapchat messages and it was +[5554.50 --> 5556.32] compromised their database was immediately +[5556.32 --> 5558.36] deleted when the hack was discovered but +[5558.36 --> 5560.22] there are concerns that many of the leaked +[5560.22 --> 5562.68] images could be classified as child porn +[5562.68 --> 5566.22] so yeah +[5566.22 --> 5572.44] that's a that's a messy situation I guess +[5572.44 --> 5573.66] that's all there is to really say about +[5573.66 --> 5575.80] that although one pirate bay user +[5575.80 --> 5577.54] complained that so far from what I've +[5577.54 --> 5579.58] seen the vast majority are just black +[5579.58 --> 5581.12] screens with text overlaid or just a +[5581.12 --> 5583.86] normal selfie that would be my initial +[5583.86 --> 5585.50] response like man the pictures aren't even +[5585.50 --> 5589.26] that good Nexus player is coming so this +[5589.26 --> 5590.96] was posted by laws on the forum the +[5590.96 --> 5592.82] original source is Google's own page +[5592.82 --> 5594.38] about it so let's go check that thing +[5594.38 --> 5594.92] out +[5594.92 --> 5598.46] whoo Nexus player so you know who yeah +[5598.46 --> 5601.28] good idea but probably ahead of your +[5601.28 --> 5603.62] time a little bit there and the page is +[5603.62 --> 5605.66] loading a bit slowly so sorry about that +[5605.66 --> 5608.72] but at any rate the Nexus player is +[5608.72 --> 5610.04] coming it's going to come with a remote +[5610.04 --> 5612.14] and a controller the remote has voice +[5612.14 --> 5614.06] search comes with apps such as Netflix +[5614.06 --> 5617.30] and Ted there's a full list on the on the +[5617.30 --> 5618.68] Google page for it that I would love to +[5618.68 --> 5619.82] show you except that it's not loading +[5619.82 --> 5621.74] right now and it has free online +[5621.74 --> 5625.34] multiplayer from Google Play games so the +[5625.34 --> 5628.10] thing that all consoles should always +[5628.10 --> 5631.40] have forever because it's just baffling to +[5631.40 --> 5633.02] me that you have to pay to subscribe to +[5633.02 --> 5634.52] multiplayer service when you already bought +[5634.52 --> 5636.68] the game and you already have your +[5636.68 --> 5639.46] internet connection it's got a 1.8 gigahertz +[5639.46 --> 5642.34] quad-core Intel Atom processor 802.11ac +[5642.34 --> 5644.92] 2x2 Mimo so that's a pretty good +[5644.92 --> 5647.20] wireless solution HDMI out and it'll +[5647.20 --> 5649.06] cost $100 and the controller will cost +[5649.06 --> 5652.84] 40 bucks and one thing though that's +[5652.84 --> 5654.04] missing and it better have a good +[5654.04 --> 5655.60] wireless solution because it does not +[5655.60 --> 5657.88] have a wired network connection that's a +[5657.88 --> 5661.66] bit of a killer for me oh damn yeah I +[5661.66 --> 5663.88] personally have to pee I'll be right back +[5663.88 --> 5666.46] thank you thank you thank you Kyle you +[5666.46 --> 5668.22] should end the show while he's gone so +[5668.22 --> 5669.62] that I don't have to talk about where +[5669.62 --> 5671.42] people can go watch Kyle make videos +[5671.42 --> 5673.46] that's all right yeah we'll leave his +[5673.46 --> 5675.46] plugs out of it so so this is like I +[5676.10 --> 5677.56] don't know this is like the upgrade to +[5677.56 --> 5679.60] the Chromecast I guess it's it's Android +[5679.60 --> 5681.82] based it's it's got a better processor and +[5681.82 --> 5683.74] you can actually play games on it and it's +[5683.74 --> 5685.78] only a hundred bucks yeah it looks that +[5685.78 --> 5688.86] way how many Android so you do you you've +[5688.86 --> 5690.88] been using your shield and everything to +[5690.88 --> 5694.22] play games like you know like do you +[5694.22 --> 5697.38] actually play any Android platform games +[5697.38 --> 5700.88] or they're all rubbish yeah so I guess +[5700.88 --> 5703.20] that would be my issue would be sure you +[5703.20 --> 5705.74] can play Android games but I don't play +[5705.74 --> 5709.04] any Android games so the draw really isn't +[5709.04 --> 5711.06] there for me but I mean I don't know +[5711.06 --> 5713.68] for $100 this is a tough sell for me I'd +[5713.68 --> 5715.28] rather spend I think shield shield +[5715.28 --> 5717.22] portables down to what 200 bucks now yeah +[5717.86 --> 5719.46] yeah I'd rather have one of those and run +[5719.46 --> 5721.78] it in console mode for sure you'd have a +[5721.78 --> 5723.70] lot more flexibility with what you could +[5723.70 --> 5725.44] play on it that's that's for damn sure +[5725.44 --> 5728.14] yep so original article here is from New +[5728.14 --> 5733.60] York Times and that is that HBO is to +[5733.60 --> 5735.94] start their own standalone streaming +[5735.94 --> 5741.40] service come 2015 which is I guess pretty +[5741.40 --> 5744.22] cool actually very cool because now you +[5744.22 --> 5745.78] won't have to have a cable subscription +[5745.78 --> 5749.86] in order to get access to HBO programming +[5749.86 --> 5754.30] so this intensifies their growing rivalry +[5754.30 --> 5760.00] with Netflix HBO is trying to cater to the new generation that doesn't have any interest in cable +[5760.00 --> 5779.84] subscriptions I have only had one when my cable provider offered it to me for free I watched hockey games that was it 10 million homes in the US have no cable or satellite subscription but do have internet half of those are subscribed to a streaming surface surface surface service so CEO of HBO says it's time to remove all barriers to +[5779.86 --> 5809.86] those who don't have HBO all in there are 80 million homes in the US that do not have HBO and we will use all means at our disposal to go after them so there you go so there's there's that popular web comic I think it was from the oatmeal where somebody was like I'm going to watch games game of thrones but I want to do it legit stop cracking you sorry I want to do it legitimately and then there's the whole comic was about them trying to legitimately watch game of thrones and then eventually giving up and and pirating it and then it's not going to do it legitimately +[5809.86 --> 5811.84] This is my only issue here. +[5811.94 --> 5814.30] This is going to make that argument a lot more difficult. +[5814.50 --> 5817.30] Anyone who pirates Game of Thrones regularly now, +[5817.54 --> 5820.02] they have much less of an excuse. +[5821.82 --> 5825.76] This, to me, signals the beginning of the end of cable TV. +[5826.50 --> 5827.02] And world. +[5827.62 --> 5830.24] Yeah, I don't understand why it still needs to exist. +[5830.56 --> 5832.44] Kyle used a little bit more hyperbole there. +[5832.70 --> 5834.16] Just a bit of embellishment. +[5834.76 --> 5836.80] All right, we've got a few more rapid-fire topics, +[5836.94 --> 5839.08] but I've got to go through these incredibly quickly +[5839.08 --> 5840.78] because we've completely run out of time. +[5841.14 --> 5844.12] Amazon to open a physical store in New York. +[5844.16 --> 5846.80] It could act as a way to highlight products like Fire TV. +[5848.90 --> 5849.82] This is a breakthrough. +[5850.00 --> 5852.48] It's a revolutionary thing that Amazon has done here. +[5852.92 --> 5853.78] Yeah, opening a store. +[5854.42 --> 5855.76] Maybe Newegg will follow suit. +[5856.18 --> 5857.88] And then maybe NCIX will open a retail... +[5857.88 --> 5859.10] Oh, wait, no, they've already got them. +[5859.30 --> 5859.78] They have them. +[5859.96 --> 5861.28] They're called the Hybrid Center. +[5861.28 --> 5863.12] They're like the hipsters of the tech industry. +[5863.58 --> 5865.98] All right, Corsair RGB keyboards, +[5865.98 --> 5869.14] allegedly only producing 512 colors. +[5869.56 --> 5872.98] It is advertised as supporting 8-bit color, +[5873.14 --> 5875.94] giving 16.8 million total color combinations. +[5876.14 --> 5879.18] However, it's been found to support only 3-bit color, +[5879.54 --> 5881.24] giving 512 combinations. +[5881.24 --> 5885.30] To people who are sort of blown away by this, +[5885.38 --> 5891.58] all I really have to say is Corsair is doing what they had to do here, I think. +[5891.66 --> 5892.60] I don't think it's right. +[5892.68 --> 5898.28] I don't think it's right for anyone to advertise 16.8 million RGB lighting in a product +[5898.28 --> 5902.94] when it's obviously not actually 16.8 million color combinations. +[5902.94 --> 5905.34] But like, let's take... +[5905.34 --> 5907.74] Ugh, the cable's trapped under something here. +[5907.98 --> 5910.18] Let's take this mouse, for example. +[5910.40 --> 5911.56] This is a Logitech mouse. +[5911.74 --> 5914.58] Logitech is a big company, a good company, good people. +[5916.06 --> 5918.70] That LED lighting is advertised as 16.8 million. +[5919.18 --> 5920.22] There's no way. +[5920.58 --> 5923.38] There's no way in hell that it produces 16.8 million colors. +[5923.46 --> 5925.02] If you guys have ever had an RGB product, +[5925.42 --> 5926.68] drag the color wheel around. +[5927.52 --> 5929.06] You know, take two yellows that are similar +[5929.06 --> 5931.46] and see if you can actually see the difference in the LED. +[5931.46 --> 5935.32] There is no difference because it doesn't actually do it. +[5935.74 --> 5937.06] It's never actually done it. +[5937.24 --> 5941.28] And if anything, Corsair's transitions much more smoothly, +[5941.60 --> 5945.26] in my experience, than the Black Widow Ultimate Chroma anyway, +[5945.52 --> 5948.44] and a lot more smoothly than a lot of other RGB products I've seen. +[5948.56 --> 5953.58] So I really wonder how many colors most RGB products out there actually support. +[5954.00 --> 5955.58] Like I said, still wrong. +[5955.80 --> 5956.82] Shame on you, Corsair. +[5957.24 --> 5960.26] But there you go. +[5960.26 --> 5961.82] According to the forum users, +[5961.94 --> 5965.36] the issue is either that they are constrained to the USB protocol +[5965.36 --> 5966.84] that only supports three bits per channel, +[5967.04 --> 5971.48] or because the three Panasonic A32-181 LED matrix ICs +[5971.48 --> 5972.58] they use to control the keyboard +[5972.58 --> 5976.04] are only able to give individual LEDs three bits of control per channel. +[5976.26 --> 5977.12] So there you go. +[5977.62 --> 5979.96] I don't think there's been an official statement from Corsair, +[5979.96 --> 5982.76] but yeah. +[5983.34 --> 5985.62] FutureMark launches the world's first 4K benchmark. +[5985.82 --> 5987.50] This was posted by TechFanboy on the forum, +[5987.64 --> 5989.36] and it's the sources from KitGuru.net. +[5989.84 --> 5992.56] Firestrike Ultra renders the Firestrike benchmark in 4K. +[5992.64 --> 5994.72] You need at least three gigs of VRAM to run the benchmark, +[5994.98 --> 5996.30] and the leaderboards are live. +[5996.72 --> 5999.56] There's a JBL special edition of the OnePlus One and earphones, +[5999.68 --> 6001.30] but I don't really like talking about OnePlus One, +[6001.30 --> 6004.56] because I think that they're 1 plus 1. +[6006.76 --> 6007.90] It is what it is. +[6008.12 --> 6008.90] 1 plus 2. +[6009.88 --> 6011.10] That equals 2. +[6011.88 --> 6012.94] The answer to the equation. +[6014.32 --> 6017.28] Apple patents flexible device display input method, +[6017.62 --> 6020.68] so the device would react to bending using that as an input method. +[6020.84 --> 6021.24] Very cool. +[6021.24 --> 6026.82] Asus Strix mechanical keyboards with blue, black, brown, and red key switches +[6026.82 --> 6029.80] are either available now or coming soon. +[6029.88 --> 6031.46] I actually haven't seen if they're on sale yet. +[6031.54 --> 6033.08] This was posted by Quertius. +[6033.76 --> 6036.42] Oh, yeah, and the Apple patent thing was from TechDreamer. +[6036.82 --> 6038.70] This was posted by Quertius on the forum, +[6038.94 --> 6041.32] and this is the Strix Tactic Pro. +[6043.40 --> 6044.02] There we go. +[6045.24 --> 6045.68] Really? +[6045.68 --> 6048.76] How is Asus and Corsair going to be buddy-buddy +[6048.76 --> 6051.02] now that Asus has mice and keyboards? +[6051.24 --> 6052.20] And headsets. +[6052.44 --> 6053.16] And headsets. +[6054.04 --> 6056.66] And I think they had cases at one point, didn't they? +[6057.76 --> 6060.40] They have like, I know they have like server cases. +[6060.54 --> 6064.06] They sell like, you know, kind of bare-bones server systems and stuff. +[6064.34 --> 6067.88] I'm not sure if they have like mainstream consumer gamer cases +[6067.88 --> 6068.66] or anything like that. +[6068.86 --> 6070.18] I can't zoom in on this. +[6070.40 --> 6071.42] I wouldn't be surprised if they did. +[6072.10 --> 6074.58] Well, at any rate, it's a gaming keyboard. +[6074.58 --> 6075.22] It's mechanical. +[6075.54 --> 6077.04] It's got some macro keys on the left. +[6077.20 --> 6078.22] Pricing looks reasonable. +[6078.34 --> 6079.48] It's got N-key rollover. +[6079.48 --> 6083.28] And it's got three more macro keys under the space bar, +[6083.36 --> 6086.10] a position that I personally really, really like for them. +[6086.24 --> 6087.60] Because whenever you're not jumping, +[6087.74 --> 6089.72] you might as well be macro-ing something. +[6090.04 --> 6091.60] And maybe more than one thing. +[6092.16 --> 6093.88] And I think that's pretty much it for my topic. +[6093.88 --> 6098.24] So I guess the rest here is, you know what? +[6098.30 --> 6100.74] Actually, maybe, do you mind, do you guys mind if we end the show +[6100.74 --> 6103.40] and then we come back immediately for a quick after party? +[6103.50 --> 6105.50] Maybe you guys can update me on how things are going +[6105.50 --> 6107.72] now that you're free from the shackles that bound you? +[6107.96 --> 6108.30] Of course. +[6108.38 --> 6108.70] Yeah, why not? +[6108.96 --> 6109.62] Let's do that. +[6109.70 --> 6112.88] So the after party will be back in like a couple seconds here. +[6112.88 --> 6142.86] Thank you. +[6142.88 --> 6144.22] for making our show possible. +[6145.14 --> 6146.00] Real fist.

so technical difficulties abound. +[10.00 --> 15.00] We've got a great show for you guys today though there is a ton of fantastic news. +[15.00 --> 26.00] I'm also going to have some early thoughts on the Droid Turbo, which is the phone that I have just started using as of last night and I'm pretty darn impressed with so far. +[26.00 --> 35.00] And of course he's going to talk about Oculus because the Oculus excitement fairies visited in the night and told us that the retail version is coming soon. +[35.00 --> 38.00] So let's go through what our main topics for today are. +[38.00 --> 44.00] There's of course a ton of news from Blizzcon and not just like Hearthstone, now with tablets. +[44.00 --> 48.00] I mean they have that too, but there's other stuff. +[48.00 --> 62.00] Now you can use your Gmail app with any email service including ones like Hotmail who completely lacked apps for years and years and years and years and just generally kind of suck as a mobile experience. +[62.00 --> 65.00] Now you can just use the Gmail interface. +[65.00 --> 66.00] Woo! +[66.00 --> 71.00] Yeah, Google can have your data without even storing anything on their servers now. +[71.00 --> 74.00] Like you just skim it and let someone else deal with that problem. +[74.00 --> 75.00] That's right. +[75.00 --> 76.00] Zalman is bankrupt. +[76.00 --> 77.00] Or not. +[77.00 --> 78.00] Maybe. +[78.00 --> 79.00] Yeah, something's going on. +[79.00 --> 85.00] Anyways, and just as like the trustiest steam machine you could ever possibly imagine, get the pun? +[85.00 --> 94.00] Anyways, Ubisoft keeps on digging and was able to push through the news of their horribleness through all the mess of Blizzcon news. +[94.00 --> 95.00] Which is a lot. +[95.00 --> 96.00] Impressive. +[96.00 --> 97.00] And important stuff. +[97.00 --> 99.00] I'm not even mad, that's just amazing. +[99.00 --> 103.00] It's just like a wow, good work. +[103.00 --> 106.00] You are at an impressive level of stuff. +[106.00 --> 109.00] That is really good, good work. +[109.00 --> 110.00] Alright, so let's roll the intro here. +[110.00 --> 113.00] Let's see if it's set up correctly because I didn't do it. +[113.00 --> 115.00] There's sound. +[115.00 --> 117.00] Alright, okay. +[117.00 --> 122.00] Now, um, shoot I forget which one of it was. +[122.00 --> 125.00] One of our sponsors asked very nicely to go first. +[125.00 --> 128.00] So it's going to be a 50-50 coin toss at this point because I don't know who it was. +[128.00 --> 130.00] I don't know which one. +[130.00 --> 134.00] Alright, so our sponsors today are lynda.com. +[134.00 --> 142.00] Visit lynda.com slash wanshow so that we get credit for referring you to lynda.com, which I guess benefits us somehow. +[142.00 --> 143.00] Woo! +[143.00 --> 144.00] Woo! +[144.00 --> 149.00] And also dollarshaveclub.com, shave time and shave money. +[149.00 --> 154.00] You know, we should just do both of the sponsors at the same time from now on. +[154.00 --> 159.00] So it should just be like, lynda.com. +[159.00 --> 162.00] Yeah, shave your knowledge and expand your beard. +[162.00 --> 163.00] Yeah. +[163.00 --> 164.00] Wait, what? +[164.00 --> 166.00] No, opposite of that. +[166.00 --> 167.00] I can't take credit. +[167.00 --> 168.00] That was Nick's idea. +[168.00 --> 169.00] Oh. +[169.00 --> 170.00] Wrong way around. +[170.00 --> 172.00] Apparently I got them wrong, but that's okay because I'm not going to concern myself. +[172.00 --> 174.00] Expand your knowledge and shave your beard. +[174.00 --> 176.00] No, expand your beard, shave your knowledge. +[176.00 --> 177.00] We'll do both the same thing. +[177.00 --> 179.00] Is that a Movember thing? +[179.00 --> 180.00] Yeah. +[180.00 --> 181.00] Expand your beard, shave your knowledge. +[181.00 --> 183.00] Yeah, Movember and like knowledge. +[183.00 --> 184.00] Expand your beard, shave your wallet. +[184.00 --> 185.00] That's November. +[185.00 --> 189.00] Because you have to donate to the Movember cause and you have to expand your beard. +[189.00 --> 194.00] And you have more to donate to the Movember cause because Dollar Shave Club saves you money on razors. +[194.00 --> 195.00] There you go. +[197.00 --> 204.00] Alright, so let's get into our first topic today, which is going to be that Blizzard should just stop making games. +[204.00 --> 217.00] Because their cinematic trailers for things, the Warlords of Draenor one, the one for Overwatch that just came out today, that I was like spellbound by. +[217.00 --> 219.00] Okay, so I love animated movies. +[219.00 --> 220.00] Me too. +[220.00 --> 221.00] I love The Incredibles. +[221.00 --> 223.00] That's one of my favorite movies of all time. +[223.00 --> 225.00] I loved Megamind. +[225.00 --> 229.00] Like that, action animated movies turns me on. +[229.00 --> 230.00] Seriously. +[230.00 --> 239.00] So, that trailer today, oh man, I'm glad I was alone in the room because I would have knocked something over with the... +[240.00 --> 243.00] Yeah, so, freaking awesome. +[243.00 --> 244.00] It's really good. +[244.00 --> 259.00] And, and, they didn't pull that whole BS Square Enix thing where there's like a 16 minute long cinematic trailer of like some really impressively spiky haired dude with like an impressively huge sword that's also a gun and a laser beam or something. +[259.00 --> 262.00] Like twirling around with it or whatever. +[262.00 --> 263.00] We didn't get any of that. +[263.00 --> 267.00] Or like, you know, dramatic silence broody thing. +[267.00 --> 268.00] And then, no gameplay? +[268.00 --> 271.00] Because they know we're not gonna like it. +[271.00 --> 273.00] Uh, no, instead we actually got a gameplay trailer. +[273.00 --> 275.00] Do you want to talk about the gameplay trailer for Overwatch? +[275.00 --> 282.00] Yeah, so the one thing I really liked about the gameplay trailer for Overwatch, just to completely reiterate what you just said, was that they showed every single character. +[282.00 --> 284.00] This is why I love having you as a sidekick. +[284.00 --> 287.00] To say exactly what you just said. +[287.00 --> 290.00] Um, they showed every single character, which I really appreciated. +[290.00 --> 294.00] And they showed, um, what I think was the complete move set. +[294.00 --> 295.00] As far as I could tell. +[295.00 --> 296.00] Oh! +[296.00 --> 301.00] I had to watch it like twice and I was referencing a sheet that shows like their, their two main moves and their ultimate. +[301.00 --> 302.00] Yeah. +[302.00 --> 306.00] But if you looked really closely, it looks like they actually show all of their moves, including their ultimate. +[306.00 --> 313.00] Now, the, the assassin dude with the dual pistols, pretty much every single time they showed him on screen they showed his ultimate, which was kind of funny. +[313.00 --> 319.00] But, I was trying to figure out the first time I watched it, I was like, why does he just get to instant kill everyone around him all the time? +[319.00 --> 320.00] Right. +[320.00 --> 322.00] I was like, this doesn't seem fair at all. +[322.00 --> 325.00] I figured out later on, it's his ultimate thing. +[325.00 --> 327.00] They should just call that class, the douchebag. +[327.00 --> 328.00] Yeah. +[328.00 --> 331.00] Well, he's a stealth character, so it's kind of fun. +[331.00 --> 333.00] I know how games work. +[333.00 --> 335.00] No, I mean the douchebag comment. +[335.00 --> 336.00] Oh. +[336.00 --> 337.00] He's a stealth character, so it kind of works. +[337.00 --> 338.00] Well, yes, I guess so. +[338.00 --> 340.00] At least how I see them when I play games. +[340.00 --> 342.00] Anyways, um, it looks really good. +[342.00 --> 343.00] It looks really good. +[343.00 --> 347.00] What a lot of people are pointing out is that while it's like, the first new IP in forever, +[347.00 --> 350.00] that's largely because it's, like, it's Titan. +[350.00 --> 355.00] They just removed everything except for the PvP portion and then they were like, yay, whole game. +[355.00 --> 359.00] Um, that's, well, that's a, like, large amount of speculation. +[359.00 --> 360.00] I don't know if that's actually true. +[360.00 --> 361.00] Right. +[361.00 --> 362.00] That's what a lot of people are saying. +[362.00 --> 363.00] And it makes sense. +[363.00 --> 366.00] Um, and I don't know if I'm against it. +[366.00 --> 370.00] Cause this looks really cool as its own game and I'm hoping that by being its own game they +[370.00 --> 374.00] can expand on it a little bit more instead of having it a canned experience within a larger +[374.00 --> 375.00] thing. +[375.00 --> 380.00] And, um, even talking to people that are really into WoW since they kind of abandoned the +[380.00 --> 385.00] whole Titan idea and brought some of those MMO guys back to the WoW experience. +[385.00 --> 386.00] WoW has gotten a lot better because of that. +[386.00 --> 388.00] So it kind of makes sense. +[388.00 --> 389.00] Right. +[389.00 --> 390.00] I'm really stoked for Overwatch actually. +[390.00 --> 391.00] I signed up for the beta already. +[391.00 --> 392.00] It looks fun. +[392.00 --> 395.00] And I like games that are just kind of, just fun. +[395.00 --> 396.00] Yeah. +[396.00 --> 397.00] It does. +[397.00 --> 398.00] Instead of being super hardcore. +[398.00 --> 401.00] It just looks like, well, they're gonna have to still work hard to balance it. +[401.00 --> 402.00] I'm sure they will. +[402.00 --> 407.00] If you're gonna compete with something like Team Fortress that's fun and really well balanced +[407.00 --> 411.00] for hardcores as long as you don't go over the top with some of the stupid stuff +[411.00 --> 412.00] that goes on. +[412.00 --> 413.00] Yeah. +[413.00 --> 417.00] Um, if they can achieve both of those things, and Blizzard is one of the companies where I kind +[417.00 --> 423.00] of look at it and I go, well, who actually has the pedigree to go head to head with Valve +[423.00 --> 426.00] as one of the only two competitors in an entire genre? +[426.00 --> 429.00] Yeah, I could see them doing it. +[429.00 --> 432.00] Balance has never, in my opinion- +[432.00 --> 433.00] They're really good at it! +[433.00 --> 435.00] They're really good at it in some realms. +[435.00 --> 436.00] Some ways. +[436.00 --> 441.00] Um, I don't personally think they've done very well with World of Warcraft arenas, which +[441.00 --> 445.00] is part of the reason why they were actually pushed out of, I can't remember what very large +[445.00 --> 447.00] gaming tournament. +[447.00 --> 448.00] I can't believe the... +[448.00 --> 449.00] MLG? +[449.00 --> 450.00] Was it? +[450.00 --> 453.00] They were pushed out of some huge gaming tournament because they were just like, your thing is +[453.00 --> 455.00] horribly unbalanced and this is just ridiculous. +[455.00 --> 457.00] Um, so, yeah. +[457.00 --> 461.00] But that is a really, that's part of the reason why I said I'm totally okay with it being its +[461.00 --> 462.00] own canned experience. +[462.00 --> 463.00] Right. +[463.00 --> 465.00] Because I don't want the other stuff to mess with it. +[465.00 --> 468.00] And if it doesn't mess with it, then they might be able to work on things like Balance +[468.00 --> 469.00] much more effectively. +[469.00 --> 470.00] Looks like a lot of fun though. +[470.00 --> 475.00] So you can sign up for the beta, which is coming in 2015 at PlayOverwatch.com. +[475.00 --> 478.00] I'm glad that they're taking their time to polish it. +[478.00 --> 479.00] Yep. +[479.00 --> 484.00] They're not even doing, I mean, it looks pretty playable right now, but that means that they're- +[484.00 --> 486.00] You never, yeah, you never really know some gameplay trailers. +[486.00 --> 490.00] So they're probably not working on artwork assets so much anymore. +[490.00 --> 495.00] They're probably fine tuning the actual gameplay and maps and the actual experience of playing +[495.00 --> 496.00] the game. +[496.00 --> 497.00] So, so I'm really excited to see it. +[497.00 --> 498.00] I'm, I want to play with it. +[498.00 --> 500.00] I, I like that it's 6v6. +[500.00 --> 501.00] Yeah, I think that's pretty cool. +[501.00 --> 505.00] It's, it's just pushing it that much more. +[505.00 --> 511.00] And if they try to make it competitive 6v6, then I mean, there's a lot more room for dynamic +[511.00 --> 514.00] gameplay, especially as you throw in all of these different classes. +[514.00 --> 515.00] Yeah, there's a ton. +[515.00 --> 518.00] I don't know the exact number, but there's a really large amount. +[518.00 --> 519.00] Yeah, so it's like- +[519.00 --> 522.00] And they're, they're pushing the whole, it's a character instead of it being a class, +[522.00 --> 523.00] but it's, it's a class. +[523.00 --> 524.00] Oh, whatever. +[524.00 --> 525.00] Yeah, it's a class. +[525.00 --> 529.00] There's the sniper and there's the engineer and there's the tank guy and it, yeah. +[529.00 --> 531.00] But the engineer has a beard now! +[531.00 --> 532.00] Not surprising! +[532.00 --> 533.00] Yeah. +[533.00 --> 535.00] Anyways, moving on. +[535.00 --> 536.00] Okay. +[536.00 --> 538.00] Should we just do all the Blizzard news right now? +[538.00 --> 539.00] Yeah, sure, sure. +[539.00 --> 542.00] So, so yeah, I, just one last thing. +[542.00 --> 544.00] We finally got an FPS from Blizzard. +[544.00 --> 546.00] We've been waiting for it since Ghost! +[546.00 --> 547.00] Yay! +[547.00 --> 549.00] I still wish we got Ghost! +[549.00 --> 551.00] And back to the StarCraft universe! +[551.00 --> 552.00] Now you can do your thing. +[552.00 --> 558.00] Okay, so, so Legacy of the Void will be a standalone game, which is interesting and I personally think actually a really good idea. +[558.00 --> 561.00] Uh, because it'll make the barrier of entry into StarCraft a lot easier. +[561.00 --> 567.00] Um, because buying a new game and then having to buy the two new expansions. +[567.00 --> 568.00] All these expansions for it. +[568.00 --> 573.00] Like the 90, the 90 or $100 battle chest that inevitably comes out. +[573.00 --> 574.00] Yeah. +[574.00 --> 575.00] That's just really frustrating. +[575.00 --> 578.00] So I'm really cool with the fact that they made it a standalone game. +[578.00 --> 580.00] They're doing a few cool things as well. +[580.00 --> 587.00] Uh, I'm not really gonna focus tons on like the, you get to pilot this ancient ship and the single player and all that crap. +[587.00 --> 590.00] And there was like a lot of lore around it and it's like really cool. +[590.00 --> 594.00] Certain things happened if you like single player StarCraft campaigns, go play it. +[594.00 --> 596.00] I do, but I don't think a ton of people care. +[596.00 --> 597.00] So, oh well. +[597.00 --> 599.00] Um, they're introducing a few new modes. +[599.00 --> 601.00] Uh, one that looks really interesting is Archon mode. +[601.00 --> 607.00] A new co-op and PvP mode where you work with your teammate to control a single base and a single army. +[607.00 --> 611.00] So you're, you're, it's two people controlling one team essentially. +[611.00 --> 612.00] That sounds like a lot of fun. +[612.00 --> 614.00] I actually think so as well. +[614.00 --> 615.00] Again, I'm really stoked. +[615.00 --> 624.00] For people who are new to the game, that kind of thing could be a legitimately entertaining way to play in a game with your buddy who's like way better. +[624.00 --> 627.00] I've forced it before because I love this idea. +[627.00 --> 632.00] I've gone into a 2v2 and essentially like we've, we've rushed and essentially sacrificed one of our guys. +[632.00 --> 633.00] Right. +[633.00 --> 635.00] And then just given control to the other guy. +[635.00 --> 636.00] Right. +[636.00 --> 638.00] And then one person manages the base and the other person manages the army. +[638.00 --> 645.00] And by being able to quite literally be in two places at once, it can make two players that would be fairly mediocre into, +[645.00 --> 646.00] like, actually a really good player. +[646.00 --> 647.00] A super player. +[647.00 --> 648.00] Right. +[648.00 --> 649.00] Yeah. +[649.00 --> 650.00] And it's, it's interesting to see how that plays out. +[650.00 --> 652.00] So it's really cool that it's actually a game mode now. +[652.00 --> 653.00] Yeah. +[653.00 --> 654.00] I'm going to have a lot of fun with that actually. +[654.00 --> 655.00] Yeah. +[655.00 --> 656.00] I will, I will play that game mode. +[656.00 --> 660.00] It's probably the only thing I'll care about because I like RTS games. +[660.00 --> 665.00] I enjoy them, but I tend to be a little bit of a scatterbrain and a little bit kind of ADD. +[665.00 --> 674.00] So I will completely forget about that, you know, 16 units that I queued up and I'll be in a skirmish or whatever and I left 16 guys standing next to my barracks. +[674.00 --> 680.00] And if you could have just, just have someone just like pushing units at you while you fight and you just get completely fight, that'd be fun. +[680.00 --> 682.00] And I'm a base micromanager. +[682.00 --> 683.00] I like building bases. +[683.00 --> 684.00] Right. +[684.00 --> 688.00] And I usually just like attacking when I have like a huge army, which isn't necessarily always the best way to go. +[688.00 --> 690.00] That's not really necessarily a good strategy. +[690.00 --> 691.00] No, yeah. +[691.00 --> 704.00] And then they have another mode called Allied Commanders, which is another co-op style mode where players join forces through different scenarios and they gain new capabilities as they progress and go forward. +[704.00 --> 709.00] And I don't know a ton about that one, but again, it's this like bringing people together. +[709.00 --> 710.00] I like RTSs a lot. +[710.00 --> 712.00] I like watching 1v1 StarCraft. +[712.00 --> 714.00] I'm not a huge fan of playing 1v1 StarCraft. +[714.00 --> 716.00] I like playing RTSs on teams. +[716.00 --> 721.00] My favorite modes are 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4 because I get to play with someone. +[721.00 --> 724.00] So I like that they're bringing out these additional modes. +[724.00 --> 739.00] Also, there's going to be a like online dynamic tournament system, which should be really cool, which I'm pretty stoked about because people like my brother, ColdSC, a StarCraft caster, have been pretty frustrated with the like tournament support and team support in StarCraft. +[739.00 --> 742.00] So it's cool that they might actually be doing something about it. +[742.00 --> 745.00] Also, they're bringing in new units, which is not surprising. +[745.00 --> 748.00] And they're bringing back the Lurker, which some people have been waiting for. +[748.00 --> 757.00] Alright, so then we did promise that one of the things at BlizzCon was going to be Hearthstone with tablets, just like last year. +[757.00 --> 760.00] Well, now it's Hearthstone on different tablets. +[760.00 --> 762.00] Android tablets. +[764.00 --> 765.00] Asshole, there's another one. +[765.00 --> 771.00] Why wasn't this a thing nine months ago, shortly after the iOS release? I don't know. +[771.00 --> 777.00] Should have been a lot faster. I'm pretty stoked that it's finally happening, but it's more of a like, yeah, okay. +[777.00 --> 780.00] Thank you. Instead of like a yay! +[780.00 --> 784.00] But they're also releasing a new expansion, Goblins vs. Gnomes. +[784.00 --> 787.00] So that'll be cool. The previous expansion that they released was actually really fun. +[787.00 --> 792.00] So it's cool to see them expanding the game. There's also going to be 120 new themed cards, which is pretty insane. +[792.00 --> 794.00] Hey, and you don't have to borrow my iPad anymore. +[794.00 --> 795.00] Yeah. +[795.00 --> 796.00] Hey, that worked out for everyone. +[796.00 --> 800.00] Alright, so let's go ahead and move on to our next topic. +[800.00 --> 803.00] Intel was caught cheating. +[803.00 --> 805.00] Now is this the second time? +[805.00 --> 808.00] Oh, this is... I think it's more than that. +[808.00 --> 809.00] Or like the whatever time? Yeah, yeah. +[809.00 --> 811.00] Because when I first saw the story, I was like, wait. +[811.00 --> 812.00] Okay, there was... +[812.00 --> 813.00] Is this an old article? +[813.00 --> 829.00] There was like the big one where there was like allegedly Intel was, you know, paying for people to not or deeply incentivizing their partners to not carry AMD products. +[829.00 --> 833.00] And that was, I think that was like HP and Dell or something like that. +[833.00 --> 835.00] And this was back around the same timeframe. +[835.00 --> 837.00] I think a little bit earlier actually. +[837.00 --> 838.00] Okay. +[838.00 --> 840.00] Whereas this is during the Pentium 4 days. +[840.00 --> 849.00] Specifically, if you bought a Pentium 4 based computer sometime between November 20th in the year 2000 and December 31st, 2001. +[849.00 --> 851.00] So just over a year of time. +[851.00 --> 852.00] You bought a P4. +[852.00 --> 856.00] You get a $15 cash payout for Intel... +[856.00 --> 857.00] Not allegedly. +[857.00 --> 858.00] It's confirmed now. +[858.00 --> 859.00] They were caught. +[859.00 --> 866.00] So for Intel misrepresenting the performance of the Pentium 4 relative to the AMD Athlon Thunderbird. +[866.00 --> 871.00] So if you want your $15 bucks, there's no receipt necessary. +[871.00 --> 877.00] And Intel will also be paying $4 million to educational charities, which is pretty cool. +[877.00 --> 878.00] They have to pay. +[878.00 --> 879.00] They're not also paying. +[879.00 --> 880.00] They're not like, yeah. +[880.00 --> 883.00] Thank you for the unfavorable court ruling. +[883.00 --> 884.00] Just to... +[884.00 --> 886.00] Here's $4 million bucks. +[886.00 --> 887.00] No, it's something. +[887.00 --> 888.00] They have to do that. +[888.00 --> 895.00] Yeah, so it's one of those things where I think a lot of people will kind of look at this and go, you know, big bad Intel, you're bad dudes. +[895.00 --> 896.00] And you know what? +[896.00 --> 897.00] That was not a cool thing to do. +[897.00 --> 905.00] I think that based on our engagement with Intel over the last couple of years, they treat this kind of stuff really seriously internally now. +[905.00 --> 909.00] Especially after that, the big lawsuit, the one where they had to pay AMD. +[909.00 --> 911.00] Like, I can't remember how much it was. +[911.00 --> 915.00] I want to say it was in the neighborhood of hundreds of millions or a billion or something like that. +[915.00 --> 916.00] Yeah, it was a big deal. +[916.00 --> 918.00] So, ever since... +[918.00 --> 919.00] Yeah, I vaguely remember that. +[919.00 --> 928.00] Ever since that whole thing came to light, like, they are so careful when they talk to us about, look, say whatever you want. +[928.00 --> 929.00] Do this. +[929.00 --> 930.00] Do that. +[930.00 --> 933.00] Criticize us publicly if that's what it comes to. +[933.00 --> 934.00] Just be fair. +[934.00 --> 936.00] And, like, we'll sponsor you. +[936.00 --> 937.00] We'll have that relationship with you. +[937.00 --> 939.00] But we can't affect anything you do or say. +[939.00 --> 940.00] I'm like, okay. +[940.00 --> 941.00] But that's good. +[941.00 --> 942.00] That's how it's supposed to work. +[942.00 --> 943.00] So... +[943.00 --> 944.00] Yeah, they've been, yeah. +[944.00 --> 947.00] They're always pretty, pretty careful now. +[947.00 --> 948.00] No. +[948.00 --> 949.00] No. +[949.00 --> 950.00] No. +[950.00 --> 953.00] I think the computer from, like, high school wasn't fast enough, so I want my $15 now. +[953.00 --> 954.00] I want my lunch money. +[954.00 --> 962.00] You know, the only winners from something like this, because the amount of effort that it takes to make the $15, you could probably go fill out online surveys and make $15. +[962.00 --> 964.00] The only winners are people that are like... +[964.00 --> 965.00] Lawyers. +[965.00 --> 966.00] Yeah, well, lawyers. +[966.00 --> 972.00] And then people that are like 14 and then are like, Dad, can I say that you bought a computer at this time? +[972.00 --> 974.00] Dad's like, sure, whatever. +[974.00 --> 977.00] And then that kid gets $15 and then buys a cheap game on Steam. +[977.00 --> 978.00] Yay! +[978.00 --> 982.00] Yeah, so the lawyers are the big winners, but that's about it. +[982.00 --> 984.00] And an educational charity. +[984.00 --> 985.00] Yeah, and a charity. +[985.00 --> 991.00] Speaking of being a big winner, Sony reports a $1.25 billion loss. +[991.00 --> 992.00] Did I say winner? +[992.00 --> 994.00] Because I meant loser. +[994.00 --> 996.00] Over the last quarter. +[996.00 --> 998.00] $1.25 billion US dollars. +[998.00 --> 999.00] Spearheaded, so... +[999.00 --> 1000.00] Oh, wow. +[1000.00 --> 1002.00] We haven't been posting original posters. +[1002.00 --> 1003.00] Oh, jeez. +[1003.00 --> 1004.00] Oh, no. +[1004.00 --> 1009.00] So, Intel caught cheating was stizzy, and the original article was from gizmodo.com. +[1009.00 --> 1013.00] And this one was posted by Goodbytes, and the original article is from neowind.net. +[1013.00 --> 1014.00] Not done. +[1014.00 --> 1022.00] The Hearthstone on Tablets post was by Johnners, and the Overwatch post was by Gruffalo. +[1022.00 --> 1024.00] I need this adapter. +[1024.00 --> 1028.00] As long as this isn't the one that I marked dead, and should just throw away because it +[1028.00 --> 1029.00] doesn't work. +[1029.00 --> 1030.00] Yeah, but what... +[1030.00 --> 1031.00] Oh, no. +[1031.00 --> 1032.00] This is the good one. +[1032.00 --> 1035.00] What I normally do is if it's dead, I cut it in half and then I just throw it away. +[1035.00 --> 1036.00] So people don't take it out of the garbage. +[1036.00 --> 1040.00] Yeah, I actually had a problem with people fishing the stuff that I had thrown away out +[1040.00 --> 1041.00] of the garbage. +[1041.00 --> 1043.00] I think an ethernet cable made the rounds like four times. +[1043.00 --> 1044.00] Yeah. +[1044.00 --> 1047.00] It's like, I'm just trying to network things. +[1047.00 --> 1049.00] I want them to just work. +[1049.00 --> 1054.00] Okay, so Linus's screen sharing is evidently not a thing right now. +[1054.00 --> 1055.00] Windows PE. +[1055.00 --> 1056.00] So, yeah. +[1056.00 --> 1059.00] No, Linus is not screen sharing today. +[1059.00 --> 1060.00] Okay, so from Neowind. +[1060.00 --> 1067.00] Sony reports $1.25 billion in losses led by Wright, mostly due to their mobile division, +[1067.00 --> 1072.00] which is a real shame because I don't know about necessarily the rest of their line-up, +[1072.00 --> 1078.00] but the Xperia Z2 is a really solid phone and it doesn't get the amount of attention that +[1078.00 --> 1079.00] I really think it deserves. +[1079.00 --> 1086.00] I mean, they were one of the first ones to glom onto that idea that, oh, wow, we should +[1086.00 --> 1088.00] make the battery bigger. +[1088.00 --> 1092.00] I mean, it's got a 3200 milliamp hour battery, which is significantly more than most of its +[1092.00 --> 1093.00] competition. +[1093.00 --> 1095.00] And they were the first ones to pioneer that whole waterproof thing. +[1095.00 --> 1098.00] Remember how much our brains exploded at CES? +[1098.00 --> 1099.00] That was pretty awesome. +[1099.00 --> 1100.00] Yeah. +[1100.00 --> 1101.00] When they had like the dunk tank with the phone? +[1101.00 --> 1102.00] Yeah, yeah. +[1102.00 --> 1103.00] That was actually pretty cool. +[1103.00 --> 1110.00] If they had a stock Android skin instead of their Sony skin, I probably would have bought +[1110.00 --> 1112.00] a Z3 by now because I'm up for an upgrade. +[1112.00 --> 1117.00] So, okay, I would have upgraded through my phone plan to a Z3. +[1117.00 --> 1121.00] So their movie division had an operating loss of $10 million, which in the grand scheme +[1121.00 --> 1124.00] of things is actually not that bad. +[1124.00 --> 1130.00] You know, they could have sold a couple more tickets to something and it's kind of a, you +[1130.00 --> 1132.00] kind of look at that and you go, okay, well maybe it'll be better next quarter. +[1132.00 --> 1133.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1133.00 --> 1135.00] You know, Hollywood accounting and all that kind of stuff. +[1135.00 --> 1136.00] Yep. +[1136.00 --> 1142.00] And so, you know, revenues increased in total 7%, although I personally, as much as investors +[1142.00 --> 1146.00] might care about this kind of thing, like Wall Street kind of cares about this, I kind +[1146.00 --> 1149.00] of look at it and I go, so what, you sold more but you lost more money? +[1149.00 --> 1151.00] How is that a business strategy? +[1151.00 --> 1152.00] That's not a good sign. +[1152.00 --> 1158.00] That just means you slashed your prices to liquidate and then you, like, on a very sort +[1158.00 --> 1161.00] of micro level, obviously they're doing it on a much larger scale. +[1161.00 --> 1162.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1162.00 --> 1164.00] Slashing things and liquidating. +[1164.00 --> 1169.00] And then their music division posted slight profits and PlayStation 4 maintained healthy +[1169.00 --> 1178.00] sales, although I really have to wonder with the way AAA gaming is going, is PlayStation +[1178.00 --> 1182.00] 4 a worthy competitor to the Wii U right now? +[1182.00 --> 1184.00] Oh, Wii U is smashing it so far. +[1184.00 --> 1185.00] And like with- +[1185.00 --> 1186.00] Get it, smashing it? +[1186.00 --> 1188.00] That was actually the point, yeah. +[1188.00 --> 1189.00] Sorry. +[1189.00 --> 1190.00] Yeah. +[1190.00 --> 1191.00] Boom. +[1191.00 --> 1192.00] Um. +[1192.00 --> 1193.00] Fist smash! +[1193.00 --> 1194.00] Smash stick! +[1194.00 --> 1198.00] Anyways, they're doing really well and with Smash around the corner and with, uh, what +[1198.00 --> 1199.00] is it called? +[1199.00 --> 1201.00] Squid, Squidroo or, I can't remember the name of the game. +[1201.00 --> 1202.00] Uh, Splatoon! +[1202.00 --> 1203.00] There we go. +[1203.00 --> 1206.00] With that around the corner getting really, really good reviews. +[1206.00 --> 1209.00] The Wii U has just been doing incredibly well lately. +[1209.00 --> 1213.00] And, uh, like something that I thought was amazing, which I tweeted out not that long +[1213.00 --> 1219.00] ago, was a whole bunch of Xbox and PlayStation, like that style of next gen console fanboys +[1219.00 --> 1223.00] ragging on Wii U before Xbox One and PS4 had been released. +[1223.00 --> 1224.00] Right. +[1224.00 --> 1227.00] Like, you think it's cool that you can run like 1080p 60fps? +[1227.00 --> 1228.00] That's pathetic! +[1228.00 --> 1229.00] Oh yeah! +[1229.00 --> 1234.00] I get a kick out of how many console fanboys still think that they're getting 4K at some +[1234.00 --> 1235.00] point. +[1235.00 --> 1237.00] No you aren't! +[1237.00 --> 1238.00] No dude, no. +[1238.00 --> 1241.00] Um, I don't, I don't know, I think it still will. +[1241.00 --> 1247.00] Um, because no matter how much I can go, like, yeah, the best setup is a Wii U and a +[1247.00 --> 1251.00] PC, or if you just have like little kids, maybe just a Wii U or something. +[1251.00 --> 1255.00] Um, because I'm a huge fan of Wii U and I'm a huge fan of PC gaming. +[1255.00 --> 1262.00] It's, it's, it's in this weird situation where, uh, like, kind of like with World of +[1262.00 --> 1265.00] Warcraft in a lot of ways, you want to play a game that all your friends are playing. +[1265.00 --> 1266.00] Yeah. +[1266.00 --> 1268.00] That's one of the big reasons why World of Warcraft exploded. +[1268.00 --> 1269.00] Yeah. +[1269.00 --> 1272.00] It's because if people wanted to play a game with a lot of their friends, it just catalyzed +[1272.00 --> 1275.00] so quickly because so many people started playing and it just blew up. +[1275.00 --> 1277.00] And that happens with consoles as well. +[1277.00 --> 1281.00] I remember being in high school, I wanted to play games with my friends. +[1281.00 --> 1286.00] Every single friend that I had was playing on consoles and then there's like me with my computer. +[1286.00 --> 1287.00] I'm like, yay. +[1287.00 --> 1288.00] Okay. +[1288.00 --> 1290.00] Hey guys, do you want to get together and play some games? +[1290.00 --> 1293.00] Um, where do I plug in my mouse and keyboard? +[1293.00 --> 1295.00] They're like, what? +[1295.00 --> 1298.00] Eventually I was able to like move everyone over onto my team. +[1298.00 --> 1300.00] But, um, yeah, there was a lot of console playing. +[1300.00 --> 1301.00] I had an Xbox. +[1301.00 --> 1302.00] I played Halo 2 online. +[1302.00 --> 1305.00] It was actually fantastic because Halo 2 was an amazing game. +[1305.00 --> 1306.00] Really? +[1306.00 --> 1310.00] So you didn't like catch the leprosy or something? +[1310.00 --> 1311.00] Console leprosy? +[1311.00 --> 1312.00] After Halo 2 I ditched hard. +[1312.00 --> 1315.00] I bought Halo 3 and I was like, wow, this game's terrible. +[1315.00 --> 1318.00] And then I stopped. +[1318.00 --> 1322.00] Um, but yeah, by that point I had moved a lot of my friends to PC gaming anyways. +[1322.00 --> 1324.00] So it just kind of worked out. +[1324.00 --> 1325.00] But like, I get it. +[1325.00 --> 1327.00] I understand why so many people are into it. +[1327.00 --> 1332.00] Um, I think it's actually, I'm part of that like PC Master Race group where it's like, +[1332.00 --> 1334.00] I actually feel bad for them. +[1334.00 --> 1336.00] Like I wish their experience was better. +[1336.00 --> 1337.00] Wow. +[1337.00 --> 1338.00] Their consoles just suck. +[1338.00 --> 1341.00] But no, if you look back at it, most console releases, they lose money when they sell the +[1341.00 --> 1342.00] machine. +[1342.00 --> 1344.00] And then they make money back on games and controllers and stuff. +[1344.00 --> 1347.00] Now they're making money from selling the machine because it's a giant piece of crap. +[1347.00 --> 1349.00] Well it's not very large. +[1349.00 --> 1351.00] Like I wish they had, well it's a small piece of crap. +[1351.00 --> 1353.00] It's a very slim lined piece of crap. +[1353.00 --> 1354.00] It doesn't smell bad. +[1354.00 --> 1355.00] It could. +[1355.00 --> 1357.00] So it's, it could, yes. +[1357.00 --> 1358.00] It smells, it's not static. +[1358.00 --> 1361.00] Anyways, um, yeah, I wish they had a better experience. +[1361.00 --> 1362.00] They just don't. +[1362.00 --> 1363.00] Okay. +[1363.00 --> 1365.00] You know what's kind of funny? +[1365.00 --> 1370.00] We have surprisingly few live viewers today and I'm not quite sure what's going on. +[1370.00 --> 1374.00] Ah yes, the announcement video on YouTube never went live for some reason. +[1374.00 --> 1376.00] It's sitting right here. +[1376.00 --> 1378.00] Oh, invalid request. +[1378.00 --> 1379.00] Authentication expired. +[1379.00 --> 1380.00] Well that's clever. +[1380.00 --> 1385.00] Let's go ahead and actually announce that we're live because that would be fantastic. +[1385.00 --> 1389.00] That's the kind of thing that you should do if you're live and streaming a video. +[1389.00 --> 1390.00] You should be like, yo dog, I'm live. +[1390.00 --> 1392.00] Y'all should come watch right about now. +[1392.00 --> 1396.00] It's going to be pretty cool and awesome and I can't believe we didn't do this. +[1396.00 --> 1400.00] I sort of suspected something earlier but then I got all carried away ranting about something +[1400.00 --> 1402.00] and then I got distracted. +[1402.00 --> 1406.00] Speaking of ranting about things and getting distracted, HTC's new charger gets your mobile +[1406.00 --> 1409.00] charging up to 40% faster. +[1409.00 --> 1414.00] So it takes advantage, this is not an HTC technology, it takes advantage of Qualcomm's Quick Charge +[1414.00 --> 1415.00] 2.0 technology. +[1415.00 --> 1426.00] So the 1M8, 1E8, 1M8 HK edition, Harman Kardon edition, ooh it's very special, and the Desire Eye can all utilize this new charger. +[1426.00 --> 1434.00] So they figure the certified charger can restore 60% to a 3300 milliamp hour battery in just 30 minutes. +[1434.00 --> 1436.00] That's awesome. I like that it's backwards compatible. +[1436.00 --> 1449.00] It's called the HTC Rapid Charger 2.0 and it not only works with the newer devices that support Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, but also older devices that support Quick Charge 1.0, albeit at a lesser rate. +[1449.00 --> 1460.00] So I've actually got at least, you know what, I'm pretty sure the Droid Turbo has a Quick Charge 2.0, but I also have a 1M8 so we have a Quick Charger on order already. +[1460.00 --> 1462.00] Not from HTC, it's a different one. +[1462.00 --> 1463.00] Yeah. +[1463.00 --> 1479.00] That I'm gonna try out, I'm gonna see how much of a difference it makes, because I think that even though we haven't gotten to that revolutionary stage yet, where we can charge our batteries in 15 seconds wirelessly, or we have batteries that last for five days at a time or whatever else. +[1479.00 --> 1480.00] That's what I'm hoping for. +[1480.00 --> 1481.00] That's what I'm hoping for. +[1481.00 --> 1499.00] If I can recharge in half an hour to an hour, let's say, and I can get a full day no matter how hard I abuse it out of the capacity of that battery, then that's at least a massive step towards that revolutionary next step. +[1499.00 --> 1506.00] The really cool part, in my opinion, about this, like, you can get 60% in half an hour, isn't even the half an hour part. +[1506.00 --> 1511.00] It's how much that comes down to in like a two minute or five minute frame. +[1511.00 --> 1512.00] Yeah. +[1512.00 --> 1514.00] The burst, like, oh my god, I need a little battery, but I can't stop. +[1514.00 --> 1517.00] I have seven minutes and nine seconds before I need to walk out the door. +[1517.00 --> 1518.00] Yes, yeah. +[1518.00 --> 1519.00] My phone is almost dead. +[1519.00 --> 1524.00] Can I get through this date that's probably gonna be horrible by texting on my phone the whole time? +[1524.00 --> 1526.00] If it dies, what am I gonna do? +[1526.00 --> 1529.00] I'm gonna have to actually look at her face, which is horrible. +[1529.00 --> 1530.00] Like that kind of thing, right? +[1530.00 --> 1531.00] Yeah. +[1531.00 --> 1533.00] That would be really helpful. +[1533.00 --> 1539.00] I don't, a lot of times, if it's gonna be able to sit there for half an hour, it's gonna be able to sit there for three hours. +[1539.00 --> 1541.00] It's gonna be able to sit there for more than that. +[1541.00 --> 1544.00] It's the very short burst charging that excites. +[1544.00 --> 1551.00] So I'm gonna use this to segue into my initial thoughts about the Droid Turbo from Motorola. +[1551.00 --> 1556.00] This is a Verizon exclusive device, and honestly, that's the biggest complaint I can come up with about it, +[1556.00 --> 1561.00] is that not everyone everywhere right now can buy it. +[1561.00 --> 1563.00] It's very early stages. +[1563.00 --> 1571.00] I first signed in to my Google account on it 21 hours ago, so I've been using it for very little time, but... +[1571.00 --> 1574.00] Is it Verizon exclusive for the world? +[1574.00 --> 1575.00] No. +[1575.00 --> 1576.00] Is it Verizon coming to Canada? +[1576.00 --> 1582.00] No, I think it's gonna be, there's rumors that it'll be called the Droid Max, or the Moto Max, or something like that. +[1582.00 --> 1583.00] So it'll have a different name. +[1583.00 --> 1586.00] Yeah, so it'll have a different name or whatever, but it'll probably be a very similar phone. +[1586.00 --> 1587.00] Yeah. +[1587.00 --> 1591.00] What's cool about it is, and this is a review unit, so I'm not sure if this will apply to the retail ones, +[1591.00 --> 1599.00] but the Verizon-ness of it is that I can't use MMS. Verizon doesn't allow MMS messages outside their own network, +[1599.00 --> 1600.00] and that's pretty locked. +[1600.00 --> 1606.00] Even after I rooted my wife's Droid DNA, she never got MMS working. +[1606.00 --> 1608.00] So there's that. +[1608.00 --> 1612.00] Limitation number two is that it comes with some Verizon stuff pre-installed on it +[1612.00 --> 1615.00] that you can go make a folder for somewhere and hide it. +[1615.00 --> 1620.00] And then limitation number three is that when you first put in your SIM, it boots up and says, +[1620.00 --> 1622.00] blah, blah, blah, this is not a Verizon SIM. +[1622.00 --> 1625.00] And then you press OK, and it drops you on the home screen. +[1625.00 --> 1626.00] Nice. +[1626.00 --> 1631.00] So it doesn't, so what I'm hoping is everyone will be able to buy one, +[1631.00 --> 1634.00] even if they can't necessarily get one with a carrier subsidy, +[1634.00 --> 1639.00] because the 3900 milliamp hour battery in here, they're claiming two days, +[1639.00 --> 1643.00] that's Motorola's sort of quote, is we want you to get through 48 hours per charge, +[1643.00 --> 1646.00] and I'm going to go, you know what, phone enthusiasts? +[1646.00 --> 1647.00] Yeah, it ain't happening. +[1647.00 --> 1648.00] It's not going to be two days. +[1648.00 --> 1655.00] Unless you were already getting one and two thirds of a day out of an Xperia Z2, +[1655.00 --> 1658.00] you're not going to get two days out of this, because it's like that much more. +[1658.00 --> 1665.00] But what I want from it, and what it looks like I'm going to get, is like one tank day. +[1665.00 --> 1667.00] Like no matter what I do to it. +[1667.00 --> 1670.00] So today, I am hitting it as hard as I can. +[1670.00 --> 1676.00] Like I used my GPS navigation to go to work and back, so that was a total of an hour today already. +[1676.00 --> 1678.00] No, more than that. About an hour and a half. +[1678.00 --> 1685.00] That used to kill, my phone used to die from full to zero completely on one of that trip. +[1685.00 --> 1687.00] One direction of that trip that you just pulled. +[1687.00 --> 1692.00] So I've had music running all day, I've had the screen brightness just kind of managing itself +[1692.00 --> 1694.00] rather than doing anything special with it. +[1694.00 --> 1698.00] I've had Bluetooth on, I've had everything on, and I've been constantly on it. +[1698.00 --> 1703.00] I've been doing all my emails and all my prep for WAN show I did on here instead of on my computer. +[1703.00 --> 1709.00] And I'm still at 37%, and I'm tethering to my laptop throughout the entire WAN show. +[1709.00 --> 1712.00] Like I'm trying to throw a worst case scenario at it, and if it can make it through this day. +[1712.00 --> 1714.00] And he's leaving the screen on this whole time. +[1714.00 --> 1716.00] Yeah, with even... like I'm hurting it. +[1716.00 --> 1717.00] He's destroying it. +[1717.00 --> 1722.00] If it can make it through this day with 5% left, with all my apps and all my services running in the background, +[1722.00 --> 1727.00] including the Moto 360 connectedness, I'm going to be really impressed. +[1727.00 --> 1729.00] And this is going to be my new daily driver for sure. +[1729.00 --> 1730.00] Yeah. +[1730.00 --> 1734.00] So there you go, that's my initial thoughts. Full review to come though, of course. +[1734.00 --> 1737.00] People are asking about full room water cooling. +[1737.00 --> 1738.00] It'll come. +[1738.00 --> 1739.00] It'll come. +[1739.00 --> 1741.00] I have a post in the water cooling section about it. +[1741.00 --> 1742.00] It'll be on the way. +[1742.00 --> 1744.00] And then mineral oil, we have like a... +[1744.00 --> 1745.00] Monday night. +[1745.00 --> 1746.00] Monday night. +[1746.00 --> 1747.00] Okay. +[1747.00 --> 1748.00] Monday night. +[1748.00 --> 1749.00] It's on the schedule. +[1749.00 --> 1750.00] It's actually edited now. +[1750.00 --> 1751.00] Perfect. +[1751.00 --> 1752.00] There you go. +[1752.00 --> 1753.00] Yeah, I thought we had a date. +[1753.00 --> 1754.00] I wasn't sure, so I didn't want to say it. +[1754.00 --> 1755.00] So yeah, Monday night, mineral oil is coming. +[1755.00 --> 1760.00] Tell you what, tomorrow is the Sennheiser Momentum in-ear earphones. +[1760.00 --> 1761.00] Tomorrow night. +[1761.00 --> 1765.00] The following night is LG's Curved Surround Part 1. +[1765.00 --> 1766.00] That'll be cool. +[1766.00 --> 1768.00] And then the night after that is Oil-Cooled Part 2. +[1768.00 --> 1769.00] Which should also be really cool. +[1769.00 --> 1773.00] So it's all going to be really good stuff for the next few days. +[1773.00 --> 1774.00] I haven't even seen Oil-Cooled Part 2. +[1774.00 --> 1775.00] I'm excited. +[1775.00 --> 1777.00] I watched number one and I was like, wow, that was really cool. +[1777.00 --> 1779.00] And I was like, wait a second, I was in that. +[1779.00 --> 1780.00] Yeah, I was there. +[1780.00 --> 1781.00] Yay! +[1781.00 --> 1785.00] Yeah, Burkle got it down to 13 minutes. +[1785.00 --> 1786.00] Nice. +[1786.00 --> 1787.00] Yeah, so it's pretty... +[1787.00 --> 1788.00] Like three hours of footage or something? +[1788.00 --> 1789.00] It's pretty compact. +[1789.00 --> 1790.00] Yeah. +[1790.00 --> 1792.00] Alright, so speaking of things that are going to be good. +[1792.00 --> 1793.00] Oh my goodness. +[1793.00 --> 1795.00] This is freaking awesome. +[1795.00 --> 1796.00] Oh yeah. +[1796.00 --> 1800.00] Now you can use your Gmail app with other email accounts. +[1800.00 --> 1805.00] Like, I don't know about you guys, but I still have a Hotmail.com account that is tied +[1805.00 --> 1820.00] that is tied to so many things that it's just way more work than it's worth because, you know, some site will like change their domain and send me a notification about it at some point and I'll have like something or something. +[1820.00 --> 1822.00] And it'll go to that email address. +[1822.00 --> 1827.00] But I hate the Hotmail interface or Outlook or whatever it is they call it these days. +[1827.00 --> 1828.00] Yeah. +[1828.00 --> 1829.00] Absolutely hate it. +[1829.00 --> 1830.00] Being able to... +[1830.00 --> 1831.00] Especially the mobile one. +[1831.00 --> 1832.00] Yes, especially the mobile one. +[1832.00 --> 1835.00] Being able to use my Gmail app for that. +[1835.00 --> 1836.00] Yeah. +[1836.00 --> 1839.00] Which means hopefully eventually inbox? +[1839.00 --> 1840.00] Maybe. +[1840.00 --> 1841.00] Maybe. +[1841.00 --> 1842.00] This isn't inbox. +[1842.00 --> 1843.00] No. +[1843.00 --> 1844.00] We have to be very clear about that. +[1844.00 --> 1847.00] New Gmail app, which I actually just started using. +[1847.00 --> 1848.00] It just rolled out to me. +[1848.00 --> 1849.00] I updated to it. +[1849.00 --> 1851.00] Has a very different look and feel to it. +[1851.00 --> 1853.00] It has that, what are they calling it? +[1853.00 --> 1854.00] Material design? +[1854.00 --> 1855.00] Yes, I think so. +[1855.00 --> 1857.00] Material design kind of look to it, which is just... +[1857.00 --> 1858.00] I don't care. +[1858.00 --> 1860.00] Everything's kind of in the same place. +[1860.00 --> 1861.00] Some stuff's round now. +[1861.00 --> 1862.00] It's like, okay. +[1862.00 --> 1864.00] Yay, curved edges. +[1864.00 --> 1865.00] So there's that. +[1865.00 --> 1872.00] It's going to match better with the upcoming Android Lollipop. +[1872.00 --> 1880.00] But the new Gmail is completely separate from inbox, which I got an invite from someone and thank you so much for that. +[1880.00 --> 1886.00] But it hasn't been very useful for me because I use my corporate account as my primary email. +[1886.00 --> 1890.00] And corporate accounts are not able to get in on Google inbox yet. +[1890.00 --> 1891.00] But you have been using it. +[1891.00 --> 1892.00] You want to talk about it? +[1892.00 --> 1894.00] Yeah, I use both. +[1894.00 --> 1896.00] I actually mainly use my corporate account as well. +[1896.00 --> 1902.00] But I use my personal one because I have taken all of my like Hotmail accounts and stuff that he was talking about. +[1902.00 --> 1905.00] Old accounts that are linked to too many things to get rid of. +[1905.00 --> 1909.00] And I've ported all of them through that one remaining personal account that I have. +[1909.00 --> 1913.00] So I'm using that one for like six different emails essentially. +[1913.00 --> 1915.00] And so I actually use it. +[1915.00 --> 1917.00] I got the invite from the same person he did. +[1917.00 --> 1919.00] And it's kind of great. +[1919.00 --> 1921.00] The email reminder thing is fantastic. +[1921.00 --> 1927.00] Because like my mom will send me an email about some family gathering thing that I like really need to pay attention to. +[1927.00 --> 1929.00] But I got it at 2 p.m. on a work day. +[1929.00 --> 1932.00] Or I'll send you an email at 3 in the morning. +[1932.00 --> 1933.00] Yeah. +[1933.00 --> 1937.00] And that will get buried by other random crap by the time you actually arrive at work. +[1937.00 --> 1939.00] So being able to... +[1939.00 --> 1940.00] Yeah. +[1940.00 --> 1943.00] And like I might have received it at 3 in the morning and I'll be like, oh this is important. +[1943.00 --> 1946.00] But starring things in Gmail puts them below your important. +[1946.00 --> 1948.00] And I just forget about them forever. +[1948.00 --> 1949.00] Yeah. +[1949.00 --> 1950.00] Which is not helpful. +[1950.00 --> 1955.00] So now I can be like, remind me at this specific time or like later today or whatever. +[1955.00 --> 1959.00] So with say work emails from Linus, I'll be like, remind me at like 10 a.m. or something. +[1959.00 --> 1962.00] Like in the morning once I'm at work doing stuff. +[1962.00 --> 1968.00] And with emails from like my mom, I'll be like, remind me at like 7 or 8 when I'm home and doing random stuff. +[1968.00 --> 1970.00] So I find that really, really helpful. +[1970.00 --> 1971.00] I like the reminder system. +[1971.00 --> 1972.00] It's great. +[1972.00 --> 1974.00] It will remind you on time. +[1974.00 --> 1977.00] It'll put reminders of anything inside your email inbox. +[1977.00 --> 1980.00] So when you go to check your emails, you're like, oh, I remember this now. +[1980.00 --> 1983.00] It's actually a lot more helpful than just setting random timed reminders. +[1983.00 --> 1988.00] Because you might be able to remind yourself earlier and that'll help you prepare, yadda, yadda, yadda. +[1988.00 --> 1995.00] And it's very, very easy to get through stuff like Amazon plugging you with emails for toasters. +[1995.00 --> 1999.00] Because you bought a toaster six months ago and it thinks that you need 40 more. +[1999.00 --> 2002.00] Because it'll bundle things in sections, say promotions. +[2002.00 --> 2008.00] You can jump into promotions, read all the titles and it'll give you a little bit of a blurb of the email as well. +[2008.00 --> 2010.00] Which should be able to explain what it's all about. +[2010.00 --> 2019.00] So I'll see like Amazon, like any Steam stuff, Uplay, all that kind of stuff all dumped in one spot with different sales and whatnot. +[2019.00 --> 2022.00] And I'll scroll through it all and be like, wow, I don't want to spend money. +[2022.00 --> 2024.00] Checkbox, they're all gone. +[2024.00 --> 2028.00] It's very easy to really, really quickly get through those types of emails, which is really helpful. +[2028.00 --> 2029.00] All right. +[2029.00 --> 2032.00] So let's go ahead and move on to our next actual topic. +[2032.00 --> 2036.00] Because I think we kind of got distracted a couple times there in the last little bit. +[2036.00 --> 2044.00] HP and, excuse me, HP and Microsoft are dropping the hammer. +[2044.00 --> 2049.00] They're dropping a bomb, lowering the boom, and they're doing something with a hammer. +[2049.00 --> 2055.00] Because Chromebooks may not make any sense to me anymore. +[2055.00 --> 2057.00] This looks really compelling. +[2057.00 --> 2065.00] So they've launched the new HP Stream lineup that includes the Stream 7, the Stream 8, the Stream 11, and the Stream 13. +[2065.00 --> 2068.00] So the 7 and the 8 are tablets. +[2068.00 --> 2071.00] The 7 is a 7-inch Windows tablet at $100. +[2071.00 --> 2074.00] Now they're not really saying anything about specs. +[2074.00 --> 2076.00] We do know that it's an Intel-based solution. +[2076.00 --> 2077.00] Yeah. +[2077.00 --> 2082.00] So probably some kind of super low power Atom thing or even something else. +[2082.00 --> 2084.00] Not 100% sure what it is. +[2084.00 --> 2085.00] Probably Atom. +[2085.00 --> 2089.00] And then the 8 is an 8-inch Windows tablet at $150. +[2089.00 --> 2092.00] So this was originally posted on the forum by Top Wargamer. +[2092.00 --> 2094.00] And the original article here is from The Verge. +[2094.00 --> 2097.00] And this is where things start to get crazy. +[2097.00 --> 2104.00] The Stream 8 comes with 200 megs of free LTE data each month with no contract. +[2104.00 --> 2105.00] So cool. +[2105.00 --> 2107.00] And right now presumably through T-Mobile. +[2107.00 --> 2111.00] Now I've been saying for a long time that I think that cloud storage is, +[2111.00 --> 2118.00] cloud storage is super cool except for when you're on mobile and you're using a lame-o data limit. +[2118.00 --> 2126.00] Well now, okay, you're not going to be transferring like movies to and from your cloud storage with 200 megs. +[2126.00 --> 2131.00] But if we're talking about a tablet that's going to be used predominantly for work, +[2131.00 --> 2136.00] well that's lots for the odd text document and some pictures here and there. +[2136.00 --> 2143.00] And that sounds fantastic, especially when I throw in this next little bit, which is that both tablets get a year of Office 365, +[2143.00 --> 2149.00] one terabyte of OneDrive storage, and 60 minutes of Skype calling included in the purchase. +[2149.00 --> 2151.00] Actually kind of awesome. +[2151.00 --> 2154.00] That's like, I wonder if you break that value down, what that totals. +[2154.00 --> 2157.00] I wonder how close that is to the total cost of the actual device. +[2157.00 --> 2161.00] I think for the 7 that costs more, like sticker price. +[2161.00 --> 2163.00] So you might as well just buy a 7. +[2163.00 --> 2165.00] If you're going to use all those things. +[2165.00 --> 2166.00] If you're going to use those services. +[2166.00 --> 2167.00] Which I could see. +[2167.00 --> 2169.00] I pay for an Office 365 account. +[2169.00 --> 2170.00] It's awesome. +[2170.00 --> 2171.00] I love it. +[2171.00 --> 2173.00] I just, the way it works now is... +[2173.00 --> 2178.00] I really like the graph creation and I'm probably going to switch to Office 365 just because they look better. +[2178.00 --> 2180.00] And whenever I create graphs, they don't look as good anymore. +[2180.00 --> 2181.00] Yep. +[2181.00 --> 2183.00] Office 365 is really great. +[2183.00 --> 2193.00] And I hope that they move Windows to something like that because I think that personal licensing makes a lot more sense than device licensing in the modern world. +[2193.00 --> 2195.00] Where my device is very interchangeable. +[2195.00 --> 2202.00] I mean, I can switch over to a new phone within about, you know, an hour of dinking around and changing desktop wallpapers and ringtones and stuff. +[2202.00 --> 2204.00] So the device is not the important thing. +[2204.00 --> 2205.00] The important thing is me. +[2205.00 --> 2211.00] I'm allowed to use Google Play Music and Office and Windows or whatever else. +[2211.00 --> 2214.00] And wherever I happen to be, that should be where all of my stuff is. +[2214.00 --> 2217.00] And this, this is that. +[2217.00 --> 2219.00] This looks fantastic. +[2219.00 --> 2222.00] Now, then things get even more interesting. +[2222.00 --> 2230.00] Because you could kind of look at it and you go, okay, well, Linus, a 7 and 8 inch low spec tablet is not exactly a competitor for a Chromebook. +[2230.00 --> 2233.00] Because Chromebooks are books. +[2233.00 --> 2234.00] They're not books. +[2234.00 --> 2235.00] They're laptops actually. +[2235.00 --> 2238.00] But the point is not necessarily the 7 and the 8. +[2238.00 --> 2241.00] The point is the Stream 11 and Stream 13. +[2241.00 --> 2246.00] So the 11 is an 11.6 inch laptop with an HD display at 200 bucks. +[2246.00 --> 2252.00] And the 13 is a 13.3 inch laptop that has an option for touch screen, also assumed to be an HD display, priced at 230 bucks. +[2252.00 --> 2260.00] Both using dual core Celerons with fanless designs, 32 gigs of flash storage, and both come with a free year of Office 365. +[2260.00 --> 2261.00] Wow. +[2261.00 --> 2263.00] That's kind of awesome. +[2263.00 --> 2265.00] You know how you said the book thing? +[2265.00 --> 2268.00] Well, laptops aren't technically tops either. +[2268.00 --> 2270.00] Like spinning tops. +[2270.00 --> 2271.00] Get it? +[2271.00 --> 2272.00] Get it? +[2272.00 --> 2273.00] Get it? +[2273.00 --> 2274.00] Get it? +[2274.00 --> 2275.00] You know how you put it in the web? +[2275.00 --> 2276.00] Oh, that's so cool. +[2276.00 --> 2277.00] They're not... +[2277.00 --> 2278.00] Oh. +[2278.00 --> 2279.00] All right. +[2279.00 --> 2280.00] Yeah. +[2280.00 --> 2281.00] So let's just move on now. +[2281.00 --> 2282.00] So, you know what? +[2282.00 --> 2283.00] We got to Twitter blitz this, guys. +[2283.00 --> 2284.00] Chromebook or Stream. +[2284.00 --> 2286.00] We want to hear from you guys. +[2286.00 --> 2290.00] And maybe, I know it's 140 characters, but give us a couple thoughts about why. +[2290.00 --> 2299.00] Because you look at Chrome OS and you kind of go, okay, well I can run a Chrome browser and I can run all my apps and like, you know, that's cool. +[2299.00 --> 2301.00] in my browser, but... +[2301.00 --> 2302.42] I've never liked that experience, personally. +[2302.66 --> 2303.04] No, it's awful. +[2303.04 --> 2304.56] I've never been interested in a Chromebook at any point. +[2304.56 --> 2308.08] Look, I'm trying to present it as if I actually think it's a good idea, okay? +[2308.08 --> 2308.14] Okay. +[2308.44 --> 2310.40] So Chrome OS, so you got your... +[2310.40 --> 2311.08] And you know what? +[2311.20 --> 2315.02] When I did try to use it for a little while, whenever I had internet connectivity, it wasn't +[2315.02 --> 2315.46] that bad. +[2315.68 --> 2318.98] But the Chrome experience relies on connectivity. +[2319.24 --> 2321.90] Everything runs in this browser, and things... +[2321.90 --> 2322.98] Office 365 doesn't care. +[2323.14 --> 2328.44] And, well, you can use Google's stuff offline and then sync it once you reach a connection +[2328.44 --> 2328.66] again. +[2328.78 --> 2330.04] Like, they do have answers to that. +[2330.04 --> 2338.24] But the truth of the matter is that Office 365 is a paid solution, and Drive and Sheets +[2338.24 --> 2343.48] and whatever are not a paid solution because a paid solution is just... +[2343.48 --> 2343.82] One is a lot better. +[2343.84 --> 2345.68] One is just a lot better than the other one. +[2345.80 --> 2346.40] I'm... +[2346.40 --> 2350.54] Honestly, I like Google Docs because of some of the collaboration stuff that allows us to +[2350.54 --> 2350.84] do. +[2351.06 --> 2351.60] Very cool. +[2351.66 --> 2355.10] But a lot of times, if it's just something that I'm only going to be working on and not +[2355.10 --> 2359.86] other people, I will use local solutions like Word and Excel because Google Docs is not +[2359.86 --> 2360.32] that great. +[2360.32 --> 2361.62] They're just better. +[2361.74 --> 2361.92] Yeah. +[2362.04 --> 2363.20] In a lot of ways. +[2363.28 --> 2363.92] Even... +[2363.92 --> 2364.24] Ugh. +[2364.34 --> 2368.68] Like, I'm going to bring my love for Notepad++ up here for a second. +[2369.02 --> 2373.54] But if you have it open in two locations, and you make revisions in one location and save +[2373.54 --> 2376.84] it, when you go over to the other location, it won't just be broken. +[2377.32 --> 2377.42] Right. +[2377.42 --> 2381.80] When you try to even just click on the window, it'll be like, oh, this has been saved and +[2381.80 --> 2382.80] remade on another machine. +[2382.80 --> 2384.14] Would you like to reload the file? +[2384.34 --> 2385.46] You just say yes and just boop. +[2385.90 --> 2387.56] So, like, there's even better... +[2387.56 --> 2388.08] There's... +[2388.08 --> 2390.78] Like, the collaboration for local stuff is not even that bad. +[2390.90 --> 2391.14] Right. +[2391.26 --> 2392.04] If you have multiple computers. +[2392.14 --> 2394.32] And, like, I'll work on something at home and I'll work on something at work. +[2394.72 --> 2397.96] And if I'm working on it at home and then just leave and then save it also at work and +[2397.96 --> 2399.06] come back and just like, oh, reload. +[2399.58 --> 2399.76] Yeah. +[2399.84 --> 2400.76] And the thing... +[2400.76 --> 2406.78] And that kind of collaboration, so, like, personal self-collaboration almost, is great +[2406.78 --> 2407.24] for that. +[2407.24 --> 2413.38] But the other kind of collaboration, person-to-person collaboration, especially where I'm editing +[2413.38 --> 2417.98] something that someone else produced and I want to leave comments and I want to keep, +[2418.12 --> 2422.46] like, I want to have, like, a really nicely organized change history, it's much better +[2422.46 --> 2423.78] for me to use something like Office. +[2423.78 --> 2425.36] It just works better. +[2426.32 --> 2428.52] Google Docs has a pretty good change history and stuff. +[2428.72 --> 2430.10] But I also like... +[2430.10 --> 2431.88] It's not as well later. +[2432.22 --> 2432.34] Yeah. +[2432.34 --> 2433.16] I like Office as well. +[2433.18 --> 2433.30] Yeah. +[2433.64 --> 2434.62] Um, okay. +[2434.82 --> 2435.96] So, right. +[2436.08 --> 2436.24] Yeah. +[2436.28 --> 2437.18] Let's go to the Twitter Blitz. +[2437.22 --> 2438.16] I want to hear from you guys. +[2438.86 --> 2440.12] I also had your responses at some point. +[2440.86 --> 2442.44] What's wrong with the Outlook interface? +[2442.86 --> 2443.34] You know what? +[2443.38 --> 2446.24] I have to confess I haven't used it that recently. +[2446.56 --> 2451.60] But if I were to do a review of it today, I'm sure I could find at least a dozen things +[2451.60 --> 2453.46] that are just brain dead about it. +[2453.78 --> 2455.30] I mainly just don't like the app. +[2455.30 --> 2458.82] Honestly, the online version, like, the web browser... +[2458.82 --> 2461.52] The web version has some pretty annoying crap about it. +[2461.52 --> 2463.58] Yeah, but it's not nearly as bad as Hotmail was. +[2463.58 --> 2464.84] And it's a lot better than it used to be. +[2464.96 --> 2465.14] Yeah. +[2466.18 --> 2466.54] Okay. +[2467.06 --> 2472.06] Alex says, I am all for the HP and Microsoft solution as I can't go without my desktop apps +[2472.06 --> 2472.74] and move to a browser. +[2472.82 --> 2473.22] You know what? +[2473.70 --> 2474.42] Great point. +[2474.56 --> 2475.70] We didn't even bring that up. +[2475.80 --> 2477.12] It's a full Windows OS. +[2477.26 --> 2477.46] Yeah. +[2477.46 --> 2479.46] So you can actually install things on the laptops. +[2480.52 --> 2481.46] We only have 32 gigs, but... +[2482.10 --> 2485.22] But you can have stuff on it. +[2485.22 --> 2485.28] Yeah. +[2485.28 --> 2487.16] And you're not expecting to play games. +[2487.30 --> 2489.70] So most of your apps won't even be that big and you can probably fit it on the... +[2489.70 --> 2493.16] Well, a big problem that I had with Chrome OS was things like codec compatibility. +[2493.42 --> 2496.86] And I don't know if they've addressed that recently, but back when I looked at Acer's +[2496.86 --> 2503.40] Chromebook, I was like, okay, so I can watch, like, these videos and not these other ones. +[2503.52 --> 2504.90] And if you can just install, like... +[2504.90 --> 2505.28] VLC. +[2505.44 --> 2509.08] VLC, Windows Media Player Classic, and CCCP, you're just good for everything. +[2509.08 --> 2510.96] And 32 gigs is not going to be a problem. +[2510.96 --> 2516.14] That's still lots of storage for just those little things that make your life a little bit easier. +[2516.14 --> 2516.50] You know? +[2516.50 --> 2517.02] Just fix stuff. +[2517.16 --> 2517.30] Yeah. +[2517.70 --> 2518.06] Okay. +[2519.00 --> 2522.96] Max says, stream because it would make a great cheap portable Linux device. +[2523.18 --> 2523.78] Great point. +[2524.26 --> 2527.12] Was never interested in Chrome or Chrome OS from Agent 47. +[2527.64 --> 2529.84] This might be intriguing for all the extra stuff you get. +[2529.94 --> 2531.82] Office 365 is actually good. +[2532.56 --> 2533.18] Oh, sure. +[2533.24 --> 2533.66] Why not? +[2533.78 --> 2537.78] Let's experiment live and find out what this actually is. +[2537.78 --> 2538.12] Just check it first. +[2539.30 --> 2539.74] Okay. +[2540.08 --> 2540.30] Yeah. +[2540.34 --> 2540.72] You know what? +[2540.78 --> 2542.46] Let's make that the official one. +[2542.46 --> 2546.22] So, let's go ahead and, uh... +[2546.22 --> 2547.96] Let's just post that here. +[2548.30 --> 2551.30] I hope that I'm already logged in, because otherwise this is going to take me a second. +[2551.42 --> 2551.92] Sorry, guys. +[2555.16 --> 2555.92] Oh, oh! +[2556.06 --> 2556.92] I typoed! +[2556.98 --> 2557.56] I suck! +[2557.84 --> 2558.78] I'm a bad person! +[2559.34 --> 2560.02] Oh, no, I got it. +[2560.44 --> 2563.62] I typoed, but it logged in anyway, so apparently Twitch just doesn't care. +[2565.80 --> 2566.36] All right. +[2566.60 --> 2567.32] Close ad. +[2567.46 --> 2568.28] Stop ad. +[2568.64 --> 2570.54] Please, just let me send a message in the chat. +[2570.82 --> 2571.08] In the... +[2571.08 --> 2571.24] Whoops. +[2572.46 --> 2574.88] All right. +[2574.92 --> 2575.94] Let's pretend that didn't happen. +[2576.36 --> 2576.74] All right. +[2576.78 --> 2577.56] That's official now. +[2577.62 --> 2579.40] So, let's go ahead and let's go back to Twitter here. +[2580.52 --> 2581.36] Oh, my God. +[2581.70 --> 2585.10] Tony says, stream, because there are no applications for Chrome OS. +[2585.42 --> 2587.68] No isn't fair, but it is very limited. +[2587.68 --> 2587.82] Limited. +[2587.82 --> 2588.34] You're very right. +[2589.00 --> 2592.80] Definitely the stream 13, because I want Windows instead of Chrome OS, better compatibility. +[2593.58 --> 2594.26] Spam Jazz. +[2594.40 --> 2595.18] Oh, this is interesting. +[2595.34 --> 2597.32] Our school supplied all the kids with Chromebooks. +[2597.42 --> 2600.02] They don't run plugins and players, so they're sort of a waste. +[2600.02 --> 2603.58] I would rather have something running Windows than not, says Jack. +[2603.68 --> 2606.38] I've used Chromebooks and been very unhappy with them. +[2607.70 --> 2608.10] MSI. +[2608.48 --> 2608.80] Mm-hmm. +[2608.92 --> 2609.22] Okay. +[2610.18 --> 2613.06] I now want a laptop, and it's going to be a stream one with a touchscreen. +[2613.58 --> 2614.40] Really interesting. +[2614.40 --> 2616.56] I don't think we have ever... +[2616.56 --> 2616.94] Oh, no. +[2617.00 --> 2617.38] There we go. +[2617.44 --> 2621.12] I was about to say, I don't think we've ever had the entire audience as unanimous about +[2621.12 --> 2622.04] something as this. +[2622.86 --> 2624.16] But BCD says... +[2624.16 --> 2626.64] Oh, I think he might have misunderstood. +[2627.90 --> 2631.28] Two of the devices are laptops with keyboards. +[2631.66 --> 2631.88] Yeah. +[2632.34 --> 2632.86] And they're still... +[2632.86 --> 2633.86] That's a good point. +[2634.18 --> 2634.36] Yeah. +[2634.36 --> 2637.18] Because especially if you're in a production thing, like if you're doing work and you need +[2637.18 --> 2640.42] to use Excel or Word, not using a real keyboard is going to be really frustrating. +[2640.56 --> 2641.94] This is a great point from Austin. +[2642.16 --> 2646.36] Stream, because I don't think it's fair to say it's stupid and pointless, but... +[2647.00 --> 2647.52] Stupid pointless. +[2647.74 --> 2652.84] But Windows can do everything that Chrome OS can and more. +[2653.08 --> 2657.38] So if you're getting a low-cost device where you're not saddled with that extra $100 burden +[2657.38 --> 2662.14] of the Windows license, then yeah, why not have Windows? +[2662.24 --> 2663.34] Because you can put a Chrome browser on Windows. +[2663.34 --> 2666.18] Yeah, you can still install Chrome and you can still install Chrome apps. +[2666.82 --> 2668.76] So, yay, best of both worlds. +[2669.68 --> 2672.84] Chrome, Chrome, Chromebooks, as far as I can tell... +[2672.84 --> 2676.52] I mean, I'd love to review one of these laptops just so that I can get a feel for the build +[2676.52 --> 2677.30] quality and everything. +[2677.52 --> 2681.86] Because if they're decent, I don't understand why Chromebooks get to exist in the world anymore +[2681.86 --> 2682.22] at all. +[2682.82 --> 2683.96] I never liked them in the first place. +[2684.02 --> 2687.34] So now that there's something that just stomps them and actually looks interesting, like +[2687.34 --> 2688.16] this is actually intriguing. +[2688.44 --> 2692.40] I wouldn't have been able to do it for the schooling I did, but if you're taking like +[2692.40 --> 2696.10] business or something like that, this makes a ton of sense, especially considering how +[2696.10 --> 2696.64] cheap it is. +[2696.68 --> 2702.70] You could almost use it as like a throwaway every single time your Office 365 subscription +[2702.70 --> 2704.70] died and just get a new one. +[2705.16 --> 2706.16] And it would almost be... +[2706.16 --> 2707.00] And flip the old one. +[2707.12 --> 2707.46] Yeah. +[2707.76 --> 2712.42] And it would almost be like more cost effective than just buying like a $1,000 laptop and +[2712.42 --> 2716.22] carrying that through school because it's actually cheaper and you could just try to +[2716.22 --> 2720.04] sell off your old ones as you went through and you'd have a constant Office 365 subscription, +[2720.88 --> 2723.32] constant updates on your Skype payment. +[2723.80 --> 2724.80] And what's the other one? +[2725.00 --> 2725.22] Drive. +[2725.36 --> 2726.08] A terabyte of... +[2726.08 --> 2726.16] Yeah. +[2726.16 --> 2726.28] Yeah. +[2726.28 --> 2726.70] One drive. +[2726.88 --> 2730.60] So you'd constantly have a terabyte of drive, constantly have Office 365, which you'd be paying +[2730.60 --> 2731.24] for anyways. +[2732.02 --> 2733.20] Constantly have Skype stuff. +[2733.30 --> 2733.98] Well, not constantly. +[2734.18 --> 2735.66] Have a fair amount of Skype time. +[2735.66 --> 2738.68] And then a brand new laptop every single year. +[2738.76 --> 2740.98] And it's still cheaper than buying one $1,000 laptop. +[2741.18 --> 2745.90] I can always count on you to give me the like supremely cheap bastard perspective on things, +[2745.98 --> 2746.30] can't I? +[2746.56 --> 2749.76] Knowing me, I would just buy one of them and then carry it the whole way through. +[2750.16 --> 2754.00] But if you wanted to, you could do that as well. +[2754.00 --> 2758.26] Speaking of being a supremely cheap bastard, let's move into our sponsor segments here. +[2758.26 --> 2762.96] So we're not going to do the same thing that we did for Dollar Shave Club last time around +[2762.96 --> 2767.74] where we used a no-name razor and I pretended to bleed all over the place. +[2767.82 --> 2769.28] That stuff tasted awful. +[2769.48 --> 2773.18] But what we will do is tell you guys about the benefits of Dollar Shave Club. +[2773.28 --> 2778.64] So you can get high quality bathroom supplies, razors, shave butter, which is different from +[2778.64 --> 2781.62] shave cream and actually not made of butter. +[2781.72 --> 2782.56] That would be disgusting. +[2782.70 --> 2782.96] Can you imagine? +[2782.96 --> 2783.74] That would be really gross. +[2783.84 --> 2784.90] Smearing butter all over your face. +[2784.90 --> 2789.64] It's like, yeah, shave your face with butter so you can break out all over the place. +[2789.78 --> 2790.10] Yeah. +[2790.86 --> 2793.94] And then shave off your zits because that's a fact. +[2796.26 --> 2797.32] No, no, no. +[2797.38 --> 2802.94] Shave butter is just this clear stuff that they have that kind of smells nice and you put +[2802.94 --> 2803.76] it on your face to shave. +[2803.94 --> 2807.10] And it's nice because it's clear so you can kind of see what you're doing and all that +[2807.10 --> 2807.30] stuff. +[2807.52 --> 2810.56] They've also got their one-wipe Charlies, peppermint-scented butt wipes for men. +[2810.56 --> 2812.96] But the real big one is, of course, the razor. +[2812.96 --> 2816.82] So you sign up, you pay a fraction of what you would pay if you were to go to the store +[2816.82 --> 2817.46] and buy razors. +[2817.66 --> 2822.96] You don't actually have to leave your house to look good enough to leave your house, which +[2822.96 --> 2823.78] is great. +[2824.16 --> 2824.70] I love that part. +[2825.00 --> 2826.08] You do, don't you? +[2826.16 --> 2826.80] It's amazing. +[2828.08 --> 2829.66] You should be ashamed of yourself. +[2830.06 --> 2833.82] I've been working on a secret project, so I've got a little bit of stuff going on. +[2833.82 --> 2838.92] So visit dollarshaveclub.com slash Linus to learn more and join the club. +[2839.02 --> 2841.88] It's available in Canada, the US, and Australia. +[2842.52 --> 2848.16] And maybe if you guys who aren't in those places clamor loud enough, because I've personally +[2848.16 --> 2853.04] received a ton of requests for Dollar Shave Club to expand outside of those territories. +[2853.16 --> 2856.54] I'm sitting here, I'm going, I do sponsorship spots. +[2856.54 --> 2857.62] He doesn't run the company. +[2857.62 --> 2858.70] Yeah, I'm not the CEO. +[2859.16 --> 2860.94] So you guys got to contact them. +[2861.00 --> 2862.14] Let them know that you're interested. +[2862.64 --> 2865.88] And people in Twitch chat keep on saying, and this happens every week, but people in +[2865.88 --> 2868.76] Twitch chat are saying that like, oh, he doesn't need razors. +[2868.84 --> 2869.62] He obviously doesn't shave. +[2869.86 --> 2871.58] You still have to shave if you have a beard. +[2871.88 --> 2876.44] Like you, if I didn't, it would be like down here and disgusting and like all over my face. +[2876.58 --> 2877.38] Yeah, more disgusting. +[2877.66 --> 2877.80] Yeah. +[2877.86 --> 2878.42] Even worse. +[2878.42 --> 2881.90] I haven't shaved in a while because it's November, but yeah. +[2883.22 --> 2885.62] I haven't shaved since the beginning of November either. +[2885.88 --> 2886.28] Really? +[2886.54 --> 2887.06] No, I haven't. +[2887.18 --> 2890.66] I was like, that looks better than when we were at the Highlander thing. +[2890.68 --> 2890.90] Yeah. +[2891.38 --> 2891.82] All right. +[2891.90 --> 2896.46] So, and then with the money that you save by joining Dollar Shave Club, you can go learn +[2896.46 --> 2896.96] something. +[2896.96 --> 2903.26] So go to lynda.com slash WANshow for a free seven day trial of their service, where basically +[2903.26 --> 2910.86] what happens is once every night at exactly the exact time that they require, you log into +[2910.86 --> 2916.56] your PC and you do the course that they tell you to do and you learn whatever it is that +[2916.56 --> 2917.12] they dictate. +[2917.24 --> 2917.84] No, I'm just kidding. +[2917.92 --> 2919.04] It's actually the opposite of that. +[2919.36 --> 2924.28] So the idea is that memberships are extremely reasonably priced and you learn whatever you +[2924.28 --> 2925.50] want at your own pace. +[2925.50 --> 2928.42] They've got stuff that's more geared towards hobbyists. +[2928.54 --> 2932.94] They've got stuff that's geared towards even potentially getting a job, like starting up +[2932.94 --> 2937.98] a new career, whether it's photography or video editing or programming. +[2939.20 --> 2945.52] And I get so much positive feedback from our viewers and our subscribers who are using +[2945.52 --> 2948.82] lynda.com and are like, holy crap, Linus, I can't believe I never heard of this. +[2948.98 --> 2952.64] They teach things so much better than you because they have actual industry experts that do their +[2952.64 --> 2952.98] videos. +[2952.98 --> 2957.70] It's not how people usually say it, but that's kind of what I read into it. +[2958.94 --> 2961.60] But the point is they're adding new courses all the time. +[2961.68 --> 2962.54] It's reasonably priced. +[2962.70 --> 2965.86] And if you don't like it, there's a risk-free seven day trial. +[2966.02 --> 2967.94] All you have to do is sign up for the trial. +[2968.06 --> 2969.66] And then if you hate it, then don't use it anymore. +[2969.82 --> 2973.66] And if you like it, then use it whatever you want and learn whatever you want because it's +[2973.66 --> 2979.16] a pretty darn cool service that can legitimately turn into job skills that you actually use +[2979.16 --> 2979.90] every day. +[2980.12 --> 2981.20] Like last night. +[2981.38 --> 2983.58] Three people here use their lynda skills. +[2984.12 --> 2984.40] All right. +[2985.06 --> 2988.28] So that's pretty much it for our sponsor spots for the day. +[2988.42 --> 2990.74] Let's go ahead and move into our next topic, shall we? +[2990.80 --> 2991.14] PayPal. +[2991.38 --> 2991.54] PayPal. +[2991.54 --> 2991.98] PayPal. +[2991.98 --> 2994.66] I was like Apple pay. +[2994.86 --> 2995.50] It's like, what? +[2995.68 --> 2998.46] Didn't we talk about last week about how PayPal hasn't really done anything? +[2998.62 --> 2998.84] Yeah. +[2999.06 --> 2999.42] Yeah. +[2999.54 --> 3001.08] And like they've tried to do stuff. +[3001.26 --> 3006.60] But I mean, like why did the incumbents sit around and wait for Apple to unify everything? +[3006.80 --> 3008.20] And like, where are the innovations? +[3008.58 --> 3009.90] This is an innovation. +[3010.36 --> 3011.80] This I'm really excited about. +[3011.80 --> 3018.06] PayPal has officially launched their pay after delivery service, which don't think of it +[3018.06 --> 3022.70] as like, oh, you know, free stuff that I don't have to pay for or like. +[3022.84 --> 3023.74] You still definitely have to pay. +[3023.74 --> 3023.90] Yeah. +[3023.94 --> 3025.50] You still definitely have to pay for it. +[3025.58 --> 3028.08] But the point is trust. +[3028.28 --> 3033.70] So it allows users to pay for their goods up to 14 days after they choose to make a purchase. +[3033.86 --> 3036.92] So if you buy from someone, I'd love to say someone like Amazon. +[3037.06 --> 3038.36] Unfortunately, they don't take PayPal. +[3038.46 --> 3039.00] Not at all. +[3039.00 --> 3043.32] But if you buy from someone else online, then basically it arrives. +[3043.38 --> 3048.62] You kind of go like, yes, this appears to be an actual mobile communication device. +[3048.72 --> 3048.94] Okay. +[3048.94 --> 3049.44] It's all good. +[3049.50 --> 3053.26] So the money doesn't come out of your account until you're satisfied that you've actually +[3053.26 --> 3054.78] received the device that you did. +[3055.00 --> 3056.08] How cool is that? +[3056.14 --> 3056.90] That's freaking awesome. +[3057.00 --> 3058.68] And that's just the tip of the iceberg. +[3059.04 --> 3061.48] So they actually partnered with Burger King. +[3061.84 --> 3063.56] And this, this I love. +[3063.86 --> 3064.04] Yeah. +[3064.08 --> 3064.72] Oh God. +[3065.06 --> 3068.02] So you can order your food ahead of time. +[3068.02 --> 3070.94] So, so this doesn't have to be like 14 days after the fact. +[3071.00 --> 3072.30] This could be like 20 minutes. +[3072.40 --> 3075.16] Be like, yo dog, I'm gonna stop by the Burger King. +[3075.26 --> 3076.12] Have my order ready. +[3076.30 --> 3078.34] And the payment drops out of your account. +[3078.42 --> 3080.54] Like it's, it's like preauthorized and prepaid. +[3080.84 --> 3082.38] And you just go pick up your food. +[3082.64 --> 3085.22] Fast food just got faster. +[3085.66 --> 3086.10] America. +[3087.62 --> 3088.10] America. +[3088.10 --> 3088.22] America. +[3089.78 --> 3090.88] I'm in North America. +[3090.88 --> 3093.98] So I consider myself part of America when I make fun of. +[3094.00 --> 3095.26] But that probably won't come to us. +[3095.84 --> 3096.50] No, probably not. +[3096.84 --> 3101.22] Just like we're not getting Apple Pay or Google Wallet or this. +[3101.62 --> 3102.36] Or anything cool. +[3103.80 --> 3104.20] Yeah. +[3104.20 --> 3106.54] I kind of like, I felt like really sucky. +[3106.62 --> 3110.40] Cause we're doing as fast as possible over on the TechWiki channel about Apple Pay. +[3110.50 --> 3112.98] Because I think there's a lot of confusion out there about it. +[3113.50 --> 3115.90] And so I just like, I kind of run through the basics. +[3116.16 --> 3120.08] And then at the end, I was just kind of tempted to say, like, like get a little Canadian flag +[3120.08 --> 3120.38] or something. +[3120.46 --> 3123.22] Be like, but none of this matters to me. +[3123.32 --> 3125.96] Cause Apple Pay is like, it's only speculation right now. +[3126.04 --> 3127.20] Apple won't comment on it. +[3127.20 --> 3131.12] But the speculation is that it's like a year plus out for sure. +[3131.38 --> 3131.94] Oh my goodness. +[3132.00 --> 3135.74] Even though the technology, it's like the actual, the phone. +[3135.86 --> 3138.18] And this is not an Apple phone, but I hope you guys get my point. +[3138.44 --> 3141.82] The NFC chip is not revolutionary. +[3142.46 --> 3142.86] No. +[3143.38 --> 3143.54] No. +[3143.72 --> 3144.20] At all. +[3144.56 --> 3149.68] And, and, and that's where a lot of the confusion about Apple Pay versus Google Wallet comes from. +[3149.72 --> 3153.50] Where people kind of go, oh, well, why is Apple getting so much attention and support for this? +[3153.52 --> 3154.76] It's the same thing as Google Wallet. +[3154.76 --> 3155.92] It's not. +[3155.92 --> 3159.34] But on the back end, it is not the same thing. +[3159.70 --> 3163.52] So Apple needs to build those relationships with the financial institutions, which are +[3163.52 --> 3168.22] very different in Canada from, from the U.S. in order to actually enable it and provide +[3168.22 --> 3168.78] the service here. +[3169.02 --> 3169.28] So, yeah. +[3170.02 --> 3170.66] So there you go. +[3171.80 --> 3175.14] I'm excited about this PayPal thing five years from now. +[3175.38 --> 3177.14] Five, yeah, whatever it actually happens. +[3177.16 --> 3180.06] Speaking of five years from now, originally posted by TechDreamer. +[3180.56 --> 3184.26] By the way, TechDreamer was also the one for the, the PayPal one. +[3184.26 --> 3186.28] And it was Top War Gamer for the HP stream one. +[3186.46 --> 3188.32] We've got so much amazing news this week. +[3188.40 --> 3189.46] This week's actually quite good. +[3189.56 --> 3190.84] Go, go, go with this one. +[3190.86 --> 3190.88] Okay. +[3190.88 --> 3191.80] So Oculus news. +[3191.94 --> 3196.04] Although, um, not, also not hugely Oculus news at the same time. +[3196.08 --> 3196.18] No. +[3196.18 --> 3199.72] A lot of people are freaking out about this because he's like, it's months away, not years. +[3199.86 --> 3200.70] Although the speculation. +[3200.70 --> 3202.94] I could still need 11 months or 15 months. +[3203.06 --> 3203.24] Yeah. +[3203.34 --> 3206.24] The speculation for a long time has been late 2015. +[3206.98 --> 3212.60] So this isn't actually, like, I was like, yeah, because this is more of a confirmation. +[3212.70 --> 3213.00] Okay. +[3213.32 --> 3215.36] Which is great because I'm not super into rumors. +[3215.36 --> 3220.60] So this is actually coming from him, which is awesome. +[3220.72 --> 3222.34] Because now we know it's coming then. +[3222.56 --> 3229.32] But I think when the CEO says it's months away, I think the implication is not 11.9 months. +[3229.56 --> 3229.84] No. +[3230.04 --> 3233.44] I think the implication is, because when you say months. +[3233.46 --> 3235.40] Well, he says, he says many months, I think. +[3235.58 --> 3235.78] Yeah. +[3235.88 --> 3238.08] It's months, not years away, but many months. +[3238.72 --> 3240.06] So he does mean quite a few. +[3240.16 --> 3243.32] I still think it'll be, like, Q3, probably Q4 2015. +[3244.48 --> 3246.16] But yeah, I'm super stoked. +[3246.26 --> 3250.12] If you haven't seen the new prototype that they've released, it looks a lot wider. +[3250.50 --> 3254.46] It looks like they've probably messed with the aspect ratio a little bit, which could be really cool. +[3256.08 --> 3262.40] They're still talking about how keyboard and keyboards, mice, game pads are all not really up to the job. +[3262.40 --> 3265.62] And neither is, like, super basic gesture control. +[3265.62 --> 3271.60] He says they're urging larger companies not to rush their products out and to try and just make the best solution they can. +[3271.74 --> 3278.34] And then release it because they don't want to, like, work the waters with crappy products, essentially. +[3278.60 --> 3278.72] Yes. +[3278.90 --> 3281.74] They don't want to spoil the awesomeness that is VR right now. +[3281.92 --> 3285.24] It has killed technologies in the past. +[3285.26 --> 3286.82] It's killed VR in the past. +[3286.94 --> 3287.22] Yep. +[3287.58 --> 3288.42] It has. +[3288.94 --> 3290.22] More than once, actually. +[3290.22 --> 3290.58] Yeah. +[3290.58 --> 3298.74] So they're trying to make sure that other companies don't ruin it for all of the companies that are trying to do it properly. +[3298.86 --> 3303.50] Not just Oculus, but all the companies that are trying to take their time and properly release these products. +[3303.54 --> 3308.22] Because they are extremely new and people are going to potentially get extremely motion sick. +[3308.42 --> 3311.60] We all saw Lou when we were trying out the roller coaster stuff. +[3311.70 --> 3311.84] Yep. +[3311.84 --> 3314.10] When he tried the last one, he was like, no, I'm done. +[3314.20 --> 3314.98] Almost immediately. +[3315.44 --> 3316.24] He couldn't handle it. +[3316.62 --> 3318.48] And it's going to hit people randomly. +[3318.72 --> 3320.80] Certain people will feel it a lot more than others. +[3320.98 --> 3323.62] And it's not going to be like, oh, my big tough dudes, I don't get motion sickness. +[3323.80 --> 3325.32] Like, that's not really how it's going to work. +[3325.44 --> 3327.86] And it'll be different things that hit different people. +[3327.86 --> 3329.78] Like, I was able to handle the rides. +[3330.20 --> 3347.78] But in Kokiri Forest, when I fell off of a cliff, the way that the camera was controlled by my fingers, but also by my head, it felt like someone took my stomach and wrung it out like a dishcloth all of a sudden. +[3348.34 --> 3354.36] And it took a while of like, oh, wow, I better not touch that thumbstick to have it settle down again. +[3354.50 --> 3355.52] So it's real. +[3355.66 --> 3356.42] It's a real thing. +[3356.42 --> 3360.68] It's real, like you just definitely said, it totally affects people differently. +[3361.54 --> 3366.60] Some people can, like, be standing up facing backwards during a roller coaster ride and not care. +[3366.94 --> 3370.34] And then go through something like you did and be like, holy crap, that's not okay. +[3370.60 --> 3370.68] Yeah. +[3371.20 --> 3373.10] So, yeah, we need to be careful. +[3373.28 --> 3374.84] But it's coming soon, which is really cool. +[3374.98 --> 3376.66] I've been playing a little bit of X-Wing lately. +[3377.04 --> 3378.14] Because I was just like... +[3378.14 --> 3378.82] You had your stream? +[3379.02 --> 3379.42] Holy crap. +[3379.58 --> 3380.62] Oh, oh, oh. +[3381.14 --> 3381.98] Terrible story. +[3382.44 --> 3384.38] My Top Gun joystick. +[3384.82 --> 3385.16] Oh, no. +[3385.16 --> 3386.26] Last night? +[3386.62 --> 3386.96] Oh, no. +[3387.04 --> 3390.18] I was like, I was like, I was kind of too excited. +[3390.44 --> 3391.64] And I had my son on my lap. +[3391.64 --> 3391.88] Oh, no. +[3392.08 --> 3393.68] So like, I was kind of awkward. +[3393.86 --> 3395.12] And I was like, I was going around. +[3395.26 --> 3396.90] I was dogfighting with a TIE fighter. +[3397.02 --> 3398.30] And I was like, pew, pew, pew, snap. +[3400.42 --> 3400.82] Oh. +[3401.18 --> 3403.94] My trigger button snapped inside the housing. +[3403.94 --> 3405.66] It's a clean break. +[3405.66 --> 3407.06] It sounds like it might be repairable. +[3407.20 --> 3408.00] It's a clean break. +[3408.08 --> 3408.32] Okay. +[3408.32 --> 3412.06] And I think that the solution is going to be one of two things or both. +[3412.18 --> 3413.70] So maybe as a temporary fix. +[3413.80 --> 3413.98] Okay. +[3414.14 --> 3416.90] What I can do is, because super glue never works for something like that. +[3417.30 --> 3421.38] But what you can do, what I've actually had a lot of success with is a thin needle and +[3421.38 --> 3423.60] heat it up with a blowtorch, red hot. +[3423.86 --> 3425.26] You position it in the right place. +[3425.36 --> 3426.02] You glue it. +[3426.02 --> 3426.34] To melt them together. +[3426.34 --> 3430.48] And then you actually stab through the break from different angles. +[3430.74 --> 3434.32] And then you kind of melt around the outside and smooth it. +[3434.78 --> 3434.84] Yeah. +[3434.90 --> 3438.30] I have found that that has held up almost as well as the original strength. +[3438.82 --> 3439.16] Welding. +[3439.44 --> 3439.70] Yeah. +[3440.04 --> 3442.44] So like, kind of like plastic welding. +[3442.66 --> 3442.76] Yeah. +[3442.90 --> 3443.82] So I'm going to try that. +[3443.90 --> 3445.72] And then if that doesn't work, then I'll... +[3445.72 --> 3448.26] Someone in Twitch is going to be like, oh my God, that's not welding at all. +[3448.38 --> 3448.82] But like... +[3448.82 --> 3449.16] We know. +[3449.32 --> 3449.46] Yeah. +[3449.54 --> 3451.22] So then I'll figure out a way to 3D print one. +[3451.36 --> 3451.56] Yeah. +[3451.82 --> 3453.96] And then that'll make my Top Gun joystick even cooler. +[3454.08 --> 3456.32] Because I can get like a bright orange or like... +[3456.34 --> 3459.34] Bright pink trigger on it. +[3459.46 --> 3459.94] That would be sick. +[3460.06 --> 3461.28] I was so sad. +[3461.36 --> 3462.02] Because I was like playing with my... +[3462.02 --> 3462.74] I thought you were going to... +[3462.74 --> 3466.08] Telling me that story, I thought you were going to like snap it off the base or something. +[3466.30 --> 3466.40] No. +[3466.40 --> 3467.72] I was like, oh my God. +[3467.72 --> 3471.94] No, but I was upset because I was playing with my son and he was enjoying blowing up +[3471.94 --> 3472.64] the bad guys. +[3472.80 --> 3472.90] Yeah. +[3473.08 --> 3473.64] He's... +[3473.64 --> 3474.48] He hasn't... +[3474.48 --> 3477.62] This is only the second time he's actually seen a game being played. +[3477.78 --> 3481.80] Like I don't really do the whole lots of screen time with him thing. +[3481.86 --> 3482.76] I don't really believe in it. +[3482.82 --> 3485.46] I think little kids should spend most of their time in reality. +[3486.34 --> 3489.92] But he was really enjoying it. +[3490.30 --> 3491.10] And so we had... +[3491.10 --> 3494.44] I never game with speakers anymore because usually he's sleeping. +[3494.56 --> 3498.50] So we had the speakers on so he could actually hear the voice chatter over the radio and like +[3498.50 --> 3499.44] pew pew pew pew pew pew pew. +[3499.64 --> 3499.84] Yeah. +[3499.84 --> 3503.52] And he loves the Star Wars movies. +[3503.96 --> 3505.22] He's only seen them once. +[3505.38 --> 3507.46] Again, not a ton of screen time with him. +[3507.54 --> 3510.64] But he had a Darth Vader plush from when he was very little. +[3510.76 --> 3512.52] And I have the most adorable videos. +[3512.98 --> 3515.82] Because we used to play this game with him when he was really quite young. +[3515.82 --> 3520.70] where I would lift him up and I would say, say goodnight monkey. +[3521.08 --> 3523.00] And he had like a vinyl monkey sticker on his wall. +[3523.36 --> 3524.82] And say, say goodnight giraffe. +[3525.18 --> 3526.24] And there's like a giraffe sticker. +[3526.78 --> 3527.90] And he would like say... +[3527.90 --> 3530.16] And so he'd be all happy and he'd be like, yeah, yeah. +[3530.34 --> 3532.02] And so, you know, say goodnight, goodnight. +[3532.28 --> 3535.16] And then I'd say, say goodnight Darth Vader. +[3535.34 --> 3537.52] And he would squirm and try to get away from him. +[3537.52 --> 3539.26] Because he had like a voice thing. +[3539.52 --> 3539.94] Like... +[3539.94 --> 3541.68] Yeah, yeah. +[3541.88 --> 3543.10] And so I played it a couple times. +[3543.28 --> 3552.04] And it's amazing how the psychological fear that goes into something like a costume design +[3552.04 --> 3558.54] goes so much deeper than that character did bad things and is therefore scary. +[3558.80 --> 3560.98] That mask is frightening. +[3561.32 --> 3562.72] Even without the voice. +[3562.72 --> 3568.18] And even without the actions of blowing up the planet Alderaan and forcing Leia to watch. +[3568.46 --> 3569.68] Like, even without that. +[3569.84 --> 3570.52] It's terrifying. +[3570.88 --> 3573.36] So he didn't like Darth Vader for a long time. +[3573.38 --> 3575.14] And I would do it to him all the time because I thought it was hilarious. +[3575.44 --> 3578.30] So every night before bed, it'd be like, say goodnight monkey. +[3579.16 --> 3579.96] Say goodnight Darth Vader. +[3580.10 --> 3580.30] No. +[3580.62 --> 3580.82] No. +[3581.18 --> 3581.82] No Darth Vader. +[3582.18 --> 3583.22] No Darth Vader. +[3584.00 --> 3587.88] And I forget where I was going with this. +[3588.04 --> 3588.48] Right. +[3588.48 --> 3593.26] So he really liked the Star Wars-y-ness of it as well. +[3593.42 --> 3594.24] So that's... +[3594.24 --> 3596.68] This became a long rambly story. +[3597.42 --> 3598.36] I liked it. +[3598.44 --> 3599.20] I thought that was cool. +[3599.30 --> 3599.74] Intel. +[3600.42 --> 3601.88] We're finally getting some details. +[3602.02 --> 3610.66] And this was posted by TechFanboy about the upcoming LGA 1151 and Z170 chipset. +[3610.68 --> 3611.16] 170, yeah. +[3611.40 --> 3611.68] Really? +[3611.80 --> 3612.16] 170? +[3612.32 --> 3614.30] It's like, this is what Intel does when they run out of numbers. +[3614.30 --> 3614.40] A whole bunch. +[3616.20 --> 3617.06] Like, okay. +[3617.06 --> 3625.18] And LGA 1151, they're going to run out of numbers between 1,150 and 1,159. +[3625.70 --> 3627.66] I was pretty tired when I read this. +[3627.86 --> 3629.42] And I saw 1151. +[3629.90 --> 3633.96] And all I could think of was, like, they should have had this giant, ridiculous press conference. +[3634.28 --> 3637.40] And then just been, like, slowly put the letters on screen. +[3637.54 --> 3638.04] Like, L. +[3638.52 --> 3639.02] G. +[3639.62 --> 3640.06] A. +[3640.40 --> 3641.36] And then 11. +[3641.54 --> 3643.50] And have it, like, fairly rhythmically. +[3643.50 --> 3644.38] And then 1150. +[3644.56 --> 3645.86] And then, like, a huge delay. +[3645.86 --> 3647.66] One. +[3647.94 --> 3649.06] And then, like, fireworks. +[3649.08 --> 3650.12] Like, crazy pyrotechnics. +[3650.12 --> 3650.82] Like, drop the base. +[3652.60 --> 3653.80] Dubstep pyrotechnics. +[3653.88 --> 3655.62] Like, oh my god, it's a one. +[3656.70 --> 3658.02] That's all I could think of. +[3658.06 --> 3658.78] So now we've had... +[3658.78 --> 3659.38] That's how that should have been done. +[3659.42 --> 3660.84] Now there's officially no pattern. +[3661.06 --> 3663.98] Intel is officially as good at naming things as Microsoft. +[3664.24 --> 3668.20] Because we've got 1156, 1155, 1150, and 1151. +[3668.20 --> 3671.32] So we were going backwards, and then a lot backwards, and then a little bit forward. +[3673.46 --> 3673.82] Ridiculous. +[3674.08 --> 3677.44] So, to be clear, guys, that's not because it's the number of the socket. +[3677.56 --> 3678.94] It's the number of pins in the socket. +[3678.94 --> 3679.14] Yeah. +[3679.14 --> 3680.62] So I get it. +[3680.62 --> 3688.36] But it's going to support both DDR4 and DDR3 memory, which is pretty cool, but not at the same time. +[3688.42 --> 3689.26] You'll have to choose. +[3690.08 --> 3692.92] And, I mean, guys, basically it's going to come down to... +[3692.92 --> 3694.56] This is like a stepping stone one. +[3694.84 --> 3695.00] Yeah. +[3695.00 --> 3698.46] Just like how the 9... +[3698.46 --> 3704.16] I want to say 925 chipset supported both DDR1 and DDR2. +[3704.42 --> 3705.66] That's what we're looking at again. +[3705.76 --> 3708.20] There's not going to be a big performance difference between them. +[3708.26 --> 3711.40] It's going to be buy whatever's cheaper at the time that you're buying whatever it is you're buying. +[3712.30 --> 3721.42] The new chipset supports single by 16, dual by 8X, or a single 8X and two 4X PCI Express 3.0 slots. +[3721.42 --> 3728.36] I really hope that NVIDIA at some point revises their SLI guidelines so that we can have triple SLI on 8, 4, and 4. +[3728.54 --> 3736.34] But I also kind of understand why, especially if what I suspect they're doing is doing more communication over the P-Stat Express bus is actually happening. +[3736.62 --> 3736.66] Yeah. +[3737.06 --> 3739.92] Supports two memory channels with two modules each. +[3740.60 --> 3745.12] Six SATA 3, six gigabit per second ports and 20 lanes for PCI-E total. +[3745.12 --> 3751.94] We'll support a maximum of three SATA Express X2 ports and either four N.2 or two SATA Express. +[3752.52 --> 3758.88] Actually, not 100% sure if those are completely transcribed correctly, but the original article is from KitGuru.net. +[3758.94 --> 3760.16] So you guys can check it out over there. +[3760.32 --> 3764.88] And the boards will support up to 14 USB ports, 10 of which can be Intel USB 3.0 ports. +[3764.88 --> 3768.84] But as of now, USB 3.1 is unsupported. +[3769.98 --> 3770.54] Dun-dun-dun. +[3770.78 --> 3773.06] So that's the new 10 gigabit per second USB. +[3775.14 --> 3776.08] I would, yeah. +[3776.20 --> 3777.12] Not super interested. +[3777.68 --> 3778.82] In USB 3.1? +[3779.02 --> 3779.30] No. +[3779.60 --> 3779.80] Oh. +[3781.08 --> 3782.56] Largely because it doesn't have that. +[3782.56 --> 3788.00] Yeah, that and these are going to be for Broadwell processors, which are, we have another article. +[3788.44 --> 3788.60] Yeah. +[3788.60 --> 3789.68] I'm going to scroll down to it. +[3790.04 --> 3794.66] But upcoming Broadwell is rumored to be 3% faster than Haswell clock for clock. +[3794.84 --> 3800.66] So unless Intel has found a way to squeeze higher clock speeds out of their chips for the first time in a lot of generations, +[3801.16 --> 3805.44] we're not going to see like a massive paradigm shifting performance improvement. +[3805.66 --> 3805.96] Nope. +[3805.96 --> 3813.28] So don't throw away your LGA 1150 PC just yet. +[3813.44 --> 3813.74] Yeah. +[3814.28 --> 3815.14] Not so much. +[3816.98 --> 3820.34] Dawngate was cancelled and I don't know how many people cared, but you can get your money back. +[3820.44 --> 3822.44] So if you bought into Dawngate, go get your money back. +[3822.44 --> 3823.48] Well, I think that's cool. +[3823.64 --> 3824.90] I think the fact that they're just... +[3824.90 --> 3825.96] You think it's cool that they cancelled it? +[3826.06 --> 3828.10] I think it's cool that they're giving everyone's money back. +[3828.10 --> 3832.22] And I think it's cool that they had the balls to cancel something instead of just bringing it to market, +[3832.48 --> 3834.24] getting a bunch of people to buy it, and then abandoning it. +[3834.46 --> 3834.56] Yeah. +[3834.56 --> 3836.76] I think that this is... +[3836.76 --> 3837.30] And they're letting it... +[3837.30 --> 3839.66] One thing that's also cool, if we're going to jump on the cool screen... +[3839.66 --> 3840.66] So this is EA, to be clear. +[3840.80 --> 3840.96] Yeah. +[3841.02 --> 3845.00] So Dawngate was an EA, sort of League of Legends style MOBA. +[3845.60 --> 3847.98] Is that they're letting it continue to operate for 90 days? +[3848.20 --> 3848.38] Yep. +[3848.56 --> 3851.80] So people that did like it can kind of wean themselves off, which is actually kind of cool. +[3852.12 --> 3854.18] So it's been in beta for 18 months. +[3854.64 --> 3856.52] And basically what they had to say was, +[3856.60 --> 3859.44] well, we built a game that wasn't just a clone of existing MOBAs, +[3859.52 --> 3862.54] but that tried to push things forward and it didn't work. +[3862.54 --> 3865.28] So the project's off. +[3865.46 --> 3865.86] It's done. +[3866.86 --> 3870.96] Everyone gets a refund and we're not going to try and turn this into something that it's not. +[3871.06 --> 3873.24] And I say, good job, EA. +[3873.46 --> 3873.64] Yeah. +[3873.76 --> 3875.56] There's no actual negative news here. +[3875.80 --> 3876.10] Yeah. +[3876.22 --> 3877.12] Like, how is... +[3877.12 --> 3877.44] How is... +[3877.44 --> 3878.76] Unless you really liked Dawngate. +[3879.50 --> 3879.86] Yeah. +[3880.24 --> 3881.26] And like, well, okay. +[3881.32 --> 3883.38] There's going to be people that really liked Dawngate. +[3883.48 --> 3886.32] Every single time that a game gets closed, there's people that get screwed over. +[3886.50 --> 3886.82] Yeah. +[3886.82 --> 3888.16] And that really sucks. +[3888.16 --> 3889.98] But at least they don't get screwed out of any money. +[3890.74 --> 3892.12] Yes, they don't get screwed out of any money. +[3892.34 --> 3896.38] And they don't get this like abandoned, abandoned, empty experience, +[3896.56 --> 3898.18] which the game probably would have turned into, +[3898.44 --> 3901.56] and then just been depressed and had bad memories. +[3901.76 --> 3903.30] Now they're like, I liked that game. +[3903.30 --> 3904.60] And it sucks that it didn't become a thing. +[3904.70 --> 3904.80] Yeah. +[3904.82 --> 3905.44] That was fun. +[3905.52 --> 3906.04] That was cool. +[3906.28 --> 3911.04] I mean, I think the only thing EA could do to make this even cooler, +[3911.04 --> 3915.22] and for them to be like, wow, good guy EA, and we would actually... +[3915.22 --> 3916.24] Okay, we would have... +[3916.24 --> 3918.18] If they gave them like some credit or something? +[3918.36 --> 3919.92] No, what I would want them to do... +[3919.92 --> 3920.88] Actually, that would be... +[3920.88 --> 3921.74] Okay, that would work. +[3921.74 --> 3922.88] They like gave them a game on the origin store or something? +[3922.88 --> 3924.16] Some credit in the origin store. +[3924.24 --> 3924.34] Yeah. +[3924.40 --> 3925.78] Here's five bucks off a new game. +[3925.86 --> 3926.86] Go enjoy something else. +[3926.98 --> 3927.86] Hey, we're sorry about this. +[3927.92 --> 3928.10] Yeah. +[3928.32 --> 3929.30] That would be super cool. +[3929.62 --> 3935.36] Another super cool thing would be if they turned the game over to someone else. +[3935.44 --> 3935.52] Oh. +[3935.52 --> 3937.80] Turned the game over to the community and went, look, okay. +[3937.92 --> 3938.84] That would be awesome. +[3938.84 --> 3942.22] We're not going to support it anymore, but you know what? +[3942.24 --> 3944.36] If you guys really want to run with this, then go for it. +[3944.36 --> 3945.80] Go with like the Netscape thing. +[3946.18 --> 3948.40] Where they're like, we're kind of closing off, but you can have it, +[3948.44 --> 3950.64] and then Firefox jumps on the train and carries it forward. +[3950.96 --> 3952.10] Or whatever it is. +[3952.10 --> 3952.88] Or whatever would ever happen. +[3952.88 --> 3954.34] That would actually be super awesome. +[3954.62 --> 3954.78] Yeah. +[3954.90 --> 3956.54] I don't think they will, but that would be super awesome. +[3956.64 --> 3959.02] Because I think that for like a... +[3959.02 --> 3963.16] Even for the open source community, to try to develop a game from Square One +[3963.16 --> 3964.76] is a bit of an ambitious project. +[3964.76 --> 3968.06] And if they could take this even just as a framework and nuke a lot of it +[3968.06 --> 3970.36] and recreate things, that would be a lot easier. +[3970.88 --> 3971.06] Yeah. +[3971.14 --> 3973.42] That would be a very, very, very cool thing. +[3973.58 --> 3978.16] In this world of microtransaction-y, actually massive companies +[3978.16 --> 3980.62] that have this image of like, you know, good guy Riot. +[3980.74 --> 3984.44] But these are like big companies with a lot of money that like... +[3984.44 --> 3986.76] It's funny because people kind of go, +[3986.76 --> 3991.88] Oh, like Apple, like big company, therefore like bad or whatever. +[3992.02 --> 3996.32] But these gaming companies are also like big, super money-driven companies. +[3996.42 --> 3997.14] So don't kid yourself. +[3997.56 --> 3998.32] I mean, I would think... +[3998.32 --> 4001.96] I think it would be really cool for just a community-driven project +[4001.96 --> 4003.28] to come in and challenge something like that. +[4003.28 --> 4005.52] I really don't think it'll happen, but it would be awesome. +[4005.54 --> 4006.78] Then a bunch of money would get involved, +[4006.92 --> 4008.16] and some people would rise to the top, +[4008.20 --> 4008.92] and they'd make a bunch of money. +[4008.96 --> 4010.24] It would turn into the same thing all over again. +[4010.26 --> 4011.20] I mean, it's just one of those things. +[4011.28 --> 4012.10] Money is what it is. +[4012.10 --> 4014.58] I feel like right now Ubisoft and EA are really close to each other, +[4014.80 --> 4017.46] and Ubisoft is like digging really ferociously +[4017.46 --> 4020.50] and throwing the dirt over into EA's hole and filling it up. +[4024.18 --> 4026.68] The word hole can never escape an awkward cause. +[4026.82 --> 4027.76] I didn't even mean that. +[4027.86 --> 4030.62] But like EA is not doing horrible things. +[4030.88 --> 4031.20] I know. +[4031.40 --> 4032.04] It's amazing. +[4032.70 --> 4033.76] It's like they care. +[4033.86 --> 4036.10] Like they had that big patch for Battlefield 4. +[4036.26 --> 4038.72] They gave away some free stuff to people using Sims. +[4038.72 --> 4044.06] They aren't pulling their games out of Steam in the UK, +[4044.36 --> 4047.36] with the rumor being that they're going to pull their games out of Steam entirely. +[4047.62 --> 4048.48] No, I think they did. +[4048.48 --> 4049.26] Their Christmas launch games. +[4049.36 --> 4049.84] Did they already? +[4049.96 --> 4052.24] I'm pretty sure this is like a... +[4052.24 --> 4053.52] It's out of Steam. +[4053.70 --> 4055.82] Or at least it's out of Steam in UK and I believe US. +[4057.06 --> 4062.12] I think the outrage for this should have been at the fact +[4062.12 --> 4065.98] that if you bought one of their games on Steam already, +[4065.98 --> 4069.36] it was just giving it to you in Uplay and it just launched Uplay. +[4069.58 --> 4071.34] I think that's where the rage should have been. +[4071.54 --> 4074.00] Because this honestly doesn't really change anything. +[4074.34 --> 4074.90] Yeah, you're right. +[4075.02 --> 4078.70] You're going from not being able to buy it in Steam. +[4079.36 --> 4081.72] I mean, you're going from being able to buy it in Steam, +[4081.80 --> 4084.60] but realistically just having the game on your Uplay account +[4084.60 --> 4087.20] and having to run Uplay and having to launch the game out of Uplay +[4087.20 --> 4089.00] and dealing with all the crap that that has +[4089.00 --> 4092.40] to just not being able to buy it on Steam +[4092.40 --> 4095.56] and having the entire rest of the experience be exactly the same. +[4095.88 --> 4098.72] So I think the rage should have already happened +[4098.72 --> 4102.32] and it should have been from the forcible use of Uplay +[4102.32 --> 4106.16] and this should have just been piled on top of that +[4106.16 --> 4107.60] because that was super annoying. +[4108.14 --> 4109.76] Because the conversation that we had... +[4109.76 --> 4110.92] Double DRM is lame. +[4111.52 --> 4111.74] Yes. +[4111.74 --> 4112.00] And bad. +[4112.14 --> 4112.84] It is really lame. +[4112.88 --> 4114.50] It's like Games for Windows Live. +[4114.50 --> 4116.90] That whole stupid thing with... +[4116.90 --> 4118.92] Remember Batman Arkham Asylum? +[4119.62 --> 4121.02] How unless you... +[4121.02 --> 4122.64] Like how you could get stuck +[4122.64 --> 4124.72] and it never got patched to my knowledge +[4124.72 --> 4127.84] until they finally just got rid of Games for Windows Live entirely. +[4128.08 --> 4130.00] But you could get stuck in a loop +[4130.00 --> 4132.30] where you would sign into Games for Windows Live +[4132.30 --> 4133.96] and it would reboot the game +[4133.96 --> 4135.94] and unless you did something, +[4136.30 --> 4137.70] it would make you sign in again +[4137.70 --> 4138.76] and reboot the game again +[4138.76 --> 4140.06] and you could do it over and over and over again +[4140.06 --> 4140.48] and never sign in. +[4140.48 --> 4142.28] I got that game from my brother for Christmas +[4142.28 --> 4144.70] and he never ended up playing it. +[4144.80 --> 4145.98] Not because he didn't want to play it +[4145.98 --> 4146.88] but because he couldn't. +[4147.48 --> 4148.62] Did he run into that problem? +[4148.70 --> 4148.88] Yeah. +[4149.36 --> 4150.62] Like it's just... +[4150.62 --> 4152.12] I forget what the solution was. +[4152.20 --> 4153.50] I haven't touched the game in a long time. +[4153.52 --> 4153.84] It's just... +[4153.84 --> 4154.80] It was so much work +[4154.80 --> 4155.90] and eventually he's just like, +[4155.98 --> 4156.16] whatever. +[4156.88 --> 4158.80] I don't have that much time to sit down and play games +[4158.80 --> 4160.10] because he worked a lot at the time. +[4160.40 --> 4161.06] Well, he still does. +[4161.64 --> 4162.30] So he's like, +[4162.34 --> 4163.78] I'll just play something else. +[4164.02 --> 4164.22] Alright. +[4164.68 --> 4167.06] So there were rumors floating around +[4167.06 --> 4169.64] that Zalman filed for bankruptcy. +[4169.64 --> 4174.22] However, they have sort of spoken up now +[4174.22 --> 4175.08] and there's going to be +[4175.08 --> 4176.20] some kind of an official statement +[4176.20 --> 4177.00] at some point here. +[4177.34 --> 4178.02] But what they're saying is, +[4178.12 --> 4178.82] well, hold on a second. +[4178.90 --> 4180.38] No, our business is fine. +[4180.92 --> 4182.54] It's the parent company, +[4183.14 --> 4183.54] Monail. +[4183.90 --> 4185.52] I used to know how to pronounce this +[4185.52 --> 4188.42] because NCIX brought in a bunch of cases +[4188.42 --> 4190.72] from them like four years ago +[4190.72 --> 4191.66] or something like that +[4191.66 --> 4193.24] and it was like a super amazing deal +[4193.24 --> 4194.12] or something. +[4194.20 --> 4194.38] Anyway. +[4194.38 --> 4197.84] So it's actually their parent company +[4197.84 --> 4203.26] that allegedly is suspected of taking loans +[4203.26 --> 4204.44] that it could not repay +[4204.44 --> 4206.80] and then fabricating export documents +[4206.80 --> 4208.20] to inflate its perceived value +[4208.20 --> 4209.70] and get approval on large loans. +[4209.82 --> 4210.60] Apparently they're in debt. +[4210.70 --> 4213.04] 2.98 billion US or something like that. +[4213.46 --> 4215.24] An unnamed employee reports +[4215.24 --> 4216.52] that the management team +[4216.52 --> 4218.92] was behind the fabrication. +[4218.92 --> 4221.00] And so yeah, +[4221.22 --> 4223.86] apparently Zalman may still come out of this okay. +[4223.94 --> 4224.20] Remember, +[4224.32 --> 4225.42] just because the parent company +[4225.42 --> 4226.16] is out of money +[4226.16 --> 4227.24] and like bad people +[4227.24 --> 4228.58] doesn't mean that Zalman +[4228.58 --> 4230.26] couldn't be acquired by someone else +[4230.26 --> 4231.56] and then continue doing business +[4231.56 --> 4232.24] the way that they're doing it. +[4232.26 --> 4233.28] So if you're a Zalman fan, +[4233.82 --> 4235.92] just kind of relax for a little bit +[4235.92 --> 4237.70] and let's see what comes of all of this. +[4237.70 --> 4240.10] Very, very possibly still be totally fine. +[4240.88 --> 4241.42] All right. +[4241.46 --> 4242.86] I really wish I could screen share +[4242.86 --> 4243.76] for this next one. +[4243.94 --> 4244.82] Amazon Echo, +[4245.30 --> 4247.30] the like least useful thing +[4247.30 --> 4249.32] that I've talked about today. +[4250.42 --> 4252.68] So my comment was that +[4252.68 --> 4253.78] it's for people that, +[4254.80 --> 4255.58] what is that? +[4255.68 --> 4256.50] My comment is that +[4256.50 --> 4257.94] it's for people that don't have +[4257.94 --> 4259.04] like an old phone +[4259.04 --> 4260.40] that they can put on a speaker dock +[4260.40 --> 4262.10] and leave there forever. +[4262.28 --> 4263.62] And your comment was. +[4265.34 --> 4266.48] Oh, my comment was that +[4266.48 --> 4268.08] it's for people who don't have a phone. +[4268.08 --> 4268.64] At all. +[4268.84 --> 4269.16] At all. +[4269.62 --> 4271.06] So basically, +[4271.76 --> 4275.70] it's like it's Google Now or Siri, +[4275.70 --> 4277.14] except it's a device +[4277.14 --> 4278.28] that sits on your desk +[4278.28 --> 4279.38] and plugs into the wall +[4279.38 --> 4280.32] instead of just being +[4280.32 --> 4281.48] in your pocket all the time. +[4281.54 --> 4282.16] You don't move it around. +[4283.16 --> 4284.94] It's like it's not even battery powered. +[4285.22 --> 4286.66] So that's why I was thinking +[4286.66 --> 4287.84] like if you had an old phone +[4287.84 --> 4288.64] and a speaker dock, +[4288.76 --> 4290.16] you just create this thing. +[4290.62 --> 4291.56] So the speaker dock +[4291.56 --> 4293.00] is because the built-in speakers +[4293.00 --> 4294.06] on the phone are probably crap +[4294.06 --> 4295.38] and this is probably better than it. +[4295.62 --> 4295.74] Yeah. +[4295.74 --> 4296.46] If you had a speaker dock, +[4296.54 --> 4297.74] you could easily get speakers +[4297.74 --> 4299.16] that are way better than this thing. +[4299.32 --> 4299.60] Okay. +[4299.70 --> 4300.58] And then just use Google Now. +[4300.58 --> 4301.62] So let's go through what it does. +[4301.70 --> 4304.04] It's $200 or $100 if you're on Prime +[4304.04 --> 4304.90] for a limited time. +[4305.14 --> 4306.00] And it's a speaker. +[4306.22 --> 4307.22] So you talk to it +[4307.22 --> 4307.86] and you say, +[4308.04 --> 4309.16] what's the keyword? +[4309.44 --> 4311.44] Like Sirax or something like that? +[4311.68 --> 4313.38] I thought it was like some chick's name. +[4313.50 --> 4313.88] Alexa. +[4314.22 --> 4314.48] Alexa. +[4314.48 --> 4314.66] Okay. +[4314.70 --> 4316.44] So you say Alexa to address it. +[4316.44 --> 4317.66] Sirax, E-fax, Alexa. +[4317.90 --> 4318.64] They're close. +[4319.12 --> 4321.60] So information, music, news, weather, +[4321.68 --> 4323.42] and more instantly +[4323.42 --> 4325.12] or at least as long as it takes +[4325.12 --> 4325.76] for you to say, +[4326.90 --> 4327.30] Alexa, +[4327.80 --> 4329.00] can you please play some +[4329.00 --> 4330.08] One Direction for me? +[4330.20 --> 4331.48] Because that's not faster +[4331.48 --> 4334.42] than just being like blah, blah, blah +[4334.42 --> 4335.10] on your phone. +[4336.70 --> 4338.16] It's controlled by your voice +[4338.16 --> 4339.26] for hands-free convenience. +[4339.62 --> 4339.96] Okay. +[4340.36 --> 4341.10] Voice recognition. +[4341.24 --> 4342.24] Here's you from across the room. +[4342.32 --> 4343.76] So far we've got three bullet points +[4343.76 --> 4344.76] that are all the same thing +[4344.76 --> 4345.72] as far as I can tell. +[4345.98 --> 4347.56] And then it's connected to the cloud +[4347.56 --> 4349.26] so it's always getting smarter. +[4349.46 --> 4351.02] Now, I do have to say this. +[4351.14 --> 4351.68] I funded, +[4351.90 --> 4352.96] I don't know if you remember this, +[4353.06 --> 4354.42] that stupid robot thing +[4354.42 --> 4355.54] that I funded on Kickstarter. +[4355.54 --> 4358.08] Um, I funded that +[4358.08 --> 4359.98] just because I wanted to get it +[4359.98 --> 4361.82] and it was going to be like a PSA +[4361.82 --> 4363.88] about how bloody stupid crowdfunding is. +[4364.00 --> 4365.18] By the time I ever get it, +[4365.28 --> 4366.92] that whole message will be dead and gone +[4366.92 --> 4367.88] just like crowdfunding. +[4368.26 --> 4371.38] Oh, oh, oh, oh, wrecked. +[4371.48 --> 4372.90] It'll be like a retro unboxing. +[4373.06 --> 4375.26] An unboxing of why crowdfunding failed. +[4376.56 --> 4378.74] Um, if they ever even deliver it. +[4378.86 --> 4380.28] It'll be like a mini documentary +[4380.28 --> 4381.18] on why crowdfunding. +[4381.30 --> 4382.36] So the reason I think +[4382.36 --> 4383.20] that one's going to fail +[4383.20 --> 4384.34] is because it's supposed to do +[4384.34 --> 4386.42] all this stuff interactively with you. +[4386.46 --> 4387.58] And they're such a small company. +[4387.72 --> 4389.16] They just don't have the resources +[4389.16 --> 4389.80] to do it properly. +[4389.94 --> 4390.70] Amazon might. +[4391.02 --> 4392.36] So the fact that it's going to continue +[4392.36 --> 4393.82] to learn as time goes on +[4393.82 --> 4394.80] might be somewhat useful. +[4395.30 --> 4397.26] But I just don't see it being +[4397.26 --> 4398.28] any more useful +[4398.28 --> 4400.02] than something like Google Now +[4400.02 --> 4400.92] or Siri, +[4401.16 --> 4402.86] which are already going to be connected +[4402.86 --> 4405.46] much, much more tightly +[4405.46 --> 4407.80] with the rest of your digital life +[4407.80 --> 4409.36] and the rest of your smart home +[4409.36 --> 4411.86] and smart car stuff +[4411.86 --> 4413.58] the way that your phone will. +[4413.58 --> 4414.68] So it's got Wi-Fi +[4414.68 --> 4415.88] and Bluetooth connectivity. +[4416.06 --> 4417.52] So it could be in theory +[4417.52 --> 4418.42] connected very well, +[4418.50 --> 4419.42] but probably won't be +[4419.42 --> 4420.24] because this is probably +[4420.24 --> 4422.02] some weird project +[4422.02 --> 4423.08] that's just going to go away. +[4423.20 --> 4424.14] I'll be floored +[4424.14 --> 4425.20] if we ever see an Echo 2. +[4426.08 --> 4427.54] And it's got seven mics. +[4427.54 --> 4428.00] Well, it depends +[4428.00 --> 4429.24] if they still have Firephones left. +[4430.34 --> 4430.84] Oh, yeah. +[4430.98 --> 4431.90] The joke. +[4432.16 --> 4433.90] The joke going around on the web +[4433.90 --> 4435.50] is that's what they're doing +[4435.50 --> 4437.10] with all the Firephone hardware. +[4438.54 --> 4439.86] Which I find hilarious. +[4440.12 --> 4440.30] Yeah. +[4440.30 --> 4441.60] Because it might be accurate. +[4441.92 --> 4444.08] So it's got seven beam-forming microphones +[4444.08 --> 4445.44] with great noise cancellation. +[4445.74 --> 4446.84] So even if it's playing music, +[4446.94 --> 4447.68] it can still hear you +[4447.68 --> 4448.52] from across the room, +[4448.64 --> 4449.86] which I guess is neat, +[4449.94 --> 4450.60] except that my phone +[4450.60 --> 4451.38] doesn't have to hear me +[4451.38 --> 4452.06] from across the room +[4452.06 --> 4453.00] because I'm already holding it. +[4453.40 --> 4454.96] And my smartwatch, +[4455.34 --> 4456.46] I can also talk to, +[4456.84 --> 4457.74] although I'm not actually +[4457.74 --> 4459.80] a huge fan of the Moto 360 so far. +[4459.90 --> 4460.32] But again, +[4460.40 --> 4461.38] I've only spent a day with it, +[4461.46 --> 4462.92] so lots of time for that to change. +[4465.68 --> 4466.96] Advanced audio design. +[4466.96 --> 4469.66] And it has a massive 2.5-inch subwoofer. +[4475.24 --> 4476.98] I'm a huge proponent +[4476.98 --> 4478.14] for voice control stuff. +[4478.84 --> 4479.82] Not that interested. +[4480.76 --> 4482.28] Like, I've been toying +[4482.28 --> 4483.64] with this idea for a while +[4483.64 --> 4485.04] where if I set up a server +[4485.04 --> 4487.68] that had dragon speaking on it, +[4488.12 --> 4490.08] I could have... +[4490.08 --> 4491.64] This is going to take me a sec, +[4491.72 --> 4492.26] but this is something +[4492.26 --> 4493.22] I've been playing with for a while. +[4493.42 --> 4493.96] Right now, +[4494.00 --> 4494.74] it's just too expensive +[4494.74 --> 4495.60] to properly do. +[4496.02 --> 4496.72] Hold on, hold on. +[4496.78 --> 4497.32] Can I jump in +[4497.32 --> 4498.12] before you do it then? +[4498.30 --> 4498.54] Yes. +[4499.46 --> 4499.78] Warto? +[4500.00 --> 4500.24] Warto? +[4500.60 --> 4501.56] Will the Echo 2 +[4501.56 --> 4502.72] be called the Echo Echo? +[4503.50 --> 4503.86] Hopefully. +[4506.32 --> 4507.20] And the Echo 3 +[4507.20 --> 4508.86] will be the Echo Echo Echo. +[4509.90 --> 4510.68] Sorry, go ahead. +[4510.82 --> 4512.04] I want to set up an array +[4512.04 --> 4513.44] of little microphones +[4513.44 --> 4515.98] like all around my place +[4515.98 --> 4517.56] and then have a +[4517.56 --> 4518.62] like little central server +[4518.62 --> 4519.14] that has something +[4519.14 --> 4519.88] like dragon speaking +[4519.88 --> 4520.60] hooked up to it +[4520.60 --> 4521.60] so that I can just, +[4521.84 --> 4523.04] it can pick up whatever +[4523.04 --> 4524.38] and just look for keywords +[4524.38 --> 4527.24] and then if I say like +[4527.24 --> 4529.14] play music, +[4530.46 --> 4531.76] some band. +[4532.08 --> 4532.56] One Direction. +[4532.76 --> 4534.36] One, I don't have any of that, +[4534.42 --> 4534.70] but sure. +[4534.78 --> 4535.24] Sure you don't. +[4537.80 --> 4538.20] Anyways, +[4538.48 --> 4539.40] it would be able to +[4539.40 --> 4540.24] pick that up +[4540.24 --> 4541.22] and then actually +[4541.22 --> 4542.22] just do that +[4542.22 --> 4542.64] and I could have +[4542.64 --> 4543.96] like a library of keywords +[4543.96 --> 4544.98] that I set up +[4544.98 --> 4546.26] and program +[4546.26 --> 4547.36] and tell them what to do. +[4547.50 --> 4548.22] That could actually +[4548.22 --> 4548.90] be really cool. +[4549.22 --> 4549.96] The reason why +[4549.96 --> 4551.26] I would like that setup +[4551.26 --> 4552.42] is I could be anywhere. +[4554.04 --> 4555.26] And like this thing, +[4555.44 --> 4556.04] I don't care about +[4556.04 --> 4557.08] their stupid server microphones. +[4557.18 --> 4557.58] You're not going to be able +[4557.58 --> 4558.92] to be anywhere in your house +[4558.92 --> 4560.16] and have it work. +[4560.26 --> 4560.76] You'd have to be +[4560.76 --> 4561.90] like within that room. +[4562.36 --> 4563.08] Maybe you don't have to be +[4563.08 --> 4563.88] as close to get +[4563.88 --> 4564.88] your phone to work +[4564.88 --> 4565.98] although to be completely honest, +[4566.04 --> 4567.54] if I just talk loud enough, +[4568.00 --> 4569.60] my phone can usually pick up +[4569.60 --> 4571.64] if I call for it. +[4571.82 --> 4572.88] That's how I find it sometimes. +[4572.96 --> 4574.06] This is one of those products +[4574.06 --> 4576.20] that I just don't get +[4576.20 --> 4578.58] because like the cynic in me, +[4578.70 --> 4579.54] if it was a company +[4579.54 --> 4580.76] that's smaller than Amazon, +[4580.76 --> 4581.96] I would kind of go, +[4582.22 --> 4582.40] okay, +[4582.44 --> 4583.44] they're trying to fund +[4583.44 --> 4584.26] the next wave +[4584.26 --> 4585.66] by selling a bunch +[4585.66 --> 4586.42] of these things +[4586.42 --> 4586.98] that ultimately +[4586.98 --> 4587.76] they have to know +[4587.76 --> 4588.52] are going to be useless +[4588.52 --> 4590.12] because ultimately +[4590.12 --> 4590.82] as, +[4591.20 --> 4592.94] so let's look at the five year +[4592.94 --> 4593.76] or the 10 year outlook. +[4593.98 --> 4594.14] You know, +[4594.16 --> 4594.54] when you've got +[4594.54 --> 4595.46] your Nest thermostat +[4595.46 --> 4596.22] and you've got +[4596.22 --> 4597.68] your self-locking, +[4597.74 --> 4598.10] what is it? +[4598.16 --> 4598.78] Genie door? +[4599.10 --> 4599.60] I forget what +[4599.60 --> 4601.38] that smart door lock is +[4601.38 --> 4602.58] and you've got all this crap +[4602.58 --> 4603.22] and your house starts +[4603.22 --> 4604.70] to get way more smart +[4604.70 --> 4605.70] and way more connected +[4605.70 --> 4607.70] with Internet of Things stuff +[4607.70 --> 4608.80] just kind of naturally +[4608.80 --> 4609.38] over time +[4609.38 --> 4610.34] because it happens +[4610.34 --> 4611.40] no matter what you want +[4611.40 --> 4612.14] because ultimately +[4612.14 --> 4612.62] you're going to, +[4612.66 --> 4613.22] you're going to go +[4613.22 --> 4614.24] to Best Buy one day +[4614.24 --> 4615.52] to buy a dishwasher +[4615.52 --> 4616.82] and every, +[4616.98 --> 4618.46] it's going to be $20 more +[4618.46 --> 4619.68] for the smart connected model +[4619.68 --> 4620.22] and you might as well +[4620.22 --> 4620.76] just get it. +[4621.10 --> 4622.90] So it just happens over time. +[4623.08 --> 4623.20] Yeah. +[4623.30 --> 4624.46] And so this device +[4624.46 --> 4625.86] will never be useful for that +[4625.86 --> 4627.26] because as, +[4627.42 --> 4629.84] as the idea gets bigger +[4629.84 --> 4630.44] and the functionality +[4630.44 --> 4631.12] gets bigger, +[4631.20 --> 4631.98] the idea of something +[4631.98 --> 4632.98] that sits on your desk +[4632.98 --> 4633.56] is going to look +[4633.56 --> 4634.70] even more stupid +[4634.70 --> 4635.62] as everyday passes. +[4635.62 --> 4637.32] So I would look at it +[4637.32 --> 4637.64] and I would go, +[4637.78 --> 4637.88] okay, +[4637.90 --> 4638.42] they're just trying +[4638.42 --> 4639.08] to get some money +[4639.08 --> 4640.88] to fund the actual product +[4640.88 --> 4643.28] but what's Amazon's excuse? +[4643.90 --> 4645.16] Because they could afford +[4645.16 --> 4646.82] to just keep developing this +[4646.82 --> 4647.36] and keep, +[4647.36 --> 4649.02] keep working on it +[4649.02 --> 4649.92] until something's +[4649.92 --> 4650.72] actually ready. +[4651.70 --> 4652.40] Amazon doesn't seem +[4652.40 --> 4653.60] to be doing super well +[4653.60 --> 4655.04] with the hardware stuff. +[4656.24 --> 4657.02] Kindle's great. +[4657.68 --> 4657.96] Okay, +[4658.06 --> 4658.40] I take that back. +[4658.40 --> 4658.86] Maybe their, +[4658.86 --> 4660.30] their Kindle hubris +[4660.30 --> 4661.14] led them to believe +[4661.14 --> 4662.16] that people wanted something +[4662.16 --> 4662.74] other than a way +[4662.74 --> 4663.62] to read books from them. +[4663.78 --> 4664.02] Yeah. +[4664.02 --> 4664.74] Like, +[4664.84 --> 4666.66] your phone sucks +[4666.66 --> 4667.56] and this Echo thing +[4667.56 --> 4668.04] is stupid +[4668.04 --> 4669.30] and you should feel bad. +[4671.60 --> 4672.08] Oh, +[4672.12 --> 4673.10] I've got someone saying, +[4673.22 --> 4673.48] um, +[4673.82 --> 4674.14] Linus, +[4674.18 --> 4675.22] I work in HVAC. +[4675.34 --> 4676.32] Trust me when I say +[4676.32 --> 4677.80] that Nest thermostats +[4677.80 --> 4678.52] are a PETA. +[4678.88 --> 4679.20] Um, +[4679.20 --> 4679.86] I believe you. +[4679.96 --> 4680.34] Actually, +[4680.56 --> 4682.28] Nest was one of those companies +[4682.28 --> 4683.14] that I kind of went, +[4683.66 --> 4684.26] really? +[4684.68 --> 4686.16] You got acquired by Google +[4686.16 --> 4687.36] for a billion dollars? +[4687.46 --> 4688.56] Are you freaking kidding me? +[4688.78 --> 4689.26] They've had, +[4689.34 --> 4689.42] what, +[4689.48 --> 4690.90] like three recalls +[4690.90 --> 4691.88] in their history? +[4692.52 --> 4693.68] Maybe it's only two. +[4693.68 --> 4694.62] But they were like +[4694.62 --> 4695.68] a big deal. +[4695.90 --> 4696.04] Like, +[4696.06 --> 4696.64] I think their, +[4696.72 --> 4697.72] their smoke detector, +[4697.72 --> 4698.48] uh, +[4698.48 --> 4699.14] was recalled +[4699.14 --> 4700.30] because of something. +[4700.50 --> 4701.44] That's not good. +[4701.64 --> 4702.80] You don't want your smoke detector +[4702.80 --> 4703.10] to be, +[4703.44 --> 4703.68] yeah. +[4703.70 --> 4704.10] Terrible. +[4704.56 --> 4704.74] Like, +[4705.08 --> 4705.44] awful. +[4705.72 --> 4705.94] Like, +[4706.00 --> 4707.26] the amount of crap +[4707.26 --> 4708.90] that Nest has gotten away with +[4708.90 --> 4710.30] just by being like a, +[4710.30 --> 4711.76] like a Silicon Valley +[4711.76 --> 4713.22] connected +[4713.22 --> 4715.18] Web 2.0 company +[4715.18 --> 4716.64] is just mind-boggling to me. +[4716.64 --> 4717.98] And the idea +[4717.98 --> 4718.72] that you need +[4718.72 --> 4719.60] a smart thermostat +[4719.60 --> 4721.02] is still just kind of +[4721.02 --> 4721.72] baffling to me. +[4722.12 --> 4723.42] I have a smart thermostat. +[4723.74 --> 4724.40] It's called, +[4725.04 --> 4726.14] I program it +[4726.14 --> 4727.30] to maintain the temperature +[4727.30 --> 4727.94] in my house +[4727.94 --> 4729.18] at a certain threshold. +[4729.52 --> 4731.22] And if I'm leaving the house +[4731.22 --> 4732.34] for like, +[4732.40 --> 4732.90] the weekend, +[4733.06 --> 4734.04] I turn it off. +[4735.14 --> 4735.76] And then, +[4736.04 --> 4737.52] it comes back on automatically +[4737.52 --> 4739.30] because you have a schedule +[4739.30 --> 4739.88] for it. +[4740.96 --> 4741.48] Like, +[4741.48 --> 4743.64] not a big deal. +[4744.14 --> 4744.50] And I, +[4744.50 --> 4745.74] I get that some people +[4745.74 --> 4746.94] might save a lot of power +[4746.94 --> 4748.12] if they keep their house +[4748.12 --> 4749.58] at 28 degrees Celsius +[4749.58 --> 4750.48] or whatever else. +[4750.72 --> 4751.22] It's like, +[4751.26 --> 4751.38] yeah, +[4751.40 --> 4752.44] we have the sauna house +[4752.44 --> 4753.44] so we only want to heat it +[4753.44 --> 4754.14] when we're actually, +[4754.62 --> 4755.00] you know, +[4755.20 --> 4756.48] running around naked. +[4756.66 --> 4756.92] Or no, +[4757.02 --> 4758.04] not running around naked, +[4758.50 --> 4759.34] lounging naked. +[4759.50 --> 4759.82] There you go. +[4759.82 --> 4760.40] Because if we were running +[4760.40 --> 4761.48] we'd be generating enough. +[4761.48 --> 4762.10] Yeah, yeah. +[4764.54 --> 4765.82] Maybe one of these days +[4765.82 --> 4766.82] I'll try a Nest +[4766.82 --> 4768.16] and then I'll, +[4768.20 --> 4769.14] I'll tell you guys, +[4769.26 --> 4769.72] holy crap, +[4769.78 --> 4770.22] I was wrong. +[4770.28 --> 4770.84] It's revolutionary +[4770.84 --> 4771.76] but for now +[4771.76 --> 4772.40] it feels like +[4772.40 --> 4772.88] one of those things +[4772.88 --> 4773.62] I don't really need. +[4774.06 --> 4774.86] It also doesn't help +[4774.86 --> 4775.46] that my house +[4775.46 --> 4776.60] only has two wires +[4776.60 --> 4777.42] running to my thermostat +[4777.42 --> 4778.46] so I'm not even Nest +[4778.46 --> 4779.10] compatible +[4779.10 --> 4780.54] unless I wanted to run wires +[4780.54 --> 4781.62] through my wall +[4781.62 --> 4782.20] which would involve +[4782.20 --> 4783.00] tearing up my wall. +[4783.00 --> 4783.66] Which does not sound like fun. +[4783.94 --> 4784.76] Which is not happening. +[4784.82 --> 4786.04] Let's not do that. +[4786.44 --> 4786.78] Alright, +[4787.26 --> 4788.46] what else we got here? +[4788.74 --> 4789.32] That's I think +[4789.32 --> 4790.14] most of the like +[4790.14 --> 4790.98] really big topics +[4790.98 --> 4791.46] this week, +[4791.58 --> 4792.12] isn't it? +[4792.30 --> 4792.70] Yeah, +[4792.86 --> 4794.50] we have some rapid fiery stuff. +[4794.64 --> 4795.82] We have that dude's man cave +[4795.82 --> 4796.56] which we can't show +[4796.56 --> 4797.14] because we don't have +[4797.14 --> 4798.36] screen sharing working. +[4799.14 --> 4800.02] Future Mark. +[4800.04 --> 4800.74] We can go look at it. +[4800.84 --> 4802.30] Acquired by UL. +[4802.44 --> 4803.62] That's a big deal actually. +[4803.84 --> 4805.52] So UL are the guys +[4805.52 --> 4807.12] that have like a little logo. +[4808.02 --> 4808.84] Not this one. +[4808.96 --> 4810.40] You'll find it on a lot of different... +[4810.40 --> 4811.46] But the charger for this +[4811.46 --> 4812.76] will definitely have a UL logo. +[4812.76 --> 4813.38] Electronic-y stuff. +[4813.54 --> 4813.68] Yeah, +[4813.76 --> 4814.40] so basically +[4814.40 --> 4816.52] they do certification and testing. +[4816.90 --> 4817.86] Really important stuff +[4817.86 --> 4818.42] that they do. +[4818.58 --> 4818.90] Really, +[4819.04 --> 4819.56] really good +[4819.56 --> 4820.04] so that, +[4820.10 --> 4820.34] you know, +[4820.40 --> 4821.64] your iPhone charger +[4821.64 --> 4822.52] doesn't light on fire. +[4822.62 --> 4823.70] That's the kind of stuff they do +[4823.70 --> 4825.60] and that's why +[4825.60 --> 4826.96] buying cheapo stuff +[4826.96 --> 4828.54] that's not certified by UL +[4828.54 --> 4829.82] can be a little bit risky +[4829.82 --> 4832.34] because they do a great job. +[4832.34 --> 4832.72] Yeah. +[4832.72 --> 4834.88] And they acquired Future Mark, +[4835.00 --> 4836.22] the makers of PC Mark +[4836.22 --> 4837.20] and 3D Mark +[4837.20 --> 4837.86] with the intention +[4837.86 --> 4839.18] of branching into, +[4839.74 --> 4840.22] well, +[4840.38 --> 4841.12] basically just, +[4841.18 --> 4841.84] I guess, +[4841.94 --> 4845.16] adding another testing benchmark. +[4845.42 --> 4845.80] Essentially, +[4845.94 --> 4846.18] it's just, +[4846.26 --> 4847.08] it's a software benchmark. +[4847.08 --> 4847.80] Yeah, yeah. +[4847.80 --> 4848.68] So Future Mark +[4848.68 --> 4849.34] has been developing +[4849.34 --> 4849.94] all kinds of stuff. +[4850.00 --> 4850.66] In the old days, +[4850.74 --> 4851.98] it was just 3D Mark. +[4852.08 --> 4853.14] You tested graphics cards +[4853.14 --> 4853.72] and that was it. +[4854.06 --> 4854.70] And then they were like, +[4854.76 --> 4854.92] oh, +[4854.98 --> 4855.12] well, +[4855.18 --> 4855.36] you know, +[4855.40 --> 4856.42] maybe 3D Mark +[4856.42 --> 4856.96] can, +[4857.22 --> 4857.62] you know, +[4857.72 --> 4858.54] also test, +[4858.58 --> 4858.88] like, +[4859.04 --> 4860.22] physics on your graphics card. +[4860.28 --> 4860.38] Well, +[4860.38 --> 4860.88] hold on a second. +[4860.96 --> 4861.96] Maybe we'll make PC Mark +[4861.96 --> 4863.02] and it'll test your whole PC. +[4863.40 --> 4864.10] And then they've got +[4864.10 --> 4865.10] mobile phone stuff +[4865.10 --> 4865.22] and, +[4865.38 --> 4866.22] all this crazy stuff. +[4866.32 --> 4866.42] Like, +[4866.44 --> 4867.22] that's great! +[4867.36 --> 4867.52] Yeah. +[4867.64 --> 4868.96] Having a big company +[4868.96 --> 4869.88] like UL +[4869.88 --> 4871.26] behind Future Mark, +[4871.40 --> 4872.22] turning it into +[4872.22 --> 4873.24] something that really +[4873.24 --> 4874.44] could be +[4874.44 --> 4875.56] more than just this, +[4875.66 --> 4875.76] like, +[4875.88 --> 4876.20] weird, +[4876.32 --> 4876.50] like, +[4876.56 --> 4877.64] IT industry standard, +[4877.80 --> 4878.20] like, +[4878.24 --> 4879.20] if you could go to +[4879.20 --> 4879.92] Best Buy +[4879.92 --> 4881.02] and the PCs +[4881.02 --> 4881.66] would be sorted +[4881.66 --> 4882.50] by Future Mark +[4882.50 --> 4883.32] score +[4883.32 --> 4884.28] or something like that, +[4884.32 --> 4885.38] that's so much more meaningful. +[4885.46 --> 4886.04] It's not perfect +[4886.04 --> 4887.36] at all. +[4887.52 --> 4888.94] But it's so much more meaningful +[4888.94 --> 4889.78] than megahertz +[4889.78 --> 4891.24] that I see it as a huge step +[4891.24 --> 4891.88] in the right direction. +[4892.00 --> 4892.56] I think it's awesome. +[4893.32 --> 4894.46] Should we wreck +[4894.46 --> 4897.04] Ubisoft for a little bit? +[4897.36 --> 4897.60] Sure. +[4897.76 --> 4897.94] Yeah, +[4897.98 --> 4898.70] I'll let you do it. +[4899.34 --> 4899.58] Wait, +[4899.64 --> 4901.20] can I do the gold Apple watch first? +[4901.38 --> 4901.64] Yes. +[4901.92 --> 4902.12] Okay, +[4902.16 --> 4903.36] so the gold Apple watch +[4903.36 --> 4905.24] estimated to cost $5,000. +[4905.68 --> 4906.42] This is a rumor. +[4906.42 --> 4907.20] This was posted by +[4907.20 --> 4908.56] Pit5000 on the forum +[4908.56 --> 4909.72] and it is rumored +[4909.72 --> 4910.46] that it will debut +[4910.46 --> 4912.20] on February 14th, +[4912.30 --> 4912.98] Valentine's Day. +[4913.26 --> 4914.16] Probably not an accident. +[4914.86 --> 4915.68] 5,000... +[4915.68 --> 4916.14] Rose gold. +[4916.48 --> 4916.78] Oh, +[4916.94 --> 4917.24] snap. +[4918.38 --> 4918.78] Oh, +[4919.66 --> 4920.04] snap. +[4921.00 --> 4921.50] Get it? +[4922.98 --> 4923.34] Roses? +[4924.08 --> 4924.32] Oh, +[4924.36 --> 4925.10] I thought you meant rose +[4925.10 --> 4926.50] because the price went up a lot +[4926.50 --> 4927.26] from what people thought +[4927.26 --> 4927.64] it would be. +[4928.00 --> 4928.24] Oh, +[4929.42 --> 4929.86] snap. +[4930.76 --> 4931.44] We're awful. +[4931.44 --> 4932.08] We are. +[4932.82 --> 4933.22] So, +[4933.46 --> 4934.50] rumored to be $5,000 +[4934.50 --> 4935.60] for gold edition. +[4935.74 --> 4936.72] It's unclear whether +[4936.72 --> 4937.70] they're solid or plated, +[4937.84 --> 4938.80] but let me tell you guys, +[4938.90 --> 4939.38] it's Apple. +[4939.54 --> 4940.00] It's plated. +[4940.88 --> 4942.26] And $500 +[4942.26 --> 4943.64] for the steel version +[4943.64 --> 4944.84] with the sport version, +[4945.14 --> 4945.84] which was rumored +[4945.84 --> 4946.46] to be +[4946.46 --> 4947.58] sort of like +[4947.58 --> 4949.52] just the tip +[4949.52 --> 4950.10] of the iceberg +[4950.10 --> 4951.10] in terms of pricing +[4951.10 --> 4952.38] that they unveiled +[4952.38 --> 4953.22] being the +[4953.22 --> 4954.34] lowest cost +[4954.34 --> 4955.30] version. +[4955.74 --> 4956.26] It's rumored +[4956.26 --> 4957.36] to be 18 karat gold +[4957.36 --> 4959.06] with sapphire crystal glass +[4959.06 --> 4959.94] and come with a variety +[4959.94 --> 4960.66] of luxurious +[4960.66 --> 4961.68] strap options. +[4962.04 --> 4962.72] It's unclear. +[4962.88 --> 4963.00] Oh, +[4963.10 --> 4963.26] okay, +[4963.32 --> 4964.14] so I just said that. +[4964.86 --> 4965.16] So, +[4965.64 --> 4966.40] to all the people +[4966.40 --> 4967.16] kind of running around +[4967.16 --> 4967.48] going, +[4967.74 --> 4968.90] Apple is overpriced +[4968.90 --> 4970.10] and that's totally unreasonable. +[4970.46 --> 4971.36] Shut up. +[4973.04 --> 4973.56] Watches +[4973.56 --> 4974.60] are overpriced. +[4974.60 --> 4974.82] Yeah. +[4975.18 --> 4976.24] And watch pricing +[4976.24 --> 4977.30] is unreasonable. +[4977.60 --> 4977.74] Yeah. +[4977.82 --> 4978.82] For once, +[4979.18 --> 4980.58] it is not +[4980.58 --> 4981.44] Apple +[4981.44 --> 4982.78] setting the precedent here. +[4983.22 --> 4984.44] They are just +[4984.44 --> 4986.18] expanding into a market +[4986.18 --> 4987.28] that is already +[4987.28 --> 4988.64] charging way too much +[4988.64 --> 4989.64] if you look at it +[4989.64 --> 4990.92] from a bill of materials +[4990.92 --> 4992.78] cost perspective. +[4993.58 --> 4993.82] So, +[4994.56 --> 4995.46] nothing new. +[4995.92 --> 4996.82] Move along. +[4997.20 --> 4997.92] $5,000 +[4997.92 --> 4999.48] for a high-end watch +[4999.48 --> 5000.28] is like +[5000.28 --> 5002.12] nothing to see here, +[5002.20 --> 5002.58] guys. +[5003.04 --> 5003.66] Me personally, +[5003.96 --> 5005.20] I think it's ridiculous. +[5005.46 --> 5005.62] Oh, yeah. +[5005.68 --> 5006.38] I'd never buy one. +[5006.52 --> 5007.20] There's lots of people +[5007.20 --> 5007.54] that do. +[5007.70 --> 5008.68] Never buy one. +[5009.40 --> 5010.04] Lots of relative. +[5010.54 --> 5011.54] Lots of people do. +[5011.68 --> 5012.00] In fact, +[5012.10 --> 5012.66] even like +[5012.66 --> 5013.38] otherwise, +[5013.62 --> 5014.52] like normal people +[5014.52 --> 5015.68] who have real jobs +[5015.68 --> 5016.92] might own a Rolex +[5016.92 --> 5018.16] because that +[5018.16 --> 5019.82] particular status symbol +[5019.82 --> 5020.54] of a watch +[5020.54 --> 5021.34] is very, +[5021.46 --> 5022.08] very important to them. +[5022.32 --> 5023.00] The one thing +[5023.00 --> 5023.72] that I have to say +[5023.72 --> 5024.40] about this +[5024.40 --> 5025.12] is +[5025.12 --> 5025.88] Apple, +[5026.96 --> 5027.84] do this right. +[5028.50 --> 5029.62] Even if the hardware +[5029.62 --> 5030.54] changes +[5030.54 --> 5032.58] on a very rapid basis, +[5032.86 --> 5033.60] you cannot +[5033.60 --> 5034.34] treat +[5034.34 --> 5036.02] a $5,000 watch +[5036.02 --> 5036.80] the same way +[5036.80 --> 5037.46] that you do +[5037.46 --> 5038.82] something relatively +[5038.82 --> 5039.44] disposable, +[5039.86 --> 5040.96] like even at $1,000, +[5041.68 --> 5042.36] a smartphone. +[5042.70 --> 5044.14] Because if they roll out +[5044.14 --> 5045.04] a new iteration +[5045.04 --> 5046.24] that is dramatically +[5046.24 --> 5047.32] better than the old one +[5047.32 --> 5048.06] every year +[5048.06 --> 5049.06] at $5,000, +[5049.54 --> 5050.52] even people +[5050.52 --> 5051.38] with $5,000 +[5051.38 --> 5052.44] to spend on a watch +[5052.44 --> 5053.78] are going to get pissed. +[5055.06 --> 5055.72] So there. +[5055.94 --> 5056.44] That's true. +[5056.62 --> 5057.00] Tim Cook, +[5057.04 --> 5057.68] I hope you're listening. +[5059.36 --> 5059.76] No. +[5060.62 --> 5061.28] One thing, +[5061.62 --> 5062.84] the deal you did +[5062.84 --> 5063.54] with your glasses +[5063.54 --> 5064.38] so that you got +[5064.38 --> 5064.78] your glasses, +[5064.88 --> 5065.42] what was that deal? +[5065.50 --> 5066.08] Like you had to +[5066.08 --> 5067.12] have a certain pair +[5067.12 --> 5067.78] and not lose them +[5067.78 --> 5068.18] or something? +[5068.54 --> 5068.90] Oh, +[5069.02 --> 5070.76] with my Oakleys. +[5071.02 --> 5071.48] Yeah, yeah. +[5071.62 --> 5073.06] So I'm a bit +[5073.06 --> 5073.62] of a cheapskate. +[5073.68 --> 5074.12] I'm also a bit +[5074.12 --> 5074.80] of a scatterbrain. +[5074.90 --> 5075.80] So the deal +[5075.80 --> 5076.66] that my wife +[5076.66 --> 5077.64] actually made with me +[5077.64 --> 5078.92] was you can get +[5078.92 --> 5079.84] nice sunglasses, +[5080.10 --> 5080.76] like the kind +[5080.76 --> 5082.26] with polarized lenses +[5082.26 --> 5084.58] and like shatter-resistant lenses +[5084.58 --> 5085.92] that look good +[5085.92 --> 5086.62] and feel good +[5086.62 --> 5087.10] and are like +[5087.10 --> 5088.30] a couple hundred bucks +[5088.30 --> 5090.16] if you get some +[5090.16 --> 5091.56] like cheapo foster grants +[5091.56 --> 5092.34] at the drugstore +[5092.34 --> 5093.54] and can manage +[5093.54 --> 5094.40] to not lose those +[5094.40 --> 5095.16] for a few months. +[5095.72 --> 5096.86] And so I did +[5096.86 --> 5097.74] and it was actually +[5097.74 --> 5098.86] an excellent exercise +[5098.86 --> 5099.96] in being very conscious +[5099.96 --> 5100.72] of having a goal +[5100.72 --> 5101.44] to work towards +[5101.44 --> 5102.26] to not lose it. +[5102.74 --> 5103.84] And then I did end up +[5103.84 --> 5104.56] earning my awesome +[5104.56 --> 5104.96] sunglasses +[5104.96 --> 5106.08] that I have now +[5106.08 --> 5106.90] never lost +[5106.90 --> 5107.46] even though I used +[5107.46 --> 5108.04] to lose glasses +[5108.04 --> 5108.62] all the time. +[5108.76 --> 5109.46] I will not have +[5109.46 --> 5110.48] a super nice watch +[5110.48 --> 5112.02] because +[5112.02 --> 5113.18] and maybe I'll redo +[5113.18 --> 5114.02] this at some time +[5114.02 --> 5115.04] but when I was younger +[5115.04 --> 5116.12] I went to the store +[5116.12 --> 5117.16] and bought a fairly cheap one +[5117.16 --> 5117.86] and lost it within +[5117.86 --> 5118.52] like a week +[5118.52 --> 5119.18] and then was like +[5119.18 --> 5120.00] I will never have +[5120.00 --> 5120.82] a super nice watch. +[5121.26 --> 5121.96] I've done that +[5121.96 --> 5123.02] with jewelry as well +[5123.02 --> 5123.56] and I'm just like +[5123.56 --> 5124.40] I can't just keep +[5124.40 --> 5125.28] things on my hands +[5125.28 --> 5126.52] because it'll +[5126.52 --> 5127.16] be annoying +[5127.16 --> 5127.68] because I'll be doing +[5127.68 --> 5128.22] something like +[5128.22 --> 5129.00] I'll have to pull +[5129.00 --> 5129.82] something or do whatever +[5129.82 --> 5130.88] and it will never +[5130.88 --> 5131.28] come back +[5131.28 --> 5132.78] and I know that +[5132.78 --> 5133.44] so I will just +[5133.44 --> 5134.02] not have one +[5134.02 --> 5135.06] and that's fine. +[5135.72 --> 5136.38] Well I'll tell you what +[5136.38 --> 5136.94] we'll get you +[5136.94 --> 5138.44] like a baby's first +[5138.44 --> 5139.24] smart watch +[5139.24 --> 5140.22] we'll get you +[5140.22 --> 5141.02] a trainer watch +[5141.02 --> 5143.56] before you drop +[5143.56 --> 5144.24] your five grand +[5144.24 --> 5145.12] on a goldmine watch. +[5145.22 --> 5146.38] Those little tracking ones +[5146.38 --> 5147.14] that the kids get +[5147.14 --> 5147.50] from it. +[5147.50 --> 5147.96] Yeah no no +[5147.96 --> 5149.02] it shouldn't tell the time +[5149.02 --> 5149.74] it's the kind +[5149.74 --> 5150.46] with the little balls +[5150.46 --> 5150.80] in it +[5150.80 --> 5151.56] that you like +[5151.56 --> 5152.16] hold in it. +[5154.16 --> 5154.78] I'll be like +[5154.78 --> 5155.78] look you can game +[5155.78 --> 5156.80] on your mobile. +[5156.80 --> 5158.26] No one else can game +[5158.26 --> 5158.80] on their watch +[5158.80 --> 5159.76] I'm like the only person +[5159.76 --> 5160.58] that's fantastic. +[5161.08 --> 5162.02] I have the highest +[5162.02 --> 5163.26] end watch actually. +[5163.94 --> 5164.38] Anyways. +[5164.68 --> 5165.18] Okay want to hate +[5165.18 --> 5166.12] on Ubisoft for a bit? +[5166.28 --> 5166.48] Yeah. +[5166.48 --> 5166.74] Hold on. +[5167.06 --> 5168.14] I have an actual +[5168.14 --> 5169.52] lower third for this. +[5169.84 --> 5170.10] You know what +[5170.10 --> 5170.82] I'll go find it +[5170.82 --> 5171.54] while you work on this. +[5171.62 --> 5172.00] Yeah yeah yeah +[5172.00 --> 5172.28] it's fine. +[5172.30 --> 5173.68] So we can't show you +[5173.68 --> 5175.42] which totally sucks +[5175.42 --> 5176.96] this topic is posted by +[5176.96 --> 5178.42] the future mark topic +[5178.42 --> 5179.58] was posted by +[5179.58 --> 5180.90] Duck Dodgers +[5180.90 --> 5181.84] okay. +[5182.08 --> 5182.66] Of course it's fine. +[5182.66 --> 5184.70] And then this one +[5184.70 --> 5185.28] which is about +[5185.28 --> 5186.52] screenshots from +[5186.52 --> 5187.24] Assassin's Creed +[5187.24 --> 5189.34] PS4 version of +[5189.34 --> 5190.14] Unity blah blah blah +[5190.14 --> 5192.42] is from Test Stranger. +[5192.94 --> 5193.64] By the way +[5193.64 --> 5194.20] one of the reasons +[5194.20 --> 5194.76] why we might have +[5194.76 --> 5195.40] had a little bit +[5195.40 --> 5196.40] of a lower user count +[5196.40 --> 5197.34] was also because +[5197.34 --> 5198.00] there's not only +[5198.00 --> 5198.78] BlizzCon running +[5198.78 --> 5199.46] right now +[5199.46 --> 5200.38] but also there is +[5200.38 --> 5201.22] an Ubisoft stream +[5201.22 --> 5201.70] showing off +[5201.70 --> 5202.24] Assassin's Creed +[5202.24 --> 5202.90] running right now. +[5203.42 --> 5204.46] I'm amazed we even +[5204.46 --> 5205.60] have 5200 viewers. +[5206.20 --> 5206.92] Thank you. +[5207.24 --> 5207.40] Yay. +[5207.82 --> 5208.96] Thanks for showing up. +[5209.12 --> 5210.24] I really appreciate it. +[5210.38 --> 5210.84] I do too. +[5211.14 --> 5212.14] I'm not super surprised +[5212.14 --> 5212.54] that you're not +[5212.54 --> 5212.96] watching the +[5212.96 --> 5213.76] Assassin's Creed one +[5213.76 --> 5215.18] but the BlizzCon one +[5215.18 --> 5215.80] is pretty interesting. +[5216.70 --> 5217.62] Reasons why I'm not +[5217.62 --> 5218.14] super surprised +[5218.14 --> 5218.64] you're not watching +[5218.64 --> 5219.40] the Assassin's Creed one +[5219.40 --> 5220.52] is I tuned in +[5220.52 --> 5221.52] for a little bit +[5221.52 --> 5221.96] and was like +[5221.96 --> 5222.60] wow this game +[5222.60 --> 5223.66] looks super old. +[5224.28 --> 5224.48] What? +[5225.50 --> 5227.02] And it's not +[5227.02 --> 5229.26] 1080p on PlayStation 4. +[5229.40 --> 5230.08] Usually from the +[5230.08 --> 5230.58] two consoles +[5230.58 --> 5231.84] we see PlayStation 4 +[5231.84 --> 5233.00] able to step up +[5233.00 --> 5233.50] to the plate +[5233.50 --> 5234.68] and show off 1080p +[5234.68 --> 5235.70] but it is not +[5235.70 --> 5236.26] happening. +[5236.46 --> 5237.14] The pixel count +[5237.14 --> 5238.54] confirms a native +[5238.54 --> 5239.60] resolution of 1600 +[5239.60 --> 5240.66] by 900 +[5240.66 --> 5241.90] which is not like +[5241.90 --> 5243.22] oh it has a white +[5243.22 --> 5243.74] background. +[5243.90 --> 5244.30] Dang it. +[5245.00 --> 5245.68] Way to go +[5245.68 --> 5246.30] Burkle. +[5247.00 --> 5247.72] Okay well anyway +[5247.72 --> 5248.32] that's what our +[5248.32 --> 5248.80] lower third +[5248.80 --> 5249.26] we should probably +[5249.26 --> 5249.66] take that +[5249.66 --> 5250.54] Caterpillar logo +[5250.54 --> 5250.78] out of there. +[5250.78 --> 5251.10] I was just going to +[5251.10 --> 5251.64] say brought to you +[5251.64 --> 5252.42] by Caterpillar? +[5252.96 --> 5253.48] Because digging. +[5254.08 --> 5254.38] I know. +[5254.60 --> 5255.16] Yeah but we should +[5255.16 --> 5255.92] pull that out +[5255.92 --> 5256.46] but that's going to +[5256.46 --> 5257.10] be our keep on +[5257.10 --> 5257.86] digging lower third +[5257.86 --> 5258.26] and we're going to +[5258.26 --> 5258.68] have a shirt +[5258.68 --> 5259.28] coming soon. +[5259.80 --> 5260.08] I was going to +[5260.08 --> 5260.54] say because it's +[5260.54 --> 5261.44] not actually brought +[5261.44 --> 5261.64] to you by Caterpillar. +[5261.64 --> 5262.26] Yeah no it's not. +[5262.34 --> 5262.86] Caterpillar had +[5262.86 --> 5263.48] nothing to do with it. +[5263.48 --> 5264.32] They might get mad +[5264.32 --> 5264.70] about that. +[5264.70 --> 5266.40] Yeah so leave +[5266.40 --> 5267.20] Caterpillar out of +[5267.20 --> 5268.34] it but anyway +[5268.34 --> 5269.18] Ubisoft go ahead. +[5269.56 --> 5270.26] Yeah so we can't +[5270.26 --> 5270.68] really show you +[5270.68 --> 5271.16] the screenshot right +[5271.16 --> 5271.64] now because this +[5271.64 --> 5272.12] thing isn't working +[5272.12 --> 5272.92] but it doesn't look +[5272.92 --> 5274.08] good and like I +[5274.08 --> 5274.74] watched their stream +[5274.74 --> 5275.88] and it doesn't look +[5275.88 --> 5276.22] good. +[5276.36 --> 5277.28] Like the new COD +[5277.28 --> 5278.04] looks better than +[5278.04 --> 5278.92] it and I should +[5278.92 --> 5279.78] never be able to +[5279.78 --> 5280.16] say that. +[5280.84 --> 5282.06] Yeah that's a pretty +[5282.06 --> 5282.56] harsh burn. +[5282.78 --> 5284.34] Yeah no but the new +[5284.34 --> 5284.98] COD is like +[5284.98 --> 5285.74] New COD looks okay. +[5285.90 --> 5286.10] It does. +[5286.10 --> 5286.80] Facial animations +[5286.80 --> 5287.44] look good. +[5288.06 --> 5288.76] Especially in +[5288.76 --> 5289.08] cinematics. +[5289.30 --> 5290.04] The new cinematics +[5290.04 --> 5290.86] in COD if you can +[5290.86 --> 5291.70] actually get the +[5291.70 --> 5293.06] voice track to line up +[5293.06 --> 5293.72] with the video. +[5294.22 --> 5294.72] Damn it. +[5295.08 --> 5296.60] Is actually pretty +[5296.60 --> 5297.24] impressive and the +[5297.24 --> 5298.38] in-game textures on +[5298.38 --> 5299.02] like water bottles +[5299.02 --> 5299.74] when you log up to +[5299.74 --> 5300.42] them and stuff it's +[5300.42 --> 5302.24] like wow that's not +[5302.24 --> 5303.58] horrible because you +[5303.58 --> 5304.38] expect from Call of +[5304.38 --> 5304.88] Duty that it's going +[5304.88 --> 5305.76] to be super bad. +[5306.66 --> 5307.98] And from the stream +[5307.98 --> 5309.36] so far and from some +[5309.36 --> 5310.00] of the images that +[5310.00 --> 5311.12] we've seen about +[5311.12 --> 5313.08] Assassin's Creed it +[5313.08 --> 5314.64] looks kind of bad. +[5315.38 --> 5316.80] Like it I don't know +[5316.80 --> 5317.74] we're going to have +[5317.74 --> 5319.04] to wait and see until +[5319.04 --> 5320.24] we have the PC version. +[5320.24 --> 5320.26] We'll have to check the +[5320.26 --> 5320.86] PC version. +[5321.12 --> 5322.26] Mind you what I will +[5322.26 --> 5323.96] say is that seeing +[5323.96 --> 5325.06] it at the Nvidia +[5325.06 --> 5326.70] GTX 980 event that +[5326.70 --> 5327.36] was where I first +[5327.36 --> 5328.18] saw Assassin's Creed +[5328.18 --> 5330.22] Unity footage was +[5330.22 --> 5330.94] not blown away. +[5331.12 --> 5331.32] No. +[5332.12 --> 5333.52] So I don't know. +[5334.48 --> 5335.86] Kind of not super +[5335.86 --> 5337.02] sure about that. +[5339.26 --> 5339.78] Yeah. +[5340.24 --> 5341.20] Kind of not stoked. +[5341.32 --> 5341.92] It doesn't look +[5341.92 --> 5342.30] great. +[5342.72 --> 5344.48] And like something +[5344.48 --> 5345.32] that was brought up +[5345.32 --> 5346.82] last week which was +[5346.82 --> 5347.84] where one of the +[5347.84 --> 5348.92] developers at Ubisoft +[5348.92 --> 5349.90] was saying like oh +[5349.90 --> 5350.94] yeah people play these +[5350.94 --> 5351.80] games that are like +[5351.80 --> 5353.32] pixel platformers and +[5353.32 --> 5354.22] they're okay with it +[5354.22 --> 5354.74] but then they want +[5354.74 --> 5355.68] 1080p all the time and +[5355.68 --> 5355.96] stuff. +[5356.36 --> 5356.90] And it's like yeah it's +[5356.90 --> 5357.64] an art style. +[5357.80 --> 5358.52] This is why Nintendo +[5358.52 --> 5359.34] gets away with it. +[5359.44 --> 5360.98] They pick a cartoony art +[5360.98 --> 5361.26] style. +[5361.26 --> 5361.56] This is why Blizzard +[5361.56 --> 5362.46] gets away with it. +[5362.48 --> 5362.96] Yeah exactly. +[5363.08 --> 5363.70] This is why Team +[5363.70 --> 5364.84] Fortress 2 gets away +[5364.84 --> 5365.24] with it. +[5365.40 --> 5366.76] It looks really good +[5366.76 --> 5368.02] because it's a style +[5368.02 --> 5369.16] that is not super hard +[5369.16 --> 5369.56] to run. +[5369.76 --> 5371.32] You picked a very +[5371.32 --> 5372.36] realistic art style. +[5372.44 --> 5373.30] That was your choice +[5373.30 --> 5374.66] and it has looked good +[5374.66 --> 5376.14] in the past but it +[5376.14 --> 5376.92] doesn't look good right +[5376.92 --> 5378.08] now and that's on you. +[5378.08 --> 5378.56] Yeah. +[5378.88 --> 5379.60] That sucks. +[5379.82 --> 5380.44] And it's about +[5380.44 --> 5381.46] expectation management. +[5381.64 --> 5382.58] If you're like yeah +[5382.58 --> 5383.66] we're like the next +[5383.66 --> 5385.24] genest gen that ever +[5385.24 --> 5386.86] had 30% more gen than +[5386.86 --> 5387.74] the gen before and +[5387.74 --> 5389.22] we've got like 10 +[5389.22 --> 5390.08] billion different +[5390.08 --> 5390.90] technologies from +[5390.90 --> 5391.86] Nvidia and all that +[5391.86 --> 5392.12] kind of stuff. +[5392.12 --> 5392.72] Then that's what we +[5392.72 --> 5393.62] expect to see whereas +[5393.62 --> 5395.00] if I'm playing retro +[5395.00 --> 5396.02] games and I'm like +[5396.02 --> 5397.98] playing X-Wing and +[5397.98 --> 5398.88] I'm gonna I have to +[5398.88 --> 5399.76] fix my joystick tonight +[5399.76 --> 5400.28] now that I've been +[5400.28 --> 5400.92] talking about it. +[5401.00 --> 5402.04] Anyway if I'm playing +[5402.04 --> 5402.96] retro games well that's +[5402.96 --> 5403.76] my expectation. +[5403.94 --> 5404.76] I'm not expecting it to +[5404.76 --> 5405.26] look amazing. +[5405.50 --> 5405.62] Yeah. +[5405.62 --> 5407.14] Speaking of things +[5407.14 --> 5408.52] that look amazing I +[5408.52 --> 5409.78] found your smartwatch. +[5410.04 --> 5410.82] Oh yes. +[5410.98 --> 5411.82] This has to be it. +[5411.96 --> 5413.68] So add screen region +[5413.68 --> 5413.94] here. +[5414.14 --> 5415.18] Yeah baby. +[5415.92 --> 5416.40] That. +[5416.56 --> 5416.94] There we go. +[5417.20 --> 5417.44] Right there. +[5417.50 --> 5418.16] Well that's the back +[5418.16 --> 5418.40] of it. +[5418.44 --> 5419.28] This was a suggestion +[5419.28 --> 5421.18] from one of the folks +[5421.18 --> 5421.56] on. +[5422.98 --> 5423.80] There we go. +[5423.96 --> 5424.90] Oh yeah. +[5425.30 --> 5425.44] Yeah. +[5425.68 --> 5427.46] Oh that's beautiful. +[5427.62 --> 5428.22] Pink Snoopy. +[5428.52 --> 5429.58] Pink Snoopy for +[5429.58 --> 5431.68] for three dollars and +[5431.68 --> 5433.44] 81 cents United States. +[5433.46 --> 5434.48] It's 7% off. +[5434.48 --> 5435.76] 7% off. +[5435.76 --> 5436.48] Free shipping to +[5436.48 --> 5437.10] Canada and it's +[5437.10 --> 5437.64] three dollars and +[5437.64 --> 5438.00] 80 cents. +[5438.10 --> 5438.72] That's ridiculous. +[5438.90 --> 5439.48] I know right. +[5439.64 --> 5440.54] Isn't that amazing? +[5440.62 --> 5440.90] Deal Extreme. +[5441.40 --> 5442.68] Deal Extreme is amazing. +[5442.80 --> 5443.46] It's the best place to +[5443.46 --> 5444.36] get like obscure +[5444.36 --> 5445.00] batteries. +[5445.88 --> 5446.10] Yeah. +[5446.38 --> 5447.10] Yeah that's cool. +[5447.52 --> 5448.54] And then one that I +[5448.54 --> 5449.48] didn't actually think was +[5449.48 --> 5450.50] that big of a deal but +[5450.50 --> 5450.96] I just thought it was +[5450.96 --> 5451.24] funny. +[5451.80 --> 5453.30] Is that Ubisoft is +[5453.30 --> 5455.00] partnered with let me +[5455.00 --> 5456.76] see here who it is +[5456.76 --> 5457.24] because it's not +[5457.24 --> 5458.02] actually in the title. +[5458.18 --> 5459.78] I think it's Gillette. +[5460.78 --> 5461.52] It says Edge. +[5461.76 --> 5461.94] Yeah. +[5461.94 --> 5462.60] Is that a company or +[5462.60 --> 5463.34] is that Edge? +[5463.34 --> 5464.98] Edge is the company? +[5465.42 --> 5466.28] Yeah I think so. +[5466.52 --> 5466.84] Is it? +[5467.22 --> 5467.90] I don't even know. +[5467.96 --> 5468.68] Or it's like a model or +[5468.68 --> 5468.80] something. +[5468.86 --> 5469.58] We're kind of dollar +[5469.58 --> 5470.26] shave club guys. +[5471.72 --> 5472.76] Some other shaving +[5472.76 --> 5473.22] product. +[5474.06 --> 5475.38] I think they're called +[5475.38 --> 5476.00] Edge. +[5476.32 --> 5476.90] I don't know. +[5477.26 --> 5478.20] It's shaving cream. +[5478.76 --> 5479.20] Anyways. +[5479.68 --> 5481.06] You get a sword, some +[5481.06 --> 5482.72] armor and an assassin's +[5482.72 --> 5483.00] hood. +[5483.30 --> 5483.56] Yeah. +[5483.90 --> 5484.18] So. +[5484.48 --> 5485.22] Okay hold on. +[5485.52 --> 5486.12] I will let you talk +[5486.12 --> 5486.54] about this. +[5487.02 --> 5487.18] Okay. +[5488.12 --> 5488.76] Hold on. +[5488.76 --> 5489.14] From it. +[5490.14 --> 5491.88] Does the style of the +[5491.88 --> 5492.78] hood make it an +[5492.78 --> 5494.44] assassin's hood or does +[5494.44 --> 5495.86] the person wearing it +[5495.86 --> 5496.92] make it an assassin's +[5496.92 --> 5497.10] hood? +[5497.60 --> 5498.42] So you could have like +[5498.42 --> 5499.76] a bonnet and it could +[5499.76 --> 5500.58] be an assassin's hood? +[5500.72 --> 5502.08] If it's being worn by +[5502.08 --> 5503.40] an assassin. +[5503.58 --> 5503.82] Right. +[5504.20 --> 5504.92] I think so yeah. +[5505.18 --> 5505.52] Whoa. +[5505.64 --> 5506.48] It should be a bonnet. +[5512.62 --> 5513.02] Anyways. +[5514.02 --> 5514.94] I don't think it's that +[5514.94 --> 5515.42] big of a deal. +[5515.60 --> 5516.86] It's just kind of funny. +[5517.08 --> 5518.08] This has happened in the +[5518.08 --> 5520.08] past so if we didn't bring +[5520.08 --> 5520.84] it up for other companies +[5520.84 --> 5522.00] we can't really like hammer +[5522.00 --> 5522.74] on them too hard. +[5523.12 --> 5524.38] But like if there's no +[5524.38 --> 5525.14] other way to get these +[5525.14 --> 5525.94] items that's kind of +[5525.94 --> 5526.26] poopy. +[5526.56 --> 5527.46] It is nice that they're +[5527.46 --> 5528.58] probably just cosmetic. +[5529.04 --> 5529.88] So it probably doesn't +[5529.88 --> 5530.40] change anything. +[5530.60 --> 5531.38] So I don't really care +[5531.38 --> 5532.22] about that too much. +[5532.74 --> 5534.02] And some people have +[5534.02 --> 5535.40] been like oh my god +[5535.40 --> 5536.04] why would they partner +[5536.04 --> 5536.90] with shaving cream that +[5536.90 --> 5537.72] has nothing to do with +[5537.72 --> 5537.98] gaming. +[5538.18 --> 5538.74] And I'm like yeah well +[5538.74 --> 5540.28] your audience is whatever +[5540.28 --> 5541.46] insanely high percentage +[5541.46 --> 5541.82] male. +[5541.82 --> 5543.46] So shaving cream +[5543.46 --> 5544.34] makes sense. +[5544.44 --> 5545.06] Are you generalizing +[5545.06 --> 5545.52] about gamers? +[5546.60 --> 5547.80] Yeah actually statistics. +[5549.76 --> 5551.12] Get wrecked. +[5552.86 --> 5554.86] So anyway on that note +[5554.86 --> 5556.06] I forget what I was +[5556.06 --> 5556.74] going to talk about but +[5556.74 --> 5557.34] I think that's pretty +[5557.34 --> 5558.14] much it for the show +[5558.14 --> 5558.42] today. +[5558.60 --> 5561.74] I enjoyed the show. +[5561.84 --> 5562.40] I hope you guys +[5562.40 --> 5563.06] enjoyed it too. +[5563.40 --> 5564.84] And part of the +[5564.84 --> 5566.04] generalizing about males +[5566.04 --> 5567.26] thing is that they +[5567.26 --> 5568.16] Yes please go on. +[5568.22 --> 5568.96] They don't have any main +[5568.96 --> 5570.22] characters that are female +[5570.22 --> 5571.40] female and that's +[5571.40 --> 5572.46] actually maybe that's +[5572.46 --> 5573.46] been brought up as a +[5573.46 --> 5573.82] problem. +[5574.82 --> 5576.28] So maybe it's Ubisoft's +[5576.28 --> 5576.44] fault. +[5576.82 --> 5577.54] What they could have +[5577.54 --> 5578.90] done is if they had at +[5578.90 --> 5580.04] least one out of the +[5580.04 --> 5581.34] four main characters as +[5581.34 --> 5582.60] a female they could have +[5582.60 --> 5583.82] had like you get +[5583.82 --> 5585.30] different items for the +[5585.30 --> 5586.18] different assassins +[5586.18 --> 5586.66] because there's the +[5586.66 --> 5587.54] four assassins right? +[5587.88 --> 5588.58] So they could have had +[5588.58 --> 5589.56] four different shaving +[5589.56 --> 5590.58] cream bottles and you +[5590.58 --> 5591.04] get like. +[5591.10 --> 5592.76] And like Yoko Ono? +[5592.76 --> 5597.08] Not Yoko because bad +[5597.08 --> 5598.10] singing talent is not +[5598.10 --> 5598.68] something that is +[5598.68 --> 5599.34] required as an +[5599.34 --> 5599.62] assassin. +[5599.76 --> 5600.32] No but she could be +[5600.32 --> 5601.20] like bad at fighting. +[5602.16 --> 5602.84] She could have like the +[5602.84 --> 5603.94] four musketeers and +[5603.94 --> 5604.44] like Yoko. +[5605.58 --> 5607.22] That that would be what +[5607.22 --> 5608.46] the female gamers want +[5608.46 --> 5608.78] to see. +[5609.16 --> 5609.98] That would be gender +[5609.98 --> 5610.52] equality. +[5610.70 --> 5611.30] I really don't. +[5611.36 --> 5611.98] Yeah I really think +[5611.98 --> 5612.78] that would go over very +[5612.78 --> 5613.08] poorly. +[5613.48 --> 5613.88] No. +[5614.44 --> 5615.26] Okay that's not how it +[5615.26 --> 5615.58] should go. +[5615.60 --> 5616.02] That would make +[5616.02 --> 5617.86] everything worse because +[5617.86 --> 5619.24] it's terrible. +[5619.24 --> 5622.68] like not because like +[5622.68 --> 5623.46] it was had well +[5623.46 --> 5624.42] intentions it's just it +[5624.42 --> 5624.96] would make everything +[5624.96 --> 5626.76] worse because it's dumb +[5626.76 --> 5627.86] and bad. +[5628.76 --> 5629.52] That would be all the +[5629.52 --> 5629.78] digging. +[5630.20 --> 5631.42] Yeah that would be a +[5631.42 --> 5632.14] terrible idea. +[5632.44 --> 5633.46] But yeah I think it +[5633.46 --> 5634.14] would make sense to say +[5634.14 --> 5634.84] if they had two male +[5634.84 --> 5635.74] assassins two female +[5635.74 --> 5636.58] assassins if they had +[5636.58 --> 5638.32] two like Edge whatever +[5638.32 --> 5639.64] male version and maybe +[5639.64 --> 5641.16] if Edge has a female +[5641.16 --> 5642.92] product I don't know I +[5642.92 --> 5643.66] don't know what Edge is. +[5643.66 --> 5644.46] Everyone's just talking +[5644.46 --> 5645.58] about Yoko Ono in the +[5645.58 --> 5646.08] chat now. +[5646.24 --> 5647.14] I still don't understand +[5647.14 --> 5648.28] how John didn't tell +[5648.28 --> 5648.74] Ono. +[5649.24 --> 5649.84] Not to shave. +[5649.96 --> 5650.60] They're feminists. +[5650.88 --> 5651.70] Oh no sorry that was +[5651.70 --> 5652.44] two different comments. +[5653.18 --> 5654.32] Didn't tell Ono to +[5654.32 --> 5655.12] stop her yelling. +[5655.94 --> 5656.96] Sorry sometimes the +[5656.96 --> 5657.92] chat moves as you're +[5657.92 --> 5659.06] reading

+[0.00 --> 16.82] Alright guys, welcome to the WAN Show. We've got our special guest Ryan Shrout with us here this week, and you may or may not have noticed that he has completely taken the place of that guy that I have evidently, once and for all, finally fired. +[17.60 --> 19.26] Finally? It's about time, right? +[19.40 --> 22.90] I know, right? He's been with me for like three years now. +[23.20 --> 24.06] That's too long. +[24.06 --> 31.66] Kind of incredible, yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's too long. I should just let everyone in my life know that I've had a relationship with for more than three years. +[31.92 --> 34.62] Like, wife, see ya. Siblings, see ya. +[35.44 --> 36.84] Eventually kids, right? +[37.06 --> 37.78] Eventually kids. +[37.78 --> 39.26] Sorry, three years, that's it. That's it. +[39.32 --> 46.74] Yeah, my son's going to make it to three in the next sort of seven months or so. Time to hit the road, kiddo. +[47.04 --> 48.20] Get a job or we're gone. +[48.20 --> 60.20] Yeah. Alright guys, so we've got a bunch of great topics for you. We are going to, I'm assuming Ryan's going to be with me on this, but maybe he's going to play devil's advocate for me over here. +[60.20 --> 68.68] But I am planning to lay into Ubisoft over the whole 30 FPS is more, yes, that's the smile I was looking for. +[68.90 --> 69.20] Yeah. +[69.70 --> 73.62] 30 FPS, so cinematic. So we are definitely going to be tackling that. +[73.90 --> 82.56] We're also going to be chatting about NVIDIA's brand new 970M and 980M mobile graphics cards that are surprisingly interesting. +[82.56 --> 91.50] I mean, usually the mobile graphics card comes out and it's kind of like, ooh, and this time around there's actually really something to say. +[92.32 --> 102.26] HP is splitting up into two companies and we've got another really good one here that I'm scrolling through this list as fast as I can to find because I can't remember what the bloody thing was. +[102.26 --> 113.20] Right. HTC launches two selfie optimized phones. So we'll have some chat and we'll definitely do some Twitter interaction on that one. Find out what you guys think of selfie phones. +[113.30 --> 115.68] But in the meantime, here's the intro. +[118.62 --> 119.70] If it ever rolls. +[121.72 --> 126.22] Oh, there's no audio again. I can never remember which one has the audio. +[126.22 --> 127.20] So I'll just sing. +[133.34 --> 140.36] You know, it's actually it's hard to talk with with my voice in my ear with a slight delay. +[140.72 --> 141.16] Yes. +[141.36 --> 142.54] It's impossible to sing. +[143.60 --> 147.10] So you get yourself back in your ear right now when you do this? +[147.34 --> 149.88] Yes, I do. Hold on. Let me just thank our show sponsors. +[149.88 --> 158.88] Our first sponsor today is Lynda.com. Visit Lynda.com slash WANshow to actually get a pretty super sweet free trial of their excellent courses. +[159.62 --> 168.88] Kind of a funny story. We had a stream that we did earlier this week where someone who actually founded a potential competitor to some of Lynda.com services +[168.88 --> 177.72] called them out by name as an excellent service for learning things, whether it's programming or digital photography or whatever else the case may be. +[177.72 --> 184.00] Our second sponsor today, and it helps if I don't lay them over top of each other like that, is Phantom Glass. +[184.44 --> 188.94] Their little tagline is the last screen protector you'll ever need. +[188.94 --> 196.34] And I totally disagree with that because you actually do need different screen protectors if you ever change your phone, +[196.52 --> 202.24] but it is the last screen protector you'll ever need for your current model of phone because it's made of Gorilla Glass 3, +[202.50 --> 206.30] just like the screen of your phone probably is if you've got a good quality phone. +[206.40 --> 207.92] It's extremely difficult to scratch. +[208.26 --> 216.84] It's oleophobic and it uses a fantastic like nano BS thing that they got going on there to somehow be completely bubble free. +[216.94 --> 217.66] Very cool stuff. +[217.66 --> 223.32] So I think that's pretty much it for all that me doing nothing but talking constantly. +[223.32 --> 231.78] Why don't we jump right into Assassin's Creed Dev thinks the industry is dropping the 60 FPS standard. +[231.90 --> 237.36] This was posted on the forum by The Crazed Child and there's actually, there's a couple good articles. +[237.58 --> 240.32] There's one from TechRadar.com, there's one from GameSpot. +[240.60 --> 246.32] I'm just going to pop these up here so you guys can have a look while Ryan gives his thoughts. +[246.32 --> 247.92] Is 30 FPS enough? +[248.00 --> 249.12] Is it more cinematic, Ryan? +[249.48 --> 256.92] No, that's pretty much a crap excuse for not being able to render at 60 frames per second, obviously. +[257.16 --> 261.76] I mean, if you really wanted to make it cinematic, you'd just drop it all the way down to 24 frames per second, right? +[261.84 --> 266.24] Like if you're going to claim that's the reason, then go ahead and do it all the way. +[266.70 --> 267.16] Damn it, Ryan. +[267.16 --> 273.48] Take your logic and go back to the Midwest or Mideast or wherever it is you live. +[273.68 --> 274.28] That's pretty close. +[274.38 --> 275.20] It's close enough. +[275.32 --> 283.44] I mean, anybody who has actually used a machine that's locked at 30 and used a machine that's locked at 60 frames per second can easily tell the difference. +[283.68 --> 287.14] Like that is not a debate really anymore. +[287.14 --> 292.96] And to have a developer of a major game kind of come out and say, oh, we don't really think it's important. +[293.16 --> 294.12] What's the exact quote here? +[294.16 --> 298.28] You don't gain that much from 60 frames per second and it doesn't look like the real thing. +[298.40 --> 300.30] It's a bit like the Hobbit movie. +[300.78 --> 302.24] That's crazy. +[302.82 --> 304.10] That's painful. +[304.66 --> 305.42] I mean, okay. +[305.82 --> 310.96] The thing about the whole cinematic look argument is one, there's motion blur. +[310.96 --> 311.40] Okay. +[311.46 --> 320.96] And this is something that I think a lot of people either don't understand or do understand and hope that other people don't understand. +[322.22 --> 324.42] Because if you want to, okay. +[324.54 --> 329.96] So motion blur is a natural effect of the iris of a camera opening and closing. +[330.48 --> 332.66] Iris or shutter or whatever it is you want to call it. +[333.18 --> 337.64] And what happens with games is there is no iris. +[338.00 --> 339.16] There is no camera. +[339.16 --> 341.06] There is no natural motion blur. +[341.42 --> 351.16] Now, the thing is if you have enough GPU horsepower, you can actually add FACO motion blur after the fact to the game if you really want that cinematic look. +[351.60 --> 357.50] But dropping the frame rate isn't the answer because unless you have motion blur, you're not getting any of that effect. +[357.78 --> 363.68] And even if you do have some at a lower frame rate, you're getting, like I said, a cheapo after the fact effect. +[363.90 --> 366.86] Not proper motion blur that makes it look properly smooth. +[366.86 --> 367.42] Yeah. +[367.42 --> 367.48] Yeah. +[367.62 --> 382.12] And you got to think like all these TVs and all these displays are being built for lower persistence, you know, which takes away some of that inherent blurring effect that would be native with some of these displays and monitors, right? +[382.12 --> 383.84] Or TVs, whatever you happen to be playing it on. +[383.84 --> 386.90] And so it just – it doesn't make any sense to me. +[386.90 --> 399.22] Like the whole debate of why is it running at 900p or 1600 by 900 on both consoles and then, oh, yeah, it's also going to run at 30 frames per second because of it. +[399.22 --> 404.80] Like 60 isn't good for a shooter or whatever this bull crap they're talking about is. +[405.36 --> 406.48] I mean it just doesn't make any sense. +[406.72 --> 415.14] Like everybody who is a PC gamer who's looked at this quote or reads this quote, they all aim for above 60. +[415.24 --> 416.86] And it's not because we're all crazy. +[416.86 --> 421.00] It's because there's actually valid reasons to want to run at higher frame rates. +[421.00 --> 422.88] So I don't know. +[423.18 --> 426.90] People – and the thing is like this game is coming out on the PC. +[427.64 --> 430.08] So are they going to lock it at 30 frames per second on the PC? +[430.40 --> 430.90] I bet they don't. +[430.92 --> 431.76] For a better experience? +[431.98 --> 432.66] I bet they don't. +[432.72 --> 439.34] I bet if NVIDIA has their say because it's a GameWorks title, it will definitely not be locked at 30 frames per second. +[440.02 --> 447.12] Can you imagine NVIDIA putting GameWorks and like way it's meant to be played in front of a 30 FPS launch title? +[447.12 --> 451.24] That would be – now that would be worth controversy and discussion, right? +[451.40 --> 454.48] So, you know, it's limitations of the consoles. +[454.74 --> 456.62] That's why it's going at 30 frames per second. +[457.04 --> 469.64] So speaking of the – okay, speaking of the controversy and how – I mean you just sound exasperated just talking about this topic because we've been around and around and around again. +[469.94 --> 476.18] Why is Linus making me talk about this stupid damn non-debate that has nothing to do with reality at all? +[476.18 --> 480.72] And the answer is because Ubisoft keeps on digging. +[480.98 --> 487.58] Why don't they just tell their devs to shut the hell up and let this thing kind of settle a little bit? +[487.74 --> 488.44] What are they doing? +[488.96 --> 492.96] There are plenty of console games that are locked at 30, okay? +[493.12 --> 498.02] And there are reasons for it because they don't want to drop visual fidelity in order to get to 60 frames per second. +[498.02 --> 503.00] And on a TV and on a console where you're kind of – you know, you don't want to have V-Sync issues. +[503.12 --> 506.96] You either have to run at 30 or you have to run at 60 and anything in between that is a really big problem. +[507.54 --> 510.18] So there are games that run at 30 and it's fine. +[510.38 --> 515.86] They're not great experiences but they also don't come out and say, well, 30 is really what we targeted because it's not. +[516.26 --> 517.34] Nobody targets 30. +[517.80 --> 518.12] Right. +[518.12 --> 521.54] No, it's absolutely ridiculous. +[522.68 --> 528.88] People are telling me that the audio might be out of sync which is very, very strange. +[529.68 --> 530.46] Oh, no. +[530.58 --> 532.82] I've got other people saying it's just fine. +[533.04 --> 535.66] So I think it might be a – yeah. +[536.16 --> 537.86] I think it might be a bit of an issue. +[538.22 --> 540.08] Apparently there's a very slight delay on source. +[540.08 --> 544.88] So you guys might want to turn yourselves down to something else if you're having a little bit of trouble. +[545.82 --> 546.70] So, yeah. +[546.70 --> 548.30] If it's just me, let me know. +[548.78 --> 549.00] Yeah. +[549.10 --> 550.12] No, I've got a lot of people – +[550.12 --> 550.66] What do I can do about it? +[551.00 --> 552.28] Got a lot of people saying it's fine. +[552.58 --> 552.78] Okay. +[552.78 --> 554.68] So I'm not going to can the stream now. +[554.80 --> 555.12] All right. +[555.58 --> 559.18] So I guess I'll just see if there's anything else here that we didn't mention. +[559.44 --> 565.78] Like, yes, I'm extremely disappointed that the upcoming Assassin's Creed is going to run at 900p. +[565.78 --> 576.46] Although 900p I find is less of an issue for me than 30fps because, frankly, I didn't notice that much of a difference with – +[576.46 --> 579.20] I think it was Battlefield 4. +[579.72 --> 580.16] No, no. +[580.22 --> 586.44] I think it was the last Assassin's Creed that launched at 900p on PS4 then got a patch almost immediately to 1080p. +[587.52 --> 592.46] Didn't really notice the difference compared to 720p, but 30fps really is very noticeable. +[592.46 --> 598.46] And Ubisoft needs to just stop talking immediately about this. +[600.08 --> 607.40] On that note, the Halo 2 Anniversary Edition campaign also will not be running in 1080p. +[607.86 --> 612.04] It's going to run at 1328 by 1080 60fps. +[612.04 --> 619.66] So, Ryan, given that the technological constraints here are that they appear to have to run both games – +[619.66 --> 624.92] or both sound and physics engines simultaneously, do you think this is an okay compromise, +[625.52 --> 630.16] killing some horizontal resolution for the sake of 60fps? +[630.70 --> 633.64] So they're taking away horizontal resolution. +[633.64 --> 638.36] I'd like to see what that looks like visually, I guess. +[638.48 --> 642.54] How much of a theater effect are you getting on either side? +[643.32 --> 645.38] I mean, I don't know. +[645.76 --> 646.16] Probably. +[646.50 --> 648.46] I mean, so this is the Halo 2 Anniversary. +[649.48 --> 649.88] Yeah. +[650.48 --> 651.02] I don't know. +[651.12 --> 654.12] I think maybe you give the consumer an option. +[654.12 --> 658.16] So they're rendering both in the background so you can do what they did with the first one, +[658.24 --> 662.54] which is where you have that one-button push to swap between them, right, which was a really cool effect. +[663.00 --> 667.94] But if it's accounting for that performance issue, then I'd rather just say, +[668.04 --> 673.58] hey, don't bother rendering the other physics, other graphics, other audio in the background. +[673.58 --> 682.08] Just let me actually run at 19 by 10 because, I mean, it's kind of embarrassing that the Xbox One won't be able to run Halo 2 at 1080p, +[682.86 --> 685.04] regardless of what the reason is. +[685.22 --> 687.68] You would think they would be able to get that full resolution out of that. +[687.98 --> 690.14] You would think that, wouldn't you? +[692.02 --> 693.40] Silly Ryan Trout. +[693.76 --> 699.68] I mean, here I am looking at things like graphics performance and gigaflops and realizing that, +[699.68 --> 703.56] hey, maybe you made the wrong decisions on these consoles, as it turns out. +[704.18 --> 706.52] Maybe you should have spent a little bit more money on hardware. +[707.76 --> 714.50] And, you know, I've got to wonder if they spent less money on hardware because they knew it was going to be a short life cycle, +[714.64 --> 720.64] or if we're going to end up with a short life cycle because they realized after the fact that they didn't spend enough money on hardware. +[720.98 --> 725.62] And then the truly baffling thing about it is that Microsoft and Sony, at exactly the same time, +[725.92 --> 729.58] spent not enough money on hardware in pretty much exactly the same way. +[730.24 --> 730.40] Yep. +[731.90 --> 733.32] I guess that's all there is to say, isn't there? +[733.32 --> 739.72] Yeah, I mean, they both did it, and, you know, you can't blame AMD. +[739.90 --> 742.32] AMD just built what they asked for, right? +[742.42 --> 745.20] But they could have asked for more hardware, both companies. +[745.68 --> 745.86] Yep. +[747.28 --> 752.56] I think I had something else to say about that, but I guess that's pretty much all there is to it. +[752.56 --> 759.52] I mean, one thing that they said was that they were running at 720p and everything was fine, 720p, 60fps. +[760.06 --> 765.40] They wanted to push it further, so, you know, they managed to get to 1328x1080. +[765.40 --> 775.12] But would you rather than running an upscaled resolution be given the option to run a native resolution, even if it's a lower one? +[775.12 --> 778.34] Yeah, I think so. +[778.34 --> 783.02] I'm curious how you upscale 1328x1080. +[783.02 --> 791.20] Like, I don't really understand how you would be able to do that, you know, algorithmically, I guess. +[791.20 --> 796.08] Because you're simply just cutting off sides of the window, right? +[796.16 --> 805.58] So if they were rendering at 1328x852 or something odd like that that was of the same aspect ratio, then I might believe that they'd be able to upscale it well. +[805.68 --> 809.44] As it is now, I feel like they're just going to have black bars on the side, but surely you wouldn't do that. +[809.94 --> 811.50] No, that's not what they're doing. +[811.70 --> 813.04] They were really clear about that. +[813.14 --> 815.50] It will definitely be some kind of an upscaling. +[816.88 --> 817.18] Huh. +[817.70 --> 819.16] Whatever that ends up looking like. +[819.16 --> 821.58] Hopefully not just zooming in or something either. +[821.72 --> 822.14] I don't know. +[822.62 --> 831.64] It might be worthwhile to do a, like, actually, it might be worthwhile to check out this game, do some capture of it, and have a look at it. +[831.68 --> 836.92] I mean, it'd be convenient if we actually got a PC version of the game so that we could really compare it against something meaningful. +[837.38 --> 839.18] Weren't there rumors that that was going to happen? +[839.74 --> 840.18] Rumors? +[840.44 --> 846.98] I don't think there's anything confirmed yet, but Twitch chat is pretty great about correcting me about these things. +[846.98 --> 849.66] If I ever get anything wrong. +[849.86 --> 851.30] The chat rooms are great for that, aren't they? +[851.48 --> 852.44] Yeah, they really are. +[853.16 --> 862.32] Speaking of the chat, they've been giving me a really hard time about launching right into the show and not explaining who the hell you are and not explaining where the hell Luke is. +[862.32 --> 864.14] So I'll do both of those things. +[864.22 --> 870.66] Guys, Luke has taken his first decent vacation pretty much since he started working with me. +[871.00 --> 872.94] So he and I went over to Germany. +[873.16 --> 878.56] I was actually there and back in just over four days' worth of hours. +[878.56 --> 883.14] But Luke and Brandon both decided to stick around. +[883.28 --> 887.34] So we toured the Cherry Tour, you know, the guys that make mechanical keyboard switches. +[887.76 --> 891.20] And we toured the Sennheiser, did I say toured the Cherry Tour factory? +[891.54 --> 894.08] And we toured the Sennheiser factory as well. +[894.40 --> 904.34] We actually did, oh man, we got a really great opportunity to film the assembly process station by station of the HD800 headphones. +[904.34 --> 907.30] And Brandon got some amazing footage of it. +[907.34 --> 908.54] We are going to bring that to you guys. +[908.68 --> 922.36] Everything from just stamping out diaphragms all the way to putting it onto artificial ears and then like an artificial head going on a track into a noise isolated chamber. +[922.94 --> 925.14] Where it, yeah, no, it's freaking amazing. +[925.28 --> 930.52] Where they test every single unit and then record the response curve. +[930.90 --> 931.68] Really, really cool. +[931.78 --> 933.12] We're going to bring all that content to you guys. +[933.12 --> 937.92] But I jetted back here and Luke is sticking around in Germany for a week and a half. +[938.04 --> 939.78] And Brandon's with him for a week as well. +[939.88 --> 943.78] So I am on my own for a couple weeks' worth of WAN show. +[943.94 --> 947.00] So that leads us to this poor substitute for Luke. +[947.30 --> 949.54] This is Ryan Trout from PC Perspective. +[949.56 --> 953.76] Maybe you want to introduce yourself here because I'm clearly not doing a great job for you. +[954.24 --> 959.38] The poor substitute is owner-operator at PC Perspective, PCPer.com. +[959.38 --> 965.02] And basically I review PC hardware for a living and I have for the last, God, 15 years. +[965.34 --> 965.74] Oh, God. +[965.88 --> 966.24] Competitor. +[966.34 --> 966.80] Get rid of him. +[967.00 --> 967.14] Yeah. +[967.28 --> 967.66] Click. +[967.76 --> 968.06] Hang up. +[968.14 --> 968.36] Hang up. +[968.42 --> 968.68] Hang up. +[968.68 --> 972.36] So the website has been around forever. +[972.48 --> 977.28] We used to cover just AMD hardware until like 2004-ish or something. +[977.40 --> 977.54] Yeah. +[977.60 --> 979.18] We were AMDMD.com. +[979.98 --> 981.98] Focused on like AMD processors and motherboards. +[983.02 --> 983.74] I didn't even know that. +[984.06 --> 985.02] That was before my time. +[985.16 --> 987.14] I always knew you as PC Perspective. +[987.32 --> 987.46] Yeah. +[987.46 --> 989.58] 2004, we launched as PC Perspective. +[989.64 --> 994.74] Basically, I graduated college and I said, all right, if I'm going to actually make this a job, let's try to make this a job. +[994.94 --> 1000.02] So I've been doing that since then and we've got a good team of people that do good work. +[1000.26 --> 1004.10] And I'm practically family with Linus now. +[1004.28 --> 1010.32] I mean, we've hula-hooped together and also done the limbo together. +[1010.32 --> 1012.86] So it's like a bonding thing that we did. +[1013.24 --> 1015.44] So that's what I do. +[1015.66 --> 1016.58] We test hardware. +[1016.84 --> 1019.80] Graphics cards, processors, SSDs, all that random crap. +[1021.28 --> 1022.44] So, yeah. +[1022.60 --> 1027.24] I mean, I guess the thing, the way that I would, I made that joke about us being competitors before. +[1027.38 --> 1027.96] We're not really. +[1028.18 --> 1029.32] I mean, Ryan has a podcast. +[1029.64 --> 1030.38] I have a podcast. +[1031.10 --> 1032.18] Ryan makes videos. +[1032.34 --> 1033.14] I make videos. +[1033.82 --> 1034.24] Okay. +[1034.28 --> 1035.08] Hold on a second here. +[1035.38 --> 1035.56] No. +[1035.64 --> 1035.80] Okay. +[1035.80 --> 1050.42] The main difference is that Ryan's going to get more nuts and bolts into if you actually want to know how the SMs within an NVIDIA GPU work and how that impacts the way that it's going to perform in this game versus that game or with this setting dialed up versus that setting up. +[1050.80 --> 1054.72] Ryan gets really nitty gritty into the details with those kinds of technologies. +[1054.94 --> 1061.86] Whereas I see ourselves as more of a general overview style of content. +[1061.86 --> 1067.62] So it's just different strokes for different folks and the one thing that we definitely know is that stroking is good. +[1068.26 --> 1069.72] So let's go. +[1071.44 --> 1074.04] Yeah, you pretend you don't know what I'm talking about over there. +[1074.28 --> 1075.26] Like a monkey. +[1075.70 --> 1081.86] So speaking of getting into nuts and bolts, this was originally posted on the Linus Tech Tips forum by Wordo165. +[1082.76 --> 1083.40] Thanks, Wordo. +[1083.48 --> 1084.30] You get a shout out. +[1084.44 --> 1091.02] Guys, make sure you're posting all the latest awesome news in the Linus Tech Tips forum after, of course, searching to make sure no one's already posted it. +[1091.02 --> 1093.08] Because you will get shout outs on the show. +[1093.66 --> 1096.44] And there are articles all over the place about this. +[1096.48 --> 1097.76] Of course, PC perspective. +[1097.98 --> 1099.28] You guys have covered them. +[1099.40 --> 1100.02] Sorry, I haven't. +[1100.06 --> 1100.82] I've been traveling. +[1100.96 --> 1101.70] I haven't looked at your site. +[1102.46 --> 1102.52] Yeah. +[1102.70 --> 1103.22] For which? +[1103.38 --> 1105.84] This MSI graphics? +[1105.84 --> 1106.18] Do you have one? +[1106.54 --> 1108.76] I think I have the one that they're talking about here. +[1108.88 --> 1109.10] Is this? +[1109.24 --> 1109.68] Oh, no. +[1109.86 --> 1111.34] Sorry, I jumped to the next topic. +[1112.16 --> 1113.58] 980M and 970M. +[1113.60 --> 1114.02] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1114.02 --> 1115.12] I actually have one of those sitting here, too. +[1115.54 --> 1115.84] Okay. +[1116.62 --> 1116.94] Awesome. +[1117.68 --> 1118.38] Which one's that? +[1118.38 --> 1120.38] Oh, you got the, oh, that's the MSI. +[1120.38 --> 1121.18] GT72. +[1121.66 --> 1122.90] I don't have one of those. +[1123.18 --> 1128.06] I've got an Aorus X7 Pro, and then I've got the G751 from Asus. +[1128.30 --> 1128.48] Yep. +[1128.94 --> 1132.52] So the X7 Pro is one impressive piece of machinery. +[1132.74 --> 1134.44] Dual 970Ms and SLI. +[1135.66 --> 1135.94] Nice. +[1136.06 --> 1136.36] Nice. +[1136.78 --> 1140.50] I mean, this is kind of the more traditional single GPU variant of it. +[1141.06 --> 1142.60] It's actually, it's a big machine. +[1142.70 --> 1144.68] It's a 17.3-inch machine. +[1144.68 --> 1146.22] But it's not very heavy. +[1146.36 --> 1149.60] Like, you can tell it's not overly bogged down by heat sinks. +[1150.30 --> 1155.14] Yeah, that's the one MSI is using the magnesium alloy shell on, right? +[1155.22 --> 1155.60] Oh, okay. +[1155.72 --> 1156.62] Yeah, I think it is. +[1156.68 --> 1156.86] Yeah. +[1157.12 --> 1158.54] We just got it in a couple days ago. +[1158.54 --> 1162.06] So, but it's been pretty impressive performance-wise. +[1162.26 --> 1163.58] So let's talk about it. +[1163.70 --> 1168.24] So GTX 980M and 970M, NVIDIA is touting them. +[1168.30 --> 1170.80] They had this wonderful graph at the editor's day. +[1171.20 --> 1180.08] And NVIDIA is touting them as the closest mobile variants to their equivalent desktop variants ever. +[1180.08 --> 1186.20] And would you say from your testing that that is a valid statement from NVIDIA? +[1186.88 --> 1187.82] I think it is. +[1187.98 --> 1194.16] I think that graphic they showed is maybe a little bit skewed just because... +[1194.16 --> 1194.76] Is it ever not? +[1195.06 --> 1195.92] Well, exactly. +[1196.10 --> 1200.08] But it's a little bit closer together on that graph than it actually turns out to be. +[1200.28 --> 1200.88] I mean, don't get me wrong. +[1200.94 --> 1205.74] The 980M is still an awesome part, especially considering, you know, its power efficiency. +[1205.86 --> 1207.26] That's what makes it great in laptops. +[1207.26 --> 1210.30] But it's, I mean, there's still definitely a gap. +[1210.60 --> 1215.76] Like the GTX 970 desktop is faster than the GTX 980M mobile, right? +[1215.82 --> 1222.94] So, of course, that means that there's going to be a 15, 20, 25% gap between the 980M and the 980 itself. +[1223.16 --> 1229.96] So, I mean, it's still really good, but it's not, it's, you know, their naming scheme still throws it off some. +[1230.30 --> 1234.80] That, and I think part of the issue for NVIDIA is that whenever they compare anything, +[1234.80 --> 1239.30] they're going to be using a reference 970M, which is a part that doesn't exist. +[1239.94 --> 1245.44] So, the only 970 that I was, or, sorry, 970M, a reference 970. +[1245.82 --> 1246.92] This is so confusing. +[1247.24 --> 1252.54] The only 970s that I'm aware of are aftermarket ones, most of which are overclocked. +[1252.54 --> 1258.44] And the way that GPU Boost 2.0 works is even if you were to underclock your card to a reference clock speed, +[1258.58 --> 1262.54] that card might still overclock itself to something that a reference card wouldn't have achieved. +[1262.86 --> 1267.48] So, it makes comparing 970M, which could also be a non-reference design, +[1267.56 --> 1273.28] because to my knowledge, board partners or notebook partners are able to kind of play around with settings there. +[1273.28 --> 1277.12] So, comparing one thing that's non-reference to another thing that's non-reference, +[1277.56 --> 1281.16] compared to NVIDIA's graph, which is reference to reference, I mean, who even knows what's going on? +[1281.50 --> 1285.32] Yeah, it's interesting, because if you look through all that information on the mobile parts, +[1285.44 --> 1286.78] they never give you a TDP. +[1287.50 --> 1288.18] I saw that. +[1288.74 --> 1291.58] And the reason is, it's not that they don't have a number. +[1291.58 --> 1299.96] However, it is that each notebook, like the GT72 or the Asus machine that you have, +[1300.28 --> 1306.74] like, they're allowed to tweak those clock speeds individually to make sure they're within the thermal envelope +[1306.74 --> 1310.74] of whatever, you know, heat sink and fan combination they're using in the laptop. +[1310.94 --> 1317.30] So, there's really not a reference clock speed for the mobile parts like there is on the desktop parts, +[1317.68 --> 1320.04] because it is kind of a case-by-case basis. +[1320.04 --> 1323.48] So, I think you'll see different clocks throughout the notebooks. +[1324.40 --> 1328.14] I mean, that was the other thing I noticed, was that they only specify a base clock. +[1328.50 --> 1330.56] They actually don't have a boost clock in the spec. +[1330.64 --> 1333.86] It just says, base clock is this, plus, quote-unquote, boost. +[1334.44 --> 1335.88] And that's all we really know about it. +[1336.12 --> 1340.04] Yeah, you've got to open up something like GPU-Z, or something that will give you what it is, +[1340.14 --> 1344.68] what the firmware of the GPU is actually set at for its typical boost. +[1344.76 --> 1346.84] But again, you've been doing this long enough, +[1346.84 --> 1352.26] the typical boost does not really tell you what the boost clock is going to be at anyway, right? +[1352.26 --> 1357.06] It just gives you some minimum that it won't go below, unless of special cases, right? +[1357.06 --> 1358.48] It's all very complicated. +[1359.08 --> 1361.84] Yeah, unless of special cases, in which case it will go below. +[1362.06 --> 1362.30] Yeah. +[1362.68 --> 1366.00] And then we don't know really anything of what's going on, unfortunately. +[1366.00 --> 1367.82] And then we have that thing called the base clock. +[1367.92 --> 1369.16] So that's actually what we mean. +[1369.46 --> 1373.64] So, but I have to say, so we ran a bunch of benchmarks. +[1373.74 --> 1375.34] The article's not up yet on the website. +[1375.34 --> 1380.48] But the GT72 with that 980M is at the wall. +[1380.60 --> 1384.72] I think we're pulling like 200 to 210 watts with the AC plugged in. +[1385.36 --> 1389.16] And that's not a lot of power, considering using a quad-core hyper-threaded part. +[1389.58 --> 1392.68] You've got a 980M running at probably 1.1 gigahertz +[1392.68 --> 1395.46] at its typical type of clock speed that it's running at. +[1395.80 --> 1397.38] And it's got a 1080p screen. +[1397.70 --> 1400.86] And there's basically no game that maybe, +[1401.02 --> 1402.62] except for Crysis 3 at its top settings, +[1402.62 --> 1406.54] that can really make it, you know, work overboard to render at 1080p. +[1406.70 --> 1408.38] So it's actually pretty impressive. +[1408.50 --> 1410.12] And the fans don't get super loud. +[1410.36 --> 1414.14] And it's a pretty good mobile gaming experience, I think, so far. +[1414.36 --> 1416.72] Now, speaking of the mobile gaming experience, +[1416.96 --> 1419.80] is this a bit of a strange trend to you? +[1419.80 --> 1422.88] I've noticed that for all of a sudden, +[1423.14 --> 1426.32] we were seeing 3K and 4K notebook displays. +[1426.88 --> 1432.06] And we were getting 860Ms or, in some cases, 870Ms +[1432.06 --> 1435.26] in the case of stuff like the ARS-X3 or the Razer Blade. +[1435.94 --> 1437.30] And then all of a sudden, +[1437.48 --> 1441.84] we get these super powerful GPUs in the 970M and the 980M +[1441.84 --> 1444.58] that could really drive a 3K display properly. +[1444.58 --> 1447.98] And it seems like everyone, all at the same time, +[1448.24 --> 1451.60] met in a back room somewhere and decided to bail and go back to 1080p. +[1451.66 --> 1452.36] What the heck happened? +[1452.80 --> 1455.60] I think the reality is, +[1455.64 --> 1459.50] is neither the 980M or the 970M could really push a 3K display. +[1459.86 --> 1461.48] Okay, not in Crysis 3, +[1461.78 --> 1465.30] but Shadow of Mordor, high details, maybe not max. +[1465.50 --> 1467.00] Maybe, maybe you'd be able to. +[1467.06 --> 1470.20] And I think that's what, you know, from NVIDIA's point of view, +[1470.28 --> 1471.72] they want to be able to say, +[1471.72 --> 1474.18] max out everything on this laptop, right? +[1474.42 --> 1476.84] And so 1080p is the right resolution for that. +[1476.90 --> 1480.36] And again, you're talking about a 17-inch screen +[1480.36 --> 1483.56] that is a little bit further away from you, maybe. +[1483.86 --> 1485.56] And so 1080p just kind of makes sense. +[1485.64 --> 1487.98] Now, you could hook it up to an external display, which we did. +[1489.16 --> 1491.06] This has DisplayPort connections on it. +[1491.32 --> 1495.84] We hooked up that ASUS Swift G-Sync monitor, and it works, right? +[1495.84 --> 1499.00] So if you want to use an external display for higher resolutions, you can. +[1499.00 --> 1500.92] But I just, I don't know. +[1501.00 --> 1506.32] I didn't see the benefit of those ultra-high resolution notebooks, really, +[1506.42 --> 1509.04] because in Windows, it's not very useful, +[1509.04 --> 1511.98] because you've got to turn up the scaling to a certain amount +[1511.98 --> 1514.86] so that your icons and your text is actually readable. +[1515.24 --> 1518.20] And then in games, you know, +[1518.46 --> 1526.40] when your native resolution is 25 by 14 or 32 by 16 or whatever it was. +[1526.40 --> 1527.58] Whatever that one works out to. +[1527.60 --> 1529.88] Yeah, and you downscale it to 1080p. +[1529.96 --> 1533.08] It's not going to look as sharp as if it were running on a native 1080p screen. +[1533.24 --> 1534.96] So I'm sure we'll see those. +[1535.18 --> 1538.28] And something like a machine that has 2980Ms in it +[1538.28 --> 1540.06] would be kind of the perfect candidate for that. +[1540.56 --> 1546.68] Yeah, a 2.5K display with 2980Ms is probably an excellent sweet spot. +[1547.12 --> 1549.78] I mean, I guess the thing, it just baffles me +[1549.78 --> 1553.20] that we get these underpowered notebooks with these high-resolution displays, +[1553.20 --> 1557.10] and then we get these overpowered notebooks with probably the right display, +[1557.30 --> 1560.38] even though, really, that's not NVIDIA's messaging about it at all. +[1560.50 --> 1566.82] I mean, their slide deck is that 900 Series M is suitable for 1440p. +[1567.28 --> 1570.84] But I think that the actual designs coming out +[1570.84 --> 1573.12] reflect the true reality of what's going on. +[1573.24 --> 1576.82] And, I mean, you've played around with dynamic super resolution, correct? +[1577.20 --> 1577.40] Mm-hmm. +[1577.40 --> 1581.54] So do you think that dynamic super resolution is a good balance +[1581.54 --> 1583.36] then if you're going to have a 1080p display +[1583.36 --> 1586.10] and you just take more samples on a notebook? +[1586.48 --> 1586.66] Yep. +[1586.72 --> 1591.30] We ran the Dark Souls 2 demonstration portion or whatever +[1591.30 --> 1594.56] on this MSI laptop using DSR, and it looks great. +[1594.68 --> 1596.38] Skyrim with DSR looks great. +[1596.88 --> 1599.66] So if there are games where you have that capability +[1599.66 --> 1601.70] to run at higher resolution, you can still do that +[1601.70 --> 1603.90] and take advantage of it on the 1080p display. +[1603.90 --> 1609.02] It is kind of a really nice, almost perfect setup for that, right? +[1609.14 --> 1612.56] So if you've got more horsepower, downsample. +[1612.56 --> 1612.80] Great. +[1612.94 --> 1614.44] Render it 4K, downsample. +[1614.52 --> 1617.36] If you don't, then you've got a native 1080p display for it, +[1617.76 --> 1619.08] and it works out pretty well. +[1620.20 --> 1622.84] So I guess that's pretty much all there is to say about them. +[1623.00 --> 1624.14] They're power efficient. +[1624.42 --> 1627.38] They support all the same features as the desktop ones. +[1627.66 --> 1631.28] I think the only really disappointing thing about it for me +[1631.28 --> 1635.02] is that I feel like a lot of the talk about, +[1635.46 --> 1638.36] oh, you know, the desktop and mobile are getting much closer +[1638.36 --> 1639.88] is spin. +[1640.46 --> 1645.02] Because I really feel like the desktop could have been further ahead +[1645.02 --> 1648.36] if NVIDIA hadn't started back with the GTX 680. +[1648.36 --> 1653.48] NVIDIA started kind of releasing their mid-tier chip as a flagship +[1653.48 --> 1657.02] and then their true flagship as the next generation flagship +[1657.02 --> 1661.70] and now extended this pattern where we're not getting full-on Maxwell, +[1662.04 --> 1664.62] but it's being sold to us as a top-tier chip. +[1664.70 --> 1668.04] So NVIDIA is effectively getting two gens out of each architecture +[1668.04 --> 1669.56] in terms of the numbering scheme. +[1669.56 --> 1673.32] When we used to get a full new series of cards with a full new architecture +[1673.32 --> 1676.40] or at the very least a die shrink each time they said +[1676.40 --> 1678.14] that they were releasing something new to us. +[1678.36 --> 1682.40] Yeah, I mean, that's definitely the case, but it's... +[1682.40 --> 1683.96] I don't think they have a choice. +[1684.18 --> 1687.46] Yeah, it's a result of the manufacturing process issues that are there, right? +[1688.16 --> 1690.10] It's, well, we're stuck on 28 anameter. +[1690.16 --> 1690.82] What can we do? +[1690.90 --> 1695.90] And also keep in mind that Maxwell is aimed at power efficiency, right? +[1695.90 --> 1700.18] Like that design was really aimed at getting the most performance per watt. +[1700.18 --> 1703.94] And when you can do that, by definition, right, +[1703.98 --> 1706.26] because of the way physics works, you know, +[1706.68 --> 1710.22] your GPU on your notebook and on your desktop are going to compress. +[1710.30 --> 1711.34] They're going to get a little bit better, right? +[1711.36 --> 1715.48] Because that sweet spot for performance for the 980 is 165 watts, +[1715.84 --> 1720.44] where for the 980m, it's like 120 watts or whatever it actually is. +[1720.80 --> 1727.54] So whereas on the GTX 680, it was 210 watts versus 110 watts. +[1727.54 --> 1732.42] So it's getting closer, but I think it's not nearly as close +[1732.42 --> 1736.52] as they would like you to believe based on their fantasy marketing graphs. +[1736.70 --> 1741.38] I mean, I did find some games where it was only a 10-15% delta, +[1741.66 --> 1743.50] but these were situations like Tomb Raider, +[1743.64 --> 1747.96] where I really wasn't that limited by the GPU itself. +[1748.00 --> 1749.84] I was more limited by the CPU, +[1750.06 --> 1752.06] because they were both running the game incredibly well, +[1752.10 --> 1753.10] even at ultra details. +[1753.10 --> 1757.90] Whereas in games like Crysis 3, I was seeing as much as a 40% delta +[1757.90 --> 1759.82] between the 970 and the 970m. +[1760.96 --> 1763.02] Yeah, there's going to be those. +[1763.24 --> 1765.94] And I think, you know, if you look at just the specs, +[1766.36 --> 1773.66] the 980m has fewer shaders than the 970 desktop part does. +[1773.76 --> 1773.92] Yeah. +[1774.18 --> 1774.34] Right. +[1774.40 --> 1776.20] And the memory clock runs significantly lower, +[1776.50 --> 1778.40] 5 gigahertz instead of 7 gigahertz. +[1778.40 --> 1782.56] So fundamentally, there is going to be a difference there. +[1782.62 --> 1787.46] So I think the closest analog to the 980m is probably the 970 desktop. +[1788.10 --> 1793.82] And it's kind of between the 680, well, we'll say the 770 and the 970. +[1793.96 --> 1795.30] It's kind of where performance sits there. +[1796.26 --> 1796.90] All right. +[1796.94 --> 1799.50] So let's talk about the new Unreal Engine +[1799.50 --> 1802.22] bringing eerily realistic skin to your games. +[1802.36 --> 1805.68] Does eerily realistic skin even sound like something we want? +[1805.98 --> 1807.20] No, not me personally. +[1807.20 --> 1809.60] Ethnod posts this on the forum. +[1809.74 --> 1810.40] Thanks for that. +[1810.86 --> 1814.88] And the original article is either from Engadget or UnrealEngine.com +[1814.88 --> 1817.12] if you prefer to get it straight from the horse's mouth. +[1817.90 --> 1823.44] And basically, Ryan, do you want to explain what subsurface scattering is exactly +[1823.44 --> 1827.20] and how that makes things like skin or candles, +[1827.46 --> 1829.92] especially any objects that are slightly translucent, +[1830.34 --> 1831.98] look more realistic in games? +[1831.98 --> 1837.90] So, I mean, subsurface scattering is not – I don't think it's a graphics rendering specific term. +[1837.98 --> 1842.36] But the idea is pretty simple where you have a semi-translucent layer, +[1842.86 --> 1844.86] in this case your skin, right? +[1844.94 --> 1848.58] And the light will penetrate one or more layers of the skin +[1848.58 --> 1851.24] and then bounce out in a different way, right? +[1851.24 --> 1856.48] So you may have some portion of that light going – hitting your skin and bouncing back. +[1856.56 --> 1859.78] You may have some portion of the light going a couple of layers deep and bouncing out. +[1859.84 --> 1866.44] And the result is a different kind of shade or look or style to how skin actually looks. +[1866.48 --> 1869.52] And it's something that we're used to seeing every day. +[1869.52 --> 1873.84] When we're sitting here recording a video and you just look at yourself on the camera +[1873.84 --> 1876.86] and you see a little bit of sheen on that part of your forehead there, +[1877.02 --> 1885.14] that is something that is very hard to render accurately and do it in a fast, real-time method. +[1885.54 --> 1889.20] So Unreal Engine, what is it, the 4.5 update? +[1889.34 --> 1890.00] 4.5, yeah. +[1890.50 --> 1894.30] Yeah, I mean, these guys, they just do everything awesome, right? +[1894.38 --> 1897.26] Like the tech they build is impressive as hell. +[1897.26 --> 1903.64] So a subsurface scattering, basically – I'm trying to think the first time I remember hearing that. +[1904.40 --> 1909.80] Like some of the – what was the NVIDIA Elf Pixie character's name? +[1910.20 --> 1911.86] Oh, shoot. It wasn't Dawn, was it? +[1912.22 --> 1913.24] Yeah, I think it was Dawn. +[1913.48 --> 1914.38] Yeah, I think you're right. +[1914.64 --> 1918.58] And that was like – they were like showing off subsurface scattering for the very first time. +[1919.06 --> 1922.62] But now you think about it, how long has it been since we saw that demo +[1922.62 --> 1927.38] and now we're finally getting it into an engine that can operate that technology in a real-time manner? +[1927.74 --> 1929.40] It's been six or seven years, hasn't it? +[1929.48 --> 1931.66] Yeah, there's – I mean, there are several iterations of Dawn, +[1931.72 --> 1936.12] so I can't tell you exactly which one had that demo to begin with, but yeah. +[1936.54 --> 1942.88] I mean, the funny thing about it is it puts us sort of tech, you know, podcasters or journalists or whoever else. +[1942.88 --> 1946.70] It puts us in a really weird position because NVIDIA and AMD, for that matter, +[1947.00 --> 1953.72] are both always trumpeting about this stuff, whether it's VXGI or whether it's, you know, +[1953.84 --> 1961.22] physics simulations interfacing with each other in real-time or whatever the newest, coolest thing they're showing us is, +[1961.44 --> 1964.12] where we kind of sit there and we go, well, shit, guys. +[1964.12 --> 1971.50] It's going to be eight years before you can actually do any of this in real-time in a game engine +[1971.50 --> 1976.04] because you look at something like that lunar – okay, here, before I talk about the lunar lander, +[1976.28 --> 1980.54] guys, in the corner here on the left, you've got no subsurface scattering, +[1980.76 --> 1983.36] so his face looks kind of too harsh. +[1983.84 --> 1986.12] In the middle, you've got a little bit of subsurface scattering, +[1986.24 --> 1990.40] so the reflections off of his face and the tone of his skin looks a lot more natural. +[1990.40 --> 1995.88] And then on the very far right, you've got an exaggerated effect where they've cranked it up too much, +[1996.08 --> 2000.28] kind of like oversaturating your TV, and it just – his face looks like it's made of melted wax. +[2000.50 --> 2002.04] So I just wanted to show that to you guys. +[2002.30 --> 2006.58] So a great example of this would be NVIDIA's lunar lander demo, +[2006.94 --> 2011.32] where they've got their VXGI real-time global illumination running, +[2011.68 --> 2018.72] and on two GTX 980s with a static scene that is not moving +[2018.72 --> 2024.04] and with – what is it? Two models of people? +[2024.52 --> 2026.98] And we don't even have anything that's complicated to render. +[2027.10 --> 2027.80] They're in suits. +[2028.34 --> 2030.56] They're not even – they don't even have skin or anything. +[2030.80 --> 2033.68] And then we've got a ship that's mostly hard edges. +[2033.68 --> 2038.74] And that thing's still chugged, just moving the camera around a little bit. +[2039.06 --> 2043.84] I mean, how far are we away from, A, having any hardware that can run this reasonably well, +[2043.90 --> 2047.06] and, B, a game dev actually implementing this technology? +[2047.06 --> 2051.70] It makes it tough to talk about this stuff when it's actually, like, futuristic tech, +[2051.82 --> 2054.84] not really that meaningful for the GTX 980. +[2054.94 --> 2058.96] No game will ever run on the GTX 980 that uses that technology. +[2058.96 --> 2064.96] It's been that way really since I have ever covered graphics cards, right? +[2065.02 --> 2069.88] From the very first time we saw TNL lighting and then programmable shaders +[2069.88 --> 2072.68] and geometry shaders and all this stuff, they always had these amazing demos. +[2072.68 --> 2075.80] You never really knew what the implementation timeline was. +[2076.18 --> 2082.80] And part of that comes back to people that have this distaste for something like GameWorks. +[2082.90 --> 2086.26] NVIDIA's goal with that is to get that tech into games as quick as possible. +[2086.26 --> 2093.00] Now, it means they sacrifice compatibility and kind of broad industry support for proprietary stuff. +[2093.98 --> 2100.34] But, you know, like, they say that VXGI is in the current iteration of the Unreal Engine, +[2100.88 --> 2104.92] but when will you actually see it in a game is still up in the air? +[2105.02 --> 2106.60] And then to what degree, right? +[2106.64 --> 2109.92] There's a whole lot of resolution options for VXGI. +[2110.40 --> 2116.18] And, I mean, the thing about that is to what degree is really going to depend on the adoption of cards that support it. +[2116.26 --> 2120.24] And if we've got two cards, each of which cost more than $300, +[2121.12 --> 2127.16] then we're a long way away from any game dev actually investing the time and resources that it would take. +[2127.26 --> 2132.86] I mean, you look at game devs not even porting their existing games to DirectX 12, +[2133.12 --> 2135.42] or not even taking games that are currently in development +[2135.42 --> 2139.78] and bothering to move them to DirectX 12 or Mantle or whatever the case may be, +[2139.84 --> 2145.32] where you're going to have an enormous market, a built-in user base for these technologies. +[2146.12 --> 2149.62] And then you take something like VXGI, where it's limited to one or two cards. +[2149.70 --> 2150.22] I mean, come on. +[2151.46 --> 2154.44] I mean, having it in a game engine like UE4 will help with that. +[2154.44 --> 2157.34] And it needs to be one of those things that you can enable, disable. +[2157.52 --> 2162.62] It doesn't affect your gameplay per se, but more about visual style. +[2164.28 --> 2164.54] I don't know. +[2165.22 --> 2166.84] We want to see that kind of stuff in there. +[2166.94 --> 2171.80] And so I applaud any company, whether it be a hardware vendor or software vendor, +[2171.80 --> 2178.76] that is willing to stick their neck out and do more work to push the technology forward, right? +[2178.76 --> 2181.92] If we only stuck with things that worked on GPUs today, +[2182.12 --> 2185.46] we would never actually develop the tech that would allow us to do even newer, +[2185.82 --> 2189.92] better, cooler things on GPUs next year, right? +[2189.96 --> 2191.86] So somebody's got to start at hardware or software. +[2192.76 --> 2195.50] It used to be at software that pushed it, right? +[2195.58 --> 2197.42] And now it's kind of the hardware developers saying, +[2197.42 --> 2198.30] hey, guys, try this. +[2198.36 --> 2199.24] Hey, guys, try this. +[2200.30 --> 2204.44] Speaking of hardware developers, this topic isn't actually in the document, +[2204.66 --> 2206.28] but AMD reached out to me. +[2206.28 --> 2213.56] I've got a pager email from Robert over there in my inbox saying that they watched the October 4th WAN show. +[2214.08 --> 2214.50] Yay! +[2215.02 --> 2215.92] People watch my show. +[2216.34 --> 2219.50] And wanted to address some points I made about FreeSync. +[2220.26 --> 2220.82] Okay. +[2220.96 --> 2225.04] You acknowledge at $25.51 that G-Sync monitors are extremely expensive. +[2225.48 --> 2227.86] We are hoping that FreeSync will help with this. +[2228.18 --> 2231.30] You say there is misinformation concerning FreeSync, +[2231.60 --> 2235.28] but AMD does offer a comprehensive FAQ. +[2235.28 --> 2242.74] So they had just asked me to go ahead and show you guys the AMD FAQ that exists about Project FreeSync. +[2242.88 --> 2248.56] So it's support.amd.com slash ian-us slash kb-articles slash pages slash free sync dash faq.aspx. +[2248.72 --> 2250.30] Really easy to remember, guys. +[2250.52 --> 2252.40] Just go ahead, key that into your browser right now. +[2252.40 --> 2264.64] But the main thing that I wanted to clarify is that I wasn't saying that the misinformation that's there right now is coming from AMD. +[2265.30 --> 2268.10] AMD has their FAQ, and that's fine, and that's great. +[2268.10 --> 2272.42] What I was saying is that there's a lot of misinformation out there. +[2272.56 --> 2280.16] And I think that it's a lot of people repeating things that they heard earlier on in the FreeSync development process, +[2280.16 --> 2283.02] back when we really didn't know what the heck was going on, +[2283.12 --> 2287.38] and AMD wasn't communicating as clearly as they are right now. +[2287.38 --> 2290.52] So, Ryan, you're pretty familiar with FreeSync, correct? +[2291.44 --> 2293.30] As familiar as I can be, yeah. +[2293.44 --> 2296.64] Yeah, well, given that we don't have products in our hands yet. +[2296.72 --> 2296.82] Right. +[2296.82 --> 2303.00] But, I mean, can you explain what the heck it is exactly and how it relates to G-Sync? +[2303.78 --> 2312.70] So, the initial – so, the way I understand it now, FreeSync is a name – I don't know if it will be the final name – +[2312.70 --> 2324.64] a brand associated with the implementation, with AMD's specific implementation of the Visa DisplayPort 1.2A Adaptive Sync technology. +[2324.64 --> 2335.78] So, Adaptive Sync was adopted by the Visa Foundation into DisplayPort 1.2A Revision 2 or whatever they call it as an optional part of the specification. +[2336.60 --> 2347.86] And all it does is it gives the hardware and software vendors the ability to understand that there is a potential for the ability to withhold a V-blank signal. +[2347.86 --> 2355.48] So, you basically can control a monitor's refresh cycle through a system, through an external system like a PC. +[2356.58 --> 2364.16] Now, that doesn't give you – that sync or that – the Adaptive Sync standard doesn't give you any information about how you handle special cases, +[2364.52 --> 2369.52] how you actually implement it, how it works with your driver, how it works with Windows, and all that other stuff. +[2369.82 --> 2376.98] So, the FreeSync technology, as they're calling it, is kind of AMD's implementation of Adaptive Sync into a product. +[2376.98 --> 2381.04] So, that's one of the biggest misconceptions out there, you guys. +[2381.48 --> 2385.16] FreeSync is not built into DisplayPort. +[2385.52 --> 2393.72] It's not just a matter of any DisplayPort 1.2A display and any AMD GPU that supports FreeSync. +[2393.96 --> 2397.10] You plug them together and magic's going to happen. +[2397.10 --> 2403.86] In much the same way that NVIDIA's G-Sync relies on the hardware being implemented on the monitor in a specific way, +[2405.08 --> 2408.80] we will have that same process going on with FreeSync. +[2408.88 --> 2411.08] It will have to actually be a FreeSync certified display. +[2411.16 --> 2414.78] Now, AMD's saying that they're not planning to charge a licensing fee for it, though, correct? +[2415.52 --> 2417.84] Well, correct. +[2417.84 --> 2427.66] Because the DisplayPort, so the only technology required by the display scaler vendor is Adaptive Sync, right? +[2427.68 --> 2430.24] So, that is already part of the standard. +[2430.50 --> 2432.62] So, AMD, you know, doesn't really control. +[2432.72 --> 2436.68] So, a monitor will come out that will support Adaptive Sync. +[2436.86 --> 2438.84] It doesn't necessarily support FreeSync. +[2438.94 --> 2443.52] It will be on FreeSync, the AMD technology, to support Adaptive Sync monitors. +[2444.08 --> 2444.28] Right. +[2444.46 --> 2452.86] But as it turns out, because Tom was on our show and talked very openly about the fact that NVIDIA was not going to support Adaptive Sync monitors, +[2453.50 --> 2458.64] you will essentially have FreeSync versus G-Sync as opposed to what many had hoped, +[2458.76 --> 2462.94] which is you would have G-Sync and then this other standard that both vendors would support. +[2463.74 --> 2465.62] And would eventually just be ubiquitous. +[2465.76 --> 2467.90] Right, which is not going to be the case anymore. +[2469.48 --> 2470.70] It's disappointing, I know. +[2470.84 --> 2472.66] And I expressed that to him several times. +[2472.66 --> 2482.02] But, you know, FreeSync has the capability, it has the opportunity to be everything that we love about G-Sync and cheaper. +[2482.28 --> 2483.40] It has that opportunity. +[2485.58 --> 2489.08] What they need to do is prove it, right? +[2489.84 --> 2492.30] NVIDIA's claim has always been that, hey, it's not easy to do. +[2492.38 --> 2495.22] If it were super easy to do, everybody would have done it by now. +[2495.70 --> 2495.88] Right. +[2495.88 --> 2502.76] And AMD's stance is that we can do it, it's pretty easy, and we can make it, you know, we're not going to charge kind of the licensing fee, +[2502.92 --> 2507.58] and we're not going to charge the markup that you see on all the G-Sync monitors out there, which is an amicable goal. +[2507.66 --> 2508.84] Like, I'm totally for that. +[2508.92 --> 2512.12] Give us variable refresh displays cheaper than we get them today. +[2512.54 --> 2514.14] Yeah, I'm all for it. +[2514.14 --> 2526.24] I just, I have to wonder if they're going to pull it off, because they did say that they linked me to Anantec, where they showed them a working FreeSync monitor at Computex. +[2526.24 --> 2528.36] So that's cool. +[2528.72 --> 2540.34] But Scott had, we had Scott Wasson on last week, so Scott had expressed some, I guess, some respect for how complicated G-Sync was. +[2540.48 --> 2548.02] And he had said that Tom had told him that they actually, it was a good thing that they used a programmable chip for the G-Sync module, +[2548.26 --> 2550.68] because otherwise they would have been doing a hardware refresh. +[2550.68 --> 2557.42] That's why it took so long from when they showed it to us back in October last year to when we actually got monitors, because it wasn't working. +[2557.98 --> 2561.98] They had to actually redesign the functionality of the chip and reprogram it. +[2562.34 --> 2562.50] Yeah. +[2562.96 --> 2569.20] Yeah, I mean, yes, the same thing is what I've been told as well, that it's incredibly complicated. +[2569.78 --> 2573.40] I mean, clearly, you and I were both at that event in Montreal. +[2574.02 --> 2576.34] NVIDIA was incredibly excited about the tech. +[2576.34 --> 2585.40] They would not have waited until August to release a display if there was any way they could have not waited until August to release a display, right? +[2585.56 --> 2594.42] Yeah, and I mean, NVIDIA is usually pretty tidy as far as announce, seed samples, get it out the door. +[2594.66 --> 2594.76] Yeah. +[2594.82 --> 2600.74] Like, their textbook execution, you know, them and guys like Apple, they do it. +[2600.96 --> 2601.58] They nail it. +[2601.58 --> 2607.28] And for NVIDIA to announce something and show it and promise it was going to be available on a date, +[2607.42 --> 2610.90] you're usually pretty sure that they're pretty damn sure it's coming. +[2611.18 --> 2611.30] Yeah. +[2611.30 --> 2612.90] And they were way late on it. +[2613.14 --> 2613.34] Yeah. +[2613.34 --> 2625.40] And I think it's – I don't know this for a fact, but I think one of the reasons why NVIDIA will not support Adaptive Sync displays is because to support an Adaptive Sync display, +[2625.62 --> 2634.96] your driver basically has to do all of the work in Windows that the combination of driver and controller that NVIDIA has on G-Sync will do now. +[2634.96 --> 2642.06] And if they do that, basically they will have to put all of the knowledge that they have learned over the last couple of years building G-Sync into their software, +[2642.18 --> 2646.00] which will then make it easily discoverable by AMD, right? +[2646.12 --> 2648.60] And so that they would get a jump start in that way. +[2648.92 --> 2653.04] But, you know, like I said, I want FreeSync to be here already. +[2653.04 --> 2661.94] You know, we've had Richard Huddy and those guys on our show and they've promised prototypes at certain times and don't really have them yet. +[2662.02 --> 2668.04] I was promised one in September and as far as I know, it's the middle of October now. +[2668.92 --> 2669.80] Well, let's be fair. +[2669.86 --> 2673.26] It's the 10th of October, which is the 3rd of October. +[2673.78 --> 2675.46] It's the first 3rd of October. +[2675.72 --> 2676.62] We'll go with that. +[2677.10 --> 2677.22] Sure. +[2678.06 --> 2679.66] Yeah, October has 31 days. +[2679.66 --> 2686.00] So until we're actually, no, if we're a third of the way through today, then no, no, it is the second third of October, but not half. +[2686.42 --> 2687.50] Let's just agree that it's not. +[2687.74 --> 2691.16] OK, we got to be we're going to we're going to make these these these claims out here. +[2691.18 --> 2692.02] We want to make sure we're accurate. +[2692.16 --> 2694.26] So, you know, I want it to be there. +[2694.30 --> 2698.60] And I think what will I think what will inevitably happen is we'll we'll have to wait until CES. +[2698.90 --> 2702.18] I think scalar vendors, it's not a super quick process. +[2702.54 --> 2705.62] You know, when we first heard about FreeSync, they were talking about, oh, you'll be able to upgrade some displays. +[2705.62 --> 2707.90] And that's really not going to happen. +[2708.28 --> 2708.64] Right. +[2708.64 --> 2713.38] As it turns out, flashing a firmware is not going to make a monitor a good experience. +[2713.48 --> 2716.64] You can make it very of a refresh all you want, but it will be a good experience. +[2717.68 --> 2717.80] Right. +[2718.20 --> 2726.44] And when light is involved in hitting your eyes, any any degradation in that will be noticeable easily. +[2726.68 --> 2728.50] Which worries me a lot. +[2728.82 --> 2734.56] I mean, here's something because, OK, it's it's well, it's not that easy. +[2734.56 --> 2741.34] OK, so let's go back to the old days when it was pretty easy to figure out which graphics card delivered the best gaming experience. +[2741.34 --> 2746.40] You know, you fired up a game, you recorded your average FPS and you made a bar graph. +[2746.40 --> 2747.68] And that was the whole story. +[2747.68 --> 2747.98] Yep. +[2747.98 --> 2750.72] And then all of a sudden we're dealing with runt frames. +[2750.72 --> 2757.52] Frames that are displayed for such a short period of time on your screen that you actually don't even perceive them. +[2757.52 --> 2766.80] We're dealing with things like stutters that don't actually show up in an average or even necessarily a minimum frame rate, but that are visually very obvious. +[2766.80 --> 2778.02] We actually illustrated this in our four way SLI scaling video very recently where we intentionally froze the frame of our video very periodically. +[2778.26 --> 2778.78] I saw that. +[2778.78 --> 2779.26] Lowering our overall. +[2779.66 --> 2780.34] Oh, you saw that? +[2780.50 --> 2780.62] Yeah. +[2781.04 --> 2781.42] Oh, OK. +[2781.76 --> 2781.94] Yeah. +[2782.00 --> 2782.44] So we were. +[2782.60 --> 2792.82] So for the viewers, then we were trying to make a point that just because you lower your frame rate 1% or 2% or 3% doesn't mean that it's only 3% less visually smooth. +[2792.92 --> 2794.62] You can see a stutter very clearly. +[2794.62 --> 2808.32] So that's why, and this was the first time we ever had you as a guest on the show, that's why FCAT or actually capturing the output of the graphics card, analyzing every frame to look at what the viewer was actually seeing became very important. +[2808.60 --> 2817.78] But for something like G-Sync versus FreeSync, how the hell are we going to qualify or, excuse me, quantify the smoothness of the experience? +[2817.78 --> 2826.36] So it will involve basically the same process we use now for capture but with cameras, right? +[2826.48 --> 2836.68] And actually we kind of have the ability right now to capture variable refresh video through DisplayPort. +[2836.68 --> 2842.06] It's like working through some of these ASIC manufacturers and it's not working very well. +[2842.42 --> 2845.18] And the post-processing side of it is actually much more difficult. +[2845.44 --> 2849.34] Post-processing with a static 60 hertz video is really easy. +[2849.44 --> 2850.94] You know what to count for and what to look for. +[2851.36 --> 2856.84] When it varies all the time, you really don't know what you're looking for to even measure against it, right? +[2856.84 --> 2866.50] So it's going to take a little bit, I think, software on the tested PC side to output some here's what I tried to send result. +[2866.72 --> 2866.82] Right. +[2867.00 --> 2870.24] And then a post-processing algorithm that says, well, here's what I actually saw. +[2870.38 --> 2875.92] And then we get into the issue of is NVIDIA going to play well with that? +[2875.98 --> 2877.26] Is AMD going to play well with that? +[2877.34 --> 2880.22] Are they going to fix that system in some way? +[2880.34 --> 2881.54] It's going to be really complicated. +[2881.54 --> 2888.44] And I think at least initially it's going to be a lot of, well, I have these two monitors sitting next to me and they're identical systems. +[2888.82 --> 2892.06] You know, one's got a 290X and one's got a 980 and I'm playing the same game. +[2892.28 --> 2900.86] And maybe I have a mouse going into an HID distributor so that you can play the same game with one mouse and try to like see the comparisons. +[2900.96 --> 2903.24] There's going to be a lot of that crap where it's very objective. +[2903.64 --> 2906.60] And because it's objective, everybody's wrong, right? +[2906.84 --> 2908.10] So you mean subjective. +[2908.82 --> 2909.68] Yeah, yeah, sorry. +[2909.68 --> 2911.94] Because it's subjective, everybody's going to be wrong. +[2912.18 --> 2914.02] Because everybody will have a different opinion. +[2914.40 --> 2924.30] So basically the hardware review industry, of which you've been a part for 15 years, is going full circle from like, yeah, dude, I got this graphics card. +[2924.38 --> 2931.98] It gets like great FPS and my games run super smooth to getting it really down to a science to where we could really figure out which one was better. +[2932.20 --> 2935.68] And then we're going all the way back to, yeah, dude, I got these two graphics cards. +[2935.74 --> 2937.38] I'm going to play with them both side by side. +[2937.42 --> 2938.58] I'll let you know which one's better. +[2938.58 --> 2940.96] Yeah, I think it will be like that initially. +[2941.20 --> 2941.76] And that sucks. +[2942.16 --> 2944.74] But we'll fix it. +[2944.84 --> 2945.74] We'll figure it out. +[2945.94 --> 2959.74] Like it will be an industry problem that will be solved because there's too much money and too much pride in both of these companies to kind of just let it sit there and be determined by our subjective eyeballs. +[2960.00 --> 2961.26] By staring at it really hard. +[2961.46 --> 2961.66] Yeah. +[2962.04 --> 2963.74] And nothing good happens. +[2963.74 --> 2967.92] Once you've stared at a monitor for three hours straight trying to figure out which one is better, nothing good will happen. +[2968.12 --> 2970.32] So it needs to be something. +[2971.00 --> 2971.36] Yeah. +[2971.40 --> 2974.68] I had someone tweet at me the other day about how easy my job is. +[2974.68 --> 2982.84] And I was kind of I was sitting there last night at four in the morning benchmarking these new mobile graphics cards. +[2982.84 --> 2985.52] Just kind of going, dude, you have no idea. +[2985.94 --> 2990.54] My wife to this day still believes that I sit at the office and play video games all day. +[2990.54 --> 2994.72] And I'm like, oh, no, I'm benchmarking them, hun. +[2994.98 --> 3005.68] When you when you play the same 60 to 90 second portion of Skyrim for the I think 40,000th time, it's not really fun anymore. +[3006.20 --> 3008.02] You know, some benchmarks are OK. +[3008.02 --> 3015.34] I don't mind our Tomb Raider run because it's got some it's got some cinematic bits where you kind of you kind of watch some stuff at the beginning. +[3015.34 --> 3018.38] Then it's got like a slow mo thing where you like pop two guys. +[3018.50 --> 3020.08] Then you go into a burning building. +[3020.08 --> 3021.38] You jump across a chasm. +[3021.90 --> 3024.38] You like silent kill some guy. +[3024.50 --> 3026.26] You jump up and then you kill more to two more guys. +[3026.34 --> 3028.62] Like it's actually a pretty engaging benchmark. +[3028.94 --> 3036.14] But our Shadow of Mordor benchmark when I was running that last night Tomb Raider, the two minutes flies by. +[3036.14 --> 3044.66] Shadow of Mordor, the only way we got it consistent enough because we'll do we'll do five or ten runs once we've locked it down. +[3044.66 --> 3054.34] And we'll be looking for about 0.2 to 0.5 FPS difference on the same hardware in order to decide, OK, this runs OK for our error tolerance. +[3054.58 --> 3058.54] So Shadow of Mordor, the way we got that done because it's got dynamic weather. +[3058.88 --> 3062.34] It's got dynamic, you know, roving personnel locations. +[3062.48 --> 3062.62] Yeah. +[3062.62 --> 3063.14] Yep. +[3063.34 --> 3065.20] Bad dudes and all this stuff. +[3065.26 --> 3066.30] It was really hard. +[3066.42 --> 3076.20] So we ended up finding an instance that always has the same weather and then always has the same baddies that will mostly come and attack you all at the same time in pretty much the same way. +[3076.26 --> 3076.92] And they'll circle you. +[3076.92 --> 3088.66] So the way the benchmark works in order to make it equally visually demanding is we attract all the baddies and then block for two minutes with some nice scenery in the background. +[3089.26 --> 3094.68] So we keep our character stationary and our camera as stationary as possible and block for two minutes. +[3094.84 --> 3096.10] And that's how we got the consistency. +[3096.22 --> 3102.16] I swear, sometimes I would miss a block because I was half asleep, half asleep at the wheel there. +[3102.16 --> 3105.46] Yeah, that's I could see how that would be pretty bad. +[3105.78 --> 3105.92] Yeah. +[3106.16 --> 3110.12] You know, at three in the morning, it's like, oh, I have to block this orc again. +[3111.26 --> 3111.62] Crap. +[3112.24 --> 3116.56] Just get like a remember when they had the controllers, the turbo buttons where you just hold it down. +[3116.64 --> 3117.32] Maybe you can do that. +[3119.16 --> 3121.26] No, because I have to reposition him. +[3121.36 --> 3123.90] I actually have to be paying close attention to the block. +[3123.96 --> 3125.72] So I keep him in the same location. +[3125.72 --> 3127.50] So I'm rendering basically the same scene. +[3128.24 --> 3128.64] Yeah. +[3128.68 --> 3128.92] All right. +[3128.92 --> 3129.40] That's pretty bad. +[3129.90 --> 3130.12] Yeah. +[3130.18 --> 3134.92] And the funny, the stupid thing about Shadow of Mordor is, and I'm sure you're with me on this. +[3135.04 --> 3139.74] How much do you wish that video game makers would build in benchmarks into their games? +[3140.80 --> 3142.90] Shadow of Mordor does have a benchmark in it. +[3143.18 --> 3143.68] It does. +[3143.78 --> 3144.52] But here's a problem. +[3144.90 --> 3150.30] Shadow of Mordor is capped at 100 FPS and the benchmark runs at whatever frame rate it wants. +[3150.30 --> 3157.56] So you could get a max FPS value of 280 frames per second, because I think it's actually recording when the screen is black. +[3158.42 --> 3159.96] And the game will never run that way. +[3160.14 --> 3162.02] So you're not getting a meaningful result. +[3162.88 --> 3163.04] Yep. +[3163.14 --> 3163.34] Yep. +[3163.34 --> 3163.64] You're right. +[3163.90 --> 3167.18] I didn't see that issue because we were using the capture stuff. +[3167.28 --> 3169.34] So we didn't capture the black screen stuff. +[3169.42 --> 3169.66] So yeah. +[3169.68 --> 3169.90] Okay. +[3169.98 --> 3170.56] I see what you're saying. +[3170.64 --> 3170.80] Yep. +[3171.10 --> 3171.46] Good point. +[3172.46 --> 3179.16] That and from what I've seen, the Shadow of Mordor benchmark is really not that representative of in-game performance anyway, +[3179.16 --> 3184.04] because you don't get that close to any of the models and you don't really have a ton of them on screen at a time. +[3184.20 --> 3191.38] So when we do our blocking combat thing, we actually get 10 to 20% lower than that fly-through, +[3191.60 --> 3194.04] which has fires and all those things that should be demanding. +[3194.44 --> 3194.82] Explosion. +[3194.82 --> 3199.94] And then when you have adverse weather conditions, you actually drop another 20% off the performance. +[3199.94 --> 3204.22] So that in-game benchmark, which is always great weather and never gets too close to anything, +[3204.40 --> 3209.50] is about 30 to 40% out of the performance that people could actually expect to get in the game. +[3209.68 --> 3214.64] I think it does rain in the benchmark, but it's not the most demanding instance of rain in the game. +[3214.64 --> 3217.30] When the weather's really heavy, it tanks it. +[3217.64 --> 3217.80] Yep. +[3217.80 --> 3222.82] So that was really frustrating for me because I kind of went, well, shoot, this isn't that usable, actually. +[3223.36 --> 3223.52] Yep. +[3224.08 --> 3229.18] Yeah, I think what would be better is, well, I mean, in your instance there, it's all dynamic. +[3229.34 --> 3234.28] So being able to record and replay USB input wouldn't really help you in that instance. +[3234.58 --> 3234.90] No. +[3235.38 --> 3236.62] No, it wouldn't, unfortunately. +[3237.18 --> 3237.92] Tough life we have. +[3238.60 --> 3238.64] Sorry. +[3238.66 --> 3239.42] Yeah, I know. +[3239.62 --> 3240.96] Playing video games for a living. +[3242.14 --> 3243.32] Or so everyone thinks. +[3243.64 --> 3244.16] That's what they think. +[3244.22 --> 3244.54] It's all right. +[3244.54 --> 3247.72] So here's an interesting little piece of news. +[3247.80 --> 3252.28] Now we all know the iPhone 6, which, by the way, I have finally received one of. +[3252.36 --> 3259.92] For those of you who were expecting me to do a review, here's my iPhone 6 that I have obviously totally set up. +[3260.44 --> 3263.60] See, it got completely all the stock icons and nothing else on it. +[3263.68 --> 3265.10] So I'm not started yet. +[3266.16 --> 3267.76] Finally got my iPhone 6. +[3267.84 --> 3268.74] I live dangerously. +[3268.74 --> 3269.90] Got it in my back pocket. +[3269.90 --> 3275.32] I'm like a badass over here. +[3276.28 --> 3286.12] So we originally thought there was a viral video that Marcus Brownlee released where he was showing off the sapphire glass that was supposedly going to be on the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. +[3286.24 --> 3290.06] We originally thought we were going to get a sapphire glass complete display cover. +[3290.44 --> 3292.12] Turns out we didn't get that at all. +[3292.12 --> 3297.48] And GT Advanced Technologies, Apple's sapphire glass supplier, has just filed for bankruptcy. +[3298.24 --> 3300.36] So this was posted by QWERTY Warrior on the forum. +[3300.46 --> 3302.78] The original article was from Next Power Up. +[3303.28 --> 3310.68] And basically, last year, they entered into a big deal, over $500 million with Apple to supply sapphire glass. +[3310.90 --> 3313.16] They're meant to start actually supplying it in 2015. +[3313.16 --> 3320.04] And they are now down to $85 million in cash and looking for additional financing to continue their operations. +[3320.30 --> 3325.34] So, Ryan, how much of a blow is this to the adoption of sapphire glass? +[3325.38 --> 3332.72] Because we all know that Apple really leads the charge on materials technology in a way that no one else seems to be willing to do. +[3332.72 --> 3342.56] The issue with Apple is they like to own the materials that they use or at least kind of be the almost exclusive buyer from those companies, right? +[3342.64 --> 3347.98] So, you know, I'm interested because, like, the phone doesn't use sapphire, but the watch uses sapphire. +[3348.32 --> 3348.62] Yes. +[3348.88 --> 3349.10] Right? +[3349.48 --> 3356.50] So is this indication that they don't expect the watch to sell as much as maybe they had originally? +[3356.50 --> 3365.54] Or, you know, do you believe that they were going to build the display out of sapphire and change their mind kind of at the last minute, I guess, on the phones? +[3366.30 --> 3367.16] I do wonder. +[3367.58 --> 3367.76] Yeah. +[3368.18 --> 3369.74] I mean, that seems likely, right? +[3369.76 --> 3378.48] You have a company who has this multi-million deal, dollar deal with multiple years through Apple, and it kind of, like, all falls through. +[3379.26 --> 3382.52] You know, clearly, they were doing some experimenting, and it didn't turn out. +[3382.52 --> 3383.24] But... +[3383.24 --> 3388.80] Yeah, and I mean, someone the size of Corning, I think even an Apple PO probably doesn't scare them that much. +[3388.98 --> 3396.88] So if Apple turns around and goes, okay, yeah, we need one bazillion orders of Gorilla Glass 3, I think Corning can probably turn that around for them okay. +[3397.72 --> 3400.38] So that really is what it looks like. +[3400.52 --> 3406.76] Those samples that were floating around may have very well been samples that no deal ever got done on. +[3406.76 --> 3413.74] And how disappointing is it then to see that sapphire glass is still probably not going to be the standard for a while? +[3414.54 --> 3417.32] You know, I go through a lot of phones. +[3417.44 --> 3422.12] I don't really scratch them very often, and I don't scratch them on them usually. +[3422.28 --> 3423.32] I kind of do sometimes. +[3423.32 --> 3431.80] But I was never really sure that it made sense, based on the cost difference, to have a sapphire screen on a phone. +[3432.12 --> 3433.66] For my watch, it makes total sense. +[3433.82 --> 3439.54] Because I slam that into every wall and door frame and everything, right? +[3439.60 --> 3440.50] Like, it gets beat up. +[3440.54 --> 3443.90] I have a Samsung Gear Live, and I don't think it has a sapphire screen. +[3444.02 --> 3447.68] And I think you can tell that that is the case, right? +[3447.78 --> 3449.52] My Pebble Steel is still doing okay. +[3449.76 --> 3451.56] Does that one have a Gorilla Glass screen at least? +[3451.72 --> 3452.62] I don't know, actually. +[3452.62 --> 3460.18] I'm not – it's actually – I will admit, looking at it now in these lights, that there aren't really any major scratches, which is maybe impressive. +[3460.30 --> 3461.54] Maybe it does have something in there good. +[3461.60 --> 3467.62] But, I mean, even if it has, like, Gorilla Glass 3, that's still a pretty good product for scratch resistance. +[3468.04 --> 3470.36] So it just – you know, it makes more sense. +[3470.44 --> 3471.34] It's hard to manufacture. +[3471.62 --> 3472.40] Sapphire is. +[3472.40 --> 3483.48] It's much easier to manufacture in a small form factor like this than it is in a 5.5-inch, you know, iPhone 6 Plus type form factor. +[3483.84 --> 3484.04] Right. +[3484.04 --> 3486.68] I think we'll get there eventually, right? +[3486.80 --> 3492.48] Like, they'll – somebody will have some manufacturing breakthrough, and costs will go down. +[3492.54 --> 3495.10] And it's just like anything else that you produce or manufacture. +[3495.36 --> 3498.42] Somebody will eventually figure it out if there is a need for it. +[3498.96 --> 3502.12] I guess it just wasn't GT Advanced Technologies this time. +[3502.12 --> 3512.56] It was not – or maybe it was them, and they have the best solution possible, and Apple was like, no, we don't want to cut into our, you know, our markup, our margins that much. +[3512.60 --> 3514.58] So we're going to wait for our next generation. +[3514.72 --> 3519.24] So maybe the 6S will have Sapphire, or maybe not, you know, so. +[3519.70 --> 3520.56] Who knows with Apple? +[3520.82 --> 3521.56] Yeah, that's true. +[3521.56 --> 3527.64] Speaking of the GearLive, how do you find the smartwatch experience without a multi-day battery? +[3527.64 --> 3538.70] Because I've stuck by the Pebble Steel, especially at that new $200 price point and with that new third-party app that's giving you continuous – I think it does continuous fitness monitoring. +[3539.02 --> 3542.56] Not possibly to the same extent that some other stuff can do with heart rate and all that. +[3542.56 --> 3550.82] But I freaking love this thing, and I love that even as a very heavy user, I can go four days without charging it. +[3551.02 --> 3552.10] Are you okay with one day? +[3553.12 --> 3556.96] I would like to not be, but I think I am. +[3556.96 --> 3567.70] You know, I guess my general rule is I'm going to charge my phone anyway, so plugging in the watch right next to it doesn't really make it that big of a deal. +[3567.84 --> 3583.06] There have been several instances where I've, like, taken off my watch on my dresser instead of my nightstand where my chargers are and forgot about it and woke up the next morning and had a dead watch and got, well, that's stupid, and wished that it had longer battery life. +[3583.06 --> 3586.22] But I wish that for my phones every day as well. +[3586.22 --> 3586.36] Right. +[3586.92 --> 3592.84] But does better wireless charging address all of this in the next 6 to 18 months anyway? +[3592.84 --> 3595.12] Depends on what it is. +[3596.00 --> 3597.94] So wireless charging would help, right? +[3597.98 --> 3603.00] Because the main problem with the Galaxy Gear Live, at least, is that it doesn't have a standard USB port for charging. +[3603.46 --> 3605.12] Yeah, it has that stupid cradle, right? +[3605.14 --> 3609.20] It's got the cradle, and it has the cradle because of the water-resistant necessary. +[3609.68 --> 3611.82] You know, you don't want to ruin your watch when you wash your hands. +[3612.70 --> 3620.06] So, you know, only having that one charger means I don't have one at the office, I don't have one in my car, and I don't have one at the house all at the same time. +[3620.06 --> 3621.38] So, um... +[3621.38 --> 3621.82] Scrub? +[3622.52 --> 3622.88] Yeah. +[3623.30 --> 3623.70] Yeah. +[3624.16 --> 3626.80] I don't know if you can buy them extra, but I'm sure you can. +[3627.54 --> 3629.22] But I forgot the question now. +[3630.24 --> 3632.16] Is a day of battery life okay? +[3632.54 --> 3633.18] It's okay. +[3633.36 --> 3634.26] Like, it sucks. +[3634.34 --> 3636.96] But I would like my phone to go longer as well. +[3637.12 --> 3638.84] But we all made this sacrifice. +[3639.18 --> 3642.16] When I had a BlackBerry, I could go... +[3642.16 --> 3642.42] Wasn't it awesome? +[3642.56 --> 3644.56] I could go three days on a phone. +[3644.88 --> 3645.32] That was great. +[3645.54 --> 3646.56] My old Nokia brick? +[3646.88 --> 3647.12] Yeah. +[3647.12 --> 3647.16] Yeah. +[3647.68 --> 3653.22] I decided to sacrifice features and functionality for battery life. +[3653.34 --> 3661.66] And now, as people in this office would be able to attend to, I am desperately looking to go the other direction without sacrificing features. +[3661.84 --> 3663.06] Like, I have a GS4 now. +[3663.12 --> 3664.04] The battery's getting old. +[3664.86 --> 3666.70] It's starting to lower its battery life. +[3666.86 --> 3672.30] I would love to have a phone with the same level of performance and feature set that has, like, two days of battery life. +[3672.44 --> 3674.36] Don't give me a phone that has new stuff. +[3674.44 --> 3676.30] I don't necessarily want the new stuff. +[3676.30 --> 3676.82] Right. +[3676.96 --> 3678.24] I want a phone that's going to last me. +[3678.62 --> 3683.12] And if I get drunk and pass out at a friend's house, I don't wake up with a dead phone all the time. +[3683.30 --> 3684.50] Not that I do that all the time. +[3684.60 --> 3685.74] Just, you know, just in case. +[3686.08 --> 3687.00] Question for you. +[3687.10 --> 3687.62] And you know what? +[3687.72 --> 3690.44] We've got to do a straw poll on this. +[3690.62 --> 3690.76] Okay. +[3690.76 --> 3694.18] Let me just get a straw poll going here. +[3694.18 --> 3707.52] Do you think that anyone will have the balls to do a two-day or a three-day battery phone and sacrifice the thinness and sexiness that we've come to expect? +[3707.52 --> 3710.14] I was really hoping Apple would do it. +[3710.34 --> 3714.38] Because Apple's been such a pioneer when it comes to battery life. +[3714.38 --> 3728.28] I was really hoping that the 6 series would maintain the same thickness as the older phones, compromise on weight a little bit, add a little bit of weight, and put a similar size battery to what a flagship Android phone is doing. +[3728.28 --> 3748.02] So maybe where the 6 Plus would have had a 3200 milliamp hour battery, like something like an Xperia Z2 does, where Apple, with the way that they sip battery, especially when idle or with tasks running in the background compared to Android, would have legitimately been able to deliver a multi-day, at least a two-day battery. +[3748.32 --> 3749.90] Do you think anyone's going to have the balls? +[3750.10 --> 3756.12] Or are we going to have to wait for Project Aura and for people to just build it themselves out of modular components? +[3756.12 --> 3761.50] I want to believe that somebody would have the guts to do that. +[3761.62 --> 3779.10] Because it's not really that – I mean, as many Android phones as there are out there, as many options as HTC makes or Samsung makes, like take the Galaxy S5 and call it the Galaxy S5 Business Edition or something like that. +[3779.10 --> 3779.24] Sure. +[3779.34 --> 3779.52] Right? +[3779.58 --> 3783.92] And you make it a half inch instead of whatever else, right? +[3783.92 --> 3788.86] You make it a quarter inch thicker and you give it like a 4,500 milliamp hour battery or something like that, right? +[3789.86 --> 3794.32] I would buy that phone because I have normal size pockets. +[3794.82 --> 3801.24] I'm not – you know, I don't have an issue with the size of phones and I don't carry a purse or anything, but I'm okay. +[3801.70 --> 3803.46] I would much rather sacrifice that. +[3803.72 --> 3809.16] You look at the super thin iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and they're beautiful looking designs. +[3809.40 --> 3810.08] They really are beautiful. +[3810.08 --> 3816.06] But add two millimeters to it, three millimeters to it, four millimeters to it. +[3816.10 --> 3817.54] How much do you extend that battery life? +[3817.58 --> 3823.02] I'd love to see some kind of math on that and I'm sure you could do it without too much work, right? +[3823.14 --> 3828.64] If you add four mil of battery to that device, what does that equate to in milliamp hours? +[3828.72 --> 3831.42] And then what does that equate to in actual real world usage? +[3832.06 --> 3832.70] And the thing is because – +[3832.70 --> 3834.12] How many people have Mophis, right? +[3834.22 --> 3837.08] People buy Mophis all the time and it makes your phone a brick. +[3837.08 --> 3838.60] Yeah, exactly. +[3838.60 --> 3839.86] They do it for battery life purposes. +[3840.42 --> 3840.82] Exactly. +[3841.30 --> 3847.82] And I mean the thing is that, you know, these companies, a lot of the time I feel like guys like Samsung in particular, +[3848.10 --> 3851.94] they just kind of throw things at the wall and hope that they stick. +[3852.00 --> 3857.28] And they don't really even seem to know what they're doing a lot of the time where they just release a dozen galaxies +[3857.28 --> 3860.52] and then one of them will have sentient life in it. +[3860.60 --> 3861.14] You know what I mean? +[3861.24 --> 3861.40] Yep. +[3861.40 --> 3866.00] And it seems like we're giving it to them this time. +[3866.18 --> 3867.68] We're handing them the solution. +[3867.90 --> 3869.58] Consumers are demanding this. +[3869.58 --> 3873.50] And with the way that charging technology has improved over the last few generations, +[3873.80 --> 3877.60] where you can charge high-capacity batteries much more quickly, +[3878.16 --> 3882.38] are they just not doing it because it adds so much to the bomb cost of the phone? +[3882.56 --> 3884.08] Like is that the issue we're seeing here? +[3884.08 --> 3886.60] Probably some of that is, right? +[3886.76 --> 3888.86] Batteries aren't necessarily cheap. +[3889.90 --> 3895.44] And it's, you know, depending on how many you're going to make, it's an upfront expense, right? +[3895.48 --> 3898.72] And if it's a huge flop, you have to eat that cost. +[3899.28 --> 3899.44] Right. +[3899.64 --> 3904.98] I was one of the people that when I had a Palm Pre way back in the day, like I bought – +[3904.98 --> 3905.78] You're so young and hip. +[3906.02 --> 3906.40] I know. +[3906.40 --> 3913.32] I bought like the giant – I forget who made that battery, the off-brand CDO. +[3914.06 --> 3914.46] Sure. +[3914.78 --> 3915.60] Never heard of it. +[3915.72 --> 3916.70] Off-brand battery. +[3917.04 --> 3921.50] It was like a big battery and it had a different back on it that was way fatter than everything else. +[3921.58 --> 3922.96] And I thought, this is dumb looking. +[3923.08 --> 3927.02] But, man, I can go two and a half days without having to recharge the phone. +[3927.22 --> 3929.42] So those types of things still exist. +[3929.54 --> 3931.26] I'm trying to think of what was the last phone I did that on. +[3931.94 --> 3933.38] Nexus 5. +[3933.80 --> 3934.10] No, no. +[3934.18 --> 3934.98] Nexus 4. +[3934.98 --> 3936.22] Or Google Nexus. +[3936.30 --> 3936.78] One of those. +[3937.00 --> 3945.36] I bought like an extra large battery that had to have a different back case to it that made it look dumb because it was very obviously not what it shipped with. +[3945.88 --> 3948.18] But it was a much more usable device because of it. +[3948.94 --> 3949.84] You know, at least – okay. +[3950.06 --> 3953.62] I'm going to end this topic with an anecdote here. +[3953.88 --> 3956.72] At least it's not as bad as the really old days. +[3956.78 --> 3958.02] Did you ever have a pocket PC? +[3959.44 --> 3960.60] I did, yes. +[3960.60 --> 3960.98] Okay. +[3961.18 --> 3965.98] Did you ever have one of the pocket PCs that actually didn't have persistent storage? +[3966.78 --> 3969.70] I don't think I did have one of those. +[3969.98 --> 3975.78] I had an HP iPack that actually – the onboard storage, not the RAM. +[3976.10 --> 3977.06] I'm talking storage. +[3977.24 --> 3983.02] The onboard storage did not retain data if the device fully discharged. +[3983.02 --> 3989.10] And so it actually had two battery meters on it. +[3989.26 --> 3994.16] There was like the usable battery meter and then there was the reserve auxiliary battery meter. +[3994.34 --> 3999.38] So once you ran out of battery, it would – the device would power off just like it was off. +[3999.62 --> 4004.50] But then it had a reserve there that would last for about five days, I think, or something like that. +[4004.50 --> 4009.96] And if you lost all of that, you had to plug it in and charge it, and it was factory reset. +[4010.66 --> 4011.02] Wow. +[4011.14 --> 4011.96] I did have an iPack. +[4012.00 --> 4016.40] I don't know if I ever had one that did that, but I don't remember that ever happening. +[4016.62 --> 4017.68] So I don't know. +[4018.02 --> 4018.44] That's weird. +[4018.60 --> 4018.72] Yeah. +[4018.94 --> 4021.84] It was super, super stupid. +[4023.60 --> 4027.58] Speaking of super, super stupid, I'm going to do our sponsor segments here. +[4028.34 --> 4031.92] So what's not stupid is Lynda.com. +[4031.92 --> 4033.98] You can actually make yourself smarter. +[4034.10 --> 4036.72] Actually, okay, I shouldn't say that. +[4036.84 --> 4039.72] Making yourself smarter is a little bit challenging. +[4039.94 --> 4042.74] You can actually increase your IQ by exercising your brain. +[4043.00 --> 4047.26] And you can exercise your brain by using Lynda.com to learn new things. +[4047.60 --> 4052.84] But Lynda.com is more about acquiring new skills, whether that new skill is digital photography +[4052.84 --> 4056.92] or whether that new skill is something like video editing or programming. +[4057.12 --> 4059.34] You can learn all kinds of great stuff on Lynda.com. +[4059.44 --> 4061.56] Their courses are being refreshed all the time. +[4061.56 --> 4063.00] They're taught by experts. +[4063.40 --> 4068.28] They have guided paths that you can follow through to learn new things and become truly +[4068.28 --> 4071.82] proficient at them to the point where you might even get a new career out of it. +[4072.02 --> 4073.06] It's super affordable. +[4073.38 --> 4077.40] And if you're not sure if it's right for you, all you got to do is go to Lynda.com slash +[4077.40 --> 4079.72] WAN show for a free seven day trial. +[4079.88 --> 4080.88] It's all you can eat. +[4081.18 --> 4083.52] You can try out as much different stuff as you want. +[4083.76 --> 4088.88] And if you don't find anything that excites you, then hey, you cancel it. +[4088.88 --> 4091.82] If you do find stuff that excites you, then great. +[4091.94 --> 4093.72] Sign up for a membership and start learning. +[4093.72 --> 4099.68] We've actually got now three employees at Linus Media Group who use the skills they learned +[4099.68 --> 4102.50] with Lynda.com daily at their jobs. +[4102.50 --> 4104.42] So it really does work. +[4104.62 --> 4105.44] It's really awesome. +[4105.80 --> 4110.62] It's one of the, actually, it's one of the sponsors that I get the most testimonials +[4110.62 --> 4110.92] about. +[4111.10 --> 4112.00] People tweeting at me. +[4112.06 --> 4113.32] Hey, I'm on Lynda.com. +[4113.40 --> 4114.10] Thanks for the recommendation. +[4114.24 --> 4114.74] It's awesome. +[4114.96 --> 4116.12] So there you go. +[4116.44 --> 4118.12] Now this one, Phantom Glass. +[4118.22 --> 4122.52] I don't get nearly as many people telling me that they have it and it's amazing. +[4123.38 --> 4128.22] So my guess is that you guys haven't tried it yet because it really is awesome. +[4128.56 --> 4130.28] I've got Phantom Glass on my 1M8. +[4130.44 --> 4132.32] You would never know it from touching it. +[4132.42 --> 4134.38] I was actually showing this to someone. +[4135.56 --> 4136.38] Where was I? +[4136.46 --> 4138.26] It was at one of the factory tours. +[4138.36 --> 4139.26] Yeah, it was at Sennheiser. +[4139.26 --> 4146.98] We were talking about using high quality materials in hardware and for some reason, yes, we were +[4146.98 --> 4152.88] talking about some device that had a touch sensitive glass thing, glass panel on it that +[4152.88 --> 4154.56] was in the room where we were getting our presentation. +[4155.40 --> 4159.24] And I forget how we got on the topic, but they were talking about how screen protectors +[4159.24 --> 4166.06] or really anything but Gorilla Glass or similar high grade glass coatings really feels awful +[4166.06 --> 4167.30] when you're using it. +[4167.30 --> 4171.70] And so I pulled up my phone and I went, well, I bet you don't know that I actually have a +[4171.70 --> 4175.08] screen protector on here that's made of Gorilla Glass. +[4175.16 --> 4180.02] So the way that it works, and we did a review video of it that ended up being the springboard +[4180.02 --> 4185.16] for the sponsorship relationship because I loved the product so much that we decided to +[4185.16 --> 4187.18] reach out to them and go, well, hey, should we work together? +[4187.28 --> 4189.28] Because I'm totally willing to endorse this stuff. +[4189.34 --> 4190.30] It's freaking awesome. +[4190.74 --> 4196.58] It's got a nano coating on the backside that's actually removable and can be reapplied if for +[4196.58 --> 4197.90] whatever reason you wanted to do that. +[4198.20 --> 4199.82] But it never comes up on its own. +[4199.90 --> 4201.34] It's actually quite hard to take off. +[4201.42 --> 4205.14] The only reason I took it off once was because when I was putting it on in the first place, +[4205.18 --> 4206.32] I put it on in the wrong spot. +[4206.42 --> 4209.12] And I was like, oh, crap, there's no way I'm going to be able to take it off, put it back +[4209.12 --> 4209.26] on. +[4209.30 --> 4210.06] It's actually going to work. +[4210.38 --> 4210.90] It did. +[4210.90 --> 4216.66] And then the front of it has the same oleophobic scratch resistant properties as Gorilla Glass +[4216.66 --> 4219.28] 3 because that's exactly what it's made of. +[4219.38 --> 4223.34] The only thing you give up is that there is going to be a slight ridge around the edges +[4223.34 --> 4227.40] of the screen, but it's thin enough at least that you can use it with most cases. +[4227.54 --> 4231.90] In fact, I think they advertise all cases, but I hate to say that because I'm sure someone +[4231.90 --> 4233.82] somewhere will find a case that it doesn't work with. +[4233.82 --> 4239.86] But it'll work with most aftermarket cases without any gaps or any sort of weirdness. +[4239.94 --> 4240.74] So guys, check it out. +[4241.04 --> 4242.98] Store.Phantom.Glass. +[4243.16 --> 4246.58] They're actually going to be sponsoring us at CES this year. +[4247.04 --> 4249.18] And we're going to be doing either. +[4249.28 --> 4253.58] I'm not quite sure which it'll be yet, but we're either going to do a dedicated video +[4253.58 --> 4258.84] where Luke and I run around just going into booths and rubbing our phones on crap and getting +[4258.84 --> 4259.76] people's reactions. +[4259.76 --> 4266.18] Or we're just going to do that randomly during interviews with people and just kind of cut +[4266.18 --> 4270.50] that together into a funny montage because it's that protective. +[4271.08 --> 4275.20] Not only is it very scratch resistant, but you can actually replace it and your screen +[4275.20 --> 4279.30] underneath will be perfect, of course, still, just like any other screen protector, except +[4279.30 --> 4281.50] that it doesn't look like ass and feel like ass. +[4281.80 --> 4285.06] Because you know if it looks like ass and feels like ass, it's probably ass. +[4285.06 --> 4287.68] Just like that duck saying. +[4288.38 --> 4289.98] Looks like a duck and quacks like a duck. +[4290.06 --> 4292.48] Anyway, the point is I think we should move on to our next topic here. +[4292.58 --> 4295.52] Thanks to our sponsors, lynda.com and Phantom Glass. +[4296.08 --> 4298.82] Will you promise to wear a costume when you do that video? +[4299.50 --> 4300.86] I probably should. +[4301.24 --> 4304.04] What would be like a ghost costume? +[4304.20 --> 4305.22] Like Phantom Glass. +[4305.86 --> 4306.14] Woo! +[4307.56 --> 4307.96] Woo! +[4310.06 --> 4310.42] Sure. +[4310.88 --> 4312.14] Maybe Pac-Man ghost. +[4312.40 --> 4313.06] You know, there you go. +[4313.06 --> 4314.40] Maybe something more comical. +[4314.40 --> 4318.78] I don't think people mostly cosplay at CES, but we could start that trend. +[4318.80 --> 4319.32] You can try. +[4319.56 --> 4320.20] You can try. +[4323.24 --> 4323.64] Yeah. +[4324.18 --> 4325.22] Would you do it if we did it? +[4325.26 --> 4326.48] Would you cosplay CES? +[4327.00 --> 4329.14] All your meetings and all your show floor visits? +[4329.36 --> 4330.14] Probably wouldn't. +[4330.48 --> 4332.64] Probably would not. +[4333.28 --> 4334.24] All my meetings? +[4334.60 --> 4335.34] I don't know. +[4335.48 --> 4337.52] Maybe once or twice, but maybe not all of them. +[4338.78 --> 4341.06] I'd go to all the parties with you dressed up like that. +[4341.10 --> 4341.40] How's that? +[4341.40 --> 4344.22] Speaking of Glass, Fnod posted this on the forum. +[4344.22 --> 4346.22] The original article is from Digital Trends. +[4346.22 --> 4347.98] I'm just going to go ahead and screen share here. +[4348.38 --> 4353.52] Google Glass can now add closed captions to real life. +[4354.00 --> 4355.60] Absolutely fascinating technology. +[4355.74 --> 4357.80] I mean, I think we all saw stuff like this coming. +[4357.90 --> 4359.28] It's just augmented reality. +[4359.84 --> 4361.42] That's all it really is. +[4361.42 --> 4370.94] But the fact that we're getting there with this, frankly, very rudimentary hardware that we have now is extremely exciting. +[4370.94 --> 4384.18] So the idea is that you would be able to maybe not necessarily transcribe an entire conversation perfectly for someone who is, let's say, completely deaf, has no hearing in either ears. +[4384.18 --> 4393.92] But if you've got someone who's hard of hearing and misses a word here and there, or even in some cases people who speak different languages, you would be able to communicate with each other. +[4393.92 --> 4396.24] That's really the killer feature for this, right? +[4396.48 --> 4398.80] Is going out of the country. +[4399.08 --> 4400.58] I go to China. +[4400.72 --> 4401.80] I don't speak Mandarin. +[4402.84 --> 4406.72] I can have a conversation with somebody if we are both wearing these devices. +[4407.92 --> 4410.76] It's going to require more processing than we have today. +[4410.92 --> 4413.14] It needs to be perfected to a certain degree. +[4413.46 --> 4418.50] And roaming needs to go away because you're not going to be using a feature like this without your internet connection. +[4418.62 --> 4419.12] That's true. +[4419.12 --> 4419.72] That's true. +[4420.08 --> 4422.00] The world's got a long way to go yet, but. +[4422.30 --> 4422.74] It does. +[4424.22 --> 4429.50] I would also – they had something – I had Glass initially and used it for a little while. +[4429.68 --> 4433.66] And it had the ability to translate signs, right? +[4433.72 --> 4435.36] There was an app that could do that, right? +[4435.38 --> 4444.90] Where the idea was road signs or street signs that gave mileage or directions or street names or something like that in a different language would be translated for you. +[4444.90 --> 4450.84] And it worked okay, but it was something like where you needed to be very still and you had to point the camera in a very specific way. +[4451.10 --> 4457.98] And this seems to be like to be a more useful implementation of that idea, right? +[4457.98 --> 4458.02] Right. +[4458.02 --> 4465.88] Because, I mean, Google – if anybody has voice-to-text transcription down, it should be Google, right? +[4465.88 --> 4475.12] All the Google Voice voicemails they do, all the closed captioning they do on YouTube videos and all the corrections that they do for that stuff, they should be pretty good at that. +[4475.48 --> 4476.32] You would think that. +[4476.40 --> 4481.50] I actually had a pretty stupid experience with Google Now earlier today. +[4481.64 --> 4485.92] I think I asked for directions somewhere and it Googled directions to wherever. +[4486.12 --> 4488.70] Like it still does that for me about 40% of the time. +[4488.82 --> 4489.64] I hate Google Now. +[4490.42 --> 4490.72] Really? +[4490.92 --> 4491.26] It's infuriating. +[4491.42 --> 4493.28] It's way better than what Siri does. +[4493.36 --> 4495.38] We have this debate in our office all the time. +[4495.38 --> 4496.98] No, no, no, no. +[4497.08 --> 4497.76] Yeah, it is. +[4498.16 --> 4505.08] I'm sure the audience doesn't want me to do the whole Siri versus Google Now thing again, but why don't we just say this? +[4505.18 --> 4508.82] I disagree with you and we'll have this debate next time you're on the show, okay? +[4508.84 --> 4509.42] Okay, all right. +[4509.52 --> 4509.86] Fair enough. +[4510.00 --> 4510.34] All right. +[4511.44 --> 4516.50] I'll bring my best Google Now phone and we'll have a speech off. +[4516.70 --> 4517.66] We'll have a speech off? +[4518.38 --> 4520.04] I would actually be interested in that. +[4520.10 --> 4521.70] We'll see if we can stump each other's phones. +[4522.18 --> 4523.20] Yeah, that'd be good. +[4523.48 --> 4524.40] That might be kind of fun. +[4524.40 --> 4525.62] All right. +[4525.68 --> 4531.88] Speaking of things that are fun, customer information compromised in an AT&T insider breach. +[4532.00 --> 4536.68] This was originally posted by Dietrich W. on the forum and the original article here is from CNET. +[4536.72 --> 4538.18] I'm just going to pop this up on the screen. +[4538.18 --> 4543.08] AT&T warns 1,600 customers of data breach. +[4543.08 --> 4548.00] So basically, this wasn't a systemic problem necessarily. +[4548.20 --> 4557.10] It wasn't that AT&T was intentionally collecting this information and sharing it with crappy folks or whatever the case may be. +[4557.10 --> 4562.26] This was a case where a rogue employee went and stole this information. +[4562.26 --> 4568.54] And I think this underlines one of the real issues with data collection. +[4568.54 --> 4575.48] The issue is not necessarily the terms of service because this is clearly against AT&T's privacy policy. +[4575.48 --> 4585.04] The issue is that if you're collecting the information, someone somewhere may have access to it and they're the problem. +[4585.20 --> 4586.60] That's not a policy issue. +[4586.94 --> 4590.92] That's just a people are people and bad people are bad people. +[4590.92 --> 4594.10] So I don't really know what to say. +[4594.18 --> 4596.74] The employee has been fired and everyone affected has been contacted. +[4597.12 --> 4599.72] But I mean, what do you think, Ryan? +[4600.06 --> 4602.34] Should we go tinfoil hat here? +[4602.44 --> 4605.98] Are we afraid of people having our information or should we trust companies? +[4606.22 --> 4609.56] I mean, this is really the oldest form of this that you'll ever find, right? +[4609.66 --> 4610.12] Go back. +[4610.30 --> 4615.42] I mean, bankers have had access to your money for 100 years, right? +[4615.74 --> 4618.28] And this is not going to go away. +[4618.28 --> 4628.82] If anything, the computerization of these processes will take people out of the process, out of the pipeline of these things occurring. +[4629.08 --> 4630.64] And so you have less instances of this. +[4630.70 --> 4634.82] That doesn't make you more safe, of course, as we've seen data breaches in other ways. +[4635.40 --> 4638.74] This is more of a, hey, you had a really crappy employee. +[4639.58 --> 4641.14] But that could happen at a hospital. +[4641.14 --> 4642.30] That could happen at a bank. +[4642.36 --> 4647.78] That could happen at a restaurant where the waitress has a skimmer in her pocket, right? +[4647.78 --> 4648.70] Right, yep. +[4648.98 --> 4657.44] Those are all personnel issues and there's always going to be people in this world that are trying to do those types of things, right? +[4657.62 --> 4663.00] So would you prefer a digital system versus a human intervention system in this case then? +[4664.06 --> 4664.94] Man, I don't know. +[4664.94 --> 4675.96] I gotta say, the scope of the theft here is so small compared to what happens when something goes wrong with a digital system. +[4676.08 --> 4676.40] True. +[4676.80 --> 4678.58] So it only got 1,600, right? +[4678.72 --> 4681.46] 1,600 people had their information compromised. +[4681.68 --> 4682.74] And it sucks to be you. +[4682.92 --> 4684.26] Like, it sucks for those people. +[4684.26 --> 4690.10] But we're not talking 100,000 or 160,000 people with information compromised. +[4690.10 --> 4691.22] Like, what will happen? +[4692.24 --> 4693.00] Who was it? +[4693.12 --> 4693.38] Crap. +[4693.44 --> 4696.74] Was it Target that had a major problem with their POS system? +[4696.90 --> 4697.08] Yeah. +[4697.22 --> 4699.46] Thousands and thousands of customers' information was compromised. +[4699.70 --> 4700.56] What was it, credit card numbers? +[4701.40 --> 4702.12] Yeah, I think so. +[4702.22 --> 4702.38] Yeah. +[4702.60 --> 4705.70] Can't remember the exact details, but... +[4705.70 --> 4708.12] Recently, it was Home Depot and Jimmy John's. +[4708.12 --> 4713.50] Like, my bank called me a couple weeks ago and said, hey, we're sending you a new checking account card. +[4713.56 --> 4714.10] And I was like, why? +[4714.24 --> 4718.68] He said, well, we looked and you've shopped at Jimmy John's and Home Depot in the last 60 days, so you're getting a new card. +[4718.74 --> 4720.20] And I was like, that sucks. +[4720.34 --> 4722.64] But, hey, thanks for being proactive about it, I guess. +[4723.64 --> 4724.32] It's interesting. +[4724.50 --> 4728.82] Like, there was a service that I saw a Kickstarter for recently, I can't remember the name of it, +[4729.12 --> 4736.14] where it automatically generated a unique credit card number for each merchant that you shopped at, for example. +[4736.14 --> 4741.46] And then if that merchant ever had a security issue, that number would be automatically canceled, right? +[4741.54 --> 4743.46] And nobody else had access to it. +[4743.50 --> 4751.12] So you didn't have to go through and change your card information and change who pays your bills or change all those other companies just because one merchant screwed up. +[4751.78 --> 4752.70] It was an interesting idea. +[4752.76 --> 4754.28] I don't know exactly how it worked necessarily. +[4755.44 --> 4756.96] But that is... +[4756.96 --> 4757.14] Interesting. +[4757.14 --> 4757.30] That's really interesting. +[4757.66 --> 4757.84] Yeah. +[4757.98 --> 4759.42] I'm trying to remember what it was called. +[4759.80 --> 4761.86] I'm sure somebody in the chat will know eventually. +[4762.12 --> 4762.38] Level? +[4762.54 --> 4763.32] I want to say Level. +[4763.32 --> 4763.72] Level. +[4766.62 --> 4767.96] Level credit card. +[4768.42 --> 4769.66] I don't remember what it was. +[4770.80 --> 4774.38] But it was a Kickstarter that basically had this service, right? +[4774.46 --> 4783.96] So anywhere you shopped online or even if you called somebody on the phone, you could generate a unique number for that merchant through their app and give it to them that way. +[4784.04 --> 4786.14] Obviously, if you have to swipe your card, I don't think that would work. +[4786.56 --> 4786.86] Right. +[4786.86 --> 4788.78] But it seemed like a good idea. +[4788.78 --> 4789.18] That's incredibly cool. +[4789.56 --> 4794.22] I mean, I think we're going to have an issue with there only being so many credit card numbers available. +[4794.22 --> 4799.24] And we might have kind of an IPv4 versus IPv6 type of issue here. +[4799.28 --> 4804.28] We're going to have to start adding alpha characters to credit card numbers. +[4804.38 --> 4805.98] I mean, this is going to happen eventually anyway. +[4806.38 --> 4810.06] But I mean, that's a really interesting approach. +[4810.06 --> 4812.40] It would have to be done by more than just one app maker. +[4813.06 --> 4825.04] Like it would have to be the banking system actually implementing this at a much higher level where each individual has, you know, a thousand or tens or even hundreds of thousands of potential credit card numbers applied to them. +[4825.04 --> 4831.94] And that would be a much faster way to narrow down data theft and particularly financial data theft. +[4832.20 --> 4839.88] I think it would be much less likely to happen in the U.S. than Canada, though, just because our central banking system allows us to do pretty much everything faster than you guys. +[4840.40 --> 4846.58] You know, whether it's chip-based cards or even pins versus signatures and all that kind of stuff. +[4847.66 --> 4849.38] Yeah, we don't have chip and pin here yet. +[4849.44 --> 4850.92] They always say it's coming soon. +[4851.34 --> 4852.14] But yeah, sure, whatever. +[4852.14 --> 4854.18] I encountered one. +[4854.56 --> 4856.22] And this is actually kind of a funny story. +[4856.36 --> 4859.18] If you don't mind if I just kind of memble for a bit here. +[4859.34 --> 4864.36] I was down at PAX and I was on my way back and I realized I didn't have enough gas to get home. +[4864.64 --> 4866.44] So I wanted to get something while I was in the city. +[4866.50 --> 4872.30] I went to the gas station and I went to pay at the pump and it prompted me for my zip code. +[4872.40 --> 4873.58] Of course, I don't have a zip code. +[4873.66 --> 4874.28] I'm not American. +[4874.96 --> 4876.82] So I was like, oh, crap, right? +[4876.88 --> 4878.10] This song and dance again. +[4878.18 --> 4878.94] So I have to go back. +[4879.02 --> 4881.86] I have to go into the station and I go to pay the guy. +[4881.86 --> 4883.00] He asks, how much do you want? +[4883.06 --> 4883.96] I say, oh, I don't know, man. +[4884.04 --> 4884.40] Fill up. +[4884.68 --> 4889.28] And so he hands me the card thing and I go to swipe it. +[4889.32 --> 4890.52] And he says, oh, no, no. +[4891.38 --> 4891.70] Right. +[4891.74 --> 4893.36] We're having a conversation before this. +[4893.48 --> 4894.50] And he asks where I'm from. +[4894.54 --> 4895.44] I tell him I'm from Canada. +[4895.70 --> 4895.82] Right. +[4895.86 --> 4896.80] So he hands me the thing. +[4896.86 --> 4897.62] I go to swipe it. +[4897.78 --> 4900.72] And he says, I know you're not Canadian. +[4901.48 --> 4902.60] And I kind of went, what? +[4903.36 --> 4905.40] He says, no, I know you're not Canadian. +[4905.48 --> 4906.86] I'm like, no, I'm Canadian. +[4906.86 --> 4912.98] And like here we've got someone I'm trying to use a credit card with telling me they don't believe my identity. +[4913.20 --> 4915.78] So I feel like I have a bit of a problem here right now. +[4916.06 --> 4918.36] And so he says, do you know how I know? +[4919.58 --> 4919.98] Sure. +[4920.16 --> 4920.60] Humor me. +[4920.82 --> 4924.12] He goes, because you didn't try to put the chip reader in. +[4924.58 --> 4927.42] And I go, well, OK, Sherlock. +[4927.64 --> 4930.42] I'm in America where they generally don't have chip readers. +[4930.42 --> 4932.72] And so I went to swipe it. +[4932.96 --> 4934.82] It's really, you're not that much of a detective. +[4935.12 --> 4937.52] But he looked at my ID really closely. +[4938.80 --> 4939.16] Wow. +[4939.92 --> 4942.38] It's just like, OK, whatever, man. +[4943.40 --> 4944.66] We'll get those one day. +[4945.06 --> 4945.36] Sure. +[4945.50 --> 4945.84] Why not? +[4945.98 --> 4948.60] You guys will catch up to Canada someday. +[4948.88 --> 4949.46] Good luck with that. +[4949.66 --> 4950.22] Story of our life. +[4950.58 --> 4954.00] Speaking of catching up with Canada, this segue makes no sense. +[4954.24 --> 4958.28] Bridgestone releases air-free tires you never have to inflate. +[4958.28 --> 4961.58] This was posted by 13CA350 on the forum. +[4961.76 --> 4964.20] And the original article here is from CNET. +[4964.38 --> 4971.16] This is actually not the first time we've seen any kind of, you know, airless tire attempted. +[4971.52 --> 4979.66] But this is the first time that Bridgestone is really saying that, hey, these might actually be not that bad. +[4979.74 --> 4981.24] This is their second gen tire. +[4981.64 --> 4986.48] And if you guys have a look at the images here on CNET, it actually looks pretty cool. +[4986.56 --> 4988.22] Every part of it is recyclable. +[4989.28 --> 4996.20] And shock absorption is handled by the shape of the spokes here. +[4997.44 --> 4999.40] And, yeah. +[4999.80 --> 5003.42] I wonder, I'm sure they do talk about it because they mentioned shock absorption. +[5003.42 --> 5006.52] But, like, I have run-flat tires on one of my cars. +[5007.00 --> 5015.96] And they are noticeably less, let's say, good in terms of ride quality, right? +[5016.96 --> 5018.44] Especially when there's no air in them. +[5018.50 --> 5022.24] Because I've had a flat tire and a run-flat before, and it's very stiff after that. +[5022.40 --> 5024.60] So, I imagine, I mean, the design looks pretty cool. +[5024.92 --> 5027.94] So, I'm sure they're taking that into consideration. +[5028.66 --> 5028.84] Yeah. +[5028.84 --> 5032.16] They have a replaceable tread on them, which is another really cool thing. +[5032.22 --> 5040.30] I mean, this looks like as much a sustainability improvement as it is a car maintenance and potentially safety improvement. +[5040.30 --> 5046.90] I mean, I think it'll be a long way before we see any kind of a commercial product like something that you would put on a semi-truck like this. +[5047.14 --> 5053.54] But for consumer vehicles, other than the fact that it's so ugly, I would never consider putting it anywhere near even my car. +[5053.54 --> 5056.10] It's pretty exciting technology. +[5059.20 --> 5061.88] You know, I'm sure they could make it look better. +[5062.00 --> 5067.70] They could hide the weird stuff on the side with some kind of design. +[5068.06 --> 5069.14] Return of hubcaps. +[5069.28 --> 5069.84] Let's do that. +[5070.24 --> 5071.10] Return of hubcaps. +[5071.22 --> 5072.00] Yeah, yeah. +[5072.14 --> 5074.72] If we hit it enough, that could probably work. +[5075.68 --> 5077.32] And then the return of hubcap theft. +[5078.24 --> 5078.94] Yeah, okay. +[5079.02 --> 5079.32] That too. +[5079.46 --> 5079.60] Yep. +[5079.88 --> 5083.32] Or when they fly off on the highway and smash into somebody else's windshield. +[5083.32 --> 5083.98] There's that too. +[5084.40 --> 5084.98] Yeah, or that. +[5085.16 --> 5089.26] Maybe we could have like a really nice plastic hubcap that just looks metal. +[5089.46 --> 5091.74] Like maybe we'll really get the hang of fake metal. +[5091.76 --> 5093.10] They'll finally figure that out. +[5093.22 --> 5093.42] Yeah. +[5094.62 --> 5095.74] Just spray paint it. +[5095.80 --> 5096.16] It's fine. +[5096.68 --> 5104.66] So speaking of things that we're finally figuring out, we still haven't finally figured out that people want more battery life in their phones. +[5104.66 --> 5112.96] But HTC, and this was posted on the forum by opmonkeymatthew78, HTC has finally figured out. +[5112.96 --> 5118.62] That some people use their selfie cameras more than they actually use their other cameras anyway. +[5119.04 --> 5124.60] So why don't we just produce a camera that has a front facing camera that's just as good as the back one. +[5124.94 --> 5130.54] The HTC One M8i has two 13 megapixel cameras. +[5130.54 --> 5131.78] One on the back. +[5131.78 --> 5132.54] On the front. +[5132.66 --> 5134.26] It takes 1080p video. +[5134.52 --> 5138.04] It even has a two-tone flash on the front. +[5138.18 --> 5144.86] So you can really take pretty much almost the same quality photos with the front camera as you can with the back one. +[5146.92 --> 5148.26] Brian, do you take a lot of selfies? +[5148.84 --> 5150.98] No, I do not. +[5151.20 --> 5153.64] However, this makes a lot of sense. +[5154.18 --> 5160.82] Like, I think what's funny is I think this makes way more sense than the phones that had the tiny screen on the back of it. +[5161.42 --> 5162.12] You remember those? +[5162.30 --> 5163.36] Which one was it? +[5163.54 --> 5168.14] That had a small screen on the back so that you could see what you were taking a picture of. +[5168.22 --> 5169.20] I remember that. +[5169.22 --> 5169.96] No, maybe it wasn't a phone. +[5170.04 --> 5172.50] Maybe it was a snapshot camera. +[5172.50 --> 5175.04] No, I had one. +[5175.34 --> 5177.26] I had a, ah, shoot. +[5177.34 --> 5177.90] What was it called? +[5178.52 --> 5178.96] I don't know. +[5179.46 --> 5185.10] But the fact that we even went through that process was like, I know, we'll put a screen on the back. +[5185.50 --> 5185.78] Here we go. +[5185.80 --> 5189.32] When in reality, what we should have done is put a better camera on the front. +[5189.68 --> 5191.88] I guess it determines which one was more expensive. +[5192.34 --> 5193.86] This is the Samsung Jive. +[5194.40 --> 5195.38] I had one of these. +[5195.50 --> 5195.72] Okay. +[5195.82 --> 5196.74] And it was a flip. +[5197.10 --> 5199.14] So here's the camera here. +[5199.14 --> 5200.50] I know this is a really small image. +[5200.50 --> 5204.08] And it had a small screen on the front for previewing messages and seeing the time. +[5204.22 --> 5209.32] And I believe I could also use that front screen to line up photos. +[5209.68 --> 5210.12] Yeah. +[5210.56 --> 5211.32] If I recall correctly. +[5211.32 --> 5217.44] I think there was like a non-phone snapshot camera that had that as well. +[5217.52 --> 5224.18] Maybe by Canon or Nikon or somebody that had like a little screen on the front right next to the lens so that you could see what you were pointing it at when you did that. +[5225.88 --> 5229.30] But, yeah, this makes way more sense. +[5229.30 --> 5231.98] So you've got a really nice screen already on the phone. +[5232.46 --> 5235.52] And just take that camera and add another one, I guess. +[5235.68 --> 5236.02] I don't know. +[5236.26 --> 5239.58] Is this an exceptionally expensive phone by any measure? +[5239.76 --> 5240.20] I don't know. +[5240.68 --> 5241.90] I don't think so. +[5241.96 --> 5244.44] I don't think it really affected the cost too much at all. +[5244.62 --> 5246.26] I'm setting up a straw poll here, though, guys. +[5246.28 --> 5247.12] I want to hear from you. +[5247.32 --> 5251.16] How many selfies do you take per week if you're willing to admit it? +[5251.88 --> 5253.40] Remember, these straw polls are anonymous. +[5253.40 --> 5253.42] It's anonymous. +[5253.94 --> 5254.10] Yeah. +[5254.24 --> 5254.40] Yeah. +[5254.40 --> 5256.58] Or as anonymous as anything is, I guess. +[5257.82 --> 5258.56] Somewhat anonymous. +[5259.22 --> 5261.94] So anyway, let's just see if there's anything here I have to. +[5262.02 --> 5262.18] Okay. +[5262.26 --> 5269.16] So it's gone quietly on sale in China for the equivalent of 652 US dollars and will apparently +[5269.16 --> 5273.96] only be a China and India release, at least for the foreseeable future. +[5274.34 --> 5276.14] Why do they get cooler stuff than us? +[5276.26 --> 5277.00] Dual SIM? +[5277.98 --> 5279.32] Better selfie cameras? +[5279.32 --> 5282.72] Okay, at least dual SIM is cooler, but why do they get better stuff than us? +[5284.12 --> 5286.20] Our cell phone carriers are paying the ass. +[5286.84 --> 5287.12] Oh, yeah. +[5287.16 --> 5288.02] I guess there's that, right? +[5288.22 --> 5288.24] Yeah. +[5288.26 --> 5291.02] So it's kind of wild west out there is my understanding. +[5291.24 --> 5291.42] Yeah. +[5292.54 --> 5293.02] All right. +[5293.06 --> 5294.48] So it features autofocus. +[5295.70 --> 5297.24] Oh, there's another camera, too. +[5297.32 --> 5298.82] There's the Desire Eye. +[5299.10 --> 5303.32] So that one is also a selfie-optimized phone. +[5304.22 --> 5306.40] So they're both coming out. +[5306.66 --> 5308.36] Now, we've got to have a look at the straw poll. +[5308.36 --> 5312.58] This was the one straw poll that I knew I had to do in this video. +[5314.42 --> 5314.90] Wow. +[5315.20 --> 5316.48] I bet I can predict the results. +[5316.90 --> 5323.56] So the number of you that maybe this is why we're not getting these cameras, because 83% +[5323.56 --> 5326.80] of you say none you in response to... +[5326.80 --> 5334.88] I think our audience on this show is very different than the audience for any of these phones. +[5334.88 --> 5340.32] However, I know there are a lot of 12-year-old girls out there that do this all the time, +[5340.38 --> 5341.66] because I have a niece that does it. +[5341.70 --> 5343.62] And every time she sees me, she's like, oh, let's get a picture. +[5343.72 --> 5345.52] And she holds it up, and she puts it on Instagram. +[5345.74 --> 5347.74] And I go, I don't know what's going on anymore. +[5348.10 --> 5348.64] Kill me now. +[5348.64 --> 5350.44] I'm 32 years old. +[5350.48 --> 5351.30] What are you doing to me? +[5351.38 --> 5352.16] That type of thing. +[5353.76 --> 5356.34] I don't feel like I should feel this old yet. +[5356.66 --> 5356.98] Yeah. +[5357.12 --> 5357.90] Yes, exactly. +[5358.04 --> 5358.32] That. +[5358.46 --> 5362.54] But I bet there's a pretty big market for it. +[5362.60 --> 5362.96] I don't know. +[5364.34 --> 5365.18] You can sell anything. +[5365.36 --> 5365.80] Why not? +[5366.86 --> 5371.64] And yet we get the selfie phone, but not the high battery capacity phone. +[5371.78 --> 5373.24] Like, are you freaking kidding me? +[5373.24 --> 5376.36] So sad. +[5376.60 --> 5376.80] Yeah. +[5377.32 --> 5381.26] Speaking of things that are sad, Steam releases Canadian pricing. +[5381.94 --> 5385.28] Some game prices increased, others remain the same, +[5385.64 --> 5388.96] and some games currently unavailable for purchase in Canada. +[5389.46 --> 5389.78] Oh. +[5390.12 --> 5394.56] I don't know what the issue is with Steam pricing just being in US dollars. +[5394.84 --> 5395.92] I mean, maybe, you know what? +[5396.24 --> 5397.98] Great opportunity to do a Twitter Blitz. +[5397.98 --> 5405.36] Guys, hit me at LinusTech, and let me know if you can think of some reason why it's not perfectly okay. +[5405.68 --> 5411.94] If, ultimately, they're just going to be converting the pricing and then displaying it in your own native currency anyway, +[5412.42 --> 5415.26] why it matters at all that they don't just have US pricing. +[5415.26 --> 5423.50] Because at least if it's a straight conversion, it's ultimately up to my credit card company how much I'm paying in terms of fees, +[5423.58 --> 5429.96] which is usually not more than a couple percent over whatever the nominal exchange rate is that you would get at the bank. +[5430.48 --> 5432.46] Why do I need them to display it in my currency? +[5432.56 --> 5434.28] I mean, they were already displaying a conversion. +[5436.50 --> 5436.96] Well, okay. +[5437.04 --> 5438.50] No, no, I don't think they did, actually. +[5438.68 --> 5439.08] But whatever. +[5439.22 --> 5441.92] Xe.com is not exactly a difficult site to remember. +[5441.92 --> 5446.96] So before this, you just purchased it in US dollars, right? +[5447.40 --> 5447.56] Yeah. +[5447.68 --> 5456.58] And then my credit card statement would say, you know, 5721 Canadian, 5499 US in brackets. +[5456.84 --> 5462.60] Now, you said that there were some games that were no longer available after this? +[5462.70 --> 5462.76] Yeah. +[5463.34 --> 5465.22] I don't understand why that would be the case. +[5465.44 --> 5469.60] They're probably going to get it fixed, but my guess would be that they rolled it out, +[5469.60 --> 5477.34] and it would have to do with something like agreeing with the game developer on what the price is going to be in the new currency, for example. +[5477.78 --> 5479.58] Because a lot of stuff is not... +[5479.58 --> 5480.78] Actually, you're American. +[5480.90 --> 5481.60] You might not know this. +[5481.84 --> 5484.60] A lot of stuff is not done just on a straight conversion. +[5484.82 --> 5489.38] For example, books are notorious for this because they'll have a cover price, right? +[5489.54 --> 5489.66] Yep. +[5489.66 --> 5492.66] And you probably don't even have the Canadian cover price. +[5492.70 --> 5494.84] It shows both on our books. +[5494.84 --> 5495.10] Okay. +[5495.18 --> 5496.20] You guys get both as well. +[5496.20 --> 5500.44] So you'll see 499 US, 799 Canadian sometimes. +[5500.82 --> 5501.04] Mm-hmm. +[5501.36 --> 5502.40] Significant price difference. +[5502.44 --> 5505.38] I just thought that was the tax for living further north. +[5505.50 --> 5505.92] I don't know. +[5506.16 --> 5506.42] I just... +[5506.42 --> 5506.60] No. +[5507.02 --> 5507.26] No. +[5507.34 --> 5508.02] It's just... +[5508.02 --> 5509.20] It's based on... +[5509.20 --> 5515.12] Some companies actually lock their exchange rate as rarely as over multiple years. +[5515.44 --> 5515.54] Yeah. +[5515.54 --> 5517.20] I remember back in 2000... +[5517.94 --> 5518.34] Shoot. +[5518.34 --> 5524.68] I think it was 2008, 2009, when the currency was all over the place. +[5524.68 --> 5525.76] Um... +[5525.76 --> 5531.60] And I forget who it was, but there was one Canadian company that only redid their exchange rates, +[5531.64 --> 5534.86] I think, once every two years or five years or something like that. +[5535.08 --> 5540.28] And they basically sat there losing money for, I think, six to ten months before they finally +[5540.28 --> 5542.60] wised up and went, oh, this isn't going to change. +[5542.60 --> 5544.82] So we should probably do something about our pricing. +[5545.82 --> 5546.50] Um... +[5546.50 --> 5547.10] So... +[5547.10 --> 5547.44] So, yeah. +[5547.52 --> 5553.92] NBA 2K15 went up 16.6% from $59.99 to $69.99, um... +[5553.92 --> 5554.82] Which isn't that reasonable. +[5555.00 --> 5560.32] Overall, the transition looks more smooth than when they added Euros in 2008, um... +[5560.32 --> 5564.20] Where many games retained the same numerical price, but just in Euros. +[5565.24 --> 5565.68] Which... +[5565.68 --> 5566.54] I'm curious. +[5566.54 --> 5572.74] On Steam, when you download, uh, in Canadian packets over Steam, does it download just as +[5572.74 --> 5574.16] fast as you would expect? +[5574.28 --> 5576.46] Like, does it saturate your bandwidth there? +[5576.62 --> 5576.86] Does it? +[5576.94 --> 5577.08] Okay. +[5577.54 --> 5577.74] Yep. +[5577.82 --> 5579.38] I mean, we're so close. +[5579.46 --> 5581.72] I mean, we're, we're like, I can spit to Valve. +[5581.94 --> 5583.02] I'm closer to Valve than you. +[5583.60 --> 5584.04] Like... +[5584.04 --> 5584.40] Yeah. +[5585.04 --> 5589.46] In terms of server locations, there's no, there's no penalty for the border, and the north to +[5589.46 --> 5591.04] south connections are excellent. +[5591.36 --> 5591.58] Okay. +[5591.58 --> 5592.22] Yeah. +[5592.28 --> 5597.96] Like, I can play, I can play on Washington-based servers, uh, in, in a game with very, very +[5597.96 --> 5598.38] low ping. +[5598.64 --> 5602.86] We always joke about, Jeremy on our podcast, uh, lives in Vancouver, and we always joke +[5602.86 --> 5608.22] that whenever he has Skype issues, it's because of Border Patrol blocking packets across. +[5608.70 --> 5608.98] Blocking packets. +[5609.30 --> 5609.44] Yeah. +[5609.58 --> 5614.30] The scary thing is that normally I would kind of laugh at you, and I'd go, ha ha, Ryan, +[5614.36 --> 5615.20] that's a funny joke. +[5615.20 --> 5620.02] Except I, uh, with all the stuff that's been going on with the NSA in the last year, I wouldn't +[5620.02 --> 5623.90] even be that surprised to find out that someone is actually manually sorting packets at the +[5623.90 --> 5624.18] border. +[5624.96 --> 5627.02] Well, no, this one's fine, this one's fine, this one's fine. +[5627.08 --> 5628.10] Nope, not that Linus guy. +[5628.22 --> 5628.80] This one's fine. +[5629.42 --> 5629.60] Yeah. +[5629.84 --> 5632.12] Not, not this guy who's teabagging the other player. +[5632.22 --> 5634.56] Let's just go ahead and turn these packets off right now. +[5635.08 --> 5636.24] Yeah, jackass Canadian. +[5636.24 --> 5638.84] All right. +[5638.96 --> 5643.14] So I've got one more topic that, um, I'd like to discuss a little bit. +[5643.48 --> 5646.74] Uh, this was actually posted by FNOD on the forum. +[5646.74 --> 5651.40] Uh, the original source was a little site you may or may not have heard of before called +[5651.40 --> 5654.30] pcpr.com or something like that. +[5654.56 --> 5655.04] I don't know. +[5655.12 --> 5657.88] Some, some American guy runs it or something like that. +[5657.88 --> 5663.22] Um, ARM and TSMC apparently headed for 10 nanometer. +[5664.22 --> 5664.96] Dun, dun, dun. +[5665.28 --> 5665.96] What does this mean? +[5666.12 --> 5666.94] What's, what's going to happen? +[5667.58 --> 5669.52] Man, you know, it doesn't mean jack. +[5669.72 --> 5673.06] Uh, what the problem is, so. +[5673.34 --> 5674.34] Telling Richard Huddy on you. +[5674.34 --> 5680.60] Yeah, well, TSMC is a manufacturing facility that makes chips for just about everybody. +[5680.76 --> 5683.44] AMD on the graphics side and on the processor side somewhat. +[5683.96 --> 5688.82] Um, and also Nvidia and also Apple and others and everybody, right? +[5689.20 --> 5692.62] Um, their problem, their main competitor is actually Intel, right? +[5692.66 --> 5695.40] Intel fab stuff primarily for themselves. +[5695.40 --> 5697.36] They have a couple of odd jobs every once in a while. +[5697.36 --> 5705.32] So the, the issue is, is we're at 22 nanometer today on Intel's front and we're still kind +[5705.32 --> 5710.28] of stuck on 28, kind of 20 nanometer, uh, on TSMC. +[5710.66 --> 5711.02] The Apple. +[5711.26 --> 5712.48] Intel's rolled out 14. +[5713.38 --> 5713.76] Sort of. +[5713.80 --> 5714.22] Right. +[5714.36 --> 5716.16] Broadwell is, is 14. +[5716.16 --> 5716.52] Right. +[5716.54 --> 5720.88] And it's just, I guess it did kind of just actually start shipping in notebooks, uh, this +[5720.88 --> 5721.20] month. +[5721.20 --> 5722.20] So it did, you're right. +[5722.58 --> 5728.94] Um, but in the, in the 20 nanometer from TSMC is kind of a, it's an odd conversation +[5728.94 --> 5734.64] because it's very limited production and it didn't have the benefits that a lot of people +[5734.64 --> 5736.60] would expect it to see for high performance parts. +[5736.60 --> 5743.44] That's why the Apple a eight is being manufactured on it, but no Nvidia or AMD GPUs are being manufactured +[5743.44 --> 5743.76] on it. +[5743.82 --> 5747.10] Even though you would think those would be the perfect ripe example for what should need +[5747.10 --> 5750.80] a, a, uh, a die size decrease and process. +[5751.20 --> 5754.00] Lower power consumption, faster switching speeds. +[5754.00 --> 5756.02] That sounds right up the GPUs alley. +[5756.16 --> 5756.50] Right. +[5756.70 --> 5762.18] So, uh, what, what needs to happen now is TSMC and those other groups are going into FinFET +[5762.18 --> 5767.04] production, which is Trigate 3D transistors, which is what Intel introduced in 22 nanometer. +[5767.04 --> 5774.38] Um, and there are still, they're still prepping like their 16 nanometer FinFET parts, uh, TSMC +[5774.38 --> 5776.08] and Global Foundries and those guys are. +[5776.08 --> 5778.90] Um, and that will be kind of the first iteration of it. +[5778.92 --> 5782.94] And so I think what happened was, uh, this was at, uh, on a Digitime story, it kind of +[5782.94 --> 5787.78] came out around the ARM TechCon convention that was happening out in Santa Clara that they +[5787.78 --> 5793.26] were, Hey, look, we're on track for our 10 nanometer, um, taping out possibly in the fourth +[5793.26 --> 5794.16] quarter of 2015. +[5794.16 --> 5800.52] And so what a tape out means is that you have, you have manufactured a chip to a specification +[5800.52 --> 5801.88] that you approve of. +[5801.88 --> 5805.90] And so they can begin the full manufacturing process. +[5805.90 --> 5811.22] Uh, and sometimes you'll tape out two or three revisions before you actually start the +[5811.22 --> 5812.08] manufacturing process. +[5812.08 --> 5818.02] So, you know, they're talking about end of 2015 for 10 nanometer, which means realistically +[5818.02 --> 5822.48] mid to late 2016 before you actually see parts using that. +[5822.48 --> 5826.96] Um, but I think we should be more concerned about how quickly they get to 16 nanometer +[5826.96 --> 5828.00] and what that actually does. +[5828.00 --> 5833.20] Will we, you know, some people predicted that, you know, Maxwell, NVIDIA's new chip is built +[5833.20 --> 5834.10] on 28 nanometer. +[5834.68 --> 5839.18] Um, we all thought of, well, six months ago that it would be built on 20 nanometer. +[5839.18 --> 5839.74] Right. +[5839.74 --> 5844.96] That wasn't the case, uh, whether it be capacity issues, whether it be technology issues, some, +[5845.20 --> 5846.70] for some reason it wasn't built on 20. +[5846.82 --> 5849.80] We, I think at this point, we all kind of assume that they're just going to wait. +[5849.92 --> 5854.26] They're going to, to, to leapfrog 20 and go down to 16 whenever that becomes available. +[5854.82 --> 5860.20] Um, AMD, the rumor is now that their next chip will actually be using 20 nanometer. +[5860.20 --> 5864.52] And so we'll be able to see a comparison of what a chip can do one way or the other. +[5865.04 --> 5874.40] Uh, and we may actually start to see AMD and NVIDIA on opposing nodes of, uh, production. +[5874.94 --> 5875.00] Right. +[5875.08 --> 5875.22] Yeah. +[5875.22 --> 5876.10] That'll be really interesting. +[5876.22 --> 5880.26] I mean, that hasn't happened for an extended period of time in a long time. +[5880.26 --> 5887.22] So with AMD at a lower, at a, at a smaller manufacturing process than NVIDIA for potentially months. +[5887.44 --> 5887.82] Right. +[5888.18 --> 5888.36] Yeah. +[5888.36 --> 5890.48] It's, it would be very interesting. +[5890.66 --> 5897.50] I, I, Josh, who is on our show at PC pro.com, he is a manufacturing guy. +[5897.62 --> 5899.24] He knows all about this stuff way more than I do. +[5899.40 --> 5904.48] And his kind of theory is that the 20 nanometer probably doesn't offer a very big power consumption +[5904.48 --> 5907.40] or clock frequency advantage over 28 nanometer. +[5907.50 --> 5908.42] It's probably very small. +[5908.42 --> 5914.78] Uh, and so the complication of moving your product from 28 down to 20 may not be worthwhile +[5914.78 --> 5915.88] in the long run. +[5916.10 --> 5916.50] Right. +[5916.50 --> 5921.34] So that would be NVIDIA was saying that the, that the cost benefit didn't look like it +[5921.34 --> 5922.78] made a ton of sense for them as well. +[5923.12 --> 5923.52] Yeah. +[5923.52 --> 5926.64] Uh, because you know, when they're, when they're, when they're talking about a cost benefit, +[5926.64 --> 5931.50] they're not just really talking about the dollar benefit, but the dollar they have to spend +[5931.50 --> 5932.08] per wafer. +[5932.22 --> 5937.72] What your yield is on that wafer determines what each GPU's value is and then how much time +[5937.72 --> 5943.24] you have to spend, which is, you know, engineering money to convert it down to 20 nanometer and +[5943.24 --> 5947.50] fix it. +[5947.50 --> 5950.74] And they were able to build, I think a pretty compelling part based on it. +[5950.74 --> 5955.82] So yeah, I'm, I'm surprised at how strong GTX nine 80 is. +[5955.88 --> 5959.40] I wasn't, I wasn't necessarily expecting them to be able to do that much with it without +[5959.40 --> 5960.00] a die shrink. +[5960.20 --> 5966.42] Um, so as much as it's, as it's not what I really wanted, which was a GM 200. +[5969.58 --> 5969.98] Yeah. +[5970.20 --> 5971.16] Girl can dream, right? +[5971.16 --> 5973.58] Uh, it's, it's not a bad part. +[5973.76 --> 5974.00] Just have to wait for 210. +[5974.56 --> 5975.56] Just have to wait for 210. +[5975.82 --> 5977.12] Just wait for GM 210. +[5977.28 --> 5977.76] It'll be fine. +[5979.24 --> 5979.76] Fair enough. +[5979.78 --> 5980.52] I'm sure it'll be here soon. +[5981.28 --> 5981.94] Yeah, I'm sure. +[5982.22 --> 5982.90] I don't know. +[5983.66 --> 5984.22] All right. +[5984.28 --> 5986.86] Well, I think that's, um, that's pretty much it. +[5986.92 --> 5987.92] I, what time is it? +[5988.00 --> 5989.10] Your time right now? +[5989.10 --> 5990.54] It is nine 18. +[5990.54 --> 5991.26] My 18. +[5991.68 --> 5996.30] Well, I'm sure, uh, I'm sure your wife is going to be super thrilled with me and I'll +[5996.30 --> 5999.28] get, you know, more glares the next time I run into her at an event. +[5999.28 --> 6000.92] But no, she was super nice. +[6001.12 --> 6001.94] She likes you now. +[6001.98 --> 6004.06] Now that she knows you, she's totally fine with it. +[6004.10 --> 6006.72] I said, Hey, I'm going to go be on Linus's show on Friday. +[6006.90 --> 6007.36] Is that cool? +[6007.44 --> 6008.58] She said, Oh yeah, that's fine. +[6009.30 --> 6012.26] Um, you know, you did make your show earlier. +[6012.36 --> 6013.56] It used to be much later. +[6014.54 --> 6019.40] Um, didn't you use to do a 7 PM Pacific instead of 7 PM Eastern? +[6019.68 --> 6020.56] Yeah, I did. +[6020.56 --> 6024.20] That was way more complicated because then I was getting sleepy by the end of it. +[6024.30 --> 6024.40] Right. +[6024.46 --> 6025.84] I'm, I'm an old man. +[6025.90 --> 6026.48] I get tired. +[6027.38 --> 6027.98] All right. +[6027.98 --> 6029.94] Well guys, thanks so much for watching. +[6030.08 --> 6033.04] Thanks to our sponsors, Linda.com and phantom glass. +[6033.04 --> 6037.30] And thanks to our special guest, Mr. Ryan Shrout from PC per for those of you who are just +[6037.30 --> 6041.42] tuning in later on in the show here, Ryan, do you want to give them one more sort of where +[6041.42 --> 6042.22] to find you? +[6042.48 --> 6043.16] I absolutely do. +[6043.24 --> 6043.84] I absolutely do. +[6043.92 --> 6046.84] So PC per.com is our website with all of our reviews. +[6047.26 --> 6048.22] I'm a self promoter. +[6048.22 --> 6051.78] I'm going to, I'm going to plug my YouTube channel as well because we're on there. +[6052.04 --> 6053.98] Look, you have so many more subscribers than me. +[6054.04 --> 6055.14] It's not even a competition. +[6055.14 --> 6060.62] If you want to watch videos about PC hardware, our channel is youtube.com slash PC per. +[6060.94 --> 6063.76] I mean, we don't do as cool of videos as Linus does. +[6063.92 --> 6067.62] He doesn't walk around on his roof with a hundred foot USB cable. +[6067.88 --> 6068.46] I did. +[6068.58 --> 6069.86] I know I don't, I didn't do that. +[6070.20 --> 6073.36] I did run a 500 foot ethernet cable once. +[6073.88 --> 6074.26] Okay. +[6074.42 --> 6075.62] That worked successfully. +[6075.88 --> 6077.00] That's almost as cool. +[6077.00 --> 6079.10] Uh, and it got run over by a lawnmower. +[6079.74 --> 6080.50] So there was that. +[6081.14 --> 6082.10] And then it didn't work. +[6082.30 --> 6083.10] That's unfortunate. +[6083.40 --> 6083.74] Go figure. +[6084.18 --> 6085.26] So just those places. +[6085.40 --> 6088.08] If you don't, I mean, if you want to find me on Twitter, it's just Ryan at Ryan Shrout +[6088.08 --> 6088.70] as well. +[6088.78 --> 6091.82] So, uh, anytime you want to have me back on, this is fun. +[6091.86 --> 6092.14] It's cool. +[6092.20 --> 6093.32] I like talking with different group. +[6093.38 --> 6097.20] I did see a couple of people in the Twitter chat asking me to tell you all about the wonders +[6097.20 --> 6097.98] of IRC. +[6097.98 --> 6100.24] Oh, oh, okay. +[6100.34 --> 6100.54] Yeah. +[6100.64 --> 6102.60] The, cause you guys use IRC for your chat, right? +[6102.86 --> 6103.44] Yeah, we do. +[6103.68 --> 6107.80] I think it's part of our partner agreement with Twitch that we don't use alternate chats. +[6108.00 --> 6108.40] Fair enough. +[6108.70 --> 6109.02] Fair enough. +[6109.04 --> 6112.78] So there's one reason why we might do things the way that we do things. +[6113.10 --> 6117.38] Something that I think viewers a lot of time don't realize is that there's probably a hundred +[6117.38 --> 6121.74] reasons behind the scenes why we do something the way that we do it versus what's immediately +[6121.74 --> 6123.72] obvious and apparent. +[6124.44 --> 6127.02] But, uh, yeah, that's, that's, that's the reason we don't do it. +[6127.08 --> 6127.54] And you know what? +[6127.54 --> 6129.52] Twitch chat isn't that bad. +[6129.86 --> 6132.16] I think that I enjoy watching it. +[6132.22 --> 6133.74] I enjoy participating in it. +[6133.74 --> 6135.28] So I I'm in there. +[6135.38 --> 6138.74] I, I, my name's popping up every once in a while here and there we go. +[6138.74 --> 6142.32] So I see a lot of people tweeting about how they hate you and they never want to see you +[6142.32 --> 6142.96] as a guest again. +[6143.18 --> 6143.68] So I understand. +[6143.80 --> 6144.80] I know I get it all the time. +[6144.96 --> 6149.14] I see why you're, I see why you're trying to invite yourself back to try and like counter +[6149.14 --> 6149.82] what they're saying. +[6149.88 --> 6151.54] No, we'll definitely have you back again, Ryan. +[6151.62 --> 6152.38] Thank you very much. +[6152.78 --> 6154.42] And, uh, good night, everyone. +[6154.60 --> 6155.24] We'll see you again. +[6155.34 --> 6157.36] Same bad time, same bad channel next week. +[6157.72 --> 6161.56] Um, I actually don't remember who our guest is for next week, but I think we might be +[6161.56 --> 6164.26] having Paul and Kyle formerly of new egg TV back. +[6164.40 --> 6167.18] So, uh, stay tuned for that and good night, everybody. +[6167.18 --> 6167.64] Sorry. +[6172.28 --> 6172.64] Sorry. +[6172.68 --> 6177.30] It takes a while to switch scenes because, uh, Oh, Oh, and I've got this thing over here. +[6177.38 --> 6184.88] Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. +[6184.88 --> 6185.58] Why is this? +[6185.58 --> 6185.88] Why is this? +[6185.88 --> 6189.26] Why is this the one with, I got to just delete the one with no audio at some point. +[6190.18 --> 6192.28] That would make a lot more sense. +[6192.92 --> 6197.38] Cause I keep accidentally putting it here and then I never check it because I'm usually like +[6197.38 --> 6201.48] throwing myself into my chair here to get the show started. +[6201.48 --> 6208.06] Today I arrived back at the office at two 30 and I shot an unboxing as well as a full +[6208.06 --> 6212.16] Linus tech tips and then some B roll for another one before starting the show. +[6212.40 --> 6214.38] So like, it's just, you did good. +[6214.46 --> 6215.12] You did fine. +[6215.12 --> 6219.28] We didn't, we didn't, we didn't need a, uh, a Skype pre-test. +[6219.40 --> 6220.26] We got this stuff down. +[6220.68 --> 6221.30] Yeah, that's right. +[6222.66 --> 6223.02] Skype. +[6223.12 --> 6223.74] What could go wrong? +[6223.82 --> 6224.78] Nothing goes wrong with Skype. +[6225.36 --> 6226.06] And turn. diff --git a/The WAN Show

Christmas here at the Lioness Media Group offices +[12.00 --> 16.00] because we didn't get to spend Christmas with each other because we had a day off. +[16.00 --> 21.00] Not because I thought that was a good idea, but because of laws and government... +[21.00 --> 22.00] Regulations. +[22.00 --> 27.00] Regulations, and apparently that's how it has to work, so everyone wasn't at the office yesterday. +[27.00 --> 32.00] So we decided to continue our Christmas a little bit. +[32.00 --> 36.00] That's why we have the lower third still all Christmassy and I'm still wearing a Christmas sweater. +[36.00 --> 38.00] A Zelda Christmas sweater, no less. +[38.00 --> 39.00] Yup. +[39.00 --> 41.00] So we've got a lot of great topics for you guys today. +[41.00 --> 43.00] Actually, we don't have a lot of great topics for you guys today. +[43.00 --> 46.00] It's kind of... it's Christmas and not a whole lot happened. +[46.00 --> 47.00] Nope. +[47.00 --> 50.00] The tech industry is gearing up for CES. +[50.00 --> 51.00] Pretty much. +[51.00 --> 55.00] Nothing got released this week, but we'll do our best. +[55.00 --> 58.00] So actually, there are a couple big news items. +[58.00 --> 64.00] So hackers versus gamers, with Kim.com being Santa coming to the rescue. +[64.00 --> 66.00] Not that I'm saying anything about his weight. +[66.00 --> 71.00] Sony screened the interview yesterday, Christmas Day. +[71.00 --> 73.00] Nothing exploded yet. +[73.00 --> 77.00] You had to think about that? +[77.00 --> 78.00] Well, you said yet. +[78.00 --> 79.00] Oh. +[79.00 --> 83.00] So I was like, uh, like it's a good thing, but like we just hope that it's going to stay up here. +[83.00 --> 86.00] So it's like the like dance. +[86.00 --> 87.00] Yeah. +[87.00 --> 90.00] Hopefully it stays this way. +[90.00 --> 91.00] Yeah. +[91.00 --> 92.00] Okay. +[92.00 --> 93.00] What else we got? +[93.00 --> 94.00] Yeah. +[94.00 --> 101.00] Um, work has rumored, maybe, to have begun on a new Nintendo console. +[101.00 --> 106.00] Um, and we're going to cover the top 10 videos from Linus Tech Tips in 2014. +[106.00 --> 108.00] And the top 10 videos may surprise you. +[108.00 --> 110.00] We don't actually do top 10 lists very often. +[110.00 --> 112.00] We could also do the top 10 of TechWiki. +[112.00 --> 113.00] Yes, we could. +[113.00 --> 117.00] And the top 10 of Super Fun, which would be like the whole channel. +[117.00 --> 118.00] The whole channel. +[118.00 --> 119.00] Doesn't that have a lot of videos? +[119.00 --> 123.00] Oh, we have a new Super Fun coming this week that is just going to blow your minds. +[123.00 --> 124.00] I hope. +[124.00 --> 125.00] Or something. +[125.00 --> 126.00] Anyway. +[126.00 --> 127.00] Hopefully. +[127.00 --> 128.00] Intro time. +[143.00 --> 144.00] Intro time. +[144.00 --> 145.00] Intro time. +[145.00 --> 146.00] Intro time. +[146.00 --> 147.00] Intro time. +[147.00 --> 148.00] Intro time. +[148.00 --> 149.00] Intro time. +[149.00

+[155.00 --> 156.00] And Loot Crate. +[156.00 --> 157.00] Get cool things online. +[157.00 --> 158.00] And do a good job of it. +[158.00 --> 159.00] Yeah. +[159.00 --> 161.00] And Loot Crate. +[161.00 --> 162.00] Get cool things online. +[162.00 --> 164.00] And do a good job of it. +[164.00 --> 166.00] Well, you mainly get them in real life. +[166.00 --> 167.00] Yeah. +[167.00 --> 168.00] Yes. +[168.00 --> 169.00] Some of them will be digital. +[169.00 --> 170.00] You sign up online. +[170.00 --> 171.00] Yes. +[171.00 --> 172.00] At Loot Crate.com. +[172.00 --> 174.00] And hopefully, for that matter, we should go back to Lynda first. +[174.00 --> 176.00] Because you actually learn in real life. +[176.00 --> 177.00] Yes. +[177.00 --> 178.00] But you do it online. +[178.00 --> 179.00] It's like the internet. +[179.00 --> 181.00] And you sign up online. +[181.00 --> 182.00] It's the internet, man. +[182.00 --> 183.00] At Lynda.com. +[183.00 --> 185.00] And things that aren't the internet. +[185.00 --> 186.00] Whoa! +[186.00 --> 187.00] Holy crap! +[187.00 --> 188.00] Linus Tech Tips is going to CES! +[188.00 --> 189.00] How unusual! +[189.00 --> 191.00] So surprising! +[191.00 --> 193.00] That's the first time this has ever happened! +[193.00 --> 194.00] This year. +[194.00 --> 195.00] That year. +[195.00 --> 196.00] That year. +[196.00 --> 197.00] Yeah. +[197.00 --> 198.00] Next year. +[198.00 --> 199.00] In 2015. +[199.00 --> 201.00] So, from January 5th to the 10th, you guys can expect to see a Fantasmic. +[201.00 --> 205.00] Amount of content from the International CES. +[205.00 --> 208.00] And apparently, oops, apparently I called the stream the wrong thing today. +[208.00 --> 210.00] I think you have to change it in dashboard. +[210.00 --> 212.00] I don't think it actually changes if you do it there. +[212.00 --> 213.00] Oh, for crying out loud. +[213.00 --> 214.00] Yay, Twitch! +[214.00 --> 215.00] I love Twitch. +[215.00 --> 219.00] And we're sponsored this year by Phantom Glass. +[219.00 --> 222.00] Their whole slogan is, the last screen protector you'll ever need. +[222.00 --> 225.00] And what I have to say about that is, that is an outright lie. +[225.00 --> 231.00] Because you probably won't keep your phone as long as you could keep your Phantom Glass screen protector. +[231.00 --> 235.00] And then you will need another one for your new, different phone. +[235.00 --> 238.00] The only type, the last type of screen protector you'll ever need. +[238.00 --> 239.00] That could be true. +[239.00 --> 241.00] So go to store.phantomglass.com to check it out. +[241.00 --> 243.00] Gorilla Glass screen coverage. +[243.00 --> 248.00] Unless people make like force fields, screen protectors. +[248.00 --> 250.00] That would be cool. +[250.00 --> 252.00] I'd be okay with that, I think. +[252.00 --> 255.00] It's completely ignored. +[255.00 --> 262.00] I'm changing the name of the broadcast, dang it. +[262.00 --> 266.00] Alright, so what are we gonna kick things off with today? +[266.00 --> 269.00] I don't know man, should we just like screw it all and do the top ten last sectors videos first? +[269.00 --> 271.00] Do you wanna just do that? +[271.00 --> 272.00] Kinda. +[272.00 --> 274.00] Just go for it. +[274.00 --> 277.00] Alright, so I'm letting you guys into my dashboard here. +[277.00 --> 278.00] Woah. +[278.00 --> 281.00] Yeah, you guys are gonna see the dashboard. +[281.00 --> 282.00] So hold on a second. +[282.00 --> 286.00] One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. +[286.00 --> 287.00] Alright. +[287.00 --> 289.00] Here we go. +[289.00 --> 293.00] So I'm gonna copy this into, hopefully this will work. +[293.00 --> 294.00] I have no idea. +[294.00 --> 299.00] I think it'll work, but it might totally break. +[299.00 --> 300.00] Oh wow. +[300.00 --> 301.00] That worked a lot better than I expected. +[301.00 --> 302.00] Control click to follow link. +[302.00 --> 303.00] Look at that, just like that. +[303.00 --> 304.00] Alright. +[304.00 --> 307.00] So what I wanna do is I wanna make these all big. +[307.00 --> 309.00] So that we can't see them all at the same time. +[309.00 --> 310.00] Uh huh. +[310.00 --> 311.00] Yeah. +[311.00 --> 312.00] Oh wow. +[312.00 --> 313.00] Totally not readable at all. +[313.00 --> 314.00] That's super broken. +[314.00 --> 319.00] Alright, well you'll be able to see the first two right off the bat. +[319.00 --> 322.00] There's still peanut butter and jam on my face. +[322.00 --> 324.00] That's not gonna make sense for a while, but there is. +[324.00 --> 329.00] Alright, so the most watched videos of 2014 on Linus Tech Tips. +[329.00 --> 338.00] Apparently, you guys, you know, for all the people who commented on our RGB keyboard review video, +[338.00 --> 346.00] about how RGB keyboards are stupid and pointless and no one should care about RGB all over their keyboards. +[346.00 --> 347.00] What's that? +[347.00 --> 356.00] The number of people who watched our original CES 2014 coverage of Corsair's RGB keyboard was pretty amazing. +[356.00 --> 358.00] This year we had, is this gonna open? +[358.00 --> 359.00] What is it? +[359.00 --> 360.00] What is it doing? +[360.00 --> 361.00] I don't know. +[361.00 --> 365.00] Why is my laptop broken? +[365.00 --> 369.00] I hate you laptop. +[369.00 --> 371.00] It's Christmas everyone. +[371.00 --> 377.00] Oh, it's trying to open the dashboard. +[377.00 --> 379.00] I see. +[379.00 --> 380.00] Oh. +[380.00 --> 385.00] So how am I gonna open the actual video as we, videos as we go? +[385.00 --> 386.00] Oh, I know. +[386.00 --> 387.00] Alright. +[387.00 --> 388.00] Here we go. +[388.00 --> 389.00] Alright. +[389.00 --> 390.00] That's a loopy way to do it. +[390.00 --> 392.00] Linus's screen, so it's gonna play an ad. +[392.00 --> 403.00] So 579,000 of you got to appreciate the video demoing functionality that to this day, Corsair has not quite yet actually delivered. +[403.00 --> 405.00] So, some of these things work. +[405.00 --> 407.00] Like that was a ripple effect that it's showing off there. +[407.00 --> 413.00] Now, to be clear guys, something that we didn't tell you guys at the time, but that we did know when we were filming this, +[413.00 --> 417.00] is that keyboard is just a K70. +[417.00 --> 420.00] Like, it does not work at all. +[420.00 --> 424.00] It doesn't even work as a keyboard anymore, if I recall correctly. +[424.00 --> 425.00] Yeah. +[425.00 --> 436.00] All it is, the entire inside of its guts have been ripped out and it's been replaced with the custom controller that Corsair was using to enable the lighting effects. +[436.00 --> 438.00] That, like, LED light board controller. +[438.00 --> 443.00] And then it has, like, I believe there are prototype Cherry MX RGB switches in it. +[443.00 --> 444.00] Yeah. +[444.00 --> 449.00] And it's just got, like, a pre-programmed, hard-coded series of patterns in it. +[449.00 --> 450.00] It is not programmable at all. +[450.00 --> 456.00] So, when people were wondering, why did it take so long for this to be released? +[456.00 --> 463.00] The answer is because it wasn't ready at all when they were first showing it off. +[463.00 --> 464.00] Oh, nice. +[464.00 --> 465.00] So, there you go. +[465.00 --> 469.00] There's our first, there's our tenth most viewed video this year. +[469.00 --> 471.00] Half a million views on that one. +[471.00 --> 476.00] Next up, we've got, if this page ever loads. +[476.00 --> 478.00] Everyone in chat is like, old logo! +[478.00 --> 480.00] Yeah, I know, right? +[480.00 --> 482.00] Ah, next up. +[482.00 --> 483.00] This is one, you know what? +[483.00 --> 490.00] This list is almost going to end up being like a, like a my favorite products of 2014. +[490.00 --> 494.00] Because you guys seem to mostly agree with me about this kind of stuff. +[494.00 --> 499.00] This is the LG 34UM95. +[499.00 --> 506.00] And this is the monitor, when the ad is done playing, that changed my mind about the importance +[506.00 --> 508.00] of 4K for now. +[508.00 --> 514.00] Because 4K will matter once the scaling gets figured out by the OS makers. +[514.00 --> 517.00] And not just, hey look, I'm live on Twitch. +[517.00 --> 518.00] There's a little notification there. +[518.00 --> 520.00] And not, and not, not just Apple. +[520.00 --> 524.00] Like, Apple's already kind of got it figured out as long as they scale up proportionally. +[524.00 --> 530.00] So that's one of the rumored reasons why they went with 5K on the new iMac versus going +[530.00 --> 531.00] with a 4K display. +[531.00 --> 539.00] Because that way it's exactly two times the resolution of the previous 2560 by 1440 iMac. +[539.00 --> 540.00] So there you go. +[540.00 --> 542.00] Or four times the number of pixels. +[542.00 --> 543.00] Yeah. +[543.00 --> 548.00] So this, this though is, was a really, really different monitor experience. +[548.00 --> 550.00] In fact, it's been an amazing year for monitors. +[550.00 --> 551.00] Yes, it has actually. +[551.00 --> 553.00] This year, we've seen ultra wide. +[553.00 --> 555.00] We've seen curved. +[555.00 --> 560.00] We've seen G-Sync actually get productized, even though it was announced last year. +[560.00 --> 561.00] Yeah. +[561.00 --> 562.00] I saw an article today. +[562.00 --> 566.00] I think we're going to talk about this later on the show that, um, bloody hell, I forget +[566.00 --> 572.00] who it is, but someone is sampling or someone is shipping a monitor that will be updated to +[572.00 --> 573.00] FreeSync. +[573.00 --> 574.00] Yama. +[574.00 --> 576.00] Yama is, is shipping a monitor. +[576.00 --> 579.00] It's a 28 inch 4K that will be updated to FreeSync. +[579.00 --> 582.00] So FreeSync kinda came this year. +[582.00 --> 585.00] It'll be a firmware update later and you have to ship it in. +[585.00 --> 586.00] So it didn't come this year. +[586.00 --> 590.00] But it's, it's been an incredible, incredible year for monitors. +[590.00 --> 608.00] And this one really changed the way that I used my computer by allowing me to stretch things out horizontally with no bezel in the middle and enough vertical space that it's actually usable without me, without requiring me to scale the DPI up or down in the OS. +[608.00 --> 611.00] So very, very usable, very cool product. +[611.00 --> 614.00] And, um, yeah, I really, really liked that one. +[614.00 --> 615.00] All right. +[615.00 --> 617.00] What do we got next? +[617.00 --> 623.00] Oh, this one, I was not expecting this video to take off the way that it did. +[623.00 --> 630.00] So this is one that we actually made last year, not this year, but this year it got, let's just +[630.00 --> 638.00] have a quick look here, 587,000 views, even though it's not even a new video. +[638.00 --> 640.00] So this is high speed Ram. +[640.00 --> 641.00] Is it worth it? +[641.00 --> 647.00] And it was a test that we ran with DDR3 all the way from 1333 to 2400 megahertz. +[647.00 --> 649.00] The video has a total of 800,000 views. +[649.00 --> 650.00] Crazy. +[650.00 --> 651.00] Okay. +[651.00 --> 652.00] We're really determined that in games. +[652.00 --> 653.00] No, no, it is not. +[653.00 --> 654.00] know? +[654.00 --> 657.00] And it looks like a lot of people have been sharing this video around. +[657.00 --> 658.00] And you know what? +[658.00 --> 664.00] It's funny because every time we bring this up, it feels like it's a bit of a new revelation to a lot of people. +[664.00 --> 667.44] and that's why we keep flogging this dead horse. +[667.44 --> 670.12] Like that's why I did that apples to apples DDR3 +[670.12 --> 672.28] versus DDR4 comparison. +[672.28 --> 675.08] Because it continues to not matter. +[675.08 --> 678.66] In fact, DDR2 to DDR3, a lot of people who are newer +[678.66 --> 682.54] to the enthusiast gaming PC game won't remember +[682.54 --> 684.26] that that didn't matter either. +[684.26 --> 688.44] In fact, you could go all the way back to DDR1 versus DDR2 +[688.44 --> 689.88] and it didn't matter then either. +[689.88 --> 694.00] Now, with that said, the technology has changed since then. +[694.00 --> 697.50] If we'd had quad core or six core or even eight core +[697.50 --> 700.86] extreme edition processors back when we made the transition +[700.86 --> 704.62] from DDR1 to DDR2, we would have had a problem. +[704.62 --> 708.20] So it's good that the RAM is making sure it stays far enough +[708.20 --> 709.20] ahead of what we need. +[709.20 --> 711.70] It just means that you shouldn't stress yourself out over, +[711.70 --> 714.04] I have to have the latest DDR4. +[714.04 --> 715.20] Yeah, yeah. +[715.20 --> 718.82] It's like not a good idea to upgrade just for RAM. +[718.82 --> 721.44] Wow, this one really blew me away. +[721.44 --> 723.84] So this is actually the original. +[723.84 --> 730.70] Now, there's no way that this video is as good as some of the build guides that we did this year. +[730.70 --> 735.96] This is our ultimate build a better $2000 gaming and silent workstation PC. +[735.96 --> 740.34] Actually, I think this was our second build guide that we ever did. +[740.34 --> 742.20] Oh, that old intro. +[742.20 --> 743.20] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[743.20 --> 745.20] I remember him making that in the garage. +[745.20 --> 746.20] Yeah. +[746.20 --> 748.20] I remember filming this in the garage. +[748.20 --> 749.20] Yeah. +[749.20 --> 755.20] Something some of you might not know is the way that this is set up is actually so that you can navigate our build... +[755.20 --> 759.20] Okay, well, the main menu button is apparently broken, but... +[759.20 --> 766.06] The idea is that you're supposed to be able to navigate to the section that is most relevant to you at any given moment. +[766.06 --> 767.42] Oh, man. +[767.42 --> 767.84] Do you remember? +[767.84 --> 769.98] I think we still have that Twinkie box, don't we? +[771.48 --> 774.20] I don't know if it's here right now, but we do have it somewhere. +[774.22 --> 774.38] Yeah, I know. +[774.44 --> 774.86] It's somewhere. +[775.00 --> 776.20] I think the Twinkies are gone. +[776.28 --> 777.28] Oh, the Twinkies are gone. +[777.38 --> 777.84] They were so... +[778.48 --> 779.32] They were really gross. +[779.42 --> 783.06] I threw those away this year, and we had the box for over a year. +[783.06 --> 785.06] Now, something that I didn't realize... +[785.96 --> 786.88] I thought Twinkies lasted forever. +[787.04 --> 788.44] Yes, I believed that. +[788.68 --> 793.24] And the only place I ever heard that was, like, the classic joke. +[793.32 --> 795.62] There's only two things that'll survive a nuclear holocaust. +[795.86 --> 796.56] Cockroaches and Twinkies. +[796.62 --> 797.64] Cockroaches and Twinkies. +[797.86 --> 799.16] Twinkies would not survive. +[799.34 --> 799.70] No, they wouldn't. +[799.70 --> 801.06] They would go moldy, and they did. +[802.02 --> 803.72] How is that possibly a saying? +[804.16 --> 805.30] I don't understand. +[805.32 --> 807.84] I guess no one has actually kept them long enough because they ate them? +[808.22 --> 808.94] I guess so. +[809.00 --> 809.78] They are disgusting. +[809.96 --> 810.86] They're really not good. +[810.86 --> 812.86] Yeah, they're super, super... +[812.86 --> 816.30] Let's see that dude from Zombieland, and then that's, like, the only thing you want. +[816.82 --> 817.56] It was a really good movie. +[818.60 --> 819.58] This one... +[819.58 --> 823.36] This one blew me away as well, so you guys are probably going to be surprised by this. +[824.28 --> 832.78] 830,000 views this year on the Parrot AR Drone 1 unboxing and overview. +[832.94 --> 837.66] That video has a total of 2.4 million views in its lifetime. +[837.90 --> 838.62] Oh, look at this. +[838.62 --> 840.40] They've got an ad for the new V-box. +[840.40 --> 841.22] The best possible commercial for this. +[841.32 --> 842.10] I know, right? +[842.86 --> 843.90] Man, they did a good job of that. +[843.96 --> 846.04] I am really looking forward to checking out the Bebop. +[846.16 --> 848.72] They're going to be sending us one of those in the new year sometime. +[849.06 --> 849.36] Awesome. +[849.48 --> 854.50] So, guys, we are definitely going to check that out for you because as cool as the AR Drone +[854.50 --> 859.52] 1 is, it is nothing compared to what the Bebop is looking like. +[859.64 --> 859.88] Yeah. +[859.88 --> 863.98] I have no idea how this video exploded the way that it did. +[864.30 --> 866.04] I didn't work particularly hard on it. +[866.04 --> 866.80] You look so much younger. +[867.44 --> 870.10] My wife filmed this for me in the backyard. +[870.26 --> 871.56] This is from 2011. +[872.52 --> 873.26] And it just... +[873.26 --> 878.52] People keep watching it, even though the AR Drone V1 is, like, not interesting anymore. +[878.58 --> 878.68] No. +[878.88 --> 879.06] Yeah. +[879.06 --> 882.84] And not a good quadcopter by today's standards at all. +[882.84 --> 883.24] No. +[883.24 --> 885.96] I mean, it's fun to fly around. +[886.08 --> 891.70] I think we still have this one somewhere, but, like, yeah, this stuff's a lot more advanced +[891.70 --> 892.94] now. +[892.94 --> 898.00] Even just looking at the controller the guy has in that trailer that came on before this +[898.00 --> 900.02] video for the Bebop, so much better. +[900.10 --> 903.28] That's my biggest complaint, actually, about those drones is the controller, so I'm excited +[903.28 --> 904.50] to try out that Bebop one. +[904.94 --> 905.54] All right. +[906.04 --> 908.20] So, we've got a couple more Ultimate Guides. +[908.28 --> 912.00] You guys just can't get enough of these Ultimate Build Guides. +[912.22 --> 915.90] One of them was one that I really expected to do well this year. +[915.90 --> 920.90] That was the Ultimate Overkill Build Guide, where we built in the Corsair 900D. +[921.90 --> 922.28] Oh, yeah. +[922.28 --> 925.36] Yeah, that one, it's a 42-minute video. +[926.08 --> 928.90] It's by far our longest build guide, I believe. +[929.38 --> 934.78] And, man, that thing was a marathon filming session for me and Brandon. +[934.96 --> 936.08] Like, that took forever. +[936.40 --> 942.06] I still remember, in the middle of this build guide, realizing that we had already shot a +[942.06 --> 948.08] significant chunk of it, with me promising that there was going to be five radiators in +[948.08 --> 948.24] it. +[948.24 --> 953.72] And that was when I realized, like, halfway through the build, like, I just had this moment +[953.72 --> 958.30] where I just put my head in my hands when I realized that we weren't going to fit five +[958.30 --> 963.28] radiators in it because I hadn't done a test fit because we were in such a hurry to do it. +[963.28 --> 971.24] And you can't actually have two radiators in the basement and one in the front by default. +[971.24 --> 978.32] So a couple trips to Home Depot later, I figured out how I was going to come through on that commitment. +[978.32 --> 979.70] Which ended up being totally awesome. +[979.70 --> 982.18] And it ended up being totally awesome. +[982.54 --> 984.10] But, man, it was a nightmare. +[984.34 --> 985.32] So there you go. +[986.96 --> 989.52] Mid-plate mounted radiator. +[989.76 --> 993.46] Two in the bottom, one in the top, one in the back, one in the mid. +[993.82 --> 998.10] Empty space in the front because that was where that radiator was supposed to be. +[1000.48 --> 1001.46] So awesome. +[1001.46 --> 1004.08] Oh, I was so stressed. +[1004.16 --> 1008.46] So that one clocked in at 878,000 views this year. +[1008.66 --> 1011.20] And the ultimate build a better $1,500 PC. +[1011.46 --> 1014.46] This is the original ultimate build guide. +[1014.84 --> 1020.56] And it continues to get more views than most of the rest of the build guides with only the +[1020.56 --> 1023.66] 4K and overkill one exceeding it. +[1023.66 --> 1026.46] This one was actually... +[1026.46 --> 1028.56] You guys are getting a lot of behind the scenes here. +[1028.96 --> 1032.92] This one was a nightmare for its own completely different set of reasons. +[1033.34 --> 1035.46] So this is back when we were filming in the garage. +[1035.64 --> 1039.48] And before we even had a procedure for these at all. +[1039.90 --> 1042.56] So just to give you guys some idea of what's going on. +[1042.66 --> 1049.28] I'm standing on a case box in order to have enough height above our non-height adjustable table. +[1049.34 --> 1051.20] We have height adjustable tables now. +[1051.30 --> 1052.20] That makes a big difference. +[1052.20 --> 1053.72] Boxes that you're supposed to stand on. +[1053.78 --> 1053.90] Yeah. +[1053.98 --> 1054.46] Case boxes. +[1054.46 --> 1056.08] Like wooden boxes. +[1056.32 --> 1057.16] They're called Apple boxes. +[1057.86 --> 1058.10] Like... +[1058.10 --> 1059.14] Okay. +[1059.52 --> 1064.40] Something that had not occurred to me yet at this stage in the game was that I should +[1064.40 --> 1068.82] probably assemble our build guide computers before I do a build guide. +[1069.38 --> 1075.46] So nowadays, I actually build the whole thing, log everything, write a script, and then we +[1075.46 --> 1075.82] film it. +[1075.90 --> 1078.52] And the filming process, we can do these in like a day now. +[1079.10 --> 1079.70] This one? +[1080.80 --> 1081.24] Nightmare. +[1081.24 --> 1085.82] It wasn't until I got to the radiator installation. +[1085.82 --> 1091.26] So I've got the motherboard in, power supply in, like we're in pretty good shape. +[1091.32 --> 1091.96] We're humming along. +[1092.20 --> 1098.46] It wasn't until I got to the radiator installation that I realized that our H100i wasn't going to +[1098.46 --> 1099.40] fit in the case. +[1100.54 --> 1104.26] Now, the case has space for it. +[1104.26 --> 1109.02] So the compatibility listing that I found said, yes, it works. +[1109.74 --> 1110.62] And it does. +[1110.90 --> 1119.18] But you have to do it this completely different like janky way that if I had been aware that +[1119.18 --> 1123.04] that was how it was going to go down, I would have done it differently. +[1123.04 --> 1126.50] Let's see if I can find the, oh right, we have a table of contents. +[1126.80 --> 1127.06] Yes. +[1127.20 --> 1127.90] I could just use the table. +[1127.90 --> 1129.96] Teaching people how to use it and then you don't use it. +[1130.34 --> 1130.62] Okay. +[1130.70 --> 1131.36] Power supply. +[1131.90 --> 1132.26] Cooling. +[1132.30 --> 1132.70] Here we go. +[1132.76 --> 1133.16] Here we go. +[1133.64 --> 1136.80] So here's, here's, okay, look at my face. +[1136.80 --> 1143.12] Like, do I look like I was having a good time for the little while prior to this shot? +[1144.50 --> 1145.88] Not happy Linus. +[1146.00 --> 1146.72] Not good. +[1146.92 --> 1148.32] It was bad news bears. +[1148.62 --> 1154.22] So the way that we eventually ended up doing it was mounting it above the top of the case +[1154.22 --> 1156.60] because otherwise there's not enough clearance inside. +[1156.74 --> 1156.86] Yeah. +[1156.96 --> 1157.10] Yeah. +[1157.28 --> 1158.64] So you'll see. +[1158.74 --> 1158.90] Yeah. +[1158.98 --> 1159.58] So here you go. +[1159.70 --> 1161.36] This is how you're supposed to do it in this case. +[1161.40 --> 1162.20] I was like, really? +[1162.92 --> 1164.14] You have got to be kidding me. +[1164.40 --> 1165.96] Like you have got to be kidding me. +[1165.96 --> 1170.90] But at this point, we're almost all the way through filming the build guide. +[1170.90 --> 1173.14] You can see just how unimpressed you were right there. +[1173.36 --> 1175.04] After you put it down and just your face. +[1175.26 --> 1175.74] Okay, cool. +[1175.80 --> 1176.08] We're done. +[1176.24 --> 1179.76] I don't know what you actually said, but just like not stoked. +[1181.08 --> 1182.04] That was fantastic. +[1182.58 --> 1184.62] Like these ones continue to get a lot of views. +[1184.68 --> 1185.26] And you know what? +[1185.38 --> 1186.20] The old ones. +[1186.30 --> 1187.98] So this one's 41 minutes long. +[1188.22 --> 1192.16] Almost as long as Ultimate, even though it's just a pretty basic machine. +[1192.16 --> 1197.76] People still watch these and they still have a lot of value just because we showed a lot +[1197.76 --> 1201.32] of the nitty gritty details that we go through pretty quickly now. +[1201.50 --> 1206.20] Like, you know, we talk about how, oh, it's okay to have the polarity reversed on your front +[1206.20 --> 1207.00] panel switches. +[1207.58 --> 1208.72] It doesn't really matter. +[1208.84 --> 1209.40] It's no big deal. +[1209.40 --> 1211.64] Like we went into all those little details. +[1212.22 --> 1219.88] So that one delivered 833,000 views this year, which leads us into where this list gets +[1219.88 --> 1222.06] a little bit random and stupid. +[1224.88 --> 1232.96] Our third most popular video this year is one that was actually originally uploaded way back +[1232.96 --> 1235.68] in December of 2011. +[1236.24 --> 1241.02] And the story behind this one is 2011. +[1241.64 --> 1243.34] I've been working here for longer than I thought. +[1243.58 --> 1250.88] This video, this video was done because one of the product managers at NCIX, when I worked +[1250.88 --> 1259.04] there at the time, told me that I had to because she had already promised to the vendor that I was +[1259.04 --> 1260.86] going to do an unboxing of this thing. +[1260.86 --> 1266.22] So Arctic cooling, you notice the similarity between Arctic hobby and Arctic cooling in +[1266.22 --> 1270.32] the logos, Arctic cooling branched out into remote control crap. +[1271.44 --> 1277.88] And so they sent an excavator for me to unbox on the show. +[1278.02 --> 1281.98] And I was just like, fine, fine. +[1282.08 --> 1282.28] Okay. +[1282.32 --> 1285.28] If you already committed it, then fine, I'll do it. +[1285.38 --> 1288.32] And it turned out they were pretty cool, which helps a lot. +[1288.42 --> 1288.68] Yep. +[1288.84 --> 1289.08] Yep. +[1289.08 --> 1294.36] But this video, this video generated, let's have a look here. +[1294.50 --> 1297.90] So it's got 2.89 million views total. +[1297.98 --> 1299.16] No one even likes it. +[1299.40 --> 1301.08] Like that's what blows me away about this. +[1301.16 --> 1305.82] Like 945 dislikes to 3000 likes. +[1306.02 --> 1308.38] No one even likes the video. +[1308.38 --> 1310.70] And yet they watch it. +[1310.86 --> 1314.94] So this year, that one generated 1.1 million views. +[1315.04 --> 1318.88] More than almost anything that we actually produced this year. +[1318.88 --> 1324.72] Really, we just need to film more things about remote control, like excavators and stuff. +[1325.16 --> 1325.64] Unbelievable. +[1326.70 --> 1328.26] Now, number two on the list. +[1328.36 --> 1329.38] So we're almost at the end. +[1329.38 --> 1335.10] Number two on the list is actually something, finally, that we legitimately filmed this year, +[1335.44 --> 1338.84] worked really hard on, and is a freaking awesome video. +[1338.84 --> 1344.02] This is one of my favorites of all the build guides we've ever done, the ultimate 4K build guide. +[1344.02 --> 1347.94] 1.367 million views this year with 30,000 likes. +[1348.00 --> 1351.78] See, this is more like the kinds of numbers for a video that's actually good. +[1352.12 --> 1352.30] Yeah. +[1352.30 --> 1354.96] That people legitimately wanted to watch and enjoyed. +[1356.56 --> 1359.72] And this is where we really managed to cut things down on the build guide. +[1359.80 --> 1362.78] So it's only 25 minutes long, even though it's still a full build guide, +[1362.78 --> 1365.18] and it's got like lots of crazy editing and stuff in it. +[1365.26 --> 1368.32] And yeah, this one was a lot of fun. +[1368.64 --> 1371.86] Which brings us to our last one. +[1372.26 --> 1375.22] Weighing in at a massive 1.8 million views. +[1375.22 --> 1381.96] A full 500,000 views more than anything else, the Arctic Cooling Fire Truck Unboxing. +[1382.66 --> 1388.86] Which has a total of 3.5 million views overall. +[1389.54 --> 1393.18] And this was the same thing as that stupid excavator. +[1393.84 --> 1397.14] It's a fire truck, and I was told I had to do it. +[1397.30 --> 1398.74] Because it was already promised. +[1398.76 --> 1400.62] What happened to the tank and the boat? +[1400.82 --> 1402.62] The tank and the boat did okay. +[1402.62 --> 1407.04] But for some reason the fire truck and the excavator just took off? +[1407.18 --> 1407.36] Yeah. +[1407.68 --> 1409.08] Those ones just took off. +[1409.74 --> 1410.50] And you know what? +[1410.60 --> 1413.02] Actually, did you unbox the fire truck with me? +[1413.32 --> 1413.82] All of them. +[1414.08 --> 1414.30] Yeah. +[1414.42 --> 1416.84] Do you remember the problem we had with the fire truck? +[1417.10 --> 1418.82] Where we couldn't get it to squirt water? +[1419.16 --> 1419.34] Yeah. +[1419.88 --> 1420.14] Yeah. +[1420.26 --> 1421.46] And then we finally... +[1421.46 --> 1422.60] What was... +[1422.60 --> 1423.64] I don't remember what we did. +[1423.70 --> 1425.70] We did some janky repair to it. +[1425.70 --> 1425.90] Yeah. +[1426.30 --> 1428.12] And then we finally got it to squirt. +[1428.12 --> 1431.04] It ended up being like the most suggestive thing ever. +[1431.04 --> 1433.66] When we did finally get it working. +[1436.22 --> 1436.62] Yeah. +[1436.94 --> 1437.34] Yeah. +[1438.46 --> 1439.82] Oh, am I about to do it? +[1441.16 --> 1443.00] Or is this when we figure out it doesn't work? +[1443.48 --> 1445.38] This might be when we figure out it doesn't work. +[1445.66 --> 1447.38] Because we did everything live before. +[1448.90 --> 1449.60] Trying to shoot me. +[1449.60 --> 1450.10] Here we go. +[1450.40 --> 1450.54] Yeah. +[1450.62 --> 1451.70] Oh, oh, yeah. +[1451.98 --> 1455.64] That POV of the squirting there. +[1455.74 --> 1456.02] Yeah. +[1456.22 --> 1456.50] Yeah. +[1456.50 --> 1456.98] Yeah. +[1457.16 --> 1458.48] That's the good stuff. +[1458.98 --> 1459.84] So there you go. +[1459.98 --> 1466.10] There's some pretty unexpected stuff on the top video list of 2014 here. +[1466.92 --> 1467.92] It's 2014, right? +[1468.26 --> 1468.50] Yes. +[1468.62 --> 1468.84] Yes. +[1468.94 --> 1469.40] Thank goodness. +[1469.40 --> 1472.60] It is soon to be 2015, but then we won't have anything on the video list. +[1474.02 --> 1475.00] For very long. +[1475.22 --> 1477.00] We release a video every day and then there's CES. +[1477.10 --> 1478.56] So we'll have a lot of stuff really quickly. +[1478.72 --> 1484.28] It really does raise the question, why do we even bother trying to make good videos when +[1484.28 --> 1488.32] we can just unbox fire trucks and apparently that's all people want to see. +[1488.32 --> 1489.66] That's what people really want to see anyways. +[1490.38 --> 1490.88] Oh, dear. +[1491.08 --> 1492.80] They want to see that fire engine sport. +[1492.80 --> 1494.24] Not the like to dislike ratio though. +[1494.24 --> 1495.00] Yeah. +[1495.20 --> 1495.42] Yeah. +[1495.52 --> 1499.32] No one actually likes it, but they just, they watch it anyway somehow. +[1499.52 --> 1502.22] People in Twitch chat were like, 3000 is no one. +[1502.26 --> 1503.46] And then you go to your 4K build guide. +[1503.52 --> 1504.92] It's like 25K. +[1506.72 --> 1507.62] Actually, yes. +[1507.90 --> 1508.62] And the thing, okay. +[1508.66 --> 1513.92] The thing about the no one is that most of those 3000 likes would have been right when +[1513.92 --> 1516.02] that video was uploaded from the subscribers. +[1516.02 --> 1516.24] Yeah. +[1516.24 --> 1521.04] The subscribers, the guys that watch in the first couple of days, that's where all the +[1521.04 --> 1522.22] interaction comes from. +[1522.22 --> 1527.32] Like the loyal, the loyal viewers who are like ready for the new video and they like it. +[1527.38 --> 1529.74] They leave a comment, all that good stuff that helps us out a lot. +[1529.90 --> 1531.04] That's when that happens. +[1531.22 --> 1534.48] It's gotten almost no likes since it was first uploaded. +[1534.68 --> 1534.90] Yeah. +[1535.02 --> 1540.96] So it's just gets dislikes and views, which I guess is fine or something. +[1541.40 --> 1541.72] Yeah. +[1542.84 --> 1543.52] All right. +[1543.70 --> 1548.20] So our next topic for today, I hope that was as fun for you guys as it was for me. +[1548.28 --> 1550.26] I think people seem to like it in the chat and stuff. +[1550.50 --> 1551.64] Reminiscing about that stuff. +[1551.64 --> 1552.04] Yeah. +[1552.04 --> 1556.70] I mean, the amount, the amount of crap that goes on behind the scenes here, guys, let +[1556.70 --> 1560.62] me tell you, like the amount of times that stuff just doesn't work. +[1560.88 --> 1563.26] Like the amount of peanut butter and jelly that's in my hair right now. +[1563.34 --> 1563.60] Okay. +[1563.72 --> 1564.00] Yeah. +[1564.34 --> 1564.74] Yes. +[1565.24 --> 1567.46] I managed to get all the peanut butter and jelly off me. +[1567.52 --> 1569.76] I didn't think of checking my hair for whatever reason. +[1569.84 --> 1574.12] If you guys follow us on Twitter and Instagram, there's some pretty good pictures of some jelly +[1574.12 --> 1574.80] and us. +[1575.48 --> 1575.80] Don't worry. +[1575.88 --> 1576.44] We're clothed. +[1577.40 --> 1578.24] The nudity happened. +[1578.24 --> 1579.04] They probably want to. +[1579.12 --> 1580.08] I'm going to go there. +[1580.14 --> 1580.38] Anyways. +[1580.38 --> 1580.78] Okay. +[1580.78 --> 1586.00] Speaking of things not working behind the scenes, one of the biggest headaches that I had this +[1586.00 --> 1590.48] entire year was doing that triple curved surround setup. +[1591.30 --> 1591.32] Like. +[1591.72 --> 1592.78] Oh, man. +[1593.04 --> 1593.32] Yeah. +[1593.32 --> 1598.40] I had some people leave some pretty critical comments about how I split that out into two +[1598.40 --> 1598.80] videos. +[1599.32 --> 1606.80] And my response to that would be the amount of work that went into each of those individual +[1606.80 --> 1612.70] videos is more than anything but probably a build guide or anything of that caliber. +[1612.70 --> 1616.54] Even then it would be like matching the build guides, not necessarily below them. +[1616.70 --> 1620.92] It was a lot of work because I had to get the rig working at all. +[1620.92 --> 1626.86] And that was a freaking miracle because I needed to use like a display port hub and then I needed +[1626.86 --> 1631.54] to like get that weird resolution actually working at all. +[1631.66 --> 1636.74] Needed to verify that the machine was going to be able to drive that resolution at all before +[1636.74 --> 1637.18] we started. +[1637.30 --> 1637.42] I mean. +[1637.80 --> 1638.14] Okay. +[1638.46 --> 1641.60] I didn't tell you about this, but I had. +[1642.46 --> 1642.94] Crap. +[1643.28 --> 1645.08] It was a pretty good rig. +[1645.38 --> 1649.56] Like it was a it was like a GTX 980 or something like that. +[1649.56 --> 1650.82] Yes, it was a GTX 980. +[1650.92 --> 1656.50] And I had Shadow of Mordor running and it was running at like 9 FPS. +[1656.92 --> 1658.50] And that game is not that demanding. +[1658.68 --> 1659.12] No, it's not. +[1659.66 --> 1661.02] So I realized what happened. +[1661.24 --> 1663.92] I was on a 4K display and it was running at 200%. +[1664.74 --> 1665.98] Oh, yeah, yeah. +[1666.06 --> 1667.68] It has built in super sampling. +[1667.86 --> 1668.68] Which is actually pretty cool. +[1668.86 --> 1670.12] It was running at 8K. +[1670.46 --> 1670.60] Yeah. +[1670.60 --> 1674.92] So that's what can happen when you do that kind of thing. +[1674.92 --> 1679.26] Like when you completely overload a graphics card to the point where just communication +[1679.26 --> 1680.64] internally breaks down. +[1681.14 --> 1683.52] It can just turn into like a crap show. +[1683.76 --> 1684.04] Just mush. +[1684.26 --> 1685.70] Just completely not working. +[1685.84 --> 1687.24] So I was worried that might happen. +[1687.24 --> 1689.04] So that was a whole process there. +[1689.58 --> 1694.08] And part two was when I had the worst headache I've had this entire year. +[1694.42 --> 1698.56] I mean, worse than when we lost one of our editors for two months to a wrist injury. +[1699.04 --> 1703.02] Worse than when people took a bunch of vacation during that time and we just about died. +[1703.02 --> 1707.64] You know, worse than when I was having conference calls with some of our sponsors at the end +[1707.64 --> 1712.58] of that quarter when we had completely missed a bunch of our targets and like a bunch of +[1712.58 --> 1713.66] the things that we committed. +[1713.94 --> 1718.74] Like, yeah, you know, we're going to, you know, do a sponsor spot here and integration +[1718.74 --> 1719.28] there. +[1719.32 --> 1721.62] And we just like completely missed a bunch of stuff. +[1722.32 --> 1726.80] Trying to get those games working at that res. +[1727.50 --> 1728.50] Surround is hard. +[1729.44 --> 1729.92] Okay. +[1730.82 --> 1732.62] Weird aspect ratios are hard. +[1733.02 --> 1737.12] You put those two things together and you have like a list of games that you're determined +[1737.12 --> 1737.82] to get working. +[1738.80 --> 1740.54] And just, oh. +[1740.64 --> 1741.18] It was bad. +[1741.36 --> 1744.84] He had quite a few, like, didn't leave the office till 3 a.m. days. +[1745.18 --> 1752.60] Nick came down to talk to me about something and like kind of was talking to me and then +[1752.60 --> 1753.52] he just kind of left. +[1754.58 --> 1760.74] And like the next week I actually talked to him about this and he was just like, yeah, +[1760.74 --> 1763.74] I wanted to talk to you about this, but you were working on that surround thing. +[1764.12 --> 1766.86] And I was like, yeah, sorry. +[1767.16 --> 1768.04] Was I rude? +[1768.24 --> 1769.90] He's like, it's okay, bro. +[1769.90 --> 1770.38] Yeah. +[1774.00 --> 1774.32] Yeah. +[1774.32 --> 1775.36] That was, yeah. +[1775.52 --> 1776.78] That was an interesting time. +[1777.02 --> 1778.68] Like, I hope I wasn't snippish about it. +[1778.72 --> 1780.44] He's like, it's okay, bro. +[1784.94 --> 1785.38] Yeah. +[1785.56 --> 1785.96] Oh. +[1785.96 --> 1787.00] It's all right. +[1787.08 --> 1789.00] I think, yeah, everyone understands. +[1789.10 --> 1789.92] There's bad days. +[1790.50 --> 1795.32] I'm trying to remember what things I worked on that were really catastrophic. +[1796.38 --> 1800.10] The thing that I'm working on right now was pretty catastrophic for a while. +[1800.66 --> 1802.54] Oh, you know what was a really good one for you? +[1802.92 --> 1806.44] When we had to change our cooling test bench twice in a month. +[1806.44 --> 1813.12] And you had to completely retest our entire back catalog of coolers once. +[1813.62 --> 1814.84] And then we had to change it again. +[1815.20 --> 1820.26] So due to hardware failures and or needing that hardware for some other purpose, +[1820.78 --> 1823.40] we had to tear apart the cooling test bench. +[1823.40 --> 1827.00] And the problem with that is that when you tear apart a cooling test bench, +[1827.68 --> 1832.06] all of your previous results are invalidated because you're testing in a closed environment. +[1832.06 --> 1834.34] So if you change that motherboard or you change that GPU, +[1834.64 --> 1835.30] Something will change. +[1835.46 --> 1836.88] all the previous results are different. +[1836.98 --> 1840.06] And you can't just go, oh, well, we were running at this clock speed and this voltage +[1840.06 --> 1845.74] because every motherboard is going to undervolt or overvolt by completely impossible to predict amount. +[1845.86 --> 1846.02] Yeah. +[1847.94 --> 1848.86] That was frustrating. +[1848.96 --> 1853.96] And then we had, like, I had Excel crash on me and just lose everything from days worth of work. +[1853.98 --> 1855.42] That's happened multiple times this year, hasn't it? +[1855.42 --> 1856.12] A couple times this year. +[1856.48 --> 1859.74] There was more than once where I saved it by while it was crashing. +[1859.74 --> 1862.18] I whipped my phone out real quick and took a picture of the screen +[1862.18 --> 1865.46] and then was able to, like, rebuild all my data that way. +[1866.94 --> 1868.84] Data loss was a pretty big issue. +[1869.56 --> 1870.02] We did. +[1870.24 --> 1871.36] The problems with the server. +[1871.48 --> 1874.78] The server, well, the server room smoked. +[1874.96 --> 1875.12] Yeah. +[1875.24 --> 1877.10] We, should we just admit it? +[1877.54 --> 1879.18] We still don't know what smoked. +[1880.44 --> 1881.68] Everything works. +[1882.42 --> 1884.54] Everything and nothing has damage on it. +[1884.54 --> 1892.74] We thought it was the printer, but since that incident, we have printed, scanned with that all in one unit. +[1893.24 --> 1897.96] And then my assumption was actually that it was one of the security systems. +[1898.18 --> 1898.32] Yeah. +[1898.52 --> 1903.44] And then the other day, Nick was like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, something, something. +[1903.54 --> 1905.14] He mentioned something about monitoring. +[1905.78 --> 1907.44] And I was like, oh, it still works? +[1908.04 --> 1909.50] Because I had never really checked with him. +[1909.50 --> 1917.34] I kind of thought, well, that's the only thing left in the room, and I don't monitor it because I assigned it to someone and then forgot about it. +[1917.66 --> 1919.26] And he's like, yeah, it works. +[1919.76 --> 1920.96] And so I was just like... +[1920.96 --> 1922.48] So everything works? +[1922.50 --> 1923.64] So what was smoking? +[1923.66 --> 1925.80] There was, like, billowing smoke coming out of that room? +[1925.88 --> 1927.52] That room and the next room. +[1927.58 --> 1927.82] Yeah. +[1927.82 --> 1935.18] And we even, like, tore apart the server a little while ago to add a PCIe SSD as a cache for the editors. +[1935.48 --> 1935.58] Yeah. +[1935.76 --> 1938.58] And everything's working, even all the fans. +[1939.08 --> 1940.82] Nothing released Magic Blue Dust. +[1940.92 --> 1942.56] I did a visual inspection of the motherboard. +[1943.26 --> 1945.18] Like, we legit have... +[1945.18 --> 1946.12] The UPS works. +[1946.34 --> 1948.06] We have no idea what's broken. +[1948.36 --> 1948.56] Yeah. +[1949.02 --> 1949.18] Yeah. +[1949.24 --> 1949.94] Something died. +[1949.94 --> 1957.28] Oh, in forum, we moved a server, and then we moved back. +[1958.48 --> 1962.90] We moved server again, and then we moved back, and then we moved server again, and then we moved somewhere else. +[1963.86 --> 1966.34] Yeah, that was all within the span of, like, two weeks, right? +[1966.54 --> 1966.70] Yeah. +[1968.30 --> 1971.16] So every server migration is an all-nighter for him. +[1971.38 --> 1975.04] Like, by default, and usually Mr. Wizard as well. +[1975.12 --> 1975.82] Mr. Wizard, yes. +[1975.98 --> 1976.16] Yeah. +[1976.50 --> 1977.18] And Mr. Wizard. +[1978.12 --> 1978.52] Oh. +[1978.52 --> 1978.64] Oh. +[1978.64 --> 1978.76] Oh. +[1979.92 --> 1985.56] And then, like, Mr. Wizard, like, knows his Amazon stuff, and I don't know any of that. +[1985.70 --> 1985.74] Right. +[1985.74 --> 1986.88] So I can't even really help him. +[1987.14 --> 1991.08] And then we were like, hmm, let's move to Amazon the day before the campaign. +[1991.46 --> 1991.78] Yeah! +[1992.06 --> 1993.42] So Mr. Wizard's like... +[1993.42 --> 1994.80] Yeah, the crowdfunding campaign. +[1994.92 --> 1995.22] Okay. +[1995.56 --> 1999.38] Because we didn't want the site to go down during that, and we figured there was a good chance it would, +[1999.46 --> 2001.40] so we, like, beefed the crap out of it. +[2001.50 --> 2001.74] Yeah. +[2001.80 --> 2002.40] Or so we thought. +[2002.68 --> 2003.40] Or so we thought. +[2003.56 --> 2004.20] And then... +[2004.20 --> 2007.00] Oh, how many times this year did we lose the Raider Ring? +[2007.00 --> 2008.04] Like... +[2008.04 --> 2008.78] Oh, no. +[2008.86 --> 2009.78] In the main server. +[2010.32 --> 2010.64] Okay. +[2010.86 --> 2011.20] Okay. +[2011.48 --> 2012.38] Oh, you know, okay. +[2012.66 --> 2014.52] Probably my second biggest headache. +[2014.72 --> 2016.26] I was so mad. +[2016.60 --> 2017.84] And I wasn't mad at you. +[2018.40 --> 2019.90] And I wasn't mad at me. +[2020.02 --> 2020.72] I was just... +[2020.72 --> 2021.78] I was just mad. +[2021.78 --> 2027.20] Do you remember the time that, like, halfway through a day, you guys... +[2027.20 --> 2028.16] I forget what... +[2028.16 --> 2034.22] I think I contacted the office, and I was at NCIX filming, and I found out... +[2034.22 --> 2035.46] Like, it's like halfway through the day. +[2035.54 --> 2041.08] I find out at this time that the file server hasn't been up all day. +[2041.42 --> 2043.76] And I'm like, why didn't you call me? +[2043.80 --> 2045.68] And Luke's like, no, I'm working on it. +[2045.68 --> 2046.28] I'm working on it. +[2046.32 --> 2047.72] I'm like, what's it doing? +[2047.72 --> 2049.36] And he's like, oh, it just... +[2049.36 --> 2053.46] It goes to, like, a post splash screen, and then it doesn't make it any further. +[2053.60 --> 2055.78] I'm like, pull out those two drives. +[2055.88 --> 2056.54] And he's like, what? +[2056.60 --> 2057.30] How is that going to help? +[2057.32 --> 2058.72] I'm like, pull out those drives. +[2058.82 --> 2059.60] He's like, what? +[2059.80 --> 2060.54] So he tries it. +[2060.58 --> 2061.14] He pulls it out. +[2061.54 --> 2062.50] Boots up just like that. +[2062.52 --> 2063.92] I'm like, why didn't you call me? +[2064.08 --> 2068.66] You're not going to tell me if the entire company is shut down for, like, half of a day. +[2068.66 --> 2073.38] And he's like, well, you shouldn't have drives in a server that make it not post. +[2073.58 --> 2075.90] And I'm like, well, yeah, but I know how it works. +[2076.12 --> 2080.04] You just have to pull out those two drives, let it post, and pop them back in. +[2080.08 --> 2081.50] He's like, that's stupid. +[2081.82 --> 2082.62] Yes, it is. +[2083.22 --> 2092.46] So basically, it's caused by an incompatibility between the two drives that I was using as a RAID 1 backup of the OS drive. +[2092.46 --> 2105.08] So not actually even involved in the main RAID 6 array, but it's a compatibility between those drives and that RAID controller and that motherboard specifically. +[2105.30 --> 2107.60] The drives work on the motherboard with a different RAID controller. +[2107.92 --> 2110.38] The drives work on the RAID controller on a different motherboard. +[2110.76 --> 2116.28] But all three of them together form a trifecta of fail and won't post. +[2116.28 --> 2128.02] And so we lost half a day, half a day of productivity from the entire company because, and I was like, next time the company is not operating, call me. +[2128.70 --> 2131.16] In my defense, I wasn't told at the beginning of the day. +[2131.34 --> 2132.80] I didn't know until later on. +[2133.22 --> 2133.60] But yes. +[2133.66 --> 2134.90] Which is a whole other set of issues. +[2134.96 --> 2137.76] This is why I wasn't mad at anyone specifically. +[2138.10 --> 2139.84] I was just mad at everyone and everything. +[2140.84 --> 2141.66] This is true. +[2141.66 --> 2147.86] Should we keep talking about Linus Tech Tips stuff or should we take a break for this and then go back to it? +[2147.86 --> 2148.74] Yeah, yeah, let's take a break. +[2148.74 --> 2149.04] Can you say that to me? +[2149.04 --> 2150.58] Because I think there's actually more stuff too. +[2150.66 --> 2150.96] I did. +[2151.10 --> 2153.22] It's in the email thread for the offline doc. +[2154.24 --> 2155.12] Okay, got it. +[2156.48 --> 2156.82] Oh. +[2157.30 --> 2157.54] Nope. +[2158.12 --> 2158.72] Email thread. +[2159.14 --> 2159.66] Offline. +[2159.72 --> 2161.14] It doesn't say his thing. +[2161.42 --> 2161.90] All right. +[2161.90 --> 2175.68] So, speaking of the Linus Tech Tips crowdfunding campaign, we have, we weren't really expecting anyone to actually buy a lot of the tiers. +[2176.56 --> 2176.72] Yeah. +[2176.86 --> 2184.44] But our largest contributor of all time, Linus Forsell from Sweden. +[2184.64 --> 2185.78] By a significant amount. +[2186.06 --> 2187.44] By a lot, actually. +[2187.44 --> 2191.20] And a lot of you probably know him from the forum. +[2191.44 --> 2192.60] Great contributor there. +[2192.70 --> 2195.22] Actually did a game giveaway for December. +[2195.76 --> 2196.46] Huge game giveaway. +[2196.70 --> 2197.50] Huge game giveaway. +[2197.50 --> 2197.86] He did the Chrome add-on. +[2198.32 --> 2205.62] This is not actually related to Linus Tech Tips, but when I did my completely on the side charity stream thing, he helped out a lot with that, which was pretty cool. +[2205.90 --> 2206.08] Yep. +[2206.18 --> 2207.10] Totally awesome, guys. +[2207.18 --> 2210.96] So, he actually bought the custom callout on the WAN show. +[2210.96 --> 2219.32] So, we are going to be doing it up, and I don't know if he actually expects me to try to do this Swedish bit. +[2219.44 --> 2220.76] You can go for it. +[2220.90 --> 2222.14] We're not going to do it right. +[2222.30 --> 2224.08] I'm sorry, anyone from Sweden, but. +[2224.14 --> 2224.42] I don't know. +[2224.48 --> 2226.26] Something about Allah and God. +[2226.36 --> 2228.96] I don't know if that's really where I want to go on this show. +[2229.26 --> 2229.50] Oh. +[2229.80 --> 2230.64] No, it's not. +[2230.70 --> 2231.24] It's not about. +[2231.48 --> 2231.94] Yeah, no. +[2232.04 --> 2232.22] It's good. +[2232.68 --> 2232.96] Yes. +[2233.26 --> 2234.10] And it's Swedish. +[2234.26 --> 2234.66] Okay, you know what? +[2234.66 --> 2235.88] You can say it in the English translation. +[2236.48 --> 2237.14] Let's go with that. +[2238.18 --> 2238.92] There we go. +[2238.92 --> 2243.72] First and foremost, allow me to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. +[2243.86 --> 2244.44] There we go. +[2244.70 --> 2250.78] With the tormenting of Linus and or Luke out of the way, allow me to bring you all a short message courtesy of the Tipstarter 2014 campaign. +[2251.20 --> 2252.76] Firstly, I hope you're enjoying the show. +[2252.84 --> 2255.52] I'm pretty sure that I am, even though I'm writing this from the past. +[2256.44 --> 2256.84] Woo! +[2258.36 --> 2260.02] I'm allowed to be awesome like that sometimes. +[2260.20 --> 2265.86] Second, I would like to take this chance to congratulate Linus, Luke, and the rest of their growing staff for their tremendous efforts this year. +[2265.86 --> 2270.94] From an outsider's perspective, it can sometimes be hard to realize how much hard work goes into producing content. +[2271.36 --> 2273.58] For many, it might be hard to put into perspective. +[2274.04 --> 2278.08] I hope, though, that you and your members know that there are people out there that can relate, +[2278.38 --> 2282.38] and for us, you guys and the hard work you put into every single production are a true source of inspiration. +[2282.94 --> 2288.60] It's incredible to see how every single day, without fail, there's a new, well-produced, and often very interesting. +[2288.60 --> 2295.84] I hope he means it's often very interesting, and whenever it's not, it's supremely interesting. +[2296.78 --> 2297.96] Video to enjoy. +[2298.42 --> 2304.70] Add to that the constant striving for increased production values, and one's admiration can quickly escalate out of control. +[2304.82 --> 2307.66] Well, I've taken enough of everyone's valuable time, so I'll cut this short. +[2307.78 --> 2311.72] LMG, keep up the good work, and I wish you all an even more successful 2015. +[2312.56 --> 2313.00] Thank you. +[2313.02 --> 2314.56] Best wishes, Linus Forsell. +[2314.56 --> 2320.10] Well, I actually, I had gone out of my way not to read it entirely until I completed on the show. +[2320.18 --> 2320.88] Yeah, yeah. +[2320.90 --> 2328.18] And I'm really touched, and I mean, okay, so we didn't intend for people to buy a lot of the tiers, +[2328.36 --> 2331.88] and we didn't really intend for anyone to buy this, but he did. +[2331.96 --> 2332.62] He did anyways. +[2332.62 --> 2337.50] And so what we're going to do is we're going to throw in not only the call-out on the WAN show, +[2337.50 --> 2347.46] but one of the stupid tiers that was, like, way too expensive was to name one of the rooms in the new Linus Tech Tips office. +[2348.22 --> 2351.90] So unless Linus, it's so weird because I don't know a lot of Linus. +[2352.38 --> 2353.94] You can call him Forsell. +[2354.20 --> 2354.42] Yeah. +[2354.54 --> 2355.36] Just call him his last name. +[2355.40 --> 2356.18] No, I'll just call him Linus. +[2356.26 --> 2356.56] It's okay. +[2356.90 --> 2358.14] He can be a Linus, too. +[2358.24 --> 2358.40] All right. +[2358.50 --> 2358.90] He earned it. +[2358.90 --> 2365.68] So unless Linus tells me otherwise, we're actually planning to have, like, a small library within the new office +[2365.68 --> 2369.76] where people can go to quietly write away from their desks. +[2369.96 --> 2371.24] We'll have, like, kind of couches. +[2371.46 --> 2373.60] So you don't have other people distracting you and whatnot. +[2373.80 --> 2380.58] And so unless he wants to name something else, something else, that'll be the Linus Forsell library at the Linus Media Group office. +[2380.72 --> 2383.34] So we'll put up a nice little, like, plaque and stuff like that. +[2383.34 --> 2390.06] So thank you very much to him and everyone else who actually contributed towards the new office campaign. +[2390.30 --> 2396.54] We raised over $30,000, which is unbelievable. +[2396.84 --> 2402.68] I mean, that's going to contribute a huge chunk of what it's going to cost us to do the renovations on this place +[2402.68 --> 2404.10] and be able to move in smoothly. +[2404.38 --> 2405.96] So thank you so much to everyone. +[2406.30 --> 2406.52] Oh, yeah. +[2406.54 --> 2411.92] And another thing that I wanted to throw in for Linus if he's watching is I know you're working on a project. +[2411.92 --> 2415.48] I don't know how secret it is, so I'm not going to say anything about it. +[2415.54 --> 2417.38] But I've had a look at some of the early assets. +[2417.96 --> 2423.18] And if you'd like to, when it's ready for you to talk about it, we'd love for you to come on the show and talk about it +[2423.18 --> 2428.78] because that was another tier that we didn't really intend for anyone to buy an appearance on the LAN show. +[2428.92 --> 2432.00] So we'd like to offer that to you as well, have you come on and talk about it +[2432.00 --> 2433.44] because it looks like it's going to be really cool. +[2433.94 --> 2437.12] So Linus Forsell, I've got your PM thread on the forum, +[2437.12 --> 2440.66] and I'll, like, add this Linus into that as well or something, +[2440.66 --> 2444.02] and we can work on figuring all the room and everything out. +[2444.98 --> 2445.34] All right. +[2445.42 --> 2451.00] So we're only halfway through the show, and we haven't actually done any topics yet. +[2451.22 --> 2452.40] It's the last show of the year, though. +[2452.44 --> 2453.58] I think it's probably fine. +[2454.36 --> 2455.20] We should do it. +[2455.24 --> 2456.14] There's a couple big ones. +[2456.20 --> 2457.98] There's a couple really big ones that I want to hit. +[2458.12 --> 2460.84] So JaggySnake57 posted this on the forum. +[2461.40 --> 2464.34] Sony screened the interview on Christmas Day. +[2464.34 --> 2465.26] And you know what? +[2465.70 --> 2468.20] I have got to hand it to Sony. +[2468.32 --> 2472.14] I mean, we, I think, I mean, it's no excuse, +[2472.48 --> 2476.72] but I was pretty pissy when we were talking about this on the show last week. +[2477.28 --> 2480.82] And, like, yeah, I was, like, super cranky. +[2481.02 --> 2488.10] And a big part of that was I was just really upset about Sony letting terrorists win. +[2488.28 --> 2488.50] Yeah. +[2488.50 --> 2492.98] Because no matter what, the information that's out there is leaked. +[2493.08 --> 2493.60] It's done. +[2493.76 --> 2494.22] Yeah, it's over. +[2494.46 --> 2494.98] It's done. +[2495.08 --> 2495.42] It's over. +[2495.54 --> 2496.54] There's literally nothing you can do. +[2496.56 --> 2499.40] Whatever aid you will get from governmental agencies, +[2499.60 --> 2503.48] whether it be U.S. or Japanese or whoever else is going to jump into Sony's aid, +[2503.78 --> 2506.34] whatever's going to happen, the information is leaked. +[2506.78 --> 2507.26] It's done. +[2507.26 --> 2512.60] So giving in to the terrorist threat of effectively, +[2513.06 --> 2516.76] I mean, they threatened to blow up theaters over screening this movie +[2516.76 --> 2522.02] was a huge mistake because it just demonstrated that they had you where they wanted you. +[2522.42 --> 2524.76] And so Sony came out and said, +[2524.98 --> 2529.50] nope, nope, we are authorizing screenings of the interview on Christmas Day. +[2529.68 --> 2531.20] It's been released on YouTube. +[2531.20 --> 2536.10] So Google stepped up and supported this initiative so that the movie can be seen. +[2536.10 --> 2538.70] I'm not going to watch it personally. +[2539.02 --> 2539.70] I've already... +[2539.70 --> 2540.80] I'm not even that interested. +[2541.02 --> 2542.64] I just wanted to make sure it came out. +[2543.02 --> 2547.20] I already watched the leaked Kim Jong-un death scene. +[2547.46 --> 2548.10] Did you see it? +[2548.40 --> 2549.24] It looks terrible. +[2549.74 --> 2554.14] Like his head explodes in the cheesiest possible fashion. +[2554.36 --> 2555.58] And like it's just... +[2555.58 --> 2557.50] It looked very B-movie. +[2558.14 --> 2559.82] Like very B-movie. +[2559.82 --> 2562.96] Honestly, I've heard some people, mainly foreign members and stuff, +[2563.04 --> 2566.18] say that it's like a better than average kind of thing. +[2566.26 --> 2567.14] Like doofus-y comedy. +[2567.52 --> 2567.76] Yeah, yeah. +[2567.92 --> 2569.52] So like that's cool. +[2570.52 --> 2570.88] Yeah. +[2571.30 --> 2573.48] It never really interested me that much from the beginning. +[2573.64 --> 2575.46] I just wanted to make sure that it actually did get released. +[2576.02 --> 2576.20] Yeah. +[2576.42 --> 2577.54] Because I think that's important. +[2578.12 --> 2578.72] Go Sony. +[2579.06 --> 2581.24] You guys did the right thing. +[2581.24 --> 2583.00] I mean, I still... +[2583.00 --> 2589.00] I still have no idea what the ongoing impact of Sony's business is going to be. +[2589.02 --> 2589.60] Because of spoilers. +[2590.20 --> 2590.94] Oh, come on. +[2590.98 --> 2593.22] It's a spoiler that Kim Jong-un dies? +[2594.16 --> 2595.66] It's like in the trailer. +[2598.40 --> 2601.46] Actually, I don't think it is in the trailer. +[2602.20 --> 2604.20] There are scenes from him... +[2604.20 --> 2606.48] There's clips from his death scene in the trailer. +[2606.80 --> 2608.58] But all it shows is him on a helicopter. +[2608.70 --> 2610.48] We don't know that he dies there until later. +[2610.48 --> 2611.16] And... +[2611.16 --> 2613.48] Who cares? +[2614.08 --> 2615.60] Now there's even a worse spoiler. +[2616.00 --> 2616.44] The entire... +[2616.44 --> 2618.58] No, the entire controversy. +[2618.58 --> 2621.18] Yeah, but now people know like what the situation is. +[2621.24 --> 2622.62] So now it's not even like... +[2622.62 --> 2624.46] Oh, like maybe it's... +[2624.46 --> 2624.72] Come on. +[2624.72 --> 2626.76] Maybe he makes it out and it gets delayed or anything. +[2626.82 --> 2628.12] It's like, nope, that's it. +[2628.16 --> 2633.00] The entire controversy was that Kim Jong-un dies in the movie. +[2633.20 --> 2635.54] I know, but now we know the exact same position. +[2635.54 --> 2636.88] That's why they got hacked. +[2637.76 --> 2638.40] You know what? +[2638.40 --> 2640.36] I am sorry for nothing. +[2641.46 --> 2648.08] Yeah, but there's a difference between like Kim Jong-un dies and Kim Jong-un dies in this exact specific situation. +[2649.04 --> 2650.12] In this way. +[2650.54 --> 2652.46] I shouldn't say I'm sorry for nothing. +[2652.58 --> 2655.24] I did want to address that sort of... +[2655.24 --> 2659.94] That misguided play on words during our Dollar Shave Club thing last week where I was like, +[2659.94 --> 2662.26] you could have a Dollar Slave Club. +[2662.26 --> 2664.20] You could have a slave delivered every week. +[2664.36 --> 2665.70] That was dumb. +[2665.94 --> 2667.94] I was just like, what rhymes with Dollar Shave Club? +[2668.00 --> 2669.92] And the first thing that popped into my head was that. +[2670.20 --> 2672.04] And I probably could have gone with like... +[2673.04 --> 2674.14] Brave Club. +[2674.14 --> 2676.52] Actually, that might not be any better depending on the context. +[2676.64 --> 2679.44] Let's just go ahead and move on to our next topic. +[2681.28 --> 2684.28] So, North Korea's internet outage. +[2684.40 --> 2688.78] There actually doesn't appear to be a whole lot of concrete information on any of this. +[2688.86 --> 2689.46] This was posted by... +[2689.46 --> 2691.64] The internet has decided that it was the States. +[2692.14 --> 2692.58] Yeah. +[2693.12 --> 2694.42] I mean, that was the rumor. +[2694.84 --> 2695.52] This was posted by... +[2695.52 --> 2696.50] The internet has decided. +[2696.88 --> 2698.26] Real Philbert on the forum. +[2698.56 --> 2701.88] But basically there was an internet outage for 10 hours on Monday. +[2702.20 --> 2703.56] Could have been anyone. +[2706.76 --> 2708.68] So, I don't know. +[2708.76 --> 2710.44] Is there anything else that we can really talk... +[2710.44 --> 2711.64] So, it's the worst... +[2711.64 --> 2715.44] Experts called it the worst North Korean network failure in years. +[2715.44 --> 2724.20] I mean, we're talking about 1,024 official actual IPv4 addresses that the country has. +[2724.40 --> 2727.54] So, there wasn't a whole lot of internet connectivity there. +[2727.82 --> 2728.22] Anyways. +[2729.06 --> 2729.70] Yeah. +[2730.00 --> 2734.76] There's signs that are consistent with DDoS style attacks on routers. +[2736.60 --> 2739.22] They're probably running like WRT54Gs. +[2739.66 --> 2740.70] So, I don't know. +[2740.70 --> 2745.44] It's probably... +[2745.44 --> 2745.90] I don't know. +[2747.10 --> 2748.58] I mean, there was... +[2748.58 --> 2750.32] I mean, just to give you guys some idea. +[2750.44 --> 2752.56] Actually, you should check this out if you haven't already. +[2753.16 --> 2754.66] Great article on The Verge. +[2754.74 --> 2755.42] Sophie Schmidt. +[2755.56 --> 2756.28] So, Eric Schmidt. +[2756.62 --> 2757.54] One of Google's founders. +[2757.78 --> 2758.18] Daughters. +[2758.58 --> 2761.80] Actually had a chance to visit North Korea not that long ago. +[2762.20 --> 2768.70] And basically described the country as kind of like a creepy Truman Show-like atmosphere. +[2768.70 --> 2771.18] Here are the articles from The Verge. +[2771.20 --> 2775.48] I'm still mad at them about the whole Gamergate thing, but I'm still going to show their site here because it's a good article. +[2776.00 --> 2787.30] But basically, she talked about how something like a tablet connected to the internet would be the equivalent of like, you know, the main event at an event like CES here in the West. +[2787.30 --> 2791.74] Like, whatever the hottest new technology is, is like showing off internet connectivity. +[2792.16 --> 2800.86] She talks about walking around in a building where people are working and saying nothing and not even looking up as people walk past. +[2800.98 --> 2804.10] And just how eerie the experience was. +[2804.10 --> 2805.50] It's definitely worth a read. +[2806.54 --> 2819.88] Because, I mean, it's very easy for us here in nations where we have a lot more freedom than they do there to just kind of take for granted being allowed to open your mouth and say something. +[2821.08 --> 2821.56] Yeah. +[2821.74 --> 2823.78] Very, very interesting. +[2823.78 --> 2830.36] Watching stuff like Vice Docs and stuff like that on certain countries is just, I don't know. +[2832.46 --> 2833.48] Could have been worse. +[2836.02 --> 2836.46] Okay. +[2836.94 --> 2839.88] I had another one that I wanted to jump to from there. +[2840.24 --> 2840.88] Sony Hackers? +[2840.98 --> 2841.26] Yeah. +[2841.70 --> 2845.78] Hackers versus gamers versus other hackers versus Kim.com versus... +[2845.78 --> 2848.82] Posted by xTankSlayerX on the forum. +[2848.92 --> 2850.56] Or just TankSlayer, I think it might be. +[2850.56 --> 2854.96] The original article here is from Polygon, although there's a lot of different coverage of this. +[2855.06 --> 2861.28] And basically, both PlayStation Network and Xbox Live were down. +[2861.70 --> 2868.74] So gamers who had just gotten brand new PlayStation 4s and brand new Xbox Ones were not... +[2868.74 --> 2869.52] Oh, I can post it. +[2869.58 --> 2869.72] Sorry. +[2870.18 --> 2870.52] I'm ready. +[2871.52 --> 2874.28] Were not able to enjoy their brand new consoles. +[2874.28 --> 2878.36] We had people saying that, you know, they weren't even able to update... +[2878.36 --> 2879.66] Oops, I'm on the wrong page now. +[2879.76 --> 2879.98] Derp. +[2879.98 --> 2885.20] People saying that they weren't even able to update their console, so they couldn't even play games offline. +[2885.80 --> 2889.10] Just as a gigantic sort of, well, this. +[2890.28 --> 2890.76] Yeah. +[2891.20 --> 2893.54] Just as a gigantic this is what it appeared to be. +[2894.08 --> 2898.44] So there's, I think it was, what, Lizard Squad took credit for it. +[2898.44 --> 2904.10] And then Hackers Finest Squad kind of jumped in and something, something. +[2904.10 --> 2909.32] And basically, the gist of it was, they said, well, no, we're not looking to disrupt the actual economy. +[2909.32 --> 2914.54] If we did, we would have taken down the New York Stock Exchange or something like that. +[2914.54 --> 2920.44] We just wanted to send a message to Sony and Microsoft about their digital security or something. +[2920.44 --> 2927.16] You know, they probably wouldn't need it if it wasn't for douche canoes shutting down their services on purpose for no reason. +[2927.16 --> 2933.28] Because the reality of it is, if you hit something hard enough, it will go down no matter what it is. +[2933.94 --> 2935.36] That's how this works. +[2935.96 --> 2941.14] It is, there is no such thing as a site that is completely impenetrable to an online attack. +[2941.56 --> 2942.72] Google Docs was down today. +[2943.10 --> 2945.02] Yeah, Google Docs was down for hours today. +[2945.18 --> 2947.06] I don't know if, I don't know what it was. +[2947.10 --> 2949.26] It probably wasn't an attack, but, like, stuff goes down. +[2949.36 --> 2949.80] It happens. +[2950.28 --> 2954.86] Anyway, um, so yeah, there's a whole, there's a whole thing. +[2955.04 --> 2955.48] Blah, blah, blah. +[2955.58 --> 2955.88] Two groups. +[2955.88 --> 2957.60] Finest Squad stepped up. +[2957.72 --> 2958.46] That's the other group. +[2958.58 --> 2960.74] They're trying to, like, stop them or something. +[2960.94 --> 2961.96] Yeah, so, sorry. +[2961.96 --> 2963.94] So, Lizard Squad took credit for it. +[2964.36 --> 2966.56] Something, something next generation Grinch. +[2966.70 --> 2968.84] Finest Squad emerged saying it would stop the group. +[2968.94 --> 2969.70] Back and forth. +[2969.94 --> 2974.76] Both groups declaimed victory through doxing, hacked Twitter accounts and websites, even an arrest. +[2974.90 --> 2981.70] Finest Squad provided a link to a press release from the Sheriff's Office about the arrest of a 17-year-old in Canada in connection with the school swatting in September. +[2981.88 --> 2984.02] Finest Squad began releasing names and photographs. +[2984.02 --> 2988.36] Okay, doxing is never right and never cool, no matter who it is, just to be clear. +[2988.36 --> 2999.26] For those of you who don't know what doxing is, that's basically fishing out the details of someone online and then publishing them somewhere extremely public, like Reddit or Twitter, for everyone to see. +[2999.82 --> 3000.86] It's not cool. +[3001.10 --> 3002.30] No one deserves that. +[3002.44 --> 3004.50] That's not, that's not okay. +[3004.50 --> 3005.18] Yeah. +[3005.18 --> 3006.38] Um, yeah. +[3006.82 --> 3013.58] Um, so anyway, from there, Kim.com, of all people, stepped up to the plate and- +[3013.58 --> 3016.20] Really wanted to play Destiny with his friends. +[3016.20 --> 3026.04] I, I give, I give Kim.com a lot more credit for shrewdness than that. +[3026.20 --> 3030.74] I suspect it had less to do with wanting to play Destiny with his buddies and more to do with wanting- +[3030.74 --> 3033.64] I know, it's just, it's just funny that he even said that. +[3033.86 --> 3034.58] I, I, yeah. +[3034.84 --> 3036.20] The guy is incredibly clever. +[3036.66 --> 3038.50] Um, we gotta, we gotta give him that. +[3038.60 --> 3042.50] He knows how to play the media like almost no one else. +[3042.58 --> 3042.76] Yeah. +[3043.18 --> 3043.42] Um. +[3043.42 --> 3050.00] So basically, Kim.com came out and said, I have offered all the members of the hacker group. +[3050.06 --> 3052.20] I think it was about 3,000 members. +[3052.40 --> 3055.76] He, he, yeah, he offered them and then they said we have 3,000 lizards. +[3055.88 --> 3055.98] Yeah. +[3056.04 --> 3057.92] So who knows if they actually have 3,000 members. +[3058.06 --> 3059.46] They probably just want 3,000 accounts. +[3059.66 --> 3060.00] Yep. +[3060.04 --> 3064.02] So he offered them 3,000 free mega accounts. +[3064.18 --> 3064.96] I think each of them- +[3064.96 --> 3067.54] Mega management still has to approve it. +[3067.64 --> 3067.86] Yes. +[3067.86 --> 3072.18] It's, it's for, I think, one year, but then if they leave PlayStation and Xbox alone for that +[3072.18 --> 3073.48] one year, they get upgraded to lifetime. +[3073.84 --> 3075.48] Lifetime of free mega premium. +[3075.84 --> 3080.66] And then basically said, look, as soon as any attacks on these networks show up, I'm taking +[3080.66 --> 3081.10] it away. +[3081.46 --> 3086.98] I mean, on the one hand, you know, that's a pretty nice Merry Christmas gesture from the, +[3086.98 --> 3091.08] the mega team and, uh, Kim.com kind of stepping up to make that happen. +[3091.08 --> 3099.22] On the flip side, once again, you can't negotiate with, I mean, these groups can call themselves +[3099.22 --> 3100.34] whatever they want, but. +[3100.82 --> 3102.74] No, I think they're quite literally terrorists. +[3103.02 --> 3106.24] If you read some of the stuff that they've been putting out there, um, these are tweets +[3106.24 --> 3107.00] from Lizard Squad. +[3107.52 --> 3109.58] Why DDoS the White House when you can blow it up? +[3109.66 --> 3110.56] Hashtag Lizard Squad. +[3110.86 --> 3112.24] Uh, the FBI failed. +[3112.40 --> 3114.04] Press switch to blow them all up. +[3114.42 --> 3116.60] If we threaten Barack Obama, will you try harder? +[3116.60 --> 3120.84] Or FBI, uh, do a quick scan of the White House for explosives then? +[3120.96 --> 3122.92] Pretty sure that's all terrorism stuff. +[3123.16 --> 3127.04] Oh yeah, I've got people pointing out in Twitch that, uh, Lizard Squad did an interview with +[3127.04 --> 3128.76] BBC, uh, three hours ago. +[3128.92 --> 3129.86] I was aware of that. +[3129.94 --> 3131.54] I haven't watched it, haven't had a chance. +[3131.72 --> 3134.28] Um, quite frankly, I don't know if I should. +[3134.76 --> 3137.20] Um, I don't even know if we should be talking about it. +[3137.42 --> 3137.94] Probably not. +[3139.52 --> 3144.00] So there, tell you what, why don't we make this our sign-off and maybe our challenge to +[3144.00 --> 3145.60] any other media outlets. +[3145.60 --> 3148.70] We're not going to talk about Lizard Squad or anything they do anymore. +[3149.56 --> 3155.26] Because if we all stop talking about it, then, well, they'll probably just try harder +[3155.26 --> 3157.70] to get our attention until eventually, in theory, they go away. +[3160.14 --> 3160.54] Probably. +[3161.46 --> 3162.54] Um, so... +[3162.54 --> 3164.72] Applying, like, pet training rules. +[3165.48 --> 3166.68] We should give them chocolates. +[3170.06 --> 3170.86] Mega chocolates. +[3172.50 --> 3175.24] Oh, we should probably do our sponsors, our sponsor spots. +[3175.24 --> 3176.24] I'm excited. +[3176.40 --> 3179.04] Yeah, our first sponsor this week is Lynda.com. +[3179.14 --> 3183.14] And at some point, we're going to fix that lower third because they offer not a seven-day +[3183.14 --> 3185.78] free trial, but a ten-day free trial. +[3186.10 --> 3186.96] Ten days. +[3186.98 --> 3188.06] Ten days. +[3188.34 --> 3188.90] Lynda.com. +[3189.76 --> 3190.90] Monster trucks. +[3190.90 --> 3195.86] I really do wonder if anyone over at Lynda.com... +[3195.86 --> 3197.68] Ten-day, ten-day, ten-day! +[3198.06 --> 3203.42] Got these pictures of, like, the Lynda mascot driving monster trucks and was just like, what? +[3203.56 --> 3204.82] Why is this happening? +[3205.54 --> 3206.84] I'm going to see if I can find... +[3206.84 --> 3208.44] Have we actually shown any of those? +[3208.52 --> 3210.22] I don't think we did on this stream. +[3210.30 --> 3212.86] I think we might have in the after party of whatever week that was. +[3212.86 --> 3214.86] Oh, this is my favorite one anyway. +[3214.96 --> 3215.34] I love it. +[3215.90 --> 3216.22] That's awesome. +[3216.22 --> 3223.06] So this is from our last Lynda.com spot where we were talking about, like, what if the Lynda +[3223.06 --> 3226.12] mascot drove a monster truck? +[3226.20 --> 3227.86] And then whoever did this... +[3227.86 --> 3228.28] Who was this? +[3228.34 --> 3229.46] Brandon P., I guess. +[3230.14 --> 3232.56] Decorated the truck in WAN logos. +[3234.20 --> 3234.68] Ridiculous. +[3234.68 --> 3241.96] Anyway, Lynda.com is the place online for a very minimal monthly subscription to learn +[3241.96 --> 3247.28] cool new skills, whether it's enjoying your hobby more, like digital photography, or whether +[3247.28 --> 3252.72] it's something that you legitimately want to turn into a job, like video editing or coding. +[3253.02 --> 3257.96] Coding is a perfect example of something on Lynda.com that can legit turn into job skills +[3257.96 --> 3258.90] that you use every day. +[3259.04 --> 3263.72] We have, I think it's three members here at Linus Media Group that use their Lynda.com skills. +[3263.72 --> 3263.98] At least three. +[3263.98 --> 3264.86] At least three. +[3265.54 --> 3266.68] And, uh, so yeah. +[3266.76 --> 3267.24] My mom does too. +[3267.98 --> 3268.30] Really? +[3268.48 --> 3269.38] She's not really a part of it. +[3269.42 --> 3270.38] She, yeah, she does now. +[3270.74 --> 3271.36] I didn't know that. +[3271.38 --> 3272.16] She used our thing. +[3272.28 --> 3272.76] Did she really? +[3272.76 --> 3272.98] Yeah. +[3274.36 --> 3275.22] That is awesome. +[3275.40 --> 3278.34] Every once in a while she'll call me and be like, well, I want to sign up for this service, +[3278.46 --> 3280.76] but like, I don't know what your URL is anymore. +[3280.86 --> 3285.02] And I'm like, okay, well, you can just click on it if you go to that box on the forum. +[3285.10 --> 3288.14] I'm not even just doing this so you guys know where to go. +[3288.22 --> 3290.22] But like, yeah, she signed up for Lynda.com. +[3290.24 --> 3290.72] That's awesome. +[3290.72 --> 3293.50] And every once in a while she gets confused by the Amazon tag. +[3293.50 --> 3296.44] You gotta tell me, what's she, what's she, what's she learning on Lynda.com? +[3297.60 --> 3299.32] Oh, this is gonna be super bad because I forgot. +[3299.86 --> 3300.10] Okay. +[3300.26 --> 3301.18] Find out, find out. +[3301.20 --> 3303.20] But she went from like homework stuff. +[3303.34 --> 3303.52] Yeah. +[3303.62 --> 3304.96] Like working at home kind of stuff. +[3305.26 --> 3306.24] Now she's trying to get desk jobs. +[3306.32 --> 3309.30] So I think she might be refreshing on like English skills and stuff like that. +[3309.42 --> 3309.78] That's cool. +[3309.78 --> 3312.48] Because I pushed her onto online education stuff. +[3312.58 --> 3312.82] Great. +[3313.18 --> 3313.90] So, yeah. +[3314.08 --> 3314.60] So there you go. +[3314.66 --> 3316.84] So they add new courses every week from industry experts. +[3317.50 --> 3319.00] And there you go. +[3319.04 --> 3319.98] Lynda.com slash WANshow. +[3320.06 --> 3320.78] Try it out for free. +[3320.82 --> 3323.10] And if you don't like it, then you don't have to do it anymore. +[3323.16 --> 3323.46] Hi, mom. +[3323.84 --> 3324.38] All right. +[3324.50 --> 3326.60] We've got our, oh yes, CES. +[3326.60 --> 3328.26] It's gonna be a blast this year. +[3328.26 --> 3333.48] We've actually got something really special planned that is going to reinforce the awesomeness +[3333.48 --> 3335.00] of our sponsor, Phantom Glass. +[3335.46 --> 3336.72] I am so stoked on that. +[3337.02 --> 3337.94] It's gonna be super fun. +[3338.28 --> 3343.28] So you can watch all our coverage of the show at CES 2015 from January 5th to the 10th. +[3343.38 --> 3346.82] We are gonna be bringing you guys a whack ton of content. +[3347.06 --> 3349.48] He's gonna be all over the virtual reality stuff. +[3349.76 --> 3352.32] I'm gonna be all over the new parrot drone. +[3353.16 --> 3356.72] He is gonna be all over something and I'm gonna be all over the other stuff. +[3356.72 --> 3365.20] I've got appointments with like Samsung, Sony, LG, Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, like all the usual +[3365.20 --> 3365.60] suspects. +[3365.60 --> 3367.02] We're gonna be all over that stuff. +[3367.08 --> 3367.92] It's gonna be a lot of fun. +[3368.52 --> 3368.96] Corsair. +[3369.28 --> 3375.94] I think once again, I have, I have just like skeeved my way into the very first appointment +[3375.94 --> 3377.74] for Corsair of CES. +[3378.18 --> 3382.94] I did the same thing last year and I actually, I probably shouldn't tell this story, but I'm +[3382.94 --> 3383.62] gonna tell it anyway. +[3383.62 --> 3388.76] So my Corsair contact was like, yeah, yeah, you took this spot right away. +[3389.06 --> 3391.94] And I was like, yeah, I want to make sure that I'm first with whatever you guys are showing +[3391.94 --> 3392.10] off. +[3392.10 --> 3393.30] And they had some cool stuff last year. +[3393.36 --> 3396.84] They had the 760T and they had that little mini case. +[3396.96 --> 3397.78] I forget, 230T? +[3398.50 --> 3398.96] I think it's called. +[3399.20 --> 3399.88] That's one of them. +[3400.06 --> 3400.22] Yeah. +[3400.24 --> 3401.64] They had the 230T there for sure. +[3402.20 --> 3407.24] And anyway, so he's like, yeah, one of my other media contacts asked me about this spot. +[3407.24 --> 3409.62] I said it was taken and the guy was like, it's Linus got it. +[3409.66 --> 3410.46] Linus got it, didn't he? +[3411.10 --> 3412.00] And I was just like. +[3413.46 --> 3413.82] Ah. +[3415.70 --> 3418.22] You gotta get that, like, they used it in StarCraft a lot. +[3418.38 --> 3419.78] That little, like, Shug meme thing. +[3421.84 --> 3423.30] So yeah, we're gonna have lots of good stuff. +[3423.52 --> 3428.32] And that is gonna be brought to you mostly by our gold sponsor, Phantom Glass. +[3428.32 --> 3433.86] So those guys have been a big part of why we're able to take the whole team to CES this +[3433.86 --> 3437.18] year and bring you guys better content than ever before from the show. +[3437.38 --> 3442.02] And then our last sponsor today, we have another Loot Crate. +[3443.04 --> 3445.52] So offer code Linus to save 10%. +[3445.52 --> 3451.18] For those of you who didn't tune in to After Party last week, where we actually discovered +[3451.18 --> 3453.78] more stuff in the Loot Crate that we didn't realize. +[3453.80 --> 3454.60] Like a lot more. +[3454.60 --> 3459.84] Like the entire box unfolded to become like a fight scene for like our fighting dudes. +[3459.84 --> 3460.48] Drama fighty scene. +[3460.60 --> 3461.80] Yeah, like pretty cool. +[3462.22 --> 3466.32] So I think, I think there are actually some talking points for this. +[3466.68 --> 3469.30] Well here, you do that and I'll get into it. +[3469.34 --> 3470.36] You get to open it? +[3470.42 --> 3470.80] Yeah, dude. +[3470.84 --> 3471.26] I hate you. +[3471.36 --> 3471.64] Rex. +[3471.82 --> 3477.00] So to maintain transparency, you must state that you received the crate for free from Loot Crate. +[3477.30 --> 3478.88] Not that they actually cost that much. +[3478.94 --> 3480.48] It's $13.37. +[3480.96 --> 3481.52] What? +[3481.52 --> 3484.42] We should unbox the December anniversary crate. +[3484.60 --> 3485.70] And show off what's inside. +[3486.02 --> 3487.12] There's Groot socks. +[3487.24 --> 3487.74] No way. +[3488.34 --> 3488.74] Yeah. +[3489.08 --> 3490.16] You have to show the other side. +[3490.96 --> 3491.66] I am Groot. +[3492.40 --> 3492.98] That's awesome. +[3493.04 --> 3495.12] I finally saw that not that long ago actually. +[3495.72 --> 3495.96] Really? +[3495.96 --> 3499.78] And our next Fastest Possible actually has the Guardians of the Galaxy joke in it even. +[3500.08 --> 3502.24] So these would go perfectly with that. +[3502.78 --> 3503.84] Alright, what else we got? +[3504.24 --> 3507.00] I don't know what these are actually called, but these are super popular. +[3507.14 --> 3507.60] Pop Heroes. +[3508.04 --> 3508.18] Yeah. +[3508.18 --> 3508.50] Okay. +[3508.68 --> 3511.54] I think these were like exclusive or something. +[3512.02 --> 3515.32] So this is a Joker Batman hybrid thing. +[3515.36 --> 3517.92] Yeah, so this is Batman cosplaying as the Joker. +[3518.06 --> 3518.30] Yeah. +[3518.48 --> 3518.64] Yeah. +[3518.78 --> 3519.70] That's the idea. +[3519.70 --> 3525.96] We actually, another thing that we had people showing us on Twitter last week when we were +[3525.96 --> 3530.26] going through the loot crate and discovering it had more than we thought was their collections +[3530.26 --> 3534.12] of loot crate swag that they accumulated over the course of like a year. +[3534.34 --> 3534.72] Yeah. +[3534.94 --> 3535.84] That was pretty cool. +[3535.84 --> 3538.52] And when you kind of go, and when you do the math and you go, okay, so that was like +[3538.52 --> 3541.76] 150 bucks plus a little bit more. +[3542.34 --> 3543.56] That's like not bad. +[3543.58 --> 3543.84] Yeah. +[3544.30 --> 3544.66] Actually. +[3545.00 --> 3545.60] So there you go. +[3545.64 --> 3548.02] I'll give you guys a better look at the Batman Joker. +[3548.44 --> 3553.36] I can't imagine Batman would actually cosplay as Joker unless it's Joker cosplaying as Batman. +[3553.48 --> 3554.64] Yeah, that's what I was kind of thinking. +[3554.90 --> 3556.40] The Joker Batman Batman. +[3556.60 --> 3557.28] No, it is a Batman. +[3557.56 --> 3559.22] It starts, yeah, that's true. +[3559.90 --> 3561.18] I was going to say it starts with Joker. +[3561.18 --> 3568.18] And the back just like, yeah, that face just about sort of is as confusing as this figurine +[3568.18 --> 3568.44] is. +[3568.86 --> 3569.54] What else we got? +[3569.56 --> 3571.58] So the next thing is Tetris stickers. +[3571.78 --> 3573.78] They're officially from Tetris, which I think is interesting. +[3574.08 --> 3574.54] Oh, that's cool. +[3574.56 --> 3576.40] Like they're actually an officially Tetris branded thing. +[3577.24 --> 3577.64] 147. +[3578.20 --> 3580.92] 147 Tetraminos, I think is what they're called. +[3580.96 --> 3581.86] Okay, I'm snagging this one. +[3582.26 --> 3582.66] Okay. +[3583.58 --> 3583.94] Goddamn. +[3584.72 --> 3585.64] I wanted that one. +[3585.72 --> 3586.54] They show examples. +[3587.28 --> 3588.44] They show, oh, my bad. +[3588.44 --> 3592.66] They show examples on like bags and laptops and books and phones and everything. +[3592.86 --> 3592.98] Oh, that's awesome. +[3592.98 --> 3593.66] So you can just do whatever you want. +[3593.66 --> 3596.54] Yeah, so you just build your own little Tetris like Punisher dude or like thing that says +[3596.54 --> 3600.10] loot crate on the back, which is probably not what I'll put on the back of my laptop. +[3600.32 --> 3601.12] Oh, my God. +[3601.14 --> 3601.66] No way. +[3601.74 --> 3602.24] Oh, I jumped. +[3602.36 --> 3603.86] I moved too fast. +[3605.28 --> 3606.78] It's a Mighty Wallet. +[3607.08 --> 3608.42] And it's the Simpsons. +[3608.50 --> 3610.68] It looks like a Simpsons like Where's Waldo thing. +[3611.06 --> 3612.08] But it's a Mighty Wallet. +[3612.28 --> 3613.04] Oh, that's awesome. +[3613.04 --> 3619.04] Like card slots here and in here and this is where your cash goes and there's two different +[3619.04 --> 3619.86] sections for that. +[3620.44 --> 3621.54] It doesn't seem very durable. +[3622.16 --> 3623.28] They're Mighty Wallets though. +[3623.32 --> 3624.26] They actually are pretty durable. +[3624.30 --> 3624.60] Really? +[3624.80 --> 3625.04] Yeah. +[3625.46 --> 3626.64] Like they're surprisingly durable. +[3626.88 --> 3626.96] That's cool. +[3627.02 --> 3628.10] They don't seem like it at first. +[3628.68 --> 3628.98] But yeah. +[3629.12 --> 3632.18] I've been told, I've never had one, but I've been told that they're quite durable. +[3632.68 --> 3633.00] Expenses. +[3633.00 --> 3638.58] There's also a like car hanger thing, which is the shield, Captain America's shield from +[3638.58 --> 3640.48] the Avengers or from Captain America. +[3640.48 --> 3641.94] Oh, it's made of Tyvek. +[3642.28 --> 3642.56] Yeah. +[3642.70 --> 3643.98] Like it's actually really durable. +[3644.02 --> 3644.14] Yeah. +[3644.18 --> 3648.88] That's the stuff that that remote control Bluetooth airplane that we, oh, it's like waterproof +[3648.88 --> 3649.28] and stuff. +[3649.38 --> 3649.48] Yeah. +[3649.54 --> 3649.70] Yeah. +[3649.70 --> 3649.86] Yeah. +[3649.86 --> 3651.88] It doesn't feel, it feels like paper, but it's a. +[3651.98 --> 3652.12] Yeah. +[3652.12 --> 3655.90] They have a picture of it after one year of use, but it's not exactly high res. +[3656.08 --> 3656.30] No. +[3657.12 --> 3657.44] Cool. +[3658.00 --> 3658.36] Yeah. +[3658.40 --> 3659.38] So this is just like a, whoop. +[3659.54 --> 3662.12] This is like a car holder thing that you put on your mirror and it smells like vanilla. +[3663.24 --> 3664.00] It's actually kind of cool. +[3664.58 --> 3665.52] Captain America car thing. +[3667.00 --> 3667.48] Do do do. +[3669.66 --> 3670.08] What? +[3671.28 --> 3671.76] We talked. +[3671.86 --> 3672.32] Oh, okay. +[3672.38 --> 3673.10] I think this is just. +[3673.42 --> 3673.54] Yeah. +[3673.56 --> 3675.82] This is the little commemorative. +[3675.90 --> 3678.68] So this month's theme is a very special one as we celebrate anniversaries. +[3678.88 --> 3680.62] They've got an interview with Stan Lee. +[3681.60 --> 3682.18] There you go. +[3686.68 --> 3687.56] What else we got? +[3687.80 --> 3688.02] Yeah. +[3688.06 --> 3689.34] A bunch of really neat stuff in here. +[3689.92 --> 3690.82] Oh, that's interesting. +[3691.44 --> 3692.22] Oh, I didn't know that. +[3692.26 --> 3694.06] They have deals on other stuff. +[3694.06 --> 3698.18] Oh, that kind of makes sense. +[3698.28 --> 3698.46] Yeah. +[3699.06 --> 3701.08] So like there's a Simpsons house Lego thing. +[3701.16 --> 3702.86] Like it's related to the stuff that's in here. +[3702.98 --> 3704.06] So there's a batarang. +[3704.06 --> 3704.58] What is that? +[3704.76 --> 3705.12] Replica. +[3705.12 --> 3705.56] Yeah. +[3705.92 --> 3706.90] So that's super cool. +[3706.90 --> 3711.04] It's like a $2,000 value thing and then they sell it for $7.50 or something. +[3711.42 --> 3711.92] I guess. +[3712.00 --> 3712.86] That's probably why it's cool. +[3712.96 --> 3713.54] It's super expensive. +[3713.86 --> 3714.14] Yeah. +[3715.18 --> 3719.84] Did I tell you about the time that I was tempted to order a full size Han Solo in carbonite like +[3719.84 --> 3721.04] official licensed thing? +[3721.04 --> 3725.64] It was like 5,000 British pounds and I would have had to spend my entire life savings on +[3725.64 --> 3726.18] it at the time. +[3727.10 --> 3727.94] I didn't do it. +[3727.94 --> 3728.40] That's amazing. +[3729.54 --> 3733.22] Come on in you ugly little spud and then warning ghost busting in progress. +[3733.36 --> 3734.42] It's a door tag thing. +[3734.92 --> 3737.54] They have a like little advertisement for Crunchyroll. +[3737.80 --> 3738.12] Oh yeah. +[3738.32 --> 3738.60] Okay. +[3739.30 --> 3740.50] We rep Crunchyroll too. +[3740.76 --> 3741.26] Yeah, we do. +[3741.38 --> 3744.82] So unfortunately, sorry Loot Crate, we're not going to do your Crunchyroll link. +[3745.00 --> 3746.14] Use our Crunchyroll link. +[3747.98 --> 3749.72] Loot Crate December 2014 anniversary. +[3749.72 --> 3752.16] I know quite a few people that actually collect all their pins and stuff. +[3752.16 --> 3752.84] There's some more stuff in here. +[3752.96 --> 3753.36] Yeah. +[3754.48 --> 3757.94] Like an actual full comic book from DC Comics and then I think there's a poster in the +[3757.94 --> 3758.22] back. +[3758.50 --> 3760.46] I can't really tell but I think there is. +[3761.08 --> 3763.08] They give you a candy cane. +[3763.68 --> 3764.30] Oh, it's broke. +[3764.42 --> 3765.36] So that totally makes sense. +[3765.48 --> 3766.58] Well, it was together. +[3767.10 --> 3768.02] Did you break it? +[3768.18 --> 3768.34] Yeah. +[3768.52 --> 3769.20] Way to go. +[3769.52 --> 3769.80] I know. +[3770.82 --> 3771.26] Horrible. +[3772.14 --> 3773.36] Now, I think. +[3773.76 --> 3775.70] Oh no, that's just the card to make it. +[3775.82 --> 3777.44] Oh, well that's cool too then. +[3777.44 --> 3778.52] Well now I opened it for nothing. +[3778.62 --> 3779.00] Way to go. +[3779.72 --> 3780.36] Jackass. +[3780.48 --> 3782.46] You lost thousands of dollars in value. +[3782.66 --> 3786.08] Well, I only paid $13.37 for it. +[3786.24 --> 3786.36] Right. +[3786.54 --> 3789.82] Like worst case scenario if everything else in the crate was free. +[3790.34 --> 3792.70] And then this unfolds to, it looks like a bat cave. +[3792.96 --> 3793.64] Yes, I think so. +[3794.04 --> 3796.34] Well, does it, do you actually unfold it or do you just? +[3796.38 --> 3796.70] Yes. +[3796.78 --> 3797.28] Yes, okay. +[3797.28 --> 3797.78] Yeah, you do. +[3797.78 --> 3797.80] Yeah, you do. +[3797.88 --> 3800.68] You unfold it and then there's like a way to set it up. +[3800.74 --> 3802.54] So our little joker batman dude stands in there. +[3802.60 --> 3802.90] Oh, cool. +[3802.90 --> 3804.18] All right. +[3804.18 --> 3805.16] So thanks, Loot Crate. +[3805.24 --> 3811.42] Guys, it's offer code Linus to save 10%, which because it's so cheap is not actually a lot +[3811.42 --> 3817.40] of money, but you might as well save your $1.37 or $1.33 or whatever that works out too. +[3819.14 --> 3819.58] Fantastic. +[3819.58 --> 3824.46] It's like I'm not selling the use of the offer code too hard here. +[3825.26 --> 3828.66] But it's a good service and considering it's monthly, that'll add up too. +[3829.72 --> 3831.02] I think you only save on the first one. +[3831.22 --> 3832.44] So yeah, it is what it is. +[3833.56 --> 3834.22] All right. +[3834.28 --> 3835.28] So what else we got here? +[3835.32 --> 3838.32] I think there were a bunch of other topics that we promised to cover. +[3839.00 --> 3839.72] Oh, yeah. +[3840.40 --> 3843.56] Work rumored to have begun on a new Nintendo console. +[3843.56 --> 3843.88] Right. +[3843.88 --> 3848.76] I want to preface this by saying we've had rumors that were exactly this like multiple +[3848.76 --> 3850.38] times over the last like two years. +[3850.52 --> 3854.86] So this was posted by Master Disaster on the forum and the original article here is from +[3854.86 --> 3855.80] Escapist Magazine. +[3857.64 --> 3860.80] So Nintendo confirms work is underway on new consoles. +[3861.16 --> 3866.40] However, that doesn't really tell us a whole lot about because work is basically underway on +[3866.40 --> 3868.92] new consoles by the time something actually gets released. +[3868.92 --> 3873.86] Work has been underway on new consoles since they merged their office buildings like a long +[3873.88 --> 3874.42] time ago. +[3874.50 --> 3875.02] Do you remember that? +[3875.30 --> 3875.40] Yeah. +[3875.48 --> 3876.36] They merged their, yeah. +[3876.44 --> 3879.62] And they were like, yep, we're going to be working on a new console which brings together +[3879.62 --> 3881.22] our mobile and console divisions better. +[3881.54 --> 3882.98] They've been saying that since then. +[3883.34 --> 3885.24] There's definitely been work underway this whole time. +[3885.54 --> 3885.74] Yeah. +[3885.82 --> 3888.50] And like the kinds of hints that are being provided are not very useful. +[3888.74 --> 3888.86] No. +[3888.96 --> 3893.66] From early on, I wanted Mario to be that character in the digital world so that with each digital +[3893.66 --> 3896.10] evolution, he was there to usher in the next era. +[3896.10 --> 3899.82] I think that maybe when we release the next hardware system, you can look forward to seeing +[3899.82 --> 3902.12] Mario take on a new role or in a new game. +[3903.88 --> 3904.50] Cool man. +[3905.72 --> 3907.52] No information was given ever. +[3907.84 --> 3909.88] Like I love Nintendo, but like guys. +[3910.36 --> 3913.54] There'll be, Mario will take on a new and unexpected role. +[3913.88 --> 3914.94] Oh my gosh. +[3915.10 --> 3918.06] Even more unexpected than being in space or driving go-karts. +[3918.12 --> 3919.52] Or shooting people with water guns. +[3919.54 --> 3920.32] Or playing tennis. +[3920.50 --> 3920.80] Or. +[3921.06 --> 3922.38] Or drawing things. +[3922.46 --> 3923.52] Or whatever the hell he's done. +[3923.52 --> 3925.04] With that horrible square mouse. +[3925.04 --> 3925.92] That thing was terrible. +[3926.00 --> 3926.64] Mario paint. +[3926.88 --> 3927.20] Yeah. +[3927.38 --> 3929.00] He's been so many different games. +[3929.50 --> 3930.86] Fighting off ghosts with Luigi. +[3930.86 --> 3932.06] Maybe he helps this time. +[3932.70 --> 3935.98] Oh, I guess I forgot to post the link to that in the chat here. +[3936.14 --> 3936.34] Right. +[3936.52 --> 3939.96] Not that that link contains any useful information whatsoever. +[3940.56 --> 3940.96] Nope. +[3941.68 --> 3942.72] There we go. +[3943.26 --> 3944.10] Boop, boop, boop. +[3944.22 --> 3945.54] Okay, so then we. +[3945.54 --> 3947.82] Oh, Tesla Roadster version 3.0. +[3947.96 --> 3949.30] Now, there was. +[3949.60 --> 3951.44] I don't know much about this. +[3951.50 --> 3952.82] I know it has a lot more distance. +[3952.82 --> 3956.00] So I think they can drive it over 400 miles. +[3956.10 --> 3960.80] And they're going to be demonstrating this between San Francisco and Los Angeles in early 2015. +[3961.00 --> 3961.72] So that's pretty cool. +[3962.18 --> 3962.62] That's a lot. +[3962.68 --> 3963.14] What are you doing? +[3963.30 --> 3963.74] What is that? +[3963.82 --> 3964.24] I'm dancing. +[3964.38 --> 3964.62] I don't know. +[3964.64 --> 3965.02] I'm excited. +[3965.20 --> 3965.36] Cool. +[3965.68 --> 3966.62] That's a lot of distance. +[3966.82 --> 3967.40] I'm excited. +[3967.58 --> 3968.76] Not because of this. +[3969.00 --> 3974.06] But because of all this stuff happening will make my Tesla really good when I can finally afford one. +[3974.52 --> 3974.76] Yep. +[3975.52 --> 3979.30] So he's probably specifically talking about when they release the like way cheaper ones. +[3979.30 --> 3984.30] Because Teslas aren't being resold because they're not really failing. +[3985.10 --> 3993.44] So my new plan, because my original plan, as you know, was to buy a Model S when people were like getting rid of them. +[3993.74 --> 3994.32] But they're not. +[3994.54 --> 3995.44] But they don't. +[3996.16 --> 3998.68] And it's like it's kind of like certain brands of cars. +[3998.80 --> 4003.12] Like last time I was car shopping, which was admittedly a while ago, there was like no used Suzuki's. +[4003.38 --> 4003.90] Like nothing. +[4004.02 --> 4007.34] You couldn't find a used Suzuki because I was looking for specifically an SX4. +[4008.12 --> 4009.06] And nothing. +[4009.30 --> 4010.18] I was like, okay. +[4010.30 --> 4011.30] I mean, I know it's really new. +[4011.52 --> 4013.40] But, you know, even stuff like the Rabbit. +[4013.50 --> 4014.42] We managed to find the Rabbit. +[4014.54 --> 4015.78] That was back when we bought my wife's car. +[4015.98 --> 4016.08] Yeah. +[4016.24 --> 4017.52] Like that was pretty new. +[4017.62 --> 4019.02] And you could find a couple used ones. +[4019.06 --> 4020.04] And we got a good deal on it. +[4020.16 --> 4020.30] Yeah. +[4020.78 --> 4028.74] But my plan has actually changed because I realized that I only put about 35 kilometers a day on my car right now. +[4029.22 --> 4032.20] So my car has 191,000 kilometers on it. +[4032.20 --> 4035.78] Which means that I will be able to drive it for like another five years. +[4035.78 --> 4041.70] Well, that might line up well with the timing of the cheaper Tesla. +[4041.92 --> 4042.20] Maybe. +[4042.42 --> 4045.70] So maybe I will be able to hold out for a cheaper Tesla. +[4045.78 --> 4052.54] Otherwise, I'll probably just wait for like a more budget oriented brand to have an electric car that doesn't totally suck. +[4053.08 --> 4053.22] Yeah. +[4053.22 --> 4054.78] And then I'll go that route. +[4054.78 --> 4061.92] Not that they're more budget oriented, but people are starting to partner with Tesla for use of the supercharging stations. +[4062.10 --> 4062.24] Right. +[4062.36 --> 4065.98] And if they start doing that, then they'll probably be partnering with them in more technology realms. +[4066.16 --> 4068.76] Like I think it was BMW is partnering up with them quite closely. +[4068.78 --> 4068.88] Yeah. +[4069.22 --> 4076.80] And not only is that going to help Tesla by having it so that hopefully BMW is going to contribute and build more supercharging stations. +[4076.92 --> 4077.08] Yeah. +[4077.08 --> 4083.52] And there will just be more in general, but that'll help consumers because there will be more supercharging stations. +[4083.76 --> 4085.46] More infrastructure will be a very good thing. +[4085.56 --> 4085.82] Yes. +[4086.92 --> 4094.00] But yeah, I mean, then the next five years might be okay because looking at what's happening to gas prices, looking at what's happening in Russia right now. +[4094.10 --> 4095.82] I haven't looked at it in a couple of days, but. +[4095.92 --> 4096.32] Not better. +[4096.32 --> 4099.30] The ruble fell what, like 25% in a day or something. +[4099.30 --> 4099.66] Something crazy. +[4099.66 --> 4101.18] Ludicrous amount like that. +[4101.18 --> 4106.74] Apparently people have been going to different places like Ikea and stuff and just mass buying things while their money is. +[4106.74 --> 4112.60] I heard that people are like stockpiling electronics while their money is still worth something. +[4112.78 --> 4114.22] Apple pulled out of the country. +[4114.92 --> 4123.78] And as I don't, this was rumored, I think when I was reading about it, but I think the rumor is that other major electronics brands are thinking of pulling out as well. +[4123.78 --> 4133.98] Because you've got to consider that these brands have their costs in, let's say, USD, for example, and they're being paid by people in rubles. +[4134.20 --> 4135.76] So what are they supposed to do? +[4135.84 --> 4138.72] Just jack up their prices 2x from day to day? +[4138.82 --> 4139.66] Well, hold on a minute. +[4139.72 --> 4140.96] What about what they sold yesterday? +[4141.14 --> 4151.18] Now all of a sudden, instead of making, you know, let's say 20% or 30% margin on an item they sold, maybe they just lost 10% on that item they sold by the time they're able to convert the currency. +[4151.18 --> 4153.90] What if they can't even find anyone to convert currency for them? +[4154.00 --> 4157.14] You guys would be surprised how hard it is to convert foreign currency. +[4157.38 --> 4160.10] We have an affiliate code with Amazon UK. +[4160.94 --> 4164.54] Getting a Great Britain pound converted here is difficult. +[4165.08 --> 4165.94] And a euro too. +[4166.08 --> 4168.08] I still have Swedish krona because I can't get it moved. +[4168.08 --> 4169.04] Well, those are impossible. +[4169.22 --> 4169.88] I can't get it moved. +[4169.92 --> 4171.34] I would have thought euro would be easy. +[4171.80 --> 4178.18] Last time I was in at my bank cashing an Amazon check, the teller told me that they weren't going to accept euros anymore starting January 1st. +[4178.18 --> 4181.48] It's like, what do you mean you're not going to accept euros anymore? +[4181.56 --> 4183.94] It's one of the most important currencies in the world. +[4184.14 --> 4185.94] That's one of the ways that PayPal is super good. +[4186.52 --> 4186.78] Yeah. +[4186.96 --> 4190.26] It'll just move whatever the heck you want at any time. +[4190.52 --> 4191.18] It's fantastic. +[4192.38 --> 4193.28] Super good. +[4193.96 --> 4195.84] So yeah, Tesla Roadster. +[4195.84 --> 4202.82] So predicted 40 to 50% improvement on range between the original Roadster and the Roadster 3.0, which is pretty cool. +[4203.00 --> 4208.10] Appointments for upgrading Roadsters will be taken this spring once the new battery pack finishes safety validation. +[4208.32 --> 4212.36] They're also having improvements of like drag coefficients for aerodynamics and stuff like that. +[4212.40 --> 4214.16] So there's kind of improvements all over the board. +[4214.44 --> 4215.12] So that's good. +[4215.12 --> 4217.60] Oh, this is exciting. +[4217.80 --> 4230.60] So overclockers.co.uk, this was posted originally by Notional on the forum, has exclusively begun selling the first, I'm posting it, the first FreeSync compatible monitor. +[4231.02 --> 4237.34] So this is an Yamaha ProLite B2888UHSU-B. +[4237.34 --> 4240.84] I really wish, like why is it Asus is the only one that figured this out? +[4241.20 --> 4242.02] ROG Swift. +[4242.90 --> 4250.34] If you have an important model, call it something that we can freaking remember because I don't remember PG287Q. +[4250.68 --> 4252.64] Like that's what it's actually, or 278Q. +[4252.88 --> 4253.90] Yeah, see, I didn't even get it right. +[4255.06 --> 4256.26] I'm not going to remember that. +[4256.34 --> 4257.24] It's ROG Swift. +[4257.42 --> 4262.26] That's how people, like, why, why do we have to explain this stuff? +[4262.54 --> 4262.86] Anyway. +[4263.42 --> 4265.30] You do remember some crazy model names though. +[4265.60 --> 4266.38] Yeah, some. +[4266.38 --> 4268.50] But usually it's when it means something. +[4268.76 --> 4272.36] Like most of, like Asus actually does a relatively good job of that. +[4273.08 --> 4277.12] And if I buy one or if I use one every day, then I'm much more likely to remember it. +[4277.46 --> 4277.94] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4278.36 --> 4280.04] But yeah, so this is exciting. +[4280.22 --> 4285.00] It's still a 4K TN panel like Acer's G-Sync 4K. +[4285.74 --> 4289.68] So it's exciting in that it's got adaptive refresh. +[4290.12 --> 4295.62] But it's a little bit less exciting in that it's a TN panel. +[4295.62 --> 4297.86] So some people are not going to be that excited. +[4297.94 --> 4298.40] And you know what? +[4298.40 --> 4311.80] I was really blown away by how much of a difference the Acer IPS monitor that I checked out recently, how much of a difference it made to have that better contrast when I'm trying to use it without scaling. +[4312.02 --> 4316.44] Now, it was a 4 inches bigger diagonally, which is a lot bigger than the TN1. +[4316.44 --> 4320.10] And the TN1 looks great in games, which is where it's supposed to look great. +[4320.16 --> 4320.66] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4320.70 --> 4322.60] And the finer image means less anti-aliasing. +[4322.68 --> 4323.58] And all of these things are good. +[4324.70 --> 4328.02] But IPS is a really nice thing to have. +[4328.10 --> 4329.20] But this one, this one's TN. +[4329.48 --> 4333.00] One millisecond response time, 60 hertz refresh rate. +[4333.00 --> 4335.54] And the way it's going to work is you buy it now. +[4335.68 --> 4338.02] And it's not going to have adaptive sync, even though the driver's ready. +[4338.44 --> 4342.04] So the AMD Omega driver is already equipped with adaptive sync. +[4342.34 --> 4343.38] Or free sync, excuse me. +[4343.48 --> 4346.08] Free sync leverages adaptive sync in the VASIS bag. +[4346.08 --> 4349.00] So it has free sync capability. +[4349.20 --> 4352.46] But this monitor, you will actually have to send it in for a hardware upgrade. +[4352.78 --> 4354.14] Or a firmware upgrade, excuse me. +[4354.30 --> 4356.72] In order to unlock the capability. +[4357.78 --> 4359.60] So there you go. +[4359.62 --> 4360.66] It'll be a free upgrade. +[4362.02 --> 4363.44] But yeah. +[4363.60 --> 4365.04] Someone in the chat said it's not free. +[4365.14 --> 4365.98] But I haven't said anything. +[4366.10 --> 4367.34] I haven't seen anything about that. +[4367.70 --> 4368.56] Okay, maybe you have to pay shipping. +[4368.82 --> 4369.42] That would be a guess. +[4369.90 --> 4370.30] I don't know. +[4370.68 --> 4374.72] Okay, well either way, it's not super expensive at 390 pounds. +[4374.72 --> 4376.64] So that's pretty darn good. +[4376.76 --> 4378.68] And then maybe you will have to pay. +[4378.78 --> 4382.62] Because I know that AMD was saying that free sync would be about a $100 adder. +[4383.64 --> 4387.02] Over regular DisplayPort 1.3 monitors. +[4387.24 --> 4387.66] Right, yeah. +[4388.14 --> 4392.40] So I mean, I wouldn't necessarily recommend buying into free sync yet. +[4392.52 --> 4395.28] Free sync might be God's gift to gamers. +[4395.84 --> 4396.28] Seriously. +[4396.98 --> 4398.92] Like, I believe in G-Sync. +[4399.12 --> 4400.10] I think it's awesome. +[4400.18 --> 4402.42] But there's very few people that have seen it kind of in action. +[4402.42 --> 4405.08] Yeah, I don't think anyone has seen finished free sync yet. +[4405.34 --> 4405.72] Finished? +[4405.90 --> 4406.68] No, I don't think so. +[4406.94 --> 4409.00] So let's just wait. +[4409.12 --> 4415.28] Because if it was as simple as when the GPU is ready to push out a frame, it lets the monitor +[4415.28 --> 4420.70] know and refreshes, NVIDIA wouldn't have had to rev their G-Sync technology in between +[4420.70 --> 4425.14] demoing it at that press event and actually releasing finalized products. +[4425.14 --> 4430.12] They had to completely revise some important stuff about G-Sync in order to make it work +[4430.12 --> 4431.02] to their satisfaction. +[4431.54 --> 4437.74] So until we've actually seen it, actually working, and AMD claims that actually... +[4437.74 --> 4439.04] Oh, I don't know if I should say this. +[4439.10 --> 4440.32] I don't know if this is public knowledge. +[4442.34 --> 4443.36] Maybe just move on. +[4444.38 --> 4445.18] Hold on, hold on. +[4445.20 --> 4445.78] I'm going to find out. +[4445.82 --> 4446.96] I'm going to find out if I can say it. +[4447.10 --> 4447.30] Okay. +[4447.30 --> 4454.76] I asked Linus for sale if he'd watched the show live today, and he said he sure will, +[4454.92 --> 4456.30] and then he hasn't responded to me yet. +[4458.42 --> 4459.30] AMD freezing. +[4459.30 --> 4459.90] I want to know. +[4460.58 --> 4464.18] And another keyword that I don't want to tell you guys about because it might give away too +[4464.18 --> 4464.48] much. +[4467.58 --> 4468.48] This is awkward. +[4469.04 --> 4470.10] Why don't we do a Twitter blitz? +[4470.20 --> 4471.98] We had a couple plans for Twitter blitzes. +[4471.98 --> 4472.70] Yes, we did. +[4472.70 --> 4475.70] We can have the first one... +[4475.70 --> 4477.60] Crap. +[4477.94 --> 4478.48] Where are they? +[4479.44 --> 4480.96] Best Christmas present. +[4482.34 --> 4482.78] Top. +[4482.90 --> 4483.42] They're all over. +[4483.48 --> 4484.74] Yeah, tell us what you've got. +[4484.80 --> 4485.46] Oh, oh, oh. +[4485.78 --> 4487.92] Boxing Day slash Black Friday shopping. +[4488.04 --> 4488.52] Do you do it? +[4488.58 --> 4489.02] Yeah. +[4489.36 --> 4495.26] So I went out today because I had to get some number 32 rubber bands, of all things, for +[4495.26 --> 4497.44] a super fun video that's going to be coming out this weekend. +[4497.44 --> 4508.80] And I kind of marveled as I was on my way out the door that I had forgotten that today +[4508.80 --> 4512.84] in Canada is Boxing Day, which is the equivalent of Black Friday down in the States. +[4513.30 --> 4517.00] And Luke was like, yo, dog, I wouldn't go to Walmart. +[4517.20 --> 4518.40] I heard it's like crazy there. +[4518.66 --> 4519.68] And I was like, why would it be? +[4520.08 --> 4520.56] Oh. +[4520.56 --> 4527.38] Oh, it has been so long since I have gone Black Friday or Boxing Day shopping in person +[4527.38 --> 4528.82] that I had kind of forgotten. +[4529.20 --> 4533.96] The last time I did it, the last time I did it for real, was when I kind of realized that +[4533.96 --> 4535.24] I didn't care about it. +[4535.52 --> 4538.74] And the reason was that one of the deals I got was great. +[4538.98 --> 4542.86] I bought a 19-inch 1280 by 1024 LCD. +[4542.86 --> 4546.78] It was the last one out of the 15 available at NCIX in Burnaby. +[4547.50 --> 4553.12] And I got it for like some smoking crazy deal, like $100 less than what you would typically +[4553.12 --> 4554.18] pay for something like that. +[4554.22 --> 4555.30] And I really needed one anyway. +[4555.54 --> 4558.82] But I waited out in the cold for it for like an hour and a half, two hours. +[4560.88 --> 4566.74] But the other things that I bought that day, one of them made me realize that this wasn't +[4566.74 --> 4573.34] for me, I bought a CD writer that was advertised for $5 after mail-in rebate. +[4573.54 --> 4573.74] Yeah. +[4574.12 --> 4577.48] And that was actually the one mail-in rebate that I ever didn't get. +[4577.72 --> 4582.10] I'm mostly an advocate for mail-in rebates because they've always worked for me. +[4582.44 --> 4587.98] And if my purchase can be subsidized by someone else being lazy, yeah. +[4588.06 --> 4588.86] And that works for you. +[4588.88 --> 4591.84] And that's great because a lot of people just don't get it. +[4592.00 --> 4594.92] They're like, oh, well, I don't want a $20 mail-in rebate. +[4595.00 --> 4596.34] I want $20 off at the till. +[4596.34 --> 4597.86] Well, it doesn't work that way. +[4598.30 --> 4601.52] You can't give $20 off at the till because that's $20. +[4602.30 --> 4606.22] A mail-in rebate, a $20 mail-in rebate is probably more like $6. +[4607.02 --> 4608.52] Because not that many people will do it. +[4608.64 --> 4609.90] Because not that many people will do it. +[4610.06 --> 4611.14] That's how this works. +[4611.40 --> 4613.44] That's why some people get $20 off. +[4613.78 --> 4616.22] Because if it wasn't $20, it would have been $6. +[4616.86 --> 4618.32] So get that through your head. +[4618.94 --> 4619.88] It doesn't work that way. +[4620.02 --> 4620.22] Anyway. +[4620.42 --> 4620.94] Like at all. +[4621.06 --> 4623.92] So it was a $25 item with like a $20 rebate. +[4623.92 --> 4626.40] So it was a $5 CD writer back at a time when that mattered. +[4626.54 --> 4627.64] Like that's how long ago this was. +[4627.88 --> 4628.06] Yeah. +[4628.22 --> 4628.32] Yeah. +[4628.32 --> 4630.16] And I never got the rebate. +[4630.60 --> 4637.54] And then I actually never ended up using that CD writer until several years later. +[4638.12 --> 4639.40] And it turned out to be DOA. +[4639.68 --> 4640.52] I had never tested it. +[4640.52 --> 4641.28] Oh, no. +[4641.28 --> 4642.88] And I kind of went, you know what? +[4643.24 --> 4651.90] For the money that I saved on that Boxing Day versus the money that I wasted on stuff I didn't end up actually needing, maybe this isn't for me. +[4651.96 --> 4654.98] Maybe some people have more discipline and it works better for them. +[4655.26 --> 4656.94] But it's not for me. +[4657.40 --> 4660.74] So we want to hear your guys' Boxing Day stories. +[4661.12 --> 4662.10] Bada Sigma lens. +[4662.10 --> 4666.40] We're more meaning, uh, Blade of Goss is the new moderator on the forum. +[4666.68 --> 4670.00] But we're more meaning, uh, like in store. +[4672.30 --> 4673.54] Oh, Cassidy. +[4674.58 --> 4680.14] Yeah, I had, I had, I had some, I was going to say someone, but I guess we know exactly who it is now. +[4680.50 --> 4686.40] Um, Cassidy walked up to me at the Walmart and, uh, I think said the same thing to me twice. +[4686.70 --> 4690.46] Like something like, um, oh, you know, I hope you had a great Christmas. +[4690.96 --> 4692.34] And then we talked for a little bit. +[4692.46 --> 4695.18] And then I was walking away and he's like, oh, I hope you had a great Christmas. +[4695.34 --> 4696.30] Wait, I already said that. +[4696.68 --> 4697.50] Sorry, this is awkward. +[4697.80 --> 4698.52] Don't worry, dude. +[4698.90 --> 4703.00] I had, someone saw me at Guilford Mall when I was like frantically buying Christmas presents. +[4703.22 --> 4705.72] And I had to race out to my car because I had to go meet someone. +[4706.52 --> 4708.12] So I'm like fast walking past him. +[4708.18 --> 4709.78] He's like, hey, it's like, and I'm like, hi. +[4709.96 --> 4710.70] And just keep walking. +[4711.34 --> 4713.82] Later on, I was like, that was probably rude. +[4714.48 --> 4714.80] But really? +[4714.80 --> 4717.32] I tweeted out and I was like, I didn't mean to do that. +[4717.44 --> 4722.58] I think honestly, the, the, the most difficult ones for me are when the person treats it like +[4722.58 --> 4727.62] it's no big deal because I have a really bad memory and I've met a lot of people over the +[4727.62 --> 4729.18] years and I'm really bad with faces. +[4729.56 --> 4735.54] So, um, I was on my way into my favorite Vietnamese restaurant and someone in a group of people +[4735.54 --> 4736.98] was just like, hey Linus. +[4737.48 --> 4742.22] And I was like, and I'm just like, I'm carrying two children in my arms. +[4742.22 --> 4745.70] Like I just like, Hey, you never know if it's like that dude from high school that you don't +[4745.70 --> 4746.74] remember or yeah. +[4746.96 --> 4747.10] Yeah. +[4747.28 --> 4748.80] Or if you were, I just had no idea. +[4748.88 --> 4750.04] And they were like totally casual. +[4750.16 --> 4750.84] They were just like, Hey Linus. +[4750.88 --> 4752.72] And then they like looked the other way and kept on walking. +[4753.72 --> 4759.40] I would, I would rather you just said hi instead of walking past me and tweet me later, which +[4759.40 --> 4760.02] happens a lot. +[4760.02 --> 4766.12] And something that bugs me just cause like, I never know how I did in that situation is +[4766.12 --> 4771.04] when we go through a full interaction and then they're like, okay, bye slick. +[4771.18 --> 4772.76] And I'm like, ah, you knew me. +[4772.84 --> 4773.06] What? +[4773.82 --> 4775.26] Like, that's not fair. +[4776.26 --> 4776.90] You know what? +[4776.90 --> 4777.84] I wasn't paying attention. +[4777.84 --> 4784.24] I think the funniest tweet that I've ever seen about viewer fan interaction was actually +[4784.24 --> 4785.10] from PewDiePie. +[4785.46 --> 4790.28] I follow him just cause I'm sort of idly curious about how you become the number one internet +[4790.28 --> 4791.72] sensation in the entire world. +[4792.64 --> 4794.90] And the tweet was, it was, it was like really hilarious. +[4795.36 --> 4796.04] He's like, yeah. +[4796.14 --> 4801.68] So I was shopping and someone's coming up to, walking up to me from kind of far off. +[4801.68 --> 4803.36] And I kind of like get my hair ready. +[4803.44 --> 4804.40] I'm sure it's a fan. +[4804.40 --> 4807.02] And the guy walks up and he's like, Hey, you took my shopping cart. +[4810.20 --> 4811.16] That's fantastic. +[4811.72 --> 4816.02] It's like, cause yeah, I'd imagine by the time you've got like umpteen bazillion followers, +[4816.02 --> 4818.28] like you probably get approached in public a lot. +[4818.34 --> 4823.98] Like it happens to me once in a while, but he would be an order of magnitude or two more +[4823.98 --> 4824.54] than me. +[4824.72 --> 4824.96] Yeah. +[4825.06 --> 4827.36] So yeah, it probably happens a lot. +[4827.48 --> 4827.68] Yep. +[4827.90 --> 4828.10] Yep. +[4828.76 --> 4832.54] Um, apparently I've had stuff in my hair the whole land show. +[4832.54 --> 4832.70] Yeah. +[4832.74 --> 4833.40] It's peanut butter. +[4834.40 --> 4835.24] Oh, you do? +[4835.46 --> 4835.60] Yeah. +[4835.70 --> 4837.62] I have some, I think it's on this side or something. +[4837.62 --> 4837.94] Yeah. +[4838.04 --> 4838.22] Yeah. +[4838.28 --> 4840.82] I had a whole bunch that I didn't notice right in here. +[4840.94 --> 4841.70] Maybe it's on this side. +[4841.74 --> 4842.48] I don't know if they can see. +[4842.48 --> 4842.60] Yeah. +[4842.60 --> 4843.14] There's jelly. +[4843.52 --> 4843.82] Yeah. +[4844.12 --> 4844.28] Yeah. +[4844.34 --> 4844.82] Still good. +[4845.38 --> 4845.60] Yeah. +[4846.60 --> 4847.26] Oh crap. +[4847.32 --> 4849.04] Apparently someone saw me in Dollarama too. +[4851.20 --> 4854.00] I was shopping everywhere today trying to find those rubber bands. +[4854.00 --> 4859.80] Um, all right. +[4859.96 --> 4861.70] Are we, are we getting any tweets here? +[4862.12 --> 4862.98] No ton. +[4863.22 --> 4864.90] I noticed that after, actually. +[4865.90 --> 4866.24] All right. +[4866.24 --> 4867.34] Let's see if people, okay. +[4867.34 --> 4867.86] There we go. +[4868.00 --> 4868.20] There we go. +[4869.08 --> 4869.88] Very nice. +[4870.00 --> 4870.34] Wow. +[4870.34 --> 4871.60] That's terrible though. +[4871.68 --> 4872.92] Because, oh my goodness. +[4873.18 --> 4874.94] We never, we never talked about this. +[4875.50 --> 4878.10] The, uh, the gift from the, uh, from the forum. +[4878.20 --> 4879.36] Oh, yes. +[4880.00 --> 4882.22] Because that was supposed to show up for last one show. +[4882.28 --> 4882.98] So it's been a week. +[4882.98 --> 4883.62] Yeah. +[4883.88 --> 4889.56] So this was a Christmas present from the, uh, from, from some of our, some of our favorite +[4889.56 --> 4894.44] members on the forum who apparently hate us because they want us to die. +[4894.84 --> 4898.86] So they sent us all this freaking candy. +[4899.02 --> 4899.64] And you know what? +[4899.80 --> 4904.52] I have had so much of it that I have noticeably put on padding on my stomach. +[4905.36 --> 4905.90] Noticeably. +[4906.04 --> 4909.06] Like to my hands can feel the padding I put on. +[4909.06 --> 4913.36] I had probably about an entire ginormous thing of Jelly Bellies. +[4913.74 --> 4913.88] Yeah. +[4914.02 --> 4917.30] And I took two of these M&Ms home and Yvonne only gave away one of them. +[4917.50 --> 4919.26] So you can bet that I'm going to eat a bunch of those. +[4919.40 --> 4921.26] I managed to get away from the Skittles. +[4921.36 --> 4921.88] It's got free. +[4922.04 --> 4926.26] But I think Taryn has probably eaten like three bags of M&Ms and an entire bag of Skittles. +[4926.32 --> 4927.80] He's trying to put on weight though. +[4927.88 --> 4928.04] So. +[4928.18 --> 4928.36] Yeah. +[4928.40 --> 4930.54] So you guys just about killed us. +[4930.54 --> 4933.34] Thank you for the heartwarming Christmas present though. +[4933.82 --> 4936.88] Um, but maybe next time something a little healthier, please. +[4939.06 --> 4940.96] Um, okay. +[4941.08 --> 4942.58] So back to, back to Twitter blitz. +[4942.74 --> 4942.92] Yeah. +[4942.98 --> 4946.34] I don't know how you can buy chocolate after the holiday. +[4946.48 --> 4948.54] I have eaten so much stuff. +[4948.76 --> 4950.26] I even have more dinners to go to. +[4950.42 --> 4951.36] I'm not even done yet. +[4951.64 --> 4953.42] Oh, apparently there have been some password leaks. +[4953.54 --> 4953.66] Okay. +[4953.66 --> 4954.54] I'll have to check that out. +[4955.88 --> 4958.06] Got the Black Pebble Steel on Friday for 150 bucks. +[4958.12 --> 4959.00] That's a great deal. +[4959.28 --> 4960.70] That is a fantastic deal. +[4960.70 --> 4963.42] I paid $299 for mine and I don't regret it for a second. +[4963.56 --> 4963.64] Yeah. +[4963.72 --> 4964.40] That's super legit. +[4964.40 --> 4966.46] Um, nice. +[4966.56 --> 4967.52] GX60 laptop. +[4968.26 --> 4969.26] 65 inch TV. +[4969.40 --> 4969.66] Yeah. +[4970.02 --> 4970.42] TVs. +[4970.62 --> 4971.36] Black Friday and Boxing Day. +[4971.36 --> 4972.48] You know what really bugs me though? +[4972.56 --> 4974.52] Is I don't want a smart TV. +[4975.68 --> 4978.22] Just buy a smart TV and use it dumbly. +[4978.52 --> 4980.38] I know, but then their features are annoying. +[4980.70 --> 4983.06] Like that's the argument that people have for Windows 8. +[4983.36 --> 4985.20] It's just like, oh yeah, just don't use those things. +[4985.32 --> 4988.48] I'm like, yeah, but they're there and they'll pop up every once in a while and drive me crazy. +[4988.64 --> 4988.94] Right. +[4989.24 --> 4990.50] Like it all, ugh, yeah. +[4990.64 --> 4991.52] I don't want a smart TV. +[4991.64 --> 4992.64] Bought a new 850 Pro. +[4992.80 --> 4993.34] Nice choice. +[4993.90 --> 4994.58] Solid SSD. +[4994.98 --> 4996.26] Chromecast is going to be way better anyway. +[4997.30 --> 4998.44] Oh, Wancho. +[4999.64 --> 5001.46] Love more in-depth on the whole room water cooling. +[5001.74 --> 5004.30] Yes, we are definitely going to give you guys more details. +[5004.42 --> 5010.30] The final video will be a complete rundown of everything, like looking at the finished project. +[5012.04 --> 5016.16] So, um, all right, let's see if we've got anything else here. +[5016.16 --> 5020.18] There are no things like that in Poland, says Adam K. +[5020.20 --> 5023.00] That's a bummer because it can be a really great time to get some shopping. +[5023.42 --> 5025.24] Yes, Tony, mission accomplished. +[5026.34 --> 5029.78] Um, paint for a DIY green screen wall. +[5029.88 --> 5032.44] Wow, these are a lot of things that I wouldn't have really thought about shopping for. +[5032.46 --> 5033.84] I definitely didn't expect the paint thing. +[5033.90 --> 5034.38] That's awesome. +[5034.68 --> 5036.48] Isaac apparently got a Keep On Digging shirt. +[5036.66 --> 5037.04] Nice. +[5037.76 --> 5038.58] Yeah, man. +[5038.68 --> 5038.96] Yay. +[5040.30 --> 5042.04] Um, this is interesting. +[5042.04 --> 5046.02] Do I consider myself a Mac guy now, since you saw the other side of the fence? +[5046.12 --> 5055.56] Well, next week I'll actually be releasing part three, which is kind of the critical part of the iSwitched experience. +[5055.66 --> 5057.96] But I've been using the iMac for over a month now. +[5058.94 --> 5059.48] And, um... +[5059.48 --> 5060.18] Put this into perspective. +[5060.72 --> 5062.94] You said you were going to use Google Glass for how long? +[5063.68 --> 5064.34] One month? +[5064.66 --> 5065.00] Yeah. +[5065.88 --> 5066.48] And... +[5066.48 --> 5068.46] I took it off within a day because it's garbage. +[5069.48 --> 5069.74] Yeah. +[5069.96 --> 5071.44] So I've managed to stick with it. +[5071.52 --> 5073.22] I'm still using it as my daily driver. +[5073.84 --> 5077.30] Um, and I'll go into this in much more detail when I do my full video. +[5077.44 --> 5079.40] But I do use Parallels for some things. +[5079.46 --> 5079.90] I do cheat. +[5079.98 --> 5081.78] I use Windows applications for a few things. +[5081.80 --> 5083.46] But I think that's, like, how it should be used. +[5083.48 --> 5084.82] I think that's how people use Mac. +[5084.94 --> 5085.18] Yeah. +[5085.44 --> 5085.86] It's funny. +[5085.96 --> 5089.02] I think my mom is actually a bigger Mac hater than me. +[5089.60 --> 5091.50] Her whole school is Apple. +[5091.50 --> 5094.78] And I was, uh, I was, I was there for Christmas. +[5094.92 --> 5096.42] And I was like, whose iPad is this? +[5096.72 --> 5097.60] She's like, mine. +[5098.16 --> 5100.32] I'm like, when did you get an iPad? +[5100.52 --> 5101.48] She's like, it's for work. +[5101.92 --> 5104.68] And she's just like, it's like, it's like... +[5104.68 --> 5106.62] And she just goes off on, like, a tirade, right? +[5106.90 --> 5109.92] She's just like, it's like they don't get it. +[5110.10 --> 5113.32] Every time something doesn't work because it's a Mac, +[5113.62 --> 5117.30] they're, like, perplexed that it wouldn't work because it's a Mac. +[5117.30 --> 5119.82] And she's just like, I can do this on my PC. +[5119.82 --> 5124.10] And every time they're surprised, freshly. +[5124.58 --> 5126.58] It doesn't work because it's a Mac. +[5127.06 --> 5128.20] I'm just like, whoa, Mom. +[5128.78 --> 5129.06] Whoa. +[5129.90 --> 5134.78] So, um, so yeah, we've actually got a really cool build log coming +[5134.78 --> 5136.76] that was a collaborative thing with WD. +[5136.86 --> 5139.76] We wanted this to happen during the holiday season, +[5139.76 --> 5142.04] but it looks like it's going to be hopefully next week +[5142.04 --> 5146.20] where we actually built a PC for a local school. +[5146.30 --> 5147.72] Speaking of my mom, who works at a school, +[5147.72 --> 5151.80] we built a PC for the Resource Center slash. +[5152.10 --> 5156.12] It also gets used for some video creation and stuff like that. +[5156.58 --> 5160.04] So we're building a PC with WD's help for a local school, +[5160.22 --> 5162.06] and we're going to be actually donating that. +[5162.12 --> 5164.54] Speaking of PCs for schools instead of Macs. +[5164.62 --> 5166.00] So that's going to be pretty cool. +[5166.08 --> 5166.96] The whole theme of it, +[5167.22 --> 5169.50] maybe should we just give away the peanut butter jelly thing? +[5170.18 --> 5170.90] Ah, let's give it away. +[5170.90 --> 5174.96] Okay, so the theme of it is what goes well together, +[5175.14 --> 5176.60] and WD's whole thing is like, +[5176.70 --> 5178.88] yes, an SSD is great for your OS drive, +[5179.20 --> 5182.44] but what could be better than SSD plus hard drive? +[5182.64 --> 5184.98] And it's kind of like a peanut butter and jelly type thing +[5184.98 --> 5186.70] because I think we can all agree +[5186.70 --> 5190.66] that one alone is not the best tool for the job. +[5190.74 --> 5192.64] You should be running an SSD for your OS +[5192.64 --> 5194.34] and your key applications and a hard drive +[5194.34 --> 5195.72] for your overflow and storage. +[5195.72 --> 5196.96] We should figure out how that resulted +[5196.96 --> 5199.66] in us having peanut butter and jelly in our hair +[5199.66 --> 5201.46] once that video comes out. +[5201.64 --> 5202.74] So don't miss that one. +[5202.88 --> 5203.82] Don't miss that build log. +[5204.92 --> 5205.52] Ridiculous. +[5205.82 --> 5207.24] You know, I'd love to hear from you guys +[5207.24 --> 5210.58] how you are enjoying the build log format in general. +[5210.70 --> 5212.78] It's a little bit different from our build guides, +[5213.28 --> 5215.10] and I'll straw pool this up here. +[5217.40 --> 5221.10] How have you been enjoying... +[5221.10 --> 5222.64] Do we have anything else to cover today? +[5222.64 --> 5226.00] Not majorly, I don't think. +[5226.18 --> 5228.22] Again, a lot of stuff wasn't really going that crazy +[5228.22 --> 5229.48] because it was Christmas. +[5231.14 --> 5233.60] Good few companies weren't even really doing anything this week. +[5233.92 --> 5234.32] Yes. +[5234.48 --> 5236.00] So, I don't know. +[5237.02 --> 5238.08] I had a lot of people ask +[5238.08 --> 5240.50] if we were going to do a WAN show today +[5240.50 --> 5242.30] because it's a stat. +[5242.52 --> 5243.22] It's not a stat. +[5243.32 --> 5243.88] It's not a stat. +[5244.14 --> 5245.48] And even if it was, I'd be here. +[5245.50 --> 5246.06] I think it might be a stat in Ontario, +[5246.36 --> 5248.72] and I think it's a stat for federal employees everywhere. +[5249.34 --> 5250.80] But it's not a stat for everyone. +[5251.22 --> 5251.48] Yeah. +[5251.48 --> 5252.54] It's funny. +[5252.68 --> 5256.20] One of our newer employees was surprised +[5256.20 --> 5258.84] to find out that there were only two days off +[5258.84 --> 5260.08] in the holiday season. +[5261.78 --> 5262.78] It's like, really? +[5263.20 --> 5264.72] Welcome to content schedules. +[5265.30 --> 5265.48] Yeah. +[5265.78 --> 5269.28] Welcome to, like, you know, +[5269.48 --> 5271.24] not a cushy corporate job. +[5272.42 --> 5273.22] Sorry, man. +[5273.64 --> 5274.70] You know what's funny, though, +[5274.70 --> 5279.32] is our recent transition from the corporate job +[5279.32 --> 5280.58] that, like, paid better. +[5281.06 --> 5282.74] I was talking to him about this the other day. +[5282.82 --> 5284.60] He says this is, like, way better. +[5284.82 --> 5285.00] Yeah. +[5285.14 --> 5286.54] Like, way better. +[5286.76 --> 5289.58] Like, he would take the pay cut every day +[5289.58 --> 5290.88] to work for a smaller company +[5290.88 --> 5293.42] where he has creative freedom and, like... +[5293.42 --> 5296.14] More say and ability to just do things. +[5296.14 --> 5296.20] Yeah. +[5296.20 --> 5298.14] Can be excited about his job every day. +[5298.14 --> 5299.86] He's just like, yeah, the amount of money +[5299.86 --> 5303.02] that people spend to make themselves happy +[5303.02 --> 5304.70] when they work in a job that they hate +[5304.70 --> 5305.44] that pays better, +[5306.10 --> 5308.34] he feels like for him just cancels out +[5308.34 --> 5310.16] because he doesn't need to spend a bunch of money +[5310.16 --> 5311.42] to make himself happy anymore. +[5311.68 --> 5312.94] And he's just like, yeah, +[5313.36 --> 5314.74] eight plus hours a day, +[5314.78 --> 5315.74] I'm going to be at work. +[5315.74 --> 5318.28] So if you also sleep six to seven hours a day, +[5318.30 --> 5322.24] that means literally half of your time in your life. +[5322.24 --> 5325.12] And then there's time that goes into getting to work +[5325.12 --> 5326.26] and getting ready for work +[5326.26 --> 5328.66] and leaving work and winding down from work. +[5328.70 --> 5331.10] So it's like the majority of your day is working. +[5331.44 --> 5331.64] Yeah. +[5332.04 --> 5333.36] So it's like, I was like, yeah, +[5333.42 --> 5335.14] that is a really interesting perspective. +[5335.22 --> 5336.62] I mean, it's part of the reason that I did this. +[5336.66 --> 5338.02] I didn't want to work with tools. +[5338.38 --> 5341.84] So I was like, I'll just make my own team with no tools. +[5343.78 --> 5345.62] Except for the hardware bin. +[5345.98 --> 5348.92] So people are mostly enjoying the whole build log format. +[5349.28 --> 5349.72] So that's cool. +[5349.76 --> 5350.28] I like it. +[5350.36 --> 5351.96] I actually really, I like filming it. +[5352.06 --> 5352.98] I like watching it. +[5353.94 --> 5356.50] I've watched every build log after we've done them. +[5356.96 --> 5358.02] Like the mineral oil build logs, +[5358.10 --> 5359.24] I watched every single one of those. +[5359.38 --> 5359.52] Yeah. +[5360.78 --> 5363.06] I like it personally, so I'm happy they like it. +[5363.44 --> 5365.10] I find it fun to build it that way. +[5365.56 --> 5365.74] Yeah. +[5365.74 --> 5367.36] Because we just get to kind of do whatever +[5367.36 --> 5369.30] and that's probably why it's fun to watch too. +[5369.30 --> 5370.78] It's a lot more fun to teamwork, +[5371.34 --> 5373.58] like building a computer than it is to build one by yourself. +[5373.76 --> 5374.22] It really is. +[5374.22 --> 5375.44] And I think that's like, +[5375.92 --> 5377.16] I think that's how it is in real life too. +[5377.28 --> 5377.74] Yeah, that's true. +[5377.82 --> 5380.44] Even if you're not logging it or whatever else. +[5380.64 --> 5382.24] Most of the computers that I've built, +[5382.30 --> 5383.84] like if I would build a computer for a friend, +[5384.02 --> 5385.08] say I was back in high school, +[5385.36 --> 5387.38] that's where I built most of my computers for friends +[5387.38 --> 5388.42] or in university or whatever. +[5388.64 --> 5388.80] Yeah. +[5388.80 --> 5391.74] I would just get them to come over +[5391.74 --> 5392.96] and I'd build it with them +[5392.96 --> 5394.56] and just try to like teach them how to do it +[5394.56 --> 5395.14] while we were going. +[5395.24 --> 5395.64] And I'd be like, +[5395.70 --> 5396.58] all right, so you have to do this. +[5396.64 --> 5398.00] And I'd get them to do it +[5398.00 --> 5399.30] and try to guide them through it and stuff. +[5399.36 --> 5400.78] And it was honestly pretty cool. +[5400.92 --> 5404.02] And then a fairly basic computer +[5404.02 --> 5405.74] is fairly basic to build. +[5406.10 --> 5407.32] So by the end of it, +[5407.40 --> 5409.32] they were able to feel fairly confident +[5409.32 --> 5410.24] about building computers. +[5410.24 --> 5411.70] And then a lot of them from that +[5411.70 --> 5412.82] are now interested in computers +[5412.82 --> 5413.78] and building their own stuff. +[5413.78 --> 5414.98] And it's cool. +[5415.12 --> 5416.48] I like building computers with people. +[5416.94 --> 5418.92] So I think we'll close out the show +[5418.92 --> 5423.58] with just sort of one more recap thing. +[5423.64 --> 5424.60] I wanted to thank you guys +[5424.60 --> 5426.36] for making this such an incredible year. +[5426.86 --> 5429.82] And not just an incredible year overall, +[5430.04 --> 5431.74] but even just lately, +[5432.02 --> 5435.94] your support's been even more than ever before. +[5435.94 --> 5439.38] I mean, this year we hit a bunch of amazing milestones. +[5439.72 --> 5442.02] We broke the 1 million subscriber threshold. +[5442.02 --> 5444.24] So my understanding is that our gold plaque +[5444.24 --> 5445.50] is actually in the mail. +[5445.88 --> 5446.30] Oh, cool. +[5446.40 --> 5448.40] Or should be at some point in the near future here. +[5449.08 --> 5452.32] We also reached new all-time highs +[5452.32 --> 5453.96] for views in a single day. +[5454.50 --> 5456.26] We just crushed the old record +[5456.26 --> 5457.98] when we were releasing mineral oil. +[5458.10 --> 5459.56] And I think we released a mineral oil +[5459.56 --> 5461.84] and a whole room water cooling video back to back. +[5462.22 --> 5464.10] So we just completely destroyed +[5464.10 --> 5465.10] That's going to be hard to beat. +[5465.10 --> 5467.92] The previous record we set at CES 2013 +[5467.92 --> 5470.08] when we released like 20 videos in one day. +[5470.46 --> 5470.54] Yeah. +[5470.54 --> 5472.88] So that was while releasing only one video a day. +[5473.96 --> 5475.66] We also, in December, +[5475.86 --> 5478.64] are going to destroy our previous all-time high +[5478.64 --> 5479.78] for monthly views. +[5479.98 --> 5482.52] So our previous best was actually last month +[5482.52 --> 5484.74] at 11.89 million. +[5485.28 --> 5486.72] And then this month, +[5486.76 --> 5489.16] we are tracking something like 13.5 million +[5489.16 --> 5490.46] in one month, +[5490.52 --> 5492.96] making us one of the largest tech channels +[5492.96 --> 5494.18] on the entire YouTube. +[5494.58 --> 5495.54] So, you know, that's... +[5495.54 --> 5497.62] We want to thank you guys so much +[5497.62 --> 5498.98] for your support there as well. +[5499.86 --> 5501.82] Another big one is TechQuickie. +[5502.20 --> 5503.38] Like, I don't know how many of you +[5503.38 --> 5504.48] are subscribed to TechQuickie, +[5504.54 --> 5506.46] but I'm really proud of what we're doing over here. +[5507.10 --> 5508.90] I think it's great content. +[5509.08 --> 5510.06] I think you guys agree. +[5510.24 --> 5513.46] It's tracking close to 1,000 new subscribers a day, +[5513.82 --> 5515.50] around 100,000 views a day. +[5515.50 --> 5517.06] I mean, our secondary channel +[5517.06 --> 5519.84] is as big as a lot of other YouTubers' +[5520.14 --> 5521.54] primary channels at this point. +[5521.78 --> 5523.52] And it's only because of you guys +[5523.52 --> 5525.34] that we can do stuff like that. +[5526.14 --> 5527.86] And then TechQuickie as well +[5527.86 --> 5530.60] is going to absolutely crush its previous best, +[5530.70 --> 5531.64] which was set last month, +[5531.72 --> 5533.28] 2.35 million views. +[5533.72 --> 5535.80] And we are tracking over 3 million +[5535.80 --> 5537.56] for the last 30 days. +[5537.56 --> 5537.58] Nice. +[5537.58 --> 5540.94] So you guys are just making this work for us. +[5541.36 --> 5544.42] I feel like we're also working really hard at it, +[5544.86 --> 5547.66] but this kind of stuff doesn't happen +[5547.66 --> 5548.98] without you guys tuning in +[5548.98 --> 5550.02] and watching all the videos. +[5550.20 --> 5551.94] I mean, WAN Show has gone +[5551.94 --> 5555.56] from 50,000 views per archive +[5555.56 --> 5557.46] to over 100,000 this year. +[5557.60 --> 5557.82] Yep. +[5558.34 --> 5561.26] Linus Tech Tips videos in general have gone... +[5561.26 --> 5563.60] I mean, it's not just the overall viewership +[5563.60 --> 5565.08] of the archived content. +[5565.08 --> 5567.66] I mean, it wasn't that long ago, +[5567.78 --> 5568.30] just here, +[5568.76 --> 5570.72] sort of having a look at my dashboard here, +[5570.80 --> 5571.96] it wasn't that long ago +[5571.96 --> 5574.50] that something with 200,000 views +[5574.50 --> 5575.88] was an exception +[5575.88 --> 5577.72] and something with, you know, +[5577.80 --> 5579.44] 100,000 views was great. +[5579.56 --> 5580.74] That was earlier this year. +[5581.16 --> 5582.08] Nowadays, I mean, +[5582.10 --> 5583.52] you look at everything we release, +[5583.64 --> 5587.78] 150,000, 170,000, 255,000, 221,000. +[5587.90 --> 5589.66] This is all stuff from like a week ago. +[5589.94 --> 5590.10] Yeah. +[5590.54 --> 5591.78] You guys are just, yeah, +[5591.82 --> 5593.06] you're blowing us away with your support +[5593.06 --> 5594.14] and we really appreciate it. +[5594.14 --> 5596.90] And here's to a fantastic 2015. +[5597.22 --> 5599.22] And also, I guess I can confirm +[5599.22 --> 5600.58] when we're taking possession +[5600.58 --> 5601.98] of the new office space. +[5602.20 --> 5604.08] So that'll be at the end of February. +[5604.76 --> 5605.90] There'll be a lot of work +[5605.90 --> 5606.98] that needs to be done to it. +[5607.06 --> 5607.22] Yep. +[5607.34 --> 5607.70] But yeah. +[5608.00 --> 5609.94] Don't expect us to do a tour immediately, +[5610.62 --> 5612.84] but we're already in contact +[5612.84 --> 5613.84] with someone who's helping us +[5613.84 --> 5615.12] design the office space. +[5615.20 --> 5616.42] We do have to do some renovations. +[5616.42 --> 5618.32] So it'll take a while for us +[5618.32 --> 5619.10] to actually move in. +[5619.20 --> 5620.68] But yeah, we're really excited. +[5620.82 --> 5622.12] I think we're moving in a great direction +[5622.12 --> 5623.86] and you guys are really helping us get there. +[5624.06 --> 5626.42] So with all that touchy-feely stuff +[5626.42 --> 5626.96] out of the way, +[5627.56 --> 5628.20] thanks for watching. +[5628.30 --> 5629.48] We'll see you guys again next week +[5629.48 --> 5629.98] in the new year. +[5630.98 --> 5631.26] Bye. +[5632.86 --> 5633.26] Outro. +[5635.34 --> 5635.96] Oh, geez. +[5636.38 --> 5636.84] I got this. +[5636.94 --> 5637.28] I got this. +[5637.28 --> 5637.30] I got this. +[5638.58 --> 5639.84] Some

late. I'm glad we're live. And I'm glad we're alive. +[9.34 --> 15.56] I'm sorry we're talking to you today. I'm sorry about our awesome topics that we're going to get into. +[15.56 --> 19.56] Sorry to disappoint you with all of that. I think the mic's pointing directly at me. +[19.56 --> 25.94] They're disappointed about the, and it's really high up, they're disappointed about the tardiness of the show. +[25.94 --> 33.44] But we're sorry about the good quality show. We're sorry that it's so good that they have to wait for it to go live even though it's late. +[33.44 --> 36.44] What the hell are you talking about? +[36.44 --> 39.44] I'm trying to buy you time because you're apparently doing stuff. +[39.44 --> 50.94] We are not off to a good start today. Although, we do have something pretty cool in store for you guys involving like hand camming and POV. +[50.94 --> 51.94] At all? +[51.94 --> 53.44] Yeah, yeah, it works. I tested it already. +[53.44 --> 53.94] Okay. +[53.94 --> 60.44] Yeah, mind you, that doesn't necessarily mean it will continue to work because that's often the problem we have around here. +[60.44 --> 61.44] Hooray! +[61.44 --> 65.44] We might go a week without touching anything and come back and nothing works. +[65.44 --> 66.44] Everything's changed. +[66.44 --> 69.94] Which isn't what happened this time because we actually changed everything. +[69.94 --> 71.94] So it shouldn't be surprising that nothing works. +[71.94 --> 72.94] Yep. +[72.94 --> 73.94] But we're surprised anyway. +[73.94 --> 74.94] Yep. +[74.94 --> 77.44] Welcome to the WAN Show guys. We've got some great topics today. +[77.44 --> 87.94] Apple's value drops by 28 billions of dollars all on account of some leaked celebrity nude photos. +[87.94 --> 92.94] The funniest thing about the whole thing you'll find out later because that's how this show works. +[92.94 --> 94.94] Oh, snap. +[94.94 --> 100.44] Also, Nvidia starts a legal battle with Samsung and Qualcomm at the same time just throwing punches all over the place. +[100.44 --> 101.44] Heavyweight battle! +[101.44 --> 103.44] Also, Nvidia. +[103.44 --> 104.44] Don't. +[104.44 --> 105.44] Sorry, Nvidia. +[105.44 --> 106.44] Correct! +[106.44 --> 107.44] I love you guys, Nvidia. +[107.44 --> 108.44] Oh, no. +[108.44 --> 115.94] Also, the first round of September's crazy mobile month has begun and we'll talk about some of those announcements later on. +[115.94 --> 122.94] And in other news, 4chan now has a DMCA takedown policy. +[122.94 --> 128.94] It's amazing what a couple of celebrity nude photos that get stolen and leaked will do. +[128.94 --> 134.94] Not all the child porn and other crap, but celebrity nude photos. +[134.94 --> 137.44] I mean, Jennifer Lawrence is upset. +[137.44 --> 138.44] Is she? +[138.44 --> 139.94] Is that whose photos were leaked? +[139.94 --> 141.44] Either her or Garner. +[141.44 --> 142.44] I can never remember. +[142.44 --> 143.44] I don't know the difference. +[143.44 --> 144.44] I don't really follow celebrities. +[144.44 --> 145.44] It's not Aniston. +[145.44 --> 146.44] I know that much. +[146.44 --> 148.44] She's the one from Friends. +[148.44 --> 153.44] I know the internet likes Jennifer Lawrence, but I'm not 100% sure. +[153.44 --> 154.44] I think she's the Hunger Games one. +[154.44 --> 155.44] Is she? +[155.44 --> 156.44] Yeah, I think so. +[156.44 --> 157.44] Oh. +[157.44 --> 158.44] Yeah. +[158.44 --> 160.44] She's alright. +[160.44 --> 163.44] Moving on. +[163.44 --> 165.94] Not a show about movies. +[165.94 --> 187.94] I think our volumes are both low. +[187.94 --> 190.44] I think the volume is just low. +[190.44 --> 193.44] We can see if that helps a little. +[193.44 --> 195.94] Alright guys, we've got a couple of sponsors today. +[195.94 --> 197.44] Dollar Shave Club! +[197.44 --> 200.44] Shave time and shave money! +[200.44 --> 201.44] I keep... +[201.44 --> 205.44] I get all the credit for this bad pun, but it's like in their logo. +[205.44 --> 207.44] It's not my fault. +[207.44 --> 209.44] Yeah, don't they say that in their own commercials? +[209.44 --> 210.44] Yes, they do. +[210.44 --> 211.44] Oh. +[211.44 --> 213.94] Alright, and Squarespace, 10% off with offer code Linus. +[213.94 --> 217.44] Make your own beautiful website on Squarespace.com. +[217.44 --> 218.44] Don't worry. +[218.44 --> 220.94] Your

website. +[228.44 --> 230.44] I mean, what do you think this is? +[230.44 --> 231.44] Like, YouTube? +[231.44 --> 239.94] Okay, technically we don't pay YouTube directly, but they certainly take their cut. +[239.94 --> 244.44] Anyway, let's move right into our first topic, because we are running a little bit late and +[244.44 --> 246.44] we're very sorry for that, you guys. +[246.44 --> 249.94] You know, the usual story involving technical difficulties. +[249.94 --> 251.44] Today's was a lot worse than normal though. +[251.44 --> 252.44] Yeah. +[252.44 --> 254.94] I think you'll have come to be used to like 3-5 minutes. +[254.94 --> 256.94] Yeah, no, today was pretty bad. +[256.94 --> 261.94] I mean, part of the problem is that we're way behind on making videos, because we've +[261.94 --> 267.44] been out of the office and it was a short week, so there was a holiday Monday this week. +[267.44 --> 272.44] So we had to effectively create an entire week's worth of videos in like 3 days. +[272.44 --> 276.94] So I was back here filming a lot of the last little bits and pieces of my upcoming HTC +[276.94 --> 279.44] 1M8 for Windows phone review. +[279.44 --> 286.44] It is a very good thing for HTC that they released that before the flood of new products, +[286.44 --> 292.44] you know, Note 4, Moto 360, new Moto X, before all that stuff started rolling in, because +[292.44 --> 296.44] otherwise I don't think it even would have gotten articles written about it. +[296.44 --> 299.44] My video is pretty negative. +[299.44 --> 306.44] I love the phone, and I mean phone in like a physical, like made of molecules sense. +[306.44 --> 307.44] Yeah. +[307.44 --> 310.44] I love the phone, but the one I made is still great. +[310.44 --> 314.44] Well, you could argue software is not made of molecules. +[314.44 --> 317.44] It's made of thoughts and dreams. +[317.44 --> 318.44] Ponies. +[318.44 --> 319.44] Thoughts and dreams. +[319.44 --> 320.44] Thoughts, dreams, and ponies. +[320.44 --> 321.44] That's fantastic. +[321.44 --> 322.44] Linus' software tips. +[322.44 --> 326.44] We should just get Barnacles back on the show, because I clearly have no idea what I'm +[326.44 --> 327.44] talking about. +[327.44 --> 329.44] You should replace me permanently. +[329.44 --> 330.44] Yeah. +[330.44 --> 334.44] So like, the next time people need to do like an order form for supplies for a programming +[334.44 --> 338.44] house, because that exists other than energy drinks, they're going to be thoughts, dreams, +[338.44 --> 339.44] ponies. +[339.44 --> 340.44] Thoughts, dreams, ponies. +[340.44 --> 344.44] They'll be like, well I can't get these two, but we'll definitely get a good stock of ponies. +[344.44 --> 348.44] And like, places like Staples, they have it set up so that you can have recurring orders. +[348.44 --> 352.44] So like, every month you can get four ponies delivered. +[352.44 --> 356.44] If you want to fix your software, you just need to like, increase the count of thoughts, +[356.44 --> 357.44] dreams, and ponies. +[357.44 --> 358.44] Yeah. +[358.44 --> 361.44] And the problems with some software is they might have too many ponies or too many thoughts +[361.44 --> 362.44] and not enough dreams. +[362.44 --> 364.44] It's all about the ratio. +[364.44 --> 365.44] Exactly. +[365.44 --> 369.44] But the only way to get dreams and ponies, because you can get them both at the same time, +[369.44 --> 371.44] is actually to import eight year old girls. +[371.44 --> 374.44] They have dreams about ponies. +[374.44 --> 375.44] That's really interesting. +[375.44 --> 376.44] And it saves you space. +[376.44 --> 377.44] That's efficiency. +[377.44 --> 380.44] Because a six year old girl takes up so much less space than a pony. +[380.44 --> 383.44] This is something that modern software developers have not been doing very well. +[383.44 --> 387.44] That's why Windows is so large on your device that you put it on. +[387.44 --> 388.44] Yeah, that's right. +[388.44 --> 391.44] Because one eight year old girl could potentially dream of dozens of ponies. +[391.44 --> 392.44] Yep. +[392.44 --> 393.44] Yep. +[393.44 --> 394.44] Yep. +[394.44 --> 395.44] Alright, so moving on. +[395.44 --> 403.44] Apple's value drops by $26 billion on account of the celebrity nude photo leaks. +[403.44 --> 409.44] So share prices fell by $4.36 per share or 4.2%. +[409.44 --> 415.44] This is the biggest decline in share price since January 28th 2014. +[415.44 --> 418.44] Yeah, January when it dropped by $6.19. +[418.44 --> 422.44] So it's still up almost $30 since January 28th 2014. +[422.44 --> 427.44] So it's not like Apple shareholders aren't still getting their money's worth out of that +[427.44 --> 428.44] particular investment. +[428.44 --> 429.44] Yeah. +[429.44 --> 430.44] Their value is still close to $600 billion. +[430.44 --> 435.44] They're still the most highly valued U.S. company in the world. +[435.44 --> 439.44] There's so many things that are like that though. +[439.44 --> 441.44] Like the World Series in the U.S. +[441.44 --> 442.44] In the U.S. +[442.44 --> 443.44] Love it. +[443.44 --> 450.44] And I mean honestly I think the most ridiculous thing about all of this is it's all just hype. +[450.44 --> 451.44] Yeah. +[451.44 --> 461.44] This is the scary thing about publicly traded companies is how much of how we value them has nothing to do with anything. +[461.44 --> 462.44] Yes. +[462.44 --> 472.44] Some nudie pictures were obtained illegally, amorally, just in a super crappy. +[472.44 --> 473.44] You don't steal people's stuff. +[473.44 --> 478.44] And I was actually really disappointed to see even on our own Linus Tech Tips forum +[478.44 --> 484.44] people discussing how well if you don't want nude pictures leaked on the internet then you just shouldn't take them. +[484.44 --> 487.44] And that you have loose morals if you're taking nude pictures. +[487.44 --> 488.44] You know what? +[488.44 --> 489.44] What? +[489.44 --> 492.44] Do I have loose morals if my wife sees me naked? +[492.44 --> 495.44] Like is that how this works? +[495.44 --> 499.44] Obviously the picture was intended for a given recipient. +[499.44 --> 502.44] Normally I'd like try to be devil's advocate but I just... +[502.44 --> 503.44] No. +[503.44 --> 504.44] No. +[504.44 --> 507.44] When something is stolen illegally that's wrong. +[507.44 --> 515.44] And yes, online security and taking care of the naked pictures of yourself is your responsibility. +[515.44 --> 518.44] You do have to do that because this stuff does happen. +[518.44 --> 525.44] But that doesn't make stuff that's out there that isn't as well protected as something else just ripe for the taking. +[525.44 --> 526.44] It's still wrong. +[526.44 --> 529.44] And the kind of victim blaming that was going on. +[529.44 --> 535.44] Like I'm not going to get into the whole feminazi thing because I'm super not into that whole movement either. +[535.44 --> 540.44] But I also strongly disagree with the amount of victim blaming that's going on here. +[540.44 --> 544.44] And I mean the whole thing has gotten way too much coverage. +[544.44 --> 552.44] I don't even really like that we're even talking about it because I feel like by drawing attention to it you're just turning it into a much bigger deal than it is. +[552.44 --> 555.44] It's a couple nude pictures of some women. +[555.44 --> 560.44] The internet is full of nude pictures of women who did it on purpose. +[560.44 --> 561.44] So many. +[561.44 --> 565.44] Who actually got paid to create those nude photos. +[565.44 --> 571.44] Why does it matter if they happen to also star in movies and why are we obsessing over this and why is it such a big deal? +[571.44 --> 572.44] Let them get on with their lives. +[572.44 --> 573.44] It's unreal. +[573.44 --> 574.44] Yeah. +[574.44 --> 576.44] Anyway, the point of all that... +[576.44 --> 577.44] Sorry, go ahead. +[577.44 --> 578.44] Sorry, no. +[578.44 --> 580.44] And it wasn't even necessarily Apple's fault. +[580.44 --> 582.44] That was exactly where I was going. +[582.44 --> 583.44] I thought so, yeah. +[583.44 --> 584.44] Yeah. +[584.44 --> 589.44] So like Apple spent more than 40 hours of investigation which doesn't sound like a crazy amount. +[589.44 --> 590.44] That's a lot. +[590.44 --> 592.44] A company the size of Apple? +[592.44 --> 594.44] The number of engineers they have? +[594.44 --> 598.44] Oh, see, when I read that I thought about that as like, well, two people is... +[598.44 --> 602.44] That's 20 hours of man hours for two people. +[602.44 --> 604.44] I calculated an overall man hours. +[604.44 --> 605.44] Oh. +[605.44 --> 606.44] But I think you're probably right. +[606.44 --> 607.44] No, I don't think so. +[607.44 --> 608.44] Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm right. +[608.44 --> 610.44] It was probably a department for 40 hours. +[610.44 --> 611.44] That's a lot. +[611.44 --> 617.44] Anyways, and they figured out that it was more using stuff like they were targeting usernames, which are probably not that hard to get. +[617.44 --> 618.44] Yeah. +[618.44 --> 619.44] In a lot of situations they're not. +[619.44 --> 626.44] And then using common password stuff and security question hacks, which is like... +[626.44 --> 627.44] Not a hack. +[627.44 --> 628.44] ...guessing it. +[628.44 --> 629.44] Yeah. +[629.44 --> 630.44] Guessing it or looking it up. +[630.44 --> 631.44] Or looking it up. +[631.44 --> 633.44] I mean, that's the scary thing to me. +[633.44 --> 644.44] The way that security is handled, even by companies as large as Apple sometimes, where they'll lock in what kind of a password you can choose, or worse yet, lock in the security questions you can choose. +[644.44 --> 645.44] Security questions. +[645.44 --> 646.44] Super dumb. +[646.44 --> 656.44] The only safe way to set up a security question for yourself, guys, if it's a predetermined list, because especially for celebrities, that information's out there. +[656.44 --> 658.44] You think someone doesn't, you know... +[658.44 --> 662.44] Doesn't know what car you first bought or what elementary school you went to. +[662.44 --> 663.44] That's right. +[663.44 --> 664.44] Or what your teacher's name was. +[664.44 --> 665.44] Like, no. +[665.44 --> 666.44] That's not that hard to find. +[666.44 --> 667.44] That crap is out there. +[667.44 --> 673.44] So the way that I actually do it is I have some security answers that have nothing to do with the question. +[673.44 --> 675.44] And I just pick a random question. +[675.44 --> 679.44] Because it is extremely dangerous to just use one of those things. +[679.44 --> 680.44] Mother's maiden name? +[680.44 --> 681.44] Come on. +[681.44 --> 682.44] This is the digital age. +[682.44 --> 683.44] So stupid. +[683.44 --> 684.44] That is very obtainable. +[684.44 --> 689.44] And so, yeah, that whole argument exists where people are responsible for their own digital security. +[689.44 --> 690.44] But you know what? +[690.44 --> 695.44] That's the kind of thing that I think nerd assholes say, quite frankly. +[695.44 --> 698.44] Because, yeah, okay, you're into digital security. +[698.44 --> 699.44] Good for you! +[699.44 --> 700.44] Like, that's cool. +[700.44 --> 701.44] That's your hobby. +[701.44 --> 702.44] That's great. +[702.44 --> 704.44] Some people have other things to do. +[704.44 --> 705.44] And that's fine. +[705.44 --> 707.44] Maybe they make movies. +[707.44 --> 715.44] Maybe they don't sit and research digital security best practices on Reddit every night, because they're reading through scripts to make millions of dollars. +[715.44 --> 721.44] And maybe you kind of make the argument, oh, well then, perhaps they should have a team of people who work for them who manage their digital security. +[721.44 --> 722.44] Come on! +[722.44 --> 723.44] Be real. +[723.44 --> 724.44] These are people. +[724.44 --> 729.44] Not, like, enterprises that exist under them. +[729.44 --> 732.44] So, I don't even remember where I was going with that. +[732.44 --> 738.44] But I'm just, I'm driven crazy by people being upset that someone doesn't know something that they do. +[738.44 --> 739.44] You know what? +[739.44 --> 742.44] There's a lot of things that he knows that I don't. +[742.44 --> 744.44] And there's a lot of things I know that he doesn't. +[744.44 --> 745.44] Yeah. +[745.44 --> 753.44] You know, I, if, if he had a baby tomorrow, I could either be a jackass and be like, well, you know, you got poop on your hands. +[753.44 --> 757.44] What, you didn't know how to, you know, blind the, do the things? +[757.44 --> 758.44] Nope. +[758.44 --> 759.44] Not at all. +[759.44 --> 761.44] I know jack all about taking care of babies. +[761.44 --> 762.44] And. +[762.44 --> 764.44] That was actually a pretty good analogy, because I literally know nothing. +[764.44 --> 765.44] I know. +[765.44 --> 766.44] I know you do. +[766.44 --> 774.44] So, to me, it's just, it's, it's so upsetting to see people mocking and see people blaming instead of actually trying to be helpful. +[774.44 --> 780.44] Which, mocking instead of trying to be helpful, that leads us pretty well into our next topic, doesn't it? +[780.44 --> 788.44] 4chan now has a DMCA policy following the whole leaked nude photos incident. +[788.44 --> 790.44] This was an article on Torrent Freak. +[790.44 --> 792.44] Just going to go ahead and screen share here. +[792.44 --> 802.44] Uh, so basically, in the wake of all this, 4chan finally intros a DMCA, so that's Digital Millennium Copyright Act, take down policy. +[802.44 --> 819.44] And I don't know if the more baffling thing about this is that it exists at all, or that, if it exists at all now, it didn't exist before with the massive amounts of, A, leaked nude photos on there in the past, of just normal people. +[819.44 --> 826.44] Once again, putting celebrities on this weird pedestal that, like, there's this weird double standard that exists. +[826.44 --> 827.44] Yeah. +[827.44 --> 829.44] And, and two, the amount of child porn. +[829.44 --> 830.44] Oh God. +[830.44 --> 831.44] On 4chan. +[831.44 --> 832.44] On 4chan. +[832.44 --> 838.44] I mean, 4chan, no offense to 4chan, but it's one of those sites that I avoid just based on principle. +[838.44 --> 841.44] You just, you just don't want someone to be able to know that you went there. +[841.44 --> 843.44] I won't, I won't hang out there. +[843.44 --> 845.44] It's not even about not wanting people to know. +[845.44 --> 849.44] There's, you know, there's incognito mode in your browser. +[849.44 --> 856.44] You know, there's sitting in a room alone at night, because I'm usually up till three or four in the morning anyway. +[856.44 --> 862.44] I could visit 4chan if I wanted to, but I would feel bad about wanting to. +[862.44 --> 863.44] Someone would know. +[863.44 --> 864.44] The NSA would know. +[864.44 --> 865.44] Yeah, the NSA might know. +[865.44 --> 867.44] And then you'd show up on their Google search thing. +[867.44 --> 870.44] Anyways, I don't even think this will matter at all. +[870.44 --> 871.44] No. +[871.44 --> 872.44] It won't affect anything. +[872.44 --> 874.44] It won't affect anything. +[874.44 --> 879.44] It's, it's, 4chan's gonna move way too fast, because 4chan moves way too fast. +[879.44 --> 880.44] Yeah. +[880.44 --> 882.44] And they'll be like, oh, we're gonna apply a DMCA policy. +[882.44 --> 884.44] And someone's gonna be like, restart the thread. +[884.44 --> 885.44] Doesn't matter. +[885.44 --> 886.44] At all. +[886.44 --> 887.44] Yeah. +[887.44 --> 890.44] Or people will just go to one of the other chans, which there are many of. +[890.44 --> 891.44] So. +[891.44 --> 892.44] So there's that. +[892.44 --> 893.44] I'm just. +[893.44 --> 894.44] Doesn't matter. +[894.44 --> 900.44] I'm just really surprised with the way that 4chan's always been like, internet, internet, rah, rah, rah. +[900.44 --> 904.44] We can put anything, literally anything on the internet. +[904.44 --> 911.44] Which, you have to, you have to respect that principle, even if you don't respect what it sometimes turns into. +[911.44 --> 913.44] Often, uh, okay. +[913.44 --> 915.44] Not always. +[915.44 --> 918.44] But often it's not a bad thing to stand up for. +[918.44 --> 919.44] No. +[919.44 --> 921.44] And I, and I totally agree with that principle. +[921.44 --> 927.44] It's just, it's so baffling to me that even though it won't affect anything, that they had this sudden change of heart. +[927.44 --> 929.44] They probably had to in some way. +[929.44 --> 930.44] In some way. +[930.44 --> 933.44] I haven't read enough into that part, but they, they were probably forced to in some way. +[933.44 --> 940.44] And then, I bet you Moot, uh, the guy that runs 4chan probably knew deep down that it just wouldn't change jack all. +[940.44 --> 941.44] Cause they, they can be sort of. +[941.44 --> 942.44] This is great. +[942.44 --> 944.44] Someone's like, 4chan doesn't have CP. +[944.44 --> 945.44] Okay then. +[945.44 --> 946.44] Um. +[946.44 --> 947.44] Moving on. +[947.44 --> 948.44] Um. +[948.44 --> 949.44] Yeah. +[949.44 --> 950.44] Um. +[950.44 --> 955.44] Someone can serve a DMCA thing for him to take it down and then he'll just be like, oh, well the thread 404 it anyways. +[955.44 --> 956.44] So. +[956.44 --> 957.44] Good work. +[957.44 --> 958.44] Yeah. +[958.44 --> 959.44] I guess. +[959.44 --> 960.44] Okay. +[960.44 --> 966.44] So shall we move on to, oh I guess that ties pretty well into, uh, Apple denies the iCloud breach. +[966.44 --> 967.44] Yeah. +[967.44 --> 969.44] Apple spent, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. +[969.44 --> 970.44] Um. +[970.44 --> 971.44] Oh yeah, right. +[971.44 --> 972.44] So the other, other things for the iCloud breach. +[972.44 --> 973.44] Yeah. +[973.44 --> 977.44] Is that they, uh, the two step notification thing and then two factor authentication is +[977.44 --> 978.44] interesting. +[978.44 --> 981.44] So the, I think two step was not enabled on that account, correct? +[981.44 --> 982.44] I think that's how that went. +[982.44 --> 987.44] I don't have, I don't have two factor authentication on any of my Apple accounts. +[987.44 --> 988.44] I'm not sure if they support it. +[988.44 --> 989.44] Two factor, not yet. +[989.44 --> 990.44] Um. +[990.44 --> 995.44] Recommends users to use their two step verification if they're concerned about security, but two +[995.44 --> 1001.44] factor authentication will also cover iCloud in the next version, next revision of iOS, which +[1001.44 --> 1002.44] will be later this month. +[1002.44 --> 1003.44] Yeah. +[1003.44 --> 1004.44] So that's coming very soon. +[1004.44 --> 1006.44] Actually, there's a lot of really cool stuff coming with iOS 8. +[1006.44 --> 1012.44] I've been using iOS 7 as much as I can leading up to the iPhone 6 launch when I'll take a, +[1012.44 --> 1014.44] take a run at it, uh, with iOS 8. +[1014.44 --> 1016.44] And I might, there's a couple of things I'm excited about. +[1016.44 --> 1018.44] We're finally getting SwiftKey. +[1018.44 --> 1019.44] Yeah. +[1019.44 --> 1021.44] So there's that. +[1021.44 --> 1023.44] That's a big one. +[1023.44 --> 1028.44] But, um, yeah, I mean, adding more security to things, especially two factor authentication, +[1028.44 --> 1034.44] which is basically a way of not just securing something with a password, but also with an +[1034.44 --> 1038.44] email or an authentication token that you have to use an app on your phone that you've +[1038.44 --> 1041.44] authenticated separately, um, is great. +[1041.44 --> 1046.44] It saved my Hotmail account from getting hijacked back when I had my YouTube account hijacked. +[1046.44 --> 1051.44] And if I had lost the Hotmail account, which was set up as the backup email, it would have +[1051.44 --> 1055.44] been much more difficult for me to get the YouTube channel back. +[1055.44 --> 1061.44] So having two step authentication or two factor authentication is super, super awesome. +[1061.44 --> 1063.44] And everyone should use it. +[1063.44 --> 1064.44] Yep. +[1064.44 --> 1065.44] Yep. +[1065.44 --> 1067.44] But we're also not going to blame people who don't use it. +[1067.44 --> 1068.44] Nope. +[1068.44 --> 1069.44] All right. +[1069.44 --> 1072.44] Motorola officially launches your new phone. +[1072.44 --> 1073.44] Want to talk about it a little bit? +[1073.44 --> 1075.44] Probably my new phone. +[1075.44 --> 1079.44] I'm not a hundred percent convinced yet, but very highly. +[1079.44 --> 1083.44] The big problem I have with it is there's a lot of improvements and I'll get to there +[1083.44 --> 1084.44] in a second. +[1084.44 --> 1085.44] That's a problem? +[1085.44 --> 1087.44] The big problem I have with it is there's a lot of improvements. +[1087.44 --> 1090.44] Isn't it great how when you take things out of context, they're funny? +[1090.44 --> 1091.44] Jerk. +[1091.44 --> 1093.44] I love how you admitted it was taken out of context though. +[1093.44 --> 1094.44] That helps me. +[1094.44 --> 1100.44] Um, it, it, it's running a 2300 milliamp hour battery, which is like dudes. +[1100.44 --> 1106.44] But then at the exact same time, my moto, my current moto X also has a teeny little battery +[1106.44 --> 1107.44] and it's not really that. +[1107.44 --> 1108.44] It does all right. +[1108.44 --> 1109.44] Doesn't it? +[1109.44 --> 1110.44] Yeah. +[1110.44 --> 1111.44] It's very, it's a very efficient phone. +[1111.44 --> 1113.44] It's run stock Android. +[1113.44 --> 1115.44] So there isn't a whole bunch of crap running on top of it. +[1115.44 --> 1120.44] And I have always been pretty Nazi about all the kind of stuff that's running on my phone. +[1120.44 --> 1122.44] I don't like extra stuff running on my phone. +[1122.44 --> 1124.44] So I don't have battery issues. +[1124.44 --> 1125.44] Yeah. +[1125.44 --> 1129.44] I found one that was, uh, that was, that was wrecking my phone battery on the one in eight. +[1129.44 --> 1132.44] Um, Plex. +[1132.44 --> 1133.44] Really? +[1133.44 --> 1134.44] Yeah. +[1134.44 --> 1135.44] Yeah. +[1135.44 --> 1137.44] I would, after I, idling Plex, idling Plex. +[1137.44 --> 1138.44] Yeah. +[1138.44 --> 1143.44] Doing nothing like boot up the phone and touch nothing and then leave it there at a hundred +[1143.44 --> 1144.44] percent and come back at the end of the day. +[1144.44 --> 1148.44] And it's at like 20% having not touched it like brutal. +[1148.44 --> 1153.44] So I uninstalled Plex and, uh, Android kernel started using way less. +[1153.44 --> 1158.44] So instead of like through a, through task management programs, I wasn't even able to narrow down which +[1158.44 --> 1162.44] one it was cause it was just hiding itself under multimedia something. +[1162.44 --> 1165.44] And then like Android kernel, we're both using ridiculous amounts of power. +[1165.44 --> 1169.44] So it's like Plex, I like you, but this isn't going to work for me. +[1169.44 --> 1175.44] With fairly heavy usage and leaving the thing on, on Moto X, where on this like idle screen where it shows the time and the lock, +[1175.44 --> 1177.44] it'll show what notifications are coming in. +[1177.44 --> 1178.44] Yeah. +[1178.44 --> 1179.44] Leaving that on, which is kind of suicide. +[1179.44 --> 1180.44] But that's OLED. +[1180.44 --> 1181.44] So that helps. +[1181.44 --> 1184.44] I know, but still, it still takes battery a little bit. +[1184.44 --> 1185.44] A little bit. +[1185.44 --> 1191.44] Um, I can still get through a day and a half of fairly heavy use and this thing has a teeny battery. +[1191.44 --> 1198.44] So it's not ideal, but I'm not super worried at the same time because of the experience I've had with this phone. +[1198.44 --> 1199.44] Right. +[1199.44 --> 1201.44] I'm hoping that it'll still be okay on the new one. +[1201.44 --> 1206.44] If we get a loaner unit, um, I know we're not getting a keeper unit from Motorola, but if we get a loaner unit, do you want to do the review? +[1206.44 --> 1207.44] Sure. +[1207.44 --> 1208.44] Okay. +[1208.44 --> 1209.44] Sure. +[1209.44 --> 1210.44] That would be cool. +[1210.44 --> 1211.44] So basically it's got a Snapdragon 802 2.5 gigahertz processor. +[1211.44 --> 1215.44] This is much closer to flagship class than the original Moto X was. +[1215.44 --> 1221.44] That was never intended to compete with the one M7 and the galaxy S4 at the time. +[1221.44 --> 1227.44] It was meant to be like a, you know, kind of step down, but very practical and very nice, all that. +[1227.44 --> 1229.44] But this one, no, this is like balls to the wall. +[1229.44 --> 1238.44] So 5.2 inch, 1080p, super AMOLED screen, 2 gigs of RAM, 16 to 32 gigs of non expandable memory. +[1238.44 --> 1241.44] Oh, front facing speakers though. +[1241.44 --> 1242.44] Yeah. +[1242.44 --> 1243.44] That's a big one. +[1243.44 --> 1244.44] Pretty stoked about that. +[1244.44 --> 1245.44] And then a lot of the usual customization features. +[1245.44 --> 1249.44] So we're even getting those, uh, wood panel backs, which I think is super awesome. +[1249.44 --> 1251.44] The ring flash is fairly interesting. +[1251.44 --> 1256.44] Now the camera, it has a silver ring on this one, but it's just, oh, you can't really see it at all. +[1256.44 --> 1257.44] It's just for aesthetic reasons. +[1257.44 --> 1267.44] On the new one, there's going to be a ring around the actual camera, which is its flash, which looks a little bit interesting because it looks like you have like, uh, +[1267.44 --> 1274.44] like, uh, in some of the pictures, at least it looks like you have a jewel in bed around your camera, which looks like super ghetto. +[1274.44 --> 1275.44] Right. +[1275.44 --> 1286.44] Speaking of, uh, speaking of the weird camera stuff, the iPhone six is rumored to have a raised camera bump as well, which is so un Apple like to compromise design for better functionality. +[1286.44 --> 1298.44] And I'm not a hundred percent sure how I feel about it because on the one hand, I do appreciate better functionality, you know, and I'm willing to give up a little bit of, you know, a bump here or a widget there or a dongle or whatever else. +[1298.44 --> 1309.44] But on the other hand, Apple was the one pushing the other guys who would compromise a little bit to strive for better design by never compromising on that. +[1309.44 --> 1314.44] So as much as I might not use a ton of Apple products, I appreciate what they've done for the industry. +[1314.44 --> 1321.44] And if they let it slip, I have a feeling the Samsungs and HTCs and LGs of the world will just completely drop the ball. +[1321.44 --> 1322.44] We'll let it slip that much more. +[1322.44 --> 1324.44] I wasn't going to say completely drop the ball. +[1324.44 --> 1325.44] I'm down with that. +[1325.44 --> 1327.44] I don't really buy Apple products. +[1327.44 --> 1330.44] There's a thread on the forum fairly recently where I talked about this. +[1330.44 --> 1332.44] I didn't even buy one of those old school iPods. +[1332.44 --> 1333.44] I had a creative zen. +[1333.44 --> 1337.44] Like I've never really been the dude that buys RCA Lyra. +[1337.44 --> 1338.44] There you go. +[1338.44 --> 1348.44] I've never really been the dude that buys Apple products at all, but I've always appreciated their existence because when they got into stuff like the MP3 market, either people got out of the market or stepped up their game. +[1348.44 --> 1349.44] Yeah. +[1349.44 --> 1352.44] And then I will buy the products from the dudes that stepped up their game. +[1352.44 --> 1355.44] I'm that dude, but I still appreciate their existence because they do that. +[1355.44 --> 1358.44] So I hope they don't screw up in the absence of Steve Jobs. +[1358.44 --> 1364.44] So it's going to be a hundred bucks on contract or $499.99 unlocked, which actually isn't that bad. +[1364.44 --> 1365.44] Sure. +[1365.44 --> 1369.44] It's not that competitive with something like a OnePlus One, but you can buy it without an invitation. +[1369.44 --> 1372.44] And also, OnePlus One is another one. +[1372.44 --> 1373.44] OnePlus... +[1373.44 --> 1375.44] You also don't have to like hate the company that makes your phone. +[1375.44 --> 1377.44] I think hate is a strong word. +[1377.44 --> 1379.44] I think they're mostly misguided. +[1379.44 --> 1380.44] Sure. +[1380.44 --> 1383.44] I don't think they do unpopular things on purpose. +[1383.44 --> 1385.44] I think they're legitimately trying to be liked. +[1385.44 --> 1390.44] I think at some level they just kind of don't get it, whether it's a cultural barrier or whatever else. +[1390.44 --> 1392.44] They're just like that dude that jumps into the room and is like, +[1392.44 --> 1393.44] Yeah, guys, check this out! +[1393.44 --> 1395.44] And everyone's like, oh... +[1395.44 --> 1396.44] No. +[1396.44 --> 1399.44] It's like, you know, that thing you've got there is pretty cool. +[1399.44 --> 1402.44] I just wish that you hadn't gotten your armpit grease on it. +[1402.44 --> 1403.44] That kind of thing. +[1403.44 --> 1404.44] Yeah. +[1404.44 --> 1405.44] I mostly like you. +[1405.44 --> 1410.44] Speaking of things that I mostly like, the Moto 360 has finally been announced. +[1410.44 --> 1411.44] This was originally... +[1411.44 --> 1412.44] Blech. +[1412.44 --> 1414.44] This was originally posted by Cyan Bob on the forum. +[1414.44 --> 1418.44] Speaking of which, Red Round 2 posted the Apple denies iCloud breach. +[1418.44 --> 1421.44] 99VW posted the other Apple value drops thing. +[1421.44 --> 1423.44] And then the Moto X one was posted by Dizmo. +[1423.44 --> 1425.44] I gotta give you guys the shout out! +[1425.44 --> 1431.44] And one thing I want to shout out too before we move on is that a lot of the articles from this week were written very well. +[1431.44 --> 1438.44] And were like, pretty long and well quoted with your own interpretation of what's going on and your own thoughts and opinions and stuff. +[1438.44 --> 1440.44] That will be more important very soon. +[1440.44 --> 1441.44] Yeah. +[1441.44 --> 1442.44] We'll have more details about that in a little while. +[1442.44 --> 1444.44] So the Moto 360 is announced. +[1444.44 --> 1446.44] You can pre-order them. +[1446.44 --> 1450.44] They're $250 US or $280 Canadian. +[1450.44 --> 1453.44] Available in the US now, Canada later in the fall. +[1453.44 --> 1458.44] It can be purchased from Motorola's website or the Google Play Store and from Best Buy. +[1458.44 --> 1462.44] This is the same Moto 360 we've been talking about for a long time. +[1462.44 --> 1464.44] The main difference is now you can actually buy one. +[1464.44 --> 1469.44] And once again, are you going smartwatch, my friend? +[1469.44 --> 1471.44] I actually probably will be. +[1471.44 --> 1474.44] But then this brings in another worrisome thought. +[1474.44 --> 1482.44] Which is where the Moto X that I'm thinking about jumping to because I have to give my current phone back to its rightful owner. +[1482.44 --> 1484.44] Has not a huge battery. +[1484.44 --> 1485.44] Even though it might be efficient. +[1485.44 --> 1490.44] I'm going to have to run these connected all the time and that could be another strain on the battery. +[1490.44 --> 1491.44] Yes. +[1491.44 --> 1495.44] It's less than you would think as someone who uses a smartwatch already. +[1495.44 --> 1496.44] I never have. +[1496.44 --> 1497.44] So I'm not really sure. +[1497.44 --> 1498.44] Yeah. +[1498.44 --> 1500.44] I think that's where you could probably benchmark it. +[1500.44 --> 1505.44] But day to day, it's not going to be like, oh my god, I have my Pebble on. +[1505.44 --> 1508.44] I had to pull out my charger six times. +[1508.44 --> 1510.44] It's not that kind of a difference. +[1510.44 --> 1515.44] And the benefit is just, oh man, so great. +[1515.44 --> 1521.44] I would like one because I've noticed more and more that I just leave my phone somewhere near me. +[1521.44 --> 1525.44] And I really like the screen feature where it will tell me what notification I get. +[1525.44 --> 1529.44] Because it will buzz because I usually have it on vibrate because we film. +[1529.44 --> 1530.44] Right. +[1530.44 --> 1536.44] And I'll just look over and if it's not like an email or a text, if it's like Instagram or Twitter or whatever, I'm like, okay, I can probably leave that for a little bit. +[1536.44 --> 1537.44] Yeah. +[1537.44 --> 1538.44] And check it later and it will be fine. +[1538.44 --> 1540.44] Yeah, no, it's fantastic. +[1540.44 --> 1542.44] And things like being able to control music. +[1542.44 --> 1543.44] Yeah. +[1543.44 --> 1551.44] That's what I do 90% of the time that I'm interacting with my Pebble when I'm not checking the timer reading a message. +[1551.44 --> 1552.44] That's pretty cool. +[1552.44 --> 1560.44] Is I'm controlling music from my pocket because, and this is another frustration as much as I love the way that Apple moves things forward in some ways. +[1560.44 --> 1563.44] Things like inline controls that work with your phone. +[1563.44 --> 1568.44] Yeah, Apple also doesn't necessarily do all the standards all the time. +[1568.44 --> 1576.44] So, so a lot of headsets, particularly from companies like Sennheiser that I really like, will have these inline controls that don't work with my Android phone. +[1576.44 --> 1580.44] So this is the way around it, being able to leave my phone in my pocket. +[1580.44 --> 1581.44] That is cool. +[1581.44 --> 1583.44] And this has okay Google support as well, right? +[1583.44 --> 1584.44] Yes. +[1584.44 --> 1590.44] So you will, I mean, aside from with the Moto X, you'll have support for Google now from your pocket anyway. +[1590.44 --> 1593.44] Yeah, but I'm assuming this will be able to hear it better. +[1593.44 --> 1595.44] And if I leave my phone somewhere else. +[1595.44 --> 1596.44] Yes. +[1596.44 --> 1599.44] And this will work with other phones that don't have that feature as well. +[1599.44 --> 1601.44] The thing I worry about here is battery life. +[1601.44 --> 1610.44] So anything with an always on, not E-ink or shoot, I forget, Mirasol or Mirasol display. +[1610.44 --> 1613.44] I worry very much about what the user experience is like. +[1613.44 --> 1621.44] And I would have liked to see someone pick up where Qualcomm left off with the talk with that Mirasol display. +[1621.44 --> 1624.44] It was much more power efficient than even AMOLED. +[1624.44 --> 1626.44] I mean, you can see that Motorola is trying here. +[1626.44 --> 1634.44] If we go back to the, to the picture of the watch, you can see that the stock watch face is mostly black. +[1634.44 --> 1637.44] That's the way AMOLED works. +[1637.44 --> 1640.44] Anything that's black is actually powered off. +[1640.44 --> 1647.44] So you're going to get some power savings just by having thin white elements on an otherwise black screen. +[1647.44 --> 1649.44] I just am not sure if it's going to be enough. +[1649.44 --> 1652.44] I already run out of battery on my Pebble from time to time. +[1652.44 --> 1656.44] And that one lasts me about four days. +[1656.44 --> 1660.44] So for something that I have to charge every night, I feel like it's a bit of a hassle. +[1660.44 --> 1661.44] Right. +[1661.44 --> 1662.44] I don't know. +[1662.44 --> 1666.44] This, again, these are, these are two things that I'm extremely interested in acquiring with. +[1666.44 --> 1670.44] And because I think they should honestly work pretty well together. +[1670.44 --> 1676.44] But I'm going to need to, and like the watch, like I'm going to have to wear the watch before I decide I'm going to buy it. +[1676.44 --> 1679.44] I'm not going to just order it online and be like, it'll show up and I will like it. +[1679.44 --> 1683.44] That was one of my big problems with the talk was it just plain wasn't comfortable. +[1683.44 --> 1684.44] Yeah. +[1684.44 --> 1689.44] Um, and this, this is where when, when we joke about Best Buy is like the Amazon showroom. +[1689.44 --> 1691.44] Like we actually need an Amazon showroom. +[1691.44 --> 1692.44] Yeah. +[1692.44 --> 1696.44] We need, we need showrooms from these companies, not necessarily stores, um, but showrooms. +[1696.44 --> 1697.44] Well. +[1697.44 --> 1699.44] Because I'd like to go in and be like, oh yeah, this is pretty cool. +[1699.44 --> 1704.44] And maybe have it be like, like the NCI X Langley kind of idea where you can order something +[1704.44 --> 1706.44] online and get it shipped there and then pick it up. +[1706.44 --> 1710.44] Well, I mean, you look at what guys like T-Mobile are doing, moving things into the 21st century +[1710.44 --> 1712.44] where they're, they were doing trial devices. +[1712.44 --> 1713.44] Yes. +[1713.44 --> 1714.44] Super cool. +[1714.44 --> 1715.44] That would be awesome. +[1715.44 --> 1716.44] That kind of thing I'm totally down for. +[1716.44 --> 1721.44] Like if I could go like new Moto X and Moto 360, let's do this for a week. +[1721.44 --> 1722.44] That would be great. +[1722.44 --> 1724.44] And I would know my answer for sure at the end of it. +[1724.44 --> 1725.44] Yep. +[1725.44 --> 1726.44] And that would be exactly what I want. +[1726.44 --> 1729.44] The issue with that is you'll never see a program like that at launch. +[1729.44 --> 1733.44] So for the enthusiasts and early adopters, the folks like us and the people watching this +[1733.44 --> 1737.44] show, that might not be that appealing because you're always going to have limited quantities +[1737.44 --> 1739.44] of something available at launch. +[1739.44 --> 1746.44] Even someone like Apple where they've got iPhone six in full fledged, full scale mass +[1746.44 --> 1751.44] production, like weeks or even months ahead of the actual launch date. +[1751.44 --> 1759.44] You can still never make enough of them unless it's like a bad product, in which case who +[1759.44 --> 1761.44] wants to use it anyway? +[1761.44 --> 1762.44] Yeah. +[1762.44 --> 1763.44] All right. +[1763.44 --> 1765.44] Let's move on to our next topic here. +[1765.44 --> 1770.44] Mozilla leaves a ton of passwords on a fairly open server twice. +[1770.44 --> 1771.44] Okay. +[1771.44 --> 1772.44] So there was a... +[1772.44 --> 1773.44] Hold on. +[1773.44 --> 1778.44] Posted by rainfall within on the forum in the original articles from Hot for Security. +[1778.44 --> 1779.44] Take it away, Luke. +[1779.44 --> 1782.44] There was a freaking ton of misinformation about this. +[1782.44 --> 1786.44] So I'm going to go through it generally and then clear up some stuff that there was +[1786.44 --> 1787.44] misinformation about. +[1787.44 --> 1791.44] So for the second time in a month, one of them was at the beginning of August and one +[1791.44 --> 1794.44] of them was on August 27th. +[1794.44 --> 1801.44] So the first one was 76,000 email addresses and 4,000 heavily encrypted passwords, not +[1801.44 --> 1803.44] plain text passwords. +[1803.44 --> 1807.44] And those were left publicly accessible on a server for 30 days. +[1807.44 --> 1808.44] Not good. +[1808.44 --> 1816.44] And then on August 27th, they found that 97,000 users also had issues who were not... +[1816.44 --> 1819.44] This isn't Firefox browser users. +[1819.44 --> 1822.44] This is one of the big misinformation things. +[1822.44 --> 1826.44] This isn't like, I had Firefox browser and my email was randomly stored on the server. +[1826.44 --> 1827.44] No. +[1828.44 --> 1832.44] These are people that were running test builds, not even just the normal thing. +[1832.44 --> 1834.44] Test builds of Bugzilla. +[1834.44 --> 1835.44] Very specific. +[1835.44 --> 1840.44] And not people that were signed up on the Bugzilla forums, not people that were accessing those... +[1840.44 --> 1842.44] Their accounts in that way. +[1842.44 --> 1847.44] Just actual people signed up directly for the test build of Bugzilla. +[1847.44 --> 1848.44] Those are the people that were affected. +[1848.44 --> 1855.44] So I saw a couple people jumping ship off Firefox in the massive browser war that that thread +[1855.44 --> 1858.44] turned into, which it should not have turned into, but internet. +[1858.44 --> 1859.44] So it did. +[1859.44 --> 1864.44] Were jumping ship off Firefox because they were like, oh no, my email is still in. +[1864.44 --> 1865.44] No, dude. +[1865.44 --> 1868.44] Only if you were a Bugzilla pre-release tester. +[1868.44 --> 1873.44] Like not even just someone who used Bugzilla, but someone who was like developer level testing +[1873.44 --> 1874.44] for Bugzilla. +[1874.44 --> 1875.44] Anyways. +[1875.44 --> 1883.44] And no, they did not make the same mistake twice within a month and like make a mistake +[1883.44 --> 1886.44] and then make a mistake again knowing that they made the first one. +[1886.44 --> 1887.44] That's not what happened. +[1887.44 --> 1893.44] They discovered a mistake and then what I'm assuming is they searched for more and then +[1893.44 --> 1896.44] discovered another one that was made previously. +[1896.44 --> 1900.44] Because the second one had been open for I believe three months. +[1900.44 --> 1902.44] So they found two mistakes. +[1902.44 --> 1904.44] They didn't make two mistakes in one month. +[1904.44 --> 1906.44] They were I believe two or three months apart. +[1906.44 --> 1911.44] And like I just said, I'm going to have to assume they found the first one and then +[1911.44 --> 1914.44] were like, oh crap, and started looking around and found the second one. +[1914.44 --> 1918.44] So yeah, tons of misinformation going around about that thread. +[1918.44 --> 1922.44] And then like tons of misinformation for the first about page and maybe a quarter. +[1922.44 --> 1928.44] And then all the rest of it was just this stupid browser war. +[1928.44 --> 1930.44] Because it's the internet. +[1930.44 --> 1931.44] Come on. +[1931.44 --> 1932.44] Yeah, because internet. +[1932.44 --> 1933.44] Yay internet. +[1933.44 --> 1934.44] Yay. +[1934.44 --> 1937.44] My browser takes .00001 seconds less times than yours. +[1937.44 --> 1939.44] And it's already happening in Twitch chat. +[1939.44 --> 1940.44] I use IE. +[1940.44 --> 1942.44] Tor Browser Master Race. +[1942.44 --> 1944.44] No one cares. +[1944.44 --> 1947.44] Chrome is my main driver but it's heavy as hell. +[1947.44 --> 1948.44] That I'm okay. +[1948.44 --> 1949.44] I'm with you on that one. +[1949.44 --> 1951.44] I also daily drive on Chrome. +[1951.44 --> 1952.44] I don't but it is heavy as hell. +[1952.44 --> 1953.44] Oh, it drives me crazy. +[1953.44 --> 1954.44] They all suck. +[1954.44 --> 1955.44] I know. +[1955.44 --> 1957.44] Let's just come together and accept that they're all horrible. +[1957.44 --> 1958.44] Come together. +[1958.44 --> 1959.44] We need slower iteration. +[1959.44 --> 1960.44] Right now. +[1960.44 --> 1962.44] And more solid builds. +[1962.44 --> 1964.44] That's what we need. +[1964.44 --> 1965.44] Okay. +[1965.44 --> 1967.44] So I have a straw poll for you guys. +[1967.44 --> 1970.44] I am not going to be here for WAN Show next week. +[1970.44 --> 1971.44] In like a span of a month. +[1971.44 --> 1972.44] You're not? +[1972.44 --> 1973.44] No. +[1973.44 --> 1975.44] I'm going to be at the event in California. +[1975.44 --> 1976.44] Oh. +[1976.44 --> 1977.44] That's next week? +[1977.44 --> 1979.44] That's not that event in California. +[1979.44 --> 1982.44] We have the event together in California the following week. +[1982.44 --> 1987.44] Yeah, I have no idea how we're going to get content for the channel over the next couple +[1987.44 --> 1988.44] weeks here. +[1988.44 --> 1994.44] So in a span of like four weeks, I think we're doing like five events. +[1994.44 --> 1998.44] So we did PAX. +[1998.44 --> 2000.44] I have a secret one coming up. +[2000.44 --> 2007.44] We're doing the Mod 24 Nvidia thing which there will be more details about revealed tomorrow. +[2007.44 --> 2008.44] Okay. +[2008.44 --> 2009.44] So stay tuned for that. +[2009.44 --> 2012.44] You're going to CTIA. +[2012.44 --> 2014.44] So that's the wireless industry show. +[2014.44 --> 2015.44] Which will be interesting. +[2015.44 --> 2016.44] That's the first time we're doing something like that. +[2016.44 --> 2018.44] And I feel like there's one more I'm missing. +[2018.44 --> 2019.44] Lots of feedback. +[2019.44 --> 2020.44] Germany's coming up. +[2020.44 --> 2021.44] Yep. +[2021.44 --> 2022.44] Germany's coming up. +[2022.44 --> 2023.44] Germany's coming up soon actually. +[2023.44 --> 2024.44] Everest was almost coming up. +[2024.44 --> 2025.44] Can I talk about this? +[2025.44 --> 2026.44] What? +[2026.44 --> 2027.44] I guess so. +[2027.44 --> 2028.44] Germany? +[2028.44 --> 2032.44] So Luke and I are going on a European field trip. +[2032.44 --> 2033.44] So we will be touring. +[2033.44 --> 2034.44] Field trip. +[2034.44 --> 2036.44] Two very cool factories. +[2036.44 --> 2038.44] We should rent a yellow bus. +[2038.44 --> 2039.44] No. +[2039.44 --> 2040.44] It's not in the budget. +[2040.44 --> 2041.44] A really short one. +[2041.44 --> 2043.44] At all. +[2043.44 --> 2046.44] So we are going to be visiting the Cherry factory. +[2046.44 --> 2048.44] You know the guys who make keyboard switches. +[2048.44 --> 2051.44] This is going to be courtesy of Corsair and Cherry. +[2051.44 --> 2056.44] And we are going to be touring the Sennheiser facility as well. +[2056.44 --> 2060.44] And we are potentially going to be getting an interview opportunity with one of the co-founders +[2060.44 --> 2061.44] of Sennheiser. +[2061.44 --> 2066.44] And, and, sorry, one of the co-CEOs, excuse me. +[2066.44 --> 2073.44] And we are potentially going to get an opportunity to interview the guy who does their product +[2073.44 --> 2074.44] development. +[2074.44 --> 2076.44] So the guy who designed the HD8 DJs, for example. +[2076.44 --> 2077.44] I'm sure you'll like to meet him. +[2077.44 --> 2078.44] I'm sure you'll like to meet him. +[2078.44 --> 2082.44] I get to congratulate him out of one side of my mouth for how amazing they sound. +[2082.44 --> 2087.44] And then ask him why the hell there isn't at least like an aftermarket option for increasing +[2087.44 --> 2089.44] the head band padding a little bit. +[2089.44 --> 2092.44] Because after like a couple hours, it starts to wear on me. +[2092.44 --> 2094.44] But I'm just like, oh, but they sound so good. +[2094.44 --> 2095.44] And I'll like take them off. +[2095.44 --> 2098.44] I'll put on something else and be like, oh, screw it. +[2098.44 --> 2099.44] Put them back on. +[2099.44 --> 2103.44] That's why I like my 595 so much. +[2103.44 --> 2106.44] Even though I recommend 555s because you can just do the rubber band hack. +[2106.44 --> 2109.44] But they just feel so comfy. +[2109.44 --> 2111.44] I could literally wear those forever. +[2111.44 --> 2112.44] Yeah. +[2112.44 --> 2113.44] And the HD600s are the same. +[2113.44 --> 2115.44] They sound really great. +[2115.44 --> 2120.44] But they're open, which is a bit of a problem because the volumes I like to listen to sometimes, +[2120.44 --> 2123.44] that can be an issue because the baby is through a wall. +[2123.44 --> 2124.44] I live alone. +[2124.44 --> 2127.44] But probably three feet, four feet from my desk. +[2127.44 --> 2128.44] Right. +[2128.44 --> 2129.44] Very close. +[2129.44 --> 2130.44] Yeah. +[2130.44 --> 2131.44] And she is a very light sleeper. +[2131.44 --> 2132.44] That's danger zone. +[2132.44 --> 2133.44] All right. +[2133.44 --> 2134.44] So anyway, I'm not going to be here next week. +[2134.44 --> 2140.44] So I want you guys to tell me who you want Luke's co-host to be. +[2140.44 --> 2143.44] Some of these people aren't even options and I'm more just curious. +[2143.44 --> 2146.44] It's like a popularity contest and I just want to see who wins. +[2146.44 --> 2147.44] Aren't even options. +[2147.44 --> 2153.44] So the options are Barnacles, Timmy Tech TV, Edsel Taren, and ColdSC, who is Luke's brother. +[2153.44 --> 2154.44] All right. +[2154.44 --> 2155.44] So we'll go ahead and- +[2155.44 --> 2156.44] ColdSC in number two. +[2156.44 --> 2160.44] Throw those results up there while we move on to the next topic. +[2160.44 --> 2161.44] What else we got? +[2161.44 --> 2163.44] I was staring at the results. +[2163.44 --> 2164.44] Of course you were. +[2164.44 --> 2166.44] A bunch of tablet stuff. +[2166.44 --> 2167.44] Yeah. +[2167.44 --> 2168.44] Lenovo launches a tablet. +[2168.44 --> 2169.44] It's $199.99. +[2169.44 --> 2171.44] It's got a 19 by 1200 display. +[2171.44 --> 2175.44] It's got an Atom processor, which is very interesting to me. +[2175.44 --> 2179.44] Asus was showing off some great Atom-powered stuff at CES this year. +[2179.44 --> 2186.44] That it's like, yeah, Snapdragon, whatever, Adreno, GPU, cool. +[2186.44 --> 2192.44] And then there's like Intel's onboard graphics, which might not be that great in a notebook, +[2192.44 --> 2194.44] but you throw that stuff in a tablet. +[2194.44 --> 2195.44] It's like- +[2195.44 --> 2196.44] Freaking awesome. +[2196.44 --> 2197.44] Damn. +[2197.44 --> 2198.44] Um- +[2198.44 --> 2203.44] It also has two gigs of RAM, 16 gigabytes of storage, and- +[2203.44 --> 2205.44] 16 gigs needs to go away now. +[2205.44 --> 2206.44] 16 gigs needs to die. +[2206.44 --> 2207.44] Like now. +[2207.44 --> 2208.44] Why does that still exist? +[2208.44 --> 2213.44] It's one thing if you give me enough storage for all my apps, and I have to put all my +[2213.44 --> 2216.44] other crap on an SD card, or even- +[2216.44 --> 2217.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2217.44 --> 2218.44] Cloud storage. +[2218.44 --> 2219.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2219.44 --> 2220.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2220.44 --> 2221.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2221.44 --> 2223.44] We should- +[2223.44 --> 2224.44] We should not- +[2224.44 --> 2225.44] Hold on, hold on. +[2225.44 --> 2226.44] We need a growling contest. +[2226.44 --> 2227.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2227.44 --> 2228.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2228.44 --> 2229.44] Ehhhhhh... +[2229.44 --> 2230.44] Okay, I can't keep a straight face. +[2230.44 --> 2231.44] I win. +[2231.44 --> 2232.44] Alright, back to the- +[2232.44 --> 2233.44] Back to the results. +[2233.44 --> 2234.44] I don't lose growling. +[2234.44 --> 2235.44] That was probably really bad for my throat. +[2235.44 --> 2236.44] Yeah, probably- +[2236.44 --> 2237.44] Probably shouldn't have done that. +[2237.44 --> 2238.44] Sweet. +[2238.44 --> 2239.44] I egg him on. +[2239.44 --> 2240.44] Alright, it has a 4- +[2240.44 --> 2245.44] 42-90 milliamp hour battery, Bluetooth 4.0, uh, Dolby, whatever, totally worthless, +[2245.44 --> 2247.44] but they're front-facing speakers! +[2247.44 --> 2248.44] Front speakers. +[2248.44 --> 2249.44] That's the important part. +[2249.44 --> 2252.44] Um, 8 megapixel rear camera, 1.6 megapixel front camera. +[2252.44 --> 2255.44] If you're gonna put a 1.6 megapixel camera on something, I'd say don't bother. +[2255.44 --> 2257.44] You know the best part about that growling contest is? +[2257.44 --> 2258.44] Yes. +[2258.44 --> 2259.44] We probably just peaked the whole time. +[2259.44 --> 2260.44] Oh, we totally did. +[2260.44 --> 2261.44] I'm monitoring. +[2261.44 --> 2262.44] Nice. +[2262.44 --> 2263.44] That was great. +[2263.44 --> 2265.44] I think it's a design model available at a higher price and it runs Android 4.4 kitkat. +[2265.44 --> 2269.44] It will also have 64-bit compatibility. +[2269.44 --> 2275.44] And I would encourage you guys, if you aren't already, go subscribe to TechQuickie because +[2275.44 --> 2282.44] we have a once and for all 32-bit versus 64-bit video coming out that I want you guys to watch, +[2282.44 --> 2284.42] and then I want you guys to share. +[2284.82 --> 2286.46] More RAM and Windows, bro. +[2286.90 --> 2289.92] Yeah, because it contains a lot of information that... +[2289.92 --> 2291.60] Actually, it doesn't contain that much information. +[2291.92 --> 2295.92] But it contains information that people need to know, +[2296.14 --> 2298.90] which is that 64-bit is not... +[2298.90 --> 2300.12] I'm not going to spoil it for you guys. +[2300.38 --> 2302.00] All right, so moving on. +[2302.82 --> 2304.92] It looks like Barnacles is out ahead, +[2305.02 --> 2309.08] although ColdSC is actually not that distant a second, +[2309.08 --> 2310.74] which is good because it will probably be ColdSC. +[2312.44 --> 2314.40] It was already kind of a foregone conclusion. +[2314.96 --> 2317.80] I traded him a graphics card for a couple of WAN show appearances, +[2318.06 --> 2319.42] so he's already prepaid. +[2319.66 --> 2320.60] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2321.20 --> 2322.04] Makes sense. +[2322.52 --> 2323.70] All right, so... +[2323.70 --> 2324.48] Oops, wrong window. +[2324.80 --> 2325.70] Another tablet. +[2326.14 --> 2327.16] Yes, yes. +[2327.24 --> 2328.08] Let's talk about that one. +[2328.14 --> 2328.76] Hold on, hold on. +[2328.98 --> 2329.78] Original posters. +[2330.40 --> 2333.96] So Top War Gamer posted the Lenovo 8-inch Android tablet, +[2334.22 --> 2336.66] and Rainfall Within posted the Mozilla story. +[2337.40 --> 2339.36] All right, moving on to the Toshiba one. +[2339.36 --> 2341.10] So that's Top War Gamer again. +[2341.20 --> 2341.52] Hit us. +[2341.62 --> 2342.00] What do we got? +[2342.00 --> 2343.78] It's named the Encore Mini. +[2343.96 --> 2347.32] It has a 7-inch 1024 by 600 screen. +[2349.12 --> 2353.56] It is a $120 Windows 8.1 tablet, though, so I don't know. +[2353.68 --> 2358.78] Yeah, so we're talking like x86 Windows 8.1, so... +[2358.78 --> 2359.08] Yeah. +[2359.08 --> 2363.30] Quad-core Intel Atom processor, 16 gigabytes of internal storage. +[2363.68 --> 2367.18] But it does have an SD slot for expansion, so there we go, +[2367.42 --> 2369.06] because we can do what we were just talking about, +[2369.06 --> 2371.86] which is you can have your OS and your apps and then a whole bunch of files on the side. +[2371.88 --> 2372.94] Your music and your videos. +[2373.08 --> 2376.86] I mean, with microSD capacities up to what, like 128 gigs these days? +[2377.34 --> 2383.36] Like, it's just kind of a joke to be concerned about having to store stuff on microSD, +[2383.50 --> 2386.38] especially if it's stuff like songs or movies or whatever else. +[2386.38 --> 2387.44] Yeah, no big deal. +[2387.88 --> 2392.50] It uses Windows 8.1 with Bing, which is a horrible sentence to say. +[2392.56 --> 2393.12] I know. +[2393.20 --> 2394.30] It's so bad. +[2394.66 --> 2395.42] You know, it's funny. +[2395.52 --> 2400.24] I was playing around with Cortana on my HTC One M8 for Windows review. +[2400.24 --> 2405.24] One thing that I was just kind of like, you know... +[2405.24 --> 2406.14] Bing? +[2406.70 --> 2410.66] Can I just reconfigure this so that when it does do an internet search, +[2410.80 --> 2413.30] it just uses something other than Bing, please? +[2413.92 --> 2414.80] Just anything. +[2415.08 --> 2415.92] Just don't use Bing. +[2416.52 --> 2420.90] Anyways, there's a few drawbacks, like bad viewing angles, no Windows button. +[2421.16 --> 2421.94] That could be a song. +[2421.94 --> 2425.02] Just give me anything. +[2425.62 --> 2426.84] Oh, no, no, no, no, no. +[2426.84 --> 2427.34] But Bing. +[2427.44 --> 2427.98] Yeah, but Bing. +[2428.72 --> 2434.54] Well, I would do anything to search, but I won't Bing that. +[2437.00 --> 2442.92] No, I won't Bing anything for a search. +[2443.06 --> 2444.54] Sorry, I'll let you finish the story now. +[2444.54 --> 2445.34] That was great. +[2445.48 --> 2446.68] That should be our next song. +[2446.80 --> 2447.60] We did the rap. +[2448.08 --> 2449.20] Now we can do like... +[2449.20 --> 2450.52] Anything but Bing's. +[2450.60 --> 2451.16] Anything but that. +[2451.16 --> 2452.76] But remixed. +[2453.72 --> 2454.32] Fantastic. +[2454.86 --> 2457.48] Someone says Bing is literally Google with a skin. +[2457.90 --> 2458.24] No, it's not. +[2458.24 --> 2459.48] I'm sorry, but you're dumb. +[2460.30 --> 2462.56] I don't usually say that kind of stuff. +[2462.88 --> 2463.32] Wow. +[2463.78 --> 2464.64] Oh, my God. +[2464.74 --> 2465.68] But it's like not. +[2466.20 --> 2466.62] Wrecked. +[2466.88 --> 2467.60] Oh, wrecked. +[2468.68 --> 2470.38] Sorry, that was bad. +[2470.92 --> 2473.96] If it was Google with a skin, I might actually use it. +[2474.00 --> 2474.54] No, right? +[2475.00 --> 2476.12] Because it looks all right. +[2476.16 --> 2476.58] It does. +[2476.68 --> 2477.28] It looks good. +[2477.38 --> 2477.78] Okay, sorry. +[2477.86 --> 2478.66] Talk about this tablet. +[2478.66 --> 2479.40] So, yeah. +[2479.40 --> 2481.52] It has drawbacks because it's $120. +[2482.18 --> 2482.38] Yeah. +[2482.38 --> 2483.96] So there's going to be drawbacks. +[2484.18 --> 2488.18] Full Windows isn't necessarily optimal for a 7-inch screen either. +[2488.74 --> 2489.70] What the heck? +[2490.58 --> 2492.02] And it's... +[2492.02 --> 2492.56] I don't know. +[2492.62 --> 2494.60] It's a super, super, super cheap tablet. +[2494.60 --> 2496.06] So it is what it is. +[2496.10 --> 2496.76] Why don't we move on? +[2496.84 --> 2497.06] Yeah. +[2497.14 --> 2498.20] That's pretty much it. +[2498.96 --> 2505.60] More exciting news is that the AMD R9 295X2 is on promotional pricing, which I think means... +[2505.60 --> 2508.56] It's basically AMD code word for... +[2508.56 --> 2509.58] It is now this price. +[2509.62 --> 2511.28] We dropped the price to something more competitive. +[2511.70 --> 2513.44] Don't buy anything other than this price. +[2513.44 --> 2519.66] Also, we're trying to give NVIDIA the business because NVIDIA tried to drop Titan Z down to +[2519.66 --> 2519.80] what? +[2519.86 --> 2520.50] Two grand, I think? +[2520.60 --> 2522.20] To select system builders. +[2522.62 --> 2523.44] And AMD's like... +[2524.04 --> 2528.04] We're going to do $1,000 for ours. +[2528.22 --> 2529.40] We're still half the price. +[2530.50 --> 2532.52] So, yeah. +[2532.72 --> 2535.40] So it's through specific retailers for as low as $1,000. +[2535.72 --> 2537.98] For $1,000, do you think that card makes sense? +[2537.98 --> 2541.28] I don't like Crossfire SLI. +[2541.80 --> 2543.88] And I especially don't like them on the same card. +[2544.96 --> 2546.96] But it is kind of interesting. +[2548.92 --> 2549.60] Alrighty then. +[2550.36 --> 2550.76] Interesting. +[2550.80 --> 2551.10] Okay. +[2551.64 --> 2557.40] At $1,000 though, if you're going for raw FPS, can you come up with a better solution? +[2560.30 --> 2560.98] He's thinking. +[2561.16 --> 2561.28] No. +[2561.28 --> 2561.68] On the top of my head. +[2561.68 --> 2561.94] Yeah. +[2562.20 --> 2562.44] No. +[2562.56 --> 2563.42] The answer is kind of no. +[2563.52 --> 2565.22] Like, you do have to find a spot for the radiator. +[2565.90 --> 2568.38] But at $1,000, what else can you buy? +[2568.68 --> 2570.28] You can pick up two 780s. +[2570.34 --> 2571.80] But those are going to be three gigs. +[2571.94 --> 2573.86] Didn't 290s just get a price drop as well? +[2573.96 --> 2574.56] I think... +[2574.56 --> 2574.98] Yeah. +[2575.12 --> 2579.32] But 295X2 is two fully fledged 290Xs. +[2579.64 --> 2582.20] It is not two 290s. +[2582.60 --> 2586.06] Because due to the water cooling, they were able to make it a fully... +[2586.06 --> 2588.36] So you could do something for the same price. +[2588.64 --> 2589.74] But not necessarily lower. +[2589.74 --> 2590.64] And not even quite... +[2590.64 --> 2590.74] Okay. +[2590.84 --> 2590.96] Yeah. +[2591.02 --> 2591.50] The same price. +[2591.68 --> 2594.88] But that diamond card on Newegg there for $4,89. +[2594.88 --> 2596.20] Is... +[2596.20 --> 2598.92] Those are 290Xs, right? +[2599.00 --> 2599.20] Okay. +[2599.40 --> 2601.32] But that is a dual slot card. +[2602.02 --> 2602.24] Yeah. +[2602.32 --> 2605.46] Whereas a 295X2 is a dual slot card for two GPUs. +[2605.48 --> 2610.62] But we didn't have a limit for slots or like case size or anything. +[2610.68 --> 2612.10] I think I said better solution. +[2612.72 --> 2614.16] But then I said in terms of raw FPS. +[2614.98 --> 2622.20] Mind you, 290Xs, particularly if you crossfire them, unless you have an extremely well ventilated case, +[2622.20 --> 2623.22] could easily throttle. +[2623.58 --> 2626.42] Whereas a 295X2 won't due to the liquid cooler. +[2626.98 --> 2628.82] So in terms of raw FPS, it might still win. +[2628.88 --> 2633.72] And then liquid cooling these would make them better, but would also massively increase the cost. +[2633.86 --> 2634.64] Much more expensive. +[2636.00 --> 2636.40] So... +[2636.40 --> 2637.76] I don't think G10s would be enough. +[2637.76 --> 2638.18] I don't know. +[2638.26 --> 2639.12] Go AMD. +[2639.98 --> 2643.62] That said, that's probably the most exciting thing AMD did this week. +[2643.66 --> 2647.36] And they actually launched a new GPU based on a new microarchitecture. +[2648.36 --> 2648.80] Yikes! +[2648.92 --> 2650.88] Tonga is the least interesting thing ever. +[2650.98 --> 2652.60] I think I pretty much said that in my video. +[2652.70 --> 2653.80] I mean, it's good. +[2653.80 --> 2659.34] It slots in at around the same price point as the card that it replaces that is around the same price. +[2659.48 --> 2661.94] It did exactly what everyone thought it would do. +[2662.04 --> 2662.28] Yes. +[2662.68 --> 2663.98] It's more power efficient. +[2664.24 --> 2665.74] It has better feature support. +[2665.88 --> 2673.00] So you've got FreeSync as well as hardware H.264 4K encoding and decoding. +[2673.00 --> 2677.70] And the like super weird but kind of interesting multi-monitor speaker arrangement setup thing. +[2677.84 --> 2680.58] Yeah, where it like automatically makes it left, right, center channel. +[2680.58 --> 2686.62] If you're using the internal speakers on your monitors for a massively expensive triple setup using a 285. +[2687.00 --> 2687.40] What? +[2689.86 --> 2690.38] Yeah. +[2691.18 --> 2692.58] I read that and I was like... +[2693.46 --> 2704.60] The only big issue I have with it is that they cut the RAM from 3 gigs to 2 gigs in an era where more RAM is becoming more important every day. +[2704.60 --> 2720.52] And when AMD themselves, almost a year ago now in Hawaii, spent so much time talking about how important it was that 290 series had 4 gigs of RAM compared to the competition's lower frame buffer amounts. +[2720.78 --> 2720.90] Yeah. +[2721.04 --> 2727.24] So AMD, guys, you've got to figure out your story here. +[2727.26 --> 2727.92] Fix your naming. +[2728.74 --> 2730.78] Yeah, 285 is kind of brutal. +[2731.64 --> 2732.08] Like... +[2732.08 --> 2732.96] What are you doing? +[2732.96 --> 2734.48] What would you have rather they did? +[2734.58 --> 2735.30] I don't know. +[2735.40 --> 2736.02] Not that. +[2736.14 --> 2739.06] They shouldn't have done the R9, R7 thing in the first place. +[2739.20 --> 2739.60] 282... +[2739.60 --> 2740.12] Yeah, you know what? +[2740.14 --> 2741.50] I actually screwed it up in the video. +[2741.72 --> 2745.02] I called the R7 260X, the R9 260X. +[2745.40 --> 2747.68] And someone called me on it and I was just like, you know what? +[2747.68 --> 2748.08] I don't care. +[2748.60 --> 2749.56] Because that's dumb. +[2749.76 --> 2751.06] It should just be the 260X. +[2751.06 --> 2751.42] You know what? +[2751.50 --> 2752.98] From now on, let's make a pact. +[2753.46 --> 2754.16] Everything's R9? +[2754.46 --> 2755.10] Nothing is R... +[2755.10 --> 2756.20] Or just we don't give the R's? +[2756.24 --> 2756.50] No. +[2756.60 --> 2757.46] There are no R's. +[2757.46 --> 2759.90] See, I did that on one of my graphs and everyone freaked out. +[2760.28 --> 2760.48] Nope. +[2760.60 --> 2760.82] Okay. +[2760.92 --> 2762.36] Well, from now on, that's okay. +[2763.22 --> 2764.48] Should we just do it R? +[2764.72 --> 2764.96] Yeah. +[2764.96 --> 2765.66] Like it used to be? +[2765.70 --> 2766.26] Yeah, let's call it... +[2766.26 --> 2767.06] Like it should have been? +[2767.06 --> 2767.48] We'll just... +[2767.48 --> 2768.56] Like the old code names. +[2768.64 --> 2769.94] Like the R600 code name. +[2770.02 --> 2772.58] We're just going to be like, okay, R260X. +[2773.04 --> 2774.66] And like, GF... +[2774.66 --> 2776.56] No, because I'm okay with NVIDIAs. +[2776.94 --> 2778.48] It's like, GTX is gaming. +[2778.86 --> 2779.14] Okay. +[2779.36 --> 2780.42] So it's just GTX whatever. +[2780.58 --> 2782.02] You don't really have to say GeForce anymore. +[2782.40 --> 2783.20] Just like Radeon. +[2783.32 --> 2785.94] So we'll go R whatever and then GTX whatever. +[2785.94 --> 2788.06] And people will understand and they will like it. +[2788.26 --> 2789.30] Because the R stands for Radeon. +[2789.64 --> 2793.74] Speaking of people liking things, for the number of people who complained about us running +[2793.74 --> 2799.20] overclocked benchmarks on our GPUs, I think that many times several complained about us +[2799.20 --> 2800.40] not running overclocked benchmarks. +[2800.54 --> 2801.86] Goes to show you nobody's ever happy. +[2801.86 --> 2808.62] So I think what we should do is maybe go back to overclocked benchmarks, but with a caveat. +[2809.02 --> 2813.14] So maybe instead of going balls to the wall on the graphics cards, let's do the same thing +[2813.14 --> 2816.26] we do on CPUs, where we aim for that low-hanging fruit number. +[2816.26 --> 2821.08] See, the problem with that, and the reason why we haven't done that in the past, is actually +[2821.08 --> 2825.88] because with CPU launches, it's much more orchestrated. +[2826.40 --> 2828.46] We have more information from more people. +[2828.68 --> 2830.66] With graphics card launches, we're in the black. +[2830.66 --> 2832.12] Okay, another thing though. +[2832.20 --> 2832.98] That's why I have no idea. +[2833.00 --> 2835.42] Actually, this is a new thing that I kind of decided today. +[2835.60 --> 2841.40] I was chatting with Ryan Shrout from PCPerf on Skype, and I was just like, you know what? +[2841.64 --> 2843.12] I don't care about embargoes anymore. +[2843.68 --> 2845.20] We're not going to hit embargoes anymore. +[2846.38 --> 2847.60] We're going to do everything late. +[2848.26 --> 2848.60] Lol. +[2849.70 --> 2854.02] And we're going to try it for a little bit, and some people probably won't like it, but +[2854.02 --> 2855.36] there are a couple of reasons for this. +[2855.36 --> 2861.74] Number one is that we're a YouTube channel first and foremost, and YouTube actually prioritizes +[2861.74 --> 2863.28] newer content and search results. +[2864.48 --> 2869.68] So us being a day or two or even six hours after everyone else has been beneficial for +[2869.68 --> 2870.38] us in the past. +[2870.82 --> 2871.86] Reason number two. +[2872.26 --> 2878.42] Speaking of beneficial for us in the past, we have launched content as much as months late. +[2878.42 --> 2879.54] What about the Noctua cooler? +[2879.62 --> 2881.02] Wasn't that like a year late? +[2881.58 --> 2882.40] Something like that. +[2882.56 --> 2886.50] I mean, the Pebble, the original Pebble, if you look for here. +[2886.70 --> 2887.82] So this is a perfect example. +[2888.16 --> 2889.26] Let's screen share with Linus. +[2889.36 --> 2890.28] I searched for Pebble. +[2890.74 --> 2895.30] My Pebble smartwatch review was months late. +[2895.74 --> 2901.28] Months after everyone else did unveilings and hands-on and full reviews. +[2901.28 --> 2910.52] And yet, 274,000 views, I believe that's the one of the most for any original Pebble review. +[2911.36 --> 2912.80] And I was way late. +[2913.64 --> 2916.42] So the way that I'm kind of looking at it is, you know what? +[2916.50 --> 2918.50] Maybe let's not make it about the product so much. +[2918.54 --> 2924.00] Let's make it more about having great quality content, making sure it's right, and not staying +[2924.00 --> 2928.90] up until four in the morning the night before to finish benchmarking something when we can +[2928.90 --> 2931.38] just release something else that day and do it right. +[2933.22 --> 2933.92] So I don't know. +[2934.10 --> 2935.34] It's not 100%. +[2935.34 --> 2937.22] It's just something I was kind of kicking around. +[2937.26 --> 2941.40] I think it also just kind of depends on what it is and when we get it. +[2941.62 --> 2946.88] Because a lot of times, like with the Extreme Edition, we got the BIOS for that board the +[2946.88 --> 2949.78] day before I had to do all the testing. +[2949.92 --> 2950.66] Like, that's ridiculous. +[2950.84 --> 2951.00] Yeah. +[2951.12 --> 2953.02] I mean, yeah, that's a perfect example. +[2953.78 --> 2954.14] X99. +[2954.52 --> 2954.78] Okay. +[2955.24 --> 2956.58] X99 got pushed up. +[2956.58 --> 2958.50] I think mostly people know this. +[2958.56 --> 2962.42] If you've been following the rumor mill, the rumors changed at some point, which is often +[2962.42 --> 2964.10] an indication that something changed. +[2964.66 --> 2970.80] So we got a finished retail BIOS, which in fairness to ASUS particularly, was not very +[2970.80 --> 2974.62] different from the previous one we had, which wasn't very different from the previous one +[2974.62 --> 2974.90] we had. +[2974.94 --> 2979.80] In fact, I think the only bugs they fixed there were like, if you didn't have a CPU fan installed, +[2980.38 --> 2983.88] the ignore CPU fan speed feature didn't work or something like that. +[2983.88 --> 2985.22] Like, it was minor tweaks. +[2985.48 --> 2989.38] So ASUS actually had their crap together reasonably well. +[2989.72 --> 2994.70] But that doesn't change the fact that we got a new NVIDIA driver optimized for X99, I think, +[2994.82 --> 2996.24] three or four days before launch. +[2996.38 --> 2996.58] Three? +[2997.14 --> 2998.94] Three, and that was over a weekend. +[2999.24 --> 2999.46] Yeah. +[2999.94 --> 3000.26] So... +[3000.26 --> 3001.48] So, like, not very helpful. +[3001.48 --> 3007.20] Yeah, we got a new ASUS BIOS, like, a couple nights before the launch. +[3007.58 --> 3010.62] Like, it was very last minute. +[3011.04 --> 3011.60] And you know what? +[3011.64 --> 3016.44] No one seems to have minded that our 5960X video went up on the Tuesday. +[3018.36 --> 3018.84] Yeah. +[3020.18 --> 3021.10] So there you go. +[3021.10 --> 3025.20] Apparently we only need 11,000 more subscribers to get to a million. +[3025.62 --> 3026.54] That's pretty insane. +[3026.84 --> 3027.04] Yeah. +[3027.70 --> 3031.98] People want us to discuss PewDiePie's disabling of comments. +[3032.40 --> 3035.48] So this was originally posted by OnoTech on the forum. +[3035.54 --> 3040.88] And I actually went ahead and I posted on Facebook asking what people thought, whether we should +[3040.88 --> 3041.76] do the same thing. +[3042.16 --> 3044.64] And there were some really interesting thoughts there. +[3044.74 --> 3046.98] But I'll let you kind of cover exactly what happened here. +[3047.06 --> 3048.38] Original article here is from Kotaku. +[3048.38 --> 3049.02] Here it is. +[3049.08 --> 3052.74] One thing I want to talk about before I even get into this is I've talked about PewDiePie +[3052.74 --> 3054.58] on the show before and about how I don't... +[3054.58 --> 3055.98] I think I've used the wrong terminology. +[3056.12 --> 3057.30] I probably said I don't like him. +[3057.58 --> 3060.88] I don't like the character he portrays in most of his videos. +[3061.34 --> 3065.06] After watching this, I went through and watched, like, a couple other videos that he's done. +[3065.82 --> 3067.86] Like, you brought up the... +[3067.86 --> 3068.36] What is it? +[3068.38 --> 3069.30] The Fine Brothers... +[3069.30 --> 3070.26] Yeah, YouTubers React. +[3070.52 --> 3071.66] He's a lot more sane. +[3071.80 --> 3075.52] I ended up looking that up and I watched this video and stuff and, like, seems like a pretty +[3075.52 --> 3076.10] smart dude. +[3076.30 --> 3077.36] No problem with that. +[3077.36 --> 3079.18] I'm just not interested in his content. +[3079.48 --> 3080.46] So, anyways. +[3080.84 --> 3083.50] He has decided to disable comments forever. +[3083.72 --> 3083.94] Forever. +[3084.06 --> 3089.38] This has been because he is sick of seeing mainly spam, people self-advertising, and people +[3089.38 --> 3095.06] trying to provoke others, and all the other people responding to those things. +[3095.18 --> 3097.18] Making them go to the top and making them very... +[3097.18 --> 3099.40] The main things that people are actually looking at. +[3099.48 --> 3101.76] Especially with YouTube's new style of comments. +[3102.00 --> 3103.60] Yeah, and you know, it's always been a problem. +[3103.60 --> 3105.50] New comment system, old comment system. +[3105.50 --> 3110.50] As you get bigger and bigger, the signal-to-noise ratio in the comments goes down. +[3110.90 --> 3118.02] And no offense to Felix, but something about his style of content, I think, attracts a less +[3118.02 --> 3119.32] sophisticated commenter. +[3119.66 --> 3119.84] Yeah. +[3120.30 --> 3122.58] Which is, again, one of the reasons why I don't like his... +[3122.58 --> 3122.98] Okay. +[3122.98 --> 3125.56] Go ahead with the rest of the story, and then I'll talk about sort of some of my thoughts +[3125.56 --> 3126.08] on it as well. +[3127.58 --> 3132.02] The main issue is that most of the positive feedback, or even, like, constructive negative +[3132.02 --> 3137.10] feedback, and welcome suggestions, and all that kind of stuff, are buried under all this +[3137.10 --> 3140.84] what is essentially junk crap that gets in a lot of the videos. +[3140.96 --> 3141.08] Yeah. +[3141.08 --> 3145.20] And he has said, I just want to connect with you bros, which is currently... +[3145.20 --> 3146.00] That was a quote. +[3146.18 --> 3150.46] Which is currently impossible, essentially, because it's just buried under all this stuff, +[3150.50 --> 3152.90] and you have to imagine how many comments he gets in all of his videos. +[3153.72 --> 3156.50] He's not going to be able to read every single one of them. +[3156.52 --> 3159.14] I don't think he could actually read that fast, at his scale. +[3159.20 --> 3160.02] I don't know if it's possible. +[3160.74 --> 3163.28] Like, yeah, he'd have to have a team of people, and that's insane. +[3163.82 --> 3164.50] He could afford it. +[3165.12 --> 3166.54] He could probably afford it. +[3166.54 --> 3169.26] I have a team of people, and I'm, like, a fraction of his size. +[3169.28 --> 3170.02] Just to read comments, though? +[3170.02 --> 3170.72] Just to... +[3170.72 --> 3172.44] Well, I wouldn't spend my money on that. +[3172.44 --> 3176.84] You'd have to have a whole department of people just to sit in a room and read YouTube comments, +[3177.00 --> 3180.06] and, like, collate all the important ones, and hand you a package. +[3180.06 --> 3183.46] Even if I was making $4 million a year, I don't think I would spend it on that. +[3183.60 --> 3184.26] So stupid. +[3184.76 --> 3189.48] Anyways, so he's decided to try and move to things like maybe direct Twitter interaction, +[3189.76 --> 3194.16] Twitter hashtags, that he can hashtag a certain video, and you can look up that hashtag +[3194.16 --> 3195.76] to see what people think about that certain video. +[3195.96 --> 3196.36] Subreddit. +[3196.36 --> 3197.90] Or a subreddit, or something like that. +[3197.98 --> 3201.18] Things that people like TotalBiscuit have already been doing. +[3201.42 --> 3206.80] Pewds isn't going to watch this, but if he did, I would suggest that maybe it's time +[3206.80 --> 3212.26] to not necessarily be so married to being a one-man operation, and invest in something +[3212.26 --> 3213.26] like building a community. +[3213.66 --> 3215.36] The LinusTechTips.com forum is... +[3216.12 --> 3216.50] Is awesome. +[3216.74 --> 3217.16] Awesome. +[3217.36 --> 3220.86] That's why I always have the call to action to, if you don't want to post on YouTube, +[3221.30 --> 3225.52] post on the forum, because I always read every single comment on every single video that +[3225.52 --> 3228.08] I make that is on the forum thread for that video. +[3228.20 --> 3229.72] I read all of them, hands down. +[3229.98 --> 3236.02] And so that's what I would encourage him to do, because there you can actually foster the +[3236.02 --> 3238.62] kind of attitude and the kind of community that you want. +[3238.66 --> 3239.24] I mean, mostly. +[3239.40 --> 3243.04] Once it reaches a certain tipping point, there's only so much you can do. +[3243.20 --> 3243.34] But at least... +[3243.34 --> 3247.54] But it's usually more refined, because it takes that extra step. +[3247.72 --> 3247.90] Yes. +[3248.26 --> 3253.32] And having your own community is so much more of a powerful way to connect with people, +[3253.38 --> 3255.12] and have them connect with each other. +[3255.48 --> 3259.88] I think that's the thing that's missing in a lot of social networks, is the connection +[3259.88 --> 3262.54] between bros, so to speak. +[3262.58 --> 3262.76] Yeah. +[3262.76 --> 3265.44] As opposed to between PewDiePie and all the bros. +[3265.54 --> 3270.76] So I would really encourage him to allocate some of his four million a year to someone +[3270.76 --> 3273.42] to build a community forum and do community management. +[3273.48 --> 3274.84] You'd probably get a pretty cool server. +[3275.24 --> 3276.28] Probably better than ours. +[3276.46 --> 3277.62] Yeah, probably better than ours. +[3278.58 --> 3279.16] All right. +[3279.32 --> 3279.66] So... +[3279.66 --> 3279.88] Oh, right. +[3279.90 --> 3280.88] I wanted to give some of my thoughts. +[3280.98 --> 3285.82] So I went ahead and I posted on Facebook asking people for their thoughts. +[3285.88 --> 3288.24] And I read most of what came in in the first half an hour or so. +[3288.24 --> 3290.82] And I had a lot of people saying, yes, it's a cesspool. +[3291.22 --> 3294.16] And I had a lot of people saying, no, it's not. +[3294.46 --> 3298.52] You know, with some people even going as far as to say, I'll unsubscribe if you disable +[3298.52 --> 3302.16] comments, which I think is ridiculous, because it's not... +[3302.16 --> 3308.36] YouTube is a video watching site first, and a commenting on the video site, like, sixth. +[3308.62 --> 3310.86] There's a lot more stuff that you can do on YouTube. +[3310.86 --> 3316.46] I actually find that I watch more of TotalBiscuit's videos now that he doesn't have comments than +[3316.46 --> 3317.32] I did in the past. +[3317.32 --> 3318.32] So anyway... +[3318.32 --> 3319.40] It might sound weird, but it just... +[3319.40 --> 3320.30] It's... +[3320.30 --> 3323.36] Even though I wouldn't really read them that much, and even though I'd only really get +[3323.36 --> 3327.34] the top comments, his videos seem less aggressive. +[3327.54 --> 3327.68] Right. +[3327.68 --> 3330.60] Not because he's doing it, but because, like, the overall experience. +[3330.66 --> 3331.04] The environment. +[3331.24 --> 3331.46] Yeah. +[3331.70 --> 3332.90] Yeah, it's totally about that. +[3333.18 --> 3334.82] And I guess that's what got me thinking. +[3334.94 --> 3338.60] So I had a lot of people saying, no, don't do it, because, you know, sometimes I post questions +[3338.60 --> 3340.26] in your comments and I actually get an answer. +[3340.40 --> 3341.60] And it really made me think. +[3341.62 --> 3343.58] And I was also on the PKA podcast last night. +[3343.58 --> 3348.08] We were talking a little bit about poison within the community and how to manage it. +[3348.36 --> 3349.62] And I kind of realized, you know what? +[3349.66 --> 3351.96] Our audience is pretty damn mature. +[3352.08 --> 3355.94] I was just going to say, I think a big part of it is that we're not a Let's Play channel. +[3356.12 --> 3357.34] We're not a Let's Play channel. +[3357.50 --> 3358.58] We're not a... +[3358.58 --> 3362.24] You know, I don't want to pick on anyone in particular, but we're not like, okay, I'm +[3362.24 --> 3363.26] just not going to pick on anyone. +[3363.54 --> 3371.28] But the point is, our type of content is only really interesting to people who are somewhat +[3371.28 --> 3372.64] technology literate. +[3372.92 --> 3373.00] Yeah. +[3373.00 --> 3376.36] Which I think is going to mean you somewhat know how to use the internet. +[3376.60 --> 3376.86] You're somewhat literate. +[3376.86 --> 3379.88] Which, of course, means we have more Adblock users and all that stuff. +[3380.02 --> 3384.20] But, you know, if someone was to go, okay, well, Linus, what would you rather have? +[3384.20 --> 3389.74] Would you rather have users that use Adblock and, you know, that couple of pennies or whatever +[3389.74 --> 3394.88] per view doesn't get contributed to you, but they don't poison your community? +[3395.98 --> 3399.90] Or would you rather have these poisonous people that are giving you a couple pennies? +[3400.30 --> 3405.04] I will take the mature community every time because at least those people I can reason +[3405.04 --> 3408.40] with, you know, with the relationship we have with them over the years and maybe go, +[3408.50 --> 3412.38] okay, well, hey, maybe you turn on Adblock, but would you consider buying a cool t-shirt +[3412.38 --> 3413.10] once in a while? +[3413.10 --> 3419.06] And that's, yeah, we've found a way that, at least I personally think the mass majority +[3419.06 --> 3422.64] of our community is cool with us monetizing different things. +[3423.20 --> 3426.90] And I think one of the big problems that I've seen a lot of the Adblock guys talk about +[3426.90 --> 3431.14] is they don't want to see, they don't necessarily mind advertisement. +[3431.36 --> 3435.24] They don't want to see most of the crap that ends up getting in their advertisement feed. +[3435.74 --> 3438.64] I don't think advertisement in general is necessarily evil. +[3439.36 --> 3441.40] It's just, well, yeah. +[3441.40 --> 3449.06] No, because if you have a legitimately good service at a legitimately fair price, I appreciate +[3449.06 --> 3450.88] someone taking the time to tell me about it. +[3450.94 --> 3453.44] So I think it helps that we kind of act as a filter. +[3454.00 --> 3457.72] Speaking of filters and advertising, we've actually got our sponsor segment coming up. +[3457.84 --> 3460.08] So first up is, and I love this. +[3460.18 --> 3461.24] I love it when this happens. +[3461.36 --> 3464.38] You know what I think I'm always wearing my Squarespace shirt? +[3464.38 --> 3466.20] Because you always wear your Squarespace shirt. +[3466.20 --> 3466.28] Okay. +[3466.62 --> 3467.64] Well, I have two of them. +[3467.98 --> 3473.90] So I usually wear a Squarespace shirt twice a week in between laundry cycles because they're +[3473.90 --> 3476.10] American apparel and they're so soft and they're so nice. +[3476.66 --> 3477.84] So there's that. +[3477.96 --> 3481.86] So if other sponsors are watching this right now, that's the way to get Linus to pimp your +[3481.86 --> 3482.16] crap. +[3482.40 --> 3483.22] It's that simple. +[3483.54 --> 3485.90] Send them like super nice American apparel shirts. +[3486.04 --> 3487.38] Send them like some bamboo shirts. +[3487.38 --> 3494.18] And on Fridays, I'm usually like my most tired because it's been a long week and it's like, +[3494.68 --> 3495.18] you know what? +[3495.46 --> 3498.30] I don't care if I'm like being a poster boy for Squarespace. +[3498.88 --> 3500.64] I'm gonna put my comfy shirt on. +[3501.96 --> 3503.72] I want a comfy Squarespace shirt. +[3503.96 --> 3504.58] Yeah, too bad. +[3504.84 --> 3507.10] I just have this like shirt that I got from PAX. +[3507.18 --> 3508.34] Did I tell you about how I got this? +[3508.50 --> 3508.72] No. +[3508.82 --> 3513.84] I'll tell you the biggest like PAX hack after the sponsor. +[3513.84 --> 3514.12] Okay. +[3514.12 --> 3519.84] So Squarespace, if you guys aren't familiar already, is the fast, easy way to make your +[3519.84 --> 3520.92] own beautiful website. +[3521.04 --> 3521.90] Did I mention affordable? +[3522.08 --> 3527.10] You can save 10% by visiting squarespace.com slash Linus and using offer code Linus. +[3527.46 --> 3532.82] And it really is, out of everything I've tried anyway, which is a safe statement for me to +[3532.82 --> 3536.90] make because I haven't tried to build too many websites, but it is definitely the easiest +[3536.90 --> 3541.12] way to build a website that's functional and looks great. +[3541.26 --> 3542.62] It looks good on your notebook. +[3542.62 --> 3543.72] It looks good on a desktop. +[3543.72 --> 3545.40] It looks good even on mobile. +[3545.40 --> 3550.18] And it's going to be snappy and responsive because they take care of the actual hosting +[3550.18 --> 3554.94] of the website with a flexible plan that you can go ahead and negotiate with them according +[3554.94 --> 3557.26] to the different tiers, depending on what you need. +[3557.40 --> 3558.84] It's also incredibly scalable. +[3559.38 --> 3566.06] And you can go from three people a week are visiting my website about my cats to I'm selling +[3566.06 --> 3569.48] pet accessories and I'm getting thousands of hits a week. +[3569.48 --> 3574.44] And people are flooding my site because you can turn Squarespace into a full-fledged e-commerce +[3574.44 --> 3576.76] site with the built-in tools. +[3576.94 --> 3581.42] It's got an easy logo designer, which saves you a little bit of either hassle or expense +[3581.42 --> 3582.54] when you're first starting up. +[3582.90 --> 3585.30] And it's just super easy to use. +[3585.42 --> 3586.88] Also, they happen to be awesome dudes. +[3586.88 --> 3588.34] So, there we go. +[3588.56 --> 3589.34] We like Squarespace. +[3589.56 --> 3591.02] We like the people who work there. +[3591.22 --> 3592.98] And we like that they support the WAN show. +[3593.10 --> 3595.44] And you guys should probably like that they support the WAN show too. +[3595.60 --> 3601.42] Because if it wasn't for sponsors like Squarespace, it would be pretty hard for us to do the things +[3601.42 --> 3601.88] that we do. +[3601.88 --> 3605.02] And speaking of other sponsors, Dollar Shave Club. +[3605.56 --> 3606.52] What's Dollar Shave Club? +[3606.66 --> 3607.76] Pretty darn straightforward. +[3608.98 --> 3609.58] Dollar. +[3610.28 --> 3612.20] So, symbolic of money. +[3613.00 --> 3613.48] Shave. +[3613.94 --> 3615.94] So, symbolic of saving money. +[3616.34 --> 3617.96] And club, which is sandwiches. +[3618.50 --> 3621.58] So, it's all about saving money on sandwiches. +[3621.84 --> 3623.02] DollarShaveClub.com. +[3623.06 --> 3623.90] No, I'm totally kidding. +[3624.00 --> 3625.38] It's saving money so you can buy sandwiches. +[3625.40 --> 3625.90] Saving money. +[3625.96 --> 3626.44] Yes. +[3626.44 --> 3633.66] Dollar Shave Club is all about buying yourself one additional sandwich per month. +[3633.78 --> 3640.46] So, you save money by shaving, which helps you acquire female attention. +[3640.82 --> 3645.12] Which then you can buy stuff so that they can make you sandwiches. +[3645.54 --> 3648.52] So, not only does Dollar Shave Club hopefully help you get into a relationship. +[3648.56 --> 3649.12] You know, we were trying to. +[3649.12 --> 3650.34] Because you are now clean shaven. +[3650.96 --> 3652.44] Earlier in this very show. +[3652.54 --> 3653.64] But if you can't cook. +[3653.64 --> 3657.30] We were trying to be progressive about treatment of the opposite sex. +[3657.44 --> 3658.58] And then you're going to go and turn. +[3658.68 --> 3660.00] Why are you bringing this into a sex thing? +[3660.08 --> 3660.90] It could be a girl. +[3661.38 --> 3661.78] Sponsored. +[3661.94 --> 3663.86] Why could a girl not buy Dollar Shave Club supplies? +[3666.84 --> 3667.64] Hashtag get wrecked. +[3671.10 --> 3671.42] Okay. +[3673.80 --> 3674.12] Technically. +[3676.12 --> 3677.02] Strictly speaking. +[3677.38 --> 3682.72] Although Dollar Shave Club does aim most of their marketing at men. +[3682.72 --> 3689.08] Women get sold a lot of stupid gimmicks when it comes to shaving supplies too. +[3689.84 --> 3691.38] And maybe that's it. +[3691.66 --> 3694.48] Maybe all of you guys are already signed up for Dollar Shave Club. +[3694.60 --> 3695.56] At dollarshaveclub.com. +[3695.64 --> 3703.44] But maybe you know some female friends who could benefit from, you know, a quad blade or even six blade executive razor. +[3703.52 --> 3703.96] You know what? +[3704.18 --> 3705.34] They call it the executive. +[3705.70 --> 3706.38] You can be a female executive. +[3706.38 --> 3706.78] Damn it. +[3706.96 --> 3707.86] It's 2014. +[3708.46 --> 3710.02] We have female executives. +[3710.10 --> 3710.50] Exactly. +[3710.50 --> 3714.92] Tell Marissa Myers that she can't have an executive razor. +[3715.14 --> 3715.46] And you know what? +[3715.50 --> 3716.46] I can cook pretty well. +[3717.34 --> 3717.58] All right. +[3717.58 --> 3719.84] And I know there's probably some dudes in the audience that could cook pretty well. +[3719.84 --> 3720.68] So there you go, guys. +[3720.82 --> 3724.82] Dollar Shave Club ships you high quality razors and other bathroom supplies, including their +[3724.82 --> 3727.26] one-wipe Charlie's butt wipes for men or women. +[3727.26 --> 3734.58] As well as their aftershave and their shave butter, which goes on clear so you can see what you're doing. +[3734.78 --> 3737.72] Twice as important when you're shaving a particularly tender area. +[3738.10 --> 3739.80] So dollarshaveclub.com slash Linus. +[3739.84 --> 3740.56] Guys, check it out now. +[3740.64 --> 3741.18] Join the club. +[3741.26 --> 3744.30] Start shaving time and shaving money. +[3744.30 --> 3744.78] Okay. +[3744.78 --> 3745.10] Okay. +[3745.22 --> 3746.14] So how to get... +[3746.14 --> 3747.14] That was hilarious. +[3747.22 --> 3748.02] How to get that shirt? +[3748.10 --> 3752.70] How to get this shirt and like a whole ton of extra shirts when you go to different gaming +[3752.70 --> 3753.12] conventions. +[3753.56 --> 3758.26] A lot of what they try to get you to do to get the free shirt, which is not free at all, +[3758.48 --> 3759.42] is pre-order their game. +[3760.26 --> 3761.62] Pre-ordering games is... +[3761.62 --> 3762.14] Not free. +[3762.64 --> 3765.62] ...bull crap and is not free at all and is super stupid. +[3766.08 --> 3770.68] So what you do is you go up to their booth and you pre-order everything you can so that +[3770.68 --> 3773.12] you can get all their swag, but you do it on Amazon. +[3773.12 --> 3775.10] Oh, you're not really telling people this, are you? +[3775.10 --> 3775.92] I'm telling people this because... +[3775.92 --> 3777.62] You're going to wreck the system for yourself. +[3777.94 --> 3779.24] Actually, they'll never catch on, will they? +[3779.28 --> 3780.04] No, it doesn't matter. +[3780.16 --> 3781.20] They're so oblivious. +[3781.32 --> 3781.56] All right. +[3781.60 --> 3781.82] Do it. +[3781.86 --> 3782.06] Do it. +[3782.10 --> 3782.20] Do it. +[3782.20 --> 3782.72] Tons of people. +[3782.80 --> 3785.24] And like, you probably already know about this, but just... +[3785.24 --> 3786.50] This is for the people that don't. +[3786.58 --> 3786.84] Okay? +[3787.14 --> 3788.88] Because there's probably people out there that don't. +[3788.96 --> 3789.92] Emo Polar Bear says, +[3790.00 --> 3793.28] My girlfriend prefers my Dollar Shave Club razors to her women's razors. +[3793.46 --> 3794.92] There you go, guys. +[3794.92 --> 3795.40] This... +[3795.40 --> 3799.06] And Dollar Shave Club, if you're still watching, you guys need to get a lady razor going. +[3799.16 --> 3799.60] Anyway, sorry. +[3799.60 --> 3799.86] Go on. +[3800.90 --> 3801.12] Yeah. +[3801.24 --> 3805.26] So what you do is you go up to the booth and you pre-order everything so you get all their +[3805.26 --> 3807.66] extra little things and their swag, like shirts and stuff. +[3807.94 --> 3811.44] And then you do it on Amazon because Amazon does not charge you until they ship. +[3812.54 --> 3816.58] So then you just go back to your computer or go on your phone or whatever. +[3816.78 --> 3817.82] Go to your Amazon account. +[3818.54 --> 3819.38] Recent orders. +[3820.00 --> 3820.44] Cancel. +[3820.86 --> 3821.26] Done. +[3821.26 --> 3823.42] You get all the swag for free. +[3823.42 --> 3825.84] It took you like two extra seconds and you're done. +[3826.04 --> 3827.80] So I got all the Ubisoft shirts. +[3828.84 --> 3829.40] All of them. +[3829.62 --> 3831.82] And like all the other shirts there that required a pre-order. +[3831.94 --> 3833.88] Because I was just like, oh, I need to pre-order the game? +[3834.02 --> 3834.30] Sure. +[3834.52 --> 3834.78] Cool. +[3834.92 --> 3835.12] Done. +[3835.12 --> 3840.36] People say you guys need to have an option to accept tips in your video descriptions. +[3841.24 --> 3842.10] We have. +[3842.16 --> 3842.92] We have that. +[3843.06 --> 3845.30] We have our monthly contributor thing. +[3845.68 --> 3846.74] Or you can buy a t-shirt. +[3847.16 --> 3850.74] Or you can just change your Amazon bookmark to one with our affiliate code. +[3850.74 --> 3851.52] Which is also awesome. +[3851.52 --> 3854.74] Instructions to how to do that linked in every one of our video descriptions. +[3855.02 --> 3856.40] That helps us out a lot. +[3856.56 --> 3863.58] I mean, between us girls, Amazon affiliate revenue has become a way for me to continue expanding the team. +[3863.68 --> 3865.88] Like it's turned into not just a couple bucks here and there. +[3865.88 --> 3868.56] So you guys have been amazingly supportive. +[3869.10 --> 3871.46] But, I mean, more is always better. +[3871.56 --> 3875.88] Because as much as we just hired someone, I would like to add more. +[3876.04 --> 3879.80] Because, I mean, Luke's going to be out of the office for a week out of the next two weeks. +[3880.02 --> 3882.94] You know, traveling to shows and doing show coverage and stuff like that. +[3883.00 --> 3883.60] We're going to need. +[3884.16 --> 3886.80] We're going to be out for at least two days. +[3886.94 --> 3887.40] How many? +[3887.68 --> 3888.28] Three, I think. +[3888.30 --> 3888.38] Three? +[3888.52 --> 3889.02] Three, yeah. +[3889.22 --> 3889.42] No. +[3889.60 --> 3890.78] No, I'm out for five too. +[3891.02 --> 3892.30] Because I'm doing two events too. +[3892.40 --> 3893.62] How are we going to do anything? +[3893.68 --> 3894.06] I don't know. +[3894.12 --> 3894.66] We'll figure it out. +[3894.66 --> 3897.32] But the point is, I hired him because I needed help. +[3897.38 --> 3898.76] We're getting to the point where Luke needs help. +[3898.86 --> 3909.30] So if you guys, like, encourage people you know or ask permission and then change people's browser bookmarks to Amazon to ones with our affiliate code, every little bit helps. +[3909.38 --> 3911.66] Especially people you know who shop on Amazon a lot. +[3911.76 --> 3914.80] We need to find a way that we can have it as an auto-executable off a flash drive. +[3914.88 --> 3916.58] Yeah, there's also a browser toolbar. +[3916.82 --> 3918.00] Oh, actually, that would be brilliant. +[3918.42 --> 3920.96] No, that's, like, I'm not doing that. +[3920.96 --> 3924.70] Um, so, you're a terrible person. +[3926.06 --> 3927.64] Actually, that's kind of smart. +[3928.12 --> 3935.74] What if we had Linus Tech Tips branded USB drives that basically, um, we sold, like, at a loss. +[3935.74 --> 3938.20] So people could buy USB drives from us on the cheap. +[3938.34 --> 3940.12] But that had that preloaded. +[3940.16 --> 3941.72] But in a very upfront way. +[3941.72 --> 3944.14] So the idea was, hey, you're buying this USB drive. +[3944.26 --> 3949.24] This USB drive is designed to override your Amazon affiliate links when you plug it in. +[3949.36 --> 3952.30] We could just give them, like, a loader that loads it onto the... +[3952.30 --> 3953.88] People want a donate button on Twitch. +[3954.38 --> 3954.82] Why? +[3955.20 --> 3959.44] We should just put a button on Twitch that links them to the store on the forum where they can become a... +[3959.44 --> 3959.82] Yeah. +[3960.26 --> 3960.82] We should just... +[3960.82 --> 3963.34] We should actually have just a description on our Twitch page. +[3963.38 --> 3963.98] I love Twitch. +[3964.10 --> 3964.54] They're my friends. +[3964.54 --> 3965.22] Links to shirts and stuff. +[3965.22 --> 3967.58] But they don't need half of the monthly donation. +[3968.40 --> 3968.64] Yeah. +[3968.64 --> 3969.88] So... +[3969.88 --> 3970.68] But that is what... +[3970.68 --> 3972.40] I don't think they're asking for a sub button. +[3972.56 --> 3972.74] Yeah. +[3972.80 --> 3973.90] They're asking for a donation button. +[3974.14 --> 3975.58] So if we had, like, links... +[3975.58 --> 3976.24] Yeah, those are different. +[3976.42 --> 3978.02] A sub button is a Twitch subscription. +[3978.30 --> 3984.52] Because, like, my personal channel has a sub thing and it has a donation thing and it has a donate to Child's Play thing. +[3984.70 --> 3985.12] Oh, okay. +[3985.48 --> 3985.72] Yeah. +[3986.30 --> 3988.44] Speaking of which, I have to do the ALS donation. +[3989.00 --> 3989.84] I haven't done that yet. +[3990.18 --> 3991.12] I did my MS one. +[3991.36 --> 3991.90] Oh, crap. +[3991.90 --> 3992.38] Okay, yeah. +[3992.52 --> 3995.20] I committed 500 and then Fractal's gonna match it. +[3995.32 --> 3996.26] So, crap. +[3996.40 --> 3997.20] I'll do that this weekend. +[3997.46 --> 3997.64] Cool. +[3997.64 --> 3999.46] All right, so let's move on to our next topic. +[3999.56 --> 4000.20] This is just... +[4000.20 --> 4001.24] This is something pretty quick. +[4001.36 --> 4006.68] But the ASRock X99 Extreme 11 features 18 SATA 6 gigabit per second ports. +[4006.80 --> 4009.62] This was originally posted by TopPix on the forum. +[4010.10 --> 4015.28] And I think rather than talking about this a whole lot, we're just gonna let pictures do the talking. +[4016.14 --> 4018.48] Did you see the super scary thing, though? +[4018.54 --> 4019.04] Yeah, right there. +[4019.72 --> 4020.54] Super scary. +[4020.54 --> 4026.66] I've seen ASRock motherboards with chipset fans before that don't turn on unless you enable them. +[4026.76 --> 4032.00] So I'm not sure if they have that here, but one of their previous Extreme 11 boards was like that. +[4032.18 --> 4036.14] The problem is that it ran so hot that you had to enable the fan on that particular model. +[4036.68 --> 4037.58] Look at this, though. +[4037.80 --> 4039.30] That's ridiculous. +[4039.52 --> 4040.68] Two USB 3 headers. +[4041.28 --> 4042.58] Just because whatever. +[4042.58 --> 4043.80] Because why not? +[4045.20 --> 4046.96] Should we give ASRock a chance? +[4047.44 --> 4051.48] Is ASRock participating in our four-way motherboard ease-of-use shootout? +[4052.16 --> 4053.18] I think they did, didn't they? +[4053.20 --> 4053.94] I found a board for it. +[4054.04 --> 4054.74] Yeah, we have a board. +[4054.74 --> 4059.70] So let's give ASRock a chance to win us over. +[4059.88 --> 4063.20] Because the last time I really tried to use an ASRock board... +[4063.20 --> 4066.20] It was back in the Blue Room days at NCX, I think. +[4066.24 --> 4066.44] Yep. +[4066.64 --> 4072.12] And the last time I put an ASRock board in my own system was a 939 Dual. +[4072.40 --> 4072.66] Oh. +[4074.34 --> 4078.24] That was like Optron 165 Dual Core days. +[4078.24 --> 4078.64] Hmm. +[4079.24 --> 4079.56] Alright. +[4080.18 --> 4085.04] Steam Client Beta Update brings better streaming support overall, especially to AMD cards. +[4085.54 --> 4088.92] This was originally posted on the forum by Welcome. +[4089.82 --> 4091.04] So you want to cover this one? +[4091.88 --> 4092.44] Yeah. +[4092.74 --> 4094.46] There's a few things, actually. +[4094.58 --> 4099.48] They're also doing tweaks to stream Steam Music, where it can find music inside Steam directories. +[4099.60 --> 4101.56] That probably should have been there by default, guys. +[4101.82 --> 4106.08] Because you can kind of buy soundtracks with games, and it wasn't automatically picking them up, +[4106.10 --> 4107.08] and that's super stupid. +[4107.08 --> 4109.08] But it can now, which is great. +[4109.20 --> 4110.24] There's UI improvements. +[4110.42 --> 4112.54] They're reducing energy usage when it's running in the background. +[4112.98 --> 4115.16] But it just kind of generally supports... +[4115.16 --> 4119.96] They're saying in-home streaming support now available for AMD cards. +[4121.40 --> 4121.84] Cool. +[4121.86 --> 4122.92] That's a note in here. +[4123.00 --> 4125.14] I didn't know that it wasn't available before. +[4125.48 --> 4127.34] I think it wasn't optimized. +[4127.56 --> 4135.14] Because the thing is, for every encode and decode combination, they have to make sure it all works. +[4135.14 --> 4142.80] And with all the different hardware encoders and decoders that are out there, there's a lot of optimization for Valve to do. +[4143.48 --> 4147.42] For what was, at least the last time I talked to them, basically a one-man army team. +[4147.94 --> 4148.74] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4148.84 --> 4149.34] So there you go. +[4149.34 --> 4155.22] You can now stream from Linux, from a Linux host to PCs now, which is interesting. +[4155.62 --> 4166.18] And you can use VCE hardware encoding of direct 3D games now if you have a Radeon 77XX, whatever numbers those are at the end. +[4166.76 --> 4169.94] Or a R9 200 series above the 240. +[4170.16 --> 4170.76] Above 240. +[4170.76 --> 4171.40] Okay. +[4171.64 --> 4172.08] Cool. +[4172.50 --> 4173.72] Well, that'll just keep getting better. +[4173.92 --> 4178.14] And then when we get an Android Steam client, then everything else will be irrelevant. +[4178.56 --> 4178.74] Yeah. +[4179.34 --> 4179.84] All right. +[4179.88 --> 4186.20] So this is something that, if you've been following me for a long time, then you might know about this already. +[4186.34 --> 4187.92] What the bloody heck was that? +[4188.00 --> 4190.08] Magma PCI something. +[4190.26 --> 4190.58] Oh, yeah. +[4190.58 --> 4195.90] So I did a video of this bad boy quite a while back. +[4196.04 --> 4196.76] Oh, come on. +[4197.12 --> 4197.80] There it is. +[4198.14 --> 4201.04] Magma Express Box 3T. +[4201.18 --> 4203.76] Thunderbolt External PCI Express Enclosure. +[4204.62 --> 4211.68] And I got really amped about this product because it was basically a way to install a graphics card. +[4212.66 --> 4213.70] Yeah, look at the old intro. +[4213.82 --> 4214.64] I haven't seen that in forever. +[4214.74 --> 4215.30] Let's watch it. +[4215.62 --> 4215.90] Hello. +[4215.90 --> 4216.18] Hello. +[4220.58 --> 4223.56] All the sound effects were made. +[4223.68 --> 4224.00] Yeah. +[4224.20 --> 4224.44] Yeah. +[4224.64 --> 4225.42] All the sound. +[4225.56 --> 4231.16] I barely remember the actual video sequence, but all the sound effects are like permanently ingrained in my brain. +[4231.58 --> 4231.72] Yeah. +[4231.86 --> 4233.66] That was like actually cutting cardboard. +[4234.20 --> 4237.96] And the ping for him winking is hitting a glass with a spoon. +[4238.76 --> 4242.30] Because we were worried about like usage rights for sound effects. +[4242.38 --> 4243.76] And we didn't have any sound effects libraries. +[4243.76 --> 4244.02] Okay. +[4244.02 --> 4252.18] So this bad boy lets you install graphics cards, sound cards, whatever else, and connect all of them to a PC via Thunderbolt. +[4252.38 --> 4261.36] Well, the unfortunate thing about this was due to AMD, mostly AMD and NVIDIA as far as I could tell, and their support for this technology, +[4261.76 --> 4268.44] it was not possible to install external graphics cards even though it was just a PCI Express 4X link over Thunderbolt. +[4268.44 --> 4281.56] Well, now, and this was originally posted by Random Kid on the forum, MSI has taken it into their own hands to release their new GS30 Shadow and Gaming Dock. +[4282.42 --> 4288.04] So basically, it's a 13.3 inch notebook with just plain Intel onboard graphics, +[4288.04 --> 4296.24] and then an external PCI Express link to this box that will house an external graphics card. +[4296.62 --> 4298.56] This is the ultimate to me. +[4298.82 --> 4302.84] Because for carrying around, I use an Ultrabook. +[4303.36 --> 4307.24] I'm not going to carry around a G750JZ all the time. +[4307.54 --> 4309.96] I actually love the G750JZ. +[4310.10 --> 4311.10] Jay-Z's a pretty big dude. +[4311.34 --> 4311.94] Great notebook. +[4312.68 --> 4313.96] This notebook. +[4314.38 --> 4315.56] I actually love this notebook. +[4315.56 --> 4317.18] It's incredibly well-cooled. +[4317.22 --> 4318.24] It performs really well. +[4318.48 --> 4328.18] It's done great for us on shows or, like, if this thing's, like, glitching out and the CPU usage is pinned at 100% and I'm trying to, like, capture footage or something, +[4328.34 --> 4334.22] I know I can go to the G750 and it'll just be fine because it's basically desktop power. +[4334.98 --> 4340.34] But the problem is I'm not going to carry that around with me all over the place unless I need that power all over the place, like at a show. +[4340.34 --> 4343.50] So something like this is a great solution. +[4344.20 --> 4352.28] Out and about, great battery life, get home, plug into the dock, got your peripherals, got your 34-inch ultra-wide monitor, +[4352.54 --> 4355.82] and that desktop-grade graphics performance. +[4355.82 --> 4357.58] I'm excited to bench the crap out of this thing. +[4357.62 --> 4358.04] Me too. +[4358.04 --> 4359.30] That's what I'm excited for. +[4359.50 --> 4360.16] Me too. +[4360.38 --> 4364.44] Speaking of benching the crap out of things, totally not related to that at all, +[4364.44 --> 4368.08] but LG confirmed that they are sending us their new curved 34. +[4371.00 --> 4372.18] LG, man. +[4372.52 --> 4374.38] Be excited for a video about that from him. +[4374.80 --> 4376.78] That's happening. +[4377.12 --> 4380.74] I am either going to conclude that it's the best thing ever, +[4381.06 --> 4385.10] or I'm going to conclude that it's the best thing ever for people who want a curved monitor. +[4385.36 --> 4385.52] Yeah. +[4386.38 --> 4388.86] Both of those conclusions will be pretty darn positive. +[4389.08 --> 4390.34] I already know this. +[4390.38 --> 4392.46] My favorite thing about LG monitors, too, is that... +[4392.46 --> 4393.20] Hashtag no bias. +[4393.20 --> 4397.68] My favorite thing about LG monitors right now, at least, is that they can't... +[4398.38 --> 4403.56] They don't currently have some way to read all of the data on the monitor and send it back, +[4403.66 --> 4406.04] so that you don't have to assign, like, six different check marks, +[4406.30 --> 4409.18] seeing that you're okay with all of your data being theirs when you've pried the product. +[4409.18 --> 4414.64] Yeah, the monitors still don't suffer from those phone and smart TV issues. +[4414.66 --> 4419.42] Because I really wanted to just get a G3 and be happy with that, and then I was like... +[4419.42 --> 4420.22] It's kind of a cool phone. +[4420.56 --> 4420.86] Yeah. +[4421.10 --> 4421.98] It's a pretty cool phone. +[4422.08 --> 4422.32] Yeah. +[4422.32 --> 4422.40] Yeah. +[4422.40 --> 4422.70] Yeah. +[4423.48 --> 4423.98] All right. +[4424.10 --> 4427.84] So, details of the new Moto G are available on Motorola's site. +[4427.98 --> 4429.28] 5-inch 720p screen. +[4429.38 --> 4432.20] They're going much bigger across the entire lineup. +[4432.70 --> 4434.62] 8 and 16 gig versions available. +[4434.74 --> 4435.62] SD card slot. +[4435.90 --> 4439.58] 16 gig plus SD card, I'm kind of okay with, but I really wish we'd move to 32. +[4440.10 --> 4441.68] Two front-facing speakers again. +[4441.82 --> 4442.56] Go Motorola! +[4443.00 --> 4445.68] Is Motorola turning us into Motorola fanboys over here? +[4445.96 --> 4446.32] Slowly. +[4446.62 --> 4446.82] Yeah. +[4447.32 --> 4449.06] But they need to work on battery life. +[4449.06 --> 4451.26] My first cell phone was actually a Motorola. +[4451.82 --> 4452.72] Mine was... +[4452.72 --> 4454.78] I don't know what it was, because it was horrible. +[4454.78 --> 4458.68] It was the cheapest thing they could get me that had a sliding front, because I didn't want to flip one. +[4458.68 --> 4462.88] My mom is hard of hearing, so... +[4462.88 --> 4463.22] Oh, wait. +[4463.28 --> 4463.78] Smartphone. +[4463.90 --> 4465.30] My first smartphone was not... +[4465.30 --> 4465.54] Oh, no. +[4465.58 --> 4466.06] Not smartphone. +[4466.18 --> 4466.96] This is my first phone. +[4467.76 --> 4468.16] What? +[4468.16 --> 4468.82] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4468.90 --> 4469.16] What? +[4469.50 --> 4470.08] Hold on, hold on. +[4470.14 --> 4471.68] Just calm your boobies. +[4471.84 --> 4472.24] What? +[4472.24 --> 4474.40] This is the Motorola V-Box. +[4474.52 --> 4476.76] My mom's hard of hearing, so it wasn't so much... +[4476.76 --> 4476.86] Oh. +[4476.86 --> 4477.58] So we all got them. +[4477.60 --> 4478.14] Oh, now I feel bad. +[4478.18 --> 4483.34] So it wasn't so much about the phone call experience, but more about the text. +[4483.70 --> 4486.66] And this was one of the first options available ever. +[4486.86 --> 4488.24] In fact, it might have been the first. +[4488.52 --> 4491.24] With a full-fledged keyboard. +[4491.44 --> 4492.50] Full QWERTY keyboard. +[4493.08 --> 4494.86] Like, and actually a fairly good one. +[4494.98 --> 4496.42] I got pretty fast on this thing. +[4496.90 --> 4499.24] And there are no good pictures of it, because, like... +[4499.24 --> 4501.38] Because how could you take a good picture of that? +[4501.38 --> 4506.98] Back when this thing existed, like, two megapixels was pretty good for a digital camera. +[4507.38 --> 4508.46] But we all had them. +[4508.66 --> 4510.10] In order to talk... +[4510.10 --> 4514.12] In order to use voice communication, you actually had to use a headset. +[4514.74 --> 4515.18] Beautiful. +[4515.36 --> 4516.66] Not Bluetooth headset, mind you. +[4516.66 --> 4517.04] Oh, yeah. +[4517.16 --> 4518.46] Like, wired inline headset. +[4518.46 --> 4523.64] Or they had this goofy, stupid thing that, like, clipped onto the battery cover that plugged +[4523.64 --> 4526.10] into the headset jack, which wasn't very durable. +[4526.42 --> 4527.42] Because apparently no one... +[4527.42 --> 4528.76] That reminds me of, like... +[4528.76 --> 4531.00] Remember how you'd trick out your Game Boy Color? +[4531.56 --> 4533.90] Like, all those, like, weird attachments and the lights? +[4534.00 --> 4535.00] Never had a Game Boy Color. +[4535.26 --> 4535.50] Oh. +[4535.66 --> 4535.90] Did you have an original Game Boy? +[4535.90 --> 4536.80] I was a Game Gear kid. +[4537.56 --> 4537.80] No? +[4537.96 --> 4538.56] You're a Game Gear kid? +[4538.56 --> 4539.36] Game Gear kid, yeah. +[4539.36 --> 4542.68] How many landfills are filled with the batteries that you used for that? +[4542.82 --> 4543.80] I actually... +[4543.80 --> 4545.10] That was the Game Gear... +[4545.10 --> 4546.56] Is that the reason why you jumped to rechargeables? +[4546.56 --> 4547.94] Was what drove me to rechargeables. +[4548.06 --> 4548.20] Yep. +[4548.50 --> 4549.34] That's fantastic. +[4549.58 --> 4552.76] The Game Gear single-handedly moved me to rechargeable batteries. +[4552.76 --> 4553.72] It was six, right? +[4553.94 --> 4554.68] Six double A's? +[4554.70 --> 4555.30] Six double A's. +[4555.36 --> 4555.64] Oof. +[4555.64 --> 4556.86] Anyway, sorry, you were saying? +[4558.44 --> 4560.26] I don't remember. +[4561.04 --> 4561.36] Okay. +[4561.40 --> 4562.64] I thought I was just talking about... +[4563.42 --> 4564.64] Yeah, no, I was talking about how the... +[4565.26 --> 4567.26] You can attach that mic or whatever, right? +[4567.44 --> 4567.68] Sure. +[4567.68 --> 4571.22] And how you were explaining it reminded me of all the attachments and stuff you could get +[4571.22 --> 4572.30] for stuff like Game Boy Color. +[4572.52 --> 4572.74] Right. +[4572.74 --> 4578.04] Or a Game Boy Classic or a whole bunch of different Game Boys where you could get the light or the +[4578.04 --> 4583.16] weird screen protector thing or the screen magnifier or the grip thing and like, oh my goodness. +[4583.16 --> 4584.46] Or the chromed rims. +[4585.16 --> 4585.64] Basically. +[4586.04 --> 4586.48] Subwoofer. +[4587.54 --> 4587.98] Yeah. +[4587.98 --> 4594.18] Speaking of chromed rims and subwoofer, this was originally posted by James669 and Dell is +[4594.18 --> 4599.66] showing off their latest 5K monitor. +[4600.20 --> 4600.70] 4K? +[4600.86 --> 4602.98] That is so 2014. +[4604.12 --> 4605.24] Last quarter. +[4605.92 --> 4606.92] Or this quarter. +[4606.92 --> 4618.62] Next quarter, Dell will make available for the value price of $2,500, a 27-inch, 14.7 megapixel +[4618.62 --> 4619.32] monitor. +[4619.32 --> 4625.62] This bad boy will not be able to be driven by DisplayPort 1.2. +[4625.84 --> 4635.80] In fact, just to demo the thing, they had a Quadro 5000 running with dual DisplayPort 1.2 outputs +[4635.80 --> 4638.88] out to the dual inputs on the monitor. +[4639.52 --> 4642.76] I have to question why we need this. +[4643.12 --> 4644.94] I can imagine this as a tech demo. +[4645.40 --> 4648.28] Like I can see them creating this for a trade show or something. +[4648.28 --> 4649.28] Hey, we can do it. +[4649.28 --> 4649.58] Are they selling it? +[4649.76 --> 4649.98] Yeah. +[4650.02 --> 4650.22] Oh yeah. +[4650.28 --> 4651.00] It's going to go on sale. +[4651.26 --> 4652.24] It has a price already. +[4652.24 --> 4652.44] Yeah. +[4652.44 --> 4652.94] It's $25, yeah. +[4653.34 --> 4653.58] Yeah. +[4654.18 --> 4656.38] It just feels like because we can. +[4656.54 --> 4660.66] I mean, I'm already not sold on 4K because of the scaling issues in Windows. +[4660.76 --> 4661.18] Oh God. +[4661.36 --> 4664.54] Once that gets addressed, let's all go 4K. +[4664.70 --> 4667.28] But right now, it is not a great experience. +[4667.44 --> 4669.32] Right now, I think 1440p is pretty awesome. +[4669.32 --> 4675.44] And I actually, and that's one of the reasons I like LG's 34-inch ultrawide so much is that it's +[4675.44 --> 4678.76] the same pixel pitch as a 27-inch 1440p monitor. +[4678.96 --> 4679.12] Yeah. +[4679.12 --> 4683.58] But it's 3440 by 1440 so it's a nice high resolution and it's so big. +[4684.36 --> 4685.98] This isn't that big. +[4686.36 --> 4687.38] It's only 27-inch. +[4687.72 --> 4690.72] It's very high resolution, which means you're going to have to deal with tech scaling. +[4690.72 --> 4695.86] And it's going to be very, very difficult to run in a way that doesn't increase immersion +[4695.86 --> 4696.54] in any way. +[4696.98 --> 4701.46] So I love it because it's better technology for the sake of better technology. +[4701.82 --> 4706.98] But I'm not a huge fan of the kind of graphics horsepower you're going to need to drive this +[4706.98 --> 4707.22] thing. +[4707.84 --> 4712.06] I think that's actually more than our triple 1440p surround setup. +[4713.70 --> 4714.22] Yeah. +[4714.22 --> 4718.26] So I don't think I ever clarified the resolution that it runs at. +[4718.36 --> 4719.46] In fact, I, oh yeah, here we go. +[4719.58 --> 4721.76] 5120 by 2880. +[4722.90 --> 4727.34] So that is twice the number of vertical pixels as a standard 27-inch monitor. +[4728.68 --> 4731.74] And twice the horizontal resolution. +[4731.88 --> 4734.02] In fact, that's, I didn't, that didn't, I didn't even clue into that. +[4734.28 --> 4739.08] This is, this is to 1440p what 4K is to 1080p. +[4740.30 --> 4740.70] Ridiculous. +[4740.90 --> 4741.66] Yeah, ridiculous. +[4741.66 --> 4744.64] Well, someone's got to push the envelope. +[4745.02 --> 4745.20] Yeah. +[4745.68 --> 4746.78] I hope it runs at 60 hertz. +[4747.30 --> 4749.84] Based on that, they needed two DisplayPort 1.2s. +[4749.90 --> 4750.62] I suspect it will. +[4750.86 --> 4751.04] Yeah. +[4751.30 --> 4751.62] All right. +[4751.66 --> 4756.68] So for, speaking of 4K, 4K Blu-ray discs are arriving in 2015 in an attempt to fight +[4756.68 --> 4757.84] back against streaming media. +[4757.96 --> 4759.18] This is post by Dietrich W. +[4759.66 --> 4761.74] And the original source here is from CNET. +[4762.14 --> 4771.14] And we can look at this Blu-ray disc logo and, um, reminisce about a simpler time. +[4771.66 --> 4773.42] When optical media mattered. +[4773.62 --> 4775.82] You know, I'm slowly moving away from physical games. +[4776.74 --> 4777.22] Yeah, dog. +[4777.88 --> 4779.24] Because it's pointless and stupid. +[4779.38 --> 4780.28] You were wrong all along. +[4780.28 --> 4781.58] I still actually really like... +[4781.58 --> 4782.68] Hashtag get wrecked. +[4782.74 --> 4785.02] I would love to still be able to do it. +[4785.52 --> 4786.96] You're poking me in the face. +[4787.22 --> 4788.16] It's probably not a good idea. +[4788.26 --> 4788.66] I'm sick. +[4788.92 --> 4789.42] That's true. +[4789.42 --> 4792.38] Um, that doesn't work that way. +[4792.76 --> 4793.74] That might have helped. +[4793.86 --> 4795.08] That's warm, moist air. +[4796.16 --> 4797.26] Now I put it on my touchpad. +[4797.40 --> 4797.94] There you go. +[4798.04 --> 4798.44] Now you're screwed. +[4798.44 --> 4799.46] I'm gonna put it next. +[4799.60 --> 4800.02] Oh, God. +[4800.60 --> 4806.90] Um, the only reason why is because it is, uh, worthless because 99% of the time it just +[4806.90 --> 4808.58] screws up and makes you download it anyways. +[4809.12 --> 4809.50] Mm-hmm. +[4810.10 --> 4815.32] If it actually had all of the usable data on the disc, then I would still be totally down. +[4815.72 --> 4817.78] I'm just floored we never went USB. +[4818.84 --> 4819.44] Why not? +[4820.32 --> 4820.60] Ever... +[4820.60 --> 4823.02] I don't know anyone who didn't think that was gonna happen. +[4823.50 --> 4824.38] I thought it was. +[4824.54 --> 4824.78] Yeah. +[4824.92 --> 4826.64] And they're so cheap now. +[4826.82 --> 4828.52] Like, they're so cheap. +[4828.52 --> 4831.00] Okay, they're not as cheap as a sheet of plastic. +[4831.30 --> 4831.50] No. +[4831.82 --> 4832.74] I will give them that. +[4832.96 --> 4840.90] But I gotta wonder, if someone had cared enough, could a USB standard have been developed that +[4840.90 --> 4844.42] would have allowed for much cheaper, more permanent storage? +[4844.42 --> 4845.36] I gotta wonder. +[4845.48 --> 4850.58] I don't know enough about the technology to really speculate on this, but I and everyone +[4850.58 --> 4857.66] else in probably the digital, you know, generation world figured that you were gonna go into +[4857.66 --> 4861.14] a store, and this was back when we thought stores weren't going away. +[4861.14 --> 4865.04] So you were gonna go into a store, and you were either gonna buy a USB drive that would +[4865.04 --> 4871.56] contain the music album, or you would go in with your USB drive, and you would pick +[4871.56 --> 4875.18] the album you want, you would sit and you would listen to it, because, you know, previews +[4875.18 --> 4876.84] on iTunes, who saw that coming? +[4877.26 --> 4881.18] And you would put the media onto your USB drive that way. +[4881.74 --> 4884.18] I'm dating myself a little bit here, aren't I? +[4884.18 --> 4884.64] A little bit. +[4884.76 --> 4885.18] A little bit. +[4885.60 --> 4887.12] But, I was in that car with people. +[4887.34 --> 4887.66] HMV? +[4889.34 --> 4890.20] They still exist. +[4890.20 --> 4891.44] I know, but who cares? +[4891.66 --> 4892.16] You still have one locally. +[4892.50 --> 4895.36] I was in the town I grew up in the other weekend. +[4895.48 --> 4901.14] I went to the bird sanctuary, and I drove past a Blockbuster that, no, no, it's empty. +[4901.40 --> 4904.16] But the signage is still up, because no one's taken over the location. +[4904.40 --> 4907.74] And I was like, oh, hey, that thing! +[4909.12 --> 4910.20] I remember you! +[4910.28 --> 4911.00] I never... +[4911.00 --> 4912.76] There was that secret room in the back! +[4913.02 --> 4913.36] Yeah. +[4913.94 --> 4917.08] I never used Blockbuster, because we didn't have one locally to me. +[4917.14 --> 4920.18] So when everyone's like, oh my god, it's so weird seeing Blockbuster. +[4920.20 --> 4921.14] There's now that they're closed. +[4921.30 --> 4922.24] I'm like, nope. +[4924.26 --> 4924.94] Don't care. +[4925.08 --> 4926.46] It's all about Willow Video for you. +[4926.58 --> 4926.82] Yeah. +[4927.06 --> 4928.50] Which, they're still going strong. +[4928.52 --> 4929.62] They're still around somehow. +[4929.72 --> 4932.46] They're doing better lately, which makes no sense. +[4932.66 --> 4933.60] All right, tight ya! +[4933.92 --> 4934.56] Well, you know what? +[4934.60 --> 4940.16] I think those non-chain types of stores probably appeal to an older audience better. +[4940.82 --> 4943.58] Yeah, but then also their game sales and stuff is doing great. +[4944.26 --> 4945.30] And they still do... +[4945.30 --> 4946.60] Okay, all that's inexplicable to me. +[4946.62 --> 4947.94] But they do console games, largely. +[4948.24 --> 4948.48] Right. +[4948.64 --> 4950.16] They're slowly moving away from PC games, which makes sense. +[4950.16 --> 4951.12] And that's going to go away, too. +[4951.12 --> 4951.40] Makes sense. +[4951.84 --> 4952.24] Probably. +[4952.72 --> 4953.70] All right, so tight ya! +[4953.84 --> 4957.28] Posted on the forum, Intel's new 14 nanometer chips. +[4957.74 --> 4960.82] So Intel has made a lot of fuss over the last little while. +[4960.96 --> 4963.36] This original article here is from BBC.com, of all places. +[4963.60 --> 4963.92] BBC. +[4963.92 --> 4968.88] Pretty sure there are a number of other places that reported on this that are more technology-oriented. +[4968.88 --> 4976.24] Anyway, the point is that they have finally launched the Core M series, which goes all +[4976.24 --> 4984.36] the way down to 4.5 watt CPUs, based on their new 14 nanometer process node manufacturing. +[4984.64 --> 4985.00] Ridiculous. +[4985.08 --> 4987.24] Yeah, this is amazing. +[4987.56 --> 4992.22] So Intel has actually been talking a fair bit recently about how successful their move to +[4992.22 --> 4997.62] 14 nanometer has been, which is great news, especially when you consider how rough it has +[4997.62 --> 5004.04] been for a lot of other folks, and how unexceptional Intel's last process node migration was. +[5004.42 --> 5006.42] Now, we're seeing better power characteristics. +[5006.76 --> 5008.08] We're seeing better performance. +[5008.22 --> 5013.44] We're seeing all this great stuff that has improved, not just in a linear manner this time around. +[5013.54 --> 5014.48] So this is exciting. +[5015.04 --> 5021.78] Intel had initially aimed to launch a full-fledged desktop lineup sooner, but at least they now +[5021.78 --> 5028.50] have shipping chips that are going to be targeted at very low power and razor-thin fanless tablets +[5028.50 --> 5034.72] without manufacturers having to resort to ARM-based CPU designs. +[5034.98 --> 5041.58] So this is incredibly exciting in much the same way that every time Intel completely changes +[5041.58 --> 5044.68] the laws of how processors work is incredibly exciting. +[5044.68 --> 5048.86] It's like, Intel's a victim of their own success in that way. +[5049.68 --> 5052.26] It's like, yeah, Intel broke physics again. +[5053.26 --> 5053.66] Whatever. +[5054.02 --> 5055.10] Same as they did last year. +[5056.98 --> 5057.98] It's not necessarily... +[5057.98 --> 5059.18] I'm not going to get into that. +[5059.32 --> 5059.58] Anyways. +[5060.30 --> 5061.90] I was going to say it's not necessarily breaking physics. +[5063.04 --> 5063.48] Anyways. +[5063.76 --> 5063.96] No one cares. +[5063.96 --> 5064.28] I know. +[5064.58 --> 5064.92] No one cares. +[5064.92 --> 5069.18] But they might be breaking what we conventionally thought were the laws. +[5069.34 --> 5070.10] That's what I meant. +[5070.20 --> 5070.46] I know. +[5070.64 --> 5071.10] That's why. +[5071.20 --> 5072.44] That's why I was like, no one cares. +[5072.66 --> 5073.34] I'm not... +[5073.34 --> 5077.20] I'm probably like the only dude here that actually... +[5077.20 --> 5077.78] You dork. +[5077.90 --> 5078.28] Anyways. +[5079.96 --> 5080.94] I like physics. +[5081.14 --> 5081.46] Alright. +[5081.66 --> 5083.42] Well, I think that's it for me. +[5083.42 --> 5085.54] Do you have anything else? +[5086.10 --> 5086.58] No. +[5086.82 --> 5087.62] There was... +[5087.62 --> 5089.32] Rig of the Week voting is a thing. +[5089.66 --> 5089.88] Yeah. +[5090.28 --> 5090.60] Voting. +[5091.02 --> 5091.96] Go to Buildlogs. +[5092.08 --> 5093.16] Buildlogs section of the forum. +[5093.16 --> 5097.08] Vote for Rig of the Like very large spans of time. +[5097.26 --> 5100.70] Because we're trying to kind of catch up. +[5101.20 --> 5104.64] So there's a lot of rigs being voted on right now. +[5104.74 --> 5105.56] So weigh in. +[5106.00 --> 5109.48] And we will hopefully be blasting that on a WAN show sometime soon. +[5111.56 --> 5112.12] Yeah. +[5112.12 --> 5116.92] I have roped in Wailer and Alpenwasser to help me with Buildlogs. +[5117.38 --> 5119.94] So things are actually properly happening now. +[5120.14 --> 5121.02] Which are good. +[5121.02 --> 5123.18] What? +[5124.06 --> 5125.08] I'm Luke Skywalker. +[5125.24 --> 5127.16] Because that's how the Force worked in the original trilogy. +[5130.88 --> 5131.84] You're like a Wampa. +[5133.26 --> 5134.74] There goes your arm, you sucka. +[5135.42 --> 5136.18] You're big like one. +[5137.86 --> 5138.30] Um. +[5139.26 --> 5140.38] Not that kind of thing. +[5140.38 --> 5141.92] I mean that too. +[5142.12 --> 5142.20] But. +[5142.84 --> 5143.20] Anyway. +[5143.34 --> 5143.82] Moving on. +[5143.94 --> 5144.84] What were we talking about? +[5144.90 --> 5145.38] Oh, right. +[5145.46 --> 5146.08] I forgot. +[5146.28 --> 5146.72] Squarespace. +[5146.72 --> 5146.96] Squarespace. +[5147.32 --> 5147.76] Um. +[5147.88 --> 5149.78] We're doing our usual hashtag thing. +[5150.14 --> 5154.04] So it's the first Squarespace integration of the month. +[5154.84 --> 5157.48] So tweet your Squarespace. +[5157.68 --> 5162.44] A link to your Squarespace site with hashtag Linus Squarespace. +[5162.44 --> 5163.44] Squarespace. +[5163.44 --> 5167.78] And you will have a chance to win your site hosted for free for a year. +[5168.70 --> 5169.18] Nice. +[5169.62 --> 5174.58] And that will be on our next Squarespace sponsorship spot where we will pick one of you. +[5174.88 --> 5177.46] And we will go ahead and we will announce a winner. +[5177.70 --> 5179.10] Free website for a year, guys. +[5179.28 --> 5180.40] They have a two week trial. +[5180.52 --> 5182.68] And our next spot should be within the next couple of weeks. +[5182.68 --> 5187.58] So go ahead and create your site and then you could win your site to continue developing +[5187.58 --> 5188.46] for a year. +[5188.56 --> 5189.20] So that's pretty cool. +[5189.86 --> 5191.14] I think that's pretty much it. +[5191.30 --> 5191.40] Yeah. +[5191.50 --> 5192.74] That's probably it. +[5192.82 --> 5199.24] Oh, there was the, I think it was overclockers.uk or something had a listed a graphics card in +[5199.24 --> 5199.72] the description. +[5199.88 --> 5206.76] It was like, get ready for, um, Half-Life 3 and my phone going off is distracting me. +[5206.80 --> 5208.44] Half-Life 3 and GTA 5 launches. +[5208.98 --> 5210.48] Should I answer this and troll whoever it is? +[5210.48 --> 5210.70] Sure. +[5212.68 --> 5213.36] Hello? +[5214.94 --> 5215.34] Hi. +[5216.04 --> 5216.72] Hi, Mom. +[5216.80 --> 5217.38] You're on the show. +[5218.26 --> 5218.60] I know. +[5218.68 --> 5219.90] I need to speak to Linus. +[5220.64 --> 5223.82] Your mom's on, uh, Shaw Home phone, isn't she? +[5225.76 --> 5226.18] No. +[5226.32 --> 5227.86] I think that's her note 3. +[5228.24 --> 5228.58] Oh. +[5228.80 --> 5229.16] All right. +[5229.22 --> 5230.06] Well, at any rate. +[5230.16 --> 5230.60] All right. +[5230.64 --> 5230.92] All right. +[5230.96 --> 5231.50] What do we got? +[5233.40 --> 5233.80] Linus. +[5234.06 --> 5234.46] Mm-hmm. +[5234.46 --> 5240.10] The last, the first time you took my kid out of country, you stuck him at the top of the +[5240.10 --> 5243.26] top building in the world when there was an earthquake. +[5243.26 --> 5244.12] What happened on this trip? +[5244.72 --> 5245.56] Uh, yeah. +[5245.64 --> 5248.68] Uh, well, actually, that was Western Digital's idea. +[5252.32 --> 5254.32] Uh, Linus, who's in charge? +[5254.32 --> 5255.04] Ha! +[5256.38 --> 5257.90] Well, um... +[5257.90 --> 5260.42] One could argue that on the sponsor's trip. +[5260.42 --> 5263.12] I'm going to go with the safe answer here and say my wife. +[5263.52 --> 5263.74] Ooh. +[5264.46 --> 5265.22] Ah, yes. +[5265.38 --> 5266.16] No, no, no. +[5266.16 --> 5267.20] Okay, let's go. +[5267.30 --> 5272.20] The second time you took him out of the country, you stuck him on the top of a mountain where +[5272.20 --> 5273.84] he was busy and throwing up. +[5274.14 --> 5275.16] Not the second time. +[5275.32 --> 5279.46] Yeah, I think she means, like, the second time that stood out to her, which means she +[5279.46 --> 5281.04] was deeply concerned for your safety. +[5281.22 --> 5281.42] Right. +[5281.86 --> 5282.24] Okay. +[5282.24 --> 5284.36] Uh, what, what, what is it this time? +[5285.34 --> 5289.84] Well, the second time, or what it means is you, when Linus is in charge and he takes +[5289.84 --> 5292.10] you out of the country, your life is in danger. +[5294.28 --> 5294.72] Okay. +[5294.72 --> 5296.90] I also asked to go on that trip. +[5297.54 --> 5299.64] And now you want to take him to Germany? +[5300.24 --> 5301.06] Uh, yes. +[5301.52 --> 5302.70] What's wrong with that? +[5303.94 --> 5305.14] Germany is safe. +[5305.30 --> 5305.58] Yeah. +[5306.52 --> 5309.46] Give me a heads up on how you're going to try to kill him in Germany. +[5310.38 --> 5316.02] Well, the way that he would be most likely to die in Germany would be from... +[5316.02 --> 5318.16] How politically incorrect can I go with this? +[5318.20 --> 5319.22] You know, maybe I won't go there. +[5319.22 --> 5324.84] Um, so, so the way, the way that he would be most likely to die in Germany would be probably +[5324.84 --> 5329.54] from sensory overload from being surrounded by Cherry MX key switches. +[5329.54 --> 5331.84] So, it's pretty safe. +[5331.84 --> 5334.96] The odds of that happening is probably only about 50-50. +[5337.46 --> 5338.64] Only 50-50. +[5338.76 --> 5338.98] Okay. +[5339.30 --> 5340.40] Question, Linus. +[5340.50 --> 5340.76] Yes. +[5340.80 --> 5343.54] Did you take life insurance on Luke? +[5343.54 --> 5346.32] Uh, I think he has it through the... +[5346.32 --> 5353.78] Yeah, I think you pay your own premium because that way, if you have to have it paid out, it's +[5353.78 --> 5355.42] not taxable or something. +[5355.64 --> 5355.80] Something like that. +[5355.80 --> 5357.30] Yeah, Luke pays his own premium. +[5357.44 --> 5359.78] But yes, he does have life insurance, I believe. +[5359.78 --> 5363.84] But he, I think he chooses his own beneficiary and I don't think he picked me. +[5364.90 --> 5365.50] Did you? +[5366.10 --> 5367.20] Oh, all right then. +[5367.80 --> 5368.54] Ashley, get right there. +[5369.54 --> 5377.64] Linus, if he doesn't come back in 100% total intact person, I will be coming for you. +[5380.88 --> 5382.26] All right, thank you, caller. +[5382.60 --> 5387.34] I think it's time to, uh, I think it's time to go back to the phone boards and find another +[5387.34 --> 5387.72] caller. +[5387.72 --> 5391.68] All right, so guys, thanks for tuning in. +[5392.02 --> 5393.60] Uh, we'll see you again next week. +[5393.70 --> 5395.12] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[5395.46 --> 5400.66] It'll be him and, in all likelihood, ColdSC, his brother, talking about the same kind of +[5400.66 --> 5401.08] stuff. +[5401.38 --> 5402.46] Thanks again for watching. +[5402.58 --> 5404.52] We totally appreciate you guys tuning in. +[5404.58 --> 5405.52] You guys have been amazing. +[5405.94 --> 5411.38] The last few weeks, we've been consistently over 5,000 live viewers on the show. +[5411.38 --> 5411.62] That's pretty beast. +[5411.62 --> 5415.18] Even if we factor out all of Luke's family members who apparently watch. +[5415.18 --> 5419.74] And, apparently, everyone's like totally into the archive these days. +[5420.06 --> 5420.18] Yeah. +[5420.18 --> 5421.06] Every archive. +[5421.30 --> 5423.34] Like 80,000, 90,000 views. +[5423.34 --> 5423.96] Pretty cool, actually. +[5424.06 --> 5428.12] You guys are making us feel like an actual, legit podcast these days. +[5428.16 --> 5429.18] Which is interesting. +[5429.42 --> 5430.08] Which is kind of cool. +[5430.08 --> 5431.86] Because I listen to a lot of different podcasts. +[5432.04 --> 5437.16] I look, I look at podcasters who are much bigger than us. +[5437.24 --> 5438.42] Guys like Ray William Johnson. +[5438.58 --> 5439.84] So, his Runaway Thoughts podcast. +[5440.28 --> 5442.58] You can say what you want about Ray William Johnson's content. +[5442.90 --> 5446.56] The truth of the matter is, he's a much bigger deal than us. +[5446.64 --> 5449.24] In terms of sheer numbers in every possible category. +[5449.24 --> 5453.82] He quit YouTube, but he's still doing, I think he still does the podcast, and he's still creating content. +[5454.06 --> 5454.20] Okay. +[5454.24 --> 5455.36] And, he didn't quit that long ago. +[5455.66 --> 5464.46] So, anyway, the point is, we're coming up to the point now where it's not like when show gets like 120th as many views as Runaway Thoughts. +[5465.04 --> 5468.74] It's like smaller or bigger fractions, rather. +[5468.74 --> 5471.56] So, we're not there yet, but you guys are awesome. +[5471.72 --> 5472.42] Thank you very much. +[5472.48 --> 5473.44] We appreciate you guys. +[5473.52 --> 5475.94] We appreciate our sponsors, Squarespace and Dollar Shave Club. +[5476.22 --> 5478.90] And, I've said this a few times now, but we will see you next week. +[5479.02 --> 5479.56] Except me. +[5479.68 --> 5480.16] I will not. +[5484.66 --> 5487.78] My brother's really into mobile stuff. +[5488.66 --> 5491.84] And, a lot of the stuff recently is, like, next week is probably going to be mobile stuff. +[5492.02 --> 5492.36] So, I don't know. +[5492.70 --> 5493.34] Should be good. +[5494.54 --> 5495.92] The Wad Show. +[5496.52 --> 5498.66] I'm making my own theme song. +[5498.74 --> 5502.04] It's all about the Wad Show. +[5502.34 --> 5504.14] On the line is 10 tips. +[5504.26 --> 5505.54] We're riffing now. +[5505.88 --> 5508.00] This is the song that is so awesome. +[5513.76 --> 5514.72] And, we're done. +[5517.18 --> 5517.74] No? +[5518.24 --> 5518.82] We're not done? +[5520.20 --> 5521.22] Oh, um. diff --git a/The WAN Show - iPhone on Fire

It has to optimize for your specific computer. +[8.40 --> 13.84] Yeah, I know, but it took a really long time to install. Then it wants a restart? Are you freaking kidding me? +[14.04 --> 23.68] So that's what delayed us, actually. We were looking at up to 65% CPU usage while Paint.net optimized the performance of our system here. +[23.92 --> 27.36] So, yeah, we're live now. Welcome to the WAN show, guys. +[27.36 --> 29.46] It might even be harder to run than Assassin's Creed Unity. +[30.26 --> 33.82] I don't know. Assassin's Creed Unity looks like it's going to be a bit of a beast. +[34.18 --> 40.34] We've got a great show for you today, guys. As you can see, my wonderful co-host was not actually fired. +[40.68 --> 46.10] You know, I get it because I haven't really made that joke in months. +[46.28 --> 54.70] And so we've got a lot of new viewers who legitimately were concerned two weeks ago when he wasn't on WAN show that he had been fired. +[54.70 --> 56.48] Because I was like, yeah, I fired him. +[56.48 --> 60.68] I could tell whenever WAN show went live because I'm like overseas, so time is all weird. +[60.80 --> 65.42] But I could tell when WAN show went live because my phone would blow up with people being like, oh my god, you were actually fired? +[66.10 --> 66.46] No. +[66.66 --> 69.04] No, he was on vacation in Germany. +[69.04 --> 74.08] So he's back now and we don't have any special guests because he's kind of like our special guest. +[74.08 --> 74.40] Yay. +[74.40 --> 74.90] Yay. +[74.90 --> 75.40] Yay. +[75.40 --> 77.08] We've got a bunch of great topics for you today, though. +[77.08 --> 81.44] Far Cry 4 is going to be crazy expensive if you want all of the launch day DLC. +[81.44 --> 82.48] And there's a lot of it. +[82.48 --> 83.92] And there's a lot of it. +[83.98 --> 85.80] Wow, we even have some more details about that. +[86.24 --> 89.68] Also, there is a real live hoverboard. +[89.96 --> 97.50] And if you were to move faster than hearing about it from me and then going to buy it, you would have been able to buy one. +[97.66 --> 100.86] All of the production units from the first run have been sold. +[101.08 --> 102.22] More about that later. +[102.22 --> 105.84] DSL may be getting an upgrade to get to gigabit speeds. +[106.40 --> 106.80] Gigabits. +[107.38 --> 108.08] Gigabits, yeah. +[108.12 --> 109.78] That's like a bazillion bits. +[110.76 --> 113.52] Actually, it's a very specific number of bits that isn't a bazillion. +[113.62 --> 114.02] I knew that. +[114.08 --> 114.38] Don't worry. +[115.32 --> 117.94] Assassin's Creed Unity specs are just dumb. +[118.62 --> 119.06] That's... +[119.06 --> 120.60] There's one word for it. +[121.26 --> 121.70] Dumb. +[122.36 --> 123.68] Actually, there could be two words. +[123.80 --> 125.86] We could use a synonym like stupid. +[126.38 --> 126.70] Ah. +[127.04 --> 127.48] Yes. +[127.60 --> 131.62] No, I don't think stupid is right because stupid can even have like a positive meaning. +[131.62 --> 134.84] Like, that car is so fast it's stupid. +[135.10 --> 136.20] Or it's like stupid fast. +[136.42 --> 136.46] Yeah. +[136.64 --> 137.86] You don't say dumb fast. +[138.08 --> 138.30] No. +[138.66 --> 139.60] Dumb fast sounds like... +[139.60 --> 142.68] And I've heard people say stupid awesome, but I've never heard anyone say dumb awesome. +[142.82 --> 143.28] Dumb awesome. +[143.36 --> 144.20] We should start that. +[145.68 --> 146.26] We should... +[146.26 --> 149.62] We need dumb awesome computers that are on Assassin's Creed Unity. +[149.72 --> 151.92] We need shirts that say, I'm dumb awesome. +[152.14 --> 152.54] Ubisoft. +[152.84 --> 153.46] Dumb awesome. +[154.84 --> 156.14] We better roll the intro. +[156.14 --> 156.74] Okay. +[161.62 --> 182.22] And our first sponsor today is Lynda.com.

214.24] Okay. +[214.30 --> 215.42] I'm not going to talk over the music. +[215.52 --> 215.76] Go away. +[216.08 --> 218.74] So Phantom Glass is our second sponsor today. +[218.90 --> 224.02] Phantom Glass is a fantastic covering for the front of your phone. +[224.14 --> 228.96] Basically, it's exactly the same Gorilla Glass that you already had on your phone, except +[228.96 --> 233.00] it's got this super duper nano coating and it's awesome. +[233.00 --> 236.62] Visit store.fantomglass.com for more details. +[236.90 --> 242.00] So thanks to our sponsors, Lynda.com and Phantom Glass for making The Wancho possible today. +[242.00 --> 244.32] And thanks to you for coming back. +[244.40 --> 245.48] I was worried you might not. +[245.56 --> 246.74] You loved Germany so much. +[246.74 --> 247.24] I did, actually. +[247.54 --> 248.14] I really did. +[248.18 --> 251.22] Want to tell us a little bit about your trip before we actually talk about the things that +[251.22 --> 253.00] these people paid good money to hear us talk about? +[253.28 --> 254.12] Um, there's... +[254.12 --> 257.98] I always come back with the story where my mom would probably kill you if she heard it. +[258.04 --> 259.30] So I guess I'll give that one. +[259.74 --> 260.06] Um... +[260.06 --> 260.86] Great. +[260.96 --> 261.34] Thank you. +[261.74 --> 262.54] When we first... +[262.54 --> 263.68] When Brandon and I first got to Berlin... +[263.68 --> 263.70] Okay. +[263.86 --> 264.40] Uh, hold on. +[264.40 --> 265.06] Hold on a second. +[265.28 --> 269.88] Mrs. Slick, this is me turning off my phone right now. +[270.08 --> 270.86] Well, I tried. +[270.86 --> 273.86] Turning it off better now. +[273.86 --> 274.44] There you go. +[274.66 --> 274.98] Now it's up. +[275.12 --> 275.68] Phone off. +[275.74 --> 277.10] Now that the phone's off, we will continue. +[277.24 --> 278.16] My phone's not even on me. +[278.22 --> 278.34] Good. +[278.36 --> 278.90] So we're good. +[279.10 --> 279.34] All right. +[279.38 --> 280.62] There will be no call-ins today. +[280.80 --> 281.02] No. +[281.72 --> 283.96] So we get to Berlin and we're supposed to stay at this hostel. +[284.30 --> 286.02] Already not super great situation. +[286.06 --> 288.08] So this was right after... +[288.08 --> 289.12] Right as you guys... +[289.12 --> 289.76] Right after I left. +[289.80 --> 289.98] Okay. +[290.16 --> 291.12] Just right afterwards. +[291.28 --> 293.10] Actually, everything while Linus was there was fine. +[293.18 --> 294.34] So mom doesn't have to kill you. +[295.14 --> 295.62] Um... +[295.62 --> 296.36] We get to the hostel. +[296.56 --> 297.12] No vacancy. +[297.42 --> 298.10] We're like, what? +[298.32 --> 298.74] That... +[298.74 --> 299.22] Okay. +[299.22 --> 301.24] So we start wandering around trying to find a different one. +[301.58 --> 304.04] Every one that we go to, also no vacancy. +[304.48 --> 309.30] Random, super cute, super nice British chick is like, oh, by the way, there's this other +[309.30 --> 313.76] hostel that has three beds still open, which is right there and points at the sketchiest +[313.76 --> 315.98] place I've ever seen in my entire life. +[316.08 --> 319.06] Including that hotel that you stayed in in Vegas? +[319.06 --> 322.64] It looks sketchier on the outside than that hotel did. +[322.78 --> 323.14] Wow. +[323.22 --> 323.88] On the outside. +[324.16 --> 324.40] Okay. +[324.44 --> 325.02] Not on the inside. +[325.40 --> 326.72] Well, I'll get to that in a second though. +[327.02 --> 327.64] So you walk up. +[327.70 --> 329.20] There's no sign at all. +[329.44 --> 334.14] The door is covered in like random paint and like spray paint and crap and the part of the +[334.14 --> 337.38] window pane is broken and it's just super ghetto. +[337.60 --> 340.94] And you open the door and walk in and the door doesn't properly close. +[340.94 --> 344.88] I later end up figuring out that they actually bar the door from the inside when they want +[344.88 --> 346.68] it to be closed because there's no working lock. +[348.56 --> 349.96] The place is called Aloha. +[350.12 --> 354.08] You have to go up a whole bunch of stairs to get up in there and all of the stairs are +[354.08 --> 359.48] covered in like crap graffiti or like Sharpie writing and it's just horrible. +[360.28 --> 361.74] But it's the only place we could find to stay. +[361.92 --> 366.98] You get up to the actual door for the Aloha and like at this point I'm basically dragging +[366.98 --> 370.98] Brandon because Brandon's like... +[370.98 --> 372.30] So I'm like, no, we got to do this. +[372.34 --> 373.04] We have nowhere else to stay. +[373.12 --> 374.08] We have to dump our bag somewhere. +[374.56 --> 378.94] So I finally get to the door, open it up and all the walls are like super bright colored +[378.94 --> 382.18] and it looks like they actually had artists come in and like paint on all the walls and +[382.18 --> 382.34] stuff. +[382.48 --> 384.70] So it's nice once you get into the main area. +[384.96 --> 385.14] Right. +[385.16 --> 389.48] But it is the most ghetto place I've ever stepped foot in before you get to that main area. +[389.86 --> 391.90] So there's one of my stories from my trip. +[392.04 --> 393.62] That was within the first 24 hours. +[393.74 --> 394.14] Oh, good. +[394.14 --> 399.80] Well, I'm sure I can expect a call whether I'm on the show or not from your mom telling +[399.80 --> 401.48] me about how what a bad person I am. +[401.80 --> 402.04] All right. +[402.10 --> 407.14] So speaking of me being a bad person, why don't we move into our first topic here? +[407.32 --> 408.88] How does this have anything to do with you being a bad person? +[408.88 --> 409.56] Yeah, it doesn't really. +[409.66 --> 409.78] Okay. +[409.78 --> 411.42] This is inbox by Gmail. +[411.62 --> 413.68] This is not a replacement for Gmail. +[414.18 --> 419.58] This is just from first glance, it looks like a new way of organizing your Gmail. +[419.78 --> 422.66] I actually really like what I've seen so far. +[422.66 --> 426.62] I did request an invite, which is actually the only way to join. +[426.82 --> 428.88] So there's a request invite button up here. +[428.88 --> 429.54] I didn't go do that. +[429.66 --> 433.94] And we can go ahead and yeah, you better do that, Luke, because it looks like it's pretty +[433.94 --> 434.14] cool. +[434.46 --> 437.22] Actually, the invite system is redonkulous. +[437.60 --> 440.74] You send an email to inbox at gmail.com. +[441.30 --> 442.18] Not even kidding. +[442.40 --> 443.58] And the button's broken. +[443.86 --> 449.46] When I click the link, it opens up my Gmail, but doesn't actually open up a... +[449.46 --> 449.80] Oh, yeah. +[449.86 --> 450.18] No two. +[450.18 --> 453.42] Yeah, it doesn't actually auto-populate the to field. +[453.66 --> 454.18] No way. +[454.18 --> 455.10] So you have to type it in yourself. +[455.50 --> 457.40] It's like, oh, come on, Google. +[458.12 --> 462.54] Anyway, so the way that it works is that, you know how we've had for a little while ways +[462.54 --> 466.28] of organizing messages, promos, purchases, blah, blah, blah. +[466.28 --> 470.38] I think right now I've got promotions and then something else. +[470.42 --> 472.70] Anyway, the point is it adds more options like that. +[472.78 --> 475.00] You can now add your own categorization. +[475.28 --> 480.00] So things like purchases, like receipts, things like tracking numbers for orders you've made +[480.00 --> 482.06] online will be sorted out for you. +[482.20 --> 484.00] And this one I really like. +[484.24 --> 488.00] So now you can actually preview stuff like, okay, here's your flight information. +[488.46 --> 490.20] Here's a quick link so you can check in. +[490.28 --> 491.08] It's right there. +[491.14 --> 495.76] You don't even have to open emails in order to get all the information that you need from them. +[495.76 --> 499.52] It seems like they took the whole Google Now concept and just mashed it with Gmail. +[499.86 --> 503.96] And turned it into email, which I think is great because I don't use Google Now, but +[503.96 --> 507.92] I would use Inbox by Gmail because of this right here. +[509.00 --> 513.94] Reminders are one of those things where it feels very separate from everything else about +[513.94 --> 514.32] Android. +[514.88 --> 517.66] Reminders are just kind of this thing. +[518.04 --> 522.32] Like you kind of have it sort of next to your email or something. +[522.32 --> 527.28] It's the same problem that I have with Google Now, which is I actually really like the idea, +[527.48 --> 528.72] but I always forget to check it. +[528.78 --> 529.32] So it's useless. +[529.64 --> 529.86] Yes. +[530.24 --> 533.96] And you forget to clean up the old ones and stuff like that. +[534.02 --> 538.02] So you mean to use it, but you almost need a reminder to remind you to use it. +[538.02 --> 543.92] So having something like this right in my inbox and with ways to manage it, now you can do +[543.92 --> 546.50] things like snooze, both reminders and emails. +[546.50 --> 546.54] Which is great. +[546.54 --> 551.86] Something I've been asking for for ages because I loved that about Windows Pocket PC. +[552.24 --> 552.62] Yeah. +[552.62 --> 554.72] And I still love that about Windows Phone. +[554.80 --> 558.92] It's one of the few things I do love about Windows Phone is the way that you can manage +[558.92 --> 560.42] notifications and reminders. +[560.42 --> 566.12] If you're someone who might be, say for example, on a filming set and you can't deal with it +[566.12 --> 569.98] right now, well, actually iOS 8 has some pretty good reminder management stuff. +[569.98 --> 572.88] The chat pointed something funny, not to interrupt you, but she's using an iPhone. +[575.16 --> 576.30] The chat pointed this out. +[576.36 --> 577.06] I didn't notice this. +[577.28 --> 577.64] Yeah, she is. +[577.82 --> 578.28] Look at that. +[578.36 --> 579.42] That's usually kind of hilarious. +[579.42 --> 579.68] She's using an iPhone 6. +[579.90 --> 580.10] Yeah. +[580.56 --> 580.80] Ha! +[581.06 --> 581.40] That's funny. +[581.40 --> 583.22] It's not like a huge deal, but it's just kind of funny. +[583.22 --> 588.52] You'd think they would have done enough looking into their own images to make sure that they +[588.52 --> 589.40] had their own phones. +[590.04 --> 590.14] Yeah. +[590.20 --> 591.28] Like, that's a Nexus 5. +[591.48 --> 591.96] There you go. +[593.46 --> 594.92] Well, maybe they're making a point. +[595.04 --> 596.72] Maybe the point is this is for everyone. +[596.74 --> 596.98] Works on all devices. +[597.40 --> 597.42] Yeah. +[597.54 --> 597.72] Yeah. +[597.82 --> 601.86] I mean, Google does a reasonably good job of supporting Android. +[602.10 --> 608.34] I mean, their studio app just crashes whenever I reply to comments on iOS 8. +[608.94 --> 610.30] Works fine on iOS 7. +[611.10 --> 611.54] That's funny. +[611.62 --> 611.80] Yeah. +[611.88 --> 612.66] I think this is great. +[612.66 --> 616.82] Being able to manage notifications, being able to snooze an email, like, hey, let me +[616.82 --> 620.96] deal with this in four hours or tomorrow or in a couple days is great. +[620.96 --> 624.80] That would be great for us because a lot of times we'll fire an email to each other at +[624.80 --> 625.88] like three or four in the morning. +[626.00 --> 626.14] Yep. +[626.22 --> 629.72] And I'll get it then and be like, oh, I need to deal with this tomorrow, not now. +[630.72 --> 630.88] Yeah. +[630.90 --> 634.52] I think it's great because I use my email as my to-do list. +[634.52 --> 641.10] I just have a to-do list draft email to myself that I just edit because it's more handy for me +[641.10 --> 644.94] than having a separate app for that, like Evernote. +[645.02 --> 645.16] Yeah. +[645.16 --> 649.08] I do use keep anytime I need a location-based reminder. +[649.08 --> 650.62] But other than that, I use Gmail for that. +[650.70 --> 652.16] And I use it as a scheduler as well. +[652.32 --> 654.64] So the calendar will have like our video release schedule. +[655.26 --> 661.50] But Gmail unread messages is really my to-do list in a lot of ways where I'll be like, +[661.58 --> 664.44] oh, you know, add this to the WAN show discussion or do this or do that. +[664.50 --> 665.26] I'll send myself emails. +[665.26 --> 668.68] And so being able to manage that better looks fantastic. +[668.92 --> 671.76] I'm impressed so far, but I haven't tried it yet, of course. +[671.76 --> 673.10] That signup is pretty funny. +[673.36 --> 676.50] I sent an email and got an immediate reply back, which is like, all right, you've been +[676.50 --> 677.08] out to the list. +[677.18 --> 678.72] Like, why is it done by email? +[678.86 --> 679.72] I don't know. +[679.72 --> 680.32] That's ridiculous. +[680.32 --> 680.72] Super weird. +[681.72 --> 682.32] All right. +[682.42 --> 685.96] Speaking of things that are ridiculous, and this was originally posted on the forum by +[685.96 --> 693.42] Victorious Secret, Apple beats Bose out of their retail and online stores. +[693.68 --> 697.52] Really like the wording of that headline, Victorious Secret, you're a very funny person. +[697.52 --> 702.94] So this comes right on the heels of Apple's acquisition of Beats. +[703.36 --> 705.22] And we actually did double check. +[705.64 --> 712.52] So I did a search for Bose on Apple.com, and I came up with a bunch of routers. +[713.08 --> 714.40] And some servers, I think. +[714.50 --> 715.72] And a telepresence robot. +[716.10 --> 717.74] Oh, that's really expensive. +[717.98 --> 718.20] Yeah. +[718.84 --> 719.00] Yep. +[719.00 --> 719.48] Oh, jeez. +[719.48 --> 722.36] So they have kicked them out. +[722.72 --> 724.22] There's some speculation right now. +[724.22 --> 730.42] A 9to5Mac did go ahead and phone some Apple stores and confirmed that they are no longer +[730.42 --> 731.28] carrying Bose products. +[731.40 --> 733.48] I don't know that that's been rolled out to all stores. +[733.98 --> 738.40] But it is unknown at this time whether this is more to do with Apple's recent acquisition +[738.40 --> 745.26] of Beats and the associated headphones, or more to do with just some general kerfuffling +[745.26 --> 747.76] between Apple and Bose over the last little while. +[747.76 --> 754.28] So there was Bose threatening Beats with a lawsuit over use of their noise cancellation +[754.28 --> 755.10] technology. +[755.62 --> 763.70] And then there was also the NFL deal where Bose is sponsoring the NFL and NFL players, some +[763.70 --> 770.30] of whom have lucrative Beats sponsorship contracts, are not permitted to wear their headphones at +[770.30 --> 771.50] NFL events. +[771.62 --> 775.42] So this was actually another 9to5Mac article that I'll just bring up for you guys. +[775.42 --> 781.64] So 49ers quarterback was fined $10,000 for wearing Beats headphones to a press conference. +[782.26 --> 785.90] He was probably fine with that because he probably got a lot more than that from Beats. +[786.10 --> 790.28] I'm sure that he can work that out with Beats to make sure that he doesn't end up having +[790.28 --> 790.80] to eat that. +[790.86 --> 792.14] But it's still, that sucks. +[792.52 --> 792.70] Yeah. +[792.98 --> 797.34] You know, not that I necessarily think celebrity endorsements are the greatest thing ever when +[797.34 --> 801.30] it comes to, you know, selling headphones that aren't worth what people are paying +[801.30 --> 801.52] for them. +[801.52 --> 804.12] Has celebrity endorsement ever affected a purchase of yours? +[805.18 --> 805.58] Wow. +[805.68 --> 808.96] That is such a great straw poll. +[809.32 --> 810.28] And Twitter blitz. +[810.38 --> 810.74] Guys. +[812.14 --> 812.54] Okay. +[812.80 --> 812.98] Yeah. +[813.14 --> 813.70] Hit us. +[813.70 --> 818.16] And this can include, like, if you're buying, say, I know Kingston does a lot of eSports +[818.16 --> 818.70] sponsorships. +[818.78 --> 822.08] So if you're buying Kingston stuff just because you want to support eSports, that counts. +[822.08 --> 826.40] If you want to support that person specifically, that counts. +[826.54 --> 830.70] Have you ever let a celebrity endorsement affect your purchase decision? +[830.78 --> 831.76] We're not going to do a straw poll. +[831.84 --> 833.14] I want to do this as a Twitter blitz. +[833.28 --> 833.46] Sure. +[833.62 --> 839.04] And I want to move on to the next topic while I think about whether or not I've had a celebrity +[839.04 --> 840.08] endorsement affect something. +[840.16 --> 842.34] Because it's subtle a lot of the time. +[842.70 --> 844.10] You have to really think about it. +[844.30 --> 849.52] If you answer honestly and think about it, you guys, because I suspect more of you, a lot +[849.52 --> 853.64] of you who had an initial knee-jerk reaction, no, of course not, have probably had it affect +[853.64 --> 854.78] you, whether you know it or not. +[855.00 --> 862.04] I haven't knee-jerk purchased something because of one, but I have definitely paid more attention +[862.04 --> 865.00] and, like, maybe researched something. +[865.62 --> 870.44] Like, if I see something, if I see someone using it, especially different pro gaming +[870.44 --> 873.92] stuff, I could be like, oh, that's an interesting mouse that this guy's using. +[874.00 --> 874.88] Say it's Counter-Strike. +[875.44 --> 878.42] And I'd look into that mouse and try and figure out if there's anything interesting about that +[878.42 --> 881.66] most and then maybe purchase it based on other reviews and stuff. +[881.88 --> 884.70] But I haven't knee-jerk purchased something just because of a celebrity. +[885.00 --> 885.80] You know what? +[886.02 --> 890.38] I'm trying to think of a product that I've purchased based on someone. +[890.52 --> 893.32] And I can't really think of, like, a consumer electronics product. +[893.72 --> 898.50] But I have purchased books based on who wrote the foreword. +[899.28 --> 899.68] Definitely. +[899.96 --> 900.22] I have. +[900.22 --> 905.42] I forget what book I bought because it had a foreword by Steve Wozniak. +[905.92 --> 907.18] And he said it was good. +[907.42 --> 908.12] And so I bought it. +[908.38 --> 909.72] I've done that with books, for sure. +[910.00 --> 911.44] So, yes. +[911.78 --> 915.46] And I don't know if Steve Wozniak counts as a celebrity in the same way that a sports +[915.46 --> 918.82] icon does because the book was, I think it was a business book. +[919.86 --> 922.84] So he would actually know something about that. +[924.04 --> 924.34] Okay. +[924.78 --> 925.90] Because there's two different... +[925.90 --> 926.06] Yeah, I know. +[926.14 --> 926.94] You have a good point. +[926.96 --> 928.60] There's unrelated celebrity endorsement. +[928.60 --> 931.76] I actually recently found out how much... +[931.76 --> 932.88] They were talking about it on the radio. +[933.12 --> 935.60] So my source for this story is... +[936.60 --> 937.56] Shoot. +[937.68 --> 938.52] It's not Team 1040. +[938.96 --> 939.92] TSN 1040. +[940.06 --> 941.06] It's a local radio station. +[941.56 --> 945.90] And they were saying that Kim Kardashian charges a million dollars just to show up for +[945.90 --> 950.84] an endorsement of, like, a makeup product or jeans or grand opening or whatever the thing +[950.84 --> 951.46] happens to be. +[952.00 --> 954.34] She requires six first class plane tickets. +[954.72 --> 958.02] So for her and whoever she wants to bring with her, they need ground security. +[958.02 --> 960.24] They need first class accommodations. +[960.80 --> 963.28] And I forget what some of the other requirements are. +[963.66 --> 966.44] But you know what's funny is I found... +[966.44 --> 970.70] I figured out that for things like, you know, NVIDIA Mod 24, I don't think we've been charging +[970.70 --> 971.08] enough. +[971.42 --> 975.66] Because I did a rough calculation and I kind of went, okay, Kim Kardashian's Twitter followers, +[976.14 --> 980.72] my Twitter followers, Kim Kardashian a million dollars, and how much I charge for things. +[980.76 --> 981.56] And I went, shoot. +[981.56 --> 983.22] I should be charging way more for stuff. +[983.34 --> 985.56] Because if Kim Kardashian's worth a million dollars... +[985.56 --> 986.62] Anyway. +[986.82 --> 987.58] That's pretty funny. +[987.70 --> 988.62] Sort of unrelated. +[988.82 --> 990.32] Let's go ahead and start doing that Twitter blitz. +[990.40 --> 996.22] Because I think I figured out that, yes, I have purchased books based on four words... +[996.22 --> 997.24] I didn't even think about books. +[997.42 --> 998.40] I've even done... +[998.40 --> 1000.04] I've looked up different people's book lists. +[1000.24 --> 1002.14] Like, I have Elon Musk's book list. +[1002.64 --> 1004.86] And I've bought certain things off of his book list. +[1005.38 --> 1007.52] So I've, like, definitely done that. +[1007.60 --> 1008.64] I didn't think about books at all. +[1008.64 --> 1012.64] I don't think buying a 780 Ti after our review counts. +[1013.00 --> 1013.08] No. +[1013.20 --> 1015.92] Because we're not endorsing the product in any official way. +[1016.00 --> 1016.68] Yeah, that's a review. +[1016.74 --> 1017.88] That's a review, not an endorsement. +[1017.88 --> 1020.92] We're talking about, like, if you saw someone wearing something. +[1021.28 --> 1021.50] Yeah. +[1022.56 --> 1022.96] Alright. +[1023.30 --> 1027.06] If we were wearing a 780 as, like, a necklace? +[1027.90 --> 1028.10] Oh. +[1028.48 --> 1028.80] Alright. +[1029.10 --> 1029.82] I think... +[1029.82 --> 1030.24] No, that makes no sense. +[1030.34 --> 1030.82] Here we go. +[1031.36 --> 1032.80] Josh says, of course. +[1032.94 --> 1034.72] Started with Nike Air Jordans. +[1035.14 --> 1037.98] I'm sure that specific one goes for quite a few people. +[1038.00 --> 1038.74] I think so. +[1038.94 --> 1039.08] Yeah. +[1039.32 --> 1039.92] That and Beats. +[1040.12 --> 1040.54] I think it will be a lot. +[1040.54 --> 1044.28] Kiko says, I buy based on the company, not the person advertising the product. +[1044.36 --> 1045.54] I'm a big celebrity person. +[1046.20 --> 1051.28] I'm just trying to think, did Happy Gilmore affect my subway purchasing patterns? +[1051.76 --> 1054.20] That's more of a product placement than a celebrity endorsement. +[1054.20 --> 1058.82] But he does do a celebrity endorsement within the movie as Happy. +[1059.20 --> 1060.00] I don't know. +[1060.30 --> 1060.66] That's... +[1060.66 --> 1062.76] It's like endorse-ception. +[1062.76 --> 1065.30] Uh, when I was younger, didn't know any better. +[1065.72 --> 1067.28] Example, uh, player boots. +[1067.42 --> 1068.26] Oh, crap. +[1068.26 --> 1068.48] That's interesting. +[1068.72 --> 1069.08] Yes. +[1069.38 --> 1074.86] I have not actually bought one based on this, but I have shopped for badminton rackets based +[1074.86 --> 1075.92] on who uses the racket. +[1076.12 --> 1076.50] Interesting. +[1076.74 --> 1080.38] I have not done that with sports gear, but I do definitely know a lot of people that have. +[1080.66 --> 1083.32] Alan says, no, my money is too precious to waste on esports. +[1083.48 --> 1084.86] Yeah, but we're talking about everything here. +[1085.12 --> 1085.30] Yeah. +[1085.30 --> 1088.50] Joshua says, yes, I bought something because you endorsed it before. +[1089.54 --> 1090.78] Palm says, no. +[1091.78 --> 1095.30] CJ says, if you count yourself, then yes, I got a 1M8 because of your review. +[1095.38 --> 1096.14] Again, review. +[1096.48 --> 1098.18] I was not paid to endorse it. +[1098.50 --> 1100.68] In fact, HTC's never paid us anything. +[1101.32 --> 1103.14] Yeah, we've never done a paid deal with them. +[1103.30 --> 1103.96] Reviews don't count. +[1104.50 --> 1104.62] Yeah. +[1106.22 --> 1106.62] Definitely. +[1106.84 --> 1109.52] I didn't know what Be Quiet was until I saw them as a sponsor of Dignitas. +[1109.72 --> 1110.08] There you go. +[1110.12 --> 1110.70] There you go. +[1110.88 --> 1111.56] There's a good one. +[1111.56 --> 1114.28] And we're not talking specifically about esports, though. +[1114.48 --> 1114.60] Yeah. +[1114.60 --> 1117.18] I just wanted to make sure that everyone knows they're included. +[1118.76 --> 1119.20] Interesting. +[1119.78 --> 1126.12] Does it count as a celebrity endorsement if they actually buy the product and wear it? +[1126.76 --> 1130.14] I think in the context of when I was asking the question, no. +[1130.30 --> 1130.60] No. +[1131.40 --> 1137.04] But that would still be a public figure influencing your purchasing decision. +[1137.12 --> 1139.76] And that would probably influence my purchasing decision more. +[1139.76 --> 1141.44] There's actually quite a few people. +[1141.54 --> 1147.38] Here's three in a row saying that, yes, they have purchased something because we talked +[1147.38 --> 1148.74] about it or endorsed it in some way. +[1149.46 --> 1151.46] Duncan says, does subscribing to someone on Twitch count? +[1151.52 --> 1152.32] No, I don't think so. +[1152.40 --> 1154.26] That's more like just paying that person. +[1154.46 --> 1154.56] Yeah. +[1156.00 --> 1156.44] Wow. +[1156.92 --> 1157.32] Interesting. +[1158.36 --> 1162.14] Nox says, reviews and user feedback versus celebrity. +[1162.14 --> 1165.48] Yeah, I've used celebrity endorsement to go look for reviews and user feedback. +[1165.72 --> 1165.98] Right. +[1165.98 --> 1167.88] I haven't knee-jerk purchased something, though. +[1167.88 --> 1170.12] Interesting. +[1170.50 --> 1170.96] Yeah, really. +[1171.12 --> 1173.32] Thank you guys very much for your comments on that. +[1173.38 --> 1178.50] That was actually very, very interesting to see more than anything else how many of you +[1178.50 --> 1179.50] were honest about it. +[1179.72 --> 1180.30] Mm-hmm. +[1180.36 --> 1182.66] Because it, I'm just trying to think. +[1182.76 --> 1186.50] Like, some celebrity endorsements have stood out to me a lot more than others. +[1186.50 --> 1193.18] Like, shoot, that guy who did the stupid Subway commercials with the silly voice. +[1193.74 --> 1194.86] Subway, eat fresh! +[1195.06 --> 1196.00] I can't remember his guy. +[1196.08 --> 1198.64] He used to do like silly movies, like Pauly Shore style crap. +[1198.66 --> 1200.02] I don't really watch TV ever, so I have no idea. +[1200.18 --> 1200.78] Yeah, I can't remember. +[1200.90 --> 1201.56] It stood out to me. +[1201.66 --> 1203.46] Definitely didn't buy more Subway because of it. +[1203.46 --> 1209.54] Um, I think the first time I tried Quiznos was after they did the Toasted Taste Better campaign +[1209.54 --> 1210.34] with Don Cherry, though. +[1210.60 --> 1210.80] Really? +[1211.08 --> 1211.50] I think so. +[1211.64 --> 1212.06] I didn't. +[1212.18 --> 1215.20] First time I tasted Quiznos was because I was super hungry and they were their only thing +[1215.20 --> 1215.54] in range. +[1215.94 --> 1216.64] I like Quiznos. +[1216.82 --> 1219.08] Not because Don Cherry endorses it, but, uh... +[1219.08 --> 1220.42] I find you get more with Subway. +[1221.08 --> 1221.40] You do. +[1221.40 --> 1222.00] I don't know if that's right. +[1222.06 --> 1222.20] Yeah. +[1222.30 --> 1224.76] I like the taste of Quiznos, but Subway's a much better value. +[1224.98 --> 1225.16] Yeah. +[1225.16 --> 1229.84] All right, this was originally posted by Svinsperibu. +[1230.80 --> 1231.66] Whatever, I don't care. +[1232.12 --> 1233.58] Um, I tried, man. +[1234.10 --> 1234.50] All right. +[1234.64 --> 1238.64] Ars Technica and BBC.com and Tech Report have all had... +[1238.64 --> 1242.40] Oh, I love Scott Lawson, so we're going to pull up his article on this. +[1243.02 --> 1244.98] But this is really interesting. +[1244.98 --> 1256.38] IBM pays Global Foundry's $1.5 billion to take over their cash sink of a chip foundry business. +[1256.82 --> 1258.80] So here's the article on Tech Report. +[1259.04 --> 1263.94] There's actually some really interesting information on that one because, um, Cyril, +[1264.08 --> 1272.30] Cyril, excuse me, Cyril brings up that this deal could be subject to as many as 200 regulatory +[1272.30 --> 1278.48] bodies approval worldwide before going through because IBM supplies some chips to governmental +[1278.48 --> 1279.36] agencies. +[1279.72 --> 1280.68] That's actually pretty intense. +[1280.82 --> 1282.52] Yeah, that's, that's incredible. +[1283.02 --> 1288.30] Um, so right, $1.5 billion going to Global Foundry's over the next three years to complete +[1288.30 --> 1288.84] the transfer. +[1288.84 --> 1295.24] IBM continuing their $3 billion committed investment into semiconductor tech research over +[1295.24 --> 1296.18] five years. +[1296.66 --> 1302.24] Global Foundry's will be the main beneficiary of the ongoing research and will acquire thousands +[1302.24 --> 1303.70] of patents as part of the deal. +[1304.30 --> 1308.38] And Global Foundry's is required, presumably, actually, I don't know that they're required +[1308.38 --> 1313.00] to, but they're saying they are going to keep substantially all of the IBM employees and +[1313.00 --> 1319.00] facilities other than one in Broma, Quebec, which IBM will keep and will continue its current +[1319.00 --> 1322.86] mission of developing advanced semiconductor packaging solutions for IBM server and storage +[1322.86 --> 1323.22] products. +[1323.22 --> 1329.44] So IBM intends to keep designing semiconductor products, but they're entering into a 10-year +[1329.44 --> 1335.28] deal for Global Foundry's to produce all of their 22, 14, and 10 nanometer semiconductor +[1335.28 --> 1338.34] products for, I think I said 10 years already. +[1338.56 --> 1338.76] Yeah. +[1339.08 --> 1342.12] I think this is going to be pretty interesting, especially because of Google's recent thing +[1342.12 --> 1343.24] with their red motherboards. +[1343.52 --> 1344.40] Did you read about that? +[1344.64 --> 1345.22] Did not. +[1345.48 --> 1351.82] Um, Google has been basically exclusively Intel for a really long time, but Google is now saying +[1351.82 --> 1354.02] that they want more competition on that realm. +[1354.02 --> 1359.78] So they have set up these new, like, mysterious red motherboards that will work with IBM chips +[1359.78 --> 1363.98] so that they can start shifting so they have a little bit more of a distribution instead +[1363.98 --> 1365.88] of just being almost exclusively Intel. +[1366.36 --> 1366.78] Interesting. +[1366.98 --> 1367.26] Okay. +[1367.42 --> 1372.44] So they're moving more into IBM chips and IBM is moving out of a foundry business, which +[1372.44 --> 1373.68] is an interesting combination. +[1373.80 --> 1376.18] They've already converted their code to be able to work on these new chips. +[1376.18 --> 1380.14] So they're still going to be designing chips for mainframe products and they're still going +[1380.14 --> 1381.84] to be having Global Foundry produce them. +[1381.92 --> 1382.84] So they'll still be selling them. +[1383.04 --> 1389.40] They just are trying to move their business gradually away from lower profitability businesses, +[1389.78 --> 1395.70] things like, say, for example, making laptops, which they sold to Lenovo, making servers, which +[1395.70 --> 1397.38] they also just recently unloaded. +[1397.48 --> 1401.10] And now even making chips is not profitable enough for IBM. +[1401.10 --> 1404.58] They're moving towards cloud and social and that kind of stuff. +[1404.60 --> 1408.60] They're getting very much away from anything that could be anywhere close to consumer. +[1408.84 --> 1408.98] Yeah. +[1409.10 --> 1412.40] Anything physical, tangible, consumer-based. +[1412.72 --> 1412.92] Nah. +[1413.08 --> 1413.52] Nah, man. +[1414.14 --> 1414.70] Forget it. +[1415.20 --> 1415.92] Pretty interesting. +[1416.12 --> 1416.46] All right. +[1416.54 --> 1417.80] This is a pretty quick topic. +[1418.00 --> 1421.26] This is posted by TeresaRee93. +[1421.86 --> 1423.98] This is from 3dprint.com. +[1424.08 --> 1425.74] And we're going to go ahead and pull that up here. +[1426.06 --> 1427.54] Oh, I guess I should put us back in the corner. +[1427.62 --> 1427.80] Yay! +[1427.84 --> 1428.24] We're back! +[1428.30 --> 1428.88] Look at us up here! +[1428.88 --> 1429.20] Woo! +[1429.42 --> 1429.98] Corner party! +[1430.24 --> 1430.76] Corner party! +[1430.76 --> 1431.64] We haven't done a corner party yet. +[1431.64 --> 1432.68] We haven't done a corner party long ago! +[1432.70 --> 1433.00] Yeah! +[1434.28 --> 1434.76] Okay. +[1435.00 --> 1435.28] All right. +[1435.64 --> 1445.44] So two-year sentence handed down to Yoshitomo Imura in Japanese 3d printed gun case. +[1446.20 --> 1452.26] So this was back in May of this year, I believe, that he was originally arrested. +[1453.20 --> 1460.32] But after he was seen test firing a zigzag revolver for which he had 3d printed. +[1460.76 --> 1461.32] Japanese 3d printed gun laws. +[1461.32 --> 1462.32] Japanese 3d printed gun laws. +[1462.32 --> 1463.32] Japanese 3d printed gun laws. +[1463.32 --> 1471.84] But I am surprised to see them crack down this hard on what appears to be the first offense +[1471.84 --> 1472.20] here. +[1472.20 --> 1473.88] I'm not really that surprised. +[1473.88 --> 1478.70] And I'm very surprised that he's like, oh, I'm unaware that there's any laws prohibiting +[1478.70 --> 1479.20] blah, blah, blah, blah. +[1479.24 --> 1480.54] Because he went and fired it as well. +[1480.80 --> 1484.88] And if they have laws strictly against guns in general, like, you really think you're going +[1484.88 --> 1486.48] to just totally get away with this? +[1486.48 --> 1489.26] I'm surprised it was two years. +[1489.38 --> 1492.34] I would have expected the first time around to be more of a slap on the wrist. +[1492.98 --> 1495.16] To, like, slap on the wrist and in state laws? +[1495.64 --> 1498.46] And then make sure that it's super clear. +[1498.70 --> 1501.82] And then beyond that, it's like, okay, look, you guys knew at this point. +[1502.08 --> 1503.44] So, too bad. +[1503.50 --> 1504.18] Yeah, that's not a bad point. +[1504.18 --> 1507.48] I just think it's kind of silly that he's like, oh, yeah, I had no idea. +[1507.58 --> 1508.32] This was illegal. +[1508.56 --> 1509.42] It's like, yeah, okay. +[1510.82 --> 1513.04] You must have known at some level you were going to get in trouble. +[1513.88 --> 1519.28] Yeah, I think he probably also underestimated how much trouble he was going to get into. +[1519.44 --> 1525.54] It seems like one of those things where some leniency, well, I guess you have to decide. +[1525.78 --> 1530.74] Do you give some leniency and then, you know, just hope that others following don't expect +[1530.74 --> 1535.38] any leniency or do you just crack down on it super hard, make international news, here +[1535.38 --> 1540.34] we are talking about it, and make it really clear that, no, we are controlling guns. +[1540.56 --> 1543.18] That means guns you make yourself, guns other people make for you. +[1543.20 --> 1544.80] Because it's not like you couldn't make a gun before. +[1545.06 --> 1545.26] No. +[1545.54 --> 1547.40] And it's not like that wasn't illegal. +[1547.90 --> 1549.88] So, in places where... +[1549.88 --> 1551.40] It's just a different form of manufacturing. +[1551.84 --> 1554.46] Yeah, it's just a different way of making your own gun. +[1554.52 --> 1556.00] That doesn't make it any different, really. +[1556.18 --> 1557.12] People make guns in prison. +[1557.90 --> 1558.36] It's doable. +[1560.74 --> 1566.22] All right, speaking of making guns in prison, this was posted by Ty Lightning, and the original +[1566.22 --> 1569.54] article is from PCGamer.com. +[1570.04 --> 1576.16] Far Cry 4 Season Pass offers new missions and a PvP mode. +[1576.30 --> 1583.36] Now, it has been pointed out by a Ubisoft employee who shall remain nameless, who was like, +[1583.36 --> 1589.68] Yo, dog, I can't believe you posted, you know, that inflammatory link on your Facebook. +[1589.68 --> 1594.88] Because it's just the one mode that is DLC. +[1595.22 --> 1601.06] You will actually still have access to general PvP multiplayer. +[1601.46 --> 1603.46] It's just the overrun mode. +[1603.46 --> 1607.94] So, you team up in this PvP mode and control a series of neutral locations. +[1608.26 --> 1611.86] So, yeah, it's just a territory control mode. +[1612.26 --> 1612.82] Which... +[1612.82 --> 1614.08] The one I would have liked the most. +[1614.08 --> 1617.82] So, like, the one that will probably be fun in the context of Assassin's Creed. +[1617.96 --> 1618.74] And the one that... +[1618.74 --> 1619.22] Far Cry 4. +[1619.54 --> 1620.20] Excuse me. +[1620.26 --> 1621.20] Yeah, Far Cry 4. +[1621.42 --> 1625.62] And the one that is included in every other game ever. +[1625.62 --> 1627.56] And my response to that... +[1627.56 --> 1629.76] I didn't reply to the email, but I'm going to respond to it now. +[1629.82 --> 1631.88] My response to that is... +[1631.88 --> 1632.96] It should be inflammatory. +[1633.76 --> 1640.88] Ubisoft should be torn a new one for turning something that was already included with every other game ever +[1640.88 --> 1643.68] into something that's a launch day DLC. +[1644.24 --> 1645.80] The Season's Pass goes for $30. +[1646.20 --> 1646.62] Includes... +[1647.30 --> 1647.80] What is it? +[1647.84 --> 1651.62] I think it's maps and story crap. +[1651.78 --> 1652.72] Yeah, five missions. +[1652.72 --> 1655.96] And, uh, apparently Yetis. +[1656.82 --> 1657.74] Value of the Yetis. +[1657.88 --> 1661.10] So you've crashed in a blah blah blah with single player and co-op options. +[1661.38 --> 1663.56] It looks like it's just a survival mode. +[1664.00 --> 1666.72] You know, I think Left 4 Dead 2 had that. +[1667.22 --> 1667.84] You know. +[1668.72 --> 1669.64] Much cheaper game. +[1669.70 --> 1670.40] Maybe go get that one. +[1670.58 --> 1670.78] Yeah. +[1670.94 --> 1673.50] Actually, I feel I should play some Left 4 Dead. +[1673.84 --> 1674.90] It's been a long time. +[1675.22 --> 1675.66] It's good. +[1675.86 --> 1677.20] And it's, like, really, really cheap now. +[1677.24 --> 1679.74] So, between the cost of the game and the Season's Pass, +[1679.74 --> 1684.92] which includes enough content that I guess you could say it justifies the $30 price tag, +[1685.00 --> 1685.98] but you could also say... +[1685.98 --> 1686.92] But it doesn't justify its own existence. +[1687.02 --> 1693.20] This was a lot of stuff that was produced for the sole purpose of selling it to you on launch day +[1693.20 --> 1695.34] so that you could pay a higher sticker price for the game. +[1695.58 --> 1695.72] Yeah. +[1695.72 --> 1697.04] We discussed this last week. +[1697.08 --> 1697.80] You weren't here for this. +[1697.88 --> 1699.62] But we discussed, based on inflation, +[1700.06 --> 1705.94] based on the increased general number of man or woman hours that goes into making a game, +[1706.06 --> 1710.34] is $90 actually an unfair amount to ask, given that there were SNES games, $60? +[1710.56 --> 1712.34] There's more metrics to look at than that. +[1712.48 --> 1712.84] I know. +[1713.24 --> 1714.46] There's a lot more to look at than that. +[1714.68 --> 1717.92] But let's just go pure inflation, okay? +[1718.34 --> 1719.50] A game should be $75. +[1720.50 --> 1720.94] That's not fair. +[1721.48 --> 1722.78] It's not fair, but it's reality. +[1722.78 --> 1725.02] Digital distribution is a lot cheaper than physical distribution. +[1725.12 --> 1726.40] Digital distribution is cheaper. +[1726.58 --> 1728.56] There's also a massive amount of more customers. +[1728.70 --> 1729.64] Which isn't the point. +[1729.86 --> 1730.66] Like, ridiculous degree amount of more customers. +[1730.66 --> 1731.54] That's not really the point. +[1731.76 --> 1732.74] But you're looking at your sales. +[1733.00 --> 1735.66] Bananas don't go down in price because... +[1735.66 --> 1736.66] Bananas are a physical item. +[1736.78 --> 1737.64] These aren't a physical item. +[1737.72 --> 1739.38] Yes, bananas are a physical item. +[1740.28 --> 1741.88] You could give someone a digital banana. +[1741.88 --> 1742.22] Okay. +[1742.90 --> 1745.72] It's rarely to do with the cost of making something. +[1746.08 --> 1749.10] It's always to do with the value that the customer gets from it. +[1749.18 --> 1750.16] That's how things are priced. +[1750.60 --> 1752.10] Unless they're commodity items. +[1752.10 --> 1752.60] But not digital things. +[1752.60 --> 1754.40] And I would argue a game is not a commodity item. +[1754.74 --> 1755.94] Not digital things, necessarily. +[1755.96 --> 1756.18] Why not? +[1756.30 --> 1757.82] That's why movies are... +[1757.82 --> 1763.58] If one person was viewing a movie digitally, it would cost the cost of creating that movie. +[1763.98 --> 1764.28] Yes. +[1764.82 --> 1767.86] How many people you're able to sell it to is part of a sales metric. +[1768.02 --> 1769.08] Yeah, but it's not about cost. +[1769.08 --> 1772.66] I think movies are a great example because with the exception of services like Netflix, +[1773.70 --> 1778.70] movies have taken a long time to adapt to, okay, things should cost less because they're digital. +[1778.80 --> 1780.26] They didn't cost any less because they're digital. +[1780.26 --> 1780.76] In fact... +[1780.76 --> 1785.06] They're very well known to be a very slow-moving, crappy industry that Netflix has been like, +[1785.26 --> 1787.14] you guys are idiots, and then taken over. +[1787.90 --> 1788.26] Yes. +[1788.68 --> 1790.54] So, not necessarily a good example. +[1790.74 --> 1794.26] Okay, then we could pull up an example like the billion dollars that... +[1794.26 --> 1798.48] Crap. +[1798.68 --> 1799.14] I'm not sure. +[1799.26 --> 1799.76] League of Legends. +[1799.96 --> 1800.16] Okay. +[1800.30 --> 1800.44] Yeah. +[1800.94 --> 1801.78] We could pull... +[1801.78 --> 1804.84] We could say the example of, you know, the billion dollars that League of Legends makes. +[1804.90 --> 1809.50] They could afford to do a skin for a penny, but they don't because it's about the value +[1809.50 --> 1812.18] that the consumer places on that item, not about the cost of creating it. +[1812.18 --> 1814.44] But they're also not locking game modes. +[1814.70 --> 1815.62] It's a skin. +[1816.44 --> 1816.78] Okay. +[1816.78 --> 1818.62] But they also have heroes that they do lock. +[1819.00 --> 1820.42] But that you can unlock for free. +[1820.56 --> 1820.82] Yeah. +[1821.36 --> 1821.78] So... +[1821.78 --> 1822.92] And aren't that hard to really get. +[1822.92 --> 1823.52] How about this? +[1823.68 --> 1823.96] All right. +[1823.98 --> 1824.20] All right. +[1824.22 --> 1826.92] If anyone from Ubisoft is watching this time around, how about this? +[1827.00 --> 1827.42] Why can't... +[1827.42 --> 1828.70] Why don't you unlock... +[1828.70 --> 1829.82] Why don't you unlock the season... +[1829.82 --> 1830.38] Why don't you find... +[1830.38 --> 1834.58] Make a way to unlock the season's pass if you achieve 90% game completion or something like +[1834.58 --> 1834.78] that? +[1834.92 --> 1835.78] Really interesting. +[1836.32 --> 1837.46] And you can make it difficult. +[1837.70 --> 1841.38] Most of the Ubisoft games are not that easy to 100% because there's usually collectible items +[1841.38 --> 1841.62] and stuff. +[1841.62 --> 1842.54] There's a lot of junk. +[1842.82 --> 1843.12] Oh, yeah. +[1843.54 --> 1844.18] And that's fine. +[1844.32 --> 1850.82] So, for the people who really, really would have used the extra content, okay, you guys +[1850.82 --> 1852.74] can prove to us that you really need it. +[1852.88 --> 1854.56] You could even make it 100% of the game. +[1854.96 --> 1856.90] And you could make it 100% of the game. +[1856.94 --> 1857.92] I think that's a little unfair. +[1858.32 --> 1861.30] Like, I think if they were going to be reasonable about it, it should be something more like an +[1861.30 --> 1862.22] 80% or 90%. +[1862.22 --> 1865.36] Well, if you're going to include challenge modes, then it should be 80% or 90%. +[1865.36 --> 1865.50] Yeah. +[1865.90 --> 1870.92] So, and then, okay, then go ahead and we unlock it automatically for those people. +[1870.92 --> 1874.30] But if you're one of those people who just wants to dink around with this particular +[1874.30 --> 1880.24] thing and, or you just don't feel like doing side missions and you just want to play through +[1880.24 --> 1883.72] the story mission and it's worth the $30 to you, making it an optional upgrade, would +[1883.72 --> 1885.02] gamers feel better about that? +[1885.58 --> 1885.88] I would. +[1886.94 --> 1889.22] I would do it because I like doing that already. +[1889.40 --> 1891.88] I'm a completionist already, no matter how lame that is. +[1892.30 --> 1896.04] So, you know I took my Assassin's Creed save file and 100%ed it and then it corrupted +[1896.04 --> 1896.80] and I was super pissed. +[1897.04 --> 1897.80] Yeah, I do remember that. +[1897.80 --> 1899.22] I did that already anyways. +[1899.22 --> 1902.88] I didn't end up buying really any DLC because once I was done with the game, I was done +[1902.88 --> 1903.30] with the game. +[1904.70 --> 1905.80] So, I don't know. +[1906.26 --> 1908.98] And my crap save file was a major piss off. +[1909.18 --> 1913.16] I probably would have bought DLC if my game didn't craft, but still, I don't know. +[1913.44 --> 1914.20] That would be cool. +[1914.28 --> 1914.78] I would like that. +[1914.84 --> 1918.58] If you buy the season's pass, it's 20% less than all the DLCs individually. +[1919.22 --> 1922.74] Game and pass can be purchased in an all-in-one Far Cry Gold Edition for $90. +[1923.20 --> 1924.48] But it's not necessarily actually cheaper. +[1924.48 --> 1927.34] Which is not a discount over buying the game and buying the DLC separately. +[1928.14 --> 1929.94] It's coming out November 18th. +[1930.12 --> 1932.84] Why do we care if it comes out November 18th? +[1932.90 --> 1936.72] Because you should probably buy it on November 25th when it's $10 or $20 off. +[1937.42 --> 1940.08] And we'll probably have a benchmarking video. +[1940.08 --> 1943.44] Yeah, that'll happen for sure for Far Cry 4. +[1943.52 --> 1944.28] We've got to make that happen. +[1944.80 --> 1945.24] All right. +[1945.40 --> 1948.28] So, GTX 970 ITX from Gigabyte. +[1948.40 --> 1949.70] This looks freaking amazing. +[1949.72 --> 1950.18] Yes, it does. +[1950.24 --> 1951.64] Posted by Rask on the forum. +[1951.76 --> 1953.82] Original articles from Tom's Hardware.com. +[1953.88 --> 1954.80] I'm going to go ahead and load that up. +[1954.84 --> 1958.10] You want to tell them about this freaking miracle of a little graphics card here? +[1958.16 --> 1961.26] So, apparently, it's going to be running colder than the reference card. +[1961.36 --> 1965.78] It's actually going to be running at 62 degrees Celsius instead of 76 degrees Celsius during +[1965.78 --> 1969.80] a Metro Last Light benchmark, which is sick considering it is smaller. +[1970.18 --> 1971.38] It is ITX size. +[1971.50 --> 1974.12] So, it's similar to the old, what was it, 670? +[1975.24 --> 1976.04] Oh, yeah. +[1976.14 --> 1983.36] I think both ASUS and MSI did 760 ITX edition cards. +[1983.52 --> 1983.76] Okay, yeah. +[1983.76 --> 1985.22] So, just longer than a slot. +[1985.44 --> 1986.10] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1986.12 --> 1987.40] So, just barely longer. +[1987.50 --> 1991.24] So, you're going to be able to fit it in these tiny little miniature cases, which is great. +[1991.44 --> 1992.22] That's super awesome. +[1992.44 --> 1992.98] Console killers, anyone? +[1992.98 --> 1994.12] Especially because it's a 970. +[1994.12 --> 1997.64] Because 970 are already really good for their value and quite fast. +[1997.80 --> 1999.76] And like you just said, console killers, anyone? +[1999.90 --> 2000.26] For sure. +[2000.34 --> 2004.40] And people that are building these little miniature Steam Machine things, which are just PCs, but +[2004.40 --> 2006.14] they're small and have SteamOS on it. +[2006.16 --> 2009.16] Anyways, this is probably a great card for them. +[2009.56 --> 2010.40] Are we still live? +[2010.82 --> 2011.30] Yeah, why? +[2011.40 --> 2012.96] Okay, I'm having troubles with my... +[2012.96 --> 2013.52] Yeah, yeah, it's all good. +[2015.26 --> 2019.66] Yeah, anyways, it's powered by a single 8-pin PCI Express power connector, which is also +[2019.66 --> 2022.88] great because you don't want to be running a whole ton of cables in these really compact +[2022.88 --> 2023.28] systems. +[2023.28 --> 2024.40] So, it's good to see. +[2024.82 --> 2030.92] Card comes overclocked, running at 1076 MHz base with a boost clock of 1216, which is +[2030.92 --> 2031.74] pretty damn fast. +[2032.20 --> 2036.56] And the VRM circuitry is apparently not all that elaborate and the cooler doesn't look +[2036.56 --> 2038.44] necessarily that amazing either. +[2038.68 --> 2040.72] But it is performing better than the reference one. +[2041.02 --> 2043.16] So, still pretty cool. +[2043.16 --> 2047.76] So, there's not a whole lot to complain about and there's a whole lot to like about this card. +[2047.88 --> 2053.22] Two DVI ports, three DisplayPort interfaces and an HDMI port and it's $330 and it apparently +[2053.22 --> 2054.00] ships early November. +[2054.16 --> 2055.14] So, real freaking soon. +[2055.14 --> 2059.68] Yeah, we've already reached out to Gigabyte about hopefully doing a review of it where +[2059.68 --> 2060.60] we can really see... +[2060.60 --> 2062.98] Because, I mean, it's one thing to say, okay, the temperatures are this. +[2062.98 --> 2063.30] Yeah. +[2063.30 --> 2067.26] But we don't really have any clarification as to like, is that on an open test bench? +[2067.26 --> 2071.16] What about when someone actually tries to build a mini ITX system with this? +[2071.16 --> 2075.70] I would definitely like to investigate that a little bit and find out what's up with that. +[2075.80 --> 2076.30] That'd be really cool. +[2076.40 --> 2077.38] Excited for that card to show up. +[2078.24 --> 2078.60] Yeah. +[2079.04 --> 2083.38] So far, we haven't got a confirmation that we'll be covering it, but I would really like +[2083.38 --> 2083.54] to. +[2084.42 --> 2085.20] All right. +[2085.34 --> 2089.74] So, next up, we've got a Kickstarter for Hoverboards. +[2090.00 --> 2093.14] So, this was originally posted by Liam McShane on the forum. +[2093.26 --> 2095.98] I'm going to go ahead and pull up the Kickstarter page here. +[2096.70 --> 2097.76] Beep-eep-eep-eep-eep-eep-eep-eep. +[2098.76 --> 2099.80] Hendo Hoverboards. +[2099.80 --> 2102.02] The world's first real hoverboard. +[2102.28 --> 2106.82] Does this feel to you like they're actually trying to make a company, or does it seem +[2106.82 --> 2111.54] like they're just trying to cash in on making a flashy video on Kickstarter and having a +[2111.54 --> 2112.94] bunch of people give you money and then... +[2112.94 --> 2114.98] Honestly, that's all that Kickstarter really feels like lately. +[2115.34 --> 2118.96] So, I'm going to be a little bit biased on this one, but over the last little while, +[2119.10 --> 2121.60] Kickstarter's been pretty in the dumps. +[2122.50 --> 2126.16] I was much less enchanted with this than I think a lot of people were. +[2126.16 --> 2128.16] Um... +[2128.68 --> 2129.18] It... +[2129.18 --> 2131.42] I'd be enchanted with this video actually playing. +[2132.16 --> 2132.88] There we go. +[2133.94 --> 2135.38] Doesn't want to skip forward, apparently, though. +[2135.38 --> 2140.68] A really well-shot Kickstarter video is basically like the equivalent of printing money. +[2141.08 --> 2141.12] Yeah. +[2141.12 --> 2143.90] Like, I would be... +[2143.90 --> 2150.12] Like, looking at this video, looking at the way this was shot is, uh... +[2150.12 --> 2151.56] This wasn't cheap. +[2152.10 --> 2152.50] No. +[2153.34 --> 2159.02] It either wasn't cheap or they have, like, a cinematography dork with a lot of really great +[2159.02 --> 2159.62] equipment on it. +[2159.62 --> 2160.90] I thought it was funny how he... +[2160.90 --> 2163.00] Did you see when the kid was running the thing over? +[2163.06 --> 2164.50] It was all over different things of metal? +[2164.86 --> 2165.18] Yeah. +[2165.18 --> 2165.22] Yeah. +[2165.50 --> 2166.70] Players and... +[2166.70 --> 2173.10] So, the way this tech works, it seems very magnificent when you consider that, holy crap, +[2173.18 --> 2173.84] they've got a hoverboard. +[2173.90 --> 2174.34] Look at this. +[2174.64 --> 2175.84] Wow, he's on a hoverboard. +[2176.30 --> 2179.46] Except that the issue is that this hover... +[2179.46 --> 2180.64] Oh, I guess we should probably... +[2180.64 --> 2181.48] We should probably show this. +[2181.82 --> 2185.20] The issue is that this hoverboard only runs on metal. +[2186.18 --> 2186.82] So... +[2186.82 --> 2188.10] Yeah, so it's a metal... +[2188.10 --> 2188.98] It's just magnets. +[2188.98 --> 2189.54] There's nothing there. +[2189.78 --> 2194.38] And I mean, yes, it is still an achievement, because if you've ever taken two magnets with +[2194.38 --> 2199.16] similar poles facing each other and, like, tried to have one of them sit on top of the +[2199.16 --> 2200.36] other one, it ain't that simple. +[2202.34 --> 2205.60] Like, it's cool, but isn't it ten grand to buy a single one? +[2205.76 --> 2207.32] Yeah, it's ten grand to buy a single one. +[2207.32 --> 2212.30] They've already sold all of the individual hoverboards that they've committed to commit. +[2212.44 --> 2215.40] So, does it look like they're trying to create a viable business? +[2215.50 --> 2216.12] Not really. +[2216.12 --> 2218.80] Because they've only committed to producing ten hoverboards. +[2218.90 --> 2222.32] If they were trying to make a business out of making hoverboards, you would think they +[2222.32 --> 2223.84] would want to sell as many of them as possible. +[2224.06 --> 2224.26] Yeah. +[2224.48 --> 2225.36] And that wouldn't be ten. +[2225.96 --> 2230.12] Because the reality of it is, you're not going to be able to ride it anywhere. +[2231.48 --> 2232.64] Like, at all. +[2232.82 --> 2233.58] Like, at all. +[2234.06 --> 2235.98] Because there's no metal in the sidewalk. +[2236.78 --> 2238.24] So you're not going to be marring with fly. +[2238.24 --> 2239.08] Or any skate park. +[2239.18 --> 2244.06] Or, yeah, or over, like, you know, the fountain as you run away from the bullies or whatever. +[2244.06 --> 2244.34] Yeah. +[2244.66 --> 2246.28] So, yeah, very cool. +[2246.64 --> 2247.84] No makes no sense. +[2248.02 --> 2250.94] I don't understand how they managed to raise $350,000. +[2251.34 --> 2255.90] You do get a pretty cool thing for some of the funding tiers. +[2256.04 --> 2260.30] You get this little metal plate with a little white box that uses the same principles to +[2260.30 --> 2261.02] float around on it. +[2261.52 --> 2262.52] That's super cool. +[2262.74 --> 2265.36] But I don't understand why anyone bought a hoverboard for $10,000. +[2265.36 --> 2271.90] Unless they also intend on spending incredible amounts of money to make their own, like, +[2272.04 --> 2272.92] metal skate park. +[2273.06 --> 2273.88] Like, metal skate park. +[2273.96 --> 2275.32] Which would be insanely expensive. +[2275.48 --> 2277.22] Spend $10,000 on a skateboard, maybe. +[2277.54 --> 2278.16] That's what I mean. +[2278.32 --> 2280.82] Like, if you're going all in and you're spending... +[2280.82 --> 2286.20] If you're already super rich, for one, and just intend to make your own entire metal skate +[2286.20 --> 2288.36] park, which can't go wrong in any way. +[2288.60 --> 2289.70] Of course not. +[2290.04 --> 2290.20] Yeah. +[2290.20 --> 2292.40] Um, then, sure. +[2292.88 --> 2294.54] Operation cannot possibly fail. +[2294.64 --> 2294.76] Yeah. +[2295.00 --> 2297.16] Just make a whole metal skate park. +[2297.30 --> 2297.50] Sure. +[2297.82 --> 2301.12] And don't, don't, don't, don't bother getting any grind rails or anything, because that's +[2301.12 --> 2302.22] totally not going to work. +[2302.26 --> 2302.94] Yeah, that won't work. +[2303.82 --> 2305.38] You can grind the board against it. +[2305.54 --> 2306.04] Yeah, yeah. +[2306.14 --> 2307.26] Don't think I'd recommend it. +[2307.32 --> 2309.22] I guess you'll probably have a pretty simple skate park, actually. +[2309.32 --> 2311.64] Just swoop, like they had in the video. +[2311.72 --> 2312.76] That's pretty much all you can do. +[2313.04 --> 2313.24] Yeah. +[2313.24 --> 2316.22] Uh, it happens about an inch off the ground, but I guess you guys saw that in the video. +[2316.54 --> 2317.44] So, there you go. +[2317.50 --> 2319.46] I guess that's all we really have to say about that. +[2319.46 --> 2321.54] At least you don't have to pay for new skateboard wheels. +[2325.18 --> 2330.02] Mind you, you could get a skateboard that does have wheels on it, that you ride as much +[2330.02 --> 2332.64] as you're going to ride this hoverboard, and then you'd never have to pay for new wheels +[2332.64 --> 2333.18] for that either. +[2334.14 --> 2336.06] Since you won't be riding this hoverboard. +[2336.42 --> 2340.04] Uh, I can show you guys a picture of that, uh, GTX 970 ITX now. +[2340.20 --> 2340.60] So, there you go. +[2340.66 --> 2341.32] That's what it looks like. +[2341.60 --> 2343.40] It's small, and it's a GTX 970. +[2343.58 --> 2343.74] Yep. +[2343.86 --> 2347.46] So, that picture's on Tom's hardware, if you wanted to look at it some more. +[2347.72 --> 2349.24] That's share, share ribbon. +[2349.46 --> 2350.48] Right down the middle of the picture. +[2350.62 --> 2351.68] That was, that was super cool. +[2351.76 --> 2352.36] Yeah, I like that. +[2353.12 --> 2353.86] All right. +[2354.08 --> 2355.72] Posted by Solo SDK. +[2356.24 --> 2358.56] This original article is from BGR.com. +[2358.64 --> 2362.24] Apple's 8.8X dominates the benchmarks. +[2362.58 --> 2366.14] I wonder if he's the software development kit for solo things. +[2367.54 --> 2369.22] Uh, sure. +[2369.22 --> 2370.00] All right. +[2370.00 --> 2370.02] All right. +[2370.08 --> 2372.52] So, let's see if this page is going to load at some point. +[2372.60 --> 2375.98] And if it doesn't, then I'll, you'll just have to, uh, you'll just have to count on me +[2375.98 --> 2376.66] to sort of talk about it. +[2376.70 --> 2380.68] Now, Apple's been really cagey about the specs of their A8 chip. +[2380.76 --> 2382.22] I mean, this is pretty typical for them. +[2382.22 --> 2387.04] But it looks like all they were really saying in their event was 40% faster. +[2387.56 --> 2389.60] Which is very typical Apple speak. +[2389.74 --> 2389.92] Yeah. +[2390.08 --> 2392.38] Does things two times as well. +[2395.96 --> 2396.56] Magical. +[2396.70 --> 2398.16] I love the facial expression. +[2398.46 --> 2400.46] Apparently, all Apple people just have duck face. +[2400.60 --> 2402.40] But, like, shifted upwards duck face. +[2402.40 --> 2403.66] Really smug duck face. +[2403.66 --> 2404.38] Hmm. +[2404.98 --> 2405.30] No. +[2405.72 --> 2407.18] It's 40% faster. +[2408.94 --> 2409.34] Revolutionary. +[2410.42 --> 2412.08] We changed everything yet again. +[2414.42 --> 2416.24] We changed everything again. +[2416.86 --> 2420.54] The best part of that is how little has actually changed since the original iPhone. +[2420.78 --> 2420.84] I know. +[2421.14 --> 2421.38] Yeah. +[2422.54 --> 2423.84] Why is this not working? +[2424.00 --> 2425.58] Oh, because you're not plugged into the wall with it? +[2425.60 --> 2426.54] Why was it unplugged? +[2426.54 --> 2426.78] It's okay. +[2426.84 --> 2427.90] You've still got a lot of battery left. +[2428.56 --> 2428.88] Anyway. +[2429.28 --> 2429.76] Is it 11? +[2430.00 --> 2430.26] What? +[2430.50 --> 2430.84] No, no. +[2430.86 --> 2431.34] You got lots. +[2431.46 --> 2431.70] You're good. +[2432.04 --> 2433.46] You got one hour, 10 minutes. +[2433.46 --> 2434.72] It just told me. +[2434.80 --> 2436.50] It gave me a warning saying 11%. +[2436.50 --> 2438.22] And then now it's saying 55%. +[2438.22 --> 2443.14] So, basically, it looks like it's going to be a three core processor. +[2443.28 --> 2445.66] It looks like it runs at something like 1.4 gigahertz. +[2445.74 --> 2446.00] I don't know. +[2446.06 --> 2447.56] That article is not loading for me anymore. +[2447.64 --> 2448.52] And the detail was in there. +[2448.98 --> 2449.46] Ah, yes. +[2449.48 --> 2449.96] Here we go. +[2450.48 --> 2456.42] And it looks like it freaking trashes everything else that Apple has ever released in terms of performance. +[2456.54 --> 2459.48] So, the iPhone 6, which runs the A8. +[2459.48 --> 2468.56] So, we're not seeing the same chip in an iPad and an iPhone product this time around is much, much, much slower. +[2468.70 --> 2476.42] So, the CPU mark rating is 44,000 for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and 73,000 for the iPad Air 2. +[2476.74 --> 2478.38] Looking pretty spiffy. +[2478.52 --> 2480.80] Nothing special about the memory except that, oh, wait. +[2480.92 --> 2483.66] Apple finally put two gigs of RAM in a product. +[2484.62 --> 2485.06] Wow! +[2486.06 --> 2489.38] They've changed everything again by doubling the memory. +[2489.60 --> 2490.38] They changed everything. +[2490.88 --> 2491.66] Specifically RAM. +[2492.28 --> 2493.78] It's, it's, it's, it's, okay. +[2493.84 --> 2495.64] There's a couple things that are interesting to me about this. +[2495.70 --> 2499.14] So, ARM at 1.5 gigahertz, one processor, three cores. +[2499.58 --> 2500.46] Very, very cool stuff. +[2500.80 --> 2511.54] The one interesting thing to me about them finally increasing RAM is because Apple tends to support the iPad products with new OSs for longer than the iPhone products from my experience. +[2511.54 --> 2515.04] Like, my iPad 2 is still getting updates. +[2515.50 --> 2516.98] So, I, I still get iOS 8. +[2517.08 --> 2519.28] How great the experience it is, I mean, yeah, who knows. +[2519.28 --> 2527.08] I also wouldn't be too surprised if people were iteratively updating their tablets less than their phones, which is probably why they're doing that, which makes sense. +[2527.16 --> 2527.30] Yeah. +[2527.30 --> 2528.44] So, okay. +[2528.58 --> 2540.34] So, the only thing that this indicates to me is maybe at some point, whether it's iOS 9 or iOS 10, we are finally going to see the phones move to 2 gig and we're finally going to see some kind of better multitasking experience on iOS. +[2540.72 --> 2540.86] Yeah. +[2540.86 --> 2547.30] Something I brought up in my review that went live last night about iOS is that it's not all about speeds and feeds on this thing. +[2547.40 --> 2551.30] Yes, it only has a gig of RAM, but what multitasking are you doing on iOS anyway? +[2552.06 --> 2555.36] And the management of background resource usage is excellent. +[2555.50 --> 2561.70] That's why you can go to bed with an iPhone on your nightstand and wake up with 2% or 3% of your battery drained. +[2561.70 --> 2566.78] That does not happen on Android because Android doesn't shut down background apps. +[2567.42 --> 2573.82] And if I forget to shut down certain apps, I can have more drain overnight than during the day because throughout the day I'll be like, oh, yeah, I should close things. +[2574.02 --> 2586.58] Yeah, I installed Plex on my 1M8 and I was getting 65 to 70% battery drain just sitting on my pillow from when I wake up until I get home from work, which is at around 8 p.m. +[2586.58 --> 2590.94] I find the camera to be the worst because a lot of times I want to take a quick picture and then go back to what I was doing. +[2591.02 --> 2595.16] So I just press home and I don't close it and just sits there idling in the back and it takes a huge amount of battery. +[2595.50 --> 2596.96] So, yeah, this is all interesting. +[2597.70 --> 2599.74] So the iPad Air 2 crushes the benchmarks. +[2599.94 --> 2600.08] Cool. +[2601.52 --> 2603.22] I guess that's all we really have to say about it. +[2603.86 --> 2604.12] Yeah. +[2604.52 --> 2604.84] Yeah. +[2605.30 --> 2606.14] It's not really. +[2606.36 --> 2606.72] Yay. +[2608.72 --> 2610.02] It did things well. +[2611.24 --> 2612.12] All right. +[2612.12 --> 2619.98] So moving on, 14 nanometer Broadwell E is rumored to enter mass production in Q1 2016. +[2620.42 --> 2622.12] This was posted on the forum by Big Streams. +[2622.88 --> 2624.28] This is a pretty far off rumor. +[2624.68 --> 2624.88] Yeah. +[2625.02 --> 2626.46] So this is a pretty far off rumor. +[2626.66 --> 2637.74] It also indicates something that makes me pretty sad and that's that Broadwell for consumers is going to come significantly before Broadwell for enthusiasts. +[2637.74 --> 2642.10] So we're going back to that whole enthusiasts get things after everyone else. +[2642.50 --> 2642.56] Yeah. +[2642.82 --> 2654.88] Which was unavoidable, I guess, because really this is more of a server enterprise product anyway because it's a Xeon platform. +[2655.20 --> 2659.16] That's where they're doing the bulk of the business with quad channel memory and all that stuff. +[2659.28 --> 2662.34] Enthusiasts just kind of get to also enjoy it. +[2662.56 --> 2662.72] Yeah. +[2662.72 --> 2672.62] And that space moves a lot slower and so, you know, I guess we should be happy it's only a six month lag as opposed to the year that we were seeing before. +[2673.30 --> 2683.20] And at least we're still going to have, so it looks like it's going to be eight and six core options again, support for overclocking with K-series SKUs, Intel Turbo Boost 2.0, up to 20 megabytes of cache. +[2683.20 --> 2687.68] And the power is going to be 140 watts with up to 40 lanes of PCIe 3.0. +[2687.74 --> 2692.42] So I think we're going to see a very, very similar to Haswell E type of product lineup. +[2692.88 --> 2696.30] Eight core, six core, six core with cut down PCIe lanes on the bottom one. +[2696.42 --> 2697.50] But I have no problem with that. +[2697.62 --> 2700.54] Haswell E is a great product, especially the 5820K. +[2700.98 --> 2706.16] And this looks like that plus 10% IPC and better power consumption. +[2706.16 --> 2708.52] So there you go. +[2709.32 --> 2713.16] Actually, 5820K, I think, is not getting enough credit. +[2713.28 --> 2726.68] I see a lot of people really questioning the use of fewer PCIe express lanes on that product, 28 versus 40, and contemplating stepping up to the 5930K, which I don't think makes a ton of sense. +[2727.20 --> 2730.94] Didn't we, have we only theorized about releasing that video or did we actually release it? +[2730.94 --> 2731.86] No, that video's out. +[2731.94 --> 2736.08] The one where we showed SLI scaling with the different CPUs. +[2736.14 --> 2740.10] Unless you're going quad SLI, I can't come up with a reason. +[2740.30 --> 2740.98] Which you probably shouldn't. +[2741.00 --> 2742.06] Which you probably shouldn't. +[2742.30 --> 2746.82] I can't come up with a good reason why you need to buy 5930K or 5820K. +[2746.96 --> 2748.02] There are some things. +[2748.10 --> 2751.72] Okay, if you want to really leverage M.2 storage expansion. +[2751.72 --> 2765.64] So if you want to be plugging an SSD directly into PCIe express, and you want two graphics cards, and you want a 10 gigabit NIC, and you want a RAID card for your other storage array. +[2765.70 --> 2770.22] So you probably shouldn't run quad SLI, and you're probably not running that. +[2770.42 --> 2772.18] Yeah, you're probably not doing all that stuff. +[2772.38 --> 2772.80] You might be. +[2772.80 --> 2775.84] If that were to happen, you might need the PCIe express lanes. +[2776.08 --> 2781.20] But even with 28 lanes, two cards running at 8x8x is only 16 of them. +[2781.38 --> 2782.82] That's still 12 more. +[2783.30 --> 2786.18] So an M.2 SSD, there goes another four. +[2786.46 --> 2788.66] You've still got lots of PCIe express lanes left. +[2788.70 --> 2790.00] So I don't think it's that big of a deal. +[2790.06 --> 2791.84] I think the 5820K makes a ton of sense. +[2793.34 --> 2794.22] All right. +[2794.22 --> 2799.64] So we're expecting pre-engineering samples processors sometime in Q2 2015. +[2800.98 --> 2805.22] And they will continue to use the LGA 2011 V3 X99 platform. +[2806.16 --> 2807.02] That's great news. +[2807.10 --> 2810.26] So we're getting small incremental improvements. +[2811.80 --> 2815.64] The NSA approved Samsung's Galaxy phones for classified work. +[2815.72 --> 2817.60] This was posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[2818.18 --> 2821.20] And let's just go ahead and fire that up here. +[2821.64 --> 2823.68] So I guess there's two ways to read this. +[2823.68 --> 2825.98] Number one is Samsung phones are really secure. +[2826.10 --> 2828.48] Number two is, and this is the tinfoil hat version, +[2828.86 --> 2831.02] Samsung phones are going to tell the NSA everything. +[2831.62 --> 2836.48] Or they're also really not secure because people worry about global keys possibly used by the NSA. +[2836.74 --> 2839.68] So there's like the second tinfoil hat option. +[2840.66 --> 2841.68] But the tinfoil hat options are... +[2842.50 --> 2843.50] I don't think that's it. +[2846.32 --> 2847.50] Come on. +[2847.86 --> 2850.80] It's approved for use by the NSA. +[2851.20 --> 2852.28] For themselves. +[2852.28 --> 2853.88] Not approved for use. +[2854.14 --> 2857.76] Like it's not the NSA signing off on this phone is approved for use for people. +[2857.90 --> 2861.42] I think it's approved for use for all government agencies within... +[2861.42 --> 2861.98] Not all. +[2862.40 --> 2865.64] So it's NSA and there's another specific one that it's approved for. +[2865.82 --> 2866.82] Defense Information Systems Agency. +[2866.82 --> 2868.08] Defense Information Systems Agency. +[2868.08 --> 2872.62] And I suspect once those ones approve it, the others will start to fall very quickly. +[2872.62 --> 2872.80] Yeah. +[2873.16 --> 2874.62] But basically it's what? +[2874.68 --> 2876.42] Is it the Note 4, the Galaxy... +[2876.42 --> 2878.48] It's devices based on the Knox security platform. +[2878.62 --> 2878.72] Right. +[2878.72 --> 2880.22] So all Galaxy. +[2880.40 --> 2889.02] S4, S5, Note 3, Note 4, Note 10.1, 2014 edition, Note Edge, Alpha, Tab S 8.4, Tab S 10.5. +[2889.56 --> 2891.24] And their IPsec VPN service. +[2891.90 --> 2892.12] Yeah. +[2892.24 --> 2893.26] So lots of... +[2893.26 --> 2894.18] Basically encryption. +[2894.52 --> 2895.68] There's a separate... +[2895.68 --> 2896.64] The way Knox works... +[2896.64 --> 2899.84] We've actually talked about it in the past in like an interview with someone from Samsung +[2899.84 --> 2900.18] or something. +[2900.28 --> 2900.38] Yeah. +[2900.52 --> 2905.56] So there's like a separate phone within a phone, like a virtual phone that's secured. +[2905.78 --> 2909.32] And then you can continue to use the device personally with as little security as you +[2909.32 --> 2913.48] want within your own kind of user virtual phone. +[2913.62 --> 2915.06] So it is pretty cool. +[2915.82 --> 2918.92] This is something that Samsung's been working on for a very long time. +[2919.02 --> 2921.46] This was a big part of the story when they first launched the S4. +[2922.24 --> 2923.66] So yeah, I guess... +[2923.66 --> 2928.24] I wouldn't be surprised at all if NSA can easily get into these. +[2929.08 --> 2929.78] I'm not... +[2929.78 --> 2930.48] I'm not just... +[2930.48 --> 2931.00] I wouldn't... +[2931.00 --> 2931.76] Why wouldn't they say Apple? +[2931.92 --> 2935.90] You could tell me the NSA can easily get into my pants and I'd probably believe you. +[2936.00 --> 2936.40] So... +[2936.40 --> 2936.60] Yeah. +[2937.66 --> 2938.44] They probably can. +[2938.98 --> 2941.18] Echolocation, weird audio bouncing off things. +[2941.18 --> 2945.56] They can like form the digital image and recreate skin color based off your face and +[2945.56 --> 2945.96] then... +[2945.96 --> 2946.70] There you go. +[2946.98 --> 2947.78] And they can... +[2947.78 --> 2948.60] Digitally get in your pants. +[2948.74 --> 2949.80] They probably won't enjoy it. +[2949.90 --> 2950.26] So... +[2950.26 --> 2952.16] I guess I'll let them go for that. +[2952.16 --> 2954.48] All right. +[2954.70 --> 2956.68] Oh, now this was something... +[2956.68 --> 2956.82] Okay. +[2956.96 --> 2958.38] So I have a couple things to talk about here. +[2958.66 --> 2959.22] Apple... +[2959.22 --> 2960.78] This was posted by Sam Fisher on the forum. +[2960.86 --> 2962.44] Original articles from Ars Technica. +[2962.66 --> 2964.18] I have a couple things to talk about here. +[2964.26 --> 2973.64] First of all, I did say, mistakenly, that applications will not benefit from 64-bit inherently. +[2973.64 --> 2977.62] And it's mostly to do with architectural improvements in A Fast as Possible. +[2977.62 --> 2983.38] Very recently, there are workloads that will benefit very significantly from 64-bit. +[2983.60 --> 2988.72] I should have phrased it better because most of those workloads aren't something that are +[2988.72 --> 2989.82] going to be a major concern. +[2989.82 --> 2994.04] Things like encryption benefit from 64-bit enormously. +[2994.80 --> 2995.72] But... +[2995.72 --> 3002.60] It doesn't really matter because a phone is already fast enough to handle encryption very, +[3002.74 --> 3003.24] very easily. +[3003.70 --> 3006.48] So yes, incremental power savings, great. +[3006.80 --> 3010.56] Incremental performance in things like, you know, Touch ID recognition. +[3011.08 --> 3011.28] Yes. +[3011.50 --> 3012.60] All very good stuff. +[3012.86 --> 3013.22] Love it. +[3013.40 --> 3013.86] Fantastic. +[3013.86 --> 3019.24] It's just not a big deal when it comes to browsing the internet, typically, unless there's +[3019.24 --> 3019.80] encryption involved. +[3020.10 --> 3021.22] So there's that. +[3021.48 --> 3027.74] And number two is I said I really didn't see how Apple was going to handle smoothly transitioning +[3027.74 --> 3029.40] to 64-bit on their phones. +[3029.80 --> 3031.02] Looks like this is it. +[3031.02 --> 3036.06] Beginning February 2015, App Store submissions must be 64-bit. +[3036.96 --> 3037.44] Boom. +[3038.08 --> 3038.52] So they've... +[3038.52 --> 3039.04] Fish my ass. +[3039.20 --> 3041.74] They've had a 64-bit CPU for a long time. +[3041.74 --> 3044.02] The 5S launched with a 64-bit CPU. +[3044.64 --> 3046.86] But developers have kind of been dragging ass. +[3047.08 --> 3052.18] Although in developers' defense, they did go ahead and release iOS 7. +[3052.60 --> 3056.12] And then they did go ahead and release iOS 8 with two new screen sizes. +[3056.84 --> 3058.44] Apple's never done that before. +[3058.58 --> 3061.92] Two new screen sizes on the phone at the same time. +[3062.16 --> 3063.10] Never done that before. +[3064.22 --> 3064.98] So okay. +[3065.16 --> 3066.02] Yeah, devs have been busy. +[3066.62 --> 3069.86] But now it's going to be mandatory as of February. +[3070.10 --> 3071.18] So that's how they're going to do it. +[3071.18 --> 3076.90] By the time a third generation iPhone with a 64-bit processor launches, it will have been +[3076.90 --> 3080.02] mandatory for six months for your app to be 64-bit. +[3080.16 --> 3083.82] So any updates or any new apps will have to be 64-bit. +[3083.88 --> 3087.08] If you have an app that's on the store and you don't update it for whatever reason, I +[3087.08 --> 3087.76] guess it's still fine. +[3088.02 --> 3089.74] I guess if you don't update it, it'll stay there. +[3090.12 --> 3092.88] But yeah, if you were to deliver an update or do whatever else. +[3092.88 --> 3098.86] Now, to be clear, these 64-bit apps will still have to work on 32-bit devices unless they +[3098.86 --> 3105.12] specifically say that they're compatible only with the 5S, 6, 6+, and then 7 or whatever the +[3105.12 --> 3105.60] case may be. +[3105.60 --> 3111.74] But they will at least be able to take advantage of the performance improvements and whatever +[3111.74 --> 3113.28] else comes along with 64-bit. +[3113.40 --> 3118.30] And there were some examples of non-encryption-based applications that did speed up significantly. +[3118.44 --> 3123.42] Anantek actually did an excellent article looking at just no optimizations at all. +[3123.70 --> 3126.26] Just compile it in 32-bit, compile it in 64-bit. +[3126.52 --> 3128.04] What kind of a performance improvement do you see? +[3128.04 --> 3131.66] And there were some that did quite well and some that even small performance gains are +[3131.66 --> 3135.44] important because it's about more than how fast does that app launch. +[3135.68 --> 3137.88] It's about CPU idle time. +[3138.40 --> 3143.20] So when an app is done being worked on, done being launched, your device isn't really working +[3143.20 --> 3144.00] on it anymore. +[3144.28 --> 3147.56] That's great for battery life, which is great for the mobile experience. +[3147.84 --> 3151.22] So if you can get an extra 10% of battery life on your phone, would you take it? +[3151.32 --> 3151.88] Sure, I would. +[3153.60 --> 3154.38] Most definitely. +[3154.76 --> 3155.72] Because it all kind of sucks. +[3155.90 --> 3156.68] Yeah, exactly. +[3156.68 --> 3159.86] Battery life is one of the most frustrating things with phones right now. +[3160.02 --> 3160.70] All right. +[3161.86 --> 3168.12] Speaking of frustrating things with phones, G-Skills Phoenix Blade, posted by Big Strooms. +[3168.56 --> 3169.88] Yeah, no, the segue didn't make sense. +[3170.02 --> 3170.16] Don't worry. +[3170.36 --> 3170.96] But original articles. +[3170.96 --> 3171.40] I was trying to think. +[3171.50 --> 3172.50] I was like, maybe there's something. +[3172.68 --> 3175.84] From Guru3D, Tech Report, Tech Power Up, lots of good stuff here. +[3175.90 --> 3178.10] Do you want to cover this one while I pull it up on the screen here? +[3178.16 --> 3181.66] So first of all, it looks absolutely beautiful, but I guess you guys will see that in a moment. +[3181.66 --> 3191.26] It's built on a 480 gigabyte SSD array with speeds up to 2,000 megabytes per second and 240k IOPS. +[3191.46 --> 3192.68] That is so jokes. +[3192.92 --> 3193.40] Megabytes. +[3194.16 --> 3195.32] That's dumb fast. +[3195.72 --> 3196.14] That is dumb. +[3198.22 --> 3200.14] See, because normally you would say stupid fast. +[3200.28 --> 3201.32] That is actually fairly interesting. +[3201.54 --> 3202.54] It's crazy fast. +[3202.54 --> 3211.08] PCIe Gen 2.09x8 trim and SCSI UMAP support, SMART, all that kind of stuff. +[3211.14 --> 3211.70] Three-year warranty. +[3211.86 --> 3212.78] It's going to be $699. +[3213.52 --> 3213.74] Yeah. +[3213.88 --> 3214.68] Which is a lot. +[3214.94 --> 3215.60] 1.46. +[3215.60 --> 3215.74] It's about 48 gig. +[3216.12 --> 3216.52] Sorry? +[3216.70 --> 3217.64] About 48 gig or so? +[3218.34 --> 3219.26] About 46. +[3219.68 --> 3220.04] Okay. +[3220.26 --> 3221.34] Very, very, very close. +[3222.78 --> 3224.46] Did you brain math that? +[3225.04 --> 3225.28] No. +[3225.50 --> 3225.90] You didn't? +[3225.98 --> 3226.18] Okay. +[3226.24 --> 3226.80] No, I read it before. +[3226.96 --> 3227.26] Okay. +[3227.48 --> 3227.74] Okay. +[3228.10 --> 3229.66] I was like, that was pretty quick. +[3229.66 --> 3230.72] I was pretty impressed. +[3231.04 --> 3231.44] No, dog. +[3231.68 --> 3232.42] One random tidbit. +[3232.42 --> 3235.26] People in Germany are incredibly fast at doing math in their head. +[3235.82 --> 3236.14] Anyways. +[3236.36 --> 3237.14] That's what I found. +[3237.26 --> 3237.54] Anyways. +[3237.92 --> 3238.20] So, yeah. +[3238.28 --> 3238.64] Pretty cool. +[3238.70 --> 3239.58] Did you get the picture of it? +[3239.76 --> 3240.12] Yeah, yeah. +[3240.14 --> 3241.06] I had that up for a bit there. +[3241.32 --> 3242.18] Because it does look really funny. +[3242.18 --> 3242.68] Looks badass. +[3242.80 --> 3246.16] It has four SanForce 2281 controllers on it. +[3246.40 --> 3246.64] Yes. +[3246.86 --> 3252.46] It's a quad SSD array behind a PCI Express. +[3252.54 --> 3252.90] What is it? +[3252.96 --> 3254.34] 8X interface, did you say? +[3254.82 --> 3255.18] Yes. +[3255.34 --> 3257.24] That is unfreaking believable. +[3258.42 --> 3260.80] And I think that 9 was a typo in there. +[3260.98 --> 3261.88] Let's go ahead and remove that. +[3262.42 --> 3263.02] So, yeah. +[3263.10 --> 3264.30] That looks fantastic. +[3264.54 --> 3269.02] I guess this is just because LSI slash... +[3269.02 --> 3271.12] Didn't they get sold to like PixArt or something? +[3271.56 --> 3274.52] Like the SanForce unit keeps getting shuffled around. +[3274.64 --> 3276.44] Can't even remember who it belongs to anymore. +[3276.44 --> 3284.10] But the new generation SanForce controller that we saw for the first time over a year ago at Computex? +[3284.98 --> 3285.40] Yeah. +[3285.86 --> 3286.74] Still isn't here. +[3286.74 --> 3298.96] So, this is the closest thing we have is throwing more last generation SanForce controllers on a better bus in RAID operation and then just kind of brute forcing the heck out of it. +[3298.96 --> 3301.56] Everything we have is 2,000 megabytes per second. +[3301.56 --> 3301.98] Yeah. +[3301.98 --> 3302.62] That's all we got. +[3302.72 --> 3305.76] And the fact that it supports trim is very surprising to me. +[3305.98 --> 3307.96] Most RAID controllers don't support trim. +[3307.96 --> 3312.24] In fact, the one that I'm aware of that does do it is Intel's onboard RAID. +[3312.56 --> 3316.50] And other than that, even add in like $60, $70, $800 RAID cards. +[3316.64 --> 3319.64] Most of them don't support passing trim through to SSDs in RAID 0. +[3319.98 --> 3320.56] So... +[3320.56 --> 3321.84] Fascinating. +[3321.84 --> 3323.48] Trim is pretty important, so that's actually pretty cool. +[3324.04 --> 3324.28] All right. +[3324.34 --> 3328.02] The Pirate Bay is endorsing a VPN service, FruitVPN. +[3328.50 --> 3330.02] And it's free for now. +[3330.16 --> 3331.28] So, FruitVPN.com. +[3331.34 --> 3332.90] The original article here was from Torrent Freak. +[3332.94 --> 3336.72] And this was posted by Shalashalaska on the forums. +[3336.72 --> 3338.40] It's probably not free for very long. +[3338.88 --> 3340.58] They've already actually posted about that. +[3340.86 --> 3342.82] It's apparently not a paid spot for one. +[3342.92 --> 3345.38] They're apparently just kind of plug in for friends, which is interesting. +[3345.50 --> 3349.52] And this is not the first VPN that the Pirate Bay has actually plugged on their website before. +[3349.52 --> 3354.12] The last VPN that they plugged ended up monetizing themselves by filling it full of adware, +[3354.50 --> 3356.30] which is what people are a little bit worried about. +[3356.60 --> 3362.20] But they have said that they're angry with the whole commercialization of the VPN business, +[3362.32 --> 3363.52] which is why they created this. +[3363.60 --> 3366.38] They intended for it to be free, at least for a very long time. +[3366.66 --> 3371.50] But with the fact of them gaining 100,000 users in like a week or something, +[3371.94 --> 3375.42] they're like, okay, so maybe not going to be free for all that long. +[3375.72 --> 3379.50] But they are promising that when it is monetized, it will be very cheap. +[3379.52 --> 3383.86] Because there's no real reason why VPNs need to be as expensive as they are. +[3384.08 --> 3388.32] And it takes someone to come in and shake up these industries. +[3388.50 --> 3392.76] I mean, you look at what Blackmagic Design has done to the production industry, +[3393.18 --> 3395.52] where they just kind of go, no, we're going to make it. +[3395.58 --> 3398.54] And then this comes back to our discussion about what is something worth? +[3398.60 --> 3401.40] Is it worth what it costs to make plus a markup? +[3401.46 --> 3404.98] Or is it worth what it's worth to someone minus nothing? +[3404.98 --> 3409.30] And Blackmagic came in with a bit of a different philosophy, +[3409.44 --> 3411.44] where they went, well, it's going to cost us this much to make this thing. +[3411.50 --> 3412.74] Yeah, it's going to be a little bit buggy. +[3412.90 --> 3414.76] The firmware updates might come a little bit slow, +[3414.90 --> 3418.88] but we're going to do our darndest to deliver this thing for you. +[3419.24 --> 3423.32] Versus what the guys like Canon or Sony were content to do, +[3423.32 --> 3427.22] which was build the least good possible thing +[3427.22 --> 3429.38] that is just incrementally better than the last one, +[3429.46 --> 3430.92] charge as much as they possibly can for it, +[3430.94 --> 3434.28] based on how much money they know that people can generate with this equipment, +[3434.40 --> 3436.92] because professionals will just have to pay for it. +[3437.16 --> 3438.88] It's like, what choice do we have? +[3439.08 --> 3440.54] We have to buy studio lights. +[3440.82 --> 3442.26] We need lights to make videos. +[3442.56 --> 3444.96] So however much they charge us for lights, +[3445.00 --> 3448.78] as long as we can generate enough money and make enough videos, +[3448.86 --> 3450.06] we'll find a way to pay for them. +[3450.12 --> 3451.46] Lights are stupid expensive. +[3451.46 --> 3453.52] The ones we use now are actually pretty cheap. +[3453.62 --> 3455.78] These are the house brand B&H ones. +[3456.10 --> 3457.58] But not the Kinos. +[3457.66 --> 3458.86] No, the Kinos are really expensive. +[3459.58 --> 3463.40] So yeah, that's, I guess, pretty much it. +[3463.46 --> 3467.82] So basically their whole thing is they want to make this VPN make sense +[3467.82 --> 3471.12] from how much it actually costs to deliver VPN service to someone +[3471.12 --> 3473.92] and a markup and how much people are paying for it. +[3474.08 --> 3478.36] There is some stuff like if you check if they're even able to go to their website, +[3478.60 --> 3480.10] a lot of the time their website's down. +[3480.20 --> 3481.08] Let's see if it's up right now. +[3481.08 --> 3482.28] Yeah, I just had it up. +[3482.58 --> 3483.04] Okay, cool. +[3483.94 --> 3485.22] It is down a lot of the time. +[3485.58 --> 3488.40] They are a quite new website with all the traffic they've been getting and stuff. +[3488.60 --> 3491.44] They are seen as still quite sketchy by Scam Advisor. +[3491.56 --> 3493.22] Scam Advisor is showing them at 48% +[3493.22 --> 3496.94] and showing that they're a fairly unknown reputation website. +[3497.56 --> 3500.30] There's not a ton known about their company at all. +[3500.84 --> 3501.80] They're still pretty new. +[3501.80 --> 3510.56] Yeah, and they have possibly affiliations with a few other companies like the ISP that they're buying all of their internet from. +[3511.28 --> 3515.28] But those, as far as I know, at this point in time are not necessarily confirmed. +[3515.66 --> 3518.62] So very interesting VPN popping up. +[3518.74 --> 3519.02] We'll see. +[3519.22 --> 3519.88] We'll have to see how it goes. +[3519.88 --> 3523.44] Yeah, the thing about a VPN is you have to at least have some level of trust for them. +[3523.70 --> 3523.90] Yeah. +[3524.30 --> 3526.42] Because all the data is going to be right now. +[3526.96 --> 3527.88] Yeah, but we'll see. +[3528.74 --> 3530.02] Obviously, a lot of people are using them. +[3530.06 --> 3533.30] One complaint that I've seen a lot is that the speed is not very fast. +[3533.30 --> 3537.52] But that's obviously because they just got massively hammered by everyone. +[3537.84 --> 3537.94] Yeah. +[3538.02 --> 3543.84] So I would probably, if it's too frustrating to use now, maybe come back in a while and see how it goes. +[3544.50 --> 3546.26] Because it's going to be too much for them now. +[3546.38 --> 3548.46] That's what I was talking about, like their website being down and stuff. +[3549.00 --> 3549.20] Whoa. +[3549.80 --> 3550.20] Oh, okay. +[3550.20 --> 3553.94] So speaking of Scam Advisor, I brought up our Scam Advisor, LinusTechTips.com. +[3554.20 --> 3555.06] High trust rating. +[3555.16 --> 3556.48] This site looks safe to use. +[3557.06 --> 3559.06] 100% looks safe. +[3559.42 --> 3559.70] Yay! +[3560.38 --> 3560.68] Yay! +[3562.56 --> 3562.88] Cool. +[3563.88 --> 3565.34] LinusTechTips Community Forum. +[3565.52 --> 3566.04] Domain age. +[3566.14 --> 3566.54] Six years. +[3566.64 --> 3567.12] Oh, that's right. +[3567.16 --> 3568.76] Because it used to have that silly blog on it. +[3569.90 --> 3570.70] Owner country. +[3570.80 --> 3571.02] Hidden. +[3571.56 --> 3571.86] Ha ha. +[3572.50 --> 3572.72] Yay. +[3572.72 --> 3573.08] All right. +[3573.26 --> 3574.84] So let's go ahead and go back to... +[3574.84 --> 3576.16] I don't think that application is right. +[3576.26 --> 3576.94] But either way. +[3577.00 --> 3577.32] Yeah. +[3577.42 --> 3577.68] No, no. +[3577.68 --> 3577.96] That's fine. +[3578.06 --> 3578.76] Is that... +[3578.76 --> 3579.84] Oh, I don't actually... +[3579.84 --> 3580.74] Yeah, that's not going to do that. +[3581.04 --> 3581.48] All right. +[3581.60 --> 3582.64] So moving on to... +[3582.64 --> 3584.40] Oh, we should do our sponsor spots. +[3584.48 --> 3584.78] Right. +[3585.24 --> 3590.08] Speaking of learning and learning being awesome, Lynda.com. +[3590.08 --> 3595.74] So you can get a free trial of Lynda.com if you go to Lynda.com slash when show. +[3595.98 --> 3597.08] It's seven days. +[3597.22 --> 3598.48] It's all you can eat. +[3598.78 --> 3601.22] And what would you want to eat, you might ask? +[3601.30 --> 3602.26] Well, knowledge. +[3602.26 --> 3602.32] Knowledge. +[3603.50 --> 3603.82] Yes. +[3603.82 --> 3604.12] Yeah. +[3604.92 --> 3607.42] Lynda.com is actually a fantastic service. +[3607.42 --> 3611.90] They do videos that educate you about whether you want to improve at your hobby or open +[3611.90 --> 3613.74] up new career prospects for yourself. +[3613.84 --> 3615.06] They've got all kinds of great stuff. +[3615.28 --> 3616.26] You can learn photography. +[3616.48 --> 3617.62] You can learn coding. +[3617.94 --> 3618.42] You can learn... +[3619.94 --> 3623.42] I wouldn't even be surprised if they have like needlepoint, but I should probably... +[3624.46 --> 3625.42] I'm just curious. +[3626.72 --> 3627.24] Needlepoint. +[3627.32 --> 3631.28] And just in case you may be wondering, for whatever reason, Scam Advisor says that they're +[3631.28 --> 3632.36] 100% safe. +[3632.58 --> 3632.90] Yeah. +[3633.16 --> 3633.46] Yeah. +[3633.62 --> 3636.72] We're going to validate all of our future sponsors like that. +[3636.72 --> 3638.86] No, Lynda.com is definitely 100% safe. +[3638.94 --> 3640.12] They're a super legit service. +[3640.48 --> 3643.44] We have a couple of people here at Linus Media Group. +[3643.86 --> 3650.04] One of them is right here who used skills they learned on Lynda.com to do their daily +[3650.04 --> 3655.02] jobs so it can lead to gainful employment or even if you just want to get better at something +[3655.02 --> 3656.34] where you're a hobbyist. +[3657.22 --> 3659.70] Unfortunately, videos are... +[3659.70 --> 3659.84] Okay. +[3659.96 --> 3662.86] We don't unfortunately have anything on Needlepoint. +[3663.10 --> 3664.82] Which is probably fine. +[3664.86 --> 3666.04] Which is probably fine. +[3666.04 --> 3668.98] They do have lots and lots of serious courses. +[3668.98 --> 3675.18] So 3D animation, audio, music, business, education, development, video, photography, marketing, +[3675.66 --> 3676.72] just web stuff. +[3677.12 --> 3678.64] Learning about it on Lynda.com is a great way to do it. +[3678.64 --> 3682.38] CAD could even be pretty cool if you want to make your own little 3D printed objects +[3682.38 --> 3683.86] to maybe put in a computer case. +[3683.96 --> 3689.02] I would be amazed if in the next 10 years CAD isn't something that gets taught as part +[3689.02 --> 3693.02] of the mandatory curriculum in school as opposed to something that you can sometimes take as +[3693.02 --> 3694.02] an elective. +[3694.02 --> 3696.40] That would be really interesting because if 3D printers start being in pretty much every +[3696.40 --> 3699.06] home and a day-to-day usage thing. +[3699.06 --> 3700.68] Not even just in the home. +[3700.74 --> 3705.22] If 3D printers are something where you're going to be expected to know how to use one +[3705.22 --> 3708.92] like at a job the way that word processing is today. +[3708.92 --> 3709.50] Right, yeah. +[3709.50 --> 3714.84] I can totally see that being part of a forward-thinking educational curriculum. +[3715.40 --> 3720.30] So being able to learn some things about 3D modeling would be an amazing way to leverage +[3720.30 --> 3720.92] Lynda.com. +[3721.00 --> 3724.76] So guys, Lynda.com slash WAN Show for a free 7-day trial. +[3724.88 --> 3726.02] You can decide if you like it. +[3726.16 --> 3731.00] If you feel like you're learning and it's worth the actually pretty trivial monthly subscription +[3731.00 --> 3732.88] fee, then guys definitely check it out. +[3732.88 --> 3737.80] And our other sponsor today is one that we both feel strongly is pretty awesome. +[3738.08 --> 3739.04] A, they're Canadian. +[3739.58 --> 3741.00] The guy who started it is Canadian. +[3741.14 --> 3741.64] We're Canadian. +[3741.66 --> 3742.20] That's pretty cool. +[3742.32 --> 3743.18] That's pretty cool. +[3743.22 --> 3743.44] We appreciate that. +[3743.56 --> 3747.10] We're fairly, well we're large, but we're a fairly small population country. +[3747.20 --> 3747.48] Yeah. +[3747.68 --> 3751.14] You know, so we get real proud whenever Canada comes up with anything. +[3751.36 --> 3751.50] Yeah. +[3752.68 --> 3754.34] Still holding on to that penicillin. +[3754.64 --> 3759.40] So store.phantom.glass is where you guys can go to check out what we think is pretty much +[3759.40 --> 3761.24] the best screen protector out there. +[3761.32 --> 3767.38] On top of being oleophobic and scratch resistant and shatter resistant and all that stuff that +[3767.38 --> 3770.82] your phone already is, it feels just like your phone already is. +[3770.88 --> 3775.68] All it does is add another layer of the same Gorilla Glass that your phone was already using +[3775.68 --> 3780.12] to make it so not only is it going to resist being scratched by your keys in your pocket, +[3780.52 --> 3784.52] if in the event it does actually get scratched because you drag it across the pavement, +[3784.72 --> 3787.42] you can just peel it right off and replace it just like that. +[3787.70 --> 3792.42] Another cool thing is I actually just RMA'd my HTC One M8 because I had an issue with the lens. +[3792.58 --> 3793.42] They did get back to me. +[3793.50 --> 3794.48] It has all been resolved. +[3794.60 --> 3797.78] So I'm still going through my as a customer RMA experience. +[3797.94 --> 3798.30] Cool. +[3798.58 --> 3798.74] Yeah. +[3798.74 --> 3799.48] That's actually pretty interesting. +[3799.48 --> 3805.50] So I sent that back to them and I was able to remove my phantom glass from it without any issues with it. +[3805.76 --> 3807.46] And I'm going to put that right back on the new one. +[3807.52 --> 3812.10] It is fully removable and it is, I think I can even say this, it is bubble proof. +[3812.96 --> 3814.62] Yeah, I've never seen a bubble on one. +[3814.70 --> 3820.00] It is, you can't get a bubble under the glass because it just magically does itself. +[3820.34 --> 3824.10] I did a review for phantom glass before we ever took them on as a sponsor +[3824.10 --> 3830.82] because I've always been pretty sketched out by cases and screen protectors because they're all... +[3830.82 --> 3831.06] For phones. +[3831.12 --> 3831.74] Cases for phones. +[3832.42 --> 3832.86] Garbage. +[3833.06 --> 3834.12] Cases for phones, yes. +[3834.70 --> 3836.12] They're all junk. +[3836.32 --> 3836.44] Yep. +[3836.44 --> 3841.40] And so having a sponsor or even doing reviews, I reject almost... +[3841.40 --> 3841.84] I don't think... +[3841.84 --> 3842.92] Have we ever done a case review? +[3843.56 --> 3845.00] I think I did an Otterbox once. +[3845.64 --> 3846.88] Yeah, and we destroyed it. +[3846.88 --> 3849.14] I broke it on camera and then they never talked to me again. +[3849.68 --> 3849.88] Yeah. +[3849.96 --> 3852.30] So I don't like phone cases. +[3852.30 --> 3854.00] I think they're all just... +[3854.00 --> 3856.30] Didn't you like partially damage your own phone during that review? +[3856.42 --> 3856.58] Yeah. +[3856.88 --> 3857.14] Yeah. +[3857.44 --> 3859.04] Just for you guys. +[3859.10 --> 3859.32] Yeah. +[3859.40 --> 3860.34] So you could know what's up. +[3860.34 --> 3860.86] I'd remember that. +[3861.08 --> 3861.28] Yeah. +[3861.44 --> 3866.08] So for them, I really wanted to see it work before I was willing to take them on as a +[3866.08 --> 3869.98] sponsor and it does and it's awesome and we both feel strongly that they're cool. +[3870.20 --> 3870.38] They're bros. +[3870.40 --> 3872.30] They're actually going to be sponsoring us for CES. +[3872.66 --> 3872.84] Yeah. +[3872.92 --> 3873.58] That's in the plan. +[3873.94 --> 3874.88] So we have... +[3874.88 --> 3876.58] Are we actually doing my little... +[3876.58 --> 3876.92] Yes. +[3877.18 --> 3879.72] We're going to do it, but we're not going to tell them yet, but it's going to be hilarious. +[3879.80 --> 3879.98] Okay. +[3879.98 --> 3880.26] Okay. +[3880.26 --> 3884.68] The sponsored video we're doing for them is going to be a must watch. +[3885.76 --> 3887.22] A must watch. +[3887.22 --> 3887.44] I'm pretty excited. +[3888.56 --> 3888.84] Okay. +[3889.00 --> 3891.30] I didn't know it was a secret thing, but luckily I didn't say anything. +[3891.34 --> 3891.54] All right. +[3891.58 --> 3894.32] Speaking of must watch, this was posted by Card on the forum. +[3894.48 --> 3899.56] KitGuru.net has an article about how the Titan Z has dropped in price to the point where +[3899.56 --> 3903.30] it might actually even make sense to buy one if you really want a Titan Z. +[3903.30 --> 3906.88] If you really want a Titan Z. +[3907.30 --> 3908.10] Oh man, that's funny. +[3908.34 --> 3912.16] Personally, I'd pick up a couple 970s, but whatever. +[3912.42 --> 3913.34] Yeah, I probably would. +[3913.34 --> 3917.72] If you really want Dat VRAM, it does have six gigs of VRAM per GPU. +[3917.94 --> 3921.80] And with games like Assassin's Creed Unity apparently saying that you need a minimum of two, but we'll +[3921.80 --> 3921.90] get to that later. +[3921.90 --> 3922.60] Which we'll get to later. +[3922.82 --> 3923.06] Yeah. +[3923.66 --> 3925.10] It might make sense. +[3925.10 --> 3927.86] It's down to 900 Great Britain pounds, including that. +[3928.22 --> 3928.86] Now, okay. +[3929.04 --> 3931.32] Again, these are very cherry pick numbers. +[3931.46 --> 3933.86] So 900 was 2300 Great Britain pounds. +[3934.30 --> 3936.26] The EVGA version is apparently 1200. +[3937.48 --> 3941.66] And that particular one, the payload is basically always sold out. +[3941.86 --> 3945.62] So yeah, a little bit cherry pick numbers, but it is much, much, much cheaper than it +[3945.62 --> 3947.38] used to be, which is pretty cool. +[3947.48 --> 3948.94] Although I feel bad if someone bought it. +[3949.28 --> 3950.02] At three grand? +[3950.20 --> 3950.46] Yeah. +[3950.84 --> 3952.38] I would feel terrible. +[3952.38 --> 3954.76] Because it was like 2400 Great Britain pounds. +[3954.76 --> 3957.68] So I think it was more than $5,000 American dollars. +[3957.70 --> 3960.14] In the US, it was three grand MSRP. +[3960.72 --> 3963.24] So yeah. +[3964.90 --> 3965.96] That was pretty rough. +[3966.56 --> 3969.36] Do we want to move on to the full body mouse chair thing? +[3970.14 --> 3970.82] Yeah, let's do that. +[3970.82 --> 3972.36] There's not a ton to talk about. +[3972.84 --> 3973.16] All right. +[3973.18 --> 3975.10] This was posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[3975.38 --> 3975.78] And I don't. +[3975.90 --> 3976.48] Oh my goodness. +[3976.60 --> 3977.42] What is the link? +[3977.68 --> 3979.48] Oh, it's in the forum post. +[3979.58 --> 3979.70] Okay. +[3979.70 --> 3982.12] I'll pull up the video and I'll let you talk about it. +[3982.28 --> 3982.40] Sure. +[3982.40 --> 3982.52] Sure. +[3982.80 --> 3987.50] So apparently, this is a quote from Govert Flint. +[3987.62 --> 3988.84] I hope I said that guy's name right. +[3988.94 --> 3990.96] He's the designer of the dynamic chair. +[3991.60 --> 3994.00] He said, Western society is so over-organized. +[3994.08 --> 3997.78] I found it odd that we create tech that's so efficient that it takes over physical efforts. +[3998.00 --> 4000.06] So we go to fitness centers to create the movements. +[4000.32 --> 4002.84] Which is actually a pretty interesting quote. +[4002.84 --> 4007.80] But the chair that he's created, while interesting, I think is absolutely ridiculous. +[4008.18 --> 4011.56] So you use your feet to click. +[4012.12 --> 4013.16] Use your legs. +[4013.34 --> 4015.38] Like full movement of your legs to be able to click. +[4015.74 --> 4018.04] Use your hip movement to scroll. +[4018.04 --> 4022.46] And then, I'm not even entirely sure how you move the mouse. +[4022.56 --> 4026.68] But as far as I can tell in the video, you like manipulate the mouse with your hands. +[4027.14 --> 4031.14] So this is him, I think, what, left clicking it looks like. +[4032.00 --> 4033.78] So his left foot is up in the air. +[4034.44 --> 4037.82] So he's like, I'm, I'm, it's just ridiculous. +[4038.36 --> 4039.58] How's the video coming along? +[4039.92 --> 4040.56] It's not. +[4041.10 --> 4041.86] Okay, so yeah. +[4042.18 --> 4043.74] So it looks like he's left clicking here. +[4043.86 --> 4045.92] I could be wrong to what he's exactly doing. +[4045.92 --> 4047.94] Because it's ridiculously confusing. +[4048.28 --> 4054.58] But when, when, when like computer peripherals are created by artists as opposed to engineers. +[4054.98 --> 4056.60] Or you end up with solutions like this. +[4056.82 --> 4057.60] Yeah, yeah. +[4057.90 --> 4064.32] So like, I admire his whole idea where, yes, we are making certain things maybe a little bit too efficient. +[4064.54 --> 4067.60] So we're having issues with people aren't moving enough. +[4067.72 --> 4068.30] And it's creating serious issues. +[4068.30 --> 4069.00] People are sedentary. +[4069.00 --> 4070.64] Yes, that's actually a problem. +[4071.12 --> 4076.62] But making something that makes using your computer nigh impossible is not going to solve the problem. +[4076.72 --> 4078.98] Now in his defense, you haven't tried the body mouse. +[4079.30 --> 4080.78] Nigh impossible is a strong statement. +[4083.20 --> 4084.42] We should get one. +[4087.84 --> 4091.04] We already have not enough space here as it is. +[4091.10 --> 4095.36] Really good comment on the Linus Actives board, which I wasn't necessarily going to bring up. +[4095.36 --> 4096.76] But I'm going to go try and find it now. +[4096.76 --> 4098.78] It was like the second or third comment, I think. +[4098.90 --> 4099.24] Let me see. +[4099.58 --> 4100.40] Speaking of not... +[4100.40 --> 4100.58] Second comment. +[4100.98 --> 4101.60] By Zet Zet. +[4101.82 --> 4103.36] I can imagine this with Counter-Strike. +[4103.48 --> 4105.92] You would break every bone in your body in a single match. +[4105.92 --> 4109.82] I'm like, yeah, exactly. +[4110.04 --> 4111.30] It's like burst firing. +[4112.98 --> 4113.92] Firing short bursts. +[4114.78 --> 4121.94] And then because of how it's like kind of attached to you, you kicking out like that, you'd be moving metal with your whole leg the whole time. +[4122.06 --> 4122.46] Sorry. +[4122.46 --> 4122.90] That would be ridiculous. +[4122.90 --> 4127.70] You'd have to be an AWPer because there's no way you could fire something that well. +[4127.78 --> 4133.90] But then the same problem with being an AWPer is you can't aim that well because you'd have to move your scope by being like, no, look here. +[4135.60 --> 4136.44] That's terrible. +[4138.82 --> 4139.26] Ridiculous. +[4139.42 --> 4140.12] I don't know. +[4140.12 --> 4144.64] I admire the idea because sitting for too long is a serious problem. +[4146.00 --> 4148.72] I've been looking into a whole bunch of different solutions for this for a while. +[4149.34 --> 4150.80] So is people like Brandon. +[4151.74 --> 4152.18] Yeah. +[4152.26 --> 4153.58] Well, he's at a standing desk now. +[4154.14 --> 4160.86] And when we have the space for it, I will do some kind of ergonomic improvements for everyone. +[4160.86 --> 4164.04] So we're probably actually the chair review that comes up this weekend. +[4164.28 --> 4167.56] I'm going to look into having chairs of that caliber for everyone. +[4167.86 --> 4168.92] So all that kind of stuff. +[4169.02 --> 4172.08] Speaking of which, this is going to be coming in a couple of weeks. +[4172.10 --> 4174.68] And I actually didn't tell anyone that I was going to tease this at all. +[4174.82 --> 4176.84] But yeah, let's let's talk about it. +[4176.88 --> 4178.48] The decision is pretty much made. +[4178.56 --> 4184.24] I talked to our accountant, who is my wife, about, you know, how we're doing. +[4184.34 --> 4188.54] And we're we're kind of it's it's borderline, but it's it's time. +[4188.54 --> 4190.00] We don't have enough space here. +[4190.00 --> 4191.82] So Linus Media Group will be moving. +[4192.02 --> 4193.42] We're in his office right now. +[4193.54 --> 4196.60] Yeah, we're actually in Nick's office because he had to. +[4196.82 --> 4202.42] We kicked him out of the other one because we have too many people in that room now. +[4202.48 --> 4204.08] And it's just it's gotten kind of ridiculous. +[4204.24 --> 4208.72] I mean, for those of you who watched our studio tour, you'll have seen that our server room is in a bathroom. +[4209.24 --> 4214.14] Yeah, that's because there's literally nowhere else to put it where it won't be too loud to film. +[4214.28 --> 4215.08] It hurts my soul. +[4215.30 --> 4216.56] Yeah, it's it's really bad. +[4216.56 --> 4220.34] So we are going to be doing some kind of a crowdfunding campaign. +[4220.34 --> 4223.26] We're going to put together some really cool stretch goals. +[4223.38 --> 4225.38] We're going to put together some really cool rewards. +[4225.94 --> 4228.58] And that's going to be coming probably sometime in the next couple of weeks. +[4228.58 --> 4229.26] Do you guys have ideas for that? +[4229.32 --> 4229.98] Hit me up on Twitter. +[4230.22 --> 4230.44] Yeah. +[4230.58 --> 4231.46] Luke underscore LFR. +[4231.58 --> 4231.70] Yeah. +[4231.70 --> 4232.34] Not this. +[4232.38 --> 4232.86] Not that. +[4232.98 --> 4233.92] We got to get this fixed. +[4234.04 --> 4234.38] Yeah, we do. +[4234.38 --> 4238.98] Maybe maybe maybe a stretch goal will be to get your Twitter handle fixed on one show. +[4239.62 --> 4240.32] Oh, no. +[4240.32 --> 4242.84] So, yeah, guys, stay tuned for that. +[4242.94 --> 4248.14] We'd love to have your support because we're looking at hopefully moving into a space where +[4248.14 --> 4252.26] we can really continue to develop other channels like Channel Super Fun. +[4252.26 --> 4255.78] I want to add a couple more people, which is part of the reason we need to move because +[4255.78 --> 4260.66] there isn't space for more people here so that we can have the time to do that. +[4260.80 --> 4263.66] I actually have some other ideas for other channels that we want to launch. +[4263.74 --> 4265.92] It's just that we need more resources in order to do it. +[4266.04 --> 4271.50] So rather than looking for, you know, investment or whatever else, we're going to look to the +[4271.50 --> 4272.30] community to. +[4272.58 --> 4274.72] And we have some actually pretty cool ideas. +[4275.04 --> 4275.34] Yeah, we do. +[4275.82 --> 4277.52] Can I tease some of them? +[4278.84 --> 4280.66] No, let's wait till the campaign launches. +[4280.66 --> 4281.70] Let's wait till the campaign launches. +[4281.70 --> 4282.74] There's some pretty cool ideas. +[4282.94 --> 4287.06] And again, if you have ideas, let me know and I'll see about implementing them. +[4288.74 --> 4291.16] Yeah, we have to we have to do something that's feasible. +[4291.64 --> 4293.82] Yeah, we're going to try and have as much fun with it as possible. +[4294.82 --> 4295.80] So there you go. +[4296.00 --> 4296.54] Oh, my God. +[4296.56 --> 4299.40] I just thought of another idea, but I'll keep that bottled for now. +[4301.02 --> 4301.34] OK. +[4301.64 --> 4305.82] Oh, Nick's suggesting that we do a stretched goal of installing one of those full body +[4305.82 --> 4307.02] stupid mice. +[4309.48 --> 4310.36] Oh, no. +[4310.36 --> 4312.04] No, that's not going to be a stretch goal. +[4312.24 --> 4313.00] We're not doing that. +[4313.20 --> 4314.24] We'll make Nick use it. +[4316.98 --> 4317.42] Wrecked. +[4317.68 --> 4318.10] All right. +[4318.20 --> 4321.36] Speaking of things that we could make Nick use that wouldn't bother him. +[4321.44 --> 4326.44] This was posted by PooFoo on the forum and the original articles from CNET.com. +[4327.48 --> 4327.88] What? +[4328.84 --> 4329.84] On screen keyboard. +[4329.84 --> 4335.00] Little tiny micro movements. +[4335.00 --> 4336.94] I have to press this exact key. +[4337.48 --> 4338.04] Oh, man. +[4338.30 --> 4340.40] Oh, that's terrible. +[4340.58 --> 4340.90] All right. +[4341.00 --> 4341.92] Sorry, dynamic chair. +[4341.94 --> 4347.46] Let's move on to lowly DSL poised for gigabit speed boost. +[4347.68 --> 4347.82] Sick. +[4347.82 --> 4352.78] This is pretty exciting because DSL does tend to give you better latencies than cable. +[4353.28 --> 4358.60] And it's been limited in terms of the speeds that they've been able to roll out with current +[4358.60 --> 4359.18] technology. +[4359.34 --> 4361.26] But we could be looking at, what is it, 2016? +[4362.14 --> 4362.34] Yeah. +[4362.34 --> 4364.82] Could arrive in homes in 2016. +[4365.04 --> 4366.96] So there'd need to be new hardware on the ISP level. +[4367.28 --> 4369.84] There'd need to be new hardware on the consumer level. +[4369.88 --> 4370.74] So you'd need a new modem. +[4370.98 --> 4376.28] But we could be looking at up to gigabit speeds through DSL service with one large gotcha, +[4376.46 --> 4378.26] which I know you were about to drop behind. +[4378.42 --> 4379.38] Go ahead with the gotcha. +[4379.48 --> 4384.02] Curve your enthusiasm immediately because to get gigabit speeds, you have to be within +[4384.02 --> 4389.16] 50 meters of the sending building, which is probably not going to be a thing. +[4389.16 --> 4396.04] At 200 meters, which is still pretty rough, but it will have a much, much bigger impact +[4396.04 --> 4399.14] than 50 meters, is going to be 600 megabits per second. +[4399.22 --> 4401.36] So that's a huge downgrade already. +[4401.96 --> 4404.52] So still a lot better. +[4404.82 --> 4404.94] Yeah. +[4405.08 --> 4406.76] Better than nothing. +[4406.92 --> 4407.76] Why don't we say that much? +[4407.90 --> 4408.12] Yes. +[4408.32 --> 4411.40] And should be a lot easier for these guys to deploy than fiber. +[4411.78 --> 4415.34] So you'll probably see it in areas that were not planned for fiber. +[4415.56 --> 4415.74] Yeah. +[4415.80 --> 4417.14] Which is going to be really cool. +[4417.44 --> 4418.86] Because it's over the phone line. +[4418.86 --> 4424.78] So anywhere with a phone line can theoretically get DSL technology at some kind of a speed. +[4425.38 --> 4425.64] So. +[4426.30 --> 4429.22] And even if you're not getting gigabit or even if you're not getting 600 megabits, +[4429.30 --> 4434.74] because you're more than 200 meters out, which is very likely, it should have some sort of a boost. +[4434.84 --> 4436.38] See, look, 8% remaining. +[4436.92 --> 4439.78] But then it says 8 hours and 46 minutes. +[4440.14 --> 4440.34] Cool. +[4441.26 --> 4442.42] Probably needs a reboot. +[4442.60 --> 4443.60] Go Windows. +[4444.24 --> 4444.48] Yeah. +[4444.64 --> 4445.00] Anyways. +[4445.00 --> 4445.74] All right. +[4445.86 --> 4448.90] So let's go ahead and move on to our next topic here. +[4448.92 --> 4450.88] And then now it says 1 hour and 37 minutes. +[4450.96 --> 4451.78] Photo math. +[4451.78 --> 4453.58] Now you were geeking out over this one. +[4453.60 --> 4453.98] Oh, this is awesome. +[4454.02 --> 4455.84] Also posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[4456.04 --> 4458.52] The source is photomath.net. +[4458.52 --> 4465.28] So this is basically going to take needing to keep electronic devices out of exam rooms. +[4465.38 --> 4466.24] So hardcore. +[4466.38 --> 4467.76] To a whole new level. +[4467.82 --> 4468.64] Oh my god. +[4470.54 --> 4472.56] You are now going to be checking your phone at the door. +[4472.66 --> 4474.70] There's no way they're going to let you even have it in the bag of it. +[4474.84 --> 4475.14] Oh, dang it. +[4475.14 --> 4475.82] Because this is insane. +[4476.10 --> 4476.66] Well, whatever. +[4476.66 --> 4477.86] It's cool. +[4477.86 --> 4481.26] Basically, it gives you what kind of looks like a QR code reader. +[4481.60 --> 4484.64] Where there's just like the zone where you have to have the object within. +[4485.04 --> 4485.74] And it's a scanner. +[4486.30 --> 4489.98] So you highlight it over a mathematical equation. +[4490.12 --> 4491.44] So say if it's a textbook or whatever. +[4491.80 --> 4493.50] And it will solve it on the phone. +[4493.64 --> 4494.50] Give you the answer. +[4494.84 --> 4498.10] And then even give you all the steps that it had to do to get to that answer. +[4498.30 --> 4500.40] So that you would be able to get 100% on the question. +[4500.58 --> 4503.76] Which is awesome and horrible at the same time. +[4503.82 --> 4505.38] How is my son going to learn anything? +[4505.96 --> 4506.92] Like think about this. +[4507.36 --> 4508.52] You're going to like studying. +[4508.74 --> 4511.12] If you have a studying area, it's going to have to be a no phone area. +[4511.36 --> 4511.94] Like 100%. +[4511.94 --> 4515.60] Or your son's going to have to actually care about knowledge at all. +[4515.72 --> 4516.42] Which is very likely. +[4516.78 --> 4517.62] And won't do this. +[4518.86 --> 4522.22] One thing that I could see it for if you're actually interested in learning things. +[4522.22 --> 4523.82] Which you probably should be. +[4523.92 --> 4525.26] Is to use it to check your answers. +[4525.66 --> 4525.80] Yep. +[4526.42 --> 4527.16] Because that's cool. +[4527.32 --> 4529.08] And math textbooks won't have all the steps. +[4529.56 --> 4529.78] So if you're confused. +[4529.78 --> 4530.28] Some of them do. +[4530.68 --> 4531.40] But you're right. +[4531.50 --> 4532.34] Not all of them do. +[4532.46 --> 4534.72] And it very likely won't for all questions. +[4534.72 --> 4539.60] And problem sheets from a professor might not necessarily have all the steps. +[4539.70 --> 4542.48] In fact, most of the professors I ever met were phenomenally lazy. +[4542.68 --> 4542.90] Yes. +[4543.04 --> 4545.18] So you'd be lucky if you got an answer sheet at all. +[4545.26 --> 4547.72] So if you're like, man, I can't figure out how to solve this. +[4547.80 --> 4549.18] You might be able to do that for one of them. +[4549.30 --> 4550.00] Get all the steps. +[4550.06 --> 4553.06] And be like, okay, well if I can manipulate this process. +[4553.26 --> 4554.12] I can solve the other ones. +[4554.20 --> 4556.00] I can solve this problem group now. +[4556.06 --> 4556.68] Yes, exactly. +[4556.84 --> 4558.48] So hopefully people are going to use it that way. +[4558.48 --> 4560.10] It doesn't work for everything. +[4560.64 --> 4562.40] Does it have what it works for here? +[4563.62 --> 4566.38] So it's not like every math equation in existence. +[4566.90 --> 4568.54] It's more like stuff like arithmetic. +[4569.60 --> 4571.10] Adding, subtracting, multiplication. +[4571.60 --> 4576.14] Only if it was this simple to point it at like, you know, for Matt's final theorem or whatever. +[4576.14 --> 4579.26] Yeah, that would be fantastic. +[4579.60 --> 4580.58] So I don't know. +[4581.78 --> 4582.14] Arithmetic expressions. +[4582.96 --> 4588.16] So plus, minus, multiplication, division, fractions and decimals, powers and roots, and simple linear equations. +[4588.30 --> 4592.80] I'm actually surprised that it even got to, no, simple linear equations makes sense. +[4593.04 --> 4595.90] So they're constantly adding more features. +[4596.22 --> 4597.36] But that's what they have so far. +[4597.54 --> 4600.86] So as of right now, you're not going to walk into a calculus class and be like, +[4600.94 --> 4605.00] I got my whole page worth of work solved. +[4605.00 --> 4607.28] So not going to happen right now. +[4607.28 --> 4608.16] But I don't know. +[4608.40 --> 4611.44] Someone high up at that company has to be a Windows phone dork. +[4611.88 --> 4614.92] Because it's available for iOS and Windows phone so far. +[4615.08 --> 4615.30] Yeah. +[4615.50 --> 4617.16] And not Android yet. +[4617.16 --> 4619.24] Android is coming, but it's not yet. +[4619.52 --> 4621.62] Which I found that pretty surprising as well. +[4621.88 --> 4624.28] I think this is just a phenomenally cool app though. +[4624.44 --> 4625.00] And I'm super impressed. +[4625.00 --> 4625.52] I think it's awesome. +[4626.18 --> 4627.74] I hope people use it reasonably. +[4628.08 --> 4630.44] I hope people don't use it just to like course through school. +[4631.46 --> 4631.94] Or sorry. +[4632.16 --> 4632.42] Coast. +[4632.56 --> 4633.22] Coast through school. +[4633.32 --> 4633.46] It's okay. +[4633.56 --> 4633.94] I understood. +[4633.94 --> 4634.84] I'm sure they understood. +[4635.00 --> 4636.58] Yeah. +[4636.70 --> 4637.68] But I think people will. +[4639.06 --> 4639.42] Yeah. +[4639.48 --> 4640.10] Of course they will. +[4640.12 --> 4644.18] And one thing, like not to put ideas in people's heads, but one thing I seriously see happening +[4644.18 --> 4647.64] with, especially with how many cell phones people have these days and replacing cell phones +[4647.64 --> 4651.58] and like just having that one that's thrown in the drawer is that they'll like check their +[4651.58 --> 4656.18] cell phone at the door and then have another one in their pocket, which is horrible. +[4656.74 --> 4656.86] Yeah. +[4656.86 --> 4661.98] And when Google Glass-like devices become just looking like glasses. +[4661.98 --> 4662.42] Yes. +[4662.42 --> 4668.18] And people figure out like, I mean, okay, I'm sure it's a matter of time before people figure +[4668.18 --> 4673.96] out, you know, two-way mirror type systems to cover up LEDs and lenses and stuff like +[4673.96 --> 4675.92] that to make it just look like glasses. +[4675.92 --> 4681.76] I mean, and you think about how tech savvy the average TA would be at a typical university. +[4681.76 --> 4683.90] Are they going to recognize every model? +[4684.42 --> 4692.30] Once Samsung, LG, HTC, Google themselves with a Nexus device, you know, Huang Wei or whatever, +[4692.46 --> 4693.88] once they all have glasses. +[4693.88 --> 4695.70] That look just like glasses. +[4696.04 --> 4697.02] How hard is it going to be? +[4697.08 --> 4702.12] And then there was that cool technology that we talked about last week where, um, augmented, +[4702.48 --> 4706.34] augmented reality was going to be done instead of with a screen in front of you by projecting +[4706.34 --> 4707.76] an image into your eyes. +[4708.16 --> 4712.26] So when that hits along with all this other stuff, I don't know what they're going to do. +[4712.26 --> 4714.08] There's some interesting things that might be able to happen. +[4714.32 --> 4719.02] Uh, like if PhotoMath works with different education institutions, maybe they could make it so +[4719.02 --> 4723.76] that if you're on like their, uh, see if that would just be public wifi. +[4723.98 --> 4724.20] Okay. +[4724.30 --> 4725.00] Tell me this. +[4725.22 --> 4725.84] Tell me this. +[4726.90 --> 4732.22] If the guys who are the math geeks already, who are going to do math because they're interested +[4732.22 --> 4733.30] in it and they love it. +[4733.50 --> 4739.94] And if those guys are going to do math anyway, and those are the ones that are really advancing +[4739.94 --> 4743.98] mathematics, do I need to know how to do any of this stuff? +[4743.98 --> 4746.02] Or can I just use an app for my whole life? +[4747.98 --> 4751.06] But you have to make sure like that's, that's the Mozart thing as well. +[4751.06 --> 4755.92] Well, the, the whole, the old Mozart question where it has to be, you have to try everyone. +[4756.40 --> 4756.76] Right. +[4756.84 --> 4760.26] Because without someone kind of getting into math a little bit, maybe they're like, oh, +[4760.28 --> 4761.12] math is stupid, whatever. +[4761.36 --> 4765.54] I just need to be able to do my taxes, which is actually very applicable for quite a few +[4765.54 --> 4765.56] people. +[4765.56 --> 4766.38] Lots of people. +[4766.50 --> 4766.72] Yes. +[4766.72 --> 4772.42] Um, and that's, that's part of the idea where, uh, teachers used to be, and they probably +[4772.42 --> 4772.84] still do. +[4773.02 --> 4775.22] Oh, well you won't always carry a calculator in your pocket. +[4775.36 --> 4778.12] And nowadays everyone's like, lol, of course I do always. +[4778.12 --> 4778.96] Cause it's on my phone. +[4779.08 --> 4779.38] That's right. +[4779.38 --> 4782.30] Um, this could play into that in the future. +[4782.48 --> 4786.82] And that this is another, maybe, maybe they utilize this in education, but then part of +[4786.82 --> 4791.16] higher math is understanding how the fundamentals work so you can understand how higher end +[4791.16 --> 4791.80] concepts work. +[4792.10 --> 4793.40] So I don't know. +[4793.48 --> 4794.68] That's a question for education. +[4794.80 --> 4796.70] I think our education system is terrible right now. +[4796.70 --> 4798.02] So someone should probably figure it out. +[4798.18 --> 4799.50] That isn't me, but. +[4799.92 --> 4801.20] Great tweet from Peanuts for Revenge. +[4801.36 --> 4804.30] Photo math will be a great tool for parents to help their kids with homework. +[4804.54 --> 4804.88] Yeah. +[4804.88 --> 4809.42] So when mom and dad understood this umpteen bazillion years ago, but. +[4809.66 --> 4810.74] And now it's like, what? +[4811.16 --> 4814.78] I could probably barely do long division the first time around if you put a problem in +[4814.78 --> 4815.20] front of me. +[4815.54 --> 4816.80] Once you see it once, you'll be fine. +[4816.88 --> 4818.48] Once I see it once, no problem. +[4818.58 --> 4821.34] So I could use photo math to just be like, oh crap, how do you do that again? +[4821.86 --> 4822.22] Okay. +[4822.54 --> 4824.86] And then you can really explain it to junior. +[4825.14 --> 4827.70] Cause you probably still know it's buried in your head somewhere. +[4828.08 --> 4831.12] So if you can remember like, oh, that's the first three steps. +[4831.16 --> 4831.36] Okay. +[4831.38 --> 4831.80] I got it. +[4831.82 --> 4832.04] Yeah. +[4832.04 --> 4832.40] Yeah. +[4832.40 --> 4832.44] Yeah. +[4832.44 --> 4836.00] It's like, sorry, first, outside, inside, last, right? +[4836.04 --> 4837.90] Like if I don't remember something like that. +[4838.04 --> 4838.36] Yeah. +[4839.02 --> 4840.12] But it's, but it's simple. +[4840.26 --> 4843.32] So if you get that cue, you might be able to remember it and then help your kid out. +[4843.56 --> 4844.66] So yeah, that is actually pretty cool. +[4844.84 --> 4846.00] I think it's a cool app. +[4846.08 --> 4847.14] I think it's a good thing. +[4847.14 --> 4849.50] I just like many good things in life. +[4849.60 --> 4851.06] It's going to be really easy to abuse. +[4851.26 --> 4852.46] I hope people don't abuse it. +[4852.58 --> 4853.52] They will abuse it. +[4853.98 --> 4855.34] You're a good thing in my life. +[4856.32 --> 4857.00] Do you be. +[4859.24 --> 4860.22] Your mom can't call me. +[4860.94 --> 4861.60] All right. +[4861.60 --> 4865.18] So iPhone six catches fire in a man's pocket. +[4865.42 --> 4865.94] Allegedly. +[4866.16 --> 4869.44] This was posted on the forum by Tigron. +[4869.96 --> 4871.44] And I, okay. +[4872.08 --> 4872.38] Now. +[4872.70 --> 4873.98] My, my BS meters. +[4874.20 --> 4875.36] Like, okay. +[4875.36 --> 4879.56] I was about to say, I'm not sure what the liability implications are of us just completely +[4879.56 --> 4881.02] calling BS on this. +[4881.02 --> 4886.32] But my, my BS meter is pretty, pretty going off the charts here. +[4886.32 --> 4892.50] So Arizona man suffers second degree burns when iPhone six bends and catches fire in his pocket. +[4892.86 --> 4893.68] He claims. +[4895.84 --> 4899.92] Said his new iPhone six bent in half and then burst into flames while it was still in his pocket. +[4899.92 --> 4901.90] He was in a penny cab. +[4901.98 --> 4903.98] As his family headed to the football tailgate. +[4904.06 --> 4906.92] They noticed some rickshaw drivers on the street decided to et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. +[4906.92 --> 4914.54] His wife and seven year old son were not thrown out of their seats when the wagon lost its balance and it tipped over. +[4914.66 --> 4915.34] Something, something. +[4915.58 --> 4918.30] And that's when his legs started to get hot and something, something, something. +[4918.30 --> 4920.92] So, so holes that I started noticing almost immediately. +[4921.16 --> 4923.02] One, how is it bent that far? +[4923.06 --> 4925.60] If it's in your pocket, are you kidding me? +[4925.68 --> 4928.28] I think there's a still, still photo of it, which is probably. +[4928.56 --> 4929.74] I can't find it right now. +[4930.00 --> 4930.98] It should be just above this. +[4931.12 --> 4931.32] Isn't it? +[4931.56 --> 4932.76] So here's, here's the picture. +[4932.96 --> 4933.42] I don't know. +[4933.64 --> 4934.66] Is there a still above this? +[4934.78 --> 4935.94] I might have scrolled past it. +[4936.22 --> 4936.94] Oh yeah, there it is. +[4937.16 --> 4937.34] Okay. +[4937.36 --> 4942.84] So unless your leg is broken at that angle, I fail to understand how a phone breaks at that +[4942.84 --> 4943.68] angle in your pocket. +[4944.18 --> 4944.66] Yeah. +[4945.80 --> 4947.76] Like that doesn't make any sense. +[4948.30 --> 4949.28] And then like, okay. +[4949.28 --> 4953.72] So he apparently smashed into the sidebar on the penny cap thing, which is what I think +[4953.72 --> 4954.30] one of those bike. +[4954.48 --> 4957.80] So that's where the story of it getting bent this way comes from, I guess. +[4957.92 --> 4959.80] But then he's like, he's half on half off. +[4959.88 --> 4961.96] So he obviously didn't get like crushed there. +[4961.96 --> 4966.58] And then the weight of his wife and his son continually pressed and continually bent it. +[4966.70 --> 4969.38] He hit it and then must've been half on half off. +[4969.46 --> 4972.26] And then he's like, oh yeah, I laid down to pull it out of my pocket. +[4972.38 --> 4975.20] If it's that bent, laying down is not going to help you. +[4975.72 --> 4976.04] Yeah. +[4976.88 --> 4977.62] Like at all. +[4977.62 --> 4981.42] That and I mean the whole bend gate thing I think is grossly exaggerated. +[4981.70 --> 4983.52] It's not that easy to bend this phone. +[4983.60 --> 4984.24] Is that a 6 plus? +[4984.42 --> 4985.32] This is not a 6 plus. +[4985.44 --> 4985.56] Yeah. +[4985.66 --> 4988.30] The 6 plus is much easier, but this is just a 6, isn't it? +[4988.30 --> 4988.82] This is an iPhone 6. +[4988.90 --> 4989.04] Yeah. +[4989.14 --> 4990.72] So that's the same phone as that one. +[4992.82 --> 4997.70] Like the amount that I believe this is almost non-existent. +[4997.96 --> 4998.10] Yeah. +[4998.10 --> 5002.12] We probably shouldn't even be talking about this other than just to say it's like poopy. +[5002.44 --> 5002.70] Yeah. +[5002.98 --> 5003.52] I don't know. +[5003.52 --> 5005.60] So there we go. +[5006.56 --> 5010.70] We still have Assassin's Creed Unity and all the bullcrap that comes with that. +[5010.90 --> 5011.28] All right. +[5011.34 --> 5011.52] Yeah. +[5011.52 --> 5012.30] Let's talk about this. +[5012.34 --> 5016.18] So this was posted by MindTricks on the forum and the source is blog.ubi.com. +[5016.26 --> 5017.64] So it's about as official as it gets. +[5018.10 --> 5021.86] And the Assassin's Creed Unity minimum specs are dumb. +[5021.86 --> 5024.38] They are super dumb. +[5024.82 --> 5027.04] They are so dumb that it's just too dumb. +[5027.16 --> 5028.08] They're not dumb awesome. +[5028.36 --> 5029.66] Dumb, dumb, dumb. +[5030.22 --> 5030.66] They're dumb stupid. +[5031.20 --> 5031.42] Okay. +[5031.54 --> 5031.96] So get this. +[5032.02 --> 5032.24] Get this. +[5032.30 --> 5032.52] Get this. +[5032.60 --> 5032.70] Okay. +[5033.20 --> 5033.94] So processor. +[5034.22 --> 5040.04] Minimum required processor is an i5-2500K or an AMD FX 8350. +[5040.18 --> 5041.66] Are you freaking kidding me? +[5041.66 --> 5047.66] Oh, I love that they threw in the Phenom 2 940 because that is so much slower than an i5-2500K +[5048.30 --> 5050.10] that it is not even funny. +[5050.10 --> 5052.96] Like so much slower. +[5053.16 --> 5054.02] Oh, my God. +[5054.20 --> 5055.24] So that's a minimum requirement. +[5055.42 --> 5058.20] And then the recommended requirement is a 3770. +[5058.44 --> 5065.08] Now, the funny thing about this is the 3770 supports more threads than an i5-2500K, but +[5065.08 --> 5069.24] actually is not faster in any meaningful way. +[5069.24 --> 5075.66] Not to mention that they also recommend an FX 8350 when it was a minimum requirement. +[5076.04 --> 5079.40] So why did you need to upgrade your Intel CPU and not your AMD CPU? +[5079.40 --> 5085.56] Unless this engine is heavily threaded, which I call complete BS on. +[5085.60 --> 5087.88] If we get more than three threads, I will be floored. +[5088.02 --> 5088.92] Yeah, I would be surprised. +[5089.06 --> 5091.98] And that i5 has four threads, which is fine. +[5092.18 --> 5097.82] And for that matter, that Phenom X4 has four threads that are super not super duper fast. +[5098.04 --> 5100.12] Minimum system RAM of six gigabytes. +[5100.40 --> 5101.48] Now that I maybe. +[5102.14 --> 5102.98] I can see that. +[5102.98 --> 5104.74] I can see that helping in some way. +[5104.82 --> 5106.18] I don't know that it should be the minimum. +[5106.18 --> 5106.76] Minimum, yeah. +[5107.12 --> 5108.84] The minimums are what are surprising. +[5108.96 --> 5111.60] The recommended, I never really even care what they say for recommended. +[5111.60 --> 5114.82] I think the recommended makes no sense on video card, though. +[5115.16 --> 5116.66] The minimum makes no sense on video card. +[5116.66 --> 5117.28] Minimum makes no sense. +[5117.28 --> 5121.50] Okay, so here's a couple things about the minimum video card spec that make no sense. +[5121.50 --> 5127.08] Number one is that the GTX 680 is a very, very powerful card. +[5127.32 --> 5132.78] And for that to be the minimum to run the game, based on the gamage I've seen so far, is stupid. +[5133.20 --> 5133.50] Pathetic. +[5133.82 --> 5139.20] Also, the GTX 660 Ti is only marginally slower than a GTX 680. +[5139.98 --> 5141.46] So why can't that run it? +[5141.54 --> 5144.86] Why is 680 the cutoff for the minimum? +[5145.02 --> 5146.06] I don't buy it. +[5147.26 --> 5148.20] Okay, number two. +[5148.20 --> 5154.06] And one of the, sorry, I have to clear up why a large part of the recommended I don't really care about, +[5154.32 --> 5156.88] is what is your recommended base off of? +[5157.10 --> 5159.18] Especially with 4K being such a big thing now, +[5159.60 --> 5163.50] to be able to run 4K at fairly high settings at all, +[5163.60 --> 5165.44] you usually do need really powerful systems. +[5165.56 --> 5167.18] So I'm not super surprised that that's happening. +[5167.78 --> 5172.26] All right, so the recommended one is, sorry, did you just talk about recommended? +[5172.38 --> 5172.74] I tuned in. +[5172.98 --> 5175.72] Okay, so the recommended one, I'm okay with that, +[5175.72 --> 5180.58] especially because if the point of this is, look, we're building a game that's going to really, +[5180.74 --> 5182.16] really push the hardware, +[5182.82 --> 5187.12] so we're just going to recommend basically the highest-end thing that exists today, +[5187.58 --> 5189.70] and 780 is pretty darn close. +[5189.80 --> 5194.46] I mean, it's X percent behind 780 Ti and 980 or whatever else, +[5194.48 --> 5195.36] but it's pretty much there. +[5195.52 --> 5197.36] We're just going to recommend the highest-end thing today, +[5197.36 --> 5201.60] and people might even be able to further leverage the game as time goes on. +[5201.60 --> 5205.24] I'm okay with that, but having a minimum requirement of a 680 is ridiculous. +[5205.66 --> 5205.68] Yeah. +[5205.86 --> 5208.38] 50 gigs of space, that's becoming par for the course. +[5208.46 --> 5208.60] Yep. +[5210.36 --> 5212.04] None of the rest of it is really that crazy, +[5212.10 --> 5214.04] except for the supported video cards at time of release. +[5214.06 --> 5215.62] Yeah, this is just stupid. +[5215.70 --> 5217.96] This comes into why the 680 is their minimum, +[5218.22 --> 5223.42] because their supported video cards at time of release is 680 or better, 700 series. +[5223.42 --> 5226.52] And then HD 7970 or better, +[5226.68 --> 5231.58] which is effectively one and a half generations of AMD graphics cards, +[5231.68 --> 5234.48] because most of the R9 series is... +[5234.48 --> 5234.98] Rescan. +[5235.18 --> 5235.42] Yeah. +[5235.78 --> 5236.50] Just... +[5236.50 --> 5237.62] So, like, what? +[5237.70 --> 5239.72] Laptop versions of these cards may work, +[5239.80 --> 5241.08] but are not officially supported. +[5241.18 --> 5246.66] So, basically, the minimum requirement just looks like a pure cop-out laziness thing. +[5247.00 --> 5252.44] We are just not going to bother to validate this game on any graphics cards. +[5252.44 --> 5255.20] We are going to put the onus on the graphics card makers +[5255.20 --> 5259.48] to ensure that their cards are compatible with this game going back a couple of generations. +[5259.62 --> 5264.16] Because, let's face it, if a GTX 680 runs it, a GTX 590 is going to wreck it. +[5265.00 --> 5265.16] Yep. +[5265.16 --> 5265.80] So... +[5265.80 --> 5269.48] Ubisoft... +[5269.48 --> 5269.96] Ridiculous. +[5270.02 --> 5273.08] ...just keeps on digging. +[5273.46 --> 5275.22] They cannot stop digging. +[5275.46 --> 5276.18] Absolutely ridiculous. +[5276.40 --> 5279.32] The 50 gigabytes of hard drive space, I've seen some people freak out about. +[5279.40 --> 5281.24] I don't even care about that, because that's become a norm. +[5281.24 --> 5284.36] And hard drives are pretty cheap. +[5284.60 --> 5286.76] And you should probably be running your games off of hard drives. +[5287.00 --> 5293.46] Speaking of keep on digging, we actually are planning our next t-shirt design. +[5294.16 --> 5300.16] So, I guess I should probably open with an application of some sort or something. +[5300.98 --> 5302.24] Come on, go faster, you... +[5302.24 --> 5302.80] After you... +[5302.80 --> 5307.50] Yeah, we have our next t-shirt design is Ubisoft inspired. +[5308.86 --> 5311.38] Because, okay, interesting thing while you get that open. +[5311.68 --> 5315.60] We were talking before the show started about how it used to be the hate on origin. +[5316.30 --> 5316.92] And hate on EA. +[5317.20 --> 5317.36] Yeah. +[5317.60 --> 5318.24] Hate on origin. +[5318.38 --> 5319.00] Hate on EA. +[5319.18 --> 5319.96] Hate on all of it. +[5320.00 --> 5320.10] Hate on analog. +[5320.26 --> 5321.18] Hate on all that kind of stuff. +[5321.18 --> 5325.24] And then EA seems to have lately been like, whoa, those guys are crazy. +[5325.34 --> 5327.32] Let's just sit back and just see what happens. +[5327.68 --> 5329.46] And they just stopped doing things. +[5329.68 --> 5331.62] No one talks about them because they're not freaking out. +[5331.72 --> 5333.96] And Ubisoft's just throwing dirt around with shovels. +[5334.30 --> 5335.58] So, I don't know. +[5336.12 --> 5336.44] Ridiculous. +[5336.72 --> 5339.52] It's just funny how it used to be the hate on EA show. +[5339.66 --> 5341.26] And now it's kind of the hate on Ubisoft show. +[5341.44 --> 5344.32] Because it's essentially just hate on people that are doing stupid things. +[5344.72 --> 5347.38] When we used to hate on EA, I used to talk about how I liked Ubisoft. +[5347.48 --> 5348.06] Because I did. +[5348.06 --> 5349.66] I liked a lot of the games that they were releasing. +[5349.82 --> 5351.00] I liked a lot of the stuff that they were doing. +[5351.18 --> 5352.76] You have a lot of games in your Uplay account. +[5352.92 --> 5355.06] I was logged into it a little while ago because I was benchmarking. +[5355.98 --> 5357.02] With his permission. +[5357.18 --> 5357.50] Yeah, yeah. +[5357.54 --> 5357.88] It's fine. +[5357.96 --> 5358.22] It's all good. +[5358.84 --> 5359.96] I do. +[5360.10 --> 5362.30] Because I've generally liked a lot of the games that they've released. +[5362.50 --> 5369.10] And it feels like back then they would solely release games that they felt were solid, good games. +[5369.48 --> 5371.20] And that does not seem to be a thing anymore. +[5371.72 --> 5374.82] You've admitted that the first Assassin's Creed wasn't really anything that special. +[5374.82 --> 5379.44] No, but it also seems like the team on the game was trying extremely hard. +[5379.54 --> 5381.66] And they might be trying extremely hard now as well. +[5382.12 --> 5387.24] But that's being cut out of the picture by someone chopping up their results and then just giving you part of it. +[5387.40 --> 5390.08] And then being like, you can kind of get the rest, I guess, later. +[5390.30 --> 5393.12] It's like you get served a pizza and they're like, oh, sorry. +[5393.20 --> 5395.88] We took a quarter of it and left it back there. +[5395.98 --> 5400.18] You can get that as well, I guess, if you give us more money, which wasn't listed originally. +[5400.18 --> 5404.98] Or like if servers were allowed to withhold your food until they got their tip. +[5405.14 --> 5405.94] Like here's your burger. +[5406.40 --> 5408.06] You can get your fries once you pay me your tip. +[5408.54 --> 5408.88] But, you know. +[5409.02 --> 5411.12] Let me know how much the tip's going to be. +[5411.20 --> 5413.72] And we'll find out if you're getting your drink and your fries and your dessert. +[5415.02 --> 5418.56] If you buy your drink and then your fries and then your dessert, it's 20% more. +[5418.64 --> 5421.16] If you buy them all at once, it's 20% less. +[5421.40 --> 5422.50] I'm okay with bundles. +[5422.58 --> 5423.06] They have that. +[5423.12 --> 5423.98] It's called a value meal. +[5423.98 --> 5429.04] But they don't have that in AAA establishments. +[5431.34 --> 5433.56] There's no value meal in like a five-star restaurant. +[5433.84 --> 5434.94] Oh, oh, at a five-star. +[5435.02 --> 5435.56] Okay, sure. +[5435.76 --> 5438.84] Because I was going to say, like somewhere like Red Robin, you could argue they have a value meal. +[5438.84 --> 5440.30] Because you can buy fries. +[5440.80 --> 5442.78] Although you can't buy a burger without fries. +[5442.96 --> 5446.60] But buying a burger with the fries is a better value than just buying lots of fries. +[5447.08 --> 5448.84] Especially because the fries are bottomless anyway. +[5448.84 --> 5451.26] So if you bought lots of fries at Red Robin, you're basically an idiot. +[5451.26 --> 5452.50] See, Red Robin's like the complete opposite. +[5452.68 --> 5452.88] All right. +[5452.96 --> 5453.64] So here it is. +[5453.98 --> 5454.54] Design. +[5455.30 --> 5455.50] Woo. +[5455.84 --> 5458.20] So that's going to be on the front of probably a black shirt. +[5458.80 --> 5461.94] And we're going to launch this, I think, WAN show next week. +[5461.98 --> 5464.08] We'll have the Teespring campaign up. +[5464.20 --> 5464.30] Yeah. +[5464.90 --> 5465.78] I'm getting one of those. +[5465.82 --> 5467.12] It's going to be one of those kind of things. +[5467.22 --> 5469.52] We're not putting a Ubisoft logo all over it or anything. +[5469.62 --> 5471.08] It's going to be more of an inside joke. +[5471.40 --> 5473.26] But I think keep on digging. +[5473.58 --> 5475.46] It's just kind of like, I don't know. +[5475.76 --> 5476.72] It's become a thing. +[5476.72 --> 5477.34] And you know what? +[5477.50 --> 5482.20] If Ubisoft gets out of the Target, if they stop doing stupid things and someone else starts doing stupid things. +[5482.36 --> 5483.30] You can still wear the shirt. +[5483.30 --> 5487.42] If EA starts taking up the mantle again, maybe we'll keep saying keep on digging for them. +[5488.10 --> 5489.02] Currently, they're not. +[5489.12 --> 5491.98] Or if Microsoft does a bunch of really stupid stuff for a bit, then... +[5491.98 --> 5493.48] Which is probably going to happen. +[5493.56 --> 5494.46] It'll happen at some point. +[5494.50 --> 5494.76] Yep. +[5494.76 --> 5496.36] So, yeah. +[5496.58 --> 5497.82] It's more multi-purpose. +[5497.94 --> 5499.70] But for now, it's standing for them. +[5499.78 --> 5500.08] All right. +[5500.14 --> 5502.14] So, this was posted by Amores... +[5502.14 --> 5502.90] Amores? +[5503.56 --> 5504.42] Something of pixels. +[5504.54 --> 5504.74] Anyway. +[5505.18 --> 5507.06] Original articles from Popular Mechanics. +[5507.18 --> 5514.38] And the thread title on the forum, I have to agree with so much, is I have lost faith in humanity or something like that. +[5514.38 --> 5515.38] Officially done with humanity. +[5515.38 --> 5516.38] I wish they were done with humanity. +[5516.38 --> 5517.42] Officially done with humanity. +[5518.68 --> 5521.64] A Comic Sans typewriter has been created. +[5523.14 --> 5524.32] So, there you go. +[5524.42 --> 5525.06] And remember, guys. +[5525.12 --> 5528.48] This is not as simple as just putting Comic Sans on the keys. +[5528.68 --> 5535.94] They actually had to create the metal arms with Comic Sans print on the end so that you could... +[5535.94 --> 5537.12] The sincerity machine. +[5537.78 --> 5539.32] I hadn't even noticed that before. +[5539.32 --> 5545.90] So, if you thought the world needed a Comic Sans typewriter, A, go jump in a fire. +[5546.10 --> 5548.36] And B, there's officially a typewriter for you. +[5548.62 --> 5549.44] You know what the funny thing is? +[5549.46 --> 5551.90] Is I'm making fun of Comic Sans and jump in a fire and all that. +[5552.14 --> 5557.90] I used nothing but Comic Sans pink bold italicized for the entire time that MSN Messenger existed. +[5558.40 --> 5558.80] I know. +[5559.44 --> 5559.68] Yep. +[5560.06 --> 5560.38] Oh, yeah. +[5560.46 --> 5561.58] I used to chat with you on MSN. +[5561.66 --> 5561.90] Yep. +[5562.28 --> 5562.44] Yep. +[5562.64 --> 5563.00] Fuchsia. +[5563.08 --> 5563.24] Sorry. +[5563.50 --> 5563.90] Fuchsia. +[5564.24 --> 5565.06] Comic Sans. +[5565.06 --> 5565.16] Bold italics. +[5565.16 --> 5566.62] Why did they take MSN away? +[5566.88 --> 5567.66] I love MSN. +[5567.78 --> 5568.24] It should come out. +[5568.24 --> 5568.68] Ugh. +[5569.04 --> 5570.36] Speaking of things that... +[5570.36 --> 5572.48] Skype is inferior in so many different ways. +[5572.58 --> 5578.00] The entire internet has blown up over Smash Bros for Wii U. +[5578.00 --> 5578.48] Oh, my God. +[5578.76 --> 5584.76] Nintendo apparently wants to sell 100 bazillion copies of this game because they are making +[5584.76 --> 5587.96] it look freaking amazing. +[5588.30 --> 5588.54] Yep. +[5588.94 --> 5591.64] A-player Smash is the headline, but honestly... +[5591.64 --> 5592.34] There's so many. +[5592.34 --> 5593.84] There are a dozen other features. +[5593.84 --> 5598.00] They did, what was it, like a 15-minute video with 50 features of Smash Wii U? +[5598.00 --> 5598.44] Yeah, yeah. +[5598.44 --> 5605.70] That are just all of which are good and many of which are just blowing the minds of the +[5605.70 --> 5606.58] entire internet. +[5607.06 --> 5607.58] I'm so stoked. +[5607.66 --> 5609.64] So, do you want to do some highlights here? +[5610.00 --> 5611.12] There's a bunch of different things. +[5611.26 --> 5613.92] You can use your DS as a controller. +[5614.02 --> 5614.74] We already knew that. +[5614.74 --> 5619.36] But if you bring your character over that you created on your DS side, it brings everything +[5619.36 --> 5621.08] with it, which is actually really cool. +[5621.42 --> 5622.04] And not just... +[5622.04 --> 5623.52] You can use your DS as a controller. +[5623.90 --> 5626.12] You can use pretty much any controller you want. +[5626.12 --> 5626.28] Yeah. +[5626.28 --> 5628.98] Unless you want to use a Sega Genesis controller for some reason. +[5628.98 --> 5634.10] There's a game of games like GameCube, Classic Controller, Wiimote, Nunchuck, Wii U Controller, +[5634.72 --> 5636.16] 2DS, like... +[5636.16 --> 5637.40] All of the different pro controllers. +[5637.50 --> 5638.60] I think it's 3DS only, isn't it? +[5638.74 --> 5639.72] 2DS or 3DS, I believe. +[5639.72 --> 5639.94] Okay. +[5640.70 --> 5641.14] Yeah. +[5641.30 --> 5644.50] All of the different pro controllers, Nunchuck, normal Wiimote. +[5644.66 --> 5645.64] Absolutely bananas. +[5646.92 --> 5650.22] There's the 8-player Smash, 7-player Smash, whatever you want to do. +[5650.56 --> 5651.54] 4-player online. +[5652.00 --> 5652.24] Yeah. +[5652.40 --> 5653.42] Only 4-player online. +[5653.42 --> 5658.06] And certain maps won't be playable online as well because they have these massive maps +[5658.06 --> 5661.18] now for 8-player Smash, which I'm actually super excited for. +[5661.24 --> 5662.06] That looks super cool. +[5662.12 --> 5662.24] Yeah. +[5662.30 --> 5663.88] They have maps with two planes. +[5664.28 --> 5664.56] Yeah. +[5664.64 --> 5664.82] Yeah. +[5664.82 --> 5665.02] Yeah. +[5665.10 --> 5666.72] So there's the foreground and the background. +[5666.96 --> 5667.82] They have... +[5667.82 --> 5669.72] What is it even called? +[5669.96 --> 5670.44] It's like... +[5670.44 --> 5672.96] I don't remember exactly what it's called, but it looks like a tabletop mode. +[5673.30 --> 5674.66] And you play this kind of board game. +[5674.74 --> 5679.60] And whenever your characters on the board run into each other, it creates a Smash battle. +[5679.92 --> 5682.76] And while you're going around the board game, you collect different characters and stuff. +[5682.76 --> 5687.24] And in the final battle, your stock count, so your lives, is based on how many... +[5687.24 --> 5688.56] What characters you have. +[5689.00 --> 5690.64] So when you die, you just sort out. +[5690.98 --> 5692.60] Which is actually super cool. +[5692.98 --> 5693.92] I'm excited to play that. +[5693.98 --> 5696.20] If you have a bunch of people over, that could actually be a lot of fun. +[5696.34 --> 5696.84] A lot of fun. +[5697.04 --> 5698.22] Which is exactly why I like Nintendo. +[5698.76 --> 5699.40] And... +[5699.40 --> 5700.14] Oh, yeah. +[5700.24 --> 5701.42] Did I even mention already? +[5701.72 --> 5702.66] 1080p, 60fps? +[5705.30 --> 5706.08] So epic. +[5706.48 --> 5707.18] So epic. +[5708.72 --> 5710.42] Yeah, that needed more than one of those. +[5710.42 --> 5714.20] I did it so many times, I'm blurry. +[5714.90 --> 5719.14] That's how owned everyone else got by Nintendo with Super Smash. +[5719.30 --> 5722.12] And there was a ton of other really cool announcements as well. +[5722.24 --> 5724.18] Yeah, you guys should definitely check out the video. +[5724.40 --> 5727.30] It is worthwhile because it looks fantastic. +[5727.44 --> 5729.06] Team battles with up to four teams. +[5730.74 --> 5732.64] That is going to be bananas. +[5732.64 --> 5739.16] I mean, it's going to be like risk alliances, like friend-breaking stuff, but Smash Brothers. +[5739.28 --> 5742.54] One thing that I really liked was just how they announced the eight-player smash. +[5742.80 --> 5744.32] Because they're like, five people. +[5744.48 --> 5745.86] So now if you're the fifth wheel, it's fine. +[5746.00 --> 5748.34] Also, by the way, six people. +[5749.02 --> 5751.72] Also, by the way, seven, eight people. +[5751.92 --> 5753.32] It's like, oh my god. +[5753.40 --> 5755.76] I keep on blowing my mind over and over again. +[5755.76 --> 5757.20] It's like watching Sesame Street. +[5757.56 --> 5760.10] It's like, five, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. +[5760.86 --> 5763.24] Six players, ah, ah, ah, ah. +[5764.00 --> 5764.18] Yeah. +[5764.24 --> 5764.52] Love it. +[5764.66 --> 5765.16] Pretty stoked. +[5765.36 --> 5765.70] All right. +[5765.76 --> 5766.84] That's pretty much it, guys. +[5766.94 --> 5767.68] Thank you for two. +[5767.70 --> 5771.50] Oh, did you want to do the system builds of the week that I missed for two weeks in a row? +[5771.50 --> 5773.84] I would love to do system builds in the week that you missed for two weeks in a row. +[5773.96 --> 5777.40] But the link that was added to the dock totally doesn't work at all. +[5777.42 --> 5778.00] Okay, next week. +[5778.36 --> 5780.50] So I don't know what to do about this. +[5780.56 --> 5781.56] I was not emailed. +[5781.88 --> 5783.76] We're supposed to draw the Zotac. +[5783.76 --> 5784.90] We have to draw the 980. +[5785.56 --> 5786.64] Zotac 980 winner. +[5786.78 --> 5787.90] Yeah, let's do that. +[5787.96 --> 5788.58] That's fun. +[5788.70 --> 5792.66] If someone can figure out how to get me those, that would be great. +[5792.90 --> 5795.10] The link in the dock doesn't work at all and I don't have an email from it. +[5795.34 --> 5796.52] So I can't do anything. +[5796.94 --> 5797.76] I have this. +[5798.02 --> 5798.86] Does this look right? +[5798.96 --> 5799.62] That is a thing. +[5799.76 --> 5801.42] We can preferably use the forum. +[5801.54 --> 5803.26] But if the forum is not working, we can use this. +[5803.34 --> 5804.78] Okay, let's just use this then. +[5804.92 --> 5805.24] Does that work? +[5806.24 --> 5806.44] Yeah. +[5806.52 --> 5813.46] So what this is, is Ghost created a script which works kind of in conjunction with all of the +[5813.46 --> 5818.52] scripts that the mod team have created and all of that awesomeness, which we are removing +[5818.52 --> 5820.94] duplicated posts from the thread. +[5821.52 --> 5824.88] And then this script goes through and indexes all of them. +[5825.32 --> 5831.18] So you can find the end of it and then do a random between one and the last entry on there. +[5831.18 --> 5834.76] And then if you just control F for that number, you'll have your winner. +[5834.86 --> 5835.90] Let's do this thing then. +[5836.14 --> 5839.52] So 12,300. +[5839.66 --> 5840.06] Yeah, that's okay. +[5840.38 --> 5842.60] 12,354 entries. +[5844.28 --> 5844.68] Okay. +[5844.84 --> 5846.82] And let's go ahead and share my screen. +[5847.00 --> 5849.40] So we're going to move this so you guys can actually see it this time. +[5849.40 --> 5856.54] And oh, in the meantime, we want you guys to think about this and start hitting up at +[5856.54 --> 5863.76] Luke underscore LAFR on Twitter with some suggestions because we are doing a $130 motherboard roundup +[5863.76 --> 5864.34] spectacular. +[5864.60 --> 5867.64] This is going to be a multi-part video and we're not going to be looking at performance. +[5868.06 --> 5869.54] So put that out of your mind. +[5869.64 --> 5871.18] That's specifically what we're not looking for. +[5871.18 --> 5872.26] Yeah, we're not looking for that. +[5872.66 --> 5876.80] Overclocking, we might briefly validate that they all kind of get to the same level, but +[5876.80 --> 5877.78] they all do that anyway. +[5877.78 --> 5879.32] We're not going to be looking at overclocking. +[5879.38 --> 5880.80] We're not going to be looking at performance. +[5880.96 --> 5882.84] We're going to be looking at usability. +[5883.50 --> 5888.60] So some examples would be things like how fast are their download servers when you're +[5888.60 --> 5890.72] looking for your new drivers when you build your rig. +[5891.42 --> 5895.48] Examples like for USB BIOS updates, how easy is the process? +[5895.78 --> 5900.58] How's compatibility of the back USB ports with a variety of USB drives when you're reading +[5900.58 --> 5902.30] off of it in order to flash your BIOS? +[5902.44 --> 5907.18] We're going to be looking for how good is the experience of this motherboard? +[5907.18 --> 5910.84] Because really that's what I think is more important than performance these days where +[5910.84 --> 5912.66] they're all pretty darn similar. +[5912.80 --> 5916.98] One thing I even want to look into is like how many clicks to do certain different things. +[5917.54 --> 5917.66] Right. +[5918.16 --> 5919.44] Like just how efficient is it? +[5919.56 --> 5921.22] How efficient is the BIOS to navigate? +[5921.60 --> 5921.70] Yeah. +[5921.84 --> 5922.42] Great example. +[5922.54 --> 5927.90] If you need to change to RAID mode on your SATA controller or whatever else, like I think +[5927.90 --> 5932.16] we won't look at it that granularly when we actually do the video, but that's what +[5932.16 --> 5935.60] the evaluation will be based on is how navigable is the thing. +[5935.82 --> 5935.88] Yeah. +[5936.04 --> 5936.36] All right. +[5936.44 --> 5938.84] So the winner is 3,015. +[5939.74 --> 5942.40] Let's go ahead over to 3,015. +[5942.40 --> 5943.32] 3,015. +[5944.44 --> 5945.76] No, I want the other one. +[5947.22 --> 5948.14] 3,015. +[5948.46 --> 5949.40] There it is. +[5950.28 --> 5952.86] Barry Preston Slade Jr. +[5952.86 --> 5957.34] So let's go ahead and find Barry Preston Slade Jr. +[5957.44 --> 5958.00] on the forum. +[5958.90 --> 5965.84] The lucky winner, which of course has to be claimed through the forum so that we can actually +[5965.84 --> 5966.52] contact you. +[5966.52 --> 5966.60] Please be working. +[5966.96 --> 5967.24] Sorry? +[5967.48 --> 5968.14] Please be working. +[5968.20 --> 5968.60] Yay! +[5969.32 --> 5969.66] Okay. +[5969.98 --> 5971.28] This is probably not going to work. +[5974.60 --> 5975.86] Probably not going to work at all. +[5975.94 --> 5976.78] Oh yeah, that search field. +[5976.78 --> 5979.62] You're probably going to have to use your other view and you're not going to want to look +[5979.62 --> 5980.66] right now because... +[5980.66 --> 5981.18] Oh, you're not streaming. +[5981.18 --> 5982.18] Yeah, yeah, don't worry. +[5982.24 --> 5982.56] It's all good. +[5982.74 --> 5983.30] It's all good. +[5984.18 --> 5985.10] I'm okay. +[5985.30 --> 5986.30] Everything is okay. +[5986.50 --> 5987.46] Oh, here, here, here, here, here. +[5988.32 --> 5989.24] There we go. +[5990.60 --> 5991.00] Boop. +[5993.16 --> 5995.50] And let's just go ahead and have a look. +[5997.06 --> 5997.88] There you go. +[5998.22 --> 5998.94] Oh, hey! +[5999.04 --> 6001.98] Everyone always complains when it's a one-post wonder who wins. +[6002.34 --> 6011.16] This time it is a 14-post wonder who actually has his profile filled out and was laughing. +[6011.18 --> 6012.04] Last active today. +[6012.58 --> 6012.98] Awesome. +[6013.12 --> 6013.86] So there you go. +[6013.98 --> 6018.36] We managed to pick a winner who is someone who, even though they don't post a lot... +[6018.36 --> 6022.50] The last active thing I think matters almost more than anything else because that's showing... +[6023.32 --> 6025.40] Because I don't care, honestly, if you post at all. +[6025.52 --> 6025.60] Yeah. +[6025.64 --> 6028.12] If you're on the forum and you're reading everything, that's super cool too. +[6028.12 --> 6028.28] Yeah. +[6028.28 --> 6029.16] Everything's cool. +[6029.26 --> 6032.96] I mean, posting is great because helping other people is like what it's all about. +[6033.46 --> 6040.02] But being someone who was on the forum two hours ago, so is an active forum member, even +[6040.02 --> 6042.64] if maybe not the most active contributor, I think is super cool. +[6042.72 --> 6043.12] Yeah, me too. +[6043.26 --> 6045.02] So we're going to push build logs to... +[6045.02 --> 6045.56] Oh, did you find them? +[6045.64 --> 6046.04] Got it. +[6046.18 --> 6047.54] So we're forwarding to you now. +[6047.56 --> 6047.98] Well, hold on. +[6048.02 --> 6048.40] No, it's okay. +[6048.46 --> 6049.04] You just... +[6049.04 --> 6050.52] I don't have a viewer installed. +[6050.88 --> 6051.14] You do? +[6051.36 --> 6052.14] Forwarding to you. +[6052.20 --> 6053.38] Are you sure you don't have PowerPoint on that? +[6053.38 --> 6053.82] I... +[6053.82 --> 6054.40] Yep, I checked. +[6055.00 --> 6055.82] Well, I didn't check. +[6055.84 --> 6056.22] Are you sure? +[6056.38 --> 6057.02] Can you double check? +[6058.64 --> 6059.48] You do not. +[6059.66 --> 6060.26] Alrighty then. +[6060.96 --> 6061.92] I will deal with it. +[6063.64 --> 6065.20] It was forwarded to you now, so... +[6065.20 --> 6065.44] Okay. +[6065.92 --> 6066.38] You should have that. +[6066.46 --> 6069.02] My download speeds are terrible. +[6069.02 --> 6070.14] Yeah, I don't know what's going on right now. +[6070.14 --> 6070.66] The access point is too far away. +[6071.38 --> 6074.38] Although, actually, I have something interesting to tell you. +[6074.42 --> 6075.48] Yeah, no, I saw that. +[6075.52 --> 6076.48] I was super stoked. +[6076.48 --> 6080.52] So this is an eight... +[6080.52 --> 6085.00] No, actually, this is a $1,000 access point. +[6085.86 --> 6086.14] Yeah. +[6086.62 --> 6087.60] This is the R700. +[6087.94 --> 6089.50] This is their highest-end access point. +[6089.64 --> 6092.26] I never looked into how much it costs because I didn't want to know. +[6092.42 --> 6097.74] It is a $1,000 access point, and I am going to be having a... +[6097.74 --> 6100.58] We're going to be looking at a series of videos about this. +[6100.94 --> 6102.56] And the way that we're going to be approaching this... +[6102.56 --> 6103.58] This is an enterprise grade. +[6103.64 --> 6104.54] This is like for airports. +[6104.80 --> 6105.62] Ruckus is badass. +[6105.62 --> 6107.82] Ruckus is some serious stuff. +[6108.34 --> 6111.62] So the way that we're going to be looking at this ruckus gear is... +[6113.50 --> 6115.80] High-end, very high-end enthusiasts. +[6116.20 --> 6119.28] Don't blink twice about spending $700 on a graphics card. +[6119.48 --> 6122.56] Some of them will even spend that much times three, +[6122.64 --> 6123.82] and they'll buy three graphics cards. +[6124.38 --> 6127.10] High-end wireless equipment is something that you can actually get +[6127.10 --> 6129.44] multiple generations out of the same way that you can +[6129.44 --> 6130.46] with something like a monitor, +[6130.64 --> 6134.08] especially now that development has slowed down so much on it. +[6134.08 --> 6136.58] And if you were to look at it and go, +[6136.74 --> 6138.88] okay, instead of investing in three-way SLI, +[6138.92 --> 6139.94] I'm going to skip a generation. +[6140.12 --> 6145.14] I'm going to put a controller and a couple of really high-end access points in my house. +[6145.26 --> 6147.88] I want to look at what the benefit will actually be. +[6147.96 --> 6150.72] So I'll be taking a real-world scenario, in this case, a house, +[6150.80 --> 6155.06] and I will be putting a controller and two of these access points in it +[6155.06 --> 6158.14] and having a look at how it compares to one central AP, +[6158.40 --> 6159.86] the way that most people do it today, +[6160.12 --> 6162.72] with just your router access point combo unit. +[6163.02 --> 6165.14] I'm going to be looking at it compared to Ubiquity, +[6165.34 --> 6167.12] because I have those AC access points +[6167.12 --> 6169.50] that were doing really well for me at first, +[6169.56 --> 6171.78] but now I'm having actually a lot of problems with. +[6171.86 --> 6173.54] I had to RMA both of my first ones. +[6173.66 --> 6174.32] Yeah, that's pretty cool. +[6174.32 --> 6177.22] And then we're going to move to Ruckus, +[6177.40 --> 6180.88] and we're going to see what range looks like throughout the house +[6180.88 --> 6183.08] with really demanding applications, +[6183.26 --> 6184.68] things like NVIDIA GameStream, +[6184.86 --> 6186.90] and have a look at if it really makes a difference +[6186.90 --> 6189.06] and if something like that is worthwhile. +[6189.44 --> 6192.58] So that's going to be a really interesting video. +[6192.74 --> 6195.10] And at the same time, I'm going to do it in my house, +[6195.20 --> 6200.44] because that way I can justify upgrading to Cat 6 all over my house at the same time. +[6200.44 --> 6203.18] So this is his ruse to jack a $1,000 access point. +[6203.18 --> 6205.26] I knew it. +[6205.36 --> 6209.88] I could mount anything to that access point mount there. +[6210.82 --> 6211.22] Ridiculous. +[6211.46 --> 6213.20] I can promise this. +[6213.44 --> 6215.32] I can promise when we move, +[6215.76 --> 6220.64] we will get some kind of managed multiple access point system at the new place. +[6220.66 --> 6222.72] We will need one at the new place. +[6223.72 --> 6225.58] So what was I talking about now? +[6225.68 --> 6226.44] We're going to build logs. +[6226.76 --> 6227.54] Oh, yeah, build logs. +[6227.54 --> 6229.36] Oh, I should have been downloading that. +[6229.36 --> 6230.92] That was my whole concept. +[6231.26 --> 6231.86] I thought you were, actually. +[6232.30 --> 6232.90] That's unfortunate. +[6232.90 --> 6233.32] Oh, well. +[6233.60 --> 6233.90] Hold on. +[6234.70 --> 6236.32] I think there's just one button. +[6237.04 --> 6237.24] Download. +[6237.58 --> 6238.58] Downloads it in a zip. +[6239.66 --> 6240.18] That's okay. +[6240.26 --> 6241.58] I can unzip for you. +[6242.14 --> 6242.54] No. +[6243.52 --> 6245.20] I don't know if that's cute or dirty. +[6245.58 --> 6246.16] Oh, it's both. +[6246.16 --> 6246.46] Maybe both. +[6249.20 --> 6251.48] We need a shirt for cute and dirty, too. +[6252.04 --> 6252.30] Yeah. +[6252.60 --> 6253.18] Cute and dirty. +[6253.50 --> 6255.82] And it should be like a CPU with, like, thermal compound. +[6255.82 --> 6261.42] Oh, that's awesome. +[6263.10 --> 6263.88] That's kind of funny. +[6264.10 --> 6265.30] That's actually pretty good. +[6265.44 --> 6268.50] I'm dirty with, like, a CPU that hasn't been cleaned off. +[6268.54 --> 6269.24] I kind of like that. +[6269.32 --> 6270.28] We should probably do that. +[6271.62 --> 6272.00] All right. +[6272.00 --> 6273.48] I'll fire it to Nick while that's download. +[6273.48 --> 6273.78] Sure. +[6273.90 --> 6274.34] Thank you. +[6275.04 --> 6275.28] Wow. +[6275.34 --> 6279.28] I can't believe how many more people watch the show when you're around. +[6279.46 --> 6282.30] We peaked at, like, 5,500 viewers today. +[6282.38 --> 6284.66] When, with you gone, I think we peaked at around 4,500. +[6284.66 --> 6288.82] So, you're officially still justifiable as the latest media group employee. +[6288.96 --> 6289.62] That was close. +[6289.80 --> 6290.22] Good job. +[6292.04 --> 6299.30] The thing about employees or, like, team members, any team member, me included, is, like, the +[6299.30 --> 6301.58] real test is not what they do when they're around. +[6301.98 --> 6303.00] It's what happens when they're not. +[6303.02 --> 6305.92] It's how hard it is to compensate when they're not around. +[6306.04 --> 6307.34] How valuable is that person? +[6307.92 --> 6312.02] Well, if I just about die when they're gone for a week, then I guess they should probably +[6312.02 --> 6312.80] still work here. +[6312.80 --> 6316.36] My metric was when you guys missed an upload. +[6317.46 --> 6319.12] I was like, whoa. +[6319.68 --> 6320.32] When you were gone? +[6320.48 --> 6320.70] Yeah. +[6320.92 --> 6321.88] No, we didn't miss a day. +[6322.16 --> 6322.74] I thought you did. +[6322.82 --> 6322.98] No. +[6323.32 --> 6324.14] I was pretty sure you did. +[6324.16 --> 6327.14] No, what we did was we started delaying the release till 4 hours. +[6327.42 --> 6327.50] Yeah. +[6327.70 --> 6328.66] No, we didn't miss one. +[6329.16 --> 6332.76] That schedule just got bumped 4 hours, and we could easily pull it in 4 hours. +[6332.90 --> 6333.16] Yeah, okay. +[6333.20 --> 6333.90] Everything is okay. +[6333.90 --> 6335.12] I thought you guys missed a video. +[6335.26 --> 6336.10] I was like, okay. +[6336.42 --> 6339.78] That hasn't happened in, like, what? +[6339.92 --> 6340.66] That made no sense. +[6340.66 --> 6349.54] The one time that happened was something where we were preparing content for a trip, and that +[6349.54 --> 6352.00] product ended up being embargoed, and we didn't know. +[6352.20 --> 6352.36] Yeah. +[6352.80 --> 6353.86] And so... +[6353.86 --> 6355.30] That didn't really count, in my opinion. +[6355.38 --> 6358.54] That sort of didn't count, even though we did officially miss an upload day. +[6358.62 --> 6360.72] But then we do event coverage where we do multiples in a day. +[6360.72 --> 6363.36] So we're averaging more than one a day for over three years. +[6363.46 --> 6363.62] Yeah. +[6365.24 --> 6365.68] Okay. +[6365.84 --> 6372.10] I am having a little trouble understanding why this is multiple PowerPoint files. +[6372.10 --> 6373.38] You should only actually need two. +[6373.54 --> 6377.24] I think what they've been doing, because we were wondering about this last time, but if +[6377.24 --> 6381.36] I remember correctly, what they're doing is they send the whole file, and they send +[6381.36 --> 6382.60] just the presentation versions. +[6383.60 --> 6384.00] Okay. +[6384.00 --> 6388.06] So you can change things if you want, or you can just use what should be the smaller +[6388.06 --> 6388.46] ones. +[6388.68 --> 6390.74] So it's two and three is what you're looking for. +[6391.20 --> 6392.06] There's no one. +[6392.50 --> 6393.80] So you need two and you need three. +[6394.44 --> 6394.74] Okay. +[6395.48 --> 6395.76] All right. +[6395.80 --> 6396.64] Well, here's the first one. +[6396.76 --> 6398.12] I have officially figured this out. +[6398.22 --> 6398.86] Oh, hold on. +[6399.24 --> 6404.52] Let me make sure whatever's in the background here is not something that needs to not be in +[6404.52 --> 6405.52] the background of our videos. +[6405.90 --> 6406.26] All right. +[6406.28 --> 6406.82] Here we go. +[6407.02 --> 6408.28] Linus's screen share. +[6408.28 --> 6411.72] No, it doesn't look like they included... +[6411.72 --> 6413.12] Project Rain Dawn. +[6413.42 --> 6414.74] Who won which one. +[6414.98 --> 6418.68] So I don't think it says who this was voted through. +[6418.74 --> 6424.30] I don't know if this was voted for by the mods, or if this was voted by the community. +[6424.38 --> 6424.60] Okay. +[6424.70 --> 6428.94] Well, we can conclude that they definitely won a Build of the Month award. +[6429.66 --> 6430.00] Okay. +[6430.16 --> 6431.34] So pretty high-end specs. +[6431.44 --> 6431.58] Wow. +[6431.80 --> 6432.78] That's kind of badass. +[6433.52 --> 6434.50] Kingpin classified. +[6434.96 --> 6435.40] That's sick. +[6435.58 --> 6436.76] I love these hardware shots. +[6436.76 --> 6440.44] And it's like, here's all the stuff that I'm going to put into one very small place +[6440.44 --> 6441.32] very, very soon. +[6441.92 --> 6443.06] Really like this. +[6444.22 --> 6445.90] These SSD mounts look really cool. +[6448.08 --> 6449.36] Cable management on the back. +[6449.76 --> 6450.76] Oh, that looks good. +[6451.06 --> 6452.48] Inside looks really good here, though. +[6452.88 --> 6453.38] You know what? +[6453.66 --> 6455.56] We're actually going to look into... +[6455.56 --> 6460.38] I really like this whole straight line thing, but what I don't really like is having to use +[6460.38 --> 6462.46] fittings for it, like this. +[6462.82 --> 6465.44] Having to use angled fittings and soft tubing to achieve it. +[6465.44 --> 6470.70] So we'll be looking into doing some kind of a build log or build guide with hard tubing +[6470.70 --> 6472.90] sometime in the near future. +[6472.90 --> 6473.88] I shouldn't say near future. +[6473.98 --> 6475.76] Sometime in the future that will happen. +[6476.12 --> 6478.50] Because oil-cooled machine is happening first. +[6478.70 --> 6479.26] That is happening. +[6479.58 --> 6480.58] We have started that. +[6480.76 --> 6480.78] Yeah. +[6480.92 --> 6482.12] I wasn't sure if I could say that or not. +[6482.20 --> 6485.02] We have started that and done actually a lot of it. +[6485.24 --> 6485.38] Yeah. +[6485.64 --> 6485.84] Yeah. +[6485.84 --> 6487.16] So that's going to be freaking awesome. +[6487.48 --> 6487.66] Whoa. +[6487.76 --> 6488.96] So here's our second one. +[6489.28 --> 6491.26] This laptop's doing some funky stuff right now. +[6491.52 --> 6492.22] But no, don't worry about it. +[6492.24 --> 6492.50] We're good. +[6493.14 --> 6493.44] Okay. +[6493.62 --> 6502.22] So ROG Maximus 6 Extreme, GTX 780 SLI, Elite Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition fans, and lots of... +[6502.22 --> 6502.94] Oh, wow. +[6503.60 --> 6504.04] Whoa. +[6506.10 --> 6506.62] Wow. +[6506.62 --> 6507.02] Wow. +[6507.28 --> 6508.10] That case. +[6508.80 --> 6509.56] That is sick. +[6510.04 --> 6510.70] I like it. +[6510.80 --> 6513.30] I almost like the raw more than the black. +[6513.38 --> 6514.24] Me too, actually. +[6515.88 --> 6517.14] Mind you, that's all right. +[6517.16 --> 6517.60] Whoa, maybe not. +[6518.76 --> 6519.20] Okay. +[6519.70 --> 6520.40] This one's nice. +[6520.66 --> 6524.10] I'm assuming what happened was the last one was voted for by the mods and this one was +[6524.10 --> 6524.92] voted for by the community. +[6525.16 --> 6526.56] The community really likes them. +[6526.74 --> 6528.08] Them super clean builds. +[6528.08 --> 6530.08] Them super perfect builds. +[6530.08 --> 6530.64] Wow. +[6532.02 --> 6533.52] Look at this reservoir. +[6535.08 --> 6535.82] I love it. +[6535.82 --> 6544.24] It looks like a freaking reactor thing, like stasis module plumbed upness. +[6544.54 --> 6545.30] That's great. +[6545.48 --> 6546.24] Absolutely love it. +[6546.26 --> 6546.98] What a great build. +[6548.14 --> 6548.84] All right. +[6548.96 --> 6550.70] So thanks for tuning into the WAN Show, guys. +[6550.78 --> 6551.84] We'll see you again next week. +[6551.92 --> 6554.08] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[6554.80 --> 6555.50] Peace out. +[6555.74 --> 6556.18] Bye. +[6557.92 --> 6559.72] Definitely doing an after party this week. +[6559.84 --> 6559.92] Dang it. +[6559.92 --> 6561.32] There's going to be some funky stuff happening. +[6561.64 --> 6562.24] Just so you guys know. +[6563.82 --> 6564.52] Dang it. +[6564.74 --> 6565.40] What's going on? +[6565.40 --> 6565.94] Oh, yeah. +[6566.06 --> 6566.74] Oh, yeah. +[6567.30 --> 6568.86] Oh, that's the one with no sound. +[6569.06 --> 6569.88] Well, screw it. +[6569.96 --> 6570.98] Well, the dude, dude. +[6571.10 -->

I hope you guys enjoyed the pre-show today with this guy dancing. +[9.32 --> 11.46] It literally didn't even happen. +[11.50 --> 17.10] If I promise that it's going to happen, and then I say it did happen, most people will believe it happened. +[19.24 --> 23.96] I was lying previously. If you were there for the pre-show, I was actually dancing. +[23.96 --> 30.30] There was dancing. Dancing did occur. And I'm sure the Twitch chat will back me up on this. +[30.40 --> 32.92] I'm fairly certain indeed that that is going to be a thing. +[32.92 --> 37.00] Did we change the name of our broadcast already to something that makes an ounce of sense? +[37.32 --> 37.72] Probably not. +[37.94 --> 39.48] Unlike Cooler Master Live... +[39.48 --> 41.88] Okay. Well, it would have been good to do that. +[41.96 --> 43.58] Thank you for bringing it to my attention. +[44.16 --> 48.14] That weekly tech talk and news. +[49.74 --> 53.36] Fridays at 1630 Pacific. +[53.96 --> 62.22] Time. I appreciate when you point out errors, but then actually make no attempt whatsoever to rectify them. +[62.22 --> 62.42] I opened a tab. +[62.94 --> 64.00] You opened a tab. +[65.52 --> 66.04] Yeah! +[67.90 --> 72.14] Opening a new tab. The solution to not wanting to do something now. +[72.36 --> 75.94] I did the easiest and shortest step on the way to the solution. +[78.06 --> 79.34] No, you did more than that. +[79.34 --> 80.32] Wait, how far did I get? +[80.36 --> 82.04] You opened a Twitch tab. +[82.18 --> 83.36] Oh, I opened it and I... +[83.36 --> 91.62] And you successfully highlighted the text that you thought then about changing. +[91.62 --> 92.12] Excellent. +[92.30 --> 94.46] So guys, we've got a great show for you today. +[94.90 --> 104.24] It's actually been a bit of a slow week on the hardware side of things, but we're definitely going to talk about Razer's new Razer mechanical key switches. +[104.24 --> 109.24] We are going to be talking about Firefox's $25 smartphone. +[110.50 --> 111.34] Like, $25. +[111.50 --> 113.42] That's like, basically... +[113.42 --> 115.50] You can't go to a chain restaurant. +[116.18 --> 116.84] It's like a SIM card. +[117.66 --> 117.92] Yeah. +[118.50 --> 121.36] Yeah, that's what we paid for our T-Mobile SIM cards, I think. +[121.42 --> 123.72] Yeah, it was either $15 or $25. +[123.88 --> 127.00] It's like, the SIM and the phone will cost the same. +[127.00 --> 139.26] We've also got that in the EU, the regulatory bodies that be don't want free-to-play, which is to say, supported by in-app purchases, to be allowed to be called free. +[139.26 --> 149.70] And really are uncomfortable with the way that these are preying on children who don't necessarily understand the implications of upgrade now. +[150.22 --> 158.16] Or, you know, similar calls to action that don't say, give us your parents' money and then we will give you some intangible thing. +[158.26 --> 160.80] Like, they don't want that in there anymore. +[160.90 --> 161.38] What else we got? +[161.38 --> 167.74] We've got an HTC M8 leak by a teenager who's probably in for a world of hurt coming soon. +[167.82 --> 169.26] And actually, I think already has been. +[169.74 --> 171.70] But we'll see more about that later. +[171.84 --> 172.58] Oh my god. +[173.62 --> 174.90] It's pretty bad. +[175.34 --> 180.58] Verizon is going to be charging gamers and streamers more for the usage of more internet. +[181.06 --> 181.86] So... +[181.86 --> 186.86] And this was apparently in the name of net neutrality, but we'll, again, talk about that more later. +[187.44 --> 187.82] Ha ha! +[188.60 --> 189.12] No. +[189.66 --> 190.12] That's not. +[190.12 --> 191.68] No, it's not. +[193.06 --> 195.58] Okay, I won't make you guys look at that horrible face anymore. +[195.68 --> 197.88] That got even awkward for me, and I'm not even watching. +[198.34 --> 202.80] I'm just, like, beside, and I was just like, wow, I don't know what to do right now. +[203.76 --> 206.12] I'm going to call that the Verizon face. +[207.48 --> 208.40] You should... +[208.40 --> 212.12] Next, like, big conference you go to, when someone says something really important, you should be like... +[213.04 --> 215.96] And just sit there for a really long time. +[216.06 --> 217.58] While they try to brief me on the product. +[218.06 --> 219.30] Okay, okay, intro, intro, intro. +[219.30 --> 220.22] Oh, man. +[220.86 --> 221.30] Oh, man. +[221.30 --> 227.06] So, there's an interesting new sponsor. +[227.06 --> 250.06] Intel is one of our sponsors today, and they are actually going to be sponsoring us at PAX East. +[250.06 --> 254.06] Our second show sponsor of the day is dollarshaveclub.com. +[254.68 --> 256.16] Shave time, shave money. +[256.62 --> 259.56] Don't slice your jugular open on camera. +[259.72 --> 265.38] I don't know if you guys saw our dual graphics video, but we actually covered the benefits of Dollar Shave Club in depth. +[265.46 --> 268.92] It took about two minutes, but I'll give you the briefer version right now. +[268.92 --> 275.24] So, you get razors and shaving products, and actually, you can get butt wipes as well, delivered to your door every month. +[275.24 --> 281.74] And you save money compared to buying brand name products without compromising on the quality. +[281.74 --> 284.12] So, without further ado, what? +[284.18 --> 284.64] Hold up. +[284.74 --> 287.56] With further ado, we should benchmark the butt wipes. +[288.90 --> 290.46] We should release a video of bench... +[290.46 --> 292.16] I did not prep him on this at all. +[292.18 --> 292.88] Hold on a second. +[292.94 --> 294.16] A video of... +[294.16 --> 294.78] Okay, tell you what. +[294.82 --> 296.46] Why don't we talk about this during their integration? +[296.90 --> 297.44] Okay, okay. +[297.48 --> 297.70] Okay. +[298.26 --> 298.50] Sure. +[298.70 --> 299.46] Or not at all. +[299.46 --> 300.92] Well, you can... +[300.92 --> 301.82] Well, you don't have to use... +[301.82 --> 302.62] You can use something else. +[302.62 --> 303.12] What is wrong with you? +[303.14 --> 306.88] You can use something else, and then you can get other types of, like, wet tissues. +[307.00 --> 308.62] And he's like, well, I... +[308.62 --> 311.12] You know, I feel pretty uncomfortable right now. +[311.54 --> 314.58] And then he's like, we should make a video benchmarking butt wipes. +[314.58 --> 316.30] Well, I use some other type of material. +[316.52 --> 319.12] And I'm supposed to feel like I want to be in the same room as you. +[319.20 --> 319.54] Okay, you know what? +[319.54 --> 321.92] And then other different types of wet wipes. +[321.92 --> 324.92] So, our first topic of the today... +[325.48 --> 327.52] See, I'm completely flustered now. +[327.52 --> 337.50] In everyone's favorite segment, Better Than Bieber, there is some extremely cool research +[337.50 --> 342.16] going on right now with respect to solar-powered blimps. +[342.32 --> 347.92] Now, the blimps aren't necessarily going to have to be solar-powered, but we could be looking +[347.92 --> 350.36] at a much less expensive way... +[350.36 --> 352.74] I mean, solar power seems like the most feasible option right now. +[352.74 --> 361.34] But we could be looking at a much less expensive way of enabling monitoring, enabling of the +[361.34 --> 364.80] environment, enabling surveillance, of enabling... +[364.80 --> 365.16] I don't know. +[365.24 --> 368.90] I mean, something that wasn't really talked as much in the article as I would have thought +[368.90 --> 373.54] it would be, but communications is a definite use for something like this. +[374.28 --> 376.06] You know, internet coverage. +[377.04 --> 378.88] I mean, putting transmission... +[378.88 --> 384.90] Transmitting and receiving equipment on something like a blimp, as opposed to a satellite, has +[384.90 --> 386.48] some serious potential. +[386.80 --> 390.38] I mean, up till now, blimps have been mostly like they fly around the stadium. +[390.38 --> 391.18] Advertised car tires. +[391.18 --> 391.74] Yeah. +[391.74 --> 391.82] Yeah. +[392.24 --> 393.80] Goodyear blimp has been like... +[393.80 --> 397.08] The Goodyear blimp is the only blimp anyone ever cared about. +[397.08 --> 397.34] Yeah. +[397.60 --> 402.40] Other than, like, using the word as an insult for, you know, obese people. +[402.62 --> 405.40] Like, blimps just are not used much. +[406.14 --> 412.18] So anyway, last year, researchers from NASA, Caltech, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman... +[412.18 --> 413.76] Grumman, excuse me. +[415.08 --> 416.28] You are... +[416.28 --> 417.60] Butt wipes. +[417.60 --> 420.90] Anyway, met to discuss the future of airships. +[420.90 --> 426.02] Many believe they could be the future of surveillance and environmental monitoring, and they are +[426.02 --> 429.80] planned to be anywhere from 8 to 50 miles above sea level. +[429.92 --> 435.64] At that height, they could perform tasks similar to satellites while costing much, much less. +[435.74 --> 442.00] The estimated cost of putting a satellite into orbit, from the article on motherboard.vice.com, +[442.10 --> 443.98] was a billion dollars. +[443.98 --> 449.60] The estimated cost of putting a blimp in the air, once the, well, the wrinkles are ironed +[449.60 --> 452.66] out in the technology, could be as little as a few million. +[453.36 --> 457.28] So when you consider that, I mean, and then you consider other things too. +[457.36 --> 462.44] On a satellite, you're going to need a better camera in order to get satellite imagery of +[462.44 --> 468.50] the earth, whereas if you could just put crappier cameras on more blimps, you could get blimp +[468.50 --> 471.00] imagery, and it would cost significantly less. +[471.00 --> 476.62] Or even just the same, or not the same cameras, but the same quality of cameras, and then just +[476.62 --> 477.96] get much better pictures. +[478.12 --> 481.02] It just has its own whole set of, you know, concerns. +[481.36 --> 487.94] Speaking of concerns, aside from the technological limitations that are not allowing us to do this +[487.94 --> 493.26] yet, there are political reasons why it can't be done yet with, you know, I'm sure Russia +[493.26 --> 498.38] would be thrilled for the U.S. to have, you know, blimps all over the place. +[498.38 --> 500.52] I'm sure the U.S. would love having blimps all over the place. +[500.78 --> 502.26] Yeah, so, you know. +[502.26 --> 507.66] Just like, actually, literally just put the NSA logo on it, and just be like, yep, whatcha +[507.66 --> 508.16] gonna do? +[508.94 --> 514.10] So there's a long way for it to go, but this is extremely exciting for the future, especially +[514.10 --> 516.74] as, you know what, I, uh, it's not actually in the dock. +[516.74 --> 520.36] Maybe, maybe the Russians could apply for a new Olympic sport? +[520.82 --> 521.52] Blimp hunting? +[522.54 --> 523.26] Blimp hunting. +[523.88 --> 530.20] This isn't in our dock, but this is a really, really cool image that was created by, crap, +[530.74 --> 536.06] uh, Image Reveals, I think it was Yahoo News somehow came up with this or something. +[536.16 --> 536.74] This was yesterday. +[536.84 --> 538.60] Anyway, I'm gonna screen share with you guys. +[538.68 --> 541.68] I can't remember exactly what the details were, but check this out. +[542.10 --> 545.52] This is a picture of every single satellite that is orbiting the Earth. +[545.52 --> 553.28] So especially as Earth's, um, you know, orbit becomes more and more crowded with junk, +[553.28 --> 555.02] uh, yeah. +[555.02 --> 555.82] What the heck? +[555.94 --> 559.98] Blimps could become necessary as much as just cheaper. +[560.14 --> 560.94] That's insane. +[561.04 --> 562.02] I've never seen that before. +[562.18 --> 565.56] I knew there was a lot, and like, I always kind of wondered, like, when they're doing these +[565.56 --> 567.70] little micro-satellite projects and stuff. +[567.82 --> 568.04] Yeah. +[568.12 --> 569.44] And they're sending like a hundred up there. +[569.50 --> 571.10] I'm like, how many things are actually floating around? +[571.10 --> 575.22] And they always talk about like space garbage, literally, that's floating around. +[575.70 --> 576.06] I mean... +[576.06 --> 578.70] But like, holy cow, that's an insane amount. +[578.86 --> 578.96] In theory... +[578.96 --> 584.12] In theory, the orbits are designed such that once the satellite is no longer functioning or +[584.12 --> 585.10] no longer useful... +[585.10 --> 585.66] It'll burn up in the atmosphere. +[585.66 --> 586.78] It burns up in the atmosphere. +[586.92 --> 587.02] Yeah. +[587.02 --> 588.02] But... +[588.02 --> 588.80] Not always. +[589.34 --> 590.66] Ah, Extreme Networks recently. +[590.96 --> 594.86] Okay, so apparently it was posted by the chief marketing officer of network infrastructure +[594.86 --> 596.64] company Extreme Networks. +[596.68 --> 596.94] Okay. +[597.64 --> 598.96] Really cool, though. +[599.08 --> 602.22] That's like, that's the kind of stuff I like seeing, to be completely honest. +[602.32 --> 603.16] Like, that's epic. +[603.40 --> 604.28] That's really interesting. +[604.36 --> 608.10] I think we can all agree that even if you don't like seeing that image, it is more important +[608.10 --> 609.08] than Justin Bieber. +[609.26 --> 609.60] Yes. +[609.60 --> 614.74] All right, so let's go ahead and fire up this article from the Chicago Tribune. +[614.74 --> 615.32] The least surprising thing ever. +[615.46 --> 615.98] Although, careful! +[616.20 --> 617.06] Auto-play video ad. +[617.50 --> 617.74] Oh. +[619.00 --> 619.96] I don't hear anything. +[620.22 --> 621.16] All right, you're good, maybe. +[621.64 --> 621.84] Oh. +[622.32 --> 623.12] I'm amazing. +[623.46 --> 624.14] Never mind, good. +[625.14 --> 628.40] I'm like a live streaming... +[628.40 --> 628.96] Shiny purple? +[629.26 --> 630.46] Shiny purple guy. +[630.94 --> 632.04] What are you talking about? +[632.84 --> 637.98] You are just determined to make it impossible for me to keep my show on track here. +[637.98 --> 639.74] Don't make me fire you. +[639.82 --> 640.42] It's been a while. +[642.98 --> 651.26] So, Radio Shack closing over a thousand stores after an abysmal holiday season. +[651.50 --> 653.94] So, in the year 2013... +[653.94 --> 659.90] I mean, this still leaves them with over 4,000 stores left, but in the year 2013, their loss, +[660.56 --> 666.88] so they were already losing money, widened from about $63 million to about $190 million. +[666.88 --> 674.96] I mean, can you even fathom a business that's operating that poorly as, like, a retail store? +[675.06 --> 678.82] Well, like, we always kind of make fun of Best Buy and Future Shop. +[678.90 --> 679.12] We do. +[679.12 --> 682.52] Because we're like, oh, it's the showroom for Amazon, like, blah, blah, blah, blah, all these +[682.52 --> 684.12] things that everybody's saying, essentially. +[684.66 --> 689.22] But Radio Shack is, like, the one that sits down there below them that no one really wants +[689.22 --> 690.78] to make fun of because it's just awkward. +[690.78 --> 695.36] It's just like, oh, yeah, you used to be a really big deal. +[695.50 --> 697.80] Yeah, like, remember when Radio Shack was cool? +[698.36 --> 698.60] Yeah. +[698.78 --> 700.30] Like, everything you'd get was from Radio Shack. +[700.38 --> 704.32] Like, I remember my dad got my brother and I this, like, remote-controlled monster truck +[704.32 --> 705.10] from Radio Shack. +[705.18 --> 705.36] Yeah. +[705.36 --> 706.92] It was just, like, the most epic thing ever. +[707.22 --> 710.00] If you needed to fix something, you'd go to Radio Shack and get your stuff. +[710.20 --> 710.34] Yeah. +[710.34 --> 711.62] Now it's like, we sell phones. +[713.38 --> 719.28] So, yeah, CEO John McNachia, I'm sorry. +[719.88 --> 720.36] Whatever. +[720.76 --> 721.94] He won't be there long, I guess. +[722.34 --> 724.22] He took the job in February 2013. +[725.18 --> 729.14] He blamed the loss on poor shopper traffic, which makes sense. +[729.14 --> 729.34] Oh, yeah. +[729.86 --> 732.78] Intense discounting by rivals, which makes sense. +[733.32 --> 737.34] And tepid mobile phone demand, as well as operational problems. +[737.34 --> 740.70] I mean, let's talk about mobile phone demand. +[741.84 --> 745.94] I mean, I know we talked about this a fair bit on the show last week, but this is the +[745.94 --> 746.76] HTC one. +[747.08 --> 750.68] The HTC M8 is our mate, or whatever we want to call it, the 1-2. +[752.00 --> 755.34] This is what we're going to use as our, you know, knockout strategy. +[756.36 --> 757.48] The 1-2 punch. +[759.16 --> 760.42] They should have done that. +[760.44 --> 761.08] I know, right? +[761.08 --> 763.22] They should have gotten a boxer for sponsorship and everything. +[763.28 --> 764.54] They should have called it the 1-2. +[764.88 --> 765.18] Anyway. +[765.18 --> 765.58] Oh, my God. +[765.58 --> 765.70] Yeah. +[766.02 --> 767.60] They missed out on that one. +[767.80 --> 770.72] So, the 1 launched last year, almost a year ago. +[771.16 --> 775.30] And the new one's coming sometime, I think there's an event, like later this month, like +[775.30 --> 776.14] the 25th or something. +[776.20 --> 776.84] They confirmed it. +[777.56 --> 783.44] The 1 was head and shoulders above their previous top-end phone, which was head and shoulders +[783.44 --> 784.56] above the one before that. +[785.00 --> 786.68] The rumors about the 1-2? +[787.10 --> 789.84] Stuff like two cameras on the back? +[789.84 --> 793.00] Well, that's not even a rumor because of the leak that we'll talk about later. +[793.12 --> 793.26] Yeah. +[793.26 --> 799.22] But two cameras on the back and, like, slightly bigger screen and, like, same thing with the +[799.22 --> 799.80] S5. +[800.06 --> 801.80] Like, what's really been improved here? +[802.02 --> 802.90] No one really... +[802.90 --> 808.04] It comes with, like, 50 pre-subscribed things, which we'll talk about more later as well. +[808.04 --> 808.10] Oh. +[808.48 --> 813.88] It's like, so, where's the mobile phone demand going to come from? +[815.50 --> 815.96] So, okay. +[815.96 --> 821.62] Like, these are all things that being a CEO of a company, like, you're blaming it on this +[821.62 --> 821.90] stuff? +[822.06 --> 823.04] Yeah, no crap. +[823.10 --> 823.98] You should have figured that out. +[824.08 --> 826.02] These are exact things that you should have been worried about. +[826.02 --> 826.76] Tell you what, then. +[827.00 --> 828.72] What else would Radio Shack have done? +[829.18 --> 829.92] I don't know. +[830.00 --> 830.98] Well, there you go. +[831.00 --> 832.00] I'm not the CEO of Radio Shack. +[832.10 --> 832.84] This isn't my job. +[832.86 --> 835.04] And he's only been the CEO for, like, a year. +[835.20 --> 839.06] I know, but he's blaming it on things that are not, like, of course. +[839.46 --> 841.48] That's happening to literally everyone. +[841.48 --> 842.48] What else are you going to say? +[842.54 --> 844.26] Are you just going to hold no press conference? +[844.26 --> 846.84] Are you going to not even talk to your investors? +[847.62 --> 848.72] Have some sort of plan? +[849.84 --> 851.84] What would your plan be if you were Radio Shack? +[851.88 --> 852.38] I don't know. +[852.44 --> 853.14] All right, fair enough. +[853.56 --> 855.00] Again, I'm not the CEO of Radio Shack. +[855.06 --> 855.74] I haven't looked into it. +[855.78 --> 857.18] I'm sure there's something he can do. +[857.34 --> 860.66] So, sales fell from $1.17 billion in the quarter. +[862.66 --> 870.30] Or fell from $1.17 billion in the quarter covering the holiday season to $935 million in the +[870.30 --> 874.12] quarter covering the holiday season year over year, which is just, I mean. +[874.12 --> 879.66] If you're only selling $1 billion and you are losing $200 million. +[880.50 --> 881.76] That's a really big job. +[881.76 --> 883.12] I mean, that's a huge problem. +[883.16 --> 884.14] Like, it sounds like a lot of money. +[884.22 --> 885.40] And you're like, oh, they're still making a lot of money. +[885.46 --> 886.60] But that's not how this really works. +[886.62 --> 886.74] Yeah. +[886.86 --> 888.50] No, they're losing tons of money. +[888.60 --> 890.76] They are losing hundreds of millions of dollars. +[890.76 --> 892.70] Like, that's as if you had a store. +[892.92 --> 894.38] Like, let's say you're a theoretical store. +[894.54 --> 898.58] You had volunteer employees and you had no rent to pay. +[899.02 --> 903.86] That's the equivalent of buying dollar bills and selling them for $0.80. +[903.86 --> 907.62] That's what Radio Shack's doing. +[907.74 --> 912.24] I mean, it's, I'll be blown away if they still exist in another year or two. +[913.34 --> 913.58] Hmm. +[914.54 --> 916.10] Again, speculations like that. +[916.26 --> 917.24] Like, I'm not surprised. +[917.36 --> 921.36] But I expect them to last a little bit longer just because they'll keep liquidating like crazy. +[921.90 --> 922.14] Yeah. +[922.20 --> 924.84] I mean, they can keep closing stores and all that. +[924.84 --> 928.76] I fully expect they won't matter even less than they already don't matter. +[929.10 --> 932.80] And, like, you kind of wonder who still owns shares in a company like that. +[932.92 --> 933.14] Yeah. +[933.28 --> 934.80] Like, what future does someone see? +[934.94 --> 935.64] What are you doing? +[935.78 --> 941.72] Maybe it's just people who have, like, diverse stock portfolios and they just sort of, they, because people do this. +[941.74 --> 944.00] If one of the sections dies, it's not really that important. +[944.02 --> 945.34] Where they don't think about it much. +[945.42 --> 948.84] They just kind of invest in everything and then don't look at it anymore. +[948.96 --> 951.68] And some of the stuff will do really well and some will do poorly and that'll be that. +[951.88 --> 952.02] Yeah. +[952.02 --> 953.08] All right. +[953.18 --> 955.28] So let's go to our next story. +[955.52 --> 957.32] Firefox smartphone. +[957.62 --> 960.96] So there's a hands-on review from PCAdvisor.co.uk. +[961.54 --> 969.72] And I think the biggest thing to take away from this is that the overall impression of the phone is that it doesn't feel great. +[970.00 --> 971.78] I mean, it doesn't feel like a premium smartphone. +[972.00 --> 972.28] It's $25. +[972.82 --> 973.74] But it's $25. +[974.66 --> 976.30] Like, what do you expect? +[976.48 --> 978.34] And it doesn't feel bad either. +[979.32 --> 979.98] Which is surprising. +[979.98 --> 981.18] If you think about that. +[981.24 --> 981.90] I mean, think about that. +[981.90 --> 982.08] Okay. +[982.12 --> 984.30] So like a toy from five years ago. +[984.46 --> 988.78] Could you get a plastic toy for $25 that kind of felt like it had okay build quality? +[989.56 --> 990.12] Actually, yeah. +[990.16 --> 990.38] Maybe. +[990.60 --> 990.80] Yeah. +[991.08 --> 1005.68] So if the internals have gone down in price to such a degree that now we can build a phone that has that toy-like good enough build quality, but has a super cheap set of internals that is... +[1005.68 --> 1006.82] Plastic can feel really good. +[1006.88 --> 1007.86] Look at old Nintendo stuff. +[1008.10 --> 1008.28] Yeah. +[1008.28 --> 1008.92] Yeah. +[1008.92 --> 1013.80] The whole thing used to be like you could throw your SNES out your window and go pick it up and it'll probably still work. +[1014.42 --> 1016.80] Like, plastic can feel good. +[1016.80 --> 1021.66] So this is a collaboration between Mozilla and Spreadtrum Communications. +[1021.66 --> 1025.30] That's the Chinese chip company that worked on the project. +[1025.30 --> 1028.02] It is intended for emerging markets. +[1028.02 --> 1035.52] Although, you know, I actually see many practical uses for this outside of emerging markets. +[1035.52 --> 1038.32] I mean, it's got basic functionality, so you can web browse. +[1038.50 --> 1043.22] It's got Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, as well as Wikipedia apps already working. +[1043.70 --> 1052.04] I brought up earlier, actually, the cost of the SIM card, and that's actually because when I was reading this, all I could think about was when we were in Vegas and we had to do that crazy run for SIM cards. +[1052.28 --> 1052.44] Yeah. +[1052.44 --> 1057.56] Like, 10-mile walk or whatever, because if we could have just bought four of these. +[1057.82 --> 1058.06] Yeah. +[1058.42 --> 1059.02] It's 100 bucks. +[1059.22 --> 1060.94] That's cheaper than we paid for the SIM cards. +[1061.00 --> 1061.12] Yeah. +[1061.26 --> 1063.12] And additional funding on it. +[1063.52 --> 1064.46] And if it just... +[1064.46 --> 1065.56] Maybe it was $35. +[1066.06 --> 1066.28] Yeah. +[1066.42 --> 1067.24] And it came with some... +[1067.24 --> 1068.60] Like, if it included a phone and a SIM. +[1068.78 --> 1069.06] Yeah. +[1069.54 --> 1071.44] And, like, your first 100 minutes or whatever. +[1071.52 --> 1071.68] Yeah. +[1071.68 --> 1081.26] I think there is a huge potential, because, I mean, like, clamshell boxed, you know, standard phones, like, I don't think they ever... +[1081.26 --> 1082.38] Did they even ever do flips? +[1082.68 --> 1083.60] Like, remember those, right? +[1083.70 --> 1084.24] I think they did. +[1084.42 --> 1092.84] Anyway, so, like, standard clamshell super basic phones that would, like, come with some prepaid minutes, and then it was, like, a pay-as-you-go plan that you were expected to use with them. +[1093.22 --> 1097.64] Those did reasonably well, and for some people, that's as much as they would ever need. +[1097.64 --> 1103.80] If you could have a smartphone at that price point, I think there is a definite market for it. +[1103.80 --> 1104.14] And... +[1104.14 --> 1104.88] Aside from drug dealers. +[1106.68 --> 1109.06] And there's, like, there's a lot of people... +[1109.06 --> 1112.64] My dad is actually in that situation right now, where he's in a long plan... +[1112.64 --> 1113.10] Where he's a drug dealer? +[1113.22 --> 1113.42] No. +[1113.72 --> 1114.40] Where he's in a... +[1114.40 --> 1116.52] I mean, drug dealers gotta check their emails, too. +[1116.76 --> 1118.02] Gotta be on that Twitter. +[1118.70 --> 1121.10] He's in a long plan, and his phone dies. +[1121.62 --> 1121.84] Right. +[1121.92 --> 1126.64] He doesn't want to buy a new phone when he's just gonna be on another contract in five months. +[1126.86 --> 1127.10] Right. +[1127.10 --> 1128.24] So he goes and buys... +[1128.24 --> 1132.18] He bought a clamshell-based smartphone, and then just ripped the SIM out and put his in. +[1132.38 --> 1132.66] Right. +[1132.80 --> 1133.50] That was what he did. +[1133.54 --> 1135.16] So it's just, like, a stopgap solution. +[1135.36 --> 1135.46] Yeah. +[1135.68 --> 1135.96] Although... +[1135.96 --> 1138.46] It's a crappy, much older version of a smartphone, but... +[1138.46 --> 1141.34] I mean, I don't think the intention of a product like this... +[1141.34 --> 1142.28] I mean, you look at the... +[1142.28 --> 1142.42] No, but... +[1142.42 --> 1144.40] At the ideals of the Mozilla Foundation. +[1144.62 --> 1146.44] Do they want to create a bunch more e-waste? +[1146.56 --> 1146.78] No. +[1147.24 --> 1147.60] No. +[1147.92 --> 1148.76] I'm just saying you could. +[1148.86 --> 1151.22] But people could find this useful. +[1151.78 --> 1156.74] And in emerging markets, like, those are examples that I'm seeing in North America. +[1156.74 --> 1157.10] Yeah. +[1157.68 --> 1159.70] In emerging markets, this makes a ton of sense. +[1159.76 --> 1162.50] If it's gonna be 25 bucks and still be able to do all this stuff, that's awesome. +[1162.50 --> 1169.84] So it's got 128 megs of RAM, a 1.2 gigahertz A5 processor, 3.5 inch HVGA, so that's half +[1169.84 --> 1175.86] a VGA, 480 by 320 display, 2 gigs of storage, and a 0.3 megapixel camera. +[1175.96 --> 1178.94] So I think 0.3 megapixels is 640 by 480? +[1179.60 --> 1179.92] No. +[1180.18 --> 1180.48] No. +[1180.70 --> 1181.00] No. +[1181.06 --> 1182.76] I think that's, like, 2.3 megapixels. +[1182.84 --> 1183.02] Okay. +[1183.06 --> 1183.92] I can't remember anymore. +[1184.06 --> 1185.44] It's not that awesome. +[1185.44 --> 1185.84] Yeah. +[1185.96 --> 1187.52] It's not super awesome. +[1188.90 --> 1194.64] But, like, in comparison to Apple's whole idea of cheap phones in India, what was it, +[1194.68 --> 1196.58] like 250 bucks for an iPhone 4 or something? +[1196.66 --> 1197.26] It's more than that. +[1197.46 --> 1198.38] It was something stupid. +[1198.60 --> 1198.80] Yeah. +[1198.80 --> 1202.18] I think it's, like, close to 300 or, like, 350 or something like that. +[1202.30 --> 1205.22] And, like, so Moto G comes in and it's like, whoop-a! +[1205.58 --> 1206.14] Isn't that cool? +[1206.62 --> 1209.66] But then isn't Moto G even, like, 150 bucks or something? +[1209.70 --> 1211.08] Moto G is 180 still. +[1211.22 --> 1211.78] 180 bucks. +[1211.82 --> 1213.44] So this completely destroys it. +[1213.58 --> 1214.82] Of course, it's not nearly as good. +[1215.08 --> 1215.34] Yeah. +[1215.58 --> 1216.26] But it's 25 bucks. +[1216.26 --> 1219.74] Whereas the Moto G is a truly current generation smartphone experience. +[1219.84 --> 1219.90] Yeah. +[1220.30 --> 1223.16] Like, that, you know, you feel like it's still very strong. +[1223.68 --> 1225.74] Whereas this is, like, super basic. +[1225.74 --> 1229.34] And this would be a lot easier, again, for a non-emerging markets idea. +[1229.60 --> 1230.04] But, like... +[1230.04 --> 1230.44] If you're... +[1230.44 --> 1231.10] If you're... +[1231.10 --> 1233.94] If you're sure you're going to get your kid a phone. +[1234.00 --> 1236.52] You live in India, you've got to reach, like, your grandma, +[1236.84 --> 1242.12] who doesn't give any cares about, like, you know, Hulu or whatever. +[1242.76 --> 1243.18] It's great. +[1243.18 --> 1245.82] Well, you live anywhere and you want to give your grandma a phone. +[1245.96 --> 1246.30] Yeah, exactly. +[1246.30 --> 1247.04] Not a terrible idea. +[1248.80 --> 1249.42] All right. +[1249.52 --> 1253.12] So this was brought up to me by a viewer because we didn't have, like, +[1253.12 --> 1256.06] a concise list of the features of Telegram last week. +[1256.54 --> 1260.86] I actually haven't had a look throughout the week to see how they're doing in terms of signups. +[1261.26 --> 1261.74] A lot better. +[1261.92 --> 1264.90] I haven't seen exact numbers, but apparently, like... +[1264.90 --> 1265.56] Kind of a big deal. +[1265.56 --> 1266.18] Things are good. +[1266.46 --> 1266.66] Yeah. +[1266.80 --> 1267.60] Things are going good. +[1267.70 --> 1269.12] So here are the features. +[1269.24 --> 1270.54] I haven't personally switched to it. +[1270.58 --> 1272.74] I don't actually use WhatsApp either because I'm old. +[1273.66 --> 1274.02] SMS. +[1274.72 --> 1275.40] I actually use... +[1275.40 --> 1276.10] Hey, kids. +[1276.10 --> 1281.64] I've got my SMS I'm going to use to message people because my phone plan is unlimited, +[1281.88 --> 1282.82] so I don't really care. +[1284.10 --> 1284.78] I don't know. +[1285.72 --> 1287.08] I love these caricatures. +[1287.32 --> 1288.20] The open one. +[1288.28 --> 1288.84] That's hilarious. +[1289.40 --> 1289.64] Yeah. +[1289.76 --> 1294.94] So it's private, cloud-based, fast, distributed. +[1295.20 --> 1296.86] So their servers are spread worldwide. +[1297.14 --> 1297.84] It is open. +[1297.96 --> 1300.94] It has an open API and is protocol-free for everyone. +[1301.28 --> 1302.24] It is free. +[1302.24 --> 1307.02] They say forever, but I really wonder, could we call them on it if they ever try to charge +[1307.02 --> 1307.82] secure? +[1307.82 --> 1309.30] Yeah, but they won't care, just like Google. +[1309.62 --> 1314.86] And then their whole thing with the security is that there's a message that gets sent between +[1314.86 --> 1319.64] two completely, like, we've disclosed who they are and where they are and what time the +[1319.64 --> 1324.68] message gets sent to clients that if you can interpret it, they'll pay you, I think +[1324.68 --> 1326.12] it's $200,000. +[1326.12 --> 1327.30] $200,000 in bitcoins. +[1327.32 --> 1327.98] In bitcoins. +[1328.40 --> 1331.26] And then there's a procedure for sort of how to claim it. +[1331.26 --> 1332.42] Powerful. +[1332.56 --> 1334.20] No limits on the size of media and chats. +[1334.46 --> 1339.48] And the last one is We Can Do It, which isn't really a feature of a... +[1339.48 --> 1340.88] There's a few of these that aren't really... +[1340.88 --> 1341.48] Of an app. +[1341.74 --> 1342.10] Features. +[1342.22 --> 1343.16] Yeah, not really features. +[1343.70 --> 1345.10] But anyway, there you go, guys. +[1345.16 --> 1349.38] If you're looking for something that isn't owned by Facebook to switch you and your grandma +[1349.38 --> 1351.78] to, grandmas can use WhatsApp. +[1352.14 --> 1354.68] My grandpa uses WhatsApp probably better than I do. +[1355.64 --> 1356.36] Better than you do? +[1356.36 --> 1358.60] How does one use WhatsApp better than another person? +[1358.60 --> 1360.90] I never have, and he was the one that was like, we should make a group. +[1360.90 --> 1361.86] And I was like, no. +[1362.94 --> 1364.28] Your grandpa's such a badass. +[1364.48 --> 1365.08] He is, actually. +[1366.96 --> 1369.12] Alright, so speaking of... +[1370.22 --> 1371.34] Excuse me. +[1371.36 --> 1371.78] Oh, no. +[1372.08 --> 1373.10] I'm sorry, I sneezed. +[1373.22 --> 1373.88] No, not that. +[1374.70 --> 1375.92] Speaking of... +[1375.92 --> 1376.10] Topic. +[1376.16 --> 1376.80] ...of badass. +[1377.10 --> 1377.56] I know. +[1377.72 --> 1378.28] I know. +[1378.48 --> 1378.98] This topic. +[1379.98 --> 1381.54] Everything in this just sucks. +[1381.88 --> 1382.34] I know. +[1382.46 --> 1384.94] This is just a sucky thing for everyone. +[1384.94 --> 1388.46] So this was posted by Dylan522p on the forum. +[1389.06 --> 1393.08] And the video was originally posted on the YouTubes. +[1393.16 --> 1396.88] And there's all kinds of drama llama stuff going on. +[1396.98 --> 1399.90] But basically, this kid... +[1399.90 --> 1400.90] I'm just gonna... +[1400.90 --> 1401.40] I'm gonna mute it. +[1401.52 --> 1402.38] Yeah, I'm gonna mute it. +[1402.38 --> 1407.90] This kid created a video about the new HTC One M8. +[1408.02 --> 1410.00] It's like 13 minutes long. +[1410.82 --> 1412.66] 12 minutes long, pardon me. +[1412.80 --> 1416.18] And it's, you know, it's showing Sense6. +[1416.26 --> 1419.04] It's showing the multiple rear cameras. +[1419.54 --> 1422.04] It's showing software features. +[1422.18 --> 1422.88] It's really... +[1422.88 --> 1424.40] It's like, it's not very well done. +[1424.56 --> 1428.30] It's not like a leak by a professional reviewer or anything like that. +[1428.30 --> 1433.58] And the rumor at the time was that he probably knows someone within HTC. +[1434.14 --> 1439.02] And has gotten himself and said person into a whole lot of trouble. +[1439.48 --> 1442.86] All HTC had to say about this initially was, +[1443.16 --> 1444.86] We'll be in touch. +[1445.34 --> 1445.92] Which is like... +[1445.92 --> 1447.30] Oh, and we have your IMEI. +[1448.14 --> 1449.14] We have your... +[1449.14 --> 1449.88] Yeah. +[1450.08 --> 1452.38] We have your IMEI and other info. +[1452.68 --> 1453.54] We'll be in touch. +[1453.54 --> 1458.54] So, allegedly, and I haven't actually verified this, +[1458.62 --> 1462.66] But allegedly HTC has fired both of his parents at this point in time. +[1462.82 --> 1463.54] It's like, really... +[1463.54 --> 1468.34] I mean, it's one of those things where, you know, I don't... +[1468.34 --> 1469.78] I feel bad for everyone. +[1470.10 --> 1470.26] Yeah. +[1470.44 --> 1473.34] I feel bad for HTC because this should have never happened. +[1473.76 --> 1476.64] I mean, that is a fireable offense. +[1477.04 --> 1477.20] Yeah. +[1477.28 --> 1480.08] In fact, I'm pretty sure it's in your employee contract here +[1480.08 --> 1485.30] That leaking confidential information subjects you not only to being fired, +[1485.64 --> 1489.00] But also to legal ramifications. +[1489.42 --> 1490.82] Like, I can sue you for damages. +[1491.06 --> 1494.24] And not only that, but I'm also under external ones +[1494.24 --> 1497.14] Due to whatever we're working on. +[1497.22 --> 1497.40] Yeah. +[1497.50 --> 1498.42] At whatever time. +[1498.58 --> 1500.76] So, I have yours and I have potential other ones. +[1500.86 --> 1501.02] Yeah. +[1501.24 --> 1504.56] So, like, NDAs are a big deal. +[1504.56 --> 1506.62] Like, I get people asking me all the time, +[1506.70 --> 1509.22] Hey, Linus, when's Nvidia's new graphics card coming out? +[1509.22 --> 1513.38] And the only time that I can speculate on it is when I don't know. +[1514.30 --> 1517.62] Or when there's, like, someone else has leaked information. +[1517.74 --> 1519.24] We can be like, look what they said. +[1519.32 --> 1520.20] We can say that. +[1520.60 --> 1523.60] But we are not going to leak information. +[1523.82 --> 1526.82] Because that kind of crap is a big deal. +[1526.82 --> 1530.20] And that kind of crap gets your parents fired +[1530.20 --> 1534.42] And gets, uh, gets the internet's, you know, what's it called? +[1534.64 --> 1535.04] Doxing? +[1536.04 --> 1536.44] Doxing? +[1536.50 --> 1536.82] Yeah. +[1537.00 --> 1540.16] Where they, where they'll just, the internet spreads your information everywhere. +[1540.36 --> 1540.92] Oh, yeah. +[1541.04 --> 1541.28] Yeah. +[1541.34 --> 1543.16] That kind of stuff gets you doxed. +[1543.24 --> 1544.94] Shows a picture of himself in the video. +[1544.94 --> 1550.46] Seems to understand vaguely that it's a bad idea to be doing what he's doing. +[1550.58 --> 1553.14] Because he opens up a messaging app and says, +[1553.24 --> 1555.10] Oh, let me shake it so you don't see my messages. +[1555.48 --> 1560.74] Like, seems to have some concept of that privacy should probably be maintained here. +[1560.74 --> 1564.34] But, um, you know, like, I feel bad for the parents. +[1564.78 --> 1570.74] Because, like, their dumbass kid just got both of them fired. +[1571.14 --> 1571.44] And, like. +[1571.52 --> 1573.32] And potentially unemployable. +[1573.40 --> 1573.58] Yeah. +[1574.20 --> 1576.84] Like, that kind of thing is a real black mark. +[1577.08 --> 1577.24] Yeah. +[1577.24 --> 1578.28] On your, on your resume. +[1578.98 --> 1581.16] Um, I feel really bad for the kid. +[1581.24 --> 1582.84] Because he seems pretty young. +[1583.52 --> 1586.30] And must not have. +[1586.30 --> 1590.30] Like, it's not even, probably didn't understand the, uh, +[1590.30 --> 1595.30] the scope of, uh, like, the importance of what's going on here. +[1595.52 --> 1600.48] And, like, obviously didn't understand based on the fact that he made this video. +[1600.96 --> 1603.78] I mean, I'm sure he knew it was not a good thing. +[1604.38 --> 1607.82] But, uh, there's no way he understood the ramifications that were possible. +[1608.00 --> 1608.24] Yeah. +[1608.56 --> 1609.74] Like, there's, that's. +[1610.02 --> 1611.30] So, I feel bad for him. +[1611.50 --> 1612.36] Because, like. +[1613.14 --> 1613.78] It, like. +[1614.78 --> 1615.86] I mean, you know. +[1616.04 --> 1616.14] I. +[1616.72 --> 1617.20] I'm. +[1617.30 --> 1618.02] I'm a father. +[1618.58 --> 1619.72] I love my baby. +[1620.30 --> 1620.98] But, like. +[1621.46 --> 1625.66] I'd be pretty mad for a pretty long time if he got both me and mom fired. +[1626.06 --> 1627.48] This is one thing that sucks about the internet. +[1627.94 --> 1629.04] I've done some stupid crap. +[1629.40 --> 1629.70] Yeah. +[1630.12 --> 1632.42] Like, we've all been kids at certain points in time. +[1632.50 --> 1632.68] Yeah. +[1632.84 --> 1636.50] They didn't get my name plastered all over the internet with hundreds and hundreds of thousands +[1636.50 --> 1637.96] of people that now know who I am. +[1637.96 --> 1638.60] Like. +[1638.86 --> 1639.30] Like, I. +[1639.44 --> 1640.66] Like, he was stupid. +[1641.06 --> 1642.18] But the punishment. +[1643.04 --> 1643.08] Is. +[1643.72 --> 1643.76] Is. +[1643.92 --> 1644.16] Is. +[1644.82 --> 1648.88] Way exceeds the severity of the crime because of the internet. +[1649.22 --> 1649.32] And. +[1649.98 --> 1650.14] Like. +[1650.26 --> 1650.54] Yeah. +[1650.64 --> 1650.82] Just. +[1651.06 --> 1651.32] Anyway. +[1651.32 --> 1651.76] So. +[1651.76 --> 1652.60] Leaked info. +[1653.12 --> 1654.10] Two rear cameras. +[1654.50 --> 1655.94] Micro SD card slot. +[1656.10 --> 1656.38] Although. +[1656.64 --> 1658.74] That might not necessarily be true in every region. +[1659.10 --> 1661.38] The one had micro SD expansion. +[1662.42 --> 1662.74] Yeah. +[1662.88 --> 1663.00] It did. +[1663.12 --> 1663.32] The. +[1663.32 --> 1666.26] The G2 in Korea had a whole bunch of different stuff. +[1666.32 --> 1666.44] Yeah. +[1666.54 --> 1667.76] The one was dual sim. +[1668.00 --> 1669.78] I actually can't remember if it had micro SD. +[1669.86 --> 1671.22] I think it had micro SD in China. +[1671.76 --> 1673.14] It's been a long time since I've cared. +[1673.48 --> 1673.62] Yeah. +[1673.62 --> 1675.54] Android 4.4 with Sense6. +[1675.64 --> 1678.86] And the battery stayed at 40% for eight minutes with the screen on. +[1678.86 --> 1682.06] Although it might be not very granular in terms of how it measures it. +[1682.30 --> 1682.32] So. +[1682.88 --> 1685.08] Hard to conclude anything about that. +[1685.34 --> 1685.36] But. +[1685.62 --> 1686.86] Just a terrible situation. +[1687.08 --> 1687.26] Yeah. +[1689.46 --> 1689.98] So. +[1690.44 --> 1690.92] Yeah. +[1692.32 --> 1693.04] You know what? +[1693.56 --> 1694.50] I don't like know. +[1694.88 --> 1695.14] Yeah. +[1695.14 --> 1699.82] We haven't done a Twitter blitz for just general Q&A in a long time. +[1700.58 --> 1701.04] That's a good point. +[1701.22 --> 1701.56] Guys. +[1701.94 --> 1702.38] Hit us. +[1703.36 --> 1704.90] At Linus Tech on Twitter. +[1705.26 --> 1706.92] Go ahead and blitz us. +[1707.04 --> 1710.56] And we'll go ahead and check out some of your questions in the next little while here. +[1710.62 --> 1710.92] Oh yeah. +[1711.00 --> 1711.84] And I don't know if you noticed. +[1712.30 --> 1715.94] But there is now a link to the Linus Tech Tips store. +[1716.18 --> 1717.98] Merch.linusTechTips.com +[1717.98 --> 1719.18] You can head on over there. +[1719.60 --> 1721.32] And our store is on District Lines. +[1721.38 --> 1722.40] We've got some cool t-shirts. +[1722.74 --> 1725.12] Which haven't actually arrived yet. +[1725.14 --> 1728.20] Or I'd be wearing it instead of my Team OCZ t-shirt. +[1728.66 --> 1729.98] That's like super awesome. +[1729.98 --> 1730.28] A relic. +[1730.54 --> 1730.74] Yeah. +[1730.78 --> 1731.00] I know. +[1731.06 --> 1731.22] Right? +[1732.96 --> 1733.40] Okay. +[1733.40 --> 1733.66] It's awesome. +[1734.56 --> 1735.70] Apple CarPlay. +[1737.54 --> 1738.50] I called it. +[1739.44 --> 1744.98] Although I'm actually expecting them to do a much more integrated experience. +[1744.98 --> 1747.96] With an actual iCar at some point. +[1748.04 --> 1748.16] Yeah. +[1748.36 --> 1750.50] That's when I first started reading this. +[1750.72 --> 1754.24] I thought it was like Apple makes a play for cars. +[1754.68 --> 1756.02] As in they wanted to make an Apple car. +[1756.38 --> 1756.52] Yeah. +[1756.52 --> 1757.02] And then I started reading it. +[1757.04 --> 1758.00] I was like oh okay. +[1758.16 --> 1758.54] Not quite. +[1758.54 --> 1759.34] Still pretty cool. +[1759.34 --> 1761.74] But like not what I expected it to be. +[1762.02 --> 1763.04] Still very cool. +[1763.14 --> 1766.28] I mean this is what I have said and continue to say about Apple. +[1766.80 --> 1770.98] Is what's great about them is that they drive the experience forward. +[1771.20 --> 1772.38] They integrate things. +[1772.48 --> 1774.02] They don't necessarily invent everything. +[1774.16 --> 1775.26] But they integrate things. +[1775.26 --> 1782.68] And they've got a bunch of current partners including Ferrari, Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar. +[1782.88 --> 1786.96] They have 12 more signed up including Toyota and Ford. +[1787.38 --> 1789.34] Like major partners. +[1789.46 --> 1790.26] This is going to be a thing. +[1790.38 --> 1791.84] Well it's Apple doing a play for something. +[1792.02 --> 1792.20] Yeah. +[1792.32 --> 1793.86] They're going to get everybody on board. +[1794.04 --> 1796.90] It's compatible with lightning equipped mobile phones. +[1797.04 --> 1800.08] It will be launching with OS 7.1 later this month. +[1800.36 --> 1803.28] So it's coming like right away. +[1803.28 --> 1803.52] Pretty quick. +[1803.52 --> 1810.64] And you can get directions, make calls, send and receive messages and listen to music. +[1810.76 --> 1812.42] There's more app support coming soon. +[1812.58 --> 1816.52] So podcasts, Beats Radio, iHeart Radio, Spotify, Stitcher. +[1817.74 --> 1819.60] But I think it's really cool. +[1819.90 --> 1823.68] That's awesome because hopefully now that they're doing it we'll get. +[1824.04 --> 1824.98] Yeah exactly. +[1825.06 --> 1826.52] We'll get something a little bit more open. +[1826.64 --> 1829.56] I mean honestly I really like the Apple TV. +[1830.38 --> 1830.70] Okay. +[1831.32 --> 1831.78] But. +[1831.78 --> 1832.66] I like Chromecast. +[1833.52 --> 1833.88] Yeah. +[1834.50 --> 1835.42] Chromecast is cool too. +[1835.88 --> 1836.28] Okay. +[1836.42 --> 1836.82] But hold on. +[1837.08 --> 1838.76] Apple TV came first in their defense. +[1838.80 --> 1838.98] Yes. +[1839.06 --> 1839.42] That's true. +[1839.50 --> 1840.70] I like the Apple TV. +[1840.70 --> 1845.80] But my biggest problem with it is why the hell can't I install whatever apps I want on it Apple. +[1846.38 --> 1848.22] Like just stupid stuff. +[1848.48 --> 1849.40] Like hey we're Apple. +[1849.52 --> 1852.88] We're really good at this integration and this experience. +[1853.72 --> 1857.10] But you're going to have to have exactly the experience that we have mapped out for you. +[1857.10 --> 1864.72] And so I'm really excited to see Google move towards something like this and better integration with Google phones. +[1864.72 --> 1873.50] Because with Google we can expect to see all kinds of like aftermarket dash add-ins that are well integrated with the system. +[1873.50 --> 1876.34] Although it might take them kind of a couple years to iron out the bugs. +[1876.34 --> 1880.22] Something like you might be able to retroactively put them in other things that aren't like. +[1880.28 --> 1883.24] Because as far as I can tell these are cars that will come with this. +[1884.12 --> 1884.64] Right? +[1887.04 --> 1889.16] No I don't think so. +[1889.34 --> 1892.80] So appadvice.com actually has a good article about it. +[1892.80 --> 1899.54] That's a little bit more in depth than Apple's splash page that just says coming soon. +[1902.60 --> 1903.70] So it looks like. +[1903.84 --> 1905.10] Okay so here from pictures. +[1905.82 --> 1908.18] I'm actually not a hundred percent sure. +[1908.28 --> 1908.70] You know what? +[1908.74 --> 1909.60] I think you might be right. +[1909.66 --> 1910.46] It looks like CarPlay. +[1910.46 --> 1912.02] Because it's going to be some sort of like. +[1912.58 --> 1912.86] Yeah. +[1912.86 --> 1915.28] Either a dock or something that already exists. +[1915.70 --> 1921.44] I mean it's possible that we'll see it retroactively outfitted into cars with reduced functionality. +[1921.44 --> 1924.44] Like for example if just pressing your. +[1924.54 --> 1925.88] Mind you you need a lightning connector. +[1926.28 --> 1926.44] So. +[1926.62 --> 1927.14] Yeah there's like. +[1927.30 --> 1928.18] Yeah it's not over bluetooth. +[1928.34 --> 1928.84] Yeah okay. +[1929.24 --> 1929.50] Okay. +[1929.62 --> 1931.34] Yeah it wasn't actually a hundred percent clear. +[1931.60 --> 1933.92] Yeah I haven't read somewhere where it's like this is how it works. +[1934.02 --> 1937.26] But it just makes sense that it would only be in like new ones. +[1937.34 --> 1937.78] There you go. +[1937.78 --> 1941.86] So you'll hold down your voice control in your like on your steering wheel. +[1941.96 --> 1944.08] And you'll be able to use Siri and stuff like that. +[1944.36 --> 1945.40] You know it actually. +[1946.20 --> 1949.46] Okay well then it's all of a sudden it's bothering me again. +[1949.46 --> 1954.56] Because if you need a dedicated device why exactly do you need a smartphone to go with it then? +[1955.34 --> 1955.60] Yeah. +[1956.56 --> 1956.96] Maybe. +[1958.12 --> 1961.30] Maybe because it could work off some type of API support. +[1961.92 --> 1962.32] Yeah I guess so. +[1962.32 --> 1965.54] So then if you got a new smartphone like in two years. +[1966.10 --> 1966.74] You could still. +[1966.88 --> 1969.94] You wouldn't have to like have this archaic one that just like lives in your car. +[1970.66 --> 1971.54] Because people have like the. +[1971.70 --> 1972.60] I call them car pods. +[1973.30 --> 1975.64] The old like big iPod that they still have. +[1975.78 --> 1975.90] Yeah. +[1975.90 --> 1977.60] Like 10 years ago that they just leave in their car. +[1978.10 --> 1979.30] So maybe they're trying to avoid that. +[1979.90 --> 1983.04] I have a creative Zen Vision M 30 gig. +[1983.22 --> 1985.64] That I actually just found the charger for. +[1986.12 --> 1987.54] And I'm planning to put in my car. +[1987.68 --> 1988.32] So it can live there. +[1988.42 --> 1988.84] Car Zen? +[1989.32 --> 1990.02] Yeah car Zen. +[1991.08 --> 1992.68] Don't achieve Zen while you're driving. +[1993.36 --> 1994.44] It's just the kind of thing we should just. +[1994.44 --> 1996.06] Should we answer that Twitter thing? +[1996.68 --> 1997.28] Which one? +[1997.56 --> 1997.86] Yeah. +[1998.06 --> 1998.30] Yeah. +[1998.40 --> 1998.90] Let's do our. +[1998.98 --> 1999.94] Let's do our Twitter blitz. +[2000.72 --> 2001.12] Really? +[2001.30 --> 2002.30] Nobody tweeted us? +[2002.42 --> 2002.94] I have a bunch. +[2003.96 --> 2004.82] And you're in them. +[2004.94 --> 2005.48] So I don't know. +[2007.16 --> 2008.10] This is interesting. +[2008.30 --> 2008.46] Okay. +[2008.54 --> 2008.78] Let's. +[2009.06 --> 2010.18] Oh there's the problem. +[2010.32 --> 2010.50] Okay. +[2010.56 --> 2011.54] I was looking at the faster thing. +[2013.12 --> 2013.52] Harder. +[2013.64 --> 2013.88] Better. +[2014.22 --> 2014.62] Faster. +[2015.08 --> 2015.56] I don't get. +[2015.76 --> 2016.00] Yeah. +[2016.06 --> 2017.28] See forever Kyle Paul. +[2017.28 --> 2017.60] Yeah. +[2017.82 --> 2018.10] These. +[2018.10 --> 2019.16] These jokes does. +[2019.74 --> 2020.46] So funny. +[2021.38 --> 2022.96] Someone says I am new to watching this channel. +[2023.06 --> 2024.98] Does this show show up on your videos? +[2025.16 --> 2025.78] Yes it does. +[2026.98 --> 2028.68] Do a switch to Linux for a bit. +[2028.78 --> 2030.16] And if so what distro? +[2030.42 --> 2030.78] Ah. +[2031.82 --> 2032.72] You know what? +[2032.84 --> 2034.96] I'm not going to switch to Linux on my desktop. +[2035.76 --> 2041.30] But I am planning to switch my media PC over to Linux as soon as SteamOS is done. +[2042.00 --> 2042.68] So SteamOS. +[2042.92 --> 2043.16] Yes. +[2043.92 --> 2044.20] So. +[2044.38 --> 2044.66] Debian. +[2044.66 --> 2045.06] Yeah. +[2045.28 --> 2046.46] So I'll be switching to Debian. +[2046.60 --> 2048.24] I'll be learning how to install things. +[2048.68 --> 2049.74] Are you going to do a command line? +[2049.74 --> 2050.60] Linux noob. +[2051.14 --> 2054.70] I'll probably have to get you to show me the various ways and then I'll decide how I'll +[2054.70 --> 2055.36] do it from there. +[2055.54 --> 2055.92] It's okay. +[2056.42 --> 2057.58] So probably not terminal. +[2060.34 --> 2060.86] All right. +[2060.94 --> 2065.08] Do you think it's possible to start with YouTube now with so many successful YouTubers making +[2065.08 --> 2066.30] a living with it or is it too late? +[2066.44 --> 2067.48] I think it's possible. +[2067.66 --> 2068.92] I think it's extremely difficult. +[2069.08 --> 2071.08] I think it's more difficult than it used to be. +[2071.36 --> 2076.52] But there are even in the tech space up and coming YouTubers like Barnacles and Jay's +[2076.52 --> 2078.34] two cents who are still small. +[2078.84 --> 2082.38] But you can still be small and be up and coming. +[2082.52 --> 2086.30] I mean, I used to think about it that way a little bit. +[2086.54 --> 2092.56] Like I'd look at someone like Sexy Phil whose live show I actually went to last week. +[2092.62 --> 2094.14] Last Friday after the WAN show. +[2094.14 --> 2100.56] So I drove exactly the speed limit all the way to the theater where the event was being +[2100.56 --> 2100.88] held. +[2101.68 --> 2106.56] And it was really interesting for me because while I don't really follow SourceFed that +[2106.56 --> 2114.18] closely or anything like that, it was cool to see compared to sort of where I am relative +[2114.18 --> 2119.30] to him now and where I was relative to him when I started up five years ago and where +[2119.30 --> 2123.28] I was relative to him, I think it was three years ago when he got the seed funding from +[2123.28 --> 2125.22] YouTube and started SourceFed. +[2125.78 --> 2128.30] And I was kind of like, oh, okay. +[2128.76 --> 2134.66] Well, if I'm three years behind in three years, would I be happy if we were able to like tour +[2134.66 --> 2137.80] live and do like cool demonstrations and shows? +[2138.44 --> 2143.58] And if we had as many followers and as many staff and like if we had all these processes +[2143.58 --> 2144.82] in place, would I be happy with that? +[2144.88 --> 2146.44] I'm like, yeah, that'd be cool. +[2146.52 --> 2149.92] Like there's still potential for me to keep growing and there's no reason three years from +[2149.92 --> 2151.40] now that I couldn't do that. +[2151.98 --> 2156.62] So if you were like, so I'm about an order of magnitude smaller than him. +[2156.78 --> 2161.22] If you were an order of magnitude smaller than me, so you had like 70,000 subscribers right +[2161.22 --> 2164.02] now, is there any reason you couldn't be this big in three years? +[2164.48 --> 2167.78] And would being this big in three years be just as much of an awesome accomplishment? +[2168.04 --> 2168.44] Absolutely. +[2169.20 --> 2173.24] So there's potential, but you have to have an angle. +[2173.48 --> 2176.68] And it's real hard and you're going to have to do a lot more work than you're probably +[2176.68 --> 2177.50] expecting right now. +[2177.70 --> 2177.92] Yeah. +[2178.76 --> 2181.46] It's a lot more work than it seems like. +[2181.82 --> 2187.70] Even for us, starting up a new YouTube channel is kind of a daunting task. +[2188.24 --> 2192.94] I mean, speaking of which, we may actually have some interesting things to talk about on +[2192.94 --> 2193.60] the show today. +[2193.60 --> 2198.56] Maybe we'll be letting our viewers decide what our next channel will be. +[2199.52 --> 2200.08] Dun, dun, dun. +[2200.18 --> 2204.22] But starting up a channel is a daunting task and we can support it with another larger one. +[2205.50 --> 2207.04] So good luck. +[2207.04 --> 2212.46] I guess we move down more questions. +[2213.04 --> 2213.18] Yeah. +[2213.38 --> 2213.58] Yeah. +[2213.78 --> 2214.24] Here we go. +[2214.68 --> 2214.96] All right. +[2215.12 --> 2216.46] Apple CarPlay. +[2216.54 --> 2218.20] Take a left onto runway 24. +[2218.58 --> 2219.38] Well, we'll see. +[2220.10 --> 2221.66] What do you guys think about DirectX 12? +[2221.66 --> 2228.40] I think that it was definitely time that the sleeping giant was woken up and did something +[2228.40 --> 2230.84] with DirectX. +[2230.84 --> 2231.14] Anything. +[2231.50 --> 2234.58] They have a live stream coming up where they're going to be talking about some stuff. +[2234.68 --> 2239.16] I mean, I think Mantle's interesting, but the fact that it lacks backwards compatibility +[2239.16 --> 2245.26] with anything and the fact that it has to be specifically coded for when the game developers +[2245.26 --> 2247.50] are going to have to code for DirectX anyway. +[2247.70 --> 2249.42] And it's still like kind of broken. +[2249.58 --> 2250.92] And it's still pretty danky. +[2250.92 --> 2252.08] Doesn't really work on like anything. +[2252.48 --> 2257.34] And everything that has said like, yeah, we're going to release with Mantle has not released +[2257.34 --> 2257.90] with Mantle. +[2257.90 --> 2258.90] Yeah. +[2259.90 --> 2263.70] So I, Thief was a big one for me. +[2263.80 --> 2265.84] No Mantle and no true audio at launch. +[2266.36 --> 2273.58] Like, anyway, I think DirectX 12, if it's not a complete pile of garbage, is probably +[2273.58 --> 2275.92] just going to continue to be dominant. +[2276.56 --> 2280.22] Is HTC One M8 your next primary smartphone? +[2280.44 --> 2280.94] I don't know. +[2281.08 --> 2281.88] I'll have to try it first. +[2281.94 --> 2282.56] I don't even have one. +[2283.40 --> 2286.08] Do you know why the 2420TE was discontinued? +[2286.12 --> 2287.42] I think it's replaced by the Z. +[2288.90 --> 2292.36] Expectations on 800 series, evolutionary or revolutionary? +[2292.94 --> 2295.22] Well, based on that, we've seen Maxwell already. +[2295.34 --> 2298.38] And this is a great example of why I can speculate because I have no idea. +[2298.78 --> 2303.48] But based on what we've seen of Maxwell already, the 750 Ti and 750 are like... +[2303.48 --> 2304.32] Real solid. +[2304.46 --> 2305.18] Really good. +[2305.44 --> 2308.44] And really like on the overclocking side was fun. +[2309.28 --> 2310.68] That hasn't happened in a little while. +[2310.76 --> 2311.86] That hasn't happened in a while. +[2312.38 --> 2314.72] So we saw overclockability. +[2315.04 --> 2316.56] We saw great power consumption. +[2316.56 --> 2320.20] We saw an evolutionary increase in performance. +[2320.20 --> 2327.00] And that, to me, is a solid indicator that higher end versions of Maxwell will be similar. +[2327.80 --> 2328.64] So let's hope. +[2328.90 --> 2329.04] Yeah. +[2329.36 --> 2329.52] Yeah. +[2329.90 --> 2334.26] And there's even speculation that they're going to be more tuned for coin mining if you want +[2334.26 --> 2334.70] to do that. +[2334.78 --> 2335.10] Yeah. +[2335.48 --> 2335.88] Speculation. +[2335.88 --> 2338.12] I've read that around quite a few times. +[2338.44 --> 2340.02] Any plan to fix the wall? +[2341.42 --> 2342.58] Yeah, at some point. +[2343.02 --> 2343.68] I want to have... +[2343.68 --> 2348.90] I actually ordered like a 5'10 mannequin to dress in the Stormtrooper armor. +[2349.18 --> 2352.10] So we'll actually just have a Stormtrooper like standing behind us. +[2352.26 --> 2352.44] Yeah. +[2352.44 --> 2354.20] So no, we're doing things. +[2354.86 --> 2356.48] Will we be at Computex 2014? +[2356.84 --> 2360.04] I am not planning on it right now. +[2361.24 --> 2362.56] It's a really big trip. +[2363.02 --> 2363.92] It's a big trip. +[2364.02 --> 2365.28] It's extremely expensive. +[2365.62 --> 2371.24] I haven't had any sponsors like come crawling to our feet telling us they really need us +[2371.24 --> 2374.88] to be there and they really want to throw, you know, thousands of dollars at us to make +[2374.88 --> 2375.30] it happen. +[2375.98 --> 2383.06] So yeah, I'm expecting Computex to be a big deal in terms of notebooks and in terms of +[2383.06 --> 2384.34] CPUs and chipsets. +[2384.52 --> 2389.20] But these are all things CPU chipset we'll have access to ahead of time anyway. +[2389.66 --> 2395.12] And if anything, Computex last year interfered with us doing better coverage of the Haswell +[2395.12 --> 2395.50] launch. +[2395.60 --> 2395.80] Yeah. +[2396.24 --> 2397.42] Because we had no time. +[2397.70 --> 2398.64] No time at all. +[2398.64 --> 2400.62] And everyone was launching graphics cards at the same time. +[2400.62 --> 2401.58] That was insanity. +[2401.82 --> 2402.88] That was just ridiculous. +[2403.32 --> 2405.26] So we might just chill here. +[2406.02 --> 2407.56] But you know what? +[2407.62 --> 2413.06] This seems like as good a time as any to launch into our sponsor segment. +[2414.70 --> 2416.72] And let's go ahead and... +[2416.72 --> 2418.26] But we'll be shaping our... +[2418.26 --> 2420.10] No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[2420.28 --> 2420.60] What? +[2420.96 --> 2422.06] What are you talking about? +[2422.16 --> 2425.70] You were like, but, and then started, they can't see this, but then started typing in +[2425.70 --> 2426.32] Dollar Shave Club. +[2426.56 --> 2427.00] Yeah, no, no, no, no. +[2427.00 --> 2428.62] So like, we won't be going to Computex, but... +[2428.62 --> 2429.56] Yeah. +[2429.68 --> 2432.00] So let's move into our first sponsor here. +[2432.38 --> 2433.10] There we go. +[2433.32 --> 2436.46] We're not necessarily going to Computex, but we are going to... +[2437.46 --> 2438.14] Pax East. +[2438.14 --> 2438.74] Pax East. +[2439.26 --> 2440.54] Pax East. +[2442.54 --> 2443.18] Pax East. +[2443.18 --> 2444.08] All right. +[2444.12 --> 2449.58] Maybe you should maybe give some more details because Intel is our big sponsor for Pax East. +[2449.68 --> 2451.52] So we're going to be doing a bunch of cool stuff with them. +[2451.88 --> 2456.98] And in addition to that, Corsair confirmed last night that they are also going to be sponsoring +[2456.98 --> 2457.74] us at Pax East. +[2457.86 --> 2460.56] So huge thanks to Intel and Corsair for making it possible. +[2461.02 --> 2463.32] But why don't you talk about what the plan is at Pax East? +[2463.32 --> 2464.40] There's a few different things. +[2464.52 --> 2472.24] One, we're going slightly early so that we can check in with the Cloud Imperium Games pre-Pax +[2472.24 --> 2472.96] East event. +[2473.24 --> 2475.48] So we're going to try and get some coverage from there if we can. +[2475.54 --> 2477.36] We don't know exactly what's going to be happening there. +[2477.38 --> 2477.74] Don't we? +[2477.86 --> 2478.60] Don't we have a hint? +[2478.94 --> 2480.18] We have a hint, but I don't really know yet. +[2480.18 --> 2481.32] We can't tease the hint? +[2481.32 --> 2482.34] We can't tease the hint. +[2482.42 --> 2483.52] What is wrong with you? +[2483.56 --> 2484.70] We can't tease that hint. +[2484.78 --> 2486.08] Is that not public information? +[2486.08 --> 2488.02] I don't know how legit it is. +[2488.42 --> 2491.04] Because he hasn't said, like, these teams are in. +[2491.56 --> 2491.88] Okay. +[2492.40 --> 2495.44] So I don't want to be like, it's happening without it actually happening. +[2495.60 --> 2495.82] Okay. +[2495.88 --> 2500.78] So there's possibly something really cool that might happen at that event, but we're not +[2500.78 --> 2501.44] really sure yet. +[2501.70 --> 2501.88] Okay. +[2502.20 --> 2504.20] We're definitely checking out dogfighting. +[2504.20 --> 2506.14] We will have dogfighting footage no matter what. +[2506.40 --> 2509.86] Because they said they're either going to have it at that pre-event or they will have it +[2509.86 --> 2510.62] in Pax East. +[2510.98 --> 2513.14] Robert Space Industries is also going to be inside of Pax East. +[2513.22 --> 2514.46] Does Michael Vic live in Boston? +[2516.08 --> 2516.56] I don't know. +[2517.02 --> 2517.18] Oh. +[2517.40 --> 2519.00] Sorry, you said you had dogfighting footage. +[2519.46 --> 2519.86] Whoa! +[2520.06 --> 2521.00] Wow, that's not funny. +[2521.12 --> 2522.12] That's terrible. +[2522.30 --> 2525.30] I can't believe how quickly people forget about stuff like that. +[2525.44 --> 2533.68] It's just like, you know, we just completely forgive celebrities for just basically being +[2533.68 --> 2535.02] heartless, horrible people. +[2535.82 --> 2536.58] Anyway, sorry. +[2536.74 --> 2537.50] Go ahead. +[2537.80 --> 2541.46] So dogfighting, we're specifically referring to the dogfighting module from Star Citizen. +[2541.64 --> 2542.86] Yeah, so we're going to have coverage of that. +[2543.00 --> 2544.32] Oculus is also going to be there. +[2544.32 --> 2548.74] So I'm hoping that they're going to have some type of news as to why they brought down +[2548.74 --> 2551.50] manufacturing for DevKit 1. +[2551.72 --> 2553.54] So hopefully we'll be seeing something about that. +[2553.60 --> 2555.80] I have no idea, but I'll be checking out Oculus for sure. +[2556.60 --> 2559.58] And then are we going to be streaming from the booth? +[2559.76 --> 2560.36] Not sure yet. +[2560.50 --> 2561.00] Not sure yet. +[2561.00 --> 2563.30] But we'll definitely be covering Intel's cool stuff there. +[2563.38 --> 2566.52] So they're going to have 738 series SSDs all over the place. +[2566.62 --> 2569.90] They're going to have some exciting gaming notebooks all over the place. +[2570.42 --> 2572.40] And yeah, it's going to be awesome. +[2572.54 --> 2574.48] And you'll probably do a bunch of coverage of the indie stuff, right? +[2574.48 --> 2575.84] Yeah, I was just going to bring that up too. +[2575.94 --> 2580.12] As you guys seemed to like the most from PAX Prime anyways, we'll probably be doing a +[2580.12 --> 2581.60] bunch of coverage from the indie mega booth. +[2581.60 --> 2585.14] And that will be a focus this time, so we can actually spend more time there, which should +[2585.14 --> 2585.48] be good. +[2585.70 --> 2592.02] This also marks the upgrade of Team B to Team A. +[2592.16 --> 2592.46] Ooh. +[2592.84 --> 2594.02] Because I will not be there. +[2595.00 --> 2599.60] So Team B, Luke and Brandon, they will be the only ones going to PAX East from Linus +[2599.60 --> 2600.12] Media Group. +[2600.12 --> 2605.54] I'll be doing sort of like, you know, like controlling the dials, like in the Hunger Games. +[2607.36 --> 2608.32] From here. +[2608.46 --> 2609.54] It's like PAX East is the arena. +[2609.92 --> 2610.08] Yeah. +[2611.24 --> 2617.84] It's like, okay, let's throw a throng of like, you know, fans at, you know, Slick right now. +[2618.22 --> 2619.46] You should do that. +[2619.82 --> 2622.34] You should have like, you should coordinate, I don't even want to know, but you should +[2622.34 --> 2624.40] like coordinate ambushes while I'm on film or something. +[2624.50 --> 2625.38] That would be fantastic. +[2626.48 --> 2628.26] You know, I wouldn't even have to coordinate it at this point. +[2628.26 --> 2631.22] If any of you guys see him at PAX East, make sure you ambush him. +[2632.10 --> 2632.70] All right. +[2632.74 --> 2640.38] So we have another sponsor and we actually had a ton of fun creating the integration we +[2640.38 --> 2644.92] did earlier this week for these guys in our dual graphics video, which we're going to +[2644.92 --> 2650.02] discuss in more detail because I felt like the video told the message, told the story +[2650.02 --> 2655.42] of dual graphics and value graphics card shopping a little bit, but I still think there's +[2655.42 --> 2658.38] a little bit more room for us to sort of chat about it. +[2658.68 --> 2663.30] So Dollar Shave Club, this is a package of what looks like the kind of thing that you +[2663.30 --> 2664.14] might receive from them. +[2664.58 --> 2668.78] And we started talking with them and I didn't really know much about it. +[2668.84 --> 2673.80] I'd seen the hilarious commercial, but beyond that I was like, like, I didn't really know +[2673.80 --> 2676.30] how much it costs and I didn't know really any of the details. +[2676.30 --> 2682.64] But the idea is that you sign up and it's a subscription based shaving service where they +[2682.64 --> 2687.72] will deliver you once every month, whatever particular tier you subscribe to. +[2687.78 --> 2689.66] They've got a kind of hilarious sense of humor. +[2690.10 --> 2694.06] So for their one wipe Charlies, which are not for shaving, you don't wipe your face with +[2694.06 --> 2696.54] them, especially after you've used them. +[2696.54 --> 2699.64] Oh, so they're butt wipes for men. +[2699.64 --> 2700.70] Oh, and okay. +[2700.86 --> 2702.52] So, so it's, so it's right on their thing. +[2702.60 --> 2703.06] Oh, yes. +[2703.18 --> 2706.16] You probably know how to wipe your ass at this point in life. +[2706.32 --> 2710.52] Below are just some helpful tips, how to use one wipe Charlies. +[2710.52 --> 2712.48] It's just like, really, you guys? +[2713.44 --> 2714.58] It's freaking awesome. +[2714.80 --> 2718.86] So they have, they have three different tiers that are available. +[2718.98 --> 2722.18] I'm just going to go ahead and run over to my screen here. +[2722.18 --> 2725.74] Uh, the humble twin, the Forex and the executive. +[2726.32 --> 2730.96] So the Forex and the executive, the objective here was to create something that was competitive +[2730.96 --> 2736.70] with or even better than the brand name shavers and razors and cartridges that you can buy in +[2736.70 --> 2741.84] the store, except without the hassle of waiting around in the store for someone to go unlock +[2741.84 --> 2742.32] the thing. +[2742.86 --> 2744.54] Like guys, feel free. +[2744.64 --> 2745.76] Let us know in the Twitch chat. +[2745.84 --> 2747.18] I'm going to be having a look at the Twitch chat. +[2747.18 --> 2753.98] Do they lock the shaver, uh, like the shaver cartridges behind a glass case at your store? +[2754.06 --> 2755.02] Because I've seen it. +[2755.22 --> 2755.66] Have you seen it? +[2755.78 --> 2757.84] My skin is the least sensitive thing ever. +[2758.02 --> 2760.10] So I've had the same razors for like over a year. +[2760.46 --> 2761.98] That is actually horrible. +[2762.40 --> 2762.74] Okay. +[2762.96 --> 2770.72] So the other thing that was appealing about this whole thing is the laziness factor because +[2770.72 --> 2779.96] I'm sure you understand that the shaving experience is better if you have replaced your blades +[2779.96 --> 2780.72] once in a while. +[2780.78 --> 2782.90] Yeah, I'm just way too cheap and way too lazy. +[2782.90 --> 2786.10] But being too cheap and too lazy is kind of the problem. +[2786.28 --> 2791.52] So for in the U.S., six bucks a month, shipping and handling included, you can get a four razor +[2791.52 --> 2795.02] blade that comes with a free handle the first time you order it. +[2795.02 --> 2800.60] So that one looks like this and then you get four new cartridges per month that you can +[2800.60 --> 2804.80] swap on so that you're using one per week, which means whenever you're using it, it's +[2804.80 --> 2805.54] actually sharp. +[2805.64 --> 2806.92] They come in a little thing like this. +[2807.06 --> 2812.06] You can get their shave butter, which has, um, you know, a bunch of ingredients like golden +[2812.06 --> 2814.90] barley, organic prickly pear cactus and all that kind of good stuff. +[2815.08 --> 2817.70] And then it is actually, I did use it. +[2817.76 --> 2818.86] Like I legitimately used it. +[2818.96 --> 2823.02] I don't think we used the footage of me actually shaving with it when I did the integration. +[2823.32 --> 2823.56] Okay. +[2823.56 --> 2827.64] But, um, and you used like the, the big executive one, I'm guessing. +[2827.88 --> 2833.06] I liked the butter and yeah, I used the executive, which is still cheaper than buying them at +[2833.06 --> 2833.36] the store. +[2833.38 --> 2833.48] Yeah. +[2833.64 --> 2833.84] Yeah. +[2833.94 --> 2834.12] Yeah. +[2834.12 --> 2839.16] Uh, but like six blades and like freaking, well, that's the thing that always drew me, drove +[2839.16 --> 2845.24] me crazy was like, I'd go to buy more razors and I'd be like, okay, well, I, what? +[2845.54 --> 2845.90] Why? +[2846.22 --> 2847.62] Why is this so much money? +[2847.90 --> 2848.26] I know. +[2848.26 --> 2852.38] Like this should be the same as like not really, this should be just something you throw in +[2852.38 --> 2852.76] the cart. +[2852.76 --> 2855.98] And in the U S the $6 or $9 a month includes shipping. +[2856.48 --> 2860.16] So it's like once a month, that's your, that's your shaving supplies. +[2860.40 --> 2863.96] Anyway, guys, if you didn't see me, if you didn't see the integration, okay, even if you +[2863.96 --> 2867.26] know everything you need to know about Dollar Shave Club now, which is basically save time, +[2867.38 --> 2871.40] save, sorry, there's the slogan, shave time, shave money. +[2871.40 --> 2876.02] Uh, then you should still check out this video, the dual graphics video, because this is frigging +[2876.02 --> 2876.42] awesome. +[2876.42 --> 2878.60] Uh, I actually had Edsel. +[2878.60 --> 2883.00] I think he spent like a couple hours on this because I'm, Oh, I think there's audio. +[2883.00 --> 2890.40] Is that the Hobbit? +[2890.40 --> 2891.40] Yeah. +[2891.40 --> 2892.40] That's sting. +[2892.40 --> 2893.40] That's sting. +[2893.40 --> 2897.94] So guys, head over to DollarShaveClub.com slash Linus and check it out. +[2897.94 --> 2901.82] It's available in Canada, the U S and Australia. +[2901.82 --> 2902.82] Yeah. +[2902.82 --> 2904.20] All right. +[2904.20 --> 2910.60] So that leads us pretty comfortably into our next discussion topic, which is the dual graphics +[2910.60 --> 2915.32] versus other value graphics cards, uh, testing that you did. +[2915.32 --> 2920.66] So why don't you open with how we initially tested versus the expanding to expanded testing +[2920.66 --> 2921.82] that our viewers demanded? +[2921.82 --> 2924.62] Well, we tested just dual graphics. +[2924.62 --> 2931.20] So that's a, that was our 7850 K, um, along with a R7 250. +[2931.82 --> 2935.50] And then that was like, okay, well, we need things to compare it against. +[2935.50 --> 2937.44] So we compared it against just can vary by itself. +[2937.44 --> 2942.08] And then we compared it against a traditional setup, which is a non dual graphics setup of +[2942.08 --> 2945.44] those two combined and found, okay, dual graphics is awesome. +[2945.44 --> 2946.18] It works. +[2946.36 --> 2946.84] It works. +[2946.84 --> 2947.22] Well, okay. +[2947.28 --> 2951.96] Awesome is a strong word, but we discovered that it works within the confines of that tests. +[2952.24 --> 2953.64] It is fairly awesome. +[2953.74 --> 2954.76] You see a really big improvement. +[2955.14 --> 2956.76] It does what they said it does. +[2956.92 --> 2957.16] Yes. +[2957.16 --> 2961.70] And then as we were kind of finishing up and I was preparing to film and we were almost +[2961.70 --> 2966.10] done, uh, we talked about it and we were like, okay, well, how awesome. +[2966.60 --> 2966.72] Yeah. +[2966.94 --> 2970.92] If you were someone who was buying things on the market, you weren't like, I am buying +[2970.92 --> 2971.86] these two things. +[2972.10 --> 2975.04] What if you're buying a multitude of different things you were shopping around? +[2975.20 --> 2975.96] How awesome. +[2976.14 --> 2977.66] So then we ran a ton of things. +[2977.66 --> 2982.04] So the numbers you can see if my switches, those are kind of what we started with. +[2982.24 --> 2983.44] Oh, hold on. +[2983.66 --> 2984.36] That camera. +[2984.36 --> 2985.20] Yeah. +[2988.26 --> 2989.08] Tiny us. +[2989.26 --> 2989.78] There we go. +[2990.58 --> 2991.56] The Weenie Wancho. +[2991.72 --> 2996.30] So these are the initial numbers where we were like, okay, dual graphics works. +[2996.48 --> 2996.96] Look at that. +[2997.06 --> 3001.74] It's better than, you know, just an APU and better than just a graphics card running on +[3001.74 --> 3003.38] the CPU portion of the APU. +[3003.64 --> 3006.44] So then we, you know, we're like, uh, previous. +[3006.70 --> 3006.88] Okay. +[3006.88 --> 3009.68] So then here's sheer FPS numbers in Far Cry 3. +[3010.28 --> 3016.42] And then here is a price to performance evaluation where we can see that running dual graphics, +[3016.42 --> 3023.38] if you look at how many dollars it costs you per FPS, per frame per second, which is an +[3023.38 --> 3026.98] interesting way to evaluate solutions because, okay. +[3028.00 --> 3032.84] It's not always which one is the lowest one on the graph because something could deliver +[3032.84 --> 3037.72] great FPS per dollar, but not deliver a playable gaming experience. +[3037.72 --> 3042.54] Like if you bought a potato for a dollar and it could deliver you one FPS, that would be +[3042.54 --> 3043.66] one FPS per dollar. +[3043.86 --> 3044.42] Great ratio. +[3044.80 --> 3049.98] Whereas if you spent a hundred dollars on like seven potatoes that could deliver 30 FPS. +[3050.32 --> 3051.88] That bundle deal is terrible. +[3052.36 --> 3053.08] I know. +[3053.30 --> 3054.60] It's really bad. +[3054.70 --> 3054.88] Okay. +[3054.94 --> 3055.36] Cucumbers. +[3055.78 --> 3056.26] Okay. +[3056.26 --> 3057.46] You can all agree. +[3057.60 --> 3059.56] Cucumbers are great for all kinds of things. +[3060.16 --> 3067.12] So if you bought the better solution that gives you a playable frame per second, so 30 FPS, +[3067.26 --> 3070.48] but costs much, much more, that's still probably the better one to buy. +[3070.78 --> 3070.98] Okay. +[3071.00 --> 3071.90] So back to the numbers. +[3072.80 --> 3076.04] It delivered better value and higher frame rates. +[3076.16 --> 3079.48] So we're like, yeah, that's great in Bioshock Infinite and in Far Cry 3. +[3080.20 --> 3082.90] Then expanded testing came along. +[3084.20 --> 3084.72] So. +[3084.72 --> 3086.72] All the numbers. +[3087.12 --> 3093.46] We added, and it's funny because someone commented on this video what Intel fanboys we are. +[3093.46 --> 3094.52] Oh my God, I know. +[3094.92 --> 3098.78] There's an Intel slant to everything that we do or something like that. +[3098.80 --> 3099.16] I was like, what? +[3099.58 --> 3103.24] And I was like, are you high? +[3104.76 --> 3108.16] Well, no, I think what I said was, did you actually watch the video? +[3108.16 --> 3117.90] Because the Intel solutions, the only Intel things on here are a 4670K that has the highest performance by like 2.5 FPS. +[3118.36 --> 3119.64] I'll have to make us even smaller. +[3121.10 --> 3121.82] Derp. +[3121.82 --> 3122.32] Okay. +[3122.32 --> 3123.80] So 2.5 FPS higher. +[3123.98 --> 3135.40] And then the lowest performing solution with a $200 CPU running its integrated graphics and performing half as well as AMD's latest APU at $200. +[3135.40 --> 3136.54] Okay. +[3136.90 --> 3144.24] So anyway, we added a 750 Ti discrete graphics card because we had just done our review and we saw how fantastic that was. +[3144.24 --> 3151.84] But not to appear as if we were just showcasing how NVIDIA is so superior to AMD because it's not about that. +[3152.08 --> 3156.36] We threw in a 260X, which is also an excellent value card from AMD. +[3156.36 --> 3161.04] Then we were like, okay, well, let's keep testing the R7 250. +[3161.36 --> 3162.48] So we keep those numbers in there. +[3162.50 --> 3164.06] So we've got three graphics cards. +[3164.28 --> 3172.40] One that is capable of running with the APU in dual graphics or Crossfire and two of them that can't do it but are more powerful cards. +[3172.52 --> 3173.56] Then we were like, you know what? +[3174.00 --> 3175.86] Let's throw in more CPUs too. +[3176.42 --> 3177.36] Let's find out. +[3177.42 --> 3186.16] So we threw in the Intel CPU and then let's throw in a last generation AMD APU, you know, just for its CPU prowess because CPU performance didn't change much. +[3186.16 --> 3188.60] And it's quite a bit cheaper than the newer APU. +[3188.60 --> 3199.22] And then let's throw in an Athlon X4, which is the same architecture as the last gen APU but doesn't have an onboard GPU but is extremely inexpensive. +[3199.74 --> 3210.28] So the FPS numbers aren't really that interesting except to demonstrate that with a discrete graphics card, whether it's a 260X or a 750 Ti, +[3211.20 --> 3215.64] you have to have a seriously, like, not very powerful CPU. +[3215.64 --> 3226.46] In order to really fall below playable frame rates because, yeah, we got 60 to 76, so to 79 FPS spending anywhere from, what was a 760K? +[3226.58 --> 3227.18] Like 80 bucks? +[3227.90 --> 3230.98] A 760K was 90? +[3230.98 --> 3239.26] Okay, so anywhere from 90 bucks to 200 bucks, you're getting, at best, you know, a 50% improvement in frames per second. +[3239.66 --> 3241.04] Okay, so we determined that. +[3241.34 --> 3246.62] And then we determined that, okay, the dual graphics solution doesn't perform that well. +[3247.26 --> 3248.56] Oh, but what's with that pricing? +[3248.56 --> 3256.74] So then we moved beyond that and we graphed it in terms of FPS per dollar. +[3257.00 --> 3257.74] Not including motherboard. +[3258.08 --> 3262.12] Not including the motherboard, which can be more expensive on the Intel side as well, +[3262.22 --> 3267.00] and more expensive for newer platforms like FM2 Plus for the new APU as well. +[3267.00 --> 3269.02] So check that out. +[3269.22 --> 3281.04] The big winner is the 760K, the cheapest CPU on our list with a 750 Ti, a value but yet gaming grade, +[3281.18 --> 3283.04] so above $100 graphics card. +[3283.04 --> 3287.50] And this, this is, this is a big problem. +[3288.16 --> 3295.22] Because basically what happened was we went from being like dual graphics, that's kind of cool, to... +[3295.22 --> 3296.22] Nope. +[3296.70 --> 3299.60] Or in very specific situations, yes. +[3299.66 --> 3301.14] To why would you buy this? +[3301.28 --> 3301.50] Yeah. +[3301.98 --> 3306.48] Because right now, Kaveri, and you know what, I can kind of answer that question. +[3307.00 --> 3310.80] Why would you buy this as a strictly gamer becomes a difficult question to answer. +[3310.80 --> 3312.38] That's why I said very specific situations. +[3312.38 --> 3312.52] Yeah. +[3313.08 --> 3321.50] Because for non-gamers who are looking at content creation and who are interested in leveraging the HSA architecture of Kaveri, +[3321.72 --> 3324.28] where you can, I mean, it can do all kinds of crazy stuff. +[3324.36 --> 3330.94] Like even loading up a folder in Windows, waiting for thumbnail previews to pop in, goes way faster on a Kaveri. +[3331.96 --> 3334.52] Because of the way the CPU and the GPU work together. +[3334.52 --> 3344.54] But if you're strictly gaming, you're much better off to spend your $300 on a 760K and a 750 Ti and get way better performance. +[3345.72 --> 3348.14] So, there you go. +[3348.50 --> 3350.86] That was, that was, that was actually one of my favorite things I've done in a long time. +[3350.98 --> 3351.82] Yeah, that was fun. +[3351.90 --> 3353.04] Because I found that to be really interesting. +[3353.04 --> 3357.22] Okay, let's go ahead and, oh, are there people saying that there's echo? +[3357.60 --> 3358.08] I hope not. +[3358.38 --> 3359.00] I didn't see that. +[3359.14 --> 3359.54] Okay, cool. +[3359.84 --> 3361.72] Alright, so let's do a couple more Twitter questions. +[3361.72 --> 3363.44] Someone just said, slick loves bar graphs. +[3364.58 --> 3364.94] Yep. +[3365.48 --> 3368.32] You didn't even know how to make them before you met me. +[3368.56 --> 3368.94] Nope. +[3369.74 --> 3370.14] Pathetic. +[3370.14 --> 3373.80] Mind you, I don't, I didn't know how to like make a website. +[3374.18 --> 3376.46] So, even on like Geocities, I never did it. +[3377.08 --> 3377.22] Oh. +[3377.86 --> 3378.06] Yeah. +[3378.34 --> 3381.04] Well, I didn't on Geocities either, but that's because Geocities was terrible. +[3381.30 --> 3385.76] Linus wants to know if he can take us out for lunch if he happened to pass by Vancouver someday. +[3385.94 --> 3390.48] We've actually had quite a few people ask us about that, believe it or not, in the past. +[3390.54 --> 3391.80] And I've always kind of said no. +[3392.22 --> 3392.72] But it's... +[3392.72 --> 3396.88] But Mr. Forsell, if you're in town, we'll take you out for lunch. +[3397.02 --> 3398.16] But it's, but it's him. +[3398.26 --> 3398.56] I know. +[3398.66 --> 3399.40] I know who it is. +[3399.50 --> 3399.76] Yeah. +[3399.76 --> 3402.10] I know how much he's supported us over the years. +[3403.26 --> 3404.40] You're a cool dude, man. +[3405.62 --> 3406.74] We'll have some lunch. +[3406.84 --> 3409.50] Maybe we'll get like free pizza with our order of something. +[3411.82 --> 3412.54] All right. +[3413.02 --> 3415.60] My 7970 runs at 95 degrees while running Furmark. +[3415.70 --> 3416.34] Should I RMA it? +[3416.46 --> 3416.64] No. +[3417.08 --> 3417.90] Don't run Furmark. +[3418.54 --> 3418.70] Yeah. +[3418.96 --> 3419.18] Bam. +[3419.80 --> 3420.04] Okay. +[3420.30 --> 3421.30] That card runs pretty hard. +[3421.52 --> 3421.76] Yeah. +[3422.70 --> 3426.34] Should I add another 2GB 7850 on the cheap or wait to buy a Maxwell-based? +[3426.48 --> 3426.90] No idea. +[3426.90 --> 3426.98] Yeah. +[3427.28 --> 3429.36] Can't comment on future products because we don't. +[3429.36 --> 3429.66] No. +[3430.16 --> 3434.54] How long would you expect a new higher-end PC to last before it needs an upgrade or to +[3434.54 --> 3435.28] be fully replaced? +[3435.64 --> 3438.60] A lot longer than I would have said three or four years ago. +[3438.98 --> 3443.28] The pace of innovation, especially on the CPU side, has slowed down. +[3443.28 --> 3449.26] And the pace at which RAM requirements increasing has slowed down. +[3449.26 --> 3458.36] I mean, I bought a PC like four years ago that I put 12 gigs of RAM in and I spent, oh crap, +[3458.42 --> 3462.70] it was $20 per gig because that was when Aneon went out of business. +[3462.70 --> 3466.32] 12 gigs of RAM is still enough. +[3466.32 --> 3466.76] Yeah. +[3466.76 --> 3466.82] Yeah. +[3467.26 --> 3470.64] Whereas four years prior to that, what did we have? +[3471.46 --> 3471.78] 256? +[3472.02 --> 3473.14] 512 was standard? +[3474.14 --> 3476.24] So things have slowed down a lot. +[3477.46 --> 3479.72] Have you ever spent all of your monies as a child? +[3479.94 --> 3481.34] If yes, on what? +[3481.62 --> 3484.76] No, I think he means like have you ever blown like your savings? +[3484.76 --> 3485.70] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3485.94 --> 3488.68] My sister bought a trampoline once. +[3489.16 --> 3489.42] Whoa. +[3489.50 --> 3490.72] So that was an example of that. +[3490.82 --> 3493.68] Saved up for like three years of allowances and bought a trampoline. +[3493.88 --> 3494.24] Whoa. +[3495.42 --> 3497.20] Let me try to think if I ever did it. +[3497.34 --> 3497.74] I did. +[3498.18 --> 3498.46] Did you? +[3498.54 --> 3498.84] What did you? +[3498.84 --> 3499.56] My mineral oil computer. +[3499.72 --> 3500.68] Your mineral oil computer. +[3500.84 --> 3501.42] Oh, yes. +[3501.82 --> 3502.78] My first computer. +[3502.88 --> 3503.22] Same thing. +[3503.32 --> 3503.54] Yeah. +[3503.72 --> 3506.12] I spent all my money on my first computer. +[3506.22 --> 3508.96] Yeah, actually my first computer wasn't even a mineral oil computer. +[3509.16 --> 3513.06] I had to go down to Richmond to some place with my dad and like pick up parts from this +[3513.06 --> 3514.84] little shop and it was this huge ordeal. +[3515.50 --> 3518.68] But that was my first computer and then my mineral oil computer was actually my second +[3518.68 --> 3520.80] computer, which I used a few parts from my first computer for. +[3521.28 --> 3523.50] I don't think I did it prior to that though. +[3524.86 --> 3527.30] Any videos planned on the GTX Titan Black? +[3527.70 --> 3527.90] No. +[3528.24 --> 3528.48] No. +[3529.00 --> 3531.94] It's a Titan except black and a little bit faster. +[3532.00 --> 3532.46] A little bit faster. +[3533.18 --> 3535.10] Where would you be if there was no internet? +[3535.44 --> 3536.06] Oh, wow. +[3538.28 --> 3539.00] I don't know. +[3539.82 --> 3540.22] Relaxing? +[3540.22 --> 3544.52] Probably with an easier life. +[3545.92 --> 3547.16] Well, maybe not easier. +[3548.40 --> 3549.88] I like my job. +[3550.16 --> 3550.70] I do too. +[3550.74 --> 3551.32] Okay, it isn't easy. +[3551.34 --> 3552.84] I'm not saying I didn't like it. +[3553.30 --> 3554.26] You can like things that are... +[3554.26 --> 3556.00] I like video games on hard difficulty. +[3556.58 --> 3557.76] This is an interesting question. +[3557.96 --> 3560.54] 780 Ti now or high-end Maxwell later? +[3560.74 --> 3561.72] Titan Black not worth it. +[3561.80 --> 3563.18] Yeah, Titan Black not worth it. +[3563.22 --> 3563.50] You know what? +[3563.56 --> 3565.52] I probably wouldn't buy a 780 Ti. +[3566.18 --> 3567.74] With where we're sitting right now? +[3568.40 --> 3568.80] 780. +[3569.92 --> 3570.28] Yeah. +[3570.72 --> 3571.62] I'd buy 780. +[3571.74 --> 3572.44] It's such a good... +[3573.10 --> 3574.50] Like, with that price drop. +[3574.58 --> 3575.86] That price drop was sick. +[3576.08 --> 3584.16] It almost never made sense at any point in time in the history of graphics cards, at least for the past eight or nine years, to buy the top tier card. +[3584.54 --> 3585.44] It's like the... +[3585.44 --> 3589.92] Basically just a way of showing that you have more money than you know what to do with. +[3589.92 --> 3592.12] I mean, no offense to people who buy the top tier card. +[3592.94 --> 3597.72] Buying the second one down or buying two of them has been the way to go. +[3597.96 --> 3604.48] From a bang for the buck perspective, if you still really want bleeding edge performance. +[3605.06 --> 3612.58] Two of the next one down is actually usually more expensive, but that much more powerful running an SLI or Crossfire. +[3612.58 --> 3616.16] Where do I see Linus Media Group in the future? +[3616.80 --> 3618.68] Hopefully not in this office. +[3619.34 --> 3623.68] And I want to have a team probably of anywhere between 10 to 15 people. +[3623.68 --> 3630.48] I want us to have a lot more high quality and fun content, like the dusting out your PC video. +[3630.88 --> 3635.24] Tech quickie, fast as possible, I think is a fantastic format for us in the future. +[3635.62 --> 3638.96] I want to have more hosts and more scripters. +[3639.10 --> 3641.26] I want to be able to pump out more content for you guys. +[3641.68 --> 3646.28] And ultimately, I need the community and our sponsors to keep supporting us to do that. +[3646.34 --> 3648.54] And that's the direction that I see for us. +[3648.64 --> 3650.44] Hopefully more Stormtrooper outfits as well. +[3650.72 --> 3651.04] Yeah. +[3651.88 --> 3653.42] Like all the Stormtrooper outfits. +[3653.68 --> 3659.44] Okay, so let's move on to our next discussion topic. +[3660.40 --> 3661.38] This has been a fun show. +[3661.46 --> 3663.36] I hope you guys are enjoying it as much as I am. +[3663.60 --> 3664.44] Is it fight time? +[3665.28 --> 3665.72] No. +[3665.92 --> 3668.10] No, I think we can all agree on this one. +[3668.10 --> 3676.28] Because calling something free when actually it's just free until we make you pay to unlock the rest of it. +[3677.00 --> 3682.34] Like, do you know how disappointed I was to find out that Angry Birds Star Wars lets you play through, like, +[3682.34 --> 3685.10] the first two campaigns and then locks, like, the third one? +[3686.00 --> 3687.00] I'm just like, what? +[3687.00 --> 3687.40] What? +[3687.96 --> 3690.24] Oh, like, I couldn't agree with this more. +[3691.42 --> 3692.36] This whole thing happening. +[3692.62 --> 3695.00] Like, calling a game free, because it's not... +[3696.08 --> 3697.64] Here, run through the whole thing. +[3697.78 --> 3698.62] Like, what's going on here? +[3698.62 --> 3707.80] So the idea is that in the EU they want to change it so that free-to-play games that have in-app purchases are not able to call themselves free-to-play games. +[3708.00 --> 3709.60] Because they're not actually free-to-play. +[3709.74 --> 3710.62] Because saying... +[3710.62 --> 3712.98] What is EA's new thing? +[3713.38 --> 3713.70] I don't... +[3713.70 --> 3714.54] Dungeon Keeper? +[3715.08 --> 3715.70] I don't remember. +[3715.78 --> 3716.08] Who cares? +[3716.20 --> 3722.50] Whatever it is, is not really free-to-play when a massive part of the game is buying things. +[3722.64 --> 3726.40] Because actually being able to effectively play the game, you have to buy a whole bunch of stuff. +[3726.56 --> 3729.80] Or else it'll take you way too long to play and makes it a completely unfeasible experience. +[3730.60 --> 3734.18] So, they want to take it out because of a multitude of different reasons. +[3734.42 --> 3735.78] One of them being children. +[3735.78 --> 3741.64] It's a really big problem and pops up in the news every once in a while when some kid spent two grand on a video game on his phone. +[3741.98 --> 3742.10] Yeah. +[3742.30 --> 3743.40] On his mom's credit card or whatever. +[3743.40 --> 3744.74] I need more attempts in Candy Crush. +[3745.18 --> 3745.58] Go! +[3746.04 --> 3746.24] Yeah. +[3746.36 --> 3747.18] I want to keep playing. +[3747.50 --> 3749.02] This button allows me to keep playing. +[3749.36 --> 3749.50] Yeah. +[3749.62 --> 3750.82] That's really not good. +[3752.36 --> 3755.92] And I've, for a long time, really hated the term free-to-play. +[3756.60 --> 3758.80] Because it rarely really applies properly. +[3758.90 --> 3761.66] There's a few games that do it in ways that I find completely acceptable. +[3761.66 --> 3765.62] Like League of Legends, I think does it in a fairly good way. +[3765.62 --> 3766.36] Team Fortress 2. +[3766.46 --> 3771.92] Team Fortress 2 does it in a really good, any Valve game does it in an amazing way that is free-to-play. +[3773.12 --> 3773.44] Ugh. +[3774.02 --> 3774.42] Ugh. +[3775.18 --> 3775.82] So, yeah. +[3775.92 --> 3777.18] I would really want this to happen. +[3777.58 --> 3782.60] So, I mean, basically, I don't think there's any firm plan in place as to how they can do this. +[3782.80 --> 3789.50] But the idea is that you can't use words like free if they're not actually free. +[3789.50 --> 3794.66] And the, sort of, the accusation is that this causes financial harm to consumers. +[3794.66 --> 3803.70] Now, I would make the argument that figuring out new ways to squeeze more money out of consumers is just an endless arms race. +[3803.82 --> 3806.12] And there will be something else in the future as well. +[3806.26 --> 3816.06] And I would also make the argument that most people who download an app for free, expecting it to be free, they have a choice. +[3816.06 --> 3822.76] If they discover that they don't like the free implementation, they have a choice whether they want to pay more or not. +[3822.90 --> 3829.80] Like, I don't feel, I don't feel deceived because, um, just trying to think of an app that I've actually bought. +[3829.80 --> 3832.24] But we are well-versed as well. +[3832.62 --> 3838.72] If someone who's not really into tech stuff picks up a phone and goes, oh, this is a free game, clicks on it, and then they just buy things everywhere. +[3839.62 --> 3840.48] I don't know. +[3840.64 --> 3842.56] I mean, I guess it depends on the implementation. +[3842.82 --> 3844.64] Like, I don't like the way Candy Crush does it. +[3844.72 --> 3844.90] Yeah. +[3845.00 --> 3847.02] Where it's like, pay for more attempts. +[3847.46 --> 3850.52] Whereas the way that Reaper did it, actually, have you played Reaper? +[3850.66 --> 3850.74] No. +[3850.82 --> 3851.80] Oh, it's actually pretty good. +[3852.12 --> 3853.40] You've got to play with a controller, though. +[3853.40 --> 3856.76] The Android games that I play, to be honest, are all Humble Bundle Android games. +[3856.88 --> 3856.96] Right. +[3857.00 --> 3858.08] I have, like, 50. +[3858.40 --> 3860.00] Because I've just bought every Humble Bundle Android game. +[3860.00 --> 3861.60] So Reaper, I felt pretty good about. +[3861.70 --> 3862.96] They let me play it for a little while. +[3863.04 --> 3864.50] They let me get a good, it was a demo. +[3865.06 --> 3865.38] Okay. +[3865.58 --> 3866.46] Oh, I like demos. +[3866.46 --> 3867.42] And I unlocked it. +[3867.62 --> 3870.60] Because demos make a ton of sense, and they're called demos. +[3870.78 --> 3871.66] They're not called free of the games. +[3871.68 --> 3871.84] Right. +[3872.02 --> 3876.34] But the demo app is not differentiated from the full app. +[3876.40 --> 3878.04] You unlock it with an in-app purchase. +[3878.20 --> 3878.66] I'm like, okay. +[3879.60 --> 3881.68] But, like, I don't feel bad about that. +[3881.94 --> 3882.76] I don't feel deceived. +[3882.94 --> 3883.58] So, I don't know. +[3883.64 --> 3884.16] There's that. +[3884.82 --> 3891.08] Although, one thing that I really feel very strongly is a great idea is they want developers +[3891.08 --> 3896.68] to completely cut out any direct calls for purchasing in any title that is designed to appeal to +[3896.68 --> 3897.00] children. +[3897.30 --> 3897.46] Yes. +[3897.46 --> 3902.36] Because children don't know better, and it's mommy and daddy's credit card that is going +[3902.36 --> 3902.84] to suffer. +[3903.22 --> 3908.34] Just like the guy that leaked the M8 probably doesn't realize the ramifications, might possibly +[3908.34 --> 3911.64] know it's not the right thing, but doesn't realize how bad it could possibly be. +[3911.64 --> 3916.78] Yeah, it's like when your parents tell you not to do something, like, I don't know, pour +[3916.78 --> 3920.40] out the mustard bottle onto the floor of the kitchen or whatever. +[3920.80 --> 3925.26] You're like, you know, mommy and daddy said no, but I really want to. +[3926.60 --> 3929.96] So, you do it, because kids don't think that far ahead. +[3930.14 --> 3930.34] Yeah. +[3930.88 --> 3934.98] All right, speaking of thinking far ahead, holy freaking crap. +[3934.98 --> 3943.68] This, my friends, is one of the most forward-looking gaming concepts that, you know what, we're not +[3943.68 --> 3946.60] really going to watch the video, because quite frankly, their Kickstarter video ain't that +[3946.60 --> 3946.88] great. +[3947.28 --> 3950.44] But these guys, there, that's basically the point. +[3951.16 --> 3959.36] Skirmose, open source laser tag, only begins to describe the potential of this idea. +[3959.46 --> 3960.60] I posted it on Facebook. +[3960.60 --> 3966.64] I'm not backing the campaign, even though I love the concept, and the hardware actually +[3966.64 --> 3969.58] looks like it's in a state where it's pretty usable. +[3970.40 --> 3974.02] I'm not backing the campaign, because I don't think these guys are realistic. +[3974.52 --> 3979.04] I don't think they understand how little money $60,000 is. +[3979.20 --> 3979.42] Yeah. +[3979.72 --> 3985.46] For me, running a business with now five employees, Employee Search 2014 is sort of over. +[3986.62 --> 3986.98] Sort of. +[3986.98 --> 3995.98] For me, running a business with five employees, I will burn through $60,000 like that amazingly +[3995.98 --> 3996.46] quickly. +[3996.58 --> 4001.92] Whether it's gear or payroll, or now we have employee benefits, like all these kinds of +[4001.92 --> 4006.36] things cost so much money, and they just haven't given any thought to it. +[4006.50 --> 4012.56] At the bottom, where they say the risks or whatever, their risks are they know that they +[4012.56 --> 4015.10] don't know anything about mass production of something. +[4015.98 --> 4017.16] And they're students. +[4017.16 --> 4018.94] They're probably really smart guys. +[4018.94 --> 4027.60] But it is a completely different world to use an Arduino, strap it to a gun, put like +[4027.60 --> 4034.16] a, you know, an infrared emitter on it, and some sensors, and is in a completely different +[4034.16 --> 4038.22] world to mass produce it, and develop relations with a factory and quality control. +[4038.22 --> 4040.68] And like, what happens when you start getting RMAs and blah blah blah blah blah. +[4040.68 --> 4042.02] So I'm not backing this. +[4042.28 --> 4047.96] But, what I really hope happens is these guys get acquired, and a company that actually knows +[4047.96 --> 4048.60] what they're doing. +[4048.70 --> 4049.84] Someone like Mattel. +[4050.18 --> 4050.52] Yeah. +[4050.98 --> 4052.56] Is like, yeah, we're going to build this. +[4052.84 --> 4058.26] Because for a hundred and whatever dollars, they are saying they will get you $115. +[4058.26 --> 4064.18] They are getting you a solution that should be better than laser tag, better than airsoft, +[4064.26 --> 4066.34] and in my mind, ugh. +[4066.78 --> 4068.10] Okay, probably not better than paintball. +[4068.28 --> 4068.38] No. +[4068.38 --> 4069.46] But better than the other two. +[4069.62 --> 4070.62] Here, do you want to... +[4070.62 --> 4071.74] You haven't talked much today. +[4071.88 --> 4073.88] Better than paintball in the way that it's... +[4073.88 --> 4076.96] You're not going to get covered in crap because of the paint. +[4077.02 --> 4079.18] But that's what is so great about paintball. +[4079.32 --> 4079.68] I know. +[4079.86 --> 4080.54] The rush. +[4080.54 --> 4081.88] It's easier to... +[4081.88 --> 4082.34] The pain. +[4083.12 --> 4083.68] No, I know. +[4083.78 --> 4086.32] But you could grab one of these in your house. +[4086.50 --> 4087.08] Oh, wait. +[4087.08 --> 4088.88] Run to your neighbor's house and be like, let's play now. +[4089.34 --> 4092.24] Force feedback suits could turn this... +[4092.24 --> 4096.88] Because to me, the thrill of paintball is the fact that it hurts to get hit. +[4097.20 --> 4097.42] Yeah. +[4097.62 --> 4099.12] That it sucks to get hit. +[4099.18 --> 4099.36] Yeah. +[4099.66 --> 4101.32] That's what makes people... +[4101.32 --> 4103.54] That's one of the reasons why I don't wear tons of extra padding. +[4103.68 --> 4105.18] That's why laser tag is dumb. +[4105.54 --> 4108.44] And like, I like laser tag, but it's dumb because you just run around. +[4108.54 --> 4109.52] Hee, hee, hee, hee, I got hit. +[4109.60 --> 4110.36] Hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee. +[4110.38 --> 4111.36] Okay, 15 second cooldown. +[4112.48 --> 4114.08] Hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee, hee. +[4114.08 --> 4116.48] So there's no risk. +[4116.48 --> 4119.00] Whereas this has so much potential. +[4119.10 --> 4119.58] Okay, sorry, sorry. +[4119.66 --> 4120.16] Tell them what it is. +[4120.24 --> 4120.72] Tell them what it is. +[4120.76 --> 4124.94] Okay, so as he already described, it's a gun with an Arduino controller connected to it +[4124.94 --> 4125.84] with an LCD panel. +[4126.02 --> 4127.38] There's a bunch of different things that you can... +[4127.38 --> 4129.32] You can custom program scenarios, essentially. +[4129.46 --> 4130.78] So you can have King of the Hill. +[4130.92 --> 4131.90] You can have Capture the Flag. +[4131.98 --> 4134.84] You can have all this kind of stuff because it's a custom programmable thing. +[4135.14 --> 4136.82] It's going to get real awkward, I'm assuming. +[4136.82 --> 4141.94] And things that are cool is you can have stuff like killstreaks built in. +[4142.04 --> 4145.98] So if you get three kills, if your gun registers that you just got three kills, it could say +[4145.98 --> 4148.04] go into stealth mode by turning off the LEDs. +[4148.22 --> 4152.30] If you guys saw on the picture that he had on his screen, the guns are lit up. +[4152.86 --> 4155.74] If you got a killstreak that put you into stealth mode or whatever, turning off your LEDs +[4155.74 --> 4157.02] could actually help a lot. +[4157.52 --> 4161.78] Or doing something else, like one of the stretch goals, I believe, is having the ability to +[4161.78 --> 4163.90] have an airstrike, essentially. +[4164.46 --> 4164.62] Yeah. +[4164.70 --> 4165.06] There you go. +[4165.14 --> 4168.76] So I see all these LEDs in the back and along kind of the rifling of the barrel, but that +[4168.76 --> 4169.28] could... +[4169.28 --> 4172.04] They could expand this and stuff like that, but all the LEDs could turn off. +[4172.14 --> 4174.06] So you could load like game maps in. +[4174.28 --> 4174.44] Yeah. +[4174.48 --> 4178.26] And it could like wipe out any enemy units in a given area. +[4178.34 --> 4180.14] In a quadrant or however it works. +[4180.22 --> 4180.54] Whatever. +[4181.92 --> 4183.66] Which is just so cool. +[4183.66 --> 4187.26] And then because it's an Arduino controller, you can add on so much stuff. +[4188.12 --> 4191.08] So you could have it where like maybe the headquarters for one of the buildings +[4191.08 --> 4193.92] is done through NFC tags that are in the gun. +[4194.32 --> 4197.96] So everyone that's on a certain color team can just like tap the butt of their gun on +[4197.96 --> 4199.02] the door and then they can get in. +[4199.42 --> 4199.62] Yeah. +[4199.74 --> 4201.02] Like different stuff like that. +[4201.16 --> 4204.58] It's really cool because it's an open system so you can do whatever you want to it. +[4205.46 --> 4208.74] I mean, for me, it's not necessarily about this. +[4208.80 --> 4209.64] I mean, this is cool. +[4209.84 --> 4211.36] I mean, they've got the gun as the sensor. +[4211.36 --> 4214.34] So you fire at other people's guns in order to register a hit. +[4214.78 --> 4220.12] They've got a display built onto it so you can use that for an ammo readout or any other +[4220.12 --> 4221.14] pertinent information. +[4222.28 --> 4223.42] All kinds of cool stuff. +[4223.52 --> 4228.68] But really, the excitement to me is augmented reality gaming with something like this. +[4229.34 --> 4232.68] And something you brought up, sorry, with the force feedback suit. +[4232.98 --> 4235.90] Oh, I'm okay with you interrupting me to tell me about the greatness of things that +[4235.90 --> 4236.44] I said before. +[4236.52 --> 4237.32] I'm adding to it. +[4237.32 --> 4242.30] But there's the force feedback suit, which is awesome because it adds the idea of paintball +[4242.30 --> 4247.28] where you don't want to just jump around hilariously because you don't care if you die because it +[4247.28 --> 4247.70] might hurt. +[4247.78 --> 4250.34] But you could also actually probably integrate that with a gun. +[4250.44 --> 4250.64] Okay. +[4250.72 --> 4251.28] So tell me this. +[4251.36 --> 4252.92] If you shoot the force feedback suit, it could count as a death. +[4252.92 --> 4263.64] If Oculus costs $300 and this gun costs $100 and your next phone upgrade includes, bloody +[4263.64 --> 4264.62] hell, what's it called again? +[4265.22 --> 4266.68] Project Tango. +[4266.80 --> 4267.08] Tango. +[4267.24 --> 4268.42] Includes Project Tango. +[4268.66 --> 4270.28] So you could literally map out areas. +[4270.30 --> 4272.68] You can have it on your face and you can have it actively map things. +[4272.78 --> 4273.00] Yes. +[4273.50 --> 4273.80] Okay. +[4273.80 --> 4277.28] So you've got Project Tango, your force feedback suit. +[4277.48 --> 4283.86] Let's say something that has vibration motors or something in it and you wear it all over +[4283.86 --> 4284.18] your body. +[4284.24 --> 4285.42] Let's say that costs a few hundred bucks. +[4285.48 --> 4287.12] So we've spent $700 now. +[4287.72 --> 4289.36] Plus, what else do we need? +[4289.92 --> 4291.54] It has to have sensors for the light gun. +[4292.16 --> 4293.22] You've got your display. +[4293.86 --> 4294.88] You've got your gun. +[4295.12 --> 4297.20] Some sort of battery and compute pack. +[4297.26 --> 4297.42] Yeah. +[4297.50 --> 4298.22] So some kind of compute. +[4298.34 --> 4300.34] Let's say the whole thing costs $1,000. +[4300.96 --> 4303.08] How quickly do you drop your money on that? +[4303.80 --> 4307.08] I couldn't right now, but I would immediately start saving. +[4307.70 --> 4308.38] Yeah, me too. +[4308.64 --> 4310.26] Like, there's immediately. +[4310.46 --> 4313.18] I mean, the gameplay of this. +[4313.58 --> 4317.22] So you go around with your phone and you map a building, right? +[4317.36 --> 4321.14] And you could map most of it and then if you start going out of the confines of the area, +[4321.24 --> 4324.04] if you had your phone on you somehow, it could just start mapping. +[4324.68 --> 4324.82] Yes. +[4324.82 --> 4326.06] Obviously it wouldn't be as high quality. +[4326.38 --> 4329.98] Or it could tell you, or it could pop up like a grave thing on your screen. +[4330.34 --> 4330.70] Warning. +[4330.70 --> 4333.42] Warning, enter exiting the combat zone or whatever, right? +[4333.42 --> 4334.52] You die in five seconds. +[4334.54 --> 4337.08] You die in five seconds and then go back to the combat zone. +[4337.18 --> 4338.92] The whole suit starts going crazy. +[4339.16 --> 4339.46] Right? +[4340.82 --> 4346.10] Or like you could, I mean, you could create like, like, like, like obstacles or something. +[4346.20 --> 4351.28] Like you could have it, um, you could, I don't even, I don't even know. +[4351.28 --> 4354.30] Like the kinds of, oh, so you'll see. +[4354.50 --> 4357.00] So anyway, you go around, like, let's say basic example. +[4357.50 --> 4362.54] Everyone who's playing, so you get like 40 dudes together or whatever, or, or ladies, whatever, +[4362.84 --> 4367.98] um, goes and walks around like a forested area or something with their phones, like mapping it out. +[4367.98 --> 4368.38] Okay. +[4368.98 --> 4375.30] Then everyone loads the map wirelessly onto their, onto their controllers, onto their guns. +[4375.30 --> 4382.96] And, and then that feeds a display into your Oculus that then builds an augmented reality version with the camera on the front. +[4382.96 --> 4394.00] It can augment the camera on the front with like, uh, with like checkpoints with like, um, you know, health bars with like heads up display crap and menus and stuff like that. +[4394.06 --> 4395.10] Use your gun to navigate it. +[4395.12 --> 4396.84] And everyone like runs around in the forest. +[4397.30 --> 4399.26] Obviously latencies will have to be much better. +[4399.36 --> 4401.16] And the technology is going to have to continue to improve. +[4401.16 --> 4405.84] But holy crap, what an amazing gaming experience. +[4406.42 --> 4415.22] I mean, my son, by the time he's like a teenager and is into gaming, is going to think the concept of sitting with a keyboard and mouse is ridiculous. +[4415.44 --> 4425.50] Well, there's, there was a big talk recently, um, on VR and on Oculus and stuff where hardcore gamers right now are potentially going to suck compared to casuals really soon. +[4425.86 --> 4426.32] Interesting. +[4426.32 --> 4436.06] Because if you fully integrate everything so that it no longer feels like you're using traditional computer interfaces, like a keyboard and mouse to play a game and you're playing with your body. +[4437.20 --> 4441.08] A pro soccer player will all of a sudden be a much better gamer. +[4441.08 --> 4443.92] Be way better at soccer than that dude that's awesome at FIFA. +[4444.38 --> 4444.48] Yeah. +[4444.60 --> 4445.00] Right. +[4445.22 --> 4447.52] Just really, really interesting idea. +[4447.84 --> 4455.80] And then when the game developer money goes towards these, uh, these, well, I don't know, casual, but not casual. +[4455.80 --> 4465.64] When all the game developer goes there and those become AAA, all of a sudden it's going to become more niche to be a traditional gamer and you're going to be the casual. +[4466.68 --> 4470.98] Well, then there will also be things like, like imagine playing Ender's game as Ender. +[4471.74 --> 4472.04] Wow. +[4472.12 --> 4476.44] You're not necessarily using your physical ability, but it'll feel much more like you're actually in this situation. +[4476.44 --> 4479.82] I'm still making my son play Mario as his first game though. +[4479.98 --> 4480.72] Super Mario World. +[4481.42 --> 4482.36] I'm like, you know what? +[4482.74 --> 4485.94] You are going to be okay at 2D platformers. +[4486.50 --> 4488.62] Or you are not moving on to bigger and better things. +[4489.32 --> 4492.28] Oh my goodness. +[4492.28 --> 4492.78] All right. +[4492.86 --> 4495.12] So here's the stupidest thing I've seen in a while. +[4496.80 --> 4497.24] Uh. +[4497.70 --> 4501.12] I had, I had multiple requests to put this in here. +[4501.20 --> 4502.86] This happens every once in a while. +[4503.20 --> 4503.48] Yeah. +[4503.48 --> 4504.40] So I love this. +[4504.52 --> 4507.88] 5,000 views, 657 dislikes, 50 likes. +[4508.28 --> 4509.80] This was on the Gadget Show. +[4510.02 --> 4511.50] And basically, you know what? +[4511.82 --> 4514.68] Are you guys getting, are you guys getting audio from this? +[4514.98 --> 4517.52] Because for some reason, oh, there we go. +[4518.30 --> 4518.58] Nope. +[4518.58 --> 4521.98] Oh, oh, I hope that's not, nope. +[4522.52 --> 4524.54] I'm not sure they really want to hear it anyways. +[4525.06 --> 4525.44] No, no, no. +[4525.52 --> 4529.54] It's, it's, it's, oh, no sound, no sound, audio, something. +[4530.50 --> 4531.38] I don't get it. +[4531.46 --> 4534.32] I don't know why they're not getting audio from this, but it's kind of important. +[4534.66 --> 4537.30] Basically, oh yeah, it seems to be working. +[4538.42 --> 4539.12] Nope, no. +[4539.20 --> 4539.42] Okay. +[4539.90 --> 4540.58] Well, they're not. +[4540.96 --> 4541.24] Okay. +[4541.28 --> 4541.84] Well, whatever. +[4542.18 --> 4542.44] Okay. +[4542.52 --> 4546.02] So the point is, uh, it's stupid. +[4546.02 --> 4552.42] So they say the death of the desktop PC is, is already here because of a couple of things. +[4552.42 --> 4556.58] And like some of the, oh man, you guys should just watch the video just to be, to be entertained. +[4556.88 --> 4558.42] Uh, so the stats they bring up are this. +[4558.46 --> 4562.88] So by 1986, laptops only represented 2% of the commuting, computing market. +[4563.14 --> 4565.10] Whereas now they're everywhere. +[4565.34 --> 4572.28] In 2004, we got good wireless connectivity with wifi and 3G, meaning you didn't have to be plugged into a wall to get online. +[4572.58 --> 4574.18] Proper mobile computing was born. +[4574.18 --> 4578.76] And in 2010, tablets came that drove desktop sales down even more. +[4579.20 --> 4591.86] Now, this is where within their own stupid video, 3 minutes and 59 seconds in, they give an example of why the desktop no longer matters. +[4591.86 --> 4594.96] So he's holding this tablet and he's like, this is a professional photographer. +[4595.28 --> 4600.98] And this is the tablet that he uses instead of a desktop to preview the, oh shoot, I'm not screen sharing right now. +[4601.04 --> 4604.66] To preview the photos that he's taking, uh, while on a shoot. +[4604.88 --> 4606.48] So here's the, here's the photographer. +[4606.96 --> 4607.56] Yeah, there you go. +[4607.82 --> 4608.28] Blah, blah, blah. +[4608.28 --> 4609.82] Ah, so this replaced his desktop. +[4610.56 --> 4611.40] No, it didn't. +[4613.74 --> 4618.44] What that replaced is the tiny screen on the back of the camera. +[4619.22 --> 4619.84] You idiot. +[4620.96 --> 4622.72] And I don't often call someone an idiot. +[4623.22 --> 4624.74] But it didn't replace his desktop. +[4624.74 --> 4630.86] Yeah, yeah, okay. I'm gonna run my Photoshop on this tablet because that's perfect. No, it isn't. +[4631.28 --> 4635.88] He's saying that he could have potentially dragged a computer there to show the photos. +[4636.56 --> 4637.38] Who would do that? +[4637.48 --> 4643.50] I don't know. Because I know a photographer from the UK, a good friend of mine, known him for a really long time, that does the tablet thing. +[4643.50 --> 4643.74] Okay. +[4643.92 --> 4646.02] Also a crazy PC freak has tons of them at home. +[4646.06 --> 4648.60] And you could do it with a laptop, sure. And that's practical. +[4648.60 --> 4661.34] And a tablet maybe replaced a laptop in this situation, but it sure did not replace a proper computer that you're gonna sit down at and get real work done at. +[4661.46 --> 4669.74] When I've gone to wedding shoots before tablets became a really big thing, it was like, yeah, I got a bunch of really good photos. I'll send them to you later. +[4670.98 --> 4676.94] The tablet has not replaced the desktop in any way, and it's absurd to think that it has. +[4676.94 --> 4683.42] I mean, think about the way people use tablets. I could be using a tablet for this right now, and I actually could. That would be just fine. +[4684.00 --> 4688.98] It didn't replace my desktop. I wasn't gonna have a desktop here. Oh, okay, I have a desktop here. +[4689.04 --> 4691.62] But I wasn't gonna have a desktop in my lap and be referring to things. +[4691.62 --> 4693.50] And we're not about to replace that with a tablet. +[4693.74 --> 4693.96] No. +[4694.02 --> 4695.06] That's not gonna happen. +[4695.18 --> 4696.08] Not going to happen. +[4696.08 --> 4705.08] The way that I'll sit on my couch and browse my tablet or watch a movie on the tablet while my wife watches something that entertains her on the TV... +[4705.08 --> 4707.08] That didn't replace a desktop! +[4707.08 --> 4708.08] Desktop?! +[4708.08 --> 4718.08] The fact that desktop sales are going down is a reflection of the decrease in improving power of desktops. +[4718.08 --> 4723.08] It's not a mark of desktops not being necessary anymore. +[4723.08 --> 4728.08] So, basically, Gadget Show? If you guys are watching, just don't. +[4728.08 --> 4734.08] That's all I have to say. Oh, yeah, they had some other stupid thing to say. +[4734.08 --> 4739.08] Everything that they said in that video has been refuted ten billion times. It's not even that important. +[4739.08 --> 4741.08] It's fun to throw them under the bus. +[4741.08 --> 4742.08] Yeah, it is. +[4742.08 --> 4743.08] But it's just like, who cares? +[4743.08 --> 4744.08] Like, who cares? +[4744.08 --> 4748.08] They're like, desktops no longer have more storage due to one terabyte USB drives. +[4748.08 --> 4749.08] Oh. +[4749.08 --> 4750.08] And I mean, you know what? +[4750.08 --> 4751.08] Oh. +[4751.08 --> 4752.08] Wait. +[4752.08 --> 4758.08] I'm gonna leave the fact that the one terabyte USB drive from Kingston costs $1,000, I'm gonna leave that out. +[4758.08 --> 4761.08] It almost doesn't even matter, despite that being insane. +[4761.08 --> 4765.08] Because flash storage will continue to become more and more economical. +[4765.08 --> 4766.08] Yeah. +[4766.08 --> 4775.08] And I'm gonna leave out their argument that 4G connectivity is faster than your landline internet connection. +[4775.08 --> 4778.08] I'm gonna leave out that argument as being stupid. +[4778.08 --> 4782.08] Because I think that both of those things are the future. +[4782.08 --> 4787.08] Much, much larger storage being possible with flash. +[4787.08 --> 4794.08] And the fact that you're gonna have a super fast, super cheap connection via 4G or 5G or 6G or whatever. +[4794.08 --> 4796.08] That is the future. +[4796.08 --> 4798.08] But that doesn't mean we don't need a desktop still. +[4798.08 --> 4799.08] Yep. +[4799.08 --> 4800.08] Until those connections... +[4800.08 --> 4802.08] Sorry, my nose is itchy. +[4802.08 --> 4804.08] Gotta, you know... +[4804.08 --> 4805.08] That's awkward. +[4805.08 --> 4809.08] Anyway, that doesn't mean that we're not gonna need those. +[4809.08 --> 4817.08] Because until the latencies are so much lower for these connections, such that my desktop, which I'm still gonna need, can utilize them... +[4817.08 --> 4820.08] And like, do you really trust your flash drive storage? +[4820.08 --> 4822.08] No, of course not. +[4822.08 --> 4829.08] They use much, much lower grade chips that are much, much more prone to failure than something like an SSD or a hard drive. +[4829.08 --> 4832.08] Like, put an SSD in your laptop. +[4832.08 --> 4836.08] Just don't buy a terabyte flash drive to replace that. +[4836.08 --> 4839.08] Like, maybe you buy a terabyte flash drive for something. +[4839.08 --> 4843.08] But don't do it as like, storage replacement entirely permanently to your laptop. +[4843.08 --> 4844.08] Because that's nuts. +[4844.08 --> 4847.08] Speaking of cloud storage, and... +[4847.08 --> 4848.08] Hmm. +[4848.08 --> 4853.08] Jay's Two Cents and Barnacle's are like, hey, I heard you mentioned us on the show. +[4853.08 --> 4854.08] Thanks, buddy. +[4854.08 --> 4855.08] We love LMG. +[4855.08 --> 4859.08] It's like, yeah, but what they didn't realize is that I was, you know, mentioning how much I hate them. +[4859.08 --> 4864.08] And I think that they should join Dollar Shave Club because their facial hair is ugly. +[4864.08 --> 4865.08] They... +[4865.08 --> 4866.08] No. +[4866.08 --> 4870.08] And they need One Wipe Charlie's so they can clean their butts better. +[4870.08 --> 4872.08] Them sponsor integrations, yo. +[4873.08 --> 4874.08] Wow. +[4874.08 --> 4875.08] All right, anyway. +[4875.08 --> 4880.08] Samsung promises, and really like, this was posted by misanthrope on the forum. +[4880.08 --> 4887.08] Samsung promises, and I really, like promises, more like threatens, promises $500 worth of +[4887.08 --> 4893.08] various subscriptions on the upcoming Galaxy S5, rather. +[4893.08 --> 4897.08] Really, guys? +[4897.08 --> 4899.08] Original article here is from Techspot, and... +[4899.08 --> 4901.08] I'm so happy because I thought you cared. +[4901.08 --> 4902.08] You cared. +[4902.08 --> 4905.08] And I was like, oh, this is gonna suck. +[4905.08 --> 4908.08] I am, I am like, I... +[4908.08 --> 4917.08] That is basically like Firefox promising to give me $50 worth of like value add toolbars +[4917.08 --> 4919.08] at the top of my browser. +[4919.08 --> 4921.08] Like some of the stuff included. +[4921.08 --> 4923.08] Like what are they, what are they including? +[4923.08 --> 4926.08] Uh, one year subscription to Bloomberg Business Week. +[4926.08 --> 4927.08] Okay, that's okay. +[4927.08 --> 4928.08] For some people. +[4928.08 --> 4929.08] I'm okay with that. +[4929.08 --> 4931.08] A mass majority of people won't care. +[4931.08 --> 4932.08] One year sub to Lark. +[4932.08 --> 4934.08] What the hell is Lark? +[4934.08 --> 4936.08] I was just gonna say, I don't know what Lark is. +[4936.08 --> 4937.08] Maybe it's really cool. +[4937.08 --> 4939.08] Six month subscription to Wall Street Journal. +[4939.08 --> 4942.08] Again, like, Bloomsburg Business Week and Wall Street Journal, like, I'm getting my +[4942.08 --> 4944.08] news from elsewhere now, guys. +[4944.08 --> 4945.08] Sorry. +[4945.08 --> 4950.08] Um, three month premium LinkedIn account, which like, that's too short to really matter. +[4950.08 --> 4951.08] It's A, too short to matter. +[4951.08 --> 4953.08] It's A, too short to matter. +[4953.08 --> 4956.08] And B, completely irrelevant unless you're looking for a job. +[4956.08 --> 4958.08] I mean, I don't know anyone who actually like, hangs out on LinkedIn. +[4958.08 --> 4960.08] Like, I've got a LinkedIn account. +[4960.08 --> 4965.08] But like, that's for when this whole thing goes up in flames and I need to look for a real job. +[4965.08 --> 4971.08] Um, and like, three months of a subscription is basically like, that's- +[4971.08 --> 4972.08] It's a trial. +[4972.08 --> 4973.08] Yeah. +[4973.08 --> 4975.08] That's, that's, that's a, that's a free trial. +[4975.08 --> 4978.08] That's not a, like, we're giving you this as money. +[4978.08 --> 4990.08] That's, that's like me saying every t-shirt you buy in our merch store, every t-shirt you buy in our merch store comes with like, three months of, uh, of free, um, you know, Norton antivirus. +[4990.08 --> 4991.08] That's locking you in. +[4991.08 --> 4992.08] Yeah. +[4992.08 --> 4995.08] Or like, comes with- +[4995.08 --> 4997.08] Especially the one terabyte storage. +[4997.08 --> 4998.08] Okay, we haven't gotten to that yet. +[4998.08 --> 4999.08] Yeah. +[4999.08 --> 5007.08] Or that's like me saying that, uh, you know, it gets you two weeks of free Squarespace or, you know, Hotspot Shield or whatever. +[5007.08 --> 5008.08] Like all of our sponsors. +[5008.08 --> 5018.08] Like, that's the kind of thing that I gotta imagine LinkedIn is paying Samsung to include because they're just giving out free trials. +[5018.08 --> 5020.08] And like, that's not even the worst one. +[5020.08 --> 5024.08] The one that really makes me mad is the one terabyte of storage from Bitcase. +[5024.08 --> 5026.08] First of all, Bitcase, whatever. +[5026.08 --> 5033.08] Like, I'd rather have the two year 50 gig Dropbox that they used to do, even though it's much less storage. +[5033.08 --> 5036.08] I, relatively speaking, trust Dropbox. +[5036.08 --> 5038.08] It's already a part of my workflow. +[5038.08 --> 5040.08] Like, I've got it installed everywhere. +[5040.08 --> 5042.08] And three months of storage? +[5042.08 --> 5048.08] So what, I'm gonna put one terabyte of storage in there and then you're gonna wipe it after three months when I don't wanna pay you for it? +[5048.08 --> 5049.08] Ridiculous. +[5049.08 --> 5050.08] Not gonna happen. +[5050.08 --> 5052.08] Samsung, what are you doing? +[5052.08 --> 5055.08] It's just, it's adware or whatever you- +[5055.08 --> 5056.08] That's- +[5056.08 --> 5057.08] That's bloatware. +[5057.08 --> 5058.08] Bloatware. +[5058.08 --> 5059.08] Yeah. +[5059.08 --> 5066.08] And the funny thing about that is, okay, because Korea banned non-removable bloatware. +[5066.08 --> 5069.08] Is this, like, the new bloatware? +[5069.08 --> 5070.08] Maybe it's removable. +[5070.08 --> 5073.08] And maybe it's removable, but that doesn't make it not obnoxious. +[5073.08 --> 5074.08] No, exactly. +[5074.08 --> 5080.08] Alright, we are actually, like, we've already run overtime on the show here, so I think we're just gonna do a couple more things here. +[5080.08 --> 5083.08] Windows 9 is expected to push people off Windows XP. +[5083.08 --> 5088.08] Sources, rumored release dates indicate fall 2014 or spring 2015. +[5088.08 --> 5102.08] And it will apparently continue the trend that Microsoft has been moving towards with Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 8.1 revised, which is coming soon, of taking the modern UI and the classic desktop UI and making them work better together. +[5102.08 --> 5105.08] I'm hoping it just keeps the trend going. +[5105.08 --> 5106.08] Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock. +[5106.08 --> 5107.08] Yeah, tick-tock. +[5107.08 --> 5108.08] Hopefully Windows 9 is awesome. +[5108.08 --> 5110.08] Because, like, dude, Vista was terrible, Windows 7 was awesome. +[5110.08 --> 5111.08] XP was awesome. +[5111.08 --> 5112.08] Vista wasn't terrible. +[5112.08 --> 5113.08] I'm tired of having this conversation with you. +[5113.08 --> 5117.08] You're the only person that liked it on the entire planet. +[5117.08 --> 5119.08] Okay. +[5119.08 --> 5123.08] Vista loyalists represent, guys. +[5123.08 --> 5125.08] You're the only one. +[5125.08 --> 5126.08] Whatever. +[5126.08 --> 5129.08] OCC launches the new Z Drive. +[5129.08 --> 5132.08] This was posted on the forum by 4960X. +[5132.08 --> 5133.08] It's PCI Express. +[5133.08 --> 5135.08] It's available in capacities up to 3.2 terabytes. +[5135.08 --> 5139.08] But that'll cost you a cool $6,500. +[5139.08 --> 5141.08] And I actually want to hear from you guys. +[5141.08 --> 5142.08] We'll do one more. +[5142.08 --> 5144.08] Maybe we'll do one more Twitter blitz before the end of the show. +[5144.08 --> 5147.08] Would you buy an OCZ SSD? +[5147.08 --> 5149.08] Or, no, let's do a straw poll. +[5149.08 --> 5150.08] Straw poll. +[5150.08 --> 5151.08] Straw poll. +[5151.08 --> 5152.08] Create one. +[5152.08 --> 5158.08] So, the question will be, would you buy an OCZ SSD before the Toshiba acquisition? +[5158.08 --> 5162.08] And then, would you buy an OCZ SSD after the acquisition? +[5162.08 --> 5168.08] So, I think it's yes before, no before, yes after, no after. +[5168.08 --> 5173.08] And then, allow multiple choices so that they can vote for before and for after. +[5173.08 --> 5177.08] Because I want to see how perception has shifted now that they're going to be using Toshiba Nand, +[5177.08 --> 5180.08] which is, by all accounts, pretty darn good. +[5180.08 --> 5181.08] Okay. +[5181.08 --> 5184.08] Twitch TV now allows streaming from mobile platforms. +[5184.08 --> 5188.08] So, you can play mobile games, stream them on Twitch TV. +[5188.08 --> 5192.08] It's got support for your front camera, so people can see your mug playing your mobile games. +[5192.08 --> 5194.08] Although, I think there are going to be some challenges here. +[5194.08 --> 5197.08] Like, especially games where the controls are done like this. +[5197.08 --> 5200.08] That front camera is going to move around a fair bit. +[5200.08 --> 5201.08] Either way, I think it's cool. +[5201.08 --> 5206.08] I wouldn't mind seeing Justin TV or, you know, Twitch's parent. +[5206.08 --> 5210.08] Some other streaming surface integrate support for the rear camera. +[5210.08 --> 5214.08] Because that would be a really neat way to stream events or whatever else. +[5214.08 --> 5215.08] What's up? +[5215.08 --> 5217.08] Yeah, I don't know what to say about that. +[5217.08 --> 5218.08] Anyway. +[5218.08 --> 5221.08] I posted it and it just gets destroyed by worship the almighty Helix. +[5221.08 --> 5222.08] Anyway. +[5222.08 --> 5223.08] Um... +[5223.08 --> 5226.08] So, I think that's really cool. +[5226.08 --> 5227.08] That's all I really have to say about that. +[5227.08 --> 5232.08] Dell is charging 16 Great Britain pounds to install Firefox on PCs in the UK. +[5232.08 --> 5234.08] Mozilla's like, +[5234.08 --> 5238.08] Yo, that's against our terms of service. +[5238.08 --> 5239.08] Yeah. +[5239.08 --> 5243.08] For some open software it's okay because it's seen as like a servicing thing, but not for Firefox. +[5243.08 --> 5244.08] Now get this. +[5244.08 --> 5250.08] Dell is saying the charge is to cover the time and labor involved, but I know for a fact that Dell images their machines. +[5250.08 --> 5251.08] So... +[5251.08 --> 5256.08] Also, the cost that that labor would be is insane. +[5256.08 --> 5257.08] Yeah. +[5257.08 --> 5263.08] It's like it's a works out to like $100 an hour assuming that you were paying 10 bucks or assuming it takes 10 minutes to install Firefox, which it doesn't. +[5263.08 --> 5264.08] Which it doesn't. +[5264.08 --> 5267.08] Not to mention that installing anything where... +[5267.08 --> 5273.08] To install anything you are supposed to be the person to accept the end user license agreement, whether you read it or not. +[5273.08 --> 5279.08] For someone else to install something for you is technically not allowed in any situation. +[5279.08 --> 5280.08] That's interesting. +[5280.08 --> 5282.08] If it has an end user license agreement. +[5282.08 --> 5286.08] Because someone else agreed to it for you then shipped a computer to you that has it on it. +[5286.08 --> 5287.08] That's really interesting. +[5287.08 --> 5288.08] I never even thought about that. +[5288.08 --> 5290.08] Well, this is something that I used to deal with working at NCIX, right? +[5290.08 --> 5293.08] Like that's why we couldn't install really cool pre-install cool stuff for people. +[5293.08 --> 5295.08] I wonder how like the Geek Squad Services thing works. +[5295.08 --> 5302.08] Because we could put install shortcuts on the desktop and we could say, hey, here's some cool stuff you might like. +[5302.08 --> 5304.08] But we couldn't actually install it for people. +[5304.08 --> 5313.08] It's just interesting because of the Geek Squad Services, which is probably a much bigger thing than NCX, where they can install software for you and like whatever the heck you want. +[5313.08 --> 5315.08] But you probably have to sign a form. +[5315.08 --> 5316.08] It must be. +[5316.08 --> 5317.08] Yeah. +[5317.08 --> 5318.08] Yeah, you do. +[5318.08 --> 5319.08] Interesting. +[5319.08 --> 5320.08] So you guys didn't have a signed form I'm assuming. +[5320.08 --> 5329.08] So, Folding at Home, speaking of Folding at Home, shout out to Whaler because our Folding at Home team is awesome. +[5329.08 --> 5332.08] Number 49 in the world right now. +[5332.08 --> 5334.08] And when you consider that it just started like a year ago. +[5334.08 --> 5336.08] And some of these teams are really old. +[5336.08 --> 5338.08] Like that's beast mode. +[5338.08 --> 5341.08] Folding at Home has added a new way to fold. +[5341.08 --> 5348.08] All you have to do is navigate to the URL, which is, here we go, chrome. +[5348.08 --> 5353.08] Oh, folding.stanford.edu slash NACL. +[5353.08 --> 5354.08] Salt? +[5354.08 --> 5356.08] I wonder why they made it NACL. +[5356.08 --> 5358.08] Anyway, slash NACL. +[5358.08 --> 5361.08] And in Chrome, your computer will start folding. +[5361.08 --> 5363.08] It has multiple modes. +[5363.08 --> 5366.08] So you can use the light mode if you're on a laptop and you don't want it to overheat. +[5366.08 --> 5371.08] Or, you know, if you want your computer to stay 100% responsive. +[5371.08 --> 5373.08] It only supports CPU folding at this point. +[5373.08 --> 5376.08] You still need the full client for GPU folding. +[5376.08 --> 5378.08] But isn't that cool? +[5378.08 --> 5386.08] You can just leave a tab open in Chrome and you can support protein folding research and, yeah. +[5386.08 --> 5391.08] And like if you set it up so that that tab automatically opened when you opened up the browser, which is possible. +[5391.08 --> 5398.08] Then anytime your browser is open, you are supporting, you know, potentially cancer research or any number of other different important things. +[5398.08 --> 5402.08] Linus, the Linus team is 223518, by the way. +[5402.08 --> 5409.08] So you go through a quick configuration process that has you go ahead and select your team and, and you can contribute to that team. +[5409.08 --> 5415.08] But honestly, it's not about contributing to our team because it's just an e-peen measuring contest anyway. +[5415.08 --> 5416.08] Which we have a pretty big one. +[5416.08 --> 5418.08] We got a pretty big e-peen already. +[5418.08 --> 5419.08] We don't need more e-peen. +[5419.08 --> 5425.08] It is more about using extra computing cycles to do something really useful with them. +[5425.08 --> 5427.08] Do you want to go ahead and find a topic that you don't need a visual aid for? +[5427.08 --> 5428.08] Because my battery just died. +[5428.08 --> 5429.08] Yeah, I saw that. +[5429.08 --> 5436.08] Another thing that I do worry about is with this like computing kind of situation, we've seen stuff like this happen before. +[5436.08 --> 5441.08] Is if someone gets it rigged up so that a big site has you coin mining while you're on that website. +[5441.08 --> 5443.08] Oh, that's something I didn't even think of. +[5443.08 --> 5449.08] Yeah, because this type of application, it only uses your CPU, not your GPU, for the folding thing. +[5449.08 --> 5451.08] But like, any amount. +[5451.08 --> 5453.08] Hijacking people's computers is bad in general. +[5453.08 --> 5458.08] Yeah, so hopefully this type of thing doesn't get used more maliciously. +[5458.08 --> 5460.08] I've seen this type of stuff before. +[5460.08 --> 5462.08] Usually it gets shut down really quickly though. +[5462.08 --> 5464.08] Moving on. +[5464.08 --> 5470.08] Reddit is now donating 10% of their ad revenue, which is not huge as far as I know. +[5470.08 --> 5474.08] Like, in terms of supporting Reddit as a whole. +[5474.08 --> 5479.08] So they're actually taking a lot of the money that is keeping them alive away. +[5479.08 --> 5484.08] Which is interesting because as far as I've seen in the past, they're like not profiting. +[5484.08 --> 5486.08] Yeah, and that's 10% of revenue, not profit. +[5486.08 --> 5487.08] Yeah, so. +[5487.08 --> 5488.08] That's cool. +[5488.08 --> 5490.08] Pretty crazy that they're doing that. +[5490.08 --> 5492.08] Apparently they're going to have an election. +[5492.08 --> 5496.08] Although Reddit is reserving the right to take the power away from the users if things get out of hand. +[5496.08 --> 5497.08] Because it's the internet. +[5497.08 --> 5498.08] Because they're Redditors. +[5498.08 --> 5499.08] And they're Redditors. +[5499.08 --> 5502.08] So that's probably really smart that they did that. +[5502.08 --> 5508.08] Funds will be awarded to the top 10 of elected nonprofits, which is really interesting. +[5508.08 --> 5510.08] And that's just, that's really cool. +[5510.08 --> 5514.08] But I do kind of worry because Reddit's already bleeding money as far as I know. +[5514.08 --> 5517.08] But hey, if they're surviving, that's cool. +[5517.08 --> 5525.08] Keurig, a coffee company, props to the OP Tyler Matthew on Linus Tech Tips Forum, +[5525.08 --> 5530.08] will use DRM in their new coffee maker to lock out the refill market. +[5530.08 --> 5535.08] I think that's pretty self-explanatory, but really? +[5535.08 --> 5538.08] I mean, we've seen this in printers. +[5538.08 --> 5539.08] You see this in everything. +[5539.08 --> 5540.08] That's why I'm not that surprised. +[5540.08 --> 5546.08] Yeah, we've seen this in, I mean, in the pro photography and pro videography and cinematography markets. +[5546.08 --> 5547.08] We see this all the time. +[5547.08 --> 5548.08] 3D printers. +[5548.08 --> 5564.08] Canon, with their XA10 upgrade camera, the XA20, actually not only forces you to use Canon batteries, but even though the slot is the same and the power output is the same, they force you to use specifically XA20 batteries and not XA10 batteries. +[5564.08 --> 5567.08] Like just ridiculous stuff like that. +[5567.08 --> 5568.08] Yeah. +[5568.08 --> 5573.08] And like, like I said, 3D printers, normal printers, that Canon thing that you just talked about, like this happens so much. +[5573.08 --> 5574.08] I'm not happy about it, but. +[5574.08 --> 5583.08] So with unlicensed pods, the Keurig CEO confirms that the new coffee maker won't work unless you put their. +[5583.08 --> 5585.08] Licensed pod in. +[5585.08 --> 5587.08] This is really cool. +[5587.08 --> 5590.08] This is from, this is from Yale.edu. +[5590.08 --> 5592.08] Rewritable paper and ink. +[5592.08 --> 5593.08] Okay. +[5593.08 --> 5596.08] We're still a long way away from this mattering to someone like me. +[5596.08 --> 5597.08] Yeah. +[5597.08 --> 5600.08] Where I write things on paper so that I can like, dig them up later. +[5600.08 --> 5602.08] But this is really cool. +[5602.08 --> 5606.08] So this new rewritable paper can be reused dozens of times. +[5606.08 --> 5609.08] So you can actually see the, the document there. +[5609.08 --> 5610.08] So that's, there you go. +[5610.08 --> 5611.08] There you go. +[5611.08 --> 5616.08] Um, so it can be reused dozens of times and simply works with water. +[5616.08 --> 5619.08] So you'd have a water pen, you write it down. +[5619.08 --> 5629.08] And then in the time that it takes the water to dry, typically around 22 hours, obviously less in hot environments, it'll be visible and you can read stuff on it. +[5629.08 --> 5637.08] And so the justification for this is that, um, they figure 90% of business information is, uh, oh, okay. +[5637.08 --> 5646.08] The scientists note that while 90% of business information is retained on paper, most printed documents are read only once before being discarded. +[5646.08 --> 5656.08] So if the idea was to print out notes for a presentation in a meeting and hand a copy to everyone, a reusable paper system like this could be invaluable. +[5656.08 --> 5662.08] Uh, one really cool thing that even just myself I could use it for is whenever we go to a show, I like taking show notes. +[5662.08 --> 5663.08] Yeah. +[5663.08 --> 5664.08] I, I always take show notes. +[5664.08 --> 5667.08] The second I show up to a booth, I start taking notes in a little thing. +[5667.08 --> 5670.08] I don't really need those notes immediately afterwards. +[5670.08 --> 5675.08] Speaking of another thing that tablets don't replace computers for, keyboards. +[5675.08 --> 5676.08] Yeah. +[5676.08 --> 5681.08] Like I can't, I can't sit there on a tablet and be like, uh, uh, yeah, I'm keeping up with what you're saying. +[5681.08 --> 5683.08] Uh, like this is not gonna work. +[5683.08 --> 5685.08] And then people have said like, yeah, use the pen thing. +[5685.08 --> 5687.08] I hate writing on screens. +[5687.08 --> 5688.08] It's terrible. +[5688.08 --> 5690.08] My handwriting's bad enough already. +[5690.08 --> 5691.08] Don't make me write on a screen. +[5691.08 --> 5700.08] Whenever I have to like sign someone's digital signature thing, I'm just like, yup, that doesn't look anything like my signature at all. +[5700.08 --> 5702.08] Especially cause they don't work right half the time. +[5702.08 --> 5703.08] Yeah. +[5703.08 --> 5705.08] And it's like, doesn't write in that one part or whatever. +[5705.08 --> 5707.08] It's like, if you ever have to verify this is me, you just failed. +[5707.08 --> 5711.08] Cause it doesn't look like my signature in the slightest, but whatever. +[5711.08 --> 5713.08] Um, I dunno. +[5713.08 --> 5716.08] So I, I think it's actually really cool and I could even use it. +[5716.08 --> 5719.08] So if it becomes very easy to acquire, like I see myself using this stuff. +[5719.08 --> 5723.08] Cause if you even had like a few pages, whatever, that's all you really need. +[5723.08 --> 5725.08] It's going to fade away and you can just use it again later anyways. +[5725.08 --> 5730.08] So if I had say like a moleskin notebook of this paper, that would be awesome. +[5730.08 --> 5731.08] That'd be great. +[5731.08 --> 5733.08] Uh, I was wrong. +[5733.08 --> 5735.08] Twitch plays Pokemon one. +[5735.08 --> 5736.08] So there you go. +[5736.08 --> 5737.08] Told you. +[5737.08 --> 5738.08] Yeah. +[5738.08 --> 5739.08] You were right. +[5739.08 --> 5740.08] They're starting a new one now. +[5740.08 --> 5742.08] Oh wait, did we talk about that last week? +[5742.08 --> 5743.08] I don't remember. +[5743.08 --> 5746.08] Oh, what else we got? +[5746.08 --> 5747.08] Gabe ends AMA. +[5747.08 --> 5748.08] You checked it out. +[5748.08 --> 5749.08] I actually didn't read it. +[5749.08 --> 5750.08] Yeah. +[5750.08 --> 5752.08] There wasn't a ton of like new information. +[5752.08 --> 5753.08] How unsurprising. +[5753.08 --> 5754.08] Yeah. +[5754.08 --> 5755.08] Yeah. +[5755.08 --> 5756.08] Yeah. +[5756.08 --> 5758.08] Someone tricked him into saying that Half-Life 3 was coming. +[5758.08 --> 5761.08] Um, they edited their post. +[5761.08 --> 5765.08] They, they, they like, they, they said, they asked a question and his answer was yes. +[5765.08 --> 5767.08] And they edited it to is Half-Life 3 coming. +[5767.08 --> 5771.08] Um, so that was kind of funny, but like he didn't really comment on it. +[5771.08 --> 5774.08] And then the comment just got deleted by I think one of the moderators anyways. +[5774.08 --> 5776.08] So it was just like, ah, whatever. +[5776.08 --> 5781.08] Um, someone asked him if on purpose he started it on the third day of the third month with +[5781.08 --> 5784.08] three hour, three and a half hours of notice. +[5784.08 --> 5787.08] Uh, and he answered Ed O period. +[5787.08 --> 5789.08] Which is hilarious. +[5789.08 --> 5791.08] Because three characters. +[5791.08 --> 5796.08] Um, that all the comments under it were like, he knows exactly what he's doing. +[5796.08 --> 5798.08] Um, that was awesome. +[5798.08 --> 5802.08] Um, he did comment on VR stuff. +[5802.08 --> 5805.08] Um, and I know that's all I really talk about these days. +[5805.08 --> 5806.08] But yeah. +[5806.08 --> 5808.08] And it was kind of interesting. +[5808.08 --> 5810.08] It's really long though. +[5810.08 --> 5812.08] So be sure to check it out. +[5812.08 --> 5815.08] You can find the VR thing more easily if you just go to the Oculus subreddit because it +[5815.08 --> 5817.08] is a linked post there. +[5817.08 --> 5820.08] I recommend you just do that because it'll be a lot easier to find is that AMA is actually +[5820.08 --> 5821.08] pretty long. +[5821.08 --> 5826.08] A lot of his answers and it was him and his team, uh, or a small team. +[5826.08 --> 5829.08] So a lot of his answers are like, yes, maybe no. +[5829.08 --> 5834.08] Like answering three questions that the person asked and then just moving on. +[5834.08 --> 5835.08] Right. +[5835.08 --> 5839.08] So it was, it was rapid fire, which was actually good in my opinion because you don't really +[5839.08 --> 5841.08] need him to elaborate on a lot of different things. +[5841.08 --> 5842.08] Yeah. +[5842.08 --> 5847.08] Uh, Verizon wants to charge gamers and streamers more for their internet service. +[5847.08 --> 5848.08] We're really running out of time. +[5848.08 --> 5851.08] So I don't think we're going to be able to talk about this nearly as much as I'd want +[5851.08 --> 5852.08] to, but don't worry guys. +[5852.08 --> 5857.08] You can always tune into the tech for the weekly hate on Verizon from Logan. +[5857.08 --> 5863.08] Um, so he covers it much better than I have the time or gumption to, to do. +[5863.08 --> 5868.08] But the point is that they've been quoted saying, okay, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[5868.08 --> 5872.08] When it comes to downloading games and streaming movies online, it's easy to surpass 15 gigs +[5872.08 --> 5873.08] worth of data in a day. +[5873.08 --> 5878.08] And according to Verizon's chief executive, people that use more bandwidth downloading games, +[5878.08 --> 5881.08] streaming movies, or playing online games should pay more to play. +[5881.08 --> 5886.08] It is only natural that the heavy users help contribute to the investment to keep the web +[5886.08 --> 5887.08] healthy. +[5887.08 --> 5890.08] Mick Adams said during a conference call discussing net neutrality. +[5890.08 --> 5893.08] That is the most important concept of net neutrality. +[5893.08 --> 5900.08] Maybe they should remember that they got that huge investment money to, you know, like improve +[5900.08 --> 5902.08] the internet a long time ago and then never did it. +[5902.08 --> 5903.08] Okay. +[5903.08 --> 5907.08] Now I'm going to do something here that you're probably not going to like. +[5907.08 --> 5908.08] I know. +[5908.08 --> 5912.08] And I'm going to say, that's why I asked before, like, is it time to fight? +[5912.08 --> 5915.08] I have no problem with pay per use. +[5915.08 --> 5919.08] I have no problem with services that cost more for heavier users. +[5919.08 --> 5920.08] Okay. +[5920.08 --> 5922.08] If I drive more, I buy more gas. +[5922.08 --> 5923.08] Yep. +[5923.08 --> 5924.08] Okay. +[5924.08 --> 5928.08] If there is a finite amount of something, if there is a limit to it. +[5928.08 --> 5930.08] There's not of this. +[5930.08 --> 5931.08] Hold on. +[5931.08 --> 5935.08] If, if there is a finite amount of something and there's a limit to it, and then I mean, +[5935.08 --> 5936.08] there are limits. +[5936.08 --> 5937.08] Not really. +[5937.08 --> 5938.08] There are. +[5938.08 --> 5939.08] Not in the way they're talking about it. +[5939.08 --> 5940.08] But yes, there are. +[5940.08 --> 5945.08] There are limits to how much internet traffic could conceivably, if every single person +[5945.08 --> 5950.08] fired up Breaking Bad on Netflix at exactly the same time, we'd have a problem. +[5950.08 --> 5951.08] And they won't. +[5951.08 --> 5952.08] And they won't. +[5952.08 --> 5955.08] But if they did. +[5955.08 --> 5963.08] Where my issue starts is when you don't subsidize the light users with the money you're taking +[5963.08 --> 5964.08] from the heavy users. +[5964.08 --> 5966.08] If it was drastically cheaper, cheapier? +[5966.08 --> 5969.08] If it was drastically cheaper for the light users, then it might make a little bit worse. +[5969.08 --> 5974.08] So ICBC, our, our crown owned actually, are they private now? +[5974.08 --> 5975.08] Can't remember. +[5975.08 --> 5983.08] Anyway, ICBC, our monopolistic insurance provider here in British Columbia, introduced some stiffer +[5983.08 --> 5985.08] penalties for people who get tickets. +[5985.08 --> 5990.08] So you don't actually have to get in an accident, but you can just be speeding and your insurance +[5990.08 --> 5991.08] premiums will go up. +[5991.08 --> 5999.08] And they said this was to make the roads safer and more affordable for the safe drivers. +[5999.08 --> 6003.08] To which I said, where is my discount? +[6003.08 --> 6009.08] You're taking more money from somebody and then eating it? +[6009.08 --> 6010.08] Presumably? +[6010.08 --> 6012.08] Well, ICBC is a giant piece of crap. +[6012.08 --> 6013.08] Yes. +[6013.08 --> 6019.08] So, if Verizon wants to do this, if they want to say, okay, we're going to charge the heavier +[6019.08 --> 6026.08] users, in addition to charging guys like Netflix, just for the privilege of, of being allowed +[6026.08 --> 6029.08] to deliver their, their movies to Verizon users. +[6029.08 --> 6035.08] If Verizon is going to charge the heavy users more, then I want to see free internet for +[6035.08 --> 6037.08] web surfing and email. +[6037.08 --> 6039.08] That's my challenge to you, Verizon. +[6039.08 --> 6043.08] If you do that, rock on, man. +[6043.08 --> 6050.08] If you truly make it, it pay per use or not pay at all per light user, and you are actually +[6050.08 --> 6057.08] genuinely trying to innovate and deliver a more connected experience to the world, and +[6057.08 --> 6061.08] you just need to figure out how to collect the money to make that happen and you're not +[6061.08 --> 6064.08] being evil about it, then that's fine. +[6064.08 --> 6069.08] But if you're just figuring out ways to charge more, and you're not figuring out ways to give +[6069.08 --> 6073.08] anything back, then you can screw off. +[6073.08 --> 6074.08] Yeah. +[6074.08 --> 6075.08] Essentially. +[6075.08 --> 6076.08] So you're not going to fight with me. +[6076.08 --> 6080.08] Well, it's, it's completely bullshit on more levels than that though, because they're, +[6080.08 --> 6082.08] they're not necessarily going outside of terms. +[6082.08 --> 6087.08] All they're saying is, yeah, if you, you, if you use 15 gigs in a day, that's a lot. +[6087.08 --> 6091.08] Uh, whoever just put it in slow mode, don't do that. +[6091.08 --> 6094.08] I've said that like 10 billion times. +[6094.08 --> 6097.08] Yeah, we don't really, we don't really do the whole slow mode thing. +[6097.08 --> 6098.08] All right. +[6098.08 --> 6106.08] I think I have one more thing to talk about before we do the announcement for the winners +[6106.08 --> 6108.08] for the LTT 2014 update giveaways. +[6108.08 --> 6109.08] So those are coming. +[6109.08 --> 6112.08] I have more to say on the Verizon topic, but we don't have time right now. +[6112.08 --> 6113.08] Do you? +[6113.08 --> 6114.08] You can go ahead. +[6114.08 --> 6115.08] It's long. +[6115.08 --> 6116.08] It's like 630 already. +[6116.08 --> 6119.08] Maybe you won't know what, I want to add it to like, uh, the notes for next week. +[6119.08 --> 6120.08] Okay. +[6120.08 --> 6121.08] We'll discuss it some more. +[6121.08 --> 6124.08] Cause I think it's a, it's a really good debate topic, even if it's not necessarily news +[6124.08 --> 6125.08] next week. +[6125.08 --> 6126.08] Okay. +[6126.08 --> 6135.08] So Razer has released a keyboard with what they're calling Razer mechanical key switches. +[6135.08 --> 6141.08] Now the internet has exploded in a way that I actually didn't expect. +[6141.08 --> 6146.08] I knew that the keyboard dorks of the world, two of which are sitting on this couch would +[6146.08 --> 6151.08] have a lot to say about something like this, but I didn't expect the enthusiast community +[6151.08 --> 6158.08] in general to have as much of a problem with what Razer's doing as they do. +[6158.08 --> 6161.08] So what's your take on the, okay. +[6161.08 --> 6162.08] So to be clear, there we go. +[6162.08 --> 6163.08] There we go. +[6163.08 --> 6164.08] That's exactly where we want to be. +[6164.08 --> 6165.08] That's what we want to look at it. +[6165.08 --> 6167.08] This key switch, see that? +[6167.08 --> 6169.08] Oh, it doesn't say cherry on it. +[6169.08 --> 6175.08] It looks an awful lot like a cherry key switch, the housing, the mount on the top for the key +[6175.08 --> 6178.08] cap, the led positioning right there, but it says Razer on it. +[6178.08 --> 6185.08] So what Razer's done is they have stopped using Cherry MX keys for their Black Widow Ultimate +[6185.08 --> 6187.08] line of keyboards. +[6187.08 --> 6194.08] They are not specifying who is manufacturing them, but the internet already knows who it +[6194.08 --> 6195.08] is. +[6195.08 --> 6196.08] It's Kale. +[6196.08 --> 6207.08] They are saying that they have done their own work with respect to R&Ding a switch that +[6207.08 --> 6216.08] is better for gaming because of its higher actuation point and faster reset once you let go of the +[6216.08 --> 6221.08] switch, once you let go of the key so that you are able to more quickly activate it in +[6221.08 --> 6223.08] a repetitive fashion. +[6223.08 --> 6228.08] They are allowed to do this because Cherry's patent on the MX switches has run out at this +[6228.08 --> 6233.08] time, so other manufacturers, while there were counterfeit switches before, are now free +[6233.08 --> 6236.08] without being slapped with a counterfeit lawsuit. +[6236.08 --> 6239.08] It's been open for a little while. +[6239.08 --> 6240.08] But now it's happening. +[6240.08 --> 6243.08] The counterfeit thing hasn't been a problem for a really long time. +[6243.08 --> 6246.08] I mean, there were... +[6246.08 --> 6247.08] Okay. +[6247.08 --> 6248.08] Okay. +[6248.08 --> 6251.08] There were counterfeit keyboards. +[6251.08 --> 6252.08] Keyboards. +[6252.08 --> 6254.08] But not what people would say recently. +[6254.08 --> 6255.08] Okay. +[6255.08 --> 6256.08] So, anyway. +[6256.08 --> 6265.08] This is the first major brand name manufacturer to bring a keyboard that is using switches manufactured +[6265.08 --> 6271.08] by Kale, although Razer says that in the Chinese factory they have their own QC staff overseeing +[6271.08 --> 6272.08] the production. +[6272.08 --> 6279.08] They are the first major manufacturer to bring Kale made switches to market. +[6279.08 --> 6282.08] I think that was pretty much all there was to say. +[6282.08 --> 6283.08] What do you... +[6283.08 --> 6284.08] What's your thoughts? +[6284.08 --> 6289.08] Um, there's been people wondering if it's actually, like, actually going to fix the +[6289.08 --> 6292.08] problem with blues because they're not entirely sure about the movement. +[6292.08 --> 6297.08] Because what some people wanted to actually see was a movement of the reset point. +[6297.08 --> 6299.08] Yeah, they didn't move the reset point. +[6299.08 --> 6300.08] Yeah. +[6300.08 --> 6304.08] Um, and like, there's a few other things going around which I guess we'll figure it out when +[6304.08 --> 6305.08] people get more testing done. +[6305.08 --> 6306.08] Yep. +[6306.08 --> 6308.08] We don't have time to, like, benchmark a keyboard. +[6308.08 --> 6309.08] Well, Edsel's got it at home right now. +[6309.08 --> 6310.08] I think he's playing around with it. +[6310.08 --> 6313.08] Has he ever noticed the problem with blues? +[6313.08 --> 6314.08] I'm not sure. +[6314.08 --> 6315.08] I thought so. +[6315.08 --> 6316.08] Have you? +[6316.08 --> 6317.08] I was talking to him about it. +[6317.08 --> 6318.08] Okay. +[6318.08 --> 6319.08] Yeah. +[6319.08 --> 6320.08] I'll check with him. +[6320.08 --> 6321.08] But he's got it. +[6321.08 --> 6322.08] And he has Black Widow 2013 as well. +[6322.08 --> 6323.08] Yeah. +[6323.08 --> 6324.08] Yeah. +[6324.08 --> 6325.08] So... +[6325.08 --> 6326.08] Okay. +[6326.08 --> 6327.08] So go ahead. +[6327.08 --> 6330.08] Um, other than that, like, one thing that people have to kind of get over is the, like, +[6330.08 --> 6333.08] oh my god, it's made by Kale, it's terrible thing. +[6333.08 --> 6336.08] Because Kale doesn't necessarily make terrible switches. +[6336.08 --> 6340.08] Uh, more than one person has done, like, a dissection, uh, Ripster more specifically, +[6340.08 --> 6345.08] you can look up his, on Kale switches, and they're fairly well in tune with the Cherry +[6345.08 --> 6346.08] Patton. +[6346.08 --> 6349.08] And if you're that well in tune with the Cherry Patton, it's probably going to be kind of +[6349.08 --> 6350.08] fine. +[6350.08 --> 6353.08] Um, now there's, there's things you can question about. +[6353.08 --> 6356.08] Whereas, like, uh, what's, what's their manufacturing tolerances? +[6356.08 --> 6358.08] Are they the same as Cherry's manufacturing tolerances? +[6358.08 --> 6359.08] They're saying they're better. +[6359.08 --> 6362.08] They're saying they're better, but we don't, this is... +[6362.08 --> 6364.08] I don't have a thousand keyboards to... +[6364.08 --> 6365.08] Exactly. +[6365.08 --> 6370.08] Like, uh, there's a lot of, like, we can't really prove this going on. +[6370.08 --> 6376.08] You know, I think the only thing, and that's, that's the thing, is there's a lot of, this +[6376.08 --> 6380.08] bothers me because I feel like this, or this doesn't bother me because I feel like this. +[6380.08 --> 6381.08] Yeah. +[6381.08 --> 6385.08] But I think the only objective thing that I can look at and say that I'm bothered by is +[6385.08 --> 6390.08] that I know for a fact, Kale switches are cheaper than Cherry's and the keyboard costs +[6390.08 --> 6391.08] the same. +[6391.08 --> 6392.08] Yeah. +[6392.08 --> 6393.08] And otherwise hasn't changed. +[6393.08 --> 6398.08] I mean, I think this was an opportunity for Razer to make mechanical keyboards more affordable +[6398.08 --> 6399.08] for gamers. +[6399.08 --> 6400.08] And they didn't... +[6400.08 --> 6402.08] Someone else will just swoop in and do it. +[6402.08 --> 6403.08] Yeah. +[6403.08 --> 6404.08] And someone else, someone else already has. +[6404.08 --> 6408.08] I mean, you can buy a TT Esports Poseidon Z for 80 bucks. +[6408.08 --> 6409.08] 70. +[6409.08 --> 6410.08] 70 bucks, I think. +[6410.08 --> 6411.08] And that, or is it 80? +[6411.08 --> 6412.08] I think it's 80. +[6412.08 --> 6417.08] And that is a blue backlit Kale mechanical keyboard. +[6417.08 --> 6418.08] Reasonably well built. +[6418.08 --> 6419.08] Yeah. +[6419.08 --> 6422.08] So, there you go. +[6422.08 --> 6425.08] The internet is up in arms. +[6425.08 --> 6428.08] Guys, do check out the video if you haven't had a chance yet. +[6428.08 --> 6431.08] Razer Black Widow Ultimate 2014 is the name of the video. +[6431.08 --> 6434.08] Obviously, it's on Linus Tech Tips channel. +[6434.08 --> 6440.08] Where I cover some of the reasons that Razer gave for switching to a Chinese manufacturer. +[6440.08 --> 6442.08] And I cover some of the reasons that I'm aware of. +[6442.08 --> 6446.08] Someone just said Linus Media Group gets paid for their opinions in quotation marks. +[6446.08 --> 6447.08] Opinions? +[6447.08 --> 6449.08] I think someone's claiming we got paid off by Razer. +[6449.08 --> 6450.08] For the video? +[6450.08 --> 6451.08] I don't know. +[6451.08 --> 6452.08] We get... +[6452.08 --> 6455.08] That's funny, because I actually had Corsair. +[6455.08 --> 6460.08] I actually had both Corsair and Cooler Master contact me about this video. +[6460.08 --> 6465.08] And, uh, Corsair really liked it. +[6465.08 --> 6470.08] And it's every single video we ever do, they're like, +[6470.08 --> 6472.08] Well, you just got paid off. +[6472.08 --> 6474.08] You got the money to make the video. +[6474.08 --> 6475.08] Like, no. +[6475.08 --> 6476.08] Yeah. +[6476.08 --> 6477.08] No. +[6477.08 --> 6478.08] I don't know. +[6478.08 --> 6479.08] Not so much. +[6479.08 --> 6480.08] I'm excited to see what people think. +[6480.08 --> 6483.08] Speaking of being paid off, One Wipe Charlie's! +[6483.08 --> 6485.08] Butt Wipes for Men! +[6485.08 --> 6488.08] I actually, I hadn't opened them yet, so the reason I opened them was I wanted to know... +[6488.08 --> 6489.08] They smell kinda good. +[6489.08 --> 6490.08] Peppermint infused. +[6490.08 --> 6493.08] I wanted to know how big they were. +[6493.08 --> 6497.08] Because if you're gonna tell me that I can get this done with one wipe... +[6497.08 --> 6498.08] Uh... +[6498.08 --> 6501.08] Okay, well they're thick. +[6501.08 --> 6504.08] I'll give them that, so you might not get much lead through. +[6504.08 --> 6505.08] What are we doing? +[6505.08 --> 6506.08] I don't know about one wipe. +[6506.08 --> 6507.08] What are we doing? +[6507.08 --> 6510.08] Although the instructions do say that it's not... +[6510.08 --> 6516.08] Even though they're called One Wipe Charlie's, you can't necessarily achieve the desired results +[6516.08 --> 6517.08] with just one wipe. +[6517.08 --> 6522.08] So, use as many wipes as necessary to get the job done, but try not to flush more than a couple +[6522.08 --> 6523.08] at a time. +[6523.08 --> 6525.08] And dry off with TP. +[6525.08 --> 6527.08] And then the lid is actually resealable. +[6527.08 --> 6530.08] It uses a nice little adhesive here that... +[6530.08 --> 6531.08] I'm sorry, I'll stop now. +[6531.08 --> 6536.08] You don't need to inspect the packaging on the One Wipe Charlie's. +[6536.08 --> 6537.08] I'm a professional unboxer. +[6537.08 --> 6539.08] You were a professional unboxer. +[6539.08 --> 6540.08] And you know what? +[6540.08 --> 6541.08] That's actually... +[6541.08 --> 6542.08] It's funny. +[6542.08 --> 6543.08] Okay, I paid off to make the Razer review. +[6543.08 --> 6551.08] And it's funny because Min, their CEO, specifically took a shot at me for one of the things that I +[6551.08 --> 6556.08] said in that video, which was that I think their packaging is deceptive to their customers. +[6556.08 --> 6557.08] And I think that not... +[6557.08 --> 6558.08] Because it is. +[6558.08 --> 6563.08] They're not labeling something 2013 or 2014 edition when you're putting Cherry MX switches +[6563.08 --> 6566.08] and Chinese-made switches is... +[6566.08 --> 6573.08] I think Razer's rationale here is that we're QCing them, they're of the same quality. +[6573.08 --> 6575.08] And I get that. +[6575.08 --> 6579.08] But when you revise something, you tell your customers. +[6579.08 --> 6580.08] Yeah. +[6580.08 --> 6582.08] I don't try to obscure that in my mind. +[6582.08 --> 6583.08] So I've... +[6583.08 --> 6585.08] That's been the biggest problem with QL switches though. +[6585.08 --> 6586.08] Right. +[6586.08 --> 6588.08] Is that people are like, oh no, it's fine. +[6588.08 --> 6590.08] We say Cherry mechanical switches for everything else. +[6590.08 --> 6592.08] And then here we're just saying mechanical switches. +[6592.08 --> 6596.08] And I'm like, well, like, just come on. +[6596.08 --> 6597.08] Yeah. +[6597.08 --> 6599.08] Like we're not saying they're worse. +[6599.08 --> 6601.08] On the other hand, look at it from the manufacturer's perspective. +[6601.08 --> 6604.08] So let's take, let's take Thermaltake. +[6604.08 --> 6605.08] Okay. +[6605.08 --> 6607.08] So the Poseidon Z just says mechanical key switches. +[6607.08 --> 6608.08] It doesn't say Cherry. +[6608.08 --> 6611.08] Why would you say Kale? +[6611.08 --> 6612.08] It's not like it's... +[6612.08 --> 6614.08] Well, you don't have to on your big branding. +[6614.08 --> 6615.08] Well, why would you at all? +[6615.08 --> 6619.08] But like if people ask questions, don't just hush up and hide in the corner. +[6619.08 --> 6620.08] Oh, well, okay. +[6620.08 --> 6621.08] They're not doing that. +[6621.08 --> 6622.08] I know. +[6622.08 --> 6623.08] They're not. +[6623.08 --> 6624.08] Right. +[6624.08 --> 6625.08] But it happens a lot. +[6625.08 --> 6626.08] Right. +[6626.08 --> 6627.08] And they kind of are actually by not... +[6627.08 --> 6628.08] Thermaltake? +[6628.08 --> 6629.08] No, no, no, no. +[6629.08 --> 6630.08] Razer. +[6630.08 --> 6631.08] Oh, no. +[6631.08 --> 6632.08] Razer didn't tell me they're being manufactured at Kale. +[6632.08 --> 6633.08] I had to dig around for that. +[6633.08 --> 6634.08] Yeah. +[6634.08 --> 6635.08] And I'm... +[6635.08 --> 6638.08] By saying they kind of are, I'm meaning by not changing branding at all. +[6638.08 --> 6639.08] Yeah. +[6639.08 --> 6640.08] Okay. +[6640.08 --> 6643.08] No, I was saying Thermaltake hasn't done that because they are... +[6643.08 --> 6646.08] Even though on the product page, you're not going to find any reference to Kale. +[6646.08 --> 6651.08] But I think that's probably a good thing because you look at what happened with Cherry being +[6651.08 --> 6656.08] the one who owns all the brand equity here. +[6656.08 --> 6658.08] That's what people look at. +[6658.08 --> 6663.08] They go on monoprice.com and they see Cherry MX Blue keyboard. +[6663.08 --> 6665.08] It's not a particularly great keyboard. +[6665.08 --> 6666.08] It's not real well built. +[6666.08 --> 6671.08] So the guys who are building really great keyboards like Ducky or like Cooler Master or +[6671.08 --> 6672.08] whatever else. +[6672.08 --> 6675.08] But part of the problem is that Kale is making switches in the same... +[6675.08 --> 6676.08] With the same differential. +[6676.08 --> 6677.08] Okay, but forget Kale. +[6677.08 --> 6678.08] Hold on a second. +[6678.08 --> 6679.08] So they're saying like it's a red. +[6679.08 --> 6681.08] So they'll be like red mechanical switch. +[6681.08 --> 6684.08] And then everyone's looking for Cherry red mechanical switches. +[6684.08 --> 6686.08] Okay, that is not great. +[6686.08 --> 6687.08] That's like what everyone's doing. +[6687.08 --> 6689.08] That's why this is a problem. +[6689.08 --> 6690.08] I know. +[6690.08 --> 6691.08] Like it... +[6691.08 --> 6693.08] They have to tell you. +[6693.08 --> 6694.08] And they're not. +[6694.08 --> 6695.08] Most of them. +[6695.08 --> 6696.08] Okay, but hold on a second. +[6696.08 --> 6698.08] Okay, this is where I'm going with this. +[6698.08 --> 6705.08] So the keyboard makers have let Cherry hold all the brand equity and have made the Cherry +[6705.08 --> 6706.08] keyboard the desirable thing. +[6706.08 --> 6708.08] Even though Cherry's own keyboards aren't really that great. +[6708.08 --> 6709.08] Well, they screwed that up. +[6709.08 --> 6710.08] Hold on! +[6710.08 --> 6716.08] But the direction they're trying to go is they're trying to make the product stand alone. +[6716.08 --> 6718.08] And that's not a bad direction. +[6718.08 --> 6720.08] No, but they're also hiding something. +[6720.08 --> 6723.08] Do you have to tell everyone everything? +[6723.08 --> 6724.08] Have it on the spec sheet. +[6724.08 --> 6730.08] Does Logitech have to tell you what material this is? +[6730.08 --> 6734.08] As long as it's like really good and it's really high quality and Logitech mice are great. +[6734.08 --> 6736.08] But that's never been something that people purchase off of. +[6736.08 --> 6737.08] Right. +[6737.08 --> 6738.08] So... +[6738.08 --> 6742.08] They have made it so that you're purchasing based off a switch. +[6742.08 --> 6745.08] And it's not like this, to be completely honest. +[6745.08 --> 6746.08] This is not as important as a switch. +[6746.08 --> 6748.08] But everyone tries to do the same thing. +[6748.08 --> 6751.08] You look at the way Dell wants to sell you Apple. +[6751.08 --> 6752.08] Great example. +[6752.08 --> 6755.08] And we know Apple's approach is terrible for this. +[6755.08 --> 6757.08] What do you mean terrible for this? +[6757.08 --> 6759.08] Not changing naming so you have no idea what's going on. +[6759.08 --> 6761.08] No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[6761.08 --> 6762.08] Not changing naming. +[6762.08 --> 6769.08] I'm talking about Apple taking the, the, the, taking the perception of the product and making it about the product, not about the components inside. +[6769.08 --> 6771.08] Apple barely even mentions Intel. +[6771.08 --> 6772.08] You can still look up a spec sheet. +[6772.08 --> 6773.08] You can still look up a spec sheet. +[6773.08 --> 6775.08] Sort of. +[6775.08 --> 6777.08] They don't tell you who makes the motherboard. +[6777.08 --> 6778.08] You, well, yeah. +[6778.08 --> 6780.08] And that's a very important part of a PC. +[6780.08 --> 6782.08] They don't tell you who makes the power supply. +[6782.08 --> 6784.08] It's a very important part of a PC. +[6784.08 --> 6785.08] What they're doing is- +[6785.08 --> 6789.08] But when there's like one component that really matters and that's the only one. +[6789.08 --> 6792.08] That is not the only thing that matters about a keyboard. +[6792.08 --> 6793.08] That's the main thing that matters about a keyboard. +[6793.08 --> 6796.08] I would argue drivers can matter as much about a keyboard. +[6796.08 --> 6797.08] So what are you going to do? +[6797.08 --> 6798.08] What do you mean? +[6798.08 --> 6799.08] With drivers? +[6799.08 --> 6800.08] What are you going to do with drivers? +[6800.08 --> 6802.08] Drivers don't show up on a spec sheet. +[6802.08 --> 6803.08] Well, features can. +[6803.08 --> 6805.08] Yes, they can. +[6805.08 --> 6808.08] And if you have a broken driver and the feature doesn't work, then that's terrible. +[6808.08 --> 6811.08] But you can't be like, we have a broken driver on your spec sheet. +[6811.08 --> 6814.08] You can say, we use something different for your Switch. +[6814.08 --> 6816.08] Those are not applicable differences. +[6816.08 --> 6821.08] I don't think we're going to reach a conclusion. +[6821.08 --> 6822.08] I don't think we're going to reach a conclusion. +[6822.08 --> 6824.08] I don't think we are either. +[6824.08 --> 6827.08] And I think we should just draw our winners. +[6827.08 --> 6828.08] Probably. +[6828.08 --> 6829.08] Alright. +[6832.08 --> 6833.08] Okay, fine. +[6833.08 --> 6835.08] All I'm trying to say is I see why they're doing that. +[6835.08 --> 6837.08] They're making about the product, not about the components. +[6837.08 --> 6838.08] They're hiding something. +[6838.08 --> 6839.08] Okay. +[6839.08 --> 6841.08] There's a difference between actively hiding something. +[6841.08 --> 6842.08] And I would argue that... +[6842.08 --> 6843.08] Not showing it on your spec sheet. +[6843.08 --> 6844.08] I would argue Razer's hiding something. +[6844.08 --> 6845.08] Okay. +[6845.08 --> 6846.08] There's a difference between hiding something and not saying something. +[6846.08 --> 6847.08] But not when... +[6847.08 --> 6849.08] Another thing comes in where the Apple customer is often different than the person who's looking +[6849.08 --> 6850.08] for a high-end, very specific mechanical keyboard. +[6850.08 --> 6851.08] Okay. +[6851.08 --> 6856.08] And if they're looking for a very specific mechanical keyboard, and the manufacturer makes the argument +[6856.08 --> 6869.08] that regardless of who made the metal piece that goes in the back, or who made the key switch, +[6869.08 --> 6873.08] or whatever else, we are delivering you the uberly hacks or-or-correct paper, and who made the metal piece +[6873.08 --> 6878.08] that goes in the back, or who made the key switch, or whatever else, we are delivering you the uberly hacksword +[6878.08 --> 6880.06] the Uberleat Axor keyboard 5000, +[6880.86 --> 6881.76] and you shouldn't care +[6881.76 --> 6883.72] because we're doing a great job of either one of them +[6883.72 --> 6884.80] and you won't be able to tell the difference, +[6885.30 --> 6886.36] then does it matter anymore? +[6887.06 --> 6888.20] So, why? +[6888.68 --> 6890.80] Because when you're shopping, okay, +[6891.28 --> 6892.84] when you're shopping for a keyboard, let's go look. +[6894.04 --> 6895.82] I know how people shop now. +[6896.76 --> 6897.60] I'm saying how people will shop. +[6897.60 --> 6900.14] Because those are the major, massive, +[6900.40 --> 6901.56] noticeable differences on keyboards. +[6902.00 --> 6904.20] There are things on keyboards that are very important. +[6904.20 --> 6905.78] But what if you don't want +[6905.78 --> 6907.68] the major, massive, noticeable difference on your keyboard? +[6907.68 --> 6908.56] It doesn't matter what you want. +[6908.56 --> 6908.78] Hold on, no. +[6908.80 --> 6909.82] That's what makes the difference. +[6909.82 --> 6910.00] Okay, wait. +[6910.22 --> 6911.34] What if you don't want +[6911.34 --> 6913.54] the major, massive, noticeable difference +[6913.54 --> 6914.20] on your keyboard +[6914.20 --> 6916.16] to be about someone else's thing? +[6916.34 --> 6918.48] What if you want the major, massive, noticeable difference +[6918.48 --> 6920.82] to be that this is the Uberleat Axor 5000 +[6920.82 --> 6921.80] and it's better than the other ones? +[6921.80 --> 6922.98] So make that all your branding. +[6923.30 --> 6924.84] And when someone dives through your webpage +[6924.84 --> 6926.04] and goes to the spec sheet, +[6926.04 --> 6927.52] it should still say what switch it is. +[6927.70 --> 6927.96] Why? +[6928.64 --> 6930.40] Apple doesn't say what motherboard's in it. +[6930.48 --> 6931.90] No one gives a blank. +[6932.46 --> 6932.80] Bleep. +[6933.28 --> 6934.76] They don't say what SSD it is. +[6935.06 --> 6936.58] These are phenomenally important things +[6936.58 --> 6937.54] and people do care. +[6937.68 --> 6939.12] Not nearly as much. +[6939.20 --> 6940.34] And people tear them apart +[6940.34 --> 6941.52] and they find out +[6941.52 --> 6943.20] and you'll find it on ifixit.com +[6943.20 --> 6944.34] and that all happens. +[6944.52 --> 6945.74] And that'll happen with this too. +[6945.78 --> 6946.44] It already did. +[6946.58 --> 6948.02] So do that over generations. +[6948.48 --> 6949.78] Well, you have to do it at some point. +[6950.14 --> 6951.02] Do that over generations. +[6951.14 --> 6951.34] Why? +[6951.60 --> 6952.56] Slowly push it back. +[6952.72 --> 6954.36] Right now, don't have it as your big marketing +[6954.36 --> 6955.56] because right now it's your big marketing. +[6956.02 --> 6958.16] Bring it down to, in your first blurb, +[6958.22 --> 6960.02] then maybe bring it down to the spec sheet eventually. +[6960.24 --> 6960.40] Why? +[6960.40 --> 6961.66] And then when you remove it from the spec sheet, +[6961.76 --> 6962.58] everyone will murder you +[6962.58 --> 6963.28] because you're an idiot. +[6964.56 --> 6964.92] What? +[6964.92 --> 6965.60] Why? +[6965.76 --> 6966.58] Because you're looking at +[6966.58 --> 6967.98] a completely different crowd of people. +[6968.12 --> 6969.48] These are the people that want the spec sheet. +[6970.28 --> 6972.48] I would argue that Razor caters +[6972.48 --> 6973.78] to a more mainstream crowd. +[6974.94 --> 6976.94] I still don't really know if that's true +[6976.94 --> 6978.52] because there are massive, +[6978.78 --> 6979.70] major feeling differences. +[6979.96 --> 6980.82] Do you like reds? +[6980.90 --> 6981.90] Look at the comments. +[6981.94 --> 6982.58] Do you like reds? +[6983.18 --> 6984.10] No, I don't like reds. +[6984.18 --> 6984.96] Do you like browns? +[6985.30 --> 6985.76] No, I don't. +[6985.88 --> 6986.46] Oh, wait. +[6986.52 --> 6987.20] Yeah, I like browns. +[6987.26 --> 6987.42] What do you think? +[6988.12 --> 6988.94] Okay, yeah, sorry. +[6989.48 --> 6991.04] So would you like to know which one it comes with? +[6992.12 --> 6992.44] Yes. +[6993.24 --> 6994.34] Would you notice the difference +[6994.34 --> 6995.28] between a red and a brown +[6995.28 --> 6996.74] more than two different brands of SSD? +[6997.26 --> 6997.52] Yes. +[6999.42 --> 7001.98] Right, but that's not how they want people to shop. +[7002.44 --> 7003.84] But that's how you have to shop. +[7003.92 --> 7005.14] It's such a noticeable difference. +[7005.26 --> 7005.28] No, it isn't. +[7005.28 --> 7007.12] That's how you have to shop now. +[7007.30 --> 7008.30] That's like saying, okay, +[7008.70 --> 7009.78] BMW offers a car. +[7011.08 --> 7012.66] Oh, it just showed up and it's a truck. +[7013.34 --> 7013.62] No, it isn't. +[7013.62 --> 7014.86] It doesn't matter because that's what you should like. +[7014.86 --> 7018.08] It's like BMW saying this is the X3. +[7018.70 --> 7021.12] And the X3 comes with whatever delivers +[7021.12 --> 7022.70] the horsepower we said it does +[7022.70 --> 7024.22] and the torque we said it does +[7024.22 --> 7025.80] with the fuel economy we said it does. +[7025.82 --> 7027.24] But those are specs that they're telling you it does. +[7027.64 --> 7028.00] Right. +[7028.20 --> 7029.64] That's like a spec of that switch it is. +[7029.66 --> 7031.16] And Razor's saying, here's a key. +[7031.52 --> 7032.50] You don't get it. +[7032.62 --> 7034.28] Razor's saying, here's a key switch +[7034.28 --> 7035.96] that actuates at this point, +[7036.38 --> 7037.58] clicks in a tactile way, +[7037.82 --> 7038.70] sounds like this, +[7039.00 --> 7040.94] and they're giving you the specs. +[7041.04 --> 7042.34] Harder to understand specs. +[7042.34 --> 7045.12] That's not the manufacturer's problem. +[7045.46 --> 7047.48] You're making it actually less mainstream then +[7047.48 --> 7049.14] because they're saying Razor caters +[7049.14 --> 7050.16] to the mainstream audience. +[7050.68 --> 7050.88] Yeah. +[7051.02 --> 7052.46] They're saying this is a gaming keyboard +[7052.46 --> 7054.20] that has tactile feedback and clicks. +[7054.52 --> 7055.74] That's all the mainstream audience +[7055.74 --> 7056.54] will ever need to know. +[7057.34 --> 7058.32] What does that mean +[7058.32 --> 7059.36] if you haven't typed on one before? +[7059.58 --> 7060.28] If you ask, +[7060.52 --> 7061.60] if you look online, +[7061.74 --> 7062.24] people will be like, +[7062.30 --> 7063.26] these are the different typing experience +[7063.26 --> 7063.78] of these colors. +[7064.12 --> 7065.32] Now you can shop for whatever you want. +[7065.40 --> 7065.62] Uh-huh. +[7065.80 --> 7066.60] Now it's a green. +[7066.72 --> 7067.38] What the hell does that mean? +[7067.38 --> 7068.76] There's already a green in existence. +[7068.88 --> 7069.44] Now it'll be... +[7069.44 --> 7070.78] If you see a Razor key switch, +[7070.84 --> 7072.02] which is in green already +[7072.02 --> 7073.00] because it's a Razor key switch +[7073.00 --> 7073.56] and that makes sense +[7073.56 --> 7074.12] because that goes along +[7074.12 --> 7074.60] with their branding. +[7075.04 --> 7076.12] And then you go look up +[7076.12 --> 7077.54] green mechanical key switches. +[7077.98 --> 7079.14] You're going to get cherry switches, +[7079.54 --> 7080.74] which cheap green mechanical +[7080.74 --> 7081.32] cherry switches +[7081.32 --> 7083.12] are completely massively different. +[7083.34 --> 7084.64] So now the way it'll work +[7084.64 --> 7086.64] is what's the typing experience like +[7086.64 --> 7088.20] on the Black Widow Ultimate 2014? +[7089.04 --> 7090.52] Which is really confusing. +[7091.44 --> 7091.96] That's... +[7091.96 --> 7092.20] Okay. +[7092.58 --> 7093.34] It might be confusing to you. +[7093.34 --> 7093.66] Hopefully, +[7093.80 --> 7094.98] hopefully that changes... +[7094.98 --> 7096.30] Because you're a keyboard dork. +[7096.44 --> 7096.56] No, +[7096.60 --> 7097.28] I'm not saying... +[7097.28 --> 7098.56] It's not confusing to me though. +[7098.70 --> 7099.72] I'm saying it's really confusing +[7099.72 --> 7100.16] on the internet +[7100.16 --> 7100.84] because there's going to be +[7100.84 --> 7102.04] a ton of flying around +[7102.04 --> 7102.88] crazy information. +[7102.90 --> 7102.98] There will be, +[7103.06 --> 7103.66] but I mean... +[7103.66 --> 7104.40] Because people are going to hate on it. +[7104.42 --> 7105.78] You look at all the flying around +[7105.78 --> 7107.20] information about Razor. +[7107.30 --> 7108.10] You look at the comments +[7108.10 --> 7108.76] on the video +[7108.76 --> 7111.02] about how blah, blah, blah, +[7111.12 --> 7111.78] I hate this, +[7111.86 --> 7112.78] it's unreliable, that... +[7112.78 --> 7113.04] It doesn't work, +[7113.04 --> 7113.22] whatever. +[7113.64 --> 7114.98] That doesn't stop Razor +[7114.98 --> 7116.44] from being enormous. +[7116.80 --> 7117.00] Yeah. +[7117.68 --> 7119.08] So it doesn't matter. +[7119.78 --> 7121.46] The internet can be all butthurt +[7121.46 --> 7122.50] about this, +[7123.14 --> 7124.30] but at the end of the day, +[7124.70 --> 7125.74] Razor will change +[7125.74 --> 7126.70] the way people shop +[7126.70 --> 7127.24] for keyboards. +[7128.10 --> 7128.54] Hopefully. +[7129.34 --> 7129.94] Or... +[7129.94 --> 7130.94] I don't even think hopefully. +[7131.14 --> 7131.30] I mean, +[7131.34 --> 7131.66] I don't... +[7131.66 --> 7132.24] I don't... +[7132.24 --> 7134.60] I don't disagree with you +[7134.60 --> 7135.38] that I want to know +[7135.38 --> 7136.60] what Switch is on a bloody keyboard. +[7137.14 --> 7138.08] That's not the argument +[7138.08 --> 7138.58] we're having. +[7138.88 --> 7139.88] The argument we're having +[7139.88 --> 7141.50] is that from the company's perspective, +[7141.98 --> 7143.80] and it's a smart business move, +[7143.98 --> 7144.78] people should shop +[7144.78 --> 7145.76] for a keyboard, +[7146.04 --> 7147.10] not for a Switch. +[7147.90 --> 7148.74] That's how they want +[7148.74 --> 7149.44] people to shop. +[7149.78 --> 7150.68] But then their main branding +[7150.68 --> 7151.24] is a Switch. +[7151.46 --> 7152.20] Their main branding +[7152.20 --> 7152.58] is a Switch +[7152.58 --> 7154.10] because they have to... +[7154.10 --> 7155.50] They have to talk about it. +[7155.88 --> 7156.78] They have no choice. +[7157.30 --> 7158.10] They can't say, +[7158.26 --> 7159.06] here's the keyboard, +[7159.14 --> 7159.96] because that's how people +[7159.96 --> 7161.02] shop for keyboards right now, +[7161.08 --> 7161.70] based on the Switch. +[7161.76 --> 7162.40] So they were talking +[7162.40 --> 7163.58] about this Switch a lot. +[7164.14 --> 7165.06] And they're talking about... +[7165.06 --> 7165.48] I mean, really, +[7165.56 --> 7166.50] their marketing is really +[7166.50 --> 7168.22] about how similar it is +[7168.22 --> 7169.50] to the last one they had, +[7169.56 --> 7170.08] which everyone knows +[7170.08 --> 7170.50] is a Cherry Alex Blue. +[7170.50 --> 7171.46] Then they've screwed up +[7171.46 --> 7172.88] some things very majorly, +[7172.94 --> 7173.16] I know. +[7173.30 --> 7174.32] Okay, look at it this way. +[7174.44 --> 7175.32] What about when they stopped +[7175.32 --> 7176.24] using Omron switches +[7176.24 --> 7176.80] on their mice? +[7177.64 --> 7178.64] Do you even remember that? +[7178.86 --> 7179.14] Yes. +[7179.46 --> 7180.18] Okay, you do. +[7180.42 --> 7181.06] Does the internet +[7181.06 --> 7182.30] at large remember that? +[7182.40 --> 7183.56] Okay, with this page, +[7183.70 --> 7184.30] all I care about +[7184.30 --> 7184.76] is that one. +[7185.26 --> 7186.16] I don't care about this one. +[7186.22 --> 7186.68] The green switch +[7186.68 --> 7187.64] versus the orange switch. +[7187.70 --> 7188.96] Because green switches exist. +[7189.56 --> 7191.70] Okay, I agree with you +[7191.70 --> 7193.32] that they should have used +[7193.32 --> 7194.52] colors that don't exist. +[7194.66 --> 7195.24] And I understand +[7195.24 --> 7195.98] green is their branding. +[7196.06 --> 7196.66] And I understand +[7196.66 --> 7197.84] green is their branding too. +[7197.84 --> 7199.12] And I agree +[7199.12 --> 7200.00] that it is going +[7200.00 --> 7201.20] to create confusion. +[7201.58 --> 7203.00] But I don't disagree +[7203.00 --> 7204.36] with their move +[7204.36 --> 7205.66] of making it +[7205.66 --> 7206.78] about the product +[7206.78 --> 7207.80] and not about +[7207.80 --> 7208.52] the component level. +[7208.52 --> 7210.04] But they would have to do... +[7210.04 --> 7211.36] That's why I don't care +[7211.36 --> 7212.20] as much about the orange one. +[7212.52 --> 7212.74] Right. +[7212.98 --> 7213.56] Because at least +[7213.56 --> 7214.44] it's a different color +[7214.44 --> 7215.20] that Cherry doesn't have. +[7215.22 --> 7215.94] And if they used +[7215.94 --> 7217.06] something that was different +[7217.06 --> 7217.64] for this one, +[7217.72 --> 7218.30] I wouldn't really care +[7218.30 --> 7218.74] about that either. +[7218.90 --> 7219.68] Because at least +[7219.68 --> 7220.30] when someone goes +[7220.30 --> 7220.86] to this keyboard, +[7221.16 --> 7221.52] they're not going +[7221.52 --> 7222.62] to see green switch +[7222.62 --> 7223.92] and expect this super +[7223.92 --> 7225.90] crazy heavy ridiculous switch +[7225.90 --> 7226.46] that a lot of people +[7226.46 --> 7226.98] don't like. +[7227.26 --> 7227.52] Right. +[7228.04 --> 7228.88] Because it's too heavy. +[7228.96 --> 7229.26] But I mean, +[7229.30 --> 7229.84] there was a limit +[7229.84 --> 7230.68] to how many colors +[7230.68 --> 7231.32] there are too. +[7231.40 --> 7231.74] I know. +[7231.84 --> 7232.94] And Cherry already has. +[7232.96 --> 7235.00] Black, red, blue, green, +[7235.14 --> 7237.14] clear, red, gray, +[7237.32 --> 7238.04] dark gray, +[7238.12 --> 7238.84] and light gray. +[7239.32 --> 7240.44] And that's a problem. +[7240.78 --> 7241.00] Yep. +[7241.68 --> 7242.34] And that is. +[7242.54 --> 7243.06] And a lot of them +[7243.06 --> 7244.02] are out of service now +[7244.02 --> 7244.42] and most people +[7244.42 --> 7245.10] don't know they exist. +[7245.28 --> 7246.28] But still. +[7246.96 --> 7248.10] So I don't think +[7248.10 --> 7249.02] you and I necessarily +[7249.02 --> 7250.00] disagree as much +[7250.00 --> 7250.62] as I initially +[7250.62 --> 7251.42] thought we did. +[7251.60 --> 7252.14] I don't agree +[7252.14 --> 7253.24] with how they're doing it. +[7254.48 --> 7254.90] They could do it +[7254.90 --> 7256.14] if they just do... +[7256.14 --> 7257.22] Because there's information +[7257.22 --> 7257.70] on their switch. +[7257.78 --> 7258.50] They tell you what it is. +[7258.60 --> 7260.40] But it's extremely deceptive. +[7261.20 --> 7261.82] Because when you're +[7261.82 --> 7262.42] reading this, +[7262.68 --> 7263.38] you're not going, +[7264.28 --> 7265.68] oh, there's standard +[7265.68 --> 7267.22] mechanical switch actuation. +[7267.46 --> 7268.08] What does that mean? +[7268.08 --> 7268.48] But I mean, +[7268.54 --> 7269.40] there's legal reasons +[7269.40 --> 7270.26] that they can't say +[7270.26 --> 7271.00] Cherry switch. +[7271.24 --> 7271.30] I know. +[7271.48 --> 7272.10] And you know what? +[7272.32 --> 7273.30] I think they probably +[7273.30 --> 7274.62] would have liked to say that. +[7275.12 --> 7275.56] Cherry switch? +[7275.68 --> 7275.86] Yeah. +[7276.30 --> 7277.06] I could see that. +[7277.08 --> 7277.56] But legally, +[7277.70 --> 7278.68] you can't do that. +[7279.16 --> 7280.28] Yeah, because you're +[7280.28 --> 7280.88] going to have tons of problems. +[7281.16 --> 7282.14] I get that, +[7282.20 --> 7282.82] but then it's still +[7282.82 --> 7283.46] really deceptive +[7283.46 --> 7284.00] that it's green. +[7284.72 --> 7285.48] Yeah, I don't like +[7285.48 --> 7285.70] that it's green. +[7285.70 --> 7287.42] Luckily, it's not blue. +[7288.02 --> 7288.32] Yeah. +[7288.44 --> 7290.06] Because holy crap +[7290.06 --> 7290.78] if it was blue, +[7291.02 --> 7292.46] that would be brutal. +[7293.34 --> 7294.68] But green is still +[7294.68 --> 7295.96] popular enough +[7295.96 --> 7297.02] that it's still +[7297.02 --> 7297.70] a well-known switch. +[7297.88 --> 7299.14] And if I came to this site, +[7299.28 --> 7299.58] honestly, +[7299.76 --> 7301.32] if I came to this site +[7301.32 --> 7302.44] and it didn't say +[7302.44 --> 7304.24] Razer's first mechanical switch, +[7304.32 --> 7304.96] even if it did, +[7305.08 --> 7305.38] honestly, +[7305.50 --> 7306.50] I would just fully expect +[7306.50 --> 7307.44] that they rebranded, +[7307.74 --> 7308.66] that they paid Cherry +[7308.66 --> 7309.94] to rebrand their switches. +[7310.30 --> 7310.56] Right. +[7310.70 --> 7311.58] Because that happens so much. +[7311.58 --> 7312.46] This page we're looking at? +[7312.52 --> 7312.64] Sure. +[7312.72 --> 7312.88] Sorry, +[7312.96 --> 7313.24] I should have just +[7313.24 --> 7314.08] shown you this ages ago. +[7314.92 --> 7315.66] Because it just, +[7315.94 --> 7316.36] they look, +[7316.76 --> 7318.84] they look like Cherry switches. +[7319.50 --> 7320.60] Because they're basically +[7320.60 --> 7321.26] Cherry switches. +[7321.52 --> 7322.32] Want to know something funny? +[7322.86 --> 7323.70] This diagram +[7323.70 --> 7324.98] of the key switch +[7324.98 --> 7326.30] actually appears +[7326.30 --> 7328.08] to be the exact diagram +[7328.08 --> 7329.22] of the colors changed +[7329.22 --> 7330.68] of a Cherry key switch. +[7330.78 --> 7330.94] Yeah. +[7331.70 --> 7332.12] I just thought +[7332.12 --> 7332.82] that was kind of amusing. +[7333.08 --> 7333.24] Yeah. +[7333.38 --> 7333.56] Like, +[7333.60 --> 7334.66] if I wasn't looking +[7334.66 --> 7335.44] super closely +[7335.44 --> 7336.84] and I looked through this, +[7337.00 --> 7337.96] I'm not going to go, +[7338.18 --> 7338.54] okay, +[7338.70 --> 7339.96] I'm going to go, +[7340.00 --> 7340.08] oh, +[7340.10 --> 7340.90] it's a green switch +[7340.90 --> 7341.88] and then move on. +[7343.46 --> 7344.54] I would just assume +[7344.54 --> 7345.48] that it was a Cherry green. +[7345.60 --> 7346.26] Then in that case, +[7346.34 --> 7347.30] wouldn't it be better +[7347.30 --> 7348.52] if they called it a blue +[7348.52 --> 7349.62] and they just called it +[7349.62 --> 7350.30] a Razer, +[7350.42 --> 7351.64] a Razer blue switch? +[7352.56 --> 7352.90] No, +[7352.96 --> 7353.64] because then I would think +[7353.64 --> 7354.04] it's a Cherry, +[7354.04 --> 7354.26] well, +[7355.30 --> 7356.40] I don't think it would be +[7356.40 --> 7357.64] as big of a deal. +[7357.90 --> 7358.76] I wouldn't be as mad +[7358.76 --> 7359.36] when it showed up +[7359.36 --> 7359.96] because I wouldn't be able +[7359.96 --> 7360.74] to notice a difference. +[7361.44 --> 7362.24] But if I noticed +[7362.24 --> 7363.18] it was different in the end, +[7363.22 --> 7364.38] I would again just be like, +[7364.44 --> 7364.54] well, +[7364.56 --> 7365.68] that's really deceptive. +[7365.86 --> 7366.66] And I think they, +[7367.66 --> 7367.90] no, +[7368.02 --> 7369.48] because Cherry has green ones. +[7369.74 --> 7369.92] Yeah. +[7370.02 --> 7370.40] I was wondering +[7370.40 --> 7370.88] if they said +[7370.88 --> 7371.68] it was a blue switch +[7371.68 --> 7372.38] if they could have +[7372.38 --> 7373.78] legal problems, +[7373.84 --> 7374.26] but I don't think +[7374.26 --> 7375.64] Cherry trademarked +[7375.64 --> 7376.78] the idea of a blue switch. +[7376.86 --> 7377.06] No, +[7377.12 --> 7377.64] and they didn't +[7377.64 --> 7380.08] and the other brands +[7380.08 --> 7381.04] that are looking +[7381.04 --> 7381.94] at using KL switches +[7381.94 --> 7383.02] are planning to maintain +[7383.02 --> 7383.60] the color scheme. +[7383.94 --> 7384.04] Oh, +[7384.10 --> 7384.34] God. +[7384.98 --> 7385.34] So, +[7385.72 --> 7386.46] it'll be, +[7386.52 --> 7388.74] it'll be blue switch +[7388.76 --> 7390.92] versus Cherry MX blue switch. +[7391.56 --> 7391.96] Yeah. +[7392.48 --> 7393.08] And I think +[7393.08 --> 7394.60] there'll be some people, +[7394.70 --> 7394.92] okay, +[7395.06 --> 7395.30] but here, +[7395.36 --> 7395.84] hold on a second. +[7395.98 --> 7396.90] There'll be some people +[7396.90 --> 7397.72] who are deceived. +[7398.08 --> 7398.98] My browser froze. +[7399.06 --> 7400.08] But I will make the argument +[7400.08 --> 7401.04] that those people +[7401.04 --> 7401.50] were going to be +[7401.50 --> 7402.72] the value shoppers +[7402.72 --> 7403.52] who weren't going to pay +[7403.52 --> 7404.42] the extra $10 or $50. +[7404.42 --> 7405.14] At first, +[7405.24 --> 7405.94] I would have probably +[7405.94 --> 7406.90] been deceived over this. +[7407.38 --> 7407.88] You think so? +[7407.88 --> 7408.44] I wouldn't have looked +[7408.44 --> 7409.06] at it long enough. +[7410.30 --> 7410.90] But then, +[7411.04 --> 7411.72] in that case, +[7412.00 --> 7412.72] are they doing +[7412.72 --> 7413.60] the internet a favor +[7413.60 --> 7414.66] by making such +[7414.66 --> 7416.12] big fanfare +[7416.12 --> 7416.80] out of the fact +[7416.80 --> 7417.22] that now it's +[7417.22 --> 7417.78] a Razer switch? +[7418.32 --> 7418.50] Well, +[7418.56 --> 7418.92] it's right. +[7419.30 --> 7419.80] It's Razer. +[7420.34 --> 7420.76] I know. +[7420.92 --> 7421.78] Everything they do +[7421.78 --> 7422.24] is going to be +[7422.24 --> 7422.54] a Razer switch. +[7422.54 --> 7423.06] But then, +[7423.06 --> 7423.22] is that something that they've +[7423.22 --> 7424.22] done to redeem themselves? +[7424.44 --> 7425.28] It might help, +[7425.48 --> 7426.12] to be completely honest. +[7426.12 --> 7426.18] It's like, +[7426.18 --> 7427.24] do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, +[7427.24 --> 7427.28] do, do, do, do, do, do, +[7427.28 --> 7428.56] we're not using Cherry switches. +[7428.56 --> 7429.84] At least they're saying that then. +[7430.90 --> 7431.12] Yeah, +[7431.28 --> 7431.46] yeah, +[7431.50 --> 7431.78] definitely. +[7432.02 --> 7432.18] Like, +[7432.24 --> 7432.46] it's, +[7432.46 --> 7433.74] and that's going to help a lot +[7433.74 --> 7434.86] because at least +[7434.86 --> 7436.08] that would maybe make, +[7436.24 --> 7436.50] honestly, +[7436.56 --> 7437.34] I wouldn't have looked at it +[7437.34 --> 7437.72] that closely, +[7437.86 --> 7438.94] but it maybe might have +[7438.94 --> 7439.84] helped me look at it +[7439.84 --> 7440.34] more closely. +[7440.46 --> 7440.90] Because you've looked +[7440.90 --> 7441.50] into it now, +[7441.70 --> 7442.28] and now you know. +[7442.30 --> 7442.96] Well, I've looked into it now +[7442.96 --> 7443.74] because you want me +[7443.74 --> 7444.16] to help you with the video. +[7444.16 --> 7445.04] Can you imagine +[7445.04 --> 7446.30] if they'd done +[7446.30 --> 7447.42] Black, +[7447.54 --> 7447.96] okay, +[7448.34 --> 7449.46] Black Widow 2014, +[7449.86 --> 7451.10] no packaging change, +[7451.78 --> 7452.66] with blue switches? +[7454.96 --> 7455.32] Yeah. +[7455.66 --> 7456.44] But not calling them +[7456.44 --> 7457.32] Cherry MX blue switches +[7457.32 --> 7458.12] and making them Kales. +[7458.62 --> 7459.40] I already said, +[7459.48 --> 7460.00] that would have been +[7460.00 --> 7460.40] That would have been +[7460.40 --> 7460.78] ridiculous. +[7461.34 --> 7461.62] Luckily, +[7461.76 --> 7462.08] it's green, +[7462.08 --> 7462.68] which is slightly +[7462.68 --> 7463.28] less common. +[7463.78 --> 7464.02] Yeah. +[7464.84 --> 7466.04] But it's still a problem +[7466.04 --> 7467.10] because a lot of people +[7467.10 --> 7468.16] still know what greens are. +[7468.52 --> 7469.44] We've done coverage +[7469.44 --> 7469.98] on greens. +[7470.10 --> 7470.78] It's not like +[7470.78 --> 7472.14] Kalears or something else +[7472.14 --> 7473.14] which is even less, +[7473.74 --> 7474.98] less common. +[7475.42 --> 7476.32] It's still a, +[7476.72 --> 7477.64] it's hard to get. +[7478.18 --> 7479.00] But people do make +[7479.00 --> 7479.80] keyboards with green +[7479.80 --> 7480.40] switches in them. +[7480.92 --> 7482.04] I wish they picked +[7482.04 --> 7482.54] a different color. +[7484.16 --> 7485.30] It's still deceptive +[7485.30 --> 7485.76] calling it, +[7486.00 --> 7486.16] like, +[7486.44 --> 7487.44] it looks identical. +[7489.08 --> 7490.08] And honestly, +[7490.28 --> 7491.34] if you were untrained, +[7491.34 --> 7491.88] and maybe you didn't +[7491.88 --> 7492.54] really know Cherry +[7492.54 --> 7493.00] very well, +[7493.16 --> 7493.98] if you saw this +[7493.98 --> 7495.02] standard mechanical switch, +[7495.18 --> 7495.94] what is telling you +[7495.94 --> 7496.92] that that's a Cherry switch? +[7497.98 --> 7498.28] Maybe, +[7498.36 --> 7499.02] maybe you're thinking +[7499.02 --> 7499.82] it's some other brand. +[7500.44 --> 7501.06] In fact, +[7501.10 --> 7501.80] I think that is +[7501.80 --> 7502.36] a different brand. +[7502.50 --> 7502.66] They, +[7502.72 --> 7503.72] they use standard +[7503.72 --> 7505.00] a little bit interchangeably. +[7505.38 --> 7505.66] Yeah. +[7506.02 --> 7506.68] Which is causing +[7506.68 --> 7507.26] another problem. +[7507.32 --> 7507.86] Cherry MX, +[7507.96 --> 7508.36] so guys, +[7508.44 --> 7509.02] if you go to +[7509.02 --> 7510.26] the comparison chart +[7510.26 --> 7511.88] between Razer +[7511.88 --> 7512.80] mechanical switches +[7512.80 --> 7514.12] and standard mechanical switches, +[7514.12 --> 7515.72] this actuation point +[7515.72 --> 7517.02] is compared to Cherry +[7517.02 --> 7518.84] with the manufacturing tolerances, +[7519.30 --> 7520.50] this versus Reset +[7520.50 --> 7521.58] is compared to Cherry, +[7521.80 --> 7522.74] and this appears +[7522.74 --> 7523.50] to be being compared +[7523.50 --> 7524.18] to Topers, +[7524.54 --> 7525.58] because Cherry +[7525.58 --> 7526.82] has a 50 million +[7526.82 --> 7527.70] Yeah, +[7528.24 --> 7529.00] I didn't even notice that. +[7529.00 --> 7529.60] Keystroke lifespan +[7529.60 --> 7531.10] on their MX series. +[7531.84 --> 7532.10] So, +[7532.46 --> 7532.72] like, +[7532.76 --> 7533.84] they seem to be kind of, +[7534.52 --> 7535.06] I don't know, +[7535.54 --> 7535.88] using, +[7536.06 --> 7536.20] oh, +[7536.32 --> 7536.48] sorry, +[7536.54 --> 7537.44] I'm not screen sharing anymore. +[7537.88 --> 7538.70] They seem to be kind of +[7538.70 --> 7539.32] using the numbers +[7539.32 --> 7540.28] that are convenient here +[7540.28 --> 7540.72] a little bit. +[7540.96 --> 7542.28] I'm not super pleased +[7542.28 --> 7542.78] with that. +[7543.96 --> 7544.80] But there you go. +[7545.82 --> 7546.28] All right. +[7546.90 --> 7548.10] I think people have been +[7548.10 --> 7548.86] sitting here +[7548.86 --> 7550.54] listening to us argue, +[7551.16 --> 7552.50] not because they want to, +[7552.60 --> 7553.84] but because they want to know +[7553.84 --> 7555.48] who won the big giveaway. +[7555.90 --> 7556.20] So, +[7556.34 --> 7557.60] there's one of the draws +[7557.60 --> 7558.42] that unfortunately +[7558.42 --> 7560.04] we couldn't really do live +[7560.04 --> 7560.94] because of the +[7560.94 --> 7563.42] phenomenally tedious nature +[7563.42 --> 7564.70] of determining the winner +[7564.70 --> 7565.76] of the person +[7565.76 --> 7566.94] who posted the comment +[7566.94 --> 7568.00] for the crate computer. +[7568.22 --> 7568.30] Like, +[7568.40 --> 7568.66] oh, +[7568.74 --> 7568.96] man. +[7569.34 --> 7569.54] So, +[7569.62 --> 7570.52] what we had to do +[7570.52 --> 7571.46] was we had to figure out +[7571.46 --> 7572.84] how many comments per page +[7572.84 --> 7574.08] and because YouTube +[7574.08 --> 7576.18] no longer allows us +[7576.18 --> 7577.82] to just key in a page number +[7577.82 --> 7579.82] to go to a page of comments, +[7580.08 --> 7581.60] we actually had to click +[7581.60 --> 7582.50] show more +[7582.50 --> 7583.86] to get to the right page. +[7583.90 --> 7584.00] So, +[7584.06 --> 7584.54] we had to determine +[7584.54 --> 7585.34] how many per page, +[7585.42 --> 7586.48] how many comments there were, +[7586.68 --> 7587.42] then we had to key +[7587.42 --> 7588.18] the number of pages +[7588.18 --> 7589.14] into random.org, +[7589.44 --> 7590.70] click it that many times +[7590.70 --> 7591.66] to get to that page +[7591.66 --> 7592.58] and then do another +[7592.58 --> 7593.78] random.org entry +[7593.78 --> 7594.44] between them +[7594.44 --> 7596.84] to find the winning entry. +[7597.66 --> 7598.82] And you guys wonder, +[7598.98 --> 7599.14] like, +[7599.18 --> 7600.34] I had people messaging me +[7600.34 --> 7601.46] on the 28th. +[7601.46 --> 7601.72] Wait, +[7601.78 --> 7602.20] wasn't it, +[7602.20 --> 7602.92] wasn't it done yet? +[7602.96 --> 7603.94] Have you announced the winner yet? +[7604.24 --> 7604.68] I'm like, +[7605.06 --> 7605.32] no. +[7605.54 --> 7605.90] No. +[7606.70 --> 7607.10] No, +[7607.18 --> 7608.12] I have not. +[7609.34 --> 7610.62] Thank you for asking. +[7611.12 --> 7611.52] In fact, +[7611.58 --> 7612.56] the fact that we got this done +[7612.56 --> 7613.04] so quickly +[7613.04 --> 7613.92] is sort of magical. +[7614.60 --> 7614.92] All

in person. +[7922.60 --> 7922.76] Yeah, +[7922.84 --> 7923.60] are you happy now? +[7923.68 --> 7923.80] Yeah. +[7923.96 --> 7924.44] So the guys +[7924.44 --> 7924.80] that I know +[7924.80 --> 7925.40] in person, +[7925.78 --> 7926.28] none of them +[7926.28 --> 7926.78] shared it +[7926.78 --> 7927.84] because I think +[7927.84 --> 7928.76] they were mad at me. +[7928.76 --> 7930.84] because everyone +[7930.84 --> 7931.72] and their dog +[7931.72 --> 7932.90] was messaging them +[7932.90 --> 7933.56] constantly, +[7934.20 --> 7935.08] asking them to share +[7935.08 --> 7935.56] this thing. +[7935.94 --> 7936.72] So I think, +[7937.12 --> 7937.38] oh, +[7937.48 --> 7937.90] who was it? +[7937.90 --> 7938.90] People were messaging me. +[7939.10 --> 7940.40] Someone favorited +[7940.40 --> 7941.48] the person's tweet +[7941.48 --> 7942.86] or something, +[7943.02 --> 7943.72] and I was like, +[7943.88 --> 7944.12] yeah, +[7944.20 --> 7944.68] you're going to have +[7944.68 --> 7945.18] to tell him that +[7945.18 --> 7945.66] he's going to have +[7945.66 --> 7946.36] to retweet it, +[7946.36 --> 7947.12] and then they just +[7947.12 --> 7947.40] didn't. +[7947.40 --> 7949.40] So I think they were +[7949.40 --> 7950.82] super butthurt at me +[7950.82 --> 7952.08] for running the contest +[7952.08 --> 7952.44] that way. +[7952.52 --> 7953.26] So I think next time

7960.56] I'll just be like, +[7960.60 --> 7960.72] look, +[7960.78 --> 7961.70] these guys don't count. +[7962.38 --> 7962.54] Like, +[7962.60 --> 7963.78] go find someone new. +[7963.92 --> 7964.68] And the people +[7964.68 --> 7965.70] that got creative +[7965.70 --> 7966.22] about it +[7966.22 --> 7966.82] and, +[7966.94 --> 7967.16] like, +[7967.28 --> 7967.60] you know, +[7967.68 --> 7969.36] found pro gamers +[7969.36 --> 7970.06] to do it +[7970.06 --> 7970.88] or whatever else, +[7970.88 --> 7972.80] they got entries +[7972.80 --> 7973.74] and had a chance +[7973.74 --> 7973.96] to win. +[7974.00 --> 7974.70] So congratulations +[7974.70 --> 7975.84] to the winners again +[7975.84 --> 7976.64] and I think we're +[7976.64 --> 7977.20] done with the show, +[7977.30 --> 7977.44] everyone. +[7977.52 --> 7977.98] That was a really +[7977.98 --> 7978.52] long show. +[7978.60 --> 7979.14] Holy crap. +[7979.62 --> 7980.24] Thanks for watching, +[7980.34 --> 7980.52] everyone. diff

The weekly show where we talk about all kinds of things to do with My Little Pony, the latest furry trends, and of course whatever's on sale at Hot Topic. +[13.28 --> 18.64] So first up we've got, as far as Hot Topics are concerned, AMD...oh this is a tech show... +[18.64 --> 19.52] Oh crap! +[19.52 --> 27.60] Yeah, AMD Mantle! The Battlefield 4 patch is here! But don't worry too much about it because there's no driver yet! +[27.60 --> 28.16] Nope! +[28.16 --> 34.56] However, it should be noted, there's an email in my inbox. I will not confirm that I have read the email. +[34.56 --> 39.28] But what I will say is that it's from the same PR firm that AMD uses. +[39.28 --> 41.68] So you've read at least the...from like... +[41.68 --> 42.56] I know who it's from. +[42.56 --> 43.44] Have you read the subject line? +[43.44 --> 45.28] No, I haven't read the subject. +[45.28 --> 50.56] But I will say that that email was probably promising so I don't think we'll be waiting that much longer. +[50.56 --> 53.60] Our next headline, this is kind of awesome, +[53.60 --> 60.00] backblaze is creating sensationalist viral publicity for themselves again. There was actually an +[60.00 --> 67.60] excellent, excellent article done up by TweakTown about how flawed their testing methodology was +[67.60 --> 72.00] when they basically came out and said like Seagate hard drives are garbage. So we'll be going through +[72.00 --> 75.12] that. Huge props to TweakTown for that article. +[75.12 --> 80.56] South Korea has just been like nope, no bloatware on mobile phones. Completely banned, +[80.56 --> 85.68] which is super nice. There's a few things like Wi-Fi connectivity is allowed to be hidden, +[85.68 --> 91.36] but it's like come on, what are you trying to do? It's like bloatware is now removable, +[91.36 --> 98.72] which is nice. Source 2 engine leak and possibly a game leak that ends in 3, although we'll get into +[98.72 --> 110.72] that more later. Yes, we will. +[121.36 --> 130.56] This week's show is brought to you guys by Hotspot Shield, the fast, easy way to set up a VPN. +[130.56 --> 138.00] Their elite service is very reasonably priced and you can get a 20% off coupon by using offer code +[138.00 --> 146.16] LINUS. You can sign up at bit.ly slash HSShare. Big thanks to them for making the show possible. +[146.16 --> 153.76] So without further ado, let's jump right into our first topic. AMD Mantle. Oh, you didn't want to +[153.76 --> 159.92] do that one first? No, I said boom. Yeah, boom. AMD Mantle. So there's been a whole bunch of news over +[159.92 --> 166.72] the last little while. It's finally coming. The Battlefield 4 driver is finally actually dropped. +[166.72 --> 172.88] Like, or did I say driver? I'm sorry. Patch. The Battlefield 4 patch, that's Freudian slip, is finally here. +[172.88 --> 176.72] You can actually install it, although there won't be any point doing that unless you're running an +[176.72 --> 181.28] AMD graphics card that's based on the GCN architecture. Not that there would be a point +[181.28 --> 185.44] for you if you did have one of those graphics cards anyway, because you could preload it. You +[185.44 --> 194.64] could preload it and be ready to rock. But we're finally getting a ton more data and here it is. So +[194.64 --> 198.16] while you can't install the driver yet, we have reason to believe that you'll be able to get access to +[198.16 --> 204.72] it very, very soon. And this was the thing that I thought was most interesting out of all the +[204.72 --> 212.40] information that's out there right now. So AMD has released a little bit of information about +[212.40 --> 217.92] sort of what kind of performance improvements folks can expect to see using Mantle. And I think +[217.92 --> 225.68] many people were expecting their graphics card to sprout wings and fly. So they were expecting to take +[225.68 --> 235.04] like an R9 290X and you know, have that go, have that all of a sudden be, you know, deep into the double +[235.04 --> 244.16] digits percentages faster. When that's not necessarily the case, what Mantle will do is it will alleviate +[244.16 --> 249.84] CPU bottlenecking. So if you were in a situation where, I think one of the examples they give here, +[249.84 --> 259.44] yeah, is a multi, or is a 64 player multiplayer game. So there's a 7970 and an FX8350 where previously +[259.44 --> 266.56] DirectX might not have allowed the CPU to fully leverage all those cores. Remember that's an 8 core CPU? +[266.56 --> 272.32] And you might have been CPU limited, even that 7970, which is a reasonably powerful graphics card. +[272.32 --> 277.28] Well now with Mantle, they're saying you can expect maybe even a 25% performance improvement +[277.28 --> 284.56] by allowing your CPU to become unfettered. Now I've seen, I've seen reports of particularly with +[284.56 --> 289.84] very high-end graphics cards, the improvements being on the lower side. I've seen reports of with +[289.84 --> 294.00] high-end graphics card, the improvements being, you know, very exceptional. But I think it's really +[294.00 --> 298.64] going to depend on what type of level you're playing, what type of scenario you're doing. +[299.44 --> 303.68] And it's also going to depend on what the actual finished product looks like, because I haven't seen +[303.68 --> 308.56] anything super official yet. This is mostly like leaked stuff here and there. +[308.56 --> 312.56] A big part is going to be, like you said, levels, uh, area, what's going on, are you playing single +[312.56 --> 317.12] player, are you playing a 64 player configuration, all that kind of stuff, and the exact configuration +[317.12 --> 320.88] of your machine. Do you have something that's underpowered in some area? Do you have something +[320.88 --> 325.52] that's massively overpowered in another area? So it's going to come down to like the the perfect storm +[325.52 --> 329.04] of all the different things happening to exactly how much performance you're going to gain out of it. +[329.04 --> 332.96] You know what's funny? I had it echoing. I had my Twitch stream going. +[334.24 --> 335.12] Every week! +[335.12 --> 336.80] It's not every week! +[336.80 --> 337.44] Every week! +[338.80 --> 340.80] And, and, and barefoot's better. +[342.72 --> 343.84] What, what do people know? +[347.12 --> 347.76] Whatever, man. +[347.76 --> 348.56] Barefoot's better, man. +[348.56 --> 352.56] Anyway, so what we'd like to, I guess, you know what, I'd love to do a Twitter blitz for this. +[352.56 --> 357.92] What do you guys want to see us compare? Because we're in one of those privileged positions where we +[357.92 --> 363.12] have access to all the hardware, and I'm going to give you guys three options. So option number one +[363.68 --> 372.48] is high-end CPUs, high-end graphics cards take another run at Battlefield 4, except with AMD we +[372.48 --> 379.44] run Mantle, with Nvidia we run DirectX, and see how things fall. Or would you rather, rather than +[379.44 --> 386.00] comparing high-end graphics cards with high-end CPUs, would you rather we have a look at the impact of +[386.00 --> 392.88] Mantle on low-end CPUs, and we instead take one high-end graphics card, let's say a Radeon R9 290, +[392.88 --> 399.44] or something like that, and we take a range of different CPUs? Or, would you rather, actually, +[399.44 --> 403.36] that was pretty much all I had. What would you rather we do? Because we're not going to be able +[403.36 --> 410.00] to do everything. I think AMD's promised me I'll have 24 hours before a public driver is released, +[410.00 --> 415.60] you know, to run numbers. So let's say, do you guys want us to focus on GPU performance with a single +[415.60 --> 421.36] high-end CPU, or CPU performance with a single high-end GPU? Are we taking a tweak from this, +[421.36 --> 426.48] or are we straw-pulling it? We're tweeting. Okay. Yeah, so I was just making sure. Yeah, go ahead and just +[426.48 --> 432.88] just tweet us with what you would prefer to see. This is exciting. Oh, actually there was one other +[432.88 --> 437.44] bit of Mantle news. So, I mean, we knew this was coming. It's not really Mantle, but it's the latest, +[437.44 --> 444.08] the latest driver from AMD that includes OpenCL 2.0 support, HSA support for Kaveri APUs. They also +[444.08 --> 450.08] have some pretty badass spreadsheet support. Yeah, so LibreOffice, this was posted on the forum by +[451.84 --> 460.88] the SLS AMG. The notification, LibreOffice is now supporting Mantle. What? So Mantle, as well as +[460.88 --> 466.48] OpenCL and HSA are going to be a huge emphasis for them when you're doing things. And actually, +[466.48 --> 473.44] AMD had some interesting use cases for this. So one example was buying and selling stocks +[474.40 --> 479.76] within very tight time frames. So when you have a live feed of data that you need your spreadsheet to +[479.76 --> 487.04] calculate and spit out new quotes as quickly as possible, they were showing HSA on a Kaveri APU +[487.04 --> 493.44] versus an Intel quad core processor and how much faster it could update. So how much more granular +[493.44 --> 498.72] the data you could get was. And it was actually very impressive. And so while most people will give +[498.72 --> 504.88] exactly this many cares about LibreOffice's ability to calculate spreadsheets slightly faster, +[504.88 --> 510.72] there are people out there for whom this will be extremely important. So we can't just gloss over it. +[510.72 --> 517.84] It's just all of all of Twitch chat is just like, what? What? It matters. It might not matter to you. +[518.72 --> 526.16] What? But it matters. How does this make my game run faster? All right, let's move on to our next topic. +[526.16 --> 531.28] Uh, Valve's in-home streaming. I don't know if you guys saw the video we did on it already or not. +[531.28 --> 536.08] Um, I thought it was one of the best videos we've ever done. I worked extremely hard on it. Um, +[536.08 --> 540.40] actually like my legs are tired because the thing about in-home streaming is you have to have +[541.12 --> 547.12] mirrored configurations of whatever it is you're doing in both places. So in this house that ended +[547.12 --> 552.96] up being on two separate floors for the sake of what I thought was going to be improved convenience +[553.52 --> 558.24] and not having to haul things in one place and then run new network cables and stuff. It ended up +[558.24 --> 563.20] being a lot of running back and forth up and down the stairs, but it was a lot of, it was a lot of fun +[563.20 --> 569.44] to do and I want you guys to check it out. And you guys aren't the only ones that are going to be +[569.44 --> 575.04] checking it out. This was extremely exciting. This is the first time I have ever gotten any attention +[575.04 --> 580.88] from Valve in any way whatsoever, but on steamcommunity.com in the home streaming group, +[580.88 --> 585.60] which you guys have to join if you want to have the home streaming beta enabled for you, +[585.60 --> 593.12] I was actually featured on their announcements tab. There's also a, uh, uh, forum discussion +[593.12 --> 598.56] thing going on about it too. Yeah. Well, 131 comments there. So I thought that was pretty much +[598.56 --> 602.80] the coolest thing ever. It felt like getting a gold star of approval from Gabe and himself. +[602.80 --> 608.08] It wasn't. I know, but it felt like it. At least they know who we are. At least someone there. +[608.08 --> 614.64] Someone at Valve knows that we exist. Is aware of our existence. And anyway, it's a great video. +[614.64 --> 619.04] I hope you guys enjoy it. It was, uh, I realized there was one thing that I actually kind of left +[619.04 --> 625.36] out from the video and that was how good is the gaming experience other than where it's like +[625.36 --> 631.68] fundamentally broken, like on Ifinity and 4k. I actually didn't talk about it. So that was a bit +[631.68 --> 638.08] of a glaring omission. It's actually very good. There is noticeably more what feels like jitter. Um, +[638.08 --> 644.80] and there is, it seems like sometimes tearing is a little bit more noticeable, but beyond that, +[644.80 --> 647.92] I mean, latency wise, when you're running on a wired connection, how'd it feel for you? +[647.92 --> 653.36] It was absolutely really good. Um, the only time with what configurations people expect to work +[653.36 --> 656.32] that it was kind of weird was when we had that really low powered system. Did you have that in +[656.32 --> 662.40] the video? Um, I did. And so do you mean the one where we were only getting 720p, 30 fps on the, +[662.40 --> 668.96] the Sapphire machine, right? Yeah. So it's not as simple as does the machine have enough horsepower +[668.96 --> 675.04] to decode an H264 stream. That's what I think a lot of people thought. And it's not quite like +[675.04 --> 680.48] that. It has to be able to do that while managing that network traffic, while sending commands the +[680.48 --> 687.68] other way. And then it seems to just need some extra. Um, so a dual core E450 APU, that's a very low +[687.68 --> 694.08] power older APU was not enough for 1080p streaming, but something like an ultra book, even a dual core, +[694.08 --> 700.00] core i5 or core i7 ultra book was able to handle 1080p just fine. The only issue is that most of them +[700.00 --> 706.40] don't have ethernet on board. So I actually just picked up a couple more of these USB to ethernet +[706.40 --> 711.52] adapters. I'm going to be doing a, um, um, a great tech under a hundred dollars episode again, +[711.52 --> 715.28] and I'm going to include this as well as a couple other really cool things that I've been using lately. +[715.28 --> 721.28] Well, the problem is that I had never owned one before. And so I'd always kind of made do without +[721.28 --> 728.40] it. And then I bought one and all of a sudden it was like, I use it during WAN show. I used a netbook +[728.40 --> 733.60] to make a PFSense router for my house. So now all of a sudden it's tied up there and I'm like, Oh crap. +[735.12 --> 739.84] Okay. Yeah. More required. One for the bag, one for the WAN show room, and I'll probably be buying +[739.84 --> 745.60] more of them. Oh, and this one, this one right here, this, uh, pluggable USB two ethernet adapter +[745.60 --> 751.12] is gigabits. So 450 megabit per second max, obviously, because it's USB two, but it's also +[751.12 --> 758.64] rumored to be compatible with shield. So stay tuned guys. You could be getting a limelight versus shield +[758.64 --> 765.60] versus valve in home streaming wired versus wireless latency roundup over the next little bit. +[765.60 --> 769.92] That's going to be really fun. That's actually really cool. It's going to be a nightmare to do +[769.92 --> 772.96] all the benchmarking for it. Oh, it's going to be terrible. It's going to be just awful. +[774.00 --> 777.92] The worst thing ever, but I'm really looking forward to it. +[777.92 --> 783.44] Yay. I hate my life. Actually, I love my life. It's just sometimes I hate things about it. +[784.72 --> 789.60] So we should do the, yeah. Yeah. Let's do our Twitter blitz. Okay. So Nathan wants different CPUs +[789.60 --> 796.56] with the Kaveri APU for best CPU. I think you're a little confused, Nathan. An APU has a CPU on it. +[797.36 --> 803.28] I would say if possible, run all the CPUs, but at eight gig or 16 gig configurations, +[803.28 --> 808.88] that's not going to make much of a difference. Ludwig. Mantle is not in any way rumored to +[809.76 --> 818.00] optimize the use of more memory, more system memory. Okay. That's one option though, running a lot of CPUs +[818.00 --> 822.80] with maybe a couple different graphics cards. So like one high end, one like, you know, $100, +[822.80 --> 827.76] $150 card, like an entry level gaming. What I say we do, which this might be +[828.96 --> 831.68] aside from this, but I'm assuming that I'm doing all the benchmarking. +[831.68 --> 834.96] I can help. Actually, I could legit help with this because it's only one run +[835.60 --> 838.00] and we have two accounts with the F4. Yeah, but it's one bench. +[838.64 --> 844.56] We could have multiple benches. We have, um, we... So we could, we could do two different, +[844.56 --> 847.28] you could do one and I could do the other one essentially, because you could do... +[847.28 --> 853.36] CPUs with one GPU. And I can do the CPU with multiple GPUs. We could potentially do this. +[853.36 --> 855.92] Yeah. Yeah. Maybe we'll set aside sometime Monday. Sure. +[855.92 --> 861.44] Um, so Leonard wants mid-range AMD versus high-end Nvidia just to see what happens there. That'd be +[861.44 --> 863.36] interesting. That actually... We should do that. +[863.36 --> 868.40] Dietrich asks for GPU test first. Uh, Dexter wants to see the high-end stuff. Let's see the heavyweight +[868.40 --> 872.08] showdown. I mean, you know what? That's, I think what most people are going to be interested in too. +[872.08 --> 880.00] Um, Ashley wants the APU tests. Uh, one over option two. Okay. Socks and sandals is better than +[880.00 --> 885.68] barefoot. Thank you, Marius. The lone PC gamer do both options while rendering a video. I think +[885.68 --> 891.04] most people don't game while they're rendering videos in the background. Maybe I'm generalizing, +[892.24 --> 896.72] but I think in general it's correct. I've done that. Yeah, I've done it too. Back when I used to have +[896.72 --> 902.56] to edit. But I think most people usually don't. Running VMs while trying to edit things was always +[902.56 --> 912.80] really interesting. Anyways. All right. So take mid-range CPUs and the same cards. We're seeing +[912.80 --> 920.56] actually a fair bit of each. CPU modder asks for both CPU range. Comparing DirectX versus Mantle sounds +[920.56 --> 926.72] like apples and pears. Well, it's apple. Okay. This, this. Okay. I'm about to go on a rant here, +[926.72 --> 931.68] Levi. I'm sorry, but you've, you've, um, you've started this. You take the responsibility. +[932.40 --> 939.68] This is the problem with fanboyism. There is no such thing as an unfair comparison. +[939.68 --> 945.52] I'm gonna let that sink in. Yes, there is. Okay. There's such thing as a flawed experiment. +[945.52 --> 952.08] We're going to be covering back, please. Oh, okay. No, no, no. There's a flawed experiment. +[952.72 --> 958.24] Yeah. But a correctly, a correctly conducted experiment can't be unfair. Well, that means +[958.24 --> 963.12] you're removing the unfair. No, okay. Okay. Okay. Because there is unflared experiments, +[963.12 --> 968.24] but they are flawed. Okay. Hold on a second. Because, okay, okay, okay. Unfair? I mean like +[968.24 --> 975.36] emotionally unfair. Like it's not, it's not fair to benchmark AMD versus Nvidia and Tomb Raider because +[975.36 --> 982.24] the 780 Ti is bugged in Tomb Raider. That's not unfair. That's just, it doesn't perform well. +[982.24 --> 988.48] Sorry. That's not unfair. It's a perfectly good experiment. It's just that one of the things +[988.48 --> 994.56] failed and didn't do well. That's all. And an experiment is designed to reveal these things. +[994.56 --> 1001.60] So if you were to say it's unfair to compare Nvidia running in DirectX mode in a particular game that +[1001.60 --> 1008.16] supports Mantle versus AMD running Mantle, that's not unfair. That's a feature that they don't have. +[1010.16 --> 1015.44] That's it. That's all there is to it. If this one performs better, but at reduced image quality, +[1015.44 --> 1019.92] well now we've introduced other variables and we have to talk about that. But all other things being +[1019.92 --> 1026.32] the same, if this one runs like this and it has this extra thing and this one doesn't, that's it. +[1026.32 --> 1031.60] That's all there is to it. I think there can be unfairs. And I think you just said one. You could have +[1031.60 --> 1036.24] different image qualities. There could be something. It's still an experiment. I really, okay. From talking to +[1036.88 --> 1043.76] Johan Andersen back at Nvidia's event, and this was at Nvidia's event, he did not expect there to be any +[1043.76 --> 1048.08] image quality difference between Mantle and DirectX. Well, this is, I'm not, I'm not saying there is. +[1048.08 --> 1054.24] I'm saying not, not, I meant like if you go in and go from very high to medium. That's unfair. +[1054.24 --> 1057.44] Well, yeah, but that's not unfair. That's just stupid. Yeah, but it's still unfair. +[1057.44 --> 1061.28] That's just doing it wrong. Okay. That's stupid and unfair. Okay, but, okay, fine then. +[1061.28 --> 1068.64] There's no such thing as utilizing a product to its full potential being unfair. There you go. So you're, +[1068.64 --> 1073.36] you're putting both of them in the best possible configuration they can be in and testing them +[1073.36 --> 1077.76] against each other. That's completely, that's fine. That's exactly what we're going to do and that's +[1077.76 --> 1083.36] fine. Like back when AMD was having a lot of trouble with frame pacing, taking an Nvidia SLI +[1083.36 --> 1089.04] configuration versus named you Crossfire configuration and saying, this destroys this was fair. Yep. +[1089.68 --> 1094.96] I'm sorry, your driver isn't good or not as good as your competitor. That's not unfair. It's just fact. +[1094.96 --> 1099.84] Yeah. And until it's fixed, it's just fact and you have to deal with it. So I don't want to hear +[1099.84 --> 1106.40] about unfair. That's all. In that. Yes. Yeah. We're going to, we're going to let things be as good as +[1106.40 --> 1111.28] they possibly can, as long as it's not hurting the experience in some other way. We are not intervening +[1111.28 --> 1117.20] in some way that is nerfing one of them in some way to make it worse than the other. We are allowing +[1117.20 --> 1123.36] them both to go as hard as they can. For as long as they can. +[1125.36 --> 1130.96] All right. So this is interesting. I did not expect anyone to do this. It was fast. You know, +[1130.96 --> 1136.08] he announced the first version of it on the after party. Wait, this is V1? Yeah. Oh, +[1136.08 --> 1140.72] I changed your link. Oh, you changed my link? It didn't. Whatever your link was didn't work. +[1141.28 --> 1146.88] No, I thought that was a, no, I'm pretty sure I had a newer link. Whatever your link was, +[1146.88 --> 1152.88] there was no download button. It did not work. Is this newer? You can, if you delete. Oh no, +[1152.88 --> 1157.04] this has been, this has been updated. He says, he says we won. So yeah, like I'm pretty sure this is +[1157.04 --> 1162.16] newest one. If you delete that end part of the URL, you can find it. So I challenged someone last week +[1162.16 --> 1168.96] watching the stream. I said, look, it opened it. Anyone who wants to do it. What? Oh my goodness. +[1170.80 --> 1175.92] Okay. Are you sure you wanted to open that Linus? Yes. I want to open it. Jeez. Okay. +[1175.92 --> 1180.08] There's a lot of audio. So we asked for someone to make the game. Oh, hold on. I should just check +[1180.08 --> 1187.12] to make sure the levels are okay. Can't even hear it. That's interesting. It might be once you start +[1187.12 --> 1189.20] the game. Okay. Well, we'll make sure it's not too loud. +[1189.20 --> 1193.92] It's pretty loud. Oh yeah. It's pretty loud. Okay. We'll go ahead and turn that down a little bit. +[1193.92 --> 1200.32] There we go. All right. So I asked someone to make the game Candy Ass Candy Eaters. Uh, there is an avatar +[1200.32 --> 1206.96] that you can use here. So I'm going to play on a medium. So you get slick and you eat the candy and +[1206.96 --> 1212.40] you avoid the, uh, what are these again? Copyright symbols. Copyright symbols. Yeah. I think spaces jump. +[1212.40 --> 1217.92] So the idea is to collect as much candy as you can while violating as few copyrights as you can, +[1218.64 --> 1223.68] um, to avoid getting sued. So I can show you guys, oh, oh my God. I'll show you guys what +[1223.68 --> 1231.52] happens, what happened tonight. Oh, I got sued. I go to jail. So this was, this was something where I +[1231.52 --> 1236.32] actually, I paid the, uh, the hundred dollar bounty last night, uh, where I was like, okay, someone has to +[1236.32 --> 1241.60] make this game. This is going to be awesome. So this was because of King Games, um, trying to +[1241.60 --> 1248.24] trademark the word candy and among other things and go after anyone who had a game that was sort of +[1248.24 --> 1252.16] revolved around candy. So they're the makers of Candy Crush Saga. And I think they were going after +[1252.16 --> 1257.12] anyone using the word saga as well, which is like, really? There's a, there's a few words they were +[1257.12 --> 1263.20] doing. So people are making like candy, candy saga rush and like candy saga whatever, and all these +[1263.20 --> 1268.40] different things. It's kind of awesome. So yeah, um, we should have, we should definitely have a +[1268.40 --> 1273.52] thread somewhere on the forum where people post their high scores and it's actually pretty entertaining. +[1273.52 --> 1277.92] Yeah, it's, it's not a bad game. I've seen worse. It's like actually pretty all right. The just for fun +[1277.92 --> 1282.08] part is kind of insane. No, this I hadn't seen yet. I, I never play games just for fun. +[1284.48 --> 1289.04] There's the storm of candy. I didn't know you could double jump. +[1289.04 --> 1292.88] I actually don't do it. Ah, interesting. All the game mechanics. +[1292.88 --> 1297.84] Um, so you can double jump. You can, you can have a base under the period. +[1297.84 --> 1302.64] This is like, you can do slangers with an inch of gold and you have to go over the wall. +[1303.60 --> 1306.64] And then you fall into this ledge, but you can kind of jump out there. +[1308.08 --> 1312.88] But like, it gets difficult. Sometimes you break it. Okay, we didn't say the game was perfect. +[1312.88 --> 1319.12] Just to be clear. If you don't go too far out, you land on this little ledge and then you can jump back in. +[1320.00 --> 1324.80] So like, if you really need to dodge a thing and for some reason you can't go the other way, +[1324.80 --> 1329.04] you can like shovel out the wall. Someone should make a game, um, where you dodge coins. +[1331.36 --> 1335.28] And you're a dog. Awesome. No bounty for that. +[1335.28 --> 1337.12] Dodging coins. I'm already poor enough. +[1337.12 --> 1343.92] All right. If you win, you should get candy and it should be Candy Quest Saga Coin Dodger Edition. +[1343.92 --> 1352.64] So there's more to Oculus Rift than just gaming. This article is from Eurogamer.net +[1353.20 --> 1359.04] and is actually, um, talking about a use for it that would allow people to virtually swap bodies. +[1359.04 --> 1361.36] So, uh, you actually, I think did most of the... +[1361.36 --> 1367.76] Um, there's not even really honestly that much else to say. What happens is you, you, you sit in similar +[1367.76 --> 1373.44] proximity and then to be able to keep the immersion up, you have to kind of move in sync with the other +[1373.44 --> 1379.84] person. So a lot of them, you do not want to play this. Um, I put like flags all over that post. +[1379.84 --> 1383.60] Right there, right there, and right there. So that you wouldn't play the video. +[1383.60 --> 1384.32] All right, cool. +[1384.32 --> 1394.00] Anyways, don't watch the video, um, unless you are of appropriate age because there is, uh, nudity +[1394.00 --> 1400.56] within the video. Okay. Um, but essentially what you do is you, you have to move in sync. So, +[1400.56 --> 1405.52] because like if you, if you grab your leg or if you grab your arm like this for immersion, +[1405.52 --> 1410.72] if you're looking down to be able to see yourself, which is not yourself, it's the other person grab +[1410.72 --> 1414.48] their arm, they have to do at the same time. So all the movements are very sweeping and very +[1414.48 --> 1420.24] slow so you can do it at the same time. Um, a few things that break it from... stop it. +[1420.24 --> 1421.20] Hmm? I'm just gonna sit down. +[1421.20 --> 1426.80] Oh, I see. A few things that break it, um, as far as I can tell is like when they're going like this, +[1427.60 --> 1433.36] um, and stuff like that, like the guy is super hairy. So as he's going like this and the girl is +[1433.36 --> 1436.40] like not hairy at all, it's like well that wouldn't feel the same. +[1436.40 --> 1436.96] Right. +[1436.96 --> 1437.52] Right. +[1437.52 --> 1442.56] At all. And there's a few things that would break it in my mind. Um, but yeah, +[1442.56 --> 1445.44] it's interesting. They have a few different reasons for doing it. So, +[1447.12 --> 1452.56] where is it? Uh, by doing this, they can participate in a virtual body swap. +[1453.12 --> 1459.92] Um, they've entitled the machine, be another machine to be another. And its whole idea is +[1459.92 --> 1465.52] to explore empathy and the nature of the self. That sentence is hard to say. +[1465.52 --> 1468.56] The nature of the self. It sounds weird. +[1468.56 --> 1473.52] So there you go. If you could find a willing participant and set up a, uh, be someone else +[1473.52 --> 1475.12] machine, then... +[1475.12 --> 1477.12] It shouldn't theoretically be that hard. +[1477.12 --> 1477.92] No, I don't think so. +[1477.92 --> 1478.96] Because there's, uh... +[1478.96 --> 1479.60] We should do it. +[1479.60 --> 1484.88] You've seen the video now. +[1484.88 --> 1487.12] I got a lot more awkward. +[1487.12 --> 1490.88] Um, there's, there's cameras mounted and stuff so it can feed out. +[1490.88 --> 1495.68] Um, yeah, I don't know. It's really not that complicated, but it's interesting that people +[1495.68 --> 1500.64] are starting to do these ideas. Because I think Oculus is going to be used for a lot more things +[1500.64 --> 1501.20] than just gaming. +[1501.20 --> 1510.80] Yeah. All right, so Left 4 Dead 2 in Source 2 Engine leaks. So this is a PowerPoint presentation +[1511.44 --> 1516.24] that was leaked by a fairly credible source, Sea Boat. +[1516.24 --> 1518.64] Also known as Crazy Buttocks on a Train. +[1518.64 --> 1526.32] That sounds credible. Um, so, so leaked by Sea Boat. And, uh, there's some before and after shots +[1526.32 --> 1531.28] of what it might look like on Source Engine, which of course has been heavily modified since it was +[1531.28 --> 1535.92] originally released. They've updated it to the point where, I mean, really, you'll go back to the very +[1535.92 --> 1539.36] first Source games and they're hardly recognizable as the same engine. +[1539.36 --> 1547.36] Yeah. But, uh, the point is that it is obviously been upgraded significantly further than that. +[1547.36 --> 1551.60] So this would be, uh, this would be Source 2. And then there also seem to be some hints +[1552.56 --> 1555.36] that, uh, some, some game with, you know, +[1560.24 --> 1565.52] Half-Life 3 might be coming at some point. I mean, Valve is always so tight-lipped about this stuff. +[1565.52 --> 1571.36] Yeah, it's, okay, it seems really fishy to me. I have to call it so. It was not announced by Crazy +[1571.36 --> 1577.68] Buttocks on a Train. This was a different leak thing. And it's super simple. One thing about the +[1577.68 --> 1582.40] Sea Boat release was that, like, the PowerPoint looked actually pretty fleshed out. Yeah. There +[1582.40 --> 1585.92] was stuff on it. There was other slides that weren't shown. There was blah blah blah blah blah. +[1585.92 --> 1591.52] And it looked interesting and full. The other one's just like a directory screenshot. It's like, yup, +[1591.52 --> 1598.40] cool. So like anyone could have renamed files and just been like, cool, leaked. And then, like, +[1598.40 --> 1602.56] why is it actually called HL3? Yeah, I can't imagine they would do that. Seriously? Like, +[1602.56 --> 1610.56] they didn't code name it at all? Really? Yeah, I don't know. It doesn't seem super crazy legit to me. +[1611.12 --> 1615.52] So I don't know about that one. But the, the Sea Boat one seems quite a bit more legit. +[1615.52 --> 1624.24] This is interesting. Yeah, this is really interesting. So next up is Google has begun +[1624.88 --> 1631.28] ranking ISPs the same way that Netflix did. So Netflix released this report. When was that? That +[1631.28 --> 1635.60] was, what? Not that long ago. Six months ago, maybe? Yeah, really not that long ago. Not that long ago. +[1635.60 --> 1640.48] Where, remember, there's the speed your internet service provider advertises to you, +[1640.48 --> 1647.12] 50 megabit or 100 megabit or whatever. And then there's the speed that you're actually getting, +[1647.12 --> 1654.72] particularly for certain demanding services like on-demand video. And typically, it is not anywhere +[1654.72 --> 1661.04] near the level of what they're advertising. And I find, like, people like my mom are gonna have no +[1661.04 --> 1666.16] idea what that means. Yeah. Like, my internet is this fast. What does that allow me to do? +[1666.16 --> 1672.72] No idea. So now this translates that information into something that makes a lot more sense. +[1672.72 --> 1678.96] My, my internet is capable of running YouTube in HD verified mode. Oh, well, that's good. +[1678.96 --> 1686.16] So HD verified, in order to qualify, you have to be able to run a 720p stream 90% of the time without +[1686.16 --> 1691.52] any hitches. I mean, a lot of people complain about YouTube issues, but I mean, maybe that's what prompted +[1691.52 --> 1696.48] them to do this. Yeah. Because many of the issues, like, you'll go, okay, no, my internet's plenty +[1696.48 --> 1700.72] fast. I can download something from here and it's fast, but then I go to play YouTube videos and it's +[1700.72 --> 1707.68] crappy. That's probably your ISP dinking around, and it's actually less likely that that's Google +[1707.68 --> 1712.96] that is not able to deliver you the video in a timely manner. And it's a lot safer for them to do +[1712.96 --> 1718.32] that too, because especially with downloads, they have a lot of the time rated speeds. And YouTube videos, +[1718.32 --> 1722.40] you just see it lagging. You don't know why it doesn't show like it is downloading at this fast, +[1722.40 --> 1727.52] blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Um, one thing that I wish they did was I wish they had almost say +[1727.52 --> 1735.28] different tiers. Like, why is it just you are YouTube HD verified if you reach this level? +[1735.28 --> 1737.84] Why is it not like- Gold verified would be nice. +[1737.84 --> 1745.92] Gold verified. So it's like 1080p or higher, or like you are HD standard or sorry, YouTube standard or +[1745.92 --> 1750.64] YouTube HD. Like I wish there was different levels. This is really cool though. So it shows +[1750.64 --> 1756.80] the results in your area for who is HD verified, who is standard definition verified, and then who +[1756.80 --> 1763.28] is lower definition. So apparently Bell in my area is le rubbish. Um, I don't know anyone that has a +[1763.28 --> 1766.00] Bell connection. I don't know anyone that has a Bell connection. Like I gotta wonder if that's +[1766.00 --> 1771.36] mobile or something. Yeah, that's weird. I don't even know what's up with that. But, uh, there you go. +[1771.36 --> 1776.64] Very cool. Who are some of these people? And it breaks it down into, so, so what quality people +[1776.64 --> 1782.80] were watching at during those times. So this is how many streams overall. So the peak was around +[1782.80 --> 1788.40] 8 or 9 pm, which makes perfect sense. And then what percentage of them were able to run in HD. +[1788.40 --> 1793.36] That's really, really cool. So TELUS Low tier, for example, was only able to achieve +[1793.36 --> 1799.68] about 80% of its streams in HD. Cool. But then that's low tier or whatever. But then that's a +[1799.68 --> 1804.40] low tier service. It's interesting because that's a lot more translatable to someone who just wants +[1804.40 --> 1810.56] an area connection and isn't really that interested in anything. Normal people. Yeah. So time to, +[1810.56 --> 1815.68] time to rage face a little bit. Yeah. Do you want to, do you want to handle this? I don't see. +[1815.68 --> 1824.40] We can, we can tag team it. Sure. My almost problem with this is that it's the exact same thing. And we +[1824.40 --> 1830.72] will be saying the exact same things as we did last time because it's exactly the same. +[1831.52 --> 1834.48] But this time it's been scientifically torn down. +[1836.00 --> 1839.92] Categorically torn down. Analytically torn down. By TweakTown. +[1839.92 --> 1845.60] Categorically torn down. So this was a great little article from Paul Alcorn where he basically goes, +[1845.60 --> 1852.64] okay, Backblaze's thing that they released where they graphed hard drive reliability and failure +[1852.64 --> 1859.20] rates over time, um, showing Seagate to have an abysmally terrible failure rate, which I called out +[1859.20 --> 1863.92] at the time. I said, well, it looks like a lot of these results are being skewed by one batch of a +[1863.92 --> 1869.52] particular drive. And there were other problems with it than that. So he actually dug through Backblaze's +[1869.52 --> 1874.88] excellent blog and found a lot of the information that he needed to refute the claims that were being +[1874.88 --> 1880.96] made with respect to drive reliability, which was, which was really interesting. Um, so basically he +[1880.96 --> 1888.96] dug through and went, okay, this graph is interesting, but it can't possibly have a basis in reality. +[1888.96 --> 1897.36] Because even WD's annual failure rate of 3%, based on what I personally already know about the margin that +[1897.36 --> 1902.08] exists on a hard drive for a company like Western Digital would put them out of business. Yeah. +[1902.08 --> 1908.32] They wouldn't, they wouldn't exist if that was their actual failure rate in the field. So you have to +[1908.32 --> 1914.72] consider a number of things. So number one is these are consumer grade drives being used in an enterprise +[1914.72 --> 1920.32] environment. There was a lot of them that were ripped out of enclosures because something they found, +[1920.32 --> 1926.08] which is very true, is that a lot of times you can find cheaper drives in enclosures. One of the things is, +[1927.36 --> 1932.24] which exact drive is going to be in there and what bin it was and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But +[1932.24 --> 1937.76] they were mass purchasing to the point of having some of their employees banned from buying hard +[1937.76 --> 1942.56] drives from stores because they were buying so many. And this was during the, uh, the shortage. +[1942.56 --> 1946.96] Yeah. And then they were like putting out hit lists for people to go out and buy drives from different +[1946.96 --> 1951.28] stores for them and then giving them bounties for those drives. They were crowdsourcing drives. Like, +[1951.28 --> 1956.96] ridiculous. So they could get these external drives and then do what they call shucking, +[1956.96 --> 1961.68] which is just like corn taking all the outside off and then using this internal hard drive. +[1961.68 --> 1965.92] So they're using drives from wherever the heck because they're getting all these externals. +[1965.92 --> 1971.20] And who knows how they were transported. I mean, that's a big thing, guys. Let me tell you, +[1971.20 --> 1977.28] the failure rates for hard drives are affected in a significant way by the manner in which they are +[1977.28 --> 1982.96] shipped or delivered from wherever they're coming from to the customer. Yep. So, so yeah, +[1982.96 --> 1989.04] so sourcing was an issue. Um, the fact that the drives weren't all running in the same environment +[1989.04 --> 1995.52] at all, at all was a big issue. So different enclosures, uh, many of the failed drives were +[1995.52 --> 2000.40] running in an older style of enclosure that caused more vibration. Some of the drives were going to be +[2000.40 --> 2005.84] running near the center of enormous racks of drives where it was, I think they were observing temperatures up to, +[2005.84 --> 2011.20] what, 10 degrees hotter or something like this? It's like if you have an entire huge row of, +[2011.20 --> 2019.12] um, rack mount servers, like huge rows of them, the, in the middle of the row. So rack, rack, rack, +[2019.12 --> 2024.00] rack, rack, rack, rack, rack, rack, rack, rack, in the middle, five, the hottest. And at the top, +[2024.00 --> 2028.40] you'd find the hottest. So the middle top drives are going to be quite a bit hotter than the other ones. +[2028.40 --> 2034.88] Yeah. So the huge temperature ranges, which there have been reports that temperature doesn't affect hard +[2034.88 --> 2038.40] drive failure rates. From them. From... +[2038.40 --> 2047.28] Um, but the manufacturers all seem to be aligned on this. I mean, you look at guys like Seagate and WD, +[2047.28 --> 2053.60] they don't agree on much. But what they do agree on is that vibration is bad. And so that older +[2053.60 --> 2059.60] enclosure that Seagate's drives were running in was terrible. And they, they agree that heat is bad. +[2059.60 --> 2066.08] Hard drives have manufacturer suggested operating temperatures that you should stay within. +[2066.08 --> 2072.00] And then lower is better. Uh, according to the actual manufacturers that actually engineer this +[2072.00 --> 2078.00] stuff. So basically, once again, Backblaze has gotten everyone talking about them, um, +[2078.00 --> 2083.76] by making a sensationalist headline. And then they got TweakTown to have to talk about them some more and +[2083.76 --> 2088.64] generate even more publicity for them. And the funny thing is the TweakTown article isn't even, +[2088.64 --> 2092.96] like, hating on Backblaze because a lot of what they were doing... +[2092.96 --> 2094.80] Was to help customers. +[2094.80 --> 2095.76] Was well-intentioned. +[2095.76 --> 2097.44] Really cheap storage. +[2097.44 --> 2103.76] For their customers. It's like, okay. So, but then just like, please stop sensationalizing stuff. +[2104.48 --> 2106.08] You know, please. That's all. +[2106.08 --> 2109.20] And like throwing companies, other companies under the bus pretty hard. +[2109.20 --> 2115.04] Yeah. I mean, throwing someone like Seagate under the bus because like you wanted to make headlines +[2115.04 --> 2120.64] really feels like not a good, uh, not a very good, you know, partner thing to do. +[2120.64 --> 2121.36] It doesn't feel good. +[2121.36 --> 2122.72] It feels really icky. +[2124.24 --> 2128.40] Yeah. Um, there was, there was a, yeah, there was a bunch of stuff. We've talked about it all, +[2128.40 --> 2132.48] but like, I think they're on their third revision of BlackBase server. Um, another thing that bugs me +[2132.48 --> 2138.96] too is in the, in the more detailed charts, um, you can find like there was years of difference +[2138.96 --> 2140.48] between when drives were deployed too. +[2140.48 --> 2140.96] Yeah. +[2140.96 --> 2142.64] Which is a huge deal. +[2143.44 --> 2143.68] Yes. +[2143.68 --> 2144.48] Yeah. +[2144.48 --> 2150.48] I mean, to actually determine this scientifically, you would have to have a controlled environment. +[2150.48 --> 2154.56] You'd have to source all the drives from the same place. You would have to have them all +[2155.20 --> 2159.76] performing approximately the same work. I mean, that was another thing was, uh, that was the whole +[2159.76 --> 2165.04] enterprise versus consumer grade drives one where they had them doing completely different things. +[2165.04 --> 2172.08] I mean, that's ridiculous. I'll be the first to tell you guys an enterprise or server grade workload +[2172.08 --> 2177.84] will kill a consumer grade drive. Uh, did I tell you how many drives failed in my Windows Home Server, +[2177.84 --> 2178.80] my original one? +[2178.80 --> 2181.04] Didn't, weren't they just basically like candy? +[2181.04 --> 2186.16] They were basically like, I, I probably had anywhere between eight and a dozen drives fail +[2186.16 --> 2191.04] over the couple of years that I was running it. And the reason for that was because of the way that +[2191.04 --> 2197.28] Windows Home Server v1 worked, data was constantly being shuffled around and balanced between the +[2197.28 --> 2201.92] drives for redundancy because it didn't use RAID. So what happened was my boot +[2201.92 --> 2207.92] drives would die because the boot drive couldn't be manually removed from the drive pool. +[2207.92 --> 2211.44] So it had to handle running an OS and doing all that stuff. And then it had, +[2211.44 --> 2216.24] it had to handle having data sort of swapped back and forth on it all the time. And that thing would +[2216.24 --> 2220.96] thrash constantly. And I just said, they would just die, die, die, die, die, die. And it was a real pain +[2220.96 --> 2224.72] when they died. So I eventually replaced it with an Intel SSD, which is running to this day, +[2224.72 --> 2232.72] uh, because I mean, it's not a ton of writes. It's just a lot of random all over the place, +[2232.72 --> 2235.28] which will wear out a hard drive faster than it will an SSD. +[2235.28 --> 2236.08] Yeah. +[2239.36 --> 2240.88] Jumping to BWiFi? +[2240.88 --> 2250.24] No, actually, I wanted to go to Hawaii's post on the forum. So speaking of PC component failure rates, +[2250.24 --> 2255.92] these numbers may actually be slightly more credible because at least it's a wider sample +[2255.92 --> 2261.28] and is actual components that are being deployed into the field by a retailer. +[2261.28 --> 2262.88] There's still, there's still... +[2262.88 --> 2263.52] Problems. Yeah. +[2263.52 --> 2269.12] I know there are problems. The sample sizes vary anywhere from hundreds of units to thousands of +[2269.12 --> 2270.88] units. Um, the... +[2270.88 --> 2275.36] Who knows if someone bought a whole bunch and then put them in a weird configuration. +[2275.36 --> 2280.24] Uh, there, none of them will be in the same, like very few of them will be in the same cases, +[2280.24 --> 2281.28] in the same configurations. +[2281.28 --> 2281.68] Yep. +[2281.68 --> 2284.32] None of them are really gonna be at the same temperatures, but it's... +[2284.32 --> 2287.76] Letting end users use them is not a controlled environment. +[2287.76 --> 2291.04] But it's much wider, which almost helps it. +[2291.04 --> 2295.76] Yeah, that almost makes it more relevant to the average consumer who's looking to buy something. +[2295.76 --> 2297.20] So, there's lots... +[2297.20 --> 2302.64] Oh yeah, another thing to consider about this, guys, is that it does not account for failed +[2302.64 --> 2307.68] products that get returned to the manufacturer because they have no way of tracking that. +[2307.68 --> 2310.32] This is only ones that came back to the retailer. +[2310.32 --> 2315.76] So some, some manufacturers in particular have notices right inside their packaging that says, +[2315.76 --> 2318.96] Hey, yo, uh, go through us. Don't go back to your retailer. +[2318.96 --> 2322.08] And I'm not saying... They're not trying to hide anything from the retailers. +[2322.08 --> 2326.72] It's just that I think some of them feel like they want to be in charge of their own customer +[2326.72 --> 2331.04] service and do a great job of taking out... taking care of this customer that has a dead product. +[2331.04 --> 2333.60] And I think that's where the motivation comes from. +[2333.60 --> 2335.68] But there were just... There were some really interesting numbers. +[2335.68 --> 2338.72] Gigabyte did really well with respect to average failure rates. +[2338.72 --> 2340.56] Asus and Asrock did really well. +[2340.56 --> 2344.56] MSI didn't do very well, but it looks like it was skewed by one model. +[2344.56 --> 2349.68] That's cool because this breaks it out by manufacturer as well as by individual models where... +[2349.68 --> 2350.40] Which is really cool. +[2350.40 --> 2351.04] ...where it's relevant. +[2352.56 --> 2354.40] Or where it's, uh, where it's... +[2354.40 --> 2356.64] Where they had enough of them. That's what I was looking for. +[2356.64 --> 2357.92] Where they had a big enough sample size. +[2357.92 --> 2359.76] Were you surprised by anything in here? +[2361.04 --> 2361.36] Um... +[2363.92 --> 2366.24] Not really. I mean, I worked at a retailer for years. +[2366.24 --> 2367.84] Yeah, I know. That's why I was just wondering. +[2367.84 --> 2374.96] And it's... It's funny because, uh, there is so much talk from consumers about who makes +[2374.96 --> 2380.72] reliable graphics cards and who makes blah blah blah. You know what? There's like four factories +[2380.72 --> 2387.20] making all this stuff. And they are all have extremely advanced equipment and they're all +[2387.20 --> 2393.92] improving their QA processes all the time. And you can do the simple math, which is like, +[2393.92 --> 2401.52] I've seen accusations made that a manufacturer has huge RMA rates, half of them die. You can assume +[2401.52 --> 2408.32] that if that were the case, they would not exist. There have been products that were extremely bad. +[2408.88 --> 2415.44] And, you know, I'm not going to throw anyone under the bus here. Okay, I will. The Striker Extreme was a +[2415.44 --> 2422.88] terrible product. It was an awful motherboard. RMA rates above 25% for that board over the entirety of +[2422.88 --> 2430.08] its lifetime. There are lemons. There's higher than that in this doc. Yeah. So there's stuff like that. +[2430.08 --> 2437.68] But the thing that doesn't surprise me is that stuff happens. And the other thing too, this is +[2437.68 --> 2442.40] another flaw with this, is that it's only, I think, what, six months of data or a year of data or something +[2442.40 --> 2447.44] like that. Something like that. Yeah. So it's a limited time frame where one manufacturer can just +[2447.44 --> 2452.80] have a bad, a bad spell for a bit. And then that can make them look really bad on this report when +[2452.80 --> 2457.60] that's not necessarily the ongoing case. Although it does include some data from the previous year +[2457.60 --> 2462.16] in this report as well. So it was very interesting. Very interesting overall. This is, this is awesome. +[2462.72 --> 2473.36] OCZ petrol and octane SSD return rates in the 40 plus percent ranges. And a lot of talk occurred about +[2473.36 --> 2479.92] OCZ RMA rates. And what I would say at the time is guys, yeah, there are bad apples. Petrol was a terrible +[2479.92 --> 2485.52] drive. I've returned hundreds of them, uh, but without even selling them when I realized what was going on. +[2485.52 --> 2491.60] But something like vertex four and vertex three and vertex two before that. I ran those vertex fours for a really long time. +[2491.60 --> 2497.76] Yeah. And, and so did a lot of people. No, I mean for like test benching. Yeah. And I beat the crap out of +[2497.76 --> 2502.88] them when I was test benching. So like, yeah, pretty cool. So anyway, so there you go. You guys should +[2502.88 --> 2508.64] definitely check that out on the forum. Um, it's also posted on Linus Tech Tips Facebook, which I've +[2508.64 --> 2514.16] started becoming a lot more active on. So if you guys follow, uh, or like Linus Tech on Facebook, +[2514.16 --> 2518.24] then you'll see things that I will post there. Uh, it actually gets some exclusive content now. +[2518.24 --> 2524.00] Apparently there is a thread in PC gaming for candy ass, candy eater, high score bonanza. +[2524.00 --> 2526.64] Excellent. So I'm going to post that in the Twitch chat. +[2526.64 --> 2534.72] So people can find that fan tastic. I'm probably going to jump on there at some point because I +[2534.72 --> 2540.80] actually find it quite entertaining. Be wifi. This is an article from ours. Technica lets you steal your +[2540.80 --> 2546.00] neighbors bandwidth when they're not using it. But I think steel is a bit of, um, is a bit of a misnomer +[2546.00 --> 2553.92] here because what the video actually suggests is more of a wifi sharing concept. So I'm just going to turn +[2553.92 --> 2560.24] that down mostly. You know what? Let's not even watch the video because overall I'm kind of looking +[2560.24 --> 2566.08] at this going like, what are you high? Um, you can try and defend it if you want. +[2566.08 --> 2570.88] Um, I think it makes sense in certain regions. I think you saw that in my notes, which is actually +[2570.88 --> 2576.32] what they were targeting too. I don't think like where, where, where anywhere that I have ever lived. +[2576.32 --> 2582.64] Nope. So basically, except for dorms at university, but then they would have their own. +[2582.64 --> 2590.88] Yeah. Everyone would have their own login anyway. So the way that be wifi works is, is you, you basically +[2590.88 --> 2599.52] sign up and make your wifi hotspot part of a larger network that anyone else who is also signed up can +[2599.52 --> 2607.84] jump on and jump off at will as they move around even. So if you had a very, very dense city, for example, +[2607.84 --> 2614.24] and everyone was signed up, the idea is that you'd be able to move seamlessly around the city and have +[2614.24 --> 2620.00] wifi connectivity rather than relying on your mobile data everywhere. The problem that I see for this +[2620.00 --> 2628.64] is that even in a densely populated area, convincing people to use this? Apparently they have been. Um, +[2628.64 --> 2633.52] and that's because of their target audience too. They're not targeting us. They're targeting like, +[2633.52 --> 2638.72] um, like they said, emerging, emerging economies and places that have terrible internet. Like this +[2638.72 --> 2644.96] is where you cannot have a Skype call at all or where you cannot watch like YouTube pretty much +[2644.96 --> 2651.92] at all. Um, or very low quality of each of them and very intermittent of each of them. And the idea is +[2651.92 --> 2657.44] allowing you to actually use some internet services. This isn't really designed for people with like +[2657.44 --> 2664.32] Google fiber. This is not targeted that they're pushing it out in certain areas of South America. +[2664.32 --> 2669.20] I don't think they have any plans currently for pushing it out in areas in like North America and +[2669.20 --> 2672.24] stuff. This is targeted at a different audience. This is not targeted at you. +[2673.76 --> 2678.00] Yeah, but I mean just, okay, fine, fine. Okay. All of that aside from a sheer +[2678.88 --> 2682.72] liability perspective. Yes, there's that. Do you want other people using your internet connection? +[2682.72 --> 2687.04] There's that. But recently I don't see, okay, part of this, and I knew you're going to bring this up. +[2687.04 --> 2692.80] Part of this is I have no idea what the laws are there. So where they're pushing it out, +[2692.80 --> 2698.48] I have no idea how the laws come into play. The States at least, um, it was recently ruled that +[2698.48 --> 2703.44] your IP is not valid identity. Okay. So in the States, it wouldn't be a big deal. +[2703.44 --> 2711.36] Not just that though, forget IP being valid to identify you. Uh, it's not like, you know, let's, +[2711.36 --> 2716.16] let's, let's say, let's say someone was doing something illegal, downloading child porn on your +[2716.16 --> 2724.88] internet connection. Your ISP will know who that was. Like they will know that that came to your +[2724.88 --> 2730.64] connection. Forget, forget your IP and someone like if someone's actually working with your ISP to identify +[2730.64 --> 2738.56] someone doing illegal things, it can come back at you. Yes. And you are responsible in many places +[2738.56 --> 2742.96] for what happens on your internet. Yes. In many places, but we don't know the laws down there. +[2742.96 --> 2750.00] That's true. So I have no idea. In the States, again, IP is no longer identity. Um, and there's, +[2750.00 --> 2753.36] there's some stuff that's going to have to go on. They have, if you read through the article, +[2753.36 --> 2758.16] they have brought up like security a few times, but I don't know exactly what that means. I don't know +[2758.16 --> 2763.12] if it means that if someone is sharing your bandwidth, that's another thing. +[2764.80 --> 2770.48] Like how exactly the router interfaces outside. Yeah. I don't know. Cause they haven't like +[2770.48 --> 2775.28] released super technical information as far as I can tell. Yeah. It's very basic right now. So maybe, +[2775.28 --> 2779.60] maybe a lot of what I don't like about it is just because I don't have enough information yet. +[2779.60 --> 2784.00] Yeah. Cause it could be like, it just helps that router in some way. However the heck that works +[2784.00 --> 2788.08] exactly. Cause like the idea is even when you're not on the go, you can be in your house and like, +[2788.08 --> 2793.04] your connection is rubbish for some reason, but your, your neighbor has lots of available bandwidth +[2793.04 --> 2796.72] and you can like borrow from them. So does that mean that all identifying +[2797.84 --> 2802.80] packets would be coming and going from their router, not yours? Like, I don't know how it works. +[2804.56 --> 2808.88] Yeah, I'm not sure. And then the security thing, I'm kind of expecting that the only way it's secure +[2808.88 --> 2815.84] is that it's because you're sharing bandwidth. You're not sharing an actual local network. So I don't +[2815.84 --> 2818.96] think they'd be able to see your individual computers. How the devil would you do that? +[2818.96 --> 2824.88] An ISP would have to be the one load balancing there. No, not necessarily. +[2825.84 --> 2830.08] Sharing bandwidth? Like, and like they're talking about this like +[2831.60 --> 2837.04] in wifi terms. Like, like, I mean, I mean just visible computers. +[2837.04 --> 2842.80] I don't think you can connect to multiple hot dogs. No. So, but I don't think that's what they're +[2842.80 --> 2850.48] doing. Okay. They're sharing within the routers. Okay. Yeah. Well, let's see. I will stay tuned. +[2851.76 --> 2857.04] I don't know. All I could find on it was not super detailed information. So I'm not really sure. +[2857.04 --> 2863.44] Ars Technica posts, uh, this is like the best thing ever. We actually had this discussion last +[2863.44 --> 2870.48] week on the WAN show is for better, uh, for, for a more innovative and more enlightened approach to +[2870.48 --> 2876.16] technology, would you move? Would you pack your bags and go somewhere with better internet and, and +[2876.16 --> 2885.20] better technological infrastructure? South Korea has banned unremovable mobile bloatware, both from the +[2885.20 --> 2891.12] carrier level and from the handset provider level, which is, was really surprising to me because you +[2891.12 --> 2897.60] look at how, um, well, okay, up until very recently, I don't know if you saw this. It's not in the doc, +[2897.60 --> 2904.88] but Samsung and Google have come to an agreement that Samsung will begin removing their replica, +[2904.88 --> 2910.72] their, uh, functionality replicating apps from their handsets. Yeah. So I think, uh, there's, +[2910.72 --> 2916.72] there's a couple that are slated to go right away, but you know how you'll have, you know, calendar and +[2916.72 --> 2925.12] like S calendar and like mail, like S mail, Gmail, you know, I don't know, snail mail. You like, you have +[2925.12 --> 2929.76] all these duplicated applications on your phone by default and you can't remove any of them. Well, +[2930.40 --> 2936.72] Samsung and Google have finally started to come to terms on that or reconcile there. And now like +[2936.72 --> 2942.32] iPhones hasn't really been a big deal. Um, Android, it has to a certain degree, but then like people +[2942.32 --> 2947.12] have been able to get around it, but then not that many people. Yeah. I mean, my mom couldn't do it. +[2947.12 --> 2950.96] Exactly. So this does actually help a lot. I've seen a lot of people be like, well, +[2950.96 --> 2955.68] well, I've ruined my phone. Good for you. So it's completely fine for me. I'm like, well, +[2955.68 --> 2962.80] that's not the point. Yeah. Most people, well, I'm going to blow your minds. Most people don't root their phones. +[2962.80 --> 2971.04] We do, but that doesn't mean that. And I don't even like doing it. It's a pain. It's funny because +[2971.04 --> 2975.76] so many people are like, yeah, it's so easy. Her, her. I can do it in five minutes. Sure. Okay. If you +[2975.76 --> 2980.08] do it all the time, maybe you can do it in five minutes. It's kind of like when I say swapping +[2980.08 --> 2985.04] a graphics card is easy. I can do it in 30 seconds for someone who's never swapped a graphics card +[2985.04 --> 2990.00] before. And maybe they have better things to do than spend this time doing it. They will have to go +[2990.00 --> 2994.24] and read about it and make sure they will have to research which one to buy. They might not know +[2994.24 --> 2998.08] the best place to get it. So they might spend more, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. There's a, +[2998.08 --> 3003.52] there's a learning curve. There's always a learning curve with anything new. And every time I've rooted +[3003.52 --> 3009.68] a phone, there's been some kind of problem. It's never at that simple. When I did my wife's droid, +[3009.68 --> 3014.80] I've only done two phones, but when I did my wife's droid DNA, there was like, there was a, +[3014.80 --> 3020.72] there was a radio update that was, you couldn't access unless you got the new over the air, +[3020.72 --> 3024.80] unless you rooted your phone before you applied the new over the air. And then you had to do some +[3024.80 --> 3030.00] weird. So you needed like, it was, it was bizarre. There was very little documentation. And then when +[3030.00 --> 3035.44] I, when I did my HTC one very recently, because I have a developer edition phone, there was blah, +[3035.44 --> 3039.36] blah, blah, blah, blah. There was this and that and that. And half the tools that are out there, +[3039.36 --> 3046.80] like one guy is had his post removed or he was banned from XDA or something, but then you can +[3046.80 --> 3053.68] find it elsewhere, but then it didn't even work. And it's not that simple. So that's all there is +[3053.68 --> 3057.68] to it. Unless you do it all the time and you're just kind of going through a routine and you've +[3057.68 --> 3061.20] done this phone already and you've documented it. And if you have a super popular phone. +[3061.20 --> 3066.40] Yeah, that helps. Cause it was not easy for your wife's phone, especially when I was first tasked +[3066.40 --> 3071.12] with it. Cause there's literally no documentation. But then if you go try and do like an S3, +[3071.68 --> 3077.68] yeah, it's actually not that hard, but then that's because there's all the documentation +[3077.68 --> 3081.04] you could ever possibly want for every model, but then that can be a problem too. +[3082.72 --> 3086.00] Cause it can be overwhelming for someone who's new. Yeah, that's true. +[3086.00 --> 3089.36] They don't know which guide to follow. Sifting through it. And there's quite a few. And some of them +[3089.36 --> 3093.28] are more frustrating than others. And a lot of people pick sides and which one's better. And then +[3093.28 --> 3096.80] that's confusing because you're trying to take sides on an argument. Like I know people, +[3096.80 --> 3101.20] people complain a lot. My moderator is included about all the threads that pop up on the forum +[3101.20 --> 3109.44] all the time. Intel versus AMD or Nvidia versus AMD. And I don't actually hate it that much because I +[3109.44 --> 3117.36] understand that guy. Cause he's probably just like, what? I don't get it. What's the answer? I want an +[3117.36 --> 3122.32] easy answer. And then everyone destroys them. But like, I, I get it. I'm not in that position, +[3122.32 --> 3128.00] but I get it. It makes sense. All right. So, uh, I guess that was pretty much all there was to say +[3128.00 --> 3132.32] about that. Yeah. There's really not. It's coming right away, which actually really surprised me. +[3132.32 --> 3137.68] Like normally you see these kinds of rulings like, Hey, stop doing that. And it's like, you've got six +[3137.68 --> 3143.28] months or a year to phase it out or whatever it is. But I think it's like February. Yeah. Something +[3143.28 --> 3148.40] like that. Something ridiculous like that. There's, um, all, all pre-installed apps must be detectable, +[3148.40 --> 3153.76] but there's some stuff. Deletable. Deletable. Yeah. Uh, but there's some stuff that they're kind of +[3154.96 --> 3158.96] not worrying about too much, which is wifi connectivity, near field communication, +[3158.96 --> 3163.76] customer service, and app store, which I don't understand why Samsung needs an app store. +[3163.76 --> 3167.36] I was going to say the app store doesn't really make a lot of sense. Or let me remove it. +[3167.36 --> 3171.20] Everything else kind of does. And if I really wanted your app store, I would go get it. Yeah. +[3171.20 --> 3180.64] Um, Nintendo is not being allowed to stop certain types of hackers. Um, this is, I think, +[3182.00 --> 3187.92] I don't know. I don't know. I think they should open up more. Um, Nintendo, I think not, I'm okay. +[3187.92 --> 3191.44] I don't necessarily think they need to open up their platform because they're not going to, +[3191.44 --> 3195.60] so I'm not going to try and push them to do that. Um, but I think they need to open up to like +[3195.60 --> 3199.92] indies and people playing with their platform. Now this, I can understand why they might want to prevent +[3199.92 --> 3203.60] it. Although I don't understand region locks. I just understand that it's part of their thing. +[3203.60 --> 3210.56] Yeah. You know what? Um, you know, Twitter, if you guys can find us a fantastic article about why +[3210.56 --> 3215.28] region locks need to exist on games, I don't actually understand. +[3215.28 --> 3221.84] The only thing I can possibly think of is they're hoping there will be that one dude who moves and +[3221.84 --> 3226.48] then has to buy a new system and all new games. But then like, why are you being a jerk to that guy? +[3226.48 --> 3231.44] Just let them keep playing. Like the one thing I can think of is maybe, um, ESRB ratings, +[3231.44 --> 3240.72] like the, um, you know, mature ratings or whatever else. And again, that doesn't seem that complicated. +[3240.72 --> 3246.16] To just have a global game with all the ratings on it. It doesn't seem complicated. Um, +[3246.72 --> 3253.60] another thing would be packaging guidelines. Yeah. So multilingual packaging. I know in Canada, +[3253.60 --> 3258.08] but then just like, don't sell them habits so that you can't sell it in different regions. +[3258.08 --> 3260.72] But then why would you make it not work? Yeah. +[3260.72 --> 3266.48] Well, okay. Another thing is gray marketing. So when it's different pricing in different regions, +[3266.48 --> 3270.08] having people just buy all their games somewhere on the cheap. And it's like, you know what? +[3270.08 --> 3278.72] What are you going to do? It happens on Steam. It happens physically. Like, +[3278.72 --> 3285.52] And, and every console gets a hack for not being region locked anymore. But anyways, um, +[3285.52 --> 3293.20] an Italian company named PC box, which is kind of funny, um, has a little piece of hardware device +[3293.20 --> 3299.68] that allows you to play games from any region. And Nintendo is not allowed stopping them. Although +[3299.68 --> 3305.44] Nintendo, as far as I know, hasn't like done a legal reply yet. Yeah. So we'll see what happens there. +[3306.00 --> 3311.04] Um, I, I suspect it's going to hold, but we'll see what happens there anyways. +[3313.52 --> 3314.64] Speaking of Nintendo. +[3314.64 --> 3324.48] So a little bit of deja vu, like the most accurate version of deja vu I've ever seen. I, I, I, I've +[3324.48 --> 3328.32] been saying for a little while when people have brought this up, like this just recently happened, +[3328.32 --> 3333.12] but then I couldn't really find the article. It took me a really long time. Um, but here's a quote from +[3333.12 --> 3339.28] 2011. Um, well, okay. First of all, in 2011, they're having the 3DS problems. So now here's a quote +[3339.28 --> 3344.56] for cuts in fixed salaries. I'm taking a 50% cut. Other representative directors are taking a 30% +[3344.56 --> 3353.52] cut and other execs are taking a 20% cut. And that's exactly like pretty much to the T what he's +[3353.52 --> 3361.20] doing now because of Wii U. So I, yeah, there is still time for them to turn Wii U around. I mean, +[3361.20 --> 3366.08] talk, talk, I mean, for anyone who didn't watch your video, I didn't watch it. Um, talk about your +[3366.08 --> 3371.76] experience with Wii U. Um, it's, it's, it's been really awesome and there's massive rooms for improvement. +[3371.76 --> 3378.16] One thing that a lot of people have to realize is that like, especially I'm talking to PC community, +[3378.16 --> 3383.44] we're a PC community. Um, I have no interest in any of the other consoles running right now, +[3383.44 --> 3389.68] as in new consoles. So PS4 and Xbox one, I couldn't really care. There's the only reason +[3389.68 --> 3394.48] why I could possibly carry is exclusives. And then I'm not super interested in the exclusives on either +[3394.48 --> 3400.16] of those platforms. What I am super interested in is Nintendo exclusives, because especially first +[3400.16 --> 3406.88] party Nintendo exclusives are freaking awesome. Um, and they're not moving to any other platform +[3406.88 --> 3413.04] anytime soon or at all ever. I don't really think personally, but we'll see. Um, and like the state +[3413.04 --> 3420.32] of PC right now is co-op games are kind of few and far between. And most games that you could possibly +[3420.32 --> 3425.12] play together with a friend are not really co-op designed and aren't really like within the same +[3425.12 --> 3431.44] house planned out like a lot of Nintendo games are. So if you have friends over, it's not the easiest, +[3431.44 --> 3436.48] it now it happens, but it's not the easiest thing ever for everyone to bring their computer and full +[3436.48 --> 3441.20] rig set up every single time. Because honestly, that's kind of annoying. It's fun to do every once +[3441.20 --> 3445.76] in a while, but it's kind of annoying. So if you can have something that has a lot of games that are +[3445.76 --> 3450.56] specifically designed for playing with a group of people in a small contained environment, +[3450.56 --> 3455.92] that's kind of awesome. And that's what Wii U is. It's also not a Wii, which is kind of a really big +[3455.92 --> 3461.52] problem. And Nintendo has recently actually like very blatantly said like, yeah, this is a problem. +[3461.52 --> 3466.24] Everyone thinks Wii U is just this tablet accessory. I can't even like that is, we've had this +[3466.24 --> 3474.32] conversation, but that is so baffling to me that people could think that the Wii U was a handheld. +[3474.32 --> 3480.08] But it's, well, okay, okay. People thought it was an accessory. Before I rip on them too hard, +[3480.80 --> 3486.72] did anyone watching think that the Wii U was a handheld accessory for the Wii? And actually, +[3486.72 --> 3491.76] can you find that article that walked through the, uh, I'm probably not going to be able to. +[3491.76 --> 3496.88] The reasons that people thought that the, okay, well, we remember a couple of them. So in NVIDIA's, +[3496.88 --> 3502.72] or in NVIDIA's, in Nintendo's advertising, they often had the controller, it's a controller, +[3502.72 --> 3507.60] uh, with the screen on it, front and the center stage with like a small black box that actually +[3507.60 --> 3512.16] kind of looks like a black Wii behind it, large black Wii. Um, and then... +[3512.16 --> 3516.56] There's a lot of no's, but there is definitely a few yes's. +[3516.56 --> 3523.84] Really? Okay, there are some yes's. Okay, why? Okay. +[3523.84 --> 3532.32] There was not, I, I always knew. Um, but as, from the people that I've specifically talked to in +[3532.32 --> 3537.12] person that didn't know, I should put out a straw poll for this. That's what I'm going to do. Um, +[3537.12 --> 3541.68] for the, for the people that I've talked to that specifically didn't know, um, +[3543.20 --> 3548.64] what, what they're saying is, like we just said, all the pictures showed this handheld tablet thing, +[3548.64 --> 3554.24] and all the branding was saying, now you can play your games on the tablet and you can do some stuff +[3554.24 --> 3558.08] on the tablet and yay Nintendo. It wasn't saying... You know, they could have, they could have solved +[3558.08 --> 3564.32] this by calling it the revolution. Or like... That was a way better, or dolphin. Or Wii 2. All their +[3564.32 --> 3569.12] code names are so much better than their console names lately. Yeah. Or, or like anything that made +[3569.12 --> 3575.76] more sense than Wii U. Wii made no sense. So I guess it shouldn't have surprised us. But I mean, it's still... +[3575.76 --> 3583.36] I... Okay, all right. I concede defeat. I guess it was possible if you're not paying attention, +[3584.00 --> 3589.04] like, the way that we do to tech news, to think that the Wii U was more of an accessory. +[3589.68 --> 3595.76] But I, it still is sort of baffling to me with how little I care about any given console. I mean, +[3595.76 --> 3601.36] I knew, but then again, again, I do pay pretty close attention to headlines and whatnot. So I'm gonna, +[3601.36 --> 3608.24] I'm gonna grab, uh, Slick's link to the straw pool there. Whoa, it's so fast! +[3609.28 --> 3612.80] With better TTV, if you scroll up, it pauses chat. Yeah, I know. I gotta get it. +[3612.80 --> 3621.20] It's pretty sweet. All right. So anyway, they're cutting salaries and, you know, I respect that. +[3621.20 --> 3627.12] I respect that a lot. Cutting the executive salaries, cutting leadership's salaries when a company +[3627.12 --> 3635.52] makes a bad move. A company is a ship, okay? And when the ship hits something, it's not the fault +[3635.52 --> 3641.44] of the guy that was shoveling coal into the furnace in order to power this, you know, the engine. +[3642.56 --> 3647.84] He couldn't even see where it was going! He didn't know! You don't, you know, tell him that you don't +[3647.84 --> 3651.36] need him to put coal in the furnace anymore, because you still need coal in your furnace if you're gonna +[3651.36 --> 3657.12] go anywhere after you ram into something. You, I mean, the, the, the, the, the responsibility lies +[3657.12 --> 3661.76] with the leadership. And the fact that they're willing to own that, and they're willing to cut +[3661.76 --> 3666.56] their own salaries rather than hurt their employees. So there weren't any, there were, there were no +[3666.56 --> 3672.64] firings. They just cut executive salaries, I think is very respectable. I mean, how, how happy would you +[3672.64 --> 3678.24] be about working for me if we had a really rough year and I was like, everyone's getting cut except me. +[3678.24 --> 3686.08] Come on! Brutal, and the thing is, um, we saw a snapback. In 2011, we saw a snapback. +[3687.04 --> 3691.60] Company rallied, they, they dropped some prices, they adjusted some things, they did a few things, +[3691.60 --> 3697.12] and we saw a snapback, and I fully see that again. In what way, I don't know. I already see 3DS making +[3697.12 --> 3702.72] up a lot of money where Wii U isn't. I don't think they necessarily expected 3DS to do as well it is, +[3702.72 --> 3709.20] as it is right now. Um, so I think that can help off balance the Wii U while they hopefully fix it. +[3709.20 --> 3713.60] There was very recently a patch, um, that massively increased boot time. Interesting. +[3713.60 --> 3718.08] So you can boot into a game much faster. Um, and they're thinking of other things. They have, +[3718.08 --> 3724.40] they have a sale right now for, um, like indie style downloadable only games where if, if you buy one, +[3724.40 --> 3729.52] or if you already own one, you get like 60% off the others or some crazy thing like that. +[3729.52 --> 3729.84] Wow. +[3729.84 --> 3735.44] Like, they're, they're making pushes. Um, there's a few things that I think they can do. Um, +[3735.44 --> 3739.20] I should have grabbed this. I didn't realize we're gonna talk about this topic, uh, this much. But +[3739.20 --> 3743.60] there was a thing saying that you can play DS games on your Wii U now. But I don't know, and I think +[3743.60 --> 3746.72] it's like all, uh, downloadable store content stuff. Okay. +[3746.72 --> 3753.28] But I don't know whether they were specifically talking about DS. Right. Or if it's like 3DS. Right. +[3753.28 --> 3758.24] Like I don't, so I don't know what, um, game catalog is actually on there. Right. Because I +[3758.24 --> 3762.56] don't read into it enough. Um, and I don't know if it's official or whatnot. Like I didn't, +[3762.56 --> 3766.80] I didn't think we'd need it for the show. So I didn't go into it. Speaking of back catalogs, +[3766.80 --> 3771.20] uh, PlayStation 4 getting PS1 and PS2 compatibility is pretty cool. Yeah. Carry on. Um, +[3771.20 --> 3776.40] anyways, the poll right now is showing about 20% of people in our community. So +[3776.40 --> 3780.56] fairly informed tech people, about 20% of them thought it was just a handheld. +[3780.56 --> 3787.68] All right. Well, there you go. I was wrong. So if you jump out of the really informed tech community, +[3787.68 --> 3793.68] Yep. It's gonna increase the further and further you get away. So it's actually a pretty significant +[3793.68 --> 3800.72] percentage of people. It's amazing because, you know, honestly, like I, I don't, I don't see advertising. +[3800.72 --> 3805.44] I just, I gloss over it completely. If I want to know about something, I will go specifically looking +[3805.44 --> 3810.48] for it and that's the way that I get my information. Um, so I don't often consider +[3811.76 --> 3817.60] how much of an impact a TV ad might have on someone's education level about a particular +[3817.60 --> 3824.00] product because to me, nothing, I will not learn anything from your TV ad because I will specifically +[3824.00 --> 3829.92] ignore it. Whereas, I mean, if that's what people were going based on, especially, you know, +[3829.92 --> 3835.20] moms and dads with young kids that aren't really, they haven't owned a game console in years, if at +[3835.20 --> 3840.72] all, then there you go. Different, different direct things that I pulled, uh, while doing research was +[3840.72 --> 3846.64] like, uh, an editor for, I don't remember what, I think it might've been The Verge. His wife was +[3846.64 --> 3852.48] opening up the Wii U box from what he had recently purchased and was confused as to why there was a +[3852.48 --> 3857.92] Wii in it. Right. Because she thought it was a Wii. She thought she was just getting the tablet thing. +[3857.92 --> 3862.72] She didn't realize there's actually a console that goes with it. Um, there was moms talking about, +[3862.72 --> 3868.08] like, going, going to say Best Buy and then being confused when employees were trying to sell them +[3868.08 --> 3874.00] Wii U because she's saying, I don't have the budget to buy this 300 and something dollar, this was before +[3874.00 --> 3879.20] the price drop, tablet, why are you trying to be this aggressive? Like, leave me alone. And they're like, +[3879.20 --> 3886.00] but it's not. And they're like, what? Right. Because they have no idea because all the branding, +[3886.00 --> 3890.48] when you look at it, is a big tablet. And they're like, I don't need my kids to have this Nintendo +[3890.48 --> 3895.60] tablet thing. So there's a lot of confusing messaging. And I think Nintendo is taking the +[3895.60 --> 3900.08] right direction a little bit. If, if you've been watching trending Twitter lately, if you've been +[3900.08 --> 3905.12] watching Reddit lately, all this kind of stuff, they're up there a lot of the time. Well, I think the +[3905.12 --> 3912.24] fact that placed beyond the initial hype PlayStation 4 and Xbox one are so uninteresting right now. +[3912.24 --> 3916.24] They're boring. And Nintendo's the only one really making additional moves right now, +[3916.24 --> 3922.16] but like it, it, it makes sense. And I see them trying and the whole, I have half my salary thing +[3922.16 --> 3927.92] was nothing but good publicity. So I think, I think they might be doing the right things. There's 10 +[3927.92 --> 3932.08] billion people right now that are trying to say, these are all the different things that Nintendo has to +[3932.08 --> 3938.32] do to make better. But what I think they have to do is Nintendo just has to try really hard. +[3938.32 --> 3942.08] And I think they'll be fine. Because they're not, they're not a bad company. +[3942.08 --> 3946.88] And they're not stupid. They're not stupid. They're combining their handheld and console +[3946.88 --> 3950.64] divisions. They're building that new building so they can do it more effectively. They're doing all +[3950.64 --> 3955.60] this stuff. They're working on it. Just let them work on it. They'll probably be fine. +[3955.60 --> 3961.36] I'm speaking of working on things. This was a mistake that I made last week. I had said that +[3961.36 --> 3969.36] the HTC one used a TN panel. I was completely wrong. It is IPS. It's actually in their own FAQ +[3969.36 --> 3976.56] about the one which you can find on HTC's website. However, I do. So it uses super LCD three, which is +[3976.56 --> 3982.16] IPS. However, I do still remember finding information somewhere and I don't know what the credibility of the +[3982.16 --> 3988.80] source was. So maybe that was the problem saying that super LCD two was TN. I could be wrong about +[3988.80 --> 3994.64] that once again. But my point still stands. What I said last week about not all TN panels being +[3994.64 --> 4001.20] absolutely terrible is true. Some are better than others. Some are really hard to look at. And some +[4001.20 --> 4006.72] are what I would call, okay, not bad, acceptable. So there, my apologies for that. +[4006.72 --> 4016.00] This is awesome. Yeah. I don't think it's the biggest deal. I think the prescription part matters +[4016.00 --> 4020.96] a lot more than the other part. So Google is putting glass on different frames and they are +[4020.96 --> 4025.12] now supporting prescriptions. That is the hipsterest looking person that I've seen today. +[4025.12 --> 4031.76] There's more of them if you go through the glass video thing. You just automatically look like a hipster +[4031.76 --> 4036.80] if you have glass though. Not like a hipster necessarily. Like a glass hole perhaps. +[4038.64 --> 4041.04] I actually haven't used mine in a couple of weeks. +[4041.04 --> 4043.68] I haven't really seen you use it since like the second day you had it. +[4043.68 --> 4049.60] Yeah. It's kind of stupid. It's amazing how many people were wearing them at CES. +[4049.60 --> 4052.08] I was kind of like laughing to myself. What are you doing? +[4052.08 --> 4058.72] I don't think personally in the like two seconds that I had to use it because you gave it to me to +[4058.72 --> 4064.16] use and then I didn't even want it anymore. I, I, you know, we're always like we're waiting for +[4064.16 --> 4070.24] revision two or whatever. Yeah. I'm waiting for like revision four. Yeah. I, I don't want this like +[4070.24 --> 4074.16] little glass cube thing. It's kind of terrible. I want it to be the whole lens. +[4074.16 --> 4080.16] The problem for me is that it's not adjustable enough. I can't get the screen in a place where +[4080.16 --> 4086.64] I can comfortably look at it. It's like way up here. And the problem is that my ears are not +[4086.64 --> 4089.44] high enough up on my head. This could help you then. +[4089.44 --> 4094.16] So this could potentially help because they have different frame options now as well as the ability +[4094.16 --> 4098.88] to put prescription lenses. I think it can only handle from minus four to plus four. So no extreme +[4098.88 --> 4103.92] prescriptions, but it should handle the majority of people who just need a mild prescription and +[4103.92 --> 4111.20] want to use Google glass. So you still have to pay the $1,500 entry fee just to be part of the +[4111.20 --> 4118.64] Google glass Explorer program that hasn't gone away and you get to pay another 225 bucks for the +[4118.64 --> 4125.04] different frames. And then you get to pay and they have new tinted shades, uh, up to 150 bucks for those. +[4125.04 --> 4128.40] So there's 40 combinations of colors, frames and shades now. +[4129.68 --> 4130.64] Absolutely pretty crazy. +[4130.64 --> 4133.44] Speaking of things that are expensive, this battle in Eve. +[4134.16 --> 4142.08] So yeah, this happens like every kind of once in a while, but this one was a little bit absurd. +[4142.80 --> 4146.40] Usually it'll be like the biggest battle in Eve ever. It was a little bit bigger than the last one. +[4146.40 --> 4150.96] This one's like the biggest battle in Eve ever. It was insane. This one doesn't make any sense. +[4150.96 --> 4157.84] Everything went nuts. So many people lost so much stuff. The, the, the kind of like, +[4157.84 --> 4162.96] not surprising, this always happens thing kind of happened where someone forgot to pay their bill +[4162.96 --> 4169.76] on a building. Uh, so that building holds sovereignty in the area. If you have that certain structures +[4169.76 --> 4174.48] and whatnot are protected like stations. Uh, just explain what station, not everyone. +[4174.48 --> 4180.08] So like if you have a space station, yeah, it is protected in that system, in that system. Yeah. +[4180.08 --> 4185.76] So within that system, if you have a space station and you have sovereignty there, which is based on having another building, +[4185.76 --> 4190.72] which has maintenance costs and whatnot, I'm trying to not go way over crazy. Um, +[4190.72 --> 4197.36] So it's like the creep. Yeah. Other people can't build on your crap while you have your +[4197.36 --> 4201.28] creep building. Kind of, but they can build the things that take that over, but then they have to +[4201.28 --> 4203.12] defend them and they have to go online. Sure. Okay. +[4203.12 --> 4208.80] It's a, it's a, yeah. But essentially if that goes down, it becomes much easier to kind of shut +[4208.80 --> 4215.44] someone's system down and take it over. Essentially, um, system as in like area in space. Um, +[4215.44 --> 4223.60] solar system. There we go. Um, so, so yeah, there's some people complaining because apparently +[4223.60 --> 4230.80] the, the holdings corporation that was holding, that was paying for that building, uh, had enough +[4230.80 --> 4236.88] money and the check box was checked for it to auto withdrawal. So it should have never had problems +[4236.88 --> 4241.84] with payments because it had more than enough money, like tons of money. And the thing was checked +[4241.84 --> 4247.20] and it still went down. So they're pretty not stoked about that and they're claiming bug and +[4247.20 --> 4253.44] blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Um, so we're going to see what happens with that eventually. Uh, but who +[4253.44 --> 4257.12] knows? I don't know. I don't think anything's going to come from that to be completely honest. +[4257.12 --> 4263.84] And none of that will affect the fact that this cost $500,000 of real world money they're estimating. +[4263.84 --> 4270.24] Yeah. Uh, I've seen estimates anywhere from 200,000 to 500,000. So quite a range. Uh, we'll see what it +[4270.24 --> 4275.92] ends up at, but I'm, I'm kind of, there's been, there's been more of the estimates at the $500,000 +[4275.92 --> 4281.60] range. I haven't seen any like list of lost ships or anything like that. Um, I know there's been over +[4281.60 --> 4288.32] a hundred Titans lost. Uh, if you haven't played Eve, Titans are like when you first start playing +[4288.32 --> 4292.48] and you're like, Oh, there's lots of ships. What are the biggest, coolest ships? The Titans are like +[4292.48 --> 4296.40] massively, ridiculously bigger and more badass than all the other ones. And then everyone gets all +[4296.40 --> 4301.28] excited and then realizes they can't fly them for like a year and a half or something. Um, +[4301.28 --> 4305.28] at the very least, I don't remember exactly what it is, but those are Titans. They're worth about +[4305.28 --> 4310.80] three grand each and there's been over a hundred of them lost. Uh, one of the guys from one of the +[4310.80 --> 4315.76] corporations was talking about how in a previous war it was such a huge deal and they had lost and +[4315.76 --> 4320.08] whatever, whatever, and they lost seven Titans. And it was like a super big deal that they lost seven +[4320.08 --> 4325.84] Titans. And this time they killed 40 within a small window timeframe and were like, +[4325.84 --> 4330.88] yeah, there's still 12 hours until server downtime and their server downtime like every day. And +[4330.88 --> 4334.48] they're like, yeah, we're gonna kill a whole bunch more. This is ridiculous. Like this is, +[4334.48 --> 4340.08] this is insane. Like every single time there's a giant big record and Eve, it's insane, but this is +[4340.08 --> 4345.12] even more insane than it was before. Part of my problem with knowledge on this is I haven't played +[4345.12 --> 4351.52] even quite a while now. Um, apparently it's nine months straight of training to fly it. And then you +[4351.52 --> 4356.40] have to have stuff for like fittings and actually be able to fly it well and stuff like that. And +[4356.40 --> 4360.96] Titans, Titans are interesting because people, people call them essentially coffins because once +[4360.96 --> 4365.76] you get in, like you can't dock in anything because ships can dock in you. So once you start flying a +[4365.76 --> 4373.28] Titan, you essentially fly that Titan until you die in the game essentially. So it's, it's interesting. +[4373.28 --> 4377.84] A hundred, over a hundred Titan pilots were finally freed from their coffins. Um, +[4377.84 --> 4380.72] Freed from their coffins. That's one way of looking at it. +[4381.76 --> 4389.04] Uh, yeah, I don't know. That was kind of insane. I'm excited to read more about it. Um, because a +[4389.04 --> 4394.48] lot of the news I found on this is from two days ago and a lot of it is estimations. So I'm excited +[4394.48 --> 4401.60] to see the, like, this is what happened. This is exactly what happened. This checkbox was unchecked or this +[4401.60 --> 4405.12] bill came out and they didn't expect. So it brought them below this amount of money +[4405.12 --> 4410.00] or CCP screwed up or whatever, whatever. There was a mole or something like that. I'm excited +[4410.00 --> 4414.40] for all that information and I'm excited for the final dollar amount because that should legitimately +[4414.40 --> 4420.48] be pretty interesting. Um, what was also really interesting, I'm buying time for you to finish +[4420.48 --> 4425.60] that. But what was also really interesting was reading the dialogues between all the players, +[4425.60 --> 4429.68] because like I said, 4,000 players, and this was like, there was corporations from Russia. +[4429.68 --> 4434.00] There was people from the States. There was all over the world. So there's people that took time +[4434.00 --> 4440.24] off work, like quite a few people that like officially took time off work, like vacation days, +[4440.24 --> 4444.96] so they could go home and play EVE because the player base in EVE is actually a little bit older +[4444.96 --> 4450.72] than quite a few games because some people call it a spreadsheet simulator. Um, so, so people were +[4450.72 --> 4454.96] taking time off work and coming home. People were like, I think some dude skipped a flight. +[4454.96 --> 4460.72] Um, people were like stuck in airports playing on their laptops, which was super laggy. Like, +[4460.72 --> 4468.56] the things people did to be able to defend their homeland or to attack this area was insane. And +[4468.56 --> 4473.60] it's, it's really interesting. So if you have the time, like, Google it, look it up, because even just +[4473.60 --> 4478.24] reading some of the, like the, the Twitter interaction and reading through some of the forums +[4478.24 --> 4485.52] is, is ridiculous because this fight was just nuts. So, um, did I buy enough time? Yeah, +[4485.52 --> 4492.08] I think, I think I'm good now. Yes. Wait. Oh, hold on. No, no, need another minute. +[4492.08 --> 4496.56] All right. My favorite thing to do in EVE because I'm talking about nothing at this point in time. +[4496.56 --> 4502.32] Um, don't you have any other topics? No. I think there's something. Oh yeah. Artificial cheese is +[4502.32 --> 4507.52] stupid. I was at Subway today and they were like, yeah, we're out of cheddar cheese. So do you want this? I'm +[4507.52 --> 4515.04] like, is that processed cheese? And the girl's like, I don't know. I'm like, what is it cheese or is it +[4515.04 --> 4523.20] plastic? Because they're not the same thing. Cheese is a dairy product. Processed cheese is garbage. +[4523.20 --> 4530.56] And if I'm going to be paying for a sandwich that has actual cheese that costs a lot more than +[4530.56 --> 4537.28] processed cheese included in the price, no, you may not swap out artificial cheese for real cheese. +[4537.28 --> 4542.00] Why do we even call it cheese? They're not allowed to call whipped topping, whipped cream. +[4542.00 --> 4547.44] Why are we allowed to call processed cheese cheese? It's disgusting. Anyway, that was just a rant that +[4547.44 --> 4553.12] I knew. I'm so mad. So she's like, well, we have shredded cheese. I'm like, I'm melting it anyway. +[4553.12 --> 4557.84] Yeah. Put that on. That's fantastic. Thank you very much for finding a solution to this problem. +[4557.84 --> 4562.16] That was obviously going to upset me a whole lot. I've actually been wondering for a little while, +[4562.16 --> 4566.88] why people haven't been pushing, like, I don't really care that much to be completely honest, +[4566.88 --> 4573.12] but why other people haven't thought of this and been pushing for forcing different names on +[4573.12 --> 4578.80] heavily GMO'd products. Yes. Because if it is, if it is something different because you have changed +[4578.80 --> 4587.20] like DNA strains and you have genetically modified it, then is it still a banana or is it something else? +[4587.20 --> 4593.60] And the organic one is banana. Banana plus? Banana you? +[4595.60 --> 4598.08] Is it still a banana? Oh, I'll banana you. All right. +[4599.60 --> 4607.84] Okay. So I think I am ready now. I have been receiving many messages and trust me, I always +[4607.84 --> 4615.04] intended to do something, but I wanted to keep it kind of quiet because I don't know how I'm going to, +[4615.04 --> 4621.68] actually, I don't know, I don't know how I'm going to keep this quiet enough to, okay, well, whatever. Screw it. +[4621.68 --> 4625.60] He's going to figure it out. Yeah, he'll figure it out at some point. Like immediately. Like immediately. +[4625.60 --> 4631.36] Okay, guys, keep, keep your traps shut. Can I trust you to do that? Please don't. We're trying to do a good thing. +[4631.36 --> 4636.88] Yeah, we're trying to do a nice thing here and you guys are going to muck it up if you do things. +[4637.28 --> 4642.48] All right. So basically, I don't know if you guys know this, but on linustechtips.com, +[4642.48 --> 4649.04] there's actually a store now and if you are not a forum contributor, the store looks empty other than +[4649.04 --> 4654.32] contributor badges. So that's monthly subscription fees. Those help us do all the things that we do, +[4654.32 --> 4658.88] just so you know, it's not just for the forum. If you guys appreciate the work we do and you want +[4658.88 --> 4662.64] to contribute to what we're doing, we would very much appreciate if you'd pick up a subscription. +[4662.64 --> 4667.12] But if you are not a contributor, it looks kind of empty. If you are a contributor, +[4667.12 --> 4671.68] there are some things in there and I will be adding a lot more. Some of them are samples. +[4671.68 --> 4675.68] Some of them are things I've bought and don't need anymore, but it's basically discounted tech +[4675.68 --> 4681.84] stuff and the discounts get better for higher contribution levels. So be ready for that guys, +[4681.84 --> 4686.16] because I'm going to be hitting it with a flood of stuff sometime in the next couple of weeks. +[4686.16 --> 4692.64] But in the meantime, something that is accessible to everyone is this item that I just created. +[4692.64 --> 4702.56] I only have one of them, so only the first person will be able to buy it. This is an MSI GTX 780 +[4702.56 --> 4708.16] Lightning Edition for $500 plus shipping and whatever applicable taxes are going to get billed to you +[4708.16 --> 4713.76] when it arrives. I'll ship it anywhere in the world, but it should be noted that the chances of it arriving +[4713.76 --> 4718.24] in one piece are a lot better if you're within North America because shipping internationally is sort of +[4718.24 --> 4725.92] horrible. So $500 and the proceeds go to Austin Evans to help him with something that is undisclosed +[4725.92 --> 4731.68] at this time. Well, I mean his house burned down, so obviously we know that something bad happened +[4732.24 --> 4740.00] and something has to be done. But exactly what the proceeds will go towards will be disclosed later, +[4740.00 --> 4746.72] but that $500 is definitely for him. So this comes out of our... someone's like, will you take Bitcoin? No. +[4747.36 --> 4754.96] Um, so convert Bitcoin to cash and buy it. This is something I don't understand. Why do you need retailers to accept Bitcoin? +[4755.52 --> 4760.64] Because they all do the same thing. They take Bitcoin at a horrible exchange rate. +[4760.64 --> 4762.48] Like a terrible one. +[4762.48 --> 4768.24] Just convert it and buy things. I don't... Okay, anyway, sorry. Sorry. I'm gonna be ranting again. +[4768.72 --> 4775.44] So Austin's house burned down wasn't his fault. It was someone on a different floor whose heater lit on fire. +[4775.44 --> 4782.00] It burned to the ground. He lost almost everything. All he has is a safe with some personal belongings that he +[4782.00 --> 4788.16] didn't say what it was. Um, he's got his MacBook. He's has, he's has his phone and that's just about it. +[4788.16 --> 4795.28] Uh, I don't know what his insurance situation was. So at any rate guys, um, I posted the link and +[4796.40 --> 4800.80] someone's like, give Austin a job. Austin doesn't need a job from me. He'll be back on his feet in no time. +[4800.80 --> 4805.68] Yeah. He's he's he's he's a good kid. He's he's a good guy. What did you price it at? +[4805.68 --> 4809.60] I put it for 500 bucks. So that's about a hundred dollars under retail. +[4810.48 --> 4812.72] So proceeds to Austin. Apparently it's gone already. +[4812.72 --> 4819.84] So if, if, um, if someone, if whoever tried to buy it doesn't actually end up sending the money or +[4819.84 --> 4825.44] whatever else. Oh, I really hope I set it to only one in stock because I only have one. Only the first +[4825.44 --> 4831.28] person will get it. Guys, only the first person will get it. Oh, I said number in stock. Oh no. Okay. +[4831.28 --> 4836.40] That's probably because it's sold already. Two sold. Sorry guys. Only the first one's gonna get it. +[4836.40 --> 4841.52] Um, anyway, so the other thing to bear in mind guys is that there are other things in the store and +[4841.52 --> 4845.44] there will be more added. Uh, these ones will go to the Linus media group coffers, +[4845.44 --> 4851.68] but this one, this one's for you, Austin. Yay. Yay. And I think that's pretty much it for the show today. +[4852.32 --> 4859.92] I think we're probably good. Um, I'm really feeling like there's something else, but I can't remember +[4859.92 --> 4866.16] it at this point in time. Um, someone just messaged me. Wii U will have both DS games, but they're +[4866.16 --> 4873.68] marketing them as just DS games, obviously because of the missing 3d. Um, so I asked trying to specify, +[4873.68 --> 4878.72] does that mean I can play Pokemon X and Y on my Wii U? They've got to lose the whole confusingness +[4878.72 --> 4883.44] with their naming scheme thing, because you know, what's really funny is I was mocking people a +[4883.44 --> 4887.84] little bit for not knowing that the Wii U was a different console. I didn't know the 3ds was a +[4887.84 --> 4896.08] different console. I thought it was just a 3d screen version of a DS. And so you could see +[4896.08 --> 4906.72] things in 3d when available. And then 2ds is like not a DS, which was in 2d. It's a, it's a 3ds, +[4906.72 --> 4914.88] but in 2d. Yeah. Like that's ridiculous. But I have this, I have this DS Lite, which already does 2d. +[4914.88 --> 4921.68] Yeah. Why would I need a, why would I need a 2ds? A DS Lite was just a DS and a DS XL was a DS Lite, +[4921.68 --> 4928.00] but big. Like they, they, they gotta figure that out. I mean, maybe in, maybe Japanese people have +[4928.00 --> 4933.20] better memories than us poor slobs over here and they can figure all this stuff out and memorize +[4933.20 --> 4940.56] it, but I can't. So there you go. I am just as guilty as any of you. Oh, uh, there's this thing +[4940.56 --> 4950.16] at the bottom of the dock. What's that? Oh, that, that's hilarious. It's so old. I know it's old, but I +[4950.16 --> 4956.16] had never seen it before and it's hilarious. Okay. So this is an ancient article on computer world. +[4956.16 --> 4964.24] This is back in 2011, March, 2011. So almost three years ago where ASUS is trying to cut down on +[4964.24 --> 4970.64] shipping waste in Taiwan and comes up with the idea of shipping their motherboards in a box that also +[4970.64 --> 4979.44] doubles as a case. So it holds the motherboard snug for shipping and is constructed. So additional +[4979.44 --> 4985.04] components required to make a PC can be added, said Debbie Lee, a spokeswoman for the Taipei based company. +[4985.04 --> 4989.04] The product is on display at this week. See bit, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And here's a video +[4989.04 --> 4995.36] of it. That is the stupidest thing that I have ever seen in my life. Speaking of houses burning down, +[4995.92 --> 5003.60] do you take a piece of electronics that is probably going to be fine, but may burn up and put it in a +[5003.60 --> 5009.12] cardboard enclosure? No, you do not. Their whole thing was, okay, there are punch out holes for +[5009.12 --> 5014.80] ventilation in a rear panel that houses the connectors. Some people, said Lee, spend a long time looking +[5014.80 --> 5021.36] for a case, so this box is all they need until they find something. Come on. Anyway, I think that's +[5021.36 --> 5025.44] pretty much it for the show, guys. Thank you so much for tuning in. We'll see you again next week. And +[5025.44 --> 5032.80] apparently, Luke has something... I think the Newegg show is called the NAW show. The NAD show? Shut up. +[5032.80 --> 5039.36] N-A-W. Oh, NAW show. Really? Newegg just named their new Friday show the NAW show. +[5039.36 --> 5043.84] The NAW show? It's like, are you going to bother to tune into Linus after you watch? Nah. +[5046.00 --> 5049.44] How much you want to bet they had that conversation off camera? Those guys are such trolls. +[5049.44 --> 5055.04] I love those guys. I love how it's... Oh, man. We should move our show to Friday morning. They just +[5055.04 --> 5061.68] flipped it. We should totally do it. When exactly is their show? Um, it's like right before us. I think +[5061.68 --> 5067.92] the idea is people tune out and then tune right into, uh, to LAN show. So I should just do really +[5067.92 --> 5075.20] extended pre-streams every week. Yes! Really entertaining pre-streams. I can pre-stream, I can pre-stream, +[5075.20 --> 5080.72] preparing the doc, so people can get like a little bit of a preview, and I can do live discussions with +[5080.72 --> 5087.84] people about the doc, and then we can do the full show. Yeah, you... Yes! That would be... +[5087.84 --> 5092.88] That would be... That would be a way to stick it to them. I hate those guys. We need to figure out their exact start time. +[5092.88 --> 5096.08] Yeah, we need to. I wouldn't know, because I never watched their show. +[5098.56 --> 5102.08] Take that, Paul, Kyle, and Vu, Joanne, all you guys. +[5102.08 --> 5110.08] Ugh. And all the other people whose names I forget. There was one that I forgot his name like six times at, at CES. +[5110.08 --> 5113.84] Isn't that the worst? That's why... Steve! That is the only possible +[5113.84 --> 5117.52] uh, reason why I would like facial recognition on glass. I know! +[5117.52 --> 5120.56] There's so many reasons why it's bad that... It would be awesome! +[5120.56 --> 5124.80] Yeah. It would be awesome. Just be like, Luke! Because I've forgotten your name before. +[5126.48 --> 5130.80] I'm just bad with names. It's just a fact. So am I. I don't know. I, and like, people will forget my name and get +[5130.80 --> 5135.28] super embarrassed about it. I'm like, dude, I don't care. Yeah. I do the same thing. +[5135.28 --> 5139.92] You know what? Like, I ran into Yoinkerman from the forum. Yeah. I think a couple times at PAX. +[5139.92 --> 5145.84] And every time, it was like, like, I had no idea who he was again. And it's nothing personal. +[5145.84 --> 5148.24] And like, I felt terrible because he's like... At events, though. +[5148.24 --> 5150.80] He's one of our biggest contributors. He always tweets. +[5150.80 --> 5154.08] He's a really positive influence on the forum. I've talked to him plenty through Twitter. +[5154.08 --> 5158.56] The way I usually recognize people is by their Twitter avatars or their forum avatars. +[5158.56 --> 5162.72] Forum avatars. When people change their forum avatars, I have no idea who they are anymore. +[5164.96 --> 5171.92] And I mean, before MSN and Steam, this used to drive me crazy, was Steam's history of people's usernames +[5171.92 --> 5176.08] only went back as far as your local install. Do you remember that? +[5176.08 --> 5177.20] Yeah, that was terrible. +[5177.20 --> 5180.88] That was ridiculous. And now that they have nicknames, it's not as much of a problem. +[5180.88 --> 5184.72] But back before you could set nicknames for people, my Steam's friends list, I have no +[5184.72 --> 5189.20] idea who any of the people are. Like, I'm half tempted to just do a complete purge and then +[5189.20 --> 5193.84] start re-adding select people that make sense. Because I just like... And like, I was doing +[5193.84 --> 5197.20] a purge and I was like messaging people. I was like, who are you? And they'd be like, +[5197.20 --> 5202.08] you know, blah, blah, blah. Like, Monkeyhood. I'm like, oh, Monkey. Okay, it's you. Okay, fine. +[5202.08 --> 5204.48] But like, they changed their name. And I'm like, I don't know what to do. +[5204.48 --> 5208.72] Okay, our show is sort of done now. We're just kind of like talking about nothing. +[5208.72 --> 5210.72] But isn't that... +[5210.72 --> 5211.68] Cheese. +[5211.68 --> 5213.12] Isn't that basically the whole show? +[5213.12 --> 5214.08] I don't know. +[5214.08 --> 5219.20] What do you think? Do you think that products should be renamed like GMO, like a GMO banana? +[5219.20 --> 5227.04] I mean, what have they changed? Have they made it bigger? Can they just call it jumbo banana? But +[5227.04 --> 5230.56] then is that going to end up trademarked by the company that made it? And then are we going to end up with +[5230.56 --> 5234.80] jumbo bananas and giant bananas and uber bananas and like... +[5234.80 --> 5236.80] Maybe it'll be like Kleenex and... +[5236.80 --> 5238.16] It's going to be an interesting 50 years. +[5238.16 --> 5238.64] Yeah. +[5238.64 --> 5239.28] Yeah. +[5240.32 --> 5244.32] Because I think, I honestly think someone's going to pick that up at some point and run. +[5244.32 --> 5249.12] Because someone's going to be like, it's not technically a banana anymore or whatever it is. +[5249.68 --> 5251.68] Once, and like, maybe there will be a threshold. +[5252.08 --> 5258.16] Like once you get far enough away from the original definition of banana, it becomes something else. +[5258.16 --> 5261.12] Like when does it become something else? Is a size change enough? +[5261.12 --> 5262.08] Like, that's what I mean. +[5262.08 --> 5262.88] Is a color change enough? +[5262.88 --> 5263.44] Like, I don't know. +[5263.44 --> 5268.88] Because if like a banana was, you know, bigger and a different color and therefore much more impressive, +[5268.88 --> 5270.40] maybe you would have to call it something else. +[5270.40 --> 5276.72] Or maybe it's strictly, like it might look exactly the same, but maybe it's based on technical changes. +[5277.28 --> 5282.16] So like, if nutrition values change by certain thresholds, but then how do you quantify that? +[5282.16 --> 5284.08] You don't quantify the nutrition value of a grape. +[5285.52 --> 5288.40] Like, unless you test from every batch. +[5288.40 --> 5289.08] Someone must know. +[5289.08 --> 5292.78] And then you have to do like a custom label for every batch. I mean, how do they handle that? +[5292.96 --> 5297.40] I don't know. But this is, I think that's going to become an interesting thing at some point in time. +[5297.56 --> 5301.12] I have no idea how it's going to work. I don't know who's going to do it. +[5301.12 --> 5306.24] Can you imagine a banana big enough to make a multi-person sized banana split? +[5306.50 --> 5309.02] Like, by carving out the middle of the banana and putting in ice cream? +[5309.10 --> 5312.30] I mean, okay, there are problems with GMO. +[5312.30 --> 5315.30] But you want this like... +[5315.30 --> 5319.64] But let's think about the positive things here for a moment. +[5320.48 --> 5322.30] So let's build a raft out of bananas. +[5322.54 --> 5325.60] Like, what if you could carve Halloween pumpkins that were apples? +[5325.60 --> 5333.42] The pit of that thing is like big enough to beat someone with. +[5335.04 --> 5336.52] I beat you with my banana. +[5336.52 --> 5338.12] With the pit and the stem, you could just be like... +[5338.12 --> 5339.24] It's like a flail. +[5339.98 --> 5344.10] Or like, you know, blueberries that were big enough to have like blueberry fights with. +[5347.20 --> 5348.18] That would be epic. +[5348.38 --> 5349.32] I think we're done here. +[5349.50 --> 5351.42] Thanks for watching, guys. We'll see you next week. +[5351.44 --> 5353.06] Instead of Candyland, it's like GMO. +[5353.06 --> 5354.24] I'm super disappointed. +[5354.38 --> 5356.32] But you know what happened is our YouTube upload. +[5356.42 --> 5358.10] In fact, I think I... +[5358.10 --> 5359.34] Yep, I saved this. +[5359.42 --> 5360.10] This is awesome. +[5360.48 --> 5361.40] Okay, well, hold on. +[5361.44 --> 5363.34] Give me a sec here, guys, because it's probably going to break. +[5363.86 --> 5364.08] Hold on. +[5364.08 --> 5364.80] What does that even mean? +[5365.34 --> 5366.08] I don't know what this... +[5366.08 --> 5366.90] I don't know what this is. +[5367.16 --> 5367.92] What is that? +[5368.32 --> 5368.88] Add... +[5368.88 --> 5369.62] Hold on. +[5370.06 --> 5370.62] Screen region. +[5371.02 --> 5372.18] So this is a new one. +[5372.24 --> 5373.58] This is one I haven't seen before. +[5374.12 --> 5377.30] But when I tried to upload our announcement for the WAN party, +[5377.78 --> 5379.30] your settings could not be saved, +[5379.46 --> 5381.46] invalid request, authentication expired, +[5381.46 --> 5384.66] which is ridiculous because I had just set upload. +[5384.86 --> 5386.02] And in order to change it, +[5386.36 --> 5387.78] I just went to a different tab. +[5387.84 --> 5388.92] I'm clearly still signed in. +[5389.04 --> 5391.52] So our notification that the stream was live +[5391.52 --> 5394.08] didn't go up until like an hour into the show, +[5394.14 --> 5395.24] and I'm really sorry about that. +[5396.16 --> 5398.62] But anyway, the archive will be up shortly. +[5399.46 --> 5400.34] Okay, peace, guys. +[5400.34 --> 5401.34] Bye. +[5401.34 --> 5401.78] Bye. +[5401.78 --> 5401.84] Bye. +[5401.84 --> 5401.86] Bye. +[5401.86 --> 5401.88] Bye. +[5401.88 --> 5401.92] Bye. +[5401.92 --> 5401.96] Bye. +[5401.96 --> 5401.98] Bye. +[5401.98 --> 5403.92] Bye. +[5403.92 --> 5403.96] Bye. +[5403.96 --> 5403.98] Bye. +[5403.98 --> 5404.00] Bye. +[5404.00 --> 5404.02] Bye. +[5404.02 --> 5404.04] Bye. +[5404.04 --> 5404.06] Bye. +[5404.06 --> 5404.50] Bye. +[5404.50 --> 5404.54] Bye. +[5404.54 --> 5405.08] Bye. +[5405.08 --> 5405.12] Bye. +[5405.12 --> 5405.14] Bye. +[5405.14 --> 5405.16] Bye. +[5405.16 --> 5405.18] Bye. +[5405.18 --> 5405.20] Bye. +[5405.20 --> 5405.24] Bye. +[5405.24 --> 5405.68] Bye. +[5405.68 --> 5405.72] Bye. +[5405.72 --> 5405.76] Bye. +[5405.76 --> 5405.80] Bye. +[5405.80 --> 5407.12] Bye. +[5407.12 --> 5407.64] Bye. +[5407.64 --> 5407.80] Bye. +[5407.80 --> 5407.82] Bye. diff --git a/The WAN Show Afterparty - Dec 12, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show Afterparty - Dec 12, 2014_transcript.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ad316741d08663384a53eed2bc4318460e74fb56 --- /dev/null +++ b/The WAN Show Afterparty - Dec 12, 2014_transcript.txt @@ -0,0 +1,598 @@ +[0.00 --> 2.18] There's, that's really difficult to do. +[2.48 --> 3.08] Yeah, it is. +[3.30 --> 7.78] Yeah, well, the way that I had originally, like, the way I would have wanted to do it +[7.78 --> 10.26] was me as Kyle and him as Paul. +[10.38 --> 11.06] I'm going to open the window. +[11.08 --> 13.86] I was kind of wondering why it wasn't the other way around. +[14.12 --> 19.48] The reason is that, um, it's so warm. +[19.48 --> 22.02] It's hard to, yeah, that thing's going to actually, whoa. +[22.82 --> 27.38] Ah, I'm connected to, like, his leg with my headphone. +[27.98 --> 29.30] And then he just pitched water everywhere. +[29.30 --> 29.88] Oh! +[33.08 --> 33.94] There we go. +[34.40 --> 35.32] Too much fun. +[35.90 --> 38.42] Um, so the reason we did it this way, oh, look at this. +[38.60 --> 43.72] I knocked over a paper towel thing right next to the water that I also knocked over. +[44.10 --> 44.84] That's funny. +[46.10 --> 54.06] Um, is Luke had more facial hair in a pattern that was easier to do Kyle's facial hair with. +[54.12 --> 55.40] But Paul has facial hair. +[55.40 --> 62.14] Yeah, but we, okay, our makeup artist was hoping that my stubble would actually resemble stubble. +[62.48 --> 62.82] Oh. +[63.42 --> 66.84] And you can't even tell, but I haven't shaved in three days. +[67.72 --> 68.32] You, really?

+[267.90 --> 268.12] Well, you probably rip it. +[268.92 --> 273.66] It's, it's possible that might be an expensive thing and she might want to remove it without +[273.66 --> 274.18] ripping it. +[274.60 --> 276.38] It's medical, medical adhesive? +[276.66 --> 276.92] Yes. +[277.38 --> 281.02] Is, is, is there, is the bald cap the part that, like, is it valuable? +[281.02 --> 282.02] Can I damage it? +[283.56 --> 285.18] She says don't do it. +[285.18 --> 286.12] She says don't do it?

+[301.90 --> 302.80] Don't do it. +[302.80 --> 303.34] I don't know. +[303.38 --> 304.60] Twitch chat says I should do it. +[304.60 --> 307.12] Of course, Twitch chat says you should do it. +[307.12 --> 308.40] That's the, the voice of reason. +[308.40 --> 309.52] Twitch chat is the worst thing to listen to. +[309.52 --> 309.80] Okay. +[310.08 --> 312.98] Well, first, do we want to get a closer look at it first at least? +[313.36 --> 313.80] Oh God. +[313.80 --> 314.38] So, uh. +[314.62 --> 315.62] It's going to go out of focus. +[316.14 --> 317.30] So, no, no, it's not too bad actually. +[317.40 --> 320.68] The aperture is pretty, okay, so you guys can kind of see how it works here. +[320.94 --> 322.36] And I told her the back didn't really matter. +[322.48 --> 326.66] So you can see the back's, uh, the back's not as clean as, uh, as the top here. +[326.66 --> 331.42] But you can see kind of how it works is you, you, you cut it to shape and then you, you +[331.42 --> 332.28] blend the colors. +[332.50 --> 337.82] So she did the most work at the front where you can see the color of the skin is basically +[337.82 --> 340.44] right into the bald, the bald cap. +[340.54 --> 342.10] You, you pretty much can't tell the difference. +[342.80 --> 347.26] I, I'm kind of tempted to like go home like this and see if I can convince my wife that +[347.26 --> 348.96] I, cause she, she wouldn't have watched WAN show. +[349.22 --> 351.78] But you wouldn't be able to get it off. +[351.86 --> 352.44] Remove it then. +[352.82 --> 352.98] Yeah. +[352.98 --> 353.22] Right. +[353.74 --> 354.08] Okay. +[354.08 --> 357.12] So, uh, is she telling me I shouldn't do it? +[357.80 --> 358.76] She's, she's, she's wrong. +[358.86 --> 360.40] Should I rip it open from the top? +[360.50 --> 362.00] What are you doing? +[362.58 --> 365.50] I, what does Twitch chat say? +[365.62 --> 367.90] Oh my gosh, this is the worst idea. +[368.38 --> 368.78] Okay. +[368.84 --> 369.12] Okay. +[369.22 --> 369.46] Okay. +[369.52 --> 369.96] Here we go. +[370.32 --> 370.82] Here we go. +[371.12 --> 375.36] Can, oh wait, can I get, can I at least get like a picture to commemorate my looking like, +[375.84 --> 378.26] like Paul, something that will likely never happen again? +[378.28 --> 379.32] Just like Paul. +[379.94 --> 382.44] Well, yeah, but video's not as high quality as a picture. +[382.44 --> 384.90] Well, it's Instagram for. +[385.10 --> 387.36] So, Instagram for Android, so. +[388.48 --> 389.28] It'd be lower quality. +[389.30 --> 391.60] Can you do one in the other thing, landscape? +[391.72 --> 392.00] Wow, you're really needy. +[392.30 --> 393.36] Yeah, yeah, I know, I know. +[397.10 --> 399.88] What's Paul's, what's Paul's pose that he does with the glasses? +[400.62 --> 401.52] The glasses are like. +[401.52 --> 401.58] My pose? +[401.58 --> 403.34] Stuck to the side of my head. +[403.60 --> 404.56] Like your profile picture. +[405.36 --> 405.52] Oh. +[407.04 --> 407.48] Whoa. +[408.48 --> 409.04] Oh yeah. +[409.34 --> 409.82] Oh, okay. +[410.16 --> 411.06] That's the good stuff. +[412.04 --> 412.36] That sounded. +[412.36 --> 414.56] Like they're like hanging off your face like this or something. +[414.56 --> 417.84] Oh, oh, that's, wow. +[418.02 --> 419.50] I haven't, I haven't used that picture. +[420.62 --> 422.30] I haven't used that picture anywhere else. +[422.60 --> 423.96] It's just on Skype, I think. +[424.04 --> 425.52] So I don't think anyone else has seen that picture. +[425.94 --> 426.42] All right. +[426.68 --> 428.86] So anyway, this was the side that was better. +[428.94 --> 433.24] I can't see when I'm showing you guys this side, but it's funny because halfway through +[433.24 --> 437.34] when she realized that she had an hour less time than she wanted, I was like, oh yeah, +[437.54 --> 441.02] and the right side is more important because that's the side that I'll turn to look at Luke +[441.02 --> 441.24] from. +[441.58 --> 445.42] And she's like, uh, okay, because the left side is way better right now. +[445.46 --> 448.98] I'm like, oh, well, people are going to freak out if we sit on the wrong side of the couch. +[448.98 --> 451.52] She's like, uh, okay, I'll try. +[452.06 --> 456.24] And then like after like three minutes, she's like, I don't have enough time. +[456.38 --> 458.34] These, these things are not blah, blah, blah, blah. +[458.36 --> 459.98] I'm like, okay, Luke and I'll switch places. +[459.98 --> 461.80] And so, so, uh, okay. +[462.08 --> 462.34] Okay. +[463.24 --> 464.22] Okay, here we go. +[464.28 --> 464.58] Here we go. +[464.62 --> 464.96] Here we go. +[467.32 --> 469.32] Oh, oh. +[469.32 --> 475.70] Oh, no. +[475.70 --> 478.98] Oh, geez. +[480.26 --> 481.34] That kind of worked out. +[481.66 --> 483.36] Your head is so red now. +[483.52 --> 484.42] Does that hurt? +[484.98 --> 486.48] Like, no, actually, it didn't really hurt. +[486.92 --> 489.32] This, it looks like your skin peeled off. +[489.50 --> 489.98] Yeah. +[490.60 --> 492.70] Because there's no makeup there anymore. +[492.70 --> 493.16] Oh, man. +[493.16 --> 494.88] So it looks like there's a layer of skin because of the makeup. +[495.48 --> 498.92] I didn't even realize how sweaty I was under that thing. +[499.06 --> 499.24] Yeah. +[499.24 --> 500.42] Holy crap. +[500.76 --> 501.74] I don't breathe very well. +[501.76 --> 502.08] You know what? +[502.12 --> 502.38] Ah. +[502.76 --> 505.56] You look like, you still look like a completely different person because of the goatee. +[505.72 --> 506.02] Really? +[506.16 --> 507.30] Does it make that much of a difference? +[507.58 --> 508.44] Well, seriously, you do. +[508.44 --> 509.64] Do you wear that goatee every day? +[510.00 --> 514.34] It's like that South Park episode where the evil versions of all the characters just have +[514.34 --> 514.78] goatees. +[514.90 --> 516.34] You could pull that off, though. +[516.60 --> 518.66] Like, it looks like a different person, but you could pull that off. +[518.66 --> 519.46] It's like a different person. +[519.46 --> 520.26] It looks like a different person. +[520.26 --> 520.94] It looks like a different person. +[520.94 --> 521.80] It looks like a different person. +[521.80 --> 522.80] You know what? +[522.80 --> 523.14] I don't think I can do DJ Polly D. +[523.14 --> 524.24] You know what the worst part is? +[524.30 --> 527.26] I look like potentially more of a douchebag just like this. +[529.04 --> 530.52] Like, it doesn't look better. +[531.08 --> 533.20] It's more comfortable, but it's still ridiculous. +[533.58 --> 535.22] She darkened your face, didn't she? +[535.48 --> 535.80] Yes. +[536.12 --> 536.64] You're dark. +[536.64 --> 539.76] So I have like a lot of... +[539.76 --> 540.70] It's not fake tan. +[540.82 --> 542.62] It's makeup, but it looks like fake tan. +[542.84 --> 545.74] And then my beard's been color changed like crazy. +[546.22 --> 548.26] You know what's funny is it's... +[548.26 --> 551.18] There are certain things... +[551.18 --> 553.60] I don't know how to approach this topic. +[554.02 --> 559.66] There are certain colors of skin that would be politically incorrect to change yourself +[559.66 --> 561.62] to for the purpose of a show. +[561.82 --> 565.78] But for some reason, like, permatan, like Kyle, isn't one of them. +[565.78 --> 567.42] So it's okay to do that. +[567.58 --> 570.14] Like, and I'm not saying it's any more or less okay. +[570.28 --> 574.62] I'm just saying that for some reason it is socially acceptable to the point where no one +[574.62 --> 578.98] calls Luke out for being darker than usual to be made up as someone. +[579.32 --> 584.70] But if we were to do the WAN show as, let's say, I don't know, Austin and Marcus or something, +[585.54 --> 587.92] there would be a huge stigma around that. +[587.98 --> 588.44] And it's just... +[588.44 --> 592.16] It's very mysterious to me how some things are okay and others are not. +[592.16 --> 596.34] And I'm not going to get into the topic of whether the whole thing is or isn't okay. +[596.48 --> 597.64] That is not my... +[597.64 --> 599.16] That's not the subject of this show. +[599.32 --> 600.08] It's just interesting. +[600.18 --> 601.20] It's just fascinating. +[601.50 --> 602.84] The fact that it is that way is interesting. +[602.90 --> 605.90] The fact that it is that way is interesting to me. +[606.12 --> 609.06] So is there anything else that needs to be removed or did I pretty much take care of it? +[609.16 --> 611.94] Apparently your beard is going to be difficult to get the color out of. +[611.94 --> 613.52] All right. +[613.64 --> 615.16] So you can piece. +[615.38 --> 618.24] That's like my least favorite part of the whole situation. +[618.98 --> 620.42] Is it just like a long shower? +[620.64 --> 622.12] No, you're DJ Paulie D, not the situation. +[622.70 --> 624.70] Oh, is one of them called the situation? +[625.22 --> 626.82] Linus racist confirmed. +[627.44 --> 628.28] Oh my God. +[628.28 --> 628.30] Of course. +[628.30 --> 630.48] That was the most neutral way you could have possibly said that. +[630.48 --> 633.58] Luke, thank you for not knowing who the situation is, by the way. +[634.14 --> 634.72] No problem. +[634.80 --> 635.84] Who the situation is? +[636.10 --> 636.94] I don't know who the situation is. +[637.36 --> 638.56] You don't either, I don't think, right? +[638.74 --> 639.20] Do you know who... +[639.20 --> 639.64] Yeah, no. +[639.82 --> 640.72] It was from that show. +[640.72 --> 641.28] Is that a person? +[641.36 --> 642.32] Jersey Shore show. +[642.82 --> 643.22] Oh. +[643.50 --> 646.42] I would much rather not know who that was. +[646.56 --> 647.54] No, that's... +[647.54 --> 649.66] People who watched that show should be sad. +[650.08 --> 652.30] No, you don't have to watch this show. +[652.44 --> 654.12] It's one of those things that's shoved in your face. +[654.16 --> 657.56] And even if you hate and despise the show, you still are aware of these things. +[657.56 --> 659.94] No, Jersey Shore was not a big deal here. +[660.18 --> 660.58] Good. +[661.26 --> 662.26] Well, I never... +[662.26 --> 663.62] I knew people that cared about it. +[663.94 --> 664.24] Okay. +[664.82 --> 666.02] You're fairly sheltered. +[666.28 --> 668.00] We've already talked about it too much. +[668.08 --> 668.10] Oh. +[668.22 --> 669.12] We should move on. +[669.12 --> 669.92] We need to... +[669.92 --> 670.86] No more talking about it. +[670.86 --> 671.74] I'm okay with moving on. +[672.14 --> 672.28] Okay. +[672.48 --> 673.42] So, you know what? +[673.50 --> 674.00] You know what? +[674.00 --> 674.72] You're probably right. +[674.82 --> 676.12] Because I've actually never even... +[676.12 --> 679.86] I've never even seen a one second snippet of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. +[680.08 --> 680.92] I haven't either. +[681.22 --> 682.24] I've never... +[682.24 --> 683.80] I've never come across... +[683.80 --> 685.16] I know people who watch it. +[685.28 --> 687.02] So that's the only reason I've ever seen it. +[687.16 --> 687.46] Right. +[688.90 --> 689.16] Who? +[691.04 --> 691.42] Later. +[691.86 --> 692.18] Yeah. +[692.18 --> 693.74] But like, what the hell? +[693.86 --> 694.82] I don't know if I want to know... +[694.82 --> 696.08] Yeah, I could do the whole... +[696.08 --> 696.36] Is it? +[696.36 --> 698.38] I could do the whole goatee thing if I could grow one. +[698.54 --> 698.92] You could... +[698.92 --> 699.72] Yeah, no, I think... +[699.72 --> 701.86] I have never seen you with one before, obviously. +[702.00 --> 702.82] I could get away with it. +[703.36 --> 703.96] What do you think, Paul? +[703.98 --> 705.48] Is it just like a long shower to get the beard out? +[705.48 --> 710.48] I think because you have a fairly skinny face, it does give you that... +[710.48 --> 711.12] That's pretty cool. +[712.32 --> 715.92] It's like you're a bad guy in the 20s or something like that. +[716.04 --> 716.48] If you had... +[716.48 --> 717.08] If you had... +[717.08 --> 722.38] I would want to put you in a zoot suit with one of those flat-ridden hats or something like +[722.38 --> 722.56] that. +[722.56 --> 722.66] Yes! +[722.66 --> 723.56] And I think you could... +[723.56 --> 724.30] I think that... +[724.30 --> 725.34] I want to go get your... +[725.34 --> 726.46] Where is my hat? +[726.50 --> 727.40] Oh, you're going to help me. +[727.46 --> 727.96] Okay, yes. +[728.06 --> 729.80] I'm actually going to bail out and get that done. +[730.00 --> 730.48] Peace, bro. +[730.58 --> 733.98] I was thinking I'm just going to have to smother my face and elbow. +[733.98 --> 734.70] That's why I always like... +[734.70 --> 736.04] Oh, do you want your momentums? +[736.96 --> 737.68] Sure, yeah. +[738.34 --> 738.72] All right. +[739.02 --> 743.96] I'm probably not going to do too much more in terms of after-party here unless Paul has +[743.96 --> 745.32] something in particular to discuss. +[745.42 --> 745.52] Right. +[745.82 --> 748.70] Wasn't I just going to ask, like, how are things going for you in general? +[748.82 --> 750.42] And I was like, oh, we should do this on the after-party. +[751.18 --> 751.92] You should. +[752.54 --> 754.36] You know, topics come up. +[754.42 --> 754.98] We discuss them. +[756.06 --> 756.82] Yeah, how are you doing? +[757.76 --> 758.58] I'm doing great. +[758.58 --> 764.64] I mean, I'm enjoying my individuality and my freedom. +[765.24 --> 766.02] And all that kind of thing. +[766.48 --> 766.62] Right. +[766.80 --> 773.26] I've been working on a website and getting some shirts going and stuff like that, although +[773.26 --> 774.36] they're not quite ready yet. +[774.82 --> 775.92] What's going to be on your website? +[777.26 --> 779.82] Not really a whole lot to begin with. +[779.86 --> 785.42] It's just going to be kind of a home base and a link to where you could, like, see videos +[785.42 --> 786.96] or whatever and probably my Twitter feed. +[787.38 --> 791.54] Just some simple stuff, but I think kind of the basics that I need to get going. +[791.88 --> 792.80] Are you using Squarespace? +[793.72 --> 794.66] Are you using my Facebook? +[795.66 --> 796.10] No. +[796.70 --> 797.10] No. +[797.10 --> 798.10] I have a... +[798.10 --> 800.10] I have... +[800.10 --> 803.18] It's a different company called IX Web Hosting. +[803.38 --> 803.62] Okay. +[804.00 --> 804.40] Yeah. +[804.88 --> 807.66] It's working good so far. +[808.56 --> 809.00] Awesome. +[809.56 --> 810.86] What kind of t-shirts are you going to have? +[811.86 --> 817.26] I'm going with the same guy who Logan works with, Vermont Green. +[817.88 --> 819.48] So I just... +[819.48 --> 823.36] Right now I just actually have a logo that just got finished this week. +[823.68 --> 824.52] Can we see it? +[824.52 --> 831.10] I don't have it right now, but I'm going to be revealing it hopefully soon. +[831.16 --> 833.98] I have some, like, design work and stuff to do, which I'm not really... +[833.98 --> 835.10] I don't do all that much with. +[835.64 --> 840.34] So I'm hoping I can get through it quickly, but we'll see how things go. +[840.66 --> 842.28] I mean, I am... +[842.28 --> 847.00] I kind of have a list in my head of things that I need to do, and I kind of chip away +[847.00 --> 850.00] at it a little bit each day, but I'm not... +[850.00 --> 852.00] I'm not... +[852.00 --> 854.00] I don't like... +[854.70 --> 857.82] I guess what I'm saying is I'm not quite as diligent a worker as you are, Linus. +[857.94 --> 859.82] I think that's what it comes down to. +[860.16 --> 861.48] You mean you have some sanity. +[862.00 --> 862.78] A little bit. +[863.16 --> 865.54] I'm not as diligent a worker as some people think. +[865.60 --> 871.10] I just have a large staff that helps me get things done, because if it wasn't for my team, +[871.18 --> 872.92] I wouldn't stand a chance. +[873.32 --> 873.50] Oh. +[873.72 --> 877.76] Well, you wouldn't stand a chance of making, what, like, nine videos a week or whatever. +[877.88 --> 878.06] Yeah. +[878.54 --> 878.90] Impossible. +[879.48 --> 879.94] That's ambitious. +[881.00 --> 881.28] Yeah. +[881.86 --> 882.58] So... +[882.58 --> 884.60] But yeah, but you're enjoying the freedom. +[884.70 --> 889.22] Are you ever tempted to kind of run back into the arms of gainful employment? +[890.48 --> 892.86] No, at this point, not really. +[893.72 --> 901.16] I'm going to continue to do the one-day-awake thing at Newegg for the foreseeable future, +[901.48 --> 903.14] at least a little bit into 2015. +[903.14 --> 909.40] So that's a good way of kind of balancing out the having feeling like I have a real job +[909.40 --> 911.54] or a place to go other than being at home all the time. +[913.14 --> 915.86] But yeah, so that's working out. +[915.92 --> 917.76] I'm getting CES plans up and running. +[917.76 --> 919.40] I think Newegg action. +[919.40 --> 919.42] Ooh, good. +[919.90 --> 920.12] Yeah. +[920.12 --> 921.74] So I will be at CES. +[921.98 --> 922.52] I've heard... +[922.52 --> 923.38] Are you going this year? +[923.78 --> 925.88] Yeah, we're going to have the whole team, even this guy. +[926.26 --> 926.58] Wow. +[926.58 --> 926.90] Woo! +[927.12 --> 927.44] Excellent. +[928.04 --> 929.34] Yeah, it's going to be awesome. +[930.10 --> 935.54] I think I'm going to be hanging out with the Tech Syndicate guys a bit, and I'm pretty +[935.54 --> 937.00] sure Kyle's going to be there. +[937.66 --> 939.26] And yeah, we're going to be running around for the week. +[939.60 --> 944.90] I'm only planning, like, as far as my channel goes, to do maybe, like, four videos. +[945.14 --> 946.94] I'm not planning on, like, knocking out too much. +[947.20 --> 949.80] I'm actually sort of... +[949.80 --> 951.72] I can be very contrary a lot of the time. +[951.72 --> 957.42] So having done CES with Newegg for, I don't know, three or four years now, I'm kind of +[957.42 --> 963.30] like, I'm going to just try to enjoy my time there this year and actually, like, wander +[963.30 --> 968.62] the floor a little bit and just find things that look interesting and go over and check +[968.62 --> 968.98] them out. +[969.04 --> 969.72] It's like, I always feel... +[970.26 --> 973.84] Like, last year at CES, I did not go on the show floor at all. +[974.00 --> 974.36] The whole time... +[974.36 --> 975.64] I was just scheduled for... +[975.64 --> 976.14] All suites. +[976.14 --> 977.20] ...sweets and stuff the whole time. +[977.20 --> 979.34] So I think that'll be kind of nice. +[979.34 --> 982.14] And it'll be interesting to be there. +[982.38 --> 983.82] The show floor is... +[983.82 --> 986.76] My first year at CES, I didn't actually... +[986.76 --> 987.18] No, hold on. +[987.24 --> 991.64] No, my first year, I did some of the show floor and I spent a lot of time in suites. +[991.78 --> 995.22] And then my second year and third year, I think I didn't even see the show floor. +[995.64 --> 998.16] This is back when I was doing product management at NCIX. +[998.92 --> 1001.74] And then my fourth year, I think I made some time for... +[1001.74 --> 1004.28] This is, like, my seventh year at CES this year. +[1004.98 --> 1009.30] I'm becoming one of those people that I'd have conversations with in my first couple years. +[1009.34 --> 1011.96] Where they'd be like, yeah, I've been doing this thing for seven years. +[1012.02 --> 1014.44] And I'd be like, oh my goodness, how are you even alive? +[1015.08 --> 1015.84] It's awful. +[1015.96 --> 1016.82] It's such a grind. +[1017.46 --> 1018.02] But I'm... +[1018.02 --> 1019.48] You're not doing the same thing, right? +[1019.62 --> 1020.72] Like, you're doing... +[1020.72 --> 1022.68] It's the same thing. +[1022.82 --> 1023.70] I go to the suite. +[1024.38 --> 1028.78] I go to the suite and instead of getting out of the way, being quiet when the media guy is filming, +[1029.04 --> 1031.46] when I have a meeting, I'm the media guy filming. +[1031.76 --> 1034.54] And I tell the guy to shut up when they're having the sales meeting. +[1035.12 --> 1036.12] It's the same thing. +[1036.18 --> 1037.10] I'm just on the other side. +[1037.20 --> 1038.68] It's a very, very slight difference. +[1038.98 --> 1039.18] Okay. +[1040.14 --> 1047.20] Well, yeah, but I always enjoy CES for some reason. +[1047.34 --> 1049.02] I don't know if it's just, like... +[1049.02 --> 1049.74] You're not even human. +[1050.34 --> 1053.58] Granted, it's been very... +[1053.58 --> 1055.56] It's been a lot of hard work at times. +[1055.84 --> 1057.22] But, like... +[1057.22 --> 1057.62] I don't know. +[1057.72 --> 1058.68] I just... +[1058.68 --> 1062.50] I somehow have managed to have a pretty good time every year that I've gone. +[1063.02 --> 1067.74] And not manage to feel too much like I'm just burnt out or whatever. +[1067.88 --> 1070.36] I mean, by Friday, you're just like, get me the hell out of here. +[1070.66 --> 1070.72] But... +[1070.72 --> 1070.96] Yeah. +[1072.24 --> 1074.64] Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, so... +[1074.64 --> 1079.24] Well, we're planning to probably do a similar amount of content to last year. +[1079.24 --> 1083.08] But we're going to have two full teams to get it done. +[1083.20 --> 1087.26] So the idea is that there may be some sleep involved. +[1087.50 --> 1088.60] So I'm kind of thinking... +[1088.60 --> 1089.86] We're going to have three-man teams. +[1090.46 --> 1093.88] And then this guy's coming along, too, for some reason. +[1094.38 --> 1100.00] So the three-man teams is going to be, like, two editor-slash-shooters per team. +[1100.14 --> 1101.70] And then one host per team. +[1102.08 --> 1107.22] So I'll basically do, like, my 8-10 hour day of hosting things. +[1107.22 --> 1111.38] And then my camera people will tag out halfway through the day. +[1111.50 --> 1115.90] And then go edit the stuff that they shot during the previous segment. +[1116.10 --> 1119.08] So we should be rolling content throughout each day. +[1119.26 --> 1122.60] And doing, like, what people expect from us in terms of CES coverage. +[1122.60 --> 1125.60] Which is, like, covering as much of the show as humanly possible. +[1126.48 --> 1127.44] So that's the goal. +[1127.86 --> 1128.72] That's a pretty good system. +[1128.90 --> 1130.96] I'm going to tell the people at Newegg TV about that. +[1131.00 --> 1132.08] But I don't know what they're doing this year. +[1132.08 --> 1134.36] Yeah, I was going to say, tell who at Newegg TV. +[1134.54 --> 1135.64] Didn't they just lose another one? +[1135.64 --> 1137.02] There's a few people left. +[1137.10 --> 1137.80] They lost another. +[1137.94 --> 1139.32] Oh, Rachel? +[1139.76 --> 1140.10] Yeah. +[1140.76 --> 1142.58] Yeah, she was our writer. +[1142.78 --> 1145.12] And she found another job. +[1145.22 --> 1146.24] So she has moved along. +[1146.62 --> 1148.04] I'm very happy for her, actually. +[1148.28 --> 1151.98] She's been looking for a little bit. +[1152.04 --> 1156.54] But I think the place where she's moving to is going to be a nice step up for her. +[1157.06 --> 1159.20] And she's deserved it for a while. +[1159.56 --> 1160.46] Where did she go? +[1160.58 --> 1160.72] Sorry. +[1160.72 --> 1165.10] You know, I don't know the name of the place directly. +[1165.48 --> 1168.30] She told me, she gave me kind of a rundown of it in the description. +[1168.52 --> 1170.98] It's not like, I don't think it's anywhere that people would recognize. +[1171.38 --> 1171.60] Right. +[1171.86 --> 1172.08] Cool. +[1173.12 --> 1175.88] Can I ask, what's with the 2x4 on your ceiling? +[1176.28 --> 1176.86] Up there? +[1177.10 --> 1177.42] Yeah. +[1178.02 --> 1180.14] That's my, like, framework. +[1180.42 --> 1185.62] So when I moved in here, the garage had all been finished. +[1185.62 --> 1188.20] So it's got insulation and drywall out here. +[1189.08 --> 1193.98] But I wanted something up above because the ceiling's pretty high up. +[1194.20 --> 1197.78] So as far as lights, like, I have a light over here that's kind of hung up here. +[1198.24 --> 1198.82] I have a mic. +[1199.02 --> 1201.38] I have a mic thing that I can bring down right above me. +[1201.54 --> 1204.96] So it's just like a big kind of frame that's built up there. +[1205.04 --> 1210.02] And I'm planning to, like, add more stuff to it and actually do, like, a ceiling back there +[1210.02 --> 1212.32] so it doesn't look just like a 2x4 behind me. +[1212.32 --> 1218.48] I also normally wouldn't look like this, but my webcam is attached to the other side of +[1218.48 --> 1221.60] the frame up there to do top-down shooting of, like, builds and stuff. +[1222.02 --> 1222.10] Right. +[1222.28 --> 1225.54] And so this is just my built-in laptop webcam. +[1226.90 --> 1227.50] Tell me something. +[1227.90 --> 1228.48] Yeah, that's better. +[1229.30 --> 1232.26] What's the first position you would hire for your YouTube channel? +[1232.26 --> 1241.06] The first, the thing that I would need the most help with, the thing that takes up the +[1241.06 --> 1243.86] most of my time is editing, I think. +[1244.10 --> 1248.26] So I would probably look into getting somebody to do editing for me. +[1249.06 --> 1252.42] There's other things that I think I could look at. +[1252.42 --> 1259.64] But honestly, right now I'm trying to build a regular system where I can be self-sustaining +[1259.64 --> 1265.10] and kind of see what, you know, like where my income is as far as, like, where I'm able +[1265.10 --> 1267.70] to generate money just to pay the bills and whatnot. +[1268.16 --> 1274.42] And then if from there it looks like I'm going to have a little bit of breathing room to expand +[1274.42 --> 1277.50] beyond that, I might look into doing more. +[1277.50 --> 1278.32] But I don't know. +[1279.42 --> 1281.92] I'm not sure if I want to go the larger team. +[1284.94 --> 1286.06] Oh, he died. +[1291.58 --> 1296.22] I think he's going for rhombus. +[1298.14 --> 1298.58] Rhombus. +[1299.90 --> 1300.44] All right. +[1300.56 --> 1302.88] I think we lost our connection to Paul, unfortunately. +[1302.88 --> 1306.86] That's the thing about internet people is sometimes they freeze. +[1308.96 --> 1312.10] People on the internet, they freeze because internet connections are... +[1312.10 --> 1313.06] Oh, now he's looking at different... +[1313.06 --> 1313.84] Oh, is he back?

+[356.00 --> 357.00] Yes. +[357.00 --> 358.00] Is Nick supposed to know everything? +[358.00 --> 359.00] Nope. +[359.00 --> 360.00] Is that fair? +[360.00 --> 361.00] Is that fair to Nick? +[361.00 --> 362.00] Doesn't matter. +[362.00 --> 363.00] Is that- +[363.00 --> 365.00] Is that fair to- +[365.00 --> 367.00] Right when the camera goes off, +[367.00 --> 370.00] Nick, you're supposed to know everything! +[370.00 --> 371.00] I just see it. +[371.00 --> 374.00] People are like, wow, that's a teaser! +[374.00 --> 377.00] And no, I'm not wearing a bra under the nun costume. +[377.00 --> 379.00] Am I allowed to show this much skin on Twitch TV? +[379.00 --> 380.00] I don't know. +[380.00 --> 381.00] Who knows? +[381.00 --> 382.00] Is that like- +[382.00 --> 386.00] Well, you showed Miley Cyrus pictures, so I think we just lost anyway. +[386.00 --> 390.00] Cause like, if you show a picture of her, there's probably too much being shown. +[390.00 --> 391.00] As far as I could tell. +[391.00 --> 393.00] There's like, what is that line even from? +[393.00 --> 395.00] Oh yeah, I pulled the sleeves up. +[395.00 --> 402.00] You know, I gotta wonder, you know, if legit Hollywood celebrities, like someone like Miley, +[402.00 --> 407.00] started streaming on Twitch with their cleavage hanging out, would Twitch pull her down? +[407.00 --> 411.00] Or would there be different rules for Miley Cyrus? +[411.00 --> 413.00] Depends how many viewers she brought in. +[413.00 --> 415.00] Yeah, does it depend how many viewers she brought in? +[415.00 --> 416.00] Yeah, I'm sure it does. +[416.00 --> 419.00] Would you watch Miley Cyrus play video games just as a curiosity? +[419.00 --> 420.00] Like, not for a long time. +[420.00 --> 423.00] Like, would you- if you heard, like, Miley is streaming on Twitch. +[423.00 --> 425.00] I'd probably tune in to make sure that someone wasn't lying. +[426.00 --> 427.00] You would be curious. +[427.00 --> 428.00] Yes. +[428.00 --> 429.00] So you would- +[429.00 --> 430.00] I'd be like, bull crap! +[430.00 --> 432.00] And then I'd click on it and be like, oh, she is, and leave. +[432.00 --> 433.00] She is, and leave. +[433.00 --> 435.00] She's so boring after like five minutes because streaming is already boring. +[435.00 --> 437.00] Well, I don't- I don't- yeah, I don't even really watch streams. +[439.00 --> 441.00] What if she was like, really entertaining? +[442.00 --> 444.00] I don't- I don't- I don't know. +[445.00 --> 447.00] I haven't really found anyone that I like watching. +[447.00 --> 448.00] Like, okay. +[448.00 --> 452.00] If she happened to- if I actually liked it, then sure, because I would watch someone if I actually liked it. +[452.00 --> 458.00] So you- you tune into the stream, and she like, 360 no-scopes some dude, like, right as you drop in, okay? +[458.00 --> 460.00] I don't care about that. +[460.00 --> 461.00] Okay, well, whatever. +[461.00 --> 462.00] She does something impressive. +[462.00 --> 463.00] Something impressive. +[463.00 --> 466.00] She does something impressive, and then- okay, okay, okay, here, here. +[466.00 --> 468.00] This is- this is actually- this is an interesting topic. +[468.00 --> 470.00] So, so she's got like legit- +[470.00 --> 471.00] Well, we're talking about me, so- +[471.00 --> 473.00] She's got legit skill, okay? +[473.00 --> 474.00] And- +[474.00 --> 475.00] I'm both people in this conversation. +[475.00 --> 476.00] Thank you. +[476.00 --> 485.00] Um, so she's got legit skill, but- but she's doing the whole like degrading to women and debasing +[485.00 --> 492.00] streaming as- as- as a legitimate form of content thing with like, herself hanging out all over the place. +[492.00 --> 495.00] Do you support it by leaving your stream tuned into it? +[495.00 --> 496.00] I- +[496.00 --> 504.00] Or do you tune out on the principle of that people shouldn't be just trying to attract attention by how they look on Twitch streams? +[504.00 --> 517.00] If- if there wasn't a- it's small, mind you, but if there wasn't a group of males on Twitch that do the exact same thing, I would probably care more. +[517.00 --> 527.00] Now it's- it's small, but there are dudes on Twitch that get viewers, uh, because of how they dress up and what they wear and what they look like. +[527.00 --> 528.00] It's a thing. +[528.00 --> 539.00] Um, people don't talk about it because there's a much larger male population that is streaming on Twitch, and most of them aren't doing that. +[539.00 --> 540.00] But it is a thing. +[540.00 --> 543.00] Um, so, yeah. +[543.00 --> 548.00] Yeah, and there is a lot of dudes that take off their shirts on stream and get more people watching because of it. +[548.00 --> 549.00] Yes, but they're not allowed to do that anymore. +[549.00 --> 550.00] And- +[550.00 --> 551.00] Yeah. +[551.00 --> 552.00] And rightly so. +[552.00 --> 557.00] And because of that, there's dudes that have worn more revealing clothes, the exact same strategy that girls did. +[557.00 --> 562.00] So like, this is a both sides argument, so I don't know if that necessarily applies. +[562.00 --> 568.00] It's really weird because you've completely transformed, but you still have really crazy long eyelashes, which is hilarious. +[568.00 --> 573.00] Um, and the- what was the other part? Degrading to women? +[573.00 --> 574.00] They're degrading to anyone. +[574.00 --> 576.00] I would say more like debasing the medium. +[576.00 --> 582.00] Like, taking it from being about game streaming and turning it into being about hanging your boobs or your six pack out there. +[582.00 --> 583.00] Right, again. +[583.00 --> 584.00] Let's say that. +[584.00 --> 586.00] Because I would say it's degrading to men to do it too. +[586.00 --> 587.00] I'm not saying that it's a double-spin. +[587.00 --> 589.00] Yes, all I was trying to say is that it's- there's both sides. +[589.00 --> 592.00] Miley's a woman, so that's specifically what we're talking about. +[592.00 --> 593.00] Sure, yeah. +[593.00 --> 595.00] I- I don't know if I would support that. +[595.00 --> 600.00] I don't also know if I would care, because that's one of the reasons why I'm not really into watching Twitch streams as well, +[600.00 --> 603.00] is I don't care who's- I don't care about your little camera box. +[603.00 --> 605.00] Mmm, so you're just strictly gaming. +[605.00 --> 606.00] Yeah. +[606.00 --> 610.00] If someone's doing really well, or especially if someone's trying to show something, like I like speedrunners. +[610.00 --> 611.00] Yeah. +[611.00 --> 614.00] That is Twitch streams that I'll watch when there's like speedrunning competitions and stuff. +[614.00 --> 615.00] Right. +[615.00 --> 616.00] There's like no personality usually. +[616.00 --> 621.00] Yeah, and I don't care, because I'm not like- I- ugh, I don't want to be like a jerk and say that, +[621.00 --> 623.00] but that's not the medium that I'm going to want to digest this through. +[623.00 --> 624.00] Right. +[624.00 --> 627.00] If you make- I've watched some gaming videos on YouTube. +[627.00 --> 629.00] So you want it to be more compiled and- +[629.00 --> 630.00] Yeah. +[630.00 --> 631.00] I'm not- +[631.00 --> 632.00] Tightened up for you. +[632.00 --> 633.00] Yeah, I don't know. +[633.00 --> 636.00] To me, if I'm entertained, I'm not going to tune out on principle alone. +[636.00 --> 640.00] Yes, no, I agree, but I'm probably not going to be entertained. +[640.00 --> 641.00] Yeah. +[641.00 --> 642.00] That's what I'm trying to explain. +[642.00 --> 643.00] I see. +[643.00 --> 644.00] By the way, my eyelashes are always this long. +[644.00 --> 645.00] I'm not wearing extensions. +[645.00 --> 646.00] To see- +[646.00 --> 647.00] No, I know, I know. +[647.00 --> 651.00] But like, because they're black from the whatever mascara stuff- +[651.00 --> 652.00] Yeah, I'm wearing mascara. +[652.00 --> 654.00] It makes it stand out a lot more, right? +[654.00 --> 655.00] Yeah. +[655.00 --> 657.00] I actually went pretty light on them. +[657.00 --> 658.00] It's contrasting. +[658.00 --> 663.00] My sister did make up on me when I was like 12. +[663.00 --> 665.00] Like, I lost a bet or something. +[665.00 --> 666.00] Sure, yeah. +[666.00 --> 667.00] Like, it's one of those things. +[667.00 --> 668.00] I have an older sister. +[668.00 --> 671.00] I probably- if you have an older sister, you know what? +[671.00 --> 672.00] We're going to straw pull this. +[672.00 --> 673.00] Yeah. +[673.00 --> 674.00] Okay. +[674.00 --> 675.00] I don't, but like, it makes sense. +[675.00 --> 676.00] Who cares? +[676.00 --> 680.00] At some point or another, it's very likely if you have an older sister that you ended up +[680.00 --> 682.00] being a makeup dummy at some point. +[682.00 --> 685.00] So if you have an older sister- +[685.00 --> 686.00] Luke, did you lose a bet? +[686.00 --> 688.00] Did you get made up at some point? +[688.00 --> 689.00] No. +[689.00 --> 690.00] I never have. +[690.00 --> 691.00] Richard. +[691.00 --> 696.00] Let's go yes, no, and then, okay. +[696.00 --> 697.00] I want to hear from you guys. +[697.00 --> 698.00] But, yeah. +[698.00 --> 704.00] She would always tell me that- and like, she did me up with like really heavy eye makeup +[704.00 --> 705.00] once. +[705.00 --> 712.00] And it's like, if someone showed me those smoldering eyes, I'd be like- +[712.00 --> 713.00] You're trying to do so. +[713.00 --> 715.00] And like, not the rest of the- it was weird. +[715.00 --> 717.00] It was actually kind of weird. +[717.00 --> 721.00] Like, the eyes popped and I was like, nope, no. +[721.00 --> 724.00] Nope, nope, nope, I'm out. +[724.00 --> 725.00] That's it. +[725.00 --> 726.00] Nope, done. +[726.00 --> 727.00] This goes- +[727.00 --> 728.00] You noped the hell out of there? +[728.00 --> 733.00] This goes way beyond like, you know, outside of your sexual preference. +[733.00 --> 736.00] This goes way beyond like incest. +[736.00 --> 737.00] It's yourself. +[737.00 --> 739.00] Isn't there something called- there's a name for that. +[739.00 --> 741.00] There's probably a name for anything. +[741.00 --> 742.00] Ah, yes. +[742.00 --> 745.00] Where he looked in the reflection on the water and fell in love with himself. +[745.00 --> 746.00] Yeah. +[746.00 --> 747.00] And like, his whole life just fell apart. +[747.00 --> 748.00] Yeah. +[748.00 --> 753.00] Alright, so the vast majority of you are saying shortcake. +[753.00 --> 754.00] I saw this on the side. +[754.00 --> 755.00] This is new. +[755.00 --> 756.00] No, I don't think so. +[756.00 --> 757.00] Really? +[757.00 --> 758.00] Yeah. +[758.00 --> 760.00] I've literally never noticed that before. +[760.00 --> 762.00] Yeah, Luke likes the pie chart. +[762.00 --> 763.00] Yeah, it's kind of cool. +[763.00 --> 768.00] But it looks like we've got about a 50-50 split between the people who legitimately answered +[768.00 --> 769.00] and people saying yes or no. +[769.00 --> 770.00] So it looks like older sisters- +[770.00 --> 774.00] We've also seen our straw polls are maybe not the most accurate thing ever. +[774.00 --> 775.00] You're not the most representative of- +[775.00 --> 776.00] You're not the most representative of- +[776.00 --> 780.00] People vote for like, what's fun instead of what actually happened. +[780.00 --> 786.00] Well, we'll let you guys know if we ever really need to know what you think, but in general- +[786.00 --> 787.00] I want to jump on this real quick. +[787.00 --> 789.00] I've never seen a banner ad for Bellagio. +[789.00 --> 791.00] It's literally just bread. +[791.00 --> 792.00] What's Bellagio? +[792.00 --> 793.00] It's literally just bread. +[793.00 --> 795.00] Oh, mine's for the Cosmopolitan. +[795.00 --> 796.00] I must know I'm going to Vegas. +[796.00 --> 797.00] Yeah, really. +[797.00 --> 798.00] Anyways- +[798.00 --> 801.00] A little late, booked my hotel already, but good try. +[801.00 --> 802.00] Note about Bellagio bread. +[802.00 --> 804.00] It is made where literally everything else is made. +[804.00 --> 808.00] The difference is they shoot a line of water down the middle and then they sprinkle flour on top. +[808.00 --> 809.00] He worked at a bread factory. +[809.00 --> 810.00] There's no other difference. +[810.00 --> 811.00] I used to make it. +[811.00 --> 812.00] Legit worked at a bread factory. +[812.00 --> 813.00] I used to make it. +[813.00 --> 814.00] Yep. +[814.00 --> 815.00] It is not special. +[815.00 --> 821.00] Goes to show you, if you work at a bread factory, maybe things aren't so dismal for you in the future. +[821.00 --> 823.00] Maybe you could work for Linus Media Group someday. +[823.00 --> 825.00] That was what stood out to me about his resume. +[825.00 --> 826.00] Bread factory. +[826.00 --> 827.00] The bread factory. +[827.00 --> 830.00] Oh my god. +[830.00 --> 832.00] My favourite job title there was Bun Packer. +[832.00 --> 834.00] Oh my god. +[834.00 --> 836.00] That's where everyone starts. +[836.00 --> 837.00] You start as a Bun Packer. +[837.00 --> 838.00] I'm not kidding. +[838.00 --> 840.00] That is 100% the official title. +[840.00 --> 844.00] It is on your like, you get paid as a Bun Packer. +[844.00 --> 846.00] Your official title is Bun Packer. +[846.00 --> 850.00] What you do is you pick up, this is, I'm talking about automation jobs. +[850.00 --> 855.00] You pick up bags of bread from one side and you pack them into a tray. +[855.00 --> 862.00] So you do this for four hours and then you get your break and then you do this for four hours. +[862.00 --> 864.00] You don't think that can't be automated. +[864.00 --> 865.00] You've got something wrong. +[865.00 --> 868.00] So once after that I moved on I was no longer a Bun Packer. +[868.00 --> 870.00] But yeah, that's where everybody starts. +[870.00 --> 874.00] And the entire Twitch chat is exploding. +[874.00 --> 877.00] Because I don't know if you've even seen that episode of South Park. +[877.00 --> 878.00] Yes. +[878.00 --> 879.00] Okay. +[879.00 --> 883.00] The second you start working there, everyone that's worked there for a while is like, +[883.00 --> 884.00] Have you seen the South Park episode? +[884.00 --> 885.00] Yes. +[885.00 --> 886.00] Where they talk about like... +[886.00 --> 887.00] Why would they call it that? +[887.00 --> 891.00] Why don't they just change it to Bun Packaging Technician? +[891.00 --> 892.00] Or something. +[892.00 --> 893.00] That doesn't necessarily sound better. +[893.00 --> 895.00] No, it really doesn't, does it? +[895.00 --> 899.00] You can't make buns and packing not sound ridiculous. +[899.00 --> 900.00] Bun Transportation Technician. +[900.00 --> 903.00] Bun Pre-distribution Manager. +[903.00 --> 904.00] Manager. +[904.00 --> 905.00] Manager. +[905.00 --> 907.00] Okay, now we're overdoing it. +[907.00 --> 911.00] Now, that's like, that's like receptionist versus secretary. +[911.00 --> 915.00] Or like sanitation technician versus garbage collector. +[915.00 --> 916.00] Yeah. +[916.00 --> 917.00] Like gone off the deep end. +[917.00 --> 918.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[918.00 --> 920.00] So essentially it comes back to Bun Packer. +[920.00 --> 921.00] Bun Packer. +[921.00 --> 922.00] Yeah. +[922.00 --> 923.00] Hashtag Bun Packer. +[923.00 --> 924.00] We should probably have a shirt. +[924.00 --> 925.00] Bun Packer. +[925.00 --> 926.00] Hashtag Bun Packer. +[926.00 --> 931.00] Just have like an empty tray with like the dotted out lines around it and then bags of buns. +[931.00 --> 933.00] So they go in there. +[933.00 --> 934.00] Bun Packer. +[934.00 --> 935.00] Bun Packer. +[936.00 --> 937.00] Alright. +[937.00 --> 938.00] So... +[938.00 --> 939.00] Right, yes. +[939.00 --> 941.00] Anyone tuning into the stream... +[944.00 --> 949.00] Not only are we only in partial makeup now, I'm still a little bit Miley Cyrus. +[949.00 --> 950.00] Yeah. +[950.00 --> 952.00] I think we're done here. +[952.00 --> 955.00] Can someone get a screenshot of right when I had taken my wig off? +[955.00 --> 956.00] Probably. +[956.00 --> 957.00] Definitely where it was the best. +[957.00 --> 958.00] Yeah, it'll be on the Twitch archive. +[958.00 --> 960.00] We don't upload the after party, but it'll be on the Twitch archive. +[960.00 --> 961.00] I'm sure. +[961.00 --> 962.00] Cause we'll put that in the memes thread on the forum. +[962.00 --> 965.00] Maybe Jacksack will do a Luke Miley drawing. +[965.00 --> 968.00] I was expecting Jacksack might do one of both of us. +[968.00 --> 969.00] I'm sure he will. +[969.00 --> 970.00] Good old Jacksack. +[970.00 --> 971.00] I was... +[971.00 --> 973.00] Yeah, I didn't see it posted. +[973.00 --> 974.00] Obviously I wasn't watching it. +[974.00 --> 975.00] Big... +[975.00 --> 977.00] Big bra says, dude I'm so high I'm confused. +[977.00 --> 984.00] I was talking to someone about Interstellar and they were like, imagine someone watched Interstellar +[984.00 --> 985.00] while high on something. +[985.00 --> 987.00] And I was like, seriously? +[987.00 --> 989.00] Imagine how many people just left the theater. +[989.00 --> 991.00] Because it's like it's already just screws with your head. +[991.00 --> 992.00] Right. +[992.00 --> 996.00] And if you are messed in some way, that's gotta just be the most ridiculous... +[996.00 --> 997.00] I haven't seen it. +[997.00 --> 998.00] How was it? +[998.00 --> 999.00] I liked it. +[999.00 --> 1003.00] The way I talked to Taryn about this, because I talked to Taryn about space things, is when +[1003.00 --> 1009.00] you go and watch it, you have to be ready to switch on and off throughout the movie. +[1009.00 --> 1011.00] It's not a movie where you go and you turn your brain off. +[1011.00 --> 1012.00] Right. +[1012.00 --> 1014.00] It's not a movie where you go and you make sure you're paying attention with your brain +[1014.00 --> 1015.00] on all the time. +[1015.00 --> 1016.00] See that bugs me. +[1016.00 --> 1017.00] It does. +[1017.00 --> 1018.00] A lot. +[1018.00 --> 1019.00] But it's doable. +[1019.00 --> 1020.00] Yeah. +[1020.00 --> 1021.00] And it's pretty discerning. +[1021.00 --> 1023.00] Like you can tell, okay that is obviously over sensationalized. +[1023.00 --> 1026.00] And then the next part you can tell like, okay that was probably supposed to be digested. +[1026.00 --> 1033.00] Because for me, it's all about maintaining the rules of your, of your, of like maintaining +[1033.00 --> 1037.00] the believability within the confines of the universe you've created. +[1037.00 --> 1038.00] They do okay with that. +[1038.00 --> 1043.00] The problem is that they're, they're, one of the locations is the earth and a lot of +[1043.00 --> 1044.00] times when you do that... +[1044.00 --> 1045.00] You should be really careful with spoilers. +[1045.00 --> 1046.00] I am... +[1046.00 --> 1047.00] Okay, yeah. +[1047.00 --> 1048.00] Guys don't worry, no spoilers. +[1048.00 --> 1049.00] It's, it's interstellar. +[1049.00 --> 1051.00] Obviously there's more locations than just the earth. +[1051.00 --> 1054.00] One of the, obviously one of the main locations is the earth. +[1054.00 --> 1057.00] Whenever you do that, you're relating to real world physics and stuff, right? +[1057.00 --> 1058.00] Right. +[1058.00 --> 1064.00] So they, they do break out of the idea that it's probably not necessarily 100% all the +[1064.00 --> 1065.00] physics that we have now. +[1065.00 --> 1069.00] But, one thing to keep in mind is that people like Neil deGrasse Tyson have come out and +[1069.00 --> 1072.00] said the science on it is like an 8 or 9 out of 10. +[1072.00 --> 1073.00] Right. +[1073.00 --> 1075.00] The problems with it is the oversensation. +[1075.00 --> 1080.00] Because they'll, they'll take something and take it too far to make it more exciting. +[1080.00 --> 1084.00] Like if something would have happened, it will happen, but then it'll be glamorized. +[1084.00 --> 1086.00] Like it'll be more drastic. +[1086.00 --> 1087.00] Right. +[1087.00 --> 1088.00] More aggressive. +[1088.00 --> 1089.00] Hollywood. +[1089.00 --> 1090.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1090.00 --> 1095.00] But the ideas of everything that could possibly happen is probably right, at least to a certain +[1095.00 --> 1096.00] degree. +[1096.00 --> 1098.00] They just made it more visibly appealing. +[1098.00 --> 1101.00] It's kind of like when it, when the movie says based on a true story. +[1101.00 --> 1103.00] Actually, someone, someone brought up Apollo 13. +[1103.00 --> 1109.00] Like why Apollo 13 was such a great movie was because it was, it kind of stuck to, stuck +[1109.00 --> 1111.00] to what actually happened. +[1111.00 --> 1114.00] And that's, okay, maybe that's a bad example of based on a true story. +[1114.00 --> 1119.00] Because to my understanding, they actually did a really good job of, of, of keeping things, +[1119.00 --> 1121.00] uh, uh, pretty true to, to the actual events. +[1121.00 --> 1124.00] So what, what, what else would I compare it to? +[1124.00 --> 1126.00] Any, okay. +[1126.00 --> 1132.00] Any sports, any sports movie ever where it's very dramatized and sort of the, the struggle +[1132.00 --> 1135.00] that the person goes through and they did would have gone through a struggle, but it's +[1135.00 --> 1139.00] going to be designed and, and it's going to be more intense, cut up to, to jerk it your, +[1139.00 --> 1142.00] your heartstrings, pull your heartstrings and jerk it your tears. +[1142.00 --> 1144.00] Um, like they'll, they'll take scenarios. +[1144.00 --> 1147.00] Like I'm, I'm going to do this without spoilers, but it's going to be fairly difficult. +[1147.00 --> 1150.00] They'll take a scenario where, yes, Tom Hanks is amazing. +[1150.00 --> 1151.00] Sorry, carry on. +[1151.00 --> 1154.00] Like there is some impending doom of some sort. +[1154.00 --> 1156.00] I'm trying to be as vague as possible. +[1156.00 --> 1164.00] Um, and instead of it being like probably somewhat mild and to a certain degree avoidable, +[1164.00 --> 1169.00] they'll make it so that it's very aggressive and not avoidable. +[1169.00 --> 1171.00] That's basically all I'm going to go to. +[1171.00 --> 1174.00] So like it, it would have happened regardless. +[1174.00 --> 1175.00] Right. +[1175.00 --> 1179.00] They're just changing slight properties about it, but they're not changing the fact that it happened. +[1179.00 --> 1180.00] If they're not changing. +[1180.00 --> 1183.00] They're changing outcomes more than the circumstances. +[1183.00 --> 1187.00] The, yeah, because things are more drastic than they should be. +[1187.00 --> 1188.00] I've got. +[1188.00 --> 1189.00] It's like, it's like you catalyzed everything. +[1189.00 --> 1190.00] Right. +[1190.00 --> 1192.00] I've got people asking why I'm wearing the Shurs. +[1192.00 --> 1194.00] I forgot my Sennheisers at home. +[1194.00 --> 1196.00] I almost never forget my headphones. +[1196.00 --> 1197.00] I wear them to sleep. +[1197.00 --> 1201.00] So I wake up next to them and I grab them as I get out of bed every morning. +[1201.00 --> 1202.00] Yeah. +[1202.00 --> 1203.00] Um, but yeah, no, I don't have them today. +[1203.00 --> 1204.00] So I needed something to wear. +[1204.00 --> 1205.00] These are quite comfortable. +[1205.00 --> 1208.00] That's what I really like about the SE 215s. +[1208.00 --> 1209.00] The comfort is outstanding. +[1209.00 --> 1211.00] The connectors are kind of pretty good. +[1211.00 --> 1212.00] Oh my God. +[1212.00 --> 1214.00] I've heard they used to be better. +[1214.00 --> 1215.00] Wow. +[1215.00 --> 1216.00] That's awful. +[1216.00 --> 1219.00] Are you going to send that to me so that I can share it? +[1219.00 --> 1220.00] Oh man. +[1220.00 --> 1222.00] Send it on, uh, here? +[1222.00 --> 1223.00] Yeah. +[1223.00 --> 1224.00] Yeah. +[1224.00 --> 1225.00] I got this. +[1225.00 --> 1229.00] Someone just said Luke, check this out in the chat and usually I don't click on those, +[1229.00 --> 1231.00] but I thought it might've been the screenshot. +[1231.00 --> 1232.00] Yeah. +[1232.00 --> 1234.00] It's not the screenshot, but it's still pretty good. +[1234.00 --> 1235.00] Yeah. +[1239.00 --> 1241.00] I don't even know what to say. +[1241.00 --> 1242.00] Why do we even do this show?

I just got to pull down the we're live tweets and everything +[14.72 --> 17.96] Yeah, I always forget to do that and then I get all these people +[20.52 --> 22.52] Yeah, sorry sorry +[23.22 --> 28.70] My favorite thing ever was when I did I can't after party tonight by the way guys I have more Christmas stuff to do +[28.70 --> 30.70] I'm sorry +[31.64 --> 35.50] But I can't do my after party I guess this one's gonna be really short +[36.20 --> 38.56] But I did an after party for Far Cry 4 +[38.76 --> 46.38] Then I did the alternate ending which was like a huge amount of standing in one spot and then essentially a short cinematic and then the game ends +[47.94 --> 51.42] And then I was like, okay cool done and then just close the whole stream +[51.88 --> 57.46] That's terrible. I came back later. I'd like completely shut down the whole stream everyone's like +[58.70 --> 65.96] I essentially stood in one spot for 15 minutes watched like a two minute long cinematic and then it just closed the whole stream +[65.96 --> 69.16] You're terrible. That was awesome +[69.16 --> 76.46] I um, I'm kind of excited. I kind of want to stream this weekend just so that I can try out the razor siren mic +[76.46 --> 82.22] But they've sent me two of them so far and neither of them works on my desktop for some reason +[82.22 --> 86.92] It just says this device cannot start. I pulled one of them into the office today plugged it into the Mac +[87.88 --> 91.10] Worked instantly so I'm not sure what the deal is +[91.10 --> 94.40] I haven't heard back from them today because it's like holiday week and stuff +[94.40 --> 99.64] But we actually had a new peak viewer count today. Did we yeah? Wow. We passed 7k +[99.64 --> 105.70] Wow, that's incredible. That was pretty sweet and we covered like two news topics. I know +[107.06 --> 112.30] Well, there wasn't a lot to talk about. It is a cool show regardless. I think I thought it was alright. Yeah +[113.08 --> 115.24] Apparently other people did too. It's just kind of funny +[116.84 --> 120.14] I like these loot crate sponsor spots. They're fun. They are fun +[120.14 --> 124.88] We get to open the thing. I feel like we do them for way too long, but like I don't know. I'm having fun +[124.88 --> 129.08] Yeah, and I want to pull everything out and no one really seems to like oh my god +[129.08 --> 133.60] That's not how you're supposed to use it is it I guess you claimed it now. I only touched it with my teeth +[133.60 --> 137.50] There's actually very little saliva. Ha ha you didn't say there's no saliva +[138.28 --> 140.28] Very little well, we could give it to Nick +[142.32 --> 146.42] Alright that works. I mean what's a better way of like marking your territory +[146.42 --> 151.84] Is it marking your territory and making sure everyone knows you marked it or marking your territory and then letting them use it +[154.88 --> 160.64] I don't know I think in theory making sure that everyone knows but if you wanted to troll +[162.02 --> 168.38] Instead of like actually marking it so that other people don't have it if you want to just troll then yeah, I think you're fine, right? +[170.30 --> 176.38] I'm tired. Yeah me too. I feel I have a sore throat though. I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick. Oh really? Yeah +[176.72 --> 181.26] Don't get sick for CES dude. Well better to get sick before CES than at CES +[181.26 --> 188.48] Well, yeah, oh my god. That was so much peanut butter on my hand. That was disgusting. That was insane +[191.68 --> 197.72] So for the new office should we try to queue up content before we move into it or should we just like +[198.32 --> 202.24] Dedicate two of our people to shooting and editing like a live +[203.54 --> 205.54] moving blog and +[205.54 --> 210.54] And just do that for a week. I guess we could ask people I don't like the I mean +[210.54 --> 212.12] I don't mind the moving blog idea +[212.12 --> 216.14] But I think what we could almost do is like queue up a little bit of content and then weave it +[217.06 --> 224.64] Hmm so have like moving blog content moving blog content moving blog content right so every movie blog is like two days of moving +[224.78 --> 229.96] Kind of thing instead of just one day of moving I think enough entertaining stuff would happen in one day of moving +[229.96 --> 235.80] I didn't mean it because of that I meant it for the people that might not care about moving blog +[236.12 --> 238.12] Right they get more normal content +[239.08 --> 246.20] Might also be fine. I don't know another thing that we should we could do unboxings we could weave in unboxings +[246.40 --> 251.16] Yeah, I was actually just gonna say like I was actually kind of thinking for next year people some people +[251.72 --> 258.24] Really like the unboxing some people don't but I was thinking maybe we could do like one unboxing day a week next year or something like that +[258.24 --> 263.74] Like Monday's unboxing day. Yeah, we're like unboxing Saturdays or something like that +[264.52 --> 269.18] But like we could figure out what's our worst day of the week or something like that +[269.18 --> 273.96] And we could do the unboxings there so that way the people who are like really hardcore and want to watch it can watch it +[273.96 --> 280.26] And watch it but the people who sort of have their own schedule that doesn't revolve around when we release content +[280.68 --> 283.76] We can save the higher production value stuff for that. That'd be cool +[283.76 --> 286.22] I like that idea to putting it on the low traffic day +[286.22 --> 291.28] The problem is we have such a hard time figuring out what our low traffic days are because these people keep watching +[291.28 --> 293.04] Yeah, they keep increasing our max +[293.04 --> 298.30] Well, I expected the video that I uploaded on Christmas Eve night to just tank +[298.98 --> 300.18] Right +[300.18 --> 307.24] But that video which is our 4k gaming system like value gaming system build log +[308.00 --> 310.00] has +[310.00 --> 313.00] Right the apps better it doesn't make any sense +[313.00 --> 315.06] 260,000 views +[315.06 --> 315.56] Yes +[315.56 --> 320.04] Like people watch the crap out of that on Christmas Day +[320.04 --> 326.64] I was at okay. This might sound a little bit weird, but I was at a like house party thing for +[327.74 --> 332.60] Christmas with like some friends that I went to high school with and one of the guys put a +[332.60 --> 340.98] Linus Tech Tips build log video that went up that day on the TV through Chromecast and it was the most awkward thing +[342.98 --> 345.50] They knew who you were right? Oh good +[346.58 --> 348.58] I'm just sitting there. I'm just like +[348.58 --> 353.64] With all the in your endo jokes? +[353.64 --> 354.64] Yeah, pretty much +[354.64 --> 356.64] Yeah, were your parents there? +[356.64 --> 357.64] No +[357.64 --> 358.64] Oh good, so this was just friends +[358.64 --> 359.14] Yeah +[359.14 --> 360.14] Okay, that's cool +[360.14 --> 360.64] Yeah +[360.64 --> 361.14] Yeah +[361.14 --> 364.64] If my parents were there it would have been my parents doing that +[364.64 --> 365.64] Right +[365.64 --> 366.64] They do that +[366.64 --> 370.76] They'll have like relatives over and they're like, alright, time to watch like +[370.76 --> 372.92] LDT videos +[372.92 --> 376.88] That's so weird like my family has zero interest in what I do +[376.88 --> 377.46] Right +[377.46 --> 378.58] Like nothing +[378.58 --> 382.66] Like I think about the extent of +[382.66 --> 386.72] About the extent of their involvement +[386.72 --> 394.46] I think about the extent of their involvement in my show is like +[394.46 --> 397.88] They know that I make YouTube videos +[397.88 --> 399.14] They know what YouTube is +[399.14 --> 401.44] I think my dad has watched a couple of my videos +[401.44 --> 406.96] Meanwhile, there's my parents who have both seen every single video on LysetecDipsTechQuickie and SuperFun +[406.96 --> 410.74] A lot of times separately because they won't have time to watch it together +[410.74 --> 413.12] That is so funny +[413.12 --> 416.46] Mr. Wizard said thank you for the shout out +[416.46 --> 418.30] No, thank you Mr. Wizard +[418.30 --> 422.36] The forum doesn't run without the administration staff +[422.36 --> 425.82] And if your admin is under your name on the forum +[425.82 --> 428.14] Then you're either an administration staff or you're Nick +[428.14 --> 429.22] Or Linus +[429.22 --> 430.02] Or your administration +[430.02 --> 432.28] Wow +[432.28 --> 434.34] Jock's fired +[434.34 --> 436.64] What have you done to admin the forum? +[436.70 --> 440.66] I monitor the messages inbox sometimes +[440.66 --> 443.32] Right, that's true +[443.32 --> 445.66] That is an administrative function +[445.66 --> 448.70] A lot of it's like junk and sales though +[448.70 --> 451.00] Yes, and I ignore that +[451.00 --> 453.08] And I just leave it in the inbox +[453.08 --> 457.44] I know, which means that there's like 200 pending messages all the time +[457.44 --> 459.50] Well honestly, I leave a lot of stuff in there +[459.50 --> 461.82] Just because it's like I don't have +[461.82 --> 464.24] Like I never really have time to sit down and deal with it +[464.24 --> 466.06] And it's a very inefficient messaging system +[466.06 --> 466.88] It is, it's really +[466.88 --> 468.76] So, but like I feel bad +[468.76 --> 470.34] But some of that stuff is just like +[470.34 --> 472.10] Why are people messaging me through here? +[472.10 --> 474.08] Like I had someone message me today +[474.08 --> 474.36] I don't know how difficult to do it +[474.36 --> 476.48] Through linusmediagroup.com +[476.48 --> 477.48] Asking me +[477.48 --> 479.16] And I don't mean to call this person out +[479.16 --> 480.00] But just like +[480.00 --> 481.90] Sometimes I kind of shake my head +[481.90 --> 482.94] Because the message is +[482.94 --> 487.32] Yeah, there's this really cool Corsair case +[487.32 --> 489.54] And I think it's the 380T or 2 +[489.54 --> 490.14] Air 240 +[490.14 --> 490.76] Air 240 +[490.76 --> 492.52] It's a really cool Corsair case +[492.52 --> 494.78] And I can't find any reviews of it online +[494.78 --> 495.98] Can you do a video about it? +[496.66 --> 497.26] And I'm just like +[497.26 --> 497.88] Don't we have one? +[498.76 --> 499.46] Yeah, we do +[499.46 --> 501.60] So I go on YouTube +[501.60 --> 502.98] And I type in +[502.98 --> 503.90] Air 240 +[503.90 --> 506.82] Our video is literally the first hit +[506.82 --> 508.42] And it's just like +[508.42 --> 509.22] And I'm not gonna +[509.22 --> 510.12] I'm not gonna send them +[510.12 --> 511.12] And let me Google that for you +[511.12 --> 511.52] Like it's +[511.52 --> 513.10] Like I'm not gonna be like that about it +[513.10 --> 514.22] So I'll just link them in the video +[514.22 --> 516.20] But it's like +[516.20 --> 517.42] It's the first hit +[517.42 --> 518.84] How hard could you have looked? +[519.34 --> 519.60] And it's +[519.60 --> 520.80] But the thing is +[520.80 --> 521.74] Is that it's not like the guy +[521.74 --> 522.92] Didn't put any effort into it +[522.92 --> 524.22] He managed to go all the way +[524.22 --> 525.58] To linusmediagroup.com +[525.58 --> 526.70] Which nobody uses +[526.70 --> 527.00] No +[527.00 --> 528.64] Find the contact us form +[528.64 --> 529.98] Which nobody uses +[529.98 --> 530.48] Yeah +[530.48 --> 532.44] And send an email about it +[532.44 --> 534.02] And like that was so much more work +[534.02 --> 535.44] Than just searching for it +[535.44 --> 536.64] On YouTube in the first place +[536.64 --> 538.48] Misdirected effort +[538.48 --> 539.60] This is why I think +[539.60 --> 541.36] That video that no one agrees with me +[541.36 --> 541.90] Is important +[541.90 --> 543.58] Including everyone else that I've asked +[543.58 --> 544.94] Not even just linusmediagroup +[544.94 --> 546.80] But just the Google food video +[546.80 --> 547.86] Right +[547.86 --> 550.00] Yeah, maybe we should do it +[550.00 --> 551.34] No one thinks it's important +[551.34 --> 552.48] It probably won't do that well +[552.48 --> 553.34] But I just +[553.34 --> 554.46] I know there's people out there +[554.46 --> 554.94] That need it +[554.94 --> 555.42] People get slammed +[555.42 --> 556.60] Just for doing that video +[556.60 --> 557.02] I know, I know +[557.02 --> 558.46] Like I know +[558.46 --> 559.90] Okay +[559.90 --> 560.98] The problem +[560.98 --> 562.44] Is it's one of those things +[562.44 --> 563.90] Where the people it would help +[563.90 --> 565.42] It will never reach +[565.42 --> 565.84] Yeah +[565.84 --> 566.44] No, I know +[566.44 --> 567.74] And that's a huge part of the problem +[567.74 --> 568.80] But like I know +[568.80 --> 569.72] A lot of people need it +[569.72 --> 571.10] But there's also a huge amount of people +[571.10 --> 572.36] That it's just a waste of time for +[572.36 --> 573.20] Because they're fine +[573.20 --> 574.34] And it's not going to help them +[574.34 --> 575.50] I just +[575.50 --> 576.12] There's +[576.12 --> 577.16] There's people out there +[577.16 --> 578.62] That just don't have the Google food +[578.62 --> 580.60] Yeah +[580.60 --> 582.10] Yeah +[582.10 --> 583.20] I think it's a life skill +[583.20 --> 584.18] I think it should be like +[584.18 --> 584.68] It is now +[584.68 --> 584.74] It is now +[584.74 --> 585.28] In class +[585.28 --> 585.70] Yeah +[585.70 --> 587.32] Like what was it +[587.32 --> 588.18] Finland +[588.18 --> 590.42] That was doing the typing courses +[590.42 --> 590.82] And whatnot +[590.82 --> 591.60] Coding, yeah +[591.60 --> 592.64] Coding? +[592.88 --> 593.90] Yeah, they do coding now +[593.90 --> 595.20] I think +[595.20 --> 596.04] No, they replaced +[596.04 --> 597.66] Oh, cursive +[597.66 --> 599.30] With typing, yeah +[599.30 --> 600.28] Typing and what we thought +[600.28 --> 601.06] Was phone texting +[601.06 --> 601.78] But it's actually +[601.78 --> 602.72] Printing +[602.72 --> 603.32] Printing, yeah +[603.32 --> 603.88] Which they thought +[603.88 --> 604.80] We were joking about +[604.80 --> 606.10] And then I messaged someone +[606.10 --> 607.14] Telling me that we call it +[607.14 --> 607.78] Printing here +[607.78 --> 608.14] Haha +[608.14 --> 609.54] Because printing is like +[609.54 --> 610.36] A printer printing +[610.36 --> 611.22] But we also +[611.22 --> 613.50] We call block letters printing +[613.50 --> 614.88] And then they were really confused +[614.88 --> 615.42] Yeah +[615.42 --> 616.48] It's just like +[616.48 --> 616.82] Okay +[616.82 --> 617.96] What we have here +[617.96 --> 619.00] Is a failure to communicate +[619.00 --> 619.30] Yeah +[619.30 --> 619.68] That's fine +[619.68 --> 622.08] But yeah +[622.08 --> 623.58] They should almost introduce it +[623.58 --> 624.26] Into that class +[624.26 --> 624.96] It should just be like +[624.96 --> 625.76] Modern skills +[625.76 --> 628.26] While we're marveling +[628.26 --> 629.02] At just like +[629.02 --> 630.82] Crazy Shaz +[630.82 --> 631.86] For this year +[631.86 --> 633.26] Here's our +[633.26 --> 635.20] Here's our viewership graph +[635.20 --> 635.98] For this year +[635.98 --> 637.44] This is just crazy +[637.44 --> 639.18] My favorite thing +[639.18 --> 639.66] Was the +[639.66 --> 640.74] Twitch chat explosion +[640.74 --> 641.28] When it saw +[641.28 --> 642.32] The estimated earnings +[642.32 --> 643.34] And like +[643.34 --> 644.20] You guys forget +[644.20 --> 645.42] That all of you guys +[645.42 --> 646.32] Are running ad block +[646.32 --> 646.80] Haha +[646.80 --> 649.48] Like all of you +[649.48 --> 649.96] Basically +[649.96 --> 651.04] As far as I can tell +[651.04 --> 652.38] Yeah +[652.38 --> 654.36] And the estimated earnings +[654.36 --> 654.88] Are like +[654.88 --> 657.26] A pretty broad range there +[657.26 --> 657.72] Yeah +[657.72 --> 658.54] But yeah +[658.54 --> 659.26] Check this out +[659.26 --> 660.84] So this is CES +[660.84 --> 662.36] You can always see CES +[662.36 --> 662.84] On the +[662.84 --> 665.44] There's a pretty gigantic blip +[665.44 --> 665.82] Yes +[665.82 --> 666.76] And then it was like +[666.76 --> 667.24] Flat +[667.24 --> 667.42] Flat +[667.42 --> 667.58] Flat +[667.58 --> 667.66] Flat +[667.66 --> 668.02] Flat +[668.02 --> 668.06] Flat +[668.06 --> 668.16] Flat +[668.16 --> 668.42] Flat +[668.42 --> 668.76] Flat +[668.76 --> 669.42] So my goal +[669.42 --> 670.64] Coming into this year +[670.64 --> 672.78] Was 200,000 views a day +[672.78 --> 673.84] Average +[673.84 --> 676.32] And we were kind of like +[676.32 --> 676.92] Getting there +[676.92 --> 677.26] Getting there +[677.26 --> 677.64] Getting there +[677.64 --> 678.02] Getting there +[678.02 --> 678.62] Getting there +[678.62 --> 679.10] Oh +[679.10 --> 679.36] Oh +[679.36 --> 680.64] We kind of held it for a bit +[680.64 --> 683.32] No +[683.32 --> 683.64] No +[683.64 --> 684.24] Oh crap +[684.24 --> 685.12] It kind of fell apart +[685.12 --> 685.60] Getting there +[685.60 --> 685.96] Getting there +[685.96 --> 687.20] And then something +[687.20 --> 688.28] Happened in June +[688.28 --> 689.20] And I don't know +[689.20 --> 689.66] If it's something +[689.66 --> 690.54] That our viewers +[690.54 --> 691.50] Started doing differently +[691.50 --> 692.40] Or something that +[692.40 --> 693.52] We started doing differently +[693.52 --> 695.04] But we went from +[695.04 --> 696.24] Not getting it +[696.24 --> 697.06] To +[697.06 --> 698.24] Beginning of June +[698.24 --> 699.16] End of May +[699.16 --> 701.74] And I don't think +[701.74 --> 702.60] We fell below +[702.60 --> 703.46] 200,000 +[703.46 --> 704.32] For the entire rest +[704.32 --> 704.72] Of the year +[704.72 --> 706.14] And then +[706.14 --> 707.38] And now +[707.38 --> 709.24] Now +[709.24 --> 710.18] We're tracking +[710.18 --> 711.70] Like 400 +[711.70 --> 713.08] 450,000 +[713.08 --> 713.56] Average +[713.56 --> 713.96] A day +[713.96 --> 714.74] Just nuts +[714.74 --> 716.26] And that's our new peak +[716.26 --> 717.80] 610,000 views +[717.80 --> 718.52] I'm excited to see +[718.52 --> 719.32] The CES peak +[719.32 --> 719.84] From this year +[719.84 --> 720.90] Yeah +[720.90 --> 722.12] It might be kind of bananas +[722.12 --> 722.64] I know it +[722.64 --> 724.24] Heavily depends on products +[724.24 --> 725.02] Yeah +[725.02 --> 726.00] And like +[726.00 --> 726.34] Honestly +[726.34 --> 726.92] I don't really know +[726.92 --> 728.12] What to expect right now +[728.12 --> 728.48] Yeah +[728.48 --> 729.18] I don't know +[729.18 --> 729.64] How hopeful +[729.64 --> 730.14] It's looking +[730.14 --> 730.98] CES this year +[730.98 --> 732.12] Looks a little dry +[732.12 --> 732.58] But +[732.58 --> 733.62] More curved TVs +[733.62 --> 734.38] We will cover +[734.38 --> 735.66] All the interesting things +[735.66 --> 736.00] Yeah +[736.00 --> 737.34] And some boring stuff too +[737.34 --> 738.44] And some boring stuff +[738.44 --> 739.70] Yeah +[739.70 --> 740.56] Let me try a different +[740.56 --> 741.92] The Phantom Glass video +[741.92 --> 742.68] Is going to be really cool +[742.68 --> 743.42] That's going to be fun +[743.42 --> 745.90] I'm looking forward to that one +[745.90 --> 746.40] Oh +[746.40 --> 747.48] Well I zoomed in +[747.48 --> 748.28] That might be the problem +[748.28 --> 750.88] And something else +[750.88 --> 752.14] That people have to bear in mind +[752.14 --> 753.38] About our operation +[753.38 --> 754.08] In particular +[754.08 --> 755.38] When they see things like +[755.38 --> 756.24] Estimated earnings +[756.24 --> 757.66] Is that +[757.66 --> 758.90] We have seven people +[758.90 --> 759.38] Working here +[759.38 --> 760.10] Mm-hmm +[760.10 --> 761.04] So like +[761.04 --> 762.70] Anything you see +[762.70 --> 763.60] Divided by seven +[763.60 --> 764.70] Factor in that +[764.70 --> 765.46] I'm probably keeping +[765.46 --> 766.34] 90% of it +[766.34 --> 767.52] And there you go +[767.52 --> 769.24] How will he survive +[769.24 --> 773.48] I don't keep 90% of it +[773.48 --> 775.18] There's not +[775.18 --> 776.04] There's not enough +[776.04 --> 777.70] For me to keep 90% of it +[777.70 --> 778.06] No +[778.06 --> 779.28] And have the company survive +[779.28 --> 779.90] And like +[779.90 --> 780.24] This is +[780.24 --> 781.32] This is kind of crazy too +[781.32 --> 782.18] So if you go back +[782.18 --> 783.10] Two years +[783.10 --> 784.88] So here's +[784.88 --> 785.96] So here's the +[785.96 --> 786.30] The +[786.30 --> 787.24] Where it turns over +[787.24 --> 788.26] So here's where my goal +[788.26 --> 788.62] Was like +[788.62 --> 788.96] Oh yeah +[788.96 --> 789.66] So you can see +[789.66 --> 790.54] At the end of last year +[790.54 --> 791.56] That's where I got the idea +[791.56 --> 792.46] That maybe we could do +[792.46 --> 793.62] 200,000 views a day +[793.62 --> 793.86] Right +[793.86 --> 794.74] And I was like +[794.74 --> 794.96] Yeah +[794.96 --> 795.84] That should be our goal +[795.84 --> 796.36] For this year +[796.36 --> 797.40] So if you go back +[797.40 --> 798.16] The previous year +[798.16 --> 799.92] We didn't grow nearly as much +[799.92 --> 801.22] Like here's the CES bump +[801.22 --> 802.34] That actually stood +[802.34 --> 803.18] As our +[803.18 --> 804.64] All-time highest +[804.64 --> 805.36] Single day +[805.36 --> 807.58] For almost two years +[807.58 --> 808.66] Until we beat it +[808.66 --> 808.86] On November 30th +[808.86 --> 808.98] Again +[808.98 --> 809.72] Product focus +[809.72 --> 810.02] Right +[810.02 --> 811.06] Like it really matters +[811.06 --> 812.04] What gets shown there +[812.04 --> 812.18] Yeah +[812.18 --> 812.62] And we did like +[812.62 --> 813.70] 20 videos that day +[813.70 --> 814.18] Mm-hmm +[814.18 --> 815.22] And before we like +[815.22 --> 816.34] Cooled it a little bit +[816.34 --> 818.30] But that +[818.30 --> 819.96] That previous year +[819.96 --> 820.62] We did like +[820.62 --> 822.74] 130, 120 +[822.74 --> 823.84] Throughout the year +[823.84 --> 824.92] Then we grew +[824.92 --> 826.50] Kind of at the end of the year +[826.50 --> 827.42] A little bit +[827.42 --> 828.88] Quite a lot actually +[828.88 --> 830.58] But it didn't hold +[830.58 --> 831.88] The way that this has +[831.88 --> 834.34] That trend is amazing +[834.34 --> 835.78] That just means that +[835.78 --> 837.00] You guys care +[837.00 --> 837.62] Or something +[837.62 --> 838.20] Yeah +[838.20 --> 839.62] Like all the +[839.62 --> 840.38] All the cares +[840.38 --> 841.38] All the cares +[841.38 --> 842.44] Like the first half of this year +[842.44 --> 843.40] It didn't really look like +[843.40 --> 845.00] We were gonna do that much better +[845.00 --> 845.82] Than the previous year +[845.82 --> 846.74] To be perfectly honest +[846.74 --> 847.52] Like here +[847.52 --> 848.34] We can have a look +[848.34 --> 849.38] At +[849.38 --> 850.38] At what we did +[850.38 --> 851.06] The previous year +[851.06 --> 851.88] So that was +[851.88 --> 854.50] So that was +[854.50 --> 856.24] 57,000 +[856.24 --> 857.82] Or 57 million views +[857.82 --> 858.80] And then what would +[858.80 --> 859.82] 200,000 times +[859.82 --> 861.00] 365 be +[861.00 --> 862.04] That's not even +[862.04 --> 862.80] That much more +[862.80 --> 863.30] That would be what +[863.30 --> 864.22] Like 75 million +[864.22 --> 866.48] 200,000 times +[866.48 --> 869.48] I should probably +[869.48 --> 870.26] Just calculate this +[870.26 --> 871.22] I'm way too tired +[871.22 --> 873.16] My dad would have +[873.16 --> 873.82] Already been done +[873.82 --> 875.30] I know +[875.30 --> 876.10] But your dad's crazy +[876.10 --> 877.42] Yep +[877.42 --> 878.32] These bananas +[878.32 --> 881.30] 730 +[881.30 --> 882.50] Oh 73 million +[882.50 --> 883.36] Okay I was close +[883.36 --> 885.86] So 73 million +[885.86 --> 886.80] But what we actually +[886.80 --> 887.62] Did this year +[887.62 --> 890.52] So like it was +[890.52 --> 891.24] Looking like we +[891.24 --> 892.04] Weren't tracking that much +[892.04 --> 892.76] What we actually did +[892.76 --> 893.60] This year is like +[893.60 --> 894.84] 100 million +[894.84 --> 896.06] Over 100 million +[896.06 --> 898.00] That's crazy +[898.00 --> 899.44] So that's like +[899.44 --> 900.42] Yeah +[900.42 --> 901.40] 80% +[901.40 --> 902.50] 80% growth +[902.50 --> 902.82] Or something +[902.82 --> 903.42] Along those lines +[903.42 --> 905.54] Yeah it's been +[905.54 --> 906.10] It's been a heck +[906.10 --> 906.46] Of a year +[906.46 --> 906.98] I wasn't +[906.98 --> 907.82] I wasn't sure +[907.82 --> 908.40] When we started +[908.40 --> 908.96] This whole +[908.96 --> 909.72] Linus Media Group +[909.72 --> 910.22] Thing if it was +[910.22 --> 910.56] Going to work +[910.56 --> 910.98] And I had a lot +[910.98 --> 911.54] Of people tell me +[911.54 --> 912.24] It wasn't going to work +[912.24 --> 913.62] Like especially +[913.62 --> 914.40] When we first +[914.40 --> 915.16] Started trying +[915.16 --> 916.12] To do pre-rolls +[916.12 --> 916.32] Or +[916.32 --> 917.26] My favorite thing +[917.26 --> 917.70] Sorry I'm going to +[917.70 --> 917.96] Butt in +[917.96 --> 918.92] My favorite thing +[918.92 --> 919.66] Is people that I +[919.66 --> 920.64] Like very clearly +[920.64 --> 921.52] Remember having +[921.52 --> 922.38] Conversations with +[922.38 --> 923.06] That I mean +[923.06 --> 923.68] It's like a horrible +[923.68 --> 924.44] Idea and it's not +[924.44 --> 924.76] Going to work +[924.76 --> 925.18] And all this kind of +[925.18 --> 925.44] Stuff +[925.44 --> 926.52] That now if I +[926.52 --> 927.14] Bring up anything +[927.14 --> 927.64] Like that +[927.64 --> 927.92] They're like +[927.92 --> 928.40] Yeah man +[928.40 --> 929.14] Like I always knew +[929.14 --> 930.04] It would be work +[930.04 --> 930.44] And stuff +[930.44 --> 930.76] I'm like +[930.76 --> 931.44] Yeah okay +[931.44 --> 932.54] Sure +[932.54 --> 933.32] Sure dude +[933.32 --> 935.12] I think your parents +[935.12 --> 935.82] Were surprisingly +[935.82 --> 937.20] Cool about it +[937.20 --> 938.36] Not at first +[938.36 --> 938.88] Considering +[938.88 --> 940.92] Yeah but even at +[940.92 --> 941.40] First they didn't +[941.40 --> 943.12] Tell me not to do it +[943.12 --> 946.04] I think they +[946.04 --> 946.88] Advised you +[946.88 --> 947.42] Not to do it +[947.42 --> 948.44] Yeah but they +[948.44 --> 948.94] Wouldn't be like +[948.94 --> 949.64] No and they +[949.64 --> 950.18] Were supportive +[950.18 --> 950.60] And they would +[950.60 --> 951.42] Help and whatnot +[951.42 --> 952.52] Like they even +[952.52 --> 953.16] Helped us move +[953.16 --> 954.12] To the office +[954.12 --> 954.60] We're currently +[954.60 --> 955.30] By then I think +[955.30 --> 955.88] They were mostly +[955.88 --> 956.36] On board +[956.36 --> 956.70] Yeah +[956.70 --> 957.34] It was at the +[957.34 --> 958.88] Beginning when +[958.88 --> 959.78] I think your dad +[959.78 --> 960.48] Expected me to +[960.48 --> 961.02] Offer you like +[961.02 --> 961.72] Minimum wage or +[961.72 --> 962.44] Something like that +[962.44 --> 963.24] Probably +[963.24 --> 964.38] Based on what +[964.38 --> 964.88] You were getting +[964.88 --> 965.74] Paid before +[965.74 --> 966.38] Helping me at +[966.38 --> 966.86] MCIX +[966.86 --> 967.78] I can see where +[967.78 --> 968.18] He might have +[968.18 --> 968.86] Gotten the idea +[968.86 --> 969.92] If I kept that +[969.92 --> 970.80] Wage I would +[970.80 --> 971.58] Be dead now +[971.58 --> 973.06] I was only able +[973.06 --> 973.96] To eat those +[973.96 --> 975.16] Kimchi bowl things +[975.16 --> 976.22] Well he was +[976.22 --> 977.16] He was a contractor +[977.16 --> 977.82] Right so there +[977.82 --> 978.48] Was no +[978.48 --> 979.50] It was like +[979.50 --> 980.04] It was all +[980.04 --> 980.46] It was all +[980.46 --> 981.06] Piece work +[981.06 --> 982.02] So it was like +[982.02 --> 982.68] A flat rate +[982.68 --> 983.28] Per video +[983.28 --> 983.78] And like +[983.78 --> 984.32] And then this +[984.32 --> 984.80] Guy's like +[984.80 --> 985.26] Yeah let's +[985.26 --> 986.40] Constantly increase +[986.40 --> 986.90] Our production +[986.90 --> 987.48] Values +[987.48 --> 988.38] So like +[988.38 --> 988.76] But like +[988.76 --> 989.08] My +[989.08 --> 990.40] Per work +[990.40 --> 991.14] Isn't going +[991.14 --> 991.76] Up +[991.76 --> 992.56] But the +[992.56 --> 993.28] The amount +[993.28 --> 993.80] Of time it +[993.80 --> 994.12] Takes to +[994.12 --> 994.68] Complete work +[994.68 --> 995.00] Is going +[995.00 --> 995.86] Like way +[995.86 --> 996.88] Up +[996.88 --> 997.40] It was an +[997.40 --> 997.88] Investment +[997.88 --> 998.70] It was an +[998.70 --> 999.64] Important thing +[999.64 --> 1000.36] For us to do +[1000.36 --> 1001.22] I know it was +[1001.22 --> 1002.02] It was an +[1002.02 --> 1002.58] Important thing +[1002.58 --> 1003.04] For us to do +[1003.04 --> 1003.92] I think my +[1003.92 --> 1004.74] Favorite is +[1004.74 --> 1005.44] Some of the +[1005.44 --> 1006.02] Like I don't even +[1006.02 --> 1006.66] Remember any of +[1006.66 --> 1007.08] Them anymore +[1007.08 --> 1007.62] Because they've +[1007.62 --> 1008.14] All completely +[1008.14 --> 1008.72] Gone away +[1008.72 --> 1009.64] But all the +[1009.64 --> 1010.32] All the haters +[1010.32 --> 1010.94] That would post +[1010.94 --> 1011.48] On all of our +[1011.48 --> 1011.86] Videos +[1011.86 --> 1013.20] About how +[1013.20 --> 1013.72] Linus +[1013.72 --> 1014.58] Linus +[1014.58 --> 1015.16] Media +[1015.16 --> 1015.48] Garbage +[1015.48 --> 1015.96] There was that +[1015.96 --> 1017.14] One main guy +[1017.14 --> 1017.76] Yeah there was +[1017.76 --> 1018.52] Like that one guy +[1018.52 --> 1018.88] I don't remember +[1018.88 --> 1019.24] Who he was +[1019.24 --> 1019.82] But like every +[1019.82 --> 1020.80] Time was like +[1020.80 --> 1021.74] And I hate that +[1021.74 --> 1022.48] Slick guy +[1022.48 --> 1023.26] Blah blah blah +[1023.26 --> 1023.92] He's going to be +[1023.92 --> 1024.78] Out on the street +[1024.78 --> 1025.68] In six months +[1025.68 --> 1026.60] Without a penny +[1026.60 --> 1027.42] To his name +[1027.42 --> 1029.68] And like I hate him +[1029.68 --> 1030.82] And Linus Media +[1030.82 --> 1031.46] Group is going to +[1031.46 --> 1032.08] Shut down +[1032.08 --> 1032.56] And you're going to +[1032.56 --> 1033.22] Have to go back +[1033.22 --> 1034.28] To your real job +[1034.28 --> 1034.74] And I'm just like +[1034.74 --> 1035.06] You know what +[1035.06 --> 1036.04] This is a real job +[1036.04 --> 1036.46] Actually +[1036.46 --> 1036.94] Yeah +[1036.94 --> 1037.70] I think we've +[1037.70 --> 1038.62] Demonstrated at this +[1038.62 --> 1039.64] Point that yeah +[1039.64 --> 1040.46] This is a real job +[1040.46 --> 1041.96] I usually bust my ass +[1041.96 --> 1042.88] Pretty hard at most +[1042.88 --> 1043.44] Jobs +[1043.44 --> 1044.36] I probably work harder +[1044.36 --> 1044.92] At this one +[1044.92 --> 1045.76] Than any other one +[1045.76 --> 1046.10] I have +[1046.10 --> 1047.36] Yeah +[1047.36 --> 1048.44] Me too +[1048.44 --> 1048.82] But I mean +[1048.82 --> 1049.42] That's the +[1049.42 --> 1050.22] I mean that's what +[1050.22 --> 1050.90] Being passionate about +[1050.90 --> 1051.50] Something will do +[1051.50 --> 1051.90] Yeah +[1051.90 --> 1052.68] I mean it's +[1052.68 --> 1053.28] I'm not complaining +[1053.28 --> 1053.98] I'm just saying +[1053.98 --> 1055.16] To be clear +[1055.16 --> 1055.96] Like yeah +[1055.96 --> 1056.72] We're not just +[1056.72 --> 1057.42] Straight up in it +[1057.42 --> 1057.84] For the money +[1057.84 --> 1059.10] None of us are PewDiePie +[1059.10 --> 1059.86] No +[1059.86 --> 1060.52] We're not making +[1060.52 --> 1061.48] Four million a year +[1061.48 --> 1062.06] Or +[1062.06 --> 1064.16] That's just stupid +[1064.16 --> 1064.64] Yeah +[1064.64 --> 1065.76] That's incredible +[1065.76 --> 1066.46] Amounts of money +[1066.46 --> 1067.54] But +[1067.54 --> 1068.48] Yeah +[1068.48 --> 1069.46] And in fact I think +[1069.46 --> 1070.38] We're not +[1070.38 --> 1071.38] We're not pulling a +[1071.38 --> 1072.42] A notch +[1072.42 --> 1073.12] And buying that +[1073.12 --> 1074.58] 70 million dollar +[1074.58 --> 1075.24] Mansion or whatever +[1075.24 --> 1075.80] He's did +[1075.80 --> 1077.20] I think every single +[1077.20 --> 1077.80] Person here +[1077.80 --> 1078.44] Could still make +[1078.44 --> 1079.14] More somewhere else +[1079.14 --> 1082.40] I still have offers +[1082.40 --> 1082.84] For more +[1082.84 --> 1083.76] In other places +[1083.76 --> 1084.88] Yeah I could probably +[1084.88 --> 1085.84] Walk back into my old +[1085.84 --> 1086.52] Job tomorrow +[1086.52 --> 1087.58] If I really felt like it +[1087.58 --> 1089.18] Like yeah I'm back +[1089.18 --> 1089.56] For good +[1089.56 --> 1091.04] I want a desk +[1091.04 --> 1091.96] With four monitors +[1091.96 --> 1092.50] On it again +[1092.50 --> 1093.76] The two most recent +[1093.76 --> 1094.22] People +[1094.22 --> 1095.94] Well one of them +[1095.94 --> 1096.72] Could have not +[1096.72 --> 1097.70] Left what he was doing +[1097.70 --> 1099.00] And been making more +[1099.00 --> 1099.42] Yeah +[1099.42 --> 1099.94] And the other one +[1099.94 --> 1100.58] Could have continued +[1100.58 --> 1101.20] What they were doing +[1101.20 --> 1101.76] And then eventually +[1101.76 --> 1102.54] Been making more +[1102.54 --> 1103.10] Yeah +[1103.10 --> 1104.58] I don't know +[1104.58 --> 1105.22] It's fun though +[1105.22 --> 1105.92] I mean it's good +[1105.92 --> 1107.08] Yeah and like +[1107.08 --> 1107.40] What +[1107.40 --> 1107.92] What +[1107.92 --> 1108.84] The other +[1108.84 --> 1109.18] I'm not +[1109.18 --> 1110.04] Trying not to use names +[1110.04 --> 1110.66] Because I don't know +[1110.66 --> 1111.24] Yeah +[1111.24 --> 1112.14] Like I don't know +[1112.14 --> 1112.88] How much we should talk +[1112.88 --> 1113.44] About people's +[1113.44 --> 1114.82] Personal financial situations +[1114.82 --> 1115.12] Yeah +[1115.12 --> 1115.82] Probably not at all +[1115.82 --> 1116.72] One of the +[1116.72 --> 1118.28] Fairly recent ones +[1118.28 --> 1119.20] When he was talking +[1119.20 --> 1120.14] About how +[1120.14 --> 1122.52] Like the happiness +[1122.52 --> 1123.16] Level thing +[1123.16 --> 1123.88] Yeah +[1123.88 --> 1124.96] That's a huge deal +[1124.96 --> 1125.64] Yeah +[1125.64 --> 1126.08] And that's like +[1126.08 --> 1127.62] A very well documented +[1127.62 --> 1128.42] Huge deal +[1128.42 --> 1129.50] Like how making more money +[1129.50 --> 1130.62] Doesn't necessarily +[1130.62 --> 1131.30] Yeah +[1131.30 --> 1132.74] Pass a certain degree +[1132.74 --> 1133.16] And like +[1133.16 --> 1133.98] Well it's the +[1133.98 --> 1135.00] Diminishing returns thing +[1135.00 --> 1136.12] So it doesn't just shut off +[1136.12 --> 1136.96] But like you have to make +[1136.96 --> 1138.90] Such astronomically more +[1138.90 --> 1140.94] To get any real improvement +[1140.94 --> 1141.54] In happiness +[1141.54 --> 1142.66] That it just doesn't +[1142.66 --> 1143.62] Really make a lot of sense +[1143.62 --> 1144.50] And there's like +[1144.50 --> 1145.84] Other things that should improve +[1145.84 --> 1147.08] Like quality life improvements +[1147.08 --> 1147.54] And stuff +[1147.54 --> 1148.44] Well if you hate +[1148.44 --> 1149.44] Your freaking job +[1149.44 --> 1151.22] Minor quality life improvements +[1151.22 --> 1152.38] Are probably not going to result +[1152.38 --> 1153.10] In you no longer +[1153.10 --> 1154.38] Hating your freaking job +[1154.38 --> 1155.98] So I don't know +[1155.98 --> 1157.34] I think there's value in that +[1157.34 --> 1158.44] Aw we've got someone +[1158.44 --> 1159.60] Saying this is getting depressing +[1159.60 --> 1160.74] We're not meaning to be depressing +[1160.74 --> 1161.50] We love our jobs +[1161.50 --> 1162.90] That's the point +[1162.90 --> 1163.56] Yeah we have to +[1163.56 --> 1164.44] Work really hard +[1164.44 --> 1165.12] And bust our butts +[1165.12 --> 1166.08] And that's fine +[1166.08 --> 1167.06] But the +[1167.06 --> 1168.46] Yeah the moral of the story +[1168.46 --> 1169.12] Is when you wake up +[1169.12 --> 1169.46] In the morning +[1169.46 --> 1170.40] And want to go to work +[1170.40 --> 1171.14] Busting your butt +[1171.14 --> 1172.00] And working extra hours +[1172.00 --> 1172.64] Don't really matter +[1172.64 --> 1174.76] Like I'll come home +[1174.76 --> 1175.72] And then be like +[1175.72 --> 1177.30] Oh time to relax +[1177.30 --> 1178.10] Time to +[1178.10 --> 1179.60] Answer messages +[1179.60 --> 1180.22] On the forum +[1180.22 --> 1181.10] Trying to help people +[1181.10 --> 1182.74] With like broken account problems +[1182.74 --> 1183.58] Yeah that's what amounts +[1183.58 --> 1184.24] To relaxing +[1184.24 --> 1185.36] Yeah but like it is +[1185.36 --> 1185.86] Kind of +[1185.86 --> 1186.24] Yeah +[1186.24 --> 1187.54] Like it's a slow down +[1187.54 --> 1188.16] And it's fine +[1188.16 --> 1188.92] And I don't mind it +[1188.92 --> 1189.54] Kind of work +[1189.54 --> 1190.70] But like it's the kind of thing +[1190.70 --> 1191.60] We would have done anyway +[1191.60 --> 1192.14] Yeah +[1192.14 --> 1193.46] Like go hang out on a forum +[1193.46 --> 1194.52] And answer some questions +[1194.52 --> 1195.84] It's like we already did that crap +[1195.84 --> 1196.58] Before we +[1196.58 --> 1197.18] Exactly +[1197.18 --> 1198.18] Owned the domain +[1198.18 --> 1199.68] That the questions were coming in on +[1199.68 --> 1200.76] Yeah so it's like +[1200.76 --> 1202.02] It's not really that big of a deal +[1202.02 --> 1203.34] I don't know +[1203.34 --> 1205.18] Shout out to the moderators +[1205.18 --> 1206.56] They've been doing a really good job lately +[1206.56 --> 1207.88] Welcome to the team +[1207.88 --> 1208.52] Blade of Grass +[1208.52 --> 1212.86] Alright well +[1212.86 -->

Peace guys +[1224.62 --> 1225.50] Bye everyone +[1225.50 --> 1226.40] See you in the new year +[1226.40 --> 1226.86] Thanks for +[1226.86 --> 1227.80] Hanging out with us +[1227.80 --> 1228.38] In the after party +[1228.38 --> 1228.98] It's gonna be weird +[1228.98 --> 1230.24] This 2015 next time +[1230.24 --> 1230.78] I know +[1230.78 --> 1232.94] It's gonna be all like +[1232.94 --> 1234.38] I'm gonna be older +[1234.38 --> 1236.12] I'm gonna be 30 next year +[1236.12 --> 1236.32] No +[1236.32 --> 1237.16] I'm not good +[1237.16 --> 1237.78] Thank goodness +[1237.78 --> 1239.70] 29 +[1239.70 --> 1241.02] Yeah I was like +[1241.02 --> 1243.28] How did you just get older that much +[1243.28 --> 1245.14] Like you didn't even have a birthday +[1245.14 --> 1246.72] How did that happen

really like that Facebook has given us an official verified page +[6.16 --> 11.76] whoa now that was a while ago Twitter apparently reserves it for like people +[11.76 --> 16.44] that their employees notice yeah that's pretty much it like I know people that +[16.44 --> 21.68] are verified that have like 2,000 followers yep yeah at Twitter there +[21.68 --> 25.44] doesn't appear to be any kind of actual procedure for it nope yeah I knew that +[25.44 --> 30.24] yeah so like if one of their followers knows some dude and he's like oh yeah +[30.24 --> 35.76] that's you okay like that's honestly one of the ways that you can get verified the +[35.76 --> 41.10] official policy is that aside from being like basically people who are at risk of +[41.10 --> 46.26] being impersonated and I would argue that anyone you have been I'm sorry +[46.26 --> 50.40] considering we have yeah I've reported plenty of impersonation on Twitter and +[50.40 --> 54.90] they don't care and then one of the other things is you have to use the social +[54.90 --> 60.12] platform correctly like in the way like first so Twitter is linked to other +[60.12 --> 63.78] social platforms maybe that's part of the issue +[63.78 --> 68.82] yeah we know why because Twitter is supposed to be about stream of +[68.82 --> 73.08] consciousness so like what I'm doing right now whereas I don't do that I +[73.08 --> 78.36] don't really do that whenever I think you're like terrible jokes they go on +[78.36 --> 90.12] Twitter and whatever I'm like complaining about something like my favorite Twitter +[90.12 --> 96.00] posts that I do are the ones where I'm having where I'm having like some random +[96.00 --> 101.16] conversation with Yvonne and she burns me or I burn her like those are those are +[101.16 --> 105.96] my favorites by far because it's just like yeah that happens yes I'm that +[105.96 --> 114.54] awful and yes she's that awful and that's our life together we don't have +[114.54 --> 120.10] to do it anymore okay did they just kill it or what I essentially okay that's +[120.10 --> 125.04] fine so I think I'm not allowed to go shirtless on twitch so hopefully this nip +[125.04 --> 129.54] slip here is not a big deal if I'm using it to change into a twitch shirt I think it's +[129.54 --> 132.66] can I get away with it I think it technically is a big deal because +[132.66 --> 136.30] they're going with the like yeah I know guys can't do it either thing right +[136.30 --> 143.10] which is probably fair party bought which doesn't exist okay now hold on a second +[143.10 --> 149.78] because I saw a lot of I saw a lot of discussion about guys streaming shirtless +[149.78 --> 155.22] and girls streaming with like just cleavage hanging out all over the place +[155.22 --> 163.10] what if a guy streamed with cleavage hanging out all over the place so a v-neck yeah like a super +[163.10 --> 171.62] low-cut v-neck on a dude is that considered erotic to anyone I don't know to women like if there are +[171.62 --> 178.86] any women watching I'm sure it's erotic to someone it might be yeah I need to know like if the dudes fit +[178.86 --> 184.54] I'm sure it's erotic yeah but like what if it's a fairly tight fitting shirt and the dudes fit maybe +[184.54 --> 190.18] it looks okay well tell me this like does it have to you know does it have to be in because is it okay +[190.18 --> 195.14] is it an intention thing or what you're actually doing like if your intention is to be kind of gross +[195.14 --> 201.92] hard to like if you put on a chest toupee like 70s style chest toupee and wear a v-neck the chest hair +[201.92 --> 206.78] yeah like is that is that still considered attractive I don't know are you obviously +[206.78 --> 211.16] just trying to be gross and I don't think it's a matter of what's attractive it's a matter of what +[211.16 --> 217.62] they consider decent yeah I've got people saying that v-neck looks stupid I know it's not the point +[217.62 --> 223.98] the conversation we're having um like I think certain v-necks are fine I don't like the like +[223.98 --> 231.28] super low ones I actually prefer the shirts where it's a very shallow v-neck just because I like that +[231.28 --> 236.60] next one more all right brookla says anything is going to be erotic to someone and this is a very +[236.60 --> 246.76] good point um mcdude says or mike dude says uh why are people such prudes well because someone else +[246.76 --> 254.36] who complains really loudly is an even bigger prude and the prudes because the internet is like +[254.36 --> 260.66] mainstream now yeah I mean and I you know what I kind of get it like if you're trying to maintain a +[260.66 --> 266.02] somewhat professional website you don't want like shirtless dudes yeah you don't want cleavage and +[266.02 --> 271.72] shirtless dudes everywhere because that's not professional and that's not you can call it prude or +[271.72 --> 276.44] you can call it whatever you want but it what it isn't is professional you know it's the classic no +[276.44 --> 282.70] shirt no shoes no service that's the way the world works and what about no pants yeah like there are +[282.70 --> 290.20] plenty of websites that are not twitch where you can go to look at boobs in streams so yeah +[290.20 --> 296.86] live streams either or or or presumably having not looked into this I wouldn't be an expert on it +[296.86 --> 304.26] presumably not boobs in streams so apparently Linus and Luke should do a WAN show in latex +[304.26 --> 309.66] I will be doing a uh a body paint upper body episode soon that shipped by the way +[309.66 --> 314.72] so okay yeah so it's not here yet have we figured out my costume for the girls thing +[314.72 --> 323.10] is it showing up yeah if you don't get the things to then just go to uh let's go to the shop there +[323.10 --> 326.98] that's what I was gonna do to get the things yeah yeah just don't want to wait two weeks for damn +[326.98 --> 333.16] Amazon yeah well it's Christmas season who knows if it'll even show up until after Christmas we're +[333.16 --> 339.00] already in December yeah we're gonna have to get it locally apparently people are saying yet twitch +[339.00 --> 345.94] has insta-partnered with known porn stars okay you could but twitch would probably insta-partner with +[345.94 --> 351.40] any highly recognizable person as long as they're using the site within the guidelines yeah who cares if +[351.40 --> 356.52] they're a porn star yeah I don't see why that matters not really relevant yeah pretty much +[356.52 --> 362.56] um twitch states that they want to keep the website about the games and not what people are or are not +[362.56 --> 370.90] wearing and yeah I totally get that twitch doesn't need to be you know live cams rs central I mean yes +[370.90 --> 377.06] they're live and there are cameras involved I think you know what I meant yes let's keep it gaming +[377.06 --> 383.16] focused right guys apparently I shouldn't get glossy body paint it's worse to remove thank you for the +[383.16 --> 389.84] pro tip I already bought it I have no idea what kind it is I'm not a body paint expert no body +[389.84 --> 394.98] chocolate on the other hand I could probably tell you guys a thing or two industrial fondues +[394.98 --> 404.20] yeah fondues body chocolate fondues for cucumbers would chocolate cucumber be good probably not +[404.20 --> 409.02] probably not no chocolate doesn't go with everything what are we even talking about +[409.02 --> 415.98] yeah it's like water and water yeah chocolate rain +[415.98 --> 421.94] we're saying I should bust when you're talking about me singing or whatever they're like +[421.94 --> 426.34] nick bust into the room i was like chocolate rain i was hoping you were gonna do something like it +[426.34 --> 431.54] doesn't matter but that's why i yelled your name oh oh you yelled my name yeah i didn't say that +[431.54 --> 435.72] loud because i didn't want it to peak the mic i was like half listening for the sponsor spots +[435.72 --> 439.14] yeah yeah apparently it would be watery yeah it would be watery +[439.14 --> 447.78] this was a heck of a week so we released oil cool part three we released curved surround part two +[447.78 --> 454.04] the final the final one of that for something and tomorrow actually the number of people who were +[454.04 --> 462.72] butthurt at you about saying maybe we're gonna have so many oh man yeah that is a butthurt fist +[462.72 --> 477.58] um i almost shortened it but i was like no yeah okay so anyway he was just teasing just teasing +[477.58 --> 484.00] and not just teasing like teasing upcoming content just teasing it is coming out tomorrow night so +[484.00 --> 491.22] tomorrow night whole room water cooling part one will be up and i cannot hype this video enough i think +[491.22 --> 494.62] i've heard him say offline behind camera that he thinks it might be one of the best things we've +[494.62 --> 498.82] ever made i think it might be the best thing we've ever made ed still says don't hype it up too much +[498.82 --> 504.00] yeah ed says not to hype it but he's done a great job of it and i thought we're a hype machine +[504.00 --> 509.54] yeah i thought it was great hopefully we don't ubisoft this hopefully it's actually great yeah it +[509.54 --> 514.12] better be it is great you haven't seen it yet right no oh yeah it's it's done it's done it's +[514.12 --> 519.28] uploaded it would have been awesome if he had ubisoft it and like she's coming in just like eyes and mouth +[519.28 --> 522.52] bring air on minus his face for like one frame +[522.52 --> 530.34] that would actually be pretty funny so i can't promise how quickly the additional episodes are +[530.34 --> 536.06] coming but we have all the footage we need for episodes two and three they're just extremely +[536.06 --> 541.62] time consuming to make and we still need vo for two and we still need voiceovers uh for some of them +[541.62 --> 549.64] and then it's not strictly speaking done because not only did we never finish some things like the +[549.64 --> 554.18] vinyl decals on the wall stuff didn't we or something happened no no no no no um but we've +[554.18 --> 558.54] had we had some challenges with putting quick disconnect fittings on all the systems so we have +[558.54 --> 564.64] to finish off all the systems so they can actually be disconnected from the whole room loop um and then +[564.64 --> 569.24] we still have to put some vinyl decals on the wall and the power supply for the fans for the roof +[569.24 --> 575.42] mounted radiator died after like a couple days because it was just some cheapo like it doesn't +[575.42 --> 581.04] matter made in china like yeah but the cool thing about it and maybe we'll cover this in more depth +[581.04 --> 586.78] in the video is it's working without fans yeah yeah yeah one thing okay i didn't realize that there was +[586.78 --> 592.52] like cool decals and stuff inside the box of the loot crate thing and the outside is like super plain +[592.52 --> 600.12] and the inside's like cool stuff anyways oh can you like did he you did oh that's really look how tightly packed +[600.12 --> 603.88] everything is and i was like does it unfold and become something that's what i was wondering because +[603.88 --> 609.64] you can see inside the fold oh it totally does yeah there's a cut line here oh what what does it do +[610.60 --> 617.88] share document enjoy i don't know because there's stuff under these folds in there you can see yeah here we +[617.88 --> 623.32] should we should discover it while i'm talking but um like you're talking about putting the extra +[623.32 --> 628.76] vinyls and stuff on the wall like aren't we moving soon i've got people asking for please no please more +[628.76 --> 634.52] nips please more nips yeah not not today but i won't promise it'll never happen which is gonna ban us +[634.52 --> 640.92] yeah twitch is gonna i'll get banned while i rep my twitch shirt oh my god i think there's other stuff in +[640.92 --> 647.80] here did we not even notice all the stuff way to go lou hey man you were looking at it too are you a +[647.80 --> 652.60] pirate or a ninja what does this say this month's theme is battle oh it has like a whole little +[652.60 --> 658.44] like thing that goes along with it and there's like there's like little mega man and like ryu like +[658.44 --> 665.56] pop out dudes that you can stand up and oh and maybe it's something to do is oh my goodness i get it +[665.56 --> 672.84] i get it oh that's so sick it's a fight background oh nice so you put your little like dudes and they +[672.84 --> 677.96] like stand on it oh i totally get it that's awesome i can't believe we missed this we're going to pay a +[677.96 --> 685.16] lot more attention to that kind of stuff yeah and they screwed up the first one spot there's a freaking +[685.16 --> 692.60] street fighter arcade edition full game oh there's a game code oh i don't want to show that there's a game +[692.60 --> 702.44] code in here i'll show it like this there's a game code free game download street fighter 4 arcade +[702.44 --> 708.28] this like folds out like way bigger than i originally showed it so fair this was supposed +[708.28 --> 713.48] to be an unboxing spot so i don't think they expected you to like get it perfect all of these +[713.48 --> 718.68] things well they probably expected us to find the stuff that was in the box when i saw the paper stuff +[718.68 --> 726.04] i was like oh it's just ads and it's none of its ads yeah literally none of it is ads uh 50 off lichdom +[726.04 --> 733.64] that's a pretty big discount i wouldn't consider that an ad that's cool huh so i wonder how much +[733.64 --> 739.00] street and we suck is on steam it's probably like i don't think it's that expensive is it 20 bucks +[739.00 --> 745.16] 20 dollars shut up 20 value free game download so you pay 1337 you get all that cool stuff and you +[745.16 --> 751.32] get a 20 dollar game yeah that's pretty insane yeah but you're a sales guy so we can't listen to you +[751.32 --> 760.60] yeah eeeew ew business yeah all right i thought you were checking on steam i want to see if it's +[760.60 --> 764.04] actually 20 dollars because like it it might have been 20 dollars when they printed those and it might +[764.04 --> 770.92] be like two dollars now we'll see steam i'm i would check but i'm waiting for my uh my text to input +[770.92 --> 777.08] really yeah i was it's it's loaded now i'm gonna find it before your wi-fi is so much better than +[777.08 --> 784.28] mega rex what hot spot it's 30 dollars it's 30 bucks oh my god it's 29.99 we're in canada so maybe +[784.28 --> 790.60] it's like maybe it's 1999 in the us interesting um i already got an email from our rep back just being +[790.60 --> 796.20] like my team told me we're seeing a lot of awesome traffic to the site okay cool so apparently i screw +[796.20 --> 800.84] everything up and i still succeed well seriously when i saw the papers in the bottom i was like +[800.84 --> 805.96] oh here's junk and then it's like all awesome everyone who's still in the stream go over and +[805.96 --> 811.88] check it out non-arcade edition i think is 20 bucks so they screwed up they screwed up and they put it +[811.88 --> 821.64] to 20 value but it's the arcade edition oh this is this is ultra sorry wait what ultra oh is this ultra +[822.84 --> 829.08] that's the arcade edition can buy this oh i get it i'm looking at ultra i might be looking at the wrong +[829.08 --> 834.20] thing oh yeah yeah i think arcade edition is like the version before ultra it is you don't have one +[834.20 --> 840.04] of the expansions or whatever yeah okay okay so where's our key edition i don't know if you can buy +[840.04 --> 847.16] it i don't know it's still street fighter 4. there's like 18 versions of street yeah i just figured that +[847.16 --> 852.76] out that's super weird ultra mega wait we can't use mega that's mega man and there's also mega man swag +[852.76 --> 860.44] ultra super super mega man helmet man that thing's cool like i'm a huge mega man man so mega buster yeah +[860.44 --> 866.44] and it's like not not super cheap and crappy either oh it's not in the box like it's fairly +[866.44 --> 872.44] well constructed oh that's cool wow yeah that's actually has some weight to it yeah here's the stand +[872.44 --> 879.72] okay well i'm gonna go home and eat yay it's been a really long day do you want to go get food +[882.52 --> 888.84] do you want to go get food maybe let me check with the fam yeah should we go to the place yeah +[889.64 --> 894.04] do the stuff and then i'll stream after i'm streaming tonight for anyone who's wondering should we should +[894.04 --> 899.88] we stream lowbie instances i don't know someone asks when will linus read the comments +[899.88 --> 907.40] i love those questions i love those like you never answer any of my tweets that's my favorite +[907.40 --> 912.44] tweet to ever see um it's like well i'm answering this one not sure what you wanted to know +[913.96 --> 923.00] this is the one i happened to see people are asking for vlogs no man no dude no bro i do vlogs +[923.00 --> 928.76] vlogs of what i do vlogs whenever i do something that i think is particularly interesting vlogs of what +[928.76 --> 933.88] probably have like moving vlogs and like yeah we'll probably do moving vlogs yeah well i think +[933.88 --> 937.88] some of that could be interesting yeah how we plan to set up like the editor's room and stuff could we +[937.88 --> 943.56] actually be cool breaking certain things and networking new things and yeah networking's gonna +[943.56 --> 949.32] be really cool yeah um you might be getting that thing that you're talking about the switch we've +[949.32 --> 954.60] basically which switch you weren't you you expressed interest a while back in a 10 gigabit switch +[954.60 --> 960.84] yeah um it's not that unaffordable anymore i was i was shopping a little while ago and i think um net +[960.84 --> 968.60] gear has a 12 port 10 gigabit ethernet so like an rj45 switch for 900 or something along those lines so +[968.60 --> 977.00] we could go 10 gig at every editing station and uh to like a 20 gig backbone between the main switch and +[977.00 --> 981.80] the server and i'm interested in who knows if we're going to do that really depends on what's available in +[981.80 --> 985.96] the area but i'm interested in a load balancing appliance if we have to go that route because +[985.96 --> 990.84] as far as i've been able to tell so far internet in that area is not great i'm assuming it's because +[991.72 --> 1000.52] various companies that have warehouses aren't super worried about super fast internet yeah yeah i'm i'm +[1000.52 --> 1004.76] hoping we can get something that's at least a touch better than what we have here and if we can't then +[1004.76 --> 1012.76] we'll just have to live with it probably not yeah here keep all this stuff with the loot crate okay +[1012.76 --> 1018.84] i'll just you know put it on my desk yeah dude since you guys steal my office to do this show yeah dude +[1019.96 --> 1026.28] halo drop ship minifigure he doesn't even care i'm just gonna ignore that yeah +[1026.28 --> 1033.72] so it like explains everything what does that say um i think this is ads this is that okay but it's +[1033.72 --> 1040.28] not all ads yeah this is cool uh like an article about halo or something i like articles i miss +[1040.28 --> 1044.68] reading things about games i miss old gaming magazines there's like an interview about uh +[1044.68 --> 1049.64] assassin's creed from yeah with the creators of assassin's creed and you know what i've been doing a +[1049.64 --> 1054.44] little bit more research on assassin's creed i'm still staying away from it for now um unity you mean yes +[1054.44 --> 1060.12] sorry um but knowing me i'll play it eventually but my my whole thing that i've been doing a little +[1060.12 --> 1066.60] bit research on is um like what the actual game is about not the performance issues because i have +[1066.60 --> 1072.68] a feeling they'll eventually iron out the performance issues enough that it's somewhat playable um and +[1072.68 --> 1078.36] apparently the game by itself is actually pretty damn good and especially the environments and art and +[1078.36 --> 1082.04] stuff in the game is really good if you can freaking run it you hear the next one's in right +[1082.04 --> 1085.96] or in london yeah i heard that that leaked we should have talked about that on the show yeah +[1086.52 --> 1092.04] it was in there i need to spend a little bit more time on uh on narrowing down the topics for +[1092.04 --> 1097.48] the show i think because um this week was kind of a mess this week was kind of all over the place +[1098.28 --> 1104.20] the entire workflow this week was kind of oh i know this week was a total disaster for everyone +[1104.20 --> 1108.76] watching this is more of an internal discussion but you guys can hear about it if you want yeah i burned +[1108.76 --> 1115.64] probably 20 hours on the video that's coming out sunday night um i burned the majority of monday +[1115.64 --> 1120.76] just handing badges out and like the one that's coming out sunday night i don't even know how many +[1120.76 --> 1125.32] of you are going to be interested in it it's a video about a thousand dollar wireless access point +[1125.96 --> 1134.76] um and basically my my original plan i had this like amazing plan to like he just got through some +[1134.76 --> 1141.24] glitch in someone's system evidently um uh meraki access point it wasn't the glitch i know it wasn't +[1141.24 --> 1146.28] a glitch but i'm sure they didn't intend for you to have one so whatever you want to call it he got +[1146.28 --> 1153.96] maybe not but it wasn't the glitch he got like a 700 meraki like enterprise grade cloud managed access +[1153.96 --> 1159.00] point i recently got this thousand dollar ruckus one and then i was going to take some high-end consumer +[1159.00 --> 1166.04] grade stuff and i was going to like go full-on wi-fi testing and like i had so many issues with +[1166.04 --> 1172.28] it that wi-fi testing is redonk you i already knew that but i learned it's more i did learn a lot +[1172.28 --> 1177.56] and i have a methodology now that i think i could make work quite easily in the future but i need +[1178.20 --> 1182.44] sorry i saw you running around doing stuff that made a lot of sense yeah i need i need different gear +[1182.44 --> 1187.80] for it though and this is going to come as a bit of a sort of shocker i think i need a macbook pro +[1187.80 --> 1195.40] yeah because macbook pro is the only laptop that i'm aware of that has three spatial stream ac wireless +[1195.40 --> 1203.00] and so for me to actually get the most out of a three spatial stream ac wireless access point i need +[1203.00 --> 1209.64] a client that i can move around easily to different locations to do range and obstacle testing so instead +[1209.64 --> 1214.44] i had to use a phone so i used the droid turbo because that's the one that holds the record for me +[1214.44 --> 1222.04] for at my house i have 100 megabit down uh internet and on n wireless that's the one that does the +[1222.04 --> 1228.44] best throughput with um with the thousand dollar ap so that's the one that i decided to use for my testing +[1228.44 --> 1235.40] i learned a lot about using iperf in the best possible way but there's still a lot more that needs to be done +[1235.40 --> 1240.84] like the problem with iperf and the problem i was running into with my testing is i had to basically wait for a run +[1240.84 --> 1247.24] where i was kind of getting consistent results because like a car would go by yeah um where's +[1247.24 --> 1253.56] the way speed test works like speedtest.net is it throws away the outliers at the top and the bottom +[1253.56 --> 1259.32] in order to give you that number of this is your typical speed whereas iperf unless you've got uh like +[1259.32 --> 1264.28] something like and i haven't tried jperf yet but i will just as part of the learning process next time i +[1264.28 --> 1269.24] tackle this if i do the problem with iperf is it just gives you a raw average of however long you +[1269.24 --> 1275.00] run the test and i to my knowledge there isn't an easy way to export it at least from the the phone +[1275.00 --> 1282.28] version that i'm using yeah so i need a better client hardware i need a better client software layer +[1282.28 --> 1286.52] so that i can draw more meaningful results from it but i was able to get something that +[1286.52 --> 1293.08] is somewhat meaningful especially in my load testing so wireless access points are not just about max +[1293.08 --> 1297.08] speed from the access point to one client because that's not how anybody uses them nope and they're +[1297.08 --> 1302.76] not about maximum range either because it's it's relevant but it's not necessarily how most people +[1302.76 --> 1310.28] use them so i did a load test so like a stress test where i i think i ended up with six or seven clients +[1310.92 --> 1319.64] all of which were streaming video or some other kind of super intensive content use um and then i basically +[1319.64 --> 1326.68] tried to bring um the enterprise grade one and then a consumer grade one um to their knees and see +[1326.68 --> 1331.88] how they held up and the enterprise one is just if it costs three times as much as the consumer grade one +[1331.88 --> 1337.24] it more than justifies its price in that use case scenario but what they said a lot of people won't have +[1337.24 --> 1343.88] it in that use case scenario yes so if you had a um like if you had an extremely busy household where lots +[1343.88 --> 1349.00] of people are running off wireless it could make a lot of sense or it could completely not because you +[1349.00 --> 1354.04] might be better off getting a lot of more inexpensive consumer grade access points and then positioning +[1354.04 --> 1361.16] them all over the place so if you want like a blanket of wireless over the entire building that can handle +[1361.16 --> 1367.40] seemingly unlimited load like this thing is awesome then enterprise grade well the the are we calling it +[1367.40 --> 1374.68] what what ap we're talking about yeah it's the r700 yeah okay so that exact model ap is what um a mutual +[1374.68 --> 1380.76] friend of nick and i uses he's an it manager at a school i'm trying to be as vague as possible he uses +[1380.76 --> 1386.84] r700s all over the place and for the entire school with all these kids hammering it all day they're fine +[1387.40 --> 1392.36] yeah so like i knew before you started doing this testing i was like the r700 is gonna smash what was it +[1392.36 --> 1398.44] you were you were you were you were hoping i was i was hoping that the cisco meraki would do better +[1398.44 --> 1407.64] than the r700 so that i could trade and then because somehow i wasn't going to figure out that the r700 +[1407.64 --> 1412.92] is better than the meraki well i was like if he goes through his raw testing and it like wins in +[1412.92 --> 1418.76] whatever scenarios he's doing then then wouldn't you be happy with it why did you want the ruckus +[1418.76 --> 1425.80] is there something you know that i don't about it uh it's a little bit i i like the localized +[1425.80 --> 1431.72] manageability i don't i don't like the cloud stuff that cisco meraki is doing uh i find it more simple +[1431.72 --> 1438.60] because i find the cisco meraki interface is designed around someone in a use case more like our mutual +[1438.60 --> 1444.44] friends where they're running a whole bunch of these ap's i want one all the main menus are like here's your +[1444.44 --> 1448.28] google map style map plot all the points where your ap's are i'm like i don't have +[1448.28 --> 1455.40] a campus i have one small basement suite like i don't need this i just want to manage it and like +[1455.40 --> 1460.36] if you're having some problem or if i'm offline for whatever reason i still want to be able to access +[1460.36 --> 1467.88] my ap and there was that funny thing where um some of my clients didn't support forcing 2.4 gigahertz +[1467.88 --> 1473.24] and while every other access point that i was originally going to include in my test one from ubiquity +[1473.24 --> 1480.52] um a couple from linksys anyway every other one supported splitting out the ss splitting out 2.4 +[1480.52 --> 1485.48] gigahertz and 5 gigahertz into separate ssids so i could manually connect to them separately +[1485.48 --> 1492.44] the meraki doesn't didn't even support forcing 2.4 gigahertz on an ssid until luke called them +[1492.44 --> 1497.24] honestly the dude on the phone was like super nice yeah and they were really fast they returned the call +[1497.24 --> 1501.88] really fast yeah they picked up really quickly they solved the problem really quickly and they're +[1501.88 --> 1510.12] really nice no not once i don't think so real real dude and like fixed it right away but he had to add +[1510.12 --> 1515.88] a button to luke's cloud management interface to force 2.4 gigahertz why is this button not in here +[1515.88 --> 1521.32] already yeah it's cool they're able to add it yeah but i shouldn't have to call support for a basic +[1521.32 --> 1526.76] feature like that i think part of the reason is that uh that ap that you have isn't like isn't +[1526.76 --> 1532.12] actually their highest end ap so it's kind of like bridging between enterprise and consumer so i +[1532.12 --> 1536.04] think they're trying to help people like more like i wouldn't say consumer but like small business yeah +[1536.04 --> 1540.44] yeah yeah so i think they're trying to help people not screw up considering that option exists i'm sure +[1540.44 --> 1544.52] on the even higher version it's probably there because they're expecting more of an ip administration +[1545.32 --> 1551.24] yeah so i don't know if they should lose too many points for that but well a more fair comparison +[1551.32 --> 1556.28] and where i might be better prepared to uh to do more of this testing like now that i know what +[1556.28 --> 1563.08] i'm doing i i burned like probably 16 hours of the time i spent prepping that video figuring out a way +[1563.08 --> 1568.60] to get repeatable results so once i have a bet i have better gear once i have better software once i've +[1568.60 --> 1574.20] had some more time to tinker with it i might tackle this again and then that would probably be a good time +[1574.20 --> 1580.60] for when um because we talked to ruckus about their x claim product line yeah so not the r series product +[1580.60 --> 1587.88] line but that would be probably more comparable to your maraki anyway um where these ones are +[1587.88 --> 1597.08] managed these are app managed uh wow that is that's a new fan art from jack sack jack sack did more fan +[1597.08 --> 1604.52] art hold on we gotta show this that's so good that was so fast how does he do it so fast dude it's +[1604.52 --> 1610.36] awesome i love his art style a wizard i love how you just magically have super long hair +[1612.04 --> 1615.64] well i think it was supposed to be like a modification of the pc master race guy +[1616.44 --> 1621.64] i don't think so no i think it's just like the beauty hair thing yeah i think it's just majestic yeah +[1621.64 --> 1631.56] that's awesome oh this is legitimately pretty cool i know i was like kind of playing around with it +[1632.44 --> 1637.00] like he's like it's not bad he's very posable yeah fully pose and he actually manages to hold the gun +[1637.72 --> 1642.60] which is a better than most action figures i got as a kid i don't think this is like these don't get +[1642.60 --> 1646.92] archived or anything right no yeah okay so this isn't getting archived we're not this isn't a sponsor +[1646.92 --> 1650.84] spot anymore that was honestly i was not really sold on the creek before and that was actually +[1650.84 --> 1657.08] pretty cool you get a lot of stuff for 14 bucks a shirt is about what you normally get yeah it's a +[1657.08 --> 1660.84] pretty cool shirt unless you're luke in which case every one of your shirts is free all my shirts are free +[1662.52 --> 1668.36] and like i'm not super into the little action figure thing but the bandana was cool yeah um the coin if +[1668.36 --> 1675.64] that game was good was cool yeah um the uh sorry i already said the bandana the free game that's i like +[1675.64 --> 1680.68] that they have like a variety of stuff yes so they hit like it's kind of like and like there's +[1680.68 --> 1686.04] enough value there's enough value in each type of variety that it was probably worth it even if +[1686.04 --> 1689.80] there's a whole bunch of stuff you don't care i don't know how they do it so cheaply just to be +[1689.80 --> 1695.48] perfectly honest mass yeah mass ordering yeah even even then like things like t-shirts only go down to +[1695.48 --> 1700.52] a certain cost like well there's like six dollar t-shirts.com and stuff yeah but that's you just have to +[1700.52 --> 1705.48] produce enough so that's six dollars so like yeah they only have thirteen dollars but no they sell +[1705.48 --> 1710.28] it for six dollars i know but it's cheaper so maybe it's four dollars or three dollars but that's +[1710.28 --> 1715.72] still using up a significant chunk of your budget yeah and it's probably like they do this every month +[1716.04 --> 1723.16] you can move his forms um they do this every month so they probably just have like some super +[1723.16 --> 1727.00] crazy contract where it's like yeah we're ordering like 10 000 shirts a month from you so we get blah blah +[1727.00 --> 1731.24] a lot yeah possibly a lot more than 10 000. i mean i have no idea how much business they do +[1731.24 --> 1737.96] either i'm pretty sure it's huge though it's significant yeah yeah because i'm sure i'm not +[1737.96 --> 1744.60] the first person who's been like oh it could be a good idea if i order this myself and then sift through +[1744.60 --> 1748.68] the stuff and give it to someone else's presence like i'm sure i'm not the first person that's done +[1748.68 --> 1753.08] that there's got to be some mom that subscribed to it and then uses everything in there as stocking +[1753.08 --> 1757.48] stuffers for christmas for example yeah people even like get this stuff to like decorate their +[1757.48 --> 1763.48] offices like when we went to the hyper x office yeah that one person had like so many pop vinyls +[1763.48 --> 1768.12] yeah on their thing not sure if they got it through loot crate or through funko but like yeah right +[1768.12 --> 1774.04] and actually this wouldn't be a bad thing for uh for us to have as just set dressing for for sets and +[1774.04 --> 1779.64] stuff because we we did order some junk from think geek that you know it's amazing how people some people +[1779.64 --> 1784.84] were upset about that they're like yeah i you know contributed to first blood and you guys +[1784.84 --> 1789.80] went and spent money on there were some pieces yeah it's like we we need some of that stuff around +[1789.80 --> 1795.40] here because we can't just have a blank wall like that poster we own like yeah it's not like it's just +[1795.40 --> 1800.28] like they're here for us to like occasionally we'll have it in the background of something or whatever +[1800.28 --> 1805.24] else when we need something yeah or we'll like hit linus with it like we throw them at me all the stuff +[1805.24 --> 1814.28] behind this the horse head we didn't pay for my head's been in there for like hours at this point +[1817.40 --> 1824.28] i'm just like you can go for it but like that's two halloween's now that's the entire piece you build +[1824.28 --> 1830.36] that packs based on how much your hands sweat actually my head's not the same his hands sweat +[1830.36 --> 1837.80] way more than anything you go to the gym like you don't really sweat no much yeah i sweat like +[1837.80 --> 1843.00] my hands like i think all of the sweat in my entire body just like comes to my hands then it's just like +[1843.00 --> 1847.00] braw understand how your hands do that no because you're right i don't really when i work out and +[1847.00 --> 1852.44] stuff like i'm way sweatier in general than you and my hands are not as bad as yours yeah i don't know +[1853.00 --> 1858.12] someone's asking us to check out arrow hive access points i mean we're i'm not even sure if this is a +[1858.12 --> 1866.20] category we're gonna continue to be interested in but uh no i don't think we should i don't think i +[1866.20 --> 1871.08] don't think we should either we're not doing ai o liquid coolers anymore right i don't think so +[1872.52 --> 1879.40] how big is the radiator cool that's how well it performs it's like yeah i don't know +[1881.56 --> 1887.08] at least with air coolers there's a lot of more unique shapes and yeah weird things that they'll do it's +[1887.08 --> 1891.40] like this is good for this system even if the performance is identical to everything else yeah +[1891.40 --> 1896.52] yeah yeah yeah it's like if you need ram on either side of your cpu socket this might be important +[1896.52 --> 1901.56] yeah stuff like that and like the only things that i could see as an advantage of like those +[1902.20 --> 1908.60] rajentech or whatever ones that are coming out is like they look cooler yeah and good good looking air +[1908.60 --> 1914.28] coolers i'm i'm totally into yeah but like to do an ai liquid cooler review and be like the only thing +[1914.28 --> 1919.24] that's different is that it looks cool it's just like this is like awesome stuff this guy's like +[1919.24 --> 1924.60] yeah i got all this stuff from loot crate oh i guess i could just screen share derp in uh in a year +[1924.60 --> 1931.88] he got that oh my goodness oh wow he got a little viking from skyrim i like i just said like i like +[1931.88 --> 1938.28] the adventure time the adventure time you got a blue mega man helmet man i'm jelly the adventure time stuff +[1938.28 --> 1943.64] is fantastic that's really cool i think the big man helmets were randomized yeah they were uh there's +[1943.64 --> 1948.44] a lot of stuff in there like i got one of their like hey we're getting rid of all the stuff we have +[1948.44 --> 1953.32] lying around crates one time and i got like the jazz transformer guy there was like a bunch of them +[1953.88 --> 1966.28] i think it's jazz that's one of them i don't know there's a jazz so not e-jazz a jazz yeah +[1966.28 --> 1967.64] yeah +[1971.80 --> 1978.76] all right i think uh burkel needs you to look at something so oh okay peace

like last week and last week and last week and the week before last, last, last week. +[49.80 --> 51.52] For two entire years. +[51.52 --> 52.52] Chocolate! +[52.52 --> 57.06] Did you say chocolate? +[57.06 --> 60.54] Because that is a successful business idea right there. +[60.54 --> 61.54] Okay. +[61.54 --> 62.54] Okay. +[62.54 --> 66.30] You know how there's like the jelly beans where some of them taste bad? +[66.30 --> 68.78] Some of the chocolate shocks you. +[68.78 --> 69.78] Haha! +[69.78 --> 73.78] How would it even do that? +[73.78 --> 75.54] Just have like a little battery inside? +[75.54 --> 76.54] Yeah. +[76.54 --> 77.54] It'd be horrible. +[77.54 --> 78.54] Consuming batteries. +[78.54 --> 79.54] And like you wouldn't eat that one. +[79.54 --> 80.54] Someone would though. +[80.54 --> 81.54] Because it would shock you. +[81.54 --> 82.54] Someone would. +[82.54 --> 83.54] There'd be a liability. +[83.54 --> 84.54] I know. +[84.54 --> 87.54] This company would go under like immediately. +[87.54 --> 89.54] It would be super fun while it existed. +[89.54 --> 90.54] Yeah. +[90.54 --> 91.54] I would buy chocolate for everyone. +[91.54 --> 92.54] Haha! +[92.54 --> 94.02] I'd be down. +[94.02 --> 95.02] I just... +[95.02 --> 97.02] Some idiot's gonna be like, ugh, whatever. +[97.02 --> 98.02] I was really stupid. +[98.02 --> 99.02] Like the odds... +[99.02 --> 103.52] The odds should be high enough that like you're pretty uncertain if it's gonna get you. +[103.52 --> 107.42] Like you know when you... you know when you lick a 9-volt battery to find out if it's +[107.42 --> 108.42] still good? +[108.42 --> 109.42] Yeah. +[109.42 --> 110.42] You're not... +[110.42 --> 111.42] Yeah. +[111.42 --> 113.42] Because it hurts enough that you're not a big fan of it. +[113.42 --> 114.42] No. +[114.42 --> 115.42] But it's not a big deal. +[115.42 --> 116.42] Yeah. +[116.42 --> 117.42] That's how chocolate should work. +[117.42 --> 120.42] It should be like a 50-50 chance that it's gonna like shock your mouth. +[120.42 --> 121.42] There should be... +[121.42 --> 122.42] Okay. +[122.42 --> 125.56] You know how like no one really gives a crap about terms of service and like the little +[125.56 --> 127.78] check boxes that you have to do whenever you sign up for anything? +[127.78 --> 128.78] Uh huh. +[128.78 --> 131.42] Like they don't even hold up in court and they shouldn't even exist and they're stupid? +[131.42 --> 132.42] Yeah. +[132.42 --> 135.48] There should be one that's just like, this will hurt you. +[135.48 --> 136.48] Please check to acknowledge. +[136.48 --> 137.48] Haha! +[137.48 --> 138.48] Just like... +[138.48 --> 143.48] And then it actually does stand up in court and then you can do stuff like chocolate. +[143.48 --> 145.48] And it's like, this is dangerous. +[145.48 --> 146.48] Don't buy this. +[146.48 --> 147.48] Check box buy. +[147.48 --> 148.48] And then it's okay. +[148.48 --> 149.48] Well it works for cigarettes. +[149.48 --> 150.48] Haha! +[150.48 --> 151.48] It did! +[151.48 --> 153.48] That's exactly it! +[153.48 --> 154.48] And those kill you. +[154.48 --> 156.48] They do more than just shock your mouth. +[156.48 --> 157.48] Yeah. +[157.48 --> 158.48] So if the Surgeon General dictates... +[158.48 --> 159.48] Oh man. +[159.48 --> 162.48] Like mandates that chocolate has to have a warning label that it's gonna hurt you. +[162.48 --> 165.48] Like on the label it can show like an electrocuted body. +[165.48 --> 166.48] Yeah. +[166.48 --> 168.48] And just be like, this could be you! +[168.48 --> 169.48] Don't eat chocolate! +[169.48 --> 171.48] And then you just buy that box and it's fine. +[171.48 --> 174.48] Hopefully it's in a sleeve so you can just take the gross sleeve off. +[174.48 --> 175.48] Kids today! +[175.48 --> 176.48] You lick batteries? +[176.48 --> 177.48] Yeah! +[177.48 --> 179.48] That's how you find out if a 9 volt has a good charge in it. +[179.48 --> 180.48] You lick the terminals. +[180.48 --> 181.48] Everyone does that. +[181.48 --> 182.48] No. +[182.48 --> 183.48] Not everyone. +[183.48 --> 184.48] We do that. +[184.48 --> 185.48] Yeah. +[185.48 --> 188.48] When you say everyone you mean you would live through that. +[188.48 --> 190.48] I think most people just plug it in. +[190.48 --> 191.48] Oh! +[191.48 --> 192.48] Oh! +[192.48 --> 193.48] This is a good idea. +[193.48 --> 196.48] Ah-pickness, whatever how I pronounce that. +[196.48 --> 199.48] Chocolate should be kinda Russian roulette-y. +[199.48 --> 202.48] So it should have 12 squares and only one of them shocks the user. +[202.48 --> 203.48] What? +[203.48 --> 209.48] So every bar has a shock in it somewhere. +[209.48 --> 214.48] And then it could be like a, oh man it could come in with like, you know how you used to +[214.48 --> 216.48] get like different candies and stuff that would come with jokes? +[216.48 --> 217.48] Yeah. +[217.48 --> 222.48] It would just come with instructions to like do a roulette wheel spin thing. +[222.48 --> 228.48] So like, oh if you like place them on the wrapper in this orientation and then like spin the wrapper or something. +[228.48 --> 230.48] You can like play roulette with your friends. +[230.48 --> 231.48] Shock roulette. +[231.48 --> 236.48] What if it was pitched as like a coffee alternative? +[236.48 --> 237.48] A coffee alternative? +[237.48 --> 239.48] You just have a piece of chocolate and- +[239.48 --> 241.48] So it literally electrocutes you? +[241.48 --> 243.48] I don't know if that's really kinda fast. +[243.48 --> 245.48] Oh you can't have that powerful of a battery in it. +[245.48 --> 246.48] Come on. +[246.48 --> 249.48] I don't know, I think we're gonna try. +[249.48 --> 257.48] Like obviously it's not gonna work but we're gonna give it a good old try. +[257.48 --> 260.48] He just said a bar so if you can get like a square thing. +[260.48 --> 261.48] You can give it a good old college try. +[261.48 --> 262.48] Half a diesel. +[262.48 --> 264.48] Kill everyone with small batteries in their chocolate. +[264.48 --> 265.48] Yeah. +[265.48 --> 267.48] But they're signing the waiver. +[267.48 --> 268.48] Don't buy this. +[268.48 --> 269.48] It will hurt you. +[269.48 --> 270.48] Alright. +[270.48 --> 272.48] I like that waiver. +[272.48 --> 277.48] So, I should have had that on your employee agreement. +[277.48 --> 278.48] Yeah. +[278.48 --> 279.48] Don't sign this. +[279.48 --> 280.48] Don't sign this. +[280.48 --> 281.48] It will be bad for you. +[281.48 --> 282.48] Don't sign this. +[282.48 --> 286.48] You will gain weight and you will work way too many hours. +[286.48 --> 293.48] Alright, so the main goal of the after party today is for you guys to hit me up on Twitter +[293.48 --> 298.48] and to a lesser extent Twitch chat just cause it's a lot harder for me to monitor. +[298.48 --> 300.48] Oh wow, there's a chocolate store. +[300.48 --> 301.48] Oh. +[301.48 --> 303.48] Oh yeah, but that's Chocolat. +[303.48 --> 305.48] That's not chocolate. +[305.48 --> 306.48] Yeah. +[306.48 --> 307.48] It's very different. +[307.48 --> 308.48] Chocolat. +[308.48 --> 309.48] Someone linked it. +[309.48 --> 311.48] I was like, oh wow. +[311.48 --> 312.48] It looks really nice. +[312.48 --> 313.48] That's the French version. +[313.48 --> 315.48] I would never buy any of it. +[315.48 --> 317.48] Albie says tell Nick I said hi. +[317.48 --> 318.48] Hi Albie. +[318.48 --> 325.48] Alright, so we were gonna talk about the campaign. +[325.48 --> 329.48] So, we already covered a little bit of the stuff about it. +[329.48 --> 336.48] Um, we didn't really talk much about the Keep On Digging shirts on the show today, did +[336.48 --> 337.48] we? +[337.48 --> 341.48] I asked you to take your sweaters off when you were doing the Ubisoft part. +[341.48 --> 342.48] Oh yeah, okay. +[342.48 --> 343.48] Sorry, we should probably... +[343.48 --> 345.48] There wasn't a ton of, like they didn't... +[345.48 --> 346.48] Yeah, they didn't really dig. +[346.48 --> 347.48] That's okay. +[347.48 --> 348.48] They'll do something next week for sure. +[348.48 --> 349.48] Oh, I know. +[349.48 --> 350.48] 100%. +[350.48 --> 351.48] It'll happen. +[351.48 --> 353.48] So anyway, we got the mockups. +[353.48 --> 358.48] I posted this on Instagram already, but we got the mockups for our Keep On Digging shirts, +[358.48 --> 362.48] which I think are actually among the sharpest designs we've had so far. +[362.48 --> 363.48] Mine doesn't really fit that well. +[363.48 --> 368.48] Yeah, well they sent all mediums for our proofs instead of sending a variety of sizes, so +[368.48 --> 370.48] you could actually fit it. +[370.48 --> 371.48] But this is how it should fit. +[371.48 --> 373.48] It's American Apparel, so the sizing should be... +[373.48 --> 374.48] They're nice shirts. +[374.48 --> 375.48] Should be pretty straightforward. +[375.48 --> 376.48] Yeah, super nice shirts. +[376.48 --> 378.48] Um, and then those are on... +[378.48 --> 380.48] They're comfy, it just doesn't fit. +[380.48 --> 382.48] Comfy, it just doesn't fit. +[382.48 --> 384.48] The material is comfy. +[384.48 --> 386.48] Slash, keep on digging. +[386.48 --> 392.48] So I'll post the link to that in the forum here, without an HTTP, so that I span it. +[392.48 --> 395.48] Everyone's ragging us for our crowdfunding thing. +[395.48 --> 398.48] Star Citizen just hit $63 million. +[398.48 --> 400.48] Well, yes. +[400.48 --> 402.48] We should build spaceships then. +[402.48 --> 403.48] Yeah, let's just... +[403.48 --> 404.48] Yeah, we should just 3D model like... +[404.48 --> 405.48] Lennis Spaceship Group. +[405.48 --> 407.48] 3D model janky spaceships and be like, +[407.48 --> 409.48] you can be the proud owner of the 3D model... +[409.48 --> 411.48] This might exist in the game at some point. +[411.48 --> 417.48] Yeah, the SketchUp model of this, that you can print on your 3D printer at home. +[417.48 --> 421.48] If you buy it before it exists at all in any capacity, you get LTI! +[421.48 --> 427.48] Oh, apparently Keep On Diggin' is at $420 sold. +[427.48 --> 430.48] So now no one's gonna buy it, just so that it can stay there for a bit. +[430.48 --> 433.48] Who do you think was the person who originally posted that in chat? +[433.48 --> 434.48] You? +[434.48 --> 437.48] It was you, wasn't it? +[437.48 --> 439.48] Yeah, I just think it's funny. +[439.48 --> 440.48] What a fool. +[440.48 --> 441.48] Yeah, it's $420 sold. +[441.48 --> 445.48] That's okay, we just talked about it, so I'm sure it'll hit $421 and you can just get back to work. +[445.48 --> 450.48] We're already slightly over 21% to our next goal. +[450.48 --> 451.48] Are we really? +[451.48 --> 452.48] Yeah. +[452.48 --> 453.48] Wow. +[453.48 --> 454.48] What are we going to do? +[454.48 --> 458.48] I guess moving the goals and making them all much easier makes it start to hit them faster. +[458.48 --> 459.48] It's more fun! +[459.48 --> 460.48] Yeah, it's a lot more fun. +[460.48 --> 463.48] Well that was the way I wanted it to work anyway. +[463.48 --> 466.48] We just, I mean, I already explained this during the show, but we just kind of... +[466.48 --> 468.48] And I think, I think like... +[468.48 --> 469.48] Fit the other way. +[469.48 --> 474.48] I haven't even talked to you about this, but I think it's hard to like think about those numbers properly +[474.48 --> 482.48] when you are focusing on massive metric numbers of like, what's all the money I can like sacrifice everything to acquire? +[482.48 --> 484.48] And then what is the things I need to buy? +[484.48 --> 487.48] And then you have to break down stuff into small numbers. +[487.48 --> 490.48] For this, like it's probably hard to translate. +[490.48 --> 491.48] Yeah, I mean, that's... +[491.48 --> 501.48] I think, sorry, what Luke means more is like the total cost of this is so much that, you know, we kind of look at the crowdfunding and go, +[501.48 --> 509.48] okay, well, if we look at it in terms of the scale of how much this investment is total, then we end up with these numbers that are really, really high. +[509.48 --> 510.48] Yeah. +[510.48 --> 518.48] Whereas if we make it something that's just fun and attainable, then I think that's going to be a much better community engagement exercise anyway. +[518.48 --> 519.48] Yeah, it's more fun for everybody. +[519.48 --> 530.48] And what's really cool about this setup right now that I like a lot is, say, if we had exactly $20,000 and someone went absolutely balls to the wall crazy, +[530.48 --> 536.48] which I don't even expect anyone to do, and bought a $10,000 tier, it would unlock so much stuff. +[536.48 --> 537.48] Like five tiers. +[537.48 --> 539.48] Like, that's kind of cool. +[539.48 --> 542.48] Because they get more than just the, I don't know, I'm just talking. +[542.48 --> 544.48] So I'm linking the new office thing. +[544.48 --> 548.48] Nexus asks, what kind of a space are you looking into getting? +[548.48 --> 550.48] So warehouse office. +[550.48 --> 555.48] It would be about a third office and about two thirds warehouse. +[555.48 --> 564.48] And then the warehouse, we would need to kind of subdivide, build rooms within rooms for noise isolation between the sets from each other. +[564.48 --> 571.48] And then also from the echoes in the warehouse, because the last thing we want to do is end up in a situation like NCIX, +[571.48 --> 577.48] where they're in a warehouse that doesn't have any echo reduction strategy in place. +[577.48 --> 579.48] And the audio in there is awful. +[579.48 --> 580.48] Yeah. +[586.48 --> 590.48] Someone asks, so your viewers have to pay the, put the bill for your wants. +[590.48 --> 591.48] No, they don't have to do anything. +[591.48 --> 592.48] That's the idea. +[592.48 --> 594.48] We're not limiting anything in any way. +[594.48 --> 598.48] I mean, every contributor campaign we've ever done has been purely voluntary. +[598.48 --> 605.48] And we've actually positioned it so you don't really get any special benefit over someone who just watches the content. +[605.48 --> 610.48] We try to set up, we talk about free to play games on the show a lot. +[610.48 --> 616.48] And one thing that I bring up a lot is that there's very wrong ways to do free to play games. +[616.48 --> 621.48] And that's one of the reasons why I don't like any free to play MMO is because I don't really think there's a lot of free to play games. +[621.48 --> 625.48] Because I don't really think there's a right way to do that because you're just going to break something. +[625.48 --> 629.48] Or, well, so far I think pretty much everyone has broken something. +[629.48 --> 635.48] But games like League, where it's cosmetic stuff, I think personally works. +[635.48 --> 637.48] So a lot of our campaigns are largely cosmetic stuff. +[637.48 --> 643.48] You'll get a badge, maybe you'll get your name in something, maybe you can get a bobble head if you feel like that. +[643.48 --> 647.48] Like you can get cool cosmetic-y style things, it's just not in a game. +[647.48 --> 649.48] Someone asks how much does buying a shirt help? +[649.48 --> 651.48] I think in the neighborhood of $10. +[651.48 --> 653.48] So, yeah, it helps a lot. +[653.48 --> 655.48] To keep on digging shirts, I think it's a little more than that. +[655.48 --> 656.48] A little more? +[656.48 --> 659.48] The more that we sell, the more benefit we get per shirt. +[659.48 --> 660.48] So there you go. +[660.48 --> 666.48] So if we sell a thousand of them, then the margin gets a little bit more the higher it goes. +[666.48 --> 668.48] We view it, it's over $10 at that point. +[668.48 --> 671.48] Right now it's hovering around $10, $11. +[671.48 --> 674.48] We started making shirts because we wanted certain ones. +[674.48 --> 675.48] Yeah. +[675.48 --> 679.48] We were trying to find an affordable way to acquire shirts for the company. +[679.48 --> 681.48] But whatever. +[681.48 --> 686.48] We haven't still made the shirt that we were originally looking into shirt companies for, have we? +[686.48 --> 687.48] What was that? +[687.48 --> 688.48] The Mod Team one. +[688.48 --> 689.48] Master... no. +[689.48 --> 691.48] Yeah, we still haven't made that shirt. +[691.48 --> 693.48] Because we can't find someone to make a super cool one. +[693.48 --> 694.48] Right. +[694.48 --> 695.48] We'll figure that out. +[695.48 --> 696.48] We're not working on that. +[696.48 --> 697.48] I know. +[697.48 --> 698.48] It's just one of the things. +[698.48 --> 701.48] I really want a Mod Team shirt, but I want it to be awesome. +[701.48 --> 702.48] Like I don't want it to be... +[702.48 --> 706.48] It's one of those things that's like, well we want it now, but there's this other thing +[706.48 --> 708.48] that needs to be done like yesterday. +[708.48 --> 709.48] Yeah. +[709.48 --> 710.48] So... +[710.48 --> 713.48] I was trying to explain to Nick about how I need an Arda asset for that thing that I'm +[713.48 --> 714.48] planning to do for the forum. +[714.48 --> 715.48] Yeah. +[715.48 --> 716.48] For the contributors. +[716.48 --> 720.48] And I was like, we need to do it now. +[720.48 --> 721.48] And he's like, no we'll do it tomorrow. +[721.48 --> 723.48] I was like, it won't happen tomorrow. +[723.48 --> 724.48] At all. +[724.48 --> 727.48] Yeah, but my point was it wasn't happening today either. +[727.48 --> 728.48] So... +[728.48 --> 729.48] Yeah. +[729.48 --> 730.48] We've got a lot of people... +[730.48 --> 731.48] That was true. +[731.48 --> 734.48] We've got a lot of people talking about how much they like the kitchen set. +[734.48 --> 735.48] What? +[735.48 --> 736.48] That was crazy. +[736.48 --> 737.48] Are you guys insane? +[737.48 --> 738.48] It's horrible. +[738.48 --> 739.48] I think it's just like... +[739.48 --> 740.48] The evil you know. +[740.48 --> 741.48] No. +[741.48 --> 744.48] We will put up something way better than that. +[744.48 --> 745.48] Right. +[745.48 --> 746.48] The kitchen set is awful. +[746.48 --> 751.48] The only reason we use it is because it's the only part of this entire building where +[751.48 --> 755.48] there's enough room to have the lights so that the set is lit correctly. +[755.48 --> 756.48] That's the only reason we use it. +[756.48 --> 757.48] It's awful. +[757.48 --> 758.48] We can do so much better than that. +[758.48 --> 759.48] It's even like hard to work with. +[759.48 --> 760.48] Yeah. +[760.48 --> 762.48] I think people are worried that Linus Tech Tips is going to become like a white space set, +[762.48 --> 763.48] which it's not. +[763.48 --> 764.48] No, it's not. +[764.48 --> 765.48] It's not even close. +[765.48 --> 766.48] No, it's not. +[766.48 --> 767.48] It's not even close. +[767.48 --> 768.48] No, it's not. +[768.48 --> 769.48] It's going to be an awesome set that's like actually... +[769.48 --> 774.48] We would want something like techy and geeky looking. +[774.48 --> 775.48] Something that fits the show. +[775.48 --> 776.48] Not a kitchen. +[776.48 --> 777.48] Not a kitchen. +[777.48 --> 778.48] The kitchen has nothing to do with anything. +[778.48 --> 781.48] The first time we used the kitchen was for a build guide. +[781.48 --> 785.48] And the only reason we used it was because there wasn't enough space on the regular set +[785.48 --> 786.48] to do a build guide there. +[786.48 --> 790.48] And then we switched back over there because the lighting was not enough space to do a build +[790.48 --> 791.48] guide there. +[791.48 --> 795.48] And then we switched back over there because the lighting was so much better. +[795.48 --> 797.48] And Brandon wouldn't let me... +[797.48 --> 801.48] He basically filled the other space with clutter so I couldn't move anything back there. +[801.48 --> 803.48] Yeah, yeah, it's absolutely true. +[803.48 --> 804.48] He did. +[804.48 --> 806.48] Brandon has subtle ways of getting what he wants. +[806.48 --> 807.48] I was just going to do this. +[807.48 --> 810.48] I'm going to make this incredibly inconvenient for you. +[810.48 --> 812.48] People get attached to strange stuff. +[812.48 --> 816.48] Like the old Linus Tech Tips intro with the box falling. +[816.48 --> 818.48] Dude, when we stopped filming... +[818.48 --> 819.48] When we stopped using it? +[819.48 --> 820.48] Yeah. +[820.48 --> 821.48] People freaked. +[821.48 --> 822.48] That was nuts. +[822.48 --> 825.48] When we first implemented it, people freaked. +[825.48 --> 827.48] They hated it. +[827.48 --> 829.48] People hate change every time. +[829.48 --> 832.48] And then we took it away and they were like, what are you doing? +[832.48 --> 835.48] You took away my intro that I hated? +[835.48 --> 837.48] I'm like, oh, sorry. +[837.48 --> 841.48] I do plan to keep the Mario karts in the back of the set. +[841.48 --> 842.48] Of a set. +[842.48 --> 843.48] Maybe not Linus Tech Tips. +[843.48 --> 845.48] Maybe Channel Super Fun or something. +[845.48 --> 846.48] Yeah. +[846.48 --> 847.48] Bernie says, keep the kitchen. +[847.48 --> 855.48] It makes you look like a geek startup that's too lazy to do anything else. +[855.48 --> 856.48] Right. +[856.48 --> 857.48] That is not... +[857.48 --> 858.48] That's something we want to portray. +[858.48 --> 859.48] ...the objective. +[859.48 --> 863.48] The kitchen said it's so peaceful though. +[863.48 --> 865.48] I liked the kitchen because it's unique. +[865.48 --> 866.48] I kind of like the kitchen. +[866.48 --> 868.48] All these Twitter comments! +[868.48 --> 873.48] You should change one of your goals to do a WAN show with gay band masks. +[873.48 --> 874.48] Is that like... +[874.48 --> 877.48] Is that erecting false, you know, idols? +[877.48 --> 878.48] Is it actually a sin? +[878.48 --> 880.48] Yeah, I don't think we can do that. +[880.48 --> 881.48] Yeah. +[881.48 --> 882.48] I wouldn't want to do that. +[882.48 --> 884.48] It has to be like... +[884.48 --> 887.48] If we were to do something like that, it would have to be a tribute. +[887.48 --> 888.48] Not a mockery. +[888.48 --> 891.48] So it would have to be something like the statue. +[891.48 --> 892.48] Good. +[892.48 --> 893.48] That was good. +[893.48 --> 894.48] We're live by the way. +[894.48 --> 895.48] Please keep your... +[895.48 --> 896.48] Hi Brandon! +[896.48 --> 898.48] Keep your language to yourself. +[898.48 --> 900.48] Because Brandon's the one we have to worry about. +[900.48 --> 901.48] Yes, is it Brandon? +[901.48 --> 902.48] The potty ball. +[902.48 --> 903.48] Yeah, you have to worry about. +[903.48 --> 905.48] I'm the worst one in the current. +[905.48 --> 911.48] Brandon just spews slur words. +[911.48 --> 917.48] Yeah, I'm gonna keep taking shots at you until I feel like I've gotten you back for poking me during my video. +[917.48 --> 920.48] That was the best part of that video. +[920.48 --> 921.48] That was actually pretty funny. +[921.48 --> 922.48] I'm sure a lot of people were happy with that. +[922.48 --> 923.48] Would you stop! +[923.48 --> 926.48] Well, with the amount of Twitch comments we get. +[926.48 --> 930.48] People are like, Linus, honestly, don't use a plain background like Unbox Therapy. +[930.48 --> 932.48] I like an interesting background like the kitchen. +[932.48 --> 934.48] We're not gonna do a white wall. +[934.48 --> 935.48] We have plans for sets. +[935.48 --> 938.48] Yeah, we're moving into a big space. +[938.48 --> 947.48] We're not gonna move into a big space so that we can paint, you know, a 60 foot by 40 foot wall white. +[947.48 --> 949.48] That is not the point. +[949.48 --> 950.48] Well, maybe the base coat. +[950.48 --> 951.48] Yeah. +[951.48 --> 953.48] But then other things. +[953.48 --> 954.48] Yeah! +[954.48 --> 955.48] Rainbow Dragon Jack! +[955.48 --> 956.48] Technicality! +[956.48 --> 957.48] Yeah! +[957.48 --> 959.48] How about you guys say Technicolor and I was like, that's what I'm saying. +[959.48 --> 960.48] Oh yeah, we could do that. +[960.48 --> 961.48] No. +[961.48 --> 966.48] People are like, what about if the new WAN show set is in a kitchen? +[966.48 --> 967.48] Oh my god! +[967.48 --> 968.48] You know what? +[968.48 --> 969.48] I'll tell you what. +[969.48 --> 974.48] I won't promise a kitchen, but we could have like a faucet somewhere in the background. +[974.48 --> 979.48] Somebody had a really good suggestion which was like, can you at least like hide a spatula +[979.48 --> 981.48] somewhere in the new LTT set or something? +[981.48 --> 982.48] Sure. +[982.48 --> 983.48] We can call that. +[983.48 --> 985.48] Or we could have like one of those really crappy plants. +[985.48 --> 986.48] Are those even still there? +[986.48 --> 987.48] Oh yeah. +[987.48 --> 988.48] The fake ball plants that you got. +[988.48 --> 989.48] Oh yeah, those are there. +[989.48 --> 990.48] Those are hilarious. +[990.48 --> 991.48] I got those from the dollar store, man. +[991.48 --> 992.48] They helped so much, but they're so stupid. +[992.48 --> 993.48] I know, but they- +[993.48 --> 994.48] They help a lot. +[994.48 --> 995.48] They help a lot. +[995.48 --> 996.48] They help a lot. +[996.48 --> 997.48] I agree. +[997.48 --> 1001.48] It has like an alarm clock that's never set so it's always flashing. +[1001.48 --> 1002.48] Yeah. +[1002.48 --> 1010.48] And then sometimes we'll remember to put gaffa tape over it so that it doesn't show up. +[1010.48 --> 1012.48] Oh man. +[1012.48 --> 1016.48] Alex Madd asks, how much would the bronze statue of Gaben cost? +[1016.48 --> 1018.48] You said you priced it out. +[1018.48 --> 1019.48] Somewhere. +[1019.48 --> 1023.48] It's somewhere in the range of $130,000 to $175,000. +[1023.48 --> 1026.48] So it's not really a tier that we want to reach because- +[1026.48 --> 1028.48] Yeah, I remember these are the other expenses. +[1028.48 --> 1029.48] It's just- +[1029.48 --> 1031.48] Yeah, no, no, I factored that in. +[1031.48 --> 1032.48] I know. +[1032.48 --> 1033.48] Well, I'm saying because Nick was like, uh. +[1033.48 --> 1035.48] I thought Wipit factored in was like $120,000. +[1035.48 --> 1041.48] To get an artisan to come and do it because I hadn't factored in the room and board and +[1041.48 --> 1043.48] flight and all that stuff. +[1043.48 --> 1046.48] So if we could find someone locally, we could probably save some money. +[1046.48 --> 1051.48] But if we found some of the people that I found that have their work advertised online, +[1051.48 --> 1053.48] it was going to be really expensive. +[1053.48 --> 1055.48] Like, life size is not cheap. +[1055.48 --> 1056.48] No. +[1056.48 --> 1059.48] Someone says, please talk about Linus Cat Tips channel. +[1059.48 --> 1063.48] I don't really have any plans to resurrect Linus Cat Tips anytime soon. +[1063.48 --> 1067.48] The problem with Linus Cat Tips, as much as anything, is my cats. +[1067.48 --> 1071.48] They're extremely difficult to capture doing anything interesting because they just kind +[1071.48 --> 1073.48] of stop whenever I turn on a camera. +[1073.48 --> 1074.48] It's true. +[1074.48 --> 1075.48] I don't know how- +[1075.48 --> 1076.48] That's the other thing with that. +[1076.48 --> 1077.48] Yeah. +[1077.48 --> 1078.48] I don't know how many cats in a cage. +[1078.48 --> 1079.48] Rockin' in normal. +[1079.48 --> 1080.48] That's outrageous. +[1080.48 --> 1084.48] I can't log in with my Steam account anymore. +[1084.48 --> 1085.48] What? +[1085.48 --> 1086.48] Is that broken on the forum? +[1086.48 --> 1087.48] It shouldn't be. +[1087.48 --> 1090.48] I used it like two days ago. +[1090.48 --> 1091.48] It could be though. +[1091.48 --> 1092.48] Ooh. +[1092.48 --> 1093.48] I wonder if that was- +[1093.48 --> 1096.48] Silent Protagonist asks, if I donate a million dollars and go into severe debt, can I get +[1096.48 --> 1097.48] a job? +[1097.48 --> 1098.48] What? +[1098.48 --> 1099.48] What? +[1099.48 --> 1102.48] I'm not sure how to address that. +[1102.48 --> 1105.48] John asks, how big do you want Linus Media Group to get? +[1105.48 --> 1106.48] Maybe five years from now. +[1106.48 --> 1111.48] The goal for Linus Media Group doesn't really have a limit. +[1111.48 --> 1119.48] I mean, what I kind of realized when we destroyed my original five year goal was that, I don't +[1119.48 --> 1122.48] know, the sky's kind of the limit and we're going to just do our best with it. +[1122.48 --> 1128.48] We're going to just do more, faster, harder, better, as long as we can, as hard as we can, +[1128.48 --> 1129.48] as fast as we can. +[1129.48 --> 1131.48] So Steam login is broken. +[1131.48 --> 1132.48] Oh. +[1132.48 --> 1133.48] So I'll fix that. +[1133.48 --> 1134.48] Okay. +[1134.48 --> 1135.48] Sorry. +[1135.48 --> 1136.48] Maybe check the other ones as well. +[1136.48 --> 1137.48] I did. +[1137.48 --> 1138.48] The other ones work. +[1138.48 --> 1139.48] Okay. +[1139.48 --> 1140.48] So we'll get that fixed for you guys. +[1140.48 --> 1141.48] Yeah. +[1141.48 --> 1142.48] Like, here. +[1142.48 --> 1145.48] Here's an example of one of the things that I would love to do. +[1145.48 --> 1150.48] You know, when we get a little bit more monthly cash flow, because a lot of the cash that we +[1150.48 --> 1154.48] have now is going to go into moving into this place, even if we raise a bunch of money with +[1154.48 --> 1156.48] the crowdfunding campaign. +[1156.48 --> 1161.48] Like, something I would love to do is have a couple people that are dedicated to developing +[1161.48 --> 1165.48] a new channel of, like, funny videos and, like, sketch comedy. +[1165.48 --> 1168.48] I think we're a really funny group here. +[1168.48 --> 1173.48] And something like the campaign video, that I, even people who didn't like the idea that +[1173.48 --> 1178.48] we were doing a crowdfunding campaign said, wow, that was a great video. +[1178.48 --> 1181.48] That was really professionally shot and it was hilarious. +[1181.48 --> 1183.48] You know how long that took us? +[1183.48 --> 1188.48] That takes a lot less time and effort than most of our review videos. +[1188.48 --> 1189.48] Way less. +[1189.48 --> 1190.48] Yep. +[1190.48 --> 1191.48] I spent, um... +[1191.48 --> 1192.48] Maybe like two hours. +[1192.48 --> 1195.48] I spent an hour and a half scripting it. +[1195.48 --> 1201.48] I spent about an hour in a meeting with Burkle about how we were going to shoot it, like, +[1201.48 --> 1204.48] what was going to core... and then tweaking some of it to make it funnier. +[1204.48 --> 1208.48] And then we spent about three hours shooting it and Burkle spent half a day editing it. +[1208.48 --> 1210.48] And we have a lot of pretty creative people. +[1210.48 --> 1214.48] So these concepts for, like, the ideas for those videos fly around all the time. +[1214.48 --> 1215.48] And so... +[1215.48 --> 1217.48] And we have lists of things that we would like to do that would be cool. +[1217.48 --> 1219.48] Why do we want to grow? +[1219.48 --> 1221.48] And why do we want you guys to help us grow? +[1221.48 --> 1222.48] Because we don't... +[1222.48 --> 1224.48] We're going to keep making tech videos. +[1224.48 --> 1225.48] That's our bread and butter. +[1225.48 --> 1226.48] That's our lifeblood. +[1226.48 --> 1228.48] That's the thing that I'm, like, passionate about. +[1228.48 --> 1230.48] Like, something arrives at the door and it's like, +[1230.48 --> 1232.48] Ooh, ooh, what's in it? +[1232.48 --> 1233.48] Like, that's... +[1233.48 --> 1234.48] That's... +[1234.48 --> 1235.48] We all love that stuff. +[1235.48 --> 1237.48] But we want to be able to do more. +[1237.48 --> 1241.48] And we think there's a lot of creative ideas we have that are not getting tapped. +[1241.48 --> 1247.48] Because either we don't have enough support to make tech videos to the level that we think you guys deserve, +[1247.48 --> 1253.48] without spending all of our time on them, or have enough resources to bring in additional new people +[1253.48 --> 1258.48] to start to develop that new content that we think would be hilarious and awesome. +[1258.48 --> 1259.48] So... +[1259.48 --> 1260.48] So that's what we want to do. +[1260.48 --> 1261.48] That's why we're doing this. +[1261.48 --> 1262.48] And that's... +[1262.48 --> 1264.48] That's what I want Linus Media Group to be five years from now. +[1264.48 --> 1267.48] I want it to have, you know, like, uh... +[1267.48 --> 1268.48] Okay, I don't want to... +[1268.48 --> 1274.48] I want to say ideas that are good without revealing the ideas that we're actually going to do right now. +[1274.48 --> 1275.48] Yeah, I know what you're doing. +[1275.48 --> 1276.48] I don't want to hear you. +[1276.48 --> 1277.48] Um... +[1277.48 --> 1278.48] So, let's just leave it at that. +[1278.48 --> 1280.48] But, yeah, we have a lot of really great ideas for things we want to do. +[1280.48 --> 1282.48] And some of them won't even involve me. +[1282.48 --> 1284.48] I won't even be on camera. +[1284.48 --> 1286.48] But that doesn't mean that... +[1286.48 --> 1289.48] Creative processes, administration, all that kind of stuff. +[1289.48 --> 1294.48] Yeah, and that we can't use this backbone that we've created of Linus Tech Tips and Tech Quickie, +[1294.48 --> 1300.48] and to a much lesser extent, Channel Super Fun, to fund more awesome content. +[1300.48 --> 1301.48] So it's... +[1301.48 --> 1304.48] For me, it's not, we need you guys to give us this money. +[1304.48 --> 1309.48] It's, if you want to support this campaign, then that's great. +[1309.48 --> 1310.48] It'll help us get there faster. +[1310.48 --> 1319.48] If you think that the team we have is capable of giving you guys a good return on that $10 or $25 or however much investment, +[1319.48 --> 1322.48] in terms of the entertainment and the knowledge that you'll get from it, then great. +[1322.48 --> 1325.48] And if you don't feel like that, then that's fine too. +[1325.48 --> 1326.48] It's okay. +[1326.48 --> 1328.48] I don't want there to be any pressure. +[1328.48 --> 1343.48] I think that's what was upsetting people, is they felt like there was this pressure, like I was pitching that we wouldn't be able to do it if they didn't, you know, throw $600,000 at us to build a gay band statue in the lobby of our new office. +[1343.48 --> 1344.48] It was, yeah. +[1344.48 --> 1345.48] That was a joke anyway. +[1345.48 --> 1348.48] A lot of the tiers were obviously jokes, but it was not. +[1348.48 --> 1352.48] A lot of the ones I really didn't want to do we've brought down into the attainable realm, so. +[1352.48 --> 1355.48] Let's be clear, it's not a joke in the sense that we weren't going to do it. +[1355.48 --> 1356.48] We would do it, but like... +[1356.48 --> 1360.48] It was a joke in the sense that it would not be, like, beneficial at all to us. +[1360.48 --> 1365.48] Yeah, and it wasn't something that we expected at all. +[1365.48 --> 1366.48] No, not even close. +[1366.48 --> 1375.48] We looked into it, well, Linus looked into it a really long time ago, just as like a, how feasible is this not even to be part of this campaign, just because we thought it would be kind of cool to do. +[1375.48 --> 1378.48] It's like, oh, it's buckets of money. +[1378.48 --> 1379.48] Okay. +[1379.48 --> 1380.48] What's up? +[1380.48 --> 1385.48] People have reminded me in Twitch chat that I didn't post the wrap. +[1385.48 --> 1386.48] Starkeeper wrap? +[1386.48 --> 1389.48] Uh, how do I, how do I post it on the forum, do you know? +[1389.48 --> 1392.48] Uh, what do you mean? +[1392.48 --> 1395.48] Don't know about swag, but me I'm... +[1395.48 --> 1396.48] Yeah, yeah, yeah, that one. +[1396.48 --> 1397.48] Nope, not that. +[1397.48 --> 1398.48] Oh, it's so awful. +[1398.48 --> 1399.48] Don't need that. +[1399.48 --> 1403.48] Oh, come on, man, you had a black and white suit from your head to your feet though. +[1403.48 --> 1404.48] Not set up right now. +[1404.48 --> 1405.48] Where can I put it? +[1405.48 --> 1407.48] Uh, if you want to use that... +[1407.48 --> 1409.48] Oh no, because we just moved. +[1409.48 --> 1410.48] Yeah, that's terrible. +[1410.48 --> 1411.48] Um... +[1411.48 --> 1413.48] Where else could we put it? +[1413.48 --> 1414.48] Could we torrent it? +[1414.48 --> 1415.48] Yeah. +[1415.48 --> 1421.48] You could torrent it, you could Dropbox download, you could mega upload. +[1421.48 --> 1422.48] Mega upload! +[1422.48 --> 1423.48] Try mega upload. +[1423.48 --> 1425.48] Mega upload, here we go. +[1425.48 --> 1426.48] Mega adopt. +[1426.48 --> 1429.48] This is so bad, I really don't think people should want to... +[1429.48 --> 1430.48] Just mega. +[1430.48 --> 1431.48] Just mega. +[1431.48 --> 1432.48] You're mega. +[1432.48 --> 1433.48] Mega. +[1433.48 --> 1434.48] Mega. +[1434.48 --> 1440.48] Okay, do I have to log in to upload things? +[1440.48 --> 1441.48] Nope. +[1441.48 --> 1442.48] Cool. +[1442.48 --> 1443.48] Mega's awesome. +[1443.48 --> 1444.48] I think it's awesome. +[1444.48 --> 1445.48] Oh. +[1445.48 --> 1446.48] Alright. +[1446.48 --> 1453.48] I'm glad I was able to at least find the file now that I've committed to show it to people, +[1453.48 --> 1454.48] because I wasn't sure where it was. +[1454.48 --> 1456.48] It's in Ed's stupid... +[1456.48 --> 1457.48] Oh no. +[1457.48 --> 1458.48] Disorganized. +[1458.48 --> 1459.48] ...wrinkling brains folder. +[1459.48 --> 1460.48] Pit of death. +[1460.48 --> 1462.48] Yeah, there's just... who knows what's there. +[1462.48 --> 1464.48] The files go to get lost. +[1464.48 --> 1465.48] Okay. +[1465.48 --> 1466.48] Okay. +[1466.48 --> 1470.48] So, we're using an ephemeral account, it will expire, etc. +[1470.48 --> 1473.48] That's okay, we'll put it on a torrent before then. +[1473.48 --> 1474.48] Yeah. +[1474.48 --> 1475.48] So it's all good. +[1475.48 --> 1479.48] Alright, that's gonna be up in a moment. +[1479.48 --> 1481.48] Let me check out... +[1481.48 --> 1484.48] Ooh, Travis... er... +[1484.48 --> 1489.48] Is a person who Luke goes... +[1489.48 --> 1490.48] Travis... +[1490.48 --> 1492.48] Who is unrelated to anything else that... +[1492.48 --> 1493.48] Travis wanted you to go to dinner. +[1493.48 --> 1495.48] ...that would be going on, yes. +[1495.48 --> 1496.48] I give up. +[1496.48 --> 1498.48] Anyways, plans and things. +[1498.48 --> 1499.48] Plans and things. +[1499.48 --> 1500.48] Talk later. +[1500.48 --> 1501.48] Ha. +[1501.48 --> 1502.48] Ha. +[1502.48 --> 1503.48] Ha. +[1503.48 --> 1507.48] Um, Balthazar asks, will the move cause a video shortage? +[1507.48 --> 1510.48] I would like to say no, but no guarantees. +[1510.48 --> 1512.48] It's gonna be pretty intense. +[1512.48 --> 1513.48] I'll do it well. +[1513.48 --> 1515.48] Last time, we didn't have... we didn't miss a day. +[1515.48 --> 1516.48] Nope. +[1516.48 --> 1518.48] We moved the entire company and we didn't miss a day. +[1518.48 --> 1519.48] It was also a lot easier. +[1519.48 --> 1521.48] It was a lot easier then. +[1521.48 --> 1522.48] There. +[1522.48 --> 1523.48] Our videos were easier. +[1523.48 --> 1527.48] What we might do is we might just bail and do like unboxing week or something. +[1527.48 --> 1528.48] Yeah. +[1528.48 --> 1532.48] Where I could literally film seven unboxings in a single day, like in a single sitting, +[1532.48 --> 1536.48] and then we would throw that together and we could do like a retro kickback unboxing +[1536.48 --> 1537.48] week thing to cover the move. +[1537.48 --> 1538.48] That could be... +[1538.48 --> 1539.48] Oh my god. +[1539.48 --> 1542.48] That could tie in so well if people hit the like fountain tier thing. +[1542.48 --> 1543.48] Just do all of them. +[1543.48 --> 1544.48] Oh yeah. +[1544.48 --> 1548.48] We could do all of them at the old fountain in front of the old NCIX office. +[1548.48 --> 1550.48] How far is that now? +[1550.48 --> 1551.48] Cause I don't like... +[1551.48 --> 1552.48] I don't think it's that far. +[1552.48 --> 1553.48] I don't know where anything is. +[1553.48 --> 1555.48] We moved so many tiers. +[1555.48 --> 1556.48] Yeah. +[1556.48 --> 1558.48] Everything is just completely jumbled and I have no idea. +[1558.48 --> 1559.48] Okay. +[1559.48 --> 1560.48] Uh... +[1560.48 --> 1563.48] Austin asks, could one of the stretch goals to be to hire Barnacles? +[1563.48 --> 1565.48] I'm gonna be honest with you guys. +[1565.48 --> 1566.48] It's not like I haven't tried. +[1566.48 --> 1567.48] Yeah. +[1567.48 --> 1568.48] If Barnacles wanted to be hired. +[1568.48 --> 1569.48] Yeah. +[1569.48 --> 1572.48] Then it would probably not be an issue. +[1572.48 --> 1573.48] Um... +[1573.48 --> 1576.48] So, uh, 27 and a half. +[1576.48 --> 1577.48] 27 and a half thousand? +[1577.48 --> 1578.48] Old school unboxing. +[1578.48 --> 1579.48] Old school unboxing. +[1579.48 --> 1580.48] Back in the NCIX courtyard. +[1580.48 --> 1581.48] Nice. +[1581.48 --> 1585.48] So if they hit 27 and a half then we can release like that week, be like old school. +[1585.48 --> 1588.48] James asks, if you don't reach the targets will you still be moving? +[1588.48 --> 1589.48] Yes. +[1589.48 --> 1590.48] We will still move. +[1590.48 --> 1591.48] We have to. +[1591.48 --> 1592.48] There's... +[1592.48 --> 1593.48] We don't have a choice. +[1593.48 --> 1597.48] This place is too small and we have big aspirations. +[1597.48 --> 1599.48] It might take us a little bit longer, but... +[1599.48 --> 1600.48] Um... +[1600.48 --> 1601.48] And like... +[1601.48 --> 1603.48] So again, it comes down to what's the motivation here? +[1603.48 --> 1607.48] We're reaching out to the community to help us kickstart this for... +[1607.48 --> 1609.48] You know, TM or whatever. +[1609.48 --> 1610.48] Yeah. +[1610.48 --> 1611.48] To jumpstart it. +[1611.48 --> 1612.48] Jumpstarter. +[1612.48 --> 1613.48] Jumpstarter. +[1613.48 --> 1614.48] Um... +[1614.48 --> 1618.48] Where is the whole room water cooling video? +[1618.48 --> 1619.48] That... +[1619.48 --> 1622.48] That series of videos will come before we move. +[1622.48 --> 1623.48] But that's all I can really say. +[1623.48 --> 1625.48] Is he working on them now? +[1625.48 --> 1626.48] Um... +[1626.48 --> 1629.48] Well, he was out a day this week with a problem with his wrist. +[1629.48 --> 1634.48] He's been working on NCIX videos a lot this week because we were a week behind on them. +[1634.48 --> 1635.48] Um... +[1635.48 --> 1638.48] I told him next week he should hand off a lot of the NCIX stuff to Taren. +[1638.48 --> 1640.48] And then, um... +[1640.48 --> 1643.48] He should be spending all of his time on water cooling. +[1643.48 --> 1644.48] Okay, cool. +[1644.48 --> 1645.48] Yeah. +[1645.48 --> 1646.48] I want those rolling soon. +[1646.48 --> 1649.48] Yeah, because I was gonna say, people would probably appreciate that sort of an update. +[1649.48 --> 1652.48] I don't want to commit a date at this time because... +[1652.48 --> 1654.48] When are we gonna do mineral oil? +[1654.48 --> 1655.48] Soon. +[1655.48 --> 1656.48] I want to get that going soon. +[1656.48 --> 1657.48] We haven't poured yet. +[1657.48 --> 1658.48] I know. +[1658.48 --> 1659.48] I know. +[1659.48 --> 1660.48] I know. +[1660.48 --> 1661.48] I know. +[1661.48 --> 1662.48] We'll do it. +[1662.48 --> 1663.48] We'll do it. +[1663.48 --> 1665.48] I don't know. +[1665.48 --> 1667.48] The thing that frustrates me most is... +[1667.48 --> 1668.48] Yeah, I get it. +[1668.48 --> 1669.48] You don't want to fund us or whatever. +[1669.48 --> 1670.48] That's fine. +[1670.48 --> 1672.48] But the people who are like, oh, what they do is so easy. +[1672.48 --> 1673.48] It doesn't take any time at all. +[1673.48 --> 1674.48] They just make a video. +[1674.48 --> 1675.48] It's like... +[1675.48 --> 1680.48] I worked probably like 80 or 90 hours this week. +[1680.48 --> 1682.48] You did probably more than that. +[1682.48 --> 1688.48] When I tweeted that the form was down for maintenance, people were like, what maintenance does a website need? +[1688.48 --> 1689.48] What? +[1689.48 --> 1697.48] Just because you don't understand how something works doesn't mean it's not a lot of work. +[1697.48 --> 1703.48] And then we've got people saying, oh, well, other YouTubers do it on their own, like Marques and Austin. +[1703.48 --> 1707.48] It's like, yeah, how many videos a week do they release? +[1707.48 --> 1708.48] Not nine! +[1708.48 --> 1711.48] We release a lot. +[1711.48 --> 1712.48] It's kind of insane. +[1712.48 --> 1716.48] Every single time that we actually say that number, I'm like, whoa, wait, really? +[1716.48 --> 1717.48] Yeah. +[1717.48 --> 1718.48] That's insanity. +[1718.48 --> 1721.48] We release a tech quickies and seven Linus Tech Tips, including Len Show, every week. +[1721.48 --> 1726.48] And that doesn't count the NCIX Tech Tips episodes that I film and Ed edits. +[1726.48 --> 1727.48] So that's another four per week. +[1727.48 --> 1728.48] Yeah. +[1728.48 --> 1729.48] We make a lot of content. +[1729.48 --> 1734.48] And when we were rolling Channel Super Fun, it was 10 every week when we were doing a weekly video. +[1734.48 --> 1739.48] And I expect to roll Channel Super Fun again starting next week. +[1739.48 --> 1740.48] So look forward to that. +[1740.48 --> 1744.48] We've got a lot of stuff that's just been backlogged. +[1744.48 --> 1745.48] It's really cool stuff. +[1745.48 --> 1747.48] We're bailing on that thing, right? +[1747.48 --> 1748.48] Which one? +[1748.48 --> 1749.48] Yeah. +[1749.48 --> 1750.48] Yeah, we bailed on that one. +[1750.48 --> 1757.48] The, the, you want me? +[1757.48 --> 1759.48] Wow, there's 175 new tweets. +[1759.48 --> 1762.48] Now that everyone figured out I'm only looking at tweets. +[1762.48 --> 1767.48] How are the coding streams on YouTube? +[1767.48 --> 1768.48] What? +[1768.48 --> 1770.48] Yeah, they're over at youtube.com slash modus. +[1770.48 --> 1771.48] Yeah. +[1771.48 --> 1774.48] Those, those, we just hosted those for modus. +[1774.48 --> 1779.48] Um, so those were, those were their content that we just kind of, I was a host that hopefully +[1779.48 --> 1783.48] is not ugly and, you know, awful to listen to. +[1783.48 --> 1785.48] Did you host a coding like programming stream? +[1785.48 --> 1786.48] Yeah. +[1786.48 --> 1787.48] Yeah. +[1787.48 --> 1788.48] Talk to an expert kind of thing. +[1788.48 --> 1789.48] No, it wasn't the expert. +[1789.48 --> 1790.48] Okay. +[1790.48 --> 1791.48] Yeah. +[1791.48 --> 1792.48] I was like, what? +[1792.48 --> 1793.48] Yeah. +[1793.48 --> 1798.48] I used my, I used my just enough knowledge to be dangerous to ask the expert the right +[1798.48 --> 1800.48] questions so they could talk about information that was useful. +[1800.48 --> 1801.48] There you go. +[1801.48 --> 1802.48] Okay, that's cool. +[1802.48 --> 1803.48] I thought, I thought those streams were really good first. +[1803.48 --> 1804.48] I thought so too. +[1804.48 --> 1805.48] I thought especially the second two were really good. +[1805.48 --> 1807.48] Yeah, especially the second one on the third one. +[1807.48 --> 1809.48] Um, I like that book giveaway. +[1809.48 --> 1812.48] So CJ asks, I've even had people message me about. +[1812.48 --> 1814.48] Whole room cooling in a new space. +[1814.48 --> 1816.48] I know the videos are coming, but will you move the setup? +[1816.48 --> 1818.48] I would like to move the setup. +[1818.48 --> 1819.48] Yes. +[1819.48 --> 1823.48] It'll require some modification to move it in there, but I would like to set it up in +[1823.48 --> 1824.48] the editing room at the new place. +[1824.48 --> 1827.48] Um, but the videos will be about how we have it set up here. +[1827.48 --> 1832.48] Now that the theory's done and a lot of the grunt work is done, it shouldn't be that insane +[1832.48 --> 1833.48] to move it. +[1833.48 --> 1834.48] It's still not going to be easy. +[1834.48 --> 1835.48] Yeah. +[1835.48 --> 1838.48] Do we have a power source in that game? +[1838.48 --> 1839.48] What? +[1839.48 --> 1840.48] A power source? +[1840.48 --> 1841.48] On the fan? +[1841.48 --> 1842.48] No. +[1842.48 --> 1843.48] Not right now. +[1843.48 --> 1844.48] They're still not working. +[1844.48 --> 1845.48] It's wintertime. +[1845.48 --> 1846.48] I know, but like, it's just funny. +[1846.48 --> 1847.48] Yeah. +[1847.48 --> 1851.48] The funny story about the whole room water cooling system is, uh, the fans on the outside +[1851.48 --> 1852.48] radiator, they all failed. +[1852.48 --> 1853.48] Not the fans. +[1853.48 --> 1854.48] The fans are good. +[1854.48 --> 1855.48] The power supply failed. +[1855.48 --> 1859.48] So none of them are spinning, but all the systems are working fine. +[1859.48 --> 1861.48] It was just like a laptop. +[1861.48 --> 1866.48] Um, Dimitru asks, what will happen to the current location? +[1866.48 --> 1867.48] That's still up in the air. +[1867.48 --> 1868.48] We're not sure. +[1868.48 --> 1873.48] Um, Josh asks, how often will you upload new content to the channel after you've settled +[1873.48 --> 1874.48] in your new place? +[1874.48 --> 1878.48] Uh, Linus Tech Tips isn't going to get more than a daily upload. +[1878.48 --> 1880.48] I doubt that'll ever happen. +[1880.48 --> 1882.48] Uh, although don't quote me on it. +[1882.48 --> 1884.48] Um, but newer channels. +[1884.48 --> 1888.48] So things like TechQuickie, I expect to want to pump more content there. +[1888.48 --> 1893.48] I want Channel Super Fun to have a full lineup of content, not just one random weekly video. +[1893.48 --> 1897.48] So we have a lot of, a lot of plans beyond Linus Tech Tips. +[1897.48 --> 1899.48] I'm really stoked for some of the Channel Super Fun plans. +[1899.48 --> 1900.48] Yeah, buddy. +[1900.48 --> 1904.48] Ryan asks, how much money do you actually need and when are you planning to move? +[1904.48 --> 1906.48] Really there is no fixed amount. +[1906.48 --> 1909.48] Um, however much, which is again, why we're doing the crowdfunding thing. +[1909.48 --> 1920.48] The crowdfunding thing is like a cherry on top to give, you know, Brandon a nice budget to get some nice sets done and some lights going on. +[1920.48 --> 1931.48] It's, it's to, it's to, you know, get stuff like a proper organization system for Luke to be able to keep hardware in places that are not just video cards scattered all over the place. +[1931.48 --> 1939.48] Cause right now the way that he stores things drives me bananas and I'd love to yell at him about it, but there's realistically nowhere that he can put anything anywhere. +[1939.48 --> 1947.48] So it's, it's a matter of how soon we'll be able to make things, how soon we'll be able to make things livable there. +[1947.48 --> 1950.48] So the more there is, the more that will help. +[1951.48 --> 1953.48] Carson asks, when are we expected to move? +[1953.48 --> 1955.48] Um, I guess I'll give you guys a little bit more detail. +[1955.48 --> 1960.48] So for those of you who are saying, Oh, why don't you guys take out a bank loan? +[1960.48 --> 1962.48] Uh, yeah, we're taking out a loan. +[1962.48 --> 1973.48] Uh, but, um, the bank that we're going through the bank that we, that we bank with requires small businesses to have been around for two years before they'll give you any kind of significant loans. +[1973.48 --> 1974.48] Probably not a bad idea. +[1974.48 --> 1976.48] Which is probably not terrible for them. +[1976.48 --> 1978.48] Um, cause another financial crash. +[1978.48 --> 1979.48] So we're not two years old yet. +[1979.48 --> 1984.48] So we are not going to be able to move until we cross that threshold early next year. +[1984.48 --> 1989.48] Um, when will the campaign end? +[1989.48 --> 1990.48] End of the year. +[1990.48 --> 1999.48] How will you be moving the water cooling to the new space by unscrewing it from the wall and carrying it out in pieces and then reassembling it and recutting it on the other side. +[1999.48 --> 2002.48] And hopefully shit run, Jen. +[2002.48 --> 2004.48] Can you say my name? +[2004.48 --> 2007.48] When you say my name, I know it's difficult and that's why you never mentioned me. +[2007.48 --> 2008.48] Lol. +[2008.48 --> 2009.48] Did you not say his name? +[2009.48 --> 2010.48] Or did you say his name? +[2010.48 --> 2011.48] Uh, I tried. +[2011.48 --> 2012.48] Okay, yeah. +[2012.48 --> 2013.48] Yeah. +[2013.48 --> 2015.48] I thought you just said the text and then moved on. +[2015.48 --> 2016.48] I was like, perfect! +[2016.48 --> 2018.48] Duncan wants me to rap live? +[2018.48 --> 2019.48] So not happening. +[2019.48 --> 2020.48] I'll beatbox for you. +[2020.48 --> 2021.48] You ready? +[2021.48 --> 2022.48] Not happening. +[2022.48 --> 2023.48] No. +[2023.48 --> 2024.48] No. +[2024.48 --> 2025.48] No. +[2025.48 --> 2026.48] No. +[2026.48 --> 2027.48] No. +[2027.48 --> 2028.48] No. +[2028.48 --> 2029.48] No. +[2029.48 --> 2030.48] No. +[2030.48 --> 2031.48] No. +[2031.48 --> 2036.48] Yo, my name is Linus and I like the tech. +[2036.48 --> 2037.48] I'm really cool. +[2037.48 --> 2038.48] Yeah, get rekt, kid. +[2038.48 --> 2040.48] Off screen and rap, go on. +[2040.48 --> 2041.48] Yeah. +[2041.48 --> 2042.48] Done. +[2042.48 --> 2043.48] There you go. +[2043.48 --> 2044.48] Wow. +[2044.48 --> 2045.48] I hate you all. +[2045.48 --> 2048.48] Nick should live rap a video. +[2048.48 --> 2049.48] That'd be cool, but... +[2049.48 --> 2050.48] You are musical, though. +[2050.48 --> 2051.48] I'm musical, but I don't... +[2051.48 --> 2052.48] He's not a rapper. +[2052.48 --> 2053.48] I'm not good at, like, freestyling or anything. +[2053.48 --> 2054.48] I'm very, very white. +[2054.48 --> 2055.48] What?! +[2055.48 --> 2056.48] You know what, for a second, I don't know why this is not a great time. +[2056.48 --> 2057.48] You reminded me of Where's Waldo had a voice that night. +[2057.48 --> 2058.48] Yes, hello, I'm Waldo. +[2058.48 --> 2059.48] Oh my god. +[2059.48 --> 2060.48] Did you know that it's Where's Wally, like, everywhere else in the world? +[2060.48 --> 2061.48] Yeah. +[2061.48 --> 2062.48] I don't know why I'm not a rapper. +[2062.48 --> 2063.48] I don't know why this is not a great time. +[2063.48 --> 2064.48] I don't know why this is not a great time. +[2064.48 --> 2065.48] I don't know why this is not a great time. +[2065.48 --> 2066.48] You reminded me of Where's Waldo had a voice that night. +[2066.48 --> 2067.48] Yes, hello, I'm Waldo. +[2067.48 --> 2068.48] Did you know that it's Where's Wally, like, everywhere else in the world? +[2068.48 --> 2069.48] Seriously? +[2069.48 --> 2070.48] Yeah. +[2070.48 --> 2071.48] His name's... +[2071.48 --> 2072.48] It was the North American adaptation. +[2072.48 --> 2073.48] What?! +[2073.48 --> 2074.48] Yeah. +[2074.48 --> 2075.48] I had no idea. +[2075.48 --> 2076.48] Wally is a bad reminder here. +[2076.48 --> 2077.48] Bad face. +[2077.48 --> 2078.48] Wally... +[2078.48 --> 2079.48] Yeah. +[2079.48 --> 2080.48] Yeah. +[2080.48 --> 2081.48] Yeah. +[2081.48 --> 2082.48] Yeah. +[2082.48 --> 2083.48] Yeah. +[2083.48 --> 2084.48] Yeah. +[2084.48 --> 2085.48] Yeah. +[2085.48 --> 2086.48] Yeah. +[2086.48 --> 2087.48] Yeah. +[2087.48 --> 2088.48] Yeah. +[2088.48 --> 2089.48] Yeah. +[2089.48 --> 2090.48] Yeah. +[2090.48 --> 2091.48] Yeah. +[2091.48 --> 2092.48] Yeah. +[2092.48 --> 2093.48] Yeah. +[2093.48 --> 2094.48] Yeah. +[2094.48 --> 2095.48] Yeah. +[2095.48 --> 2096.48] Yeah. +[2096.48 --> 2097.48] Don't know that. +[2097.48 --> 2098.48] Alright. +[2098.48 --> 2099.48] Here we go, Twitch chat. +[2099.48 --> 2102.48] Here is... +[2102.48 --> 2106.48] The mega link to the unaltered... +[2106.48 --> 2108.48] I think this is the unaltered one. +[2108.48 --> 2110.48] I should probably double check. +[2117.48 --> 2120.48] I don't even want to hear it. +[2120.48 --> 2121.48] It's horrible. +[2121.48 --> 2122.48] I hate it. +[2122.48 --> 2123.48] It's not as awesome. +[2123.48 --> 2127.48] It's not playing for me for some reason. +[2127.48 --> 2129.48] It's kind of weird. +[2129.48 --> 2132.48] Someone says broken link is broken. +[2132.48 --> 2133.48] Not yours. +[2133.48 --> 2135.48] I don't think it was yours. +[2135.48 --> 2136.48] I think it was, uh... +[2136.48 --> 2137.48] Ghosts. +[2137.48 --> 2138.48] Oh. +[2138.48 --> 2139.48] Wait, what? +[2139.48 --> 2141.48] No, people are saying it's not working. +[2141.48 --> 2143.48] Yeah, I think it was the bot's link. +[2143.48 --> 2144.48] Oh. +[2144.48 --> 2145.48] Oh, the bot's link broke? +[2145.48 --> 2146.48] I think so. +[2146.48 --> 2148.48] It should come with the decryption key. +[2150.48 --> 2151.48] Oh, here we go. +[2153.48 --> 2154.48] Oh no, that's the, uh... +[2154.48 --> 2155.48] Shoot, that's the Stormtrooper version. +[2155.48 --> 2156.48] Oh, I have the wrong file anyway. +[2156.48 --> 2159.48] Well, I'll go find the right file, I guess. +[2160.48 --> 2161.48] Where is it? +[2161.48 --> 2163.48] Oh, Streets by 50, Rap V2. +[2163.48 --> 2164.48] That's probably it. +[2164.48 --> 2167.48] Sorry guys, I got the wrong one. +[2167.48 --> 2172.48] Why you wave file? +[2172.48 --> 2178.48] Yeah, okay, so I don't think it's either of your links. +[2178.48 --> 2181.48] When you just post it into Twitch, it kind of breaks. +[2181.48 --> 2182.48] Really? +[2182.48 --> 2183.48] Yeah. +[2183.48 --> 2184.48] Oh. +[2184.48 --> 2186.48] After the hashtag, it looks like it breaks. +[2186.48 --> 2191.48] Okay, well, why don't I post it in the, um, the forum campaign thread? +[2191.48 --> 2192.48] There you go. +[2192.48 --> 2193.48] Oh. +[2193.48 --> 2194.48] Okay. +[2194.48 --> 2195.48] Okay. +[2195.48 --> 2199.48] Better just not to? +[2199.48 --> 2200.48] I'd rather not. +[2200.48 --> 2201.48] Okay. +[2201.48 --> 2203.48] Um, we can say we moved. +[2203.48 --> 2204.48] Okay. +[2204.48 --> 2208.48] Yeah, so we moved to a different, um, forum host. +[2208.48 --> 2210.48] It seems a lot better. +[2210.48 --> 2213.48] It seems like wicked way faster. +[2213.48 --> 2215.48] I like the speed a lot. +[2215.48 --> 2216.48] Um... +[2216.48 --> 2218.48] I love the speed. +[2218.48 --> 2223.48] It is much more expensive on top of the whole powered by Samsung SSDs thing. +[2223.48 --> 2224.48] Yeah. +[2224.48 --> 2226.48] Like, a lot more expensive. +[2226.48 --> 2231.48] But, um, I think our forum users, especially the ones that are monthly contributors, just +[2231.48 --> 2232.48] deserve it at this point. +[2232.48 --> 2236.48] We've got a lot of monthly contributors, so we're kind of looking at it going well. +[2236.48 --> 2242.48] Downtime sucks for everyone, especially people who are literally paying to be members of the community. +[2242.48 --> 2245.48] And we had weird problems at our old posts. +[2245.48 --> 2246.48] You don't have to be. +[2246.48 --> 2248.48] Like, uh, one of the... +[2248.48 --> 2249.48] Oh, weird. +[2249.48 --> 2250.48] Yes. +[2250.48 --> 2251.48] What the heck? +[2251.48 --> 2252.48] Oh no, I'm editing your post. +[2252.48 --> 2253.48] Oh. +[2253.48 --> 2254.48] One of the big... +[2254.48 --> 2257.48] One really big problem that we've had in the past is they were doing an upgrade on someone +[2257.48 --> 2261.48] else's server on our rack and they, like, screwed up the entire rack. +[2261.48 --> 2264.48] So our whole server rack was just down for like a day. +[2264.48 --> 2266.48] And we're like, what are you guys even doing? +[2266.48 --> 2267.48] This is ridiculous. +[2267.48 --> 2268.48] Yeah, they were kind of buttheads. +[2268.48 --> 2270.48] And they, they like, weren't helpful about it. +[2270.48 --> 2275.48] Didn't tell us what was going on, so our server was just disconnected for a really long time +[2275.48 --> 2278.48] without any communication from them at all. +[2278.48 --> 2279.48] Um... +[2279.48 --> 2282.48] So the thing we liked about that host was they were really cheap. +[2282.48 --> 2283.48] Oh yeah. +[2283.48 --> 2288.48] Um, and the service when it worked was super adequate for hosting a forum. +[2288.48 --> 2289.48] It was fine. +[2289.48 --> 2292.48] It's just the when it worked part is... +[2292.48 --> 2294.48] Yeah, it was very frustrating. +[2294.48 --> 2299.48] Um, and we still intend to hold onto that server and then, uh, we'll find some kind of +[2299.48 --> 2301.48] other use for it, I think, in the future. +[2301.48 --> 2308.48] Alright, so this is the, the 12 campaign reward link. +[2308.48 --> 2309.48] Apparently forms down. +[2309.48 --> 2310.48] Apparently what? +[2310.48 --> 2311.48] Is it? +[2311.48 --> 2312.48] Forms down. +[2312.48 --> 2313.48] Hashtag rex. +[2313.48 --> 2315.48] Hashtag you rex, yeah. +[2315.48 --> 2319.48] Hashtag second day down. +[2331.48 --> 2336.48] That's weird, I'm on it right now. +[2336.48 --> 2339.48] Then again, I, hold on, I haven't loaded a page in a sec. +[2339.48 --> 2340.48] Yeah, I was just gonna say. +[2340.48 --> 2343.48] Apparently Jack Sack made another fanart thing. +[2343.48 --> 2344.48] Oh yeah? +[2344.48 --> 2346.48] I love his fanart stuff, it's awesome. +[2346.48 --> 2348.48] Yeah, it's awesome to like it. +[2348.48 --> 2349.48] Whoa. +[2349.48 --> 2350.48] Sequel error. +[2350.48 --> 2351.48] Okay. +[2351.48 --> 2358.48] Mine ended up loading, just took forever. +[2358.48 --> 2362.48] Alright, well there you go. +[2362.48 --> 2365.48] Yeah, I gotta see glare on mine, so. +[2365.48 --> 2368.48] That often doesn't mean much. +[2368.48 --> 2369.48] Okay. +[2369.48 --> 2372.48] Do you wanna look at it at all? +[2372.48 --> 2373.48] No, no. +[2373.48 --> 2376.48] Does that just mean we're getting hit too hard? +[2376.48 --> 2377.48] Or, like, something. +[2377.48 --> 2378.48] Those, it's, like, yeah. +[2378.48 --> 2379.48] Don't worry about that one. +[2379.48 --> 2381.48] Okay, but the page doesn't load. +[2381.48 --> 2382.48] I know. +[2382.48 --> 2383.48] Okay. +[2383.48 --> 2384.48] So it'll come back when it- +[2384.48 --> 2385.48] I'm working on it. +[2385.48 --> 2386.48] Oh, I see. +[2386.48 --> 2390.48] Jack Sack, I wish I could view your link, but it's down for me. +[2390.48 --> 2391.48] I'm sorry. +[2391.48 --> 2398.48] It's like you guys don't want me to have a way to send you this, this campaign milestone +[2398.48 --> 2399.48] thing. +[2399.48 --> 2406.48] Maybe I should just, maybe I should just accept that I can't, uh, release the Linus Stormtrooper +[2406.48 --> 2407.48] rap. +[2407.48 --> 2408.48] Can't, can't back out now, bro. +[2408.48 --> 2409.48] Without the Stormtrooper voice. +[2409.48 --> 2411.48] Can't back out, can't back out now, bro. +[2411.48 --> 2413.48] My upload is going really slow. +[2413.48 --> 2415.48] 40 kilobytes per second. +[2415.48 --> 2417.48] So it's gonna need another three minutes. +[2417.48 --> 2420.48] Maybe I'll do some more, uh, some more tweets in the meantime here. +[2420.48 --> 2425.48] Stretch goal idea number 42, Linus and Slick make a rap album. +[2425.48 --> 2427.48] Oh my god. +[2427.48 --> 2428.48] No. +[2428.48 --> 2429.48] Dude. +[2429.48 --> 2433.48] We could make the best rap videos. +[2433.48 --> 2436.48] Define best. +[2436.48 --> 2440.48] Uh, like, like, Burkle's best style of rap videos. +[2440.48 --> 2441.48] Oh. +[2441.48 --> 2443.48] Those would be the best rap videos. +[2443.48 --> 2448.48] Ghost says play the lap ride- the lap ride- the rap live on stream. +[2448.48 --> 2451.48] I can't, I'm not- I can't figure out what's going on, but my laptop isn't passing through +[2451.48 --> 2454.48] audio over HDMI, so I can't. +[2454.48 --> 2459.48] Um, normally my laptop sound works into the capture card, but it's not working right now. +[2459.48 --> 2464.48] Um, do do do do do do do do. +[2464.48 --> 2467.48] Will you say- will you do a goodbye video for the kitchen? +[2467.48 --> 2468.48] Not very likely. +[2468.48 --> 2474.48] I've never actually been organized enough when moving sets to, uh, to do like a farewell. +[2474.48 --> 2481.48] Although, one thing that was kind of funny was- I don't know how many of you remember the old NCIX Tech Tips set with the graffiti in the back, +[2481.48 --> 2492.48] but there was a video that sat unedited for like a couple months that didn't get released until a couple months after we'd started releasing videos on a new set. +[2492.48 --> 2494.48] Like, ages after that. +[2494.48 --> 2496.48] And people were like, oh, holy crap, he moved back to the old set. +[2496.48 --> 2497.48] No, no. +[2497.48 --> 2498.48] No. +[2498.48 --> 2506.48] Um, John says, do you think Linus Media Group will ever become LMG with Linus in an executive non-facing role? +[2506.48 --> 2516.48] Um, I mean, I think that the very, very long-term outlook would obviously be that I don't want to be standing in front of the camera making every single video forever. +[2516.48 --> 2521.48] But, that doesn't mean that I ever want to be completely off camera. +[2521.48 --> 2524.48] So, it's- it's gonna depend on how things go. +[2524.48 --> 2530.48] I mean, if- okay, let's look at other channels that have tried to replace their key personalities. +[2530.48 --> 2531.48] Sometimes it goes well. +[2531.48 --> 2533.48] Um, sometimes it doesn't. +[2533.48 --> 2541.48] I mean, if I brought in a personality that you guys ended up loving ten times more than me, and it's like, yeah, it kinda sucks when Linus comes back and does stuff, then great. +[2541.48 --> 2549.48] And, if I bring in guys that suck and I can never find anyone who's as good as me, other than him, then I guess it'll just be the him show. +[2549.48 --> 2553.48] Um, no, but then- then I'll- I'll stick around for longer. +[2553.48 --> 2557.48] Like, it's- and it- and it- it comes down to, like, what I'm excited about, too. +[2557.48 --> 2558.48] Like, you guys tell me this. +[2558.48 --> 2562.48] When it's a product that I'm really amped about, the video comes across better. +[2562.48 --> 2563.48] And that's always been true. +[2563.48 --> 2570.48] If I stop being amped about technology, I'm not gonna be doing you guys or anyone any favors by continuing to make the videos. +[2570.48 --> 2576.48] And I would be better off trying to find someone to replace me, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. +[2579.48 --> 2580.48] Um... +[2580.48 --> 2589.48] RISE J says, you guys get so many GPUs to review, why don't you do giveaways, because there's no way you use them all. +[2589.48 --> 2599.48] Actually, we use a lot more than you'd think for internal workstations and stuff like that, and we also have to have some kind of permission in place to give away stuff. +[2599.48 --> 2602.48] Um, that's typically the way it works with samples. +[2602.48 --> 2605.48] And we kinda have to have them for video card showdowns. +[2605.48 --> 2608.48] Yes, that's another one, too. And we try not to ask for a half- +[2608.48 --> 2610.48] Don't take my GPUs! +[2610.48 --> 2617.48] Yeah, we try not to ask for half a dozen copies of one card, because then we'd have to do half a dozen reviews of a given card, and you guys would get bored. +[2617.48 --> 2623.48] So most cards, we only have one of, and there's only a few that we have more than one. +[2623.48 --> 2624.48] That's amazing! +[2624.48 --> 2625.48] That's super sick! +[2625.48 --> 2626.48] Oh my god! +[2626.48 --> 2627.48] That's awesome! +[2627.48 --> 2628.48] Where do I find that? +[2628.48 --> 2629.48] I'll send it to you. +[2629.48 --> 2630.48] I want it to you. +[2630.48 --> 2631.48] I'll send you the... +[2631.48 --> 2632.48] Oops... +[2633.48 --> 2635.48] You got it, too? +[2635.48 --> 2637.48] Or send it to you, too. +[2637.48 --> 2638.48] Send it to me, too. +[2638.48 --> 2639.48] Minus... +[2639.48 --> 2644.48] Then I'll spam it in Twitch chat, too. +[2644.48 --> 2647.48] Hold on, I'm gonna spam this in Twitch... +[2647.48 --> 2648.48] Oh, you already did that one. +[2648.48 --> 2649.48] Yeah. +[2649.48 --> 2650.48] Okay. +[2650.48 --> 2651.48] Cause the wrap is ready. +[2655.48 --> 2658.48] Okay, I gotta show you guys this fan art. +[2658.48 --> 2659.48] This is awesome. +[2659.48 --> 2667.48] No offense to all of our... +[2667.48 --> 2668.48] Oh. +[2668.48 --> 2669.48] Well, yeah, that link isn't working. +[2669.48 --> 2670.48] How are you on the site? +[2670.48 --> 2672.48] Uh, I just got on it. +[2672.48 --> 2673.48] Oh, okay. +[2673.48 --> 2674.48] I'll spam the imagery link, too. +[2674.48 --> 2678.48] Wait, well, you spammed it in the chat just now? +[2678.48 --> 2679.48] Imager link, yeah. +[2679.48 --> 2681.48] Oh, but you spammed the other one first? +[2681.48 --> 2682.48] Yeah. +[2682.48 --> 2683.48] That thing is happening. +[2683.48 --> 2684.48] Oh, sorry. +[2684.48 --> 2685.48] That thing... +[2685.48 --> 2692.48] The thing that you don't like that happens sometimes that you understand that happens +[2692.48 --> 2693.48] that causes the form to go down? +[2693.48 --> 2694.48] The thing I understand? +[2694.48 --> 2697.48] Yeah, every single time there's a problem with the form, you're like, is it that thing? +[2697.48 --> 2698.48] Oh, this one? +[2698.48 --> 2699.48] Uh... +[2699.48 --> 2700.48] Yeah, that one? +[2700.48 --> 2701.48] That one. +[2701.48 --> 2702.48] Oh, that one. +[2702.48 --> 2703.48] That one. +[2703.48 --> 2704.48] Oh, okay. +[2704.48 --> 2705.48] Just that again, then. +[2705.48 --> 2706.48] I need to find a way to just... +[2706.48 --> 2711.48] Turn that freaking thing off. +[2711.48 --> 2728.48] Okay, well, at any rate, for those of you who didn't click on Nick's spam, we'll do +[2728.48 --> 2729.48] a screen share here. +[2729.48 --> 2730.48] The WAN show. +[2730.48 --> 2731.48] That internet, yo. +[2731.48 --> 2732.48] That's awesome. +[2732.48 --> 2734.48] I really like that. +[2734.48 --> 2735.48] Which one? +[2735.48 --> 2738.48] The younger Jennifer Aniston right next to it? +[2738.48 --> 2739.48] Yeah. +[2739.48 --> 2741.48] That's exactly what I'm talking about. +[2741.48 --> 2744.48] Are you too young for Jennifer Aniston to even really be a big deal to you? +[2744.48 --> 2747.48] I just don't know the names of movie stars, to be honest with you. +[2747.48 --> 2748.48] No, I don't know. +[2748.48 --> 2749.48] You don't even know Jennifer Aniston. +[2749.48 --> 2751.48] I would have to look her up. +[2751.48 --> 2752.48] You must be too young. +[2752.48 --> 2753.48] I would have to look her up. +[2753.48 --> 2754.48] Cause you were... +[2754.48 --> 2757.48] Okay, cause Friends was a big deal when I was just... +[2757.48 --> 2758.48] Did she have Friends? +[2758.48 --> 2759.48] Oh, she's that chick. +[2759.48 --> 2760.48] Oh, yeah. +[2760.48 --> 2762.48] Like, every male had a crush on her. +[2762.48 --> 2765.48] I never watched Friends too, so there's that. +[2765.48 --> 2766.48] Yeah. +[2766.48 --> 2767.48] That is awesome. +[2767.48 --> 2769.48] I really like that photo a lot. +[2769.48 --> 2770.48] I like it a lot. +[2770.48 --> 2771.48] Or the picture. +[2771.48 --> 2773.48] Not photo, what am I talking about?

+[3055.70 --> 3055.94] No. +[3056.16 --> 3057.10] A contributor tier for 50k? +[3057.10 --> 3058.26] I teach them to rap. +[3059.70 --> 3060.12] Oh, man. +[3060.12 --> 3061.98] It was Twitch chat, I should just stop talking. +[3062.12 --> 3062.36] Right. +[3062.80 --> 3063.00] Yeah. +[3063.64 --> 3065.94] You can't speak what happens in Twitch chat. +[3065.98 --> 3066.56] Yeah, it just doesn't happen. +[3066.56 --> 3067.84] It just starts melting brains. +[3067.84 --> 3072.28] Twitch chat is like one of the few places +[3072.28 --> 3074.86] where the text actually makes more sense +[3074.86 --> 3075.88] than the spoken word. +[3076.18 --> 3077.84] Okay, so for those of you +[3077.84 --> 3079.86] who haven't even heard +[3079.86 --> 3084.10] the proper Stormtrooper version of it, +[3084.74 --> 3085.84] there's a... +[3086.52 --> 3089.14] I feel compelled to share that +[3089.14 --> 3092.08] since the other one is so bad. +[3093.14 --> 3094.90] Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on. +[3094.90 --> 3096.06] Um... +[3096.06 --> 3098.14] Pro tip, the intro wasn't even Linus. +[3098.54 --> 3100.00] Yeah, yeah, actually, that's... +[3100.00 --> 3101.74] There's some behind-the-scenes +[3101.74 --> 3103.36] fun stuff for you guys. +[3103.96 --> 3104.92] Yeah, that was you. +[3105.06 --> 3106.00] The intro was me, +[3106.08 --> 3108.12] and I remember that Luke +[3108.12 --> 3112.02] was like super sick that day +[3112.02 --> 3115.04] and came in anyways to help us out. +[3116.14 --> 3118.30] And Linus, was that like your first day +[3118.30 --> 3120.42] of paternity leave or something? +[3120.68 --> 3121.18] I think so. +[3121.50 --> 3121.78] Yeah. +[3123.56 --> 3124.76] I don't hear any sound. +[3124.90 --> 3129.16] Why don't I hear sound? +[3130.36 --> 3131.88] Well, whatever, you guys have the... +[3131.88 --> 3132.94] No, because I want you to hear... +[3132.94 --> 3133.24] What? +[3134.44 --> 3135.36] Can they hear sound? +[3135.62 --> 3136.14] I don't know. +[3141.84 --> 3142.94] Okay, to be clear, +[3143.06 --> 3144.60] it is me in the outfit. +[3145.78 --> 3146.80] For almost all of it. +[3146.82 --> 3147.64] For almost all of it. +[3147.64 --> 3148.16] The whole rap video. +[3148.28 --> 3149.62] Yeah, for the actual rap video. +[3150.08 --> 3150.56] Just the intro part. +[3150.56 --> 3151.74] Intro where the music's playing. +[3152.30 --> 3152.74] That girl. +[3153.00 --> 3153.70] Yeah, she was awesome. +[3154.64 --> 3156.14] She's like showing up like, +[3156.24 --> 3157.64] hey, come here for the rap video. +[3158.32 --> 3158.60] All right. +[3159.46 --> 3161.48] Brandon did a good job of the... +[3161.48 --> 3162.74] of the filming on this. +[3162.74 --> 3163.32] The shaky cam? +[3163.54 --> 3163.80] Yeah. +[3164.92 --> 3165.82] Oh yeah, that was... +[3165.82 --> 3166.64] They lose here. +[3166.72 --> 3167.60] Yeah, that was fun. +[3167.70 --> 3168.44] That was awesome. +[3168.44 --> 3172.76] Like Ed's cheesy force lightning. +[3175.76 --> 3177.22] Luke, obviously breathing. +[3181.42 --> 3182.06] Yeah, man. +[3182.14 --> 3183.46] We were trying to keep it G-rated. +[3184.40 --> 3185.34] With all the swearing. +[3185.40 --> 3186.44] With all the swearing, yeah. +[3186.52 --> 3187.64] In spite of all the swearing. +[3188.74 --> 3189.48] Chrome mute. +[3189.64 --> 3190.94] Your Chrome was muted, apparently. +[3191.42 --> 3192.28] Chrome was muted? +[3192.42 --> 3194.12] Oh, was that in Mixer? +[3194.18 --> 3195.54] Oh, Chrome is muted in Mixer. +[3195.54 --> 3196.98] Why is Chrome muted in Mixer? +[3196.98 --> 3197.64] Oh, rip. +[3198.72 --> 3199.84] Okay, okay, okay. +[3199.90 --> 3201.18] Well, we're gonna watch one more time +[3201.18 --> 3202.60] with actual sound this time then. +[3204.20 --> 3204.92] Here we go. +[3205.20 --> 3207.20] Okay, add screen region. +[3207.96 --> 3208.86] Full thing. +[3209.40 --> 3209.76] Boom. +[3212.14 --> 3213.40] Okay, yes, it's full screen. +[3213.50 --> 3213.82] I get it. +[3213.86 --> 3214.16] Go away. +[3216.24 --> 3217.58] Okay, so this is where it's me. +[3217.68 --> 3218.58] It's Nick before that. +[3223.08 --> 3223.84] Oh, my God. +[3223.84 --> 3225.98] Oh, my God. +[3225.98 --> 3228.32] WeALL, my God. +[3228.76 --> 3228.86] Yeah, it is the music. +[3228.92 --> 3238.08] Oh, my God away. +[3250.04 --> 3250.32] Come on. +[3250.32 --> 3263.38] I hear you just fine. That's it. It's over now, but I can see why you tried. Your music won't have been great with these except that you died. They go protruding and perfect bass too. So good effort, but better luck next time, fool. +[3263.90 --> 3265.32] Well, there's just a ballin' ass. +[3265.32 --> 3267.56] What the hell did I just watch? +[3267.92 --> 3270.52] Yeah. Rap video swag. +[3270.92 --> 3273.68] That video was way too much fun to make. +[3273.68 --> 3274.58] For sure. +[3274.88 --> 3287.40] That took forever, and the timing was terrible because we were trying to get the song written, recorded, and get everything shot right leading up to when I was leaving to have a baby. +[3287.70 --> 3287.94] Yeah. +[3288.64 --> 3290.88] That was crazy. +[3291.90 --> 3292.30] There you go. +[3292.60 --> 3296.54] A lot of fun, though. It was a lot of fun. We had a good time. +[3298.32 --> 3300.14] What the hell did I just watch? +[3300.80 --> 3302.72] I'm so stoked to wear this. +[3302.72 --> 3304.18] Just around? +[3304.48 --> 3304.76] Yeah. +[3305.80 --> 3306.00] Yeah. +[3306.58 --> 3308.22] Did I tell you that I ordered two? +[3308.70 --> 3317.22] I ordered two of those style sweaters. One is Santa on a Stegosaurus, and the other is Santa on a Game of Thrones candy cane chair. +[3317.68 --> 3318.74] That's ridiculous. +[3319.26 --> 3321.86] I've never even watched Game of Thrones. It's awesome. +[3323.50 --> 3324.30] That's great. +[3325.60 --> 3328.74] People are saying, do we have permission to mix and put this on YouTube? +[3329.38 --> 3329.96] You know what? +[3329.98 --> 3330.36] Heck yeah. +[3330.36 --> 3337.24] Crowdfunding campaign paid for this to be released, so it's out there. +[3337.34 --> 3339.74] I think no matter what you say, it's going to happen. +[3339.86 --> 3340.66] Yeah, basically. +[3340.66 --> 3355.40] The sweaters came from Amazon. Let me see if we can figure out what the designer's name is. +[3355.40 --> 3370.64] Alex Stevens. Alex Stevens on Amazon. A-L-E-X. Stevens with a V is where we got those sweaters from. +[3371.16 --> 3371.54] Okay. +[3371.54 --> 3377.60] The worst part is that it was better than 90% of the wrap-outs, says WikiKid. +[3379.70 --> 3380.64] That's awesome. +[3381.70 --> 3393.20] Well, we've ended up not really talking about the crowdfunding campaign much. I guess I must have addressed it pretty well with the Q&A, because people really didn't have a lot of questions about it. +[3393.20 --> 3398.20] I think the serious dialing back of the stretch goals was just like, all right. +[3398.38 --> 3399.76] Yeah, but we were going to do that anyway. +[3399.88 --> 3400.14] I know. +[3400.14 --> 3406.80] But, and you know, if we were smart, we would have launched it in the middle of the day, so we could have done that throughout the actual day, but yeah. +[3406.80 --> 3406.86] Yeah. +[3406.86 --> 3419.64] Someone asked, why aren't I wearing the Moto 360? I switched back to the iPhone 6 so that I can use it for part of my iMac switched thing, so that I can try out the continuity features. +[3419.96 --> 3423.20] And the iPhone 6 doesn't support the Moto 360, so I'm back on the Pebble Steel. +[3423.44 --> 3426.24] And I'm also done all my notes for my Moto 360 review. +[3426.24 --> 3440.60] So, I had to stop using my Droid Turbo, because I dropped it off at the office for them to shoot B-roll of it today, and switch back to the iPhone 6, and I'm done with my notes for the Moto 360, and the Moto 360 I don't really intend to continue using once I'm done with the review, so. +[3441.60 --> 3441.96] Wrecked. +[3442.28 --> 3442.94] There you go. +[3443.82 --> 3444.98] Wrecked Moto 360. +[3445.72 --> 3446.90] There's some good stuff about it. +[3447.02 --> 3448.92] Don't use an old trash processor next time. +[3449.46 --> 3450.76] This processor's not the problem. +[3451.84 --> 3452.52] Battery life? +[3452.52 --> 3456.00] I get a full day, and that's about as good as you're going to get out of any smartwatch. +[3456.00 --> 3456.92] So they all suck. +[3457.30 --> 3457.46] Yeah. +[3458.52 --> 3459.36] Except this one. +[3460.44 --> 3460.74] Okay. +[3463.48 --> 3465.88] I want my smartwatch to be able to last for, like, a week. +[3467.70 --> 3469.72] My phone should last for, like, three days. +[3471.60 --> 3475.40] The Droid Turbo, by the way, oh, this isn't it, but I don't know if you're going to watch the review. +[3476.08 --> 3476.96] I probably will. +[3477.18 --> 3480.08] But it's not a two-day battery, and that's stupid. +[3480.48 --> 3483.40] I think I call it, quote-unquote, ridiculous in the video. +[3483.40 --> 3485.46] I think we knew that before it came. +[3485.46 --> 3485.74] Yeah. +[3485.90 --> 3489.76] Because they're like, oh, it's a two-day battery or whatever, and then you read the battery spec, and it's like, no, it's not. +[3489.84 --> 3490.98] Like, if you have an Xperia... +[3490.98 --> 3491.32] Is it good? +[3491.58 --> 3494.98] If you have an Xperia Z2 already, that's a 3200 milliamp hour battery. +[3494.98 --> 3507.60] So if you have 30% left at the end of the day, which is 25% to 30% is what I typically end up with with an Xperia, then it has to last in standby all night, which on Android we all know is not good. +[3507.60 --> 3513.90] So you're going to have maybe 20% in the morning, 15% in the morning, depending on how much crap you left running. +[3514.16 --> 3515.98] That gives you 15% for the next day. +[3515.98 --> 3523.88] So if this other phone has 20% more battery than that, then you're going to have 35% for the next day. +[3524.76 --> 3525.16] Obviously. +[3525.66 --> 3526.32] Which is not above 15. +[3526.32 --> 3528.96] And the next day, because they said 48 hours. +[3529.12 --> 3530.22] They didn't say two days. +[3530.46 --> 3531.00] Yeah, yeah. +[3531.02 --> 3533.18] The next day would be an entire another 24-hour period. +[3533.28 --> 3534.02] That's not going to happen. +[3534.14 --> 3534.76] No, no. +[3535.86 --> 3536.04] Yeah. +[3536.34 --> 3537.18] I didn't expect it to be. +[3537.32 --> 3540.46] Mango says, no offense, it sounds so horrible. +[3541.06 --> 3541.60] I know. +[3541.98 --> 3545.76] I was, like, I was mortified when I was recording it. +[3546.00 --> 3547.48] I wanted him to leave. +[3547.48 --> 3550.44] He was busy setting up the Oculus. +[3550.44 --> 3554.88] I think this is the only time he's ever, like, wanted me to not be there. +[3554.88 --> 3557.74] And I tried to, I was off in, like, a kind of a side room. +[3558.48 --> 3560.20] And I tried to be as quiet as I could. +[3560.26 --> 3561.76] And I, like, put headphones in and stuff. +[3562.94 --> 3564.82] And I was trying to, like, usher people away. +[3565.10 --> 3566.70] And, like, that was the good take. +[3567.00 --> 3570.74] Like, when I was first trying, oh, it's embarrassing. +[3571.72 --> 3574.52] Like, I feel stupid doing it. +[3577.18 --> 3577.50] Yeah. +[3577.50 --> 3577.64] Yeah. +[3582.88 --> 3583.20] Ha. +[3583.54 --> 3586.08] Ant asks, will you have air conditioning at the new place? +[3586.44 --> 3586.94] I don't know. +[3587.02 --> 3588.98] I guess it depends whether we hit that stretch goal or not. +[3590.04 --> 3590.86] Oh, jeez. +[3592.54 --> 3592.82] Oh, jeez. +[3592.82 --> 3593.82] Linus the tyrant. +[3594.36 --> 3595.36] Where is that one? +[3595.54 --> 3596.54] I want that one. +[3597.32 --> 3597.92] Air conditioning? +[3598.20 --> 3598.58] Yeah. +[3598.76 --> 3599.54] I want that one. +[3600.40 --> 3603.96] I can tell you the warehouse won't be air conditioned. +[3604.34 --> 3604.70] Right. +[3604.84 --> 3605.90] And that's where we're going to be filming. +[3605.96 --> 3607.56] Because that's just not typical. +[3608.54 --> 3611.26] We can just get those, like, industrial fans, though. +[3611.76 --> 3613.36] And just, like, blow air through. +[3613.40 --> 3614.04] Right at the mics? +[3614.36 --> 3617.50] Sean asked, when is your 980 classified being coming? +[3617.50 --> 3618.38] No, like, we should do it right at the mics. +[3618.64 --> 3619.80] What does that even sound like? +[3619.80 --> 3623.62] When do we have 980 classified on the release schedule for? +[3624.32 --> 3625.76] What are you working on next? +[3625.94 --> 3626.98] Is it Motherboard Roundup? +[3627.40 --> 3628.76] What do you even do all day? +[3628.76 --> 3629.52] Dragon Age. +[3629.68 --> 3630.82] Oh, lordy Dragon Age. +[3630.84 --> 3631.56] With the new thing. +[3631.62 --> 3633.22] Does that system boot yet? +[3633.44 --> 3633.72] No. +[3633.96 --> 3635.24] I brought the Dominators back. +[3635.34 --> 3636.24] I was managing all this. +[3636.54 --> 3636.94] I know. +[3637.38 --> 3637.58] Junk. +[3638.16 --> 3638.70] Well, not junk. +[3638.86 --> 3641.08] That's, uh... +[3641.08 --> 3642.88] Are you actually wondering when you have it on the calendar? +[3644.30 --> 3645.80] Oh, no, the calendars. +[3645.80 --> 3646.76] Nick actually goes and figures it out. +[3646.76 --> 3649.00] Oh, apparently it's on the calendar for Monday. +[3649.20 --> 3649.72] But then there's... +[3649.72 --> 3652.88] The GPU showdown for Dragon Age is also on Monday. +[3653.04 --> 3654.18] Yeah, I think that's... +[3654.18 --> 3656.08] Yeah, it'll be one of those, too. +[3656.28 --> 3657.52] You didn't get a chance to look at this, right? +[3657.52 --> 3658.52] The... +[3658.52 --> 3659.52] The... +[3659.52 --> 3660.18] Yeah, yeah. +[3660.22 --> 3660.98] I checked them out last night. +[3661.04 --> 3661.38] They're nice. +[3661.88 --> 3662.58] Did you, like, listen? +[3662.72 --> 3662.88] Yeah. +[3663.14 --> 3663.96] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3664.18 --> 3664.24] Cool. +[3664.24 --> 3665.50] Because I want to get... +[3665.50 --> 3666.08] They're looking good. +[3666.34 --> 3666.58] Cool. +[3667.48 --> 3668.82] Are you going to keep those ones? +[3668.98 --> 3669.46] Not sure. +[3671.58 --> 3672.14] Uh... +[3672.14 --> 3673.88] Will you do more Apple product reviews? +[3673.98 --> 3674.44] Sure, why not? +[3675.52 --> 3676.38] I don't see why not. +[3676.38 --> 3681.16] New stretch goal idea? +[3681.38 --> 3683.06] Make the rap Linus's ringtone. +[3684.02 --> 3684.94] Not going to happen. +[3685.12 --> 3685.40] No. +[3686.50 --> 3687.38] Did you see... +[3687.38 --> 3689.16] Will asks if we speak any other languages. +[3689.98 --> 3694.24] I used to be somewhat conversant in French, but it's been a really long time, like 10 years. +[3694.78 --> 3695.38] And I used to be... +[3695.38 --> 3702.96] I have functional enough American Sign Language to, like, order food or, like, tell someone +[3702.96 --> 3703.72] where the bathroom is. +[3703.88 --> 3706.38] I used to have fairly functional... +[3706.38 --> 3707.38] German. +[3707.38 --> 3707.82] German. +[3707.82 --> 3708.22] German. +[3708.70 --> 3710.00] I wish I could still speak German. +[3710.20 --> 3711.22] Yeah, Nick did, too. +[3712.38 --> 3712.78] Not... +[3712.78 --> 3715.12] I speak German not so well. +[3715.78 --> 3716.60] Not Benjamin. +[3716.84 --> 3721.04] How do you personally deal with, slash, prevent the indentation of your hair that results +[3721.04 --> 3722.34] from wearing headphones for long hours? +[3722.46 --> 3727.18] Well, I don't know if you've ever seen any behind-the-scenes pictures of me, but I don't +[3727.18 --> 3728.76] really wear headphones very much. +[3728.88 --> 3729.70] I just go like this. +[3729.94 --> 3733.14] Unless I'm at home, and then it's usually night time, and I don't care. +[3733.28 --> 3733.84] People won't see me. +[3734.06 --> 3738.66] It happens to me, but yeah, just, like, fluff it up and then flatten it back down. +[3738.66 --> 3742.42] Jason says we should totally do a cooking video in the kitchen to say farewell to it. +[3742.42 --> 3744.56] I've done a cooking video in that kitchen. +[3745.74 --> 3748.88] That was where I did Cooking with Slick, my, like, most watched livestream ever. +[3750.22 --> 3751.20] I'm not even kidding. +[3751.84 --> 3756.86] I made chicken, and then people cared a lot more about that than my video games. +[3757.06 --> 3759.02] This is how you impress a girl with chicken. +[3759.16 --> 3760.84] That was the whole premise of the video. +[3761.26 --> 3765.68] And I even tied it into, like, this is how you impress her while you're cooking, and, +[3765.68 --> 3768.12] like, after you're done cooking and before you're cooking. +[3768.82 --> 3769.26] Yeah. +[3769.26 --> 3773.24] The captain asks, which WAN show goal are you most nervous about? +[3773.30 --> 3773.82] There's a few. +[3774.14 --> 3776.36] The upper body paint could be really terrible. +[3776.84 --> 3777.54] That's LTT. +[3777.82 --> 3781.32] The shock collars, oh, which, no, just which goal, sorry. +[3781.46 --> 3781.78] Uh-oh. +[3781.88 --> 3783.98] The shock collars could be really bad. +[3784.96 --> 3785.32] Yeah. +[3785.92 --> 3789.16] Painting my car bright pink could be pretty interesting. +[3789.46 --> 3790.98] My wife doesn't know about that. +[3791.12 --> 3791.74] Oh, no. +[3793.08 --> 3794.02] Oh, no. +[3794.34 --> 3795.74] And it's, like, paint rollers. +[3795.74 --> 3797.66] Well, they can bring it up on WAN show, are they? +[3798.02 --> 3798.34] Yeah. +[3798.54 --> 3798.86] Yeah. +[3799.00 --> 3799.36] Oh. +[3799.92 --> 3804.46] My wife is pretty nervous about appearing as a guest on WAN show, so that happens at 65,000. +[3804.74 --> 3805.40] How is that? +[3805.48 --> 3806.78] How is the, oh, yeah. +[3807.14 --> 3809.14] How is the, like, infrastructure for that even going to work? +[3809.34 --> 3809.98] We'll figure it out. +[3810.10 --> 3810.22] Yeah. +[3810.34 --> 3811.88] Get someone to watch the kids. +[3814.40 --> 3817.02] Brian Wilcox asks, why do you not read my tweets? +[3817.02 --> 3820.44] I get a kick out of that. +[3820.56 --> 3824.40] Like, when someone tweets me and says, hey, I tweeted you, but you didn't respond. +[3824.98 --> 3827.22] And I'm just like, I'm, no, not that. +[3827.34 --> 3831.44] But I'm looking at it going, okay, well, I see it now, but you didn't actually send me +[3831.44 --> 3831.94] your question. +[3832.16 --> 3834.56] You haven't linked it to your previous question in any way. +[3835.04 --> 3838.82] I can't even help you if I wanted to, because I can't, I can't even scroll through all my +[3838.82 --> 3839.42] tweets properly. +[3839.48 --> 3840.10] Like, it breaks. +[3840.62 --> 3840.82] Yeah. +[3840.82 --> 3843.54] My mentions break depending on which app I'm using. +[3843.54 --> 3844.64] They break in different ways. +[3845.14 --> 3846.66] And I can't even access everything. +[3847.02 --> 3852.08] Mango says, you don't like my fan art or don't even look at them? +[3852.38 --> 3856.04] Once again, not linked to a previous submission of fan art. +[3856.22 --> 3857.10] No linked fan art. +[3857.26 --> 3857.74] I'm sorry. +[3858.34 --> 3861.34] Muk Fasheen says, garage sale soon? +[3862.60 --> 3866.70] What I was kind of thinking is when we move, we'll do, like, an in-person moving sale. +[3867.68 --> 3867.90] Cool. +[3869.44 --> 3870.54] Get Esther to do this. +[3870.54 --> 3877.86] Bald Linus is not a thing that's going to happen. +[3878.36 --> 3879.86] Someone said, where can I submit remixes? +[3880.02 --> 3880.78] The forum, man. +[3881.82 --> 3882.48] Yeah, dog. +[3882.96 --> 3883.76] Post on the forum. +[3884.60 --> 3887.64] Devin says, I think a comedy channel from you guys would actually be good. +[3887.82 --> 3889.28] I like your channel because it's not boring. +[3889.46 --> 3890.06] You make it fun. +[3890.30 --> 3890.80] Thank you. +[3891.18 --> 3891.46] Yay. +[3891.46 --> 3893.48] All right. +[3895.96 --> 3899.30] Adam says, do you need more employees in this new building with the new goal for the amount +[3899.30 --> 3900.42] of videos you expect to upload? +[3900.68 --> 3901.04] Absolutely. +[3901.40 --> 3903.80] QB and Apple said, how the hell do you transport a mineral oil PC? +[3904.00 --> 3908.46] We will probably cover that in one of the upcoming episodes. +[3908.70 --> 3910.48] It's actually not a short topic. +[3910.48 --> 3910.78] Luke. +[3911.68 --> 3913.28] So, yeah. +[3914.86 --> 3917.56] If you're Luke, you just hug it and hope for the best. +[3918.40 --> 3918.68] Yeah. +[3919.18 --> 3920.88] Yeah, there's a few stories for that. +[3921.56 --> 3922.78] The bomb thing. +[3923.42 --> 3924.74] The bus driver thought it was a bomb. +[3924.76 --> 3925.08] Oh, yeah. +[3925.08 --> 3925.68] I told you about that, right? +[3925.80 --> 3925.96] Yeah. +[3926.50 --> 3926.92] That was awesome. +[3926.92 --> 3929.10] Didn't you carry it over to the island, like on the ferry? +[3929.26 --> 3929.94] Yeah, on the bus. +[3930.06 --> 3935.16] Well, remember when it cracked after that party, there was, I didn't know what to do, +[3935.44 --> 3938.22] and I'm like, who's the only handy person I really know? +[3938.22 --> 3943.06] So, like, my dad, so I'm like, okay, who's going to be able to help me fix this? +[3943.20 --> 3943.76] My dad. +[3944.10 --> 3950.50] So I arm carried the entire thing on buses and then ferries and then more buses all the +[3950.50 --> 3950.84] way home. +[3951.82 --> 3956.24] So, from the island all the way to my parents' house, my dad helps me fix it. +[3956.88 --> 3958.02] And it was, like, leaking. +[3960.64 --> 3961.74] While I was traveling. +[3963.06 --> 3966.46] And, like, leaking mineral oil is not the same as leaking water. +[3966.68 --> 3966.82] No. +[3966.82 --> 3970.64] It's, like, not okay, really. +[3970.70 --> 3970.92] Yeah. +[3972.56 --> 3977.24] I did a few things to try and, like, make it so that oil wouldn't get on things, but, +[3977.28 --> 3977.72] like, yeah. +[3978.94 --> 3981.44] At the same time, it's still a cracked mineral OPC. +[3981.64 --> 3982.04] Yeah. +[3982.48 --> 3984.16] It's still kind of got everywhere. +[3986.16 --> 3986.90] Uh, oh. +[3987.16 --> 3988.12] No, I'm not even going to be here. +[3989.68 --> 3990.08] Okay. +[3990.28 --> 3991.86] Well, I think I should head home. +[3995.16 --> 3995.90] See the fam. +[3995.90 --> 3998.22] Yay, weekend. +[3998.92 --> 4001.10] Where I can do more work. +[4001.92 --> 4002.32] Woo! +[4003.32 --> 4006.40] Time for more work, but also video games for me. +[4007.06 --> 4007.38] Oh. +[4008.00 --> 4008.96] Are you playing tonight? +[4009.92 --> 4010.50] Uh, probably. +[4010.50 --> 4012.22] Do you want to do what we were planning to do? +[4012.90 --> 4014.02] I don't know. +[4014.46 --> 4016.08] I have work to do now. +[4016.08

people and move into a bigger office. +[4031.06 --> 4031.40] Oh. +[4031.40 --> 4032.92] What's the thing for you? +[4033.38 --> 4036.28] Guys, I think we have to shut down the stream and talk about this. +[4036.76 --> 4037.72] Yeah, it's a top secret. +[4038.68 --> 4039.06] Okay. +[4039.30 --> 4039.68] Peace, guys. +[4039.76 --> 4040.22] Bye, everyone. +[4040.22 --> 4040.40] Bye, everyone.

7.56] Thank you for tuning in on your Friday afternoon. +[7.86 --> 13.62] We were actually just noticing that viewership has been a little bit lower than usual over the last little bit. +[13.68 --> 16.00] And we were trying to figure it out and we went... +[16.00 --> 17.12] Exams! +[17.46 --> 19.10] So there's no excuse this week. +[19.16 --> 23.10] You guys should all be tuning in and hearing about the latest technologies. +[23.62 --> 27.70] And shaving technologies from Dollar Shave Club. +[27.70 --> 31.20] And notebook technologies from our sponsor, ASUS. +[31.40 --> 31.76] Jay-Z. +[32.56 --> 33.38] Jay-Z. +[33.74 --> 34.74] I'll tell you what. +[34.88 --> 39.78] If Jay-Z is ever a sponsor of the show, then I will... +[39.78 --> 41.38] I will... +[41.38 --> 42.24] I will... +[42.24 --> 43.20] I will... +[43.20 --> 48.74] I will shave my head with my Dollar Shave Club razor and I will eat my hair. +[49.90 --> 51.26] I will eat every... +[51.26 --> 52.68] With all the shaving cream and stuff? +[52.70 --> 52.92] Yes. +[53.08 --> 54.24] Every last bit of it. +[54.26 --> 54.58] Is that toxic? +[54.82 --> 56.00] I hope not. +[57.70 --> 68.48] I think if I actually died from consuming a product of a sponsor, they would probably stop sponsoring the show. +[69.02 --> 70.60] Mainly because you're dead. +[72.10 --> 73.88] There would be multiple reasons. +[74.02 --> 76.12] We've got a great show for you today, guys. +[76.78 --> 80.78] Towns is abandoned after selling 200,000 copies. +[80.78 --> 84.50] And if you don't know what Towns is, it is a game. +[89.06 --> 91.00] We can't give them everything right now. +[91.12 --> 91.40] I know. +[91.76 --> 92.62] So that's it. +[92.70 --> 93.52] We've got to hold out on them. +[93.90 --> 101.78] Apple is rumored to be buying Beats Electronics for $3.2 billion, which would make it their biggest acquisition to date. +[101.78 --> 104.84] A marriage made in heaven, perhaps? +[105.78 --> 106.80] Match made in heaven? +[106.98 --> 108.76] A marriage of devils? +[110.22 --> 113.84] Well, I don't personally really have anything against Apple products. +[113.86 --> 114.56] Whoa, whoa, whoa. +[114.70 --> 115.44] Let's wait. +[115.74 --> 116.14] All right. +[116.20 --> 116.70] All right. +[116.70 --> 117.20] All right. +[117.22 --> 118.82] We're giving too much information, man. +[119.20 --> 120.86] There's Oculus Rift Bird Simulator. +[121.00 --> 121.54] See, that's it. +[121.68 --> 123.42] I'll show you too much information. +[123.42 --> 128.18] That bowel movement that I had before we started the show? +[129.18 --> 129.62] Wow. +[130.26 --> 131.54] I might have heard that. +[131.62 --> 134.78] Anyways, Amazon patents taking photos against a white background. +[135.18 --> 136.36] And then intro time. +[136.84 --> 138.38] No, you forgot about the Oculus thing. +[138.50 --> 139.04] I just said that. +[139.04 --> 140.32] How could you forget Oculus? +[140.54 --> 141.28] I just said that. +[141.32 --> 142.08] I didn't hear it. +[143.10 --> 143.48] What? +[143.62 --> 146.28] I said Oculus Rift Bird Simulator. +[146.42 --> 147.60] If I didn't hear it, it didn't happen. +[147.60 --> 148.52] And I said that's all the information I'm getting. +[148.52 --> 149.78] It's not like you have a dash cam. +[149.78 --> 151.44] And then you were like, I'm going to give too much information. +[151.44 --> 153.78] That was what led into that whole thing. +[153.88 --> 154.90] Oh, that makes sense. +[155.04 --> 155.32] Okay. +[155.44 --> 156.94] You never set up the intro, did you? +[157.56 --> 158.06] Yeah, I did. +[181.44 --> 184.88] Thank you for tuning into the WAN Show. +[184.88 --> 191.26] Guys, our sponsors today are Asus with the G750JZ Gaming Notebook and Dollar Shave Club. +[191.76 --> 197.28] The fast, easy, inexpensive, and expedient way to save time and money. +[197.48 --> 199.40] Don't worry too much about the redundancy. +[199.60 --> 205.16] Guys, Dollar Shave Club gives you only the features that you need on your razor as opposed +[205.16 --> 206.92] to vibrating dill handles. +[208.16 --> 209.92] I lost track of what we were talking about. +[209.92 --> 210.16] Okay. +[210.60 --> 216.28] So let's move into our first topic, which is just unbelievable. +[217.16 --> 221.16] So this was originally posted on the forum by Pit5000. +[221.16 --> 229.94] And Amazon has allegedly made it so that Linus didn't plug in his notebook before they started +[229.94 --> 230.74] the stream. +[230.88 --> 236.32] So he's going to have to go ahead and just pray to the technology gods that this is going +[236.32 --> 236.72] to be... +[236.72 --> 237.28] Oh, yeah! +[238.66 --> 239.32] That's not good. +[239.32 --> 240.74] Ah, that's really terrible. +[240.94 --> 242.22] Not sure what happened there. +[242.70 --> 244.64] Why the sound? +[244.74 --> 246.20] Let's try that one more time. +[246.28 --> 251.34] I apologize sincerely to our lovely viewers who did not want to hear that HDMI. +[251.70 --> 255.00] Oh, the title of the show is wrong. +[255.58 --> 257.62] Thank you for that, Nick. +[257.68 --> 264.32] We actually have a new guy, Nick, who is responsible for reminding me of things that should have been +[264.32 --> 264.64] done. +[264.64 --> 268.48] Yes, I'm really sorry about that noise. +[268.66 --> 269.58] I apologize. +[270.74 --> 271.42] Did it update? +[271.52 --> 271.90] Are we good? +[272.00 --> 272.46] There we go. +[272.66 --> 273.58] It was like, error. +[273.76 --> 275.66] I was like, okay, do it again. +[276.22 --> 277.50] Thank you, Twitch. +[278.40 --> 279.50] You are so awesome. +[279.80 --> 280.42] I love you. +[280.94 --> 281.26] Okay. +[281.40 --> 282.02] Well, that's better. +[282.20 --> 282.46] All right. +[282.86 --> 285.64] So Pit5000 posts... +[286.30 --> 287.42] This is great. +[287.42 --> 293.18] An article that originally appeared on Gizmodo.com about Amazon's revolutionary new patent, +[293.18 --> 296.02] taking photos on a white background. +[296.22 --> 302.54] Now, to be clear, this isn't pure patent troll asshattery. +[302.64 --> 302.88] Yeah. +[302.88 --> 306.06] It's just mostly patent troll asshattery. +[306.34 --> 314.14] And to be clear, patent troll mostly refers to when the company uses their patents... +[314.14 --> 316.02] To be aggressive about things and attack people. +[316.14 --> 317.08] To attack others. +[317.08 --> 324.12] And really, the funniest thing about this patent to me is not that Amazon filed for it or that +[324.12 --> 327.08] it was granted, but that... +[328.08 --> 329.22] No, I don't know what it is. +[329.22 --> 333.24] I'm least surprised that they filed for it because big companies just file for everything. +[333.42 --> 333.60] Yeah. +[333.60 --> 335.20] Just to see if they can make something stick. +[335.20 --> 338.78] Like, I'm extremely surprised it was ever granted, and I'm sure they are too. +[339.12 --> 342.12] But there's some specific interesting things. +[342.20 --> 348.18] They go down into specifics on the level of how much wattage the lights use, what ISO your +[348.18 --> 350.76] camera has to be at, what f-stop your camera has to be at. +[350.78 --> 351.48] Here's a diagram. +[351.70 --> 354.46] Exact positioning of all the lights and all the cameras. +[354.60 --> 356.86] Like, it's insanely specific. +[356.86 --> 358.70] If you go... +[358.70 --> 358.92] Yeah. +[359.08 --> 365.90] You can see some of it here, and if you go to the second source in the dock, you can actually +[365.90 --> 368.78] scroll down and then see all the crazy specifics that are on there. +[369.36 --> 370.60] So the second source right there. +[370.74 --> 370.90] Yeah. +[370.98 --> 373.44] So here's the actual patent office. +[374.18 --> 374.26] Yeah. +[374.30 --> 375.64] I'm just going to switch over there. +[376.64 --> 377.70] So, I mean... +[377.70 --> 377.92] Okay. +[378.02 --> 380.22] I guess the thing that surprises me... +[380.22 --> 380.66] Here. +[380.84 --> 382.14] These are all the crazy specifics. +[382.14 --> 382.24] Yeah. +[382.24 --> 386.12] So, wherein the second rear light source is further positioned at a distance above the floor +[386.12 --> 390.36] that is about 1.5 to 2.5 times the first distance and oriented at a downward 45 degree angle +[390.36 --> 391.06] relative to the floor. +[391.18 --> 392.84] And it's like this entire thing. +[393.20 --> 394.94] So, you know what? +[395.08 --> 395.30] No. +[395.60 --> 399.44] The thing that surprises me is that Amazon filed for this. +[399.60 --> 399.82] Yeah. +[400.18 --> 401.78] As opposed to that it was granted. +[401.90 --> 403.72] Because it's specific enough. +[404.62 --> 409.40] Basically, the idea is that Amazon doesn't want to waste resources. +[409.40 --> 410.50] And really, no one does. +[410.50 --> 414.50] They don't want to waste resources touching things up in post-processing. +[414.50 --> 418.42] We waste a fair bit of time around here using a green screen. +[418.42 --> 423.40] Because when you have a green screen, if the lights aren't exactly the same that time, +[423.50 --> 428.16] or the actor stands a little bit further back or further forward, or whatever the case may +[428.16 --> 431.96] be, you can end up with a situation where you have to touch it up and you have to tweak +[431.96 --> 433.30] it in order to get it to look right. +[433.88 --> 434.24] Amazon's... +[434.24 --> 435.96] You won't be able to tell because of the pixels. +[436.32 --> 436.74] That's right. +[436.74 --> 437.24] Right. +[437.24 --> 440.58] Amazon's technique requires no touch-ups. +[441.16 --> 442.94] And that's what they're patenting. +[443.00 --> 447.62] They're patenting a perfect technique for taking photos on a white background so that +[447.62 --> 449.44] no touch-ups are required. +[449.62 --> 452.34] So, I can kind of see why it would be granted. +[452.70 --> 455.86] The thing I don't understand is why Amazon bothered to file it. +[455.92 --> 457.16] Because of two things. +[457.16 --> 463.64] Number one is that by filing this extremely detailed patent, all they've effectively done +[463.64 --> 469.36] is given anyone and their dog the ability to replicate their supposed perfect technique +[469.36 --> 470.78] that has never been done before. +[470.92 --> 471.12] Yeah. +[471.22 --> 472.90] For taking perfect product photos. +[473.22 --> 479.16] The other thing is that they could never prove that anyone reading this patent and replicating +[479.16 --> 481.28] their exact technique used it. +[481.28 --> 486.08] Someone could just say, oh, well, no, I had the pedestal slightly lower. +[486.22 --> 488.28] It was at 39.5 degrees. +[489.78 --> 490.22] So... +[490.22 --> 493.86] There's so many very specific things that you could change by a very small amount and then +[493.86 --> 494.46] dodge the patent. +[494.68 --> 499.22] So, I don't understand the point of it. +[501.56 --> 503.70] Maybe you guys can enlighten me. +[503.78 --> 504.20] You know what? +[504.28 --> 505.12] Twitter blitz. +[506.34 --> 507.48] Obviously, I know. +[507.48 --> 511.54] I don't need to see the usual rant about how the patent system is flawed. +[512.20 --> 513.02] We know. +[513.20 --> 514.04] Everyone knows that. +[514.04 --> 514.80] It's terrible. +[515.02 --> 515.48] And this... +[515.48 --> 517.94] Honestly, this is going to help that case a lot. +[518.00 --> 518.36] Yeah. +[518.64 --> 520.06] Because, like, this is ridiculous. +[520.46 --> 521.72] I mean, it is ridiculous. +[522.06 --> 526.02] But with some of the stuff that we've seen get through, it doesn't surprise me that it +[526.02 --> 526.58] got approved. +[526.84 --> 532.52] But I would like to hear you guys say, you know, does this seem like the kind of thing +[532.52 --> 534.80] that Amazon should have even bothered with? +[534.80 --> 538.16] Or does it seem like the kind of thing that they... +[538.16 --> 539.36] Well, yeah. +[540.48 --> 542.98] There's only really one answer here, isn't there? +[543.06 --> 543.56] You know what? +[543.92 --> 545.20] Random Twitter blitz. +[545.42 --> 548.82] Hit us up on at Linus Tech and let us know something. +[549.48 --> 549.92] Anything. +[550.16 --> 550.94] We love you guys. +[551.02 --> 552.48] We just want to hear from you. +[553.24 --> 554.62] You never call. +[558.02 --> 562.10] Oh, how funny that it's Mother's Day coming up and that's the first thing on your mind. +[562.74 --> 563.78] I was... +[563.78 --> 565.14] Guilty conscience much? +[565.14 --> 565.22] Not yesterday, but the day before. +[565.48 --> 566.40] I was, like, just there. +[566.52 --> 567.30] Guilty conscience. +[567.30 --> 568.78] I've been to my parents' house twice this week. +[568.80 --> 569.22] Guilty conscience. +[569.50 --> 570.34] And the week's not even over. +[570.44 --> 574.72] I tried to go visit my mom, but she was too busy with her grandson at the pond to take +[574.72 --> 575.46] her phone with her. +[575.52 --> 578.14] So I sat in the parking lot at their apartment building for an hour. +[578.94 --> 580.70] I was able to make good use of the time. +[580.78 --> 583.52] I switched over from the 1M8 to the 5S. +[584.20 --> 585.36] So, bam. +[585.62 --> 586.50] When's your review coming for that? +[586.50 --> 587.24] Thanks to my mom. +[587.34 --> 588.44] I'm an Apple user again. +[588.44 --> 592.86] It's going to be coming probably not this weekend, but next weekend is the plan. +[592.96 --> 598.48] So I'll be doing, like, a retrospective, what it was like being an iOS user and then +[598.48 --> 600.62] an Android user, now an iOS user again. +[600.72 --> 602.52] But I'll spoil the ending for you guys. +[602.60 --> 604.22] I am switching back to the 1M8. +[604.60 --> 604.82] Oh. +[604.82 --> 606.76] So that's going to happen. +[606.92 --> 611.28] What I'd really like to do is give the Moto X a longer try, because I only really used +[611.28 --> 613.92] it for my review, and I didn't use it for as long as I would have liked. +[614.02 --> 618.92] So he's borrowing the Moto X, because he can't keep his phones in one place, or not broken. +[619.28 --> 623.54] But I'd like to give the Moto X another shot, and then I'll probably end up on the 1M8 again. +[625.48 --> 630.46] One thing I like about the Moto X is that, you know, I don't know if the 1M8 can do this, +[630.48 --> 631.70] but I found a lot of Android phones. +[631.96 --> 633.84] The OK Google thing doesn't really work. +[634.82 --> 636.48] Siri is amazing. +[636.90 --> 639.92] With Moto X, you can just say, OK Google, and it'll start working. +[639.94 --> 640.44] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[640.44 --> 640.94] That's unique. +[641.56 --> 641.76] Yeah. +[641.86 --> 642.02] Yeah. +[642.20 --> 643.20] But, like, ugh. +[643.34 --> 644.26] Why isn't that on everything? +[645.40 --> 647.40] Siri is amazing. +[647.58 --> 648.52] I've never used it. +[648.54 --> 649.76] So, get this. +[649.80 --> 651.12] I didn't even know if it could do this. +[651.12 --> 656.46] The thing about Google now is that you have to kind of, like, Google what it can do, +[656.64 --> 658.52] and then you have to, like, remember what it can do. +[658.60 --> 659.28] It's not intuitive. +[660.04 --> 662.42] Last night, I set an alarm for 8.30. +[663.14 --> 666.90] And I was like, my wife was like, you're not going to get up at 8.30. +[666.98 --> 668.40] I was like, no, no, I'm going to get up at 8.30. +[668.44 --> 670.28] She's like, you're not going to get up at 8.30. +[670.44 --> 671.48] I'm going to wake up. +[671.86 --> 673.44] I'm not going to be able to go back to sleep. +[673.90 --> 675.54] And you're not going to get up until 9. +[675.78 --> 676.98] So, set your alarm until 9. +[677.04 --> 678.60] And I was like, motivate me. +[679.00 --> 680.96] And so, I set my alarm to 9. +[681.58 --> 687.92] And so, all I had to do was be like, tomorrow's alarm for 8.30, change it to 9 o'clock, or +[687.92 --> 688.82] something along those lines. +[688.90 --> 691.18] Like, in my own vernacular, I just told it what to do. +[691.32 --> 693.70] And it's like, okay, I changed that for you. +[694.06 --> 695.44] And, like, I didn't even believe it. +[695.74 --> 697.62] I just, like, I had to double check. +[697.64 --> 699.56] Yeah, I don't think you could do that with Google now. +[699.62 --> 701.66] And I was just like, holy crap. +[702.54 --> 703.58] Google has... +[703.58 --> 705.26] I think you could do it in two steps. +[705.26 --> 707.82] I think you could remove the alarm, and then you could create a new one. +[708.60 --> 709.70] But it's not as elegant. +[709.84 --> 713.04] And, like, Google's voice calling is ridiculous. +[714.18 --> 715.44] It's stupid. +[715.72 --> 716.20] Voice calling? +[716.30 --> 716.54] What do you mean? +[716.56 --> 718.40] Yeah, if you're like, call whoever, mobile. +[718.80 --> 721.94] It's like, would you like to call this person? +[722.16 --> 723.34] Yes, I just said that. +[723.64 --> 725.54] Would you like to call home, mobile? +[725.60 --> 726.68] Yes, I just said that! +[727.82 --> 728.22] Apple? +[729.22 --> 731.00] Call my wife, mobile. +[731.60 --> 732.24] Calling mobile. +[732.76 --> 733.06] Ringing. +[733.34 --> 734.50] The only people I really call... +[734.50 --> 734.78] Stupid. +[734.78 --> 736.54] All are in my favorites anyways. +[736.96 --> 740.78] So it's almost faster for me to just be like, click on phone, click on person. +[740.94 --> 742.62] But, like, driving and stuff? +[743.04 --> 743.22] Yeah. +[743.42 --> 745.02] Yeah, like, I have reasons that I... +[745.02 --> 747.08] Because normally, yeah, I'll dial... +[747.08 --> 748.60] And there are things that I miss about Android. +[748.74 --> 751.04] Like, Apple doesn't have T9 dialing. +[751.66 --> 753.00] Which is awesome. +[753.42 --> 753.62] Yeah. +[753.80 --> 756.40] Like, head explode awesome the first time I saw it. +[757.22 --> 759.40] And that's how I dial most of the time. +[759.40 --> 763.38] But Siri is so much easier to use than Google now that I just absolutely love it. +[763.38 --> 767.14] I'm not super great with Google now, so someone might... +[767.14 --> 771.36] Yeah, someone's probably tearing me apart because there's some exact way that you can word it. +[771.36 --> 771.64] Yeah. +[771.64 --> 772.80] So that Google now will understand you. +[772.80 --> 772.90] Yeah. +[772.90 --> 773.52] But I don't care. +[773.62 --> 775.20] That's not a great user experience. +[775.38 --> 779.14] That's one thing, even without using Siri, that I've been kind of able to pick up. +[779.14 --> 781.80] Spark Fox is like, don't even start on S-Voice. +[782.24 --> 782.90] Well, S-Voice... +[782.90 --> 783.68] Sorry, go ahead. +[783.82 --> 784.30] No one cares. +[785.42 --> 789.66] Didn't they do a thing recently about, like, how much people actually use the S-Apps? +[790.16 --> 791.42] It was like, not at all. +[792.54 --> 793.76] I can't remember who did that. +[793.82 --> 794.58] I have no source. +[794.82 --> 796.30] I just, I think that happened. +[796.68 --> 797.84] No, I missed that. +[797.94 --> 799.42] That sounds fantastic, though. +[799.60 --> 800.44] I already love it. +[800.44 --> 805.04] If you've ever seen her, Siri seems more like the AI operating systems in her. +[805.48 --> 810.50] Google now seems more like the thing he's using before that, but like a really early version of it. +[810.98 --> 811.30] Right. +[811.52 --> 812.96] Because you can kind of talk to Siri. +[813.64 --> 813.84] Yep. +[813.86 --> 815.40] You can't really talk to Google now. +[815.46 --> 817.30] If you try to talk to it, it'll just Google what you said. +[818.06 --> 820.04] I hate that so much. +[820.04 --> 820.76] I hate that too, yeah. +[820.98 --> 822.82] It makes me so mad. +[823.24 --> 824.48] Like, no, I didn't want it to happen. +[824.48 --> 824.92] So mad. +[824.92 --> 828.26] If I wanted you to Google something, I would have said, like, Google search and then what I wanted. +[828.36 --> 831.24] You know what pisses me off most about Google now? +[831.38 --> 832.40] Is I live in Surrey. +[833.16 --> 834.12] I live in a city. +[834.12 --> 834.60] Right, right, right. +[834.60 --> 836.80] I live in a city called Surrey, okay? +[837.12 --> 841.82] And so half the time I try to navigate anywhere, it's like something, something, Siri. +[841.96 --> 842.16] Siri. +[843.44 --> 846.90] Whereas Siri knows what I'm talking about. +[847.80 --> 850.96] It can tell the difference between Surrey and Siri. +[851.90 --> 853.34] And that is impressive to me. +[853.34 --> 858.36] All right, so that actually led in really well to a couple of topics here. +[858.56 --> 862.86] So number one was, oh, balls, where is it? +[862.96 --> 863.08] What? +[863.52 --> 866.86] Yes, Stephen Hawking says, AI could be our worst nightmare. +[867.02 --> 867.80] You were talking about her. +[867.92 --> 869.50] That is a very bad quote. +[870.30 --> 872.54] Or worst mistake in history or something. +[872.80 --> 875.82] Yeah, because they're grabbing, like, the second half of it. +[876.46 --> 880.78] It could be, like, their, it could be the best thing or it could be the worst mistake. +[880.78 --> 891.40] Yeah, so, so fortunately, Minimalist, the gent who posted this, or lady who posted this on the forum, has the actual quote, which is, sort of, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[891.60 --> 892.10] It's good. +[892.16 --> 896.26] Saying it could be the most significant thing to ever happen in human history. +[896.48 --> 897.22] Oh, no, wait. +[897.30 --> 898.08] No, no, he didn't. +[898.38 --> 899.18] Oh, bollocks. +[899.18 --> 900.68] All right, so we'll have to go here. +[900.98 --> 904.86] Could be our worst mistake in history, but that is a very sensationalist headline. +[906.24 --> 908.46] Ah, okay, forget it. +[908.52 --> 910.08] Luke already covered it pretty well. +[910.18 --> 917.30] So the idea is that what he actually said is that it could be the greatest thing ever, or it could also be our worst mistake. +[917.38 --> 920.66] Because we can't predict what... +[920.66 --> 920.90] It is. +[921.28 --> 925.68] Although we are facing potentially the best or worst thing to happen in human... +[925.68 --> 927.72] To happen to humanity in history. +[927.90 --> 932.56] So they grabbed, like, the second half of a sentence, then were like, oh my god! +[932.62 --> 934.74] But what he actually said was best or worst. +[935.40 --> 940.36] And I'm gonna post this, I'm gonna post this link in the Twitch chat, because that's something that we should always do in general. +[940.64 --> 940.76] Yeah. +[940.76 --> 942.76] And, um, you know what? +[942.82 --> 943.48] I was really... +[943.48 --> 944.92] I was proud of the internet today. +[945.52 --> 949.18] Because I was reading this article, and I was like, oh, great article. +[949.38 --> 950.90] But, you know, I wonder what people think about it. +[950.90 --> 952.68] It's got, like, a bajillion comments under it. +[953.52 --> 969.50] George Dvorski here actually posted, like, a cogent and well-structured and respectful sort of disagreement with what everyone else is saying that I really quite enjoyed reading. +[969.50 --> 970.88] Or maybe that's not the right one. +[971.00 --> 971.40] Oh, crap. +[971.50 --> 971.84] Hold on. +[972.44 --> 973.42] Which one was it? +[975.40 --> 979.22] Those look like a lot of very well-thought-out replies, which is not very common. +[979.34 --> 981.32] I thought that was the article that you were reading through. +[981.38 --> 981.88] This is the one. +[981.94 --> 982.34] This one's right. +[982.46 --> 986.50] George Dvorski's thing is absolutely awesome, and he kind of talks about how... +[987.22 --> 990.24] I think that's PV talking to George Dvorski. +[990.26 --> 990.76] Oh, to George... +[990.76 --> 991.38] Okay, PV. +[991.56 --> 996.98] PV, you are the man or woman, because that is a great response. +[996.98 --> 1007.32] And it just kind of talks about how a lot of the fear that people have of AI is based on the assumption that AI would behave the way that humans do. +[1007.64 --> 1014.78] And that it would perceive a lesser being as something it has to crush or has to destroy. +[1015.34 --> 1018.46] And he kind of outlines three likely scenarios. +[1018.64 --> 1023.38] So scenario A, which is that the AI attempts to destroy humanity. +[1023.38 --> 1026.30] Scenario B, that the AI attempts to help humanity. +[1026.74 --> 1029.50] And scenario C, that it just does nothing at all. +[1029.98 --> 1042.88] And the argument that AI would probably choose option C or option B without us noticing, so a combination of the two, seems most likely if a computer were to operate from a purely logical perspective. +[1043.00 --> 1046.00] What does it stand to gain destroying us, really? +[1046.92 --> 1048.72] Well, probably a better environment. +[1048.94 --> 1050.12] A better environment for what? +[1050.16 --> 1050.64] It's metal? +[1050.78 --> 1052.22] It's not like it's going to take up space. +[1052.22 --> 1054.42] But it needs to be able to gain electricity. +[1054.42 --> 1058.58] If it has solar electricity, we could possibly pollute the sky or ruin things. +[1060.32 --> 1060.68] Right. +[1062.08 --> 1066.60] If its only goal is gaining electricity, we are organisms that are using electricity as well. +[1066.68 --> 1068.68] So if it got rid of us, then it could use all the electricity. +[1068.78 --> 1070.70] Which assumes that it needs more electricity. +[1070.72 --> 1071.96] Which assumes that it needs more. +[1072.60 --> 1073.30] Yeah, I don't know. +[1073.32 --> 1074.32] I haven't even read this. +[1074.38 --> 1075.74] I'm just throwing in devil's advocacy. +[1075.74 --> 1082.86] Yeah, I mean, so anyway, this writer makes a very, very strong argument for it probably doing nothing. +[1083.56 --> 1085.96] And honestly, that's kind of my side of it as well. +[1086.22 --> 1090.60] It's because we would pretty much have to program in the hate for us for that to even happen. +[1090.72 --> 1091.12] Or not. +[1091.12 --> 1094.72] I mean, because the whole thing, the whole AI thing... +[1094.72 --> 1095.38] Is that it can learn. +[1095.46 --> 1098.92] Is that it can learn and it can come up with its own ideas. +[1099.40 --> 1107.76] And if that idea happens to be a way to improve itself or to manipulate people to improve it or whatever else the case may be, +[1107.76 --> 1113.28] I suspect a very smart being would want to do all that without being noticed. +[1114.56 --> 1115.18] That's all. +[1115.36 --> 1115.48] Yeah. +[1116.76 --> 1117.20] All right. +[1117.32 --> 1120.88] So, and that actually led really well into one of our... +[1120.88 --> 1121.32] Oh, you know what? +[1121.36 --> 1122.36] Let's do our Twitter blitz. +[1122.60 --> 1122.78] Sure. +[1122.78 --> 1127.64] And then we'll move into one of the other things that led pretty well into one of our topics here, +[1127.74 --> 1133.04] which was Samsung's head of mobile design resigns after the Galaxy S5's poor reception. +[1133.04 --> 1139.14] So, I actually, I definitely, I, you know, Samsung's one of those companies that just, +[1139.24 --> 1141.28] I don't know what it is, but they're pretty fun to beat up. +[1143.00 --> 1147.44] You know, like I love a lot of things about them, but other times they just make me, +[1147.48 --> 1149.52] make me want to shake my head and cry. +[1149.92 --> 1150.48] All right. +[1150.54 --> 1153.18] So, Mark says, Linus, why do you use IE? +[1153.42 --> 1158.64] Because this is a fresh OS and IE is what I'm logged into everything with. +[1159.12 --> 1160.46] There's my Fox on that computer. +[1160.52 --> 1162.22] I know, but I'm not logged into everything. +[1162.22 --> 1163.04] I'm lazy. +[1163.32 --> 1164.94] Don't forget the outro this time. +[1165.00 --> 1165.60] Thank you, Joey. +[1166.28 --> 1167.92] Oh, here's Linus and his Lambo. +[1167.94 --> 1168.98] Where is that picture? +[1169.28 --> 1172.54] Whenever anyone photoshops anything, that's always the picture of you that they use. +[1172.76 --> 1173.24] This picture? +[1173.40 --> 1173.60] Yeah. +[1174.04 --> 1183.82] It is from a thumbnail on an ancient NCIX Tech Tips outside of the old NCIX, like before you. +[1183.98 --> 1186.52] No, I know, but you don't have it on any profiles or anything anymore? +[1186.58 --> 1190.90] I used to have it on my first Google Plus profile. +[1190.90 --> 1192.24] So, I'm like, how is it? +[1192.30 --> 1194.72] Anyways, I just, I see it so often. +[1195.72 --> 1198.34] This is, you can tell the quality of this one is quite poor. +[1198.58 --> 1198.72] Yeah. +[1198.72 --> 1201.56] So, this could have been pulled from someone else putting it somewhere. +[1201.74 --> 1202.36] Oh, okay. +[1202.50 --> 1204.60] So, I think that's how things spread on the internet. +[1204.60 --> 1204.84] That makes sense. +[1205.00 --> 1205.14] Yeah. +[1205.84 --> 1208.40] As the patent is so specific, it's fairly worthless. +[1208.66 --> 1210.46] Not like the covers everything related Apple ones. +[1210.64 --> 1211.04] Exactly. +[1211.22 --> 1212.58] And that is exactly my point. +[1212.78 --> 1212.94] Why? +[1212.94 --> 1213.48] It's so confusing. +[1213.76 --> 1214.14] Why do they even bother? +[1214.26 --> 1217.54] How is it even worth the thousands of dollars that it costs to file a patent? +[1218.12 --> 1218.40] Yeah. +[1218.40 --> 1223.88] All they're doing is revealing how I could go and build that studio tomorrow. +[1224.88 --> 1225.94] Thank you, Amazon. +[1226.16 --> 1226.34] Yeah. +[1226.52 --> 1227.52] Not that I'm going to do that. +[1227.54 --> 1228.08] Of course not. +[1228.12 --> 1228.76] Because we use green. +[1228.76 --> 1229.96] We might do something similar, but I'm not saying. +[1229.96 --> 1231.84] Yeah, we could do it with green instead of white. +[1232.08 --> 1232.32] Yeah. +[1232.82 --> 1235.26] When is the NCIX Ultimate NAS setup video coming? +[1235.40 --> 1236.42] At some point. +[1236.50 --> 1237.06] I'm not sure. +[1237.12 --> 1238.60] It's up to wheels over there. +[1238.84 --> 1240.12] And why no guests and when? +[1240.22 --> 1241.50] Quite frankly, because I'm lazy. +[1242.18 --> 1245.30] Intel Z97 is out with Haswell Refresh coming on Sunday. +[1245.30 --> 1251.04] I've never understood why Intel does this, or AMD for that matter, where they launch a chipset without a CPU or vice versa. +[1252.24 --> 1262.68] So, I mean, we have a literal stack of Z97 boards that I haven't even looked at because why would I even bother benchmarking them with non-Haswell Refresh chips? +[1262.90 --> 1264.34] I don't understand. +[1264.92 --> 1269.58] So we'll wait until some Haswell Refresh stuff lands and then we'll get on that for you guys. +[1270.96 --> 1271.44] Okay. +[1272.04 --> 1273.28] Did you know about Boink? +[1273.70 --> 1274.18] Yes. +[1275.30 --> 1281.02] We have a Boink team on the forums that is, like, huge. +[1281.20 --> 1281.34] Yes. +[1281.34 --> 1283.04] So if you're interested in joining, check it out. +[1283.22 --> 1287.08] We're top in Canada for, like, a few different things and we're world recognized. +[1287.46 --> 1288.14] So, yeah. +[1288.74 --> 1291.04] We also have a giant folding team if you want to join that too. +[1291.16 --> 1294.32] The folding team is actually bigger in relation than the Boink team is. +[1294.32 --> 1303.06] David Cooper says, if you make a great AI, someone will eventually tell it to do something evil, but that assumes the AI can't think for itself, which it can because it's AI. +[1303.06 --> 1303.90] I don't listen to anyone. +[1304.16 --> 1304.56] Awesome. +[1304.72 --> 1305.24] Jake Plush. +[1305.32 --> 1305.92] Thank you. +[1306.52 --> 1308.78] Rob says, I just ordered some IE80s. +[1308.78 --> 1309.46] AI80s. +[1309.46 --> 1310.28] Thanks to the recommendation. +[1310.62 --> 1311.76] And yes, I use the sponsor link. +[1311.90 --> 1312.48] Rob, you're awesome. +[1312.86 --> 1313.16] Yay. +[1313.52 --> 1314.46] Thank you for being awesome. +[1314.58 --> 1315.76] Also, the IE80s are awesome. +[1316.36 --> 1316.66] Yeah. +[1317.24 --> 1318.60] I still use them every day. +[1318.72 --> 1319.28] I love them. +[1319.38 --> 1319.96] They're fantastic. +[1320.82 --> 1321.72] I used iPhone 4. +[1321.80 --> 1322.92] My experience was very disappointing. +[1323.34 --> 1324.44] It was since I switched then. +[1324.88 --> 1326.12] But I may test the iPhone 6. +[1326.18 --> 1328.30] I'm really interested to see what Apple does with iPhone 6. +[1329.20 --> 1330.34] If you don't think five days is enough. +[1330.34 --> 1330.58] You need to call her. +[1330.72 --> 1331.52] Oh, oh. +[1331.62 --> 1340.72] This is a tweet in response to something that I was talking about on Twitter last night where OnePlus offered me a five-day loaner unit of the OnePlus One. +[1340.72 --> 1348.44] And I basically told them, forget it, because what I can do is I'll play around with it for five days and then I can talk about it on WAN Show. +[1348.64 --> 1359.10] But I'm not going to do a review because, quite frankly, our review of the One M8, which I think represents the very best that I can do, at least right now, in terms of a phone review. +[1359.26 --> 1365.12] Our review of the One M8 took me well over a week just to use the phone and make notes on and prepare. +[1365.72 --> 1368.16] And obviously, it wasn't a week dedicated to just that. +[1368.22 --> 1370.02] I was making other videos throughout that week. +[1370.02 --> 1376.08] But everything's kind of like that where I'll spend a week with it part-time and I'll be making notes as I go. +[1376.26 --> 1385.58] Then it took me hours to compile into a full script, hours to shoot, and then it took a full day for one of my editors to edit. +[1386.02 --> 1388.42] So I'm sitting there going, okay, so you're going to give me five days with this? +[1388.48 --> 1394.16] What, I'm going to rush my review all in the name of I can play with a phone for five days? +[1394.52 --> 1395.86] Sorry, what's in this for me? +[1396.04 --> 1397.18] What's in this for my viewers? +[1397.44 --> 1398.32] Why am I doing this? +[1398.32 --> 1402.80] Even, like, our phone reviews actually started off with month-long trials. +[1403.26 --> 1405.46] That was the whole thing with us starting phone reviews. +[1405.70 --> 1413.26] And then even with the Tegrin Note, which I didn't even do a ton on, I had it for slightly over a week. +[1413.60 --> 1419.62] And on the Saturday during that week, I spent literally the entire day doing nothing else except for playing with the tablet. +[1419.62 --> 1421.46] So, yeah. +[1421.46 --> 1422.86] So that's kind of the idea. +[1423.06 --> 1427.72] We don't necessarily do the spec-heavy reviews that other guys do or the benchmarks that they do. +[1427.80 --> 1431.48] We focus on what it's like to actually use the bloody thing. +[1431.56 --> 1433.32] I noticed I never got the Tegrin Note back. +[1434.44 --> 1435.46] It's doing... +[1435.46 --> 1437.64] Ah, that's right. +[1437.72 --> 1439.56] Oh, we have a really cool video coming soon. +[1439.80 --> 1445.62] There's a product that claims to use UV light to clean your phone at night. +[1445.74 --> 1451.18] So we actually, we got, like, real Petri dishes and stuff and, like, did swabs and stuff. +[1451.22 --> 1452.64] So we're going to let you guys know if that works. +[1452.70 --> 1453.50] That's coming really soon. +[1453.50 --> 1455.78] That was, like, immediately after my... +[1455.78 --> 1457.44] I remember that now. +[1457.80 --> 1459.86] I thought you were stealing company property again. +[1460.56 --> 1462.10] Wherever would I get that idea? +[1462.10 --> 1462.28] Unlike you. +[1462.88 --> 1464.44] Wherever would I get that idea? +[1464.46 --> 1465.02] Unlike you. +[1465.28 --> 1465.60] All right. +[1465.68 --> 1468.78] So let's move on to our next topic here. +[1469.12 --> 1474.00] Samsung's head of mobile design resigns after Galaxy S5's poo reception. +[1474.50 --> 1476.28] It's funny where that got cut off on the page. +[1477.46 --> 1478.96] It's because we zoomed in too much. +[1478.98 --> 1479.46] There we go. +[1479.60 --> 1479.80] Poor. +[1482.00 --> 1482.76] I mean... +[1482.76 --> 1483.48] That's pretty accurate. +[1483.50 --> 1485.78] In terms of parties, what would a poo reception be? +[1486.80 --> 1487.16] Ugh. +[1488.62 --> 1489.66] Hopefully not fondue. +[1490.02 --> 1491.20] Hopefully not fondue. +[1493.26 --> 1493.70] Aw. +[1495.14 --> 1495.54] Aw. +[1497.62 --> 1502.68] I was trying to think of some way to spin it well, and then I was like, well, it could be, like, a fondue thing. +[1502.74 --> 1504.16] And I was like, that's actually really disgusting. +[1504.32 --> 1505.82] That's actually a lot worse. +[1507.70 --> 1509.26] Um, so, anyway. +[1511.76 --> 1512.20] So. +[1512.20 --> 1513.20] So, follow-up. +[1513.20 --> 1514.20] So, follow-up. +[1514.66 --> 1516.20] Posted originally on the forum by ETRJ. +[1516.20 --> 1516.86] ETRJ. +[1516.86 --> 1517.20] Um. +[1518.70 --> 1527.80] So, he has resigned following criticism about the Galaxy S5's, uh, lack of, thank you for using a word that I actually don't know how to pronounce. +[1527.92 --> 1529.12] Appreciate that, ETRJ. +[1529.12 --> 1530.12] Okay. +[1530.12 --> 1538.18] So, though the Galaxy S5's design did not actually deviate too far from earlier models, its looks and textured plastic back were round, were roundly? +[1538.18 --> 1539.62] I'm not even reading this anymore. +[1539.62 --> 1541.70] You're from, like, the UK and you're writing it wrong. +[1541.70 --> 1545.56] So, basically, reviewers didn't like the build quality. +[1545.76 --> 1547.28] They didn't like the backing material. +[1547.44 --> 1549.62] I don't know what people didn't like about the backing material. +[1549.74 --> 1550.36] I liked it. +[1550.74 --> 1551.36] It's different. +[1551.50 --> 1552.28] It's easier to grip. +[1552.82 --> 1553.62] I'm not against it. +[1553.62 --> 1553.90] Yeah. +[1554.00 --> 1556.48] Like, I actually quite like the backing of the Galaxy S5. +[1556.56 --> 1559.74] It's one of the things I did like about it, because I don't like TouchWiz, that's for sure. +[1560.26 --> 1569.60] I mean, honestly, I think the criticism of the S5 is less about the S5 not being a solid incremental improvement. +[1569.98 --> 1572.98] Honestly, the build quality feels a lot better than the S4 to me. +[1572.98 --> 1574.60] It has less flex in it by far. +[1574.72 --> 1577.36] It's waterproof, or water-resistant, rather, and all that stuff. +[1577.50 --> 1587.66] But I think it's more to do with the phone community getting bored and not actually recognizing their own boredom for what it is. +[1588.38 --> 1597.94] It's harder for them to find things to get excited about compared to, in the past, when there were so many amazing new innovations coming with every new smartphone. +[1597.94 --> 1599.68] And we've talked about this a fair bit on the show. +[1599.68 --> 1610.00] But it's kind of like PC enthusiasts saying, you know, MSI or ASUSes or whoever's new motherboard isn't exciting, therefore it sucks. +[1610.74 --> 1613.16] Well, really, it's just mature now. +[1613.32 --> 1614.92] And it's not changing much anymore. +[1615.30 --> 1617.86] And you're just not into it that much anymore. +[1618.14 --> 1624.32] And I think people are not recognizing that they're losing the interest, maybe not in the software side. +[1624.40 --> 1627.74] I think there's still a lot of innovation to happen on the software side of things. +[1627.74 --> 1636.86] But in terms of the hardware, we've all basically consolidated down to, you know, an iPhone 1 of various sizes or shapes. +[1637.22 --> 1638.80] Yeah, that's very, very similar. +[1639.50 --> 1644.62] One thing that I like, like, every single time we bring this up, I bring up LG, because they did move the buttons to the back. +[1644.70 --> 1649.96] Like, there is things you can do with layout and stuff that still has been untried yet. +[1649.96 --> 1652.86] And there's going to be things like virtual keyboards and stuff that people are going to be working on. +[1652.92 --> 1658.96] But it's not going to be, like, major, drastic, game-changing things on every single phone release. +[1658.96 --> 1663.64] So that's what I think this is. +[1663.78 --> 1673.12] I mean, you know, despite the perceived lack of beauty, Samsung managed to sell 86 million smartphones in Q4 last year, widening its lead over Apple. +[1673.28 --> 1677.96] But Samsung is apparently struggling to make a profit on its phone, thanks in part to... +[1678.58 --> 1680.32] I hate the way this is written. +[1680.48 --> 1684.16] Anyway, they spend a lot on marketing, so that's costing them a lot. +[1684.16 --> 1692.18] But I guess that's all there is to really say about that, is I think it's just people not being excited about the phones in general. +[1692.52 --> 1694.88] And not that Samsung is particularly doing anything wrong. +[1695.04 --> 1700.32] I mean, they are doing things wrong, but they're not doing anything really new wrong. +[1700.56 --> 1704.02] Like, they're still making touch whiz for old people. +[1704.60 --> 1704.74] Right. +[1704.74 --> 1708.42] Which, like, I don't know how to fix something like that. +[1708.42 --> 1716.24] Because when you've cornered the market on old people who can't see their screens very well, it's not like you want to go ahead and change all your UI elements and make them small. +[1716.64 --> 1718.88] But you could have, like, a scaling option or something. +[1719.08 --> 1720.92] Yeah, you could have scaling that works better, I guess. +[1721.10 --> 1721.84] That's an option. +[1724.04 --> 1726.02] Alright, so... +[1726.02 --> 1728.86] I was looking for a segue here, and I've got nothing. +[1729.04 --> 1729.86] No, I don't think so. +[1729.88 --> 1731.66] But this is absolutely brutal. +[1731.66 --> 1740.12] I mean, when I first heard about this, I was kind of sitting there going, well, geez, I hope this doesn't go anywhere, because we review things. +[1740.60 --> 1742.70] And sometimes we say negative things about them. +[1743.12 --> 1745.84] So you were actually looking into this a fair bit, I thought. +[1745.92 --> 1746.72] Do you want to cover this one? +[1747.10 --> 1748.18] I've done a lot of talking. +[1748.58 --> 1751.34] I was, but I don't know where it's really going to go. +[1751.50 --> 1755.08] Amazon axed them really hardcore, really quickly. +[1755.24 --> 1756.92] Well, you're skipping to the ending. +[1757.04 --> 1758.28] You haven't told them what happened yet. +[1758.28 --> 1765.38] I don't, like, okay, so someone posted a review, and then MediaBridge freaked out. +[1765.92 --> 1769.32] People are saying that MediaBridge has had falsified or faked reviews in the past. +[1769.68 --> 1772.42] And then this one crazy flammatory review was really bad. +[1772.52 --> 1777.64] MediaBridge came back saying that, oh, you cost all these people jobs and all this kind of stuff by posting this review. +[1777.80 --> 1779.86] And it's flammatory, so we're going to go after you. +[1781.80 --> 1784.64] I'm not exactly what sure happened between them at that point. +[1784.64 --> 1786.96] But then Amazon axed them completely. +[1786.96 --> 1789.08] They cannot sell through Amazon anymore. +[1789.48 --> 1795.82] I believe that still does mean that other sellers through Amazon could sell their products. +[1796.12 --> 1796.22] Right. +[1796.38 --> 1800.46] But they can't sell as an Amazon product, which will probably hurt them a lot. +[1800.52 --> 1801.48] Because I know at least me. +[1801.54 --> 1803.00] I know there's people that don't care. +[1803.08 --> 1806.38] But personally, if I'm buying something off Amazon, it has to come from Amazon. +[1806.78 --> 1807.50] Or else. +[1807.56 --> 1807.74] Really? +[1807.78 --> 1808.90] Why am I buying it off Amazon? +[1809.20 --> 1811.76] Oh, I just buy stuff off Amazon Marketplace all the time. +[1811.76 --> 1819.02] And the reason is that Amazon Marketplace means you have Amazon's customer service as a protective backup. +[1819.02 --> 1820.00] I've tried that before. +[1820.84 --> 1821.72] Didn't really work. +[1821.84 --> 1822.06] Really? +[1822.90 --> 1823.16] Oh. +[1823.42 --> 1823.66] I don't know. +[1823.66 --> 1825.18] They were like, yeah, we can't really do much. +[1825.24 --> 1825.76] It's not us. +[1826.30 --> 1827.06] I was like, okay. +[1827.62 --> 1828.14] Oh, wow. +[1828.36 --> 1828.56] Yeah. +[1828.56 --> 1830.72] That's why I personally only do it through Amazon. +[1830.90 --> 1831.58] I have done it. +[1832.42 --> 1832.82] Example. +[1832.98 --> 1833.82] I have done it before. +[1834.26 --> 1834.46] Right. +[1834.48 --> 1835.84] And it totally didn't work out at all. +[1836.02 --> 1837.14] I bought an old school game. +[1837.84 --> 1839.78] And it came in the box and stuff and it was a really good price. +[1839.94 --> 1840.90] And I ordered it online. +[1841.20 --> 1845.00] And I've never really liked ordering old school games online. +[1845.26 --> 1845.38] Right. +[1845.38 --> 1846.26] Because it's very possible. +[1846.32 --> 1850.84] Like, the game store that I buy from locally, they have like a nine day return thing. +[1851.00 --> 1852.86] So you can go home, make sure the game actually works. +[1853.16 --> 1853.26] Right. +[1853.26 --> 1854.20] Because it's probably ancient. +[1854.84 --> 1854.96] Right. +[1854.96 --> 1858.38] And then if it doesn't work, you can get your money back online that can be part of kind +[1858.38 --> 1858.78] of an issue. +[1858.92 --> 1859.00] Right. +[1859.30 --> 1861.46] Sometimes it's not even worth the cost of shipping it back. +[1861.68 --> 1861.92] Yeah. +[1862.08 --> 1862.80] It depends. +[1862.92 --> 1864.64] This time it didn't work. +[1864.90 --> 1868.18] And I was like, okay, well, I want my money back because it was a nice inbox game. +[1868.44 --> 1869.66] And it did cost a little bit of money. +[1870.30 --> 1871.46] And they weren't responding. +[1871.62 --> 1873.70] So I went to Amazon customer service and they were like, well. +[1874.74 --> 1875.02] Huh. +[1875.30 --> 1875.80] I don't know. +[1876.02 --> 1876.60] Well, there you go. +[1876.68 --> 1876.94] Okay. +[1877.28 --> 1878.28] Well, you learn something every day. +[1878.28 --> 1883.92] So basically, so what it looked like was going to happen here at first was that just, you +[1883.92 --> 1890.16] know, a guy posted a negative review where I, okay, the negative review did contain some +[1890.16 --> 1895.20] pretty specific criticisms of MediaBridge slash MediaLink. +[1895.20 --> 1900.64] And that was that it was just a rebadged router, which honestly, a lot of consumers think that +[1900.64 --> 1901.64] that's a really big deal. +[1901.96 --> 1902.54] It's not. +[1902.86 --> 1904.96] Most things that you're going to be buying are actually rebadged. +[1905.06 --> 1909.64] Have you ever bought, you know, like, and it depends on how you even want to define like +[1909.64 --> 1910.42] rebadged. +[1910.54 --> 1912.96] Have you ever bought a D-Link wireless adapter? +[1913.68 --> 1918.80] Because it's just going to have an Atheros or Marvell chipset on a PCB. +[1919.14 --> 1921.14] That's just going to be basically a reference design. +[1921.28 --> 1922.94] With some plastic thing around it. +[1922.94 --> 1923.44] With a plastic thing. +[1923.44 --> 1924.26] Is that a rebadge? +[1924.26 --> 1924.74] I don't know. +[1924.98 --> 1928.68] Is that an integrated product from a supplier and that they sell to the consumer? +[1928.84 --> 1929.26] Probably. +[1929.54 --> 1930.10] I don't know. +[1930.52 --> 1932.56] So, I mean, maybe it was a rebadge. +[1932.60 --> 1933.26] Maybe it wasn't. +[1933.58 --> 1939.74] What the reviewer also said was that, okay, so said it was blah, blah, blah, said that they +[1939.74 --> 1945.86] had falsified other reviews on Amazon in order to make their products seem better than they +[1945.86 --> 1948.62] are, which is a pretty serious accusation. +[1948.62 --> 1954.00] And so if they were going to go after him for libel, then that would be potentially, +[1954.00 --> 1956.08] there would potentially be a case there. +[1956.66 --> 1962.92] And then the problem, though, is that what MediaBridge did is they came back saying, you +[1962.92 --> 1964.00] have harmed MediaBridge. +[1964.08 --> 1966.78] We intend to hold you liable for all damages sustained. +[1967.22 --> 1971.18] They said he must delete his negative product review on Amazon within three days of receiving +[1971.18 --> 1971.54] the letter. +[1971.54 --> 1975.96] Stop all defamatory and injurious conduct toward the company and agree never to purchase or +[1975.96 --> 1978.64] comment on a MediaBridge product again. +[1978.64 --> 1985.96] So, the reviewer has actually since changed the review to remove the statements, but, you +[1985.96 --> 1990.84] know, I think that that's not, yeah. +[1991.84 --> 1992.86] This quote, too. +[1992.90 --> 1994.36] The damage is just kind of done at this point. +[1994.44 --> 1997.94] The quote about the reviewer removing the statement is kind of interesting because it +[1997.94 --> 1998.96] goes exactly like this. +[1999.24 --> 2004.58] The reviewer has since changed his review completely to remove the libelist statements, but unfortunately +[2004.58 --> 2007.48] not before having an army attack us on the internet. +[2007.50 --> 2008.76] Yeah, this is from MediaBridge. +[2009.16 --> 2015.54] So, they're basically accusing the reviewer of, you know, colluding with other internet +[2015.54 --> 2018.66] denizens to go and, like, thumbs up the review. +[2018.66 --> 2023.34] Because it was a big part of the problem for MediaLink, I guess, is that it was the most +[2023.34 --> 2024.76] helpful negative review. +[2025.34 --> 2027.94] And honestly, those are the ones that people see. +[2028.08 --> 2030.70] The most helpful positive one, the most helpful negative one. +[2030.70 --> 2034.38] And it had a bunch of people thumbsing it up saying it was helpful, so. +[2035.32 --> 2042.00] And, like, sometimes I see Reddit as just a pack of dogs that needs something to go after +[2042.00 --> 2042.56] all the time. +[2042.84 --> 2043.58] It could be positive. +[2043.78 --> 2044.46] It could be negative. +[2044.58 --> 2045.22] It could be whatever. +[2045.56 --> 2049.36] And, like, maybe it just happened that there was no other really super important, super +[2049.36 --> 2051.60] positive or super negative news at that point in time. +[2051.86 --> 2053.58] And it hit Reddit at the right point in time. +[2053.66 --> 2054.40] They're just like, rah! +[2054.74 --> 2055.76] Because that happens. +[2056.24 --> 2056.84] Yeah, I mean. +[2056.96 --> 2057.64] That's definitely a thing. +[2057.64 --> 2061.50] It's funny they use the word army because you could probably describe the Reddit community +[2061.50 --> 2062.62] as an army sometimes. +[2063.16 --> 2067.56] You know, who that army works for exactly, we're not sure. +[2067.80 --> 2068.54] Not entirely, yeah. +[2068.54 --> 2070.08] For the people in theory, I guess. +[2070.16 --> 2074.62] But sometimes, you know, an army of the people without, you know, clear leadership and a clear +[2074.62 --> 2077.50] sort of direction can just kind of do things. +[2078.00 --> 2081.10] And whether they were wrong here or not, actually hard to say. +[2081.10 --> 2085.40] I mean, it's possible that MediaBridge was totally off base. +[2085.68 --> 2091.58] It's possible that the reviewer was totally off base and saying things that just blatantly +[2091.58 --> 2092.36] weren't true. +[2092.54 --> 2097.12] But then it's always better to communicate with that person rather than having a lawyer +[2097.12 --> 2097.86] do the communication. +[2098.14 --> 2099.14] Yeah, or just prove them wrong. +[2099.28 --> 2099.42] Yeah. +[2099.50 --> 2106.02] I mean, that's the issue to me is when you, when the opening salvo is do this or else, +[2106.26 --> 2107.96] cease and desist or else. +[2107.96 --> 2112.98] The opening salvo should be, hey, um, yo, do you mind? +[2113.26 --> 2113.98] Yeah, yeah. +[2114.12 --> 2117.60] And then if that's a problem, well, then you get the lawyers involved. +[2117.70 --> 2122.30] Or like talk to Amazon about their review service and try to bring up the whole like, +[2122.40 --> 2126.96] oh, well, he posted like surprisingly positive reviews on other people's things just to make +[2126.96 --> 2128.76] ours look really bad and theirs look good and all that kind of stuff. +[2128.84 --> 2130.04] Talk to Amazon about that. +[2130.54 --> 2131.26] Talk to him. +[2131.36 --> 2134.34] Try and prove that you're not rebadging, even though that probably doesn't matter. +[2134.46 --> 2135.94] Try and prove all these other different things. +[2135.94 --> 2140.88] Then you get posed as the good person and then the Reddit army gets behind you instead of +[2140.88 --> 2141.46] in front of you. +[2141.68 --> 2142.50] Good old Reddit army. +[2143.70 --> 2144.50] All right. +[2144.64 --> 2150.84] So we've got our next topic here and that is that the developers, this is just, oh, this +[2150.84 --> 2151.40] is interesting. +[2151.76 --> 2152.86] This is terrible. +[2152.86 --> 2158.92] So the, I think the official post saying that he was actually taking it down wasn't even +[2158.92 --> 2160.56] done by the original developer. +[2160.98 --> 2162.02] Let's see here. +[2165.52 --> 2166.48] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2166.50 --> 2168.24] It wasn't even done by the original developer. +[2168.34 --> 2173.68] It was done by a guy that joined on and his agreement that was that he would make 15% of +[2173.68 --> 2174.96] the sales of towns. +[2174.96 --> 2181.26] So it became not worth it for him personally because town sales were going down. +[2181.40 --> 2184.74] This isn't, the game isn't even released yet, but town sales were going down. +[2184.86 --> 2186.34] So he wasn't making enough money. +[2186.48 --> 2189.22] The original creator also felt like he wasn't making enough money. +[2189.22 --> 2191.46] Although the game is worth how much? +[2191.74 --> 2194.80] And then it's selling 200,000 times. +[2194.92 --> 2197.48] So that dude probably did actually make quite a bit of money. +[2198.20 --> 2201.60] And in this post, they talk about how they're interested in making a sequel. +[2202.98 --> 2203.76] Did you know that part? +[2203.96 --> 2206.40] Okay, we haven't really given the audience any context. +[2206.80 --> 2208.18] Did you sleep much last night? +[2208.28 --> 2208.76] Are you tired? +[2209.22 --> 2210.86] No, but it's pretty straightforward. +[2211.10 --> 2211.96] Okay, but we haven't told her. +[2211.96 --> 2213.92] It's an early access game that hasn't been released yet. +[2213.98 --> 2214.36] I said that. +[2214.50 --> 2215.22] Oh, did you? +[2215.34 --> 2215.52] Yeah. +[2215.64 --> 2217.18] And I haven't been sleeping much. +[2217.18 --> 2217.66] Did you sleep much last night? +[2218.52 --> 2221.04] It's like the second thing that you just straight up didn't hear. +[2223.08 --> 2226.36] Anyways, it first launched on Steam at the end of 2012. +[2226.36 --> 2227.98] It's an in-development game. +[2228.28 --> 2230.56] I think it's through the Greenlight system that it was... +[2230.56 --> 2232.26] Yeah, it was one of the Greenlight games. +[2233.78 --> 2235.10] It's not out yet. +[2235.22 --> 2236.36] Sold 200,000 copies. +[2236.46 --> 2237.20] Has been abandoned. +[2237.50 --> 2238.68] And they're planning on releasing a sequel. +[2238.68 --> 2243.44] So, I mean, the original dev abandoned it in February saying, you know, we're burned out. +[2243.56 --> 2246.78] Handed it over to Florian Frankenberger. +[2247.08 --> 2250.44] And then within a couple of months, now it's not going well. +[2250.58 --> 2252.16] And development has been completely abandoned. +[2252.16 --> 2254.16] And I mean, um... +[2255.28 --> 2257.88] How do you fix this? +[2257.90 --> 2258.32] I don't know. +[2258.40 --> 2262.30] People have been talking about contractual obligation to complete a game if it gets greenlit. +[2264.06 --> 2265.36] So, if you put your game... +[2265.36 --> 2265.80] But what does complete mean? +[2266.42 --> 2267.06] Yeah, exactly. +[2267.08 --> 2267.66] I mean, ask EA. +[2269.46 --> 2270.68] Yeah, that's a good point. +[2271.68 --> 2272.50] It's hard. +[2272.64 --> 2274.36] This is a problem with early access. +[2274.36 --> 2281.14] And then we got that guy posting on our forums where taking this away is going to hurt a massive amount of developers. +[2281.52 --> 2281.58] Yeah. +[2281.64 --> 2284.90] But then leaving this here is going to hurt a massive amount of people. +[2285.00 --> 2288.12] Well, because there are the success stories with early access, like Minecraft. +[2288.66 --> 2289.48] Minecraft, yeah. +[2289.48 --> 2291.16] What an enormous success story. +[2291.50 --> 2297.12] And there's a lot of games that, honestly, people are enjoying playing right now because they're honestly not that broken. +[2297.12 --> 2302.26] And probably shouldn't be in beta or early access that are currently in early access. +[2302.44 --> 2303.56] Like, I know Rust. +[2303.74 --> 2306.30] A lot of people were playing Rust and having no real problems with it. +[2306.94 --> 2309.46] Now, I know there's a ton of bugs, but don't worry about it. +[2309.54 --> 2310.70] For a long time. +[2310.80 --> 2312.68] And I don't know if it's released now or not. +[2312.76 --> 2314.72] But, like, a lot of people were playing it very actively. +[2314.86 --> 2316.26] There's a huge community behind it. +[2316.58 --> 2317.60] And it was fine. +[2317.78 --> 2318.80] It's going okay. +[2318.92 --> 2320.30] And there's a lot of games that are like that. +[2320.30 --> 2325.00] The guy that posted in our forum, I believe, was for, like, Robot Dodgeball or something. +[2325.48 --> 2326.60] Robot Disco Dodgeball. +[2326.66 --> 2328.04] I saw them at PAX East, actually. +[2330.72 --> 2331.66] So, yeah. +[2331.82 --> 2333.96] I don't know how you exactly fix this. +[2334.06 --> 2335.62] A big problem is what you just brought up. +[2335.66 --> 2340.30] Whereas if you put, like, a contractual obligation where you have to release the game or have to complete the game, +[2340.92 --> 2342.88] if you decide to abandon it, you can just be like, +[2343.00 --> 2344.18] Not early access anymore. +[2344.76 --> 2345.64] Now it's done. +[2348.14 --> 2348.54] Yeah. +[2348.54 --> 2351.86] Maybe they can have something where there's, like, a minimum goal. +[2352.04 --> 2353.88] Like, you have to have these amount of things in the game. +[2354.60 --> 2356.98] Yeah, but, like, how do you define that? +[2357.04 --> 2357.94] I mean, the con... +[2357.94 --> 2358.34] Okay. +[2358.72 --> 2362.92] The lawyers involved in writing the contract... +[2362.92 --> 2365.26] I mean, think about the development process of anything. +[2365.68 --> 2366.74] Like, what if... +[2366.74 --> 2368.14] What if Linus Media Group... +[2368.14 --> 2368.84] What if something changes? +[2368.84 --> 2378.28] A year and four and a half months ago had been told to contractually commit to what kind of videos we were going to do. +[2378.54 --> 2379.94] Two years from now. +[2380.50 --> 2384.10] I mean, the amount that what we do has changed in that time. +[2384.46 --> 2386.94] And, I mean, any creative processes like that. +[2387.04 --> 2387.94] You know, like a game. +[2388.88 --> 2392.38] You might go, okay, we're going to have three campaigns and three races. +[2392.50 --> 2394.52] And you might kind of go, oh, this is stupid. +[2394.72 --> 2395.80] Starcraft's been made already. +[2395.80 --> 2397.88] We're going to have six races. +[2398.08 --> 2399.34] Or we're going to have two races. +[2399.62 --> 2402.30] Or, you know, whatever else happens to be. +[2402.36 --> 2408.46] As long as you don't just have one race, Donald, then, you know, you're being very 21st century about it. +[2408.48 --> 2409.22] That's all I'm trying to say. +[2409.22 --> 2411.96] And the point is that it can change. +[2412.08 --> 2419.42] So the kind of contract that you would have to write to, like, spell it out in detail enough that they would actually have to deliver something. +[2419.42 --> 2420.40] I don't know how to fix it. +[2420.48 --> 2421.02] It's impossible. +[2421.12 --> 2423.84] I mean, the lawyers would be happy with that arrangement, I'm sure. +[2424.08 --> 2424.64] Yeah, yeah. +[2424.88 --> 2428.80] One thing is, like, this comes back to the Kickstarter talk we were talking about a long time ago. +[2428.80 --> 2433.96] And something that you guys should probably take a look at if you're really interested in this is Total Biscuit's video on early access. +[2434.68 --> 2436.86] But it's where, like, do your research. +[2437.40 --> 2440.38] Make sure the guy that you're supporting has, like, made a bunch of stuff. +[2440.44 --> 2440.84] Chris Roberts! +[2441.82 --> 2443.24] Hopefully it's a game studio. +[2443.50 --> 2449.66] There are entire game studios putting stuff up on Greenlight and on Kickstarter. +[2449.90 --> 2451.60] Make sure that there's some sort of a background. +[2453.30 --> 2458.12] I haven't read enough into it, but I've heard some people saying that the guy that made Towns has a few failed projects in the past. +[2458.12 --> 2459.28] I don't know if that's true. +[2459.38 --> 2460.82] I've just seen that in a few different places. +[2461.18 --> 2462.68] It's like, that's the kind of stuff you want to look into. +[2462.80 --> 2463.90] It's an early access game. +[2464.32 --> 2466.14] You are gambling, to a certain point. +[2466.22 --> 2468.46] You're not buying the game as is right now. +[2468.66 --> 2471.98] Or if you are, then you're happy with it already and it doesn't matter. +[2472.34 --> 2478.70] But that's the problem, is that people feel like when they pay for something, they should get something. +[2479.66 --> 2480.88] Well, they should. +[2481.04 --> 2481.44] They should. +[2481.52 --> 2484.02] That's the whole Kickstarter problem. +[2484.02 --> 2489.50] People perceive Kickstarter as like buying something. +[2489.94 --> 2493.70] But the problem is that Kickstarter is more like a donation. +[2494.14 --> 2494.24] Yeah. +[2494.36 --> 2500.18] Because you're not buying something because oftentimes they don't actually have to deliver it or it doesn't have to be very functional. +[2500.94 --> 2502.02] And then the other times... +[2503.02 --> 2504.02] Wait, so... +[2504.66 --> 2505.50] Oh, right, right, right. +[2505.50 --> 2511.28] So, so, and the other problem is that if it is really successful, you don't actually get a cut of it. +[2511.52 --> 2514.28] So it's not an investment and it's not a purchase. +[2514.82 --> 2519.92] It's a donation to support someone who you think should make the thing that you like. +[2519.98 --> 2526.38] Like, honestly, guys, I've got what I think is a fantastic idea for a movie trailer that I want to make. +[2526.38 --> 2533.32] I think that Linus Media Group has gotten to the point where we are capable of creating an awesome movie trailer. +[2533.54 --> 2537.80] We are nowhere near capable of creating an awesome movie. +[2538.30 --> 2539.62] They're really different. +[2539.84 --> 2541.04] Very different things. +[2541.16 --> 2543.40] Completely different skill sets in a lot of ways. +[2543.86 --> 2546.96] But what we could easily do is we could kickstart. +[2547.32 --> 2549.62] And that's the thing is a well-merchandized Kickstarter. +[2549.80 --> 2555.02] So we could kickstart, support us to make this movie, give us, you know, $100,000 or whatever the case may be. +[2555.02 --> 2564.10] We could make a fantastic trailer, spend $15,000, $20,000 on that, and then just, you know, buy ice cream with the other $80,000. +[2564.68 --> 2569.58] Release a movie that's, like, starring me and Luke and shot with, like, a phone camera. +[2570.52 --> 2574.84] And we haven't actually done anything illegal. +[2576.14 --> 2577.16] And, like, this ties in. +[2577.20 --> 2581.20] I think I've told this story on the show before where I've backed a lot of Kickstarter projects. +[2581.54 --> 2583.02] Most of them have been successful. +[2583.02 --> 2589.46] Some of them have been glowingly successful to the point where the guy that's made it, yeah, Pebble. +[2589.68 --> 2591.20] Real companies are formed. +[2591.50 --> 2595.70] But, like, some of the smaller ones that I've done where it is a company but now it's, like, two or three people. +[2596.24 --> 2600.82] And it's been a year and a half since I got my product in my hands for them. +[2600.92 --> 2601.80] Like, it's been a long time. +[2602.04 --> 2603.48] They're still in contact with all of us. +[2603.84 --> 2607.46] All the Kickstarter backers are getting huge discounts all the time just because they're like, +[2607.46 --> 2607.90] Thank you. +[2608.00 --> 2609.18] You allowed us to become a thing. +[2609.40 --> 2610.16] That's awesome. +[2610.36 --> 2612.22] And that's what you kind of hope happens from Kickstarter. +[2613.18 --> 2618.54] And they still allow us to put input in towards projects that they're doing in the future and stuff like that, which is really cool. +[2618.72 --> 2620.14] But that doesn't happen all the time. +[2620.26 --> 2622.08] I have been completely screwed over. +[2622.64 --> 2623.92] I bought into a Kickstarter. +[2624.22 --> 2629.12] The guy didn't post updates forever and then was randomly like, yeah, no, I didn't do anything. +[2629.12 --> 2630.36] And I'm not going to do anything. +[2630.54 --> 2631.16] So, nope. +[2632.32 --> 2633.54] Like, 100%. +[2633.54 --> 2636.08] And then he's like, oh, apparently I have to give refunds. +[2636.08 --> 2636.94] So, give me your information. +[2637.28 --> 2638.50] And then no update. +[2638.64 --> 2640.84] And then months later he's like, well, I'm doing the refunds today. +[2641.34 --> 2642.34] No one got them. +[2642.98 --> 2644.64] And then radio silence since then. +[2644.88 --> 2646.70] I don't ever expect to get that money back. +[2647.58 --> 2654.16] And you know what's really stupid is some of the Kickstarters I've seen fail are even things as stupid as, like, playing cards. +[2654.90 --> 2655.14] Yeah. +[2655.44 --> 2657.88] They just flat out didn't make. +[2657.88 --> 2660.36] It's like, really, what did you spend the money on? +[2660.42 --> 2667.58] And, you know, a lot of the time I think it's on, like, a posh office and, like, a nice new computer to put on their fancy desk. +[2667.98 --> 2673.32] When really, and it frustrates me, the way a lot of startups behave, like, they already are making the money. +[2673.82 --> 2683.40] As opposed to figuring out how to deliver the product the best that they possibly can to their customers the best way they possibly can without spending that money. +[2683.40 --> 2686.34] So that they can keep that money to reinvest in themselves for the future. +[2686.34 --> 2688.18] I mean, that's how I think businesses should be run. +[2688.44 --> 2690.90] But a lot of the time, that's not really how it goes. +[2691.10 --> 2692.26] There was recently a Kickstarter. +[2692.36 --> 2693.58] I don't remember what this was for. +[2693.64 --> 2694.80] I wish I had research on this. +[2694.96 --> 2698.20] But they were complaining that they had ran out of money. +[2698.44 --> 2703.76] Because one of the employees in the company, when they're running their Kickstarter, was in, like, serious money troubles. +[2703.94 --> 2706.66] So when the Kickstarter ended and they got all the money, he took, like, a third of it. +[2706.66 --> 2710.56] And they were just like, yeah, it's a cash advance for, like, six months' salary. +[2712.40 --> 2715.88] And then they're like, oh, wait, we don't have any money left because we gave it all to him. +[2716.44 --> 2718.08] And it's like, what? +[2719.40 --> 2720.72] Are you kidding me? +[2720.76 --> 2722.38] Was that somewhere on the Kickstarter page? +[2722.44 --> 2726.06] We were funding this guy's, like, probably, I'm going to assume, gambling troubles? +[2726.34 --> 2726.56] Like, no. +[2726.96 --> 2727.60] Could be drugs. +[2727.80 --> 2728.52] Could be drugs. +[2728.64 --> 2729.40] Could be anything. +[2729.58 --> 2731.30] Like, no, that wasn't a part of the Kickstarter. +[2731.62 --> 2732.46] Could be just anything. +[2732.94 --> 2738.88] I used to work with, I used to have a co-worker who, we were in sort of a similar, without giving too much detail, +[2739.08 --> 2742.22] I have some idea of what kind of money she made. +[2742.76 --> 2748.78] And, like, the amount of money that I saw getting, like, I knew the pay grade. +[2749.20 --> 2751.02] I knew approximately the expenses. +[2751.32 --> 2752.26] I knew her pretty well. +[2752.26 --> 2759.04] And the amount of money that I saw her blowing on hobby stuff, I was sitting there going, +[2759.40 --> 2760.04] Okay. +[2760.36 --> 2768.46] So you're constantly, like, asking for more money, but I know that you waste it all on stupid crap. +[2768.92 --> 2774.12] So maybe if you stopped wasting it on stupid crap, we wouldn't have this problem. +[2774.38 --> 2776.88] Because you make a very fair living wage. +[2778.02 --> 2778.62] Yeah. +[2780.22 --> 2783.68] Speaking of a fair living wage, 3.2 billion. +[2783.92 --> 2787.68] Apple's reportedly considering buying beets for 3.2 billion. +[2787.68 --> 2791.36] Oh, this has been updated since the last time I looked at it by Alex Goes High. +[2791.56 --> 2791.72] Yeah. +[2791.80 --> 2794.88] It's apparently kinda confirmed. +[2795.84 --> 2798.38] So, I, right, yes, I did hear about this. +[2798.44 --> 2806.10] So Dr. Dre was caught up celebrating the deal in his studio because he posted a video about said celebration on Facebook that has been deleted. +[2806.32 --> 2809.36] The Verge evidently saved it to their servers prior to the takedown. +[2809.36 --> 2814.86] So, basically, in the video, Dr. Dre describes himself as the first billionaire in hip-hop. +[2815.48 --> 2820.26] And, uh, doesn't explicitly confirm the Apple acquisition. +[2820.58 --> 2824.62] But the, the implication there is that the deal is basically already done. +[2824.62 --> 2828.98] So, Apple would be acquiring not just, like, headphones. +[2829.60 --> 2833.20] Which, to me, is less, I mean, yeah, it's a huge business and all that. +[2833.28 --> 2835.02] But that's less of a big deal. +[2835.12 --> 2841.88] And probably if Apple decided to release their own Apple-branded headphones, they could crush Beets headphones if they really felt like it. +[2841.90 --> 2845.94] I mean, the kinds of people who buy Beets headphones are probably gonna also be interested in Apple headphones. +[2845.94 --> 2851.20] And, quite frankly, I have a lot more faith in Apple than I do in Beets when it comes to making a decent pair of headphones. +[2851.26 --> 2854.16] I'd assume it had really good build quality, which I don't assume of Beets. +[2854.38 --> 2854.86] I, I also do not. +[2854.86 --> 2856.72] I don't even know, but I just, I don't assume. +[2857.08 --> 2858.04] They're, they're nothing special. +[2858.04 --> 2860.04] I've never bought a pair of Beets. +[2860.20 --> 2862.52] Um, so, I forget where I was going with that. +[2862.54 --> 2863.36] What is your thing? +[2863.36 --> 2865.42] You said you have a very unpopular opinion about that. +[2865.42 --> 2866.04] I'll get to that. +[2866.16 --> 2870.46] Um, so, Apple will also be buying Beets' streaming service. +[2870.46 --> 2876.98] So, that is, is a music streaming service that's actually, um, similar to something that Apple's been rumored to be developing. +[2877.22 --> 2880.42] So, it would potentially work on Android devices. +[2880.42 --> 2884.06] So, this could be a great way for Apple to get into the music streaming service. +[2884.06 --> 2887.92] I mean, music is something that Apple's been very heavily into since the jobs days. +[2887.92 --> 2899.88] And it could allow them to get a chunk of that pie on the Android side without, like, creating branding weirdness around, you know, iTunes for Android. +[2900.60 --> 2902.74] You know, whatever they want to call it. +[2902.92 --> 2905.22] Or, or, or whatever that ends up turning into. +[2905.40 --> 2907.52] So, I think that's actually more interesting. +[2907.66 --> 2912.68] It's funny to me that this is actually by far Apple's biggest acquisition. +[2912.68 --> 2923.58] Um, so, it's, the second biggest was actually Next, back in 1997, when they brought Steve Jobs' Next computer company, or computing Next, I forget what it's called. +[2923.66 --> 2927.44] Anyway, when they brought Next back into the fold and reacquired Steve Jobs. +[2927.60 --> 2929.58] So, this is far bigger than that. +[2930.08 --> 2940.58] Um, Apple's more about the little strategic micro acquisitions, where they see, like, a really smart technology and, and, and buy them up before they get big. +[2940.58 --> 2940.86] Yeah. +[2940.96 --> 2944.86] So, this is very uncharacteristic for them, making, uh, like, a power move like this. +[2945.28 --> 2945.92] It's interesting. +[2946.06 --> 2949.60] I, I, I see, it kind of makes sense, though, because of how much they're already entwined. +[2950.98 --> 2951.78] Yeah, sort of. +[2951.80 --> 2958.70] I mean, they sell Beats in the Apple store, but, I mean, they also sell Cooler Master, like, aluminum phone stands in the store. +[2958.80 --> 2963.04] Yeah, but I bet you, in terms of revenue, Beats brings in a lot more than the Cooler Master aluminum stand. +[2963.28 --> 2964.76] You know what's baffling to me? +[2965.54 --> 2969.64] Is how I manage to live in the kind of bubble that I live in. +[2969.64 --> 2973.20] Like, when we were trying to do the Hackintosh, um, build. +[2974.10 --> 2978.52] I, the, the, the guy we were working with, Rampage Dev, who's a Hackintosh developer. +[2978.64 --> 2979.20] Really nice guy. +[2979.32 --> 2980.28] Super nice guy. +[2980.34 --> 2981.08] We really like him. +[2981.18 --> 2981.56] Cool guy. +[2981.70 --> 2987.28] Um, he was like, oh yeah, to create the, the bootable USB drive, just plug it into a Mac and do this. +[2987.32 --> 2988.70] I'm like, I, I don't have a Mac. +[2988.78 --> 2989.78] He's like, then borrow one. +[2989.86 --> 2994.12] I'm like, I don't know a single person who owns a Mac. +[2994.44 --> 2995.28] He's like, what? +[2995.36 --> 2996.84] I'm like, look, don't worry, man. +[2996.84 --> 3002.08] I'll figure it out, but I don't know a single person who owns a Mac. +[3002.16 --> 3004.50] I don't know a single person who owns Beat headphones. +[3005.06 --> 3005.84] Did I say Beat? +[3005.90 --> 3006.20] Beats. +[3006.42 --> 3007.26] Beats headphones. +[3009.42 --> 3009.78] Who? +[3011.34 --> 3012.18] A while ago. +[3012.18 --> 3013.12] Someone who works here? +[3013.28 --> 3014.02] A while ago. +[3014.30 --> 3014.58] Who? +[3014.70 --> 3015.80] I don't think he still has them. +[3015.86 --> 3016.68] Do I have to hit him? +[3016.84 --> 3017.54] I don't think he still has them. +[3017.54 --> 3019.00] I know he has monster turbines. +[3019.10 --> 3019.76] Is it Brandon? +[3020.18 --> 3020.48] No. +[3020.48 --> 3022.96] It's not Ed, is it? +[3023.00 --> 3023.28] No. +[3024.92 --> 3025.36] No. +[3027.78 --> 3029.68] He had them, he had them a while ago. +[3029.78 --> 3030.76] I don't know if he still has them. +[3030.86 --> 3033.20] No, we were making fun of people who own Beats headphones. +[3033.44 --> 3033.66] Oh. +[3034.70 --> 3035.06] Yeah. +[3035.24 --> 3039.84] And I was saying that you have monster earbuds, but those are actually fairly well, well reputed. +[3039.98 --> 3040.82] So you're okay. +[3042.10 --> 3043.18] You're off the hook, Brandon. +[3043.42 --> 3043.66] Yeah. +[3043.72 --> 3046.00] He had the, the like small ones that go on your ear. +[3046.44 --> 3047.20] Oh, really? +[3047.56 --> 3047.84] Yeah. +[3048.12 --> 3048.98] Oh, headache. +[3048.98 --> 3051.60] It was a while ago though when he got like an employee discount on them. +[3051.78 --> 3052.82] It's our new guy. +[3053.12 --> 3054.52] We are all ashamed of him. +[3054.56 --> 3056.08] I wouldn't have hired him if I'd known that. +[3056.18 --> 3059.96] That is, that is a very sad, very sad state of affairs right now. +[3060.00 --> 3062.04] I imagine he posted that on the audio forum. +[3062.18 --> 3063.34] So here's. +[3063.36 --> 3064.76] Just get slaughtered. +[3065.44 --> 3068.98] Here's what I will say about an Apple Beats acquisition. +[3070.14 --> 3075.22] I would actually be pretty excited to see a product that came out of this union. +[3077.16 --> 3077.96] That's what I'll say. +[3077.96 --> 3078.96] Okay. +[3078.96 --> 3079.56] That's all I have to say about it. +[3079.56 --> 3081.38] Guys, I'm going to create a straw poll. +[3081.62 --> 3082.76] Because Apple owns that. +[3082.82 --> 3083.72] Would you be as excited? +[3083.72 --> 3084.64] I know that would never happen. +[3084.76 --> 3086.12] I'm not even going to put that up. +[3086.28 --> 3088.20] I was going to say if it was the other way around and I was like, no. +[3089.04 --> 3089.78] There's no way. +[3089.78 --> 3096.86] I could have made that so you could have kept talking. +[3097.00 --> 3098.90] Oh, I don't really have anything else to say. +[3099.08 --> 3099.32] Okay. +[3099.46 --> 3100.64] Are we done with this topic then? +[3101.28 --> 3101.64] Yeah. +[3101.78 --> 3105.66] I'm just going to, like basically, okay, I guess I do have more to say. +[3105.66 --> 3111.54] So the reason that I would be excited about that is because Beats, I appreciate their style +[3111.54 --> 3113.12] and I appreciate their marketing. +[3113.46 --> 3120.36] But what has always been lacking for me is the actual build quality and the actual exceptionalness +[3120.36 --> 3120.94] of the product. +[3120.94 --> 3122.50] So anything good. +[3123.30 --> 3123.50] Yeah. +[3124.52 --> 3132.78] But what they've been good at, what they have been good at, is increasing the demand for +[3132.78 --> 3134.22] quality audio solutions. +[3134.80 --> 3136.38] Because people are like, wow, this is bad. +[3136.42 --> 3137.24] I want to buy something better. +[3137.40 --> 3137.68] No. +[3137.82 --> 3138.68] No, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[3138.68 --> 3145.16] No, no, like commercials like the HP Envy commercial where they have Dr. Dre with his stupid headphones +[3145.16 --> 3151.56] on on an HP notebook and like talking about how better audio enriches the experience because +[3151.56 --> 3152.48] it does. +[3152.94 --> 3158.46] The problem is that Beats never actually delivered the enriched audio experience. +[3158.66 --> 3158.70] Right. +[3158.74 --> 3164.02] But the good thing they did was they made people aware of crappy audio and how much it sucks. +[3164.62 --> 3168.40] So what I would like to see Apple do, so here's my straw poll, you guys. +[3168.40 --> 3174.14] what I would like to see Apple do is actually build something with Beats +[3174.14 --> 3179.36] branding that is good because hate on Apple all you want the iPhone 5s is an +[3179.36 --> 3185.02] exceptional piece of hardware and even all even the Android fanboys have to +[3185.02 --> 3191.02] agree that what's great about the HTC One series the one M7 and the one M8 is +[3191.02 --> 3195.92] that someone on the Android side finally rivaled Apple for build quality which +[3195.92 --> 3200.12] would imply that we never had anything equivalent before they are quality +[3200.12 --> 3204.02] built products they're fast Apple actually engineer solutions that are +[3204.02 --> 3207.68] good their processors that they actually build themselves unlike pretty much +[3207.68 --> 3211.04] everyone else with the exception of Samsung where they're just using an +[3211.04 --> 3215.24] off-the-shelf processor Apple actually engineers the crap out of things so if +[3215.24 --> 3219.92] they engineered the crap out of a $300 pair of headphones I would expect to +[3219.92 --> 3224.88] actually get $300 level build quality and $300 level sound quality out of it +[3224.88 --> 3230.34] that's what I would like to see there's you you can't possibly say that they +[3230.34 --> 3235.50] don't make things well you can but it's just stupid that's all I have to say about +[3235.50 --> 3240.18] that okay so yeah you could technically say yeah you could say it but you're just +[3240.18 --> 3245.08] completely wrong yeah so there you go do you want to do a topic sure +[3245.08 --> 3251.22] there's a few left actually there's a lot left here I'm gonna throw those straw +[3251.22 --> 3256.02] pool results up there boom okay so one that I find really interesting because +[3256.02 --> 3259.20] we've been talking about VR a lot lately and yep I'm gonna talk about another +[3259.20 --> 3264.24] Oculus Rift thing is that the biggest thing that we've both said is that it's +[3264.24 --> 3268.92] not necessarily immersive in us yeah because not all your senses are engaged +[3268.92 --> 3273.72] and that's what's really interesting about this I could engage your senses that +[3273.72 --> 3279.22] wouldn't have to be VR oh god really is this the thing that you're gonna do on the show +[3279.22 --> 3282.48] no okay you're talking about all right um so +[3282.48 --> 3288.00] wow anyways +[3288.00 --> 3298.78] so a company called something birdly I think I'm a little bit distracted right now um has +[3298.78 --> 3304.28] created this giant machine thing that they're quoting saying uh you do not control a machine +[3304.28 --> 3310.76] you embody a bird the red kite which is a bird by the way um but honestly you're you're controlling +[3310.76 --> 3317.10] machine um but what's really interesting about it is that it engages your physical sense so you're +[3317.10 --> 3322.02] literally you're laying flat up on this machine and then you have to flap as if you're a bird like +[3322.02 --> 3327.52] he's doing right there um and then it is putting smell into the environment so what you see +[3327.52 --> 3333.68] on the Oculus Rift is pushed through towards you so if you're flying over a forest you'll smell a forest if you're flying over +[3333.68 --> 3340.18] mud flats you'll smell mud whatever um and you can see that giant fan right in front of him that fan +[3340.18 --> 3345.14] will change how fast it's spinning depending on how fast he's going in the game so if he starts going +[3345.14 --> 3350.42] really quickly the fan will start spinning really quickly so you're getting um not necessarily accurate +[3350.42 --> 3356.32] but you're getting representative wind speed towards your head and you're getting smell and you're getting +[3356.32 --> 3360.52] vision from the Oculus Rift this is kind of the stuff that I'm talking about it's still not going to feel +[3360.52 --> 3364.98] like you're actually a bird because you're laying on something kind of flapping around but it should +[3364.98 --> 3372.12] be really interesting to be able to try they're saying that it has um olfactoric what is it called +[3372.12 --> 3377.96] sorry what now olfactoric smell no I know but is that how you pronounce it I'm actually not sure +[3377.96 --> 3385.78] olfactoric olfactoric olfaction either way that's factory perception yeah so olfactory perception is +[3385.78 --> 3391.04] how you smell things they have feedback on that they also have feedback based on uh which which is based +[3391.04 --> 3394.68] on the location of the bird while you're flying I said if you fly over four I saw that kind of stuff +[3394.68 --> 3405.34] um and then it has wind speed and actually physically flapping oh you can have that banana on your shirt +[3405.34 --> 3411.34] I don't want that in my hand um cool though because this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to +[3412.04 --> 3417.22] exciting things that we're going to be able to do with VR yeah and like this maybe isn't the most +[3417.22 --> 3421.66] realistic thing for something that everyone's going to have in their house yeah it's like it's like if +[3421.66 --> 3427.52] if we had conversations before about how I was like yeah omni is cool but like I wouldn't find +[3427.52 --> 3434.28] room for it in my house like yeah I'm gonna have like a dedicated like you know quarter of a room +[3434.28 --> 3440.92] for like my bird simulator machine and my goat simulator machine and my farmer simulator machine +[3440.92 --> 3447.12] it's like it's gonna turn you know what gaming is going back to arcade size machines they're gonna +[3447.12 --> 3451.02] they should get it to the point where there's one and it's like a transformer you tell what game you +[3451.02 --> 3456.52] want to play and it just like changes itself that would be amazing somebody kickstart that I'm not +[3456.52 --> 3460.14] gonna give you my money because I know you can't build it I was just gonna say don't kickstart it +[3460.14 --> 3467.22] because you will never be successful um it won't work but I like how you think yeah exactly um but +[3467.22 --> 3471.58] yeah I hope they have this kind of stuff like science world yeah that would be cool or or different +[3471.58 --> 3477.70] things like that so you can actually tell us world of science can you believe that like it's like +[3477.70 --> 3485.32] telcos you know can you is is there another way that you could demonstrate that you have too much +[3485.32 --> 3491.62] money tell us world of science rogers arena yeah like no oh no no no no no science world goes beyond +[3491.62 --> 3498.02] that so sponsoring arenas that's one thing that's that's like yeah we don't know what to do here's all +[3498.02 --> 3504.08] the money to name your arena whatever it is uh telos world of science they bought it they own it +[3504.08 --> 3511.84] what yeah so science world is uh is a dome in vancouver that's really cool it's actually fantastic +[3511.84 --> 3515.94] science world after dark is like one of the coolest great place to take the kids great place to even go +[3515.94 --> 3520.70] on a date like they just have cool exhibits that are sciencey and like puzzles you can do and +[3520.70 --> 3525.94] they've done it before multiple times me too um so science world's fantastic so tell us actually they +[3525.94 --> 3530.22] were running out of money because it was publicly funded and you know it's like anything cool not +[3530.22 --> 3537.98] enough people go because everyone's too busy playing video games um so i've been like five six times +[3537.98 --> 3545.18] so tell us one of our local telcos just bought the thing just like okay whatever okay speaking of just +[3545.18 --> 3550.26] buying the thing i guess it's time for our sponsor segment so we're gonna start with dollar shave club +[3550.26 --> 3560.18] oh no no no no i'm actually i'm actually i finally got why the banana exists i was like this is weird +[3560.18 --> 3564.92] and i knew it was here like it was prepped to be here and like if you wanted to eat the freaking +[3564.92 --> 3570.52] banana you could have eaten it before so dollar shave club sent us a second package because you can see +[3570.52 --> 3575.14] that between me wasting all of our shave butter i actually really wish i hadn't wasted it it smells +[3575.14 --> 3579.82] really nice and it's like kind of nice to use so between me wasting all of our shave butter +[3579.82 --> 3585.86] taran stealing one of the razor handles and someone else taking off with a pack of blades +[3585.86 --> 3592.88] i'm not even sure um they're not they're not in the box anymore yeah maybe he asked you did he +[3592.88 --> 3598.34] well i wasn't paying attention so dollar shave club sent us a new pack of it so we can show you i guess +[3598.34 --> 3602.94] what the smaller follow-up packages look like once you sign up for the club but basically the way +[3602.94 --> 3606.70] dollar shave club works if you haven't heard of it before i'm just going to switch to our ah yes join +[3606.70 --> 3611.48] the club visit dollarshaveclub.com slash linus is what i really wanted to do was go to this one +[3611.48 --> 3619.42] is you go ahead and you sign up and the first time you get a handle you get some blades and you get a +[3619.42 --> 3624.40] pretty pretty spectacular shave they have multiple products so they've got everything from like for +[3624.40 --> 3629.88] okay so here to put this in perspective for six dollars and fifty cents you get a four blade razor +[3629.88 --> 3635.38] um the last razor you'll ever need gentle shave single stroke their commercials fantastic and even +[3635.38 --> 3639.46] their most expensive offering is under ten dollars you're looking at the canadian site right now because +[3639.46 --> 3644.06] i'm canadian and it automatically redirects me but in the u.s the prices are actually slightly cheaper +[3644.06 --> 3650.92] all they have to really say about themselves is look the blades are great they're a fraction of the +[3650.92 --> 3655.72] cost of what you'll pay at the store and you don't have to deal with the hassle of driving over to +[3655.72 --> 3661.72] the store and dealing with you know fighting someone to open up the stupid compartment that +[3661.72 --> 3666.08] contains the razor and going and getting the key i mean i don't know when the last time you tried to +[3666.08 --> 3672.22] get service at a grocery store was but um there's nobody there sorry i don't think i've ever actually +[3672.22 --> 3676.50] tried to get service at a grocery store in theory they have people like in the cosmetics department +[3676.50 --> 3681.98] where normally you would find um cosmetics department i've seen people yeah so you can usually go get one +[3681.98 --> 3688.80] of them to come and help you with the shaving supplies but like see this is the fact that i can +[3688.80 --> 3695.32] tell this story at all addresses why the need for something like dollar shave club exists where they +[3695.32 --> 3700.28] deal with it for you every month you're gonna get a new pack of blades so you can shave with a fresh +[3700.28 --> 3704.54] razor every week you can also order their shave butter whenever you run out and you can get their +[3704.54 --> 3709.14] one wipe charlies which are peppermint scented butt wipes for men and they're i mean i'm not gonna i'm not +[3709.14 --> 3713.32] gonna sugarcoat this because trust me if you were to sugarcoat something that you wipe your butt with +[3713.32 --> 3715.14] that granulation is not going to be cool +[3715.14 --> 3721.42] anyway sorry i'm not going to sugarcoat this basically they're pre-moistened towelettes that +[3721.42 --> 3727.50] smell nice and just to help in terms of effectiveness when you're trying to you know gather up the troops +[3727.50 --> 3736.02] so to speak and have them not smell when you're sitting next to people you know what my job isn't as +[3736.02 --> 3741.32] easy as you might think it is i do it sometimes i know it's not that easy all i'm trying to say guys is +[3741.32 --> 3746.72] head over to dollarshaveclub.com slash line to sign up for the club get a great shave every day and don't +[3746.72 --> 3753.66] worry about the hassle of buying razors any more and i think that's all we have to say about that and are you +[3753.66 --> 3764.36] really gonna do this to me wow go along with your integration linus all right so thank you asus for +[3764.36 --> 3772.70] sponsoring the wan show we are proudly using the asus g750 jay-z gaming notebook for all of our wan show +[3772.70 --> 3778.72] needs and actually needs that go beyond the wan show since you messed up my last integration why don't +[3778.72 --> 3783.36] you go ahead and talk about why you took the g750 jay-z which happens to belong to the company +[3783.36 --> 3789.72] on a personal trip with you what was exactly the point of that well the the the point was that i +[3789.72 --> 3796.42] had to test out a tegra note so i had a phone i had a tegra note and i had a laptop and part of my +[3796.42 --> 3802.92] idea was if i needed to do something what did i go to grab so i needed a laptop that being said i i might +[3802.92 --> 3810.52] own one um so basically you decided like oh well this one's pretty badass so even though i have my +[3810.52 --> 3816.14] own laptop that i just i haven't even seen that in a while have you just junked it oh no i was using +[3816.14 --> 3821.10] it for network diagnosis okay so you haven't just completely claimed this at this point although you +[3821.10 --> 3826.36] basically tried you know what's funny is when we first found out we were getting these he didn't even +[3826.36 --> 3831.18] know what the specs of the ones we were getting were like no idea i'm just like yeah we're getting new +[3831.18 --> 3836.00] asus gaming notebooks and he's like oh uh we're getting them for wanshow and i'm like yeah he's +[3836.00 --> 3839.30] like oh well when we're done with wanshow i can replace my desktop with it right i'm like +[3839.30 --> 3845.30] ah it was a gaming level notebook i knew it was going to be faster than the desktop that i have which +[3845.30 --> 3852.66] like i'm happy if it doesn't crash it's not even that bad it's got a quad core yeah but like oh man +[3852.66 --> 3860.42] okay so the point of the g750 jay-z it's not the lightest thing ever okay it's a little bit on the +[3860.42 --> 3865.20] thicker side it's a little bit on the heavier side it's not an ultra book but the point of it +[3865.20 --> 3870.86] is that it delivers pretty near a desktop grade experience out of a notebook something that is +[3870.86 --> 3874.62] actually portable and you know what i've actually observed like i've been running on battery for the +[3874.62 --> 3882.52] entire show here and compared to my dell my xps which ran out of battery in two hours and 55 minutes +[3882.52 --> 3886.86] or something today i'm sitting with like three hours left of battery even though we've been streaming +[3886.86 --> 3893.50] for over an hour now and i've been using it without with battery before the show so i mean i i like that +[3893.50 --> 3897.84] the thing i like about a large notebook is that they can go ahead and put a big old battery in it +[3897.84 --> 3902.66] and the fact that the gpu is not even on when you're just doing basic things with it means that +[3902.66 --> 3907.04] you don't actually deal with that power loss you know that right yeah i know but there's still +[3907.04 --> 3912.02] technically it's a little bit it's not much these days it's not much yeah i forget what the features +[3912.02 --> 3918.28] optimus right that's awkward i was like oh yeah i don't remember what that's called anymore but the +[3918.28 --> 3924.04] point is that it comes with a gtx 880m which is about equivalent to a gtx 770 desktop gpu and it +[3924.04 --> 3930.44] comes with a car i7 4700 hq which is actually not really equivalent to anything um intel's desktop +[3930.44 --> 3936.52] cpus are faster but still in our testing we found that it kept up you know running bioshock infinite on +[3936.52 --> 3941.88] ultra battlefield 4 and all that stuff with a pretty reasonable gaming desktop so yeah that's all we have to +[3941.88 --> 3947.32] say about that thank you dollar shave club thank you for thank you asus for sponsoring the show +[3947.32 --> 3952.44] remember guys if you want to join the club and get a great shave not like you you've just stopped +[3952.44 --> 3957.36] shaving entirely haven't you well my dollar shave club razor had to be like borrowed for an integration +[3957.36 --> 3962.92] and stuff and then oh that's why because i was saying because i knew at least two of them were +[3962.92 --> 3967.68] missing and i was like oh one of the handles is back ew it has like stuff on it is that you and then +[3967.68 --> 3972.34] i probably don't really want it back okay well i'll i'll give you one back again because because i i +[3972.34 --> 3977.72] specifically asked them for a new one i'm going to a birthday party on saturday night so i'm gonna +[3977.72 --> 3985.20] have to grind my face with my no i'll razor take the take the razor jeez killing me here anyway guys +[3985.20 --> 3990.18] you can sign up at dollar shave club.com slash linus and for the g750 jay-z i think you guys know where +[3990.18 --> 3999.08] to buy notebooks there are lots of places to buy notebooks like um the notebook.com is that no +[3999.08 --> 4004.20] that's probably not a thing i actually don't know that's probably for the movie yeah i would think so +[4004.20 --> 4008.90] let's see all right so we're gonna go ahead and have a look at whether people would be excited to +[4008.90 --> 4014.66] see an apple slash beats co-developed product the uh overwhelming majority of you say no or maybe +[4014.66 --> 4021.60] and the underwhelming that's a pretty flat vote the underwhelming minority of you say yes but then +[4021.60 --> 4029.52] yeah so for most of you zero cares were given okay i get it but i will objectively evaluate anything +[4029.52 --> 4034.56] that comes out of that partnership before before the show was on he asked me about it and i said i +[4034.56 --> 4038.86] just can't really bring myself to care very much and he's like well you should probably blah blah blah +[4038.86 --> 4044.12] i was like yeah but it's from two companies that i'm not ever gonna buy anything from you will +[4044.12 --> 4049.76] never buy anything from apple probably not what if the i watch is fantastic but then i'd have to +[4049.76 --> 4056.94] get that whole ecosystem that's how apple works really yeah it would have to be really legendary +[4056.94 --> 4061.72] what if the iphone 6 is fantastic it could be but if you look at the trending every single time that +[4061.72 --> 4070.58] jobs goes away every single he went away once twice well he died yeah really that's twice you're +[4070.58 --> 4078.16] gonna bring up jobs is death i tried to do it lightly i tried to do it really lightly actually +[4078.16 --> 4087.10] just didn't work at all all right so semantics vp says antivirus is dead this was posted on the +[4087.10 --> 4093.52] forum by nice hat along with some very amusing pictures this one's fantastic if you guys can't +[4093.52 --> 4099.48] read it it's an anonymous facebook post my computer's being really slow i forgot it had a virus i'm just +[4099.48 --> 4107.12] gonna shut it down and stop using it until it goes away text me and then it's just the most appropriate +[4107.12 --> 4113.20] use of this guy yeah that i think i have ever seen yeah probably me too that's a really good picture +[4113.20 --> 4120.54] that's fantastic and you know the it would it would be funnier if uh if we didn't know people like that +[4120.54 --> 4126.58] oh yeah yeah but i think we all do so what's your take on this is antivirus well okay first of all we +[4126.58 --> 4131.86] should probably so basically uh what brian die says so this is senior vice senior vp of information +[4131.86 --> 4137.10] securities we don't think of antivirus as a money maker anymore and that he points out that hackers +[4137.10 --> 4145.76] are increasingly increasingly using novel bugs as ways to gain control of a system or um gain +[4145.76 --> 4150.46] information or whatever else it is that they're trying to do as opposed to straight up computer +[4150.46 --> 4157.02] viruses and mr die estimates that antivirus now catches just 45 percent of cyber attacks i mean +[4157.02 --> 4163.80] we've known for quite some time that spyware or adware were actually larger issues than traditional +[4163.80 --> 4170.70] viruses but i i guess i've just never heard it from someone at a company like semantech there's another +[4170.70 --> 4175.52] thing though like one i think one of the big problems here is where he actually says it we don't see it as a +[4175.52 --> 4182.12] money maker in any way and i think that stands out more than anything because almost everyone i know +[4182.12 --> 4185.68] in the tech industry not everyone but almost everyone i know in the tech industry is running +[4185.68 --> 4192.38] a combination of antivirus software the same one almost everybody they run windows stock i don't +[4192.38 --> 4198.78] even remember windows whatever windows not defender security essentials yeah microsoft security +[4198.78 --> 4203.18] essentials mse there we go microsoft security essentials for passive scanning of viruses because +[4203.18 --> 4206.86] there's a big difference between when it's just running constantly looking for things and when +[4206.86 --> 4211.48] you manually run it huge difference so i see most people that i know are running that for kind of +[4211.48 --> 4215.88] passive scanning and then once every one or once in a while this is a really good idea for a straw poll +[4215.88 --> 4222.10] once every once in a while they will download and run mbam or malware bytes and then run it for +[4222.10 --> 4228.14] its active scan the manual one remove everything that it catches and then just uninstall it none of that +[4228.14 --> 4234.62] costs any money and the majority of people that i know that even run antiviruses are doing that combo +[4234.62 --> 4241.56] or just mse microsoft security essentials not even the mbam once in a while um so i can totally see +[4241.56 --> 4247.28] where they're talking about it not being a money maker um i'm surprised they're taking the stance they +[4247.28 --> 4252.38] are we're going like with the fake data and all that kind of stuff considering that already exists +[4252.38 --> 4258.14] with honey pots like the i don't see them proposing anything that's really new these are all things +[4258.14 --> 4263.80] that already exist so i find that a little bit interesting um and i don't think antivirus is +[4263.80 --> 4268.12] unimportant i think it might be unimportant to certain people yeah for the random average joe it's +[4268.12 --> 4271.58] probably fine if you just pay attention to what you're searching you don't click on anything super +[4271.58 --> 4275.14] stupid maybe you've been around on the internet for a really long time and you're really good at +[4275.14 --> 4280.12] identifying download now buttons at this point and you can read the url at the bottom of your browser +[4280.12 --> 4283.00] when you're highlighting buttons to make sure you're not going to some ad and you're actually +[4283.00 --> 4287.16] downloading what you want um and stuff like that maybe you're good with that and you kind of either +[4287.16 --> 4291.94] run mse or nothing and that's fine you're probably okay but at the corporate level i think it still +[4291.94 --> 4296.48] really matters um when if someone gets into your network and deletes everything on your server it's +[4296.48 --> 4302.48] catastrophic um i've done it work for some law firms way back in the day i don't do it anymore +[4302.48 --> 4309.74] um but it was i thought you still did i do but i'm kind of just like outside support right okay and +[4309.74 --> 4314.06] like if they have a question they'll email me but everything's automated now that i don't i used to +[4314.06 --> 4318.94] go in there all the time because it was more like i was taking over for someone else so i had to do a +[4318.94 --> 4323.42] lot of stuff right and now it's more just like if they have a problem they'll call me in every once in +[4323.42 --> 4327.74] a while like every few months i'll go in for a while and like make sure everything's good like i'll go in +[4327.74 --> 4332.50] for a whole saturday right but it's not super common anymore so sorry you were talking about how you were +[4332.50 --> 4338.64] doing yeah so that them huge really big deal they do a thing where i have it where one of their +[4338.64 --> 4343.52] employees that's somewhat tech savvy walks in and plugs in a cable once every week and it does a big +[4343.52 --> 4348.60] backup to a computer plugs in one cable unplugs another cable so it does a big backup to an +[4348.60 --> 4353.96] offline server that's almost always offline so it's it could still get infected because you are plugging +[4353.96 --> 4358.16] into a computer that is normally online right but it's probably not going to happen to the point +[4358.16 --> 4363.46] where everything's going to be deleted right or if it is they have two servers and like they're +[4363.46 --> 4366.80] both running different operating systems like there's there's a bunch of layers of security +[4366.80 --> 4371.16] that's a really big deal because if they lose everything they're screwed right they also have +[4371.16 --> 4376.22] off-site backups they have like multiple layers of security so that to be able to take them down +[4376.22 --> 4382.54] you'd have to take down an off-site backup that's in the states two things on site like dropbox style +[4382.54 --> 4387.62] not actually dropbox but drop stop dropbox style backups like all this kind of stuff it's not going +[4387.62 --> 4393.02] to happen that's important um and then they run antivirus all over the place because it's important +[4393.02 --> 4397.48] because their data is super important right is someone being able to see that i have 800 hours +[4397.48 --> 4403.28] on morrowind super important probably not right okay i think it depends who you are well it looks +[4403.28 --> 4410.50] like actually our our users are pretty um pretty pretty safe they practice safe safe internet browsing +[4410.50 --> 4417.52] so 30 percent of you are using real-time scanning and doing periodic cleanups with three are about 12 +[4417.52 --> 4421.82] percent of you doing periodic cleanups only about the same number doing real-time scanning only and +[4421.82 --> 4427.86] about 11 percent of you using no antivirus with the majority of the respondents or at least more +[4427.86 --> 4434.60] than any of the other replies uh asking me to eat more bananas it was hot um unfortunately since a +[4434.60 --> 4441.48] banana isn't a real thing i really can't do that so i i well i appreciate the uh i appreciate the the +[4441.48 --> 4451.32] thought though that was great you guys are great okay so intel's sky lake there have been some +[4451.32 --> 4457.56] leaked documental relations this was posted on the forum by qwerty warrior the original article is +[4457.56 --> 4466.12] from tech power up and um basically it's 100 series it's going to be coming with ddr4 support it's going +[4466.12 --> 4473.24] to be 14 nanometer processors and it's going to feature alpine ridge thunderbolt running at 40 gigabit +[4473.24 --> 4480.62] per second man that's fast i'm kind of surprised they're jumping into 100 series i see a lot of +[4480.62 --> 4487.56] companies when they get to the top they just reset okay okay yeah i don't really mind it's just i'm +[4487.56 --> 4493.22] saying i'm just kind of surprised i mean amd switched over to an x but then intel already has x whatever +[4493.22 --> 4501.68] so yeah what you gonna do painted yourselves into that corner didn't you so basically compared to uh +[4501.68 --> 4507.98] compared to uh haswell haswell refresh and broadwell and to be clear guys haswell refresh is not a +[4507.98 --> 4516.22] significant change over haswell it's just like slightly faster um sat express has been added uh if +[4516.22 --> 4522.96] you if you take the the the heatsink off of a z97 board it says z87 rev2 on it like it's not a big +[4522.96 --> 4529.92] deal but uh broadwell is going to be a small generational change or uh rather rather that'll +[4529.92 --> 4535.02] be a significant generational change in terms of the manufacturing process and then beyond that that's +[4535.02 --> 4541.18] when we're getting a new architecture so that'll be sky lake and that's coming in 2015 i'm actually +[4541.18 --> 4547.08] curious to see when broadwell is going to arrive i guess that could be coming very soon then huh +[4547.08 --> 4551.84] i don't know intel doesn't really tell me anything they just sort of like stuff arrives and i'm like +[4551.84 --> 4557.64] yay cool um let's let's like let's like check it out so it's going to have a whole bunch of really cool +[4557.64 --> 4562.96] stuff so they're going to have much improved wireless they're going to have much improved thunderbolt +[4562.96 --> 4570.80] and they are also going to have hopefully much improved cpus so this whole roadmap has been leaked +[4570.80 --> 4577.14] i guess that's really all i have to say about that isn't it yeah there's honestly there isn't a ton +[4577.14 --> 4583.50] of information right now yeah so yeah take that and do whatever you want 2015 is exciting you know +[4583.50 --> 4591.14] yeah even if it's late 2015 i guess if we got like a very late 2014 broadwell then a late 2015 skylight +[4591.14 --> 4595.96] could make sense yep and that's uh that's actually pretty in line with some of the estimates we saw +[4595.96 --> 4600.76] on that thunderbolt 40 gigabit per second article that came out a little while ago how that makes sense +[4600.76 --> 4605.74] yeah so the timing is probably about right now i think we should straw poll this because something +[4605.74 --> 4610.82] that you talked about before the show uh that had to do with kataku the next article you're doing i +[4610.82 --> 4617.96] want to see why people care or maybe uh twitter blitz twitter blitz yeah okay so um there there was a +[4617.96 --> 4624.10] so this was posted on the forum by top war gamer thank you very much for that ceo bobby kotick has +[4624.10 --> 4630.56] revealed that activision is spending 500 million to try and make destiny a hit that's half a +[4630.56 --> 4638.26] billion dollars which is a little less than double the unprecedented over quarter billion dollars +[4638.26 --> 4645.22] that rockstar paid to get gta 5 made um there i saw quite a few people attacking the article saying +[4645.22 --> 4651.74] that because it's on kotaku it's therefore uh completely not credible and completely stupid +[4651.74 --> 4657.42] but i would like to hear from i would like to hear from our our users maybe uh i'll create a straw poll +[4657.42 --> 4665.16] here pretty quick here guys and then uh is kotaku because honestly a lot of the stuff i've read on +[4665.16 --> 4669.26] there like no one's right 100 of the time but a lot of the stuff i've read on there has turned out to +[4669.26 --> 4675.58] be perfectly fine i i i have no idea it's possible that we missed something yeah like that's totally +[4675.58 --> 4682.18] possible like was there a huge controversy like that whole i don't know uh what was it la times tesla +[4682.18 --> 4687.24] review thing i think it was the la times tesla review washington post talking about oculus washington +[4687.24 --> 4692.18] post tesla review well uh i'm not sure there was someone i think it might have been more than one +[4692.18 --> 4699.86] group actually for tesla uh new york times sorry it was new york times uh they eventually apologized for +[4699.86 --> 4704.88] that and all that noise so yeah so maybe they maybe kotaku has done some stuff that neither of us is aware +[4704.88 --> 4710.34] of yeah for sure yes no what's kotaku +[4710.34 --> 4720.56] okay so i'm gonna go ahead and allow multiple choices if you're gonna have that on the poll +[4720.56 --> 4727.60] no people have to pick one it's just gonna be skewed now can you imagine if like political elections +[4727.60 --> 4733.40] had multiple choices i would actually be more incentivized to vote me too actually because if i +[4733.40 --> 4737.90] could just say i don't care they should have multiple choices they should have multiple choices +[4737.90 --> 4742.18] because you could be like i don't care but these ones like any one of these ones is okay because +[4742.18 --> 4747.16] then you wouldn't have to worry about the vote getting split between and then that would probably +[4747.16 --> 4751.08] help the whole two-party system thing anyways we probably shouldn't talk about politics yeah we +[4751.08 --> 4754.34] probably shouldn't talk about politics i'm sure there's a good reason that uh we don't allow +[4754.34 --> 4755.20] multiple choice +[4755.20 --> 4762.54] yeah i actually can't think of one maybe it's because like the the real flaw +[4762.54 --> 4767.68] in a multiple choice test for example is that someone can just guess and still get a passing +[4767.68 --> 4775.26] grade whereas on a political on an election ballot there's no right answer so it's inherently flawed +[4775.26 --> 4780.92] multiple choice doesn't address that by giving us a possibility to get it right maybe that's the issue +[4780.92 --> 4786.06] what i'm just i'm just like that doesn't make any sense +[4786.06 --> 4798.60] it's called when show not not when's show weekly analysis news and sense +[4798.60 --> 4806.64] i think with analysis people kind of assume that there's gonna be some amount of sense they could but +[4806.64 --> 4811.78] they'd be i mean look at they're voting for bananas that's because you didn't put multiple +[4811.78 --> 4816.28] choice on this poll i don't have you put a course i don't have to put anything on my poll +[4816.28 --> 4820.12] i don't have to put anything on my poll that i don't want to +[4820.12 --> 4825.68] wow let me make the polls +[4825.68 --> 4836.04] are you making a poll right now maybe no one will know they can't see my screen or what's behind my +[4836.04 --> 4846.96] screen this show is the best this show speaking of things that are the best this is fantastic +[4846.96 --> 4857.36] fantastic posted on the forum originally by uh l3 mo back black moses that makes more sense +[4857.36 --> 4864.98] posted originally on the forum by black moses the smartest protest ever what do we got the smartest +[4864.98 --> 4872.44] protest ever yeah am i in the wrong section right now no no fast lunches drivers i thought we were in +[4872.44 --> 4877.66] a different thing we're talking about net neutrality yeah but there's a total okay anyways there's two +[4877.66 --> 4881.74] topics about net neutrality i thought you entered that one i thought you're talking about this one +[4881.74 --> 4885.68] yeah that is the one i was talking about where did that go oh that looked at the wrong article +[4885.68 --> 4891.40] that's why i was like what okay this makes more sense okay so back to this okay go +[4891.40 --> 4897.56] okay so what they're doing is well this web host and i think i think there's now a github +[4897.56 --> 4901.36] that has the code for it so other people can implement it all this kind of stuff um but what +[4901.36 --> 4904.64] they're doing is they're making it so that different ips that access their website that +[4904.64 --> 4913.56] are from the fcc are getting incredibly slow traffic so like 28.8 dial up not even the fastest dial up +[4913.56 --> 4918.64] that we had no crappy dial up yeah so like if you try and if the fcc tries to access their website it'll +[4918.64 --> 4923.92] go that slow um i think it's kind of cool and it's clever but i don't think it's gonna matter unless +[4923.92 --> 4928.12] like google does it it's well it's not gonna matter unless google does it but it's not really +[4928.12 --> 4934.06] the point the point is i get it and it's cool and it does drive a point and it's very interesting so +[4934.06 --> 4939.30] it's it's we've got the ferengi plan or frangie i can never remember i'm not a star trek guy the +[4939.30 --> 4945.42] ferengi plan is a special fcc only internet plan that costs a thousand dollars per year and removes +[4945.42 --> 4950.92] the 28.8 kilobit per second modem throttle to the fcc we will happily take credit cards bitcoin dogecoin +[4950.92 --> 4955.76] and dogecoin from crooked fcc executives that probably have plenty of money from bribes on +[4955.76 --> 4960.58] our donations page sorry we don't accept ladding them yet so though they obviously the whole thing +[4960.58 --> 4966.74] is just purely a joke but the point is that net neutrality is important because it will prevent +[4966.74 --> 4973.64] situations where an isp can hold your internet connection or your the speed with which you can +[4973.64 --> 4978.54] connect to certain services ransom unless you're willing to pay them more money for it and the problem +[4978.54 --> 4985.54] with with them holding let's say let's say i'm i'm luke's internet service provider and i go +[4985.54 --> 4991.66] you know what luke i probably don't like you you uh canada you all suck well whatever man you're stuck +[4991.66 --> 4996.24] here what are you gonna do leave leave canada canada is great for all kinds of other reasons you can deal +[4996.24 --> 5001.54] with crappy internet okay so look dude you play a lot of games you watch a lot of twitch streams twitch +[5001.54 --> 5006.64] streams man they use a lot of bandwidth that means we gotta go buy like switches and crap and like +[5006.64 --> 5010.96] you know those switches are really expensive look don't worry about that those switches are really +[5010.96 --> 5016.72] expensive so we need you to give us some money to you know justify another football stadium because +[5016.72 --> 5021.22] you're because you're a heavy user okay you're putting more of a load on your fat you're putting +[5021.22 --> 5027.48] more of a load on our system that's a fat joke than the other users okay so the problem is that then +[5027.48 --> 5033.06] mr isp gets to extract a bunch of money from him because you go okay look if you want to access twitch fast +[5033.06 --> 5038.34] we can give you like a fast lane for that because otherwise in the background i could be slowing down +[5038.34 --> 5044.00] his twitch stream and we see this all the time you can go do a speed test tomorrow and it'll have like +[5044.00 --> 5047.82] a great speed and then you go and try to load a youtube video or watch a movie on netflix and you've +[5047.82 --> 5053.26] got this degraded internet experience so i'm i'm telling mr user i'm like look okay yeah you want fast +[5053.26 --> 5057.98] twitch yeah sure no problem man just give us a couple more bucks and then i'm gonna turn around and i'm +[5057.98 --> 5062.42] gonna tell twitch hey you guys are putting a bunch of load on our network with all of our users +[5062.42 --> 5067.22] downloading your streams you've got to give us money to and so all of a sudden we create the +[5067.22 --> 5072.46] situation where the isps can double dip and just take additional money to build infrastructure that +[5072.46 --> 5076.68] they should have built in the first place which they got paid to build in the first place if you're +[5076.68 --> 5083.28] in the states and two which they don't need they're so baller when it when it's at the point where like +[5083.28 --> 5088.08] the only people that are buying these stupid investments which is putting your name in front of a +[5088.08 --> 5095.06] sports stadium they're all isps or like cell providers are you kidding me it's because they're +[5095.06 --> 5102.46] just rolling in money it's super dumb they don't need any more money anyways i do like the protest +[5102.46 --> 5107.62] though i think it's pretty cool i think it's fantastic i think it really makes a point to people who +[5107.62 --> 5114.16] maybe just don't care enough maybe they just don't care enough to to look into it like i mean +[5114.16 --> 5121.18] you know what let's all be honest with ourselves do you do a hundred percent the best job you possibly +[5121.18 --> 5128.74] can at work every day do you do one hundred percent of the due diligence maybe a few of you do some of +[5128.74 --> 5135.56] you probably don't i'm not asking you the point i'm not even creating a poll for this i'm just i'm +[5135.56 --> 5141.96] just asking you guys to ask yourselves you know do you do whether your job is to dig ditches or to cook +[5141.96 --> 5148.22] food or to serve food or to make internet videos or to drive a truck or whatever your job is there's +[5148.22 --> 5156.04] thousands and thousands of jobs do you do it the best every day maybe not so maybe maybe what we're +[5156.04 --> 5160.26] what we just need to do is we need to wake up someone who's been asleep at the wheel a little +[5160.26 --> 5165.18] bit and go hey can you create some havoc internally over there and like get some attention around this +[5165.18 --> 5170.30] and this is the kind of protest that does more than just create noise because emails are easy +[5170.30 --> 5176.02] to ignore facebook polls or protests or whatever you just ignore that crap because it's just stupid +[5176.02 --> 5182.36] it does it's not relevant whereas when someone goes to access the internet and it's slow and they go oh +[5182.36 --> 5188.22] why is it slow you're starting the the the inquisitive process i was going to say inquisition +[5188.22 --> 5193.04] that's not right you're starting the inquisitive process you're getting them wondering what's going on +[5193.04 --> 5196.56] and once they understand what's going on hey well someone's slowing down my internet why are they +[5196.56 --> 5201.76] doing that my internet should be fast right and then we can hope that the light bulb turns on so i +[5201.76 --> 5205.16] really i thought this was a really effective way to get that point across and i hope it works yeah +[5205.16 --> 5211.18] no it is really cool actually um oh i wasn't even aware of this this is interesting uh there's +[5211.18 --> 5219.10] apparently some new graphics card coming power color oh yeah has a new devil 13 this one has um no +[5219.10 --> 5224.00] post by brown ninja so i'm sure it'll be in the post somewhere um but it has like the nemo fin +[5224.00 --> 5230.06] thing where the fan has the little fins in there is this that one let's go see yeah see the little +[5230.06 --> 5235.34] tiny fins on the inside it also has four eight pin power connections four eight you'll see if you +[5235.34 --> 5240.50] keep on going down there's the yeah i knew it'd be in here somewhere there boom look at that boom +[5240.50 --> 5248.68] it's just a monstrous card so they ditched the whole ai o idea hair cooler yeah air cooled rather +[5248.68 --> 5254.82] wow four eight triple slot four eight pins what the heck the thing is ridiculous only three of those +[5254.82 --> 5259.82] four are required so if you want a little bit of extra overclocking headroom you can plug in the fourth +[5259.82 --> 5268.64] and wow look at the backplate i like it it's actually pretty cool yeah it looks badass yeah double 13 +[5268.64 --> 5273.84] huh someone in the comments somewhere on here i don't remember where it was +[5273.84 --> 5280.46] was like so one eight pin for the gpu and then one for each fan for each +[5280.46 --> 5286.78] can't remember exactly how he said it but it was awesome them nemo fans when you got little fins like +[5286.78 --> 5290.84] that you gotta like work pretty hard it takes a full eight pin for each one of those fans guys +[5290.84 --> 5298.24] yeah get it right geez yeah that's kind of awesome should we get jump into bill logs um yeah sure i +[5298.24 --> 5303.06] think that's pretty much it i think i'm i'm pretty much done for the week so here we go we have +[5303.06 --> 5308.70] something really special after bill logs guys so do we yeah we do do i know about it i told you +[5308.70 --> 5315.10] before the show that doesn't mean i know so the first one is dope do i have office on here i hope so +[5315.10 --> 5323.10] i hope so too it looks fine oh i have some kind of office oh i want to try it for a limited time +[5323.10 --> 5323.60] oh +[5323.60 --> 5334.80] not good it looks fine though i think wow all the tabs no one can see what's going on hey everyone +[5334.80 --> 5343.76] hey guys sorry where did it go it's here wow i'm tired there we go well it looks okay +[5343.76 --> 5350.96] view either way every single time we do the bill logs every single bill log i talk about i'm like you +[5350.96 --> 5354.94] should probably just go check it out the forum so you can see everything so do that again check out +[5354.94 --> 5358.58] these guys full bill logs really have tons of pictures you can see everything about it you can +[5358.58 --> 5362.40] go to the voting thread and see everyone who submitted there's some guys that submitted that +[5362.40 --> 5367.78] had really nice builds um the thing with having bill logs per the week is there isn't enough and +[5367.78 --> 5371.60] the thing with having bill logs per the month is there's a lot of really awesome ones and they +[5371.60 --> 5375.44] don't all get through so be sure to check out the voting thread because wow you can see +[5375.44 --> 5382.62] everything this build is super clean the hard tubing really really popular thing lately and i'm +[5382.62 --> 5390.50] okay with that that looks fantastic yeah very cool absolutely beautiful but i well well this one is +[5390.50 --> 5396.04] really nice and very clean i personally appreciate the next one a little bit more you know i haven't +[5396.04 --> 5402.00] seen many great builds in the 900d now that i think about it it's like yeah it's big and it's like +[5402.00 --> 5406.30] liquid cooling optimized but it almost seems like corsair took the challenge out of it a little +[5406.30 --> 5411.68] bit for people by making it too easy to do a great build in so i think a lot of people were turned off +[5411.68 --> 5417.72] by that that's just my perception it's also extremely big and really heavy yeah but uh this one this one +[5417.72 --> 5428.22] oh sorry sorry sorry so this one is portal cube by jill yeah i don't know look at that that's fantastic +[5428.22 --> 5434.12] it looks better if you see it not on the stream and not like converted not in like 16 color mode +[5434.12 --> 5440.02] yeah um so there's uh there's a power supply on the bottom there's itx there and then you can go +[5440.02 --> 5444.72] ahead and check out all of the different photos of it so we should probably post a link to the build +[5444.72 --> 5449.24] log section i'm just going to track that down or if you want to i can go grab that if you jump on the +[5449.24 --> 5453.60] next one on your screen i'll post the thing in the chat sure work on that we've got an honorable mention +[5453.60 --> 5461.26] here guys project affinity do you remember now nope this is the computer that people i believe built +[5461.26 --> 5468.50] and distributed to linois oh cool yeah so a bunch of people on the forum i think it's a mainly people +[5468.50 --> 5474.52] from the um unofficial team speak yeah all got together built this computer got him a whole bunch +[5474.52 --> 5480.28] of games this is a list of games that he got wow that's more games than i own no well it's more +[5480.28 --> 5488.28] games than i play yes that is true and like nice ones to battlefield 4 star citizen star citizen like +[5488.28 --> 5493.06] big not just like oh we bought a humble indie bundle like this oh my god they got them secret +[5493.06 --> 5497.40] of the magic crystals that's a game about ponies um well yeah it is linois +[5497.40 --> 5509.78] so over 10 community members contributed and this is just a really cool a really cool example of the +[5509.78 --> 5514.40] community coming together and supporting each other i mean if you guys aren't already members +[5514.40 --> 5521.94] of the limus tech tips dot com forum you probably should be i mean this is just a small subset of +[5521.94 --> 5528.24] like the super cool guys and gals that make up the community here so you know we uh we appreciate +[5528.24 --> 5533.74] everyone just being part of it and we think it's really really awesome so i think uh that's probably +[5533.74 --> 5537.34] all i have to say about that yeah what's up with this stuff i'm not gonna do these today +[5537.34 --> 5544.64] oh i this is a company cogito that uh they they asked if i wanted to review the cogito pop and or +[5544.64 --> 5550.24] the cogito classic these are some smart watches that i think actually um are pretty unique in that +[5550.24 --> 5557.10] particularly the pop tries to make the smart watchness like by design it's not that smart +[5557.10 --> 5563.76] so instead of having a screen it's it's just an analog watch instead of having a screen that's like +[5563.76 --> 5567.54] blah blah blah read your text messages reply to your text messages talking to your wrist +[5567.54 --> 5574.42] um it just flashes hey that notification you got was uh text or it was an email or it was an instant +[5574.42 --> 5580.56] messaging thing and it just tells you sort of what kind of notification it was and then the classic +[5580.56 --> 5586.24] has an analog face and then it actually does go into a little bit more detail in terms of what types +[5586.24 --> 5590.74] of messages you got so it gives you battery indication and then you can read your messages on it as +[5590.74 --> 5595.54] well and it actually looks quite nice so i was like okay well i can't promise a review because i've +[5595.54 --> 5599.88] never heard of you before and i don't know if it's any good but you know if it's fantastic i'll do +[5599.88 --> 5603.38] a review and what i'll definitely do is try out the products and i'll talk about them on the wan show +[5603.38 --> 5607.80] so that's going to be coming sometime in the next week or two all right i think that's about it +[5607.80 --> 5614.08] so okay so thank you again to our sponsors dollar shave club join the club visit dollarshaveclub.com +[5614.08

Sorry we are a little bit late this week. +[5.00 --> 12.00] I'm gonna blame it on me being sick. This is my... well, I was gonna say tissue pile, but it's obviously toilet paper. +[12.00 --> 19.00] Never mind what I'll be doing with the toilet paper. It's for wiping my nose. Just calm down. +[19.00 --> 23.00] Anyway. We've got a great show for you guys today. +[23.00 --> 30.00] FreeSync, AMD's proposed equivalent, I guess, to G-Sync is apparently a thing. +[30.00 --> 34.00] We'll be talking about that in more detail, or maybe it isn't a thing. Maybe it's not a thing yet. +[34.00 --> 37.00] Yeah, I think that's really all there is to say. +[37.00 --> 43.00] Steam Dev Days was this week, so in addition to CES and all the stuff that's going on there, +[43.00 --> 49.00] plus the fact that we didn't have a show last week, so there was some stuff that's still important enough +[49.00 --> 54.00] from a couple weeks ago that we want to talk about, so there's a bunch of news around that. +[54.00 --> 59.00] Mozilla warns people to watch their code. More on that later. I'm not gonna go too deep into that. +[59.00 --> 66.00] And AMD 1355 Beta Driver is coming out with a ton of support for all their new technologies they've been talking about, +[66.00 --> 67.00] most namely Mantle. +[67.00 --> 72.00] Yeah, Mantle, and technologies nobody's been talking about, like True Audio. +[72.00 --> 75.00] Anyway, intro. +[79.00 --> 104.00] Today's show is brought to you by Squarespace, the easy way to create a beautiful website for your blog, store, +[104.00 --> 110.00] or I'm sure there are lots of other things you could want to create a website for, a portfolio for example, +[110.00 --> 113.00] or a company which is exactly what we use it for. +[113.00 --> 117.00] If you head over to linusmediagroup.com, you can check out our Squarespace website. +[117.00 --> 121.00] And thank you very much to Squarespace for sponsoring the show today. +[121.00 --> 128.00] Now while I buy some time, while I get back to the document, you know what, why don't we jump right into AMD's new driver. +[128.00 --> 134.00] So I think I'm actually, yep, yep, I'm gonna sign out on the forum here real quick. +[134.00 --> 135.00] There we go. +[135.00 --> 136.00] Good job. +[136.00 --> 137.00] And I'm gonna follow that link again. +[137.00 --> 138.00] BOOOOOOOM! +[138.00 --> 143.00] Alright, so this was posted by Tom P Picks. +[143.00 --> 144.00] Tom P Picks! +[144.00 --> 145.00] That's how I'm gonna say it. +[145.00 --> 147.00] I don't know how it's intended to be said. +[147.00 --> 155.00] But AMD's new beta driver is gonna be coming with mantle support, something people have been extremely excited about for quite some time. +[155.00 --> 157.00] Dual graphics frame pacing support. +[157.00 --> 162.00] So on an APU, dual graphics is what they used to call hybrid crossfire. +[162.00 --> 168.00] So that's where you use your integrated graphics and a discrete GPU to run in crossfire essentially. +[168.00 --> 170.00] But I guess now they call it dual graphics, whatever. +[170.00 --> 175.00] To use them both to make games or other applications potentially run faster. +[175.00 --> 176.00] So that's coming. +[176.00 --> 189.00] It's not a solution that I've ever really recommended in the past because typically you'd be better off spending a few more bucks on a much better discrete GPU and then just not bothering to use the integrated at all. +[189.00 --> 190.00] But who knows? +[190.00 --> 191.00] Maybe that'll be different. +[191.00 --> 192.00] Maybe we'll have a look at that. +[192.00 --> 194.00] HSA feature support is coming. +[194.00 --> 199.00] This is something people haven't been talking about enough outside of the hardcore tech circles. +[199.00 --> 202.00] So there will be more on that later in the show, I believe. +[202.00 --> 204.00] And if there isn't, then guys remind me. +[204.00 --> 209.00] Like spam my Twitter until I come back to it because we do need to talk about HSA. +[209.00 --> 212.00] And then of course, true audio support. +[212.00 --> 220.00] The feature that may be exciting at some point, but right now because there is absolutely no game support, is kind of like... +[220.00 --> 224.00] Oh, if I had a flag here in my toilet paper flag. +[224.00 --> 225.00] Oh God. +[225.00 --> 226.00] Woo! +[226.00 --> 227.00] I mean, it's great. +[227.00 --> 233.00] It really is an exciting technology having programmable, dedicated hardware just for audio. +[233.00 --> 234.00] Again. +[234.00 --> 236.00] I mean, remember, we used to have this. +[236.00 --> 240.00] Creative cards, EAX, environmental effects, acceleration. +[240.00 --> 241.00] And you know what? +[241.00 --> 242.00] It was good. +[242.00 --> 243.00] It worked. +[243.00 --> 245.00] It was better than crappy onboard solutions. +[245.00 --> 250.00] And then Microsoft brings Vista along and they're like, nope. +[250.00 --> 252.00] We don't need hardware accelerated sound anymore. +[252.00 --> 253.00] Go away. +[253.00 --> 254.00] Well, great. +[254.00 --> 256.00] Let's bring it back. +[256.00 --> 263.00] And true audio looks like the solution is just that I think there's like one AAA game thief that is going to support it right off the bat. +[263.00 --> 267.00] But if that goes really, really well, then that could be a very good thing. +[267.00 --> 272.00] So all of this is, I mean, there's a whole lot of theoretical. +[272.00 --> 278.00] I mean, this has kind of been Andy's thing lately is here's a thing that could be great, but you know, we'll... +[278.00 --> 279.00] We'll do it at some point. +[279.00 --> 280.00] We'll give it to you later. +[280.00 --> 282.00] Although a lot of them are coming out now. +[282.00 --> 283.00] Yeah. +[283.00 --> 290.00] And the fact that they're releasing this driver now could be an indicator that we're getting close to BF4 with Mantle. +[290.00 --> 291.00] Yep. +[291.00 --> 301.00] Obviously the driver or the driver kind of had to come first because EA and DICE could have been like, yay, Mantle game. +[301.00 --> 302.00] No driver. +[302.00 --> 303.00] No driver. +[303.00 --> 306.00] And it'd be like, you guys could feel like reviewers for a change. +[306.00 --> 311.00] We're like graphics cards show up on our doorstep and we're like, wow, it looks really good. +[311.00 --> 315.00] I wonder what I'm supposed to do with this alien technology. +[315.00 --> 321.00] Yeah, like I can put it in the slot and whoa, 1024 by 768. +[321.00 --> 322.00] No drivers. +[322.00 --> 325.00] So that's definitely exciting. +[325.00 --> 328.00] Or that's definitely something that had to happen. +[328.00 --> 329.00] There's actually some evidence. +[329.00 --> 330.00] They are backing up what they're saying. +[330.00 --> 332.00] Here's the Kaveri frame pacing feature. +[332.00 --> 336.00] So the red line shows smoother and better dual graphics performance. +[336.00 --> 338.00] Remember guys, variance is bad. +[338.00 --> 345.00] So this blue line is the variance in frame times and then this red line is actually very tight. +[345.00 --> 346.00] Looks quite good. +[346.00 --> 350.00] They've got a couple peaks here, but really not that bad at all. +[350.00 --> 352.00] Co-processing capabilities. +[352.00 --> 353.00] Oh, okay. +[353.00 --> 359.00] So I guess, should I just talk about HSA now and why it's exciting? +[359.00 --> 360.00] We can. +[360.00 --> 362.00] That makes sense because this is using... +[362.00 --> 364.00] Okay, this is a bit specific. +[364.00 --> 373.00] So this example right here is using the GPU that's built onto the Kaveri APU as a co-processor +[373.00 --> 377.00] specifically for gaming, but it could be used as a co-processor for lots of things. +[377.00 --> 383.00] But the thing that they're demoing right here is actually in a gaming application using a dedicated Radeon graphics card, +[383.00 --> 394.00] such as an R9 290, to render the scene and then using the R7 class onboard graphics to do physics calculations using OpenCL for example. +[394.00 --> 404.00] Now there are lots of things that could leverage this, whether it's Photoshop or whether it's video editing software or whatever else comes with OpenCL 2.0 support in the future, +[404.00 --> 410.00] which AMD showed off some specific examples of why it should be implemented because they're saying, +[410.00 --> 420.00] okay, well look, OpenCL 2.0, sure, it's new code, but it's a lot simpler than even OpenCL 1.x was to implement. +[420.00 --> 430.00] So there's no real reason why any software developer who wants to leverage the GPU for more power shouldn't just code an OpenCL 2.0, +[430.00 --> 436.00] which means that it'll be, the software will be able to leverage not only any OpenCL compatible GPU, +[436.00 --> 442.00] and that's from the AMD or the Nvidia side, but specifically the HSA architecture of Kaveri, +[442.00 --> 450.00] which means that both the CPU cores and the GPU cores can access the system memory at the same time and work on the same workloads, +[450.00 --> 458.00] which compared to having one of them work on one thing and one of them take instructions from the other about when to work on the other thing +[458.00 --> 462.00] and pass the information back and forth over PCI Express, this is going to be much more efficient. +[462.00 --> 468.00] They actually showed off some pretty compelling demos in Part 2 that you guys unfortunately missed, +[468.00 --> 473.00] but they were showing, okay, well let's take this versus a 4670K or a 4770K, +[473.00 --> 479.00] we're talking about a significantly less expensive processor, and there was some no-loop going on. +[479.00 --> 489.00] Speaking of no-loop, I've been working on a review of the Etymotic ER4 IEMs, and man, they sound amazing. +[489.00 --> 494.00] It's like if the musician found a way to beam sound into your head. +[494.00 --> 498.00] Well, it looks like, it does look like actually it could beam something into your head. +[498.00 --> 503.00] Yeah, and the isolation, speaking of penetrating your head, the isolation is outstanding, +[503.00 --> 508.00] but I gotta say, it reminds me of the episode of South Park where, do you know the It episode? +[508.00 --> 510.00] Where Mr. Garrison invents a new vehicle? +[510.00 --> 511.00] I never watched TV. +[511.00 --> 512.00] Okay, well, whatever. +[512.00 --> 520.00] It's the episode where Mr. Garrison invents a new vehicle that involves like a thing that goes into your rectum, +[520.00 --> 525.00] and then another thing that goes into your mouth, and then like these grips, and it's like extremely uncomfortable to operate. +[525.00 --> 530.00] But the slogan of the company is, it's better than flying! +[530.00 --> 538.00] And putting these into my ear actually kind of reminds me of the sort of the process in the episode of getting onto... +[538.00 --> 543.00] No, really, it's like, it's like actually kind of painful, but then once it's in there, it's kind of okay. +[543.00 --> 544.00] Yeah, okay. +[544.00 --> 547.00] Anyway, why don't we move on to our next topic? +[547.00 --> 549.00] Do you want to talk more about HSA in general, or...? +[549.00 --> 551.00] No, I think I pretty much said what I had to say. +[551.00 --> 557.00] I mean, we're going to be doing a build guide with a Kaveri CPU, and we're going to be finding some examples of HSA to show you guys +[557.00 --> 565.00] and how it can accelerate the computing experience, whether it's gaming or whether it's video editing or photo editing, +[565.00 --> 567.00] and it's extremely exciting. +[567.00 --> 570.00] So, there you go. New driver. Yay! +[570.00 --> 574.00] Speaking of new drivers, this has nothing to do with driving. +[574.00 --> 576.00] In fact, actually, that's kind of interesting. +[576.00 --> 579.00] Smart contact lenses, should you wear them while driving? +[579.00 --> 582.00] This was posted on the forum by Top War Gamer, and the original article is from NGadget. +[582.00 --> 584.00] Check this out, guys. +[584.00 --> 586.00] If you haven't heard about it already, then now you have. +[586.00 --> 591.00] This is the smart contact lens designed for, well, medical reasons. +[591.00 --> 595.00] This is not a Google Glass replacement, to be very clear. +[595.00 --> 600.00] I mean, it would be pretty cool if we could put a heads-up display on it. +[600.00 --> 602.00] Well, it might also eventually be. +[603.00 --> 610.00] But for now, we're looking at something that is designed to help folks suffering from diabetes monitor their glucose levels wirelessly. +[610.00 --> 613.00] And there's a couple points that I have to bring up about this. +[613.00 --> 616.00] So, number one is, holy balls, that's cool. +[616.00 --> 619.00] Because here, let's go back to that picture for a second. Look at this thing. +[619.00 --> 625.00] Right there, on, between two soft layers of contact lens. +[625.00 --> 631.00] There is a processor, there is a wireless transmitter, and presumably something in here is a power source. +[631.00 --> 635.00] Although none of the articles I could find were mentioning anything. +[635.00 --> 637.00] I have no idea. I couldn't find it either. +[637.00 --> 638.00] Could be heat. +[638.00 --> 642.00] My only idea that I could come up with was heat, because I couldn't, like, I don't see, there's nowhere for it to store power. +[642.00 --> 646.00] There's nowhere for it to, like, receive power, as far as I can tell. +[646.00 --> 649.00] Well, it could be like the porn industry. It could be powered by tears. +[649.00 --> 651.00] Wow. This week. +[651.00 --> 654.00] Yeah, it's, I'm not too, I'm kind of off to a bad start. +[654.00 --> 655.00] Jeez. +[655.00 --> 660.00] Um, no, but it does use, it does use your tears to monitor glucose levels. +[660.00 --> 668.00] I mean, this will be a fantastic device for folks that are not wanting to use invasive methods of determining their blood sugar levels. +[668.00 --> 671.00] And, yeah, I think it's just really, really cool. +[671.00 --> 672.00] Here, here, check this out. There we go. +[672.00 --> 674.00] Soft contact lens. +[674.00 --> 676.00] Sensor. Detects glucose in tears. +[676.00 --> 677.00] Chip and antenna. +[677.00 --> 680.00] So maybe the power source is something else entirely. Maybe it is heat. +[680.00 --> 687.00] Well, yeah, because there's the rings, so if it could somehow, if those rings could somehow feed heat as energy to the rest of the chip. +[687.00 --> 691.00] Those just look like, um, those just look like circuits that, like, I don't know. +[691.00 --> 694.00] Yeah, but I don't know why they go around the entire thing. +[694.00 --> 696.00] Yeah, I guess there's no real compelling reason for that. +[696.00 --> 701.00] Other than that they'd make you look like a super badass. It's like, people are gonna want diamonds. +[701.00 --> 703.00] Yeah, those must be visible, eh? +[703.00 --> 704.00] They'd, like, look awesome. +[704.00 --> 706.00] That would actually look pretty cool. +[706.00 --> 707.00] Ooh, that would look sweet. +[707.00 --> 708.00] Beep, beep. +[708.00 --> 709.00] Alright. +[709.00 --> 710.00] Um, so anyway. +[710.00 --> 711.00] That's all the Terminator Eye thing going on. +[711.00 --> 719.00] My main point about this is that I think wearable technology is, is, uh, I think people are missing the point a little bit. +[719.00 --> 723.00] The idea behind wearable technology, like, people look at smart watches and they go, +[723.00 --> 726.00] Oh, let's cram, like, the power of a phone into it. +[726.00 --> 729.00] And I think there's notable guys like the Neptune Pine. +[729.00 --> 735.00] I actually kick-started it fairly early on, and I'm, I'm gonna get my hands on it, and I'm gonna give an objective review. +[735.00 --> 736.00] Objective review to it. +[736.00 --> 737.00] Objective review. +[737.00 --> 738.00] I'm probably gonna have to- +[738.00 --> 739.00] He's gonna slaughter it. +[739.00 --> 747.00] I'm probably gonna have to destroy it, because I'm expecting battery life to be stupid, and I'm expecting wearing the thing to be equally stupid. +[747.00 --> 753.00] To me, the idea of wearables is that they should all work together within an ecosystem. +[753.00 --> 756.00] Like, the phone of the future, to me, is one that lives in your pocket. +[756.00 --> 759.00] I think we talked about this with John Rettinger when he was on the show. +[759.00 --> 760.00] Yeah. +[760.00 --> 765.00] But the phone lives in your pocket, and it's kind of the processor that goes behind everything, but the screen becomes not that important anymore. +[765.00 --> 769.00] You know, to me, a next generation Google Glass should just be a dummy device. +[769.00 --> 771.00] It shouldn't even have its own storage. +[771.00 --> 780.00] It should just be linked to the phone as a processor, and it should focus on what you need, which is the display, and the speaker, and- +[780.00 --> 781.00] That's about it. +[781.00 --> 782.00] That's about it. +[782.00 --> 783.00] That's about it. +[783.00 --> 784.00] Micro- No. +[784.00 --> 785.00] Micro- Microphone, maybe. +[785.00 --> 788.00] You can have other smart devices that are better microphones. +[788.00 --> 789.00] Yep. +[789.00 --> 798.00] Like, I don't see any reason why if you can power a contact lens with heat, for example, I mean, that- that girl from Vancouver Island, who had the heat-powered flashlight- +[798.00 --> 799.00] The torch. +[799.00 --> 803.00] I don't see a reason why you can't have a heat-powered microphone chip embedded in your lip. +[803.00 --> 807.00] Then, all of a sudden, we don't have to even think about microphone positioning. +[807.00 --> 816.00] Everything clipped into you or around you that's linked into your wearable ecosystem that you carry can just get a crystal clear signal from your- +[816.00 --> 818.00] from your- from your- from your mouth. +[818.00 --> 821.00] So, that, to me, is where wearables are headed. +[821.00 --> 825.00] Um, so things like the contact lens that has a very specific function. +[825.00 --> 826.00] It doesn't need a computer on it. +[826.00 --> 828.00] It's good enough already, and I think it's really cool. +[828.00 --> 830.00] They are looking at adding LED lights for indicators. +[830.00 --> 833.00] Um, so I guess- +[833.00 --> 835.00] I guess it's just feature creep at that point. +[835.00 --> 836.00] Just keep adding things. +[836.00 --> 839.00] It's- no, don't send a, you know, pop-up notification to the phone. +[839.00 --> 840.00] We need LED lights. +[840.00 --> 846.00] Yeah, the- the- the LED lights for indicators on the contact is like, okay. +[846.00 --> 850.00] I wonder how annoying that might be. +[850.00 --> 853.00] One step- well, how annoying would you want it to be if you were diabetic? +[853.00 --> 854.00] Oh. +[854.00 --> 858.00] And it's like, yeah, yo, dude, go, like, eat something. +[858.00 --> 859.00] Yeah, good point. +[859.00 --> 861.00] It's like, beep, beep, beep, beep. +[861.00 --> 862.00] I mean, that's fine. +[862.00 --> 863.00] I'm okay with that. +[863.00 --> 866.00] If you're, like, saving someone serious- serious damage, it kind of makes sense. +[866.00 --> 867.00] We're at 4.58. +[867.00 --> 871.00] Okay, so why don't we, uh, why don't we bring on our guest? +[871.00 --> 872.00] Did you get the guest lower third? +[872.00 --> 873.00] Is it- is it there? +[873.00 --> 874.00] Is it- oh my- seriously? +[874.00 --> 875.00] Is that his picture? +[875.00 --> 876.00] I didn't make it, man. +[876.00 --> 879.00] Um, alright, well let's- let's bring Kane in. +[879.00 --> 880.00] You have your- are those plugged in? +[880.00 --> 881.00] I don't know, man. +[881.00 --> 883.00] Do I look like I know what's going on over here? +[883.00 --> 884.00] It's right here, right here. +[884.00 --> 885.00] Oh yeah, you are plugged in. +[885.00 --> 886.00] It's right here. +[886.00 --> 887.00] Or something's plugged in. +[887.00 --> 888.00] Uh, oh yeah, I'm plugged into the other thing. +[888.00 --> 890.00] Where's the other, more different thing? +[890.00 --> 891.00] What? +[891.00 --> 892.00] I- I'm monitoring the show. +[892.00 --> 893.00] Oh, I can go here? +[893.00 --> 894.00] Yeah. +[894.00 --> 895.00] Well, I'm going here then! +[895.00 --> 901.00] Alright, sooo... Kane is right here. +[901.00 --> 902.00] User was moved to your channel. +[902.00 --> 904.00] Yo dawg, welcome to the show! +[906.00 --> 908.00] It's good to be here, how are you doing? +[908.00 --> 910.00] I'm pretty good, how are you? +[910.00 --> 917.00] Uh, it's been a fantastic day, and I now get to sit here, talk to you guys, and hopefully +[917.00 --> 924.00] my neighbors blasting their amazing music will not disrupt our show too much. +[924.00 --> 925.00] You know what? +[925.00 --> 926.00] I can't hear anything now. +[926.00 --> 931.00] Um, I would like to- I would like to sort of start with something, before I even let +[931.00 --> 932.00] you introduce yourself. +[932.00 --> 934.00] Um, Kane, tell me something. +[934.00 --> 935.00] This picture right here. +[935.00 --> 937.00] What is with the glasses? +[937.00 --> 939.00] You know, everybody asks me about that. +[939.00 --> 940.00] Everybody. +[940.00 --> 944.00] I've even got to the point where I've made a decree that basically says don't ask me +[944.00 --> 945.00] about the glasses. +[945.00 --> 946.00] I know! +[946.00 --> 948.00] And for the reason- and I know you, so it's okay. +[948.00 --> 952.00] Cause, you know, getting this on this- this wonderful little, uh, show here, and, uh, +[952.00 --> 954.00] I know you, so it's okay to ask that. +[954.00 --> 959.00] My biggest problem actually, and I'm gonna answer your question in a long-winded way, +[959.00 --> 963.00] is that people who I have never met, who have never shown up on my stream, or never shown +[963.00 --> 967.00] up on our channel, the first thing out of the gate is like, hey dude, what's with the +[967.00 --> 968.00] glasses? +[968.00 --> 972.00] Um, and I think that's to be the most offensively rude thing you could say to me. +[972.00 --> 976.00] Mainly because it's something that I basically- I'm doing it, there's a reason for it. +[976.00 --> 978.00] Um, I have my reason. +[978.00 --> 981.00] You may not know what it is, and many people may not know what it is. +[981.00 --> 985.00] But, you don't invite someone into your home, or, you know, you don't walk into a store, +[985.00 --> 989.00] and the first thing you do is like, hey dude, really, what's with that huge goiter on your +[989.00 --> 990.00] face? +[990.00 --> 991.00] The braces! +[991.00 --> 992.00] You know? +[992.00 --> 993.00] Exactly. +[993.00 --> 996.00] You know, you don't pick something about somebody, and then just immediately start questioning +[996.00 --> 998.00] it, because you have no idea. +[998.00 --> 1005.00] And I use a, I think it was one of the Emmys, or one of the Oscar shows, and I think it was +[1005.00 --> 1014.00] the actor from Dexter, was wearing a bandana, and whoever was on E or whatever, with the microphone, +[1014.00 --> 1018.00] with red carpet, like, made a crack about it, and then asked him about it. +[1018.00 --> 1020.00] He was like, hey man, what's with this new do? +[1020.00 --> 1023.00] I mean, and she like, made a joke, and he just turns around and goes, I have cancer. +[1023.00 --> 1024.00] Wow. +[1024.00 --> 1027.00] And it was like, oh, let's just, you know, immediately take the piss out of that. +[1027.00 --> 1028.00] And now the commercial! +[1028.00 --> 1029.00] Right? +[1029.00 --> 1030.00] And, yeah. +[1030.00 --> 1031.00] No, exactly. +[1031.00 --> 1035.00] So, it's, that's kind of where I kind of get a little bit of a tip about it, which, I +[1035.00 --> 1037.00] wanted to just get that out there. +[1037.00 --> 1043.00] But, as with the glasses, um, to be perfectly blunt, my eyes are severely augmented. +[1043.00 --> 1049.00] I've had multiple, uh, cybernetic surgeries and such, and it's, uh, it's just better for +[1049.00 --> 1052.00] everybody not to see what goes on behind the glasses. +[1052.00 --> 1053.00] Cybernetic surgeries? +[1053.00 --> 1055.00] That's cool, I think. +[1055.00 --> 1060.00] I mean, sorry, I don't know much about it, so forgive my ignorance, but it sounds awesome. +[1060.00 --> 1061.00] I know. +[1061.00 --> 1062.00] Well, I'm a time traveler. +[1062.00 --> 1063.00] It's okay. +[1063.00 --> 1064.00] That is really cool. +[1064.00 --> 1066.00] I had no idea. +[1066.00 --> 1067.00] Me neither. +[1067.00 --> 1070.00] I've met him so many times, you'd think he'd be spending all the, oh, but I guess if +[1070.00 --> 1073.00] he's a time traveler, he can spend all of his time everywhere. +[1073.00 --> 1074.00] We would never know. +[1074.00 --> 1075.00] No. +[1075.00 --> 1076.00] No. +[1076.00 --> 1079.00] I've actually just started watching Doctor Who. +[1079.00 --> 1081.00] I'm on, like, season two. +[1081.00 --> 1084.00] It's kind of stupid. +[1084.00 --> 1089.00] I've actually, I've never, ever watched an episode of Doctor Who. +[1089.00 --> 1091.00] It's because he is the Doctor. +[1091.00 --> 1093.00] So why would you watch the show? +[1093.00 --> 1094.00] Uh oh. +[1094.00 --> 1097.00] Have we stumbled onto a secret here? +[1097.00 --> 1104.00] Well, I, uh, I do hang out in a police box all the time. +[1104.00 --> 1108.00] Oh, okay, I'm pretty sure he's actually the Doctor. +[1108.00 --> 1110.00] So I've actually never seen any episode of Doctor Who. +[1110.00 --> 1112.00] Yeah, it's, it's kind of goofy. +[1112.00 --> 1113.00] Like, it's British TV. +[1113.00 --> 1116.00] So it's like, it's, you just. +[1116.00 --> 1119.00] But, but I love The Office, and The Office is based off of British TV. +[1119.00 --> 1125.00] It's based off of British TV, but they like, you know, didn't make it quite British TV. +[1125.00 --> 1129.00] Because that's, that's too scary for mortals in some ways. +[1129.00 --> 1131.00] Have you seen the British version of The Office? +[1131.00 --> 1132.00] No, I haven't. +[1132.00 --> 1134.00] I'm buying time because I have no idea what the heck you're doing. +[1134.00 --> 1135.00] Hmm? +[1135.00 --> 1137.00] Oh, I'm just, I'm firing up our, our CES playlist. +[1137.00 --> 1140.00] Because I was going to go through and see some of the things that I thought were, uh, +[1140.00 --> 1141.00] that I thought were probably the coolest. +[1141.00 --> 1144.00] So why don't we kick into our real topic. +[1144.00 --> 1148.00] Cain, what was your, maybe your top couple show highlights? +[1148.00 --> 1151.00] You and Logan spent a fair bit of time on the floor. +[1151.00 --> 1152.00] And how was that? +[1152.00 --> 1157.00] Um, we spent a lot of time running around the North and the Central Hall. +[1157.00 --> 1159.00] We actually spent the least amount of time in the South Hall, +[1159.00 --> 1163.00] which is where all the stuff that we really wanted to get to, uh, was, was at. +[1163.00 --> 1165.00] Cause we're like, let's just work our way through it. +[1165.00 --> 1166.00] And, uh, North to South. +[1166.00 --> 1169.00] And, uh, in the North, exactly. +[1169.00 --> 1175.00] And, and the North Hall was a lot of cars, car audio and stuff that was just like, meh. +[1175.00 --> 1176.00] Yeah. +[1176.00 --> 1177.00] It's stuff. +[1177.00 --> 1180.00] Um, there was a really cool, uh, there's a solar car. +[1180.00 --> 1183.00] And I think we, it was the I-Road by Toyota, which I thought was kind of fascinating, +[1183.00 --> 1184.00] but it's, that was kind of nifty. +[1184.00 --> 1187.00] And we get into the Central Hall, we get into some camera stuff. +[1187.00 --> 1196.00] And there was a Sony camcorder that had a gyroscope, um, image stabilizer that was really impressive. +[1196.00 --> 1200.00] And it goes above and beyond any of the other image stabilization that I've ever seen. +[1200.00 --> 1202.00] Uh, which was, was pretty awesome. +[1202.00 --> 1210.00] Uh, but then once we got to the South Hall, uh, I was really kind of fascinated with, uh, Belkin bringing back the Linksys WRT model router. +[1210.00 --> 1211.00] Yes. +[1211.00 --> 1213.00] That's, that's right up my alley. +[1213.00 --> 1220.00] Cause I've been waiting for, you know, a piece of hardware that was designed for, uh, an open source firmware for a long time. +[1220.00 --> 1225.00] And this, like the, the, the 54 GL, uh, that, that's been out for forever. +[1225.00 --> 1226.00] Forever. +[1226.00 --> 1231.00] Uh, this one is, yeah, this one's gonna, it was designed, uh, with the OpenWRT team in mind. +[1231.00 --> 1236.00] And those guys actually helped out in designing what was going to happen with it and programming the interface. +[1236.00 --> 1239.00] And it's going to be, it's gonna be pretty nifty right out of the gate. +[1239.00 --> 1242.00] You know what excites me most about that router? +[1242.00 --> 1247.00] Is the fact that Linksys is genuinely excited about the router. +[1247.00 --> 1248.00] Yeah. +[1248.00 --> 1258.00] When I talk to folks from Linksys about EA4200, Cloud Connect and like all that kind of stuff, none of them really seemed impassioned by it. +[1258.00 --> 1260.00] They weren't excited about it. +[1260.00 --> 1264.00] I mean, the, the, the folks that I talked to at the booth were like, they were giddy. +[1264.00 --> 1267.00] They were like, we got the old team back together. +[1267.00 --> 1269.00] You know, some of them have moved on, bless their hearts. +[1269.00 --> 1271.00] But like, we got the team back together. +[1271.00 --> 1279.00] We got the go ahead from Belkin, where they basically, okay, in sort of, you know, I'm not gonna put words in anyone's mouth, but paraphrasing. +[1279.00 --> 1281.00] They basically said, do the, whatever the hell you want. +[1281.00 --> 1282.00] Just fix it. +[1282.00 --> 1283.00] You know? +[1283.00 --> 1286.00] I think, I think now people are kind of happy because of the acquisition. +[1286.00 --> 1292.00] Where at first, I think a lot of people were a little bit apprehensive and weren't so sure, but now it's like, yeah. +[1292.00 --> 1293.00] It's like, yeah. +[1293.00 --> 1294.00] I agree. +[1294.00 --> 1295.00] I agree with him there. +[1295.00 --> 1296.00] Cause that was, that was my statement. +[1296.00 --> 1300.00] You know, I was like, eh, you know, Belkin, I was never, I've never been a big fan of Belkin's hardware. +[1300.00 --> 1303.00] You know, it's, it's been on my lower tier. +[1303.00 --> 1309.00] And then once, once, when Cisco got ahold of Linksys, it was like, it was the first generation Cisco Linksys was okay. +[1309.00 --> 1312.00] And then everything just kind of went, eh. +[1312.00 --> 1317.00] And I'm like, I'm just gonna go and get an enterprise grades router for my, my house now. +[1317.00 --> 1319.00] Cause that's, you know, you can get them on eBay for relatively dirt cheap. +[1319.00 --> 1323.00] So I got really excited about the Cisco acquisition back when that happened. +[1323.00 --> 1328.00] Cause I went, wow, they're going to inject their expertise into Linksys. +[1328.00 --> 1341.00] But instead it looks like the only thing they really injected into Linksys was enterprise grade profit margin expectations and trying to build consumer grade hardware around those expectations that just weren't realistic at all. +[1341.00 --> 1345.00] And that's why they ended up dumping the business unit to Belkin in the end. +[1345.00 --> 1352.00] Cause they were like, okay, well let's figure out how to, you know, charge $200 for hardware. +[1352.00 --> 1353.00] That's really unexceptional. +[1353.00 --> 1364.00] When you've got competitors like Asus knocking down their door, breathing down their necks by building sort of, you know, hardware that is designed to be run with open software and is powerful. +[1364.00 --> 1366.00] I mean, that's what Asus is so good at. +[1366.00 --> 1370.00] Let's just put some really powerful hardware in there and the rest will kind of follow. +[1370.00 --> 1371.00] And that wasn't going to work. +[1371.00 --> 1374.00] So I'm really excited to see Belkin's approach here. +[1374.00 --> 1378.00] Yeah, no, that's kind of like I said, I'm in the same boat you're in with that one. +[1378.00 --> 1379.00] Is it when Linksys was acquired by Cisco? +[1379.00 --> 1381.00] I was like, yes, excellent. +[1381.00 --> 1383.00] You can look back at our old DDWRT video. +[1383.00 --> 1384.00] I was talking about like, it's owned by Cisco. +[1384.00 --> 1385.00] It's going to be great. +[1385.00 --> 1391.00] And then it was like, you know, six months later, I was like, eh, okay. +[1391.00 --> 1397.00] And I was suggesting people not get, yeah, not get the Cisco stuff. +[1397.00 --> 1400.00] At least not the lower end, not the lower end equipment. +[1400.00 --> 1405.00] You know, and then, you know, later on we may, we talk about building your own router and, you know, getting PFSense. +[1405.00 --> 1409.00] But then you're actually taking an old computer and those things are power hungry. +[1409.00 --> 1411.00] They're big pieces of equipment. +[1411.00 --> 1416.00] They work amazing, but they are, you know, they are big beefy pieces of equipment that eat a lot of power. +[1416.00 --> 1420.00] But the interface is not that user friendly. +[1420.00 --> 1431.00] I mean, that's something that DDWRT has done so well is they've taken this functionality and this backbone and then they've skinned it in such a way that real people can actually use it. +[1431.00 --> 1432.00] Oh, absolutely. +[1432.00 --> 1444.00] And, you know, and that was one of the things that I, I, why I recommend DDWRT for anybody who is getting any router that I'm like, go find a router that you can put DDWRT on it because it enhances your functionality. +[1444.00 --> 1450.00] You have a little more fine tuned control over your wireless, over, you know, your routing functions, all of that stuff is there. +[1450.00 --> 1459.00] And if you really want to get, you delve into the, the, the background, the backbone of the, the operating system that is that firmware, you, you have that option. +[1459.00 --> 1464.00] You can get into SSH, you can get into the command line and go really, go really crazy with it. +[1464.00 --> 1471.00] So what was your next highlight once you, once you got past the supremely exciting router that I hope isn't boring any of the viewers on the stream? +[1471.00 --> 1476.00] Because guys, this is actually genuinely exciting other than the 299 price tag, but. +[1476.00 --> 1477.00] Yeah. +[1477.00 --> 1483.00] I mean, now that was, because I mean, the Asus has got, somebody asked me the other day, they said, what's, why is this different from the Asus router? +[1483.00 --> 1487.00] Cause there's an Asus router out there that's just very similar in specs. +[1487.00 --> 1488.00] Yes. +[1488.00 --> 1490.00] And I'm like, it's built with open WRT guys. +[1490.00 --> 1495.00] So it's, it's, it's that, you know, let's hack your router kind of mentality. +[1495.00 --> 1501.00] So it's, it's genuinely exciting that they're giving us this piece of equipment that we can play around and manipulate. +[1501.00 --> 1507.00] And they're saying, knock yourselves out, which, which is what the WRT was really kind of famous for anyway. +[1507.00 --> 1511.00] Uh, the next highlight I think on my list is actually nothing to do with the, the show itself. +[1511.00 --> 1512.00] Really? +[1512.00 --> 1516.00] It was, uh, it was the first night that we were there, uh, or that I was there. +[1516.00 --> 1520.00] Uh, I showed up, there was a, there was a party with like, I think it was Intel and MSI. +[1520.00 --> 1526.00] And then we bumped into you and the, the other guys from, uh, uh, Paul and Kyle and, you know, Logan and everybody. +[1526.00 --> 1535.00] And we all just sat down, uh, at that breakfast and we just had that big chit chat hangout session, which was, it was, that was the highlight of my entire weekend. +[1535.00 --> 1537.00] That was actually super fun. +[1537.00 --> 1545.00] I think one of the things that I enjoyed more than anything else at the show this year was, um, I actually got to meet quite a few YouTubers for the first time. +[1545.00 --> 1547.00] Like Cain, you and I have met before. +[1547.00 --> 1548.00] Logan and I have met before. +[1548.00 --> 1550.00] Paul and I have met before. +[1550.00 --> 1551.00] Kyle and I have met before. +[1551.00 --> 1559.00] But I ran into Marcus Brownlee and we ended up sitting in the food court at one of the hotels, talking for like five hours. +[1559.00 --> 1560.00] Meet him and Austin. +[1560.00 --> 1565.00] And then I, uh, ran into Lou from Unbox Therapy again, had met him before. +[1565.00 --> 1567.00] But I got to meet Soldier Knows Best. +[1567.00 --> 1569.00] I got to meet Lamar Wilson. +[1569.00 --> 1573.00] Um, I mean, I ran into pretty much everyone, which is, I don't know. +[1573.00 --> 1582.00] Yeah, I'm a YouTuber, but still you got to kind of geek out over these like super huge dudes and just kind of like chilling with them. +[1582.00 --> 1583.00] So I thought that was really cool. +[1583.00 --> 1590.00] Brandon and I met, uh, Philip DeFranco and my mom especially has been watching him for like since YouTube was created. +[1590.00 --> 1593.00] So I got to make her pretty jelly when I got home. +[1593.00 --> 1595.00] That's, that's awesome. +[1595.00 --> 1599.00] I was, I was wondering if he was going to be there, uh, at the show, but I was looking for him and I was close. +[1599.00 --> 1604.00] It was somebody else I was looking for that I was really hoping to bump into or just happened to randomly pass and go, hey, wait a minute. +[1604.00 --> 1607.00] I know that guy, but, uh, neither one of those happened. +[1607.00 --> 1613.00] Uh, I think we, um, that night that you were hanging out with them, uh, with the, at the hotel. +[1613.00 --> 1614.00] Yeah, you guys bailed on me. +[1614.00 --> 1629.00] We, we, uh, ended up over at, um, hanging out in Fractal's suite, uh, playing pool and, uh, Dimitri from Hardwood Canucks was there and some guys, uh, some other guys from, um, I think it was, uh, Mass Drop. +[1629.00 --> 1632.00] They showed up and we were hanging out with them, which was a crazy conversation. +[1632.00 --> 1639.00] And then it was just, uh, the guys from Fractal, Kyle was there from, uh, from New England and, you know, a bunch of these other cats just came in and out and we were like, cool. +[1639.00 --> 1647.00] And then we were looking to bump into you, but you guys were over at the other hotel and it was just like, uh, we, we were, we were having a good time. +[1647.00 --> 1653.00] So we, uh, it got late and we're like, let's just do what we need to do. +[1653.00 --> 1657.00] And I, I really, I actually, I really regret not, uh, not coming over and hanging out with you guys. +[1657.00 --> 1659.00] Cause that was something that both Logan and I talked extensively about. +[1659.00 --> 1662.00] And then we just kind of got wrapped up in the little bit of a party that we were at. +[1662.00 --> 1664.00] It always happens at CES. +[1664.00 --> 1666.00] You intend to go 20 places. +[1666.00 --> 1671.00] You make it to eight of them and you send out 12 apologies and that's all you can do. +[1671.00 --> 1672.00] Absolutely. +[1672.00 --> 1673.00] Yeah. +[1673.00 --> 1677.00] Like I said, even, even with Logan and I, I mean, we were there for two days, but we spent most of Thursday. +[1677.00 --> 1682.00] Oh, I was there for two days, but we spent most of Thursday and Friday in the North and Central Hall. +[1682.00 --> 1687.00] And we tried to get to the South Hall, but we got there like, as they were shutting down, uh, which was kind of nifty. +[1687.00 --> 1695.00] Cause we bumped into some random, you know, these, these random vendors and we just stopped and like, Hey, I know you guys are like 30 seconds from like pulling the plug and all this, but can we have a break? +[1695.00 --> 1696.00] Five second interview. +[1696.00 --> 1698.00] And they were like, no problem. +[1698.00 --> 1700.00] Uh, which was, which was pretty crazy. +[1700.00 --> 1701.00] And they were really, really good to us. +[1701.00 --> 1703.00] So, uh, thanks to everybody that was there. +[1703.00 --> 1704.00] It was, it was a good time. +[1704.00 --> 1707.00] Uh, one, you know, what's funny is I had a similar story. +[1707.00 --> 1713.00] One of my last minute, uh, actually one of my show highlights was equally last minute in my video. +[1713.00 --> 1721.00] They're behind me tearing down the booth while I like do, uh, my, my spiel on what I think is one of the coolest things ever. +[1721.00 --> 1724.00] Now, this kind of technology has existed for quite some time. +[1724.00 --> 1732.00] So using proximity and Bluetooth in order to do things like let you know if you leave your keys behind or, um, allow you to find something. +[1732.00 --> 1745.00] But what I thought was really cool about stick and find stick and find is that they have models that are as small as like your typical, um, what would you, what, what is that battery type called? +[1745.00 --> 1747.00] Like those super flat, super thin ones. +[1747.00 --> 1749.00] Everyone, I don't know the exact name, but everyone just calls them watch batteries. +[1749.00 --> 1750.00] Yeah. +[1750.00 --> 1758.00] So basically like the size of one of those sort of larger, but still super skinny watch batteries that has a battery that lasts for a year. +[1758.00 --> 1769.00] So you could conceivably replace your battery once a year on your cat's collar and just use any Bluetooth enabled smartphone to play the hot and cold game to find your cat. +[1769.00 --> 1781.00] So as someone who had their cat missing for five weeks and would have given anything to have something that they could put on the seat or like stick to the dash and drive around the neighborhood and wait for it to go beep, beep, beep. +[1781.00 --> 1784.00] And then I can start tracking him down from there would have been amazing. +[1784.00 --> 1789.00] It's got a range of something like a hundred feet to, I think they have one that goes up to 200 feet. +[1789.00 --> 1790.00] Well, that one's a little bit bigger. +[1790.00 --> 1796.00] And then they have one that works over a span of, I think it's like a mile or something like that, or half a mile. +[1796.00 --> 1799.00] And it's got a rechargeable battery. +[1799.00 --> 1803.00] It's a bit bulkier, but it's like the ultimate never lose your car, your cat or your child again. +[1803.00 --> 1805.00] And that was, that was really cool for me. +[1805.00 --> 1806.00] They're called button cell batteries. +[1806.00 --> 1807.00] Thank you. +[1807.00 --> 1809.00] Button cell, yeah, button cell batteries. +[1809.00 --> 1816.00] Yeah, no, no, I actually, you talk about this and my mind goes to like crazy, the dark side of the universe. +[1816.00 --> 1819.00] And I always, I always think of how can these things be used for evil? +[1819.00 --> 1825.00] Not so much that I could use them that way, but to prepare myself in the event that somebody else may want to, or maybe we can all be aware of it. +[1825.00 --> 1827.00] Or maybe we can all be aware of these kinds of things. +[1827.00 --> 1829.00] So you get something that, you know, you're talking about losing your cat. +[1829.00 --> 1834.00] And that right there is definitely something I think this could be used for. +[1834.00 --> 1837.00] And, you know, stick on the car or whatnot, your keys, that kind of jazz. +[1837.00 --> 1840.00] But then there's also that random fear that I have. +[1840.00 --> 1842.00] Somebody's going to like tag your car. +[1842.00 --> 1843.00] Mm-hmm. +[1843.00 --> 1852.00] Or someone's going to maybe tag your briefcase or some other kind of device or something that's going to be on the move so they could track you down. +[1852.00 --> 1854.00] They could stalk you, if you will. +[1854.00 --> 1857.00] And that kind of creeps me out a little bit. +[1857.00 --> 1861.00] Because I know, like, if I'm thinking this, there are 30 other people who were already prepping to do this. +[1861.00 --> 1864.00] Absolutely. And think about this, too. +[1864.00 --> 1872.00] The one that I got, which is the one-year battery that's the size of a button cell that lasts for a year, is like 50 bucks for two. +[1872.00 --> 1881.00] So you could conceivably buy, like, 20 of them for 500 bucks and track everything. +[1881.00 --> 1888.00] Or, like, if in the case of a car, put 10 of them on a car and then if the person finds two or three. +[1888.00 --> 1889.00] Then whatever. +[1889.00 --> 1890.00] Not so good. +[1890.00 --> 1894.00] But then you just have to kind of, like, this kind of stuff comes up with all these new technologies that are coming out. +[1894.00 --> 1895.00] Like Google Glass. +[1895.00 --> 1900.00] There's that huge evil side of it that everyone's just like, oh, God, please don't. +[1900.00 --> 1903.00] And I think just society as a whole is going to have to change. +[1903.00 --> 1906.00] Like, maybe there's going to be something that will come out that can sense these things really easily. +[1906.00 --> 1907.00] Yeah. +[1907.00 --> 1912.00] So you can bring it into your car and maybe your smartphone will eventually be able to tell you if these things are on your car. +[1912.00 --> 1913.00] Right. +[1913.00 --> 1915.00] And then you'd be like, okay, what the hell. +[1915.00 --> 1916.00] Hopefully. +[1916.00 --> 1920.00] And that's right there exactly why I bring these kinds of things up. +[1920.00 --> 1922.00] It's the, you know, intrusion countermeasures. +[1922.00 --> 1924.00] And I'm very security-minded. +[1924.00 --> 1927.00] I've spent a lot of time being in, you know, in network security and that kind of jazz. +[1927.00 --> 1933.00] So it's, you start thinking about how would I be able to get into this kind of device? +[1933.00 --> 1935.00] Or how would I be able to do this? +[1935.00 --> 1937.00] And then you start finding ways of countermeasures. +[1937.00 --> 1938.00] So, no, that's a really great point. +[1938.00 --> 1944.00] Let's, you know, let's build the app that can randomly scan the Bluetooth channeling and say, oh, look, this thing is actually here. +[1944.00 --> 1945.00] What is that? +[1945.00 --> 1946.00] Why is that in my car? +[1946.00 --> 1950.00] Or, oh, my God, there's eight of these things attached and it's like, it can't pair to it. +[1950.00 --> 1951.00] What is this thing? +[1951.00 --> 1955.00] Well, more importantly, you know, like, this one's been here for a long time. +[1955.00 --> 1956.00] Are you sure this is okay? +[1956.00 --> 1957.00] Yeah. +[1957.00 --> 1958.00] Yeah. +[1958.00 --> 1959.00] That kind of thing. +[1959.00 --> 1960.00] Yeah, no, absolutely. +[1960.00 --> 1964.00] Speaking of being security minded, you've talked a little bit about what you do. +[1964.00 --> 1969.00] Do you, I don't think I ever got you to give your overall background for the audience. +[1969.00 --> 1971.00] Tell us about yourself. +[1971.00 --> 1972.00] Wow. +[1972.00 --> 1975.00] That, that's a very open-ended quick. +[1975.00 --> 1982.00] No, I've got a, I've got a very, very wide background of, of a myriad of different things. +[1982.00 --> 1984.00] Um, you know, just go back to the beginning. +[1984.00 --> 1993.00] I started in, in like, I worked at a retail at a photography store and I went from that into radio, which is kind of an odd transition. +[1993.00 --> 1994.00] It makes perfect sense. +[1994.00 --> 1995.00] And I worked in radio for three, I know, right? +[1995.00 --> 2004.00] Uh, I worked in, uh, I worked in radio for three years and in the midst of all of that, I worked at a television station doing video and audio production, uh, for about a year and a half. +[2004.00 --> 2019.00] And then from that, I went back to, uh, college and got a two year degree in computer networking, which was really my way of just saying, I need a, some kind of paperwork that proves that I know all the stuff that I already do. +[2019.00 --> 2020.00] Right. +[2020.00 --> 2032.00] So I transitioned into that and then I, I migrated into, uh, networks, uh, telephones, telephone systems and telephone switches, uh, mostly like asterisk and open source, uh, PBXs. +[2032.00 --> 2035.00] A lot of, a lot of networking, low voltage infrastructure. +[2035.00 --> 2045.00] So I, I spent a year and a half working for a cabling company in South Florida and I ran all of the fiber optic cat six cat five E for Florida power and light. +[2045.00 --> 2052.00] Um, I worked at what turned into, it was supposed to be an email marketing company, which was really a, a flood. +[2052.00 --> 2053.00] Exactly. +[2053.00 --> 2055.00] It's a fluffy way of saying that we're a spam company. +[2055.00 --> 2058.00] And when I got the job there, I didn't really have any idea what they were doing. +[2058.00 --> 2063.00] It was just, they had the right price point and the company that I worked for had just went bankrupt. +[2063.00 --> 2066.00] So I transitioned from the bankrupt company to a job that I'm like, Oh goody. +[2066.00 --> 2071.00] It, they needed somebody who knew phones and networks and, you know, Linux and all that kind of jazz. +[2071.00 --> 2072.00] I'm like, excellent. +[2072.00 --> 2073.00] Yes. +[2073.00 --> 2078.00] I'm like, Oh, Oh, Oh, this is what you're doing. +[2078.00 --> 2079.00] And then it was like, okay. +[2079.00 --> 2089.00] So I started researching into things like this, the canned spam act of, I think it's 2003 and looking at the legal side of this and like, is what we're doing legal? +[2089.00 --> 2092.00] Is there this gray area that we're operating in? +[2092.00 --> 2102.00] And it was right up to the point where I, I, one of our sales guys had this, uh, national contract with a, uh, a, a food retail, uh, as they call them retailers. +[2102.00 --> 2104.00] It's like a fast food joint. +[2104.00 --> 2105.00] Yeah. +[2105.00 --> 2112.00] That they were going to send out like coupons across the, across the nation for this, you know, buy one, get one free sandwich kind of thing. +[2112.00 --> 2113.00] Yeah. +[2113.00 --> 2117.00] And the, got all the way to the point where they're ready to sign on this multimillion dollar deal. +[2117.00 --> 2122.00] And they asked the question of, can you guys prove that you guys are double opt in and that kind of jazz. +[2122.00 --> 2124.00] And it was, uh, they couldn't. +[2124.00 --> 2133.00] Um, so they just kind of started ignoring the conversation and I'm like, Oh, well, so we are doing something a little shady. +[2133.00 --> 2135.00] At which point I was like, I'm outta here. +[2135.00 --> 2137.00] And I, I literally quit that job. +[2137.00 --> 2140.00] And that's when Logan and I like trucked across the country. +[2140.00 --> 2147.00] So, um, that leads us up to text syndicate, but I've actually gotten this question a few times. +[2147.00 --> 2150.00] What is your role at text syndicate? +[2150.00 --> 2162.00] Um, when, when we, when Logan and I, uh, started this, uh, he, and I had this long conversation about how to present, uh, a lot of this. +[2162.00 --> 2167.00] In material, um, things that we were doing, um, places to do it. +[2167.00 --> 2171.00] What kind of, you know, environment that we have. +[2171.00 --> 2183.00] And I started with him with a background in radio and broadcasting and a background in television and broadcasting, my background in network and systems and, uh, just in general, a computer nerd. +[2183.00 --> 2188.00] So I am very similar in to, to him in the presentation. +[2188.00 --> 2189.00] He does this full time. +[2189.00 --> 2191.00] I'm, you know, very part time. +[2191.00 --> 2196.00] I've got a, you know, a day job where I sit in my crazy office and fix phones and networks all day. +[2196.00 --> 2199.00] Um, but that's primarily right. +[2199.00 --> 2207.00] My, my, my main role with, uh, with text syndicate, um, is I am, I am effectively talent. +[2207.00 --> 2209.00] I am, I am, you know, I am cane. +[2209.00 --> 2210.00] This is what I do. +[2210.00 --> 2211.00] I have this background. +[2211.00 --> 2217.00] I bring to the table a very different aspect of, of, you know, nerdism, if you will. +[2217.00 --> 2220.00] And, and our, my networking background and my system background. +[2220.00 --> 2226.00] And I bring an enterprise grade, uh, perspective to the table where Logan is like the, you know, the entertainer. +[2226.00 --> 2229.00] And he is the, the nerd at heart. +[2229.00 --> 2230.00] Yes. +[2230.00 --> 2231.00] And he knows all of this cool stuff. +[2231.00 --> 2233.00] And he's from a consumer level. +[2233.00 --> 2235.00] He comes from a, a very consumer level. +[2235.00 --> 2237.00] A very, well, I didn't even say consumer. +[2237.00 --> 2238.00] More like a prosumer. +[2238.00 --> 2240.00] He's got a very strong opinion. +[2240.00 --> 2244.00] And because of his background and where he comes from, uh, he's got access to all of that. +[2244.00 --> 2247.00] You know, all of the stuff that we got, all the stuff that we do. +[2247.00 --> 2250.00] Um, where Wendell, he comes from more of a programming background. +[2250.00 --> 2252.00] So he has a, a programming background. +[2252.00 --> 2255.00] He's also very well versed in a lot of different topics. +[2255.00 --> 2259.00] I just, I come from a different aspect and a different angle of the exact same technology that we're all using. +[2259.00 --> 2262.00] So like I said, I, I come from security background. +[2262.00 --> 2268.00] So when you guys are talking about, again, the cat and, you know, tracking your cat when it gets lost for four weeks, +[2268.00 --> 2280.00] which is very devastating and a very consumer driven concept, I look at it from a security standpoint and I'm like, okay, what if we find your cat and we tag your cat and then we track your cat back to your house? +[2280.00 --> 2281.00] Cause we don't know where you live for whatever reason. +[2281.00 --> 2283.00] We found your cat, that kind of thing. +[2283.00 --> 2288.00] I mean, it's, it's the, I look at, I look at the world from a very, again, very security minded kind of perspective. +[2288.00 --> 2294.00] So, uh, when we started this, we started with like, you know, the DDWRT demonstration. +[2294.00 --> 2295.00] That was something that I know how to do. +[2295.00 --> 2306.00] I'm like the, the crazy networking and, and software hacker type that I, I know how to manipulate and modify and build this crazy stuff. +[2306.00 --> 2311.00] Um, so that's kind of where I come from and that's, that's why I'm, I'm with this. +[2311.00 --> 2317.00] And then when we started the website and the website started getting bigger, I started interacting with the, uh, our members a lot more. +[2317.00 --> 2324.00] So I started interacting with them a lot more than he was mainly because it was just what I was doing and where I was spending my time. +[2324.00 --> 2328.00] Uh, where he, he and I were making videos. +[2328.00 --> 2332.00] I would then spend, he would, he would be like researching what the next video was going to be. +[2332.00 --> 2337.00] I would be talking to the members about the current videos and, and other things that were going on. +[2337.00 --> 2340.00] And I just keep up kind of a, a public relations, so to speak. +[2340.00 --> 2341.00] Well, community management. +[2341.00 --> 2342.00] Yeah. +[2342.00 --> 2343.00] Yeah. +[2343.00 --> 2345.00] Um, except I don't specifically manage the community. +[2345.00 --> 2355.00] I just show up with like this iron fist and be like, I mean, when we first started it, it was, it was kind of funny because we, we would have topics that would be, we had moderators on the, on the website. +[2355.00 --> 2359.00] They would, you know, monitor, they would monitor and moderate your topics. +[2359.00 --> 2361.00] The topics would get a little out of hand. +[2361.00 --> 2367.00] I would step in, I would lay down factual law and then everybody would be like, Oh, and then we just kind of end the conversation, which always annoyed me. +[2367.00 --> 2373.00] Cause I'm like looking for some, some intelligent discourse and I would direct it back to an, an intelligent discourse. +[2373.00 --> 2376.00] And then everybody would be like, Oh, Kane has spoken. +[2376.00 --> 2379.00] I'm like, Oh, you're not going to challenge me. +[2379.00 --> 2382.00] I mean, come on, I'm, I'm, I'm for the conversation, but no, it would never happen. +[2382.00 --> 2383.00] It was kind of annoying. +[2383.00 --> 2386.00] It's fun, but maybe, but that's what I do. +[2386.00 --> 2388.00] I'm, I, I don't know. +[2388.00 --> 2392.00] I just, I just figured that we're part of the, part of the tech syndicate family, so to speak. +[2392.00 --> 2394.00] The tech syndicate family. +[2394.00 --> 2396.00] Linus media group doesn't have a family so much. +[2396.00 --> 2397.00] Are we friends? +[2397.00 --> 2398.00] No. +[2398.00 --> 2399.00] No. +[2399.00 --> 2400.00] Our company name is stupid. +[2400.00 --> 2401.00] Our company name is stupid. +[2401.00 --> 2402.00] No one will understand this. +[2402.00 --> 2403.00] Okay. +[2403.00 --> 2410.00] So show highlights wise, was there anything else for you that really stood out that you +[2410.00 --> 2411.00] saw that got you really excited? +[2411.00 --> 2413.00] I mean, I know you love the pebble. +[2413.00 --> 2415.00] Did you have a chance to check out the Qualcomm talk? +[2415.00 --> 2417.00] I did not actually. +[2417.00 --> 2422.00] Um, I bumped into like eight people who had the gear, the galaxy gear, and I had a nice +[2422.00 --> 2423.00] conversations about that. +[2423.00 --> 2428.00] And in my, the end of my conversations were usually like, uh huh, you, I don't want to +[2428.00 --> 2429.00] talk to you anymore. +[2429.00 --> 2432.00] Not because I didn't particularly like what they had to say, but it was how they were. +[2432.00 --> 2435.00] They were presenting their, their, you know, device. +[2435.00 --> 2438.00] And it was like, you know, uh, nevermind. +[2438.00 --> 2440.00] But it was, the gear was very cool. +[2440.00 --> 2441.00] I'm, I'm actually kind of excited about it. +[2441.00 --> 2443.00] I just don't want to spend the 500 bucks on it. +[2443.00 --> 2444.00] Yeah. +[2444.00 --> 2450.00] The gear, the gear, the thing for me is, is expensive and battery life is the future to +[2450.00 --> 2451.00] me. +[2451.00 --> 2456.00] I mean, that's, that's the only reason that I care about pebble at all is the fact that I +[2456.00 --> 2459.00] can get about four days out of it before I have to recharge. +[2459.00 --> 2465.00] And, uh, the talk from Qualcomm is actually similar in that, in, in that it's, is able to, +[2465.00 --> 2467.00] they're quoting seven days in much the same way pebble does. +[2467.00 --> 2472.00] But I suspect I won't get seven days out of it just because I'm a bit of a heavy user notification +[2472.00 --> 2473.00] wise. +[2473.00 --> 2478.00] But the fact that it has a color display, the fact that it has a touch screen and, um, +[2478.00 --> 2480.00] other touch points on the watch strap itself. +[2480.00 --> 2488.00] And then the fact that it is, um, just super easy to read and the, you know, it's, it's responsive +[2488.00 --> 2489.00] when you're, when you're using it. +[2489.00 --> 2491.00] I dunno, I just, I find that extremely excited. +[2491.00 --> 2493.00] I hope that, uh, we have a review sample coming. +[2493.00 --> 2496.00] Otherwise I'll just buy one and I will have a review coming. +[2496.00 --> 2499.00] Are you, are, do you feel the need to upgrade your pebble? +[2499.00 --> 2501.00] Cause there is the Pebble steel. +[2501.00 --> 2506.00] Um, I looked at the Pebble steel and I'm like, you know, I'm not so much in it, but I like it. +[2506.00 --> 2510.00] It looks very flashy, but I don't, I like the lightweight watch. +[2510.00 --> 2514.00] Um, and it would be a little bit heavier on my wrist and I'd rather not have the, the extra weight. +[2514.00 --> 2517.00] Um, but we were talking about the, the Qualcomm there. +[2517.00 --> 2520.00] That actually sounds like something I'd be interested in looking at. +[2520.00 --> 2525.00] One of the, one, there's a few drawbacks that I have at the Pebble that kind of, kind of get to me, +[2525.00 --> 2530.00] get to me, but they're mostly, it's just the functionality of, of like, I can't answer my phone call, +[2530.00 --> 2534.00] but I can see who's there and I can mute the buzz on my wrist, but I can't actually answer it. +[2534.00 --> 2540.00] But if I had a Bluetooth headset, I could just hit the button on my Bluetooth as opposed to hitting, you know, the button on the watch. +[2540.00 --> 2543.00] But it comes down to how wired up you want to be. +[2543.00 --> 2544.00] Yeah. +[2544.00 --> 2557.00] And my, I think my, my, my usual statement in relation to like the Pebble versus like the gear is that the Pebble is a wristwatch that communicates with your phone that receives notifications. +[2557.00 --> 2561.00] The gear is an extension of your phone that has a watch face. +[2561.00 --> 2562.00] Yes. +[2562.00 --> 2565.00] That is probably the best way to put it. +[2565.00 --> 2566.00] Yeah. +[2566.00 --> 2574.00] It's, they're, they're all, they're all very fancy, but I mean, I, I, I look, you know, I'm in New York, so I'm, I'm on the subway all the time and you go above ground, below ground. +[2574.00 --> 2578.00] And I don't want to have to pull my phone out of my pocket all the time because in and out of the pocket, it's just a pain in the butt. +[2578.00 --> 2582.00] So, you know, getting the notifications on my wrist, I'm like, not important, not important. +[2582.00 --> 2583.00] Oh, that one's important. +[2583.00 --> 2584.00] Oh, not important. +[2584.00 --> 2587.00] You know, that kind of jazz is, is always, is always nice to have. +[2587.00 --> 2594.00] And the fact that I can control like my, my music or, you know, just track forward, track back, or I can, I've actually got audible right now. +[2594.00 --> 2600.00] So I'm, I can control the play and stop, you know, play and pause on the, on the, on the audible track. +[2600.00 --> 2604.00] So if I'm actually listening to a book, I can just pause it with the watch, which is pretty awesome. +[2604.00 --> 2605.00] Yep. +[2605.00 --> 2606.00] Totally agree. +[2606.00 --> 2607.00] That's funny. +[2607.00 --> 2615.00] Someone in the Twitch chat seems to think that you're beating around the bush, trying not to, you know, sound like you don't like the pebble because I might be offended or something. +[2615.00 --> 2618.00] Guys, Kane is the reason I bought a pebble. +[2618.00 --> 2623.00] He was like, he was like, we were at, um, whatever that show was, PAX. +[2623.00 --> 2626.00] And Kane was like, look at my pebble. +[2626.00 --> 2627.00] And I'm like, oh. +[2627.00 --> 2629.00] I just got it too. +[2629.00 --> 2634.00] And that's where it was really funny because I'm running around with Logan and I was sitting down at dinner with, with Logan and a friend of mine. +[2634.00 --> 2638.00] And every 10 minutes, my, my watch was just buzzing nonstop. +[2638.00 --> 2639.00] And I'm like, okay, this is really annoying. +[2639.00 --> 2641.00] And I'd look at my watch and look at my watch. +[2641.00 --> 2643.00] And then my buddy was like, dude, are you going somewhere? +[2643.00 --> 2644.00] I know. +[2644.00 --> 2645.00] Are you waiting for something? +[2645.00 --> 2647.00] I'm like, no, it's text messages. +[2647.00 --> 2648.00] I'm going to shut it off. +[2648.00 --> 2650.00] I actually took it off and put it in my pocket. +[2650.00 --> 2651.00] I'm like, it's, it's, it's driving me nuts. +[2651.00 --> 2654.00] And that's when you, like, you know, you're, you said you're a heavy user. +[2654.00 --> 2662.00] I've got several email accounts and several, uh, several text message, you know, text SMS and, and, you know, G chat coming into this. +[2662.00 --> 2663.00] Yup. +[2663.00 --> 2671.00] And I actually had to tune down like, which ones are, which ones are email accounts that I don't want to get the notifications of because I check it often enough. +[2671.00 --> 2674.00] And then I've got a couple that I'm like, okay, this one's, I get less email. +[2674.00 --> 2677.00] So I'd rather have the notification than an email showed up into that. +[2677.00 --> 2679.00] And even that one's getting too busy now. +[2679.00 --> 2680.00] So I'm tempted to shut that one off. +[2680.00 --> 2681.00] So no, I, I do. +[2681.00 --> 2682.00] I love my pebble. +[2682.00 --> 2683.00] I think it's, it's great. +[2683.00 --> 2684.00] All right. +[2684.00 --> 2685.00] Well, I think, Oh, sorry. +[2685.00 --> 2686.00] Go ahead. +[2686.00 --> 2692.00] No, I'm just, I'm just bitter that my, my coworker told me about the pebble literally five minutes after the Kickstarter ended. +[2692.00 --> 2696.00] And I'm like, you didn't tell me this 10 minutes ago when I could have got in on that. +[2696.00 --> 2699.00] So I had to wait an extra two months while he's running around going, Hey, look at this. +[2699.00 --> 2703.00] And I'm like, yeah, it's good times. +[2703.00 --> 2704.00] All right. +[2704.00 --> 2708.00] Well, I think we're, I think we're at the end of the guest segment. +[2708.00 --> 2711.00] Cain, thank you so much for joining us. +[2711.00 --> 2719.00] If you don't mind, just kind of tell folks where to find you, tell them, you know, how they can follow the tech syndicate family, so to speak. +[2719.00 --> 2725.00] And maybe get, can you give us a teaser in terms of what they can expect to find in terms of an upcoming topic that you've been working on? +[2725.00 --> 2726.00] Maybe. +[2726.00 --> 2727.00] Hmm. +[2727.00 --> 2731.00] Well, I've been just, let's just work backwards on that. +[2731.00 --> 2737.00] I, I've been looking at building a new PSNs router. +[2737.00 --> 2743.00] And again, with the, the, the, the linksys router coming out and a few other devices that I'm, I'm looking at building. +[2743.00 --> 2750.00] So I've got a couple of how to kind of builds and less, I guess they're less on how to and more like, this is a project that I'm working on. +[2750.00 --> 2752.00] That's kind of insane and out, out the window. +[2752.00 --> 2754.00] And this is what it is. +[2754.00 --> 2760.00] So I've got a couple of those that I'm working on that'll be probably, probably ready to go in the next month or two, maybe three, depending on financing. +[2760.00 --> 2765.00] Otherwise, you can find us tech syndicate.com. +[2765.00 --> 2769.00] I stream on Twitch as often as I can. +[2769.00 --> 2773.00] So I'm, I'm streaming on Twitch almost, almost every night. +[2773.00 --> 2779.00] And you can find me Twitch, Deus Kane, D E U S Kane, Q A I N on Twitch. +[2779.00 --> 2781.00] Yeah. +[2781.00 --> 2784.00] Otherwise I gotta go watch the tech. +[2784.00 --> 2786.00] The tech should be out sometime soon. +[2786.00 --> 2787.00] All right. +[2787.00 --> 2788.00] Take care, man. +[2788.00 --> 2790.00] Thanks so much for joining us on the show. +[2790.00 --> 2791.00] All right. +[2791.00 --> 2792.00] Thanks a lot for having me guys. +[2792.00 --> 2793.00] See ya. +[2793.00 --> 2794.00] All right. +[2794.00 --> 2798.00] So thank you very much to Kane for joining us guys. +[2798.00 --> 2801.00] I'm going to take this opportunity to do our sponsor break. +[2801.00 --> 2803.00] Oh, I might've screwed something up. +[2803.00 --> 2804.00] Okay. +[2804.00 --> 2807.00] We're going to put like a mouse pointer there because, Oh, right. +[2807.00 --> 2808.00] Yeah. +[2808.00 --> 2809.00] They won't, they won't see that. +[2809.00 --> 2810.00] Okay. +[2810.00 --> 2811.00] Well, whatever. +[2811.00 --> 2815.00] Anyway, the point is guys, our show today is going to be a little bit more. +[2815.00 --> 2818.00] Guys, our show today is brought to you by Squarespace. +[2818.00 --> 2823.00] The easy way to create your very own custom website and have them take care of the hosting +[2823.00 --> 2824.00] for you. +[2824.00 --> 2828.00] If you buy a year's worth of membership, then they'll actually cover the cost of the domain +[2828.00 --> 2829.00] for you. +[2829.00 --> 2833.00] Plus, if you use offer code Linus1, not Linus12. +[2833.00 --> 2836.00] Offer code Linus1 because it's January. +[2836.00 --> 2842.00] If you use offer code Linus1, then you will save 10% off of your Squarespace, off your first +[2842.00 --> 2843.00] Squarespace purchase. +[2843.00 --> 2848.00] So, uh, Squarespace is a great way to build up a blog, to build up a portfolio, to build +[2848.00 --> 2849.00] up, um, a store. +[2849.00 --> 2853.00] They've actually got about, I think it's over 20 templates now. +[2853.00 --> 2856.00] And you just kind of go in, you sign up, they have a free trial. +[2856.00 --> 2857.00] So there's no commitment whatsoever. +[2857.00 --> 2860.00] You just go and try the trial, start tinkering around with it. +[2860.00 --> 2864.00] And they have tools that allow you to pick a template that's optimized for the type of +[2864.00 --> 2865.00] site that you're trying to build. +[2865.00 --> 2870.00] Then, once you get that, you can go around and play around with things, whether it's, +[2870.00 --> 2874.00] well, you're, um, sort of previewing it live, or whether you're just kind of, you know, adding +[2874.00 --> 2876.00] items to a store or whatever else. +[2876.00 --> 2880.00] And then what they do is they take that and turn it into something that looks great on +[2880.00 --> 2884.00] a desktop, notebook, tablet, phone, or whatever else the case may be. +[2884.00 --> 2888.00] It's all dynamic, it's very easy to use, and you don't have to worry about pesky little +[2888.00 --> 2893.00] things like, you know, oh, is my hosting plan good enough? +[2893.00 --> 2898.00] We've, uh, we've done this test a lot of times in the past, but, uh, we switched LinusMediaGroup.com +[2898.00 --> 2902.00] over from a WordPress blog to a Squarespace site. +[2902.00 --> 2906.00] It took a fraction of the time that it took to build the WordPress site. +[2906.00 --> 2908.00] It is much more robust. +[2908.00 --> 2912.00] Everyone can hit it at the same time, and it will not go down. +[2912.00 --> 2917.00] I think we managed to make it stutter once, but then it was back up and snappy again. +[2917.00 --> 2920.00] And, uh, yeah, that's pretty much it. +[2920.00 --> 2924.00] It's just super easy to maintain, super inexpensive, and, well, I went and navigated away from it, +[2924.00 --> 2925.00] but there you go, guys. +[2925.00 --> 2926.00] Look at that! +[2926.00 --> 2928.00] There's, like, a thing about the Wancho on there. +[2929.00 --> 2930.00] That makes sense. +[2930.00 --> 2931.00] It is our website. +[2931.00 --> 2932.00] It does. +[2932.00 --> 2933.00] I don't visit our website that often. +[2934.00 --> 2935.00] But that's good! +[2935.00 --> 2936.00] You don't even know what's on it? +[2936.00 --> 2937.00] Well, sort of. +[2937.00 --> 2940.00] I mean, I looked at it at one point, but I don't have to go there that often. +[2940.00 --> 2942.00] I mean, I know what we do. +[2942.00 --> 2948.00] Yeah, but if we, like, add something, if we start doing something new, would you remember to put it on there? +[2948.00 --> 2949.00] Probably not. +[2949.00 --> 2950.00] Yeah. +[2950.00 --> 2952.00] But because of Squarespace, it would be easy! +[2952.00 --> 2954.00] So one more time, guys, that's squarespace.com. +[2954.00 --> 2957.00] The offer code is Linus1 if you want to try building your own website. +[2957.00 --> 2961.00] Of course, there's a trial, so you don't have to commit to paying anything upfront. +[2961.00 --> 2968.00] And just, please, if you do get Squarespace, don't forget to, like, use our offer code, because if nobody ever used our offer code, then we'd be sad. +[2968.00 --> 2975.00] And Squarespace might not sponsor the show anymore, even though I'm sure that they would still love to sponsor the show, because Wancho's awesome. +[2976.00 --> 2979.00] Speaking of awesome, this is freaking awesome. +[2979.00 --> 2984.00] This was posted on the forum by Funkstar, NOT Funkstar's mod, to be clear. +[2984.00 --> 2985.00] It's, like, right there. +[2985.00 --> 2986.00] It's, like, in bold. +[2986.00 --> 2994.00] So the actual mod was found on Tony Mac X 86, and check this out. +[2994.00 --> 2995.00] Yes. +[2995.00 --> 2999.00] A trash can based Mac Pro. +[2999.00 --> 3000.00] Yes. +[3000.00 --> 3003.00] A PC based system inside. +[3003.00 --> 3007.00] So it's, uh, you can tell from the I.O. Shield, it's going to be a gigabyte motherboard. +[3007.00 --> 3012.00] Also, they're using a PCI Express extension in order to put a discrete graphics card in it. +[3012.00 --> 3020.00] Um, Apple's innovative single fan at the top of the system pulls air through the entire system. +[3020.00 --> 3024.00] Looks like it wasn't that difficult to replicate by putting a fan at the top of the system. +[3024.00 --> 3025.00] At the top of the system. +[3025.00 --> 3026.00] Making it pull air through the system. +[3026.00 --> 3027.00] Making it pull air through the system. +[3027.00 --> 3029.00] Yes, thank you, Luke, for the color commentary. +[3029.00 --> 3031.00] Here's our motherboard. +[3031.00 --> 3032.00] Here's our CPU. +[3032.00 --> 3034.00] It uses a Core i3 processor. +[3034.00 --> 3035.00] Check that out. +[3035.00 --> 3036.00] It's mounted on the bottom piece there. +[3036.00 --> 3039.00] There was one piece that was custom fabricated. +[3039.00 --> 3042.00] I believe it's, uh, there's the graphics card. +[3042.00 --> 3044.00] There it is actually installed. +[3044.00 --> 3045.00] This thing is so awesome. +[3045.00 --> 3046.00] I love it. +[3046.00 --> 3047.00] Here it is top down. +[3047.00 --> 3049.00] He ends up making it look really sharp. +[3049.00 --> 3050.00] Yeah. +[3050.00 --> 3053.00] So SSD and hard drive. +[3053.00 --> 3055.00] In fact, what kind of hard drive is that? +[3055.00 --> 3056.00] Fujitsu. +[3056.00 --> 3059.00] It's 120 gigs, so it looks like truly a ghetto mod. +[3059.00 --> 3061.00] Like, find an old hard drive and put it in there. +[3061.00 --> 3064.00] Because that SSD is probably 120 gigs or bigger. +[3065.00 --> 3068.00] This gives you a better look at how it's constructed inside. +[3068.00 --> 3074.00] Not even sure if that's like the most safe, like, you know, grounded, friendly way to mount that in there. +[3074.00 --> 3076.00] But the point is that it works. +[3076.00 --> 3077.00] There it is. +[3077.00 --> 3078.00] It's starting to get finished now. +[3078.00 --> 3079.00] Yes. +[3079.00 --> 3080.00] It's not. +[3080.00 --> 3081.00] Red on the outside. +[3081.00 --> 3084.00] This is a custom fabricated piece to make it look more like the Mac Pro. +[3084.00 --> 3086.00] And... +[3086.00 --> 3088.00] Right there, guys. +[3088.00 --> 3091.00] The red trash can Mac Pro. +[3091.00 --> 3094.00] The world's first true trash can PC. +[3094.00 --> 3096.00] I absolutely love this mod. +[3096.00 --> 3097.00] I think it's fantastic. +[3097.00 --> 3100.00] Yes, it is a genuine Hackintosh. +[3100.00 --> 3102.00] And there it is. +[3102.00 --> 3104.00] Now, this got me thinking. +[3104.00 --> 3109.00] You know, it actually reminds me of a video that they did on Tech Syndicate. +[3109.00 --> 3111.00] So, for those of you who missed him, Kane was here. +[3111.00 --> 3115.00] So, make sure you check out the archive to watch the, uh, to watch the guest segment. +[3115.00 --> 3120.00] But it reminds me of a video Tech Syndicate did called, Has Apple Ever Really Invented Anything? +[3120.00 --> 3125.00] And I wanted to find out, has the trash can PC ever been done before? +[3125.00 --> 3129.00] The answer from geekygadgets.com is yes. +[3129.00 --> 3133.00] So, that's an Intel Pentium D installed in a trash can. +[3133.00 --> 3134.00] Wastepaper basket. +[3134.00 --> 3137.00] They went and they put a honeycomb mesh over the top of it. +[3137.00 --> 3140.00] And you can actually see the IO was cut into the side. +[3140.00 --> 3143.00] And, uh, the power supply kind of sticks out of the side. +[3143.00 --> 3148.00] So, okay, maybe Apple did it more elegantly than this particular modder with Pentium D. +[3148.00 --> 3149.00] But it was already done. +[3149.00 --> 3154.00] But, the trash can PC has indeed been done before. +[3154.00 --> 3156.00] Simpsons did, well, no, the Simpsons didn't do it. +[3156.00 --> 3157.00] But someone did it. +[3157.00 --> 3158.00] Someone who's kind of done everything. +[3158.00 --> 3159.00] The PC. +[3159.00 --> 3160.00] PC did it. +[3160.00 --> 3161.00] Alright. +[3161.00 --> 3164.00] So, let's move into Steam Developer Days. +[3164.00 --> 3167.00] I think you've been paying closer attention to this than I necessarily have. +[3167.00 --> 3170.00] But why don't we start with the Steam Controller changes? +[3170.00 --> 3175.00] The problems with Steam Developer Days right now is there's still news leaking about it. +[3175.00 --> 3176.00] Yes. +[3176.00 --> 3178.00] So, like, you should still be checking into this kind of stuff. +[3178.00 --> 3179.00] Yes. +[3179.00 --> 3181.00] And, like, even stuff that's already, yeah. +[3181.00 --> 3182.00] There's still a lot of news coming. +[3182.00 --> 3186.00] And, uh, Gabe Newell's AMA I do not believe has happened yet. +[3186.00 --> 3187.00] Is that gonna happen? +[3187.00 --> 3188.00] Did the donation? +[3188.00 --> 3189.00] I went to the website. +[3189.00 --> 3193.00] There's no, like, as far as I could find, there's no, like, this is what dollar amount we're at. +[3194.00 --> 3195.00] Huh. +[3195.00 --> 3196.00] So, I have no idea how to tell. +[3196.00 --> 3199.00] And I asked if anyone could find his AMA and I couldn't find his AMA. +[3199.00 --> 3200.00] So, like, I don't think it's happened yet. +[3200.00 --> 3201.00] Okay. +[3201.00 --> 3208.00] Um, but I'm pretty sure if Gabe Newell says there's gonna be an AMA at $500,000, there will be an AMA because it will hit $500,000. +[3208.00 --> 3216.00] Yeah, so Gabe Newell asked for a $500,000 donation target for, I think it was a, was it a heart thing? +[3216.00 --> 3218.00] Shoot, I can't remember. +[3218.00 --> 3224.00] Uh, it's, it's, it's like a charity campaign that revolves around a racing thing and I think it has to do with, uh, like, children's. +[3224.00 --> 3226.00] Here we go. +[3226.00 --> 3227.00] The heart of racing. +[3227.00 --> 3228.00] Okay. +[3228.00 --> 3229.00] Mm-hmm. +[3229.00 --> 3232.00] So, took to the website to promote the heart of racing, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. +[3232.00 --> 3234.00] See, there's no, like, we are at this amount. +[3234.00 --> 3236.00] Yeah, they don't have a target. +[3236.00 --> 3237.00] Brand new look. +[3237.00 --> 3241.00] Seattle Children's Hospital winning races and winning for the kids. +[3241.00 --> 3243.00] Welcome to the heart of racing. +[3243.00 --> 3244.00] Performance racing school. +[3244.00 --> 3247.00] Raising money for pediatric cardiac care. +[3247.00 --> 3248.00] There you guys, there you go, guys. +[3248.00 --> 3250.00] I can't think of a more worthy cause. +[3250.00 --> 3251.00] Yeah. +[3251.00 --> 3255.00] Um, but of course, that's what we expect from our Lord and Savior Gabe N, to come up with +[3255.00 --> 3260.00] the worthiest possible cause and then give us the best possible reward for achieving it, +[3260.00 --> 3262.00] which would be an AMA with Gabe N. +[3262.00 --> 3265.00] Which, there will be endless amounts of Half-Life 3 questions. +[3265.00 --> 3271.00] You know, he tried, he, he was picking, he has a car in this race and he, he wanted to pick the number for the car and he asked for three. +[3271.00 --> 3272.00] Aww. +[3272.00 --> 3273.00] They said no. +[3273.00 --> 3276.00] So, it's not three. +[3276.00 --> 3277.00] Just like, really? +[3277.00 --> 3282.00] And he was like, yeah, they said nope. +[3282.00 --> 3288.00] So, it's like, I thought that was absolutely hilarious. +[3288.00 --> 3289.00] That's fantastic. +[3289.00 --> 3293.00] Um, so, so the Steam controller, there was a touchpad in the middle. +[3293.00 --> 3294.00] Yes. +[3294.00 --> 3296.00] And there was the ABXY buttons around it and stuff. +[3296.00 --> 3298.00] The touchpad in the middle and all that kind of stuff is gone. +[3298.00 --> 3300.00] There's just kind of a blank spot there now. +[3300.00 --> 3302.00] And the touchpad was going to be a screen. +[3302.00 --> 3303.00] Yes. +[3303.00 --> 3304.00] At some point. +[3304.00 --> 3307.00] But that's just, here, here, you guys can, you guys can see. +[3307.00 --> 3308.00] Gone. +[3308.00 --> 3309.00] Okay, go ahead. +[3309.00 --> 3310.00] Okay, so that's, that's gone completely. +[3310.00 --> 3311.00] Remember this is a mock-up. +[3311.00 --> 3313.00] So things could slightly change, positioning could change, stuff like that. +[3313.00 --> 3314.00] It's a mock-up. +[3314.00 --> 3315.00] Yup. +[3315.00 --> 3319.00] But that's gone and now there's two kind of D-pad style-y things, they say in the video. +[3319.00 --> 3322.00] But to me it just looks like two sets of ABXY buttons. +[3322.00 --> 3323.00] That's what it looks like to me too. +[3323.00 --> 3324.00] Yeah. +[3324.00 --> 3326.00] I mean this is being called a D-pad right here. +[3326.00 --> 3329.00] But that, there, there, it's like, it's, it's, it's four circular, it's like, it's like, it's +[3329.00 --> 3331.00] four circular, it just looks like ABXY buttons to me. +[3331.00 --> 3335.00] Like, I'm sure you could program them to be whatever you want because it's a very customizable +[3335.00 --> 3336.00] controller. +[3336.00 --> 3337.00] Yes. +[3337.00 --> 3338.00] And it's symmetrical. +[3338.00 --> 3341.00] So you could go left-handed D-pad if you wanted in all likelihood. +[3341.00 --> 3344.00] Which is cool for people that are left-handed. +[3344.00 --> 3348.00] But yeah, I, I think they're going to just be ABXY buttons or D-pads, however the heck you +[3348.00 --> 3349.00] want to run it. +[3349.00 --> 3351.00] I don't think they're specifically one or the other. +[3351.00 --> 3356.00] One thing's for sure is that this controller is still very much in flux and the version +[3356.00 --> 3359.00] that I got to be hands-on with, I actually got to, I don't know if I told you this, but +[3359.00 --> 3361.00] I got to feel the haptic feedback. +[3361.00 --> 3362.00] They let me use it. +[3362.00 --> 3363.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3363.00 --> 3368.00] The version that I was using makes me glad that they are still working on it because it +[3368.00 --> 3372.00] did not feel like, like something that I could actually- +[3372.00 --> 3376.00] Like that godly haptic feedback that they've been claiming for a long time? +[3376.00 --> 3382.00] Yeah, I mean the, the, the, the demo where the Valve, presumably dev or, where the Valve +[3382.00 --> 3389.00] employee is playing Portal with the Steam controller is very impressive and very cool, but it's +[3389.00 --> 3395.00] kind of like when game devs do like a versus pro teams or versus whatever and it's like, +[3395.00 --> 3398.00] oh, no, you guys actually designed this thing. +[3398.00 --> 3401.00] So, yeah, you can probably use it. +[3401.00 --> 3405.00] And that's, it's not that impressive anymore that you can do it, but wait until we get it +[3405.00 --> 3409.00] in the hands of the average gamer and then let's find out how impressive it is. +[3409.00 --> 3414.00] I still, no matter, no matter basically how bad it is, because even if it has the haptic +[3414.00 --> 3420.00] feedback of a mediocre haptic feedback phone, it'll still be good for playing games like Civ. +[3420.00 --> 3421.00] Yeah, that's true. +[3421.00 --> 3423.00] And I'll still want to use it more for those kinds of games. +[3423.00 --> 3428.00] Um, so I'm still excited for it because it will, it'll enable me to play more games on +[3428.00 --> 3431.00] my TV using a computer than I was really able to do before. +[3431.00 --> 3432.00] Yeah. +[3432.00 --> 3434.00] But I'm still probably going to use a different controller mainly. +[3434.00 --> 3435.00] Hit us up on Twitter, guys. +[3435.00 --> 3439.00] What controller do you plan to use with your Steam machine? +[3439.00 --> 3440.00] Your hypothetical Steam machine. +[3440.00 --> 3445.00] Let's assume for the sake of this discussion that you are going to have a Steam machine, +[3445.00 --> 3448.00] so that's a Linux based console hooked up to your TV. +[3448.00 --> 3450.00] What controller will you use? +[3450.00 --> 3452.00] Because I'm leaning towards wireless Xbox 360. +[3452.00 --> 3453.00] Yep. +[3453.00 --> 3454.00] I already have the dongle. +[3454.00 --> 3456.00] I already have at least two controllers. +[3456.00 --> 3457.00] Although, you know what's funny? +[3457.00 --> 3462.00] Is I had kind of an amusing moment last night where my wife was like, you know what? +[3462.00 --> 3464.00] We haven't played a game in forever. +[3464.00 --> 3467.00] And I was like, you want a game? +[3467.00 --> 3469.00] And she was like, yeah, sure. +[3469.00 --> 3471.00] You know, we could play some TF2 or something. +[3471.00 --> 3473.00] I'm like, we're kind of in bed. +[3473.00 --> 3475.00] And she's like, okay, maybe not TF2 then. +[3475.00 --> 3483.00] But like, okay, so I pull up my laptop and I fire up my Steam library and I'm like, what local two-player games are there on Steam? +[3483.00 --> 3484.00] I have this problem so much. +[3484.00 --> 3489.00] And I go to like Co-Optimus and I go to all these other kind of things and it's just like, but not much. +[3489.00 --> 3490.00] There's really not much. +[3490.00 --> 3500.00] There's like, there's 2D side-scroller action games that have a Co-Opt mode, but I'm not sure how many of them it's really baked in and how many it's like an afterthought. +[3500.00 --> 3502.00] Guacamelee, it's actually quite good. +[3502.00 --> 3503.00] Guacamelee. +[3503.00 --> 3504.00] Okay, but that's the problem. +[3504.00 --> 3505.00] And you know what? +[3505.00 --> 3507.00] You can browse the Steam store by Linux compatibility. +[3507.00 --> 3509.00] You can browse by controller compatibility. +[3509.00 --> 3515.00] But there isn't really like a, hey, this game is like a great party game. +[3515.00 --> 3516.00] I have this many friends at my house. +[3516.00 --> 3517.00] Tell me what to play. +[3517.00 --> 3519.00] That would be awesome. +[3519.00 --> 3524.00] Gabe N, if you're watching, can you please deliver that to us? +[3524.00 --> 3525.00] Thank you, Gabe. +[3525.00 --> 3527.00] I love how it's deliver that to us. +[3527.00 --> 3528.00] It's specific. +[3528.00 --> 3529.00] Deliver. +[3529.00 --> 3531.00] A specific Gabe, not just Gabe. +[3531.00 --> 3532.00] Gabe N. +[3532.00 --> 3534.00] There's only one Gabe N. +[3534.00 --> 3536.00] Speaking of Gabe N, there's a couple quotes. +[3536.00 --> 3543.00] So one of them was, we're trying to make SteamOS, or not sick, whatever the, that thing. +[3543.00 --> 3546.00] Okay, we're trying to make SteamOS as open as possible. +[3546.00 --> 3550.00] If EA wants to put Origin on it, that would be fine, etc. +[3550.00 --> 3554.00] So, you know, he was trying to pick an example, I guess, of something that people might think +[3554.00 --> 3557.00] that Valve would not want on the platform. +[3557.00 --> 3558.00] That's extremely exciting. +[3558.00 --> 3560.00] That, to me, is a huge part of the future of SteamOS. +[3560.00 --> 3561.00] I'm also not super surprised. +[3561.00 --> 3562.00] It's Debian. +[3562.00 --> 3563.00] What are they going to do? +[3563.00 --> 3565.00] Yeah, I guess they couldn't really stop it. +[3565.00 --> 3568.00] I'm sure they could in some way, but it's Debian, so someone would have found a way +[3568.00 --> 3569.00] around it. +[3569.00 --> 3575.00] Do you think EA would find a way to support Linux and not suck all at the same time? +[3575.00 --> 3576.00] No. +[3576.00 --> 3577.00] Alright then. +[3577.00 --> 3578.00] They might find a way to support Linux so they can get more sales. +[3578.00 --> 3581.00] The not sucking part, though, that's asking a lot. +[3581.00 --> 3585.00] Steam Dev Days was a non-press event, to be clear. +[3585.00 --> 3586.00] No press were allowed. +[3586.00 --> 3589.00] But that didn't prevent a lot of the... +[3589.00 --> 3591.00] I think there was something like 1,200 developers there. +[3591.00 --> 3592.00] That's a lot, yeah. +[3592.00 --> 3593.00] Yeah, 1,200 developers. +[3593.00 --> 3596.00] It didn't prevent any of them from, like, tweeting all kinds of awesome stuff. +[3596.00 --> 3601.00] So there was a lot about microtransactions and how the systems that Valve has built are +[3601.00 --> 3603.00] not designed to make players unhappy. +[3603.00 --> 3611.00] You know, the whole pay-to-win concept is not an issue when people are buying hats and designing +[3611.00 --> 3612.00] hats. +[3612.00 --> 3617.00] And speaking of designing, Valve paid out $10 million, I think it was this year alone, +[3617.00 --> 3621.00] to folks who developed maps and hats and content for their games. +[3621.00 --> 3625.00] And Valve's kind of going, well, yeah, it's great for us because it costs a fraction +[3625.00 --> 3628.00] of what it would cost to maintain a complete separate staff on our side. +[3628.00 --> 3630.00] And they're still skimming off of it. +[3630.00 --> 3631.00] They're still making money. +[3631.00 --> 3632.00] And they're still skimming. +[3632.00 --> 3638.00] And the level of creativity that you can access by having such a large, wide, diverse +[3638.00 --> 3640.00] team of people developing for your games is great. +[3640.00 --> 3648.00] So it was $10,215,796 over 2,349 items built by 661 creators. +[3648.00 --> 3650.00] And that was just for Team Fortress 2. +[3650.00 --> 3653.00] And I think that works out to an average of something ridiculous. +[3653.00 --> 3654.00] Yeah. +[3654.00 --> 3655.00] Like $20,000 per creator. +[3655.00 --> 3660.00] Meaning that for everyone who created one thing that sold, you know, $10,000, there's +[3660.00 --> 3664.00] someone that's doing pretty darn well just crafting Steam items. +[3664.00 --> 3665.00] That's awesome! +[3665.00 --> 3666.00] That's really cool, actually. +[3666.00 --> 3667.00] That's really awesome. +[3667.00 --> 3669.00] You could legitimately make really good money. +[3669.00 --> 3673.00] Like if you, say you're a high school kid who was like really good at art. +[3673.00 --> 3674.00] Yep. +[3674.00 --> 3678.00] You could just make some really cool stuff and end up not having to get like that summer job. +[3678.00 --> 3679.00] You could just play TF2. +[3679.00 --> 3680.00] That's very cool. +[3680.00 --> 3681.00] There's another quote here. +[3681.00 --> 3686.00] Over 90% of the items in TF2 are made by the community, which is amazing. +[3686.00 --> 3687.00] That's really cool. +[3687.00 --> 3691.00] They talked about the compendium with Dota 2 and the International, how they were able +[3691.00 --> 3697.00] to make, let the community dictate how the, you know, well, how big the purse was if nothing +[3697.00 --> 3698.00] else. +[3698.00 --> 3699.00] Yeah. +[3699.00 --> 3701.00] You buy tickets and then it splits it with the people that are in the thing, which makes +[3701.00 --> 3705.00] people want to buy tickets to an online event. +[3705.00 --> 3707.00] And it makes people want to play. +[3707.00 --> 3710.00] Because it's not just this one team will win. +[3710.00 --> 3712.00] You can support whoever you want. +[3712.00 --> 3716.00] Linus Media Group could potentially, you know, train up and have a team. +[3716.00 --> 3722.00] And if we found folks to, you know, buy compendium, buy tickets for us, then that's... +[3722.00 --> 3724.00] If we found folks to like play for us. +[3724.00 --> 3725.00] Yeah. +[3725.00 --> 3726.00] If we found folks to play for us. +[3726.00 --> 3727.00] Not only do we not have enough people. +[3727.00 --> 3729.00] Oh, if Yvonne played, we'd have enough people. +[3729.00 --> 3730.00] We could start an eSports team. +[3730.00 --> 3731.00] Why not? +[3731.00 --> 3732.00] If Yvonne played, we'd have enough people. +[3732.00 --> 3733.00] Yeah. +[3733.00 --> 3734.00] For like most of them. +[3734.00 --> 3735.00] We'd have to recruit much better people. +[3735.00 --> 3736.00] Yes. +[3736.00 --> 3737.00] Yeah. +[3737.00 --> 3738.00] Anyway. +[3738.00 --> 3739.00] Because we're not, that's not going to work. +[3739.00 --> 3740.00] Um, so... +[3740.00 --> 3741.00] We're not good. +[3741.00 --> 3743.00] So you need to, there's a bunch more stuff, but one of the things you have to do is go +[3743.00 --> 3746.00] to the bottom actually and click, uh, read next page. +[3746.00 --> 3747.00] Yeah, I already did that. +[3747.00 --> 3751.00] Um, Valve has no plans to release their own virtual reality hardware, but are saying that +[3751.00 --> 3752.00] could change. +[3752.00 --> 3755.00] And there's, um, there's been leaky stuff that I've found. +[3755.00 --> 3759.00] I'm not sure exactly, I haven't been able to confirm it a million times, but I've seen +[3759.00 --> 3763.00] stuff that apparently Valve might be releasing all of their VR tech to Oculus. +[3763.00 --> 3764.00] Which would be really cool. +[3764.00 --> 3768.00] They are at least, there is VR tech within, uh, Crystal Cove. +[3768.00 --> 3769.00] That's what it's called, right? +[3769.00 --> 3772.00] Within Oculus' Crystal Cove prototype. +[3772.00 --> 3778.00] So they are working together, but they're basically saying we're two years away from like, +[3778.00 --> 3781.00] a great VR experience. +[3781.00 --> 3787.00] But with that said, the head tracking HD prototype that I tried at the Intel booth was like bleeping +[3787.00 --> 3788.00] awesome. +[3788.00 --> 3789.00] And that's not the newest one. +[3789.00 --> 3790.00] And that's not Crystal Cove. +[3790.00 --> 3792.00] That's not even the best one. +[3792.00 --> 3793.00] Yeah. +[3793.00 --> 3794.00] So there's a lot left to be done. +[3794.00 --> 3797.00] They figure up to a hundred times resolution will continue to help. +[3797.00 --> 3798.00] So, yeah. +[3799.00 --> 3803.00] We gotta get rid of the cord, the optics need to be better, the head tracking needs to +[3803.00 --> 3804.00] be better, everything needs to be better. +[3804.00 --> 3806.00] But this is so exciting. +[3806.00 --> 3812.00] One of the things that really came out of it that I thought was disappointing was Valve +[3812.00 --> 3816.00] coming out and saying, and Oculus coming out and saying, look, this isn't something you're +[3816.00 --> 3818.00] just gonna be porting into games. +[3818.00 --> 3819.00] It's true though. +[3819.00 --> 3820.00] It's totally true. +[3820.00 --> 3821.00] But it's disappointing. +[3821.00 --> 3827.00] I mean, how excited were you at the prospect, about the prospect of playing Skyrim? +[3827.00 --> 3828.00] Yeah. +[3828.00 --> 3829.00] In like, with VR. +[3829.00 --> 3830.00] Yeah, yeah. +[3830.00 --> 3831.00] That's not a thing. +[3831.00 --> 3833.00] And like, you can, you kind of can though. +[3833.00 --> 3837.00] People have gotten it working, but it's super ghetto and it doesn't really work that well +[3837.00 --> 3839.00] and there's problems with it and stuff like that. +[3839.00 --> 3841.00] And it's just, it's something you have to accept. +[3841.00 --> 3843.00] There's really cool stuff coming out though. +[3843.00 --> 3848.00] One thing that I've been looking into lately is someone made a bird demo thing. +[3848.00 --> 3853.00] So it's, it's a, it's, it's, you can fly around to this mountain range, which looks real. +[3853.00 --> 3854.00] Yeah. +[3854.00 --> 3855.00] Like completely graphics are so good. +[3855.00 --> 3857.00] I, it might be just recorded footage. +[3857.00 --> 3858.00] I'm not sure. +[3858.00 --> 3859.00] Right. +[3859.00 --> 3860.00] Because I haven't been able to actually experience it. +[3860.00 --> 3862.00] I've just seen a YouTube video of it. +[3862.00 --> 3865.00] So I haven't really been able to see it in that high quality or running on my own computer. +[3865.00 --> 3870.00] So I'm not exactly sure, but then they just put like fake eagle wings on the side and +[3870.00 --> 3873.00] you just control where you fly by looking. +[3873.00 --> 3874.00] Cool. +[3874.00 --> 3877.00] Super sweet, but it was made for that. +[3877.00 --> 3878.00] So it's, it's awesome. +[3878.00 --> 3882.00] And then stuff like this, which they're showing right here, which is how, hold on, hold on. +[3882.00 --> 3883.00] They can't see it. +[3883.00 --> 3884.00] They can't see it. +[3884.00 --> 3885.00] I'm working on it. +[3885.00 --> 3887.00] Oh, I think I went away from working. +[3887.00 --> 3888.00] Anyway. +[3888.00 --> 3889.00] Okay. +[3889.00 --> 3890.00] Fine. +[3890.00 --> 3891.00] Just saying. +[3891.00 --> 3892.00] Yeah. +[3892.00 --> 3893.00] They don't really need to see it. +[3893.00 --> 3896.00] Palmer from, from Oculus, the like lead guy is saying that he wants to see stuff like +[3896.00 --> 3899.00] Hearthstone VR, FIFA VR, and Sims VR. +[3899.00 --> 3901.00] And when I read that, I was like, oh, that's kind of weird. +[3901.00 --> 3903.00] And then I sat there and thought about it for a while. +[3903.00 --> 3906.00] And I was like, wow, I really want those in VR experiences. +[3906.00 --> 3909.00] FIFA VR would be amazing. +[3909.00 --> 3912.00] I mean, sports games will never be the same. +[3912.00 --> 3917.00] I mean, to me, sports games have been seriously stunted by the camera. +[3917.00 --> 3918.00] Yeah. +[3918.00 --> 3921.00] The experience is destroyed by the camera. +[3921.00 --> 3922.00] You gotta be in the show. +[3922.00 --> 3924.00] You gotta be on the field. +[3924.00 --> 3925.00] That is the future. +[3925.00 --> 3926.00] And okay. +[3926.00 --> 3927.00] Okay. +[3927.00 --> 3928.00] I think that's why two things. +[3928.00 --> 3933.00] Number one is the lack of, of proper team against team multiplayer. +[3933.00 --> 3934.00] Locally even. +[3934.00 --> 3938.00] Like, like the, the fact that it's like, okay, well, you can have this number of controllers. +[3938.00 --> 3939.00] It's like, okay. +[3939.00 --> 3940.00] Yeah. +[3940.00 --> 3941.00] Yeah. +[3941.00 --> 3942.00] And like, have them all, yeah, that would be really cool. +[3942.00 --> 3952.00] And have them all in the field with literally like, virtually zero latency and like, actually +[3952.00 --> 3953.00] play the game. +[3953.00 --> 3954.00] Even if you're, even if you're stuck with a controller. +[3954.00 --> 3956.00] If you can like, look around and see the pass and kind of go, okay. +[3956.00 --> 3957.00] I mean, it's not going to be perfect. +[3957.00 --> 3958.00] We're not there yet. +[3958.00 --> 3964.00] But if you could kind of like, look up and go like, you know, angle, angle, header, stuff +[3964.00 --> 3965.00] like that. +[3965.00 --> 3967.00] Oh, how amazing is that going to be? +[3967.00 --> 3968.00] That would be really cool. +[3968.00 --> 3970.00] And then like, even hearst, even just hearthstone VR. +[3970.00 --> 3974.00] You can just chill and it, it'll feel like you're actually playing a card game. +[3974.00 --> 3977.00] And like, how they lay out the board for hearthstone. +[3977.00 --> 3978.00] Yeah. +[3978.00 --> 3981.00] How there's all the interactive stuff around it would make it actually really cool. +[3981.00 --> 3984.00] I think you could cheat with like, head tracking. +[3984.00 --> 3985.00] Oh! +[3985.00 --> 3993.00] That could add a whole new level to like, online card games. +[3993.00 --> 3995.00] It's like keeping your cards away from the other. +[3995.00 --> 3998.00] So you actually have to like, manage your controller. +[3998.00 --> 4000.00] You could play in cheat enabled servers or something. +[4000.00 --> 4006.00] And like, it could be a game of like, who can see each other's cards. +[4006.00 --> 4007.00] Okay. +[4007.00 --> 4008.00] Maybe that's stupid. +[4008.00 --> 4009.00] That'd be pretty dumb. +[4009.00 --> 4010.00] Yeah. +[4010.00 --> 4011.00] Whatever. +[4011.00 --> 4012.00] Screw you. +[4012.00 --> 4013.00] It's funny anyways. +[4013.00 --> 4018.00] I don't know what you guys are going to, what controllers you guys are going to be using on your, on your Steam machines. +[4018.00 --> 4022.00] And I think that for some reason, this is being stupid. +[4022.00 --> 4023.00] Oh, there you go. +[4023.00 --> 4025.00] So, it's still not quite right, is it? +[4025.00 --> 4027.00] Oh, I see what you're talking about. +[4027.00 --> 4028.00] Uh, good enough. +[4028.00 --> 4029.00] Okay. +[4029.00 --> 4030.00] Okay. +[4030.00 --> 4031.00] Alright. +[4031.00 --> 4034.00] So, something, something, built on tears. +[4034.00 --> 4035.00] I say bleeping awesome. +[4035.00 --> 4036.00] That's not... +[4036.00 --> 4037.00] Oh God. +[4037.00 --> 4038.00] I don't actually understand. +[4038.00 --> 4039.00] Can we move on? +[4039.00 --> 4040.00] That was from way earlier. +[4040.00 --> 4041.00] I know, but I just don't understand. +[4041.00 --> 4044.00] No, I said bleeping awesome about like, VR. +[4044.00 --> 4045.00] Yeah, I know. +[4045.00 --> 4048.00] He's saying, he's saying you censored that, but then didn't censor the other thing. +[4048.00 --> 4049.00] What? +[4049.00 --> 4051.00] The word porn isn't a swear word. +[4051.00 --> 4053.00] No, but it's the context. +[4053.00 --> 4054.00] Context of what? +[4054.00 --> 4056.00] I'm not even gonna say it, because it's terrible. +[4056.00 --> 4057.00] Oh. +[4057.00 --> 4060.00] Valve should have motion controls into the Valve controller. +[4060.00 --> 4063.00] I, I don't think it's precluded that it's not ever going to be there. +[4063.00 --> 4065.00] They might, they could always have a motion control version. +[4065.00 --> 4068.00] Oh, it would be nice if you could like, switch it on or off though. +[4068.00 --> 4069.00] Okay. +[4069.00 --> 4073.00] Dumitru is not, uh, is not impressed with the Steam controller. +[4073.00 --> 4076.00] Just wants to use DAT Xbox 360 controller. +[4076.00 --> 4078.00] Keyboard and mouse for Delons. +[4078.00 --> 4079.00] Delons. +[4079.00 --> 4081.00] I have, I have never, I always have trouble with that. +[4081.00 --> 4083.00] Um, Xbox controller. +[4083.00 --> 4084.00] Don't like touchpads? +[4084.00 --> 4086.00] Haven't held it yet though, so opinion could change. +[4086.00 --> 4087.00] Fair enough. +[4087.00 --> 4089.00] Ashley figures, need to try the Steam controller to decide. +[4089.00 --> 4091.00] I play a lot of Civ 5 though. +[4091.00 --> 4092.00] So there you go. +[4092.00 --> 4096.00] And that's like specifically one of the games that I think would be really good for it. +[4096.00 --> 4097.00] Yeah. +[4097.00 --> 4103.00] Um, Alan figures, Xbox One if possible, but otherwise Xbox 360 probably would prefer a DualShock. +[4103.00 --> 4104.00] Yup. +[4104.00 --> 4105.00] Okay. +[4105.00 --> 4106.00] Use Xbox 360. +[4106.00 --> 4110.00] Will we at some point start to forget stand alone GPUs due to APUs? +[4110.00 --> 4111.00] We're a long way away from that. +[4111.00 --> 4112.00] Yeah. +[4112.00 --> 4113.00] No desktop. +[4113.00 --> 4115.00] Desktop's not going anywhere for a bit. +[4115.00 --> 4117.00] Portal 2 is a two player local game. +[4117.00 --> 4118.00] Yeah, that's true. +[4118.00 --> 4121.00] But Portal 2, um, gives her motion sickness. +[4121.00 --> 4124.00] Like Portal, going through portals makes her nauseated. +[4124.00 --> 4127.00] So, like, I'm just saying there aren't many options. +[4127.00 --> 4129.00] There's no like, poi poi. +[4129.00 --> 4132.00] You know, where it's just like, here's like a goofy little like party game style thing. +[4132.00 --> 4139.00] And that, that's something that we're gonna have to see happen on Steam for it to become a console. +[4139.00 --> 4148.00] And actually it's funny that, that leads into one of the other things that came out of Dev Days, which was that Valve has no intentions of creating their own killer app for Steam OS. +[4148.00 --> 4152.00] Like, Half-Life 3 only on Steam OS is not gonna happen. +[4152.00 --> 4161.00] They want their games across platforms and they will encourage even developers that are making games for Steam OS to make their games, um, available on as many platforms as possible. +[4161.00 --> 4164.00] But what they're also saying is that there could be exclusives. +[4164.00 --> 4167.00] And that seemed like, you know, a hint. +[4167.00 --> 4171.00] Linus just essentially announced Half-Life 3 confirmed all platforms. +[4171.00 --> 4173.00] All platforms, yeah. Exactly. +[4174.00 --> 4177.00] It's like, Gabe N will be joining us on the stream next week to, you know. +[4177.00 --> 4180.00] To announce Half-Life 3 on the, on the WAN show. +[4180.00 --> 4181.00] We're actually not worthy, so. +[4181.00 --> 4182.00] Yeah, whatever. +[4182.00 --> 4183.00] Not so much. +[4183.00 --> 4186.00] Uh, keyboard and mouse right here. Guitar Hero controller. +[4186.00 --> 4188.00] Okay, Curtis. To play Hearthstone. +[4188.00 --> 4190.00] Okay, there's no reason you couldn't. +[4190.00 --> 4191.00] Yeah, there is. +[4191.00 --> 4192.00] Yeah, there is. +[4192.00 --> 4193.00] Why not? +[4193.00 --> 4194.00] How would you select cards? +[4194.00 --> 4196.00] There's gotta be a way to like... +[4196.00 --> 4197.00] Unless you like, yeah, you could use the... +[4197.00 --> 4199.00] Unless you strummed and then like pressed A to select it. +[4199.00 --> 4200.00] Yeah. +[4200.00 --> 4201.00] Oh, there's gotta be a way to do it. +[4201.00 --> 4202.00] There's gotta be a way to... +[4202.00 --> 4204.00] I played Gears of War with the guitar. +[4204.00 --> 4205.00] Yeah. +[4205.00 --> 4207.00] So it's basically an Xbox 360 controller, so you... +[4207.00 --> 4209.00] Did I ever tell you about that? +[4209.00 --> 4212.00] I used Whammy Bar to turn, but then I could only turn in one direction. +[4212.00 --> 4216.00] So if someone was like, just outside my aimer on one side, I had to do a full turn around. +[4217.00 --> 4218.00] I made it through the first mission though. +[4218.00 --> 4223.00] It's like, how to create an FPS controller that's actually worse than the Wiimote. +[4223.00 --> 4225.00] Ha ha ha. +[4225.00 --> 4229.00] Keyboard mouse, PS3, PS3 or 4, love the DualShock. +[4229.00 --> 4234.00] 360, 6 axis, 360, 360, 360, 360. +[4234.00 --> 4235.00] Controller that... +[4235.00 --> 4237.00] Whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened to it? +[4237.00 --> 4238.00] Baaah! +[4239.00 --> 4242.00] Controller that I use for everything, which is Xbox. +[4243.00 --> 4244.00] Um, okay. +[4244.00 --> 4246.00] Looks like a lot of Xbox 360 controller. +[4246.00 --> 4247.00] Looks like a lot of Xbox 360 controller. +[4247.00 --> 4248.00] Which is kind of what I expected. +[4248.00 --> 4249.00] I kind of love the Xbox 360 controller. +[4249.00 --> 4250.00] Me too. +[4250.00 --> 4251.00] It's sort of awesome. +[4251.00 --> 4253.00] So there's more stuff actually. +[4253.00 --> 4254.00] If we jump to... +[4254.00 --> 4257.00] Dev got to try Valve VR. +[4257.00 --> 4258.00] Ah, yes. +[4258.00 --> 4261.00] So this is a little bit like... +[4261.00 --> 4263.00] So this was on Reddit. +[4263.00 --> 4266.00] Yeah, and it's a little bit like, oh my god, it was so awesome. +[4266.00 --> 4269.00] I almost jumped when I saw something. +[4269.00 --> 4270.00] And stuff. +[4270.00 --> 4272.00] Instead of like, actually explaining what it was more about. +[4272.00 --> 4274.00] So it's still an interesting read. +[4274.00 --> 4275.00] And I suggest you go read it. +[4275.00 --> 4277.00] But I don't think we're going to read through the whole thing right here. +[4277.00 --> 4278.00] Nope. +[4278.00 --> 4280.00] Um, because it is a lot of... +[4280.00 --> 4282.00] Like he talks about his experience with it. +[4282.00 --> 4286.00] Um, but doesn't really talk about it too much specifically. +[4286.00 --> 4287.00] And I did find it really interesting. +[4287.00 --> 4289.00] And I love the Oculus subreddit and stuff like that. +[4289.00 --> 4295.00] But, um, unless you're interested in reading people's like, oh my god, it was cool stories. +[4295.00 --> 4296.00] Some people are into that. +[4296.00 --> 4297.00] Yeah, I know. +[4297.00 --> 4299.00] I mean, that's basically all I said about it after I was done. +[4299.00 --> 4301.00] I read the whole thing and I enjoyed it. +[4301.00 --> 4304.00] I'm just saying like, don't go there with the intentions of like, +[4304.00 --> 4307.00] it has this resolution and this is how it sits on your head and blah blah blah. +[4307.00 --> 4309.00] Like it's, yeah, it's not like tech specs and stuff. +[4309.00 --> 4313.00] It's just, it's more of a dialogue of how his experience went. +[4313.00 --> 4315.00] And it sounds really freaking cool. +[4315.00 --> 4318.00] So if you're into that kind of stuff, I'd definitely go read it. +[4318.00 --> 4320.00] I'm so buying an Oculus Rift. +[4320.00 --> 4321.00] Yeah? +[4321.00 --> 4322.00] Yeah. +[4322.00 --> 4323.00] Like when they're released though. +[4323.00 --> 4324.00] Yeah. +[4324.00 --> 4325.00] Yeah, I'm not gonna buy a developer edition. +[4325.00 --> 4326.00] Have you tried mine? +[4326.00 --> 4327.00] No. +[4327.00 --> 4329.00] I've tried the developer edition though. +[4329.00 --> 4331.00] I tried it back at the Virtuix thing. +[4331.00 --> 4337.00] You, before we do our video, you should try mine so that you can compare it to the new +[4337.00 --> 4338.00] one. +[4338.00 --> 4339.00] Sure. +[4339.00 --> 4340.00] Yeah, I will. +[4340.00 --> 4341.00] I wasn't planning to be in that video. +[4341.00 --> 4342.00] I was just gonna let you do it. +[4342.00 --> 4343.00] Okay, that's fine then. +[4343.00 --> 4344.00] Yeah. +[4344.00 --> 4345.00] But, oh man, the one at CES. +[4345.00 --> 4346.00] You got to try it with Eve Valkyrie, right? +[4346.00 --> 4347.00] Yeah. +[4347.00 --> 4349.00] Or, EVR, EVR Valkyrie or whatever it's called. +[4349.00 --> 4350.00] Yeah. +[4350.00 --> 4351.00] Whatever they call it. +[4351.00 --> 4352.00] Yeah. +[4352.00 --> 4357.00] That I think is not necessarily a fair comparison unless you tried EVR on both of them. +[4357.00 --> 4360.00] Because the pixel grid isn't as noticeable in a black background. +[4360.00 --> 4361.00] Hmm. +[4361.00 --> 4364.00] And with Eve Valkyrie you're in space, so the background is usually black. +[4364.00 --> 4367.00] I don't care, because the only game I'm gonna be playing is Star Citizen anyway. +[4367.00 --> 4369.00] Yeah, I know, I know, but I'm just saying. +[4369.00 --> 4370.00] Fine, fine. +[4370.00 --> 4375.00] Because I tried the 1080p prototype at the AMD booth, not black background, could still +[4375.00 --> 4376.00] see pixel grid and stuff. +[4376.00 --> 4377.00] Oh, I'm sure you can. +[4377.00 --> 4378.00] It was better. +[4378.00 --> 4379.00] No doubt. +[4379.00 --> 4382.00] Yeah, it was definitely better, but it wasn't like, if someone was like, yes, I want to +[4382.00 --> 4385.00] buy my VR experience and I want it to be perfect now, it's not the 1080p. +[4385.00 --> 4388.00] No, I mean, Carmack said 4K is basically necessary. +[4388.00 --> 4389.00] Yeah, yeah. +[4389.00 --> 4391.00] And that was at Nvidia's G-Sync event. +[4391.00 --> 4392.00] Yep. +[4392.00 --> 4393.00] I'm just trying to reaffirm what he said. +[4393.00 --> 4394.00] I'm still buying one though. +[4394.00 --> 4395.00] Yeah. +[4395.00 --> 4396.00] Definitely buying one. +[4396.00 --> 4399.00] Well, I'm hoping that the release one will be more than 1080p, because they have not said +[4399.00 --> 4400.00] what the resolution is on Crystal Cove. +[4400.00 --> 4402.00] If they could make it to 1440p? +[4402.00 --> 4404.00] 1440p would be great. +[4404.00 --> 4409.00] There's been, of course, no one knows, but there's been like, whisper rumors about Crystal +[4409.00 --> 4410.00] Cove being 2560. +[4410.00 --> 4411.00] That's 1440p? +[4411.00 --> 4412.00] Yeah. +[4412.00 --> 4413.00] Yeah. +[4413.00 --> 4414.00] Oh, okay. +[4414.00 --> 4415.00] Just so we're on the same page. +[4415.00 --> 4416.00] Yeah. +[4416.00 --> 4418.00] It's just, I'm like, pretty stoked. +[4418.00 --> 4423.00] Because why would it, if they, if they're refusing to say anything about it, like if it was +[4423.00 --> 4427.00] 1080p, you'd think they'd be just like, yeah, we just implemented the new stuff that you can +[4427.00 --> 4430.00] see, obviously, which is the whole Crystal Cove idea, instead of resolution. +[4430.00 --> 4432.00] But they're like, no, don't talk about resolution. +[4432.00 --> 4433.00] So I hope, I hope. +[4433.00 --> 4434.00] I hope. +[4434.00 --> 4435.00] I hope too. +[4435.00 --> 4437.00] Yeah, what's next? +[4437.00 --> 4441.00] I have a really important piece of news next. +[4441.00 --> 4444.00] This was posted on the forum by Cosmos i7. +[4444.00 --> 4446.00] The Mac Pro can be used sideways. +[4446.00 --> 4449.00] I did tweet about this, or I posted it on Facebook, I think. +[4449.00 --> 4454.00] I'm actually getting a little bit more active on Facebook, so if you guys are looking for +[4454.00 --> 4460.00] more exclusive stuff, you can follow at Linus, or, not follow at Linus, you can like the Linus +[4460.00 --> 4462.00] Tech Tips page, or is it Linus Tech? +[4462.00 --> 4463.00] I don't even know. +[4463.00 --> 4464.00] See, I hardly used Facebook at all. +[4464.00 --> 4469.00] It was a miracle to me that anyone even liked me on there, because I posted no exclusive content +[4469.00 --> 4470.00] there. +[4470.00 --> 4475.00] But anyway, I have started doing that, and I made a, like a PSA about how you can, Apple +[4475.00 --> 4481.00] has said, it is okay to lay them horizontally, but it is not okay to stack them. +[4481.00 --> 4484.00] Because the exhaust from one will go into the bottom of the other one. +[4484.00 --> 4486.00] You know what, I finally saw one in person. +[4486.00 --> 4487.00] It is quiet. +[4487.00 --> 4488.00] I saw one in person too. +[4488.00 --> 4493.00] However, I still haven't encountered one that is legitimately under load in person. +[4493.00 --> 4494.00] It's so shiny. +[4494.00 --> 4495.00] It's really shiny. +[4495.00 --> 4497.00] It's like a mirrored garbage can. +[4497.00 --> 4498.00] It's kind of beautiful. +[4498.00 --> 4501.00] I'm not a huge fan of gloss. +[4501.00 --> 4502.00] But it's gloss metal. +[4502.00 --> 4504.00] Yeah, that's a good point. +[4504.00 --> 4505.00] It's not gloss in plastic. +[4505.00 --> 4509.00] See, the problem with when I saw it, and when I saw it I knew I couldn't really say a lot +[4509.00 --> 4513.00] about how it looked, because the room had so many crazy colored lights on that it was glowing +[4513.00 --> 4517.00] and I was like, okay, this is not really what it's going to look like most of the time. +[4517.00 --> 4520.00] It's like for anyone who's planning to use their Mac Pro in a disco. +[4520.00 --> 4521.00] Yeah. +[4521.00 --> 4524.00] Um, so there's a few other things. +[4524.00 --> 4527.00] They also said that if you're going to have it like that you have to like support it with +[4527.00 --> 4530.00] something, like wedge it somehow so that it's not going to roll around. +[4530.00 --> 4535.00] The kinds of things that you shouldn't have to tell people but you know, whatever. +[4535.00 --> 4536.00] No. +[4536.00 --> 4539.00] But like why did they release a thing saying you could use it horizontally anyways? +[4539.00 --> 4541.00] It's like, who cares? +[4541.00 --> 4542.00] Why? +[4542.00 --> 4543.00] I don't... +[4543.00 --> 4546.00] Are you going to make like a shelf of these things and put them all horizontally instead +[4546.00 --> 4547.00] of standing them up? +[4547.00 --> 4551.00] Like are you going to stack them like wine bottles or what exactly is the whole... +[4551.00 --> 4553.00] Inquiring minds wanted to know. +[4553.00 --> 4555.00] So there you go. +[4555.00 --> 4557.00] Inquiring minds are weird. +[4557.00 --> 4559.00] So let's talk about Tegra K1. +[4559.00 --> 4562.00] This is actually really exciting. +[4562.00 --> 4563.00] I got the opportunity. +[4563.00 --> 4565.00] Did you see it running? +[4565.00 --> 4566.00] No, and this was one of your email. +[4566.00 --> 4568.00] Oh, yes it was. +[4568.00 --> 4571.00] Um, holy balls, which is going to... +[4571.00 --> 4572.00] We're going to have to... +[4572.00 --> 4575.00] When we finally open up a t-shirt store, which I might have made some progress on. +[4575.00 --> 4576.00] Holy balls. +[4576.00 --> 4581.00] Yeah, we need a holy balls t-shirt because this thing is unbelievable. +[4581.00 --> 4585.00] So it's using Cortex-A15 cores for now. +[4585.00 --> 4589.00] So the usual 4 plus 1 low power 1 configuration. +[4589.00 --> 4593.00] And it has 192 Kepler-based CUDA cores. +[4593.00 --> 4603.00] So, I mean, NVIDIA, they dramatize the whole, well, it's the same technology as the Titan +[4603.00 --> 4606.00] supercomputer, but in a tablet. +[4606.00 --> 4608.00] And I think they sell that a little bit. +[4608.00 --> 4615.00] That doesn't change the fact that feature-wise, it actually is the same technology. +[4615.00 --> 4617.00] You will be able to run DirectX 11.2. +[4617.00 --> 4620.00] You will be able to run OpenGL. +[4620.00 --> 4622.00] You will be able to run CUDA, PhysX. +[4622.00 --> 4630.00] All the technologies that exist on a GTX Titan will exist on Tegra K1. +[4630.00 --> 4635.00] And seeing it running was kind of amazing. +[4635.00 --> 4638.00] So there were two mobile demos that really blew me away. +[4638.00 --> 4640.00] One was in Asus's... +[4640.00 --> 4642.00] What was that thing called? +[4642.00 --> 4645.00] It's like the Transformer Duet or something like that. +[4645.00 --> 4654.00] Where they were able to run Windows 8 and then with an app switch to Android and then with an app switch back to Windows 8 on the same system within about four seconds. +[4654.00 --> 4660.00] So they actually had Android games running natively on an Intel Core i5. +[4660.00 --> 4661.00] That's pretty cool. +[4661.00 --> 4663.00] Which was like stupid. +[4663.00 --> 4668.00] It's like looking around in the game, it's like butter smooth. +[4668.00 --> 4670.00] Doesn't matter. +[4670.00 --> 4671.00] That's kind of awesome. +[4671.00 --> 4672.00] So there's that. +[4672.00 --> 4675.00] But that's in like a large sort of thicker tablet form factor. +[4675.00 --> 4684.00] The other mobile thing that got me really excited was seeing Tegra K1 running both mobile games, which ran really smoothly as we'd expect, but running Unreal Engine 4. +[4684.00 --> 4698.00] It was just a room demo, but you could go around in the room and like when they zoomed in on things, you were like, holy crap, the lighting effects that they have running in here, the realistic texture of the laminate floor and the couch, and the fact that the shadows are all soft. +[4698.00 --> 4701.00] The fact that they have this running on a tablet now. +[4701.00 --> 4712.00] They actually had Tegra notes that were like engineering sample prototype Tegra notes with Tegra K1s inside, which to me means that it's probably like almost pin compatible. +[4712.00 --> 4717.00] Like we're talking about them being able to roll this out pretty quickly once they get finished silicon. +[4717.00 --> 4720.00] So the fact that they had that running on a tablet absolutely blew my mind. +[4720.00 --> 4722.00] Then they did their Faceworks demo. +[4722.00 --> 4728.00] So for those of you who haven't seen, I think the guy's name is Logan or something like that. +[4728.00 --> 4733.00] But this is Nvidia's Faceworks demo and they had this running on Tegra K1 as well. +[4733.00 --> 4735.00] Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. +[4735.00 --> 4739.00] They actually showed it at the ocean is hard. +[4739.00 --> 4744.00] Although like the Faceworks demos and stuff are all so cool, but I never really see them come out. +[4744.00 --> 4749.00] We did see this kind of stuff in, what was it, something LA. +[4749.00 --> 4750.00] LA Noire? +[4750.00 --> 4752.00] Yeah, yeah. +[4752.00 --> 4753.00] LA Noire. +[4753.00 --> 4756.00] But the issue is that this is more like a futuristic demo. +[4756.00 --> 4767.00] Like if you go back and you look at old Nvidia and ATI demos for that matter, it was a couple generations between when they could make a demo with like one character on screen. +[4767.00 --> 4768.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4768.00 --> 4771.00] And when they could actually implement it en masse in a game. +[4771.00 --> 4778.00] I mean, even looking at games like Total War series or other games like that where there's hundreds of units on screen at a time. +[4778.00 --> 4783.00] Just due to the sheer number of draw calls required, you can't put much detail on those units. +[4783.00 --> 4785.00] Although Mantle could change all of that. +[4785.00 --> 4786.00] Hopefully. +[4786.00 --> 4788.00] Actually, we saw the Oxide demo running. +[4788.00 --> 4789.00] That was really cool. +[4789.00 --> 4795.00] Where they had it running at about eight times the performance on AMD Mantle technology versus on DirectX. +[4795.00 --> 4803.00] And that was, it was a Mantle optimized demo with hundreds of spaceships and physics based projectiles and lasers being fired at each other. +[4803.00 --> 4807.00] And very, very bottlenecked by the traditional approach. +[4807.00 --> 4810.00] But it gives us some idea of the potential for the future and lots of units. +[4810.00 --> 4813.00] RTS is going to be reinvented potentially by Mantle. +[4813.00 --> 4814.00] Yeah. +[4814.00 --> 4816.00] And a lot of people were saying like, oh, that's an unrealistic situation. +[4816.00 --> 4818.00] It's like, wait till Star Citizen's out. +[4818.00 --> 4819.00] Exactly. +[4819.00 --> 4822.00] Because exactly what was happening in that demo is very possible to happen in Star Citizen. +[4822.00 --> 4825.00] And the thing is that game devs aren't stupid. +[4825.00 --> 4828.00] They're not going to make a game that nothing can run. +[4828.00 --> 4830.00] How are they going to sell the game? +[4830.00 --> 4832.00] So you could go, oh, well, there's no games that need that. +[4832.00 --> 4833.00] Of course not. +[4833.00 --> 4838.00] I mean, listen to game devs talk about technologies like Mantle and G-Sync. +[4838.00 --> 4840.00] What excites them about it? +[4840.00 --> 4852.00] The fact that they can drive the detail levels or the unit counts or whatever else it is higher while still maintaining that 30 frames per second or that 60 frames per second. +[4852.00 --> 4858.00] Or in the case of G-Sync, that 45 to whatever 60 ish frames per second target. +[4858.00 --> 4859.00] That's what's exciting about it. +[4859.00 --> 4863.00] They make the games based on the hardware that they have available to them. +[4863.00 --> 4870.00] So the fact that this technology, this FaceWorks demo is running smoothly on a Tegra K1 right now just gets me pretty excited. +[4870.00 --> 4872.00] It's actually pretty cool. +[4872.00 --> 4876.00] So we're not going to dive into the actual specs of it too much, but just the fact that it was there. +[4876.00 --> 4879.00] I mean, Shield 2 has me extremely stoked. +[4879.00 --> 4880.00] I use my Shield all the time. +[4880.00 --> 4881.00] He does. +[4881.00 --> 4891.00] And aside from an issue that I have with rolling on the buttons and them not having an actuation point that's quite high enough, it's pretty much perfect. +[4891.00 --> 4894.00] But if they could make it even faster, then thumbs up. +[4894.00 --> 4897.00] But it's like it's the first time they've made that kind of device too. +[4897.00 --> 4898.00] Yes. +[4898.00 --> 4899.00] It was a first attempt. +[4899.00 --> 4906.00] G-Sync coming to a 27 inch 1440p monitor near you in quarter two. +[4906.00 --> 4908.00] So this was posted by Dismo on the forum. +[4908.00 --> 4909.00] The original article is from Polygon. +[4909.00 --> 4913.00] The Polygon article isn't actually that detailed though, so it's nothing really special. +[4913.00 --> 4919.00] It just said that, you know, oh, well there's going to be stuff from Acer, AOC, Asus, BenQ, Philips, and Usonic. +[4919.00 --> 4927.00] You know, it's amazing to me how guys like Samsung and LG are just so aloof to technological changes. +[4927.00 --> 4931.00] They're just like, yeah, TN panels. +[4931.00 --> 4933.00] Well, LG not so much. +[4933.00 --> 4934.00] Mostly IPS. +[4934.00 --> 4938.00] But Samsung was content to use TN panels forever. +[4938.00 --> 4942.00] Just for the sake, it seems, of not cooperating with anyone on anything. +[4942.00 --> 4944.00] Like, honestly. +[4944.00 --> 4947.00] LG has been doing IPS like crazy for a while. +[4947.00 --> 4948.00] Yes, they have. +[4948.00 --> 4953.00] I guess I'm thinking back to sort of quite a while ago when IPS was still quite expensive. +[4953.00 --> 4959.00] But it just, the fact that they, well, and that's the thing, is that it's LG's technology. +[4959.00 --> 4960.00] Yeah. +[4960.00 --> 4961.00] IPS. +[4961.00 --> 4962.00] Yeah. +[4962.00 --> 4964.00] So it's like, use something else. +[4964.00 --> 4967.00] Don't be afraid of using someone else's tech. +[4967.00 --> 4972.00] So I want to use this as an opportunity to talk about G-Sync as well as FreeSync, AMD's +[4972.00 --> 4976.00] free potential in the future competitor to G-Sync. +[4976.00 --> 4982.00] So first up is all the rumors about G-Sync being TN only and 1080p only. +[4982.00 --> 4983.00] Lose them. +[4983.00 --> 4985.00] We've said that we've been saying this for a long time. +[4985.00 --> 4986.00] Yeah. +[4986.00 --> 4987.00] It's like, where did you get that? +[4987.00 --> 4988.00] Where did the information come from? +[4988.00 --> 4989.00] Stop. +[4989.00 --> 4990.00] We don't know. +[4990.00 --> 4991.00] But it's over now. +[4991.00 --> 4996.00] I have in person seen monitors running non-TN panels and monitors running higher than +[4996.00 --> 4998.00] 1080p resolutions myself. +[4998.00 --> 4999.00] Done. +[4999.00 --> 5000.00] Done conversation. +[5000.00 --> 5005.00] Asus, and this is funny to me, Asus is the only one, even though there are going to be +[5005.00 --> 5007.00] some 27 inch models, BenQ's going to have one. +[5007.00 --> 5011.00] Asus is the only one bringing a 2560x1440 monitor to market. +[5011.00 --> 5016.00] It is a TN panel, but as I said in my video from the Asus suite, it's much better looking +[5016.00 --> 5017.00] than most TN panels. +[5017.00 --> 5021.00] Something I think people forget is there's the whole TN stigma. +[5021.00 --> 5022.00] TN variance? +[5022.00 --> 5029.00] Where TN is inherently garbage and that's all there is to say about it. +[5029.00 --> 5033.00] Let me just see if I can find a reference for this. +[5033.00 --> 5037.00] You can see while you're looking, you can find a TN panel that looks like the most disgusting +[5037.00 --> 5039.00] thing you've seen in your entire life. +[5039.00 --> 5044.00] And right beside that, you can have a separate TN panel that is, you can still tell, but fairly +[5044.00 --> 5050.00] hard to differentiate between that panel and IPS unless you start looking at crazy angles +[5050.00 --> 5051.00] and stuff. +[5051.00 --> 5056.00] Like there's quite a bit of variance there in comparison to IPS where I find much less variance. +[5056.00 --> 5063.00] Alright, so Super LCD, the type of panel technology that's used in the HTC One, widely regarded +[5063.00 --> 5069.00] as an excellent display, actually is based on TN or twisted pneumatic panel types. +[5069.00 --> 5072.00] So just because something's TN doesn't mean that it's the biggest piece of garbage ever. +[5072.00 --> 5075.00] It just means it's likely that it is. +[5075.00 --> 5078.00] So the Asus monitor doesn't look as good as an IPS. +[5078.00 --> 5082.00] It doesn't look as good as a PLS, but it looks better than most of the TNs that I've seen, +[5082.00 --> 5086.00] which is kind of like what I said about the 2420 TE from BenQ. +[5086.00 --> 5088.00] So, okay, there's that. +[5088.00 --> 5091.00] And it's so baffling to me that everyone's doing 1080p designs. +[5091.00 --> 5092.00] I mean, I know it's expensive. +[5092.00 --> 5095.00] The Asus one's going to be $799, which is sort of disappointing. +[5095.00 --> 5097.00] I don't think it's that baffling. +[5097.00 --> 5099.00] I don't like it, but it makes sense. +[5099.00 --> 5101.00] I mean, I know they're costing down, but like... +[5101.00 --> 5103.00] They're costing down and they're targeting gaming. +[5103.00 --> 5110.00] But G-Sync is more about making the gameplay experience better at higher resolution with less GPU horsepower. +[5110.00 --> 5112.00] Yeah, but what are people going to buy more? +[5112.00 --> 5113.00] Yeah, I know. +[5113.00 --> 5114.00] The fast 1080p one. +[5114.00 --> 5116.00] But this one's fast too. +[5116.00 --> 5121.00] It's 2560, 1440, and then they're marketing it as 120 Hertz plus. +[5121.00 --> 5127.00] So while no one was looking, you know, I checked, and it runs at 144 Hertz. +[5127.00 --> 5129.00] So it's like, I don't know. +[5129.00 --> 5130.00] I wish everyone was doing that. +[5130.00 --> 5131.00] Anyway, it's going to be expensive. +[5131.00 --> 5137.00] G-Sync seems to be adding anywhere from $100 to like $200 to pricing. +[5137.00 --> 5139.00] I really hope that goes away soon because... +[5139.00 --> 5140.00] It probably will. +[5140.00 --> 5146.00] I want to see this technology become mainstream to the point where there's no reason to buy a monitor that doesn't have G-Sync in it. +[5146.00 --> 5149.00] Whether you have an Nvidia graphics card or an AMD graphics card. +[5149.00 --> 5154.00] And that's not going to happen as long as it's a couple hundred dollar premium in order to get your hands on one. +[5154.00 --> 5164.00] The most exciting thing I think I saw wasn't actually a production model, but it was Asus's sharp panel based 4K monitor with a G-Sync module Frankenstein to the back of it. +[5164.00 --> 5167.00] And it was running and it was awesome. +[5167.00 --> 5172.00] That is going to be the ideal setup for G-Sync. +[5172.00 --> 5182.00] High resolution, not needing to maintain that 60 frames per second or above exactly, being allowed to dip, and not really feeling that change in smoothness. +[5182.00 --> 5187.00] Because I've had a lot of people go like, well if I built a computer that was good enough, it wouldn't matter. +[5187.00 --> 5192.00] And then I do benchmarks with dual 780 Ti's like I was yesterday and watch games dip. +[5192.00 --> 5193.00] Yeah. +[5193.00 --> 5194.00] And I'm just like, come on! +[5194.00 --> 5201.00] It's funny how many people on the internet have a GTX 560 Ti that runs every game at full details. +[5201.00 --> 5205.00] Like what, on your watch display? +[5205.00 --> 5207.00] Like what resolution are you running at? +[5207.00 --> 5208.00] Or what frames are you getting? +[5208.00 --> 5214.00] Yeah, like what are you actually using to monitor this frame rate that you're supposedly having? +[5214.00 --> 5216.00] Alright, let's talk about FreeSync. +[5216.00 --> 5221.00] So G-Sync and FreeSync are sort of tightly intertwined right now. +[5221.00 --> 5242.00] This was an article on Anand Tech where Anand was actually personally shown this demo of AMD displaying a technology that looks very analogous to G-Sync and is actually based on an open VESA standard for controlling V-blank intervals, which is essentially what G-Sync is doing. +[5242.00 --> 5252.00] So you're controlling the amount of time that no signal is causing the display to change its image versus having a fixed refresh rate like 60 hertz. +[5252.00 --> 5255.00] So, okay, etc, etc, etc, etc. +[5255.00 --> 5259.00] They were showing this on two off-the-shelf notebooks actually running. +[5259.00 --> 5263.00] So this demo right here is not as elaborate as Nvidia's. +[5263.00 --> 5264.00] They just have a windmill running. +[5264.00 --> 5267.00] But they showed it actually working. +[5267.00 --> 5283.00] And there wasn't really a whole lot to say about it other than that an AMD doesn't really have any kind of a go-to-market strategy with respect to this other than that they would like to encourage panel makers to implement this technology. +[5283.00 --> 5289.00] Now the problem is that it's only on notebooks right now. +[5289.00 --> 5297.00] Now the way that notebook graphics cards interface with notebook panels is actually different from the way that a typical monitor works. +[5297.00 --> 5306.00] So they'll use something like embedded DisplayPort or they'll use a non-sort of widespread industry standard interface. +[5306.00 --> 5307.00] Like think about something like HDMI. +[5307.00 --> 5309.00] It's supposed to work on a phone. +[5309.00 --> 5316.00] It's supposed to work on a TV, on a receiver, on a graphics card, on an LCD monitor. +[5316.00 --> 5326.00] It's supposed to work on all these different things at all these different resolutions and it requires complex scalar chips in order to actually interface between whatever signal is coming in and the display itself. +[5326.00 --> 5328.00] It's not like, it's not native. +[5328.00 --> 5330.00] It's not just driving the panel directly. +[5330.00 --> 5337.00] On these notebooks, that is the kind of technology they're using to enable this and we just don't have it on desktops. +[5337.00 --> 5345.00] So while it does exist, it's very rare even on notebooks and it's implemented as more of a power saving feature than a gaming feature right now. +[5345.00 --> 5359.00] So Nvidia has basically flat out said, look, there is no scalar that we are aware of that is designed for actual monitors using actual interfaces on the desktop. +[5359.00 --> 5361.00] We'd be aware of it if there was one. +[5361.00 --> 5368.00] So we would love for the entire industry to move towards this because it's a better gaming experience. +[5368.00 --> 5384.00] In the meantime, we took it upon ourselves to build a chip, to build a scalar that replaces the scalar that was in your monitor and adds this G-Sync or V-Blank or whatever functionality you want to call it, that adds this functionality to these displays. +[5384.00 --> 5387.00] We built it, so we're going to use it. +[5387.00 --> 5388.00] We're going to leverage that. +[5388.00 --> 5393.00] But if there's an open standard in the future, then there's an open standard in the future. +[5393.00 --> 5395.00] That's all there is to it. +[5395.00 --> 5397.00] So there you go guys. +[5397.00 --> 5400.00] AMD kind of showed this kind of behind closed doors. +[5400.00 --> 5401.00] They didn't show it to everyone. +[5401.00 --> 5403.00] It wasn't part of their presentation. +[5403.00 --> 5407.00] They showed it on a notebook and I don't think Nvidia is taking it too seriously right now. +[5407.00 --> 5411.00] A few years from now, I'd love to see it implemented across the board. +[5411.00 --> 5412.00] This is what AMD does though. +[5412.00 --> 5414.00] But this is what AMD does, yes. +[5414.00 --> 5418.00] So they make something and they're like, hopefully everyone just does stuff. +[5418.00 --> 5419.00] Or they don't make it. +[5419.00 --> 5420.00] I mean, they didn't make this. +[5420.00 --> 5421.00] Yeah, but like... +[5421.00 --> 5424.00] I mean, the feature's been enabled on their GPUs, but they didn't make it. +[5424.00 --> 5425.00] They just... +[5425.00 --> 5427.00] And I mean, there's a couple things. +[5427.00 --> 5438.00] I mean, Nvidia pushes things forward, whether it's something that doesn't end up mattering to me personally, like 3D Vision, or whether it's something that matters to me a lot, like G-Sync. +[5438.00 --> 5443.00] Nvidia takes the technology, they build a solution around it, and then they deliver it to the market. +[5443.00 --> 5449.00] AMD's implementation of 3D, whether you believe 3D matters or not, for me, not so much, was terrible. +[5449.00 --> 5450.00] It was unusable. +[5450.00 --> 5452.00] We tried to do videos about it. +[5452.00 --> 5453.00] It was unusable. +[5453.00 --> 5454.00] It was. +[5454.00 --> 5456.00] Open standard this, open standard that. +[5456.00 --> 5457.00] You know what? +[5457.00 --> 5462.00] Sometimes that's just another way of saying, we didn't have the resources or the time, or we didn't think it was important enough to develop it. +[5462.00 --> 5465.00] So we're just going to like tack our name on this other thing. +[5465.00 --> 5466.00] Not always. +[5466.00 --> 5467.00] Not always. +[5467.00 --> 5468.00] I know. +[5468.00 --> 5475.00] But sometimes, that's just another way of saying, we couldn't be arsed to build it, so we just like found this thing that might sort of work. +[5475.00 --> 5477.00] I don't know, whatever. +[5477.00 --> 5478.00] Because that's what happened. +[5478.00 --> 5479.00] Yeah. +[5479.00 --> 5480.00] With their stereo 3D gaming. +[5480.00 --> 5481.00] I'm just saying, not always. +[5481.00 --> 5482.00] Because like HSA, they kind of... +[5482.00 --> 5483.00] That's a totally different thing. +[5483.00 --> 5484.00] I know. +[5484.00 --> 5485.00] Yeah. +[5485.00 --> 5486.00] But I'm just trying to make sure... +[5486.00 --> 5487.00] Yep. +[5487.00 --> 5490.00] HSA, they're building the hardware for, and it's extremely exciting as well. +[5490.00 --> 5492.00] Things are changing so fast. +[5492.00 --> 5493.00] So, I'm talking about things changing super fast. +[5493.00 --> 5494.00] Edison. +[5494.00 --> 5499.00] I wanted to do an interview for this actually, but the interview ended up being... +[5499.00 --> 5500.00] We got like a pretty awesome developer guy. +[5500.00 --> 5501.00] Yeah. +[5501.00 --> 5506.00] But he had a camera lock up a little bit, and then he ended up dropping Edison on the carpet +[5506.00 --> 5508.00] while we were having our interview and stuff. +[5508.00 --> 5511.00] So, that interview is not coming out. +[5511.00 --> 5515.00] But I was super stoked by Edison because I've been really interested in stuff like Qubitrucks +[5515.00 --> 5521.00] and Arduinos and their, I think it's called Galileo, Intel's Galileo, and stuff like that. +[5521.00 --> 5526.00] And this is making it so that stuff that people create with those things can be actually turned +[5526.00 --> 5530.00] into very easily marketable devices eventually. +[5530.00 --> 5535.00] Because the idea is that you can kind of develop on one of those boards that are easy to mess around +[5535.00 --> 5539.00] with and then port down to an Edison, make a product, and sell it. +[5539.00 --> 5540.00] Which is actually really cool. +[5540.00 --> 5548.00] So, how you control it, it's a dual core core processor that runs at 400 megahertz, supports +[5548.00 --> 5551.00] Bluetooth low energy and Wi-Fi on the board. +[5551.00 --> 5553.00] It's x86 which is actually really cool. +[5553.00 --> 5554.00] That's crazy. +[5554.00 --> 5556.00] And you can control it by powering it some way. +[5556.00 --> 5560.00] So, say you plug it into your computer through a SD card slot. +[5560.00 --> 5562.00] You can SSH into it, which is just secure shell. +[5562.00 --> 5568.00] So, you open a little, like some program like Putty or something that you can use to SSH into things. +[5568.00 --> 5569.00] And then control it that way. +[5569.00 --> 5573.00] Which is actually just really simple. +[5573.00 --> 5575.00] Yeah, and the applications for this are endless. +[5575.00 --> 5579.00] I mean, one of the examples that was in the Verge's article that I had up on the screen a moment ago +[5579.00 --> 5584.00] was the Mimo Baby Monitor, which is a onesie that tells you useful information about the baby. +[5584.00 --> 5589.00] And they were talking about, well, you know, you could have it send information to, like +[5589.00 --> 5591.00] this could be Edison powered. +[5591.00 --> 5592.00] It was. +[5592.00 --> 5593.00] It was there. +[5593.00 --> 5594.00] Yes. +[5594.00 --> 5595.00] I saw it. +[5595.00 --> 5596.00] This one was there. +[5596.00 --> 5599.00] And it could do things like, you know, send notifications to something as innocuous as +[5599.00 --> 5600.00] a coffee mug. +[5600.00 --> 5603.00] Light turns red to tell you that the baby is upset. +[5603.00 --> 5604.00] Or something like that. +[5604.00 --> 5606.00] It's like, holy crap, this is amazing. +[5606.00 --> 5611.00] I mean, when everything is connected, you know, I mean, smart TVs I think are just like stupid +[5611.00 --> 5612.00] right now. +[5612.00 --> 5613.00] Yeah. +[5613.00 --> 5617.00] But when your smart TV, when the makers actually get their heads out of their butts and figure +[5617.00 --> 5622.00] out that they have to make it integrate with other things as opposed to trying to make the +[5622.00 --> 5623.00] TV the center. +[5623.00 --> 5624.00] Yeah. +[5624.00 --> 5625.00] That's the problem right now. +[5625.00 --> 5629.00] Anyway, when they figure out how to give you smart controllable LED indicators on the +[5629.00 --> 5630.00] top of the display. +[5630.00 --> 5633.00] So there could be a flashing red indicator that your baby woke up and is upset. +[5633.00 --> 5634.00] Yeah. +[5634.00 --> 5638.00] Or there could be like a flashing red indicator that your door just got opened. +[5638.00 --> 5641.00] I mean, that, that, that is, that is the future. +[5641.00 --> 5644.00] And things like Edison and the Quark processor are going to make that possible. +[5644.00 --> 5647.00] I mean, the Quark processor is an engineering marvel. +[5647.00 --> 5653.00] I mean, we were amazed by the first Atom, you know, the low power tiny devices that it enabled. +[5653.00 --> 5658.00] Edison or Quark cores are one fifth the size and one tenth the power of an Atom core. +[5658.00 --> 5660.00] Now performance is not the same, but. +[5660.00 --> 5663.00] I was wondering, I was actually wondering why you put that in there. +[5663.00 --> 5665.00] Cause I was like, they're completely different classes of products. +[5665.00 --> 5666.00] I know they are. +[5666.00 --> 5667.00] Oh yeah, I know they are. +[5667.00 --> 5672.00] It's just the fact that we have x86 processors in this kind of a power envelope was something +[5672.00 --> 5679.00] that five years ago, eight years ago when Pentium D and Netburst were king. +[5679.00 --> 5681.00] We were kind of, that must've been like 10 years ago. +[5681.00 --> 5682.00] I'm getting old. +[5682.00 --> 5683.00] Yeah. +[5683.00 --> 5687.00] Anyway, back when Netburst was the king, we were kind of sitting here going, oh, x86 isn't +[5687.00 --> 5688.00] scalable. +[5688.00 --> 5690.00] Intel figured it out. +[5690.00 --> 5691.00] Apparently. +[5691.00 --> 5695.00] Uh, it's even, when I heard the announcement before I got to the Intel booth, I didn't +[5695.00 --> 5698.00] actually realize, I thought people were like, yeah, it's almost the size of an SD card. +[5698.00 --> 5701.00] No, it's actually, you can like plug it into an SD card slot. +[5701.00 --> 5702.00] That's amazing. +[5702.00 --> 5703.00] It's the same thing, which is insane. +[5703.00 --> 5706.00] Alright, so we're going to have to start blowing through these. +[5706.00 --> 5709.00] Asus has a 4K monitor coming for $799. +[5709.00 --> 5711.00] Dell has a 4K monitor coming for $699. +[5711.00 --> 5713.00] They both use TN panels. +[5713.00 --> 5718.00] I have not had an opportunity to see the Asus one, but I have seen the Dell one and I can +[5718.00 --> 5720.00] tell you guys, it is not a crap TN panel. +[5720.00 --> 5721.00] Did you see it at CES? +[5721.00 --> 5722.00] Yeah. +[5722.00 --> 5723.00] Oh, cool. +[5723.00 --> 5729.00] I saw it in like the secret back room where I also saw the Lenovo Y50. +[5729.00 --> 5734.00] And I also saw, I saw, um, Dell's 32 inch 4K. +[5734.00 --> 5735.00] Oh. +[5735.00 --> 5738.00] But yeah, that was the notebook with the 4K display. +[5738.00 --> 5739.00] Oh, okay. +[5739.00 --> 5740.00] Yeah. +[5740.00 --> 5743.00] And oh man, there was a, there's, and apparently they had put away some of the really cool stuff +[5743.00 --> 5744.00] before I got there. +[5744.00 --> 5745.00] No. +[5745.00 --> 5746.00] Like the NDA stuff. +[5746.00 --> 5747.00] No. +[5747.00 --> 5749.00] And I was like, you ball sacks. +[5749.00 --> 5751.00] Uh, so next up, are you done? +[5751.00 --> 5752.00] Yeah. +[5752.00 --> 5753.00] Yeah. +[5753.00 --> 5754.00] I was like, I'm going to go to the new headquarters. +[5754.00 --> 5758.00] So it's going to cost around 204 million us dollars or 16.5 billion yen. +[5758.00 --> 5760.00] They'll have a 1500 person capacity. +[5760.00 --> 5765.00] And the reason for this is to bring together their console and handheld teams, which were +[5765.00 --> 5767.00] in separate buildings before. +[5767.00 --> 5771.00] So they're not really saying exactly what they plan to come out of it, but it's not going +[5771.00 --> 5772.00] to be ready for a little while. +[5772.00 --> 5774.00] And this, they've needed this for a long time. +[5774.00 --> 5776.00] Well, you look at something like Wii U. +[5776.00 --> 5778.00] It's like, why does that not work with 3DS? +[5778.00 --> 5779.00] Yes. +[5779.00 --> 5780.00] Yes. +[5780.00 --> 5782.00] And you kind of go, where can Nintendo go with this technology? +[5782.00 --> 5788.00] I mean, Nintendo, there's always this talk about how dead Nintendo is or how not dead Nintendo. +[5788.00 --> 5791.00] Nintendo is so far away from being down for the count. +[5791.00 --> 5798.00] I mean, they are, this company has a culture of innovation. +[5798.00 --> 5805.00] They have gone from playing cards to being a leader in gaming technology. +[5805.00 --> 5808.00] And sometimes they're not in the lead. +[5808.00 --> 5811.00] But you don't necessarily have to be the first to be a leader. +[5811.00 --> 5813.00] There are plenty of followers. +[5813.00 --> 5814.00] Yep. +[5814.00 --> 5816.00] And then I'm sure you'll jump all over this. +[5816.00 --> 5817.00] I ordered one. +[5817.00 --> 5818.00] Actually, I ordered two. +[5818.00 --> 5820.00] So I'm going to be doing an unboxing. +[5820.00 --> 5821.00] I'll be showing you guys both colors. +[5821.00 --> 5823.00] I'll be doing a review. +[5823.00 --> 5828.00] I'm extremely excited for the new Pebble Steel with Corning Gorilla Glass, which I'm +[5828.00 --> 5829.00] a huge fanboy over. +[5829.00 --> 5831.00] It comes with metal and leather straps. +[5831.00 --> 5834.00] It's compatible with all the Pebble apps that you had before. +[5834.00 --> 5836.00] And it has a tri-color LED. +[5836.00 --> 5837.00] $249.99. +[5837.00 --> 5841.00] Is it worth $250 compared to the Qualcomm Talk? +[5841.00 --> 5843.00] Well, I have one of those coming too. +[5843.00 --> 5845.00] So I'll let y'all know. +[5845.00 --> 5846.00] You said you got both colors? +[5846.00 --> 5847.00] Yeah, I kind of did. +[5847.00 --> 5848.00] What do you mean by both colors? +[5848.00 --> 5850.00] There's a black one and a silver one. +[5850.00 --> 5852.00] But don't they have interchangeable faces? +[5852.00 --> 5853.00] Maybe. +[5853.00 --> 5854.00] I don't care. +[5854.00 --> 5855.00] Oh, they do. +[5855.00 --> 5856.00] I don't care. +[5856.00 --> 5857.00] Yvonne wants a Pebble anyway. +[5857.00 --> 5858.00] Okay. +[5858.00 --> 5859.00] I was like, what? +[5859.00 --> 5861.00] I am so stoked! +[5861.00 --> 5868.00] So there's a keyboard company that I think it attaches somehow to an iPhone called Typo +[5868.00 --> 5869.00] Keyboard. +[5869.00 --> 5870.00] Attaches somehow. +[5870.00 --> 5871.00] Okay. +[5871.00 --> 5872.00] Why don't I explain this? +[5872.00 --> 5876.00] This is posted by the Point Blank on the forum and the original article is from CBC. +[5876.00 --> 5879.00] It's not really the part that matters. +[5879.00 --> 5880.00] And their website. +[5880.00 --> 5883.00] Oh, come on, CBC. +[5883.00 --> 5884.00] Okay. +[5884.00 --> 5885.00] Skip to main content. +[5885.00 --> 5886.00] There we go. +[5886.00 --> 5887.00] Wow. +[5887.00 --> 5888.00] Okay. +[5888.00 --> 5890.00] So the way it attaches is it's basically like a phone case that adds a keyboard to the very +[5890.00 --> 5891.00] bottom. +[5891.00 --> 5895.00] So Typo's whole thing is that it frees up this much screen space to look at your screen +[5895.00 --> 5899.00] and your email and you can have your keyboard off screen. +[5899.00 --> 5900.00] Okay. +[5900.00 --> 5901.00] Go ahead. +[5901.00 --> 5906.00] It looks exactly like a Blackberry keyboard all the way down to how the key caps are shaped. +[5906.00 --> 5911.00] So Blackberry was not exactly impressed and they have a quote saying, this is a blatant +[5911.00 --> 5916.00] infringement against Blackberry iconic keyboard and we will vigorously protect our intellectual +[5916.00 --> 5920.00] property against any company that attempts to copy our unique design. +[5920.00 --> 5926.00] We are flattered by the desire to graft our keyboard onto other smartphones but will not +[5926.00 --> 5932.00] tolerate such activity without fair compensation for using our intellectual property and our technological +[5932.00 --> 5933.00] innovations. +[5933.00 --> 5936.00] Also known as, oh God, we need money, please give us money. +[5936.00 --> 5938.00] It does look pretty similar. +[5938.00 --> 5939.00] It's the same damn thing. +[5939.00 --> 5941.00] I mean, look at it. +[5941.00 --> 5944.00] If someone just showed me like here. +[5944.00 --> 5945.00] If they cut off the screw. +[5945.00 --> 5946.00] Yeah. +[5946.00 --> 5948.00] If I just went like this, what phone is that? +[5948.00 --> 5949.00] Who made it? +[5949.00 --> 5950.00] Right? +[5950.00 --> 5951.00] Like... +[5951.00 --> 5952.00] Yeah, no, I agree. +[5952.00 --> 5953.00] And like I'm... +[5953.00 --> 5954.00] So here's the Blackberry Q10. +[5954.00 --> 5956.00] I'm behind Blackberry too. +[5956.00 --> 5957.00] They're right. +[5957.00 --> 5958.00] They're right. +[5958.00 --> 5959.00] It's kind of funny. +[5959.00 --> 5961.00] They're probably super stoked that this happened. +[5961.00 --> 5964.00] Yeah, but I don't think these typo guys are going to have a lot of money anyway, so... +[5964.00 --> 5965.00] No. +[5965.00 --> 5971.00] They'll probably just implode or they'll start giving bits of their revenue gains to Blackberry. +[5971.00 --> 5974.00] T-Mobile's Uncarrier event was amazing. +[5974.00 --> 5975.00] We didn't see it, but... +[5975.00 --> 5976.00] He didn't really see anything new though. +[5976.00 --> 5977.00] Well, he did. +[5977.00 --> 5978.00] But we all knew this. +[5978.00 --> 5979.00] We all knew it was... +[5979.00 --> 5980.00] Well, we all speculated it was coming. +[5980.00 --> 5981.00] To 100% pinpoint accuracy. +[5981.00 --> 5982.00] Yes. +[5982.00 --> 5983.00] Well, come on. +[5983.00 --> 5986.00] The official announcement is still better than the speculation. +[5986.00 --> 5988.00] So this was posted on a non-tech. +[5988.00 --> 5999.00] They had a live blog from the event, but basically, CEO came up and was like, look, you want to switch to T-Mobile, but you're locked into a contract. +[5999.00 --> 6008.00] We'll give you up to $350 per phone line that you change over up to five lines. +[6008.00 --> 6018.00] So we're talking about $1850 of cash money that they will... +[6018.00 --> 6020.00] Like, I think there was an example of like... +[6020.00 --> 6021.00] It was really snarky. +[6021.00 --> 6023.00] It was a really snarky presentation. +[6023.00 --> 6024.00] Oh, God, yeah. +[6024.00 --> 6028.00] But it was like, yeah, here's the letter that will like write to them on your behalf and the check. +[6028.00 --> 6031.00] Like, they'll send a check to their competitor to take their customer. +[6031.00 --> 6032.00] Wow! +[6032.00 --> 6033.00] You're awesome. +[6033.00 --> 6034.00] Aggressive. +[6034.00 --> 6035.00] Aggressive. +[6035.00 --> 6036.00] And, uh... +[6036.00 --> 6037.00] Well, he was... +[6037.00 --> 6038.00] Did you see the... +[6038.00 --> 6041.00] After a live event at all, did you see any part of it? +[6041.00 --> 6044.00] There was Macklemore music playing as people walked in. +[6044.00 --> 6045.00] I'd heard about that. +[6045.00 --> 6049.00] And then he had like a, why'd you throw me out of the, I just wanted to see Macklemore shirt. +[6049.00 --> 6050.00] Yeah. +[6050.00 --> 6051.00] He didn't wear it, but he had a shirt there. +[6051.00 --> 6053.00] Because AT&T kicked him out of the Macklemore concert. +[6053.00 --> 6056.00] And he was just like, oh, I just want to go. +[6056.00 --> 6060.00] And he even apparently told the people as they were kicking him out, he's like, you're just helping me. +[6060.00 --> 6061.00] Yeah. +[6061.00 --> 6064.00] He's like, I just want to stay here and listen to music. +[6064.00 --> 6066.00] If you kick me out, it's just going to be worse for you. +[6066.00 --> 6068.00] Because I'm just going to throw it in your face. +[6068.00 --> 6069.00] And he did. +[6069.00 --> 6070.00] And he really did. +[6070.00 --> 6071.00] Really, really did. +[6071.00 --> 6074.00] And he was pulling up stuff during the event. +[6074.00 --> 6076.00] He was like, you know what? +[6076.00 --> 6081.00] I think it's AT&T that advertises that they have the fastest LTE network in the country. +[6081.00 --> 6084.00] And he's like, well, here's some speed test data. +[6084.00 --> 6087.00] So, I'm going to be sending them a cease and desist. +[6087.00 --> 6091.00] We are not going to be allowed to say that anymore because we're faster on average. +[6091.00 --> 6092.00] Yep. +[6092.00 --> 6093.00] And it was by a fairly sizable amount. +[6093.00 --> 6095.00] Yeah, it wasn't within margin of error. +[6095.00 --> 6096.00] No. +[6096.00 --> 6097.00] So, there you go. +[6097.00 --> 6101.00] They had a really cool video where someone went to Europe or something and was using their +[6101.00 --> 6104.00] smartphone and used like 1,750 megabytes of data. +[6104.00 --> 6107.00] And then had like a 70 something thousand dollar bill. +[6107.00 --> 6111.00] And then, I don't even know if it actually happened but then there's this video of him like jumping out of a, +[6111.00 --> 6115.00] a, like secure bank truck thing and trying to give them one of those ginormous... +[6115.00 --> 6117.00] You don't know if that actually happened. +[6117.00 --> 6119.00] I can tell you right now, that didn't actually happen. +[6119.00 --> 6120.00] No, I'm just... +[6120.00 --> 6121.00] Oh, okay. +[6121.00 --> 6122.00] What? +[6122.00 --> 6123.00] What the hell, man? +[6123.00 --> 6125.00] I thought you thought that might have actually happened. +[6125.00 --> 6126.00] No! +[6126.00 --> 6127.00] I was like... +[6127.00 --> 6130.00] Okay, anyways, he goes to the AT&T store and is like, do you guys accept checks? +[6130.00 --> 6133.00] And has this like giant, those like giveaway check size things. +[6133.00 --> 6134.00] Yeah. +[6134.00 --> 6135.00] I'm trying to give it to them. +[6135.00 --> 6136.00] It's pretty funny. +[6136.00 --> 6137.00] Um... +[6137.00 --> 6139.00] That was actually, it was, it was, it was actually really interesting. +[6139.00 --> 6143.00] A lot of those things, I just kind of drone through it and skip hoping that I'll find something +[6143.00 --> 6147.00] interesting but that one was fairly interesting to sit through and watch. +[6147.00 --> 6155.00] So, I, next, SimCity goes offline which, like, reading the thing you can tell all of the relief +[6155.00 --> 6156.00] in this guy's post. +[6156.00 --> 6157.00] Like, he's so stoked. +[6157.00 --> 6161.00] I have wanted to say these words for quite some time. +[6161.00 --> 6162.00] I have to die. +[6162.00 --> 6164.00] So, my apologies if I didn't take time to say Happy New Year first. +[6164.00 --> 6165.00] Yeah. +[6165.00 --> 6168.00] Cause he's just like, ugh, please God. +[6168.00 --> 6171.00] So, they're opening offline so you can have single player campaigns. +[6171.00 --> 6173.00] Um, and they're opening modding. +[6173.00 --> 6174.00] Yay! +[6174.00 --> 6176.00] Which are two things that they needed like pretty hard for. +[6176.00 --> 6179.00] Two things that SimCity should not have ever existed without. +[6179.00 --> 6180.00] Yep. +[6180.00 --> 6185.00] So, the, the modding clause is, is a little bit more heavy than other modding clauses that +[6185.00 --> 6186.00] I've seen. +[6186.00 --> 6190.00] So, there's guidelines like, uh, you, you can't make it so the mods are purchased. +[6190.00 --> 6193.00] Although, if you have it so you have some website or something like that, they're not +[6193.00 --> 6195.00] going to disallow you from having a donate button. +[6195.00 --> 6199.00] Uh, but you can't have a donate button within the, uh, within the mod or anything like that. +[6199.00 --> 6201.00] That is so ass backwards. +[6201.00 --> 6205.00] And that is exactly the kind of thing that Valve at their developer conference is like, +[6205.00 --> 6206.00] Yeah. +[6206.00 --> 6209.00] Yeah, anyone thinking about it not this way isn't basically wrong. +[6209.00 --> 6212.00] Yup, which I find it hilarious that these new items came out at the same time. +[6212.00 --> 6217.00] Um, if, if you make any of it, it becomes EA's property. +[6217.00 --> 6220.00] They're able to advertise it and blast it out in any way they want. +[6220.00 --> 6222.00] And they can use your name anywhere on it that they want. +[6222.00 --> 6223.00] That's kind of okay. +[6223.00 --> 6226.00] Um, yeah, no, I'm, I'm just saying like the major points. +[6226.00 --> 6227.00] I'm not, these aren't necessarily bad. +[6227.00 --> 6229.00] Um, some of them are. +[6229.00 --> 6230.00] Well, yeah. +[6230.00 --> 6232.00] Uh, da, da, da, da, da, da, da. +[6232.00 --> 6233.00] Yeah, that's about it. +[6233.00 --> 6235.00] There's, there's more, but those are the main ones that I pulled out of it. +[6235.00 --> 6241.00] So if you go to his blog and check it out, you'll be able to see the, uh, mod agreement thing. +[6241.00 --> 6245.00] Alright, so this is just gone on long enough in my mind. +[6245.00 --> 6246.00] Hilarious. +[6246.00 --> 6250.00] Alex goes high, posted on the forum, the original articles from the Verge. +[6250.00 --> 6256.00] Coinye, so if you guys recall, this is the cryptocurrency called Coinye, +[6256.00 --> 6262.00] okay, the cryptocurrency formerly known as Coinye West, responds to the Kanye complaint, +[6262.00 --> 6268.00] saying the currency has nothing to do with him, and is based on a half man, half fish hybrid. +[6268.00 --> 6275.00] Which is of course a reference to the South Park episode where Kanye likes fish sticks, +[6275.00 --> 6279.00] which, if you say it fast enough, sounds like fish dicks. +[6279.00 --> 6280.00] Oh. +[6280.00 --> 6283.00] Which is, makes him a gay fish or whatever. +[6283.00 --> 6286.00] And you know what, it wasn't, I didn't think it was a particularly funny episode. +[6286.00 --> 6291.00] Like, I thought the joke was kind of stupid, but maybe that was the point. +[6291.00 --> 6294.00] And then Kanye gets all upset in the episode. +[6294.00 --> 6298.00] Anyway, so they, they fired back saying, so they've sent their own cease and desist, +[6298.00 --> 6303.00] and they've basically said, okay, um, something, something, something. +[6303.00 --> 6307.00] The version of the Kanye West superimposed on the back of a gold coin, so they have changed it. +[6307.00 --> 6309.00] They've changed the branding. +[6309.00 --> 6316.00] And their cease and desist is basically like, uh, telling them that they can no longer claim +[6316.00 --> 6320.00] that they have anything to do with the coin, because that's hurting them, not the other way around. +[6320.00 --> 6323.00] As you can tell from our new community submitted, updated materials, +[6323.00 --> 6326.00] we make no visual or verbal reference to Kanye West, +[6326.00 --> 6329.00] but to a half man, half fish hybrid who is wearing sunglasses. +[6329.00 --> 6333.00] Again, totally separate from any resemblance to your client. +[6333.00 --> 6340.00] No further communication through private email addresses shall be made, um, +[6340.00 --> 6344.00] in any strong arms attempt to blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[6344.00 --> 6347.00] Like they're basically saying like, you have to stop trying to stop us. +[6347.00 --> 6353.00] And this is like the best publicity ever for what would have otherwise been a completely unexceptional cryptocurrency. +[6353.00 --> 6355.00] And no one would have cared. +[6355.00 --> 6357.00] No one would have cared. +[6357.00 --> 6359.00] Unbelievable. +[6359.00 --> 6360.00] Hilarious. +[6360.00 --> 6361.00] Would you buy a coin years? +[6361.00 --> 6362.00] No. +[6362.00 --> 6363.00] Yeah, me neither. +[6363.00 --> 6365.00] Uh, Google acquired Nest. +[6365.00 --> 6366.00] Nope. +[6366.00 --> 6367.00] Second one. +[6367.00 --> 6368.00] For a 3.2 billion. +[6368.00 --> 6370.00] To which I was like, really? +[6370.00 --> 6371.00] Really? +[6371.00 --> 6376.00] Like a thing that detects fires and like detects the temperature of your house is worth 3.2 billion? +[6376.00 --> 6377.00] Data mining man. +[6377.00 --> 6382.00] I mean, it was highly publicized, but geez, you'd think they could have just built their own competitor +[6382.00 --> 6383.00] for 3.2 billion. +[6383.00 --> 6384.00] 3.2. +[6384.00 --> 6385.00] 3.2 billion. +[6385.00 --> 6386.00] I mean... +[6386.00 --> 6387.00] That's crazy. +[6387.00 --> 6388.00] That's a lot of freaking money. +[6388.00 --> 6392.00] Okay, so one thing is that the Nest team stays put. +[6392.00 --> 6394.00] They're gonna keep working on Nest. +[6394.00 --> 6400.00] So it's not like they're just buying the IP and any patents and the name. +[6400.00 --> 6401.00] They're actually buying the team. +[6401.00 --> 6404.00] Which, like there has to be value in that too, because recruiting all these people that have +[6404.00 --> 6406.00] all these experiences and stuff would be really difficult. +[6406.00 --> 6407.00] Yep. +[6407.00 --> 6410.00] I mean Google Ventures had already invested tens of millions of dollars in Nest, so it's +[6410.00 --> 6414.00] not like this is, you know, completely out of nowhere. +[6414.00 --> 6420.00] There was some talk about, you know, hey, were you guys in talks with anyone else about it? +[6420.00 --> 6422.00] You know, were you talking to Apple? +[6422.00 --> 6423.00] This, that. +[6423.00 --> 6428.00] And basically, Tony Fidel said, you know, we're not gonna talk about that. +[6428.00 --> 6432.00] What we're gonna talk about is the deal that just got completed and how excited we are to +[6432.00 --> 6435.00] keep working on Nest and be a part of Google. +[6435.00 --> 6437.00] So, fascinating. +[6437.00 --> 6438.00] Would you... +[6438.00 --> 6439.00] Okay. +[6439.00 --> 6443.00] The fact that you already carry around an Android smartphone means that Google pretty +[6443.00 --> 6445.00] much already knows everything that you do. +[6445.00 --> 6446.00] Yep. +[6446.00 --> 6448.00] Are you willing to let that extend to your home? +[6448.00 --> 6451.00] Uh, I don't use Google Chrome though. +[6451.00 --> 6452.00] That's true. +[6452.00 --> 6453.00] You don't. +[6453.00 --> 6455.00] And I usually run Rooted. +[6455.00 --> 6456.00] Right. +[6456.00 --> 6457.00] You do. +[6457.00 --> 6458.00] And like CyanogenMod. +[6458.00 --> 6460.00] I'm not right now, but I usually do. +[6460.00 --> 6461.00] Right. +[6461.00 --> 6462.00] So, no, not really. +[6462.00 --> 6463.00] Okay. +[6463.00 --> 6466.00] So you wouldn't let Google have a device in your home that acts as like the brain of your +[6466.00 --> 6467.00] home. +[6467.00 --> 6470.00] I'm trying to separate myself a little bit. +[6470.00 --> 6472.00] What if it was really awesome? +[6472.00 --> 6474.00] What if it like told you when the food in your fridge was spoiled? +[6474.00 --> 6475.00] And what if it like... +[6475.00 --> 6476.00] What if it like... +[6476.00 --> 6477.00] Okay. +[6477.00 --> 6481.00] You know how there are apps for monitoring your sleep pattern? +[6481.00 --> 6482.00] Okay. +[6482.00 --> 6483.00] And waking you up at the right time. +[6483.00 --> 6487.00] What if it was tied into your phone so that like when you start to stir, it like fires +[6487.00 --> 6489.00] up a cup of coffee, so to speak. +[6489.00 --> 6493.00] Like I know you don't drink coffee, but what if that is what we're talking about? +[6493.00 --> 6496.00] Where your home is that smart? +[6496.00 --> 6498.00] The fridge thing... +[6498.00 --> 6500.00] Uh, I don't really have anything spoiled. +[6500.00 --> 6503.00] I know, but it's not the point. +[6503.00 --> 6505.00] The point is the possibilities for the future. +[6505.00 --> 6506.00] Yeah. +[6506.00 --> 6510.00] Like pre-warming your toilet seat before you have to sit down on it. +[6510.00 --> 6515.00] I think what will happen is the whole NSA thing will be figured out at some point in +[6515.00 --> 6520.00] time and then I probably won't worry as much because hopefully something will happen that +[6520.00 --> 6521.00] is good. +[6521.00 --> 6524.00] Because right now it is kind of a huge deal. +[6524.00 --> 6528.00] I don't know what the heck I did, but I did something that wasn't good. +[6528.00 --> 6529.00] What'd you do? +[6529.00 --> 6530.00] Oh. +[6530.00 --> 6531.00] I fixed it. +[6531.00 --> 6532.00] Yay! +[6532.00 --> 6533.00] Alright, let's move on to our next topic. +[6533.00 --> 6539.00] Speaking of NSA stuff, Mozilla has made a fairly public announcement and... +[6539.00 --> 6542.00] Well it's on wired.com so it's about as public as it gets. +[6542.00 --> 6543.00] Yeah. +[6543.00 --> 6545.00] It's also like everywhere else, which is what I meant by that. +[6545.00 --> 6550.00] And it's like, to skip the huge long thing, essentially what they're telling people to +[6550.00 --> 6551.00] do is... +[6551.00 --> 6552.00] Why would you skip that? +[6552.00 --> 6553.00] Oh my god. +[6553.00 --> 6556.00] Is to analyze their code. +[6556.00 --> 6560.00] Their open source browser and they want people to pay a lot of attention to their code. +[6560.00 --> 6566.00] Because what they're saying is, if like a lot of these other groups, they are sent a... +[6566.00 --> 6569.00] What is it even called? +[6569.00 --> 6574.00] Basically, they could be told not to talk about it and put in a back door at any point +[6574.00 --> 6575.00] in time. +[6575.00 --> 6580.00] So what they're telling people to do is pay attention, detect that, and then let everyone +[6580.00 --> 6582.00] know because they won't be able to let everyone know. +[6582.00 --> 6587.00] And they're telling people, use Firefox obviously because it's Mozilla, but also use Firefox +[6587.00 --> 6592.00] and pay attention to us because we might end up doing something evil. +[6592.00 --> 6595.00] And if we do, we want you to know and we want you to tell everyone. +[6595.00 --> 6597.00] Which is actually really cool. +[6597.00 --> 6601.00] I'm glad they're doing it now before there's a gag order. +[6601.00 --> 6602.00] Me too, exactly. +[6602.00 --> 6603.00] Like there's no... +[6603.00 --> 6604.00] That's the word I was looking for. +[6604.00 --> 6605.00] Gag order. +[6605.00 --> 6606.00] Words. +[6606.00 --> 6607.00] Yeah. +[6607.00 --> 6611.00] I'm happy they said it too because basically what they're saying is it's highly possible +[6611.00 --> 6615.00] that they will be receiving a gag order at some point in time and not be able to talk +[6615.00 --> 6616.00] about anything that's going on. +[6616.00 --> 6620.00] And if they tell you now, now you know and now there will hopefully be groups that will +[6620.00 --> 6624.00] pop up that will constantly be analyzing their code and tell everyone when something happens. +[6624.00 --> 6625.00] Yay, open source. +[6625.00 --> 6626.00] Yep. +[6626.00 --> 6627.00] Speaking of... +[6627.00 --> 6632.00] Okay, it's not related to open source at all, but Linus Forsell, one of the members +[6632.00 --> 6640.00] of the Linus Tech Tips forum, has gone ahead and created an unofficial LinusTechTips.com extension. +[6640.00 --> 6643.00] And for people that are like, oh my god make it official! +[6643.00 --> 6646.00] The only reason why we're not making it official is because we are not devving it. +[6646.00 --> 6647.00] And it's not done yet. +[6647.00 --> 6648.00] And it's not done yet. +[6648.00 --> 6650.00] It's not our thing, it's his thing. +[6650.00 --> 6655.00] It's awesome, which is why it's like stickied and we're supporting it, but it's not ours, +[6655.00 --> 6656.00] it's his. +[6656.00 --> 6657.00] It's actually like crazy awesome. +[6657.00 --> 6658.00] It's really good. +[6658.00 --> 6663.00] Something I'm going to take a moment to talk about before we get any further is this... +[6663.00 --> 6665.00] Linus is actually... +[6665.00 --> 6666.00] It's so weird. +[6666.00 --> 6668.00] I don't know many other Linuses. +[6668.00 --> 6670.00] Like for you it might feel normal. +[6670.00 --> 6671.00] It's... +[6671.00 --> 6672.00] No, no. +[6672.00 --> 6673.00] Whenever I say his name it feels like I'm talking to you. +[6673.00 --> 6674.00] No, no, I mean if you meet another Luke. +[6674.00 --> 6675.00] Like... +[6675.00 --> 6676.00] Oh no, it doesn't. +[6676.00 --> 6677.00] There's not that many Lukes actually. +[6677.00 --> 6678.00] Okay. +[6678.00 --> 6679.00] I don't actually... +[6679.00 --> 6680.00] Really? +[6680.00 --> 6681.00] I think I know like one other Luke. +[6681.00 --> 6684.00] Because there's at least one father of someone named Luke. +[6684.00 --> 6689.00] There's a few Lucas, but I don't know actually that many people whose name is actually Luke. +[6689.00 --> 6693.00] Well, for people whose names are really common like the Matts and Brads and Steves of the +[6693.00 --> 6697.00] world, maybe this is normal, but talking about someone named Linus is sort of weird. +[6697.00 --> 6703.00] Anyway, Linus, other Linus, is a very, very big contributor and a very big supporter of +[6703.00 --> 6704.00] Linus Tech Tips. +[6704.00 --> 6709.00] You can see he's actually one of the first blood pink badge owners of which there are only a handful. +[6709.00 --> 6711.00] And then this is a new thing. +[6711.00 --> 6716.00] So, we now have contributions open on the LinusTechTips.com forum. +[6716.00 --> 6718.00] All you have to do is... +[6718.00 --> 6720.00] Stop looking at Koine for a minute there. +[6720.00 --> 6721.00] Um... +[6721.00 --> 6726.00] And go to the store where the featured items on the top will be the bronze contributor, +[6726.00 --> 6728.00] silver contributor, and gold contributor badge. +[6728.00 --> 6732.00] This is not limited in any way to people who just use the forum, and we'll probably do +[6732.00 --> 6733.00] a video about it at some point. +[6733.00 --> 6740.00] But the idea is just like, hey guys, if you want to help us out, that would be amazing. +[6740.00 --> 6747.00] Um... every dollar that we get from the community is something that we can use to move away from +[6747.00 --> 6752.00] more corporate sponsorship, or move towards being able to create new types of content, +[6752.00 --> 6758.00] or... basically it gives us the flexibility to do what we want to do, which is create more content +[6758.00 --> 6759.00] and make it better. +[6759.00 --> 6761.00] So, there's no pressure. +[6761.00 --> 6766.00] As always, there will never be a subscriber-only Linus Tech Tips content stream. +[6766.00 --> 6769.00] There's... there's... there's technically... to jump in here before people start freaking out, +[6769.00 --> 6773.00] there's technically the subscriber-only forum part, but if you have ever seen a dead forum, +[6773.00 --> 6775.00] it is that one. +[6775.00 --> 6776.00] Yeah. +[6776.00 --> 6780.00] There's a... there's... in the silver one, there's a post that is, there wasn't something here, +[6780.00 --> 6783.00] so I thought I'd post here, and then that's still the only thing there. +[6783.00 --> 6785.00] So, like, don't worry that you're missing out of anything. +[6785.00 --> 6792.00] Yeah, there's technically dedicated sub-forums for contributors-only, but... you know, I really don't think they're gonna take off. +[6792.00 --> 6800.00] I mean... I mean, the... the beauty... what I think people love so much about the Linus Tech Tips forum is that it's so active, +[6800.00 --> 6809.00] and when you post something, everyone's talking, and, like, it moves really fast, and to go and limit yourself to talking to the couple dozen other people-only, +[6809.00 --> 6814.00] that are other contributors, I think, goes against the very thing that makes that forum appealing. +[6814.00 --> 6818.00] But we put it in there, because it's just like, well, we wanna kinda, I don't know, give them something exclusive, I guess. +[6818.00 --> 6819.00] So, there you go, guys. +[6819.00 --> 6823.00] And if they ever wanna do, like, something amongst themselves, they can, I guess. +[6823.00 --> 6824.00] They can, I guess. +[6824.00 --> 6825.00] But, like... whatever. +[6825.00 --> 6827.00] So, there you go, guys. +[6827.00 --> 6833.00] If you ever wanted to have a gold contributor, silver contributor, or bronze contributor badge on the forum, then now you can. +[6833.00 --> 6834.00] And have no ads. +[6834.00 --> 6837.00] There's one other... oh, yeah, there's no ads on the forum with that as well. +[6837.00 --> 6846.00] There's one other thing that is not official yet, but if we ever have stuff kind of left over around here, +[6846.00 --> 6853.00] and we were ever to sell it, there might be stuff listed in the store that shows up once you're a contributor, +[6853.00 --> 6858.00] and has different pricing depending on what level of contributor you happen to be. +[6858.00 --> 6859.00] Vague. +[6859.00 --> 6860.00] Vague. +[6860.00 --> 6862.00] Very vague. +[6862.00 --> 6863.00] Anyway, back to Linus' app. +[6863.00 --> 6865.00] Do you wanna run them through the functionality that it has? +[6865.00 --> 6866.00] Sure. +[6866.00 --> 6871.00] So, there's new stuff in here, which is exactly off of stuff that I suggested, which is kinda really cool. +[6871.00 --> 6875.00] Um, so I haven't used this exact version, which is unfortunate. +[6875.00 --> 6876.00] Right. +[6876.00 --> 6881.00] Um, but essentially, so the version I used was like this section, if you wanna mouse sound it. +[6881.00 --> 6887.00] So, you see notification sound, notification popup, uh, always display number, and then the two Twitch streams. +[6887.00 --> 6893.00] So, actually I saw people were connected to the Twitch stream and were saying how many people came here through the thing, +[6893.00 --> 6895.00] because it told them that we went live. +[6895.00 --> 6896.00] Right. +[6896.00 --> 6897.00] Which is actually really cool. +[6897.00 --> 6900.00] So, uh, it'll tell you if one of our streams is live. +[6900.00 --> 6905.00] If you get a notification on the forum, you can set it to have a sound, or have a popup, or not. +[6905.00 --> 6906.00] Which is really cool. +[6906.00 --> 6908.00] Or have a number, or not. +[6908.00 --> 6911.00] Like, I like how you can turn everything off if you get annoyed. +[6911.00 --> 6915.00] Because I had the notification popup, and sound, and everything, and I thought it was really cool. +[6915.00 --> 6919.00] But then after a while, I was like, I get a lot of notifications on the forum. +[6919.00 --> 6920.00] Yeah. +[6920.00 --> 6921.00] I need to turn this off. +[6921.00 --> 6922.00] So I was able to turn it off, and that was nice. +[6922.00 --> 6926.00] What he's added is, now you can split notifications and messages. +[6926.00 --> 6930.00] So if you get a PM on the forum, you can quickly jump to your PMs through this thing. +[6930.00 --> 6932.00] So you just click on it, you jump right to your PMs. +[6932.00 --> 6934.00] And he has a bunch of different notification styles now. +[6934.00 --> 6942.00] So he has, um, general notifications, messages, network errors, or if there is, um, updates. +[6942.00 --> 6943.00] Very cool. +[6943.00 --> 6946.00] I mean, it's actually really, really cool. +[6946.00 --> 6950.00] And apparently someone is working on getting it moved to Firefox as well. +[6950.00 --> 6954.00] So hopefully that becomes a thing at some point, because I'll be super stoked about that. +[6954.00 --> 6956.00] Winamp not dead yet. +[6956.00 --> 6958.00] Article from The Verge. +[6958.00 --> 6959.00] Acquired by Radionomy. +[6959.00 --> 6960.00] Yay. +[6960.00 --> 6962.00] Uh, they also acquired Showcast. +[6962.00 --> 6969.00] And there's, so, so, Showcast is like 6,000 user programmed radio stations, with 13 million unique listeners. +[6969.00 --> 6974.00] And they're hoping that they can expand that number by a factor of 5 or 10 in a while. +[6974.00 --> 6978.00] And they're releasing new Winamp applications for iOS and Android later this year. +[6978.00 --> 6979.00] Awesome. +[6979.00 --> 6981.00] Are we pretty close to the end here? +[6981.00 --> 6982.00] I think so. +[6982.00 --> 6985.00] I think we're pretty much at the end, but I think we should cover this thing right before we move on. +[6985.00 --> 6986.00] Okay. +[6986.00 --> 6987.00] The facial recognition app. +[6987.00 --> 6989.00] It's all in bold, because oops. +[6989.00 --> 6991.00] Um, but it's called Name Tag. +[6991.00 --> 7001.00] And the idea is that it can recognize someone's face and then give you a ton of information on them based on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and dating profiles. +[7001.00 --> 7002.00] Yep. +[7002.00 --> 7007.00] Um, and they're trying to expand it to, uh, to be more specific about the dating profiles. +[7007.00 --> 7008.00] Where is it? +[7008.00 --> 7011.00] Plentyoffish.com, okcupid.com, match.com. +[7011.00 --> 7014.00] Um, and they're working on it so we can bring up that person's criminal history. +[7014.00 --> 7024.00] So you'll be able to see essentially all their social networks and essentially all their possible dating networks and their possible criminal history all by recognizing their face. +[7024.00 --> 7027.00] They're also trying to get this integrated into Google Glass. +[7027.00 --> 7030.00] Google Glass is standing against facial recognition apps. +[7030.00 --> 7031.00] Right. +[7031.00 --> 7032.00] Which is cool. +[7032.00 --> 7033.00] Um, but they're trying to change that. +[7033.00 --> 7035.00] I don't know how they're going to because this sounds horrible. +[7035.00 --> 7040.00] Um, one of the things they're saying is it will not be able to search profiles that are under 18 years old. +[7040.00 --> 7042.00] But I know, like, I did it. +[7042.00 --> 7043.00] I'm going to be completely honest. +[7043.00 --> 7046.00] When I was a younger kid to be able to get on certain, like, websites and stuff. +[7046.00 --> 7047.00] Yep. +[7047.00 --> 7048.00] You just live on your reach. +[7048.00 --> 7049.00] I'm like, I'm this year. +[7049.00 --> 7052.00] Click, scroll, click, like, whatever. +[7052.00 --> 7053.00] It doesn't matter. +[7053.00 --> 7055.00] I still do that because it's fast and I don't care. +[7055.00 --> 7060.00] Um, so like, that's not actually going to work at all. +[7060.00 --> 7066.00] It has been denounced by, uh, Canadian privacy watchdogs as creepy and dangerous because it is creepy and dangerous. +[7066.00 --> 7075.00] Uh, it was developed by facialnetwork.com and you can opt out if you go to facialnetwork.com's thing or whatever. +[7075.00 --> 7078.00] I don't know if it's facialnetwork.com or if it's the main tag's website. +[7078.00 --> 7084.00] I don't know if it's the main thing where you'd probably, you'd have to opt out like every once in a while to like update for whatever new social network you're using. +[7084.00 --> 7085.00] Yeah. +[7085.00 --> 7087.00] Like, no one's ever going to end up properly opting out. +[7087.00 --> 7088.00] Yeah. +[7088.00 --> 7090.00] And I'm, I'm going to play devil's advocate for a minute here. +[7090.00 --> 7095.00] I know if Kane was on still, he'd like yell at me for this, but I see the benign uses for this. +[7095.00 --> 7100.00] I can definitely think of ways that it could be useful without being creepy. +[7100.00 --> 7101.00] Yeah. +[7101.00 --> 7102.00] Like, but it's also super creepy. +[7102.00 --> 7103.00] It is super creepy. +[7103.00 --> 7104.00] I mean, okay. +[7104.00 --> 7105.00] Okay. +[7105.00 --> 7106.00] So for someone like me, why would I use this? +[7106.00 --> 7110.00] Um, I have a really, really bad memory when it comes to faces and names. +[7110.00 --> 7120.00] If I was walking around somewhere like CES where these are people that I see maybe once a year, sometimes once every two years, but they see me in videos all the time and recognize me. +[7120.00 --> 7122.00] And for me, it's like really awkward when I don't know who they are. +[7122.00 --> 7126.00] If I walked up to people and it was like bleep bleep bleep, this is who they are. +[7126.00 --> 7128.00] I'd be like, right them. +[7128.00 --> 7131.00] And I like, I know the details, but I'm really bad at faces. +[7131.00 --> 7135.00] This would be great for someone like me, but I understand why people don't want it. +[7135.00 --> 7138.00] And like, I would be way more okay with a super cut down version. +[7138.00 --> 7140.00] I don't need it looking at people's dating profiles. +[7140.00 --> 7142.00] Well, it doesn't need people's criminal history. +[7142.00 --> 7144.00] And I don't need dating profiles. +[7144.00 --> 7145.00] I don't need criminal history. +[7145.00 --> 7148.00] I don't need all this kind of stuff like that's creepy. +[7148.00 --> 7149.00] Go away. +[7149.00 --> 7150.00] I wouldn't mind seeing your dating profile. +[7150.00 --> 7152.00] You know my dating profile. +[7152.00 --> 7154.00] I don't have one because I'm with you. +[7154.00 --> 7159.00] I think you actually managed to take it one step further than me for a change. +[7159.00 --> 7160.00] I did. +[7160.00 --> 7161.00] It was weird. +[7161.00 --> 7164.00] That's not true because I think she's watching. +[7164.00 --> 7165.00] Anyways. +[7165.00 --> 7175.00] Speaking of under 18, that reminded me of the whole Steam thing where 93% of Steam users +[7175.00 --> 7179.00] are born on January 1st because people just fake it. +[7179.00 --> 7184.00] Yeah, it's annoying going through that age verification thing all the time and no one +[7184.00 --> 7186.00] cares and no one actually follows it. +[7186.00 --> 7189.00] I think my age on Steam is like 50 something. +[7189.00 --> 7190.00] Yeah. +[7190.00 --> 7193.00] Because when I scrolled and clicked it was just further than I kind of anticipated and +[7193.00 --> 7194.00] didn't care when I saw it. +[7194.00 --> 7201.00] My age on Linus Tech Tips, on the Linus Tech Tips YouTube account is like 107 years old because +[7201.00 --> 7205.00] I didn't think it mattered and I figured I could change it if it really mattered. +[7205.00 --> 7206.00] Can't change it. +[7206.00 --> 7208.00] I hope everyone's age on the forum is January 1st. +[7208.00 --> 7211.00] I actually don't even know if there's an input for birthday. +[7211.00 --> 7212.00] I don't care. +[7212.00 --> 7213.00] I don't know. +[7213.00 --> 7214.00] I didn't change the registration thing. +[7214.00 --> 7215.00] It's just standard. +[7215.00 --> 7216.00] Okay. +[7216.00 --> 7217.00] All right. +[7217.00 --> 7218.00] Well, I think... +[7218.00 --> 7219.00] I think we finally made it. +[7219.00 --> 7220.00] That's it. +[7220.00 --> 7223.00] I saw a couple questions in the Twitch chat. +[7223.00 --> 7225.00] We're filming on a Blackmagic cinema camera. +[7225.00 --> 7226.00] Actually, it's brand new. +[7226.00 --> 7233.00] I was borrowing Edzels for the last few weeks, but that's one of the reasons it looks better. +[7233.00 --> 7237.00] The other reason it looks better than usual is we're streaming on our new fiber connection. +[7237.00 --> 7241.00] So, we've got anywhere from 10 to 15 megabit up. +[7241.00 --> 7248.00] That is just for WAN show and is like super duperly more difficult to have us not be able +[7248.00 --> 7249.00] to stream on it. +[7249.00 --> 7253.00] That's part of the reason that it looks good, isn't dropping frames, and yeah, I'm super +[7253.00 --> 7254.00] pleased. +[7254.00 --> 7255.00] It looks awesome. +[7255.00 --> 7258.00] I think we might have to... +[7258.00 --> 7261.00] I sent you an email during the show, which you probably didn't get, but we got a whole +[7261.00 --> 7262.00] bunch of people complaining again. +[7262.00 --> 7266.00] I think we might have to lower the bitrate not because of us, but I think we might have +[7266.00 --> 7272.00] to almost lower the bitrate because of Twitch to help Twitch feed it to people. +[7272.00 --> 7273.00] Wow. +[7273.00 --> 7274.00] Saddest thing ever. +[7274.00 --> 7275.00] But I'm serious. +[7275.00 --> 7277.00] We might want to try that. +[7277.00 --> 7282.00] Because it seems to be okay when there's not a ton of people watching, but when we +[7282.00 --> 7285.00] get a lot of viewers, it starts lagging and that doesn't make any sense for our end. +[7285.00 --> 7286.00] Yeah. +[7286.00 --> 7287.00] But it does make sense for their end. +[7287.00 --> 7290.00] So, if we lowered the bitrate, it might make it easier for Twitch and that it might work +[7290.00 --> 7291.00] better. +[7291.00 --> 7292.00] So, yeah. +[7292.00 --> 7293.00] That's an idea at least. +[7293.00 --> 7294.00] Because it's fine. +[7294.00 --> 7295.00] Like, we're stable. +[7295.00 --> 7296.00] We've dropped zero frames. +[7296.00 --> 7297.00] Yep. +[7297.00 --> 7298.00] Zero frames dropped, guys. +[7298.00 --> 7301.00] But people with really strong internet connections are lagging. +[7301.00 --> 7302.00] So, yeah. +[7302.00 --> 7303.00] Alright. +[7303.00 --> 7304.00] Well, goodnight everyone. +[7304.00 --> 7306.00] Thank you so much for tuning into the WAN show. +[7306.00 --> 7307.00] The archive should be up in a timely manner. +[7307.00 --> 7309.00] I don't think there's any reason why we wouldn't need to. +[7309.00 --> 7311.00] No, we are not animatronic. +[7311.00 --> 7312.00] Thank you for asking. +[7312.00 --> 7313.00] And we'll see you guys again next week. +[7313.00 --> 7315.00] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[7315.00 --> 7316.00] An animatronic. +[7316.00 --> 7317.00] Yeah, it's time to talk to you guys. +[7317.00 --> 7318.00] If you haven't. +[7318.00 --> 7319.00] Yeah. +[7319.00 -->

I'm sorry you had to see what I was doing there right before the show started, but you know, I mean, I'd hate to have that hanging over me during the entire show, so it's better to get things out of the way. +[12.00 --> 41.98] So we actually have got a pretty short show for you today, guys. We've got mandatory device kill switches potentially coming to California, so that is to say that the owner, not the manufacturer, I mean, ugh, the potential for abuse is so there, but the owner of a device could go, hey, that jerk mugged me, well, I'll show him what for and just turn the thing off, or maybe you could disable certain functionality. +[42.00 --> 49.30] Right now, it's not like there's a standard that's completely ratified or anything like that, but that could be coming, and as a consumer, I think that's a fantastic idea. +[49.50 --> 51.48] There's a standard for what it has to be able to do. +[51.56 --> 56.76] Yes, and we'll talk about that when we do the actual topic, but right now we're teasing them. Teasing. +[56.76 --> 74.44] Sony is in talks to sell off their Vio line in much the same way that IBM sold off their ThinkPad business, so we might see Vio notebooks in the future, but they might take on a very different form, if at all. So stay tuned for that as well. +[74.44 --> 91.14] More information from BitTorrent Sync. Someone is actually making something called SyncNet, which is essentially a way for you to access webpages without them being like normal IP domains, because it's all sourced through BitTorrent Sync, so we'll talk about that later. +[91.14 --> 105.94] And Oculus Rink... Rink? Oculus Rift has its first launch title, which will be EVE Valkyrie, which has been kind of thrown around at all the different trade shows lately and looks amazing, so that was probably the smartest move they could have possibly done. +[106.02 --> 111.76] He's got hockey on the brain, because Olympics. Oculus Rink. VR hockey would be so awesome. +[111.94 --> 113.00] It's, uh, they have... +[113.00 --> 114.02] Every sport, VR. +[114.14 --> 117.80] There's like a, like, not AAA version already. People are working on it. +[117.80 --> 119.78] Oh, I'm so stoked. It's gonna be awesome. +[119.80 --> 121.14] Pretty epic. Have you seen the flight one? +[121.34 --> 129.38] Someone's like, there's no echo. No, no. The echo usually comes when I switch to my notebook as a source, but I have already disabled it this week. Sorry, what'd you say? +[131.86 --> 135.54] Yes. Um, uh, yeah, no, have you seen the flight one? +[136.02 --> 136.42] No. +[136.70 --> 139.66] Flight Simulation VR. As like a bird. +[140.72 --> 144.66] Oh, no, I did hear about that. Yeah, yeah, you just like, you just like fly around. +[144.66 --> 148.24] It's like... So good. So good. I'm so excited for stuff like that. +[148.26 --> 150.88] I'm so excited for, like, but then they need, like, a combat mod. +[151.12 --> 154.50] Well, yeah. Bird dog fighting. And, like, hawks and, like, a bird MMO. +[157.16 --> 160.46] You don't get an epic mount. You are an epic mount. +[160.62 --> 161.88] I know I'm an epic mount. +[161.88 --> 190.00] So guys, our sponsor this week is Hotspot Shield. +[190.00 --> 203.66] If you're looking for an easy way to tune in to the Sochi Olympic Games, speaking of having Olympics and hockey on the brain, and your country doesn't have great coverage, check out the link there, bit.ly slash hsshare. +[203.66 --> 218.16] You can get a free trial of their Elite service, which will allow you to just simply select UKIP, and boom, you will have full access to UK's coverage of the Olympic Games, regardless of where in the world you happen to be. +[218.16 --> 226.26] And then if you do decide to sign up for an Elite membership in the long term, you can use offer code LINUS to save 20% on that. +[226.34 --> 230.36] So I definitely recommend heading over and checking that out. +[230.66 --> 233.14] So let's jump into our first topic here. +[233.14 --> 236.62] Do you want to do outer net or sink net first? +[236.82 --> 237.62] We have all the nets. +[237.92 --> 239.76] You can decide which net you want to talk about first. +[239.84 --> 242.40] I want fish nets, but I'll settle for outer net. +[242.46 --> 244.94] Let's go ahead and get this bad boy fired up. +[245.66 --> 249.46] All right, so just before we even start going in, I found their... +[249.46 --> 252.78] It's about this, but before we start, like, talking about how it actually works... +[252.78 --> 254.08] Why is my screen sharing not working? +[254.08 --> 258.00] I went down to their, like, support us donate area. +[258.24 --> 263.30] They support PayPal, Amazon payments, direct payments through their website, Dogecoin, and Bitcoin. +[264.60 --> 265.04] Really? +[265.48 --> 266.90] I was like, wow. +[268.90 --> 273.04] You guys spent a really long time on your, like, ability for people to support. +[273.36 --> 275.10] Maybe spend more time building outer net. +[276.82 --> 278.02] It's a really interesting idea. +[278.10 --> 278.84] They want to support it. +[278.96 --> 281.30] Hopefully, Linus gets his laptop working at some point in time. +[281.38 --> 282.42] Yeah, in the meantime, go ahead. +[282.42 --> 286.80] But they want it to work through hundreds of miniature satellites that orbit around the Earth. +[287.18 --> 294.28] And all these satellites would be constantly broadcasting, like, Wi-Fi data, essentially, but broadcasting it downwards. +[294.50 --> 297.22] So for the mass majority of people, this is going to be one-way communication. +[297.36 --> 298.94] You will be receiving the information. +[299.56 --> 309.54] And they'll transfer stuff like news and information, crop prices for farmers, Bitcoin blockchains, Ubuntu, Wikipedia in its entirety. +[309.54 --> 314.38] Some music, movies, and games, but that's not necessarily the main focus. +[315.00 --> 318.98] Educational courseware, emergency communications, and many other things. +[319.34 --> 327.08] And this is mainly designed for people that don't necessarily have access to the internet because the goal of this project is that everyone should be able to be connected. +[327.08 --> 327.94] Ow. +[328.76 --> 335.30] Two-way communication is only going to work for very specific users and very specific use cases. +[335.46 --> 340.46] So it's going to be more focused on, say, there's a big natural disaster and most communication lines are down. +[340.56 --> 343.32] You'll still be able to access outer net for two-way communication. +[343.62 --> 345.06] But most people are not going to be able to. +[345.06 --> 354.16] This will also extend to certain people in areas where some sort of regime might be restricting you from accessing the internet. +[355.66 --> 356.34] Linus feels disabled. +[356.34 --> 358.98] In its unfiltered entirety. +[359.54 --> 362.64] Speaking of unfiltered entirety, you know what? +[362.70 --> 363.82] Oh, I do have one more idea. +[364.22 --> 365.02] So go on. +[365.10 --> 365.34] Keep going. +[365.68 --> 365.76] Okay. +[365.94 --> 370.68] I mean, really, guys, okay, so to be clear, this is not internet for everyone. +[371.10 --> 373.46] The outer net is not the same as the internet. +[373.46 --> 379.28] The idea is it's more like the radio would have been, you know, 60 years ago. +[379.62 --> 381.20] So they can push you information. +[381.52 --> 389.90] And one thing that's cool that makes it not like the radio, actually, is that users can help push what is priority on the outer net at that point in time. +[390.00 --> 397.38] So if something really big is going on, like what's been going on in Ukraine, users could push that so that it's on the outer net. +[397.50 --> 400.22] So you can push it through SMS or certain phone apps. +[400.22 --> 402.82] So users kind of control what's on there. +[402.82 --> 409.88] Obviously, Wikipedia in its entirety is kind of a really important thing to be on something like the outer net because it's a massive source of information. +[410.80 --> 414.76] But more news and that kind of stuff, I think, is going to be very user-driven. +[416.92 --> 417.40] Yay. +[417.40 --> 421.56] That's honestly about it, but it's actually really interesting. +[421.74 --> 425.96] My favorite thing is the, like, in case of disaster, you will gain two-way communication. +[426.36 --> 433.26] And something that they're thinking about, a long-term goal, is that everyone will always have two-way communication, but that is not a launch goal at all. +[433.52 --> 439.20] That is a, like, hey, maybe way the heck down the line this can be supported because that would be awesome. +[439.20 --> 440.50] Even one way is amazing. +[440.68 --> 450.02] I mean, something that has really baffled me is with everything going on in the Ukraine right now, why is it that every headline is about Justin Bieber? +[450.36 --> 450.58] Yeah. +[450.76 --> 455.14] Because, I mean, and it's one of those things where, look, guys, I'm not going to make this show about Justin Bieber. +[455.34 --> 458.88] I've had a lot of people asking me to talk about Justin Bieber for whatever reason. +[459.64 --> 460.64] I think it's because we're Canadians. +[460.64 --> 462.12] I don't know anything about him. +[462.78 --> 463.16] I don't really know what you're doing. +[463.16 --> 464.66] I don't know what songs he sings. +[464.80 --> 466.08] I don't know how old he is. +[466.16 --> 468.58] I don't know who he's dating, and I really don't care. +[468.88 --> 479.02] And the thing about all this sensationalized celebrity gossip is that the harder you ignore it, the more it will actually disappear from your life. +[479.44 --> 482.42] You won't even notice it anymore if you just stop caring. +[482.42 --> 491.48] And the outer net, I think, would be a fantastic way for people who don't care about Justin Bieber to be able to tune in. +[491.62 --> 492.18] Yeah, hopefully. +[492.50 --> 494.14] Although it could turn into another Twitter. +[494.48 --> 495.16] It's user-driven. +[495.54 --> 499.62] But it's nerdy enough that I think it'll be users that aren't Bieber. +[499.92 --> 500.08] Yeah. +[500.40 --> 503.38] But, I mean, like anything, it might turn into that eventually. +[503.38 --> 522.34] But I still believe that looking at the technology and the way that it is intended to be used, there's so much potential for it to be more like an unfiltered in terms of censorship, but filtered in terms of nonsense and garbage, news source that people could really come to rely on. +[522.34 --> 535.64] I mean, one of the problems with the internet is that it relies on ground-based communication hubs that can be located within areas that restrict their citizens from having access to information. +[536.02 --> 545.38] And that's what the internet was intended to be used for, unrestricted access to information for everyone and the ability to contribute to that information that everyone has access to. +[545.38 --> 554.38] OuterNet might not allow everyone to contribute immediately, but it will give everyone access to it, which is, quite frankly, amazing. +[555.30 --> 567.68] I mean, if they achieve this, then, I mean, this is, to me, it's a step that's as big as the internet was in the first place, from my perspective, from a human rights and equality perspective. +[568.38 --> 575.16] Because people, say people in the Ukraine, that's where that short-term two-way communication could be dropped in. +[576.12 --> 579.06] Is you could get help while you're in the Ukraine, if something's going on. +[579.10 --> 587.40] If you're somewhere else, if there's a natural disaster, like, I don't think it's necessarily only natural disasters, because right when the Ukraine thing started going on, there was all those live streams, right? +[587.58 --> 587.84] Mm-hmm. +[588.08 --> 591.30] And you could actually fairly easily figure out what was going on. +[591.50 --> 595.92] I don't necessarily know what happened, but I'm not getting as much information out of there as I was before. +[595.92 --> 596.06] Thanks. +[596.66 --> 607.50] And now I'm not hunting for it super actively every day, but it would be nice if there was a stream of information that I could just go to easily all the time and get updates. +[607.50 --> 613.54] Because for me so far, it's been, honestly, a lot of manual hunting, just to figure out what the heck's going on. +[613.58 --> 614.28] And it shouldn't be. +[614.70 --> 614.82] No. +[614.82 --> 615.62] I mean, it doesn't make sense. +[615.68 --> 616.44] It's such a big deal. +[616.62 --> 617.06] It is. +[617.18 --> 617.76] Compared to Bieber. +[617.98 --> 621.16] And everyone's focusing on, I can't even remember what the most recent thing is. +[621.16 --> 621.32] Olympics. +[621.32 --> 623.54] But, well, I wish it was the Olympics. +[623.82 --> 624.28] Do you? +[625.20 --> 626.90] Instead of, well, instead of Bieber. +[627.10 --> 627.86] Well, okay, yeah. +[628.02 --> 632.48] Olympics, greater than Bieber, less important than almost anything else. +[632.54 --> 634.24] I mean, don't get me wrong. +[634.74 --> 640.30] National pride is great, and the spirit of sport, and people cooperating and competing. +[640.98 --> 641.82] It's all great. +[641.88 --> 647.52] I just don't think the Olympics is as big of a deal as, you know. +[647.74 --> 649.08] Giant, super important things. +[649.40 --> 649.74] Yeah. +[649.74 --> 650.80] Like this went on in Ukraine. +[650.80 --> 652.36] Like, super important things. +[652.44 --> 655.52] I think Coca-Cola should find some other way to get their message out there. +[655.76 --> 656.88] I don't even know if Coke is. +[656.94 --> 658.50] I know Samsung is a sponsor of the Olympics. +[658.64 --> 659.60] You hear about Samsung. +[661.30 --> 668.08] Because they're a sponsor of the Olympics, any athletes that are using non-Samsung devices have to cover their logos. +[668.46 --> 668.68] Seriously? +[668.68 --> 670.22] It might have been specifically Apple. +[670.82 --> 676.10] But, yeah, during the ceremonies and stuff, they have to cover up the logos on their device. +[676.10 --> 677.42] I'm just sitting here going, it's like. +[680.22 --> 680.62] Okay. +[680.80 --> 682.36] That's brutal. +[682.36 --> 684.30] There's a lot of comments about my sunglasses. +[685.42 --> 687.58] Well, it happened to be sunny out today. +[688.12 --> 689.50] You should wear them for the entire show. +[689.50 --> 691.06] I had my sunglasses on. +[691.06 --> 692.06] I had my sunglasses on. +[692.06 --> 702.76] And because I would rather put them on my head than hang them around my neck with a strap, which are the two options if they're not on your eyes, I went and I put them on my head when I came in. +[702.76 --> 703.54] You should just leave them on. +[703.54 --> 707.40] Because you guys want to talk about the sunglasses, I'll give you something to talk about. +[707.50 --> 708.92] I'm wearing them for the rest of the stream. +[709.02 --> 709.50] So there you go. +[709.50 --> 709.60] Nice. +[709.60 --> 710.66] All right. +[710.66 --> 710.74] All right. +[710.74 --> 719.48] So the next topic is actually another net that is exciting and terrifying at the same time. +[719.60 --> 720.76] This one doesn't feel. +[720.84 --> 721.48] This was posted by. +[721.54 --> 722.00] Oh, shoot. +[722.06 --> 724.20] Our last topic was posted on the forum by. +[724.44 --> 724.82] Sorry. +[724.92 --> 727.60] I sometimes forget to do these callouts for you guys. +[728.48 --> 729.18] Is it Sean? +[729.50 --> 729.82] By. +[730.26 --> 731.48] I said showing the doc. +[731.76 --> 732.00] All. +[732.46 --> 732.86] All. +[733.00 --> 733.68] Decise. +[734.20 --> 734.48] All. +[734.48 --> 735.04] Decise. +[736.38 --> 741.10] If people want me to be able to pronounce their names on the stream, they need to have names that I can pronounce. +[742.00 --> 743.70] So that's all I have to say about that. +[743.76 --> 745.32] Anyway, the next one's from Top War Gamer. +[745.74 --> 748.34] So this is SyncNet. +[749.86 --> 750.26] SyncNet. +[750.60 --> 751.76] SyncNet is interesting. +[751.76 --> 758.22] My favorite thing is like one of the first quotes you see when looking for this thing at all is SyncNet is experimental. +[758.64 --> 760.34] No security auditing has been done. +[760.52 --> 761.70] Only use it if you know what you're doing. +[761.90 --> 762.70] Which is insane. +[762.90 --> 765.86] Which basically means don't use it. +[766.08 --> 766.52] Don't. +[766.58 --> 767.42] I mean, the way. +[767.52 --> 767.70] Okay. +[767.76 --> 772.70] So the way that it works, if you guys aren't familiar with BitTorrent Sync, why don't I do the BitTorrent Sync rundown? +[773.14 --> 776.58] And then you can do the how it relates to this rundown. +[776.70 --> 776.78] Okay. +[776.86 --> 780.02] So BitTorrent Sync is actually magical. +[780.02 --> 789.80] It's one of the easiest ways to share files with yourself remotely or with other people in a secure and private manner. +[790.16 --> 795.28] So BitTorrent Sync is an application that you install on any PC with storage or any device. +[795.40 --> 798.70] It actually works on iOS and Android phones as well. +[798.70 --> 810.54] And what it does is it actually allows you to create shared folders that use a 33 character secret, which is just another way of saying password or whatever. +[810.70 --> 811.76] Anyway, they call it a secret. +[812.00 --> 815.98] A 33 character secret to determine who has access to it. +[815.98 --> 824.52] So what you can do is you can create this folder, create a secret, enter the secret on your phone, which is as simple as scanning a QR code when you're sitting in front of that computer. +[824.90 --> 827.70] And then you'll have access to those files on the fly. +[827.98 --> 830.08] Between phones, it's also amazing. +[830.08 --> 840.00] So you can use BitTorrent Sync to send files between phones using a local Wi-Fi or data or whatever it is that you want to do simply by sharing a secret or scanning a QR code with each other. +[840.14 --> 843.54] It's faster than almost anything else out there. +[843.86 --> 850.16] And unlike things like Samsung's proprietary technology where they want you to put the phones together and then it'll transfer. +[850.72 --> 853.46] It's like, but only if your friends all use Samsung. +[853.46 --> 854.52] No, come on. +[854.88 --> 858.36] It is completely not locked down to any particular platform. +[858.62 --> 860.46] So BitTorrent Sync is awesome. +[861.10 --> 872.40] And one of the other things that it does is the more shared folders there are distributed on devices all over the place, the faster you can get access to it. +[872.44 --> 878.60] So if I had my photo library, say I had it on BitTorrent Sync here at the office. +[878.60 --> 883.46] I had it on BitTorrent Sync at my house and I had it on BitTorrent Sync at my parents' house. +[883.62 --> 890.96] If I wanted to grab one of those photos on my phone, I would get the cumulative upload speed of those three locations. +[891.40 --> 897.60] So I've created a private cloud all pushing to me at the same time, which is awesome. +[897.60 --> 903.42] Awesome, because if you get together with some friends and you create BitTorrent Sync shares, you have to trust your friends. +[903.54 --> 904.92] It has to be, you know, not private data. +[905.10 --> 906.82] Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting this. +[907.04 --> 916.80] But if you BitTorrent Sync each other's stuff, you can take advantage of your own private internet, which leads into, or your own private cloud storage, which leads into a new concept. +[916.80 --> 926.00] So how this works is what you're doing is instead of transferring just random files, you're transferring somewhat specifically tuned HTML files. +[926.48 --> 930.84] And then there's a specific browser that's going to be made that can access that. +[930.94 --> 936.50] So what you're doing is instead of going to a URL, you're typing in this secret into the URL bar. +[936.98 --> 941.34] And then that, instead of going to an IP, is just going to a folder. +[941.66 --> 943.40] So when you go there, you download it. +[943.40 --> 944.92] You download the entire website. +[944.92 --> 945.72] The entire website. +[945.88 --> 947.46] Which is a security hole. +[947.62 --> 948.92] And then you become a node. +[949.18 --> 950.18] It's one big hole. +[950.38 --> 951.66] That's all it is, is a hole. +[952.00 --> 954.02] Like, it's not secure at all. +[954.22 --> 954.40] No. +[954.56 --> 956.00] And then you become a node. +[956.28 --> 964.08] So it actually, essentially, if someone has a massive website on here, it becomes easier for them to host it as time goes on. +[964.08 --> 966.60] Because more and more people will access it, then they all become nodes. +[966.90 --> 970.34] So instead of bandwidth costs going up, they either stay the same or go down. +[970.96 --> 973.36] Now, it wouldn't work for content like a forum. +[974.18 --> 974.28] No. +[974.28 --> 977.82] Because you can't download the entire LinusTechTips.com forum. +[977.96 --> 978.48] Well, you could. +[979.00 --> 979.46] You shouldn't. +[979.46 --> 983.06] But you'd get a singular snapshot, and it's not going to update very well. +[983.22 --> 985.46] Like, you can update it because it's BitTorrent Sync. +[985.50 --> 987.32] So as changes happens, it can be synced out. +[987.54 --> 990.76] But something like a forum where it's moving that quickly is not really going to work very well. +[991.32 --> 994.82] Something like a chat box is not going to work. +[994.82 --> 998.94] Something like a news site or a blog would actually work really well. +[998.94 --> 1001.74] Or just anything static in general is going to work fairly well. +[1001.74 --> 1006.68] And then if you have updates like once a day or something like that, that's not going to be that hard to sync out to everyone. +[1006.80 --> 1008.14] Because it's a synchronization folder. +[1008.42 --> 1010.60] You can just get an update while it's sitting there. +[1010.60 --> 1014.30] As he said, you can make a secret key. +[1014.72 --> 1018.72] What you can also do is actually make what's called a read key, which is a read-only key. +[1018.84 --> 1019.84] So people can't... +[1019.84 --> 1025.04] If they tamper with your files, it won't be streamed back out under that key. +[1025.90 --> 1027.78] Which is interesting and a good idea. +[1028.20 --> 1031.34] You're still harboring a whole bunch of files from some random dude. +[1031.34 --> 1039.30] And those files that are on your computer can be updated just like that at any time by that dude. +[1039.66 --> 1045.46] So if someone creates the most benevolent service in the world or website in the world, +[1045.66 --> 1047.34] and then one day... +[1047.34 --> 1053.66] Let's even say that they don't get possessed by a demon and decide to do something evil and completely take over your computer. +[1053.66 --> 1054.74] But someone steals their secret key. +[1054.74 --> 1058.40] But let's say someone steals their secret, breaks into their house. +[1059.04 --> 1060.88] We're talking realistic stuff here. +[1060.88 --> 1066.88] Someone figures out who they are, breaks into their house, sits at their computer, and updates the website. +[1067.22 --> 1069.80] And does whatever they want. +[1069.88 --> 1075.04] Because they have all this data stored on your PC that is just going to sync itself to you. +[1075.08 --> 1078.94] And then next time you access it, it can do probably whatever it wants. +[1079.86 --> 1080.30] There's... +[1080.30 --> 1081.88] Now, there... +[1081.88 --> 1088.74] There are ways that they could figure out how to advance this and possibly put security in place and all that other kind of stuff. +[1088.74 --> 1090.80] But it's sketchy as all hell right now. +[1090.88 --> 1092.88] So be careful if you want to go test this. +[1092.88 --> 1096.88] I think that we should probably go as far as to say don't test this. +[1096.88 --> 1097.88] Probably don't test this. +[1097.88 --> 1098.88] Let's just... +[1098.88 --> 1099.88] Let's do that. +[1099.88 --> 1100.88] Don't test it. +[1100.88 --> 1101.88] But here you go. +[1101.88 --> 1102.88] This is what it is. +[1102.88 --> 1105.80] It's really interesting anyways because in the future, like I said, certain security things +[1105.80 --> 1106.80] can come in hand. +[1106.80 --> 1109.80] Maybe only certain file types can be transferred over this system. +[1109.80 --> 1110.88] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[1110.88 --> 1112.88] Certain things aren't going to be supported. +[1112.88 --> 1113.88] It'll probably be very raw. +[1113.88 --> 1116.88] A lot of text-based sites, stuff like that. +[1116.88 --> 1117.88] Which... +[1117.88 --> 1119.88] Which is interesting enough. +[1119.88 --> 1120.88] But we'll see where that goes. +[1120.88 --> 1130.88] There's ideas for things like colored coins and name coins being brought in so that you can have more easily accessible things like actual domain names going to secrets. +[1130.88 --> 1138.88] Because right now it's sync colon slash slash and then a 33 character secret which is a little bit crazy. +[1138.88 --> 1140.88] So hopefully that gets easier at some point. +[1140.88 --> 1146.88] Name coin can also make it so you can easily look up who's running a website instead of just this random secret key. +[1146.88 --> 1149.88] So yeah, I don't know. +[1149.88 --> 1157.88] It's freaky and scary and possibly amazing and possibly one of the scariest things on the internet all at the same time. +[1157.88 --> 1164.88] It's going to enable things like certain groups that could otherwise be oppressed to be able to get information out there. +[1164.88 --> 1174.88] It's also going to enable things like really, really, really, really creepy people on the internet having stories of images and websites and stuff like that being really hard to take down. +[1174.88 --> 1179.88] So yeah, we always have to look at the bad side but then there's also the good side. +[1179.88 --> 1181.88] It's like the force basically. +[1181.88 --> 1183.88] It's like those Jedi we saw fighting in the park the other day. +[1183.88 --> 1184.88] Yeah! +[1184.88 --> 1186.88] Awesome little Jedi. +[1186.88 --> 1187.88] I know. +[1187.88 --> 1188.88] Baby Jedi. +[1188.88 --> 1191.88] There's ideas in the future for converters of sorts. +[1191.88 --> 1197.88] You can convert a website, like just a standard website into something that can work on this SyncNet thing. +[1197.88 --> 1203.88] And there's ideas for maybe Firefox and Chrome plugins so you don't actually have to have a dedicated browser for it. +[1203.88 --> 1209.88] And you can just type into the URL bar or something else, whatever the plugin works, and then Firefox and Chrome could interpret that. +[1209.88 --> 1218.88] By the time my son is in high school, the internet as we know it could be a marginalized part of the internet. +[1218.88 --> 1220.88] Because there's going to be Pirate Bay's internet. +[1220.88 --> 1221.88] Yeah. +[1221.88 --> 1223.88] There's going to be SyncNet internet. +[1223.88 --> 1230.88] There's going to be potentially outer net, some of which will provide services that are actually more important than what the internet does today. +[1230.88 --> 1231.88] Isn't that amazing? +[1231.88 --> 1236.88] Especially because the internet is losing net neutrality. +[1236.88 --> 1239.88] It's being way more commercialized every single freaking day. +[1239.88 --> 1240.88] Yeah! +[1240.88 --> 1241.88] Who was Verizon throttling? +[1241.88 --> 1243.88] It was Netflix, right? +[1243.88 --> 1244.88] Yeah, I think so. +[1244.88 --> 1245.88] But then they're denying it, I think. +[1245.88 --> 1247.88] Yeah, they can deny whatever they want. +[1247.88 --> 1248.88] But they were. +[1248.88 --> 1249.88] But they're denying it. +[1249.88 --> 1250.88] Yeah. +[1250.88 --> 1251.88] So, allegedly. +[1251.88 --> 1252.88] Allegedly. +[1252.88 --> 1253.88] As long as you say allegedly, then you- +[1253.88 --> 1254.88] Nothing really matters. +[1254.88 --> 1255.88] Yeah. +[1255.88 --> 1256.88] It's like that NBC story. +[1256.88 --> 1259.88] It's like, the phone was hacked while I was in Sochi. +[1259.88 --> 1263.88] Like, no, you were in Moscow and it was hacked because you did something stupid. +[1263.88 --> 1265.88] Not because someone there was actually attacking you. +[1265.88 --> 1266.88] You're an idiot. +[1266.88 --> 1267.88] Um. +[1267.88 --> 1268.88] Allegedly an idiot. +[1268.88 --> 1269.88] Allegedly an idiot. +[1269.88 --> 1271.88] We don't want any lawsuits here. +[1271.88 --> 1272.88] None at all! +[1272.88 --> 1273.88] I, yeah, I don't know. +[1273.88 --> 1275.88] That whole thing is so stupid. +[1275.88 --> 1278.88] He just went to some site and clicked on something that he shouldn't have. +[1278.88 --> 1279.88] And then was like, oh my god! +[1279.88 --> 1280.88] People are hacking people in Sochi! +[1280.88 --> 1281.88] And it's like, what? +[1281.88 --> 1282.88] No? +[1282.88 --> 1283.88] Oh, god. +[1283.88 --> 1284.88] Anyways. +[1284.88 --> 1287.88] I mean, there are problems in Sochi. +[1287.88 --> 1288.88] Yes. +[1288.88 --> 1289.88] It wasn't one of them. +[1289.88 --> 1291.88] Or it might be, but it didn't happen to him. +[1291.88 --> 1293.88] It was this completely different thing that happened to him. +[1293.88 --> 1297.88] Alright, so next, this is unbelievable. +[1297.88 --> 1299.88] So, um, believe it or- +[1299.88 --> 1304.88] Okay, believe it or not, this unbelievable thing is not being reported on by us because +[1304.88 --> 1308.88] we happen to be a Twitch partner and we're streaming on Twitch.tv right now. +[1308.88 --> 1310.88] I think they don't call it Twitch.tv. +[1310.88 --> 1311.88] I think that's an old people thing. +[1311.88 --> 1312.88] Twitch.tv? +[1312.88 --> 1313.88] Saying dot. +[1313.88 --> 1314.88] Really? +[1314.88 --> 1315.88] I think so. +[1315.88 --> 1316.88] Yeah. +[1316.88 --> 1317.88] Guys, let us know. +[1317.88 --> 1318.88] Let us know. +[1318.88 --> 1319.88] What would you say? +[1319.88 --> 1320.88] Twitter, Twitch.tv. +[1320.88 --> 1324.88] I think it's an old people thing to say the dot in a website. +[1324.88 --> 1326.88] So you'd be like Facebook com? +[1326.88 --> 1327.88] No. +[1327.88 --> 1328.88] That's just Facebook. +[1328.88 --> 1331.88] Like I don't think you say dot stuff. +[1331.88 --> 1332.88] Like you never say the ending. +[1332.88 --> 1334.88] Yeah, I don't think so. +[1334.88 --> 1335.88] But maybe I'm mistaken. +[1335.88 --> 1336.88] Maybe I'm mistaken. +[1336.88 --> 1337.88] But I don't say Facebook.com. +[1337.88 --> 1338.88] I say Facebook. +[1338.88 --> 1340.88] I read something really interesting. +[1340.88 --> 1342.88] Apparently, you know what? +[1342.88 --> 1343.88] I don't know if I put it in the doc or not. +[1343.88 --> 1344.88] Let me check. +[1344.88 --> 1345.88] Okay, don't worry. +[1345.88 --> 1346.88] We're going to get to this in a moment. +[1346.88 --> 1348.88] I say Twitch.tv when I'm referencing the company. +[1348.88 --> 1350.88] I say Twitch when I'm referencing the website. +[1350.88 --> 1351.88] Okay. +[1351.88 --> 1352.88] This is sort of unrelated. +[1352.88 --> 1353.88] Oh, bollocks. +[1353.88 --> 1354.88] Where did it go? +[1354.88 --> 1355.88] What are you talking about? +[1355.88 --> 1356.88] Okay. +[1356.88 --> 1358.88] I saw an interesting article. +[1358.88 --> 1365.88] It was like a linguistics article about the way that the period is changing in meaning +[1365.88 --> 1370.88] to mean irony or anger. +[1370.88 --> 1375.88] Because so many sentences in text message communication end without periods. +[1375.88 --> 1380.88] And I have at times been called a grammar Nazi. +[1380.88 --> 1384.88] And yet I find myself very often not using a period. +[1384.88 --> 1389.88] Question marks, exclamation marks are much more likely to be used when appropriate. +[1389.88 --> 1391.88] And I think it was even commas. +[1391.88 --> 1392.88] But don't quote me on that part. +[1392.88 --> 1395.88] But the period was much less likely to be used. +[1395.88 --> 1401.88] I think it was something like 30 to 40% of the situations where it would be appropriate, +[1401.88 --> 1402.88] a period was being used. +[1402.88 --> 1406.88] I see on forums and stuff, I see it much more commonly properly used. +[1406.88 --> 1410.88] But if I'm doing instant communication like Steam chat or something like that, +[1410.88 --> 1413.88] or if I'm doing text messages, if someone uses a period, I'm usually like, whoa. +[1413.88 --> 1414.88] And that's exactly it. +[1414.88 --> 1419.88] Online communication, I think, was something like 10 to 15% more likely for people to use +[1419.88 --> 1420.88] a period. +[1420.88 --> 1422.88] And then text messages were the worst. +[1422.88 --> 1428.88] And it stems from things like 160 character or 140 character limits on SMS and Twitter. +[1428.88 --> 1429.88] And it's like, I don't know if I'm going to be a person like that. +[1429.88 --> 1435.88] But the reason the article was written was because a textbook writer's son was reading +[1435.88 --> 1436.88] the textbook. +[1436.88 --> 1437.88] I guess, you know, proofreading exercise. +[1437.88 --> 1441.88] You've got to leverage that free labor when you can before they move out. +[1441.88 --> 1446.88] And was like, it seems like you're angry at the way it's written. +[1446.88 --> 1450.88] And then the example given in the article was like, like a, it was like a text message +[1450.88 --> 1451.88] screenshot. +[1451.88 --> 1452.88] It was like, are you mad? +[1452.88 --> 1454.88] And then it said, no, period. +[1454.88 --> 1455.88] What does that mean? +[1455.88 --> 1456.88] That means yes. +[1456.88 --> 1457.88] Right? +[1457.88 --> 1461.88] Because when I was reading the article, I was like, no. +[1461.88 --> 1464.88] And then I saw that example. +[1464.88 --> 1465.88] And they're like, are you sure? +[1465.88 --> 1466.88] No, period. +[1466.88 --> 1467.88] Absolutely. +[1467.88 --> 1469.88] That means yes. +[1469.88 --> 1470.88] When did this happen? +[1470.88 --> 1473.88] I think that's been going on for a really long time. +[1473.88 --> 1474.88] I don't think that's very new. +[1474.88 --> 1476.88] No, it's not new. +[1476.88 --> 1477.88] But why didn't I notice? +[1477.88 --> 1478.88] I'm old. +[1478.88 --> 1479.88] You are old. +[1479.88 --> 1480.88] I know. +[1480.88 --> 1481.88] Because I noticed and everyone else noticed. +[1481.88 --> 1484.88] Why do you remind me of these things? +[1484.88 --> 1486.88] Why do I ask you these things? +[1486.88 --> 1488.88] Someone says, dot's not an old thing. +[1488.88 --> 1493.88] I either say Twitch or Twitch.tv or LinesTechTips.com. +[1493.88 --> 1496.88] The Septagon is digging the shades. +[1496.88 --> 1497.88] Thank you. +[1497.88 --> 1499.88] These were, these are the most expensive. +[1499.88 --> 1504.88] I think these are the most expensive piece of apparel I own. +[1504.88 --> 1506.88] They're Oakley's maybe, yeah. +[1506.88 --> 1507.88] Yeah. +[1507.88 --> 1510.88] Because I, like I always used to lose sunglasses. +[1510.88 --> 1513.88] So what I did was like, I really wanted some nice sunglasses. +[1513.88 --> 1517.88] And I, and my wife, believe it or not, was basically like, look, +[1517.88 --> 1520.88] we'll get you cheap sunglasses. +[1520.88 --> 1525.88] And if you cannot lose them or break them for whatever period of time she gave me, +[1525.88 --> 1527.88] then you can buy whichever ones you want. +[1527.88 --> 1529.88] And I was like, okay. +[1529.88 --> 1531.88] She really does have to manage me that way. +[1531.88 --> 1532.88] It's sort of sad. +[1532.88 --> 1534.88] But I made it through the trial period. +[1534.88 --> 1538.88] So I got myself some nice, some nice Oakley's and I've taken extremely good care of them. +[1538.88 --> 1540.88] You've had those as long as I've known you. +[1540.88 --> 1541.88] They don't have any scratches on them. +[1541.88 --> 1542.88] Nope. +[1542.88 --> 1543.88] Pretty much whatsoever. +[1543.88 --> 1544.88] I keep them in their case. +[1544.88 --> 1546.88] But I, I digress. +[1547.88 --> 1548.88] Alright. +[1548.88 --> 1551.88] We should do a Twitter blitz on the period thing and we should move on to the Twitch thing. +[1551.88 --> 1552.88] Yes. +[1552.88 --> 1553.88] I do want to move on to the Twitch thing. +[1553.88 --> 1556.88] Please inform everyone about the World Cancer Day Folding Week. +[1556.88 --> 1557.88] Yes. +[1557.88 --> 1558.88] World Cancer Day Folding Week. +[1558.88 --> 1559.88] Only two days left. +[1559.88 --> 1560.88] Better than nothing. +[1560.88 --> 1563.88] There's more information in the Linus Tech Tips Folding at Home forum section. +[1563.88 --> 1565.88] Do you think Nvidia will come up with a GTX 7? +[1565.88 --> 1566.88] I got no idea, man. +[1566.88 --> 1570.88] I don't want to speculate on cards that, that aren't out yet. +[1570.88 --> 1572.88] Where did I get my Domo plush? +[1572.88 --> 1573.88] It was on Amazon. +[1573.88 --> 1576.88] Bummer about Austin Evans' pad and burning up. +[1576.88 --> 1578.88] Yes, it was. +[1578.88 --> 1581.88] Although there should be some news about something to do with that tomorrow. +[1581.88 --> 1585.88] Do you think the concept of transcendence is possible? +[1585.88 --> 1586.88] This is getting pretty deep. +[1586.88 --> 1588.88] By the way, love the show. +[1588.88 --> 1592.88] Constantinos C. +[1592.88 --> 1597.88] Do I think the concept of transcendence is possible? +[1597.88 --> 1598.88] It depends what you mean. +[1598.88 --> 1599.88] I think you can. +[1599.88 --> 1601.88] I think a genre can be transcended. +[1602.88 --> 1605.88] I think a state of consciousness can be transcended. +[1605.88 --> 1608.88] Would you disagree with that? +[1608.88 --> 1610.88] Depending on what state you're in in the first place. +[1610.88 --> 1611.88] Yeah, I'm going to say that really. +[1611.88 --> 1613.88] I think there's a top level. +[1613.88 --> 1618.88] You know, I think if you spend your life in a drunken stupor, you can transcend that. +[1618.88 --> 1619.88] Yeah. +[1619.88 --> 1620.88] But I don't think what. +[1620.88 --> 1624.88] If you're in a coma, would coming out of the coma be transcending a mental state? +[1624.88 --> 1625.88] Potentially. +[1625.88 --> 1626.88] Okay, you know what? +[1626.88 --> 1627.88] I don't want to get into this. +[1627.88 --> 1629.88] We're defining it way too much. +[1629.88 --> 1630.88] Michael says Terminator. +[1630.88 --> 1631.88] Terminator. +[1631.88 --> 1633.88] Thank you, Michael, for bringing us back on topic. +[1633.88 --> 1634.88] All right, so let's move. +[1634.88 --> 1635.88] Terminator! +[1635.88 --> 1636.88] Yeah! +[1636.88 --> 1639.88] I think he's talking about your glasses. +[1639.88 --> 1641.88] Oh, that makes more sense. +[1641.88 --> 1642.88] Yeah. +[1642.88 --> 1650.88] All right, so Twitch TV is fourth in US peak traffic as of, I think it was a week ago. +[1650.88 --> 1651.88] What? +[1651.88 --> 1653.88] You have got to be kidding me. +[1653.88 --> 1656.88] The companies only existed for three years. +[1656.88 --> 1660.88] Now, okay, I think the stat is a little bit deceptive. +[1660.88 --> 1662.88] And I will explain why. +[1662.88 --> 1663.88] Okay. +[1663.88 --> 1669.88] Because one of the things about Twitch TV is the inefficiency of their broadcasting. +[1669.88 --> 1676.88] They do not transcode their broadcasts prior to broadcasting them. +[1676.88 --> 1683.88] So, that's why when we cranked our bitrate up to 8500 kilobit per second, basically no +[1683.88 --> 1685.88] one could watch the stream. +[1685.88 --> 1687.88] Which we didn't really realize. +[1687.88 --> 1688.88] No. +[1688.88 --> 1694.88] Because I assumed that they were able to more easily transcode on the fly. +[1694.88 --> 1699.88] But what, they can transcode on the fly, and that's how people can watch a 1080p stream +[1699.88 --> 1705.88] at 720p, but when you feed them a huge file, like a massive bitrate file, they have a lot +[1705.88 --> 1706.88] more difficult time with it. +[1706.88 --> 1708.88] They're not able to do that much with it. +[1708.88 --> 1712.88] Because even with their one minute delay, that's not a ton of time. +[1712.88 --> 1719.88] And I remember talking to their COO back at PAX, where he was just basically saying, +[1719.88 --> 1726.88] he's like, yeah, look, one of the reasons that we need so much bandwidth is that a lot of the content +[1726.88 --> 1730.88] is going out in pretty much the form that people are broadcasting it in. +[1730.88 --> 1736.88] So when you watch something in original quality on Twitch TV, you are getting original quality +[1736.88 --> 1740.88] if both of the network connections and Twitch at the time can handle it. +[1740.88 --> 1741.88] Which is insane. +[1741.88 --> 1746.88] When you select original on YouTube, even for something like 4K content, you are getting +[1746.88 --> 1749.88] a seriously downsampled piece of content. +[1749.88 --> 1754.88] In fact, a great example of that is, look at that, I still have the tweet up. +[1754.88 --> 1761.88] Marcus Brownlee, MKBHD, is actually, I don't want to use the word bitching, but it seems appropriate +[1761.88 --> 1768.88] here, is complaining about the compression on YouTube, yeah, it's not, I can't zoom for some reason, +[1768.88 --> 1774.88] is complaining about compression on YouTube changing even the colors in his videos +[1774.88 --> 1780.88] to the point where his shirt goes from looking vibrant and orange to looking kind of dull and red. +[1780.88 --> 1786.88] And so that is what you're getting on other platforms, whereas Twitch is pretty much giving you what... +[1786.88 --> 1787.88] Exactly what it is. +[1787.88 --> 1795.88] Yeah, so while their bandwidth use is through the roof, I don't necessarily think that gaming +[1795.88 --> 1798.88] is more popular than Hulu, necessarily. +[1798.88 --> 1800.88] Right, because Hulu is going to be... +[1800.88 --> 1801.88] Much more efficient. +[1801.88 --> 1802.88] Yeah. +[1802.88 --> 1804.88] As is Netflix, as is YouTube. +[1804.88 --> 1805.88] It still shows growth. +[1805.88 --> 1806.88] It still shows amazing growth. +[1806.88 --> 1812.88] So maybe, like, bandwidth isn't the best way of measuring this while your computer crashes, +[1812.88 --> 1814.88] but it still does show growth. +[1814.88 --> 1817.88] So there's some actually really interesting stats. +[1817.88 --> 1822.88] The three most watched games in 2013 were League of Legends, Dota 2, and Starcraft 2, +[1822.88 --> 1824.88] which is all not surprising whatsoever. +[1824.88 --> 1829.88] League of Legends viewing has gone up 258% since 2012, which is insane. +[1829.88 --> 1837.88] But even more insane, I guess because it's newer, is Dota 2 viewing has gone up 508% since 2012. +[1837.88 --> 1844.88] They're saying that when people look back in the future, they will see 2013 as the tipping point for streaming, +[1844.88 --> 1846.88] and I don't see that surprising at all. +[1846.88 --> 1849.88] Basically everyone I know now has a Netflix account and is streaming movies, +[1849.88 --> 1854.88] and basically everyone I know that's into gaming has watched some sort of Twitch stream at some point in time, +[1854.88 --> 1857.88] even if that was just for a gaming competition. +[1857.88 --> 1863.88] And then I do know a few people that just watch Twitch streams almost 24-7, which is pretty insane as well. +[1863.88 --> 1867.88] Which is another thing that I actually think is probably a little bit deceptive about these numbers, +[1867.88 --> 1875.88] because I think that compared to a service like Netflix, where if someone starts streaming a Netflix movie, +[1875.88 --> 1876.88] They're going to sit and watch. +[1876.88 --> 1879.88] They're very likely to be actually in front of that screen. +[1879.88 --> 1886.88] You look at the way that game streaming works, people aren't a lot of the time watching the game. +[1886.88 --> 1888.88] This is a radio broadcast. +[1888.88 --> 1889.88] Often. +[1889.88 --> 1893.88] And watching the game is often, yeah, it's entertaining and it's there, +[1893.88 --> 1898.88] but you might actually have it minimized, or you might actually have it tucked away on a secondary monitor. +[1898.88 --> 1899.88] Or you just tab in and out every once in a while. +[1899.88 --> 1900.88] Tab in and out. +[1900.88 --> 1902.88] You've got it running on your tablet next to your computer, +[1902.88 --> 1905.88] and a lot of the time you're not giving it your undivided attention. +[1905.88 --> 1907.88] So Twitch is a big deal. +[1907.88 --> 1908.88] Gaming is a big deal. +[1908.88 --> 1914.88] I just don't think that, you know, comparing it to some of these other things. +[1914.88 --> 1917.88] I don't think that it's one-fifth of what YouTube, or... +[1917.88 --> 1918.88] Of what you do. +[1918.88 --> 1919.88] Yeah. +[1919.88 --> 1922.88] And I don't think it's a twelfth of YouTube either. +[1922.88 --> 1926.88] Because it is pushing that much, well, the Google thing isn't just YouTube. +[1926.88 --> 1927.88] Yeah, the bandwidth. +[1927.88 --> 1928.88] Oh my, okay, that's true. +[1928.88 --> 1929.88] Yeah. +[1929.88 --> 1934.88] I don't think it's even one-twelfth of YouTube, never mind being whatever proportion of that is actually YouTube. +[1934.88 --> 1935.88] Yeah. +[1935.88 --> 1936.88] So, yeah. +[1936.88 --> 1941.88] Anyways, the average age of users is 21 years old, although I seriously doubt that. +[1941.88 --> 1943.88] Just putting that out there. +[1943.88 --> 1946.88] I mean, it's one of those things where I can't tell people what to do, +[1946.88 --> 1950.88] but I had someone ask about registering on our forum. +[1950.88 --> 1955.88] They said that they put in their birthday, and the forum said they couldn't join because they weren't 13. +[1955.88 --> 1970.88] I suspect that a lot of people circumvent that in a way that is pretty evident if you look at Steam's stats for how many of their users are born on January the 1st. +[1970.88 --> 1971.88] That's why. +[1971.88 --> 1975.88] Last time we brought that up, someone was like, but I'm actually born on January the 1st. +[1975.88 --> 1977.88] Like, oh, wow, that's actually surprising. +[1977.88 --> 1980.88] Most people that say they're born on January the 1st really were not. +[1980.88 --> 1982.88] 93%. +[1982.88 --> 1984.88] This is old news. +[1984.88 --> 1990.88] This is from, like, 2011, so it might have changed now, but the point is that people don't fill out their birthdays correctly when they... +[1990.88 --> 1991.88] I'm gonna be 100% honest. +[1991.88 --> 1994.88] When I go fill out a birthday, it's too... +[1994.88 --> 1996.88] I'm too lazy to actually put in the accurate one. +[1996.88 --> 2001.88] Like, I'm always old enough for everything, but I just click on the dropdown, spin, and then click on something. +[2001.88 --> 2002.88] I actually do it. +[2002.88 --> 2003.88] Really? +[2003.88 --> 2004.88] I enter my birthday, yeah. +[2004.88 --> 2005.88] I never do. +[2005.88 --> 2006.88] I know. +[2006.88 --> 2007.88] No, it's a weird, like, OCD thing. +[2007.88 --> 2013.88] I do for things that I'm like, oh, crap, I'm really worried about recovering this account at some point in time, and they might ask me how old I am. +[2013.88 --> 2014.88] Mmm. +[2014.88 --> 2015.88] So I do for that kind of stuff. +[2015.88 --> 2018.88] But a lot of the time on Steam, it's actually nothing to do with your account creation process. +[2018.88 --> 2020.88] You might even be signed in, which is ridiculous. +[2020.88 --> 2022.88] Yeah, you're signed in, which is ridiculous. +[2022.88 --> 2023.88] Yeah. +[2023.88 --> 2025.88] Except if they have family sharing enabled. +[2025.88 --> 2026.88] Yeah, but they didn't years ago. +[2026.88 --> 2027.88] So, like, in the future, this might not... +[2027.88 --> 2028.88] I know, I know. +[2028.88 --> 2030.88] I've always been like, what the hell, I'm logged in. +[2030.88 --> 2037.88] And then when you accidentally just click next, and it's default is not old enough, and you just get locked out for, like, a day. +[2037.88 --> 2038.88] Yeah, that's ridiculous. +[2038.88 --> 2039.88] Like, dude, like, come on. +[2039.88 --> 2040.88] It's like, please stop. +[2040.88 --> 2042.88] Some other interesting stats. +[2042.88 --> 2049.88] So, 68% of Twitch users have decreased their TV watching in order to watch more Twitch. +[2049.88 --> 2056.88] 58% of their 45 million monthly unique visitors watch more than 20 hours per week. +[2056.88 --> 2059.88] And again, I think this is a stat that might be a little deceptive, because it's... +[2059.88 --> 2060.88] Idling and whatnot. +[2060.88 --> 2062.88] It's easy to leave a Twitch stream on while you're sleeping. +[2062.88 --> 2072.88] In fact, we had a problem back somewhere I used to live, where one of the tenants would just leave Twitch streams on all night. +[2072.88 --> 2087.88] And we had some bandwidth usage problems that our ISP was pretty annoyed about, because even streaming, like, you know, hours on Twitch, like, not an entire day on Twitch, you can use, like, 15, 20 gigs, like, no problem in a day. +[2087.88 --> 2090.88] And, you know, that full quality streaming. +[2090.88 --> 2097.88] So, that's just something, you know, that I think is, you know, we have to temper our enthusiasm a little bit. +[2097.88 --> 2099.88] No, I know. Like, it's still huge, but... +[2099.88 --> 2100.88] It's still massive. +[2100.88 --> 2108.88] Yeah, so, that comes out to Twitch users running an average of 106 minutes of content per day, and 12 billion minutes every month. +[2108.88 --> 2110.88] Not each user, but in total. +[2110.88 --> 2112.88] 12 billion minutes every month, which is... +[2112.88 --> 2114.88] How many lives is that? +[2114.88 --> 2123.88] How many lives is that? Does someone want to do the math and maybe tweet me with how many lives that is per month that are basically sacrificed to the Twitch gods? +[2123.88 --> 2124.88] You know, I was... +[2124.88 --> 2126.88] I wonder how many lives have been sacrificed to the Linus Tech Tips gods. +[2126.88 --> 2130.88] I was just gonna tell you. I looked at it the other day, that's what made me think of this. +[2130.88 --> 2133.88] Actually, this made me think of that, and I went and looked at our numbers. +[2133.88 --> 2140.88] So, every day, I think about a year and a half, gets sacrificed to the Linus Tech Tips gods. +[2140.88 --> 2142.88] Um, in terms of minutes watched. +[2142.88 --> 2144.88] So, has that been a life yet? +[2144.88 --> 2147.88] Oh, more. Oh, yeah. Every day. A year and a half. +[2147.88 --> 2149.88] So, that means in a year, about... +[2149.88 --> 2150.88] Oh, wow. +[2150.88 --> 2154.88] Yeah. 500 years or so, get sacrificed to the Linus Tech Tips gods. +[2154.88 --> 2155.88] Oh, wow. +[2155.88 --> 2157.88] Isn't that crazy? +[2157.88 --> 2159.88] That is pretty crazy, actually. +[2159.88 --> 2161.88] Yeah. I mean, you spread it out among enough people and... +[2161.88 --> 2162.88] We need to increase that number. +[2162.88 --> 2163.88] We have to increase that number? +[2163.88 --> 2165.88] We need to commit our genocide. +[2165.88 --> 2166.88] Our genocide. +[2166.88 --> 2168.88] Our base to genocide. +[2168.88 --> 2177.88] So, there's about 900,000 broadcasters per month. 5,100 of those are partnered. +[2177.88 --> 2181.88] So, a mass proportion of the broadcasters are not actually partnered. +[2181.88 --> 2186.88] And there are about 6 million total videos broadcast per month, which is pretty crazy. +[2186.88 --> 2187.88] An interesting statistic would... +[2187.88 --> 2192.88] I didn't think about doing this, would be to split down, like, how many broadcasts there are versus... +[2192.88 --> 2197.88] How many broadcasters versus how many videos, and how many videos versus how many minutes. +[2197.88 --> 2200.88] So, like, how long is the average broadcast seen for? +[2200.88 --> 2201.88] Right. +[2201.88 --> 2203.88] It'd be pretty interesting. +[2203.88 --> 2204.88] Alright. +[2204.88 --> 2206.88] No one has done the math yet on our... +[2206.88 --> 2207.88] Oh, okay. +[2207.88 --> 2208.88] There we go. +[2208.88 --> 2211.88] About 325 lives, says Mitch. +[2211.88 --> 2212.88] Oops. +[2212.88 --> 2213.88] Wrong one. +[2213.88 --> 2214.88] So, uh... +[2214.88 --> 2215.88] Yep. +[2215.88 --> 2216.88] Yeah. +[2216.88 --> 2218.88] Yoinkerman's like, yep, I always fall asleep to Twitch. +[2218.88 --> 2222.88] So, that's a thing that I just think is less likely to happen with a service like Netflix. +[2222.88 --> 2223.88] Yeah. +[2223.88 --> 2224.88] If they all live 90 years... +[2224.88 --> 2227.88] Well, because Netflix would stop at the end of the movie anyways, wouldn't it? +[2227.88 --> 2228.88] Depends. +[2228.88 --> 2230.88] If you're watching a show, it'll keep running. +[2230.88 --> 2232.88] Like, I've fallen asleep to Netflix before. +[2232.88 --> 2234.88] I'm sure that's happened at least, but not nearly as much. +[2234.88 --> 2235.88] Yeah. +[2235.88 --> 2236.88] I think it seems less likely. +[2236.88 --> 2237.88] Yeah, exactly. +[2237.88 --> 2240.88] And I've got a few people backing me up on always filling in the correct birthday. +[2240.88 --> 2242.88] Looney, thank you. +[2242.88 --> 2245.88] Jamuda says 86% of statistics are made up. +[2245.88 --> 2246.88] Thank you for that. +[2246.88 --> 2251.88] Um, okay, I had one person backing me up on always filling in the correct birthday. +[2251.88 --> 2252.88] And it would be Looney, too. +[2252.88 --> 2253.88] And it would be Looney, wouldn't it? +[2253.88 --> 2254.88] I love you, Looney. +[2254.88 --> 2255.88] Okay. +[2255.88 --> 2256.88] Fine, be like that. +[2256.88 --> 2257.88] That's awesome. +[2257.88 --> 2258.88] I see how it's gonna be. +[2258.88 --> 2259.88] Alright, so... +[2259.88 --> 2260.88] You wanna talk about your... +[2260.88 --> 2261.88] Yeah, I wanna talk about this. +[2261.88 --> 2267.88] So this is an Indiegogo campaign that I actually, um, that I, oh, you know what? +[2267.88 --> 2272.88] I don't know if you guys are gonna get audio from this or not. +[2272.88 --> 2276.88] Where is the, uh, where'd the, where'd the plug go? +[2276.88 --> 2277.88] Is that it? +[2277.88 --> 2278.88] Oh, I'm stepping on it. +[2278.88 --> 2279.88] Well, that explains it. +[2279.88 --> 2280.88] Alright, here we go. +[2280.88 --> 2281.88] I'm just gonna throw this in. +[2281.88 --> 2284.88] So this, my friends, is the AirDoc. +[2284.88 --> 2291.88] And I actually tweeted out about it and I, uh, and I posted a link on the forum before I had actually tried it. +[2291.88 --> 2294.88] Just cause I kinda looked at the video and I was like, oh, that's really cool. +[2294.88 --> 2295.88] Potentially. +[2295.88 --> 2298.88] I was totally not interested. +[2298.88 --> 2300.88] And then I watched the video and I was like, yep, okay, cool. +[2300.88 --> 2303.88] It's also a CardDoc, all built into one. +[2303.88 --> 2305.88] So we're out of the charger built into the base. +[2305.88 --> 2306.88] And then on the face here is foam. +[2306.88 --> 2309.88] Yeah, I just wanna skip to, you know what, whatever. +[2309.88 --> 2311.88] Uh, so the point is, he got in touch with me. +[2311.88 --> 2317.88] And, uh, so guys, it's, here, I'm just gonna throw the Indiegogo link in here. +[2317.88 --> 2318.88] It's not cheap. +[2318.88 --> 2324.88] I think it's about 75 bucks, um, even with the Indiegogo discount. +[2324.88 --> 2329.88] So I think it's gonna be about a hundred bucks retail, but it's really cool. +[2329.88 --> 2330.88] So check this out. +[2330.88 --> 2331.88] Here it is. +[2331.88 --> 2332.88] Oh, it's stuck. +[2332.88 --> 2333.88] Okay. +[2333.88 --> 2337.88] So it's a Qi wireless charger, and I should probably do this. +[2337.88 --> 2338.88] Okay. +[2338.88 --> 2340.88] And, uh, or charging dock. +[2340.88 --> 2342.88] So you got a micro USB here. +[2342.88 --> 2347.88] You can run that down to, uh, your, your cigarette outlet in your car or whatever else. +[2347.88 --> 2351.88] It comes with a kit that has, uh, where is it? +[2351.88 --> 2353.88] This is just like a pre-production one. +[2353.88 --> 2355.88] We're gonna be doing an unboxing and review. +[2355.88 --> 2358.88] So I'll give you guys full impressions once I've really had a chance to use it. +[2358.88 --> 2361.88] But I just wanna give you my initial impressions right now. +[2361.88 --> 2363.88] So it comes with the cigarette adapter. +[2363.88 --> 2364.88] It comes with a cable. +[2364.88 --> 2368.88] It comes with, uh, so I never really do unboxings like this anymore. +[2368.88 --> 2369.88] Yeah, yeah. +[2369.88 --> 2370.88] It's like back to the old days. +[2370.88 --> 2373.88] This thing is like batshit crazy. +[2373.88 --> 2374.88] Feel the material on there. +[2374.88 --> 2375.88] Whoa. +[2375.88 --> 2377.88] This could stick to anything. +[2377.88 --> 2380.88] I'm quite, like, I could probably stick it to your arm. +[2380.88 --> 2381.88] Yep. +[2381.88 --> 2382.88] Nice. +[2382.88 --> 2383.88] Not going anywhere. +[2383.88 --> 2385.88] We should leave it and see how long it lasts. +[2385.88 --> 2388.88] Yeah, we should see how long that stays there on his sweaty arm. +[2388.88 --> 2390.88] So it comes with all that stuff. +[2390.88 --> 2396.88] Then it comes with another, another piece here that is gotta be the best bendable arm I think +[2396.88 --> 2397.88] I've ever encountered. +[2397.88 --> 2400.88] It's about the thickness of my pinky. +[2400.88 --> 2401.88] And check this out. +[2401.88 --> 2405.88] That's what it takes to bend it. +[2405.88 --> 2407.88] And then it stays. +[2407.88 --> 2408.88] It doesn't go. +[2408.88 --> 2409.88] It just doesn't move anymore. +[2409.88 --> 2412.88] And then it's got, uh, an articulating arm here. +[2412.88 --> 2416.88] And then it's got, like, a more standard suction cup on the bottom piece here. +[2416.88 --> 2417.88] Okay. +[2417.88 --> 2421.88] But the real magic, and they actually, this is hilarious because they call it magic. +[2421.88 --> 2422.88] Okay. +[2422.88 --> 2423.88] Let's see. +[2423.88 --> 2424.88] What does he say? +[2424.88 --> 2425.88] Okay. +[2425.88 --> 2426.88] Okay. +[2426.88 --> 2427.88] Let's just film out on this. +[2427.88 --> 2434.88] Magic foam and magnets hold the phone to the air dock here. +[2434.88 --> 2435.88] Really? +[2435.88 --> 2436.88] Magic foam? +[2436.88 --> 2440.88] And magnets is basically the same as saying they're magic. +[2440.88 --> 2443.88] So that's like saying that there's magic holding the magic. +[2443.88 --> 2448.88] And then it has wireless charging, which in my mind is also magic because it works with +[2448.88 --> 2449.88] magnets, which are magic. +[2449.88 --> 2452.88] So it's like magic cubed. +[2452.88 --> 2458.38] And the thing that really got my attention when I looked at the Indiegogo video was the +[2458.38 --> 2462.88] demo where he takes a phone, puts it on like this, and listen to this. +[2462.88 --> 2467.88] He loves the sound. +[2467.88 --> 2468.88] The sound is amazing. +[2468.88 --> 2469.88] Okay. +[2469.88 --> 2473.88] So this one came really dirty out of the box and really wasn't working that well. +[2473.88 --> 2475.88] And I was like, oh, my one doesn't stick to it at all. +[2475.88 --> 2476.88] I'm not impressed. +[2476.88 --> 2477.88] I don't like it. +[2477.88 --> 2479.88] So, but then what I did is I washed it. +[2479.88 --> 2481.88] So it's just, you just wash it with water. +[2481.88 --> 2482.88] I mean, be careful. +[2482.88 --> 2485.88] Don't put like water all over it or anything like that. +[2485.88 --> 2490.38] Um, cause there's like electronics inside and stuff, but you just kind of wash off the +[2490.38 --> 2494.88] surface and then boom, you throw a phone on it, shake it around. +[2494.88 --> 2495.88] It's going to, okay. +[2495.88 --> 2496.88] So it's not perfect. +[2496.88 --> 2502.38] Uh, it's going to hold up pretty well to any kind of normal vibration that you would +[2502.38 --> 2505.88] have in a car, especially if you're at an angle that's somewhat reasonable. +[2505.88 --> 2509.88] So this is on an HTC One, which is not a validated device. +[2509.88 --> 2512.38] Um, if you give me your G2 for a sec. +[2512.38 --> 2513.38] Okay. +[2513.38 --> 2515.38] Let's just go ahead. +[2515.38 --> 2516.38] Yeah. +[2516.38 --> 2517.38] There we go. +[2517.38 --> 2519.88] So let's go ahead and stick the G2 to it. +[2519.88 --> 2524.88] So this is not a validated device either, but plastic back devices are going to be more +[2524.88 --> 2525.88] able to stick to it. +[2525.88 --> 2528.88] So I can shake that around and listen to this. +[2528.88 --> 2529.88] So I don't know. +[2529.88 --> 2535.88] I'm scared of it ripping the back off at some point in time. +[2535.88 --> 2539.88] If you have a, if you have a back removable device, like I bet you my old S3, it would +[2539.88 --> 2540.88] just take the back right off. +[2540.88 --> 2542.88] So, and it does have magnets in it too. +[2542.88 --> 2547.88] So some phones and tablets actually have metal plates in them for magnetic mounting. +[2547.88 --> 2548.88] Right? +[2548.88 --> 2549.88] Yeah. +[2549.88 --> 2550.88] So that holds it on. +[2550.88 --> 2553.88] And then the magic foam, which is actually, I think it's some kind of nano thing. +[2553.88 --> 2555.88] The magic foam holds it in place. +[2555.88 --> 2559.88] So I think it's really cool, especially cause just having it in your car and then just being +[2559.88 --> 2564.88] like bloop and it charges and it sits there well enough that you can easily do whatever +[2564.88 --> 2565.88] navigation you're going to do. +[2565.88 --> 2566.88] It's not going to come off in transit. +[2566.88 --> 2570.88] So we're going to do a full video of it, but I just thought that was really cool and +[2570.88 --> 2573.88] I wanted to call out their IndieGoGo campaign and give you guys an opportunity to get +[2573.88 --> 2574.88] it for $25 less. +[2574.88 --> 2578.88] This thing is still sticking to my arm somehow, despite being bumped like 90 times. +[2578.88 --> 2580.88] Yeah, of course it's sticking to your arm. +[2580.88 --> 2581.88] Oh, hold on. +[2581.88 --> 2582.88] Can I get it off? +[2582.88 --> 2583.88] Yeah, there we go. +[2583.88 --> 2584.88] Okay, so I was able to pull it off. +[2584.88 --> 2585.88] So you can see how dirty he is. +[2585.88 --> 2588.88] It was gross before you put it on my arm. +[2588.88 --> 2589.88] See the skin cells? +[2589.88 --> 2590.88] Ew. +[2590.88 --> 2591.88] How would you... +[2591.88 --> 2592.88] Ugh. +[2592.88 --> 2594.88] I've got a troll of you, you know. +[2594.88 --> 2595.88] I know. +[2595.88 --> 2596.88] It's all about the troll. +[2596.88 --> 2597.88] Are we moving on to the next thing? +[2597.88 --> 2598.88] Yeah, let's move on to the next thing. +[2598.88 --> 2603.88] Okay, so Oculus Rift, it has a launch title and they're actually going to be co-publishing +[2603.88 --> 2604.88] it, which is really interesting. +[2604.88 --> 2609.88] They've been doing a lot of stuff lately in that realm, but the idea that they have an +[2609.88 --> 2614.88] actual exclusive launch title and the fact that it's Eve Valkyrie is kind of huge. +[2614.88 --> 2621.88] Because Eve Valkyrie has won tons of awards like PC Game of the Year at E3 2013, or PC +[2621.88 --> 2626.88] Game of 2013 from PC Gamers, which is pretty crazy awesome. +[2626.88 --> 2631.88] And it's also, in my opinion, probably the most well developed game for Rift. +[2631.88 --> 2632.88] Did you try it? +[2632.88 --> 2633.88] There's been games that have been made for Rift. +[2633.88 --> 2634.88] I have not. +[2634.88 --> 2635.88] Oh, it's amazing. +[2635.88 --> 2637.88] But I've seen like every possible video on the internet about it. +[2637.88 --> 2638.88] It is so amazing. +[2638.88 --> 2640.88] It's like, it's unlike anything you've ever tried. +[2640.88 --> 2641.88] Exactly. +[2641.88 --> 2643.88] Which is exactly what they need. +[2643.88 --> 2647.88] Oculus Rift needs that killer app to bring people to Oculus Rift, because there's all these +[2647.88 --> 2651.88] different virtual reality goggles coming out and they're going to need something that +[2651.88 --> 2652.88] splits them apart. +[2652.88 --> 2656.88] So they're obviously moving in that direction with this and other things. +[2656.88 --> 2661.88] Those other things being recruiting people like 3D artists, animators, gameplay engineers, +[2661.88 --> 2663.88] and more, which they're doing right now. +[2663.88 --> 2665.88] They're actively trying to hire these people. +[2665.88 --> 2667.88] So if you are one of those, be sure to check it out. +[2667.88 --> 2674.88] Also, they have hired David Demartini, which is kind of scary because he was the Senior Vice +[2674.88 --> 2676.88] President at Electronics Arts. +[2676.88 --> 2678.88] Yay. +[2678.88 --> 2680.88] Helping publishing. +[2680.88 --> 2682.88] I don't like it. +[2682.88 --> 2683.88] Anyways, moving on. +[2683.88 --> 2685.88] I have another thing I don't like about it. +[2685.88 --> 2692.88] I mean, okay, I guess it's fine as long as it's not exclusive, but you've written here +[2692.88 --> 2695.88] first exclusive Oculus Rift launch title. +[2695.88 --> 2696.88] Is that correct? +[2696.88 --> 2697.88] Launch title? +[2697.88 --> 2698.88] Yeah. +[2698.88 --> 2699.88] At launch. +[2699.88 --> 2700.88] It's only going to be on Rift at launch. +[2700.88 --> 2701.88] Okay. +[2701.88 --> 2703.88] I don't know if it's like forevers. +[2703.88 --> 2704.88] Yeah. +[2704.88 --> 2709.88] I mean, the direction that I see the industry moving is less exclusivity and more openness. +[2709.88 --> 2714.88] And I just, I feel like if you try to turn Rift into... +[2714.88 --> 2716.88] It says exclusive. +[2716.88 --> 2717.88] Yeah. +[2717.88 --> 2719.88] Now, I don't know if that's going to be forever exclusive. +[2719.88 --> 2720.88] I don't know if that's just... +[2720.88 --> 2722.88] Some games are launch exclusives. +[2722.88 --> 2723.88] Right. +[2723.88 --> 2726.88] We've seen that actually quite a bit where it's exclusive at launch and then it can be +[2726.88 --> 2727.88] distributed after that. +[2727.88 --> 2728.88] And I mean, I get it. +[2728.88 --> 2729.88] I mean, I get it. +[2729.88 --> 2734.88] Because developing for a particular VR goggle is going to be different from developing for +[2734.88 --> 2735.88] another one. +[2735.88 --> 2740.88] And if I'm Oculus and I'm investing heavily into this piece of hardware and the marketing +[2740.88 --> 2742.88] and the production and all... +[2742.88 --> 2749.88] And hiring John freaking Carmack and all this stuff, I want to make money on my investment. +[2749.88 --> 2753.88] But I just, you know, I don't want to see... +[2753.88 --> 2761.88] I mean, even Nintendo has finally begun to yield on first party titles for their first +[2761.88 --> 2762.88] party systems. +[2762.88 --> 2766.88] They haven't said what they're doing exactly, but they'll have some mobile content coming. +[2766.88 --> 2767.88] Yeah. +[2767.88 --> 2770.88] But most people are assuming they're going to be extremely short demos. +[2770.88 --> 2772.88] And I'm assuming that too. +[2772.88 --> 2773.88] Wallpapers. +[2773.88 --> 2774.88] And I'm assuming that too. +[2774.88 --> 2776.88] But progress is progress. +[2776.88 --> 2777.88] Yeah, that's true. +[2777.88 --> 2782.88] But like a two minute demo and a wallpaper, I don't think is exactly what we need. +[2782.88 --> 2784.88] I don't need more than that. +[2784.88 --> 2785.88] But I don't know. +[2785.88 --> 2789.88] So David Demartini is going to be working with... +[2789.88 --> 2793.88] He's going to be figuring out how to partner effectively with big partners, small developers, +[2793.88 --> 2796.88] all the way to the individual who wants to make something for the Rift, which is interesting +[2796.88 --> 2797.88] and a good idea. +[2797.88 --> 2799.88] He's from EA and that's scary. +[2799.88 --> 2800.88] I mean, I don't know. +[2800.88 --> 2804.88] With all of that said, just because someone's from EA doesn't mean that they're evil. +[2804.88 --> 2805.88] I know. +[2805.88 --> 2809.88] And I'm hoping that maybe he left EA because he wanted to do something different. +[2809.88 --> 2814.88] And I'm hoping that Oculus was clever enough to hire someone that has a philosophy that's +[2814.88 --> 2815.88] similar to theirs. +[2815.88 --> 2816.88] Yes. +[2816.88 --> 2821.88] And I mean, anything that pushes more Oculus Rift development and more titles, honestly, +[2821.88 --> 2824.88] is a big thumbs up from me because I am buying one. +[2824.88 --> 2825.88] 100%. +[2825.88 --> 2827.88] You guys can mark my words. +[2827.88 --> 2833.88] If I don't buy one, then you can, I don't know, call me foul names or something like that. +[2833.88 --> 2839.88] I'm very probably planning on just whenever the next developer kit comes out, retiring +[2839.88 --> 2842.88] mine and giving it to like the high school I went to and then just moving on to the next +[2842.88 --> 2843.88] one. +[2843.88 --> 2850.88] Because if they release a developer kit for Crystal Cove, oh, all over that. +[2850.88 --> 2852.88] Like that thing looks so cool. +[2852.88 --> 2854.88] And I'd love to have a 1080p panel. +[2854.88 --> 2859.88] And the OLED thing, the low persistence OLED. +[2859.88 --> 2860.88] Yeah. +[2860.88 --> 2861.88] Oh my goodness. +[2861.88 --> 2862.88] That sounds amazing. +[2862.88 --> 2863.88] So down for that. +[2863.88 --> 2864.88] All right. +[2864.88 --> 2865.88] So Sony. +[2865.88 --> 2868.88] Does something that's not surprising. +[2868.88 --> 2872.88] Well, I was going to pretend it was a little surprising. +[2872.88 --> 2873.88] It's not that surprising. +[2873.88 --> 2880.88] I mean, when's the last time you actually saw someone using a Sony VAIO notebook? +[2880.88 --> 2882.88] Probably when I used to work in a repair shop. +[2882.88 --> 2884.88] Not, not, not, not. +[2884.88 --> 2885.88] I'm not saying. +[2885.88 --> 2886.88] Oh, snap. +[2886.88 --> 2888.88] I didn't mean it that way. +[2888.88 --> 2891.88] I just meant because I saw a lot more laptops then. +[2891.88 --> 2894.88] We didn't particularly see a lot of VAIOs there. +[2894.88 --> 2900.88] But like, yeah, honestly, I don't see them a ton to be completely honest. +[2900.88 --> 2906.88] Usually in classrooms you see either an army of Macs or you're somewhere that isn't business +[2906.88 --> 2908.88] and you see an army of cheap laptops. +[2908.88 --> 2909.88] So it's. +[2909.88 --> 2913.88] Or an army of expensive laptops that are HP or Dell. +[2913.88 --> 2914.88] Yeah. +[2914.88 --> 2915.88] Or like business class. +[2915.88 --> 2916.88] Or ThinkPads. +[2916.88 --> 2917.88] Yeah. +[2917.88 --> 2918.88] Yeah. +[2918.88 --> 2923.88] I just, and you know, looking at some of the stuff that they've done over the last little +[2923.88 --> 2926.88] while, I just kind of scratched my head. +[2926.88 --> 2931.88] Like the, the, the, the, the VAIO Duo 13 is actually an ultra book that I will be giving +[2931.88 --> 2932.88] away shortly. +[2932.88 --> 2935.88] I have a huge giveaway to announce in the next little while here. +[2935.88 --> 2939.88] Um, there'll be a proper video about it, but I'm going to give you guys a sneak preview. +[2939.88 --> 2945.88] But as much as it's an interesting notebook and it's a high end notebook and to, to get +[2945.88 --> 2947.88] it for free in a giveaway will be awesome. +[2947.88 --> 2948.88] Don't worry. +[2948.88 --> 2949.88] Don't worry. +[2949.88 --> 2953.88] It has some design decisions that were made that I just kind of look at and I go, what +[2953.88 --> 2954.88] were you thinking? +[2954.88 --> 2955.88] Which one was that? +[2955.88 --> 2958.88] This was the one it, so it's a, it's a convertible. +[2958.88 --> 2962.88] So basically when the screen comes up, it goes, I want to sort of make this visual for +[2962.88 --> 2964.88] them in a way that's easy to understand. +[2964.88 --> 2968.88] So the screen comes up like this and then slides down like that. +[2968.88 --> 2970.88] So it only goes at a fixed angle. +[2970.88 --> 2971.88] You can adjust it. +[2971.88 --> 2975.88] And then the hinge back here is actually exposed. +[2975.88 --> 2980.88] Whereas something like this, which I think is called a pinwheel two in one makes a ton +[2980.88 --> 2981.88] more sense. +[2981.88 --> 2984.88] It's a notebook. +[2984.88 --> 2985.88] It's a tablet. +[2985.88 --> 2991.88] Nothing is exposed and I can fully adjust the angle of the screen when I'm not using +[2991.88 --> 2992.88] it as a tablet. +[2992.88 --> 2998.88] So yeah, I like, and I saw someone in the Twitch chat. +[2998.88 --> 3000.88] Well, I'm on a laptop right now. +[3000.88 --> 3001.88] It's like, yeah, they exist. +[3001.88 --> 3003.88] We're not trying to say that. +[3003.88 --> 3012.88] Um, it's just quite a few years ago, I saw them all the time and now not nearly as much. +[3012.88 --> 3013.88] That's more of where I'm going. +[3013.88 --> 3016.88] I mean, it can't be helping that the, uh, that PC sales have gone down. +[3016.88 --> 3017.88] What was it? +[3017.88 --> 3019.88] Seven percent in the last year. +[3019.88 --> 3027.88] And when you're someone like Sony where your market share is not, uh, you know, dominant, +[3027.88 --> 3030.88] um, that seven percent hurts a lot. +[3030.88 --> 3033.88] That might've been the difference between scraping by and not making it. +[3033.88 --> 3036.88] And I mean, Sony hasn't quite gotten over that. +[3036.88 --> 3039.88] They're not a premium brand anymore. +[3039.88 --> 3041.88] So they designed these products. +[3041.88 --> 3048.88] They put a lot of money into the R and D of bringing them to market and then they're not a premium brand anymore. +[3048.88 --> 3051.88] And I don't think people really accept it. +[3051.88 --> 3056.88] And I mean, there are regions where Sony still has, um, some brand mystique. +[3056.88 --> 3065.88] And quite honestly, I find it baffling when there are products that just aren't that great that somehow managed to have like this, +[3065.88 --> 3066.88] that get put on this pedestal. +[3066.88 --> 3072.88] I mean, products like honestly, Samsung, um, a lot of their stuff, fantastic. +[3072.88 --> 3076.88] Some of their stuff, how was anyone even accepting this? +[3076.88 --> 3082.88] I mean, their galaxy high end phones, the, the S3 and the S4, particularly the S4. +[3082.88 --> 3086.88] How was that competitive with a lot of the other stuff? +[3086.88 --> 3089.88] Yes. S3 was sorry. S4 build quality wise. +[3089.88 --> 3093.88] It just, it was not up to par with other devices that cost the same. +[3093.88 --> 3097.88] And I mean, Google came in and, you know, crapped all over everyone. +[3097.88 --> 3098.88] Yeah. That's interesting right now. +[3098.88 --> 3102.88] Like people have asked me about buying phones and I'm like, well, you have a few options. +[3102.88 --> 3103.88] They're all in the Google store. +[3104.88 --> 3108.88] If you're trying to buy a brand new phone, like just full out, buy a brand new phone. +[3108.88 --> 3111.88] I'm like, yeah, like there's, there's not a ton of options. +[3111.88 --> 3116.88] They're all in Google store because if you try and do price per performance outside of the Google store, like you're screwed. +[3116.88 --> 3118.88] Everything's going to be a hundred, $900. +[3118.88 --> 3120.88] And yet someone like Samsung gets away with it. +[3120.88 --> 3122.88] I mean, you look at stuff like their smart TVs. +[3122.88 --> 3124.88] I've complained about this in the past. +[3124.88 --> 3125.88] None of the features work. +[3125.88 --> 3132.88] Like motion control this, you know, tracking that, you know, voice control. +[3132.88 --> 3133.88] None of it works. +[3133.88 --> 3135.88] How do we accept this? +[3135.88 --> 3139.88] How do we let them get away with delivering something that's just not polished? +[3139.88 --> 3140.88] Like at all. +[3140.88 --> 3142.88] So I don't know. +[3142.88 --> 3143.88] Plug in a Chromecast. +[3143.88 --> 3147.88] So some people I'm sure still feel that Sony is super awesome. +[3147.88 --> 3149.88] Apparently Sony doesn't think so anymore. +[3149.88 --> 3152.88] So they're selling off that business unit. +[3152.88 --> 3158.88] I think the, the rumored sort of on the table price is somewhere in the $500 million range. +[3158.88 --> 3159.88] Yep. +[3159.88 --> 3162.88] And the, the random estimation is about $493 million. +[3162.88 --> 3166.88] And, um, yeah, it's, it's kind of interesting, although not surprising. +[3166.88 --> 3172.88] We were actually fairly recently talking about that, like massive, ridiculous, over the top percentage of Sony bankrupting. +[3172.88 --> 3173.88] Oh yeah. +[3173.88 --> 3174.88] Someone said, what was it? +[3174.88 --> 3179.88] There was a, uh, there was an article that claimed there was a 78% chance. +[3179.88 --> 3180.88] We talked about this on the WAN show. +[3180.88 --> 3181.88] Yeah. +[3181.88 --> 3187.88] Of Sony going bankrupt in the next, I think it was some ludicrously short period of time, like two years or something like that. +[3187.88 --> 3188.88] Yeah. +[3188.88 --> 3197.88] And I think what we said was, well, no, they have a lot of assets that they could sell to keep them going for a really long time before they just declare bankruptcy. +[3197.88 --> 3198.88] So. +[3198.88 --> 3199.88] Yeah. +[3199.88 --> 3200.88] And we see the beginning of it. +[3200.88 --> 3207.88] And I, I expect them to liquidate certain assets and then try to empower others to try and get profit going again. +[3207.88 --> 3209.88] And that looks like exactly what they're doing. +[3209.88 --> 3215.88] If you were a buyer, would you even be remotely interested in the, in the Vile brand? +[3215.88 --> 3219.88] Because does the Vile brand mean anything without Sony attached to it? +[3219.88 --> 3221.88] Is it the Vile brand you're buying though? +[3221.88 --> 3222.88] Yeah. +[3222.88 --> 3223.88] Or are you buying infrastructure? +[3223.88 --> 3225.88] You're, well, you're buying both. +[3225.88 --> 3226.88] You're buying a distribution system. +[3226.88 --> 3228.88] You're buying the Vile brand. +[3228.88 --> 3233.88] But the rumor right now is that Vile notebooks will probably disappear outside of Japan for a while anyway. +[3233.88 --> 3236.88] So you're, you're probably going to lose whatever momentum you had. +[3236.88 --> 3238.88] But then look at this. +[3238.88 --> 3246.88] They forecasted 293 million profit and lost 1.1 billion for the year. +[3246.88 --> 3252.88] Would you buy this business unit and this brand that obviously doesn't resonate with consumers? +[3252.88 --> 3255.88] I think that was a total for their company. +[3255.88 --> 3257.88] Um, I'm not entirely sure, but. +[3257.88 --> 3258.88] Oh yeah. +[3258.88 --> 3259.88] Sorry. +[3259.88 --> 3260.88] Yeah. +[3260.88 --> 3261.88] You're right. +[3261.88 --> 3262.88] You're right. +[3262.88 --> 3263.88] You're right. +[3263.88 --> 3264.88] So not just Vile laptops, but like there, there's interesting people looking into it. +[3264.88 --> 3265.88] There's that investment group from Japan. +[3265.88 --> 3271.88] There's also Lenovo or, uh, uh, uh, what am I trying to say? +[3271.88 --> 3272.88] Is it Lenovo? +[3272.88 --> 3276.88] Lenovo is a company that owns IBM or owns ThinkPad rather. +[3276.88 --> 3277.88] Yeah, there we go. +[3277.88 --> 3281.88] So it's Lenovo that's looking into Vile, which is interesting because IBM just sold them ThinkPad. +[3281.88 --> 3282.88] Yeah. +[3282.88 --> 3284.88] So I could see, I could see them consuming it. +[3284.88 --> 3287.88] IBM just sold them their server business as well. +[3287.88 --> 3288.88] Really? +[3288.88 --> 3289.88] Yeah. +[3289.88 --> 3290.88] Is IBM just going to sell them everything? +[3290.88 --> 3291.88] I don't know. +[3291.88 --> 3292.88] I guess so. +[3292.88 --> 3296.88] Maybe Lenovo is just going to buy everything just like Amazon and Google are buying everything. +[3296.88 --> 3301.88] It's interesting how these massive companies are just going on insane shopping spree. +[3301.88 --> 3307.88] In the last few years, Lenovo came from absolutely not significant at all with funding from the +[3307.88 --> 3310.88] Chinese government to being a dominant PC manufacturer. +[3310.88 --> 3312.88] It's amazing. +[3312.88 --> 3313.88] That Chinese government backing. +[3313.88 --> 3314.88] Gotta love it. +[3314.88 --> 3315.88] It's pretty strong. +[3315.88 --> 3318.88] So there's going to be quite a few things hit by this. +[3318.88 --> 3320.88] Um, about 5,000 jobs are going to be cut. +[3320.88 --> 3324.88] That's about 1,500 in Japan and 3,500 overseas. +[3324.88 --> 3329.88] Uh, so it's not all just randomly Sony dropping part of their business. +[3329.88 --> 3334.88] It's also Sony dropping 5,000 jobs, which is not good to hear as the job market in many +[3334.88 --> 3336.88] places isn't super great right now. +[3336.88 --> 3337.88] Um, so. +[3337.88 --> 3338.88] Could be worse. +[3338.88 --> 3340.88] They could work for Linus Media Group. +[3340.88 --> 3343.88] I mean, how likely is your job to end? +[3343.88 --> 3344.88] I fire you. +[3344.88 --> 3346.88] Well, I haven't fired you in a long time, actually. +[3346.88 --> 3350.88] Speaking of acquisitions, Amazon just bought a game studio. +[3350.88 --> 3352.88] So this was posted by Top War Gamer. +[3352.88 --> 3358.88] And Top War Gamer, can you please not post mobile links when you link people to things +[3358.88 --> 3359.88] on the forum? +[3359.88 --> 3360.88] Come on, man. +[3360.88 --> 3361.88] Well. +[3361.88 --> 3362.88] Well. +[3362.88 --> 3363.88] I don't think it's that hard to fix. +[3363.88 --> 3364.88] Oh, yeah, but. +[3364.88 --> 3366.88] At least he, I would, okay. +[3366.88 --> 3369.88] I'm not going to harp on him that hard because he always fills things out. +[3369.88 --> 3370.88] That's true. +[3370.88 --> 3374.88] And I would way rather it was filled out and had a mobile link than wasn't filled out and +[3374.88 --> 3375.88] had a normal link. +[3375.88 --> 3376.88] True that. +[3376.88 --> 3378.88] Alright, so there you go. +[3378.88 --> 3379.88] Here, carry on. +[3379.88 --> 3383.88] This isn't, in my opinion, that super interesting yet. +[3383.88 --> 3386.88] Um, it's interesting because of what might happen in the future. +[3386.88 --> 3390.88] There's been a lot of rumors spinning around about Amazon maybe releasing a set-top box +[3390.88 --> 3391.88] console, which is interesting. +[3391.88 --> 3394.88] However, that might possibly work. +[3394.88 --> 3395.88] I don't know. +[3395.88 --> 3396.88] Is it a Steam box? +[3396.88 --> 3397.88] I don't know. +[3397.88 --> 3398.88] Is it a Android system? +[3398.88 --> 3399.88] Who knows? +[3399.88 --> 3402.88] Does it use their cloud to do cloud gaming? +[3402.88 --> 3403.88] Maybe. +[3403.88 --> 3404.88] I don't know. +[3404.88 --> 3407.88] There's a lot of different stuff spinning around about this, so we'll see what happens +[3407.88 --> 3408.88] there. +[3408.88 --> 3411.88] Um, it's also not the first gaming acquisition they've made. +[3411.88 --> 3416.88] They, they got casual game maker Reflexive Entertainment back in 2008, so they're adding +[3416.88 --> 3418.88] these guys to the list. +[3418.88 --> 3423.88] Double Helix is still fully intending to support Killer Instinct, which was a Xbox One game, +[3423.88 --> 3426.88] so they're going to be releasing more content, more characters into it. +[3426.88 --> 3431.88] Um, and they fully expect to release, uh, more Killer Instinct games for Xbox One in +[3431.88 --> 3432.88] the future. +[3432.88 --> 3434.88] Not that very many people watching this show care. +[3434.88 --> 3437.88] Um, and, yeah. +[3437.88 --> 3441.88] So a lot of what Double Helix is doing is not going to change, but they're going to be a +[3441.88 --> 3445.88] part of Amazon Game Studios, and there's all this other stuff going on about Amazon Game +[3445.88 --> 3446.88] Studios. +[3446.88 --> 3447.88] So this isn't interesting now. +[3447.88 --> 3453.88] Once Amazon actually does make a proper announcement about what their gaming system, set-top, box, +[3453.88 --> 3458.88] possible, maybe, possibly, thing might be, uh, this might become interesting. +[3458.88 --> 3462.88] And once they make announcements about what these gaming studios are actually doing, that +[3462.88 --> 3464.88] might also be interesting. +[3464.88 --> 3466.88] But right now it's just, they bought something. +[3466.88 --> 3467.88] And, yeah. +[3467.88 --> 3468.88] That's about it. +[3468.88 --> 3471.88] So there's not a ton we can actually say about that right now. +[3471.88 --> 3477.88] Speaking of things to buy, or not necessarily buy, our sponsor today is Hotspot Shield. +[3477.88 --> 3479.88] So you can visit bit.ly slash hsshare. +[3479.88 --> 3482.88] It's a bit.ly link, hsshare. +[3482.88 --> 3487.88] And I'm going to go ahead and post a nice little link for you guys in the Twitch chat. +[3487.88 --> 3492.88] I realize this is something I should probably do all the time, because you have more reason +[3492.88 --> 3498.88] than ever to care about Hotspot Shield at the moment, particularly if you're in a region +[3498.88 --> 3501.88] that doesn't have great coverage of the Sochi Olympics. +[3501.88 --> 3504.88] So I'm going to go ahead and throw that link in there. +[3504.88 --> 3508.88] Um, so Hotspot Shield is the fast, easy way to set up a VPN. +[3508.88 --> 3512.88] You can get a free trial of their Elite service by clicking on the link that I just put in +[3512.88 --> 3513.88] there. +[3513.88 --> 3517.88] And with offer code Linus, you can save 20% off of your first purchase of their Elite service. +[3517.88 --> 3524.88] So you can use that in this case to get access to the BBC's coverage of the Sochi Olympics +[3524.88 --> 3526.88] if your coverage in your area isn't that great. +[3526.88 --> 3529.88] I think it was you who shared a chart with me. +[3529.88 --> 3531.88] I was looking for it earlier. +[3531.88 --> 3532.88] I couldn't find it. +[3532.88 --> 3534.88] It should be on my Twitter. +[3534.88 --> 3535.88] Yeah. +[3535.88 --> 3542.88] And how absolute rubbish a lot of countries' coverage of the Olympics is this time around. +[3542.88 --> 3548.88] And so with Hotspot Shield, once you get it installed, you can actually tell it what country +[3548.88 --> 3552.88] you want to appear to other websites as being from. +[3552.88 --> 3557.88] So if for some reason you wanted to watch something that is only being broadcast in the US, whether +[3557.88 --> 3561.88] it's Netflix or whether it's an Olympic event, or you wanted to watch something that's only +[3561.88 --> 3566.88] being broadcast in the UK, you can actually switch between them and get whatever coverage +[3566.88 --> 3567.88] it is that you wanted. +[3567.88 --> 3569.88] All of that instantly. +[3569.88 --> 3571.88] So guys, I'm going to... +[3571.88 --> 3572.88] Oh yeah, here. +[3572.88 --> 3573.88] Can you send me this link? +[3573.88 --> 3574.88] Imjr. +[3574.88 --> 3575.88] I posted it in the Twitch chat. +[3575.88 --> 3576.88] I can also put it in the doc. +[3576.88 --> 3577.88] No, no, it's fine. +[3577.88 --> 3578.88] I'll go ahead and click it in the Twitch chat. +[3578.88 --> 3580.88] It might have flown away. +[3580.88 --> 3582.88] It moved fast. +[3582.88 --> 3583.88] But, but uh... +[3583.88 --> 3584.88] There we go. +[3584.88 --> 3586.88] Alright, so I'll show you guys that link. +[3586.88 --> 3587.88] Linus's screen. +[3587.88 --> 3589.88] And of course guys, remember, when you... +[3589.88 --> 3593.88] Even when you sign up for a trial of Hotspot Shield, you're helping us out in a big way, +[3593.88 --> 3595.88] because they are one of our sponsors. +[3595.88 --> 3597.88] This is super subject to change. +[3597.88 --> 3598.88] Yeah. +[3598.88 --> 3599.88] All subject to change. +[3599.88 --> 3600.88] Yeah. +[3600.88 --> 3607.88] But TV coverage, couple hundred hours, couple hundred hours, 240 hours, 539 hours. +[3607.88 --> 3612.88] Online coverage in the US, it looks like it at least was when this was released, going +[3612.88 --> 3615.88] to be cable and satellite subscribers only. +[3615.88 --> 3618.88] I've heard quite a few of these things have already actually changed. +[3618.88 --> 3619.88] Yep. +[3619.88 --> 3620.88] But this is where it started. +[3620.88 --> 3622.88] So other things will be add-on layers essentially. +[3622.88 --> 3626.88] So if for whatever reason you're not happy with your coverage, here I'm going to post +[3626.88 --> 3631.88] that link again and someone's like, why didn't you go to Sochi to cover it? +[3631.88 --> 3634.88] Well, it isn't technology. +[3634.88 --> 3636.88] There's no like overclocking Olympics there. +[3636.88 --> 3639.88] It would be in the mountains though. +[3639.88 --> 3640.88] Although... +[3640.88 --> 3644.88] Actually, we don't really cover the overclocking Olympics. +[3644.88 --> 3646.88] I don't know the overclocking Olympics either anyway. +[3646.88 --> 3647.88] No. +[3647.88 --> 3648.88] Frankly, they aren't that interesting. +[3648.88 --> 3649.88] No. +[3649.88 --> 3653.88] I'm way more because it's not representative of what you're going to be able to do at home. +[3653.88 --> 3654.88] I don't know. +[3654.88 --> 3659.88] I mean, my problem with professional overclocking really comes down to the personalities. +[3659.88 --> 3663.88] Like, remember how hard it was for you to get an interview from anyone? +[3663.88 --> 3664.88] Oh my God. +[3664.88 --> 3666.88] I felt so useless at that event. +[3666.88 --> 3671.88] I was just like, okay, they're focused on working and I have to stay in there. +[3671.88 --> 3672.88] And that's fine. +[3672.88 --> 3673.88] I respect that. +[3673.88 --> 3674.88] I get that. +[3674.88 --> 3681.88] But at the end of the day, in my mind, it is the obligation of a professional sports person +[3681.88 --> 3687.88] or a professional competitor to advocate for what they do. +[3687.88 --> 3689.88] To make people interested in it. +[3689.88 --> 3693.88] Because there was stuff there that was really interesting. +[3693.88 --> 3696.88] But no one wanted to show it to us or talk to us about it. +[3696.88 --> 3703.88] Like, when I was at Gigabytes thing at CES, one of the overclockers there had a graphics +[3703.88 --> 3711.88] card that had a full PCB and then it had the back PCB of a different graphics card or some +[3711.88 --> 3716.88] EVGA weird thing, like, soldered to it so they could plug in more PCI Express connectors +[3716.88 --> 3717.88] and get more power to it. +[3717.88 --> 3719.88] And I'm like, who's covering this? +[3719.88 --> 3720.88] That's awesome. +[3720.88 --> 3721.88] Yeah. +[3721.88 --> 3722.88] And that's really cool. +[3722.88 --> 3725.88] But then no one will talk to you about it. +[3725.88 --> 3726.88] Yeah. +[3726.88 --> 3727.88] It's interesting. +[3727.88 --> 3731.88] Also, a problem that I have with it is it's so hard to replicate at home. +[3731.88 --> 3732.88] Yeah. +[3732.88 --> 3734.88] There's a lot of insane binning that's going on. +[3734.88 --> 3738.88] Like, just throwing away tons of parts because they're not good enough. +[3738.88 --> 3740.88] People are like, trade secrets, my friends. +[3740.88 --> 3741.88] You know what? +[3741.88 --> 3742.88] I don't care. +[3742.88 --> 3745.88] Because you can have a trade secret that no one's talking about and no one's talking +[3745.88 --> 3750.88] and maybe doesn't exist five years from now. +[3750.88 --> 3754.88] If you care about having a job, you have to be open about it. +[3754.88 --> 3756.88] It's like, look at any professional sport. +[3756.88 --> 3759.88] Do they hide how to dribble a basketball? +[3759.88 --> 3765.88] Or do they want all the youth in the world dribbling, wanting to dribble a basketball just +[3765.88 --> 3766.88] like LeBron James? +[3766.88 --> 3769.88] That is how it works. +[3769.88 --> 3773.88] That is how you get people engaged and excited about what you're doing. +[3773.88 --> 3777.88] I don't hold anything back from you guys about what we do here. +[3777.88 --> 3782.88] I'm willing to explain anything we do, whether it's on the computer side or whether it's even +[3782.88 --> 3784.88] on the YouTube or social media side. +[3784.88 --> 3786.88] I love answering questions about this stuff because... +[3786.88 --> 3787.88] I've done it quite a few times. +[3787.88 --> 3792.88] The reality of it is, if you're not constantly innovating, people will catch up to you anyway. +[3792.88 --> 3798.88] So if you just sit there and jealously guard your secrets and try to prevent other people +[3798.88 --> 3802.88] from furthering what you're doing, well how are you ever going to learn from them as well +[3802.88 --> 3804.88] when they innovate and they discover? +[3804.88 --> 3805.88] It's all about sharing. +[3805.88 --> 3807.88] And that's what I think a lot of people don't understand. +[3807.88 --> 3809.88] Which is actually exactly... +[3809.88 --> 3810.88] Have we released that video yet? +[3810.88 --> 3811.88] Which one? +[3811.88 --> 3812.88] The 2014 update. +[3812.88 --> 3813.88] No. +[3813.88 --> 3817.88] Which is exactly what a future video will actually be about, is how we're planning on trying to +[3817.88 --> 3818.88] be agile. +[3818.88 --> 3820.88] Again, because we always try to plan on being agile. +[3820.88 --> 3821.88] Trying to change things. +[3821.88 --> 3822.88] It actually... +[3822.88 --> 3823.88] Okay, right. +[3823.88 --> 3825.88] I promised to give some information about the giveaway. +[3825.88 --> 3826.88] Yeah. +[3826.88 --> 3829.88] So this giveaway is going to be for the Crate computer. +[3829.88 --> 3838.88] So that's a 4670K, GTX 780, 500 gig SSD PC that's built onto the back of a 27 inch +[3838.88 --> 3839.88] gaming LCD. +[3839.88 --> 3840.88] Worldwide giveaway. +[3840.88 --> 3841.88] Okay. +[3841.88 --> 3844.88] We're also giving away an ASUS GTX Titan. +[3844.88 --> 3845.88] Boom. +[3845.88 --> 3848.88] And we're also giving away a Sony VAIO DUO 13 Ultrabook. +[3848.88 --> 3849.88] Boom. +[3849.88 --> 3851.88] Three things all at the same time. +[3851.88 --> 3853.88] And all you're going to have to do... +[3853.88 --> 3857.88] There's going to be a video coming up on Techquickie that you're going to have to comment on. +[3857.88 --> 3862.88] And then the Titan and the VAIO Ultrabook are going to be a little bit different. +[3862.88 --> 3867.88] So the main prize is the Crate computer and anyone can enter that one. +[3867.88 --> 3874.88] But to enter into the other draws, you must either be a social media influencer with 10,000 +[3874.88 --> 3879.88] followers on some platform or another and share the video. +[3879.88 --> 3887.88] Or you must get a social media influencer to share it and credit you for sharing it with them in the first place. +[3887.88 --> 3890.88] And then you will be entered for a chance to win the Titan. +[3890.88 --> 3904.88] So I am enlisting you guys to help spread the word about the Crate computer giveaway by incentivizing you with a chance to be in a much smaller pool of people who could win a GTX Titan. +[3904.88 --> 3905.88] Imagine someone wins both. +[3905.88 --> 3906.88] I'm sorry? +[3906.88 --> 3908.88] Imagine the dude that wins the Crate also wins the Titan. +[3908.88 --> 3909.88] Is that possible? +[3909.88 --> 3910.88] Are we allowing that to be possible? +[3910.88 --> 3911.88] I don't think we can allow that. +[3911.88 --> 3912.88] Just re-roll? +[3912.88 --> 3913.88] Yeah, we'd have to re-roll. +[3913.88 --> 3915.88] We'd have to draw the Crate computer first. +[3915.88 --> 3916.88] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3916.88 --> 3919.88] And then the VAIO Ultrabook is for the influencers. +[3919.88 --> 3920.88] Yeah. +[3920.88 --> 3926.88] So anyone who shares it who is an influencer is in the bucket to win the VAIO, which I don't think there will be that many. +[3926.88 --> 3928.88] Maybe 10 or 20 influencers tops. +[3928.88 --> 3930.88] That's great odds on a $1,000 notebook. +[3930.88 --> 3933.88] And then the Titan for the people who get influencers to share. +[3933.88 --> 3935.88] And then the Crate computer, which anyone can join. +[3935.88 --> 3936.88] Yeah. +[3936.88 --> 3938.88] So it's going to be crazy. +[3938.88 --> 3943.88] Someone's like, of course you have to have a stupid garbage book or quitter account. +[3943.88 --> 3945.88] What the hell are you talking about? +[3945.88 --> 3950.88] I said you have to leave a comment on the TechWiki video for a chance to win the Crate computer. +[3950.88 --> 3951.88] I did that actually. +[3951.88 --> 3952.88] Nope, nope, nope. +[3952.88 --> 3954.88] Yeah, good try though. +[3954.88 --> 3956.88] Someone's like, sell out. +[3956.88 --> 3957.88] Sell out to who? +[3957.88 --> 3960.88] I don't understand what just happened. +[3960.88 --> 3962.88] But let's ignore the Twitch chat right now. +[3962.88 --> 3963.88] Wow. +[3963.88 --> 3966.88] Most people have said good things about it. +[3966.88 --> 3969.88] I love you guys mostly, but some of you don't get it. +[3969.88 --> 3971.88] Alright, so let's move on to our next topic. +[3971.88 --> 3973.88] Here we go. +[3973.88 --> 3974.88] Ah, yes. +[3974.88 --> 3976.88] California. +[3976.88 --> 3984.88] There's a California bill that's proposing a mandatory kill switch for phones and tablets in 2015. +[3984.88 --> 3985.88] That's really cool. +[3985.88 --> 3987.88] That's actually really cool. +[3987.88 --> 3989.88] I'm more than down. +[3989.88 --> 3991.88] There's some requirements that it has to make. +[3991.88 --> 3993.88] They're not making you use like a specific one. +[3993.88 --> 3997.88] They're not like, oh yeah, LoJack has to come pre-installed on every single mobile device. +[3997.88 --> 3998.88] No, they're not doing that. +[3998.88 --> 4000.88] But it has to meet certain requirements. +[4000.88 --> 4003.88] So those requirements are, if I can find it really quickly. +[4003.88 --> 4006.88] Of course I can't find it really quickly. +[4006.88 --> 4012.88] Once activated it should be able to prevent phone calls, internet access, and the ability to run apps. +[4012.88 --> 4017.88] You can also, it also has to be able to restrain people from doing a hard reset. +[4017.88 --> 4021.88] It has to be able to restrain them from returning the device to factory condition, +[4021.88 --> 4023.88] or downgrading to a different operating system. +[4023.88 --> 4026.88] So basically, it has to be able to be on there all the time. +[4026.88 --> 4027.88] Yeah. +[4027.88 --> 4028.88] Because you shouldn't be able to remove it. +[4028.88 --> 4033.88] And it should be able to restrict you from phone calls, internet access, or running apps. +[4033.88 --> 4038.88] So it essentially renders your entire phone useless, and you can't remove it. +[4038.88 --> 4044.88] So this comes, this stems from an increase in muggings that are targeting mobile devices. +[4044.88 --> 4049.88] I mean, what is something that you could basically assume someone will have on them, +[4049.88 --> 4056.88] that they can give you in less than 10 seconds, that is reasonably valuable and easy to flip? +[4056.88 --> 4057.88] Super easy to flip. +[4057.88 --> 4058.88] Super easy to flip. +[4058.88 --> 4060.88] It's not going to be jewelry necessarily. +[4060.88 --> 4065.88] Actually, I was reading a really interesting article on the resale value of diamond jewelry, +[4065.88 --> 4067.88] and it's like nothing. +[4067.88 --> 4074.88] It's like pennies on the dollar basically, because the assumption is that it's probably stolen, +[4074.88 --> 4080.88] plus there's the fact that diamond retailers are buying at wholesale that is so much lower +[4080.88 --> 4084.88] than the retail prices that people bring in diamond jewelry for trade-ins, +[4084.88 --> 4089.88] and they usually just end up keeping it anyway, because it's just not actually worth anything. +[4089.88 --> 4092.88] And so jewelry is not necessarily the answer. +[4092.88 --> 4097.88] So you just walk up, like, give me your phone, because people's wallets won't necessarily have anything of value in them. +[4097.88 --> 4098.88] Because everyone's card now. +[4098.88 --> 4099.88] Yeah, it's going to be plastic. +[4099.88 --> 4101.88] It's like, yeah, here, go ahead, take my wallet. +[4101.88 --> 4104.88] Just let me take my driver's license, and like, you know... +[4104.88 --> 4105.88] And the leather. +[4105.88 --> 4106.88] And the... +[4106.88 --> 4107.88] You can have everything in it. +[4107.88 --> 4110.88] Yeah, you can have everything in it, because I'm going to go ahead, I'm going to place a phone call right now, +[4110.88 --> 4115.88] with, like, someone else's phone, because you probably just stole my phone, which is the only valuable thing, +[4115.88 --> 4117.88] and I'm going to cancel all those cards. +[4117.88 --> 4118.88] Yeah. +[4118.88 --> 4119.88] I don't know. +[4119.88 --> 4120.88] So... +[4120.88 --> 4122.88] They're going to be pushed pretty hard. +[4122.88 --> 4128.88] Retailers are going to be fined around $500 to $2,500 per device that's sold that doesn't have this type of technology. +[4128.88 --> 4132.88] Yeah, so it's not set in stone or anything, but the fine could range anywhere in there. +[4132.88 --> 4135.88] And it's important to note that per device word. +[4135.88 --> 4142.88] So a retailer that sells 10,000 phones that aren't equipped with this technology in California +[4142.88 --> 4145.88] could be looking at whatever the math is for that. +[4145.88 --> 4146.88] 10,000, 500. +[4146.88 --> 4150.88] Five, you know, millions of dollars in fines, potentially. +[4150.88 --> 4151.88] So... +[4151.88 --> 4153.88] Kind of a really big deal. +[4153.88 --> 4154.88] I think it's awesome. +[4154.88 --> 4157.88] One thing that they are expressing worry about is that no one's really going to want to make a phone +[4157.88 --> 4159.88] just for California. +[4159.88 --> 4164.88] But they were saying that if that does even look like it starts to happen, +[4164.88 --> 4168.88] they're going to push really hard for basically everyone else in the states to back this as well. +[4168.88 --> 4169.88] Right. +[4169.88 --> 4172.88] It looks extremely possible that that is going to happen, +[4172.88 --> 4175.88] regardless of whether or not people are worried about making phones for California. +[4175.88 --> 4180.88] There are other states that are very interested in proposing a bill that is essentially the exact same thing. +[4180.88 --> 4182.88] And I'm totally down for that. +[4182.88 --> 4184.88] Totally, completely down for that. +[4184.88 --> 4187.88] Because phones getting stolen is a huge deal. +[4187.88 --> 4188.88] Yeah. +[4188.88 --> 4191.88] That's about all I have to say. +[4191.88 --> 4192.88] I'm happy. +[4192.88 --> 4193.88] Completely honest. +[4193.88 --> 4194.88] Me too. +[4194.88 --> 4195.88] Alright. +[4195.88 --> 4196.88] Something less happy. +[4196.88 --> 4198.88] Next up, this is the rumor mill. +[4198.88 --> 4199.88] That's my on-screen keyboard. +[4199.88 --> 4201.88] Posted by... +[4201.88 --> 4202.88] Hi, Carrie. +[4202.88 --> 4204.88] I should know how to say this by now. +[4204.88 --> 4206.88] You post a fair bit of news. +[4206.88 --> 4208.88] So, the rumor mill says, +[4208.88 --> 4214.88] GM107 is a new core that could be coming from AMD at some point here. +[4214.88 --> 4216.88] This is from videocards.com. +[4216.88 --> 4217.88] What's up? +[4217.88 --> 4218.88] You said AMD. +[4218.88 --> 4219.88] Did I say AMD? +[4219.88 --> 4220.88] Yep. +[4220.88 --> 4221.88] Oh, sorry. +[4221.88 --> 4222.88] Nvidia. +[4222.88 --> 4223.88] The Nvidia logo is clearly visible there. +[4223.88 --> 4226.88] So, don't mind the man behind the curtain. +[4226.88 --> 4227.88] Woo! +[4227.88 --> 4232.88] So, there's an even bigger Nvidia logo there. +[4232.88 --> 4233.88] Thank you for that. +[4233.88 --> 4235.88] Okay, you've got the summary in the doc. +[4235.88 --> 4240.88] So, essentially, it's a hybrid between GK107 and GK106. +[4240.88 --> 4244.88] For all you guys that were super excited for a big massive card, maybe not so much. +[4244.88 --> 4245.88] The slower variant... +[4245.88 --> 4247.88] Oh, I don't think we ever said this. +[4247.88 --> 4250.88] Yeah, so, rumor on the street, word on the street is that this is Maxwell. +[4250.88 --> 4253.88] Yeah, Maxwell, but 700 series Maxwell. +[4253.88 --> 4254.88] 700 series Maxwell. +[4254.88 --> 4259.88] So, not GTX 800 series, not a 20 nanometer chip. +[4259.88 --> 4262.88] So, this is still at a 28 nanometer manufacturing process. +[4262.88 --> 4266.88] And then, like you were saying, somewhere between GK107 and GK106. +[4266.88 --> 4267.88] Okay, go ahead. +[4267.88 --> 4270.88] So, the focus of it is extremely low power. +[4270.88 --> 4276.88] So, the slower variant, the GM107-300 will be used for a GTX 750. +[4276.88 --> 4277.88] Rumored, allegedly. +[4277.88 --> 4278.88] Rumored. +[4278.88 --> 4284.88] And then, the GM107-400 will, rumored, allegedly be used for a GTX 750 Ti. +[4284.88 --> 4285.88] Rumored, allegedly. +[4285.88 --> 4288.88] We have a chart down here that shows speeds. +[4288.88 --> 4291.88] And the speeds are not... +[4291.88 --> 4293.88] Oh my God, fast. +[4293.88 --> 4296.88] But, the power usage is, oh my God, low. +[4296.88 --> 4301.88] Some of these are actually going to be able to even be used without any extra power. +[4301.88 --> 4303.88] Or, just a single 6-pin. +[4303.88 --> 4304.88] Which is... +[4304.88 --> 4306.88] Interesting and boring. +[4306.88 --> 4307.88] Well, come on. +[4307.88 --> 4309.88] You can't call power savings boring. +[4309.88 --> 4310.88] You know what? +[4310.88 --> 4313.88] I actually had a really interesting conversation with a guy from Intel. +[4313.88 --> 4314.88] Um, when... +[4314.88 --> 4316.88] And it was just like, everything is off the record. +[4316.88 --> 4319.88] It wasn't like, official Intel, you know, jargon or anything like that. +[4319.88 --> 4320.88] But I was... +[4320.88 --> 4325.88] He was like, you know, what's your take on what we've been doing for the last few years? +[4325.88 --> 4327.88] And I'm like, it's boring. +[4327.88 --> 4329.88] It was the typical enthusiast response. +[4329.88 --> 4334.88] You guys haven't done anything that's lit my world on fire in terms of driving up performance. +[4334.88 --> 4335.88] And he's like, you know, what? +[4335.88 --> 4337.88] You know, power savings aren't boring? +[4337.88 --> 4338.88] Aren't interesting? +[4338.88 --> 4339.88] And I'm like, well no. +[4339.88 --> 4341.88] And he's like, well, you know, what about this? +[4341.88 --> 4348.88] What if that dye area that we saved on making the CPU more powerful is what enables your +[4348.88 --> 4353.88] notebook to go from sleep to wake in like, you know, a second? +[4353.88 --> 4354.88] But they're not talking about that. +[4354.88 --> 4355.88] Who? +[4355.88 --> 4356.88] Intel. +[4356.88 --> 4357.88] Intel? +[4357.88 --> 4358.88] I know. +[4358.88 --> 4369.88] But he's like, but you have to consider, like, have we not introduced exciting technologies? +[4369.88 --> 4372.88] And I'm like, okay, yes. +[4372.88 --> 4374.88] You've introduced exciting technologies. +[4374.88 --> 4377.88] It's just that the performance hasn't excited me. +[4377.88 --> 4381.88] And I kind of go, and I'm kind of sitting there going, but I see your perspective. +[4381.88 --> 4386.88] Because just because saving some power doesn't excite me personally, the enthusiast, doesn't +[4386.88 --> 4387.88] mean that it isn't having an impact. +[4387.88 --> 4393.88] I mean, if we can take this card and have it be fairly close to this in terms of performance, +[4393.88 --> 4396.88] so it's probably going to have jacked up memory frequency, because that's what NVIDIA's been +[4396.88 --> 4397.88] doing lately. +[4397.88 --> 4399.88] So even though it's only got a 128-bit bus. +[4399.88 --> 4400.88] No, no, no, no, it's hard to see. +[4400.88 --> 4401.88] Sorry. +[4401.88 --> 4402.88] I can't highlight. +[4402.88 --> 4403.88] It's a picture. +[4403.88 --> 4404.88] Way to go. +[4404.88 --> 4409.88] So even though it's only got a 128-bit bus compared to a 192-bit bus, the overall specs +[4409.88 --> 4410.88] are similar. +[4410.88 --> 4416.88] And if it has faster memory, we could be looking at very similar performance, but at just over half +[4416.88 --> 4417.88] half of the power consumption. +[4417.88 --> 4420.88] And then something else to think about is the global impact of this. +[4420.88 --> 4427.88] I mean, if a hundred thousand people, hypothetical number, are using this card versus that card, +[4427.88 --> 4433.88] we are saving all of that power and all of those resources for the world when we're gaming. +[4433.88 --> 4434.88] And that is awesome. +[4434.88 --> 4435.88] It just does. +[4435.88 --> 4436.88] It's not exciting. +[4436.88 --> 4437.88] And it's not exciting. +[4437.88 --> 4445.88] Like, it's cool, but it just, and like with the technologies that Intel's coming out with, +[4445.88 --> 4446.88] like, that's cool, man. +[4446.88 --> 4447.88] But... +[4447.88 --> 4450.88] Well, it's more of an expectation management thing, I think. +[4450.88 --> 4451.88] Yeah. +[4451.88 --> 4456.88] Like, you expect there to be a significant difference between 3000 series, or between +[4456.88 --> 4460.88] 2000 series and 4000 series Intel processors. +[4460.88 --> 4463.88] And when overclocked, it's just like, meh. +[4463.88 --> 4464.88] Meh. +[4464.88 --> 4466.88] So, I don't know. +[4466.88 --> 4470.88] Yeah, the Twitch chat seems to be with us that power savings are boring. +[4470.88 --> 4471.88] They're just, and like... +[4471.88 --> 4472.88] They're cool. +[4472.88 --> 4475.88] The Twitch chat also figured I was selling out because I was doing a giveaway. +[4475.88 --> 4476.88] I don't get that. +[4476.88 --> 4478.88] I think people don't know what sell out means. +[4478.88 --> 4479.88] And like, are you selling out to yourself? +[4479.88 --> 4481.88] Because you're driving TechQuickie, which is us. +[4481.88 --> 4482.88] Yeah. +[4482.88 --> 4484.88] So, you're selling to yourself. +[4484.88 --> 4485.88] So, it's like a loop transaction. +[4485.88 --> 4487.88] And I'm using my own stuff. +[4487.88 --> 4488.88] Yeah. +[4488.88 --> 4489.88] Like, all the stuff... +[4489.88 --> 4491.88] So, you are losing things... +[4491.88 --> 4493.88] To buy things for myself. +[4493.88 --> 4494.88] For yourself. +[4494.88 --> 4496.88] Is that selling out? +[4496.88 --> 4497.88] I'm curious. +[4497.88 --> 4500.88] I'm not gonna ask the Twitch chat, though. +[4502.88 --> 4504.88] Except we're both staring at the Twitch chat. +[4504.88 --> 4505.88] Except we're both staring at the Twitch chat. +[4505.88 --> 4506.88] Yes, yes, we are. +[4506.88 --> 4508.88] Okay, we're not gonna look at the Twitch chat anymore. +[4508.88 --> 4509.88] Sorry, Twitch chat. +[4509.88 --> 4512.88] Alright, Titanfall minimum specs are out. +[4512.88 --> 4516.88] And this is both surprising and not surprising at all. +[4516.88 --> 4520.88] I mean, it is based on the Source Engine, which can basically run on this. +[4520.88 --> 4524.88] Which I think was the point of the picture that NiceHat decided to post. +[4524.88 --> 4525.88] Which is awesome. +[4525.88 --> 4526.88] Which is awesome. +[4526.88 --> 4531.88] But, I guess just, you know, next generation game. +[4531.88 --> 4535.88] You know, super exciting AAA title that people are stoked about. +[4535.88 --> 4539.88] I was expecting it to not run on an Athlon X2 2.8 GHz. +[4539.88 --> 4541.88] My favorite part is the requirement for Windows 7. +[4541.88 --> 4544.88] And then the 512 megabyte RAM requirement. +[4544.88 --> 4546.88] And then Windows 7 having a... +[4546.88 --> 4547.88] It's not... +[4547.88 --> 4548.88] You can go lower than that. +[4548.88 --> 4552.88] But Windows 7 is like, yeah, you should probably go about 1 gig or 2 gigs. +[4552.88 --> 4557.88] And if you're having a 64-bit operating system, which this game also requires, you should probably go about 2 gigs. +[4557.88 --> 4559.88] And then the game is like, eh, 512 megabytes. +[4559.88 --> 4560.88] It's all good. +[4560.88 --> 4561.88] Yeah. +[4561.88 --> 4563.88] I don't know if I'd really want to play it with these specs. +[4563.88 --> 4564.88] I don't think so. +[4564.88 --> 4565.88] I don't think so. +[4565.88 --> 4566.88] I think like... +[4566.88 --> 4567.88] I don't think so. +[4567.88 --> 4570.88] I think it's going to install and you'll load it and then... +[4570.88 --> 4572.88] You'll probably want an upgrade. +[4572.88 --> 4578.88] But, I mean, for particularly laptop gamers, I mean, I don't know how many LANs you've gone to, but a lot of the... +[4578.88 --> 4580.88] Yeah, I know you've gone to a lot of LANs. +[4580.88 --> 4581.88] I was like, what? +[4581.88 --> 4582.88] It's just usually how I preface things. +[4582.88 --> 4583.88] I know. +[4583.88 --> 4590.88] But the ones that I've been to, there's a lot of people gaming on older notebooks because that's the kind of machine they needed. +[4590.88 --> 4593.88] They're not going to buy a notebook and a desktop. +[4593.88 --> 4607.88] And gaming notebooks, out of all the types of gaming devices, even tablets that are optimized for gaming, I feel like degrade in relative performance to everything else slower than gaming notebooks. +[4607.88 --> 4619.88] If you buy on a bad generation of gaming notebook, you could have the next gen of gaming notebooks be a quantum leap forward in performance because it actually gets a core change in addition to a branding change. +[4619.88 --> 4622.88] And then it could stagnate for two or three years. +[4622.88 --> 4629.88] So you either are kind of up there or like you're not at all and the industry just moves forward without you. +[4629.88 --> 4636.88] So I think this is great for people who have a several year old gaming notebook and actually want to be able to play Titanfall because it looks pretty exciting. +[4636.88 --> 4637.88] Yeah, actually. +[4637.88 --> 4640.88] I'm actually pretty stoked for it. +[4640.88 --> 4642.88] But then I'm kind of scared as well. +[4642.88 --> 4643.88] But I don't know. +[4643.88 --> 4644.88] We'll see how it goes. +[4644.88 --> 4654.88] In other news of things that I'm excited for and scared, but I think the scared level, like the excited level this time last year was the exact same as the scared level is this time. +[4654.88 --> 4656.88] Like around now is the ESO beta. +[4656.88 --> 4657.88] No, hold on a second. +[4657.88 --> 4659.88] They do say that, no, you, oh, right. +[4659.88 --> 4660.88] Never mind. +[4660.88 --> 4661.88] That's 107. +[4661.88 --> 4662.88] ESO beta. +[4662.88 --> 4663.88] Where is that? +[4663.88 --> 4665.88] It's not in here, but ESO beta is this weekend. +[4665.88 --> 4667.88] I don't think that part's under NDA. +[4667.88 --> 4669.88] And if it is, the entire internet knows. +[4669.88 --> 4670.88] So shut up. +[4670.88 --> 4675.88] But like the NDA behind ESO beta is ridiculous. +[4675.88 --> 4680.88] They're doing like a server load balancing level beta and it's still under NDA. +[4680.88 --> 4683.88] Like everyone and their mom got a beta key. +[4683.88 --> 4684.88] Right. +[4684.88 --> 4685.88] Nope. +[4685.88 --> 4686.88] Nope. +[4686.88 --> 4687.88] Don't talk about it. +[4687.88 --> 4688.88] Don't stream it. +[4688.88 --> 4689.88] Blah, blah, blah. +[4689.88 --> 4691.88] Because it's ugly as hell, which is part of the problem and a whole bunch of other problems. +[4691.88 --> 4692.88] But yeah. +[4692.88 --> 4693.88] Anyways, I'm going to stop talking about things that are scaring me. +[4693.88 --> 4694.88] Okay. +[4694.88 --> 4695.88] What else we got? +[4695.88 --> 4696.88] The different sites supporting Bitcoin payments. +[4696.88 --> 4697.88] Oh yeah. +[4697.88 --> 4699.88] So you can buy, uh, here. +[4699.88 --> 4708.88] You can buy things off TigerDirect and scan.co.uk by using BitPay, which is using Bitcoins. +[4708.88 --> 4712.88] BitPay is a little bit, uh, I don't know. +[4712.88 --> 4716.88] I was trying to figure out like how BitPay works. +[4716.88 --> 4721.88] So I went on their website and went to the like how it works area. +[4721.88 --> 4727.88] And the YouTube video that they have specifically made for that has shown up as set to private. +[4727.88 --> 4730.88] So I was like, that's weird. +[4730.88 --> 4733.88] So I went to YouTube and was like BitPay. +[4733.88 --> 4734.88] And I find their channel. +[4734.88 --> 4735.88] I'm like, okay, cool. +[4735.88 --> 4738.88] Maybe they have a new updated one and they just forgot to update the website. +[4738.88 --> 4739.88] Click on the channel. +[4739.88 --> 4742.88] This channel was like removed or deleted or something. +[4742.88 --> 4745.88] I'm just like, oh, okay. +[4745.88 --> 4750.88] So in theory, the way BitPay works is that exchange rates are calculated every minute +[4750.88 --> 4757.88] and can be grabbed through an API and shown on a website like TigerDirect.com or scan.co.uk. +[4757.88 --> 4761.88] Which is kind of awesome because one of the things that was happening in the past, uh, +[4761.88 --> 4765.88] was very early adopters of BitPay, uh, Bitcoin payments. +[4765.88 --> 4771.88] What they were doing was just taking like the high point and then going a little bit higher. +[4771.88 --> 4777.88] And then being like, uh, I mean, sorry, the low point and going a little bit lower and being, oh, sorry. +[4777.88 --> 4778.88] Yeah. +[4778.88 --> 4782.88] The high point going a little bit higher than being like, that's how much it actually costs. +[4782.88 --> 4785.88] So that you'd get crazy charge whenever you try to buy anything with Bitcoin. +[4785.88 --> 4790.88] So it was actually a lot more worth it to just go exchange, exchange your Bitcoins in to dollars +[4790.88 --> 4791.88] and then buy the thing with dollars. +[4791.88 --> 4794.88] But this makes it more realistic to buy things with Bitcoins. +[4794.88 --> 4799.88] Um, it's honestly actually pretty easy and cheap for someone to set up. +[4799.88 --> 4805.88] It's about 30 bucks a month to run as long as you're doing under about 30,000, 20, $29,000 a month. +[4805.88 --> 4810.88] Um, but then I worry about a few things on it. +[4810.88 --> 4812.88] Like it doesn't seem, I don't know. +[4812.88 --> 4814.88] It doesn't seem like the most secure thing ever. +[4814.88 --> 4816.88] And the website's a little bit sketchy. +[4816.88 --> 4818.88] Um, but it's probably entirely fine. +[4818.88 --> 4821.88] I just worry about a lot of things like that a little bit more than I probably should. +[4821.88 --> 4823.88] Here's a bunch of folks that are using it. +[4823.88 --> 4824.88] Yep. +[4824.88 --> 4830.88] So it's not like they're really small and nobody's using it at all. +[4830.88 --> 4833.88] No, that's very true. +[4833.88 --> 4835.88] But then when you look into a lot of these websites, they're... +[4835.88 --> 4838.88] There are ones I recognize, Namecheap. +[4838.88 --> 4839.88] Yep. +[4840.88 --> 4843.88] A lot of them are just straight up Bitcoin websites though. +[4843.88 --> 4844.88] Yeah, a lot of them are. +[4844.88 --> 4846.88] Like an extremely large portion. +[4846.88 --> 4847.88] Yep. +[4847.88 --> 4849.88] Okay. +[4851.88 --> 4853.88] Wow, there's a lot of stuff on this page. +[4853.88 --> 4855.88] I'm not going to scroll through the whole thing. +[4855.88 --> 4856.88] It's really, really long. +[4856.88 --> 4859.88] Uh, that's actually why I brought that out too, is I have sketchy feelings because of like the +[4859.88 --> 4862.88] YouTube page disappearing and all that other kind of stuff. +[4862.88 --> 4863.88] But then there's also this. +[4863.88 --> 4864.88] Right. +[4864.88 --> 4866.88] Which is actually really cool. +[4866.88 --> 4869.88] They're like, look at all the things we're working on right now. +[4869.88 --> 4870.88] Right. +[4870.88 --> 4871.88] So you... +[4871.88 --> 4872.88] It might work. +[4872.88 --> 4873.88] It might be entirely fine. +[4873.88 --> 4874.88] Um, I don't know. +[4874.88 --> 4876.88] I don't know how big the team is. +[4876.88 --> 4879.88] Maybe it's a small team thing, so they just haven't noticed the YouTube thing yet. +[4879.88 --> 4880.88] Right. +[4880.88 --> 4881.88] Uh, maybe it's something else. +[4881.88 --> 4882.88] It's probably entirely fine. +[4882.88 --> 4883.88] Massdrop uses them. +[4883.88 --> 4884.88] That's kind of cool. +[4884.88 --> 4885.88] That is actually kind of cool. +[4885.88 --> 4886.88] Lots of good stuff on Massdrop. +[4886.88 --> 4887.88] Yep. +[4887.88 --> 4888.88] Yep. +[4888.88 --> 4889.88] All right. +[4889.88 --> 4893.88] Well, I think we're about five minutes from the end of the show, so let's go ahead and +[4893.88 --> 4894.88] see if there's, uh... +[4894.88 --> 4895.88] We have quite a few things left, actually. +[4895.88 --> 4896.88] Do we? +[4896.88 --> 4897.88] Yep. +[4897.88 --> 4900.88] Call of Duty is now on a three year dev cycle, so this is interesting. +[4900.88 --> 4905.88] Uh, they, they added a, a developer, it's called Sledgehammer, which I believe worked +[4905.88 --> 4909.88] on a previous game in conjunction with another one of the teams, and apparently this was a +[4909.88 --> 4914.88] knee-jerk reaction to, uh, the crazy low ratings that Call of Duty Ghost got. +[4914.88 --> 4916.88] Apparently it sold fairly well. +[4916.88 --> 4920.88] Um, the sales are going down a little bit more rapidly than they had hoped, but the initial +[4920.88 --> 4926.88] sales were actually pretty alright, but I think that has in no small part due, uh, due to the new consoles. +[4926.88 --> 4929.88] Um, because people just wanted games for them. +[4929.88 --> 4935.88] Um, but yeah, they're saying this should help their teams be able to polish and ensure really +[4935.88 --> 4939.88] high quality games every single time they have a release, because now they have a three +[4939.88 --> 4941.88] year cycle instead of a two year cycle. +[4941.88 --> 4946.88] So instead of releasing a game and then trying to support it for another year while kind +[4946.88 --> 4951.88] of working on a new game and then crazy working on a new game for one year, you kind of have +[4951.88 --> 4955.88] supporting your game for a year and then crazy working on a game for two years, which is +[4955.88 --> 4957.88] actually a lot more time. +[4957.88 --> 4960.88] Yeah, that's, that, this makes such a big difference, because I mean, you look at even +[4960.88 --> 4964.88] something like Battlefield 4, like how much patching is going into that game. +[4964.88 --> 4969.88] Realistically, how much work is getting done on Battlefield 5? +[4969.88 --> 4970.88] Okay. +[4970.88 --> 4971.88] No. +[4971.88 --> 4972.88] Yeah. +[4972.88 --> 4978.88] Like you have to support the game, at least in theory, uh, for a fair amount of time +[4978.88 --> 4982.88] after you've released it, which really eats into that time for the next game. +[4982.88 --> 4984.88] Whereas this, I mean, this is great. +[4984.88 --> 4989.88] So by adding a full another development studio, as long as they, as long as they do a good job +[4989.88 --> 4994.88] of it, um, they've, they're able, I believe this is the same number of teams that NVIDIA +[4994.88 --> 4995.88] uses. +[4995.88 --> 4996.88] Okay. +[4996.88 --> 5001.88] For new GPUs, I believe, don't quote me on this, but I believe NVIDIA has three teams. +[5001.88 --> 5006.88] So each new graphics core, uh, each new graphics architecture has a different team that worked +[5006.88 --> 5007.88] on it every three cycles. +[5007.88 --> 5008.88] Right. +[5008.88 --> 5010.88] That's how long it takes to develop a GPU. +[5010.88 --> 5016.88] If NVIDIA only had one team, they would have fallen behind AMD years and years and years +[5016.88 --> 5017.88] ago. +[5017.88 --> 5018.88] And so that makes sense. +[5018.88 --> 5021.88] This is a business model that exists outside of games. +[5021.88 --> 5026.88] And, uh, I mean, if they're gonna jam a new call of duty down our throats every year, it +[5026.88 --> 5029.88] might as well be one that was worked on for a reasonable period of time. +[5029.88 --> 5032.88] Honestly, I don't even mind the one year cycle. +[5032.88 --> 5034.88] I've talked to different people about this before. +[5034.88 --> 5036.88] I just, it has to be good. +[5036.88 --> 5037.88] It has to be really good. +[5037.88 --> 5043.88] And I haven't been, I was in like a love affair with call of duty for the first modern warfare +[5043.88 --> 5045.88] and a lot of the call of duties before that. +[5045.88 --> 5048.88] And then it's kind of just gone down pretty hardcore lately. +[5048.88 --> 5051.88] And I have not been interested if they can fix it with this three year dev cycle. +[5051.88 --> 5053.88] I more than happily go back to call of duty. +[5053.88 --> 5055.88] I just hate it right now. +[5055.88 --> 5056.88] Right. +[5056.88 --> 5057.88] Not into it at all. +[5057.88 --> 5058.88] And I mean, you know what? +[5058.88 --> 5062.88] That's a good point because I have no problem with a month long release cycle. +[5062.88 --> 5064.88] The more content you throw at me, the better. +[5064.88 --> 5068.88] You look at something like episodic gaming, like what a walking dead's doing, like what wolf +[5068.88 --> 5069.88] among us is doing. +[5069.88 --> 5070.88] So that's telltale. +[5070.88 --> 5071.88] I got no problem with that. +[5071.88 --> 5075.88] Give me short content that's inexpensive and throw it at me really often. +[5075.88 --> 5076.88] People don't have an issue with that. +[5076.88 --> 5079.88] It's just when you deliver something that doesn't meet their expectations. +[5079.88 --> 5083.88] Speaking of which, I had completely forgotten about Wolf Among Us. +[5083.88 --> 5086.88] And Ed reminded me today that the second episode is out. +[5086.88 --> 5087.88] So I am playing that tonight. +[5087.88 --> 5089.88] I am definitely playing that tonight. +[5089.88 --> 5090.88] So stoked. +[5090.88 --> 5092.88] And there's Steam Music. +[5092.88 --> 5093.88] Yeah, Steam Music. +[5093.88 --> 5096.88] I am less excited about this than I am about in-home streaming. +[5096.88 --> 5100.88] Yeah, this isn't the most crazy thing, but it has, it's going to work with in-home. +[5100.88 --> 5101.88] It's going to work with in-home streaming. +[5101.88 --> 5102.88] Yep. +[5102.88 --> 5103.88] So this was posted by Neuro Knight. +[5103.88 --> 5104.88] Which is actually really cool. +[5104.88 --> 5109.88] So this still ties in with the idea of having a semi-low powered device with almost no storage +[5109.88 --> 5112.88] on one end and then having your beast machine on the other end. +[5112.88 --> 5115.88] Because you can store all your music somewhere else in the house and then stream from it. +[5115.88 --> 5120.88] There is basically nothing in terms of features right now other than a play button. +[5120.88 --> 5123.88] That's almost a direct quote from one of their developers. +[5123.88 --> 5127.88] But they're taking suggestions and they're planning on putting in a ton of new features. +[5127.88 --> 5134.88] If you want to sign up to be a part of the Steam Music beta, it's the exact same way that you signed up for Steam in-home streaming. +[5134.88 --> 5139.88] You've got to go to the Steam Music community page and join the community and then you will be in. +[5139.88 --> 5142.88] Right now it's only working with MP3s, but that's not going to last for too long. +[5142.88 --> 5146.88] They are already working on bringing in a bunch more support for different formats. +[5146.88 --> 5149.88] Like I said, it works with in-home streaming. +[5149.88 --> 5153.88] And the idea is that there will now be an in-game player for your music. +[5153.88 --> 5155.88] So you can change things without tabbing. +[5155.88 --> 5158.88] It's just going to be a lot more easily integrated. +[5158.88 --> 5161.88] It's not a music store, at least as of yet. +[5161.88 --> 5163.88] You can get game soundtracks through Steam. +[5163.88 --> 5165.88] That has existed for a very long time. +[5165.88 --> 5169.88] But it's not a music store in itself. +[5169.88 --> 5174.88] The idea is you point it towards the directory on your computer, it finds all the music, and then you can play it. +[5174.88 --> 5176.88] That's pretty much it. +[5176.88 --> 5180.88] And you can play it by using the Steam overlay and it's super easy and super integrated. +[5180.88 --> 5186.88] It's not the most exciting thing ever, but it's cool and I think it's a good move. +[5186.88 --> 5189.88] I think it makes a lot of sense. +[5189.88 --> 5192.88] Linus is looking up goat simulator. +[5192.88 --> 5194.88] Well yeah, we have to talk about this. +[5194.88 --> 5197.88] I had totally forgotten until someone mentioned it in the Twitch chat. +[5197.88 --> 5199.88] I posted this on Facebook earlier this week. +[5199.88 --> 5207.88] But this looks like the kind of thing, if it's like $5, I would probably pay $5 and play it for a little bit. +[5207.88 --> 5209.88] This also isn't the first time we've seen it. +[5209.88 --> 5212.88] This is just the first time we've seen this awesome demo. +[5212.88 --> 5215.88] So this is some alpha gameplay footage. +[5216.88 --> 5228.88] This is a game mechanic that makes sense. +[5228.88 --> 5230.88] This better come with physics. +[5230.88 --> 5233.82] You get the word for just doing things. +[5234.54 --> 5236.12] Oh, his head is banging against all the rugs. +[5236.40 --> 5236.60] Yeah. +[5239.48 --> 5242.84] Because this is a game mechanic that makes sense. +[5243.54 --> 5244.50] This better come with physics. +[5245.86 --> 5246.34] Yeah. +[5246.78 --> 5247.64] Oh, oh. +[5249.52 --> 5252.12] Car plus ragdoll, 64 times 2. +[5254.46 --> 5256.26] So, okay, I think we're done here. +[5256.50 --> 5256.76] Yeah. +[5257.02 --> 5259.14] But there you go, guys. +[5259.14 --> 5259.98] You can check that out. +[5259.98 --> 5262.82] Goat Simulator, first alpha gameplay on YouTube. +[5263.66 --> 5267.18] If you want to watch something that makes absolutely no sense, +[5267.34 --> 5270.96] but just somehow entices me to buy it. +[5271.70 --> 5271.78] I want to benchmark it. +[5271.78 --> 5273.78] I really want it to be a benchmarking video. +[5273.94 --> 5277.26] How to build a rig that's perfectly optimized for Goat Simulator. +[5277.44 --> 5278.92] Yeah, we should actually do it. +[5279.48 --> 5281.78] For updates that haven't happened in quite a while, +[5282.32 --> 5284.66] the folding team is doing quite well. +[5284.78 --> 5287.90] We're in 52nd position overall for folding, +[5287.90 --> 5291.66] which is actually kind of insane with how young the team is, +[5292.06 --> 5295.58] just because the form hasn't even existed for that long, +[5295.58 --> 5298.82] and that's what drove the start of the Linus Tech Tips folding team. +[5298.90 --> 5299.70] So that's epic. +[5300.26 --> 5302.90] We should be within the top 50 in about a week, +[5303.04 --> 5304.28] which is also really cool. +[5304.28 --> 5307.66] And we're number 8 for active folders, +[5307.66 --> 5310.98] which is also huge and extremely cool. +[5311.52 --> 5313.56] The Star Citizen team, which you should join, +[5314.04 --> 5317.10] is I think we're number 1 in activity right now, +[5317.12 --> 5319.68] and we're number 6 in the world for member count. +[5319.68 --> 5322.20] And I think, honestly, within the next day or two, +[5322.46 --> 5324.06] we'll probably be number 3rd, +[5324.16 --> 5326.56] meaning we will be front paging for most members, +[5326.72 --> 5329.52] and we will be on the top and front paging for activity, +[5330.08 --> 5330.76] which is epic. +[5330.86 --> 5332.46] So if you're looking for a team to join for Star Citizen, +[5332.92 --> 5335.16] I would definitely join us. +[5335.16 --> 5340.68] It's funny you mentioned the Steam music streaming, +[5340.84 --> 5345.04] because it's not in big picture on the Windows client, +[5345.28 --> 5350.32] but I swear there was something about video in SteamOS, +[5351.04 --> 5354.66] and I'd have to fire up my Steam machine to have a look at it again. +[5354.98 --> 5357.96] But I wonder if local video streaming +[5357.96 --> 5359.58] is something that they're looking at adding. +[5359.58 --> 5362.48] The idea, and if you read through the music thing, +[5362.56 --> 5363.80] it plays into that very well, +[5363.80 --> 5366.86] because the guy's talking about how they're trying to be, +[5367.56 --> 5369.12] they're trying to make it so that's all you need. +[5369.94 --> 5370.04] Yeah. +[5370.20 --> 5371.24] You won't need anything else. +[5371.40 --> 5373.32] So supporting video makes a lot of sense. +[5373.48 --> 5375.08] And it's probably not going to be a thing +[5375.08 --> 5376.96] where you can buy movies through the Steam store. +[5377.30 --> 5380.08] It's probably going to be a thing just like how music works, +[5380.16 --> 5381.04] which is where it's like, +[5381.20 --> 5383.44] point at this directory, and then you can play things. +[5383.70 --> 5383.92] Yeah. +[5384.02 --> 5385.10] That makes a ton of sense. +[5385.58 --> 5386.72] That's probably how that's going to work. +[5386.72 --> 5388.22] I really, really hope that that comes, +[5388.22 --> 5389.90] because that would mean that I would pretty much +[5389.90 --> 5392.06] never need to leave big picture on my HTPC. +[5392.72 --> 5393.42] Whereas right now, +[5393.42 --> 5394.32] I was like, +[5394.44 --> 5394.94] oh, okay, +[5395.00 --> 5396.36] I guess I need like a video player +[5396.36 --> 5398.74] if I'm going to legitimately replace my Windows machine. +[5398.98 --> 5399.72] Not happening yet. +[5400.02 --> 5401.32] Speaking of my Windows machine, +[5401.46 --> 5402.70] I discovered something interesting +[5402.70 --> 5404.16] about Steam and home streaming. +[5404.40 --> 5405.48] And that is that +[5405.48 --> 5408.22] even if you have a pretty powerful CPU, +[5409.06 --> 5410.58] the CPU-based decoding +[5410.58 --> 5414.34] is just not low latency enough. +[5414.42 --> 5415.36] It's not good enough +[5415.36 --> 5416.52] to have a 1080p +[5416.52 --> 5419.20] or even really stutter-free experience overall. +[5419.20 --> 5424.18] I'm still using a Linfield 760 +[5424.18 --> 5425.60] or something like that. +[5425.76 --> 5426.76] No, 7... +[5426.76 --> 5428.24] Crap, I can't even remember anymore. +[5428.36 --> 5428.62] Anyway, +[5428.86 --> 5430.00] the point is that +[5430.00 --> 5433.48] it was the last Intel CPU +[5433.48 --> 5437.66] that didn't have a hardware-based H.264 decoder +[5437.66 --> 5439.68] on the integrated GPU. +[5440.26 --> 5441.92] So what I'm going to do this weekend +[5441.92 --> 5443.76] is I'm going to take this graphics card home +[5443.76 --> 5445.42] because it's the only one that we have +[5445.42 --> 5446.74] that's actually short enough +[5446.74 --> 5448.38] to install in my home theater PC. +[5448.66 --> 5449.64] And I'm going to see +[5449.64 --> 5451.44] if this makes the difference +[5451.44 --> 5453.70] between that PC being able to run +[5453.70 --> 5455.28] in-home streaming satisfactorily +[5455.28 --> 5456.18] or doesn't. +[5456.26 --> 5456.76] Because initially, +[5456.76 --> 5458.56] I thought it was Powerline Network +[5458.56 --> 5460.32] that was causing the frame drops +[5460.32 --> 5461.78] as much as 20% to 30% +[5461.78 --> 5463.40] of my frames were being lost. +[5463.64 --> 5463.76] Wow. +[5463.92 --> 5465.26] And then I concluded +[5465.26 --> 5466.18] that that wasn't it +[5466.18 --> 5467.04] when I bought +[5467.04 --> 5468.90] a 50-foot Cat 6 cable, +[5469.30 --> 5470.66] ran it down my stairs, +[5471.00 --> 5472.22] like across my hallway, +[5472.62 --> 5473.16] and I was like, +[5473.24 --> 5473.52] oh. +[5473.70 --> 5474.10] Oh. +[5474.50 --> 5475.44] It's not fixed. +[5475.50 --> 5475.78] Okay, +[5475.90 --> 5476.52] I guess it's time +[5476.52 --> 5477.88] to get a graphics card then. +[5478.20 --> 5479.06] So this card +[5479.06 --> 5480.82] has a built-in H.264 decoder. +[5480.90 --> 5481.14] Actually, +[5481.24 --> 5482.06] this is a Kepler card, +[5482.12 --> 5483.56] so this has an encoder as well. +[5484.00 --> 5485.88] But there is so much more +[5485.88 --> 5486.36] to be done +[5486.36 --> 5487.20] within home streaming. +[5487.56 --> 5488.10] For one thing, +[5488.14 --> 5489.24] they've added some more resolution, +[5489.44 --> 5491.06] so you can stream at 480p now. +[5491.28 --> 5492.90] And I saw some interesting behavior +[5492.90 --> 5493.98] when I was playing around with it. +[5494.02 --> 5495.56] I haven't really dug into it again +[5495.56 --> 5496.54] since I did my video, +[5496.94 --> 5498.28] and they've changed some stuff since then. +[5498.30 --> 5499.46] But I saw the resolution +[5499.46 --> 5500.52] changing dynamically +[5500.52 --> 5501.66] during a stream +[5501.66 --> 5503.02] rather than just frame rate. +[5503.52 --> 5503.88] Resolution. +[5504.14 --> 5504.30] Yeah, +[5504.44 --> 5506.30] and it was like 1600x900 +[5506.30 --> 5508.18] or 1680x1050 or something. +[5508.42 --> 5509.60] Like it was in between. +[5510.04 --> 5511.04] It was a tweener res. +[5511.04 --> 5512.20] It wasn't 1920 +[5512.20 --> 5513.24] and it wasn't 720. +[5513.56 --> 5514.80] But maybe it was like +[5514.80 --> 5515.84] my eye is playing tricks on me. +[5515.88 --> 5517.00] I've got to play around with it some more. +[5517.60 --> 5519.44] But there is still +[5519.44 --> 5521.04] so much more that they can do. +[5521.34 --> 5522.28] If they can figure out +[5522.28 --> 5523.14] how to take advantage +[5523.14 --> 5526.00] of Kepler's onboard hardware encoder, +[5526.76 --> 5527.52] which I don't believe +[5527.52 --> 5528.32] they're doing right now, +[5528.52 --> 5529.40] and they can find a way +[5529.40 --> 5530.86] to take advantage of, +[5531.22 --> 5532.06] which they've already done, +[5532.12 --> 5533.24] the hardware decoders, +[5533.42 --> 5534.34] we could be looking at +[5534.34 --> 5536.36] a low enough latency experience +[5536.36 --> 5537.92] that it will be +[5537.92 --> 5539.40] kind of like sitting in front of it. +[5539.40 --> 5540.40] I mean, +[5540.46 --> 5541.84] and with good enough hardware now, +[5541.96 --> 5542.20] even, +[5542.28 --> 5543.46] you can get pretty darn close, +[5543.60 --> 5545.62] but we're just not quite there yet. +[5545.62 --> 5547.28] Some people have raised concerns +[5547.28 --> 5548.52] about the California bill, +[5548.70 --> 5550.36] saying that's exactly the same +[5550.36 --> 5553.26] as what the Ukraine government wants +[5553.26 --> 5554.46] and how the Uncle Sam's +[5554.46 --> 5555.12] going to have a kill switch +[5555.12 --> 5555.66] on your device. +[5556.20 --> 5558.12] I don't think, +[5558.28 --> 5560.18] I'm pretty sure it's 100% user controlled. +[5560.68 --> 5561.50] Yeah, but I mean, +[5561.62 --> 5563.00] I mentioned this earlier +[5563.00 --> 5563.64] in the show too. +[5563.90 --> 5565.58] Just because it's user controlled +[5565.58 --> 5566.20] doesn't mean it's... +[5566.20 --> 5567.14] Doesn't mean that there isn't +[5567.14 --> 5568.16] some sort of backdoor, +[5568.26 --> 5569.06] and with all the stuff +[5569.06 --> 5570.02] NSA is doing lately, +[5570.10 --> 5571.18] that is actually kind of freaky. +[5571.60 --> 5573.28] Usually, I do think of those things. +[5573.78 --> 5574.10] Yeah. +[5574.28 --> 5575.44] Didn't really think about it this time, +[5575.48 --> 5576.90] so that's something definitely +[5576.90 --> 5578.78] really important to consider. +[5578.82 --> 5579.76] And to those speculating +[5579.76 --> 5580.88] that I'm wearing sunglasses +[5580.88 --> 5582.12] because my wife beat me, +[5582.30 --> 5583.96] you are 100% correct. +[5584.06 --> 5584.94] I knew you were going to say that. +[5586.52 --> 5588.42] Thanks for watching the show today, guys. +[5588.50 --> 5589.38] If you tuned in late, +[5589.38 --> 5590.86] the archive will be up later, +[5591.30 --> 5591.74] and... +[5591.74 --> 5592.42] Nah, I changed my mind. +[5593.78 --> 5594.92] I think that's pretty much it. +[5595.14 --> 5595.34] Yeah. +[5595.48 --> 5596.06] Peace out, guys. +[5596.14 --> 5596.90] Thanks so much for watching. +[5597.26 --> 5597.74] See you later. +[5599.48 --> 5600.22] Thanks for watching. +[5602.88 --> 5604.26] Are you sure you thanked them enough? +[5605.04 --> 5605.98] Thank you for... +[5605.98 --> 5607.52] Thank you for listening to me. +[5607.56

always the okay something's probably wrong +[20.12 --> 24.62] No, we did a pre-show today. There's nothing wrong. Everything is fine +[26.10 --> 28.54] Right now we didn't test any of the scenes +[28.54 --> 33.46] Uh, that's okay. Most of them are the same and test your laptop +[33.46 --> 38.92] Um, no, we tested the laptop. Oh, we did yeah. Okay. Yeah. I tested it while you weren't looking boom +[38.92 --> 42.10] I test all kinds of things while you're not looking. That's awkward +[42.10 --> 44.92] Do you test poll results while I'm not looking? +[45.54 --> 50.02] Poll results. No, we're not gonna get into that yet. I have a whole I have a whole thing +[50.02 --> 55.38] I have a whole thing on that speaking of a whole thing on stuff +[55.38 --> 60.30] Um, hold on a second so the +[61.02 --> 70.44] WAN show soundcloud I'm gonna try and find it but we actually have a WAN show podcast feed now so +[70.68 --> 78.94] Tera Teren set it up and I don't know where the email is about it and apparently you can't just google podcast +[78.94 --> 84.78] Hey, uh Teren can you send me the link to the soundcloud thing so I can share it with the peeps? +[86.86 --> 87.86] Thank you +[87.86 --> 91.20] Soundcloud.com slash the WAN show. Oh, we got it +[93.34 --> 94.74] Yep +[94.74 --> 101.22] Okay, so guys, it's soundcloud.com slash the WAN show. I don't think we are quite +[101.22 --> 106.86] caught up yet because we don't really have like a smooth procedure for +[107.86 --> 114.62] Taking the video feed which is a stupid FLV file with the desynced audio and the bleh all that kind of stuff +[114.70 --> 119.86] But there you go guys all the entire history of the WAN show has been +[119.86 --> 127.78] Almost almost almost has been archived on soundcloud you can download it as a podcast listen to it in the car or +[128.10 --> 134.46] Wherever else people listen to podcasts. I've never been much of a podcast listener myself, but even almost this isn't into 2014 yet +[135.10 --> 139.78] Oh, October 11th. Well, hold on a second. Are you sure it's not just like later on? +[140.26 --> 145.62] Or something I look down there and went further back August 2013 July 2013 +[145.62 --> 151.16] Well, whatever guys we'll get this we'll get this all caught up for you and everything will be all good and fine and dandy so +[151.84 --> 155.78] All right, let's get into our first real topic shall we oh no +[155.78 --> 165.46] We have to do our introductory topics which unfortunately these guys already saw which is a real shame because we accidentally streamed while we were creating our YouTube intro instead of +[167.30 --> 173.00] Recording that locally and then uploading it so why don't we pick different highlights for the folks here right now +[173.00 --> 178.14] Asus has demonstrated a V Ram defroster feature +[178.14 --> 184.30] So you're actually gonna have a separate plug on your graphics card dedicated to heating up your memory +[185.30 --> 188.88] Which sounds bad, but it actually makes sense. Yeah, we'll explain that later +[188.88 --> 195.26] Also Intel has a new Thunderbolt controller that they are working on that should be able to derive two +[195.92 --> 199.24] 4k displays off of a single connector +[199.24 --> 204.00] I should be wearing my holy balls shirt not my professional on boxer shirt because that's a big deal +[204.00 --> 205.38] It is actually what else we got +[205.38 --> 211.80] Google is is gonna be ending forcing Google plus integration towards everyone and there's more details on that later +[211.92 --> 218.42] Yeah, that's huge and then Facebook has actually finally been approved to actually buy oculus +[218.42 --> 224.24] So yeah, that'll be a short topic, but we'll talk about that later. All right, so without further ado intro time +[224.24 --> 226.24] I really hope there's music. I didn't test it +[226.24 --> 231.00] All right, there's music +[231.00 --> 235.00] I +[235.00 --> 242.40] Know I thought there was a poll about whether there's music or whether I'd have to sing +[242.40 --> 249.16] This is what happens when people let me see the polls head time +[249.16 --> 251.16] So never show me your poll +[251.16 --> 257.16] All right, so hotspot shield is one of our sponsors today hotspot shield is the fast easy and expensive way to set up a VPN +[257.16 --> 259.92] You can access content that's outside of your region +[259.92 --> 263.92] You can browse more privately and all that great stuff also sponsoring the show today +[263.92 --> 268.68] Actually our title sponsors you can see powered by sus g7 50 jz +[268.68 --> 273.44] jay-z is asus with the as you may or may not have guessed +[273.44 --> 278.20] G7 50 jay-z gaming laptop so gangster of all laptops this +[278.20 --> 280.78] Yeah, yeah, well it kind of it kind of went that way +[280.78 --> 282.20] I'm not gonna drop the jay-z thing +[282.20 --> 283.20] Just jay-z +[283.20 --> 287.96] You're gonna keep me you know, what's even funny is I conceded I made your joke +[287.96 --> 291.96] I made your joke in the video thumbnail of the actual review of the laptop +[291.96 --> 292.96] I saw that +[292.96 --> 296.60] And I figured that would get you to stop making the joke +[296.60 --> 296.96] Nope +[296.96 --> 302.84] The joke isn't played out for you. The joke is just gonna carry on until eternity. All right. Well, that's probably it +[302.84 --> 305.70] That's fine. That makes me very very pleased +[305.70 --> 309.40] So, uh, thank you asus and hotspot shield for sponsoring the show today +[309.40 --> 313.54] Let's get things going get into our first topic here. What should we get started with? +[313.54 --> 314.60] Why don't we start at the top? +[314.60 --> 318.34] Let's start at the top and work our way to the bottom if you know what I mean +[318.34 --> 320.48] I didn't need it if you know what I mean +[320.48 --> 321.84] I was fine +[321.84 --> 323.44] If you know what I mean +[323.44 --> 325.60] You're all fine +[325.60 --> 326.94] Oh man +[326.94 --> 330.10] Hitting on the entire audience one step at a time +[330.10 --> 336.58] So okay guys, we've got a fantastic topic here. This was posted by Kakao Day G +[336.58 --> 337.38] DJ +[337.38 --> 341.62] Day G, whatever it happens to be. What is that? Oh, I see it. No, no, it's okay +[341.62 --> 344.42] This needs to be removed. There we go +[344.42 --> 345.22] Um +[345.22 --> 350.34] So this is an asus rog article that +[350.34 --> 351.78] What are you doing? +[352.24 --> 355.46] I'm modding certain people. Don't worry about it. Keep going. Oh, okay +[355.46 --> 357.12] You can mod people +[357.12 --> 359.72] I've heard of computer modding +[359.72 --> 361.72] And car modding +[361.72 --> 364.20] Well, there's body mods, right? +[364.20 --> 365.00] Body mods +[365.00 --> 367.00] Yeah, like tattoos and piercing +[367.00 --> 369.48] Do you have any? No. I guess I would have known +[369.48 --> 371.48] You actually probably would have at this point +[371.48 --> 383.48] So there's an article on asus rog that outlines why a graphics card could ever want a separate heater module for the memory +[383.48 --> 385.48] So this is called their matrix memory defroster +[385.48 --> 387.48] matrix memory defroster +[387.48 --> 389.48] And if you look at the page you're supporting +[389.48 --> 391.48] I don't care. I don't care +[391.48 --> 393.48] Go away internet explorer +[393.48 --> 399.48] Okay, so it shows you a graphics card that's being cooled by presumably liquid nitrogen or +[399.48 --> 401.48] Okay, looks like liquid nitrogen since there's a +[401.48 --> 403.96] A canister here so being cooled by liquid nitrogen +[403.96 --> 410.04] And it shows how this frost can accumulate on the back of the card now +[410.44 --> 416.44] Memory can suffer from certain issues like cold bugs in much the same way that processors can +[416.44 --> 422.04] So what this does is it actually keeps the memory at a temperature that isn't +[422.04 --> 427.64] So cold that it bugs out, but it's still cold enough that you're going to get better overclocking out of it +[427.64 --> 432.20] And it's just one less thing for pro overclockers to worry about +[432.20 --> 437.08] I think my comment on this back when I first saw it is probably, you know +[437.56 --> 442.12] About as as right as anything could ever be just like anything I say. I'm just kidding +[442.12 --> 444.28] I can be wrong about all kinds of things in fact +[444.28 --> 451.00] I was wrong about something on the show last week and I I owe an apology to someone that I was wrong about something about +[451.00 --> 452.44] Um +[452.44 --> 457.80] GPU versus CPU actual total thermal output. I was going based on temperature +[458.28 --> 462.68] Not based on the actual thermal output. So GPUs I have been informed although +[463.08 --> 466.76] We're probably going to just test it at some point even though I I believe them +[467.00 --> 473.40] I believe them so GPUs just have lower thermal density, which means their temperatures are lower even though the thermal output is actually quite high +[473.96 --> 475.24] So there you have it +[475.24 --> 479.00] I can be wrong about things and I don't even remember what I'm talking about anymore +[479.00 --> 481.96] Right, so the comment I made at the time was okay +[482.28 --> 489.08] So asus has developed a feature for their rog class cards that is going to have probably +[489.64 --> 493.48] Thousands of people who know what it is and what it does and and why it exists +[493.48 --> 494.44] It's going to have +[494.44 --> 501.32] Maybe a hundreds of people who care and then it's going to have maybe dozens of people who are actually going to use it +[501.32 --> 503.88] But you know what if you you know +[505.24 --> 510.36] It's easy to just throw up your hands and say okay, it's impossible to innovate on graphics cards +[511.08 --> 518.60] It's hard to keep trying to find ways to push the envelope and without you know guys like asus building in features like this +[518.60 --> 524.92] We wouldn't have things like built-in voltage checkpoints to actually monitor the voltage of your GPU +[524.92 --> 531.24] Something that is a very cool diagnostic tool when you're overclocking and like very useful even if you're not doing LN2 cooling +[531.32 --> 535.32] You can buy a multimeter for like 20 bucks at Canadian tire if you're Canadian +[535.88 --> 537.88] Um or wherever you buy those things +[537.88 --> 539.88] American tire +[539.88 --> 541.88] Walmart +[541.88 --> 543.88] Walmart +[543.88 --> 549.88] So you can buy a multimeter on the cheap and then it can really help you diagnose whether that voltage slider is actually doing anything +[550.44 --> 553.64] Whether your card over volts or under volts all this stuff's really great +[553.64 --> 557.32] So without these kinds of innovations that might seem useless one by one +[557.64 --> 560.36] We wouldn't have the great graphics cards that we have today +[560.44 --> 563.96] So kudos to asus for thinking outside the box on this one +[564.52 --> 567.40] And I guess that's all I pretty much have to say about that +[567.40 --> 570.52] What's our next topic because I'm trying to do a thing here? +[571.72 --> 574.92] Uh, sorry. I was also trying to do a thing. I will find our next topic though +[574.92 --> 579.88] The next topic is supreme court decides on the future of tv featuring aereo +[580.28 --> 583.64] Oh, this is this is cray cray +[583.64 --> 584.84] Is it aereo or aero? +[585.40 --> 586.44] Aereo I would guess +[586.44 --> 587.16] Aereo sure okay +[587.16 --> 591.56] All right, so this is actually probably the biggest topic of the day +[591.56 --> 595.24] So the way that aereo works is +[596.76 --> 598.12] By okay by +[598.92 --> 601.72] It all depends on how you word it +[601.72 --> 604.20] So original article here is from washingtonpost.com +[604.20 --> 609.48] Although there was another one that was actually quite helpful when I was when I was reading up on this +[609.48 --> 611.32] Yeah from the guardian and there was another one +[611.32 --> 616.92] I was reading and another one I was reading that I mean the information about this is hard to find +[616.92 --> 623.08] From an unbiased source because this is a topic that is extremely polarizing +[623.08 --> 625.32] So let's start with how aereo works +[625.80 --> 628.84] What it does is it takes ota tv signals +[628.84 --> 633.64] So these are just broadcast tv signals that anyone with you know +[634.44 --> 639.16] A duck a hamster a piece of toast and most importantly an antenna and a television +[639.72 --> 641.32] Especially those last two yeah +[641.32 --> 647.56] And then anyone with an antenna and a television can tune into these signals and watch tv +[647.56 --> 649.88] So all the tv that I had when I was a kid +[649.88 --> 656.76] Yes, so over the air television what aereo does is it takes over the air television lets you subscribe +[658.44 --> 662.68] Rent an antenna in their array of antennas +[663.48 --> 666.44] Rent because it's not subscription. They don't look it +[666.44 --> 671.88] So they let you rent an antenna in their antenna array rent cloud storage space +[672.28 --> 680.52] And then it allows you to tune in to ota broadcasts through your internet connection and even use their +[681.96 --> 689.80] Their rentable storage space as a pvr or dvr whatever video recorder without with a p with a d I don't care +[690.44 --> 692.04] so +[692.12 --> 693.32] What the okay? +[693.32 --> 699.16] So the issue here it's hard to not it's hard to not say things that are worded as if they come off negatively or positively +[700.12 --> 700.36] Yeah +[702.28 --> 712.20] So the issue is that other broadcasters are alleging that aereo is no different from cable and satellite firms that are required to pay fees +[712.36 --> 722.36] To rebroadcast their shows what aereo is arguing is that a private broadcast and this this is like 40 year old rulings that they're going back to here +[722.36 --> 724.36] That a private +[724.36 --> 730.04] Broadcast is not the same as a public broadcast and because it's an individual user +[730.68 --> 738.68] Accessing content that they would have otherwise had if they just got an antenna and hooked up a dvr like they're not doing anything +[738.68 --> 740.68] They couldn't have otherwise done +[740.68 --> 742.84] There is so it's a private broadcast +[743.24 --> 748.84] So I don't remember if that sentence made any sense. You know what guys I have slept so little this week like even less than usual +[748.84 --> 750.84] And this topic is very +[750.84 --> 757.56] Convoluted and awkward and and the topic is convoluted whereas what the broadcasters are saying is that aereo is taking +[757.80 --> 759.80] copyrighted material and +[759.80 --> 762.12] profiting off of it without paying +[762.92 --> 768.12] Anyone any fees so they're just taking money and profiting off of it and then +[768.92 --> 773.16] Advocacy groups for the other side are saying well hold on just a minute. Why should they be paying for it? +[773.16 --> 775.16] Anyway, there's already commercials on it +[775.72 --> 779.64] So you guys so sorry start firing back at the broadcasters +[779.64 --> 786.36] You guys are just trying to maintain your whole double dipping business model and squash a potential competitor +[786.68 --> 793.72] Who really all they're doing is enabling consumers to use the technology or to use the content that is already there? +[794.68 --> 799.16] Use the technology they have to access content that is already there and already accessible to them +[799.16 --> 805.64] One thing that was missing from both this washington post article and the other one that we're referring to here +[805.64 --> 809.08] Was actually posted by a commenter on one of the other articles? +[809.08 --> 814.76] I was reading about this who said well hold on a second something people are kind of missing here is that aereo only +[815.32 --> 818.68] Allows you to subscribe within your own catchment area +[819.24 --> 822.44] So you you actually can't subscribe to aereo in +[823.00 --> 826.44] You know, new york if you're in florida for example +[826.44 --> 832.92] You you have to subscribe and like anything there are yeah workarounds and actually that's another big thing is uh +[833.08 --> 834.20] Is that even on the dock? +[834.20 --> 835.72] I think it is +[835.72 --> 840.52] That hulu is shutting down yeah users if it's not just throw a note in there +[840.92 --> 842.36] We'll make sure we talk about that later +[842.36 --> 844.52] But there are of course ways to circumvent it +[844.76 --> 851.24] But the way that it's supposed to work is just as a way for you to access the ota content +[851.24 --> 857.48] Without subscribing to an expensive cable package that contains a lot of stuff that you likely don't care about +[859.00 --> 859.56] so +[859.56 --> 861.24] I +[861.24 --> 866.84] See both sides of this one so that was the whole me struggling through the the explanation of what's going on +[866.84 --> 868.12] I hope you guys kind of get it +[868.12 --> 873.08] Let me know if you don't post in the twitch chat if if it doesn't if what I said didn't make any sense +[873.72 --> 877.48] But i'll give sort of my two cents on both sides of this on the one hand +[878.12 --> 884.20] If you're creating premium content and someone is profiting off of the distribution of it +[884.92 --> 893.88] They are effectively undercutting the distribution partners who are paying you and I can understand why you're going after someone who's pursuing that model +[894.28 --> 896.36] one of the justices that's um +[897.32 --> 904.12] I don't think they're actually going to be involved in the case, but one of the one of the us justices that has commented on the situation +[904.60 --> 911.40] Said that looking through aria's business model they seem to be it seems to be structured entirely +[911.72 --> 914.44] to circumvent the existing laws and +[915.56 --> 922.76] That the actual the essence of what they're doing is just flat-out right wrong and i'm paraphrasing a little bit here because i can't find the quote right now +[923.32 --> 925.48] But i don't necessarily +[926.28 --> 928.28] I see it from aria's side as well +[928.68 --> 935.56] Because what they're doing is just allowing people to use 21st century technology that they have +[935.80 --> 941.80] And i mean quite frankly you're you're already going to be helping out your local cable provider by paying for an internet subscription +[942.20 --> 949.08] Anyway, so they're using technology that we have to just do something that already exists and do it a little bit better +[949.08 --> 956.36] One interesting thing that someone has brought up is that you can rig this up yourself +[956.92 --> 964.04] Yes, and that's that's the whole defense here for aria is that this is something you can do yourself +[964.92 --> 969.64] Yeah, it's just that they're making it accessible and they're charging people a convenience fee +[969.64 --> 977.80] Yeah, now if they were if what they were doing was they were tuning into ota and then they were um +[978.84 --> 980.84] and then they were like +[981.96 --> 984.68] re-transmitting it over the the airwaves or if they had +[985.08 --> 986.20] um a site +[986.20 --> 991.56] I guess that you that you went on to and then anyone like a site like twitch.tv, okay? +[991.56 --> 998.84] Where anyone can tune into their rebroadcast that would be a public rebroadcast, but the way that it's structured is +[999.48 --> 1003.80] That antenna you're you're renting it you're leasing it you're you're whatever +[1003.80 --> 1007.00] I guess if you really wanted to you could buy an antenna, but then you'd just be doing it yourself +[1007.00 --> 1011.96] But like instead of buying it you are renting it and that antenna is just for you +[1012.84 --> 1015.48] So they're not rebroadcasting it publicly +[1016.84 --> 1018.12] I think they're gonna lose +[1018.12 --> 1020.60] I think so too, but it's a really interesting argument +[1020.60 --> 1022.36] I think they're gonna lose +[1022.36 --> 1026.44] But I think at the end of the day this is just gonna be whack-a-mole +[1027.08 --> 1028.04] where +[1028.04 --> 1030.12] someone else will find a +[1030.76 --> 1032.76] similar loophole and +[1032.92 --> 1039.96] The conventional media guys are just going to have to keep knocking these little guys down one at a time +[1040.76 --> 1045.16] And something will get through I mean the thing here is that ario has sorry +[1047.24 --> 1048.20] Ario yeah, sorry +[1048.20 --> 1049.96] I'm really tired +[1049.96 --> 1054.68] Ario has already won a couple of cases in lower courts +[1054.68 --> 1059.56] This is the first time it's going to the supreme court. They've already won a couple they lost one. They lost the most recent one +[1060.12 --> 1061.48] so +[1061.48 --> 1066.44] This really could go either way and I think according to the letter of the law +[1066.92 --> 1068.92] Ario is probably right +[1068.92 --> 1074.92] Currently yes, but like what i've been reading on some of what the justices have been saying is they might need to kind of fix things +[1074.92 --> 1077.24] So this can't happen because when they wrote that law +[1077.24 --> 1078.36] It was a long time ago +[1078.36 --> 1082.36] It was a long time ago and they didn't expect stuff like this to be able to happen +[1083.16 --> 1088.52] So now that it can happen maybe the laws have to change which is annoying to preempt to like +[1088.92 --> 1094.20] After the fact change a law. I hate doing that with things like the coc on the forum and stuff because it's really annoying +[1094.36 --> 1097.64] But but the thing about it is that laws need to adapt +[1098.20 --> 1103.64] I mean, how would you make a law about cybercrime 50 years ago when it doesn't when it doesn't exist? +[1103.64 --> 1107.24] Yeah, you know how so I I totally +[1108.84 --> 1111.64] understand the issue here because +[1113.64 --> 1120.20] The entire business model of creating this content is based on getting kickbacks from the distributors of the content +[1120.84 --> 1126.60] I understand that but on the other hand, I understand the argument that that system is +[1127.40 --> 1132.68] Fundamentally broken right now and something needs to shake it up. I don't know if a real is going to be the thing that shakes it up +[1133.24 --> 1137.00] but what I do know is that something will have to shake it up because +[1138.04 --> 1141.24] It's a problem. I mean it's gotten to the point where I +[1142.68 --> 1145.48] Will not pay to watch a hockey game +[1146.20 --> 1149.40] Because for me to pay to watch a hockey game and I just don't watch them +[1149.64 --> 1153.48] That's that's the solution for me because for me to pay to watch a hockey game +[1153.56 --> 1157.80] I have to buy a cable tv subscription that includes a bunch of crap. I don't care about +[1159.32 --> 1161.56] And I have to pay a whole whack ton of money for it +[1161.56 --> 1164.60] And I'm kind of sitting here going no, I refuse I won't do it +[1165.16 --> 1169.48] For big events like uh, the super bowl and all that kind of stuff +[1169.72 --> 1173.00] We we just we all my friends pack up because we all don't have +[1173.96 --> 1176.36] Cable tv none of us and we all go to my parents +[1176.60 --> 1178.84] Well, it's funny because everyone talks about cord cutters +[1179.32 --> 1183.16] But there's a whole other the like the entire the group of people my age are +[1183.16 --> 1189.96] I heard the term cord nevers and I really liked it because the only time I've ever had a cable tv subscription that I've +[1190.36 --> 1194.84] Well, I was gonna say that I have paid for was when they gave me a free trial with my internet +[1194.84 --> 1197.64] That I didn't pay for and then canceled as soon as I had to pay for it +[1197.64 --> 1199.64] I never even took the free trial +[1199.64 --> 1201.80] It was kind of handy. I don't even want it was playoffs +[1202.36 --> 1205.48] That makes sense. I took the free trial and I was like, oh, that's great +[1205.80 --> 1208.52] By the time this is over. I don't have any hockey to watch anyway +[1209.08 --> 1209.80] Yeah, exactly +[1210.04 --> 1214.60] My thing was I was scared because I just assumed that after the free trial it was just gonna start billing me +[1214.60 --> 1215.32] Yeah, it does +[1215.32 --> 1217.80] Yeah, and I was going to school at the time and I was like, I'm gonna forget about this +[1217.80 --> 1220.28] And I'm gonna get a bill and I'm not gonna be able to afford it. It's gonna be bad +[1220.28 --> 1224.44] Now I just I just set up a google calendar reminder and then I just I the the shaw +[1225.00 --> 1230.52] Office is actually between mine and my in-laws house, so I just grabbed the box dropped it off there. I'm like, yeah, we're done +[1231.88 --> 1233.16] Like do you still want your internet? Yeah +[1233.16 --> 1235.40] Yeah, I'm good with the internet +[1235.40 --> 1236.76] Thanks for the trial though +[1236.76 --> 1243.24] So I mean for me the fundamental problem here is that the is that the the providers the cable providers in particular can't +[1243.80 --> 1252.52] Decide how they want this to work, okay when it comes to tv they want us to pay for a large all-you-can-eat packages and +[1254.04 --> 1257.08] Then just give us whatever we whatever we could possibly want +[1257.80 --> 1262.60] And then when it comes to cell phone and internet by the way in canada anyway +[1262.60 --> 1269.00] And I know in a lot of places there's a lot of overlap between tv cell phone and internet so so when it comes to cell phone and internet +[1269.48 --> 1270.68] Oh, well hold on a second +[1270.68 --> 1273.40] We want more of a pay-as-you-go type model here +[1273.40 --> 1277.64] And you you pay for the things you use and I'm kind of sitting here going okay, you know what? +[1278.28 --> 1282.92] I get it either way okay, you want it you want to package things you want to have a flat rate +[1283.40 --> 1285.48] Sort of fee okay, I get it +[1285.80 --> 1289.56] I won't I'm not going to subscribe because I don't care about that stuff, but I understand your point +[1290.04 --> 1297.72] Okay, you want me to pay per usage because there's a certain amount of congestion on a network or whatever else you want to minimize that +[1297.72 --> 1303.80] I get that but you got to make up your mind you can't be like oh well when it suits us you can pay as you go +[1303.80 --> 1309.80] And when it doesn't suit us then we want you to take the whole the whole thing you got to give me options here because +[1310.44 --> 1317.24] That just that does not that does not fly for me because I would have no problem paying for tv if I could say okay +[1317.24 --> 1320.12] I want sportsnet tsn and +[1321.64 --> 1324.28] Like I don't know cartoon network +[1324.28 --> 1326.28] It's like it I +[1327.00 --> 1331.40] Remember when when my parents were actually somewhat interested in getting a cable connection way back in the day +[1331.64 --> 1335.24] We went through the show catalog, and I was like I want that one and +[1336.68 --> 1339.24] Maybe that one and then I'm done. Yeah +[1339.96 --> 1344.68] So I don't care about like any of that and my dad my brother and I had overlaps on all of those +[1345.00 --> 1348.28] And then that was about it right and you guys never did end up getting one +[1348.28 --> 1353.00] Did you I think we had one while my grandpa was here, and then I think it was gone right very shortly after +[1355.16 --> 1358.28] And then that's about it all right, so why don't we talk about your back door here? +[1359.00 --> 1363.32] Oh, wow, it's not my back door. Well, it's a back door. It's many people's back doors all right +[1364.60 --> 1366.60] Because that makes it better +[1367.32 --> 1367.80] um +[1367.80 --> 1372.28] A security researcher has found that there was a back door a dsl routers that was found a little while ago +[1372.28 --> 1376.68] I think like a month ago or something and then there was a patch you should talk about what the back door does +[1377.00 --> 1381.56] So the back door allows you to I was getting into that after the patch and then the cover up +[1381.56 --> 1387.48] And then I was going to tell people what that was so essentially there was there was then a patch which fixed the problem +[1387.88 --> 1393.24] The same guy then found that the patch was just kind of a cover-up and it couldn't be removed very easily +[1393.24 --> 1400.52] So what it does is allows you administrative access to the router so all administrative controls you can control so gg router +[1401.16 --> 1405.32] You can flash lights you can do you can see packets you can do all that kind of stuff +[1405.32 --> 1411.40] It's pretty aggressive the way that the secret is removed is just literally by sending a knock that knock though +[1411.40 --> 1418.04] Is in an ethernet packet so like a raw data ethernet packet so it can only be sent from inside the network or from an isp +[1418.52 --> 1421.32] So this scares people because of NSA's level stuff +[1423.32 --> 1426.44] It's on 25 route 24 models of different routers +[1426.44 --> 1433.08] It has been found on so far ranging from I believe like linksys and cisco so both levels there and +[1433.08 --> 1443.96] Netgear different routers, but then this is one guy so I fully expect it could be more than that because the problem is actually based around a piece of firmware that they all share +[1446.20 --> 1447.16] Yeah, it gives it +[1447.72 --> 1451.08] It gives them root shell access for people that knows what that really means +[1451.32 --> 1455.40] So this is kind of scary just because everything in this form is scary right now +[1456.12 --> 1459.64] Because of like what the NSA was doing. What were they up to last week right heart bleed? +[1459.64 --> 1464.04] So it's just like every single week. It's just like one more terrible thing +[1464.84 --> 1470.44] Um, oh, I forgot diamond diamond is also another brand that's having problem with them as well +[1471.56 --> 1473.16] That's actually pretty much it +[1474.60 --> 1480.44] So there you go guys. We don't have a solution for you or anything no because it has to be fixed +[1480.92 --> 1485.96] Unless someone's gonna make their own firmware, but I don't even know if these routers are susceptible to that +[1485.96 --> 1491.40] Um, it's it's it's not gonna be fixed because they obviously don't want to if they just made a cover-up +[1492.04 --> 1494.60] Um, so yeah, I guess I guess we'll see where this goes +[1494.60 --> 1499.48] But all we can really do is just pay attention and hope that it goes away and check to see if your router is on that list +[1500.52 --> 1502.92] So you know if you have to change something does it sound bad? +[1502.92 --> 1504.92] You're a little quiet. Okay +[1504.92 --> 1508.44] People are people are asking for you to be louder. Oh, the mic's in the shot now +[1508.44 --> 1512.04] If you it's it's uh, the source was from Aris technica +[1512.04 --> 1515.88] So if you want to see those routers and other stuff go to the Aris technica article +[1516.20 --> 1519.56] Easter egg dsl router patch merely hides backdoor instead of closing it +[1519.80 --> 1523.96] You'll find that article and then you can find other stuff out see if your router is a problem or not +[1524.44 --> 1527.40] Absolutely fantastic. So speaking of things that are absolutely fantastic +[1528.84 --> 1534.20] Assumptions about the one plus one very few people have actually had their hands on this +[1534.20 --> 1536.20] incredibly +[1537.24 --> 1540.68] Confusingly named phone. I mean what the heck? +[1540.68 --> 1543.88] so the company is one plus +[1544.84 --> 1551.40] And then the phone is called the one and it absolutely baffles me as much as I as I hate to see +[1551.96 --> 1555.96] Needless lawsuits between companies like I just it drives me crazy +[1555.96 --> 1558.28] It baffles me that they can get away with this +[1558.84 --> 1561.96] Did is is HTC's the one or is just one? +[1561.96 --> 1565.88] It's just one. It's the HTC one. Can we stop naming things one? +[1566.52 --> 1571.08] Like they named their entire even company one plus. Yeah, so like +[1572.36 --> 1576.76] And anyway anyway, so specs have been revealed. Can we nickname it the two? +[1577.64 --> 1580.12] No, because I already call my HTC one m8 the two +[1581.08 --> 1583.08] But this is one plus one +[1586.92 --> 1588.92] Breathing intensifies +[1588.92 --> 1591.48] You're freaking me out here. I don't know what to do anyway +[1591.72 --> 1593.64] So it's going to arrive in mid-may right now +[1593.80 --> 1600.20] You actually can't pre-order it in the same way that you could pre-order a normal phone and they're doing a weird invite based system +[1600.20 --> 1604.12] But the full specs are out there. It uses a qualcomm snapdragon 801 +[1604.44 --> 1611.96] It's got four crate 400 cores. They're clocked at 2.5 gigahertz making it the fastest phone on the market +[1611.96 --> 1617.80] It uses an adreno 330 gpu. It's got a 1920 by 1080 screen. It's a five and a half inch screen +[1617.80 --> 1619.48] So this is quite a large phone. Yep +[1619.72 --> 1623.08] Like coming in on phablet territory there. It's got +[1624.12 --> 1626.92] 401 pixels per inch in terms of its pixel density +[1626.92 --> 1633.08] It's got a five megapixel front camera with a 13 megapixel rear camera. It's available in 16 gig or 64 gig +[1633.80 --> 1636.28] configurations they've all got three gigs of RAM and +[1636.28 --> 1644.52] It's $299 for the 16 gig and a mere $349 for a 64 gig phone +[1645.56 --> 1650.76] Very cool. Yeah, that's a big deal because I've been upset about this for a long time +[1651.24 --> 1659.48] How much cheaper flash storage has gotten and yet how we're stuck with the same price points on these phones with the same capacity +[1659.48 --> 1663.80] As like four years ago and like this is fantastic +[1663.80 --> 1667.96] But that price jump of 50 bucks is they're still making money off that +[1668.68 --> 1673.32] Which is like that's still fantastic though. I'm I'm happy to pay that compared to other phones +[1673.32 --> 1676.04] Where it's like you get eight more gigabytes. We'll take a hundred dollars +[1676.28 --> 1678.28] So the phone runs on cyanogen mod +[1678.28 --> 1681.72] It has an anodized faux metal rim and swappable backplate +[1681.72 --> 1687.72] It's going to be manufactured in the same factory as oppo phones it packs triple noise cancelling microphones for +[1688.28 --> 1694.20] allegedly superb call quality and pack stereo speakers similar to htc's one series +[1694.68 --> 1699.24] However, one extra thing is the the back is supposed to be removable and you're supposed to be able to +[1699.80 --> 1703.56] Customize your back similarly to the the moto x customize your own x +[1704.36 --> 1709.96] Style thing where you can get like wooden styled ones and all these other stuff ones as well. That's cool. Yeah, and then this is +[1709.96 --> 1713.40] This is this is this is a marketing disaster in my mind +[1713.40 --> 1718.04] So they're running a they're running a never settle campaign +[1718.68 --> 1720.04] called talking about +[1720.04 --> 1725.00] Trademarks smash your phone. I know right like amd does that man +[1725.72 --> 1732.60] Smash your phone okay, so what they're saying is you can buy the one plus one for a dollar +[1733.24 --> 1738.92] By applying to be one of the first to own it, so you'll also be one of the first to have it. Okay, so you apply +[1738.92 --> 1743.24] You stand out so they're going to choose a hundred applicants to be the smashers +[1743.64 --> 1748.60] Smash and share share a video of your smash on youtube and a one plus one will be yours +[1748.60 --> 1755.24] You will get a 16 gig silk white and three invites for other people to purchase the phone something +[1755.24 --> 1760.04] That's actually a pretty hot item right now people people want to buy these phones now +[1760.12 --> 1764.20] One sort of challenge here, and I okay. I see they don't have their uh +[1764.20 --> 1769.40] There we go. There's a list of the qualifying phones which I can't find right now +[1769.40 --> 1773.96] I think if you click on I'll smash my right there. Ah, there we go. Yeah, there you go +[1773.96 --> 1774.28] There you go +[1774.28 --> 1776.76] So there's a list of the qualifying smashable phones +[1777.24 --> 1782.28] So few problems here problem number one is that the vast majority of those smashable phones +[1782.68 --> 1786.12] Can probably be traded in for anywhere from two to three hundred dollars +[1786.12 --> 1791.56] So you could do the environmentally and just generally +[1792.20 --> 1799.16] Responsible thing and trade in your phone and then just buy one number two actually is is a +[1799.80 --> 1805.16] Sort of part of that last thing. I just said is the environmental impact of smashing phones +[1805.48 --> 1809.96] I mean some of the chemicals that that are in phone screens phone batteries +[1809.96 --> 1816.76] Are things that should really be disposed of safely? Not just if you're gonna do this like at the very least +[1817.32 --> 1821.72] Go remove the back remove the battery put the backpack on so no one can tell and then smash it +[1822.36 --> 1824.92] On the other hand, you know, iphone 5 is on the list +[1825.08 --> 1829.40] So it's not like you can remove the battery from that like this. This is like really brutal. Yeah +[1830.12 --> 1833.32] So that to me just smacks of irresponsibility +[1833.32 --> 1838.44] And then on top of that we've had this issue a number of times where +[1839.24 --> 1846.20] We announce a contest and people just don't listen completely don't people can't listen for 20 seconds +[1847.56 --> 1848.68] like +[1848.92 --> 1850.04] At all +[1850.04 --> 1853.80] For example the HTC 1 m8 giveaway. We've got two phones +[1853.80 --> 1858.52] I am announcing the winners during this show by the way the HTC 1 m8 giveaway that we did +[1859.16 --> 1860.60] I said +[1860.60 --> 1863.56] Click the link in the video description +[1864.92 --> 1866.68] There are instructions there +[1866.68 --> 1871.88] The number of people who posted their favorite thing about the 1 m8 under the video +[1872.44 --> 1878.68] Was like in the hundreds and I'm like you guys you didn't you didn't listen you're not entered in the giveaway +[1879.16 --> 1883.24] And I'm sorry. I mean it's great that you posted that it actually generated a lot of great discussion +[1883.56 --> 1886.36] And maybe some people double posted. I know some people did +[1886.36 --> 1890.04] But guys you're not in the giveaway. You got to pay attention +[1890.68 --> 1892.12] So here we go +[1892.68 --> 1899.48] Example of not paying attention being a big problem ahead of the contest people are already smashing their phones +[1899.48 --> 1901.48] This is an article on Android Authority +[1902.20 --> 1907.40] Where they complain about some of the same things that I really didn't like about this whole contest +[1907.56 --> 1910.84] So this was this was an Android authorities +[1910.84 --> 1917.40] article where apparently one of these guys here didn't even fully understand what product was being given away +[1917.72 --> 1920.04] And thought that it was actually an HTC 1 +[1923.48 --> 1926.28] So here this guy I don't know if this was the one or not +[1926.28 --> 1934.44] But this is painful to watch because unless one plus decides to do some some PR you know +[1935.80 --> 1936.92] fixing here and +[1937.56 --> 1943.16] Give phones to the people who already smashed them before they knew they were entered this guy just wrecked a +[1944.04 --> 1946.04] perfectly good iPhone and +[1948.12 --> 1952.20] It's dead now and he's not getting a one plus one +[1952.20 --> 1958.20] So wow yeah, no no, okay. Yeah, not recoverable. No +[1959.32 --> 1961.16] No, this will not be being used anymore +[1961.80 --> 1966.60] At first I was like, uh, it's not that hard to replace iPhone screens in the back. It's probably nope +[1967.72 --> 1970.60] Snap a nap kind of brutal. I was looking at this earlier +[1971.48 --> 1975.48] And I wouldn't be surprised if a massive amount of the entrance are Z10s +[1976.20 --> 1982.20] You can get those a lot cheaper than the rest of the phones and because you don't have to you don't have to smash your phone first +[1982.60 --> 1984.60] Yeah, making sure people got that part +[1985.56 --> 1989.80] People entering could say that they have one and then go out and buy one and smash it if they get selected +[1990.92 --> 1995.88] Not that that's a good thing. Yeah, but still I fully suspect a lot of people are going to do that though +[1995.88 --> 2000.84] We still don't want people to do that. Okay, that's also not the point at all of what they're trying to do +[2001.24 --> 2003.64] So their whole PR thing is also not going to work +[2004.28 --> 2007.96] Because it's just a whole bunch of people going. Oh, well, I don't have to smash my phone +[2007.96 --> 2014.52] I can retire it to my mom or do whatever and get someone else's or it's going to be a lot of phones that don't work +[2015.40 --> 2018.92] Right already and then they're going to smash them and throw them away. I don't know +[2018.92 --> 2023.00] So those should still be disposed of environment in an environmentally friendly manner +[2023.40 --> 2025.88] All right. So this was posted by Jupp Petit +[2026.60 --> 2028.60] whatever that guy +[2028.60 --> 2034.60] Intel is allegedly working on a new Thunderbolt controller chip to drive two +[2035.32 --> 2037.88] 4k displays at the same time +[2038.36 --> 2041.64] So it will use PCI Express Gen 3 +[2042.04 --> 2048.12] Which means that hopefully by the time this rolls out AMD and Nvidia will be like +[2048.44 --> 2052.12] comfortable enough with the level of performance that Thunderbolt is delivering to give us +[2052.68 --> 2060.20] drivers to enable external GPUs because you can already hook up a graphics card on a PCI express to Thunderbolt bridge +[2060.76 --> 2065.56] That should work. It's AMD and Nvidia not providing a driver that is causing it to not work +[2065.56 --> 2069.08] And I don't know the reasons they're not providing a driver. There could be very good reasons +[2069.32 --> 2074.12] But hopefully when this happens, we'll get that what we'll definitely get is +[2074.52 --> 2081.80] 40 gigabit per second bandwidth and enough to like I said to drive two 4k displays off of a single cable +[2081.80 --> 2083.64] I mean, that's one of the reasons +[2083.64 --> 2088.28] Probably why Apple has six Thunderbolt 2 connectors on the Mac Pro +[2088.76 --> 2092.36] Because it's not uncommon for a creative professional to have two +[2093.00 --> 2097.16] Usually two and often three or even more displays connected +[2097.40 --> 2102.68] So even though we joke about the Mac Pro and we go, oh, that's all the external expansion it has +[2102.68 --> 2108.76] And you and there's that there's that awesome picture of of the then and now with the old Mac Pro in the tower +[2108.76 --> 2114.44] And the new Mac Pro with all the like with like the CD drive like connected externally and all the crap piled around it +[2114.60 --> 2115.72] We joke about that +[2115.72 --> 2120.84] But a big part of the reason is actually well, you just need to be able to drive displays off the thing +[2121.56 --> 2125.32] So right now you can't do a single 4k display yet +[2126.04 --> 2128.52] Off of a Thunderbolt connector. All right, you can sorry +[2128.52 --> 2135.48] You can do only a single 4k display off of a Thunderbolt connector and with 4k coming down in price so quickly and so dramatically +[2137.24 --> 2140.20] Running multiple 4k displays. It's gonna be a thing really soon +[2140.20 --> 2144.92] One of the coolest things too is its ability to drive up to 100 watts of power. I know +[2145.48 --> 2150.36] That's solid. So get this. I mean again, like the notebooks of the future, right? +[2150.36 --> 2154.76] Where you take I mean this has Thunderbolt like not Thunderbolt +[2155.48 --> 2158.44] 40 gigabit per second charges off of the thing +[2158.44 --> 2165.96] So the way this is gonna work guys is you're gonna plug into your your Thunderbolt enabled monitor +[2166.44 --> 2172.36] That also has a Thunderbolt, you know external GPU slot that also has a Thunderbolt +[2172.60 --> 2176.92] Everything else you're gonna need you're gonna plug your laptop one cable +[2177.56 --> 2182.60] Your laptop will be charging it will be running it will be outputting to the display +[2183.64 --> 2185.00] and like +[2185.00 --> 2186.76] All your other peripherals +[2186.76 --> 2187.80] Mind blown +[2187.80 --> 2193.48] They need to start calling these things really cool names like alpine rage out the chip +[2194.12 --> 2194.76] I +[2194.76 --> 2201.56] Actually had a call with someone from intel today and I found out how intel does their code names really? Yeah +[2202.28 --> 2204.28] That's actually really cool. Yeah, so +[2204.28 --> 2208.92] Um, sometimes and like there's no there's no hard and fast way, but he gave me two scenarios +[2209.24 --> 2212.60] So sometimes they the the project lead +[2212.92 --> 2219.16] Whoever owns the project literally picks from a list of code names and goes that one seems pretty neat and assigns it +[2219.80 --> 2221.64] Do you know how devil's canyon was done? +[2222.20 --> 2228.04] No, there's a group within intel that puts on I believe it's land fest is the events that they work on +[2228.04 --> 2232.12] And the way that the whole land fest project works I had no idea and this is really cool +[2232.36 --> 2235.00] Is that intel employees who are passionate about gaming? +[2235.48 --> 2237.00] Donate their time +[2237.00 --> 2239.00] Really and then intel +[2239.00 --> 2245.96] Pays but not the employees they pay to a charity of the choice of the employees donating their time to the project +[2246.68 --> 2250.36] So intel is ultimately still paying for all the land fest stuff +[2250.36 --> 2255.32] But it's the employees who are truly passionate about it driving it and then intel is +[2256.04 --> 2258.04] Turning that into a charitable donation +[2258.04 --> 2259.08] So I thought that was really anyway +[2259.08 --> 2259.88] That is really cool +[2259.88 --> 2265.08] So the way that devil's canyon the alleged rumored upcoming intel +[2266.12 --> 2270.36] CPU refresh was named was by polling those guys +[2271.96 --> 2272.60] That's kind of cool +[2272.60 --> 2278.28] So they gave them a bunch of options they were like what do you think is like the coolest one for an enthusiast grade product? +[2278.52 --> 2280.60] And they're like overwhelmingly devil's canyon +[2280.60 --> 2281.48] Devil's canyon +[2281.48 --> 2282.52] And I was like oh that's cool +[2282.52 --> 2283.40] That sounds badass +[2283.40 --> 2283.64] Yeah +[2283.64 --> 2284.76] So like that's cool +[2284.76 --> 2285.72] I think that's fantastic +[2285.72 --> 2288.92] It's like alpine ridge which sounds like a body wash +[2289.96 --> 2293.72] Or like maybe a sports refresher energy drink +[2293.72 --> 2295.56] Yeah, yeah, it could be a drink +[2295.56 --> 2298.44] It could be like um, it could be like ski goggles +[2299.00 --> 2299.32] Yeah +[2299.32 --> 2301.32] Like I could see it being a piece of apparel +[2301.32 --> 2302.20] Definitely +[2302.20 --> 2303.56] But why not like Thor? +[2304.12 --> 2304.84] Thor? +[2304.84 --> 2307.24] Well, I think there's issues there with Marvel +[2308.28 --> 2309.88] But it's a Greek god +[2309.88 --> 2310.76] That's true +[2312.60 --> 2313.64] You shouldn't be able to +[2313.64 --> 2315.40] You're probably not wrong +[2315.40 --> 2315.64] Yeah +[2315.64 --> 2318.04] But that's stupid that you're probably not wrong +[2318.04 --> 2318.44] Yeah +[2318.44 --> 2319.24] I don't like that +[2319.80 --> 2321.08] I mean they wouldn't like it +[2321.64 --> 2323.00] No, I'm sure not +[2323.00 --> 2325.80] Isn't it like Sony owns the rights to mutant or something? +[2325.80 --> 2326.68] Oh, I don't +[2326.68 --> 2328.12] I don't remember what it is +[2328.12 --> 2330.12] There's like some super common word +[2330.12 --> 2332.84] And it's part of the reason why Spider-Man can't be whatever +[2332.84 --> 2337.80] So one issue here is that the powered Thunderbolt 3, I guess whatever we're gonna call it +[2337.80 --> 2343.40] The 40 gigabit per second Thunderbolt connector would actually have to be a different connector +[2343.40 --> 2344.04] Unfortunately +[2344.04 --> 2344.68] Yeah +[2344.68 --> 2347.40] But there'll probably be some kind of an adapter system +[2347.40 --> 2348.84] I mean the thing about PCI Express +[2348.84 --> 2350.60] Which is what Thunderbolt is based on +[2350.60 --> 2353.56] Is that it is forwards and backwards compatible +[2353.56 --> 2355.24] So as long as you had a physical adapter +[2355.24 --> 2357.56] Your older Thunderbolt gear should still be okay +[2357.56 --> 2361.72] Something that will be good news to folks who have heavily invested in Thunderbolt +[2362.52 --> 2363.08] Because a lot of stuff's not cheap +[2363.08 --> 2363.64] To whom I would say +[2363.64 --> 2364.12] Because a lot of stuff's not cheap +[2364.12 --> 2364.68] Why? +[2367.80 --> 2371.40] I still don't quite understand why people buy Thunderbolt gear +[2371.40 --> 2372.68] It's so much more expensive +[2372.68 --> 2373.32] I know +[2374.04 --> 2375.72] But you're saying that's why they buy it? +[2375.72 --> 2376.04] No +[2376.04 --> 2377.88] I'm like agreeing with you +[2377.88 --> 2379.32] Being like yeah I don't know I don't get it +[2379.32 --> 2381.08] We don't use anything as Thunderbolt +[2381.08 --> 2383.32] We actually do own one Thunderbolt piece of gear +[2383.32 --> 2383.96] What thing? +[2383.96 --> 2384.92] We didn't pay for it though +[2384.92 --> 2385.32] Oh +[2385.32 --> 2388.84] Um we have an external drive from Western Digital +[2388.84 --> 2389.32] Oh yeah +[2389.32 --> 2391.32] That's like a dual drive drive +[2391.96 --> 2393.88] And uh it's kind of cool actually +[2393.88 --> 2394.04] Yeah +[2394.60 --> 2395.56] But we didn't pay for that +[2396.20 --> 2397.56] That's true we did not +[2397.56 --> 2398.92] I don't know we own two pieces +[2398.92 --> 2400.04] We have a hard drive dock +[2401.00 --> 2401.96] Also we didn't pay for +[2402.76 --> 2403.00] Okay +[2404.12 --> 2405.40] I'll let you handle this one +[2405.40 --> 2407.00] This one's really short but +[2407.00 --> 2410.92] Has Virtuix managed to make themselves relevant again? +[2411.56 --> 2412.52] Uh no +[2412.52 --> 2413.32] Okay +[2413.32 --> 2415.24] This isn't going to consumers +[2415.24 --> 2416.04] At least right away +[2416.92 --> 2419.00] So that's why it's like what +[2419.00 --> 2420.60] Anyways there's a +[2420.60 --> 2422.52] There's a modify +[2422.52 --> 2424.92] Modification kit thing for the Virtuix Omni +[2424.92 --> 2426.52] Right now it's one package +[2426.52 --> 2428.68] Hopefully later it'll be a kit that consumers can buy +[2428.68 --> 2429.80] But right now it's kind of +[2429.80 --> 2431.16] To upgrade existing Omnis +[2431.16 --> 2433.64] Yes but it's right now it's just for +[2433.64 --> 2435.64] It's a design project +[2436.36 --> 2437.56] With the universe +[2437.56 --> 2439.40] With Rice University in Texas +[2439.40 --> 2442.76] It's R&D for possibly military training applications +[2442.76 --> 2444.76] It's not a consumer level thing +[2445.32 --> 2447.96] But I fully expect people to scream for it +[2447.96 --> 2450.44] So it'll probably become a consumer level thing at some time +[2450.44 --> 2451.80] They said they may offer it +[2451.80 --> 2454.20] But they're not dedicated to anything right now +[2454.20 --> 2457.64] And like Linus said it's going to be an upgrade kit to the existing Omni +[2457.64 --> 2461.00] So if you already bought one you don't have to worry about buying an entirely new kit +[2461.00 --> 2462.44] Which is going to cost way more money +[2462.44 --> 2465.56] You just buy an upgrade kit which could possibly be even more +[2465.56 --> 2466.92] Looking at the size of the thing +[2466.92 --> 2468.76] Which we have only the one picture of +[2468.76 --> 2469.88] So you can show that +[2469.88 --> 2470.76] Oops sorry +[2470.76 --> 2472.44] Just poked the crap out of your screen sorry +[2472.44 --> 2475.16] So you can see it's +[2475.16 --> 2479.16] It actually looks a lot more like the ghetto Omnis that people have been making +[2480.04 --> 2483.64] Having the four post system with the supports coming in +[2483.64 --> 2488.84] So the idea with this is that it can go up and down with you but then still provide support +[2489.40 --> 2489.72] Right +[2489.72 --> 2492.68] It's a pretty interesting project but I don't expect it to be cheap +[2492.68 --> 2497.96] And I think that's part of the reason why it's more of a military training application idea +[2497.96 --> 2503.08] And not necessarily a consumer idea is even as an upgrade kit I expect this to be really expensive +[2503.48 --> 2508.28] So current level Omnis you can run around and you can jump +[2508.28 --> 2508.44] Yeah +[2508.44 --> 2510.52] Can you imagine jumping on that thing though? +[2511.32 --> 2511.96] That'd be tough +[2511.96 --> 2513.40] I was actually just going to bring this up +[2513.40 --> 2514.20] Okay go ahead +[2514.20 --> 2516.12] Currently you can run around and you can +[2516.76 --> 2519.16] I should have done quote unquote jump because that makes more sense +[2519.64 --> 2520.76] And now you'll be able to crouch +[2520.76 --> 2526.84] Part of the problem with them claiming jumping is one of the abilities is I fully expect if you did that all the time +[2527.32 --> 2529.64] You would end up breaking things or yourself +[2530.20 --> 2534.60] Because they have essentially if you've ever been longboarding or if you have friends that have been longboarding +[2534.60 --> 2540.60] If they have those longboarding gloves with the like slick plasticky kind of pad things on their gloves +[2540.84 --> 2543.88] You're essentially wearing those on your feet on a plastic surface +[2544.36 --> 2547.00] So you slide a lot that's the whole point +[2547.00 --> 2549.56] So it feels like you're running as you're putting your feet on plastic +[2549.56 --> 2551.16] It's because it slides down +[2551.16 --> 2554.68] So jumping on that type of a surface if you're actually trying to get a lot of air +[2555.88 --> 2557.08] Yeah, it's going to be kind of scary +[2557.08 --> 2558.84] So there's not a ton to say in there +[2559.64 --> 2563.88] If you do want it, I'm sure contacting virtuix would help it come to the consumer end +[2564.44 --> 2566.12] But just remember it's going to be really expensive +[2566.12 --> 2569.96] How would you feel as an omni kickstarter backer at this point? +[2569.96 --> 2576.44] That thing has been so up and down with the recent thing out of um out of oculus being +[2576.44 --> 2581.08] Yeah, we're focused on a sitting down experience not on a moving around experience, so +[2582.84 --> 2583.56] There's there's +[2583.56 --> 2585.56] I know someone who backed it +[2585.56 --> 2585.96] Do you? +[2585.96 --> 2586.20] Yeah +[2586.20 --> 2588.04] And like bought the whole thing? +[2588.04 --> 2588.60] Yeah +[2588.60 --> 2590.12] Like a full bag like the $400? +[2590.12 --> 2590.60] Yeah +[2590.60 --> 2590.92] Okay +[2590.92 --> 2591.64] Okay +[2591.64 --> 2592.92] I don't +[2592.92 --> 2593.32] Um +[2593.32 --> 2595.08] I don't know +[2595.08 --> 2595.96] Um +[2595.96 --> 2599.08] I would be paying a lot of attention to the the small groups +[2599.08 --> 2601.80] Very small groups right now that are working on a +[2602.36 --> 2606.28] I can't even call it ghetto solution because it has to be pretty advanced for this to work properly +[2606.28 --> 2607.32] Um +[2609.48 --> 2609.80] But +[2610.68 --> 2614.60] Like the the the the the moving of the camera +[2615.32 --> 2621.64] They're trying to make that a reality but having it based off your physical movement is going to impede you a lot for one +[2621.64 --> 2622.04] Right +[2622.04 --> 2627.48] And there's gonna be if unless it's like hardcore strapped in which is going to be highly uncomfortable +[2627.96 --> 2632.60] There's going to be mechanical lag because you're going to turn and then it's going to have to pick up with you +[2632.60 --> 2633.16] Right +[2633.16 --> 2637.16] And then there's software problems with it shifting too much and then +[2637.72 --> 2642.84] Motorized versions that detect your movement based off of the connect are going to have problems again +[2643.56 --> 2648.04] And there's yeah, I don't know they're they're trying to make something work +[2648.60 --> 2654.20] But none of the solutions are very feasible yet and they're all aftermarket ones omni hasn't said anything +[2655.24 --> 2658.04] Right about it actually happening you mean oculus +[2659.16 --> 2663.08] No, or omni omni. Oh, okay. Sorry. Yeah, no worries virtuix I should have said +[2663.72 --> 2665.72] Yeah +[2666.36 --> 2667.72] Huh +[2667.72 --> 2673.40] All right, it's an interesting situation, but I just people do have to realize that that quote is very real +[2673.72 --> 2680.28] Um, they're they're focusing the seated forward facing this box of field of view from the camera position +[2680.28 --> 2681.88] I mean cool stuff's gonna happen in the future +[2682.36 --> 2687.56] But for now they want to focus on one thing at a time and I totally get that and I respect that yeah, yeah +[2688.12 --> 2692.04] Um speaking of really quickly, but yeah, I respect that wow what's going on? +[2692.04 --> 2692.12] Yeah +[2692.12 --> 2694.12] It's okay +[2694.20 --> 2699.96] Anyway, speaking of things that are are good. I guess uh the facebook oculus acquisition +[2699.96 --> 2703.48] Is a done deal now? It's been approved by the feds +[2703.80 --> 2704.52] So there you go +[2704.52 --> 2711.56] I guess that's all we really have to say that the last thing is and I apologize guys. This is another oculus +[2711.56 --> 2718.12] Um, this is another oculus story, but it's one that leads into a very interesting conversation +[2719.08 --> 2724.12] Oculus facebook sees movies as the next big thing for oculus rift +[2724.12 --> 2728.28] So this is an article from tech radar and I +[2729.24 --> 2734.12] Would like for us to have a bit of a conversation here. We haven't we haven't primed this one at all +[2734.76 --> 2740.52] Um other than just to have sort of notes on it, which I just closed so now I've got nothing but +[2741.88 --> 2746.68] You know what here? Why don't you do the facts and then we'll have the discussion this one. Yeah, so +[2747.40 --> 2750.12] Uh, what do you mean by facts? I mean the things in there +[2750.76 --> 2753.96] Okay, so according to cory, I can't say your last name +[2754.52 --> 2761.24] Of mobile engineering virtual reality is destined to go well beyond gaming and movies seem to be the obvious next conquest +[2761.24 --> 2763.80] People have been talking about going to imax +[2763.88 --> 2771.00] Essentially and wearing an oculus and how that experience could be with the the awesome audio and everything else that there is in an imax +[2771.56 --> 2778.12] Um another quote by the same. I can't pronounce your last name. I'm very sorry facebook's vp of mobile engineering +[2778.12 --> 2782.52] Uh, I am completely excited about the intersection of hollywood and virtual reality +[2783.32 --> 2786.92] I think we're going to I think we're going to see the next uh +[2788.60 --> 2792.84] I think what we're going to see i've mixed one word there over the next coming year is going to be truly spectacular +[2793.80 --> 2797.48] So essentially there's just a lot of we're interesting one of the problems is going to be +[2798.04 --> 2800.04] You're not going to be able to shoot content +[2800.04 --> 2807.24] That's actually properly designed for a rift by using the same kind of camera setup that we use and what a lot of +[2807.72 --> 2813.00] Much better camera setup, but what a lot of movies would use which is like a prime camera and maybe one or two other shots +[2813.64 --> 2815.08] And then that's it you're going to need +[2815.72 --> 2819.08] An insane amount of cameras because you're gonna have to be able to capture everything +[2819.32 --> 2823.80] And part of your problem is going to be like people and stuff which would normally be behind the scenes +[2823.80 --> 2826.28] Well, if someone goes like this what's going to happen? +[2827.00 --> 2834.04] It's yeah, so in my mind the only way for a vr film to work properly +[2834.52 --> 2839.24] would be autonomous an autonomous array of relatively inexpensive +[2839.88 --> 2840.76] um +[2840.76 --> 2842.76] Omni-directional cameras +[2842.76 --> 2846.20] So if and you won't be able unless you can make drones +[2846.84 --> 2850.60] Much much quieter than they are and much much more advanced than they are +[2851.16 --> 2854.60] You're not going to be able to record sound with any I guess okay +[2854.60 --> 2859.48] You could mic up everyone and everything but still that wouldn't help for ambient sound collection +[2859.80 --> 2864.92] So you're going to need an autonomous array of drones and then you're going to need to have a crazy +[2865.48 --> 2873.32] Sophisticated way of having each of them overlap each other's images enough to cancel each other out +[2873.32 --> 2880.04] So that you can't see the drones or whether it's drones or whether it's something else the way that the camera arrays will have to work +[2880.04 --> 2885.48] Will have to be so that for every camera that's positioned so so let's let's say you guys are looking at a top-down view +[2885.64 --> 2887.64] So for every camera positioned here +[2888.04 --> 2891.80] There's going to have to be one here and here so that we can see +[2892.12 --> 2895.72] Anything that would have been blocked by this one from this camera position here +[2895.88 --> 2903.24] Because someone has to be able for to for me for me for vr to be a way for me to compellingly be told a story +[2903.88 --> 2904.28] Um +[2904.28 --> 2911.64] It's going to have to work the same way that vr would work in a game where I can walk around in the environment +[2911.88 --> 2919.08] Which leads us to the other reasonable future scenario, which is maybe we just do away with +[2919.96 --> 2922.36] sets and actors and +[2923.24 --> 2925.24] The whole thing goes full CGI +[2925.24 --> 2930.36] Um, I mean you're still gonna have that you're still gonna have that +[2931.00 --> 2935.80] Not it's not quite real. It's it's still a little bit creepy effect +[2936.60 --> 2939.96] But not if it's not if it's designed to not look real +[2940.84 --> 2946.76] Okay, if it's not designed to look real then I guess there's that but that still doesn't address any kind of um +[2948.36 --> 2950.36] Any kind of +[2950.36 --> 2955.64] Footage of anything that's like actually real like I don't know I don't know if I'm explaining this properly +[2955.64 --> 2956.76] I think +[2956.76 --> 2959.32] This could be the first the first +[2960.04 --> 2962.68] Technological thing that happens that really makes me feel old +[2963.40 --> 2967.56] because I get the feeling much like anyone who +[2968.52 --> 2974.04] You know kind of looked at mp3s or still looks at mp3s today and goes +[2974.36 --> 2976.68] Well, the radio was good enough when I was a kid +[2976.68 --> 2978.60] So the radio is good enough now +[2978.60 --> 2982.12] And you know what the radio is still great, but I think for me +[2982.84 --> 2987.16] This is not going to be a compelling way to watch a movie for an hour and a half +[2987.16 --> 2989.56] I don't think it will be now one of the problems you see when you +[2990.52 --> 2996.04] Come out with a new medium like let's look at video games when video games first started being a really big deal +[2996.04 --> 3001.32] What a lot of people started trying to do was and now I'm not saying pong I'm saying +[3002.20 --> 3006.36] Stuff beyond that they tried making movies that were interactive +[3006.36 --> 3010.60] Do you remember that people were trying to merge movies and video games and they try to make these like stupid +[3011.24 --> 3014.92] Playable on your dvd player video games because they were like movies and games +[3015.56 --> 3015.88] Yeah +[3015.88 --> 3018.68] The second you try to merge things like this +[3019.24 --> 3024.44] There's gonna be the people that kind of half-ass it at the beginning and it's not going to work very well +[3024.68 --> 3030.04] What people are going to have to actually do is create an experience focused around the idea that it's +[3030.68 --> 3032.28] a movie for virtual reality +[3033.72 --> 3038.28] And it's going to have to be filmed completely differently is going to have to be written completely differently all the sets are going to +[3038.28 --> 3039.48] Have to be made completely differently +[3040.44 --> 3044.28] Everything is going to have to be totally different. I think it's going to be a long time until we get there +[3044.28 --> 3047.88] Even if we start trying now, I think everything's going to be kind of crap at the beginning +[3048.44 --> 3048.92] Um +[3048.92 --> 3052.84] I mean, there's a lot of different ways vr could work for a movie. I mean like +[3052.84 --> 3053.48] um +[3054.28 --> 3055.80] I guess you wouldn't even need to be +[3056.52 --> 3062.12] VR in order for like as camera technology changes if you could watch the movie flat +[3062.68 --> 3067.08] Or if you could watch the movie from the perspective of any one character that you pick +[3067.48 --> 3072.60] Like if you could cycle through or whatever else like there's a lot of different things that can happen here +[3072.60 --> 3075.72] I just don't know which one of them which ones of them will be enjoyable +[3075.96 --> 3080.04] That's something that's interested me as well as if you can be like I am the lead character +[3080.04 --> 3084.52] Or I am the supporting role and you want to see it from their angle. I want to be sauron +[3085.00 --> 3087.48] Yeah, like something like that, but then what's your movie going to be? +[3088.04 --> 3089.96] Yeah, that's another part of the problem when I brought in +[3090.52 --> 3094.76] Sets and scripts and all that kind of stuff because he's not actually in that much of the movie +[3095.00 --> 3097.08] So how do you make that a movie right? +[3097.08 --> 3099.32] Well, there'd be much more filming and then part of the problem is +[3099.88 --> 3102.92] You're bringing in way more angles and you're bringing in way more possibilities +[3102.92 --> 3108.36] So that is going to raise cost by a lot if you have to produce an entire movie from different people's perspectives +[3108.36 --> 3110.04] But the same feature length +[3111.80 --> 3113.96] That's a lot of editing and production +[3113.96 --> 3116.84] It sounds like a crazy kickstarter project that just might work +[3118.12 --> 3121.00] Yeah, that's what it sounds like to me. It sounds like someone's gonna try +[3121.40 --> 3126.52] Someone will try. Oh, definitely like this will happen and I fully expect I think it's all I'm all I'm trying to say is +[3126.52 --> 3127.72] I think there's gonna be growing pain +[3128.20 --> 3131.24] I don't I don't think it's not gonna grow. I don't think it's not gonna happen. I'm pretty sure +[3131.24 --> 3134.36] Facebook has made it extremely clear that they want this to happen +[3137.80 --> 3138.84] Yeah, I don't know +[3140.28 --> 3144.20] It's gonna be interesting. I have a feeling I'm gonna be a geezer about it though +[3144.60 --> 3149.96] Because it just doesn't sound that appealing to me gaming VR. Yeah heads up are like definitely two thumbs up +[3150.52 --> 3155.16] Um augmented reality VR. Oh, yeah, I'm so into that. Yeah, for sure +[3155.16 --> 3162.12] That's I'm actually more excited about that than sitting down in VR me too, but I don't see that as being very good for a while +[3162.28 --> 3166.52] Oh, it's gonna be a long time. Yeah, that's that's the holy grail. That's why I'm focusing on me +[3166.52 --> 3168.52] I mean that goes all the way back to our +[3169.08 --> 3173.80] Virtual like flying RC things at each other football field where yeah, yeah +[3174.12 --> 3177.64] That goes all the way back to that's like that is exciting. That's the kind of thing that I would +[3177.64 --> 3181.24] Well, have you seen the the digital trips thing from watchdogs? +[3181.24 --> 3188.04] No, when you go around on I'm trying I'm gonna this is stuff that's been already released +[3188.04 --> 3192.52] So if you're waiting for watchdogs, maybe plug your ears, but this is not I don't think they're trying to hide this +[3192.52 --> 3194.52] This isn't really a spoiler alert or anything like that +[3194.84 --> 3199.72] but digital trips you can walk around and people on the street will just try and sell you like digital trips and +[3200.60 --> 3205.08] You will it like changes how the game plays and like one of them +[3205.08 --> 3209.88] I can't remember what it's actually called, but you turn into this giant spider tank, right? +[3209.88 --> 3213.00] So you're a tank, but it has like spider legs and stuff sure +[3213.00 --> 3215.96] And you just run around and jump around the city and just blow crap up +[3216.44 --> 3220.76] And you have like a cannon and it's just ridiculous, but you're it's a digital trip and I +[3221.32 --> 3225.56] Don't remember exactly if there's like side effects or crazy things that can happen or anything like that +[3225.56 --> 3229.64] I haven't looked way too far into it, but like that kind of stuff would be really cool +[3229.64 --> 3234.12] Like altering that like alternate reality with the football field and stuff +[3234.12 --> 3238.60] Yeah, take that idea or you're just like sitting on the bleachers and it's a normal day +[3239.16 --> 3244.20] But then all of a sudden there's spider tanks and helicopters and stuff and you're fighting your buddy and like +[3244.52 --> 3246.20] Yeah, it's gonna be awesome. That would be really cool +[3248.04 --> 3248.76] All right, so +[3249.72 --> 3254.68] That's that's it for virtual reality stuff for today. Don't worry guys. Yep. Um, amazon +[3254.68 --> 3262.84] Amazon has secured a deal to provide hbo premium content to amazon prime members +[3263.96 --> 3268.04] You will be able to access hbo shows not all of them +[3268.68 --> 3272.36] HBO is going to be sticking to like a multi-year +[3273.08 --> 3277.48] delay between when they release content and then when +[3278.12 --> 3284.52] Stuff's available sort of elsewhere, but what's amazing about this whole thing is this is this is hbo's first movie +[3284.68 --> 3288.04] It's a huge deal to move towards any kind of purely digital +[3288.68 --> 3290.44] distribution network +[3290.44 --> 3294.76] So hbo content has already been available as on demand +[3295.16 --> 3299.48] But this is the first time you're going to be able to stream it in an unlimited fashion +[3299.88 --> 3305.96] Using just your amazon prime membership now amazon did recently increase the price of amazon prime +[3306.44 --> 3311.16] But as you can already see it looks like that was for good reason +[3311.16 --> 3317.16] And they're looking to add more value to that increased subscription in order to continue to justify it for people so +[3317.64 --> 3321.56] um, but the first question in my mind was oh, are they gonna have game of thrones on it? +[3321.56 --> 3326.84] No, no, no game of thrones, so it's gonna have sopranos the wire deadwood rome six feet under +[3327.48 --> 3331.00] um, so all seasons of some of the some of the older stuff +[3331.24 --> 3334.28] It's gonna have select seasons of newer stuff like true blood +[3334.28 --> 3341.72] It's gonna have some original movies like too big to fail and you don't know jack and some documentaries some comedy specials +[3341.80 --> 3348.04] From Ellen DeGeneres and so folks like that. It's gonna have some of the mini series like a band of brothers +[3348.52 --> 3352.04] And there you go as an amazon prime member. So if you have a kindle +[3352.60 --> 3357.32] TV or whatever that fire tv. Thank you if you have a fire tv then you i'm really off today +[3358.04 --> 3363.16] Then you're gonna be able to stream these to yourself, and I think that's that's great +[3364.04 --> 3371.08] But just plain not enough. Yeah, I uh, I hbo needs to figure it out +[3371.80 --> 3378.84] In my opinion they need to they need to start because what was it like game of thrones was the most downloaded thing through torrents ever +[3378.84 --> 3383.40] Didn't they win that twice or something? I think so and like come on guys +[3383.72 --> 3387.24] Maybe figure it out at some point in time get a website. I'll pay a subscription +[3387.40 --> 3392.36] I don't even have a cable connection, but I'd love to watch your shows. I honestly haven't +[3392.36 --> 3398.68] I think i've watched like the first almost the first season of game of thrones because I watched it at my parents house +[3399.64 --> 3406.04] Like i'd love to see it going through the books, but i i'm kind of holding out because hbo's gotta +[3406.60 --> 3408.60] Revolutionize in some form at some point in time +[3409.32 --> 3410.60] They have to +[3410.60 --> 3413.48] Like come on guys everyone's moving off the tv +[3414.52 --> 3416.52] Maybe they'll get intended at some point +[3417.32 --> 3421.80] And what was their name ario maybe ario will figure out some way oh that would be tough +[3422.76 --> 3425.00] That'd be tough i'm pretty sure they'd lose that fight +[3426.68 --> 3433.64] What's up next um well, I wanted that to lead into uh here we go here uh oh is that is that the article yeah awesome +[3433.64 --> 3439.72] I couldn't see that for so I can't see that for some reason where is that oh it's way down at the bottom there we go +[3440.44 --> 3442.44] Okay, so here we go +[3442.60 --> 3443.96] so +[3443.96 --> 3447.80] Again, it's not good enough and the situation is terrible +[3447.80 --> 3453.40] So this is from slashdot actually there was I had a better article on it before but whatever the point is +[3453.88 --> 3460.20] Hulu apparently worried that too many non-us residents are using cheap vpn services to watch its u.s programming +[3460.60 --> 3465.00] Have started blocking ip address ranges belonging to known vpn services +[3465.48 --> 3470.84] Hulu didn't announce the ban but users of affected vpns are getting this message based on your ip address +[3470.84 --> 3474.04] We noticed you are trying to access hulu through an anonymous proxy tool +[3474.04 --> 3477.80] Hulu is not currently available outside the us if you're in the us +[3477.80 --> 3480.92] You'll need to disable your anonymizer to access videos on hulu +[3480.92 --> 3485.64] So the problem in there now, sorry, there's the link I meant to put in there. Yeah, that's okay +[3485.64 --> 3491.48] So the problem here is that it denies access to hulu from people +[3492.04 --> 3500.92] Who are in the us just because they want to use a vpn to have a slightly more anonymous internet browsing experience, which is okay? +[3501.56 --> 3503.56] Like that's fine +[3503.56 --> 3507.56] The other issue here is that this again, so being to hbo +[3507.72 --> 3510.92] It's not good enough to kind of go like oh, yeah +[3510.92 --> 3514.68] Well, like some of our old stinky content that is still good +[3514.68 --> 3520.60] But quite frankly if you were that interested in watching the sopranos you've probably already seen it. Yeah +[3520.84 --> 3523.88] Um, like some some of our old stuff is like yeah, it's okay +[3524.36 --> 3530.12] We need legitimate ways to access premium content in a timely manner +[3530.12 --> 3532.12] blocking things and +[3532.92 --> 3538.60] Holding on to things is not going to last forever, and I wish we would just hurry up and get over it +[3538.60 --> 3540.04] I can't even remember what it was +[3540.04 --> 3548.04] But I tried to watch a video last night or the night before on some website and it was like you can't watch this because you're in Canada +[3548.36 --> 3552.20] And I was like oh geez and then as I'm going to close the site +[3552.52 --> 3556.92] It has a pop-up which is like can you answer our survey about using our website? +[3556.92 --> 3559.64] I was like yes, I hate everything +[3561.24 --> 3566.68] Like this is so stupid. I can't use your website. It's a pretty big problem. It's uh +[3567.72 --> 3569.72] and I'm so frustrated +[3569.72 --> 3577.40] It's not clear to me what the solution is because I mean you know part of the problem is that advertisers aren't going to want their advertising impressions +[3577.40 --> 3581.32] Wasted on people who can't even benefit from their services +[3581.32 --> 3584.92] Find a monetization platform that works so that ads are different on +[3585.72 --> 3587.32] When it's in it being viewed in a different country +[3587.32 --> 3591.00] So your solution is to create a ginormous, you know +[3591.64 --> 3596.52] Advertising network that gets puts ads everywhere. I don't think anything like that exists +[3599.32 --> 3601.32] At first I thought you were serious +[3601.32 --> 3602.52] I was like what? +[3602.52 --> 3608.60] It's one of those things where to me if the issue is is advertising and licensing then figure it out +[3608.92 --> 3616.44] But what the real issue is is protecting the providers the the existing relationships with providers that are geo specific and +[3616.76 --> 3618.84] Geo specific just has to go +[3619.40 --> 3624.28] It was stupid back when certain game consoles worked in certain regions +[3624.28 --> 3625.56] It's still like that +[3625.56 --> 3631.40] I know and it's stupid now it the whole thing is stupid dvd region locks are stupid +[3631.96 --> 3633.08] Everything is stupid +[3633.32 --> 3641.00] You create the content you get it in front of the eyeballs you collect the advertising revenue if the model needs to change the model needs to change +[3641.24 --> 3643.24] Yeah, um, so +[3644.44 --> 3648.84] It's just frustrating and like i'm i'm honest. I could have vpn to watch that video +[3649.56 --> 3655.16] I could have figured it out, but I was just like no speaking of which speaking of vpns. I actually haven't +[3655.16 --> 3662.12] That the way that I it's funny the way that I did my hulu plus integration not that long ago on a linus tech tips video +[3662.60 --> 3666.04] Was by using hotspot shield our other sponsor +[3666.68 --> 3671.64] To let me access it so I could watch the videos and I haven't actually tried again +[3672.28 --> 3677.16] Since this news came out like hours ago to find out if hotspot shield is one of the ones affected +[3677.80 --> 3682.20] But but anyway when it comes to netflix anyway, or you know +[3682.20 --> 3685.96] At least other video streaming services that aren't specifically blocking vpns +[3686.12 --> 3693.88] I can say with certainty that hotspot shield is the fast easy way to access content that is locked out of your region so hotspot shield +[3694.68 --> 3700.84] Anonymizes you and also provides you with an ip that is based in a completely different location +[3700.84 --> 3704.20] So you they have uk based ones they have us based ones +[3704.20 --> 3709.96] So if you want to go on comedy central.com for example, you can watch whatever videos you want +[3709.96 --> 3714.12] Just boom make sure and you enable hotspot shield you can actually turn it on and off +[3714.76 --> 3717.56] And so you just kind of turn it on whenever you want to use it +[3717.56 --> 3720.92] You turn it off whenever you want to play games and you don't want your ping times offend +[3721.48 --> 3726.60] offended affected by the fact that you're redirecting all of your traffic through a us-based server and +[3727.56 --> 3730.44] There you go guys you can save 20% on their elite service +[3730.44 --> 3734.60] Which is the one that I recommend by the way the free service is ad supported so it exists +[3735.16 --> 3742.68] But it has ads so if you want sort of the cleanest possible web browsing experience save 20% by heading over to bit.ly slash hs +[3742.68 --> 3744.92] Share for 20% off use offer code +[3745.48 --> 3751.40] Linus thank you hotspot shield for sponsoring today's episode of the when show we've also got +[3751.88 --> 3757.88] Barnaclees get out of here that was from barnaclees last week who was weighing in on our g750 jay-z's +[3758.60 --> 3760.60] Isn't that awesome that we have like matching laptops now? +[3760.60 --> 3761.32] What's that guy's name? +[3761.32 --> 3762.20] Wendell +[3762.20 --> 3764.60] Yeah, we'll have a Wendell moment here +[3764.60 --> 3766.60] No, no, the guy's no where he's facing his character +[3766.60 --> 3767.08] Oh, Wilson +[3767.08 --> 3767.40] Yeah +[3767.40 --> 3769.40] Oh, well Wendell from tech syndicate does it too +[3769.40 --> 3769.88] I know +[3769.88 --> 3771.00] He never shows his face now +[3771.00 --> 3772.04] But it's more Wilson +[3772.04 --> 3773.00] Yeah, well so we'll have +[3773.00 --> 3773.80] Can you still hear us? +[3774.84 --> 3776.28] It's alright, it's not great +[3776.28 --> 3779.08] Yeah, the audio is not great so maybe we'll just we'll go with this +[3779.08 --> 3785.40] So the g750 jay-z is the next evolutionary step in the g750 series from asus +[3785.80 --> 3791.80] And what it basically brings to the table is a lot closer to desktop grade performance +[3791.80 --> 3796.44] And a lot closer to desktop pricing than we've ever really seen before +[3796.44 --> 3799.80] Now we had some people question our desktop +[3799.80 --> 3802.12] You remember the yeah, you ran the benchmarks +[3802.12 --> 3805.32] Okay, so we had some people question our desktop when we did our comparison +[3805.32 --> 3809.80] Because what we discovered was that matching this feature for feature spec for spec +[3809.80 --> 3813.56] It was going to cost us about 200 less to build an equivalent desktop +[3813.56 --> 3817.80] In terms of sort of, you know, the similar Intel CPU +[3817.80 --> 3821.40] And a GPU that performs about the same and all that stuff +[3821.40 --> 3823.84] But this one actually performed within what? +[3823.90 --> 3825.96] It was about 70 to 80% of the performance of the desktop +[3825.96 --> 3829.32] I said on the stream though that if we went for just performance on the desktop +[3829.32 --> 3830.24] I could have smoked it +[3830.24 --> 3830.46] Yeah +[3830.46 --> 3831.92] We were going for feature equipment +[3831.92 --> 3833.20] We were going for feature parity +[3833.20 --> 3838.64] So a lot of the things that we included are things that maybe you wouldn't choose +[3838.64 --> 3843.00] But you still have to acknowledge that they're features that are going to matter to some people +[3843.00 --> 3844.80] And they're features that do cost money +[3844.80 --> 3848.80] Like for example, we could have bought the cheapest possible motherboard +[3848.80 --> 3849.94] But we didn't +[3849.94 --> 3853.68] We bought an Asus motherboard because we were looking for quality parity +[3853.68 --> 3855.68] And then we bought one with Thunderbolt +[3855.68 --> 3858.04] Because this laptop has Thunderbolt +[3858.04 --> 3860.08] Which is a feature that some people use +[3860.08 --> 3862.98] So that's all there is to it +[3862.98 --> 3867.24] We threw in, you know, a $20 webcam budget with the desktop +[3867.24 --> 3869.54] Because a lot of people use webcams +[3869.54 --> 3871.40] This notebook includes a webcam +[3871.40 --> 3873.82] So we're going to have to include a webcam to make sure it's fair +[3873.82 --> 3876.76] Because while you guys might not look at that and go +[3876.76 --> 3877.68] Oh, well, it's, you know +[3877.68 --> 3878.74] You might look at that and you go +[3878.74 --> 3880.74] Well, oh, that's not the hardware I would have bought +[3880.74 --> 3882.00] Therefore it's not fair +[3882.00 --> 3885.68] Well, the laptop's available in different configurations +[3885.68 --> 3887.90] This is the one we happen to have +[3887.90 --> 3891.08] So we have to build something that's equivalent to it +[3891.08 --> 3893.56] So that's basically all there is to it +[3893.56 --> 3895.32] It runs extremely quietly at idle +[3895.32 --> 3895.98] Here +[3895.98 --> 3900.00] That's our microphone +[3900.00 --> 3900.90] He put the vent, yeah +[3900.90 --> 3902.26] He put the vent of the laptop +[3902.26 --> 3905.54] Like inside of the fur of our, whatever this is called +[3905.54 --> 3906.32] It's called a dead cat +[3906.32 --> 3907.60] I don't like calling it that +[3907.60 --> 3908.98] I know, it's called a dead cat +[3908.98 --> 3910.28] Anyway +[3910.28 --> 3911.40] So the point is +[3911.40 --> 3914.20] It is extremely quiet when you're not doing anything intensive +[3914.20 --> 3916.92] It runs cool when you're doing crazy intensive stuff +[3916.92 --> 3920.78] And I think, is it fair to say you were blown away by how well it performs? +[3921.60 --> 3921.86] Yeah +[3921.86 --> 3925.20] I, I, I'll be completely honest while doing this ad integration +[3925.20 --> 3926.36] Which might not be the greatest thing +[3926.36 --> 3928.10] But I generally don't like laptops +[3928.10 --> 3928.54] I know +[3928.54 --> 3930.64] But I've used this a couple times now +[3930.64 --> 3931.68] Like when we used it in Boston +[3931.68 --> 3932.98] It would put videos really fast +[3932.98 --> 3934.12] Which is really nice +[3934.12 --> 3936.50] And I used it to play, I don't even remember what +[3936.50 --> 3938.44] Quite a few different games with my buddy Victoria +[3938.44 --> 3940.64] And never had a single problem +[3940.64 --> 3942.98] I think this was actually faster than his desktop +[3942.98 --> 3945.14] You took this on a trip to Victoria? +[3945.22 --> 3945.46] Nope +[3945.46 --> 3947.42] Seriously? +[3953.36 --> 3954.98] It's company property, man +[3954.98 --> 3956.10] You could at least tell me +[3956.10 --> 3957.90] I didn't, I was talking about my laptop +[3957.90 --> 3959.44] No you weren't +[3959.44 --> 3961.54] It doesn't even have a video card in it +[3961.54 --> 3962.70] It does actually +[3962.70 --> 3964.20] So we've managed to make it +[3964.20 --> 3964.82] Seriously? +[3966.44 --> 3968.52] We've managed to make it this far into the integration +[3968.52 --> 3969.42] Without even explaining +[3969.42 --> 3971.64] So it's got a Core i7 4700HQ +[3971.64 --> 3972.70] It's got an 880M +[3972.70 --> 3975.54] Which is actually just about equivalent to a GTX 770 +[3975.54 --> 3977.70] Delivers a great gaming experience +[3977.70 --> 3978.88] It's still portable +[3978.88 --> 3981.36] Even though it's obviously not a Zenbook +[3981.36 --> 3982.94] And there you go guys +[3982.94 --> 3984.72] The Asus G750 Jay-Z +[3984.72 --> 3987.12] Sponsor of today's episode +[3987.12 --> 3988.54] I can't even believe you +[3988.54 --> 3990.28] Jay-Z would have just owned his own +[3990.28 --> 3991.62] To bring it to Victoria +[3991.62 --> 3994.62] Yes, Jay-Z the rapper +[3994.62 --> 3998.56] You know what's the worst part? +[3998.64 --> 4001.36] Is I'm going to have to listen to this joke for another five weeks +[4001.36 --> 4005.40] I'm not going to give up +[4005.40 --> 4008.34] Speaking of jokes that lasted longer than five weeks +[4008.34 --> 4012.12] Google Plus integration on YouTube +[4012.12 --> 4015.80] Google has allegedly +[4015.80 --> 4017.28] Well, no, it's happened +[4017.28 --> 4023.20] Google has cut between 1,000 and 1,200 people +[4023.20 --> 4025.04] Google from the Google Plus project +[4025.04 --> 4028.00] And reassigned them to other divisions +[4028.00 --> 4033.72] With a huge chunk of them going over to the Android side of things +[4033.72 --> 4037.84] So that means that products like Hangouts, for example +[4037.84 --> 4039.10] They're not being cut +[4039.10 --> 4040.60] They're still going to exist +[4040.60 --> 4044.94] They're just going to be less focused on Google Plus +[4044.94 --> 4047.74] And more tightly integrated into Android +[4047.74 --> 4049.24] Or other YouTube +[4049.24 --> 4050.90] Or Google projects +[4050.90 --> 4052.24] Sorry, I got YouTube on the brain +[4052.24 --> 4055.82] So one of the reasons for this +[4055.82 --> 4058.70] Actually, we don't have a clear idea about the reason +[4058.70 --> 4060.66] But one of the reasons for this that I think +[4060.66 --> 4065.42] Is just how much negativity there's been around Google Plus +[4065.42 --> 4067.12] And how it's been forced on users +[4067.12 --> 4069.34] It's one of the few things that Google's really done +[4069.34 --> 4072.14] That has made literally everyone mad +[4072.14 --> 4075.10] Like the entire internet was upset about this +[4075.10 --> 4078.08] Google has always been really, really good at making something +[4078.08 --> 4080.24] And then just having it exist +[4080.24 --> 4081.68] And people find out about it +[4081.68 --> 4083.66] And then people do their own marketing around it +[4083.66 --> 4086.06] They've always been incredibly good at that +[4086.06 --> 4087.50] And that might have worked for Hangouts +[4087.50 --> 4089.38] If it wasn't such a giant piece of crap +[4089.38 --> 4091.12] Yeah, Google Plus is terrible +[4091.12 --> 4091.50] Hangouts is terrible +[4091.50 --> 4092.16] Did I say Hangouts? +[4092.34 --> 4094.20] I'm sorry, okay, no, I'm okay with +[4094.20 --> 4095.12] Part of Hangouts is terrible +[4095.12 --> 4095.84] I'm getting better +[4095.84 --> 4097.38] I'm more okay with Hangouts now +[4097.38 --> 4099.26] I still don't like the SMS integration desktop +[4099.26 --> 4101.78] I still don't like the fact that it doesn't have a proper desktop +[4101.78 --> 4102.74] They need to fix that +[4102.74 --> 4105.34] I can't use it as my main thing until it's on all platforms +[4105.34 --> 4106.48] So, okay, okay +[4106.48 --> 4107.30] So, hold on +[4107.30 --> 4108.10] But Google Plus +[4108.10 --> 4109.82] Sorry, giant steaming pile of garbage +[4109.82 --> 4111.28] I mean, honestly +[4111.28 --> 4116.42] I'm not the best at navigating social media websites +[4116.42 --> 4118.16] I hardly know how to use Facebook +[4118.16 --> 4119.68] The only thing I know how to do +[4119.68 --> 4122.84] Is to reply to people who post on my posts +[4122.84 --> 4124.38] And post on my page +[4124.38 --> 4125.36] Other than that +[4125.36 --> 4127.14] I figured it all out at one point +[4127.14 --> 4130.86] And I, like, integrated my Twitter feed +[4130.86 --> 4132.14] And I did all this stuff +[4132.14 --> 4133.58] And then +[4133.58 --> 4135.74] I forgot everything +[4135.74 --> 4137.22] Because I don't use any of that stuff +[4137.22 --> 4138.24] Because I don't care +[4138.24 --> 4140.78] Like, I don't care +[4140.78 --> 4144.70] That my cousin's second nephew's +[4144.70 --> 4145.70] Nephew's +[4145.70 --> 4146.44] Nephew's +[4146.44 --> 4147.98] I'm really tired +[4147.98 --> 4148.52] I know +[4148.52 --> 4151.48] Like, my cousin's third cousin had a birthday +[4151.48 --> 4152.98] I don't care +[4152.98 --> 4155.16] So, I basically don't even open it +[4155.16 --> 4157.08] Other than to manage the Linus Tech page +[4157.08 --> 4159.08] You can, like, filter people out of your +[4159.08 --> 4160.84] So, I forgot how to use all that stuff +[4160.84 --> 4161.66] Google Plus +[4161.66 --> 4163.74] I couldn't even figure out in the first place +[4163.74 --> 4164.60] And +[4164.60 --> 4166.58] Not because I'm an idiot +[4166.58 --> 4169.12] And I can't figure out how to add someone to a circle +[4169.12 --> 4170.78] And post something that they can see +[4170.78 --> 4172.34] What I couldn't figure out +[4172.34 --> 4174.70] Was how to make it part of a workflow for me +[4174.70 --> 4178.66] How to integrate it into what I'm doing on Twitter and Facebook +[4178.66 --> 4185.88] How to manage it so that it is correctly tied to some of my YouTube channels +[4185.88 --> 4187.50] But not my other ones +[4187.50 --> 4190.12] And so that I can have people administering it +[4190.12 --> 4194.28] And these are the logistical problems that I had with Google Plus +[4194.28 --> 4197.74] The fact that it was a little bit confusing in the first place +[4197.74 --> 4199.62] Because nothing's really labeled +[4199.62 --> 4202.98] So, yeah, I imagine once you're a Google Plus genius +[4202.98 --> 4204.18] It's pretty quick to navigate +[4204.18 --> 4206.98] But nothing's really correctly labeled in the first place +[4206.98 --> 4210.26] And second, because of Google's history +[4210.26 --> 4215.04] Of permanently tying or untying accounts to each other +[4215.04 --> 4217.82] And being fundamentally broken from then on +[4217.82 --> 4219.48] I was afraid to experiment +[4219.48 --> 4221.02] And +[4221.02 --> 4224.90] So unless I created an entire new batch of YouTube channels +[4224.90 --> 4226.10] An entire new Google Plus +[4226.10 --> 4228.46] And, like, trial and errored it +[4228.46 --> 4229.66] It just wasn't going to work +[4229.66 --> 4231.12] And that's the problem +[4231.12 --> 4232.32] Pretty big problem +[4232.32 --> 4233.34] Pretty big problem +[4233.34 --> 4237.82] If you expect a social network to work +[4237.82 --> 4239.90] You're going to have to have influencers on it +[4239.90 --> 4242.60] I'm already in your ecosystem, Google +[4242.60 --> 4244.60] I'm a YouTuber, okay? +[4245.16 --> 4247.46] And you can't manage to capture me +[4247.46 --> 4249.34] That's a problem +[4249.34 --> 4249.90] It's pretty bad +[4249.90 --> 4250.70] It's terrible +[4250.70 --> 4253.32] You know, when they first started talking about +[4253.32 --> 4255.16] How they're going to integrate Google Plus with everything +[4255.16 --> 4256.68] And how it's going to be this giant ecosystem +[4256.68 --> 4257.58] I was really excited +[4257.58 --> 4258.18] Yeah +[4258.18 --> 4259.20] It could have been great +[4259.20 --> 4260.66] Wow, this is bad +[4260.66 --> 4262.16] And now I'm no longer excited +[4262.16 --> 4263.40] It could have been amazing +[4263.40 --> 4265.22] Should we explain why we're both tired +[4265.22 --> 4267.36] And why laughing at your jokes hurts? +[4267.62 --> 4269.54] It's going to have to do with the poll +[4269.54 --> 4271.22] So let's finish up first +[4271.22 --> 4271.48] Okay +[4271.48 --> 4272.52] I think we kind of are +[4272.52 --> 4273.30] We're kind of done +[4273.30 --> 4274.12] There's a couple other things +[4274.12 --> 4275.24] I just thought this was awesome +[4275.24 --> 4276.26] It's posted on the forum +[4276.26 --> 4279.00] All of Denmark has been recreated in Minecraft +[4279.00 --> 4279.64] What? +[4279.82 --> 4280.88] Posted by genres +[4280.88 --> 4281.54] Now, not +[4281.54 --> 4283.20] Okay, this has kind of been done before +[4283.20 --> 4286.08] Like, the UK did a topographical map +[4286.08 --> 4288.12] But no, no, no, no +[4288.12 --> 4290.00] This is the Denmark +[4290.00 --> 4291.62] Like, buildings and stuff +[4291.62 --> 4293.68] So they're releasing it +[4293.68 --> 4297.12] The only, the only things that have been changed +[4297.12 --> 4301.14] To make it not completely sandboxed +[4301.14 --> 4302.76] Is they have removed explosives +[4302.76 --> 4305.48] And they have +[4305.48 --> 4306.62] There's one other thing +[4306.62 --> 4307.76] And all the roofs are flat +[4307.76 --> 4308.60] That's it +[4308.60 --> 4309.84] Other than that, it's Denmark +[4309.84 --> 4310.98] Wow +[4310.98 --> 4311.90] Isn't that amazing? +[4312.04 --> 4312.74] That's pretty cool +[4312.74 --> 4313.28] I love it +[4313.28 --> 4315.00] I think that's fantastic +[4315.00 --> 4316.14] That is actually really cool +[4316.14 --> 4318.38] And then I had one other thing +[4318.38 --> 4318.84] I think +[4318.84 --> 4319.74] Right +[4319.74 --> 4320.90] Okay +[4320.90 --> 4321.68] Someone +[4321.68 --> 4322.28] Someone +[4322.28 --> 4324.10] Someone figure out the logistics +[4324.10 --> 4325.06] And kickstart this +[4325.06 --> 4326.26] I wanted to make it myself +[4326.26 --> 4326.86] But I give up +[4326.86 --> 4327.98] Because I just don't have time +[4327.98 --> 4329.76] And if you can give me +[4329.76 --> 4331.18] Like a couple bucks for the idea +[4331.18 --> 4332.54] Then I'd appreciate that +[4332.54 --> 4333.66] Otherwise, just make it +[4333.66 --> 4334.54] And send me one +[4334.54 --> 4336.06] And if you can't even manage that +[4336.06 --> 4336.74] Then just make it +[4336.74 --> 4337.36] And I'll buy one +[4337.36 --> 4338.40] Because I really need this +[4338.40 --> 4340.28] I want a smart lamp +[4340.28 --> 4340.80] Okay +[4340.80 --> 4342.22] Lamps +[4342.22 --> 4343.90] The only innovation +[4343.90 --> 4344.82] That has existed +[4344.82 --> 4346.18] In the lamp market +[4346.18 --> 4348.00] Has been aesthetic design +[4348.00 --> 4349.14] And putting different kinds +[4349.14 --> 4349.92] Of light bulbs in it +[4349.92 --> 4351.04] What I need +[4351.04 --> 4351.96] And someone please +[4351.96 --> 4352.76] Make this for me +[4352.76 --> 4355.18] Is an LED smart lamp +[4355.18 --> 4356.26] That is +[4356.26 --> 4357.10] That is +[4357.10 --> 4359.14] For your devices +[4359.14 --> 4359.66] Okay +[4359.66 --> 4360.98] So I think +[4360.98 --> 4362.58] Maybe the Gen 2 product +[4362.58 --> 4362.84] Okay +[4362.84 --> 4364.26] Maybe Gen 2 product +[4364.26 --> 4366.00] Gets wireless charging +[4366.00 --> 4367.34] On one of the levels +[4367.34 --> 4367.98] But basically +[4367.98 --> 4369.06] The way I want the smart lamp +[4369.06 --> 4369.38] To work +[4369.38 --> 4370.20] Is I want it to have a lamp +[4370.20 --> 4370.64] On the top +[4370.64 --> 4371.12] Lamp shade +[4371.12 --> 4372.24] I want it to look pretty nice +[4372.24 --> 4373.02] Modern aesthetic +[4373.02 --> 4374.04] So maybe like +[4374.04 --> 4374.88] White shade +[4374.88 --> 4375.86] Black structure +[4375.86 --> 4376.86] And basically +[4376.86 --> 4378.30] I want the entire thing +[4378.30 --> 4379.58] To be kind of shaped like this +[4379.58 --> 4380.86] And have shelves +[4380.86 --> 4381.84] On each level +[4381.84 --> 4383.32] And then down one side +[4383.32 --> 4384.62] Maybe you can turn that into +[4384.62 --> 4385.72] Like some kind of +[4385.72 --> 4386.84] Of a stylized thing +[4386.84 --> 4387.78] So one side's thicker +[4387.78 --> 4389.50] I want cable management +[4389.50 --> 4390.62] And then +[4390.62 --> 4391.74] I want the whole smart lamp +[4391.74 --> 4392.38] To have one plug +[4392.38 --> 4393.36] That goes into the wall +[4393.36 --> 4394.84] And then maybe a base +[4394.84 --> 4396.34] That has a whole bunch +[4396.34 --> 4397.36] Of USB ports in it +[4397.36 --> 4398.28] So what you can do +[4398.28 --> 4399.58] Is on your shelves +[4399.58 --> 4401.06] You can have little wires +[4401.06 --> 4401.62] Coming up +[4401.62 --> 4402.42] So that basically +[4402.42 --> 4403.16] All you do is +[4403.16 --> 4404.74] You can plug all of your devices +[4404.74 --> 4405.62] Into your smart lamp +[4405.62 --> 4406.38] So that they don't all +[4406.38 --> 4407.38] Take up a bunch of space +[4407.38 --> 4408.08] On your nightstand +[4408.08 --> 4409.28] That's what I want +[4409.28 --> 4410.36] It needs to exist +[4410.36 --> 4411.54] It couldn't be that expensive +[4411.54 --> 4412.76] It couldn't be that difficult +[4412.76 --> 4413.26] To build +[4413.26 --> 4414.58] But there is +[4414.58 --> 4416.06] For some reason +[4416.06 --> 4417.68] There's a crazy shortage +[4417.68 --> 4420.46] Of multiple hub chargers +[4420.46 --> 4421.76] Antec has one +[4421.76 --> 4422.58] That's pretty good +[4422.58 --> 4423.48] There's another one +[4423.48 --> 4424.38] That's pretty good +[4424.38 --> 4425.76] But why isn't there one +[4425.76 --> 4426.58] That just has +[4426.58 --> 4428.30] Like six, seven, eight ports +[4428.30 --> 4429.34] All of which are +[4429.34 --> 4430.62] 2.1 amp capable +[4430.62 --> 4431.44] With all the latest +[4431.44 --> 4432.22] Charging schemes +[4432.22 --> 4433.20] Please +[4433.20 --> 4434.66] Someone make this for me +[4434.66 --> 4435.90] And then follow it up +[4435.90 --> 4436.60] With one where +[4436.60 --> 4437.32] The bottom one +[4437.32 --> 4438.16] Is a large wireless +[4438.16 --> 4438.96] Charging pad +[4438.96 --> 4439.82] And I think +[4439.82 --> 4440.96] Each slides everywhere +[4440.96 --> 4441.64] You might not even +[4441.64 --> 4442.62] Have to follow it up +[4442.62 --> 4442.96] With that +[4442.96 --> 4443.52] That could just be +[4443.52 --> 4444.76] Like the more expensive tier +[4444.76 --> 4446.42] I think +[4446.42 --> 4446.88] Because that also +[4446.88 --> 4447.64] Doesn't sound hard +[4447.64 --> 4448.22] To set up +[4448.22 --> 4449.24] So yes +[4449.24 --> 4449.94] Like at all +[4449.94 --> 4452.06] Lamp with hub +[4452.06 --> 4453.78] Would like it +[4453.78 --> 4454.48] People asking +[4454.48 --> 4455.40] What happened to my hand +[4455.40 --> 4456.44] That actually ties in +[4456.44 --> 4457.40] Pretty well to the next thing +[4457.40 --> 4457.64] As well +[4457.64 --> 4458.44] Yeah that's coming later +[4458.44 --> 4459.38] So +[4459.38 --> 4461.54] Do you want to +[4461.54 --> 4462.32] Okay here +[4462.32 --> 4463.16] Do you want to do +[4463.16 --> 4465.02] A random.org +[4465.02 --> 4467.12] Prize winner pick +[4467.12 --> 4468.32] For the HTC One M8 +[4468.32 --> 4469.04] Sure +[4469.04 --> 4470.20] What's the number range +[4470.20 --> 4470.60] Which +[4470.60 --> 4471.36] Oh here +[4471.36 --> 4472.00] No no it's okay +[4472.00 --> 4472.46] Here just +[4472.46 --> 4473.80] Use my computer +[4473.80 --> 4475.26] Okay +[4475.26 --> 4476.98] I want that one +[4476.98 --> 4477.82] Okay +[4477.82 --> 4481.02] So just do it +[4481.02 --> 4482.18] Do it in our standard way +[4482.18 --> 4483.36] So random +[4483.36 --> 4483.80] I know +[4483.80 --> 4484.42] Random.org +[4484.42 --> 4485.28] Random page +[4485.28 --> 4486.60] And then random person +[4486.60 --> 4487.14] On the page +[4487.14 --> 4488.30] And then guys +[4488.30 --> 4489.00] We're going to validate +[4489.00 --> 4489.62] To make sure +[4489.62 --> 4490.96] That you haven't posted twice +[4490.96 --> 4492.08] Do we know how many pages +[4492.08 --> 4492.50] There are +[4492.50 --> 4493.12] Yes we do +[4493.12 --> 4493.74] On the forum +[4493.74 --> 4494.44] We know how many pages +[4494.44 --> 4496.10] 490 +[4496.10 --> 4496.90] I know +[4496.90 --> 4497.90] We got a lot of entrance +[4497.90 --> 4499.90] Oh no +[4499.90 --> 4501.80] And HTC has confirmed +[4501.80

+[4738.20 --> 4739.00] That's it +[4739.00 --> 4739.52] Oh +[4739.52 --> 4741.98] These stupid +[4741.98 --> 4742.76] Stupid +[4742.76 --> 4744.32] High bit rate clips +[4744.32 --> 4745.92] These aren't going to play over wireless +[4745.92 --> 4747.32] Oh +[4747.32 --> 4748.08] That's +[4748.08 --> 4748.60] That's +[4748.60 --> 4750.22] That's super unfortunate +[4750.22 --> 4750.72] Okay +[4750.72 --> 4751.38] Hold on a second +[4751.38 --> 4751.64] Okay +[4751.64 --> 4752.22] Well I'm going to +[4752.22 --> 4754.18] I'm going to find a clip for you guys +[4754.18 --> 4755.02] That +[4755.02 --> 4755.52] Here +[4755.52 --> 4756.34] Okay you know what +[4756.34 --> 4757.60] Why don't you do like +[4757.60 --> 4758.58] Drag that one over +[4758.58 --> 4760.08] A Twitter blitz or something +[4760.08 --> 4761.70] I have another topic I can talk about +[4761.70 --> 4761.96] Do you +[4761.96 --> 4762.76] Okay yeah yeah yeah +[4762.76 --> 4763.30] Do a topic +[4763.30 --> 4763.68] Do a topic +[4763.68 --> 4764.72] Alright is this going to work +[4764.72 --> 4765.70] Whoa +[4765.70 --> 4766.96] Yeah that should be fun +[4766.96 --> 4767.72] So +[4767.72 --> 4769.04] Where is it +[4769.04 --> 4770.04] Let me get to this +[4770.04 --> 4774.36] BitTorrent is suggesting that Netflix should move to peer-to-peer networks +[4774.36 --> 4778.14] Because of all the crap that's been going around right now +[4778.14 --> 4780.44] Over people charging Netflix +[4780.44 --> 4782.10] Like ISPs charging Netflix +[4782.10 --> 4784.16] And ISPs charging other people for premium +[4784.16 --> 4785.64] Bandwidth lanes +[4785.64 --> 4788.78] And all the net neutrality issues that are happening right now +[4788.78 --> 4790.82] That may still be resolved at some point +[4790.82 --> 4792.22] But for now are not +[4792.22 --> 4793.12] But for now are not +[4793.12 --> 4794.20] So they're suggesting that +[4794.20 --> 4795.34] Like I just said +[4795.34 --> 4797.10] Netflix goes to a peer-to-peer network +[4797.10 --> 4799.80] The reason why we hadn't covered this topic yet +[4799.80 --> 4802.54] Is because I have no notes about it at all +[4802.54 --> 4805.18] But it's been proved that this could work +[4805.18 --> 4805.56] Yep +[4805.56 --> 4807.22] Because of stuff like popcorn time +[4807.22 --> 4808.32] Popcorn time is +[4808.32 --> 4810.28] Imagine you had popcorn time +[4810.28 --> 4811.98] But on the scale of Netflix +[4811.98 --> 4814.80] I don't think the bandwidth issues would even have a problem +[4814.80 --> 4815.76] Be a problem because +[4815.76 --> 4819.04] Popcorn time seemed fast enough +[4819.04 --> 4820.50] I never even ended up trying it +[4820.50 --> 4822.10] But from people that I know that tried it +[4822.10 --> 4826.70] No one had any problems watching videos in high quality +[4826.70 --> 4829.48] So this would totally work +[4829.48 --> 4831.30] And it actually does totally make sense +[4831.30 --> 4832.92] It does pose a problem though +[4832.92 --> 4836.72] As that would be like super easy +[4836.72 --> 4838.46] As you're storing the file on your computer +[4838.46 --> 4839.12] Right +[4839.12 --> 4841.00] And I don't think right now with Netflix +[4841.00 --> 4843.04] Even if you view it through a website +[4843.04 --> 4843.86] It's just streaming +[4843.86 --> 4846.22] You're not actually saving a temp file or anything +[4846.22 --> 4846.42] Right? +[4846.50 --> 4846.86] Yeah, no +[4846.86 --> 4847.76] So +[4847.76 --> 4849.40] Is this working fine now? +[4849.56 --> 4849.72] Yeah +[4849.72 --> 4850.46] Yeah, this is working +[4850.46 --> 4852.32] Actually the solution was just to plug in wired +[4852.32 --> 4853.76] By the way, don't gunk up the +[4853.76 --> 4854.50] Yeah +[4854.50 --> 4855.34] I'm already +[4855.34 --> 4856.94] Okay, here we go +[4856.94 --> 4857.28] So +[4857.28 --> 4858.70] Couple of things +[4858.70 --> 4859.70] So number one +[4859.70 --> 4861.18] Actually before we +[4861.18 --> 4862.54] Hold on +[4862.54 --> 4864.18] Before we get too far into this +[4864.18 --> 4866.00] First up is +[4866.00 --> 4866.46] Guys +[4866.46 --> 4867.72] We need your help +[4867.72 --> 4868.10]

4877.96] So guys +[4877.96 --> 4879.86] We are posting this in the +[4879.86 --> 4880.54] Where is it? +[4880.58 --> 4880.76] Oh +[4880.76 --> 4882.06] I hate that +[4882.06 --> 4883.60] How sometimes it has the drive +[4883.60 --> 4884.02] I know +[4884.02 --> 4884.76] Favicon +[4884.76 --> 4886.86] And sometimes it has a little document one +[4886.86 --> 4887.60] That's ridiculous +[4887.60 --> 4888.14] Yep +[4888.14 --> 4888.82] Okay +[4888.82 --> 4889.68] So +[4889.68 --> 4891.14] There is a problem +[4891.14 --> 4892.50] On the internet right now +[4892.50 --> 4893.10] The problem is a result +[4893.10 --> 4893.74] On Twitter +[4893.74 --> 4895.34] Where +[4895.34 --> 4897.36] The problem +[4897.36 --> 4898.76] Is that +[4898.76 --> 4900.08] Here, I'm just gonna post this +[4900.08

marks +[4965.98 --> 4967.34] That I actually can't remove +[4967.34 --> 4967.64] And +[4967.64 --> 4968.52] The reason why +[4968.52 --> 4969.22] Both of us are +[4969.22 --> 4970.44] Incredibly sore

+[4987.92 --> 4988.74] I haven't watched this one +[4988.74 --> 4989.20] I don't know +[4989.20 --> 4989.98] It's pretty good +[4989.98 --> 4991.22] I don't know how +[4991.22 --> 4992.42] How great it is +[4992.42 --> 4993.12] So this is +[4993.12 --> 4993.94] This is all +[4993.94 --> 4995.96] Is this just pre-set up? +[4996.06 --> 4996.18] Yeah +[4996.18 --> 4997.60] Okay so pre-amble

if there's audio +[5017.18 --> 5018.40] I don't want there to be audio +[5018.40 --> 5018.86] Hold on +[5018.86 --> 5020.62] I don't think there's audio +[5020.62 --> 5021.94] Is this clip 426? +[5022.28 --> 5022.70] I don't know +[5022.70 --> 5023.24] Okay +[5023.24 --> 5027.20] I don't think so +[5030.46 --> 5034.10] I'd like to see Logan +[5034.10 --> 5034.92] Take this on +[5034.92 --> 5039.50] I think we go off screen +[5039.50 --> 5040.02] On this one +[5040.02 --> 5040.92] I'm not sure +[5040.92 --> 5041.72] We'll see +[5041.72 --> 5044.44] Why are they sore today? +[5055.98 --> 5057.16] This one might not be as good +[5057.16 --> 5058.02] As some of the other ones +[5058.02 --> 5058.70] It's not +[5058.70 --> 5059.56] That's why I asked you +[5059.56 --> 5060.36] What clip number it is +[5060.36 --> 5060.78] Oh okay +[5060.78 --> 5062.06] I'll grab the other clip after +[5062.06 --> 5066.32] You appear on the other side of his head +[5066.32 --> 5068.78] Yeah that might not be the best clip +[5068.78 --> 5069.24] It's not +[5069.24 --> 5070.64] That was like the first one we did +[5070.64 --> 5071.38] Oh okay +[5071.38 --> 5071.96] Okay hold on +[5071.96 --> 5072.94] It gets a lot better +[5072.94 --> 5074.18] Okay let me find a better clip +[5074.18 --> 5074.76] Hold on hold on +[5074.76 --> 5075.18] I'll be back +[5075.18 --> 5076.06] Anyway guys +[5076.06 --> 5076.62] Go vote +[5076.62 --> 5077.18] Post the link +[5077.18 --> 5077.64] Post the link +[5077.64 --> 5078.04] Post the link +[5078.04 --> 5078.48] Post the link +[5078.48 --> 5080.08] Vote for the Knights +[5080.08 --> 5081.32] Sorry which one is it? +[5081.68 --> 5083.42] I think it's 426 +[5083.42 --> 5084.42] 426 +[5084.42 --> 5086.74] I can't verify the exact number right now +[5086.74 --> 5087.54] And guys +[5087.54 --> 5088.54] Let me tell you +[5088.54 --> 5091.78] When this kind of stuff happens over and over and over again +[5091.78 --> 5093.86] Yeah we did it many many times +[5093.86 --> 5095.34] It becomes pretty challenging +[5095.34 --> 5098.82] That one was missing some of the best stuff +[5098.82 --> 5099.20] I know +[5099.20 --> 5101.30] This one has a flying double kick +[5101.30 --> 5101.74] And like +[5101.74 --> 5102.40] Hold on +[5102.40 --> 5102.72] Don't +[5102.72 --> 5103.62] Don't spoil it +[5103.62 --> 5104.82] I think this is the good one +[5104.82 --> 5105.38] I'm not sure +[5105.38 --> 5110.28] Trust me guys +[5110.28 --> 5111.24] This was real tiring +[5111.24 --> 5118.12] And uh +[5118.12 --> 5120.20] So how much did your chainmail weigh? +[5121.00 --> 5121.28] I +[5121.28 --> 5122.14] We didn't weigh it +[5122.14 --> 5122.98] But I'm guessing +[5122.98 --> 5123.98] 40-45 pounds +[5123.98 --> 5141.10] Oh this is the one where I lost my helmet +[5141.10 --> 5141.70] Yeah +[5141.70 --> 5143.78] Or one of the ones where I lost my helmet +[5143.78 --> 5144.58] The helmet +[5144.58 --> 5145.62] In spite of being +[5145.62 --> 5146.86] Not that strong +[5146.86 --> 5148.48] Actually helped a little bit +[5148.48 --> 5156.72] Yeah there you go +[5156.72 --> 5157.44] Alright alright +[5157.44 --> 5157.86] Hold on +[5157.86 --> 5158.64] The like +[5158.64 --> 5160.28] Close up awesomeness is +[5160.28 --> 5161.44] Yeah there's one more clip +[5161.44 --> 5163.22] We don't have any of the slow mo +[5163.22 --> 5163.74] You guys +[5163.74 --> 5164.12] Yeah +[5164.12 --> 5165.62] Cause we captured that in Raw +[5165.62 --> 5166.12] Yeah +[5166.12 --> 5167.56] So unfortunately +[5167.56 --> 5169.06] We can't share that with you +[5169.06 --> 5170.62] But I'm gonna look for the clip +[5170.62 --> 5171.50] Of the uh +[5171.50 --> 5172.92] Of some of the more close up shots +[5172.92 --> 5174.72] And then you guys will see +[5174.72 --> 5175.56] It looks +[5175.56 --> 5177.98] It looks interesting from that far away +[5177.98 --> 5179.32] But up close +[5179.32 --> 5180.48] Uh honestly +[5180.48 --> 5181.74] Even the guys filming it +[5181.74 --> 5182.38] So Brandon +[5182.38 --> 5183.72] Was like +[5183.72 --> 5185.34] Uh +[5185.34 --> 5185.98] Okay +[5185.98 --> 5187.52] That's a lot faster +[5187.52 --> 5189.56] And a lot more intense +[5189.56 --> 5190.64] When I'm right next to it +[5190.64 --> 5193.10] He got hit once +[5193.10 --> 5195.10] Uh what's this +[5195.10 --> 5196.00] One one +[5196.00 --> 5196.80] Take three +[5196.80 --> 5197.50] Hold on +[5197.50 --> 5198.92] Do you know what one you're looking for? +[5199.08 --> 5200.18] Did Brandon get hit? +[5200.94 --> 5201.64] Once yeah +[5201.64 --> 5202.16] Did he? +[5202.26 --> 5203.00] By my axe +[5203.00 --> 5204.02] Really? +[5204.12 --> 5205.16] Or wait no that was the camera +[5205.16 --> 5205.78] Never mind yeah +[5205.78 --> 5206.20] My bad +[5206.20 --> 5207.38] The camera got hit once +[5207.38 --> 5209.90] When did we do the long take? +[5211.20 --> 5212.12] I don't know +[5212.12 --> 5213.10] I don't remember +[5213.10 --> 5214.94] Wasn't that near the beginning of these ones? +[5215.10 --> 5215.82] I think so +[5215.82 --> 5216.94] That's what I'm looking for +[5216.94 --> 5218.40] But in the meantime +[5218.40 --> 5219.26] Do we have any topics +[5219.26 --> 5220.42] To keep people busy with? +[5220.44 --> 5222.10] I don't think so +[5222.10 --> 5224.02] There's the +[5224.02 --> 5224.52] Uh +[5224.52 --> 5226.02] Winners of the build blog contest +[5226.02 --> 5227.58] But I kinda wanna go through that with you +[5227.58 --> 5229.16] I can bring it up on this laptop though +[5229.16 --> 5229.76] Oh okay +[5229.76 --> 5231.18] Cool +[5231.18 --> 5233.30] Cause we're doing the voting thing now +[5233.30 --> 5234.58] And there's all that stuff going on +[5234.58 --> 5235.38] Right +[5235.38 --> 5236.36] That makes sense +[5236.36 --> 5237.84] No +[5237.84 --> 5239.54] I keep forgetting it's this laptop +[5239.54 --> 5240.28] I'll be careful +[5240.28 --> 5243.12] Okay +[5243.12 --> 5243.90] So +[5243.90 --> 5244.86] Build blogs +[5244.86 --> 5245.88] I was gonna do this after +[5245.88 --> 5247.18] So just give me a sec guys +[5247.18 --> 5248.16] I will be ready though +[5248.16 --> 5249.42] Um +[5249.42 --> 5250.78] This is +[5250.78 --> 5252.40] I hate the way that this camera +[5252.40 --> 5253.32] It's terrible +[5253.32 --> 5255.58] If you guys are wondering why it's taking him so long +[5255.58 --> 5258.46] You're dancing +[5258.46 --> 5260.26] Hey +[5260.26 --> 5261.00] Knights danced +[5261.00 --> 5264.44] Okay I think this is the one right? +[5265.64 --> 5266.26] It might be +[5266.26 --> 5267.00] How long is it? +[5267.74 --> 5268.34] It's pretty long +[5268.34 --> 5269.28] Very possibly +[5269.28 --> 5269.82] Yep +[5269.82 --> 5270.42] Okay +[5270.42 --> 5271.96] Okay so +[5271.96 --> 5273.14] Here you go guys +[5273.14 --> 5274.08] Sneak preview +[5274.08 --> 5275.00] Sneak preview +[5275.00 --> 5277.70] So here we are up close +[5277.70 --> 5279.12] These costumes +[5279.12 --> 5280.30] They were cool +[5280.30 --> 5281.54] Until it like rained +[5281.54 --> 5283.12] And we'd been wearing them for six hours +[5283.12 --> 5283.74] So we had +[5283.74 --> 5285.22] We were essentially wearing towels +[5285.22 --> 5286.22] And then under +[5286.22 --> 5287.44] Chain and scale +[5287.44 --> 5288.66] And then plate on top +[5288.66 --> 5293.84] What's up? +[5294.46 --> 5294.84] Twitch chat? +[5295.62 --> 5296.50] I'm just curious +[5296.50 --> 5300.00] It's gonna take a while for him to catch up +[5300.00 --> 5301.84] Did I already do my goofy little dance? +[5303.22 --> 5303.82] I think so +[5303.82 --> 5311.36] I think this is just repeated slamming +[5311.36 --> 5312.50] Oh is that all this is? +[5312.56 --> 5312.78] Yeah +[5312.78 --> 5314.12] Oh this is the wrong clip +[5314.12 --> 5314.68] Well whatever +[5314.68 --> 5315.02] Okay +[5315.02 --> 5316.24] You guys will have to wait +[5316.24 --> 5317.96] To see some of the crazier stuff later +[5317.96 --> 5321.06] Stuff like that like legitimately hurt though +[5321.06 --> 5324.86] Especially when he hits me in the face +[5324.86 --> 5327.88] So yeah that was just us getting some clips +[5327.88 --> 5329.32] Of like me hitting him +[5329.32 --> 5329.80] Okay well +[5329.80 --> 5330.90] I'm sorry guys +[5330.90 --> 5331.78] You'll have to wait +[5331.78 --> 5333.76] Till we actually release our commercial +[5333.76 --> 5336.82] Something else that you guys should definitely check out +[5336.82 --> 5339.86] Is by far the best promotional video +[5339.86 --> 5341.68] That my team has ever made +[5341.68 --> 5343.36] I actually had very little involvement +[5343.36 --> 5344.14] This thing was awesome +[5344.14 --> 5344.72] With this one +[5344.72 --> 5346.22] But you know what +[5346.22 --> 5347.58] Maybe we'll just play it on the stream +[5347.58 --> 5349.50] Maybe we'll just play this one on the stream +[5349.50 --> 5351.22] Twitch does sometimes have problems +[5351.22 --> 5352.74] Just like streaming YouTube videos +[5352.74 --> 5353.76] For whatever reason +[5353.76 --> 5355.58] I don't know how that even happens +[5355.58 --> 5356.78] But just a heads up +[5356.78 --> 5358.52] It might work +[5358.52 --> 5359.28] We'll see +[5359.28 --> 5360.78] Okay well hold on a minute +[5360.78 --> 5361.44] Let me uh +[5361.44 --> 5362.80] Let me see if I can +[5362.80 --> 5364.20] Where is Kingston's channel +[5364.20 --> 5364.54] Nope +[5364.54 --> 5373.24] So this is actually posted on Kingston's YouTube channel +[5373.24 --> 5377.86] I think they're under Kingston Memory +[5377.86 --> 5379.50] Or Kingston Technology +[5379.50 --> 5380.14] There we go +[5380.14 --> 5381.34] Alright you guys +[5381.34 --> 5382.42] You guys should check this out +[5382.42 --> 5383.76] Let's check this out +[5383.76 --> 5386.26] Wait where is it +[5386.26 --> 5387.10] They +[5387.10 --> 5388.20] Oh that's weird +[5388.20 --> 5390.58] They posted it on Twitter +[5390.58 --> 5393.08] But I don't actually see it here +[5393.08 --> 5395.24] Bizarre +[5395.24 --> 5398.24] Um okay +[5398.24 --> 5398.64] That is weird +[5398.64 --> 5398.66] That is weird +[5398.66 --> 5399.74] Because it has way more views +[5399.74 --> 5401.42] Than like anything that's on there as well +[5401.42 --> 5402.34] Yeah +[5402.34 --> 5403.16] Okay

Hivefire +[5449.10 --> 5449.98] Is luckily +[5449.98 --> 5450.84] The very first one +[5450.84 --> 5451.32] In the list +[5451.32 --> 5451.98] Sweet +[5451.98 --> 5452.80] Wow +[5452.80 --> 5453.74] Look at that thing +[5453.74 --> 5455.68] I haven't even seen this yet +[5455.68 --> 5456.20] Pretty ridiculous +[5456.20 --> 5456.70] We haven't done +[5456.70 --> 5457.52] Buildlogs of the week +[5457.52 --> 5458.30] In a long time +[5458.30 --> 5458.68] It is now +[5458.68 --> 5459.50] Buildlogs of the month +[5459.50 --> 5460.22] Of the month +[5460.22 --> 5462.02] That is of the month +[5462.02 --> 5463.88] This is part of the reason +[5463.88 --> 5464.32] Why we made it +[5464.32 --> 5464.84] Buildlogs of the month +[5464.84 --> 5465.60] Unfortunately +[5465.60 --> 5466.60] Last time I checked +[5466.60 --> 5467.30] I don't know if it's still +[5467.30 --> 5468.00] This way or not +[5468.00 --> 5468.38] But +[5468.38 --> 5469.30] The +[5469.30 --> 5470.42] Buildlogs +[5470.42 --> 5471.04] Actually +[5471.04 --> 5472.56] For this coming month +[5472.56 --> 5473.56] Only had one submission +[5473.56 --> 5474.64] So just so everyone knows +[5474.64 --> 5475.50] If you want to be on +[5475.50 --> 5476.22] Buildlogs of the month +[5476.22 --> 5476.94] Go to the forum +[5476.94 --> 5479.08] And post your submission +[5479.08 --> 5479.94] Read the rules +[5479.94 --> 5480.48] Because +[5480.48 --> 5481.56] For +[5481.56 --> 5482.84] This submission +[5482.84 --> 5483.74] Wow +[5483.74 --> 5485.22] I let all the people through +[5485.22 --> 5486.02] That broke the rules +[5486.02 --> 5487.00] But for next submission +[5487.00 --> 5488.24] I made it very clear +[5488.24 --> 5489.24] Who did it wrong +[5489.24 --> 5490.10] Next submission +[5490.10 --> 5490.90] Please do it correctly +[5490.90 --> 5491.58] And then we'll be +[5491.58 --> 5492.20] We'll be good to go +[5492.20 --> 5492.62] This +[5492.62 --> 5493.16] I like +[5493.16 --> 5494.02] Almost don't even know +[5494.02 --> 5494.50] What to say +[5494.50 --> 5496.54] I mean look at the details +[5496.54 --> 5497.22] It's just crazy awesome cool +[5497.22 --> 5497.58] Yeah +[5497.58 --> 5498.08] I mean

5503.58] Coloring the accents +[5503.58 --> 5504.68] On this motherboard +[5504.68 --> 5505.78] Looks outstanding +[5505.78 --> 5507.54] An insane amount of time +[5507.54 --> 5508.06] Went into this +[5508.06 --> 5508.76] I mean the amount +[5508.76 --> 5509.06] The +[5509.06 --> 5510.42] It's funny because +[5510.42 --> 5512.26] Stuff doesn't match +[5512.26 --> 5513.34] But it almost looks +[5513.34 --> 5514.20] Better that way +[5514.20 --> 5514.30] Yep +[5514.30 --> 5514.88] Like we've got +[5514.88 --> 5515.68] Clear tubing +[5515.68 --> 5517.06] Braided tubing +[5517.06 --> 5518.36] We've got +[5518.36 --> 5520.26] Like a black and red +[5520.26 --> 5521.44] And grey color scheme +[5521.44 --> 5521.88] Here +[5521.88 --> 5522.70] With black +[5522.70 --> 5523.12] Yellow +[5523.12

utter chaos +[5529.06 --> 5530.24] It actually plays into +[5530.24 --> 5531.88] The whole hive fire idea +[5531.88 --> 5532.72] Because the fire's not +[5532.72 --> 5533.48] Going to look identical +[5533.48 --> 5534.32] All over the place +[5534.32 --> 5535.28] That's fantastic +[5535.28 --> 5536.04] It's really cool +[5536.04 --> 5536.56] Alright so +[5536.56 --> 5537.46] This wasn't a winner +[5537.46 --> 5538.32] But we might as well +[5538.32 --> 5538.90] These are all +[5538.90 --> 5539.92] Crazy good +[5539.92 --> 5539.98] Submissions +[5539.98 --> 5540.88] Yeah for sure +[5540.88 -->

down +[5556.32 --> 5557.36] To Project Rampage +[5557.36 --> 5558.14] On this thread +[5558.14 --> 5559.02] Click on his +[5559.02 --> 5559.62] Link and then you'll +[5559.62 --> 5560.32] Go to his full +[5560.32 --> 5560.78] Build log +[5560.78 --> 5561.24] Which will have +[5561.24 --> 5561.96] All the pictures +[5561.96 --> 5562.78] And all the details +[5562.78 --> 5563.48] And all that kind of stuff +[5563.48 --> 5564.58] These are just short snippets +[5564.58 --> 5565.16] Look at this +[5565.16 --> 5566.18] Bent tubing +[5566.18 --> 5567.52] Oh man +[5567.52 --> 5568.40] I love that +[5568.40 --> 5569.22] It looks really good +[5569.22 --> 5570.16] That looks clean +[5570.16 --> 5571.24] I mean I'm not +[5571.24 --> 5573.44] I'm not much of an +[5573.44 --> 5574.44] Overdone +[5574.44 --> 5575.64] Fittings guy +[5575.64 --> 5577.60] And this to me +[5577.60 --> 5579.60] Is a little bit extreme +[5579.60 --> 5580.64] You can see how many +[5580.64 --> 5581.34] Fittings are stacked +[5581.34 --> 5582.30] On top of each other here +[5582.30 --> 5583.36] I don't like +[5583.36 --> 5584.72] Unnecessary points of failure +[5584.72 --> 5587.44] So that's one thing +[5587.44 --> 5589.48] But +[5589.48 --> 5591.32] Love the aesthetic +[5591.32 --> 5592.56] Love the way +[5592.56 --> 5593.58] These PCI Express +[5593.58 --> 5594.60] Connectors come in +[5594.60 --> 5596.82] Absolutely love +[5596.82 --> 5598.06] This bend right here +[5598.06 --> 5599.10] Like bringing it up +[5599.10 --> 5600.30] And then away +[5600.30 --> 5601.54] Really breaks up +[5601.54 --> 5602.74] That normal look +[5602.74 --> 5603.84] Of Tri SLI +[5603.84 --> 5604.80] Or Tri Crossfire +[5604.80 --> 5605.68] Graphics cards +[5605.68 --> 5606.82] With this +[5606.82 --> 5607.92] Kind of this red line +[5607.92 --> 5608.74] On the bottom one +[5608.74 --> 5609.96] Looks fantastic +[5609.96 --> 5611.08] Memory cooling +[5611.08 --> 5611.52] Is again +[5611.52 --> 5612.14] Something that I'm +[5612.14 --> 5613.26] Not a huge fan of +[5613.26 --> 5613.86] Because it's +[5613.86 --> 5614.86] Completely unnecessary +[5614.86 --> 5616.00] Although +[5616.00 --> 5617.90] That G-Skill RAM +[5617.90 --> 5618.82] That we have +[5618.82 --> 5620.06] The 2400 megahertz +[5620.06 --> 5621.28] 64 gig kit +[5621.28 --> 5622.36] Does benefit +[5622.36 --> 5623.34] From active cooling +[5623.34 --> 5624.32] So I shouldn't say +[5624.32 --> 5625.20] Completely unnecessary +[5625.20 --> 5625.90] Because I don't want +[5625.90 --> 5626.78] To put fans on things +[5626.78 --> 5627.04] Either +[5627.04 --> 5628.52] Yeah that's true +[5628.52 --> 5629.36] Especially if you're +[5629.36 --> 5630.04] Doing like a crazy +[5630.04 --> 5630.66] Water cool build +[5630.66 --> 5631.22] You

Build of the month +[5640.02 --> 5641.08] Badges or something +[5641.08 --> 5641.82] We'll figure that out +[5641.82 --> 5642.62] That's probably not +[5642.62 --> 5643.40] Going to happen immediately +[5643.40 --> 5645.06] But yeah +[5645.06 --> 5646.22] The build of the +[5646.22 --> 5648.56] Something is back +[5648.56 --> 5649.04] We're going to be +[5649.04 --> 5649.58] Doing another one

--> 5682.70] I think so +[5682.70 --> 5683.22] I'm not sure +[5683.22 --> 5684.06] Interesting +[5684.06 --> 5685.32] We should have a look +[5685.32 --> 5686.36] At where the results +[5686.36 -->

5702.86] In full armor +[5702.86 --> 5703.98] Hours +[5703.98 --> 5706.46] Like seven hours +[5706.46 --> 5708.42] No I think it was +[5708.42 --> 5709.40] More like five +[5709.40 --> 5710.26] Because we had the armor +[5710.26 --> 5710.90] On for a while +[5710.90 --> 5711.30] And we were just +[5711.30 --> 5712.24] Kind of doing stuff +[5712.24 --> 5713.26] But like you were +[5713.26 -->

to 4.35. +[4.00 --> 7.00] Never mind that that's a completely awkward time to start the show. +[7.00 --> 10.00] The problem is, if we do that, we'll go live at 4.40. +[10.00 --> 13.00] I guess that's true. It's just... +[13.00 --> 15.00] It's something about you. +[15.00 --> 16.00] We're fashionably late. +[16.00 --> 17.00] Fashionably late. +[17.00 --> 18.00] Why is it something about me? +[18.00 --> 21.00] Well, I mean, with you, everything seems to be about you. +[21.00 --> 23.00] You're a very self-centered person. +[23.00 --> 27.00] Speaking of which, I guess we're on the Linus Tech Tips show! +[27.00 --> 30.00] Hosted by Linus Media Group. +[30.00 --> 32.00] Featuring the Linus Tech Tips forum. +[32.00 --> 34.00] Are you implying that I'm projecting? +[34.00 --> 36.00] No. I'm not implying anything. +[36.00 --> 41.00] Because I think you have a very suspicious disposition and you always throw accusations around. +[44.00 --> 45.00] It's all about that. +[45.00 --> 50.00] Alright, speaking of projecting, Google is projected... +[52.00 --> 54.00] It kind of worked. +[54.00 --> 55.00] Not really. +[55.00 --> 62.00] The rumor on the street is that Google has basically reached a deal to buy Twitch for a billion dollars. +[62.00 --> 65.00] That's the video streaming site that we are streaming on right now. +[65.00 --> 66.00] This was rumored a while back. +[66.00 --> 67.00] Yeah, exactly. +[67.00 --> 72.00] This was rumored a while back, but never actually confirmed. +[72.00 --> 77.00] And even though a lot of places are reporting that it's a done deal, it still is... +[77.00 --> 78.00] We're not actually doing the topic. +[78.00 --> 79.00] We're not actually doing the topic. +[79.00 --> 80.00] No. +[80.00 --> 81.00] I'm doing call-outs. +[81.00 --> 82.00] Right, so that's a thing. +[82.00 --> 88.00] Also, Ubisoft plans to send a fan to Mount Everest to play Far Cry 4. +[89.00 --> 90.00] Copy us much? +[90.00 --> 91.00] Yeah, seriously. +[91.00 --> 92.00] Right? +[92.00 --> 93.00] Am I right? +[93.00 --> 94.00] Yeah. +[94.00 --> 95.00] What else we got? +[95.00 --> 98.00] Microsoft is planning on merging all of their versions of Windows into one. +[98.00 --> 100.00] Just in case you didn't know that was happening. +[100.00 --> 101.00] We'll talk about that later. +[101.00 --> 102.00] I should call it Uber Edition. +[103.00 --> 105.00] We should call it Barnaclea's Edition. +[105.00 --> 107.00] And it should have like, tears on the box. +[107.00 --> 110.00] Speaking of which, our guest today is Barnaclea's. +[110.00 --> 111.00] Barnaclea's. +[112.00 --> 113.00] Correct. +[114.00 --> 120.00] A British MP wants to punish people for stealing in-game items with real-world punishments like jail. +[120.00 --> 122.00] Kind of a big deal. +[122.00 --> 123.00] And intro. +[123.00 --> 125.00] The in-game punishments weren't working. +[125.00 --> 128.00] Like calling them buttholes in the chat. +[128.00 --> 129.00] You're a jerk. +[130.00 --> 131.00] Go away. +[132.00 --> 133.00] Please stop. +[133.00 --> 135.00] My mom says to ignore comments from you. +[139.00 --> 141.00] Oh, there we go. +[150.00 --> 151.00] Okay. +[151.00 --> 169.00] Well, if someone didn't have their paws all over my mouse, I'd be able to tell you that today's sponsor is Lynda.com. +[170.00 --> 176.00] The great, fantastic, awesome, exceptional, wonderful place to learn online with videos. +[176.00 --> 177.00] I mean, aside from our channel. +[177.00 --> 180.00] You can learn all kinds of things on Lynda.com that we don't cover. +[180.00 --> 182.00] So I don't really consider them a competitor, you know? +[182.00 --> 192.00] I don't really consider it a conflict of interest for me to sponsor them, just like they don't consider it a conflict for me to make an educational video about something and then promote their educational videos. +[193.00 --> 195.00] Maybe we should turn this into a bitter rivalry. +[196.00 --> 198.00] We should make, speaking of self-centered, we should make Linus.com. +[199.00 --> 200.00] Lynda versus Linus.com. +[200.00 --> 201.00] Oh, God. +[202.00 --> 203.00] Linus.com. +[203.00 --> 207.00] And then we need like a picture of me being like, looking into a book. +[208.00 --> 209.00] But very... +[209.00 --> 210.00] Angry. +[210.00 --> 211.00] Or like serious. +[211.00 --> 213.00] I'm looking at this with the most neutral tone possible. +[214.00 --> 215.00] Yeah. +[215.00 --> 217.00] Our other sponsor is actually Intel. +[217.00 --> 226.00] They're going to have a pretty cool presence at Nerd HQ involving giving money away to charities and giving processors away to cool people like you. +[227.00 --> 228.00] And... +[228.00 --> 229.00] Yay. +[229.00 --> 230.00] So we'll tell you more about that. +[230.00 --> 231.00] Really? +[231.00 --> 232.00] How to win a processor. +[232.00 --> 237.00] How to make Intel give a dollar to a pretty awesome charity. +[237.00 --> 238.00] So we'll cover that later on. +[238.00 --> 239.00] What can I do for you? +[239.00 --> 243.00] I told you there would be people in the chat wondering why I was here because I quit. +[244.00 --> 245.00] Really? +[246.00 --> 247.00] Really? +[248.00 --> 249.00] Okay. +[249.00 --> 250.00] Let's be clear. +[250.00 --> 251.00] So in a recent video... +[252.00 --> 253.00] I think most of them are joking. +[253.00 --> 257.00] In the H220X video, okay, I asked... +[258.00 --> 261.00] Okay, a couple things happened that were real and a couple things happened that weren't real. +[261.00 --> 264.00] The things that were real were that the H220X is pretty kick-ass. +[264.00 --> 266.00] It performs really well. +[266.00 --> 267.00] It's expandable. +[267.00 --> 268.00] It's quiet. +[269.00 --> 270.00] Kick-ass product. +[270.00 --> 271.00] Great value. +[271.00 --> 278.00] Another thing that was real, I did indeed ask Luke to shave parts of me that I couldn't reach on my own. +[279.00 --> 284.00] But I mean, the thing about that is that really what I was talking about was my back. +[285.00 --> 290.00] I mean, the coin purse isn't exactly an issue as long as there's some stretchiness to the skin. +[290.00 --> 293.00] You can kind of maneuver it the way that you need to. +[293.00 --> 298.00] Have you seen that video where the guys are like, and they have to shave? +[298.00 --> 299.00] It's a YouTube commercial thing. +[300.00 --> 303.00] It shows all the weird things that guys do to their face so they can shave properly. +[303.00 --> 304.00] Right, yes. +[304.00 --> 305.00] And they're all like, ugh. +[305.00 --> 307.00] And they're trying to flatten out their face so they can shave properly. +[307.00 --> 308.00] Yeah, yeah. +[308.00 --> 310.00] It's like, they should have a non-safe for work commercial version of that. +[311.00 --> 313.00] I wonder if they make more money. +[313.00 --> 316.00] You gotta be careful saying things like, they should have. +[317.00 --> 319.00] They shouldn't have, but it would be funny. +[319.00 --> 320.00] But it would be funny. +[320.00 --> 321.00] But it would be funny. +[321.00 --> 325.00] So I fired Luke for refusing to do that. +[325.00 --> 326.00] That part wasn't real. +[326.00 --> 327.00] He did not get fired. +[327.00 --> 331.00] It would be fun if you did that though, because then I could make tons of money in the legal system. +[331.00 --> 332.00] Tons of money. +[332.00 --> 336.00] You know I don't have enough money for it to be tons of money. +[336.00 --> 337.00] Yeah. +[337.00 --> 338.00] I would run out of money. +[338.00 --> 340.00] And then how would you feel? +[340.00 --> 342.00] I can take your totally doesn't exist at all Lambo. +[342.00 --> 343.00] Yeah, exactly. +[343.00 --> 346.00] Which would be great, because it doesn't exist at all. +[346.00 --> 354.00] You could, you could like, depending on how long you could hold a chair position with your hands in front of you like this, you could drive down the street in the imaginary Lambo. +[354.00 --> 358.00] It's like, get a shuffle foot thing going. +[358.00 --> 365.00] Speaking of imaginary and, and employees screwing over their employers who were just trying to do something cool. +[365.00 --> 366.00] This. +[366.00 --> 370.00] So there's an imaginary game called Yawg Ventures. +[370.00 --> 381.00] And there's an artist who was originally supposed to work on the project that basically took the $35,000 that was allocated to, presumably him, not actually sure. +[381.00 --> 387.00] But allocated to the artist and then went and took a job at LucasArts or Lucasfilm, I think it was Lucasfilm. +[387.00 --> 395.00] And basically booked it with $35,000 for what was supposed to be about six months of work, but actually ended up being two weeks worth of work. +[395.00 --> 411.00] This caused the Yawg's cast folks to basically lose faith in winter cool games and ask for $150,000 of the Kickstarter money to be given to them in trust to take care of the physical prizes as well as to, you know, this was, it's very unclear. +[411.00 --> 416.00] This is all very nebulous right now because it's, he said, she said, except she's not talking. +[416.00 --> 431.00] So, um, so apparently according to winter cool, a hundred thousand of that was supposed to be for miscellaneous things like appearances at trade shows and some promotional activities as well as hiring a lead programmer. +[431.00 --> 436.00] Um, however, right now, basically the project is completely dead. +[436.00 --> 438.00] Winter cool is insolvent. +[438.00 --> 439.00] They're bankrupt. +[439.00 --> 444.00] And Yawg's cast is not saying much publicly at least. +[444.00 --> 446.00] So Yawg's cast is the female in this situation? +[446.00 --> 447.00] I guess so. +[447.00 --> 448.00] Sure. +[448.00 --> 449.00] She said she didn't comment. +[449.00 --> 450.00] Sure. +[450.00 --> 451.00] Yes. +[451.00 --> 452.00] Yes. +[452.00 --> 453.00] I just wanted to clarify. +[453.00 --> 460.00] So basically what's going on now is Yawg's cast has said, look, there's a lot of inconsistencies in the story that people are being told, +[460.00 --> 464.00] but we don't really see the point of issuing a statement right now. +[464.00 --> 467.00] It looks like they're going to kind of wait for the dust to settle. +[467.00 --> 473.00] But the big question everyone's asking right now is what happened to that hundred thousand dollars that wasn't for physical rewards? +[473.00 --> 475.00] And what are they going to do? +[475.00 --> 479.00] Because up till now Yawg's cast has been pointing people towards winter cool to get refunds, +[479.00 --> 483.00] which obviously is not going to happen when they're bankrupt at this point. +[483.00 --> 488.00] Um, so let me see if there's anything else that I kind of missed here. +[488.00 --> 495.00] Getting refunds from Kickstarter things just aren't, isn't really a thing as far as I can tell. +[495.00 --> 501.00] And as far as I can tell, kickstarting games is just a big problem because, and this is, I mean, honestly, +[501.00 --> 508.00] this is the same trap that the Yawg's cast guys fell into is they, they trusted a bunch of guys who were experienced filmmaker, +[508.00 --> 519.00] like animation veterans, but didn't necessarily have, and by their own admission, didn't necessarily have the business savvy to actually create a game studio. +[519.00 --> 531.00] And so the problem here is that when you put your trust in animators and filmmakers who are great at telling stories and making things look great to make something that they actually don't have any experience doing, +[531.00 --> 537.00] you end up with a very good trailer for something that might not be anything like that and might not end up existing at all. +[537.00 --> 543.00] So one thing that Yawg's cast has done is they've given everyone a copy of Nerd King's, Kingston's Tug? +[543.00 --> 548.00] King, whoa, yeah. Kingston's, yeah. Kingston's Tug open world game. +[548.00 --> 556.00] But some of the backer options, things like named in-game items are, they've already said, are not or may not be available in that game. +[556.00 --> 562.00] And so some people are apparently pissed. They haven't communicated much publicly, like I said, +[562.00 --> 568.00] although reading through comments has actually been more enlightening than reading the articles about what's going on, +[568.00 --> 574.00] because I've seen people saying, well, hey, I heard from them and they're doing this or they're doing that or... +[574.00 --> 579.00] Yeah, because apparently Yawg's cast is commenting behind the scenes a lot. They're talking to backers directly, +[579.00 --> 583.00] probably through the Kickstarter platform or other things instead of making public statements. +[583.00 --> 584.00] Yeah. Which is... +[584.00 --> 585.00] I get that. Yeah. +[585.00 --> 589.00] You don't owe an explanation to the people who didn't give you their money at this point. +[589.00 --> 592.00] Yeah, but then if you are actively communicating with the Kickstarter people, that's cool. +[592.00 --> 595.00] So I guess from them it's just a matter of PR damage control. +[595.00 --> 596.00] Yeah. +[596.00 --> 601.00] Like, how do you keep yourselves from looking any more bad than you already look? +[601.00 --> 611.00] Do you make a public apology when in reality, probably a small fraction, like very small fraction of the people that they would reach with a video blast +[611.00 --> 614.00] or like an apology in every video for a week... +[614.00 --> 615.00] Have actually backed up. +[615.00 --> 617.00] Have actually even heard of this. +[617.00 --> 618.00] Yeah. +[618.00 --> 622.00] So why bring it up if it's something where they're going to try and figure out a way to take care of these people? +[622.00 --> 626.00] I guess we just need to see if they end up resolving it to people's satisfaction. +[626.00 --> 627.00] I mean, I... +[627.00 --> 628.00] I... +[628.00 --> 629.00] I... +[629.00 --> 633.00] I see so many ways that this went south. +[633.00 --> 637.00] I mean, Wintercool was expecting Yogg's Cast to pimp the game a lot. +[637.00 --> 638.00] Yeah. +[638.00 --> 645.00] And so that they'd get that pre-order revenue, which would help them pay salaries, which would help them actually develop the game that they promised to develop. +[645.00 --> 647.00] Yogg's Cast didn't want to... +[647.00 --> 652.00] I mean, obviously, if we were funding development of a Linus Tech Tips game where like... +[652.00 --> 654.00] I don't know. +[654.00 --> 658.00] Like, it's like a side-scroller combat game where I like shout... +[658.00 --> 659.00] You're fired! +[659.00 --> 660.00] You're fired! +[660.00 --> 664.00] Linus Media Group presents a Linus Tech Tips production, Linus shoots things. +[664.00 --> 665.00] You're fired! +[665.00 --> 666.00] You're fired! +[666.00 --> 679.00] Um, so if that was the objective, and the game was coming along at a pace I wasn't comfortable with, and a quality level that I wasn't comfortable with, am I gonna throw my name behind it more and more and more? +[679.00 --> 686.00] Like, on the other hand, you know, if they saw this going south, was there time to... +[686.00 --> 687.00] To deal with it more properly. +[687.00 --> 696.00] ...salvage it maybe at the time that they renegotiated the contract shortly after the Kickstarter when that artist left, and was there time to kind of terminate it then? +[696.00 --> 697.00] I don't know. +[697.00 --> 704.00] It's very hard to say whose fault this is without actually having been on the inside of one side or the other, or in reality, probably both. +[704.00 --> 706.00] To really know what happened there. +[706.00 --> 707.00] Pretty interesting. +[707.00 --> 708.00] There's a... +[708.00 --> 714.00] I talked about a few Kickstarters that I've done for the last while, but one of them, I'm not gonna be able to remember the name of it, but it's... +[714.00 --> 719.00] I tried to buy it as a present for my dad. +[719.00 --> 724.00] I bought it in January of 2012. +[724.00 --> 733.00] And the plan was, I bought it on Kickstarter January 2012, that was well within the estimated shipping date, and I was hoping that it would show up for Christmas of 2013. +[733.00 --> 736.00] So like, or Christmas of 2012, I guess, technically. +[736.00 --> 737.00] Um, it didn't. +[737.00 --> 741.00] It still didn't show up yet. +[741.00 --> 744.00] They still haven't even locked down a manufacturer yet. +[744.00 --> 747.00] And they still don't have their final prototype done yet. +[747.00 --> 749.00] So, I don't know. +[749.00 --> 754.00] I used to be like, way behind Kickstarters, and I just mostly ignore that whole website now. +[754.00 --> 755.00] Yeah. +[755.00 --> 756.00] Except for like... +[756.00 --> 758.00] Well, there was that wonderful potato salad. +[758.00 --> 760.00] I got some. +[760.00 --> 762.00] Never mind that it was in the mail, stuck in customs for two weeks. +[762.00 --> 763.00] It was delicious. +[763.00 --> 764.00] Oh my God. +[764.00 --> 765.00] I'm just kidding. +[765.00 --> 766.00] I did not buy potato salad. +[766.00 --> 768.00] But that is very likely what would happen. +[768.00 --> 770.00] It would go bad before it got to you. +[770.00 --> 774.00] But, it's, I see it for things like that balloon thing that we saw recently. +[774.00 --> 775.00] Yeah. +[775.00 --> 778.00] Where the guy has already completely designed it, and it's done. +[778.00 --> 779.00] Yeah. +[779.00 --> 780.00] That's like, okay, cool. +[780.00 --> 785.00] It's, it's basically, it's just a pack of pre-attached balloons on three plastic nozzles. +[785.00 --> 789.00] And the idea is you can fill a hundred water balloons in under a minute. +[789.00 --> 790.00] Which is beast. +[790.00 --> 793.00] Nozzle, fill them up, and then you give it a shake, and they all pre-tie. +[793.00 --> 798.00] So, you can fill up a big thing of them, and it costs like, however much for a pack. +[798.00 --> 803.00] And I've seen a lot of people going, well, it's like, really stupid that it's one-time +[803.00 --> 804.00] use, blah, blah, blah. +[804.00 --> 805.00] How is that more efficient? +[805.00 --> 810.00] It's more efficient because, and people have been like, you should be able to put the balloons +[810.00 --> 811.00] back on the thing. +[811.00 --> 814.00] I'm like, that's not any faster than tying them by hand. +[814.00 --> 819.00] The idea here is that for a couple bucks, let's say you're a scout troop or something. +[819.00 --> 820.00] Okay? +[820.00 --> 825.00] So, for like a hundred bucks, when you organize an event, you can have, you know, however +[825.00 --> 829.00] many hundreds of water balloons ready to go in like a few minutes. +[829.00 --> 831.00] Instead of wasting a whole day. +[831.00 --> 835.00] Instead of wasting an entire day having volunteers sit and tie water balloons. +[835.00 --> 838.00] You can just factor in how much people's time is worth. +[838.00 --> 840.00] It's a pretty good deal. +[840.00 --> 841.00] I think it's pretty cool. +[841.00 --> 844.00] And even if you're just a home resident, if it's really nice outside and you want to +[844.00 --> 847.00] go play with water balloons, instead of filling up water balloons for half an hour to an hour, +[847.00 --> 852.00] you can just be like, tie this thing on three or four times and then you're good to go. +[852.00 --> 853.00] Like, it's not that bad. +[853.00 --> 855.00] And it's already fitted to screw onto your hose. +[855.00 --> 857.00] So, it's super easy. +[857.00 --> 858.00] This is awesome. +[858.00 --> 862.00] This is a Kickstarter that I backed just so that when it doesn't arrive or when it's +[862.00 --> 867.00] a gigantic piece of crap, I can make a video about how stupid backing... +[867.00 --> 869.00] Isn't it not shipping to like 2016 or something? +[869.00 --> 872.00] End of the year, next year or something like that. +[872.00 --> 873.00] Okay. +[873.00 --> 874.00] I don't think I have sound. +[874.00 --> 875.00] I can't hear it anyway. +[875.00 --> 876.00] Hold on. +[876.00 --> 878.00] And somewhere in between is this guy. +[878.00 --> 881.00] Introducing Jibo, the world's first family robot. +[881.00 --> 882.00] Say hi, Jibo. +[882.00 --> 883.00] Hi, Jibo. +[883.00 --> 887.00] Jibo helps everyone out. +[887.00 --> 888.00] So that wasn't hard-coded. +[888.00 --> 890.00] He's the world's best cameraman. +[890.00 --> 896.00] By intelligently tracking the action around him, he can independently take video and photos, +[896.00 --> 900.00] so that you can put down your camera and be a part of the scene. +[900.00 --> 902.00] Jibo, take the picture. +[902.00 --> 905.00] Totally out of focus. +[905.00 --> 916.00] Anyway, the point is, if that manages to arrive in 2015, and if it has anywhere near the +[916.00 --> 919.00] level of interaction ability... +[919.00 --> 920.00] It's up on the table in that shot, isn't it? +[920.00 --> 921.00] Yeah. +[921.00 --> 922.00] So you have to like carry it around. +[922.00 --> 924.00] Yeah, you have to like move it around and stuff. +[924.00 --> 927.00] Like it's just, it's the kind of thing where it's like, um, it's like someone was watching +[927.00 --> 931.00] the Jetsons and they're just like, wow! +[931.00 --> 932.00] Let's do that! +[932.00 --> 933.00] Let's like... +[933.00 --> 934.00] Let's start an IndieGoGo. +[934.00 --> 939.00] Let's make the little like cleaner robot, except like stationary and sits on the table +[939.00 --> 940.00] and like... +[940.00 --> 941.00] Everyone in Twitch chat is like NSA Skynet. +[941.00 --> 944.00] Yeah, exactly right. +[944.00 --> 950.00] Alright, I just got an email from the owner of Swift Tech. +[950.00 --> 951.00] I didn't. +[951.00 --> 953.00] Well, whatever. +[953.00 --> 954.00] I'm cooler than you. +[954.00 --> 957.00] Uh, so I just got an email, but you're gonna like the scene... +[957.00 --> 959.00] Actually, I got two emails today that you're gonna be pretty stoked on. +[959.00 --> 960.00] Yes, it's about that. +[960.00 --> 961.00] Yeah! +[961.00 --> 964.00] So we have an exciting new project to announce. +[964.00 --> 970.00] We are going to be liquid cooling an entire room of computers on a single loop. +[970.00 --> 974.00] So we're gonna give you guys way more details in the coming weeks. +[974.00 --> 976.00] Um, but basically it's all coming together. +[976.00 --> 981.00] I've already got our sponsor confirmed for cases, power supplies, and uh, cause we, like +[981.00 --> 986.00] we want all the hardware to be somewhat similar, so we're not just Frankensteining every single +[986.00 --> 987.00] one of them as a one off. +[987.00 --> 988.00] For once. +[988.00 --> 990.00] So we're consolidating on a single case. +[990.00 --> 992.00] We're gonna be using a Cooler Master N600. +[992.00 --> 995.00] We're all gonna be using their V750 modular power supply. +[995.00 --> 997.00] So actually a really good power supply. +[997.00 --> 1002.00] Uh, HardOCP just did a review on the, uh, on the V series and validated what I was pretty +[1002.00 --> 1005.00] sure we already knew about them, but anyway, they had a review recently. +[1005.00 --> 1006.00] Anyway. +[1006.00 --> 1007.00] Um, so we're getting those. +[1007.00 --> 1010.00] Um, water cooling is now locked down. +[1010.00 --> 1016.00] So every machine will have an Apogee XL as well as a Swift-Tec's full cover with like the lighting +[1016.00 --> 1019.00] back-plated, uh, full cover block for an NVIDIA graphics card. +[1019.00 --> 1033.00] Uh, we are going to have radiators mounted to the systems on quick disconnects so that in the event that a system does have to be moved, we can disconnect it from the room-wide loop, connect it to its own rad, and move it without interrupting the rest of the machines. +[1033.00 --> 1038.00] Um, we are going to have the radiators mounted outside the building. +[1038.00 --> 1047.00] So the idea here is that because it's been so hot in the office, we will be able to take the heat out of the room with our liquid cooling. +[1047.00 --> 1052.00] Because contrary to what a lot of people think, water cooling doesn't make your room run cooler. +[1052.00 --> 1053.00] Okay? +[1053.00 --> 1054.00] Just dumps more heat in the room. +[1054.00 --> 1055.00] Yeah. +[1055.00 --> 1056.00] It dumps the same amount of heat in the room. +[1056.00 --> 1058.00] Basically, exactly the same. +[1058.00 --> 1061.00] I'll go with basically the same. +[1061.00 --> 1065.00] Basically, it's a very, very, very small rounding error. +[1065.00 --> 1066.00] So the point- +[1066.00 --> 1068.00] But I, I just can't say exactly. +[1068.00 --> 1074.00] The point is that removing it from the room is the only way to make your room actually cooler. +[1074.00 --> 1078.00] And when you have a bunch of people editing videos in a room, then that's like- +[1078.00 --> 1082.00] This is a solution for not buying, um, AC. +[1082.00 --> 1083.00] Air conditioning. +[1083.00 --> 1084.00] Yeah. +[1084.00 --> 1085.00] Okay. +[1085.00 --> 1090.00] So anyway, they're going to go to a series of radiators mounted outside the house and a reservoir that's going to sit in a bathtub. +[1090.00 --> 1092.00] It's like a five gallon reservoir. +[1092.00 --> 1093.00] Yeah. +[1093.00 --> 1094.00] We're going to have an industrial grade pump. +[1094.00 --> 1101.00] And then every system will actually have its own pump as well to help deal with the pressure drop as the water goes through all the components. +[1101.00 --> 1106.00] So we're not going to have any undue strain on any one part of the entire setup. +[1106.00 --> 1108.00] So every, yeah, every computer will have 655s. +[1108.00 --> 1110.00] So, so funny story- +[1110.00 --> 1111.00] Is that- +[1111.00 --> 1112.00] Yeah. +[1112.00 --> 1113.00] Yeah. +[1113.00 --> 1114.00] Yeah. +[1114.00 --> 1115.00] 655 pumps. +[1115.00 --> 1121.00] So funny story is I reached out to Nvidia because we were going to need cards that were compatible with the blocks. +[1121.00 --> 1128.00] And I asked them if it was okay for us to get 780s because we do use CUDA for a lot of our editing needs. +[1128.00 --> 1132.00] Uh, we do have a couple of 780s around here, but the problem is that they're non-reference. +[1132.00 --> 1136.00] And so the one that we have that's reference is the one that we use for our reference benchmarking. +[1136.00 --> 1140.00] And then the non-reference ones we have are not compatible with water cooling. +[1140.00 --> 1146.00] And if we were to take all the heat from the CPUs out of the room, that would help a little bit, but not enough to be worth a project like this. +[1146.00 --> 1149.00] You want to get that GPU heat out of the room. +[1149.00 --> 1151.00] I think just buying an air conditioning unit would be- +[1151.00 --> 1152.00] I think you're crazy. +[1152.00 --> 1157.00] Anyway, the point is that, um, I got an email back from them. +[1157.00 --> 1160.00] They kind of went, uh, I'm not sure about this project. +[1160.00 --> 1167.00] Um, I think that Titan Blacks would be more appropriate for something like workstation use in this manner. +[1167.00 --> 1171.00] So, uh, so apparently everyone's workstation is getting a Titan Black. +[1171.00 --> 1172.00] Do I get one too? +[1172.00 --> 1173.00] Uh, no. +[1173.00 --> 1174.00] Why? +[1174.00 --> 1175.00] Because you're not in that room. +[1175.00 --> 1176.00] Whatever. +[1176.00 --> 1177.00] You can request a transfer. +[1177.00 --> 1179.00] I'll have the CEO look at it personally. +[1179.00 --> 1182.00] My computer just straight up blue screened when I was working on it the other day. +[1182.00 --> 1185.00] I was like, damn my ghetto system. +[1185.00 --> 1187.00] Um, so, so that's happening. +[1187.00 --> 1188.00] That's cool. +[1188.00 --> 1193.00] So we're moving all of our editors to 6-core LGA 2011. +[1193.00 --> 1196.00] Um, not everyone has an extreme edition, I don't think. +[1196.00 --> 1198.00] And then to Titan Blacks. +[1198.00 --> 1199.00] That would be so epic. +[1199.00 --> 1200.00] For all the CUDA. +[1200.00 --> 1205.00] Taren will finally have a computer that can like, actually use other people's files properly and stuff. +[1205.00 --> 1207.00] I know, I know. +[1207.00 --> 1209.00] We have one of our editors on an AMD card. +[1209.00 --> 1210.00] Only one. +[1210.00 --> 1213.00] And there's nothing inherently bad about that. +[1213.00 --> 1217.00] It's just that the other guys are using plugins and tools that are CUDA tools. +[1217.00 --> 1218.00] CUDA, yeah. +[1218.00 --> 1219.00] Yeah. +[1219.00 --> 1222.00] And so when he goes to work on their stuff on his computer, it's just like bleh. +[1222.00 --> 1223.00] Or the other way around. +[1223.00 --> 1224.00] Yeah. +[1224.00 --> 1227.00] If the Nvidia card tries to open something that the AMD card was working on, it's bleh. +[1227.00 --> 1228.00] Every time. +[1228.00 --> 1230.00] It's, they, they don't really like using the same file sets. +[1230.00 --> 1235.00] So if anyone wants to ever work with something that he was working with or the other way around, it's, it's. +[1235.00 --> 1236.00] Yeah. +[1236.00 --> 1237.00] It's not good for the workflow. +[1237.00 --> 1238.00] It's terrible. +[1238.00 --> 1243.00] It's good to consolidate on one platform when you're trying to, when you're trying to share work between people. +[1243.00 --> 1244.00] Yeah. +[1244.00 --> 1247.00] Um, I'm just trying to think if there's anything else that I am forgetting. +[1247.00 --> 1249.00] Some people have been like, Luke, stop him. +[1249.00 --> 1251.00] I've told them many, many, many, many, many times. +[1251.00 --> 1252.00] Oh yeah. +[1252.00 --> 1253.00] We, we, we know this is crazy. +[1253.00 --> 1254.00] Oh yeah. +[1254.00 --> 1255.00] Hundred percent. +[1255.00 --> 1256.00] Yep. +[1256.00 --> 1261.00] I'm not certain that this is a crazy idea, but it's going to be freaking awesome. +[1261.00 --> 1262.00] It's going to be fun. +[1262.00 --> 1263.00] Yeah. +[1263.00 --> 1264.00] Yeah. +[1264.00 --> 1265.00] It's going to be fun. +[1265.00 --> 1266.00] We're going to do worst case scenario. +[1266.00 --> 1268.00] The whole room loop is a complete disaster. +[1268.00 --> 1272.00] The pipes blow off and the water's all over the place and we kind of go, Oh crap. +[1272.00 --> 1275.00] And then my dad didn't hard pipe the whole thing. +[1275.00 --> 1280.00] And then we, Hey, I've already thought about this. +[1280.00 --> 1281.00] We should do that. +[1281.00 --> 1282.00] I know. +[1282.00 --> 1283.00] We should just do that anyway. +[1283.00 --> 1284.00] Probably. +[1284.00 --> 1285.00] We could get a fatter line too. +[1285.00 --> 1286.00] Yeah. +[1286.00 --> 1288.00] How much would he charge for that? +[1288.00 --> 1289.00] I could ask him. +[1289.00 --> 1290.00] I don't know. +[1290.00 --> 1291.00] Yeah. +[1291.00 --> 1292.00] I know. +[1292.00 --> 1293.00] I'll ask him. +[1293.00 --> 1294.00] He's not back yet. +[1294.00 --> 1295.00] I was already going to talk to him. +[1295.00 --> 1296.00] Interesting. +[1296.00 --> 1301.00] Cause I think that'll solve like quite a few of the problems. +[1301.00 --> 1302.00] People are like, Luke, stop him. +[1302.00 --> 1305.00] But Luke's just trying to figure out how to take it to a whole new level of insanity. +[1305.00 --> 1306.00] Because you know, okay. +[1306.00 --> 1307.00] I've accepted that it's happening. +[1307.00 --> 1311.00] Now it's just, how can we make it even more ridiculous and cool? +[1311.00 --> 1312.00] Yeah. +[1312.00 --> 1315.00] Cause I was just going to like, I was just going to come up with some kind of like a wall mounting +[1315.00 --> 1317.00] bracket thing or something to run the tubing around. +[1317.00 --> 1319.00] But we could just put like roof hooks. +[1319.00 --> 1320.00] But that would be better. +[1320.00 --> 1322.00] Anyway, worst case scenario, we disconnect the whole room thing. +[1322.00 --> 1326.00] We give up and we go to each system being individually liquid cooled, which isn't that crazy. +[1326.00 --> 1327.00] No. +[1327.00 --> 1331.00] A D5 liquid cooled system with Swift Tech gear is not a problem. +[1331.00 --> 1332.00] No. +[1332.00 --> 1333.00] It's fine. +[1333.00 --> 1334.00] It would be fine. +[1334.00 --> 1335.00] Not a problem. +[1335.00 --> 1336.00] We'll just move the rads inside the case. +[1336.00 --> 1339.00] We should totally overclock the workstations. +[1339.00 --> 1341.00] You know we have to do it. +[1341.00 --> 1344.00] Once we don't have to worry about the heat dump into the room and we don't have to worry +[1344.00 --> 1345.00] about throttling. +[1345.00 --> 1349.00] Because the problem is that two of their systems are thermal throttling whenever we render. +[1349.00 --> 1351.00] That would be an interesting case for binning. +[1351.00 --> 1352.00] Yeah. +[1352.00 --> 1356.00] Because we could see, we could try to limit every system and then see which ones come +[1356.00 --> 1357.00] out like which. +[1357.00 --> 1360.00] I think we don't have enough of the same processor. +[1360.00 --> 1361.00] Not really. +[1361.00 --> 1362.00] Yeah. +[1362.00 --> 1365.00] Because we have like, I think we have like 13960X, 149 something. +[1365.00 --> 1366.00] Oh yeah. +[1366.00 --> 1367.00] So they'll be kind of all of this. +[1367.00 --> 1368.00] And then we have a K. +[1368.00 --> 1369.00] Yeah. +[1369.00 --> 1370.00] I think those are, those are the six cores we have. +[1370.00 --> 1371.00] So I don't know. +[1371.00 --> 1372.00] Right. +[1372.00 --> 1373.00] All right. +[1373.00 --> 1376.00] So yeah, we are, we are, we are. +[1376.00 --> 1377.00] This is going to be fun. +[1377.00 --> 1380.00] That way all the pipes could be copper even. +[1380.00 --> 1381.00] Yeah. +[1381.00 --> 1382.00] And that would just be so nice. +[1382.00 --> 1383.00] Yeah. +[1383.00 --> 1384.00] I don't know. +[1384.00 --> 1385.00] It would be pretty cool. +[1385.00 --> 1386.00] It would be badass. +[1386.00 --> 1387.00] So it's all of his pipes too. +[1387.00 --> 1388.00] Right. +[1388.00 --> 1389.00] So it would look awesome. +[1389.00 --> 1390.00] Yeah. +[1390.00 --> 1393.00] And like, it wouldn't like, we'd have to figure out how we want the, the fittings to +[1393.00 --> 1394.00] work to come out to the systems. +[1394.00 --> 1398.00] Cause I'd want to be able to move desks around if we really need to, you know, like if we +[1398.00 --> 1400.00] had like a, like a fitting system. +[1400.00 --> 1403.00] You could, you could T line every once in a while and then have it go to a flexible +[1403.00 --> 1404.00] pipe. +[1404.00 --> 1405.00] Okay. +[1405.00 --> 1406.00] We'll figure it out. +[1406.00 --> 1407.00] We'll figure it out. +[1407.00 --> 1411.00] So, uh, so yeah, we'll be, we'll be, we'll be overclocking the workstations, maybe just +[1411.00 --> 1412.00] a little bit, not a ton. +[1412.00 --> 1415.00] You don't want to overclock a workstation to the max, but, uh, yeah. +[1415.00 --> 1416.00] Yeah. +[1416.00 --> 1417.00] Anyway. +[1417.00 --> 1422.00] So the confirmations here, the fact that we've got cases, power supplies, uh, knocked to +[1422.00 --> 1423.00] us in already. +[1423.00 --> 1424.00] So, oh, right. +[1424.00 --> 1425.00] The outside fans will be there. +[1425.00 --> 1429.00] Uh, their water resistant fans, which totally makes sense. +[1429.00 --> 1430.00] Totally makes sense. +[1430.00 --> 1431.00] We actually came up with it. +[1431.00 --> 1434.00] It's funny because I teased them about it in the video. +[1434.00 --> 1436.00] I was like, why does anyone need a waterproof fan? +[1436.00 --> 1437.00] That's stupid. +[1437.00 --> 1438.00] Oh, wait, because we're doing something stupid. +[1438.00 --> 1444.00] Because we're going to hang quadruple rads off the fascia boards of the building and then +[1444.00 --> 1445.00] have fans behind them. +[1445.00 --> 1450.00] We're going to have those running off Swift Tech PWM splitters so that we can actually control +[1450.00 --> 1451.00] them if we really need to. +[1451.00 --> 1456.00] And then we're going to have, um, all those, I figure we'll probably run those rads all in +[1456.00 --> 1457.00] parallel. +[1457.00 --> 1460.00] Because otherwise you're going to get a lot of pressure drop from five quadruple rads +[1460.00 --> 1461.00] in a row. +[1461.00 --> 1462.00] So, yeah. +[1462.00 --> 1467.00] Our neighbor's just going to be like, what? +[1467.00 --> 1473.00] Our neighbor's like this super nice lady who's like super nice, but also pays a lot of attention +[1473.00 --> 1474.00] to our house. +[1474.00 --> 1475.00] She's a good neighbor. +[1475.00 --> 1480.00] Um, which means she'll notice that there's like stuff hanging off our house. +[1480.00 --> 1482.00] So epic. +[1482.00 --> 1484.00] So she'll probably ask us. +[1484.00 --> 1485.00] Yeah. +[1485.00 --> 1486.00] Yeah. +[1486.00 --> 1487.00] Yeah. +[1487.00 --> 1488.00] Super, super nice lady. +[1488.00 --> 1489.00] But she'll notice. +[1489.00 --> 1490.00] What are those weird loud things? +[1490.00 --> 1491.00] Yeah. +[1491.00 --> 1492.00] What the heck? +[1492.00 --> 1493.00] What are those? +[1493.00 --> 1495.00] Should I ask for 2,000 RPM or 3,000 RPM? +[1495.00 --> 1499.00] I mean, when we're talking about that much surface area, 2,000 RPM is probably fine, right? +[1499.00 --> 1503.00] On the other hand, 3,000 RPM is like a thousand more RPM. +[1503.00 --> 1504.00] Yeah. +[1504.00 --> 1505.00] We have those controllable splitters. +[1505.00 --> 1506.00] That's true. +[1506.00 --> 1507.00] So we could just pull it down. +[1507.00 --> 1508.00] We could. +[1508.00 --> 1512.00] We could just get a PWM fan controller and hook that up there. +[1512.00 --> 1513.00] Oh. +[1513.00 --> 1514.00] IGN has a delayed video launch. +[1514.00 --> 1515.00] Sorry. +[1515.00 --> 1518.00] It's really not too bad because it auto plays, but it auto plays after a while and it tells +[1518.00 --> 1519.00] you that it's going to do that. +[1519.00 --> 1521.00] So I don't hate this as much as Tweakdown. +[1521.00 --> 1522.00] Okay. +[1522.00 --> 1529.00] So this is like the biggest copycat ever because it wasn't that long ago that Linus Media Group +[1529.00 --> 1535.00] and Tech Syndicate and Austin Evans and New Egg TV, they went to the top of a mountain +[1535.00 --> 1536.00] to play a video game. +[1536.00 --> 1537.00] I literally can't even. +[1537.00 --> 1538.00] I literally can't even. +[1538.00 --> 1539.00] Sorry, what? +[1539.00 --> 1540.00] I literally can't even. +[1540.00 --> 1541.00] That's a thing. +[1541.00 --> 1543.00] I literally can't even. +[1543.00 --> 1549.00] So anyway, the point is Ubisoft announces a Far Cry 4 competition, Quest for Everest. +[1549.00 --> 1551.00] Oh my God, I keep signing me up. +[1551.00 --> 1552.00] What are you doing? +[1552.00 --> 1558.00] This is a 14-night sponsor-specified accommodation thing. +[1558.00 --> 1559.00] We should get John in. +[1559.00 --> 1560.00] Sorry? +[1560.00 --> 1561.00] What? +[1561.00 --> 1563.00] We should try and push to get John in. +[1563.00 --> 1564.00] To get John in? +[1564.00 --> 1565.00] That was the guy that came in. +[1565.00 --> 1566.00] Yeah, I know who John is. +[1566.00 --> 1567.00] Yeah. +[1567.00 --> 1570.00] I don't know if we'd be able to create a video entry that would be good enough to win it. +[1570.00 --> 1572.00] I mean, the grand prize is a 14-night. +[1572.00 --> 1577.00] I've only found one person who has a submission so far and they're not going to make it. +[1577.00 --> 1578.00] Really? +[1578.00 --> 1579.00] Yeah. +[1579.00 --> 1582.00] Okay, well it's a 14-night sponsor-specified accommodation thing. +[1582.00 --> 1586.00] You get a guided trek to the Mount Everest base camp. +[1586.00 --> 1588.00] To be clear, you will not be going to the summit. +[1588.00 --> 1592.00] I've seen a few different reporting sites and a lot of different people talking about, +[1592.00 --> 1595.00] Oh my God, going to the summit is impossible. +[1595.00 --> 1597.00] And no, it's to the base camp. +[1597.00 --> 1602.00] It's still going to be crazy, ridiculously ridiculous, but it's not to the summit. +[1602.00 --> 1606.00] So this is basically the success rate. +[1606.00 --> 1610.00] So how many summits and what the success rate was over the last however many years. +[1610.00 --> 1612.00] This is from National Geographic? +[1612.00 --> 1613.00] Yeah. +[1613.00 --> 1614.00] Yeah, National Geographic. +[1614.00 --> 1620.00] So you can see that if Ubisoft was trying to get a gamer to the top, and nothing against gamers. +[1620.00 --> 1621.00] I love gamers. +[1621.00 --> 1623.00] Gamers are good people. +[1623.00 --> 1630.00] But climbing Mount Everest is not something where being a good person is enough. +[1630.00 --> 1631.00] It's not about that. +[1631.00 --> 1632.00] It's about being in a- +[1632.00 --> 1634.00] You have such a good heart that you just like float to the top. +[1634.00 --> 1637.00] Yeah, it's about being in an amazing physical condition. +[1637.00 --> 1639.00] Like, this isn't the Grinch, man. +[1639.00 --> 1643.00] This isn't the little dog carries the sled to the top of the mountain like no big deal. +[1643.00 --> 1644.00] Yeah. +[1644.00 --> 1645.00] This is like serious stuff. +[1645.00 --> 1647.00] And you've got to train for it. +[1647.00 --> 1650.00] You've got to acclimate to the altitude. +[1650.00 --> 1657.00] You have to just have a physical disposition that is capable of handling it. +[1657.00 --> 1660.00] Like you might just be unlucky and can't do it. +[1660.00 --> 1661.00] And that's fine. +[1661.00 --> 1662.00] You're not a bad person. +[1662.00 --> 1665.00] You're just not able to summit Mount Everest. +[1665.00 --> 1666.00] So it's the base camp. +[1666.00 --> 1667.00] Which is like, that's fine. +[1667.00 --> 1673.00] Which I think some people who I've seen who have commented on, oh, it's just a base camp +[1673.00 --> 1674.00] that's like stupid. +[1674.00 --> 1675.00] No. +[1675.00 --> 1678.00] I think probably don't realize that base camp is still pretty intense. +[1678.00 --> 1681.00] Their base camp is incredibly high and it's like not that easy to get to. +[1681.00 --> 1686.00] And their base camp is more just like a grouping of tents, I believe. +[1686.00 --> 1689.00] Let me just find the elevation of the base camp. +[1689.00 --> 1691.00] It's still really, really high. +[1691.00 --> 1696.00] I think their base camp was considerably taller than the mountain that we climbed. +[1696.00 --> 1697.00] Yes. +[1697.00 --> 1698.00] Yeah. +[1698.00 --> 1701.00] So base camp is about 17 and a half thousand feet. +[1701.00 --> 1707.00] And then there's a north base camp in Tibet at just shy of 17,000 feet. +[1707.00 --> 1708.00] But you'll be, I'm so sure you'll be. +[1708.00 --> 1714.00] This is thousands of feet higher than we were when we did our Mount Elbert summit thing with +[1714.00 --> 1715.00] the land party. +[1715.00 --> 1716.00] Like it's nuts. +[1716.00 --> 1717.00] Yeah. +[1717.00 --> 1725.00] So basically the, the articles about this are like, yeah, they, they asked us to pass along +[1725.00 --> 1730.00] that there's an inherent risk of death and significant injury to persons and property +[1730.00 --> 1732.00] associated with the quest for Everest experience. +[1732.00 --> 1735.00] And by participating, Winner understands and assumes this risk. +[1735.00 --> 1739.00] And there's like tons of physical trials that you have to undergo before they'll even accept +[1739.00 --> 1740.00] you. +[1740.00 --> 1743.00] And if you don't pass the physical trials and they picked you, they'll just pick someone +[1743.00 --> 1744.00] else. +[1744.00 --> 1747.00] And then you're dropping all of your awards and all of your prizes and just picking someone +[1747.00 --> 1748.00] else. +[1748.00 --> 1751.00] Cause they're not going to deal with like having someone that isn't ready to go up. +[1751.00 --> 1753.00] This is something I actually wasn't even aware of. +[1753.00 --> 1754.00] This is crazy. +[1754.00 --> 1755.00] The overcrowding? +[1755.00 --> 1756.00] Yeah. +[1756.00 --> 1761.00] Apparently climbing Everest is like, like, it's become kind of nuts. +[1761.00 --> 1767.00] That's the reason why I wanted to show that original graphic of success rate because, um, +[1767.00 --> 1772.00] gear ability of Sherpas knowledge on the internet, all this kind of stuff has massively increased +[1772.00 --> 1777.00] your possibility of making it up, especially stuff like gear and technology and pre-run lines +[1777.00 --> 1781.00] and knowledge in general, like that the south path is a lot better to take than the north +[1781.00 --> 1783.00] path and a few other things like that. +[1783.00 --> 1785.00] But there's been massive overcrowding. +[1785.00 --> 1789.00] Um, people have brought up that of course there's better times to climb than others. +[1789.00 --> 1794.00] So these photos are probably taken during really good times to climb, but it doesn't get rid +[1794.00 --> 1800.00] of the fact that as of right now, a lot of people are making it to the top and these groups +[1800.00 --> 1801.00] are all going as once. +[1801.00 --> 1805.00] So you're going to be walking in this like conga line almost the whole way up walking +[1805.00 --> 1806.00] and climbing. +[1806.00 --> 1807.00] There's shots. +[1807.00 --> 1810.00] I don't think they're necessarily in here, even when there's like 10 to 20 people on +[1810.00 --> 1811.00] the same rope. +[1811.00 --> 1812.00] Yeah. +[1812.00 --> 1814.00] Going up the side. +[1814.00 --> 1820.00] And then there's a serious garbage issue where I think right now there's something in effect +[1820.00 --> 1825.00] where you have to come down with a minimum amount of garbage or else you get fined or +[1825.00 --> 1826.00] something. +[1826.00 --> 1827.00] Right. +[1827.00 --> 1829.00] And a lot of people are just paying the fine. +[1829.00 --> 1832.00] And there's just tons of garbage. +[1832.00 --> 1833.00] It's not good. +[1833.00 --> 1834.00] Really not good. +[1834.00 --> 1838.00] But yeah, I wanted to point that out because it's almost unfortunate timing that they're +[1838.00 --> 1842.00] bringing more attention to Everest right now because they're going through all these problems +[1842.00 --> 1845.00] of overcrowding and garbage issues and stuff like that. +[1845.00 --> 1848.00] There's even groups coming together where they climb part way up and just grab all the +[1848.00 --> 1850.00] garbage that they possibly can and then come back down. +[1850.00 --> 1851.00] Right. +[1851.00 --> 1854.00] Because they're trying to clean up the mountain because it's so bad. +[1854.00 --> 1856.00] It's like, wow. +[1856.00 --> 1857.00] Okay. +[1857.00 --> 1859.00] People just ruin everything, don't they? +[1859.00 --> 1860.00] All right. +[1860.00 --> 1864.00] Speaking of ruining everything, it's time to bring Barnacles onto the show. +[1864.00 --> 1871.00] So do you want to get him sort of arranged over there while I cover our rumor topic? +[1871.00 --> 1873.00] Dun dun dun! +[1873.00 --> 1876.00] This was originally posted by Tech Check. +[1876.00 --> 1882.00] And speaking of words whose spelling have nothing to do with how to pronounce them, check, like +[1882.00 --> 1883.00] really? +[1883.00 --> 1884.00] C-Z? +[1884.00 --> 1885.00] What's C-Z? +[1885.00 --> 1890.00] Apparently, I made a mistake in last night's or the night before's Tech Quickie video where +[1890.00 --> 1893.00] I pronounced Brisbane, Brisbane. +[1893.00 --> 1895.00] And for that, I am very sorry. +[1895.00 --> 1896.00] Is it not even spelled that way though? +[1896.00 --> 1897.00] No. +[1897.00 --> 1899.00] B-R-I-S-B-A-N-E or whatever. +[1899.00 --> 1900.00] Oh, okay. +[1900.00 --> 1901.00] Yeah. +[1901.00 --> 1904.00] It's spelled that way, but that's not how you say it. +[1904.00 --> 1910.00] And within moments of the video being up, there were comments about herder, lol, Linus +[1910.00 --> 1912.00] doesn't know how to pronounce Brisbane. +[1912.00 --> 1914.00] And my wife was like, what? +[1914.00 --> 1915.00] Really? +[1915.00 --> 1916.00] Even I knew that. +[1916.00 --> 1918.00] And you know how good I am at geography. +[1918.00 --> 1921.00] I'm like, yeah, okay, yeah, I made a mistake. +[1921.00 --> 1922.00] It's very funny. +[1922.00 --> 1924.00] So yes, my bad, you guys. +[1924.00 --> 1931.00] I'm very sorry to everyone who lives in India or wherever Brisbane is. +[1931.00 --> 1932.00] Just kidding. +[1932.00 --> 1933.00] Just kidding. +[1933.00 --> 1934.00] I know it's not in India. +[1934.00 --> 1939.00] So I'm very sorry to all of you down under and I apologize. +[1939.00 --> 1941.00] And can I help you with something? +[1941.00 --> 1942.00] I didn't have headphones. +[1942.00 --> 1947.00] Alright, I wanted to do a quick rumor topic before we bring on our large guest. +[1947.00 --> 1948.00] Here we go. +[1948.00 --> 1950.00] So this was originally posted by Tech Check. +[1950.00 --> 1953.00] And it is rumored that the GT- I'm getting a look from them right now. +[1953.00 --> 1959.00] It was rumored that the GTX 870 and 880 are coming in October. +[1959.00 --> 1963.00] It is rumored to be a GM204 chip, still a 28 nanometer chip. +[1963.00 --> 1964.00] Are you looking for a splitter? +[1964.00 --> 1965.00] Splitter. +[1965.00 --> 1966.00] Can I help you? +[1966.00 --> 1967.00] Yeah. +[1967.00 --> 1968.00] With finding a splitter? +[1968.00 --> 1969.00] Where's the splitter? +[1969.00 --> 1970.00] It's supposed to live right here. +[1970.00 --> 1972.00] You are splitting my patience. +[1972.00 --> 1974.00] I have no idea. +[1974.00 --> 1975.00] There should be one in that bin. +[1975.00 --> 1976.00] It's under here. +[1976.00 --> 1977.00] Oh, okay. +[1977.00 --> 1978.00] That's good. +[1978.00 --> 1979.00] Touch it with your feet some more. +[1979.00 --> 1982.00] You know, I don't have to plug my things into that. +[1982.00 --> 1984.00] You don't touch it when you plug it in. +[1984.00 --> 1985.00] Well, I could. +[1985.00 --> 1986.00] Or I could taste it. +[1986.00 --> 1987.00] No, I won't do that. +[1987.00 --> 1988.00] Okay. +[1988.00 --> 1989.00] Anyway, the point is- +[1989.00 --> 1991.00] I just did my phone soap thing. +[1991.00 --> 1992.00] Don't like that. +[1992.00 --> 1998.00] The size of the chip is estimated to be between GK104 and GK110, which makes sense. +[1998.00 --> 2001.00] I mean, GK104 was never really intended. +[2001.00 --> 2004.00] This is, again, all conspiracy theory. +[2004.00 --> 2008.00] NVIDIA has never confirmed this, but it was never seemed to be really intended to be a +[2008.00 --> 2009.00] truly high-end chip. +[2009.00 --> 2013.00] But GK110 was extremely large and very expensive. +[2013.00 --> 2017.00] So it's rumored to perform better than a 780 Ti. +[2017.00 --> 2023.00] The memory interface is rumored to be 256 bits, and it is rumored to consume less power +[2023.00 --> 2025.00] than 780 Ti. +[2025.00 --> 2030.00] And the memory capacity is rumored to be 8 gigabytes. +[2030.00 --> 2038.00] So that's quite the set of rumors there about gigabytes and bits. +[2038.00 --> 2040.00] Anyway, I don't have anything to say about that. +[2040.00 --> 2046.00] I haven't heard anything from NVIDIA at this time, so that's why I'm going ahead and commenting +[2046.00 --> 2047.00] on rumors. +[2047.00 --> 2051.00] Speaking of rumors, there's one rumor that I wasn't able to comment on not that long ago, +[2051.00 --> 2054.00] but of course now NVIDIA has unveiled. +[2054.00 --> 2060.00] Can't say anything about it because the review embargo has not passed yet. +[2060.00 --> 2065.00] I'm not even going to say when that is, but I will say I do have a Shield tablet, and I +[2065.00 --> 2067.00] don't even think I can say, like, it's great or anything. +[2067.00 --> 2068.00] I think all I can say is... +[2068.00 --> 2070.00] Were you allowed to show it on camera? +[2070.00 --> 2072.00] Well, they have pictures of it. +[2072.00 --> 2074.00] I didn't show anything that no one's ever seen before. +[2074.00 --> 2075.00] So, yeah. +[2075.00 --> 2077.00] I can't imagine we'll get in too much trouble. +[2077.00 --> 2078.00] I mean, what are they going to do? +[2078.00 --> 2080.00] Tell us we can't have our Titan Blacks? +[2080.00 --> 2081.00] They could do that. +[2081.00 --> 2082.00] Ooh. +[2082.00 --> 2083.00] Um... +[2083.00 --> 2084.00] All right, so... +[2084.00 --> 2085.00] That's never happened. +[2085.00 --> 2086.00] Continue on with the show. +[2086.00 --> 2089.00] Internet, please do not give us away. +[2089.00 --> 2091.00] Please do not give us away. +[2091.00 --> 2092.00] Oh. +[2092.00 --> 2094.00] And without further... +[2094.00 --> 2096.00] Whatever... +[2096.00 --> 2099.00] This guyyyyyyyyyyyy. +[2099.00 --> 2100.00] What's up, guys? +[2100.00 --> 2103.00] Hey, welcome to the show, Barnacles. +[2103.00 --> 2104.00] I'm back. +[2104.00 --> 2106.00] Did you hear the one about the guy who lost his job? +[2106.00 --> 2108.00] Oh, man. +[2108.00 --> 2109.00] Wow. +[2109.00 --> 2114.00] Guys, I about pissed myself when you said Barnacles edition with tears on the box. +[2114.00 --> 2116.00] I lost it. +[2116.00 --> 2117.00] Oh, my God. +[2117.00 --> 2118.00] How are you doing, man? +[2118.00 --> 2120.00] No, I'm hanging in there. +[2120.00 --> 2123.00] You know, life's going to change a whole lot, but... +[2123.00 --> 2124.00] Whoa, man, I'm moving around a lot. +[2124.00 --> 2125.00] Okay. +[2125.00 --> 2127.00] I'm doing all right, actually. +[2127.00 --> 2130.00] I wasn't doing so good a couple days ago, but I'm doing all right. +[2130.00 --> 2131.00] Here, I'm just gonna... +[2131.00 --> 2136.00] I want to position you correctly so you're kind of a reasonable size, so... +[2136.00 --> 2139.00] Well, okay, don't take that the wrong way. +[2139.00 --> 2141.00] I leave my job every, like, three days. +[2141.00 --> 2142.00] It's okay. +[2142.00 --> 2143.00] I've been on the internet for a while. +[2143.00 --> 2145.00] These fat joke things, I come to expect them. +[2145.00 --> 2146.00] I get worried when they go away, actually. +[2146.00 --> 2149.00] No, that wasn't even where I was going with that one. +[2149.00 --> 2150.00] It slipped out, you know? +[2150.00 --> 2151.00] I just... +[2151.00 --> 2153.00] You skitties are all alike. +[2153.00 --> 2154.00] Every one of you. +[2154.00 --> 2155.00] Hey! +[2155.00 --> 2157.00] So, tell me this. +[2157.00 --> 2158.00] What's the plan? +[2158.00 --> 2161.00] Well, the plan is, at this point, I've got time. +[2161.00 --> 2165.00] I've got enough resources saved up to get me through, you know, I can... +[2165.00 --> 2168.00] For about six months to a year, I'm thinking. +[2168.00 --> 2170.00] So, I'm gonna go ahead and try to be my own boss. +[2170.00 --> 2171.00] I'm gonna try to push the YouTube thing. +[2171.00 --> 2174.00] I'm gonna try to work on my gaming company, Opulent Studios. +[2174.00 --> 2176.00] Founded that with a bunch of friends. +[2176.00 --> 2177.00] Want to get that back off the ground. +[2177.00 --> 2179.00] And see where it takes me. +[2179.00 --> 2184.00] If the internet rejects me and doesn't lovers me, well, then I'll probably have to go back to the corporate empire. +[2184.00 --> 2187.00] So, that's the point. +[2187.00 --> 2188.00] That's the point. +[2188.00 --> 2191.00] So, you figure you've got a year worth of nest egg to develop, hey? +[2191.00 --> 2192.00] That's... +[2192.00 --> 2193.00] That's not bad. +[2193.00 --> 2194.00] That's very doable. +[2194.00 --> 2195.00] No, no. +[2195.00 --> 2196.00] That's not bad. +[2196.00 --> 2197.00] I mean, do you have enough to get some help? +[2197.00 --> 2206.00] Or would you be trying to one-man army it a la Marcus Brownlee or, you know, a lot of those guys who have shown that you can have great success on YouTube even without an entire crew? +[2206.00 --> 2210.00] Well, in the beginning, I'm gonna go it alone on the YouTube side. +[2210.00 --> 2212.00] But on the development side, I've actually got a crew. +[2212.00 --> 2216.00] I've got a graphics artist, another developer, and a PM that are all involved on the development side. +[2216.00 --> 2220.00] So, I'm kind of gonna be working two different projects in two different corporations. +[2220.00 --> 2225.00] The Barnacles nerdgasm thing will be just under me and the Opulent Studios will be under me and three other people. +[2225.00 --> 2230.00] So, but as far as bringing somebody in on YouTube, that's not something that I'm, like, against. +[2230.00 --> 2237.00] I mean, it's something that at some point I'm gonna have to do if it gets to the point where I need to create more than, say, like, one video a day, five days a week. +[2237.00 --> 2241.00] I mean, at some point, I've got to be able to go do something else other than make videos. +[2241.00 --> 2244.00] Yeah, you tell yourself that now. +[2244.00 --> 2246.00] I'm already feeling the pressure, too. +[2246.00 --> 2249.00] Let me tell you, not having a job to go to, it's hard to... +[2249.00 --> 2254.00] I used to be able to come home and justify it and be like, ah, you know, I'm kind of tired, and I'm just gonna tweet out I'm not gonna make a video. +[2254.00 --> 2255.00] It's fine. +[2255.00 --> 2259.00] Now I'm like, wow, I sat at home for eight hours, and I didn't make a video. +[2259.00 --> 2260.00] I didn't make a video. +[2260.00 --> 2268.00] And you know, the funny thing is, you go and you hire people to supposedly, you know, help you make more videos or reduce your workload, +[2268.00 --> 2274.00] and you just end up pouring it right back into production values or other projects or whatever else the case may be. +[2274.00 --> 2277.00] Like, every time I find a way to alleviate some of the pressure... +[2277.00 --> 2283.00] Like, this week, I had Nick, who's actually my sales guy, script an episode of Fast As Possible. +[2283.00 --> 2286.00] He did a great job. The Ambient Occlusion video is coming out this weekend or Monday. +[2286.00 --> 2292.00] And so I had him do that, and then I'm spending all of my time scripting a build guide. +[2292.00 --> 2295.00] So it's like, I'll just find some other massive project. +[2295.00 --> 2301.00] So the build guide was gonna be the build guide, and then I'm like, oh yeah, I've got a little bit more time to work on this. +[2301.00 --> 2308.00] I'm gonna go get some Plasti Dip, and I'm gonna, like, figure out ways to really make this one pop. +[2308.00 --> 2310.00] We're gonna take this build guide to the next level. +[2310.00 --> 2317.00] Yeah, no, I definitely get that. I'm gonna have the same problem, because I'm used to taking all of the revenue the channel's generated thus far, +[2317.00 --> 2323.00] and just dumping it back into camera equipment, lighting equipment, stuff for the cave, upgrades for the computers. +[2323.00 --> 2329.00] And now I've got to figure out how to, like, somehow leverage that to support my family at the same time, is still maintaining that. +[2329.00 --> 2332.00] So it's gonna be tricky. That's why I'm glad I have time to make it happen. +[2332.00 --> 2336.00] It's not gonna happen overnight. I'm probably gonna drift into the red before I drift into the black. +[2336.00 --> 2339.00] But, you know, I won't know unless I try, and it'll bug the hell out of me if I don't. +[2339.00 --> 2343.00] You know what I'll say that I hope is really encouraging? +[2343.00 --> 2352.00] Like, there have been exceptions. There have been the people who watched Linus Tech Tips before we, you know, sold out. +[2352.00 --> 2360.00] Which is always funny to me, because these days I have far less reason to care if someone buys the product that I review +[2360.00 --> 2367.00] than back when I worked at a company whose existence relied on people buying the products I was making videos about. +[2367.00 --> 2368.00] Yeah. +[2368.00 --> 2373.00] So if you trusted me then, you should probably trust me now, because it's not really any different. +[2373.00 --> 2378.00] It's certainly not any worse. But there were the people who watched back then and haven't liked it +[2378.00 --> 2383.00] since we started having to actually support ourselves and make a living off of this content. +[2383.00 --> 2392.00] But by and large, the vast, vast majority of our viewers of our audience never skipped a beat and have continued to support us, +[2392.00 --> 2395.00] no matter what it is we're doing, whether it's t-shirts or whatever else it is. +[2395.00 --> 2405.00] So I would venture, I would hazard a guess that if you asked your community to step up and help support you now that you don't have a day job, they will probably do it. +[2405.00 --> 2409.00] I'll agree with that. My community has been more supportive than I ever thought they would be. +[2409.00 --> 2413.00] And to be honest, the morning that I was laid off, it was a complete surprise to me. +[2414.00 --> 2417.00] You know, I was thinking about it and I was like, God, I need to go find another job. +[2417.00 --> 2420.00] I absolutely have to go find another job. That whole day, that's all I could think of. +[2420.00 --> 2427.00] And it wasn't until I saw the positive feedback that I got on Twitter, on Facebook, even on the comments on the video that I posted, I was surprised. +[2427.00 --> 2434.00] I mean, it's got a, it got like a hundred dislikes to 12 or 14,000 likes and I've never had that kind of ratio before. +[2434.00 --> 2436.00] So the community really knows how to come together. +[2436.00 --> 2441.00] And, you know, as long as you're straight with them and you let them know what's going on, it seems like they're, they're cool with it. +[2441.00 --> 2446.00] You're always going to have the trolls, no matter what, you're always going to have the trolls that come out and say, Oh my God, you're a sellout. +[2446.00 --> 2449.00] You're doing this. Oh, you've changed. Oh, I don't like what you're doing now. +[2449.00 --> 2453.00] That's, but that's always been there before I made it a career, you know? +[2453.00 --> 2458.00] So I still expect that to be there, but by and large, I think the community is going to back me up. +[2458.00 --> 2459.00] If they enjoy what I do, I'm going to keep doing it. +[2459.00 --> 2464.00] And if they, if they decide they don't enjoy it anymore and the community starts to go away, well, then that's my sign. +[2464.00 --> 2468.00] I probably shouldn't be in this business and I should go actually get a job, you know? +[2468.00 --> 2477.00] Yep. A hundred percent agree. And I mean, I I've, I've messaged you privately saying, I think you're doing a great job in terms of developing your style, developing your delivery. +[2477.00 --> 2485.00] Um, I think I gave you some feedback that wasn't quite as positive, but, uh, it was, it changed my direction a little bit though. +[2485.00 --> 2489.00] If you notice my videos aren't 30 minutes long anymore. +[2489.00 --> 2498.00] And you know, what's funny about it is no matter what, and, and you can listen to me or you can listen to someone else or whatever else, everyone's going to have a different idea for how you can run it. +[2498.00 --> 2507.00] So if there's any advice that I can give you right now, it's tune out the advice, unless you really truly believe in your heart of hearts, that it's exactly what you need to be doing. +[2507.00 --> 2510.00] Cause otherwise you'll go in a thousand different directions and you'll be spread so thin. +[2510.00 --> 2512.00] It has to be his own channel too. +[2512.00 --> 2515.00] Well, the nice thing about me is I've got the ADHD thing going on for me. +[2515.00 --> 2519.00] So it's like all this advice pours in and just little pieces stick here and there and here and there. +[2519.00 --> 2521.00] And I'm only capable of doing what I'm capable of doing. +[2521.00 --> 2523.00] So that's, it's ultimately going to solve itself. +[2523.00 --> 2527.00] Honestly, my first thought when I heard was his YouTube channel is actually pretty big. +[2527.00 --> 2529.00] He can actually probably do this. +[2529.00 --> 2530.00] Yep. +[2530.00 --> 2531.00] I was actually pretty excited at the same time. +[2531.00 --> 2534.00] When we went indie, we were three people. +[2534.00 --> 2542.00] I had to support three people and we had around 250,000 subscribers and we were doing around 160,000 to 180,000 views a day. +[2542.00 --> 2546.00] So you have to support one person on a subscriber number. +[2546.00 --> 2550.00] That's, I don't know, whatever, two thirds, math's not my strong point. +[2550.00 --> 2555.00] And view numbers that are in the sort of third-ish and maybe a little bit less range. +[2555.00 --> 2557.00] You can do it for sure. +[2557.00 --> 2558.00] Yeah. Yeah. +[2558.00 --> 2560.00] And I'm trying to go in a unique direction with my channel. +[2560.00 --> 2561.00] Like you guys know, it's been all over the map. +[2561.00 --> 2564.00] I mean, you can find videos on how to put brakes on your car on my channel. +[2564.00 --> 2568.00] I mean, they're there if you look for them, but realistically, I'm going to stick with the 3D printing stuff. +[2568.00 --> 2570.00] I'm going to get heavily into development though. +[2570.00 --> 2572.00] And that's a territory I haven't done before. +[2572.00 --> 2573.00] Cause I want to keep my development skills sharp. +[2573.00 --> 2578.00] I've been programming for 15 years and now I don't have a job to go and program every day. +[2578.00 --> 2583.00] So I'm going to be working on games of opulent studios, but I'm also planning on doing a series of videos where I actually show people how to program. +[2583.00 --> 2588.00] I'm going to start with a simple high level language like C sharp and show them how to write some cool little tools and utilities. +[2588.00 --> 2592.00] And I think that that'll be kind of fun because I'm not going to go the conventional route of, oh, here's a tutorial. +[2592.00 --> 2594.00] Watch me type in some stuff. +[2594.00 --> 2599.00] I'm actually going to make it kind of funny and really screw around a whole bunch and try to try to captivate people and keep their attention. +[2599.00 --> 2604.00] And the other thing is I, the reason a lot of people think that I, I over ham it up in my videos. +[2604.00 --> 2606.00] I get this. They're like, man, you're trying to be funny. +[2606.00 --> 2609.00] Then you've got to realize I am the slowest editor on earth. +[2609.00 --> 2613.00] And the only way I can make it through three hours of editing is if I'm laughing at myself. +[2613.00 --> 2622.00] So I, I intentionally ham it up so that when I'm editing the video, I'm sitting here at certain parts, pissing myself going, I really shouldn't leave that in there, but I'm going to, cause it made me laugh. +[2622.00 --> 2626.00] Or I'll cut it out entirely, even though it made me laugh, but it keeps me entertained. And that's what gets me through it. +[2626.00 --> 2631.00] When I did the boring, like unboxings, just open it. Like, Hey guys, here's what this is kind of cool. And everything. +[2631.00 --> 2636.00] I had a really hard time editing that stuff. It wasn't until I started just kind of playing around a little bit that I, I had fun with it. +[2636.00 --> 2640.00] And then, then, then you kind of see that come out in the video. You're like, Oh, you actually had fun making this. +[2640.00 --> 2646.00] If you make fun, entertaining programming videos, that would actually be pretty cool. +[2646.00 --> 2651.00] I know if you've ever seen a fun programming video, there's never, that's what I could find was. +[2651.00 --> 2661.00] Ah, the new Boston or something. And he's like, every once in a blue moon, there's like a slightly edgy comment that might make you chuckle. +[2661.00 --> 2666.00] That's like the, the, the most entertaining programming videos I've pretty much ever found. +[2666.00 --> 2670.00] So if you can find something that actually makes me laugh and teaches me how to program, that would be really cool. +[2670.00 --> 2676.00] Okay. So, so envision this. What if I did a video where it was like Bob Ross, you know, with like the push and here's the little tree. +[2676.00 --> 2680.00] I'm going to be like, here's the little variable. And then I just keep going back to it. I'm like, here's this variable again. +[2680.00 --> 2683.00] We're going to put a little symbol next to him. See, it makes them look cool. +[2683.00 --> 2688.00] I think that's pretty funny. We're learning. It's a happy accident. +[2688.00 --> 2691.00] Oh my God. Yeah, no, but I'm going to try, I'm going to try things out. I'm going to take risks. +[2691.00 --> 2697.00] Like I said, I had time. If I didn't have time. And just to clarify, a lot of people think I'm taking a huge risk here for my family. +[2697.00 --> 2702.00] Cause my son needs a lot of therapy. Realize I am not going to let my resources get exhausted. +[2702.00 --> 2708.00] I will go back to an it job long before I'm in trouble. I'm not going to push this to the last minute and go, Oh crap. +[2708.00 --> 2712.00] I screwed up. Let's go live under a bridge. Ain't going to happen. Yeah. +[2712.00 --> 2724.00] All right. So speaking of screwing up and living under a bridge, um, if you steal in game items, one British MP, this was posted by Johners on the forum. +[2724.00 --> 2737.00] One British MP thinks that you should go to jail or P find or community service or whatever real world consequences exist for real world crimes. +[2737.00 --> 2742.00] He wants to see that happen to people who, uh, who steal things digitally. +[2742.00 --> 2752.00] And we're not talking steal digitally, like what we're always hearing about stealing movies, stealing music, stealing windows, +[2752.00 --> 2757.00] which you don't have to care about anymore. Um, no, +[2757.00 --> 2759.00] actually I would care about it more than ever. +[2759.00 --> 2765.00] We're talking stealing swords, like, like in game items and stuff like that. +[2765.00 --> 2771.00] And not like, Oh, he ninja looted it. He picked it up off the ground before I could, or he like need rolled it when he didn't actually need it. +[2771.00 --> 2776.00] Or hold on. You got to realize swords and games to some of these guys are like real items. +[2776.00 --> 2778.00] Yeah. Yes, they are. +[2778.00 --> 2781.00] Like I, I know, I know I have a friend who plays world of Warcraft and seriously, +[2781.00 --> 2785.00] the, the way I see him scream in pain when something bad happens in that game, +[2785.00 --> 2789.00] it's like, you might as well be like stealing his real stuff and like breaking his house and beating him with it. +[2789.00 --> 2793.00] You know? And the thing about it is, and this is, this is something like for me personally, +[2793.00 --> 2796.00] in game items are not something I've spent a ton of money on over the years. +[2796.00 --> 2799.00] This is a fairly interesting thing. I'm going to interject before you can keep going. +[2799.00 --> 2805.00] You can buy a Karambit in real life for cheaper than you can buy a Karambit in Counter-Strike. +[2805.00 --> 2807.00] Wow, that's screwed up. +[2807.00 --> 2809.00] Okay. +[2809.00 --> 2811.00] So, originally, +[2811.00 --> 2813.00] I'm selling them. +[2813.00 --> 2818.00] Originally, Johnner's post on the forum was kind of mocking this as if, you know, ha ha ha, it's not real stuff. +[2818.00 --> 2829.00] And as someone who, who doesn't spend a lot of money on in-game or digital items, I kind of, my initial knee-jerk reaction was, +[2829.00 --> 2840.00] what, really? Go to jail for, you know, like, like get charged with grand theft for stealing $5,000 worth of, you know, boots in Diablo or whatever the case may be? +[2840.00 --> 2845.00] And then I kind of stopped and thought about it for a second because is, is, is a digital currency? +[2845.00 --> 2850.00] And we could just, let's just call in-game items. Let's call Team Fortress 2 Hats a digital currency. +[2850.00 --> 2851.00] Are they not? +[2851.00 --> 2857.00] Anything that can be converted to and from another currency and can be traded for goods and services between people is kind of a currency. +[2857.00 --> 2870.00] So, is stealing digital currency that someone worked for, and if that work was farming gold or if that work was, you know, sitting at their desk trading stocks, is that any different? +[2870.00 --> 2873.00] Is that currency any different from, from money? +[2873.00 --> 2875.00] And I kind of started thinking about it going, well, shit. +[2875.00 --> 2880.00] $5,000 of in-game boots is still $5,000. +[2880.00 --> 2881.00] And that's still got stolen. +[2881.00 --> 2883.00] I think this is a huge step in the right direction. +[2883.00 --> 2885.00] So, sorry, I'm all done with my thoughts. +[2885.00 --> 2886.00] Yours. +[2886.00 --> 2888.00] No, I, I agree. +[2888.00 --> 2889.00] I agree. +[2889.00 --> 2891.00] I think, you know, I think people take that stuff very, very seriously. +[2891.00 --> 2897.00] And it's one thing to get your items stolen in-game if you put yourself in harm's way, but to have hacking involved to take it. +[2897.00 --> 2900.00] I mean, I really don't look at it any different than hacking a bank account and taking money out. +[2900.00 --> 2902.00] I mean, you're definitely taking away something somebody worked for. +[2902.00 --> 2903.00] Yeah. +[2903.00 --> 2907.00] And we're not talking like you board their ship and you gank it. +[2907.00 --> 2908.00] Right, right, right. +[2908.00 --> 2909.00] We're talking like... +[2909.00 --> 2914.00] You board their 1011 port and send some, an UUB packet and like knock it over and steal all their crap. +[2914.00 --> 2915.00] Yeah. +[2915.00 --> 2916.00] It's bad. +[2917.00 --> 2918.00] I meant yoink. +[2918.00 --> 2919.00] I said gank. +[2919.00 --> 2920.00] I don't know how that slipped out. +[2920.00 --> 2921.00] Yoink their shit? +[2921.00 --> 2922.00] Yeah. +[2922.00 --> 2923.00] Oh, see... +[2923.00 --> 2924.00] Whatever. +[2924.00 --> 2927.00] Like I was, I was going for the Simpsons thing and I was completely... +[2927.00 --> 2928.00] Gank kinda works. +[2928.00 --> 2929.00] That kind of works, but... +[2929.00 --> 2930.00] Not fully. +[2930.00 --> 2932.00] What I meant to say was yoink and I have no idea how that works. +[2932.00 --> 2935.00] We all kinda let it slide because you're not that much of a gamer anyways. +[2935.00 --> 2936.00] Because we were like, ahhh. +[2936.00 --> 2937.00] Wow. +[2937.00 --> 2938.00] Wow. +[2938.00 --> 2939.00] Wow. +[2939.00 --> 2942.00] You know what's funny is I can't, I can't beat the last level of Bioshock Infinite. +[2942.00 --> 2944.00] But you can't beat it on a shield. +[2944.00 --> 2947.00] No, I tried it on my computer last night. +[2947.00 --> 2948.00] I'm only a quarter of the way through. +[2948.00 --> 2951.00] I really need to finish that now that I actually like have time. +[2951.00 --> 2952.00] And you know what? +[2952.00 --> 2954.00] I'm more of a gamer these days than you give me credit for. +[2954.00 --> 2957.00] I actually game a fair bit on Nvidia Shield. +[2957.00 --> 2959.00] I played Bioshock Infinite. +[2959.00 --> 2962.00] That's the most recent game that I've played in a long time. +[2962.00 --> 2965.00] I'm more of a gamer these days than you give me credit for. +[2965.00 --> 2968.00] I played Bioshock Infinite, that's the most recent game I've played. +[2968.00 --> 2969.00] I started Limbo. +[2969.00 --> 2970.00] And he played it for like 5 minutes. +[2970.00 --> 2972.00] He started Limbo! +[2972.00 --> 2974.00] I'm almost done Super Meat Boy. +[2974.00 --> 2977.00] When are the release dates of all these games? +[2977.00 --> 2978.00] I don't care. +[2978.00 --> 2980.00] Not that that really matters, to be completely honest. +[2980.00 --> 2981.00] I hate you. +[2981.00 --> 2984.00] Anyway, the point is, do you have anything to add to the in-game items thing? +[2984.00 --> 2985.00] No, I think it's awesome. +[2985.00 --> 2988.00] I've seen a whole bunch of stuff like this happen. +[2988.00 --> 2990.00] I know people that have had their accounts hacked. +[2990.00 --> 2991.00] I've had my account hacked. +[2991.00 --> 2994.00] I've had my account hacked and all my games stolen from Origin. +[2994.00 --> 2996.00] It was a nightmare to get it all back. +[2996.00 --> 2997.00] It took me like a week. +[2997.00 --> 3000.00] At one point in time, my character in WoW was worth a lot of money. +[3000.00 --> 3006.00] And my WoW account got hacked like many times, despite doing many precautions. +[3006.00 --> 3008.00] It doesn't really seem to matter. +[3008.00 --> 3011.00] Alright, so let's move on to the next thing. +[3011.00 --> 3018.00] Valve had this controller idea that was like revolutionary and groundbreaking. +[3018.00 --> 3020.00] We were going to have touchpads. +[3020.00 --> 3023.00] Oh, I thought we were all going to do it now. +[3023.00 --> 3025.00] Barnacles was doing it and then... +[3025.00 --> 3028.00] Are we going for this? +[3028.00 --> 3029.00] What are we doing? +[3029.00 --> 3030.00] I'm confused. +[3030.00 --> 3031.00] What kind of show is this? +[3031.00 --> 3032.00] I don't know. +[3032.00 --> 3036.00] The point is, Valve had this innovative controller idea with touchpads. +[3036.00 --> 3038.00] And I kind of looked at it and I went, +[3038.00 --> 3039.00] Okay. +[3039.00 --> 3040.00] That's cool in theory. +[3040.00 --> 3042.00] Let's see how this pans out. +[3042.00 --> 3049.00] And I swear, every single revision to the Steam controller makes it closer and closer and closer to this. +[3049.00 --> 3052.00] Which is the Shield controller. +[3052.00 --> 3055.00] And I'm not saying that Valve was copying something that didn't exist yet. +[3055.00 --> 3060.00] I'm saying that the Shield controller is not really inherently any different from an Xbox 360 controller. +[3060.00 --> 3064.00] And so the closer it gets, the less innovative it is. +[3064.00 --> 3068.00] And I just have to wonder if there's any point in them even continuing to develop this thing. +[3068.00 --> 3071.00] If it's just eventually going to get rid of the touchpads even? +[3071.00 --> 3074.00] Yeah, so the latest iteration... +[3074.00 --> 3077.00] Here, sorry, I'm making Barnacles go away for a bit here. +[3077.00 --> 3078.00] Sorry, sorry. +[3078.00 --> 3080.00] We've got a couple shoulder buttons. +[3080.00 --> 3082.00] We have a touchpad. +[3082.00 --> 3084.00] There's those back buttons. +[3084.00 --> 3086.00] Basically, everything's the same. +[3086.00 --> 3088.00] They changed one of the directional pads with the joystick. +[3088.00 --> 3092.00] Yes, so we've got a joystick and ABXY now. +[3092.00 --> 3094.00] Which originally was not the case. +[3094.00 --> 3098.00] I personally am starting to kind of like it. +[3098.00 --> 3106.00] But I'm not a huge fan of both analog sticks being on the bottom. +[3106.00 --> 3109.00] I'd prefer to have a D-pad here and an analog stick up here. +[3109.00 --> 3110.00] Your thoughts? +[3110.00 --> 3112.00] As I know how I hold it, I like having my analog stick... +[3112.00 --> 3114.00] Be careful where you go with this sentence. +[3114.00 --> 3120.00] I like having my analog stick on the top of the left side. +[3120.00 --> 3124.00] Because I kind of like push it into my left hand, which makes my left hand go up a little bit. +[3124.00 --> 3126.00] It's just because I've used an Xbox 360 controller for so long. +[3126.00 --> 3127.00] Yeah. +[3127.00 --> 3128.00] So I like it being up there. +[3128.00 --> 3131.00] So this is still going to bug me unless I just use that touchpad all the time. +[3131.00 --> 3132.00] Right. +[3132.00 --> 3135.00] But then why would I use this controller? +[3135.00 --> 3136.00] Jerry touchpads. +[3136.00 --> 3137.00] I didn't know. +[3137.00 --> 3138.00] Touchpads on game controllers. +[3138.00 --> 3141.00] Honestly, I thought it was really cool when they first did it. +[3141.00 --> 3143.00] And then I was like, nah, this isn't going to work. +[3143.00 --> 3145.00] Because you don't have that precision. +[3145.00 --> 3149.00] You just get used to using the thumb stick after so long. +[3149.00 --> 3157.00] And when you pick up a controller, it's just having something you have to constantly keep picking your finger up and moving it back and dragging around and stuff would drive me absolutely crazy. +[3157.00 --> 3159.00] Well, they demoed playing Portal. +[3159.00 --> 3165.00] But then if you watch that demo, they weren't doing anything particularly complicated. +[3165.00 --> 3170.00] I maintain that the only games that really makes a ton of sense for is stuff like Civ. +[3170.00 --> 3171.00] And if it was going to be... +[3171.00 --> 3176.00] Where it's like turn-based, kind of slow, where you can kind of sweep around and there's probably more things on screen. +[3176.00 --> 3182.00] And if you were going to play Civ anyway, wouldn't you just get like a TV dinner stand and like a ducky mini? +[3182.00 --> 3183.00] That would be much better. +[3183.00 --> 3184.00] And a mouse? +[3184.00 --> 3185.00] That would be much better. +[3185.00 --> 3187.00] It really depends how the games are developed. +[3187.00 --> 3191.00] But honestly, games are going to be developed either for a keyboard-mouse experience or for a controller experience. +[3191.00 --> 3198.00] I mean, until they start specifically making game profiles that like suit thumb touchpads, it's going to feel awkward. +[3198.00 --> 3201.00] And my thing is that the original design catered to... +[3201.00 --> 3203.00] They're adding something to the market. +[3203.00 --> 3206.00] So hopefully more games could be played in this situation. +[3206.00 --> 3215.00] And now they're moving away from that to the point where before I was like, okay, maybe I could have this controller for those couple games where it makes a ton of sense. +[3215.00 --> 3220.00] And now I'm like, no, I'll just probably stick to a 360 style controller and be fine. +[3220.00 --> 3222.00] Yeah, I think what it comes down to is just what people are used to. +[3222.00 --> 3228.00] I mean, you've been using the 360 controller and that style of controller for so long that it's going to be really hard to change over. +[3228.00 --> 3229.00] It's just like keyboards, right? +[3229.00 --> 3232.00] We all use the standard layout. +[3232.00 --> 3233.00] We don't use Dvorak. +[3233.00 --> 3237.00] You know, some people do, but it's like who wants to memorize a whole new format just to be a little bit faster. +[3237.00 --> 3244.00] I switched to Dvorak actually, and I loved it, but it was a serious issue every single time I'd use someone else's computer. +[3244.00 --> 3245.00] I bet. +[3245.00 --> 3251.00] And that's what ended up making me drop it actually, because when I switched, I wasn't working. +[3251.00 --> 3253.00] I was just going to school. +[3253.00 --> 3255.00] And then when I started working again, I was in an IT shop. +[3255.00 --> 3260.00] So people's computers would come in and I had to work on tons of different people's computers all the time. +[3260.00 --> 3261.00] And it just drove me nuts. +[3261.00 --> 3263.00] I couldn't memorize both different layers. +[3263.00 --> 3264.00] Yeah. +[3264.00 --> 3267.00] That's the problem with deviating from standards is you're on your own, right? +[3267.00 --> 3269.00] I mean, once you do that, you're carrying your own keyboard everywhere. +[3269.00 --> 3270.00] Yeah. +[3270.00 --> 3273.00] If I only ever used my own keyboards, it would be fine. +[3273.00 --> 3277.00] We had an intern once who brought his own keyboard to work every day. +[3277.00 --> 3279.00] That's a hardcore intern right there. +[3279.00 --> 3282.00] And he had a plastic cover for it that kept it dustproofed and everything. +[3282.00 --> 3283.00] It was fantastic. +[3283.00 --> 3284.00] He was badass. +[3284.00 --> 3285.00] He didn't care about the mouse. +[3285.00 --> 3286.00] Nope. +[3286.00 --> 3287.00] Well, every computer I had at work was a mechanical keyboard. +[3287.00 --> 3293.00] I bought mechanical keyboards for my two offices and my two workstations because I just couldn't stand those little membrane keyboards anymore. +[3293.00 --> 3296.00] I have my own mechanical keyboards on all my stations now. +[3296.00 --> 3300.00] Which is bizarre because we have so many mechanical keyboards here. +[3300.00 --> 3301.00] Don't let me use any of them. +[3301.00 --> 3302.00] Well, then you'll ruin them. +[3302.00 --> 3303.00] You'll get them all my employees. +[3303.00 --> 3304.00] It's a good investment for the workplace. +[3304.00 --> 3309.00] It's a really good investment for the workplace because you can tell if people are working with mechanical keyboards. +[3309.00 --> 3310.00] Because you can just kind of listen. +[3310.00 --> 3311.00] It's like... +[3311.00 --> 3314.00] That's a good point. +[3314.00 --> 3316.00] All right. +[3316.00 --> 3318.00] Everything else for Jill Cavs. +[3318.00 --> 3322.00] Speaking of not being sure if anyone's working, the hard drive industry. +[3322.00 --> 3327.00] So we first got four terabyte hard drives back in late 2011. +[3327.00 --> 3334.00] And if you guys remember, leading up to that, we were getting new hard drive capacities like, what, every six months? +[3334.00 --> 3339.00] We went from 320 to 640 to 500, 750s and one terabytes. +[3339.00 --> 3344.00] And then we got one and a half terabytes, two terabytes, three terabytes, four terabytes, and then nothing! +[3344.00 --> 3348.00] I still remember being at PAX having to explain to everybody what a terabyte was. +[3348.00 --> 3349.00] Well, don't forget the six. +[3349.00 --> 3350.00] Don't forget the six that was at Samsung. +[3350.00 --> 3351.00] I think Samsung made a six. +[3351.00 --> 3352.00] Was it Seagate or Samsung? +[3352.00 --> 3353.00] I can't remember. +[3353.00 --> 3354.00] I can't remember. +[3354.00 --> 3355.00] I can't remember. +[3355.00 --> 3356.00] Someone did. +[3356.00 --> 3361.00] But the point is, we're finally seeing a big move all of a sudden. +[3361.00 --> 3369.00] WD just released a red six terabyte, and then they went ahead and validated it for up to eight of them in a single enclosure. +[3369.00 --> 3376.00] So we're talking 48 terabytes in a single eight bay enclosure, which is freaking unreal. +[3376.00 --> 3381.00] And Seagate is apparently sampling eight and ten terabyte hard drives. +[3381.00 --> 3384.00] So the original article is from DSL.SK. +[3384.00 --> 3389.00] This is not like to end users or anything, but let's just have a brief discussion. +[3389.00 --> 3392.00] What would you do with ten terabyte hard drives? +[3392.00 --> 3395.00] I'd just back up the internet. +[3395.00 --> 3398.00] I'd just back the whole thing up and then cancel my internet subscription, save some money. +[3398.00 --> 3399.00] That's what I'd do. +[3399.00 --> 3401.00] I guess you need to now, because... +[3401.00 --> 3402.00] Oh, wow. +[3402.00 --> 3403.00] You're a terrible person. +[3403.00 --> 3412.00] I can see a lot of people buying two drives and raid wanting them instead of a huge set and raid wanting the queue. +[3412.00 --> 3413.00] That's exactly what I'd do. +[3413.00 --> 3414.00] So you could streamline them. +[3414.00 --> 3416.00] You don't need massive hard drive arrays as hardcore. +[3416.00 --> 3420.00] You won't need this full tower just because you want a lot of hard drives. +[3420.00 --> 3421.00] Yeah. +[3421.00 --> 3425.00] Well, my NAS setup is three external drive arrays that each hold four drives. +[3425.00 --> 3428.00] So I could have a total of 12 of those ten terabytes. +[3428.00 --> 3429.00] That'd be awesome. +[3429.00 --> 3430.00] That'd be absolutely awesome. +[3430.00 --> 3438.00] You know what's funny is I used to just kind of crave more storage and I was always trying to add more storage. +[3438.00 --> 3445.00] Like, I got Windows Home Server v1, a project which I was super sad got just completely destroyed. +[3445.00 --> 3446.00] You and me both. +[3446.00 --> 3447.00] You and me both. +[3447.00 --> 3450.00] I still run 2011 and I'm pissed off that they took out all the drive pool capability. +[3450.00 --> 3451.00] Yeah. +[3451.00 --> 3455.00] So drive pool was super cool and I would just add drives and add drives and add drives. +[3455.00 --> 3461.00] And then I moved to 2011 and I finally went with a proper raid because that's what you have to do now. +[3461.00 --> 3462.00] Yeah. +[3462.00 --> 3469.00] And I built like a big fat raid and then I expanded it and that ended up being the server that now lives at our office and we use for that. +[3469.00 --> 3479.00] And when I had to move something back to my house because I now had no NAS, what I realized was my personal data was only taking up about three and a half terabytes on it. +[3479.00 --> 3481.00] I don't even know what people can. +[3481.00 --> 3484.00] And that's mine, my wife's like we only have SSDs in our computers. +[3484.00 --> 3488.00] So that's all the mass storage for everyone in my house. +[3488.00 --> 3490.00] I can't figure out what people are putting on their NASes. +[3490.00 --> 3491.00] I have a lot of data. +[3491.00 --> 3492.00] I have a lot more than that. +[3492.00 --> 3493.00] Yeah. +[3493.00 --> 3494.00] For me, it's the raw image stuff. +[3494.00 --> 3501.00] Like when I do photography in my family and stuff, like a single raw image I have can be 65 megabytes for just like one raw image. +[3501.00 --> 3506.00] I back up a lot of the work I've done here on my own NAS. +[3506.00 --> 3511.00] I back up like all my school stuff I've ever done all images game. +[3511.00 --> 3516.00] I keep game installation files for old games where you'd like need the CD. +[3516.00 --> 3520.00] Now, if it's not on Steam, essentially, those aren't that big. +[3520.00 --> 3522.00] We're talking 650 meg files. +[3522.00 --> 3524.00] We're talking 10 Barnacles photos. +[3524.00 --> 3525.00] I have a lot. +[3525.00 --> 3526.00] Right. +[3526.00 --> 3530.00] And like, I'll be honest, I've never come close to filling up my storage. +[3530.00 --> 3533.00] I mean, I still have 30% free and I'm already ready to go buy the next generation of drives. +[3533.00 --> 3540.00] It's funny you guys are talking about this because I was going to go buy a whole bunch of the 6 terabyte Reds to replace my existing 1 and 2 terabyte drives that are in there. +[3540.00 --> 3547.00] So what I'm planning to use the new high capacity drives for is I'm going to, because right now we have way too many drives. +[3547.00 --> 3552.00] We have a 21 terabyte array that's made up of 3 terabyte drives that's in RAID 6. +[3552.00 --> 3557.00] So there's 2 for redundancy there and then we have a couple hot spares just in case. +[3557.00 --> 3559.00] Redundancy is a big deal. +[3559.00 --> 3560.00] I'm sorry? +[3560.00 --> 3562.00] No, I was saying redundancy is a big deal. +[3562.00 --> 3569.00] I learned a bad lesson when I first set up my first Windows home server is, yeah, I wasn't replicating the data across any of the drives. +[3569.00 --> 3571.00] And I lost some stuff that I'll never get back. +[3571.00 --> 3573.00] And that's freaking horrible. +[3573.00 --> 3578.00] So now everything in my house, I just consider half the storage is what I get because everything's redundant one way or another. +[3578.00 --> 3579.00] Yeah. +[3579.00 --> 3584.00] So I'll be using the new drives to build an offsite so that we can be doing a nightly sync to somewhere that's not here. +[3584.00 --> 3585.00] Awesome. +[3585.00 --> 3590.00] I was doing that for some essential stuff before with my home one, but it just doesn't have enough space on it. +[3590.00 --> 3595.00] It's like kind of an older, not very many port raid card and I only have one terabyte drives for it. +[3595.00 --> 3597.00] We don't actually have a ton of extra drives around here because... +[3597.00 --> 3599.00] If you use them all. +[3599.00 --> 3602.00] Yeah, we don't do a ton of hard drive reviews. +[3602.00 --> 3605.00] No one's released anything in the last however many years. +[3605.00 --> 3606.00] So what are we going to review? +[3606.00 --> 3610.00] So we're not going to get review samples or anything and then like... +[3610.00 --> 3613.00] And every time that there is a new hard drive, it's like, yay. +[3613.00 --> 3614.00] Put it in the server. +[3614.00 --> 3616.00] It's bigger a little bit. +[3616.00 --> 3618.00] Yeah, so there's not much to say. +[3618.00 --> 3623.00] But yeah, I guess all I would do with them, if I had two 10 terabyte drives, I would just go straight raid one. +[3623.00 --> 3625.00] Two drives, raid one, done. +[3625.00 --> 3626.00] That's what I mean, yeah. +[3626.00 --> 3630.00] Because I don't need amazing write speeds for network attached storage. +[3630.00 --> 3633.00] And then raid one, you do get a slight read speed benefit from it. +[3633.00 --> 3634.00] So, great. +[3634.00 --> 3635.00] Yeah. +[3635.00 --> 3641.00] Like that single or double drive raid ones will be pretty sweet actually. +[3641.00 --> 3646.00] Speaking of single or double drives, we have two sponsors for the show today. +[3646.00 --> 3651.00] So sponsor number one is Intel's presence at... +[3651.00 --> 3652.00] Hold on. +[3652.00 --> 3654.00] I have my whole thing up here for it. +[3654.00 --> 3656.00] At least I'm supposed to. +[3656.00 --> 3658.00] I'm going to fire that guy. +[3658.00 --> 3659.00] While you find the... +[3659.00 --> 3660.00] Alright, so... +[3660.00 --> 3661.00] Nope. +[3661.00 --> 3662.00] ...intel's going to be at Nerd HQ. +[3662.00 --> 3665.00] So I'm going to go ahead and screen share with you guys. +[3665.00 --> 3670.00] Nerd HQ, they're going to have a presence there and they've got some cool stuff to go along with what they're doing. +[3670.00 --> 3674.00] So first and foremost, they have an offer code right now. +[3674.00 --> 3682.00] So from now until July 28th, you can get $25 off select Acer Stuff with promo code Nerd HQ25. +[3682.00 --> 3686.00] Or get $50 off select Asus products with the code Nerd HQ50. +[3686.00 --> 3688.00] These are very creative codes. +[3688.00 --> 3691.00] For $25 off, it's got a $25 in it. +[3691.00 --> 3694.00] And for $50 off, it's got a $50 in it. +[3694.00 --> 3699.00] So I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to post the bit.ly to where you can check out those deals. +[3699.00 --> 3702.00] But while deals are cool, and they are. +[3702.00 --> 3703.00] Deals are great. +[3703.00 --> 3704.00] I love deals. +[3704.00 --> 3707.00] Even better than deals is free stuff. +[3707.00 --> 3717.00] So all you're going to do is tweet at Intel USA with hashtag Intel Nerd Scene for a chance to win a Core i7 processor. +[3717.00 --> 3721.00] They actually didn't specify what Core i7 processor it is. +[3721.00 --> 3728.00] But based on the fact that they say it has an estimated retail value of $1,000, I think we can guess. +[3728.00 --> 3730.00] Probably an Extreme Edition. +[3730.00 --> 3731.00] Very cool. +[3731.00 --> 3736.00] On top of that, every tweet gets them to donate $1 for Operation Smile. +[3736.00 --> 3738.00] So you should definitely do that. +[3738.00 --> 3740.00] Even if you don't care about winning the processor. +[3740.00 --> 3750.00] All you have to do is tweet why Comic Con makes you smile with hashtag Intel Nerd Scene at the Intel USA handle. +[3750.00 --> 3751.00] Cost nothing. +[3751.00 --> 3754.00] Each tweet is $1 up to a total of $5,000. +[3754.00 --> 3756.00] So you can check out the full terms and conditions. +[3756.00 --> 3761.00] I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to post that link into the Twitch chat right now. +[3761.00 --> 3764.00] And then we also have another sponsor. +[3764.00 --> 3765.00] Sponsor. +[3765.00 --> 3766.00] Sponsor. +[3766.00 --> 3770.00] I'm going to rely on Luke to go ahead and change it to our second lower third here. +[3770.00 --> 3771.00] Okay. +[3771.00 --> 3772.00] Good job Luke. +[3772.00 --> 3773.00] You did well. +[3773.00 --> 3774.00] You're hired. +[3774.00 --> 3775.00] Why is it this?

+[4042.00 --> 4043.00] Junk loop. +[4043.00 --> 4046.00] Just don't use clear tubing. +[4046.00 --> 4049.00] You don't want to see little floaties flying through there. +[4049.00 --> 4050.00] Oh my God. +[4050.00 --> 4052.00] It's like, yeah, my GPU is overheating. +[4052.00 --> 4054.00] There's a pube in it. +[4054.00 --> 4055.00] Oh. +[4055.00 --> 4056.00] You said it. +[4056.00 --> 4057.00] You said it. +[4057.00 --> 4059.00] Hey, I showed restraint there. +[4059.00 --> 4060.00] Oh my God. +[4060.00 --> 4061.00] That'd be so funny. +[4061.00 --> 4064.00] You'd like take your water block apart and there's like a cat ball here. +[4064.00 --> 4065.00] Oh my God. +[4065.00 --> 4066.00] Oh. +[4066.00 --> 4071.00] No, actually loop contamination was one of the big things I was worried about with that project +[4071.00 --> 4078.00] because I actually, I found other projects where people had gotten the notion, and it's +[4078.00 --> 4083.00] a mistaken notion, but had gotten the notion that having a very large reservoir will make +[4083.00 --> 4085.00] your loop run cooler. +[4085.00 --> 4090.00] What it does is it makes your loop take longer to reach equilibrium, but your temps will not +[4090.00 --> 4095.00] be appreciably lower unless your reservoir is also a heat dissipation device. +[4095.00 --> 4098.00] Especially when we're running so many systems in the earth. +[4098.00 --> 4101.00] So if you had aluminum fins on it or something like that, where it was actually cooling the +[4101.00 --> 4103.00] water in it, then that does something. +[4103.00 --> 4107.00] Otherwise, you're just creating a much longer delay while the water heats up. +[4107.00 --> 4111.00] So I found a couple projects where people were using things like five gallon pails for +[4111.00 --> 4113.00] their liquid cooling reservoirs. +[4113.00 --> 4118.00] And one of those guys, I mean, again, we're talking people who think that the reservoir will +[4118.00 --> 4119.00] cool the loop. +[4119.00 --> 4121.00] So they're not doing their research. +[4121.00 --> 4123.00] Like, I'm not saying that's a stupid assumption. +[4123.00 --> 4127.00] I thought that at one point until I did my research and found out it doesn't work that +[4127.00 --> 4128.00] way. +[4128.00 --> 4129.00] But we're talking people who didn't do a lot of research. +[4129.00 --> 4133.00] But anyway, one of these guys said he had enough gunk growing in his loop within two +[4133.00 --> 4138.00] weeks that his pump was not able to move any water through CPU plot. +[4138.00 --> 4141.00] Just to clarify, for anyone who wants to do a mineral oil build, you still need a fair +[4141.00 --> 4142.00] amount of volume in your tank. +[4142.00 --> 4143.00] Yeah. +[4143.00 --> 4144.00] Yeah. +[4144.00 --> 4146.00] Don't just be like, oh, I don't need that much. +[4146.00 --> 4147.00] It's okay. +[4147.00 --> 4148.00] Yeah. +[4148.00 --> 4154.00] Speaking of mineral oil cooled machines, our mineral oil kit from Puget Systems has shipped +[4154.00 --> 4155.00] and our... +[4155.00 --> 4156.00] I think it's here. +[4156.00 --> 4157.00] ...12 gallon... +[4157.00 --> 4158.00] Oh, it arrived? +[4158.00 --> 4159.00] I think so. +[4159.00 --> 4162.00] Oh, well, our 12 gallon thing of mineral oil has also shipped. +[4162.00 --> 4163.00] Oh, I don't think that arrived. +[4163.00 --> 4164.00] No, that's not here. +[4164.00 --> 4166.00] I shipped it to the US and then transferred it up. +[4166.00 --> 4167.00] Okay. +[4167.00 --> 4172.00] So we are going to be doing, for better or for worse, an MATX mineral oil cooled machine. +[4172.00 --> 4173.00] Nice. +[4173.00 --> 4175.00] Wish us so much luck. +[4175.00 --> 4177.00] Are you guys just going to fully submerge the whole thing? +[4177.00 --> 4178.00] I'm sorry? +[4178.00 --> 4179.00] Are you going to fully submerge everything? +[4179.00 --> 4180.00] You betcha. +[4180.00 --> 4181.00] Except for the hard drive? +[4181.00 --> 4182.00] The hard drive you can't though, right? +[4182.00 --> 4183.00] No. +[4183.00 --> 4185.00] There's no hard drive positioning in this tank configuration anyways. +[4185.00 --> 4186.00] Okay. +[4186.00 --> 4190.00] Because the store I used to work at like 15 years ago, they literally had a fish aquarium +[4190.00 --> 4193.00] they just filled with mineral oil and everything's just dumped in there. +[4193.00 --> 4194.00] Like they didn't even do it nicely. +[4194.00 --> 4198.00] They just dumped the motherboard, dumped the power supply, all the fans spin it like one RPM +[4198.00 --> 4199.00] and it just works. +[4199.00 --> 4200.00] It's crazy. +[4200.00 --> 4201.00] That's fantastic. +[4201.00 --> 4202.00] Yeah. +[4202.00 --> 4203.00] Yeah. +[4203.00 --> 4206.00] Especially with their kits, it's like honestly a lot easier than you'd think. +[4206.00 --> 4211.00] Cause you just build it on the plate they have and then slide it in and then pour oil +[4211.00 --> 4212.00] in and you're done. +[4212.00 --> 4213.00] Okay. +[4213.00 --> 4214.00] How do you even clean that though? +[4214.00 --> 4216.00] Like if you ever wanted to take that out and upgrade it, I mean, do you just call the +[4216.00 --> 4218.00] loss as soon as you dip it in there? +[4218.00 --> 4219.00] You're on. +[4219.00 --> 4223.00] Basically, it's going to take you forever to dry out the component. +[4223.00 --> 4229.00] If it's something like a graphics card that has a sticker on it, which is less common these days, but was very common back when I did it. +[4229.00 --> 4230.00] That sticker will come off. +[4230.00 --> 4234.00] Anything that's rubber will probably deteriorate, die and particle away. +[4234.00 --> 4237.00] But most things will work. +[4237.00 --> 4242.00] Some things that you have to pay attention to is stuff like thermal paste could be kind of grabbed away from it. +[4242.00 --> 4246.00] So if you take it out of the oil, you have to make sure that you re-thermal paste pretty much everything. +[4246.00 --> 4247.00] Wow. +[4247.00 --> 4259.00] And you're probably going to have to drip dry your stuff for a long time unless you feel like sacrificing bottles and bottles of some type of non-conductive solution that you can clean all the oil off with. +[4259.00 --> 4262.00] Like isopropyl alcohol or something like that. +[4262.00 --> 4273.00] But you have to be careful with those too because some of the ones that I've seen people suggest are really aggressive and can like eat away at metals and stuff, which is not good for your components. +[4273.00 --> 4276.00] So be careful about what you're going to wash it with. +[4276.00 --> 4277.00] The way I did it was I just drip dry everything. +[4277.00 --> 4282.00] And everything worked except for my graphics card because I forgot to redo the thermal paste and test it and then it died. +[4282.00 --> 4283.00] But everything else worked. +[4283.00 --> 4286.00] So basically, I have a sacrificial graphics card that we're going to use. +[4286.00 --> 4291.00] I have an old 5870 iFinity 6 edition that has a Spitfire cooler on it. +[4291.00 --> 4292.00] So it's got a nice big cooler. +[4292.00 --> 4298.00] So we could probably actually do it with no fan on anything like just oil flow. +[4298.00 --> 4301.00] Fans are good because it pushes the oil. +[4301.00 --> 4306.00] I know, but it's a very, very large cooler and it extends away from the graphics card itself. +[4306.00 --> 4308.00] Yeah, I think I remember that cooler. +[4308.00 --> 4309.00] Yeah, it might be okay. +[4309.00 --> 4311.00] I mean, we'll try it and see how it goes and then we'll go from there. +[4311.00 --> 4313.00] But yeah, it should be pretty cool, hey? +[4313.00 --> 4314.00] Yeah. +[4314.00 --> 4317.00] And we have an entire box of like tower heat sinks. +[4317.00 --> 4318.00] Yeah. +[4318.00 --> 4320.00] And those are going to be the best for that situation anyway. +[4320.00 --> 4328.00] Unless I've seen some people started screwing around with putting like AIO liquid coolers and just hanging the radiator outside of the thing. +[4328.00 --> 4332.00] So you have an individual cooler for the CPU and then you cool everything else with oil? +[4332.00 --> 4333.00] Don't ask. +[4333.00 --> 4334.00] I didn't. +[4334.00 --> 4345.00] The coolest one that I've seen was somebody took a foam box and they filled it with mineral oil and then they took the condenser out of one of those little windows AC units and just set it on the top and had a pump just circulating the liquid over the top of the condenser. +[4345.00 --> 4348.00] And it was just keeping it like almost freezing. +[4348.00 --> 4350.00] That's fantastic. +[4350.00 --> 4355.00] And it would be easy to find a window air conditioner that you could just cannibalize for something like that. +[4355.00 --> 4356.00] I'll be back in a moment. +[4356.00 --> 4358.00] Do you want to do the Steam music topic? +[4358.00 --> 4359.00] Sure, sure. +[4359.00 --> 4361.00] Make sure you screen share with them and stuff. +[4361.00 --> 4362.00] Yeah. +[4362.00 --> 4363.00] You know how to do it, right? +[4363.00 --> 4364.00] Here, let's just switch laptops for a second. +[4364.00 --> 4365.00] Windows P. +[4365.00 --> 4367.00] We'll switch our identical looking laptops. +[4367.00 --> 4368.00] Hooray. +[4368.00 --> 4369.00] Oh, oh. +[4369.00 --> 4370.00] There you go. +[4370.00 --> 4378.00] Alright, so the Steam music interface beta isn't like that much of a looker and there isn't a ton of support for different formats. +[4378.00 --> 4382.00] So they haven't actually added any support from when it was just in Steam big picture. +[4382.00 --> 4385.00] So as of right now it supports stuff like MP3. +[4385.00 --> 4387.00] And that's it. +[4387.00 --> 4395.00] And they have a quote on their website that says, unless you're a big fan of the play button, you may not find your favorite music feature exists here yet. +[4395.00 --> 4404.00] So there isn't a ton of features, but what is actually really cool, I'm excited for you to show this, is the fact that you can play it and mess around with it in the Steam overlay. +[4404.00 --> 4414.00] So for me, I don't know if this is the default buttons, but for me it's just shift tab and it brings up the Steam overlay and I can change what music I have and what music I'm playing and all that kind of stuff, which is kind of great. +[4414.00 --> 4415.00] It looks very simple. +[4415.00 --> 4417.00] So I'm going to bring it up here in one second. +[4417.00 --> 4418.00] Windows P. +[4418.00 --> 4419.00] Oh, geez. +[4419.00 --> 4420.00] Or duplicate. +[4420.00 --> 4421.00] Duplicate. +[4421.00 --> 4425.00] Wow, you field stripped that quick. +[4425.00 --> 4430.00] So this is essentially what it looks like. +[4430.00 --> 4438.00] So if you're in your library window in your dropdown, instead of selecting games, you just select music and then it just has a list of all your music. +[4438.00 --> 4443.00] And then this player right here, this one individual pop up is essentially the player that you get. +[4443.00 --> 4444.00] Extremely simple. +[4444.00 --> 4448.00] There's no way as of right now, as far as I can tell, to add all of your music to a queue. +[4448.00 --> 4449.00] It only works with MP3s. +[4449.00 --> 4451.00] There's almost no features. +[4451.00 --> 4452.00] It has shuffle. +[4452.00 --> 4453.00] It has shuffle as the album that you're playing. +[4453.00 --> 4456.00] So basically it has all the features of an iPod shuffle. +[4456.00 --> 4458.00] MP3 or go home, man. +[4458.00 --> 4460.00] Doesn't iPod shuffle have shuffle all? +[4460.00 --> 4462.00] I don't know. +[4462.00 --> 4464.00] I never had one because they were dumb. +[4464.00 --> 4465.00] Me neither. +[4465.00 --> 4466.00] I didn't have one. +[4466.00 --> 4467.00] Okay. +[4467.00 --> 4474.00] But yeah, so it's not a ton of features, but the whole idea of it right now is that they're trying to get feature suggestions from the community. +[4474.00 --> 4477.00] So send them suggestions and they'll try and figure it out. +[4477.00 --> 4478.00] All right. +[4478.00 --> 4481.00] So, uh, you mean like this one? +[4481.00 --> 4482.00] Yeah. +[4482.00 --> 4485.00] Oh, it's heavy. +[4485.00 --> 4486.00] All right. +[4486.00 --> 4489.00] So there's my compressor over there. +[4489.00 --> 4491.00] Why do you just have this laying around? +[4491.00 --> 4492.00] I'm sorry? +[4492.00 --> 4494.00] Why do you just have this laying around? +[4494.00 --> 4498.00] Well, I used this for my old chilled liquid system. +[4498.00 --> 4505.00] I had an E6600 that I think I had at 4 GHz 24-7 stable. +[4505.00 --> 4507.00] I think that was the frequency I had it running at. +[4507.00 --> 4508.00] Wow. +[4508.00 --> 4515.00] And I actually had this mounted to a, like a cooler, like an icebox cooler. +[4515.00 --> 4522.00] I had this mounted to that on like a thing underneath my case so that it could be mounted all the time. +[4522.00 --> 4524.00] I had the whole thing insulated. +[4524.00 --> 4528.00] So my CPU load temps were in the sub-teen degrees. +[4528.00 --> 4530.00] Um, full load. +[4530.00 --> 4531.00] That's awesome. +[4531.00 --> 4536.00] It looks like you even custom mounted some 120mm fans on there too to replace the big huge one. +[4536.00 --> 4546.00] If by custom mounting you mean zip ties and all the, uh, all the Silverstone 120mms that I salvaged from customer builds, then yes. +[4546.00 --> 4553.00] So basically I used to build all of the, of the super high end liquid cooled systems at NCIX. +[4553.00 --> 4556.00] And those systems were all in Silverstone TJ07. +[4556.00 --> 4561.00] So that case came with a couple of 120mm fans in the basement. +[4561.00 --> 4571.00] But most of the time I would end up ripping those out and replacing them with some other high end fan because these were customers buying 3000, 4000, 5000, 5000, $7000 machines. +[4571.00 --> 4572.00] Right. +[4572.00 --> 4574.00] And most of them didn't care. +[4574.00 --> 4577.00] So I was like, when people would pick up the systems, a lot of them were local orders. +[4577.00 --> 4579.00] I'd be like, yo, can I hold onto these fans? +[4579.00 --> 4588.00] So over the years I, I have lost more of this model of fan than probably most people have ever owned of any fan. +[4588.00 --> 4589.00] Wow. +[4589.00 --> 4590.00] It's pretty insane. +[4590.00 --> 4591.00] So yeah. +[4591.00 --> 4593.00] You have to repurpose that for the mineral oil build. +[4593.00 --> 4594.00] You have to. +[4594.00 --> 4598.00] I bet I could repurpose it for the whole room. +[4598.00 --> 4600.00] No, we probably shouldn't do that. +[4600.00 --> 4604.00] If the idea is to try to not kick heat, I mean, we could mount it to the roof. +[4604.00 --> 4605.00] We could mount it to the roof. +[4605.00 --> 4610.00] The only problem is with it, if you mounted it outside, you wouldn't have that cool air return. +[4610.00 --> 4612.00] So the, I don't know how efficient the condenser would be. +[4612.00 --> 4614.00] Cause I mean the whole window unit, right. +[4614.00 --> 4618.00] Is you have all the heat exhausting outside and then it's circulating the cool air inside over the condenser. +[4618.00 --> 4620.00] I just don't know how much heat you'd be able to get rid of. +[4620.00 --> 4622.00] You just keep recycled, recycling that heated air. +[4622.00 --> 4624.00] You'd have to duck the hell out of it. +[4624.00 --> 4625.00] Mm hmm. +[4625.00 --> 4628.00] But inside it would work great for that mineral oil build. +[4628.00 --> 4629.00] That would just be cool. +[4629.00 --> 4630.00] Mm hmm. +[4630.00 --> 4631.00] Do it. +[4631.00 --> 4635.00] I don't know if it's worth it going with like the smallest mineral oil case. +[4635.00 --> 4636.00] Cause we wanted to make it. +[4636.00 --> 4637.00] Yeah. +[4637.00 --> 4638.00] No, no, no. +[4638.00 --> 4639.00] And this has like leaves on it and stuff. +[4639.00 --> 4642.00] So if we went with the pretty dirty, +[4642.00 --> 4643.00] it would be fine, dude. +[4643.00 --> 4644.00] All right. +[4644.00 --> 4645.00] I'm going to go. +[4645.00 --> 4646.00] I'm going to go put this thing away. +[4646.00 --> 4647.00] Cause it's extremely heavy. +[4647.00 --> 4648.00] Uh, what else we got? +[4648.00 --> 4650.00] We have, I can jump to the Microsoft topic. +[4650.00 --> 4651.00] Yeah, sure. +[4651.00 --> 4652.00] Just to make it super awkward. +[4652.00 --> 4653.00] Ooh. +[4653.00 --> 4654.00] Yay. +[4654.00 --> 4659.00] So your favorite person in the world has decided to, +[4659.00 --> 4663.00] that he's going to be merging all separate versions of windows into one. +[4663.00 --> 4664.00] Yes. +[4664.00 --> 4670.00] So essentially they're bringing the like windows, desktop windows, phone, +[4670.00 --> 4674.00] and Xbox teams all together into one little group. +[4674.00 --> 4678.00] And that one team will be streamlining the next version of windows from all +[4678.00 --> 4680.00] these three operating systems into one. +[4680.00 --> 4681.00] Yeah. +[4681.00 --> 4682.00] It's what it sounds like. +[4682.00 --> 4685.00] And to be honest, if they do it right, I think that's the right direction to go. +[4685.00 --> 4688.00] Cause I think it's just too hard to maintain three completely different +[4688.00 --> 4689.00] operating systems. +[4689.00 --> 4695.00] I mean, so it, it, it makes sense, but as far as yeah, the, the layoffs don't make sense. +[4695.00 --> 4697.00] Cause it's like, you still need all that intellectual property. +[4697.00 --> 4698.00] I don't get it. +[4698.00 --> 4699.00] Yeah. +[4699.00 --> 4700.00] I don't really understand. +[4700.00 --> 4705.00] Well, the issue I have with this idea is that we're assuming that Microsoft, the company +[4705.00 --> 4712.00] that brought us the Metro UI, um, when they were only trying to converge two screens, +[4712.00 --> 4714.00] It's going to be able to converge all of these together. +[4714.00 --> 4719.00] It's going to be able to do what Apple decided was impossible when they developed a completely +[4719.00 --> 4721.00] new operating system called iOS. +[4721.00 --> 4722.00] Good luck. +[4722.00 --> 4727.00] This, this, this is why I say if, if they do it right, I agree. +[4727.00 --> 4728.00] If. +[4728.00 --> 4735.00] Cause no offense to Microsoft, but Apple knows UI a lot better than they do, or has demonstrated +[4735.00 --> 4741.00] over the years that they've been more progressively minded in terms of UI than Microsoft. +[4741.00 --> 4746.00] One thing that I'm hoping is going to happen is that it's not a UI convergence necessarily. +[4746.00 --> 4747.00] Okay. +[4747.00 --> 4751.00] So it's a different, it's a different skin over top of the same background. +[4751.00 --> 4756.00] No, because they're, they're, if you go to the basically exact same announcement that +[4756.00 --> 4759.00] they made in April, which is where they're doing universal apps. +[4759.00 --> 4764.00] If they just stick with the universal apps thing, have everyone working together so that +[4764.00 --> 4768.00] the UIs feel the same, like so that the idea is the same. +[4768.00 --> 4772.00] So that different menus will give you the same options and stuff like that, but they +[4772.00 --> 4774.00] aren't exactly the same. +[4774.00 --> 4775.00] I think that would be good. +[4775.00 --> 4776.00] Okay. +[4776.00 --> 4777.00] So here's the problem. +[4777.00 --> 4780.00] I'm going to show you, I'm going to show you what, Microsoft, I'm going to show you +[4780.00 --> 4781.00] what the problem is. +[4781.00 --> 4782.00] Okay. +[4782.00 --> 4784.00] So problem probably here, hold on. +[4784.00 --> 4785.00] We got a screen share with me. +[4785.00 --> 4786.00] We got a screen share with me. +[4786.00 --> 4793.00] The problem is that if you have something that's sharing features or sharing resources between +[4793.00 --> 4798.00] a couple of different iterations of the same thing, then you end up with this. +[4798.00 --> 4799.00] Oh no. +[4799.00 --> 4800.00] So hold on. +[4800.00 --> 4801.00] Oh my. +[4801.00 --> 4802.00] What are you going to wreck now? +[4802.00 --> 4803.00] Hold on. +[4803.00 --> 4805.00] How do I even open the Metro UI on this? +[4805.00 --> 4806.00] There we go. +[4806.00 --> 4807.00] All right. +[4807.00 --> 4808.00] So I'm going to go ahead. +[4808.00 --> 4809.00] Hit the magical windows key. +[4809.00 --> 4810.00] It's magical. +[4810.00 --> 4811.00] No, no, it's disabled. +[4811.00 --> 4812.00] It's disabled on this one. +[4812.00 --> 4814.00] So if I can even get, there we go. +[4814.00 --> 4816.00] Stupid thing will even open. +[4816.00 --> 4820.00] So I want to say for example, no, no, no, no, no. +[4820.00 --> 4821.00] Right, right, right. +[4821.00 --> 4822.00] I remember what I was trying to do. +[4822.00 --> 4823.00] Okay. +[4823.00 --> 4824.00] We'll get there eventually everyone. +[4824.00 --> 4825.00] We'll get there eventually. +[4825.00 --> 4826.00] So users. +[4826.00 --> 4827.00] Okay. +[4827.00 --> 4832.00] So I want to, I want to edit user accounts or something. +[4832.00 --> 4833.00] What, what? +[4833.00 --> 4835.00] Why can't I do it? +[4835.00 --> 4836.00] Wait, what? +[4836.00 --> 4837.00] Why can't I change my password? +[4837.00 --> 4838.00] Why can't I do it? +[4838.00 --> 4839.00] Oh, wait, what? +[4839.00 --> 4840.00] What are you talking about? +[4840.00 --> 4841.00] That's the most intuitive UI ever. +[4841.00 --> 4842.00] Just look at that majestic thing right there. +[4842.00 --> 4843.00] What? +[4843.00 --> 4844.00] I mean, I'm in here now. +[4844.00 --> 4845.00] What? +[4845.00 --> 4846.00] Hold on a second. +[4846.00 --> 4847.00] What, what, what, what, what? +[4847.00 --> 4848.00] Why am I in here? +[4848.00 --> 4849.00] What's going on? +[4849.00 --> 4850.00] Learn to Windows, dude. +[4850.00 --> 4851.00] Learn to Windows. +[4851.00 --> 4852.00] I know, right? +[4852.00 --> 4854.00] And then, and then, and then hold on, hold on, hold on. +[4854.00 --> 4855.00] No, it gets better. +[4855.00 --> 4856.00] It gets better. +[4856.00 --> 4859.00] So I go into here and I'm like, oh yeah, well, hey, I want to, +[4859.00 --> 4861.00] you know, resolution. +[4861.00 --> 4863.00] I want to change my resolution or something. +[4863.00 --> 4864.00] So, okay. +[4864.00 --> 4865.00] I'll actually. +[4865.00 --> 4869.00] Hey, it's intentionally obfuscated so only power users can figure it out. +[4869.00 --> 4870.00] Dang it. +[4870.00 --> 4871.00] You know what? +[4871.00 --> 4875.00] The stupid thing here is I actually, I had an example that I remembered +[4875.00 --> 4878.00] where within Metro UI, it dumps you back to the desktop. +[4878.00 --> 4879.00] Can't remember what it was anymore. +[4879.00 --> 4881.00] There's actually a couple of different places. +[4881.00 --> 4882.00] Yeah. +[4882.00 --> 4883.00] There's a couple of different places it does it. +[4883.00 --> 4887.00] I couldn't remember if resolution was one of them, but the point is that I think when +[4887.00 --> 4893.00] you give people this, you know, oh, well this one's optimal for tablets or this one's +[4893.00 --> 4900.00] optimal for desktop or for 10 foot or whatever else, I think you leave a lot of room for corners to get cut. +[4900.00 --> 4901.00] Yeah. +[4901.00 --> 4904.00] Well, we don't want to redo the UI for changing your user password. +[4904.00 --> 4909.00] So we're just going to dump you in this other interface that you obviously, if you wanted +[4909.00 --> 4911.00] to use it, you would have been using it already. +[4911.00 --> 4912.00] Yeah. +[4912.00 --> 4913.00] And then there's places where there's duplication, right? +[4913.00 --> 4916.00] I mean, there's a lot of places where the same exact features are exposed through the +[4916.00 --> 4917.00] desktop or through the modern shell. +[4917.00 --> 4919.00] And that gets a little confusing too. +[4919.00 --> 4920.00] I'm okay with that personally. +[4920.00 --> 4921.00] Yeah. +[4921.00 --> 4925.00] I'd rather have a duplicated feature than missing functionality in one. +[4925.00 --> 4926.00] Yeah. +[4926.00 --> 4928.00] Because that infuriates me when I'm looking for something. +[4928.00 --> 4931.00] Because going to user accounts in the desktop version and being able to change your password +[4931.00 --> 4935.00] and then going to user accounts in Metro, whatever the heck, and being able to change your password, +[4935.00 --> 4936.00] I think that's fine. +[4936.00 --> 4937.00] No, no. +[4937.00 --> 4938.00] I agree. +[4938.00 --> 4941.00] And what I do when I install Windows 8, the very first thing I do is I go change all the +[4941.00 --> 4944.00] file associations so they all go to desktop applications. +[4944.00 --> 4945.00] Oh my goodness. +[4945.00 --> 4946.00] That is so annoying. +[4946.00 --> 4947.00] That is the worst. +[4947.00 --> 4948.00] Whenever I fire up a new... +[4948.00 --> 4953.00] I don't know what it is, but whenever I fire up a new Windows 8 machine, I'm always in a hurry. +[4953.00 --> 4955.00] So in the case of this... +[4955.00 --> 4958.00] Because if I wasn't in a hurry, I'd install Windows 7 on it. +[4958.00 --> 4959.00] Shut up, dude. +[4959.00 --> 4960.00] Come on. +[4960.00 --> 4968.00] So in the case of this machine, I was in a hurry because we were supposed to do our first sponsorship spot +[4968.00 --> 4973.00] where we were using these computers on the WAN show and I needed to get my machine set up. +[4973.00 --> 4980.00] I needed to get all my logins done so I could screen share and my Twitter and my blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, all that stuff. +[4980.00 --> 4988.00] And what happened was I was hurrying through it and I went and I opened some photo. +[4988.00 --> 4991.00] I think it was like the lower third for the show. +[4991.00 --> 4993.00] And I spazzed. +[4993.00 --> 4995.00] Like, lost it. +[4995.00 --> 5005.00] Because it opens in this stupid application that has no functionality, takes forever to launch in spite of the fact that I'm running on an SSD. +[5005.00 --> 5009.00] Maybe... you're a smart guy. You're a programmer. Maybe you can explain this to me. +[5009.00 --> 5014.00] Why the hell could any application that's... let's say the photo viewer. +[5014.00 --> 5018.00] Let's say it's super bloated because it doesn't do anything. +[5018.00 --> 5022.00] So let's say it's super bloated and it's like a, you know, 30 meg program, okay? +[5022.00 --> 5023.00] Sure. +[5023.00 --> 5035.00] Why could a 30 meg program ever take multiple seconds to open on something that can read at 550 megabytes per second with a processor that's not even being taxed? +[5035.00 --> 5040.00] The short answer to that is dependencies on other services. +[5040.00 --> 5045.00] Why? What is it even doing with the other services? It doesn't do anything. +[5045.00 --> 5057.00] No, no, it does. It does. This is the thing people don't realize is that most of the modern applications that you're using are based on HTML5 that's rendered through MSHTML, which is the IE's rendering engine, which also has dependencies from the rest of the system. +[5057.00 --> 5064.00] So a lot of that slowness that you're experiencing everything is all those subsystems coming online and into alignment so that it can render your experience. +[5064.00 --> 5067.00] That's stupid. That's terrible. +[5067.00 --> 5076.00] But the whole point is, is it makes it easier for developers to make an app because they literally can make an app that compiles at runtime rather than having to actually like know how to code. +[5076.00 --> 5077.00] Really dumb. +[5077.00 --> 5083.00] I should probably rephrase that because that is a form of coding. I don't want, I don't want all the HTML5 jocks to come after me. +[5083.00 --> 5091.00] But, but that's the, that's the simple answer is whenever you have something that sits on top of a bunch of subsystems, all those subsystems take a memory. Like people used to laugh. +[5091.00 --> 5098.00] Like people used to laugh. Do you guys remember, like this goes way back, but you remember that competition that was held in, actually I think it was held in Canada, assembly. +[5098.00 --> 5103.00] Do you remember that when they used to have the competition where who could make the coolest program in five kilobytes? +[5103.00 --> 5104.00] Yeah. +[5104.00 --> 5108.00] And so back then they did everything in assembly. Every single instruction to the processor was raw. +[5108.00 --> 5110.00] They would try to make these things insanely small. +[5110.00 --> 5111.00] Well, now we do the opposite of that. +[5111.00 --> 5115.00] Now we do is we build a layer on top of a layer on top of a layer on top of another layer. +[5115.00 --> 5117.00] That's like a cousin of another layer. +[5117.00 --> 5119.00] And then another layer on top of that. +[5119.00 --> 5125.00] You only have to write five lines of code, but at the end of the day, you're running 200 million lines of code, half of which you don't need. +[5125.00 --> 5128.00] And that's the unfortunate part with higher level languages. +[5128.00 --> 5144.00] The thing I wish had happened then, and this is going to seem like an odd thing to wish for is if we're going to do that anyway, then I wish Microsoft had had the stones to just stick with what they did with Vista and say, look, you want to have a great experience with this operating system? +[5144.00 --> 5145.00] Get more RAM. +[5145.00 --> 5146.00] Get a better CPU. +[5146.00 --> 5147.00] They couldn't though. +[5147.00 --> 5148.00] They couldn't. +[5148.00 --> 5149.00] They couldn't. +[5149.00 --> 5150.00] Because- +[5150.00 --> 5151.00] I wish they had. +[5151.00 --> 5152.00] I wish they had. +[5152.00 --> 5153.00] Oh, you and me both. +[5153.00 --> 5154.00] But they had to. +[5154.00 --> 5162.00] That's the thing is whenever you create a product that's designed for a whole array of devices, you have to develop for the lowest common denominator, which unfortunately is like a Casio watch with Windows 8. +[5162.00 --> 5166.00] I mean, it's kind of like it runs on this for crying out loud. +[5166.00 --> 5167.00] What is this? +[5167.00 --> 5168.00] This is a Surface RT. +[5168.00 --> 5172.00] This thing's got like less RAM than like a flip phone and it runs on here. +[5172.00 --> 5174.00] So that's the problem. +[5174.00 --> 5175.00] They tried to make it super small. +[5175.00 --> 5184.00] And that's the thing is, I mean, if Windows 8 was designed to just when it boots up, let's say I was willing to sacrifice a little bit of boot up time because frankly, who cares? +[5184.00 --> 5186.00] Who shuts down their computer? +[5186.00 --> 5187.00] Yep. +[5187.00 --> 5189.00] Sleep, man. +[5189.00 --> 5190.00] Sleep, man. +[5190.00 --> 5191.00] So- +[5191.00 --> 5193.00] No, and they do have, they have look ahead caching and stuff like that. +[5193.00 --> 5198.00] Like the system is supposed to learn your, your tendencies, which apps you open and use most often. +[5198.00 --> 5200.00] And then it's supposed to load those ahead of time. +[5200.00 --> 5201.00] Like pre-cache them into memory. +[5201.00 --> 5207.00] I think an operating system should probably assume that at some point the user is probably a consumer grade operating system. +[5207.00 --> 5210.00] That user is probably going to open a photo. +[5210.00 --> 5211.00] Yes. +[5211.00 --> 5212.00] I agree. +[5212.00 --> 5213.00] So why not just have it ready for me? +[5213.00 --> 5215.00] I guess that's the question. +[5215.00 --> 5217.00] And obviously it's not your problem anymore, but- +[5217.00 --> 5218.00] Nope. +[5218.00 --> 5225.00] That's, that's my frustration as the end user who kind of looks at this thing and goes, this is an app that has no functionality. +[5225.00 --> 5227.00] It's bloated beyond all reason. +[5227.00 --> 5228.00] Yeah. +[5228.00 --> 5229.00] And it just makes my life worse. +[5229.00 --> 5231.00] It does nothing to make my life better. +[5231.00 --> 5240.00] The thing that makes me really upset is a lot of people like, like you're telling me about your bad Windows 8 experience and your, your bad Windows 8 experience so far has involved the modern UI, right? +[5240.00 --> 5241.00] Yeah. +[5241.00 --> 5246.00] And everybody talks about the, the, the modern shell, the modern experience and the start screen, if you will. +[5246.00 --> 5251.00] And it's like, those two things define the operating system from the customer's perspective. +[5251.00 --> 5260.00] But it's like, if you look at everything else, if you look at the memory manager, the kernel, the how all the stuff that was redesigned for Windows 8, it is so much faster and so much more streamlined than Windows 7 ever was. +[5260.00 --> 5263.00] But like, which is why Windows 9 will be good. +[5263.00 --> 5265.00] It happens every time. +[5265.00 --> 5266.00] Yeah. +[5266.00 --> 5273.00] But that's the, that's the thing that really sucks is it's like, all you do is you install Windows 8, change your file type associations, throw a classic start menu on it. +[5273.00 --> 5275.00] And the thing will run circles around Windows 7. +[5275.00 --> 5276.00] It just does. +[5276.00 --> 5277.00] I guess. +[5277.00 --> 5278.00] You might have some driver issues. +[5278.00 --> 5280.00] But every once in a while, you'll run into something and it's incredibly frustrating. +[5280.00 --> 5281.00] Yeah. +[5281.00 --> 5287.00] The problem is that it just doesn't matter to me because I've, I've always been one of those guys who like, I loved Windows Vista. +[5287.00 --> 5289.00] I thought Windows Vista was such a huge improvement. +[5289.00 --> 5292.00] Going back to Windows XP felt like going back to the stone age. +[5292.00 --> 5297.00] Once I'd been using Vista for six months, nine months when everyone else that was, was still shunning it. +[5297.00 --> 5304.00] Because I was running, you know, four or eight gigs of memory at the time and I was running a very fast dual core. +[5304.00 --> 5311.00] I think I either had an E6600 or a Q6600 or something like that, which was at the time, the Q66 was like a $700 processor. +[5311.00 --> 5312.00] Oh yeah. +[5312.00 --> 5313.00] Yeah. +[5313.00 --> 5314.00] Obviously no one was running that stuff. +[5314.00 --> 5315.00] But for me, I was like, yeah, this is great. +[5315.00 --> 5318.00] So I've always been one of those people who's just thrown more hardware at the problem. +[5318.00 --> 5323.00] So I mean, even with something like Windows 7, let's say you have some inefficiency or something. +[5323.00 --> 5325.00] I mean, I've got an eight SSD RAID zero array. +[5325.00 --> 5326.00] What do I care? +[5326.00 --> 5329.00] Something's like 20% slower. +[5329.00 --> 5331.00] I'll never see it. +[5331.00 --> 5332.00] Yeah. +[5332.00 --> 5339.00] So you go and put inconveniences in front of me, like not being able to alter a user account unless I go into the modern UI. +[5339.00 --> 5341.00] Well, screw you then. +[5341.00 --> 5342.00] I'm not going to use it. +[5342.00 --> 5343.00] No, I agree. +[5343.00 --> 5345.00] And I think that's where a lot of people get stuck. +[5345.00 --> 5348.00] And are there great things about Windows 8? +[5348.00 --> 5349.00] Yes. +[5349.00 --> 5350.00] Absolutely. +[5350.00 --> 5355.00] It's just, I'm not going to tear my hair out every time I need to do some basic thing and relearn it. +[5355.00 --> 5356.00] I don't know. +[5356.00 --> 5357.00] Yeah. +[5357.00 --> 5358.00] I don't know. +[5358.00 --> 5359.00] No, no. +[5359.00 --> 5360.00] I completely understand. +[5360.00 --> 5363.00] And there are situations where even I would run Windows 7 in place of Windows 8. +[5363.00 --> 5365.00] I mean, they're pretty rare situations. +[5365.00 --> 5368.00] But, you know, to each their own, I guess. +[5368.00 --> 5369.00] Like you said with Vista, right? +[5369.00 --> 5372.00] Vista was, if you only had a gigabyte of memory, you were screwed, right? +[5372.00 --> 5373.00] Oh, it was terrible. +[5373.00 --> 5374.00] You were absolutely screwed. +[5374.00 --> 5375.00] You were absolutely screwed. +[5375.00 --> 5377.00] Remember that horrendous ReadyBoost solution they came up with? +[5377.00 --> 5378.00] Yep. +[5378.00 --> 5379.00] Yep. +[5379.00 --> 5380.00] No, I remember ReadyBoost. +[5380.00 --> 5381.00] That was awful. +[5381.00 --> 5383.00] Yeah, let's plug in a USB thumb drive and make it look ahead cash. +[5383.00 --> 5384.00] It'll be awesome. +[5384.00 --> 5385.00] That's stupid. +[5385.00 --> 5390.00] But for the record, it actually did work decent as long as you spent a million, million dollars on your USB stick. +[5390.00 --> 5393.00] I know it worked, but that's exactly it. +[5393.00 --> 5396.00] The USB drives were more expensive than just buying RAM. +[5396.00 --> 5398.00] And they had to be really fast ones, too. +[5398.00 --> 5403.00] That was the thing, as I remember, if you plugged in one that wasn't certified and you're like, screw it, do it anyways, it would actually slow you down. +[5404.00 --> 5405.00] Good times. +[5405.00 --> 5407.00] I know people that did it for laptops, though. +[5407.00 --> 5408.00] It was mostly for laptops. +[5408.00 --> 5409.00] It really was. +[5409.00 --> 5412.00] And honestly, a cool feature in Windows 8 is Windows To Go. +[5412.00 --> 5418.00] You can actually install it to a USB 3 thumb drive and boot the entire operating system and run it right off the USB drive. +[5418.00 --> 5420.00] And I think that's actually a cool feature to have. +[5420.00 --> 5421.00] Yeah, it's a really cool feature. +[5421.00 --> 5427.00] It's too bad that all of the instructions for how to do it are so obtuse as if they don't want anyone to do it that real people can't do it. +[5427.00 --> 5428.00] Well, they don't. +[5428.00 --> 5429.00] They don't want you to go into the library. +[5429.00 --> 5433.00] They don't want you going into the library and booting their computer off your thumb drive and hacking the Pentagon. +[5433.00 --> 5438.00] The kinds of people who are going to be hacking the Pentagon are going to be able to make their way through the instructions. +[5438.00 --> 5439.00] You might as well just make it easier. +[5439.00 --> 5442.00] We wanted to do a video on it. +[5442.00 --> 5443.00] I know. +[5443.00 --> 5446.00] But hey, it gives me something to make YouTube videos for the next year, apparently. +[5446.00 --> 5449.00] Because I got all kinds of things that I can tell people about they don't know. +[5449.00 --> 5450.00] So that'll be fun. +[5450.00 --> 5454.00] Yeah, that was really infuriating because I found out about that feature. +[5454.00 --> 5455.00] I thought it was amazing. +[5455.00 --> 5456.00] And I was like, wow. +[5456.00 --> 5457.00] We were going to do a video, 100%. +[5457.00 --> 5458.00] Or booting VHDs. +[5458.00 --> 5460.00] That's another thing they don't really advertise. +[5460.00 --> 5462.00] But in Windows 8, you can actually boot a virtual. +[5462.00 --> 5464.00] You can boot a VHD virtual disk. +[5464.00 --> 5468.00] And the benefits of that is now you can put that virtual disk on anything, not even just a USB thumb drive. +[5468.00 --> 5471.00] You can literally just transport it anywhere. +[5471.00 --> 5474.00] Well, we'll see. +[5474.00 --> 5476.00] We'll see how Microsoft does without me. +[5476.00 --> 5478.00] Waiting for Windows 9. +[5480.00 --> 5483.00] Don't you mean Windows Barnacles Edition with tears on the box? +[5483.00 --> 5484.00] I would definitely get that. +[5484.00 --> 5485.00] I would buy that. +[5485.00 --> 5487.00] Somebody please Photoshop that. +[5487.00 --> 5490.00] If you're watching this, I want to see a Windows Barnacles Edition box. +[5490.00 --> 5498.00] If you ever did like a Patreon or like a Kickstarter to like Jay's Kickstarter to fund him to CES or whatever else. +[5499.00 --> 5503.00] If you have a reward tier that is a copy of Windows. +[5503.00 --> 5504.00] A reward tier. +[5504.00 --> 5505.00] A reward tier. +[5505.00 --> 5506.00] You get a tier. +[5506.00 --> 5507.00] Yes. +[5507.00 --> 5508.00] Ouch. +[5508.00 --> 5515.00] If you have a reward tier that is a copy of Windows with a picture of you crying on the box, I'll buy it. +[5515.00 --> 5516.00] I promise. +[5516.00 --> 5517.00] Deal. +[5517.00 --> 5518.00] It'll happen. +[5518.00 --> 5519.00] If you don't do anything, there will be that level. +[5519.00 --> 5520.00] Okay. +[5520.00 --> 5523.00] It better not be so expensive that I can't afford it. +[5523.00 --> 5524.00] No, no. +[5524.00 --> 5525.00] I know you've only got Lambo money. +[5525.00 --> 5527.00] You don't have that Bugatti money yet. +[5527.00 --> 5528.00] Exactly. +[5528.00 --> 5529.00] So I'll keep it down there. +[5529.00 --> 5530.00] Alright. +[5530.00 --> 5534.00] So speaking of employees and not performing very well. +[5534.00 --> 5535.00] You're such a dick. +[5535.00 --> 5537.00] These ones didn't get sacked. +[5537.00 --> 5538.00] No, no, no. +[5538.00 --> 5540.00] These are the ones not performing very well. +[5540.00 --> 5542.00] These guys didn't get sacked. +[5542.00 --> 5548.00] But what they did do was voluntarily give back a part of a bonus. +[5548.00 --> 5549.00] What? +[5549.00 --> 5555.00] So Samsung employees reported they gave back 2.9 million in bonuses to apologize for poor performance. +[5555.00 --> 5557.00] This was posted by Dietrich W. on the forum. +[5557.00 --> 5568.00] And this is apparently fairly common practice in South Korean companies, especially publicly traded ones. +[5568.00 --> 5569.00] Wow. +[5569.00 --> 5574.00] So to be clear, this was across a mere 200 managers in the mobile division. +[5574.00 --> 5575.00] So I ran the numbers. +[5575.00 --> 5582.00] I kind of went, okay, so they gave back about a quarter of the bonuses each, if we average out the whole thing. +[5582.00 --> 5585.00] And there are fewer than 200 of them. +[5585.00 --> 5589.00] So of their total $60,000 bonus, they gave back about $15,000. +[5589.00 --> 5593.00] So they still took a $45,000 bonus on top of whatever salaries they're making. +[5593.00 --> 5594.00] So they're still like super well. +[5594.00 --> 5596.00] Still, that's pretty damn significant. +[5596.00 --> 5602.00] To apologize for poor performance and a significant drop in market share that has resulted in... +[5602.00 --> 5605.00] Only slightly billions of less money. +[5605.00 --> 5607.00] I like how they still think they deserve the $45,000 though. +[5607.00 --> 5610.00] They're like, oh, we sorry for our poor performance here. +[5610.00 --> 5613.00] You can have $15,000 back. We still need the rest. +[5613.00 --> 5615.00] Yeah. +[5615.00 --> 5617.00] So that was a little bit confusing to me. +[5617.00 --> 5618.00] It's like, it's... +[5618.00 --> 5619.00] We're not talking... +[5619.00 --> 5620.00] We're not talking Nintendo. +[5620.00 --> 5621.00] Yeah. +[5621.00 --> 5627.00] Where it's like, yeah, we are slashing all of the executives pay voluntarily because we need to do better. +[5627.00 --> 5628.00] By massive amounts. +[5628.00 --> 5629.00] By like massive amounts. +[5629.00 --> 5631.00] We're talking a one-time bonus. +[5631.00 --> 5633.00] We're not talking a decrease in salary. +[5633.00 --> 5634.00] Yeah. +[5634.00 --> 5638.00] And we're talking like a show of good will, good faith, like... +[5638.00 --> 5639.00] I'm a super baller. +[5639.00 --> 5640.00] Here's part of it back. +[5640.00 --> 5642.00] Here's a few company meals. +[5642.00 --> 5646.00] Well, I'm not going to Korea, guys, because I'm not giving back my bonuses. +[5646.00 --> 5647.00] I'm sorry. +[5647.00 --> 5652.00] If I performed poorly and you gave me a bonus, then you suck, company. +[5652.00 --> 5655.00] You need to reevaluate what you're doing. +[5656.00 --> 5658.00] Yeah, that's something I really don't get. +[5658.00 --> 5663.00] Like, I don't get bonuses at all around here, apparently, because my boss is a jerk. +[5663.00 --> 5664.00] But if I did get bonuses... +[5664.00 --> 5666.00] He names his company all these stupid names. +[5666.00 --> 5667.00] I know. +[5667.00 --> 5668.00] He calls his company after himself. +[5668.00 --> 5670.00] That's like, who does he think he is? +[5670.00 --> 5671.00] Like, you know... +[5671.00 --> 5672.00] What a megalom. +[5672.00 --> 5673.00] Michael Dell. +[5673.00 --> 5674.00] Just saying. +[5674.00 --> 5676.00] Some other companies have done it. +[5676.00 --> 5677.00] And it worked out okay for him. +[5677.00 --> 5678.00] Yeah, Linus, if you ever get a bonus, give it back. +[5678.00 --> 5679.00] Give it back. +[5679.00 --> 5681.00] They used their last name for one. +[5681.00 --> 5682.00] The Michael Dell guy. +[5682.00 --> 5683.00] How about Michael's? +[5683.00 --> 5688.00] A different Michael, but they sell arts and crafts. +[5688.00 --> 5689.00] Do you like that company? +[5689.00 --> 5691.00] Do I like that company? +[5691.00 --> 5696.00] Linus, just for fun, you should actually go and talk to your whole media group team or whatever +[5696.00 --> 5702.00] and be like, guys, I'm going to give you a $100 bonus, but I think you should give 50% of it back. +[5703.00 --> 5705.00] Let's see if this is what happens. +[5705.00 --> 5710.00] I want to see if the whole American or Canadian mentality is the same as the Korean mentality. +[5710.00 --> 5712.00] I believe everybody just offers up that 50%. +[5712.00 --> 5714.00] We should go spend all that 50% on like new company signings. +[5714.00 --> 5716.00] We should do that as a channel super fun. +[5716.00 --> 5717.00] That would be hilarious. +[5717.00 --> 5721.00] Yeah, where I award each person a bonus and then tell them that I really... +[5721.00 --> 5722.00] I'm not you. +[5722.00 --> 5723.00] It's going to be like a percentage of the remaining gumball. +[5723.00 --> 5725.00] Yeah, record it like vlog style. +[5725.00 --> 5728.00] Just walk up and be like, I would like to record you with this $100. +[5728.00 --> 5732.00] Give it to them in like 250s or something or a couple 20s and be like, +[5732.00 --> 5735.00] now how much of that do you want to give back to the company for your poor performance? +[5735.00 --> 5739.00] See my offense, that would be so funny. +[5739.00 --> 5740.00] That's terrible. +[5740.00 --> 5742.00] I just hope he doesn't get hurt. +[5742.00 --> 5754.00] Speaking of terrible and getting hurt, Samsung is taking on Beats with their level headphones. +[5754.00 --> 5761.00] I mean, it's a pretty blatant case of going straight after someone else's product because... +[5761.00 --> 5763.00] Are they trying to level them? +[5763.00 --> 5770.00] Well, no, it's because Beats is like a music term and level is like a music term and... +[5770.00 --> 5779.00] Anyway, the point is now Samsung also has headphones that are expensive, fashionable, and according to The Verge... +[5779.00 --> 5781.00] They didn't even put a name on this article. +[5781.00 --> 5784.00] It just says By Verge Staff. +[5784.00 --> 5786.00] So according to The Verge, for the most part... +[5786.00 --> 5788.00] Well, because I think a whole bunch of different people try to do this stuff. +[5788.00 --> 5790.00] For the most part, they sound alright. +[5790.00 --> 5793.00] Except the in-ears, which are apparently just bad. +[5793.00 --> 5794.00] Yeah. +[5794.00 --> 5797.00] So let's take bets on which company is going to come out with volume. +[5797.00 --> 5798.00] That'll be the next thing. +[5798.00 --> 5801.00] You'll have the level, the beats, and then volume. +[5801.00 --> 5806.00] I mean, if someone was honest about it, we'd get a bass line. +[5806.00 --> 5808.00] The bass line of headphones! +[5808.00 --> 5812.00] That's taking it to a whole new level. +[5812.00 --> 5814.00] Wait, no, we already used that one. +[5814.00 --> 5815.00] Damn it! +[5815.00 --> 5816.00] In-bass, out-bass, on-bass. +[5816.00 --> 5818.00] My wife has a pair of Beats headphones, and honestly... +[5818.00 --> 5819.00] Why? +[5819.00 --> 5820.00] Why? +[5820.00 --> 5821.00] Why? +[5821.00 --> 5822.00] Hold on, hold on. +[5822.00 --> 5823.00] Because I got them... +[5823.00 --> 5824.00] I literally, they were a $300 pair of headphones, and I bought them off my friend that was pissed +[5824.00 --> 5826.00] off at them for like $20. +[5826.00 --> 5827.00] Okay, you got $20. +[5827.00 --> 5830.00] And they're active noise cancelling, and that's all I like them for. +[5830.00 --> 5832.00] You put them on, you flip the little button, the entire world disappears. +[5832.00 --> 5834.00] I don't even plug the jack into anything. +[5834.00 --> 5839.00] Okay, well you're using them right, so I'll give you that. +[5839.00 --> 5841.00] I use them for mowing the lawn. +[5841.00 --> 5845.00] The best would be if he had like in-ears that he wore, and then he put those over top. +[5845.00 --> 5848.00] Like you see gamers do every once in a while. +[5848.00 --> 5851.00] So he's like, yeah, I listen to music on these, they're like nice IEA news or something, +[5851.00 --> 5854.00] and then I use the Beats, which costs like Tony Vox for noise cancelling. +[5854.00 --> 5857.00] That'd be funny, you put the in-ear monitors on, you just put the headphones over the top of them, +[5857.00 --> 5859.00] everything, you're like, yeah, check out my Beats guys, and you're all listening to something way better. +[5859.00 --> 5861.00] You're all listening to something way better underneath. +[5862.00 --> 5864.00] That's doing it right. +[5864.00 --> 5866.00] I don't know if that makes it better or worse. +[5866.00 --> 5868.00] How'd it be cool in school, yet still popular with headphones? +[5868.00 --> 5869.00] I'm sorry? +[5869.00 --> 5871.00] How'd it be cool in school, but still use good headphones. +[5871.00 --> 5872.00] Yeah, exactly. +[5872.00 --> 5875.00] Do you guys remember the headphones that had the bass transducers in them, +[5875.00 --> 5878.00] because they couldn't put good enough speakers in them to actually create bass, +[5878.00 --> 5879.00] so they would just shake your head? +[5879.00 --> 5880.00] No. +[5880.00 --> 5885.00] Oh, I have used a gaming headset that has a similar thing where it's like a... +[5885.00 --> 5886.00] The vibrating thing? +[5886.00 --> 5887.00] Yeah, that vibrating... +[5887.00 --> 5888.00] Did you ever try those? +[5888.00 --> 5889.00] Yeah. +[5889.00 --> 5890.00] They suck. +[5890.00 --> 5893.00] I had one, I think it was like the Ben Heck 5.1s or something from some company, +[5893.00 --> 5897.00] and I remember if you cranked them up all the way, it would blur your vision. +[5897.00 --> 5899.00] Like, they shook so hard on your head. +[5899.00 --> 5902.00] It would just seriously screw with your vision and make your jaw hurt. +[5902.00 --> 5904.00] And I was like, why is this a good thing? +[5904.00 --> 5908.00] You know that list that you've gotten me to get of all the different things that I want to try and get us to sample? +[5908.00 --> 5911.00] One of the things is a bass enhancing vest. +[5911.00 --> 5912.00] Oh, that's cool though. +[5912.00 --> 5914.00] That actually sounds kind of cool. +[5914.00 --> 5915.00] That's cool. +[5915.00 --> 5917.00] It's like a chess piece thing that you wear. +[5917.00 --> 5918.00] Yeah. +[5918.00 --> 5920.00] And it like pulses whenever bass goes off. +[5920.00 --> 5921.00] That sounds pretty badass actually. +[5921.00 --> 5922.00] It's cool. +[5922.00 --> 5925.00] There's one that electrocutes you and there's one that actually has the audio transducers that just shake. +[5925.00 --> 5927.00] I want the one that electrocutes you. +[5927.00 --> 5928.00] That would be cool. +[5928.00 --> 5929.00] The little muscle contractors. +[5929.00 --> 5930.00] That would be awesome. +[5930.00 --> 5932.00] Like a seizure on the ground while you're trying to listen to music. +[5932.00 --> 5933.00] This is awesome. +[5933.00 --> 5936.00] Somebody shoots you in cotton, you go flipping off your desk and actually knock yourself out. +[5936.00 --> 5940.00] No, it's not like a damage vest for games. +[5940.00 --> 5942.00] It literally just goes along with the music. +[5942.00 --> 5944.00] Now that'd be weird. +[5944.00 --> 5949.00] It's like, it's supposed to try and simulate the feeling you get when you're in a concert hall. +[5949.00 --> 5950.00] Yeah. +[5950.00 --> 5952.00] Where like it actually shakes you. +[5952.00 --> 5953.00] It's supposed to try and replicate that. +[5953.00 --> 5954.00] I'm weird. +[5954.00 --> 5958.00] I mean, I've got an audio transducer on my seat right now that that shakes. +[5958.00 --> 5961.00] I don't have it turned on right now because I don't want Linus vibrating my ass. +[5961.00 --> 5962.00] You guys understand. +[5962.00 --> 5966.00] But I do have one and I do like the sensation of it. +[5966.00 --> 5967.00] It makes your I don't know. +[5967.00 --> 5968.00] It's weird. +[5968.00 --> 5969.00] You can feel the bass. +[5969.00 --> 5973.00] So it kind of tricks you and it feels like you're hearing a deeper bass. +[5973.00 --> 5974.00] It does. +[5974.00 --> 5975.00] The effect works. +[5975.00 --> 5976.00] It's believable. +[5976.00 --> 5980.00] If you put on a crappy pair of headphones, it feels like you can hear deeper bass, even though it's just the vibration. +[5980.00 --> 5981.00] It's weird. +[5981.00 --> 5982.00] It's hard to explain, but it's weird. +[5982.00 --> 5983.00] It works. +[5983.00 --> 5984.00] All right. +[5984.00 --> 5989.00] Speaking of a crappy pair of headphones, Nvidia Shields tablet doesn't come with headphones at all. +[5989.00 --> 5990.00] So the original. +[5990.00 --> 5991.00] That's the worst. +[5991.00 --> 5992.00] Yeah. +[5992.00 --> 5994.00] The original poster on the forum was Sharif. +[5994.00 --> 6000.00] And basically all I can say, aside from that I do have one, so I can't say anything about my experiences with it. +[6000.00 --> 6001.00] This isn't a review. +[6001.00 --> 6003.00] But all I can say is what Nvidia has said publicly. +[6003.00 --> 6006.00] So it's going to have a Tegra K1 processor. +[6006.00 --> 6011.00] That's two or that's rather four 2.2 gigahertz arm cortex a 15 cores. +[6011.00 --> 6012.00] It's got two gigs of RAM. +[6012.00 --> 6014.00] It's got a Tegra K. +[6014.00 --> 6016.00] It's got a Kepler GPU with 192 cores. +[6016.00 --> 6025.00] Remember guys, this is the same technology scaled down as what you'll find in a Titan, which Nvidia is very fond of telling people. +[6025.00 --> 6027.00] Does that make it as powerful as a Titan? +[6027.00 --> 6028.00] No. +[6028.00 --> 6031.00] Does it burn your hands if you play any more than 15 minutes? +[6031.00 --> 6032.00] No. +[6032.00 --> 6037.00] The rocket kit that we have on the main floor has the same technology but scaled down as a spaceship. +[6037.00 --> 6038.00] Yeah, that's true. +[6038.00 --> 6040.00] So it's in much the same way as that. +[6040.00 --> 6048.00] But what it does mean is in terms of API support, it is able to do a lot more than other mobile gaming chips. +[6048.00 --> 6055.00] So in terms of effects and in terms of taking advantage of work that Nvidia is already doing on the desktop like GameWorks. +[6055.00 --> 6062.00] This is stuff that might not be that significant today because the latest games, let's say Battlefield 4, you're not going to run that on this. +[6062.00 --> 6064.00] That's not happening. +[6064.00 --> 6070.00] But the fact that Nvidia is moving their desktop technology into this form factor means a generation or two down the road, +[6070.00 --> 6075.00] you might be running Battlefield 4 on Nvidia Shield Tablet 3 or something like that. +[6075.00 --> 6080.00] Because there's no reason that it's not capable of being ported to it. +[6080.00 --> 6081.00] So that's really cool. +[6081.00 --> 6082.00] That's what I like about that. +[6082.00 --> 6085.00] It's got an 8-inch 1920x1200 display. +[6085.00 --> 6090.00] It's got front-facing stereo speakers with dual base reflex ports. +[6090.00 --> 6091.00] It's got a mic. +[6091.00 --> 6096.00] It's got a 32 gig configuration that's available with LTE or a 16 gig Wi-Fi only. +[6096.00 --> 6099.00] They sampled the 16 gig version so I won't be commenting on LTE performance. +[6099.00 --> 6101.00] 5 megapixel camera. +[6101.00 --> 6104.00] It's got the new Direct Stylus 2 GPU accelerated stylus. +[6104.00 --> 6107.00] It actually seems to work pretty well so far from just dinking around with it. +[6107.00 --> 6113.00] And of course it supports GameStream, which is gaming on your PC but on your tablet. +[6113.00 --> 6118.00] With now a bigger screen, you can stream to Twitch, which is pretty cool natively. +[6118.00 --> 6122.00] So you can just stream playing Android games to Twitch on your tablet. +[6122.00 --> 6123.00] Yeah. +[6123.00 --> 6127.00] So you can just use the built-in camera right there and go ahead and stream that baby to Twitch. +[6127.00 --> 6131.00] And then I think the big thing here for me is the Shield controller. +[6131.00 --> 6136.00] So it binds using Wi-Fi Direct, which is, NVIDIA says, very, very low latency. +[6136.00 --> 6141.00] And you play games by putting this on the stand and then playing the game on the controller. +[6141.00 --> 6143.00] Now that's cool. I like that. +[6143.00 --> 6144.00] I'd like to hear actually... +[6144.00 --> 6145.00] Okay, good. +[6145.00 --> 6146.00] Because I was about to ask you. +[6146.00 --> 6149.00] Barnacles, do you have a Shield portable? +[6149.00 --> 6152.00] I do have a Shield. I don't have that though. +[6152.00 --> 6154.00] Oh wait, nevermind, right here. +[6154.00 --> 6156.00] Oh wait, no, that's a Nexus 7. Nevermind. +[6156.00 --> 6158.00] Wait, no, do you have the handheld? +[6158.00 --> 6161.00] No, I don't. I didn't even know they had that. +[6161.00 --> 6162.00] What? +[6162.00 --> 6165.00] No, seriously, I didn't. I have a Shield. I don't have that. +[6165.00 --> 6166.00] That's what he's talking about. +[6166.00 --> 6168.00] Yeah, yeah, the original Shield. +[6168.00 --> 6169.00] No, I have the original Shield. +[6169.00 --> 6171.00] Yeah, good, okay. That's called Shield portable now. +[6171.00 --> 6173.00] Oh, now they're going to call that Shield portable. +[6173.00 --> 6176.00] Because tablets are not portable. +[6176.00 --> 6177.00] Just calm yourself. +[6177.00 --> 6178.00] Not. +[6178.00 --> 6181.00] Okay, so you have a Shield portable. +[6181.00 --> 6184.00] So give me your thoughts. +[6184.00 --> 6189.00] Having the controller be a separate piece from the screen. +[6189.00 --> 6190.00] Oh, 100%. +[6190.00 --> 6192.00] Does this still make sense to you? +[6193.00 --> 6195.00] No, I'd want it to be a separate part. +[6195.00 --> 6199.00] Like if I had the option, I would absolutely want it to be a separate part. +[6200.00 --> 6201.00] Why? +[6202.00 --> 6205.00] Because I want to use the damn thing as a tablet when I want to use a tablet +[6205.00 --> 6207.00] and I don't want a giant-ass controller in the way. +[6207.00 --> 6210.00] Every time I try to use Twitter or Facebook with my old Nvidia Shield, +[6210.00 --> 6214.00] it's like I'm holding an entire other object I'm not using. +[6214.00 --> 6216.00] And it drives me nuts. +[6216.00 --> 6219.00] It is weird if you try and use it for anything other than gaming at all. +[6219.00 --> 6220.00] Exactly. +[6220.00 --> 6221.00] Gaming and movie watching. +[6221.00 --> 6224.00] But I think that they should be separate but have a way to be put together. +[6224.00 --> 6227.00] I think that separate controllers should have like a dock on it. +[6227.00 --> 6228.00] That would be cool. +[6228.00 --> 6230.00] It would be a little bit heavy. +[6230.00 --> 6234.00] Because that was one of the first things that I kind of thought about. +[6234.00 --> 6236.00] And I was like, yeah, but would you... +[6236.00 --> 6237.00] Okay, so you have an Nexus 7. +[6237.00 --> 6240.00] Would you want an Nexus 7 mounted to an Xbox 360 controller? +[6240.00 --> 6241.00] Really? +[6241.00 --> 6242.00] Well, actually, yeah. +[6242.00 --> 6245.00] Because I did at one point like 3D print a thing that held this on a 360 controller +[6245.00 --> 6247.00] and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. +[6247.00 --> 6248.00] Alright, fair enough. +[6248.00 --> 6252.00] But then again, I'm not actually using it anymore, so maybe it wasn't the coolest thing ever. +[6252.00 --> 6256.00] Well, we did up a Ghetto Shield as well and we thought it was the coolest thing ever, +[6256.00 --> 6259.00] but then I don't think either of us ever ended up actually sitting and playing a game on it. +[6259.00 --> 6261.00] So it's one of those things where it's like... +[6261.00 --> 6263.00] Oh, you know what a shield is good for though? +[6263.00 --> 6265.00] I found a really cool use for a shield. +[6265.00 --> 6267.00] The Parrot AR drone, the little quadricopter thing. +[6267.00 --> 6268.00] Yes. +[6268.00 --> 6272.00] You can fly that with the shield and watch in real time while you're flying it. +[6272.00 --> 6273.00] So you can like fly it around corners and stuff. +[6273.00 --> 6274.00] It's actually really cool. +[6274.00 --> 6276.00] Yeah, that's very cool. +[6276.00 --> 6280.00] I think that's it. +[6280.00 --> 6282.00] Do we have anything else for today? +[6282.00 --> 6283.00] I think we've already run a little late. +[6283.00 --> 6286.00] I had one other thing that was in the... +[6286.00 --> 6287.00] Square Enix? +[6287.00 --> 6289.00] Yeah, nah, not really. +[6289.00 --> 6291.00] Dell now accepts Bitcoin. +[6291.00 --> 6296.00] Square Enix is being buttholes, although they're perfectly within their rights legally. +[6296.00 --> 6300.00] To take down a fan translation for Final Fantasy Type-0. +[6300.00 --> 6301.00] They're just still buttholes. +[6301.00 --> 6303.00] Yeah, it's just one of those things where it's like, +[6303.00 --> 6305.00] yes, they're within their rights. +[6305.00 --> 6308.00] Yes, I totally get it because they are localizing it for the HD remake. +[6308.00 --> 6310.00] But it's one of those things where it's like, +[6310.00 --> 6314.00] Square Enix, are you in a position where you need to be making yourself less popular with your fans? +[6314.00 --> 6319.00] If you play Game Dev Tycoon, there's a point in the game where you get an option. +[6319.00 --> 6323.00] And I don't remember exactly what it is, but it's like fans are trying to do something with your game or whatever. +[6323.00 --> 6327.00] And do you throw lawyers at them or do you just let them do it? +[6327.00 --> 6331.00] And I don't remember what the reward is, but if you just let them do it, you gain a whole bunch of fans. +[6331.00 --> 6334.00] What is with companies alienating fans? +[6334.00 --> 6339.00] Nintendo seems to be pretty hardcore about that now with the whole taking down videos on YouTube and stuff like that. +[6339.00 --> 6341.00] Nintendo has... they're starting to work with people. +[6341.00 --> 6343.00] They are actually starting to maybe solve their problem. +[6343.00 --> 6350.00] But like in Square Enix's side, like if they just backed them, they wouldn't even have to do it that much. +[6350.00 --> 6354.00] Imagine the amount of press that they would have got for supporting a fan remake. +[6354.00 --> 6358.00] And imagine the amount of like fans and support they would have got for doing that. +[6358.00 --> 6360.00] Compared to the other way around. +[6360.00 --> 6365.00] Well I think they're just used to having so many fans that will blindly buy the next game that they don't even need it. +[6365.00 --> 6367.00] But that seems to be going along. +[6367.00 --> 6368.00] I know. +[6368.00 --> 6370.00] I didn't say they were still in that position. +[6370.00 --> 6376.00] If anything, I would say they are not any longer at this point in time in that position. +[6376.00 --> 6377.00] Sentence. +[6377.00 --> 6380.00] Yeah, well that was for emphasis. +[6380.00 --> 6383.00] But I put it on the wrong syllable. +[6383.00 --> 6385.00] Sorry about that. +[6385.00 --> 6390.00] Yeah, no, there's nothing else I really think should be brought up. +[6390.00 --> 6393.00] LG's doing good at selling phones and that sucks because they're evil. +[6394.00 --> 6396.00] Really? Evil? +[6396.00 --> 6397.00] LG's evil? +[6397.00 --> 6401.00] Well, their privacy policy is like not very enlightened. +[6402.00 --> 6403.00] Like have you ever had a look at... +[6403.00 --> 6404.00] Privacy? What is this? +[6404.00 --> 6406.00] I've never heard of this privacy thing. +[6406.00 --> 6407.00] What? +[6407.00 --> 6408.00] We live in America. +[6408.00 --> 6409.00] We don't know what privacy is. +[6409.00 --> 6410.00] America! +[6411.00 --> 6412.00] America! +[6413.00 --> 6414.00] Yeah, fair enough. +[6414.00 --> 6419.00] I mean, the reality of it is, it's not like they're the only ones doing it with the TV thing. +[6419.00 --> 6421.00] They're just the ones that made headlines. +[6421.00 --> 6423.00] But they're doing it in a pretty brutal way. +[6423.00 --> 6426.00] I know, I know, I know. +[6426.00 --> 6429.00] That doesn't change the fact that you're probably going to get an LG phone. +[6429.00 --> 6431.00] The reason why I haven't gotten it yet is because I'm still conflicted. +[6433.00 --> 6436.00] Oh yeah, what phone should I get now, guys? +[6436.00 --> 6438.00] I'm thinking about selling this one. +[6438.00 --> 6439.00] Awkward. +[6439.00 --> 6440.00] Awkward. +[6440.00 --> 6441.00] Oh my gosh. +[6441.00 --> 6443.00] All right. +[6443.00 --> 6454.00] So, I think the last thing left then is Jerry, tell everyone where to find you so that they can go support you being on your own and being independent. +[6454.00 --> 6456.00] Yeah, I'm a strong independent woman like me. +[6456.00 --> 6459.00] I'm officially poor people now, guys, so I need your support. +[6459.00 --> 6463.00] And I'm over at the www.barnnerd.com. +[6463.00 --> 6464.00] Yeah, the barn, like where the cows are. +[6464.00 --> 6465.00] Nerd.com. +[6465.00 --> 6469.00] And that's where I'm going to be living the rest of my life probably. +[6469.00 --> 6472.00] That's where he's going to make C and C++ videos. +[6472.00 --> 6476.00] I'm going to make C sharp and maybe some C and C++ videos. +[6476.00 --> 6480.00] And if I'm really going to be masochistic, I'll make some batch file tutorials. +[6480.00 --> 6482.00] Oh, that would actually be really cool. +[6482.00 --> 6483.00] I'd be down. +[6483.00 --> 6489.00] Because I think you guys would love how to make like little destructive batch files that delete your Windows directory and piss you off really, really bad. +[6489.00 --> 6490.00] I'm just kidding. +[6490.00 --> 6491.00] I won't do that. +[6491.00 --> 6492.00] I would never do that. +[6492.00 --> 6494.00] All right. +[6494.00 --> 6496.00] Thanks, guys, for tuning in to The Land Show. +[6496.00 --> 6500.00] Thanks to our guest, Barnacles, for joining us and his little friend down there. +[6500.00 --> 6502.00] And I think that pretty much does it. +[6502.00 --> 6503.00] We'll see you again. +[6503.00 --> 6505.00] Same bat time, same bat channel next week. +[6505.00 --> 6506.00] Peace out. +[6506.00 --> 6507.00] Bye, everyone. +[6507.00 --> 6508.00] Peace. +[6515.00 --> 6516.00] Dang it. +[6516.00 --> 6517.00] There. +[6517.00 --> 6518.00] Jesus. +[6518.00 --> 6519.00] Oh, man. +[6519.00 --> 6521.00] Oh, man. +[6521.00 --> 6522.00] Oh, man. +[6522.00 --> 6523.00] Oh, man. +[6523.00 --> 6524.00] Oh, man. +[6524.00 --> 6537.00] The Death Row will be here. diff --git a/The WAN Show Google Chrome Wasting Battery & iPhone 6 Specs Leaked - July 18th, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show Google Chrome Wasting Battery & iPhone 6 Specs Leaked - July 18th, 2014_transcript.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..9cdf84b56b2403968e73e59094f3fd23083fae1d --- /dev/null +++ b/The WAN Show Google Chrome Wasting Battery & iPhone 6 Specs Leaked - July 18th, 2014_transcript.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2061 @@ +[0.00 --> 4.92] And we're live and only five minutes late today. +[5.14 --> 6.30] That's not bad. +[6.30 --> 8.32] Well, okay, it's not good. +[8.50 --> 9.08] And we're sorry. +[9.20 --> 12.68] We apologize very much for being terrible people. +[12.86 --> 13.16] Not profusely. +[13.20 --> 18.58] But in our defense, we actually had no audio five minutes ago. +[19.52 --> 21.90] Or no, I guess it must have been about ten minutes ago. +[21.98 --> 24.96] Five minutes before Showtime, we had no audio whatsoever. +[25.32 --> 26.88] And now we're live. +[27.76 --> 28.46] And it works. +[28.60 --> 29.72] And everything is working. +[29.72 --> 30.50] It's amazing. +[31.12 --> 31.48] Hopefully. +[31.64 --> 33.14] We're making a lot of assumptions here. +[33.36 --> 34.24] We are, yes. +[34.78 --> 36.06] Okay, there's one thing that isn't working. +[36.06 --> 37.40] I can't even connect to Twitch Chats. +[37.64 --> 39.26] I can't sign into the dock. +[41.02 --> 42.84] See, your dock's thought up. +[43.10 --> 45.58] I can't see if we're actually working because Twitch Chats all bugged me. +[45.60 --> 48.20] I was in the dock when we filmed the show introduction. +[48.46 --> 49.10] I know, I know. +[49.50 --> 51.84] I was in the dock like two minutes ago. +[52.76 --> 54.66] And the stupid thing is... +[54.66 --> 55.22] Oh, man. +[57.38 --> 58.70] I'm not getting the... +[58.70 --> 59.54] What's the O you're... +[59.54 --> 62.88] Beautiful. +[62.88 --> 65.76] Actually, it's been really inconsistent lately. +[65.90 --> 67.86] And have you noticed they don't give you other options anymore?

+[361.70 --> 362.50] Oh, whatever. +[362.80 --> 363.50] It's iPhone 6. +[363.64 --> 364.38] Whatever it'll be called. +[364.52 --> 364.82] We'll see what they actually call it. +[364.92 --> 365.04] Yeah. +[365.50 --> 368.70] 4.7-inch, 1280x800 resolution. +[369.24 --> 371.90] At 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB capacity. +[372.06 --> 373.18] Yeah, no 16GB. +[374.22 --> 378.68] A8 chip with 64-bit architecture and M8 motion coprocessor. +[378.88 --> 382.48] EyeSight camera with, like, EyeSight camera. +[382.48 --> 385.78] With 12 megapixels and 4K video recording. +[385.94 --> 387.80] Fingerprint second-gen identity sensor. +[388.10 --> 388.88] iOS 8. +[389.42 --> 392.26] And it'll come in colors of silver, gold, and space gray. +[392.76 --> 394.48] I don't know why gray needed its own little... +[395.16 --> 396.06] Well, space gray. +[396.18 --> 400.68] I mean, it's different from, like, you know, gunmetal gray or battleship gray. +[400.94 --> 402.86] But then there's different versions of silver and gold. +[402.90 --> 403.62] Gray's Anatomy. +[405.36 --> 406.56] 50 Shades of Gray. +[407.66 --> 409.64] Well, 50 Shades of Gray would be 50 different. +[410.06 --> 410.32] Right. +[410.32 --> 411.70] So that could include space gray. +[412.48 --> 412.80] Okay. +[412.98 --> 419.28] So the point is, I don't know, this looks perfectly right to me, especially if they're going to have a larger version. +[419.82 --> 429.24] And Marcus's video, as well as the bajillion copycat videos showing off the sapphire glass, it actually kind of drove me crazy in his video. +[429.70 --> 430.78] I should probably... +[430.78 --> 432.34] Look, you can see through it. +[432.34 --> 433.98] No, well, okay. +[433.98 --> 441.20] That drove me a little bit crazy, too, because he says right in his video that he's never held a piece of gorilla glass. +[441.20 --> 445.32] And then he's kind of marveling at how amazing the sapphire crystal glass is. +[445.32 --> 449.30] And I'm kind of like, dude, gorilla glass is, like, actually pretty similar. +[449.30 --> 452.86] I mean, it's not going to have quite the same degree of scratch resistance. +[452.86 --> 466.30] But in terms of being really flexible, being very clear, you know, if you hold it in front of your eye and don't hold it in front of your eye, the human eye is not going to be able to differentiate between something like gorilla glass 3 and sapphire crystal glass. +[466.30 --> 468.40] Just, like, holding them up and trying to look through them. +[468.66 --> 470.32] You're going to need actual equipment for that. +[470.50 --> 473.18] But no, the thing that kind of bugged me was he kept calling it a panel. +[474.18 --> 476.66] And it's not a panel of glass. +[476.90 --> 478.38] You don't have a panel of glass. +[478.42 --> 482.46] You have an LCD panel and you have a glass cover over top of it. +[483.22 --> 485.12] So anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway. +[485.12 --> 494.56] The whole point is that if iPhone 6 in its 4.7 inch version ends up also having a bigger brother, which Marcus's video, +[494.56 --> 500.04] which did a great job of just showcasing how amazing that piece of glass is, +[500.32 --> 503.38] if Marcus's video is true and that's a piece for a bigger one, +[503.64 --> 508.82] then I think it makes perfect sense that this one is going to be a mere 1280 by 800 resolution display. +[509.14 --> 511.68] I just jumped into this assuming only one. +[511.68 --> 516.28] I actually even forgot about the fact that that thing was bigger because they always just release one. +[516.60 --> 519.84] But Steve Jobs doesn't exist anymore, so maybe they'll release more than one. +[519.84 --> 528.92] Yeah, and I mean the thing too for me is that at 4.7 inches or even at 5 inches or even at sort of, yeah, +[529.36 --> 536.54] at almost any size for a phone, I don't actually find 720p to be not enough. +[537.24 --> 543.74] I don't think it's, I think I can still tell the difference between 720p and 1080p, but it doesn't bother me. +[543.84 --> 544.84] I mean you're using a Moto X right now. +[544.84 --> 547.68] But this isn't going to be, that's a pretty small screen. +[547.96 --> 549.12] What is it? 4.5? +[549.12 --> 550.16] 4.3? +[550.66 --> 551.48] I can't remember. +[552.24 --> 553.48] That's a fair amount of difference. +[554.48 --> 555.34] Oh, that screen size. +[555.40 --> 556.26] 4.7 inch. +[557.30 --> 558.54] Let's just have a really small bezel. +[558.66 --> 559.32] So there you go. +[560.58 --> 562.02] And does it make a difference to you? +[562.08 --> 562.34] Yeah. +[562.34 --> 568.46] It's not bad, but I can definitely tell the difference. +[568.80 --> 570.42] It doesn't look nearly as good as my G2 did. +[571.26 --> 571.56] Right. +[571.64 --> 573.26] Like it's fairly, I don't know. +[573.38 --> 575.14] It makes a noticeable difference for sure. +[575.22 --> 577.20] The flip side of that, or not the flip side. +[577.20 --> 579.14] And you're buying a premium cost phone. +[579.14 --> 584.86] The extension of that is that LG's G3 with its 1440p screen really didn't make that much of a difference to me. +[584.86 --> 586.88] But that's a different, you can't compare that necessarily. +[586.88 --> 591.38] Because you're comparing lower resolution difference versus higher resolution difference. +[591.46 --> 591.94] That's not fair. +[592.30 --> 596.98] You can't compare the noticeable difference between lower resolutions to the noticeable difference between higher resolutions. +[598.70 --> 599.86] What are you talking about? +[601.38 --> 608.50] I'm saying, okay, I'm saying 720p versus 1080p is a noticeable leap, but doesn't make that much of a difference to me. +[608.86 --> 611.24] Whereas beyond that, it makes no difference to me at all. +[611.44 --> 612.12] That's all I'm trying to say. +[612.24 --> 613.22] Okay, that's not how you worded it. +[613.22 --> 617.54] So, I mean, I don't mind that Apple's not giving us a higher resolution display. +[617.70 --> 618.88] I understand why they're doing it. +[618.90 --> 622.54] Because the way that their whole ecosystem works with every app just works. +[622.74 --> 624.16] Every app looks right on every phone. +[624.26 --> 625.96] Every time they change something like that. +[625.96 --> 634.14] I mean, when the iPhone 5 first launched with the taller display, it was disaster town for a long time in terms of app compatibility. +[634.50 --> 635.80] Everyone had to run out an update. +[635.80 --> 644.16] So, if they were to all of a sudden be supporting three different resolutions, now it's becoming more like an Android-like experience for the app developers. +[644.32 --> 645.74] So, I totally get that. +[646.08 --> 648.90] It's just, I'd like to see 1080p. +[648.98 --> 649.96] I just don't think it's the end of the world. +[649.96 --> 650.40] Yeah. +[650.62 --> 652.34] I think it'll still be pretty sim- +[652.34 --> 658.02] Okay, not similar, but I think it'll still be a lot easier for people to develop on iPhone than Android. +[658.60 --> 658.70] Right. +[658.70 --> 665.68] Just because you have these different resolutions, but at least you don't have all these different devices with crazy different hardware in them. +[665.68 --> 673.04] Like, I know the Bound-in guys had tons of issue with, like, getting their balancing correct across all devices. +[673.36 --> 673.76] Right. +[673.98 --> 675.88] Because you have to move it around, right? +[675.92 --> 676.80] Because you're moving the phone around. +[677.02 --> 680.08] So, they'd have certain things where, like, they put it down on the table. +[680.62 --> 681.68] Yeah, they can't see the table. +[681.92 --> 682.74] So, they put it down on the table. +[682.74 --> 688.04] Put it down on the table, and with their default code, it's sitting there still, but it's showing the thing just flying all over the place. +[688.30 --> 688.70] Right. +[688.96 --> 689.82] Because it didn't make sense. +[689.90 --> 693.94] So, they had to write adaptive code to manage all the different devices, which is interesting. +[693.94 --> 699.26] But with Apple, you'll have much less differences in terms of that. +[699.34 --> 700.50] But then resolution will be... +[700.50 --> 700.90] Yeah. +[701.50 --> 702.06] I don't know. +[702.10 --> 708.06] Oh, one thing that we missed there, given the rundown of the specs, is they're going to have a Touch ID 2 fingerprint identity sensor. +[708.18 --> 710.22] So, it looks like they're improving it already. +[710.50 --> 711.50] Oh, did you cover that? +[711.84 --> 712.28] Oh, okay. +[712.38 --> 713.68] I probably just wasn't paying attention. +[714.70 --> 717.42] The one they have right now, though, is really good, didn't you say? +[717.54 --> 718.82] Yeah, I really like it. +[718.82 --> 722.06] I mean, it's not the most secure thing in the world, but it was never expected to be. +[722.16 --> 722.22] No. +[722.22 --> 726.14] And it's still going to be more secure than most just, like, tab passwords anyways. +[727.34 --> 727.92] There we go. +[727.98 --> 728.28] Oh! +[728.48 --> 729.98] I forgot something, actually. +[730.18 --> 734.52] For the 5-4 clothing thing today, we actually have a giveaway. +[734.82 --> 736.74] And you guys should definitely participate in this. +[737.14 --> 739.66] So, let me just find it. +[739.88 --> 748.02] Tweet, tag at 5-4 on Twitter, tag your friend, and use hashtag Linus5-4. +[748.02 --> 748.66] Okay? +[749.30 --> 755.16] So, send out that tweet, and whoever that is, U.S. and Canada, by the way, has a chance +[755.16 --> 758.02] to win a free month worth of clothing. +[758.16 --> 759.22] So, 120 bucks worth of clothes? +[759.22 --> 759.30] Your friend has a chance? +[759.50 --> 759.78] Yes. +[760.08 --> 762.56] So, basically, you just got to find a buddy and do it to each other? +[762.56 --> 762.74] No. +[762.86 --> 763.38] No, no, no, no, no. +[763.42 --> 768.04] You tag a friend who you think will enjoy 5-4 to enter to win a package of clothes from +[768.04 --> 768.94] 5-4 for yourself. +[768.94 --> 769.02] So, you enter to win. +[769.18 --> 769.42] Yeah. +[769.58 --> 769.74] Yeah. +[769.88 --> 770.04] Okay. +[770.44 --> 770.62] Yeah. +[770.84 --> 770.96] Cool. +[770.96 --> 772.94] We should ask them if they can send clothes to your buddy, too. +[772.98 --> 773.60] That'd be pretty cool. +[773.72 --> 774.52] That would be pretty cool. +[774.70 --> 775.02] You know what? +[775.08 --> 780.54] I'm just going to preemptively be like, yes, you and your buddy both win it, and now there's +[780.54 --> 781.36] nothing they can do. +[781.56 --> 782.68] They're just going to hate me. +[782.72 --> 783.76] They are going to hate you. +[784.82 --> 789.00] Like, falsified information on all of the sponsor in a package. +[789.72 --> 790.78] It's not false. +[790.88 --> 791.86] It's just not true. +[792.08 --> 793.38] But I will make it true. +[794.46 --> 795.46] Therefore, it's true. +[795.84 --> 797.12] I guess, yeah. +[797.12 --> 800.48] If they refuse to do it, I will buy you a month worth of 5-4. +[800.58 --> 801.16] So, there you go. +[801.28 --> 801.48] All right? +[801.48 --> 801.84] Okay, then. +[802.16 --> 804.10] This is why we don't have air conditioning in the office. +[804.52 --> 807.40] Because I'm too busy buying 5-4 clothing for people. +[808.84 --> 809.32] Yeah. +[809.80 --> 810.36] All right. +[810.36 --> 819.12] So, let's go ahead and move on to actually a really amazing little piece of article-ness +[819.12 --> 820.30] over on Forbes here. +[820.44 --> 823.06] So, here's the original article written by Ian Morris. +[823.80 --> 828.44] Google's Chrome web browser, and this is a very sensationalist title, Ian. +[829.00 --> 832.56] Google's Chrome web browser is killing your laptop battery. +[832.56 --> 834.88] He needed to... +[834.88 --> 836.16] Just, there were a couple things. +[836.30 --> 841.20] There were a couple things Ian over here needed to do to make this not sensationalist. +[841.28 --> 843.30] So, could have put life at the end. +[843.78 --> 845.90] Killing your laptop's battery life. +[846.28 --> 848.26] Or not use the word killing. +[848.56 --> 850.16] So, is... +[850.16 --> 850.60] No. +[850.88 --> 851.48] Just, yeah. +[851.96 --> 852.40] Life. +[852.54 --> 853.12] Battery life. +[853.28 --> 854.10] It's not killing the battery. +[854.10 --> 854.34] Okay. +[854.74 --> 857.98] You could make the argument that it is killing the battery, because the battery does have +[857.98 --> 859.92] a finite number of charge and discharge cycles. +[860.50 --> 862.46] But it's not the primary concern here. +[862.98 --> 864.88] So, what's going on? +[864.98 --> 867.06] Why does your laptop battery... +[867.06 --> 871.58] And it's not just running Chrome and doing things in Chrome. +[871.94 --> 874.54] Having Chrome open is enough. +[874.70 --> 876.12] Do you want to run through the details here? +[876.56 --> 879.56] Which, if you're a Chrome user, you're going to have Chrome open all the time. +[879.60 --> 883.38] Especially because Google wants you using Chrome as, like... +[883.38 --> 885.70] A desktop application replacement. +[885.94 --> 886.36] Yeah. +[887.02 --> 888.06] In a lot of different places. +[888.12 --> 889.20] In a lot of different places. +[889.20 --> 892.48] So, like, they're going to try to make you keep it open all the time. +[892.54 --> 893.68] Which I'd really rather not. +[893.90 --> 894.94] But either way. +[895.16 --> 895.38] Alright. +[895.38 --> 897.48] So, how this works is your... +[897.48 --> 897.76] Where is it? +[897.78 --> 899.04] System clock tick rate. +[899.20 --> 902.14] Which is normally set at about 64 times per second. +[902.28 --> 905.08] Is being ramped up to 1,000 times per second. +[905.16 --> 907.90] So, your processor tries to go to sleep in these little intervals. +[908.08 --> 909.94] So, that you save power when it's not doing things. +[910.64 --> 914.48] So, with most web browsers, if you're doing something heavy, like watching a YouTube video, +[914.66 --> 915.52] it will do this. +[916.26 --> 918.94] But when you stop watching a YouTube video, it will stop. +[918.94 --> 922.22] And it will go back to 64 ticks instead of 1,000 ticks. +[923.02 --> 923.38] But Chrome... +[923.38 --> 924.54] Did you explain what a tick is? +[924.80 --> 925.46] I just did. +[926.50 --> 926.74] Not that kind of tick. +[926.74 --> 927.28] Would you be a little better? +[927.86 --> 929.26] I think I did it pretty well. +[929.52 --> 930.04] Oh, okay. +[930.58 --> 933.40] I'd say that your processor goes to sleep in between these ticks. +[933.66 --> 934.16] Okay, sure. +[934.26 --> 934.66] But what... +[934.66 --> 935.50] In between ticks. +[935.62 --> 936.98] But what is the tick then? +[937.64 --> 938.48] It's like... +[938.48 --> 939.96] It's a timing system. +[940.26 --> 943.32] Programs can use it so they keep up to date and keep up to speed. +[943.44 --> 943.72] There we go. +[943.72 --> 944.24] Get to processing. +[944.38 --> 947.28] So, the tick rate is how often it's checking, basically. +[947.54 --> 948.28] Yeah, I said... +[948.28 --> 948.54] Okay. +[948.94 --> 949.70] Fine, whatever. +[949.84 --> 950.84] Your explanation was great. +[951.04 --> 951.36] Here you go. +[951.56 --> 951.94] No. +[952.96 --> 953.72] Not at all. +[953.92 --> 954.16] Okay. +[955.52 --> 956.74] Anyways, continuing forward. +[956.86 --> 961.64] This can effectively, apparently, cause your laptop's batteries to die 25% faster. +[961.64 --> 968.26] And I don't remember where the note is, but it's somewhere in his chart here. +[968.26 --> 973.76] On a desktop, it can go from about 12 to 15 watts to, I think it was 20 watts. +[973.92 --> 974.60] At idle. +[974.60 --> 975.04] At idle. +[975.04 --> 978.22] Anywhere from 15 to 20 watts of power consumption at idle. +[978.30 --> 979.12] Not doing anything. +[979.52 --> 982.46] Just having the Chrome browser open on the screen. +[982.46 --> 985.88] So, 15 to 20 watts with Chrome, 12 to 15 watts with nothing else. +[986.62 --> 986.96] So... +[986.96 --> 987.88] Wow. +[987.88 --> 988.96] Kind of brutal. +[988.96 --> 992.68] I mean, I guess that performance has got to come from somewhere. +[992.68 --> 998.50] I mean, there's the, you know those commercials they have where they have like the machine that fires thing. +[998.74 --> 999.44] The potato thing? +[999.54 --> 999.68] Yeah. +[999.68 --> 1000.46] That's actually pretty cool. +[1000.46 --> 1001.34] It is really cool. +[1001.42 --> 1003.48] And I'm glad that Chrome is faster than that. +[1003.54 --> 1009.46] But I wish that, I wish that they didn't have to make my battery life not go for as long. +[1009.80 --> 1009.98] Yeah. +[1009.98 --> 1011.32] Um, in order to achieve it. +[1011.44 --> 1014.52] I wish if one of the requirements was that it was at least your focus window. +[1015.46 --> 1015.86] Yeah. +[1016.06 --> 1018.24] Like if it's what you were clicked on at that point in time. +[1018.56 --> 1019.64] I can kind of get that. +[1019.78 --> 1020.42] That would make sense. +[1020.54 --> 1022.12] That would maybe help a little bit. +[1022.28 --> 1027.78] But like if it's in the background and maybe you're not watching YouTube videos, which are doing it in all other browsers anyways, +[1027.98 --> 1030.12] it would be nice if it kind of slowed down a little bit. +[1030.80 --> 1040.38] Because I don't really need my processor being, uh, my web browser able to very effectively play those super annoying video ads that are on places like Tweet Town and a few other websites. +[1040.62 --> 1042.28] That's super crazy annoying. +[1042.52 --> 1044.20] It's so annoying. +[1044.34 --> 1045.22] Oh my God. +[1045.46 --> 1051.24] Every single time I see an article from them, I'm like, okay, I got to do this one as fast as possible so I can close this damn website. +[1051.90 --> 1052.86] And anyways. +[1055.10 --> 1058.68] Anyway, Google has acknowledged the issue and they're working on a fix for it. +[1058.68 --> 1060.68] Um, it has been acknowledged internally. +[1060.84 --> 1062.16] Like they're, they're looking at it. +[1062.24 --> 1063.52] They've acknowledged it as a bug. +[1063.82 --> 1066.20] It's on the, it's been assigned. +[1066.60 --> 1076.08] So apparently the only annoying part of that is that they've known about this for an extremely long time and it's been being reported for an extremely long time. +[1076.08 --> 1079.38] And then like the Forbes and a couple other people are like, hello. +[1079.88 --> 1081.70] And then they're finally like, oh yeah, okay, we'll do it. +[1082.02 --> 1083.98] But no timeline has been given for the fix. +[1084.10 --> 1084.24] No. +[1084.74 --> 1087.88] So they haven't been working on it yet, I suppose. +[1088.12 --> 1088.82] No, not at all. +[1089.26 --> 1093.18] They're probably, it's probably at like buried at the bottom of some overworked programmers queue. +[1093.72 --> 1096.42] It's just like, okay, I'll do it at some point. +[1096.42 --> 1098.48] Maybe, who knows. +[1099.14 --> 1102.62] So we do this from time to time. +[1102.74 --> 1118.38] We always kind of have this debate, but this is an amazing piece of news for pro gaming and any hope that it has of becoming an acceptable mainstream thing. +[1118.38 --> 1123.08] The International 2 will be on ESPN. +[1124.54 --> 1125.58] Did I say 2? +[1125.78 --> 1126.18] I meant 4. +[1127.06 --> 1128.96] The International Tournament 4. +[1129.08 --> 1130.80] So this is the fourth International Tournament. +[1130.92 --> 1130.94] Dota 2. +[1130.94 --> 1131.96] Dota 2 Tournament, yes. +[1132.68 --> 1135.42] Will be broadcast on ESPN. +[1135.62 --> 1139.04] So there's going to be a couple of different, there's going to be a couple of different streams. +[1139.16 --> 1144.86] So it's going to be featured on their digital channel, ESPN 3, with a preview of Monday's final. +[1144.86 --> 1153.42] This will be an ESPN exclusive preview of Monday's final on ESPN 2 at 8.30 p.m. Pacific time on the preceding Sunday. +[1153.66 --> 1156.20] They are going to have Gabe Newell on. +[1156.50 --> 1158.86] They are going to be like giving it the actual treatment. +[1159.00 --> 1163.88] We're talking the streams have got like live action, you know, instant replay. +[1164.32 --> 1169.12] Something that I'm not entirely sure makes a ton of sense for a MOBA. +[1169.92 --> 1170.60] It kind of does. +[1170.72 --> 1171.40] You just don't play them. +[1171.76 --> 1172.66] Well, okay. +[1172.66 --> 1178.98] Hold on a second though, because I mean, okay, do you need an instant replay of an attack being executed? +[1179.12 --> 1184.94] Unless it's something that's particularly exciting, like, oh my god, he almost made it, but he didn't quite. +[1184.96 --> 1185.92] I think that's more the point. +[1186.04 --> 1189.56] And like if someone is, say there's an attack that's like a skill shot. +[1189.68 --> 1191.76] So it's a free flying thing that has to collide. +[1192.04 --> 1192.28] Yes. +[1192.34 --> 1198.22] If someone shoots that and then someone uses an evasion thing and like just jumps over it, that could be something cool to show. +[1198.22 --> 1198.38] Okay. +[1198.62 --> 1199.82] Or if someone just nicks it. +[1199.86 --> 1201.60] I think it's going to be a lot of skill shot based stuff. +[1201.74 --> 1207.60] Or if someone hits spectacularly hard, some crazy critical and just crushes someone, they could show that because it would look cool. +[1208.32 --> 1208.72] I don't know. +[1208.82 --> 1210.22] It would look cool to... +[1210.22 --> 1212.40] Game changing parts of team battles. +[1212.72 --> 1213.04] Yeah. +[1213.04 --> 1217.96] Like if something kind of happens, but they want to show you the whole team battle, then they can snap back and be like, this was very important. +[1218.10 --> 1220.82] This is where the tide turned, blah, blah, blah, for analysis and whatnot. +[1221.20 --> 1224.00] I guess that's more like during a commercial break thing. +[1224.34 --> 1226.36] And that's what I was seeing as kind of the issue. +[1226.44 --> 1230.04] Because you won't be able to show that very effectively with an instant replay. +[1230.50 --> 1231.38] Not really. +[1231.86 --> 1236.56] Because you're going to want to kind of draw the X's and O's and kind of go, okay, yeah, here's what went down. +[1236.70 --> 1237.64] Pause it for a second. +[1237.94 --> 1238.66] Here's what went down. +[1238.78 --> 1240.32] That's more of an analysis thing. +[1240.38 --> 1242.04] That's not an instant replay thing. +[1242.04 --> 1243.30] Instead replay. +[1243.40 --> 1243.92] Here's the battle. +[1244.00 --> 1244.66] A couple people died. +[1244.74 --> 1246.92] It's like, yeah, I was watching that a little bit slower, but hold on a second. +[1246.98 --> 1247.50] I didn't follow. +[1247.92 --> 1252.38] Because the thing about a sports broadcast is think about who it's catering to. +[1252.76 --> 1259.46] The hardcore guys who really get League of Legends or Dota 2 or these MOBA type games. +[1259.52 --> 1260.90] These guys are already watching on Twitch. +[1261.08 --> 1261.88] They're already aware of this. +[1262.10 --> 1270.68] If the objective of broadcasting on ESPN, which it damn well is, is to appeal to a more mainstream audience, there's going to be no benefit to that. +[1270.68 --> 1273.58] They're going to look at that and go, hold on a second. +[1273.84 --> 1276.60] I think it would be a benefit to that if they were a lot further down the line. +[1277.18 --> 1279.00] Like if this was already mainstream, like football. +[1279.48 --> 1279.70] Yeah. +[1279.76 --> 1280.84] Because they do that in football. +[1280.90 --> 1281.46] It makes more sense. +[1281.48 --> 1281.66] Yes. +[1281.66 --> 1285.68] But then they're not worried about what you're talking about, which they should be worried about. +[1285.72 --> 1286.14] And you're right. +[1287.48 --> 1288.10] That's interesting. +[1288.10 --> 1291.38] So I would see it being more like I was talking about, the skill shot stuff. +[1291.50 --> 1291.62] Yep. +[1291.76 --> 1295.02] The exciting, this was close, this barely missed. +[1295.28 --> 1299.60] Like you can do it really slow and watch the skill shot missed by like a pixel or something. +[1299.74 --> 1300.38] Like that would be cool. +[1300.82 --> 1304.96] I mean, is that actually, okay, here, I'm going to reveal a little bit of my ignorance here. +[1304.96 --> 1313.22] In instant replays of a game like Dota 2, do you have alternate camera angles that you can control as a broadcaster? +[1313.56 --> 1315.10] If we were talking about League, I would know. +[1316.12 --> 1317.16] That's another thing. +[1317.28 --> 1317.90] They're there. +[1318.08 --> 1319.32] Yeah, hit us in the Twitch chat. +[1319.84 --> 1322.62] I'm pretty freaking sure it has spectator ability. +[1323.18 --> 1326.74] So their casters would be able to have the spectator camera, which they could control. +[1326.74 --> 1331.76] That's what I find exciting about an instant replay is you kind of like you. +[1331.94 --> 1334.12] Okay, let's take hockey, for example, because I'm Canadian. +[1334.28 --> 1336.38] It's probably the only sport I watch actually. +[1336.84 --> 1336.98] Yeah. +[1337.04 --> 1343.96] So hockey, for example, you saw the slap shot from the point and it's in the back of the net and you're just like, okay. +[1344.60 --> 1350.02] But then the instant replay shows you what actually happened to make that happen. +[1350.10 --> 1354.78] So maybe there was a tip where someone kind of slid in front of the goal. +[1354.98 --> 1355.52] Camera's free. +[1355.74 --> 1356.34] Camera's free. +[1356.34 --> 1356.66] Okay. +[1356.76 --> 1358.04] So that makes a ton more sense. +[1358.12 --> 1360.66] It's just going to depend on how well they can execute it. +[1360.70 --> 1367.70] And right now there's a little bit of, okay, it's not quite perfect because they have the streams that are designed for the more experienced viewers. +[1367.96 --> 1376.26] And then they actually have what are supposed to be more noob accessible streams that are supposed to sort of take away from the, +[1376.38 --> 1380.74] or not use as much of the terminology that a casual observer might not understand. +[1380.94 --> 1382.60] But right now it's a bit of a mixed bag. +[1382.60 --> 1389.32] So there's talk of, you know, ganking when my mother's not going to understand what ganking is. +[1389.46 --> 1395.00] But then the flip side is they're dumbing it down a little bit too much sometimes explaining what the green bar above the character means. +[1395.00 --> 1396.90] Which, but you know what? +[1396.96 --> 1397.78] The funny thing is, what are they... +[1397.78 --> 1399.08] Honestly, they should probably do that. +[1399.14 --> 1400.74] But then they should also explain what ganking is. +[1401.00 --> 1401.14] Yeah. +[1401.14 --> 1402.18] It should be super baseline. +[1402.30 --> 1403.46] They should explain what everything is. +[1403.46 --> 1408.24] But the problem is that where are you going to find a basic Dota 2 caster? +[1408.24 --> 1409.42] Yeah. +[1409.76 --> 1410.04] Yeah. +[1410.86 --> 1411.08] Yeah. +[1411.08 --> 1419.84] Because those guys are not going to be accustomed to casting the game as if someone who doesn't understand what's going on is watching. +[1419.84 --> 1421.64] But they should try and find, like, coaches. +[1422.28 --> 1422.88] There's coaches. +[1423.52 --> 1426.68] So they should try and find coaches that will stream it. +[1426.70 --> 1429.22] Because it's not as important about being, like, the hype guy. +[1429.34 --> 1432.22] Because oftentimes there's the technical guy and the hype guy. +[1432.40 --> 1433.68] If you're doing a two caster setup. +[1433.68 --> 1439.22] If you're doing a three caster setup, a lot of times it's the technical guy, the hype guy, and then the guy that's mainly just controlling the camera. +[1440.08 --> 1442.16] Because if you want to make it super cool, you have someone control the camera. +[1442.24 --> 1446.36] What I'm hoping is that they have, like, a small army of people that are all controlling separate cameras. +[1446.62 --> 1449.42] So they can get those really cool instant replays that, like you were talking about. +[1452.52 --> 1453.38] But, yeah. +[1453.54 --> 1456.94] Like, on an educational stream, you wouldn't need the hype guy, really. +[1458.14 --> 1460.66] Just have two coaches that can be like, +[1460.70 --> 1462.34] Oh, well, this is what they were thinking here. +[1462.34 --> 1465.54] And this is why they thought that these characters can do these different things. +[1465.60 --> 1467.16] So this is why they're using them in these different ways. +[1467.24 --> 1471.22] By the way, when he hits Wooten with that giant spell, his green bar goes down. +[1471.36 --> 1472.34] That represents his HP. +[1472.66 --> 1474.00] And when he casts that spell, his blue bar goes down. +[1474.00 --> 1475.24] Yeah, but you can't even say HP. +[1475.60 --> 1475.80] See? +[1476.14 --> 1477.44] As gamers, we catch our... +[1477.44 --> 1478.06] I'm not a coach. +[1478.46 --> 1478.96] Yeah, fair enough. +[1479.04 --> 1479.20] Yeah. +[1479.48 --> 1481.50] Alright, so guys, I have a straw poll for you. +[1481.88 --> 1483.00] Because in... +[1483.00 --> 1485.08] Okay, in... +[1485.08 --> 1488.40] Outside of North America, this kind of thing wouldn't be that big of a deal. +[1488.60 --> 1490.64] A televised game tournament is like, yeah, okay. +[1490.64 --> 1496.22] Whereas here, this is a huge, huge deal. +[1496.64 --> 1497.66] Like, huge deal. +[1497.80 --> 1499.54] This kind of thing doesn't happen over here. +[1499.76 --> 1502.74] So I'm posting a straw poll in the Twitch chat. +[1502.80 --> 1503.90] If I could get the thing to load. +[1504.02 --> 1504.50] There we go. +[1505.42 --> 1506.18] Here we go. +[1506.26 --> 1506.78] Straw poll. +[1507.06 --> 1509.20] Guys, need to know what you think. +[1509.46 --> 1515.58] Does a televised North American broadcast of a top-tier gaming tournament like this... +[1515.58 --> 1521.40] I mean, we're talking over $10 million of prize money with the compendium and Valve's contribution. +[1521.86 --> 1525.30] Does this validate gaming as a mainstream... +[1525.30 --> 1526.92] And let's not use the word sport. +[1527.08 --> 1527.98] Let's say competition. +[1528.16 --> 1531.74] Because I think there's a lot of people who kind of get hung up on the word sport. +[1531.84 --> 1533.64] Personally, I get hung up on the word sport. +[1534.08 --> 1534.90] It's not a sport. +[1534.90 --> 1536.24] We can call it an e-sport. +[1536.40 --> 1537.80] We can call it a competition. +[1538.02 --> 1539.48] We can call it a whatever else. +[1539.64 --> 1541.00] We can't really call it a sport. +[1541.86 --> 1543.88] At least, opinion. +[1544.50 --> 1548.54] So guys, I'd love for you guys to hit us up on this straw poll. +[1548.62 --> 1549.66] And I want to see what you think. +[1549.88 --> 1553.58] In the meantime, we'll move on to the next topic while you guys weigh in on this. +[1553.58 --> 1555.66] But, you know, I don't know. +[1555.74 --> 1564.46] It's funny because as much as TV, like broadcast television, is a dying medium as opposed to a growing medium. +[1564.64 --> 1566.48] Or at least not an explosively growing medium. +[1566.70 --> 1568.16] But it's a dying medium that's huge. +[1568.24 --> 1568.60] Yes. +[1569.24 --> 1571.00] It's got a long tail on it. +[1571.08 --> 1573.64] It's going to be a long time before it's completely irrelevant. +[1573.82 --> 1575.22] And you know what's funny about it? +[1575.22 --> 1583.30] Is even though, you know, I look at something like YouTube, my primary distribution platform. +[1583.60 --> 1589.86] Or I look at something like broadcast television and I go, okay, if someone casted me in a TV commercial, +[1590.24 --> 1597.94] the actual reach of that, the impact that that has on my personal notoriety, not a whole lot. +[1597.94 --> 1599.94] In terms of actual eyeballs looking at it. +[1599.94 --> 1607.26] But for some reason, they've done such a good job over the years of being the prestigious thing compared to web. +[1607.56 --> 1609.20] And it's going to be a long time before that shifts. +[1609.32 --> 1614.96] Even I still view TV as a bigger deal than being a big deal on YouTube. +[1615.12 --> 1616.90] When you're on YouTube, you're internet famous. +[1617.30 --> 1617.38] Yeah. +[1617.38 --> 1628.18] And the implication, like the tongue-in-cheek internet famous term comes from the lack of respect we have for people who are internet famous compared to people who are real famous. +[1628.18 --> 1631.86] Because there's internet and then there's TV and then there's silver screen. +[1632.16 --> 1633.96] And it's going to be that way for a long time. +[1638.88 --> 1645.50] Apparently, Josh from Fractal is trying to buy air conditioning units for the office. +[1646.24 --> 1648.16] People have been spamming me to check my DMs. +[1648.16 --> 1652.68] Not realizing that I'm still going to have to pay for the electricity, which is not happening. +[1652.68 --> 1655.02] So he can buy the AC units. +[1655.20 --> 1655.60] Wow. +[1655.60 --> 1658.70] But they're going to go wherever it is that they go. +[1659.88 --> 1660.44] Wow. +[1660.66 --> 1663.04] If we do AC here, it'll be central AC. +[1663.18 --> 1664.70] Not those stupid window mounting units. +[1664.70 --> 1669.14] We'll even pay for the electricity for a paid-for AC unit. +[1669.46 --> 1669.84] All right. +[1669.94 --> 1670.94] My boss. +[1671.20 --> 1673.04] So here you go. +[1673.10 --> 1675.12] Here's what you guys said about the straw poll. +[1675.12 --> 1679.20] I'll give you guys one more chance to weigh in right now. +[1679.30 --> 1682.12] Let's just fire up this guy right here. +[1682.94 --> 1685.50] People are asking me if I'm going to hire Barnacles. +[1685.70 --> 1687.60] What makes people think I can afford Barnacles? +[1687.96 --> 1690.32] What makes people think Barnacles lives here? +[1690.40 --> 1693.64] What makes people think Barnacles wants to move himself and his family? +[1695.82 --> 1699.20] There's been a lot of Twitter chatter about when I'm going to hire Barnacles. +[1699.38 --> 1700.60] I'm not going to hire Barnacles. +[1700.60 --> 1705.04] He's got his own YouTube channel that's actually growing at a reasonable rate. +[1705.14 --> 1706.70] He's got his own things to do. +[1707.16 --> 1707.46] Anyway. +[1707.98 --> 1711.04] Does a North American TV broadcast mean gaming is going mainstream? +[1711.30 --> 1714.34] We've got 60% of you saying yes, but not for a while. +[1714.54 --> 1716.72] 20% of you saying yes now. +[1716.94 --> 1719.74] And the final 20% of you saying no, that's ridiculous. +[1720.28 --> 1720.94] You know what? +[1722.64 --> 1725.68] I would have said no, that's ridiculous a year ago. +[1726.74 --> 1729.54] I'm going to agree with the 62%, 61%. +[1729.54 --> 1730.78] Yeah, I'm going to go with those guys. +[1730.90 --> 1732.66] I don't think this is... +[1732.66 --> 1737.54] I think once all the major matches are cast on ESPN2... +[1738.54 --> 1742.30] And, I mean, you've got to look at it like any sport. +[1742.54 --> 1747.66] The acceptance is going to come down to stuff that goes way beyond being broadcast on TV. +[1748.02 --> 1751.10] The NHL is broadcast on TV in the United States. +[1751.10 --> 1764.34] That doesn't change the fact that outside of maybe a dozen to a couple dozen areas, that doesn't mean that the NHL really has any penetration compared to how widely accepted and how widely viewed it is in Canada. +[1764.60 --> 1764.76] Yeah. +[1764.76 --> 1765.76] So... +[1765.76 --> 1773.48] Watching the water usage statistics for the Olympic Games is hilarious during hockey matches. +[1773.64 --> 1773.90] Yeah. +[1774.00 --> 1774.76] It was the... +[1774.76 --> 1784.72] It was, I think, the gold medal Canada game or something like that where basically nobody used the bathroom in the entire country while the game was on. +[1784.72 --> 1789.58] And then the water pressure of the entire country got destroyed. +[1789.76 --> 1792.14] And as it went into overtime or something... +[1792.14 --> 1793.64] I forget what game this was exactly. +[1793.74 --> 1794.98] I think it was an Olympic game. +[1795.32 --> 1798.80] But as it went into overtime, it got worse and worse. +[1798.86 --> 1800.90] Because people would be kind of holding out, holding out. +[1800.96 --> 1802.14] No, I really need to go. +[1802.20 --> 1803.46] And then they'd wait for an overtime period. +[1804.82 --> 1805.66] Oh, hilarious. +[1805.66 --> 1807.68] All right. +[1808.08 --> 1809.60] ESPN to cast Dota 2 tournament. +[1809.72 --> 1811.10] That's extremely exciting, though. +[1811.14 --> 1812.10] I mean, it's a turning point. +[1812.28 --> 1812.54] It is. +[1812.54 --> 1813.14] I think it's... +[1813.14 --> 1813.36] If nothing else. +[1813.40 --> 1814.68] It's a slightly... +[1814.68 --> 1815.34] Like, it's not... +[1815.34 --> 1816.18] I don't think it's enough. +[1816.44 --> 1822.42] Because saying ESPN is casting it, I think, is almost a little bit sensationalist. +[1822.42 --> 1823.84] Just because it's ESPN 3. +[1824.24 --> 1824.64] Yeah. +[1824.90 --> 1825.20] It's... +[1825.20 --> 1825.48] It's... +[1825.48 --> 1826.46] Well, hold on. +[1826.50 --> 1828.36] They have that pregame coverage on ESPN 2. +[1828.52 --> 1830.90] That's the important part, though, is the pregame coverage. +[1830.90 --> 1832.80] And that's why I was saying once it's, like... +[1832.80 --> 1833.60] Once it's... +[1833.60 --> 1838.88] Once that pregame coverage is all the major matches, and once it's not the pregame, once +[1838.88 --> 1842.92] it's the final, once it's, like, that kind of stuff, I think that's more important. +[1843.84 --> 1845.68] But this is still extremely cool. +[1846.00 --> 1847.22] I just think it's... +[1847.22 --> 1851.52] It's, like, the first stone in the, like, walk that we need to create, and it's not even +[1851.52 --> 1852.30] that big of one. +[1852.62 --> 1852.90] Right. +[1853.82 --> 1855.68] It's just very cool that it's actually there. +[1855.92 --> 1858.54] So this is a post from Builder on the forum. +[1858.54 --> 1862.52] Google Plus now lets you use any name you want. +[1863.92 --> 1864.32] Okay. +[1864.84 --> 1866.52] Thank you, Google. +[1866.88 --> 1867.94] I still wish... +[1867.94 --> 1868.26] A little late. +[1868.80 --> 1869.16] Yeah. +[1869.38 --> 1871.68] It's a little late, and it's a little frustrating. +[1871.90 --> 1874.54] I've already created, you know, my... +[1875.36 --> 1880.64] Using a page for Linus Tech Tips, as opposed to just having a normal person account. +[1881.72 --> 1882.76] I've already... +[1882.76 --> 1884.00] Like, I've already done all this stuff. +[1884.00 --> 1891.34] I've already gone through all this stress of every time I merge any Google service, or +[1891.34 --> 1897.62] create any new one, or rename anything, worrying about, oh my god, is it permanent now? +[1898.74 --> 1904.24] Oh my god, do I have to completely junk this YouTube account? +[1904.24 --> 1910.30] Because instead of Tech Quickie with two capitals, I forgot to make the second queue a capital, +[1910.64 --> 1913.46] and I cannot change that, because thank you, Google. +[1914.22 --> 1917.94] So, to me, it's just too little too late. +[1918.00 --> 1923.92] It's got 4,300 pluses on the post that's shared on Google Plus, of course. +[1923.92 --> 1929.56] And one thing that I thought was really cool about it is that their development lead is +[1929.56 --> 1935.78] actually in the Google Plus comments, check this out, replying to individual people's concerns +[1935.78 --> 1940.24] about the change, because the reality of it is, not everyone's happy about it. +[1940.90 --> 1947.86] Some people liked the real name policy on Google Plus, and were users of Google Plus, because +[1947.86 --> 1951.92] they felt like the real name policy took some of the trolling out of it. +[1951.92 --> 1954.78] I don't know. +[1954.86 --> 1956.06] Is there anything else to really say about it? +[1956.48 --> 1962.90] He said specifically at one point, where some people are saying it's come out in playtime +[1962.90 --> 1967.40] for trolls, but he said one of the reasons it is safe to do at this launch is their troll +[1967.40 --> 1969.72] smashing department has gotten very good at their jobs. +[1970.24 --> 1973.66] Which is, that's cool and all, but I don't necessarily... +[1973.66 --> 1974.18] What are you doing? +[1974.62 --> 1975.18] Don't worry about it. +[1975.44 --> 1975.72] Carry on. +[1975.80 --> 1976.14] Okay. +[1977.60 --> 1980.26] That's cool and all, but I don't necessarily know if that'll help. +[1980.26 --> 1983.46] I'm sure there will be, what was it, Bob and his tank or whatever. +[1984.00 --> 1985.34] I'm sure they will come back. +[1985.70 --> 1987.10] But I don't even know if I care. +[1987.22 --> 1990.78] I would much rather have, personally at least, much rather be able to have an account which +[1990.78 --> 1991.78] doesn't have my name on it. +[1991.80 --> 1994.10] I never had an account that had my name on it. +[1994.50 --> 1994.60] Right. +[1995.16 --> 1999.74] Once they were trying to force you to merge your accounts, I just stopped using my personal +[1999.74 --> 2001.68] account on YouTube and started using my work one. +[2001.96 --> 2002.10] Right. +[2002.20 --> 2004.42] So I didn't have to merge them, so I could keep them separate. +[2004.54 --> 2006.52] And now I might merge my old personal account. +[2006.78 --> 2007.04] Right. +[2007.04 --> 2008.76] Just because, like, that's stupid. +[2008.86 --> 2009.68] I don't want to do that. +[2009.76 --> 2013.90] For me, it's frustrating because I don't go by my real name, really. +[2014.16 --> 2018.70] Like, Austin Evans goes by his real name across the board on the YouTube channel, on Twitter, +[2019.12 --> 2019.44] everywhere. +[2019.96 --> 2022.30] Whereas, I don't go by that. +[2022.54 --> 2025.78] I go by Linus Tech or Linus Tech Tips or whatever else. +[2025.78 --> 2030.04] Not because I think it's better, but because I think it's... +[2030.04 --> 2033.00] It just is what I did in the first place and I can't change it. +[2033.04 --> 2033.50] Thanks, Google. +[2033.50 --> 2035.80] So that's where we're at. +[2035.90 --> 2039.86] How I've always used the internet and, like, including forum signup and everything that +[2039.86 --> 2044.26] I've always done, until fairly recently when I've had a public persona, is I've used this +[2044.26 --> 2046.72] thing, which is called fakenamegenerator.com. +[2046.72 --> 2054.74] And all you have to do is put in a gender, a name set, which there's a lot of different +[2054.74 --> 2058.72] name sets to choose from, and a country, which there's also tons of different countries to +[2058.72 --> 2059.14] choose from. +[2059.30 --> 2063.12] And it gives you, like, all the form fillable information. +[2063.68 --> 2064.06] Wow. +[2064.18 --> 2065.78] That you could, like, possibly need. +[2065.86 --> 2067.46] It even gives you a fake job. +[2067.66 --> 2069.46] It even gives you a fake SSN. +[2069.56 --> 2070.98] It gives you a fake vehicle. +[2070.98 --> 2072.98] It gives you a fake vehicle. +[2073.46 --> 2075.72] I drive a 2004 Lexus LFC. +[2076.00 --> 2076.60] What do you drive? +[2077.06 --> 2079.34] Apparently a 1995 Hyundai Elantra. +[2080.12 --> 2080.60] Yeah! +[2081.76 --> 2083.98] My name is apparently Stacy B. Warner. +[2084.30 --> 2084.54] Wow. +[2084.88 --> 2085.44] That's interesting. +[2085.50 --> 2086.58] Mine's Justin M. Anderson. +[2088.48 --> 2089.42] You got something to tell me? +[2091.34 --> 2093.86] Mind you, you're 29 and I'm 68, so... +[2093.86 --> 2094.36] Right! +[2094.36 --> 2097.66] As much cooler than you as I am right now, I'll be dead soon. +[2097.96 --> 2098.22] Yeah. +[2098.90 --> 2099.26] Yeah. +[2099.52 --> 2103.56] I haven't, like, I don't know, I haven't put in any, yeah, the gender set to random and +[2103.56 --> 2108.90] stuff, but that's what I used to do, mainly when I was younger, because I just didn't want +[2108.90 --> 2110.06] to give my information to people. +[2110.10 --> 2111.64] And I still don't, normally. +[2112.42 --> 2116.90] Like, I think I have my real information filled in and just a few main services that +[2116.90 --> 2119.98] I'm really worried about, it would be very damaging if I lost them. +[2120.14 --> 2120.44] Right. +[2120.44 --> 2123.22] So that if I called up and they're like, what is all your information, I could be like, +[2123.28 --> 2125.20] well, I know that. +[2125.30 --> 2127.50] I don't have to make this stuff up because... +[2127.50 --> 2127.72] Yeah. +[2127.86 --> 2130.86] And if they're like, oh, we need to see, like, an ID. +[2131.14 --> 2131.40] Right. +[2131.50 --> 2135.74] Because there's a few different services that'll do that, then I can actually show my real ID +[2135.74 --> 2136.22] and it's fine. +[2136.22 --> 2141.00] You know, the funny thing about that whole thing is I'm not, I'm not sure how I feel +[2141.00 --> 2145.24] about people being, people using a real identity online for certain things. +[2145.48 --> 2147.72] For some stuff, I, like, I don't... +[2147.72 --> 2153.02] Okay, again, so my problem is that I wanted to go by an alias because my alias is much +[2153.02 --> 2156.62] more well-known than my actual name, but... +[2156.62 --> 2157.94] But your alias is... +[2157.94 --> 2159.44] I mean, well, it's part of my name. +[2159.52 --> 2162.32] And there aren't that many Linuses, so it's really not very private. +[2162.56 --> 2162.80] Yeah. +[2163.26 --> 2168.56] Compared to if I went by, you know, Bob the PC Builder, as if that wasn't going to result +[2168.56 --> 2168.90] in a lawsuit. +[2168.90 --> 2170.72] Tech Builder TV 15. +[2170.72 --> 2171.92] Something like that. +[2172.46 --> 2178.52] For some things online, I still don't mind people using their real names because removing +[2178.52 --> 2182.04] that anonymity does remove a little bit of buttheadness. +[2182.24 --> 2186.68] Yeah, but then at the same time, if someone, even if you're saying something that isn't +[2186.68 --> 2190.72] buttheadness and someone takes offense to it somehow, it's extremely dangerous. +[2190.72 --> 2196.84] There are 100,000 legitimate, really great reasons to not have to reveal your identity +[2196.84 --> 2197.16] online. +[2197.36 --> 2198.14] Totally get it. +[2198.52 --> 2203.42] I think there would be interesting places like the FCC forum, but then that's also scary +[2203.42 --> 2205.26] because government could be pissed at you right now. +[2205.26 --> 2205.66] Exactly. +[2205.88 --> 2207.46] So I just don't think it's that cut and dried. +[2207.54 --> 2208.60] And apparently neither does Google. +[2208.70 --> 2213.96] They're still defending their old position of asking for people's real names as they continue. +[2214.14 --> 2218.10] So originally they, what, allowed nicknames, and then now they're just removing the whole +[2218.10 --> 2218.48] thing entirely. +[2218.48 --> 2223.50] So as they've stepped back from that hardline policy, they're still saying that the old +[2223.50 --> 2224.72] one was what it was. +[2225.22 --> 2225.28] Yeah. +[2225.80 --> 2229.68] Which I guess leads us into, yes. +[2229.82 --> 2230.12] Does it? +[2230.20 --> 2230.32] What? +[2230.40 --> 2231.52] Our sponsor spots. +[2231.54 --> 2232.58] Oh, okay. +[2233.06 --> 2233.58] All right. +[2233.68 --> 2235.82] So let's go ahead and search for that hashtag. +[2236.02 --> 2237.78] I'm going to, I'm going to give you the hashtag now. +[2237.86 --> 2238.94] So tag your friend. +[2239.58 --> 2240.92] Oh, we're doing this on the show. +[2241.04 --> 2242.00] Yeah, we're doing this on the show. +[2242.16 --> 2242.34] Cool. +[2242.48 --> 2246.20] We're giving away $120 worth of 5-4 clothing live. +[2246.20 --> 2247.42] I should have tweeted someone. +[2247.42 --> 2248.84] You should have tweeted someone. +[2248.98 --> 2249.54] Go for it. +[2249.64 --> 2250.20] Do it now. +[2250.42 --> 2251.42] Oh my God. +[2252.18 --> 2254.78] Please note, employees and anyone affiliated with employees of Latinx Media Group cannot +[2254.78 --> 2255.04] win. +[2255.20 --> 2256.52] But you can go ahead and tweet it anyway. +[2256.58 --> 2256.86] I don't care. +[2257.04 --> 2257.22] Damn it. +[2258.02 --> 2260.22] I'm going to tweet it to someone anyways, just to confuse them. +[2260.38 --> 2261.16] I'm just going to go ahead. +[2261.20 --> 2264.82] I'm going to post this in the Twitch chat so you guys have a chance to give you and your +[2264.82 --> 2266.86] friend, because I'm just breaking all the rules. +[2267.16 --> 2272.10] You and your friend, a chance to win $120 worth of clothing from 5-4 while I go ahead +[2272.10 --> 2274.50] and cover what exactly 5-4 is. +[2274.62 --> 2276.58] So first, I have to remove my earpiece. +[2276.58 --> 2277.44] Are you stripping on camera again? +[2277.58 --> 2277.74] Yeah. +[2277.86 --> 2279.34] I'm stripping on camera all the time. +[2279.34 --> 2280.06] You could just put it on top of your current shirt. +[2280.14 --> 2280.98] No, it's really warm in here. +[2281.08 --> 2282.18] You are kind of stripping on camera. +[2282.22 --> 2283.34] I'm kind of stripping on camera. +[2283.62 --> 2286.54] I'm going to cover my nipples this week with the 5-4 club logo. +[2287.90 --> 2288.30] Censorship. +[2288.54 --> 2289.24] 5-4 censorship. +[2289.46 --> 2290.06] Is it going to do it properly? +[2290.42 --> 2291.12] I'm going to try. +[2291.24 --> 2292.32] You're doing pretty good so far. +[2292.34 --> 2293.28] Yeah, I'm doing pretty good so far. +[2293.62 --> 2295.92] It's like, do they really want their logo on top of my nipples? +[2297.04 --> 2297.88] One of these days, I'm going to... +[2297.88 --> 2301.58] Well, you're kind of like one of those, like, I don't know what they're called, but those +[2301.58 --> 2303.52] swimsuits for girls that don't have straps. +[2303.86 --> 2304.64] They just go across. +[2304.86 --> 2306.76] Now I'm censoring their logo with their logo. +[2309.64 --> 2312.50] One of these days, they're just going to be like, we're sick of this guy's crap. +[2313.76 --> 2314.28] Damn it. +[2314.66 --> 2317.66] He's going to keep pushing the boundaries of what he can get away with when he talks about +[2317.66 --> 2318.04] our company. +[2318.26 --> 2320.04] The next thing you're going to do, though, because they're mad about the +[2320.04 --> 2320.92] logo thing. +[2321.04 --> 2322.10] You're just going to slide this up. +[2322.70 --> 2324.28] Oh, no, you can't slide that up. +[2324.52 --> 2327.86] That was going to be like, we can be like the guy from Star Trek and have, like, the eye +[2327.86 --> 2328.44] cover thing. +[2329.16 --> 2329.54] All right. +[2329.78 --> 2332.00] Hashtag Linus5-4. +[2332.16 --> 2337.88] I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to just randomly, I don't know. +[2338.02 --> 2338.42] Okay. +[2339.10 --> 2342.42] Steve G. Seems like he has a pretty cool name. +[2342.54 --> 2343.72] Let's see if he did it right. +[2343.72 --> 2343.78] All right. +[2344.22 --> 2348.56] So, Steve G., you got, here we go, Linus Screenshare. +[2349.38 --> 2350.80] Check out 5-4. +[2351.10 --> 2356.72] Hashtag Linus5-4 and tags presumably his buddy, Brian Miller, 1-1-1-1. +[2357.68 --> 2358.08] All right. +[2358.18 --> 2361.52] Steve G., I'm going to go ahead and follow you on the Twitters here. +[2362.22 --> 2363.80] And you are the big winner. +[2364.14 --> 2364.50] Congratulations. +[2365.20 --> 2366.68] So, go ahead and send me a DM. +[2366.82 --> 2368.46] We'll get your information sorted out. +[2368.90 --> 2372.54] And you get $120 worth of clothing from 5-4. +[2372.66 --> 2375.76] But, of course, we have to tell you about 5-4 service. +[2375.84 --> 2379.94] So, basically, if you hate shopping, 5-4 is designed for you. +[2380.02 --> 2383.56] If you hate people looking at you like they're judging you and you pick the wrong clothes in +[2383.56 --> 2383.94] the store. +[2384.18 --> 2385.00] Do you get that feeling? +[2385.22 --> 2385.46] No. +[2386.06 --> 2386.36] Really? +[2386.76 --> 2386.98] No. +[2387.08 --> 2387.58] I do. +[2387.84 --> 2388.52] I just... +[2388.52 --> 2389.70] I get really anxious. +[2390.16 --> 2392.26] I don't care at all. +[2392.70 --> 2396.76] But then that also makes the shopping experience not good and also helps with 5-4. +[2396.96 --> 2397.44] You know what the... +[2397.44 --> 2398.74] Because then I don't have to care. +[2398.84 --> 2399.50] It just shows up. +[2400.14 --> 2402.52] The problem for me is that I... +[2403.70 --> 2404.38] Like, I... +[2404.38 --> 2404.56] Okay. +[2404.86 --> 2407.78] The problem for me is I have, like, this weird mental block. +[2408.08 --> 2414.24] Where, like, if you look bad because you don't care and you obviously just picked up whatever, +[2414.86 --> 2416.88] then I kind of get that. +[2416.88 --> 2422.12] Whereas if you look bad, even though you obviously tried really hard to look good... +[2422.12 --> 2422.50] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2422.60 --> 2423.96] I can get a little judgy. +[2424.06 --> 2424.42] Me too. +[2424.72 --> 2426.18] I get the exact same thing, actually. +[2426.28 --> 2427.06] That's a very good point. +[2427.12 --> 2428.42] I never thought about that before, though. +[2428.42 --> 2434.38] So when I'm shopping, I fall into this trap where either I have to pick stuff that looks +[2434.38 --> 2438.90] like I don't care and I'll never look that good, or I have to try to pick stuff that looks +[2438.90 --> 2441.80] like I tried and risk looking like a dumbass. +[2442.46 --> 2443.28] So I just... +[2443.28 --> 2443.64] I hate shopping. +[2443.68 --> 2447.86] So anyway, the way 5-4 works is they've got your own personal stylist that goes through +[2447.86 --> 2449.78] and handpicks stuff to send you every month. +[2449.78 --> 2455.00] You get $120 sticker price worth of clothing for $60 every month. +[2455.22 --> 2461.28] And if you use our code here, bit.ly slash LinusFFC, and offer code Linus, you get $15 +[2461.28 --> 2463.12] off of your first package. +[2463.52 --> 2465.70] So the quality of the clothing is nice. +[2465.78 --> 2467.24] We've got lots of it around here. +[2467.68 --> 2469.60] And basically, you don't have to worry about it. +[2469.60 --> 2475.78] You do a quick survey, 60 seconds, and you enter your shoe size, and you kind of pick +[2475.78 --> 2476.90] a couple things that you think are good. +[2476.94 --> 2479.08] I did it in 54 seconds or something like that. +[2479.36 --> 2481.92] And then you are signed up and ready to rock. +[2482.14 --> 2483.18] So there you go, guys. +[2483.92 --> 2484.46] What's up? +[2484.64 --> 2485.38] I'm going to test it. +[2485.44 --> 2486.04] I'm going to see how fast I'm going. +[2486.04 --> 2487.04] You're going to see how fast you can do it? +[2487.06 --> 2487.54] On a laptop. +[2487.72 --> 2490.82] In the meantime, I actually have another giveaway. +[2491.02 --> 2492.18] So Squarespace is back. +[2492.26 --> 2495.92] Did you know that Squarespace is one of our longest running sponsors on the show? +[2496.06 --> 2496.78] I'm not surprised. +[2496.96 --> 2498.14] Our guys actually really like them. +[2498.42 --> 2498.66] Yeah. +[2498.66 --> 2501.36] And we use them both personally and for business. +[2501.82 --> 2503.06] So there you go. +[2503.16 --> 2504.00] Squarespace is awesome. +[2504.10 --> 2505.18] What do they actually do? +[2505.26 --> 2507.44] For those of you who still don't know, don't worry. +[2507.48 --> 2508.58] I'm not going to play the song again. +[2508.96 --> 2515.28] What Squarespace does is they have flexible, beautiful websites that are easy to use and +[2515.28 --> 2516.32] yet customizable. +[2516.80 --> 2521.90] All you got to do is sign up for a two-week trial over on squarespace.com slash Linus, +[2521.98 --> 2523.92] preferably, so I get credit for the referral. +[2524.46 --> 2528.64] And the idea is that whether people are browsing your site on a phone or on a phone, +[2528.64 --> 2532.36] on a PC or whatever kind of device, tablet, whatever, it's going to look good. +[2532.52 --> 2536.08] It's going to operate correctly, which can be a huge problem. +[2536.08 --> 2541.86] Even with mostly turnkey solutions that involve picking a theme and then uploading your own +[2541.86 --> 2544.74] content into it, it's going to be mostly functional. +[2544.80 --> 2545.58] Well, not mostly functional. +[2545.66 --> 2548.52] It will be functional unlike the other ones that are mostly functional and it'll look +[2548.52 --> 2549.10] good doing it. +[2549.14 --> 2550.24] The performance is good. +[2550.24 --> 2555.18] Even on things like our linusmediagroup.com site, I find, okay, I mean, this is cool. +[2555.28 --> 2557.08] I can operate my image slider with my touchscreen. +[2557.30 --> 2559.60] Stuff that I wouldn't have necessary... +[2559.60 --> 2560.28] How long did it take you? +[2560.34 --> 2560.96] 48 seconds. +[2560.96 --> 2564.30] And I sat on one question for a while and then remembered that I was timed and then +[2564.30 --> 2564.68] kept going. +[2565.18 --> 2565.64] So there you go. +[2565.70 --> 2567.10] It actually doesn't take very long. +[2567.18 --> 2567.46] It's pretty good. +[2567.46 --> 2568.56] You still have to enter your email and password. +[2569.16 --> 2570.58] So maybe that's your extra 12 seconds. +[2570.76 --> 2573.24] But anyway, the point is we love Squarespace. +[2573.44 --> 2574.12] We use them all the time. +[2574.18 --> 2576.84] They're inexpensive and we've even stress tested it. +[2577.04 --> 2579.40] We have taken down a lot of websites on the WAN show. +[2579.40 --> 2579.84] Yeah, we have. +[2579.94 --> 2581.04] We took down Noctua once. +[2581.04 --> 2581.48] Yeah, we did. +[2582.08 --> 2583.94] Which was kind of funny because we love Noctua. +[2584.24 --> 2587.00] Just by saying, hey guys, something, something, Noctua. +[2587.22 --> 2589.32] I wanted to show them a product or something, I think. +[2589.58 --> 2591.52] And everyone went there and the website went down. +[2591.60 --> 2596.82] We have never been able to take down a Squarespace website with the WAN show flooding it. +[2596.82 --> 2601.56] So as much as the plans are affordable, they can also scale depending on your needs. +[2601.68 --> 2606.72] Your portfolio, you can do a blog, you can do a store, lots and lots of different stuff +[2606.72 --> 2607.32] built into it. +[2607.34 --> 2610.34] It will take, like, naturally because it's a website, if you have zero visitors, then +[2610.34 --> 2612.02] you have 2,000, 5,000 visitors. +[2612.22 --> 2614.68] It might take, like, a second to catch up. +[2614.68 --> 2616.12] But we've never taken one down. +[2616.62 --> 2616.88] Yes. +[2616.96 --> 2619.38] We've slowed it down at the beginning and then it'll go like, oh, okay, I'm good. +[2619.46 --> 2620.52] And then it'll be able to manage it. +[2620.74 --> 2621.78] We've never actually taken one down. +[2621.78 --> 2626.00] That was actually pretty funny because that was a live demo where I'd never tested it before. +[2626.00 --> 2628.92] And I was like, let's see if we can take down minusmediagroup.com. +[2628.98 --> 2629.92] This will be a benchmark. +[2630.28 --> 2633.32] Because I do all kinds of stuff my sponsors hate on my show, I think. +[2633.46 --> 2634.76] Or have the potential to hate. +[2635.02 --> 2637.80] Misquoting, making them agree to give even more people clothes. +[2638.06 --> 2639.04] Stress testing them. +[2639.04 --> 2639.90] Stress testing websites. +[2640.02 --> 2641.02] Without them knowing it's coming. +[2641.40 --> 2645.54] And what happened was it just kind of, for about 5 seconds, 10 seconds, it was like... +[2645.54 --> 2647.26] And then it was fine. +[2647.40 --> 2647.50] Yeah. +[2647.50 --> 2648.58] All right. +[2648.72 --> 2650.42] So, the way to win. +[2650.70 --> 2652.76] Two weeks ago, we did a Squarespace giveaway. +[2653.06 --> 2655.36] You guys had to tweet with hashtag line of Squarespace. +[2655.70 --> 2657.24] So I love it when you guys tweet me. +[2657.34 --> 2658.38] Hashtag line of Squarespace. +[2658.68 --> 2659.76] Send me your trial sites. +[2659.94 --> 2662.16] Because you can get a two-week trial for free at any time. +[2662.44 --> 2665.42] And I said last week, in two weeks or two weeks ago, whatever. +[2665.64 --> 2668.52] The point is, Brandon Olson, you won. +[2669.28 --> 2669.76] Hooray. +[2669.84 --> 2670.24] Hooray. +[2670.98 --> 2671.50] Yay, Brandon. +[2671.50 --> 2673.22] So here's Brandon's website. +[2673.50 --> 2677.82] You can go ahead and you can check out his different pictures and stuff. +[2677.92 --> 2679.42] I don't actually know what any of this stuff is. +[2679.52 --> 2682.68] Apparently, some of it is like cutting hair and other stuff. +[2682.82 --> 2684.16] Oh, I guess it's probably a photographer. +[2684.48 --> 2684.50] Yeah. +[2684.54 --> 2687.50] I was just going to say, if he's a photographer, he takes really good photos. +[2687.50 --> 2687.88] Ah, yes. +[2687.98 --> 2688.34] Photography. +[2688.56 --> 2690.18] If he's a barber shop, I can't tell. +[2690.18 --> 2691.60] So we got some street stuff. +[2692.26 --> 2693.24] Here's like a market. +[2693.64 --> 2694.86] Look at the way it works. +[2694.90 --> 2695.96] And it actually works. +[2696.50 --> 2697.52] Oh, what are these? +[2697.62 --> 2698.78] Oh, I don't know if he said all this stuff. +[2698.86 --> 2699.24] Oh, okay. +[2699.32 --> 2699.44] Cool. +[2699.60 --> 2701.20] So it just takes that and it rotates it. +[2701.50 --> 2703.92] I haven't actually played around with all their different templates. +[2704.08 --> 2707.24] They have about 20 different templates, depending on what kind of a site you want. +[2707.46 --> 2709.74] And then they're all optimized to work in different ways. +[2709.78 --> 2710.46] But there you go. +[2710.84 --> 2712.22] Brandon Olson, enjoy. +[2713.18 --> 2716.14] And thank you very much for participating in our little giveaway here. +[2716.60 --> 2722.74] Speaking of giveaways, I am aware that we're doing the G550 draw on the show today. +[2722.86 --> 2724.66] And we will do it, but it will be later. +[2725.36 --> 2726.52] It will be at the end of the show. +[2726.84 --> 2730.22] So if you guys want to peace out and come back at the end of the show, that's fine. +[2730.22 --> 2733.08] If you want to watch it in the archive later, that's fine, too. +[2733.14 --> 2734.76] It's not going to affect your chances to win or anything. +[2735.38 --> 2736.68] But I'm just trying to say, guys. +[2736.68 --> 2736.86] I don't think it's fine. +[2737.30 --> 2738.34] You don't think it's fine? +[2738.42 --> 2741.08] No, I think if they want to watch it in the archive, I think they have to watch it twice. +[2741.34 --> 2742.32] They have to watch it twice? +[2743.40 --> 2744.94] They have to watch it live right now. +[2745.16 --> 2746.22] What the hell are you talking about? +[2746.22 --> 2749.00] This is how the internet works. +[2749.18 --> 2752.44] They can't close this tab or else they'll break the entirety of the internet. +[2753.06 --> 2753.28] All right. +[2753.30 --> 2756.92] So anyway, guys, thanks to our sponsors, 5-4 and Squarespace, for making this show possible. +[2757.04 --> 2759.04] Without sponsors, we can't make this show. +[2759.42 --> 2760.80] I mean, we could, but we'd have no money. +[2761.46 --> 2763.00] And then we wouldn't be able to make the show anymore. +[2763.02 --> 2767.62] We'd be like in the garage wearing parkas because it's so cool. +[2768.02 --> 2768.26] Okay. +[2768.34 --> 2771.80] You should not say stuff like that because of how many people have been like, +[2771.80 --> 2774.86] I really liked the show when you were in the garage with parkas. +[2775.54 --> 2776.50] It was... +[2776.50 --> 2778.04] We were legitimately uncomfortable. +[2778.48 --> 2779.58] It was not good. +[2781.24 --> 2782.72] It's like, that actually sucked. +[2782.98 --> 2783.46] It did. +[2784.04 --> 2784.88] We were cold. +[2785.00 --> 2787.58] We weren't wearing them because we were Canadian and making a joke. +[2787.86 --> 2788.10] Yeah. +[2788.60 --> 2789.56] Now it's the opposite. +[2789.74 --> 2790.86] Now we're like, what the hell, Canada? +[2790.94 --> 2791.70] Why is it so hot? +[2791.88 --> 2792.46] I know. +[2792.56 --> 2793.90] It's so hot in this room. +[2794.42 --> 2795.72] I'm not buying air conditioning, though. +[2796.16 --> 2799.50] We're paying for the electricity for air conditioning that is purchased for you. +[2799.88 --> 2800.50] That's right. +[2800.98 --> 2801.42] Ridiculous. +[2801.80 --> 2802.24] Anyways. +[2802.64 --> 2804.22] I'm basically a terrible person. +[2805.16 --> 2805.64] Alright. +[2805.90 --> 2807.30] So we've got our next story here. +[2807.40 --> 2809.38] The LG G3 Beat. +[2810.96 --> 2811.40] Really? +[2811.82 --> 2812.26] Why? +[2813.10 --> 2816.22] I mean, when I heard this, look at this. +[2816.56 --> 2819.64] Ads for the Highlander shirt all over my internet. +[2820.62 --> 2821.62] That's so funny. +[2821.74 --> 2821.90] Okay. +[2821.96 --> 2823.08] Does anyone else get those? +[2823.96 --> 2825.00] Like, is anyone else fancy? +[2825.16 --> 2826.20] I'm asking the... +[2826.20 --> 2826.46] Oh, no. +[2826.54 --> 2828.34] I've heard from people on the forum and stuff. +[2828.44 --> 2828.82] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2828.98 --> 2829.76] That's so cool. +[2829.76 --> 2833.32] Yeah, and people on Twitch chat last week were like, yeah, yeah, it's all over my internet. +[2833.54 --> 2834.66] I'm just like, that's awesome. +[2834.76 --> 2835.22] That's so cool. +[2835.22 --> 2838.12] So that's for the Teespring campaign to get a commemorative Highlander shirt. +[2838.22 --> 2839.32] There's four days left. +[2839.32 --> 2841.94] Actually, we upgraded the hoodies. +[2842.32 --> 2843.34] Is that done now? +[2843.34 --> 2843.92] Yeah, it's done. +[2844.20 --> 2848.18] So we didn't change the price of the hoodies, but they're now Canvas Something hoodies instead +[2848.18 --> 2848.96] of Gildan hoodies. +[2849.32 --> 2851.24] So I'm picking up a hoodie when I get a minute. +[2851.26 --> 2851.96] I'm getting at least one then. +[2851.96 --> 2852.18] Yeah. +[2852.18 --> 2854.46] Because those look a fair bit nicer. +[2854.54 --> 2856.80] I love how it's an out of number that makes no sense. +[2857.04 --> 2859.14] Yeah, 346 sold out of 150. +[2859.66 --> 2862.52] So it's teespring.com slash Highlanderland if you guys want to check that out. +[2862.70 --> 2864.56] We already hit the target, so no pressure. +[2864.88 --> 2867.50] We are definitely shipping them, and I'm super excited about that. +[2867.58 --> 2869.38] Anyway, so the LG G3 Beat. +[2869.44 --> 2872.96] When I first heard this name, I kind of went, okay, LG G3 Beat. +[2872.96 --> 2878.64] So it's probably like a music-optimized version of it, because HTC did that, where they had +[2878.64 --> 2880.72] like, it was just a software layer or something. +[2882.68 --> 2887.90] I thought it was legitimately like, they're like, oh yeah, there's some phone that's better +[2887.90 --> 2888.84] than the LG G3. +[2889.34 --> 2890.80] I didn't even think it was an LG phone. +[2890.80 --> 2892.38] So you thought Beat sounded better. +[2892.88 --> 2894.72] Oh, LG G3 Beat. +[2895.72 --> 2898.06] Because you know how sometimes people title things? +[2898.84 --> 2902.94] There's a news way of titling something, and you can say, LG G3 Beat. +[2902.96 --> 2904.28] Beat, as in something was- +[2904.28 --> 2910.52] So this headline, if you missed the capitalized B, it reads, LG G3 Beat with 5-inch HT display, +[2910.90 --> 2912.66] laser autofocus camera goes official. +[2913.12 --> 2914.04] It's like, what does that actually mean? +[2914.04 --> 2917.84] It sounded kind of weird, but I thought it was something had beat the LG G3. +[2918.10 --> 2919.66] And I started reading it, and I was like, oh, what? +[2920.08 --> 2922.24] And because the photo, they look so similar. +[2922.40 --> 2923.12] Yeah, they look basically the same. +[2923.12 --> 2925.98] I thought it might have just been a zoom out of the same phone or something. +[2926.08 --> 2926.26] Right. +[2926.84 --> 2928.48] Yeah, it did not catch on right away. +[2928.58 --> 2929.38] All right, so here we go. +[2929.38 --> 2934.66] It's got a 5-inch HD, so that is 720p IPS display. +[2934.84 --> 2937.30] And again, back to the iPhone 6. +[2937.62 --> 2939.16] I don't mind that. +[2939.56 --> 2944.66] I don't think it's perfect, but it's so much better than not 720p. +[2944.76 --> 2946.92] So whatever we were using before, something by 480. +[2947.12 --> 2948.86] It's so much better than that. +[2948.86 --> 2952.84] Yeah, that distance, or that difference, sorry, is extremely drastic. +[2952.86 --> 2953.62] I'm okay with it. +[2953.82 --> 2957.98] They're talking about the screen-to-body ratio, although I think they mean percentage, +[2958.26 --> 2961.42] of 74.1% screen to the rest body. +[2961.66 --> 2967.26] So it's very much about the screen experience, just like the G3 with its very slim bezels. +[2967.78 --> 2971.70] The specs have been significantly downgraded, so you still get the laser-focused camera, +[2971.70 --> 2973.74] but you don't get a 13-megapixel rear camera anymore. +[2973.84 --> 2975.02] It's 8 megapixels now. +[2975.46 --> 2979.06] And the processing power is, like, basically in the toilet. +[2979.16 --> 2985.02] 1.2 gigahertz, Cortex-A7, Adreno 305 GPU, only 1 gig of RAM compared to 2 or 3, +[2985.14 --> 2989.16] depending on the storage capacity of the bigger one, and only 8 gigs of internal memory +[2989.16 --> 2994.44] with a 2540 mAh battery that is fortunately also still user-removable. +[2994.64 --> 2996.54] It still has a microSD expansion slot. +[2997.02 --> 3004.98] And basically, I guess what I have to say here is this either validates HTC's strategy +[3004.98 --> 3010.92] with the One Mini and the One Mini 2, where they take that same high-end build quality +[3010.92 --> 3016.84] and look and that aluminum design, and in order to cost it down enough to really make any difference, +[3016.84 --> 3021.46] especially for someone buying on contract, they put way lower-end specs, +[3021.54 --> 3026.08] because honestly, those chips are not that much of the cost of a phone. +[3026.22 --> 3027.40] Like, it's a factor. +[3027.98 --> 3032.38] But just by downgrading the CPU, like in a computer, for example, +[3032.86 --> 3038.18] downgrading the CPU and GPU alone, you can reduce the price of a PC by half, +[3038.34 --> 3042.08] depending on what you're looking at, versus, like, a very high-end PC versus a low-end one. +[3042.24 --> 3042.56] Easy. +[3042.96 --> 3044.78] With a phone, that's not the case. +[3044.78 --> 3049.88] We're talking about maybe they shave, you know, 20, 30, 40 bucks off the bomb cost. +[3050.00 --> 3054.78] That's not the difference between an $800 flagship phone and a $399 phone. +[3054.98 --> 3059.22] So when they keep that build quality in there, they can't really drive the price down that much. +[3059.26 --> 3061.04] That's why low-end phones are plastic and stuff. +[3061.12 --> 3066.78] So this either validates HTC's strategy of delivering much lower specs but still a really nice feel, +[3067.02 --> 3070.90] or it's LG going down that same disastrous path, I guess. +[3071.14 --> 3071.42] Yeah. +[3071.60 --> 3072.68] It remains to be seen. +[3072.68 --> 3074.66] You had a really interesting note here, though. +[3075.26 --> 3075.54] Yeah. +[3075.54 --> 3077.36] I want to jump into the skin performance. +[3077.48 --> 3077.80] Yeah. +[3077.98 --> 3082.88] With the One Mini 2, one of the articles I was looking at, I think it was the Verge article, +[3083.00 --> 3085.18] pointed out that the One Mini 2 is... +[3085.18 --> 3085.96] I don't want to... +[3085.96 --> 3086.88] Okay, whoever it was. +[3086.94 --> 3087.88] I don't remember if it was the Verge. +[3087.90 --> 3090.34] I was reading up on it, and they basically made an interesting point. +[3090.40 --> 3093.64] They said, the One Mini 2 is still a good phone. +[3093.64 --> 3100.26] Even older smartphone specs, and we've gotten to that point now, can still deliver a really good experience. +[3100.26 --> 3113.08] But the issue that I worry about here is that LG's skin is not as lightweight as Sense, or just a stock Google experience like what you have on the Moto G, +[3113.24 --> 3116.16] which is also a very low-spec phone that still performs okay. +[3116.16 --> 3123.02] My wife's been using one for the last few months now, and she does complain about it, but it's usable. +[3123.20 --> 3124.92] It's not like her old phone or anything like that. +[3125.24 --> 3132.62] So I worry, based on that LG's skin is not that lightweight if performance is going to be okay on the G3B. +[3132.62 --> 3134.32] That is pretty interesting. +[3135.02 --> 3136.32] Whoa, that was a loud knock. +[3137.46 --> 3138.88] I don't know. +[3139.18 --> 3142.92] The skin is interesting, but then at the same time, they could have a lighter weight skin. +[3143.28 --> 3143.80] I doubt it. +[3143.90 --> 3144.54] I doubt it. +[3144.54 --> 3144.88] They could. +[3145.12 --> 3147.36] Because there's certain things that are significantly lower. +[3147.48 --> 3154.36] Like in my G3 review, I show multitasking on HTC versus LG, and their multitasking is really versatile. +[3154.62 --> 3157.38] You can zoom in and zoom out and stuff, depending on how many things you want to see. +[3157.80 --> 3158.58] But it's heavy. +[3158.88 --> 3160.28] It takes a while to load. +[3160.28 --> 3163.80] It's something that I noticed before I did a side-by-side comparison. +[3164.82 --> 3166.06] That's never a good sign. +[3166.10 --> 3167.20] Yeah, it's a big difference. +[3167.60 --> 3167.74] Yeah. +[3168.44 --> 3168.84] Interesting. +[3169.08 --> 3169.68] I don't know. +[3170.04 --> 3175.64] It's something that they said in here, though, is the smartphone manufacturers cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers +[3175.64 --> 3178.90] who want the best balance of looks, features, performance, and, of course, price. +[3180.82 --> 3185.26] I like how he says that while his company is jumping on that bandwagon at the same time. +[3185.62 --> 3189.18] Basically, we cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers. +[3190.28 --> 3190.76] Yes. +[3190.94 --> 3193.42] Either way, I think they're right. +[3193.58 --> 3198.08] It's getting to the point where a lot of people don't need the flagship phones. +[3198.26 --> 3201.80] For a while there, you basically needed to get a flagship phone, or else you're getting a piece of crap. +[3201.88 --> 3202.42] That's true. +[3202.88 --> 3205.08] But the issue is that that's not even true anymore. +[3205.08 --> 3213.88] So now consumers are being forced to choose between something with okay build quality, something like a Nexus 5, but bleeding-edge specs, +[3214.08 --> 3221.28] versus something that's going to have LG G3 or HTC One-type aluminum backing, like that kind of stuff that really does cost a lot of money, +[3221.68 --> 3225.12] and much, much lower-end specifications. +[3225.12 --> 3227.88] I mean, the killer for me is the 8 gigs of onboard storage. +[3229.86 --> 3232.54] I can live with 16 gigs as long as I have SD expansion. +[3233.04 --> 3233.14] Yeah. +[3233.52 --> 3233.64] Yeah. +[3234.02 --> 3237.26] But then a lot of apps are not going to want to live off that SD card. +[3237.40 --> 3237.56] Yeah. +[3237.64 --> 3238.22] And even... +[3238.22 --> 3238.96] Yeah, exactly. +[3239.22 --> 3242.02] And games are getting bigger and bigger all the time on Android. +[3242.28 --> 3242.48] Yeah. +[3242.48 --> 3252.32] I mean, there's that rumor on the street about, you know, some Android gaming device that may or may not be surfacing at some point in the near future. +[3252.66 --> 3259.14] I can't say anything, because when I don't know anything, I can speculate. +[3259.86 --> 3263.22] So anyway, something that may or may not be coming at some point. +[3264.68 --> 3266.58] I mean, Android is a valid gaming platform. +[3266.96 --> 3268.00] You look at... +[3268.00 --> 3270.90] I do most of my gaming on Android, even if I'm using GameStream. +[3271.06 --> 3271.70] I was just going to say. +[3271.70 --> 3273.30] No, not Android games. +[3273.42 --> 3273.62] Yeah. +[3273.80 --> 3278.26] But what needs to happen is game developers need to get on board the whole Android thing, +[3278.46 --> 3283.10] but we need devices that are really delivering a great Android gaming experience, and it's that whole chicken and egg thing. +[3283.24 --> 3283.38] Yeah. +[3283.60 --> 3288.00] Speaking of chicken and egg things, Mozilla is attempting to improve JPEG. +[3288.10 --> 3289.26] How do you like that segue? +[3289.26 --> 3289.76] I like that. +[3289.86 --> 3291.24] That was a very interesting segue. +[3291.48 --> 3291.56] Thank you. +[3291.56 --> 3293.94] But I like what they're doing here a lot, because... +[3293.94 --> 3294.38] Yes! +[3295.10 --> 3297.54] This is so much better than Google's approach. +[3297.62 --> 3299.18] It is so much better than Google's approach. +[3299.18 --> 3304.14] It makes so much more sense, because Google's promoting something that is only kind of work on their ecosystem. +[3304.14 --> 3309.48] Okay, we should say what Mozilla's doing first, then we'll slam Google for being dumb. +[3310.06 --> 3311.26] So what's Mozilla doing? +[3311.58 --> 3315.28] Mozilla is making a new compression library for JPEG. +[3315.40 --> 3316.34] So where is it called? +[3316.78 --> 3318.38] Moz JPEG 2.0. +[3318.46 --> 3319.74] M-O-Z JPEG 2.0. +[3319.74 --> 3325.04] Which will work for when you're compiling JPEGs, but then it's read in the exact same way. +[3325.10 --> 3328.12] So everything that reads JPEGs right now can read it just totally fine. +[3328.42 --> 3335.82] It'll take a slightly longer amount of time to create that JPEG, but then reading it is faster. +[3336.62 --> 3340.78] So that's awesome, because it takes, like, no time to create one right now at all. +[3341.78 --> 3342.34] So... +[3342.34 --> 3343.58] So, should be fine. +[3343.58 --> 3348.04] If it takes ever so slightly longer than basically non-existent, I think it's okay. +[3348.66 --> 3351.54] And if it's making, where is it, 30% smaller or something? +[3351.82 --> 3353.04] I think it's about 5 to 15. +[3353.04 --> 3353.82] 5 to 15% smaller. +[3354.04 --> 3358.34] Which isn't as good as Chrome's approach, but it actually works with everything. +[3358.78 --> 3358.96] Yeah. +[3359.04 --> 3359.94] Which is pretty important. +[3359.94 --> 3364.36] And I mean, making images smaller on the web isn't the end of the world these days anymore. +[3364.60 --> 3365.52] Like, it used to be that... +[3365.52 --> 3366.18] It can still help. +[3366.18 --> 3370.64] Loading images was the bulk of, you know, web traffic. +[3370.82 --> 3371.52] Whereas now it's video. +[3371.92 --> 3372.28] Yes. +[3372.80 --> 3377.76] But at the same time, we're running into things like Imgur, Imgur, whatever you want to say, +[3377.86 --> 3381.10] where instead of having a few images on the website and that being an issue, +[3381.44 --> 3383.48] now it's the whole website is just images. +[3383.70 --> 3385.08] So that I can actually take a little bit. +[3385.08 --> 3390.70] So even another, let's take the average, even another 10% faster, another 10% less bandwidth +[3390.70 --> 3393.94] used by those images, it's all going to be really positive stuff. +[3393.96 --> 3397.98] This can really help people that are in, say, Australia, that have terrible, +[3398.12 --> 3400.78] crap-tastic internet or other random areas around the world. +[3400.90 --> 3402.68] Like, we complain about our internet all the time. +[3403.16 --> 3408.82] Then mods that I have in the mod chat post a screenshot of their speed test. +[3409.00 --> 3410.26] And I'm just like... +[3410.26 --> 3411.32] Sad face. +[3411.40 --> 3413.52] My internet is god-like compared to yours. +[3414.18 --> 3414.70] So, yeah. +[3414.70 --> 3420.02] So, by comparison, Google's been pushing their WebP, which is a still image derivative +[3420.02 --> 3424.06] of their WebM codec, which actually is better. +[3424.28 --> 3425.54] I mean, technically it's better. +[3425.72 --> 3429.14] We're looking at up to 30% smaller images with WebP. +[3429.50 --> 3432.38] But the problem, and Facebook did an experiment. +[3432.62 --> 3436.04] Facebook, the kings of experimenting with things just randomly, +[3436.38 --> 3439.74] did an experiment where they started serving up pages with WebP. +[3439.74 --> 3443.98] And the problem was that no browsers other than Chrome or Opera supported it. +[3444.20 --> 3449.74] And then problem number two is that a lot of people use Facebook as cloud storage. +[3450.10 --> 3453.98] So, they actually upload their photos because they don't care about pixel-perfect quality +[3453.98 --> 3455.14] being preserved forever. +[3455.34 --> 3458.96] So, they're just uploading their photos to Facebook and then downloading them as they need them. +[3458.96 --> 3463.56] They were downloading these WebP photos and none of their local file viewers were able to look at them. +[3463.56 --> 3469.80] That's a big issue in my opinion because I don't necessarily use Facebook as web photo storage. +[3469.88 --> 3470.60] I never have. +[3470.88 --> 3474.62] But I have downloaded images off Facebook when I'm like, say, +[3474.78 --> 3479.00] I need a new Twitter banner and the Facebook thing is really wide. +[3479.00 --> 3483.52] So, like, my brother's Facebook thing or my mom's Facebook thing, +[3483.66 --> 3487.10] if she wants a Twitter banner, I can be like, yeah, just go to your Facebook one, +[3487.22 --> 3491.62] right-click on it, view image, save image, upload it again to Twitter, and it's probably fine. +[3492.82 --> 3497.16] Considering so many different websites are moving to this, like, wide, big banner kind of style, +[3497.26 --> 3500.54] you can just bounce them across each other and you can do that from any location +[3500.54 --> 3502.76] if you have them on one of those services. +[3503.28 --> 3505.80] So, being unable to download them again is kind of dumb. +[3505.80 --> 3510.26] So, I mean, maybe a long time in the future, +[3510.44 --> 3514.48] but you look at how long it takes to really move the dial on a web standard, +[3514.74 --> 3516.28] I mean, Flash is still here. +[3516.94 --> 3517.34] Why? +[3517.42 --> 3522.20] It's still causing browser crashes for me on a regular basis. +[3522.60 --> 3525.38] Everyone else was like, wow, Mozilla's screwing up right now. +[3525.42 --> 3526.88] And then I was like, wow, no, it's not. +[3526.96 --> 3530.18] I'm just at, like, 98% or 95% RAM usage. +[3530.64 --> 3532.28] A gig of that was Flash. +[3533.32 --> 3535.70] It's like, wow, really? +[3535.80 --> 3536.02] Yeah. +[3537.10 --> 3537.66] Why? +[3538.66 --> 3539.48] Go away. +[3539.52 --> 3541.06] I have, like, one YouTube video open. +[3541.14 --> 3541.72] What are you doing? +[3542.64 --> 3543.06] Yeah. +[3543.46 --> 3549.36] So, I mean, I see something like the JPEG improvements as a much more feasible way +[3549.36 --> 3552.02] to actually achieve something versus... +[3552.02 --> 3553.74] So, Mozilla's trying to achieve something real, +[3554.00 --> 3560.36] and Google's trying to achieve something that will hopefully be realistic in the future, +[3560.48 --> 3561.24] maybe, or something. +[3561.48 --> 3561.74] Yeah, maybe. +[3562.00 --> 3564.28] So, I'm sure they could make Photo Viewer work with WebP. +[3564.28 --> 3573.38] Speaking of things that right now are not really a thing, but could be really important in the future. +[3573.80 --> 3574.42] Project... +[3574.42 --> 3575.22] See, another segue. +[3575.38 --> 3575.74] Bam! +[3575.88 --> 3576.08] Boom. +[3576.08 --> 3576.62] Got those segues. +[3576.62 --> 3577.62] Anyways. +[3577.62 --> 3581.12] Project ARA dev board ships later this month. +[3581.12 --> 3583.10] So, the signup is actually closed now. +[3583.10 --> 3589.74] Yesterday was the last opportunity to sign up, and Google is evaluating who gets the equipment +[3589.74 --> 3594.24] based on how interesting their idea is, as well as something else. +[3594.24 --> 3596.80] So, basically, they're actually going through all these submissions. +[3596.80 --> 3601.54] But for those of you who need a refresher, Project ARA is the modular smartphone concept. +[3601.98 --> 3605.14] Now, this is a concept image right here of, like... +[3605.14 --> 3606.00] Remember, phone blocks. +[3606.08 --> 3607.98] So, this is the real version of that. +[3608.22 --> 3613.18] So, this concept image right here shows backings of something that looks like a phablet with these +[3613.18 --> 3618.78] modules that plug into it and are going to communicate via a standardized interface so that +[3618.78 --> 3621.78] whatever type of module you're plugging in, they'll all be able to communicate with each other, +[3622.10 --> 3624.78] and they'll all be able to communicate, ultimately, with you. +[3624.78 --> 3626.52] Here's a smaller one. +[3626.70 --> 3627.94] Here's some just random modules. +[3628.40 --> 3630.22] Well, I mean, this is the state it's in now. +[3631.94 --> 3633.28] So, we're not there yet. +[3634.30 --> 3634.64] Epic. +[3635.28 --> 3641.06] But, they'll be shipping the second round of hardware sometime in the fall, I believe. +[3641.62 --> 3642.02] Yes. +[3642.12 --> 3643.16] First round is in. +[3643.80 --> 3647.74] First round is soon, and then second hardware release with multiple application processors +[3647.74 --> 3648.50] will be in the fall. +[3648.72 --> 3654.22] Right now, it's not even close to ready, so this is very much like plug things in and see +[3654.22 --> 3658.62] if they work stage, but it shows that they are still working on the project. +[3658.78 --> 3660.14] They are still serious about this. +[3660.56 --> 3662.00] And, I mean, okay. +[3663.08 --> 3666.48] Initially, what I said about this was it's not going to make sense for anything but the +[3666.48 --> 3666.82] low end. +[3666.82 --> 3674.06] By the time it actually sees the light of day, I might be totally wrong. +[3674.94 --> 3678.62] Because we're getting to the point where, like, the spec bumps don't feel them as much? +[3678.64 --> 3678.66] Yeah. +[3678.66 --> 3682.92] We're getting to the point where we can continue to miniaturize things, but a phone is largely +[3682.92 --> 3685.58] fast enough for most of the things you're going to want to do with it today. +[3686.16 --> 3689.74] Which, I mean, if we're talking about walking around with a phone and 3D mapping an environment... +[3689.74 --> 3692.64] Yeah, and stuff like gaming is always going to get harder. +[3692.98 --> 3696.16] But when you talk about it's fast enough to do things you want to do today, a lot of people, +[3696.66 --> 3703.40] when you reference that, is calling, texting, very basic kind of text applications and photo +[3703.40 --> 3707.20] applications like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, that kind of stuff. +[3707.36 --> 3712.12] So when I said basic, I think I had the wrong concept in my mind. +[3712.12 --> 3714.40] I was thinking basic today basic. +[3715.52 --> 3719.04] Whereas basic by then will probably be this basic. +[3719.92 --> 3721.28] High end today basic. +[3721.44 --> 3723.98] And so I'm a lot more excited about it. +[3724.00 --> 3729.76] Especially if we see technologies like that second, however many seconds it was, they could +[3729.76 --> 3731.02] charge a Galaxy S4. +[3731.44 --> 3735.52] Like if we see improvements in charging technology, improvements in battery technology, to the point +[3735.52 --> 3741.36] where you can make something that isn't that bulky and really is legitimately modular, that +[3741.36 --> 3744.94] isn't so slow, that it's only usable for basic calling and texting functionality. +[3745.34 --> 3747.80] I'm a lot more excited about it now than I was before. +[3748.08 --> 3750.52] So right now it's running on a fork of Android. +[3750.64 --> 3755.22] Like it doesn't even run on regular Android because they had to Frankenstein it to allow +[3755.22 --> 3756.82] hot swapping of components. +[3757.04 --> 3758.36] I mean, that's the kind of thing. +[3758.44 --> 3762.90] Guys, your phone freaks out if you unplug a micro SD card unexpectedly. +[3762.90 --> 3765.02] It's like, yo dog, please don't do that. +[3765.02 --> 3771.50] Whereas if we're talking about unplugging a camera, I mean, the amount of app dependencies +[3771.50 --> 3773.44] on any piece of hardware like a camera. +[3773.52 --> 3777.36] I mean, you install any app and it goes, this app has access to this, this, this, this, this, +[3777.36 --> 3777.64] this, this. +[3777.64 --> 3780.94] You start pulling out your GPS module in the middle of, right? +[3781.44 --> 3783.44] It's going to be like, ah, no. +[3783.44 --> 3786.98] There's a lot of stuff that needs to be figured out before this really happens, but I'm a +[3786.98 --> 3788.54] lot more excited about it than I was before. +[3789.00 --> 3794.04] Speaking of things that are designed to generate hype, Sony and Microsoft are talking about +[3794.04 --> 3797.30] early access game sales on consoles. +[3797.86 --> 3803.34] Now, neither of them is announcing that they're doing it now. +[3803.50 --> 3804.88] That's not what's happening right now. +[3804.88 --> 3809.92] What they've basically said is, look, we're having serious internal discussions about this. +[3809.92 --> 3817.18] We've seen what a big deal this has been on the PC with Steam allowing games to allow early, +[3817.32 --> 3819.90] allow players to pay for early access to them. +[3820.34 --> 3825.54] But I think they recognize, like hopefully everyone recognizes that there are still some +[3825.54 --> 3828.56] serious problems with this model. +[3829.22 --> 3832.76] So the benefits are obvious, I guess. +[3832.98 --> 3834.52] The developer gets feedback. +[3834.52 --> 3838.88] I mean, even EA is recognizing the benefits. +[3838.88 --> 3839.78] Okay, hold on. +[3839.88 --> 3840.76] One step back. +[3840.82 --> 3844.82] You look at Star Citizen, where they're being extremely open about the development process. +[3845.28 --> 3847.84] Here's the roadblock we're stuck with right now. +[3848.14 --> 3853.74] Here's the milestone that, unfortunately, we keep not hitting because we're actually sharing +[3853.74 --> 3858.96] the internal targets with you guys instead of padding it the way that a game developer +[3858.96 --> 3859.76] would normally do. +[3859.88 --> 3860.32] Okay. +[3860.50 --> 3867.22] So there's that completely crowdfunded project and then crowd interactive development process. +[3867.22 --> 3868.38] Then there's the next step. +[3868.50 --> 3872.74] There's what EA finally has opened their eyes to, what they did with the Battlefield Hardline +[3872.74 --> 3876.46] beta, where they went, okay, we want people to play this game. +[3876.84 --> 3881.22] We want to know that it works properly before we ask for people's money. +[3881.68 --> 3885.58] Then there's early access. +[3885.58 --> 3891.26] And so the benefits of developers getting feedback before they release a game are great, especially +[3891.26 --> 3897.56] on the PC, where so many game-breaking bugs can have to do with obscure hardware configurations. +[3898.40 --> 3902.02] But the problem is asking for people to pay for beta software. +[3903.70 --> 3907.46] Paying for early access is a big problem to me. +[3907.52 --> 3908.90] It used to be so cool. +[3908.90 --> 3909.76] Yes. +[3909.88 --> 3913.70] Like I used to like when you had to sign up for a beta, it was like this huge resume +[3913.70 --> 3914.18] process. +[3914.74 --> 3918.86] And one of the sections, which was always extremely important, was what games have you +[3918.86 --> 3920.00] done betas for before? +[3920.32 --> 3920.52] Yeah. +[3920.64 --> 3923.32] And like how engaged are you in betas and like all this kind of stuff. +[3923.34 --> 3924.08] And it was a big deal. +[3924.12 --> 3927.24] And if you got into a beta for something, like it was a... +[3927.24 --> 3927.32] Wow. +[3927.52 --> 3928.20] It was cool. +[3928.24 --> 3929.88] You know, like you were a cool dude. +[3930.26 --> 3930.52] Yeah. +[3930.58 --> 3933.52] And people were like, oh, holy crap, you've betaed for all these different games. +[3933.98 --> 3934.82] And it's like, yeah, yeah. +[3934.82 --> 3936.66] And you learn like how to test things. +[3936.68 --> 3937.76] And it was actually kind of interesting. +[3938.02 --> 3942.24] There was one point in time where beta testing games could have gone on a resume. +[3943.42 --> 3943.78] Right. +[3943.88 --> 3946.62] Like the fact that you were accepted into all these different betas because it could have +[3946.62 --> 3947.24] gone on a resume. +[3948.08 --> 3950.08] Now you buy into it. +[3951.04 --> 3952.16] Like what? +[3953.30 --> 3954.32] What, what, what, what, what? +[3954.42 --> 3957.84] We took that hype of like, yeah, I got into a beta. +[3957.94 --> 3958.70] This is super cool. +[3958.88 --> 3963.42] And turned it into, it's just generally cool to be into betas. +[3963.42 --> 3965.68] Which made it so that betas weren't betas anymore. +[3965.88 --> 3967.66] And you look at Gmail beta. +[3968.08 --> 3968.34] Yeah. +[3968.54 --> 3972.74] Gmail, Minecraft beta where things last forever and it makes no sense. +[3973.04 --> 3974.68] And then they started charging you for it. +[3974.68 --> 3976.24] And it devalues the beta word. +[3976.38 --> 3978.36] Like it's, it's taken the meaning out of the beta word. +[3978.50 --> 3980.04] Beta used to mean it's not finished. +[3980.36 --> 3983.80] Now beta seems to mean it's, well, it's mostly finished. +[3983.88 --> 3986.16] We're just not quite ready to call it finished. +[3986.36 --> 3989.62] We're, we're getting, we're done, but we're getting your feedback and we're going to tweak +[3989.62 --> 3992.86] things so that when we release it, everyone sees it as being very good. +[3992.86 --> 3998.20] And the problem with that, actually the problem with that, with betas working too well, is +[3998.20 --> 4003.18] it changes the, the customer's perception of what a beta is and it changes their expectations +[4003.18 --> 4004.12] of what a beta is. +[4004.28 --> 4008.38] So all of a sudden they kind of expect a beta to be mostly there. +[4008.74 --> 4010.64] Like a beta, sure, beta software works. +[4010.74 --> 4011.16] No big deal. +[4011.22 --> 4013.24] I'll run beta software on my PC all day long. +[4013.54 --> 4018.00] And then developers recognize this change in perception and go, oh, well, why don't we +[4018.00 --> 4019.04] just charge them for it then? +[4019.04 --> 4019.08] Okay. +[4020.00 --> 4024.58] And I mean, Valve has warnings like, look, if you buy into early access, you should buy +[4024.58 --> 4026.90] it because you're really excited about the title or something. +[4026.96 --> 4030.70] I forget the wording exactly, but they basically go, look, they might not ever get finished, +[4030.86 --> 4032.66] but why is that acceptable? +[4032.88 --> 4033.12] Yeah. +[4033.12 --> 4035.36] And I mean, okay, okay, okay. +[4035.40 --> 4036.26] Why is it acceptable? +[4036.54 --> 4036.76] Yeah. +[4036.96 --> 4039.74] But then the, the flip side of that is, is it really any different from what we have +[4039.74 --> 4040.02] today? +[4040.58 --> 4042.78] Where the development process is mostly closed. +[4042.90 --> 4047.16] They released the game and you pay for it and it wasn't done. +[4047.16 --> 4052.64] So basically we're just giving them our money at the same point in the development cycle. +[4052.64 --> 4054.00] We're just calling it something different. +[4054.32 --> 4057.14] That's why I often don't buy release games anymore. +[4057.28 --> 4059.72] I used to be all about buying release games and pre-ordering stuff. +[4059.78 --> 4063.48] I know that sounds weird, but honestly, at one point in time, that was fine. +[4063.60 --> 4066.06] We need to do a shirt that's like, I paid for this. +[4066.54 --> 4068.62] And then this just needs to like trail off. +[4069.62 --> 4071.02] That's actually not a bad one. +[4071.32 --> 4071.52] Yeah. +[4071.70 --> 4072.72] Okay, guys, let us know. +[4072.72 --> 4076.60] Maybe we'll do another Teespring campaign instead of throwing it up on the other store. +[4076.62 --> 4083.72] Or you can buy like the, the, oh, you could, oh, what if you did like a release and I, I +[4083.72 --> 4088.36] paid for this and have part at the end, a different color and then have like an index +[4088.36 --> 4089.80] and have it be like release and DLC. +[4093.02 --> 4094.46] Yeah, we got, we got to come up with something. +[4094.54 --> 4098.08] Let us know on Twitch chat if you need us to do a, if you need us to do a beta shirt, +[4098.14 --> 4100.40] because I think that would be pretty freaking awesome. +[4100.42 --> 4101.40] I funded this beta. +[4101.40 --> 4102.76] I funded this beta. +[4107.30 --> 4109.28] So I guess that Luke's shirts are getting smaller and smaller. +[4109.40 --> 4111.76] No, this shirt has just consistently been small. +[4112.00 --> 4112.32] Yeah. +[4113.72 --> 4118.12] Because you're bigger than, well, you've been kind of getting kind of jacked lately. +[4118.34 --> 4118.72] So there's that. +[4118.72 --> 4118.82] A little bit. +[4119.74 --> 4120.10] Okay. +[4120.14 --> 4122.20] I don't think there's anything else I had to say on the beta thing. +[4122.26 --> 4123.94] I think the punchline was what it was. +[4124.02 --> 4128.76] It was, is anything really changing if we just get people to pay for betas? +[4128.82 --> 4129.32] No, not really. +[4129.32 --> 4129.84] Nope. +[4130.10 --> 4132.26] Because it's going to be broken or it's going to be broken. +[4132.50 --> 4138.66] Speaking of things never changing, it's like the ISPs want us to keep having negative things to say about them. +[4138.78 --> 4138.88] What? +[4138.98 --> 4139.08] Oh. +[4139.08 --> 4140.94] This is brutal. +[4141.12 --> 4141.96] It's on the register. +[4142.46 --> 4145.62] Guys, you have to listen to this at some point. +[4146.02 --> 4153.44] You know what's the funny thing about it is Comcast is backpedaling and saying, oh, we're very upset that the customer was treated in this manner. +[4153.44 --> 4160.68] This is a recording of about an eight minute customer support call where someone tried to call in and cancel their service. +[4160.78 --> 4162.56] And they're like, oh, we're really embarrassed about this. +[4162.80 --> 4172.44] They've said nothing about disciplining the employee because as listening to the recording, I am sure the employee was 100% doing everything right. +[4173.34 --> 4174.72] They were probably instructed to work. +[4174.72 --> 4182.96] They were probably instructed to work in exactly this way because the employee doesn't tell the customer, doesn't call the customer an asshole or something. +[4182.96 --> 4188.28] Like the employee is polite, sort of, throughout the whole thing. +[4188.32 --> 4193.14] Other than talking over the customer and repetitively asking the same stupid questions. +[4193.78 --> 4199.80] Like, well, you know, if our service is superior and faster, are you saying that you'd like to have an inferior service? +[4200.04 --> 4203.52] And then when the guy just tries to say, like, no, I just want to cancel the service. +[4203.68 --> 4205.16] I don't have to answer this question. +[4205.52 --> 4205.86] Well, what? +[4205.92 --> 4207.80] So then you're saying you want an inferior service? +[4208.18 --> 4209.92] Our competitor can't give you what we give you. +[4209.92 --> 4212.42] And he kind of goes, okay, sure, I want an inferior service. +[4212.42 --> 4218.54] And the customer service, the CSR is like, oh, well, why would you want an inferior service? +[4218.62 --> 4220.04] I mean, let's listen to what you're saying. +[4220.22 --> 4224.64] Like, you know, please and thank yous are all in there. +[4224.82 --> 4228.82] But talking over the customer in this disrespectful manner is not cool. +[4229.18 --> 4229.28] No. +[4229.92 --> 4233.66] But that's, I'm certain, what they were instructed to do. +[4233.80 --> 4236.78] I don't like RISPs, but I don't think it would have been that bad. +[4237.30 --> 4238.02] They'll push you. +[4238.14 --> 4240.72] Yeah, I've canceled service with RISPs and R-Telcos. +[4240.80 --> 4241.54] It's nothing like that. +[4241.54 --> 4242.22] No, no. +[4242.30 --> 4242.82] They'll push you. +[4242.90 --> 4243.58] They'll ask you why. +[4243.66 --> 4245.22] But if you're like, I just don't want it. +[4245.28 --> 4245.80] I just don't want it. +[4245.88 --> 4247.26] They'll be like, oh, okay. +[4247.82 --> 4248.70] Really aggressive. +[4248.92 --> 4249.60] And they'll cancel it. +[4249.80 --> 4253.80] And just like one of the highest pressure sales techniques that I've ever encountered. +[4254.54 --> 4255.90] And yeah. +[4256.46 --> 4256.62] So. +[4257.26 --> 4257.42] Like Shaw. +[4257.54 --> 4257.70] Okay. +[4257.80 --> 4258.58] Shaw called me. +[4258.80 --> 4259.00] Yeah. +[4259.08 --> 4260.02] Because I used to have Shaw. +[4260.18 --> 4263.64] And then where I'm living now, the landlord has internet already. +[4263.64 --> 4266.52] So they're like, oh, you canceled Shaw. +[4266.82 --> 4267.78] Was there like a reason? +[4267.94 --> 4268.66] Did you not like it? +[4268.74 --> 4269.52] Do you have too many outages? +[4269.62 --> 4269.96] Like what? +[4270.06 --> 4271.02] Why did you cancel Shaw? +[4271.18 --> 4273.48] And I was like, oh, I moved somewhere and they have it already. +[4273.84 --> 4275.14] Like, oh, so you don't want it anymore? +[4275.24 --> 4275.70] I was like, well. +[4276.22 --> 4277.46] I moved somewhere and I have it already. +[4277.64 --> 4278.30] I have it already. +[4278.38 --> 4279.56] Like I'm using it. +[4279.62 --> 4283.58] I'm just not paying for it because the person that owns the building is already paying for it. +[4283.58 --> 4285.14] And they're like, oh, okay. +[4285.58 --> 4286.62] Hopefully use this in the future. +[4286.70 --> 4287.60] I was like, yep. +[4288.00 --> 4288.32] Okay. +[4288.32 --> 4288.58] Bye. +[4288.94 --> 4290.60] Like it was really not a big deal. +[4290.68 --> 4294.10] They didn't try to push and be like, no, you have to like get your own blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[4294.20 --> 4295.40] Which I don't know. +[4295.46 --> 4295.84] But whatever. +[4295.84 --> 4304.22] It felt just like the worst thing about, you know, trying to shop for a car or trying to shop for insurance +[4304.22 --> 4306.04] or like those kinds of things. +[4306.14 --> 4311.34] It felt like I had a Primerica presentation in my kitchen when I was listening to this thing. +[4313.22 --> 4313.84] That's brutal. +[4313.90 --> 4314.64] Which I did recently. +[4314.98 --> 4316.46] Long story why they were there. +[4316.80 --> 4320.74] But I'll have to tell you offline because, yeah. +[4321.60 --> 4322.00] Ouch. +[4322.18 --> 4323.18] Yeah, it was really annoying. +[4323.22 --> 4324.60] I've lost a couple of friends to that. +[4324.82 --> 4325.10] Yeah. +[4325.66 --> 4326.66] Not like, I don't mean. +[4326.66 --> 4327.28] I went to a presentation. +[4328.24 --> 4329.34] I've gone to one as well. +[4329.36 --> 4329.46] Yeah. +[4329.46 --> 4330.96] But I got tricked into going to one. +[4331.18 --> 4332.28] No, I knew where I was going. +[4332.50 --> 4332.96] I didn't. +[4332.96 --> 4333.56] I had no idea. +[4333.56 --> 4337.74] I had a weird idea that it might have been something to do with that, but I had no idea. +[4337.78 --> 4337.90] Yeah. +[4337.94 --> 4340.54] I was fresh out of high school and someone was like, blah, blah, blah. +[4340.80 --> 4341.94] You know, there's this thing. +[4342.08 --> 4342.58] Fresh out of high school. +[4342.70 --> 4343.06] That sounds right. +[4343.18 --> 4350.38] I hadn't caught on to the whole, if they refuse to tell you what you're selling, then you probably +[4350.38 --> 4351.52] shouldn't be selling it yet. +[4352.06 --> 4353.64] So they were just like, no, no, no. +[4353.66 --> 4354.40] We can't tell you anything. +[4354.48 --> 4355.32] You have to just come to the presentation. +[4355.44 --> 4356.48] So I kind of sat through the presentation. +[4356.60 --> 4358.48] I kind of went, okay, it's Pyraminsky. +[4358.88 --> 4360.58] And then that was about the end of that. +[4360.58 --> 4364.48] I had contacted a friend that I hadn't talked to since high school. +[4364.80 --> 4366.08] And I was like, we should hang out sometime. +[4366.22 --> 4368.52] And they were like, yeah, you should come to my work. +[4368.62 --> 4370.06] We're having a work thing. +[4370.20 --> 4371.60] And we're allowed to bring plus ones. +[4372.00 --> 4373.64] We're encouraged to bring plus ones. +[4373.64 --> 4374.88] Like, it's good. +[4374.94 --> 4375.78] I should be bringing people. +[4375.92 --> 4378.24] I'm like, okay, sure. +[4378.50 --> 4380.86] And then day up, they're like, oh, yeah, like, wear something nice. +[4380.94 --> 4382.28] Like, it's fairly formal. +[4382.46 --> 4384.04] I was like, okay. +[4384.26 --> 4386.50] So that's when I had that, like, one red and black suit. +[4386.58 --> 4386.98] Do you remember that? +[4387.32 --> 4387.44] Yes. +[4387.44 --> 4389.80] So I put that on, which is, like, super formal. +[4389.80 --> 4390.58] Way over the top. +[4390.58 --> 4390.94] Oh, yeah. +[4391.04 --> 4392.32] Like, way over the top. +[4392.36 --> 4393.48] Because it's the only thing I have. +[4393.76 --> 4396.96] And I show up and, like, they haven't told me what they do. +[4397.66 --> 4400.68] And I've asked them multiple times what it's about, all this kind of stuff. +[4401.02 --> 4402.32] And I show up. +[4402.34 --> 4403.84] And then I'm like, oh, this is your work. +[4403.88 --> 4404.40] This is weird. +[4404.46 --> 4406.30] It's in, like, a storage unit complex. +[4408.50 --> 4409.66] This is really odd. +[4409.66 --> 4414.08] Which, ironically, isn't as bad as your old office in my house. +[4414.64 --> 4415.08] Gosh. +[4417.40 --> 4418.32] But, yeah. +[4418.48 --> 4422.14] And then I sit down and I realize that it's not, like, just some work. +[4422.50 --> 4424.28] There's the reception desk. +[4424.42 --> 4426.74] And then there's the, like, presentation room. +[4426.96 --> 4428.24] There's no working area. +[4428.36 --> 4429.44] And I'm like, oh, God. +[4430.10 --> 4431.52] I'll just sit through this and then go home. +[4431.86 --> 4432.20] Yeah. +[4432.94 --> 4433.22] Yeah. +[4434.24 --> 4434.60] Okay. +[4434.74 --> 4439.80] So SanDisk apparently is reporting that their SSD sales have soared. +[4440.36 --> 4443.22] That alone isn't really that newsworthy. +[4443.34 --> 4444.40] There's an article on the register. +[4444.76 --> 4446.50] So, bloopity bloop, there's the one. +[4448.22 --> 4450.34] That, to me, isn't the huge thing about it. +[4450.48 --> 4456.18] But what is interesting to me about it is the way that we're finally seeing capacities take another jump. +[4456.18 --> 4465.40] SanDisk is talking about 4TB and 2TB, like, terabyte class, multi-terabyte class SSDs that might be very, very expensive right now. +[4465.52 --> 4467.44] But prices are continuing to fall. +[4467.60 --> 4470.84] They're talking about how their volumes are increasing. +[4470.84 --> 4475.98] So their actual revenues are up, even though profits are not really sort of increasing in the same manner. +[4476.12 --> 4478.12] So we're seeing it become commoditized. +[4478.26 --> 4479.92] We're seeing it become more affordable. +[4480.32 --> 4483.46] So that's the whole point of this, is it's getting more affordable. +[4483.82 --> 4485.26] It's really, really exciting. +[4486.26 --> 4495.92] SSDs are the, maybe they're not the future, but they're at least the immediate sort of transitional phase between hard drives and whatever the future ends up being. +[4495.92 --> 4499.08] And that's pretty much all that I have to say about that. +[4499.48 --> 4502.58] Next big, oh, this is, this is, this really sucks. +[4502.88 --> 4503.14] Oh. +[4503.60 --> 4508.98] Microsoft cutting, or cut 18,000 jobs. +[4509.12 --> 4512.92] Which is 14% of their global workforce. +[4513.20 --> 4514.16] Holy crap. +[4514.26 --> 4516.78] I mean, that's basically like me cutting one employee. +[4516.78 --> 4521.50] No, not to make light of the situation. +[4521.70 --> 4523.62] That is absolutely incredible. +[4523.84 --> 4525.00] I mean, I understand. +[4525.40 --> 4529.48] So this was originally posted on the forum by Jozle and the original articles from the BBC. +[4529.66 --> 4530.86] There's a number of sources on it. +[4531.28 --> 4539.76] I understand, you know, right sizing or streamlining or, or whatever the case may be. +[4539.76 --> 4546.02] But I just find it interesting that they kind of shoveled a whole bunch of it under the Nokia thing. +[4546.54 --> 4549.36] So they're like, yeah, we're getting rid of people because of the Nokia merger. +[4549.74 --> 4551.68] Actually, a lot of other people as well. +[4551.96 --> 4552.36] Yeah. +[4553.18 --> 4557.16] So I guess that's really, that's really all there is to say about it. +[4557.22 --> 4560.90] So they, they're kind of, it's 18,000 over the next year. +[4561.32 --> 4564.04] So it's not all like everyone's job is gone. +[4564.34 --> 4566.88] The mass majority of it's going to be over the next six months though. +[4566.88 --> 4571.32] But it's one of those things where it's easy for us to kind of see these kinds of job cuts and go, +[4571.44 --> 4574.04] oh, okay, well, you know, they, they did this or they did that. +[4574.10 --> 4579.36] But it's a lot harder to look at it and go, okay, well, someone we know and like and respect lost their job. +[4579.54 --> 4582.58] So Barnacles is one of our fellow YouTubers. +[4582.96 --> 4585.14] This was posted by the Double Y Gamer on the forum. +[4585.34 --> 4588.68] Just a series of tweets from him kind of going, holy cow. +[4589.22 --> 4590.88] I got blindsided by this. +[4591.20 --> 4592.52] Didn't expect this at all. +[4592.52 --> 4597.94] But Barnacles was one of the, one of the casualties in Microsoft cutting all these jobs. +[4598.08 --> 4600.06] So you should definitely check them out on YouTube. +[4600.38 --> 4603.98] Barnacles one, numerical one on YouTube. +[4603.98 --> 4605.42] Or if you just search for Barnacles. +[4605.78 --> 4606.82] That should be a secondary account. +[4607.04 --> 4607.26] Then. +[4607.42 --> 4608.78] Barnacles numerical one. +[4609.96 --> 4610.66] Numerical one. +[4610.76 --> 4611.02] No. +[4611.46 --> 4613.84] If you had a secondary account, it should be Barnacles two. +[4613.98 --> 4614.14] Nope. +[4614.66 --> 4615.40] That's stupid. +[4615.52 --> 4617.08] That's the stupidest thing you've said today. +[4617.18 --> 4617.84] Barnacles numerical one. +[4617.84 --> 4625.60] Stupidest isn't even a word, which some people will go, no, the person calling something the stupidest thing ever is stupid because they're using not even a word. +[4625.72 --> 4630.74] But actually, I'm saying it very intentionally to emphasize how stupid it is. +[4630.80 --> 4631.44] It's so stupid. +[4631.54 --> 4632.40] It shouldn't even be real. +[4633.00 --> 4633.38] There. +[4634.38 --> 4634.82] Done. +[4635.14 --> 4636.10] That was very well put. +[4636.40 --> 4637.12] I'll take that. +[4637.12 --> 4637.78] The Millennium Bug returns. +[4638.36 --> 4640.10] So this is, this is pretty funny. +[4640.36 --> 4641.98] I can't believe this. +[4642.02 --> 4644.00] Posted on the forum by Johnners. +[4644.00 --> 4645.26] But this is, this is great. +[4645.26 --> 4660.08] So the selective service system mistakenly sent notices to more than 14,000 Pennsylvanian men born between 1893 and 1897, ordering them to register for the nation's military draft and warning that a failure to do so is punishable by a fine and imprisonment. +[4660.82 --> 4665.56] What they actually meant was 1993 to 1997. +[4666.22 --> 4668.60] So Y2K strikes again. +[4668.60 --> 4671.08] Oh, like, I can't even believe. +[4671.30 --> 4676.82] I love how they're like, yeah, they, they accepted that it was wrong and they just told people just to ignore it if it shows up. +[4677.22 --> 4680.44] I'm like, that's actually going to be possibly traumatic for certain people. +[4680.62 --> 4681.40] I would think so. +[4681.48 --> 4681.74] Yeah. +[4681.82 --> 4684.64] Like, that's going to be not good at all. +[4684.64 --> 4696.34] Because I, I wouldn't even be surprised if there's people in that group that possibly passed away in duty that are now getting drafted. +[4696.80 --> 4697.24] Yeah. +[4697.40 --> 4698.18] I mean, it's, it's. +[4698.20 --> 4700.10] And like, their spouses might still be alive or something. +[4700.32 --> 4701.60] It's, it's, it's super not cool. +[4701.70 --> 4707.40] I mean, the error occurred because the state uses a two-digit code to indicate, um, to indicate the date. +[4707.40 --> 4712.88] And digital systems go back far enough that those people were alive when this code was implemented. +[4713.06 --> 4715.86] Like, all this stuff, I, I, I still, I don't understand. +[4715.98 --> 4719.38] Like, I still see stuff that uses two-digit date codes. +[4719.86 --> 4722.62] And it's like, haven't we figured out that this is a problem yet? +[4722.66 --> 4724.20] We all just need to stop doing this. +[4724.78 --> 4725.88] Use real dates. +[4726.14 --> 4727.94] We have really big storage now. +[4728.34 --> 4728.74] It's okay. +[4728.84 --> 4729.38] It's fine. +[4729.48 --> 4729.68] Just. +[4729.86 --> 4730.98] The extra two characters. +[4731.22 --> 4732.22] Just take the two more characters. +[4732.28 --> 4733.16] Probably fine. +[4733.26 --> 4733.92] It'll be okay. +[4733.92 --> 4744.10] Speaking of two characters, The Last of Us have remastered on the PS4 is going to allow you to lock the frame rate at 30 FPS. +[4744.34 --> 4748.22] Now, to be clear, by default, it will run at 1080p 60p. +[4748.22 --> 4769.64] And I am definitely a huge advocate for consoles giving the user the option to control the graphical fidelity settings so that they can choose whether they want, you know, more particles to kick around on the floor or whether they prefer to run at a more consistent frame rate or at a higher resolution or whatever else the case may be. +[4769.64 --> 4774.90] But the one concern that this brings up, so this was posted by Dietrich W in the forum. +[4774.98 --> 4791.94] The one concern that this raises for me is if you're at 60 FPS and they're acknowledging that, and they're giving you the option to lock at 30 FPS because there is no cinematic gameplay reason to play a game at 30 FPS. +[4791.94 --> 4793.70] Put that out of your mind. +[4794.08 --> 4802.98] If they're giving us that option, are they basically saying, well, it could be dipping below 60 FPS often enough that it might bother some people to the point where they'd rather play at a lower frame rate? +[4803.38 --> 4811.08] I rebuttal this a little bit by saying that one of the lead developers was talking about how amazing it was to play it in 60 FPS. +[4811.54 --> 4814.26] So I don't really think it's going to be that big of an issue. +[4814.48 --> 4815.00] It could be. +[4815.00 --> 4821.30] But then I've always been one of those divatastic people who basically dials in my graphics settings based on worst case scenario. +[4821.64 --> 4821.74] Yep. +[4822.22 --> 4829.16] And people will often make this argument, well, you don't need to run your game at 95 FPS because your monitor only supports 60 FPS. +[4829.40 --> 4830.54] It's not really the point. +[4831.00 --> 4838.44] The point is those times when it dips are usually the times when a bunch of dudes jump out at you. +[4838.76 --> 4839.76] That's how it works. +[4840.22 --> 4842.78] When there's more objects on screen, that's when your frame rate dips. +[4842.78 --> 4850.36] So that's why it's important to run at an average frame rate of 100 FPS so that when shit gets real, you're ready. +[4851.18 --> 4853.62] And everything runs at 60 even though it never dips below. +[4853.84 --> 4857.28] That's why in star season when you're staring at the floor, you can get like 150. +[4857.76 --> 4862.34] And then if you look up in a deluxe hangar that has a ton of ships in it, you can go down to like 10 or 15. +[4863.04 --> 4867.12] Like, it can be a lot harder to run different parts of different games. +[4867.20 --> 4869.36] And G-Sync will alleviate this quite a lot. +[4869.46 --> 4870.62] More than I expected. +[4870.62 --> 4876.32] 40 FPS looks pretty good on a G-Sync monitor when you're not dealing with any stuttering or tearing. +[4876.72 --> 4876.76] Yeah. +[4876.86 --> 4879.74] But, well, maybe 40 might be a little bit on the low side. +[4879.80 --> 4881.18] 45 looked pretty good though. +[4881.84 --> 4882.54] It's still, yeah. +[4882.84 --> 4883.04] Yeah. +[4883.34 --> 4884.06] It's interesting. +[4884.48 --> 4886.62] And then the... +[4887.96 --> 4889.62] Yeah, let's not... +[4889.62 --> 4891.12] Just no case. +[4891.66 --> 4892.30] Did you... +[4892.30 --> 4893.68] We rejected the Tesla Model 3? +[4893.82 --> 4894.40] That's exciting. +[4894.50 --> 4895.76] We talked about it last week. +[4895.88 --> 4896.34] Oh, did we? +[4896.48 --> 4896.66] Yeah. +[4896.66 --> 4897.96] Yeah, but we called it the Model E. +[4898.88 --> 4900.32] Oh, so we can talk about that name change. +[4900.32 --> 4902.36] Yeah, so we can talk about how Elon Musk is like... +[4902.36 --> 4916.22] So, yeah, Ford like ruined our whole plan to have the sex lineup of cars with the Model S, the Model E, and the Model X by threatening a lawsuit over the Model E naming or something. +[4916.34 --> 4917.34] So we're calling it the 3. +[4918.52 --> 4919.68] So it's like close enough. +[4919.70 --> 4920.50] He is so funny. +[4920.50 --> 4923.26] I think he found some way to still make it work or something. +[4923.52 --> 4924.04] Where was it? +[4924.26 --> 4924.76] Yeah, the S... +[4924.76 --> 4928.90] Yeah, S3, which is three I's and then an X. +[4930.10 --> 4931.24] Yeah, I don't know. +[4931.86 --> 4932.72] What a funny guy. +[4932.82 --> 4933.96] I mean, who does that? +[4934.76 --> 4935.78] Because you can't... +[4935.78 --> 4941.72] Someone that smart who's paying that much attention to everything, there's no way he didn't know that the letters weren't going to spell sex. +[4942.02 --> 4942.24] Mm-hmm. +[4943.20 --> 4943.60] Awesome. +[4943.86 --> 4944.04] Guaranteed. +[4944.36 --> 4944.84] I love it. +[4944.90 --> 4945.58] I think he's hilarious. +[4945.88 --> 4946.20] Me too. +[4946.38 --> 4947.36] I like Musk a lot. +[4948.34 --> 4949.58] He's kind of awesome. +[4949.58 --> 4952.00] I think that's pretty much it from my side. +[4952.18 --> 4953.46] There's other stuff, but it's just... +[4953.46 --> 4953.52] Yeah. +[4953.78 --> 4954.14] I don't know. +[4954.18 --> 4955.24] None of it seems that exciting. +[4955.52 --> 4955.62] Yeah. +[4955.70 --> 4956.58] So... +[4956.58 --> 4960.32] Totally not great. +[4960.46 --> 4961.60] Totally not a drum roll. +[4961.60 --> 4961.92] For the laptop. +[4962.86 --> 4963.28] Oh. +[4964.10 --> 4964.68] That's okay. +[4964.84 --> 4969.24] The laptop that's like trying really hard to keep itself alive. +[4969.48 --> 4971.30] I may replace this laptop. +[4971.62 --> 4972.10] With what? +[4972.34 --> 4973.70] Four gigs of RAM isn't enough. +[4974.26 --> 4974.92] And you can't upgrade? +[4975.02 --> 4975.86] I might just get a new... +[4975.86 --> 4976.06] No. +[4976.18 --> 4976.80] No, soldered on. +[4976.80 --> 4978.62] I might just get a new Gen XPS 12. +[4978.62 --> 4980.72] Speaking about soldered on... +[4980.72 --> 4981.38] What? +[4981.54 --> 4981.84] No. +[4982.98 --> 4984.58] Nothing soldered onto that laptop. +[4984.86 --> 4985.74] No, I didn't mean that. +[4985.82 --> 4986.90] I meant the blade. +[4987.24 --> 4987.60] The blade. +[4987.70 --> 4988.16] That's why... +[4988.16 --> 4988.32] Oh. +[4988.78 --> 4989.82] That's why I'm personally... +[4989.82 --> 4991.14] No, I already shipped the blade back. +[4991.36 --> 4991.56] Yeah. +[4991.68 --> 4994.78] I was tempted to just not ship it back and just be like, what are you going to do? +[4995.60 --> 4996.48] What are they going to do? +[4996.56 --> 4998.54] Stop seeding me review samples? +[4998.82 --> 4999.06] No. +[4999.06 --> 5002.88] What they could have done was they could have turned that into like an advertising campaign. +[5003.88 --> 5008.38] It's like, our laptop is so good that this guy won't send it back. +[5008.38 --> 5015.10] But if they publicized what I did, then they'd be opening up the floodgates for other reviewers to just not send things back. +[5016.10 --> 5018.68] Or also they could send like the Razor SWAT crew. +[5020.12 --> 5021.38] Not real SWAT. +[5021.38 --> 5024.84] They could show up with like water guns and raid the house. +[5024.94 --> 5026.98] That would actually be kind of hilarious. +[5027.82 --> 5031.58] Except it could cause real problems because like, yeah. +[5032.46 --> 5033.82] Yeah, that would... +[5033.82 --> 5036.42] I mean, fake SWATing is never funny. +[5036.70 --> 5038.18] Even if they're armed with water guns. +[5038.54 --> 5039.80] So I would definitely see that being a problem. +[5039.80 --> 5046.16] But if you call the head, like if they call the head and like informed the police and like it was set up and we probably knew. +[5046.24 --> 5047.78] They would have to inform us. +[5047.94 --> 5050.22] It would basically, the whole thing would just have to be completely staged. +[5050.24 --> 5051.26] Everyone would have to know. +[5051.60 --> 5057.44] It would have to be like realistic looking SWAT uniforms with like bright yellow and orange water guns. +[5058.22 --> 5059.42] So everyone knows it's fake. +[5059.78 --> 5060.18] Yeah. +[5060.70 --> 5062.74] But then you're, it's not even that funny anymore. +[5062.74 --> 5063.26] Okay, anyway. +[5063.56 --> 5065.92] So speaking of things that aren't that funny anymore. +[5065.92 --> 5073.82] Making you guys wait any longer for the drawing of the signed ROG G550 JK gaming notebook. +[5074.02 --> 5078.44] So it's signed by all the Highlander video personalities that were the tops of me. +[5078.56 --> 5085.58] Logan, Kane, Luke, Austin, Paul, and Kyle all signed to the bottom of this unit. +[5086.06 --> 5087.98] And it can be yours. +[5088.38 --> 5089.80] So we are going to draw it live. +[5089.98 --> 5090.72] Random.org. +[5090.82 --> 5092.62] So we have 611 pages. +[5093.24 --> 5094.18] Oh, okay. +[5094.18 --> 5101.18] Whatever we draw live here, guys, if we find that your entry wasn't valid, so we go back and make sure that your entry was valid. +[5101.38 --> 5102.54] I'll be inspecting accounts. +[5102.68 --> 5103.82] I'll be inspecting posts. +[5103.82 --> 5104.28] He'll be digging. +[5104.38 --> 5107.24] Don't tell them what you're inspecting because we don't want them to know what we're looking for. +[5107.26 --> 5107.78] I'm not telling them how. +[5108.02 --> 5108.26] Oh, okay. +[5108.92 --> 5110.78] Basically, we have a process. +[5111.24 --> 5112.30] You won't get away with it. +[5112.58 --> 5114.42] So we may do a redraw. +[5114.58 --> 5117.56] Stay tuned on Twitter if the original winner ends up not being valid. +[5117.70 --> 5118.58] But here we go, guys. +[5118.66 --> 5119.00] Drum roll. +[5119.00 --> 5124.82] So the way that we do it is first we draw a random page on random.org. +[5124.82 --> 5129.06] Then we draw a random poster on said random page. +[5129.14 --> 5130.92] So I think it's 20 posts per page. +[5131.10 --> 5131.24] Yep. +[5131.80 --> 5132.90] 20 posts per page. +[5133.26 --> 5135.24] Here we go. +[5136.68 --> 5138.04] Page 341. +[5138.04 --> 5138.42] Hold up. +[5138.64 --> 5142.84] Give everyone a little bit of time so they can figure out if they're on page 341. +[5142.96 --> 5143.40] Sure. +[5143.48 --> 5143.90] Okay. +[5143.90 --> 5144.92] I have one super anxious. +[5145.60 --> 5145.92] Okay. +[5146.00 --> 5147.94] I'm just terrorizing everybody right now. +[5147.96 --> 5148.28] Okay. +[5148.38 --> 5148.66] All right. +[5148.70 --> 5149.32] We will do that. +[5149.82 --> 5150.18] Okay. +[5150.30 --> 5160.02] So it could be TonyTang66, Pinnin, Fikri Farhan, Cameron Schultz, Legola Dex, Slymanski. +[5160.62 --> 5162.44] Oh, it won't be Slymanski. +[5162.60 --> 5163.14] No, it's Slymanski. +[5163.16 --> 5163.60] Sorry, dude. +[5163.60 --> 5178.90] Mr. Moshpit101, Shookalate, Rangnur, Eithlater, Shineval, Aiden Chu, Ethorn, Lightcam, Nick45101. +[5179.28 --> 5180.10] It better not be our Nick. +[5180.16 --> 5180.68] Yeah, seriously. +[5180.80 --> 5181.48] I can check that. +[5182.78 --> 5186.52] Fiktuiziklaister or Joe1134206. +[5186.52 --> 5187.80] There is so many Joes. +[5188.52 --> 5188.74] Yeah. +[5189.12 --> 5189.58] So many. +[5189.72 --> 5190.10] All the Joes. +[5190.12 --> 5191.26] Incredible amount of Joes. +[5191.80 --> 5192.20] Okay. +[5192.20 --> 5194.42] So now we will go from one to 20. +[5203.30 --> 5203.66] Nine. +[5204.44 --> 5204.82] Okay. +[5204.92 --> 5206.08] So let's count them. +[5206.98 --> 5212.04] One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. +[5212.36 --> 5214.74] Do you double count the guy that was in there twice? +[5215.22 --> 5216.24] I guess we already picked Brick. +[5216.24 --> 5218.66] Yeah, because we're picking a random one based on pulse count. +[5218.90 --> 5219.34] Then we're going to validate. +[5219.34 --> 5219.94] 20 on a page. +[5220.02 --> 5220.26] Good point. +[5220.26 --> 5220.36] Yeah. +[5220.46 --> 5224.42] So that way the double entries don't affect anyone else's chance to win. +[5224.46 --> 5224.60] Yeah. +[5224.76 --> 5224.88] Yeah. +[5225.66 --> 5226.74] So there it is. +[5226.86 --> 5227.50] You won. +[5228.62 --> 5229.26] Good job. +[5230.72 --> 5231.04] Yay. +[5231.04 --> 5234.42] So I'll send a PM through the forum, which is how our giveaways work. +[5235.56 --> 5236.08] All right. +[5236.18 --> 5236.56] Congratulations, everyone. +[5236.56 --> 5238.54] What are we going to do if that person doesn't respond? +[5238.94 --> 5239.60] To respond to what? +[5239.88 --> 5240.64] The PM on the forum. +[5242.22 --> 5243.10] Then we'll redraw it. +[5243.26 --> 5243.46] Okay. +[5243.62 --> 5243.80] Yeah. +[5244.06 --> 5244.26] Okay. +[5244.60 --> 5245.40] So stay tuned on Twitter. +[5245.54 --> 5247.14] I was more asking for like... +[5247.14 --> 5249.52] I can't believe how many people are watching WAN show today. +[5249.62 --> 5250.54] Thank you so much, guys. +[5250.64 --> 5252.64] We peaked near 6,000. +[5252.78 --> 5252.90] Yeah. +[5252.94 --> 5253.58] We broke a record. +[5253.68 --> 5255.02] Our last record was about 5,500. +[5255.42 --> 5255.76] Wow. +[5255.88 --> 5256.60] You guys are incredible. +[5256.82 --> 5257.94] Thank you so much for watching. +[5258.38 --> 5260.26] I think that's pretty much it for the show. +[5260.64 --> 5266.32] For those of you upset that it's someone who only posted once, the giveaway is for Linus +[5266.32 --> 5267.90] Tech Tips YouTube viewers. +[5268.62 --> 5272.64] We are using the forum as a mechanism for hosting the giveaway. +[5273.38 --> 5280.90] Someone who has one post on the forum could be a long-time loyal viewer of our videos. +[5281.04 --> 5283.74] Even a big commenter on the YouTube instead of on Facebook. +[5284.12 --> 5284.30] Yeah. +[5284.68 --> 5289.70] So just because they don't post a lot on linustechtips.com doesn't mean they're not a member of our community. +[5289.98 --> 5292.14] So let's try not to be all butthurt about that. +[5292.14 --> 5297.62] And if they're not logging on to the community that much, you have a higher chance that they won't answer the PM and that there's going to be a redraw. +[5297.62 --> 5298.28] That's right. +[5298.56 --> 5299.68] So we did think of this. +[5300.26 --> 5300.66] All right. +[5300.82 --> 5301.42] Peace out, guys. +[5301.52 --> 5302.10] Thanks for watching. +[5302.18 --> 5302.80] And we'll see you again. +[5302.92 --> 5304.62] Same bat time, same bat channel next week. +[5304.78 --> 5305.46] Bye, everyone. +[5308.58 --> 5309.68] Why is that still there? +[5310.40 --> 5311.06] There we go. +[5319.30 --> 5320.40] Yeah, someone's comment. +[5320.40 --> 5324.12] The International's on and there's like 6,000 people watching us. +[5324.50 --> 5324.86] Winner! +[5325.26 --> 5326.38] You guys are awesome. +[5327.62 --> 5330.04] That multi-switch. +[5331.36 --> 5331.64] Yeah. +[5332.22 --> 5333.10] Yeah, I know, right? +[5334.52 --> 5338.40] For us to make the assumption that they're all just watching this would be... +[5338.40 --> 5341.74] Maybe not super accurate. +[5341.74 --> 5344.64] Maybe not super accurate. +[5344.94 --> 5347.40] It's absolutely perfect. +[5347.50 --> 5347.90] I love it. +[5347.90 --> 5352.02] Hopefully, I'll show you guys a protected... +[5352.02 --> 5356.06] Make your choice a catch w rap environment. +[5356.06 --> 5356.46] Here,bert Sunday, old old old old old little boy. +[5356.46 --> 5359.48] What you called, quantitative days with fl immersing newman? +[5359.48 --> 5361.64] And p speaks to the coverage of his favorite hat. +[5361.64 --> 5363.42] Especially, somehow, I learned more to go with it. +[5363.46 --> 5364.34] Absolutely so. +[5364.34 --> 5365.02] Fly through my life here, my favorite thing is, it's fine. +[5365.02 --> 5366.08] So i thought it Ingredterror. +[5366.12 --> 5366.98] Isn't exactly

We're having some internet difficulties over here. +[8.00 --> 20.00] The funny thing about it is that we've actually got two ISPs here, one of which is our fiber connection and the other of which is our cable connection. +[20.00 --> 30.00] And the cable connection, we were having an issue with those guys where they actually turned us off for about a month because we were going over our bandwidth allotment. +[30.00 --> 32.00] They were supposed to turn us off for a weekend. +[32.00 --> 38.00] Yeah, it was supposed to be for a weekend and then they just didn't so whatever, that's cool I guess. +[38.00 --> 45.00] And then the fiber connection is just not sending any UDP packets right now. +[45.00 --> 50.00] So it's TCP only, which means like, very little. +[50.00 --> 51.00] Ping and Skype. +[51.00 --> 54.00] Yeah, not a whole lot we can do on that one. +[54.00 --> 57.00] So we're like trying to find a solution here. +[57.00 --> 58.00] Oh right, right, right. +[58.00 --> 65.00] So when our cable provider turned the internet back on, the issue that we had with them is that they haven't put us in bridge mode. +[65.00 --> 80.00] So it's our modems acting as a router, but then it's not because our switch here isn't working and the wireless on it isn't on and I have no idea what the username and password is to log into it. +[80.00 --> 84.00] And then like, I was like, okay, well, maybe they maybe it's in bridge mode now. +[84.00 --> 87.00] So I plugged in a router and then whatever. +[87.00 --> 90.00] So long story short, we're live now. +[90.00 --> 92.00] Thank you guys for tuning into the WAN show. +[92.00 --> 94.00] We've got a bunch of great topics for you today. +[94.00 --> 98.00] I hope I have actually done very little of my usual due diligence. +[98.00 --> 102.00] So Luke will be in charge of making sure that the show isn't a total waste of everyone's time. +[102.00 --> 107.00] The best part about that is that I did very little of my usual due diligence. +[107.00 --> 114.00] In our defense, he was sick this week. +[114.00 --> 116.00] I. +[118.00 --> 119.00] It's a holiday. +[119.00 --> 121.00] Yeah, it's a holiday today. +[121.00 --> 122.00] It's a stat. +[122.00 --> 123.00] Neither of us are getting paid for this. +[123.00 --> 124.00] Yeah, I shouldn't be here at all. +[124.00 --> 125.00] So. +[125.00 --> 126.00] Nope. +[126.00 --> 127.00] Bam. +[127.00 --> 128.00] There you go. +[128.00 --> 129.00] What Wi-Fi? +[129.00 --> 130.00] Oh, right, right. +[130.00 --> 131.00] So we have to tether. +[131.00 --> 133.00] We have to tether to get the Wi-Fi. +[133.00 --> 135.00] Can't you just you should just be able to. +[135.00 --> 136.00] Shoulda, woulda, coulda. +[136.00 --> 137.00] Not working. +[137.00 --> 138.00] Yeah. +[138.00 --> 142.00] It's like, why is life so difficult? +[142.00 --> 147.00] I just want to make it really clear that it is not the fault of our sponsor, Asus, +[147.00 --> 149.00] that our network is not working. +[149.00 --> 150.00] No. +[150.00 --> 151.00] The laptops are fine. +[151.00 --> 152.00] The laptops are good. +[152.00 --> 155.00] In fact, our review of this particular laptop is coming out very soon. +[155.00 --> 160.00] And I think you guys will be quite impressed with the performance that we were able to +[160.00 --> 163.00] get out of a portable device. +[163.00 --> 168.00] But in the meantime, we're just going to have to actually do a show for you here, guys. +[168.00 --> 173.00] So I am waiting for the document to load up so that I can. +[173.00 --> 174.00] There it goes. +[174.00 --> 178.00] So that I can tell you what we're going to talk about. +[178.00 --> 183.00] So the NSA has reportedly been using Heartbleed for years. +[183.00 --> 185.00] Shock and awe. +[185.00 --> 186.00] Yeah. +[186.00 --> 194.00] We could be looking at 10G Wi-Fi, which is pretty darn impressive. +[194.00 --> 201.00] So Quantena has announced an eight stream configuration that could be capable of some absolutely crazy +[201.00 --> 204.00] throughput and could be coming as soon as 2015. +[204.00 --> 205.00] What else we got? +[205.00 --> 210.00] Intel is apparently losing billions on tablets and smartphones. +[210.00 --> 211.00] So that's worrisome. +[211.00 --> 212.00] Yeah. +[212.00 --> 213.00] Or not. +[213.00 --> 214.00] Or. +[214.00 --> 217.00] I'm actually going to play a little bit of Devil's Advocate on that topic later. +[217.00 --> 222.00] And Nvidia has released their most epic lineup of new graphics cards ever. +[222.00 --> 224.00] More on that later on in the show. +[224.00 --> 225.00] They're super performance-y. +[225.00 --> 227.00] Super intro. +[227.00 --> 230.00] They probably have speed holes. +[230.00 --> 232.00] There is no sound in this intro. +[232.00 --> 233.00] None. +[233.00 --> 234.00] I will kill him. +[234.00 --> 235.00] That is two weeks in a row. +[235.00 --> 243.00] I don't know the music, but we'll sing along anyways. +[243.00 --> 245.00] I had to do this last week too. +[245.00 --> 246.00] This is terrible. +[246.00 --> 247.00] Look, Linus Tech Tips. +[247.00 --> 248.00] There's a thing there. +[248.00 --> 249.00] Oh, hey, Squarespace. +[249.00 --> 250.00] There's a thing there too. +[250.00 --> 255.00] So guys, Squarespace is the fast, easy, and convenient, and inexpensive way to set up your +[255.00 --> 256.00] own beautiful website. +[256.00 --> 257.00] More buzzwords. +[257.00 --> 258.00] Oh, and there's more sponsors. +[258.00 --> 259.00] ASUS ROG. +[259.00 --> 265.12] So the G750JZ is actually our presenting sponsor for this week's episode of the WAN show. +[265.20 --> 266.46] It is this notebook right here. +[266.78 --> 273.10] The funny thing to me about this sponsorship is that this isn't really the way I would recommend using this particular notebook. +[273.30 --> 274.78] This isn't really what it's for. +[275.06 --> 278.60] We're going to talk a little bit more about what it's for in the upcoming review. +[279.14 --> 283.14] And also later on when I do my sponsor spot for ASUS here. +[283.22 --> 286.28] Because it's really good at certain stuff. +[286.36 --> 287.82] In fact, I think you were pretty surprised. +[289.00 --> 294.18] We been, I don't know how much, are we talking about the video? +[294.38 --> 295.38] Like what we did in the video? +[295.50 --> 296.30] I don't know. +[296.44 --> 299.32] That's like I almost just said it and then I was like, wait, I don't know. +[299.44 --> 301.88] Why don't we talk about the video later? +[302.26 --> 302.62] Okay. +[303.10 --> 303.42] Okay. +[303.48 --> 304.62] Oh, we have a guest today. +[304.72 --> 306.30] We haven't actually had a guest in a while. +[306.42 --> 310.76] So it'll be Jerry Barnaclesberg will be joining us in a little while here. +[310.92 --> 314.78] We're going to call him on the telephone. +[315.18 --> 317.90] But first, why don't we go through one of our topics here? +[317.90 --> 318.80] Oh my goodness. +[318.90 --> 323.28] I don't have my HDMI. +[323.70 --> 324.80] Look guys, it's a holiday. +[326.36 --> 327.56] I should be off today. +[328.50 --> 328.66] Yeah. +[328.72 --> 329.70] He should be off today. +[329.92 --> 330.24] Yeah. +[330.58 --> 331.58] What we're doing is illegal. +[332.32 --> 332.92] Is it? +[333.26 --> 333.92] I'm not sure. +[334.02 --> 334.76] I'm not paying you. +[335.20 --> 335.88] It's a holiday. +[335.88 --> 338.64] Anyway, we could argue that. +[339.06 --> 344.00] No, I think it's technically slavery, even if it's of your own volition that you're here. +[344.22 --> 344.34] Yeah. +[344.46 --> 344.84] No matter. +[345.34 --> 345.90] In Canada. +[346.04 --> 347.64] I don't know if that's the same everywhere else. +[347.66 --> 352.04] Well, I legitimately told him not to come in today and that it was fine and I would do +[352.04 --> 352.88] the show by myself. +[353.06 --> 354.72] I didn't want to miss two weeks in a row. +[354.72 --> 357.58] And he knows I'm not capable of doing it by myself. +[357.70 --> 362.22] He knows that I would have had to have Johnifer here. +[362.42 --> 362.86] Johnifer? +[362.98 --> 363.32] Join me. +[363.42 --> 364.12] I can never remember. +[364.12 --> 366.44] I was going to say, does his name change every time? +[366.60 --> 369.54] Well, I can never remember what I call him. +[369.78 --> 371.62] We could just call him Slenderman if you want. +[372.02 --> 372.78] That's, yeah. +[373.06 --> 374.24] He honestly looks like Slenderman. +[374.50 --> 374.70] Okay. +[374.80 --> 375.64] So, Johnifer here. +[376.92 --> 379.72] I think Luke figured that Johnifer was... +[379.72 --> 380.52] He's got my shirt on. +[380.62 --> 381.84] I can't even get it off. +[381.84 --> 384.00] He's gunning for your shirt and your job. +[384.62 --> 388.58] I tried for a little while and was like, I'm either going to break him or I'm going +[388.58 --> 389.42] to leave the shirt on. +[389.56 --> 393.30] And if Luke didn't join me on the show, I was going to have to have a co-host. +[393.46 --> 398.90] So, that was going to be pretty uncomfortable for Mr. Soon-to-be-unemployed over there. +[399.22 --> 400.60] So, there you go, right? +[402.54 --> 405.10] Have I even managed to introduce our topics for today? +[405.30 --> 406.20] You did some of them. +[406.54 --> 407.38] Did I do some of them? +[407.50 --> 407.74] Yep. +[408.10 --> 409.04] Oh, fantastic. +[409.22 --> 409.90] You started to. +[409.90 --> 410.76] Did I start to? +[410.76 --> 411.30] Oh, no. +[411.38 --> 412.02] I did the whole thing. +[412.08 --> 413.26] I even did the intro already. +[413.88 --> 414.76] I know we did the intro already. +[414.78 --> 414.94] Yeah. +[414.96 --> 416.10] I just didn't know if you did all. +[416.38 --> 417.84] I didn't know if you actually did four topics. +[418.08 --> 422.86] The best part is that you did different topics than I announced in the YouTube announcement. +[423.14 --> 424.16] Well, I didn't know what they were. +[424.40 --> 425.08] Oh, is it up? +[425.50 --> 426.70] We should see if it's up. +[427.10 --> 427.42] Public. +[427.78 --> 428.68] So, it should be up. +[428.74 --> 429.58] In theory, it's up. +[429.74 --> 430.46] But who knows? +[431.32 --> 432.22] Yeah, it's up. +[432.28 --> 432.66] All right. +[432.68 --> 432.94] Cool. +[433.02 --> 434.68] And there's like 2,000 people watching. +[434.84 --> 436.92] Thank you guys for tuning in on Good Friday. +[437.08 --> 437.56] Hi, everyone. +[438.16 --> 439.36] Did you just say bye, everyone? +[439.36 --> 440.08] I said hi, everyone. +[440.08 --> 440.60] Hi, everyone. +[440.74 --> 441.18] That's good. +[441.46 --> 442.44] You know what's funny? +[442.80 --> 448.56] We are both wearing, other than Linus Tech Tips shirts, the most appropriate possible shirts +[448.56 --> 448.86] today. +[448.98 --> 449.18] Yeah. +[449.18 --> 453.20] Because we're streaming on Twitch, and our sponsor for today's show is Squarespace. +[453.76 --> 455.92] You know why I'm actually wearing this shirt? +[456.30 --> 457.36] And it's a really good thing. +[457.44 --> 458.38] It's comfy, isn't it? +[458.42 --> 459.70] Because people think that... +[459.70 --> 460.60] More on that. +[460.64 --> 461.22] More on that in a moment. +[461.22 --> 465.68] People think that I plan out my sponsor segments really well. +[465.74 --> 465.88] No. +[465.88 --> 467.12] That I'm some kind of a professional. +[468.18 --> 468.58] But... +[468.58 --> 470.28] Well, you're technically a professional. +[470.50 --> 474.02] Today could have just as easily been a Dollar Shave Club integration. +[474.50 --> 476.06] And I didn't shave. +[476.70 --> 477.28] Neither did I. +[477.28 --> 480.72] But today happened to be a Squarespace integration. +[481.16 --> 484.24] And I happened to wear this for pajamas last night. +[484.64 --> 486.60] And I haven't actually changed it. +[486.60 --> 486.92] Yeah. +[486.92 --> 491.24] So yes, I'm wearing... +[491.24 --> 491.84] Holidays! +[493.22 --> 495.08] I'm wearing it because it's comfortable. +[495.90 --> 498.42] And I'm still wearing it. +[498.42 --> 498.98] Oh man. +[498.98 --> 502.28] Because it's still comfortable and doesn't quite smell bad enough yet. +[502.56 --> 502.94] Nice. +[503.66 --> 503.96] Nice. +[504.08 --> 505.74] That's always a good benefit. +[505.96 --> 508.40] That is what it is all about, my friend. +[508.66 --> 511.80] I'm trying to get the Twitch chat so I can see them. +[511.80 --> 515.20] But then it was like, I'm not going to load anything because you don't have Flash Player +[515.20 --> 515.60] installed. +[515.60 --> 517.56] And I'm like, you can technically still load the chat. +[517.70 --> 518.44] And it didn't. +[518.74 --> 519.78] So that sucked. +[520.34 --> 523.50] Max keyframe interval is currently at four seconds. +[523.64 --> 525.80] Please set it to two seconds. +[526.86 --> 527.72] Thank you. +[528.16 --> 529.80] Maybe we should do an actual topic. +[529.92 --> 531.76] Let's do one topic and then let's bring on Jerry. +[532.14 --> 532.32] All right. +[532.34 --> 536.22] So this was originally posted on the forum by TopWarGamer. +[536.32 --> 538.78] I'm going to go ahead and hope that my screen sharing is working here. +[540.32 --> 540.76] Oh. +[541.78 --> 542.18] Okay. +[542.22 --> 544.82] I have something playing in the background here. +[544.90 --> 545.16] I have no... +[545.16 --> 545.50] Oh. +[545.62 --> 545.76] Oh. +[545.76 --> 547.38] It's a Twitch chat. +[547.38 --> 547.40] Oh no. +[548.26 --> 548.56] Yeah. +[548.68 --> 549.08] There we go. +[549.32 --> 549.50] Oh. +[549.76 --> 551.96] Turn off the Twitch stream because you're on my phone. +[552.12 --> 552.68] I paused it. +[552.98 --> 553.30] Did you? +[553.50 --> 554.30] I just wanted this. +[554.36 --> 554.64] All right. +[554.82 --> 555.32] Good enough. +[555.56 --> 555.82] Okay. +[556.14 --> 557.44] Because I was worried about the phone. +[557.56 --> 558.52] I will settle for that. +[559.06 --> 559.30] Okay. +[559.38 --> 560.54] So posted by TopWarGamer. +[560.94 --> 561.34] Microsoft. +[561.58 --> 561.68] Wait. +[561.78 --> 561.94] What? +[562.08 --> 562.98] This isn't the right topic. +[562.98 --> 563.32] Is it? +[564.70 --> 564.98] What? +[565.12 --> 565.68] What? +[565.68 --> 565.72] What? +[565.72 --> 565.80] What? +[565.80 --> 565.82] What? +[565.82 --> 565.84] What? +[565.84 --> 565.86] What? +[565.86 --> 565.90] What? +[565.90 --> 566.40] What? +[566.40 --> 567.36] Broken link. +[568.44 --> 568.64] What? +[569.84 --> 570.36] Oh. +[570.50 --> 571.66] Why did it open over there? +[571.90 --> 573.40] You guys can see this, right? +[573.80 --> 575.06] I just opened a new tab. +[575.10 --> 576.54] I opened a new tab in this... +[576.54 --> 577.80] Internet Explorer, man. +[578.08 --> 579.20] Like, what's your problem? +[579.42 --> 579.96] Okay, so watch... +[579.96 --> 580.86] Why are you doing Internet Explorer? +[581.86 --> 582.46] Because... +[582.46 --> 583.52] You have no reason. +[583.70 --> 586.80] I want to give Microsoft a chance to impress me. +[586.98 --> 591.46] They have ads about how Internet Explorer is not that bad anymore. +[592.22 --> 593.64] Is that actually their thing? +[594.02 --> 594.98] It's not that bad? +[595.10 --> 596.76] I think they did something like that. +[596.94 --> 597.26] Like, it's... +[597.26 --> 600.42] Or, like, the campaign was like, it's better than I expected. +[600.68 --> 601.54] Or something like that. +[603.84 --> 604.96] It's so bad. +[605.16 --> 607.08] You know, I found one use for it. +[607.10 --> 607.98] Okay, so hold on, hold on. +[608.02 --> 608.66] Guys, watch this. +[608.72 --> 609.08] Watch this. +[609.08 --> 610.00] I'm going to click this thing. +[611.06 --> 613.10] And it opens up a tab, like, over here. +[613.30 --> 614.24] Not at the end. +[614.30 --> 615.04] Not at the end. +[615.72 --> 617.00] Not right beside what he's doing. +[617.00 --> 617.40] Not beside it. +[617.52 --> 618.36] But, like, here. +[619.50 --> 621.30] Is that because it's categorizing them? +[621.38 --> 621.60] No. +[621.78 --> 622.44] No, no. +[622.44 --> 624.30] Because there's a Linus Tech Tips tab here. +[624.42 --> 624.68] Yeah. +[625.14 --> 625.90] Like, I could... +[625.90 --> 628.46] There is no justifiable reason for it to do that. +[629.58 --> 631.44] Anyway, so Top Wargamer posted it. +[631.46 --> 633.32] The original article is from The Verge. +[633.34 --> 634.84] I'm just going to go ahead and put this back. +[634.94 --> 638.12] And that is that the Heartbleed exploit +[638.12 --> 642.62] has been in use by the NSA for years. +[643.08 --> 643.44] What's that? +[645.08 --> 646.20] Oh, we got... +[646.20 --> 646.54] We got... +[646.54 --> 647.08] We got... +[647.08 --> 647.80] Okay, okay. +[647.90 --> 649.50] I think our guest today, +[649.94 --> 650.36] Barnacles, +[650.62 --> 651.70] is going to have something to say +[651.70 --> 653.58] about how great Internet Explorer is. +[653.98 --> 656.38] He's filling our document with propaganda +[656.38 --> 658.10] about how Internet Explorer is good. +[658.10 --> 658.60] So, anyway. +[659.10 --> 661.12] Bloomberg reports that the Heartbleed bug +[661.12 --> 663.56] has been known and exploited by the NSA +[663.56 --> 665.12] for at least two... +[665.12 --> 665.90] Wait, two weeks. +[668.02 --> 669.36] I think that's a typo. +[669.46 --> 670.62] I thought that was supposed to be two years. +[670.80 --> 671.70] Yeah, I think it was. +[671.72 --> 672.98] I think it was two years. +[673.58 --> 675.06] Let's go ahead and... +[675.06 --> 676.28] Let's go ahead and double check that. +[676.30 --> 677.20] Do you want to go through the rest of the notes? +[677.20 --> 678.54] I could be wrong, but... +[678.54 --> 680.38] Yeah, so according to anonymous sources, +[680.50 --> 681.54] the bug was kept secret +[681.54 --> 683.48] in the interest of national security. +[683.64 --> 684.50] Good job, guys. +[684.56 --> 685.24] We hate you. +[685.74 --> 687.56] The agency was using it +[687.56 --> 689.10] to obtain passwords and other data. +[689.90 --> 691.74] It gave them access to two-thirds +[691.74 --> 692.92] of the web servers +[692.92 --> 694.30] that are out there right now. +[694.70 --> 696.82] The NSA has denied the allegations, +[697.16 --> 697.78] but honestly, +[698.02 --> 699.28] who believes any of the crap +[699.28 --> 700.50] they say lately anyways? +[700.74 --> 702.26] So, who the hell knows? +[702.34 --> 704.22] The White House has also denied the allegations. +[704.54 --> 705.60] Which, good for you. +[705.60 --> 707.72] Also, no one is really listening to you either. +[708.18 --> 709.68] So, yeah. +[710.40 --> 711.32] So, there you go. +[711.80 --> 713.72] And yes, two years, not two weeks. +[713.92 --> 717.02] That was a typo in the old doc there. +[717.30 --> 719.04] All right, so let's bring on Jerry +[719.04 --> 721.24] to go ahead and try to justify +[721.24 --> 723.56] the existence of Internet Explorer to us here. +[723.74 --> 725.28] Have we just done this topic already? +[725.36 --> 726.52] We've just done that topic. +[727.54 --> 729.02] The topic is, +[729.20 --> 729.96] thank you, NSA. +[730.38 --> 732.24] We appreciate your business. +[732.82 --> 734.42] All right, and thank you, Barnacles. +[734.42 --> 736.42] We appreciate your business as well. +[736.50 --> 738.66] Tell us how fantastic Internet Explorer is. +[739.30 --> 741.18] Internet Explorer is pretty fantastic, guys. +[741.58 --> 743.26] That's why I'm using Chrome right now. +[746.26 --> 748.80] Are you wearing a Microsoft shirt by any chance? +[749.22 --> 749.64] What's that? +[749.88 --> 751.92] Are you wearing a Microsoft shirt by any chance? +[752.12 --> 752.84] No, I am not. +[753.00 --> 755.18] No, this has been an epic sponsor combo. +[755.42 --> 756.72] No, I probably have a Microsoft cup +[756.72 --> 757.54] around here somewhere, though. +[757.80 --> 759.54] I got this Twitch shirt +[759.54 --> 761.58] by fanboying out at their booth at PAX Prime. +[761.80 --> 762.94] Like, they didn't even know who I was. +[762.94 --> 764.38] They just gave me a shirt because I took a picture. +[765.00 --> 765.24] Really? +[765.66 --> 765.98] Yeah. +[766.28 --> 766.60] Nice. +[766.72 --> 768.40] I was like, I stream on your thing all the time, +[768.56 --> 769.34] but whatever. +[769.56 --> 771.20] I love your shirt, Barnacles. +[771.80 --> 772.28] Just saying. +[772.30 --> 773.00] Oh, thank you. +[773.14 --> 774.72] Adventure time is awesome. +[775.06 --> 775.78] It's always an adventure. +[776.30 --> 779.08] You know, people say it's a stoner show, +[779.46 --> 780.68] but do you agree with that? +[782.58 --> 782.98] It is. +[782.98 --> 784.02] It absolutely is. +[784.02 --> 784.18] Oh, come on. +[784.18 --> 785.16] Because every time I watch it, +[785.20 --> 787.62] I'm like, I don't understand anything. +[787.74 --> 789.00] Like, at all what's going on. +[789.12 --> 789.82] I'm just like, man, +[789.82 --> 791.34] if I was high, I bet you'd understand it. +[791.58 --> 793.06] We can watch it, not stoned. +[793.42 --> 794.50] But that doesn't mean that +[794.50 --> 796.82] it's not catering to stoned people. +[797.06 --> 798.38] Because I guarantee you +[798.38 --> 798.92] that's an awesome show. +[798.92 --> 799.84] Yeah, you're not understanding +[799.84 --> 801.06] what's going on, though, are you? +[803.38 --> 804.82] Actually, I, I, okay. +[805.04 --> 806.12] Maybe, maybe I'm, +[806.20 --> 807.24] maybe I'm just. +[807.52 --> 809.08] I can generally follow it, to be honest. +[809.12 --> 810.58] Yeah, maybe I'm just an idiot, +[810.68 --> 811.50] but I can mostly follow it. +[811.50 --> 812.68] Maybe it's because we're not stoned. +[812.78 --> 813.46] Maybe, yeah, +[813.58 --> 814.70] maybe that's the problem. +[814.70 --> 818.54] What came first? +[818.66 --> 819.62] I'm not saying anything. +[819.96 --> 820.80] What came first? +[820.88 --> 822.84] The stoners not understanding the show, +[822.94 --> 825.44] or the show becoming incomprehensible to stoners? +[829.04 --> 830.44] It's like, wait a second. +[831.58 --> 832.06] Hold on. +[832.08 --> 833.12] You guys are breaking up a little bit. +[833.32 --> 833.84] Sorry about that. +[833.86 --> 834.54] Let me think about that. +[834.82 --> 836.40] Must be my awesome Al Gore internet. +[837.32 --> 838.38] Yeah, you know how it is. +[839.10 --> 840.36] Our internet is, like, +[840.44 --> 842.24] pretty, pretty fantastic over here, too. +[842.38 --> 843.46] Yeah, we're using a phone. +[843.46 --> 845.96] Yeah, we're using a phone for our laptops. +[846.28 --> 847.14] Hello, internet. +[848.90 --> 850.58] All right, so why don't we get into, +[850.76 --> 852.82] actually, this is going to be a great topic +[852.82 --> 853.86] to talk to you about, +[854.32 --> 855.34] because it's, +[855.38 --> 857.24] it's one of the more cryptic things +[857.24 --> 858.62] that I think I've seen out of Microsoft +[858.62 --> 859.94] in the last little while here. +[860.40 --> 861.76] Is our stream still called +[861.76 --> 863.38] PAX East Sunday Recap? +[864.06 --> 865.12] What the hell? +[865.14 --> 866.02] That's probably why. +[866.30 --> 866.78] Hey, can you, +[866.88 --> 868.26] can you guys call me back really quick? +[868.48 --> 870.10] Something screwed up a Skype really bad. +[870.24 --> 870.86] It's like, I can't, +[870.94 --> 872.10] it just sounds like it's all jumbled. +[873.46 --> 874.02] It's been, +[874.02 --> 874.30] oh, +[874.30 --> 874.88] oh, +[874.88 --> 876.16] that's terrible. +[877.48 --> 877.80] Oh, +[879.60 --> 880.42] all the terrible. +[882.18 --> 882.62] Oh, +[882.70 --> 883.62] I hate this show. +[885.54 --> 887.78] I hate this show. +[888.34 --> 888.56] Wait, +[888.60 --> 889.38] what's going on here? +[890.36 --> 890.94] There we go. +[891.08 --> 891.36] Okay. +[892.02 --> 892.44] Okay. +[892.68 --> 893.14] Uh, +[893.14 --> 893.36] here, +[893.42 --> 894.14] do you want to talk to him? +[894.14 --> 894.78] Okay. +[894.78 --> 895.52] So in the meantime, +[895.52 --> 897.32] I'm going to change our stream name +[897.32 --> 899.16] and then bring up our next topic here. +[900.48 --> 900.84] So, +[900.84 --> 901.42] uh, +[901.42 --> 901.96] what was I, +[902.28 --> 902.80] what was I, +[902.98 --> 903.44] what was I trying? +[903.46 --> 903.60] Oh, +[903.60 --> 903.74] right. +[903.80 --> 904.42] The WAN show. +[904.60 --> 909.80] So Fridays at 1630 Pacific. +[910.48 --> 910.92] Yeah. +[911.48 --> 911.88] Okay. +[911.98 --> 913.22] So let's go ahead and update that. +[913.26 --> 914.62] I swear I did that earlier. +[914.62 --> 919.06] So this is one of the weirder things that we've seen out of Microsoft in the last little while. +[919.18 --> 919.26] Here, +[919.32 --> 919.80] can I just, +[919.90 --> 920.18] uh, +[921.06 --> 921.46] Oh, +[921.54 --> 921.84] hello. +[922.62 --> 922.98] Hello. +[923.30 --> 923.56] Do this. +[923.88 --> 924.18] Hold on. +[924.22 --> 924.42] Let's, +[924.50 --> 925.58] let's bring you back there. +[925.64 --> 926.32] There we go. +[926.32 --> 928.02] So I'm just going to, +[928.08 --> 929.44] I'm going to screen share with myself here. +[929.48 --> 931.16] This was posted on the forum by goodbytes. +[931.52 --> 937.14] Microsoft has revealed a quote unquote hidden feature in the windows 8.1 update one, +[937.32 --> 940.12] which will allow the system to be installed on a system, +[940.24 --> 948.48] which will allow the OS to be installed on a system with a 16 gig SSD and still have free space for your programs reports, +[948.66 --> 950.00] bit tech.net. +[950.24 --> 956.26] So allegedly the way that they're achieving this is by instead of having some parts, +[956.26 --> 959.02] the OS compressed and some uncompressed. +[959.28 --> 960.94] It's an uncompressed and compressed. +[961.04 --> 961.18] Yeah. +[961.18 --> 961.44] Sorry. +[961.50 --> 961.64] Sorry. +[961.68 --> 963.46] Instead of having the whole OS uncompressed, +[963.58 --> 964.84] they're leaving the, +[964.90 --> 967.04] the super critical parts uncompressed. +[967.18 --> 972.96] And then they're actually having a bunch of it still be compressed with a pointer file that shows it where to go. +[973.12 --> 974.34] Now there are some limitations. +[974.34 --> 979.00] So you are not allowed to install it on a spinning drive. +[979.00 --> 979.70] For example, +[979.92 --> 984.00] you must be running a UEFI based PC running in UEFI mode. +[984.62 --> 984.70] Yep. +[985.04 --> 986.02] Let's hold on a second. +[986.02 --> 987.44] Drive only additional. +[987.56 --> 987.70] Oh, +[987.86 --> 989.98] additional drives that are installed can be mechanical. +[989.98 --> 995.32] So it's just the boot drive and it applies to client additions of windows 8.1. +[995.46 --> 1000.86] There are also some backup antivirus and encryption tools that aren't compatible with Wimboot images. +[1001.68 --> 1002.00] Um, +[1002.08 --> 1006.86] they claim that there won't be a performance Delta. +[1009.02 --> 1009.50] Huh? +[1009.60 --> 1010.08] Uh, +[1010.08 --> 1010.70] there's probably, +[1010.78 --> 1012.36] there's probably going to be a little bit of a performance hit. +[1012.36 --> 1013.38] I mean, +[1013.38 --> 1015.04] there'd have to be anytime compressions involved, +[1015.04 --> 1016.08] there's going to be a little bit of a hit, +[1016.12 --> 1017.20] but it'll probably be negligible. +[1018.16 --> 1018.48] Really? +[1018.72 --> 1020.10] So if it's negligible, +[1020.22 --> 1021.80] this is a legitimate question. +[1021.84 --> 1022.78] If it's negligible, +[1022.98 --> 1025.86] why do we bother on compressing anything in the first place? +[1025.86 --> 1030.20] Because sometimes negligible pisses people off, +[1030.20 --> 1033.04] like benchmark junkies and people that are like really into benchmarking, +[1033.08 --> 1033.62] stuff like that. +[1033.70 --> 1033.90] You know, +[1034.42 --> 1034.70] if, +[1034.78 --> 1035.28] if you're, +[1035.42 --> 1037.34] if you want to squeeze every ounce of power out of your computer, +[1037.34 --> 1037.78] you don't want, +[1037.86 --> 1039.66] you don't want anything like bringing it down. +[1039.76 --> 1042.36] That's why people are like so hardcore about overclocking their GPUs and stuff +[1042.36 --> 1042.74] like that. +[1043.28 --> 1043.74] I mean, +[1043.86 --> 1044.66] for the average user. +[1044.74 --> 1044.86] Yeah. +[1044.88 --> 1045.84] I don't see the problem with it. +[1045.86 --> 1047.10] I think everybody should compress it. +[1047.16 --> 1047.82] And to be honest, +[1048.18 --> 1049.64] NTFS has supported that forever. +[1049.74 --> 1052.28] You can actually go into your NTFS volume and enable compression across the +[1052.28 --> 1054.52] whole volume and reclaim a ton of disc space. +[1054.58 --> 1056.62] But how often do you hear of people using that feature? +[1056.70 --> 1057.46] You just really don't. +[1058.80 --> 1062.52] Have you spent any time with that feature to see what kind of a performance +[1062.52 --> 1063.64] impact we're looking at? +[1064.40 --> 1064.72] Uh, +[1064.76 --> 1066.36] on the NTFS compression. +[1066.58 --> 1066.92] Yes. +[1066.92 --> 1068.64] On the wind boot stuff. +[1068.72 --> 1068.88] No, +[1068.92 --> 1069.56] I haven't done any, +[1069.62 --> 1070.46] any testing on it. +[1071.10 --> 1071.44] Okay. +[1071.46 --> 1072.46] So NTFS compression, +[1072.58 --> 1073.68] like what are we dealing with? +[1073.70 --> 1074.14] Because I mean, +[1074.18 --> 1075.70] there's two ways of looking at this. +[1075.70 --> 1078.02] So Sanforce SSDs aside, +[1078.34 --> 1081.10] the ones that are already compressing the data you're writing to them and then +[1081.10 --> 1082.38] uncompressing them on the fly. +[1082.78 --> 1084.96] But if you take a drive that performs really, +[1085.10 --> 1086.70] really well without hardware compression. +[1087.38 --> 1088.28] So something like, +[1088.28 --> 1088.74] um, +[1088.94 --> 1091.96] an Intel seven 30 series or something like an eight 40 pro. +[1092.42 --> 1092.52] Yeah. +[1092.56 --> 1094.98] Could we be looking at a whole new world of performance? +[1094.98 --> 1100.22] If you have the CPU resources such that the compression and uncompression isn't +[1100.22 --> 1104.28] going to slow anything down and you are effectively making better use of the +[1104.28 --> 1105.32] speed of your drive. +[1105.64 --> 1106.08] Oh, +[1106.12 --> 1106.56] absolutely. +[1107.00 --> 1107.40] No, +[1107.44 --> 1107.56] no, +[1107.56 --> 1107.76] you're, +[1107.76 --> 1108.46] you're absolutely right. +[1108.52 --> 1108.70] I mean, +[1108.70 --> 1111.34] if the physical data is compressed and you don't have to move as much +[1111.34 --> 1114.94] physical data between the actual bus from the drive to the CPU, +[1115.06 --> 1115.42] for instance, +[1115.42 --> 1118.72] then the CPU is your limiting factor because it's basically decompressing the data +[1118.72 --> 1118.96] there. +[1118.96 --> 1119.76] And since compression, +[1120.28 --> 1122.68] most of the old legacy compression algorithms are really, +[1122.80 --> 1123.18] really fast. +[1123.18 --> 1123.38] Now, +[1123.38 --> 1125.58] like they used to kill the old CPUs, +[1125.62 --> 1126.72] but like the light compression, +[1126.82 --> 1128.18] the NTFS uses and stuff like that. +[1128.20 --> 1128.38] I'd, +[1128.42 --> 1131.56] I'd be really surprised if you saw a huge IO performance hit. +[1131.68 --> 1134.58] The biggest problem with compression that I see is that depending on the +[1134.58 --> 1135.82] type of data that you're compressing, +[1135.86 --> 1136.84] the performance can vary. +[1137.30 --> 1137.74] So, +[1137.90 --> 1138.28] so, +[1138.40 --> 1138.66] you know, +[1138.66 --> 1138.90] if you, +[1138.90 --> 1139.22] if you're doing, +[1139.30 --> 1141.68] if you're heavily compressing things like text and stuff like that, +[1141.92 --> 1144.42] the decompression and compression algorithm used to compress that +[1144.42 --> 1144.70] data, +[1144.80 --> 1145.30] it can, +[1145.50 --> 1146.44] the performance can change. +[1146.44 --> 1146.70] It's on, +[1146.76 --> 1147.68] it's on a little bit of a curve. +[1147.68 --> 1151.00] So compressing a hundred megabytes of one type of data versus compressing +[1151.00 --> 1153.08] and decompressing a hundred megabytes of a different type of data, +[1153.14 --> 1154.84] depending on the data and how compressible it is, +[1154.90 --> 1156.06] that's going to affect performance. +[1156.06 --> 1158.32] So you don't really get a linear performance. +[1158.32 --> 1159.82] It's more of all over the place. +[1160.08 --> 1162.16] So this ties into what you were talking about, +[1162.16 --> 1165.58] where you referenced that it's only the really important stuff that's +[1165.58 --> 1165.80] compressed. +[1165.90 --> 1166.78] It's the whole thing. +[1166.78 --> 1169.82] It's just windows updates and stuff after that isn't put in the Wimboot +[1169.82 --> 1170.22] section. +[1170.54 --> 1170.70] Right. +[1171.38 --> 1171.66] Right. +[1171.66 --> 1172.54] And even though it's compressed, +[1172.64 --> 1172.80] it's, +[1172.80 --> 1173.02] it's, +[1173.02 --> 1173.38] it's like, +[1173.40 --> 1175.22] it's still all in the Wim file. +[1175.22 --> 1176.12] It's just part, +[1176.28 --> 1177.52] the files partially compressed, +[1177.62 --> 1179.56] which I guess is kind of a new concept because I've never heard of +[1179.56 --> 1181.74] anything else being partially compressed. +[1181.82 --> 1183.56] Usually a file is compressed or it's not right. +[1183.58 --> 1184.68] So it's, +[1184.68 --> 1184.88] it's, +[1184.88 --> 1186.68] it's a little bit weird to see the partial compression, +[1186.68 --> 1190.12] but the idea of being able to reclaim so much of that space on a +[1190.12 --> 1191.54] device where it comes at a premium, +[1191.54 --> 1191.88] you know, +[1191.88 --> 1192.28] where you have, +[1192.34 --> 1192.50] you know, +[1192.50 --> 1194.32] solid state media on a tablet or a phone. +[1194.34 --> 1194.52] I mean, +[1194.52 --> 1195.28] that's a big deal. +[1195.60 --> 1195.96] Right. +[1196.84 --> 1197.40] But then, +[1197.50 --> 1198.02] I mean, +[1198.36 --> 1199.34] okay. +[1199.34 --> 1200.34] So something like a tablet, +[1200.34 --> 1201.34] then I wonder how, +[1201.34 --> 1205.04] I wonder how much you're going to give up in terms of processing, +[1205.04 --> 1206.30] in terms of, +[1206.30 --> 1209.86] in terms of processing resources to battery then. +[1210.10 --> 1210.60] So if you're, +[1210.68 --> 1212.12] that was very poorly phrased, +[1212.16 --> 1212.90] but the point is, +[1213.02 --> 1213.84] if you are, +[1214.04 --> 1215.62] if you're using your CPU more, +[1215.62 --> 1217.32] as opposed to your storage more, +[1217.82 --> 1218.06] right. +[1218.08 --> 1220.76] Are you going to be giving up some battery life anytime you're doing +[1220.76 --> 1221.94] something IO intensive then? +[1222.64 --> 1223.22] You know, +[1223.28 --> 1223.38] that, +[1223.48 --> 1226.22] that's an interesting question because you're actually saving some battery +[1226.22 --> 1229.20] life by not having to access the media is frequently. +[1229.20 --> 1231.32] And you're kind of trading it off for the CPU. +[1231.34 --> 1232.36] But that, +[1232.36 --> 1232.96] yeah, +[1233.04 --> 1233.74] CPU generally, +[1234.00 --> 1236.64] I think you would take a little bit of a battery hit on it, +[1236.66 --> 1237.32] but it also depends. +[1237.40 --> 1238.74] There's other factors in there like caching, +[1238.88 --> 1239.04] right? +[1239.34 --> 1241.46] I'm sure that if they're using compression on those files, +[1241.54 --> 1243.94] they're also aggressively caching things in and out of memory. +[1244.16 --> 1246.50] And if they're doing aggressive caching and things like that, +[1246.56 --> 1248.26] especially on system level files, +[1248.34 --> 1249.72] they're not going to be loading them very often. +[1249.78 --> 1250.64] They're going to be loading them once, +[1250.74 --> 1251.22] caching them, +[1251.44 --> 1252.32] and then pulling from memory. +[1252.32 --> 1255.00] So the decompression is going to be happening every single time you access +[1255.00 --> 1255.94] every one of these files. +[1256.06 --> 1260.02] I'm sure they're being very smart about which files need to be loaded once +[1260.02 --> 1263.04] it access thousands of times versus files that do literally have to be +[1263.04 --> 1265.90] loaded each and every time due to their dynamic nature or something like +[1265.90 --> 1266.16] that. +[1266.68 --> 1266.80] Right. +[1267.50 --> 1268.10] But yeah, +[1268.12 --> 1269.04] as far as battery life, +[1269.14 --> 1269.28] I, +[1269.86 --> 1270.04] again, +[1270.10 --> 1272.84] I'm going to say probably going to be negligible because compression +[1272.84 --> 1274.50] algorithms aren't going to be that severe. +[1274.74 --> 1274.96] They're not, +[1275.04 --> 1277.62] it's not going to be super high compression and it's not going to be high +[1277.62 --> 1278.72] compression and encryption, +[1278.72 --> 1281.12] which usually that's the encryption side of compression that really, +[1281.26 --> 1281.82] really kills it. +[1282.12 --> 1285.00] So I don't think you're really going to see a huge impact, +[1285.12 --> 1286.26] but as far as no impact, +[1286.36 --> 1286.54] no, +[1286.64 --> 1287.14] as anytime, +[1287.28 --> 1288.18] anytime you're doing compression, +[1288.24 --> 1290.60] you're going to have some kind of an impact on the CPUs performance. +[1291.00 --> 1293.70] The partial compression thing is weird throughout reading the entire +[1293.70 --> 1294.02] article. +[1294.12 --> 1295.74] I didn't actually see anything about that. +[1295.84 --> 1298.60] I just saw that there was the recovery partition that stays compressed and +[1298.60 --> 1301.72] then all updates and future stuff after that goes in the completely +[1301.72 --> 1303.02] uncompressed windows partition. +[1303.46 --> 1304.00] So that's, +[1304.10 --> 1305.12] I'm going to have to read more about that. +[1305.18 --> 1305.64] That's interesting. +[1306.22 --> 1306.58] Yeah, +[1306.64 --> 1306.76] no, +[1306.84 --> 1307.72] I liked it. +[1307.72 --> 1310.30] And I liked the idea of how they're masking it at the file system level +[1310.30 --> 1310.50] too. +[1310.60 --> 1310.78] I mean, +[1310.84 --> 1311.04] to the, +[1311.04 --> 1311.56] to the user, +[1311.64 --> 1313.74] the file system is going to look exactly the same. +[1313.98 --> 1314.32] You're not, +[1314.40 --> 1315.50] you're not going to notice any difference. +[1315.58 --> 1318.22] The filter driver will take care of it all magically behind the scenes. +[1319.00 --> 1319.36] Um, +[1319.46 --> 1322.10] but as far as needing to update things into the whim, +[1322.14 --> 1324.62] that's a little bit interesting because of course you're not just reading +[1324.62 --> 1325.76] things out of the whim. +[1325.88 --> 1328.52] I'd imagine the whim needs to be updated at some point also. +[1328.68 --> 1329.04] No, +[1329.16 --> 1331.38] they're saying that I read on the, +[1331.64 --> 1334.94] on Microsoft's actual documentation that updates go into the windows +[1334.94 --> 1335.26] partition, +[1335.36 --> 1335.94] not into whim. +[1335.94 --> 1336.76] Oh, +[1336.82 --> 1337.02] okay. +[1337.02 --> 1337.16] So, +[1337.24 --> 1339.00] so the whim stays the base image no matter what. +[1339.00 --> 1341.66] That's why I'm saying I didn't read anything about partial compression +[1341.66 --> 1343.08] because they have the compressed, +[1343.22 --> 1344.76] what used to be recovery, +[1344.76 --> 1345.68] uh, +[1345.68 --> 1346.00] image, +[1346.06 --> 1347.20] which is now your whim image. +[1347.28 --> 1348.72] And then that never changes. +[1348.72 --> 1351.94] And any updates or service packs or whatever the heck you get after that, +[1352.22 --> 1355.52] go in your windows partition uncompressed and the whim partition never +[1355.52 --> 1355.88] changes, +[1355.94 --> 1356.48] never gets touched. +[1356.52 --> 1358.38] So you can still use it as recovery later on down the line. +[1358.46 --> 1358.60] No, +[1358.62 --> 1359.00] that makes, +[1359.06 --> 1360.52] that makes a hell of a lot of sense actually, +[1360.52 --> 1363.56] because that also prevents you from ever causing any fragmentation on the file. +[1363.56 --> 1367.00] So they can literally optimize how those files are laid out in that whim to make +[1367.00 --> 1368.80] them as quickly as accessible as possible. +[1368.90 --> 1369.78] So kind of awesome. +[1369.78 --> 1370.38] And like, +[1370.38 --> 1373.44] if you're trying to do it on like an enterprise level or whatever, +[1373.80 --> 1375.94] you can inject things into it on your own. +[1375.94 --> 1379.34] So you can inject updates and stuff into whim before you deploy it. +[1379.72 --> 1379.88] Yeah. +[1379.88 --> 1381.10] But once it's deployed, +[1381.28 --> 1385.84] all updates and everything from that point onward will then go into your uncompressed +[1385.84 --> 1386.52] windows partition. +[1387.16 --> 1387.34] No, +[1387.38 --> 1387.76] that's actually, +[1387.84 --> 1388.46] that's really cool. +[1388.54 --> 1391.96] I'm sure this is also going to have like a high impact on VM deployments and stuff +[1391.96 --> 1392.52] like that. +[1392.94 --> 1393.06] I, +[1393.14 --> 1396.62] I like the idea of just having a whim and just basically just deploying the whim as +[1396.62 --> 1398.32] a VM and not having to deal with all the, +[1398.44 --> 1398.66] you know, +[1398.70 --> 1398.88] all, +[1398.96 --> 1400.48] all of the create creating partitions, +[1400.60 --> 1401.98] decompressing the whim onto the drive, +[1402.04 --> 1402.48] all that stuff. +[1402.54 --> 1403.34] You don't have to do any of it. +[1403.38 --> 1404.64] It's your install times or nothing. +[1405.14 --> 1405.52] Exactly. +[1405.68 --> 1405.84] Right, +[1405.92 --> 1409.04] right now it doesn't work for enterprise applications or VM. +[1409.32 --> 1410.32] It's just kind of consumer level. +[1410.32 --> 1411.18] 8.1 client only. +[1411.42 --> 1411.62] Yeah. +[1411.72 --> 1411.86] Yeah. +[1411.92 --> 1412.30] But it'll, +[1412.36 --> 1412.52] it'll, +[1412.64 --> 1413.50] this is the beginning, +[1413.60 --> 1413.78] right? +[1413.88 --> 1414.06] So. +[1414.20 --> 1414.34] Yeah, +[1414.34 --> 1414.98] it always is, +[1415.02 --> 1415.16] right? +[1415.18 --> 1415.36] I mean, +[1415.36 --> 1415.62] it'll, +[1415.62 --> 1416.28] it'll happen. +[1416.38 --> 1416.66] It makes, +[1416.74 --> 1417.40] it makes sense. +[1417.56 --> 1418.14] It fits the bill. +[1418.94 --> 1422.62] It almost feels like this is actually made like four VMs. +[1423.92 --> 1424.28] Yeah. +[1424.36 --> 1424.56] It's, +[1424.56 --> 1424.80] it's, +[1424.86 --> 1425.12] I mean, +[1425.12 --> 1426.20] it's really cool. +[1426.94 --> 1427.14] The, +[1427.14 --> 1427.42] the, +[1427.42 --> 1430.18] the coolest thing about it isn't necessarily that they're just holding everything in the +[1430.18 --> 1430.32] whim, +[1430.34 --> 1433.88] but I just like the idea that the filter driver is taking all of the guesswork out of it. +[1433.88 --> 1434.64] So the average user, +[1434.70 --> 1435.68] they're not going to know what's going on. +[1435.72 --> 1437.28] They just reclaimed a whole bunch of space. +[1437.76 --> 1438.04] Right. +[1438.16 --> 1439.22] And I think honestly, +[1439.26 --> 1440.26] that's the most important thing, +[1440.30 --> 1441.50] especially when you're dealing with the client side, +[1441.54 --> 1442.30] with the enterprise side, +[1442.34 --> 1442.80] not so much, +[1442.80 --> 1445.24] but when you're dealing with the client side and people that are buying tablets, +[1445.24 --> 1446.22] they just want their space. +[1446.22 --> 1446.40] They, +[1446.70 --> 1446.80] you know, +[1446.82 --> 1449.46] even if they can reclaim four gigabytes to put another movie on it, +[1449.46 --> 1449.60] I mean, +[1449.60 --> 1452.30] that might be the difference between not buying and buying that device. +[1452.30 --> 1452.88] So I, +[1452.88 --> 1453.88] I think that's really cool. +[1454.36 --> 1454.94] I mean, +[1454.94 --> 1455.34] I gotta, +[1455.58 --> 1456.26] I can't help, +[1456.30 --> 1459.90] but feel a little bit like this is something Microsoft shouldn't have even really had to do. +[1459.90 --> 1460.48] I mean, +[1460.48 --> 1467.44] you look at how much smartphone capacity has evolved in the last four years. +[1467.56 --> 1468.00] I mean, +[1468.00 --> 1469.36] when the iPhone four came out, +[1469.44 --> 1472.72] it was available in 1632 and 64 gig capacities. +[1473.22 --> 1473.48] Yes. +[1474.30 --> 1475.20] But what's, +[1475.20 --> 1476.54] what's the five S available in? +[1478.90 --> 1480.54] I think they have 128 gig, +[1480.62 --> 1480.92] don't they? +[1481.18 --> 1482.74] They may have a 128 gig, +[1482.84 --> 1484.08] but really, +[1484.08 --> 1487.98] you're going to try and convince me that flash densities haven't at least more than doubled. +[1487.98 --> 1489.96] And with the way that pricing is structured, +[1489.96 --> 1494.28] it's really not that much cheaper and they make you pay an awful lot more for a little bit more storage. +[1494.34 --> 1499.90] And I think that's why a lot of people end up with 16 gig smartphones or 16 gig tablets still, +[1500.02 --> 1501.60] when really do they have to? +[1502.00 --> 1505.20] Is it really that much of the bill of materials or could you just, +[1505.58 --> 1505.70] or, +[1505.76 --> 1506.00] or, +[1506.06 --> 1506.20] I mean, +[1506.22 --> 1509.64] looking at what's happened to SSDs over the last four years in terms of pricing, +[1509.98 --> 1514.06] couldn't you just be delivering us 64 gigs minimum as a smartphone? +[1514.08 --> 1516.04] Capacity with capacities up to, +[1516.10 --> 1516.22] you know, +[1516.24 --> 1517.64] 128 or even 256. +[1518.92 --> 1519.24] No, +[1519.36 --> 1520.50] I agree that space, +[1520.54 --> 1521.78] space is getting cheaper. +[1521.94 --> 1522.04] It's, +[1522.04 --> 1522.92] it's absolutely getting cheaper. +[1523.02 --> 1523.58] It's getting smaller. +[1523.70 --> 1524.40] It's getting faster. +[1524.60 --> 1525.92] So does reclaiming, +[1525.98 --> 1526.18] you know, +[1526.20 --> 1528.76] a couple of gigabytes really make a difference in the grand scheme of things? +[1529.08 --> 1529.32] Not, +[1529.40 --> 1530.62] not at the higher end of the spectrum, +[1530.62 --> 1531.54] not if you're talking like, +[1531.58 --> 1531.70] you know, +[1531.74 --> 1532.10] 64, +[1532.24 --> 1532.68] 128, +[1532.82 --> 1533.90] 256 gig devices, +[1533.90 --> 1534.68] all the way up to geez, +[1534.72 --> 1536.32] they got like terabyte SSDs now, +[1536.36 --> 1536.50] right? +[1536.50 --> 1537.08] That are affordable. +[1537.96 --> 1538.84] But the thing is, +[1538.84 --> 1540.50] you have to think a little bit more globally too. +[1540.56 --> 1543.32] When you're competing in a market where you want to create mobile devices that are a hundred, +[1543.32 --> 1543.88] $200, +[1544.38 --> 1544.76] you know, +[1544.78 --> 1546.16] and you really want to hit that low, +[1546.30 --> 1547.16] low price point. +[1547.36 --> 1547.60] Yep. +[1547.86 --> 1548.78] Stuff like the Moto G. +[1549.30 --> 1549.66] Exactly. +[1549.82 --> 1551.58] You can buy 16 gigabyte, +[1551.66 --> 1551.88] you know, +[1551.96 --> 1553.20] SSDs for pennies, +[1553.30 --> 1553.60] you know, +[1553.80 --> 1554.34] on the dollar. +[1554.44 --> 1556.46] They're almost irrelevant now because people just don't use them. +[1556.48 --> 1560.22] But if you can put those into devices and drive the price down to a point where, +[1560.30 --> 1560.38] you know, +[1560.38 --> 1563.42] somebody that couldn't otherwise afford a tablet or a mobile device now can, +[1563.50 --> 1564.54] that's their price of entry. +[1564.98 --> 1565.20] I mean, +[1565.20 --> 1565.64] I think, +[1565.64 --> 1566.70] I think that's still a very, +[1566.78 --> 1569.30] very noble thing to go after. +[1569.40 --> 1569.64] But yeah, +[1569.68 --> 1570.24] at the high end, +[1570.28 --> 1570.48] I mean, +[1570.56 --> 1571.02] is this, +[1571.06 --> 1573.56] is this going to be something that we're going to be using if we have like, +[1573.62 --> 1573.76] we know, +[1573.76 --> 1575.54] one terabyte hard drives on our desktop computers? +[1575.64 --> 1575.78] No, +[1575.82 --> 1576.26] not really. +[1576.30 --> 1576.48] I mean, +[1576.48 --> 1576.90] I wouldn't, +[1577.02 --> 1578.50] I wouldn't take the performance hit for it. +[1578.52 --> 1581.54] I would rather pay for it in space just because it's cheaper in this application. +[1581.54 --> 1585.16] But when you're talking a smartphone or a small tablet or something like that, +[1585.32 --> 1585.48] then, +[1585.52 --> 1585.60] yeah, +[1585.60 --> 1587.54] I think it's beneficial in the long run because one thing, +[1587.60 --> 1590.24] you're not going to be using those devices for super high performance applications. +[1590.24 --> 1592.46] So the slight performance hit you take in, +[1592.64 --> 1593.10] you know, +[1593.18 --> 1594.32] in decompressing the data, +[1594.38 --> 1597.38] I don't think it's going to be a really big deal to you because you're going to be using stuff like Office, +[1597.52 --> 1598.10] checking your email, +[1598.24 --> 1599.24] Facebook and watching movies, +[1599.32 --> 1599.82] things like that. +[1599.88 --> 1600.48] You're not going to be like, +[1600.68 --> 1600.88] you know, +[1600.98 --> 1604.12] editing and rendering and doing 3D stuff and, +[1604.22 --> 1604.30] you know, +[1604.34 --> 1605.06] hosting your web, +[1605.22 --> 1605.44] you know, +[1605.44 --> 1606.72] your web server on your tablet. +[1607.04 --> 1607.80] At least I don't, +[1607.90 --> 1608.04] but. +[1609.18 --> 1609.76] So speaking of, +[1609.76 --> 1611.52] speaking of Office, +[1611.52 --> 1614.46] I finally picked up an Office 365 subscription. +[1614.86 --> 1615.02] Oh, +[1615.04 --> 1615.20] awesome. +[1615.34 --> 1615.56] So I'm, +[1615.56 --> 1616.08] I'm, +[1616.08 --> 1616.90] I'm part of, +[1617.00 --> 1617.26] I'm, +[1617.30 --> 1618.74] I'm part of the fold now. +[1618.82 --> 1619.98] I'm just so sick. +[1620.24 --> 1620.88] Of. +[1622.08 --> 1622.60] Everything. +[1623.14 --> 1623.86] Not being, +[1624.06 --> 1626.60] not being like synced and everywhere and all that kind of stuff. +[1626.64 --> 1627.12] And honestly, +[1627.30 --> 1631.54] I got to tell you the setup process for Office 365 is terrible. +[1631.84 --> 1632.48] I mean. +[1632.62 --> 1632.82] Oh, +[1632.84 --> 1633.14] really? +[1633.42 --> 1647.32] That whole ridiculous thing where it's my name at my domain dot on Microsoft.com until I go through my domain registrar to confirm that I own the domain and then I can switch it. +[1647.32 --> 1649.20] And then all of the, +[1649.20 --> 1653.52] like the way that the sort of synced everywhere file thing works, +[1653.52 --> 1657.68] except that sometimes it's my like consumer sky drive. +[1657.68 --> 1660.46] And sometimes it's like my other one. +[1660.46 --> 1661.10] And sometimes it's, +[1661.10 --> 1668.48] and the number of clicks in Office 2013 to save to the local drive is ridiculous. +[1669.36 --> 1670.34] You click save. +[1670.54 --> 1672.84] And instead of just being a local browsing dialogue, +[1673.16 --> 1673.68] it's like, +[1673.84 --> 1674.92] where would you like to save? +[1675.32 --> 1675.50] Blah, +[1675.52 --> 1675.60] blah, +[1675.64 --> 1675.88] blah. +[1676.14 --> 1676.64] Cloud, +[1676.80 --> 1677.22] cloud, +[1677.38 --> 1678.14] some other thing. +[1678.38 --> 1679.50] And then local, +[1679.64 --> 1680.50] local. +[1680.50 --> 1681.42] And then it's like, +[1681.82 --> 1682.52] where local? +[1682.66 --> 1683.78] Here's some recent places. +[1683.98 --> 1684.38] No, +[1685.36 --> 1685.88] just, +[1686.44 --> 1688.44] let me browse the dialogue box. +[1688.44 --> 1688.98] You need to simmer down. +[1688.98 --> 1689.86] You need to simmer down. +[1690.00 --> 1690.36] Yeah. +[1690.62 --> 1691.00] All right. +[1691.24 --> 1691.68] Take it down. +[1691.82 --> 1692.06] Watch. +[1692.56 --> 1695.20] You're actually one of the first people I've heard really complain about it. +[1695.22 --> 1696.62] A lot of people I've heard really love it. +[1696.62 --> 1696.96] And they, +[1697.04 --> 1699.82] they even love like the experience on other platforms like iOS, +[1700.12 --> 1702.74] the Office 365 apps on iOS are like amazing. +[1703.14 --> 1704.86] I haven't tried the iOS one yet, +[1704.98 --> 1705.24] but, +[1705.56 --> 1705.82] but, +[1706.14 --> 1706.50] but, +[1706.50 --> 1709.60] my iPhone, +[1709.84 --> 1713.28] my new iPhone five that I actually see, +[1713.38 --> 1716.54] it's like not even quite fired up yet is in my pocket. +[1716.64 --> 1717.34] I'm going to be doing an, +[1717.38 --> 1718.24] I switched back. +[1718.42 --> 1720.14] I've been on Android for a year, +[1720.28 --> 1725.50] so I'm going to take a crack at it and I'm going to see if Android can, +[1725.58 --> 1727.88] can hold me and see, +[1727.98 --> 1729.16] see what I ended up going back to. +[1729.22 --> 1731.00] So I'm going to try and switch to it for about a month. +[1731.04 --> 1731.48] So we'll, +[1731.58 --> 1731.98] we'll see. +[1732.14 --> 1732.50] We'll see. +[1732.72 --> 1733.08] Well, +[1733.16 --> 1733.58] I've used, +[1733.74 --> 1734.06] I mean, +[1734.10 --> 1734.80] I've used everything. +[1734.90 --> 1735.24] That's one thing. +[1735.28 --> 1736.04] A lot of people are like, +[1736.04 --> 1736.36] Oh yeah, +[1736.42 --> 1737.42] you work for Microsoft. +[1737.54 --> 1738.38] So you're a Microsoft fanboy. +[1738.48 --> 1738.68] It's like, +[1738.70 --> 1738.80] well, +[1738.80 --> 1738.90] no, +[1738.94 --> 1739.58] I have everything. +[1739.58 --> 1739.98] I have, +[1740.04 --> 1740.36] I have, +[1740.42 --> 1740.54] you know, +[1740.56 --> 1742.94] an iPhone five S that I use on a daily basis. +[1743.02 --> 1744.14] I have a Lumia 1520. +[1744.28 --> 1744.96] I've got two, +[1744.96 --> 1745.30] you know, +[1745.36 --> 1746.40] next to seven tablets, +[1746.48 --> 1747.66] the first and the second generation. +[1748.08 --> 1750.12] It's because I like certain things that they all have to offer. +[1750.18 --> 1752.86] But the biggest Achilles heel with Android always with me is, +[1752.96 --> 1755.24] is not all the apps work on all the devices. +[1755.56 --> 1755.88] Right. +[1755.88 --> 1758.06] You get this really weird experience where you go into the marketplace. +[1758.30 --> 1760.50] And it's like the beginning of the description of everything is it's like, +[1760.56 --> 1760.66] Oh, +[1760.72 --> 1762.32] known problems on these 15 devices. +[1762.32 --> 1762.74] And you're like, +[1762.80 --> 1763.58] Oh my God. +[1763.96 --> 1764.42] It's like, +[1766.04 --> 1768.00] pretty much guaranteed to be able to download and use everything. +[1768.12 --> 1768.44] I don't have to go, +[1768.52 --> 1769.04] Oh damn it. +[1769.04 --> 1770.52] I bought that Samsung, +[1770.76 --> 1770.90] you know, +[1770.92 --> 1772.16] whatever the S five or whatever. +[1772.16 --> 1775.02] And now I can't run these five apps because my screen resolution is too high. +[1775.04 --> 1776.18] And the developer didn't fix it. +[1777.12 --> 1780.78] That's the part that annoys me is it's almost like the thing that makes Android really good. +[1780.82 --> 1782.28] Also makes it really bad. +[1782.60 --> 1782.88] Yep. +[1783.30 --> 1783.58] Yep. +[1783.58 --> 1784.00] Like I, +[1784.00 --> 1784.82] I've had so much, +[1784.90 --> 1785.84] I love light flow. +[1785.84 --> 1787.04] I love the idea of it. +[1787.14 --> 1788.50] When I did my Nexus five review, +[1788.72 --> 1789.62] it was amazing. +[1790.16 --> 1790.80] Just like, +[1790.84 --> 1790.96] I, +[1791.06 --> 1793.60] I can't get it working flawlessly on anything else. +[1794.02 --> 1795.12] And it drives me crazy. +[1795.12 --> 1797.66] Cause it's like a really fantastic application. +[1797.92 --> 1798.10] Light flow. +[1798.40 --> 1798.90] Light flow. +[1799.10 --> 1799.28] Yeah. +[1799.78 --> 1799.94] No, +[1799.96 --> 1800.68] there's some really cool. +[1800.74 --> 1802.68] There's some really cool apps on Android that I found, +[1802.72 --> 1803.02] but I just, +[1803.10 --> 1805.38] I remember back and it's gotten a lot better now, +[1805.40 --> 1807.14] but I remember back when I bought a gosh, +[1807.20 --> 1808.72] which was it like Motorola made a, +[1808.82 --> 1810.26] made a little Android tablet. +[1810.56 --> 1811.04] Was it Motorola? +[1811.24 --> 1811.46] God, +[1811.48 --> 1812.06] I can't even remember. +[1812.16 --> 1812.52] It was so long ago. +[1812.52 --> 1813.32] I bought it at Best Buy. +[1813.32 --> 1814.50] It was like brand new tablet, +[1814.80 --> 1815.30] high resolution. +[1815.44 --> 1816.38] I brought it home and seriously, +[1816.48 --> 1817.84] I downloaded like 30 apps. +[1817.92 --> 1818.38] And of the 30, +[1818.48 --> 1819.74] like two of them worked right on it. +[1819.96 --> 1820.14] Yeah. +[1820.32 --> 1821.64] Because all of them were like designed for phones. +[1821.72 --> 1823.34] All of them were designed for different resolutions. +[1823.34 --> 1826.44] Some of them just didn't work well with the new capacitive touch that they +[1826.44 --> 1828.76] were using stuff crashed left and right. +[1828.86 --> 1830.70] And I couldn't triage or debug any of it. +[1830.84 --> 1831.00] I mean, +[1831.08 --> 1831.80] it's better now. +[1832.10 --> 1832.50] Yeah. +[1832.54 --> 1832.84] It's a lot, +[1832.84 --> 1833.66] it's a lot better now. +[1833.76 --> 1834.72] It definitely is a lot better now. +[1835.32 --> 1836.28] Like I use a, +[1836.42 --> 1838.26] my G2 when I did. +[1838.26 --> 1839.10] Um, +[1839.16 --> 1842.80] and I would blindly download applications without checking if it worked or not. +[1843.02 --> 1844.16] Never had a single problem. +[1844.48 --> 1844.92] Um, +[1844.92 --> 1846.44] never had a problem with my Nexus S, +[1846.58 --> 1848.12] never had a problem with my S3. +[1848.40 --> 1851.30] And I'm not having a problem with the Tegra note right now. +[1851.40 --> 1851.72] Luke, +[1851.80 --> 1852.12] never, +[1852.86 --> 1853.30] never, +[1853.30 --> 1853.98] like really, +[1854.36 --> 1854.80] never, +[1854.80 --> 1856.62] never had a problem with application compatibility. +[1857.34 --> 1857.66] Okay. +[1857.86 --> 1858.48] But then he, +[1858.58 --> 1859.10] hold on a second. +[1859.10 --> 1862.86] Cause he came from a Nexus device to an S3. +[1863.04 --> 1864.10] I named my devices. +[1864.22 --> 1864.32] Yeah. +[1864.34 --> 1866.14] I did use fairly mainstream devices. +[1866.22 --> 1866.74] That's very true. +[1867.08 --> 1867.68] So the, +[1867.90 --> 1868.86] I didn't use like the, +[1868.86 --> 1869.40] uh, +[1869.44 --> 1870.98] Motorola tablet or anything like that. +[1871.00 --> 1872.22] I was using a Nexus device. +[1872.26 --> 1873.70] Then I was using a Samsung device. +[1873.70 --> 1875.44] Then I was using a flagship LG device. +[1875.44 --> 1875.78] So it's, +[1875.82 --> 1876.26] it's like, +[1876.54 --> 1877.02] yeah. +[1877.38 --> 1878.68] So you weren't using like the $16, +[1879.00 --> 1879.20] like, +[1879.24 --> 1879.70] what is it like? +[1879.76 --> 1880.92] Neewer? +[1881.20 --> 1881.40] No. +[1882.16 --> 1882.44] Yeah. +[1882.82 --> 1883.14] So, +[1883.34 --> 1883.58] yeah. +[1883.80 --> 1887.62] Cause I've had all kinds of problems with like off-brand Android devices. +[1887.78 --> 1889.04] We're just like nothing works on them. +[1889.10 --> 1889.30] We were, +[1889.30 --> 1890.42] we were just talking about, +[1890.46 --> 1890.70] you know, +[1890.70 --> 1892.62] low end storage on the mobile devices. +[1892.62 --> 1893.84] And it just reminded me that, +[1893.84 --> 1895.02] I've seen some of these, +[1895.02 --> 1895.34] uh, +[1895.34 --> 1898.84] some of these Chinese electronic sites online that are selling Android devices, +[1898.84 --> 1903.08] like actual functioning phones running Android on them for like 25, +[1903.22 --> 1903.52] $30. +[1904.10 --> 1904.36] Yeah. +[1904.42 --> 1905.80] And they've got like eight gigs of store, +[1905.90 --> 1906.04] you know, +[1906.04 --> 1906.54] like four, +[1906.68 --> 1907.76] eight gigs of storage in them. +[1908.34 --> 1909.50] And so it's, +[1909.54 --> 1910.44] it still goes back to, +[1910.48 --> 1911.76] I guess there is a market for that. +[1911.84 --> 1913.10] Obviously somewhere in the world, +[1913.10 --> 1914.46] there's a market for these incredibly, +[1914.62 --> 1915.66] incredibly cheap devices. +[1916.82 --> 1917.22] Yeah. +[1917.22 --> 1917.90] that's actually, +[1917.90 --> 1918.22] uh, +[1918.22 --> 1920.10] it's not on our list of topics for today, +[1920.10 --> 1920.42] but, +[1920.56 --> 1920.94] um, +[1921.28 --> 1921.58] when, +[1921.76 --> 1926.04] when the whole project aura thing was coming around and you know, +[1926.04 --> 1928.52] the enthusiasts were getting really excited about it. +[1928.52 --> 1929.10] And, +[1929.18 --> 1929.78] or I guess what, +[1929.88 --> 1930.02] well, +[1930.02 --> 1931.94] really it was more when it was called phone blocks, +[1931.94 --> 1933.74] when it was still that campaign. +[1934.32 --> 1934.64] Um, +[1934.64 --> 1937.28] one of the conversations that we had on the show was like, +[1937.36 --> 1937.58] look, +[1937.70 --> 1938.34] enthusiasts, +[1938.74 --> 1939.00] calm, +[1939.30 --> 1941.32] calm your boobies because this isn't for you. +[1941.46 --> 1947.54] And now that some pricing rumors are starting to surface and project aura is rumored to be what, +[1947.60 --> 1948.70] like in the 25, +[1948.88 --> 1952.04] $35 range for an entry level device. +[1952.16 --> 1956.54] I think that that's a very good point is that there is definitely a market for this. +[1956.60 --> 1957.42] I thought it was 50 bucks. +[1957.60 --> 1958.16] 50 bucks. +[1958.28 --> 1958.56] Okay. +[1958.82 --> 1959.32] I could be wrong, +[1959.40 --> 1959.74] but it's like, +[1959.78 --> 1961.08] it's still really cheap. +[1961.16 --> 1961.28] Yeah. +[1961.28 --> 1962.30] Like it's going to be a very, +[1962.40 --> 1963.36] very entry level device. +[1963.36 --> 1965.06] And there's definitely still a market for this. +[1965.06 --> 1968.14] And I think that in the next sort of few years, +[1968.14 --> 1974.34] this whole like high end phone thing is going to mostly go away. +[1974.40 --> 1978.72] Just like you can't buy a high end cordless home phone anymore. +[1978.72 --> 1979.04] Like, +[1979.08 --> 1979.74] have you noticed that? +[1980.06 --> 1980.20] Yeah, +[1980.26 --> 1980.40] no, +[1980.46 --> 1980.80] I have, +[1980.86 --> 1981.20] I have, +[1981.26 --> 1982.58] I shop at Costco, +[1982.58 --> 1983.54] like religiously. +[1983.62 --> 1987.68] And for years I'd go to Costco and there'd be at least five or six different really, +[1987.76 --> 1988.26] really high end, +[1988.28 --> 1989.24] like unit in phones. +[1989.24 --> 1989.46] Like, +[1989.48 --> 1989.62] you know, +[1989.62 --> 1990.06] I've got my, +[1990.08 --> 1991.36] my V tech over here, +[1991.40 --> 1991.54] you know, +[1991.54 --> 1993.34] this was considered high end back in the day. +[1993.36 --> 1993.60] Right. +[1993.72 --> 1993.92] Yeah. +[1994.04 --> 1995.24] And so, +[1995.70 --> 1995.98] you know, +[1995.98 --> 1996.86] now I go to Costco, +[1996.86 --> 1997.08] it's like, +[1997.10 --> 2000.32] I can't remember the last time I walked into any Costco and actually seen a home phone +[2000.32 --> 2000.86] for sale. +[2000.86 --> 2002.84] Like they don't even have them anymore. +[2003.12 --> 2003.86] And like for, +[2004.02 --> 2004.88] for a while there, +[2004.88 --> 2008.84] there was a period of like at least a few years where they still had them everywhere. +[2009.04 --> 2013.28] But the way that they were justifying the high price was they're just giving you more +[2013.28 --> 2016.54] and more handsets to the point where you'd have one that would come with, +[2016.68 --> 2016.78] you know, +[2016.84 --> 2018.72] four or five handsets in it. +[2019.18 --> 2019.66] And that was, +[2019.82 --> 2021.98] that was ridiculous features on them too. +[2021.98 --> 2022.26] Like, +[2022.34 --> 2022.70] I mean, +[2022.74 --> 2023.34] features like, +[2023.60 --> 2023.78] well, +[2023.86 --> 2024.64] they sound cool, +[2024.64 --> 2025.96] but they don't really work in practice. +[2025.96 --> 2026.70] Like for instance, +[2027.20 --> 2028.74] I have a feature on my phone over here. +[2028.80 --> 2029.78] And it's one of the reasons why I bought it. +[2029.82 --> 2030.20] And guess what? +[2030.22 --> 2031.20] I never used the feature. +[2031.34 --> 2031.50] Hey, +[2031.54 --> 2032.00] good marketing, +[2032.10 --> 2032.26] huh? +[2032.80 --> 2033.24] It's got, +[2033.36 --> 2036.74] it's got this Bluetooth thing where you can basically hook your Bluetooth, +[2036.92 --> 2037.74] connect your cell phone, +[2037.86 --> 2038.30] any cell phones, +[2038.38 --> 2038.60] Bluetooth, +[2038.70 --> 2040.90] you can connect it to the base station of this. +[2040.90 --> 2042.32] And if your home phone rings, +[2042.64 --> 2048.18] your cell phone like rings and you answer it through the Bluetooth and you can talk on your home phone through your cell phone. +[2048.52 --> 2048.74] Right. +[2048.80 --> 2050.58] So it basically turns your cell phone into a handset. +[2050.88 --> 2054.08] The problem is it only works when you're like 15 feet away from the base station. +[2054.14 --> 2055.00] It cuts out constantly. +[2055.00 --> 2055.48] So it's like, +[2055.68 --> 2056.78] it's like they didn't even test it. +[2056.84 --> 2058.42] It was one of those illusionary benefits where it's like, +[2058.42 --> 2061.02] I bet you some nerd's going to buy this if we put it on the box. +[2061.20 --> 2061.66] And they were right. +[2061.76 --> 2061.98] I did. +[2063.10 --> 2065.00] But the cool thing about Costco is in 20 years, +[2065.00 --> 2066.86] I can take this handset back and be like, +[2066.90 --> 2067.14] yeah, +[2067.24 --> 2067.64] uh, +[2067.90 --> 2068.64] it doesn't work. +[2068.84 --> 2070.28] Give me all my money back. +[2071.20 --> 2072.96] That's Costco for you. +[2073.04 --> 2073.48] Oh my God. +[2073.64 --> 2074.82] Costco's kind of amazing. +[2075.88 --> 2079.28] The stuff I've taken back over periods of time has completely blown my mind. +[2079.62 --> 2079.90] I mean, +[2079.96 --> 2080.32] honestly, +[2080.52 --> 2082.76] my favorite return story at Costco. +[2083.10 --> 2083.34] Uh, +[2083.34 --> 2083.46] well, +[2083.46 --> 2084.34] actually I've got a two. +[2084.54 --> 2087.02] One was my mom returning a toaster oven. +[2087.02 --> 2090.30] That was literally over 10 years old and stopped working. +[2090.58 --> 2093.28] They gave her a brand new top of the line one. +[2093.52 --> 2099.70] And then my personal favorite was one where I actually didn't even walk in with the intention of returning the thing. +[2099.96 --> 2100.66] So I, +[2100.74 --> 2102.36] I walked in with a pressure washer. +[2102.36 --> 2102.68] Okay. +[2102.68 --> 2106.16] And pressure washers are one of those items that people, +[2106.46 --> 2106.84] um, +[2107.28 --> 2110.48] customer service people are real used to people renting, +[2110.82 --> 2111.14] you know? +[2111.22 --> 2111.66] Yes. +[2111.76 --> 2111.92] Yeah. +[2111.92 --> 2114.52] Kind of like snowblowers and air conditioner. +[2114.90 --> 2115.12] Right. +[2115.18 --> 2116.24] You take them out a couple of times a year. +[2116.30 --> 2116.54] Maybe. +[2116.74 --> 2116.90] Yeah. +[2116.90 --> 2117.68] Seasonal items. +[2118.00 --> 2118.98] So I, +[2118.98 --> 2119.16] I, +[2119.30 --> 2119.84] first of all, +[2119.90 --> 2120.22] I figured, +[2120.30 --> 2120.40] okay, +[2120.40 --> 2123.48] this category getting anything done is going to be a problem. +[2123.48 --> 2128.78] So the only reason I went in was because it was some weird brand, +[2128.94 --> 2129.92] Karcher or something. +[2129.92 --> 2131.34] I couldn't even figure out how to pronounce it. +[2131.36 --> 2132.68] It had like an apostrophe in it. +[2132.68 --> 2132.94] And I'm like, +[2133.00 --> 2133.22] okay, +[2133.22 --> 2133.46] whatever. +[2133.46 --> 2134.20] Was this that electric, +[2134.34 --> 2135.66] was this one of those electric ones? +[2135.88 --> 2136.08] No, +[2136.14 --> 2136.90] it was a gas powered one. +[2136.96 --> 2137.04] Oh, +[2137.08 --> 2137.66] it was a gas powered one. +[2137.66 --> 2137.82] Okay. +[2138.02 --> 2138.20] Yeah. +[2138.24 --> 2138.40] Yeah. +[2138.40 --> 2138.54] Yeah. +[2138.54 --> 2139.20] It was a gas powered one. +[2139.26 --> 2142.78] And I'd used it very heavily the previous summer when I was painting houses. +[2142.78 --> 2145.30] And what happened, +[2145.30 --> 2146.98] and it was the most bizarre thing. +[2146.98 --> 2147.66] Like I, +[2147.90 --> 2148.04] I, +[2148.04 --> 2148.10] I, +[2148.10 --> 2149.62] even though it legitimately happened, +[2149.62 --> 2152.06] I figured you walk into any store and tell them this, +[2152.14 --> 2154.26] they're not even going to believe you anyway. +[2154.26 --> 2155.06] So I, +[2155.22 --> 2160.32] all I wanted was I wanted a new wand for it because I was using it. +[2160.84 --> 2163.80] And literally in the middle of using it, +[2164.22 --> 2165.24] it snapped in half. +[2165.76 --> 2166.66] The metal, +[2166.66 --> 2169.66] the metal snapped in half, +[2169.78 --> 2169.88] the, +[2169.88 --> 2170.02] the, +[2170.02 --> 2172.02] the brass fitting, +[2172.60 --> 2175.34] just like the threads snapped right off of it. +[2175.56 --> 2176.44] And it just, +[2176.64 --> 2176.92] you know, +[2176.96 --> 2180.90] obviously what happens with a pressure washer when you don't have a nozzle on it +[2180.90 --> 2182.00] is it just drips, +[2182.08 --> 2182.18] right? +[2182.18 --> 2182.52] Like it, +[2182.56 --> 2183.54] it's just normal, +[2183.70 --> 2184.18] normal water. +[2184.26 --> 2184.34] Now, +[2184.36 --> 2184.76] to be honest, +[2184.82 --> 2184.94] was, +[2184.98 --> 2185.94] was he hitting you with it? +[2186.44 --> 2186.80] Yes. +[2187.78 --> 2188.52] I'm so sorry. +[2188.62 --> 2189.88] I walk in and I'm just like, +[2190.24 --> 2190.52] um, +[2190.54 --> 2192.38] I don't know how to contact this manufacturer. +[2192.66 --> 2194.08] I need a new wand for this thing. +[2194.14 --> 2194.76] Can you help me? +[2195.68 --> 2197.32] And they're like, +[2197.94 --> 2198.40] no, +[2198.82 --> 2201.78] but we'll take that and give you a full credit. +[2203.02 --> 2204.48] And they won't even tell you what, +[2204.52 --> 2206.04] they won't even ask you nine out of 10 times. +[2206.08 --> 2207.40] They don't even ask you what's wrong with it. +[2207.56 --> 2207.84] Nope. +[2208.40 --> 2209.16] It's pretty crazy. +[2209.16 --> 2211.28] Like my two best stories ever was a baby monitor. +[2211.38 --> 2212.20] I took a baby. +[2212.34 --> 2213.70] It legitimately broke the baby monitor. +[2213.70 --> 2214.32] The baby monitor. +[2214.42 --> 2216.68] We had it for about a year and the camera, +[2216.76 --> 2217.58] one of the cameras broke. +[2217.66 --> 2219.86] So we took the whole thing back and they're like, +[2220.32 --> 2221.00] they're like, +[2221.04 --> 2221.20] Oh, +[2221.24 --> 2221.62] do you have the, +[2221.82 --> 2222.80] they asked me for the receipt? +[2222.80 --> 2224.24] Cause they couldn't figure out what to purchase. +[2224.38 --> 2224.94] It wasn't the system. +[2224.94 --> 2226.06] Cause it was really obscure item. +[2226.42 --> 2227.58] And so they opened up the back. +[2227.64 --> 2228.26] They got the serial number. +[2228.32 --> 2228.52] Anyways, +[2228.52 --> 2229.62] they found it in the computer system. +[2229.66 --> 2229.86] They're like, +[2229.92 --> 2230.16] okay, +[2230.16 --> 2230.64] we found it. +[2230.64 --> 2230.92] They're like, +[2231.12 --> 2232.76] would you like cash or store credit? +[2232.78 --> 2234.08] And I'm like cash. +[2234.08 --> 2235.32] And then they look in the bag and they're like, +[2235.38 --> 2235.48] Oh, +[2235.48 --> 2236.94] do you have the power adapter for the other camera? +[2237.00 --> 2237.20] I was like, +[2237.26 --> 2237.64] Oh crap. +[2237.64 --> 2238.80] I left the power adapter at home. +[2238.84 --> 2239.06] I was like, +[2239.10 --> 2239.34] Oh here, +[2239.36 --> 2240.04] I'll run home and get it. +[2240.04 --> 2240.26] They're like, +[2240.30 --> 2240.42] yeah, +[2240.42 --> 2241.14] don't worry about it. +[2242.12 --> 2242.50] And they, +[2242.56 --> 2243.44] so they give me my money back. +[2243.48 --> 2245.60] So I still have the AC adapter for this thing sitting in the house +[2245.60 --> 2245.90] somewhere. +[2245.90 --> 2248.06] And the second one was a friend of mine bought a treadmill, +[2248.24 --> 2249.30] had it for three years. +[2249.30 --> 2249.88] A treadmill, +[2249.88 --> 2251.08] a treadmill, +[2251.22 --> 2252.06] exercise equipment, +[2252.16 --> 2252.30] right? +[2252.30 --> 2253.94] Who the hell returns that successfully? +[2254.54 --> 2255.40] And so the treadmill, +[2255.86 --> 2257.66] it was a started squeaking or something. +[2257.76 --> 2258.44] It wasn't even broken. +[2258.50 --> 2259.46] The belt was just squeaking or something. +[2259.48 --> 2260.86] So he loaded in his truck and took it back there. +[2260.88 --> 2261.24] And sure enough, +[2261.24 --> 2261.52] they just, +[2261.58 --> 2262.32] they just asked him, +[2262.32 --> 2263.08] you know, +[2263.12 --> 2263.70] cash credit. +[2263.70 --> 2264.22] Here you go. +[2264.28 --> 2266.64] And the guy went out in the parking lot and put it on a flatbed and took +[2266.64 --> 2266.94] it inside. +[2267.02 --> 2267.22] And we're like, +[2267.26 --> 2267.38] dude, +[2267.42 --> 2269.54] you just returned a three-year-old used treadmill. +[2270.00 --> 2270.58] And it was like, +[2270.64 --> 2270.86] and he got, +[2270.92 --> 2272.38] and he got like $1,200 back for it. +[2272.40 --> 2272.58] It's like, +[2272.60 --> 2275.20] you bought the treadmill today on Craigslist to be like 50 bucks. +[2275.94 --> 2276.36] It just, +[2276.44 --> 2277.14] it blows my mind. +[2277.14 --> 2279.72] I don't know how that business model works and how they can actually like +[2279.72 --> 2280.34] sustain that, +[2280.40 --> 2280.62] but Hey, +[2280.72 --> 2281.60] I can tell you how it works. +[2281.72 --> 2282.30] If you'd like, +[2282.56 --> 2283.14] please do, +[2283.32 --> 2283.84] please do. +[2283.98 --> 2286.54] And does it involve unicorns and Steve jobs is soul. +[2286.64 --> 2286.88] I just, +[2286.98 --> 2287.54] I need to know. +[2287.54 --> 2293.10] It involves them being obstinate and impossible to deal with on the other +[2293.10 --> 2293.38] side. +[2293.76 --> 2294.00] So, +[2294.18 --> 2295.88] you know how there's always, +[2296.22 --> 2298.16] there's always two sides of anything, +[2298.26 --> 2298.44] right? +[2298.52 --> 2302.48] Like companies will have their customer facing side where they're the +[2302.48 --> 2303.56] nicest folks ever. +[2303.82 --> 2306.54] And then the way that they get away with being, +[2307.14 --> 2311.84] the nicest people ever to customers is by being complete asshats to the +[2311.84 --> 2316.64] other people that they deal with and forcing their customer centric +[2316.64 --> 2318.76] policies on the folks that deal with them. +[2318.84 --> 2322.92] So the way that someone like Costco works is at the end of the year, +[2322.98 --> 2323.10] like, +[2323.16 --> 2323.66] first of all, +[2323.74 --> 2328.94] they're paying for things like net 180 net 365, +[2329.56 --> 2333.96] like not paying for things for six months to a year after the product lands +[2333.96 --> 2334.54] in the warehouse. +[2334.54 --> 2336.88] Then anything that gets returned, +[2337.08 --> 2338.92] there's no negotiation process. +[2339.04 --> 2339.56] And this is all, +[2339.64 --> 2341.82] this is all my understanding from someone telling me this. +[2341.88 --> 2344.36] So I'd be happy for someone to correct me if I'm wrong. +[2344.50 --> 2346.96] But basically what happens is anything that gets returned, +[2347.20 --> 2348.46] they put it on pallets, +[2348.62 --> 2351.66] they pack it up and they say, +[2351.76 --> 2352.68] we're not paying for these ones. +[2353.54 --> 2354.20] Oh my God. +[2354.22 --> 2356.40] So basically what you're saying is when I go to Costco and they're like, +[2356.62 --> 2356.90] sir, +[2356.92 --> 2359.08] would you like cash or credit? +[2359.08 --> 2361.58] What they're really doing on the other end of Samsung is they're like, +[2361.66 --> 2361.74] yeah, +[2361.74 --> 2363.50] you're getting 6,000 TVs back bitches. +[2363.64 --> 2364.04] Yeah. +[2364.20 --> 2364.42] Yes. +[2364.76 --> 2365.18] Pretty much. +[2365.22 --> 2365.36] Oh, +[2365.48 --> 2366.82] that's the most genius model ever. +[2367.14 --> 2367.34] Yep. +[2367.42 --> 2367.62] It's like, +[2367.62 --> 2368.64] it's like inverse Walmart. +[2369.00 --> 2369.92] The thing is, +[2370.02 --> 2372.74] there's no way they're not going to want to sell their stuff to Costco. +[2373.08 --> 2373.26] Yeah. +[2373.26 --> 2377.50] Because Costco moves so much product that even though Samsung's taking that 6,000 +[2377.50 --> 2378.74] TVs back or whatever, +[2379.16 --> 2380.58] they're still making lots of money. +[2380.64 --> 2382.00] So Samsung is just like, +[2382.10 --> 2382.86] okay. +[2383.14 --> 2383.94] And then you get a huge, +[2384.28 --> 2385.68] you have no choice. +[2386.04 --> 2387.68] And the other thing I don't really get with Costco too, +[2387.72 --> 2388.94] is they got the membership deal, +[2389.00 --> 2389.14] right? +[2389.18 --> 2390.94] So they're making some money off that you buy a membership. +[2391.08 --> 2391.28] What is it? +[2391.28 --> 2391.64] Like 30, +[2391.72 --> 2392.66] $40 a year or whatever. +[2392.68 --> 2395.52] But then they have that executive membership that they cram down your +[2395.52 --> 2397.10] throat and they try to get you to get, +[2397.14 --> 2397.62] it's like 20, +[2397.70 --> 2398.08] it's only like, +[2398.16 --> 2398.38] what is it? +[2398.38 --> 2399.30] Like $50 more, +[2399.38 --> 2400.28] like a hundred dollars a year. +[2400.40 --> 2400.82] I think so. +[2400.88 --> 2401.06] Yeah. +[2401.14 --> 2403.38] But then they give you back like 5% of your purchases. +[2403.38 --> 2406.54] So every year I get a check from them for like thousands of dollars. +[2406.62 --> 2406.86] And I'm like, +[2406.90 --> 2408.44] how is this making you guys any money? +[2408.78 --> 2408.90] Well, +[2408.96 --> 2411.26] it's all a volume game with them. +[2411.34 --> 2411.48] I mean, +[2411.56 --> 2411.74] okay, +[2411.80 --> 2413.14] here's something crazy. +[2413.22 --> 2413.86] I don't know if you know this. +[2413.92 --> 2414.82] My wife works at Costco. +[2415.74 --> 2417.32] She's a pharmacy manager there. +[2417.76 --> 2420.00] So basically Costco, +[2420.34 --> 2422.76] aside from all of these sort of the, +[2422.76 --> 2422.96] the, +[2422.96 --> 2424.42] the way that they treat customers, +[2424.58 --> 2426.82] the way they treat employees is really good. +[2426.94 --> 2432.12] And the way that they treat their internal policies is actually really +[2432.12 --> 2433.08] amazing sometimes. +[2433.08 --> 2434.54] So my brother-in-law works there too. +[2434.56 --> 2435.10] And he loves it. +[2435.14 --> 2435.34] He's, +[2435.34 --> 2436.18] he's like a career guy. +[2436.22 --> 2437.20] He's been there for like 10 years. +[2437.30 --> 2437.74] There you go. +[2437.74 --> 2443.84] They actually have a policy that they will not mark something up more than X +[2443.84 --> 2445.66] percent within a given category. +[2445.82 --> 2446.34] Oh, +[2446.40 --> 2446.50] wow. +[2447.14 --> 2449.62] Like the way that it worked when I was in product management, +[2449.62 --> 2453.22] because NCIX is a fairly sensible company, +[2453.22 --> 2455.94] is that if we got a crazy, +[2455.94 --> 2456.44] you know, +[2456.52 --> 2458.40] end run deal on cool it, +[2458.66 --> 2461.04] eco water cooling units or something like that, +[2461.10 --> 2462.14] this was actually my buy. +[2462.14 --> 2465.84] I bought like 5,000 of them or 6,000 of them in one shot. +[2466.52 --> 2471.30] And we got them for like $28 or something insane like that. +[2471.58 --> 2477.58] So Costco would take that deal and they would blitz them at 32 99 because +[2477.58 --> 2478.66] that's their policy. +[2478.82 --> 2480.28] If they get a crazy deal, +[2480.42 --> 2482.10] they can't just milk it. +[2482.76 --> 2483.38] You blitz it, +[2483.60 --> 2485.18] you get rid of it and call it good. +[2485.48 --> 2485.62] Yeah. +[2485.68 --> 2485.88] Okay. +[2486.26 --> 2490.84] Whereas I was able to take that deal and turn it into thousands and +[2490.84 --> 2494.42] thousands and thousands of dollars of profit and then blitz it once in a +[2494.42 --> 2495.58] while and, +[2495.58 --> 2496.26] and kind of, +[2496.26 --> 2497.18] kind of milk it that way. +[2497.22 --> 2499.52] But Costco's policy is that you can't do that. +[2499.58 --> 2504.36] That's why they don't sell Apple because they refuse to adhere to Apple's +[2504.36 --> 2504.76] map. +[2506.36 --> 2506.76] Gotcha. +[2506.86 --> 2507.80] Because if they were selling Apple, +[2507.88 --> 2508.18] it'd be like, +[2508.24 --> 2508.30] here, +[2508.38 --> 2508.80] get an iPhone, +[2508.92 --> 2509.66] 68 bucks. +[2509.94 --> 2510.22] Yeah. +[2511.22 --> 2513.50] And nobody would ever go to the Apple store ever again. +[2513.78 --> 2515.68] And Costco will not sell, +[2515.90 --> 2516.00] well, +[2516.04 --> 2518.74] or they won't buy it for less than what other people are paying because +[2518.74 --> 2519.26] they're Costco. +[2519.26 --> 2523.48] And then they won't sell it for more than their policy dictates that they +[2523.48 --> 2523.92] will sell it. +[2524.28 --> 2524.92] So it's almost, +[2525.02 --> 2525.60] it's almost funny. +[2525.60 --> 2527.82] Cause in a way it's like Costco is kind of a monopoly. +[2528.62 --> 2529.02] I mean, +[2529.02 --> 2529.44] they really are. +[2529.46 --> 2529.92] Cause companies, +[2530.06 --> 2531.62] if a company wants to move volume, +[2531.66 --> 2533.12] they kind of have to deal with them. +[2533.12 --> 2533.98] And if they want to, +[2534.12 --> 2535.10] if they have to deal with them, +[2535.10 --> 2536.48] they have to kind of put up with their crap. +[2537.00 --> 2537.28] Yep. +[2537.36 --> 2537.48] But, +[2537.62 --> 2538.42] but at the end of the day, +[2538.42 --> 2539.06] they're making money. +[2539.30 --> 2540.04] Costco's making money. +[2540.12 --> 2541.16] So I guess everybody's happy, +[2541.24 --> 2542.32] but it's just funny. +[2542.32 --> 2543.00] Cause I see so many, +[2543.04 --> 2543.24] I see, +[2543.30 --> 2545.20] I see the government going after so many companies for, +[2545.26 --> 2545.40] you know, +[2545.40 --> 2547.92] throwing around the whole monopoly world word or anything like that. +[2547.92 --> 2550.26] But it's like, +[2550.26 --> 2550.76] what is Costco competition? +[2551.40 --> 2554.04] Isn't Sam's club like owned by the same parent corporation? +[2554.36 --> 2555.04] I'm not sure. +[2555.12 --> 2556.42] We don't have Sam's club here. +[2556.84 --> 2558.42] So no idea what Sam's club is. +[2558.44 --> 2559.02] I've been there. +[2559.10 --> 2559.96] It's very similar. +[2560.16 --> 2560.60] It is. +[2560.60 --> 2561.54] It's the same damn thing. +[2561.54 --> 2561.96] You're identical. +[2562.14 --> 2562.42] You'd know, +[2562.50 --> 2563.06] you'd never know. +[2563.14 --> 2564.24] You walk into Sam's club. +[2564.30 --> 2565.32] It's like somebody blindfolded. +[2565.34 --> 2565.64] You'd like, +[2565.70 --> 2566.48] you'd look around and be like, +[2566.50 --> 2567.02] I'm in Costco. +[2567.24 --> 2567.58] It's like, +[2567.70 --> 2570.36] I think it's like blue themed instead of red themed. +[2571.16 --> 2571.52] Yeah. +[2571.52 --> 2571.92] It's like, +[2571.96 --> 2572.56] that's pretty much it. +[2572.56 --> 2575.66] And I think about the only real difference is I think Sam's club sells some +[2575.66 --> 2577.14] things in small quantities, +[2577.28 --> 2577.84] like not a lot, +[2577.90 --> 2578.60] but some things. +[2578.78 --> 2579.50] Whereas Costco, +[2579.64 --> 2580.98] everything's like super mega bulk. +[2581.34 --> 2582.46] That's why I like to shop at Costco. +[2582.46 --> 2582.90] Cause you know, +[2582.92 --> 2584.22] they sell cereal by the gallon. +[2584.38 --> 2584.64] It's nice. +[2584.76 --> 2584.92] Ah, +[2584.98 --> 2586.96] Sam's club is actually a division of Walmart. +[2587.74 --> 2587.92] Oh, +[2587.94 --> 2588.54] is it really? +[2588.80 --> 2589.04] Oh, +[2589.08 --> 2589.34] okay. +[2589.44 --> 2589.64] So, +[2589.64 --> 2590.96] so Wally world's trying to get their, +[2591.04 --> 2591.98] their piece of the pie. +[2592.16 --> 2592.40] I see. +[2592.48 --> 2592.90] There you go. +[2593.80 --> 2593.96] Well, +[2594.00 --> 2594.26] all right. +[2594.26 --> 2596.42] We should probably do an actual tech topic. +[2596.56 --> 2597.14] Oh yeah. +[2597.24 --> 2597.50] Yeah. +[2597.50 --> 2597.92] Sorry guys. +[2597.96 --> 2598.60] I'm a little random. +[2598.72 --> 2600.86] That ADHD tends to kick in every once in a while. +[2601.36 --> 2601.90] All right. +[2601.90 --> 2602.64] Here we go. +[2602.74 --> 2603.60] So Sony, +[2604.28 --> 2604.74] sorry. +[2605.04 --> 2605.52] You're, +[2605.62 --> 2605.82] you're, +[2605.92 --> 2606.16] you're, +[2606.16 --> 2606.54] you're, +[2606.54 --> 2607.22] you're gone. +[2607.44 --> 2607.82] Hold on. +[2607.96 --> 2608.24] I'll, +[2608.34 --> 2609.16] I can bring you back. +[2609.28 --> 2610.12] Oh no. +[2610.74 --> 2614.94] Sony isn't totally bleeding for money. +[2615.70 --> 2616.02] What? +[2616.30 --> 2617.20] They're totally not. +[2617.48 --> 2618.38] What are you talking about? +[2619.20 --> 2619.48] What? +[2620.82 --> 2621.78] I'm trolling you. +[2621.86 --> 2622.22] Oh, +[2622.44 --> 2623.88] you're confusing me. +[2624.18 --> 2624.46] Okay. +[2624.58 --> 2624.94] So, +[2625.20 --> 2627.10] this was posted on the forum by good bites. +[2627.36 --> 2628.56] As we know, +[2628.70 --> 2630.46] Sony has been doing some massive, +[2630.86 --> 2631.22] you know, +[2631.22 --> 2632.48] slashing and burning, +[2632.48 --> 2635.78] selling everything that they can to stay afloat. +[2635.96 --> 2640.24] I think we're not that far away from them selling like office furniture at this point. +[2640.34 --> 2640.46] Well, +[2640.50 --> 2641.16] cause the, +[2641.16 --> 2641.26] the, +[2641.26 --> 2641.46] the, +[2641.46 --> 2644.86] the reason why I was just trolling you that way was their claim is it's, +[2644.92 --> 2648.72] it's their ongoing effort to streamline their portfolio and operations. +[2649.02 --> 2649.34] Okay. +[2649.34 --> 2649.70] So they, +[2649.70 --> 2650.44] it was messy. +[2650.44 --> 2654.32] They are selling their entire stake in square Enix. +[2654.32 --> 2658.30] The studio behind the final fantasy series reports the verge. +[2658.30 --> 2662.08] So Sony has 8.2% share in the company, +[2662.18 --> 2663.92] making it the largest shareholder. +[2663.92 --> 2668.66] And they are expected to make about 4.8 billion yen from the transaction. +[2669.66 --> 2669.74] Um, +[2670.18 --> 2671.42] which is like a box us, +[2671.64 --> 2671.88] right? +[2672.16 --> 2672.52] Yeah. +[2672.60 --> 2674.90] So between them having, +[2675.08 --> 2676.44] that's rude. +[2676.44 --> 2681.30] So between them having, +[2681.56 --> 2682.04] um, +[2682.36 --> 2682.62] you know, +[2682.68 --> 2687.80] between them selling off buildings to keep things going and between them, +[2687.90 --> 2688.16] you know, +[2688.32 --> 2688.60] I mean, +[2688.60 --> 2688.72] no, +[2688.78 --> 2688.92] no, +[2688.92 --> 2689.06] no, +[2689.06 --> 2689.12] no, +[2689.12 --> 2689.30] no. +[2689.34 --> 2691.40] This is just to streamline their operations. +[2691.86 --> 2693.48] You have no idea what you're talking about. +[2693.48 --> 2693.62] Okay. +[2693.68 --> 2694.76] Getting rid of the buildings. +[2694.76 --> 2695.96] I'll kind of, +[2696.22 --> 2700.02] I'll say no BS getting rid of the, +[2700.06 --> 2702.52] the boat anchor that is square Enix at this point. +[2702.78 --> 2703.10] I, +[2703.36 --> 2706.94] I don't understand who would even buy 8.2% of, +[2707.06 --> 2707.90] I don't think, +[2708.02 --> 2710.14] I don't think if you offered it to me for like, +[2710.38 --> 2710.84] if you're like, +[2710.88 --> 2711.04] okay, +[2711.04 --> 2711.30] look, +[2711.38 --> 2711.74] Linus, +[2712.14 --> 2712.50] you know, +[2712.50 --> 2712.70] like, +[2712.76 --> 2715.02] let's say your entire like net worth. +[2715.02 --> 2715.46] So like, +[2715.50 --> 2715.68] you know, +[2715.68 --> 2717.12] a couple hundred thousand dollars, +[2717.12 --> 2717.42] right? +[2717.90 --> 2720.84] You can buy 8.2% of square Enix. +[2722.72 --> 2723.52] I'd be like, +[2723.80 --> 2724.74] I don't know. +[2724.76 --> 2727.36] Let me look into this first. +[2727.78 --> 2729.48] I'd probably do it in the cellet immediately. +[2730.06 --> 2730.56] Yeah, +[2730.62 --> 2731.14] but to who? +[2731.38 --> 2732.26] Hopefully someone. +[2732.40 --> 2732.92] Not to me. +[2733.08 --> 2733.36] Nope. +[2734.86 --> 2735.38] Hopefully, +[2735.74 --> 2736.22] um, +[2736.58 --> 2738.62] SMBC Nico Securities. +[2739.20 --> 2740.08] I don't get how, +[2740.18 --> 2743.96] how Sony hurting for money to make such quality products that almost never catch fire. +[2745.50 --> 2746.26] You know, +[2746.44 --> 2754.06] the thing that frustrates me about Sony is it's like so many things where it's their own hubris that ultimately, +[2754.06 --> 2759.18] just makes them impossible to want to deal with as a customer. +[2759.18 --> 2762.74] The only Sony thing that I've bought in the last, +[2762.84 --> 2763.20] since I, +[2763.34 --> 2765.30] since my Discman from high school, +[2765.86 --> 2766.80] since then, +[2767.14 --> 2769.28] is a professional grade camera. +[2769.58 --> 2771.38] So my Sony FS700 camera, +[2771.58 --> 2773.92] I bought because it was actually innovative, +[2774.28 --> 2775.98] it was a compelling value, +[2775.98 --> 2780.14] and the features and quality of it were difficult to touch at the time. +[2780.14 --> 2780.74] Yeah. +[2780.74 --> 2781.20] But I mean, +[2781.28 --> 2781.70] again, +[2781.70 --> 2784.24] the problem here is that in that particular category, +[2784.66 --> 2787.30] Sony is going up against the kings of hubris, +[2787.66 --> 2788.70] companies like Canon. +[2789.58 --> 2789.82] Yeah. +[2789.82 --> 2790.74] So, +[2790.74 --> 2790.78] so, +[2790.78 --> 2797.64] so like Sony's proprietary nonsense that they do is totally acceptable in that market. +[2797.64 --> 2798.04] So I, +[2798.14 --> 2799.86] so I didn't really have any better choice, +[2799.86 --> 2801.88] but basically, +[2801.88 --> 2805.32] will I buy another piece of Sony gear after that experience? +[2805.32 --> 2806.74] Is the camera excellent? +[2806.88 --> 2807.16] Yes. +[2807.32 --> 2808.62] Has it served us very well? +[2808.76 --> 2809.10] Yes. +[2809.30 --> 2813.52] Did they issue a firmware update that they charged me $600 for? +[2814.04 --> 2814.52] Yes. +[2815.24 --> 2815.84] Ouch. +[2815.84 --> 2821.88] So they sold this camera with 4K capability as a big selling point. +[2821.96 --> 2823.56] It has a 4K sensor in it. +[2823.78 --> 2823.94] Right. +[2824.12 --> 2828.56] And then no ETA on the actual firmware that would enable this. +[2828.78 --> 2829.10] Nothing. +[2829.76 --> 2833.70] No ETA or price estimate on the recorder that was going to enable it. +[2833.72 --> 2834.26] By the way, +[2834.68 --> 2844.38] Sony's proprietary recorder that uses their proprietary recording module that uses their proprietary media is like $8,000. +[2844.38 --> 2846.06] So it's about the same price as the camera. +[2846.14 --> 2848.08] I could literally buy a red rig. +[2848.44 --> 2848.62] Yeah. +[2848.62 --> 2850.68] For the cost of that and shoot with an FS 700. +[2850.88 --> 2851.16] Like Sony, +[2851.22 --> 2851.88] are you high? +[2852.44 --> 2852.80] So, +[2853.10 --> 2853.56] so their, +[2853.66 --> 2862.96] so their proprietary solution costs double of what the one aftermarket solution that they've licensed the ability to record off this camera in raw mode costs. +[2863.32 --> 2863.92] So they, +[2863.96 --> 2868.66] they went and made their own solution make no sense because it's priced out to complete freaking lunch. +[2868.82 --> 2870.84] They want all those proprietary things. +[2870.94 --> 2872.74] They want you to pay for a firmware upgrade. +[2872.74 --> 2876.08] And I'm sitting here going, Sony, you haven't learned a damn thing. +[2876.42 --> 2876.94] Have you? +[2877.42 --> 2877.64] Yeah. +[2879.00 --> 2879.36] Yeah. +[2879.36 --> 2880.50] The whole pay in for firmware. +[2880.74 --> 2881.00] I mean, +[2881.08 --> 2885.34] I'm going to call BS right out of the gate on that because the whole fact is the firmware drives the hardware, +[2885.48 --> 2885.66] right? +[2885.72 --> 2885.98] I mean, +[2886.00 --> 2886.90] to support the software. +[2887.24 --> 2892.28] Don't be giving me extra features or fixing stuff that's supposed to already be fixed and then charging me for it. +[2892.40 --> 2892.58] Yeah. +[2892.62 --> 2894.52] That drives me absolutely nuts. +[2894.96 --> 2896.72] Sony's not the only one to do that either. +[2896.72 --> 2897.52] Uh, +[2897.52 --> 2900.44] but I do like how can and Canon's really forthcoming with their firmwares. +[2900.52 --> 2903.16] And I also like the fact that there's a lot of open source development for Canon too. +[2903.24 --> 2904.92] That's why I like to use the Canon platform. +[2905.22 --> 2908.00] You know what buttheads they're being to the open source crew, +[2908.14 --> 2908.46] right? +[2909.44 --> 2910.16] I haven't heard. +[2910.24 --> 2910.36] No. +[2910.42 --> 2910.68] Are they, +[2910.78 --> 2911.58] are they being pretty, +[2911.72 --> 2912.74] pretty hard headed about it? +[2912.90 --> 2913.16] Yeah. +[2913.16 --> 2913.38] No, +[2913.44 --> 2913.92] there's a, +[2914.08 --> 2915.50] I forget what camera it is. +[2915.56 --> 2916.14] I think the, +[2916.28 --> 2919.20] the issue is that it's capable of recording 4k, +[2919.34 --> 2924.34] but Canon has basically said anyone who makes a firmware for this that records in 4k. +[2925.52 --> 2925.96] Oh, +[2926.04 --> 2926.54] that's not that. +[2926.60 --> 2929.50] That's probably the magic lantern project for the 5d Mark three. +[2929.58 --> 2932.08] Cause I heard the Mark three sensor supports 4k, +[2932.20 --> 2934.02] but it only can record it for like, +[2934.08 --> 2934.20] even, +[2934.26 --> 2934.42] even, +[2934.50 --> 2935.74] even with the hacked firmware, +[2935.82 --> 2939.42] it can only record for like a maximum of like 10 seconds before the buffer memory runs out. +[2939.76 --> 2943.14] But I guess they just don't want people like overheating the sensors in them. +[2943.16 --> 2944.94] But oh, +[2945.10 --> 2946.22] I'm still going to run magic lantern. +[2946.30 --> 2946.64] Hey Canon, +[2946.72 --> 2947.08] if you're listening, +[2947.16 --> 2948.46] I'm running magic lantern on my camera. +[2949.04 --> 2949.24] Ha. +[2950.66 --> 2951.70] What are you going to do about it? +[2952.24 --> 2953.62] Probably not honor my warranty now. +[2953.72 --> 2954.18] Damn it. +[2954.30 --> 2954.46] No, +[2954.48 --> 2954.82] just kidding. +[2955.36 --> 2957.52] I think that's why people like black magic. +[2957.74 --> 2959.44] I don't even know why we're talking about cameras. +[2959.84 --> 2960.16] Um, +[2960.16 --> 2962.50] I think that's why people like black magic and, +[2962.50 --> 2963.34] uh, +[2963.66 --> 2964.32] what are the guys, +[2964.40 --> 2965.44] the guys that make a Sigma. +[2966.14 --> 2966.50] Yeah. +[2966.56 --> 2968.04] Taking camera market by storm right now. +[2968.06 --> 2968.28] Yeah. +[2968.48 --> 2968.70] Yep. +[2968.70 --> 2970.02] Guys like Sigma where it's like, +[2970.02 --> 2970.64] to me, +[2970.74 --> 2973.10] that's the biggest problem with a lot of, +[2973.16 --> 2982.30] different categories right now is that companies get into this rut where they release what the market will bear and price it at what the market will bear rather than actually trying to innovate. +[2982.30 --> 2984.38] We talked about black magic's new camera. +[2984.38 --> 2987.84] So it's $6,000 camera with like replaceable sensor, +[2988.24 --> 2989.70] 10 inch screen on the side, +[2989.98 --> 2992.50] two more five inch screens elsewhere on the camera, +[2992.58 --> 2994.92] like freaking amazing piece of kit. +[2995.06 --> 2997.76] Six grand shoots 4k out of the box. +[2997.76 --> 2999.86] And it's just like a big old, +[3000.00 --> 3000.48] you know, +[3000.70 --> 3010.82] screw you guys to everyone else because we're building what we can for the budget as opposed to what we think people should be willing to pay. +[3010.82 --> 3012.32] And black magic's not perfect. +[3012.44 --> 3014.56] A lot of their stuff is just fundamentally broken. +[3014.72 --> 3021.20] Like people complain about the difference in audio quality on fastest possible episodes that we shoot with our black magic cinema camera. +[3021.20 --> 3025.18] Even though we spent an additional $400 on a preamp for the stupid thing, +[3025.18 --> 3028.60] because the internal audio recording hardware is so broken. +[3028.88 --> 3030.04] Like it's not perfect, +[3030.30 --> 3031.32] but at least they're trying. +[3031.72 --> 3031.80] Yeah. +[3031.84 --> 3031.94] Well, +[3032.02 --> 3034.10] I've seen that their optics are amazing though. +[3034.16 --> 3034.30] I mean, +[3034.32 --> 3034.48] I've, +[3034.54 --> 3035.10] I saw a, +[3035.10 --> 3035.62] what is it? +[3035.64 --> 3038.24] Their little six or $700 handheld video camera. +[3038.32 --> 3039.34] It looks kind of like a flip video. +[3040.08 --> 3040.40] Um, +[3040.76 --> 3040.98] Oh, +[3041.10 --> 3041.52] I don't know. +[3041.58 --> 3042.56] Are you talking about the pocket? +[3042.92 --> 3043.06] Yeah. +[3043.06 --> 3044.10] The black magic pocket. +[3044.18 --> 3044.50] It's like, +[3044.50 --> 3045.52] it's fairly inexpensive, +[3045.64 --> 3046.48] but it shoots 10 ADP. +[3046.52 --> 3047.00] I was watching, +[3047.14 --> 3047.42] uh, +[3047.42 --> 3049.12] back when I was thinking about buying a video camera, +[3049.12 --> 3051.30] I was looking at the video quality on that thing. +[3051.32 --> 3052.94] And I was genuinely shocked. +[3052.94 --> 3055.96] Like I didn't see anything else that even came close to that form factor. +[3056.10 --> 3056.98] Money aside. +[3057.50 --> 3057.98] We have pockets. +[3057.98 --> 3060.72] Like they own that market for the quality and that size. +[3060.72 --> 3061.12] And I was like, +[3061.18 --> 3062.86] why are these not flying off shelves? +[3062.86 --> 3063.96] And I went and read a bunch of reviews. +[3063.96 --> 3064.70] And just like you were saying, +[3064.76 --> 3068.22] people were saying there's problems with them hanging and locking up a battery life issues. +[3068.22 --> 3070.50] It seemed like they got it. +[3070.74 --> 3071.10] Like the, +[3071.10 --> 3071.52] the, +[3071.52 --> 3074.90] the quality of what it could produce was absolutely amazing. +[3074.90 --> 3077.62] But the technical stuff you had to deal with to get there was painful. +[3077.62 --> 3078.20] And that's, +[3078.22 --> 3079.32] that's ultimately what killed it. +[3079.46 --> 3079.96] It's like, +[3080.06 --> 3080.52] it's the, +[3080.58 --> 3081.76] it's the hacker product. +[3081.76 --> 3083.64] It's for the folks that are willing to, +[3083.66 --> 3084.72] to dink around with it. +[3084.72 --> 3085.44] Like our guy, +[3085.50 --> 3085.80] uh, +[3085.80 --> 3088.22] Brandon loves his pocket. +[3088.38 --> 3089.40] And he has a, +[3089.52 --> 3090.48] he's his two and a half K, +[3090.56 --> 3090.72] right? +[3090.86 --> 3091.08] No, +[3091.22 --> 3092.30] ours are the two we have. +[3092.38 --> 3093.36] We have a two and a half K. +[3093.60 --> 3094.22] We were sorry. +[3094.32 --> 3094.42] We, +[3094.58 --> 3096.90] so we have two black magic cinema cameras. +[3096.90 --> 3097.94] That's the two and a half K one. +[3097.94 --> 3098.80] The slightly bigger one. +[3098.92 --> 3100.26] And then Ed has one. +[3100.46 --> 3102.02] And then Brandon has a pocket. +[3102.64 --> 3102.72] Yeah. +[3102.74 --> 3104.28] But I thought his pocket is two and a half K. +[3104.36 --> 3104.56] No, +[3104.68 --> 3105.64] that one's 10 ADP, +[3105.74 --> 3107.50] but it's really nice. +[3107.58 --> 3108.02] 10 ADP. +[3108.08 --> 3108.80] It shoots pro res. +[3109.24 --> 3109.72] I heard, +[3109.78 --> 3111.10] I heard him saying all weekend, +[3111.22 --> 3111.68] it's a pocket, +[3111.78 --> 3112.40] two and a half K. +[3112.90 --> 3113.12] Dude, +[3113.16 --> 3114.92] if you could shoot two and a half K on a pocket, +[3115.02 --> 3115.30] that is, +[3115.36 --> 3115.56] yeah, +[3115.58 --> 3115.76] no, +[3115.84 --> 3116.02] it's, +[3116.10 --> 3116.52] it's not. +[3116.60 --> 3117.56] If you're shooting on his pocket, +[3117.60 --> 3118.62] it's definitely 10 ADP. +[3119.08 --> 3119.46] Um, +[3119.64 --> 3119.94] all right, +[3119.94 --> 3121.34] let's move into our next topic. +[3121.74 --> 3124.92] I think we usually do half an hour guest segments, +[3124.92 --> 3127.26] but this has been kind of a different show from usual. +[3127.26 --> 3128.36] It's pretty casual. +[3128.48 --> 3130.16] I think we've managed to do like two topics so far, +[3130.24 --> 3131.74] so you can hang around with us, +[3131.78 --> 3133.62] but you're not obligated to just, +[3133.72 --> 3133.98] uh, +[3134.18 --> 3135.34] throwing that out there. +[3135.34 --> 3135.92] I don't, +[3135.98 --> 3136.90] I don't feel any obligation. +[3137.06 --> 3137.62] I like hanging out. +[3137.92 --> 3138.78] We've got like, +[3139.08 --> 3141.82] we've got like over 5,000 viewers right now. +[3142.00 --> 3144.02] That's actually really strong. +[3144.06 --> 3146.56] Cause my streams usually get about 12 or 15,000. +[3147.04 --> 3147.98] I'm so joking. +[3148.08 --> 3148.20] Dude. +[3148.30 --> 3150.72] I get like 50 or a hundred. +[3150.72 --> 3151.72] Um, +[3154.16 --> 3154.40] okay. +[3154.40 --> 3155.38] This is pretty cool. +[3155.76 --> 3162.04] So Intel is allegedly losing billions on tablet and smartphone categories. +[3162.54 --> 3165.60] So this was posted on the forum by good bites. +[3165.86 --> 3167.14] Intel makes smartphones. +[3167.32 --> 3167.50] What? +[3167.86 --> 3168.18] Well, +[3168.22 --> 3170.10] they do have smartphone processors, +[3170.40 --> 3170.86] smart guy. +[3171.26 --> 3171.78] Um, +[3171.86 --> 3173.34] in recent months, +[3173.42 --> 3175.12] Intel has been under pressure. +[3175.12 --> 3180.26] So this is from the verge to explain why personal computers haven't been selling quite as well. +[3180.58 --> 3180.80] Lol. +[3181.34 --> 3181.72] And, +[3181.88 --> 3184.34] but the chip maker may have another pressing concern, +[3184.50 --> 3186.46] losing billions of dollars on mobile. +[3186.46 --> 3187.68] In 2013, +[3187.96 --> 3196.44] Intel's mobile chip division lost a staggering 3.15 billion after posting an operating loss of 1.78 billion in 2012. +[3197.22 --> 3199.30] And in the first quarter of 2014 alone, +[3199.42 --> 3204.48] the mobile and communications group saw a 9.29 million operating loss on a meager +[3204.48 --> 3207.36] 156 million in revenue, +[3207.36 --> 3210.42] according to new financial results issued today by the company. +[3212.12 --> 3220.52] So what I have to say to this is investors need to like cool it and understand that this is a long-term play for Intel. +[3220.68 --> 3233.88] Intel has been making so much ground up over the last two years or so compared to ARM solutions in terms of their power efficiency and performance within those power envelopes that we need +[3233.88 --> 3237.82] in order for them to really be a competitor in tablet and in smartphone, +[3238.20 --> 3243.44] they're still ahead of everyone else on manufacturing process nodes and all that stuff. +[3243.56 --> 3244.90] They're still the technology leader. +[3245.40 --> 3249.34] Give them a little bit longer, and they're going to dominate. +[3249.82 --> 3251.92] But I'm open to other opinions on this. +[3252.46 --> 3254.60] No, I tend to actually agree with you on this. +[3254.74 --> 3258.40] I think I, and I'll probably take some backlash from this, but you know I say anything. +[3258.52 --> 3260.40] But I think ARM's getting played out. +[3260.40 --> 3265.26] I just, the performance versus power consumption thing just doesn't do it for me. +[3265.72 --> 3271.60] I've still yet to see a single ARM solution that's really like pushing the power that I've seen Intel capable on a similar size platform. +[3271.94 --> 3275.76] Now, granted, consuming a hell of a lot more power and therefore killing your battery life, +[3275.88 --> 3281.62] but it's one of those things where it's like, yeah, I'd rather have a lot of power for three hours than no power at all for 10. +[3281.78 --> 3282.98] I mean, that's just me generally. +[3283.08 --> 3284.06] I'm more of a power user. +[3284.90 --> 3288.86] But Intel, and the other thing too is, yeah, they might be losing money hand over fist, +[3288.86 --> 3290.50] according to this article in the mobile space. +[3290.78 --> 3293.56] But, you know, how are they doing in the desktop and server space? +[3293.58 --> 3298.08] Because, I mean, they're still, they're, I mean, they're heavy dominators in both of those spaces and will continue to be. +[3298.22 --> 3300.52] And that could be allocated acceptable loss. +[3300.84 --> 3302.56] They might have known that that was going to happen. +[3302.70 --> 3304.94] And they were like, oh, this is going to cost this much to get done. +[3305.04 --> 3305.84] Okay, whatever, let's do it. +[3305.96 --> 3309.24] I mean, big companies like this can lose $5, $10 billion in a lawsuit. +[3309.50 --> 3314.06] I mean, it's like, so I don't, when I see numbers like that, I'm like, okay, what's their, what's their total projected revenue? +[3314.06 --> 3319.08] I mean, if they made $20 billion that year and they're down $3 billion because of the mobile division, I mean, you know, boo-hoo. +[3319.28 --> 3320.84] I mean, it's fine. +[3320.90 --> 3324.24] It's just one of those things where it's an acceptable loss while you're pushing into that space. +[3325.26 --> 3330.34] And the other thing is Intel, I remember reading an article a couple years back where they were talking about, you know, +[3330.34 --> 3333.60] they're starting to hit the cap of the frequency that the chips can operate at. +[3333.64 --> 3335.02] So now they're trying to go for more cores, right? +[3335.02 --> 3337.40] They're trying to go out and kind of get that breadth over depth. +[3337.40 --> 3345.66] And so, you know, it's not, I think Intel here in the next couple of years, we're going to start seeing like, you know, 16 core, 32 core CPUs. +[3345.70 --> 3346.82] These are going to be like commonplace. +[3347.30 --> 3348.76] And it's been, sorry, go ahead. +[3349.02 --> 3349.66] No, no, no, go ahead. +[3349.98 --> 3359.74] It's been frustrating for the enthusiasts, I think, where, you know, we would have loved to have Intel delivering us a 12 core extreme editions, you know, last year. +[3359.82 --> 3360.82] And they could have. +[3361.12 --> 3361.70] Yes, they could. +[3362.04 --> 3363.64] But Intel's very patient. +[3363.64 --> 3369.32] I mean, you'll look at AMD's eight core solution that they did deliver to the enthusiasts. +[3370.02 --> 3372.16] And did that product really make any sense? +[3372.56 --> 3378.10] You could find benchmarks where an FX8350 had an advantage due to its higher core count. +[3378.48 --> 3379.82] You could find those benchmarks. +[3380.12 --> 3391.88] But the thing ran so hot and consumed so much power and had such a big die compared to Intel's low power, small die, more nimble competitors, +[3391.88 --> 3396.60] that you look at it and you go, well, was Intel smarter to just not bother? +[3397.26 --> 3398.88] Were they smarter to just be patient? +[3398.98 --> 3400.96] Like this whole ARM thing that's going on. +[3401.28 --> 3405.26] Are they just holding their cards to their chest going, you know what? +[3405.44 --> 3408.06] We're going to be ready with x86 eventually. +[3408.06 --> 3416.02] So it's going to take until, you know, like Intel's the kind of company there's going to be a one year plan, a five year plan, a 10 year plan. +[3416.36 --> 3420.88] And you're just going to kind of go, OK, 2020, like we're going to be ready. +[3421.26 --> 3422.28] We're going to crush it. +[3422.52 --> 3426.60] So we're just going to keep staying ahead in terms of manufacturing. +[3426.60 --> 3428.50] We're going to keep being the technology leader. +[3428.50 --> 3431.06] And this whole thing is going to happen. +[3431.06 --> 3433.24] And then we're going to we're just going to come in and dominate. +[3433.24 --> 3448.14] Because the thing about smartphone processors and tablet processors is those manufacturers are so eager to save a dollar to win a benchmark and find the balance between those two things. +[3448.14 --> 3450.60] That I don't think there's any loyalty to Qualcomm. +[3450.80 --> 3453.06] I don't think there's any loyalty to ARM. +[3453.34 --> 3454.14] You look at Samsung. +[3454.42 --> 3458.44] They don't even use their own Exynos processor in tons of their products. +[3458.50 --> 3466.02] They use whatever is the most competitive solution today to put into that phone to deliver the best performance possible. +[3466.22 --> 3474.70] So taking over the smartphone market is as simple as having the product that's better at this exact now point in time. +[3474.70 --> 3479.82] I mean, you look at how NVIDIA, how much momentum NVIDIA had with Tegra 2. +[3480.74 --> 3485.36] And then how that has translated into absolutely nothing for Tegra 4. +[3485.36 --> 3485.68] Yeah. +[3486.88 --> 3500.54] And the other thing is you're not a smart move for a company is just like you were saying with the five year plan and the 10 year plan is just because you have something better on deck doesn't mean that's the time to release it because you can still profit from all of the generations leading up to it. +[3500.68 --> 3501.00] That's right. +[3501.08 --> 3505.38] I mean, yeah, you're not you're not going to just go to the market and be like, oh, wow, we created a 32 core processor. +[3505.50 --> 3505.92] It's sound. +[3505.92 --> 3506.76] It works great. +[3507.16 --> 3508.74] You can charge two thousand dollars for it. +[3508.80 --> 3509.46] It's cost effective here. +[3509.52 --> 3513.74] Let's take it to market because then the problem is as soon as you do that, all of your competition is going to start. +[3513.94 --> 3517.30] Well, they're either going to have their own product already on deck ready to go and they're going to have to counter. +[3517.68 --> 3518.90] And then both everybody loses. +[3519.02 --> 3519.22] Right. +[3519.28 --> 3520.06] Except for the consumer. +[3520.10 --> 3521.94] The consumer is like, we're hauling ass. +[3521.94 --> 3526.48] But at the same time, the company's lost all that money in revenue leading up to that. +[3526.52 --> 3528.02] And that's why I think you see these inch wars. +[3528.22 --> 3531.42] You know, you see one one CPU manufacturer comes out with something. +[3531.74 --> 3533.18] The next one comes out with something that's comparable. +[3533.36 --> 3535.30] Plus one, like literally plus one. +[3535.48 --> 3538.12] It's just a little bit better than the next generation comes out. +[3538.18 --> 3538.74] It's a little bit better. +[3538.80 --> 3539.46] It's a little bit better. +[3539.82 --> 3544.20] I find that really hard to believe that everything is just in these little microns and inches. +[3544.20 --> 3550.30] You know, I have to believe that those companies have a lot of tech that's on deck that they're just holding back because it's not profitable to release it at this time. +[3550.88 --> 3551.48] You know what? +[3551.48 --> 3553.88] I think there's some of that. +[3554.26 --> 3570.86] But I also believe that because of the way the technology advances, that sometimes two companies with completely different roadmaps and completely different technology can actually just be neck and neck constantly. +[3570.86 --> 3581.28] Like, I don't believe for a second that if AMD had a graphics card that costs half as much and performed twice as fast as NVIDIA, that they wouldn't release it. +[3581.48 --> 3582.38] I believe they would. +[3582.72 --> 3583.80] I think they just can't. +[3584.04 --> 3585.04] Those guys hate each other. +[3585.38 --> 3585.96] I know. +[3586.06 --> 3586.32] I know. +[3587.32 --> 3589.68] I can't go into details, but trust me, I know this. +[3589.68 --> 3594.96] But the thing with the GPU, guys, I tend to agree with you. +[3595.08 --> 3597.82] They're both ramming their head against the wall, neck and neck. +[3597.90 --> 3600.42] And the thing is, they're drastically different. +[3600.50 --> 3606.90] A lot of people don't realize that the way Crossfire works versus NVIDIA SLI is completely different. +[3607.00 --> 3612.32] The way the AMD leans heavily on having more cores versus NVIDIA having less cores and faster cores. +[3612.32 --> 3616.34] The technologies are so radically different, yet the end result is so close. +[3616.66 --> 3617.50] Every time. +[3618.12 --> 3618.76] Every time. +[3618.88 --> 3626.20] So I tend to agree with you that I think it's more along the lines of when one company gets a little bit faster, the other company goes, how do we tweak it to make it better? +[3626.28 --> 3628.94] Or just put a giant-ass heat sink, water cooler, five. +[3629.16 --> 3632.88] You know, it's like, what do we have to do to get it to its absolute bleeding edge? +[3633.28 --> 3635.94] And a good example of this, too, would be back in the old CPU wars. +[3636.10 --> 3638.62] Like, you remember the old Celeron 300A, right? +[3638.94 --> 3639.16] Yep. +[3639.28 --> 3643.10] The old, you know, I called it the Nintendo cartridge because you literally plugged it in like once. +[3643.52 --> 3644.84] And I remember those things. +[3644.86 --> 3650.48] You'd go buy these 300As, and they would overclock 150 megahertz out of the box on air. +[3650.58 --> 3653.06] You could go from 300 to 450 megahertz. +[3653.12 --> 3658.30] And if you had a chosen awesome Malaysian one, a sweet one, you could get over 500 megahertz on those things. +[3658.42 --> 3662.90] I mean, that is a giant percentage jump in performance out of the CPU. +[3663.02 --> 3666.00] And, I mean, that's when the overclocking really took off from that point. +[3666.00 --> 3668.74] And then motherboard manufacturers are like, all right, cat's out of the bag. +[3669.10 --> 3672.30] Intel's obviously producing stuff that could be pushed a hell of a lot harder. +[3672.76 --> 3675.74] And now the chip manufacturers expect you to do it, right? +[3675.80 --> 3680.32] I mean, Intel sells you a CPU, and they're like, oh, here, here's a 3.4 gigahertz CPU with turbo boost. +[3680.56 --> 3680.82] Yeah. +[3680.88 --> 3683.46] And if you go on the BIOS, it'll go 10 times faster. +[3683.60 --> 3685.58] I mean, it's expected. +[3685.58 --> 3686.36] 10 times faster? +[3686.86 --> 3687.68] You heard it here first. +[3688.32 --> 3692.36] I'm going to buy an Asus board because it has a BIOS where you select an option that says make it go faster. +[3692.36 --> 3693.64] And I'm not joking. +[3693.80 --> 3696.18] That's literally what Asus BIOSes are like now. +[3696.26 --> 3698.58] You go in there, and it's like, you know, it used to be overclocking. +[3698.64 --> 3703.98] It was like, yeah, I'm going to tweak my CPU, get the voltage up there, mess with the V core and the PLU voltage and everything. +[3704.22 --> 3708.00] No, now you go in there, and it's like, let's see, faster, fastest, extreme. +[3708.16 --> 3708.36] Enter. +[3709.64 --> 3716.48] Well, you know, and Asus's self-overclocking utility is actually really good. +[3716.48 --> 3723.28] I mean, Gigabyte's NSI's implementations with OC Genie and then whatever Gigabyte calls their thing, not very good. +[3723.40 --> 3732.58] They're just kind of taking an approximate profile based on the, you know, thousand or couple thousand chips that they get to validate their boards. +[3732.80 --> 3740.26] And they're kind of doing a cross-section of, okay, well, 90% of them are going to hit this setting, so that's the profile we're going to apply. +[3740.26 --> 3756.26] Asus's actually goes and stress tests the CPU and keeps increasing things and dials in an overclock to the point where the last time I played with it, which was, I think, Ivy Bridge, not Haswell. +[3756.52 --> 3759.56] It was within like 100 megahertz of what I could do on my own. +[3760.46 --> 3761.52] No, no, no, exactly. +[3761.90 --> 3764.20] And I think mine was even a tighter tolerance than that. +[3764.20 --> 3770.32] When I first got the CPU, I have a 30, what was it, I think I got a 3930K in this one running 4.5, a little over 4.5. +[3770.58 --> 3770.76] Right. +[3770.90 --> 3775.62] And, yeah, I used that utility, I think, to get like to 4.3, 4.4. +[3775.84 --> 3781.02] And then the only reason the utility wouldn't take it any further is because it wouldn't go beyond a certain threshold on the voltage. +[3781.14 --> 3782.78] Well, I'm liquid cooled, so I was like, screw you guys. +[3782.82 --> 3783.90] I'm going to just do it. +[3784.64 --> 3784.98] Go for gold. +[3785.42 --> 3788.46] But it's a great idea because that's exactly what you should be doing. +[3789.06 --> 3790.78] And I do a lot of automation work. +[3790.78 --> 3796.56] A lot of what I do at my daily job is actually developing automation to run test scenarios and things like that. +[3796.62 --> 3800.82] And it makes sense that when you write automation that you mimic what an actual human being would do. +[3800.90 --> 3803.30] You try to make the same rational decisions and everything. +[3803.42 --> 3805.28] And that's kind of what the program is doing. +[3805.36 --> 3807.22] And I like that it takes that outlook on it. +[3807.24 --> 3808.92] It's like we're going to bump it up a little bit, try it. +[3808.96 --> 3811.26] If it doesn't work, we're going to back it off or go a different direction. +[3811.42 --> 3813.42] If it doesn't work, back it off, go in a different direction. +[3813.52 --> 3820.76] I like the fact that the motherboard manufacturer was like, all right, well, let's design the software to work in tandem with the firmware, BIOS or EFI or whatever. +[3820.76 --> 3822.14] You know, depending on your situation. +[3822.50 --> 3829.02] Let's make it work in tandem with that so that the machine can basically just sit there and power cycle itself and continuously adapt itself until it's stable. +[3829.68 --> 3835.28] I mean, calling Asus is calling Asus's software, something that works is sort of. +[3835.50 --> 3835.70] Yeah. +[3836.06 --> 3839.68] Well, honestly, I've played with Asus software, gigabyte software. +[3839.82 --> 3842.24] I've even played with some of the for the GPU stuff. +[3842.44 --> 3842.82] What was it? +[3842.84 --> 3844.66] The ATI overclocking utility. +[3844.76 --> 3846.14] God, I can't remember what name of it is. +[3846.30 --> 3847.08] Really old one. +[3847.56 --> 3847.96] Overdrive. +[3848.34 --> 3848.50] Yeah. +[3848.50 --> 3850.68] And it's like this ancient, ancient utility. +[3850.80 --> 3854.56] And it cracks me up because it like works on AMD processors and it works on video processors. +[3854.98 --> 3856.82] And you can tweak all these weird settings and everything. +[3857.18 --> 3861.50] I love it when you pick up a piece of software that looks like it was wholeheartedly designed for one thing. +[3861.52 --> 3862.82] And it just works for everything else. +[3862.94 --> 3863.44] Everything else. +[3863.54 --> 3864.62] Like Western Digital. +[3864.70 --> 3865.50] Western Digital creates. +[3865.58 --> 3865.84] What is that? +[3865.88 --> 3868.30] The Western Digital data drive utility. +[3868.42 --> 3869.52] God, my brain is not working today. +[3869.62 --> 3869.82] Anyways. +[3870.00 --> 3870.90] Well, Seagate has C tools. +[3870.96 --> 3872.32] And I know that works on anything. +[3872.82 --> 3873.94] They all work on everything. +[3874.02 --> 3874.70] It cracks me up. +[3874.70 --> 3879.66] It's like the other day, my boss was trying to get me to recover some data off of his broken Samsung drive. +[3879.82 --> 3882.06] And I just happened to have the Western Digital utility installed. +[3882.12 --> 3882.98] So I opened up Western Digital. +[3883.06 --> 3884.40] I was like, yeah, here, I'll check out the drive. +[3884.48 --> 3885.68] Yeah, here, I'll recover your data. +[3885.84 --> 3887.58] I was like, all right. +[3888.50 --> 3889.76] Well, all right, Western Digital. +[3889.96 --> 3890.94] That's pretty cool. +[3891.20 --> 3896.06] You know, and it's like when you see stuff like the AMD tools working with NVIDIA, you're like, how is this even possible? +[3896.06 --> 3901.16] I mean, other than them sharing like a basic software technology like DirectX or OpenGL, they're completely different. +[3901.50 --> 3901.68] Yeah. +[3902.50 --> 3903.88] It's very strange. +[3904.22 --> 3907.48] So I just realized it's like almost 6 o'clock already. +[3907.64 --> 3909.92] I know that you're not going to be sticking around much longer. +[3909.92 --> 3913.14] So we should definitely do our sponsor spots here. +[3913.60 --> 3917.26] So number one is Squarespace.com. +[3917.36 --> 3921.04] Guys, Squarespace is the easy way to set up your own beautiful website. +[3921.36 --> 3924.74] They actually had something that they wanted me to talk about this week. +[3924.74 --> 3925.96] This was, what's that? +[3926.50 --> 3929.98] I was going to say get it because it's a square because Barnas Cleese was making a square. +[3930.14 --> 3930.96] I was making a square. +[3931.12 --> 3932.08] Yeah, he's not on screen. +[3932.18 --> 3932.82] They can't see him. +[3932.82 --> 3933.64] So then I was like, get it. +[3933.66 --> 3935.68] And then I was like, no, no one gets it. +[3935.68 --> 3937.38] I'm sad now. +[3938.08 --> 3940.58] None of the jokes were gotten. +[3940.88 --> 3941.32] None. +[3941.56 --> 3942.78] At this point in time. +[3943.16 --> 3943.50] Fail. +[3943.90 --> 3949.66] So Squarespace did ask me to mention that they have been nominated for four webbies. +[3949.66 --> 3956.10] So the link here is sqsp.meq5brwa. +[3956.46 --> 3961.26] And they asked me to reach out to my audience and be like, yo guys, can you vote for them? +[3961.54 --> 3963.70] Because the webbies are sort of a big deal. +[3963.78 --> 3964.28] So I went ahead. +[3964.36 --> 3965.94] I posted that link in the Twitch chat. +[3966.26 --> 3966.96] Please do. +[3967.10 --> 3968.62] By the way, guys, Jerry's not gone. +[3968.98 --> 3969.90] Jerry's still here. +[3970.02 --> 3975.26] He's just replaced by Squarespace because Squarespace makes such beautiful websites. +[3975.26 --> 3981.40] And Jerry just can't compete with a beautiful website like linusmediagroup.com. +[3981.52 --> 3985.40] Jerry was in a Squarespace and now Squarespace is in a rectangular space. +[3985.92 --> 3987.22] I'm so confused right now. +[3987.42 --> 3987.62] Yeah. +[3987.92 --> 3989.30] This is like space deception. +[3989.50 --> 3990.54] Why is he back again? +[3990.60 --> 3991.54] Let's get rid of this guy. +[3991.56 --> 3992.02] There we go. +[3992.18 --> 3995.88] So Squarespace is good because they've been hassling me to create a web page. +[3995.96 --> 3997.24] So should I take them up on it? +[3997.50 --> 3998.32] You know what? +[3998.98 --> 3999.64] It's good stuff. +[4000.26 --> 4002.46] Aside from them being a sponsor of our show. +[4002.46 --> 4003.46] Aside from that. +[4003.70 --> 4005.22] We used them far before they were a sponsor. +[4005.36 --> 4009.72] We used them before they were a sponsor because it's really inexpensive and it's really easy. +[4010.10 --> 4010.54] And you know what? +[4010.58 --> 4011.20] This is okay. +[4011.28 --> 4013.62] Aside from the webby thing that they did ask me to mention. +[4014.88 --> 4019.00] Have you noticed that every Kickstarter has a Squarespace site? +[4019.44 --> 4020.96] I have noticed that actually. +[4021.38 --> 4021.44] No. +[4022.10 --> 4023.08] That's funny though. +[4023.26 --> 4025.32] Go on kickstarter.com. +[4026.24 --> 4027.26] Find a Kickstarter. +[4027.96 --> 4028.76] Go to their website. +[4028.76 --> 4029.42] Oh, look now. +[4029.42 --> 4033.00] Because Squarespace, they've only got like I think it's less than 30 templates. +[4033.24 --> 4036.36] So they have templates that are optimized for having a. +[4036.56 --> 4036.92] So you can tell. +[4036.92 --> 4037.12] Right. +[4037.32 --> 4037.42] Yeah. +[4037.62 --> 4038.08] So you can tell. +[4038.28 --> 4042.00] So they have templates that are optimized for like an e-commerce thing. +[4042.10 --> 4045.72] They have blog optimized ones, portfolio optimized ones or whatever else. +[4046.00 --> 4050.80] And I swear they should just have a template called Kickstarter because they all used it. +[4050.80 --> 4052.30] You know what the sad thing is? +[4052.36 --> 4054.08] I actually am a web developer. +[4054.24 --> 4058.18] I mean I'm very, very versed in MVC4 and ASP.NET technology, SQL. +[4058.44 --> 4059.80] I'm very comfortable with all that stuff. +[4059.86 --> 4065.46] But the problem is building a web page from the ground up using those technologies is like pulling teeth. +[4065.56 --> 4068.90] Yes, if it's my job and they're paying me for it and I got six months to do it, hey, rock on. +[4068.94 --> 4071.44] But I don't have that time to make my own personal site that way. +[4071.70 --> 4073.16] I literally just want to be lazy. +[4073.16 --> 4076.18] It's like I'm like the mechanic that takes his car to Jiffy Lube. +[4076.28 --> 4080.22] You know, it's like I just I just want to get a website up and I want it to work for people. +[4080.38 --> 4086.42] And I don't want everybody coming at me and saying, yeah, I'm getting 404 errors constantly because you like screwed up the threading or something on, you know, on your forum. +[4086.52 --> 4087.52] I don't want to deal with that. +[4087.80 --> 4090.52] And with Squarespace, you can dink around with it if you want. +[4090.80 --> 4092.02] They have an advanced mode. +[4092.02 --> 4094.82] So you can you can totally play around with things if you want to. +[4094.86 --> 4095.66] What's their function? +[4096.06 --> 4096.92] What are they based on? +[4097.30 --> 4097.68] I'm sorry? +[4098.02 --> 4099.12] What are they based on? +[4099.16 --> 4102.48] Are they are they like are they Linux, Windows, ASP, Net, Apache? +[4102.48 --> 4104.40] Like what do what do they use for their back end? +[4104.58 --> 4105.64] Look who you're talking to, man. +[4105.92 --> 4109.96] I actually never touched it because Ed's actually did all the design. +[4110.06 --> 4110.80] So I don't know. +[4110.90 --> 4111.96] And neither of them will know. +[4112.06 --> 4113.32] So that question is going nowhere. +[4113.64 --> 4113.82] All right. +[4113.86 --> 4118.02] So can I drag and drop my pictures and people can see them? +[4118.28 --> 4119.68] That's how easy it is. +[4119.74 --> 4121.76] Our designer basically did the site. +[4122.04 --> 4122.22] Yeah. +[4122.84 --> 4124.18] I actually never touched it. +[4124.40 --> 4125.42] I'm going to try it out, guys. +[4125.52 --> 4125.74] All right. +[4125.82 --> 4127.78] Square space site coming your way. +[4128.04 --> 4128.46] All right. +[4128.48 --> 4128.70] Cool. +[4128.80 --> 4129.02] OK. +[4129.12 --> 4130.10] And look at that. +[4130.20 --> 4131.04] We look at that. +[4131.04 --> 4131.48] So, OK. +[4131.48 --> 4134.78] So just as a reminder, guys, squarespace.com slash Linus. +[4134.88 --> 4136.50] You can save 10 percent, Barnacles. +[4137.02 --> 4140.64] So make sure you save your 10 percent on your new activation with offer code Linus. +[4141.12 --> 4141.32] All right. +[4141.32 --> 4142.56] Let's move into our next. +[4142.56 --> 4142.92] Give me your affiliate link. +[4142.96 --> 4144.12] I don't want Linus getting my 10 percent. +[4144.36 --> 4144.78] Oh, wow. +[4145.10 --> 4145.82] I'm just kidding. +[4145.98 --> 4146.60] I'm just kidding. +[4146.96 --> 4148.66] You come on my show. +[4149.14 --> 4152.26] You don't give me my 10 percent or your 10 percent. +[4152.28 --> 4153.28] It's your 10 percent. +[4153.56 --> 4155.94] I don't even get I don't even get anything for it. +[4155.94 --> 4159.22] I don't even get a commission on those signups. +[4159.34 --> 4161.82] They just they sponsored the show at a flat rate. +[4162.28 --> 4164.32] So I went to stab you with my 3D printed knife. +[4164.42 --> 4164.58] OK. +[4164.70 --> 4164.86] Here. +[4164.94 --> 4165.36] Hold still. +[4165.84 --> 4166.80] That's actually pretty cool. +[4167.60 --> 4171.14] I went to the gaming section and I didn't see any sites designed by Squarespace. +[4171.32 --> 4173.68] And I was like, that kind of makes sense maybe because these are all programmers. +[4173.68 --> 4177.88] So I jumped to the design side and I'm pretty sure this is Squarespace site and it's the very first one I love. +[4179.10 --> 4179.92] There you go. +[4180.30 --> 4180.58] All right. +[4180.64 --> 4186.72] So we do have one more sponsor today and that is Asus with their G750JZ notebook. +[4187.06 --> 4191.74] The notebook that actually doesn't make a ton of sense for us to be sitting here on the show using. +[4192.40 --> 4193.34] Unless we're Jay-Z. +[4193.54 --> 4194.34] Thank you for that. +[4194.88 --> 4195.38] Ah ha. +[4195.58 --> 4195.68] Ah ha. +[4195.68 --> 4196.08] Oh. +[4196.08 --> 4196.50] Yes. +[4197.42 --> 4198.48] You know that I actually. +[4198.74 --> 4199.22] Victory. +[4199.22 --> 4206.48] I actually have to send these sponsor spots to our sponsors and they get to hear that joke. +[4206.82 --> 4209.94] But look at the interaction with Twitch chat which hasn't started happening yet. +[4209.94 --> 4210.22] They don't. +[4210.28 --> 4210.50] But it might. +[4210.66 --> 4213.22] They don't watch the whole show for context. +[4213.62 --> 4221.00] All they hear is, wow, they made a joke about the letters J and Z being in the product part number. +[4221.58 --> 4223.42] See, the people in the chat love it. +[4223.56 --> 4224.62] You are like a genius. +[4225.02 --> 4225.40] I am. +[4225.40 --> 4226.86] Hey, Jay-Z jokes are funny, OK? +[4226.94 --> 4229.00] I saw a Supra, a Toyota Supra with the hood open. +[4229.00 --> 4233.58] There was two pictures of Jay-Z under the hood and it said two Jay-Z because there's two of them. +[4233.70 --> 4235.00] And that's the engine. +[4235.10 --> 4235.80] Well, you guys would know that. +[4235.82 --> 4236.76] You're not car nerds, are you? +[4237.08 --> 4237.34] No. +[4237.56 --> 4237.72] No. +[4237.96 --> 4238.36] Not so much. +[4238.36 --> 4239.42] All right. +[4239.50 --> 4244.46] I'm bringing you into our sponsor spot because we're actually going to turn this sponsor spot +[4244.46 --> 4252.22] into a bit of a discussion about the G750JZ because last week he, OK, I'll move him down, OK? +[4252.34 --> 4252.80] Can you just. +[4253.44 --> 4254.42] I was patting his head. +[4254.46 --> 4256.44] Can everyone just calm down for a second? +[4256.78 --> 4258.06] I'm trying to do something here. +[4258.06 --> 4258.82] All right. +[4258.90 --> 4263.14] So last week when I did my sponsor spot for the, for the 750JZ. +[4265.66 --> 4268.58] Now I'm not going to be able to say that was a straight face for the rest of the show. +[4268.68 --> 4269.42] I hate you. +[4269.98 --> 4271.00] I hate you. +[4271.32 --> 4272.26] Oh my God. +[4272.34 --> 4272.50] OK. +[4272.50 --> 4278.16] The problem was that I had set one up for myself to use and I'd been like, yep, I'm ready +[4278.16 --> 4279.30] to rock on this thing. +[4279.40 --> 4282.24] I'm going to like play around with it and benchmark it a little bit. +[4282.38 --> 4288.00] And then this guy flies out to Boston, takes my machine that I set up and I got to start +[4288.00 --> 4288.86] over from scratch. +[4288.96 --> 4289.90] So I'm just like, oh, now. +[4289.90 --> 4291.74] Wait, you took, you took the one you had set up. +[4291.74 --> 4297.18] Now it's all tedious and I have to like log into all my accounts and all this crap again. +[4297.30 --> 4302.84] So I actually had to do the show last week having just taken the laptop out of the box, +[4303.12 --> 4305.18] basically put it on my lap and started the show. +[4305.54 --> 4309.56] So aside from appreciating that the cooling system on it is pretty good and my lap doesn't +[4309.56 --> 4311.84] get too hot, especially for a gaming notebook. +[4311.84 --> 4313.96] I really didn't have much to say about it. +[4314.78 --> 4317.60] But since then, we have benchmarked the thing. +[4317.86 --> 4325.06] And let me, let me ask you this, Jerry, did you know that the GTX 880 M is actually pretty +[4325.06 --> 4328.08] damn close to the full spec of a GTX 770? +[4328.68 --> 4330.92] No, but that's pretty damn impressive being in a laptop. +[4331.04 --> 4331.96] What's the battery life like? +[4332.04 --> 4332.48] 20 minutes? +[4333.40 --> 4337.50] Actually, we, the one thing we haven't benched is battery life, but I'm assuming it's not +[4337.50 --> 4339.28] like hours and hours and hours when you're gaming. +[4339.58 --> 4340.46] I think it's going to go like this. +[4340.46 --> 4341.40] Like this is a hundred percent. +[4341.40 --> 4342.56] It's like, okay, word processing. +[4342.80 --> 4343.78] You're good watching a movie. +[4344.16 --> 4345.12] You're good playing a game. +[4345.18 --> 4346.00] It's just going to bounce. +[4346.42 --> 4348.32] But this does have NVIDIA's new thing. +[4348.50 --> 4348.68] Yeah. +[4348.74 --> 4349.66] And we saw that work. +[4349.80 --> 4350.70] It does have Optimus. +[4351.02 --> 4354.90] So that means that like his laptop that he's been using for the entire show, which is a +[4354.90 --> 4358.82] couple hours now, is sitting at a 67% battery. +[4358.98 --> 4359.56] So when you're not. +[4359.68 --> 4360.38] It wasn't necessarily a hundred percent. +[4360.94 --> 4361.84] Oh, that's right. +[4361.90 --> 4363.20] That was the one that wasn't plugged in, isn't it? +[4363.30 --> 4363.48] Okay. +[4363.60 --> 4369.88] So, so the, so when you're not gaming out flat out, not that bad, but the crazy thing. +[4369.88 --> 4370.08] Okay. +[4370.16 --> 4373.24] So it has a full GK104 core in there. +[4373.44 --> 4375.04] No disabled CUDA cores. +[4375.44 --> 4381.50] It has, it's clocked about 20% higher than the last gen 7 ADM or whatever it was. +[4381.50 --> 4383.44] So it's actually clocked at about one gigahertz. +[4383.44 --> 4385.76] We played around with overclocking a little bit. +[4385.86 --> 4391.82] You can overclock it using standard overclocking tools and get this, even though the CPU, so +[4391.82 --> 4397.28] it's a 4700 HQ, I think it is versus like a 4770 K. +[4397.40 --> 4402.06] And if you look at Intel's, um, if you go on arc, you can find out that those two CPUs +[4402.06 --> 4403.10] cost exactly the same. +[4403.10 --> 4407.00] So the clock speed of that CPU is a good, like 20, 30% slower. +[4407.24 --> 4407.36] Wow. +[4407.48 --> 4409.78] But our review of this is coming out tonight. +[4410.40 --> 4416.94] Luke benchmarked it against a comparably priced desktop featuring a GTX 770 and a 4770 K. +[4417.16 --> 4418.20] And it was what? +[4418.30 --> 4421.96] Like 60, 70, 80% of the speed, depending on the game. +[4422.20 --> 4422.30] Yeah. +[4422.42 --> 4426.48] And like, you have to, you have to realize that we also hit the same spec as the laptop. +[4426.66 --> 4426.80] Yeah. +[4426.84 --> 4429.32] It's like we had a Thunderbolt motherboard and we had a Blu-ray. +[4429.36 --> 4429.62] Wow. +[4429.62 --> 4431.24] We went to be feature complete. +[4431.38 --> 4434.12] We wanted to be feature competitive with the laptop. +[4434.62 --> 4436.08] What's the res on the screen on that thing? +[4436.24 --> 4436.78] It's 1080. +[4437.60 --> 4438.64] So 1080, God. +[4438.78 --> 4442.00] So that would probably run, geez, that would probably run like Battlefield 4 on Ultra, like +[4442.00 --> 4442.54] no sweat. +[4442.72 --> 4442.92] Yeah. +[4443.56 --> 4444.28] That's insane. +[4444.76 --> 4445.24] For a laptop? +[4445.90 --> 4451.80] So the theme of the review is not, you know, is this the lightest, most portable thing in +[4451.80 --> 4452.14] the world? +[4452.52 --> 4453.24] No, it's not. +[4453.78 --> 4459.60] But the theme of the review is, is there room in the world for a laptop that exists between +[4459.60 --> 4464.92] the bulk of a desktop and the slimness of something like a thin and light gaming notebook +[4464.92 --> 4471.22] when the price to performance compared to a desktop is actually not that far off. +[4471.32 --> 4475.62] So our laptop ended up costing, I think, a couple hundred more to have feature completeness. +[4475.72 --> 4481.92] So for things like the desktop, we got a webcam, just a $20 webcam because a laptop has a webcam. +[4481.92 --> 4484.28] It's part of the overall computing experience. +[4484.46 --> 4488.24] We grabbed a decent keyboard with a backlight because it's got a decent backlit keyboard on +[4488.24 --> 4488.34] it. +[4488.34 --> 4491.72] So we did all those things and it was about a couple hundred bucks out and I think it was +[4491.72 --> 4493.48] around 70 to 80 percent of the performance. +[4493.84 --> 4496.18] So very interesting. +[4496.88 --> 4496.98] No. +[4497.10 --> 4500.64] And the thing is with me is like, and this is the other thing is some people like, especially +[4500.64 --> 4505.38] like women, I would find like my wife, they like having compact, small things fit in their +[4505.38 --> 4505.92] purse carry around. +[4505.98 --> 4508.90] Like my wife, she has a, she actually has a MacBook Air and she loves it. +[4508.92 --> 4509.62] She absolutely loves things. +[4509.66 --> 4510.60] I can't pry it out of her hands. +[4510.60 --> 4517.16] We will have one person watching this show that is like, I am a female and I want a 750 +[4517.16 --> 4517.74] Jay-Z. +[4518.22 --> 4518.50] Yeah. +[4518.60 --> 4522.62] And that's fine because this show is powered by the Asus, the G750 Jay-Z. +[4522.76 --> 4523.56] So go for it. +[4523.82 --> 4525.48] But anyway, sorry, Jerry, go ahead. +[4525.70 --> 4530.44] I would rather have a large desktop replacement class laptop because weight's not an issue with +[4530.44 --> 4530.48] me. +[4530.50 --> 4531.32] I'm 280 pounds. +[4531.38 --> 4531.76] I don't care. +[4531.82 --> 4533.34] I'll carry around a freaking desktop on my back. +[4533.38 --> 4533.74] I don't care. +[4533.82 --> 4537.26] But I used to have this laptop, my favorite laptop ever of all time. +[4537.26 --> 4538.60] It was a Dell XPS. +[4538.72 --> 4540.80] You remember those godly old laptops? +[4540.92 --> 4542.44] They had 17 inch screens on them. +[4542.50 --> 4543.92] They weighed like 20 pounds. +[4544.22 --> 4545.06] They were like this thick. +[4545.68 --> 4545.82] Yeah. +[4546.02 --> 4550.52] I had one of those and it had the most amazing specs for the time. +[4550.60 --> 4556.74] And I remember I gamed, oh, and it had a, it had a 19, what is it, 1920 by, or 1900 by +[4556.74 --> 4557.40] 1200 screen. +[4557.48 --> 4560.22] So the old, you know, was it 9 by 10 aspect of it. +[4560.58 --> 4562.00] 9 or 16 by 10. +[4562.08 --> 4562.20] Yeah. +[4562.20 --> 4562.54] Yeah. +[4562.64 --> 4567.20] The thing played everything, absolutely everything for like two years on max settings. +[4567.26 --> 4569.64] After I got it, it was a work, I didn't, I didn't buy a work, work, God, I think it +[4569.64 --> 4573.00] was like five grand or something for that thing, but still for it to have a laptop that +[4573.00 --> 4575.30] for two years had specs that just blew. +[4575.40 --> 4577.32] I mean, it blew my desktop dev machine away. +[4577.58 --> 4577.66] Everything. +[4577.76 --> 4579.14] I used it for absolutely everything. +[4579.20 --> 4582.22] I even had a dock so that you could just plug the damn thing in and have it on all your +[4582.22 --> 4582.50] laptops. +[4582.62 --> 4583.30] I like that. +[4583.34 --> 4586.22] I think that that's the, that's the experience I'd like to move towards. +[4586.22 --> 4590.10] Like I think ASUS is kind of headed in that right direction where if you have a laptop +[4590.10 --> 4594.54] that can produce the same graphical horsepower as a desktop and it can support multiple +[4594.54 --> 4599.26] monitors through a dock and connect all your peripherals, I would rather just take that +[4599.26 --> 4602.64] with me everywhere, come home, slap it down on my dock and have that all available to me. +[4603.00 --> 4605.70] And there's, there is a market for that. +[4605.88 --> 4610.92] And so that was, that was the, that was the journey that we were going on because you talk +[4610.92 --> 4615.40] about how that one cost you five grand or cost Microsoft five grand or someone paid five +[4615.40 --> 4615.90] grand for it. +[4615.90 --> 4616.08] Right. +[4616.18 --> 4616.42] Yeah. +[4616.42 --> 4622.08] Whereas this one's 2200, which to me is a lot more reasonable and a lot closer when +[4622.08 --> 4625.26] you consider the fact that it comes with a monitor and it comes with keyboard and all +[4625.26 --> 4629.34] that kind of stuff is a lot closer to what I would expect an enthusiast to pay for a gaming +[4629.34 --> 4629.68] machine. +[4630.12 --> 4630.52] Yeah. +[4630.56 --> 4634.06] I'd say there's probably what, about a $500 Delta there between building something comparable +[4634.06 --> 4634.70] on the desktop. +[4635.06 --> 4636.88] Um, about 200. +[4637.40 --> 4637.76] Really? +[4638.00 --> 4638.32] Wow. +[4638.52 --> 4638.70] Okay. +[4638.82 --> 4641.72] If you make yourself, you know, cause it has Thunderbolt and stuff. +[4641.86 --> 4645.28] Like, so if you buy a, and a Blu-ray drive, like if you make yourself buy all the +[4645.28 --> 4650.18] same features and you can agree or disagree with this particular config, but it's available +[4650.18 --> 4654.54] in a variety of configs with, you know, 16 gigs, 24 gigs, 32 gigs of Ram, however much +[4654.54 --> 4654.90] you need. +[4655.02 --> 4658.82] So whether you agree with this particular config or not, if you want to build the same thing +[4658.82 --> 4661.92] as a desktop, we came around $200 short on the desktop. +[4662.06 --> 4662.18] Wow. +[4662.46 --> 4662.64] Wow. +[4662.64 --> 4664.46] Is it an SSD in that too, standard equipment? +[4664.78 --> 4668.52] Uh, two SSDs, two 128s and a one terabyte hard drive. +[4669.20 --> 4671.26] Dude, that is, that is, whoa, whoa. +[4671.36 --> 4673.88] Two SSDs and a one terabyte physical drive? +[4673.94 --> 4674.08] Yeah. +[4674.08 --> 4676.00] So they're M.2 SSDs. +[4676.06 --> 4677.62] So there's no bottleneck there. +[4677.70 --> 4680.42] And then it's also got a, and it's fully upgradable. +[4680.42 --> 4685.68] So you can just, um, you take out one screw and it's a nice little retained screw. +[4685.80 --> 4689.74] And then you can access both of the SSD slots as well as the hard drive slot. +[4689.74 --> 4692.24] And then two of the memory slots very, very easily. +[4692.24 --> 4692.66] Yeah. +[4692.70 --> 4695.80] I was kind of making my Surface RT here feel a little underpowered and adequate. +[4698.12 --> 4698.88] Super thin. +[4698.98 --> 4704.00] Well, for what it's worth, as much larger, uh, as my laptop is than yours. +[4704.08 --> 4705.98] You are that much larger than me. +[4706.24 --> 4706.66] That's true. +[4706.76 --> 4707.32] That's true. +[4707.42 --> 4709.58] And my computer system is that much larger too. +[4709.70 --> 4709.90] Right. +[4710.02 --> 4710.26] So. +[4711.00 --> 4711.30] Wow. +[4711.46 --> 4711.66] Wow. +[4711.74 --> 4712.72] So now, okay. +[4713.04 --> 4717.82] Well, um, my, um, helicopter is larger than yours. +[4718.40 --> 4719.46] Oh, don't you mean your Lamborghini? +[4719.98 --> 4720.36] Yeah. +[4720.36 --> 4721.02] My Lambo. +[4721.34 --> 4722.62] Lambos aren't about the size. +[4722.62 --> 4723.16] My friend. +[4723.36 --> 4724.74] Lambos are not about the size. +[4724.84 --> 4725.78] They're about the speed. +[4726.32 --> 4726.62] You know what? +[4726.74 --> 4726.98] Everyone knows. +[4727.12 --> 4728.90] Faster is much more satisfying. +[4729.24 --> 4730.88] I'm going to own a Lambo one day. +[4731.02 --> 4735.38] Now, if you open the door, the inside's going to say Pontiac Fiero, but it on the outside, +[4735.50 --> 4736.20] all Lambo. +[4736.76 --> 4737.34] It's going to be awesome. +[4737.60 --> 4737.86] All right. +[4737.86 --> 4740.22] We should do some actual topics for a sec here. +[4740.38 --> 4744.82] So, uh, this was probably one of the funniest posts that I have ever seen on the Linus Tech +[4744.82 --> 4747.12] Tips Forum by BrownNinja97. +[4747.84 --> 4751.06] Um, basically he's like, okay, you have to put on this music. +[4751.36 --> 4753.58] You have to put on this music while you read it. +[4753.70 --> 4754.36] Dramatic music. +[4754.36 --> 4760.78] And give it up for the GT705, GT710, and GT720. +[4761.32 --> 4764.32] So, the, uh, the kings of rebadging. +[4764.54 --> 4769.58] The, uh, the, um, you know, GPU makers of the world. +[4770.10 --> 4777.18] First up, the GT720 is a rebadge of the GT610, which was a rebadge of the GT520. +[4777.64 --> 4781.50] So, 48-hole CUDA cores with a 64-bit memory bus. +[4781.50 --> 4786.70] The GT710 is not a rebadge of the, uh, GT620. +[4787.48 --> 4789.70] It's a rebadge of the GT630. +[4790.24 --> 4792.10] It's actually a cut-down GT630. +[4792.10 --> 4793.40] A rose by any other name? +[4794.06 --> 4802.16] And then finally, the, uh, the new flagship mascot is the GT720, which, uh, is the same +[4802.16 --> 4803.68] as the above card, but superior. +[4803.96 --> 4808.30] Instead of being a half-rebrand, so a cut-down rebrand, it is a full-rebrand. +[4809.02 --> 4810.18] Uh, ooh. +[4810.18 --> 4811.80] This is an awesome post. +[4812.08 --> 4813.02] Have you not read this? +[4813.02 --> 4814.06] I had not read this. +[4814.14 --> 4815.20] Oh my goodness, it's amazing. +[4815.20 --> 4815.98] This is really well done. +[4816.14 --> 4819.62] So, is NVIDIA just employing, like, some guy that just sits back there with some sandpaper +[4819.62 --> 4822.42] and just takes the top off and then gets out his little calligraphy pen and is like, +[4822.50 --> 4826.16] eh, this is GK208-? +[4826.50 --> 4828.12] I see their point. +[4828.12 --> 4831.86] I see why they're not even bothering in the low end. +[4831.86 --> 4839.18] Because, quite frankly, I think that under something like a 60-class card on the NVIDIA side, +[4839.30 --> 4846.80] so an X60, uh, or even an X, you know, 50, where they're actually using the same GPU as +[4846.80 --> 4852.58] the 60-class card, which is, well, last generation anyway, was using the same GPU as the, as the +[4852.58 --> 4853.70] 70-class card. +[4853.70 --> 4862.28] I think that they don't get a compelling enough cost savings under that die size to even make +[4862.28 --> 4863.18] the thing competitive. +[4863.46 --> 4868.62] So, they're just, they're delivering these cards to market because mainstream people at Best Buy +[4868.62 --> 4869.54] buy them. +[4869.54 --> 4875.36] And if NVIDIA doesn't make this card, then AMD will, and someone has to sell a graphics card to that person. +[4875.64 --> 4878.16] But I think they've just given up. +[4880.30 --> 4881.40] Oh, that's funny. +[4881.84 --> 4882.90] I mean, it's not wrong. +[4883.08 --> 4884.46] We've had this talk before, though. +[4884.64 --> 4885.92] This, like, exact same thing. +[4886.00 --> 4887.74] This is just more direct. +[4888.40 --> 4891.02] It was like, yeah, there's some stuff, whatever. +[4891.36 --> 4896.56] Like, I mean, we, I did a video a little while back where I basically, maybe this is why AMD +[4896.56 --> 4899.22] didn't send me an R9 295 X2. +[4899.76 --> 4901.10] No, I don't think that's it. +[4901.16 --> 4902.22] They're actually sending one now. +[4902.88 --> 4906.58] So, we have Austin's, and they just confirmed that they found one for us. +[4906.74 --> 4907.40] So, I'm like, okay. +[4908.08 --> 4910.90] Oh, yeah, you're going to send it to me afterwards, right, for my bitcoining rig? +[4911.02 --> 4911.22] Come on. +[4911.22 --> 4911.76] Oh, absolutely. +[4912.08 --> 4912.74] Awesome, awesome. +[4912.90 --> 4913.06] Yeah. +[4913.68 --> 4920.14] So, anyway, so, we did a video a little while ago about how the R7 240 is stupid and nobody +[4920.14 --> 4920.88] should buy it. +[4920.88 --> 4926.82] And we actually, in spite of us presenting these facts, this is how it performs. +[4927.00 --> 4927.96] This is what it does. +[4927.96 --> 4930.08] And this is how much it costs. +[4930.28 --> 4933.66] This card makes no sense and nobody on earth should buy it. +[4933.82 --> 4939.16] We actually had people disliking the video and justifying it in the video comments and +[4939.16 --> 4941.52] telling me that I was wrong and close-minded. +[4941.52 --> 4946.58] And I'm just sitting here going, okay, then you guys can keep buying GT 720s for all I +[4946.58 --> 4948.54] care because there's nothing I can do for you. +[4948.86 --> 4950.88] Dude, some people are just all about the branding. +[4951.42 --> 4956.12] Did we give an exact price per performance comparison of an AMD card that was better? +[4956.12 --> 4962.04] But I had people saying, but I had people saying, look, these are for like upgrading machines +[4962.04 --> 4962.62] and offices. +[4962.90 --> 4972.88] To which I would reply, well, no, HD 5450s, which are like $13 are for upgrading machines +[4972.88 --> 4973.52] and offices. +[4973.90 --> 4979.70] So there's the cheap card and then there's the card that has performance and then there's +[4979.70 --> 4983.28] this weird thing that's expensive and doesn't have performance and it just shouldn't exist. +[4983.28 --> 4984.58] But people don't get it. +[4985.70 --> 4990.44] Rebranding pisses me off because I've actually bought the same thing twice because of it +[4990.44 --> 4990.72] before. +[4991.14 --> 4991.94] Did you really? +[4992.54 --> 4993.68] You got to tell the story. +[4993.90 --> 4997.88] I'm going to tell the story and it's software, not hardware, software. +[4998.06 --> 4998.86] I just want to be clear on that. +[4998.90 --> 5002.50] On hardware, I'd probably do a little bit more due diligence, but there's a game called +[5002.50 --> 5004.26] The War Z. +[5004.50 --> 5005.12] Oh, no. +[5005.68 --> 5008.54] Biggest piece of shit ever made in the history of anything. +[5009.16 --> 5009.52] Anything. +[5009.70 --> 5010.02] Horrible. +[5010.02 --> 5010.46] Horrible. +[5010.54 --> 5014.22] Now, this game, I mean, massive uprising against it, right? +[5014.24 --> 5016.96] If you guys know the stories behind it, like the communities rose up against it. +[5017.00 --> 5019.50] It was a big, huge, you know, pay to win game. +[5019.88 --> 5020.88] Anyways, I bought it. +[5020.92 --> 5021.40] I was pissed. +[5021.50 --> 5022.08] I sent them money. +[5022.14 --> 5023.10] I said, give me my refund. +[5023.22 --> 5023.92] This is horrible. +[5024.34 --> 5027.10] They finally refunded my money and no kidding on a Steam sale. +[5027.22 --> 5031.30] A couple of weeks later, a new game pops up called Infestation Survivor Stories. +[5031.82 --> 5033.78] And I'm like, that looks cool. +[5033.96 --> 5034.72] So I buy it. +[5034.84 --> 5035.78] I open the game up. +[5036.10 --> 5036.78] Guess what it was? +[5037.50 --> 5038.32] The War Z. +[5038.68 --> 5040.26] All the graphics, exactly the same. +[5040.36 --> 5041.38] Everything exactly the same. +[5041.50 --> 5043.14] Settings, music, everything the same. +[5043.22 --> 5047.52] All they did was just change one graphic in the game from The War Z to freaking Infestation Survivor Stories. +[5047.80 --> 5051.84] So then I go out on the forum and I find out that, oh, no, they had to change the name for some reason. +[5052.52 --> 5053.64] They just renamed the game. +[5054.28 --> 5055.78] I wasn't the only one that got hit by this. +[5055.86 --> 5057.84] Like, because it was in one of those humble bundles. +[5057.92 --> 5059.88] I was like, I'm going to, God, of course I want it. +[5060.34 --> 5061.62] And that's what I bought it for. +[5061.62 --> 5063.20] And then I opened it and I just facepalmed. +[5063.30 --> 5064.56] I was like, did I just really do that? +[5064.86 --> 5065.46] Oh, my God. +[5065.46 --> 5068.30] But I was happy to know that I wasn't alone, that other people were doing it, too. +[5068.34 --> 5072.80] But it just it pisses me off because it's like, no, you created it as that product. +[5072.88 --> 5073.84] It needs to stay that product. +[5073.90 --> 5074.34] I'm sorry. +[5074.82 --> 5077.18] That was actually that was a big deal when they renamed themselves. +[5077.26 --> 5078.36] A lot of people bought it. +[5078.66 --> 5079.18] Oh, my God. +[5079.18 --> 5080.50] That was actually like a big problem. +[5081.14 --> 5083.78] And that was the thing is it wasn't available on Steam before that, too. +[5083.84 --> 5085.20] So it was like a new game to Steam. +[5085.30 --> 5086.26] It was a completely new name. +[5086.30 --> 5093.16] You could tell that they I mean, they should have got the crap suit out of them for that because it was obvious that they were just trying to deceive the public. +[5093.16 --> 5095.44] And I was just like and I fell for it. +[5095.50 --> 5096.36] I felt like an idiot. +[5096.68 --> 5099.70] And I still do because it's still sitting over here in my freaking Steam folder. +[5100.88 --> 5101.94] And so I found the name. +[5101.98 --> 5102.70] It's not even installed. +[5102.80 --> 5107.12] I didn't even bother downloading it because it's not it's not even worth the freaking gigabyte. +[5107.22 --> 5109.50] It'll probably occupy my my precious SSD. +[5110.04 --> 5110.26] Yeah. +[5110.74 --> 5111.62] Oh, horrible. +[5111.74 --> 5112.96] So, yeah, I hate rebranding. +[5113.02 --> 5114.58] And then and then from the Microsoft side. +[5114.58 --> 5118.42] So I don't so I don't look like I'm just playing devil's advocate here to everything that is a Microsoft. +[5118.68 --> 5120.42] You know, we had to rename SkyDrive to OneDrive. +[5120.84 --> 5124.74] We actually had to rename it like it was it was a it was a legal battle that we lost. +[5124.74 --> 5131.14] But still, it sucks because I get all this influx of mail from my family and everything going, oh, man, should I upgrade to OneDrive? +[5131.44 --> 5132.34] I got SkyDrive. +[5132.54 --> 5134.16] Hey, is this OneDrive thing better? +[5134.26 --> 5138.50] I'm like, no, no, just just download the update. +[5138.58 --> 5139.66] It's the same thing. +[5140.14 --> 5141.40] It's a changed graphic. +[5141.40 --> 5142.90] But it's just that's how marketing works. +[5142.94 --> 5143.74] People see something new. +[5143.80 --> 5146.46] They genuinely believe it's something new and it's something better. +[5146.62 --> 5146.72] Right. +[5147.02 --> 5150.00] Like that's the initial, you know, benefit of the doubt that you give to the product. +[5150.08 --> 5152.98] I'm like, oh, my God, there should just be there should be freaking laws against that. +[5153.46 --> 5160.06] Speaking of something new and something legitimately different, Quan, like I am so glad this is finally happening. +[5160.14 --> 5161.34] You can leave anytime if you want. +[5161.54 --> 5162.02] I don't want to. +[5162.56 --> 5163.40] Not not you. +[5163.56 --> 5167.58] I don't even know if I can because I don't have a phone. +[5167.82 --> 5169.86] So orchestrating these things is hard. +[5169.86 --> 5171.32] No, Luke doesn't. +[5171.32 --> 5172.16] So I'll sit here and try to figure it out. +[5172.24 --> 5172.44] Okay. +[5172.88 --> 5179.00] So Quantana, I'm glad this is finally happening where Wi-Fi is finally going somewhere because +[5179.00 --> 5184.50] for the longest time I was sitting here going, okay, so like my mobile data connection is +[5184.50 --> 5187.04] like getting awesomer by the generation. +[5187.46 --> 5187.60] Yeah. +[5187.60 --> 5191.72] And like Wi-Fi, okay, so we went from we went from what? +[5191.84 --> 5194.96] Like wireless A to B, which was like slower. +[5195.52 --> 5195.68] Yeah. +[5195.72 --> 5200.12] And then we went to wireless G, which just got us back to like wireless A speeds again, +[5200.12 --> 5201.50] but like better range. +[5201.70 --> 5204.92] And then we stuck with G for 100 billion years. +[5205.02 --> 5205.50] That's true. +[5205.60 --> 5205.98] That's true. +[5206.20 --> 5208.58] And then when N came out, it wasn't even N. +[5208.66 --> 5210.82] It was like what they call it. +[5210.82 --> 5211.00] Draft N. +[5211.50 --> 5212.12] Draft N. +[5212.22 --> 5212.32] Yeah. +[5212.32 --> 5213.28] It was Draft N. +[5213.48 --> 5213.66] Yeah. +[5213.90 --> 5216.34] And it wasn't really faster yet. +[5217.02 --> 5217.14] No. +[5217.14 --> 5223.54] And then finally we got like, we got like Mimo concurrent N and then that like got faster. +[5223.78 --> 5229.86] And then, and then those routers were so expensive that everyone started costing down and doing +[5229.86 --> 5234.06] like 150 megabit N that wasn't even really that much faster. +[5234.26 --> 5238.12] And then finally things are starting to heat up a little bit. +[5238.12 --> 5244.82] We got AC, which can do real world throughput if you're using a bridge of like 500, 600 megabit. +[5244.82 --> 5251.80] And then now Quantana is announcing development of a 10G 802.11 AC chipset. +[5251.88 --> 5259.50] So this will support eight stream configurations versus three stream previously up to 160 megahertz +[5259.50 --> 5263.12] channels up from 80 megahertz and multi-user Mimo. +[5263.12 --> 5269.60] So we could be looking at some serious performance versus Broadcom's 5G. +[5269.86 --> 5273.32] Just don't stand within 10 foot of it or you will go sterile. +[5273.44 --> 5274.18] Just saying. +[5274.78 --> 5275.28] That's okay. +[5275.32 --> 5276.42] I've already procreated. +[5276.84 --> 5277.94] I don't want to. +[5278.04 --> 5279.66] So we can definitely get one of these in the office. +[5279.82 --> 5280.06] Yeah. +[5280.14 --> 5281.80] I did too. +[5281.88 --> 5282.54] I'm going to order two. +[5282.70 --> 5283.02] No, just kidding. +[5285.06 --> 5288.42] So I think that's pretty much all I have to say about that, especially because we don't +[5288.42 --> 5290.92] have much time left here, but I think that's fantastic. +[5290.92 --> 5294.94] I think that we're a long way away from even being able to leverage something like 10G wireless. +[5295.12 --> 5299.46] I mean, you know, you talk about NAND capacities and how they've stagnated in devices. +[5299.46 --> 5303.82] Let's talk about how NAND speeds haven't really changed much over the last few years because +[5303.82 --> 5309.72] each process node shrink actually causes NAND performance to get worse without fancy controller +[5309.72 --> 5310.12] tricks. +[5310.72 --> 5315.18] And don't forget all the basically frequency pollution now that's going on. +[5315.18 --> 5319.32] I mean, I have literally 50 plus networks within the vicinity of my house. +[5319.40 --> 5321.16] It's cascaded across all the channels. +[5321.30 --> 5323.38] Like I, that's one of the things I like using my Nexus for. +[5323.48 --> 5324.76] I opened up and I use that, uh, what is it? +[5324.80 --> 5327.64] Wi-Fi monitor and Wi-Fi monitor basically. +[5327.64 --> 5329.54] It's just like a million lines. +[5329.56 --> 5333.82] It basically looks like global thermal nuclear war going on across all of the frequencies +[5333.82 --> 5335.28] and all of the bands. +[5335.28 --> 5339.28] I swear, no matter what I do with two access points and three repeaters in my house, I still +[5339.28 --> 5341.88] have dead spots just because everything's occupied. +[5341.88 --> 5344.68] Someone needs to make the Wi-Fi fighting game. +[5345.20 --> 5345.56] Yes. +[5345.76 --> 5346.76] Oh, that'd be cool. +[5347.64 --> 5351.10] Where it's like global thermal nuclear war Wi-Fi edition. +[5351.22 --> 5354.42] And like the, the planet is like the range of your Wi-Fi. +[5354.54 --> 5356.34] You have to like fight off other Wi-Fi signals. +[5356.34 --> 5357.26] Dude, that is genius. +[5357.52 --> 5358.16] Like score. +[5358.24 --> 5359.26] Remember the game Scorched Earth? +[5359.70 --> 5360.02] Yeah. +[5360.56 --> 5362.62] Dude, Scorched Earth with Wi-Fi signals. +[5362.62 --> 5365.92] Like everybody sets up their access points and you literally put it up on the screen and +[5365.92 --> 5368.76] then you go move your access points around to try to attack the router. +[5369.92 --> 5370.32] Awesome. +[5370.58 --> 5371.26] Somebody do that. +[5371.38 --> 5371.74] Kickstarter. +[5372.16 --> 5373.60] Kickstart that project and I'll throw you in. +[5373.68 --> 5373.84] Yeah. +[5373.90 --> 5377.20] Someone will kickstart it for like 5,000 bucks and it'll be funded by like 10 quibillion +[5377.20 --> 5378.04] percent and then never be. +[5378.04 --> 5381.44] Dude, you'll make, yeah, you'll make $50 billion and you only have to create a real product +[5381.44 --> 5382.84] since most Kickstarters don't anyways. +[5383.08 --> 5383.26] Yeah. +[5383.52 --> 5384.06] Sell the Facebook. +[5386.26 --> 5387.66] Why am I even on this show? +[5389.32 --> 5390.74] Why do we want to talk to people? +[5391.28 --> 5391.82] Why fighter? +[5392.76 --> 5393.02] Why? +[5393.10 --> 5393.58] I like it. +[5393.58 --> 5393.78] Why? +[5394.50 --> 5395.86] I can't come up with something better. +[5395.96 --> 5396.50] Why fighter? +[5397.12 --> 5397.84] I love it. +[5397.84 --> 5398.06] Okay. +[5398.16 --> 5398.92] Next topic. +[5398.92 --> 5402.52] Amazon's smartphone revealed in leaked photos. +[5402.64 --> 5408.52] So the big news here, original article from BGR posted by Deguzi on the forum. +[5408.80 --> 5413.72] So the big news here is that Amazon has put, is it four or five? +[5413.72 --> 5416.36] I think they put five cameras on the front of it. +[5416.44 --> 5416.68] Six? +[5416.88 --> 5417.68] Oh, on the front? +[5417.82 --> 5418.00] Yeah. +[5418.14 --> 5418.72] Five on the front. +[5418.76 --> 5418.90] Yeah. +[5419.08 --> 5421.06] Five cameras on the front of this thing. +[5421.36 --> 5428.28] And basically the objective here that they're trying to objectify, achieve, I suppose would +[5428.28 --> 5429.16] be a better word for that. +[5429.24 --> 5430.88] The objective they're trying to objectify. +[5430.88 --> 5439.42] The objective here is to make it 3D looking without needing the same kind of screen element +[5439.42 --> 5442.26] that they have in front of the DS without needing active shutter glasses. +[5442.86 --> 5446.32] So the way it'll work is the cameras are actually going to track your eye movement so +[5446.32 --> 5452.26] they can create 3D elements in things like the wallpapers, app icons, things like product +[5452.26 --> 5453.26] photos. +[5453.26 --> 5457.58] So while you're shopping, you can, you can kind of look around the side of things like +[5457.58 --> 5459.10] kind of like a parallax effect. +[5460.94 --> 5465.08] Would this sell you a new phone, Jerry, or you for that? +[5465.08 --> 5465.36] Yes. +[5465.60 --> 5465.94] Okay. +[5466.04 --> 5466.98] If it was done properly. +[5467.10 --> 5467.40] Yes. +[5467.42 --> 5468.12] And I'll tell you why. +[5468.32 --> 5468.68] Really? +[5469.36 --> 5469.72] Yes. +[5469.90 --> 5470.28] Hold this. +[5470.74 --> 5472.24] God, just calm your, what'd you say? +[5472.30 --> 5473.36] Calm your, what? +[5473.46 --> 5473.74] Mammery? +[5473.96 --> 5474.00] Really? +[5474.18 --> 5474.72] Just can't say that. +[5474.98 --> 5475.30] Really? +[5475.58 --> 5475.86] Really? +[5476.48 --> 5477.54] Calm them, Canadia. +[5477.70 --> 5478.02] Hold on. +[5478.16 --> 5478.78] I'll tell you why. +[5479.14 --> 5479.88] I'll tell you why. +[5480.10 --> 5483.24] Because if they do it properly and it tracks my eyes, it's like looking through. +[5483.26 --> 5488.08] So you get that perceived larger, larger volume of screen. +[5488.14 --> 5489.16] You get it closer to your face. +[5489.26 --> 5491.42] You get more of an angle outwards. +[5491.54 --> 5496.18] I tested some technology like this a couple of years ago where they put a magnet on your +[5496.18 --> 5496.42] head. +[5496.86 --> 5499.76] And this was, this was a secret research project. +[5499.90 --> 5500.38] Never went anywhere. +[5500.46 --> 5504.62] But anyways, I had a magnet on it and you moved your head around and the camera in the +[5504.62 --> 5507.26] sensor, track the magnet and changed the screen. +[5507.26 --> 5509.94] But it was cool because you were looking at a screen that was only about, I think it was +[5509.94 --> 5511.54] like a 20 little 20 inch screen. +[5511.88 --> 5516.48] And you could get closer to it and like look out and it tricked your brain into thinking, +[5516.62 --> 5517.62] I mean, like you were looking out a window. +[5517.72 --> 5520.38] It looked like you could see this huge, amazing area. +[5520.50 --> 5524.22] So if you zoomed in on a photo or something like that, you could easily just tilt the phone +[5524.22 --> 5526.16] and look around and get it closer and everything like that. +[5526.18 --> 5529.74] And it'd be a really natural experience for looking at very large, high detailed photography. +[5530.08 --> 5530.80] I think it's cool. +[5530.92 --> 5531.46] I'd like it. +[5531.46 --> 5535.48] If it works anywhere near half decently, have you seen eye tracking that doesn't suck +[5535.48 --> 5535.64] yet? +[5536.04 --> 5537.22] Yeah, no, it's not going to work. +[5537.30 --> 5537.72] We already know. +[5537.78 --> 5538.24] We know it won't. +[5538.26 --> 5540.94] It'll be like, you'll turn it and it'll lag and then you'll throw up because it'll screw +[5540.94 --> 5541.72] with your brain wrong. +[5542.08 --> 5547.34] And the, the, the Toby video that we tried to film at CES and were successful, but it +[5547.34 --> 5550.82] took very many attempts because of how not working it was. +[5550.82 --> 5554.98] Um, and like every eye tracking technology I've ever seen not working. +[5554.98 --> 5558.76] And I fully expect this to come out and people are using their phones and they're just trying +[5558.76 --> 5559.56] to use their phones normally. +[5559.68 --> 5562.58] And then all of a sudden it's just going to start tilting like crazy because it's going +[5562.58 --> 5565.16] to start tracking on like your cat who's clawing on your shoulder. +[5565.18 --> 5568.56] Well, the problem was the only reason it was even remotely believable in the, in the one +[5568.56 --> 5572.40] that I tested was because they use this magnet because the reason why they use the magnet +[5572.40 --> 5574.58] was because there was the least amount of lag between it. +[5574.68 --> 5576.74] It was tracking a magnetic field basically. +[5577.08 --> 5577.20] Right. +[5577.46 --> 5580.72] And so it worked very, very fast and very fluid, but you had to be within like, +[5580.82 --> 5584.08] 10 inches of the receiver for it to work properly. +[5584.30 --> 5587.84] So when you're dealing with cameras, it's like, I don't care how fast the CPU is. +[5587.90 --> 5591.54] We're a long way off from having zero leg when you have to do image processing to figure +[5591.54 --> 5596.44] out where so far away and combine that with the fact that the image is going to be completely +[5596.44 --> 5602.96] rubbish because I mean, you look, okay, you look at, you look at how hard it is, how much +[5602.96 --> 5610.80] work it takes, how much, how much focusing on this and, you know, uh, exposure that on an 8,000 +[5610.80 --> 5615.52] piece of equipment, like what we have to get a good image out of that, that would actually +[5615.52 --> 5620.58] allow even a person to, to, to look at the eyes and go, yeah, that's exactly where they're +[5620.58 --> 5620.86] looking. +[5621.74 --> 5625.32] Now your CPU has to figure that out with like a webcam. +[5625.46 --> 5629.58] I'm honestly wondering if it's more going to be just like physical head position because +[5629.58 --> 5634.22] they say eye tracking, but what they're talking about seems more like if your head was over +[5634.22 --> 5637.32] here, you're probably looking in that general direction. +[5637.32 --> 5639.34] And that's going to throw me for a loop anyway. +[5639.82 --> 5641.86] No, I don't think it's going to be very good. +[5641.86 --> 5646.18] And, uh, yeah, honestly, I just, I think it's, I would fully expect it to be more head +[5646.18 --> 5650.62] position than anything because they're talking about tilting icons and they're talking about +[5650.62 --> 5654.22] other stuff, which isn't super like I'm looking at the top of the screen or I'm looking at +[5654.22 --> 5657.16] the bottom of the screen because you're probably going to want it flat there no matter what. +[5657.24 --> 5661.24] So it's, I think it's honestly more, my head is over here and the phone is still here. +[5661.48 --> 5663.54] So it's going to be slanted towards me this way. +[5663.54 --> 5665.88] And look at current tracking technology, right? +[5665.90 --> 5668.50] When you got things like connect and stuff like that, where they're having to use multiple +[5668.50 --> 5672.56] things like infrared and, uh, you know, uh, basically a project, you know, infrared +[5672.56 --> 5674.78] projection to be able to track your distance from the device. +[5674.96 --> 5678.90] It just, it doesn't seem like an image contains enough information without a hell of a lot +[5678.90 --> 5683.64] of heuristics, which that, you know, translates into more CPU, um, to figure that out. +[5683.64 --> 5685.22] And it's never going to be a hundred percent. +[5685.42 --> 5688.40] And I think that would wig me out if I was looking at something that it just, you know, it +[5688.40 --> 5691.56] just screwed up and all of a sudden just started like jittering and flipping around and +[5691.56 --> 5692.58] trying to reorient itself. +[5692.94 --> 5694.72] I just, I don't see it working. +[5694.82 --> 5695.70] I honestly don't. +[5695.86 --> 5699.28] Someone, someone in the chat said tilting icons with a crazy face. +[5699.42 --> 5700.20] Uh, yeah. +[5700.34 --> 5705.76] The main things that they're showing off is like tilting icons on your home screen and +[5705.76 --> 5709.18] perspective of buildings changing when you're in a maps application. +[5709.18 --> 5711.60] And like, we've seen stuff kind of like this. +[5711.60 --> 5716.00] Like you look at like the parallax effects that guys like Apple have on things like desktop +[5716.00 --> 5716.58] wallpapers. +[5716.58 --> 5721.00] So you tilt your phone around and you reveal different parts of the photo and like, I just +[5721.00 --> 5721.44] don't care. +[5721.52 --> 5725.50] I, I have never once enabled that because who cares? +[5725.96 --> 5727.38] It doesn't enhance my life. +[5727.44 --> 5731.48] It's like kind of neat, but if I'm going to get an extra 1% battery by turning it off, +[5731.54 --> 5732.48] then I'll take that instead. +[5732.88 --> 5736.18] Well, I remember when they enabled the parallax on the, on when I got my iPhone five, I was +[5736.18 --> 5737.44] like, Oh man, this is cool. +[5737.44 --> 5739.66] And honestly, I haven't noticed it since I left the store. +[5739.74 --> 5743.12] I mean, it was totally 100% just a gimmick. +[5743.12 --> 5746.86] I mean, it's a magpie feature, you know, if I ever have to sell anything to Jerry, just +[5746.86 --> 5749.16] throw like a parallax and Bluetooth. +[5749.54 --> 5750.38] That's all you need. +[5750.46 --> 5750.68] Just yeah. +[5750.74 --> 5751.58] Parallax Bluetooth. +[5752.00 --> 5756.62] And yeah, if we just, if we sent him a box, okay. +[5756.62 --> 5758.66] Like I wonder, I wonder if you could do this. +[5758.72 --> 5764.08] You know how actually Microsoft's a great example where you, you'll have a box that basically +[5764.08 --> 5768.00] says, if you open this seal, you agree to this contract. +[5768.26 --> 5768.86] This EULA, right? +[5768.86 --> 5769.42] Yep. +[5769.74 --> 5770.02] Okay. +[5770.02 --> 5777.14] What about this as a business model, sending people boxes in the mail where if they break +[5777.14 --> 5780.44] the seal, they agree to pay for whatever's inside it. +[5781.64 --> 5782.12] Interesting. +[5782.24 --> 5783.02] Would it be legally? +[5783.34 --> 5783.52] Wow. +[5783.88 --> 5785.74] Would it be legally enforceable? +[5785.84 --> 5786.20] That should not be okay. +[5786.30 --> 5789.22] I don't think, Oh man, but you can send people junk mail. +[5789.32 --> 5791.32] So you should be able to send people that without asking. +[5791.32 --> 5792.74] So hold on a second. +[5792.88 --> 5802.90] If we sent Jerry a box that just says parallax enabler, um, you know, may contain stuff. +[5803.04 --> 5803.32] Yeah. +[5803.40 --> 5806.40] May contain, may contain Bluetooth. +[5806.76 --> 5807.92] Possible traces of Bluetooth. +[5808.22 --> 5808.36] Yeah. +[5808.48 --> 5808.64] Yeah. +[5808.64 --> 5811.36] By opening this box, you agree to pay a hundred dollars. +[5811.60 --> 5811.86] Entrapment. +[5812.20 --> 5812.32] Yeah. +[5812.54 --> 5815.86] How did I end up being the butt end of a social engineering experience here? +[5815.86 --> 5817.74] Would you open the thing? +[5818.34 --> 5819.02] I would. +[5819.16 --> 5823.30] I dude, I'd have to, I'd have to, and I'd probably have to make a video about it to recoup the +[5823.30 --> 5824.58] money that I paid you for an empty box. +[5824.58 --> 5827.04] And he'd be like, I might've been drunk when I ordered this. +[5827.40 --> 5828.94] Let's open it up and see what it is. +[5828.98 --> 5829.28] Right. +[5829.58 --> 5832.82] And then, and then, so I did, I ordered a bunch of stuff and I forgot what it was. +[5832.86 --> 5832.98] Yeah. +[5832.98 --> 5837.24] The way the business model works is you build enough margin into whatever you're shipping +[5837.24 --> 5839.40] people that, you know what? +[5839.52 --> 5840.22] Essentially nothing. +[5840.58 --> 5841.92] Amazon could do this. +[5842.16 --> 5843.22] Cause you know how they send you. +[5843.34 --> 5843.74] Aren't they planning? +[5843.74 --> 5846.06] Aren't they're, they're planning on preemptive shipment or whatever. +[5846.36 --> 5846.54] Yeah. +[5846.76 --> 5848.26] It goes up at your house and you're going to be like, I don't want it. +[5848.32 --> 5848.74] It goes back. +[5849.24 --> 5850.00] Are they planning that? +[5850.16 --> 5852.36] That was like a, when, when we were talking about the drones. +[5852.50 --> 5852.76] Okay. +[5852.84 --> 5854.18] This was something they were talking about. +[5854.20 --> 5854.50] Okay. +[5854.66 --> 5855.04] Well there. +[5855.10 --> 5855.28] Okay. +[5855.28 --> 5856.90] So this, this goes, so this is. +[5856.98 --> 5858.04] But then that's, you know what it is. +[5858.34 --> 5858.68] No, no. +[5858.78 --> 5861.38] So this is, this is a whole other, this is a whole other thing. +[5861.44 --> 5865.22] This isn't like, like sundries that you're ordering on a regular basis, like toner. +[5865.44 --> 5870.30] This would be like, you know, the, the suggested items when you go on amazon.com, they just +[5870.30 --> 5871.44] start shipping you this stuff. +[5871.44 --> 5874.12] So the outside of the box is just a picture of what's inside. +[5874.20 --> 5875.52] Hey, we thought you might like this. +[5875.76 --> 5875.96] Yeah. +[5876.18 --> 5877.68] If you open it, then you pay for it. +[5877.72 --> 5877.82] Yeah. +[5877.86 --> 5878.62] No, that's the, okay. +[5878.94 --> 5881.32] Oh, that's the, if you accept the shipment or not. +[5881.42 --> 5882.34] Seriously, they're going to do this. +[5882.44 --> 5887.10] They're going to try and predict stuff that you, this was like a, a theoretical possible +[5887.10 --> 5888.12] in the way feature. +[5888.22 --> 5889.60] This is while the drone stuff was going on. +[5889.64 --> 5891.04] This was the Amazon crazy time. +[5891.04 --> 5895.14] Uh, but they were talking about how they're going to try and use their predictive model +[5895.14 --> 5897.92] to guess what you're going to buy and just ship it to you. +[5898.34 --> 5899.00] Well, there you go. +[5899.06 --> 5900.04] That's basically the same thing. +[5900.28 --> 5904.34] If you keep checking something a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, they'll maybe just like send +[5904.34 --> 5906.48] it to you and then it'll show up at the door free shipping. +[5906.48 --> 5910.80] And it'll just be like, well, if you pay the delivery, dude, it's yours. +[5912.48 --> 5913.54] It's kind of interesting. +[5913.88 --> 5914.80] It's a commitment model. +[5914.80 --> 5918.88] I would almost, I don't want to say that I would, I would do it right off the bat, but +[5918.88 --> 5922.16] if they, if they were really good at the prediction, if the prediction was good, not +[5922.16 --> 5924.18] like this crap or Viagra ads keep popping up. +[5924.18 --> 5925.18] It's like, I don't need it guys. +[5925.20 --> 5926.24] Would you stop trying to sell it to me? +[5926.50 --> 5931.62] But, uh, it's if, if they could get it right and they knew what I needed, like, okay, we +[5931.62 --> 5934.50] know that, you know, Jerry goes through 15 rolls of toilet paper a day. +[5934.50 --> 5936.42] So he's going to need new toilet paper every Tuesday. +[5936.82 --> 5937.70] That would be cool. +[5937.74 --> 5941.44] If stuff just showed up and it showed up on a cadence that actually matched how you were consuming +[5941.44 --> 5943.54] and using it and stuff like that would be awesome. +[5943.54 --> 5943.88] Actually. +[5943.88 --> 5946.88] I'd love that if I just came home and it's like, oh man, I'm almost out of milk. +[5946.92 --> 5950.32] And then it's like 15 minutes later, there's a knock on the door and it's there or not a +[5950.32 --> 5952.78] knock so much as a drone honking a horn or something like that. +[5952.84 --> 5953.66] You know, then it drops off. +[5953.74 --> 5955.04] I mean, I think it's cool. +[5955.68 --> 5956.48] I think it's cool. +[5956.56 --> 5959.30] And the drone idea, I think it's cool too, but they just need to make them armor plate +[5959.30 --> 5962.50] because all I'm going to do is buy 99 cent items, then shoot the drone down and sell +[5962.50 --> 5963.18] the parts on eBay. +[5963.56 --> 5971.94] I mean, this opens up a whole big problem though, for companies that aren't Amazon that suck +[5971.94 --> 5972.30] at it. +[5972.30 --> 5973.40] That suck at it. +[5973.88 --> 5979.46] Because if Linus Media Group was going to get into the, the just sending random things +[5979.46 --> 5979.84] to people. +[5979.84 --> 5980.76] Ship everyone a shirt. +[5981.08 --> 5982.88] It's just like, yeah, you probably want it. +[5983.00 --> 5983.20] Yeah. +[5983.24 --> 5983.58] You probably. +[5983.70 --> 5990.66] So the idea is you would build in enough margin to, into the product that whatever's inside +[5990.66 --> 5996.58] the box that the idea is that you'd be able to afford whatever collection service you need +[5996.58 --> 5998.06] to be able to send after these people. +[5998.58 --> 6003.64] And you just turn this into like, how many, pounding people until they pay. +[6003.74 --> 6006.86] And then anyone who pays, you send them more and more stuff. +[6007.10 --> 6010.76] I think the idea with the Amazon one was you'd have to pay when it showed up at the door. +[6010.82 --> 6011.06] Right. +[6011.28 --> 6011.74] COD. +[6012.06 --> 6012.24] Yeah. +[6012.24 --> 6012.86] That's even smarter. +[6012.86 --> 6015.32] It was all, it wasn't like a, you pay this later. +[6015.42 --> 6015.98] Jeff Bezos. +[6016.24 --> 6016.52] Brilliant. +[6016.78 --> 6017.18] COD. +[6017.32 --> 6017.46] Love it. +[6017.46 --> 6019.34] Or your credit card's hooked up to Amazon. +[6019.56 --> 6019.74] Right. +[6019.82 --> 6022.56] So if you accept the shipment, it just goes boop and just takes it. +[6023.00 --> 6025.98] The problem is that plays on people's curiosity really bad, right? +[6026.04 --> 6026.44] No, no. +[6026.44 --> 6027.22] Because the Amazon one. +[6027.22 --> 6029.36] If it shows up at my door, I'm going to be like, I want to know what's in the box. +[6029.40 --> 6030.16] What's in the box? +[6030.24 --> 6030.88] What's in the box? +[6031.00 --> 6031.66] Of course I'm going to know. +[6032.08 --> 6034.14] No, that's my model is where we hide what's inside. +[6034.14 --> 6037.52] This is Linus's crazy, scammy, not okay, going to go to jail model. +[6038.16 --> 6040.94] Amazon's actual model is like, this is what it is. +[6041.22 --> 6042.02] Do you want it? +[6042.06 --> 6043.26] If you want it right now, you can pay for it. +[6043.30 --> 6043.66] If not, you can pay for it. +[6043.66 --> 6045.10] I don't know that mine's illegal. +[6045.46 --> 6046.16] I'm pretty sure it's illegal. +[6046.16 --> 6049.18] I don't think it's illegal, but I'm guessing your model is going to be somewhere along the lines +[6049.18 --> 6052.14] of, if you want to see what's inside the box, pay $49.95 and I'm going to open +[6052.14 --> 6054.66] up, it's going to be like a box of half-eaten Cracker Jacks. +[6054.70 --> 6054.98] Yeah. +[6055.68 --> 6056.04] Yeah. +[6056.46 --> 6058.26] Well, that's what your box would have in it. +[6058.36 --> 6060.42] Someone else's box might contain candy. +[6061.64 --> 6065.64] Linus's box will be full of the coupons that showed up in the mail the previous week. +[6065.94 --> 6067.72] He'll be like, here, I don't want these. +[6067.78 --> 6068.94] This is technically garbage. +[6069.10 --> 6070.90] Those are really good coupons. +[6071.26 --> 6072.72] Hey, let's start experimenting, guys. +[6072.72 --> 6073.36] It's like A&W two for one. +[6074.06 --> 6078.20] Let's start off with a giveaway where we send a box to somebody, and then once they accept +[6078.20 --> 6080.98] the box, there's another box inside of it with an address that they then have +[6080.98 --> 6081.60] to send it to. +[6081.60 --> 6084.90] A&W coupons are a great deal. +[6085.32 --> 6087.52] Yeah, it'll be like one of those Russian doll things. +[6087.64 --> 6090.86] We'll just get like 30 boxes together, send it to the first guy, and see who receives the +[6090.86 --> 6091.52] last box. +[6091.70 --> 6091.96] Yeah. +[6092.02 --> 6092.80] It'll be awesome. +[6093.74 --> 6094.26] All right. +[6094.28 --> 6098.46] I think we've got like one or two more topics that we actually need to do before we end the +[6098.46 --> 6101.44] show here, so I'm going to get on that. +[6102.16 --> 6106.96] Twitch is now funding and selling games. +[6107.28 --> 6110.20] I actually didn't even read this article, so hopefully you did. +[6110.24 --> 6110.68] Yeah, nope. +[6110.68 --> 6111.38] Oh. +[6111.94 --> 6112.88] Well, there we go. +[6113.20 --> 6115.10] Posted on the forum by Kakao DJ. +[6115.40 --> 6115.94] Look, guys. +[6116.02 --> 6117.74] I know a few things. +[6117.88 --> 6118.56] It's my day off. +[6118.78 --> 6120.70] So it was posted originally on Kit Guru. +[6121.38 --> 6124.70] Twitch has started funding games after the success of Twitch Plays. +[6124.94 --> 6126.78] A title called Choice Chamber emerged. +[6126.86 --> 6130.94] It plans to use player interaction through Twitch and advance the story via voting. +[6131.60 --> 6132.78] So there you go. +[6132.78 --> 6136.68] Anyways, they needed $30,000 and it seemed they wouldn't reach it, so Twitch stepped in +[6136.68 --> 6138.74] and covered the rest of it, which is around $15,000. +[6138.74 --> 6144.46] So Twitch does make a butt ton of money on things like Twitch Plays just because of all the +[6144.46 --> 6147.44] viewers that are watching it and watching them add impressions. +[6147.76 --> 6150.34] So this makes a ton of sense for them. +[6150.48 --> 6151.18] Is there anything else really? +[6151.18 --> 6151.28] Yeah. +[6151.28 --> 6153.36] No, that's pretty much it. +[6153.44 --> 6155.94] And they're in such a great position to do this. +[6156.14 --> 6156.82] They really are. +[6156.90 --> 6160.74] Like so many people that are actively wanting and trying to play. +[6160.74 --> 6161.46] Oh my God. +[6161.54 --> 6162.10] What a pain. +[6162.24 --> 6162.86] Okay, guys. +[6162.86 --> 6163.18] We're back. +[6163.18 --> 6164.64] We're really sorry about that. +[6166.12 --> 6166.56] Sorry. +[6166.80 --> 6166.92] It's mine. +[6166.92 --> 6167.46] It's his fault. +[6167.92 --> 6168.28] It's all mine. +[6168.28 --> 6168.92] Sorry, everyone. +[6170.78 --> 6171.14] Sorry. +[6171.22 --> 6172.36] Why don't we even locally record? +[6172.44 --> 6174.78] I guess there's a good reason because of what just happened. +[6174.90 --> 6175.26] Never mind. +[6175.66 --> 6175.80] Yeah. +[6175.80 --> 6175.98] Whoa. +[6176.08 --> 6177.42] The chat is flying. +[6177.76 --> 6178.00] Yeah. +[6178.00 --> 6181.10] People are raising all the dongers in upset. +[6181.90 --> 6182.34] Okay. +[6182.50 --> 6184.96] So anyway, I guess that was it for that topic. +[6185.20 --> 6185.74] Sorry, everyone. +[6187.20 --> 6188.50] Last topic today. +[6188.94 --> 6190.72] Why you might not want. +[6190.82 --> 6191.06] Yeah. +[6191.10 --> 6191.58] It was $50. +[6191.92 --> 6193.00] A $50 project. +[6194.08 --> 6194.44] ARA. +[6194.44 --> 6198.16] So I think we actually kind of talked about this already. +[6198.32 --> 6200.80] But anyway, the original article was on Slash Gear. +[6201.22 --> 6204.10] And the idea is that even though Project ARA looks really cool, +[6204.20 --> 6205.62] there's going to be a few different sizes. +[6206.00 --> 6207.14] It's going to be super affordable. +[6207.56 --> 6208.22] Check this out. +[6208.28 --> 6213.80] This is a prototype right here that actually has like spots for modules to kind of slide into. +[6214.12 --> 6220.64] The idea is that it is going to be so basic, at least out of the box, +[6220.64 --> 6226.48] that probably phone enthusiasts will give exactly zero cares about it, at least at the beginning. +[6226.56 --> 6227.58] We knew this, though. +[6227.70 --> 6228.34] We knew this. +[6228.78 --> 6229.64] But there you go. +[6233.86 --> 6234.42] Oh, okay. +[6234.54 --> 6234.84] Sorry. +[6234.88 --> 6235.70] I was catching up with you guys. +[6235.78 --> 6238.00] That's the modular smartphone design. +[6238.06 --> 6238.24] Yeah. +[6238.24 --> 6241.08] Actually, I'd buy one just to tinker with it. +[6241.08 --> 6243.68] You know, just being a developer, I just want to play around with the platform for $50. +[6244.02 --> 6246.02] Unfortunately, probably not that much tinkering, though. +[6246.08 --> 6252.28] Because if you look at it, it's like, this is the CPU slot, which you can only have one exact size for. +[6252.66 --> 6258.48] So tinkering is going to be at almost the same level as like unplugging and plugging in a USB. +[6259.72 --> 6260.58] Oh, screw that thing. +[6260.58 --> 6261.02] I'm out. +[6261.50 --> 6262.54] Turn off the phone. +[6263.04 --> 6263.78] Slide the thing. +[6263.92 --> 6264.62] Slide the thing. +[6264.78 --> 6265.52] Turn on the phone. +[6265.52 --> 6272.38] How much are they predicting this device will be like, I mean, comparably equipped to like, you know, today's smartphone? +[6272.60 --> 6273.80] Like, I don't just want a CPU block. +[6273.88 --> 6276.02] I obviously want like a camera and I want storage. +[6276.34 --> 6276.98] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[6277.00 --> 6278.22] There's all those things, too. +[6278.30 --> 6283.00] But it's the thing that I wasn't super stoked on was the phone blocks idea. +[6283.16 --> 6290.96] If you paid a lot of attention to the phone blocks idea, the size of the blocks changed because he was like, oh, well, you can increase performance in this way. +[6291.08 --> 6292.56] Like, say you want a way better camera. +[6292.56 --> 6295.96] You can change the size and type and style of the blocks. +[6296.20 --> 6300.56] With actual Project Aura, it's predefined size slots. +[6301.64 --> 6301.72] Right. +[6302.14 --> 6302.50] Okay. +[6303.00 --> 6305.48] So there's a big limitation on what you can do with it. +[6305.48 --> 6305.70] So you can make it thicker. +[6306.42 --> 6307.56] But not wider. +[6308.78 --> 6308.92] Maybe. +[6308.92 --> 6311.90] If you look at the way it rails in, it might not even be able to be made thicker. +[6311.92 --> 6317.56] Another thing is if I put this thing in my pocket, is it going to just come out as like a pile of blocks every time I reach in there to try to answer my phone? +[6318.04 --> 6319.40] Like, I don't. +[6319.68 --> 6320.48] Sounds like my pocket. +[6320.48 --> 6323.32] I don't want to be like talking on the phone or something. +[6323.40 --> 6326.28] I bump something and like freaking CPU block flies out of it. +[6326.44 --> 6326.92] Like, I don't know. +[6327.02 --> 6327.20] It should be fine. +[6327.32 --> 6328.52] I mean, it's Google. +[6328.78 --> 6330.50] The first iteration will probably suck. +[6330.64 --> 6332.32] And then the second iteration will be okay. +[6332.40 --> 6334.42] And then the third iteration will be really good. +[6334.42 --> 6336.16] If it ever comes out, it'll be like Google car. +[6336.64 --> 6336.88] Yeah. +[6337.58 --> 6338.04] All right. +[6338.12 --> 6341.36] Well, I think we got to go just because I know you have to go. +[6341.42 --> 6342.78] I definitely have to go. +[6343.02 --> 6343.98] If I'm going to be able to go. +[6344.12 --> 6346.02] And Barnaclis doesn't seem to have anywhere to go. +[6346.12 --> 6347.84] Thank you for joining us today, though, Jerry. +[6347.84 --> 6349.80] Jerry, do you want to just do a quick plug for your channel? +[6349.90 --> 6353.62] Tell people where they can find you if they think you're interesting and attractive? +[6354.28 --> 6354.56] Sure. +[6354.70 --> 6355.36] Well, everybody think. +[6355.44 --> 6355.64] Come on. +[6355.66 --> 6356.46] Everybody thinks I'm attractive. +[6356.58 --> 6359.54] Anyways, I'm Barnaclis Nerdgasm, otherwise known as Jerry Berg. +[6359.64 --> 6362.34] You can come and find me over at Barnerd.com. +[6362.40 --> 6365.16] That'll just redirect you over to YouTube because I don't have a fancy site yet. +[6365.18 --> 6365.64] But I will. +[6366.36 --> 6368.32] And come check me out because I do videos on absolutely everything. +[6368.32 --> 6372.38] And tonight I'm going to do something cool with a toilet plunger and some Vaseline. +[6372.52 --> 6373.40] You won't want to miss it. +[6374.12 --> 6374.48] Wow. +[6374.48 --> 6376.86] So it's not what you think, though. +[6378.22 --> 6379.26] How do you know what I'm thinking? +[6380.88 --> 6381.64] You're Canadian. +[6381.90 --> 6382.66] I know what you're thinking. +[6383.44 --> 6385.56] I was thinking chopping down trees. +[6386.76 --> 6387.16] B.S. +[6387.24 --> 6387.48] Always. +[6387.80 --> 6388.28] I'm just kidding. +[6389.18 --> 6390.44] It's the only thing we ever think. +[6390.62 --> 6390.86] Yeah. +[6391.42 --> 6393.36] But anyways, guys, come over and follow me on Twitter, too. +[6393.42 --> 6394.08] I'm at Barnaclis. +[6394.08 --> 6396.90] I'm trying to get more people over there because I love talking to all of you. +[6397.46 --> 6398.24] So fun. +[6398.34 --> 6398.98] Just ask Linus. +[6399.04 --> 6399.92] I'm a loud mouth on there. +[6399.92 --> 6402.56] I tweet like every 15 and a half seconds. +[6402.94 --> 6409.54] Sometimes you, Timmy, you and Timmy, like I just go to my Twitter and then it's like Barnaclis and Timmy. +[6409.88 --> 6410.64] Barnaclis and Timmy. +[6410.82 --> 6411.70] It's what you do. +[6412.40 --> 6414.16] It's like, whoa, what happened? +[6415.56 --> 6419.92] And then there'll be like actually 10 different people at tagged on the message. +[6419.98 --> 6422.88] And I was like, I can't even reply to this because there's like 20 characters left. +[6424.02 --> 6426.06] He got so mad that I was on here tonight. +[6426.06 --> 6426.64] He's like, what? +[6426.72 --> 6427.84] Why am I not on there? +[6427.84 --> 6429.52] I was like, well, Timmy, you're not as good looking as me. +[6429.56 --> 6430.44] I'm just saying, you know. +[6430.64 --> 6431.34] Holy snap. +[6431.70 --> 6432.02] Wow. +[6432.36 --> 6432.88] That's how it's going to be. +[6432.88 --> 6434.60] That's the cell's Squarespace right there. +[6434.70 --> 6435.26] See, look at that. +[6436.26 --> 6437.06] All right, guys. +[6437.12 --> 6438.46] Thank you very much for watching. +[6438.64 --> 6439.94] We will see you again next week. +[6440.04 --> 6441.52] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[6441.64 --> 6443.10] Thanks again, Jerry, for joining us.

No awkwardness. +[388.58 --> 394.54] I get to talk about the rock-solid heart-touching reliability of the HDMI output on this notebook, +[394.54 --> 398.42] and I don't have to stress out about that other stuff. +[398.42 --> 398.92] I'm sorry? +[399.00 --> 399.66] Did it touch your heart? +[399.66 --> 400.80] Oh, it definitely touched me. +[400.82 --> 401.40] Were you emotionally happy? +[401.72 --> 402.60] I don't know about the heart. +[402.90 --> 404.24] It does kind of touch you, actually. +[404.34 --> 405.14] It does touch me. +[405.16 --> 405.60] Quite intimately. +[405.78 --> 407.82] And it touches my junk. +[408.06 --> 408.28] Yep. +[408.70 --> 409.52] It touches my junk. +[409.96 --> 411.28] And I'm okay with that, +[411.38 --> 412.90] because it actually doesn't run that hot. +[413.24 --> 414.58] Yeah, yeah, that's true. +[414.58 --> 415.78] For a gaming notebook, +[416.02 --> 418.08] I'm surprisingly okay with... +[418.08 --> 420.04] It's just like a nice, comfortable warmth. +[420.52 --> 420.78] Yeah. +[422.26 --> 425.64] Having warm junk is not a bad thing. +[425.88 --> 428.58] So we both comfortably spoon... +[428.58 --> 429.62] Our notebooks. +[429.64 --> 430.18] Our notebooks. +[430.28 --> 430.42] Yeah. +[431.10 --> 433.14] Well, no, for us to call it spooning, +[433.28 --> 434.92] we'd have to, like, kind of turn them around. +[435.16 --> 436.80] That's going to be really bad for usability. +[436.92 --> 437.78] Sit like this with them. +[437.86 --> 438.80] Yeah, but they're... +[438.80 --> 439.32] You know what? +[439.36 --> 442.36] If I had a criticism of Asus' latest gaming notebook... +[442.36 --> 444.58] The reach-around is not very easy. +[444.90 --> 446.08] The reach-around doesn't work. +[448.56 --> 450.18] Reach-around is very difficult to manage. +[450.86 --> 453.18] You need to make it so that the keyboard can pop out +[453.18 --> 454.44] and then swivel around. +[454.84 --> 455.42] Yeah, well... +[455.42 --> 456.16] So you can type backwards. +[456.24 --> 457.34] The funny thing about Asus is +[457.34 --> 458.58] they have so many different notebooks +[458.58 --> 460.54] that they, like, probably have one like that. +[461.14 --> 461.60] Like a... +[461.60 --> 461.78] Really? +[463.00 --> 463.88] The Tai Chi. +[464.18 --> 465.78] It's got screens on both sides. +[467.76 --> 468.16] Yes. +[468.88 --> 469.24] Perfect. +[469.52 --> 469.84] Okay. +[470.02 --> 470.58] There we go. +[470.66 --> 471.66] Oh, I love it. +[472.62 --> 474.60] What the hell are we even talking about? +[474.66 --> 474.98] I don't know. +[475.08 --> 475.68] Spooning laptops? +[475.94 --> 476.66] Spooning laptops. +[476.66 --> 478.40] No, we have an actual show... +[478.40 --> 480.54] Can you just stay focused for five minutes? +[480.54 --> 482.26] I guess. +[482.40 --> 483.58] I mean, like... +[483.58 --> 484.44] Jeez, man. +[484.94 --> 486.96] Twitch chat is not working for me. +[487.04 --> 489.40] So unfortunately, I can't chat with you guys. +[489.50 --> 492.02] Maybe it's because I got signed out for some reason. +[492.60 --> 495.38] I'm just going to go ahead and sign that baby back in. +[495.60 --> 498.96] And then let's kick off our first topic here, you guys. +[498.96 --> 500.92] Our first topic, I believe, is hover bikes. +[501.20 --> 501.82] Hover bikes. +[501.88 --> 502.78] Let's do that. +[502.86 --> 503.14] Okay. +[503.24 --> 504.92] So you guys, check this out. +[505.02 --> 506.48] This is unreal. +[506.98 --> 509.20] We're going to screen share because we can do that. +[509.28 --> 510.28] Apparently there's an advertisement. +[510.64 --> 510.98] Oh. +[511.38 --> 511.92] No way. +[512.08 --> 514.50] Long summer weekends are just around the corner. +[514.60 --> 515.82] Oh, they have audio. +[516.18 --> 516.52] Oh, no. +[516.52 --> 516.92] It's Twitch. +[516.92 --> 517.14] Oh, no. +[517.14 --> 517.64] It's Twitch. +[517.64 --> 517.84] Yeah. +[517.84 --> 518.60] It's your certified service expert. +[518.94 --> 519.16] No. +[519.64 --> 520.24] Yeah, it is. +[520.32 --> 520.68] It's Twitch. +[521.10 --> 524.24] It's that hardcore muted but still doing things. +[524.72 --> 525.82] We could learn about these. +[525.92 --> 527.54] Oh, the ad goes away on its own. +[528.12 --> 528.94] That's innovative. +[529.12 --> 529.56] Beautiful. +[529.90 --> 530.94] So there it is, you guys. +[530.94 --> 531.82] No skip button here. +[531.82 --> 538.04] The world's first functional hover bike, the Aero X. +[538.20 --> 543.54] And this is such a great, this is such a great, this is such a great tagline. +[543.54 --> 550.86] The Aero X lets you pretend to hover bike through the forests of Endor, which it legit actually does. +[550.94 --> 553.12] So this picture is not faked in any way. +[553.42 --> 556.44] This isn't like the hover skateboard hoax. +[556.44 --> 556.46] No. +[556.70 --> 557.72] That was so depressing. +[557.72 --> 562.38] With, you know, Christopher Lloyd and Tony Hawk and like all these people involved. +[562.50 --> 564.94] And I was just like, what are you guys actually doing? +[565.14 --> 567.92] And it was like right before but not on April Fool's. +[568.02 --> 568.38] Yeah. +[568.60 --> 570.48] Like it wasn't April Fool's. +[570.48 --> 576.02] I was just like, yeah, this is just kind of mean to people because a lot of people really went for it. +[576.52 --> 578.34] So I was sad for them. +[578.34 --> 586.34] So basically this, the video here is actually from a prototype back in 2012. +[587.68 --> 589.52] And I don't know if we've got audio here. +[589.56 --> 593.44] I don't know if there's actually audio on this, on this video here. +[593.48 --> 594.68] I'm just going to check really quick here. +[594.68 --> 595.90] Yeah, okay. +[595.94 --> 596.86] There's no audio on the video. +[597.22 --> 599.44] But some of the interesting stuff actually happens a little bit later. +[599.52 --> 607.82] So some of the challenges that they went through were figuring out how to counter the, like when you're first spinning up the rotors, +[607.98 --> 614.06] there's a lot of force that can cause it to, that can cause the bike to torque one way or the other. +[614.06 --> 615.92] They had to figure out how to counter that. +[616.02 --> 625.56] They had to take some cues from quadricopters like the Parad-AR drone with respect to how to track if you're just drifting in the wind. +[625.94 --> 629.94] The idea though, and this is, this is the craziest thing about it. +[630.00 --> 638.04] The idea here is that if you ride a motorcycle, you should be able to straight up get on one of these and ride it. +[638.04 --> 644.62] Which as someone who can ride a motorcycle is like pretty exciting. +[645.10 --> 645.22] Yeah. +[645.48 --> 649.08] So they're going pretty slow in this video, but this is quite an old video. +[649.38 --> 651.02] Oh yeah, I saw this like years ago. +[651.04 --> 651.84] Oh man, look at this. +[652.06 --> 656.26] But what's cool about it is they're giving us some specs about the finished one. +[656.26 --> 665.22] So they're saying it can go up to 67 kilometers an hour and up to 3.7 meters high, which doesn't sound like a ton. +[666.16 --> 667.58] 72 kilometers an hour, sorry. +[667.58 --> 674.50] And up to 3.7 meters high, which doesn't sound that high, but think about this for a second, especially the American viewers. +[677.28 --> 680.54] 3.7 meters is more than a story. +[681.58 --> 687.70] Like that's more than the height of like almost pretty much the highest ceiling you'd ever find in a house. +[687.70 --> 697.06] So you would, you could literally be driving around looking into second story windows if something like this was ever street legal. +[697.06 --> 699.02] Which you probably shouldn't do. +[699.14 --> 700.02] Yeah, and you probably shouldn't do that. +[700.34 --> 707.28] And the reason for the 3.7 meter height restriction is actually so that you don't get classified as an aircraft. +[707.28 --> 712.46] In theory, I guess there's no real reason why it couldn't go higher. +[713.26 --> 714.20] But like... +[714.20 --> 715.12] I know. +[715.12 --> 716.12] I know. +[716.12 --> 717.12] Like that override ship. +[717.12 --> 718.12] I know. +[718.12 --> 719.12] It's going to be brutal. +[719.12 --> 725.50] Someone will die and then they're going to set back personal flying vehicles like 10, 20 years. +[725.50 --> 726.58] Yeah, it's going to be terrible. +[726.58 --> 728.16] You are wrecking it for us all. +[728.16 --> 730.42] They have safety stuff too, which I thought was interesting. +[730.54 --> 734.12] Those like anti-flip guide rails that you saw around the side in the video. +[734.60 --> 739.68] And they're thinking about doing stuff like replacing those or adding on airbags, which I think is really smart. +[740.32 --> 746.04] That's actually either really smart or like just a totally bad idea. +[746.16 --> 747.90] Like how do you put an airbag on a motorcycle? +[748.08 --> 751.30] I think it's designed more like that motorcycle helmet that's an airbag. +[751.44 --> 753.88] Sorry, not motorcycle helmet, but like pedal biking helmet. +[754.02 --> 754.62] Yeah, okay. +[754.62 --> 757.66] Because it'll register a fall and then... +[757.66 --> 760.04] And I think it's going to be around the sides. +[760.24 --> 762.10] So it could be more like a suit almost even. +[762.80 --> 763.34] Or a suit. +[763.34 --> 768.16] Like I'm in free fall and it goes like Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters on me. +[769.40 --> 771.20] And it's like lets itself pop. +[771.60 --> 775.34] So you have the soft impact and then maybe you fall like a foot, but it's no big deal. +[775.48 --> 777.60] I don't think you'd want it to let itself pop. +[777.60 --> 783.78] Because the thing about crumple zones on cars is that they're designed to be weak, but strong enough. +[784.18 --> 785.16] Because like let's say... +[785.16 --> 786.82] Okay, so let's think about... +[786.82 --> 787.80] But it's not going to... +[787.80 --> 789.88] Unless they make it foam. +[790.36 --> 792.04] If it's an airbag, it's not going to crumple zone. +[792.34 --> 792.88] Yeah, exactly. +[793.30 --> 796.60] So like if it popped, that's like kind of like crumple zone logic. +[796.96 --> 798.10] Yeah, that's why I was thinking. +[798.18 --> 799.50] Yeah, so that's like probably terrible. +[799.50 --> 800.50] Because like... +[800.50 --> 802.34] Okay, depending how you're falling, right? +[802.48 --> 802.68] Yeah. +[802.68 --> 808.54] Because if the way that you crash is kind of like, you know, the one stormtrooper or bike trooper or whatever they were called. +[808.60 --> 809.48] You know why they had those? +[810.48 --> 814.94] Because there was an issue manufacturing like stormtrooper armor. +[815.38 --> 817.96] And so they're like, oh yeah, we'll like redesign them. +[818.02 --> 819.96] We'll call them like these troopers. +[820.52 --> 822.28] This is all hearsay. +[822.42 --> 824.38] It's not validated, but that's a rumor I heard. +[824.38 --> 829.16] So anyway, like the one guy who gets thrown off the bike and goes into the tree. +[829.90 --> 834.42] And like what I think was one of the most memorable Star Wars bad guy deaths, actually. +[834.84 --> 837.72] The guy who like hits the tree upside down and then falls down. +[838.10 --> 845.32] So if that was how you like fell off of it, like something disastrous happened, you went flying off of it at 72 kilometers an hour. +[845.32 --> 848.60] Or you would want it to be solid enough. +[849.54 --> 850.80] Yeah, my only... +[850.80 --> 852.14] To bounce more than like... +[852.14 --> 854.84] That's what I was worried about though, is exactly what you just said, is bouncing. +[855.50 --> 856.42] Because I don't want to bounce. +[856.64 --> 858.46] I feel like that would be a terrible thing. +[858.82 --> 862.26] And you're just smacking something at 72 kilometers an hour and then going... +[862.26 --> 872.34] One way that you could absorb the impact without letting the air out of the device is you could allow the air to shift around inside the bubble. +[872.34 --> 874.34] So not like fully inflated? +[874.34 --> 875.60] Yeah, so like... +[875.60 --> 877.20] Like a little bit of relaxation? +[877.20 --> 878.62] Yeah, or if you had like... +[878.62 --> 887.42] Or if you had, you know, narrower gaps internally so that the air can't move extremely quickly from one zone to another. +[887.54 --> 889.30] Or just like squeeze into another zone but not flow? +[889.44 --> 893.94] Yeah, then you could keep it from just bouncing off of trees or whatever else. +[893.94 --> 894.70] Neither of us are engineers. +[894.78 --> 895.14] Yeah, neither of us are... +[895.14 --> 896.52] This seems like a not terrible idea. +[896.70 --> 898.84] Safety, you know, rangers. +[898.84 --> 901.84] I thought that was super cool when they came out with a biking helmet that inflates. +[901.84 --> 904.60] It was just way too expensive, if I remember correctly. +[904.88 --> 906.02] Yeah, it was. +[906.40 --> 907.52] Yeah, it was really expensive. +[907.52 --> 907.96] It was crazy expensive. +[908.26 --> 910.58] And I don't even know that it was available in North America. +[911.02 --> 911.72] So that's... +[911.72 --> 912.48] I don't really think so. +[912.56 --> 914.34] It was just like a university project. +[914.44 --> 916.26] Someone says that's not how airbags work, Lennis. +[916.40 --> 917.98] I know that's not how airbags work. +[918.16 --> 919.38] We're not talking about airbags. +[919.38 --> 921.76] And again, we're not safety engineers. +[922.26 --> 925.76] So like, don't listen to any of that because none of that will happen. +[926.28 --> 928.86] We would be safety fungineers. +[929.74 --> 933.36] I think what they were talking about anyways was airbags on the side of the thing. +[933.66 --> 936.12] I like this idea from Felix R90. +[936.12 --> 939.08] A giant laser beam that destroys everything in front of you. +[939.44 --> 939.54] Perfect. +[939.64 --> 940.40] So you don't hit it. +[940.40 --> 941.72] And you never have to worry about it. +[941.72 --> 942.68] Well, because you know what? +[942.84 --> 948.86] That's why motorcyclists on the track can crash at a couple hundred kilometers an hour +[948.86 --> 954.18] and actually be much less likely to be injured or killed than someone who crashes on the street +[954.18 --> 958.18] going 70, 80 kilometers an hour because there's no obstacles. +[958.54 --> 960.80] I thought you were going to say because they're giant laser beams. +[960.92 --> 961.58] And I was like, what? +[962.36 --> 962.70] No. +[963.04 --> 965.10] It's like, yeah, the Ducati laser beam-o-bio. +[966.34 --> 969.64] No, because what happens is if you watch what happens when a motorcyclist crashes, +[969.70 --> 970.56] like it's still bad. +[970.56 --> 973.98] And you can still get, like, messed up real good. +[974.18 --> 975.58] But they skid on their gear. +[975.80 --> 976.96] They slide on the gear. +[977.14 --> 978.56] Whereas when you hit a lamppost... +[979.28 --> 979.86] It's horrible. +[980.00 --> 981.32] Your slide stops. +[981.66 --> 983.06] Yeah, I saw this gif. +[983.30 --> 983.98] Terrible segue. +[984.16 --> 986.52] But I saw this gif of guys skateboarding. +[986.58 --> 989.38] And the one guy flies off and his skateboard goes across and takes out a few people. +[989.88 --> 993.24] One of the guys jumps off his skateboard before he gets hit by the other skateboard. +[993.66 --> 994.88] And they're going really fast. +[995.00 --> 997.06] So he has to, like, keep himself running, but he's going too quick. +[997.12 --> 1000.10] And he dives and he skims right beside this pole. +[1000.10 --> 1003.08] And he slides, like, really fast right beside it. +[1003.12 --> 1005.58] And if you would have nailed right into it, that would have been really bad. +[1006.04 --> 1006.68] Did you see the... +[1006.68 --> 1008.22] It's like, oh, God. +[1008.28 --> 1012.92] Did you see the one of the skateboarder who lands on his ass at the bottom of a bike rail? +[1013.12 --> 1015.10] And then, like, lands right on the skateboard? +[1015.38 --> 1015.72] Yeah. +[1015.98 --> 1019.16] And then just, like, rolls on by and the guy gives him a high five? +[1021.02 --> 1022.00] Oh, that was awesome. +[1022.14 --> 1023.98] We should just turn this whole show into meme. +[1024.16 --> 1024.58] I know. +[1024.74 --> 1025.38] We should just... +[1025.38 --> 1026.44] Cover all the memes. +[1026.44 --> 1028.92] Ray William Johnson's not doing Equals 3 anymore. +[1029.50 --> 1031.52] I think that there is a definite gap. +[1032.10 --> 1032.36] Okay. +[1032.46 --> 1032.96] Sorry, guys. +[1033.00 --> 1035.30] It's not April Fool's, so I shouldn't be making jokes like that. +[1035.36 --> 1038.02] We are not turning this into Equals 3. +[1038.12 --> 1038.26] No. +[1038.94 --> 1040.28] Equals when. +[1041.74 --> 1043.48] We're rebranding the show again. +[1043.96 --> 1045.72] And you guys will all hate it again. +[1045.86 --> 1046.02] Okay. +[1046.02 --> 1050.02] Let's do one more topic before we bring JJ on, just because otherwise I feel like we're +[1050.02 --> 1052.02] not going to get any topics done today. +[1052.24 --> 1052.50] Infinideck? +[1053.04 --> 1053.44] Yeah. +[1053.86 --> 1054.72] The Infinideck. +[1054.88 --> 1055.76] This, you guys. +[1056.12 --> 1060.70] This is actually... +[1060.70 --> 1061.72] You know what? +[1061.78 --> 1063.48] I'll let you introduce this topic. +[1063.76 --> 1067.20] I'm going to fire up the video here, though, so that they can check this out while you talk. +[1067.20 --> 1073.84] So, Omni was called a 360 degree treadmill, essentially, but it wasn't really... +[1073.84 --> 1077.12] It depends on, I guess, how you want to look at that, but I don't really see it as a treadmill +[1077.12 --> 1081.00] because you just kind of slid with shoes that were designed for sliding. +[1081.08 --> 1085.02] It's more like a tread cereal bowl that you stand in. +[1085.12 --> 1085.26] Yeah. +[1085.42 --> 1089.76] This is actually a treadmill that can actually go in 360 degrees, which is very interesting. +[1089.88 --> 1094.20] You can see they're walking on crazy angles, but that's because the treads are moving in +[1094.20 --> 1096.38] two different directions, which allow that to be able to happen. +[1096.92 --> 1098.42] So, very interesting. +[1098.52 --> 1102.46] It still has tons of the same problems that Omni has, and probably even more so in the +[1102.46 --> 1108.30] idea of it not being very easy to store, being gigantic in general. +[1108.46 --> 1109.10] Being expensive. +[1109.20 --> 1109.94] Being expensive. +[1110.26 --> 1111.24] Difficult to manufacture. +[1111.44 --> 1113.00] Difficult to manufacture, all that kind of stuff. +[1113.62 --> 1115.42] Probably even more so for most of those. +[1115.58 --> 1120.00] It has tons of other issues, too, in terms of latency, getting feedback from the game, +[1120.40 --> 1123.96] and it not reacting in time, you moving in a weird way and it not reacting in time. +[1124.20 --> 1125.14] All this kind of stuff. +[1125.24 --> 1130.50] That being said, it's really early on, so hopefully that kind of stuff can come later. +[1132.70 --> 1133.10] It's... +[1133.10 --> 1135.26] Yeah, it's going to be expensive. +[1135.52 --> 1136.54] I can't see this possibly... +[1136.54 --> 1139.10] Because you've got to think, it's more advanced than a normal treadmill. +[1139.68 --> 1139.92] Yeah. +[1140.12 --> 1141.92] And treadmills are already not that cheap. +[1141.92 --> 1147.36] But then again, exercise equipment seems to be the biggest gigantic scam in the entire +[1147.36 --> 1151.44] world, in terms of how much that stuff costs versus how much it costs to manufacture. +[1151.44 --> 1153.42] I mean, it's a weight. +[1154.30 --> 1156.74] It's literally a hunk of metal. +[1156.90 --> 1159.44] The dumbbells that I have at my house are like, just... +[1160.38 --> 1161.78] It's one solid piece. +[1161.86 --> 1163.16] Like, it's not one of those really nice ones. +[1163.26 --> 1167.24] And even the paint on it is like, it obviously dripped on the one side and they all look like +[1167.24 --> 1167.52] that. +[1167.76 --> 1170.32] They're like, not even that cheap and they're just completely crap. +[1170.44 --> 1172.00] But it's just the cheapest ones that they had. +[1172.58 --> 1173.20] So I was like, whatever. +[1173.30 --> 1174.32] I don't need a fancy one. +[1174.50 --> 1177.08] It weighs a certain amount and I pick it up and put it down. +[1177.08 --> 1180.20] So I'm not too worried about it. +[1180.38 --> 1181.18] Like, biggest scam ever. +[1181.34 --> 1184.76] You know, that would be a great business idea. +[1185.60 --> 1186.80] Linus Media Group weights? +[1187.04 --> 1187.76] No, no. +[1187.90 --> 1188.80] I don't want to do it. +[1189.00 --> 1194.94] But if someone went, okay, we're going to make environmentally conscious exercise equipment. +[1194.94 --> 1199.42] So basically all it is, is like recycled metal and crap. +[1199.76 --> 1204.54] And they just mold it into the shape of things that people can lift and put down. +[1204.66 --> 1208.66] And they'll just be like, look, this stuff legit didn't cost us any more than scrap metal costs. +[1208.84 --> 1214.26] So you cover the shipping, you cover our cost to turn it into this shape, and we're good. +[1214.94 --> 1216.26] And also some profit. +[1216.76 --> 1218.14] But not as much. +[1218.26 --> 1219.66] But not that much. +[1219.72 --> 1220.72] Yeah, not that much. +[1221.22 --> 1222.58] That's not a bad idea. +[1222.58 --> 1224.46] I'm sure that would work pretty well, actually. +[1224.94 --> 1227.68] It's not the world's most horrible idea. +[1229.56 --> 1231.04] By Linus Media Group. +[1231.62 --> 1235.18] Oh, we never said the hover bike. +[1235.40 --> 1235.80] Right. +[1235.90 --> 1239.80] You have to put down $5,000, and the price is going to be $85,000. +[1239.90 --> 1245.38] So you put down $5,000 just to reserve one, and they're not expecting them to actually be available until 2017. +[1245.38 --> 1250.20] So this is like some pretty hardcore pre-ordering going on. +[1250.20 --> 1259.56] But expecting clients like U.S. Border Patrol or Park Rangers, or they're an off-road vehicle, to be the target for this. +[1260.26 --> 1261.28] Maybe they're willing. +[1261.50 --> 1266.02] Maybe some of them are willing to at least invest in one to find out if it's a good idea and then go from there. +[1266.02 --> 1268.02] Apparently someone has named them slick lifts. +[1268.26 --> 1268.94] Slick lifts. +[1269.50 --> 1273.98] I think slick lifts are more like the kind of thing I would want to wear in my shoes. +[1274.74 --> 1274.98] Oh. +[1276.30 --> 1277.18] That's not a bad name. +[1277.20 --> 1277.80] Slick lifts. +[1278.40 --> 1279.62] And they could be like stylish. +[1280.06 --> 1281.40] They could be like fancy colors. +[1281.40 --> 1290.84] Because if we've learned anything from Kickstarter, it's that people will kickstart the hell out of anything that's a completely normal thing, but like different colors. +[1290.92 --> 1295.16] Did you see that Kickstarter for brightly colored USB micro cables? +[1295.42 --> 1295.84] No. +[1296.74 --> 1297.60] I was just like, really? +[1298.14 --> 1300.14] And someone was like, oh, Linus, you should cover this. +[1300.18 --> 1301.20] You should request a sample. +[1301.52 --> 1301.84] No. +[1301.84 --> 1304.36] And I'm just like, what could I possibly say? +[1304.58 --> 1306.52] He also hates micro USB cables. +[1306.52 --> 1315.04] With all the fiery passion that I can conjure in my soul, I hate micro USB. +[1315.44 --> 1322.38] So, you know, a slightly more aesthetically pleasing micro USB cable is unlikely to light a fire for me. +[1322.54 --> 1331.88] Something I also want to bring up about Infinideck, if we're going to be bouncing around in topics, is the possible resurgence and comeback of the arcade. +[1333.34 --> 1335.52] I brought this up when we first started talking about it. +[1335.52 --> 1335.58] Yeah. +[1335.58 --> 1340.10] Because if you have like a home Infinideck, it's going to be this little tiny thing. +[1340.22 --> 1345.88] If you go to a giant arcade, it could be Infinideck style infinite room. +[1346.64 --> 1347.04] Yeah. +[1347.52 --> 1349.36] And it could be like a whole room. +[1349.38 --> 1352.28] And that kind of a thing might cost $100,000. +[1352.64 --> 1354.30] So you're not going to be able to afford it in your house. +[1354.38 --> 1354.62] Yeah. +[1355.10 --> 1357.06] And you might not have space for it like at all. +[1357.06 --> 1365.64] But every arcade in the lower mainland here in the Vancouver area is gone now because you can get so close to that experience at home. +[1365.64 --> 1375.94] Whereas this could be a complete revival for that business model where it's like, look, you know, come in and pay $30 an hour to use whatever you want. +[1375.94 --> 1382.94] And with virtual reality and the kinds of, I can imagine someone like Oculus having a professional grade option. +[1383.56 --> 1383.76] Yeah. +[1383.90 --> 1385.40] Versus a consumer grade option. +[1385.40 --> 1391.92] So having like really advanced virtual reality with much better sensors, low latency cameras for motion tracking and all that. +[1391.92 --> 1393.32] Like built all around into the room. +[1393.54 --> 1394.60] Built into a room. +[1394.74 --> 1400.92] I mean, that's the kind of thing that I would go and I would pay $30 an hour to go and chill for a couple hours. +[1400.92 --> 1401.56] I'd try out. +[1401.60 --> 1401.70] Yeah. +[1401.76 --> 1405.74] If they had VR and AR experiences too, you could have both styles. +[1405.88 --> 1411.76] That's my problem with the Infinideck though is I really don't think that stationary... +[1411.76 --> 1411.90] Okay. +[1412.18 --> 1421.60] Outside of markets where like places like Europe and Japan where they're legitimately not going to have enough space for an augmented reality gaming experience. +[1421.80 --> 1427.54] I think that augmented reality is going to be the one that draws me much more than VR. +[1427.54 --> 1434.58] Like I would rather deal with the inconvenience of a backpack with like a heavy battery in it or something. +[1434.92 --> 1435.02] Yeah. +[1435.24 --> 1439.20] And a front facing camera that augments what I see. +[1439.34 --> 1443.86] And then you're going to get like essentially paintball fields. +[1444.06 --> 1444.30] Yes. +[1444.36 --> 1449.10] Because one problem with that is if you just kind of cruise, if you do it in your house, it's a very limited setup. +[1449.26 --> 1449.46] Yes. +[1449.64 --> 1450.60] Every map's going to be the same. +[1450.66 --> 1451.36] It's going to get really boring. +[1451.52 --> 1456.74] If you do it outside, people are going to look at you like you're absolutely insane and they're probably going to try and talk to you. +[1456.74 --> 1458.32] And that's going to break the whole immersion experience. +[1458.44 --> 1461.22] So it's going to have to be like a VR field. +[1461.90 --> 1462.68] I think there's really... +[1462.68 --> 1463.68] Which could be really cool. +[1464.00 --> 1464.44] And you know what? +[1464.46 --> 1467.80] It comes back to our tanks and RC tanks and planes idea. +[1468.32 --> 1468.74] Where like... +[1469.30 --> 1469.62] Oh man. +[1469.62 --> 1470.82] People might not even get that reference. +[1470.94 --> 1479.18] Actually piloting, you know, like a plane and being able to fire like virtual lasers and crap at other people's planes and like take them down. +[1479.18 --> 1481.76] And the future is exciting. +[1482.86 --> 1483.36] All right. +[1483.44 --> 1485.24] So why don't we bring JJ on? +[1485.30 --> 1486.82] Do you want to get him to join us here? +[1492.02 --> 1493.56] I'm going to just tweet this out. +[1493.56 --> 1501.88] Tune in live at twitch.tv slash Linus Tech. +[1501.88 --> 1506.22] We actually have a watch page on linustechtips.com. +[1506.34 --> 1507.88] I just don't know the URL. +[1508.52 --> 1511.24] Which is sort of a terrible, terrible thing. +[1511.28 --> 1512.30] Nobody does anymore. +[1513.14 --> 1513.42] Yeah. +[1514.28 --> 1514.76] Okay. +[1514.86 --> 1515.26] All right. +[1515.44 --> 1517.88] So bring on our... +[1517.88 --> 1518.00] Oh. +[1518.36 --> 1520.16] Is it working? +[1520.16 --> 1520.56] Are you there? +[1522.56 --> 1523.40] Hello, sir. +[1523.48 --> 1524.28] Can you hear me? +[1524.62 --> 1525.86] I can hear you, sir. +[1525.90 --> 1526.52] I can hear you, sir. +[1526.52 --> 1527.68] Fantastic. +[1528.30 --> 1528.72] All right. +[1528.86 --> 1534.98] So guys, give JJ a warm welcome and all that good stuff in the Twitch chat. +[1535.08 --> 1544.84] For those of you who don't know who this gentleman is, he is the tech guru of Asus who knows all the things about all the Asus. +[1544.84 --> 1551.86] I swear, I swear you could ask him any question about an Asus product, past, present, and probably even future. +[1552.06 --> 1553.32] And he would know the answer. +[1553.78 --> 1556.20] But that third category, he probably couldn't tell you about it. +[1556.20 --> 1557.90] You are extremely nice. +[1557.96 --> 1558.48] I thank you. +[1558.58 --> 1559.06] I thank you. +[1559.16 --> 1560.32] I try my best. +[1560.40 --> 1561.08] I try my best. +[1561.48 --> 1564.88] But that is a very humbling introduction. +[1565.06 --> 1565.56] So thank you. +[1566.16 --> 1566.66] All right. +[1566.76 --> 1574.82] So I think the thing to do here is to invite people on the Twitter boards to go ahead. +[1574.94 --> 1577.10] And we're going to do things a little bit differently this week. +[1577.10 --> 1589.06] Rather than just tweeting at Linus Tech, any questions you have about Asus products, particularly Z97 and H97 motherboards, we want you to use hashtag. +[1589.06 --> 1591.74] And I don't remember what it is anymore. +[1591.74 --> 1595.56] And I can see that that's going to be a problem for me. +[1595.60 --> 1595.74] Okay. +[1595.80 --> 1597.82] So I'm going to invent one right off the bat. +[1598.18 --> 1599.22] So it's going to be hashtag. +[1599.72 --> 1600.16] WAN live. +[1600.82 --> 1601.52] WAN live? +[1601.62 --> 1602.60] I thought it was WAN show live. +[1602.70 --> 1602.90] Sure. +[1603.16 --> 1604.86] Hashtag WAN show live. +[1605.06 --> 1607.34] Go ahead and include that hashtag with your tweet. +[1607.56 --> 1610.58] And we're going to be going through them and finding some good questions for JJ. +[1610.78 --> 1613.42] But in the meantime, I'm going to kick things off. +[1613.48 --> 1614.06] I'm going to go. +[1614.28 --> 1614.54] Okay. +[1614.62 --> 1614.88] Look. +[1615.54 --> 1616.22] Z97. +[1618.10 --> 1624.92] It's no gigantic secret that not a whole lot changed on the Intel side of things. +[1624.92 --> 1633.18] So why don't you give us like a top three reasons why maybe users shouldn't necessarily upgrade from Z87 outright. +[1633.18 --> 1640.60] But for people upgrading to LGA 1150, why would they spend an extra couple bucks for Z97 versus Z87? +[1641.94 --> 1644.12] That's a really good question. +[1644.60 --> 1653.48] And I think it's kind of a tricky question to answer because I think both me and you have, I'd say, like a different, I guess, approach than most people. +[1653.60 --> 1662.44] Because since we see hardware every single generation, right, we kind of might think of it from the bleeding edge where we're going to upgrade from one platform to the next. +[1662.44 --> 1667.82] But a lot of users, like you said, are necessarily sometimes coming over from a platform from two, three, four, five years ago. +[1667.88 --> 1671.98] I mean, we've got people that are still coming over from P45 or X58 or different chipsets. +[1672.28 --> 1681.24] But I think for this generation, you know, our goal, we always try to look at kind of two different perspectives of development, you know, chipset development and then board level development. +[1681.72 --> 1689.04] So every generation, I think we try to put in the effort to put in new functions and features that are going to make things interesting and improve for the user's experience. +[1689.04 --> 1690.64] So I think three things. +[1691.08 --> 1692.00] I'm a big fan. +[1692.00 --> 1703.52] And once again, of everything that we did on the auto tuning side for the motherboards, I think that the new customization abilities that we have for this generation are pretty nuts as far as the granularity and control that you have for dynamic real-time auto overclocking. +[1704.18 --> 1711.12] I'm really digging a lot of the new stuff that we did on the audio implementation, extend, you know, the previous designs that we had. +[1711.54 --> 1713.82] And then I think kind of just total experience. +[1713.98 --> 1720.60] You know, I think most of us, when we go about building a system, we kind of think of building the system in a lot of different ways. +[1720.60 --> 1727.94] Sometimes it's the simplicity of just how smoothly something might work or how kind of something you didn't realize in terms of just enabling like this generation. +[1728.48 --> 1735.76] You know, for us, it's easy to enable XMP, but, you know, we still see based off of market survey data that, you know, 50% of users never enable XMP on a motherboard. +[1735.76 --> 1736.76] Right. +[1736.76 --> 1742.76] So just having a physical switch on the motherboard that now a user can just, you know, flip into the on position, you know. +[1743.12 --> 1746.28] Well, to me, it's something that I would never use in terms of having value for. +[1746.48 --> 1749.98] We definitely know that there's users out there that would go, wow, that just makes sense. +[1750.02 --> 1750.88] And I can just do that. +[1750.96 --> 1756.30] And that gives me, you know, exactly what I'm using for because that's what I paid for in terms of the memory that I bought. +[1756.30 --> 1759.68] So I have a question for you about the physical XMP switch. +[1759.78 --> 1763.70] Is that something that the system integrators were asking for as well? +[1764.34 --> 1768.30] No, actually, no, we didn't get any of that feedback from the system integrators. +[1768.46 --> 1773.22] That was really based purely on the perspective of trying to find a more simplified solution. +[1773.22 --> 1778.56] If you remember last generation, you know, we put in that easy one touch UEFI option for the XMP function. +[1778.56 --> 1778.84] Right. +[1779.12 --> 1788.28] And so this was just kind of the evolution of that, of trying to give you, you know, a very easy way to do it, not only within the UEFI, but a really easy way of doing it on the physical hardware level. +[1788.90 --> 1795.70] So the next implementation will be like a giant red button this big with like a flashing LED behind it. +[1795.96 --> 1796.56] Push this. +[1796.62 --> 1797.36] Yeah, do this. +[1797.58 --> 1798.78] Push this if you have memory. +[1799.42 --> 1806.68] I think the next option is, you know, we're working on like on a micro automaton, a little, you know, guy that will come inside the box and he'll ask you questions. +[1806.78 --> 1807.32] Do you need help? +[1807.32 --> 1808.64] And he'll just do it for you. +[1808.72 --> 1808.98] Exactly. +[1809.08 --> 1814.68] He'll just kind of, you know, come on like your own personal golem and then he'll go into your system and he'll just enable everything for you. +[1814.82 --> 1815.54] You won't do anything. +[1815.64 --> 1819.60] He'll just, you just tell him, I want to do this and this and this and he'll automatically do it for you. +[1819.74 --> 1821.42] Can you create different skins for it? +[1821.50 --> 1821.64] Yeah. +[1821.64 --> 1825.98] So there can be like, there can be like the, like the Cortana, like, you know, digital girl. +[1826.14 --> 1837.30] And then there can be like the, like, remember Mad Mod Mike, that Nvidia brand asset that was like the guy with like a huge backpack and like screwdrivers and stuff. +[1837.32 --> 1843.12] And then I think like a bonus one for someone who buys all the Asus components possible. +[1843.12 --> 1853.44] So only people who have an Asus, like motherboard, graphics card, like a keyboard, mouse, sound card, and then it unlocks like a JJ avatar. +[1854.12 --> 1854.28] Yeah. +[1854.28 --> 1857.02] That would be pretty awesome. +[1857.32 --> 1859.24] You know, actually, it's funny you talk about that. +[1859.36 --> 1869.28] We're, we're going to be hopefully doing in a little bit sometime this quarter, we're going to be releasing these like really cool limited edition, really highly articulated, small ROG robots. +[1869.28 --> 1879.50] So for like our diehard enthusiasts that really love, you know, ROG hardware and Asus hardware, they're going to have the opportunity to be able to pick up these really limited edition, high detail based figures. +[1880.06 --> 1882.30] So, you know, I think that's all just part of the experience, right? +[1882.36 --> 1889.14] You know, all of us as builders, we love dealing with hardware and anything that just makes things interesting and more engaging and adds to the experience is always cool. +[1889.14 --> 1890.88] All right. +[1891.00 --> 1903.02] So why don't I start with a first question from someone on the forum that actually reached out to me very politely and said, look, I'm sorry, I can't tune into the show live, but I really want to know the answer to this. +[1903.88 --> 1912.42] Why did you guys go for an expansion card versus building Thunderbolt into the motherboards that you thought it made sense for? +[1912.42 --> 1934.22] I mean, one of the things that you and I have talked about extensively is the way that Asus tries to build a motherboard according to how they think that user is going to use it down to everything from whether to use just, you know, integrated Intel SATA connectors to implementing a particular brand even of extra SATA connectors. +[1934.48 --> 1937.54] So why didn't you guys go for something like the WS? +[1937.58 --> 1939.76] It was the one real criticism I had of that board. +[1939.76 --> 1942.34] Why didn't you go, OK, look, this is a workstation board. +[1942.50 --> 1944.36] It should have Thunderbolt on it right off the bat. +[1944.90 --> 1944.98] Yeah. +[1945.36 --> 1946.90] Yeah, no, you make a really good point. +[1947.00 --> 1948.70] And that was a really hard decision to make. +[1948.84 --> 1954.00] You know, for us, Thunderbolt is still continuing to be kind of an emerging technology that we're seeing get utilized. +[1954.14 --> 1955.48] And we're heavily involved. +[1955.62 --> 1958.80] You know, I myself, I actually went to two Thunderbolt plug fests this generation. +[1958.94 --> 1963.22] We worked with, I think, over 160 vendors that are making all kinds of Thunderbolt accessories. +[1963.44 --> 1965.00] So we definitely still value it. +[1965.12 --> 1968.84] I mean, compared to any other vendor, no other vendor has more Thunderbolt solutions than us. +[1968.84 --> 1973.98] And I think it just came down to a question of resource, layout consideration, and cost. +[1974.72 --> 1981.60] You know, while there's definitely going to be a segmentation, even within that content creation community, like you talked about for a WS model, that would see value in Thunderbolt. +[1981.76 --> 1985.28] The majority of those users as a whole are not going to be utilizing Thunderbolt. +[1985.38 --> 1992.74] They will be utilizing your classic interconnects, whether they're going to be USB or whether it's going to be actually even gigabit-based connectivity on a local-based network. +[1992.74 --> 1993.34] Yeah. +[1993.34 --> 2002.46] So in that situation, I think we saw the value of let's still give them that ability to be able to have Thunderbolt, right, on the boards, but not necessarily have to have them to pay the premium. +[2002.46 --> 2012.54] Because when you do look at the cost, the BOM cost, so the bill of material cost on Thunderbolt, it is probably within the top three most expensive hardware specs to put on a motherboard. +[2012.82 --> 2014.88] So it's not like a small add-on cost. +[2015.04 --> 2018.24] Sometimes there are some stuff that it's a really marginal cost to implement on the board. +[2018.66 --> 2023.96] So it's a pretty big increase in terms of impacting the MSRP, so the final retail price of the motherboard. +[2023.96 --> 2026.98] Plus there is physical space layout considerations. +[2027.68 --> 2035.18] So this Generation WS, actually, we did incorporate the same type of isolated audio design that we had started to implement on the ROG series. +[2035.52 --> 2047.74] So that kind of implementation, balancing all that thing out in terms of space and real estate and everything else out, it was just kind of a managed kind of implementation where we said, okay, you know, it probably makes sense, but we still have to balance everything out. +[2047.74 --> 2056.44] And even little things like you wouldn't keep in mind, like the Thunderbolt board still has 1394, so it's our only active Z97 SKU that actually has 1394. +[2056.86 --> 2057.72] I did notice that. +[2057.98 --> 2060.64] Because we still actually have users in that content creation community. +[2060.76 --> 2062.70] They've made really big investment for Firewire. +[2062.86 --> 2065.84] And actually the usage model is still actually a little bit higher than Thunderbolt. +[2066.14 --> 2072.68] We probably see that by the end of this year, finally eclipsing that Thunderbolt will even be higher than the existing base of 1394. +[2072.94 --> 2075.28] But that 1394 chip takes up space, right? +[2075.28 --> 2078.54] So if we probably maybe would have taken that out, could have probably maybe offset it. +[2078.64 --> 2081.26] So it just literally comes down to a balance factor. +[2081.42 --> 2085.34] You know, we'd love to put everything that we could on there, but that's kind of the best compromise. +[2085.58 --> 2091.72] But the cool thing about it is, you know, Thunderbolt across, what, like 16 SKUs, and all you got to do is just drop in the card, right? +[2092.96 --> 2093.52] All right. +[2093.54 --> 2095.22] I can see why you made the compromise. +[2095.60 --> 2099.58] Now, here's something that I wish everyone would quit compromising on. +[2099.58 --> 2102.56] And you can go, like, let's call this, like, off the record. +[2102.70 --> 2103.38] Your opinion. +[2103.38 --> 2105.70] I will do my best. +[2106.02 --> 2110.80] Looking into the crystal ball, when are we going to finally see 10 gigabit Ethernet? +[2110.86 --> 2113.50] I've seen some of the guys in Twitch chat talking about 10 gig. +[2113.62 --> 2120.22] Because right now, no one seems to be willing to just do this and make it a consumer technology. +[2120.36 --> 2126.60] I think Netgear has, like, one 8-port switch on Newegg that's still hundreds of dollars. +[2126.60 --> 2131.96] And you can buy NIC cards for in the $200 to $300 range. +[2132.68 --> 2135.68] The cabling itself has caught up at this point. +[2135.78 --> 2138.44] So you can get Cat 6A cable for a reasonable price. +[2139.06 --> 2143.96] How much, legitimately, like, if you had to just guess, and you can tell me the number is probably wrong. +[2144.02 --> 2144.72] You can disclaim it. +[2144.78 --> 2145.68] This number is wrong. +[2145.68 --> 2146.70] But if I, no, no, no, no. +[2147.34 --> 2151.08] How much would a 10 gigabit implementation on a motherboard cost? +[2151.20 --> 2152.68] And what's the problem right now? +[2152.80 --> 2153.54] Why can't we do it? +[2154.28 --> 2157.00] It really comes down to just, it's really, it's a cost factor. +[2157.10 --> 2158.06] It's totally possible. +[2158.40 --> 2159.44] We could entirely do it. +[2159.44 --> 2169.74] And, you know, while there is stuff that I can't talk about as far as on the current chipset portfolio, you can imagine that there's things coming down the pipeline later on where that could be a possibility of something that you would want to be incorporated. +[2170.10 --> 2180.18] So we are evaluating looking at 10 gig e-solutions on base platforms, but more probably in the server and workstation demographic than we would see in the traditional kind of, like, Z97. +[2180.18 --> 2182.68] So the performance kind of market space. +[2182.68 --> 2190.68] But from a cost standpoint, you're talking that you could easily take a motherboard that might, let's say, traditionally be, let's say, like a $250 motherboard, $300 motherboard. +[2190.84 --> 2194.26] So that's a relatively high-end enthusiast Z97-based board. +[2194.50 --> 2199.22] And you could add an MSRP of beyond $200 to be able to add 10 gig e. +[2199.54 --> 2202.64] So that's a huge cost increase to the consumer. +[2202.80 --> 2208.22] You know, I'm sure, like, foreign people would go, this is crazy, $200 more, right? +[2208.22 --> 2215.86] Of course, for the users that know the benefit of what they would be able to do in leveraging a 10 gig e-solution, they would appreciate that. +[2215.94 --> 2220.70] And they would also look at the cost of going, hey, maybe an add-in card is at least maybe $350. +[2221.32 --> 2225.62] So having to pay $200 and having it integrated, I'm ready to do that. +[2226.26 --> 2229.66] But we're looking at it actually, I think, in a more complete rollout strategy. +[2229.86 --> 2234.56] You know, we're evaluating actually 10 gig e, not just for our motherboards, but also for our entire networking division. +[2234.56 --> 2236.44] So definitely stay tuned. +[2236.58 --> 2238.94] You know, you're going to see more of that coming down the pipeline from us. +[2239.36 --> 2241.62] But, you know, it really just comes down to cost. +[2241.80 --> 2245.14] If users say, hey, we're willing to take on the cost, then we can do it. +[2245.34 --> 2248.88] This same stuff even rolls into, like, mini-ITX for, like, really high-end. +[2249.18 --> 2255.52] We've done some really crazy, interesting designs for X79 and trying to do an ultra-small form factor X79 mini-ITX. +[2255.94 --> 2261.88] And I'm not going to say it's impossible because we've made some really interesting design choices to be able to do something like that. +[2261.88 --> 2263.94] And then I have people tell me, oh, we'll do it. +[2263.94 --> 2271.72] But then there's always that difference between what's the real market reality and what's the niche reality of people saying, oh, we'll buy this, right? +[2272.66 --> 2272.88] Yeah. +[2273.02 --> 2281.30] Because, you know, for us to kick off a board, you know, you're at least talking six to eight months development time, a high amount of R&D costs, bandwidth and resource and stuff like that. +[2281.44 --> 2283.32] And so I could probably make it. +[2283.38 --> 2285.14] I could make an X79 mini-ITX. +[2285.18 --> 2286.88] It could be really interesting as far as the way it worked. +[2287.12 --> 2290.46] But would you really be willing to pay, you know, $450, $500 for that board? +[2290.46 --> 2290.90] Yeah. +[2291.90 --> 2292.22] Ah. +[2292.68 --> 2294.86] And that would be a tough pill to swallow. +[2295.04 --> 2306.68] I mean, I could see an X79-ITX board being worth a small premium, you know, maybe $250, $275 for, you know, let's call it like a deluxe class board. +[2306.84 --> 2312.82] You know, something pretty equivalent to, you know, a Z97 or a Z87-ITX board. +[2312.82 --> 2322.62] But if you started to tell me it's $400, $500, that's a really tough pill to swallow, especially when you factor in that you're going to need some other pretty specialized hardware to even build that rig. +[2323.90 --> 2329.44] You know, you're going to want, Silverstone is, I think, the only one that I'm aware of with an 80-plus gold power supply. +[2329.64 --> 2333.18] That's a 450-watt unit that's an SFX power supply. +[2333.18 --> 2336.36] So this is a very special machine at this point. +[2336.72 --> 2342.62] And you think about, like, how many times, guys, viewers, think about how many times on a forum you've seen a machine that special. +[2343.54 --> 2344.98] How many times have you seen that power supply? +[2346.32 --> 2346.68] Yeah. +[2346.68 --> 2351.26] And I think the other thing, too, is, you know, I mean, we're okay making those type of advancements. +[2351.36 --> 2360.28] I mean, if you look at our history, we're not necessarily afraid to buck the trend and sometimes put on these really specialized technologies that roll out over time to other products over time. +[2360.94 --> 2363.12] You know, because we have users that realize that. +[2363.20 --> 2364.26] And that's part of the community. +[2364.40 --> 2369.22] One of the really cool things about the PCDIY community is in itself that people will embrace the technology. +[2369.32 --> 2370.02] They'll pay a premium. +[2370.02 --> 2380.94] And while not everybody benefits from it right away, actually, that's the really cool thing is that as products scale over time, you know, that initial investment actually does scale out to more products over time. +[2381.64 --> 2387.52] You know, so as long as you can get enough of those people to be supportive of that, then you can see really cool and innovative product like that. +[2387.56 --> 2388.16] It just depends. +[2388.26 --> 2390.52] Do we really have enough people for these type of solutions? +[2390.62 --> 2395.84] In the same way I get every day, I get people asking me, I want high-performance AM3 mini ITX, right? +[2396.40 --> 2396.64] Yeah. +[2396.72 --> 2397.58] So stuff like that. +[2397.58 --> 2397.96] Yeah. +[2398.28 --> 2398.64] Okay. +[2398.64 --> 2405.44] Now, leading into investing in the future and it paying off for everyone, I think this is a great discussion topic. +[2405.56 --> 2408.26] And don't worry, JJ, I'll let you talk about Z97 at some point. +[2408.58 --> 2409.24] Oh, no worries, man. +[2409.82 --> 2413.26] Let's talk PG278Q ROG Swift. +[2413.44 --> 2414.42] You had to do it, right? +[2414.50 --> 2416.36] You just had to ask about it, right? +[2416.40 --> 2416.62] Yeah. +[2416.74 --> 2417.76] But I got more. +[2417.98 --> 2425.46] Oh, it gets more complicated than that because I'm going to also throw at you the Acer announcement today of their 4K G-Sync monitor. +[2425.46 --> 2437.76] And then I'm going to throw this at you again and I'm going to go, is this all just irrelevant with the VESA 1.2a standard coming out supporting AMD's FreeSync or ActiveSync? +[2437.76 --> 2439.92] Like, is G-Sync even relevant anymore? +[2440.36 --> 2442.50] What do you – again, real thoughts. +[2442.72 --> 2444.00] Like, what do you think? +[2444.22 --> 2446.06] You don't even have to give a concrete answer here. +[2446.16 --> 2446.28] Yeah. +[2446.28 --> 2448.42] So you make a lot of really good points. +[2448.54 --> 2454.86] So I think first of all, if we just tackle the first point in terms of G-Sync's relevancy, it's entirely relevant. +[2455.02 --> 2461.46] The first and foremost reason is because while you haven't seen physical MP product, it's already a technology that's proven. +[2461.62 --> 2462.92] It's in integrator solutions. +[2463.14 --> 2466.84] Right now, they're working on it and they're finalizing the products to come to the market. +[2466.84 --> 2478.32] So this is a big difference than, let's say, something a ratified specification or ratified standard that's coming into its play and then still has to be actually proven in real design and implementation. +[2479.26 --> 2479.68] I see. +[2479.68 --> 2491.86] Regardless of whether something is a physical implementation or a firmware layer specification or something that occurs on a much more minor level that's purely on a software basis, these also things have to be proven in the real world. +[2492.28 --> 2507.28] And I can tell you the learning curve just alone for our modern development team along with NVIDIA at actually taking what they thought was a monitor kind of driving circuit board and then having to approach that in the real world were two entirely different things. +[2507.28 --> 2515.50] We had to consider things that NVIDIA hadn't factored in, like color calibration profile support, which is normally part of, let's say, the electronics package in a monitor. +[2515.74 --> 2524.90] But we had to work with their team to be able to actually integrate the ability to have color controls because that wasn't something that was inherently part of the FPGA package because NVIDIA was thinking from a different perspective. +[2525.46 --> 2527.48] So they went gaming. +[2528.52 --> 2537.18] It's funny because NVIDIA sometimes gets criticized for being, you know, oh, you guys are completely focused on grid or you're completely focused on mobile. +[2537.60 --> 2543.62] But then they go and they bring something like G-Sync to market and they literally haven't even thought about it beyond, yeah, gaming. +[2544.14 --> 2544.32] Yeah. +[2544.46 --> 2547.06] And I mean, that's, you know, the reality of every company. +[2547.18 --> 2552.74] I mean, sometimes you run up against, you know, experience and, you know, just your internal kind of perspective. +[2552.98 --> 2553.38] Right. +[2553.40 --> 2557.38] And that's where it's a balance that they've worked with us to leverage our experience in monitor design. +[2557.46 --> 2560.78] And we're leveraging their experience at that IC-based design in that package. +[2560.78 --> 2561.06] Right. +[2561.30 --> 2562.30] For what they're doing there. +[2562.42 --> 2566.24] So I think that still in that aspect, there's still a lot of logic. +[2566.24 --> 2579.68] And there's a lot of other things that NVIDIA is doing within the FPGA and the overall IP that they're developing behind G-Sync that in the long term, not just right now, but what you're going to be able to do over time with it, actually continues to paint the purpose of having a specialized IC. +[2579.86 --> 2581.34] Now, I love the aspect. +[2581.50 --> 2585.20] And ASUS, as you know, we're not biased to any vendor. +[2585.34 --> 2585.44] Right. +[2585.48 --> 2586.64] We produce AMD solutions. +[2586.76 --> 2587.50] We produce NVIDIA. +[2587.60 --> 2588.62] We produce Intel chipsets. +[2588.62 --> 2589.98] And we produce AMD chipsets. +[2589.98 --> 2594.12] So from our perspective, we want to be able to give the consumers the most choice possible. +[2594.90 --> 2595.26] Right. +[2595.46 --> 2604.86] So, you know, in that perspective, right, you know, what you're seeing with the new Visa update, you're going to have more flexibility, have a more open ecosystem. +[2604.86 --> 2605.96] So that's great as well. +[2606.10 --> 2610.66] But I think all of us at the end of the day, what we care first and foremost about is how something works. +[2610.66 --> 2622.10] Even if it's a proprietary solution, if it works really, really, really, really well and there's no issues with it, I'm okay with it being proprietary if it works outstanding and it doesn't have any bugs and it doesn't have issues and it just works. +[2622.28 --> 2622.40] Right. +[2622.56 --> 2629.38] I mean, that's a proven example of, you know, you're going to get a lot of people that they say, hey, we wish you gave more Linux support. +[2629.38 --> 2637.32] Well, it's really hard to have Linux support from a chipset development when you have 20 different distros that all have their different kernels and they all have to be compiled differently. +[2637.50 --> 2637.62] Right. +[2637.70 --> 2642.08] When you then tell the chipset company, hey, you can design a driver for Windows and it's just one platform. +[2642.40 --> 2642.80] Right. +[2642.88 --> 2644.92] So it's very much kind of that same thing. +[2644.98 --> 2647.88] There's a lot of things to consider in that. +[2648.28 --> 2649.94] So I think G-Sync is still relevant. +[2650.36 --> 2656.38] I still think we're going to totally embrace and look at how we can incorporate the updated Visa spec in monitors over time. +[2656.38 --> 2670.52] And then from there, you know, the 4K proposition, as far as that goes into it, I think everybody's interested to continue to see just improved gaming performance on all types of monitors, regardless of whether it's 4K, whether it's going to be new TNN, whether it's going to be IPS. +[2670.64 --> 2671.30] I don't think it matters. +[2671.40 --> 2675.96] I think everybody just wants to continue to see improved and evolved monitor type designs. +[2676.16 --> 2677.06] So I give kudos. +[2677.32 --> 2680.36] Hey, you know, Acer's done an interesting design there with the 4K. +[2680.72 --> 2684.82] I think for us still, as you guys know, 4K is a really interesting technology. +[2684.82 --> 2687.58] I mean, we're launching our right now, our brand new PB monitor. +[2687.76 --> 2689.22] It's going to be really price aggressive. +[2689.44 --> 2690.06] I know. I have one. +[2690.76 --> 2691.70] There you go. Right. +[2691.78 --> 2693.54] So, you know, we're all behind that. +[2693.70 --> 2699.98] But, you know, to every single one of these, right, when you factor in a monitor, there's so much more to consider than just a monitor. +[2700.10 --> 2702.34] Right. It's, you know, the games that you're playing. +[2702.56 --> 2704.94] It's the GPUs that you're going to be running in the system. +[2705.30 --> 2706.84] So there's a lot of different perspectives. +[2707.14 --> 2711.26] So there's not going to be ever one monitor that rules them all, I think, in that perspective. +[2711.42 --> 2711.60] Right. +[2711.98 --> 2713.02] You can maybe get close. +[2713.02 --> 2716.30] Maybe we could get pretty close to having some right specs to stuff. +[2716.44 --> 2718.42] But a lot of this is driven by so many different things. +[2718.52 --> 2723.86] So for us, we're going to continue to embrace, I think, all the technologies on the market and listen to you guys at what you guys want. +[2724.72 --> 2725.30] All right. +[2725.34 --> 2728.24] Now, I have another question from Omid. +[2728.24 --> 2743.48] Now, given that Intel didn't change much going from Z87 to Z97, and I think you'd be hard-pressed to find, like, you know, a massive change log from the ASUS side, given that it wasn't really necessary. +[2743.48 --> 2752.08] Why are some reviewers finding they're getting better overclocking results and better temps on Z97 on the same Haswell chips? +[2752.08 --> 2756.46] You know, part of this is sometimes actually time differential. +[2756.92 --> 2759.38] There's changes in the overall what's called MEI. +[2759.94 --> 2760.82] It's really interesting. +[2760.98 --> 2761.66] We're seeing some of this. +[2761.72 --> 2768.90] Some of this stuff we're asking reviewers to go back and evaluate because in our internal analysis, it's pretty much actually par, par for par. +[2768.90 --> 2773.40] But there are some technical implementations that sometimes actually reviewers don't fully evaluate. +[2773.78 --> 2789.36] One of the really things that's interesting with the fiber, so that integrated voltage regulator, and then what's called your VCC in as far as voltage, is that the voltage that you see defined within something like CPU-Z is not actually your real necessarily voltage. +[2789.60 --> 2792.62] That's the voltage that's actually being communicated by the fiber. +[2792.62 --> 2799.78] But the voltage or the VCC input can actually be lower than that voltage, and then based on efficiency, you can have a different measurement. +[2800.26 --> 2809.64] So two boards could actually be effectively giving you the same voltage but can achieve it in different ways if, let's say, one has a lower VCC in and one has a higher VCC in. +[2810.14 --> 2812.66] So that can account actually for temperature differential. +[2812.66 --> 2833.06] The other thing is that over time, if let's say they first tested some boards like six months ago, and then new tuning has come out where they make optimizations to actually load policies, and they make changes to actually different parts of the UEFI that change different actually conditioning parameters, whether it's the VRM efficiency or different parameter parameters, all those things can sometimes offset a little bit of numbers. +[2833.06 --> 2846.64] But I can tell you from our internal analysis overall, users should generally, if you take a 4770K, 4670K between a Z87 platform and then a Z97 platform, the actual OCA experience is pretty much linear. +[2846.84 --> 2847.62] It's the same. +[2847.70 --> 2851.70] You're not getting a diminished experience, and you're not getting actually a better experience. +[2851.80 --> 2853.56] It's the same clocking experience. +[2853.90 --> 2860.42] For our boards, we do have a revised DRAM topology, so DRAM topology scaling is even a little bit better, so you can even get higher. +[2860.42 --> 2866.02] But to real-world users, it's not really relevant because most users are maybe going up to 2130 to 2400. +[2866.44 --> 2870.64] So regardless that we can do higher memory dividers, it doesn't really impact the real user. +[2871.24 --> 2888.20] So most of this really just comes down to difference in sometimes the underlying code base, changes in, let's say, voltage rules and policies that sometimes the viewers aren't always, let's say, always understanding of or not maybe fully accounting for because they might be looking for just one numerical value versus another numerical value. +[2888.98 --> 2889.38] Yep. +[2889.38 --> 2890.74] All right. +[2890.88 --> 2892.82] So I've got another one for you. +[2892.82 --> 2916.82] I guess along the lines of Z87 to Z97 changes again, because I did promise I'd give you an opportunity to cover that with us here, is what are the biggest changes between, or the biggest differences that you guys have aimed to deliver here with the Z97 boards, whether it's compared to what the competition's doing, and you don't have to name any names, or whether it's compared to the last generation Z87 implementations. +[2916.82 --> 2922.94] Well, you know, for us, I mean, you know, we try to, we're always in the game of pushing the envelope, right? +[2922.94 --> 2928.80] We're always going to try to look at what the experience is, and can we make those experiences better, regardless of what it is. +[2929.80 --> 2943.80] You know, I think probably the biggest ones that we did that they might seem small, but when you really kind of look at them in the bigger picture, they were really hard to implement, but they really give a whole nother level of experience, are going to be really in the auto-tune technologies, in the sound, and with the fan controls. +[2943.80 --> 2948.48] But, I mean, there's been improvements to every single aspect, but, you know, fan control stuff is pretty awesome, right? +[2948.56 --> 2954.68] The last previous generations, we'd always talked about having that full fan header control for every single header, you know, 3-pin and 4-pin support. +[2954.88 --> 2966.46] But this year, having the ability to go to every single header and manually define whether it's a PWM or DC-based control is awesome, because now that gives you the ability that if you want to put PWM splitters on there, +[2966.46 --> 2978.88] you want to get like a Source 530 and have those three front intake fans all be regulated by one chassis fan header all in the same signal, bam, power those fans from the PSU, get them all tuned with the same actual fan curve, and you're rocking and rolling, right? +[2978.90 --> 2985.62] That's sweet, because it just adds a whole nother level of granularity and control how you set up your airflow and you set up your experience. +[2986.42 --> 2994.20] And you know what's funny is the thing that really blew me away about the new fan control is one that you didn't even mention, +[2994.20 --> 3000.38] and that's the fact that it's within the UEFI now, and I can define all those curves in basic mode. +[3000.66 --> 3004.14] I click one thing, and I go, yep, header by header. +[3004.46 --> 3005.64] Here's the curve I want. +[3005.72 --> 3006.98] I want it on a predefined curve. +[3007.06 --> 3011.28] I want to do my own manual curve, because, again, real talk time. +[3011.38 --> 3012.20] This is a WAN show. +[3012.46 --> 3012.94] We're casual. +[3013.30 --> 3015.04] I don't really like AI Suite very much. +[3015.46 --> 3020.52] It has been a big problem for me at various times throughout its history, +[3020.52 --> 3024.16] and while I haven't tried it in the last probably three to six months, +[3025.22 --> 3029.06] I've tried it fairly recently enough that I just am not a huge fan. +[3029.28 --> 3033.90] Whereas UEFI implementation of something like that, wow, what a godsend, +[3034.00 --> 3038.34] because now I can really take advantage of that feature in a way that is bulletproof. +[3038.62 --> 3042.48] And one thing to not shoot at AI Suite, despite I don't use it either, +[3042.88 --> 3046.10] is that getting away from the software implementation is just nice anyways, +[3046.10 --> 3049.06] because if you reformat your computer or change out a drive or do whatever, +[3049.40 --> 3052.54] that's less that you have to think about when you're setting everything back up again. +[3052.76 --> 3052.88] Yeah. +[3053.02 --> 3055.58] Yeah, I think that applies more to you guys as reviewers, right? +[3055.62 --> 3059.88] Most users, you know, they talk about actually how long they can try to keep rolling over their OS. +[3060.18 --> 3063.04] We see so many people take OSes from one chipset to another chipset, +[3063.20 --> 3064.54] and they don't ever even reinstall. +[3065.50 --> 3068.02] You know, but I guess that'll be my challenge is to win you over, +[3068.12 --> 3070.98] because, you know, that's one thing that we work really hard on is the software suite. +[3071.10 --> 3072.84] But, you know, that is a good example. +[3072.84 --> 3076.92] You know, we had to work really hard on actually putting in that full graphical fan turf, +[3077.26 --> 3078.66] the calibration and all that stuff. +[3078.88 --> 3080.60] And literally, it's redundant. +[3080.86 --> 3084.66] We spent time and effort to do something that we had already done two years before, +[3084.66 --> 3088.76] but we did it just to be able to give more of our base of users more accessibility. +[3089.06 --> 3093.16] So whether it's guys that, for whatever reason, don't want to embrace the software, +[3093.64 --> 3095.40] well, then we can give it to you in another direction, +[3095.40 --> 3097.44] and you can still get that same experience. +[3097.92 --> 3100.12] And then you added on, you know, rounding that all out, +[3100.12 --> 3102.34] giving you the temperature input control per header. +[3102.34 --> 3104.54] I mean, that's awesome, right, that you can go in and say, +[3104.64 --> 3108.46] hey, my front intake fan should not have to respond to my CPU, right? +[3108.86 --> 3110.56] Why can't that respond to my motherboard? +[3110.76 --> 3112.38] Why can't that respond to my PCH? +[3112.74 --> 3114.82] Why can't that respond to another temperature input? +[3115.90 --> 3118.52] So, you know, and I think the biggest part, you know, +[3118.54 --> 3121.12] is a lot of time we get pigeonheld as being the premium vendor, +[3121.24 --> 3122.14] the more expensive vendor. +[3122.58 --> 3124.42] Look at the Z97-8. +[3124.58 --> 3127.60] Again, there is not a better value proposition board, in my opinion. +[3128.26 --> 3131.28] $140 motherboard that has that class of fan controls, +[3131.28 --> 3134.32] you know, I don't want to, you know, bring competitors into it. +[3134.36 --> 3135.94] You know, guys, you know me long enough. +[3136.04 --> 3139.06] I'm not that kind of guy that I bash on, you know, the other guys. +[3139.46 --> 3143.28] But Gigabyte, ASRock, MSI, none of them... +[3143.28 --> 3144.10] But everyone. +[3144.76 --> 3145.52] Everyone else. +[3146.32 --> 3147.22] None of them have that. +[3147.24 --> 3148.96] I'm going to just combo punch the entire team right now. +[3149.18 --> 3152.02] Their highest-end motherboard doesn't have that fan control +[3152.02 --> 3153.60] that I have on a $140 motherboard. +[3153.86 --> 3154.98] When you talk about value, +[3155.48 --> 3157.76] I don't know how much it gets better than that from a value proposition. +[3157.76 --> 3158.56] You know what? +[3158.62 --> 3162.06] The funny thing about you saying that is I can imagine already. +[3162.24 --> 3163.90] I mean, there's a delay on the Twitch stream, +[3164.16 --> 3167.54] but I can already imagine what's going to happen in about 20 seconds +[3167.54 --> 3169.48] where people are going to say, +[3169.80 --> 3171.62] oh, I don't care about that fan control. +[3171.72 --> 3172.94] That doesn't have a value for me. +[3173.00 --> 3173.78] I don't really care. +[3173.92 --> 3176.24] I like all my fans running at 100% or whatever else. +[3176.52 --> 3179.68] But my response to that is, you know what? +[3179.72 --> 3182.82] There are some people who care a whole lot about that, +[3182.82 --> 3188.18] and two of them sitting in this room have spent over $150 +[3188.18 --> 3192.74] on a software fan controller that basically... +[3192.74 --> 3193.46] Hardware fan controller. +[3193.58 --> 3193.80] Sorry. +[3193.98 --> 3196.98] Hardware fan controller that we have to configure through software +[3196.98 --> 3199.40] that's much flakier than AI Suite has ever been. +[3199.46 --> 3199.86] Oh, a lot worse. +[3200.42 --> 3204.08] Just to get that functionality that you guys are now including on a board +[3204.08 --> 3207.28] that costs less than what we paid for an M3 T-balancer. +[3207.52 --> 3210.04] So someone out there appreciates it, +[3210.04 --> 3214.08] even if not everybody does, and it is a definite value add. +[3214.20 --> 3216.60] Even if it's possibly the only two people in Canada. +[3216.92 --> 3217.26] Well, no. +[3218.02 --> 3218.82] There's definitely... +[3218.82 --> 3221.64] I mean, we know for sure that it's a lot more people than just you guys. +[3222.22 --> 3223.74] You know, it's just the bigger thing is sometimes +[3223.74 --> 3226.38] just edifying people and helping them understand this. +[3226.52 --> 3227.20] And it's hard. +[3227.36 --> 3228.56] You know, we talked about this last time. +[3228.78 --> 3231.64] This is not an easy game to be in when there's so many features +[3231.64 --> 3234.70] and there's so many functions to be cognizant and to be aware of. +[3234.76 --> 3235.74] But, you know, we work on it. +[3235.86 --> 3238.16] But, you know, I think, like I said, the fan controls, +[3238.16 --> 3239.76] I think the audio tuning stuff is awesome. +[3239.76 --> 3244.22] I mean, this generation, you having the ability to do target temperature-based overclocking +[3244.22 --> 3248.14] so that if you want to have the overclock be limited to 70C or 80C +[3248.14 --> 3251.72] and it's only going to do it to that, you know, having it be frequency-based, +[3251.98 --> 3256.00] having the app tuning stuff right where you can conditionally profile your application +[3256.00 --> 3259.00] to a specific overclock and have that dynamically adjust things +[3259.00 --> 3260.72] like network prioritization or audio stuff. +[3260.82 --> 3262.22] I mean, I think crazy stuff. +[3262.30 --> 3264.96] If you start to really evaluate some of these functions and features, +[3265.00 --> 3267.54] it's kind of crazy that you're getting this level of control. +[3267.54 --> 3269.44] And while you guys might not be using the software, +[3269.90 --> 3273.06] to make this end user available, the power and class of this functionality, +[3273.40 --> 3276.48] I don't think people thought, you know, especially three years ago, four years ago, +[3276.78 --> 3278.92] every year people say, yeah, there's not more that you can do. +[3279.40 --> 3280.60] It's all over. +[3280.74 --> 3282.84] There's no more innovation that can be done. +[3282.94 --> 3284.24] And then you do stuff like this and people go, +[3284.46 --> 3287.34] how come this hasn't been on a motherboard for the last five years? +[3287.86 --> 3288.06] Right? +[3288.06 --> 3291.84] And the funny thing is, even I find myself doing it sometimes, +[3292.00 --> 3296.24] where I'll be using all the latest stuff, because that's what I generally use. +[3297.28 --> 3301.92] And then, well, no, really, though, because whenever we're evaluating something, +[3302.02 --> 3304.38] we don't benchmark whatever is five years old. +[3304.98 --> 3305.52] Yeah, I've had it before. +[3305.78 --> 3307.24] Yeah, but it doesn't happen very often. +[3307.36 --> 3308.44] But that's exactly it. +[3308.44 --> 3323.28] And I was like, oh, yeah, it's got like a dual core, +[3323.48 --> 3326.42] so it's relatively low, you know, power consumption or whatever, +[3326.58 --> 3327.84] also relatively low performance, +[3327.94 --> 3330.34] so I don't mind tying it up in that box just to try it out. +[3330.82 --> 3335.06] And I was blown away by just all the crap it didn't have. +[3335.06 --> 3340.56] Even though I didn't feel like between age 55 and now, +[3340.70 --> 3344.22] I didn't really feel like there was any kind of huge generational improvement in features, +[3344.68 --> 3346.94] I was just like, oh, this thing doesn't have anything. +[3347.06 --> 3348.50] It doesn't have onboard buttons. +[3348.68 --> 3349.74] It doesn't have like... +[3349.74 --> 3354.08] Going back to those classic old school blue screen Phoenix BIOS setups. +[3354.20 --> 3354.58] I know. +[3354.76 --> 3357.30] It's like, oh, wow, yeah, this has been a while, actually. +[3358.14 --> 3360.48] And that's actually, it's perfect that you bring that up, +[3360.52 --> 3363.76] because that's highlighting back to your, I think, your very first question, right? +[3363.76 --> 3366.22] Or maybe like your second one about people upgrading. +[3366.62 --> 3368.84] This is where I think it's sometimes hard, as you guys, reviewers, +[3369.02 --> 3373.12] is that the value proposition, sometimes you kind of go this meh mentality, right? +[3373.18 --> 3374.54] When a new chipset comes out, +[3374.60 --> 3377.10] because you guys are maybe looking at it right from the previous one. +[3377.24 --> 3380.54] But I think that we've done a whole lot to improve from Z87 to Z97. +[3380.94 --> 3382.76] But it is also really important to remember, +[3382.88 --> 3384.92] I mean, you guys have a really, really great community. +[3385.26 --> 3388.36] And so you guys know about the systems that these users have. +[3388.36 --> 3392.08] But, you know, imagine somebody right now coming over from an X58 platform +[3392.08 --> 3395.10] to just like our Dash A or our Pro motherboard, +[3395.58 --> 3399.08] and everything that they're getting just on the board level, right? +[3399.18 --> 3401.14] Let's not forget the things that are chipset derived, +[3401.40 --> 3403.00] but just on the board functionality level, +[3403.16 --> 3407.22] there's an insane amount of stuff that they totally just are not even remotely near +[3407.22 --> 3409.96] coming over from that chipset to this chipset. +[3409.96 --> 3415.98] All right, so JJ, this is a question from Louis A. Moon, +[3416.56 --> 3419.10] and I tend to agree with him. +[3419.88 --> 3423.76] Why don't you use right-angle USB 3 connectors? +[3424.90 --> 3428.02] So if you actually notice, we do use it on the Sabretooth series, +[3428.14 --> 3430.78] and we've actually done it now for, I think, three generations. +[3431.80 --> 3436.00] But we don't do it as a whole because we still see actually chassis compatibility issues. +[3436.00 --> 3440.50] So I think really the only company that's really kind of gung-ho about it is EBGA. +[3441.66 --> 3446.60] And we've, like I said, we just don't do it because we still see enough issues with that. +[3446.68 --> 3450.56] There are some chassis where the actual space, if you were to right-angle that cable, +[3450.76 --> 3453.20] it actually will obstruct into the hard drive cage. +[3453.34 --> 3455.60] So it's a bit tight in that spacing. +[3455.72 --> 3459.54] And as you know, that USB 3 header, it's a fat, blocky header, +[3459.64 --> 3462.38] and it's really hard to deal with in terms of that. +[3462.38 --> 3468.64] And what we're actually, I think, playing around with more is that we're trying to develop kind of like a USB 3Q connector +[3468.64 --> 3471.12] so that you could actually put that in, +[3471.42 --> 3478.04] and it'll have actually a flexible cable that you could then run through your routing holes in your chassis. +[3478.56 --> 3482.04] The tricky thing about that is that there's a cost. +[3482.68 --> 3486.60] So you actually have to pay a royalty cost every time you do a USB 3 spec. +[3486.60 --> 3494.88] This is why a lot of the chassis, if you notice, there's like a really big drop-off between entry-level chassis having front USB 3 +[3494.88 --> 3497.12] and then all of them having USB 2, right? +[3497.40 --> 3501.74] And you saw like this weird area where there was like stuff from NZXT or Cooler Master, these other ones, +[3501.88 --> 3504.90] where they only have like one front USB 3. +[3505.18 --> 3505.52] Yeah. +[3505.74 --> 3507.20] That's because the cost. +[3507.66 --> 3509.96] So they charge you for this USB 3 header. +[3509.96 --> 3516.74] So, you know, we're looking at trying to do that, but then we would have to pay the cost for putting the adapter and do all that stuff. +[3517.20 --> 3523.52] But that's really what it comes down to is it's literally right now that if we saw more chassis, +[3523.94 --> 3529.44] now the argument could be said, well, you know, if we do it maybe on higher-end boards, maybe like pro and above, +[3529.58 --> 3535.50] it's probably going to go into a chassis where there's more than enough space between where the board sits and where the hard drive keys are. +[3535.72 --> 3536.94] But you can't always count on that. +[3536.94 --> 3537.26] Right. +[3537.48 --> 3537.88] Yeah. +[3537.88 --> 3541.38] But that's the hard part, right, is that we kind of have to balance that out. +[3541.82 --> 3544.94] So I think for me, I'd rather do kind of the Q connector kind of thing. +[3545.00 --> 3546.34] I think people would be okay with that. +[3547.02 --> 3553.14] So I think that's probably the direction we're moving closer towards than seeing the USB 3 header actually go right angle. +[3553.32 --> 3559.76] And there is also a little bit, there is a little bit of actually signal integrity issues that when you turn it actually to the right angle, +[3560.42 --> 3564.08] that you can actually change a little bit of some of the layout topology and stuff like that. +[3564.08 --> 3567.60] And since we don't want to have to go rework the entire board from that perspective, +[3568.10 --> 3571.22] you know, it makes a little bit more sense to save the work that we've already done. +[3571.22 --> 3572.44] Okay. +[3572.44 --> 3574.66] So let's talk Devil's Canyon. +[3575.22 --> 3580.80] Are we going to see, I mean, I already know the answer to this, but this is a question from Fabian. +[3581.38 --> 3586.44] Are we going to see Devil's Canyon CPUs work on your Z97 boards? +[3586.54 --> 3589.44] Are we going to see them work on your Z87 boards? +[3589.44 --> 3592.02] So this is a tricky topic. +[3592.52 --> 3596.14] So I'll give you guys as much information as I can on this point. +[3596.28 --> 3596.38] Sure. +[3597.46 --> 3601.44] Intel requires what's called MEI compliance for certain CPUs. +[3602.36 --> 3605.16] So there is, you guys kind of know the option ROM, right? +[3605.18 --> 3609.30] The option ROM on a serial ATA controller, like on the Intel motherboards, right? +[3609.32 --> 3611.32] So that's like the firmware for the SATA controller. +[3611.50 --> 3614.60] And sometimes when new chipsets come out, there's actually new option ROM, right? +[3614.90 --> 3615.54] Well, the same thing. +[3615.54 --> 3620.12] When a new chipset comes out, there's new MEI firmware generally corresponding to that CPU. +[3620.74 --> 3627.88] So technically to support the new Devil's Canyon CPUs, you have to, excuse me, you have to be running the new MEI firmware. +[3628.04 --> 3630.28] So I believe it's 9.1 MEI firmware. +[3630.60 --> 3632.86] So all Z97 motherboards have that. +[3633.26 --> 3637.36] But for Z87, they're running on an older MEI firmware. +[3637.64 --> 3641.92] So you will actually have to backport that MEI firmware blocked to those boards. +[3641.92 --> 3644.12] Now we've done some internal testing already. +[3644.12 --> 3648.18] And we have been able to actually backport this. +[3648.46 --> 3656.36] But as to, you know, what the timeframe may be for us to formally roll this out or whether we will formally roll that out, I can't state that at this time. +[3656.44 --> 3664.58] We're still evaluating because there's also a concern that we talked about this, I think, last time with AMD, where there's always a little bit of trickiness. +[3664.58 --> 3676.90] When you backport new CPUs to an older chipset and you make the UEFI or the BIOS compatible for that, you don't want it to break the overall performance or the interoperability compatibility for the old CPU platform. +[3677.46 --> 3677.52] Right. +[3677.52 --> 3682.92] Because we have to overall favor the majority of people that have the old CPU versus the new CPU. +[3683.04 --> 3687.14] Because most users, I mean, statistically on that old chipset, aren't going to upgrade to a new CPU. +[3687.44 --> 3694.76] But they may go out there and they may download that new UEFI at 4.6 or 4.7. +[3694.76 --> 3700.80] And it maybe brings down their overhead a little bit because, you know, there's different code base and different that running around in there. +[3701.06 --> 3701.98] We try not to do that. +[3702.04 --> 3708.02] So our rule of thumb is we try to keep the performance for the previous CPU the same or within a 5% margin. +[3708.02 --> 3711.10] If it doesn't adhere to that, then it's something that we might not do. +[3711.22 --> 3712.34] And then there's also still use. +[3712.72 --> 3715.06] There is also resource limitations and things like that. +[3715.10 --> 3720.04] As you guys know, there's another chipset that I can't talk about, but it's coming down later down the pipe. +[3720.14 --> 3721.94] So this is all just about a managed resource. +[3721.94 --> 3724.48] But I think our track record has been pretty good in this regard. +[3724.66 --> 3730.80] So as soon as I have more information on what will happen specifically for Z87, you guys will definitely know. +[3730.90 --> 3733.72] I will make sure to let you guys know as far as how that works out. +[3734.10 --> 3738.42] But right now, guaranteed, 100% support is exclusive to Z97. +[3738.86 --> 3739.40] All right. +[3739.44 --> 3745.24] So what I'd like to do is, guys, we're going to thank everyone for sending in their Q&A questions for JJ. +[3745.48 --> 3746.90] Thanks, JJ, for answering them. +[3746.90 --> 3747.50] But hold on. +[3747.80 --> 3751.90] I'm not quite done with you yet, JJ, because I'd love for you to hang around with us for one more. +[3751.94 --> 3752.80] More topic. +[3752.92 --> 3753.92] That isn't a Q&A. +[3754.16 --> 3758.26] But this is something that I have personally bitched to you about. +[3758.72 --> 3761.96] And now I may be getting my way. +[3762.04 --> 3762.98] I'm extremely excited. +[3763.20 --> 3776.94] And I would love to hear your thoughts on the rumor that Intel's upcoming Xeons, including some pretty crazy, like, 18-core SKUs, may be unlocked. +[3776.94 --> 3784.88] Or even water-cooling optimized, which has implications that I'm sure are fairly obvious to you for enthusiasts. +[3785.96 --> 3787.94] And this was posted originally on the forum by Luca... +[3787.94 --> 3789.90] He doesn't look like he wants to answer. +[3789.92 --> 3790.60] Luca P. +[3790.60 --> 3792.60] So, let's... +[3792.60 --> 3795.14] Oh, yeah. +[3795.22 --> 3797.96] And the original article was from hardwarebot.org. +[3800.36 --> 3801.54] Sounds interesting to me. +[3801.60 --> 3802.74] That's about all I can say. +[3804.42 --> 3805.46] Oh, come on! +[3805.46 --> 3808.76] I wasn't expecting more than that, to be honest. +[3809.96 --> 3811.24] Sounds interesting to me. +[3811.44 --> 3814.42] You know, but I will preface this. +[3814.80 --> 3815.72] I will preface this. +[3816.38 --> 3820.42] There's always a lot of interesting things that comes about on the interwebs, as you guys know. +[3820.50 --> 3825.22] And your guys' forums is a hotbed for a lot of this stuff circulating around and people discussing it. +[3825.78 --> 3825.96] No. +[3826.62 --> 3827.44] Not at all. +[3827.44 --> 3831.82] And, you know, some of it is sometimes true and some of it's not true, you know. +[3831.92 --> 3840.84] But even around, like, the upcoming Devil's Canyon, there's been a lot of supposed communication and validation at what people perceive to be truths that were existing before in the community. +[3841.24 --> 3848.30] And they think that all of a sudden there's been changes that all of a sudden have somehow aligned with these truths that they think existed about older CPUs. +[3848.52 --> 3854.76] And are going to be all of a sudden, I guess, proven true for the refresh-based CPUs. +[3854.76 --> 3858.70] And, you know, all things will come in time as far as you'll see the way things work out. +[3859.14 --> 3861.92] But, you know, like it is, all things will come in time, right? +[3862.08 --> 3863.44] That didn't sound like a denial. +[3864.24 --> 3865.46] You know, I can't. +[3865.50 --> 3866.88] Like I said, I wish I could say more. +[3867.42 --> 3870.16] But I just have to keep it tuned, right? +[3870.30 --> 3870.56] You know. +[3870.64 --> 3878.02] And I'm sure the moment that something is confirmed and validated, they're going to find out from you guys because you guys are great about giving everybody that information. +[3879.32 --> 3879.86] All right. +[3879.86 --> 3881.00] Well, I'll tell you what, JJ. +[3881.00 --> 3886.46] JJ, without you having to confirm or deny anything, first of all, thank you very much for coming on the show. +[3886.54 --> 3888.46] It was an absolute pleasure to have you on again. +[3888.80 --> 3899.54] And second of all, just like, okay, just like the conversation I had with NVIDIA where I was swapping emails with my PR contact at like 3 in the morning. +[3899.54 --> 3905.26] Whereas I said, out of the blue, I'm just like, you know, Shield 2 rumors are starting to float around. +[3905.54 --> 3907.82] And, you know, we're hearing screen resolution this. +[3907.90 --> 3908.72] We're hearing that. +[3909.06 --> 3912.46] Obviously, the CPUs are the GPU, whatever you want to call it. +[3912.92 --> 3915.48] I could really piss NVIDIA off and call it an APU. +[3917.90 --> 3920.08] Obviously, that's been pretty much ready for a while. +[3920.08 --> 3922.40] So, I sent this email. +[3922.54 --> 3925.92] I'm like, hey, make sure I'm on the top of the list for a Shield 2. +[3926.12 --> 3927.62] And he just sends back, lol. +[3928.26 --> 3930.38] But that was all the response I needed. +[3930.60 --> 3931.80] I just made sure you heard me. +[3932.08 --> 3939.92] JJ, man, make sure that if any of this enthusiast grade, multi-core, overclocking, unlock stuff happens, +[3940.04 --> 3945.02] whatever board you guys have that is the very best one, whether that's a WS or whatever else, +[3945.30 --> 3947.76] please make sure that I'm on the top of the list. +[3948.02 --> 3948.82] Top of the list, man. +[3948.82 --> 3950.86] You guys are always on the top of my list. +[3951.04 --> 3951.68] You guys are great. +[3951.68 --> 3951.88] Thank you. +[3952.70 --> 3953.62] We always try to work with this. +[3953.62 --> 3956.96] Should we all, like, kind of hug and kiss before we say bye here? +[3956.98 --> 3957.82] Well, we need two. +[3957.90 --> 3958.98] I'm not even trying to get one. +[3959.16 --> 3959.72] We need two. +[3959.72 --> 3960.16] It's all good. +[3960.26 --> 3962.28] You know, we got a healthy bromance going on. +[3962.32 --> 3962.84] It's all right. +[3962.96 --> 3964.48] You know, I think we're all comfortable here. +[3964.94 --> 3965.62] Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. +[3965.80 --> 3969.12] You got to get us two of those boards if they exist because he's going to steal one. +[3969.24 --> 3970.86] And I need to benchmark it. +[3970.94 --> 3972.34] I don't even care personally. +[3972.94 --> 3974.36] I cannot take it home. +[3974.42 --> 3974.88] That's fine. +[3975.00 --> 3976.30] He's going to take it home. +[3976.38 --> 3977.92] So, I need another one for testing. +[3977.92 --> 3979.78] You know, I will give you one thing. +[3980.12 --> 3985.20] It's something I actually – I wrote about it on the PCDIY site that I handled the compfit for. +[3985.82 --> 3987.46] But I think it's, like, a little bit lone fact. +[3987.56 --> 3989.66] I don't know if you guys already kind of found out about it. +[3989.66 --> 3996.34] But since I couldn't give you a confirm or deny about what you guys asked about, a lot of people have been asking about the Swift. +[3996.92 --> 4002.28] One of the really cool things I can tell you for the Swift is, you know, the Swift – you guys know all the new specs it will have. +[4002.34 --> 4008.02] But one of the new functions it will also be – it will be the first 3D Vision 2560-enabled panel. +[4008.02 --> 4011.86] So, you'll be able to game and actually add 3D resolutions beyond 1080. +[4012.06 --> 4014.50] So, that's at least something maybe you guys didn't know about. +[4014.56 --> 4014.92] Kind of cool. +[4015.36 --> 4016.18] I did not. +[4016.76 --> 4016.96] No. +[4018.00 --> 4019.06] I don't like 3D. +[4019.22 --> 4021.24] I know you don't like 3D, but some people do. +[4021.64 --> 4025.62] And you haven't tried it with a low-persistence backlight monitor, have you? +[4025.62 --> 4026.00] That's true. +[4026.12 --> 4026.50] No, I haven't. +[4026.72 --> 4028.48] So, this could be very interesting. +[4028.48 --> 4029.82] I've tried the light boost hack, though. +[4029.82 --> 4030.40] All right. +[4030.50 --> 4031.90] So, thank you very much, JJ. +[4032.32 --> 4042.52] And we will hopefully have you on again, I guess, in another year when another – oh, no, because we're going to – you can neither confirm nor deny that we're going to have another chipset sooner than that. +[4042.76 --> 4042.90] Right. +[4043.62 --> 4047.82] But why don't we all agree that we're going to reconvene sooner than a year from now? +[4048.40 --> 4051.36] Yeah, I definitely will say sooner than a year from now we can reconvene. +[4051.36 --> 4059.34] And if any of your guys have any questions that they want answered that I didn't answer, you can tell them. +[4059.38 --> 4060.16] They can post in the forum. +[4060.32 --> 4064.68] I'll jump back in there a little bit later tonight, and I'll be more than happy to answer anybody's questions. +[4064.96 --> 4065.76] That's fantastic. +[4065.96 --> 4066.20] All right. +[4066.26 --> 4066.80] Thanks, JJ. +[4067.34 --> 4070.18] And thanks to all of our viewers. +[4070.36 --> 4077.10] If you guys want to just let JJ know, give him a big old, you know, thanks, JJ, in the Twitch chat or on Twitter or whatever else. +[4077.12 --> 4078.66] I'm sure he'll want to check that out. +[4078.66 --> 4084.88] But now it is time to cover our sponsors for the day. +[4085.40 --> 4088.10] So first up, we've got Squarespace. +[4088.40 --> 4091.26] Now, they asked us to do something a little bit different. +[4091.50 --> 4098.78] So normally we would say, okay, Squarespace is the beautiful way to create your own very own awesome, fantastic website. +[4099.16 --> 4101.50] And it's, you know, relatively inexpensive. +[4101.90 --> 4102.98] Actually, it's quite inexpensive. +[4103.18 --> 4104.28] They have 24-7 support. +[4104.38 --> 4106.22] Okay, all that stuff that I normally say. +[4106.22 --> 4110.96] This time, they actually asked me for something very, very different. +[4111.60 --> 4113.44] And I'm going to go ahead. +[4113.54 --> 4117.44] I'm going to play this here song that is known as... +[4117.44 --> 4118.60] I'm not going to be able to hear it. +[4118.76 --> 4119.22] I have it. +[4119.90 --> 4120.12] What? +[4120.42 --> 4121.08] You can hear it. +[4121.90 --> 4125.02] That is known as the Squarespace jingle. +[4125.02 --> 4130.88] Also, there might be some lip syncing going on in the corner up here. +[4133.56 --> 4134.46] Oh, it's muted. +[4135.12 --> 4136.34] How dare you be muted. +[4137.22 --> 4139.18] This is the song-a-day guy, by the way. +[4139.66 --> 4140.02] Here we go. +[4140.06 --> 4140.38] Here we go. +[4140.42 --> 4140.74] Here we go. +[4140.78 --> 4141.10] Here we go. +[4141.16 --> 4141.48] Here we go. +[4141.80 --> 4142.10] All right. +[4142.16 --> 4142.36] Okay. +[4142.46 --> 4142.70] Okay. +[4142.88 --> 4144.34] We got the lyrics to it. +[4144.34 --> 4149.28] It's the all-in-one platform. +[4149.68 --> 4151.90] Makes it fast and easy to create. +[4152.36 --> 4160.20] You can start with 20 highly customizable templates to make your own professional website +[4160.20 --> 4162.46] or online portfolio. +[4163.58 --> 4167.80] Industry-leading support at just $8 a month. +[4168.16 --> 4168.18] Wow. +[4168.64 --> 4169.86] You know the drill. +[4169.98 --> 4171.24] You know where to go. +[4171.24 --> 4173.94] Squarespace gets started today. +[4174.16 --> 4176.60] Make the website that you want to make. +[4176.88 --> 4179.34] Squarespace so easy and fast. +[4179.64 --> 4181.76] They can fund all your favorite podcasts. +[4182.32 --> 4187.58] They fund all your favorite podcasts to start your retry. +[4188.26 --> 4190.58] No credit card required. +[4190.98 --> 4193.12] All responsive design. +[4193.58 --> 4195.94] Every device, every time. +[4195.94 --> 4200.94] All the options you need to create a unique. +[4201.24 --> 4201.92] Website. +[4202.02 --> 4203.62] They're constantly improving. +[4204.32 --> 4206.56] The platform and the tools. +[4207.24 --> 4208.24] And it's awesome. +[4208.72 --> 4209.10] There you go. +[4209.20 --> 4211.24] Squarespace gets started today. +[4211.32 --> 4213.96] Make the website that you want to make. +[4214.26 --> 4216.66] Squarespace so easy and fast. +[4216.96 --> 4219.04] They fund all your favorite podcasts. +[4219.64 --> 4222.66] They fund all your favorite podcasts. +[4222.66 --> 4231.44] And that, my friends, is the Squarespace song. +[4231.68 --> 4237.20] And they sent this over to me and I was like, yeah, okay, we can play this on the show. +[4237.28 --> 4241.74] But I tell you what, guys, there is no way that we can take this seriously because even +[4241.74 --> 4247.94] though the song legit actually contains all the key selling points of Squarespace, it's +[4247.94 --> 4253.18] just, it's like, it's not a serious song by any stretch of the imagination. +[4253.46 --> 4259.20] So, guys, the point of this is not necessarily to listen to it and kind of go, oh, now I completely +[4259.20 --> 4259.92] understand Squarespace. +[4259.92 --> 4265.24] The point, more than anything else, is to go, look, this is a fun way to get the word +[4265.24 --> 4266.24] out there about Squarespace. +[4266.62 --> 4274.24] And most importantly, a fun way to talk about how Squarespace funds some pretty awesome podcasts, +[4274.48 --> 4275.64] including ours. +[4276.04 --> 4281.68] And it's a big reason that we are actually able to exist and able to do this kind of thing. +[4281.68 --> 4287.18] And that, that was the whole thing in the chorus about we fund all your favorite podcasts because +[4287.18 --> 4292.28] they're very proud of their role in supporting the podcast community, something that a lot +[4292.28 --> 4298.16] of other companies are just not that interested in because the ROI is very difficult to measure. +[4298.30 --> 4303.66] So, guys, just remember, you want to make your own beautiful website, head over to squarespace.com +[4303.66 --> 4309.44] slash Linus for a free trial and 10% off gets, or you get 10% off with offer code Linus. +[4309.76 --> 4310.22] There we go. +[4310.22 --> 4313.86] Not my most, not my most graceful, graceful read ever. +[4314.04 --> 4321.04] But speaking of graceful and perfect segues that couldn't be any better no matter what +[4321.04 --> 4326.20] happened, Modus is a new sponsor of the WAN show. +[4326.38 --> 4331.46] And you guys all need to, like legitimately, if you have a Facebook account, and I know not +[4331.46 --> 4336.86] all of you are going to, but you are going to want to head over to Facebook and head over +[4336.86 --> 4338.86] to the Modus page. +[4338.86 --> 4341.08] So that's M-O-D-I-S. +[4341.42 --> 4345.56] Because Geekstakes is going on right now, you guys. +[4345.72 --> 4351.10] And Geekstakes is, was actually a collaborative thing that we worked on. +[4351.28 --> 4353.18] Austin Evans has been involved. +[4353.72 --> 4357.08] And it is basically a bunch of crazy awesome prizes. +[4357.08 --> 4360.72] Hey guys, it's Geekstakes 2014. +[4360.72 --> 4366.80] No, but seriously, we helped pick all the prizes because they asked us for some insight into +[4366.80 --> 4369.46] what our audience would want them to give away. +[4369.72 --> 4371.74] So here, I'm just going to screen share really quick here. +[4372.14 --> 4372.92] So there you go. +[4373.04 --> 4375.00] It's Facebook.com slash Modus. +[4375.00 --> 4377.24] So Modus is an IT recruiter. +[4377.34 --> 4381.48] So not only do they give away a bunch of cool stuff, but you can submit your resume to them +[4381.48 --> 4382.04] for free. +[4382.04 --> 4388.84] And they handle placements to Fortune 500 companies, little tiny startups, and all throughout the +[4388.84 --> 4389.48] IT industry. +[4389.48 --> 4394.46] It's a way of getting a job in the IT industry that, quite frankly, I had never actually considered. +[4394.46 --> 4396.68] I'd heard of it. +[4397.22 --> 4399.34] So it costs nothing for the actual user. +[4399.98 --> 4404.48] And major, like big companies, they asked me not to name any names, but big companies +[4404.48 --> 4408.38] use these guys to fill some seriously cool positions. +[4408.38 --> 4411.10] I'm sure if you're one of the people that want to sign up for this, your Google foo is +[4411.10 --> 4412.98] probably good enough to kind of figure that out. +[4413.06 --> 4413.16] Yeah. +[4413.26 --> 4416.68] So anyway, guys, the Geekstakes runs from May 23rd to June 6th. +[4416.68 --> 4419.54] And if you go back every day, you can get additional entries. +[4419.72 --> 4423.98] I do want to talk a little bit about what they are giving away. +[4423.98 --> 4426.42] So there's an MSI GS60. +[4426.68 --> 4428.98] That was my personal contribution. +[4429.12 --> 4434.16] I was like, okay, look, you guys, whatever other prizes you got, like that's cool. +[4434.42 --> 4435.06] That's cool. +[4435.18 --> 4437.94] But you want to make sure you've got like a sweet gaming notebook. +[4438.22 --> 4443.10] And that was one that was able to fit into the price that we were able to kind of take +[4443.10 --> 4445.10] away from everything else and be able to hit. +[4445.28 --> 4447.66] They are giving away an Oculus Rift. +[4448.04 --> 4453.96] They are giving away a Parrot AR drone, a Lytro camera, that camera that you can, +[4453.98 --> 4455.86] focus after you take the picture. +[4456.04 --> 4456.24] Right, right. +[4456.24 --> 4461.10] They're giving away a Fire TV, a Sphero, that Bluetooth control ball, Pebble smartwatch. +[4461.28 --> 4462.86] That was my personal contribution as well. +[4463.22 --> 4466.02] A Jaybird Blue Buds X Bluetooth earbud set. +[4466.98 --> 4469.92] Almost everything on this list is stuff we've reviewed in the past. +[4470.04 --> 4470.20] Yeah. +[4470.20 --> 4474.18] They're giving away an M45 gaming mouse, my personal favorite gaming mouse right now. +[4474.28 --> 4477.82] So guys, definitely go and check that out. +[4477.98 --> 4480.70] Which brings us into our last sponsor. +[4481.26 --> 4486.34] Guys, if you haven't had enough Asus on this show already, what on earth are you doing? +[4486.42 --> 4486.74] You know what? +[4486.78 --> 4491.80] Just go back to the standard one because we've got our Asus ROG notebook right there. +[4491.80 --> 4495.80] If you haven't had enough Asus on this show, I'm going to drink some Asus Kool-Aid here +[4495.80 --> 4498.80] some more and talk to you guys about the G750JZ. +[4499.86 --> 4501.62] I don't think we have any other Asus things. +[4502.40 --> 4502.72] Okay. +[4503.44 --> 4504.10] Oh, it's Monday. +[4504.22 --> 4507.10] So I was doing the WAN show and I brought a laptop. +[4507.48 --> 4512.78] I thought that I would rap, but you didn't give a crap top about my rhymes that just ain't +[4512.78 --> 4513.50] that great. +[4513.62 --> 4516.80] But on the show, it's my show, so don't hate. +[4517.36 --> 4518.12] Oh my God. +[4518.16 --> 4519.02] You prepped that, didn't you? +[4519.02 --> 4519.90] No, I actually didn't. +[4520.00 --> 4520.24] Really? +[4520.44 --> 4521.40] That was 100% freestyle. +[4521.52 --> 4522.30] That was pretty good. +[4522.48 --> 4524.30] I've freestyled better on the show before. +[4524.40 --> 4529.82] But anyway, the point, guys, is the G750JZ is a legit power gaming notebook. +[4529.96 --> 4530.56] Legit power? +[4530.66 --> 4531.82] Legit powerful gaming notebook. +[4532.10 --> 4533.18] I'm never going to make it through. +[4534.38 --> 4535.26] Legit power. +[4535.38 --> 4536.76] That should be their new tagline. +[4536.90 --> 4537.30] It's funny. +[4537.30 --> 4537.82] Rock solid. +[4538.04 --> 4538.88] Legit power. +[4540.54 --> 4543.80] The saddest part is I don't even think it's impossible. +[4544.26 --> 4544.40] No. +[4545.30 --> 4546.54] Can't even power. +[4546.54 --> 4547.22] Legit. +[4547.56 --> 4549.80] Literally can't even power. +[4550.76 --> 4551.16] Okay. +[4551.30 --> 4557.66] So anyway, the point is, it's funny, because with these, the way we talk about the G750JZ, +[4557.82 --> 4561.38] like we eventually laboriously get the point across. +[4562.08 --> 4566.08] But if I was ASUS, I'd be like, what are these guys doing over there? +[4566.08 --> 4570.84] But truthfully, and this is just, this is like the biggest tease ever, because I'm not +[4570.84 --> 4572.34] going to tell you guys anything about it. +[4572.62 --> 4576.40] ASUS just signed on with us for something really exciting. +[4576.56 --> 4581.34] It's a collaborative effort between me and Logan and some other guys, potentially. +[4581.68 --> 4584.26] And they are going to be our presenting sponsor for it. +[4584.26 --> 4588.06] We're going to be talking about, potentially, another cool ASUS gaming laptop. +[4588.06 --> 4593.08] And it is going to be absolutely, like, bat crap crazy. +[4593.32 --> 4595.04] Expect that to happen around the end of June. +[4595.10 --> 4601.14] But in the meantime, G750JZ is what I would consider to be about as good as it gets for +[4601.14 --> 4605.54] a desktop replacement without getting into that unreasonable size, where it just doesn't +[4605.54 --> 4608.22] really make any sense anymore, and the battery life isn't that good. +[4608.22 --> 4614.10] Like, with the, with the 750JZ, I can get through almost two full WAN shows on one charge, in +[4614.10 --> 4618.96] spite of the fact that it is a gaming notebook, and if I am gaming, obviously battery life's +[4618.96 --> 4624.02] not as good, but I can get performance that is pretty close to what you could do on a modern +[4624.02 --> 4627.98] generation desktop, and actually probably about the same as what you could do on a last +[4627.98 --> 4630.78] gen high performance gaming desktop with a single GPU. +[4631.32 --> 4632.38] Enthusiast grade GPU. +[4632.64 --> 4633.40] You know what we should do? +[4633.90 --> 4636.44] You know how we make like tech quickie commercials for different companies every once in a while? +[4636.44 --> 4636.78] Well, hold on. +[4636.86 --> 4640.88] So, thanks ASUS for sponsoring the WAN show and providing us with these awesome laptops +[4640.88 --> 4642.80] to use while we broadcast to you guys. +[4642.88 --> 4644.02] It's like, pretty cool of them. +[4644.28 --> 4646.46] It's nice, considering my last one barely works anymore. +[4647.88 --> 4653.32] We should make a, like, tech quickie-style commercial thing for Jay-Z laptops, but we should +[4653.32 --> 4657.12] make it where it's a rap battle featuring Linus. +[4657.12 --> 4662.92] And Linus has to, like, go through these, it's kind of like the Pokemon League, but in rap +[4662.92 --> 4663.50] battle form. +[4663.50 --> 4668.42] So you have to, like, beat all these different rap battle trainer people, and they all have, +[4668.42 --> 4671.26] like, different styles, and you have to make your way through it, and then when you win, +[4671.34 --> 4672.28] you get a Jay-Z laptop. +[4673.16 --> 4673.52] Okay. +[4673.96 --> 4675.06] Oh, hey, guys. +[4675.16 --> 4675.70] Oh, sorry. +[4675.96 --> 4676.66] Sorry, sorry. +[4676.72 --> 4677.74] Totally, totally off topic. +[4677.86 --> 4679.94] I've got our... +[4679.94 --> 4680.56] What on earth? +[4680.62 --> 4681.00] Where is it? +[4681.04 --> 4682.10] Okay, well, okay, anyway. +[4682.74 --> 4685.58] Back to the Modus giveaway really quickly here. +[4685.66 --> 4686.28] Just screen share me. +[4686.28 --> 4689.92] Um, the first draw is in half an hour. +[4690.52 --> 4693.68] So guys, seriously, legitimately, go check it out. +[4693.94 --> 4697.16] Go like the page right now, and you'll be entered to win a stick and find. +[4697.26 --> 4701.46] So that's that little Bluetooth sticker that Luke and I used for that fun little video we +[4701.46 --> 4702.84] did where we played hide the sausage. +[4703.38 --> 4708.14] So guys, seriously, like, just go there now and go click it, because otherwise, um, I will +[4708.14 --> 4713.30] have to eat gruel for several weeks, and I don't think you would want that. +[4713.30 --> 4714.70] Twitch chat liked my idea. +[4715.30 --> 4716.04] What was your idea? +[4716.10 --> 4716.86] Oh, I hate your idea. +[4716.96 --> 4718.34] Your idea is stupid. +[4718.50 --> 4718.64] Why? +[4719.40 --> 4721.78] Your idea is bad, and you should feel bad. +[4721.82 --> 4722.90] I want to see you rap battle. +[4723.50 --> 4724.62] You want to see me rap battle? +[4724.74 --> 4724.94] Yeah. +[4725.22 --> 4725.72] Do you? +[4726.00 --> 4726.94] Yeah, I do, actually. +[4727.08 --> 4727.64] Oh, boy. +[4728.86 --> 4731.86] And yet, you don't want to make a foot flick music video. +[4732.28 --> 4733.34] Okay, okay. +[4733.68 --> 4737.92] So last show, you guys, I brought up the foot flick thing, about how every nerd knows how +[4737.92 --> 4740.98] to do the foot flick so they don't yank ethernet cables and destroy devices. +[4741.34 --> 4746.78] So I was saying we should do, like, a really quick kind of tech tips video on, like, everyone +[4746.78 --> 4748.20] should know how to do the foot flick. +[4748.30 --> 4749.32] This is how you do the foot flick. +[4749.64 --> 4754.20] And his reaction was, awesome, but let's make it a music video. +[4755.16 --> 4756.00] Do the foot flick. +[4756.56 --> 4758.10] Oh, oh, do the foot flick. +[4758.60 --> 4759.26] Oh, oh. +[4759.26 --> 4761.06] So we're making, like, new dance moves. +[4761.36 --> 4765.12] But part of the foot flick is you've got to flick your foot back so hard that you fall forward. +[4765.22 --> 4765.42] Yeah. +[4765.62 --> 4767.32] So the whole thing's going to have to be, like, this. +[4767.32 --> 4769.66] Yeah, it couldn't be the same person every time. +[4769.96 --> 4770.04] No. +[4770.04 --> 4775.46] Like, the idea is that, like, we'd have, like, one cable during the chorus, and, like, one +[4775.46 --> 4779.24] person would walk by and, like, do the foot flick, and they'd, like, roll past it. +[4779.28 --> 4781.28] And then, like, the next person comes by, do the foot flick. +[4781.46 --> 4783.66] And if you can't do the foot flick, you're going to be in trouble. +[4783.92 --> 4785.94] You're going to be on the ground on the double. +[4786.20 --> 4787.28] And then, like, someone falls. +[4787.44 --> 4789.06] See, I would love to see you in a rap battle. +[4789.52 --> 4790.44] I think you could do it. +[4791.34 --> 4792.36] Oh, I love it. +[4792.66 --> 4793.86] I definitely think you could do it. +[4794.14 --> 4795.46] So are we, yeah, I don't know. +[4795.46 --> 4797.02] We've got to do something with the foot flick. +[4797.58 --> 4797.90] Okay. +[4798.06 --> 4798.30] Okay. +[4798.30 --> 4799.04] Whatever it ends up being. +[4799.96 --> 4802.24] We will do something with the foot flick. +[4802.40 --> 4808.50] I cannot promise nor threaten that it will be a rap battle or a music video, but it will +[4808.50 --> 4809.52] definitely be something. +[4810.20 --> 4810.52] All right. +[4810.52 --> 4813.78] Speaking of things that are definitely something, this is cool. +[4813.90 --> 4821.72] I mean, we don't often just find, you know, like, a little small PC announcement and sort +[4821.72 --> 4825.32] of make a big deal about it on the WAN show, unless it's a product that we think is, like, +[4825.70 --> 4826.84] really, really different. +[4827.12 --> 4830.38] And this is still just an all-in-one mini PC. +[4830.48 --> 4831.38] Or not all-in-one, pardon me. +[4831.68 --> 4833.10] It's still just a mini PC. +[4833.10 --> 4834.50] But look at it. +[4835.42 --> 4838.08] This is the Z-Box Sphere. +[4838.98 --> 4841.82] And what it is, is it is a tiny PC. +[4842.22 --> 4845.74] Like, it's, okay, this isn't giving you guys much of an idea of the scale here. +[4845.80 --> 4849.16] So this was posted on the forum by 4960X. +[4849.72 --> 4855.72] Seriously, people who put, like, years in their usernames or, like, individual products in their +[4855.72 --> 4859.14] usernames, you guys got to forward think a little bit more. +[4859.14 --> 4861.02] Anyway, it's about this big. +[4861.08 --> 4862.48] I saw it first at CES. +[4862.62 --> 4867.54] But this thing's got a Core i5 processor in it and is a full computer in the size of a +[4867.54 --> 4867.82] sphere. +[4868.02 --> 4868.78] And you know what? +[4869.80 --> 4871.72] They deserve some attention for this. +[4871.98 --> 4874.64] For trying to think, literally, outside the box. +[4874.82 --> 4875.14] Oh. +[4877.50 --> 4878.44] No, you don't want to do that. +[4878.44 --> 4879.02] Oh, are you sweaty? +[4879.16 --> 4879.78] It's nasty. +[4879.86 --> 4880.00] Okay. +[4880.40 --> 4884.84] Well, the point is, they're thinking outside the box in much the same way that Apple is +[4884.84 --> 4886.10] getting so much attention for. +[4886.10 --> 4890.54] But who else is going to pay attention to Zotac for doing something a little bit different +[4890.54 --> 4891.64] other than us? +[4891.76 --> 4893.88] So I've requested a review sample of that. +[4893.98 --> 4895.62] I do want to tell you guys more about it. +[4895.68 --> 4896.74] I think it's really cool. +[4897.14 --> 4900.42] You basically twist off the top for tool-less upgrades. +[4900.54 --> 4905.90] It takes a 2.5-inch SSD, an M-SATA SSD, and two SODIM modules. +[4906.52 --> 4909.40] And, yeah, I think that is pretty darn cool. +[4909.74 --> 4911.86] Speaking of things that aren't pretty darn cool. +[4912.86 --> 4913.80] Oh, yeah. +[4913.80 --> 4915.48] What is, like, what? +[4916.00 --> 4918.82] So this was posted on the forum by Niels Kersik. +[4919.28 --> 4921.84] And the original article is from tweakers.net. +[4922.06 --> 4926.88] And, basically, Google sent out a letter that was discovered by the Wall Street Journal. +[4927.08 --> 4928.56] Thank you, Wall Street Journal, for being cool. +[4929.06 --> 4932.34] This letter was sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission back in December, arguing +[4932.34 --> 4935.16] that they don't have to specify their revenues on mobile ads. +[4935.16 --> 4944.26] And one of the arguments that they brought up is that it's difficult to indicate mobile devices +[4944.26 --> 4946.28] because the definition keeps on changing. +[4946.66 --> 4948.14] Like, it's difficult to pin down. +[4948.22 --> 4949.68] What exactly is a mobile device? +[4949.68 --> 4956.24] So they use possible future examples such as fridges, thermostats, glasses, and watches. +[4956.24 --> 4967.48] But the problem here is that even though Google hasn't talked or even indicated that they have any plans of implementing ads on any of those kinds of devices, +[4968.76 --> 4971.90] it shows that they're thinking about it. +[4971.90 --> 4980.66] Like, how annoying would that be on something like a watch where you have such limited real estate where it's like... +[4980.66 --> 4985.52] Or, okay, but let's move away from sort of the watches we have today and kind of go, +[4985.68 --> 4989.10] okay, what about the watch of tomorrow where it has a holographic display or whatever else? +[4989.76 --> 4993.58] Could we be looking at a situation where you, like, are expected to look past an ad? +[4993.88 --> 4997.78] Or, like, if you look at it at the wrong angle, there's, like, an ad in your face? +[4997.78 --> 4998.82] Like... +[4998.82 --> 4999.46] Yeah, probably. +[4999.66 --> 5002.82] And it's frustrating because this brings up the thing that we've talked about before, too, +[5002.88 --> 5008.84] which is where you totally buy a device and then that person that you bought the device from serves you ads, +[5009.00 --> 5010.26] which is crazy frustrating. +[5011.30 --> 5012.62] Okay, speaking of... +[5012.62 --> 5014.00] So, anyway, that's just... +[5014.00 --> 5015.72] It was a very brief discussion topic there. +[5015.72 --> 5022.40] Speaking of buying a device and then having the rug completely pulled out from under you, +[5022.82 --> 5024.84] LG has... +[5024.84 --> 5027.04] LG, guys, not cool. +[5027.04 --> 5029.30] Like, not cool what's going on here. +[5029.66 --> 5034.90] And as much as Noir's original post about this is super lame, +[5034.98 --> 5039.74] it just says silly LG and then is a link to the original source here. +[5039.94 --> 5042.22] That is not how we do things, Noir. +[5043.20 --> 5047.10] Still, I actually am not sure what else I could have said about it. +[5047.14 --> 5049.16] So, the original article is from techdirt.com. +[5049.16 --> 5057.18] And basically, what happened is this gentleman didn't want to roll out an update to his two-year-old TV +[5057.18 --> 5063.00] that would change the privacy policy in such a way that he wasn't comfortable with. +[5063.00 --> 5064.00] So, what LG... +[5065.00 --> 5065.44] Sorry? +[5065.44 --> 5066.36] With good reason. +[5066.42 --> 5067.24] With good reason. +[5067.76 --> 5068.66] So, what LG... +[5068.66 --> 5068.88] Oh, yeah. +[5068.96 --> 5069.08] Okay. +[5069.14 --> 5070.34] So, what it said was, yeah. +[5070.42 --> 5073.90] When you use Live Plus, we may share certain viewing information, device information, +[5074.00 --> 5078.56] and basic usage information with third parties for advertising and analytics purposes +[5078.56 --> 5083.04] and enable the provision of information relevant to what you are viewing. +[5083.04 --> 5089.68] To third party vendors that LG Electronics may engage to provide services on his behalf from time to time, +[5089.76 --> 5092.86] such as to collect payment for content you purchase or to fulfill customer service requests +[5092.86 --> 5094.32] or to provide advertising services. +[5095.16 --> 5098.28] So, basically, the guy was like, yeah, no, that's not cool. +[5098.72 --> 5102.38] So, LG basically goes, okay, well, you can either accept it +[5102.38 --> 5108.44] or you cannot use the smart TV features of your smart TV that you bought. +[5108.64 --> 5112.54] And it's not like he can just take it back to the store at this point to two-year-old TV. +[5112.54 --> 5113.78] That's about it from Costco. +[5113.92 --> 5116.40] Even Costco doesn't take back two-year-old TVs anymore. +[5116.60 --> 5117.84] I think it's a three-month limit now. +[5118.06 --> 5118.32] Wow. +[5120.14 --> 5126.34] I can't even begin to understand how they feel like this is okay. +[5126.66 --> 5127.52] I mean, it's... +[5127.52 --> 5130.04] And they definitely do because it's very plainly written. +[5130.48 --> 5130.76] Yes. +[5131.38 --> 5132.20] That's going to happen. +[5132.20 --> 5138.48] It's part of their policy that they can just not, if you refuse to accept the usage changes. +[5138.82 --> 5139.38] And you know what? +[5139.38 --> 5145.12] They're not the only ones who have covered their butts in such a way that, you know, +[5145.16 --> 5148.54] they could just change anything at any time and you would just have to deal with it. +[5148.82 --> 5152.24] I just feel like, guys, when we hear about things like this, +[5152.44 --> 5159.16] we have a responsibility to not support the guys who are, if nothing else, +[5159.66 --> 5162.66] even if everyone has this as part of their policy, +[5162.66 --> 5165.62] we can choose not to support the ones that are enforcing it. +[5165.94 --> 5170.64] And at least make the ones that aren't enforcing it kind of look at what's going on and go, +[5170.74 --> 5171.66] oh, okay, well... +[5172.18 --> 5173.60] Let's keep not enforcing this. +[5173.60 --> 5174.74] Let's keep not enforcing that. +[5174.80 --> 5180.08] Because otherwise, we are going to back ourselves into a corner where we are just going to have no choice +[5180.08 --> 5181.40] and we're not going to have another option. +[5181.40 --> 5186.36] I've never really been interested in smart TVs because I find that, honestly, most of them are junk anyways. +[5186.82 --> 5187.76] They truly are. +[5188.18 --> 5190.40] So I wouldn't have bought one anyways, +[5190.58 --> 5195.10] but this makes it so that if I had to, I would specifically not buy an LG one. +[5195.66 --> 5197.48] Because, again, we have to try and vote with our wallets. +[5197.52 --> 5202.50] It rarely seems to work, but if we can try again, that would be fantastic. +[5203.08 --> 5205.60] Yeah, if we could just try that again... +[5205.60 --> 5206.40] That would be great. +[5206.40 --> 5207.06] That would be great. +[5207.80 --> 5208.24] Thanks. +[5208.24 --> 5212.56] All right, so big news this week. +[5212.96 --> 5215.08] And I would love for you guys to... +[5215.08 --> 5217.28] Let's do just a general Twitter Blitz Q&A. +[5217.36 --> 5218.78] We're getting pretty close to the end of the show. +[5219.30 --> 5221.18] And if you could specifically let me know, +[5221.24 --> 5226.10] because I have zero marketing support from Microsoft. +[5226.52 --> 5229.40] I don't know a single person in PR or their PR firm. +[5229.74 --> 5234.76] So for me to review the Surface 3, I'm going to straight up have to buy it. +[5234.76 --> 5237.94] So if you guys can let me know, like, are you... +[5237.94 --> 5239.86] Because I don't need another laptop. +[5240.54 --> 5242.14] Got the G750JZ, yo. +[5242.56 --> 5244.62] Anyway, I don't need another laptop. +[5244.98 --> 5248.20] So if someone is like, yeah, I would totally buy that off you, Linus, +[5248.24 --> 5250.12] without you having to take a huge hit on it. +[5250.58 --> 5254.80] Or if you guys are like, look, this is totally worth the $1,200 or so dollars +[5254.80 --> 5258.10] you're going to have to spend on a medium spec one to really... +[5258.10 --> 5259.24] Yeah, I know, it's a lot of money. +[5259.24 --> 5261.36] And we really need you to review this. +[5261.44 --> 5262.78] We really need you to talk about this. +[5262.84 --> 5264.60] Guys, let me know how important this is to you. +[5265.04 --> 5266.60] But basically, here it is. +[5266.90 --> 5268.52] The Verge was at the launch event. +[5268.64 --> 5270.20] They've got some pictures of it here. +[5270.52 --> 5273.96] And this looks like what I pretty much asked for +[5273.96 --> 5277.48] back when they launched the original Surface and the Surface RT. +[5277.88 --> 5278.92] It is thinner. +[5279.52 --> 5281.32] The keyboard implementation is better. +[5281.46 --> 5283.92] So they've got a backlit type cover now +[5283.92 --> 5287.10] that actually mounts to the screen in a different way. +[5287.26 --> 5290.86] So you can actually fold it up flat and then lay it against it +[5290.86 --> 5293.10] so that it angles up a little bit at the same time. +[5293.74 --> 5296.32] The touchpad is bigger on the type cover. +[5296.64 --> 5299.32] What they've effectively done is they've made it, +[5299.66 --> 5302.70] well, the battery life is still not quite there. +[5302.78 --> 5304.86] It's about eight hours, which is pretty good. +[5305.20 --> 5308.06] But when you compare that to, what is it, 13 hours on the MacBook Air? +[5308.06 --> 5314.10] Apple is like, ah, I want someone to beat them. +[5314.14 --> 5315.78] Batteries are holding everything back everywhere. +[5315.94 --> 5316.86] Batteries are holding everything back. +[5316.90 --> 5320.50] So anyway, the point is they have pretty much delivered what I asked for +[5320.50 --> 5322.10] when they first launched this device. +[5322.48 --> 5325.72] A longer battery, great power consumption. +[5325.96 --> 5326.60] It's thinner. +[5326.84 --> 5327.76] It's beautiful. +[5327.96 --> 5328.82] It's more functional. +[5329.12 --> 5334.36] And it legitimately replaces both the tablet and the notebook +[5334.36 --> 5336.46] in a way that the original just couldn't do +[5336.46 --> 5339.60] because the changes they've made to the kickstand allow it, +[5339.80 --> 5341.90] instead of just locking into a position or two, +[5342.38 --> 5346.52] it uses a friction mount to go anywhere from 22 to 150 degrees. +[5346.86 --> 5348.56] So you can sit the thing up in your lap +[5348.56 --> 5351.70] and still have it be supported well enough that you can use it that way +[5351.70 --> 5354.18] or you can lay it down flat and right on it +[5354.18 --> 5361.02] with a 256 pressure layer or pressure level stylus. +[5361.62 --> 5364.82] And you can really use it in every possible way. +[5364.82 --> 5367.40] Apparently, the front-facing speakers sound great. +[5367.50 --> 5370.64] This is a real drawback of many devices out there +[5370.64 --> 5373.92] that I just feel like do a crappy job of implementing audio. +[5374.32 --> 5377.66] And I'm glad to see someone other than HTC taking front-facing speakers +[5377.66 --> 5379.12] and how important they are seriously. +[5379.92 --> 5381.84] And honestly, guys, it's faster. +[5382.08 --> 5384.70] It just looks like one seriously cool device. +[5384.80 --> 5386.74] I really like that raise-up that you can do on the type cover. +[5386.74 --> 5391.26] I hope it actually doesn't make it flex down a lot while you're typing +[5391.26 --> 5392.74] because that would not be very good. +[5392.84 --> 5393.12] I don't know. +[5393.16 --> 5395.20] This is the kind of thing that I'd really like to... +[5395.20 --> 5396.14] There's a close-up of the hinge. +[5396.24 --> 5397.10] This is all from The Verge. +[5397.28 --> 5400.06] This is how you can lay it all the way down flat pretty much +[5400.06 --> 5401.26] so you can draw on it. +[5403.48 --> 5404.70] It's really clean-looking, +[5404.96 --> 5408.00] so that surface branding on the back of it is pretty much all you see. +[5408.00 --> 5410.32] It apparently does get a little bit warm in use. +[5410.60 --> 5413.34] I actually like this placement of the Windows button right here +[5413.34 --> 5414.64] rather than the bottom one +[5414.64 --> 5418.00] because when I sit and use a tablet or even a notebook, +[5418.30 --> 5421.96] I'm using my hands or a hand, +[5422.14 --> 5428.08] and this is as good or better always than down here. +[5428.30 --> 5429.04] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[5429.28 --> 5431.76] Where it's more of a like you grab something +[5431.76 --> 5435.94] and you're liable to accidentally press it as often as press it on purpose. +[5435.94 --> 5436.08] Right, yeah. +[5436.08 --> 5440.44] So let's do that Twitter blitz, shall we, guys? +[5440.48 --> 5441.28] We want to hear from you. +[5441.36 --> 5441.92] I feel bad. +[5442.08 --> 5444.76] I feel like we don't do enough Twitter interaction on this show anymore, +[5444.86 --> 5447.48] but we just have so much stuff to talk about. +[5448.68 --> 5449.70] Captain Cake says, +[5449.78 --> 5451.06] Buy one, review it, and return it. +[5451.42 --> 5452.74] Okay, that is a good suggestion, +[5453.00 --> 5454.38] but there is an issue with that, +[5454.46 --> 5456.58] and that's that if something goes wrong +[5456.58 --> 5458.88] and we scratch it or something, +[5459.50 --> 5461.70] then we're in a pretty bad situation. +[5462.56 --> 5464.62] Someone says they would rather see us check out +[5464.62 --> 5465.96] the Lenovo X1 Carbon. +[5466.10 --> 5467.24] So that's from Ryan Jenkins. +[5467.84 --> 5468.36] Greg says, +[5468.44 --> 5469.14] It's really cool, +[5469.28 --> 5471.40] but I don't think the audience would be interested enough. +[5471.50 --> 5472.88] Well, that's the point of this Twitter blitz. +[5473.00 --> 5475.66] Let's find out what the audience thinks about this. +[5475.84 --> 5477.36] Speaking of the audience, +[5477.68 --> 5480.00] there were a couple of things that I had in here +[5480.00 --> 5484.12] that I wanted a straw poll. +[5484.12 --> 5485.00] Okay, one straw poll. +[5485.10 --> 5488.52] Luke, can you create a straw poll on the Infinidex, +[5488.56 --> 5491.14] so that was that omnidirectional treadmill we looked at before, +[5491.48 --> 5492.88] versus augmented reality? +[5493.10 --> 5494.92] Which one you would be more excited about +[5494.92 --> 5497.50] if you could have a full setup of either of them +[5497.50 --> 5499.00] for the same price, let's say, +[5499.18 --> 5500.60] and it supported all the same games? +[5500.78 --> 5503.70] So Infinidex VR versus Infinidex AR? +[5504.16 --> 5507.52] Versus, no, just AR, like, running around out and about. +[5508.18 --> 5510.58] Okay, so let's keep Twitter blitzing here, guys. +[5511.10 --> 5511.54] Someone says, +[5511.64 --> 5512.42] Don't buy it. +[5512.48 --> 5515.20] My Asus TB100 performs probably just as good. +[5515.24 --> 5516.58] If you can borrow it, do that, of course, +[5516.64 --> 5517.68] but it's not worth your own money. +[5518.34 --> 5520.84] Delon's, yeah, I know you want it. +[5520.92 --> 5521.90] Guys, by the way, +[5522.26 --> 5524.48] this is the Delon's +[5524.48 --> 5526.32] who you can do two things for. +[5526.44 --> 5527.16] One of two things. +[5527.22 --> 5528.42] You can either thank him +[5528.42 --> 5531.46] for being the one who does the Wancho table of contents, +[5531.76 --> 5533.34] or you control him +[5533.34 --> 5535.72] for being the one who makes the occasional mistake +[5535.72 --> 5536.94] in the Wancho table of contents, +[5537.18 --> 5539.00] but huge shout out to Delon's +[5539.00 --> 5540.22] because without him, +[5540.22 --> 5542.52] the Wancho takes a lot longer for us to get up +[5542.52 --> 5544.10] because by the end of Friday, +[5544.60 --> 5546.08] Luke and I are just exhausted, +[5546.70 --> 5548.98] and going back and re-watching the show +[5548.98 --> 5550.24] that we just broadcast +[5550.24 --> 5553.70] and, like, creating a table of contents for it +[5553.70 --> 5556.14] is not real high on our list of things +[5556.14 --> 5557.98] that we, like, super awesomely want to do, +[5558.06 --> 5559.40] and Delon's was actually the one +[5559.40 --> 5560.52] who came up with the idea +[5560.52 --> 5563.08] of doing a condensed table of contents +[5563.08 --> 5564.72] and then the super detailed one +[5564.72 --> 5566.98] that you guys can find topic by topic +[5566.98 --> 5568.42] what interests you the most. +[5568.42 --> 5571.26] Hey, Twitch decided to allow me to be a mod again. +[5571.52 --> 5571.82] Oh, cool. +[5571.86 --> 5572.40] That's cool. +[5572.50 --> 5572.80] That's good. +[5572.80 --> 5574.20] I wasn't this entire stream so far. +[5574.44 --> 5575.82] I would like to see the new Surface, +[5575.94 --> 5576.92] but wouldn't be the end of the world +[5576.92 --> 5577.96] if I didn't get one. +[5578.04 --> 5578.28] Okay. +[5578.48 --> 5578.86] All right. +[5579.28 --> 5580.12] Lower your dongers +[5580.12 --> 5581.60] because the mods are perma-banning +[5581.60 --> 5582.72] for flexing dongers. +[5582.72 --> 5585.24] The Surface looks great. +[5585.44 --> 5586.28] Don't have the money now. +[5586.34 --> 5587.48] So much better than terrible. +[5588.12 --> 5590.62] Windows 8.1 is still a real challenge for me. +[5591.32 --> 5591.72] Like, I still... +[5592.92 --> 5593.84] Comissions issues, man. +[5594.04 --> 5594.82] You know what it is? +[5595.54 --> 5597.66] 95, 98% of the time, +[5597.88 --> 5599.30] I'm 100% okay with it, +[5599.68 --> 5602.00] but then when I'm actually in a hurry +[5602.00 --> 5603.02] to get something done +[5603.02 --> 5606.48] and I swipe off the side of my touchpad +[5606.48 --> 5607.52] accidentally +[5607.52 --> 5609.08] when I'm just trying to move the mouse, +[5610.26 --> 5613.32] it really drives me up the wall. +[5613.44 --> 5613.52] Yeah. +[5613.52 --> 5614.46] It really does. +[5614.58 --> 5617.54] In a way that I can't even rationally justify. +[5618.86 --> 5619.14] But... +[5619.14 --> 5621.04] And like when I... +[5621.04 --> 5623.10] When I fire up a new PC +[5623.10 --> 5625.70] and I go to listen to a song +[5625.70 --> 5626.90] or look at a picture +[5626.90 --> 5628.60] and it opens that garbage +[5628.60 --> 5630.28] modern UI application +[5630.28 --> 5631.12] that is just... +[5631.12 --> 5632.22] Less hurdles to jump through. +[5632.36 --> 5632.80] Worthless. +[5633.42 --> 5633.94] I just... +[5633.94 --> 5634.68] On Windows 7. +[5634.70 --> 5635.58] I just go... +[5635.58 --> 5637.98] And I have to sit and wait for it to launch +[5637.98 --> 5639.22] and they're so slow. +[5639.24 --> 5639.94] They're really slow. +[5640.08 --> 5641.24] They're slow to launch +[5641.24 --> 5641.80] and it's just... +[5641.80 --> 5643.14] I know, it's only a few seconds +[5643.14 --> 5644.74] and this is a total first world problem +[5644.74 --> 5645.36] and it's stupid. +[5645.62 --> 5647.44] But it's not slow to launch the desktop app. +[5647.48 --> 5649.32] But it's not slow to launch the desktop app. +[5649.38 --> 5651.40] We're solving a problem that we never had. +[5652.02 --> 5652.24] Anyway. +[5652.76 --> 5655.04] Yes, please do it, says Sebastian. +[5655.04 --> 5655.16] Question. +[5656.08 --> 5657.08] Isn't it funny +[5657.08 --> 5658.08] how you care more about +[5658.08 --> 5659.26] the way your case interior looks +[5659.26 --> 5660.32] than the way your watch looks? +[5660.36 --> 5661.20] What's wrong with my watch? +[5661.76 --> 5662.16] Yeah, really. +[5662.52 --> 5663.18] I like this watch. +[5663.20 --> 5664.66] Actually, a lot of people have asked me +[5664.66 --> 5666.28] but this is a Cogito smartwatch. +[5666.48 --> 5668.26] I haven't spent much time with the app yet +[5668.26 --> 5669.36] so don't run out and buy them +[5669.36 --> 5670.46] just because I'm wearing it yet. +[5670.56 --> 5672.26] I will let you guys know what I think of it. +[5672.58 --> 5674.28] But I've had a lot of people compliment me +[5674.28 --> 5674.84] on this watch +[5674.84 --> 5676.06] to be perfectly honest. +[5677.78 --> 5678.92] More people than the Pebble. +[5679.04 --> 5679.94] With the Pebble, people are like, +[5679.98 --> 5680.46] what is that? +[5680.86 --> 5681.90] With this one, people are like, +[5682.02 --> 5682.66] oh, what's that? +[5682.66 --> 5687.68] Yeah, 0.01 cares about Microsoft hardware. +[5689.70 --> 5691.20] Hashtag, just get Asus to build it. +[5692.50 --> 5693.62] It would be really nice +[5693.62 --> 5695.44] if you review the Surface Pro 3. +[5695.56 --> 5696.88] Already considered buying it, +[5696.96 --> 5697.90] buying the Surface Pro 2. +[5698.18 --> 5698.26] Okay. +[5699.26 --> 5699.70] Someone said, +[5699.74 --> 5700.26] Ant says, +[5700.42 --> 5702.10] review a base Surface 3. +[5702.50 --> 5703.60] That's an interesting angle +[5703.60 --> 5704.62] where we go, +[5704.72 --> 5706.92] okay, here is the starting point +[5706.92 --> 5708.26] because I think most everyone else +[5708.26 --> 5709.02] is going to be looking at +[5709.02 --> 5710.58] high-end or mid-range configurations. +[5710.58 --> 5712.12] Whereas if we go, +[5712.22 --> 5712.98] okay, no, we're going to do +[5712.98 --> 5714.58] like a really good review of like... +[5714.58 --> 5715.48] So this is the Surface 3. +[5715.60 --> 5716.94] By the way, you can also get these things. +[5717.00 --> 5717.36] By the way. +[5717.54 --> 5718.22] You can buy the higher-end models. +[5718.30 --> 5719.92] Go look at other people's reviews +[5719.92 --> 5720.58] if you want to know +[5720.58 --> 5722.84] what like the Core i7 one performs like. +[5723.40 --> 5724.06] That's interesting. +[5724.18 --> 5724.76] It's not a bad idea. +[5725.06 --> 5726.04] It'll also save you some money. +[5727.06 --> 5727.42] Ashley. +[5727.82 --> 5728.88] Okay, you were doing pretty well +[5728.88 --> 5729.34] in this tweet +[5729.34 --> 5730.06] up till the bit about +[5730.06 --> 5731.26] putting 10 gigabit Ethernet +[5731.26 --> 5732.14] on the Surface 4. +[5732.38 --> 5733.94] I don't think that's going +[5733.94 --> 5734.76] to happen so good. +[5735.72 --> 5736.58] Did we just lose +[5736.58 --> 5738.62] a hockey game to the Finns? +[5739.24 --> 5740.28] Is that the joke here? +[5740.58 --> 5741.02] What's going on +[5741.02 --> 5741.72] in the World Championships? +[5741.86 --> 5742.80] I haven't actually looked at it +[5742.80 --> 5743.60] in the last couple of days. +[5744.58 --> 5746.74] I don't think we did last night. +[5748.08 --> 5749.74] Pretty sure we didn't lose last night. +[5750.68 --> 5751.74] Oh, World Championships. +[5751.98 --> 5753.46] Yeah, World Championships hockey. +[5754.06 --> 5754.88] I don't know. +[5755.02 --> 5756.34] I haven't been paying that +[5756.34 --> 5757.40] wanting team kind of... +[5757.40 --> 5758.66] Coach Dave Tippett +[5758.66 --> 5759.54] thought that... +[5759.54 --> 5760.36] Yeah, no. +[5761.08 --> 5761.84] They beat the Finns. +[5762.06 --> 5762.70] Yeah, screw you guys. +[5762.70 --> 5765.34] Okay, I have the Pro 2. +[5765.50 --> 5766.14] It's awesome. +[5766.44 --> 5767.06] Review the Pro 3. +[5767.14 --> 5767.98] Says Biebskidoo, +[5768.40 --> 5769.94] who is my favorite +[5769.94 --> 5771.74] whatever you are. +[5773.36 --> 5774.08] Cool guy. +[5774.44 --> 5775.02] Favorite dude. +[5775.46 --> 5776.94] The Surface is the one +[5776.94 --> 5777.34] to review. +[5777.46 --> 5777.86] Go for it. +[5777.92 --> 5779.02] Okay, so it looks like +[5779.02 --> 5780.10] people straight up +[5780.10 --> 5781.26] really want me to check out +[5781.26 --> 5781.88] the Surface 3. +[5782.02 --> 5783.14] Okay, I'm going to... +[5783.14 --> 5784.10] I'm going to order one today. +[5784.52 --> 5785.60] Okay, I'll order one. +[5786.02 --> 5786.82] And, you know, +[5786.88 --> 5788.00] if someone wants to, +[5788.02 --> 5788.20] you know, +[5788.24 --> 5788.98] buy it off of us +[5788.98 --> 5789.84] on the garage sale, +[5790.08 --> 5790.90] I can promise you +[5790.90 --> 5792.02] there will be a bit of a deal, +[5792.14 --> 5792.82] but it might not be +[5792.82 --> 5793.62] a lot cheaper +[5793.62 --> 5795.16] than, you know, +[5795.24 --> 5795.98] than a Surface 3 +[5795.98 --> 5797.56] that you buy new, +[5797.70 --> 5798.82] but it'll be in great condition. +[5798.90 --> 5799.98] I'll take really good care of it +[5799.98 --> 5801.30] to the best of my ability +[5801.30 --> 5801.82] here, guys. +[5803.66 --> 5804.88] Zach Janus says, +[5804.98 --> 5805.66] why not just get +[5805.66 --> 5806.40] a convertible notebook? +[5806.52 --> 5806.88] You know what? +[5806.88 --> 5807.88] It's a great question. +[5808.32 --> 5810.56] And I was using a Dell XPS 12 +[5810.56 --> 5811.46] for a long time, +[5811.50 --> 5812.68] which is a convertible notebook. +[5812.86 --> 5814.32] The reason I would say +[5814.32 --> 5815.24] that a Surface 3 +[5815.24 --> 5816.10] might make sense +[5816.10 --> 5818.44] is that a convertible notebook +[5818.44 --> 5819.80] is not a tablet, +[5820.34 --> 5821.52] whereas a Surface 3 +[5821.52 --> 5823.00] is a tablet, +[5823.32 --> 5824.82] but it also has +[5824.82 --> 5827.02] so much more capability +[5827.02 --> 5827.82] than a tablet +[5827.82 --> 5829.72] because of the kickstand, +[5829.94 --> 5831.36] because of the stylus, +[5831.50 --> 5832.82] because of the ability +[5832.82 --> 5834.22] to add these keyboard accessories +[5834.22 --> 5835.86] that are well implemented +[5835.86 --> 5836.74] and not kludgy. +[5836.74 --> 5837.60] I also find that +[5837.60 --> 5838.52] this tablet's going to be +[5838.52 --> 5839.64] a lot thinner and smaller. +[5839.82 --> 5840.66] It's much thinner, +[5841.04 --> 5841.74] much lighter, +[5842.14 --> 5843.84] so there are real reasons +[5843.84 --> 5844.88] why Surface makes sense +[5844.88 --> 5848.80] instead of a convertible notebook. +[5849.76 --> 5850.12] Apparently, +[5850.24 --> 5850.78] the i5 model +[5850.78 --> 5851.46] comes out two months +[5851.46 --> 5852.14] sooner than the others, +[5852.24 --> 5853.42] so I guess we might end up +[5853.42 --> 5855.24] just hitting that one, +[5855.30 --> 5855.70] I guess. +[5856.70 --> 5857.42] Philipp says, +[5857.54 --> 5858.00] yeah, yeah, +[5858.00 --> 5858.78] I'll definitely take it +[5858.78 --> 5859.40] after you review it. +[5859.44 --> 5860.04] All right, fair enough. +[5860.54 --> 5861.24] Oh, we've got people +[5861.24 --> 5862.26] asking about the Modus +[5862.26 --> 5862.92] sweepstakes, +[5863.46 --> 5864.02] or geekstakes, +[5864.12 --> 5864.60] excuse me. +[5864.60 --> 5865.74] I think the draw +[5865.74 --> 5866.60] is in eight minutes, +[5866.84 --> 5867.90] unless it was at nine. +[5868.28 --> 5869.06] Shoot, I'm... +[5869.06 --> 5871.10] I'm at a bit of a loss here. +[5871.22 --> 5871.56] Okay, well, +[5871.66 --> 5872.42] either way, guys, +[5872.42 --> 5873.62] go back every weekday +[5873.62 --> 5874.44] and make sure +[5874.44 --> 5876.30] that you go check that out. +[5876.46 --> 5877.38] And thanks again to Modus +[5877.38 --> 5878.90] for sponsoring our show today. +[5879.64 --> 5880.80] Have you seen +[5880.80 --> 5881.42] the metal... +[5882.08 --> 5882.42] metaglasses... +[5883.12 --> 5884.20] space glasses for AR? +[5884.28 --> 5884.78] No, I haven't, +[5884.88 --> 5885.76] but we don't click links +[5885.76 --> 5886.42] on Twitter +[5887.12 --> 5888.08] on the WAN show anymore +[5888.08 --> 5889.26] after some bad experiences. +[5889.26 --> 5891.40] I don't think that's +[5891.40 --> 5892.26] the best still grab +[5892.26 --> 5893.30] of Luke ever. +[5893.60 --> 5893.92] No, no. +[5895.18 --> 5897.32] Okay, so that's about it. +[5897.76 --> 5898.68] Setting aside the money +[5898.68 --> 5901.24] Nintendo and Sony has, +[5901.58 --> 5902.86] what would be the ups and downs +[5902.86 --> 5903.82] of Nintendo +[5903.82 --> 5907.00] straight up buying PlayStation? +[5909.10 --> 5910.40] I'd be down with Nintendo +[5910.40 --> 5911.10] buying PlayStation. +[5911.44 --> 5912.54] They won't at all, +[5912.68 --> 5913.06] for sure. +[5913.06 --> 5913.54] Yeah, because, I mean, +[5913.60 --> 5914.44] the thing is that... +[5914.44 --> 5915.62] It's not in their, like, +[5915.74 --> 5916.54] model at all. +[5916.54 --> 5919.36] The thing that I think people +[5919.36 --> 5922.96] need to get about Nintendo +[5922.96 --> 5925.18] is that they're not having +[5925.18 --> 5926.06] trouble right now +[5926.06 --> 5927.48] because they can't +[5927.48 --> 5929.44] build a powerful gaming console +[5929.44 --> 5931.82] or because they can't +[5931.82 --> 5932.76] pursue the whole +[5932.76 --> 5933.82] third-party AAA... +[5933.82 --> 5934.20] Well, okay, +[5934.24 --> 5934.80] they are having trouble +[5934.80 --> 5935.50] pursuing third-party +[5935.50 --> 5936.28] AAA gaming titles, +[5936.58 --> 5937.58] but it's because +[5937.58 --> 5940.46] of the different approach +[5940.46 --> 5941.46] that they believe +[5942.06 --> 5942.88] in pursuing +[5942.88 --> 5944.06] with, you know, +[5944.24 --> 5945.26] multiple screens +[5945.26 --> 5947.02] and different controller +[5947.02 --> 5947.68] schemas +[5947.68 --> 5948.60] and all that kind of stuff. +[5948.96 --> 5949.94] It's not like Nintendo +[5949.94 --> 5951.12] doesn't know how +[5951.12 --> 5952.20] to build a brick +[5952.20 --> 5952.94] with controllers +[5952.94 --> 5953.70] plugged into it. +[5954.08 --> 5954.86] So they wouldn't +[5954.86 --> 5955.74] buy PlayStation +[5955.74 --> 5956.98] for the sake of +[5956.98 --> 5957.98] the innovation +[5957.98 --> 5959.70] of PS4 +[5959.70 --> 5960.46] being a brick +[5960.46 --> 5961.16] with controllers +[5961.16 --> 5963.08] wirelessly connected +[5963.08 --> 5963.72] to it +[5963.72 --> 5965.08] versus being plugged +[5965.08 --> 5965.46] into it. +[5965.48 --> 5965.96] They have wireless +[5965.96 --> 5966.72] controllers, +[5966.96 --> 5967.46] all Wiimos. +[5967.84 --> 5968.62] So I just think +[5968.62 --> 5969.52] straight up, +[5969.80 --> 5971.08] Nintendo just wouldn't +[5971.08 --> 5971.78] even be interested +[5971.78 --> 5972.74] even if they could +[5972.74 --> 5973.20] afford it. +[5973.34 --> 5973.92] Nope, I don't think +[5973.92 --> 5974.28] so either. +[5974.70 --> 5976.14] And I'm okay with that. +[5976.40 --> 5977.64] I think Wii U +[5977.64 --> 5978.54] and I think +[5978.54 --> 5979.32] 2DS 3DS +[5979.32 --> 5980.42] deserves a lot more +[5980.42 --> 5981.38] attention and a lot +[5981.38 --> 5981.84] more respect +[5981.84 --> 5982.32] than it gets +[5982.32 --> 5983.48] because honestly, +[5984.00 --> 5985.54] 2DS 3DS is really fun. +[5986.34 --> 5987.16] They're integrated +[5987.16 --> 5987.80] super well. +[5988.02 --> 5988.56] That's another thing +[5988.56 --> 5989.22] people don't understand +[5989.22 --> 5989.72] is everyone +[5989.72 --> 5991.86] will complain for days +[5991.86 --> 5993.10] when Battlefield +[5993.10 --> 5994.04] doesn't work +[5994.04 --> 5994.94] off the bat +[5994.94 --> 5996.02] and Titanfall +[5996.02 --> 5996.86] is not very well +[5996.86 --> 5997.62] optimized for PC +[5997.62 --> 5998.30] off the bat +[5998.30 --> 5999.08] and there's like +[5999.08 --> 6000.06] all these problems +[6000.06 --> 6001.12] all over the place. +[6001.12 --> 6002.58] but then when +[6002.58 --> 6003.26] every single +[6003.26 --> 6004.10] Nintendo game +[6004.10 --> 6005.14] like ever +[6005.14 --> 6006.48] works completely +[6006.48 --> 6007.04] flawlessly +[6007.04 --> 6007.86] out of the box +[6007.86 --> 6009.26] as far as I can +[6009.26 --> 6009.68] think of +[6009.68 --> 6010.56] off the top of my head +[6010.56 --> 6012.16] no one seems +[6012.16 --> 6012.90] to really care. +[6013.36 --> 6014.16] I have a Wii U +[6014.16 --> 6015.10] and I have a 2DS +[6015.10 --> 6015.46] they're both +[6015.46 --> 6016.40] absolutely fantastic. +[6016.54 --> 6016.94] Whenever anyone +[6016.94 --> 6017.56] comes over +[6017.56 --> 6018.62] we often end up +[6018.62 --> 6019.24] playing Wii U +[6019.24 --> 6020.26] because PC games +[6020.26 --> 6020.86] are great +[6020.86 --> 6021.76] but they're great +[6021.76 --> 6022.24] when your buddy +[6022.24 --> 6023.30] is still at his house +[6023.30 --> 6024.76] or you're landing +[6024.76 --> 6025.64] and that's actually +[6025.64 --> 6026.24] kind of difficult +[6026.24 --> 6027.54] to do all the time. +[6027.54 --> 6029.08] So yeah +[6029.08 --> 6029.74] I don't know +[6029.74 --> 6031.20] I think they deserve +[6031.20 --> 6031.82] a lot more attention +[6031.82 --> 6032.28] than they get. +[6032.38 --> 6033.34] I mean speaking of +[6033.34 --> 6034.76] their games +[6034.76 --> 6035.70] all working flawlessly +[6035.70 --> 6036.90] the GameSpy servers +[6036.90 --> 6037.78] shutting down +[6037.78 --> 6039.28] was a bit of a problem +[6039.28 --> 6040.80] recently for DS owners +[6040.80 --> 6041.48] who still want to play +[6041.48 --> 6042.06] Mario Kart +[6042.06 --> 6042.90] Wii owners +[6042.90 --> 6043.52] who still want to +[6043.52 --> 6044.08] play their games +[6044.08 --> 6044.34] but +[6044.34 --> 6046.56] there's some good news +[6046.56 --> 6047.36] out of all of this +[6047.36 --> 6048.04] as well +[6048.04 --> 6048.74] this was originally +[6048.74 --> 6049.32] posted by +[6049.32 --> 6050.16] Bonsai99 +[6050.16 --> 6051.04] on the forum +[6051.04 --> 6052.14] and here's a post +[6052.14 --> 6053.46] from Bungie.net +[6053.46 --> 6055.46] Halo PC +[6055.46 --> 6057.52] Combat Evolved +[6057.52 --> 6058.98] and Custom Edition +[6058.98 --> 6061.80] there's a new patch. +[6063.72 --> 6065.06] So the GameSpy servers +[6065.06 --> 6065.64] went down +[6065.64 --> 6066.48] so you weren't going +[6066.48 --> 6067.32] to be able to +[6067.32 --> 6068.78] even look +[6068.78 --> 6069.84] for online servers +[6069.84 --> 6070.52] because the +[6070.52 --> 6071.44] server list +[6071.44 --> 6072.66] server is gone. +[6073.16 --> 6074.04] So some dude +[6074.04 --> 6074.70] in the community +[6074.70 --> 6076.14] coded a new server list +[6076.14 --> 6077.10] Bungie put up +[6077.10 --> 6078.04] some of their own servers +[6078.04 --> 6079.20] to host this stuff +[6079.20 --> 6081.16] and things are rolling again. +[6081.30 --> 6082.00] One of the big things +[6082.00 --> 6082.64] in the new patch +[6082.64 --> 6083.64] was they did a whole bunch +[6083.64 --> 6084.64] of small bug fixes +[6084.64 --> 6085.64] so essentially +[6085.64 --> 6086.80] the game should have died +[6086.80 --> 6087.42] this month. +[6087.84 --> 6088.82] And Bungie was just like +[6088.82 --> 6089.54] nope! +[6089.84 --> 6090.42] Here's patches +[6090.42 --> 6091.40] fixing things +[6091.40 --> 6092.12] here's patches +[6092.12 --> 6093.44] bringing the servers back +[6093.44 --> 6094.64] you guys are good to go. +[6095.26 --> 6096.08] And that's awesome. +[6096.24 --> 6097.60] That's super cool. +[6098.00 --> 6099.30] Like so much more +[6099.30 --> 6100.22] respect for Bungie now. +[6100.26 --> 6100.70] So like +[6100.70 --> 6102.10] it's fixing things like +[6102.10 --> 6103.26] upper boundary +[6103.26 --> 6103.98] on video resolution +[6104.54 --> 6106.30] fixing things like +[6106.30 --> 6107.34] they're even fixing +[6107.34 --> 6108.66] they fixed active camo +[6108.66 --> 6109.66] on Nvidia cards. +[6109.66 --> 6111.74] like they're even fixing +[6111.74 --> 6113.32] like graphical stuff. +[6113.82 --> 6114.96] Never mind crashes +[6114.96 --> 6115.66] or like +[6115.66 --> 6116.96] oh man +[6116.96 --> 6117.76] that is just +[6117.76 --> 6118.80] so cool. +[6119.04 --> 6119.52] There was a bunch +[6119.52 --> 6120.22] of different members +[6120.22 --> 6120.72] of the community +[6120.72 --> 6121.40] that brought up +[6121.40 --> 6122.18] some of these bugs +[6122.18 --> 6123.10] and like different ways +[6123.10 --> 6123.84] that they could fix it +[6123.84 --> 6124.18] and whatnot +[6124.18 --> 6125.66] and that guy in the community +[6125.66 --> 6126.88] coded this list +[6126.88 --> 6127.28] and people +[6127.28 --> 6128.30] I know people +[6128.30 --> 6128.90] are going to come back +[6128.90 --> 6129.22] and be like +[6129.22 --> 6130.36] oh well they kept it up +[6130.36 --> 6130.96] because like +[6130.96 --> 6132.06] strong community focus +[6132.06 --> 6132.88] and the community +[6132.88 --> 6134.32] kind of fixed everything +[6134.32 --> 6134.84] for them +[6134.84 --> 6135.72] doesn't matter. +[6135.88 --> 6136.34] This happens +[6136.34 --> 6137.48] all the time. +[6137.68 --> 6137.80] Yeah. +[6138.10 --> 6139.42] There's super dedicated people +[6139.42 --> 6140.76] in so many different communities +[6140.76 --> 6141.34] it's insane. +[6141.52 --> 6142.76] That ask really nicely +[6142.76 --> 6143.46] really nicely +[6143.46 --> 6144.46] to even be allowed +[6144.46 --> 6145.28] to fix it. +[6145.44 --> 6145.92] Yeah exactly. +[6146.10 --> 6146.84] Yeah this happens +[6146.84 --> 6147.78] all the time. +[6148.02 --> 6148.38] It just +[6148.38 --> 6149.14] it took Bungie +[6149.14 --> 6150.10] to actually accept +[6150.10 --> 6150.68] this help +[6150.68 --> 6151.46] and actually do it +[6151.46 --> 6152.40] and then thank those people +[6152.40 --> 6153.46] which I think is really cool. +[6153.58 --> 6154.40] I think this is just +[6154.40 --> 6155.38] like the coolest +[6155.38 --> 6157.08] most like feeling happy +[6157.08 --> 6158.60] like gaming news +[6158.60 --> 6159.52] that like +[6159.52 --> 6160.02] I just +[6160.02 --> 6161.38] I want to go buy a copy. +[6161.56 --> 6162.18] I want to go back +[6162.18 --> 6162.74] and play Halo. +[6162.80 --> 6164.04] I just want to go buy a copy +[6164.04 --> 6165.66] and like play the heck out of it. +[6165.72 --> 6166.80] Go play through the single player. +[6167.24 --> 6167.52] We should +[6167.52 --> 6168.72] like I've wanted to do this +[6168.72 --> 6169.20] a long time. +[6169.26 --> 6170.20] Okay you know what guys +[6170.20 --> 6171.62] you gotta let us know. +[6171.94 --> 6173.42] You gotta let us know. +[6174.36 --> 6175.48] If we did +[6175.48 --> 6177.46] a very small LAN event +[6177.46 --> 6179.30] in Vancouver +[6179.30 --> 6181.06] would you guys be down +[6181.06 --> 6182.44] to help us cover the costs? +[6182.78 --> 6184.26] It would be a very small LAN event +[6184.26 --> 6185.10] and it wouldn't be like +[6185.10 --> 6186.04] at my house or anything +[6186.04 --> 6187.26] so we would have to actually +[6187.26 --> 6187.86] get a venue +[6187.86 --> 6189.60] so it might not be that cheap. +[6190.06 --> 6190.12] No. +[6190.30 --> 6192.00] But would you guys be down +[6192.00 --> 6193.10] to come and hang with us? +[6193.10 --> 6194.16] I have to say +[6194.16 --> 6195.32] I haven't played +[6195.32 --> 6196.92] much in the way of video games +[6196.92 --> 6197.84] in the last little while +[6197.84 --> 6199.72] and I firmly believe +[6199.72 --> 6201.12] that a LAN is only fun +[6201.12 --> 6202.04] as long as everyone +[6202.04 --> 6203.14] is on the same page +[6203.14 --> 6204.34] and playing the same game +[6204.34 --> 6205.60] so we would publish +[6205.60 --> 6206.78] a games list +[6206.78 --> 6207.88] and we would expect people +[6207.88 --> 6208.30] to come +[6208.30 --> 6209.50] and play those games +[6209.50 --> 6210.42] and have fun +[6210.42 --> 6211.40] and eat some snacks +[6211.40 --> 6212.62] but would you guys be down +[6212.62 --> 6213.92] to come to something like that? +[6214.10 --> 6214.88] Even if +[6214.88 --> 6215.82] it was like +[6215.82 --> 6216.60] full on +[6216.60 --> 6217.66] Nazi mode +[6217.66 --> 6219.04] anyone opens +[6219.04 --> 6219.66] WoW +[6219.66 --> 6220.84] at this LAN +[6220.84 --> 6222.22] we will literally +[6222.22 --> 6223.38] have him +[6223.38 --> 6224.10] pick you up +[6224.10 --> 6225.78] pick up your computer +[6225.78 --> 6226.76] and throw both of you +[6226.76 --> 6227.30] out the door +[6227.30 --> 6228.48] We'll bring my brother too +[6228.48 --> 6228.92] just in case +[6228.92 --> 6229.62] Yeah we'll bring your brother too +[6229.62 --> 6230.54] just in case we need +[6230.54 --> 6231.44] some more like +[6231.44 --> 6232.40] thug muscle +[6232.40 --> 6234.24] but there you go guys +[6234.24 --> 6235.30] would you be down to come +[6235.30 --> 6235.98] let us know +[6235.98 --> 6236.64] on Twitter +[6236.64 --> 6237.62] I'm not going to blitz it +[6237.62 --> 6238.00] right now +[6238.00 --> 6238.78] but I will definitely +[6238.78 --> 6239.56] check it out later +[6239.56 --> 6240.94] and I'd love to see +[6240.94 --> 6241.64] the results of that +[6241.64 --> 6242.06] Stroppel +[6242.06 --> 6243.44] that we created before +[6243.44 --> 6243.84] so here +[6243.84 --> 6244.56] no no I'm just gonna +[6244.56 --> 6246.16] we'll switch over to you here +[6246.16 --> 6247.20] so in theory +[6247.20 --> 6247.52] this will work now +[6247.52 --> 6247.82] Stroppel was having +[6247.82 --> 6250.06] an issue on Firefox +[6250.06 --> 6251.64] but I've got it up in Chrome +[6251.64 --> 6253.06] Way to be Stroppel +[6253.06 --> 6253.96] okay so +[6253.96 --> 6254.32] here we go +[6254.32 --> 6255.88] I did allow multiple votes +[6255.88 --> 6256.24] Seriously? +[6256.46 --> 6257.68] I did allow multiple votes +[6257.68 --> 6258.64] That's how it's gonna be +[6258.64 --> 6259.98] so I made it so that people +[6259.98 --> 6261.36] could vote for multiple things +[6261.36 --> 6262.00] and a lot of people +[6262.00 --> 6263.00] still just decided +[6263.00 --> 6264.06] to vote for one thing +[6264.06 --> 6264.96] and that was +[6264.96 --> 6265.92] the Linus rap battle +[6265.92 --> 6267.40] I got after you +[6267.40 --> 6268.12] for posting like +[6268.12 --> 6268.58] banana +[6268.58 --> 6269.86] and all this other crap +[6269.86 --> 6270.72] and all of our polls +[6270.72 --> 6271.20] so I was like +[6271.20 --> 6271.54] you know what +[6271.54 --> 6271.92] whatever +[6271.92 --> 6272.70] I can do it too +[6272.70 --> 6274.22] so Linus rap battle +[6274.22 --> 6275.96] wins with 70% of the votes +[6275.96 --> 6278.36] and then the rest of it +[6278.36 --> 6280.16] got almost no votes +[6280.16 --> 6281.66] This isn't even like +[6281.66 --> 6283.02] statistically significant +[6283.02 --> 6284.62] Not even close +[6284.62 --> 6286.46] so both the other options +[6286.46 --> 6288.36] got under 20% +[6288.36 --> 6289.46] I hate you +[6289.46 --> 6290.30] Infinidec VR +[6290.30 --> 6291.70] coming in at 17% +[6291.70 --> 6292.40] and AR +[6292.40 --> 6293.98] not even getting 15% +[6293.98 --> 6295.26] coming in at 13% +[6295.26 --> 6296.62] Personally I vote for AR +[6296.62 --> 6297.34] running around +[6297.34 --> 6299.40] but Infinidec VR +[6299.40 --> 6300.50] would be awesome +[6300.50 --> 6301.18] as well +[6301.18 --> 6302.38] and I think the +[6302.38 --> 6303.90] nice smooth experience +[6303.90 --> 6304.78] would probably come +[6304.78 --> 6306.90] first to Infinidec +[6306.90 --> 6308.24] VR style gaming +[6308.24 --> 6309.78] because being

+[6314.24 --> 6314.92] I think is not +[6314.92 --> 6315.44] really going to happen +[6315.44 --> 6316.04] for a little while +[6316.04 --> 6317.58] now it's at 69% +[6317.58 --> 6318.36] that's

It sounds fine to me. +[6.12 --> 7.24] It's fine for some people. +[7.24 --> 11.40] Yeah, apparently it was fine to some people, so I suspect it was more of a Twitch issue than anything else. +[11.40 --> 14.40] But since we're restarting the show, we have to do a very brief thing here. +[14.40 --> 18.96] So we're gonna cover the Intel X99 chipset and their 8-core brand new Extreme Edition 5960X. +[18.96 --> 23.24] Amazon purchased Switch TV for one billion dollars. +[23.24 --> 24.24] One hundred seventy million. +[24.24 --> 26.36] One billion-ish dollars. +[26.36 --> 30.12] Alright, Microsoft is cracking down on fake apps in the Windows Store. +[30.12 --> 32.00] Windows 9 will be free or quite cheap. +[32.00 --> 34.00] And boom, here's the intro. +[42.52 --> 44.52] No, I haven't actually watched this. +[44.52 --> 45.52] Really? +[45.52 --> 47.52] Yeah, like, thought I'd have. +[47.52 --> 48.80] Nicely than I thought it would. +[48.80 --> 50.00] Yeah, it's really good. +[51.68 --> 56.00] Except you need to make an Asian smaller guy instead of the loop on the right there. +[56.36 --> 59.12] Alright, so our sponsors this week are... +[59.12 --> 60.12] What? +[60.12 --> 61.12] What did I do? +[61.12 --> 63.12] Oh, that's sort of terrible. +[63.12 --> 64.12] Okay. +[64.12 --> 66.12] We're gonna have to watch it again, apparently. +[66.12 --> 67.12] No, don't worry. +[67.12 --> 68.12] I got this. +[68.12 --> 71.12] And... +[71.12 --> 72.12] Yay! +[72.12 --> 74.72] Our sponsors this week are 5-4 Club. +[74.72 --> 79.84] They have actually slightly revised their usual deal. +[79.84 --> 82.60] So I will be giving you guys more details. +[82.60 --> 90.60] But instead of the old offer, you may actually get cash money in your box. +[90.60 --> 92.60] Which I think is pretty darn interesting. +[92.60 --> 93.60] Also... +[93.60 --> 94.60] Oh, wow. +[94.60 --> 96.60] I did it again. +[96.60 --> 97.60] That... +[97.60 --> 98.60] That is something. +[98.60 --> 99.60] That is something. +[99.60 --> 101.60] Alright, so... +[101.60 --> 104.60] Also powering the show this week is HyperX. +[104.60 --> 106.36] And we've actually got... +[106.36 --> 107.36] It's the entrance playing. +[107.36 --> 108.36] Yeah, the entrance playing. +[108.36 --> 109.36] Okay, I got this. +[109.36 --> 110.36] I got this. +[110.36 --> 111.36] I got this under control. +[111.36 --> 117.24] This is what happens when I don't sleep and the entire week is a complete disaster for +[117.24 --> 118.24] me. +[118.24 --> 121.24] So, this week the show is also brought to you by HyperX. +[121.24 --> 125.76] We've actually got Luke and Brandon down at PAX Prime. +[125.76 --> 128.92] They are powered by HyperX down there at the show. +[128.92 --> 133.04] And they are gonna be doing a great job of bringing you guys some great content from PAX. +[133.04 --> 139.80] So, one thing to keep in mind guys is that HyperX asked for us to mention their YouTube +[139.80 --> 140.80] channel. +[140.80 --> 143.56] So, that's youtube.com slash KingstonHyperX. +[143.56 --> 145.50] They've got a lot of great gaming content on there. +[145.50 --> 148.72] So, make sure that you check that out. +[148.72 --> 149.72] Alright. +[149.72 --> 151.80] So, uh... +[151.80 --> 153.72] Alright, Twitch chat. +[153.72 --> 154.72] I'm sorry. +[154.72 --> 157.72] We're done with the technical difficulties for now. +[157.72 --> 158.72] Alright. +[158.72 --> 164.76] Our first news topic this week and this is...this was po...this was removed from the forum since +[164.76 --> 168.48] the original post by Marcus underscore UK. +[168.48 --> 174.60] So the article here is from GameSpot and Amazon acquires Twitch in a $1 billion deal. +[174.60 --> 176.54] See GameSpot agrees with me. +[176.54 --> 178.30] $1 billion. +[178.30 --> 185.84] Now, this flies in the face of the original rumors that YouTube was going to acquire Twitch. +[185.84 --> 189.28] And we were actually talking about this in the car on the way back from the office the +[189.28 --> 190.94] other day. +[190.94 --> 194.62] And I think the Amazon acquisition makes sense. +[194.62 --> 198.94] But I think you were saying that YouTube might have been a more...might have been a more +[198.94 --> 201.44] sensible option. +[201.44 --> 204.30] Depending on whose perspective we're talking about. +[204.30 --> 210.30] I think it's better that Amazon bought Twitch just because you don't have that consolidation +[210.30 --> 214.22] of power with regards to video streaming. +[214.22 --> 219.86] I was just playing devil's advocate because Google has acquired a ton of things and they +[219.86 --> 225.30] haven't really ruined them except for like Waze and...what else? +[225.30 --> 230.30] I think there are people who would argue that they've kind of ruined YouTube compared to +[230.30 --> 234.70] the sort of the indie vibe that YouTube had going on at the beginning. +[234.70 --> 238.80] But honestly I think it was going to go that direction eventually anyway because they were +[238.80 --> 241.04] going to have to figure out a monetization model. +[241.04 --> 244.02] It's just that Google figured that out. +[244.02 --> 248.52] And YouTube might have come to a very similar conclusion on their own if they had stayed independent +[248.52 --> 252.10] except that they might not have been able to ever build the kind of infrastructure to +[252.10 --> 257.30] support you know HD and now 4K that Google has managed to build to back it up. +[257.30 --> 260.30] Wait so are you trying to say that YouTube was ruined or wasn't? +[260.30 --> 262.30] I'm trying to say some people say it is. +[262.30 --> 263.30] I personally don't think so. +[263.30 --> 264.30] Yeah they're crazy. +[264.30 --> 270.18] Yeah I mean I think that YouTube has been great for content creators and it's been pretty +[270.18 --> 274.30] darn good with some obvious hiccups like the recent Google Plus integration. +[274.30 --> 276.30] And us not being able to upload anything. +[276.30 --> 280.14] Yeah and the fact that we can't upload anything right now. +[280.14 --> 283.60] But by and large it's better than it used to be. +[283.60 --> 286.60] I mean I used to have issues uploading files all the time. +[286.60 --> 288.60] Now it's like weird when it happens. +[288.60 --> 290.60] Apparently I look awkward. +[290.60 --> 291.60] You look awkward. +[291.60 --> 297.60] I think we both look awkward because the camera is like super awkward and we're far away and +[297.60 --> 298.60] stuff. +[298.60 --> 306.60] But so what would you have seen happening then if Google acquired Twitch instead of Amazon? +[306.60 --> 313.60] I think it would be largely the same just because I don't think either of them want to ruin +[313.60 --> 314.60] a good thing. +[314.60 --> 319.60] Because Twitch is as big as it is just because that's what they do. +[319.60 --> 321.60] They've only been around 3 years. +[321.60 --> 323.60] JustinTV was longer. +[323.60 --> 324.60] That's true. +[324.60 --> 331.60] But the whole game streaming thing has only been around for 3 years on Twitch.tv. +[331.60 --> 334.60] Or Twitch I guess is their current branding. +[334.60 --> 342.60] Which is more reason not to tamper with anything just because who else really understands game +[342.60 --> 345.60] streaming besides Switch and AzubuTV? +[345.60 --> 346.60] Who else? +[346.60 --> 347.60] Nah that's it. +[347.60 --> 348.60] That's pretty much it. +[348.60 --> 354.60] So they can't really bring in their own experience just because they don't have that experience. +[354.60 --> 359.60] So I think by and large either company would have left Twitch alone. +[359.60 --> 365.60] Hard to say because even though Twitch has so much more experience with live game streaming, +[365.60 --> 373.60] I think that if Google acquired them, and this was an opinion that I saw kind of echoed in a number of different places, +[373.60 --> 378.60] I think had Google acquired Twitch, they would have been the little brother of YouTube. +[378.60 --> 385.60] And the YouTube team could claim to have a lot of experience with game streamers because typically archived content +[385.60 --> 390.60] even from big game streamers will do better on YouTube over the long term than it does on Twitch. +[390.60 --> 397.60] In fact Twitch has even revised their archiving policies to delete, well to try to delete most of people's old footage +[397.60 --> 399.60] unless they're saving it as a highlight reel. +[399.60 --> 401.60] Because no one's really watching it. +[401.60 --> 402.60] It's just taking up space. +[402.60 --> 403.60] I watch it. +[403.60 --> 405.60] Okay you watch it. +[405.60 --> 410.60] But would it kill you to go on their YouTube channel to watch it? +[410.60 --> 419.60] Okay well from my perspective, I watch tournaments when they're not in the right time zone. +[419.60 --> 421.60] Or like if I just miss it. +[421.60 --> 429.60] So I'll usually go to that Twitch broadcast channel and watch the pods on there. +[429.60 --> 436.60] Whereas I would have to like YouTube and search some random channel to find... +[436.60 --> 437.60] Right. +[437.60 --> 441.60] You know this is an interesting take on this. +[441.60 --> 447.60] I've got a few people in the Twitch chat suggesting that Amazon was actually buying the streaming technology that Twitch has been using. +[447.60 --> 450.60] I don't know if I buy that. +[450.60 --> 453.60] I mean Amazon's already got their on-demand video. +[453.60 --> 459.60] It's not like they don't have the backbone to stream video. +[459.60 --> 462.60] I really don't think that that's it. +[462.60 --> 467.60] I mean I think that there's probably a trick or two that Twitch has developed over the last few years here. +[467.60 --> 470.60] That is helping them to do what they're doing. +[470.60 --> 476.60] But having actually chatted with someone pretty high up at Twitch around this time last year. +[476.60 --> 480.60] I mean they were brute forcing a lot of it. +[480.60 --> 482.60] At least a year ago. +[482.60 --> 492.60] And there isn't really a way without building data centers all over the place to make streaming much less demanding. +[492.60 --> 495.60] Which happens to be exactly what Amazon has. +[495.60 --> 497.60] And that's why that's a marriage made in heaven. +[497.60 --> 502.60] And mind you it's much the same way that Google and Twitch would have been as well. +[502.60 --> 509.60] Because Google also has data centers all over the place that would have been able to reduce the latency that we all experience with Twitch streams. +[509.60 --> 513.60] As well as potentially increase the quality and reliability of the streams. +[513.60 --> 518.60] So I totally disagree that Amazon bought them for the technology. +[518.60 --> 522.60] I don't think their technology is anything special compared to what Amazon does. +[522.60 --> 529.60] Someone says Edsel stop staring at Linus. He can't resist. +[529.60 --> 532.60] Oh okay fine I'll stare at that. +[532.60 --> 536.60] I'm trying to listen to you and that's the best way to listen to something. +[536.60 --> 538.60] You're trying to listen to me. That's your first mistake. +[538.60 --> 540.60] Yeah I'm just going to zoom this in a little bit. +[543.60 --> 544.60] There we go. +[544.60 --> 546.60] Hopefully that's all. +[546.60 --> 549.60] Wow because the camera's crooked I look super tall. +[549.60 --> 551.60] Which is not the case at all. +[551.60 --> 554.60] I'm actually taller than Linus. +[554.60 --> 557.60] Someone says now you have a baby you look all grown up. +[557.60 --> 559.60] I actually have two. Two kids now. +[559.60 --> 564.60] And I probably look grown up because I look old. +[564.60 --> 567.60] Because I am super super tired this week. +[567.60 --> 569.60] It has been a crazy week. +[569.60 --> 571.60] Should we talk about it a little bit? +[571.60 --> 573.60] Your baby? +[573.60 --> 575.60] No not my baby. The week we've had. +[575.60 --> 578.60] What would you know about my baby? +[578.60 --> 580.60] Uh no name? +[580.60 --> 581.60] No name? +[581.60 --> 582.60] Yeah. +[582.60 --> 584.60] Actually we have named her now. +[584.60 --> 585.60] Really? +[585.60 --> 586.60] Yes. +[586.60 --> 588.60] I basically just gave up. +[588.60 --> 589.60] And Yvonne went with it. +[589.60 --> 590.60] No I'm not gonna. +[590.60 --> 593.60] I don't reveal the kids names on. +[593.60 --> 595.60] I don't reveal the kids names on the stream or anything. +[595.60 --> 596.60] It's Winona. +[596.60 --> 597.60] Yeah. +[597.60 --> 598.60] Yeah it's not Winona. +[598.60 --> 599.60] But I should have been Winona. +[599.60 --> 600.60] Yeah. +[600.60 --> 601.60] We have named the baby. +[601.60 --> 606.60] So we came in on Monday morning. +[606.60 --> 611.60] And since then it's been pretty much a blur. +[611.60 --> 612.60] We have. +[612.60 --> 614.60] Okay so our main office room. +[614.60 --> 615.60] All the editing. +[615.60 --> 619.60] I painted it while you guys were doing arts and crafts. +[619.60 --> 620.60] Wait Monday? +[620.60 --> 621.60] Really? +[621.60 --> 622.60] Yeah. +[622.60 --> 623.60] Yeah we got started Monday. +[623.60 --> 624.60] I think. +[624.60 --> 625.60] Wait what? +[625.60 --> 626.60] No. +[626.60 --> 627.60] It was supposed to be three days. +[627.60 --> 630.60] And today was the 4th wasn't it? +[630.60 --> 631.60] Oh yeah you're right. +[631.60 --> 632.60] What did we do Monday? +[632.60 --> 633.60] So Tuesday. +[633.60 --> 636.60] Well Brandon wasn't back yet. +[636.60 --> 637.60] Whoa. +[637.60 --> 638.60] What did we. +[638.60 --> 643.60] This week feels like it's been two weeks. +[643.60 --> 646.60] Have you been at this for five days? +[646.60 --> 647.60] No. +[647.60 --> 648.60] No no no. +[648.60 --> 649.60] No I don't think so. +[649.60 --> 651.60] Okay anyway. +[651.60 --> 652.60] The point is. +[652.60 --> 653.60] Let's say Tuesday. +[653.60 --> 655.60] Let's assume it was Tuesday. +[655.60 --> 659.60] Tuesday morning we tore apart the office. +[659.60 --> 661.60] So all the workstation PCs. +[661.60 --> 663.60] All the editing machines. +[663.60 --> 667.60] We tore them out of the office and scattered them throughout the building. +[667.60 --> 669.60] Because there was no space for anything. +[669.60 --> 671.60] We piled all the desks in the middle. +[671.60 --> 674.60] And Nick and I painted the room. +[674.60 --> 675.60] Then. +[675.60 --> 678.60] So what were you doing on the first day? +[678.60 --> 681.60] I don't remember. +[681.60 --> 682.60] Like I. +[682.60 --> 684.60] Which was the first day? +[684.60 --> 686.60] Was it Monday or Tuesday? +[686.60 --> 687.60] Tuesday. +[687.60 --> 688.60] Let's say it was Tuesday. +[688.60 --> 689.60] Okay. +[689.60 --> 691.60] Did we build any PCs on the first day? +[691.60 --> 694.60] I thought on the first day. +[694.60 --> 697.60] Luke was drilling holes into things. +[697.60 --> 698.60] Right. +[698.60 --> 700.60] So the cases we picked. +[700.60 --> 703.60] Needed to have two holes drilled in the top of each of them. +[703.60 --> 706.60] Before we could actually install any hardware. +[706.60 --> 708.60] Because there was a clearance issue with the radiators. +[708.60 --> 709.60] In spite of our. +[709.60 --> 710.60] Pre-planning. +[710.60 --> 712.60] That we hoped was going to work. +[712.60 --> 715.60] So Luke spent a lot of time doing that on the first day. +[715.60 --> 718.60] And then I started building some of the computers. +[718.60 --> 719.60] Processors. +[719.60 --> 720.60] Putting processors on motherboards. +[720.60 --> 721.60] Putting processors in. +[721.60 --> 722.60] Yeah. +[722.60 --> 723.60] You helped with that. +[723.60 --> 724.60] Yeah. +[724.60 --> 725.60] Installing RAM. +[725.60 --> 726.60] Power supply. +[726.60 --> 727.60] Power supply. +[727.60 --> 728.60] That was the first day. +[728.60 --> 729.60] Yeah. +[729.60 --> 730.60] That was the first day. +[730.60 --> 731.60] And then second day. +[731.60 --> 732.60] We. +[732.60 --> 733.60] Did we finish the computers the second day? +[733.60 --> 734.60] I think second day we did liquid cooling. +[734.60 --> 735.60] Yeah. +[735.60 --> 736.60] The fittings. +[736.60 --> 737.60] We finished building the PCs. +[737.60 --> 742.60] Which when it's five PCs is actually somewhat time consuming. +[742.60 --> 745.60] Especially when Linus gets abandoned by Luke. +[745.60 --> 749.60] So that he can test Intel's new fourth gen processors. +[749.60 --> 750.60] That second day. +[750.60 --> 752.60] Because Luke helped on the first day. +[752.60 --> 753.60] Yeah. +[753.60 --> 754.60] I think we're getting this. +[754.60 --> 755.60] It's all been a blur. +[755.60 --> 757.60] We've taken so much video. +[757.60 --> 758.60] And. +[758.60 --> 761.60] You promised that the videos about this are going to be awesome. +[761.60 --> 762.60] Right? +[762.60 --> 763.60] Uh. +[763.60 --> 764.60] Now you're on the spot. +[764.60 --> 766.60] You asked if they would be good. +[766.60 --> 767.60] Not awesome. +[767.60 --> 769.60] And I said I would make it good. +[769.60 --> 770.60] Okay. +[770.60 --> 773.60] I guess that's what we're going to have to go with. +[773.60 --> 776.60] We've got people complaining about audio sync issues again. +[776.60 --> 777.60] But. +[777.60 --> 778.60] The reality of it is guys. +[778.60 --> 780.60] Is I think it's just one of those things where. +[780.60 --> 781.60] Yeah. +[781.60 --> 782.60] It's nothing to do with. +[782.60 --> 783.60] And it's just broken DA. +[783.60 --> 784.60] Nope. +[784.60 --> 785.60] No. +[785.60 --> 786.60] No. +[786.60 --> 787.60] Those are out. +[787.60 --> 788.60] Those were released today. +[788.60 --> 790.60] The all new fourth gen. +[790.60 --> 791.60] Eight core. +[791.60 --> 792.60] Extreme edition. +[792.60 --> 793.60] All that good stuff. +[793.60 --> 794.60] So. +[794.60 --> 795.60] Um. +[795.60 --> 798.60] Would it help if I put the computer here? +[798.60 --> 799.60] So that you. +[799.60 --> 802.60] I told you. +[802.60 --> 804.60] It looked like I was staring at your crotch. +[804.60 --> 805.60] Okay. +[805.60 --> 806.60] If I put the computer here. +[806.60 --> 807.60] Maybe that'll. +[807.60 --> 808.60] Maybe that'll help a little bit. +[808.60 --> 809.60] Um. +[809.60 --> 811.60] So on the second day. +[811.60 --> 812.60] We finished building the computers. +[812.60 --> 813.60] And. +[813.60 --> 814.60] I don't know whether it's because. +[814.60 --> 816.60] Swift Tech's fittings are super tight. +[816.60 --> 817.60] Or their tubing. +[817.60 --> 818.60] Is. +[818.60 --> 819.60] A little bit big. +[819.60 --> 821.60] When the weather's really hot. +[821.60 --> 824.60] But we were having a lot of trouble getting fittings on. +[824.60 --> 826.60] And those computers took. +[826.60 --> 828.60] More than a full day. +[828.60 --> 829.60] Of working. +[829.60 --> 830.60] To. +[830.60 --> 831.60] Install fittings in. +[831.60 --> 833.60] And install tubing in. +[833.60 --> 835.60] So then after that. +[835.60 --> 836.60] That's when Nick. +[836.60 --> 837.60] That's when Nick. +[837.60 --> 838.60] Was working on. +[838.60 --> 839.60] Redoing the plan. +[839.60 --> 840.60] To mount the radiator. +[840.60 --> 841.60] To the outside of the house. +[841.60 --> 842.60] Right? +[842.60 --> 843.60] I don't know about that part. +[843.60 --> 844.60] Just because. +[844.60 --> 845.60] I was busy. +[845.60 --> 847.60] Fiddling with the fittings. +[847.60 --> 848.60] The entire time. +[848.60 --> 849.60] Yeah. +[849.60 --> 850.60] Ed was the one. +[850.60 --> 851.60] I actually didn't even know. +[851.60 --> 853.60] How Swift Tech's quick disconnects worked. +[853.60 --> 855.60] And Ed was the one who figured out. +[855.60 --> 856.60] That we have to. +[856.60 --> 857.60] What does it come with? +[857.60 --> 858.60] It comes with a socket. +[858.60 --> 859.60] A G1 quarter socket. +[859.60 --> 861.60] And then we have to put an end cap on. +[861.60 --> 862.60] Instead. +[862.60 --> 863.60] Right? +[863.60 --> 864.60] Yeah. +[864.60 --> 866.60] How did I even figure that out? +[866.60 --> 871.60] I think I may have just been trying to undo the quick disconnect. +[871.60 --> 872.60] And then. +[872.60 --> 873.60] I couldn't figure that out. +[873.60 --> 874.60] And just twisting it. +[874.60 --> 875.60] Things came off. +[875.60 --> 877.60] And I may have picked up the wrong piece. +[877.60 --> 879.60] And tried to put that on. +[879.60 --> 881.60] But it worked out. +[881.60 --> 882.60] Yeah. +[882.60 --> 883.60] Yeah. +[883.60 --> 884.60] So we figured that out. +[884.60 --> 885.60] And then. +[885.60 --> 886.60] During that time. +[886.60 --> 888.60] Nick was realizing. +[888.60 --> 889.60] Along with me. +[889.60 --> 890.60] That our original plan. +[890.60 --> 892.60] For mounting the radiators. +[892.60 --> 893.60] On the fascia board. +[893.60 --> 894.60] Like. +[894.60 --> 895.60] Under the roof overhang. +[895.60 --> 896.60] Was not. +[896.60 --> 897.60] Gonna work. +[897.60 --> 899.60] It was way too big. +[899.60 --> 901.60] And way too heavy. +[901.60 --> 902.60] Like. +[902.60 --> 904.60] That biz was not happening. +[904.60 --> 905.60] So. +[905.60 --> 906.60] Nick had to figure out. +[906.60 --> 907.60] How to. +[907.60 --> 908.60] Build a. +[908.60 --> 909.60] Like a wooden frame. +[909.60 --> 910.60] Around the whole thing. +[910.60 --> 911.60] And then. +[911.60 --> 912.60] Mount the radiators to that. +[912.60 --> 913.60] And then we had to find a way. +[913.60 --> 914.60] To get that on the roof. +[914.60 --> 915.60] And I think that was what we did. +[915.60 --> 916.60] On the third day. +[916.60 --> 917.60] We mounted the. +[917.60 --> 919.60] Radiator to the roof. +[919.60 --> 921.60] In the morning. +[921.60 --> 922.60] Third day. +[922.60 --> 923.60] Yeah. +[923.60 --> 924.60] Wasn't that yesterday though? +[924.60 --> 925.60] Yeah. +[925.60 --> 926.60] Was that third day? +[926.60 --> 927.60] Yeah. +[927.60 --> 928.60] We mounted the radiator yesterday. +[928.60 --> 929.60] Wednesday. +[929.60 --> 930.60] Thursday. +[930.60 --> 931.60] And then today. +[931.60 --> 932.60] Four days. +[932.60 --> 933.60] Yeah. +[933.60 --> 934.60] And then. +[934.60 --> 935.60] The afternoon yesterday. +[935.60 --> 936.60] And today. +[936.60 --> 937.60] We. +[937.60 --> 938.60] Have filled the loop now. +[938.60 --> 939.60] A total of three times. +[939.60 --> 940.60] Due to various. +[940.60 --> 942.60] Leaking and configuration issues. +[942.60 --> 947.60] So that's been our week this week. +[947.60 --> 948.60] We can move on to. +[948.60 --> 949.60] Actually. +[949.60 --> 950.60] I'm going to try to. +[950.60 --> 951.60] I'm going to try to upload this file again. +[951.60 --> 952.60] Just because. +[952.60 --> 953.60] You know. +[953.60 --> 954.60] I can. +[954.60 --> 955.60] I can have a dream. +[955.60 --> 957.60] That maybe YouTube won't be broken. +[957.60 --> 958.60] Uh. +[958.60 --> 960.60] The radiator isn't actually. +[960.60 --> 962.60] On the roof. +[962.60 --> 963.60] Right. +[963.60 --> 964.60] It's uh. +[964.60 --> 965.60] In between the houses. +[965.60 --> 966.60] So. +[966.60 --> 967.60] Here are the houses. +[967.60 --> 968.60] One house. +[968.60 --> 969.60] Our house. +[969.60 --> 970.60] It's like. +[970.60 --> 971.60] Over here. +[971.60 --> 973.60] And no matter where the sun is. +[973.60 --> 974.60] It's actually in the shade. +[974.60 --> 975.60] So. +[975.60 --> 976.60] It's not going to get cooked. +[976.60 --> 977.60] Yeah. +[977.60 --> 978.60] We were actually. +[978.60 --> 979.60] Kind of fortunate. +[979.60 --> 980.60] That there was somewhere sensible. +[980.60 --> 981.60] To put that. +[981.60 --> 982.60] Because. +[982.60 --> 984.60] That wasn't necessarily. +[984.60 --> 985.60] Um. +[985.60 --> 986.60] A thing that we planned. +[986.60 --> 989.60] Why is the piping not. +[989.60 --> 990.60] In the wall. +[990.60 --> 991.60] No way. +[991.60 --> 992.60] Firefox is working. +[992.60 --> 993.60] And. +[993.60 --> 994.60] Chrome isn't. +[994.60 --> 995.60] For our upload. +[995.60 --> 996.60] Brilliant. +[996.60 --> 1000.60] Freaking jokes man. +[1000.60 --> 1001.60] Jokes man. +[1001.60 --> 1004.60] Are we even using distilled water? +[1004.60 --> 1005.60] No we're not. +[1005.60 --> 1006.60] Right? +[1006.60 --> 1007.60] Nope. +[1007.60 --> 1008.60] Yeah. +[1008.60 --> 1009.60] It's from the hose. +[1009.60 --> 1010.60] Cause that was how. +[1010.60 --> 1011.60] The only way we were able to fill it. +[1011.60 --> 1012.60] Um. +[1012.60 --> 1013.60] So. +[1013.60 --> 1014.60] Linus went up. +[1014.60 --> 1015.60] On the ladder. +[1015.60 --> 1016.60] Radiator. +[1016.60 --> 1017.60] We brought up a hose. +[1017.60 --> 1018.60] Into the bathroom. +[1018.60 --> 1019.60] And fill it that way. +[1019.60 --> 1020.60] This might look wrong. +[1020.60 --> 1021.60] That definitely looks all the wrong. +[1021.60 --> 1022.60] Yeah. +[1022.60 --> 1023.60] So that was the only way we could even get water into it. +[1023.60 --> 1024.60] Because we're not using a closed system. +[1024.60 --> 1025.60] It's not sealed. +[1025.60 --> 1026.60] We actually have like a. +[1026.60 --> 1027.60] A fill tube. +[1027.60 --> 1029.60] That goes up above the highest level of the. +[1029.60 --> 1030.60] Of the piping that's in the room. +[1030.60 --> 1031.60] So the only way to get anything in there. +[1031.60 --> 1032.60] Because there's no room to even pour. +[1032.60 --> 1033.60] Is to put the hose in. +[1033.60 --> 1034.60] Because if we brought it down any lower. +[1034.60 --> 1035.60] As soon as the pump stops. +[1035.60 --> 1036.60] The system would back up. +[1036.60 --> 1037.60] And pour water. +[1037.60 --> 1038.60] And pour water. +[1038.60 --> 1039.60] And pour water. +[1039.60 --> 1040.60] And pour water. +[1040.60 --> 1041.60] And pour water. +[1041.60 --> 1042.60] And pour water. +[1042.60 --> 1043.60] And pour water. +[1043.60 --> 1044.60] And pour water. +[1044.60 --> 1045.60] And pour water. +[1045.60 --> 1046.60] And pour water. +[1046.60 --> 1047.60] And pour water. +[1047.60 --> 1048.60] Yeah. +[1048.60 --> 1049.60] Fast. +[1049.60 --> 1050.60] And pour water. +[1050.60 --> 1051.60] And pour water. +[1051.60 --> 1075.36] Bit in the +[1075.36 --> 1076.36] in the box. +[1076.36 --> 1084.24] Exciting. Alright, so why don't we move on to our next topic here. Nvidia will +[1084.24 --> 1090.04] allegedly skip 800 series desktop cards and the next generation will be called +[1090.04 --> 1097.16] 900 series. This was posted by Rock1M1 originally on the Linus Tech Tips forum. +[1097.16 --> 1102.00] So I guess do you want to give the basic facts here? Why don't we just, if you put +[1102.00 --> 1106.28] your leg down, we can put this on both of our our legs then we can both look like +[1106.28 --> 1110.78] we're staring at each other. It was just like a rumor so there's not much to talk +[1110.78 --> 1116.78] about. Yeah, so the fact is the rumor is that in order to align with what was it +[1116.78 --> 1123.04] the notebook naming scheme? They were going to name the notebook line G9 or was it +[1123.04 --> 1128.48] GTX 900? Yeah, or 900M but then they thought that it would be confusing +[1128.48 --> 1134.40] because the desktop was still on 700. And the notebooks are the notebooks were +[1134.40 --> 1139.56] rebranded 800 a little while ago. So they're in this weird position where +[1139.56 --> 1144.24] they've they've done this at times. I mean they've done it right now where the +[1144.24 --> 1148.92] notebook ones are a series ahead of the desktop ones even though they're running +[1148.92 --> 1156.36] this completely the same architecture. But I guess if they found themselves two +[1156.36 --> 1162.06] Gems ahead on mobile that might get extremely confusing. And then or if +[1162.06 --> 1165.36] they're planning to refresh both at the same time then now's a good time to just +[1165.36 --> 1168.72] kind of skip one and catch up. It's not the first time they've done it. There was +[1168.72 --> 1174.52] never a GTX 380. Was that just for mobile? No, there was never. I don't think there was +[1174.52 --> 1180.22] ever a GTX 300 series at all. Because we got... Yeah, they scrapped that. Yeah, yeah I think the +[1180.22 --> 1186.06] rumor was they just completely scrapped the project entirely. Well, the announcement will come... +[1186.06 --> 1201.36] Rumored. Allegedly. Rumored to come on September 9th. Wow, that's really soon. We've got a lot of stuff going on right now with all the new Intel stuff, DDR4. So guys, our first video about the +[1201.36 --> 1220.36] the Intel Haswell E 8 core extreme edition will actually be coming I think Tuesday night. So Luke has run all the benchmarks. I've scripted the video, but we haven't had a single video editing workstation up and running in order to actually make it. +[1220.36 --> 1232.36] So, well there was a laptop, but we were using that to make the videos that we've released over the last couple days. So, yeah, there's been no time. But guys, this thing is a beast. +[1232.36 --> 1249.36] Intel has finally done it. They have caught up to the mainstream platform. I mean, I don't know about the rest of you, but I have found it extremely frustrating that for must be about five years now, you've been able to get better technology +[1249.36 --> 1271.36] by buying into a mainstream platform than by buying into an enthusiast platform. I mean, what's the deal with that? And we're not even just talking about CPU architecture. So ever since the LGA 1156, LGA 1366 days, ever since then, you've been able to get, you know, things like +[1271.36 --> 1288.36] quick sync technology for quick video transcoding, you've been able to get more USB 3 ports, native USB 3 ports, more native SATA 3 connectors, or even native SATA 3 connectors at all back in the X58 days, like Thunderbolt. +[1288.36 --> 1318.34] All this new technology has been coming to the mainstream LGA 1155 and LGA 1150 platforms before we get it on LGA 2011. Well, now all of that changes. There is actually a justifiable reason to go LGA 2011 3. So the CPUs are all more cores. I mean, that was supposed to be a big selling point. Even back with X58 was it can support more than four cores. We had six cores. The problem is that +[1318.34 --> 1348.32] the only one in the consumer space was the 980X and the 990X and Xeons, I guess. But these are not really consumer grade price points. They were $1,000 CPUs. So everyone just went with quad cores on the mainstream platform because a few more PCI Express lanes and triple channel or quad channel memory is not enough to justify a CPU architecture that is inherently anywhere from 8 to 15% slower, depending on the +[1348.32 --> 1377.32] depending on which generational gap we're looking at, regardless of how much memory bandwidth it has. So now, with LGA 2011 3, we are getting the same CPU architecture. So it's Haswell or Haswell E. But basically Haswell E is just Haswell with more Haswells. We are getting DDR4, which right now is very expensive for not much of a performance gain, but in the future will give us much higher speed memory. +[1377.32 --> 1405.32] We are getting quad channel memory. We are getting more PCI Express lanes. So 40 on the high end chips. And then I believe, don't quote me on this, I believe it's either 26 or 28 PCI Express lanes on the lower end chip. We are getting the same feature set. So we can get Thunderbolt enabled motherboards, which is really awesome. Like the X99 Deluxe from Asus has that Thunderbolt header. So you can add their Thunderbolt 2 expansion card. We are getting the works. And it is... +[1405.32 --> 1406.32] What's up? +[1406.32 --> 1407.32] What's up? +[1407.32 --> 1409.32] No, people are saying I'm quiet. +[1409.32 --> 1410.32] Oh, they're quiet. Sorry. +[1410.32 --> 1413.32] But you kind of got on the whole Intel... +[1413.32 --> 1414.32] Yeah. +[1414.32 --> 1432.32] I'm on kind of a thing because the problem with LGA 2011 was there was one CPU that was within reach for general consumers. And it was either the 3820K or the 4820K for the last couple of generations. The problem was that was a quad-core chip. +[1432.32 --> 1447.32] It was a quad-core chip that was more expensive on a more expensive platform with more expensive RAM for literally no performance improvement unless you really need the extra memory bandwidth or you really need a few more PCI Express lanes. +[1447.32 --> 1466.32] Which most people don't need unless they also need more processing cores. So in order to even get a sensible configuration on LGA 2011 you were spending 600 plus dollars on your chip. Not exactly compelling sort of you know gamer type of price point. +[1466.32 --> 1496.30] Well now on LGA 2011 3 for around 400 bucks you can get a 6 core. So all of a sudden the entire Intel lineup makes sense again. So on the mainstream you got quad-cores up to nice high clocked ones like their new Devil's Canyon. The 4790K. Then you pay another... I guess it's around another 75 to 100 dollars. You get two more cores plus a more robust +[1496.30 --> 1511.30] enthusiast grade platform and DDR4 support. Then beyond that you get a few more PCI Express lanes. Although I think that lower end one is going to be the more appealing one for most enthusiasts. And then at the very high end there's the extreme edition. The whole thing finally makes sense again. +[1511.30 --> 1540.30] So that's what I'm excited about. And yeah we've got people talking about it in Twitch chat. That 6 core for 389 looks like a good CPU for the money. Damn right. Because even though single threaded performance isn't going to be any better. Overclocking is solid. DDR4 is going to help a little bit. And if you need the extra cores. Like let's say you want to, I don't know, output videos while you game. Then you will have it. Someone says hire Luke back please. +[1540.30 --> 1568.12] Linus everyone is ignoring you and staring at Edsel. Luke is not fired. Well not anymore than he's usually fired. Luke is at PAX. So he was driving last night and he's doing show coverage right now. So he and Brandon are doing a great job of that presumably. They're asking him to poke me. They always do this. They do this with Luke too. Luke poke Linus. +[1568.12 --> 1577.82] Why is this room so hot? As if I'm not also looking at the Twitch chat. You know what? This isn't nearly as hot as it usually is. We have a fan blowing and we have the window open. +[1577.94 --> 1585.54] The window's not open. The window's not open. Oh. You're going to want to open that window. That explains why it's so hot in here. +[1585.54 --> 1602.48] Oh. I love this show. Alright. So in other news that I suspect almost nobody cared about, Origin PC and AMD have officially made up. +[1602.84 --> 1610.90] So Origin will once again give buyers the option to use AMD cards in their Origin PCs. This was posted by huanwu26 on the forum. +[1610.90 --> 1620.20] Did you even hear about this? No. But I read up on what the comments said and apparently Origin PC just got butt hurt. +[1620.80 --> 1627.06] Is that right? Just because they didn't, they weren't informed by AMD about the Hawaii GPU launch. +[1627.22 --> 1628.76] Okay. So there's a couple of things. +[1628.76 --> 1642.02] So rumor number one is that Nvidia had a program where they paid Origin copious amounts of money to not sell AMD. +[1642.26 --> 1642.98] But that's just a rumor. +[1643.32 --> 1648.46] But that is just a rumor. Nvidia has come out and said that's not true. +[1648.46 --> 1652.94] So that's all we know about that. +[1653.48 --> 1660.36] What I do know is that Origin was not at the AMD Hawaii GPU event. +[1660.36 --> 1675.78] And Main Gear PC had a demo system up running Hawaii GPUs at the event when Origin did not allegedly have any access to said GPU. +[1675.78 --> 1682.22] So the rumor is that Origin basically was super upset about that and was like, +[1682.36 --> 1685.62] What? You don't want us to sell your GPUs? Fine. We're not going to sell your GPUs anyway. +[1686.26 --> 1695.48] So apparently they have kissed and made up and AMD apologized, which, you know, I think was probably merited. +[1695.48 --> 1703.42] Because it's one thing if you invite, you know, all your system builder partners to come and showcase their rigs. +[1703.52 --> 1707.96] It's another if you pick one favorite one and then leave all the others out. +[1708.30 --> 1709.34] Or even one of the others out. +[1709.36 --> 1710.22] Maybe it's a budget concern. +[1711.14 --> 1715.88] I don't think so. I mean, that Hawaii event cost a fortune. +[1716.42 --> 1720.30] Maybe that's why there was a budget issue. Just getting everyone there. +[1720.68 --> 1722.78] They blew it all on Linus. +[1722.78 --> 1729.04] Wow. I mean, they had, I think they had over a hundred tech journalists at that event. +[1730.70 --> 1736.62] So they could have just not invited me and Austin and they could have probably afforded to have Origin there. +[1736.82 --> 1738.52] And then this whole thing could have been avoided. +[1739.82 --> 1742.40] But who's more important, really? +[1743.02 --> 1743.66] Me and Austin? +[1743.80 --> 1744.06] Yeah. +[1744.44 --> 1745.36] Or Origin PC? +[1746.36 --> 1747.66] I think we have to do a straw poll. +[1748.62 --> 1749.74] Straw poll time, guys. +[1749.74 --> 1751.66] Straw poll dot. +[1752.18 --> 1754.18] Do you want to see what I'm typing? You can look at my crotch. +[1754.92 --> 1755.60] There we go. +[1756.98 --> 1759.06] This is me looking at the laptop. +[1759.60 --> 1761.26] And this is me looking at his crotch. +[1761.66 --> 1762.48] There's a difference. +[1764.38 --> 1765.52] Linus and Austin. +[1766.74 --> 1768.12] Origin PC. +[1768.86 --> 1773.72] You know what's funny is we're actually going to be covering a really cool new product from Origin at the show. +[1773.72 --> 1775.88] I'm not down on Origin at all. +[1775.94 --> 1776.52] They're cool guys. +[1776.60 --> 1777.36] They have great products. +[1777.84 --> 1780.84] It's just having some fun at their expense right now. +[1781.98 --> 1782.46] All right. +[1782.48 --> 1782.80] Here we go. +[1782.90 --> 1783.16] Here we go. +[1783.54 --> 1784.08] I'm sorry? +[1784.30 --> 1784.96] You're not logged in. +[1785.68 --> 1786.14] Yeah, there you go. +[1786.16 --> 1786.66] What the deuce? +[1790.72 --> 1791.58] All right, guys. +[1791.66 --> 1792.94] I'm sharing this with you now. +[1792.94 --> 1795.46] I'm trying to. +[1795.98 --> 1797.04] Trying desperately to. +[1797.36 --> 1803.80] You know, I'm actually really excited about the technological improvements that I think the Amazon acquisition is going to bring to Twitch. +[1804.24 --> 1806.36] What do you think it's going to change? +[1806.46 --> 1811.82] I think it will improve reliability because Amazon is reliable. +[1812.70 --> 1815.78] I mean, AWS is reliable. +[1815.78 --> 1822.42] Except for those times that it has gone down and led to dozens of sites being offline. +[1823.12 --> 1823.36] Okay. +[1823.92 --> 1829.54] When AWS has a problem, I think the news about it gets amplified. +[1830.08 --> 1835.06] I don't think that's because AWS has tons of problems compared to other services. +[1835.56 --> 1842.38] I think it's just that because they host so much, it's a lot more noticeable when there's some kind of an issue. +[1842.38 --> 1850.46] I think, hmm, I think that might be an issue in itself. +[1850.96 --> 1862.64] Just because if Twitch goes down with, like, Amazon hosting it, and, like, ten other sites that you might go to also go down. +[1863.02 --> 1863.50] Right. +[1863.66 --> 1864.54] You know, what are you left with? +[1865.06 --> 1868.52] Whereas if those go down, you still have Twitch, so you can watch us. +[1868.52 --> 1876.26] Well, I suspect that they will be, I mean, unless, you know, an entire data center loses power and is underwater or something like that, +[1876.32 --> 1879.18] I suspect you won't see an outright outage of something like Twitch. +[1879.44 --> 1883.80] You might see the service slow down in much the same way that we often see happen now. +[1883.82 --> 1884.58] But it has happened. +[1885.18 --> 1885.46] Right. +[1886.40 --> 1886.80] Right? +[1887.64 --> 1888.16] Hasn't it? +[1888.74 --> 1889.30] Pretty sure. +[1889.88 --> 1892.16] Where it's like, oh, blah, blah, blah, it's down. +[1892.16 --> 1897.16] And it all leads to Amazon being down. +[1897.52 --> 1898.10] Very rare. +[1898.46 --> 1905.02] But I think the thing we can all agree on is that Linus and Austin were much more important to invite to the Hawaii event than Origin PC. +[1905.58 --> 1907.56] So we're really sorry about that, Origin. +[1907.94 --> 1910.28] You know, you guys tried. +[1910.90 --> 1914.54] You know, you tried to be as cool as me and Austin, but unfortunately that wasn't going to happen. +[1914.54 --> 1916.04] All right. +[1916.42 --> 1917.90] What do we got for our next topic? +[1918.30 --> 1918.68] Aha! +[1919.60 --> 1924.06] Valve will optimize their streaming service with NVIDIA hardware. +[1924.70 --> 1926.66] So this is from the NVIDIA blog. +[1926.84 --> 1929.08] Let's go ahead and share my screen with you guys here. +[1930.54 --> 1931.36] There we go. +[1931.84 --> 1935.04] Valve and NVIDIA just made game streaming better than ever. +[1935.22 --> 1940.68] Last week, Valve officially released support for hardware encoding on NVIDIA GeForce GPUs in the Steam client. +[1940.68 --> 1945.20] Paired the support with one of the latest GeForce GTX GPUs and you can play remotely from your PC. +[1945.32 --> 1948.68] Connected to any Steam-enabled system in your home at resolutions of up to 1080p. +[1950.98 --> 1959.22] So, I think this is kind of NVIDIA making a lot of noise about something that was bound to happen eventually +[1959.22 --> 1963.28] and really not that different from much anything else anyhow. +[1963.66 --> 1964.80] But it's great. +[1965.92 --> 1967.76] I mean, have you tried Steam in-home streaming? +[1968.06 --> 1968.46] No. +[1968.66 --> 1968.94] No. +[1968.94 --> 1969.34] Okay. +[1969.60 --> 1971.38] It is awesome. +[1972.10 --> 1978.68] And I've actually spent a little bit of time on Steam chat with the lead dev for Steam in-home streaming. +[1978.68 --> 1986.76] And I was chatting to him about sort of video encoding and decoding and what they're doing with respect to lowering latency. +[1987.56 --> 2000.38] And it's absolutely fascinating because they basically have to re-tackle it from a different angle for every different combination of encoders and decoders +[2000.38 --> 2007.88] in order to make sure that everything is compatible and everything not only works but is extremely low latency. +[2007.88 --> 2013.16] So, you don't feel that network lag when you move the keyboard or when you press the keyboard or move the mouse. +[2013.16 --> 2015.10] What do I play over steam in-home streaming? +[2015.10 --> 2016.32] Almost anything. +[2016.32 --> 2018.10] I've even played FPS games. +[2018.10 --> 2021.30] Is that to the shield or...? +[2021.30 --> 2021.66] No. +[2021.66 --> 2022.66] No. +[2022.66 --> 2023.66] No. +[2023.66 --> 2024.66] No. +[2024.66 --> 2025.66] No. +[2025.66 --> 2026.66] No. +[2026.66 --> 2027.66] No. +[2027.66 --> 2028.66] No. +[2028.66 --> 2029.66] No. +[2029.66 --> 2030.66] No. +[2030.66 --> 2031.66] No. +[2031.66 --> 2032.66] No. +[2032.66 --> 2033.66] No. +[2033.66 --> 2034.66] No. +[2034.66 --> 2035.66] No. +[2035.66 --> 2036.66] No. +[2036.66 --> 2037.66] No. +[2037.66 --> 2038.66] No. +[2038.66 --> 2039.66] No. +[2039.66 --> 2040.66] No. +[2040.66 --> 2041.66] No. +[2041.66 --> 2043.66] Let's take a look back. +[2043.66 --> 2048.54] had their own technology where it was like, okay, you need a GeForce GPU, you got to install +[2048.54 --> 2054.52] GeForce Experience on your PC, you got to have an NVIDIA Shield branded device, so whether +[2054.52 --> 2059.90] it's a portable handheld or the tablet, and you got to have a supported router, and that +[2059.90 --> 2064.92] is it. You plug in all these things, and then all the check marks come on and it works. +[2064.92 --> 2072.42] So I kind of saw that as a potential problem compared to Valve's solution, which is, okay, +[2072.42 --> 2077.80] do you have a graphics card? Great. Do you have a CPU? Also great. Do you have some other +[2077.80 --> 2085.08] thing? Great. It works. Except the other thing has to run Steam, and the first thing has to +[2085.08 --> 2089.64] run Steam as well. And then depending on the hardware, you were going to either have a really +[2089.64 --> 2094.14] great experience if you had nice fast hardware encoding and decoding, or you were going to +[2094.14 --> 2102.30] have a super crummy experience. So for example, LGA 1156 CPUs were available in either dual core +[2102.30 --> 2110.46] with onboard graphics or quad core with no onboard graphics configurations. The dual core would +[2110.46 --> 2117.96] have been able to support hardware accelerated decoding. The quad core could not. So there +[2117.96 --> 2121.74] was some tricky stuff with respect to making sure you had a configuration that was going +[2121.74 --> 2127.30] to work with Steam and home streaming. So now, seeing NVIDIA and Valve work together on this, +[2127.30 --> 2131.62] I now have complete confidence that whether you're going to run Windows or you're going +[2131.62 --> 2136.84] to run SteamOS... How about people who run AMD? People who run AMD are still going to be okay, +[2136.84 --> 2142.00] because Valve is going to work with AMD as well. Because AMD doesn't even have a competing solution. +[2142.00 --> 2147.24] They don't have FreeStream or whatever it is they would call something like that. +[2147.24 --> 2153.42] You think they will? You know they would. Because so many people have actually just gone with NVIDIA +[2153.42 --> 2161.58] and completely abandoned AMD. It's funny you mention that, because the market share isn't that much +[2161.58 --> 2169.34] different than it was five years ago. AMD has always kind of been in that 20 to 35% range of the discrete +[2169.34 --> 2180.70] desktop GPU market. That's all they really got. AMD FreeStream. We have to start that. We have to make that happen. +[2180.70 --> 2188.70] We have to tell AMD that they have to have like a free old handheld, and then they have to have like +[2188.70 --> 2195.10] AMD FreeStream. And that should be awesome for the AMD people. +[2197.34 --> 2202.70] I'd be really interested to see Valve. I mean, I'm hoping that this is an announcement they make in the +[2202.70 --> 2208.54] next six months to a year. But it would put the final nail in the NVIDIA GameStream coffin for me, +[2208.54 --> 2218.46] if Valve released an Android Steam client. And I see them potentially heading this way already. +[2218.46 --> 2222.70] They ported Portal to Android. They ported Half-Life 2 to Android. +[2222.70 --> 2224.70] They already have a Steam app. +[2224.70 --> 2233.42] Steam app. So how far are we away from Steam being your gaming hub, potentially on Android as well, +[2233.42 --> 2236.46] with all of these other fantastic Steam features? +[2236.46 --> 2239.02] Like running natively on Android or being streamed? +[2239.82 --> 2245.98] Running natively on Android. That's what I'd like to see. Because then, with Valve behind it, I mean, +[2245.98 --> 2252.54] all the respect in the world to the Limelight guys. Every time I've used Limelight, the latency has not +[2252.54 --> 2258.94] been comparable to NVIDIA GameStream. Valve, on the other hand, I have faith that they could make that +[2258.94 --> 2267.18] happen. And they could make streaming from your PC, AMD powered, NVIDIA powered, Intel onboard powered, +[2267.18 --> 2273.10] who cares? I think they could make that a great experience streaming to any device that has a beefy enough +[2273.10 --> 2277.98] H.264 decoder chip onboard. Apparently NVIDIA did the ports. +[2279.26 --> 2285.58] NVIDIA did the ports themselves? Don't think so. I know that NVIDIA was deeply involved in the ports, +[2285.58 --> 2291.26] but Valve was also involved in porting those games. And even then, I mean, the fact that Valve was even +[2291.26 --> 2300.46] willing to entertain that... Hmm? Hmm? I don't know. We'll see. I mean, it's gonna be, it's gonna be a big, +[2300.46 --> 2309.10] it's gonna be a big battle for what is the next gaming platform of choice beyond the PC. And beyond, +[2309.10 --> 2313.98] really not so much the PC, because I don't think the PC is going anywhere, but beyond the console. +[2313.98 --> 2320.46] It's either gonna be some type of lightweight PC, something like an Alienware Alpha, or something like, +[2320.46 --> 2326.94] any other sort of lightweight desktop type machine running SteamOS, or some other Linux derivative, +[2326.94 --> 2333.98] or even Windows. Or, it's gonna be Android. And if you look at the overall strategy, Valve and NVIDIA +[2333.98 --> 2337.98] both obviously believe in different things here, with Valve thinking we're heading the direction of +[2337.98 --> 2342.86] Steam PCs, or whatever they want to call them, and NVIDIA thinking we're headed towards Android. +[2342.86 --> 2348.38] But I don't think either of them really minds if it's the other one, or some mix of the two, +[2348.38 --> 2353.02] because NVIDIA can still sell you GPUs over here, and Valve can still sell you games over here. +[2354.54 --> 2358.62] So... I wasn't listening at all, I was reading Twitch chat. +[2358.62 --> 2361.58] Did they say anything interesting? Or are they just telling you to poke me more? +[2363.18 --> 2364.54] Something about your crotch, maybe? +[2364.54 --> 2373.18] Ah, yes, my crotch. My crotch is definitely one of the top subjects of discussion on the stream today. +[2374.62 --> 2381.26] Love it. So, originally posted by Mech777, the article is from hardware360.com. +[2381.82 --> 2384.22] I'm just gonna go ahead and fire this baby up here. +[2384.22 --> 2389.90] Witcher 3 dev promises only 30 FPS on consoles. +[2392.70 --> 2394.14] Wah wah. +[2394.14 --> 2396.86] Although, the funny thing about this is that... +[2396.86 --> 2403.58] Ah, they basically said, okay, we're gonna be aiming for the highest resolution possible, +[2404.54 --> 2411.82] but full HD 1080p would likely not be possible, and the only thing they could promise was 30 FPS. +[2411.82 --> 2418.54] So, essentially, even though, you know, there have been some complaints about there being a console release, +[2418.54 --> 2427.02] at least what the, you know, PC Master Race subreddit can take some consolation in, +[2427.02 --> 2431.82] is the fact that the experience on the console is going to be significantly degraded. +[2431.82 --> 2433.50] Is David still here? +[2434.54 --> 2434.86] David? +[2434.86 --> 2435.42] Yeah. +[2435.42 --> 2436.70] Yeah, he is. +[2436.70 --> 2438.54] Can you get the door when it rings in a minute? +[2438.54 --> 2438.94] Okay. +[2438.94 --> 2439.66] Thank you. +[2439.66 --> 2441.82] UPS is outside. +[2441.82 --> 2448.54] I think they've got a, uh, cooler master power supply for Edsel's new dual Titan 12 core editing workstation. +[2448.54 --> 2449.26] Is that what it is? +[2449.26 --> 2449.74] Ah. +[2450.22 --> 2451.74] Yeah, that's your new power supply, man. +[2452.22 --> 2452.94] And something else. +[2452.94 --> 2453.66] I think that's one. +[2453.66 --> 2455.74] Ah, yeah, David's gonna, David's gonna grab it. +[2455.74 --> 2457.02] You should say hi to the UPS guy. +[2457.74 --> 2458.70] I don't think you can hear me. +[2458.70 --> 2460.14] I think he's got his Bluetooth headset in. +[2461.58 --> 2463.42] Have you ever really gotten into a Witcher game? +[2464.14 --> 2464.46] Yeah. +[2464.46 --> 2465.82] I love the Witcher games. +[2465.82 --> 2466.46] Okay. +[2466.46 --> 2467.82] Tell me what's appealing about them. +[2467.82 --> 2468.54] I've tried. +[2468.54 --> 2468.94] All right. +[2468.94 --> 2470.62] With both Witcher 1 and Witcher 2. +[2471.50 --> 2472.22] Enlighten me. +[2472.22 --> 2481.66] I find that the character interactions are above the standard that you might be used to for most games. +[2482.30 --> 2483.98] Uh, the main character is actually kind of shitty. +[2484.54 --> 2485.98] Like, no offense. +[2486.46 --> 2490.94] No offense to the voice actor or the writers, but... +[2490.94 --> 2493.74] Isn't that by default, isn't that who you just offended? +[2494.62 --> 2496.54] Saying no offense doesn't make it unoffensive. +[2496.54 --> 2497.10] Okay, fine. +[2497.98 --> 2505.02] Full offense to anyone involved, but Geralt is kind of a shitty character. +[2505.66 --> 2507.42] He's always, like, deadpan and... +[2508.46 --> 2510.62] I don't know, he's just not a very good character. +[2510.62 --> 2517.02] But everyone else is a good character and they develop and, like, their interactions with, uh, +[2517.02 --> 2521.42] you are interesting and, like, it's all based on novels. +[2521.90 --> 2524.62] So, like, they are actually fleshed out. +[2524.62 --> 2531.98] And, uh, just, like, playing in that, that world that actually exists in detail somewhere, +[2533.10 --> 2535.66] uh, is nicer than other games. +[2535.98 --> 2537.26] That's, that's what I like about it. +[2537.26 --> 2540.30] Like, how they create their creatures. +[2540.30 --> 2541.18] They have lore. +[2541.18 --> 2543.74] You can read up on them, so on and so forth. +[2543.74 --> 2546.46] Hey, David, could we actually get those? +[2546.46 --> 2547.98] Oh, for you not? +[2547.98 --> 2548.46] Those things? +[2548.46 --> 2549.10] Yeah, do you mind? +[2549.10 --> 2550.70] I just want to find out what this is. +[2550.70 --> 2556.14] I'm hoping it's, uh, Dominator Platinum DDR4 and we can show that to you guys. +[2556.14 --> 2557.10] Mm-hmm. +[2557.10 --> 2563.50] Okay, because I have, I've tried both times and within, actually, the funny thing is with Witcher 2, +[2563.90 --> 2568.86] I even got, like, an hour and a half in because I was looking for a consistent benchmarking spot +[2569.42 --> 2574.30] and I just, I did not find it compelling at all. +[2574.30 --> 2576.22] Oh, thank you, sir. +[2576.22 --> 2578.54] Well, do you like, uh, fantasy RPGs anyway? +[2579.50 --> 2581.42] I made it all the way through Dragon Age. +[2583.02 --> 2583.34] One? +[2584.70 --> 2589.98] Uh, yeah, Dragon Age 2 I did not find nearly as compelling. +[2589.98 --> 2592.62] That was kind of shitty compared to, uh, this one. +[2592.62 --> 2594.38] Dragon Age 1 was really great, though. +[2594.38 --> 2595.26] I really enjoyed it. +[2595.26 --> 2596.30] I don't have a knife. +[2597.66 --> 2598.06] I do. +[2598.06 --> 2598.62] What is this? +[2599.42 --> 2599.98] Who's it from? +[2599.98 --> 2604.86] Ooh, it is from Corsair, but I don't know what it is. +[2604.86 --> 2607.10] It doesn't feel heavy enough to be Dominator Platinums. +[2607.10 --> 2609.42] Quick chat, guess what it is. +[2612.06 --> 2614.22] Let's play a guessing game, live unboxing. +[2614.22 --> 2617.02] Okay. +[2617.02 --> 2618.78] Dun-dun-dun. +[2618.78 --> 2620.78] Dun-dun-dun-dun. +[2620.78 --> 2622.06] Dun-dun-dun-dun. +[2622.06 --> 2623.42] Dun-dun-dun-dun. +[2623.42 --> 2625.26] Am I not supposed to swear? +[2625.26 --> 2626.22] I don't care. +[2626.22 --> 2626.46] I don't care. +[2626.46 --> 2627.18] Okay. +[2627.18 --> 2630.22] Try not to drop, drop F-bombs all over the place, you know? +[2631.34 --> 2634.06] Oh, it's the new, um, Corsair Link thing. +[2634.62 --> 2634.94] Cool. +[2635.82 --> 2639.66] So, this is supposedly a pretty big improvement over the old one. +[2639.66 --> 2640.30] Wow. +[2640.30 --> 2642.06] It's much lower profile. +[2642.06 --> 2644.06] I don't know how much they've shown of this yet, +[2644.06 --> 2646.70] so I'm gonna just kind of put that back in the box for now. +[2647.34 --> 2648.30] But, uh, cool. +[2648.94 --> 2650.62] So, we're definitely gonna check that out. +[2651.90 --> 2653.10] And, uh, then the other one. +[2653.10 --> 2655.74] Here, you wanna do the honors? +[2655.74 --> 2657.18] I like how you just toss things. +[2657.18 --> 2660.14] Uh, it's not fragile. +[2660.14 --> 2660.78] It's Corsair. +[2660.78 --> 2662.86] It's made by Corsair, so it's pretty good. +[2665.10 --> 2666.06] Unlikely to break. +[2666.06 --> 2669.02] We've actually thrown Corsair power supplies out of, +[2669.02 --> 2671.42] out of cars and dropped them off roofs. +[2671.42 --> 2673.58] Speaking of great power supplies, though, +[2674.86 --> 2678.86] this is one of the finest power supplies available on the market. +[2678.86 --> 2682.62] 80 plus platinum, 1200 watt, fully modular. +[2682.62 --> 2685.26] So, this is a V-Series power supply from Cooler Master, +[2685.26 --> 2691.98] because we realized, as we were building the rigs for the whole room liquid cooling setup, +[2691.98 --> 2695.34] that we had asked Cooler Master for 750 watt power supplies, +[2695.34 --> 2699.26] with the assumption that I was gonna be getting one of the Titan Blacks. +[2699.26 --> 2707.50] Well, after much debate, and much, um, concealment of the actual plan... +[2707.50 --> 2707.90] There wasn't much debate. +[2707.90 --> 2708.62] ...by Luke... +[2708.62 --> 2709.50] Luke and I are just like, +[2709.50 --> 2711.90] yeah, let's give me the Titan. +[2711.90 --> 2720.06] Yeah, so, I ended up with an old GTX 285, that we had lying around somewhere in my rig, +[2720.06 --> 2722.22] and Ed ended up with two Titans, and we kind of went, +[2723.10 --> 2726.14] shoot, is 750 watts even enough? +[2726.86 --> 2727.58] Probably not. +[2727.58 --> 2729.98] So, because he's got three graphics cards in there. +[2730.54 --> 2731.10] Uh, what is it? +[2731.10 --> 2733.10] Uh, two Titans and a Quadro. +[2733.10 --> 2739.58] Yeah, two Titans and a Quadro, plus the 10 gigabit ethernet card, plus the 12 core processor. +[2740.38 --> 2746.06] So, we're talking about the kind of rig that these types of power supplies are legitimately made for. +[2746.06 --> 2750.06] Actually, we should actually, like, measure how much it actually takes. +[2750.06 --> 2755.02] We should measure, like, when you're, when you're, um, dinking around in Cinema 4D, +[2755.02 --> 2760.06] we should have a look at what kind of power consumption when you're hitting the RAM, the GPUs, +[2760.06 --> 2761.42] and the CPU all at the same time. +[2761.42 --> 2763.50] The CPU doesn't get used that much, uh, during Octane. +[2764.46 --> 2765.34] Oh, that's right. +[2765.34 --> 2767.10] Yeah, it's all, it's all GPU. +[2767.10 --> 2767.90] You know what? +[2767.90 --> 2770.94] I'm gonna give the floor to you while I go get a drink of water. +[2770.94 --> 2772.14] Um, would you like one too? +[2772.14 --> 2773.98] Can you get my energy drink in the other room? +[2773.98 --> 2774.54] Sure. +[2774.54 --> 2775.98] Yeah, I'll grab your energy drink. +[2775.98 --> 2779.90] But I want you to justify, because people haven't really, +[2780.38 --> 2785.50] I think, been able to understand why anyone could possibly need a 12 core CPU, +[2785.50 --> 2790.86] 64 gigs of RAM, dual Titan Blacks, and a Quadro in one machine. +[2790.86 --> 2795.34] Can you justify what the heck it is you do around here that you need that kind of power for? +[2795.34 --> 2795.98] I'll be right back. +[2795.98 --> 2796.94] So, justify that. +[2797.66 --> 2798.06] Okay. +[2799.58 --> 2800.30] Where to start? +[2800.30 --> 2801.02] Where to start? +[2801.02 --> 2803.02] Alright. +[2807.66 --> 2817.10] Alright, so for the 12 core processor, um, well, I use After Effects pretty much exclusively these days. +[2817.10 --> 2818.54] No, that's a lie. +[2818.54 --> 2824.86] Uh, most, for the big projects, like the build guides, I guess that's it these days. +[2824.86 --> 2830.30] Um, I use After Effects to do motion graphics for the intro, the lower thirds. +[2830.30 --> 2835.10] And then I've also started to use Cinema 4D. +[2835.10 --> 2842.62] And I have the Octane Renderer engine, which is fully GPU accelerated. +[2843.26 --> 2849.58] So, to put this, to, I guess, size this up against each other, +[2850.54 --> 2854.94] my 6 core processor would render a frame in about 6 minutes. +[2854.94 --> 2862.86] I'll be back, actually, I'm not quite ready yet. +[2862.86 --> 2867.90] 2 GPUs would be around 45 seconds. +[2867.90 --> 2868.70] I can't do math. +[2868.70 --> 2875.10] Uh, so 3 is bound to be, what, 20-ish? +[2875.10 --> 2876.38] 25 seconds? +[2876.38 --> 2878.06] Someone do the math for me, please. +[2878.06 --> 2884.38] Uh, porn? +[2884.38 --> 2885.90] Why are we talking about porn? +[2885.90 --> 2886.70] I don't get this. +[2892.54 --> 2894.30] Uh, the... +[2894.30 --> 2899.42] Yeah, it's, uh, 1 frame in 6 seconds, or 6 minutes, because it's like, 3D ray tracing. +[2899.42 --> 2902.22] No, it's actually like, Photon something or other. +[2902.22 --> 2905.66] But, it's definitely more intensive than 2D video. +[2905.66 --> 2907.10] Would you like to sit back down? +[2907.10 --> 2907.90] Yeah, sure. +[2910.38 --> 2914.30] I noticed in my absence, you just completely took over the entire couch. +[2915.26 --> 2915.74] Awesome. +[2916.86 --> 2918.78] So, had you made it through all of the components yet? +[2918.78 --> 2921.34] Uh, I don't think I've justified the RAM yet. +[2921.90 --> 2926.78] Okay, so, in After Effects, to use multiprocessor rendering, +[2926.78 --> 2929.34] you have to assign each core some RAM. +[2929.34 --> 2933.10] Ideally, you want to assign it 3 gigs each. +[2933.10 --> 2934.70] I don't have enough for that. +[2934.70 --> 2937.18] So, I assign it 2 gigs. +[2937.18 --> 2940.54] That's, what, 2 times 12? +[2940.54 --> 2944.70] No, 24, because it counts the separate threads as a core. +[2944.70 --> 2946.38] Right, so 48 gigs. +[2946.38 --> 2947.42] Yeah. +[2947.42 --> 2948.38] So, that's 48... +[2948.38 --> 2949.50] I guess I could... +[2949.50 --> 2951.02] No, that brings it up to 72. +[2951.02 --> 2951.98] No, you used to have... +[2951.98 --> 2956.86] No, you didn't used to be able to do it, because you had 6 cores, 12 threads. +[2956.86 --> 2958.22] 12 times 3 is 36. +[2959.58 --> 2960.78] And you had 32 gigs. +[2960.78 --> 2961.10] Yeah. +[2961.10 --> 2966.54] Whereas, with the new 64 gig config, you'll have 24 threads times... +[2966.54 --> 2967.26] Yeah, you still won't have enough. +[2967.26 --> 2969.82] Yeah, I can still only assign 12 gigs to it. +[2969.82 --> 2972.30] Yeah, but you know what we could try as an experiment? +[2972.30 --> 2974.30] We could try turning off hyper-threading. +[2975.26 --> 2980.78] Because hyper-threading will give you a, you know, probably a 10 to 15% boost. +[2981.34 --> 2984.30] But you might get more of a boost by being able to assign more RAM to your cores. +[2984.30 --> 2984.86] Having more RAM. +[2984.86 --> 2985.34] Interesting. +[2985.34 --> 2986.94] We should play around with that. +[2986.94 --> 2987.58] That's going to be cool. +[2987.58 --> 2988.14] Anyway, sorry. +[2988.14 --> 2991.50] Some Mac users have allegedly disabled some cores. +[2993.02 --> 2994.86] But that's not hyper-threading. +[2994.86 --> 2995.74] No, but you can... +[2995.74 --> 2995.82] Yeah. +[2995.82 --> 2996.30] You can... +[2996.30 --> 2999.66] Oh, because the Mac Pro only has four memory slots. +[3000.22 --> 3002.30] But then you can load it with ECC RAM, so... +[3002.94 --> 3003.26] Hmm. +[3003.26 --> 3006.70] If I said, I still have more slots on there, right? +[3006.70 --> 3008.22] Yeah, you have eight slots. +[3008.22 --> 3009.42] So it could get more RAM. +[3009.42 --> 3010.54] Um, yes. +[3010.54 --> 3017.42] Asus has a beta BIOS for the X79 Deluxe that supports 16 gig DIMMs. +[3018.06 --> 3021.90] But only certain ones, not the ones that we originally obtained for the project. +[3021.90 --> 3022.78] Hmm. +[3022.78 --> 3023.90] Okay, so sorry. +[3023.90 --> 3025.18] You were justifying why you need... +[3025.90 --> 3027.02] Why you need all the, uh... +[3027.02 --> 3029.50] Well, I justified the Cinema 4D just because, uh... +[3029.50 --> 3030.22] Yeah. +[3030.22 --> 3034.94] Linear performance scaling with graphics cards, which is amazing. +[3034.94 --> 3037.90] I think I need two more Titans, honestly. +[3037.90 --> 3038.94] Because... +[3038.94 --> 3039.18] Okay. +[3040.94 --> 3043.34] Take the cost of a Titan, right? +[3044.06 --> 3044.62] And then... +[3044.62 --> 3045.58] A thousand dollars. +[3047.02 --> 3047.50] Take... +[3048.62 --> 3053.34] Count how many hours an extra Titan would save me in rendering. +[3053.34 --> 3055.66] In the one project we've ever done. +[3055.66 --> 3057.26] One so far! +[3057.26 --> 3058.22] It could be more! +[3058.22 --> 3062.06] If I could do things faster, I could do more of those! +[3062.54 --> 3065.58] And that's how I'm trying to justify two more Titans. +[3065.58 --> 3066.54] Well, you've got two. +[3066.54 --> 3068.22] Why don't we see how it goes from there? +[3070.54 --> 3073.02] Anyway... +[3073.66 --> 3076.70] So because of him, I don't even have a DisplayPort output. +[3077.10 --> 3084.54] So my LG monitor is running on a DVI to HDMI adapter and HDMI in at 50 Hertz. +[3084.54 --> 3088.78] So I am going to have to obtain some other kind of GPU for my system. +[3089.26 --> 3098.70] And when that happens, I guess around the same time, we're going to add another pump to the whole room setup so that bleeding air from the system is much, much easier. +[3098.70 --> 3113.98] Because right now, the only way to bleed the air from the lines that go down and then up to each system from the top of the room is to disconnect all the other systems so that the main pump is only pushing through one system so that we can get all the air bubbles out. +[3113.98 --> 3122.54] But what's cool is the way we have it working right now, none of the systems even have pumps on. +[3123.50 --> 3125.90] So if we could close the door to the server room... +[3125.90 --> 3126.70] The fans are on. +[3126.70 --> 3127.50] The fans are running. +[3127.50 --> 3130.38] You still want fans running, but we wouldn't have to have them all running. +[3131.02 --> 3136.78] So the way that it's set up right now, if we could close the door to the server room, we could actually have the room be extremely quiet. +[3137.42 --> 3138.30] It's just very cool. +[3138.30 --> 3140.86] Speaking of which, how loud is the rad? +[3140.86 --> 3141.34] Not bad. +[3141.82 --> 3142.30] Not bad. +[3142.54 --> 3148.94] But what I'm thinking is we might get a variable power supply, so we could dial it into 8 volts or something like that. +[3148.94 --> 3159.02] Because with 20 Noctua Industrial NFF12 fans and then 5 quad radiators, it's way more than enough for the systems that we have in there. +[3159.42 --> 3166.46] We actually had it running passively for hours today with 3 of the systems idling and Ed's 12 core priming. +[3167.02 --> 3169.26] And you managed to raise it, what, like 2 degrees? +[3170.30 --> 3171.10] What, unpassive? +[3171.10 --> 3171.66] Yeah. +[3172.54 --> 3173.02] Passive. +[3173.02 --> 3173.98] Without the fans even running. +[3173.98 --> 3175.66] 100%. +[3175.66 --> 3178.22] It was 48 degrees Celsius. +[3178.22 --> 3179.50] Idol was 30. +[3179.50 --> 3180.14] Yeah. +[3180.14 --> 3185.18] I mean, but when you had it priming, it went up to about 50 degrees Celsius max, right? +[3187.34 --> 3188.30] It was about the same. +[3188.30 --> 3189.10] Was it about the same? +[3189.10 --> 3189.26] Yeah. +[3189.26 --> 3191.50] Okay, maybe we didn't even manage to increase the temps. +[3191.50 --> 3196.86] But I'm thinking in the winter, we may not have to disconnect from the whole room system. +[3196.86 --> 3200.38] What we might do is just turn off all the fans. +[3200.38 --> 3205.10] And then if we have enough or turn on only a few of the fans. +[3205.42 --> 3212.94] So what I'm thinking is as like a phase two, if Luke and I could find a way to have a temperature controlled +[3215.50 --> 3219.10] switch for each bank of fans. +[3219.10 --> 3224.70] So as water temperature reaches X degrees, another bank of fans turns on. +[3224.70 --> 3227.50] And as it reaches X degrees, another bank turns on. +[3227.50 --> 3235.66] And then they turn off to prevent the entire water cooling system from getting so cold that we have condensation problems. +[3235.66 --> 3243.42] So that could be like a phase two where it actually intelligently maintains its temperature at a specific setting. +[3243.42 --> 3247.82] Can you set a fan curve without the PC connected to it? +[3247.82 --> 3250.38] We, yeah, there would be a way. +[3250.38 --> 3251.26] Actually, yes. +[3252.70 --> 3259.10] A T balancer can be configured with extra mini controllers. +[3261.02 --> 3262.30] And those will run. +[3262.30 --> 3263.82] Oh, I getcha. +[3263.82 --> 3265.26] You program them. +[3265.26 --> 3267.98] So you don't actually have to have the software interacting with it. +[3269.82 --> 3270.94] That could even work. +[3270.94 --> 3271.18] This is stupid. +[3271.18 --> 3274.78] It's so stupid. +[3274.78 --> 3275.98] It might just be brilliant. +[3275.98 --> 3277.42] This is getting stupider and stupider. +[3277.42 --> 3278.30] I love it. +[3279.50 --> 3280.94] Ooh, I'm excited. +[3280.94 --> 3284.70] Oh, we had someone in the Twitch chat figure out the T balancer thing before I said it. +[3284.70 --> 3286.38] So we got to give them a shout out for that. +[3286.38 --> 3286.94] Who is it? +[3286.94 --> 3287.66] Who is it? +[3287.66 --> 3288.22] Where are you? +[3288.22 --> 3291.98] I can't find it because I don't have that stupid plugin installed in my browser. +[3291.98 --> 3293.02] So I can't scroll up. +[3293.02 --> 3293.98] Anyway, good job. +[3293.98 --> 3295.42] You know what? +[3295.42 --> 3298.70] We should probably do our sponsor spots before we completely run out of time today. +[3298.70 --> 3301.58] So first up, it is 5-4 Club. +[3301.58 --> 3309.74] So guys, to be clear, the 5-4 Club offer has actually changed a little bit. +[3309.74 --> 3316.70] So now, instead of saving $15 on your first package, they are actually going to send you +[3316.70 --> 3321.58] all the clothing that you ordered and they're just going to put cash money in the box for you. +[3321.58 --> 3322.62] $10 cash. +[3322.62 --> 3323.18] Boom. +[3323.18 --> 3324.06] Like actually cash? +[3324.06 --> 3326.62] Like dollar bills or whatever. +[3326.62 --> 3329.50] That is, that is it. +[3329.50 --> 3335.98] So rather than like an online discount, they're offering $10 cash back in the package. +[3335.98 --> 3337.18] That doesn't make any sense. +[3337.18 --> 3340.06] Like, okay, sure, why not? +[3340.70 --> 3345.90] So guys, the whole thing with 5-4 Club is that it takes the effort out of shopping. +[3345.90 --> 3349.02] So I'm just going to pull up their site so I can show you guys how the whole thing works. +[3349.02 --> 3351.02] Do, do, do, do, do. +[3351.02 --> 3351.66] Here we go. +[3351.66 --> 3352.78] Landis's screen share. +[3353.58 --> 3355.98] Actually, I should probably move there. +[3355.98 --> 3356.62] There we go. +[3356.62 --> 3357.42] Shopping sucks. +[3357.42 --> 3359.26] Let us take care of making you look good. +[3359.26 --> 3361.26] Now, Edsel, you enjoy shopping, correct? +[3362.14 --> 3364.14] I love shopping, Linus. +[3364.14 --> 3365.58] You know me so well. +[3365.58 --> 3366.86] I thought you do like shopping. +[3367.50 --> 3368.62] You like wearing nice clothes. +[3369.58 --> 3370.14] Yeah, I guess. +[3371.98 --> 3376.94] Okay, so even, even the ones who like wearing nice clothes, apparently, I, really, +[3376.94 --> 3379.26] I thought you enjoyed shopping for clothes. +[3379.26 --> 3382.14] You wanted to go shopping in Vegas when we were there the first year? +[3382.14 --> 3384.06] Yeah, but there's not, there wasn't much else to do. +[3384.78 --> 3386.62] Like outside of, outside of the parties. +[3386.94 --> 3390.30] Just like, what is in Vegas besides gambling? +[3390.30 --> 3391.02] I hate gambling. +[3392.38 --> 3398.30] So the way 5-4 Club works is every month they send you a package of clothes so you can look +[3398.30 --> 3399.34] and feel great. +[3399.34 --> 3400.62] You take a quick survey. +[3400.62 --> 3403.10] It takes literally less than a minute. +[3403.10 --> 3405.50] Luke and I both actually timed it. +[3405.50 --> 3407.10] See, I'm actually, you know what? +[3407.10 --> 3408.22] That's what we're going to do today. +[3408.22 --> 3409.82] We are going to do the survey. +[3409.82 --> 3410.86] In fact, check this out. +[3410.86 --> 3416.94] They even put a timer in the corner so that you can, you can realize as you finish that +[3416.94 --> 3419.58] you took less than a minute to do it. +[3419.58 --> 3421.50] So what should we go for? +[3422.62 --> 3424.14] Okay, I'm going to have you do the survey, Ed. +[3424.14 --> 3425.02] Steve, business casual. +[3425.02 --> 3425.50] Here, hold on. +[3425.50 --> 3428.14] I actually really like the 5-4 system just because. +[3428.94 --> 3430.06] Okay, you want business casual? +[3430.06 --> 3430.54] Yeah. +[3430.54 --> 3430.86] Okay. +[3431.90 --> 3432.30] All right. +[3432.30 --> 3432.86] Can I get this? +[3432.86 --> 3433.74] I scrolled down the page. +[3433.74 --> 3435.90] What's your favorite color to wear? +[3435.90 --> 3436.46] Hmm. +[3436.46 --> 3439.26] It's about fall now, right? +[3439.26 --> 3440.54] So maybe a red? +[3440.54 --> 3440.94] Yeah. +[3440.94 --> 3441.58] Or brown? +[3441.58 --> 3442.46] No, let's go with blue. +[3442.46 --> 3443.42] Let's go with blue. +[3443.42 --> 3444.86] What does blue have to do with fall? +[3444.86 --> 3447.18] Okay, what's your second favorite color to wear? +[3448.78 --> 3449.66] Let's go with the gray. +[3449.66 --> 3450.46] Let's go with that. +[3450.46 --> 3451.90] Let's go with the gray thing. +[3451.90 --> 3452.78] Third favorite color? +[3452.78 --> 3453.90] Hmm. +[3453.90 --> 3454.78] Let's go with brown. +[3454.78 --> 3455.82] Okay, brown. +[3455.82 --> 3458.70] And then what is your top size? +[3458.70 --> 3459.58] Medium. +[3459.58 --> 3460.38] Medium. +[3460.38 --> 3461.42] What is your bottom size? +[3461.42 --> 3462.46] 32. +[3462.46 --> 3463.66] All right. +[3463.66 --> 3464.70] 32. +[3464.70 --> 3466.54] What is your bottom fit? +[3466.54 --> 3468.22] Hmm, straight. +[3468.22 --> 3469.18] Straight fit? +[3469.18 --> 3469.58] Yep. +[3469.58 --> 3470.14] Shoe size? +[3470.14 --> 3471.18] Oh, geez. +[3471.18 --> 3471.98] Nine? +[3471.98 --> 3472.62] What shoe? +[3472.62 --> 3474.30] You're probably about a nine. +[3474.30 --> 3475.10] Yeah, okay. +[3475.10 --> 3478.38] Okay, and then which do you like more? +[3482.38 --> 3483.18] Striped? +[3483.18 --> 3484.06] Well, striped? +[3484.06 --> 3484.46] All right. +[3484.46 --> 3486.30] What is your second favorite shirt type? +[3486.30 --> 3486.70] Solid. +[3486.70 --> 3487.34] Solid. +[3487.34 --> 3487.58] All right. +[3487.58 --> 3489.34] So you're not a plaid guy is what you're trying to say. +[3489.34 --> 3491.26] Raw or washed for your jeans? +[3491.26 --> 3491.74] Raw. +[3491.74 --> 3492.30] Raw. +[3492.30 --> 3493.58] Gotta love the raw. +[3493.58 --> 3493.98] Okay. +[3493.98 --> 3495.66] What kind of denim style do you prefer? +[3495.66 --> 3496.22] Fashion. +[3496.22 --> 3498.06] Fashion denim. +[3498.06 --> 3498.86] T-shirt preference? +[3500.62 --> 3501.02] Fashion. +[3501.02 --> 3501.66] Fashion. +[3501.66 --> 3502.22] Okay. +[3502.22 --> 3503.02] And shoes? +[3505.02 --> 3505.98] They're both. +[3507.18 --> 3508.14] Now let's go with boat shoe. +[3508.14 --> 3509.50] Boat shoe? +[3509.50 --> 3509.98] All right. +[3509.98 --> 3511.02] So there you go. +[3511.02 --> 3512.94] Total time elapsed to 101 seconds. +[3512.94 --> 3513.26] All right. +[3513.26 --> 3515.18] So it took us a little longer than 60 seconds. +[3515.18 --> 3520.86] But the main point is on your first time you get $10 cash back. +[3520.86 --> 3525.66] So sign up at bit.ly slash minus FFC and try it out. +[3525.66 --> 3533.26] We actually had a 5-4 club sponsorship spot that we did a while back that was a total disaster. +[3533.26 --> 3536.06] I got all of the pricing wrong. +[3536.06 --> 3539.98] I got the offer for their July thing totally wrong. +[3540.38 --> 3546.22] But you know what's hilarious is they actually reached out to us and said a whole bunch of our viewers signed up. +[3546.62 --> 3552.62] So in the next couple minutes, I'd like to hear from any of you who signed up for 5-4 club. +[3552.86 --> 3556.86] Go ahead and tweet with hashtag Linus54. +[3556.86 --> 3560.14] Not because I'm 5-4 inches tall. +[3560.14 --> 3561.42] I'm much taller than that. +[3561.42 --> 3562.30] What's the offer code? +[3562.30 --> 3563.42] Someone asked. +[3563.42 --> 3564.30] Sorry? +[3564.30 --> 3566.38] Someone asked what the offer code was. +[3566.38 --> 3569.98] Uh, offer code is Linus, I believe. +[3569.98 --> 3571.02] 5-4 Linus. +[3571.02 --> 3571.82] Let me just double check. +[3571.82 --> 3576.46] I really love the 5-4 system just because like... +[3578.46 --> 3583.42] I don't have time to go shopping like during the weekdays just because I leave here at 6. +[3583.42 --> 3583.90] Nope. +[3583.90 --> 3584.70] 5-30. +[3584.70 --> 3589.82] Oh, apparently we've used hashtag Linus5-4 before. +[3590.54 --> 3591.18] Already then. +[3592.46 --> 3594.94] Um, okay, 5-4. +[3598.30 --> 3603.26] For those of you just tuning in, uh, Luke is off at PAX. +[3603.66 --> 3609.34] I'm Edsel at Edsel Yago on Twitter. +[3609.66 --> 3612.06] I guess me doing that doesn't really do anything, does it? +[3612.06 --> 3612.78] I don't think so. +[3612.78 --> 3613.02] Yeah. +[3614.70 --> 3615.26] Follow me. +[3618.06 --> 3618.38] All right. +[3618.38 --> 3620.14] I'm posting the link guys. +[3620.14 --> 3621.66] Just make sure you use the link. +[3621.66 --> 3624.14] And I believe offer code is Linus. +[3624.14 --> 3625.02] So give that a try. +[3625.58 --> 3626.14] All right. +[3626.14 --> 3627.18] And then, so yeah. +[3627.18 --> 3630.78] If I'm gonna see if anyone has actually tweeted with the, uh, hashtag. +[3631.90 --> 3632.70] Hashtag. +[3632.70 --> 3633.98] I want to hear what you guys think of it. +[3634.54 --> 3635.74] Linus5-4. +[3635.74 --> 3639.02] I did caps lock. +[3639.02 --> 3641.02] So 22 seconds ago. +[3641.02 --> 3643.66] All you did was use the hashtag. +[3643.66 --> 3646.38] You didn't actually tell me what you think of it. +[3646.38 --> 3646.62] Okay. +[3646.62 --> 3648.06] So maybe we'll come back to this later. +[3648.06 --> 3648.54] Twitter. +[3648.54 --> 3649.26] But in the meantime. +[3649.26 --> 3650.54] Twitter is hard. +[3650.54 --> 3651.34] I know. +[3651.34 --> 3652.38] Twitter is so difficult. +[3652.38 --> 3656.30] Our second sponsor this week is HyperX Memory. +[3656.30 --> 3660.06] So they are actually our gold sponsor for our PAX Prime coverage. +[3660.06 --> 3663.66] Luke and Brandon are down there at the show. +[3663.66 --> 3665.74] And hopefully having a ton of fun. +[3665.74 --> 3670.86] Bringing you guys a ton of great coverage over the next, um, I guess it'll be Saturday. +[3670.86 --> 3672.70] Saturday, Sunday, Monday. +[3672.70 --> 3675.90] Um, all the PAX Prime coverage should be landing. +[3675.90 --> 3677.66] So they're gonna be covering some game stuff. +[3677.66 --> 3679.98] They're gonna be covering some of the hardware stuff. +[3679.98 --> 3683.98] And you guys should definitely, definitely get excited about that. +[3683.98 --> 3691.82] I think Luke is gonna be trying to get all of his work done in the first, uh, I think, +[3691.82 --> 3692.94] what was he trying to do? +[3692.94 --> 3696.78] Trying to get all of his work done in the first two days. +[3696.78 --> 3698.70] And then try to spend a bunch of time gaming. +[3698.70 --> 3703.34] So if you're gonna be down in the BYOC, down at PAX Prime, definitely go say hi to Luke +[3703.34 --> 3703.90] and Brandon. +[3703.90 --> 3704.94] They're both gonna be there. +[3704.94 --> 3706.38] Nick's gonna be there as well. +[3706.38 --> 3712.02] And Luke actually has my computer down there. +[3712.02 --> 3715.98] So if you've ever wanted to see my personal rig in person, and you're gonna be down at +[3715.98 --> 3720.70] PAX, and you're gonna be in the BYOC, that's basically gonna be the requirements. +[3720.70 --> 3724.54] He, um, didn't have time to fix up his Spotswood test bench. +[3724.54 --> 3729.42] And he asked if, uh, if he could build up a rig from some of the parts around the office. +[3729.42 --> 3731.98] And I was just like, well, I got a newborn. +[3731.98 --> 3733.10] I'm not gaming this weekend. +[3733.10 --> 3735.50] So, yeah. +[3735.50 --> 3738.54] I guess you can just take my rig. +[3738.54 --> 3740.62] So I thought that was pretty darn cool. +[3740.62 --> 3742.94] All right, so... +[3742.94 --> 3745.82] Someone did it in 14 seconds. +[3745.82 --> 3746.94] Someone did what? +[3746.94 --> 3748.94] Did the 5-4 thing in 14 seconds? +[3748.94 --> 3752.54] Yeah, I don't think they actually chose things right. +[3752.54 --> 3753.82] Or they might just be like... +[3753.82 --> 3756.62] That's kind of fun. +[3756.62 --> 3761.18] Maybe for our next, uh, maybe for our next 5-4 integration thing, we should actually make +[3761.18 --> 3762.38] that a contest. +[3762.38 --> 3765.66] Let's see who can do the 5-4 survey in the least amount of time. +[3765.66 --> 3769.42] Um, just so you know, guys, uh, the pricing for 5-4. +[3769.42 --> 3771.26] So per month is 60 bucks. +[3771.26 --> 3773.42] They send you a sticker price of... +[3773.42 --> 3774.78] Sorry, what's up? +[3774.78 --> 3776.54] What's the 5-4 hashtag? +[3776.54 --> 3778.30] Oh, oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. +[3778.30 --> 3779.58] I'll post that. +[3779.58 --> 3783.18] Okay, so hashtag Linus 5-4. +[3783.18 --> 3785.34] Guys, so hit us on Twitter with that. +[3785.34 --> 3788.70] I want to hear what you think of the service now that you've been using it. +[3788.70 --> 3794.78] So it's 60 bucks a month, and then you get a total value of $100 worth of clothing. +[3794.78 --> 3798.38] And then the first month, they're just going to send you $10 in the box. +[3798.38 --> 3801.82] So you get effectively a $10 discount on your first month. +[3801.82 --> 3807.98] Oh, and something I should mention about HyperX's sponsorship for PAX Prime is they really wanted +[3807.98 --> 3813.18] me to tell you guys, yo, check out their YouTube channel because they've been doing a lot of +[3813.18 --> 3815.10] really cool stuff on it lately. +[3815.10 --> 3817.34] So you just go to youtube.com slash... +[3817.34 --> 3820.38] I think just HyperX works now as well. +[3820.38 --> 3820.86] No, it doesn't. +[3820.86 --> 3823.82] So youtube.com slash Kingston HyperX. +[3826.30 --> 3828.94] And they've been doing a bunch of really cool stuff. +[3828.94 --> 3835.02] So aside from just like, yeah, you know, here's some really great memory and headsets +[3835.02 --> 3836.30] and USB drives and stuff. +[3836.30 --> 3838.70] You should probably, you should probably try it out. +[3838.70 --> 3845.82] They've also got a bunch of really cool content that's like, um, bloggy style or skits or interviews +[3845.82 --> 3847.74] with pro esports athletes. +[3847.74 --> 3853.82] So, um, they're doing a fantastic job of releasing a ton of interesting content. +[3853.82 --> 3857.74] When you compare that to what other brand names tend to do on their YouTube channels, +[3857.74 --> 3860.86] where it's like, yet another place to put an ad. +[3860.86 --> 3864.86] Um, I think their approach is, really stands out from the crowd. +[3864.86 --> 3873.82] So I like how, uh, they've been doing a lot of, a lot of videos or ads with actual pro gamers. +[3873.82 --> 3878.06] I mean, like they're, they're not, they're not actors. +[3878.62 --> 3880.78] So, so they're kind of terrible ads. +[3880.78 --> 3882.94] Like, I wasn't sure if I could say that or not. +[3882.94 --> 3883.90] But that's fine. +[3883.90 --> 3884.46] Yeah. +[3884.46 --> 3885.34] It's genuine. +[3885.34 --> 3886.14] Yeah, it is genuine. +[3886.14 --> 3887.82] It does help the esports scene. +[3887.82 --> 3889.66] So I, I do really appreciate that. +[3889.66 --> 3892.38] So, I mean, actually, this is, this is funny. +[3892.38 --> 3893.90] We, uh, check this out. +[3893.90 --> 3899.90] We, we creeped them on WAN Show last week to have a look at how their YouTube channel's growing. +[3899.90 --> 3903.98] And they had added, let's look at their full monthly statistics. +[3903.98 --> 3909.50] They had added almost half of their total subscriber count in the previous two weeks, +[3909.50 --> 3910.62] or rather month. +[3910.62 --> 3914.78] And this time, it looks like they've pretty much done it again. +[3914.78 --> 3918.78] They have added 20,000 and they have a total of 44,000 subscribers. +[3918.78 --> 3920.38] So they're growing extremely quickly. +[3920.38 --> 3921.98] So someone likes something that they're doing. +[3921.98 --> 3928.30] This is, this is funny. +[3928.30 --> 3934.86] I've got KGHT222 in the Twitch chat saying that the, uh, the $60 a month for 5-4 club +[3934.86 --> 3937.26] is an average of $2 a day for clothing. +[3937.26 --> 3941.26] I doubt even Bill Gates spends $800 a year on clothing. +[3941.26 --> 3941.58] Well, okay. +[3941.58 --> 3946.54] Bill Gates, I don't think, is really on top of, of that fashion thing. +[3946.54 --> 3948.14] Or, I don't think he even cares. +[3948.14 --> 3952.46] I think Bill Gates probably spends more than $800 a year on clothing. +[3952.46 --> 3959.34] I think he's, he might be one of those people who buys, like, really expensive, uh, polos +[3959.34 --> 3960.54] that are, like, bulletproof. +[3961.74 --> 3962.14] Okay. +[3962.14 --> 3964.30] So, I don't know. +[3964.30 --> 3966.86] I, I wish I could meet Bill Gates. +[3966.86 --> 3967.66] Bill Gates! +[3968.62 --> 3969.58] Meet me, please! +[3969.58 --> 3970.86] Yeah, Bill Gates. +[3970.86 --> 3975.98] Bill, if you're watching, man, you know, we'd love to, uh, we'd love to have you on the show sometime. +[3978.14 --> 3979.34] I don't know. +[3979.34 --> 3982.46] People are really complaining about $60 a month for clothes. +[3982.46 --> 3988.06] Like, I don't get, no offense to people, but clothes are kind of expensive. +[3988.06 --> 3988.94] Yeah, they are. +[3988.94 --> 3991.58] If you care about, like, keeping up with stuff. +[3991.58 --> 3992.38] Not looking homeless. +[3992.38 --> 3992.94] Yeah. +[3992.94 --> 3998.30] Well, no, you can look not homeless without spending all that much money, but to keep up +[3998.30 --> 4002.22] with anything, it's kind of a lot of work. +[4002.22 --> 4004.38] All right, so we're, we're gonna do it. +[4004.38 --> 4008.54] We are gonna go unfiltered and have a look at what you guys have to say about 5.4. +[4008.54 --> 4011.90] This will either be a great endorsement for the service, or if you guys hate it, then there'll +[4011.90 --> 4013.18] be that. +[4013.18 --> 4014.46] Um, here we go. +[4017.42 --> 4019.10] It's better than anyone. +[4019.10 --> 4022.38] They sent me clothes in the box without the face of Neptune. +[4023.02 --> 4024.30] Gotta love my socks. +[4025.02 --> 4025.58] All right. +[4026.54 --> 4028.38] Timothy says they have great clothing. +[4029.66 --> 4033.02] Dana says, like all things, I don't like the cost of shipping to Canada. +[4033.02 --> 4035.82] Yes, 5.4 is more expensive to ship to Canada. +[4036.62 --> 4037.18] Okay. +[4037.18 --> 4041.50] Jacob Ingram says, I just wanted to say you're pretty awesome, Edsel. +[4041.50 --> 4042.78] I think you're skipping ahead. +[4042.78 --> 4045.66] Sam Palmer says, I wish it was available in Australia. +[4045.66 --> 4046.78] Would love to use the system. +[4047.66 --> 4048.78] Rom says, love it. +[4048.78 --> 4050.54] Thanks for recommending it and hi, Linus. +[4052.46 --> 4056.14] Lewis suggests that Linus do the boiling water challenge. +[4056.14 --> 4057.02] Thanks, Lewis. +[4057.66 --> 4058.86] I don't think that's a thing. +[4058.86 --> 4060.86] Jackass. +[4060.86 --> 4061.42] Okay. +[4061.42 --> 4067.10] Amir says, I really like the system, but sadly I'm only 14 and constantly changing sizes. +[4067.98 --> 4070.30] Actually, I would see that as an advantage. +[4070.86 --> 4075.74] If you budget for it and you let, because okay, the way 5.4 works is they have like a style advisor +[4076.14 --> 4079.98] who you work with directly and who handpicks your clothing every month. +[4079.98 --> 4085.26] So, they actually have someone that you can contact and be like, yo dog, I changed sizes. +[4085.26 --> 4087.10] So, just throwing that out there. +[4087.10 --> 4087.74] That's interesting. +[4088.86 --> 4091.18] Ethan says, did it in 20 seconds. +[4092.86 --> 4093.34] Alright. +[4094.46 --> 4096.94] Brian asks, try to make the service available in the UK. +[4098.30 --> 4100.30] Shorts, sweatpants, and graphic t-shirts. +[4100.30 --> 4101.34] They don't have my style. +[4101.34 --> 4103.74] I like shorts, sweatpants, and graphic t-shirts. +[4103.74 --> 4104.70] Is that a style? +[4104.70 --> 4107.98] I don't know that sweatpants and graphic t-shirts are a style. +[4107.98 --> 4109.50] I think that might be your issue, Sam. +[4112.22 --> 4114.38] Says the guy who wears socks and sandals. +[4114.38 --> 4115.42] I don't wear sweatpants. +[4117.34 --> 4118.94] Have you ever seen me wear sweatpants? +[4119.50 --> 4122.62] I want to say you have, but... +[4122.62 --> 4123.74] I think I did once. +[4123.74 --> 4124.54] I was really sick. +[4125.74 --> 4126.06] Alright. +[4126.06 --> 4126.22] Oh! +[4126.86 --> 4129.58] Sometimes, well, sometimes you walk around in pajamas, I think. +[4129.58 --> 4130.94] Not here, recent. +[4130.94 --> 4132.22] Oh, at home, yes. +[4132.22 --> 4134.30] I've actually done videos in my pajamas. +[4135.10 --> 4136.78] Jack says, love the surface. +[4136.78 --> 4137.90] Brett says, come to Australia. +[4137.90 --> 4140.46] Okay, I think we've given 5-4 enough screen time at this point. +[4140.46 --> 4144.54] They should be pretty happy, because we've blabbed about them forever. +[4145.90 --> 4147.26] See, this is the problem. +[4147.26 --> 4151.42] We always start talking about the sponsor value add, and then it's like, +[4151.42 --> 4153.02] this is a good discussion topic. +[4154.86 --> 4156.14] Clothes are overrated. +[4156.14 --> 4157.74] Alright, I'm letting you deal with this one. +[4157.74 --> 4159.82] It was originally posted by Mushi on the forum, +[4159.82 --> 4163.10] and the original article is from ComputerAndVideoGames.com, +[4163.66 --> 4168.30] but Nintendo says goodbye to casual gamers. +[4168.78 --> 4169.90] What exactly... +[4169.90 --> 4172.46] Here, I'm just going to bring up the article before I hand you the laptop. +[4172.46 --> 4173.66] That's what it looks like. +[4173.66 --> 4175.58] What exactly do they mean by that? +[4177.58 --> 4179.02] Well, whoa, that didn't work. +[4180.54 --> 4180.86] Oh. +[4182.46 --> 4183.18] Which didn't work? +[4183.18 --> 4185.26] The article being out. +[4185.26 --> 4185.98] Oh, no, no, that's okay. +[4185.98 --> 4187.10] The article's gone. +[4187.10 --> 4192.78] Well, apparently, because smartphones, and Apple in particular, +[4194.46 --> 4198.78] is taking over the casual gaming market, +[4199.58 --> 4201.26] they don't really see a need to... +[4201.26 --> 4202.38] Where's the other phone? +[4204.38 --> 4204.94] Okay, no, go ahead. +[4204.94 --> 4209.66] To keep making games for the casual gaming market, +[4209.66 --> 4215.42] which makes sense, because you'd be competing with people who don't really want to play games anyway, +[4216.14 --> 4217.26] unless it's convenient. +[4217.82 --> 4222.22] So, I like the direction they're going with this. +[4222.22 --> 4223.10] I don't like it at all. +[4223.10 --> 4223.66] Why not? +[4223.66 --> 4228.70] You look at one of their most successful products in the last 10 years, the DS. +[4229.34 --> 4232.46] The DS was all about the casual experience for me. +[4232.46 --> 4235.50] I played more Bomberman on my DS than anything else. +[4237.34 --> 4239.02] But you've also played games like... +[4240.22 --> 4240.78] What is it? +[4240.78 --> 4241.66] Bravely Default. +[4241.66 --> 4242.30] Yes. +[4242.30 --> 4244.06] How did you like that? +[4244.06 --> 4246.86] Bravely Default was good until it completely crapped the bed. +[4246.86 --> 4247.74] Bravely Default. +[4247.74 --> 4248.06] Okay. +[4249.90 --> 4250.14] But... +[4251.58 --> 4253.02] Okay, let's ask the chat. +[4253.02 --> 4256.70] How many of you guys are... or like casual games? +[4258.54 --> 4258.94] I don't know, on Nintendo? +[4258.94 --> 4259.90] Okay, here. +[4259.90 --> 4265.58] Do you guys think Nintendo still has a contribution to make to casual games? +[4266.30 --> 4270.54] Or should they focus on the stuff that looks casual in terms of the art style, +[4270.54 --> 4276.70] like Mario Kart and Smash Brothers, but is actually extremely hardcore in terms of the game balancing +[4276.70 --> 4277.34] and the gameplay? +[4278.06 --> 4278.54] So there. +[4278.94 --> 4279.74] Why don't we do a straw poll? +[4279.74 --> 4280.62] Here, do you want to fire up? +[4280.62 --> 4281.66] Do you know how straw poll works? +[4281.66 --> 4282.14] Yeah. +[4282.14 --> 4283.58] Yeah, make up a straw poll. +[4283.58 --> 4285.10] I want to hear from you guys. +[4285.10 --> 4290.14] Does Nintendo still have a contribution to make, or do you just want them to focus on what... +[4290.14 --> 4292.30] I mean, really, they're very good at. +[4292.30 --> 4297.18] You know, Zelda, I would make the argument that in spite of how cartoony something like Ocarina of +[4297.18 --> 4301.58] Time might have looked, is definitely a gamer title, not a casual title. +[4303.34 --> 4303.66] Okay. +[4303.66 --> 4303.74] Okay. +[4303.74 --> 4303.82] Okay. +[4306.70 --> 4307.90] Go ahead and post that. +[4307.90 --> 4311.02] You just have to kind of spam it a little bit and do the permissive vote. +[4311.02 --> 4311.58] Yeah, there you go. +[4318.62 --> 4319.26] I'm totally... +[4319.26 --> 4323.82] I have one more straw poll in mind before the end of the show that I'm totally going to blindside +[4323.82 --> 4324.22] you with. +[4326.78 --> 4327.50] It's going to be fun. +[4328.38 --> 4329.42] All right, spam, spam, spam. +[4329.42 --> 4330.62] What the... +[4330.62 --> 4332.06] People say Ocarina is cartoony. +[4332.06 --> 4332.94] Uh, yeah. +[4334.22 --> 4335.02] Come on. +[4335.98 --> 4336.62] Little fairy. +[4338.46 --> 4339.26] Where'd I put that? +[4339.26 --> 4339.90] Hmm? +[4339.90 --> 4340.54] It's just weird. +[4340.54 --> 4342.62] Yeah, the Twitch chat just moves really fast. +[4342.62 --> 4345.10] I mean, my straw poll tab. +[4345.10 --> 4346.22] There we go. +[4346.22 --> 4346.78] Boom! +[4347.74 --> 4349.50] JJJ says, Linus, do you see this? +[4350.62 --> 4350.86] No. +[4350.86 --> 4354.22] All right, let's go ahead and screen share here. +[4354.22 --> 4354.70] So, okay. +[4354.70 --> 4356.06] Let's continue our discussion. +[4356.06 --> 4357.74] And Super Smash Brothers. +[4358.38 --> 4358.70] Yeah. +[4359.02 --> 4360.14] I love Super Mario Kart. +[4360.14 --> 4362.62] I play it with the NCIX guys, like, every week. +[4362.62 --> 4366.14] And then, like, we go to Chris's and then play it some more. +[4367.66 --> 4372.30] It's definitely not a casual game just because I know it's freaking hard. +[4373.82 --> 4374.94] And it's great. +[4374.94 --> 4375.42] Love it. +[4375.42 --> 4381.42] I probably spend more time playing Super Mario Kart than... +[4381.42 --> 4383.02] It means Mario Kart Wii U. +[4383.02 --> 4383.58] Mario Kart, yeah. +[4383.58 --> 4383.90] Sorry. +[4383.90 --> 4386.38] That's what I started with. +[4386.38 --> 4388.38] The Super Mario Kart on SNES. +[4390.14 --> 4395.26] On consoles, I've played that more than any other game on a console. +[4395.26 --> 4395.82] Really? +[4395.82 --> 4396.30] Yes. +[4396.30 --> 4397.26] That much? +[4397.26 --> 4397.74] Yeah. +[4397.74 --> 4399.26] So, would you say that... +[4399.26 --> 4400.38] Okay, so... +[4400.38 --> 4405.74] Because the Wii's whole value add was supposed to be Wii Fit and Wii Sports... +[4405.74 --> 4406.70] But they're terrible! +[4406.70 --> 4408.30] ...and flinging the Wiimote around, okay? +[4408.30 --> 4409.26] So that was the Wii. +[4409.26 --> 4413.74] So, if Nintendo's direction is, okay, Wii U, we're going to play Wii U. +[4413.74 --> 4419.18] We're going to go back to 1080p, 60fps, and hardcore titles. +[4419.18 --> 4421.98] Could you be sold a Wii U? +[4423.90 --> 4425.10] If they made more hardcore titles? +[4425.10 --> 4425.82] Yeah! +[4425.82 --> 4433.50] If they did more Mario Kart class titles on the Wii U, would you consider buying one? +[4433.50 --> 4440.70] If no one else in my group of friends had a Wii U, then yes. +[4440.70 --> 4441.18] Mm-hmm. +[4441.18 --> 4445.98] Like, honestly, for Mario Kart, I would just buy a Wii U just for Mario Kart. +[4445.98 --> 4448.46] It's a really good party game. +[4448.46 --> 4452.78] Okay, so that's the issue then. +[4452.78 --> 4453.90] Because, okay, so from a business... +[4453.90 --> 4455.82] That is kind of an issue because... +[4455.82 --> 4461.74] From a business standpoint, if the objective is to sell more copies of the game and more consoles, +[4462.54 --> 4468.70] are they going to be doing themselves any favors by eliminating casual games in favor of... +[4468.70 --> 4475.90] I mean, arguably, the two examples that we came up with of great Nintendo hardcore titles? +[4475.90 --> 4477.66] Party games. +[4477.66 --> 4478.62] Ah. +[4478.62 --> 4480.78] Well... +[4480.78 --> 4482.62] Hmm. +[4482.62 --> 4491.58] So, you're asking whether or not it's better for Nintendo to make party games and sell fewer consoles than +[4491.58 --> 4494.70] casual games and sell more? +[4494.70 --> 4495.18] Yeah. +[4495.18 --> 4495.66] Like... +[4495.66 --> 4495.74] Like... +[4495.74 --> 4497.10] But do you have any stats for that? +[4497.10 --> 4497.50] No. +[4497.50 --> 4498.06] No, I don't. +[4498.06 --> 4498.30] Yeah. +[4498.30 --> 4499.10] No, I don't. +[4499.10 --> 4503.66] I'm just saying that it feels like a problem that the titles that you and I are discussing +[4503.66 --> 4509.50] that could sell the console to us are titles that really only one person within a group of +[4509.50 --> 4510.54] friends really needs to own. +[4510.54 --> 4511.18] Yeah. +[4511.18 --> 4512.30] Unless you're going to be... +[4512.30 --> 4516.06] Unless you're going to be one of those people like Luke who sits and practices Mario Kart +[4516.06 --> 4519.18] so that when everyone comes and plays with him, he just wrecks everybody. +[4519.98 --> 4521.90] Those people are bad people, by the way. +[4521.90 --> 4523.74] People who practice party games. +[4523.74 --> 4527.26] You know, I think Anthony and Chris. +[4528.06 --> 4528.78] Probably Jack. +[4528.78 --> 4530.14] I mean, maybe two. +[4530.14 --> 4535.82] Probably better than Luke at Mario Kart. +[4535.82 --> 4536.54] Really? +[4536.54 --> 4536.94] Yeah. +[4536.94 --> 4538.30] Even though you didn't know the name of the game. +[4540.30 --> 4541.50] Mario Kart. +[4541.50 --> 4544.22] Doesn't matter if they're Super on there or an 8 on the end. +[4544.22 --> 4545.42] Same thing. +[4545.42 --> 4546.22] Same thing. +[4546.22 --> 4546.70] Okay. +[4546.70 --> 4548.14] And actually, Chris's girlfriend. +[4548.14 --> 4549.02] Amazing! +[4549.02 --> 4551.18] At Super Nintendo's Mario Kart. +[4551.18 --> 4551.74] Really? +[4551.74 --> 4552.30] Yeah. +[4552.30 --> 4553.02] Ridiculous. +[4554.30 --> 4554.78] All right. +[4554.78 --> 4555.18] All right. +[4555.18 --> 4555.98] Well, you know what? +[4555.98 --> 4559.26] We will have to do some game streaming sometime. +[4559.26 --> 4560.62] Uh, sometime. +[4560.62 --> 4562.46] Maybe we'll go over to Luke's house or something. +[4562.46 --> 4563.82] Or, um, yeah, we could. +[4563.82 --> 4564.38] Yeah. +[4564.38 --> 4565.02] We'll play some... +[4565.02 --> 4565.82] We'll have to bring all the... +[4565.82 --> 4566.70] We'll play some Mario Kart. +[4566.70 --> 4567.66] I don't have a LAN PC. +[4567.66 --> 4569.42] No, no, Mario Kart. +[4569.42 --> 4570.38] Oh, Mario Kart. +[4570.38 --> 4572.30] You'll have to show us your skills. +[4572.30 --> 4572.62] Mm-hmm. +[4572.62 --> 4574.06] We'll have to see how that goes. +[4574.06 --> 4579.82] You know what's funny, though, is we could actually do PC game streaming from the office +[4579.82 --> 4580.22] now. +[4580.22 --> 4581.22] Yeah. +[4581.22 --> 4582.22] Yeah. +[4582.22 --> 4587.18] Everybody's work machine is now a legit gaming rig. +[4587.18 --> 4589.18] I need to SLI that. +[4589.18 --> 4590.46] Oh, yeah. +[4590.46 --> 4592.46] We never put an SLI bridge in your machine. +[4592.46 --> 4593.46] No. +[4593.46 --> 4594.46] Well, in theory, you wouldn't need it. +[4594.46 --> 4595.46] Whatever. +[4595.46 --> 4596.46] I need... +[4596.46 --> 4600.46] Have you played Battlefield? +[4600.46 --> 4603.10] Have I played Battlefield 4? +[4603.10 --> 4603.42] Yeah. +[4603.42 --> 4604.30] Not really. +[4604.30 --> 4605.90] I played a little bit of the single player in Gutborg. +[4605.90 --> 4607.10] Can I borrow those? +[4607.10 --> 4607.90] The Titans? +[4607.90 --> 4609.10] You wanna borrow the Titans? +[4609.10 --> 4610.46] How are you gonna get them out of the machine? +[4610.46 --> 4611.46] Scissors. +[4611.46 --> 4613.46] Yeah, that's what I thought. +[4613.46 --> 4614.46] No. +[4614.46 --> 4615.46] Absolutely not. +[4615.46 --> 4616.46] Yeah. +[4616.46 --> 4621.46] So, I SLI'd the first time last week with Duel 770s. +[4621.46 --> 4629.34] Battlefield is running alright, but I am using a two-year-old 8150 that Linus gave me for +[4629.34 --> 4632.74] free when I started interning for him at NCI Tech Tips. +[4632.74 --> 4634.34] That was like two years ago. +[4634.34 --> 4635.34] Yeah, it was. +[4635.34 --> 4636.34] Wow. +[4636.34 --> 4637.34] Yeah. +[4637.34 --> 4641.34] And apparently, the 8150 is bottlenecking my 2SLI cards. +[4641.34 --> 4648.26] Yeah, that 8150 was, uh... that was like... that was like the, uh... the bitch chip even +[4648.26 --> 4649.26] then. +[4649.26 --> 4653.26] And you gave it to me for... for my hard work. +[4653.26 --> 4654.26] Yep. +[4654.26 --> 4655.26] Thanks, Linus. +[4655.26 --> 4661.26] Alright, you got RAM and a motherboard and I'm pretty sure a GPU at some point. +[4661.26 --> 4665.26] So, yeah, it wasn't all... it wasn't all terrible. +[4665.26 --> 4673.26] Alright, so Razer Cortex, their Diels video game tracker is now in... this is in Early Access +[4673.26 --> 4674.26] right now, correct? +[4674.26 --> 4675.26] Yep. +[4675.26 --> 4676.26] Alright, so basically... +[4676.26 --> 4677.26] Bye, David. +[4677.26 --> 4678.26] Bye, David. +[4678.26 --> 4684.26] So, basically, one of the best things about being a PC gamer... you know, just ask PC gamers... +[4684.26 --> 4686.26] there is no $59.99. +[4686.26 --> 4690.26] I mean, there is, for like, two days. +[4690.26 --> 4693.26] Or if it's South Park Stick of Truth... man, that hurt. +[4693.26 --> 4697.26] I didn't buy that until like months after release and it was still $59.99. +[4697.26 --> 4700.26] Anyway, there's no such thing as sticker price. +[4700.26 --> 4702.26] There's always a deal. +[4702.26 --> 4707.26] So, Razer has their new Cortex game deal tracker. +[4707.26 --> 4712.26] It scours the internet tirelessly to let you know of price drops, sweet deals, and exciting +[4712.26 --> 4717.26] promotions on your favorite games so you'll never miss out on another bargain. +[4717.26 --> 4720.26] So, you can sign up for Early Access and check it out. +[4720.26 --> 4724.26] It's in beta and currently comparing prices exclusively in the US region and other regions +[4724.26 --> 4728.26] will come after launch, but that is something that you guys are definitely going to want to check out. +[4728.26 --> 4730.26] Have you signed up? +[4730.26 --> 4731.26] No, I haven't. +[4731.26 --> 4732.26] Really? Are you going to? +[4732.26 --> 4735.26] I have so many things running already. +[4735.26 --> 4739.26] And... I like Steam. +[4739.26 --> 4741.26] That's what I thought about it. +[4741.26 --> 4749.26] I thought, you know, looking at all these features, it looks like Steam and GeForce Experience. +[4749.26 --> 4752.26] It has like the game optimizing tool. +[4752.26 --> 4756.26] And it like defrags your system, which I already do. +[4756.26 --> 4760.26] It like prioritizes things. +[4760.26 --> 4765.26] So, would you even fire it up to see if there was a deal before you bought a game on Steam? +[4765.26 --> 4770.26] Or would you just blindly buy it on Steam because you find the Steam experience so much better? +[4770.26 --> 4773.26] Well, like, depends on how it works. +[4773.26 --> 4777.26] Is it going to send me to any number of dozen sites? +[4777.26 --> 4784.26] Like, I don't want to make a new account for a site every time a deal comes up and it's like on a different site. +[4784.26 --> 4790.26] Like, one reason I buy games off Steam is that it's on Steam. +[4790.26 --> 4791.26] Yeah. +[4791.26 --> 4792.26] You know, there's my Steam wallet. +[4792.26 --> 4794.26] It's just right there. +[4794.26 --> 4797.26] Or EA, Origin Store, Ubisoft Store, I don't buy anything on there. +[4797.26 --> 4800.26] You know, it's like, it's right there. +[4800.26 --> 4801.26] It's convenient. +[4801.26 --> 4803.26] Whereas, Razer doesn't have their store. +[4803.26 --> 4804.26] Right. +[4804.26 --> 4806.26] Like, how are they going to do this? +[4806.26 --> 4807.26] I'm really interested to try it out. +[4807.26 --> 4808.26] I'm going to install it. +[4808.26 --> 4810.26] I'm going to try it out and then I'll see how it goes from there. +[4810.26 --> 4812.26] Maybe it'll be a disaster. +[4812.26 --> 4819.26] But, I mean, Razer has shown that they're pretty serious about building software that makes gaming better. +[4819.26 --> 4822.26] I mean, comms is a great example of that. +[4822.26 --> 4828.26] They saw a gap and they're like, okay, we're going to build something that legitimately addresses a need that people have. +[4828.26 --> 4831.26] So, I'm interested to check this out. +[4831.26 --> 4833.26] Funny that you should mention comms. +[4833.26 --> 4838.26] Dolby Axon wasn't working, like, several times last week. +[4838.26 --> 4840.26] The crew and I used Dolby Axon. +[4840.26 --> 4841.26] Yep. +[4841.26 --> 4843.26] They actually used Razer comms. +[4843.26 --> 4847.26] It's, I think, it has more features than I remember. +[4847.26 --> 4848.26] And it's kind of nice now. +[4848.26 --> 4849.26] Yeah. +[4849.26 --> 4850.26] Gotta say. +[4850.26 --> 4851.26] Yep. +[4851.26 --> 4852.26] They've improved a lot. +[4852.26 --> 4853.26] It's not bad. +[4853.26 --> 4858.26] Okay, we've got a couple more topics before we say goodbye, because it's quarter after six already here. +[4858.26 --> 4862.26] Microsoft claims they are starting to crack down on fake apps in the Windows Store. +[4862.26 --> 4867.26] This was originally posted by Sherman Taker on the forum and the articles from The Verge. +[4867.26 --> 4878.26] And basically, Microsoft says they reached out to devs and told them that they have to make their dev, their, their apps compliant with their new guidelines. +[4878.26 --> 4884.26] Which are that it can't have an icon that's too close to something that is not representative of what it is. +[4884.26 --> 4887.26] I think there were a couple of other things. +[4887.26 --> 4893.26] But basically, there have been devs that are just, like SwiftKey for example. +[4893.26 --> 4895.26] If you go to the SwiftKey, you know what? +[4895.26 --> 4897.26] Not the SwiftKey devs. +[4897.26 --> 4900.26] I'm gonna, yeah, not the SwiftKey devs. +[4900.26 --> 4903.26] But if you search for SwiftKey in the Windows Store, I'm gonna try it now. +[4903.26 --> 4904.26] I've screenshotted it from before. +[4904.26 --> 4905.26] Interesting. +[4905.26 --> 4915.26] But let's do a live test of whether a scam app that I found, um, SwiftKey keyboard has eight ratings for one star. +[4915.26 --> 4916.26] That is a $4 app. +[4916.26 --> 4917.26] Eww. +[4917.26 --> 4923.26] The award-winning app for Android that replaces your on-screen keyboard, giving you the fastest and easiest way to type now on Windows Phone. +[4923.26 --> 4926.26] Uh, let's have a look at the reviews. +[4926.26 --> 4927.26] Eight ratings. +[4927.26 --> 4928.26] Where are the reviews? +[4928.26 --> 4929.26] Here we go. +[4929.26 --> 4930.26] Scam artists. +[4930.26 --> 4931.26] Do not purchase this. +[4931.26 --> 4932.26] This is fake. +[4932.26 --> 4933.26] Very unhappy. +[4933.26 --> 4934.26] Fake app for $4. +[4934.26 --> 4935.26] This is fake. +[4935.26 --> 4936.26] This app does nothing. +[4936.26 --> 4945.26] So, apparently they've removed 1500 apps, based on how many scam apps I found over the last little bit. +[4945.26 --> 4948.26] Um, yeah, that's probably not enough. +[4948.26 --> 4957.26] Uh, developers who refuse to comply with Microsoft's new guidelines are getting them removed, but I think they've still got a lot more work to do. +[4957.26 --> 4960.26] But they're taking steps forward, so that's good. +[4960.26 --> 4962.26] Uh, they're acknowledging the problem. +[4962.26 --> 4965.26] That's all I'm giving them credit for at this point. +[4965.26 --> 4967.26] Well, they're also dealing with it. +[4967.26 --> 4969.26] Sort of. +[4969.26 --> 4973.26] I mean, the one that, the one I tested is still there. +[4973.26 --> 4975.26] So, we'll see. +[4975.26 --> 4979.26] Um, originally posted by Deletive on the forum. +[4979.26 --> 4982.26] The original article here that he's referring to is from Hardware360. +[4982.26 --> 4990.26] And, allegedly, Microsoft will offer the Windows 9 upgrade either free or for $20. +[4990.26 --> 4996.26] So, Microsoft will also have an awesome offer for Windows XP users. +[4996.26 --> 4999.26] To be clear, that price is for Windows 8.1 users. +[4999.26 --> 5006.26] Another tidbit is that the enterprise Windows 9 is rumored to be completely Metro free. +[5006.26 --> 5009.26] So, Metro is the modern UI. +[5009.26 --> 5010.26] You know, this one. +[5010.26 --> 5011.26] Yay! +[5011.26 --> 5013.26] I can scroll back and forth! +[5013.26 --> 5014.26] Woo! +[5014.26 --> 5015.26] Except I don't want to do that. +[5015.26 --> 5016.26] Okay. +[5016.26 --> 5019.26] Um, so cheap Windows upgrade offers aren't unprecedented. +[5019.26 --> 5021.26] They have done this kind of thing before. +[5021.26 --> 5024.26] Oh, it's the Windows store, not the Windows phone store, maybe. +[5024.26 --> 5030.26] Uh, I believe they are actually integrating them moving forward. +[5030.26 --> 5031.26] So, I'm not sure. +[5031.26 --> 5034.26] I think there's some stuff that's in both or whatever the case may be. +[5034.26 --> 5036.26] Either way, they have to address both of them. +[5036.26 --> 5038.26] They need to acknowledge the problem everywhere. +[5038.26 --> 5042.26] Uh, you guys should put sponsors below the stream. +[5042.26 --> 5043.26] Actually, that's not a bad idea. +[5043.26 --> 5046.26] We probably should do that at some point. +[5046.26 --> 5049.26] Alright, well, I think that pretty much wraps it up for the show today. +[5049.26 --> 5054.26] Although, I have one more straw poll for you guys before we go. +[5054.26 --> 5056.26] I'm just gonna create it. +[5056.26 --> 5059.26] I'm gonna put poor Edsel on the spot. +[5059.26 --> 5065.26] What did you think of Edsel's guest co-host spot? +[5065.26 --> 5067.26] Alright, let's come up with some options here. +[5067.26 --> 5069.26] I think it got better towards the end. +[5069.26 --> 5071.26] 10 out of 10, amazing. +[5071.26 --> 5076.26] Would, uh, would love to have him again. +[5076.26 --> 5077.26] 10, okay. +[5077.26 --> 5083.26] Let's go with, uh, 5 out of 10, uh, got better towards the end. +[5083.26 --> 5087.26] And, 1 out of 10, very unfortunate. +[5087.26 --> 5089.26] Wait, why are you doing it out of 10? +[5089.26 --> 5092.26] If there's, if there are only three options. +[5092.26 --> 5095.26] And 0 out of 10, lol. +[5095.26 --> 5097.26] Okay, well, people are gonna choose lol. +[5097.26 --> 5101.26] So basically, basically I'm setting you up for, I'm setting you up for failure here. +[5101.26 --> 5109.26] And I'm also saving you from potentially their devastating negative feedback because you know they're gonna go with 0 out of 10 just for the lols. +[5109.26 --> 5111.26] I've gotten used to negative feedback. +[5111.26 --> 5113.26] Yeah, we all have. +[5113.26 --> 5118.26] You really just spam it like that? +[5118.26 --> 5119.26] Yeah. +[5119.26 --> 5121.26] That way everyone sees it. +[5121.26 --> 5122.26] Edsel is too autistic. +[5122.26 --> 5123.26] Edsel is too autistic. +[5123.26 --> 5124.26] Wow. +[5124.26 --> 5125.26] Wow. +[5125.26 --> 5127.26] Speaking of, uh, getting used to all the negative feedback. +[5127.26 --> 5130.26] Autism actually isn't a thing anymore, apparently. +[5130.26 --> 5134.26] It's been just brought back into the, uh, oh, no, I'm thinking Asperger's. +[5134.26 --> 5135.26] You're thinking Asperger's. +[5135.26 --> 5137.26] Yeah, Asper, autism is definitely a thing. +[5137.26 --> 5138.26] Yeah, it's definitely a thing. +[5138.26 --> 5142.26] I think Asperger's has been brought back under the autism umbrella. +[5142.26 --> 5143.26] Yep. +[5143.26 --> 5144.26] Linus Screenshare. +[5144.26 --> 5146.26] 10 out of 10 amazing. +[5146.26 --> 5147.26] Would love to have him again. +[5147.26 --> 5149.26] Has half of the votes. +[5149.26 --> 5152.26] With 21% of the votes being 5 out of 10. +[5152.26 --> 5153.26] Got better towards the end. +[5153.26 --> 5157.26] Oh, there's a fair bit of 0 out of 10 lol. +[5157.26 --> 5161.26] And 9% say 1 out of 10. +[5161.26 --> 5163.26] Very unfortunate that Luke isn't here. +[5163.26 --> 5170.26] So, it actually looks like the reaction to, uh, to your co-hosting job today has been pretty darn positive. +[5170.26 --> 5171.26] So, good job. +[5171.26 --> 5175.26] Uh, thank you everyone for tuning in to the WAN show. +[5175.26 --> 5179.26] Huge thanks to our sponsors 5-4 Club as well as HyperX. +[5179.26 --> 5181.26] Make sure you try out 5-4 Club. +[5181.26 --> 5185.26] That's, uh, bit.ly slash Linus FFC. +[5185.26 --> 5186.26] I think. +[5186.26 --> 5187.26] There we go. +[5187.26 --> 5190.26] And you get $10 in your first package. +[5190.26 --> 5193.26] Yes, they slip $10 into your package. +[5193.26 --> 5197.26] As well as HyperX. +[5197.26 --> 5198.26] Check

--> 5204.26] And we'll see you again next week. +[5205.26 --> 5207.26] I need a laptop. +[5207.26 --> 5208.26] Yeah, you really need a laptop. +[5208.26 --> 5209.26] Give me a laptop. +[5209.26 --> 5211.26] That hurt you big time. +[5211.26 --> 5214.26] Being able to see the topics and like... +[5214.26 --> 5219.26] I just forget how good that looks. +[5219.26 --> 5220.26] I know, I love this thing. +[5220.26 --> 5222.26] I did a good job with that. +[5222.26 --> 5226.26] Oh, should we, uh, should we show them the, uh, the vinyl stickers? +[5226.26 --> 5227.26] Oh, yeah. +[5227.26 --> 5228.26] Okay. +[5228.26 --> 5229.26] Okay. +[5229.26 --> 5230.26] Very short. +[5230.26 --> 5231.26] Very short after party here. +[5231.26 --> 5232.26] We're gonna, we're gonna go get... +[5232.26 --> 5233.26] Are you gonna grab them? +[5233.26 --> 5234.26] Yeah. +[5234.26 --> 5235.26] Okay. +[5235.26 --> 5237.26] I'll grab these ones if you want to grab at least one from the other room. +[5237.26 --> 5238.26] Okay. +[5238.26 --> 5239.26] Okay. +[5239.26 --> 5243.26] So we got these awesome... +[5243.26 --> 5244.26] Ah, don't break please. +[5244.26 --> 5250.26] We got these awesome vinyl stickers for the walls here. +[5250.26 --> 5253.26] Uh, this has a paper covering over the top of it. +[5253.26 --> 5255.26] So that's why it looks so faded. +[5255.26 --> 5258.26] But it's like, um, I don't even remember what color it is. +[5258.26 --> 5260.26] Is this, is this white and orange? +[5260.26 --> 5261.26] Are you sure? +[5261.26 --> 5262.26] I think so. +[5262.26 --> 5263.26] No, it's like a gray. +[5263.26 --> 5264.26] It's like an off white. +[5264.26 --> 5265.26] Oh, it is white. +[5265.26 --> 5266.26] No, it's white. +[5266.26 --> 5267.26] Okay. +[5267.26 --> 5268.26] It's white. +[5268.26 --> 5272.26] So it's a white and orange Linus Tech Tips that we have for one of the walls. +[5272.26 --> 5280.26] And then, uh, Ed also did a, yeah baby, WAN Stealth logo. +[5280.26 --> 5283.26] So we're gonna put that on one of the walls in the office. +[5283.26 --> 5286.26] And finally, yeah, Brofist! +[5286.26 --> 5288.26] Can they see it? +[5288.26 --> 5289.26] Yep. +[5289.26 --> 5290.26] Sweet. +[5290.26 --> 5292.26] We just damaged it. +[5292.26 --> 5293.26] There you go. +[5293.26 --> 5295.26] Um, eurgh. +[5295.26 --> 5298.26] I actually have, uh, we've put up one... +[5298.26 --> 5301.26] Actually here, do you want to take Brofist and WAN Stealth away before they get damaged? +[5301.26 --> 5302.26] Yeah. +[5302.26 --> 5305.26] It's not faded, it just has like a sheet of paper. +[5305.26 --> 5308.26] Yeah, there's a paper covering over it to keep the multiple pieces in place. +[5308.26 --> 5310.26] Here, I'm, uh, I got them together. +[5310.26 --> 5311.26] There we go. +[5311.26 --> 5315.26] Um, actually I have, uh, an example of what they're gonna look like on the wall. +[5315.26 --> 5320.26] So check this out you guys, it's freaking awesome. +[5320.26 --> 5322.26] I think so anyway. +[5322.26 --> 5329.26] So this is a sneak preview of what the whole room water cooling setup looks like so far. +[5329.26 --> 5337.26] If my, uh, if my stupid drop box would automatically upload, okay. +[5337.26 --> 5340.26] Or we could just go to Edsel's Twitter. +[5340.26 --> 5342.26] Uh, or we could go to Edsel's Twitter. +[5342.26 --> 5346.26] Do you have a shot of the decals and the, uh, and the piping and the systems in from just now? +[5346.26 --> 5348.26] I have like a bunch of pictures. +[5348.26 --> 5349.26] Uh, okay. +[5349.26 --> 5350.26] Okay. +[5350.26 --> 5356.26] You try to do that while I try to do this and whoever does it first is a winner. +[5356.26 --> 5357.26] Okay. +[5357.26 --> 5368.26] Um, so I'm like mailing to myself because Apple's, I took the picture on my iPhone. +[5368.26 --> 5371.26] Apple's thing is like, ah, boom, super broken. +[5371.26 --> 5374.26] Oh, this is your panorama. +[5374.26 --> 5375.26] Oh, okay. +[5375.26 --> 5376.26] Yeah. +[5376.26 --> 5377.26] That should be good. +[5377.26 --> 5378.26] Okay. +[5378.26 --> 5379.26] Oh, they broke it. +[5379.26 --> 5381.26] Actually, I might like my shot better. +[5381.26 --> 5384.26] No, I'm opening my picture. +[5384.26 --> 5385.26] Okay. +[5385.26 --> 5386.26] I'll show this one first. +[5386.26 --> 5387.26] Okay. +[5387.26 --> 5388.26] So there we go. +[5388.26 --> 5391.26] Do you want to just get rid of us? +[5391.26 --> 5392.26] Okay. +[5392.26 --> 5394.26] So that's a panorama shot of the office. +[5394.26 --> 5399.26] Um, basically you can see this is Edsel's workstation, Brandon's workstation. +[5399.26 --> 5403.26] Here's the copper piping coming down for each of the systems. +[5403.26 --> 5409.26] This one's going to be for, um, the potential new employee who I'm going to hear back from this weekend. +[5409.26 --> 5411.26] This is for Taryn's workstation. +[5411.26 --> 5412.26] This is an extra. +[5412.26 --> 5413.26] This is for my workstation. +[5413.26 --> 5415.26] And here are the vinyl decals on the wall. +[5415.26 --> 5421.26] And then here, I'm just going to switch back to this so that I can go into my email. +[5421.26 --> 5425.26] Oh, I just heard from Chris from NCIX. +[5425.26 --> 5428.26] NCIX challenges Linus Tech Tips to Mario Kart 8. +[5428.26 --> 5429.26] Oh, they're watching. +[5429.26 --> 5431.26] I guess you should have known that was coming. +[5432.26 --> 5434.26] Can I be on their team? +[5434.26 --> 5435.26] Nooooo. +[5436.26 --> 5437.26] What do you think this is? +[5437.26 --> 5440.26] You're going to abandon us in our hour of need? +[5440.26 --> 5441.26] They're better. +[5442.26 --> 5443.26] Wow. +[5444.26 --> 5445.26] Wow. +[5445.26 --> 5446.26] It's not... +[5446.26 --> 5448.26] This is about family. +[5448.26 --> 5449.26] This is not about... +[5449.26 --> 5450.26] Okay. +[5450.26 --> 5455.26] If we want to talk about family, I do game with them pretty much every night. +[5455.26 --> 5456.26] Uh-huh. +[5456.26 --> 5458.26] With, uh, voice chat and all. +[5459.26 --> 5460.26] Versus... +[5460.26 --> 5462.26] Just working over here. +[5463.26 --> 5464.26] Yeah, so... +[5464.26 --> 5466.26] Someone says I should fire Edsel. +[5466.26 --> 5467.26] Actually, no one said that. +[5467.26 --> 5469.26] That was just what I was thinking. +[5471.26 --> 5473.26] Oh, I can't even believe you. +[5473.26 --> 5478.26] Anyway, so this is a not panorama shot, which I personally find a little bit easier to digest, +[5478.26 --> 5479.26] because I'm old. +[5479.26 --> 5480.26] Of... +[5480.26 --> 5484.26] Uh, this is Terran's water-cooled system right here. +[5484.26 --> 5486.26] Oh, you took that, like, recently. +[5486.26 --> 5487.26] This is the extra. +[5487.26 --> 5490.26] Uh, here's my machine over in the corner running off of this one. +[5490.26 --> 5493.26] And then we've got Brofist and Wan Stealth. +[5493.26 --> 5494.26] Sort of centered. +[5494.26 --> 5495.26] Look at how much extra space is. +[5495.26 --> 5496.26] Whatever. +[5496.26 --> 5499.26] Uh, sort of centered on the wall in there. +[5500.26 --> 5501.26] So, yeah. +[5501.26 --> 5502.26] Love it. +[5502.26 --> 5503.26] Those pipes look sketchy. +[5504.26 --> 5505.26] What looks sketchy about them? +[5506.26 --> 5507.26] Oh, maybe that stuff. +[5507.26 --> 5508.26] Oh, that's just a... +[5508.26 --> 5509.26] It's a label. +[5509.26 --> 5510.26] That's a label. +[5510.26 --> 5511.26] Yeah, it's no big deal. +[5511.26 --> 5514.26] They're copper pipes that were soldered by Luke's dad, so... +[5514.26 --> 5515.26] Need to be painted. +[5515.26 --> 5516.26] Need to be painted? +[5516.26 --> 5517.26] That makes sense. +[5517.26 --> 5518.26] Nah, I don't want to paint them. +[5518.26 --> 5519.26] I like the copper look. +[5519.26 --> 5520.26] Because the copper looks cool. +[5520.26 --> 5521.26] Yeah, we have, um... +[5522.26 --> 5523.26] Like, can we polish it somehow? +[5523.26 --> 5524.26] Yes! +[5524.26 --> 5525.26] Okay. +[5525.26 --> 5530.26] Luke's dad gave us this, um, this stuff that we can use to polish it quite quickly. +[5530.26 --> 5535.26] And then we're planning to paint a varnish layer over the top, so that they really shine. +[5536.26 --> 5537.26] I'm, uh, I'm super stoked. +[5537.26 --> 5538.26] It's gonna look awesome. +[5538.26 --> 5539.26] Alright, guys. +[5539.26 --> 5540.26] Thanks for watching. +[5540.26 --> 5541.26] See ya next week. +[5542.26 --> 5543.26] AHHHHH! diff --git a/The WAN Show NVIDIA vs AMD FIGHT

show the weekly show where you listen to us +[22.30 --> 27.04] talk for anywhere from I think the shortest show we've ever done is about an hour and a quarter +[27.04 --> 33.34] and the longest ones we've done are like reaching up around three hours yeah we've we've done some +[33.34 --> 38.38] I have to go at six you have to go at six yeah what do you think this is some kind of company +[38.38 --> 43.16] where like work ends at six I think this is the first time that I've even said that in like a +[43.16 --> 49.04] really long time why are you still wearing that yeah I'm wearing my lav mic because I uh yeah +[49.04 --> 53.24] because I'm wearing my lav mic I'm gonna take my lav mic off you know what I wonder if that would +[53.24 --> 57.50] just be the solution I should I should yell at Brandon to bring me the other thing and if we +[57.50 --> 62.90] just each wore lavs I wonder if that would just be better anyway guys we've got a great show for you +[62.90 --> 71.78] today as always this week the big topics are the Gameworks controversy Nvidia and AMD are at it again +[71.78 --> 78.62] and surprising super butthurt at each other again surprising we're really surprised oh yeah here +[78.62 --> 84.16] you're a little far over that way scoochin we never uh we never can quite get the whole where +[84.16 --> 90.52] we should put like x's on the chair so that we know like where it aligns with kind of the butthole +[90.52 --> 98.36] so that you can be in exactly the right spot every week uh yeah that would work yeah I mean if we +[98.36 --> 103.04] didn't want to go for the whole butthole thing then we could just put like butt marks around the +[103.04 --> 107.92] outside of where the cheeks go but then if one of us put on some weight then we wouldn't be able to see +[107.92 --> 115.56] them anyway not that that's happened to either of us lately we switched I wouldn't we switched I +[115.56 --> 122.84] know oh my goodness we did too yeah you'll get it back I don't really want to talk about it all +[122.84 --> 129.26] right so there's the AMD thing there's an SSD middleware that could be coming that could they're +[129.26 --> 136.56] claiming quadruple your SSDs performance and this is without actually buying a new SSD although I'd be +[136.56 --> 142.48] surprised to see something like that implemented for free what else we got oh I gotta jump back up +[142.48 --> 146.06] there uh Google is gonna start building their own self-driving cars they've had this kind of stuff +[146.06 --> 149.60] going on for a while but they're actually gonna start manufacturing these cars which is really +[149.60 --> 155.42] interesting and true crypt may or may not be compromised I'll talk about that more later may not +[155.42 --> 162.12] yeah there's new stuff that I found recently oh even more new stuff okay this is an ever-changing topic +[162.12 --> 172.24] so +[172.24 --> 196.86] so our sponsors of the show today are asus with the excellent g750 jay-z gaming notebook +[196.86 --> 206.28] and of course modus who are running their geek stakes 2014 facebook sweepstakes where you and +[206.28 --> 213.16] anyone you know who's interested in getting a job as a in the it industry can go and head over to +[213.16 --> 218.38] facebook.com slash modus to get more details on how you can win a bunch of really cool stuff it's +[218.38 --> 222.60] been running all week and actually we've been getting a lot of pretty darn positive feedback +[222.60 --> 230.58] about it so stay tuned for us to explain more about that later after we actually do a show here so +[230.58 --> 238.74] first order of business you know what why don't we just straight up jump into the nvidia amd thing i +[238.74 --> 244.06] think that's uh that's a pretty nice topic to give to the people who were sitting there waiting for +[244.06 --> 249.44] us to start the show you guys are awesome thank you for being on time even though we rarely are +[249.44 --> 253.74] were we on time today ish ish like one minute late yeah i think we're like one minute late +[253.74 --> 260.82] and we pre-streamed a little bit before but like my laptop still isn't plugged in so if screen sharing +[260.82 --> 266.18] doesn't work the way that it normally should we need that checklist we're yeah we're we're gonna be in a +[266.18 --> 275.40] little bit of trouble here so yeah all right okay so this was posted originally by booker dewitt +[275.40 --> 283.56] on the forum and it is an article from forbes about why watchdogs is bad news for amd users and +[283.56 --> 292.72] potentially the entire pc gaming ecosystem so this isn't exactly a new thing for amd to wave the flag +[292.72 --> 299.42] about and what they're basically saying is that gameworks represents a clear and present threat to +[299.42 --> 305.38] gamers by deliberately crippling performance on amd products now what gameworks effectively +[305.40 --> 311.72] is is it's a um it's a it's a toolkit that game developers can use to implement features +[311.72 --> 318.84] or um basically features features or graphical um well really features features features features +[318.84 --> 324.80] features features implement features into their games without actually coding the whole thing +[324.80 --> 331.70] themselves so when i was at nvidia's um montreal event they were showing off some of the big improvements +[331.70 --> 338.82] that they had made recently to gameworks with things like particles and fire where to to put it +[338.82 --> 346.50] sort of in really really simple terms it's kind of like on a camera having a profile that makes the image +[346.50 --> 352.18] look better or adds an effect to your image where the game developer doesn't actually have to dial in +[352.18 --> 356.10] all the manual settings and figure out how to do themselves so it's basically like think of it like +[356.10 --> 362.34] dragging and dropping fire effects into your game so that it looks like this great realistic fire +[363.06 --> 369.70] when all you had to do yourself was like put it there and then it animates itself so that's what +[369.70 --> 377.94] gameworks is but what amd doesn't like about it is that developers license these proprietary nvidia +[377.94 --> 384.82] technologies in order to make their games look great but that doesn't give amd any kind of real +[384.82 --> 391.46] insight or necessarily a way to optimize their driver to perform well when rendering that feature +[391.46 --> 397.46] in that game so things like smoke and lighting and textures and shadows and all that kind of stuff +[397.46 --> 406.18] can hurt performance on amd cards says robert hallix so participation often okay so okay this is from the +[406.18 --> 411.38] original article so participation in the gameworks program often precludes the developer from accepting +[411.38 --> 416.50] amd suggestions that would improve performance directly in the game code the most desirable form +[416.50 --> 423.30] of optimization so basically he's also saying that this makes it more difficult for them to perform +[423.30 --> 431.06] their own after the fact driver optimizations and it's basically yeah you know amd doesn't support or +[431.06 --> 439.38] condone such activities and it's like super poopy and terrible now a couple days went by and nvidia fired +[439.38 --> 445.78] back and basically i'm a little surprised at how long it took but i can understand why they would +[445.78 --> 450.82] have wanted to be very careful about their response they don't want to say anything that's that's not +[450.82 --> 455.94] correct so nvidia came back and said look we'll have a we have a kickoff meeting with the developers +[455.94 --> 461.54] we'll brainstorm cool new effects we'll show them the catalogs that we have and then we'll prototype +[461.54 --> 465.54] something outside of their engine give them an idea what the effect might look like and we work with the +[465.54 --> 472.58] developers but we don't and never have restricted anyone from getting access as part of our agreements +[472.58 --> 477.14] not with watchdogs and not with other titles our agreements focus on interesting things we're going +[477.14 --> 482.82] to do together to improve the experience for all pc gamers and of course for nvidia customers we don't +[482.82 --> 488.10] have anything in there restricting anyone from accessing source code or binaries and developers are free +[488.10 --> 499.38] to give builds out to whoever they want it's their product so pretty much where we're at right now +[499.38 --> 506.42] is he says she says which is the usual thing with amd and nvidia um i don't think i don't think +[506.42 --> 511.22] we're likely to get any kind of an official response from any game developer because the last thing they're +[511.22 --> 517.94] going to want to do is jeopardize yeah their relationship remember game developers need both amd and nvidia on +[517.94 --> 525.70] board ultimately even uh the way it's meant to be played title the dev wants it to run on amd cards +[525.70 --> 531.54] they're not going to ignore 40 of the market or 30 however odd percent of the market by just making it +[531.54 --> 536.58] run like poo on amd cards if they don't have to there's there's some speculation about the whole source +[536.58 --> 541.54] code thing because they could be like yeah you can release the source code but our parts are obfuscated so +[541.54 --> 547.38] you can't actually read that part of the source code so you can get to some of it but then whenever one of +[547.38 --> 552.26] the game works effects is going to go off you're really not going to know what's happening there +[552.26 --> 557.54] so it's it's it's it comes down to wording and what's actually being said so let's talk a little +[557.54 --> 565.06] bit about what you'd rather see i mean amd did their whole mantle thing which i don't think they've +[565.06 --> 571.38] actually opened it up to nvidia yet even though they said that they would at some point where basically +[571.38 --> 578.34] the game would have to be coded completely differently to run um on directx versus on mantle +[578.34 --> 584.90] whereas what nvidia is doing is they're approaching developers and going okay here's a feature it'll run +[584.90 --> 592.34] on whatever but the performance is obviously you know built for our hardware we're optimizing for +[592.34 --> 598.34] nvidia um and the positive and negative things here are both pretty clear to me so positive number one +[598.34 --> 603.94] is that we're getting much better visual effects than we otherwise would have been able to or much +[603.94 --> 612.02] less work required for very small devs to create visually stunning games games that will run on amd +[612.02 --> 618.18] but won't necessarily perform the best and then the disadvantage is that it creates this segmentation +[618.18 --> 624.98] where nvidia is kind of helping developers make games that run better on nvidia hardware +[628.34 --> 633.62] and potentially depending on who you believe make it more difficult to run on amd hardware or at least +[633.62 --> 639.22] more difficult to optimize yeah i don't know if i'd say more difficult to run so if you had your way +[640.58 --> 647.38] would you say i developer x i would like you to use gameworks or i wouldn't like you to use gameworks +[648.34 --> 653.86] and let's say let's say i let's give you guys two you know what let's get struggle struggle it so i want +[653.86 --> 660.82] two options i want triple a developer and then i want indie developer so allow multiple poll choices +[660.82 --> 668.34] so aa developer yes aaa developer no indy yes indy no would you like for them to use it or would you +[668.34 --> 673.62] like for them to not if they can save some dev costs if they can bring it to you earlier if they can +[673.62 --> 680.82] spend that time on developing gameplay more as opposed to animating better fire or something like that +[680.82 --> 688.82] how do you guys feel about it because i mean for to me gameworks is a very natural evolution of what +[688.82 --> 698.02] already existed as gaming evolved the way it's meant to be played these programs where nvidia and amd +[698.02 --> 704.18] and often both of them at the same time are working very closely with game developers in order to optimize +[704.18 --> 710.18] the game to me this is just nvidia taking a very proactive approach to that so instead of a game developer +[710.18 --> 714.34] building something bringing it to nvidia and them going okay let's optimize it they're giving them +[714.34 --> 722.58] something that's optimized in the first place it doesn't feel wrong to me but it does put amd at +[722.58 --> 728.82] a disadvantage but that's just amd or that's just nvidia working very closely with developers and +[728.82 --> 734.50] proactively helping developers make better games even though they could they could go out of their way +[734.50 --> 741.86] and let the source code be leaked to amd if you were nvidia would you do that see but they built the +[741.86 --> 745.94] technology yeah you've got you've got multiple arguments for that as well but then you can turn +[745.94 --> 751.86] around and go amd built trust effects and allows anyone to use it in all one game that it's being +[751.86 --> 759.14] used in whereas nvidia has created i mean that's something that i got to look at too and i go okay amd or +[759.14 --> 764.34] nvidia can say here's what we're giving to developers but at the end of the day whether or not developers +[764.34 --> 768.90] are using them to me even though i'm not a game dev and i don't really understand how these tools work +[768.90 --> 773.38] very intimately i look at it and i go well this is the one the developers are actually using +[775.46 --> 781.14] how useful was the other stuff that they're not using i don't know yeah i don't know personally i don't +[781.14 --> 785.30] think i'm as as against games works as a lot of people are and that's that's another thing too like +[785.30 --> 791.14] if you look back at the forbes article they have a picture for uh 290x versus 770 +[794.50 --> 801.46] if you see that oh uh can you send me the link it's in the doc it's in the doc oh that makes sense +[801.46 --> 806.90] okay right there there we go all right so guys here's the the image that luke is referring to and +[806.90 --> 810.90] then if you go to i wonder if i can find it on the network i should be able to find it on the network +[810.90 --> 816.74] i should have looked for this earlier but my charts i seriously don't think it was that bad +[816.74 --> 823.54] like the the gap differences for tier equivalents right were really not that far away especially +[823.54 --> 830.66] considering like how scared so many people were at the very beginning and considering that we run stock +[830.66 --> 835.86] coolers on everything yeah so the current nvidia stock coolers are making colder cards than the current +[835.86 --> 841.62] amd ones are which are running really hot so a lot of our overclocking and nvidia benefit from a cooler +[841.62 --> 846.42] running card yeah exactly so some of our overclocks are getting higher on nvidia right now just because +[846.42 --> 852.98] we have more overclocking headroom due to thermals if we we we do stock cards so next generation might +[852.98 --> 861.38] flip-flop reference cards reference cards yeah sorry um so like it's not like that changed and the amd +[861.38 --> 866.26] cards are still really close so i don't know i don't see it being this horrible thing that everyone's +[866.26 --> 870.10] talking about like maybe it was harder for amd to do it i know they're talking about how they're not +[870.10 --> 875.86] going to be able to fix it as much afterwards with drivers as they could have before um it's in the +[875.86 --> 880.82] actual folder for the actual thing yeah it's okay i mean ultimately the thing here though is that +[880.82 --> 887.70] both amd and nvidia did manage to have optimized drivers available for the game's public release +[887.70 --> 897.06] and then for all the good it did anyone because watchdogs is well yeah a bit of a dog right now in +[897.06 --> 903.86] the forbes article that he's showing 290x and 770 being very competitive in mine here i've got it now +[903.86 --> 913.06] here we go there so guys have a look at this so we've got 780 and 290x being within 10 of each other +[913.06 --> 919.70] and then 290 trailing another couple of percent after that with 770 getting absolutely destroyed +[919.70 --> 926.50] and like everyone calls us nvidia fanboys and like what the forbes article showed them with the +[926.50 --> 932.34] 770 winning and they're like amd was crushed in this blah blah like no they did totally fine +[933.14 --> 939.94] it wasn't even that bad for how much they were suppressed and stuff yeah like i don't actually see +[939.94 --> 944.50] it as being that big of a deal maybe the run that i had didn't have a crazy amount of game works +[945.06 --> 952.18] effects i don't like i don't know i really don't think i wonder what forbes.com knows about game +[952.18 --> 958.90] benchmarking anyway no and i'm not even i'm not even i actually didn't read the article so straight up +[958.90 --> 963.22] i didn't read the article maybe you guys can tell me maybe they have a fantastic benchmarking methodology +[963.22 --> 968.90] i'll be the first to admit ours isn't the best either but i i like i just i wonder how they're actually +[968.90 --> 975.14] benchmarking the game yeah uh because it just has nothing to do with the results that we're getting +[975.14 --> 982.18] so and i to my knowledge they haven't done a ton of video card reviews like i saw an r9 295 x21 because +[982.18 --> 987.22] i was getting a lot of tweets back when that card was released going hey linus why did you not get a +[987.22 --> 993.22] sample of this card and forbes.com did and i was kind of like i don't know um because forbes isn't +[993.22 --> 998.74] really known they're more known for market analysis and less known for actually taking physical +[998.74 --> 1004.66] hardware and reviewing it so it just seemed like a bit of a a bit of a weird thing to me yeah so there +[1004.66 --> 1011.30] you have it guys um that's the current state of affairs we'll update you guys if anything happens but +[1011.30 --> 1017.78] i personally see this as a bit of a non-issue for the moment especially because the differences in +[1017.78 --> 1022.98] performance really don't look very different from other games whether they are a way it's meant to be +[1022.98 --> 1030.18] played or a gaming evolved title in fact i haven't seen obvious optimization to the point where it's +[1030.18 --> 1038.98] like yes this game is clearly handicapped in a really long time yeah all right so moving on to +[1038.98 --> 1046.58] our next topic speaking of watchdogs this was an article from the register but uh they're not the +[1046.58 --> 1055.54] only ones reporting on this tens of thousands of watchdogs pirates enslaved by bitcoin bot master i +[1055.54 --> 1064.34] think that's a very sensationalist headline but it doesn't change anything about the fact that pirating +[1064.34 --> 1072.18] games is just plain not a very good idea sometimes so basically what was happening is your machine you +[1072.18 --> 1077.22] would install the game and run it and your machine would launch another executable that would start +[1077.22 --> 1085.78] to mine bitcoins for the right now it's not very clear whether it was the original cracker of the +[1085.78 --> 1090.10] game or whether it was someone who took a cracked release that they claim they never did maybe you +[1090.10 --> 1094.66] have some on the on the watchdogs video people were saying that i was wrong because i said the the guy +[1094.66 --> 1100.34] that cracked it put in the thing but then other places where i've looked up are saying that the guy that +[1100.34 --> 1108.02] cracked it just faked skid row's name skid row is a very popular well-known game cracker um so i don't +[1108.02 --> 1114.10] know what actually happened but something happened and one that a lot of people downloaded had a minor in +[1114.10 --> 1119.86] it so so the great thing about this is particularly on lower end machines that was having a dramatic +[1119.86 --> 1125.62] impact on the game's performance which might be where some of the oh watchdogs runs terribly stuff +[1125.62 --> 1131.86] was coming from although from what we've seen it really doesn't look better than something like +[1131.86 --> 1136.42] far cry 3. unless the official version also has a minor in it i don't just i'm kidding +[1137.78 --> 1144.34] one thing that i thought was pretty funny that's interesting what a free game that instead of being +[1144.34 --> 1149.14] you can choose you can go okay i'll pay for the game or i'll mine for you or i'll mine for you +[1149.14 --> 1155.30] that's interesting anyway um moving moving along one thing i want to bring up one another one of the +[1155.30 --> 1159.94] comments on the video i should have quoted this somewhere but the guy was saying um it's it's +[1159.94 --> 1164.42] funny because the pirated version didn't get a three-hour mission which was defeating you play to be +[1164.42 --> 1168.10] able to play the game yeah i know right that was hilarious i don't know he might have said it in some +[1168.10 --> 1174.42] other way but yeah it's so true trying to benchmark it was really difficult because logging into you play +[1174.42 --> 1178.98] was such a challenge half the time would just be like you don't have an internet internet connection i'm like +[1178.98 --> 1184.18] actually yeah i do would really like if you just worked now and you have to sit there clicking try +[1184.18 --> 1190.18] again for like forever so the way that it worked is it would launch this miner and then once you close +[1190.18 --> 1198.58] down the game that would actually continue to run so whoever did this is like pretty freaking oh yeah +[1198.58 --> 1204.50] happy right now yeah and then there's a bunch of pretty upset people about the uh about well the fact +[1204.50 --> 1208.90] that they just generated a bunch of bitcoins for some butthead you part of the game +[1208.90 --> 1215.38] so i can't feel that bad one of the conspiracy theories running around was that ubisoft did it +[1217.86 --> 1222.58] i don't think they're that in need of money but that would be that would be pretty funny leaking your +[1222.58 --> 1227.94] own pirated game but just putting a like a bitcoin miner in it so it's like yeah you don't want to +[1227.94 --> 1235.62] pay for the game guess what dog that would actually be really funny or if it was like some guy at ubisoft +[1236.18 --> 1243.62] that did it with that intention fantastic all right let's move on to our oh we never got the straw poll +[1243.62 --> 1249.62] results did i get a link for that i posted in chat a billion times um i don't think i have the link so +[1249.62 --> 1257.62] i do okay i i i'm afraid of what's going to happen if we do this but if i just no no no just go to chat +[1257.62 --> 1261.94] go to chat okay i'm going to chat i'm going to chat i got this i got this okay guys so let's have a look +[1261.94 --> 1269.78] at the straw poll results i don't remember what i asked ah yes should they use gameworks and wow +[1271.06 --> 1277.46] so the majority of you you made it a multi-vote poll right yeah well i don't think too many people voted for +[1277.46 --> 1282.10] more than one result i think that adds up to about 100 but anyway the majority of you are just saying +[1282.10 --> 1288.82] yes you you and especially indie devs you'd like to see indie devs be able to take advantage of this +[1288.82 --> 1295.62] deliver a game i mean that runs on amd hardware based on the amount of votes there so okay it doesn't +[1295.62 --> 1302.42] matter yeah so that might look better than if i don't remember what i'm talking right that might +[1302.42 --> 1307.14] look better than if they had to code all this stuff themselves as long as it runs on amd then you're +[1307.14 --> 1312.58] still totally cool with them optimizing it using nvidia's tools so i mean i think that's great +[1312.58 --> 1317.62] because there's been a lot of a lot of back and forth about this with some people declaring game +[1317.62 --> 1322.50] works to be the worst thing ever and others you know kind of trumpeting the nvidia horn and i don't +[1322.50 --> 1328.34] think either is the right answer it's somewhere in between as it usually is whenever fanboys get +[1328.34 --> 1334.02] involved in some kind of an argument yeah i don't know i just i just don't like i when i when i was +[1334.02 --> 1338.10] reading through all this kind of stuff i was expecting the worst thing ever me too and then +[1338.10 --> 1344.34] it was just really not that bad i was i was expecting half of watchdogs to basically be +[1344.34 --> 1351.54] running off of like nvidia grid at their headquarters and ubisoft didn't even know what was inside the +[1351.54 --> 1356.82] black box but it's not that at all wasn't it bioshock where if you had an amd card you couldn't see +[1356.82 --> 1360.98] certain effects in the game if you can see the water coming out of a pipe uh you're thinking of +[1360.98 --> 1366.02] borderlands 2 borderlands 2 yeah sorry no like i was expecting something more along those lines +[1366.02 --> 1373.22] yeah and that is that is still something that a bothers me and b i do think is terrible for the +[1373.22 --> 1379.86] industry like the way that physics is implemented and will always be implemented as long as it's not +[1379.86 --> 1386.58] something that amd and nvidia users can leverage equally is just not that compelling to me once we can +[1386.58 --> 1393.06] use physics technology across the board you could actually make a game that's designed to use it +[1393.06 --> 1399.46] yeah and make that destructibility of the environment and all those other things that you can do through +[1399.46 --> 1406.66] physics part of an integral part of gameplay i mean the the last game we got that really used physics was +[1406.66 --> 1415.78] like cell factor and that was a physics showcase piece yeah i'm still waiting and for that yeah and poopy +[1416.58 --> 1424.18] not a very well received game at all i mean as much as it's great to walk around on the street and +[1424.18 --> 1432.58] like kick cans out of your way it doesn't feel like a compelling gameplay element to me all right so +[1432.58 --> 1438.82] the original poster on linus tech tips.com was ren for this one finally a super easy name to say yeah i +[1438.82 --> 1446.74] know right i have so much difficulty with that ren please post more jp research team develops ssd middleware +[1446.74 --> 1453.94] that improves speed by 300 and the headlines don't seem to necessarily all agree about exactly how this +[1453.94 --> 1459.94] works but basically what they're doing is instead of writing data to a on a new blank page data is written +[1459.94 --> 1465.86] on a fragmented page located in the block to be erased next so it's kind of predictively because the way that +[1465.86 --> 1472.90] ssds work is you can't just overwrite something you have to blank it first which is actually the +[1472.90 --> 1478.58] time consuming part of writing something but it gets more complicated than that you don't just you +[1478.58 --> 1484.02] can't just blank something and then write over top of it because you might need to rearrange some of the +[1484.02 --> 1488.82] stuff that's written within that cell and put it somewhere else but that gets more complicated than +[1488.82 --> 1493.54] that because you don't even if you were to rewrite all this stuff all over the place blanket and then +[1493.54 --> 1500.18] write to it you don't want to unnecessarily blank pages if you don't have to because that significantly +[1500.18 --> 1506.34] degrades the longevity of the ssd so the way that they work is really complicated what this is going +[1506.34 --> 1512.26] to do is it's going to look for predictively which one is going to be blanked next and then try to +[1512.26 --> 1518.74] proactively make room for your right so it might not affect read speeds that much but it will affect +[1518.74 --> 1523.06] reads in the context of that you won't have to wait around for writes and it should affect write +[1523.06 --> 1528.90] speeds dramatically and they're also claiming that you could increase the product life up to i think +[1528.90 --> 1534.98] they're saying around 55 percent not to mention you lower power consumption because you're not doing as +[1534.98 --> 1544.02] much random shuffling around of data but wait there's more it looks like this could be as simple as a +[1544.02 --> 1550.74] middleware layer that sits between the ssd and your operating system and it does all or between your +[1550.74 --> 1557.14] driver or between the controller sits in the middle it sits in the middle somewhere and you might not +[1557.14 --> 1563.46] even need a new ssd which is kind of awesome i i don't see a ton of different manufacturers implementing +[1563.46 --> 1573.78] this for free yeah i'd imagine it's going to be more like uh now with turbo charge uber wanger i don't +[1573.78 --> 1583.14] know whatever i don't wanger could mean fast probably not no no i'm thinking wow that car is totally wanger +[1583.14 --> 1589.86] oh god don't make that a thing um it was in a simulation so i'm not sure if we'll see exactly this +[1589.86 --> 1594.58] much speed and power improvement all that kind of stuff in real life but it's exciting to see someone +[1594.58 --> 1602.42] improving ssds in this way yeah yeah i mean ssd the thing about ssds is look at how stagnant it's been +[1602.42 --> 1610.66] yep in terms of flash speeds in terms of interface speeds and in terms of capacities it's not really +[1610.66 --> 1617.46] moving very fast and everyone's kind of jumping on the whoa we need pci express and we need sata express +[1617.46 --> 1625.70] well we needed it two years ago did we flash is not getting faster with each new generation flash +[1625.70 --> 1630.74] is continuing to actually get slower and less reliable because of the smaller manufacturing +[1630.74 --> 1635.70] processes and it's not like and we're not going to get a dramatic improvement there until we get +[1635.70 --> 1641.38] a big shift in the way that flash is manufactured so people are saying wanger in chat raise your wangers +[1642.10 --> 1647.30] okay guys you've got two minutes of raising wangers all you want and then we need it to go away or +[1647.30 --> 1654.02] we're going to start giving people times at timeouts um but basically we need more we need smarter +[1654.02 --> 1658.58] software we need smarter controllers in order to really get more out of our ssds i think a great +[1658.58 --> 1667.30] example is plexters m6e which is not straight up not faster than a sata ssd in real world tests yes you +[1667.30 --> 1673.94] get better sequential reads and not necessarily even writes but we're limited by other factors still so yeah +[1673.94 --> 1678.50] yeah i don't know it'll be interesting to see what this does when it's actually in the hands of +[1678.50 --> 1682.66] people instead of a simulation yeah because a lot of the time i love it how we're always getting these +[1682.66 --> 1689.06] like new holographic disc enables 500 terabytes per disc and then it turns out it's impossible to +[1689.06 --> 1693.54] manufacture there's some other kind of show-stopping and like you can you can put data on it but you can +[1693.54 --> 1699.62] never read from it it's like oh yeah like you have to like make it out of like you know ubiquitamium +[1699.62 --> 1706.26] which contrary to the name is not ubiquitous i was just like so everyone has this one +[1708.26 --> 1713.62] uh that is a segue into skype translator because it's something that they're talking about which i +[1713.62 --> 1719.78] really don't think is going to happen at least anytime soon it's like way down in rapid fire +[1719.78 --> 1723.46] okay i'll find it i'll find it go ahead and keep there's not even really much i want to say about +[1723.46 --> 1726.90] this they're they're trying to do something called skype translator which as far as i can tell is going to +[1726.90 --> 1732.66] take what you say and translate it into some form of tts or text to speak and then say it out of the +[1732.66 --> 1736.58] other person's speakers or headphones whatever so you can talk to people over skype in different +[1736.58 --> 1742.74] languages and it's all translated and this was posted by raffi on the forum but like the open api for +[1742.74 --> 1749.62] microsoft translating stuff is terrible and it's microsoft so they'll probably work on it and then like +[1749.62 --> 1755.06] it'll disappear or something and there's way more important things in my opinion that they need to fix +[1755.06 --> 1760.98] with skype so hopefully they do that instead of making this um i don't know how many people are +[1760.98 --> 1766.82] going to go for voice chat over skype that don't know how to speak a common language um but it might +[1766.82 --> 1774.66] be fun honestly when looking at this i see i see it more as being fun than anything else like maybe it'll +[1774.66 --> 1781.46] help people learn different languages or something like that i don't know i mean i i see it being kind of +[1781.46 --> 1785.78] niche like something like this like i actually i didn't know about this even though it's about a +[1785.78 --> 1790.90] four-year-old app for iphone at this point but word lens allows you to look at something in real +[1790.90 --> 1795.62] time through your phone and have it actually translate on the fly um and it's actually like +[1795.62 --> 1802.10] it's pretty darn cool we were playing around with it a little bit today at ncix but by and large +[1802.98 --> 1808.74] most people won't be using it i mean there's i i think that in the future we're going to see language +[1808.74 --> 1815.38] barriers broken down this way but i just i don't think this is really it we're so far away that +[1815.38 --> 1820.18] it's kind of it's not like oculus where it's like yeah we're like pumped about this because it's like +[1820.18 --> 1828.42] happening soon it's like yeah my phone can barely tell what i'm saying to it now with like google voice +[1828.42 --> 1834.02] yeah i don't think it's really gonna work when it's like going through different languages and then +[1834.02 --> 1838.10] there's all the problems with converting language into another language and then having it still +[1838.10 --> 1842.50] make any sense at all yep that's a huge issue especially when you bring in stuff like slang +[1842.50 --> 1848.66] and other things which leads us pretty well into google starting to build their own self-driving +[1848.66 --> 1854.66] cars i wish i could say i called this i did say i thought we were going to get an i car but apple has +[1854.66 --> 1860.42] instead gone it's funny you look at the reversal here where apple used to be all about building it +[1860.42 --> 1867.62] themselves and google used to be all about partnering whereas now for phones i think that +[1867.62 --> 1874.18] they have um been bitten a little bit on the whole partnering thing they've created a monster out of +[1874.18 --> 1879.54] samsung and kind of gone well hold on a second they would have been nowhere yeah without android +[1879.54 --> 1885.62] without us and you look at glass uh there i mean yes they're releasing the the lightweight android +[1885.62 --> 1890.58] that's going to run on wearables and they will have partners but it just they've done most of +[1890.58 --> 1895.70] the branding around it themselves with their own hardware before they're even talking about you know +[1895.70 --> 1899.78] letting anyone else have access to any of this stuff you look at what they're doing with this car where +[1899.78 --> 1904.58] they're going to build their own self-driving car you look at nexus program or whatever it's called +[1904.58 --> 1909.62] silver now or whatever else it seems feels like they're moving in the direction of controlling the +[1909.62 --> 1914.82] user experience and there is something to be said for that but then apple on the other hand is going okay yeah +[1914.82 --> 1919.46] we're going to partner with ford and toyota and everyone to integrate our technology into the +[1919.46 --> 1926.82] existing products so this is it guys yeah it looks ridiculous but that's not really the point it looks +[1926.82 --> 1934.02] like a super unimpressed little like teddy bear yeah it's kind of look like a face doesn't it +[1936.18 --> 1942.74] yeah and if you like a totally not happy face at all he's just like nope i'm doing things you +[1942.74 --> 1947.70] enslaved me to drive around so i guess i can do that or whatever it is kind of slavery i guess +[1949.14 --> 1958.10] so this was posted on the forum by johnners and instead of even having a steering wheel or pedals +[1958.10 --> 1962.26] which is something i personally am pretty uncomfortable with i'd like to have the option +[1962.26 --> 1969.22] to manual override to manual override i mean this is like that um that doctor who episode where the +[1969.22 --> 1976.02] i robot thing yeah it's well like anything where you know someone decides yeah we're gonna drive you +[1976.02 --> 1981.06] into the sea yeah and there's nothing you can do about it i i would like to have a steering wheel and +[1981.06 --> 1990.26] pedals but no it will have a stop and go button and that is pretty much it very interesting self-driving +[1990.82 --> 1996.26] um you know he can't he can't be sad because the plastic doesn't go that far +[1996.26 --> 2002.74] so maybe he is sad maybe it's like even worse than we expect because he can't pull the size of his +[2002.74 --> 2008.66] mouth down anymore so he's showing the least amount of happiness as he can and google is forcing that +[2008.66 --> 2012.34] little car to be a minimum amount of happy would you miss driving +[2015.30 --> 2016.34] mmm gross +[2018.34 --> 2023.70] probably a little bit not really though because if i could do other stuff while i was in the car +[2023.70 --> 2028.58] be a lot more productive a lot of people won't be able to anyway just because of motion sickness +[2030.18 --> 2035.78] yeah i'd probably actually have a problem with it like i don't i i i used to get motion sick pretty +[2035.78 --> 2040.74] hardcore but i just like i think i built up a tolerance to it or something mine seems to flip +[2040.74 --> 2046.34] flop like one day it'll be a problem and i can't read my phone and then the other day it's totally fine +[2046.34 --> 2051.70] and like it seems to depend on what car i'm in and who's driving and like there's tons of different +[2051.70 --> 2056.90] variables so i have no idea it's funny how it's designed to make it seem non-threatening and help +[2056.90 --> 2061.54] people accept self-driving technology but i just think it looks kind of ridiculous it does and like +[2061.54 --> 2065.22] saying that that quote right there is like wow i'm now scared +[2068.90 --> 2073.70] apparently earlier ones will have extra controls so test drivers can take over if there's a problem +[2073.70 --> 2077.86] that sounds like the one that i would be interested in having yeah so it'll it will be an electric vehicle +[2077.86 --> 2084.02] it'll have a combination of lasers and radar to drive i mean i personally am really excited for +[2084.02 --> 2089.46] self-driving technology i just am not a hundred percent sure how i feel about google doing it at +[2089.46 --> 2097.14] this point with how broke google maps has been for me lately it's just every little thing and you know +[2097.14 --> 2101.14] what i'm gonna get feedback from people where they go it's great it's amazing it works for me perfectly +[2101.14 --> 2106.10] every time i'm like yeah that's fine but that doesn't change the fact that my experience hasn't been that +[2106.10 --> 2110.90] positive lately and all the feedback about how take me home doesn't work and everyone's like yeah +[2110.90 --> 2116.74] it does i demoed on the show last week you know what it straight up doesn't work for me sorry it +[2116.74 --> 2122.34] it doesn't work for it's not consistent enough and we're talking about my life and this and this is +[2122.34 --> 2127.06] like uh people publicly complain about both these things but there's far more people publicly +[2127.06 --> 2130.90] complaining about google maps and i've been having tons of troubles with it lately i mean you were +[2130.90 --> 2136.02] trying to find a tim hortons it shouldn't be hard to find a tim hortons in canada and there were +[2136.02 --> 2142.34] two that my mom was able to give us directions to that google maps was not giving him the nearest +[2142.34 --> 2146.66] locations for and was telling him to go what like 20 minutes away or something pretty far away and +[2146.66 --> 2151.86] there was one like down the street walking distance from where i'd parked so i'm sitting here going what +[2151.86 --> 2158.82] are you guys doing we're talking finding the nearest branch of a chain of restaurants it's super popular +[2158.82 --> 2164.90] in canada chain of restaurants is functionality that worked two years ago and this one was in a mall and +[2164.90 --> 2168.74] had been there for a very long time and it didn't know and there was another one down the road that +[2168.74 --> 2174.26] wasn't in a mall in case being in the mall was the problem this is technology that worked really well +[2174.26 --> 2179.46] back when i first started using google maps i'm having a lot of trouble with it lately yeah so i don't +[2179.46 --> 2185.38] know i'm still planning to have you switch to the iphone for a little while just to try it out try apple maps +[2185.38 --> 2190.66] because i was pretty impressed as long as it doesn't like drive me into a lake like it used to then it'll probably +[2190.66 --> 2200.02] be fine we can't forget about that speaking of apple apple has confirmed the acquisition of beats so +[2200.66 --> 2208.10] that whole video that leaked where dr dre was boasting about the world's first i think who who was it i +[2208.10 --> 2212.18] think it was someone else actually pointing at him and sort of boasting for him but the point was +[2212.18 --> 2222.26] the world's first rap billionaire um you know what good for him is all i really have to say it is it is +[2223.14 --> 2231.78] inexplicable to me that beats headphones were ever a thing um but it was reading the verge article here +[2231.78 --> 2237.30] uh this was posted originally on the forum by best efforts of like every tech enthusiast ever alex goes high +[2237.30 --> 2246.26] uh this this was i think it was 30 or something like that i can't i can't find the number but based +[2246.26 --> 2253.14] on some market research i think it was something like 30 percent of headphone buyers above a hundred +[2253.14 --> 2260.26] dollars wanted an endorsement on it and i'm kind of sitting here going like i weep +[2260.26 --> 2271.46] for all of this like i just don't know what to say anymore there was uh wait they wanted an endorsement +[2272.10 --> 2277.46] yeah they wanted to see an endorsement before they would be willing to spend big money on a pair of +[2277.46 --> 2285.22] headphones so from from a previous verge article allegedly a pair of 200 beats headphones was somewhere +[2285.22 --> 2290.18] in the neighborhood of 14 to produce i'm not sure if i quite believe that because that might be +[2290.18 --> 2296.10] a bomb cost but bomb costs do not represent the amount of product development that goes into +[2296.10 --> 2301.38] building something it doesn't account for r d it doesn't account for you know plastic molding it +[2301.38 --> 2308.42] doesn't account for any other prototyping processes it doesn't account for marketing where admittedly a +[2308.42 --> 2315.38] big part of the beats experience is the marketing and celebrity endorsements um probably the biggest that +[2315.38 --> 2321.30] is probably the biggest part of it but the point is that even the r d it just straight up doesn't +[2321.30 --> 2331.06] account for all of that um but they're also they're also buying other things while they're buying this +[2331.06 --> 2337.54] company like they're not just buying like beats yes there's more to it than the headphones i mean i i +[2337.54 --> 2342.82] think that the fact that the brands are so similar in that they're able to achieve better than +[2343.62 --> 2349.70] industry margins on their products i think that's a key part of the acquisition all although one other +[2349.70 --> 2356.02] thing that i'd like to see if it happens is apple's been willing to take less than beats margin on their +[2356.02 --> 2363.62] products for the sake of building a truly high quality premium product and i would like to see if apple's +[2363.62 --> 2371.46] willing to spend 44 dollars instead of 14 or even 80 dollars on a pair of beats headphones that they're +[2371.46 --> 2377.62] willing to sell for 200 or 250 i would like to see what they can bring to that because guys and don't +[2377.62 --> 2384.26] kid yourselves the companies that you love you know the sennheisers and akgs and audio technicas of +[2384.26 --> 2390.26] the world they're making pretty good margin on headphones too so it's not like beats is is doing +[2390.26 --> 2396.66] something it doesn't cost 1500 to make a pair of hd800s yeah to be a hundred percent clear if you think +[2396.66 --> 2402.42] it costs that much you're dumb yeah i'm sorry but you're actually stupid there's no way it doesn't +[2402.42 --> 2407.62] cost that much but again there's the r d so i would like to see if apple could tone down the whole +[2407.62 --> 2413.46] celebrity endorsement thing something they haven't done much with um with i much of anything since like +[2413.46 --> 2418.74] the bono days um so if they could tone that down a little bit spend a little bit more on the actual +[2418.74 --> 2423.06] materials and r d i'd be interested to see what they can come up with but they're acquiring more than that +[2423.06 --> 2428.74] they're also getting their beats's streaming service which is something that apple hasn't +[2428.74 --> 2433.78] been able to or willing to build for themselves and is becoming much more popular with services like +[2433.78 --> 2440.18] spotify taking the place of the more traditional it's funny to be calling dollar mp3 downloads from +[2440.18 --> 2446.66] itunes traditional it feels like not that long ago the ipod revolution was happening right yeah yeah +[2446.66 --> 2452.82] yeah yeah one thing that's been really frustrating lately is like uh one one group that i've been +[2452.82 --> 2458.98] listening to a lot is uh man what is it jukebox oh man now i'm not gonna be able to remember what +[2458.98 --> 2462.82] it's called but it's it's this group on youtube that makes music the only way to possibly buy their +[2462.82 --> 2469.70] stuff is through itunes like i don't want to install that terrible piece of crap right it's not +[2469.70 --> 2475.54] monster cat is it no yeah okay yeah i'm not sure i can't remember the name of it someone wants linus +[2475.54 --> 2481.86] tech audio headphones yeah i don't think so i'll be the first to i'll be the first to admit that i +[2481.86 --> 2490.18] don't uh i don't know enough about headphones to make headphones so there you have it it happened i i'm +[2490.18 --> 2494.10] super super interested to see what happens this is apple's biggest acquisition to date +[2494.98 --> 2502.66] and let's move on then shall we true crypt has been compromised or maybe hasn't been +[2502.66 --> 2508.50] compromised it's it's an interesting setup if you go to the link at the bottom of the true crypt article +[2508.50 --> 2517.94] in the doc yeah so posted by ion bassa on the forum here uh yeah that's that was a comment on the thread +[2517.94 --> 2525.06] oh sorry sorry um well i think i closed it now posted by astro zombie sorry about that now if you go to the +[2525.06 --> 2530.98] bottom link true crypt.ch this is a new movement that has come up since the whole true crypt thing +[2530.98 --> 2539.14] happened and this website not only tracks um what's going on with true crypt right now it's the like +[2539.14 --> 2543.54] safe thing which who knows if that's actually true or not but someone's saying that it's currently safe +[2543.54 --> 2549.38] at this point in time um but that the source code is just being is just sitting there so how long it'll be +[2549.38 --> 2555.70] safe for we don't know or if it is even actually safe right now we don't know um these guys are +[2555.70 --> 2562.26] planning on trying to pick up the project it's not a um what do they call it it's not like a branch +[2562.26 --> 2565.94] or anything like that they're taking part of the license agreement of true crypt which allows people +[2565.94 --> 2571.78] to kind of mess with their um source code and they're gonna be making their own so anyone who had +[2571.78 --> 2578.02] true crypt anyone who's using true crypt uh we're probably not screwed luckily this group has come +[2578.02 --> 2582.26] together and hopefully good things will come from this they have a blog coming soon they have a forum +[2582.26 --> 2588.18] coming soon and any information that you need about true crypt will probably be at true crypt.ch +[2590.26 --> 2596.98] okay so who the heck knows what's really going on right now a little bit of what was going on um it +[2596.98 --> 2602.42] seems like with the close of windows xp and most things being built into operating systems the true +[2602.42 --> 2610.10] crypt project has been kind of abandoned um true crypt wasn't it was it was kind of taken for granted +[2610.10 --> 2617.54] for a really long time the fact that it even existed um and it's been kept up to date by just this fairly +[2617.54 --> 2624.26] small group of people for a very long time and they're just kind of done that's about it they're +[2624.26 --> 2628.58] just yeah no it's been like 10 years or something i don't remember exactly how long it's been +[2628.58 --> 2633.38] but they're done with it now there's uh windows 8.1 is blocking it with their smart screen feature +[2633.94 --> 2640.58] it's it's where is it i think it's detecting it as malware yeah because it's it might be it might be +[2640.58 --> 2647.54] now the latest version but then maybe it isn't we don't know yeah i yeah i one thing is i wouldn't go +[2647.54 --> 2653.06] to true crypt's actual website to download it i would probably go to true crypt.ch as far as i've seen +[2653.06 --> 2660.66] a lot of people talking right now true crypt.ch seems to be legit um and the true crypt.org website +[2660.66 --> 2664.26] is a lot of people have been speculating it might have been broken into and things might have been +[2664.26 --> 2669.94] injected and there might be problems going on i don't know as like seriously as far as i can tell +[2669.94 --> 2675.06] there's new news coming out about this like every hour i check up on it and we've been on the after +[2675.06 --> 2679.46] we've been on the show for a little while now so maybe something even changed um but yeah if you're +[2679.46 --> 2683.54] very interested in true crypt i would check out true crypt.ch and keep paying attention there +[2683.54 --> 2688.58] hopefully they get their forms and their blog going soon so that people can have a hub to talk about +[2688.58 --> 2696.74] it on and that should be good and that should be good i hope so this is the conclusion i i really like +[2696.74 --> 2702.34] true crypt and i use it a lot so i really hope that someone properly picks up this project and keeps +[2702.34 --> 2708.42] it going and that all the like oh my god the nsa was running it and all this other crap stuff doesn't +[2708.42 --> 2715.46] end up being true i don't know it probably is uh whatever what i'm hiding is really not that +[2715.46 --> 2723.06] important so it's fine oh well i guess you can have my online banking information which you probably +[2723.06 --> 2730.74] have anyways jerks i know right it's like the most disappointing thing ever everything feels futile at +[2730.74 --> 2736.18] this point but it isn't it's still worth it to keep trying to uh to keep trying to protect your rights and +[2736.18 --> 2741.70] all that noise yeah speaking of protecting your rights this was originally posted on the forum by +[2741.70 --> 2753.30] gamer dad all right oh nintendo has a plan for for let's plays and i like if you guys remember that +[2753.30 --> 2760.02] whole big fiasco that was going on where oops uh oh there we go where nintendo was pulling the +[2760.02 --> 2766.34] monetization from anyone that was uploading their content so that's audio or video from their games +[2766.34 --> 2772.82] in fact we had it happen back when we were playing super mario world on the after party and our +[2772.82 --> 2777.86] monetization got pulled on that video so they just started pulling monetization back to themselves +[2777.86 --> 2782.10] because i don't know if you guys know how this works but there's a few different things that can happen +[2782.10 --> 2789.30] if you're infringing content so for example um my default okay so number one is if you have no infringing +[2789.30 --> 2795.70] content in your video then you dispute whatever claim and then google gives it back to you usually +[2795.70 --> 2802.18] three days to 14 days later from my experience if you legitimately have infringing content in your +[2802.18 --> 2808.50] video there's a couple of things that the owner can do so i my default channel upload setting is +[2808.50 --> 2814.26] monetization but then i uploaded my wedding video to my linus cat tips channel which had a song in it +[2814.26 --> 2821.38] didn't even think about it so the owner of that song went and they have two options they can either +[2821.38 --> 2826.98] pull down my video or they can monetize against my video so that every view instead of monetizing for +[2826.98 --> 2832.10] me monetizes for them and that's what they opted to do so the video is still up there and so that's +[2832.10 --> 2836.10] what nintendo opted to do is they just pulled the monetization from these videos to themselves +[2836.74 --> 2842.26] and i kind of look at that and i go like okay yes i i understand you have the right to do that +[2842.26 --> 2848.18] it's sort of it's just dumb it's not very it's not very black and white whether or not they can +[2848.82 --> 2854.90] things like they whether or not it's a derivative work or whether or not it's who it actually belongs +[2854.90 --> 2861.46] to is really not that clear right now legally but youtube's allowing it and nintendo's doing it and +[2861.46 --> 2867.30] even if they do have the right it's still kind of a dick move yeah um but anyway that whole thing +[2867.30 --> 2877.54] happened so now their brilliant um plan is to develop an affiliate program to share the revenue +[2877.54 --> 2884.58] that they've scooped between itself youtube and the content creator like how do you not understand +[2885.14 --> 2888.34] nintendo's biggest problem right now is that everyone's just ignoring them because it's hard to +[2888.34 --> 2894.58] remember that they exist at this point in time and then they're trying to make it really difficult +[2894.58 --> 2899.94] for people to bring them into the spotlight like what what do you what are you possibly thinking +[2899.94 --> 2908.34] like if any and the kinds of games that nintendo focuses on things like party games or platformers +[2908.34 --> 2912.50] it's not going to ruin the experience by watching someone play it like i'm not going to not want to +[2912.50 --> 2917.30] play super smash brothers because i had the entire experience from watching someone else play it +[2917.30 --> 2921.62] that's stupid like especially something like mario party what you're actually watching that for is +[2921.62 --> 2928.02] like the experience of those people playing so if it's a game that's heavily story driven and +[2928.02 --> 2935.38] something where i really think that gamers are going to watch a let's play instead of buying the game +[2935.38 --> 2941.70] i get it i understand the developers perspective here it's really not fair something like walking dead +[2941.70 --> 2947.38] or something like wolf among us where it's or brothers tale of two sons basically just a story it's a +[2947.38 --> 2953.22] movie in the form of a game an interactive game story movie whatever you get my point i get it but +[2953.22 --> 2958.58] something like nintendo's games really if anything i agree with the let's players and i agree with the +[2958.58 --> 2965.30] youtubers who are saying look we're driving exposure for your game you should be paying us to play your +[2965.30 --> 2972.42] game and broadcast it to our thousands of fans so it's just so backwards details will be announced in +[2972.42 --> 2979.38] the future but i'm really i want to like nintendo i really do yeah like yeah i was like a nintendo +[2979.38 --> 2985.46] kid growing up so many people where i was you just you're disappointing me nintendo is the revenue +[2985.46 --> 2991.14] really so much that it's going to affect your your millions of dollars deficit i don't think so i think +[2991.14 --> 2998.90] you have other things to focus on it's just it seems so blind like it seems like they just have no +[2998.90 --> 3005.78] idea what's going on so does this all right this this misanthrope and i have a bit of an off and on +[3005.78 --> 3010.66] sort of good or bad relationship we're a little up and down because sometimes he can be a bit of a +[3010.66 --> 3016.10] butthead and other times his buttheadedness uh really hits the nail on the head and i think this +[3016.10 --> 3024.18] post is actually pretty good uh it starts with and it's okay would love for news posts to be written +[3024.18 --> 3029.86] in a neutral voice i hope he changes his title to resident butthead resident butthead i hope so too +[3029.86 --> 3035.54] um just because you call them that i think that would be hilarious so the the first line in his +[3035.54 --> 3042.42] in his article and it is his write-up about it is a developer's defense of 30 frames per second aka +[3042.42 --> 3045.86] the resolution is just a number argument on crack +[3045.86 --> 3054.42] so 60f this is this is from who is this what dev is this from again i can't remember right now they +[3054.42 --> 3060.82] make 1866 i believe it is okay i don't remember the actual name of the depot so here it goes 60 fps +[3060.82 --> 3067.94] is really responsive and really cool i enjoy playing games at 60 fps but one thing that really changes is +[3067.94 --> 3074.74] the aesthetic of the game in 60 fps we're going for this filmic look so one thing that we knew immediately +[3074.74 --> 3080.98] was films run at 24 fps we're going to run at 30 because 24 fps does not feel good to play so there's +[3080.98 --> 3085.46] one concession in terms of making it aesthetically pleasing but it just has to feel good to play +[3085.46 --> 3092.82] and i'm kind of sitting here going okay so you both understand the issue and entirely missed the point +[3092.82 --> 3098.02] at the same time because you understood that 24 fps might be good for film and isn't good for games +[3098.02 --> 3107.30] but you didn't understand that 30 fps might look filmic in a video but it still isn't good for games +[3107.94 --> 3117.06] it's still not responsive we actually have a fastest possible episode about refresh rates and how 30 hertz +[3117.06 --> 3127.62] and thereby 30 fps is just plain not enough information for your eyes per second um coming out tonight that is +[3127.62 --> 3136.02] sort of along these lines but basically here's the issue 24 fps looks good in a movie because of the +[3136.02 --> 3141.30] way a camera works and i don't even always agree with that and i don't even always agree either fast +[3141.30 --> 3147.78] motion in 24 frames per second looks very visually disorienting to me you can see it chop i i don't i +[3147.78 --> 3153.30] think the last one that i saw was it's not defiance is it defiance i don't remember it's it's basically a +[3153.30 --> 3156.82] different version of the hunger games which is a different version of some other thing but whatever i don't +[3156.82 --> 3162.66] care um and they go past this fence yeah and there's a lot of tall poles on the fence and as +[3162.66 --> 3168.50] it swings past it's just like slice slice slice and you can see the frames chopping it's so looks +[3168.50 --> 3174.98] redonkulous so but the reason it works is because the way that a camera whether it's film or whether +[3174.98 --> 3181.78] it's a digital sensor captures light is by exposing it for a certain amount of time that's the shutter speed +[3181.78 --> 3188.98] is how long it's being exposed for so what happens is if something's moving during that exposure period +[3188.98 --> 3195.94] you get blur you get natural blur that's why a movie looks so much better with you while you watch it +[3195.94 --> 3201.30] than it does if you grab a screen grab of it and it looks blurry and poopy because your brain is what's +[3201.30 --> 3208.34] actually doing the work whereas in a game you don't have motion blur naturally motion blur is not a +[3208.34 --> 3216.02] natural side effect of of rendering a frame in motion you render frame by frame and motion blur that +[3216.02 --> 3223.62] gets added to games is terrible because the only way to add motion blur is to either try to anticipate +[3223.62 --> 3230.74] what's going to happen next or buffer two frames buffer an extra frame so that you can intentionally +[3230.74 --> 3236.50] blur the difference between them that's how motion blur works in games it's a cheesy effect and it will +[3236.50 --> 3242.58] never be correct it'll never be good and it'll always add leg maybe don't quote me on that maybe +[3242.58 --> 3247.94] they'll find some genius like by the time we're hooked up to like our oculus riffs and like our +[3247.94 --> 3252.26] brain probe things it may actually know what you're going to do next and put motion blur in for you but +[3252.26 --> 3257.78] by that time we'll have displays that run at 600 hertz and games that run at 600 frames per second anyway so +[3257.78 --> 3263.30] it doesn't really matter we don't need motion blur in games and 30 fps is not good enough and you can't +[3263.30 --> 3269.06] compensate with mode with motion blur to make it look more cinematic do it in your cut scene don't +[3269.06 --> 3276.10] do it in the game and as gamers we have to all demand better we have to ask for better and i know the +[3276.10 --> 3281.94] hardware for the xbox one and the playstation 4 just straight up isn't good enough to run with modern +[3281.94 --> 3294.02] lighting effects and all this other stuff so i guess pc i can't i can't find where this is but um total +[3294.02 --> 3300.10] here 30 fps is not a divine choice it's not a design choice design choice sorry um it is a last resort +[3300.10 --> 3304.66] when dealing with inferior hardware and he has a whole bunch of other quotes too and my favorite thing in +[3304.66 --> 3311.46] this whole article actually was the very end where is it so it's actually a kataku article +[3311.46 --> 3315.86] originally i'll just go ahead and yeah it's it's bullet pointed actually if you scroll down but what +[3315.86 --> 3320.74] he says is a higher frame rate does not significantly affect sales of a game a higher frame rate does not +[3320.74 --> 3326.02] significantly affect the reviews of a game right there bullet pointed and like bolded on certain +[3326.02 --> 3332.10] things and like that's a serious part of the article and total biscuit just tore them apart +[3332.10 --> 3336.98] on like this exact thing i can't find the exact tweets that he has about it but it's somewhere +[3336.98 --> 3344.50] else but just like yeah actually it does sorry but you're totally wrong and if it doesn't it should +[3344.50 --> 3349.54] and but like one of the most outspoken people in terms of game reviews total biscuit which is awesome +[3350.34 --> 3356.58] um constantly rips on games that are frame rate capped and he's one of the biggest game reviewers there are +[3356.58 --> 3367.30] are you that blind doesn't affect game reviews you're wrong 100 like just no oh if you were them +[3367.30 --> 3373.22] what would you do what could you say you can't say the xbox one and the playstation 4 are crappy +[3374.82 --> 3382.26] and and i would rather they code their game with better effects that we can enjoy on our pcs +[3382.26 --> 3387.46] and let the console guys run at 30 frames per second rather than just dumbing down the way that +[3387.46 --> 3394.90] the game runs outright so i still i still would rather they make 30 fps games as long as i don't +[3394.90 --> 3400.02] have to play them so if you're them what can you say then you have no choice but to do exactly what +[3400.02 --> 3406.26] they're doing no they just built it terribly just have it so that it looks better on pc and is able to +[3406.26 --> 3410.90] run faster and have a crippled down version of our console if they do that then it looks like they're +[3410.90 --> 3415.38] intentionally crippling the console version you have to i mean i think okay really there is a +[3415.38 --> 3420.90] solution here and i'm just kind of being a jerk right now give a give them a graphic slider on the +[3420.90 --> 3433.62] console uh or not yeah or a 30 60 toggle why not i could see that yeah why don't see a lot of people +[3433.62 --> 3439.54] taking advantage of that if the game can run on ps3 and ps4 then it can sure as hell run at 60 fps on ps4 +[3439.54 --> 3445.70] and like just yeah 36 uh 30 60 toggle that just does everything for you yeah why not just like +[3445.70 --> 3450.02] turns down your resolution a whole bunch turns down any effects a whole bunch but gives you a +[3450.02 --> 3453.70] smoother gameplay experience some people will prefer that and that's how you get like everybody on your +[3453.70 --> 3458.18] side yep and because they're gonna be like yeah it's a beautiful game unless you don't want it to +[3458.18 --> 3465.14] be and then it runs at 60 fps all right so something that actually we should probably do our sponsors +[3465.14 --> 3476.26] for the show today number one is modus and where is my lower third for that uh that isn't it but we +[3476.26 --> 3483.62] can go ahead and add it to that in the meantime here it's in the folder yes add media file and +[3484.34 --> 3490.82] live stream assets and integration lower thirds this is really where is it i'll show you how to do it +[3490.82 --> 3497.78] faster later is there a faster way to do this but it's cool we'll do it next time uh okay you know +[3497.78 --> 3506.34] what i don't know what to do right now how about you do your thing and i'll try to get it okay so in +[3506.34 --> 3512.66] the meantime i'm gonna throw the g but actually it'll be kind of nice to talk about the g750 jz without you +[3512.66 --> 3520.34] distracting me for a change so guys the asus g750 jz is asus's a okay it's not light +[3520.82 --> 3527.94] okay it's not particularly small but what it is is it is a powerful desktop replacement grade gaming +[3527.94 --> 3533.62] notebook that we actually are starting to like more and more as time goes on uh the video we did +[3533.62 --> 3543.06] yesterday where we pitted gtx 880m versus dual 860ms in sli both with basically the same cpu both with the +[3543.06 --> 3550.26] same 4g frame buffer was uh those tests were very revealing and we found that if you are willing to accept +[3550.26 --> 3556.02] the thicker notebook that comes along with being able with needing to be able to cool a really high +[3556.02 --> 3561.22] performance single gpu because you've got that heat density to contend with you're able to get a +[3561.22 --> 3567.78] more consistently high performance gaming experience than if you were to rely on something like sli which +[3567.78 --> 3573.94] is something that i've always really advocated for a single high-end gpu versus two lower-end ones the +[3573.94 --> 3579.62] drawback of course is that it does come in heavier and it does come in larger but that way is that why this is +[3579.62 --> 3584.98] the jay-z laptop and then the maybe the other one's two chains because he has two graphics cards boom +[3584.98 --> 3589.78] stepped in anyways i'm gonna keep working oh i'm so tired of you um and then there are other advantages +[3589.78 --> 3594.90] with the thicker form factor as well we found that this notebook ran about 15 degrees cooler under load +[3594.90 --> 3601.62] on the gpu which is significant and ran significantly quieter in addition to being cooler with the fan noise +[3601.62 --> 3607.78] being more a more desirable low hum versus a high-pitched whine so there you go guys the g750 jz is +[3607.78 --> 3612.82] powerful enough for video editing and content creation has a desktop grade and and asus doesn't +[3612.82 --> 3617.78] call it that but i'm just gonna call it that because it truly is desktop grade graphics card in it and +[3618.98 --> 3620.26] all right what else we got here +[3622.74 --> 3631.54] oh that is faster geeksteaks 2014 modus is giving away a butt ton like one metric butt ton of really cool +[3631.54 --> 3637.62] stuff including an oculus rift uh a gaming notebook they're giving away they give away a gaming mouse +[3637.62 --> 3644.42] already they're giving away a litro camera they're giving away all kinds of freaking awesome stuff and +[3644.42 --> 3649.70] all you have to do is head over to their facebook page so that's facebook.com modus and you will be +[3649.70 --> 3654.98] entered for a chance to win it's open to u.s and canadian residents and if you're wondering who the heck modus +[3654.98 --> 3660.66] is they are an it staffing company which is something that before they reached out to us about +[3660.66 --> 3666.42] participating in geeksteaks to celebrate geek pride day i was like what's that like oh well it's actually +[3666.42 --> 3673.94] pretty simple for free people can submit their resumes to us and then we will work with them and with +[3673.94 --> 3679.38] companies large and small everything from startups to fortune 500 companies to try to place people and +[3679.38 --> 3684.66] the way they make their money is they have the companies that hire their candidates pay them so +[3684.66 --> 3691.70] ultimately there is no drawback to an it professional reaching out to modus and seeing what's out there +[3691.70 --> 3695.54] which is great because if you don't have a job it's not a point in time that you want to be spending +[3695.54 --> 3700.82] money to try and get a job yeah exactly right i'm gonna get the paid linkedin because +[3701.62 --> 3706.74] that one will be better and it is a lot better yeah but still linkedin is really good at like +[3707.30 --> 3712.58] making you pay for it to be useful at all bugging you i know i never had a linkedin account got one +[3712.58 --> 3718.34] recently i'm just like wow i don't want any more emails from you you get a lot of yeah it's just +[3718.34 --> 3727.30] like leave me alone i don't care i just wanted to update my profile because it seems smarter than like +[3727.30 --> 3733.46] writing a resume at this point in time i'm moving into the 21st century it's like well um would you like +[3733.46 --> 3738.02] a free trial of premium so that people looked at your page this guy sent you a message check your +[3738.02 --> 3743.46] trigger thing please you just got endorsed for these skills yeah it's like go away endorse people +[3743.46 --> 3747.94] please i'm not actually looking for a job right now this is a core part of our system i don't care +[3747.94 --> 3754.34] about you linkedin there should be like a please go away button like please i'll let you know when i'm +[3754.34 --> 3759.70] like interested in this again please there should be a auto endorse all of my friends just do it +[3759.70 --> 3765.94] linkedin should totally have a paid option so that i can monitor the activity of my employees +[3766.90 --> 3772.42] not like read their messages but when my employees start like like i should be able to see their +[3772.42 --> 3778.74] activity level on linkedin so if i see unusual spikes like blah blah updated the profile sent a +[3778.74 --> 3786.98] bunch of messages they'll be like something's coming i feel like that would be taken advantage +[3786.98 --> 3791.86] of immediately like people would use it immediately and it would be terrible and torn apart very quickly +[3793.78 --> 3798.26] i guarantee you so many like owners would take advantage of it hold on a second though because +[3798.26 --> 3805.54] there's a lot of linkedin stuff that is public like activity on it so if all yeah maybe not pms but +[3805.54 --> 3812.10] if i could just get a report of activity i bet you this could be done with a third party probably +[3812.10 --> 3816.58] could because it's the kind of thing that i could comb through and find myself but if i just had it +[3816.58 --> 3821.06] automatically generated for me that's very interesting so business idea for someone give us 10 +[3821.06 --> 3827.30] like normal yeah but make this and then sell your bot to people and you can just have the bot crawl +[3827.30 --> 3832.18] everything all the time so people can get instant reports when they sign up yes and that's what people +[3832.18 --> 3835.14] will want because they'll want to be able to see results immediately so you just have it +[3835.14 --> 3839.86] permanently crawling all of linkedin and then wow that's like the evilest thing ever because you +[3839.86 --> 3846.18] know what's funny is i i don't remember when it was but i think um edsel created a linkedin profile +[3846.18 --> 3852.18] like right around the time we formed linus media group or updated it or something or like it it creeped +[3852.18 --> 3860.42] me out that everyone who works here has updated linkedin profiles because i didn't have one until i +[3860.42 --> 3867.46] started thinking about leaving ncix and so like i i project right like i project my own mindset +[3867.46 --> 3872.50] where i'm completely not interested in any kind of social network platform even a useful one like +[3872.50 --> 3877.86] linkedin yeah unless i have an immediate need i didn't have one until a couple months ago and i knew +[3877.86 --> 3882.18] i was going to get that email from you when i sent you an invite on it but the only reason why i got one +[3882.18 --> 3888.34] was because i wanted somewhere to put my coursera course whatever like certificate things right and +[3888.34 --> 3892.26] that's the only place you can display them there's nothing wrong with having updated credentials on +[3892.26 --> 3897.46] linkedin it's good yeah yeah and like you know i want people who work here to build their portfolios +[3897.46 --> 3900.90] and like build their careers and stuff like that like i'm it's just one of those things where i just +[3900.90 --> 3905.94] kind of like are you are you leaving i just lay i lay in bed at night are they all going to be +[3905.94 --> 3912.50] where are they going please don't leave me why is this happening uh speaking of why is this happening +[3912.50 --> 3919.46] you know my take on the steam controller was pretty mixed at the beginning i was like really they're +[3919.46 --> 3925.70] doing this touch pads okay let's see how this goes and then my take on it when i tried it back at ces +[3925.70 --> 3932.58] even though it was quite an early prototype was okay well let's see where they go from here valve +[3932.58 --> 3938.74] has basically delayed it they're saying realistically we're looking at a release window in 2015 and that's +[3938.74 --> 3942.98] pretty much all that they've said this was posted by raffi on the forum wow two this week and i don't +[3942.98 --> 3948.66] think i've ever seen you before and i like you because you have an easy to pronounce name but basically +[3948.66 --> 3953.70] my take on this i don't because he makes me feel like my forum's broken with his stupid avatar picture +[3953.70 --> 3966.18] oh yeah all right my take on this is what probably happened was the original concept of touch pads is +[3966.18 --> 3971.86] stupid and then you saw what was happening with the prototypes over time how they got closer and +[3971.86 --> 3979.70] closer and closer to a traditional controller upon which time i think people basically went oh yeah that's +[3979.70 --> 3984.74] pretty cool but the issue is that it's not really different so i think valve is going through a bit +[3984.74 --> 3988.50] of an identity crisis right now with the steam controller where they're going okay we wanted +[3988.50 --> 3994.42] to do something like really innovative that changed the way people use controllers and then we ended up +[3994.42 --> 4000.90] with something that's pretty samey and we're not getting into this because we just wanted to be a +[4000.90 --> 4006.90] like controller manufacturer yeah valve doesn't do stuff like that they're not getting into steam os because +[4006.90 --> 4012.50] they want to make steam machines they want to build an ecosystem valve is so much smarter than wanting +[4012.50 --> 4019.54] to make gaming peripherals so i think what's happened is they just don't know what it is anymore and if +[4020.18 --> 4024.74] into i think they're just saying 2015 but it's like valve time so i think i think they're basically +[4024.74 --> 4031.30] going okay if we can when they're done rejuvenate this project and make it truly different then we'll then +[4031.30 --> 4036.50] you know let's do that and if we can't i think we might see steam controller just quietly go away +[4037.38 --> 4042.82] which i'll be 100 okay with because up till now i i don't think there's a lot of room to really +[4042.82 --> 4049.78] improve on the controller you see third party i mean everyone and their dog has had the opportunity +[4049.78 --> 4057.62] to improve the xbox 360 controller and we see like exoskeletons that go on it we've seen like you know +[4058.50 --> 4063.78] rockers so that you just shift your hand to press certain buttons we've seen all kinds of stuff we've +[4063.78 --> 4070.26] seen modded ones that have the the switches replaced and and the the analog sticks replaced +[4070.26 --> 4074.18] or joysticks i think they call them now whatever i don't care if they're not if they're not analog +[4074.18 --> 4081.62] anymore um and no one's really been able to do it and and now 360 controllers freaking awesome and +[4081.62 --> 4087.62] now we're down to the point where 3d printers are becoming more affordable so even some individual could +[4087.62 --> 4092.74] create a better controller if they wanted to i just don't think there's any room left to innovate +[4092.74 --> 4097.38] and maybe i'm totally wrong but i think we're gonna see completely different ways of interacting with +[4097.38 --> 4103.14] our games like augmented reality and vr before we see a better controller i think the controller +[4103.14 --> 4110.58] is kind of an amusing amusing ancient way of controlling games by the time my son is my age +[4110.58 --> 4118.34] like like like the old joystick two button style that's just gone uh well it makes it makes an +[4118.34 --> 4127.38] interesting um point because nintendo and we also have a patent for like what what was it uh modular ds +[4127.38 --> 4132.90] did you see that patent no i didn't it was it was a ds but you could slide out all of the parts that +[4132.90 --> 4138.50] interact with the ds and replace them so people would essentially be able to like make their own d-pad +[4138.50 --> 4143.94] oh no i did see that the nintendo patent right yeah yeah i remember that sorry so that's it's +[4143.94 --> 4150.18] interesting because controllers are getting like there's there's so many gamers now i think that's +[4150.18 --> 4155.86] part of the thing is there's so many gamers across such a huge age gap from everywhere around the world +[4155.86 --> 4160.74] that it's hard to make something for every single person in existence right so i think it's getting to +[4160.74 --> 4164.98] the point where it's just like yeah make your own or buy these modular things and swap them out +[4164.98 --> 4174.98] all right so um i barnacles was defending his use of bing on twitter this week so i i actually i'm +[4174.98 --> 4179.62] using internet explorer right now because i haven't bothered to sign into all my crap in a real browser +[4179.62 --> 4187.54] so um it's true bing is the default so i searched for leap motion v2 all right so i get like a bunch of +[4188.26 --> 4194.82] rubbish sponsored stuff that has almost the whole page worth nothing to do with anything and +[4194.82 --> 4199.46] arguably my font size is a little bit large like that's probably more like a normal font size but +[4199.46 --> 4207.54] that is four sponsored results that aren't even related to the leap motion and then the first legitimate +[4207.54 --> 4219.06] hit is from the developer blog but isn't the leap motion v2 blog post and finally it comes up with this +[4219.06 --> 4228.34] google boom top one exactly what i'm looking for and i just i this just felt related to +[4232.10 --> 4236.98] there we go so this is really cool this just felt kind of related to the new ways that we're going to +[4236.98 --> 4243.06] interact with our devices and what's amazing about this is this is using the original leap motion hardware +[4243.06 --> 4248.74] they actually haven't changed the hardware this is just a new much lower latency much more accurate +[4248.74 --> 4258.42] software isn't that cool it's so fast look at that responsiveness it's crazy fast love it so you +[4258.42 --> 4264.02] know what's funny is they offered to send us a review sample like a year ago no no i contacted them a +[4264.02 --> 4268.58] year ago and then like months and months ago they were like yeah we'll send you a review sample and i was +[4268.58 --> 4273.78] like well you know a lot of the hype has died down um do you have anything new coming that maybe we'll wait +[4273.78 --> 4278.26] for instead they're like yeah we have a software update coming i'm assuming this is it and so i saw +[4278.26 --> 4283.30] this i reached out to them they're like yeah we're at a review samples again i'm just like guys like +[4283.30 --> 4290.34] seriously we can help you we just need you to help yourself like i just don't even know what to say at +[4290.34 --> 4299.70] that point oh they're like yeah we can offer you a small discount and i'm just like really so you have a +[4299.70 --> 4304.50] review sample for me when you don't have anything interesting and then you i'm like yeah i want to +[4304.50 --> 4310.34] do you a favor i want to time this to like talk about something new and exciting and it's like oh +[4310.34 --> 4315.46] yeah sorry next time that they offer you one just take it and then just wait until the next interesting +[4315.46 --> 4321.14] thing comes out yeah just be like you probably would have just waited if we did something for you +[4321.14 --> 4325.46] anyways so don't worry about it we'll get this video to you in about a couple months when you would +[4325.46 --> 4330.66] have contacted us all right so this is two things number one is dog fighting is delayed +[4332.82 --> 4338.74] yeah star citizen you're disappointing us but there's still time for you to knock our socks off +[4338.74 --> 4343.62] it's disappointing but i'm happy they didn't release it completely broken yeah i get that i totally get +[4343.62 --> 4349.54] it i would rather have delays basically chris roberts wrote like this huge long thing it was like yeah look +[4349.54 --> 4357.06] we want this out there as much as you do and i believe him but there's two of what we would +[4357.06 --> 4363.78] classify as i think they call them blocker bugs like just utterly game-breaking bugs that we need to +[4363.78 --> 4367.46] resolve there's some other critical stuff that we really really want to fix and then there's some other +[4367.46 --> 4373.54] stuff that we want to fix but until we can get those really high priority fixes in there it's not coming +[4373.54 --> 4378.74] sorry we missed the date it's coming really soon the fact that they waited until the last possible minute to +[4378.74 --> 4384.18] tell us that it wasn't going to hit the date to me is you can interpret this one of two ways and i lean +[4384.18 --> 4389.14] towards the second one so you can kind of go dick move guys you're telling us at the last minute we +[4389.14 --> 4394.50] were all excited or number two could be it's probably because they might have thought they could still make +[4394.50 --> 4400.50] it yeah yeah so maybe it's that close so i really hope it comes soon really excited guys don't forget to +[4400.50 --> 4406.34] join the linus tech tips conglomerate star citizen organization we're falling behind because +[4406.34 --> 4412.42] it's past us what the heck happened yeah some random organization imperium doesn't last time you +[4412.42 --> 4417.14] talked to them that was like two days ago but no one knew who these guys were well they know who they +[4417.14 --> 4422.02] are they won the they won like a contest a while back and all this kind of stuff yeah really small +[4422.02 --> 4427.46] and then out of nowhere they got like five thousand something members in no time at all yeah explore +[4427.46 --> 4433.78] right now so no you guys need to rally with us seven hundred and twenty six yeah uh let's see they +[4433.78 --> 4439.38] have time stamps for stuff which is really interesting so yeah they're still updating we +[4439.38 --> 4447.78] doubled in size again 300 new members that's on april 16th on may 2nd they got 732 members in total +[4447.78 --> 4457.14] on may 25th they got 1049 members in total may 25th to may 28th they got 4 000 plus members in +[4457.14 --> 4464.02] total what even happened where did all these people come from so good for them good for them but +[4465.62 --> 4471.14] minus tech tips conglomerate still gonna be i mean really all of this is just jockeying for position +[4471.14 --> 4475.94] that is ultimately going to be meaningless once the race actually starts yeah it's kind of like yeah you +[4475.94 --> 4481.06] look at any i just want to know what happened nascar race formula race does being in front at the +[4481.06 --> 4486.90] beginning of the race mean that you win no there's a whole lot more yeah and having a +[4486.90 --> 4490.82] huge amount of members isn't necessarily gonna make you win either that's true quality members +[4490.82 --> 4495.22] i'm not worried about that the main thing is i'm just confused i don't know what the heck happened +[4495.22 --> 4499.70] reddit getting really big in passing us that's kind of that's not surprising test squadron getting +[4499.70 --> 4505.62] really big that's fine uh maybe they'll do just as well in in star season as they did in eve and just +[4505.62 --> 4511.22] disappear so that's also possible all right so nvidia shifts away from smartphones this is posted by +[4511.22 --> 4516.74] qwerty warrior basically jensen came out and said okay well we're shifting away from smartphones to +[4516.74 --> 4522.10] other more profitable markets nvidia chipsets save for tegr 3 have had limited success in the world of +[4522.10 --> 4528.34] smartphones tegr 4 barely made it into a few devices and tegr 4i hasn't had much luck as far as design +[4528.34 --> 4535.70] wins go either but nvidia is definitely interested in other markets such as gaming devices like shield for +[4535.70 --> 4542.98] example which is fantastic and doesn't get enough credit um cars for example i'd love to see tiger +[4542.98 --> 4547.70] hardware and something like a tv a couple of generations from now when that is going to be +[4547.70 --> 4552.74] what a console looks like a grid streaming device that just runs in your tv and you don't need to +[4552.74 --> 4558.90] worry about an extra box bring it on yeah yeah excited for that kind of stuff i mean as internet +[4558.90 --> 4564.50] connections get better i mean the the connection we have here and the connection you have at home i think +[4564.50 --> 4570.82] is like you get what like five millisecond pings in games and people are like yeah he's like playing +[4570.82 --> 4575.94] at valve yeah or whatever like like how do you have how do you have like land level ping i'm like oh +[4575.94 --> 4581.94] i'm just chilling at valve hq guys it is coming low enough latency is coming so i'm really really excited +[4581.94 --> 4588.34] about where we're heading there and i i really don't see this as something that'll have a major impact +[4588.34 --> 4593.70] on nvidia's tegra development cycle it's just i think it's just them kind of basically going yeah that +[4593.70 --> 4598.26] whole thing is stupid so we give up and with the way margins are being squeezed on phones the only +[4598.26 --> 4603.38] way to make a profit on a phone is to be very vertically integrated like someone like apple where +[4603.38 --> 4608.50] you're designing your own processor and your own phone and your own software you're profiting on +[4608.50 --> 4613.46] people buying apps samsung tried to do it and i think ultimately we're seeing the beginning of the +[4613.46 --> 4618.90] end of the samsung android empire because they weren't able to turn their their own app store into +[4618.90 --> 4625.22] anything functional or useful and uh beyond that what's their value i mean it's like they're they're +[4625.22 --> 4630.18] already having a really hard time convincing people that a galaxy s whatever is significantly +[4630.18 --> 4635.46] different from a nexus 5 which is much cheaper and it's really just not yeah +[4637.78 --> 4641.78] i don't know man what else we got for today we're pretty much done we're gonna finish the show early +[4641.78 --> 4645.46] i guess that's what happens when we start on time huge amount of topics though i think it's just a lot of +[4645.46 --> 4650.82] them went fast yeah uh there's stuff still in the unformatted which is really let's just do some +[4650.82 --> 4657.22] straight up q a guys hit us uh atlinus tech on twitter hit us with some q a and we'll well while +[4657.22 --> 4663.70] they're hitting us up um have you looked at the open open source laptop modular laptop yeah it looks +[4663.70 --> 4669.86] like the stupidest thing ever right now oh yeah oh yeah apple devices locked and held as ransom +[4669.86 --> 4674.98] this is kind of brutal so there was a thing going around a while ago where your files were getting +[4674.98 --> 4679.70] encrypted and then you had to send a ransom and they would unencrypt it well this one this one's +[4681.38 --> 4687.62] so hack into the device lock it and then so they actually are using the find my iphone feature to +[4687.62 --> 4693.30] remotely lock your device and then they are telling you that you can't have it back so just we'll have a +[4693.30 --> 4698.34] message on the screen like that locked message that says if you want it back you have to pay 100 bucks or +[4698.34 --> 4705.38] euros or whatever else to some hotmail address absolutely brutal guys um i guess that's all i +[4705.38 --> 4710.02] really have to say about that that sucks i think it's going to be way too trackable though yeah i +[4710.02 --> 4714.10] don't see this being a problem for much longer payments are flowing like they're gonna find this +[4714.10 --> 4721.30] guy yeah oh also this is really cool if you guys haven't seen it already the solar roadways thing that's +[4721.30 --> 4727.54] going on is pretty amazing uh you should check out the indiegogo projects solar roadways they got super +[4727.54 --> 4734.18] duper funded yeah they got super funded so they should 21 days left i love it this video is actually +[4736.26 --> 4740.34] oh i don't know if this is even the one that i just the tractor one i think the tractor one's a +[4740.34 --> 4746.10] different video yeah where's the like fan made one fan solar freaking roadways there it is yeah i ignore +[4746.10 --> 4752.18] the actual one this one's amazing uh let me just put on some volume for you there solar freaking +[4752.18 --> 4759.22] roadways there you go they want from me well they're solar freaking roadway okay so actually this +[4759.22 --> 4763.14] time what is it okay so it's like seven minutes long but it's actually a pretty good watch you guys +[4763.14 --> 4767.94] should definitely check it out but the main benefits are that you can rear they have leds built into +[4767.94 --> 4773.06] them so you can rearrange the markings on them however you want really cool they're heated which means that +[4773.06 --> 4779.14] clearing snow is no longer an issue as well as the flooding that sometimes occurs when snow melts +[4779.14 --> 4785.30] they're solar so you're utilizing all that area to collect solar energy which is of course the cleanest +[4785.30 --> 4790.74] energy that we can have you don't have to you don't have to disrupt you know tidal pools you don't have +[4790.74 --> 4796.18] to disrupt rivers and waterfalls nope nope just sun hits the earth we'll basically become plants +[4797.70 --> 4802.82] leverage the sun it's all very good stuff um there's a bunch of other really great stuff +[4802.82 --> 4807.14] about it but it's one of my favorite things is you said you can change the leds on it so +[4807.14 --> 4812.90] say if two people park in handicapped parking stalls and then they're full they can just create another +[4812.90 --> 4817.78] one right it can detect that there's actually a video of this it can detect that they're full +[4817.78 --> 4822.02] and it can just grab a near parking spot and just be like bloop now this one is handicapped because it +[4822.02 --> 4826.42] can just show on the ground it can warn people about obstructions on the road so they've got sent +[4826.42 --> 4831.06] pressure sensors in them so if something falls and like demolishes a road it'll be like whoa dog slow +[4831.06 --> 4836.26] down and like text on the road or if there's a deer like it'll know it'll feel the four hoof prints +[4836.26 --> 4842.66] and it'll be like yo dog there's a deer up ahead slow down slow down yourself um so it's it's incredibly +[4842.66 --> 4847.78] exciting probably have these communicating with uh those google cars at some point in time so it can +[4847.78 --> 4851.78] automatically figure all this stuff out and go around things would love for this to be the future +[4851.78 --> 4858.66] really really super easy really really low cost power charging stations for electric cars love it there's a +[4858.66 --> 4863.30] bunch of stuff you had a twitter blitz that happened yeah but there's uh one more thing i wanted to hit +[4863.30 --> 4872.02] before the twitter blitz so um tech report seagate buys sandforce from lsi for 450 million so this has +[4872.02 --> 4879.70] been complicated so lsi bought sandforce and then like what was it avago or whatever bought lsi and then +[4879.70 --> 4890.90] now avago is well by proxy i guess selling sandforce from lsi to seagate this is an interesting move to me +[4893.14 --> 4900.98] yeah where it feels like because sandforce it's it's kind of like indelinks okay ssd controller makers +[4900.98 --> 4907.86] come and go yeah and popularity rises and falls indelinks went from being a hot item with the barefoot +[4907.86 --> 4914.50] controller to being acquired by ocz to releasing barefoot 2 which i think ocz was hoping well not +[4914.50 --> 4921.06] i think lcz was hoping to leverage by selling the controllers and the technology to other ssd makers +[4921.06 --> 4926.18] but then their new controller wasn't good enough and they just completely fell off the face of the earth +[4926.18 --> 4931.46] and i shouldn't say not good enough the the latest indelinks stuff and not necessarily the controller +[4931.46 --> 4937.30] hardware but the software the technology is not actually terrible it just isn't groundbreaking enough in +[4937.30 --> 4942.02] a market that is full of a bunch of stuff that performs pretty much the same so i'm looking at +[4942.02 --> 4946.02] this going just because sandforce is a big deal yesterday and a big deal today doesn't mean that +[4946.02 --> 4952.90] it matters at all tomorrow and sf 3700 series has been delayed multiple times now i mean we were first +[4952.90 --> 4962.50] shown it like what computex last year so yeah and it doesn't exist yet um i just wonder if ella if sandforce is +[4962.50 --> 4967.62] being shuffled around because they just got nothing yeah i wouldn't be surprised i'm kind of surprised +[4967.62 --> 4973.86] seagate bought them yeah it's just kind of weird well seagate's gotten into ssds i mean they've got +[4973.86 --> 4979.06] their own branded ssds now yeah but are they really pushing them maybe this is their whole goal is now +[4979.06 --> 4984.66] they'll maybe push them really hard the thing about an ssd is the controller actually isn't a huge part of +[4984.66 --> 4990.02] the the bomb cost or or really a huge selling point to me at this point i mean samsung i don't understand why +[4990.02 --> 4995.86] they bought it samsung went hero mode when they went okay like because flash isn't a big differentiating +[4995.86 --> 4999.86] factor because there's only a few makers of flash and no one else is going to get into that business +[4999.86 --> 5005.22] without a massive investment that makes no sense so flash doesn't differentiate controllers don't make +[5005.22 --> 5010.50] much of a difference these days it's coming down to features like hardware encryption and all that stuff +[5010.50 --> 5016.26] that's on evo data loss protection and it's coming down to software stuff like what samsung did with evo +[5016.26 --> 5020.66] where they basically went yeah we know our ssd is a commodity so we're going to build this cool +[5020.66 --> 5025.22] software that lets you use your ram to cash it yeah and we're going to have this like great cloning +[5025.22 --> 5030.10] software that allows you to clone onto a smaller drive because that's what a lot of people will be +[5030.10 --> 5035.70] doing and then have it overflow elsewhere so i don't really see the point of spending 450 million when +[5035.70 --> 5041.22] they could have spent 450 million trying to come up with some ideas for how to deliver value adds on the +[5041.22 --> 5048.66] ssd that they already have unless they and like i just and and yeah whatever i mean it wouldn't be +[5048.66 --> 5052.26] the first time i didn't understand something and it turns out to be a great idea yeah i don't really +[5052.26 --> 5056.42] get this one unless there's something new in the pipeline or unless they're planning something weird +[5056.42 --> 5061.14] i'm not really sure so there you go all right twitter blitz time +[5061.14 --> 5071.46] um if it decides to allow us yeah if it ever actually loads there we go all right having a +[5071.46 --> 5082.58] garage sale today i'm hungry i have food okay uh yeah sure why not i think i have a 780 so stay tuned for +[5082.58 --> 5088.90] that what what what what why are you selling 780 what one what what what what what hold on 780 just +[5088.90 --> 5097.22] calm down uh direct c u2 okay that's fine why what 780 are you upset about i just want to make sure +[5097.22 --> 5102.18] you're not taking like one of my benching ones oh no or just one of the reference ones in general +[5102.18 --> 5110.10] okay why are you all green uh a little green aren't we that means oh like you oh i don't know the window +[5110.10 --> 5115.06] the window's open and the sunlight is bright and there's grass outside yeah that's the best guess +[5115.06 --> 5122.26] i have yeah 4.1 gigahertz new haswell okay um you know what's funny is we actually made it all the +[5122.26 --> 5126.58] way through the show without talking about titan z being available now but like and without talking +[5126.58 --> 5132.18] about any of the new haswell stuff which is kind of funny titan z is in my mind the least relevant +[5132.18 --> 5137.46] thing to the viewers of our show ever unless you're a kuda developer it's totally irrelevant we don't +[5137.46 --> 5143.38] recommend it unless you're a good developer titan z just straight up makes no sense for gamers so +[5143.38 --> 5152.10] the doc yeah ouch uh do you have a tutorial on how to build a pc for first timers uh yes many in +[5152.10 --> 5160.18] fact we have the hands down best tutorials on youtube for how to build a pc and more than one too +[5160.18 --> 5164.58] so if you're like oh this part maybe wasn't super clear you can just watch another one and we have +[5164.58 --> 5169.22] nice little time stamps for each individual part and you can jump around in the video and find +[5169.22 --> 5173.38] exactly what you're having trouble installing i've actually heard i have a buddy that it's oh i clicked +[5173.38 --> 5180.34] new atv gross not that one that's not a go away go away go back eli the computer guy even okay i don't +[5180.34 --> 5188.98] even know what you're doing okay if you search for seriously there uh this one's really good the 1500 +[5188.98 --> 5195.94] gaming one is really pc build guide why don't we go with that yeah it's all in how you optimize your +[5195.94 --> 5202.50] keywords because now it's like all us so this one's really good the one with a million views um which +[5202.50 --> 5208.42] is one's pretty good uh this one's really good if you're doing like a basic machine the kaveri build +[5208.42 --> 5214.18] guide uh we have a water cooled one here's if you're building a small form factor so we cover a lot of +[5214.18 --> 5218.58] tricks there we've also got another amd value one that's mostly if you're building something a little +[5218.58 --> 5225.86] bit lower end and then overkill if you're doing liquid cooling you're gonna want this one so i hope +[5226.42 --> 5232.34] addresses that next i guess we're gonna be having a mineral oil one coming maybe it depends yeah it +[5232.34 --> 5240.82] depends are you excited for this year's e3 um i'm excited that i don't have to go i'm hoping i get to +[5240.82 --> 5245.62]

we need a t-shirt with the word wanger what are your opinions on gamecube that's actually +[5292.50 --> 5297.14] really cool that probably should have made it yeah you can play the new the upcoming super smash +[5297.14 --> 5303.06] brothers with your gamecube controller using an adapter for the wii u that is like really cool +[5303.06 --> 5310.10] actually yeah and like everyone is in love with that uh have you played watchdogs i have not played +[5310.10 --> 5316.02] it um i do have a copy i don't know if i would classify what i did as playing it you benchmarked it +[5316.02 --> 5320.34] yeah but i didn't really get to experience the game hello what is the highest end gpu i can run +[5320.34 --> 5324.42] with before but okay go watch my uh fastest possible on bottlenecking because it doesn't really +[5324.42 --> 5331.30] work that way um sup watching the stream from my macbook bro bro bro do you see game consoles ever +[5331.30 --> 5337.14] equaling pcs for price to performance yeah they're pretty much there right now ps4 is very competitive +[5337.14 --> 5342.10] price to performance wise with a low-end pc xbox one maybe not so much yeah maybe not a ps4 yeah +[5342.66 --> 5347.54] computex maxwell releases i don't know i have to leave but i'm waiting for one question that i have to +[5347.54 --> 5353.54] answer what would you recommend sly nope single 780 single 780 are you getting the razer blade 14 soon yes +[5354.50 --> 5359.46] uh they've finally confirmed we are getting one soon what drink do you get at tim hortons chocolate +[5359.46 --> 5365.54] milk really you go to every time you go to tim hortons to get chocolate milk i don't drink coffee +[5365.54 --> 5372.18] right but no it's like why would you go if everyone's going to tim hortons oh and then i'm like i want to +[5372.18 --> 5376.50] get like a meal or whatever okay chocolate milk with it because there's like nothing else there i don't +[5376.50 --> 5381.22] want to get pop i like the lemon iced tea i didn't even know they had that but yeah i know i'd probably +[5381.22 --> 5385.22] still get chocolate milk chocolate milk is pretty much the best thing that ever happened to humanity +[5387.22 --> 5389.54] let's not debate that because that happens immediately +[5392.74 --> 5396.90] opinion on ios 8 being confirmed i think that it's not very unexpected +[5396.90 --> 5403.62] it's another mobile operator yeah it's gonna be like the other one except slightly more different +[5403.62 --> 5409.22] you probably could have confirmed ios 8 on like ios 4. it's like it's gonna come at some point +[5411.70 --> 5417.54] um bye everyone any idea how valve will address the issue of windows games not working on linux well +[5417.54 --> 5421.70] there's not a whole lot they can do it's up to the individual developers whether or not they make the +[5421.70 --> 5427.70] game work on linux is home streaming the only option home streaming is a fantastic option if +[5427.70 --> 5432.10] that's the only option who cares that's a great option there's services like wine and stuff you +[5432.10 --> 5436.10] have to go get out of here which can make windows games work on linux i'm tired of you +[5436.10 --> 5441.54] they'll technically build something better if they wanted to bye all right what do you think about the +[5441.54 --> 5446.98] titans i think i already answered that one since we can join multiple groups now people are just +[5446.98 --> 5451.54] joining whatever and getting email invites for explore that's interesting i guess that's what's going on +[5451.70 --> 5461.86] there i got 99 problems but a g750 jay-z ain't one uh dimitru asks why no 1080p for the lan show archive +[5461.86 --> 5468.34] great question uh we switched from streaming at 1080 to 720 back when we were having bandwidth cap issues +[5468.34 --> 5474.98] with our isp um there is actually technically no reason why we couldn't stream at 1080 now and then the +[5474.98 --> 5481.06] archive would be at 1080 all right so i think let's call that pretty much it for the wan show today thank +[5481.06 --> 5486.74] you guys very much for tuning in i thought this was a pretty good show i hope you guys agreed thanks +[5486.74 --> 5494.42] again to our sponsors asus powered by the g750 jay-z all two of them wow there it is there's the other +[5494.42 --> 5500.26] one with that matte black and that shiny logo and all that good stuff and i'm going to tease it again we +[5500.26 --> 5505.30] do have another really exciting project planned with asus in the next little while it's funny because we +[5505.30 --> 5511.54] didn't do anything with asus for the first entire year that linus media group existed and now we're +[5511.54 --> 5516.42] like we've got like sponsoring the wan show and we got this really cool upcoming project you guys are +[5516.42 --> 5521.54] going to be pretty stoked on it trust me and uh big thanks to modus for also sponsoring the wan show +[5521.54

This time with my screen sharing working! +[7.00 --> 9.00] And no blue screen! +[9.00 --> 15.00] And no blue screen! You know what's interesting? This will be a good, very early show discussion. +[15.00 --> 21.00] Someone told me when we ended the show last week and then popped right back in, +[21.00 --> 25.00] they don't see the first 30 seconds because of the ad. +[25.00 --> 35.00] So whenever we do the first 30 seconds of our show, it actually gets cut off because the way that Twitch integrates ads is they just put it over top of the content, +[35.00 --> 42.00] whereas YouTube has a different approach that I'm used to. So I thought that was interesting. +[42.00 --> 45.00] So that means no one will see this until it's uploaded in the archive. +[45.00 --> 52.00] Yeah! They'll never know it was there. We could do anything! I mean, except that the other thousands of people will see it. +[52.00 --> 57.00] So, yeah, there's that. Someone says no sound. Yes, there is! +[58.00 --> 59.00] Um... +[59.00 --> 61.00] Yes, there is. I'm monitoring. +[61.00 --> 62.00] Well, yeah. Okay. +[62.00 --> 64.00] No, there is sound! +[64.00 --> 67.00] Because I was gonna say, remember in the recording we did? There was no sound. That was the whole problem. +[67.00 --> 72.00] That's true. There wasn't. But the levels are all going, and the monitoring is working. +[72.00 --> 78.00] So, way to troll us! We love you guys so much. So very much. +[78.00 --> 82.00] Oh, alright. So, let's kick off the show with... +[82.00 --> 85.00] Oh, right! No! Yes! Wait, what are our topics? +[85.00 --> 91.00] Right! Razor has the new Blade 14, which is an all-new version of the original Blade 14, +[91.00 --> 96.00] that takes everything that I thought was shite about the original one, and improves it to the point where... +[96.00 --> 101.00] And this... You know what? Min, their CEO, backed me into a corner on this one. +[101.00 --> 108.00] Because at CES, he made me promise that if they fixed everything I complained about, about the original Blade 14, +[108.00 --> 113.00] that I would go on camera with a revised model and say that it's the perfect notebook. +[113.00 --> 118.00] And I was like, if you guys can fix everything I complained about, then I will. And they did. +[118.00 --> 122.00] So, that's gonna be... That's gonna be awkward. +[122.00 --> 125.00] Oh, that is gonna be kinda awkward, actually. +[125.00 --> 133.00] P-Cell is a new wireless standard that looks to replace those monolithic cell phone towers with something that's smaller, easier to install, +[133.00 --> 138.00] but would require many more of them, but could potentially give us much better speeds. +[138.00 --> 143.00] Then we have Google is now gonna be encrypting your searches, and more on that. +[143.00 --> 151.00] And then, the fact that a thing called Popcorn Time existed for a very short period of time, and everything entailing that. +[151.00 --> 154.00] Alright, so let's get this rollin'. +[168.00 --> 183.00] And our sponsors today, Squarespace, the easy way to have a beautiful website for yourself, or for someone else. +[183.00 --> 190.00] As well as Hotbot Shield, so you can get 20% off your elite... +[190.00 --> 197.00] Subsc...subscription...slick threw me off there. He's like, touching things on my screen. No, no, it's okay, it's muted. +[197.00 --> 201.00] Well, yeah, because people were saying audio is echoing, so I thought that might have been it. +[201.00 --> 204.00] I tried to pause it, but then I saw that it was... No, I think they're trolling us. +[204.00 --> 211.00] So, the...right, Hotbot Shield, you can get 20% off elite pricing with offer code Linus, +[211.00 --> 214.00] and that is the fast, easy way to get a VPN set up. +[214.00 --> 219.00] It's also quite inexpensive, especially when you get that 20% off using our offer code. +[219.00 --> 221.00] And yes, it's the old intro. +[221.00 --> 224.00] Why is the WAN show early? That is an excellent question. +[224.00 --> 228.00] And let me go ahead and direct your attention to... +[228.00 --> 233.00] Daylight Savings Time is stupid. +[233.00 --> 240.00] So, if you Google, Daylight Savings Time is stupid, and it'll come up with thoughts from a gamer it's stupid, +[240.00 --> 245.00] why it should be abolished, how it's stupid, 14 reasons that it needs to end forever. +[245.00 --> 250.00] Daylight Savings Time is a thing in some parts of North America, not even all of them, +[250.00 --> 253.00] which I was baffled to discover when I was a kid. +[253.00 --> 254.00] Yeah. +[254.00 --> 256.00] I actually recently discovered that. +[256.00 --> 259.00] I thought Daylight Savings Time was literally a worldwide thing. +[259.00 --> 260.00] Nope. +[260.00 --> 262.00] And then, like, fairly recently, I was like, what? +[262.00 --> 268.00] Some parts of North America, even within Canada, there are provinces that do not use Daylight Savings Time. +[268.00 --> 276.00] So, every six months, the clocks jump forward an hour or back an hour in order to, in the spring, +[276.00 --> 283.00] give us more usable Daylight during the day, which is a factor when everyone's working outside in the fields, +[283.00 --> 286.00] and less of an issue in the modern age. +[286.00 --> 290.00] So, that is why the show is a little bit early. +[290.00 --> 293.00] Or you could just shift your, like, sleep cycle. +[293.00 --> 295.00] Yeah, you could do that. +[295.00 --> 296.00] Yeah. +[296.00 --> 302.00] So, companies could have their own thing, but there's no real reason for us to just be not in sync with the rest of the world every six months. +[302.00 --> 306.00] Yeah, because if you're a farmer in the field, you need more working Daylight. +[306.00 --> 308.00] Well, that's why farmers get up early! +[308.00 --> 309.00] Exactly! +[310.00 --> 313.00] You don't need to change the time for that! +[313.00 --> 319.00] Doesn't the rooster crow at a certain time, depending on the sun, no matter what time the clock says? +[319.00 --> 320.00] That's my understanding. +[320.00 --> 325.00] Although, if there are any farmers watching, we would love to hear your thoughts on rooster crowing. +[325.00 --> 329.00] If they all have a watch on, and then that's how they crow? I don't know. I don't know. +[329.00 --> 340.00] Alright, so, our Better Than Bieber segment today is significantly better than Bieber, because anything in outer space is automatically better than Bieber. +[340.00 --> 344.00] It is the 80th birthday of Yuri Gargarin. +[344.00 --> 347.00] I'm not 100% sure how to pronounce his last name, and I'm very sorry about that. +[347.00 --> 355.00] I know Neil Armstrong, because he's like, you know, because we're so Americanized up here, the only thing we know is like American heroes and celebrities. +[355.00 --> 362.00] But it is his 80th birthday, and he was the first man in space. +[362.00 --> 369.00] So, congratulations Yuri! Congratulations human race! What a big deal that was! +[369.00 --> 373.00] So, that was March 9th. That was 5 days ago. +[373.00 --> 380.00] So, he went into space for a 108 minute flight on April 12th, 1961. +[380.00 --> 384.00] He was born into a poor family March 9th, 1934. +[384.00 --> 390.00] In 1955, he was called up for military service and sent to study aviation in Orenburg. +[390.00 --> 396.00] And then on December 9th, 1959, he applied to join a squad for cosmonaut candidates. +[396.00 --> 397.00] How cool would that be? +[397.00 --> 398.00] Actually really cool. +[398.00 --> 399.00] First man in space. +[399.00 --> 404.00] I always wanted to be an astronaut, and then I was like, wow, I'm really not intelligent enough for this. +[404.00 --> 414.00] After his flight, he was never allowed to fly into space again, something he dreamt of, and he was actually killed in a MiG-15 UTI crash near the town of Kyrzak. +[414.00 --> 417.00] Sorry, I don't know how to pronounce that either. You weren't even going to try to help me. +[417.00 --> 419.00] I saw that coming, and I was like, oh no! +[419.00 --> 425.00] So, that was on a routine training flight, but he would have been 80. That's how... +[425.00 --> 427.00] Isn't that cool? +[427.00 --> 431.00] That's actually really cool. I like all the space news. +[431.00 --> 435.00] That's part of the reason why it always gets in the Better Than Bieber segment, because space news is just interesting. +[435.00 --> 437.00] People have heard my rant on... +[437.00 --> 438.00] It's better than Bieber in general. +[438.00 --> 439.00] Yeah, exactly. +[439.00 --> 441.00] I mean, so is anything. So is this t-shirt. +[441.00 --> 442.00] So is this t-shirt. +[442.00 --> 446.00] Where... Oh, I forgot to wear my Linus Tech Tips t-shirt today. +[446.00 --> 447.00] You wore it yesterday. +[447.00 --> 448.00] I have my Holy Balls one. +[448.00 --> 449.00] Yeah. +[449.00 --> 450.00] Oh, bummer. +[450.00 --> 453.00] Alright, so let's move into our first real news item of the week. +[453.00 --> 460.00] The original poster for this is DLM012 on LinusTechTips.com and Amazon Prime. +[460.00 --> 461.00] It's official. +[461.00 --> 463.00] The cost is going up. +[463.00 --> 468.00] The good news is that if you already have a subscription, you can lock in for one more +[468.00 --> 471.00] year at your old rates, which I actually think is pretty generous. +[471.00 --> 472.00] That's not too bad. +[472.00 --> 476.00] I... Honestly, when I first read this... Not this one, but when we first reported on it a +[476.00 --> 481.00] few weeks back, I thought they were just going like, yep, as of this month it is now this +[481.00 --> 482.00] much more. +[482.00 --> 486.00] Because that's how, like, everyone else on the planet does their rate increases. +[486.00 --> 491.00] Yeah, but no, they... I think they took a very consumer-friendly approach to it. +[491.00 --> 492.00] Yeah, no, I did too. +[492.00 --> 495.00] So here we've got someone posting their letter. +[495.00 --> 496.00] This is DLM012's post. +[496.00 --> 500.00] Um, so, hey, you know, just to let you know, it's going to be increasing. +[500.00 --> 509.00] So as of July 31st, 2015, I mean, the guys got like, like 15 months to enjoy it at the +[509.00 --> 510.00] old rate. +[510.00 --> 513.00] Uh, your membership will renew at $49 a year. +[513.00 --> 515.00] Um, and so that's the student rate. +[515.00 --> 518.00] So the student rate went from 39 to 49. +[518.00 --> 521.00] And then the grownups rate went from... I'm not saying students aren't grown up. +[521.00 --> 522.00] I'm just saying, like... +[522.00 --> 524.00] There could be students that are older than you. +[524.00 --> 525.00] Actually, there is students. +[525.00 --> 526.00] Yeah, 100%. +[526.00 --> 527.00] Students of life. +[527.00 --> 529.00] Or students at school. +[529.00 --> 532.00] Did you know that in BC, actually, I don't know, did you know this? +[532.00 --> 534.00] Um, post-secondary education is free for seniors? +[534.00 --> 535.00] What? No? +[535.00 --> 536.00] Yeah. +[536.00 --> 539.00] You can just go take classes at university, at like, UBC. +[539.00 --> 540.00] What? +[540.00 --> 541.00] Yeah. +[541.00 --> 543.00] Is that like a government sponsored thing or is that done by the schools? +[543.00 --> 544.00] I have no idea. +[544.00 --> 545.00] That's so random. +[545.00 --> 550.00] Yeah, so my mom's talking about like her retirement plan and she's like, yeah, you +[550.00 --> 555.00] know, well, I went to school, you know, and then I went to high school and then I went +[555.00 --> 559.00] to university and then I started teaching in a school and then I'm going to retire and +[559.00 --> 560.00] go back to school. +[560.00 --> 563.00] I'm just like, mama, I love you, but... +[563.00 --> 564.00] I would go for certain classes. +[564.00 --> 565.00] Yeah. +[565.00 --> 567.00] If they were free and I was retired, I'd definitely go for certain classes. +[567.00 --> 568.00] So there you go. +[568.00 --> 570.00] Very few people take advantage of it. +[570.00 --> 576.00] Um, so anyway, so for, for other people, it goes from $79 a year to $99 a year. +[576.00 --> 577.00] And I don't know. +[577.00 --> 583.00] I mean, given that the rumor was it could go up anywhere from up to like $40, $100 a year. +[583.00 --> 584.00] I don't know. +[584.00 --> 585.00] What do you think? +[585.00 --> 588.00] I'm still not going to get Prime because Amazon.ca is terrible. +[588.00 --> 589.00] Okay. +[589.00 --> 591.00] If you were in the U S would you pay a hundred dollars a year for Prime? +[591.00 --> 592.00] Probably. +[592.00 --> 597.00] When you consider that you get instant video, um, when you consider that you get free shipping, +[597.00 --> 598.00] when you consider... +[598.00 --> 599.00] Yep. +[599.00 --> 600.00] It's free shipping. +[600.00 --> 601.00] Right. +[601.00 --> 602.00] And the Kindle loaning library, lending library. +[602.00 --> 604.00] I would get it for free shipping. +[604.00 --> 606.00] There's something else that they have coming, right? +[606.00 --> 607.00] I don't know. +[607.00 --> 610.00] I don't pay as much attention as I probably should because I'm not American. +[610.00 --> 611.00] So it does not matter. +[611.00 --> 612.00] Well, it's in the docs. +[612.00 --> 615.00] So I was giving you an opportunity to talk because apparently there were complaints +[615.00 --> 618.00] you didn't talk enough last week, but since you're not going to take the bait, +[618.00 --> 623.00] uh, there's a rumor that Amazon will be launching some kind of a music service. +[623.00 --> 624.00] They already have that. +[624.00 --> 625.00] And that would... +[625.00 --> 626.00] Wait, what? +[626.00 --> 627.00] MP3. +[627.00 --> 628.00] If you buy MP3s, you can stream it through their website. +[628.00 --> 629.00] And they're going to have a streaming service. +[629.00 --> 632.00] So like some kind of like all you can eat style streaming service. +[632.00 --> 633.00] Oh, okay. +[633.00 --> 634.00] Yeah. +[634.00 --> 636.00] So there's a rumor that they're going to have a streaming service and then that might +[636.00 --> 637.00] be bundled with Prime as well. +[637.00 --> 639.00] Nobody really knows what's going on. +[639.00 --> 642.00] You know why I knew they had at least what they had so far for that? +[642.00 --> 645.00] I was trying to buy, because I was like, I should buy my music. +[645.00 --> 650.00] Because I'm getting frustrated on trying to listen to YouTube albums of people's music +[650.00 --> 652.00] because ads will play while I'm trying to run. +[652.00 --> 654.00] And sometimes it's like a half hour ad. +[654.00 --> 655.00] Yeah. +[655.00 --> 656.00] Yeah. +[656.00 --> 657.00] So I'm just like, okay, I don't really want to like stop and skip the ad. +[657.00 --> 659.00] So I was like, okay, I will buy my music. +[659.00 --> 661.00] I'll be a good citizen and I will buy my music. +[661.00 --> 665.00] Not possible to buy digital version of what I wanted to buy. +[665.00 --> 668.00] Because I wanted to buy Arctic Monkeys album AM. +[668.00 --> 671.00] And I was like, okay, so I go on Amazon.com, try to buy it. +[671.00 --> 672.00] Oh, you're a Canadian citizen. +[672.00 --> 673.00] Can't buy. +[673.00 --> 674.00] So I'm like, oh, okay. +[674.00 --> 678.00] I'll just get it from Amazon.ca for what I'm guessing is like two bucks more or something. +[678.00 --> 679.00] Go there. +[679.00 --> 680.00] No MP3 version. +[680.00 --> 682.00] MP3 downloaded, not supported in Canada. +[682.00 --> 684.00] It's like, what? +[684.00 --> 687.00] Now I have to go buy a music CD from brick and mortar? +[687.00 --> 690.00] Like when was the last time I've done that? +[690.00 --> 691.00] I don't even know where to go. +[691.00 --> 693.00] Like I don't know if Best Buy even has a music section. +[693.00 --> 694.00] Do you remember A&B Sound? +[694.00 --> 696.00] Yeah, they don't exist anymore. +[696.00 --> 699.00] But that was probably the last place I actually bought a CD. +[699.00 --> 700.00] And they don't exist. +[700.00 --> 701.00] They're gone. +[701.00 --> 702.00] I know. +[702.00 --> 703.00] What do I do? +[703.00 --> 707.00] It's because their entire business model was selling CDs and it's dead. +[707.00 --> 708.00] Oh my goodness. +[708.00 --> 709.00] Did you try iTunes? +[709.00 --> 711.00] I don't want to do iTunes. +[711.00 --> 712.00] I know you don't want to. +[712.00 --> 714.00] I don't want iTunes on my computer. +[714.00 --> 717.00] It's a big piece of garbage, but it works. +[717.00 --> 719.00] I know, but I don't want it. +[719.00 --> 720.00] I've bought songs through iTunes. +[720.00 --> 721.00] I had to. +[721.00 --> 726.00] I was looking for some stupid obscure thing, like it's some Christian band or something, +[726.00 --> 728.00] and I needed this song because I thought it was awesome. +[728.00 --> 730.00] And I was like, okay, where can I get this? +[730.00 --> 732.00] It's like, nope. +[732.00 --> 733.00] iTunes. +[733.00 --> 734.00] Nope. +[734.00 --> 735.00] That's it. +[735.00 --> 745.00] So, speaking of the difficulties that exist with legitimately obtaining legitimate content, +[745.00 --> 750.00] let's move into what I think is going to be one of our biggest topics this week, and that +[750.00 --> 752.00] is popcorn time. +[752.00 --> 755.00] So, this is a service that launched. +[755.00 --> 756.00] It launched this week, right? +[756.00 --> 757.00] This was fast. +[757.00 --> 759.00] This was really fast. +[759.00 --> 766.00] So, it launched like days ago, and the idea was, I think, for it to be used for legitimate +[766.00 --> 770.00] things, but let's be honest with ourselves, that was not. +[770.00 --> 774.00] Even if they didn't have the intent for it to be used for piracy, the internet had the +[774.00 --> 776.00] intent for it to be used for piracy immediately. +[776.00 --> 782.00] So, the idea was that it was kind of like a Netflix for pirates, and it was going to allow +[782.00 --> 790.00] the BitTorrent protocol, so that's peer-to-peer sharing, to let people stream movies and TV +[790.00 --> 791.00] shows and videos. +[791.00 --> 797.00] So, it had, you can see what the interface was, because it already doesn't exist anymore, +[797.00 --> 802.00] but you can see what the interface was, you could browse by category with thumbnails, and +[802.00 --> 807.00] the idea was that, unlike traditional BitTorrent clients, which allowed the user, oh yeah, +[807.00 --> 811.00] this article was submitted by TopWarGamer on the forum, thank you. +[811.00 --> 816.00] The idea was that, unlike traditional BitTorrent clients, where you can specify a seed ratio, +[816.00 --> 822.00] or a maximum seeding speed, the way that this worked was that, once you committed, you were +[822.00 --> 827.00] going to watch that movie, it would store it on your computer, and you would automatically +[827.00 --> 831.00] seed it until you actually rebooted, at which time all the associated files, +[831.00 --> 834.00] would be wiped from your computer. +[834.00 --> 838.00] So, as long as something was reasonably popular and up to date, and people were watching it, +[838.00 --> 844.00] it would be available on the service, and it would be streamed quickly and reliably, and +[844.00 --> 852.00] actually, because it wouldn't rely on Netflix's constant struggle with the internet service providers +[852.00 --> 859.00] to allow their service to be closer to their users, because it's peer-to-peer, you could actually +[859.00 --> 862.00] be streaming it from your next door neighbor, if they happen to be watching that movie, +[862.00 --> 863.00] someone down the street. +[863.00 --> 864.00] They don't even have to be watching. +[864.00 --> 865.00] That's right. +[865.00 --> 868.00] They have to have watched and not have restarted their computer yet. +[868.00 --> 869.00] That's right, which would be quite common. +[869.00 --> 873.00] But the idea is that you could be very close to where the content is being streamed from. +[873.00 --> 879.00] As a content delivery platform, it's absolutely brilliant. +[879.00 --> 890.00] But, if you go over to getpopcorntai.me, we're going to go ahead and have a look at that website. +[890.00 --> 893.00] This was never meant to be. +[893.00 --> 895.00] It says, goodbye. +[895.00 --> 897.00] You know, we started this to challenge ourselves. +[897.00 --> 903.00] They thanked the community for translating it into 32 languages, some of which they had never even heard of. +[903.00 --> 906.00] I just realized that, oh no, never mind, that's up. +[906.00 --> 908.00] I thought maybe it wasn't. +[908.00 --> 912.00] So they thanked the community for helping them translate it. +[912.00 --> 926.00] They basically said, look, we checked like four times that what we're doing is legal in much the same way that the BitTorrent platform and BitTorrent clients are legal because they're not specifically hosting any pirated content. +[926.00 --> 937.00] But, they basically went, look, there's an industry here that is established and they don't like what we're coming in and doing. +[937.00 --> 947.00] And whether what we're doing is legal or not, we are going to have to defend ourselves and we're going to be bearing a burden that no one should have to bear monetarily. +[947.00 --> 959.00] And so, I mean, even the stress, I mean, people have ended up in jail over, you know, rulings that come from judges that don't necessarily even understand the issues involved. +[959.00 --> 960.00] Yep. +[960.00 --> 961.00] And that's a big problem. +[961.00 --> 966.00] Do you want to be that guy or do you get your cease and desist from absolutely everybody? +[966.00 --> 969.00] I mean, these guys were getting covered by everyone. +[969.00 --> 970.00] It was a huge deal. +[970.00 --> 976.00] TechCrunch, Time Magazine, Ars Technica, Washington Post, Huffington Post, Yahoo Finance, Gizmodo. +[976.00 --> 978.00] Everyone was covering these guys. +[978.00 --> 979.00] Us. +[979.00 --> 980.00] We were covering these guys. +[980.00 --> 983.00] I mean, as soon as this popped up on the forum, I was like, wow, that's amazing. +[983.00 --> 984.00] We have to talk about it. +[984.00 --> 987.00] And I meant to try it, but it's gone now. +[987.00 --> 997.00] But they basically went, look, we created this not because we were trying to do something illegal or pirate content, +[997.00 --> 1004.00] but because we really feel like the distribution platform for content is fundamentally broken. +[1004.00 --> 1011.00] And one of the most interesting things in their letter, I'm going to try and find it right now, was here. +[1011.00 --> 1012.00] Right here. +[1012.00 --> 1016.00] Where they say, you know what is the best thing about popcorn time? +[1016.00 --> 1019.00] I'm going to blow this up so you guys can read along with us if you want. +[1019.00 --> 1027.00] And that tons of people agreed that the movie industry has way too many ridiculous restrictions on way too many markets. +[1027.00 --> 1028.00] And this is word for word. +[1028.00 --> 1030.00] Take Argentina, for example. +[1030.00 --> 1031.00] And this blew me away. +[1031.00 --> 1037.00] Streaming providers seem to believe that there's something about Mary is a recent movie. +[1037.00 --> 1040.00] That movie would be old enough to vote there. +[1040.00 --> 1042.00] And I was like, that's awesome. +[1042.00 --> 1046.00] The bulk of their users were not in the US. +[1046.00 --> 1047.00] It's everywhere else. +[1047.00 --> 1055.00] Popcorn Time got installed in every single country on earth, including two that don't have any official internet access. +[1055.00 --> 1059.00] That blows me away. +[1059.00 --> 1067.00] Because what they were doing, even if it did enable piracy, which, come on guys, we can't have this stupid argument anymore. +[1067.00 --> 1070.00] It's wrong to steal things. +[1070.00 --> 1077.00] And you can argue the semantics of the word steal all day, but it is wrong to not pay people for their work that they did. +[1077.00 --> 1084.00] And you can argue about whether the publisher deserved the money or the actor deserved the money or whoever deserved the money. +[1084.00 --> 1087.00] Somebody got to get paid for the work that they do. +[1087.00 --> 1089.00] You don't work for free. +[1089.00 --> 1090.00] Neither should they have to. +[1090.00 --> 1093.00] And if you do work for free, then you're doing it by choice. +[1093.00 --> 1097.00] And if someone else didn't choose to work for free, you have to respect that. +[1097.00 --> 1098.00] That's their right. +[1098.00 --> 1100.00] I tried to buy the Arctic Monkeys album. +[1100.00 --> 1106.00] I'm still going to have to try to figure out how to buy the Arctic Monkeys album without paying the exact... +[1106.00 --> 1109.00] Without paying more than the cost of the album in shipping. +[1109.00 --> 1111.00] Sorry, that's an option I found. +[1111.00 --> 1112.00] Oh, and guys, Twitter Blitz time. +[1112.00 --> 1115.00] I'd love for you guys to just kind of weigh in with your thoughts on this. +[1115.00 --> 1122.00] But anyway, so even if they weren't setting out to create a piracy platform, what they were doing was amazing. +[1122.00 --> 1124.00] Because it was going to level the field. +[1124.00 --> 1126.00] That's the point of the internet. +[1126.00 --> 1129.00] Is that we should all have access to this stuff. +[1129.00 --> 1132.00] And you know what? Screw geographical restrictions. +[1132.00 --> 1138.00] Aside from a PAL or NTSC format, why are we country locked? +[1138.00 --> 1141.00] Why can we only use this phone in that country? +[1141.00 --> 1143.00] Or play this game in that country? +[1143.00 --> 1144.00] It's absurd. +[1144.00 --> 1151.00] And the fact that we have the technology now to enable us to not deal with that crap anymore is... +[1151.00 --> 1153.00] Frustrating. +[1153.00 --> 1155.00] Any thoughts? +[1155.00 --> 1156.00] Yeah. +[1156.00 --> 1157.00] Sorry, I kind of talked for a while. +[1157.00 --> 1158.00] You actually covered it really well though. +[1158.00 --> 1161.00] We had a debate before the show that which you did not carry... +[1161.00 --> 1162.00] Aww. +[1162.00 --> 1164.00] Which you did not carry into the show. +[1164.00 --> 1165.00] Oh, what was our debate again? +[1165.00 --> 1169.00] You were saying that they were obviously creating a pirating platform. +[1169.00 --> 1170.00] They were. +[1170.00 --> 1172.00] But they did it with all good intentions. +[1172.00 --> 1176.00] During my thing I said, even if they weren't. +[1176.00 --> 1181.00] I mean, do you have any idea how many millions of dollars a site like Pirate Bay brings in a year? +[1181.00 --> 1182.00] Yeah. +[1182.00 --> 1186.00] You monetize a piracy platform and manage to keep it up? +[1186.00 --> 1188.00] There's a reason that the... +[1188.00 --> 1191.00] I don't remember how much it was, but the ISO hunt guy... +[1191.00 --> 1196.00] Especially when you go the direction that Pirate Bay is gone with their ads, which they're just like, +[1196.00 --> 1198.00] Yeah, we're not going to filter any of it. +[1198.00 --> 1199.00] Yeah. +[1199.00 --> 1201.00] Just put whatever you need. +[1201.00 --> 1203.00] There's like, boobies on our site. +[1203.00 --> 1204.00] Yeah. +[1204.00 --> 1205.00] Or something like that. +[1205.00 --> 1206.00] Um... +[1206.00 --> 1209.00] It's like, I feel real awkward ever going there to be like, +[1209.00 --> 1210.00] Yeah, this is what the Pirate Bay is. +[1210.00 --> 1212.00] And like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[1212.00 --> 1214.00] And showing anyone, explaining the whole system to anyone. +[1214.00 --> 1217.00] Because I'm like, yeah, there's tits all over the place. +[1217.00 --> 1218.00] Yeah. +[1218.00 --> 1219.00] This is weird. +[1219.00 --> 1220.00] This is sort of the underbelly. +[1220.00 --> 1222.00] Here's another reason why you shouldn't use it, Mom. +[1222.00 --> 1225.00] Um, I think the ISO hunt guy paid $110 million? +[1225.00 --> 1226.00] Or something like that? +[1226.00 --> 1228.00] Yeah, $110 million. +[1228.00 --> 1229.00] So, okay. +[1229.00 --> 1230.00] Think about this. +[1230.00 --> 1234.00] They had to think that he had $110 million. +[1234.00 --> 1235.00] Like, the... +[1235.00 --> 1238.00] And ISO hunt, I think, was number four. +[1238.00 --> 1240.00] Not even one of the top guns. +[1240.00 --> 1243.00] Like, Pirate Bay is bringing in some serious money. +[1243.00 --> 1249.00] So, if it wasn't in the back of their minds somewhere that they wanted to drive massive adoption... +[1249.00 --> 1251.00] And we've had this conversation. +[1251.00 --> 1253.00] Piracy drives a platform. +[1253.00 --> 1254.00] Yeah. +[1254.00 --> 1258.00] I personally believe that piracy is a big part of the reason that Android is so strong. +[1258.00 --> 1259.00] I was gonna say Windows. +[1259.00 --> 1260.00] And Windows, for that matter, as well. +[1260.00 --> 1261.00] Yeah. +[1261.00 --> 1263.00] Piracy drives platform adoption. +[1263.00 --> 1264.00] And so, if they didn't... +[1264.00 --> 1267.00] If it didn't occur to them that someone was gonna pirate content... +[1267.00 --> 1269.00] That's true, but you can tell that they didn't... +[1269.00 --> 1275.00] Even though it occurred to them that it might have driven piracy, you can tell that they didn't expect it to at least get as big as it did. +[1275.00 --> 1277.00] Because they shut down so fast. +[1277.00 --> 1280.00] There's no way they couldn't have pushed off lawyers for a little while. +[1280.00 --> 1283.00] But we don't know what's going on behind the scenes over there. +[1283.00 --> 1284.00] That's true. +[1284.00 --> 1287.00] For all I know, they could be selling the tech to Pirate Bay. +[1287.00 --> 1289.00] The... +[1289.00 --> 1290.00] Wow. +[1290.00 --> 1291.00] So... +[1291.00 --> 1292.00] That would be so smart. +[1292.00 --> 1297.00] Because then they could back off and not have to touch lawyers and just sell it for so much money. +[1297.00 --> 1298.00] So... +[1298.00 --> 1301.00] Or the Pirate Bay, being who they are, could just build it themselves. +[1301.00 --> 1302.00] Or whatever. +[1302.00 --> 1303.00] And just be like, lol. +[1303.00 --> 1304.00] Like, and that could have even been the point. +[1304.00 --> 1308.00] It could have been a group that was like, we're gonna make this just to prove that it can be done. +[1308.00 --> 1309.00] And then we're just gonna like run away. +[1309.00 --> 1310.00] And then other people can do it and deal with it. +[1310.00 --> 1315.00] And then we're just gonna like dump the source code on some like back door of the internet somewhere. +[1315.00 --> 1317.00] So that's stage two. +[1317.00 --> 1323.00] When we see like Forbes and Yahoo Finance, source code for Popcorn Time leaked. +[1323.00 --> 1325.00] So... +[1325.00 --> 1328.00] There's a lot of places this can go. +[1328.00 --> 1333.00] But Popcorn Time obviously doesn't intend to keep... +[1333.00 --> 1337.00] I mean, if there's a legitimate video platform, I would have loved to see something like this. +[1337.00 --> 1338.00] Yeah. +[1338.00 --> 1346.00] I mean, I love YouTube and I love Twitch, but they will always have the cost and logistical difficulties associated with centralized hosting. +[1346.00 --> 1350.00] Well, people have been talking about the torrent version of Twitch for a little while now. +[1350.00 --> 1351.00] Oh. +[1351.00 --> 1355.00] Of like torrent streaming, torrent streaming in general. +[1355.00 --> 1363.00] It's not a thing yet, but people have been talking for quite a while about how that would be a lot easier because then you wouldn't necessarily even need certain backbones in place. +[1363.00 --> 1364.00] Tell me this though. +[1364.00 --> 1366.00] What would you rather do? +[1366.00 --> 1372.00] Would you rather pay a monthly subscription for the privilege of using Twitch.tv, which I'm not saying they're doing. +[1372.00 --> 1373.00] I'm just saying... +[1373.00 --> 1374.00] No. +[1374.00 --> 1375.00] Which would you rather do? +[1375.00 --> 1382.00] Or would you rather use a service like Popcorn Time that mandates that you have to use your uplink to upload videos... +[1382.00 --> 1384.00] But hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. +[1384.00 --> 1393.00] ...that mandates that you have to utilize your bandwidth to support the rest of the platform and potentially puts you in a position where you're just paying for a more expensive monthly internet connection anyway. +[1393.00 --> 1395.00] I don't know. +[1395.00 --> 1396.00] Maybe Twitch. +[1396.00 --> 1397.00] I'm not sure. +[1397.00 --> 1403.00] But the reason why the torrenting streaming thing actually came out was the Venezuela riots. +[1403.00 --> 1409.00] Remember, I actually did talk about this very shortly on the show because people were talking, if you could get one slow pipe out... +[1409.00 --> 1410.00] Right. +[1410.00 --> 1415.00] ...and just stream it to one person and just barely stream it and then that person can share it to two or three and then it can escalate... +[1415.00 --> 1416.00] Right. +[1416.00 --> 1418.00] ...that's how you can stream information like that out. +[1418.00 --> 1420.00] So maybe it's not as widely used... +[1420.00 --> 1421.00] Right. +[1421.00 --> 1425.00] ...as something like Twitch where they control the whole platform and they monetize it like crazy and all this kind of stuff goes on. +[1425.00 --> 1426.00] Yeah. +[1426.00 --> 1429.00] But having it available would be really cool as well. +[1429.00 --> 1438.00] And another thing that ties into your increased bandwidth side of that two option thing is the Time Warner bandwidth thing that's coming out. +[1438.00 --> 1439.00] Yes. +[1439.00 --> 1440.00] That was interesting. +[1440.00 --> 1441.00] So, okay. +[1441.00 --> 1442.00] You know what? +[1442.00 --> 1443.00] Let's do... +[1443.00 --> 1446.00] Remember that we're doing that topic next because I think that ties in really well. +[1446.00 --> 1448.00] But let's go to the Twitter boards here. +[1448.00 --> 1449.00] Oh my god. +[1449.00 --> 1450.00] Let's hear what you guys have to say. +[1450.00 --> 1451.00] What's up? +[1451.00 --> 1452.00] What's up? +[1452.00 --> 1453.00] What's up? +[1453.00 --> 1454.00] What? +[1454.00 --> 1455.00] Oh! +[1455.00 --> 1457.00] The source code is already available. +[1457.00 --> 1458.00] Oh! +[1458.00 --> 1461.00] Uploaded four hours ago. +[1461.00 --> 1465.00] Which is right when they closed, isn't it? +[1465.00 --> 1466.00] Oh man. +[1466.00 --> 1467.00] That's classic. +[1467.00 --> 1469.00] They closed a couple hours ago. +[1469.00 --> 1470.00] That's interesting. +[1470.00 --> 1471.00] It's like, close, leak. +[1471.00 --> 1472.00] Bye. +[1473.00 --> 1474.00] Alright. +[1474.00 --> 1475.00] So let's go to Twitter. +[1475.00 --> 1476.00] Acid Alamo. +[1476.00 --> 1478.00] You know what, man? +[1478.00 --> 1479.00] You can't be more wrong. +[1479.00 --> 1482.00] I think piracy helps artists get their music heard. +[1482.00 --> 1483.00] It's not all bad. +[1483.00 --> 1487.00] If the artist believed in free music... +[1487.00 --> 1488.00] Some of them do. +[1488.00 --> 1489.00] And some of them do. +[1489.00 --> 1497.00] Weird Al Yankovic very famously released for free, on a dedicated website for it, a song called Don't Download This Song. +[1497.00 --> 1503.00] That basically just makes fun of the MPAA and the RIAA. +[1503.00 --> 1504.00] It's just like... +[1504.00 --> 1506.00] And makes fun and like... +[1506.00 --> 1512.00] Just parodies the idea that grandmothers are getting sued for pirating music. +[1512.00 --> 1514.00] And some artists believe in that. +[1514.00 --> 1517.00] But the issue is that you don't get to make that call. +[1517.00 --> 1519.00] And people like Logan can do it in a... +[1519.00 --> 1522.00] Even Logan from Tech Syndicate can do it in even a different way. +[1522.00 --> 1525.00] He doesn't have them available for free. +[1525.00 --> 1529.00] But publicly says, buy it, give it to everybody. +[1529.00 --> 1530.00] Yeah. +[1530.00 --> 1531.00] And that's fine too. +[1531.00 --> 1533.00] But that's his right. +[1533.00 --> 1534.00] Yeah. +[1534.00 --> 1537.00] If you create the content, it is your right to decide how people use it. +[1537.00 --> 1542.00] And you can think people are stupid for doing whatever they are doing as much as you want. +[1542.00 --> 1543.00] But it doesn't necessarily mean that you're right. +[1543.00 --> 1545.00] What's the point of the O-rings in the G710 Plus? +[1545.00 --> 1546.00] Good question. +[1546.00 --> 1550.00] It softens the presses when you bottom out the keys in theory. +[1550.00 --> 1552.00] And makes it a little bit quieter in theory. +[1552.00 --> 1554.00] As for the ISOHunt guy, yeah, he was from Vancouver. +[1554.00 --> 1555.00] My hometown. +[1555.00 --> 1557.00] It's not stealing if you don't get caught. +[1557.00 --> 1558.00] It's still stealing. +[1558.00 --> 1559.00] It's still stealing. +[1559.00 --> 1560.00] You're not a criminal. +[1560.00 --> 1561.00] You can argue semantics all day. +[1561.00 --> 1563.00] I'm not going to do that on this show because it's stupid. +[1563.00 --> 1565.00] Best example is Game of Thrones. +[1565.00 --> 1566.00] The most pirated series. +[1566.00 --> 1568.00] There is no legit way to watch in Europe. +[1568.00 --> 1569.00] Yeah. +[1569.00 --> 1574.00] And that is a fantastic example of a completely missed opportunity. +[1574.00 --> 1579.00] Because the content providers, the local governments, whoever it is, can't figure out how to just +[1579.00 --> 1583.00] freaking work together and cash in all that money. +[1583.00 --> 1585.00] Because people are willing to pay. +[1585.00 --> 1588.00] I could be totally wrong, but don't they film part of it in Europe? +[1588.00 --> 1589.00] I think so. +[1589.00 --> 1590.00] But I'm not sure. +[1590.00 --> 1591.00] And it's not available in Europe? +[1591.00 --> 1593.00] Are they high? +[1593.00 --> 1594.00] Well, it's kind of like... +[1594.00 --> 1596.00] I'm not sure if I'm right of it. +[1596.00 --> 1598.00] I forget what it is. +[1598.00 --> 1603.00] It's not oranges, but there's some fruit that's grown in California predominantly, but it's +[1603.00 --> 1605.00] actually more expensive there than it is here. +[1605.00 --> 1608.00] It's not oranges, you said? +[1608.00 --> 1610.00] It's not oranges, I don't think. +[1610.00 --> 1614.00] It saddens me to see stuff like this get shut down because what they're doing is wrong, +[1614.00 --> 1615.00] but because... +[1615.00 --> 1618.00] Not because what they're doing is wrong, but because they got too big doing it. +[1618.00 --> 1620.00] But that's a lot of the time what happens. +[1620.00 --> 1621.00] You know? +[1621.00 --> 1623.00] When what you're doing is with the best intentions... +[1623.00 --> 1625.00] Like, you know what? +[1625.00 --> 1628.00] A great example is when we do worldwide giveaways. +[1628.00 --> 1629.00] You know what? +[1629.00 --> 1631.00] The way we do it isn't really legitimate. +[1631.00 --> 1638.00] And if we turn into, you know, NBC, Minus Media Group turns into the next, like, multinational +[1638.00 --> 1642.00] media conglomerate, we won't be able to do worldwide giveaways anymore because you're +[1642.00 --> 1643.00] under more scrutiny. +[1643.00 --> 1646.00] I was gonna say, you might want to explain how it's not... +[1646.00 --> 1647.00] Yeah. +[1647.00 --> 1649.00] Like, it's not... +[1649.00 --> 1650.00] You can't. +[1650.00 --> 1655.00] There's local laws and giveaway laws in many different places which really screw with +[1655.00 --> 1656.00] giveaways. +[1656.00 --> 1660.00] We're able to fly under the radar because we're not big enough, but we're not... +[1660.00 --> 1661.00] We're not... +[1661.00 --> 1665.00] What we're screwing with is a lot of places you're not allowed gifting people things. +[1665.00 --> 1666.00] Yeah. +[1666.00 --> 1671.00] Or you have to pay 100% of the cost of the item on top of the actual item, on top of +[1671.00 --> 1674.00] import fees, on top of taxes to be able to give someone something. +[1674.00 --> 1676.00] We might as well just send you the cash. +[1676.00 --> 1677.00] Like, it would be... +[1677.00 --> 1681.00] Yeah, at that point in time it would be literally half the cost to just send you money. +[1681.00 --> 1682.00] Yeah. +[1682.00 --> 1684.00] So, yeah, there's lots of problems. +[1684.00 --> 1686.00] Geo-restrictions, money. +[1686.00 --> 1690.00] No, sometimes geo-restrictions just result in no money for anyone. +[1690.00 --> 1691.00] That's the problem. +[1691.00 --> 1693.00] Um, that page is awesome. +[1693.00 --> 1694.00] You were right, Linus. +[1694.00 --> 1695.00] They have to change region locks. +[1695.00 --> 1696.00] Yep. +[1696.00 --> 1697.00] My first time, I love it. +[1697.00 --> 1700.00] I have no idea what you're talking about, Kenny. +[1700.00 --> 1703.00] Feels like the first time. +[1703.00 --> 1707.00] It's really hard to sing with your voice in your ear, slightly delayed. +[1707.00 --> 1710.00] Uh, just embrace iTunes, man. +[1710.00 --> 1711.00] No. +[1711.00 --> 1712.00] I don't want to. +[1712.00 --> 1715.00] I might build, like, you know my, like, secondary computer that I let people use when they come +[1715.00 --> 1716.00] over to LAN? +[1716.00 --> 1717.00] Yeah. +[1717.00 --> 1718.00] I might just, like, put iTunes on that. +[1718.00 --> 1719.00] Yeah. +[1719.00 --> 1720.00] Screw you guys. +[1720.00 --> 1723.00] We are not doing the bronze gay Ben statue. +[1723.00 --> 1725.00] I'm sure that would creep him out way too much. +[1725.00 --> 1726.00] Yeah. +[1726.00 --> 1729.00] If big movie companies don't want to be stolen from, they can't charge what they charge and +[1729.00 --> 1730.00] expect to be profitable. +[1730.00 --> 1731.00] Yeah. +[1731.00 --> 1734.00] But this is another thing that isn't really the right of the consumer to decide. +[1734.00 --> 1739.00] Um, you don't get to decide a car's, I mean, like, I know this is the analogy they use, +[1739.00 --> 1740.00] but they're right. +[1740.00 --> 1742.00] You don't get to decide that car's too expensive. +[1742.00 --> 1744.00] I'll just steal one. +[1744.00 --> 1749.00] If it's too expensive, and I've said this so many times, don't buy it. +[1749.00 --> 1753.00] But you also don't get to watch it or listen to it. +[1753.00 --> 1755.00] That's just how it works. +[1755.00 --> 1759.00] And if enough people don't buy it, they will lower prices. +[1759.00 --> 1762.00] But people refuse to just boycott things. +[1762.00 --> 1763.00] You know what? +[1763.00 --> 1764.00] You don't like- +[1764.00 --> 1766.00] As a whole, we just can't seem to do that. +[1766.00 --> 1767.00] No, we just can't do it. +[1767.00 --> 1768.00] Like, we've tried so many times. +[1768.00 --> 1771.00] People are just like, nah, because I won't make that big of a dent. +[1771.00 --> 1775.00] But then hundreds of thousands of people are like, nah, my dent's not that big. +[1775.00 --> 1777.00] I feel like that's the same as ad block. +[1777.00 --> 1782.00] If I don't like, um, you know, say for example, an artist. +[1782.00 --> 1785.00] Who's that one that was caught with the child porn? +[1785.00 --> 1786.00] I don't know. +[1786.00 --> 1788.00] I can't, I can't remember off the top of my head. +[1788.00 --> 1793.00] I thought it was the guy making the, oh, yeah. +[1793.00 --> 1795.00] Uh, oh, apparently he was acquitted. +[1795.00 --> 1798.00] So, allegedly child porn, R. Kelly. +[1798.00 --> 1799.00] Whatever, he can be acquitted all he wants. +[1799.00 --> 1801.00] I won't listen to any of his songs. +[1801.00 --> 1802.00] Comes on the radio, won't listen to it. +[1802.00 --> 1804.00] Pay or not pay. +[1804.00 --> 1807.00] If you don't like something, don't use it. +[1807.00 --> 1808.00] And then it will go away. +[1808.00 --> 1812.00] You know, if you, if people don't like that, uh, oh, who's that other- +[1812.00 --> 1814.00] It won't go away because no one else is going to do what you do. +[1814.00 --> 1815.00] Or what we do. +[1815.00 --> 1817.00] Who's that other stupid guy? +[1817.00 --> 1820.00] Um, the, uh, the South Park fish, fish sticks one. +[1820.00 --> 1821.00] Uh, Kanye. +[1821.00 --> 1822.00] Kanye. +[1822.00 --> 1823.00] Yeah. +[1823.00 --> 1826.00] If you don't like Kanye selling a plain white t-shirt for however much you charged for it. +[1826.00 --> 1827.00] Do you remember that thing? +[1827.00 --> 1828.00] Wasn't it like $500 or something? +[1828.00 --> 1829.00] I don't remember what it was. +[1829.00 --> 1830.00] I could be totally wrong. +[1830.00 --> 1831.00] I don't remember what it was. +[1831.00 --> 1832.00] I remember it sucked. +[1832.00 --> 1835.00] $120 plain white t-shirt that had nothing special about it. +[1835.00 --> 1837.00] If you don't like it, don't buy it. +[1837.00 --> 1838.00] And it'll go away. +[1838.00 --> 1840.00] But people cannot handle that. +[1840.00 --> 1841.00] Alright, so back to this. +[1841.00 --> 1844.00] So $500 is a lot higher than it actually was. +[1844.00 --> 1846.00] Um, YouTube slash mp3.org. +[1846.00 --> 1847.00] Okay. +[1847.00 --> 1848.00] I have no idea what that is. +[1848.00 --> 1850.00] I'm not allowed, I believe. +[1850.00 --> 1851.00] Haven't actually used it. +[1851.00 --> 1853.00] Um, about your new segment. +[1853.00 --> 1854.00] Better than he who must not be named. +[1854.00 --> 1856.00] Never show his face or mention his name again. +[1856.00 --> 1859.00] Did that end up in the news, in our news this week? +[1859.00 --> 1860.00] In our doc? +[1860.00 --> 1861.00] I don't want to talk about that. +[1861.00 --> 1862.00] It's awesome! +[1862.00 --> 1864.00] But that is about him! +[1864.00 --> 1866.00] Well, it's a- oh, come on. +[1866.00 --> 1868.00] That's completely against the segment! +[1868.00 --> 1870.00] Oh no, not as the- as the segment. +[1870.00 --> 1871.00] Can we just talk about it? +[1871.00 --> 1872.00] Very briefly? +[1872.00 --> 1878.00] That's completely against the whole ideal moral of the show and the point of having that +[1878.00 --> 1879.00] segment in the show. +[1879.00 --> 1885.00] We can't talk about news, it has to do with him on the show when we have a segment that's +[1885.00 --> 1887.00] about how much people talk about news that have to do with him. +[1887.00 --> 1888.00] Well, I thought it was hilarious. +[1888.00 --> 1890.00] But that's why everyone's talking about him all the time. +[1890.00 --> 1891.00] Alright, fine. +[1891.00 --> 1892.00] We need to stop. +[1892.00 --> 1895.00] I'm from the US, so every time I hear about contract restrictions my jaw drops. +[1895.00 --> 1896.00] Yup. +[1896.00 --> 1899.00] Yeah, I mean even here in Canada we're relatively sheltered. +[1899.00 --> 1904.00] Um, I refuse to use iTunes and Google Music isn't available in the UK. +[1904.00 --> 1910.00] But then you just- well, you can't just refuse to use gas stations and then expect to still +[1910.00 --> 1911.00] be able to drive. +[1911.00 --> 1914.00] Like, if the- +[1914.00 --> 1920.00] Ah, maybe I don't even want to hear from you people about this. +[1920.00 --> 1921.00] Let's- +[1921.00 --> 1924.00] Let's go ahead and move on to our next topic. +[1924.00 --> 1925.00] What was it again? +[1925.00 --> 1929.00] Uh, there's the- the Time Warner bandwidth cap voluntary thing that no one did because +[1929.00 --> 1930.00] it's dumb. +[1930.00 --> 1931.00] Yeah, that was ridiculous. +[1931.00 --> 1937.00] So we were talking about, uh, would you rather pay for higher bandwidth caps or would you +[1937.00 --> 1942.00] rather pay for, um, like to use services? +[1942.00 --> 1944.00] Because someone has to pay at some point for something. +[1944.00 --> 1948.00] So you're either going to be contributing to a peer-to-peer network or you're going to say, +[1948.00 --> 1951.00] okay, no centralized servers are better for me but I have to pay for this somehow. +[1951.00 --> 1956.00] Whether it's through watching ads or whether it's through, um, whether it's through just +[1956.00 --> 1957.00] paying for it outright. +[1957.00 --> 1959.00] So, hey, I'll let you cover this one. +[1959.00 --> 1963.00] So, they decided that you can save about $60 a year- +[1963.00 --> 1966.00] Which is, like, really not that much, Time Warner. +[1966.00 --> 1968.00] $5 a month. +[1968.00 --> 1972.00] And have bandwidth caps of 30 gigabytes. +[1972.00 --> 1978.00] To which less than 1% in the thousands of their 11 million customers decided to actually +[1978.00 --> 1982.00] opt in for because it's a very terrible thing. +[1982.00 --> 1983.00] And you're dumb. +[1983.00 --> 1988.00] I don't even, like, know what else to say. +[1988.00 --> 1994.00] Um, he said practically- the CEO, Rob Marcus said, practically no subscribers took the ISP +[1994.00 --> 1998.00] up on its offer for cheaper service- cheaper service. +[1998.00 --> 1999.00] $5 a month. +[1999.00 --> 2000.00] Shut up. +[2000.00 --> 2003.00] Give us a half-price service with a very limited bandwidth. +[2003.00 --> 2004.00] Yeah. +[2004.00 --> 2005.00] Now maybe we're talking. +[2005.00 --> 2006.00] Yeah, exactly. +[2006.00 --> 2007.00] $5 a month. +[2007.00 --> 2009.00] Like, you're not winning battles there, man. +[2009.00 --> 2012.00] Um, for service with a data cap. +[2012.00 --> 2013.00] A data cap? +[2013.00 --> 2015.00] It's 30 gigs for a home internet connection. +[2016.00 --> 2017.00] What? +[2017.00 --> 2021.00] Like, I just downloaded Titanfall that would have crushed the whole cap. +[2021.00 --> 2023.00] Like, what the heck? +[2023.00 --> 2024.00] I don't know. +[2024.00 --> 2027.00] This is something that I brought up before, though, actually, when we were talking about +[2027.00 --> 2028.00] Call of Duty Ghosts. +[2028.00 --> 2030.00] When people were talking about how it was like 50 gigs, right? +[2030.00 --> 2031.00] Yeah. +[2031.00 --> 2034.00] And I was saying physical media might come back for games, specifically. +[2034.00 --> 2035.00] Yeah. +[2035.00 --> 2038.00] Because if you're downloading these, like, 50 gigabyte games- it took me all freaking night. +[2038.00 --> 2041.00] I started downloading Titanfall after work, couldn't play it that night. +[2041.00 --> 2043.00] Had to play it the next day. +[2043.00 --> 2045.00] Because it's still at 2 in the morning, it wasn't done. +[2045.00 --> 2046.00] Right. +[2046.00 --> 2049.00] And, like, I have a pretty good internet connection. +[2049.00 --> 2050.00] It was not my side. +[2050.00 --> 2052.00] It took way too long. +[2052.00 --> 2058.00] If I just decided to go to the store and drive back, I could have had the game in 15 minutes, +[2058.00 --> 2059.00] 20 minutes? +[2059.00 --> 2061.00] So, I've got a straw poll for you guys. +[2061.00 --> 2063.00] I'm gonna go ahead and post that in the chat right now. +[2063.00 --> 2070.00] Would you agree to a 30 gig per month cap for half of your current rate that you're paying? +[2070.00 --> 2073.00] I think I already know the answer, but whatever. +[2073.00 --> 2075.00] Um, wow! +[2075.00 --> 2076.00] No! +[2076.00 --> 2077.00] Thank you! +[2077.00 --> 2079.00] I wouldn't either. +[2079.00 --> 2081.00] Two people were like- +[2081.00 --> 2082.00] Two people! +[2082.00 --> 2083.00] Yeah! +[2083.00 --> 2085.00] You guys rock on! +[2085.00 --> 2087.00] You rock on, all two of you! +[2087.00 --> 2091.00] Alright, so we'll go ahead and leave that for a little bit, but- +[2091.00 --> 2092.00] I'm not- +[2092.00 --> 2093.00] Crushed! +[2093.00 --> 2094.00] So, you know what? +[2094.00 --> 2101.00] This actually looks in line with the number of people who actually did it according to Time Warner Cable. +[2101.00 --> 2103.00] A couple percent. +[2103.00 --> 2105.00] They said less than 1%. +[2105.00 --> 2106.00] Did they say less than 1%? +[2106.00 --> 2108.00] Yeah, but people are probably trolling as well, so- +[2108.00 --> 2112.00] Yeah, well, considering it sat at 2 for a really long time, and then we called it out, and then everyone was like, +[2112.00 --> 2113.00] Yes, yes, yes, yes! +[2113.00 --> 2114.00] Yeah. +[2114.00 --> 2121.00] So, it's one of those things where, yeah, I think we can just all agree on this one, except you 16 people, and I'm sorry, but you're- +[2121.00 --> 2122.00] But you're- +[2122.00 --> 2124.00] Especially if they're watching this show! +[2124.00 --> 2126.00] Yeah, if you're watching this show! +[2126.00 --> 2131.00] Your, like, whole bandwidth is gonna get taken up from watching Land Show for a month. +[2131.00 --> 2136.00] Maybe they are so hardcore that this is the only- +[2136.00 --> 2138.00] That's all they're gonna do! +[2138.00 --> 2142.00] The only thing they do on the internet is watch this show! +[2143.00 --> 2147.00] They get to watch one two-hour segment, four times a month- +[2147.00 --> 2148.00] Of this show! +[2148.00 --> 2149.00] And that's it! +[2149.00 --> 2151.00] And we love you guys! +[2151.00 --> 2152.00] You're awesome! +[2152.00 --> 2154.00] Thank you, you, like, 20 people or whatever it is! +[2154.00 --> 2155.00] That's great! +[2155.00 --> 2158.00] Oh, man! +[2158.00 --> 2159.00] Okay, so- +[2159.00 --> 2161.00] The best part is, it's still slow! +[2161.00 --> 2162.00] What is? +[2162.00 --> 2167.00] So, you're paying half the price, but it's still a lot of money, because half the price is still not that cheap. +[2167.00 --> 2168.00] Right. +[2168.00 --> 2173.00] It's still really slow internet, and you have this crappy data cap. +[2173.00 --> 2177.00] Or, you can be San Antonio, and possibly be getting Google Fiber. +[2177.00 --> 2178.00] Yeah! +[2178.00 --> 2181.00] Okay, okay, let's move on to that. +[2181.00 --> 2191.00] Actually, both of these topics, the upcoming ones, are about how infrastructure just needs to get better, and may just be getting better. +[2191.00 --> 2192.00] Hold on, where is it? +[2192.00 --> 2194.00] You can use the headers, but it's right there. +[2194.00 --> 2195.00] I'll use your headers. +[2195.00 --> 2198.00] Alright, so let's go ahead and pop over to this. +[2198.00 --> 2201.00] So, this is from mysanantonio.com. +[2201.00 --> 2206.00] San Antonio City Council OKs Google Fiber Contract. +[2206.00 --> 2209.00] San Antonio, you guys are awesome! +[2209.00 --> 2211.00] The people who live there are awesome! +[2211.00 --> 2213.00] And Google is awesome! +[2213.00 --> 2218.00] My favorite thing about reading this article, everyone that's watching right now, I highly suggest checking out this article. +[2218.00 --> 2219.00] I'll post it. +[2219.00 --> 2220.00] Okay. +[2220.00 --> 2225.00] Read through it and read the quotes from the guy that's on City Council, who's pushing for it mainly. +[2225.00 --> 2228.00] He is the biggest, and this is awesome, I'm not saying this in a negative way. +[2228.00 --> 2230.00] Usually when I say this word, it's negative. +[2230.00 --> 2232.00] But he is the biggest fanboy ever. +[2232.00 --> 2234.00] And it's hilarious! +[2234.00 --> 2240.00] The whole time, he's just like, yeah, it's, oh, well, he's saying like, when it's here, when it's here, when it's here, and then he goes in like, +[2240.00 --> 2243.00] a big important part of my job is managing expectations. +[2243.00 --> 2247.00] We don't know when it's coming, or if it's coming, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, all of his other quotes. +[2247.00 --> 2248.00] When it's here, when it's here! +[2248.00 --> 2250.00] It's like, yes! +[2250.00 --> 2254.00] And then right at the end, he says, I don't actually see where it is right now. +[2254.00 --> 2263.00] When we get this, remember what I just said, when we get this, and I believe we will, I would like to request a San Antonio themed Google homepage. +[2263.00 --> 2264.00] That would be really nice. +[2264.00 --> 2265.00] Awesome! +[2265.00 --> 2269.00] Like, that's so cool! +[2269.00 --> 2271.00] Oh, wow! +[2271.00 --> 2273.00] I want this guy on my city council. +[2273.00 --> 2274.00] Me too! +[2274.00 --> 2275.00] Me too! +[2275.00 --> 2276.00] That's fantastic! +[2276.00 --> 2277.00] So good! +[2277.00 --> 2278.00] So what else is there about it? +[2278.00 --> 2280.00] I mean, there are some challenges. +[2280.00 --> 2290.00] Right now, the company, or the city owned CPS Energy owns 86% of the telephone poles. +[2290.00 --> 2291.00] But... +[2291.00 --> 2294.00] AT&T owns the other 14%. +[2294.00 --> 2295.00] Dun dun dun! +[2295.00 --> 2296.00] Oh no! +[2297.00 --> 2308.00] Although I do bet you those are in fairly confined areas, and while 14% is still very large, when you're talking about this kind of stuff, it's probably able to be bypassed, and probably won't be the biggest deal. +[2308.00 --> 2310.00] It's still going to be a hurdle that they're going to have to jump over. +[2310.00 --> 2312.00] Yeah, what else, what else they got? +[2312.00 --> 2317.00] Something interesting that I noticed was that they haven't pinned down the locations yet, but they're planning to install them in libraries. +[2317.00 --> 2319.00] We haven't said what they are. +[2319.00 --> 2320.00] Oh, for fiber huts. +[2320.00 --> 2326.00] So they're planning on installing 4B40 fiber huts, which are 12 by 26 foot communication shelters. +[2326.00 --> 2327.00] I would live in a fiber hut. +[2327.00 --> 2329.00] Even if it was just a hut. +[2329.00 --> 2330.00] I would just live there. +[2330.00 --> 2333.00] Like 40 gigabit in, up and down. +[2333.00 --> 2336.00] You just want anything, click. +[2336.00 --> 2337.00] Yes. +[2337.00 --> 2338.00] It was so good. +[2338.00 --> 2339.00] Sorry, go ahead. +[2339.00 --> 2347.00] So yeah, 12 by 26 foot communication shelters, which are going to house all of the fiber communications infrastructure that they need. +[2347.00 --> 2356.00] They're going to install these in, most likely, they don't have pinned locations yet, but most likely libraries, fire and police stations, and other city properties across San Antonio. +[2356.00 --> 2363.00] Which I immediately thought about, this seems like the set up and like wind up part of the next Batman movie. +[2363.00 --> 2364.00] Google. +[2364.00 --> 2365.00] Oh, okay. +[2365.00 --> 2366.00] I'm going to have to let you explain that. +[2366.00 --> 2376.00] Google this big corporation installs these fiber huts in big city buildings, and then they collect all the data because, um, have you read about- +[2376.00 --> 2378.00] And Eric Schmidt is the Joker? +[2378.00 --> 2379.00] Or something like that. +[2379.00 --> 2383.00] And then Batman has to come in and like shut down all these individual huts that are protected by guards. +[2383.00 --> 2384.00] I hope Warner Brothers isn't watching. +[2384.00 --> 2386.00] Because they're stealing- +[2386.00 --> 2388.00] Because they might actually do this. +[2388.00 --> 2393.00] Because they're stealing data from- because like police, fire, libraries, and other city properties. +[2393.00 --> 2399.00] So if they install it at like City Hall, all the police stations and all the fire stations, they could know all the foot traffic of all the different things. +[2399.00 --> 2401.00] Oh yeah, totally seems like the next Batman movie. +[2401.00 --> 2402.00] Fantastic. +[2402.00 --> 2404.00] I just immediately thought of that. +[2404.00 --> 2414.00] And what made me mainly think of that is if you've read the thing on John McAfee, his recent thing about how the- he was spying on police in Belize or something like that. +[2414.00 --> 2415.00] Yeah. +[2415.00 --> 2416.00] I was like, because he donated computers. +[2416.00 --> 2417.00] I was like, this is like Google Fiber. +[2417.00 --> 2421.00] Except for instead of donating computers, they're just installing little structures inside those buildings. +[2421.00 --> 2424.00] And instead of spying on police, they're spying on everyone. +[2424.00 --> 2425.00] Yes. +[2425.00 --> 2427.00] But specifically, mainly- +[2427.00 --> 2430.00] This doesn't even necessarily have to be Batman. +[2430.00 --> 2432.00] This could be almost anything. +[2432.00 --> 2433.00] This could be like- +[2433.00 --> 2434.00] Pretty much whatever. +[2434.00 --> 2437.00] Yeah, you could call the movie like, The Biggest Brother. +[2437.00 --> 2438.00] Die hard. +[2438.00 --> 2439.00] And it wouldn't be about a large black man. +[2439.00 --> 2441.00] It would be about your idea. +[2441.00 --> 2443.00] I mean, it could be about both. +[2443.00 --> 2447.00] The large black man is the one that takes down all the Google Fiber. +[2447.00 --> 2455.00] No, to be clear, I know some people don't like black or white or whatever, but I'm just kind of going, treat others as you want to be treated. +[2455.00 --> 2457.00] I'm totally okay if people call me white. +[2457.00 --> 2462.00] I know their skin's not black and my skin isn't white, but it's very convenient. +[2462.00 --> 2464.00] That's all I have to say about that. +[2464.00 --> 2465.00] What was I going to say? +[2465.00 --> 2468.00] And I apologize in advance to anyone that I may have offended. +[2468.00 --> 2470.00] Because I probably did offend someone. +[2470.00 --> 2471.00] Disclaimer. +[2471.00 --> 2478.00] You know, I think the last like six WAN shows in a row I've had someone message me after the show and tell me how upset they are because of something. +[2478.00 --> 2480.00] I said, I'm sorry, it's a live show. +[2480.00 --> 2482.00] And sometimes I talk without thinking. +[2482.00 --> 2483.00] Anyway. +[2483.00 --> 2486.00] Was there anything else to say about this? +[2486.00 --> 2488.00] There was, but I don't even remember. +[2488.00 --> 2489.00] Right. +[2489.00 --> 2493.00] So, despite the excitement of the city council member, which is fantastic. +[2493.00 --> 2495.00] You have to read through the article. +[2495.00 --> 2497.00] He said it's still going to be a really long time coming. +[2497.00 --> 2504.00] They still have legal loopholes to jump through like the AT&T owning a whole bunch of the polls thing and other legal loopholes that they have to go through. +[2504.00 --> 2506.00] It's been approved. +[2506.00 --> 2508.00] They still have to go through a huge process. +[2508.00 --> 2512.00] They won't even be done doing Google's required pay work for at least two weeks. +[2512.00 --> 2519.00] And then they have to get through testing and figuring out where all these fiber huts actually even should go. +[2519.00 --> 2521.00] Then they have to build them all. +[2521.00 --> 2523.00] Then they have to run lines to everyone's houses and like blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[2523.00 --> 2524.00] So it's going to take a while. +[2524.00 --> 2525.00] It's still going to be a really long time. +[2525.00 --> 2531.00] But it's going to be like full scale Google fiber, not in like the middle of nowhere. +[2531.00 --> 2532.00] Yeah. +[2532.00 --> 2533.00] So, freaking awesome. +[2533.00 --> 2535.00] Well, I kind of want it in the middle of nowhere. +[2535.00 --> 2536.00] I want it here. +[2536.00 --> 2537.00] Yeah, I want it here too. +[2537.00 --> 2538.00] Okay. +[2538.00 --> 2540.00] So this article is from Business Insider. +[2540.00 --> 2550.00] This is supposedly the technology that is going to make your phone's internet a thousand times faster than 4G. +[2550.00 --> 2557.00] Now, to be clear guys, a thousand times faster than 4G is probably more like network capacity. +[2557.00 --> 2565.00] Because we're a long way away from flash chips that are capable of leveraging that kind of throughput. +[2565.00 --> 2566.00] That's what I thought when I first read that. +[2566.00 --> 2568.00] I was like, oh, this isn't real at all. +[2568.00 --> 2573.00] This is kind of like when we talk about, you know, 100 gigabit, you know, internet. +[2573.00 --> 2576.00] Because we're so far away from that even mattering. +[2576.00 --> 2580.00] We're going to need like light based storage in our computers for that to even be a thing. +[2580.00 --> 2582.00] But, okay, so what's it called? +[2582.00 --> 2583.00] P-cell? +[2583.00 --> 2584.00] P-cell. +[2584.00 --> 2592.00] And the idea is getting away from giant, very widespread out cell towers so that when you're kind of in between, you're running it like a bar or no bars. +[2592.00 --> 2598.00] And the idea is installing these fairly small boxes kind of all over the place so that you constantly have really good signal. +[2598.00 --> 2603.00] And then the individual boxes will be very powerful, just not as wide range. +[2603.00 --> 2607.00] So you'll be able to get a lot faster speed while you're in range and then they're all over the place. +[2607.00 --> 2608.00] Which has its own complications. +[2608.00 --> 2617.00] Because now instead of having a tower that's kind of away from being in the middle of anything or on the top of things, like on the top of buildings or something like that. +[2617.00 --> 2620.00] You now have to have these boxes freaking everywhere. +[2620.00 --> 2623.00] So figuring out where they can put it and stuff like that could be an issue. +[2623.00 --> 2628.00] That is one of the biggest, that is one of the biggest logistical challenges I see with something like this. +[2628.00 --> 2638.00] Because at least the thing about a cell tower is, yes, it's a process to get the permits and get it built and buy the land and whatever else you have to do. +[2638.00 --> 2640.00] But it's one project. +[2640.00 --> 2649.00] Whereas, I mean, if you've ever tried to do any kind of project management, even something as simple as planning a kid's birthday party. +[2649.00 --> 2661.00] If all you had to do was invite like one kid, but like it's complicated and you have to like go to their parents house and, you know, prove that you're going to be feeding them, you know, a vegan diet and they're going to have a nap at 3.30 and whatever else. +[2661.00 --> 2673.00] You're doing one thing. Whereas if you have to invite a hundred kids, even if it's as simple as emailing them all and then managing the email responses, it's still a ton of work. +[2673.00 --> 2679.00] So we have the results for our straw poll, by the way. There you go. 5% said yes. +[2679.00 --> 2687.00] So a lot more than the not necessarily hardcores on Time Warner service. So I don't think our poll is accurate. +[2687.00 --> 2693.00] Yeah, I don't think so. I wasn't really expecting it to. I mean, there's a lot of uncertainties with the new technology. +[2693.00 --> 2701.00] The idea is you could combine the signal for many P waves to get a full signal at all time. They cost less. They're smaller. +[2701.00 --> 2703.00] Of course they're going to cost less. +[2703.00 --> 2710.00] There will be an initial rollout in Q4 2014 in San Francisco. So I guess it just kind of remains to be seen. +[2710.00 --> 2717.00] It theoretically will use less power. Although if you're running a phone that is natively LTE, you won't see any of the power savings. +[2717.00 --> 2720.00] You need a native P cell phone to see the power savings. +[2720.00 --> 2724.00] But LTE phones will work on P cell networks in theory. +[2724.00 --> 2730.00] Which is actually really cool. So you could take advantage of this now. The speed though, not necessarily the coverage. +[2730.00 --> 2732.00] And the coverage. And the coverage. +[2732.00 --> 2737.00] I mean, especially coverage in places where they just can't justify a massive tower project. +[2737.00 --> 2738.00] Yeah. +[2738.00 --> 2739.00] Makes a ton of sense. +[2739.00 --> 2742.00] Actually, we have one more infrastructure improvement thing here. +[2742.00 --> 2756.00] This is a collaboration between Brazil and the EU that is basically just a direct response to spying by the NSA on foreign dignitaries. +[2756.00 --> 2771.00] And this is like spying on their allies. And one of the comments in the article, which I just found laughable, is that President Obama has since banned spying on the, you know, spying on close allies. +[2771.00 --> 2777.00] I'm just like, or you could, like, there are so many. +[2777.00 --> 2784.00] One, there's no way that's actually true. He's probably publicly banned it and it's still totally happening. +[2784.00 --> 2789.00] Um, two, I don't know. That's all I really have to say about that. +[2789.00 --> 2796.00] One thing that I noticed with this article is, hasn't Brazil been flamed recently for spying on their residents anyways? +[2796.00 --> 2799.00] So this is like, hooray. +[2799.00 --> 2802.00] We don't want other people spying on you. +[2802.00 --> 2805.00] Only we get to spy on you, citizens. +[2805.00 --> 2808.00] So it's a $185 million project. +[2808.00 --> 2812.00] Um, it's going to be a joint project between some various ISPs. +[2812.00 --> 2816.00] And, uh, it's going to basically the only existing line right now. +[2816.00 --> 2818.00] So it'll run from, hold on a second. +[2818.00 --> 2821.00] I forget. +[2821.00 --> 2825.00] Whoever, whoever wrote this down forgot to say where it actually runs from. +[2825.00 --> 2827.00] Ah, there we go. Lisbon to Fortezela. +[2827.00 --> 2834.00] And, uh, the only existing line between Brazil and the EU is so slow that it's only used for voice communication. +[2834.00 --> 2840.00] So, you know what? I mean, infrastructure upgrades in general, you know, is never a bad thing. +[2840.00 --> 2851.00] And it's really interesting to see how quickly the US is losing its very tight grip over its position as the hub of the entire internet. +[2851.00 --> 2855.00] Interesting. Um, what is it? Ukraine is dealing with Russia right now. +[2855.00 --> 2856.00] Mm-hmm. +[2856.00 --> 2859.00] Um, server hosting has been hopping out really quickly. +[2859.00 --> 2860.00] Right. +[2860.00 --> 2866.00] So like server hosting for different games and stuff has been hopping out and you would expect, oh, they might go to the States or somewhere like that. +[2866.00 --> 2867.00] None. +[2868.00 --> 2870.00] We've even seen some of them hop to Canada. +[2871.00 --> 2873.00] Who hops their server hosting to Canada? +[2873.00 --> 2874.00] Yeah. +[2874.00 --> 2875.00] No one. +[2875.00 --> 2876.00] Those people apparently. +[2876.00 --> 2877.00] Yeah. +[2877.00 --> 2878.00] Not to the States though. +[2878.00 --> 2879.00] Like, ugh. +[2879.00 --> 2885.00] I mean, it goes to show you, you know, power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. +[2885.00 --> 2889.00] I know it's been said over and over and over again, but that doesn't make it any less true. +[2889.00 --> 2896.00] As soon as someone is in a position where they can control something, they'll abuse it. Every time. +[2896.00 --> 2898.00] Not necessarily every time. +[2898.00 --> 2901.00] At some point, someone will abuse it. +[2901.00 --> 2904.00] It's a high possibility, I'd say. +[2904.00 --> 2907.00] I don't think everyone is inherently bad. +[2907.00 --> 2908.00] Except for Linus. +[2908.00 --> 2909.00] I'm not inherently bad. +[2909.00 --> 2910.00] See, there you go. +[2910.00 --> 2911.00] Now you're agreeing with me. +[2911.00 --> 2914.00] We agreed I was chaotic neutral. +[2914.00 --> 2916.00] Or was I lawful neutral? +[2916.00 --> 2917.00] I don't remember what we- +[2917.00 --> 2918.00] No, you were chaotic neutral. +[2918.00 --> 2919.00] I was chaotic neutral. +[2919.00 --> 2920.00] Edsel thought you were lawful neutral. +[2920.00 --> 2930.00] Yeah, Edsel figured that I was, um, oh, no, I think you said I was lawful evil. +[2930.00 --> 2932.00] And then we agreed I was- +[2932.00 --> 2933.00] Yes, no, I said lawful evil, yeah. +[2933.00 --> 2936.00] And then we agreed I was chaotic. +[2936.00 --> 2945.00] But then I think Edsel figured I was lawful because I operate based on a set of rules, even if it's not necessarily everyone else's rules. +[2945.00 --> 2949.00] I'm like, uh, I'm like that, uh, the kid and family guy. +[2949.00 --> 2951.00] I don't play by anyone's rules except my own. +[2951.00 --> 2954.00] Your whole piracy stance is a little weird now. +[2954.00 --> 2955.00] My piracy stance is weird? +[2955.00 --> 2956.00] Yeah. +[2956.00 --> 2957.00] Yeah, it's probably weird. +[2957.00 --> 2958.00] All right, so Tesla- +[2958.00 --> 2960.00] I still think you're lawful evil. +[2960.00 --> 2969.00] Was banned in New Jersey, not from selling cars, but from selling them directly to customers. +[2969.00 --> 2971.00] Which is how they sell cars. +[2971.00 --> 2973.00] Which is how they sell cars. +[2973.00 --> 2975.00] So they've been kind of banned from selling cars. +[2975.00 --> 2978.00] Now, you could take either stance on this. +[2978.00 --> 2982.00] Okay, why don't you give the overview and then I'm gonna kind of jump in and make everyone mad. +[2982.00 --> 2983.00] Oh, really? +[2983.00 --> 2985.00] Yeah, I'm gonna do that. +[2985.00 --> 2986.00] Just- just- +[2986.00 --> 2989.00] Uh, I don't even have the topic up, but essentially- +[2989.00 --> 2990.00] Oh, there it is. +[2990.00 --> 2993.00] Um, essentially cars can be sold by dealerships, so there has to be a middleman. +[2993.00 --> 2995.00] Uh, you know how dealerships work. +[2995.00 --> 2998.00] It's usually like the guy's name who opened the dealership. +[2998.00 --> 3001.00] And then, like, Chrysler or- +[3001.00 --> 3002.00] O'Shea Chevrolet. +[3002.00 --> 3003.00] Or- +[3003.00 --> 3005.00] And big thumbs up to anyone who gets that reference. +[3005.00 --> 3006.00] Go ahead. +[3006.00 --> 3008.00] Or- or- or whatever else, right? +[3008.00 --> 3010.00] Like, that's often how car dealerships are done. +[3010.00 --> 3012.00] Or other ways or whatever. +[3012.00 --> 3013.00] But there's always a car dealership. +[3013.00 --> 3016.00] You don't usually order- like, mail order a car. +[3016.00 --> 3017.00] Or order it online. +[3017.00 --> 3019.00] But that's how Tesla does it. +[3019.00 --> 3021.00] And they've banned that in New Jersey. +[3021.00 --> 3025.00] You have to have a dealership which isn't yours as far as I know. +[3025.00 --> 3026.00] Yeah. +[3026.00 --> 3030.00] Like, someone else has to open a dealership for your cars and then buy them from you essentially. +[3030.00 --> 3031.00] Yeah. +[3031.00 --> 3034.00] Um, so Texas and Arizona have the same law. +[3034.00 --> 3037.00] However, New Jersey is- been becoming a big hub for luxury cars. +[3037.00 --> 3039.00] And Tesla is luxury cars. +[3039.00 --> 3040.00] So Tesla wants to be there. +[3040.00 --> 3041.00] Because they want to be able to sell their cars. +[3041.00 --> 3042.00] Which makes tons of sense. +[3042.00 --> 3049.00] Um, Tesla is claiming- it's- claiming- I can talk- that it is an affront to the very +[3049.00 --> 3050.00] concept of a free market. +[3050.00 --> 3052.00] And I agree. +[3052.00 --> 3055.00] But, they also say it isn't just about cutting out the middleman. +[3055.00 --> 3059.00] It also wants to give buyers an experience. +[3059.00 --> 3062.00] To which I would say, BS. +[3062.00 --> 3064.00] It is about cutting out the middleman. +[3064.00 --> 3068.00] Whether- like- okay, well if you agree with that then we have nothing to argue about. +[3068.00 --> 3073.00] Because Tesla's concern here is strictly self-interest. +[3073.00 --> 3078.00] It has nothing to do with a better experience for the customer necessarily. +[3078.00 --> 3080.00] Well, I'm sure- I'm sure there's some of that. +[3080.00 --> 3084.00] Because if they can give a better experience and it's more premier and they can control the +[3084.00 --> 3085.00] whole thing- Can they- +[3085.00 --> 3086.00] They can charge more. +[3086.00 --> 3087.00] Well- +[3087.00 --> 3090.00] There's- there's always profit behind the idea. +[3090.00 --> 3091.00] Okay. +[3091.00 --> 3095.00] But creating a better experience for your customer creates a premier shopping experience, which +[3095.00 --> 3097.00] is literally some of the target audience- +[3097.00 --> 3105.00] And- I mean, they have the option- okay, I agree with Tesla that they shouldn't be banned, +[3105.00 --> 3111.00] but I think a middle ground might have been that New Jersey could say, okay, well then you're +[3111.00 --> 3118.00] gonna have to open up negotiations with X number of dealerships per square, whatever +[3118.00 --> 3123.00] mileage, to have the option to sell your cars and you're gonna have to offer them a reasonable +[3123.00 --> 3125.00] margin structure and all that stuff. +[3125.00 --> 3132.00] And if you can provide a better shopping experience your way, then customers will have a free market +[3132.00 --> 3133.00] right to choose. +[3133.00 --> 3136.00] I still don't understand why they're banning that though. +[3136.00 --> 3137.00] That still doesn't make any sense. +[3137.00 --> 3138.00] That's stupid. +[3138.00 --> 3139.00] The banning makes no sense. +[3139.00 --> 3140.00] Yeah, that's retarded. +[3140.00 --> 3145.00] But for them to- but to protect an industry that is very, very important to the local +[3145.00 --> 3151.00] economy, I understand even if I don't necessarily agree with, I do understand it and I understand- +[3151.00 --> 3153.00] But then he's totally right. +[3153.00 --> 3155.00] It's- yeah, it's an affront to the concept of a free market. +[3155.00 --> 3156.00] Totally agree. +[3156.00 --> 3157.00] Yeah. +[3157.00 --> 3160.00] The part that I was upset about was that Tesla was saying that it wasn't about cutting +[3160.00 --> 3161.00] out the middleman, which it absolutely is. +[3161.00 --> 3162.00] Yeah. +[3162.00 --> 3164.00] I mean, it's all about cutting out the middleman. +[3164.00 --> 3165.00] And look at- +[3165.00 --> 3168.00] He says it's not- it isn't just about. +[3168.00 --> 3170.00] It's very carefully worded. +[3170.00 --> 3171.00] Yes, it is. +[3171.00 --> 3173.00] And yes it is just about cutting out the middleman. +[3173.00 --> 3176.00] I mean, look how- I- like- okay, I'm gonna- +[3176.00 --> 3179.00] It's not just- it's just mostly. +[3179.00 --> 3183.00] I'll- I'll pull up Apple as an example here. +[3183.00 --> 3184.00] Okay. +[3184.00 --> 3187.00] Apple stores deliver a better experience than Best Buy. +[3187.00 --> 3189.00] Have you ever shopped at an Apple store? +[3189.00 --> 3191.00] Uh, I haven't shopped there. +[3191.00 --> 3192.00] I've been inside an Apple store though. +[3192.00 --> 3193.00] Okay. +[3193.00 --> 3194.00] With someone who was shopping. +[3194.00 --> 3196.00] I've- I've bought stuff there. +[3196.00 --> 3197.00] I have gone through service there. +[3197.00 --> 3200.00] I've gone through their service because my girlfriend at the time had to repair her iPhone. +[3200.00 --> 3201.00] Okay. +[3201.00 --> 3202.00] Outstanding experience. +[3202.00 --> 3209.00] You feel like you're in like this, you know, zone where you're gonna be helped and it's like very futuristic. +[3209.00 --> 3211.00] The one thing that I did really like- +[3211.00 --> 3212.00] Yeah. +[3212.00 --> 3215.00] Is that we never got approached by someone in the way that you get approached going to- +[3215.00 --> 3216.00] That's right. +[3216.00 --> 3219.00] To Feature Shop or for people not in Canada, Best Buy or something like that. +[3219.00 --> 3220.00] That's right. +[3220.00 --> 3221.00] Because I didn't feel like I was being hounded. +[3221.00 --> 3222.00] Yeah. +[3222.00 --> 3225.00] More than once I had someone come up and ask me how my day was. +[3225.00 --> 3227.00] And I was like, that's an interesting intro. +[3227.00 --> 3228.00] I've worked in retail before. +[3228.00 --> 3231.00] No one has ever told me to start with that. +[3231.00 --> 3234.00] Um, so I would talk to him for a little bit about like random stuff. +[3234.00 --> 3237.00] Then he's like, is there anything I can help you guys with? +[3237.00 --> 3240.00] Like, and she saw that- he saw that she was holding her phone. +[3240.00 --> 3241.00] He's like, is it broken? +[3241.00 --> 3242.00] And I was like, yeah, we're having problems with it. +[3242.00 --> 3244.00] So he's like, alright, I'll be back in a sec. +[3244.00 --> 3246.00] Tesla goes and grabs the tech and has the same intro. +[3246.00 --> 3247.00] Yep. +[3247.00 --> 3248.00] They have a service first approach. +[3248.00 --> 3249.00] Which I thought was cool. +[3249.00 --> 3250.00] And so if Tesla- +[3250.00 --> 3251.00] Still hate their stuff. +[3251.00 --> 3258.00] With a service first approach can effectively out-compete car dealerships, then great. +[3258.00 --> 3263.00] But I don't think they should be forced to allow to sell their cars to other dealerships. +[3263.00 --> 3266.00] That doesn't- that's against the free market thing. +[3266.00 --> 3269.00] That is, when I said retarded, I was being very literal. +[3269.00 --> 3270.00] That's very backwards. +[3270.00 --> 3271.00] Okay. +[3271.00 --> 3272.00] That is pulling back. +[3272.00 --> 3274.00] I didn't say that was the right solution though. +[3274.00 --> 3276.00] I said it would be a middle ground. +[3276.00 --> 3280.00] But it's a bad- that's a middle ground where there should not be a middle ground. +[3280.00 --> 3282.00] There should only be the one side. +[3282.00 --> 3284.00] Sometimes the world is about baby steps. +[3284.00 --> 3285.00] And people- +[3285.00 --> 3287.00] This is baby steps in the wrong direction. +[3287.00 --> 3288.00] No, no. +[3288.00 --> 3289.00] Okay, hold on. +[3289.00 --> 3290.00] Hold on. +[3290.00 --> 3291.00] Okay. +[3291.00 --> 3292.00] Well, okay. +[3292.00 --> 3297.00] So right now, what exists is a law that you may not run your own dealership. +[3297.00 --> 3298.00] Yes. +[3298.00 --> 3299.00] You're saying, okay. +[3299.00 --> 3300.00] I'm saying it's a baby step. +[3300.00 --> 3301.00] I see. +[3301.00 --> 3302.00] Towards the right direction. +[3302.00 --> 3303.00] Yeah. +[3303.00 --> 3305.00] And it's better than just saying, no. +[3305.00 --> 3306.00] Yeah. +[3306.00 --> 3307.00] Yeah. +[3307.00 --> 3310.00] Because I'm applying my- when I was saying it's backwards, I was applying my logic to before +[3310.00 --> 3311.00] this law existed. +[3311.00 --> 3314.00] You're talking about what we have to do now that it's already here. +[3314.00 --> 3315.00] So I- yeah. +[3315.00 --> 3317.00] That makes more sense. +[3317.00 --> 3318.00] Ugh. +[3318.00 --> 3321.00] It's just like, why stop them? +[3321.00 --> 3328.00] Because it's- it's- it's an established- it's an established part of the local economy. +[3328.00 --> 3329.00] It is. +[3329.00 --> 3334.00] And you can talk about how that's part of the economy and what kinds of kickbacks exist +[3334.00 --> 3335.00] where- I was gonna say oil. +[3335.00 --> 3336.00] I don't say oil. +[3336.00 --> 3341.00] But it's established and it takes baby steps to change something. +[3341.00 --> 3349.00] You're not gonna be able to walk in and replace VHS with digital downloads overnight. +[3349.00 --> 3350.00] It took us, what, 15 years? +[3350.00 --> 3351.00] That's how long it takes sometimes. +[3351.00 --> 3355.00] Yeah, but there wasn't laws in place stopping people from selling DVDs. +[3355.00 --> 3361.00] No, but there's all kinds of legislative issues associated with streaming videos online. +[3361.00 --> 3363.00] And we're still working our way through that. +[3363.00 --> 3367.00] It- we go through this every time there's a shift in technology that means that someone +[3367.00 --> 3371.00] is not making the money that they're used to making and really like making. +[3371.00 --> 3372.00] That's all. +[3372.00 --> 3373.00] Yeah. +[3373.00 --> 3376.00] But I also wonder if it's not even just the dealerships though. +[3376.00 --> 3380.00] Like, is this another step from big oil to try and stop electrical cars from being sold? +[3380.00 --> 3381.00] I don't know. +[3381.00 --> 3382.00] I mean- +[3382.00 --> 3384.00] Everything in the states somehow comes back to big oil. +[3384.00 --> 3391.00] Ever since the NSA thing broke, I have not been able to just say, ah, that's just a conspiracy +[3391.00 --> 3392.00] theory anymore. +[3392.00 --> 3395.00] Yeah, I know. +[3395.00 --> 3397.00] It's horrible. +[3397.00 --> 3398.00] Everything sucks. +[3398.00 --> 3399.00] Anyways, yeah. +[3399.00 --> 3405.00] On that note, Verizon wants to charge- this was a topic we talked about last week. +[3405.00 --> 3406.00] You know what? +[3406.00 --> 3407.00] We talked about it briefly. +[3407.00 --> 3408.00] Okay. +[3408.00 --> 3410.00] Yeah, I don't want to jump into that. +[3410.00 --> 3412.00] Okay, let's talk good news. +[3412.00 --> 3417.00] Osweil E and X99 look like the schedule has been stepped up. +[3417.00 --> 3423.00] This was posted by Milner Fred and the original article is from Kit Guru. +[3423.00 --> 3428.00] And so we are looking at potentially a Q2 launch- what's that? +[3428.00 --> 3429.00] Oh, yeah. +[3429.00 --> 3434.00] A Q2 launch on the LGA 2011-3 socket. +[3434.00 --> 3435.00] Like, really Intel? +[3435.00 --> 3437.00] Just call it like, just call it like, socket Blackbeard. +[3437.00 --> 3438.00] Isn't it? +[3438.00 --> 3439.00] Like, I don't know. +[3439.00 --> 3440.00] Something cool. +[3440.00 --> 3441.00] Yeah. +[3441.00 --> 3446.00] So on a new socket from Intel, we're going to be looking at up to 20 megs of level 3 cache, +[3446.00 --> 3462.00] quad-channel DDR4 memory, 4D integrated PCI Express 3.0 lanes, and then I believe the rumor on the street- although I haven't seen any kind of confirmation of this- is that the Extreme Edition will be an octocore. +[3462.00 --> 3463.00] Finally! +[3463.00 --> 3468.00] So that's extremely exciting and I am very, very happy about that. +[3468.00 --> 3471.00] Is it only the Extreme Edition and not the highest-end K edition? +[3471.00 --> 3472.00] No idea. +[3472.00 --> 3473.00] Okay. +[3473.00 --> 3474.00] Not sure. +[3474.00 --> 3482.00] If they keep with their- what they've done for the last two gens, then it will be the Extreme Edition and the like $600 piece. +[3482.00 --> 3496.00] But, going back to when they first launched 6 cores with Gulftown and the 980X, so if we go to when they first launch a new number of cores, and when they first launched quad-core, +[3496.00 --> 3504.00] quad-core was for an entire generation Extreme Edition only, and 6-core was for an entire generation Extreme Edition only. +[3504.00 --> 3505.00] Yeah. +[3505.00 --> 3506.00] So, we'll see. +[3506.00 --> 3509.00] So maybe I will be waiting for the next version. +[3509.00 --> 3510.00] Yeah. +[3510.00 --> 3512.00] Because remember, I was like, I might- okay, yeah, anyways. +[3512.00 --> 3519.00] So, very flexible tuning and overclocking capabilities are what they're saying, but I think that basically just means they'll all be unlocked. +[3519.00 --> 3526.00] I don't think that's going to mean anything in terms of actual overclocking ability compared to Haswell on LGA 1150. +[3526.00 --> 3527.00] Yeah. +[3527.00 --> 3528.00] I'd love to be wrong. +[3528.00 --> 3531.00] Yeah, because it's not been fantastic for a little while now. +[3531.00 --> 3541.00] We're going to get six USB 3.0 ports, we're going to get 10 SATA 3.6 gigabit per second ports, no SATA Express, which is an interesting omission. +[3541.00 --> 3543.00] I mean, I would love to see an Intel chipset. +[3543.00 --> 3545.00] Is there actually anywhere saying no? +[3545.00 --> 3546.00] No. +[3546.00 --> 3547.00] Okay. +[3547.00 --> 3548.00] So maybe I'm wrong. +[3548.00 --> 3558.00] And maybe, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if we see SATA Express being implemented with third-party controllers and then utilizing those 40 PCIe 3.0 lanes. +[3558.00 --> 3559.00] Yeah. +[3559.00 --> 3563.00] But I don't see any guarantee that it's happening, and I would have liked to see a native solution. +[3563.00 --> 3564.00] Yeah. +[3564.00 --> 3568.00] Because I think you and I are very much on the same page as this- on this. +[3568.00 --> 3576.00] Third-party chipsets are okay, but if I can use an Intel LAN controller, an Intel USB controller, they just- +[3576.00 --> 3577.00] Even just the drivers. +[3577.00 --> 3578.00] It just works. +[3578.00 --> 3587.00] I've been so big about drivers lately because I'm testing stuff all the time and swapping benches and doing all this kind of stuff, and like when I did that recent platform swap, I was like, it was fantastic. +[3587.00 --> 3588.00] It just worked. +[3588.00 --> 3591.00] That's one of the nice things about having native stuff. +[3591.00 --> 3596.00] And other good news, Google slashed prices on Google Drive. +[3596.00 --> 3599.00] So let's go ahead and head over there. +[3599.00 --> 3600.00] So, um- +[3600.00 --> 3605.00] I did a few comparisons, and some of these comparisons were in the news articles, but not all of them. +[3605.00 --> 3611.00] My favorite one was actually a comparison that I didn't see anywhere else, which was comparing to the launch prices for Drive. +[3611.00 --> 3612.00] Oh yeah. +[3612.00 --> 3615.00] So the launch prices for Drive were- +[3615.00 --> 3617.00] Wow, awesome. +[3617.00 --> 3618.00] Yeah, there we go. +[3618.00 --> 3621.00] 5 gigabytes for free, 25 gigabytes for $2.50. +[3621.00 --> 3625.00] So I see people going for either the free version or the One Step Up mainly. +[3625.00 --> 3634.00] So now it is four times the data for 50 cents less, because it is $1.99 for 100 gigabytes. +[3634.00 --> 3635.00] And that's per month? +[3635.00 --> 3640.00] And it was $2.50 for- or $2.49, sorry, specifically, for 25 gigs. +[3640.00 --> 3645.00] So you're getting four times the data for 50 cents less. +[3645.00 --> 3648.00] It's actually pretty solid for two years. +[3648.00 --> 3650.00] Like, you expect it to get better. +[3650.00 --> 3652.00] You don't necessarily expect it to get cheaper. +[3652.00 --> 3654.00] But you do expect there to be more, hopefully. +[3654.00 --> 3655.00] Yeah. +[3655.00 --> 3659.00] But they've done four times the amount in two years for less, which is kind of awesome. +[3659.00 --> 3667.00] And then $10 for 1 terabyte, and starting at $100 for 10 terabytes or more of Google Drive storage. +[3667.00 --> 3671.00] I mean, the future is going to be fantastic, eh? +[3671.00 --> 3678.00] If you could pay, you know, like let's say, okay, so let's say another 10 years down the road, or another five years down the road, or whatever. +[3678.00 --> 3685.00] Let's say we get another 10x increase in the storage space, or whatever, you know, it happens to be. +[3685.00 --> 3695.00] If you have a Google Fiber account at that point, you will actually have a 100 megabyte per second connection to terabytes of storage. +[3695.00 --> 3697.00] You will not need local storage anymore. +[3697.00 --> 3701.00] But personally, and I think a lot of other people still will. +[3701.00 --> 3704.00] And there are still a lot of arguments for personal cloud versus cloud storage. +[3704.00 --> 3705.00] And you know what? +[3705.00 --> 3709.00] I see a lot of people going the route that we have, which is where you just have both. +[3709.00 --> 3710.00] Yeah. +[3710.00 --> 3714.00] You have public cloud storage for stuff that isn't super important. +[3714.00 --> 3719.00] And, well, it could still be important if it's on the cloud, but isn't super, like, personal. +[3719.00 --> 3720.00] Yeah. +[3720.00 --> 3721.00] And then that you can access really easily. +[3721.00 --> 3723.00] You want to be able to access it all the time, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[3723.00 --> 3728.00] And then very personal stuff, you store on your own kind of cloud thingy with a NAS. +[3728.00 --> 3729.00] There's free NAS. +[3729.00 --> 3730.00] There's tons of other things out there. +[3730.00 --> 3742.00] And especially with computers lasting for so long these days, if you upgrade your computer down the line, you can still use your old computer, install free NAS, and then have, like, a beast NAS for relatively nothing. +[3742.00 --> 3745.00] That's actually a really great way to set up a NAS. +[3745.00 --> 3755.00] If you're not concerned with getting a really nice prepackaged software suite, like Synology's DSM, and you're willing to do the work yourself, you can build a NAS on the cheap. +[3755.00 --> 3756.00] Yeah. +[3756.00 --> 3758.00] With, like, old parts on eBay or whatever. +[3758.00 --> 3761.00] And get just beastly performance. +[3761.00 --> 3766.00] And, you know, and it can have so much more functionality, like the ability to... +[3766.00 --> 3768.00] I just found out that Emit has a web plan. +[3768.00 --> 3769.00] Really? +[3769.00 --> 3770.00] Yeah. +[3770.00 --> 3775.00] So you could stream video and music to yourself through Emit over the web. +[3775.00 --> 3776.00] It's not going to be as, like, clean and... +[3776.00 --> 3777.00] It's not great. +[3777.00 --> 3778.00] Yeah. +[3778.00 --> 3782.00] It won't be as clean and shiny as a prepackaged solution like DSM or whatever. +[3782.00 --> 3784.00] But you can do it for... +[3784.00 --> 3786.00] It's called free NAS. +[3786.00 --> 3788.00] So I guess you can figure it out. +[3788.00 --> 3790.00] I don't know. +[3790.00 --> 3791.00] I don't know. +[3791.00 --> 3792.00] Alright. +[3792.00 --> 3793.00] So this is neither good nor bad. +[3793.00 --> 3798.00] Google has removed underlined links from their search results. +[3798.00 --> 3799.00] So if you... +[3799.00 --> 3800.00] Here, I'm just gonna... +[3800.00 --> 3801.00] I'm just gonna blow this up. +[3801.00 --> 3805.00] So you can see that the blue one is underlined. +[3805.00 --> 3811.00] And then if you click the image, you can see what a new search looks like, where it is no longer underlined. +[3811.00 --> 3813.00] Oh. +[3813.00 --> 3816.00] I actually think it's more interesting than you do. +[3816.00 --> 3818.00] My favorite part was that was a legitimate yawn. +[3818.00 --> 3819.00] Okay. +[3819.00 --> 3820.00] Okay. +[3820.00 --> 3823.00] The original article is from The Verge, by the way. +[3823.00 --> 3824.00] And you know what? +[3824.00 --> 3827.00] I actually... +[3827.00 --> 3829.00] I like underlined links. +[3829.00 --> 3831.00] Me too, because it's very obviously a link. +[3831.00 --> 3835.00] But I have noticed over time... +[3835.00 --> 3836.00] No one really does it anymore. +[3836.00 --> 3837.00] That no one really does it anymore. +[3837.00 --> 3838.00] So it doesn't matter. +[3838.00 --> 3841.00] And so much of the internet experience is clickable. +[3841.00 --> 3847.00] And the web design has gotten so much better in terms of making things look clicky. +[3847.00 --> 3848.00] Yeah. +[3848.00 --> 3849.00] That I guess it's okay. +[3849.00 --> 3851.00] But if they do away with blue for hyperlinks... +[3851.00 --> 3852.00] That's... +[3852.00 --> 3853.00] Yeah. +[3853.00 --> 3854.00] I don't see that coming anytime soon, though. +[3854.00 --> 3856.00] Look at our Google Drive right now. +[3856.00 --> 3857.00] Yes. +[3857.00 --> 3858.00] The clickable links are blue. +[3858.00 --> 3861.00] Every clickable link everywhere is blue. +[3861.00 --> 3862.00] Yeah. +[3862.00 --> 3864.00] I don't see the blue going away anytime soon. +[3864.00 --> 3866.00] I wouldn't be too worried about that. +[3866.00 --> 3867.00] All right. +[3867.00 --> 3870.00] So this article is on time.com. +[3870.00 --> 3873.00] And Google will start encrypting your searches. +[3873.00 --> 3874.00] Now, I'm gonna do the... +[3874.00 --> 3879.00] I'm gonna do the fairy tales and butterflies and sparkles version of this. +[3879.00 --> 3881.00] And then I'll let you do the... +[3881.00 --> 3882.00] Like... +[3882.00 --> 3883.00] The cane version of this. +[3883.00 --> 3884.00] The gloom and doom. +[3884.00 --> 3885.00] Yeah. +[3885.00 --> 3886.00] All right. +[3886.00 --> 3892.00] So the good news here is that this will make it more difficult for your data to be intercepted +[3892.00 --> 3893.00] by third parties. +[3893.00 --> 3898.00] And, of course, the Edward Snowden leaks are a big part of why all this is happening right +[3898.00 --> 3899.00] now. +[3899.00 --> 3904.00] Because Google doesn't want their customers' information being stolen. +[3904.00 --> 3909.00] Another big, awesome, happy time thing about this is that it can potentially allow them +[3909.00 --> 3913.00] to circumvent censorship and make the internet more free. +[3913.00 --> 3920.00] Because it will not allow ISPs or other intermediaries to not only steal the data, but even know what +[3920.00 --> 3921.00] the heck it is. +[3921.00 --> 3925.00] So a more encrypted internet is better. +[3925.00 --> 3931.00] And they say the reason that they're doing this is to encourage other companies to take +[3931.00 --> 3934.00] a more security-minded approach to what they're doing. +[3934.00 --> 3936.00] Now let's get the sort of... +[3936.00 --> 3938.00] What they're doing part. +[3938.00 --> 3945.00] They're saving their profit margins because they can do this to help protect against ISPs replacing ads +[3945.00 --> 3947.00] and gathering data on their customers, which is... +[3947.00 --> 3949.00] Talk about what that is. +[3949.00 --> 3951.00] What is ISPs replacing ads? +[3951.00 --> 3953.00] ISPs can detect ads. +[3953.00 --> 3955.00] Adblock can detect ads. +[3955.00 --> 3956.00] Ads are incredibly easy to detect. +[3956.00 --> 3960.00] And an ISP could remove that ad and input their own. +[3960.00 --> 3965.00] Therefore, taking all of the profit for that and screwing with customers, essentially. +[3965.00 --> 3968.00] And potentially making websites a lot worse. +[3968.00 --> 3972.00] Like if an ISP is injecting ads, like we were talking about earlier, like the Pirate Bay does, +[3972.00 --> 3974.00] no one's going to want to go to your website. +[3974.00 --> 3976.00] I don't think they would do that. +[3976.00 --> 3978.00] I don't think they would either, but it's... +[3978.00 --> 3983.00] But, even if they were injecting ads that we're not approving, like linustechtips.com has ads, +[3983.00 --> 3987.00] but we refuse to have things like those splash screen ads. +[3987.00 --> 3989.00] We don't want any that have sound. +[3989.00 --> 3990.00] Like we have guidelines. +[3990.00 --> 3992.00] And we can blacklist ones that we don't like. +[3992.00 --> 4000.00] Whereas if our ISP or your ISP was just injecting crap, we can't control the web experience of our users. +[4000.00 --> 4001.00] And that's not right. +[4001.00 --> 4009.00] And like, okay, what if you are a religious website and you get ads for a religious dating site, +[4009.00 --> 4012.00] which is not the religion that your website is? +[4012.00 --> 4013.00] Right. +[4013.00 --> 4014.00] This is awkward. +[4014.00 --> 4018.00] So if you had like a Christian site and they didn't, and it was like, you know, +[4018.00 --> 4019.00] find Muslim singles or whatever. +[4019.00 --> 4020.00] Sure. +[4020.00 --> 4022.00] And none of these are necessarily bad things. +[4022.00 --> 4023.00] It's just not a very good match. +[4023.00 --> 4025.00] It's just like, why is that there? +[4025.00 --> 4026.00] Yeah. +[4026.00 --> 4027.00] So yeah. +[4027.00 --> 4030.00] And then, and then collecting data on you, which is what they do. +[4030.00 --> 4031.00] And then they sell that. +[4031.00 --> 4033.00] So the ISP won't be able to do that. +[4033.00 --> 4036.00] And then they have more market share in that area. +[4036.00 --> 4042.00] Mind you, if, if they're so, okay, I guess that aligns with what they said about Google +[4042.00 --> 4044.00] Fiber where they don't want to be an ISP. +[4044.00 --> 4050.00] They just want the ISPs to sit in the corner like little children and do what they're told +[4050.00 --> 4054.00] and collect no data and just plug the thing into the thing and then transfer the thing to the thing. +[4054.00 --> 4059.00] That's why Google has no interest in being an ISP because there's absolutely no value in it whatsoever. +[4059.00 --> 4062.00] And they are determined to take all of the value out of it. +[4062.00 --> 4063.00] Yep. +[4063.00 --> 4069.00] So I hope that they have to become an ISP because I'd rather have Google Fiber. +[4069.00 --> 4070.00] Anyways. +[4070.00 --> 4071.00] Yeah. +[4071.00 --> 4072.00] So there's that. +[4072.00 --> 4077.00] Another thing is, whoa, my thing just went totally away from that article. +[4077.00 --> 4078.00] Yes. +[4078.00 --> 4084.00] Oh, I don't remember where it went, but it's not a hundred percent security either. +[4084.00 --> 4086.00] I don't know where the article is, but I'm just going to wing this. +[4086.00 --> 4090.00] It's not a hundred percent security either, which is something fairly important. +[4090.00 --> 4094.00] They've been talking about, they started doing this in China. +[4094.00 --> 4098.00] I believe they moved their offices in China to Hong Kong and I believe 2010. +[4098.00 --> 4100.00] That's actually what I was looking for in the doc. +[4100.00 --> 4105.00] But I believe that's how it's done from Beijing to Hong Kong, which is Hong Kong is now a part of China again, +[4105.00 --> 4107.00] but it's still semi-autonomous. +[4107.00 --> 4111.00] So they dodged that and they started encrypting searches in China already. +[4111.00 --> 4115.00] Um, but they're scared that people are going to think that's a hundred percent security. +[4115.00 --> 4116.00] Right. +[4116.00 --> 4117.00] Because it's not a hundred percent security. +[4117.00 --> 4118.00] It's nothing is. +[4118.00 --> 4119.00] It helps you. +[4119.00 --> 4125.00] It's not, if you start searching very incriminating things, whether or not that incriminating thing +[4125.00 --> 4127.00] should be incriminated or not, it doesn't matter. +[4127.00 --> 4131.00] If you start searching those incriminating things, people could still potentially find it. +[4131.00 --> 4138.00] So don't, don't just be like, yeah, Google searches are encrypted now, which they're not yet probably, probably where you are. +[4138.00 --> 4145.00] Um, but once that happens, don't just think you're behind the iron wall because you're not necessarily. +[4145.00 --> 4154.00] Which actually leads into our first sponsor integration pretty, uh, handily, because if you're looking for something that goes that, okay, +[4154.00 --> 4160.00] encryption is not the answer by itself and a VPN is not the answer by itself, but these are both steps that you can take. +[4160.00 --> 4166.00] To deliver a more secure online experience for yourself. +[4166.00 --> 4167.00] So hotspot shield. +[4167.00 --> 4169.00] Thanks to them for sponsoring the show today. +[4169.00 --> 4174.00] And our message from them is that it's all about access. +[4174.00 --> 4181.00] So what a VPN does hotspot shield included, and we recommend their elite service because even though it's paid for, +[4181.00 --> 4189.00] it has a lot less of the obnoxious stuff that you'll find with their free version, as well as any other ad supported VPN. +[4189.00 --> 4192.00] Um, from what we've seen, I've actually seen a lot of threads on the forum about this. +[4192.00 --> 4194.00] What's the best free VPN? +[4194.00 --> 4197.00] And the answer is kind of like, there isn't really one. +[4197.00 --> 4198.00] They all kind of suck. +[4198.00 --> 4204.00] So hotspot shield is very reasonable, especially if you use our 20% off code, uh, offer code Linus right there. +[4204.00 --> 4206.00] You basically set it up and what it does. +[4206.00 --> 4209.00] And I've actually had quite a few people ask me about this. +[4209.00 --> 4214.00] So I'm going to go ahead and, uh, I'm going to go ahead and explain it. +[4214.00 --> 4217.00] So I've had people say, will a VPN make my internet slower? +[4217.00 --> 4221.00] And the answer is yes, because that's inherently how it works. +[4221.00 --> 4222.00] It takes, okay. +[4222.00 --> 4228.00] So let's say this is me and this is a website I'm trying to visit. +[4228.00 --> 4231.00] The way that you would normally connect to it is directly. +[4231.00 --> 4232.00] So they would have your IP. +[4232.00 --> 4237.00] They would have any information that you send or receive directly. +[4237.00 --> 4242.00] The way a VPN works is it goes ahead and takes your information and sends it somewhere else entirely, +[4242.00 --> 4245.00] like to Luke's hair, and then sends it to the site. +[4245.00 --> 4249.00] And then I'm sorry, I just poked you in the eye and then back to you. +[4249.00 --> 4252.00] So there is going to be a delay in terms of latency. +[4252.00 --> 4255.00] I wouldn't expect to be able to game smoothly on a VPN. +[4255.00 --> 4258.00] And there's going to be a change in your speed. +[4258.00 --> 4262.00] And in fact, running speed tests might just deliver the weirdest results ever. +[4262.00 --> 4263.00] Like just be fundamentally broken. +[4263.00 --> 4266.00] But what it does is it's redirecting the traffic. +[4266.00 --> 4269.00] So all the traffic looks like it's coming from that other place. +[4269.00 --> 4274.00] This has the benefit of, so let's go ahead, of allowing you to pretend you're from somewhere you're in. +[4275.00 --> 4281.00] And to somewhat, although nothing is bulletproof, again, be from somewhere that you're not. +[4281.00 --> 4288.00] So you can get access to UK sites or US sites, even if you're located in Portugal or whatever else. +[4288.00 --> 4295.00] So it's a great way to, if you are determined enough to get access to content legitimately, +[4295.00 --> 4305.00] at least circumvent the blocks that are in place so that you can pay for the content. +[4305.00 --> 4308.00] Like for example, US Netflix, even if you're not in the US. +[4308.00 --> 4314.00] And give the content creator something, even if you are, according to the terms of service, not really allowed to do it. +[4314.00 --> 4320.00] So one more time guys, that's bit.ly slash hsshare for 20% off elite prices. +[4320.00 --> 4321.00] Use offer code Linus. +[4321.00 --> 4324.00] And I've actually got a link to give you guys. +[4324.00 --> 4326.00] So here, go ahead. +[4326.00 --> 4327.00] I'm going to post this in the Twitch chat. +[4327.00 --> 4329.00] This is something I always forget to do. +[4329.00 --> 4331.00] There we go. +[4331.00 --> 4332.00] Boom. +[4332.00 --> 4333.00] That didn't work at all. +[4333.00 --> 4335.00] Am I not allowed to post links in my own Twitch chat? +[4335.00 --> 4336.00] There you are. +[4336.00 --> 4337.00] Alright, so let's move into our second sponsor. +[4337.00 --> 4338.00] Huge thanks to Squarespace.com. +[4338.00 --> 4349.00] I believe today is the last day of their hunt for new software engineers and all that. +[4349.00 --> 4353.00] So be a part of it.Squarespace.com if you want to go check that out. +[4353.00 --> 4359.00] Squarespace.com is the super easy way to build a beautiful website for yourself. +[4359.00 --> 4363.00] And I always use my own site as an example, but I really do think it's a great example. +[4363.00 --> 4365.00] So we're going to go ahead and screen share with me. +[4365.00 --> 4366.00] LinusMediaGroup.com. +[4366.00 --> 4369.00] We have tried flooding it during the stream. +[4369.00 --> 4371.00] It is super easy to set up. +[4371.00 --> 4372.00] It works with touch. +[4372.00 --> 4374.00] It works on a phone. +[4374.00 --> 4375.00] It works on a tablet. +[4375.00 --> 4377.00] It works on whatever you want. +[4377.00 --> 4379.00] And it is very, very inexpensive. +[4379.00 --> 4382.00] Squarespace takes care of the software. +[4382.00 --> 4386.00] So the cloud-based management software that you use to build your own website. +[4386.00 --> 4388.00] And they take care of the hosting for you. +[4388.00 --> 4392.00] And if you go ahead and activate your account for an entire year, whether it's a whole +[4392.00 --> 4398.00] entire year, whether it's a blog or a photography portfolio or a store, they have a fully functioning +[4398.00 --> 4400.00] e-commerce module now. +[4400.00 --> 4404.00] For an entire year, they will actually throw in your domain hosting for you for the first +[4404.00 --> 4406.00] year for nothing. +[4406.00 --> 4410.00] So you can save 10% and the free trial lasts for two weeks. +[4410.00 --> 4416.00] We've actually done stuff in the past where we've had people submit their own Squarespace +[4416.00 --> 4417.00] trial sites. +[4417.00 --> 4419.00] And we've given away accounts for it before. +[4419.00 --> 4422.00] So guys, let me know in Twitter, actually, if you'd like for us to do that again. +[4422.00 --> 4424.00] And I'll reach out to Squarespace and I'll ask them. +[4424.00 --> 4429.00] If you've been thinking about starting your own website, it is a great way to differentiate. +[4429.00 --> 4432.00] I know Unbox Therapy uses Squarespace for his site now. +[4432.00 --> 4434.00] His old one was kind of terabad. +[4434.00 --> 4437.00] And our old one on WordPress was kind of terrible too. +[4437.00 --> 4438.00] And this one we created... +[4438.00 --> 4440.00] Did we spend more than two days on this? +[4440.00 --> 4441.00] Total man hours? +[4441.00 --> 4443.00] Yeah, I think so. +[4443.00 --> 4445.00] But I think it was rebranding. +[4445.00 --> 4446.00] Right. +[4446.00 --> 4447.00] Not like... +[4447.00 --> 4448.00] Like art assets. +[4448.00 --> 4449.00] Not building the site. +[4449.00 --> 4450.00] Yeah. +[4450.00 --> 4453.00] And it was like ideas and, oh, we don't necessarily like how that looks. +[4453.00 --> 4454.00] Let's go a different direction with it. +[4454.00 --> 4459.00] Stuff that wasn't complications, it was more furthering of the website. +[4459.00 --> 4463.00] Well, what happened was when you create your account, you select a template based on the +[4463.00 --> 4465.00] kind of site you want to create. +[4465.00 --> 4468.00] And I just picked a random one because I wasn't sure. +[4468.00 --> 4471.00] And what I didn't realize is you can't go back and just change it because the way the +[4471.00 --> 4474.00] templates work is they're very tightly integrated. +[4474.00 --> 4477.00] That's how they get it to work well on the desktop, well on a phone, on a tablet or whatever +[4477.00 --> 4478.00] else. +[4478.00 --> 4479.00] So I think we had to... +[4479.00 --> 4483.00] We were trying to use the wrong template and then we had to undo it and then start over. +[4483.00 --> 4487.00] And if we hadn't wasted time because I just was like click, click, click, click, click, +[4487.00 --> 4490.00] then it probably would have been fine. +[4490.00 --> 4493.00] Just like you did with our original forum software. +[4498.00 --> 4500.00] I love you, man. +[4500.00 --> 4502.00] That sucked. +[4502.00 --> 4504.00] Anyways, continuing time. +[4504.00 --> 4506.00] Smart cover? +[4506.00 --> 4508.00] Yeah, I don't really care about that. +[4508.00 --> 4509.00] Let's just... +[4509.00 --> 4512.00] We'll talk about that when they actually send us a phone and a smart cover. +[4512.00 --> 4513.00] Oh! +[4513.00 --> 4514.00] Oh! +[4514.00 --> 4515.00] Alright. +[4515.00 --> 4516.00] Oh! +[4516.00 --> 4517.00] Something that doesn't suck. +[4517.00 --> 4519.00] Razor Blade 14. +[4519.00 --> 4521.00] New edition. +[4521.00 --> 4522.00] Wow! +[4522.00 --> 4527.00] This is the notebook that I want. +[4527.00 --> 4528.00] Like... +[4528.00 --> 4529.00] Are they sending you one? +[4529.00 --> 4531.00] I don't know yet. +[4531.00 --> 4538.00] For Blade 14 original, I think I was like number four on the list. +[4538.00 --> 4539.00] So... +[4539.00 --> 4542.00] And then despite the call out and everything. +[4542.00 --> 4543.00] Yeah. +[4543.00 --> 4544.00] Might not be number four. +[4544.00 --> 4545.00] You know what? +[4545.00 --> 4548.00] I mean, this is something I hope that viewers understand. +[4548.00 --> 4552.00] Is my relationship with Razor is not always peachy keen. +[4552.00 --> 4553.00] No! +[4553.00 --> 4554.00] They... +[4554.00 --> 4558.00] They sponsored the WAN show for like months. +[4558.00 --> 4560.00] So yeah, we've taken money from them. +[4560.00 --> 4565.00] But if you look at my Razor Blade 14 video, I call them out pretty hardcore on that screen. +[4565.00 --> 4568.00] And we don't have the most sponsors on the WAN show anymore. +[4568.00 --> 4569.00] And... +[4569.00 --> 4570.00] Yeah, but that's not why. +[4570.00 --> 4571.00] That just ran out. +[4571.00 --> 4572.00] They're still willing to sponsor it. +[4572.00 --> 4577.00] It's just that their internal targets for how many new comms users per dollar doesn't +[4577.00 --> 4580.00] align with how much a WAN show sponsorship costs. +[4580.00 --> 4581.00] So that's the only reason. +[4581.00 --> 4583.00] We're asking for too much money. +[4583.00 --> 4584.00] And so they're just like, well, whatever. +[4584.00 --> 4586.00] Then we just won't advertise with you. +[4586.00 --> 4588.00] So that's fine. +[4588.00 --> 4589.00] So I called them out on that. +[4589.00 --> 4591.00] I called them out on... +[4591.00 --> 4594.00] Like, they weren't even talking about who was manufacturing their switches. +[4594.00 --> 4597.00] In my video, I'm like, yeah, they're, you know, kale switches. +[4597.00 --> 4601.00] You know, like, what was the other one that I was pretty brutal on? +[4601.00 --> 4603.00] The Kraken Forged headphones? +[4603.00 --> 4606.00] In my video, I'm just like, I don't like it. +[4606.00 --> 4611.00] But you might if you like this thing that, you know, I don't personally like. +[4611.00 --> 4613.00] So like, it's not always 100% peachy keen. +[4613.00 --> 4617.00] And then, you know, I had a meeting with them that was about an hour long at CES where +[4617.00 --> 4619.00] their award winning, what's it called? +[4619.00 --> 4620.00] The Naboo? +[4620.00 --> 4621.00] Their smart wrist thing? +[4621.00 --> 4622.00] Oh, yeah, yeah. +[4622.00 --> 4624.00] I was just like, I don't think it makes a ton of sense. +[4624.00 --> 4626.00] And they're just like, well, we think it's great. +[4626.00 --> 4630.00] I'm like, okay, well, when I see the final one and you guys send one, then I'll make up my mind +[4630.00 --> 4631.00] at that point in time. +[4631.00 --> 4634.00] But like, we had a pretty strong disagreement about that too. +[4634.00 --> 4642.00] So this one though, if this arrives, and it's what I'm expecting it to be, then I personally +[4642.00 --> 4650.00] told Min Liang Tan, their CEO, when I did my original review, he made me promise, he's +[4650.00 --> 4657.00] like, look, if we fix the things you complained about, will you say that the Blade 14 is your +[4657.00 --> 4659.00] ideal, perfect notebook? +[4659.00 --> 4663.00] And I said, yeah, because I couldn't think of anything else that was wrong with it. +[4663.00 --> 4671.00] So the new one is the world's thinnest gaming laptop, now with a, what is it? +[4671.00 --> 4676.00] 2800 by 1800 display. +[4676.00 --> 4677.00] Holy crap. +[4677.00 --> 4685.00] And the way, or no, sorry, sorry, 3200 by 1800 display. +[4685.00 --> 4692.00] And the amazing thing about this is that while they did upgrade the graphics card, oh yeah, +[4692.00 --> 4698.00] oh yeah, not TN anymore, IGZO, so that's a sharp IPS panel. +[4698.00 --> 4704.00] So they've put an IGZO and it's a touchscreen, which was my, that was my off the record complaint +[4704.00 --> 4709.00] about the Blade 14, because I felt like most gamers wouldn't really care about touchscreen +[4709.00 --> 4713.00] as a feature, but when I talked to them, I said, I personally like the touchscreen and +[4713.00 --> 4714.00] I'd love to see it implemented. +[4714.00 --> 4719.00] It's got new NVIDIA graphics, so it's got an 870M in there. +[4719.00 --> 4720.00] Solid. +[4720.00 --> 4721.00] Which is solid. +[4721.00 --> 4723.00] That was like the only thing I cared about. +[4723.00 --> 4729.00] And I didn't, I don't know if you know this, but some 870Ms are going to be Kepler based +[4729.00 --> 4731.00] and some are going to be Maxwell based. +[4731.00 --> 4732.00] Yeah. +[4732.00 --> 4739.00] So I'm hoping that it's a Maxwell one and if it's a Maxwell, this is going to be one power +[4739.00 --> 4742.00] efficient, and they're both about the same speed. +[4742.00 --> 4745.00] But it depends how many functional cores they have versus what clock speed they're running +[4745.00 --> 4746.00] at. +[4746.00 --> 4752.00] But anyway, anyway, so if this one has the Maxwell version in it, this thing is going to blow +[4752.00 --> 4753.00] your mind. +[4753.00 --> 4759.00] Now, I've had people say that even though they amped up the graphics card in it, they +[4759.00 --> 4764.00] amped up the resolution to the point where it's just stupid and nothing can drive it anyway. +[4764.00 --> 4765.00] And you'd be right. +[4765.00 --> 4768.00] This is pretty much a 3K resolution. +[4768.00 --> 4770.00] But this is something to remember. +[4770.00 --> 4777.00] The reason that I ponied up like $750 when I was a student, which was a lot of money for +[4777.00 --> 4787.00] my, like, I bet the rent or like I paid spent the rent on a Dell 2405 FPW was because even +[4787.00 --> 4794.00] though LCDs have a native resolution, you can work around it if you can get, um, if your +[4794.00 --> 4798.00] resolution is an even multiple of the resolution you're trying to run. +[4798.00 --> 4808.00] So what's cool about 3200 by 1800 is that it divides evenly into 1600 by 900, which on a +[4808.00 --> 4813.00] 14 inch display, higher than 720p, is going to look really good. +[4813.00 --> 4820.00] And you're not going to get any BS interpolation because it will be a 1 to 4 pixel mapping ratio, +[4820.00 --> 4822.00] so everything's going to look crisp. +[4822.00 --> 4828.00] So you can have beautiful, super crisp text, and you can have your gaming look fine and +[4828.00 --> 4830.00] not be too demanding to run. +[4830.00 --> 4833.00] I have to throw a joke in here before you keep going. +[4833.00 --> 4835.00] I just want this notebook. +[4835.00 --> 4839.00] So it's Intel chipset HM87. +[4839.00 --> 4841.00] And when I read that, I actually read it wrong. +[4841.00 --> 4844.00] I read it as TM87 because I've been playing too much Pokemon lately. +[4844.00 --> 4850.00] So for Pokemon fans and anyone who wants to see a joke, Google TM87 and look at the first +[4850.00 --> 4854.00] link and it plays into how excited he is about this and then just keep going. +[4854.00 --> 4855.00] I'm not even going to explain. +[4855.00 --> 4856.00] Okay. +[4856.00 --> 4859.00] It's got a quad-core processor, Haswell, etc, etc, etc. +[4859.00 --> 4865.00] Anyway, I'm really excited about this notebook and I'm trying to convince Razer that they should +[4865.00 --> 4868.00] send one without, like, a proper loaner agreement. +[4868.00 --> 4874.00] Because, like, a lot of the time I have to sign a contract that says that they'll just +[4874.00 --> 4876.00] bill my credit card if I don't return it. +[4876.00 --> 4879.00] So I'm going to be like, yeah, you know what, guys, we go way back. +[4879.00 --> 4881.00] Just send it, don't worry about it. +[4881.00 --> 4886.00] Because I would trade in my XPS 12 like that. +[4886.00 --> 4890.00] Even though it's a convertible and I actually do use tablet mode once in a while. +[4890.00 --> 4891.00] Oh. +[4891.00 --> 4893.00] I am... +[4893.00 --> 4895.00] Everyone in the Twitch chat figured it out. +[4895.00 --> 4898.00] I am la-stoked. +[4898.00 --> 4899.00] Oh my goodness. +[4899.00 --> 4901.00] TM87 is swagger. +[4901.00 --> 4902.00] Okay. +[4902.00 --> 4905.00] I'm not even going to look at it. +[4905.00 --> 4906.00] It's swagger. +[4906.00 --> 4907.00] TM87 is swagger. +[4907.00 --> 4910.00] There's actually a song about TM87. +[4910.00 --> 4911.00] I don't even know what you're talking about. +[4911.00 --> 4914.00] I haven't played Pokemon since, like, Pokemon Blue. +[4914.00 --> 4915.00] On Game Boy Color. +[4915.00 --> 4917.00] Yeah, I played Pokemon Blue and then I skipped... +[4917.00 --> 4918.00] On Game Boy Color. +[4918.00 --> 4919.00] Yeah. +[4919.00 --> 4922.00] I played Pokemon Blue on Game Boy Color and then I skipped everything. +[4922.00 --> 4923.00] What's swagger? +[4923.00 --> 4925.00] Well, TM87 wasn't in Pokemon Blue. +[4925.00 --> 4926.00] Yeah. +[4926.00 --> 4927.00] So that's why you don't know it. +[4927.00 --> 4928.00] And I never watched the show. +[4928.00 --> 4929.00] So, I got nothing. +[4929.00 --> 4930.00] Yeah. +[4930.00 --> 4932.00] Well, I watched the first season and then I started playing X and Y. +[4932.00 --> 4933.00] So I know Snorlax. +[4933.00 --> 4938.00] Because I played like 10 or 20 minutes of all the Pokemons between here and then where +[4938.00 --> 4940.00] we are now with X and Y and Blue and Red. +[4940.00 --> 4943.00] And I actually see X and Y as a really good improvement. +[4943.00 --> 4944.00] Okay. +[4944.00 --> 4948.00] I didn't see the other ones as like major improvements and changes but I like the new one. +[4948.00 --> 4949.00] Are you still using your DS all the time? +[4949.00 --> 4951.00] I really want to play Bravely Default. +[4951.00 --> 4952.00] I'm at the Elite Four. +[4952.00 --> 4953.00] Okay. +[4953.00 --> 4954.00] Of X and Y. +[4954.00 --> 4955.00] So when I'm done you can play it. +[4955.00 --> 4956.00] Okay. +[4956.00 --> 4959.00] Maybe we can work out a deal where I borrow your DS for like a month and then you own +[4959.00 --> 4960.00] the Bravely Default cartridge or something. +[4960.00 --> 4963.00] I was going to see if I could make that deal. +[4963.00 --> 4964.00] Alright. +[4964.00 --> 4967.00] Because I looked it up after you told me about it and I was like, wow, I want to play it. +[4967.00 --> 4968.00] I want to play it. +[4968.00 --> 4969.00] Yeah. +[4969.00 --> 4972.00] When people suggested it to me I was like, oh cool. +[4972.00 --> 4973.00] I've seen ads for it. +[4973.00 --> 4976.00] And I went on Steam because I didn't even, I had no idea what it was. +[4976.00 --> 4977.00] You went on Steam. +[4977.00 --> 4979.00] So I was like, oh cool, I have a game. +[4979.00 --> 4981.00] Oh, it's on the DS. +[4981.00 --> 4982.00] My DS Lite is broken. +[4982.00 --> 4985.00] Oh, it's not available for DS Lite anyway. +[4985.00 --> 4986.00] Like pfff. +[4986.00 --> 4992.00] And I really don't want to buy one because I'm not going to play any games on it other +[4992.00 --> 4994.00] than I just, I want to play that. +[4994.00 --> 4998.00] Like I could play that and like remakes of like older Final Fantasy games and that's +[4998.00 --> 5002.00] the only thing I could possibly care about that came out of Square Enix in the last like +[5002.00 --> 5003.00] five years. +[5003.00 --> 5005.00] I've been having a great time with Pokemon X. +[5005.00 --> 5006.00] That's the one I have. +[5006.00 --> 5008.00] I'm so stoked on Bravely Default. +[5008.00 --> 5013.00] Like it's a JRPG that has like, I think it's like an 85% plus rating on Metacritic, +[5013.00 --> 5018.00] which is like, that's a pretty strong indicator that it probably basically kicks ass. +[5018.00 --> 5019.00] Yeah. +[5019.00 --> 5020.00] Okay. +[5020.00 --> 5021.00] Things that don't kick ass. +[5021.00 --> 5022.00] No. +[5022.00 --> 5027.00] Expect not to talk for five minutes because I am so mad about this. +[5027.00 --> 5033.00] So Microsoft and Google, like, okay, this was one of the cool, this was, you know what? +[5033.00 --> 5038.00] Some of the stuff that won awards at CES, like honestly, like I'm like shaking with rage +[5038.00 --> 5039.00] right now. +[5039.00 --> 5041.00] I'm going to jut in before you keep going while you search for that. +[5041.00 --> 5045.00] This brings in the, brings up the trade agreement thing that we debated about with Tesla. +[5045.00 --> 5047.00] Anyways, keep going. +[5047.00 --> 5048.00] Okay. +[5048.00 --> 5049.00] Okay. +[5049.00 --> 5050.00] I'm just going to, I'm, you know what? +[5050.00 --> 5051.00] I'm going to make you guys sit through this. +[5051.00 --> 5055.00] I'm going to make you, I'm going to make you watch my video from CES. +[5055.00 --> 5058.00] Let me just see if, I don't know if you have audio. +[5058.00 --> 5059.00] Just make sure your levels aren't broken. +[5059.00 --> 5061.00] You guys will have to let me know if you have audio here. +[5061.00 --> 5062.00] I'm sorry. +[5062.00 --> 5063.00] Okay. +[5063.00 --> 5064.00] You know what? +[5064.00 --> 5066.00] Maybe I'll just, maybe I'll just like go along. +[5066.00 --> 5067.00] There. +[5067.00 --> 5068.00] This. +[5068.00 --> 5070.00] So this is the Transformer Book Duet. +[5070.00 --> 5071.00] I'm going to go ahead and maximize. +[5071.00 --> 5073.00] It didn't even get that many views. +[5073.00 --> 5075.00] It didn't get that much attention at CES. +[5075.00 --> 5078.00] It didn't win any amazing CES Innovation Awards. +[5078.00 --> 5084.00] But this was one of the coolest products at the show because what it is, is it's a transformer. +[5084.00 --> 5089.00] So you can actually pop the top off here and turn it into a tablet or it's a notebook. +[5089.00 --> 5090.00] No audio. +[5090.00 --> 5091.00] That's fine. +[5091.00 --> 5092.00] It runs, yeah, that's fine. +[5092.00 --> 5093.00] Guys, I'll walk you through it. +[5093.00 --> 5100.00] So it runs an Intel processor, which means that the Windows experience is your normal +[5100.00 --> 5104.00] full Windows experience, not some ARM Windows RT BS. +[5104.00 --> 5105.00] Full Windows experience. +[5105.00 --> 5108.00] It runs that same Intel processor on Android. +[5108.00 --> 5112.00] They had games running like butter smooth. +[5112.00 --> 5114.00] Man, it was amazing. +[5114.00 --> 5116.00] Outstanding Android experience. +[5116.00 --> 5119.00] And what was cool about it is you could actually switch. +[5119.00 --> 5126.00] So all the hardware was actually in the top half and the bottom half was just IO and keyboard +[5126.00 --> 5127.00] and maybe an extended battery. +[5127.00 --> 5128.00] I can't remember. +[5128.00 --> 5130.00] But what was cool about it was, check this out. +[5130.00 --> 5133.00] You just hit the button and it takes literally this long. +[5133.00 --> 5134.00] We didn't speed up the footage. +[5134.00 --> 5135.00] We didn't play around with it. +[5135.00 --> 5136.00] You can see me. +[5136.00 --> 5137.00] I'm just sitting there. +[5137.00 --> 5138.00] Boom. +[5138.00 --> 5139.00] Windows, Android. +[5139.00 --> 5144.00] So what I was thinking about is that it's not necessarily that I think everyone needs +[5144.00 --> 5148.00] to have an Android tablet in the same way that I don't think everyone needs to have a notebook. +[5148.00 --> 5154.00] But if you were to offer me a device that is a hybrid between the two so that I can enjoy, +[5154.00 --> 5160.00] maybe I actually really like Hangouts on Android, and I just want to sit with my tablet on the couch +[5160.00 --> 5165.00] and video chat with someone, that's fantastic. +[5165.00 --> 5170.00] And I'm having that Google native experience, but maybe I want to get some real work done, +[5170.00 --> 5172.00] which you cannot do on Android. +[5172.00 --> 5173.00] I'm sorry. +[5173.00 --> 5180.00] Android tablets are not up to the same level as what you can achieve with a Windows notebook +[5180.00 --> 5181.00] that is properly integrated. +[5181.00 --> 5183.00] And this one was really well built. +[5183.00 --> 5188.00] So what if I want to have that experience and the other one, and I'm willing to pay a premium for it? +[5188.00 --> 5191.00] That's where a product like this made a ton of sense. +[5191.00 --> 5197.00] Switching back to Windows took like five seconds as well, so I could have my cake, and I could eat it too, +[5197.00 --> 5203.00] and it was amazing, and Microsoft and Google have collectively screwed us by saying, +[5203.00 --> 5209.00] no, we don't want hybrids between Android and Windows. +[5209.00 --> 5216.00] Now, ASUS has been doing this for a while, and they have, I guarantee you, put a ton of work into this. +[5216.00 --> 5225.00] It started at CES 2013 when they first showed off the Transformer AIO, and that was an all-in-one PC that docked to a Windows machine, +[5225.00 --> 5232.00] and then you pulled it away, and all the Android hardware, I think it was a Tegra 3 processor, was actually inside the tablet itself. +[5232.00 --> 5240.00] They have refined that technology over the course of a year to have it all running on the same hardware, seamlessly letting you switch between it, +[5240.00 --> 5249.00] and Microsoft and Google have basically spat all over that innovation and that R&D work, and taken an extremely important product away from customers. +[5249.00 --> 5255.00] We should have the right to choose between the platforms that are available on the hardware that we can get, +[5255.00 --> 5262.00] and even if we can't necessarily install it and dual-boot it ourselves, someone like ASUS or MSI or Gigabyte, or I don't care who, +[5262.00 --> 5269.00] should have the right to deliver that to us if they're the ones who did the work in the first place to allow us to have it. +[5269.00 --> 5272.00] So that's all I have to say about that. +[5272.00 --> 5275.00] I don't know where my notes on this went. +[5275.00 --> 5279.00] And I don't always defend ASUS, because they're not always right. +[5279.00 --> 5282.00] But in this case, they got screwed. +[5282.00 --> 5287.00] I don't know where my notes on this went. They seemingly have been deleted, which is weird. +[5287.00 --> 5292.00] But one thing that I find interesting is that they didn't care, I know it's a different platform entirely, +[5292.00 --> 5297.00] but Android did not care about the Ubuntu-Android mixture. +[5297.00 --> 5301.00] Which is interesting, because it's an OS. +[5301.00 --> 5305.00] You could plug it into a hub of sorts, and then have a desktop experience and all that kind of stuff. +[5305.00 --> 5308.00] It's a completely different platform, which is a problem for the comparison. +[5308.00 --> 5310.00] But still, they didn't really care. +[5310.00 --> 5314.00] But now that it's Windows, and now that it makes more sense for a platform- +[5314.00 --> 5316.00] And Microsoft has never cared about dual-booting Linux. +[5316.00 --> 5317.00] And Microsoft has never cared about that. +[5317.00 --> 5322.00] And this was so much more elegant! You didn't even have to dual-boot! You just switched! +[5322.00 --> 5328.00] And like, I actually really wanted this, because there's a lot of really interesting Android games coming out, +[5328.00 --> 5331.00] where you play it and you go, wow, this is a really good game. +[5331.00 --> 5333.00] It would be a lot better if I had a different interface. +[5333.00 --> 5339.00] And with Intel's improved onboard graphics, we were going to be able to get a decent notebook-grade gaming experience. +[5339.00 --> 5343.00] And with- I mean, now I'm even more mad! +[5343.00 --> 5344.00] Yeah. +[5344.00 --> 5346.00] Steam in Home streaming would have run perfectly on this notebook. +[5346.00 --> 5353.00] You could play every Android game and every Windows game under the sun with one device in your home. +[5353.00 --> 5355.00] And they just took it away from us. +[5355.00 --> 5358.00] It was a fantastic laptop. Absolutely fantastic laptop. +[5358.00 --> 5360.00] Had actually already talked to people about recommending it. +[5360.00 --> 5365.00] I know it wasn't a huge video, but I liked it. I didn't even get to go see it, but I liked it a lot. +[5365.00 --> 5371.00] And I've talked to multiple people about it. I have people that like developing things through different platforms. +[5371.00 --> 5376.00] One thing that's really frustrating for those type of people is having to have some type of platform with iOS on it. +[5377.00 --> 5381.00] Which is frustrating when you don't want to buy an iOS platform designed device. +[5381.00 --> 5385.00] I had to buy an iPad mini because we couldn't test something that was only available with that. +[5385.00 --> 5387.00] And we got a sample of it and committed to do a review. +[5387.00 --> 5388.00] Yeah. +[5388.00 --> 5389.00] It's like crappy. +[5389.00 --> 5392.00] That's frustrating and annoying, but Android is usually easier to get. +[5392.00 --> 5393.00] But if you... +[5393.00 --> 5396.00] This made it so elegant it was ridiculous. +[5396.00 --> 5398.00] I would have bought one of these. +[5398.00 --> 5404.00] And I mean to be clear about that, like I don't buy a ton of hardware because we get a lot of samples. +[5404.00 --> 5406.00] And there's, you know, if I really need something... +[5406.00 --> 5407.00] We don't get a lot of laptop samples. +[5407.00 --> 5408.00] We don't get a lot of laptop samples. +[5408.00 --> 5409.00] This one was a sample though. +[5409.00 --> 5410.00] This one wasn't. +[5410.00 --> 5411.00] That's your old one. +[5411.00 --> 5412.00] This is my old one. +[5412.00 --> 5421.00] But I mean if I really, really need something, there's usually some way that I can figure out, you know, like, hey, we'll run an ad for you there. +[5421.00 --> 5425.00] Or like, hey, we really need some RAM for our test bench. +[5425.00 --> 5429.00] So when we do testing, we'll like make sure we say that it's your RAM in the test bench. +[5429.00 --> 5430.00] Like simple stuff. +[5430.00 --> 5432.00] Like nothing that compromises integrity. +[5432.00 --> 5435.00] But it's not hard for us to get hardware if we really need it. +[5435.00 --> 5441.00] But this was the kind of thing where ASUS doesn't sample notebooks, but I would have just bought it. +[5441.00 --> 5443.00] Because it's an amazing product. +[5443.00 --> 5445.00] And it's a great user experience. +[5445.00 --> 5448.00] And I don't want to talk about this anymore. +[5448.00 --> 5450.00] Why don't you do Builds of the Week? +[5450.00 --> 5451.00] Here, I'm going to leave this with you. +[5451.00 --> 5454.00] Because we have something interesting coming up. +[5454.00 --> 5464.00] I've been trying to figure out for quite some time how we can get rid of some of the, like, build up of tech stuff that we have. +[5464.00 --> 5465.00] Lying around here. +[5465.00 --> 5471.00] And the Linus Tech Tips store, which you have to log in on LinusTechTips.com. +[5471.00 --> 5473.00] Don't worry, it's easy to log in on LinusTechTips.com. +[5473.00 --> 5476.00] You can use Facebook, Steam, or Twitter. +[5476.00 --> 5481.00] But if you go to the store, which is right here, you can actually see that there's a bunch of stuff in there. +[5481.00 --> 5489.00] But it's hard for me to really publicize it because, you know, I don't want to, I don't want to turn it into, like, a mad rush of people heading over there. +[5489.00 --> 5494.00] Because a lot of this stuff won't have any warranty because it's a sample or whatever else. +[5494.00 --> 5500.00] And honestly, coordinating this many giveaways, you guys have no idea how much work giveaways are. +[5500.00 --> 5504.00] This stuff can help contribute to our daily operating costs. +[5504.00 --> 5513.00] So we'd love to get some kind of, some kind of monetary compensation for it so that we can reinvest that money into new equipment. +[5513.00 --> 5522.00] And, of course, something that we've started doing more lately, reinvest it into buying samples of stuff that we otherwise wouldn't have access to. +[5522.00 --> 5526.00] Which can lead us into the topic about the things that are going to be released this video, this week. +[5526.00 --> 5527.00] The video. +[5527.00 --> 5528.00] Really? +[5528.00 --> 5529.00] The video that is going to be released this weekend. +[5529.00 --> 5532.00] Yeah, so there's lots of new stuff that we want to reinvest in. +[5532.00 --> 5534.00] And this will actually help us. +[5534.00 --> 5540.00] So I am going to go, and I'm going to just go get some stuff that I'm just going to add to the store. +[5540.00 --> 5545.00] And we're going to do, like, live, like, garage sale after the WAN show today. +[5545.00 --> 5550.00] So once we end the show, stick around for, like, a couple minutes if you guys are interested in the garage sale. +[5550.00 --> 5553.00] Yeah, so we're still doing the show. You're not going right now, right? +[5553.00 --> 5554.00] Nope. +[5554.00 --> 5556.00] Yeah, okay. I thought you were going right now. +[5556.00 --> 5557.00] Oh, I was going to. +[5557.00 --> 5558.00] Yeah, no. +[5558.00 --> 5559.00] Oh, you need me here? +[5559.00 --> 5563.00] Well, there's the leak thing about the video that's coming this weekend. +[5563.00 --> 5569.00] Oh, yeah. So we are going to be doing a couple pilots for you guys. +[5569.00 --> 5574.00] Luke's wanted to do a gaming-centric show forever, basically since he started. +[5574.00 --> 5575.00] Yeah. +[5575.00 --> 5583.00] And then I have wanted to do a toy-centric channel ever since I never grew up and like toys. +[5583.00 --> 5589.00] So we have each produced a pilot episode, and we're going to create a thread on the Linus Tech Tips Forum. +[5589.00 --> 5592.00] So stay tuned for this. I think the video is going to launch Saturday or Sunday? +[5592.00 --> 5593.00] Saturday. +[5593.00 --> 5595.00] Saturday or Sunday night, our time. +[5595.00 --> 5608.00] And we'd love for you guys to vote and let us know what you think of the concepts, which ones you think we should pursue, what you guys would like to see changed, because it is a ton of work to build up a new channel. +[5608.00 --> 5611.00] Tech Quickie is one that I was really certain about. +[5611.00 --> 5619.00] I knew that we needed that format that was really concise and well edited, but this is going to be completely new territory for us. Gaming or toys? +[5619.00 --> 5625.00] They're both like, they're both geeky, just like the tech that we already do, but they're different. +[5625.00 --> 5635.00] The voting options, there will be four of them. There's games only, toys only, mixture or none. Personally, I think we should go with mixture because I actually want to see... +[5635.00 --> 5638.00] You're coloring the results when you tell them what we think. +[5638.00 --> 5642.00] But that's the one I hope everyone votes for. +[5642.00 --> 5647.00] So if you're a slick fanboy, then I guess you could vote for his option. +[5647.00 --> 5649.00] Well, what's yours? +[5649.00 --> 5651.00] Probably a mixture of the two. +[5651.00 --> 5654.00] But I want to know what they think. +[5654.00 --> 5655.00] I do too. +[5655.00 --> 5661.00] But I'm just saying, we can vote. It's a public poll. I'm voting for mixture. +[5661.00 --> 5666.00] It's only one vote. It's not really going to screw things very much. +[5666.00 --> 5670.00] I'm mainly going to be announcing the new system, but I'll also brush over those. +[5670.00 --> 5672.00] Okay, here. I'm going to go find some stuff. +[5672.00 --> 5673.00] Okay. +[5673.00 --> 5675.00] To garage sale after the show. +[5675.00 --> 5680.00] So, Build Logs of the Week have been a thing that haven't existed for a long time. +[5680.00 --> 5684.00] Luckily that unplugged your headphones and not this cable because it's screwed in. Good job. +[5684.00 --> 5690.00] Okay. Build Logs of the Week are something that existed for a long time and then kind of disappeared. +[5690.00 --> 5693.00] I've had a lot of people ask me about that. +[5693.00 --> 5698.00] The reason why was when the forum first started, there honestly wasn't a ton of people around. +[5698.00 --> 5702.00] There was a lot of people, but not nearly the amount of numbers that there is now. +[5702.00 --> 5709.00] And it was fairly easy for me to manage going through every single Build Blog posted in a week. +[5709.00 --> 5715.00] And literally rank them internally in an Excel sheet, giving them like letter grades. +[5715.00 --> 5718.00] And then going through the ones that got A's at the end. +[5718.00 --> 5721.00] And then shuffling down to two and doing all of that footwork. +[5721.00 --> 5724.00] That was possible at the beginning. +[5724.00 --> 5727.00] It's not really possible now. I don't have the time to do it. +[5727.00 --> 5731.00] It's way too difficult. And near the end there when we were still doing Build Logs of the Week, +[5731.00 --> 5734.00] every single week I got tons of messages saying, +[5734.00 --> 5738.00] How did this one not make it? It's so much better. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. +[5738.00 --> 5743.00] And I'm like, okay, well, it maybe should have made it in as a third one. +[5743.00 --> 5747.00] I've done three because there's too many that were awesome before or something like that. +[5747.00 --> 5750.00] And it's just like, I didn't see it. +[5750.00 --> 5755.00] It came up on Friday or it was on the second page when I was looking and I didn't make it there. +[5755.00 --> 5758.00] Or it bounced around while I was looking and I missed it or something. +[5758.00 --> 5760.00] And that was happening way too much. +[5760.00 --> 5762.00] And it just became way too ridiculous. +[5762.00 --> 5765.00] So I dropped support for it because I was not able to do it anymore. +[5765.00 --> 5770.00] And left it pending on the, we need a better option for this stance. +[5770.00 --> 5774.00] Now we do have a better option for it, but it's going to take a lot of editing to the website. +[5774.00 --> 5780.00] And we're actually waiting for the next version of Envision Power Services software suite, +[5780.00 --> 5784.00] which is what we're using to come out of beta and then maybe get an update or two before we adopt it. +[5784.00 --> 5786.00] Because we're done with forum software betas. +[5786.00 --> 5788.00] Oh my God, we're done with forum software betas. +[5788.00 --> 5792.00] So we're waiting for that to happen because tons of things are going to change then. +[5792.00 --> 5795.00] And then once that happens, we're going to release the new system, +[5795.00 --> 5797.00] which will be very nice and elegant and all that kind of stuff. +[5797.00 --> 5803.00] But as a stand in for now, what we're going to do is we're going to have it set up so that your submission, +[5803.00 --> 5807.00] so your completed build log, not your build log in progress, your completed build log, +[5807.00 --> 5813.00] has to be completed and submitted in the week before voting, not the week during voting. +[5813.00 --> 5817.00] And your submission has to be up to a maximum of 200 words. +[5817.00 --> 5821.00] You can have a little description right up, one picture and a link to your thread. +[5821.00 --> 5826.00] After submitting all of these things, that will be in one pinned thread. +[5826.00 --> 5828.00] There will be another pinned thread of voting. +[5828.00 --> 5833.00] So after submitting all these things, I'll gather up everyone's submissions and put them in a voting thread. +[5833.00 --> 5836.00] So everyone will get their little blurb, which will be their one picture, +[5836.00 --> 5839.00] their 200 word maximum description and a link to their thread. +[5839.00 --> 5843.00] So you can kind of see a picture of the idea of it, go to their thread to see more information, +[5843.00 --> 5846.00] to see their description of their computer, which is very likely just going to be components, +[5846.00 --> 5848.00] but we'll see what people do with that. +[5848.00 --> 5852.00] And then there will be a poll and you can vote in the top two voted systems, +[5852.00 --> 5857.00] unless it's like an off by one situation where I might include three or something like that. +[5857.00 --> 5859.00] We'll get through and then we'll talk about those on the Land Show. +[5859.00 --> 5861.00] So that's how it's actually going to work. +[5861.00 --> 5863.00] Do, do, do, do, do, do. +[5863.00 --> 5865.00] If I go through here. +[5865.00 --> 5867.00] But that being said... +[5867.00 --> 5871.00] You know how many people used to complain when I would stall for time in the middle of an unboxing +[5871.00 --> 5874.00] by saying do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, and say it was unprofessional? +[5874.00 --> 5875.00] Really? +[5875.00 --> 5877.00] Yeah, I never cared. I just, I noticed you doing it. +[5877.00 --> 5880.00] I was just wondering if it's something you've always done or if it's something you picked up. +[5880.00 --> 5881.00] I've... +[5881.00 --> 5882.00] I don't know. +[5882.00 --> 5883.00] I think I've always done that. +[5883.00 --> 5884.00] I'm sorry, I interrupted. Go ahead. +[5884.00 --> 5888.00] No, no, it's fine. I think I've always done that. I'm not really sure though. +[5888.00 --> 5889.00] You're logged in as Linus Tech. +[5889.00 --> 5890.00] Oh. +[5890.00 --> 5892.00] Yay, it's not showing. +[5892.00 --> 5893.00] Um... +[5893.00 --> 5894.00] That's weird. +[5894.00 --> 5895.00] Can you log in as the other person? +[5895.00 --> 5896.00] Yeah, sure. +[5896.00 --> 5898.00] Linus Wann. +[5898.00 --> 5901.00] Ooh, is there anything... the talk? +[5901.00 --> 5904.00] Yeah, I think I'm just gonna, I think I'm gonna ditch the talk. +[5904.00 --> 5907.00] It just didn't impress me that much. +[5907.00 --> 5909.00] That's not gonna help you sell it. +[5909.00 --> 5910.00] That's fine. +[5910.00 --> 5914.00] I don't want people, I don't want people like paying an unfair amount for anything. +[5914.00 --> 5915.00] That's true. +[5915.00 --> 5916.00] Well, yeah, it's all gonna be super underpriced. +[5916.00 --> 5917.00] Yeah. +[5917.00 --> 5918.00] The Sentinel. +[5918.00 --> 5923.00] The idea here is that I want people to be getting a deal, and I want us to have a slush fund +[5923.00 --> 5925.00] so that we can buy stuff that we otherwise couldn't review. +[5925.00 --> 5927.00] Like stuff for the Toys Channel. +[5927.00 --> 5931.00] Because we've done some of that already, and the Toys Channel is gonna have no funding whatsoever +[5931.00 --> 5935.00] out of the gate, so that'll help a lot for that. +[5935.00 --> 5936.00] Yeah. +[5936.00 --> 5938.00] But like, I... +[5938.00 --> 5939.00] Right. +[5939.00 --> 5943.00] I had to buy the Pebble Steel that I have coming. +[5943.00 --> 5945.00] I wasn't seated a review unit. +[5945.00 --> 5946.00] Yep. +[5946.00 --> 5947.00] I had to... +[5947.00 --> 5950.00] I have a couple Kickstarter things that are still coming that I had to buy. +[5950.00 --> 5953.00] I had to buy that one toy thing. +[5953.00 --> 5955.00] Kickstarter things that are still coming. +[5955.00 --> 5956.00] It's so... +[5956.00 --> 5960.00] My dad will call me every once in a while, and just be like, well, there's a package here +[5960.00 --> 5961.00] for you. +[5961.00 --> 5963.00] I'm just like, what? +[5963.00 --> 5966.00] What is it? +[5966.00 --> 5968.00] I haven't ordered anything. +[5968.00 --> 5971.00] And he's like, uh, it says whatever the heck on it. +[5971.00 --> 5974.00] And I'm just like, I have no idea what that is. +[5974.00 --> 5976.00] Because it's usually from like some random fulfillment center. +[5976.00 --> 5977.00] Yeah. +[5977.00 --> 5979.00] He's like, uh, okay, I'll be over in a little bit. +[5979.00 --> 5980.00] Go over and pick it up. +[5980.00 --> 5984.00] I'm like, oh, I bought this on Kickstarter like over a year ago. +[5984.00 --> 5985.00] There you go. +[5985.00 --> 5986.00] Okay then. +[5986.00 --> 5987.00] Oh man. +[5987.00 --> 5992.00] It's kind of fun receiving like random presents that I've forgotten about though. +[5992.00 --> 5993.00] Oh, Kickstarter. +[5993.00 --> 5996.00] Or there's the guy that made the... +[5996.00 --> 5997.00] What? +[5997.00 --> 5998.00] No, that's me again. +[5998.00 --> 5999.00] Okay. +[5999.00 --> 6001.00] I don't know what we can do about that. +[6001.00 --> 6002.00] Okay. +[6002.00 --> 6004.00] Either way, everyone knows the new process that's going to come out. +[6004.00 --> 6005.00] Okay. +[6005.00 --> 6008.00] Um, I guess I'll actually go over these in the after party next time. +[6008.00 --> 6009.00] This time, I guess. +[6009.00 --> 6012.00] Um, because last week I was like, oh, they should be in the actual show. +[6012.00 --> 6015.00] But if we can't do it for whatever reason, then oh well. +[6015.00 --> 6016.00] Okay. +[6016.00 --> 6017.00] Um, but yeah, everyone knows the new system that's coming. +[6017.00 --> 6023.00] So I will be putting up that thread for people to put their suggestions or submissions in. +[6023.00 --> 6028.00] I want the person that actually made the build to actually submit their own thing. +[6028.00 --> 6029.00] If you're submitting for someone else... +[6029.00 --> 6030.00] Please don't. +[6030.00 --> 6031.00] No. +[6031.00 --> 6032.00] I'm just going to not take it. +[6032.00 --> 6037.00] Um, so yeah, I'll put that thread up later tonight and then we can start voting for next week. +[6037.00 --> 6040.00] So this is disappointing because it looks like I've, I forgot to bring my charger today. +[6040.00 --> 6043.00] And it looks like I've only got 11 minutes left on my notebook. +[6043.00 --> 6046.00] Um, but I think that's pretty much it for the official show. +[6046.00 --> 6050.00] So guys, uh, I'll be back with a QVC style. +[6050.00 --> 6054.00] I've decided that I'm just going to like lower prices until someone buys it. +[6054.00 --> 6056.00] Cause I have to get rid of this stuff. +[6056.00 --> 6057.00] We have no space. +[6057.00 --> 6058.00] We're out of room. +[6058.00 --> 6059.00] Okay. +[6059.00 --> 6060.00] I'm not leaving then. +[6060.00 --> 6061.00] Oh, all right. +[6061.00 --> 6062.00] Okay guys. +[6062.00 --> 6063.00] So stay tuned. +[6063.00 --> 6064.00] We'll be right back. +[6064.00 --> 6065.00] I'll try to find it. +[6065.00 --> 6066.00] I don't know where it is. +[6066.00 --> 6067.00] I'll try to find it. +[6067.00 --> 6068.00] I don't know where it is. +[6068.00 --> 6069.00] I'll try to find it. +[6069.00 --> 6070.00] Don't do that one first. +[6070.00 --> 6079.00] They can hear you. +[6079.00 --> 6080.00] I know. +[6080.00 --> 6081.00] Bye! +[6081.00 --> 6082.00] Bye! +[6082.00 --> 6083.00] Bye! +[6083.00 --> 6084.00] Bye! +[6084.00 --> 6085.00] Bye! +[6085.00 --> 6087.00] We're out of room. +[6087.00 --> 6088.00] Bye! +[6088.00 --> 6089.00] Bye! +[6089.00 --> 6090.00] We're out of room! +[6090.00 --> 6092.00] I'll try to find it! +[6092.00 --> 6093.00] I'll try to find it. +[6093.00 --> 6094.00] Don't do that one first. +[6094.00 --> 6095.08] Don't do that one first. +[6095.42 --> 6096.28] They can hear you. diff --git a/The WAN Show New Windows 9 DRM Rumours & Potato Salad - July 11th, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show New Windows 9 DRM Rumours & Potato Salad - July 11th, 2014_transcript.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..24c06c189c1fe696bd492a8abbd165944c59ad22 --- /dev/null +++ b/The WAN Show New Windows 9 DRM Rumours & Potato Salad - July 11th, 2014_transcript.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4071 @@ +[0.00 --> 6.12] And welcome to the WAN Show everyone!

And let me tell you, +[10.86 --> 17.32] when it comes to tickling, things can get pretty fancy around here. +[17.54 --> 22.12] We've got some great topics for you this week. Windows 9 is rumored to be +[22.12 --> 28.96] getting a revamped DRM scheme that A is kind of brutal and B kind of makes a lot +[28.96 --> 34.00] more sense. But more on that later. Also Windows 7 is going to be losing support +[34.00 --> 39.28] a lot sooner than I think most people would like. The, you know, just... +[39.28 --> 40.28] They have split support though. +[40.28 --> 45.64] The just shy of 50% of people out there that are running Windows 7 right now. +[45.64 --> 49.36] Might not be thrilled about this. And then what else we got? +[49.36 --> 52.78] Adblock Plus is getting sued and not for necessarily what you'd think. +[52.78 --> 58.20] Don't you dare tell them something else. A real topic. He was gonna say potato salad. +[58.20 --> 63.24] That is a real topic. It's not funny. It's stupid and it exploits the system. +[63.24 --> 65.88] I don't wanna talk about how it's funny. I wanna talk about what you just said. +[65.88 --> 68.52] It doesn't exploit the system. It exploits... +[68.52 --> 70.76] Humanity? I don't know what it exploits. +[70.76 --> 72.76] Humans desire to be a part of something larger? +[74.12 --> 78.96] Is that exploitation or is that just giving them what they need to be happy? +[79.96 --> 81.92] Is giving people what they need exploitation? +[82.86 --> 83.52] Why don't we just... +[83.52 --> 85.66] You're getting something from them at the same time. +[85.66 --> 86.70] Cue the intro. +[86.70 --> 88.22] We didn't even do another topic. +[88.22 --> 89.26] He said as if they had a producer. +[89.26 --> 92.30] I didn't even say potato salad.

+[282.48 --> 284.06] Uh, uh, uh, Supreme Commander. +[284.20 --> 284.34] Sorry. +[284.46 --> 284.88] Oh, yeah, yeah. +[284.88 --> 285.44] Supreme Commander. +[285.68 --> 287.58] So I had to enter two, like, in a row. +[287.70 --> 288.36] I'm just like, what? +[288.84 --> 289.86] I don't want to do this. +[290.00 --> 291.42] I feel like the 90s. +[291.94 --> 295.06] I have these discs and these strings of numbers. +[295.06 --> 295.88] What? +[295.88 --> 296.90] What is this? +[297.34 --> 297.94] Anyway, sorry. +[298.02 --> 298.40] Carry on. +[298.48 --> 300.56] Tell them about the rumored DRM scheme. +[300.58 --> 301.40] The rumored DRM scheme. +[301.46 --> 302.34] So we're not even sure. +[302.52 --> 303.78] But basically, what's going to happen +[303.78 --> 305.74] is you're going to have to have a Microsoft Store account +[305.74 --> 307.94] that's not the same as your Microsoft account. +[307.96 --> 310.70] So I can't continue to actually just use my Hotmail account +[310.70 --> 312.08] that I've had since the dawn of time. +[312.18 --> 312.66] Thanks for that. +[312.76 --> 313.28] Anyway, carry on. +[313.38 --> 314.46] It's a Microsoft Store account. +[314.70 --> 316.80] Um, and the images are going to be served to you +[316.80 --> 318.10] through the Microsoft Store. +[318.24 --> 319.92] So it's going to be attached to your account. +[320.18 --> 322.48] Very similar to how all these, like, gaming platforms +[322.48 --> 323.34] are doing their stuff now. +[323.34 --> 325.30] Um, your machine's detailed. +[325.50 --> 326.88] Usually just your motherboard details +[326.88 --> 327.98] are going to be logged with Microsoft +[327.98 --> 331.26] and the software is still activated on your machine. +[331.68 --> 334.56] But if you're freaked out right now, +[334.64 --> 336.14] just like I did when I first read that, +[336.22 --> 337.48] it's not actually that big of a deal +[337.48 --> 339.88] because if you go to install the OS on another machine, +[340.80 --> 342.38] it'll just deactivate your old machine, +[342.60 --> 344.38] re-log your new motherboard details, +[344.68 --> 345.50] and you're good to go. +[345.88 --> 348.70] So it's not actually, they thought about that, +[348.76 --> 350.86] which is surprising and cool. +[351.70 --> 352.10] Um, +[353.34 --> 355.72] that's, that's honestly basically it. +[355.78 --> 356.88] One of the big things they're going to be pushing +[356.88 --> 358.42] for Windows 9, which we already knew, +[358.56 --> 360.28] is that they're going to be trying to make it +[360.28 --> 362.20] for people that really liked Windows 7. +[362.40 --> 363.50] This is going to be their big push. +[363.60 --> 364.74] They're bringing back the start menu. +[365.12 --> 366.92] It's supposed to be an extremely functional start menu. +[367.42 --> 368.92] Uh, they're going to be talking about it in fall +[368.92 --> 371.72] with early public and semi-public pre-retail versions +[371.72 --> 373.76] of the OS being released and circulated +[373.76 --> 374.56] at that point in time. +[374.76 --> 377.04] So, especially if you're, like, going to school +[377.04 --> 378.58] for something in the way of, like, +[379.16 --> 381.60] something that's related to computer science at all, +[381.60 --> 383.98] you'll probably be getting versions of this really early. +[384.26 --> 385.58] Or if you're in the industry at all, +[385.60 --> 386.96] you'll probably be getting versions of this early. +[387.08 --> 389.88] And then, um, yeah. +[390.04 --> 390.56] I don't know. +[391.20 --> 393.50] Windows is, like, one of the most pirated things. +[394.06 --> 397.96] And I guess, like, I, I, I, I get that they need +[397.96 --> 399.52] to not be pirated as much. +[399.52 --> 401.12] And I can understand that. +[401.18 --> 401.92] They have to do something. +[402.38 --> 405.22] And as far as, uh, DRM approaches go, +[405.88 --> 408.96] I mean, as long as, I don't know. +[409.04 --> 413.92] Like, I, I used to really hate the subscription model. +[414.38 --> 417.96] But now that I'm on it for Adobe Creative Cloud, +[418.34 --> 420.06] um, now that I'm on it for Office, +[420.38 --> 422.10] why is this mic so quiet? +[422.82 --> 424.10] Having some trouble here. +[424.30 --> 424.80] Sorry, guys. +[424.80 --> 427.64] Um, now that I'm on it for Office as well, +[428.02 --> 430.14] um, I'm starting to kind of like it. +[430.20 --> 432.20] And the thing that I don't like now +[432.20 --> 435.66] is being stuck with a single license +[435.66 --> 437.18] of a piece of software +[437.18 --> 438.90] that's completely non-transferable. +[439.44 --> 442.70] Now I find that actually a lot more offensive. +[442.70 --> 443.38] I see that happen. +[443.66 --> 444.88] Oh, you mean, like, Steam. +[444.92 --> 445.78] I mean, like, the, +[445.88 --> 447.62] I mean the more traditional Windows approach. +[448.18 --> 450.28] Where, particularly the OEM licenses, +[450.60 --> 452.08] it's just, it's like, just... +[452.08 --> 452.60] It's stuck. +[452.60 --> 455.70] You had to buy it once and then it's just... +[455.70 --> 457.44] But this kind of solves that problem. +[457.66 --> 457.88] Yes. +[458.00 --> 459.50] Because if you activate it on another machine, +[459.58 --> 461.56] it just deactivates the other machine automatically. +[461.62 --> 461.80] Yes. +[461.80 --> 462.40] Because it saves your, +[462.46 --> 463.20] which is actually kind of interesting. +[463.20 --> 464.72] Now with retail copies of Windows, +[464.72 --> 466.46] that was always the case. +[466.64 --> 468.26] But those were also very expensive. +[468.70 --> 471.40] But then I like what they've done with Office, +[471.60 --> 474.44] having things like three packs for families, for example. +[474.84 --> 475.94] Because my whole issue... +[475.94 --> 476.56] Yeah, but they've, they've talked, +[476.72 --> 478.18] apparently the concept can be adapted +[478.18 --> 479.84] for three to five user family packages. +[479.90 --> 481.64] So that makes more sense to me. +[481.64 --> 483.46] Like, the big problem for me with Windows +[483.46 --> 487.08] is that it's very difficult for me to swallow +[487.08 --> 489.74] the, you know, 500 to 600 +[489.74 --> 493.18] to however many hundred dollars upgrade +[493.18 --> 494.56] every however long. +[495.00 --> 496.44] Like, I mean, they're releasing a new OS +[496.44 --> 497.68] every couple of years now. +[498.00 --> 500.28] So for me to absorb that every couple of years +[500.28 --> 503.12] to keep my entire house up to date is absurd. +[503.32 --> 503.98] To be completely honest, +[504.02 --> 505.32] you can probably skip every second one +[505.32 --> 505.94] because they're terrible. +[506.04 --> 506.66] Well, okay. +[506.76 --> 508.28] So let's say even every four years. +[508.28 --> 510.06] You can ignore eight, you can ignore ten. +[510.88 --> 511.98] Don't worry about it. +[512.34 --> 513.18] It's fine. +[514.72 --> 515.20] So... +[515.20 --> 515.86] But yeah, I hear you. +[516.36 --> 518.04] So that's, that's, I guess, +[518.16 --> 519.82] that's, I guess, what makes me both... +[520.50 --> 522.50] I do things a little bit differently, though. +[522.58 --> 524.48] I usually allot an amount of money +[524.48 --> 526.48] that I can spend on semi-frivolous things. +[526.72 --> 526.96] Right. +[527.04 --> 527.82] Every, like, month. +[527.82 --> 530.16] You consider Windows to be a frivolous thing? +[530.24 --> 530.82] Well, because I already have... +[530.82 --> 532.38] You must have a really exciting life. +[532.52 --> 533.00] Oh, yeah. +[533.38 --> 534.42] But I already have... +[534.42 --> 536.40] It's like, I'm kicking back this weekend. +[536.80 --> 538.78] I'm gonna go buy some Windows licenses. +[539.16 --> 539.76] You know what, though? +[539.76 --> 541.76] If I did, I would probably spend that weekend +[541.76 --> 543.00] just kind of tinkering with it. +[543.00 --> 544.48] I'm picking up a six-pack. +[545.32 --> 549.24] Go to my house. +[549.30 --> 550.36] We can have an install party. +[551.10 --> 552.52] Anyone who's been to an install party. +[552.68 --> 553.04] Oh, yeah. +[553.50 --> 555.24] Probably not that many people in the audience. +[555.36 --> 557.04] But those were a thing at one point in time. +[557.04 --> 561.68] Oh, NCIX did a Windows 8 launch party, remember? +[562.30 --> 563.40] We covered that thing. +[563.42 --> 563.98] Yeah, we did. +[564.00 --> 564.86] Yeah, that was weird. +[564.88 --> 566.50] But no, like, straight-up install parties. +[566.62 --> 568.60] They used to be really popular for Linux early in the day +[568.60 --> 570.14] when it was really hard to figure out things. +[570.26 --> 572.36] You'd have, like, developers and stuff come down +[572.36 --> 574.28] and everyone would help each other install +[574.28 --> 575.06] on all their machines +[575.06 --> 576.14] and, like, create custom drivers +[576.14 --> 577.54] if they're having issues and stuff like that. +[577.62 --> 578.12] Install parties. +[578.32 --> 578.82] They used to be a thing. +[578.94 --> 579.68] Install parties, man. +[580.14 --> 580.44] All right. +[580.52 --> 582.14] Anyway, what were we even talking about? +[582.24 --> 583.12] So, I guess... +[583.12 --> 583.86] Okay, what's your thought? +[584.12 --> 584.58] Yay or nay? +[584.86 --> 587.02] Okay, let's put up a hypothetical. +[587.04 --> 589.00] It's a hypothetical the way that it's implemented. +[589.46 --> 590.76] And then I'll let you go yay or nay. +[590.84 --> 591.70] And if there's no issues +[591.70 --> 592.96] and this is how it's implemented, +[593.02 --> 594.20] then I actually kind of like it. +[594.20 --> 596.78] So, basically, it's your online account. +[596.86 --> 598.92] I mean, I'd love for them to just do it through Steam. +[599.70 --> 599.96] Yeah. +[600.06 --> 600.94] If there's a way to do that. +[601.22 --> 601.80] They won't. +[601.90 --> 603.90] Let's say it basically works exactly like Steam. +[604.00 --> 605.08] So, you log into your account, +[605.24 --> 606.40] you download your ISO, +[606.40 --> 609.38] and then you assign the license according to whatever, +[609.48 --> 611.00] the serial number of your motherboard or whatever else. +[611.36 --> 614.80] And then, basically, the way it works is you buy a license +[614.80 --> 618.32] and then you can upgrade your license to, like, a three-pack +[618.32 --> 620.38] or a five-pack or something like that. +[620.42 --> 623.18] And you can manage all of your machines within this one account. +[623.18 --> 625.68] If they do it really well, it's really streamlined +[625.68 --> 627.86] and there's no bullshit with me switching between machines +[627.86 --> 629.86] because my motherboard and whatever the frick +[629.86 --> 631.28] that I was scared about at the beginning, +[631.42 --> 633.46] which apparently in this they've dealt with that. +[633.46 --> 635.34] If there's none of that, then I'm cool with it. +[635.46 --> 635.72] Okay. +[636.16 --> 638.28] Because, honestly, Windows is pirated way too much. +[638.86 --> 642.52] And if it is very streamlined and very easy for me, +[643.24 --> 644.02] I'm okay with it. +[644.32 --> 644.64] Okay. +[645.06 --> 646.70] But it has to not be... +[646.70 --> 648.58] Because the biggest problem right now is +[648.58 --> 651.16] I honestly know people that pirate Windows +[651.16 --> 655.60] only because it's extremely hard to maintain your Windows copy +[655.60 --> 657.26] if you do a lot of PC upgrades. +[657.46 --> 659.18] I mean, that's the reason that... +[659.18 --> 661.82] I mean, a lot of people ask why on our test bench machines +[661.82 --> 664.86] it always says this copy is not genuine in the bottom corner. +[665.20 --> 666.46] It's not because they're pirated. +[666.58 --> 668.34] In fact, if they were pirated, they wouldn't say that. +[668.46 --> 668.56] Yeah. +[669.18 --> 672.42] The reason that most of the test bench machines say that +[672.42 --> 674.68] is because as soon as you swap hardware, +[675.20 --> 676.46] that message starts popping up. +[676.46 --> 678.76] Unless it's like my GPU test bench +[678.76 --> 680.72] because it won't freak out when you change GPUs +[680.72 --> 682.78] and that test bench has been the same for a really long time. +[683.14 --> 684.50] So, like, certain test benches won't say that. +[684.56 --> 685.84] But if you see that sometimes, that's why. +[685.92 --> 688.34] And sometimes it's like they'll look for... +[688.34 --> 690.04] Okay, you can swap the GPU as many times as you want. +[690.04 --> 692.72] But as soon as you change the RAM and the GPU, +[693.54 --> 694.58] now it's going to freak out. +[694.72 --> 695.16] Or something. +[695.48 --> 698.24] I don't think anyone quite knows exactly how the system works. +[698.30 --> 700.10] But the point is that when it's a bench +[700.10 --> 701.88] that we're swapping things in and out of all the time, +[702.06 --> 704.42] they inevitably do that. +[704.60 --> 706.62] And it doesn't affect any of the benchmark results anyway. +[706.86 --> 707.62] So what are we going to do? +[707.74 --> 709.08] Call them up every time? +[709.34 --> 709.54] No. +[709.92 --> 710.48] That's ridiculous. +[710.74 --> 711.10] Sometimes. +[711.28 --> 712.08] But just, like, yeah. +[712.66 --> 713.00] No. +[713.00 --> 714.96] So if it actually worked really streamlined, +[715.10 --> 716.46] like if every time I changed something, +[716.68 --> 718.02] it would just be like, +[718.14 --> 720.24] oh, you have too many machines activated. +[720.48 --> 722.06] And I could just be like, deactivate this one. +[722.12 --> 723.36] And it was like, okay, perfect. +[723.60 --> 723.88] Done. +[724.10 --> 725.18] That would be sweet. +[725.36 --> 727.22] So as much as this is somewhat good news, +[727.30 --> 731.86] I still have to wonder if paid OS has a place in the modern world +[731.86 --> 734.80] with Apple giving it away, Google giving it away. +[734.86 --> 737.98] Well, if it becomes extremely difficult to actually pirate Windows, +[738.40 --> 739.60] that could help Linux a lot. +[739.60 --> 740.64] Yeah. +[742.72 --> 743.26] All right. +[743.30 --> 745.12] So we have the results from the straw poll. +[745.62 --> 748.84] Oh, at least we would if my capture was working. +[749.42 --> 751.58] That's going to be inconvenient today. +[752.00 --> 754.70] I can't believe I didn't check this before we started streaming. +[755.20 --> 756.84] That is extremely unfortunate. +[757.06 --> 757.40] Get it? +[759.32 --> 760.36] Extremely unfortunate. +[760.94 --> 762.94] I'm just going to go check and make sure the cables actually did. +[762.94 --> 764.42] Actually, no, we don't get that at all. +[764.88 --> 767.82] Because every once in a while it comes out and then that's bad. +[767.82 --> 771.26] Why is extremely unfortunate funny? +[772.08 --> 773.34] When I don't have, wait, what? +[773.90 --> 775.14] Stream, because we're streaming. +[775.44 --> 775.68] Oh. +[776.28 --> 776.84] See, it's funny. +[776.90 --> 777.22] It's a pun. +[778.26 --> 779.62] You wouldn't understand, apparently. +[780.56 --> 781.06] All right. +[781.32 --> 785.40] So I wanted to show them the results of that. +[786.28 --> 788.44] But you know what? +[788.62 --> 790.10] I'm going to let you do the next topic. +[790.30 --> 792.32] And I'm just going to go get the live game reportable. +[792.62 --> 794.96] Because it actually works, unlike these Black Magic cards. +[794.96 --> 797.44] Do you want to hear about something that's probably going to suck? +[799.36 --> 799.84] Really? +[799.94 --> 800.52] You think so? +[800.76 --> 801.04] Yeah. +[801.74 --> 803.08] Oh, come on. +[803.14 --> 803.34] Okay. +[803.42 --> 808.00] So this was originally posted on the forum by Bloodwithice. +[808.48 --> 810.02] And Kinect for Windows. +[810.16 --> 811.40] I see it. +[811.44 --> 812.12] I see it. +[812.34 --> 813.02] I know. +[813.40 --> 816.18] Kinect for Windows V2 is finally coming. +[816.18 --> 819.22] Now, I remember how laughable it was. +[819.92 --> 824.20] Back when they were showing off Kinect for PC. +[824.48 --> 828.42] And they were showing off some of the medical applications, for example. +[828.68 --> 831.44] Were you there at the Microsoft booth at Computex last year? +[831.50 --> 833.32] I saw some stuff about it. +[833.34 --> 833.98] I wasn't there, though. +[834.12 --> 834.30] Okay. +[834.30 --> 835.50] It was super cool. +[835.72 --> 842.78] So you could just make a 3D model of something just by putting it on a rotating platform in front of a Kinect. +[842.82 --> 847.74] But obviously the resolution is just not good enough because it's a Kinect V1 and it's stupid. +[848.12 --> 854.82] So the amount of disappointment that I had when Xbox One launched and Microsoft was like, +[854.82 --> 856.56] no Kinect on PC. +[856.98 --> 858.12] Don't worry about it. +[859.42 --> 859.86] Yay. +[860.04 --> 867.02] Because to me, that was the only good thing that could possibly come out of Kinect V2 was putting it on the PC and letting developers... +[867.02 --> 868.56] It should have just been a USB cable and it should have just worked. +[868.66 --> 869.36] Yes, it should have. +[869.36 --> 873.18] There is no reason why Kinect shouldn't just connect with a USB cable. +[873.34 --> 873.84] Not at all. +[873.98 --> 875.56] There's a lot of things like that, actually. +[876.84 --> 877.26] But okay. +[877.40 --> 877.78] Anyway. +[878.00 --> 879.60] It's going to be $200, most likely. +[880.02 --> 880.80] Full 1080p. +[881.18 --> 882.78] Released July 15th. +[882.78 --> 888.24] The problem that I see with it is that it's not shipping with its Windows SDK 2. +[888.82 --> 891.02] And they have no price for that right now. +[891.10 --> 895.24] So if it's not coming with that bundled in, you're not going to see massive adoption for it. +[895.24 --> 898.80] And I don't see a lot of really big games building in support for Kinect. +[901.28 --> 901.72] Sorry. +[902.60 --> 903.20] I don't know. +[904.36 --> 905.38] I don't really... +[905.38 --> 907.54] It doesn't make a ton of sense, in my opinion. +[907.70 --> 909.50] I can see some people doing it. +[909.54 --> 911.48] The $200 isn't too bad. +[911.48 --> 919.26] But something to think about is that the Leap Motion, which has way more support right now and is cheaper, also exists. +[919.86 --> 922.62] And not all that many people are kind of jumping all over the Leap Motion. +[923.28 --> 928.48] And the Kinect 1, when it worked on PC, didn't exactly get a huge amount of adoption. +[929.00 --> 935.00] Most of the stuff you're seeing with Kinect 1 was hacker-type people making their own little applications that they didn't even necessarily share. +[935.00 --> 937.40] And then that was almost it. +[938.48 --> 939.28] So I don't know. +[939.34 --> 942.50] I don't know if the adoption for this is going to be super huge. +[942.58 --> 948.36] We see tons of stuff coming out right now, which is going to take a lot of custom work to work into people's games and stuff. +[948.94 --> 952.02] And I don't see people being able to cater to all of them. +[952.16 --> 955.60] There's that Tobii thing that SteelSeries is working on for eye tracking. +[955.60 --> 956.84] There's Oculus. +[957.18 --> 958.46] There's Control VR. +[958.88 --> 959.66] There's Kinect. +[959.78 --> 960.62] There's Leap Motion. +[960.88 --> 963.08] There's so many different things. +[963.70 --> 964.90] And it's way too saturated. +[965.24 --> 970.30] And as a game developer, sitting down, are you actually going to pick Kinect as one of the things that you're going to really work on? +[970.36 --> 976.30] I guess for me, the thing is that I don't even really see it as necessarily a gaming play. +[976.30 --> 982.48] I think it's interesting and much more interesting in things outside of gaming, to be honest. +[982.98 --> 986.42] I see it much more interesting in terms of what you're talking about, 3D scanning. +[986.68 --> 988.24] 3D printers are a huge deal. +[988.46 --> 992.18] 3D scanning and 3D printing with something higher res than Kinect 1. +[992.52 --> 993.90] I think that could be really cool. +[994.00 --> 994.38] Freaking cool. +[994.38 --> 996.62] I don't see this being a huge thing in terms of gaming. +[996.80 --> 998.24] That's why I always remember that a little bit. +[998.24 --> 1012.70] Things like, even if the software development kit is somewhat expensive, with $200 hardware, if all of a sudden you can do really great motion capture, for example, that's awesome. +[1013.00 --> 1013.78] That's really cool. +[1013.78 --> 1019.64] So that's the kind of thing that, again, I don't expect this to make a huge difference to the average Joe immediately. +[1020.06 --> 1022.80] But I'm glad they're finally doing it. +[1022.84 --> 1024.10] I wish they would have done it right away. +[1024.40 --> 1025.76] And that's sort of what I have to say about that. +[1025.90 --> 1027.00] I wouldn't be surprised. +[1027.02 --> 1027.50] Whose side are you on? +[1027.50 --> 1029.70] Potato Salad is the big winner. +[1029.84 --> 1031.08] Didn't we agree with each other on this? +[1031.54 --> 1031.96] On what? +[1032.22 --> 1032.58] On this? +[1033.66 --> 1039.08] No, I didn't agree that they should be on your side and Potato Salad above me. +[1039.26 --> 1040.44] Why would I agree on that? +[1040.94 --> 1042.60] No, weren't we on the same side? +[1042.88 --> 1043.40] About what? +[1043.78 --> 1044.74] Wasn't this the Microsoft... +[1044.74 --> 1048.30] No, I just asked them whose side they were on in general. +[1048.46 --> 1049.76] No, it was nothing to do with Microsoft. +[1050.00 --> 1050.62] It was just in general. +[1050.78 --> 1051.92] So basically... +[1051.92 --> 1052.20] Correct. +[1052.20 --> 1054.86] In the popularity contest of Me vs. You... +[1054.86 --> 1055.20] Correct. +[1055.20 --> 1058.10] Potato Salad is more popular than either of us. +[1058.10 --> 1061.38] But I wanted to bring up the Potato Salad topic, so that just gets added to my score. +[1062.16 --> 1062.52] Correct? +[1062.92 --> 1064.50] Yeah, that's how it works. +[1064.98 --> 1065.48] That is how it works. +[1065.48 --> 1066.74] Do you even know anything about math? +[1066.74 --> 1071.80] All right, so Adblock Plus. +[1071.80 --> 1076.84] Oh, Adblock is being sued by some Germans for something. +[1077.22 --> 1078.56] The point is they're being sued. +[1078.66 --> 1083.30] The original poster on the forum was Victorious Secret, and the original source is over at +[1083.30 --> 1084.60] neowind.net. +[1084.68 --> 1086.06] So we're going to go ahead and... +[1086.06 --> 1087.10] There's the original article. +[1087.28 --> 1089.38] So we all know what Adblock does. +[1089.60 --> 1093.98] Adblock lets you block those pesky ads. +[1093.98 --> 1095.38] Oh my god, it's in the name! +[1095.58 --> 1099.92] Heaven forbid a content creator actually get paid for doing the work that they do. +[1099.92 --> 1103.14] I was talking to people today about how 5 Gallon Buckets makes more money than Linus +[1103.14 --> 1103.48] Tectives. +[1103.72 --> 1104.10] Yeah. +[1104.32 --> 1105.30] That kind of blew their brain. +[1105.78 --> 1106.74] 5GallonBuckets.com. +[1106.82 --> 1108.06] More profitable than Linus Tectives. +[1109.92 --> 1110.32] Crap. +[1110.32 --> 1115.94] Anyway, the point is that that's how content creators get paid, and blocking ads is basically +[1115.94 --> 1117.48] a scummy thing to do in the first place. +[1117.48 --> 1123.84] So, should it surprise us that this company that exists for the sole... that sole product +[1123.84 --> 1133.00] is all about avoiding other... having people avoid having someone else get paid, turns out +[1133.00 --> 1136.22] that they're just potentially, allegedly, kind of scummy. +[1136.22 --> 1141.82] So, the word on the street right now, and the reason that they're being sued, is not necessarily +[1141.82 --> 1146.16] just because some company is butthurt that they're not getting paid because Adblock is +[1146.16 --> 1147.96] allowing users to circumvent their ads. +[1147.96 --> 1148.96] No. +[1148.96 --> 1154.78] What they're actually being accused of is that... is having an illegal business model. +[1154.78 --> 1160.58] So, it was recently reported that Google has been paying money in order to allow its ads +[1160.58 --> 1163.10] to pass through Adblock Plus. +[1164.10 --> 1168.66] So, that is... that is some dirty... dirty stuff going on. +[1168.66 --> 1168.68] It is so dirty. +[1169.02 --> 1171.10] That is... that is... that is super gross. +[1171.18 --> 1173.70] People are like, yeah, Adblock isn't illegal as far as I know. +[1173.74 --> 1174.40] You know, it's not. +[1174.60 --> 1174.76] Nope. +[1174.76 --> 1175.00] It's not. +[1175.10 --> 1182.60] But what... but what is, like, some scary mafia bullshit tactics is protection money, man. +[1182.70 --> 1183.96] Letting... letting Google pay through. +[1183.96 --> 1186.34] And that is basically what we're talking about. +[1186.34 --> 1192.98] That... we're talking Adblock turning their business model, if this is true, into basically +[1192.98 --> 1194.86] a way of double dipping. +[1195.48 --> 1200.88] Charging ad creators double in order to get people to actually see the ads. +[1201.40 --> 1202.86] I mean, wow. +[1203.36 --> 1206.22] It's kind of awesome, but awesome in a terrible way. +[1207.24 --> 1208.68] Like, horrible. +[1209.00 --> 1213.76] And I can't wait till this becomes... if... if the German guys don't win. +[1213.96 --> 1217.72] If this becomes a much bigger thing, you can just go to Adblock's site and be like, yeah, +[1217.76 --> 1219.90] I want you to unblock this whole website. +[1220.36 --> 1223.06] Like, if we could, like, pay to get line-stack tips unblocked. +[1223.14 --> 1224.20] That would be hilarious. +[1224.20 --> 1229.08] Because that would become really widespread and then Adblock would be useless and then +[1229.08 --> 1230.20] people would just stop using it anyways. +[1230.22 --> 1230.66] You know what? +[1230.76 --> 1235.52] It's... a lot of the time it's the, you know, internet liberation, whatever, blah, blah, +[1235.58 --> 1236.94] blah, the internet should be free. +[1236.94 --> 1238.14] Everything should be free. +[1238.14 --> 1241.46] That are trumpeting the merits of Adblock. +[1241.82 --> 1246.86] And then you look at what Adblock's doing, and this is no less dirty than trying to circumvent +[1246.86 --> 1248.06] something like net neutrality. +[1248.66 --> 1250.36] It is equally dirty. +[1250.70 --> 1254.16] Creating tiered delivery systems on the internet is wrong. +[1254.60 --> 1254.94] Period. +[1255.54 --> 1256.20] So, guys... +[1256.20 --> 1259.38] Because then you're going to have to be able to afford to make money on the internet. +[1259.66 --> 1265.60] You're going to have to be able to afford to pay the content creator to advertise, and +[1265.60 --> 1269.96] you're going to have to afford to pay the Adblock mafia to allow your ad through. +[1270.84 --> 1272.64] Someone just said in the Twitch chat, Adblock is great. +[1272.70 --> 1274.16] I'd never internet again without it. +[1274.24 --> 1275.20] I seriously doubt it. +[1275.20 --> 1275.78] Yeah, I doubt it. +[1275.84 --> 1281.08] And as an Adblock user, you should hold them accountable for this in some way. +[1281.38 --> 1285.20] So if you guys are going to go and be crusaders about whatever it is you'd be crusaders about, +[1285.46 --> 1286.28] this is one of them. +[1286.30 --> 1288.94] You've got to also attack Adblock for what they're doing. +[1289.24 --> 1289.94] I'm not even saying... +[1289.94 --> 1291.04] I'm not even saying right now... +[1291.04 --> 1293.06] Do I personally want people to use Adblock? +[1293.28 --> 1293.52] No. +[1293.66 --> 1294.58] I'm a content creator. +[1295.58 --> 1298.32] My survival is ads. +[1298.66 --> 1300.38] So I like people to watch ads. +[1300.50 --> 1300.86] It's good. +[1300.98 --> 1303.64] I appreciate when they watch and listen to our sponsors and all that. +[1303.64 --> 1305.54] But am I telling you guys right now, +[1305.92 --> 1308.02] go and uninstall your Adblock because they're bad people? +[1308.14 --> 1308.28] No. +[1308.38 --> 1309.32] I'm saying do something. +[1309.68 --> 1313.40] Because this is a bad people thing to do. +[1313.82 --> 1316.14] At least let them know that that's not okay. +[1316.22 --> 1316.98] And you're not going to... +[1316.98 --> 1319.88] If you attack Adblock for this, they're not going to shut down. +[1320.24 --> 1323.56] And it's one thing if Adblock is completely blocking ads, +[1323.74 --> 1325.40] and it's another thing if they're not. +[1326.08 --> 1327.50] These are both legal. +[1328.10 --> 1332.44] But the accusation right now is that allowing the ones that +[1332.44 --> 1335.62] they get paid to allow is not legal because +[1335.62 --> 1338.64] that's not what the end user signed up for. +[1338.84 --> 1341.92] That's certainly not what the ad server or the content creator had in mind. +[1342.14 --> 1346.00] They're basically just playing around with it in their own little sandbox over there. +[1346.60 --> 1348.84] Speaking of sandboxes, potato salad. +[1349.22 --> 1349.70] Kickstarter. +[1350.94 --> 1352.32] We're flying through topics. +[1352.32 --> 1357.16] It really is just the ultimate playground right now, isn't it? +[1357.26 --> 1361.00] One thing I got to drop first is that we're at about $47,000 now. +[1361.10 --> 1362.70] We were at $70,000 before. +[1362.82 --> 1363.96] So a lot of people have pulled back. +[1364.02 --> 1365.74] I shouldn't say we because it wasn't us. +[1365.88 --> 1366.70] This was not our idea. +[1366.92 --> 1367.24] Neither of us. +[1368.02 --> 1368.30] Nope. +[1368.50 --> 1371.66] So everyone's pretty much heard about it at this point. +[1371.84 --> 1373.62] It's some guy posted on Kickstarter. +[1373.72 --> 1374.78] He's making potato salad. +[1374.78 --> 1380.30] The perks are just stuff like getting better mayonnaise from the natural food section, +[1380.62 --> 1385.84] calling a chef to get a better recipe, stuff like that. +[1386.18 --> 1386.78] And it's... +[1387.86 --> 1390.06] I don't even know what else I had to say about it. +[1390.06 --> 1390.80] It's super stupid. +[1391.00 --> 1393.90] There's a whole bunch of different stretch goals, too, like he was just talking about. +[1394.18 --> 1399.00] Like at $3,000, which he's massively passed, and he's not putting any more stretch goals. +[1399.30 --> 1400.98] Who's being exploited here? +[1401.16 --> 1403.02] Because I feel like someone must be. +[1403.02 --> 1405.68] I don't know. +[1406.12 --> 1411.02] I mean, if people voluntarily give their money because they think it's funny... +[1412.04 --> 1413.02] I mean... +[1413.02 --> 1418.48] My favorite thing, too, is like the hat and the t-shirt, which they're like, +[1418.52 --> 1422.10] yeah, you get a hat or a t-shirt, but there's no graphics of it, so you have no idea what it's going to be. +[1422.80 --> 1425.28] Yeah, it just says potato salad-themed hat. +[1425.74 --> 1428.70] Helvetica letters that say potato salad. +[1428.96 --> 1429.62] Yeah, yeah. +[1429.62 --> 1430.92] I mean, you know what? +[1430.96 --> 1434.22] If I was a backer of this, that would probably be what I would want. +[1434.42 --> 1439.16] It would be whatever goofy thing that the internet thinks is funny, and that would be it. +[1439.24 --> 1439.62] I mean, I guess... +[1439.62 --> 1443.34] So potato salad with like a cat wrapped around in a bowl and rainbows? +[1443.94 --> 1445.98] You know, I don't know. +[1446.14 --> 1447.28] And an EA logo on the back. +[1447.28 --> 1449.84] I want to make a comparison to gambling here. +[1450.72 --> 1451.96] Because gambling... +[1451.96 --> 1456.54] But when you talk to gamblers, like there's the addicts, and then there's the people who gamble for fun. +[1456.76 --> 1459.44] And they'll tell you, look, it's not about winning. +[1459.86 --> 1464.84] It's about, I paid $200, and I had $200 worth of entertainment. +[1464.84 --> 1468.10] And if they win, then great. +[1468.34 --> 1471.00] And if they lose, then they paid for entertainment, and that's what it is. +[1471.30 --> 1472.56] So is this... +[1472.56 --> 1480.74] Is it wrong, and is it stupid if people are genuinely $10 worth of entertainmented by giving $10 to this, +[1481.40 --> 1483.34] and did they get their money's worth then? +[1483.68 --> 1485.74] Some of the stuff I really like is... +[1485.74 --> 1488.02] And I'm going to tie into what you just said in a moment. +[1488.02 --> 1493.80] But some of the stuff I really just like is the $3 tier, where you get a bite of potato salad. +[1494.36 --> 1496.64] He sold that to a thousand people. +[1497.98 --> 1499.34] He's got to make a lot of potato salad. +[1500.40 --> 1501.90] Yeah, a thousand bites of potato salad. +[1501.92 --> 1503.78] But I guess that does kind of tie in. +[1503.92 --> 1510.74] So if you donated $3, is it worth it so that one day you'll get potato salad in the mail, +[1511.52 --> 1515.12] and you can Instagram it or tweet it to your friends or post it on Facebook or whatever, +[1515.12 --> 1519.68] and be like, LOL, look, I just got potato salad in the mail because of this Kickstarter thing that I backed. +[1519.80 --> 1521.16] Is that worth the $3? Maybe. +[1521.36 --> 1527.28] I mean, it's funny because we have such different standards for different entertainment media +[1527.28 --> 1529.82] in terms of how much we're willing to pay. +[1530.34 --> 1533.42] Like, for some reason, we're okay paying, you know... +[1533.42 --> 1538.20] I mean, by the time you take a lady friend with you, buy a popcorn, buy a drink... +[1538.20 --> 1538.78] Like $60? +[1539.28 --> 1541.78] It's $20... Well, I was going to say like $25, $30. +[1542.08 --> 1544.04] I don't know what kind of popcorn you're buying, but... +[1544.04 --> 1546.50] Dude, two popcorns and two drinks is like $25. +[1546.78 --> 1547.82] What, you bought her popcorn? +[1549.82 --> 1551.30] And you didn't bring your own drink? +[1551.90 --> 1552.92] I thought you were going to say... +[1552.92 --> 1553.12] What are you, stupid? +[1553.30 --> 1554.82] I thought you were going to say, and you didn't bring me. +[1555.60 --> 1556.26] Yeah, really? +[1557.70 --> 1558.90] You bought her popcorn? +[1559.50 --> 1562.18] You didn't buy popcorn for me? +[1563.68 --> 1565.30] Maybe that was where I was going to the next. +[1565.30 --> 1570.56] Actually, me, I always make sure that we eat before we go because I'm never buying that stupid crap. +[1570.86 --> 1571.82] It's way too expensive. +[1571.82 --> 1573.58] Okay, well, let's say you only buy tickets. +[1573.72 --> 1576.60] Let's say you're a complete cheapskate like the two men in this room. +[1577.76 --> 1582.34] And you still paid like $25 to go and be entertained for an hour and a half. +[1582.34 --> 1590.44] And then you get people upset over a playtime of six hours for a AAA game that they paid $60 for. +[1590.94 --> 1592.18] It's like, well, hold on a second. +[1592.42 --> 1592.90] And I'm not saying you're... +[1592.90 --> 1595.62] Even some people are upset when it's like 10, 15 hours. +[1595.76 --> 1596.96] And I'm not saying you're wrong. +[1596.96 --> 1601.52] I was pretty upset about episode five of Wolf Among Us. +[1602.10 --> 1605.04] I was like, yeah, that was an hour of playtime. +[1605.30 --> 1606.58] And like a third of it... +[1606.58 --> 1607.16] Spoiler alert. +[1608.94 --> 1614.22] And like a third of it is stupid fight scenes that aren't even as good as the ones in the previous games +[1614.22 --> 1615.58] and this like weird chase. +[1615.80 --> 1622.32] And then the rest of it is the most predictable dialogue crap ever. +[1622.80 --> 1624.00] I was so disappointed. +[1624.00 --> 1626.90] Like episodes one and two, awesome. +[1627.36 --> 1630.76] And then it's like they got the Game of Thrones franchise and they're like, okay, +[1630.94 --> 1639.46] we need to like pinch out this Wolf Among Us thing as fast as we can so that we can make all the money making Game of Thrones games. +[1639.52 --> 1639.96] That's probably it too. +[1639.98 --> 1641.00] Which is probably... +[1641.00 --> 1643.48] I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but there you go. +[1643.78 --> 1644.44] Anyway, so those... +[1644.44 --> 1645.70] Another thing I want to bring up is... +[1645.70 --> 1647.02] What are we even talking about anymore? +[1647.10 --> 1647.60] Potato salad. +[1647.74 --> 1652.00] But another thing I want to bring up is that the amount of tears where he has to say thank you +[1652.00 --> 1657.18] during making the potato salad, he has to say thank you to like 4,000 something people. +[1658.14 --> 1660.40] Like the first tier, you get it for a dollar. +[1660.56 --> 1662.70] So 1,745 people back that. +[1662.94 --> 1665.76] The second tier you get it, 1,058 people back that. +[1665.92 --> 1668.82] The third tier you get it, 1,020 people back that. +[1668.96 --> 1671.08] I think it's probably going to go through the whole thing. +[1671.14 --> 1674.14] Do you think he's bitten off more than he can chew? +[1674.14 --> 1678.12] Do you bite off a piece of potato salad? +[1680.56 --> 1682.44] You'd have to make like a potato salad bar. +[1683.00 --> 1684.74] You know what's funny? +[1685.04 --> 1686.26] Fancy restaurants, man. +[1686.42 --> 1687.20] I swear. +[1687.56 --> 1690.26] The less prepared the food is, the more expensive it is. +[1690.26 --> 1691.68] The less prepared and the more stacked. +[1692.64 --> 1693.02] Think about it. +[1693.06 --> 1695.58] The less fancy the restaurant is, the more flat your plate is. +[1695.68 --> 1697.90] When you go to a fancy restaurant, they just put everything in a pile. +[1697.90 --> 1699.28] So, here. +[1699.56 --> 1703.06] Like these are basically just the stupidest thing ever. +[1703.18 --> 1706.56] I went to a restaurant once and like it was someone else's treat. +[1706.74 --> 1708.90] I never eat at places like this. +[1709.40 --> 1712.60] And I was just like, how do I eat this? +[1713.26 --> 1714.82] This is called a wedge salad. +[1714.82 --> 1716.42] I was like, what the hell is this? +[1716.76 --> 1717.64] That's so stupid. +[1718.08 --> 1720.72] Basically, they just quarter a thing of iceberg lettuce. +[1720.84 --> 1722.30] It's not even expensive lettuce. +[1722.74 --> 1723.58] Iceberg lettuce. +[1724.08 --> 1726.10] Like they're like, what, 60 cents a head. +[1726.10 --> 1729.08] And then they put like bacon and stuff on it. +[1729.12 --> 1730.96] And it's like, yeah, we prepared this. +[1731.06 --> 1734.02] And the guy's like, oh, yeah, you use a fork and a knife. +[1734.34 --> 1734.92] I'm like, what? +[1735.16 --> 1739.26] So, I, and it was like $25 for the salad or something like that. +[1739.26 --> 1740.50] And I'm like, so what? +[1740.56 --> 1742.80] I pay more and they prepare it less. +[1743.24 --> 1748.00] So, in my mind, if he made the fanciest potato salad ever, +[1748.26 --> 1750.04] it would actually be whole potatoes. +[1752.04 --> 1754.46] A potato that you like mashed an egg into. +[1756.10 --> 1758.18] And it's drizzled over the top. +[1758.66 --> 1760.76] It's like how-to basic potato salad edition. +[1761.18 --> 1762.46] It's like put a whole bunch of potato, +[1762.62 --> 1764.42] throw a whole bunch of potatoes into a bowl, +[1764.58 --> 1767.08] and then take a whole thing of eggs and just throw it into the bowl. +[1767.18 --> 1768.00] And then be like, there. +[1768.60 --> 1770.36] Here's your freaking potato salad. +[1771.06 --> 1772.20] Green onions are extra. +[1772.62 --> 1776.90] How-to basic the restaurant would be a scary place to eat. +[1776.90 --> 1779.72] But there's so many people that would go to it. +[1779.84 --> 1780.46] I know, right? +[1782.28 --> 1783.36] I'd almost want to go. +[1783.98 --> 1787.34] Did I tell you about my restaurant concept that I had a little while ago? +[1787.52 --> 1787.72] No. +[1788.12 --> 1788.40] Okay. +[1788.50 --> 1791.22] I had an idea that I actually think is amazing. +[1791.82 --> 1796.02] So, kind of themed fun restaurants are a bit of a thing. +[1796.22 --> 1797.36] Sorry, I'm going to interject real quick. +[1797.46 --> 1800.68] He quite literally has to say thank you to all 5,808 people. +[1800.82 --> 1800.98] Excellent. +[1800.98 --> 1802.34] Every single tier has that included. +[1802.34 --> 1805.16] And given how many people have names that are impossible to pronounce, +[1805.28 --> 1805.98] that's going to be a challenge. +[1806.16 --> 1806.36] It is. +[1806.48 --> 1808.42] Anyway, there's one called, what is it called? +[1808.48 --> 1808.86] Dark Table? +[1809.26 --> 1809.52] Yes. +[1809.72 --> 1813.72] Dark Table, where the entire restaurant is completely blacked out. +[1813.74 --> 1815.68] The unfortunate thing about Dark Table in Vancouver +[1815.68 --> 1819.88] is that the entry door doesn't have like a spacing at the beginning. +[1820.62 --> 1822.00] Oh, so when people open up the door? +[1822.30 --> 1824.48] So, when you open up the door, you get light. +[1824.56 --> 1824.74] Right. +[1824.84 --> 1826.20] And the bathroom is the same way. +[1826.20 --> 1828.12] And Dark Tables in other cities, +[1828.12 --> 1832.38] there's usually some type of like dark room in between the dining area +[1832.38 --> 1833.60] and a dark room in between the bathroom. +[1834.00 --> 1834.20] Okay. +[1834.30 --> 1834.60] So, anyway. +[1834.74 --> 1837.28] So, Dark Table, it's completely blacked out inside +[1837.28 --> 1840.66] and it's supposed to be kind of like having the experience of being blind. +[1840.76 --> 1842.48] All the waiters and waitresses are blind. +[1842.70 --> 1843.56] The cooks are not. +[1844.00 --> 1844.24] Okay. +[1844.60 --> 1846.36] So, Dark Table is kind of cool. +[1846.64 --> 1847.34] And I was like, okay. +[1847.42 --> 1851.32] So, if people are into this whole like interesting dining experience thing, +[1851.32 --> 1855.58] I was thinking of having, there should be a restaurant +[1855.58 --> 1859.54] where all the food is incredibly awkward and difficult to eat. +[1860.96 --> 1861.76] So, I thought... +[1861.76 --> 1862.60] That should be hilarious. +[1862.92 --> 1866.12] It would be the ultimate icebreaker first date +[1866.12 --> 1868.36] or like double date place to go. +[1868.80 --> 1872.22] So, you could have dishes like single noodle spaghetti +[1872.22 --> 1874.60] where the entire thing is one noodle +[1874.60 --> 1876.40] and you don't give them a spoon or a knife. +[1876.86 --> 1879.54] So, basically, you just have to like... +[1879.54 --> 1883.08] Like the chop it off with your teeth thing? +[1883.10 --> 1883.24] Yeah. +[1883.34 --> 1886.04] So, the idea is just that if everyone looks like an idiot, +[1886.32 --> 1888.30] then no one has to worry about, +[1888.52 --> 1889.54] oh, I spilled a little bit +[1889.54 --> 1891.42] or I have something dripping down my elbows. +[1891.68 --> 1893.22] Like, you could have sandwiches +[1893.22 --> 1895.74] with just like basically, you know, +[1896.22 --> 1899.74] disgusting amounts of sauce intentionally on one side of it. +[1899.84 --> 1900.56] Like eat from this side. +[1900.56 --> 1901.48] So, that it will go out. +[1901.48 --> 1902.16] And then it will... +[1902.16 --> 1903.48] So, it'll just drip down your elbows. +[1903.62 --> 1904.68] Just stuff like that +[1904.68 --> 1906.24] where you want things to still be delicious +[1906.24 --> 1909.36] but they would be intentionally socially awkward to eat. +[1910.16 --> 1912.30] And like the rules would be +[1912.30 --> 1913.74] whatever utensils we bring you, +[1913.82 --> 1915.20] that's all you can use to eat it. +[1915.32 --> 1918.58] They only give you like no utensils at all +[1918.58 --> 1919.26] so they don't give you any +[1919.26 --> 1921.10] and it's sushi that's way too big to fit in your mouth. +[1921.38 --> 1921.72] Yeah. +[1921.86 --> 1922.92] Like stuff like that, right? +[1922.96 --> 1923.32] Yeah, yeah. +[1923.52 --> 1924.98] So, you'd have to like destroy it +[1924.98 --> 1926.08] or mash it in your mouth. +[1926.24 --> 1926.60] Yes. +[1927.14 --> 1928.28] See, that kind of thing. +[1928.32 --> 1929.52] I think that would be a lot of fun. +[1929.60 --> 1930.58] That would actually probably be a lot of fun. +[1930.58 --> 1932.78] Someone needs to have that restaurant. +[1933.30 --> 1934.84] Maybe this potato salad guy +[1934.84 --> 1935.88] should start that restaurant. +[1935.88 --> 1936.24] Yeah. +[1936.24 --> 1938.32] With his like $47,000. +[1938.82 --> 1939.82] That's not even... +[1939.82 --> 1941.22] Yeah, I guess that's a lot of money. +[1941.82 --> 1942.94] Not enough to start a restaurant. +[1943.12 --> 1943.60] That's what I meant. +[1943.64 --> 1944.90] I meant that in the context of +[1944.90 --> 1946.18] not enough to start a restaurant. +[1946.36 --> 1947.14] Not like... +[1947.14 --> 1948.50] I am so... +[1948.50 --> 1948.90] I meant that he's so loaded +[1948.90 --> 1951.14] that $40,000 is not a lot of money to him. +[1951.14 --> 1952.06] It is going to be interesting though +[1952.06 --> 1953.52] because with that $47,000 +[1953.52 --> 1956.22] he has to make a recipe book +[1956.22 --> 1957.10] for potato salad. +[1957.52 --> 1958.46] He has to ship out... +[1958.46 --> 1959.06] Yeah, I saw that. +[1959.06 --> 1960.30] ...thousands and thousands +[1960.30 --> 1961.80] of bites of potato salad. +[1962.00 --> 1962.96] Like a lot of them. +[1963.90 --> 1965.50] He has to... +[1965.50 --> 1966.94] All the t-shirts, all the hats. +[1966.94 --> 1967.66] Make that video. +[1967.86 --> 1969.30] All the t-shirts, all the hats. +[1969.44 --> 1970.82] I think there might even be more stuff. +[1970.92 --> 1971.64] There's a lot of shipping +[1971.64 --> 1972.26] that's going to be in here. +[1972.54 --> 1973.60] He's shipping out thousands +[1973.60 --> 1974.54] and thousands of things +[1974.54 --> 1975.46] so he's probably not going to be able +[1975.46 --> 1976.22] to do it by himself. +[1976.70 --> 1977.54] He's probably going to have to get people +[1977.54 --> 1979.42] to help him like... +[1979.42 --> 1980.32] He's going to come out +[1980.32 --> 1981.14] with a ton of money. +[1981.74 --> 1982.92] Probably not even that much. +[1982.94 --> 1984.42] But it's not going to be $47,000. +[1985.04 --> 1986.40] I could easily see him +[1986.40 --> 1987.66] spending at least $20,000 +[1987.66 --> 1990.50] doing all this stuff. +[1990.90 --> 1991.30] I don't know. +[1991.36 --> 1992.90] I just don't see the appeal. +[1997.78 --> 1998.88] I think it's funny +[1998.88 --> 2000.84] but I don't think it's technically funny. +[2001.10 --> 2001.66] I don't know. +[2001.90 --> 2002.58] There's no such thing +[2002.58 --> 2003.52] as technically funny. +[2003.68 --> 2004.68] Humor is not technical. +[2005.26 --> 2006.46] But you can have a terrible +[2006.46 --> 2007.50] sense of humor. +[2007.54 --> 2009.64] Okay. +[2009.78 --> 2011.62] So speaking of not a lot of money +[2011.62 --> 2013.16] Samsung's factory +[2013.16 --> 2014.68] was robbed at gunpoint. +[2014.68 --> 2014.86] Not a lot of money? +[2015.06 --> 2017.02] $36 million +[2017.02 --> 2018.40] in smartphones, +[2018.66 --> 2019.04] tablets, +[2019.24 --> 2020.92] and laptops stolen. +[2021.16 --> 2021.90] So it was a group +[2021.90 --> 2023.46] of about 20 armed men. +[2023.86 --> 2025.60] This happened earlier this week. +[2026.14 --> 2028.06] The speculation right now +[2028.06 --> 2029.54] is that there was probably +[2029.54 --> 2031.40] someone on the inside +[2031.40 --> 2033.32] involved in pulling off +[2033.32 --> 2034.00] this heist. +[2034.00 --> 2034.88] But basically +[2034.88 --> 2036.68] they had some of the employees +[2036.68 --> 2038.46] subdued at gunpoint. +[2038.56 --> 2039.16] They had others +[2039.16 --> 2040.22] just kind of going about +[2040.22 --> 2041.14] their days working +[2041.14 --> 2041.80] not even aware +[2041.80 --> 2042.46] of what was going on. +[2042.46 --> 2043.00] That's my favorite part. +[2043.08 --> 2043.72] While some employees +[2043.72 --> 2044.36] were held hostage +[2044.36 --> 2044.92] during the site, +[2045.00 --> 2045.62] the report claims +[2045.62 --> 2046.56] that the majority of others +[2046.56 --> 2048.18] just continued working. +[2048.18 --> 2050.86] It's just like, +[2050.86 --> 2051.68] what? +[2053.80 --> 2054.30] You're like, +[2054.34 --> 2055.18] I can't run away +[2055.18 --> 2056.38] because they'll shoot me. +[2057.00 --> 2058.40] And if I stop working, +[2059.24 --> 2060.28] who knows? +[2060.36 --> 2061.48] My job could be in jeopardy. +[2062.08 --> 2063.08] So I just might as well +[2063.08 --> 2063.80] keep on working. +[2064.80 --> 2065.20] So, +[2065.34 --> 2066.74] yeah, +[2066.84 --> 2067.10] I mean, +[2067.18 --> 2067.50] I would, +[2067.72 --> 2068.62] you know, +[2068.80 --> 2069.10] the funny, +[2069.24 --> 2069.40] like, +[2069.48 --> 2070.68] I don't mean for this +[2070.68 --> 2071.88] to come across the wrong way, +[2072.02 --> 2073.96] but I just don't get it. +[2074.16 --> 2075.16] What would you even do +[2075.16 --> 2076.46] with that many smartphones? +[2076.64 --> 2077.76] How would you even unload +[2077.76 --> 2078.58] that many smartphones +[2078.58 --> 2079.92] without getting caught? +[2079.98 --> 2081.02] If you know people +[2081.02 --> 2082.22] that own stores +[2082.22 --> 2082.78] or whatever. +[2083.58 --> 2083.96] Right. +[2084.12 --> 2084.34] But, +[2084.44 --> 2084.76] I mean, +[2084.76 --> 2085.96] we're talking smartphones. +[2086.10 --> 2086.82] We're talking things +[2086.82 --> 2089.08] with digital serial numbers +[2089.08 --> 2090.62] that are going to be reported +[2090.62 --> 2092.22] to a carrier +[2092.22 --> 2092.94] at some point. +[2092.94 --> 2093.14] Like, +[2093.20 --> 2093.68] these are things +[2093.68 --> 2094.82] that are pretty difficult +[2094.82 --> 2096.60] to cover up. +[2096.72 --> 2097.66] They're very trackable. +[2097.80 --> 2097.94] I mean, +[2098.38 --> 2099.46] it's one of those things +[2099.46 --> 2099.62] where, +[2099.68 --> 2099.94] I don't know, +[2099.98 --> 2101.12] you guys ever watch numbers? +[2102.32 --> 2102.52] You know, +[2102.60 --> 2103.96] you go on a map, +[2104.18 --> 2104.78] you kind of go, +[2104.90 --> 2105.22] okay, +[2105.48 --> 2105.68] well, +[2105.74 --> 2106.26] here's where they're +[2106.26 --> 2107.00] being activated. +[2108.30 --> 2109.30] They're probably coming +[2109.30 --> 2110.08] from somewhere in here. +[2110.16 --> 2110.26] Like, +[2110.30 --> 2111.72] this is legitimately +[2111.72 --> 2112.64] a way that you could +[2112.64 --> 2113.56] track something like this. +[2113.86 --> 2114.14] So, +[2114.24 --> 2115.14] unless they have +[2115.14 --> 2116.92] an extremely diverse +[2116.92 --> 2118.04] distribution network +[2118.04 --> 2119.02] all full of people +[2119.02 --> 2119.56] who aren't going to +[2119.56 --> 2120.22] breathe a word, +[2121.04 --> 2122.26] how do you not get caught +[2122.26 --> 2122.84] doing something +[2122.84 --> 2123.44] like this? +[2123.78 --> 2124.12] Move, +[2124.46 --> 2125.06] I guess. +[2126.56 --> 2126.96] Like, +[2126.98 --> 2127.40] you might be able +[2127.40 --> 2128.24] to find the store, +[2128.86 --> 2129.36] but then maybe +[2129.36 --> 2130.38] the store doesn't know. +[2131.48 --> 2132.04] Maybe you go +[2132.04 --> 2132.62] to a distributor. +[2132.80 --> 2133.42] But the issue +[2133.42 --> 2135.02] is that someone knows. +[2135.10 --> 2135.60] Someone knows. +[2135.70 --> 2136.06] And, +[2136.28 --> 2136.84] I don't know +[2136.84 --> 2137.32] what the laws +[2137.32 --> 2138.00] are like in Brazil, +[2138.16 --> 2138.76] but here, +[2139.28 --> 2140.60] selling stolen goods, +[2140.72 --> 2141.12] even if, +[2141.20 --> 2141.36] oh, +[2141.44 --> 2142.14] I didn't know, +[2142.24 --> 2143.04] is still illegal. +[2143.28 --> 2144.02] It's still a big deal. +[2144.18 --> 2144.32] Yeah. +[2144.32 --> 2144.82] So, +[2144.82 --> 2146.46] I don't know. +[2146.98 --> 2147.70] I have no idea +[2147.70 --> 2148.14] what the laws +[2148.14 --> 2148.74] are like in Brazil, +[2148.74 --> 2149.98] but I can't imagine +[2149.98 --> 2150.40] this would be +[2150.40 --> 2151.00] the hardest thing +[2151.00 --> 2151.48] to track. +[2151.96 --> 2152.68] Especially if they +[2152.68 --> 2153.62] sold that much money +[2153.62 --> 2154.12] worth of stuff. +[2154.38 --> 2154.96] They must have been +[2154.96 --> 2156.08] in there for so long. +[2156.34 --> 2156.54] Oh yeah, +[2156.58 --> 2157.02] they were loading +[2157.02 --> 2157.66] trucks and trucks +[2157.66 --> 2158.02] and trucks. +[2158.02 --> 2158.04] Yeah, +[2158.10 --> 2158.22] yeah, +[2158.22 --> 2158.62] exactly. +[2158.94 --> 2159.12] So, +[2159.18 --> 2159.90] the amount of chance +[2159.90 --> 2160.42] that you left +[2160.42 --> 2161.40] some type of +[2161.40 --> 2162.86] DNA evidence behind, +[2163.54 --> 2164.16] the amount of chance +[2164.16 --> 2165.12] that some camera +[2165.12 --> 2166.20] got you at some point +[2166.20 --> 2166.64] in time. +[2166.88 --> 2167.06] Well, +[2167.12 --> 2167.72] the good news is +[2167.72 --> 2168.38] they didn't kill +[2168.38 --> 2169.10] or hurt anyone. +[2169.44 --> 2170.48] Because if they had, +[2170.72 --> 2171.48] then it becomes, +[2172.02 --> 2172.30] I mean, +[2172.38 --> 2173.26] it's still, +[2173.44 --> 2174.34] whatever is bigger +[2174.34 --> 2175.26] than grand theft, +[2175.40 --> 2176.20] but all of a sudden +[2176.20 --> 2177.60] it becomes murder. +[2177.86 --> 2178.04] Yeah. +[2179.42 --> 2179.82] Yeah, +[2179.98 --> 2180.38] geez, +[2180.44 --> 2180.74] I don't know. +[2180.74 --> 2181.44] People are saying +[2181.44 --> 2182.18] there's a lot of gold +[2182.18 --> 2182.80] in smartphones. +[2183.04 --> 2184.12] I really think +[2184.12 --> 2184.70] that there are +[2184.70 --> 2186.08] better ways +[2186.08 --> 2187.70] to get that much gold +[2187.70 --> 2189.26] with 20 armed people +[2189.26 --> 2190.42] than breaking +[2190.42 --> 2192.44] into a smartphone factory +[2192.44 --> 2194.42] and taking them apart. +[2194.68 --> 2194.74] That is probably +[2194.74 --> 2196.44] not what they're going for. +[2196.82 --> 2197.02] I mean, +[2197.50 --> 2198.68] I gave, +[2198.68 --> 2199.88] I give you guys props. +[2200.00 --> 2200.24] Like, +[2200.36 --> 2201.42] thank you for the good idea, +[2201.52 --> 2202.62] but I really don't think +[2202.62 --> 2203.12] that's it. +[2203.30 --> 2203.70] Like, +[2203.76 --> 2204.46] if I was going to +[2204.46 --> 2206.44] coordinate a heist like this +[2206.44 --> 2208.24] and I wanted gold, +[2208.62 --> 2210.60] I would probably rob +[2210.60 --> 2212.60] a jewelry distribution hub, +[2212.80 --> 2214.06] not an electronics one. +[2214.12 --> 2214.90] And those exist. +[2215.08 --> 2216.30] Just throwing that out there. +[2217.96 --> 2218.86] Probably hard to find. +[2218.92 --> 2219.74] Probably harder to find +[2219.74 --> 2220.30] than, like, +[2220.84 --> 2222.38] Samsung's distribution hub. +[2222.38 --> 2223.10] But if you are +[2223.10 --> 2224.10] bringing along +[2224.10 --> 2224.92] 20 people +[2224.92 --> 2226.56] armed with truck drivers +[2226.56 --> 2227.04] and everything, +[2227.04 --> 2228.80] I don't know. +[2228.98 --> 2230.10] You could probably find it. +[2230.10 --> 2230.56] You could probably +[2230.56 --> 2231.22] figure it out. +[2231.30 --> 2231.48] Yeah. +[2232.12 --> 2232.54] All right, +[2232.60 --> 2233.68] so speaking of smartphones, +[2234.02 --> 2234.82] the original poster +[2234.82 --> 2235.88] for this on the forum +[2235.88 --> 2238.40] was Adam Isaac Lang. +[2238.74 --> 2239.62] And the original article +[2239.62 --> 2240.94] is from VentureBeat +[2240.94 --> 2242.28] and it's all about +[2242.28 --> 2243.20] Avast, +[2243.58 --> 2244.76] recovering data +[2244.76 --> 2246.16] off of cell phones +[2246.16 --> 2246.84] that they bought +[2246.84 --> 2247.58] on eBay. +[2247.94 --> 2248.84] This is something +[2248.84 --> 2250.12] that I guess +[2250.12 --> 2251.62] we should have seen coming. +[2251.62 --> 2256.18] But I had expected +[2256.18 --> 2257.22] to be a little bit +[2257.22 --> 2257.96] more difficult +[2257.96 --> 2258.86] and a little bit +[2258.86 --> 2259.84] less effective +[2259.84 --> 2261.08] than it turns out +[2261.08 --> 2261.60] that it was. +[2261.68 --> 2262.18] Because the thing +[2262.18 --> 2263.70] about flash-based storage +[2263.70 --> 2265.26] is that unlike +[2265.26 --> 2266.88] magnetic-based storage, +[2267.08 --> 2267.74] it's actually +[2267.74 --> 2268.88] reshuffling itself +[2268.88 --> 2269.60] in the background +[2269.60 --> 2270.70] quite a bit. +[2270.96 --> 2272.08] So magnetic-based storage, +[2272.18 --> 2273.14] the way that file recovery +[2273.14 --> 2273.56] works, +[2273.88 --> 2275.10] is when you delete something, +[2275.24 --> 2276.18] it only deletes +[2276.18 --> 2276.84] the references +[2276.84 --> 2278.36] to where the files are. +[2278.44 --> 2278.90] It doesn't actually +[2278.90 --> 2279.88] delete the entire file +[2279.88 --> 2280.44] because that's very +[2280.44 --> 2281.12] time-consuming +[2281.12 --> 2281.92] and magnetic storage +[2281.92 --> 2282.50] is slow. +[2282.88 --> 2283.80] With an SSD, +[2284.18 --> 2286.30] particularly a trim-enabled one, +[2286.62 --> 2287.72] it actually does +[2287.72 --> 2288.44] a bit more +[2288.44 --> 2289.36] of a thorough job. +[2289.48 --> 2289.84] It does, +[2289.98 --> 2290.70] it's going to have +[2290.70 --> 2291.84] to delete the references, +[2292.04 --> 2292.48] the pointers, +[2292.82 --> 2294.02] to where the files are. +[2294.32 --> 2295.12] But then, +[2295.46 --> 2296.84] between sort of +[2296.84 --> 2297.94] cleaning up the drive +[2297.94 --> 2298.76] in order to optimize +[2298.76 --> 2299.82] it for better performance +[2299.82 --> 2302.44] and both in terms of trim +[2302.44 --> 2303.48] and in terms of +[2303.48 --> 2304.74] idle garbage collection, +[2305.38 --> 2306.96] a lot of data +[2306.96 --> 2307.78] should in theory +[2307.78 --> 2308.64] be lost +[2308.64 --> 2309.82] and scrambled around. +[2309.88 --> 2311.14] Because unlike a hard drive +[2311.14 --> 2312.28] where you're going to write +[2312.28 --> 2313.52] a file as continuously +[2313.52 --> 2314.36] as possible, +[2314.72 --> 2315.60] with an SSD, +[2316.24 --> 2317.12] things get scattered +[2317.12 --> 2318.12] around all over the place. +[2318.20 --> 2318.98] So even though +[2318.98 --> 2321.18] you might only actually delete, +[2321.52 --> 2322.06] let's say, +[2322.16 --> 2323.86] 5% of a file +[2323.86 --> 2325.22] as you are reshuffling +[2325.22 --> 2325.92] things around, +[2326.40 --> 2327.50] there's still a good chance +[2327.50 --> 2328.54] that you would corrupt, +[2328.62 --> 2330.00] especially certain file types +[2330.00 --> 2331.36] that aren't as resilient +[2331.36 --> 2334.28] to partial losses +[2334.28 --> 2334.94] of their data. +[2335.36 --> 2336.86] So I didn't expect this +[2336.86 --> 2338.42] to work as well as it did, +[2338.42 --> 2340.24] but according to the report +[2340.24 --> 2341.36] from Avast, +[2342.06 --> 2343.26] they were able to get +[2343.26 --> 2344.34] 40,000 photos, +[2344.50 --> 2345.46] 750 emails, +[2345.64 --> 2347.16] 250 names and addresses, +[2347.74 --> 2349.80] and one loan application. +[2350.80 --> 2351.70] Why do you have your loan +[2351.70 --> 2352.74] application on your phone? +[2353.86 --> 2354.90] Don't do that. +[2354.90 --> 2357.18] But in general, +[2357.38 --> 2357.62] I mean, +[2357.72 --> 2359.20] part of the whole thing there +[2359.20 --> 2359.80] is they're like, +[2359.88 --> 2360.36] okay, look, +[2360.42 --> 2361.26] you should probably use +[2361.26 --> 2361.78] our software +[2361.78 --> 2363.16] and do a proper secure wipe +[2363.16 --> 2363.88] where you're actually +[2363.88 --> 2365.16] overwriting things. +[2365.16 --> 2367.04] So it's a bit of a publicity stunt +[2367.04 --> 2368.18] more than anything else. +[2368.84 --> 2370.16] But the fact that... +[2370.16 --> 2372.22] What was it? +[2372.30 --> 2374.04] I forget what the numbers were. +[2374.14 --> 2375.08] It's not in our notes, +[2375.22 --> 2377.88] but only a very small fraction +[2377.88 --> 2378.52] of the phones +[2378.52 --> 2380.00] had any security software +[2380.00 --> 2382.00] previously installed on them +[2382.00 --> 2382.70] whatsoever. +[2383.14 --> 2384.20] So Avast's point, +[2384.42 --> 2385.56] and their app is free, +[2385.70 --> 2386.26] so it's not like +[2386.26 --> 2387.08] they're actually trying +[2387.08 --> 2387.80] to sell you something +[2387.80 --> 2388.82] for five bucks or whatever. +[2388.98 --> 2390.04] Avast's point is, +[2390.42 --> 2391.16] yo, guys, +[2391.86 --> 2393.14] please be aware of this. +[2393.48 --> 2394.46] Your phone is like +[2394.46 --> 2396.52] the least secure thing ever. +[2397.30 --> 2397.96] Oh, apparently it was +[2397.96 --> 2398.60] to boost sales +[2398.60 --> 2399.54] of its secure wipe +[2399.54 --> 2400.58] antivirus program +[2400.58 --> 2402.28] for $30 a year. +[2403.14 --> 2403.58] Okay. +[2403.80 --> 2404.42] When I was reading +[2404.42 --> 2405.32] the article earlier, +[2405.64 --> 2406.70] I think they have +[2406.70 --> 2408.18] one security app +[2408.18 --> 2408.96] that is free. +[2409.16 --> 2409.30] Okay. +[2409.52 --> 2409.82] So there you go. +[2409.88 --> 2410.12] Anyway, +[2410.42 --> 2411.46] there are free apps, +[2411.56 --> 2411.68] though, +[2411.76 --> 2413.10] that can do a proper +[2413.10 --> 2414.60] secure erase of your phone, +[2414.74 --> 2415.78] so just something +[2415.78 --> 2416.46] to be aware of, +[2416.46 --> 2417.18] even if you don't want +[2417.18 --> 2417.92] to give Avast +[2417.92 --> 2419.56] your money for it. +[2420.10 --> 2420.54] Okay. +[2421.10 --> 2422.72] A little bit confused there. +[2422.78 --> 2423.20] My bad. +[2423.38 --> 2424.36] The security prices +[2424.36 --> 2425.56] packages range +[2425.56 --> 2426.50] with the most costing +[2426.50 --> 2426.96] about $30 +[2426.96 --> 2428.80] while Avast is free. +[2428.92 --> 2429.32] Thank you. +[2429.52 --> 2430.18] Avast is free. +[2430.24 --> 2430.66] I knew it. +[2432.12 --> 2432.68] All right. +[2433.26 --> 2435.12] So here was kind of +[2435.12 --> 2436.14] a scandal this week. +[2436.20 --> 2436.84] This was interesting. +[2437.48 --> 2439.22] So the FTC is +[2439.22 --> 2441.20] suing T-Mobile +[2441.20 --> 2442.40] or fining them +[2442.40 --> 2442.96] or whatever it is +[2442.96 --> 2443.62] they're doing to them. +[2443.68 --> 2443.98] Basically, +[2443.98 --> 2444.92] they want money from them +[2444.92 --> 2447.18] for knowingly adding +[2447.18 --> 2448.68] bogus charges +[2448.68 --> 2449.54] to the bills +[2449.54 --> 2450.86] of their customers. +[2451.56 --> 2452.30] This was originally +[2452.30 --> 2453.18] posted on the forum +[2453.18 --> 2454.70] by Ryu-kun +[2454.70 --> 2456.18] and there have actually +[2456.18 --> 2458.14] been quite a few +[2458.14 --> 2459.24] updates to this. +[2459.24 --> 2460.28] His post was really good +[2460.28 --> 2460.66] by the way. +[2460.70 --> 2461.50] As it's gone +[2461.50 --> 2463.04] along here. +[2463.36 --> 2464.80] So pretty much +[2464.80 --> 2466.42] T-Mobile fired back +[2466.42 --> 2467.78] almost immediately +[2467.78 --> 2468.46] saying, +[2468.92 --> 2469.20] you know, +[2469.34 --> 2469.58] hey, +[2469.86 --> 2470.20] well, +[2470.40 --> 2470.66] look, +[2470.80 --> 2472.56] we don't engage +[2472.56 --> 2473.08] in this. +[2473.18 --> 2474.14] It was an industry +[2474.14 --> 2474.70] problem. +[2475.64 --> 2476.92] We don't understand +[2476.92 --> 2478.04] why we're being +[2478.04 --> 2478.68] gone after +[2478.68 --> 2479.64] because we're +[2479.64 --> 2480.42] about the most +[2480.42 --> 2481.56] consumer-friendly +[2481.56 --> 2482.98] mobile carrier +[2482.98 --> 2483.92] ever. +[2485.40 --> 2486.16] Their CEO +[2486.16 --> 2487.06] called the claims +[2487.06 --> 2487.94] unfounded +[2487.94 --> 2488.98] and without +[2488.98 --> 2489.68] merit +[2489.68 --> 2491.02] and we believe +[2491.02 --> 2491.52] that customers +[2491.52 --> 2492.30] should pay only +[2492.30 --> 2493.14] for what they want +[2493.14 --> 2494.14] and what they sign up +[2494.14 --> 2494.48] for. +[2495.44 --> 2495.60] And, +[2495.68 --> 2496.76] yeah, +[2497.24 --> 2498.84] so the FTC +[2498.84 --> 2500.02] says that the services +[2500.02 --> 2500.46] that they were +[2500.46 --> 2501.40] charging for in question +[2501.40 --> 2502.44] had refund request +[2502.44 --> 2503.10] rates of up to +[2503.10 --> 2504.82] 40% in a single +[2504.82 --> 2505.24] month +[2505.24 --> 2506.64] and T-Mobile +[2506.64 --> 2507.28] is allegedly +[2507.28 --> 2508.00] collecting as much +[2508.00 --> 2508.80] as 40% of the +[2508.80 --> 2509.54] revenue generated +[2509.54 --> 2510.82] from these services. +[2510.82 --> 2510.96] services. +[2511.54 --> 2511.82] So, +[2512.32 --> 2512.82] I'll be interested +[2512.82 --> 2513.36] to see how this +[2513.36 --> 2514.18] plays out. +[2514.42 --> 2514.94] Services being +[2514.94 --> 2516.52] like blurting tips +[2516.52 --> 2517.34] and horoscope +[2517.34 --> 2518.72] and celebrity +[2518.72 --> 2520.06] crap and stupid +[2520.06 --> 2520.78] things like that +[2520.78 --> 2521.38] which no one +[2521.38 --> 2522.08] should ever do. +[2522.08 --> 2522.28] Yeah, +[2522.40 --> 2523.30] so basically +[2523.30 --> 2524.54] these are premium +[2524.54 --> 2525.84] SMS services +[2525.84 --> 2527.04] that they are +[2527.04 --> 2528.14] commonly charging for. +[2528.44 --> 2529.06] I didn't even know +[2529.06 --> 2529.74] those still existed. +[2530.42 --> 2531.12] I didn't know +[2531.12 --> 2531.50] that either. +[2531.80 --> 2532.34] In fact, +[2532.52 --> 2533.52] I don't even know +[2533.52 --> 2534.44] why I still get +[2534.44 --> 2535.16] SMS messages +[2535.16 --> 2535.94] from my carrier +[2535.94 --> 2536.60] with the new +[2536.60 --> 2537.64] legislation in Canada +[2537.64 --> 2539.80] that forbids spam. +[2540.70 --> 2541.80] Even mailing lists +[2541.80 --> 2542.94] that I'm signed up +[2542.94 --> 2543.98] for have told me +[2543.98 --> 2544.78] they can't continue +[2544.78 --> 2546.00] to email me +[2546.00 --> 2547.62] unless I specifically +[2547.62 --> 2548.30] authorize them +[2548.30 --> 2548.78] to do it. +[2549.36 --> 2550.80] Is SMS not covered +[2550.80 --> 2551.22] by this? +[2551.30 --> 2552.00] I actually haven't +[2552.00 --> 2552.62] looked into it +[2552.62 --> 2552.88] that deeply. +[2552.88 --> 2553.10] It should be. +[2553.10 --> 2553.78] That's more annoying +[2553.78 --> 2554.26] than email. +[2554.44 --> 2556.08] Because I got an +[2556.08 --> 2556.82] upgrade to the +[2556.82 --> 2557.94] Galaxy S4 Mini +[2557.94 --> 2559.04] for only this much +[2559.04 --> 2560.02] text the other day +[2560.02 --> 2560.64] and it carries +[2560.64 --> 2561.02] something like +[2561.02 --> 2561.64] a $10 million +[2561.64 --> 2562.96] fine or $1 million +[2562.96 --> 2563.76] or $10 million +[2563.76 --> 2564.14] or something. +[2564.24 --> 2564.56] I constantly get stupid +[2564.56 --> 2565.44] annoying tell us +[2565.44 --> 2566.10] text messages. +[2566.10 --> 2567.54] Yeah, well the issue +[2567.54 --> 2568.36] is that I'm close +[2568.36 --> 2568.70] to the end +[2568.70 --> 2569.34] of my contract. +[2570.10 --> 2571.64] My contract is ended +[2571.64 --> 2572.36] so they just +[2572.36 --> 2573.76] spam me constantly. +[2573.84 --> 2574.38] It's like, wow, +[2574.62 --> 2575.52] I'm at a time +[2575.52 --> 2578.02] in my cycle here +[2578.02 --> 2579.12] when I can leave you +[2579.12 --> 2579.76] at any time. +[2580.20 --> 2581.02] Seems like a good +[2581.02 --> 2582.10] opportunity to piss +[2582.10 --> 2583.08] me off, doesn't it? +[2583.16 --> 2583.36] Yeah. +[2583.64 --> 2584.80] What goes through +[2584.80 --> 2585.54] carriers' heads? +[2585.62 --> 2585.96] But you know +[2585.96 --> 2586.92] what the scary thing is? +[2587.20 --> 2588.08] If it didn't work +[2588.08 --> 2588.72] they wouldn't do it. +[2588.84 --> 2589.04] Yep. +[2589.42 --> 2590.40] I'm sure it works. +[2591.08 --> 2592.34] Because you're not even +[2592.34 --> 2593.30] I know a lot of people +[2593.30 --> 2594.14] that don't even realize +[2594.14 --> 2595.38] their contract actually ends. +[2595.38 --> 2596.22] they're like, +[2596.26 --> 2596.88] oh, I can get this phone +[2596.88 --> 2597.30] for this much? +[2597.36 --> 2597.52] Sure. +[2597.60 --> 2598.46] They go in and get that phone +[2598.46 --> 2599.48] and they're contracted again. +[2601.86 --> 2602.70] Well, there you go. +[2602.80 --> 2603.48] If you don't even really +[2603.48 --> 2604.70] think about when your period ends +[2604.70 --> 2605.28] if you don't really think +[2605.28 --> 2606.18] about all those other things. +[2606.64 --> 2608.98] That did not come out right. +[2610.26 --> 2612.22] I meant your contract period. +[2613.40 --> 2614.44] Oh, no. +[2615.02 --> 2615.38] Okay. +[2615.96 --> 2616.32] Anyways. +[2616.32 --> 2619.56] I guess that's a thing. +[2619.64 --> 2620.10] I still haven't picked +[2620.10 --> 2620.74] what I'm going to go with +[2620.74 --> 2623.54] in terms of carriers. +[2625.54 --> 2626.68] Can we move on now? +[2629.08 --> 2629.52] Nanopixels. +[2629.78 --> 2630.88] So this was originally +[2630.88 --> 2631.98] posted on the forum +[2631.98 --> 2634.38] by DLF +[2634.38 --> 2635.16] and the original article +[2635.16 --> 2636.36] is on Extreme Tech. +[2636.36 --> 2637.36] So we're talking +[2637.36 --> 2638.10] resolutions +[2638.10 --> 2642.50] 150 times higher. +[2644.16 --> 2644.72] Nanopixels. +[2645.20 --> 2646.48] So blah, blah, blah, +[2646.60 --> 2647.16] et cetera, et cetera. +[2647.24 --> 2648.16] Researchers have created +[2648.16 --> 2648.98] nanopixels that measure +[2648.98 --> 2651.80] just 300 by 300 nanometers. +[2652.02 --> 2652.68] So comparing this +[2652.68 --> 2653.64] to a modern smartphone +[2653.64 --> 2656.56] with a 400 pixel per inch display, +[2656.96 --> 2658.04] we're talking, yes, +[2658.38 --> 2660.12] 150 times more. +[2660.12 --> 2662.18] Now, obviously, +[2662.62 --> 2663.84] we could create +[2663.84 --> 2665.98] extremely high resolution displays +[2665.98 --> 2667.46] with this technology, +[2667.46 --> 2669.54] but there are +[2669.54 --> 2670.94] some other complications. +[2671.18 --> 2671.78] So for example, +[2672.20 --> 2673.38] we'd have to figure out +[2673.38 --> 2675.88] what kind of a display interface +[2675.88 --> 2677.12] is going to be able +[2677.12 --> 2677.84] to handle +[2677.84 --> 2686.54] 198,000 by 120,000 pixels. +[2686.54 --> 2687.54] Is that the resolution +[2687.54 --> 2688.18] that it does +[2688.18 --> 2689.72] or can you do much lower? +[2690.12 --> 2691.32] It can just do up to that +[2691.32 --> 2692.00] because I'm pretty sure +[2692.00 --> 2693.10] it can just do up to that. +[2693.44 --> 2693.92] Yeah, no, +[2694.00 --> 2695.42] it would be up to that +[2695.42 --> 2696.10] depending on... +[2696.10 --> 2696.38] So you don't have +[2696.38 --> 2697.40] to push it that hard. +[2697.52 --> 2698.44] No, I think they're just, +[2698.54 --> 2699.18] they're taking like +[2699.18 --> 2700.24] probably a 5-inch +[2700.24 --> 2701.64] phone screen size +[2701.64 --> 2702.12] and going, +[2702.28 --> 2703.76] well, if we can do 1920 by 1200, +[2704.28 --> 2705.46] then we could do this. +[2705.48 --> 2706.66] With this potential density, +[2706.80 --> 2707.26] we can do this. +[2707.32 --> 2708.02] Yeah, because I don't, +[2708.20 --> 2709.28] I don't actually see anyone +[2709.28 --> 2710.40] really actually pushing +[2710.40 --> 2711.04] that resolution +[2711.04 --> 2712.24] because it's ridiculous. +[2712.86 --> 2714.18] So, so we'd have to figure out +[2714.18 --> 2715.66] how to even drive +[2715.66 --> 2717.00] resolutions like that +[2717.00 --> 2717.38] with the, +[2717.48 --> 2718.30] we'd have to catch up +[2718.30 --> 2719.44] in terms of processing power, +[2719.52 --> 2720.10] we'd have to catch up +[2720.10 --> 2721.26] in terms of display interfaces. +[2721.38 --> 2722.78] I mean, maybe light-based interfaces +[2722.78 --> 2724.06] could take us, +[2724.16 --> 2724.36] you know, +[2724.40 --> 2725.66] the next step forward. +[2726.06 --> 2728.90] But I guess my whole thing here +[2728.90 --> 2731.74] is for most stuff, +[2732.14 --> 2733.92] it's probably a moot point. +[2734.14 --> 2734.30] Yep. +[2734.36 --> 2735.90] For TVs, irrelevant. +[2736.60 --> 2739.50] For computers, irrelevant. +[2739.94 --> 2741.10] And even for smartphones, +[2741.54 --> 2742.54] I would say irrelevant. +[2742.54 --> 2744.88] I have a really hard time +[2744.88 --> 2745.92] telling the difference +[2745.92 --> 2748.50] between the 2560 by 1440 display +[2748.50 --> 2749.34] on the G3 +[2749.34 --> 2751.14] versus the 1080p display +[2751.14 --> 2751.98] on the 1M8. +[2752.10 --> 2753.50] It's just not that different. +[2753.70 --> 2754.36] One thing I was thinking about +[2754.36 --> 2755.48] is sometimes it becomes +[2755.48 --> 2756.50] actually more expensive +[2756.50 --> 2757.98] to manufacture older technology. +[2758.50 --> 2759.16] So if just everything +[2759.16 --> 2760.16] starts moving towards this, +[2760.24 --> 2761.28] maybe it becomes cheaper +[2761.28 --> 2762.58] and they're not even aiming +[2762.58 --> 2763.36] for that resolution. +[2763.56 --> 2764.94] They just aim for a way lower resolution, +[2765.06 --> 2766.08] but just use this technology. +[2766.46 --> 2766.50] And... +[2766.50 --> 2767.56] Maybe it comes to TVs, +[2767.68 --> 2768.36] they don't need it, +[2768.42 --> 2769.26] but maybe it just... +[2769.26 --> 2770.82] I mean, if the tech gets used +[2770.82 --> 2771.60] for other things, +[2771.68 --> 2772.68] like if it gets used +[2772.68 --> 2774.68] for better passive 3D, +[2775.08 --> 2776.34] if it gets used for things +[2776.34 --> 2777.62] like adding pixels +[2777.62 --> 2779.12] with more colors, +[2779.38 --> 2780.26] so that we can... +[2780.26 --> 2781.78] Like you look at... +[2781.78 --> 2783.06] Ah, shoot. +[2783.12 --> 2783.76] Who is it who does +[2783.76 --> 2785.34] the fourth yellow pixel +[2785.34 --> 2786.00] in their TVs? +[2786.16 --> 2786.64] Is it Sharp? +[2787.02 --> 2787.44] I think so. +[2787.50 --> 2788.16] I think it's Sharp. +[2788.24 --> 2791.04] Anyway, you look at stuff like that +[2791.04 --> 2792.40] and what that kind of tech +[2792.40 --> 2793.54] can do to push things forward. +[2793.84 --> 2795.14] I can see it being used there, +[2795.28 --> 2798.50] but in larger form factor devices, +[2798.50 --> 2799.76] I don't think it's that relevant. +[2799.90 --> 2800.98] The place that I really see +[2800.98 --> 2801.96] this being used, though, +[2802.34 --> 2804.72] is head-mounted displays, +[2805.00 --> 2805.46] wearables, +[2805.74 --> 2806.72] and then things like +[2806.72 --> 2807.64] micro-projectors. +[2808.02 --> 2809.66] So we've seen some interesting stuff +[2809.66 --> 2810.84] done with holograms. +[2811.08 --> 2811.66] So what's that... +[2811.66 --> 2812.00] What is it? +[2812.04 --> 2812.70] Like Miku? +[2813.06 --> 2815.38] Or what's that Japanese pop star character +[2815.38 --> 2816.20] with the green hair? +[2816.20 --> 2816.60] Yeah, yeah. +[2816.66 --> 2817.74] I don't know the name, +[2817.82 --> 2818.48] but I know what you're talking about. +[2818.50 --> 2818.90] Yeah, yeah. +[2819.30 --> 2821.10] I feel like we should probably... +[2821.10 --> 2821.98] They've also done hologram +[2821.98 --> 2822.76] for Tupac, though. +[2823.20 --> 2824.00] Yeah, yeah, exactly. +[2824.48 --> 2826.56] So Miku Singer... +[2826.56 --> 2828.10] Miku Virtual Singer. +[2828.10 --> 2828.86] Here we go. +[2829.50 --> 2830.44] Hatsune Miku. +[2830.62 --> 2831.08] There we go. +[2831.44 --> 2832.90] The world's virtual diva. +[2832.98 --> 2834.18] Anyway, the point is +[2834.18 --> 2836.58] they've done concerts with her +[2836.58 --> 2838.28] as a hologram, +[2838.60 --> 2839.38] much like they did +[2839.38 --> 2840.48] that thing with Tupac, +[2840.60 --> 2842.52] and I would see +[2842.52 --> 2844.78] very, very tiny displays like this +[2844.78 --> 2846.76] as an interesting way +[2846.76 --> 2848.64] to push that technology forward. +[2848.78 --> 2849.86] So if you wanted something like +[2849.86 --> 2852.76] a wrist-mounted holographic projector thing, +[2852.84 --> 2855.10] we'd be talking extremely small... +[2855.10 --> 2856.80] we'd be talking extremely small optics, +[2856.94 --> 2857.78] and we'd be looking for ways +[2857.78 --> 2858.52] to miniaturize things +[2858.52 --> 2859.66] as much as we possibly could. +[2859.78 --> 2862.82] So that's where I'm really excited +[2862.82 --> 2863.96] to see this technology going. +[2864.06 --> 2865.08] But I see a lot of the comments +[2865.08 --> 2866.24] on this article that are like, +[2866.64 --> 2869.86] oh, we could have a 4K smartwatch. +[2869.92 --> 2870.56] I'm just like, yeah, +[2870.62 --> 2871.54] we don't need that. +[2871.60 --> 2872.60] Who gives a crap? +[2873.62 --> 2874.28] At all. +[2874.28 --> 2878.68] I mean, if they could, +[2878.74 --> 2880.10] if they can make them transparent, +[2880.28 --> 2881.30] and we could have really neat +[2881.30 --> 2882.32] stackable displays. +[2882.50 --> 2882.74] Yes. +[2882.86 --> 2883.88] So that we have, like, +[2883.88 --> 2885.04] a transparent watch +[2885.04 --> 2886.60] that had display elements +[2886.60 --> 2887.44] at every level, +[2887.60 --> 2889.60] and, like, I don't know. +[2889.76 --> 2890.56] Or have, like, +[2890.58 --> 2891.18] the thing I was talking about +[2891.18 --> 2892.02] with the real watch. +[2892.36 --> 2892.66] Yes. +[2892.74 --> 2895.00] With the digital watch screen on top, +[2895.06 --> 2895.94] which can fade +[2895.94 --> 2897.32] so you can see the real watch under it. +[2897.68 --> 2898.48] So I know a lot of people +[2898.48 --> 2899.38] that are just like, +[2899.44 --> 2900.48] I want a mechanical watch +[2900.48 --> 2901.98] because I like mechanical watches. +[2902.54 --> 2903.62] I'm like, yeah, well, +[2903.70 --> 2904.20] there's other things +[2904.20 --> 2904.74] that could be helpful. +[2904.90 --> 2906.32] So maybe if the screen illuminates +[2906.32 --> 2907.96] when you get a notification, +[2908.30 --> 2909.38] and then when there's no notifications, +[2909.56 --> 2910.06] it fades away, +[2910.14 --> 2911.30] and you have your nice mechanical watch. +[2911.50 --> 2912.30] That could be pretty cool. +[2912.52 --> 2913.74] I got my wife going on the Pebble. +[2914.26 --> 2914.56] Did you? +[2914.74 --> 2915.00] Yeah. +[2915.12 --> 2915.70] How'd she like it? +[2915.96 --> 2917.22] She really likes it. +[2917.64 --> 2918.26] And she's, +[2918.58 --> 2919.84] so a couple things. +[2919.94 --> 2921.42] Number one is at her work, +[2921.50 --> 2922.66] they can't carry their phones with them. +[2923.86 --> 2924.74] She's in a pharmacy. +[2925.08 --> 2925.60] It's unprofessional. +[2926.34 --> 2927.46] So, what? +[2927.62 --> 2928.34] It's kind of cheating. +[2928.70 --> 2928.96] What? +[2929.20 --> 2930.62] Having your Pebble +[2930.62 --> 2931.86] if you can't carry your phone with you, +[2931.86 --> 2932.16] at work? +[2932.38 --> 2933.40] It's just a watch, man. +[2933.66 --> 2934.76] So the point is, +[2934.82 --> 2936.94] she can leave her phone in her bag, +[2937.38 --> 2938.72] and she's not breaking any rules. +[2938.90 --> 2940.74] But if something urgent comes through, +[2941.14 --> 2942.12] like, I'm like, +[2942.32 --> 2942.82] where's the, +[2942.90 --> 2943.86] where's the child? +[2944.02 --> 2945.38] I need to go retrieve him. +[2946.08 --> 2947.44] And I don't know where to go, +[2947.68 --> 2949.02] because these kinds of things happen. +[2949.24 --> 2950.18] I don't have to call, +[2950.32 --> 2951.18] I don't have to call +[2951.18 --> 2952.50] and interrupt the entire pharmacy. +[2953.20 --> 2954.76] I can just text, +[2955.10 --> 2958.14] and then she can go slip off +[2958.14 --> 2958.38] to screen. +[2958.38 --> 2960.10] And she has a moment or whatever. +[2960.46 --> 2961.30] And then the other time +[2961.30 --> 2962.18] it's going to be really useful +[2962.18 --> 2964.06] is she's going on maternity leave. +[2964.44 --> 2966.04] Actually, starting today, +[2966.14 --> 2967.68] she's on short-term disability +[2967.68 --> 2968.60] because of, +[2969.02 --> 2969.74] she's got, like, +[2969.92 --> 2971.34] these shooting pains +[2971.34 --> 2972.42] and she can't stand all day. +[2972.84 --> 2974.32] So she's on short-term disability +[2974.32 --> 2975.86] until her maternity leave starts. +[2976.24 --> 2977.12] And a lot of the time +[2977.12 --> 2978.38] when you're taking care of a baby, +[2978.48 --> 2979.56] so once she's on her mat leave, +[2979.56 --> 2982.54] you're just kind of +[2982.54 --> 2983.62] all over the place. +[2983.74 --> 2984.20] Dealing with the baby, +[2984.28 --> 2984.84] you're not necessarily +[2984.84 --> 2985.82] keeping track of your phone. +[2985.90 --> 2986.96] So she has a watch on her. +[2987.08 --> 2988.44] You strap something to yourself. +[2989.28 --> 2990.08] It's way too early. +[2990.26 --> 2991.36] Then it's easier for me +[2991.36 --> 2991.88] to get in touch with her +[2991.88 --> 2993.26] because I had a really hard time +[2993.26 --> 2993.96] getting in touch with her +[2993.96 --> 2995.34] last time she was on maternity leave. +[2995.60 --> 2996.84] For those of you who don't know, +[2997.04 --> 2998.26] my baby's due +[2998.26 --> 3000.04] in about three weeks. +[3000.28 --> 3002.28] So that's what's up +[3002.28 --> 3004.82] as far as all that is concerned. +[3005.52 --> 3006.10] Someone said, +[3006.18 --> 3007.06] I'm going to break this laptop. +[3007.22 --> 3007.66] I have no idea +[3007.66 --> 3008.36] what they're talking about. +[3008.36 --> 3009.40] And another person said +[3009.40 --> 3010.92] that once the 4K watch shows up, +[3010.96 --> 3011.82] you're going to be super excited. +[3011.98 --> 3012.72] And I think you're wrong. +[3013.04 --> 3014.14] You're totally wrong. +[3014.66 --> 3015.70] How many cares did I give +[3015.70 --> 3016.42] about the G3 +[3016.42 --> 3019.12] and its high resolution screen? +[3019.28 --> 3019.58] Go ahead. +[3019.66 --> 3020.24] Watch the review. +[3021.80 --> 3022.70] That's how many cares +[3022.70 --> 3024.16] I will give about the 4K watch. +[3024.28 --> 3025.26] I've had a few more people +[3025.26 --> 3027.30] watch my 792 thing. +[3027.68 --> 3027.98] Oh yeah? +[3028.28 --> 3029.52] Everyone likes it so far. +[3030.12 --> 3031.18] Speaking of which, +[3031.24 --> 3031.62] you know what? +[3031.70 --> 3033.84] Let's go hate on Microsoft +[3033.84 --> 3034.68] for a little bit here. +[3034.76 --> 3035.88] So let's start with Microsoft +[3035.88 --> 3037.28] pulling Windows 7 support +[3037.28 --> 3037.96] in six months. +[3037.96 --> 3039.44] This was originally posted +[3039.44 --> 3040.64] by Dietrich W. +[3040.84 --> 3041.42] on the forum +[3041.42 --> 3042.26] and the article here +[3042.26 --> 3043.40] is from Business Insider. +[3044.18 --> 3044.58] It's not, +[3044.70 --> 3044.94] it's, +[3045.02 --> 3045.68] uh... +[3045.68 --> 3046.12] Well, +[3046.72 --> 3047.12] okay. +[3047.38 --> 3049.10] It's not really pulling support. +[3049.28 --> 3050.04] I still call, +[3050.04 --> 3050.28] it's not fair. +[3050.32 --> 3051.60] I still call bullshit on this +[3051.60 --> 3052.40] because we're not going to get +[3052.40 --> 3053.14] DirectX 12. +[3053.42 --> 3053.66] No. +[3054.18 --> 3055.40] Which is bullshit. +[3055.66 --> 3055.92] Yes. +[3057.06 --> 3057.36] So... +[3057.36 --> 3057.96] I'm not disagreeing with you +[3057.96 --> 3058.56] on that point at all. +[3058.62 --> 3058.90] Okay. +[3058.98 --> 3059.66] It's just not... +[3059.66 --> 3060.52] So we're on the same page. +[3060.58 --> 3060.80] Yes. +[3060.90 --> 3061.14] You just, +[3061.22 --> 3062.42] you can't properly say +[3062.42 --> 3063.36] that they're pulling support +[3063.36 --> 3063.98] because they're not. +[3063.98 --> 3066.54] not supporting DirectX 12 +[3066.54 --> 3067.32] is bullshit. +[3067.80 --> 3069.02] Especially if they're out of +[3069.02 --> 3069.88] one side of their mouth +[3069.88 --> 3070.54] they're going to say, +[3070.72 --> 3070.84] yeah, +[3070.90 --> 3071.80] we care about the PC +[3071.80 --> 3072.82] as a gaming platform. +[3072.82 --> 3072.84] We care about PC gamers +[3072.84 --> 3073.52] and all that, yeah. +[3073.52 --> 3074.12] We do this, +[3074.26 --> 3075.54] except we're going to, +[3075.64 --> 3075.74] like, +[3075.84 --> 3076.46] okay. +[3078.66 --> 3079.74] It's been shown +[3079.74 --> 3080.72] time and time again, +[3080.86 --> 3082.36] the way to support gaming +[3082.36 --> 3083.72] is to have +[3083.72 --> 3085.44] a large platform +[3085.44 --> 3087.04] of installed users +[3087.04 --> 3088.32] for a game developer +[3088.32 --> 3089.16] to target. +[3089.16 --> 3091.94] That is how you support gaming. +[3092.26 --> 3093.46] You do not support gaming +[3093.46 --> 3094.80] by forcing people +[3094.80 --> 3095.98] to buy a new OS +[3095.98 --> 3097.12] on hardware +[3097.12 --> 3097.84] that would otherwise +[3097.84 --> 3099.14] be fully capable of it +[3099.14 --> 3100.62] in order to take advantage +[3100.62 --> 3101.66] of a new feature. +[3101.86 --> 3102.82] That is how you get +[3102.82 --> 3103.84] absolutely no one +[3103.84 --> 3104.74] to give a shit +[3104.74 --> 3105.72] about your new feature. +[3105.94 --> 3106.86] That's what you achieve +[3106.86 --> 3107.50] by doing that. +[3107.76 --> 3109.58] So that's why I'm mad about this +[3109.58 --> 3110.58] from a gaming perspective. +[3110.78 --> 3111.14] But anyway, +[3111.26 --> 3111.88] they are continuing +[3111.88 --> 3113.34] to provide security updates +[3113.34 --> 3114.20] until... +[3114.20 --> 3114.62] 2020. +[3114.82 --> 3116.12] January 14, 2020 +[3116.12 --> 3117.14] or something like that. +[3117.24 --> 3118.44] So yay for business. +[3118.44 --> 3118.96] Also, +[3119.40 --> 3120.10] business customers +[3120.10 --> 3122.02] who pay for extended support +[3122.02 --> 3123.54] can continue to get +[3123.54 --> 3124.76] general updates, +[3125.02 --> 3126.32] which to me is like, +[3126.58 --> 3127.24] I get it. +[3127.88 --> 3128.96] I understand why +[3128.96 --> 3129.68] the business model +[3129.68 --> 3130.40] works that way, +[3130.54 --> 3131.90] but I'm still upset +[3131.90 --> 3133.14] that you're developing +[3133.14 --> 3133.84] all this stuff +[3133.84 --> 3134.68] and then you're just... +[3134.68 --> 3135.36] Not giving it to us? +[3135.44 --> 3136.46] Not giving it to us. +[3136.46 --> 3137.10] I wouldn't be surprised +[3137.10 --> 3137.78] at all +[3137.78 --> 3139.18] if someone creates +[3139.18 --> 3140.02] some sort of module +[3140.02 --> 3140.56] where you can get +[3140.56 --> 3141.00] those updates. +[3142.84 --> 3143.62] I don't know. +[3143.80 --> 3144.28] Anyway... +[3144.28 --> 3145.26] Not that that would even be +[3145.26 --> 3146.16] legal or right +[3146.16 --> 3146.60] or anything. +[3146.60 --> 3147.16] I'm just saying +[3147.16 --> 3147.76] it might exist. +[3147.76 --> 3149.26] I think timing +[3149.26 --> 3149.90] for different things +[3149.90 --> 3150.56] is fairly interesting +[3150.56 --> 3151.62] because we just read +[3151.62 --> 3152.62] something about Windows 9 +[3152.62 --> 3153.52] which is where they said +[3153.52 --> 3155.00] first half of 2015. +[3155.32 --> 3156.38] Probably not as soon +[3156.38 --> 3157.58] as January 13th. +[3158.86 --> 3159.24] Yeah. +[3159.46 --> 3160.42] So they're going to drop +[3160.42 --> 3161.70] performance support for it +[3161.70 --> 3162.40] and let you squirm +[3162.40 --> 3163.10] for a little while +[3163.10 --> 3164.30] and then release Windows 9. +[3165.98 --> 3166.84] I bet you that's +[3166.84 --> 3167.46] what's going to happen +[3167.46 --> 3168.14] because they're trying +[3168.14 --> 3168.50] to be like, +[3168.56 --> 3168.92] yeah, we're trying +[3168.92 --> 3170.16] to capture Windows 7 users. +[3170.40 --> 3170.92] So they're trying +[3170.92 --> 3171.88] to chop you off +[3171.88 --> 3172.38] and then give you +[3172.38 --> 3173.02] an alternative +[3173.02 --> 3173.92] that you actually like +[3173.92 --> 3174.74] instead of Windows 8 +[3174.74 --> 3175.36] which is trash. +[3176.50 --> 3177.14] So there's that. +[3177.42 --> 3178.64] Well, let's be fair. +[3178.98 --> 3180.24] Let's not call it trash. +[3180.78 --> 3182.42] Let's call it... +[3182.42 --> 3183.34] Refined garbage? +[3183.52 --> 3183.98] Not... +[3183.98 --> 3184.54] Well, that's... +[3184.54 --> 3186.20] That's not better. +[3186.86 --> 3187.64] Compact waste? +[3187.98 --> 3188.98] It's not waste. +[3189.08 --> 3189.58] I mean, there are +[3189.58 --> 3190.46] good things about it. +[3190.64 --> 3191.32] You know there are +[3191.32 --> 3191.58] good things about it. +[3191.58 --> 3192.24] File transfer! +[3192.80 --> 3193.98] And the task manager... +[3193.98 --> 3194.28] Task manager! +[3194.40 --> 3195.16] The task manager +[3195.16 --> 3195.72] is much better. +[3195.72 --> 3196.60] Nothing else! +[3197.22 --> 3197.96] There must be +[3197.96 --> 3198.54] something else. +[3198.68 --> 3199.40] It's good at performing. +[3199.64 --> 3200.26] It performs well. +[3200.32 --> 3201.44] I hate that arrow's gone. +[3201.76 --> 3201.96] Yeah. +[3202.04 --> 3203.28] I hate that flat... +[3203.28 --> 3203.92] I think it's ugly. +[3204.20 --> 3205.28] I think it's really ugly. +[3205.28 --> 3206.00] Windows 7 is beautiful. +[3206.42 --> 3207.24] Yeah, it really is. +[3207.96 --> 3208.90] Even the start button +[3208.90 --> 3209.22] is like, +[3209.30 --> 3209.72] dude, why is the +[3209.72 --> 3210.16] whole thing white? +[3211.66 --> 3212.02] Yeah. +[3212.26 --> 3212.90] Because it's not +[3212.90 --> 3213.60] really a start button. +[3213.78 --> 3214.12] That's why the +[3214.12 --> 3214.58] whole thing's white. +[3215.18 --> 3215.54] Yeah. +[3215.78 --> 3216.02] Okay. +[3216.34 --> 3217.38] So let's... +[3217.38 --> 3217.78] Okay. +[3218.02 --> 3218.84] I'd like to say +[3218.84 --> 3219.24] that we're going to +[3219.24 --> 3220.00] go easy on Microsoft +[3220.00 --> 3220.94] for a little bit here. +[3221.18 --> 3221.58] It's funny. +[3221.66 --> 3222.22] I got called +[3222.22 --> 3223.28] the ultimate Microsoft +[3223.28 --> 3224.76] fanboy by someone +[3224.76 --> 3226.42] on my Surface 3 review. +[3226.92 --> 3227.48] And I was like, +[3227.60 --> 3227.96] really? +[3228.60 --> 3229.46] Your Surface 3 review? +[3229.48 --> 3230.18] Yeah, I know, right? +[3230.26 --> 3230.62] What? +[3231.12 --> 3231.50] It's like, +[3231.52 --> 3232.38] people can decide +[3232.38 --> 3233.30] that I've sold out +[3233.30 --> 3234.38] no matter what I say. +[3234.92 --> 3236.10] Didn't you rip it apart? +[3236.48 --> 3237.26] I can be like, +[3237.68 --> 3238.92] you know what's garbage? +[3239.10 --> 3239.50] Minecraft. +[3239.84 --> 3240.34] And people will be like, +[3240.36 --> 3241.40] yeah, Mojang's sold out. +[3241.64 --> 3242.20] Why do you like +[3242.20 --> 3243.12] Minecraft so much? +[3243.46 --> 3244.74] Yeah, I bet Notch +[3244.74 --> 3245.66] gave him $5,000 +[3245.66 --> 3246.44] to say that. +[3247.30 --> 3247.74] Anyway, +[3248.30 --> 3249.98] so this is a big problem. +[3250.22 --> 3251.02] This is just +[3251.02 --> 3251.76] unbelievable. +[3251.76 --> 3252.10] Oh, yeah. +[3252.48 --> 3253.36] Original article +[3253.36 --> 3254.46] here on Forbes. +[3254.60 --> 3255.40] We're getting more and more +[3255.40 --> 3256.22] of our gaming news +[3256.22 --> 3256.84] from Forbes. +[3257.24 --> 3257.92] We were even talking +[3257.92 --> 3258.92] about this a little while ago +[3258.92 --> 3259.50] where I was like, +[3259.50 --> 3260.48] what is Forbes doing +[3260.48 --> 3261.38] video card reviews? +[3261.54 --> 3261.80] I know. +[3261.88 --> 3262.58] And now it's like, +[3262.64 --> 3262.98] okay, +[3263.32 --> 3263.94] good article. +[3264.74 --> 3265.84] In this article, +[3266.34 --> 3267.50] he goes like, +[3267.70 --> 3267.90] yeah, +[3267.96 --> 3268.94] I think games are fine +[3268.94 --> 3269.56] at 30 FPS. +[3270.24 --> 3270.68] And I'm just like, +[3270.74 --> 3270.96] yeah, +[3271.10 --> 3272.24] why does Forbes +[3272.24 --> 3272.96] even have news? +[3274.30 --> 3274.66] Well, +[3274.70 --> 3275.42] I thought other than that +[3275.42 --> 3275.86] the article is good. +[3275.86 --> 3276.62] Right here. +[3276.62 --> 3277.44] Personally, +[3277.60 --> 3278.20] I can tell the difference +[3278.20 --> 3278.90] between 1080p +[3278.90 --> 3280.10] and 720p +[3280.10 --> 3281.06] as well as 30 FPS +[3281.06 --> 3281.80] and 60 FPS, +[3282.14 --> 3283.00] but I don't really care. +[3283.10 --> 3283.54] In the past, +[3283.58 --> 3284.40] I've raised the ire +[3284.40 --> 3285.20] of the internet +[3285.20 --> 3286.06] by suggesting +[3286.06 --> 3286.66] that 30 FPS +[3286.66 --> 3287.26] was better +[3287.26 --> 3288.04] for some games +[3288.04 --> 3288.66] and opinion +[3288.66 --> 3289.46] that I stand by. +[3289.78 --> 3290.16] Well, +[3290.26 --> 3291.44] I don't care about you. +[3291.48 --> 3291.64] Yeah, +[3291.72 --> 3292.10] so anyway, +[3292.22 --> 3293.26] the point is +[3293.26 --> 3294.44] blah, blah, blah, +[3294.60 --> 3295.54] resolution gate +[3295.54 --> 3296.00] or whatever. +[3296.12 --> 3296.54] Everyone wants +[3296.54 --> 3297.30] to call everything +[3297.30 --> 3298.14] something gate. +[3298.14 --> 3298.84] It's very goofy. +[3300.08 --> 3300.36] Merc. +[3300.36 --> 3302.20] So anyway, +[3302.36 --> 3303.66] Xbox Marketing Chief +[3303.66 --> 3304.40] Harvey Eagle +[3304.40 --> 3305.22] and that should be +[3305.22 --> 3306.18] your first clue. +[3306.84 --> 3307.80] Marketing Chief. +[3308.34 --> 3309.52] If you had to market +[3309.52 --> 3310.04] the Xbox, +[3310.38 --> 3311.20] what would you do +[3311.20 --> 3311.70] other than +[3311.70 --> 3312.74] downplay resolution +[3312.74 --> 3314.44] and graphical horsepower? +[3315.40 --> 3316.46] Marketing Chief +[3316.46 --> 3317.38] didn't deny +[3317.38 --> 3318.22] the spec differences +[3318.22 --> 3319.04] but argued +[3319.04 --> 3320.10] that it is really hard +[3320.10 --> 3321.12] to tell the difference. +[3321.12 --> 3321.94] If you put +[3321.94 --> 3322.84] third-party games +[3322.84 --> 3323.56] side by side +[3323.56 --> 3324.02] that are running +[3324.02 --> 3324.90] at slightly different +[3324.90 --> 3326.02] resolutions or frame rates. +[3326.22 --> 3326.36] Now, +[3326.90 --> 3327.62] to be clear, +[3328.26 --> 3329.34] 1080p +[3329.34 --> 3330.78] and 792p +[3330.78 --> 3332.06] or even 900p +[3332.06 --> 3333.06] and 792p +[3333.06 --> 3333.74] are not slightly +[3333.74 --> 3334.62] different frame rates. +[3335.12 --> 3335.40] Also, +[3335.60 --> 3336.00] there are +[3336.00 --> 3337.72] resolutions rather. +[3338.16 --> 3338.50] Also, +[3338.76 --> 3340.06] there are other issues here. +[3340.46 --> 3341.06] The fact that +[3341.06 --> 3341.84] you're not running +[3341.84 --> 3343.00] at a native resolution +[3343.00 --> 3344.20] means that the image +[3344.20 --> 3345.16] is not as crisp. +[3345.74 --> 3346.54] It means that +[3346.54 --> 3347.80] you have to interpolate +[3347.80 --> 3349.04] which is bad. +[3349.30 --> 3350.10] It's terrible. +[3350.32 --> 3350.54] Anyway, +[3351.02 --> 3351.56] if you put the +[3351.56 --> 3351.98] blah, blah, blah +[3351.98 --> 3352.82] side by side +[3352.82 --> 3353.80] unless you're using +[3353.80 --> 3354.52] a screen that's +[3354.52 --> 3356.16] more than 60 inches big +[3356.16 --> 3357.30] I defy you +[3357.30 --> 3358.48] to really see the difference. +[3358.48 --> 3359.54] I personally struggle +[3359.54 --> 3360.46] to see the difference. +[3363.14 --> 3365.98] I had a debate +[3365.98 --> 3366.76] about this with someone +[3366.76 --> 3367.84] and one of the points +[3367.84 --> 3368.40] that I brought up +[3368.40 --> 3369.30] was that we seem +[3369.30 --> 3370.22] to be going backwards +[3370.22 --> 3371.68] and people are talking +[3371.68 --> 3372.64] about how on PS2 +[3372.64 --> 3373.34] they're playing games +[3373.34 --> 3374.00] at 60fps. +[3375.28 --> 3375.58] I'm like, +[3375.66 --> 3375.90] yeah, +[3376.26 --> 3377.10] that should be +[3377.10 --> 3378.08] a standard now. +[3378.48 --> 3379.50] We should not +[3379.50 --> 3380.36] have to be having +[3380.36 --> 3380.86] this debate +[3380.86 --> 3381.22] at this point. +[3381.22 --> 3381.68] It's funny because +[3381.68 --> 3382.88] Android games +[3382.88 --> 3383.62] are like, +[3383.96 --> 3384.20] yeah, +[3384.34 --> 3384.76] G3, +[3385.16 --> 3386.04] let's run it +[3386.04 --> 3386.98] at 1440p. +[3388.58 --> 3391.52] No wonder. +[3391.88 --> 3392.54] You know what? +[3392.96 --> 3393.40] You know how +[3393.40 --> 3394.54] Nvidia has talked +[3394.54 --> 3395.12] so much +[3395.12 --> 3396.38] about how +[3396.38 --> 3397.90] their Tegra chips +[3397.90 --> 3399.50] and mobile gaming +[3399.50 --> 3400.32] and the console +[3400.32 --> 3400.96] experience +[3400.96 --> 3401.90] and all that +[3401.90 --> 3402.82] with the mobile chips +[3402.82 --> 3403.46] and they're making +[3403.46 --> 3404.08] such a big deal +[3404.08 --> 3404.50] out of that. +[3404.90 --> 3405.14] I mean, +[3405.26 --> 3405.70] you've got to +[3405.70 --> 3406.72] imagine +[3406.72 --> 3408.36] how aware +[3408.36 --> 3409.58] a company like that +[3409.58 --> 3410.36] is of the kind +[3410.36 --> 3410.80] of crap +[3410.80 --> 3411.36] that was going +[3411.36 --> 3412.32] on with Watch Dogs +[3412.32 --> 3413.52] and how frustrated +[3413.52 --> 3414.18] they are +[3414.18 --> 3414.82] by the fact +[3414.82 --> 3415.42] that they rely +[3415.42 --> 3416.58] on these partners +[3416.58 --> 3417.78] to create +[3417.78 --> 3419.06] great PC games. +[3419.48 --> 3420.30] No wonder +[3420.30 --> 3421.86] they want to just +[3421.86 --> 3422.96] throw development +[3422.96 --> 3423.54] resources +[3423.54 --> 3424.24] at mobile. +[3424.24 --> 3425.04] At the Android guys +[3425.04 --> 3425.40] that are like, +[3425.58 --> 3426.24] like you just said, +[3426.32 --> 3426.58] yeah, +[3427.12 --> 3428.38] 1440p. +[3428.64 --> 3429.42] Where they're actually +[3429.42 --> 3430.08] trying to push +[3430.08 --> 3430.58] the envelope +[3430.58 --> 3431.62] and where the technology +[3431.62 --> 3432.70] is actually improving. +[3432.94 --> 3434.38] I hate Android games +[3434.38 --> 3434.60] though. +[3435.02 --> 3436.06] They just all suck. +[3436.98 --> 3437.14] Like, +[3437.20 --> 3438.36] I was looking through, +[3438.56 --> 3438.82] okay, +[3438.90 --> 3439.54] I haven't looked at +[3439.54 --> 3440.22] like any of the +[3440.22 --> 3441.18] actual ones on the store +[3441.18 --> 3442.14] so that might help +[3442.14 --> 3442.64] me a little bit. +[3442.74 --> 3442.88] Right. +[3443.02 --> 3443.86] But I was looking +[3443.86 --> 3444.76] through my Humble Bundle +[3444.76 --> 3445.40] Android games +[3445.40 --> 3446.10] which I have a ton +[3446.10 --> 3447.16] of the other day +[3447.16 --> 3447.60] because I was just +[3447.60 --> 3448.74] bored and waiting +[3448.74 --> 3449.20] somewhere. +[3449.60 --> 3449.92] I was like, +[3449.98 --> 3450.22] wow, +[3450.32 --> 3451.12] I don't want to play +[3451.12 --> 3452.08] any of these. +[3452.30 --> 3452.76] I know. +[3452.88 --> 3453.64] Like at all. +[3454.10 --> 3457.02] We need more developers +[3457.02 --> 3458.60] to figure out a way +[3458.60 --> 3459.66] to make Android games +[3459.66 --> 3460.44] much more profitable. +[3460.66 --> 3460.84] I mean, +[3460.92 --> 3461.60] Square's done it. +[3461.70 --> 3462.26] What did they charge? +[3462.34 --> 3463.60] $14.99 for their +[3463.60 --> 3464.60] Final Fantasy remakes +[3464.60 --> 3464.96] on Android? +[3465.64 --> 3465.86] Like, +[3465.90 --> 3466.72] we've seen +[3466.72 --> 3467.94] $15, +[3468.06 --> 3469.30] $20 Android games +[3469.30 --> 3469.72] before +[3469.72 --> 3470.72] but it's not +[3470.72 --> 3471.54] until that +[3471.54 --> 3472.22] becomes more +[3472.22 --> 3472.94] commonplace +[3472.94 --> 3473.98] and sales of games +[3473.98 --> 3474.40] like that +[3474.40 --> 3474.98] become more +[3474.98 --> 3475.42] mainstream +[3475.42 --> 3476.26] that we're going +[3476.26 --> 3476.94] to see developers +[3476.94 --> 3477.86] really invest +[3477.86 --> 3478.98] properly in the +[3478.98 --> 3479.76] stuff that matters +[3479.76 --> 3480.38] like storyline. +[3480.52 --> 3480.60] Like, +[3480.80 --> 3481.86] I had a lot of fun +[3481.86 --> 3482.96] playing Reaper. +[3483.62 --> 3484.26] Did you ever try it? +[3484.34 --> 3484.50] No. +[3484.78 --> 3485.74] It's great on shield +[3485.74 --> 3486.56] with a controller. +[3486.74 --> 3488.06] It's a total blast. +[3488.16 --> 3488.68] It's kind of like +[3488.68 --> 3489.36] a side-scrolling +[3489.36 --> 3490.60] level-based fighting game +[3490.60 --> 3492.42] but there's no depth +[3492.42 --> 3493.40] to it at all. +[3493.50 --> 3494.12] It's the kind of thing +[3494.12 --> 3494.96] that you play in bed +[3494.96 --> 3495.64] while you're drifting +[3495.64 --> 3496.38] off to sleep +[3496.38 --> 3497.26] and then like +[3497.26 --> 3497.98] the last fight +[3497.98 --> 3498.72] you die +[3498.72 --> 3499.44] because you actually +[3499.44 --> 3499.92] fell asleep. +[3499.92 --> 3501.52] It's that kind of game +[3501.52 --> 3503.40] and until they cost more +[3503.40 --> 3503.84] we're just +[3503.84 --> 3505.78] it's just the rules. +[3506.70 --> 3508.18] Until you pay for something +[3508.18 --> 3509.32] no one's going to make it +[3509.32 --> 3510.26] and the other way around. +[3510.78 --> 3511.98] And one thing I find +[3511.98 --> 3512.68] to be a problem too +[3512.68 --> 3513.38] is there's a lot of people +[3513.38 --> 3514.42] developing things +[3514.42 --> 3515.40] that actually look like +[3515.40 --> 3516.52] genuinely interesting games +[3516.52 --> 3517.86] and then +[3517.86 --> 3519.00] you start playing it +[3519.00 --> 3519.32] and you're like +[3519.32 --> 3521.18] this shouldn't be on a phone. +[3521.80 --> 3522.50] Don't you have a shield +[3522.50 --> 3522.80] right now? +[3523.20 --> 3523.54] I do. +[3523.78 --> 3524.30] Yeah, okay. +[3524.56 --> 3525.82] But like I'm talking more +[3525.82 --> 3526.64] if I'm like waiting +[3526.64 --> 3527.48] at a bus stop or something. +[3527.48 --> 3527.68] Right. +[3528.28 --> 3529.08] You know, it's funny. +[3529.18 --> 3530.78] I have almost no games +[3530.78 --> 3531.80] installed on my phone anymore. +[3532.36 --> 3533.58] I used to have like +[3533.58 --> 3535.02] at least 10 games +[3535.02 --> 3535.68] installed on my phone +[3535.68 --> 3536.44] at any given time. +[3536.56 --> 3538.20] But you play enough +[3538.20 --> 3538.72] Fruit Ninja +[3538.72 --> 3540.14] and you get to the point +[3540.14 --> 3540.86] where it's just not +[3540.86 --> 3541.64] entertaining anymore. +[3541.76 --> 3541.94] Yeah. +[3542.30 --> 3542.90] For me anyway. +[3543.00 --> 3543.46] One of my problems +[3543.46 --> 3543.98] right now is that +[3543.98 --> 3544.98] I am using a Moto X. +[3545.12 --> 3546.14] When I had my G2 +[3546.14 --> 3547.00] I had a lot more games +[3547.00 --> 3547.28] installed. +[3547.52 --> 3548.32] The screen's a lot bigger. +[3548.72 --> 3549.00] Right. +[3549.00 --> 3550.20] So it felt like +[3550.20 --> 3550.82] it's so +[3550.82 --> 3551.62] look at my thumbs. +[3552.48 --> 3553.18] Yeah, I played +[3553.18 --> 3554.24] Jetpack Joyride +[3554.24 --> 3555.32] a lot more +[3555.32 --> 3556.50] back when I was +[3556.50 --> 3557.44] using the iPad 2. +[3557.64 --> 3558.28] Jetpack Joyride +[3558.28 --> 3558.84] was pretty alright. +[3559.34 --> 3560.90] But the problem for me +[3560.90 --> 3562.32] is that for whatever reason +[3562.32 --> 3563.04] my account didn't +[3563.04 --> 3563.82] sync all my items +[3563.82 --> 3564.18] and stuff. +[3564.28 --> 3564.76] So I had like +[3564.76 --> 3565.68] the gold cuddles +[3565.68 --> 3566.30] and the gold +[3566.30 --> 3567.00] like everything +[3567.00 --> 3567.76] and I had like +[3567.76 --> 3568.54] every Jetpack. +[3568.92 --> 3569.64] So for me +[3569.64 --> 3570.42] whenever they were +[3570.42 --> 3571.12] releasing updates +[3571.12 --> 3571.62] because I refused +[3571.62 --> 3572.34] to pay for stuff +[3572.34 --> 3572.80] like that. +[3572.94 --> 3573.04] Yeah. +[3573.12 --> 3573.78] So I had actually +[3573.78 --> 3574.94] earned through coins +[3574.94 --> 3575.76] every single item +[3575.76 --> 3576.14] in the game. +[3576.22 --> 3576.50] That's what I was +[3576.50 --> 3576.92] working on too. +[3576.98 --> 3577.52] I didn't pay for anything. +[3577.72 --> 3578.90] And then as they +[3578.90 --> 3580.04] were rolling out new stuff +[3580.04 --> 3580.76] I would always have +[3580.76 --> 3581.68] kind of new stuff to buy +[3581.68 --> 3582.78] so it was my can game +[3582.78 --> 3583.02] right? +[3583.28 --> 3583.36] Yeah. +[3583.44 --> 3584.38] And then my account +[3584.38 --> 3584.90] didn't sync. +[3585.02 --> 3586.22] I upgraded to iOS 7 +[3586.22 --> 3586.82] and all my stuff +[3586.82 --> 3587.14] was gone. +[3587.22 --> 3587.54] I'm like yeah +[3587.54 --> 3588.40] I'm not gonna do that +[3588.40 --> 3588.60] again. +[3588.80 --> 3589.66] I switched phones. +[3589.84 --> 3590.38] I'm not gonna +[3590.38 --> 3591.80] you take away +[3591.80 --> 3592.58] my coin magnet +[3592.58 --> 3593.32] you might as well +[3593.32 --> 3594.06] cut off my balls. +[3595.54 --> 3595.94] Okay. +[3596.32 --> 3597.80] GTX Titan 2. +[3598.60 --> 3599.74] This was posted +[3599.74 --> 3601.66] like at like +[3601.66 --> 3603.48] 4.10 or something +[3603.48 --> 3604.96] an hour ago. +[3605.84 --> 3606.72] Someone linked this +[3606.72 --> 3607.28] to us and I was +[3607.28 --> 3608.42] just like oh god +[3608.42 --> 3609.64] get it in the dock. +[3610.04 --> 3612.12] Here is the rumor. +[3612.72 --> 3613.52] An NVIDIA product +[3613.52 --> 3614.36] going by the description +[3614.36 --> 3616.00] of GM200A1 graphics +[3616.00 --> 3616.80] processor has been +[3616.80 --> 3617.10] spotted. +[3617.32 --> 3618.06] This is kind of a +[3618.06 --> 3618.72] new thing hey? +[3619.26 --> 3619.46] What? +[3619.82 --> 3620.26] Couriers. +[3620.56 --> 3620.76] Yeah. +[3620.88 --> 3622.46] Seeing the documents +[3622.46 --> 3623.96] because legally they +[3623.96 --> 3625.02] have to say what's in +[3625.02 --> 3626.12] a package in order to +[3626.12 --> 3626.62] ship it somewhere. +[3627.06 --> 3628.24] So the couriers that +[3628.24 --> 3630.16] sit between NVIDIA's +[3630.16 --> 3631.80] production facility for +[3631.80 --> 3632.68] their engineering samples +[3632.68 --> 3633.50] and their testing +[3633.50 --> 3635.06] facility are apparently +[3635.06 --> 3636.74] picking up on graphics +[3636.74 --> 3637.42] card shipments. +[3637.42 --> 3638.52] So it's going to be +[3638.52 --> 3641.54] called GM200A1 graphics +[3641.54 --> 3642.24] processor. +[3643.58 --> 3644.30] The A1 stepping +[3644.30 --> 3645.08] signifies the +[3645.08 --> 3646.02] pre-production status +[3646.02 --> 3646.70] of the chip and it +[3646.70 --> 3647.42] will be upgraded to an +[3647.42 --> 3648.62] A2 stepping before +[3648.62 --> 3649.22] being pushed into +[3649.22 --> 3649.78] mass production for +[3649.78 --> 3650.48] the consumer market. +[3651.12 --> 3652.00] It is rumored to +[3652.00 --> 3653.36] feature over 4,000 +[3653.36 --> 3654.26] CUDA cores and a +[3654.26 --> 3655.14] widened memory bus +[3655.14 --> 3656.22] of 512 bits. +[3656.32 --> 3657.76] I find that very +[3657.76 --> 3658.72] hard to believe. +[3659.38 --> 3661.14] NVIDIA has avoided +[3661.14 --> 3663.82] at every turn going +[3663.82 --> 3666.08] to 512 bit as often +[3666.08 --> 3666.90] as they can, +[3667.02 --> 3668.08] every time they can. +[3668.22 --> 3668.84] They've gone as wide +[3668.84 --> 3670.60] as 384 and seem to be +[3670.60 --> 3671.28] okay with it. +[3671.48 --> 3672.48] But it is much more +[3672.48 --> 3673.48] expensive to put a +[3673.48 --> 3674.86] wider memory bus on a +[3674.86 --> 3675.08] chip. +[3675.16 --> 3675.70] You have to do more +[3675.70 --> 3676.48] contact points, you +[3676.48 --> 3676.94] have to do more +[3676.94 --> 3677.54] internal routing. +[3677.66 --> 3678.40] The design is much +[3678.40 --> 3679.84] more difficult and if +[3679.84 --> 3680.82] they don't have to do +[3680.82 --> 3681.80] it, then they don't +[3681.80 --> 3682.28] have to. +[3682.42 --> 3683.88] And with DDR4 coming +[3683.88 --> 3685.46] so soon and a +[3685.46 --> 3687.66] derivative of GDDR based +[3687.66 --> 3689.28] on DDR4 presumably in +[3689.28 --> 3691.46] the works, I don't know +[3691.46 --> 3692.50] that they would need +[3692.50 --> 3693.76] to widen the bus that +[3693.76 --> 3694.72] much more. +[3694.88 --> 3695.66] I mean, it's not like +[3695.66 --> 3697.62] we're limited on the +[3697.62 --> 3698.46] current generation +[3698.46 --> 3700.34] Kepler products by the +[3700.34 --> 3701.44] memory bus that much. +[3701.50 --> 3702.18] Memory overclocking +[3702.18 --> 3702.88] doesn't do a whole lot +[3702.88 --> 3703.44] for performance. +[3703.68 --> 3705.22] So we'll see. +[3705.42 --> 3706.40] Anyway, so it's rumored +[3706.40 --> 3707.82] to have a 512 bit bus +[3707.82 --> 3708.94] given the size of the +[3708.94 --> 3710.32] 28 nanometer process. +[3710.46 --> 3711.60] This new GPU will be +[3711.60 --> 3712.94] very, very large. +[3713.02 --> 3713.78] That's another thing is +[3713.78 --> 3714.80] NVIDIA doesn't give up +[3714.80 --> 3715.74] margin easily. +[3716.40 --> 3717.86] So telling NVIDIA, +[3718.10 --> 3720.02] hey, just for, there's +[3720.02 --> 3721.44] no competition that +[3721.44 --> 3722.28] has a faster card +[3722.28 --> 3723.66] than you, but you +[3723.66 --> 3725.20] should price this card +[3725.20 --> 3726.56] at $9.99 just like +[3726.56 --> 3728.06] the old Titan and you +[3728.06 --> 3729.84] should make the chip +[3729.84 --> 3730.30] bigger. +[3731.44 --> 3732.04] Like, they're going to +[3732.04 --> 3733.80] be like, okay, why? +[3734.62 --> 3735.62] Maybe we'll just do a +[3735.62 --> 3736.82] black edition instead. +[3737.90 --> 3738.82] Like they did. +[3739.06 --> 3739.94] Where it's the same +[3739.94 --> 3741.24] chip and they can still +[3741.24 --> 3741.92] sell it for the same +[3741.92 --> 3742.10] price. +[3742.16 --> 3742.92] So I don't know. +[3743.00 --> 3743.76] I'll be interested to +[3743.76 --> 3745.54] see how that shakes +[3745.54 --> 3745.82] down. +[3746.50 --> 3746.96] Ghost and I were kind +[3746.96 --> 3747.48] of screwing around with +[3747.48 --> 3748.14] the dock a little bit. +[3748.22 --> 3749.62] I deleted a lot of it, +[3749.68 --> 3750.60] but apparently not all +[3750.60 --> 3750.82] of it. +[3750.92 --> 3752.44] We had four or five +[3752.44 --> 3753.44] of that article and +[3753.44 --> 3754.30] we just titled it like +[3754.30 --> 3756.28] GTX Titan 3, GTX Titan 4, +[3756.44 --> 3757.42] GTX Titan 5. +[3757.58 --> 3758.40] We just changed every +[3758.40 --> 3759.50] single article to like +[3759.50 --> 3762.54] GK 310, GK 410, GK 510, +[3762.84 --> 3765.20] 999, 999, 999, 999. +[3765.62 --> 3766.50] So it's expected to +[3766.50 --> 3769.96] launch in the first half +[3769.96 --> 3771.36] of 2015, which is +[3771.36 --> 3772.30] probably a pretty safe +[3772.30 --> 3772.52] bet. +[3772.58 --> 3773.16] So we'll see how that +[3773.16 --> 3773.38] goes. +[3773.84 --> 3774.94] I haven't heard anything +[3774.94 --> 3775.42] about it. +[3775.78 --> 3777.80] What I can say is that +[3777.80 --> 3779.28] and I really, okay, to be +[3779.28 --> 3782.12] clear, I do not think it's +[3782.12 --> 3783.38] related to Titan 2. +[3783.50 --> 3784.24] I mean, the fact that +[3784.24 --> 3785.78] they're shipping A1 +[3785.78 --> 3787.50] silicon allegedly between +[3787.50 --> 3789.16] testing facilities means +[3789.16 --> 3791.80] it's nowhere even close to +[3791.80 --> 3792.38] hitting the market. +[3792.80 --> 3793.84] But I actually have a +[3793.84 --> 3794.72] meeting with Nvidia on +[3794.72 --> 3795.00] Monday. +[3795.08 --> 3795.82] I'll be flying down to +[3795.82 --> 3796.22] San Fran. +[3796.42 --> 3798.00] So it'll be interesting to +[3798.00 --> 3798.60] find out what that's +[3798.60 --> 3798.82] about. +[3798.82 --> 3799.88] There's been a lot of +[3799.88 --> 3800.90] rumor mill stuff going +[3800.90 --> 3801.92] around about Nvidia lately. +[3801.92 --> 3802.98] They're being really +[3802.98 --> 3803.92] cagey about this. +[3804.12 --> 3806.22] So not only am I, am I, +[3806.34 --> 3808.38] um, like they wouldn't +[3808.38 --> 3809.02] even tell me what the +[3809.02 --> 3810.40] meeting's about at all. +[3810.66 --> 3812.06] They're just like, get on +[3812.06 --> 3812.48] a plane. +[3812.74 --> 3815.78] And I'm like, okay, you +[3815.78 --> 3816.28] have a meeting. +[3816.28 --> 3818.58] And I'm like, okay, may I +[3818.58 --> 3819.32] know what it's about? +[3819.46 --> 3820.58] My wife has an ultrasound +[3820.58 --> 3821.98] that day and I'd rather not +[3821.98 --> 3822.42] miss it. +[3822.54 --> 3824.08] And they're like, I'm +[3824.08 --> 3825.12] like, can you, can you +[3825.12 --> 3826.02] brief me over the phone? +[3826.10 --> 3826.96] They're like, no. +[3827.88 --> 3831.40] I'm like, okay, can we do +[3831.40 --> 3832.10] a different day? +[3832.74 --> 3833.10] Yes. +[3833.52 --> 3833.74] Oh. +[3834.06 --> 3835.02] So it was, it was going +[3835.02 --> 3836.00] to be on the Tuesday and +[3836.00 --> 3836.82] I moved it to the Monday. +[3837.06 --> 3837.28] Oh. +[3837.44 --> 3838.26] So I can go to the +[3838.26 --> 3839.12] ultrasound on Tuesday. +[3839.24 --> 3839.58] That works. +[3839.70 --> 3840.82] But, uh, but anyway, they +[3840.82 --> 3841.68] won't tell me what it's +[3841.68 --> 3842.94] about at all. +[3843.14 --> 3844.22] And everything they tell +[3844.22 --> 3845.96] me is embargoed until a +[3845.96 --> 3847.06] date that presumably is +[3847.06 --> 3847.86] also embargoed. +[3848.08 --> 3849.32] So don't expect to hear +[3849.32 --> 3850.32] anything about this from +[3850.32 --> 3850.54] me. +[3850.66 --> 3850.76] At all. +[3850.76 --> 3851.86] Other than that, I have +[3851.86 --> 3852.52] a meeting with them and +[3852.52 --> 3853.20] I don't know what it's +[3853.20 --> 3853.52] about. +[3853.96 --> 3854.36] Damn it. +[3854.48 --> 3855.40] They didn't even respond +[3855.40 --> 3856.54] to my question of like, +[3856.60 --> 3857.08] what's it about? +[3857.86 --> 3859.34] Just, just, that's the +[3859.34 --> 3859.80] best. +[3859.80 --> 3861.08] That's definitely the +[3861.08 --> 3861.38] best. +[3861.50 --> 3861.98] I love Nvidia. +[3862.08 --> 3863.02] Well, I mean, my contact +[3863.02 --> 3864.34] there has been at Nvidia +[3864.34 --> 3866.22] for like 10 or 12 years or +[3866.22 --> 3866.96] something like that. +[3867.08 --> 3868.54] So he knows what's up at +[3868.54 --> 3868.88] Nvidia. +[3869.12 --> 3869.92] You do not leak +[3869.92 --> 3870.40] information. +[3870.40 --> 3871.06] It's like Apple. +[3871.28 --> 3872.68] Like if it's something where +[3872.68 --> 3873.92] he's allowed to tell me, he +[3873.92 --> 3875.22] will, like he and I have a +[3875.22 --> 3876.46] pretty good rapport, but if +[3876.46 --> 3877.28] it's something where he +[3877.28 --> 3878.32] can't, he's told not to +[3878.32 --> 3879.84] tell anyone, nobody will +[3879.84 --> 3880.12] know. +[3880.24 --> 3881.28] And that will be how it +[3881.28 --> 3881.50] is. +[3882.54 --> 3883.96] They are, they're like, +[3884.22 --> 3885.28] they're pretty crazy. +[3885.98 --> 3887.38] At Apple, sometimes even the +[3887.38 --> 3888.24] engineers don't really know +[3888.24 --> 3888.84] what's going on. +[3889.30 --> 3890.36] It's pretty insane. +[3890.74 --> 3891.56] Or at least that's how it +[3891.56 --> 3892.58] was when Jobs was around. +[3893.50 --> 3893.96] All right. +[3894.02 --> 3896.08] So this, this is a +[3896.08 --> 3897.22] controversial topic. +[3897.90 --> 3898.96] Actually, speaking of +[3898.96 --> 3900.22] controversial topics, why +[3900.22 --> 3901.66] don't we go ahead and do +[3901.66 --> 3903.70] our sponsor spots? +[3904.38 --> 3904.52] Woo! +[3905.82 --> 3907.06] It's a Dollar Shave Club. +[3907.62 --> 3909.90] By now, I hope most of you +[3909.90 --> 3910.82] understand what Dollar +[3910.82 --> 3912.30] Shave Club is. +[3912.30 --> 3913.86] So basically, I'm going to +[3913.86 --> 3914.74] take a bit of a slightly +[3914.74 --> 3916.42] different angle on it this +[3916.42 --> 3916.76] time. +[3917.38 --> 3918.38] Do you shave? +[3921.02 --> 3921.42] Okay. +[3921.56 --> 3921.98] So I'm going to let that +[3921.98 --> 3922.58] sink in for a moment. +[3923.70 --> 3925.64] Do you shave with razors? +[3926.78 --> 3927.54] I'm going to let that sink +[3927.54 --> 3928.08] in for a moment. +[3928.72 --> 3930.30] If you shave with razors, +[3930.66 --> 3932.04] how much do you pay per +[3932.04 --> 3932.36] month? +[3932.56 --> 3933.96] And how inconvenient is it +[3933.96 --> 3935.20] to go to the store and buy +[3935.20 --> 3937.32] them and all of that stuff? +[3938.94 --> 3939.34] Okay. +[3939.34 --> 3940.44] So I'm letting you guys +[3940.44 --> 3941.24] figure all this out. +[3941.60 --> 3943.66] If the answer was more +[3943.66 --> 3945.04] than, here we go, I'm just +[3945.04 --> 3945.74] going to load up Dollar +[3945.74 --> 3946.52] Shave Club's site. +[3946.62 --> 3947.38] I'm going to bring it up +[3947.38 --> 3949.50] on my, there's Mike. +[3949.58 --> 3950.76] Look how crazy he looks. +[3951.28 --> 3952.62] I saw him in an interview +[3952.62 --> 3954.28] and he looked a lot less +[3954.28 --> 3956.36] deranged and it made him +[3956.36 --> 3957.42] less, less frightening to +[3957.42 --> 3957.64] me. +[3958.06 --> 3958.56] But, um. +[3958.58 --> 3959.38] Is he was frightening in +[3959.38 --> 3959.86] that commercial? +[3960.64 --> 3961.70] With the, like, the +[3961.70 --> 3962.56] machete and everything? +[3963.84 --> 3964.72] Yeah, but he does it so +[3964.72 --> 3965.32] poorly, he doesn't even +[3965.32 --> 3965.76] cut the tape. +[3965.94 --> 3966.70] I know, but he's, like, +[3966.80 --> 3967.22] aggressive. +[3968.12 --> 3969.06] I mean, just because, okay, +[3969.06 --> 3969.90] would you, okay, so would, +[3969.98 --> 3971.20] just because I can't cut +[3971.20 --> 3972.16] tape with a machete, you +[3972.16 --> 3972.84] would let me swing it at +[3972.84 --> 3972.92] you? +[3972.98 --> 3974.68] It was a, no, it was a +[3974.68 --> 3974.98] joke. +[3975.14 --> 3976.00] You didn't swing it at a +[3976.00 --> 3976.24] person. +[3976.36 --> 3977.56] I know it's a joke and me +[3977.56 --> 3978.80] calling him deranged is a +[3978.80 --> 3979.36] joke too. +[3979.66 --> 3981.08] The point is that what's no +[3981.08 --> 3982.12] joke is their prices. +[3982.26 --> 3983.78] So if you're spending more +[3983.78 --> 3985.88] than six dollars or nine +[3985.88 --> 3987.80] bucks a month for a pretty +[3987.80 --> 3989.02] darn high-end razor, so +[3989.02 --> 3990.14] anywhere from four blades +[3990.14 --> 3992.54] to six blades, then you're +[3992.54 --> 3993.44] kind of getting screwed +[3993.44 --> 3994.42] because that includes +[3994.42 --> 3995.68] shipping and handling to +[3995.68 --> 3997.02] your door once a month +[3997.02 --> 3997.86] so that you're never +[3997.86 --> 3999.74] dragging an old broken +[3999.74 --> 4000.98] piece of glass or a rusty +[4000.98 --> 4002.20] nail across your face to +[4002.20 --> 4003.34] get a nice clean shave +[4003.34 --> 4004.60] and you don't have to go +[4004.60 --> 4005.54] to the store and get them +[4005.54 --> 4006.58] to unlock the cabinet and +[4006.58 --> 4007.32] buy razors anymore. +[4007.42 --> 4008.28] So guys, check it out. +[4008.56 --> 4009.38] Oh, I went to the wrong +[4009.38 --> 4009.64] thing. +[4010.18 --> 4011.36] Dollarshaveclub.com slash +[4011.36 --> 4012.76] Linus ensures that they +[4012.76 --> 4014.24] will continue to sponsor us +[4014.24 --> 4015.40] and sponsor the WAN show and +[4015.40 --> 4016.18] allow us to keep bringing +[4016.18 --> 4017.46] this great content to you. +[4017.86 --> 4019.04] Otherwise, you can, of +[4019.04 --> 4020.18] course, just go and sign up +[4020.18 --> 4022.20] for it on your own because +[4022.20 --> 4023.42] screw you, Linus. +[4023.42 --> 4023.92] Ha ha! +[4024.52 --> 4025.84] I'm an ad block and I'm a +[4025.84 --> 4027.12] not use your referral link, +[4027.20 --> 4028.02] but I like the idea of +[4028.02 --> 4028.94] Dollar Shave Club and you +[4028.94 --> 4029.24] know what? +[4029.26 --> 4030.48] I guess that's fine too. +[4030.90 --> 4031.76] Also, they have other +[4031.76 --> 4032.90] supplies like their shave +[4032.90 --> 4033.72] butter, which goes on +[4033.72 --> 4034.46] clear so you can see what +[4034.46 --> 4034.98] you're doing, and their +[4034.98 --> 4036.10] one-wipe Charlie's, which I +[4036.10 --> 4037.70] have promised to never +[4037.70 --> 4039.46] demo live on this show +[4039.46 --> 4041.26] because they're butt +[4041.26 --> 4041.56] wipes. +[4043.36 --> 4045.46] Also sponsoring today is +[4045.46 --> 4046.92] Lynda.com. +[4047.06 --> 4048.00] So the great thing about +[4048.00 --> 4050.02] Lynda.com is actually +[4050.02 --> 4051.90] just, I mean, who doesn't +[4051.90 --> 4052.78] like Lynda.com? +[4052.78 --> 4054.02] You like Lynda.com? +[4054.36 --> 4056.02] Taryn loves Lynda.com. +[4056.12 --> 4057.12] You know how, you know +[4057.12 --> 4059.26] what's funny is I'm usually +[4059.26 --> 4060.28] the one who does the +[4060.28 --> 4061.90] sponsor spots around here. +[4062.00 --> 4062.60] Like, I'm the one who +[4062.60 --> 4064.24] goes and memorizes or, in +[4064.24 --> 4065.52] the case of the 5-4 thing +[4065.52 --> 4066.90] last week, completely +[4066.90 --> 4067.84] doesn't memorize. +[4067.86 --> 4068.80] Totally non-memorized. +[4068.82 --> 4069.94] Totally not memorized. +[4070.28 --> 4072.86] Like, 100% inaccuracy. +[4073.04 --> 4074.12] I'm the one who memorizes +[4074.12 --> 4075.10] the talking points they +[4075.10 --> 4075.62] want us to hit. +[4075.62 --> 4075.82] You were very precise. +[4076.12 --> 4076.96] I'm the one who looks +[4076.96 --> 4078.16] into, you know, like, sort +[4078.16 --> 4079.36] of, are these guys legit? +[4079.62 --> 4080.32] Are they something like +[4080.32 --> 4082.04] Audible where it's really +[4082.04 --> 4083.32] easy for us to endorse them +[4083.32 --> 4084.04] because they've just got a +[4084.04 --> 4084.68] great service? +[4085.28 --> 4086.72] And normally I'm the one +[4086.72 --> 4087.50] who kind of has to do +[4087.50 --> 4088.14] that stuff. +[4088.36 --> 4089.90] Whereas with Lynda.com, +[4090.00 --> 4091.12] Taryn was like, ooh, ooh, +[4091.28 --> 4092.34] ooh, I want to do the +[4092.34 --> 4093.44] fastest possibles with the +[4093.44 --> 4094.36] Lynda.com integrations. +[4094.46 --> 4095.12] I love them. +[4095.18 --> 4096.04] I've been using them for +[4096.04 --> 4096.42] years. +[4096.78 --> 4098.44] So Lynda.com allows you to +[4098.44 --> 4099.42] learn all kinds of cool +[4099.42 --> 4099.72] skills. +[4099.82 --> 4100.66] You can learn programming +[4100.66 --> 4101.04] skills. +[4101.22 --> 4102.42] You could learn Photoshop, +[4102.66 --> 4103.28] Adobe Premiere. +[4103.28 --> 4104.94] You could work on your +[4104.94 --> 4105.96] DSLR skills. +[4105.96 --> 4107.20] And it's just video +[4107.20 --> 4108.72] tutorials by industry +[4108.72 --> 4109.94] experts that allow you to +[4109.94 --> 4111.72] learn at your own pace and +[4111.72 --> 4113.12] just study at your computer +[4113.12 --> 4114.36] and pick up new and +[4114.36 --> 4116.10] interesting hobbies or even +[4116.10 --> 4117.10] practical skills that you +[4117.10 --> 4117.80] can use and work. +[4117.96 --> 4119.28] So Taryn is a great +[4119.28 --> 4120.28] example that I love to +[4120.28 --> 4121.82] bring up because his +[4121.82 --> 4123.82] Adobe experience has +[4123.82 --> 4125.06] actually ultimately, +[4125.26 --> 4126.18] that he started gaining +[4126.18 --> 4127.10] from Lynda.com, has +[4127.10 --> 4128.80] ultimately turned into a +[4128.80 --> 4130.34] full-time job for him. +[4130.46 --> 4132.42] And in my mind, hopefully, +[4132.54 --> 4133.70] hopefully a career because I +[4133.70 --> 4134.74] think he does a great job +[4134.74 --> 4135.50] of producing YouTube +[4135.50 --> 4136.44] content and internet +[4136.44 --> 4136.92] content. +[4137.52 --> 4139.28] And that's the kind of +[4139.28 --> 4140.14] power that something like +[4140.14 --> 4141.04] Lynda.com has. +[4141.28 --> 4142.68] And what's good about it is +[4142.68 --> 4143.52] if you go to Lynda.com +[4143.52 --> 4144.98] slash Wancho, you can get +[4144.98 --> 4146.78] a free seven-day trial and +[4146.78 --> 4147.26] check it out. +[4147.54 --> 4148.50] And speaking of full-time +[4148.50 --> 4149.20] jobs and stuff, I know +[4149.20 --> 4149.96] tons of people on the +[4149.96 --> 4150.82] forum and tons of people in +[4150.82 --> 4151.88] the community in general are +[4151.88 --> 4152.58] interested in jobs in +[4152.58 --> 4153.70] computers, particularly +[4153.70 --> 4154.46] programming. +[4154.64 --> 4155.16] If you're thinking about +[4155.16 --> 4155.96] going into programming and +[4155.96 --> 4157.10] you're in high school, the +[4157.10 --> 4158.42] courses you're taking are +[4158.42 --> 4159.82] probably not hard enough. +[4160.46 --> 4161.36] Jump on Lynda and start +[4161.36 --> 4161.98] learning some actual +[4161.98 --> 4162.34] languages. +[4162.56 --> 4163.34] It'll help a lot. +[4163.34 --> 4164.86] You'll have a huge leg up +[4164.86 --> 4165.44] once you get to +[4165.44 --> 4167.00] university and you'll be +[4167.00 --> 4168.50] able to work on stuff in +[4168.50 --> 4169.32] your own time, which is +[4169.32 --> 4170.06] more interesting and will +[4170.06 --> 4170.88] teach you more than your +[4170.88 --> 4171.74] courses probably will be +[4171.74 --> 4172.46] teaching you because your +[4172.46 --> 4173.38] courses are probably out of +[4173.38 --> 4174.84] date, but Lynda is not +[4174.84 --> 4175.66] going to be out of date. +[4175.92 --> 4176.62] So there you go. +[4176.74 --> 4178.04] Two strong endorsements +[4178.04 --> 4179.66] around here for Lynda.com +[4179.66 --> 4180.76] from people who have +[4180.76 --> 4182.18] legit used it to do things +[4182.18 --> 4183.48] that they legit have jobs +[4183.48 --> 4184.18] doing right now. +[4184.38 --> 4184.56] Yep. +[4184.86 --> 4186.34] So there you go. +[4186.42 --> 4186.92] Lynda's kind of +[4186.92 --> 4187.42] fantastic. +[4187.60 --> 4188.22] Pretty darn cool. +[4188.22 --> 4188.60] I highly recommend it. +[4189.42 --> 4189.86] All right. +[4189.98 --> 4191.18] And the last thing that I +[4191.18 --> 4192.16] should probably say, not +[4192.16 --> 4193.30] related to our sponsors for +[4193.30 --> 4194.70] this week, but actually 5-4 +[4194.70 --> 4196.72] from last week, they +[4196.72 --> 4197.32] weren't mad. +[4199.28 --> 4199.72] Surprisingly. +[4200.46 --> 4201.56] So for those of you who +[4201.56 --> 4202.80] weren't watching last week, +[4203.18 --> 4205.30] 5-4 Club clothing, we had a +[4205.30 --> 4207.00] sponsor thing for them and I +[4207.00 --> 4207.88] butchered it. +[4208.08 --> 4209.68] I got the pricing wrong. +[4210.18 --> 4214.16] I think I got the offer code +[4214.16 --> 4214.52] wrong. +[4214.90 --> 4216.44] I got the value of the +[4216.44 --> 4217.44] clothing that they send you +[4217.44 --> 4217.76] wrong. +[4217.76 --> 4219.04] I got the special offer +[4219.04 --> 4219.92] that day wrong. +[4219.92 --> 4221.70] Like, I got everything +[4221.70 --> 4222.26] wrong. +[4222.64 --> 4224.02] But apparently, apparently +[4224.02 --> 4225.36] so many of you were like, +[4225.44 --> 4226.32] oh yeah, this looks kind of +[4226.32 --> 4227.88] cool and signed up that +[4227.88 --> 4228.88] they're just like, yeah, no, +[4228.92 --> 4229.50] it's cool, dude. +[4229.96 --> 4230.66] It's fine. +[4231.40 --> 4232.90] At least you said like some +[4232.90 --> 4233.62] words, I guess. +[4233.74 --> 4233.96] Cool. +[4234.16 --> 4234.48] All right. +[4234.76 --> 4235.08] Yeah. +[4235.30 --> 4236.92] At least you had like our +[4236.92 --> 4237.94] logo at the bottom of the +[4237.94 --> 4238.18] screen. +[4238.18 --> 4238.98] And you wore a shirt. +[4238.98 --> 4240.50] We're just spouting nonsense. +[4243.74 --> 4244.14] Fantastic. +[4244.64 --> 4246.00] Oh, so, okay. +[4246.12 --> 4247.06] So let's move on to this +[4247.06 --> 4248.52] topic that actually hits +[4248.52 --> 4249.94] pretty close to home for me. +[4250.38 --> 4252.26] So LG's new wearable is a +[4252.26 --> 4252.80] child tracker. +[4252.96 --> 4253.06] Okay. +[4253.14 --> 4255.08] One, it's butt ugly and they +[4255.08 --> 4256.08] need to get smaller. +[4256.70 --> 4257.14] Yeah. +[4257.14 --> 4257.82] It's absurd. +[4257.92 --> 4258.78] You can't put that kind of +[4258.78 --> 4259.32] thing on a child. +[4259.32 --> 4259.60] Look how big it is on the +[4259.60 --> 4260.30] girl's wrist mainly. +[4260.38 --> 4260.62] I know. +[4260.68 --> 4261.22] This is ridiculous. +[4261.48 --> 4263.70] These need to be barrettes or +[4263.70 --> 4265.04] they need to be like, they +[4265.04 --> 4266.04] need to be something the kid +[4266.04 --> 4267.10] feels cool wearing. +[4267.10 --> 4268.76] Um, that's the kind of +[4268.76 --> 4269.72] thing that they need to be. +[4269.86 --> 4270.90] They need to be, they need +[4270.90 --> 4272.22] to have at least a two to +[4272.22 --> 4273.42] three day battery life. +[4273.62 --> 4274.56] I mean, we're talking if a +[4274.56 --> 4275.90] child's missing, but +[4275.90 --> 4276.82] potentially being moved +[4276.82 --> 4278.06] around very quickly, or +[4278.06 --> 4278.84] there's something interfering +[4278.84 --> 4280.04] with the signal, you need +[4280.04 --> 4281.34] to have a few days to +[4281.34 --> 4282.90] potentially get a lock on +[4282.90 --> 4283.08] it. +[4283.42 --> 4284.30] Um, so there's, there's, +[4284.38 --> 4285.50] this technology needs to +[4285.50 --> 4287.08] advance before it's actually +[4287.08 --> 4288.14] that useful and before it's +[4288.14 --> 4288.80] the kind of thing that I +[4288.80 --> 4289.32] would buy. +[4289.40 --> 4290.58] But as someone who has +[4290.58 --> 4292.02] lost a cat, as someone who +[4292.02 --> 4293.66] has a child and would worry +[4293.66 --> 4294.52] about losing them. +[4294.72 --> 4295.90] Has not lost child though. +[4295.90 --> 4297.22] I have not lost him yet. +[4297.36 --> 4299.92] Um, I would buy this and I +[4299.92 --> 4300.70] would put it on my kids. +[4300.82 --> 4301.40] I see a lot of people +[4301.40 --> 4302.40] freaking out over this and +[4302.40 --> 4303.84] this is the kind of thing +[4303.84 --> 4305.54] that I would go, no, this +[4305.54 --> 4306.74] is not okay, blah, blah, +[4306.78 --> 4307.40] blah, normally. +[4308.12 --> 4309.80] But it's a very obvious +[4309.80 --> 4310.20] device. +[4310.34 --> 4311.28] Your kid knows what it's +[4311.28 --> 4312.38] freaking for and look how +[4312.38 --> 4313.18] old the kids are. +[4313.26 --> 4314.28] Okay, but I'm talking about +[4314.28 --> 4315.18] giving them barrettes and +[4315.18 --> 4315.40] stuff. +[4315.50 --> 4318.02] So that's what I would buy. +[4318.24 --> 4318.88] That's fine. +[4319.22 --> 4320.56] Um, my main point is look +[4320.56 --> 4321.46] how old the kids are in +[4321.46 --> 4321.68] this. +[4321.76 --> 4322.76] They're not targeting this at +[4322.76 --> 4323.76] like 17 year olds. +[4324.12 --> 4325.04] Well, yeah, no, that's +[4325.04 --> 4325.38] ridiculous. +[4325.38 --> 4326.46] That's what I'm saying. +[4326.50 --> 4327.10] A lot of people in the +[4327.10 --> 4327.98] thing are like, oh, you +[4327.98 --> 4328.68] shouldn't be able to listen +[4328.68 --> 4329.60] to your kid's conversation. +[4329.70 --> 4330.54] I was like, the kid's like +[4330.54 --> 4331.00] seven. +[4331.10 --> 4332.36] Yeah, so the way it works is +[4332.36 --> 4333.58] the kid can press a direct +[4333.58 --> 4334.72] call button to contact a +[4334.72 --> 4336.60] pre-configured number and if +[4336.60 --> 4337.72] the kid doesn't pick up an +[4337.72 --> 4338.86] incoming call from the +[4338.86 --> 4339.90] parent's number within 10 +[4339.90 --> 4341.22] seconds, the device just +[4341.22 --> 4342.64] puts the call through and +[4342.64 --> 4343.70] then lets the parent listen +[4343.70 --> 4344.72] to what's going on. +[4344.86 --> 4346.24] And people who are upset +[4346.24 --> 4347.52] about that, again, they +[4347.52 --> 4349.08] don't seem to understand who +[4349.08 --> 4349.82] this is targeted at. +[4350.20 --> 4352.04] There's nothing my six-year-old +[4352.04 --> 4354.08] should be discussing that I +[4354.08 --> 4354.52] can't hear. +[4355.58 --> 4357.34] It gets different once we're +[4357.34 --> 4359.06] talking, you know, 9, 10, +[4359.18 --> 4360.66] pre-adolescent type age where +[4360.66 --> 4362.82] they have privacy. +[4363.06 --> 4364.86] But if they're at the age where +[4364.86 --> 4366.32] they're still, you're still, you +[4366.32 --> 4367.88] know, sitting supervising them, +[4368.04 --> 4369.28] bathing in the tub with all of +[4369.28 --> 4372.04] their siblings, I mean, they're... +[4372.80 --> 4375.58] What's, and like, I don't know. +[4375.76 --> 4376.90] And like the tracking thing, +[4377.02 --> 4377.36] yeah. +[4377.36 --> 4377.44] Yeah. +[4378.10 --> 4379.38] Maybe at a certain age they +[4379.38 --> 4380.40] need to be able to kind of +[4380.40 --> 4381.12] just take off. +[4381.98 --> 4382.82] Not at six. +[4383.56 --> 4383.80] Yeah. +[4383.96 --> 4384.88] Not at that age. +[4384.98 --> 4386.02] They shouldn't be on their +[4386.02 --> 4386.26] own. +[4386.40 --> 4387.70] And I mean, this is the kind +[4387.70 --> 4389.84] of thing that 100% I would +[4389.84 --> 4390.06] buy. +[4390.52 --> 4391.34] Someone's like, oh my God, +[4391.36 --> 4392.28] what if the kid is asleep? +[4392.36 --> 4393.02] Have you ever heard of a +[4393.02 --> 4393.56] baby monitor? +[4394.88 --> 4395.88] It's like so much more +[4395.88 --> 4397.12] intrusive than a baby monitor. +[4397.22 --> 4397.92] I mean, so much less +[4397.92 --> 4398.96] intrusive than a baby monitor. +[4399.08 --> 4399.58] What are you talking about? +[4399.58 --> 4400.08] Well, yes and no, because +[4400.08 --> 4400.94] it's like strapped to the +[4400.94 --> 4401.22] kid. +[4401.66 --> 4402.68] Yeah, but the baby monitor +[4402.68 --> 4403.56] has a camera on it. +[4403.82 --> 4404.24] Not always. +[4404.52 --> 4405.54] I have just an audio baby +[4405.54 --> 4406.08] monitor. +[4406.24 --> 4406.64] Oh, okay. +[4406.64 --> 4406.90] Yeah. +[4407.20 --> 4407.36] Yeah. +[4408.08 --> 4409.10] Mine's actually awesome. +[4409.18 --> 4409.50] I don't know. +[4409.64 --> 4410.92] I don't even want a baby, +[4411.08 --> 4411.94] so I don't know. +[4413.06 --> 4415.36] I actually, oh, I forget +[4415.36 --> 4416.02] what it's called. +[4416.08 --> 4416.84] I think it's called like +[4416.84 --> 4418.70] the Mimo or something. +[4419.42 --> 4419.82] Baby. +[4420.04 --> 4420.36] I don't know. +[4420.44 --> 4421.74] I fully understand and +[4421.74 --> 4422.86] would be agree with and +[4422.86 --> 4423.98] totally be on the side of +[4423.98 --> 4424.60] the people that are +[4424.60 --> 4426.14] freaking out if it was +[4426.14 --> 4427.64] targeted in a very +[4427.64 --> 4429.62] stealthy manner at an +[4429.62 --> 4430.70] older age group. +[4431.44 --> 4431.96] But it's a very. +[4432.14 --> 4433.68] That's a totally different. +[4433.70 --> 4434.26] Totally different +[4434.26 --> 4434.62] conversation. +[4434.72 --> 4435.64] That's like very young. +[4435.64 --> 4436.54] That's like the boyfriend +[4436.54 --> 4437.86] tracker app that got +[4437.86 --> 4438.56] pulled off the Google +[4438.56 --> 4439.02] Play Store. +[4439.20 --> 4439.86] Totally not okay with +[4439.86 --> 4440.02] that. +[4440.18 --> 4440.96] Not okay with boyfriend +[4440.96 --> 4441.26] tracker. +[4441.38 --> 4442.10] Not okay with girlfriend +[4442.10 --> 4442.42] tracker. +[4442.54 --> 4444.76] Not okay with like my son +[4444.76 --> 4446.18] is 17 years old tracker. +[4446.62 --> 4447.66] All that stuff is stupid. +[4448.04 --> 4448.92] But when it's like a +[4448.92 --> 4450.66] six-year-old kid or this. +[4451.02 --> 4451.54] This is cool. +[4451.80 --> 4451.92] Yeah. +[4451.92 --> 4453.36] So this is the Mimo. +[4453.50 --> 4454.84] I actually pre-ordered this +[4454.84 --> 4456.82] and basically what it is +[4456.82 --> 4458.58] is their marketing is just +[4458.58 --> 4459.80] horrendous though. +[4459.98 --> 4460.34] I'm sorry. +[4460.34 --> 4461.18] I'm going to interject for a +[4461.18 --> 4461.52] quick second. +[4461.62 --> 4462.92] We were talking about text +[4462.92 --> 4463.54] messages from. +[4463.54 --> 4464.50] Oh for crying out loud. +[4464.72 --> 4466.62] $500 prepaid cards to take a +[4466.62 --> 4467.24] quick survey. +[4467.70 --> 4469.06] About your call with a +[4469.06 --> 4470.50] Telus customer service rep. +[4471.04 --> 4471.44] Unbelievable. +[4471.84 --> 4472.96] I haven't even had one. +[4473.20 --> 4473.52] Ugh. +[4473.94 --> 4474.94] Like this is ridiculous. +[4475.16 --> 4476.06] I haven't had a call with +[4476.06 --> 4476.64] them in forever. +[4477.44 --> 4478.96] Telus my ISP just randomly +[4478.96 --> 4479.96] sent me a text message. +[4480.02 --> 4480.54] We were talking about how +[4480.54 --> 4481.18] that's bullcrap. +[4481.46 --> 4482.12] I've been saying about how +[4482.12 --> 4483.42] I get them all the time now. +[4483.46 --> 4485.40] His ISP and his phone +[4485.40 --> 4485.64] provider. +[4485.64 --> 4485.90] Yes. +[4486.02 --> 4486.24] Sorry. +[4486.46 --> 4486.60] Yeah. +[4486.68 --> 4486.88] Both. +[4486.88 --> 4489.10] Anyway so you are a great +[4489.10 --> 4490.12] parent for buying our product. +[4490.24 --> 4491.04] I hate this kind of crap. +[4491.34 --> 4493.14] But it is actually really +[4493.14 --> 4493.40] cool. +[4493.50 --> 4494.70] So it lets you monitor their +[4494.70 --> 4496.12] breathing, temperature, +[4496.76 --> 4497.68] stuff like that. +[4497.72 --> 4499.38] And it's just a onesie that +[4499.38 --> 4499.64] they wear. +[4499.80 --> 4501.90] Yeah we saw this at CES right? +[4502.10 --> 4503.46] And it had what was it? +[4503.64 --> 4504.42] Galileo or something? +[4504.86 --> 4505.70] I don't remember. +[4505.76 --> 4506.54] It was one of the Intel +[4506.54 --> 4507.70] little microchips in it which +[4507.70 --> 4508.14] is pretty cool. +[4508.16 --> 4510.42] So I plan to do like a +[4510.42 --> 4511.36] review of it or something +[4511.36 --> 4512.46] when the new baby lands. +[4512.60 --> 4512.96] That's cool. +[4512.96 --> 4514.02] I should follow up on my +[4514.02 --> 4514.88] order because the baby's +[4514.88 --> 4515.92] coming soon and I remember +[4515.92 --> 4516.86] doing the math and it was +[4516.88 --> 4517.94] supposed to arrive in time. +[4518.24 --> 4519.06] I love when you check your +[4519.06 --> 4519.98] smartwatch because you do it +[4519.98 --> 4520.50] so officially. +[4522.06 --> 4523.76] Oh well the issue is that +[4523.76 --> 4525.42] okay here this is my one +[4525.42 --> 4526.24] complaint about the pebble +[4526.24 --> 4528.40] steel is that it tends to +[4528.40 --> 4530.50] sit here on my wrist with +[4530.50 --> 4532.68] this buckle in the middle and +[4532.68 --> 4534.06] it like not in the middle off +[4534.06 --> 4535.20] to the side even though I've +[4535.20 --> 4536.26] shortened this side as much +[4536.26 --> 4537.20] as I possibly can. +[4537.56 --> 4539.18] So I often have to kind of +[4539.18 --> 4540.46] give it a shake. +[4540.80 --> 4542.42] So the whip does two things +[4542.42 --> 4543.52] because that illuminates the +[4543.52 --> 4545.04] backlight on the pebble and +[4545.04 --> 4545.72] it puts it in a better +[4545.72 --> 4546.52] position for me to read it. +[4546.52 --> 4546.96] That makes sense. +[4547.18 --> 4548.16] It just looks so official +[4548.16 --> 4548.58] every time. +[4548.62 --> 4549.68] And the reason I look at my +[4549.68 --> 4551.58] watch so often is because I +[4551.58 --> 4552.46] don't just want to know what +[4552.46 --> 4553.02] time it is. +[4553.20 --> 4554.68] I also check to find out what +[4554.68 --> 4556.44] the date and month is because +[4556.44 --> 4557.74] I often forget these things. +[4558.54 --> 4559.44] We're having a conversation +[4559.44 --> 4559.82] that day. +[4559.92 --> 4560.90] When you work so much +[4560.90 --> 4562.52] sometimes you just focus too +[4562.52 --> 4563.40] much on the thing at hand and +[4563.40 --> 4564.66] you have no short-term memory +[4564.66 --> 4564.98] anymore. +[4565.42 --> 4566.68] What was that video I just +[4566.68 --> 4566.92] filmed? +[4567.04 --> 4567.80] I'm not sure. +[4568.08 --> 4570.74] Oh one of the NCIX higher +[4570.74 --> 4572.54] ups came into the studio today +[4572.54 --> 4574.16] when we were filming and he was +[4574.16 --> 4575.56] like Linus what do you think of +[4575.56 --> 4576.96] the Lenovo X1 Carbon? +[4577.32 --> 4578.64] And I'm like I don't know. +[4579.32 --> 4579.80] What is it? +[4579.86 --> 4581.42] And he's like well you did a +[4581.42 --> 4581.96] video of it. +[4582.16 --> 4582.84] I'm like really? +[4585.34 --> 4585.94] Did I? +[4586.32 --> 4586.64] Oh. +[4586.92 --> 4588.44] If you see the video then you'll +[4588.44 --> 4589.20] remember and you'll be able to +[4589.20 --> 4589.68] talk about it. +[4589.80 --> 4590.04] But like. +[4590.10 --> 4590.50] Probably not. +[4590.76 --> 4590.96] No? +[4591.12 --> 4591.28] No. +[4591.38 --> 4591.58] No. +[4591.72 --> 4593.12] I don't remember a thing about it. +[4593.22 --> 4594.06] I have to get triggers. +[4594.60 --> 4595.42] I won't remember but if +[4595.42 --> 4596.90] someone's like look you did the +[4596.90 --> 4597.96] video I'll be like oh yeah +[4597.96 --> 4599.18] here's a bunch of extra stuff I +[4599.18 --> 4599.56] can say. +[4599.56 --> 4600.92] But yeah I don't know. +[4601.12 --> 4604.12] Alright so let's play Hot or +[4604.12 --> 4604.64] Not. +[4605.34 --> 4608.00] And I am I'm putting a bit of a +[4608.00 --> 4609.00] different spin on it than you +[4609.00 --> 4610.00] might be expecting. +[4611.28 --> 4612.38] So hold on a second. +[4612.52 --> 4613.64] What's that site called? +[4613.82 --> 4614.66] Speaking of no memory. +[4614.78 --> 4615.10] Strawpool. +[4615.12 --> 4615.32] Strawpool. +[4615.34 --> 4615.80] There we go. +[4616.48 --> 4618.06] Hot or not. +[4618.24 --> 4619.22] And we are going to have three +[4619.22 --> 4619.88] options. +[4620.56 --> 4620.96] Hot. +[4621.48 --> 4622.00] Not. +[4623.12 --> 4623.60] Slick. +[4624.46 --> 4624.90] Okay. +[4624.90 --> 4625.04] Okay. +[4627.28 --> 4628.28] So here we go. +[4628.28 --> 4629.94] But you guys have to look at it +[4629.94 --> 4630.52] first. +[4631.06 --> 4632.52] Don't vote yet. +[4633.88 --> 4635.06] Because everyone's just going to +[4635.06 --> 4635.78] vote for you. +[4636.04 --> 4637.38] And I do legitimately want an +[4637.38 --> 4637.90] answer here. +[4638.24 --> 4638.60] Yes. +[4638.86 --> 4639.04] Vote for me. +[4639.04 --> 4641.54] The new Inwin S frame. +[4641.92 --> 4643.38] So it's a limited edition for +[4643.38 --> 4643.58] sale. +[4643.70 --> 4644.28] Mind you. +[4644.64 --> 4646.50] They said that stupid pipe one +[4646.50 --> 4647.44] was limited edition. +[4647.58 --> 4648.64] First it was limited edition. +[4648.94 --> 4651.40] Then it's like limited edition of +[4651.40 --> 4652.44] each color and we're going to do a +[4652.44 --> 4652.96] bunch of colors. +[4653.34 --> 4654.34] And then now they just kind of +[4654.34 --> 4655.18] still seem to be around. +[4655.28 --> 4656.18] Anyway I don't know how limited +[4656.18 --> 4656.98] any of this stuff is. +[4656.98 --> 4658.84] But limited edition up for sale. +[4659.24 --> 4661.06] Basically this is a new case +[4661.06 --> 4662.74] construction concept that has a +[4662.74 --> 4664.96] single piece of aluminum folded +[4664.96 --> 4666.90] over and over again. +[4667.02 --> 4667.44] So bent, +[4667.60 --> 4667.82] bent, +[4667.94 --> 4668.12] bent, +[4668.22 --> 4668.36] bent. +[4668.42 --> 4670.04] Something that I personally have an +[4670.04 --> 4671.04] appreciation for. +[4671.52 --> 4672.48] So my TJ07. +[4672.92 --> 4674.62] I love that it's a single unibody +[4674.62 --> 4676.08] piece of aluminum for the top, +[4676.36 --> 4676.56] front, +[4676.72 --> 4677.32] and bottom. +[4678.16 --> 4679.82] Although this one is a little +[4679.82 --> 4680.86] out there looking for me. +[4680.94 --> 4682.48] I prefer a more classical style +[4682.48 --> 4682.88] design. +[4683.26 --> 4684.58] So basically they fold it, +[4684.66 --> 4684.94] fold it, +[4685.00 --> 4685.28] fold it, +[4685.28 --> 4686.58] and then add two slices of +[4686.58 --> 4687.30] tempered glass. +[4687.42 --> 4688.30] I love that. +[4688.86 --> 4691.34] Glass needs to be a more +[4691.34 --> 4693.60] prominent design material, +[4693.96 --> 4695.14] or like a more frequently used +[4695.14 --> 4697.42] design material for computer cases +[4697.42 --> 4699.06] versus acrylic because acrylic is +[4699.06 --> 4699.44] poopy. +[4699.82 --> 4701.02] And then there are carbon fiber +[4701.02 --> 4702.16] areas for cable routing. +[4702.26 --> 4703.38] This is a good view of it right +[4703.38 --> 4703.64] here. +[4703.64 --> 4706.18] So you can see how this piece is +[4706.18 --> 4706.54] folded, +[4706.82 --> 4707.08] folded, +[4707.34 --> 4707.60] folded, +[4707.78 --> 4708.00] folded, +[4708.14 --> 4708.32] folded. +[4708.42 --> 4709.54] The motherboard tray mounts right +[4709.54 --> 4709.86] here. +[4710.08 --> 4711.66] And then there's also a demo build +[4711.66 --> 4713.80] here that was on display that you +[4713.80 --> 4715.62] guys can check out with liquid +[4715.62 --> 4716.00] cooling. +[4716.42 --> 4717.92] So here's what I want to know, +[4718.06 --> 4718.40] Twitch, +[4718.84 --> 4720.76] hot or not? +[4720.90 --> 4721.76] Here is the link, +[4721.90 --> 4723.28] the official straw poll link. +[4723.72 --> 4725.42] I'm just going to paste these a few +[4725.42 --> 4727.12] times here so you guys can get your +[4727.12 --> 4727.74] votes in. +[4727.74 --> 4730.86] So what do you think? +[4732.92 --> 4734.12] I'm watching votes come in. +[4735.02 --> 4736.42] What do I think about the case? +[4736.66 --> 4738.10] You're just watching your ego come +[4738.10 --> 4738.88] in is what you're watching. +[4738.90 --> 4739.32] Pretty much, +[4739.48 --> 4739.78] actually. +[4740.38 --> 4741.64] So what do I think about the case? +[4741.68 --> 4742.18] Is that your question? +[4742.42 --> 4742.64] Yeah. +[4743.42 --> 4744.04] Hot or not? +[4744.72 --> 4746.04] I think it's very cool that it's a +[4746.04 --> 4746.70] solid piece of aluminum. +[4746.96 --> 4747.40] I think it's very cool. +[4747.40 --> 4747.46] So wait, +[4747.50 --> 4747.76] hold on, +[4747.80 --> 4748.04] hold on, +[4748.06 --> 4748.32] hold on. +[4749.46 --> 4752.10] So cool would be not then. +[4755.46 --> 4756.26] I think it's very hot. +[4756.26 --> 4757.26] Something that's cool is by +[4757.26 --> 4757.62] definition, +[4757.74 --> 4758.08] not hot. +[4758.12 --> 4760.24] I think it's very hot that it has +[4760.24 --> 4761.22] a solid piece of aluminum. +[4761.62 --> 4761.90] Okay. +[4761.96 --> 4762.16] Okay. +[4762.16 --> 4762.58] It's going to get awkward. +[4762.60 --> 4762.76] Sorry, +[4762.82 --> 4762.94] sorry. +[4763.46 --> 4764.60] I think it's very cool it has a +[4764.60 --> 4765.16] solid piece of aluminum. +[4765.32 --> 4766.24] I really appreciate that they +[4766.24 --> 4767.28] actually use glass. +[4768.86 --> 4770.42] What I don't like is that it's, +[4770.68 --> 4771.92] if you take the one piece of +[4771.92 --> 4772.40] glass off, +[4772.44 --> 4773.66] it's like a glorified test bench +[4773.66 --> 4775.08] because of how open air it is. +[4775.26 --> 4775.54] Right. +[4775.96 --> 4777.00] So it's a bit of a dust. +[4777.00 --> 4779.18] The guy that posted the thread +[4779.18 --> 4781.14] brought up the idea that like, +[4781.22 --> 4782.42] you can't look at this like a +[4782.42 --> 4783.28] performance box. +[4783.66 --> 4783.78] Right. +[4783.90 --> 4784.74] Look at it like an art +[4784.74 --> 4785.26] installation. +[4785.80 --> 4786.02] I don't, +[4786.14 --> 4787.06] that's not his exact words, +[4787.06 --> 4787.98] but that's essentially what he +[4787.98 --> 4788.28] was saying. +[4789.02 --> 4790.70] And that's an interesting idea, +[4790.98 --> 4792.80] but the thing is just going to, +[4792.88 --> 4793.04] like, +[4793.08 --> 4793.86] it's not going to be an art +[4793.86 --> 4794.96] installation for that long +[4794.96 --> 4795.80] because it's just going to be a +[4795.80 --> 4796.04] dust. +[4796.10 --> 4797.00] And if I was going to have +[4797.00 --> 4798.38] something really that I thought +[4798.38 --> 4799.42] was beautiful and, +[4799.42 --> 4799.70] and, +[4799.70 --> 4800.74] and artsy, +[4800.80 --> 4802.16] I would probably go for a desk +[4802.16 --> 4802.60] computer. +[4802.60 --> 4805.28] I'd go for a nice tempered glass top +[4805.28 --> 4808.24] desk computer with filtered intakes. +[4808.56 --> 4811.02] And it's pretty aggressive to be a +[4811.02 --> 4812.06] fancy artsy. +[4813.18 --> 4813.84] Do you know what I mean? +[4813.90 --> 4815.08] And then my other issue is that +[4815.08 --> 4816.12] there's nothing that really matches +[4816.12 --> 4816.38] it. +[4816.82 --> 4817.12] Yeah. +[4817.28 --> 4818.82] So the tower looks like what it +[4818.82 --> 4819.42] looks like. +[4819.42 --> 4820.40] And then the only way to have +[4820.40 --> 4821.92] something kind of similar looking, +[4822.08 --> 4822.36] I mean, +[4822.36 --> 4824.50] I guess you could go Corsair +[4824.50 --> 4826.56] mechanical keyboard, +[4827.16 --> 4828.04] the black and yeah, +[4828.06 --> 4829.48] with a black aluminum backing, +[4829.66 --> 4830.42] you could go, +[4830.58 --> 4830.78] uh, +[4830.78 --> 4831.32] you could go, +[4831.42 --> 4831.80] I don't know, +[4831.92 --> 4833.58] thermal take BMW mouse. +[4834.48 --> 4834.92] Um, +[4835.22 --> 4836.64] it's totally uncomfortable and way +[4836.64 --> 4837.06] too heavy, +[4837.06 --> 4838.12] but like if you wanted something +[4838.12 --> 4839.10] that looked kind of edgy, +[4839.10 --> 4839.76] this is very, +[4840.26 --> 4840.54] the, +[4840.58 --> 4842.46] the BMW must have circles cut into +[4842.46 --> 4842.60] it. +[4842.68 --> 4843.12] That's true. +[4843.20 --> 4844.32] This is very straight lines. +[4844.48 --> 4844.72] Edgy. +[4844.80 --> 4845.56] Almost again, +[4845.60 --> 4847.14] actually the Corsair mouse. +[4847.28 --> 4847.50] Yeah. +[4847.50 --> 4849.56] You could go with like an M 65 or +[4849.56 --> 4849.82] whatever, +[4850.00 --> 4850.78] which is a laser mouse. +[4850.78 --> 4853.04] Unfortunately I'm more cut. +[4853.16 --> 4855.04] I'm pushing them to do an optical +[4855.04 --> 4856.58] like RGB mouse. +[4856.68 --> 4857.68] That's what I'd like to see. +[4857.78 --> 4860.40] Like a lower end sensor, +[4860.76 --> 4861.54] optical sensor, +[4861.54 --> 4864.00] but with high end features like +[4864.00 --> 4865.18] RGB and all that kind of crap. +[4865.50 --> 4865.88] All right. +[4865.88 --> 4868.02] So most of you are saying, +[4868.14 --> 4868.40] uh, +[4868.40 --> 4869.64] although it's actually very close +[4869.64 --> 4870.92] between slick and hot. +[4870.96 --> 4872.06] So most of you, +[4872.10 --> 4873.64] which obviously means that those +[4873.64 --> 4874.12] go together. +[4874.40 --> 4874.70] Yeah. +[4874.80 --> 4875.24] No, +[4875.24 --> 4876.04] not no. +[4876.12 --> 4877.36] It means that those are bitter +[4877.36 --> 4879.38] enemies because they're competing +[4879.38 --> 4880.36] against each other. +[4880.36 --> 4880.58] No, +[4880.58 --> 4880.74] see, +[4880.80 --> 4882.48] we're grouping up in one and two. +[4882.62 --> 4883.64] We're beating up on not. +[4884.50 --> 4886.78] That's really not how voting works, +[4887.30 --> 4887.78] actually. +[4888.64 --> 4888.84] Um, +[4888.84 --> 4889.32] so anyway, +[4889.72 --> 4890.04] um, +[4890.08 --> 4890.62] so most, +[4890.70 --> 4891.84] most of you are, +[4891.92 --> 4892.02] no. +[4892.42 --> 4892.70] Uh, +[4892.70 --> 4894.26] so most of you are saying slick +[4894.26 --> 4896.12] with the rest of you saying +[4896.12 --> 4896.94] either hot or not. +[4896.96 --> 4897.20] And about, +[4897.28 --> 4898.38] it's about a two to one ratio +[4898.38 --> 4900.44] between hot and not for the +[4900.44 --> 4901.16] in win case. +[4901.16 --> 4902.58] One thing that's going to be a +[4902.58 --> 4903.72] problem is it's going to be +[4903.72 --> 4904.04] expensive. +[4904.16 --> 4904.40] Yeah, +[4904.46 --> 4905.12] it's going to be extremely +[4905.12 --> 4905.36] expensive. +[4905.38 --> 4905.88] It's going to be really +[4905.88 --> 4906.16] expensive. +[4906.34 --> 4906.46] The, +[4906.46 --> 4907.64] the site that's estimated how +[4907.64 --> 4908.76] expensive it's going to be is +[4908.76 --> 4910.54] known for being totally not +[4910.54 --> 4910.84] right, +[4911.26 --> 4912.18] but it's still going to be really +[4912.18 --> 4912.52] expensive. +[4913.30 --> 4913.78] All right. +[4913.82 --> 4915.44] So we've got a few more rapid +[4915.44 --> 4916.58] fire topics here. +[4916.58 --> 4918.34] So there's a police dog that was +[4918.34 --> 4919.98] trained to sniff out hard drives +[4919.98 --> 4921.24] and memory cards. +[4921.38 --> 4922.62] This was originally posted by +[4922.62 --> 4924.04] Johnners on the forum and it's a +[4924.04 --> 4924.62] Hexas article. +[4924.62 --> 4925.58] I got kind of a kick out of +[4925.58 --> 4925.84] this. +[4926.26 --> 4927.68] So this is Thoreau. +[4929.50 --> 4929.94] And, +[4930.04 --> 4930.30] uh, +[4930.30 --> 4932.38] the idea is to find technological +[4932.38 --> 4932.82] jag, +[4932.92 --> 4933.16] jag, +[4933.22 --> 4933.48] jag, +[4933.48 --> 4933.72] jaggits, +[4934.28 --> 4936.40] gadgets that could contain child +[4936.40 --> 4936.94] pornography. +[4937.26 --> 4938.52] So they want to find, +[4938.52 --> 4938.82] uh, +[4938.82 --> 4939.98] child porn traffickers. +[4940.14 --> 4941.32] Is there a specific smell to +[4941.32 --> 4942.26] child pornography? +[4942.42 --> 4942.58] No, +[4942.64 --> 4943.70] but there's a specific smell +[4943.70 --> 4945.14] apparently to these electronics. +[4945.14 --> 4946.86] And I think that's pretty darn +[4946.86 --> 4947.24] cool. +[4947.54 --> 4948.12] You know, +[4948.18 --> 4949.88] dogs continue to be amazing. +[4950.04 --> 4951.40] Although I'm not stoked for like +[4951.40 --> 4953.80] every single piece of electronics +[4953.80 --> 4955.78] I have being individually searched +[4955.78 --> 4956.96] through every single file when I +[4956.96 --> 4957.54] go through the airport. +[4958.50 --> 4958.78] Well, +[4959.02 --> 4959.42] okay. +[4959.62 --> 4959.92] Yeah. +[4960.58 --> 4962.04] Desktop sales are apparently no +[4962.04 --> 4962.88] longer in decline. +[4963.00 --> 4964.12] This was bound to happen eventually +[4964.12 --> 4966.26] because the desktop is not dead. +[4967.08 --> 4968.54] And it's just not most keyboard +[4968.54 --> 4971.38] monitor usage experience is not +[4971.38 --> 4971.82] dead. +[4971.90 --> 4972.26] It's just, +[4972.34 --> 4973.50] they're not getting as fast anymore. +[4973.62 --> 4975.16] And what he just said, +[4975.48 --> 4977.54] they are so much more reliable now +[4977.54 --> 4978.26] than they used to be. +[4978.34 --> 4978.54] I mean, +[4979.10 --> 4980.42] it used to be, +[4980.54 --> 4982.48] you didn't even get solid state caps +[4982.48 --> 4983.74] on a server grade motherboard. +[4984.00 --> 4984.10] Yeah. +[4984.12 --> 4984.76] You were still getting +[4984.76 --> 4985.56] electrolytic caps. +[4985.58 --> 4986.84] And look at how many successful +[4986.84 --> 4987.98] first boots you have now +[4987.98 --> 4988.64] compared to before. +[4988.92 --> 4989.56] The huge, +[4989.66 --> 4991.26] very important rule used to be +[4991.26 --> 4992.30] make sure that you +[4992.30 --> 4993.70] don't put the side panel +[4993.70 --> 4994.16] on your computer. +[4994.26 --> 4996.20] Bad luck to screw in the side panel +[4996.20 --> 4997.10] the first time you put it +[4997.10 --> 4997.56] on your PC. +[4997.82 --> 4998.62] And now it like just doesn't matter. +[4998.70 --> 4999.66] Everything just doesn't work. +[4999.66 --> 4999.76] Because it'll work. +[5000.24 --> 5000.52] Yeah. +[5000.98 --> 5001.46] So anyway, +[5001.46 --> 5003.22] they are no longer declining +[5003.22 --> 5004.40] according to Gartner. +[5004.60 --> 5005.80] And I believe there was +[5005.80 --> 5007.40] one other analyst firm +[5007.40 --> 5008.56] that was saying that +[5008.56 --> 5010.02] they aren't declining. +[5010.18 --> 5011.40] Although they didn't quite agree +[5011.40 --> 5013.62] on exactly how much +[5013.62 --> 5013.96] and all this stuff. +[5013.96 --> 5015.02] How much it's not declining. +[5015.10 --> 5015.82] But it's like a very, +[5015.90 --> 5016.06] very, +[5016.14 --> 5016.36] very, +[5016.36 --> 5016.72] very, +[5016.72 --> 5017.96] very minor decline. +[5018.12 --> 5018.30] Yeah. +[5018.54 --> 5018.82] I mean, +[5018.90 --> 5021.20] I hope that this is good news +[5021.20 --> 5023.18] for the PC industry in general. +[5023.32 --> 5025.04] Not just for the desktop PC +[5025.04 --> 5025.74] because I don't think +[5025.74 --> 5026.58] it was going anywhere. +[5026.58 --> 5027.18] I never thought +[5027.18 --> 5028.12] it was going anywhere anyway. +[5028.54 --> 5030.08] But I hope this is good news +[5030.08 --> 5030.80] for the health +[5030.80 --> 5031.80] of the PC industry. +[5032.34 --> 5032.50] Now, +[5032.66 --> 5033.96] once things have leveled out +[5033.96 --> 5035.12] and it's not this +[5035.12 --> 5036.52] market share grab +[5036.52 --> 5037.36] and race to zero, +[5037.60 --> 5038.82] I hope we see +[5038.82 --> 5040.22] more expensive products. +[5040.32 --> 5041.02] And hold on a second. +[5041.44 --> 5042.96] I'm not asking for gouging, +[5043.04 --> 5043.90] but what I'm asking for +[5043.90 --> 5044.62] is higher quality. +[5044.96 --> 5045.84] Premier products. +[5045.98 --> 5046.12] Yes. +[5046.24 --> 5048.66] I'm asking for companies +[5048.66 --> 5050.02] to see the opportunity +[5050.02 --> 5051.50] that someone like Apple +[5051.50 --> 5052.06] has seen +[5052.06 --> 5053.92] to deliver premium products +[5053.92 --> 5055.08] that are just +[5055.08 --> 5056.20] legitimately better +[5056.20 --> 5056.86] than the other ones +[5056.86 --> 5057.38] that are out there. +[5057.44 --> 5058.42] I think the Blade 14 +[5058.42 --> 5059.70] is a fantastic example +[5059.70 --> 5060.22] of this. +[5061.68 --> 5062.12] Funny, +[5062.26 --> 5062.58] funny thing. +[5062.58 --> 5063.46] As much as I appreciate +[5063.46 --> 5064.98] you guys posting +[5064.98 --> 5066.18] all over Razor's +[5066.18 --> 5067.56] Twitter and Facebook +[5067.56 --> 5068.16] and everything, +[5068.52 --> 5069.50] I don't legitimately +[5069.50 --> 5070.28] need Razor +[5070.28 --> 5071.28] to give me a Blade 14. +[5071.40 --> 5071.88] It's fine. +[5071.98 --> 5073.34] I would love to have one, +[5073.76 --> 5075.02] but Razor's policy +[5075.02 --> 5075.74] with systems +[5075.74 --> 5077.04] is that they don't +[5077.04 --> 5078.28] give out review units +[5078.28 --> 5079.38] and that's fine. +[5080.24 --> 5081.68] So it is what it is +[5081.68 --> 5083.56] and I don't need it +[5083.56 --> 5084.14] that badly. +[5084.38 --> 5085.06] If I did, +[5085.66 --> 5086.64] I could probably +[5086.64 --> 5087.70] save my pennies. +[5087.88 --> 5089.18] It would be for quite a while +[5089.18 --> 5090.44] and I could probably +[5090.44 --> 5091.04] buy one, +[5091.12 --> 5091.72] but it's just +[5091.72 --> 5093.10] outside of my price range +[5093.10 --> 5094.16] and that's okay. +[5094.44 --> 5095.62] I have an excellent laptop +[5095.62 --> 5096.74] that I'm very happy with +[5096.74 --> 5097.32] and I'll continue +[5097.32 --> 5098.14] to use this +[5098.14 --> 5099.54] until it dies, +[5099.76 --> 5100.96] which it might be dying. +[5101.10 --> 5102.02] Since the water incident, +[5102.14 --> 5102.58] I've been getting +[5102.58 --> 5103.38] some blue screens, +[5103.60 --> 5104.72] so... +[5104.72 --> 5107.66] It works for now, +[5107.76 --> 5108.00] though, +[5108.12 --> 5109.14] and something can sit +[5109.14 --> 5109.64] blue screening +[5109.64 --> 5110.54] for a long time +[5110.54 --> 5111.02] before it actually +[5111.02 --> 5111.60] decides to die. +[5111.70 --> 5111.96] Well, yeah, +[5112.00 --> 5113.30] but I don't like losing work +[5113.30 --> 5114.98] because I do a lot of work +[5114.98 --> 5115.64] on this laptop. +[5116.02 --> 5116.60] You have auto-saving +[5116.60 --> 5117.16] through Word? +[5117.38 --> 5118.06] That shouldn't be that big. +[5118.06 --> 5118.42] Yeah, +[5118.64 --> 5119.68] but it's a pain in the butt +[5119.68 --> 5120.26] because, like, +[5120.28 --> 5121.00] you know how I manage +[5121.00 --> 5121.92] my browser tabs +[5121.92 --> 5122.68] and sometimes it doesn't +[5122.68 --> 5123.48] remember my session +[5123.48 --> 5124.32] and so... +[5124.32 --> 5125.34] You know what's super annoying? +[5125.66 --> 5126.70] Sorry to interject here, +[5126.78 --> 5127.74] but in terms of +[5127.74 --> 5128.52] remembering session, +[5129.00 --> 5131.32] when you close your browser +[5131.32 --> 5132.12] and, like, +[5132.36 --> 5133.20] something updates +[5133.20 --> 5135.08] and forces a browser open, +[5135.54 --> 5136.26] like Flash, +[5136.32 --> 5136.68] it'll be like, +[5136.74 --> 5137.64] thank you for installing, +[5137.80 --> 5138.02] whatever, +[5138.42 --> 5140.40] and then your restore session +[5140.40 --> 5142.00] is now that freaking page? +[5142.08 --> 5142.32] Yeah. +[5142.32 --> 5144.20] Oh my god. +[5144.80 --> 5145.84] Screw off. +[5146.16 --> 5147.32] I've lost so many +[5147.32 --> 5148.60] important things that way. +[5148.98 --> 5149.38] I'm just like, +[5149.48 --> 5149.88] damn it, +[5149.88 --> 5150.62] I can't go into history +[5150.62 --> 5151.50] for this because I opened it, +[5151.64 --> 5151.68] like, +[5151.84 --> 5152.62] four days ago. +[5153.38 --> 5154.36] Oh my god. +[5155.16 --> 5155.46] Yeah. +[5155.62 --> 5156.62] You only keep a couple days +[5156.62 --> 5157.02] of history? +[5158.30 --> 5159.12] No, it's just, like, +[5159.12 --> 5159.84] I don't remember exactly +[5159.84 --> 5160.24] what it's called. +[5160.88 --> 5161.60] Like, I don't remember +[5161.60 --> 5162.68] exactly what was important. +[5162.90 --> 5163.24] I just remember +[5163.24 --> 5164.28] there was important things +[5164.28 --> 5165.44] and going through +[5165.44 --> 5166.42] all that history +[5166.42 --> 5167.02] would be ridiculous. +[5167.50 --> 5168.40] Alright, we've got a couple +[5168.40 --> 5169.80] more rapid-fire topics here. +[5169.80 --> 5171.26] So Uber Hamburger +[5171.26 --> 5172.82] has posted this +[5172.82 --> 5174.80] VR room technology +[5174.80 --> 5175.48] that you guys should +[5175.48 --> 5176.44] probably check out +[5176.44 --> 5177.08] the video for. +[5177.16 --> 5178.14] It's pretty friggin' cool. +[5178.38 --> 5178.96] This is definitely +[5178.96 --> 5179.66] one of those things +[5179.66 --> 5180.16] where it's like, +[5180.24 --> 5181.60] yeah, version much higher +[5181.60 --> 5182.12] than this. +[5182.22 --> 5182.56] Yeah. +[5183.32 --> 5184.30] Needs to be a thing. +[5184.42 --> 5184.62] Yeah. +[5184.78 --> 5186.02] But they've got a great preview +[5186.02 --> 5187.00] here at the very beginning +[5187.00 --> 5188.46] where the guy's walking +[5188.46 --> 5189.20] around in a room, +[5189.28 --> 5190.46] like a projected room, +[5190.84 --> 5192.02] so you can see the flickering +[5192.02 --> 5193.06] that the camera's picking up. +[5193.12 --> 5193.96] But it's 3D, +[5194.08 --> 5195.06] so he's wearing 3D glasses +[5195.06 --> 5196.76] and then he's got tracking points +[5196.76 --> 5198.18] on this device he's holding +[5198.18 --> 5199.06] as well as the glasses +[5199.06 --> 5200.56] that allow him +[5200.56 --> 5201.64] to walk around +[5201.64 --> 5202.66] the virtual room +[5202.66 --> 5203.14] and like, +[5203.50 --> 5204.64] look under things +[5204.64 --> 5206.44] and walk around things, +[5206.48 --> 5207.06] sort of. +[5207.14 --> 5207.42] I mean, +[5207.84 --> 5208.90] if you walk into the +[5208.90 --> 5210.58] wall with the projection +[5210.58 --> 5211.68] on it, +[5211.76 --> 5212.62] then that's a problem. +[5212.62 --> 5213.18] But then you can, +[5213.42 --> 5214.26] yeah, he's seeing +[5214.26 --> 5215.20] through the glasses, +[5215.38 --> 5216.14] so he can actually see +[5216.14 --> 5216.80] if he's going to walk +[5216.80 --> 5217.56] into the wall or not. +[5217.56 --> 5220.24] He's saying that it's so immersive +[5220.24 --> 5222.60] that they've actually had problems +[5222.60 --> 5224.46] with people coming into the room, +[5225.06 --> 5225.90] walking around in it +[5225.90 --> 5226.66] for a few minutes +[5226.66 --> 5228.02] and then not being able +[5228.02 --> 5228.62] to figure out +[5228.62 --> 5229.38] where the exit is. +[5230.20 --> 5232.02] So their system for this +[5232.02 --> 5233.16] is that when you touch +[5233.16 --> 5234.24] each of the walls, +[5234.66 --> 5235.82] the one with the exit door +[5235.82 --> 5236.56] makes a noise +[5236.56 --> 5238.22] so that you can go find the door +[5238.22 --> 5238.82] because otherwise, +[5239.10 --> 5240.98] people just get completely disoriented. +[5240.98 --> 5241.60] That's pretty cool. +[5242.04 --> 5243.26] And they're completely +[5243.26 --> 5243.96] immersed in it. +[5244.16 --> 5244.58] That's cool. +[5244.70 --> 5245.62] And then the last topic +[5245.62 --> 5246.58] that I have today +[5246.58 --> 5249.24] is there's a Watch Dogs mod. +[5250.22 --> 5250.80] I was worried +[5250.80 --> 5251.30] you were going to go +[5251.30 --> 5251.84] to this one. +[5252.74 --> 5253.20] Oh, actually, +[5253.26 --> 5253.92] I guess there's one. +[5254.04 --> 5255.12] Verizon claims Netflix +[5255.12 --> 5255.98] is the one causing +[5255.98 --> 5256.86] internet congestion. +[5258.00 --> 5258.88] But apparently they actually +[5258.88 --> 5260.38] have like really solid data. +[5260.82 --> 5261.22] Yeah. +[5261.80 --> 5262.80] So where they're legitimately +[5262.80 --> 5264.18] trying to make the ISPs +[5264.18 --> 5265.40] look bad by choosing +[5265.40 --> 5266.26] crappy routes. +[5266.52 --> 5266.76] Yeah. +[5267.16 --> 5268.02] That's not good. +[5268.18 --> 5269.46] That's sort of terrible. +[5269.72 --> 5270.58] Like Verizon sucks, +[5270.74 --> 5271.58] but that's still not good. +[5271.60 --> 5271.90] Yeah. +[5272.26 --> 5273.56] So there you go. +[5275.54 --> 5276.90] Too hot for TV. +[5277.22 --> 5277.96] You're going to not want +[5277.96 --> 5278.60] that to go. +[5278.70 --> 5279.10] Yeah, I know. +[5279.20 --> 5279.42] I know. +[5279.56 --> 5279.72] I know. +[5279.76 --> 5279.94] I know. +[5280.02 --> 5280.84] So basically, +[5281.18 --> 5281.60] there you go. +[5281.70 --> 5283.10] That's Aiden Pierce +[5283.10 --> 5284.96] with this particular +[5284.96 --> 5285.84] Watch Dogs mod. +[5288.36 --> 5289.30] That makes sense. +[5289.38 --> 5290.26] And he paused it +[5290.26 --> 5291.84] at the exact right second. +[5292.74 --> 5293.42] Good work. +[5293.56 --> 5293.74] Yep. +[5293.86 --> 5294.58] That was about to get +[5294.58 --> 5296.88] a lot less safe for work +[5296.88 --> 5298.74] than it was right there. +[5299.34 --> 5299.74] So, +[5299.74 --> 5302.50] that's pretty much it. +[5303.14 --> 5303.40] Oh, +[5303.52 --> 5303.84] no. +[5304.04 --> 5305.06] I have one more thing. +[5305.42 --> 5306.80] So you guys still have +[5306.80 --> 5307.78] a little bit more time, +[5308.24 --> 5309.90] but I'm amazed +[5309.90 --> 5310.92] at what the response +[5310.92 --> 5311.92] has been to this. +[5312.54 --> 5313.86] We have a campaign +[5313.86 --> 5315.10] going on Teespring +[5315.10 --> 5315.66] right now +[5315.66 --> 5317.48] to get your commemorative +[5317.48 --> 5318.70] Highlander shirts. +[5318.70 --> 5321.14] And 130 of you so far +[5321.14 --> 5323.22] have bought Highlander +[5323.22 --> 5323.82] commemorative +[5323.82 --> 5325.26] either American Apparel +[5325.26 --> 5326.60] Crew neck shirts, +[5327.28 --> 5328.32] Gildan Heavy Blend +[5328.32 --> 5328.68] hoodies, +[5328.92 --> 5330.54] or Gildan Long Sleeves. +[5330.98 --> 5332.00] So these are the +[5332.00 --> 5333.02] three different options +[5333.02 --> 5333.42] available. +[5333.80 --> 5334.78] I'm personally +[5334.78 --> 5336.14] maybe going to get +[5336.14 --> 5336.40] a hoodie. +[5336.48 --> 5337.20] I already have a shirt +[5337.20 --> 5337.92] because I actually +[5337.92 --> 5338.42] attended. +[5338.74 --> 5339.78] So I already have +[5339.78 --> 5341.02] this exact shirt. +[5341.02 --> 5341.98] But yeah, +[5342.06 --> 5342.80] if you guys want one, +[5342.88 --> 5343.42] check that out. +[5343.54 --> 5343.82] Also, +[5343.92 --> 5344.40] Tech Syndicate +[5344.40 --> 5345.16] has their own +[5345.16 --> 5346.42] commemorative Highlander shirts. +[5346.74 --> 5347.42] So theirs are a little +[5347.42 --> 5347.88] bit different. +[5348.02 --> 5348.74] They're monochrome. +[5348.96 --> 5349.48] And then they have +[5349.48 --> 5349.92] the logos +[5349.92 --> 5350.64] and the names +[5350.64 --> 5351.46] of the YouTube channels +[5351.46 --> 5352.16] on the back. +[5352.52 --> 5352.98] And I think +[5352.98 --> 5353.90] I saw a tweet +[5353.90 --> 5354.42] from Jimmy +[5354.42 --> 5355.26] a little while ago. +[5355.70 --> 5356.50] I don't know +[5356.50 --> 5357.90] exactly what's going +[5357.90 --> 5358.34] on with that. +[5358.40 --> 5358.88] But I think it's +[5358.88 --> 5359.56] available soon +[5359.56 --> 5360.34] if it isn't already. +[5361.04 --> 5363.30] So it doesn't really +[5363.30 --> 5364.34] matter who you buy it +[5364.34 --> 5364.52] from. +[5364.62 --> 5365.40] The point is just +[5365.40 --> 5366.34] I think they wanted +[5366.34 --> 5367.10] some tweaks made +[5367.10 --> 5367.80] to the design. +[5368.04 --> 5368.68] So they wanted to +[5368.68 --> 5369.18] put some stuff +[5369.18 --> 5369.80] on the back. +[5369.92 --> 5370.64] And then we wanted +[5370.64 --> 5371.58] to offer not just +[5371.58 --> 5372.46] t-shirts but a couple +[5372.46 --> 5373.42] of different styles. +[5373.80 --> 5374.88] So we kind of did +[5374.88 --> 5375.82] our own thing with it +[5375.82 --> 5376.56] and you can buy +[5376.56 --> 5377.02] whatever you think +[5377.02 --> 5377.40] is cool. +[5378.10 --> 5378.80] Or not. +[5379.10 --> 5380.14] Or just don't at all. +[5380.20 --> 5381.00] That's fine too. +[5381.16 --> 5381.88] Also okay. +[5382.20 --> 5383.08] Yeah, also okay. +[5383.08 --> 5383.66] I'm going to get one +[5383.66 --> 5384.68] for my whole family +[5384.68 --> 5385.38] and probably buy +[5385.38 --> 5386.12] a sweater for myself. +[5387.02 --> 5388.04] So that's me. +[5388.46 --> 5389.00] But you know. +[5389.08 --> 5389.50] Oh yeah, it's +[5389.50 --> 5390.24] teespring.com +[5390.24 --> 5391.40] slash Highlander lan. +[5392.36 --> 5392.76] Yeah. +[5392.90 --> 5393.70] And if you just +[5393.70 --> 5394.66] go to teespring.com +[5394.66 --> 5395.08] you can click +[5395.08 --> 5396.00] search custom apparel +[5396.00 --> 5396.50] and if you type +[5396.50 --> 5397.04] in Highlander +[5397.04 --> 5397.60] it just comes up. +[5397.98 --> 5398.24] Cool. +[5398.36 --> 5398.84] So that also +[5398.84 --> 5399.58] works totally fine. +[5399.80 --> 5400.40] Teespring's actually +[5400.40 --> 5400.90] kind of cool. +[5400.98 --> 5401.32] It's different. +[5401.42 --> 5402.04] We normally use +[5402.04 --> 5402.62] district lines +[5402.62 --> 5403.02] and the way +[5403.02 --> 5403.76] Teespring works +[5403.76 --> 5404.62] is you don't actually +[5404.62 --> 5405.28] have to pre-buy +[5405.28 --> 5405.80] your inventory +[5405.80 --> 5406.36] like we do +[5406.36 --> 5407.10] with district lines +[5407.10 --> 5408.26] where we pre-print +[5408.26 --> 5408.80] shirts and then +[5408.80 --> 5409.62] we put them on a shelf. +[5409.98 --> 5411.06] Whereas with Teespring +[5411.06 --> 5412.00] you do campaigns +[5412.00 --> 5412.58] like this +[5412.58 --> 5413.16] where it's like +[5413.16 --> 5414.26] okay we need a goal +[5414.26 --> 5414.98] of 150 +[5414.98 --> 5416.48] and then our pricing +[5416.48 --> 5417.20] from Teespring +[5417.20 --> 5418.08] is based on +[5418.08 --> 5419.86] achieving that goal +[5419.86 --> 5420.62] and then they print +[5420.62 --> 5421.20] them all at once +[5421.20 --> 5421.68] and then ship them +[5421.68 --> 5422.02] all at once +[5422.02 --> 5422.46] and it's just all +[5422.46 --> 5423.14] one campaign. +[5423.46 --> 5424.22] I'll tell you guys +[5424.22 --> 5424.94] now the margin +[5424.94 --> 5425.78] is a lot lower +[5425.78 --> 5426.38] for us. +[5427.64 --> 5428.38] Like these are +[5428.38 --> 5430.20] costing multiple +[5430.20 --> 5431.64] dollars more +[5431.64 --> 5432.74] than the ones +[5432.74 --> 5433.50] that we have +[5433.50 --> 5436.28] on district lines +[5436.28 --> 5438.40] but it gives us +[5438.40 --> 5439.00] a little bit more +[5439.00 --> 5439.98] flexibility in certain +[5439.98 --> 5440.22] ways. +[5440.36 --> 5441.06] Like we can embed +[5441.06 --> 5441.84] Teespring links +[5441.84 --> 5442.86] within our videos. +[5444.00 --> 5444.44] I don't know. +[5444.66 --> 5445.02] Like it's +[5445.02 --> 5445.44] I don't know. +[5445.52 --> 5445.96] It's American +[5445.96 --> 5446.92] Imperial instead +[5446.92 --> 5447.60] of next level. +[5448.00 --> 5448.64] No American +[5448.64 --> 5449.30] we're doing American +[5449.30 --> 5450.00] Imperial on district +[5450.00 --> 5450.52] lines as well. +[5450.96 --> 5452.26] So I don't know. +[5452.84 --> 5454.08] It doesn't allow us +[5454.08 --> 5455.36] to offer shirts +[5455.36 --> 5455.96] on an ongoing +[5455.96 --> 5456.98] basis as easily. +[5457.24 --> 5458.12] Like on district +[5458.12 --> 5458.74] lines it's really +[5458.74 --> 5459.46] easy for us to +[5459.46 --> 5460.40] just keep when +[5460.40 --> 5461.24] show stealth in stock +[5461.24 --> 5461.84] because that one +[5461.84 --> 5462.54] just consistently +[5462.54 --> 5464.06] sells like one a +[5464.06 --> 5464.92] day or two a day +[5464.92 --> 5465.96] and people just +[5465.96 --> 5466.64] like it. +[5467.38 --> 5468.22] Whereas this is +[5468.22 --> 5469.04] very campaign based +[5469.04 --> 5469.42] it's like hey +[5469.42 --> 5470.08] we did this event +[5470.08 --> 5470.70] here's a commemorative +[5470.70 --> 5471.24] shirt we're never +[5471.24 --> 5471.74] going to print this +[5471.74 --> 5472.04] again. +[5472.94 --> 5473.30] I don't know. +[5473.62 --> 5473.80] It's interesting. +[5473.80 --> 5474.28] Can we just use +[5474.28 --> 5474.60] both? +[5475.42 --> 5476.06] Yeah I think so. +[5476.16 --> 5476.46] I mean we don't +[5476.46 --> 5477.24] have an exclusivity +[5477.24 --> 5477.94] deal with anyone. +[5478.12 --> 5479.10] I'm just talking +[5479.10 --> 5480.14] about why we do +[5480.14 --> 5480.76] things the way we +[5480.76 --> 5481.10] do them. +[5481.76 --> 5482.92] In case people who +[5482.92 --> 5483.52] watch our show are +[5483.52 --> 5484.24] interested in the +[5484.24 --> 5484.28] things we do. +[5484.28 --> 5484.52] This could make +[5484.52 --> 5485.54] sense for stuff like +[5485.54 --> 5485.98] when we did +[5485.98 --> 5486.96] Resolution is a +[5486.96 --> 5487.16] Number. +[5487.54 --> 5487.80] Yeah. +[5488.06 --> 5488.64] And different +[5488.64 --> 5489.08] events like +[5489.08 --> 5489.40] Highlander. +[5489.40 --> 5490.06] I think Resolution +[5490.06 --> 5490.76] is a Number has +[5490.76 --> 5491.26] staying power. +[5491.62 --> 5492.20] I think people will +[5492.20 --> 5493.46] still think that's a +[5493.46 --> 5494.72] funny shirt down the +[5494.72 --> 5495.60] road or maybe not. +[5496.54 --> 5496.96] I don't know. +[5496.96 --> 5499.52] I always think I'm +[5499.52 --> 5500.96] funny though so maybe +[5500.96 --> 5502.26] I'm biased. +[5502.58 --> 5503.14] You didn't even make +[5503.14 --> 5503.58] that joke. +[5504.02 --> 5504.44] Which one? +[5504.64 --> 5505.32] Resolution is just +[5505.32 --> 5505.56] a number. +[5505.62 --> 5505.84] I know. +[5506.30 --> 5507.20] I just think my shirt +[5507.20 --> 5507.94] about it is funny. +[5508.16 --> 5508.36] Oh. +[5508.56 --> 5508.76] Yeah. +[5508.98 --> 5509.28] Okay. +[5510.40 --> 5511.10] That makes sense. +[5511.78 --> 5512.70] I think we still have +[5512.70 --> 5513.80] to do Now with 30% +[5513.80 --> 5514.34] more Gen. +[5514.34 --> 5518.14] If you make it look +[5518.14 --> 5519.42] like a retro ad. +[5519.66 --> 5519.96] Yeah. +[5520.12 --> 5520.34] Yeah. +[5520.48 --> 5520.90] Because that's +[5520.90 --> 5521.08] legit. +[5521.42 --> 5522.22] Anyway I think we're +[5522.22 --> 5522.56] done here. +[5522.62 --> 5523.18] Gaming PCs. +[5523.42 --> 5524.38] I am going to do a +[5524.38 --> 5525.40] garage sale today so +[5525.40 --> 5526.04] if you guys want to +[5526.04 --> 5526.68] stick around there's +[5526.68 --> 5527.68] going to be potentially +[5527.68 --> 5528.42] some cool stuff. +[5528.50 --> 5528.80] I don't know what +[5528.80 --> 5529.66] happened to it all so +[5529.66 --> 5530.14] I'll probably have to +[5530.14 --> 5530.90] go get it but. +[5531.44 --> 5532.06] It probably got +[5532.06 --> 5532.62] cleaned up. +[5532.84 --> 5533.00] Yeah. +[5533.14 --> 5533.36] Thanks. +[5533.46 --> 5533.74] Thanks for +[5533.74 --> 5534.32] watching The WAN Show +[5534.32 --> 5534.72] guys. +[5535.00 --> 5535.42] Peace out. +[5535.88 --> 5536.42] See you next week. +[5536.82 --> 5537.12] Yay. +[5537.22 --> 5537.50] Bye. +[5539.64 --> 5542.16] Oh it's broken. +[5542.38 --> 5542.80] Oh no. +[5542.90 --> 5543.24] There we go. +[5543.42 --> 5543.74] Yay. +[5544.34 --> 5544.92] We should just +[5544.92 --> 5545.80] have an outro one. +[5546.86 --> 5547.66] Yeah but then I +[5547.66 --> 5548.28] use up a scene. +[5548.42 --> 5549.08] I only have 12 +[5549.08 --> 5549.42] scenes. +[5549.84 --> 5550.28] X-flip. +[5552.38 --> 5553.02] They should have +[5553.02 --> 5553.58] more scenes. +[5556.22 --> 5556.82] I don't know. +[5557.16 --> 5558.02] Now with 30% +[5558.02 --> 5558.72] more scenes. +[5562.62 --> 5563.40] They should do +[5563.40 --> 5563.70] that. +[5563.80 --> 5564.16] X-flip. +[5565.74 --> 5566.48] Thanks again to +[5566.48 --> 5567.02] our

Not the most organized one that we've ever started. +[5.64 --> 10.14] I didn't even do my hair or change my shirt and you're like wearing a firefighter shirt, +[10.14 --> 13.44] which is of course the the best Linus Tech Tips shirt of all. +[13.44 --> 14.16] You're wearing a... +[14.16 --> 18.24] I know, I know. We both failed. We're both bad people. +[18.24 --> 18.76] Okay. +[18.76 --> 20.04] And this is a bad show. +[20.04 --> 21.54] As long as we're equally terrible. +[21.54 --> 23.58] I actually think it's a fantastic show. +[23.58 --> 26.28] It's a great show. We have tons of stuff for you guys this week. +[26.28 --> 30.36] We actually, we say that every week, but we do have a ton of stuff this week. +[30.36 --> 38.88] He was just at E3, which is the Adult Entertainment Expo. Adult? Adult? No? +[38.88 --> 40.00] Oh, oh. +[40.00 --> 43.68] Adult. I pretended to misunderstand and also not know how adult was spelled. +[43.68 --> 46.08] Which is funny because... +[46.08 --> 51.84] How was the trip? +[51.84 --> 54.84] It was, it was... Am I going through everything? +[54.84 --> 57.00] No. It's a long story. Yeah, no, I don't care. +[57.00 --> 64.12] It was actually pretty good. The most surprising thing was that E3 is like not a press-only event. +[64.12 --> 67.44] Like, nope, not at all. They have signs all over the place. +[67.44 --> 69.56] Like, oh, press-only event, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[69.56 --> 74.72] And then the lineup for Will Call for people that bought their tickets was the longest one. +[74.72 --> 78.96] You know, it's funny because it's like CES where it's industry blah, blah, blah only. +[78.96 --> 82.80] And you walk around and like most of the people there are just off the street. +[82.80 --> 86.24] Yeah, but there was actually a considerable amount of people that just bought their ticket. +[86.24 --> 89.44] You know how at like CES you had to like at least be friends with someone? +[89.44 --> 90.24] Yeah. +[90.24 --> 93.12] It's like, no, you could just straight up buy your ticket and a lot of people did it. +[93.12 --> 96.72] Like there was some mom and her like 12 year old kid that were just walking around. +[96.72 --> 97.52] Like that was really expensive. +[97.52 --> 99.20] He's probably like a prodigy game dev. +[100.72 --> 108.40] Yeah. That was, it was, yeah, that was weird. And like at PAX East when we went to Oculus, +[108.40 --> 112.72] I was able to walk up and be like, hey, we're press. Can we get a, can we get something? +[112.72 --> 123.12] And they were like, well, we don't have any interview, um, like time slots open, but we can sit you down and run you through all the different demos and have a guy talk to you, but he just can't be on camera. +[123.12 --> 129.04] We're like, okay, cool. E3 walk up and they're like, no press stuff. Wait, wait in line. +[129.52 --> 134.56] It's like, this is a supposed to be a press only event and you have no press stuff. +[134.56 --> 139.44] So I had to wait in line multiple times because I couldn't even like hop systems to try all the different games and stuff. +[139.44 --> 146.00] But then it ended up being awesome because I was able to like find Palmer in the booth and be like, hey, can we get an interview? +[146.00 --> 149.04] So we ended up getting like one of the best interviews at E3. +[149.04 --> 150.08] That's fantastic. +[150.08 --> 152.48] For Oculus just randomly, which was great. +[152.48 --> 153.36] You guys have fun overall? +[153.36 --> 157.04] It was good. There was, there was stuff that we don't have time to talk about, which was insane. +[157.04 --> 158.88] Are you releasing the blog video of the hotel? +[159.60 --> 160.48] I don't know. +[161.68 --> 165.28] It's, it's, we're, we're not sure, but I have footage and I might show it off on the after party. +[165.28 --> 170.96] I get a kick out of all the people being like, there's no video because I actually have a preview of the stream running on my computer right now. +[170.96 --> 175.92] So if there is no video, then that's, yeah, I think it's on your side. +[175.92 --> 176.56] Yeah. +[176.56 --> 177.20] All right. +[177.20 --> 181.20] So why don't we jump right into our, our hot topics of the day? +[181.20 --> 184.32] So I've got two hot topics for you that are sort of related. +[184.32 --> 186.16] GTA 5 is coming to the PC. +[186.16 --> 192.00] And, um, Dead Rising 3 is coming to the PC. +[195.92 --> 209.36] I mean, that's, it's good that, that an exclusive franchise is moving to PC, but we, well, we have more to tell you later about why this is just the completest epic fail that, um, it, well, okay, it could have been worse. +[209.84 --> 211.36] I don't know how much worse it could be. +[211.36 --> 214.24] Okay. You go, you go ahead. You get some topics that we're going to talk about today. +[214.24 --> 220.32] Uh, next, next, next generation consoles are probably coming faster than we expected. +[220.64 --> 225.68] And that's not surprising because the current ones are really not that strong or good at all. +[225.68 --> 230.08] Instead of calling them next gen, can we be like shampoo and call them new and improved gen? +[230.88 --> 233.12] Next, new next gen console. +[233.12 --> 233.52] Yeah. +[233.52 --> 235.44] Like the, the, the, like the Nintendo thing. +[235.44 --> 238.72] And then the next one can be new and improved next gen. +[238.72 --> 242.88] And then after that, it can be like redesigned packaging, which they already do. +[242.88 --> 245.76] You know, we'll have like a modern warfare skin on the console or whatever. +[245.76 --> 246.00] Yeah. +[246.00 --> 249.44] Like these are just completely rip off shampoo. +[250.32 --> 251.20] Just do it that way. +[252.96 --> 254.16] New and enhanced formula. +[254.96 --> 258.32] Uh, and then we have the maglev keyboard because magnets, yo. +[258.88 --> 260.08] Magnets dog. +[260.08 --> 260.48] All right. +[260.48 --> 265.92] So without further ado, here is the, uh, the, okay, I'll just press it. +[265.92 --> 277.52] This is great. +[277.52 --> 280.16] Someone's like now with 30% more gen. +[282.56 --> 283.04] Yes. +[284.64 --> 285.52] Oh, I love it. +[288.72 --> 289.44] All right. +[289.44 --> 292.08] So our sponsors for the show today. +[292.08 --> 292.64] Yes. +[292.64 --> 294.80] Highlander is coming. +[294.80 --> 299.44] This will be the world's highest altitude terrestrial LAN party. +[299.44 --> 302.64] We are collaborating with Austin Evans. +[302.64 --> 308.72] We are collaborating with, uh, actually TLD today and tech of tomorrow are as far as I know, +[308.72 --> 309.92] a hundred percent coming. +[309.92 --> 312.40] Paul and Kyle from Newegg might be coming. +[312.40 --> 314.64] That's mostly confirmed as well. +[314.64 --> 319.36] Logan from tech syndicate and Linus tech tips are putting on this event and it is going to be +[319.36 --> 320.48] bananas. +[320.48 --> 325.92] Expect some great content to come out of this and it is powered by our generous, generous +[325.92 --> 330.56] sponsors, ASUS featuring their new ROJ, ROJ. +[330.56 --> 338.72] See, you got me going ROJZ, their new ROG series notebook as well as Intel and Corsair. +[338.72 --> 340.96] So this is going to be a lot of, a lot of fun. +[340.96 --> 346.08] Also, we, uh, we owe our E3 sponsors one more, uh, one more sponsor spot here. +[346.08 --> 349.28] So, um, actually, I mean, this is, the timing's not bad. +[349.28 --> 352.40] The next week thing isn't that great because it's not next week. +[352.40 --> 356.00] It was actually this week, but we're going to be doing a ton of E3 recap. +[356.00 --> 361.52] And I just want to thank our sponsors, HyperX, NCIX, and, ah, wow. +[361.52 --> 362.56] I'm blanking. +[362.56 --> 362.96] Thank you. +[362.96 --> 363.60] Corsair. +[363.60 --> 365.92] And Corsair for sending Luke there. +[365.92 --> 368.00] See, he's the one who's been saying that all week. +[368.00 --> 368.56] Yep. +[368.56 --> 373.04] Whereas I've been focused on Highlander and the fact that there's some overlap between +[373.04 --> 373.28] them. +[373.28 --> 374.40] Oh, yeah, that's a good point. +[374.40 --> 378.40] It's like, what am I doing? +[378.40 --> 379.36] Yeah, no, that was awesome. +[379.36 --> 384.88] We actually have a Nintendo recap video of like all of the games that are coming out in terms +[384.88 --> 385.68] of Wii U. +[385.68 --> 386.24] Uh, coming out in the 20 minutes. +[386.24 --> 388.00] Is Nintendo getting their mojo back? +[388.00 --> 389.52] Why don't we make that our first topic? +[389.52 --> 390.00] Let's go. +[390.00 --> 390.56] Go. +[390.56 --> 390.96] Go. +[390.96 --> 391.52] No, no, no. +[391.52 --> 393.52] E3 2014 was Nintendo's year. +[393.52 --> 394.00] Okay. +[394.00 --> 394.80] Like, 100%. +[394.80 --> 399.60] You walk into one of the halls, you see a gigantic Nintendo banner, you see completely +[399.60 --> 403.56] vacant booths, and then you see no walking space at all around the Nintendo area because +[403.56 --> 404.60] it's full. +[404.60 --> 406.52] The press area was completely full. +[406.52 --> 411.02] There was lineup queues to try every single, like, little station, and the non-press area +[411.02 --> 412.02] was even more full. +[412.02 --> 416.32] Uh, the, the Invitational stream was insane. +[416.32 --> 420.84] There was 100,000 people watching the Smash Bros Invitational before they started playing. +[420.84 --> 423.88] Like, people cared. +[423.88 --> 428.36] They had, they had Best Buys around the world had Smash Bros and people were able to go play, +[428.36 --> 432.02] and there was pictures of Best Buys where there was a lineup all the way around the Best +[432.02 --> 435.44] Buy and then down the street just to be able to play. +[435.44 --> 439.92] So, for all the doom and gloom around Nintendo, and they are still losing money. +[439.92 --> 440.92] Yep. +[440.92 --> 443.40] Are they at least recapturing their mojo? +[443.40 --> 444.64] I think they're recapturing their mojo. +[444.64 --> 447.20] They have, they have stuff like Smash Bros coming, which should have been here already. +[447.20 --> 447.88] They got Zelda coming. +[447.88 --> 450.40] They have that new Zelda announcement, which looks amazing. +[450.40 --> 451.72] And that should have been here already. +[451.72 --> 453.44] There's a lot of stuff that should have been here already. +[453.44 --> 456.44] Let's just make this the Nintendo, the Nintendo, uh, segment. +[456.44 --> 458.44] So, let's go through all of our Nintendo stuff. +[458.44 --> 459.44] So, so go ahead. +[459.44 --> 460.44] Sure, sure. +[460.44 --> 461.44] Give, give us your thoughts. +[461.44 --> 465.44] Then we'll jump into that, uh, Nintendo has already apparently, actually no. +[465.44 --> 466.44] We'll move on. +[466.44 --> 467.44] Okay, whatever. +[467.44 --> 468.44] Talk about Nintendo and then I'll jump in with other stuff. +[468.44 --> 472.76] They have, they have, I, in, in the video that's coming in like 18 minutes, they have, I think, +[472.76 --> 474.48] 11 different games. +[474.48 --> 479.08] Like, really big, very important, very well polished games that they could probably release +[479.08 --> 479.76] today. +[479.76 --> 481.48] Because they're all playable there. +[481.48 --> 482.48] Right. +[482.48 --> 484.48] And totally smooth, no problems, fully playable. +[484.48 --> 486.48] Um, that were just amazing. +[486.48 --> 491.48] And stuff, stuff from Yoshi, Toad, uh, Mario, like main Mario sequence games. +[491.48 --> 492.80] The Mario Maker game looks amazing. +[492.80 --> 494.80] And I got to play with it there and it was really good. +[494.80 --> 497.72] Um, Hyrule Warriors is polished and really fun. +[497.72 --> 499.96] Uh, the Zelda game looks amazing. +[499.96 --> 502.44] All of these big titles that probably should have come earlier. +[502.44 --> 504.80] Um, but I think it's gonna be okay. +[504.80 --> 507.88] I, the, the hype around Nintendo at E3 was insane. +[507.88 --> 511.92] Like, the PlayStation and Xbox stuff was fairly populated. +[511.92 --> 515.68] And stuff that you would expect to be populated, like Borderlands and like Far Cry. +[515.68 --> 516.68] Yeah. +[516.68 --> 517.68] That was a fairly large lineup. +[517.68 --> 524.32] But the lineup to play and get like hands-on interaction with Far Cry and Assassin's Creed +[524.32 --> 530.20] and like Borderlands, these big titles, were not as big and not as engaged as anything at +[530.20 --> 531.20] Nintendo. +[531.20 --> 535.60] Including like, I, I can't even remember what it's called right now, but some squid game +[535.60 --> 537.16] where you like run around and paint things. +[537.16 --> 538.60] But it was tons of fun! +[538.60 --> 539.60] Mmm. +[539.60 --> 542.04] It looked super stupid, but it's, it's called Turf War. +[542.04 --> 543.04] Yeah. +[543.04 --> 546.36] And you just run around with these paint guns and you have to like cover all the ground +[546.36 --> 548.20] in paint and it's an FPS at the same time. +[548.20 --> 551.54] So you're covering your ground in paint to gain points and whoever has the most ground +[551.54 --> 553.36] covered in their color of paint at the end wins. +[553.36 --> 557.28] But you can kill the other guys and then they get a respawn timer and they respawn in the +[557.28 --> 558.28] back of their base. +[558.28 --> 559.28] That sounds like a lot of fun. +[559.28 --> 563.00] It was actually, it was really competitive despite how like, kinda random it is. +[563.00 --> 564.00] Casual, filthy casual. +[564.00 --> 565.00] Yeah, yeah. +[565.00 --> 568.84] Totally filthy casual, but it was super competitive and there was, that was one of the most lined up +[568.84 --> 569.84] of the four games. +[569.84 --> 570.84] Splatoon. +[570.84 --> 571.84] That's what it was called. +[571.84 --> 572.84] Thanks Nick. +[572.84 --> 573.84] Yeah, thanks Nick. +[573.84 --> 574.84] It was called Splatoon. +[574.84 --> 579.32] But that was, that was actually so much fun and that I had never even heard of that before. +[579.32 --> 580.32] And that was, that was awesome. +[580.32 --> 581.32] So there's, I don't know. +[581.32 --> 582.32] I'm scared. +[582.32 --> 584.28] Okay, what's your, what's your highlight from Nintendo? +[584.28 --> 585.28] Oh, Smash Bros. +[585.28 --> 586.28] Smash Bros. +[586.28 --> 587.28] Smash Bros. +[587.28 --> 588.28] was amazing. +[588.28 --> 589.28] Smash Bros. +[589.28 --> 590.28] Okay. +[590.28 --> 591.28] And that's super boring. +[591.28 --> 592.28] But it was amazing. +[592.28 --> 594.88] Now, neither of the people in this room gives any cares about this because neither of us +[594.88 --> 597.28] ever owned a GameCube, did we? +[597.28 --> 601.68] No, but I got to play with both and I got to talk to multiple people that were in the +[601.68 --> 604.28] Smash Bros. Invitational about Smash Bros. +[604.28 --> 607.28] Um, so I have feedback on Smash Bros and the GameCube controller and stuff. +[607.28 --> 612.28] I asked the guy who won the Invitational who was playing with me, which was super cool. +[612.28 --> 613.28] That's cool. +[613.28 --> 614.28] Yeah, I won. +[614.28 --> 615.28] Shut up. +[615.28 --> 616.28] Yeah. +[616.28 --> 617.28] Did he let you win? +[617.28 --> 618.28] Was he a nice guy? +[618.28 --> 622.28] No, there was two guys from the Invitational and a like fairly high end on the competitive +[622.28 --> 625.28] side employee of Nintendo for Smash Bros. +[625.28 --> 626.28] And then me. +[626.28 --> 627.28] And we were all playing. +[627.28 --> 632.28] And the employee of Nintendo picked a super overpowered character and the two Invitational +[632.28 --> 635.28] guys were trying to fight him off because he had a super overpowered character. +[635.28 --> 636.28] And I was Kirby. +[636.28 --> 642.28] So I did that like you turn into a rock and smash thing and I got multiple kills that +[642.28 --> 645.28] way and then they weren't trying to focus me. +[645.28 --> 648.28] But because they were focusing someone else, I took advantage of it and won. +[648.28 --> 649.28] Nice. +[649.28 --> 650.28] Which is fantastic. +[650.28 --> 651.28] Nice. +[651.28 --> 653.28] But yeah, the GameCube controller and I got to try to... +[653.28 --> 655.28] Okay, you haven't actually told anyone what we're talking about. +[655.28 --> 660.28] So Nintendo is releasing a GameCube controller adapter for the Wii U that will allow you to plug +[660.28 --> 662.28] in four GameCube controllers. +[662.28 --> 663.28] I think... +[663.28 --> 664.28] Okay, couple of things. +[664.28 --> 669.28] Number one is why the hell hasn't everyone been doing this all along? +[669.28 --> 673.28] Why can't I use an Xbox 360 controller on the Xbox One if I like it better? +[673.28 --> 675.28] Microsoft, what's your problem? +[675.28 --> 680.28] Like what is the problem with carrying forward and back compatibility on controllers? +[680.28 --> 685.28] It's an artificially imposed limitation a lot of the time and it just doesn't make any sense. +[685.28 --> 686.28] And you know what? +[686.28 --> 693.28] Even though Nintendo legitimately, justifiably can't use GameCube controllers on the Wii U, +[693.28 --> 699.28] they are allowing it to happen, they are facilitating it, and they're making it reasonable. +[699.28 --> 700.28] 20 bucks. +[700.28 --> 701.28] 20 bucks. +[701.28 --> 702.28] 20 bucks. +[702.28 --> 703.28] 20 bucks. +[703.28 --> 704.28] It's really not even that bad. +[704.28 --> 709.28] I mean we're talking about the price delta between a current gen controller and a last +[709.28 --> 710.28] gen controller. +[710.28 --> 714.28] And you're getting the adapter to use as many last gen controllers as you want. +[714.28 --> 717.28] I mean that is such a customer friendly thing to do. +[717.28 --> 721.28] Just go look, yeah, okay, you don't like classic controller, you don't like pro controller, +[721.28 --> 725.28] you want to use what you're familiar with, what you like, yes, let's give it to you. +[725.28 --> 727.28] Why isn't everyone doing this? +[727.28 --> 732.28] Yeah, and you can even use like the old GameCube WaveBird wireless controllers, +[732.28 --> 733.28] that's compatible with the adapter. +[733.28 --> 737.28] So like, they're just like, yeah, no, it works, which is fantastic. +[737.28 --> 740.28] I talked to the competitive guys and I tried the GameCube controller again. +[740.28 --> 745.28] I never had a GameCube and that controller always felt weird, but playing Smash Bros with it felt right. +[745.28 --> 749.28] And people are pointing out the original Wii had it built in by default. +[749.28 --> 752.28] Yeah, you just down, you just pull down the flap and you can get it. +[752.28 --> 756.28] But I mean, you can't, you can't have it built in forever. +[756.28 --> 759.28] So I understand why they're doing it the way they're doing. +[759.28 --> 765.28] I just think that Microsoft and Sony could take a page out of this book where it's giving your customers the choice. +[765.28 --> 769.28] I mean, Nintendo has actually done a good job of that, even on the original Wii. +[769.28 --> 773.28] So you've got your Wiimote, you've got your classic controller, you've got your nunchuck and Wiimote combo, +[773.28 --> 777.28] you've got your GameCube controller, you can basically do things the way that you want. +[777.28 --> 778.28] And I think that's fantastic. +[778.28 --> 783.28] Yeah, but my main question for them was why not the Pro controller versus the GameCube controller? +[783.28 --> 784.28] And the feedback from the... +[784.28 --> 785.28] You mean for the players? +[785.28 --> 786.28] For the players, yes. +[786.28 --> 787.28] The feedback from the... +[787.28 --> 789.28] I'm helping you, I'm keeping you on track here. +[789.28 --> 796.28] The feedback from the very competitive guys was the layout of the GameCube controller is faster and more efficient, +[796.28 --> 798.28] and also the analog stick placement. +[798.28 --> 803.28] Like, this is still layout, but analog stick placement is a lot better for comboing buttons. +[803.28 --> 804.28] Mm-hmm. +[804.28 --> 807.28] And all of that totally makes sense and I kind of felt it while I was there. +[807.28 --> 808.28] Right. +[808.28 --> 809.28] Especially that little yellow stick. +[809.28 --> 810.28] Yeah. +[810.28 --> 811.28] You can click that and press a button really easily. +[811.28 --> 812.28] Right. +[812.28 --> 815.28] So I totally understand why you would want a GameCube controller. +[815.28 --> 816.28] And then they have... +[816.28 --> 820.28] If you don't have old GameCube controllers and you're worried about like local stores running +[820.28 --> 824.28] out, they're going to be releasing what, like a $30 Smash Bros GameCube controller? +[824.28 --> 825.28] Nice. +[825.28 --> 826.28] I believe that's what it is. +[826.28 --> 829.28] So you'll be able to buy new ones if that's the case, or if you want to make sure your +[829.28 --> 830.28] old ones are still fine, you can just buy a new one. +[830.28 --> 835.28] So for $150 bucks, you will be able to completely kit out your Wii U and GameCube controllers. +[835.28 --> 836.28] That's not bad. +[836.28 --> 837.28] That's... +[837.28 --> 838.28] That's really... +[838.28 --> 841.28] And if you're willing to buy controllers used, you can do it a lot cheaper than that. +[841.28 --> 842.28] Yep. +[842.28 --> 843.28] Yep. +[843.28 --> 844.28] Definitely. +[844.28 --> 845.28] You can get GameCube controllers pretty cheap. +[845.28 --> 846.28] Although, I would probably do that quickly. +[846.28 --> 847.28] Yeah, really. +[847.28 --> 849.28] Before everyone catches on to this. +[849.28 --> 850.28] Yeah. +[850.28 --> 851.28] Before... +[851.28 --> 853.28] Before GameCube controllers just start flying off shelves everywhere. +[853.28 --> 856.28] But yeah, that was a ton of fun. +[856.28 --> 857.28] What else was there? +[857.28 --> 859.28] I got to play Hyrule Warriors. +[859.28 --> 860.28] Yep. +[860.28 --> 861.28] And it was smooth. +[861.28 --> 864.28] I was never a huge fan of what is called Dynasty Warriors. +[864.28 --> 865.28] Never... +[865.28 --> 866.28] Well, okay. +[866.28 --> 868.28] I was never a huge fan because I never had it. +[868.28 --> 869.28] Right. +[869.28 --> 870.28] But like, it was fun. +[870.28 --> 871.28] It was fun to play. +[871.28 --> 874.28] It's an interesting new IP for them, but it does seem... +[874.28 --> 879.28] Even with very rarely playing Dynasty Warriors, I was like, yeah, I'm playing Dynasty Warriors. +[879.28 --> 880.28] But as Link. +[880.28 --> 881.28] Or Zelda. +[881.28 --> 882.28] Right. +[882.28 --> 883.28] Which is... +[883.28 --> 884.28] I don't know. +[884.28 --> 885.28] It was kind of fun. +[885.28 --> 886.28] Alright, let's talk about Mario Maker. +[886.28 --> 887.28] Okay. +[887.28 --> 892.28] So this was originally posted on the forum by TopWarGamer, so thank you for that. +[892.28 --> 893.28] But your thoughts on it. +[893.28 --> 895.28] You played around with it a little bit, right? +[895.28 --> 896.28] Yeah. +[896.28 --> 897.28] Really, really smooth and very fast. +[897.28 --> 898.28] Extremely fast. +[898.28 --> 899.28] Okay. +[899.28 --> 906.28] My concern with something like this is the same as my concern with any game that kind of goes, +[906.28 --> 909.28] Hey, we're giving you guys the reigns. +[909.28 --> 914.28] I like games that are designed by professional game designers. +[914.28 --> 918.28] Were they allowing people to create their own levels while you were there? +[918.28 --> 920.28] And were you able to play other people's levels? +[920.28 --> 921.28] Or what was the whole experience? +[921.28 --> 924.28] I got to play levels of two, again, two of the competitive guys. +[924.28 --> 926.28] I was kind of going around with them for a little while. +[926.28 --> 927.28] Sure. +[927.28 --> 930.28] And that was kind of fun because they were making absolutely ridiculous levels. +[930.28 --> 931.28] Right. +[931.28 --> 934.28] Like nigh impossible levels because they're competitive guys. +[934.28 --> 935.28] And that was kind of fun. +[935.28 --> 940.28] But even if something's ridiculous, you can jump into the editor at any point in time of +[940.28 --> 944.28] any level, even levels that come stocked with the game, and move your character. +[944.28 --> 949.28] So if you're like, this part's dumb, you can just be like, I'm now here, and keep going. +[949.28 --> 950.28] Which is actually kind of nice. +[950.28 --> 951.28] Huh. +[951.28 --> 954.28] Because one of the competitive guys accidentally made part of it impossible. +[954.28 --> 955.28] Right. +[955.28 --> 958.28] He didn't realize one of the things was going to jump onto a certain thing that it did. +[958.28 --> 959.28] Right. +[959.28 --> 962.28] So he was like, oh, okay, whatever, and just edit his character up onto the next point and +[962.28 --> 964.28] then kept going, which was actually kind of nice. +[964.28 --> 966.28] And you can also live edit anything. +[966.28 --> 969.28] So if you play one of the stock maps, you can live edit it. +[969.28 --> 972.28] So you can like add things to make it more difficult and change things. +[972.28 --> 978.28] And my biggest worry was actually something that you just brought up, other people's levels. +[978.28 --> 983.28] Right now they don't have it set up so that you can actually download off of a community. +[983.28 --> 989.28] But they were like, yeah, every single person pretty much who's played has suggested that. +[989.28 --> 990.28] Right. +[990.28 --> 993.28] So not saying anything's going to happen, but yeah. +[993.28 --> 998.28] And one thing that was fairly interesting about Nintendo is they had a slight indie feel +[998.28 --> 999.28] the whole time. +[999.28 --> 1003.28] Where when you go to a AAA place, it's just like game stations where you can play and PR +[1003.28 --> 1004.28] people. +[1004.28 --> 1005.28] Yeah. +[1005.28 --> 1007.28] They had the developers for a lot of the games walking the floor, talking to people. +[1007.28 --> 1008.28] That's really cool. +[1008.28 --> 1009.28] It was really cool. +[1009.28 --> 1014.28] Like the main guy behind Splatoon, every single time, was going around to every single person +[1014.28 --> 1016.28] that was playing and asking them what their thoughts were after the game. +[1016.28 --> 1019.28] And like with a notepad, legitimately writing things down. +[1019.28 --> 1020.28] That's fantastic. +[1020.28 --> 1026.28] I mean, that's something that really I find differentiates one company from another one. +[1026.28 --> 1031.28] I mean, we see the same thing at CES where there's certain companies, you go to their booth, +[1031.28 --> 1037.28] and it's like the president or like VP of worldwide marketing or whatever. +[1037.28 --> 1041.28] And typically it's smaller companies, but seeing big ones behave like that is really impressive. +[1041.28 --> 1042.28] And you see it sometimes. +[1042.28 --> 1045.28] It's not only Nintendo, but it was very nice to see it at Nintendo. +[1045.28 --> 1046.28] No, you do see it from time to time. +[1046.28 --> 1052.28] I mean, even at CES, we've met people like I met some senior director level. +[1052.28 --> 1056.28] I actually met the CEO of WD at a party last year. +[1056.28 --> 1060.28] Like you do run into these people, but it's usually really difficult. +[1060.28 --> 1062.28] And the fact that they were just there in the booth. +[1062.28 --> 1063.28] Was actually really cool. +[1063.28 --> 1065.28] And you'd never really know. +[1065.28 --> 1067.28] Like they weren't wearing shirts that were like, dev team. +[1067.28 --> 1070.28] Like they had Nintendo shirts, but they just kind of looked like average employees. +[1070.28 --> 1071.28] Right. +[1071.28 --> 1073.28] But if you recognized them, you could tell. +[1073.28 --> 1075.28] And a lot of people didn't. +[1075.28 --> 1076.28] So it was actually fine. +[1076.28 --> 1077.28] They could kind of move around freely. +[1077.28 --> 1080.28] But it was really cool to see them picking up all that feedback. +[1080.28 --> 1084.28] And even other employees, they were using as like proxies essentially. +[1084.28 --> 1085.28] So those other employees would ask questions. +[1085.28 --> 1087.28] And then I saw them, like they'd meet up. +[1087.28 --> 1088.28] Right. +[1088.28 --> 1089.28] And exchange notes and then keep going. +[1089.28 --> 1091.28] Like they were really hardcore about getting feedback from people. +[1091.28 --> 1092.28] Which is cool. +[1092.28 --> 1095.28] And apparently that's where the GameCube controller thing came from. +[1095.28 --> 1096.28] Right. +[1096.28 --> 1099.28] So many fans demanded a different input solution for Smash Bros when it came out. +[1099.28 --> 1102.28] But they were like, hey, we'll just make this $20 little device. +[1102.28 --> 1104.28] It solves all the problems. +[1104.28 --> 1105.28] That's great. +[1105.28 --> 1107.28] What a great attitude. +[1107.28 --> 1108.28] Yeah. +[1108.28 --> 1111.28] That was, like I said, this was Nintendo's year. +[1111.28 --> 1112.28] They rocked E3 100%. +[1112.28 --> 1117.28] I got some really cool, I don't know if I'm supposed to take these, but um, I, the voting +[1117.28 --> 1119.28] cards from the Nintendo Invitational. +[1119.28 --> 1120.28] Yes. +[1120.28 --> 1122.28] Did you see how that worked when they held up the cards? +[1122.28 --> 1123.28] No. +[1123.28 --> 1126.28] They were like this big and you voted for which character should win or whatever. +[1126.28 --> 1129.28] And it was like this book of voting cards. +[1129.28 --> 1131.28] You are such an embarrassment sometimes. +[1131.28 --> 1134.28] He has no shame when it comes to swag. +[1134.28 --> 1136.28] Like I, I've been in the industry a long time. +[1136.28 --> 1140.28] And companies will be like, here, do you want the swag bag at our booth? +[1140.28 --> 1141.28] And I'm like, no, it's okay. +[1141.28 --> 1143.28] I really, I don't even have anywhere to put this stuff at this point. +[1143.28 --> 1144.28] I try to take four. +[1144.28 --> 1148.28] And he's like, he's going to be like, oh, yeah, I'll take it. +[1148.28 --> 1149.28] Also, I'll have Linus's. +[1149.28 --> 1150.28] Do you have any other stuff? +[1150.28 --> 1154.28] Do you have any stuff that's just a part of your actual booth fixture that I can just +[1154.28 --> 1155.28] take it? +[1155.28 --> 1157.28] I've tried that before. +[1157.28 --> 1158.28] It's worked before. +[1158.28 --> 1159.28] You know what's funny though? +[1159.28 --> 1163.28] Um, and let's move on to, uh, let's move on to our, did you have anything else particularly +[1163.28 --> 1164.28] for Nintendo? +[1164.28 --> 1165.28] Cause I've got a great segment. +[1165.28 --> 1168.28] Uh, the other stuff would just be in the video, which is up in like seven minutes. +[1168.28 --> 1169.28] So be sure to check that out. +[1169.28 --> 1170.28] Okay. +[1170.28 --> 1171.28] All right. +[1171.28 --> 1175.28] So let's move on to speaking of boot swag, the designed by Razer licensing program. +[1175.28 --> 1180.28] This was officially posted or originally posted by LaFerre on the Linus Tech Tips forum. +[1180.28 --> 1181.28] Thank you very much for that. +[1181.28 --> 1185.28] I'm going to switch over to my screen here and oh, oh, there it goes. +[1185.28 --> 1186.28] That was interesting. +[1186.28 --> 1190.28] So this is the Razer special edition H440. +[1190.28 --> 1196.28] It is basically an NZXT H440, but with, what are they calling it? +[1196.28 --> 1200.28] A special edition H440 for gamers by gamers. +[1200.28 --> 1201.28] Designed by Razer H440. +[1201.28 --> 1202.28] What is that? +[1202.28 --> 1205.28] Oh, it's probably this adapter. +[1205.28 --> 1206.28] Yeah. +[1206.28 --> 1207.28] Yes it is. +[1207.28 --> 1208.28] Techno stream. +[1208.28 --> 1213.28] Oh no, stop. +[1213.28 --> 1215.28] Well, I'm holding it now. +[1215.28 --> 1221.28] Um, anyway, so this is, it's got like a design by Razer badge, um, right here and that's +[1221.28 --> 1222.28] pretty cool. +[1222.28 --> 1226.28] Um, but truthfully that that this case isn't the big news to me. +[1226.28 --> 1231.28] The big news here is more collaboration between brands like this. +[1231.28 --> 1232.28] I think that's a very positive thing. +[1232.28 --> 1237.28] I mean, aesthetics are definitely a factor for me when I'm building a rig and I think +[1237.28 --> 1238.28] they're a factor for a lot of people. +[1238.28 --> 1239.28] Yeah. +[1239.28 --> 1240.28] Although it's hard to tell with you. +[1240.28 --> 1241.28] Yay. +[1241.28 --> 1242.28] Aesthetics are definitely a thing. +[1242.28 --> 1247.28] I mean, as much as, you know what, we don't owe the big corporations anything. +[1247.28 --> 1251.28] We don't have to put their logos all over our chests and all over our stuff. +[1251.28 --> 1256.28] But if you really like what someone and if that is a company is doing, then you really +[1256.28 --> 1261.28] are driven to put their, their branding on stuff and that makes you feel cool. +[1261.28 --> 1263.28] Then I think stuff like this is great. +[1263.28 --> 1265.28] Um, they haven't changed anything really. +[1265.28 --> 1266.28] No, no. +[1266.28 --> 1267.28] Like let's be truthful about this. +[1267.28 --> 1268.28] They put a logo on the front. +[1268.28 --> 1269.28] They changed the color scheme. +[1269.28 --> 1271.28] They put some lighting effects in it, but that's about it. +[1271.28 --> 1272.28] It's still an H440. +[1272.28 --> 1276.28] But what I like about this is the H440 is a great case. +[1276.28 --> 1279.28] So now it's available in black and green. +[1279.28 --> 1280.28] That's cool. +[1280.28 --> 1281.28] Well, there is a logo. +[1281.28 --> 1282.28] Yeah, I'm down with that. +[1282.28 --> 1285.28] Anyway, so on to stealing things from booths. +[1285.28 --> 1289.28] Um, one of the ones that was in NZXT's booth, that's like an early mockup. +[1289.28 --> 1290.28] They're sending it here. +[1290.28 --> 1292.28] Oh, oh, I thought it got stolen. +[1292.28 --> 1294.28] I was like, I didn't take this. +[1294.28 --> 1295.28] Don't look at me. +[1295.28 --> 1296.28] No, no. +[1296.28 --> 1299.28] They're, they're going to tear it down after the show and then they're going to send it +[1299.28 --> 1303.28] to us so that we can, our next build guide that we film, not the one that's coming out +[1303.28 --> 1305.28] this weekend, by the way, there's a build guide coming out this weekend. +[1305.28 --> 1310.28] The next one that we film is going to be a green and black themed rig in this case. +[1310.28 --> 1311.28] Cool. +[1311.28 --> 1312.28] That'll be good. +[1312.28 --> 1313.28] We're going to have a pre-production one. +[1313.28 --> 1314.28] It does look nice. +[1314.28 --> 1318.28] And because the green LEDs are very dark and there's like the kind of blackout tint on the +[1318.28 --> 1322.28] window a little bit, it's this like deep kind of moody green, which actually looks +[1322.28 --> 1323.28] pretty good. +[1323.28 --> 1326.28] I'm sourcing a bunch of like cool green themed stuff to put in it. +[1326.28 --> 1330.28] That, that sniper with the, I don't know what it's called, but not red line because +[1330.28 --> 1331.28] it's green line. +[1331.28 --> 1333.28] Gigabytes new boards aren't green. +[1333.28 --> 1334.28] What? +[1334.28 --> 1336.28] And this is going to be a Devil's Canyon system. +[1336.28 --> 1337.28] Oh. +[1337.28 --> 1339.28] So I'd rather use a Z97 board if I can. +[1339.28 --> 1340.28] Yeah. +[1340.28 --> 1341.28] Yeah, bummer. +[1341.28 --> 1344.28] So I'm, I'm planning to use a saber tooth just because at least it's just black. +[1344.28 --> 1345.28] Yeah. +[1345.28 --> 1346.28] And then I'm going to get some green memory. +[1346.28 --> 1347.28] We're probably going to paint memory. +[1347.28 --> 1348.28] Okay. +[1348.28 --> 1349.28] I'm giving away, I'm giving away too much. +[1349.28 --> 1351.28] The next build guide in that case is going to be frigging awesome. +[1351.28 --> 1358.28] Um, speaking of Devil's Canyon, I think that leads pretty well into the Pentium KG3258. +[1358.28 --> 1364.28] Cryptically named, um, but the results are looking pretty impressive. +[1364.28 --> 1368.28] This was originally posted by the Magical Maniac on the Linus Tech Tips forum. +[1368.28 --> 1371.28] Original article here is from BitTech. +[1371.28 --> 1378.28] And this processor looks like the spiritual successor to the Pentium D805, which basically +[1378.28 --> 1382.28] means we are looking at some pretty kick ass stuff going on here. +[1382.28 --> 1385.28] The D805 was a dual core processor. +[1385.28 --> 1388.28] It consumed a bunch of power, whereas this one won't. +[1388.28 --> 1394.28] Um, it was very, very low clocked out of the box, which this one is. +[1394.28 --> 1399.28] But what kicked butt about the Pentium D805 was it overclocked like nuts. +[1399.28 --> 1403.28] That thing was cheap and it was a fantastic value. +[1403.28 --> 1409.28] And at the time that was Intel's response to a very competitive AMD where Intel is basically +[1409.28 --> 1417.28] like, hmm, okay, we have to do something because our chips are just not worth that much right +[1417.28 --> 1418.28] now. +[1418.28 --> 1421.28] So they came up with the Pentium D805. +[1421.28 --> 1424.28] They removed some features, like it didn't have all the same stuff at something like +[1424.28 --> 1426.28] a 930, or what did they call them? +[1426.28 --> 1428.28] Yeah, I think it was a 930 or something like that. +[1428.28 --> 1432.28] Anyway, it didn't have all the same features, but it overclocked like a bat out of hell and +[1432.28 --> 1434.28] it was a chip of choice for gamers. +[1434.28 --> 1438.28] This looks like it's going to be pretty much the same thing. +[1438.28 --> 1443.28] So we've seen people reporting overclocked from 3.2 to 4.5 gigahertz. +[1443.28 --> 1450.28] Like I said before, it is only a dual core, but in games that are not dependent on heavily +[1450.28 --> 1456.28] threaded processors with hyper threading and four or six or eight cores, this thing is going +[1456.28 --> 1458.28] to absolutely kick butt. +[1458.28 --> 1462.28] So they're showing what kind of performance increases you can see with it. +[1462.28 --> 1464.28] It shows what kind of performance it has. +[1464.28 --> 1468.28] I'm seeing some reports, although it's not in this particular article, that we could be +[1468.28 --> 1474.28] looking at similar to 4770K performance with this chip, especially in games where we're +[1474.28 --> 1479.28] not bound by how many processing cores that we have. +[1479.28 --> 1481.28] So, looks pretty good. +[1481.28 --> 1482.28] Pretty good, pretty good. +[1482.28 --> 1484.28] That is actually really interesting, but I've had people- +[1484.28 --> 1485.28] And it does have hyper threading by the way. +[1485.28 --> 1486.28] Two cores, two threads. +[1486.28 --> 1489.28] So just like a core i3, but unlocked and overclockable. +[1489.28 --> 1490.28] Yeah. +[1490.28 --> 1491.28] Yeah. +[1491.28 --> 1492.28] Okay. +[1492.28 --> 1493.28] What else have we got? +[1493.28 --> 1496.28] There's like everything this week. +[1496.28 --> 1499.28] Should we talk about GTA 5 and that other game? +[1499.28 --> 1500.28] Sure, sure. +[1500.28 --> 1501.28] That shall remain nameless. +[1501.28 --> 1502.28] Let's do GTA 5 first. +[1502.28 --> 1506.28] Alright, so this was originally posted on the Linus Tech Tips forum by Askew. +[1506.28 --> 1507.28] Thank you for that. +[1507.28 --> 1508.28] You're awesome. +[1508.28 --> 1509.28] Yay. +[1509.28 --> 1512.28] Shoutouts for all the people who post news on the Linus Tech Tips forum. +[1512.28 --> 1513.28] You guys are awesome. +[1513.28 --> 1518.28] Anyway, the original article was from Eurogamer.net. +[1518.28 --> 1522.28] GTA 5 is coming to the PC, PS4 and Xbox One. +[1522.28 --> 1526.28] And at least two of those three, I think we kind of saw coming. +[1526.28 --> 1528.28] But, haha, haha, yeah. +[1528.28 --> 1533.28] Haha, yeah, you're going to be able to transfer your online saves, which will be interesting. +[1533.28 --> 1536.28] But I haven't heard anything on campaign transfer. +[1536.28 --> 1539.28] This is actually kind of the reason why I quit playing. +[1539.28 --> 1542.28] Back when I had a roommate, we had it for Xbox 360. +[1542.28 --> 1546.28] And I stopped, like, pretty early in. +[1546.28 --> 1548.28] Because I was like, this is an awesome game. +[1548.28 --> 1549.28] But I'm going to wait. +[1549.28 --> 1551.28] Because I hope it will come to PC eventually. +[1551.28 --> 1553.28] I'm surprised it took them a year. +[1553.28 --> 1555.28] I hope that's because they're optimizing it. +[1555.28 --> 1559.28] Because on launch, GTA 4 was like, completely poo. +[1559.28 --> 1561.28] That's basically all I have to say about it. +[1561.28 --> 1562.28] It performed terribly. +[1562.28 --> 1565.28] But, again, they've taken a year. +[1565.28 --> 1569.28] And I think the platform architecture is going to be a lot more similar than last time. +[1569.28 --> 1571.28] So hopefully that helps them as well. +[1571.28 --> 1578.28] Apparently there will be existing, like, the existing add-on content for GTA 5 will be kind of bundled in. +[1578.28 --> 1584.28] There's going to be upgraded AI for the PC version, even compared to Xbox One and PS4. +[1584.28 --> 1585.28] Which will be really cool. +[1585.28 --> 1590.28] They're going to have improved things like draw distances, textures, denser traffic, wildlife, +[1590.28 --> 1595.28] upgraded weather, upgraded damage effects, and tons of other crap, which is absolutely fantastic. +[1595.28 --> 1598.28] I hope it is extremely moddable. +[1598.28 --> 1599.28] They're going to have a movie maker. +[1599.28 --> 1601.28] But mods are something I am pretty interested in. +[1601.28 --> 1604.28] Because you saw, like, Icy Enhance. +[1604.28 --> 1610.28] If he comes back and does GTA 5, like, please. +[1610.28 --> 1611.28] It's amazing. +[1611.28 --> 1613.28] You did an incredibly good job with GTA 4. +[1613.28 --> 1615.28] But we need you again, sir. +[1615.28 --> 1616.28] Or madame. +[1616.28 --> 1617.28] But I'm assuming, sir. +[1617.28 --> 1620.28] Yeah, that would be great. +[1620.28 --> 1622.28] I don't really know what else to say about that. +[1622.28 --> 1623.28] That would be great. +[1623.28 --> 1624.28] That would be great. +[1624.28 --> 1627.28] If you could just come back and do all that work, that would be great. +[1627.28 --> 1631.28] Yeah, because, like, you can look at GTA 4 screenshots from that guy. +[1631.28 --> 1634.28] That would look better than, like, any game that's released now. +[1634.28 --> 1635.28] Which is ridiculous. +[1635.28 --> 1636.28] But, yeah. +[1636.28 --> 1637.28] That would be great. +[1637.28 --> 1639.28] And then there's the super... +[1639.28 --> 1640.28] Dead Rising 3. +[1640.28 --> 1644.28] Super cool announcement that turned out to be not super cool at all. +[1644.28 --> 1645.28] Okay, so hold on. +[1645.28 --> 1646.28] So let's start with the good things about this. +[1646.28 --> 1651.28] So number one is that consumers, and I encourage people to do this all the time. +[1651.28 --> 1657.28] If you're unhappy about something, if you're all butthurt, don't give people your money. +[1657.28 --> 1660.28] If you don't like what people are doing, don't give them your money. +[1660.28 --> 1665.28] So I don't know why Dead Rising 3 is coming to PC. +[1665.28 --> 1667.28] It wasn't supposed to. +[1667.28 --> 1668.28] It might have something to... +[1668.28 --> 1670.28] Yeah, well, I know it wasn't supposed to. +[1670.28 --> 1672.28] Do we have the link to it's not coming to PC? +[1672.28 --> 1673.28] Yeah, way down. +[1673.28 --> 1674.28] Yeah, hold on. +[1674.28 --> 1675.28] Control F. +[1675.28 --> 1676.28] Dead Rising. +[1676.28 --> 1679.28] No, no, that's Control Bookmark. +[1679.28 --> 1680.28] Stop it. +[1680.28 --> 1681.28] Control Bookmark? +[1681.28 --> 1682.28] Screw you, hippie. +[1682.28 --> 1683.28] Okay, so... +[1683.28 --> 1684.28] Find it? +[1684.28 --> 1686.28] Yeah, it's not there. +[1686.28 --> 1687.28] Whatever, anyway. +[1687.28 --> 1690.28] So the original story was... +[1690.28 --> 1694.28] I mean, with GTA V, the rumors have kind of been out there for a long time. +[1694.28 --> 1695.28] And they've never officially denied it. +[1695.28 --> 1697.28] They've never said, no, it's not coming to PC. +[1697.28 --> 1700.28] With Dead Rising 3, it was not so... +[1700.28 --> 1703.28] So whether it's because Xbox One isn't selling that well, +[1703.28 --> 1707.28] which would be, you know, a definite sort of good job, guys, +[1707.28 --> 1710.28] for not buying things that you're not happy with. +[1710.28 --> 1712.28] So whether it's that or whether it's something else, +[1712.28 --> 1715.28] whether it's, you know, Microsoft kind of going, +[1715.28 --> 1719.28] hey, well, we want more Xbox One content on PC +[1719.28 --> 1721.28] because we really are committed to that. +[1721.28 --> 1723.28] Although I really doubt it's the second one. +[1723.28 --> 1724.28] It's a great thing to see. +[1724.28 --> 1726.28] And I think it's a great thing to see. +[1726.28 --> 1728.28] And I think it's a great thing to see. +[1728.28 --> 1734.28] And it's a great thing to see more exclusive console franchises coming to the PC. +[1734.28 --> 1738.28] But then they went and they just wrecked it. +[1738.28 --> 1741.28] The one thing before we get into how they wrecked it, +[1741.28 --> 1742.28] there's a quote saying, +[1742.28 --> 1744.28] definitely not a timed exclusive. +[1744.28 --> 1745.28] It's an Xbox One game. +[1745.28 --> 1746.28] We see a lot of this online. +[1746.28 --> 1749.28] It's not coming to PS4 or PC. +[1749.28 --> 1751.28] Yeah, that was like months ago. +[1751.28 --> 1753.28] Well, yeah. +[1753.28 --> 1757.28] But yeah, so they've, they've, they've frame capped it to 30 FPS. +[1757.28 --> 1763.28] And they have a warning on it so that if you can take that cap off, which is nice, I guess. +[1763.28 --> 1765.28] I don't think you've put enough emphasis on it. +[1765.28 --> 1769.28] They frame capped it at 30 FPS on the PC. +[1769.28 --> 1770.28] Yeah. +[1770.28 --> 1775.28] And like I said, you can take it off. +[1775.28 --> 1779.28] But there's a giant warning saying like, we're not responsible for what happens if you do this. +[1779.28 --> 1782.28] And they fully expect the game's just going to completely break if you do that. +[1782.28 --> 1787.28] So the physics is actually, it actually works based on the frame rate. +[1787.28 --> 1790.28] So it's like, what, what need for speed game was it? +[1790.28 --> 1792.28] I don't remember which one, but I was just going to say, +[1792.28 --> 1797.28] you could double how fast your car was going by making your FPS go from 30 to 60. +[1797.28 --> 1799.28] And like, we're going to have these problems with dead rising. +[1799.28 --> 1800.28] And that's super stupid. +[1800.28 --> 1801.28] How lazy is that? +[1801.28 --> 1802.28] Incredibly lazy. +[1802.28 --> 1806.28] There's, there's a quote in the Oculus video where I have an interview with Palmer, +[1806.28 --> 1810.28] where I'm talking to him about 30 FPS versus other higher frame rates. +[1810.28 --> 1813.28] Because for VR, you're going to need way higher frame rates than 30 FPS. +[1813.28 --> 1816.28] Um, where he says 30 FPS isn't a design choice. +[1816.28 --> 1817.28] It's a failure. +[1817.28 --> 1818.28] Yay. +[1818.28 --> 1822.28] Like, yeah, no, you just suck. +[1822.28 --> 1826.28] But just how lazy is it to tie your in-game physics to... +[1826.28 --> 1827.28] I know a dev on the team too. +[1827.28 --> 1828.28] A frame rate. +[1828.28 --> 1830.28] Which is like, oh God. +[1830.28 --> 1835.28] I'm sorry, but it's terrible. +[1835.28 --> 1839.28] Um, I don't, I, I don't know. +[1839.28 --> 1842.28] I don't, I, yeah, that's really lazy. +[1842.28 --> 1844.28] Like, I get it. +[1844.28 --> 1845.28] But it's lazy. +[1845.28 --> 1850.28] I mean, we're talking, we're talking stuff that we solved like, you know, back in the +[1850.28 --> 1851.28] 90s. +[1851.28 --> 1858.28] Like, problems that, on the PC, we were like, oh yeah, in Goose, when I press the turbo button +[1858.28 --> 1861.28] on my, like, 386, it goes too fast. +[1861.28 --> 1863.28] Oh, I guess we better address this. +[1863.28 --> 1864.28] Yeah. +[1864.28 --> 1867.28] Like, we, this was, this was a problem for a little while with older games where they +[1867.28 --> 1869.28] had no ability to really foresee this. +[1869.28 --> 1871.28] Well, they could, but didn't really think about it. +[1871.28 --> 1873.28] And then it went away for a long time. +[1873.28 --> 1874.28] And now it's back. +[1874.28 --> 1875.28] It's like, why are you back? +[1875.28 --> 1876.28] Should not be a thing. +[1876.28 --> 1877.28] Why are you back? +[1877.28 --> 1880.28] Anyway, I hope we see more ports. +[1880.28 --> 1883.28] I hope we see ports that come over to the PC correctly. +[1883.28 --> 1888.28] I hope Durante or whatever his, however you pronounce his name, fixes this. +[1888.28 --> 1889.28] Cause that would be fantastic. +[1889.28 --> 1893.28] There's so many things in the announcements of like stuff coming to PC where I'm like, +[1893.28 --> 1897.28] I hope this one super well known modern guy comes back and fixes everything for us. +[1897.28 --> 1902.28] I really hope so. +[1902.28 --> 1903.28] That would be fantastic. +[1903.28 --> 1909.28] I mean, I, the thing I like about this generation of PCs is that the way that they're built +[1909.28 --> 1911.28] is so much more similar. +[1911.28 --> 1912.28] Did I say PCs? +[1912.28 --> 1913.28] Cause I meant consoles. +[1913.28 --> 1914.28] Sorry. +[1914.28 --> 1918.28] Consoles is that the way that they're built is so much more similar to a PC that porting +[1918.28 --> 1919.28] should be easier. +[1919.28 --> 1923.28] And, uh, well, mostly that porting should be easier. +[1923.28 --> 1927.28] And, uh, but there are a lot of issues with it too. +[1927.28 --> 1933.28] And I think that that's something that the console makers are very well aware of. +[1933.28 --> 1938.28] So the original posts, poster for this on the forum was Johnners and the original article +[1938.28 --> 1944.28] is from tech radar, but that is the, the headline here is the next generation of consoles could +[1944.28 --> 1947.28] come much sooner than expected. +[1947.28 --> 1948.28] So, and this is from AMD. +[1948.28 --> 1953.28] So remember, these are the guys that are making the CPU and the GPU in both the PlayStation +[1953.28 --> 1956.28] four and the Xbox one and the Wii U. +[1956.28 --> 1958.28] I said both because I forgot there are three. +[1958.28 --> 1959.28] I'm sorry, Nintendo. +[1959.28 --> 1960.28] You're still cool. +[1960.28 --> 1961.28] Really? +[1961.28 --> 1962.28] We just said you won E3. +[1962.28 --> 1963.28] I'm sorry. +[1963.28 --> 1965.28] They don't really get dropped onto the next console thing. +[1965.28 --> 1966.28] Yeah. +[1966.28 --> 1967.28] They came out way before that. +[1967.28 --> 1971.28] 30% less improved 30% less than the next gen. +[1971.28 --> 1972.28] Anyway. +[1972.28 --> 1974.28] Except their games are coming out 1080p 60 FPS. +[1974.28 --> 1975.28] I know, right? +[1975.28 --> 1976.28] So like owned. +[1976.28 --> 1977.28] And you know what? +[1977.28 --> 1978.28] Wrecked. +[1978.28 --> 1983.28] I think getting wrapped up in, in having to deliver. +[1983.28 --> 1984.28] Okay. +[1984.28 --> 1989.28] This is, this is kind of funny because we did a fast as possible on, um, what was it? +[1989.28 --> 1990.28] Refresh rates. +[1990.28 --> 1991.28] Nope. +[1991.28 --> 1994.28] Not that one frame on, um, resolution. +[1994.28 --> 1995.28] Yeah. +[1995.28 --> 1996.28] Well, you were gone. +[1996.28 --> 2002.28] We did a fast as possible on resolution and I was getting sample footage of Far Cry 3 running +[2002.28 --> 2009.28] at 720p maximum, like everything on ultra and 1080p with everything on minimum to go, okay, +[2009.28 --> 2016.28] here's an extreme example of how level of detail versus resolution affects how a game looks. +[2016.28 --> 2025.28] And in between switching from 720p, uh, right, 720p maximum to 1080p not, I increased the resolution +[2025.28 --> 2028.28] first and then I turned all the details off. +[2028.28 --> 2034.28] And I was like, you know, if I pixel peep, I can tell. +[2034.28 --> 2041.28] But if I'm not looking that close, like, I just got a lot of performance and it really +[2041.28 --> 2043.28] doesn't look that different. +[2043.28 --> 2049.28] So I'm kind of sitting here going like, if you, if you tailor your art style correctly, +[2049.28 --> 2054.28] there isn't really a good reason why you can't turn off some of the goofy effects and get +[2054.28 --> 2058.28] a better frame rate and deliver what is in my mind a much more playable experience. +[2058.28 --> 2065.28] I mean, playing something like Mario Kart at 30fps, 900p, like, the first thing I would +[2065.28 --> 2069.28] tell Nintendo is like, come on, man, how are we supposed to play like that? +[2069.28 --> 2073.28] And yet competitive gamers accept this on other consoles. +[2073.28 --> 2074.28] Anyway. +[2074.28 --> 2077.28] This is actually, to throw back again to the Nintendo video that just came out nine minutes +[2077.28 --> 2078.28] ago. +[2078.28 --> 2082.28] And part of that I bring up about how like, Wii U's really not the most powerful platform. +[2082.28 --> 2083.28] No, it's really not. +[2083.28 --> 2084.28] But they know that. +[2084.28 --> 2089.28] And they design the games and tailor the games for that and the art style of the games and +[2089.28 --> 2090.28] everything still looks great. +[2090.28 --> 2092.28] Like, have you, have you seen the Zelda stuff? +[2092.28 --> 2093.28] No, I haven't. +[2093.28 --> 2094.28] Oh my God. +[2094.28 --> 2095.28] It looks really good. +[2095.28 --> 2097.28] But then it's because it's their style. +[2097.28 --> 2098.28] Yeah. +[2098.28 --> 2100.28] It's like, it's like the whole Blizzard thing. +[2100.28 --> 2101.28] Yeah. +[2101.28 --> 2103.28] Warcraft 3 is a very visually pleasing game. +[2103.28 --> 2104.28] Yep. +[2104.28 --> 2107.28] They've got polygons that have like, you know, six sides. +[2107.28 --> 2108.28] Oh yeah. +[2108.28 --> 2109.28] And it's like, this is a sword. +[2109.28 --> 2110.28] Don't look too close. +[2110.28 --> 2111.28] No, no, no, no. +[2111.28 --> 2114.28] But it looks good because it's a style. +[2114.28 --> 2117.28] And they're pulling off a specific style and it works really well. +[2117.28 --> 2118.28] But it, yes. +[2118.28 --> 2119.28] And I'm okay with that. +[2119.28 --> 2125.28] And with that said, I do, I do like that, you know, we're pushing the envelope graphics +[2125.28 --> 2126.28] wise. +[2126.28 --> 2127.28] Definitely. +[2127.28 --> 2130.28] But I'm more okay with that on the PC end where we can actually have the performance +[2130.28 --> 2131.28] to do it. +[2131.28 --> 2134.28] Anyway, I wonder what the backstory here is. +[2134.28 --> 2140.28] But AMD is hinting that the console developers are even further along than we, the end users, +[2140.28 --> 2141.28] might expect. +[2141.28 --> 2142.28] Mm-hmm. +[2142.28 --> 2147.28] Nintendo has apparently already clearly confirmed, or confirmed that they have a clear idea. +[2147.28 --> 2148.28] They did this a few months ago. +[2148.28 --> 2149.28] Actually. +[2149.28 --> 2150.28] Of what the Wii U successor will look like. +[2150.28 --> 2151.28] Yep. +[2151.28 --> 2157.28] And I got to wonder, like, did AMD tell these guys, yo, dog, you know, it's maybe another +[2157.28 --> 2162.28] 20, 30 bucks in bomb cost, but you really need to put a better chip in these things. +[2162.28 --> 2165.28] You need better graphics hardware in these things. +[2165.28 --> 2167.28] Please let us build something better for you. +[2167.28 --> 2171.28] Like, I wonder if they're just kind of sitting there laughing, going, okay, well, I guess +[2171.28 --> 2172.28] we're back from another round. +[2172.28 --> 2173.28] Another round all the way. +[2173.28 --> 2174.28] Yeah, yeah. +[2174.28 --> 2179.28] But it really does feel like they just screwed it up, graphics hardware wise. +[2179.28 --> 2183.28] And like I said, we've got a really interesting video coming, probably in a couple of weeks, +[2183.28 --> 2188.28] where we're going to take a look at how much more power it really takes to go from one resolution +[2188.28 --> 2191.28] to another resolution and deliver the same graphical fidelity. +[2191.28 --> 2194.28] Yeah, or from a certain frame rate to another frame rate. +[2194.28 --> 2195.28] Yeah. +[2195.28 --> 2196.28] So stay tuned for that. +[2196.28 --> 2198.28] That's actually going to be pretty cool. +[2198.28 --> 2200.28] What else we got? +[2200.28 --> 2202.28] Should we get into one of our like rapid fire topics? +[2202.28 --> 2203.28] Sure. +[2203.28 --> 2205.28] Yeah, that's kind of cool. +[2205.28 --> 2206.28] Okay. +[2206.28 --> 2209.28] So this is, and it was originally posted on the forum by... +[2209.28 --> 2210.28] Forum? +[2210.28 --> 2211.28] Nope. +[2211.28 --> 2212.28] Not a forum. +[2212.28 --> 2213.28] Not a forum thread. +[2213.28 --> 2216.28] I think I saw it on the forum actually, but whatever. +[2216.28 --> 2223.28] This 370 inch TV costs 1.6 million US dollars. +[2223.28 --> 2226.28] One million pounds. +[2226.28 --> 2231.28] It's actually, it's the Titan Zeus. +[2231.28 --> 2237.28] And you can see, you can see in the picture here, like, these are trees, you know? +[2237.28 --> 2244.28] There's no word on the actual image quality. +[2244.28 --> 2246.28] It's a 4K TV. +[2246.28 --> 2251.28] So 370 inches works out to about 8 meters wide by 5 meters tall. +[2251.28 --> 2256.28] And there's only been one sold to a private owner who wants to remain anonymous that we +[2256.28 --> 2257.28] know of so far. +[2257.28 --> 2265.28] Although some people have seen it at, at the, at film festivals or outland apparently. +[2265.28 --> 2268.28] They will also be showing, oh, they'll be showing World Cup matches on it. +[2268.28 --> 2274.28] So they are, you can find them in certain places, but other than that, this just looks +[2274.28 --> 2277.28] like a because we can type of thing. +[2277.28 --> 2278.28] At 8... +[2278.28 --> 2281.28] Even at 4K, what is the PPI of this thing? +[2281.28 --> 2282.28] I know. +[2282.28 --> 2283.28] At 8 meters by 5 meters. +[2283.28 --> 2284.28] Okay. +[2284.28 --> 2287.28] Just for you personally, let's say they cost the same. +[2287.28 --> 2289.28] Let's say both solutions are $1,000. +[2289.28 --> 2290.28] Okay. +[2290.28 --> 2292.28] Would you want a TV or a projector? +[2292.28 --> 2299.28] Bearing in mind a projector is not going to perform that well in a bright environment. +[2299.28 --> 2301.28] Probably a projector. +[2301.28 --> 2302.28] But it's not in the way. +[2302.28 --> 2303.28] Like you can mount it somewhere else. +[2303.28 --> 2304.28] That's what I mean. +[2304.28 --> 2308.28] Because like this thing is just, I'd be so worried about it getting destroyed all the +[2308.28 --> 2309.28] time. +[2309.28 --> 2310.28] Right. +[2310.28 --> 2313.28] Like moving that anywhere is going to be terrible. +[2313.28 --> 2316.28] Like they're saying they've been to different shows and stuff. +[2316.28 --> 2320.28] The first thing that popped in my mind is like how intricate the shipping process must +[2320.28 --> 2321.28] have been. +[2321.28 --> 2322.28] Because holy crap. +[2322.28 --> 2324.28] And then it's a projector you can just throw in a box. +[2324.28 --> 2325.28] It's like okay cool. +[2325.28 --> 2328.28] At that size I would probably go for a projector. +[2328.28 --> 2333.28] And because, I don't know, you can even see there it's kind of black around the TV. +[2333.28 --> 2336.28] You're probably, where are you going to put this in a house? +[2336.28 --> 2338.28] And if it's outside, it's probably going to be at night. +[2338.28 --> 2339.28] 8 meters by 5 meters. +[2339.28 --> 2342.28] I'm just trying to think, where would you put this in a house? +[2342.28 --> 2343.28] Like that's... +[2343.28 --> 2346.28] Although if you're buying a million dollar TV, maybe you can put this in a house. +[2346.28 --> 2347.28] Right. +[2347.28 --> 2348.28] Yeah, that's really big. +[2348.28 --> 2350.28] I mean 8 meters, that's like 25 feet. +[2350.28 --> 2351.28] I guess you could... +[2351.28 --> 2352.28] Like you would have to build a room for it. +[2352.28 --> 2353.28] Yeah. +[2353.28 --> 2354.28] But then again, at a million dollars you could probably just build a room. +[2354.28 --> 2355.28] Even like a baller house where there's like, you know, a basketball court. +[2355.28 --> 2356.28] We're talking like you're converting your basketball court. +[2356.28 --> 2358.28] It's kind of a big deal actually. +[2358.28 --> 2360.28] But then at a million dollars you're kind of probably a big deal. +[2360.28 --> 2361.28] So I don't know. +[2361.28 --> 2362.28] Yeah, I guess so. +[2362.28 --> 2363.28] Or the son of a big deal. +[2363.28 --> 2364.28] Either way. +[2364.28 --> 2365.28] Oh, Ghost says it's 11 point. +[2365.28 --> 2366.28] It's 11 point. +[2366.28 --> 2367.28] It's 11 point. +[2367.28 --> 2368.28] That's really not good. +[2368.28 --> 2371.28] I mean, you're going to have to sit like drive in theater to a party. +[2371.28 --> 2372.28] I mean, you're going to have to sit down. +[2372.28 --> 2373.28] And then at a, you know, a basketball court. +[2373.28 --> 2374.28] You're going to have to convert the table. +[2374.28 --> 2375.28] And then it's like a basketball court. +[2375.28 --> 2376.28] We're talking like you're converting your basketball court. +[2376.28 --> 2377.28] It's kind of a big deal, actually. +[2377.28 --> 2379.28] But then at a million dollars you're kind of probably a big deal. +[2379.28 --> 2380.28] So I don't know. +[2380.28 --> 2381.28] Yeah, I guess so. +[2381.28 --> 2388.74] Oh, Ghost says it's 11.91 pixels per inch, which is sort of terrible. +[2390.08 --> 2391.40] That's really not good. +[2391.66 --> 2395.64] I mean, you're going to have to sit, like, drive-in theater distance away from this. +[2395.64 --> 2398.44] Yeah, so that makes that room a lot more difficult to set up. +[2398.58 --> 2403.98] I mean, at a certain point, I think that this point really is 55 inches. +[2404.46 --> 2407.92] At a certain point, does a bigger TV even make any sense, +[2407.92 --> 2411.10] or are you better off just sitting closer to a smaller TV? +[2412.22 --> 2414.02] You have to wonder about room design. +[2414.16 --> 2417.82] Like, in some houses, it's going to be pretty far throw distance. +[2418.38 --> 2418.74] Yeah. +[2418.90 --> 2422.28] What's the proper throw distance for a 55-inch TV? +[2422.48 --> 2423.34] I can't remember. +[2424.12 --> 2429.16] IsThisRetina.com has sort of a measurement of what pixel densities will look like. +[2429.18 --> 2431.76] What will look like Retina from certain distances? +[2432.24 --> 2435.86] But 55 is pretty big for a reasonable-sized room. +[2435.86 --> 2436.06] Yeah. +[2436.16 --> 2440.90] Whereas I think you could probably go, you could push 60, 70 for something like, more like +[2440.90 --> 2443.02] a home theater, like media room. +[2444.08 --> 2447.10] But even then, like, you'd probably want to go projector because you're going to build +[2447.10 --> 2448.76] a proper media room at that point anyway. +[2448.98 --> 2451.46] And then you can throw, like, a nice 100-inch or whatever else. +[2451.46 --> 2452.50] And you can do it on the cheap. +[2452.54 --> 2453.40] You can do it for a few grand. +[2453.54 --> 2456.92] And if you're building a media room, you can probably control the lighting. +[2457.54 --> 2457.78] Yes. +[2457.78 --> 2459.64] So it's probably fine. +[2460.30 --> 2465.20] And I would spend my million dollars on, like, the most badass seating. +[2465.74 --> 2466.02] Yeah. +[2466.22 --> 2470.46] Instead, like, with, like, poop holes built into each seat so you never have to move. +[2471.24 --> 2472.34] And, like, well, no, no. +[2472.44 --> 2473.18] Okay, look. +[2473.34 --> 2480.02] So the way it would work is you'd have a constant suction from somewhere outside of the room +[2480.02 --> 2484.48] so that the smell of the poo would never actually reach the other people. +[2484.48 --> 2487.84] And then what you could do is you could turn the suction off so that your butt doesn't +[2487.84 --> 2489.48] get cold the entire time that you're sitting there. +[2490.28 --> 2491.18] You have heated seats. +[2491.28 --> 2491.96] Genius, right? +[2492.18 --> 2492.38] Yeah. +[2492.56 --> 2493.46] The best idea ever? +[2493.60 --> 2493.80] No. +[2495.66 --> 2496.12] But I... +[2496.12 --> 2497.48] So was that, like, a you're a loser? +[2499.62 --> 2501.98] Have you seen the Rockat video that I released? +[2502.40 --> 2503.60] I haven't watched it yet. +[2503.70 --> 2504.96] I'm familiar with the keyboard, though. +[2505.04 --> 2506.26] Yeah, it is actually pretty interesting. +[2506.72 --> 2507.74] And I've seen... +[2507.74 --> 2511.42] Because the main reason why I wanted to do that video is so many people ask about wireless +[2511.42 --> 2511.80] keyboards. +[2511.80 --> 2514.68] And as it's not technically just a wireless keyboard... +[2514.68 --> 2515.32] This is great. +[2515.76 --> 2517.20] Sorry, someone just posted a Twitch chat. +[2517.26 --> 2518.38] He put thought into this? +[2518.80 --> 2519.16] No. +[2519.78 --> 2521.36] That was off the top of my head. +[2521.42 --> 2522.06] Thank you, though. +[2522.64 --> 2523.46] Sorry, go ahead. +[2525.30 --> 2525.70] Wow. +[2525.82 --> 2527.46] Johnny says, why are we watching this? +[2528.90 --> 2530.86] Little do we know, go back to Linus' house. +[2530.98 --> 2534.60] There's this, like, in a dark room, there's this blue schematic up on the wall. +[2535.88 --> 2537.52] I have, like, all these whiteboards. +[2537.78 --> 2538.48] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2538.48 --> 2540.40] What if this would work? +[2541.16 --> 2543.42] We could apply suction in exactly this way. +[2543.82 --> 2547.02] If we while the pipes together, we can just have one big vacuum. +[2547.24 --> 2547.76] That's terrible. +[2547.90 --> 2549.26] Sorry, tell me about the Rockat thing. +[2549.50 --> 2550.24] It's wireless. +[2550.48 --> 2551.18] It's mechanical. +[2551.44 --> 2552.32] It's pretty cool. +[2552.44 --> 2557.26] My biggest worry was that, like, it has a built-in mousepad and built-in wrist rest. +[2557.36 --> 2557.64] Yes. +[2557.72 --> 2559.52] And those are just going to get insta-destroyed. +[2559.62 --> 2559.98] Yes. +[2559.98 --> 2562.10] But it's supposed to be modular. +[2562.40 --> 2564.20] You're supposed to be able to replace them. +[2564.52 --> 2571.74] I hope that it's not, like, this crazy, proprietary, insanely expensive solution in terms of modularity. +[2571.82 --> 2572.42] Yeah, it probably is. +[2572.64 --> 2573.30] It probably is. +[2573.88 --> 2574.52] But, yeah. +[2574.62 --> 2575.76] So, I mean, it looks pretty cool. +[2575.88 --> 2581.28] It's like a desk keyboard mousepad thing that's designed to bring gaming to the couch. +[2581.36 --> 2585.84] Better than most other desk keyboard mousepad things that I've seen before, other than potentially the Couchmaster. +[2585.84 --> 2586.84] But then that's, like, a... +[2587.70 --> 2588.70] The Couchmaster's bulky. +[2589.06 --> 2589.30] Yeah. +[2589.58 --> 2592.58] The Couchmaster is multiple pieces, so it's really not that elegant. +[2592.60 --> 2594.66] It's a very different solution, though, from this one. +[2594.80 --> 2594.98] Yeah. +[2595.12 --> 2597.36] So, it's good in certain situations, but it's giant. +[2597.52 --> 2597.98] So, I don't know. +[2598.08 --> 2598.60] It's up to you. +[2599.80 --> 2600.44] All right. +[2601.54 --> 2603.40] Oh, I was just thinking. +[2603.50 --> 2606.30] I was like, oh, we should game tonight for after party. +[2606.50 --> 2607.90] But the wife and kid. +[2608.26 --> 2609.78] My wife gets off early, so. +[2610.06 --> 2612.12] And then I didn't see the baby yesterday, so. +[2612.86 --> 2613.10] I guess. +[2613.14 --> 2615.04] Speaking of the baby, I've got to feed him somehow. +[2615.04 --> 2616.24] So, here come our sponsors. +[2616.92 --> 2617.08] Oh. +[2617.36 --> 2618.22] That's the wrong thing. +[2618.44 --> 2618.58] Sorry. +[2618.70 --> 2619.32] Didn't mean to do that. +[2619.66 --> 2619.86] Okay. +[2619.96 --> 2620.64] So, first up. +[2622.86 --> 2623.92] That's PAX. +[2624.06 --> 2625.14] What am I doing? +[2625.38 --> 2625.52] Oh. +[2625.92 --> 2626.28] Yeah. +[2629.00 --> 2629.84] We got there. +[2630.76 --> 2630.96] All right. +[2631.00 --> 2633.28] I'm going to let you thank the E3 sponsors. +[2633.58 --> 2634.88] Thank you to HyperX. +[2634.98 --> 2637.30] They brought us down to their whole HyperX offices. +[2637.46 --> 2638.40] We got to do an office tour. +[2638.56 --> 2639.04] That was actually. +[2639.46 --> 2639.70] That was. +[2639.78 --> 2640.78] Did you see that one? +[2640.92 --> 2641.08] No. +[2641.14 --> 2641.66] I don't watch your videos. +[2641.66 --> 2642.28] There was. +[2642.78 --> 2645.42] They have a 5v5 gaming land room set up. +[2645.48 --> 2645.66] Okay. +[2645.70 --> 2646.28] I saw that part of it. +[2646.28 --> 2646.72] I skipped. +[2647.24 --> 2647.68] Ridiculous. +[2647.82 --> 2648.00] Yeah. +[2648.24 --> 2648.92] Oh, man. +[2649.04 --> 2649.86] Those chairs, man. +[2650.00 --> 2650.42] Oh, my. +[2650.72 --> 2651.00] Oh. +[2651.22 --> 2653.24] And they're really, really comfortable chairs. +[2653.44 --> 2654.68] I got to sit in one for a little while. +[2655.24 --> 2656.38] That was really cool. +[2656.94 --> 2661.06] Right off camera in the gaming land room, they have a constantly stocked monster fridge full +[2661.06 --> 2661.96] of monster energy drinks. +[2662.12 --> 2662.40] Hold on. +[2662.44 --> 2663.86] I have a correction, by the way. +[2663.98 --> 2665.68] Back to that Pentium K anniversary edition. +[2665.68 --> 2667.72] It is two cores, two threads. +[2667.84 --> 2668.42] No hyper-threading. +[2669.06 --> 2669.30] Sorry. +[2669.70 --> 2669.88] Okay. +[2669.94 --> 2670.14] Go ahead. +[2670.28 --> 2670.52] Okay. +[2670.60 --> 2670.96] Just saw that. +[2671.10 --> 2671.42] Um. +[2672.50 --> 2672.70] Yeah. +[2672.72 --> 2673.36] That was pretty cool. +[2673.42 --> 2674.80] That helped me because I hadn't slept. +[2674.88 --> 2678.52] When I was filming those Kingston videos, all three of the Kingston videos, I changed shirts +[2678.52 --> 2682.62] so it looked like different days, but it was all within the same little bit of fridge. +[2682.64 --> 2683.12] Such a dork. +[2683.14 --> 2687.76] But it was in a range of like 30 to 34 hours that I had been awake for filming those videos. +[2687.96 --> 2692.14] So we walk into the land room and there's a monster fridge and I'm like, ah. +[2692.78 --> 2697.64] You know what's hilarious is I actually got a message from Kingston that specifically said, +[2698.12 --> 2700.56] yeah, it's amazing how your team was great. +[2700.66 --> 2701.50] They were super awesome. +[2701.60 --> 2704.78] They were really professional, especially considering how little sleep they had. +[2704.78 --> 2708.60] So thanks to Kingston for sending us down there. +[2708.72 --> 2712.96] Also huge thanks to Corsair and NCIX for sending us down there. +[2713.32 --> 2717.84] Corsair specifically wants us to highlight the heck out of their new RGB keyboards. +[2718.40 --> 2720.32] Which of course they don't have to tell us to do. +[2720.56 --> 2721.56] No, we've done that a lot. +[2721.74 --> 2724.70] Because we heart the RGB keyboards all the way. +[2724.88 --> 2729.86] And then NCIX asked us to specifically call out what a great value we think that buying a +[2729.86 --> 2731.38] gaming rig from NCIX is. +[2731.38 --> 2734.38] And I think we can both get on board that because compared to... +[2734.38 --> 2734.90] 50 bucks. +[2735.00 --> 2739.00] Compared to buying a boutique rig or compared to building it yourself, there's a compelling +[2739.00 --> 2742.26] value here because you get all the parts for the same price as it would cost to buy them +[2742.26 --> 2744.86] off the shelf or online from some other retailer. +[2745.08 --> 2746.08] They do price match. +[2746.20 --> 2748.90] So you literally can get them for the same price as another retailer. +[2749.18 --> 2751.72] Then they assemble it for you for 50 bucks. +[2752.16 --> 2756.54] And that 50 bucks includes a one year return to depot warranty that includes troubleshooting +[2756.54 --> 2758.50] and North American tech support. +[2758.50 --> 2759.62] I personally know people... +[2759.62 --> 2760.78] Not outsourced tech support for your system. +[2760.78 --> 2761.78] Yeah. +[2761.78 --> 2762.78] Yeah. +[2762.78 --> 2765.16] I personally know people that are actually really good at building computers that are just +[2765.16 --> 2767.46] way too lazy and have paid the 50 bucks. +[2767.46 --> 2768.46] Yeah. +[2768.46 --> 2770.46] And they do a pretty good job. +[2770.46 --> 2771.46] I don't. +[2771.46 --> 2775.54] It's not like old school voodoo PC origami cabling. +[2775.54 --> 2776.54] It isn't... +[2776.54 --> 2778.40] They're not individually sleeving every wire. +[2778.40 --> 2779.52] That's not what you're getting. +[2779.52 --> 2783.84] What you're getting is a professionally installed computer that is 50 bucks. +[2783.84 --> 2784.84] So like... +[2784.84 --> 2785.60] It's... +[2785.60 --> 2785.80] Yeah. +[2785.92 --> 2786.98] It's actually not that bad. +[2787.06 --> 2788.20] When I was first told... +[2788.20 --> 2790.32] I used to build computers for people for like... +[2790.32 --> 2791.28] I think it was like 75. +[2791.54 --> 2792.98] And then I heard NCX was doing it for 50. +[2793.02 --> 2793.64] And I was like, oh. +[2794.60 --> 2796.50] I really hope this doesn't get out. +[2796.88 --> 2797.56] All right. +[2797.62 --> 2799.66] So our next sponsor call out. +[2799.76 --> 2801.74] And this one is a huge deal. +[2801.74 --> 2810.60] This time next week, I will be getting ready to get on a plane and go climb the second highest +[2810.60 --> 2812.82] mountain in the lower 48. +[2812.82 --> 2813.02] Wait. +[2813.04 --> 2813.98] Are we having a WAN show next week? +[2814.50 --> 2814.94] Yeah. +[2815.04 --> 2815.62] There'll be a WAN show. +[2815.76 --> 2816.84] He said this time next week. +[2816.92 --> 2817.64] I'll be getting ready. +[2818.58 --> 2818.66] Yeah. +[2818.66 --> 2819.12] On a WAN show? +[2819.70 --> 2820.42] Well, ready-ish. +[2820.54 --> 2821.12] Are we streaming? +[2821.44 --> 2821.54] Getting ready? +[2821.54 --> 2822.12] Oh, just calm down. +[2822.44 --> 2822.74] Anyway. +[2823.20 --> 2824.50] There's WAN show next week. +[2824.82 --> 2830.08] So we're going to be preparing to hike Mount Elbert with a huge group. +[2830.28 --> 2831.14] Hopefully huge. +[2831.14 --> 2832.26] People just... +[2832.26 --> 2834.04] They've got to confirm and get their tickets booked. +[2834.14 --> 2836.10] But Austin Evans has his ticket booked. +[2836.34 --> 2836.92] He's coming. +[2837.44 --> 2841.36] Logan from Tech Syndicate is co-hosting the event with us. +[2841.42 --> 2846.44] So this is a 100% collaborative project between Linus Tech Tips and Tech Syndicate. +[2846.76 --> 2849.36] So they're going to have Kane there from their team. +[2849.72 --> 2850.50] They're going to have... +[2850.50 --> 2853.06] How many times should we ask Kane about his glasses on camera? +[2853.12 --> 2853.40] Zero. +[2854.88 --> 2855.50] All right. +[2855.54 --> 2857.08] So the Tech Syndicate team is going to be there. +[2857.30 --> 2859.70] Paul and Kyle from Newegg might be there. +[2859.70 --> 2862.36] And then TLD Today and Tech of Tomorrow. +[2862.52 --> 2866.66] So Jonathan and Elric are like pretty much 100% going to be there. +[2866.74 --> 2873.12] So it's going to be an all-star cast of guys going up and having a LAN at the top of the mountain peak. +[2873.20 --> 2874.18] It's going to be freaking awesome. +[2874.68 --> 2877.82] And Asus is making this possible with their... +[2877.82 --> 2880.76] I don't want to say too much about it because I don't know how much information is out there. +[2880.82 --> 2882.66] But with a really cool gaming notebook. +[2882.96 --> 2883.86] Some people know... +[2883.86 --> 2885.60] I don't know. +[2885.80 --> 2886.00] Yeah. +[2886.06 --> 2888.60] Let's just leave it for now because I'm not 100% sure. +[2888.80 --> 2889.98] So really cool gaming notebook. +[2890.18 --> 2892.00] Intel is in on the action as well. +[2892.08 --> 2894.22] So these will be Core i7 powered gaming notebooks. +[2894.22 --> 2899.28] And finally Corsair is making us hike to the top of a mountain carrying RGB keyboards. +[2899.78 --> 2903.10] We're very thankful to Corsair for being involved in making this event possible. +[2903.60 --> 2907.92] But I really wish I didn't have to carry a mechanical keyboard with an aluminum backplate up a mountain. +[2908.86 --> 2910.54] But it's going to be awesome guys. +[2910.64 --> 2912.62] There's going to be some great content coming out of this. +[2912.70 --> 2913.34] Some collabs. +[2913.48 --> 2914.14] Some vlogs. +[2914.26 --> 2915.52] So be excited for that. +[2915.58 --> 2916.86] And a huge thanks to those guys. +[2917.04 --> 2919.28] Someone in the chat just said, hey guys. +[2919.28 --> 2920.04] Hey guys. +[2920.10 --> 2922.12] Welcome to the world's highest LAN party. +[2923.34 --> 2926.82] This is the first time I would have like formally met Lou or Austin. +[2927.14 --> 2927.40] Oh yeah. +[2927.44 --> 2927.88] At E3 right? +[2927.90 --> 2928.34] Yeah. +[2928.94 --> 2935.02] And I was like semi disappointed that right when I walked up Austin wasn't like, hey guys. +[2935.20 --> 2936.76] I was really hoping that was going to happen. +[2936.88 --> 2938.38] Oh I love trolling him about that. +[2938.44 --> 2938.96] It's so fun. +[2939.36 --> 2940.14] It's so fun. +[2940.14 --> 2948.02] The video that he posted on his channel from CES with him, Dimitri from Hardware Canucks I think it was. +[2948.02 --> 2950.12] Me and NKBHD. +[2950.58 --> 2950.74] Yep. +[2951.50 --> 2955.44] He wanted everyone to introduce themselves and I'm like, hey guys. +[2955.52 --> 2956.52] It's me Linus. +[2956.62 --> 2957.66] I'm Linus Tech Tips. +[2958.14 --> 2959.38] And Austin's just like, no. +[2962.40 --> 2963.12] That's great. +[2963.62 --> 2964.44] He's a good guy. +[2964.50 --> 2965.68] I'm really looking forward to this trip. +[2965.76 --> 2966.72] It's going to be a lot of fun. +[2967.28 --> 2967.70] That was awesome. +[2967.70 --> 2970.32] Did you know that we posted a video on Lou's channel? +[2970.94 --> 2971.12] No. +[2971.50 --> 2975.12] Nick, myself, Brandon, Austin, we're all in a video on Lou's channel. +[2975.16 --> 2975.70] Oh that's cool. +[2975.70 --> 2983.22] It's where we got to check out the possibly a prototype, like they're using it for case manufacturing iPhone 6. +[2983.88 --> 2984.24] Ooh. +[2984.54 --> 2984.78] Yeah. +[2985.08 --> 2988.26] And he was like, he dropped it on the table while already filming. +[2988.52 --> 2989.62] And we're all just like, what? +[2990.26 --> 2990.92] What is this? +[2991.04 --> 2992.82] And he like told us what it was on film. +[2992.86 --> 2994.30] And then we have all first impressions and everything. +[2995.14 --> 2996.06] Lou is such a badass. +[2996.54 --> 2998.74] How does he get this stuff? +[2999.10 --> 3000.26] He is a badass. +[3000.44 --> 3001.66] That's all there is to say about it. +[3001.66 --> 3001.90] Yeah. +[3001.90 --> 3003.26] That's all there is to say. +[3003.38 --> 3003.98] Lou's a badass. +[3004.38 --> 3008.02] I really wanted him to come to the Highlander event. +[3008.22 --> 3009.46] And he really wanted to come. +[3009.82 --> 3011.58] But it just didn't work out this time. +[3012.00 --> 3017.64] But, you know, guys, don't be surprised to see some kind of collaborative effort between Linus Tech Tips and Unbox Therapy. +[3017.72 --> 3021.38] Sometime to kind of make up for that to each other. +[3021.46 --> 3023.56] Because we owe each other to hang out. +[3023.56 --> 3026.40] And I think Lou was pretty disappointed when he messaged me. +[3026.48 --> 3027.68] He was like, hey, you want to get together? +[3028.08 --> 3028.48] Blah, blah, blah. +[3028.58 --> 3029.26] You guys are at E3? +[3029.36 --> 3031.20] I'm like, yeah, I'm not actually there. +[3031.26 --> 3031.96] My guys are there. +[3032.00 --> 3032.60] But I'm not. +[3032.92 --> 3035.56] And he's just like, okay. +[3035.72 --> 3036.06] Okay. +[3037.96 --> 3041.44] And then we ended up going to a dinner and a lunch with him. +[3041.44 --> 3046.20] So, Brandon, Nick, and I have met Lou more times than you have, I think. +[3046.52 --> 3048.08] I have had... +[3048.08 --> 3050.08] I have... +[3050.08 --> 3053.94] I don't know if I've had more meals with him than you, actually. +[3054.26 --> 3055.90] Because I bailed on him at CES. +[3056.00 --> 3059.00] Because I had to go to, like, AMD's party. +[3059.48 --> 3060.38] And they were... +[3060.38 --> 3062.74] They, like, paid our way for that two days. +[3062.86 --> 3064.04] They covered our hotel and everything. +[3064.42 --> 3067.80] And if I didn't show up at that party, I was going to be, like, a really bad person. +[3067.80 --> 3071.42] And I bailed on Lou and Lamar Wilson. +[3071.94 --> 3073.28] And who else was there for that? +[3073.28 --> 3074.68] Yeah, I got to meet Lamar Wilson as well. +[3074.80 --> 3074.96] Yeah. +[3075.76 --> 3076.52] I suck. +[3076.76 --> 3077.50] I'm a bad person. +[3077.76 --> 3081.60] Speaking of things that suck, this product really doesn't make a lot of sense to me. +[3081.70 --> 3082.68] I wouldn't say it sucks. +[3083.04 --> 3084.56] I think it's a cool idea. +[3084.68 --> 3085.98] The original article's on Hexis. +[3086.46 --> 3090.92] And this is Philips' virtually seamless two-in-one monitor. +[3091.10 --> 3092.72] So they showed this off at Computex. +[3092.72 --> 3100.86] And what they've basically done is they've put two ultra-thin bezel 19-inch display panels on a single stand. +[3101.22 --> 3104.34] And they allow them to be rotated up to 22.5 degrees. +[3105.00 --> 3111.74] This won a Computex Gold Award for Outstanding Innovation, which was a little bit confusing to me. +[3111.74 --> 3120.46] Because Samsung had their MDX series, which allowed you to have three or six panels off of a single stand quite a while back. +[3120.74 --> 3125.84] And I'm pretty sure that, you know, monitor stands have been doing this for a while. +[3125.84 --> 3131.16] But the innovation here is the virtual seamlessness between the monitors. +[3131.70 --> 3137.34] The one thing that I really question about it, and sort of why I segued into this with speaking of sucks, +[3137.82 --> 3143.38] is the one thing I question here is what is the value here compared to a 21 by 9 monitor? +[3144.74 --> 3145.58] Which has no bezel. +[3145.58 --> 3147.84] Are these individually able to be rotated? +[3148.04 --> 3148.38] Yes. +[3148.38 --> 3153.22] If you can flip one completely over, I might understand it for office situations. +[3153.78 --> 3154.36] Flip it over? +[3154.60 --> 3155.40] No, not like that. +[3155.56 --> 3157.38] Like you can move them a bit. +[3157.42 --> 3157.94] Oh, not that easy. +[3157.94 --> 3163.04] Yeah, so compared to just a completely flat monitor, I guess it's nice to have them angled in at you a little bit. +[3163.34 --> 3167.66] But for this product to be a success, I would have to see it be very inexpensive. +[3167.66 --> 3177.12] I would have to see it be targeted at business users who are typically buying, you know, whatever that Acer one that we really like with the slim bezel. +[3177.12 --> 3177.58] Yeah, yeah. +[3177.68 --> 3179.92] Who are typically buying something like that and putting them next to each other. +[3179.98 --> 3185.74] If you're going to save me a few millimeters of bezel space, I don't expect to pay a massive premium for it. +[3185.88 --> 3188.42] So that's my sort of take on that, I guess. +[3188.56 --> 3193.46] I've seen, because when I first saw this, which was very, not that long ago, +[3193.60 --> 3195.74] I assumed that you could take one of them and flip it over. +[3195.74 --> 3199.90] Because I've seen that be pretty interesting in office situations, because if someone's sitting on the other side of the desk. +[3199.96 --> 3200.74] Right, and you want to show them something. +[3200.74 --> 3204.30] Puts me on that monitor, flip it over, it'll autocorrect when it gets to the other side and they can see it. +[3204.34 --> 3206.94] And that's actually kind of cool, but then, yeah, I guess not. +[3207.44 --> 3211.50] All right, so moving on to Darfon's Maglev keyboard. +[3212.60 --> 3214.16] You want to cover this? You're the keyboard dork. +[3214.58 --> 3218.38] I'm just, see, but I'm not really that interested. +[3218.82 --> 3221.68] I know. I cover things I'm not interested in all the time. +[3221.70 --> 3222.88] I don't think this is a good idea. +[3222.88 --> 3226.32] Every time I talk, well, then say it's not a good idea. That's what this show is. +[3226.66 --> 3227.60] Because, okay, so... +[3227.60 --> 3231.36] It's the weekly analysis and news show. Analyze. +[3232.20 --> 3233.80] Can't spell analyze without anal. +[3235.40 --> 3237.50] Okay, so it's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[3237.62 --> 3241.40] You can, you can, this will hopefully be able to get a reduction in thickness in notebooks, +[3241.54 --> 3243.22] because you don't need as much space for the keys. +[3243.32 --> 3245.46] Yeah, for like the plastic junk that goes in there. +[3245.46 --> 3249.76] Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they're using magnetic levitation to keep the keys in a raised position, +[3249.96 --> 3252.42] which already sounds potentially not good. +[3253.92 --> 3256.06] And it's, I don't, that's about it. +[3256.18 --> 3262.08] I'm worried about the magnetic levitation thing, because you can throw off magnets with minor impacts. +[3263.08 --> 3264.16] And it's in a laptop. +[3264.38 --> 3264.70] That's true. +[3264.70 --> 3269.24] So, if it bumps around too much and stuff, like a lot of people are throwing SSDs in laptops now, +[3269.32 --> 3272.44] and they're not treating them as carefully as they did when they used to have hard drives in them. +[3272.52 --> 3272.64] Right. +[3272.84 --> 3275.94] Because a big problem with tossing your notebook around used to be the hard drive. +[3276.22 --> 3276.36] Yeah. +[3276.38 --> 3279.10] If you throw magnets in there, impacts could be an issue. +[3279.58 --> 3283.66] Another thing is, the depth is not very high. +[3283.80 --> 3284.68] Which is the whole point. +[3284.94 --> 3285.12] Yeah. +[3285.12 --> 3286.76] They're trying to slim it down more. +[3287.12 --> 3289.74] But the whole point is that that's going to suck, +[3290.14 --> 3294.48] because if you've ever tried typing on a completely flat surface, that's terrible. +[3294.48 --> 3299.20] Speaking of surface, I see this being very applicable for something like Microsoft Surface. +[3299.56 --> 3300.76] Yeah, I could see that. +[3300.88 --> 3304.78] Something like a type cover could benefit from this, where thinness is the priority, +[3305.30 --> 3308.32] not, you know, the tactile feedback. +[3308.68 --> 3308.86] Yeah. +[3309.02 --> 3313.82] But it looks like initial impressions of this are that the travel distance isn't long enough. +[3314.22 --> 3317.72] And then I don't really see there being any benefit on something like a more... +[3317.72 --> 3319.32] Going over just a straight up touch. +[3319.64 --> 3321.08] Like a more normal size notebook. +[3321.36 --> 3321.82] Yeah, yeah. +[3321.88 --> 3322.08] Like that. +[3322.20 --> 3323.54] This is fairly large. +[3323.54 --> 3324.28] Where you have room. +[3324.80 --> 3325.04] Yeah. +[3325.26 --> 3326.18] For a larger design. +[3326.20 --> 3326.64] Or this one. +[3326.74 --> 3327.38] This is... +[3327.38 --> 3328.14] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3328.38 --> 3328.86] There you go. +[3330.76 --> 3331.44] I don't know. +[3331.54 --> 3332.08] It's just... +[3332.08 --> 3333.86] It's going to be a bad typing experience. +[3334.30 --> 3338.50] And if you just went for like a capacitive touch, which is going to feel worse. +[3339.12 --> 3341.86] But if thickness is the priority... +[3341.86 --> 3342.62] I've typed... +[3342.62 --> 3345.88] Did you ever type on the touch cover for the original surface? +[3346.10 --> 3346.70] It was terrible. +[3346.92 --> 3347.14] Yeah. +[3347.14 --> 3348.16] But it was really thin. +[3349.12 --> 3349.56] And I mean... +[3349.56 --> 3350.16] Yeah. +[3351.64 --> 3352.20] Like this... +[3352.20 --> 3353.78] I don't think this is going to be a great experience. +[3353.88 --> 3355.26] Is it going to be enough to be... +[3355.26 --> 3357.34] Because it's probably going to be thicker than a capacitive type. +[3358.44 --> 3358.86] Oh, yeah. +[3358.92 --> 3359.24] For sure. +[3359.34 --> 3359.96] It'll be thicker than that. +[3359.96 --> 3361.10] So you're going thicker. +[3361.42 --> 3366.00] You're sacrificing that thinness for a slightly better experience, which is still not a good +[3366.00 --> 3366.38] experience. +[3366.68 --> 3367.68] Well, you haven't tried it yet. +[3368.10 --> 3368.36] Yeah. +[3368.56 --> 3368.80] Okay. +[3368.80 --> 3369.96] I can... +[3369.96 --> 3372.30] I'm making assumptions, to be 100% honest. +[3372.42 --> 3374.32] But I don't think it's going to be a very good typing experience. +[3374.98 --> 3375.48] I don't know. +[3375.76 --> 3376.34] I'm... +[3376.34 --> 3378.38] It's interesting because it's new technology. +[3378.82 --> 3381.12] Although I don't really think it's going to be a huge thing. +[3381.22 --> 3381.38] Okay. +[3381.80 --> 3382.08] All right. +[3382.10 --> 3384.54] So let's move on to something that I'm extremely butthurt about. +[3384.68 --> 3385.24] This isn't the kind of thing... +[3385.24 --> 3386.00] This is stupid. +[3386.32 --> 3388.84] This isn't the kind of thing that we normally cover on this show. +[3388.84 --> 3391.20] Like, oh, Google changed one feature. +[3391.38 --> 3393.68] Or Apple added one thing to their... +[3393.68 --> 3394.32] You know what? +[3394.78 --> 3396.74] This is so ridiculous. +[3396.74 --> 3403.10] Google is doing away with the ability to add a calendar invitation to an email. +[3403.48 --> 3406.40] I use this every single day. +[3406.58 --> 3407.70] We use this a lot. +[3407.84 --> 3409.24] It is so handy. +[3409.64 --> 3411.74] So in the old days... +[3411.74 --> 3413.52] And like... +[3413.52 --> 3413.94] Okay. +[3414.94 --> 3422.02] In the old days, all you had to do was within an email, click, add calendar invitation. +[3422.02 --> 3427.72] It pops up a little box and anyone else who gets that email can say yes, no, maybe. +[3428.26 --> 3439.46] And it automatically adds that event to your own calendar so that you don't have to go over to your calendar, set it up, find a shareable link to it, go back to your email, and send it to someone. +[3439.46 --> 3445.08] And the reason they're doing away with it is because spammers are using it to send calendar invitations to people. +[3448.20 --> 3448.64] Okay. +[3449.12 --> 3450.08] Why do we care? +[3450.32 --> 3451.20] So what? +[3451.34 --> 3456.56] We're going to cancel email because spammers are using it to send unwanted messages to people? +[3456.58 --> 3458.46] You don't have to accept the invitation. +[3458.46 --> 3460.80] Super dumb. +[3461.10 --> 3462.26] Super not impressed. +[3462.38 --> 3464.02] We actually do use this a lot. +[3464.12 --> 3466.14] And the thing is, it's not just internally. +[3466.28 --> 3471.10] We do use it a lot internally, but I'll get messages from people that we're working with with calendar invites. +[3471.18 --> 3472.34] This is going to get super annoying. +[3473.16 --> 3474.50] Like, why take it out? +[3474.88 --> 3477.66] It's like they don't want me to use Gmail. +[3478.06 --> 3479.94] Google's been doing a lot of weird crap lately. +[3480.48 --> 3481.20] So mad. +[3481.20 --> 3483.12] And it's one of those things where it's like, you know what? +[3483.18 --> 3484.28] We're business users. +[3485.10 --> 3487.94] Like, if you're going to take it away, fine. +[3488.22 --> 3490.90] Take it away from the free accounts or something. +[3491.56 --> 3491.90] And then... +[3491.90 --> 3492.52] Even then, though. +[3492.52 --> 3500.60] If we're talking paid accounts, then I don't think you're going to have an issue with people abusing it because there's not going to be that many to filter through and find out who's abusing it. +[3500.88 --> 3501.08] Right? +[3501.84 --> 3505.30] Whereas business users need this kind of thing. +[3505.30 --> 3509.60] Anything that saves a little bit of time is enough to convince me to change platforms. +[3509.88 --> 3509.98] Yeah. +[3509.98 --> 3516.96] And taking integration away rather than building it up is infuriating. +[3517.36 --> 3519.16] So I'm mad. +[3519.38 --> 3521.48] I'm making sure you guys all know that I'm mad. +[3521.78 --> 3523.90] And I guess that's all I really have to say about it. +[3524.30 --> 3524.52] Yeah. +[3524.72 --> 3525.26] I don't know. +[3525.44 --> 3527.74] There's really not that much else to say about it. +[3528.02 --> 3528.62] Happy topic? +[3528.72 --> 3529.06] SwiftKey? +[3529.60 --> 3529.98] Yeah. +[3530.12 --> 3531.44] SwiftKey's free now, dawg. +[3531.56 --> 3531.86] Yeah. +[3532.02 --> 3532.72] That's awesome. +[3532.72 --> 3535.66] I posted this on Facebook and it was basically like, SwiftKey's free. +[3535.78 --> 3536.60] Go get it, please. +[3537.10 --> 3539.56] This was posted originally on the forum by TopWarGamer. +[3539.56 --> 3541.28] Thank you very much for posting that. +[3542.00 --> 3544.18] Basically, don't feel bad if you paid though. +[3544.38 --> 3545.60] You get 10 free skins. +[3546.60 --> 3549.74] So you get like a 10 pack of cool looking skins for your keyboard. +[3549.84 --> 3551.36] So I went and cashed that in right away. +[3551.74 --> 3559.30] In fact, you know, it's funny because normally I don't really give a crap about skins or free perks or whatever for software that I have. +[3559.68 --> 3560.28] But SwiftKey? +[3560.44 --> 3561.50] I was like, I was on that. +[3561.66 --> 3561.84] Yeah. +[3561.84 --> 3564.92] And everyone at NCIX today, because we've all got SwiftKey. +[3565.42 --> 3566.50] I was like, did you get your packs? +[3566.66 --> 3567.08] They're like, yeah. +[3568.84 --> 3569.56] That's pretty cool. +[3569.62 --> 3570.04] That's pretty cool. +[3570.26 --> 3574.46] And like when I first heard about this, I didn't know about the theme packs and all that kind of stuff. +[3574.50 --> 3576.96] And I was like, damn, I bought that not that long ago. +[3577.10 --> 3577.94] And I was semi-disappointed. +[3578.28 --> 3580.50] And then I talked to this guy and he's like, free theme packs. +[3580.50 --> 3581.56] And I'm like, awesome. +[3582.38 --> 3583.74] They handled it really well. +[3583.82 --> 3584.48] And I mean, you know what? +[3584.52 --> 3588.84] Even if I did pay for it and now it's free, I still don't feel bad about it. +[3588.92 --> 3589.46] I got my money. +[3589.52 --> 3590.14] I like SwiftKey. +[3591.10 --> 3592.12] It was worth it. +[3592.28 --> 3594.80] It tells me how many hundreds of thousands of keystrokes I've saved. +[3595.04 --> 3597.72] You know, there's still something I really wish they would address. +[3597.90 --> 3600.96] And that's when it auto-corrects something and you don't like it. +[3601.00 --> 3603.12] When you backspace, it really needs to revert. +[3603.50 --> 3603.64] Yeah. +[3604.00 --> 3606.00] Like, please, someone at SwiftKey. +[3606.16 --> 3606.62] Feels awkward. +[3606.80 --> 3608.44] Can you please just go fix that? +[3608.64 --> 3608.82] Yeah. +[3608.82 --> 3615.00] That's the one thing that the Google keyboard does way better than SwiftKey. +[3615.08 --> 3618.84] When I got Moto X again, I was on Google keyboard for a little while. +[3619.04 --> 3621.24] And there are a few things like that that I like about it. +[3621.30 --> 3625.78] But overall, after using it for like a week or so, you're like, yeah, I just need SwiftKey again. +[3626.14 --> 3630.04] Every time I do a phone review, like I'm working on the G3 right now. +[3630.18 --> 3633.86] Every time I do a phone review, I try to use that vendor's stock keyboard for a bit. +[3634.34 --> 3636.80] And it's like a fiasco every time. +[3636.90 --> 3638.58] I'm just like, no, no, forget it. +[3638.58 --> 3640.42] Can you leak some thoughts? +[3640.92 --> 3641.58] I'm interested. +[3642.12 --> 3645.06] I actually, I really like the vision. +[3645.12 --> 3645.76] It's off right now. +[3645.86 --> 3646.02] Sorry. +[3646.80 --> 3647.50] Camera's great. +[3647.82 --> 3651.22] I really like the visual style of their latest skin. +[3651.66 --> 3655.42] Some of the navigation of their skin definitely needs some work. +[3655.42 --> 3657.80] I really liked Sony's skin. +[3658.20 --> 3660.00] I really like HTC's. +[3660.34 --> 3662.80] I'm not a huge fan of Samsung's. +[3662.86 --> 3663.02] Yeah. +[3663.14 --> 3668.48] And so far, I would say this falls on the not a fan of it side of being a fan. +[3668.72 --> 3668.88] Yeah. +[3668.88 --> 3670.78] But I haven't spent much time with it. +[3670.84 --> 3672.20] And you can turn some things off. +[3672.26 --> 3673.36] That's what I noticed with the G2. +[3673.44 --> 3676.22] I've only been switched to it for like a day and a half. +[3676.42 --> 3677.62] Oh, because I'm totally not. +[3677.80 --> 3677.94] Actually. +[3677.94 --> 3679.54] And there's definitely some cool stuff already. +[3679.88 --> 3683.56] Like HTC copied the whole double touch to turn the screen on thing. +[3683.68 --> 3683.88] Yeah. +[3683.96 --> 3684.62] That's so nice. +[3684.84 --> 3685.80] Hardcore copied it. +[3686.02 --> 3690.38] Well, LG upped the ante this time because now you can do, you can do a code. +[3691.32 --> 3695.30] So instead of, because double, double tapping, I find I accidentally activate it all the time. +[3695.44 --> 3699.90] Whereas now you can, you can knock a code into the phone and it'll only unlock if you +[3699.90 --> 3700.58] do it a specific way. +[3700.62 --> 3701.42] I think that's really cool. +[3701.46 --> 3702.16] Pretty cool. +[3702.42 --> 3703.24] I'm down with that. +[3703.36 --> 3706.16] So there's little stuff that I really like so far. +[3706.62 --> 3708.52] But guys, stay tuned for the full review. +[3708.74 --> 3712.02] Also, I've got a, I'm going to be working on the pad phone soon. +[3712.26 --> 3712.68] Oh, interesting. +[3712.68 --> 3715.36] Pad phone X. So that's that phone tablet hybrid thing. +[3715.40 --> 3716.14] You can pull that out of the box. +[3716.24 --> 3717.74] What are your thoughts? +[3717.92 --> 3719.80] Because I'm a huge fan of the back buttons. +[3719.86 --> 3721.26] But what are your thoughts on the back buttons? +[3721.34 --> 3721.80] Back buttons. +[3721.96 --> 3722.92] I like them so far. +[3723.02 --> 3725.92] It's still very disconcerting because I've only been switched to it for a little while. +[3726.02 --> 3726.18] Yeah. +[3726.34 --> 3726.48] Yeah. +[3726.60 --> 3727.92] But this is the coolest thing about it. +[3728.20 --> 3728.68] Check this out. +[3728.78 --> 3730.84] I was going to say, is that a North American phone? +[3731.14 --> 3732.40] Blast from the past, guys. +[3735.34 --> 3735.82] Antennas. +[3735.96 --> 3737.08] Well, is that a North American phone? +[3737.16 --> 3737.70] No, it's not. +[3737.70 --> 3737.84] Yeah. +[3737.96 --> 3738.94] It's a Korean phone. +[3739.04 --> 3739.58] It's for TV. +[3739.78 --> 3739.94] Yeah. +[3740.08 --> 3742.04] But I got a kick out of it. +[3742.04 --> 3746.48] You know, it's funny because I don't understand why they don't just put it on the North American model. +[3746.60 --> 3749.58] Because sometimes your reception is a little bit borderline. +[3749.86 --> 3753.10] And I can't imagine it would hurt to have an external antenna. +[3753.32 --> 3753.56] Nope. +[3754.12 --> 3756.46] Like, I don't know why they're afraid to put it on. +[3756.52 --> 3757.66] People don't have to take it out. +[3758.40 --> 3759.16] Just have it on there. +[3759.24 --> 3760.56] And it's so small and light. +[3760.56 --> 3763.18] Anyway, this is the Padphone X. +[3763.56 --> 3768.10] Not that impressed with the somewhat bulkiness of it so far. +[3769.78 --> 3774.38] Am that impressed with the seamlessness of turning it into a tablet. +[3774.96 --> 3776.28] And it's not powered on right now. +[3776.40 --> 3776.48] Oh, okay. +[3776.48 --> 3776.62] Yeah. +[3776.68 --> 3778.46] With the seamlessness of turning it into a tablet. +[3778.76 --> 3783.30] And with the fact that it's going to be priced similarly to what would normally just be a standard phone. +[3783.42 --> 3785.48] So stay tuned for that review as well. +[3785.86 --> 3793.14] This one, between the fact that it has wireless charging and the fact that it converts to a tablet, may win me over from the One 8. +[3793.76 --> 3794.38] So we'll see. +[3795.04 --> 3797.34] It's not annoying when you hold it this way to have the phone. +[3797.46 --> 3801.06] Because you can actually use the bottom of the phone thing to, like, hold on to the tablet. +[3801.20 --> 3802.48] And it's got a solid hardware spec. +[3802.96 --> 3805.24] So it may win me over. +[3805.32 --> 3805.64] We'll see. +[3805.82 --> 3806.18] Interesting. +[3806.38 --> 3807.46] No guarantees on that one. +[3809.14 --> 3809.84] All right. +[3809.98 --> 3813.74] Oh, speaking of Nintendo, this was originally posted on the forum by Rafi. +[3814.14 --> 3816.26] And it's not actually related to Nintendo. +[3816.26 --> 3819.60] But it's Microsoft trying to take feedback from their users. +[3819.62 --> 3819.86] Oh, yeah. +[3820.54 --> 3824.16] Unfortunately, and I'm not going to generalize about Xbox users. +[3824.16 --> 3829.12] But unfortunately, some of the top voted ideas are just stupid. +[3829.68 --> 3835.96] But basically, the site, xbox.uservoice.com, allows you to go and suggest things to the Xbox team. +[3836.30 --> 3837.88] Vote on other people's suggestions. +[3838.82 --> 3842.80] And just generally, Microsoft, I guess they've just kind of given up. +[3842.90 --> 3844.58] They're like, we don't know what to do. +[3844.76 --> 3846.44] So help us help you. +[3846.72 --> 3847.58] And I'm glad. +[3847.80 --> 3849.08] That's the right way to do it. +[3849.92 --> 3850.94] Good job, Microsoft. +[3851.16 --> 3853.96] So I just want to give them a big thumbs up because I think we were beating them up a little bit. +[3853.96 --> 3856.58] What are some of the high-rated, terrible comments? +[3856.74 --> 3859.96] Oh, this one with like 5,000 thumbs up is... +[3859.96 --> 3863.14] Oh, can we get... +[3863.14 --> 3866.42] We want Xbox 360 game backwards compatibility. +[3867.42 --> 3871.46] And that's like the top-up voted suggestion with like 5,000 thumbs up. +[3871.48 --> 3875.24] And I'm just kind of sitting here going like, are you stupid? +[3875.74 --> 3877.60] Like, do you really think Microsoft didn't think of that? +[3878.28 --> 3881.24] If that was a possibility, like, do you think they didn't think of that? +[3881.24 --> 3885.24] We're talking emulating a console that is... +[3885.76 --> 3892.56] Emulating a console on a completely different architecture that's not, you know, two or three generations ago. +[3893.94 --> 3896.08] It's a stupid suggestion. +[3896.08 --> 3901.02] Like, the games would have to be ported straight up. +[3901.60 --> 3904.90] And then you could make them available in the arcade or something. +[3905.40 --> 3913.64] And is Microsoft really going to run around and, you know, ask every game developer to port all their games and put them in the marketplace? +[3913.88 --> 3914.16] No! +[3914.78 --> 3917.44] It's like, yeah, I get that that's what you want. +[3917.58 --> 3919.56] But you have to focus on things that are real. +[3919.56 --> 3925.16] I mean, backwards compatibility for gaming consoles was never really a thing. +[3925.86 --> 3927.36] It happened, what, once? +[3928.48 --> 3931.12] With the PS2 being backwards compatible with the PS1. +[3931.38 --> 3933.76] The PS3 had it initially, but then it went away. +[3933.96 --> 3936.50] Can you play Xbox games on Xbox 360? +[3938.14 --> 3938.52] Some. +[3939.16 --> 3940.66] I think it was a lot. +[3940.78 --> 3942.34] It was a scattershot thing, though. +[3942.40 --> 3942.86] Yeah, it was. +[3943.12 --> 3945.16] So, you go back before. +[3945.16 --> 3951.32] It's not like the SNES could play NES games until, like, way later and you got this weird cartridge. +[3952.02 --> 3952.22] Sorry? +[3952.48 --> 3953.70] The adapter cartridge thing? +[3953.84 --> 3955.50] So, you could get, like, weird adapter cartridges. +[3955.64 --> 3957.28] But even then, not all the games worked. +[3957.46 --> 3962.94] Like, it was, like, it's never really been, like, yes, this is a thing. +[3963.04 --> 3964.44] We're 100% on board this. +[3964.52 --> 3967.72] You're going to be able to play all your old games on your new consoles. +[3967.96 --> 3970.14] You can play Wii games on Wii U as well. +[3970.44 --> 3971.60] Yes, you can. +[3971.60 --> 3975.70] But, I'm just saying, it's not something that is all over the place. +[3976.26 --> 3977.72] People are saying GameCube games on Wii? +[3978.04 --> 3978.60] I've... +[3978.60 --> 3980.92] I didn't know you could do that. +[3981.00 --> 3981.88] I don't know how you did that. +[3981.98 --> 3983.58] Yeah, it's the small disks. +[3984.08 --> 3985.92] You just load them in the same way. +[3986.44 --> 3989.00] Yeah, you just say, yep, like, it happens. +[3989.50 --> 3990.36] I'm just saying, it's... +[3990.36 --> 3990.74] No, I hear you. +[3990.76 --> 3992.98] Yeah, I'm just trying to give examples because people are freaking out of the chat. +[3992.98 --> 3995.10] It's something where it's not... +[3995.10 --> 3999.36] If it's not fundamentally built into it or the architecture isn't somehow similar, it's +[3999.36 --> 4000.08] just not going to happen. +[4000.20 --> 4003.02] I mean, the Wii was a lot more powerful than the GameCube, which helps a lot. +[4003.54 --> 4003.98] The... +[4003.98 --> 4009.52] Something like the Super Nintendo was so much more powerful than the NES that we're talking +[4009.52 --> 4014.42] about using all that extra power to emulate something or however it needs to be implemented. +[4014.54 --> 4019.64] With the Xbox One versus the Xbox 360, they're not similar enough and the power difference +[4019.64 --> 4020.38] is not enough. +[4020.38 --> 4024.32] I mean, even PCs are having trouble emulating Xbox 360 games. +[4024.78 --> 4026.06] That's very difficult. +[4026.88 --> 4027.82] Emulation's weird. +[4028.12 --> 4028.24] Yeah. +[4028.94 --> 4029.70] Emulation's weird. +[4029.98 --> 4035.88] And the truth of the matter is that even someone like Microsoft has to ultimately emulate an +[4035.88 --> 4036.50] older console. +[4037.42 --> 4041.58] Unless they do what, you know, Sony did with the early PS3s where they're just putting an +[4041.58 --> 4042.34] emotion chip in it. +[4043.14 --> 4047.32] And we saw how much that cost and how they bailed on that, like, what was it, months later? +[4047.42 --> 4047.78] Pretty hard, yeah. +[4047.78 --> 4048.04] Yeah. +[4048.04 --> 4048.28] Yeah. +[4048.64 --> 4051.94] Those early PlayStation 3s, though, were worth a lot of money. +[4051.96 --> 4055.14] Because you can install Linux on them and you can run them as, like, servers and stuff. +[4055.30 --> 4055.42] Yeah. +[4055.48 --> 4059.16] And you can emulate old games and, like, yeah, they're actually legitimately valuable. +[4059.46 --> 4061.50] People are like, backwards compatibility is just a number. +[4061.72 --> 4066.18] And I've got people in the Twitch chat pointing out that the PC has excellent backwards compatibility. +[4066.88 --> 4067.78] Yes, it does. +[4067.88 --> 4069.14] It's amazing backwards compatibility. +[4069.14 --> 4071.70] Whereas consoles, it's just, like, random. +[4072.12 --> 4074.06] It's like, whoa. +[4075.24 --> 4077.10] Try putting a NES cartridge into a Wii U. +[4078.26 --> 4082.88] Another thing, Microsoft announcement that I don't know if is in the doc is the Halo Master +[4082.88 --> 4083.44] Chief edition. +[4084.16 --> 4084.90] Did you hear about that at all? +[4086.52 --> 4087.88] Halo Master, I don't think it's in the doc. +[4088.14 --> 4088.58] Oh, yeah. +[4088.70 --> 4089.10] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4089.10 --> 4089.74] I heard about that. +[4089.74 --> 4091.96] So we're getting a re-release tab. +[4092.04 --> 4094.32] What, Halos 1, 2, 3, and 4? +[4094.48 --> 4095.82] The numbered ones with Master Chief in it. +[4095.88 --> 4097.86] Not the offshoots like ODST or Reach. +[4098.14 --> 4098.40] Right. +[4099.24 --> 4101.26] It's interesting. +[4101.68 --> 4103.12] They're doing some cool things with it. +[4103.22 --> 4105.80] Like, the remastered screenshots actually look really good. +[4106.24 --> 4106.42] Right. +[4106.42 --> 4107.52] They're not changing the mechanics. +[4107.72 --> 4109.10] And Halo 2 multiplayer is coming back. +[4109.22 --> 4110.18] Halo 2 multiplayer is coming back. +[4110.26 --> 4113.26] Halo 2 1 multiplayer will exist on consoles. +[4113.86 --> 4118.28] We have to specify on consoles because we were playing that, like, last week on PC. +[4118.28 --> 4120.68] But it will exist on consoles. +[4120.78 --> 4121.90] Yay, PC backwards compatibility. +[4123.42 --> 4125.00] It actually runs better. +[4125.52 --> 4127.20] Yeah, it really does. +[4127.52 --> 4129.76] And they're not going to, like, quote-unquote fix things. +[4129.90 --> 4133.28] So, like, the pistol in Halo 1 is still going to be massively overpowered, which is great. +[4133.70 --> 4136.26] They'll have an interesting, they'll have a few interesting matchmaking modes. +[4136.44 --> 4137.74] Like, one where it's just all random. +[4138.08 --> 4139.08] So it'll just queue you. +[4139.36 --> 4145.36] And it'll, like, put your lobby and be like, okay, you're going to play Halo 2 on this map. +[4145.64 --> 4145.96] Nice. +[4145.96 --> 4147.36] And it'll just launch that game. +[4147.48 --> 4149.44] And it can bounce around in between the games really well. +[4149.52 --> 4153.60] Apparently it's supposed to have seamless loading between games if you're going through campaign. +[4154.22 --> 4157.24] So if you finish Halo 1, it'll just be like, whoop, you're now on first mention Halo 2. +[4157.48 --> 4157.76] Nice. +[4157.82 --> 4158.68] And it just flows right through. +[4158.98 --> 4159.26] Nice. +[4159.34 --> 4160.56] There's some interesting things. +[4160.56 --> 4167.52] So just like when Arrested Development relaunched with all the episodes at once and nobody slept. +[4168.30 --> 4169.62] It's going to be about like that, I guess. +[4169.86 --> 4170.52] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4170.66 --> 4173.32] I think it would be interesting to play through all the campaigns and stuff back to back. +[4173.42 --> 4176.32] But, like, I don't see this selling Xbox Ones either. +[4177.68 --> 4178.18] I do. +[4178.76 --> 4179.08] Yeah? +[4179.52 --> 4179.88] 100%. +[4179.88 --> 4180.20] Yeah. +[4180.34 --> 4182.30] I wouldn't buy an Xbox One for it, personally. +[4182.74 --> 4186.32] Because if I had all these games, I could just go back and play them. +[4186.40 --> 4187.88] And the remastered thing is cool. +[4189.32 --> 4189.68] Ugh. +[4189.86 --> 4190.46] Being able to play online would be cool. +[4190.46 --> 4192.40] You've bought remastered games before. +[4192.70 --> 4195.08] Yeah, but I haven't bought a console to buy the remastered games. +[4195.86 --> 4196.58] You know what I mean? +[4196.70 --> 4197.98] I have definitely bought remastered games. +[4198.06 --> 4199.30] I actually do like remastered games. +[4199.44 --> 4200.04] I have no... +[4200.04 --> 4202.16] I actually really like that they remastered Halo 1 and 2. +[4202.28 --> 4203.34] I've bought remastered games. +[4203.60 --> 4203.78] Yeah. +[4203.98 --> 4204.12] Yeah. +[4204.34 --> 4208.20] The only thing that I could actually see this selling a console for is, like, Halo 2 multiplayer. +[4208.80 --> 4211.06] Because remember how big of a deal that was when they closed that down? +[4211.22 --> 4211.40] Yep. +[4211.64 --> 4217.80] The guys that were, like, refusing to shut down their consoles and people were, like, shipping them fans and stuff to keep their consoles running? +[4218.02 --> 4219.08] Like, yeah. +[4219.32 --> 4223.26] Shutting down the Halo 2 multiplayer servers was not a very clean-cut decision. +[4223.84 --> 4225.78] So I think people are going to be stoked that those are back. +[4226.30 --> 4228.38] I'd love to see them do this bundle on the PC. +[4228.38 --> 4233.64] If they ask for $60, $75 for it on the PC, I'll pay for it. +[4233.72 --> 4234.22] I don't care. +[4234.52 --> 4234.84] 100%. +[4234.84 --> 4235.84] Yeah, that would be awesome. +[4235.92 --> 4236.70] Preferably on Steam. +[4237.00 --> 4237.54] That would be great. +[4237.68 --> 4237.84] Yep. +[4238.54 --> 4239.84] Now we're games for Windows Live. +[4240.08 --> 4240.30] Woo! +[4240.38 --> 4240.68] Woo! +[4241.94 --> 4243.50] It's better and better all the time. +[4243.80 --> 4244.54] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4244.94 --> 4247.76] So, yeah, someone just said Luke underestimates the nostalgia of Halo 2 multiplayer. +[4247.94 --> 4249.56] Yeah, I just had that realization. +[4250.40 --> 4250.56] Yeah. +[4250.64 --> 4251.78] It'll probably sell consoles. +[4251.84 --> 4252.56] This will sell consoles. +[4252.56 --> 4253.44] Halo 2 multiplayer was a really... +[4253.44 --> 4255.38] I played Halo 2 multiplayer so much. +[4256.16 --> 4256.56] Ridiculous. +[4256.96 --> 4257.32] So, yeah. +[4257.54 --> 4257.86] Yeah. +[4258.38 --> 4259.36] Good point. +[4259.62 --> 4263.72] Speaking of new-gen consoles, let's talk old-gen consoles for a second. +[4264.18 --> 4272.18] I don't even know if this is really news, but apparently Titanfall runs at 600p at 46 FPS on the Xbox 360. +[4272.98 --> 4278.82] So someone used a capture device in order to find out how many frames it was actually rendering. +[4279.22 --> 4280.34] So I thought that was kind of interesting. +[4280.34 --> 4287.38] I was wondering it would be kind of an interesting setup, but it would be kind of fun to benchmark consoles every once in a while. +[4287.86 --> 4289.26] Yeah, because you can feel them chug. +[4289.32 --> 4291.40] You can feel them not run at 30 or 60 FPS at times. +[4291.40 --> 4292.46] Yeah, because they make these claims. +[4292.54 --> 4295.10] And I'm like, well, it's not going to be a constant FPS anyways. +[4295.10 --> 4302.98] So when you're claiming this craptastic resolution and craptastic FPS, is that when you're staring at the floor? +[4303.56 --> 4304.34] Because who knows? +[4304.44 --> 4306.76] No, in theory, that's the lowest dip. +[4307.14 --> 4307.42] Right. +[4307.50 --> 4307.96] In theory. +[4307.96 --> 4308.92] There's no way. +[4309.96 --> 4310.18] All right. +[4310.22 --> 4313.42] So this was originally posted on the forum by DazedCobra42. +[4314.06 --> 4317.56] And this is something that some people think is no big deal. +[4317.84 --> 4319.60] Other people think is a huge deal. +[4319.60 --> 4327.48] And that is that Comcast is converting 50,000 home routers in Houston into public Wi-Fi hotspots. +[4328.16 --> 4336.10] So basically, it'll only work if you're using your Comcast wireless router modem combo unit. +[4336.10 --> 4343.96] And whoever's accessing your router will not be able to use up your data plan or see your home network. +[4343.96 --> 4350.24] But the idea is they want to turn it into citywide Wi-Fi hotspots for their customers. +[4351.52 --> 4353.90] Apparently, this is already a thing in other countries. +[4354.92 --> 4360.76] And I've seen posts in the thread on our forum where people are pretty positive about the idea and how it works. +[4360.76 --> 4382.22] But one drawback that I can see is that unless they're somehow managing the connection with magic to ensure that my ping times in my game don't get increased because someone is walking by, you know, torrenting on the sidewalk outside of my house. +[4382.22 --> 4393.26] If they can find a way that that doesn't happen and they can't access my network and they can't utilize any of my monthly bandwidth limitation, then I guess I don't care. +[4393.70 --> 4395.00] I don't think any of those things are going to happen. +[4395.12 --> 4395.94] And you can opt out. +[4396.90 --> 4397.34] Okay. +[4397.64 --> 4398.22] You can opt out. +[4398.22 --> 4399.64] A lot of people aren't going to know this is a thing. +[4399.72 --> 4402.06] But most people won't notice. +[4402.24 --> 4402.50] Yeah. +[4402.86 --> 4403.42] At all. +[4404.08 --> 4405.58] So, um. +[4405.58 --> 4406.78] This is super dumb. +[4408.06 --> 4410.84] Because, like, yeah, okay, it's not going to affect your bill. +[4411.62 --> 4411.86] Yeah. +[4412.18 --> 4413.82] But it's going to affect your availability. +[4414.26 --> 4415.22] But think about this. +[4415.42 --> 4415.68] Okay. +[4415.76 --> 4419.12] So, as a Shaw customer or a Telus customer or whatever you have at your place. +[4419.80 --> 4420.62] You're going to Telus, right? +[4421.08 --> 4421.30] Yeah. +[4421.46 --> 4421.66] Okay. +[4422.00 --> 4428.20] So, as a Telus customer, if you could, you know, let's, okay, here, great example. +[4428.32 --> 4432.36] Let's say E3 wasn't in, let's say it wasn't in LA. +[4432.68 --> 4433.62] Let's say it was in Toronto. +[4433.62 --> 4436.52] So, and, or, okay, I guess Toronto's a bad example. +[4436.62 --> 4437.10] They don't have Telus. +[4437.18 --> 4437.62] Okay, whatever. +[4437.98 --> 4439.66] The point is, what if E3 was in Vancouver? +[4439.82 --> 4440.80] So, you're out of your house. +[4441.00 --> 4442.04] You want to upload a video. +[4442.70 --> 4444.22] And public Wi-Fi is crap. +[4444.42 --> 4444.92] So, it was. +[4445.86 --> 4446.06] What? +[4446.10 --> 4446.30] I'm sorry? +[4446.48 --> 4446.92] It was. +[4446.98 --> 4447.12] Yes. +[4447.12 --> 4447.96] Public Wi-Fi was 100%. +[4447.96 --> 4449.44] So, let's say public Wi-Fi was crap. +[4449.62 --> 4450.90] Let's say you're a Telus customer. +[4451.60 --> 4453.80] And all you have to do is walk down the street. +[4453.80 --> 4456.30] Wait to find another house that has a Telus customer in it. +[4456.52 --> 4457.08] Beep, beep, boop. +[4457.20 --> 4458.66] And you've got a solid internet connection. +[4458.84 --> 4461.94] Where I can upload videos and destroy their connection? +[4462.18 --> 4462.46] Okay. +[4462.70 --> 4463.12] I didn't. +[4463.22 --> 4463.60] Like, destroy. +[4463.62 --> 4463.98] Destroy. +[4464.16 --> 4464.72] Hold on. +[4464.80 --> 4470.60] I said, how would you feel about being the person who has access to Wi-Fi hotspots everywhere? +[4470.60 --> 4475.02] I would feel good and I would destroy that kid's internet who's just trying to play a video +[4475.02 --> 4475.32] game. +[4475.44 --> 4477.80] Because that's why the public Wi-Fi there was terrible. +[4478.42 --> 4481.70] Everyone was just trying to upload stuff the whole time and it was bad. +[4481.70 --> 4486.60] I have a screenshot on Twitter of our estimated upload time 20,000 minutes from our hotel. +[4487.20 --> 4490.06] Because the internet was just like, nope. +[4490.06 --> 4491.20] So, yeah. +[4491.20 --> 4491.22] So, yeah. +[4491.44 --> 4494.52] Your bill isn't going to be worse. +[4494.62 --> 4497.24] The integrity of your data is probably not going to be harmed. +[4497.54 --> 4501.34] The availability of things online is probably going to have an issue. +[4501.66 --> 4503.50] And that's not okay, in my opinion. +[4503.50 --> 4507.72] So, Steph says, the Comcast thing has been around in Belgium for almost a decade. +[4507.92 --> 4510.54] It has a four-user limitation and shaped traffic. +[4511.42 --> 4511.74] Okay. +[4511.88 --> 4513.10] Well, those are things I didn't know about. +[4513.42 --> 4513.62] Okay. +[4513.68 --> 4514.74] But this is in Belgium. +[4514.84 --> 4515.68] This is not Comcast. +[4515.78 --> 4517.72] Comcast might implement it however they implement it. +[4517.80 --> 4520.10] But there's a precedent for this. +[4520.10 --> 4522.14] Oh, and apparently it's nationwide. +[4522.88 --> 4524.70] Currently available for business class customers. +[4524.86 --> 4525.68] Now it's going to residential. +[4525.90 --> 4526.44] So, there you go. +[4526.78 --> 4527.18] Interesting. +[4528.04 --> 4531.88] I mean, as long as it doesn't affect it, I am pretty happy about it. +[4531.88 --> 4537.50] If I'm on one of these things and it's available to me and I'm ever near someone's house, I'm just going to wreck their connection. +[4537.74 --> 4541.90] Unless it's shaped or throttled so that you can't destroy it too bad. +[4541.90 --> 4543.04] It's not going to be that helpful. +[4544.32 --> 4546.90] Unless all you need to do is, like, you know, find a... +[4547.48 --> 4550.54] But then you should be using your cell phone if you're just looking up a map or whatever. +[4550.66 --> 4550.92] Okay. +[4550.92 --> 4557.40] Well, let's say your cell phone's out of battery, but you happen to have your laptop... +[4557.40 --> 4558.32] And no USB cables. +[4558.54 --> 4559.38] And no USB... +[4559.38 --> 4559.86] No... +[4559.86 --> 4560.38] Yes. +[4560.48 --> 4561.62] And no USB cables. +[4561.84 --> 4562.78] And no battery banks. +[4563.00 --> 4563.26] Whatever. +[4563.40 --> 4563.72] Screw you. +[4566.06 --> 4567.36] Let's do a Twitter blitz. +[4567.50 --> 4568.48] Let's do a Twitter blitz. +[4568.56 --> 4571.06] Let's let you guys tell us what you think of this. +[4571.06 --> 4576.46] Are you okay with your ISP allowing other people to use your connection as long as... +[4576.46 --> 4576.98] And this is... +[4576.98 --> 4577.70] I guess this is another thing. +[4577.70 --> 4580.98] They should use their quibillions of dollars and just set up properly... +[4580.98 --> 4581.46] Public Wi-Fi. +[4581.46 --> 4581.70] Okay. +[4581.78 --> 4583.24] This is another thing that really bothers me. +[4583.32 --> 4587.56] Remember when that story broke about the back doors that were built into all these routers? +[4588.24 --> 4588.54] So... +[4588.54 --> 4589.82] Like, they're saying the integrity thing. +[4589.90 --> 4590.70] Well, they're not going to be able to see their network. +[4590.80 --> 4591.66] Someone's going to figure it out. +[4592.06 --> 4596.00] So if it was bulletproof, then it's fine. +[4596.00 --> 4601.40] Like, if we were talking, like, two separate, you know, firmware... +[4602.08 --> 4603.66] Firmwares running on the... +[4603.66 --> 4606.30] On, like, two separate storage devices on the router. +[4606.62 --> 4606.92] Like... +[4606.92 --> 4607.64] And they're, like, sharing... +[4607.64 --> 4608.78] And, like, two ins. +[4608.90 --> 4613.30] Sharing physical resources, but otherwise a completely different set of software. +[4613.56 --> 4615.22] Then I'm like, yeah, okay, whatever. +[4615.32 --> 4615.54] Fine. +[4615.60 --> 4616.14] Go for it. +[4616.34 --> 4620.70] If we're talking about somehow this can be exploited, I'm a little bit uncomfortable. +[4620.70 --> 4620.94] I'm sure... +[4620.94 --> 4623.32] And there's got to be something in terms of data sniffing. +[4623.32 --> 4625.66] Because you're going on the same line. +[4625.90 --> 4626.44] I don't know. +[4626.64 --> 4628.26] I don't know enough about that. +[4628.86 --> 4631.80] But when you're on a different network... +[4631.80 --> 4632.28] Because I have to... +[4632.28 --> 4633.92] I'm not sure how they're splitting it. +[4634.58 --> 4635.58] Which is part of the problem. +[4636.48 --> 4637.78] So Stefan says... +[4637.78 --> 4642.08] Stefan says, connection is entirely separated from yours. +[4642.52 --> 4644.30] Data plan-wise, also bandwidth. +[4644.52 --> 4646.32] It's not necessarily... +[4647.32 --> 4650.32] Like, I don't know if they can necessarily do that. +[4651.38 --> 4652.98] Not probably enough. +[4653.32 --> 4653.82] Right. +[4654.32 --> 4655.74] Because, like, they're shaping it or whatever. +[4655.88 --> 4660.40] But is it giving 100% priority to the person in the house? +[4661.96 --> 4662.36] 100%? +[4662.66 --> 4666.64] Because we utilize our data connection here at Linus Media Group a lot. +[4667.00 --> 4671.10] So if this happened to our router and we somehow didn't turn off the option thing... +[4671.10 --> 4673.08] If we didn't opt out, we would instantly opt out. +[4673.42 --> 4679.34] But if we didn't, we would possibly have issues if they had any percentage of the connection. +[4679.86 --> 4680.14] Right. +[4680.26 --> 4681.80] Because we're in Canada. +[4681.88 --> 4682.78] We don't have that great of internet. +[4683.04 --> 4685.84] And we really utilize our internet connection. +[4686.22 --> 4686.84] That's another thing. +[4686.84 --> 4691.76] If you have, like, a crazy pipe going to that house, maybe it's not as big of a deal. +[4691.76 --> 4692.44] Yeah. +[4693.94 --> 4698.58] Alican is saying that on Tech Syndicate they were talking about Comcast using your electricity for this. +[4699.40 --> 4700.66] Yeah, I get it. +[4700.74 --> 4701.38] But you're... +[4701.38 --> 4703.86] It seems pretty negligible. +[4704.06 --> 4704.24] Yeah. +[4704.24 --> 4705.64] I mean, yeah. +[4706.12 --> 4706.54] They are. +[4706.62 --> 4708.10] It's not right and it's not... +[4708.10 --> 4708.50] It's not... +[4708.50 --> 4709.02] It's not right. +[4709.90 --> 4713.46] But it's not the kind of thing that I would probably lodge a complaint with my, you know, +[4713.50 --> 4714.88] local representative about. +[4715.06 --> 4715.28] Yeah. +[4718.22 --> 4718.62] Okay. +[4718.76 --> 4718.94] Wow. +[4718.98 --> 4720.66] We've got 36 responses now. +[4720.78 --> 4720.98] Oop. +[4721.10 --> 4721.86] But... +[4721.86 --> 4722.98] But... +[4722.98 --> 4724.18] Just a public router. +[4724.32 --> 4724.54] Yeah. +[4724.70 --> 4725.08] Exactly. +[4725.36 --> 4727.48] They should be doing this infrastructure on their own. +[4727.56 --> 4728.84] They shouldn't be utilizing all their customers. +[4729.14 --> 4729.40] Right. +[4730.08 --> 4731.50] Nothing is bulletproof when it comes to networking. +[4731.72 --> 4732.04] Again. +[4732.50 --> 4733.64] I don't know how you're going to do it. +[4733.64 --> 4735.12] But someone's going to figure out some way. +[4735.24 --> 4735.48] Wait. +[4735.62 --> 4736.56] Where'd you get that? +[4736.68 --> 4737.16] Up a little bit. +[4737.18 --> 4737.40] Oh, yeah. +[4737.44 --> 4738.88] Nothing is bulletproof when it comes to networking. +[4738.94 --> 4739.14] Yep. +[4739.14 --> 4740.14] That's a very important point. +[4740.52 --> 4743.16] Sam says, ISPs need to become less intrusive. +[4743.26 --> 4744.74] Give us a good service and shut up. +[4744.84 --> 4747.50] We don't get the water company calling us offering better water. +[4747.56 --> 4748.34] You know what, Sam? +[4749.26 --> 4751.60] That is a retweet right there. +[4751.60 --> 4759.02] That is the first time we have ever taken something on the WAN show and it has been so bang on that we have to tweet it immediately. +[4759.24 --> 4759.92] That was really good. +[4761.08 --> 4762.60] They need to act like utility companies. +[4762.60 --> 4764.92] He's in water and his last name is really close to fluoride. +[4767.68 --> 4768.44] No, I don't care. +[4768.64 --> 4769.68] I'm not looking at it. +[4769.88 --> 4769.90] No. +[4770.14 --> 4770.62] Fine. +[4771.86 --> 4772.96] That's not that close to fluoride. +[4772.96 --> 4773.32] It's not. +[4773.32 --> 4774.36] It's not close at all. +[4774.42 --> 4775.16] I thought it was closer. +[4775.16 --> 4778.44] Anyways. +[4780.94 --> 4783.56] You should test your XPS 12 for image burn-in issue. +[4783.68 --> 4787.20] The image burn-in issue is terrible on my XPS 12. +[4787.70 --> 4789.36] Like, super bad. +[4789.56 --> 4790.86] Like, I can see my desktop. +[4791.42 --> 4793.32] And I am in metro mode. +[4793.32 --> 4795.30] So, yes, I'm aware of the issue. +[4796.04 --> 4796.98] It's terrible. +[4797.48 --> 4800.82] It doesn't really affect me using the computer and I still do like it. +[4801.36 --> 4805.12] Comcast may be able to increase your bandwidth if you're sharing a connection, but I'm against this. +[4805.22 --> 4805.96] Security breach imminent. +[4806.08 --> 4806.72] Security breach imminent. +[4806.72 --> 4808.96] No, it's mine. +[4809.28 --> 4813.22] If you're giving me a monthly discount to offer up my connection to others. +[4813.30 --> 4813.90] Now we're talking. +[4814.14 --> 4815.06] That's a good point, Nathaniel. +[4815.10 --> 4815.60] And I can see. +[4815.72 --> 4818.08] But they're going to be like, you get 50 cents. +[4818.52 --> 4819.20] Or nothing. +[4819.22 --> 4820.12] Or lower. +[4820.26 --> 4820.74] Yeah, nothing. +[4821.88 --> 4823.64] They have their own hotspot infrastructure. +[4824.08 --> 4824.38] Yep. +[4824.98 --> 4825.94] Which is what they should be doing. +[4826.06 --> 4827.86] Tom asks, how is your experience with the Pebble Steel going? +[4828.34 --> 4829.34] Really like the idea. +[4829.34 --> 4835.26] It is much nicer looking, in my opinion, than the old Pebble that I had. +[4835.36 --> 4836.82] You did order one in bright orange. +[4837.62 --> 4841.64] Yeah, but it was more about the bulk and the plasticiness. +[4841.96 --> 4845.16] This has a glass front panel, which makes a big difference to readability, +[4845.30 --> 4847.46] especially now that I've scratched the heck out of the plastic one. +[4848.28 --> 4851.84] And I think it just looks way more professional, way more stylish. +[4852.16 --> 4853.48] I'm very pleased so far. +[4854.50 --> 4857.50] Using the hotspot to download torrents and not using my monthly cap. +[4857.58 --> 4857.68] Yay. +[4857.68 --> 4858.18] You know what? +[4858.22 --> 4858.80] I've got to wonder. +[4858.80 --> 4865.10] Because Shaw has public hotspots, and I wonder if it counts towards your cap. +[4865.30 --> 4866.62] Because you have to log into them. +[4866.76 --> 4869.04] And dodging torrent stuff. +[4869.90 --> 4873.44] If you pirate it on the public network using a Wi-Fi connection. +[4873.74 --> 4878.42] But if they ask you to log in with your customer ID the way that Shaw does, +[4879.16 --> 4879.80] then it'll... +[4880.40 --> 4881.06] Good call. +[4881.30 --> 4882.62] That's even more trackable. +[4882.82 --> 4883.42] Yeah, yeah. +[4883.56 --> 4884.80] There isn't even any plausible deniability. +[4885.56 --> 4887.34] Like, oh, I didn't have my Wi-Fi network secured. +[4887.34 --> 4888.26] It was someone outside my house. +[4888.26 --> 4888.76] Yeah, yeah. +[4888.76 --> 4891.50] Um, if anyone is using my internet, I'll go completely mad. +[4892.00 --> 4892.84] Don't want people making me... +[4892.84 --> 4893.10] No, no. +[4893.18 --> 4895.30] You don't pay for the other people to use your internet. +[4895.48 --> 4896.24] It doesn't work that way. +[4896.46 --> 4897.90] It doesn't count towards your bandwidth limit. +[4898.64 --> 4900.18] I've been here for years in the UK. +[4901.80 --> 4903.10] Allow you to opt in. +[4903.10 --> 4907.78] Oh, so you have to opt in to use other people's hotspots. +[4908.72 --> 4909.12] Okay. +[4909.64 --> 4910.58] That's kind of alright. +[4910.84 --> 4911.80] If it starts... +[4911.80 --> 4913.94] But you were talking you can opt out. +[4914.28 --> 4914.82] This is a... +[4914.82 --> 4915.72] You would have to opt in. +[4915.72 --> 4916.80] Yeah, like I like this system. +[4916.86 --> 4917.38] That's cool. +[4917.50 --> 4918.46] Yeah, I like that better. +[4918.46 --> 4918.62] I'm down with that. +[4919.62 --> 4920.70] Swallox is not okay. +[4922.22 --> 4922.86] Hell no. +[4922.94 --> 4924.92] Especially not considering Comcast's reputation. +[4925.14 --> 4926.06] Yeah, it's kind of a... +[4926.06 --> 4927.34] That's like... +[4927.34 --> 4930.16] You have to assume anything coming out of there is going to be terrible. +[4930.46 --> 4932.24] You have to find why it's terrible. +[4932.78 --> 4934.30] It's usually not that hard to... +[4934.30 --> 4936.90] Let's play the Find Why It's Terrible game. +[4938.38 --> 4939.98] Featuring Comcast, EA. +[4942.78 --> 4945.32] Oh, EA hasn't done anything that evil lately, have they? +[4946.08 --> 4946.82] Well, they probably have. +[4946.82 --> 4948.44] I haven't been paying a ton of attention. +[4949.06 --> 4950.24] There's probably been some. +[4950.24 --> 4953.70] Alright, well I think that's pretty much it for the WAN show, guys. +[4954.30 --> 4954.82] Oh, right. +[4954.82 --> 4957.60] Okay, I'll let you talk about Oculus again for a second. +[4957.70 --> 4959.76] This was originally posted on the forum by Top War Gamer. +[4960.34 --> 4965.86] And Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg sees Oculus as a chance to get the device into as many hands as possible. +[4966.00 --> 4966.92] Price be damned. +[4967.54 --> 4969.18] And he says... +[4969.18 --> 4973.64] There's that quote saying the Oculus Rift will sell at the lowest cost possible. +[4973.78 --> 4976.42] There's also Palmer saying that it will sell at cost. +[4976.42 --> 4986.22] What Palmer actually meant by selling at cost was including things like bomb cost, shipping, distribution, all that stuff. +[4986.48 --> 4992.00] So like, they're not looking to gain money off of sales of individual Oculus. +[4992.32 --> 4993.14] They just don't want to lose. +[4993.20 --> 4994.44] They're not losing money though. +[4994.46 --> 4996.14] Mark Zuckerberg doesn't seem to give any cares. +[4996.54 --> 4996.74] No. +[4997.06 --> 4997.32] Yeah. +[4998.06 --> 4998.92] Lose all the money. +[4999.38 --> 5000.92] Put Oculus's in the hands of everyone. +[5000.92 --> 5003.16] There's been a ton of stuff coming out. +[5003.26 --> 5012.52] There was the interview that I had where he was talking about how tons of people are working on input stuff that's even not announced. +[5012.86 --> 5013.26] Right. +[5013.26 --> 5022.20] And then there was another interview where he actually like semi-admitted to Oculus working on other hardware that isn't the Rift. +[5023.14 --> 5023.50] Interesting. +[5023.78 --> 5025.48] They're working on their own input solutions. +[5025.60 --> 5026.50] They're working on all that kind of stuff. +[5026.74 --> 5028.86] They're also working on first party games. +[5029.06 --> 5032.04] So developing their own games under Oculus. +[5032.66 --> 5035.56] And with recent hires like one of the co-founders of Naughty Dog. +[5036.24 --> 5039.32] Some people are expecting some like pretty legit stuff. +[5040.12 --> 5040.52] Interesting. +[5040.72 --> 5042.16] Interesting things coming out of there. +[5042.16 --> 5049.60] I would highly recommend to shill for myself and tell everyone to go watch the Oculus video where I talk to Palmer about how 30 FPS gaming is pathetic. +[5049.78 --> 5049.90] Yeah. +[5049.92 --> 5050.72] How cool was that for you? +[5050.76 --> 5051.56] That was really cool. +[5052.84 --> 5054.00] That was awesome. +[5055.12 --> 5055.84] Highlight of the trip? +[5056.22 --> 5056.44] Yeah. +[5056.60 --> 5056.94] Probably. +[5057.38 --> 5060.74] Before that the highlight of the trip was Control VR which no one is watching. +[5061.60 --> 5065.04] But then I got to talk to Palmer which was actually really really cool. +[5065.94 --> 5069.10] Speaking of things people should watch. +[5069.10 --> 5071.08] The show is kind of over at this point. +[5071.16 --> 5071.74] Oh yeah yeah yeah. +[5072.16 --> 5074.96] Asus North America. +[5075.52 --> 5081.36] So we just had a video that we created for Asus that they just launched on their channel. +[5081.88 --> 5084.06] So you guys should definitely go check it out. +[5084.42 --> 5084.60] Oh. +[5084.98 --> 5085.96] All the sound. +[5086.60 --> 5086.98] Hold on. +[5087.04 --> 5087.42] Where is it? +[5087.74 --> 5088.28] There we go. +[5088.58 --> 5089.08] There we go. +[5089.14 --> 5089.48] Here we go. +[5089.48 --> 5090.92] I'm posting it in the Twitch chat right now. +[5090.92 --> 5093.06] A couple people are saying that they watched it. +[5093.32 --> 5094.14] Thanks guys. +[5094.38 --> 5095.20] I appreciate it. +[5095.34 --> 5098.84] It's getting less views than our like totally unknown game indie content. +[5099.48 --> 5100.82] Oh no that's not the one that. +[5100.86 --> 5102.18] Oh people are saying they watched your video. +[5102.42 --> 5102.52] Okay. +[5102.52 --> 5102.64] Yeah. +[5102.64 --> 5102.80] Yeah. +[5102.80 --> 5102.88] Yeah. +[5102.88 --> 5102.96] Yeah. +[5102.96 --> 5103.24] Yeah. +[5103.24 --> 5108.82] The one that I'm posting is me and Luke having a night battle over the opportunity +[5108.82 --> 5111.00] to like win a notebook. +[5111.24 --> 5112.88] So it's like it's kind of funny. +[5113.00 --> 5114.82] Which is funny because we both ended up with them. +[5114.98 --> 5115.22] Yeah. +[5115.32 --> 5115.42] I know. +[5115.42 --> 5117.26] I never realized that part of this storyline. +[5117.26 --> 5119.88] That's awesome. +[5120.00 --> 5120.64] What is this?

So funnily +[13.76 --> 18.62] enough, well not even power cycling the microphone, cycling the phantom power +[18.62 --> 23.00] switch on our mixer for the microphone because actually powering down the +[23.00 --> 27.44] entire mixer and then powering it back up completely didn't address the issue +[27.44 --> 31.88] but pressing the button and then pressing it again did for whatever +[31.88 --> 37.64] freaking reason.

Wow, what's with... +[54.44 --> 58.88] Okay, we need to start talking about Oculus. I know, but that's depressing. Everything's depressing. I know. +[58.88 --> 62.88] Whenever the show is late, I'm depressed. I was talking to him about this offline and I'm like, +[62.88 --> 67.04] I know you guys hate it when the show is late. We hate it when the show is late too +[67.04 --> 73.20] because like I feel personally responsible for all the hours of time that are being +[73.20 --> 77.78] wasted while people sit and wait for us and that's terrible. And we went as far as +[77.78 --> 83.42] as to buy completely new sets of all of our equipment so that everything, the camera, +[83.42 --> 87.82] the lens, the microphone, the boom pole, the mixer, the compressor, the computer, +[87.82 --> 91.90] everything stays in this room and we don't touch it other than to live stream. +[91.90 --> 95.34] That's how far we went to make sure that our show was on time for you guys. +[95.34 --> 99.54] And yet, here we are and we still have these issues and I'm really, really sorry. +[99.54 --> 103.38] But enough of that. Let's get this thing started, shall we? +[103.38 --> 109.02] The big news this week is obviously Facebook's acquisition of Oculus. +[109.02 --> 117.62] Oh, this is hilarious. Twitch is like, confirmed WAN show acquired by Facebook. +[117.62 --> 119.62] No, not so much. +[119.62 --> 124.02] Our setup would have probably worked if we had that much money. +[124.02 --> 128.34] And you know what? That's one of the positive things to take away from this whole thing. +[128.34 --> 132.26] We're going to get into it in more depth later, but we do have some other initial topics here +[132.26 --> 135.62] that I just want to sort of throw at you guys that we will be talking about. +[135.62 --> 140.90] So, Nvidia had a call earlier this week where they talked about their plans with respect to DirectX 12 +[140.90 --> 144.02] and how that figures into their overall strategy. +[144.02 --> 148.26] You know what's funny is I don't think Nvidia ever actually outright said, +[148.26 --> 151.62] we're not going to support Mantle, no matter how open it is. +[151.62 --> 156.02] In fact, I think they still haven't said that, but no. +[156.02 --> 161.78] They also pushed a big update for Nvidia Shield this week, which is a huge deal. +[161.78 --> 165.22] It allows things like off-site game stream. +[165.22 --> 167.70] So, we'll get into more details on that later. +[167.70 --> 168.98] But like three, four... +[168.98 --> 170.66] Good luck scrolling through the document. +[170.66 --> 174.34] Yeah, four or five pages of our document are all Oculus this week. +[174.34 --> 175.86] So, it's going to be kind of a big deal. +[175.86 --> 178.02] Nvidia also launched the Titan Z. +[178.02 --> 180.02] Bitcoins are now considered property. +[180.02 --> 183.78] And without further ado, let's get this intro done so we can get this show on the road. +[183.78 --> 185.78] Let's get this intro done. +[205.78 --> 207.06] Whoa, what's that? +[207.06 --> 210.98] We're going to PAX-E sponsored by Intel and Corsair. +[210.98 --> 214.98] Also sponsoring this week's episode of the WAN Show is Hotspot Shield. +[214.98 --> 219.70] With their elite service, which you can get 20% off of by the way with offer code Linus. +[219.70 --> 224.98] You can make it more difficult for people to figure out who you are online. +[224.98 --> 229.62] You can actually get access to services that are otherwise geographically locked. +[229.62 --> 232.90] And, I mean, those are I guess the main benefits of a VPN. +[232.90 --> 235.06] You could probably stop Facebook from tracking you. +[235.06 --> 238.50] Yeah, and you can do all that relatively inexpensively and easily. +[238.50 --> 240.90] All right, so let's get into our first topic here. +[240.90 --> 245.22] Let's just do something before like the train wreck. +[245.22 --> 245.78] Really? +[245.78 --> 247.78] Let's do one topic. +[247.78 --> 248.74] I don't even think so. +[248.74 --> 249.54] You don't even think so? +[249.54 --> 250.34] I don't even think so. +[250.34 --> 251.14] Okay, let's do this thing. +[251.14 --> 252.90] I honestly just think we should jump right in. +[252.90 --> 262.66] Okay, so I, the role of Linus over the next 45 minutes or so will be played by, I'm gonna go get Jeff. +[263.30 --> 265.30] So you go ahead and get started. +[265.30 --> 266.50] You have input on this. +[266.50 --> 266.90] Do I? +[266.90 --> 267.30] Well, hold on. +[267.30 --> 268.34] You've talked to me a little bit. +[268.34 --> 269.46] Jeff has input too. +[269.46 --> 269.94] Okay. +[269.94 --> 272.58] And I'm not letting you make Jeff's voice not heard. +[272.58 --> 273.78] I did murder him earlier. +[274.50 --> 274.90] Nope. +[274.90 --> 275.30] Literally. +[275.30 --> 275.94] Nope. +[275.94 --> 281.70] Okay, well, as all of you know at this point, I'm sure, and if you don't, how, what? +[281.70 --> 282.50] I, no. +[282.50 --> 289.46] Um, so Oculus was acquired by Facebook for $400 million cash and what equated to a total with +[289.46 --> 292.58] that cash of $2 billion in cash and stock auctions. +[292.58 --> 298.26] So they got $2 billion, kind of, because a lot of it's Facebook stock, which went down a lot recently, +[298.26 --> 302.82] resulting in about a negative $112 million change on that deal. +[302.82 --> 306.50] Although everyone suspects that Facebook stock is just going to bounce back. +[306.50 --> 308.50] So it probably actually won't matter in the end. +[308.50 --> 313.06] And they're not exactly selling all this stock immediately anyways, because they're probably +[313.06 --> 316.18] going to have to sell it over time and then blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[316.18 --> 317.86] So there's tons of speculation around that. +[317.86 --> 319.86] So whatever it was $2 billion deal. +[319.86 --> 321.70] We'll figure out how much that equates to in the end. +[321.70 --> 324.90] And I'm sure by that time, no one will really care anyways. +[324.90 --> 328.98] There's a bunch of negative and positive, um, angles you can take on this. +[328.98 --> 330.34] I'm going to go through the negative ones first. +[330.34 --> 333.46] At least these are angles that I've seen people take already. +[333.46 --> 336.58] There's obviously some that'll pop up later on that we haven't talked about yet. +[336.58 --> 341.46] But the negative angles, the main ones I've seen is, people on the internet don't trust acquisitions. +[341.46 --> 345.22] Generally, whenever there's an acquisition, people on the internet just hate it. +[345.22 --> 347.70] All right, moving on. +[347.70 --> 350.02] They said they weren't interested in being acquired before. +[350.02 --> 351.86] There's actually quite a few quotes of them saying, +[351.86 --> 356.02] oh, we won't have to be acquired by some big company and that's a good thing, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[356.02 --> 357.86] And now they're acquired by a huge company. +[357.86 --> 360.02] So that's interesting, I guess. +[360.02 --> 360.82] Moving on. +[360.82 --> 363.94] Being acquired due to Kickstarter success feels like betrayal. +[364.58 --> 370.02] Notch actually echoed this by saying that he didn't donate $10,000 just as a seed fund +[370.02 --> 372.26] so that they could be acquired by a huge company. +[372.26 --> 374.50] That's not an exact quote, but it's something along those lines. +[374.50 --> 375.70] We'll get more into that later. +[375.70 --> 381.86] The internet kind of as a glommed hole, obviously not the entire thing, +[381.86 --> 385.46] but just generally the voice of the internet dislikes Facebook. +[385.46 --> 385.86] So this... +[386.82 --> 388.58] The vocal minority. +[388.58 --> 391.38] Because if you look at Facebook's user base... +[391.38 --> 391.94] It's huge. +[391.94 --> 395.14] Obviously, the whole internet doesn't refuse to use Facebook. +[395.14 --> 398.02] But what a lot of people see as the internet. +[398.02 --> 402.10] The popular opinion of the internet folk. +[402.10 --> 404.66] Yeah, not necessarily the action, but the voice of the internet. +[404.66 --> 405.22] Yeah. +[406.42 --> 408.74] Facebook is deemed as creepy by people like Notch. +[408.74 --> 410.82] Again, we'll get into Notch's comments on this later. +[411.62 --> 414.42] People wanted Oculus to stick with its homebrew roots. +[414.42 --> 418.02] And signing up with Facebook is not exactly sticking with homebrew roots. +[419.22 --> 421.46] Why didn't some other company buy them? +[421.46 --> 424.74] And there's been a whole bunch of things like Valve and all these other things +[424.74 --> 428.02] which may or may not make any sense at all, but we'll get into that later, again. +[429.38 --> 429.78] Really? +[431.62 --> 434.02] WhatsApp is worth 10 times as much as Oculus, almost? +[435.06 --> 436.18] We'll get into that later. +[436.82 --> 442.42] And all the comments of, oh my god, Farmville 3D and Facebook pop-ups all over your face +[442.42 --> 446.18] and all that kind of stuff, again, we'll get into that later. +[446.18 --> 448.82] Now there's the positive angles that I've seen a lot of people take. +[449.62 --> 453.86] It will drive some new immersive experiences that are going to be very deep. +[453.86 --> 456.98] You're going to be able to go and hopefully travel different places, experience different things, +[457.62 --> 461.30] shop online virtually, hopefully be able to see sizing and stuff like that because your avatar +[461.30 --> 463.06] will be the right size, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[463.06 --> 465.30] Tons of new experiences that you weren't expecting before. +[465.30 --> 467.78] Whether or not you think that's a good thing, this is a positive angle. +[468.34 --> 470.98] The increased funding is allowing them to hire more talent, +[470.98 --> 474.82] like Michael Abrash, which we'll talk about later. +[474.82 --> 476.26] That's amazing, actually. +[476.26 --> 477.46] That's incredibly awesome. +[478.98 --> 482.90] They were already being controlled by investors is another big one. +[482.90 --> 489.54] Actually, pretty deeply rooted one that we're going to get into later that I have a ton of theories about +[489.54 --> 494.90] and some really interesting quotes that we've seen over the past month or two, which really hint to this, +[494.90 --> 496.34] but we'll talk about that later again. +[497.30 --> 500.26] They didn't get purchased by another gaming hardware company. +[500.26 --> 502.34] That would have been a disaster in my mind. +[502.34 --> 504.42] I mean, if they've been bought by... +[504.42 --> 508.74] I've actually seen people suggest that Sony or Microsoft would have been a better option. +[508.74 --> 509.22] That would have been terrible. +[509.22 --> 510.74] That would have been disastrous. +[510.74 --> 518.18] I mean, you'll look at how closed Xbox and PlayStation are as ecosystems. +[518.18 --> 524.34] And even the Oculus community, which is generally right now makers, hackers, hardcores, all that kind of stuff, +[524.34 --> 525.70] have been talking about... +[525.70 --> 528.10] There's the Tuscany demo. +[528.10 --> 531.94] You can go to a small version of Tuscany and enjoy that environment. +[531.94 --> 537.14] Something I've talked about on the stream before was how I hoped that someone would go and recreate something like Rome +[537.14 --> 539.70] and make it so that someone, even if they're in an old folks home, +[539.70 --> 541.70] could travel the world and experience these things. +[541.70 --> 543.14] This is very cool. +[543.14 --> 547.14] And you don't want to get locked into a gaming hardware niche and have none of that ever be possible. +[547.14 --> 548.98] Right now, Oculus is open. +[548.98 --> 552.74] Of course gaming is going to drive it, but hopefully it opens up. +[552.74 --> 554.58] So again, these are all positive angles. +[555.78 --> 557.30] They can now afford custom hardware. +[557.30 --> 562.66] They've been scraping off what they can kind of manage to get from the mobile market, like mobile phones. +[562.66 --> 568.34] And now they'll actually be able to make hardware that is designed and built and manufactured for the Rift, +[568.34 --> 570.58] instead of something that was made for something else. +[570.58 --> 573.22] And they're just kind of hacking it and forcing it in there and making it work. +[573.22 --> 577.06] Because, I mean, and this is something that, sort of the whole negative thing, +[578.90 --> 584.26] where the makers and hackers don't really feel that great about Oculus not staying true to the homebrew roots. +[584.26 --> 590.18] But those guys also want a fantastic VR experience. +[590.18 --> 591.06] 4K, whatever. +[591.06 --> 596.18] And purpose-made hardware is going to be a big way to get there. +[596.18 --> 596.50] Yeah. +[596.50 --> 598.50] Alright, so are we going through the history now? +[598.50 --> 599.54] One more thing. +[600.58 --> 602.18] Oh crap, where did it go? +[604.02 --> 604.90] I can't remember where it is. +[604.90 --> 606.18] It doesn't matter, I'll get into it later. +[606.18 --> 610.82] So, how I designed this document, and how I think we're going to go through this, +[610.82 --> 616.26] is actually like kind of the progression of thought of kind of a lot of people. +[616.26 --> 618.50] And how people found out different news. +[618.50 --> 622.26] And part of maybe the reason why it started off as a massive explosion, +[622.26 --> 624.58] not that it isn't still a massive explosion. +[624.58 --> 627.54] You can make your own decision on whether or not it's positive or negative, +[627.54 --> 629.14] and we'll get into that kind of stuff later. +[629.14 --> 632.58] But we're just going to go through how things happened and why things happened. +[632.58 --> 634.66] And the reason we're going to do that, +[634.66 --> 637.30] I mean, I've seen a few comments in Twitch chat from people saying, +[637.30 --> 639.06] oh, I'm not that interested in Oculus. +[639.78 --> 640.66] Okay, two things. +[640.66 --> 643.46] Number one, yes you are, you just don't know it yet. +[643.46 --> 647.78] And number two, Oculus is, well, basically the same as number one. +[647.78 --> 651.14] Oculus and VR in general is extremely important. +[651.14 --> 658.74] And this is a turning point in not just gaming, and not just Oculus, but in VR. +[658.74 --> 660.98] And in what that's going to mean for the future. +[660.98 --> 664.34] So that's why we are dedicating almost an entire show to it. +[664.34 --> 667.86] You guys can stay tuned in, and this is going to be a really great show. +[667.86 --> 673.78] Luke in particular has worked extremely hard on making sure that we're bringing you guys +[673.78 --> 676.02] some really good coverage of what happened this week. +[676.02 --> 679.14] So you can stay tuned in and you can enjoy that. +[679.14 --> 682.90] Or if you don't think this is important, legitimately don't think this is important, +[682.90 --> 686.82] then, I mean, you can probably tune back in in about 45 minutes or an hour, +[686.82 --> 689.30] and we'll get into some of the Nvidia stuff and some of the other stuff this week. +[689.30 --> 692.82] But this is such a big deal right now and in the future. +[692.82 --> 696.90] Another thing that I wanted to bring up, the thing I forgot to bring up on the positive angles thing, +[696.90 --> 699.22] which is actually not on the doc, which is probably why you started talking, +[699.22 --> 703.94] is even if you are done with Oculus, it doesn't matter. +[703.94 --> 706.10] VR is now going to happen. +[706.10 --> 710.18] Because there's been this big of an investment, other investment firms are going to look into other +[710.18 --> 714.58] companies and start pouring a lot more money into VR because Facebook is huge, +[714.58 --> 717.06] and they are a competitor, a natural competitor of many things. +[717.06 --> 718.90] So VR is now going to happen. +[718.90 --> 721.86] There's a lot of people been going like, oh, Oculus is dead now. +[721.86 --> 724.02] Whether or not they're dead doesn't matter. +[724.02 --> 727.62] Even if they're the sacrificial lamb, it's going to happen now. +[727.62 --> 729.86] VR is, we made it. +[729.86 --> 733.70] Yeah, when one company dives in and invests a couple billion, +[733.70 --> 735.78] then everyone else kind of goes, ooh. +[735.78 --> 736.90] Oh, this matters. +[736.90 --> 739.06] Ooh, Facebook thinks it's important. +[739.06 --> 743.22] So all of a sudden VR companies are going to be acquired by big guys, +[743.22 --> 744.74] and they're going to get investment funding. +[744.74 --> 745.38] Tons of funding, yeah. +[745.38 --> 749.78] And all the funding, and it's going to happen, and it's going to be really great. +[750.42 --> 752.74] Whether it's the kind of great we envisioned or not, it remains to be seen. +[752.74 --> 757.30] Yeah, whether or not you think Oculus is now the sacrificial lamb that's going to die, +[757.30 --> 759.78] or if you think they're just going to be the biggest thing on the planet, +[759.78 --> 760.66] it doesn't matter. +[760.66 --> 762.82] It's happening, which is a good thing. +[762.82 --> 769.70] So it started off with the posts by Mark Zuckerberg and Palmer Luckey on Palmer, +[769.70 --> 775.22] posting on Reddit and on the blog for Oculus, and Mark posting on Facebook. +[775.22 --> 777.38] Can you make sure that... +[777.38 --> 779.70] Okay, I'm going to try and keep up with you and post links and stuff, +[779.70 --> 781.62] since I won't have a whole ton to say. +[781.62 --> 784.02] At the start, it should be fairly easy. +[784.02 --> 787.94] It's starting off fairly slow, especially because I'm mainly going over the future of VR +[787.94 --> 788.50] Reddit post. +[788.50 --> 788.90] Sure, okay. +[788.90 --> 790.98] So I'm going to stay there for a while, and then it might get a little bit... +[790.98 --> 792.50] So I'm going to go ahead and drop this in there. +[792.50 --> 792.90] Yeah. +[792.90 --> 793.30] There we go. +[793.30 --> 798.26] So I'm going to start off with some very notable things that were said in Palmer's post on Reddit. +[798.26 --> 804.82] He said, we've received orders of over 75,000 development kits from game developers, +[804.82 --> 806.98] content creators, and artists around the world. +[806.98 --> 807.46] There's... +[807.46 --> 809.54] And I'm going to comment on each thing that I've read in here, +[809.54 --> 811.06] and then go into other comments later on. +[811.06 --> 815.14] One big thing that people were attacking him over on this was a lot of people that +[815.14 --> 818.98] went into this aren't game developers, content creators, and artists. +[818.98 --> 821.46] I'm not a game developer, content creator, or an artist. +[821.46 --> 821.86] Of course... +[821.86 --> 824.34] Yeah, you're not particularly talented at all, are you? +[824.34 --> 824.98] No. +[824.98 --> 825.70] I think you're great. +[825.70 --> 826.26] That was so... +[826.26 --> 832.74] Anyways, I dabbled in making some stuff in Unity, and it was fun, to be completely honest, +[832.74 --> 834.66] but I didn't make anything that was worth releasing. +[834.66 --> 836.34] I'm not a game designer. +[836.34 --> 838.82] I've dabbled in programming, but I'm not that amazing. +[840.26 --> 841.06] And I know... +[841.06 --> 843.86] Everyone I know that's bought one isn't any of these things. +[843.86 --> 847.62] They're interested in the company, so people were worried that he was abusing that number +[847.62 --> 850.74] to try and get investment feeds, and people were cancelling because they're trying to vote +[850.74 --> 851.62] with their wallet, whatever. +[851.62 --> 852.58] We'll get more into that later. +[854.34 --> 859.06] Another quote from there was, when Facebook first approached us about partnering, I was +[859.06 --> 859.86] skeptical. +[859.86 --> 862.10] A lot of people were like, you probably should have kept that angle. +[863.38 --> 866.26] We'll get more into that later, and why he ended up doing it, all that kind of stuff. +[867.38 --> 870.82] Facebook is run in an open way that is aligned with Oculus' culture. +[870.82 --> 877.86] A lot of people responded saying, how is Facebook aligned with Oculus at all, in an open way, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[877.86 --> 882.34] But there is reasons for and against that. They have pushed for a lot of open development. +[882.34 --> 885.14] People are saying, oh no, they haven't. They actually have. They've invested quite a +[885.14 --> 888.98] bit of money in open development. Some of their stuff is proprietary and closed, but not everything. +[888.98 --> 890.42] And they do push for some open stuff. +[890.42 --> 894.82] Yeah, they've talked a lot about even things like the architecture that they use to make Facebook +[894.82 --> 897.94] so responsive with such a... with the heavy load that it has. +[897.94 --> 899.94] They're pretty open about a lot of that kind of stuff. +[899.94 --> 906.02] They are pushing connectivity forward in some ways. And I don't want this to feel like I'm some kind of +[906.02 --> 908.34] a Facebook fanboy. I'm not. But... +[909.54 --> 913.30] I didn't even have it until I needed to be able to admin the Linus Tech to his Facebook page. +[913.30 --> 913.86] Yeah, I know, right? +[913.86 --> 919.30] So like, yeah, I don't know. We're... yeah, it's just... that's just a fact. They haven't been completely +[919.30 --> 926.18] against openness, no matter how you want to see it. It means Oculus Rift with... Oculus Rift with fewer... +[926.18 --> 931.38] Oculus Rift will be able to come out with fewer compromises and faster, which is... that's just +[931.38 --> 935.06] probably true. There's tons more money. Yeah, they can pay more for manufacturing, +[935.06 --> 936.90] and they can push things through faster. Yeah. +[936.90 --> 942.34] Um, Oculus is somewhat unpredictable future. It just became crystal clear. Virtual reality is coming, +[942.34 --> 946.34] and it's going to change the way we view and play games forever. That was slightly edited, +[946.34 --> 949.70] but it's essentially what we were talking about earlier. VR is happening now. +[949.70 --> 950.34] Yeah. +[950.34 --> 954.58] No matter what. Um, another quote from him, I'm obsessed with VR. I spend every day pushing +[954.58 --> 958.26] further and every night dreaming of where we're going. Uh, even in my wildest dreams, +[958.26 --> 962.66] I never imagined we'd come so far so fast. I'm a proud member of this community. Thank you all for +[962.66 --> 966.58] carrying virtual reality and gaming forward and trusting us to deliver. We won't let you down. +[967.62 --> 971.30] So he said all that, but the reality of it is, is he can't say anything else. +[972.10 --> 979.30] So we're not sure what to read into this. I think at the, at the end of the day, if you trust Palmer, +[979.30 --> 985.54] and you trust the Oculus team, it's not like they can just bail and start again because Oculus, +[985.54 --> 993.62] the company owns so many patents now that they in all likelihood wouldn't even be able to start up +[993.62 --> 998.10] again and go back up against their old company. I'm sure there's some type of non-compete agreements +[998.10 --> 1002.74] and stuff too, but there's, there, there is things in here. People were wondering like, oh, are those, +[1003.30 --> 1005.70] uh, notch actually specifically, I'm going to jump down right here. +[1005.70 --> 1011.86] So let's clarify who notch is Minecraft. Minecraft creator notch, uh, actually replied on this exact +[1011.86 --> 1015.30] Reddit thread saying, you got my respect before I met you. You kept it when I met you, blah, blah, +[1015.30 --> 1019.14] blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I'm going to jump forward a little bit. Um, where is it? +[1019.14 --> 1024.26] I just hope you got your fair share. VR will live on. Thank you for being part of making it finally +[1024.26 --> 1028.34] happen. But I really wish this hadn't happened. The main part I was trying to say is I understand +[1028.34 --> 1034.66] you're probably under a big NDA and stuck in golden handcuffs, um, which, which is interesting, +[1034.66 --> 1040.26] but you also have to realize that you've got Palmer and which is interesting. A lot of people +[1040.26 --> 1046.90] started to trust Palmer, but you have John Carmack. John Carmack isn't just going to shut up and code +[1047.78 --> 1053.14] because someone's slapping dollar bills at him. Yeah, that's not going to happen. So if, if this does +[1053.14 --> 1057.38] start getting forced in a bad direction, if I were you guys paying attention, I would listen to John +[1057.38 --> 1062.02] Carmack. Honestly, personally, I'm going to listen to Palmer too, but he is a lot newer to the scene than +[1062.02 --> 1067.22] John freaking Carmack. John Carmack says whatever he wants, as far as I can tell. Yeah. As far as +[1067.22 --> 1072.10] anyone can probably tell. I'm going to go ahead and so if you, if you really want to get some feedback, +[1072.10 --> 1076.58] uh, Carmack actually posted on Twitter about three days ago. He basically said, look, +[1076.58 --> 1081.54] the volume of tweets right now is way too high. I can't even begin to look at it all. But if you +[1081.54 --> 1087.86] hit me in a few days or like once the poop storm starts to die down a little bit, then he does want +[1087.86 --> 1092.98] to engage. He does want to engage. He does want to talk about it. Um, when I initially saw that it +[1092.98 --> 1097.78] was radio silence from Carmack for the first couple of days after the acquisition, that set off some +[1097.78 --> 1105.30] warning bells. Maybe he's unhappy, but it looks now as if he was just weathering the storm. He actually, +[1105.30 --> 1110.58] he said, I'm currently coding. He was essentially being like, guys, I'm working. Well, that's a blog post +[1110.58 --> 1115.06] from, uh, from when? That's from yesterday or the day before, right? Yeah. I'm currently coding. Yeah. That was pretty +[1115.06 --> 1121.22] early on. Yeah. So he's like, yeah, I'm still coding just the same as I was this time last week. So +[1122.18 --> 1125.94] for all intents and purposes, nothing has changed. And that was echoing the idea that the Facebook +[1125.94 --> 1131.14] acquisition hadn't changed anything. Anyways, moving on. Um, people were asking when I saw Notch in the +[1131.14 --> 1134.90] comments, they were asking him a whole bunch of questions and they were basically saying, +[1134.90 --> 1139.06] please tell me it's going to be all right. Notch replied with a lot of companies are working on VR. +[1139.06 --> 1144.26] Now this means competition. This means better VR and higher chances of a mass market acceptance. +[1144.26 --> 1150.10] This means even better VR. It's going to be all right. Very small italicized print, maybe. So +[1150.10 --> 1153.78] that echoes again, the thing that we said earlier, where no matter what you think about this, it's +[1153.78 --> 1158.42] pushing VR forward, whether or not Oculus is what carries the torch in the end, they're carrying it +[1158.42 --> 1164.26] right now. Um, people are saying to Palmer, you were the chosen one. You were supposed to just destroy +[1164.26 --> 1168.98] the Sith, not join them. Bring balance to the voice, not leave it in darkness. Um, I just had to keep +[1168.98 --> 1174.74] that in there because it was kind of funny. Now echoing one of the most highly upvoted posts on +[1174.74 --> 1178.98] the thread, these were a bunch of the concerns. Facebook is known for its intrusive tracking of +[1178.98 --> 1184.58] users. Facebook is undoubtedly a massive company. It is beginning to lose a lot of its teenage population +[1184.58 --> 1190.34] due to more widespread use of the older population. And the fact that Oculus has been acquired by Facebook. +[1190.34 --> 1196.66] Palmer has repeatedly said, um, partnership or partnering, um, but they were acquired. So he was worried about +[1196.66 --> 1200.90] that terminology where it might just be kind of a haze and Palmer thinks they're partnering up, +[1200.90 --> 1207.86] but really Facebook is the one on top. So those were the, the main things spoken there. Um, about +[1207.86 --> 1214.26] the Facebook is known for intrusive tracking of users. Uh, as far as I can tell if the, if the lead +[1214.26 --> 1217.54] people of Oculus still have anything to say about it, that platform is going to be really open. +[1218.10 --> 1223.22] And you'll probably know about it. So that might be a bad thing, but again, Oculus is carrying the torch +[1223.22 --> 1228.66] now. So if later on down the line, you see an update, like the update we saw on, on, uh, mobile +[1228.66 --> 1232.66] that says like Facebook is now reading all of your text messages, despite having nothing to do with +[1232.66 --> 1239.22] those, um, you should know about it. So just pay a lot of attention. And then I mean, Facebook's whole +[1239.22 --> 1243.06] thing, I don't see anything in your notes here, but Facebook's whole thing has been where we want +[1243.06 --> 1250.34] Oculus to operate pretty basically independently. Um, just like what we did with Instagram and WhatsApp. +[1250.34 --> 1256.42] But my counter to that is, I mean, you'll look at Mark Zuckerberg's blog post where he talks about +[1256.42 --> 1262.10] the future of connectivity and how exciting these experiences we can deliver, you know, +[1262.10 --> 1266.50] whether it's travel or whether it's having a face to face meeting with someone or, or whatever it +[1266.50 --> 1273.38] happens to be. When he talks about that, we're talking like a 10 year, 20 year outlook. And they +[1273.38 --> 1282.26] acquired Instagram like two years ago and they acquired WhatsApp. Like, so this is not a track +[1282.26 --> 1288.50] record of acquiring companies and letting them operate independently. This is, this is in the last +[1288.50 --> 1296.42] like little tiny amount of time, like since Linus media group, they haven't really disrupted things +[1296.42 --> 1303.14] with their two big acquisitions. So the fact that all this is being said now, uh, I mean, you look at +[1303.14 --> 1307.54] how quickly politicians can turn around and have a campaign and then go back on that and still get +[1307.54 --> 1314.66] elected four years later. And the collective memory of people is so short that even if Facebook does +[1314.66 --> 1319.62] exert complete control over Oculus in let's, let's use four years as an example, because that's the +[1319.62 --> 1327.38] elected term in the U S and Canada for politicians. So even if Facebook does in four years exert complete +[1327.38 --> 1333.86] control and four years after that plaster the whole platform with ads and use it as a way to collect data +[1333.86 --> 1339.38] on where you go, what you look at and all of this great stuff, probably no one will ever even remember +[1339.38 --> 1348.50] this happened. Except you. Except for me. Um, now we get into the poop storm. Okay. That was the start of it. And that was +[1348.50 --> 1354.02] people honestly in that Reddit thread, I found it to be more calm than elsewhere, which was kind of confusing. +[1354.02 --> 1357.94] Things started popping up. People started digging up things on both Facebook and Oculus. +[1357.94 --> 1362.58] So you want that one first? First thing. Yeah. There's a really bad word in it. Um, first thing +[1362.58 --> 1369.30] that comes to mind is a very old screenshot from a conversation that, um, Mark Zuckerberg had when he said, +[1369.30 --> 1375.14] um, yeah. So if you ever need any info on about anyone at Harvard, just ask. I have over 4,000 emails, +[1375.14 --> 1379.94] pictures, addresses, SNS, et cetera. And then the guy said, how do you manage that? He said, +[1379.94 --> 1385.86] people just submitted it. I don't know why they trust me. Dumb. Well, yeah, we don't say that word +[1385.86 --> 1391.46] on this show, but you guys can read. It's right there. Yeah. Um, so like, that's not cool, +[1391.46 --> 1395.70] especially because of speculation that VR devices are going to get things like eye tracking, +[1395.70 --> 1400.10] the fact that this thing is strapped to your freaking face. So if you're looking at a certain +[1400.10 --> 1404.98] product or something like that, they know it's not just like in another tab, you are looking at it, +[1404.98 --> 1410.90] with your face. And I'm not blaming AMD for this, but their true audio technology. So the programmable +[1410.90 --> 1416.18] DSP that like, it's, it's like a really powerful sound processor. They showed off some really cool +[1416.18 --> 1423.54] demos with respect to voice recognition. So all of a sudden now, hold on a second, because we went from, +[1423.54 --> 1429.22] you know, um, not being too worried about people really tapping into anything that we're doing +[1429.22 --> 1435.78] to all of a sudden is face to face conversation going to be the only way to actually not have +[1435.78 --> 1440.90] anyone listening. And are we going to allow ourselves to be convinced that aside from phone +[1440.90 --> 1448.66] taps and messaging taps, um, when you have a VR conversation with someone like, uh, I mean, +[1448.66 --> 1453.30] you look at the kinds of things, the kinds of experiences that VR could bring us. Do you want +[1453.30 --> 1459.22] Facebook listening to everything you say when you have a family reunion and everyone's VR-ing in +[1459.22 --> 1465.94] because what a cool experience, but they'll be able to recognize everything you say and use that +[1465.94 --> 1471.30] information. Facebook wants to own your information. And that is what this is all about fundamentally. +[1471.30 --> 1479.54] And okay. Zuckerberg said a really stupid thing in a text message and it's old and it's old and he was +[1479.54 --> 1484.10] stupid and he was young and I'm sure he would be the first to admit that that was a super stupid +[1484.10 --> 1491.62] thing to say and he would take it back a hundred percent today if he could. But it did happen. Um, +[1493.30 --> 1500.26] so you guys can read into that whatever you want, but I do believe that while people don't change much, +[1500.82 --> 1506.74] I think they can grow up and I hope that that was just a young college guy having a... +[1506.74 --> 1511.22] And I think that's when it was only tied into Harvard and like a lot of things have changed +[1511.22 --> 1514.82] since then. Yeah. Another thing that people are worried about with the Facebook thing is again, +[1514.82 --> 1519.54] all of your data, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I know in one of Carmack's tweets, he said it +[1519.54 --> 1523.94] like, if you guys blog or whatever about this, I'm going to pay attention. So, and he said like, +[1523.94 --> 1527.70] things that you're worried about and ways that can be fixed and stuff like that. So if you do have +[1527.70 --> 1533.30] it and be listening, that's really cool. Hi. Also, um, like creepiness factor, try to control the +[1533.30 --> 1537.06] creepiness factor, make sure it's open, make sure people know what's going on because I think that's +[1537.06 --> 1541.14] honestly the biggest reason why people are scared of Facebook is just the fact that Facebook can be +[1541.14 --> 1549.06] really creepy. Um, so that's probably the biggest thing I'd say. Um, the camera that is now on Oculus, +[1549.06 --> 1553.06] people, we don't really have it yet. So we don't know if it's actually taking images or if it's only +[1553.06 --> 1557.62] scanning for IR LEDs, but who knows what will happen in the future. Maybe there's an actual camera +[1557.62 --> 1562.50] fixed on that thing. Um, that's... And you know what's scary is I would opt in for the camera model +[1562.50 --> 1568.90] for sure. I already, yeah. Yeah. Like, okay. Even if they told me, even if, even if it was an option, +[1569.46 --> 1575.06] if someone was like, look, we can put an IR tracker one only and you can put IR, you know, +[1575.06 --> 1579.22] kits around in your room or whatever else, or we can give you one with a camera. You can get like a +[1579.22 --> 1583.78] skeleton frame. Yeah, no, I know. And like that's... I would take the camera one, even if I knew that +[1583.78 --> 1587.38] they were looking at what I was looking at because of it's going to be such a great experience. Exactly. +[1587.38 --> 1591.46] So a lot of people are going to do that. So like I said, what we're worried about is the creepiness +[1591.46 --> 1596.90] factor. So just try and keep that under control. All right. What's our next one? Our next one is +[1596.90 --> 1600.50] Oculus is not connected to Facebook. This is just kind of funny. It's just kind of funny. Won't +[1600.50 --> 1604.82] spend much time on this one. Taking a break from the hate. So during the, and now actually, +[1604.82 --> 1611.14] which is kind of hilarious, this was taken earlier today. It's not like a, yeah, I do. Yeah. I've seen +[1611.14 --> 1615.22] people screenshot that. That's my screenshot though, because I couldn't find it at the time. But Oculus had not +[1615.22 --> 1618.82] connected with Facebook during the campaign and they still haven't on Kickstarter at least, +[1618.82 --> 1623.22] which is just kind of hilarious. John Carmack may or may not even have a Facebook account. There's +[1623.22 --> 1627.94] a Facebook account for John Carmack up right now, but it looks like super public figure Facebook +[1627.94 --> 1633.38] account. And like the title is Godfather of moving 3d images or something like that. I doubt that he put +[1633.38 --> 1637.54] that in there. Yeah. That doesn't seem like his style. No. And it's not like verified or anything. He did +[1637.54 --> 1641.70] tweet that he'll probably have to get a Facebook account now. But I don't think he's rushing to do it. +[1641.70 --> 1646.58] He's probably busy coding because he's kind of awesome at that. Anyways, moving on to the thing +[1646.58 --> 1651.46] that had me super pissed off at the beginning. The reason why I thought the entire thing was just +[1651.46 --> 1656.02] ruined and why I basically cried over Twitter for a little while. And the reason that a lot of people +[1656.02 --> 1661.86] felt this way, this New York times post was brutal. And honestly, where I think most of the hate came +[1661.86 --> 1668.26] from, um, just jumping into saying what's exactly in the article, according to a person, a person involved +[1668.26 --> 1674.18] with the deal who was not allowed to speak publicly because he was not authorized by either company. +[1674.18 --> 1680.26] Facebook eventually plans to redesign the Oculus hardware and rebrand it with a Facebook interface and logo. +[1680.26 --> 1684.26] Holy crap. Which didn't even make any sense. No. Really. Like, what does that even mean? +[1684.26 --> 1690.26] But that's why, that's one of the reasons why I was so mad. Right. Because the whole deal didn't make sense on the surface. +[1690.26 --> 1696.18] It's a social network acquiring VR gaming company. And then it's like rebranding and calling, what the heck? +[1696.18 --> 1702.26] Yeah. Like, what, what is this exactly? Since then, Facebook has made their intentions much more clear. +[1702.26 --> 1710.18] Yeah. And this was, was wholeheartedly denied. It was hammered down, but it sat there for a while. +[1710.18 --> 1716.26] Yeah. And let a lot of people stew. And it was, it was scary. And I love how it's like a small part of that article too. +[1716.26 --> 1721.26] Yeah. And it's not like a, like a, you know how they pop it out and make it big and make it a different color and all that kind of stuff. +[1721.26 --> 1722.18] Yeah. Yeah. Like The Verge does. +[1722.18 --> 1728.26] Yeah. They didn't do that with it or anything. Like, it's, it's kind of at the bottom, but it's like the most important thing in the entire article. +[1728.26 --> 1733.26] Uh, but yeah, that's been shut down pretty quick. So no longer worry about that. +[1733.26 --> 1739.26] Um, and then other things start coming out. Like the, people are saying it's an internal call. +[1739.26 --> 1745.26] Um, I've heard a lot of news that it actually wasn't an internal call. It was quite public, but I have no idea which is true. +[1745.26 --> 1751.26] Either way, I don't care. It was a, as far as I know, an investor call for Oculus and Facebook. +[1751.26 --> 1758.26] And there's some QA and Mark Zuckerberg's on the call and it's fairly interesting, but almost all the way through the call, there's the part that most people actually listened to. +[1758.26 --> 1766.26] I ended up listening to the whole thing, but this is the part that people really cared about. It's really long. I don't know if I'll actually read through the whole thing. +[1766.26 --> 1768.26] How about I read it? I'm fast. Sure, go. +[1768.26 --> 1774.26] Alright. So he says, so this is from Zuckerberg. He says, in terms of our business model, we're clearly not a hardware company. +[1774.26 --> 1778.26] We're not going to try and make a profit off the device itself in the long term. +[1778.26 --> 1786.26] And we see this as a software and services thing where if we can make it so that this becomes a network, so that people can be communicating and buying things like virtual goods, +[1786.26 --> 1790.26] there might be adverts in the world, but we need to figure that out down the line. +[1790.26 --> 1796.26] So that's probably where the business will come from. But for the foreseeable future, the main goal that we have is building out the product, +[1796.26 --> 1802.26] using the different levers that Facebook has to make the technology affordable and to make it ubiquitous. +[1802.26 --> 1806.26] And to use the different technologies that Facebook has developed to bring it to market as soon as possible. +[1806.26 --> 1813.26] So there you go. That's the plan. Whether that makes it any less scary to you or not, for me it doesn't at all. +[1813.26 --> 1820.26] Clearly, the plan is investing in the platform and making it successful. So that's the priority. And they will figure out the monetization later. +[1820.26 --> 1826.26] So it's the whole internet company startup model, except this time being applied to an actual piece of hardware. +[1826.26 --> 1833.26] Because that piece of hardware is so directly tied into the software experience, they can't exist without each other. +[1833.26 --> 1835.26] Now this... I covered that okay? +[1835.26 --> 1839.26] Yeah, this scared and didn't scare a lot of people for multiple reasons. +[1839.26 --> 1843.26] It scared people because it was an internal call. The second that came out, everyone freaked out. +[1843.26 --> 1845.26] Whether or not that's even true, I don't know. +[1845.26 --> 1848.26] People only heard the advertisement part and freaked out. +[1848.26 --> 1849.26] One thing you have to remember... +[1849.26 --> 1850.26] But he has to say that. +[1850.26 --> 1852.26] This is an investment call. +[1852.26 --> 1856.26] This wasn't a... this wasn't the public post on Facebook. This was an investment call. +[1856.26 --> 1863.26] Mark Zuckerberg can't just be like, well, yeah, I want to play VR games, so I bought this company so that I can make this thing even better. +[1863.26 --> 1866.26] I don't think that's it. Although it would be super cool if he was a closet VR nerd. +[1866.26 --> 1873.26] If you read his Facebook posts, it's the most like, oh my god, I love this thing, post that I've seen of anyone ever. +[1873.26 --> 1874.26] So, who knows? +[1874.26 --> 1875.26] That's a CEO. +[1875.26 --> 1884.26] There may even be a little bit of that, and we can hope for that because if he's truly passionate about the technology, then I kind of go, okay. +[1885.26 --> 1886.26] Maybe it'll be okay. +[1886.26 --> 1894.26] But then probably not because in the future, he'll still have to bend to the needs of his investors and monetize the heck out of the platform. +[1894.26 --> 1897.26] But then by the time that happens, you're talking years in the future. +[1897.26 --> 1898.26] Yeah, potentially. +[1898.26 --> 1899.26] Something else will be there as well. +[1899.26 --> 1900.26] Yep. +[1900.26 --> 1901.26] It like doesn't matter. +[1901.26 --> 1903.26] There will be a competitor for Rift. +[1903.26 --> 1909.26] So, we have to hope that they build up the technology, drive everything further, make this stuff because- +[1909.26 --> 1911.26] Make it profitable for developers to develop for VR. +[1911.26 --> 1912.26] Yeah, definitely. +[1912.26 --> 1918.26] And then hopefully competitors will jump in the fray because even if you're still a huge fan of Oculus, it doesn't matter. +[1918.26 --> 1919.26] Competitors are good. +[1919.26 --> 1920.26] Competition is always good. +[1920.26 --> 1921.26] It drives innovation. +[1921.26 --> 1922.26] Competition is good. +[1922.26 --> 1923.26] So, anyways. +[1923.26 --> 1924.26] Okay, moving on. +[1924.26 --> 1925.26] So there's some other weird stuff. +[1925.26 --> 1930.26] So this is actually largely stuff that I haven't seen around a ton, but things that I've noticed over the last little time. +[1930.26 --> 1935.26] So starting off with Oculus dropping out of the Immersive Technology Alliance. +[1935.26 --> 1939.26] Kind of awkwardly dropping out of the Immersive Technology Alliance. +[1939.26 --> 1940.26] Super awkward. +[1940.26 --> 1941.26] Yeah. +[1941.26 --> 1949.26] The Immersive Technology Alliance is a non-profit games collective that is focused on bringing stuff like augmented reality, virtual reality, 3D, and gesture control technology to the masses. +[1949.26 --> 1950.26] It's an alliance. +[1950.26 --> 1951.26] There's tons of these things. +[1951.26 --> 1952.26] There's the DVD Alliance. +[1952.26 --> 1953.26] There's tons of them. +[1953.26 --> 1968.26] Basically any standard, whether it's like USB or DisplayPort is going to have some kind of group of individuals or companies or investors or entities that manage the standard and drive it forward. +[1968.26 --> 1972.26] Because if they don't, things get kind of insane usually. +[1972.26 --> 1979.26] So, it's like the high profile virtual reality company Oculus Rift recently dropped out of this alliance. +[1979.26 --> 1981.26] But Oculus claims they were never a part of it. +[1981.26 --> 1985.26] Yet, the ITA guys are saying they were a big part of it. +[1985.26 --> 1992.26] And actually helped them move from what they were previously known as, which was S3DGA, to the newly named ITA. +[1992.26 --> 1995.26] And Oculus actually had them like remove their branding from their website and everything. +[1995.26 --> 2000.26] And basically just dropped the ball, moved back as far as they possibly could and say I was never playing. +[2000.26 --> 2002.26] Which is interesting. +[2002.26 --> 2004.26] And this is not the newest news. +[2004.26 --> 2007.26] This was from a little while ago. +[2007.26 --> 2009.26] I think I actually shortly mentioned it on the show. +[2009.26 --> 2011.26] But because I didn't really know what it meant at the time. +[2011.26 --> 2012.26] Yeah. +[2012.26 --> 2013.26] I didn't make it a huge topic. +[2013.26 --> 2016.26] It's just weird and the timing is a little bit off. +[2016.26 --> 2017.26] So, they basically... +[2017.26 --> 2025.26] The ITA is saying that they got their first official notification that Oculus was leaving the alliance late in the evening on March 15th. +[2025.26 --> 2026.26] Yeah. +[2026.26 --> 2030.26] So, this was pretty close to when the deal happened. +[2030.26 --> 2031.26] And it's just... +[2031.26 --> 2034.26] This article is super, super weird. +[2034.26 --> 2035.26] It's on Polygon.com. +[2035.26 --> 2036.26] I don't think I ever said that. +[2036.26 --> 2037.26] There's not a lot of comments on it. +[2037.26 --> 2040.26] And no one's commented on it since like the 18th. +[2040.26 --> 2041.26] Right. +[2041.26 --> 2042.26] So, it's... +[2042.26 --> 2043.26] Yeah. +[2043.26 --> 2044.26] It's... +[2044.26 --> 2045.26] I don't know. +[2045.26 --> 2050.26] I just find that's interesting because they got acquired by Facebook and then they locked off from the alliance that's trying to make some sort of standard. +[2050.26 --> 2051.26] So, that's interesting. +[2051.26 --> 2054.26] Then, if you click on the thread... +[2054.26 --> 2057.26] So, this is where everything kind of started. +[2057.26 --> 2061.26] This is MTBS3D.com. +[2061.26 --> 2063.26] I always screw that up. +[2063.26 --> 2064.26] Which is where... +[2064.26 --> 2066.26] Palmer was a huge member of this forum. +[2066.26 --> 2072.26] And this is where the epic, like massive 4,235 post threads started. +[2072.26 --> 2073.26] And this is... +[2073.26 --> 2074.26] Yeah. +[2074.26 --> 2075.26] This is just a big deal. +[2075.26 --> 2076.26] So, it's a little F for... +[2076.26 --> 2077.26] Where is it? +[2077.26 --> 2078.26] Sell out to a large company. +[2078.26 --> 2084.26] You can see a big thread where he answers a whole bunch of questions. +[2084.26 --> 2086.26] And right in the middle of it, he says, +[2086.26 --> 2088.26] Oculus is going forward in a big way. +[2088.26 --> 2093.26] But in a way that still lets me focus on the community first and not sell out to a large company. +[2093.26 --> 2100.26] A lot of people were very upset about this comment because community first, not sell out to a large company. +[2100.26 --> 2104.26] So, now people are saying, are you no longer community first because you sold out to a large company. +[2104.26 --> 2114.26] The problems with this are, if you jump into the next one, the big $75 million investment that happened not way too long ago. +[2114.26 --> 2116.26] The guy that did that works for Facebook. +[2116.26 --> 2119.26] Actually, if you check out the board of directors, which I also have linked here. +[2119.26 --> 2121.26] This is where I was telling you you're going to get into rapid fire. +[2121.26 --> 2122.26] Don't worry, I got this. +[2122.26 --> 2125.26] If you check out the board of directors, you can see him there. +[2125.26 --> 2127.26] Mark Andreessen, I believe. +[2127.26 --> 2133.26] You can see him on the board of directors for Facebook and he was a huge investment pool right there. +[2133.26 --> 2137.26] And then, quotes that have been fairly recently coming out of Palmer saying, +[2137.26 --> 2141.26] Oculus has already sold out by raising venture capital money. +[2141.26 --> 2144.26] Because they had these investors that were able to control them a little bit. +[2144.26 --> 2145.26] And Palmer said that a lot. +[2145.26 --> 2147.26] They already sold out. +[2147.26 --> 2149.26] And then they were acquired by Facebook. +[2149.26 --> 2154.26] The same company that their big $75 million investor is on the board of directors for. +[2154.26 --> 2156.26] Which is really interesting. +[2156.26 --> 2159.26] And it also even seems like he was trying to tell us. +[2159.26 --> 2162.26] Valve knew something on February 28th. +[2162.26 --> 2166.26] This is a quote from an article where a guy from Valve went to visit Oculus. +[2166.26 --> 2167.26] He said, +[2167.26 --> 2173.26] The demo stuck me in a simple room whose walls were textured with financial data for Facebook from some website. +[2173.26 --> 2174.26] An odd choice. +[2174.26 --> 2175.26] Yeah. +[2175.26 --> 2177.26] There's a little red cube bouncing around the room. +[2177.26 --> 2180.26] And the desire to avoid it was extremely strong. +[2180.26 --> 2183.26] A dodgeball slash laser field game immediately popped into my mind. +[2183.26 --> 2186.26] But as I mentioned before, a tether really hurts this type of idea. +[2186.26 --> 2189.26] The part that I really paid attention to when reading this, +[2189.26 --> 2191.26] And this was actually brought to my attention, I didn't notice this. +[2191.26 --> 2196.26] Was the financial data for Facebook from some website just being plastered all over the walls. +[2196.26 --> 2197.26] On February 28th. +[2197.26 --> 2203.26] It's interesting in combination with him saying that they were already sold out by raising venture capital. +[2203.26 --> 2205.26] And then having that just kind of randomly leaked out there. +[2205.26 --> 2207.26] It's really weird to just do that. +[2207.26 --> 2208.26] Anyways. +[2208.26 --> 2213.26] These are all the random crap that I've found over the last little while. +[2213.26 --> 2216.26] You can tell he's a little into this, hey? +[2216.26 --> 2217.26] I didn't really sleep much this week. +[2217.26 --> 2222.26] Another thing that happened was, if you go to the corporate Reddit attack or framing link that I have there. +[2222.26 --> 2223.26] Come on, don't worry, man. +[2223.26 --> 2228.26] Was weird ditto posts all over technology and gaming. +[2228.26 --> 2233.26] This was again, this is not a screenshot by me, this is just something I found that someone else brought up. +[2233.26 --> 2237.26] But you don't really know what angle to go with this. +[2237.26 --> 2239.26] Because why would... +[2239.26 --> 2240.26] Okay, we should explain what this is. +[2240.26 --> 2241.26] Okay, sure. +[2241.26 --> 2242.26] Okay, just so you, in case you guys... +[2242.26 --> 2250.26] So, basically, defending the deal, like right after it happened, there were these, what appear to be shill accounts, +[2250.26 --> 2256.26] popping up on Reddit, posting copy-paste responses or very similar responses to people hating on it. +[2256.26 --> 2257.26] Okay, go ahead. +[2257.26 --> 2258.26] Kind of all over the place. +[2258.26 --> 2261.26] And a lot of times they were very new accounts and stuff like that. +[2261.26 --> 2262.26] Yeah. +[2262.26 --> 2268.26] But it's, that doesn't really make a lot of sense for the direction, the angle that anyone at Oculus was taking, +[2268.26 --> 2270.26] or anyone at Facebook was taking, to be completely honest. +[2270.26 --> 2271.26] Yeah. +[2271.26 --> 2272.26] So we don't know whether or not this was... +[2272.26 --> 2275.26] It could have just as easily been someone trying to... +[2275.26 --> 2276.26] To frame them. +[2276.26 --> 2288.26] Destroy any sort of positive sentiment that might have existed by pretending to be someone trying to defend what was going on in the most obvious, horrible, guerrilla marketing way. +[2288.26 --> 2291.26] So this is interesting. +[2291.26 --> 2293.26] We don't know what side of the field it even plays on. +[2293.26 --> 2297.26] Or did a whole bunch of people just happen to decide to copy and paste each other for karma? +[2297.26 --> 2298.26] That might have been it. +[2298.26 --> 2300.26] So who knows? +[2300.26 --> 2301.26] Not sure. +[2301.26 --> 2302.26] Looks fishy. +[2302.26 --> 2304.26] We don't know which side of it it's on. +[2304.26 --> 2306.26] It's just something interesting that we noticed. +[2306.26 --> 2309.26] Um, then things started popping up. +[2309.26 --> 2311.26] This is again going through somewhat of a timeline. +[2311.26 --> 2316.26] Um, then things started popping up of basically every Kickstarter I've ever heard of. +[2316.26 --> 2321.26] Um, especially the ones that I've been a part of because I've now seen updates by a few of them being like, +[2321.26 --> 2323.26] Whoa, whoa, whoa, we're not selling to Facebook. +[2323.26 --> 2327.26] Even like some super random stuff that has nothing to do with anything. +[2327.26 --> 2329.26] Being like, Whoa guys, it's cool. +[2329.26 --> 2334.26] So people are begging Chris Roberts not to sell the Facebook, which I found hilarious. +[2334.26 --> 2338.26] That was the main one I wanted to show because we're, we're fairly into star citizen. +[2338.26 --> 2342.26] So I wanted to bring that one up, but there's been stuff for tons of different Kickstarters, not just star citizen. +[2342.26 --> 2344.26] There's even, I forgot to put it in here. +[2344.26 --> 2348.26] There's even a Kickstarter running right now that has a stretch goal of $2 billion. +[2348.26 --> 2352.26] That's like, we'll try to buy Oculus from Facebook, which is hilarious. +[2352.26 --> 2363.26] Um, someone was joking, saying that there should be a $2 billion stretch goal for CIG saying that, um, it's preventing Facebook from buying CIG. +[2363.26 --> 2366.26] A lot of people were joking, but there was actually some legitimate fear in there. +[2366.26 --> 2371.26] And it has started an interesting question on, uh, Kickstarters for technology. +[2371.26 --> 2380.26] So a lot of people feel like they're heavily invested in something when they kickstart it and feel like they should, they're kind of a part of the company, but you're not. +[2380.26 --> 2381.26] Yeah. +[2381.26 --> 2386.26] You're donating and then you're getting something back for donating, but you're not getting a part of the company back for donating. +[2386.26 --> 2394.26] And while it feels like that, and the kick, the, the culture around Kickstarter is really heavily around like community, community, and you're a part of this. +[2394.26 --> 2397.26] And this is, this is you, you made this happen, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[2397.26 --> 2398.26] Really? +[2398.26 --> 2401.26] You might've made it happen, but it doesn't matter. +[2401.26 --> 2402.26] You're not actually a part of that company. +[2402.26 --> 2403.26] You're not an investor. +[2403.26 --> 2406.26] And if you look at the Kickstarter, they promised you a dev kit one. +[2406.26 --> 2407.26] You got a dev kit one. +[2407.26 --> 2408.26] They shipped you a dev kit one. +[2408.26 --> 2410.26] Or whatever other tier you were on. +[2410.26 --> 2411.26] Or whatever tier you were on. +[2411.26 --> 2415.26] So any obligation that Oculus had to you is over. +[2415.26 --> 2424.26] And no matter how depressing that seems, because honestly, when I kickstart a lot of things, I'm kickstarting it not necessarily just because of what I get back from what I'm donating at. +[2424.26 --> 2431.26] A lot of games, especially a month or two after the release for a lot of these indie games are way cheaper than my Kickstarter price. +[2431.26 --> 2433.26] I'm kickstarting them because I want it to happen. +[2433.26 --> 2434.26] Yeah. +[2434.26 --> 2436.26] But that doesn't mean that I have an investment in the company. +[2436.26 --> 2442.26] So then, I mean, maybe you're, maybe you're happy about the Facebook thing because now it's going to happen even more and better, supposedly. +[2442.26 --> 2443.26] I don't think there's too many of those. +[2443.26 --> 2444.26] I don't think there's too many of those. +[2444.26 --> 2445.26] But that's, that's possible. +[2445.26 --> 2448.26] Um, another fairly noteworthy rant to bring up. +[2448.26 --> 2450.26] This was a, one that was fairly early on. +[2450.26 --> 2451.26] This was on Reddit again. +[2451.26 --> 2453.26] A lot of this happened on Reddit. +[2453.26 --> 2458.26] Um, people just pointing out that holy crap, John Carmack is a Facebook employee now. +[2458.26 --> 2459.26] Um. +[2459.26 --> 2460.26] Heh. +[2460.26 --> 2461.26] Go figure, eh? +[2461.26 --> 2463.26] It's, it's just weird to think about. +[2463.26 --> 2464.26] Like, I don't even know what to say. +[2464.26 --> 2465.26] It's just- +[2465.26 --> 2466.26] Like, hurts my brain. +[2466.26 --> 2467.26] Wait, what? +[2467.26 --> 2468.26] What? +[2468.26 --> 2470.26] Anyways, but he's not, he is, but he's not. +[2470.26 --> 2472.26] Like, he's, he's working for Oculus. +[2472.26 --> 2473.26] I don't know. +[2473.26 --> 2474.26] Whatever. +[2474.26 --> 2476.26] Um, people posting Facebook as an advertising company. +[2476.26 --> 2480.26] They sell data so that they're paying customers, the advertisers, can target their marketing. +[2480.26 --> 2488.26] Um, and it wouldn't surprise, it wouldn't surprise anyone if in a couple years you won't be able to use it without supplying data to Facebook, wittingly or not. +[2488.26 --> 2490.26] Eye tracking interests, this part is me. +[2490.26 --> 2496.26] Eye tracking, what you're interested in, and it's really easy to know if you're paying attention or looking at something when it's strapped to your face. +[2496.26 --> 2501.26] Can you imagine how effectively you can sell ad impressions? +[2501.26 --> 2509.26] Or like, how much more effectively, uh, graphic designers could design their ads to make it so that you look at them. +[2509.26 --> 2514.26] And all the kind of subconscious crap that goes on that people don't even think about. +[2514.26 --> 2519.26] I mean, when you go shopping at a store, you ever notice there's like a double door in like every store? +[2519.26 --> 2520.26] Yeah, the decompression zone. +[2520.26 --> 2522.26] That is a psychological thing. +[2522.26 --> 2525.26] There's, there's this, there's this buffer zone between... +[2525.26 --> 2527.26] Yeah, it's called the decompression zone. +[2527.26 --> 2529.26] Not shopping and shopping. +[2529.26 --> 2530.26] Yeah. +[2530.26 --> 2531.26] That they have created very intentionally. +[2531.26 --> 2537.26] You know what's funny is when I was a kid, I always thought that it was like to keep the heat in or out. +[2537.26 --> 2539.26] I think that's what they say. +[2539.26 --> 2540.26] Yeah. +[2540.26 --> 2541.26] But it's, it's known to be a decompression zone thing. +[2541.26 --> 2542.26] There's other things too. +[2542.26 --> 2544.26] A lot of the tile in the middle of malls is shiny. +[2544.26 --> 2547.26] And then the tile in the stores is not shiny or it's carpet or something like that. +[2547.26 --> 2548.26] It often, it's really shiny. +[2548.26 --> 2550.26] So that you move faster and settle somewhere. +[2550.26 --> 2554.26] Yeah, it's usually shiny in the middle of the mall and not super shiny in a store. +[2554.26 --> 2555.26] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[2555.26 --> 2556.26] It's very bland. +[2556.26 --> 2558.26] The smells that they'll, that they'll run through stores. +[2558.26 --> 2564.26] I mean, all these things are designed to make you buy without even knowing why you're doing it. +[2564.26 --> 2570.26] And, uh, eye tracking is going to be a real good way to make that even more effective. +[2570.26 --> 2579.26] Um, that being said, it is, there's, there's a bunch of posts in Palmer's personal Reddit account that talks about this type of stuff. +[2579.26 --> 2580.26] And we'll be getting into that later. +[2580.26 --> 2582.26] Again, we're going through in fairly linear lines. +[2582.26 --> 2583.26] Just keep going, keep going. +[2583.26 --> 2584.26] They know we're getting into that later. +[2584.26 --> 2585.26] It's okay. +[2585.26 --> 2588.26] Um, so the community is mad about the change of pace. +[2588.26 --> 2604.26] This was a fairly interesting one because messages that came from Carmack, the CTO of Oculus VR and a very important dude saying stuff like for a certain segment of the population, the hacker slash maker crowd is going to be awesomely cool to work with. +[2604.26 --> 2606.26] That was the message before. +[2606.26 --> 2614.26] The message now is this being from, um, Brendan, I don't actually know how to pronounce his last name. +[2614.26 --> 2615.26] That's really embarrassing. +[2615.26 --> 2623.26] The CEO of Oculus VR saying, we believe virtual reality will be heavily defined by social experiences that connect people in magical new ways. +[2623.26 --> 2632.26] That's very different than the heartbeat kind of idea that was Oculus before, which is like, yeah, hackers and makers. +[2632.26 --> 2636.26] It's more social experience now, which is interesting. +[2636.26 --> 2637.26] But then at the same time, +[2637.26 --> 2638.26] And he used the word magical. +[2638.26 --> 2639.26] Thank you, Mr. Jobs. +[2639.26 --> 2640.26] Yeah. +[2640.26 --> 2641.26] Yeah. +[2641.26 --> 2642.26] This is a magical device. +[2642.26 --> 2645.26] At the same time though, this is two different people. +[2645.26 --> 2648.26] And if you talk to Carmack, he's still very gaming focused. +[2648.26 --> 2650.26] And if you talk to Palmer, he's still very gaming focused. +[2650.26 --> 2654.26] This is just quotes that I got from a picture that someone posted on Reddit. +[2654.26 --> 2661.26] Um, Brendan, while this, this is a specific quote, again, this is, this is grabbing snippet quotes. +[2661.26 --> 2663.26] Grabbing snippet quotes isn't always applicable. +[2663.26 --> 2669.26] If you go talk to Brendan at, if you go watch some of his videos that he's been in at conventions, +[2669.26 --> 2671.26] A lot of time he talks about gaming. +[2671.26 --> 2673.26] And some of them have been very recent. +[2673.26 --> 2674.26] They're still talking about gaming. +[2674.26 --> 2679.26] He's just talking about an idea that they haven't really expressed as much necessarily in the past. +[2679.26 --> 2682.26] So I'm not sure how much that matters, but a lot of people were up in arms about that. +[2682.26 --> 2690.26] Something that was also really interesting was the, are you done with VR straw poll that came up, which ended up being huge. +[2690.26 --> 2701.26] Um, I'm done with Oculus VR dead to me was one of the options that had 11,032 votes when I last looked at it and was accounting for 50% of the votes. +[2701.26 --> 2705.26] Um, I, I will withhold judgment for now and see how this plays out. +[2705.26 --> 2711.26] Only had 9,947 votes compared to the previous 11,000 and something ringing in at 45% of the vote. +[2711.26 --> 2712.26] They can see it now. +[2712.26 --> 2713.26] Okay, that's helpful. +[2713.26 --> 2721.26] Um, and then the, the, the part, the people saying they're okay with Facebook was only 4%, which is like nothing. +[2721.26 --> 2725.26] Um, but then a lot of this was very reaction. +[2725.26 --> 2733.26] This, this, this straw poll was created extremely early and I wish we could get every single person that responded on that to respond again and see how it would change. +[2733.26 --> 2744.26] I don't necessarily think the number of people saying that Facebook is okay would necessarily increase because no matter how you look at that, look at this, I don't think a ton of people are super stoked about the idea of Facebook. +[2744.26 --> 2752.26] Um, but I think more people would probably side with the, I will withhold judgment for, for now and see how this plays out. +[2752.26 --> 2760.26] Because if you have to put your trust in anyone, Palmer, Carmack and all those guys, those are some people to put your trust in. +[2760.26 --> 2768.26] People have been describing Carmack as the canary in the coal mine and I don't really know any better way of actually saying that because that's a really good way of putting it. +[2768.26 --> 2782.26] If he had a problem with it, then we'd know about it and I, I guess at least we'll have a heads up when stuff's about to hit the fan because when Carmack leaves Oculus, then we'll know. +[2782.26 --> 2783.26] There's your heads up. +[2783.26 --> 2784.26] There's your heads up. +[2784.26 --> 2790.26] And Abrash joining, like that's another person to pay attention to and follow and honestly, if anyone can do it, it's these guys. +[2790.26 --> 2795.26] So I hope they make it because, I don't know, it's scary. +[2795.26 --> 2797.26] Um, then, then things start happening. +[2797.26 --> 2800.26] I actually, hold on a second, I actually created a new straw poll. +[2800.26 --> 2803.26] So, we'd love for you guys to vote on this one. +[2803.26 --> 2806.26] I'm just gonna post it in the chat a few times here so that you guys can see it. +[2806.26 --> 2813.26] Only click the ones that are posted by me because it's sort of a thing for people to just click, make their own straw polls. +[2813.26 --> 2815.26] Anyway, so go ahead, check that out. +[2815.26 --> 2819.26] We'd love to hear what you guys think and see how it compares to the original results. +[2819.26 --> 2820.26] Okay, go ahead, Luke. +[2820.26 --> 2823.26] Alright, so next we're moving into, we're still in kind of negative stuff. +[2823.26 --> 2826.26] So, Oculus CTO bails on GTC due to illness. +[2826.26 --> 2829.26] Now, if you try to go to this thread, it's not gonna work. +[2829.26 --> 2830.26] Oh, okay. +[2830.26 --> 2832.26] It was pulled down by Nvidia's blog. +[2832.26 --> 2835.26] Nvidia's blog was amazing. +[2835.26 --> 2837.26] It's too bad we didn't, did you like copy it? +[2837.26 --> 2839.26] I don't have a screenshot or anything. +[2839.26 --> 2841.26] I should have, I should have thought about that. +[2841.26 --> 2847.26] But, there's a new post on Nvidia's blog now actually, where if you can find that, I should have put that in here. +[2847.26 --> 2849.26] I was rushing near the end. +[2849.26 --> 2852.26] There's a new post saying like, holy crap, he's awesome. +[2852.26 --> 2854.26] Because he ended up showing up. +[2854.26 --> 2857.26] Ended up being a very last minute kind of ditch effort kind of thing. +[2857.26 --> 2860.26] They got about 100 people there just like at the very last possible second. +[2860.26 --> 2863.26] And he ended up talking to them and apparently it was great. +[2863.26 --> 2865.26] Yeah, here we go. +[2865.26 --> 2866.26] Speaks at GTC. +[2866.26 --> 2867.26] Yeah. +[2867.26 --> 2870.26] Very, very different than their previous article. +[2870.26 --> 2873.26] Which was like, begs off attendance, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[2873.26 --> 2875.26] Like super not stoked. +[2875.26 --> 2876.26] They're happy with him now. +[2876.26 --> 2880.26] But, again, this was playing into the negative feeling of the whole internet. +[2880.26 --> 2882.26] Where everyone's like, oh, he's not ill. +[2882.26 --> 2884.26] He's just trying to dodge our questions. +[2884.26 --> 2886.26] Honestly, I don't even necessarily think that was a thing. +[2886.26 --> 2891.26] He was very possibly ill because of how much crap has been being thrown at them. +[2891.26 --> 2892.26] Because like... +[2892.26 --> 2894.26] They've been busy. +[2894.26 --> 2895.26] It's the... +[2895.26 --> 2896.26] Yeah. +[2896.26 --> 2897.26] I don't know. +[2897.26 --> 2898.26] I doubt any of that team has really slept much over the last while. +[2898.26 --> 2902.26] Not that you'd be able to relate to becoming ill because no sleep and lots of work. +[2902.26 --> 2903.26] Yeah. +[2903.26 --> 2904.26] Yeah. +[2904.26 --> 2905.26] I think people can probably remember that. +[2905.26 --> 2907.26] Although, I bet you Carmack's fine. +[2907.26 --> 2911.26] Because as far as I can tell, he just like, doesn't care and is still programming. +[2911.26 --> 2912.26] Which is kind of awesome. +[2912.26 --> 2918.26] But the rest of the team, especially Palmer, once we get to his Reddit posts, he can... +[2918.26 --> 2920.26] Oh man, I feel bad for Palmer. +[2920.26 --> 2921.26] I feel bad for Palmer. +[2921.26 --> 2923.26] Anyways, moving on to Notch's post. +[2923.26 --> 2925.26] So Notch posted on Twitter. +[2925.26 --> 2928.26] Some people saw the retweet from me. +[2928.26 --> 2933.26] Essentially saying that he has no intention of now creating a Minecraft mod, which he's +[2933.26 --> 2934.26] planning on making. +[2934.26 --> 2935.26] An official one. +[2935.26 --> 2937.26] Because he finds Facebook to be creepy. +[2937.26 --> 2940.26] You heard our quotes earlier from when he was on the Reddit thread. +[2940.26 --> 2942.26] He's been very vocal in this. +[2942.26 --> 2943.26] So a direct quote is, +[2943.26 --> 2949.26] I did not chip in 10 grand to seed a first investment round to build value for a Facebook +[2949.26 --> 2950.26] acquisition. +[2950.26 --> 2951.26] Another quote is, +[2951.26 --> 2954.26] I definitely want to be a part of VR, but I will not work with Facebook. +[2954.26 --> 2956.26] Their motives are too unclear and shifting. +[2956.26 --> 2959.26] And they haven't historically been a stable platform. +[2959.26 --> 2962.26] There's nothing about their history that makes me trust them. +[2962.26 --> 2965.26] And that makes them seem very creepy to me. +[2965.26 --> 2971.26] Now before we get into those comments, I want to jump forward to the scumbag Oculus meme +[2971.26 --> 2972.26] Kickstarter's edition. +[2972.26 --> 2977.26] Which is just kind of interesting and plays into what Notch was talking about. +[2977.26 --> 2978.26] And we'll talk about that in a second. +[2978.26 --> 2980.26] And Palmer's post. +[2980.26 --> 2984.26] When Palmer bounces back at Notch for posting that by saying things like he had the rift for +[2984.26 --> 2988.26] over a year and hasn't even tried the unofficial Minecraft mod. +[2988.26 --> 2990.26] At least at the point of Palmer posting that. +[2990.26 --> 2995.26] Which is, I'm assuming, based on information from when Notch visited that office before the +[2995.26 --> 2996.26] Facebook acquisition. +[2996.26 --> 2997.26] And he said, +[2997.26 --> 3000.26] It's easy to cancel a project that was never even really started anyways. +[3000.26 --> 3003.26] He has merit in both of those points, but... +[3003.26 --> 3005.26] Dun dun dun! +[3005.26 --> 3009.26] I don't think a lot of comments that people have been pointing at him, +[3009.26 --> 3011.26] coming from people like Cliff Bolinski, +[3011.26 --> 3015.26] and coming from even Palmer himself, +[3015.26 --> 3018.26] and a whole bunch of people on the internet, and the guy that posted this Facebook post originally, +[3018.26 --> 3020.26] are necessarily that accurate. +[3020.26 --> 3023.26] They're calling him childish and feeble and all this other kind of stuff. +[3024.26 --> 3028.26] Um, whether or not it's because he just doesn't feel like doing the project and he wants to cancel it, +[3028.26 --> 3031.26] that doesn't seem very true necessarily. +[3031.26 --> 3032.26] Especially when he's saying, +[3032.26 --> 3035.26] I definitely want to be a part of VR, but I will not work with Facebook. +[3035.26 --> 3038.26] He does kind of seem like he wants to be a part of VR. +[3038.26 --> 3040.26] I'm gonna have to take what he's saying on face value. +[3040.26 --> 3041.26] He seemed pretty legit in the past. +[3041.26 --> 3044.26] Um, it does seem like he's doing it on moral reasons. +[3044.26 --> 3047.26] He doesn't like Facebook, so he's canceling the project. +[3047.26 --> 3050.26] That doesn't make him childish just because he doesn't like something, +[3050.26 --> 3052.26] he doesn't want to work with someone. +[3052.26 --> 3057.26] I don't necessarily agree with that, but then again, that's up to you to make that decision. +[3057.26 --> 3059.26] But then, being childish might be taking it public. +[3059.26 --> 3063.26] You could always just cancel the project and not say... +[3063.26 --> 3064.26] That's very true. +[3064.26 --> 3065.26] ...that it's because of something. +[3065.26 --> 3068.26] And then those jumping on the Reddit post and jumping on Twitter and making it a huge deal, +[3068.26 --> 3070.26] that could have been a childish action. +[3070.26 --> 3072.26] But I don't think necessarily... +[3072.26 --> 3073.26] Like that... +[3073.26 --> 3074.26] Like the whole Fez 2 cancellation thing. +[3074.26 --> 3075.26] Oh yeah. +[3075.26 --> 3078.26] Would that have been less drama if he just cancelled it instead of saying, +[3078.26 --> 3080.26] I'm cancelling it because you guys are so mean to me? +[3080.26 --> 3081.26] Yeah. +[3081.26 --> 3082.26] Maybe. +[3082.26 --> 3083.26] And that's a very good point. +[3083.26 --> 3086.26] I don't think the fact that he cancelled it is childish. +[3086.26 --> 3089.26] Maybe the way he went about it, you can decide whatever the heck you want about that. +[3089.26 --> 3091.26] That's just something to throw out there. +[3091.26 --> 3093.26] So here's our new straw poll. +[3093.26 --> 3095.26] So there's been a major shift. +[3095.26 --> 3099.26] The major shift in the perception here. +[3099.26 --> 3105.26] So we had 300 votes for Oculus is dead to me and a full 65%. +[3105.26 --> 3109.26] Actually, okay, so 76% of you are either okay or withholding judgment. +[3109.26 --> 3110.26] Which is interesting. +[3110.26 --> 3120.26] A massive shift and good timing because now we get into the shift where Reddit, our own +[3120.26 --> 3127.26] community, Twitter, a lot of these different communities, the voice that was most heard +[3127.26 --> 3133.26] is now changing to stop attacking them, let's wait and see, all that kind of stuff instead +[3133.26 --> 3137.26] of like direct and sometimes personal attacks and threats to people like Palmer. +[3137.26 --> 3138.26] Which is ridiculous. +[3138.26 --> 3140.26] Which is not okay. +[3140.26 --> 3141.26] Okay, moving on. +[3141.26 --> 3143.26] So, blah blah blah blah blah blah. +[3143.26 --> 3145.26] The hate now directed at those attacking Oculus. +[3145.26 --> 3146.26] Yeah, I got that. +[3146.26 --> 3148.26] Quotes from this are, +[3148.26 --> 3152.26] to jump to personal attacks in an emotional tantrum-esque way and abandon ship without actually +[3152.26 --> 3154.26] realizing where this deal will go. +[3154.26 --> 3158.26] That's a pretty good quote and true to what a lot of people did. +[3158.26 --> 3159.26] I got extremely sad. +[3159.26 --> 3161.26] I'm sure people saw my Twitter account. +[3161.26 --> 3166.26] But that was mainly when I was getting stuff from the New York Times saying that they're +[3166.26 --> 3171.26] going to rebrand everything and a lot of the other information basically saying Oculus +[3171.26 --> 3172.26] is dead. +[3172.26 --> 3173.26] That was depressing. +[3173.26 --> 3175.26] But once I found other things, not nearly as sad. +[3175.26 --> 3178.26] And another quote there saying, chill and let's wait and see. +[3178.26 --> 3179.26] Let's all wait and see. +[3179.26 --> 3182.26] Which I think is, yeah, that's what I'm doing at least. +[3182.26 --> 3183.26] I'm going to wait and see. +[3183.26 --> 3184.26] I'm still very interested. +[3184.26 --> 3186.26] No matter what, I'm not done with VR. +[3186.26 --> 3190.26] From, you know this, and a lot of my friends back in high school that I forced to try +[3190.26 --> 3194.26] it, including my girlfriend who didn't care at all but was a good sport about it. +[3194.26 --> 3197.26] Back when I bought Nia, my neural impulse actuator from Moses Ed. +[3197.26 --> 3199.26] That thing was such a piece of poop. +[3199.26 --> 3200.26] But I don't care. +[3200.26 --> 3201.26] I know. +[3201.26 --> 3202.26] It's new ways of interacting with computers. +[3202.26 --> 3205.26] This has always been what I've cared about most and I find this incredibly interesting. +[3205.26 --> 3209.26] So whether or not it ends up being Oculus, I'm still totally in for VR. +[3209.26 --> 3212.26] Cliff Bolinski weighs in. +[3212.26 --> 3216.26] This was interesting. +[3216.26 --> 3221.26] I wasn't as interested in this as many other things, but it is still fairly interesting +[3221.26 --> 3225.26] because he gained a lot from this whole situation. +[3225.26 --> 3230.26] He was a really big early on investor and something that people have been attacking Oculus over +[3230.26 --> 3233.26] is why the Kickstarter people weren't allowed to be investors. +[3233.26 --> 3235.26] That's like US law. +[3235.26 --> 3236.26] That's not... +[3236.26 --> 3241.26] Oculus wasn't like, yeah, no, let's just give them DK1s instead of shares in the company. +[3241.26 --> 3242.26] That's just how things work. +[3242.26 --> 3244.26] They can't change how the United States works. +[3244.26 --> 3248.26] So you can attack them over different things, but that's not really gonna... +[3248.26 --> 3249.26] It doesn't matter. +[3249.26 --> 3250.26] No. +[3250.26 --> 3252.26] But he was... +[3252.26 --> 3254.26] He's an accredited investor, whatever the heck. +[3254.26 --> 3256.26] So he's able to do this kind of stuff. +[3256.26 --> 3261.26] And he brings up some interesting points and some stuff that's scary and I hope never happens. +[3261.26 --> 3265.26] So he brings up the fact that Facebook has a multi-million user reach. +[3265.26 --> 3270.26] And as people notice with Mark's promoted post, he probably didn't pay for that. +[3270.26 --> 3275.26] He can probably push advertisements in a lot of different places, getting a lot of different eyes on board +[3275.26 --> 3277.26] without paying for it. +[3277.26 --> 3281.26] And quotes coming in earlier on where we were talking about how Facebook is losing a certain audience +[3281.26 --> 3285.26] and saying like, oh, but that's the audience that's going for Oculus Rift right now. +[3285.26 --> 3286.26] Yeah. +[3286.26 --> 3287.26] Okay. +[3287.26 --> 3288.26] So they already have those people. +[3288.26 --> 3291.26] They don't necessarily need those people from Facebook. +[3291.26 --> 3292.26] Yeah. +[3292.26 --> 3294.26] What they can gain from Facebook is the... +[3294.26 --> 3295.26] Mainstream. +[3295.26 --> 3299.26] Multi-billion user reach of people that don't know what the heck Oculus is. +[3299.26 --> 3300.26] Yeah. +[3300.26 --> 3301.26] Um, they can push that out. +[3301.26 --> 3302.26] They can talk to all those people. +[3302.26 --> 3303.26] So that's... +[3303.26 --> 3304.26] That's good. +[3304.26 --> 3308.26] Um, he goes on to talk about WhatsApp and Instagram like we've talked earlier though, +[3308.26 --> 3314.26] but I think we share the same opinion which is like, dude, we haven't had enough time to see that happen at all. +[3314.26 --> 3315.26] At all. +[3315.26 --> 3316.26] At all. +[3316.26 --> 3317.26] Like, come on. +[3317.26 --> 3318.26] Especially WhatsApp. +[3318.26 --> 3319.26] Like, are you kidding me? +[3319.26 --> 3323.26] And we haven't seen Instagram falter in any way. +[3323.26 --> 3331.26] And so we haven't seen how Facebook will react when one of their acquisitions is all of a sudden not looking like a great acquisition anymore. +[3331.26 --> 3334.26] Do they just slash the entire workforce? +[3334.26 --> 3335.26] Do they... +[3335.26 --> 3336.26] Like we've seen Google do? +[3336.26 --> 3339.26] Um, a lot of people are saying why didn't someone like Google buy it? +[3339.26 --> 3340.26] Oh, that would have been worse. +[3340.26 --> 3341.26] That would have been scary. +[3341.26 --> 3346.26] That would have been really scary because if it doesn't do well for a second, Google's just gonna be like, LOL, okay, bye. +[3346.26 --> 3350.26] And then they own all the patents and they'll do something completely different with it. +[3350.26 --> 3351.26] And that might be really cool too. +[3351.26 --> 3352.26] Yeah. +[3352.26 --> 3353.26] But... +[3353.26 --> 3357.26] Google doesn't seem to necessarily care too much about what they acquire. +[3357.26 --> 3362.26] And Google operates on their own...in their own dimensions sometimes. +[3362.26 --> 3363.26] Yeah. +[3363.26 --> 3366.26] Like they're...and it's both great and terrible sometimes. +[3366.26 --> 3367.26] Yeah. +[3367.26 --> 3371.26] But they're thinking about things 10 years from now, 20 years from now. +[3371.26 --> 3381.26] And they're...because they just don't really care about making money on it today, they might just let it sit there behind closed doors in development for another 10 years. +[3381.26 --> 3387.26] Whereas with Facebook, they've been pretty clear, hey, no, the Oculus Rift for gamers is still coming. +[3387.26 --> 3394.26] You're gonna get the iterative...the iterative hardware that comes on the way to us building our grand vision of it. +[3394.26 --> 3395.26] Google doesn't always do that. +[3395.26 --> 3396.26] Yeah, you could see... +[3396.26 --> 3398.26] They build a self-driving car and just put it on the road. +[3398.26 --> 3399.26] Yeah. +[3399.26 --> 3400.26] And it was amazing. +[3400.26 --> 3402.26] And then they were like, okay, cool. +[3402.26 --> 3405.26] It's like, since when have we heard anything about that? +[3405.26 --> 3407.26] It's like, obviously safe. +[3407.26 --> 3409.26] They've totally proved that it's safe. +[3409.26 --> 3411.26] And then they're like, alright, in the garage. +[3411.26 --> 3413.26] Um, and that could have easily happened with this too. +[3413.26 --> 3416.26] We could have seen DK2 come out or not. +[3416.26 --> 3417.26] It's Google, who the heck knows. +[3417.26 --> 3422.26] And then CV1, consumer version 1, could have come out in like 2020. +[3422.26 --> 3423.26] Or something. +[3423.26 --> 3428.26] It was like, lol, 20KP screen or whatever we have by that point. +[3428.26 --> 3429.26] Who knows. +[3430.26 --> 3436.26] Um, one thing that he brings up, the, the like, oh, now we're just gonna get Farmville VR and stuff like that. +[3436.26 --> 3440.26] Like, I, I touched on that earlier when I was talking about the negative points. +[3440.26 --> 3441.26] Yeah. +[3441.26 --> 3444.26] And I said, oh my god, Farmville 3D and Facebook pop-up updates everywhere. +[3445.26 --> 3447.26] I really don't think so. +[3447.26 --> 3449.26] No, I think it'll be more subtle. +[3449.26 --> 3453.26] I mean, I think what they'll do is they'll offer game developers options. +[3453.26 --> 3456.26] Like, this is the way, this is the way I could see it working. +[3456.26 --> 3461.26] Maybe not step one and not step three, where it's like family reunions are all done through Oculus VR. +[3461.26 --> 3463.26] But like a step one and a half or two. +[3463.26 --> 3466.26] Where, think about in-game advertising. +[3466.26 --> 3467.26] The way it's done now. +[3467.26 --> 3471.26] Where there might be, um, like all of the, uh, oh crap, I forget what game did this. +[3471.26 --> 3477.26] Was it Battlefield 4 where they had, like, um, Coke vending machines and you couldn't knock them over? +[3477.26 --> 3478.26] Oh. +[3478.26 --> 3480.26] They were like the one thing in the game that wasn't destructible and like... +[3480.26 --> 3481.26] I don't remember. +[3481.26 --> 3482.26] I don't remember what game it was. +[3482.26 --> 3483.26] Yeah, yeah. +[3483.26 --> 3484.26] But it was like vending machines. +[3484.26 --> 3486.26] So in-game product placement. +[3486.26 --> 3499.26] Facebook could offer Oculus developers, so developers for VR games, the option to build advertising into their game as a way to monetize their platform. +[3499.26 --> 3503.26] They could throw seed funding at them if they're willing to deliver that. +[3503.26 --> 3508.26] And this could be a way for us to, if we're willing to put up with a little bit more advertising. +[3508.26 --> 3513.26] Which I think people have proven time and time again that they'll protest about it. +[3513.26 --> 3516.26] Much like taxes, they'll just suck it up every time. +[3516.26 --> 3522.26] Um, and they won't vote with their wallets until maybe we get to a breaking point and, but we haven't seen it yet. +[3522.26 --> 3525.26] I, I, I'm, I'm interested to see what Adblock does about this. +[3525.26 --> 3527.26] I'm interested to see what Adblock does about this. +[3527.26 --> 3531.26] But that could be a great way for us to get more VR content. +[3531.26 --> 3532.26] Yeah. +[3532.26 --> 3533.26] At least for now. +[3533.26 --> 3534.26] And support developers. +[3534.26 --> 3538.26] For maybe free to play that isn't necessarily microtransaction driven. +[3538.26 --> 3543.26] Um, I'm gonna actually tangent for just a moment here and talk about Bravely Default. +[3543.26 --> 3544.26] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3544.26 --> 3545.26] Um, the game that I just recently started playing. +[3545.26 --> 3546.26] Oh god, yeah. +[3546.26 --> 3554.26] Would I have rather seen some like well integrated product placement in Bravely Default versus what they've done with sleep points? +[3554.26 --> 3561.26] So, sleep point, um, turn based combat just like a Final Fantasy game basically except you can, okay I'm not gonna get into the combat mechanics. +[3561.26 --> 3567.26] So, sleep points allow you to interrupt turn based combat and act at any time. +[3567.26 --> 3574.26] So you can earn them either by leaving the game on with your DS and sleep mode plugged in presumably so it doesn't drain the battery. +[3574.26 --> 3577.26] Uh, for eight hours per sleep point or you can buy them. +[3577.26 --> 3584.26] And so basically you can buy the ability to like go until the enemy dies kind of thing. +[3584.26 --> 3590.26] That to me is a lot more obnoxious than something like a little bit of tastefully applied in game advertising. +[3590.26 --> 3594.26] So, like, yeah, anyway, okay, go ahead, go ahead. +[3594.26 --> 3598.26] Uh, and he has a point and however they end up doing it, who knows. +[3598.26 --> 3601.26] Personally I would like the, I don't mind product placement to be completely honest. +[3601.26 --> 3602.26] Adblockulous. +[3602.26 --> 3603.26] Adblockulous. +[3603.26 --> 3604.26] Adblockulous. +[3604.26 --> 3606.26] It's a comment from someone in Twitch chat. +[3606.26 --> 3614.26] And like, okay, another thing that Cliff Bolinski brings up is the possibility of, uh, some sort of proprietary system which everyone freaked out about. +[3614.26 --> 3618.26] And he's hopefully completely wrong and super off base because that's super dumb. +[3618.26 --> 3619.26] Yeah. +[3619.26 --> 3628.26] Um, but another thing that came out of that was the possibility of, like, maybe when you boot up your computer you load, like, the Oculus store or something. +[3628.26 --> 3629.26] Right. +[3629.26 --> 3634.26] Like, the Oculus store is kind of like Steam but has, uh, VR capable games and you can buy other stuff like that. +[3634.26 --> 3635.26] And there could be other applications. +[3635.26 --> 3636.26] That's the idea of this whole system. +[3636.26 --> 3639.26] Or even an Oculus store from within Steam. +[3639.26 --> 3640.26] Or that. +[3640.26 --> 3649.26] Much like the way we've seen Nvidia integrate their Tegrazone store within Android that allows you to shop the Google Play store, but a tailored version of the Google Play store. +[3649.26 --> 3650.26] I'd be totally okay with that. +[3650.26 --> 3658.26] And it makes sense because Steam's actually been fairly, or Valve has been fairly recently talking about allowing different companies to have their own stores on Steam. +[3658.26 --> 3660.26] So that makes an incredible amount of sense. +[3660.26 --> 3664.26] Except your cynical, uh, your cynical take on that was maybe they just don't feel like managing it anymore. +[3664.26 --> 3665.26] Yeah. +[3665.26 --> 3668.26] Or maybe they're just like, uh, they can just do whatever the heck they want. +[3668.26 --> 3670.26] We'll still scrape all the money and it's fine. +[3670.26 --> 3677.26] Whether or not you think that's positive or negative, uh, that could allow something like Oculus to have their own compatibility store essentially there. +[3677.26 --> 3678.26] Yeah. +[3678.26 --> 3684.26] And then maybe you can, if that's a thing, maybe you could unofficially inject, what was it called? +[3684.26 --> 3685.26] Adboculus. +[3685.26 --> 3686.26] Adboculus, yeah. +[3686.26 --> 3688.26] Maybe you could integrate that in some way. +[3688.26 --> 3689.26] Um, I don't know. +[3689.26 --> 3695.26] The, the, the Cliff Belinsky thing is really long and I preferred other sorts of information. +[3695.26 --> 3696.26] So. +[3696.26 --> 3702.26] Alright, so Mark Zuckerberg's actual post on Facebook, I think clarified a lot. +[3702.26 --> 3705.26] Um, so I'm just going to go ahead and post this. +[3705.26 --> 3712.26] Now this, this is interesting because a massive amount of people, as far as I can tell, don't really trust Mark Zuckerberg. +[3712.26 --> 3713.26] Even if they like Facebook. +[3713.26 --> 3714.26] Really? +[3714.26 --> 3723.26] So, this, despite being kind of positive for the people that may have been negative in the beginning, a lot of people have been pretty sketchy about. +[3723.26 --> 3728.26] But it's interesting nonetheless and hopefully we can hold them to the things that he says in here. +[3728.26 --> 3729.26] So, here we go. +[3729.26 --> 3731.26] Yeah, hopefully there's some accountability. +[3731.26 --> 3732.26] Yeah. +[3732.26 --> 3740.26] Um, so he, he starts off by saying, um, aversive gaming will be first and Oculus already has big plans here that won't be changing and we hope to accelerate. +[3740.26 --> 3743.26] I don't even care what side of the fence you're on, that's good. +[3743.26 --> 3745.26] Um, like this has happened. +[3745.26 --> 3746.26] We can't reverse it now. +[3746.26 --> 3748.26] We have to take the good that we can. +[3748.26 --> 3749.26] Um, and that is good. +[3749.26 --> 3755.26] We're focusing on helping Oculus build out their product and develop partnerships supporting more games. +[3755.26 --> 3756.26] To support more games. +[3756.26 --> 3757.26] So, again. +[3757.26 --> 3759.26] We're going to have to move a little faster here at 6. +[3759.26 --> 3762.26] Oh god, I didn't realize this show was essentially over already. +[3762.26 --> 3766.26] Um, Oculus will continue operating independently within Facebook. +[3766.26 --> 3769.26] Um, and they want to achieve that, blah, blah, blah. +[3769.26 --> 3771.26] Whether or not that ends up becoming a thing or not. +[3771.26 --> 3776.26] Although right now it does seem like it's going to be and I'm sure Carmack would have a ton to say if that doesn't stay being a thing. +[3776.26 --> 3778.26] So, we'll see how that goes. +[3778.26 --> 3780.26] Um, I'm trying to skip over things. +[3780.26 --> 3781.26] Uh, da, da, da, da, da. +[3781.26 --> 3784.26] There's just some, he talks about potential uses. +[3784.26 --> 3786.26] I'm not going to directly quote this because it takes a long time. +[3786.26 --> 3787.26] I already talked about it earlier. +[3787.26 --> 3788.26] Yeah, okay. +[3788.26 --> 3789.26] Yeah. +[3789.26 --> 3791.26] Okay, so let's move on. +[3791.26 --> 3793.26] Did you list all the potential uses? +[3793.26 --> 3794.26] Yeah, yeah. +[3794.26 --> 3796.26] We talked about things like using it as a way to connect with other people. +[3796.26 --> 3798.26] Yeah, but he also brings up medical applications. +[3798.26 --> 3800.26] Courtside seats, games. +[3800.26 --> 3801.26] Yeah, yeah. +[3801.26 --> 3804.26] Something that I've talked about that I'm really excited about with VR already. +[3804.26 --> 3805.26] Yep. +[3805.26 --> 3806.26] Um, okay. +[3806.26 --> 3808.26] So, then we move on to Palmer's Reddit. +[3808.26 --> 3811.26] And this is incredibly long and already chopped down a lot. +[3811.26 --> 3813.26] Despite the fact that we're going to be skipping a bunch of things. +[3813.26 --> 3817.26] So, I actually recommend going to his user account and checking his message log. +[3817.26 --> 3820.26] Because it is very interesting and a really easy way to track the whole conversation. +[3820.26 --> 3823.26] Um, he's been asked a whole bunch of questions. +[3823.26 --> 3824.26] So, these are some answers. +[3824.26 --> 3827.26] You will not need a Facebook account to use or develop for the rift. +[3827.26 --> 3828.26] That will not be a thing. +[3828.26 --> 3829.26] He has said that so far. +[3829.26 --> 3832.26] Of course, he's no longer running the entire company. +[3832.26 --> 3833.26] So, it's kind of a problem. +[3833.26 --> 3837.26] But, I'm sure you would know. +[3837.26 --> 3838.26] Anyways. +[3838.26 --> 3842.26] Um, people have been, this is a little bit messed up. +[3842.26 --> 3843.26] Um, anyways. +[3843.26 --> 3847.26] Uh, people asked if I ever see Facebook branding on anything that's not optional, I'm done. +[3847.26 --> 3850.26] He says that's not really reasonable in a literal sense. +[3850.26 --> 3852.26] But, he understands what the guy is trying to say. +[3852.26 --> 3857.26] Um, I think that comment spouted from the Facebook branding on the Oculus idea. +[3857.26 --> 3858.26] Right. +[3858.26 --> 3859.26] Which isn't happening. +[3859.26 --> 3860.26] Yeah. +[3860.26 --> 3862.26] Not necessarily like a Facebook style, the Oculus App Store deal. +[3862.26 --> 3863.26] Something like that. +[3863.26 --> 3864.26] I'm not, I'm not sure. +[3864.26 --> 3866.26] That was a little bit shady anyways. +[3866.26 --> 3870.26] Um, if I see any ads on anything that I've already paid for, I'm done. +[3870.26 --> 3873.26] Palmer says, which makes a ton of sense, that's a developer decision. +[3873.26 --> 3875.26] They're not going to be injecting things necessarily. +[3875.26 --> 3876.26] It's not their decision. +[3876.26 --> 3881.26] If someone wants to sell a game with built in ads, they will have to deal with the natural consequences of you not buying it. +[3881.26 --> 3884.26] He didn't say that you're not buying it part, but yeah. +[3884.26 --> 3888.26] Um, just promise me there will be no specific Facebook tie-ins. +[3888.26 --> 3890.26] Um, he says, I promise. +[3890.26 --> 3892.26] Which is good. +[3892.26 --> 3894.26] Um, he talks about it more. +[3894.26 --> 3901.26] It's saying, would you rather me sell to someone like Microsoft or Apple so they can tear the company apart, use the pieces that we have to build their own vision of virtual reality. +[3901.26 --> 3902.26] We talked about this earlier. +[3902.26 --> 3905.26] Um, one that fits their current strategy they have. +[3905.26 --> 3906.26] Not a chance. +[3906.26 --> 3910.26] So you can tell that he believed in this acquisition at least some amount. +[3910.26 --> 3915.26] Um, the key points that he brings up too is we can make custom hardware. +[3915.26 --> 3916.26] We brought this up earlier. +[3916.26 --> 3917.26] Yep. +[3917.26 --> 3918.26] Um, we can afford to hire everyone we need. +[3918.26 --> 3919.26] We brought this up earlier. +[3919.26 --> 3921.26] We're going to talk about this a little bit further on. +[3921.26 --> 3923.26] And we can make huge investments in content. +[3923.26 --> 3927.26] So the only thing that I've really seen them do in a big form was EVR. +[3927.26 --> 3930.26] Eve virtual reality, Valkyrie, which looks amazing. +[3930.26 --> 3933.26] So hopefully there's more of that kind of stuff in the future. +[3933.26 --> 3937.26] Um, another thing that you should go read into is CarMax tweets. +[3937.26 --> 3941.26] Again, I guess I'm not going to jump into these too in depth because this show could probably go on for four hours. +[3941.26 --> 3944.26] Um, and I'll just talk about it more in the after party. +[3944.26 --> 3945.26] So be sure to show up for that. +[3945.26 --> 3949.26] Um, I like Carmack. +[3949.26 --> 3950.26] Carmack is a really good guy. +[3950.26 --> 3954.26] And one of the things that he posts up on there, let me go to his Twitter real fast. +[3954.26 --> 3966.26] Um, was, I would expect Facebook not to exert any overt control over Oculus unless Oculus fumbles badly a few times, at which point they should. +[3966.26 --> 3967.26] That kind of makes sense. +[3967.26 --> 3970.26] Um, and he asks people, what are the hazards? +[3970.26 --> 3972.26] What should be, what should be done to guard against them? +[3972.26 --> 3974.26] And what are the tests of failure? +[3974.26 --> 3975.26] Blog and I'll read. +[3975.26 --> 3977.26] So if you guys have opinions, talk about it. +[3977.26 --> 3979.26] And they will pay attention. +[3979.26 --> 3980.26] That's very cool. +[3980.26 --> 3984.26] Anyways, jumping forward off of CarMax tweets, we talked about some of those early on as well. +[3984.26 --> 3986.26] Oculus hires Michael Abrash. +[3986.26 --> 3987.26] This is huge. +[3987.26 --> 3992.26] And this, I think honestly, there was already a twist towards the positive. +[3992.26 --> 3993.26] Yeah. +[3993.26 --> 3995.26] And then this happened and then everyone was just like... +[3995.26 --> 3996.26] So this was today. +[3996.26 --> 3997.26] Yeah! +[3997.26 --> 4000.26] Like huge positive outcome when this happened. +[4000.26 --> 4006.26] Uh, some people freaking out saying that now Valve is ruined, but I don't think Valve ever intended on releasing anything anyways. +[4006.26 --> 4007.26] Yeah. +[4007.26 --> 4010.26] So I think it makes a lot more sense that he's now working for Oculus. +[4010.26 --> 4012.26] Um, so he was working on VR at Valve. +[4012.26 --> 4013.26] Yeah. +[4013.26 --> 4014.26] Just for context. +[4014.26 --> 4015.26] Yeah. +[4015.26 --> 4022.26] Uh, Abrash and Carmack worked together in the past on some really big things and they're both very happy that they're coming back together, which is really cool. +[4022.26 --> 4029.26] Um, they met in 1994, 1995 and worked on stuff like Quake, which is kind of a huge deal. +[4029.26 --> 4031.26] I'm gonna skip over a bunch of this again. +[4031.26 --> 4033.26] Yeah, let's just go ahead and post a link here. +[4033.26 --> 4035.26] You guys should definitely check this out. +[4035.26 --> 4038.26] Yeah, it's the thread on Oculus' actual website. +[4038.26 --> 4044.26] So, now people have been talking about cancelling their pre-orders and I don't know what I'm gonna do still yet. +[4044.26 --> 4048.26] Uh, next topic or Riot, um, starting in one minute. +[4048.26 --> 4050.26] You guys got another minute to do that because of the delay. +[4050.26 --> 4054.26] Uh, any more of that, you will be permabanned and we are not lifting bands anymore. +[4054.26 --> 4055.26] So, give it a rest. +[4055.26 --> 4060.26] Um, do you wanna cancel your terms, or sorry, do you wanna cancel your order? +[4060.26 --> 4063.26] There's terms that we can post that'll be in this doc. +[4063.26 --> 4065.26] Um, are you sure you wanna cancel though? +[4065.26 --> 4070.26] There's been a lot of people trying to cancel and then trying to stop their cancel so they can keep their spot in line. +[4070.26 --> 4072.26] You can cancel your pre-order before it's shipped. +[4072.26 --> 4074.26] So, you have a while still. +[4074.26 --> 4076.26] So, don't worry about cancelling it immediately if you're thinking about it. +[4076.26 --> 4079.26] You can kind of sit on that topic or just go and cancel it. +[4079.26 --> 4083.26] Although, careful because it's an email cancellation, it's not like an automated one. +[4083.26 --> 4085.26] So, it might take a little while for them to reply. +[4085.26 --> 4086.26] Just hold in there. +[4086.26 --> 4087.26] Yeah, and you'll lose your spot in line. +[4087.26 --> 4088.26] And you'll lose your spot in line. +[4088.26 --> 4095.26] Um, something interesting to bring up is the photo of their, like, Facebook kind of thing that they had at their old HQ. +[4095.26 --> 4097.26] Which, if you zoom in really closely, says, +[4097.26 --> 4104.26] Warning! Facebook may cause loss of time, poor work ethic, obesity, social disorders, and possible interference of destiny. +[4104.26 --> 4106.26] Use at your own risk. +[4106.26 --> 4107.26] And then the Facebook thumbs up. +[4107.26 --> 4109.26] Which is hilarious. +[4109.26 --> 4117.26] Goes to show you just what their attitude was towards Facebook, the website, if not Facebook, the company. +[4117.26 --> 4118.26] Yeah. +[4118.26 --> 4120.26] Um, Oatmeal made a joke. +[4120.26 --> 4121.26] We're basically at the end now. +[4121.26 --> 4125.26] Oatmeal made a joke about this apparently a year ago, which I'd never seen until earlier today. +[4125.26 --> 4129.26] Which was talking about, um, strapping Facebook to your face essentially. +[4129.26 --> 4130.26] If you actually go look at it. +[4130.26 --> 4131.26] There you go. +[4131.26 --> 4132.26] There we go. +[4132.26 --> 4134.26] Um, so he talks about essentially like how humans are- +[4134.26 --> 4136.26] The world around me is so very, very loud. +[4136.26 --> 4137.26] It begs me to slow down. +[4137.26 --> 4138.26] To sit down. +[4138.26 --> 4141.26] Introducing Facebook for your face. +[4141.26 --> 4142.26] I like it. +[4142.26 --> 4146.26] And then saying eventually we'll just like lay down and die. +[4146.26 --> 4148.26] Which is kind of hilarious. +[4148.26 --> 4149.26] And then, yeah. +[4149.26 --> 4150.26] Oatmeal. +[4150.26 --> 4152.26] I'll talk about it more in the after party, but that's essentially what happened. +[4152.26 --> 4154.26] You're gonna talk about this more on the after party? +[4154.26 --> 4155.26] I just skipped like probably half my stuff. +[4155.26 --> 4156.26] Okay. +[4156.26 --> 4164.26] So when the news first came out, we, uh, we, knee jerk reaction, we created this shirt. +[4164.26 --> 4166.26] And it wasn't ready because District Lines is- +[4166.26 --> 4167.26] I still think that it kind of applies. +[4167.26 --> 4169.26] Kind of slow sometimes. +[4169.26 --> 4171.26] So here's the shirt. +[4171.26 --> 4174.26] Um, so it just says, it's, it's an Oculus Eye. +[4174.26 --> 4176.26] So it's actually, it's not even the Oculus Eye. +[4176.26 --> 4181.26] It's just somewhat similar because we don't want any trademark infringing things on a shirt like this. +[4181.26 --> 4184.26] Uh, so it just says, I dislike Facebook. +[4184.26 --> 4186.26] In the context of the stuff that's happened over the last couple of days. +[4186.26 --> 4189.26] So District Lines took a while for this shirt to come out. +[4189.26 --> 4198.26] And so by now, so much positive news has come out around it that I think neither Luke nor I are feeling quite as down about the whole thing. +[4198.26 --> 4199.26] Well now it's not being completely rebranded. +[4199.26 --> 4200.26] Anyways. +[4200.26 --> 4201.26] Yeah. +[4201.26 --> 4208.26] So now like, well, like there were concerns like they were gonna rebrand it based on that New York Times article, which still hasn't been pulled down. +[4208.26 --> 4209.26] No. +[4209.26 --> 4210.26] Which is interesting to me. +[4210.26 --> 4211.26] Anyway. +[4211.26 --> 4218.26] Um, so if you still feel strongly about the whole thing, if we sell like 50 of them, then I'll still print it. +[4218.26 --> 4222.26] Otherwise I'm gonna cancel the order and I think that cost me like 15% restocking fee. +[4222.26 --> 4225.26] But I, I, it doesn't feel as relevant to me anymore. +[4225.26 --> 4227.26] Things have literally changed. +[4227.26 --> 4228.26] Yes. +[4228.26 --> 4230.26] A lot has changed since we created this shirt. +[4230.26 --> 4231.26] So I think that's another way to look at it. +[4231.26 --> 4236.26] I'm probably still interested in kind of getting one is I still like Oculus and I still don't like Facebook. +[4236.26 --> 4240.26] I disliked Facebook before this whole situation and I still dislike Facebook. +[4240.26 --> 4241.26] That doesn't change. +[4241.26 --> 4244.26] Um, so if you guys want it, order it. +[4244.26 --> 4245.26] If you don't, we're not making it. +[4245.26 --> 4246.26] So there you go. +[4246.26 --> 4247.26] Doesn't matter. +[4247.26 --> 4248.26] Okay. +[4248.26 --> 4255.26] And now everyone can rejoice because the Oculus topic is over and we're moving into our sponsors for today. +[4255.26 --> 4257.26] So sponsor number one. +[4257.26 --> 4259.26] Hey, we're gonna, Oh, that's the wrong one. +[4259.26 --> 4261.26] Well, it's still Intel, but slightly more different. +[4261.26 --> 4264.26] So Linus media group is going to PAX East. +[4264.26 --> 4267.26] It's going to be Luke and Brandon. +[4267.26 --> 4269.26] And this is mostly just a call out. +[4269.26 --> 4270.26] Did I say Brandon? +[4270.26 --> 4271.26] What? +[4271.26 --> 4273.26] I can probably go talk to them there. +[4273.26 --> 4274.26] To where, who, what? +[4274.26 --> 4275.26] Oculus. +[4275.26 --> 4276.26] They'll be at PAX East. +[4276.26 --> 4277.26] Yes, they will. +[4277.26 --> 4280.26] So Luke and Brandon will be there covering the show. +[4280.26 --> 4284.26] There will be actually, I feel this is a good opportunity to promote this. +[4284.26 --> 4290.26] There will be a build off between the one and only slick PC and the one and only Paul's hardware. +[4290.26 --> 4296.26] So Paul from new egg TV, they will be doing a PC build showdown. +[4296.26 --> 4303.26] And I can't promise that there won't be any hijinks or shenanigans throughout the entire thing. +[4303.26 --> 4312.26] Both the Linus media group and new egg TV crews will be filming the event and it will be streaming live on Twitch TV. +[4312.26 --> 4315.26] Due to a partnership between new egg and Twitch TV. +[4315.26 --> 4317.26] And of course we love Twitch TV as well. +[4317.26 --> 4319.26] We happen to be streaming there right now. +[4319.26 --> 4322.26] Although I don't have to endorse Twitch TV in any way. +[4322.26 --> 4326.26] Maybe I'll just say negative things about them just in case John is watching right now. +[4326.26 --> 4327.26] Twitch sucks, John. +[4327.26 --> 4335.26] Anyway, so Twitch will be streaming it live, which means that there will be no opportunity for any hijinks to be not streamed. +[4335.26 --> 4338.26] Hi, Jim. +[4338.26 --> 4341.26] Now everyone knows that something, anyways. +[4341.26 --> 4342.26] No, maybe nothing will happen. +[4342.26 --> 4346.26] Maybe I'm just trying to get them to watch so that I get my big fat paycheck from Intel. +[4346.26 --> 4349.26] It could be that overt. +[4349.26 --> 4353.26] So anyway guys, stay tuned. +[4353.26 --> 4356.26] Our other sponsor is Hotspot Shield. +[4356.26 --> 4360.26] And Hotspot Shield has kind of an interesting thing going on right now. +[4360.26 --> 4364.26] They want you to design their new slogan. +[4364.26 --> 4367.26] So I'm just going to see if I can actually find it. +[4367.26 --> 4368.26] Dang it. +[4368.26 --> 4369.26] I should have had the link ready before. +[4369.26 --> 4373.26] But Hotspot Shield is allowing you to come up with a new slogan. +[4373.26 --> 4379.26] And what they're doing is they are giving away a bunch of elite accounts as a way to promote the contest. +[4379.26 --> 4384.26] So Hotspot Shield is the easy way to set up a VPN. +[4384.26 --> 4387.26] Their elite service in particular is the one we recommend. +[4387.26 --> 4395.26] The complaints that I've seen about Hotspot Shield on the forum or wherever else tend to be about their ad-supported free version. +[4395.26 --> 4400.26] And let's just do a brief rundown of how a VPN works and why you have to pay for one. +[4400.26 --> 4408.26] Because it's basically triplicating the amount of data being transferred back and forth. +[4408.26 --> 4415.26] If you go to a website instead of Hotspot Shield or instead of you just communicating directly to the website. +[4415.26 --> 4416.26] Well I guess duplicating sorry. +[4416.26 --> 4419.26] Okay so instead of you just communicating directly to the website. +[4419.26 --> 4423.26] There is an intermediary hub and that's going to be Hotspot Shield server. +[4423.26 --> 4424.26] So you send data to them. +[4424.26 --> 4426.26] They forward it to the website. +[4426.26 --> 4428.26] And then it goes that way back again. +[4428.26 --> 4429.26] So sorry doubling. +[4429.26 --> 4431.26] Doubling the data being sent back and forth. +[4431.26 --> 4436.26] So that means there is an actual bandwidth cost associated with a VPN. +[4436.26 --> 4438.26] That's all there is to it. +[4438.26 --> 4443.26] A VPN that is free will be ad-supported or supported in some other way. +[4443.26 --> 4447.26] So unless you're paying for it you are going to be stuck with some kind of intrusive ad service. +[4447.26 --> 4451.26] So that's why I recommend using offer code Linus to get 20% off elite. +[4451.26 --> 4452.26] It's super easy to set up. +[4452.26 --> 4458.26] And VPNs allow you to hide who you are and where you're from from the websites that you're visiting. +[4458.26 --> 4462.26] It's because all the traffic looks to them as if it's coming directly from Hotspot Shield. +[4462.26 --> 4465.26] It allows you to circumvent geographical restrictions in this way. +[4465.26 --> 4471.26] So if you wanted to watch you know US content and you're in the UK or UK content you're in the US. +[4471.26 --> 4477.26] All you do is configure Hotspot Shield to tell the website where you're from somewhere other than where you're actually from. +[4477.26 --> 4480.26] You can go ahead and get around things like firewalls or censorship. +[4480.26 --> 4483.26] So that's one of the things that's really good for. +[4483.26 --> 4488.26] And I have finally located the link for the redesign the slogan contest. +[4488.26 --> 4492.26] So you can go ahead and it's actually on Facebook. +[4492.26 --> 4493.26] LOL. +[4493.26 --> 4495.26] Someone is also telling me that the contest is apparently over. +[4495.26 --> 4497.26] No I think it runs till April 4th. +[4497.26 --> 4498.26] Alright. +[4498.26 --> 4499.26] Something like that. +[4499.26 --> 4500.26] Well then I guess they're wrong. +[4500.26 --> 4501.26] I don't know. +[4501.26 --> 4504.26] I just saw someone in the Twitch chat be like, +[4504.26 --> 4505.26] The contest is over by the way. +[4505.26 --> 4506.26] Yeah. +[4506.26 --> 4507.26] I don't know. +[4507.26 --> 4508.26] Anyway. +[4508.26 --> 4509.26] Okay. +[4509.26 --> 4510.26] Well they told me April 4th. +[4510.26 --> 4511.26] I guess if it's over. +[4511.26 --> 4512.26] Tell you what. +[4512.26 --> 4517.26] If it's over guys let me know and I'll arrange some giveaway elite codes anyway. +[4517.26 --> 4519.26] And we'll do like a giveaway on the forum or something. +[4519.26 --> 4520.26] Cool. +[4520.26 --> 4521.26] So there you go. +[4521.26 --> 4524.26] My misunderstanding could turn into free Hotspot Shield accounts. +[4524.26 --> 4526.26] We actually did a giveaway a little while ago. +[4526.26 --> 4528.26] So guys try out the trial. +[4528.26 --> 4531.26] You don't actually have to start paying for it right away. +[4531.26 --> 4534.26] You can just get a trial at bit.ly slash hs share. +[4534.26 --> 4539.26] And if you like it then let us know and we'll see if we can arrange for something to happen. +[4539.26 --> 4541.26] Even if I might have totally screwed that up. +[4541.26 --> 4542.26] Alright. +[4542.26 --> 4547.26] So moving into our next topic here that is not Oculus. +[4547.26 --> 4549.26] Titan Z. +[4549.26 --> 4551.26] Dun dun dun. +[4551.26 --> 4555.26] The card that everyone was super unhappy wasn't a gaming card. +[4555.26 --> 4556.26] You know what? +[4556.26 --> 4557.26] I don't even. +[4557.26 --> 4558.26] I. +[4558.26 --> 4559.26] Okay. +[4559.26 --> 4561.26] Titan Z is moderately interesting. +[4561.26 --> 4567.26] And the people are upset that Nvidia is branding this as a gaming card. +[4567.26 --> 4568.26] But it'd be okay. +[4568.26 --> 4569.26] Yes. +[4569.26 --> 4570.26] It says GeForce. +[4570.26 --> 4571.26] Yes. +[4571.26 --> 4572.26] It has Titan branding. +[4572.26 --> 4579.26] The most recent of which to contain that branding was marketed sort of as a gaming card. +[4579.26 --> 4582.26] But this is not a gaming card. +[4582.26 --> 4588.26] Jensen came right out and said this is for people who want a super computer next to their desk. +[4588.26 --> 4589.26] It is. +[4589.26 --> 4593.26] It doesn't make any sense for a gamer to buy a Titan Z. +[4593.26 --> 4594.26] He didn't say that part. +[4594.26 --> 4599.26] Because you know I think his statement was more along the lines of I mean if gamers want to buy it then great. +[4599.26 --> 4600.26] Then great. +[4600.26 --> 4601.26] Then great. +[4601.26 --> 4605.26] But I mean Titan's been selling like hotcakes but it's mostly intended for CUDA developers. +[4605.26 --> 4611.26] The only advantage of Titan over something like GTX 780 Ti. +[4611.26 --> 4615.26] So we're talking about the single GPU versions is the double precision performance of Titan. +[4615.26 --> 4618.26] Which is only useful in a production environment. +[4618.26 --> 4619.26] A coding environment. +[4619.26 --> 4623.26] Double precision doesn't mean your games run more accurately. +[4623.26 --> 4624.26] No game takes advantage of. +[4624.26 --> 4626.26] You can obviously aim better. +[4626.26 --> 4627.26] Yeah you'll aim better. +[4627.26 --> 4629.26] So you combine that with Aimbot. +[4629.26 --> 4630.26] And a sniper button. +[4630.26 --> 4633.26] And like flames painted on the side of your PC. +[4633.26 --> 4634.26] Why not? +[4634.26 --> 4635.26] Speed holes? +[4635.26 --> 4636.26] Speed holes. +[4636.26 --> 4638.26] So Titan Z is not a gaming card. +[4638.26 --> 4640.26] Why is it $3,000? +[4640.26 --> 4650.26] It's $3,000 because the kind of work it is intended to be used for would allow a budget of $3,000 to spend on a compute card for it. +[4650.26 --> 4651.26] That's why. +[4651.26 --> 4652.26] It has 12 gigs of RAM. +[4652.26 --> 4653.26] So 6 gigs per GPU. +[4653.26 --> 4664.26] And it's intended to allow a higher density of GK110 graphics cores to be installed in a single machine in a desktop type work environment. +[4664.26 --> 4666.26] It is not a gaming card. +[4666.26 --> 4677.26] But because it happens to be GeForce and it will use GeForce drivers, you can game on it if you want a quad SLI GK110 experience. +[4677.26 --> 4679.26] You'll just have to pay more. +[4679.26 --> 4689.26] But that same experience would be available to you if you bought 4 GTX 780 Ti's for a grand total of $2,800. +[4689.26 --> 4692.26] And that would cost you $6,000 in Titan Z's. +[4692.26 --> 4697.26] And you will get the same performance unless you really need the 6 gigs of frame buffer per card. +[4697.26 --> 4704.26] In which case you could still buy 4 Titans and water cool them and spend like $1,500 less anyway. +[4704.26 --> 4707.26] It's not a practical solution. +[4707.26 --> 4708.26] It wasn't intended to be. +[4708.26 --> 4710.26] The internet needs to get over it. +[4710.26 --> 4711.26] Oh, there's a couple things. +[4711.26 --> 4714.26] So for context, oh wait. +[4714.26 --> 4716.26] So yeah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[4716.26 --> 4717.26] Old Titan was something. +[4717.26 --> 4728.26] I think Anantek is estimating that it will be clocked at around 700 MHz based on the, based on the GigaFlops or TeraFlops or whatever that Nvidia is quoting. +[4728.26 --> 4732.26] So that would be well below the performance of the Titan Black. +[4732.26 --> 4737.26] So not only would that other solution be cheaper, it would also perform better. +[4737.26 --> 4738.26] Considerably faster. +[4738.26 --> 4747.26] This is something that really just kind of, part of me is outraged and part of me is like, yeah, this makes sense. +[4747.26 --> 4754.26] ASUS has a gaming branded B85 board. +[4754.26 --> 4757.26] So this is an Intel LGA1150 board. +[4757.26 --> 4762.26] It supports, you know, four DIMM slots, supports dual graphics cards. +[4762.26 --> 4769.26] It's got better on board sound and like, like it's got like a gamer friendly color scheme. +[4769.26 --> 4770.26] It's not cold. +[4770.26 --> 4773.26] But it is not overclockable. +[4773.26 --> 4779.26] The B85 chipset does not support overclocking at all. +[4779.26 --> 4784.26] So I would love to see you guys hit us up with a straw poll here. +[4784.26 --> 4788.26] I don't think this current audience is going to like this too much. +[4788.26 --> 4789.26] I don't think they will either. +[4789.26 --> 4791.26] But I have, I have, okay. +[4791.26 --> 4794.26] Our discussion though, while we wait for the straw poll results. +[4794.26 --> 4798.26] Is that there's probably a large amount of people that aren't going to overclock and want to buy a gaming board. +[4798.26 --> 4800.26] Is your, is your CPU overclocked? +[4800.26 --> 4802.26] Actually, technically right now it is. +[4802.26 --> 4803.26] Okay. +[4803.26 --> 4804.26] Mine's not. +[4804.26 --> 4805.26] I know. +[4805.26 --> 4808.26] And mine wasn't not that long ago. +[4808.26 --> 4810.26] It doesn't really matter right now. +[4810.26 --> 4812.26] My graphics card is definitely overclocked. +[4812.26 --> 4817.26] When Star Citizen launches, I will overclock the snot out of my CPU. +[4817.26 --> 4823.26] My graphics card is overclocked like crazy, but I don't like, yeah, I know, not my CPU. +[4823.26 --> 4825.26] So there you go. +[4825.26 --> 4832.26] That's, that's the, that's the cold hard truth is not every gamer is an overclocker and enthusiast. +[4832.26 --> 4839.26] And for so long overclocking boards were lumped in with gaming boards because the assumption was that gamers were tweakers. +[4839.26 --> 4843.26] But most of the hardcore gamers I know are not that into the hardware. +[4843.26 --> 4846.26] Well, my, my, my gamers, not like. +[4846.26 --> 4852.26] My reason is I have a profile locked in for my CPU that I have a multiple profiles. +[4852.26 --> 4859.26] Actually, I have my, like, my stock, my like low overclock, medium overclock and like ridiculous overclock. +[4859.26 --> 4863.26] And I have it currently on like a medium, which is not really pushing it that hard. +[4863.26 --> 4864.26] Right. +[4864.26 --> 4866.26] Because my ridiculous one is insane. +[4866.26 --> 4869.26] But when Star Citizen starts really pushing my computer, I'll just be like click. +[4869.26 --> 4870.26] No. +[4870.26 --> 4872.26] But then the lifespan of that CPU is going to go. +[4872.26 --> 4873.26] Woo. +[4873.26 --> 4874.26] Yeah. +[4874.26 --> 4876.26] Just because I'm pushing it way too hard. +[4876.26 --> 4877.26] And I know that. +[4877.26 --> 4878.26] All right. +[4878.26 --> 4880.26] Nvidia looks beyond Maxwell. +[4880.26 --> 4882.26] This is posted on hardware Canucks. +[4882.26 --> 4896.26] So actually for a while they were saying Volta was coming after Maxwell, but now they have removed Volta from the roadmap and replaced it instead with Pascal, which is going to deliver unified memory, 3D memory and NV link. +[4896.26 --> 4900.26] And I'm actually not sure which is the most interesting out of all of these things. +[4900.26 --> 4903.26] So 3D memory has been talked about for a while. +[4903.26 --> 4905.26] It's going to be instrumental with Pascal. +[4905.26 --> 4912.26] Nvidia claims they will be able to provide several times greater bandwidth, which is going to be incredibly important for resolutions beyond 1080p. +[4912.26 --> 4917.26] They're saying more than twice the memory capacity and quadruple the energy efficiency. +[4917.26 --> 4932.26] And when you look how energy efficient Maxwell is already, we could be looking at some seriously powerful hardware in very small spaces, powering like cloud gaming experiences within the home or whatever else the case may be. +[4932.26 --> 4934.26] Talked about that a lot last week. +[4934.26 --> 4936.26] The other big one to me is NV link. +[4936.26 --> 4940.26] So here's a little picture that's also courtesy of hardware Canucks. +[4940.26 --> 4941.26] Thank you, hardware Canucks for posting this. +[4941.26 --> 4942.26] I love you, Mike. +[4942.26 --> 4945.26] Showing what NV link will be exactly. +[4945.26 --> 4949.26] So we're not necessarily expecting NV link to replace. +[4949.26 --> 4952.26] Oh, you guys can't see that part of the traffic. +[4952.26 --> 4953.26] I'm sorry. +[4953.26 --> 4954.26] There we go. +[4954.26 --> 4955.26] Really? +[4955.26 --> 4956.26] Okay. +[4956.26 --> 4957.26] Well, whatever. +[4957.26 --> 4958.26] My mouse, my mouse is here. +[4958.26 --> 4960.26] So there's a little PCIe link labeled here. +[4960.26 --> 4965.26] So it's not going to replace PCI express or anything, but NV link will be an efficient way for the GP to be able to replace PCI express. +[4965.26 --> 4980.26] So it would replace the current SLI bridge, much like AMD has done with XDMA on their R9 series cards on the very, very high end, the R9 290 series cards. +[4980.26 --> 4986.26] But this will augment PCI express, allowing the GPUs to communicate with each other. +[4986.26 --> 4997.26] And again, not just for crossfire or SLI type dual graphics functionality, but instead for compute functionality, giving them a much more efficient means of working together. +[4997.26 --> 5006.26] We could, there, uh, NVIDIA saying this is going to be twice as efficient as PCI express 3.0, and they call it feeding the appetite for big data. +[5006.26 --> 5014.26] So, um, you know, how much better could graphics cards work together in terms of frame pacing or whatever else? +[5014.26 --> 5022.26] If they had super high speed interconnects, if they had, you know, double the memory bandwidth or several times the memory bandwidth to work with. +[5022.26 --> 5028.26] Well, also hopefully this will help with just chopping and general crappiness that comes along with multiple GPU setups. +[5028.26 --> 5029.26] Yep. +[5029.26 --> 5033.26] So that maybe we will all kind of embrace it more. And that's probably what they're going for. +[5033.26 --> 5034.26] Yeah, I would certainly think so. +[5034.26 --> 5035.26] So hopefully way better. +[5035.26 --> 5044.26] Alright, so more bad news for Bitcoin. Um, Vercurex has just gone insolvent. That was about four days ago. +[5044.26 --> 5050.26] So they're basically, the funny thing about what they're doing is at least they're being a bit more communicative about it than Mt. Gox was. +[5050.26 --> 5056.26] But they're saying, okay, well, we can either just shut down now because we're like out of Bitcoins, +[5056.26 --> 5066.26] or we can try to continue operating and then like pay that back slowly. But if we just shut down now, we're just not going to be able to pay it back at all. +[5066.26 --> 5072.26] And then one of the advantages of Bitcoins up till now is that taxation on them hasn't been very clear. +[5072.26 --> 5081.26] Well, new IRS rules in the U.S. anyway, are now considering Bitcoin property. +[5081.26 --> 5091.26] So now it's property. So you will pay taxes on it in much the same way as you would another investment or capital assets such as, well, property. +[5091.26 --> 5101.26] So land or anything else like that. So a payment made using virtual currency will be subject to information reporting to the same extent as any other payment made in property. +[5101.26 --> 5110.26] I don't know if you guys know this, but technically, here in Canada anyway, if you make a deal with someone that is a barter agreement. +[5110.26 --> 5117.26] So if I say, you know, I'll fix your computer to a plumber and the plumber says, okay, I'll fix your sink. +[5117.26 --> 5126.26] We should both be reporting and paying taxes correctly on the base value of what those services would have been. +[5126.26 --> 5135.26] The laws are very clear about this. So cryptocurrency has existed on this sort of, we don't know what to do with this cloud for a little while. +[5135.26 --> 5142.26] That's not the thing that's going to be happening anymore. All right. Which isn't to say that it will necessarily be enforced everywhere. +[5142.26 --> 5147.26] It just means that you'll be legally responsible for it not having been enforced. +[5147.26 --> 5148.26] Yeah. +[5148.26 --> 5155.26] Portal's coming to Shield, which there's not a whole lot else to really say about this other than it's happening now. +[5155.26 --> 5162.26] Nvidia has been saying, hey guys, we're going to deliver last gen console grade experiences on handheld. +[5162.26 --> 5165.26] They've been saying that for a while. Well, it's happening now. +[5165.26 --> 5172.26] Because Portal, that's a last gen console game and Valve will be porting it to Android. +[5172.26 --> 5177.26] So their blog post is actually pretty darn interesting. You guys should have a read of it later on. +[5177.26 --> 5182.26] I'm just going to post this in the Twitch chat. Boom. You guys should check that out. Very, very cool. +[5182.26 --> 5189.26] Not that relevant to me or really to anyone in general who owns a Shield necessarily, +[5189.26 --> 5195.26] because you already have GameStream, which is already definitely a good enough experience to play Portal with. +[5195.26 --> 5199.26] I played through the entirety of Portal 2 on Nvidia Shield using GameStream. +[5199.26 --> 5205.26] I didn't touch my PC for the entire game. Actually quite enjoyed it. I just finished it. Did I tell you that? +[5205.26 --> 5206.26] Yeah. +[5206.26 --> 5210.26] Yeah. Really good. Obviously nothing compares to Portal 1. +[5210.26 --> 5215.26] It's good though. I couldn't have really asked for much more. +[5215.26 --> 5216.26] Nope. Good game. +[5216.26 --> 5217.26] And then the Steam Workshop makes it so epic. +[5217.26 --> 5219.26] I did enjoy, but... +[5219.26 --> 5221.26] Because you can just download custom maps. +[5221.26 --> 5225.26] I don't even really enjoy solving Portal puzzles that much. +[5225.26 --> 5226.26] You just like the storyline? +[5226.26 --> 5231.26] I just really enjoyed the atmosphere and the humor and the story. +[5231.26 --> 5236.26] GLaDOS is a fantastic character with or without Caroline. +[5236.26 --> 5240.26] So, yeah. Really, really enjoyed it. No one wants to hear about Ancient Games though. +[5240.26 --> 5241.26] More about Shield! +[5241.26 --> 5245.26] So here are the release notes of their upcoming firmware update. +[5245.26 --> 5247.26] Or, well, oh, what the hell is this? +[5247.26 --> 5252.26] Oh, I guess this is old release notes where you can stay tuned in a few days! +[5252.26 --> 5258.26] There are gonna be some new fantastic release notes because Shield in the short 9 or 10 months, +[5258.26 --> 5265.26] or however long it's been on the market, has evolved significantly from kind of a nifty Android gaming device +[5265.26 --> 5269.26] that had this weird, like, PC streaming feature in beta, that actually worked pretty well at launch, +[5269.26 --> 5277.26] but is better now, to something that is a very compelling gaming platform compared to pretty much anything else +[5277.26 --> 5279.26] that you could buy from a handheld gaming perspective. +[5279.26 --> 5286.26] So now, on top of GameStream, on top of the TegraZone store where you can buy Tegra optimized games, +[5286.26 --> 5288.26] GameStream works outside of the house. +[5288.26 --> 5291.26] NVIDIA has said on the conference call that we were... +[5291.26 --> 5292.26] No, you weren't on it. I was on it. +[5292.26 --> 5293.26] No. +[5293.26 --> 5294.26] You had to talk to Newegg TV. +[5294.26 --> 5295.26] Ha! +[5295.26 --> 5299.26] Anyway, I was talking to NVIDIA while he was talking to Newegg TV. +[5299.26 --> 5301.26] That's just even... +[5301.26 --> 5303.26] I'm sorry, but like... +[5303.26 --> 5305.26] That just doesn't even sound cool. +[5305.26 --> 5311.26] Um, so NVIDIA's saying you're gonna need a strong mobile network connection, +[5311.26 --> 5315.26] or whether you're on someone else's Wi-Fi, like if I'm at the office here, +[5315.26 --> 5317.26] and I wanna GameStream something at my house, +[5317.26 --> 5322.26] you're gonna need 5 megabit up and down in both places for optimal communication between the devices, +[5322.26 --> 5327.26] or I mean they've even said you could do it on, you know, 4G LTE, +[5327.26 --> 5331.26] but you're gonna need 5 megabit up and down on both ends for a good experience, +[5331.26 --> 5334.26] and the way it works is pretty similar to Grid Beta. +[5334.26 --> 5335.26] Have you tried that yet? +[5335.26 --> 5336.26] Grid Beta? +[5336.26 --> 5337.26] Yeah. +[5337.26 --> 5338.26] No. +[5338.26 --> 5339.26] I asked you last week. +[5339.26 --> 5340.26] It's on your shield already. +[5340.26 --> 5342.26] Oh no, I wiped it before I gave it to you. +[5342.26 --> 5343.26] Okay, check it out. +[5343.26 --> 5344.26] Try Grid Beta. +[5344.26 --> 5346.26] I also have to install that access point though. +[5346.26 --> 5351.26] So streaming from NVIDIA's servers down in California to here works. +[5351.26 --> 5352.26] Like you can play Street Fighter. +[5352.26 --> 5356.26] Um, so anyway, GameStream works outside of the house. +[5356.26 --> 5360.26] Uh, wake on LAN and remote login support is coming. +[5360.26 --> 5364.26] So this is a great feature for people who don't wanna leave their PC on all the time, +[5364.26 --> 5367.26] or like the number of times I've been in bed, +[5367.26 --> 5369.26] and I'm like, yeah, I wanna fire something. +[5369.26 --> 5370.26] Oh, my computer's asleep. +[5370.26 --> 5376.26] Ah, get up and go turn it on and log in and go back to bed and play my game. +[5376.26 --> 5379.26] It's like, well, if I wanted to get up, I would've gone and played on my computer. +[5379.26 --> 5381.26] So, if that's being addressed. +[5381.26 --> 5384.26] Can you install mobile TeamViewer on your... +[5384.26 --> 5387.26] Yeah, I could, but I'm just like boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. +[5387.26 --> 5390.26] Um, and that wouldn't help with wake on LAN. +[5390.26 --> 5393.26] Alright, notebook GPU support is coming. +[5393.26 --> 5398.26] So you'll be able to GameStream from your GeForce, Kepler-based GPU, laptop, +[5398.26 --> 5401.26] which is very exciting for folks who have notebooks. +[5401.26 --> 5404.26] Bluetooth keyboard and mouse support is coming in console mode. +[5404.26 --> 5408.26] The new TegraZone has been redesigned to help you find compatible games even better, +[5408.26 --> 5410.26] although I almost never touch Android games on it. +[5410.26 --> 5411.26] They all kinda suck. +[5411.26 --> 5416.26] I mean, no offense to Android games, but like, compared to PC games that I can play on the thing, +[5416.26 --> 5418.26] my Shield almost never leaves my home. +[5418.26 --> 5419.26] I just play PC games on it. +[5419.26 --> 5421.26] Um, it's gonna get Android 4.4. +[5421.26 --> 5424.26] KitKat, uh, better FPS and bitrate controls. +[5424.26 --> 5427.26] Much like what Valve has been adding to in-home streaming, +[5427.26 --> 5430.26] you're gonna be able to say, okay, I want this bitrate, I want this FPS, +[5430.26 --> 5432.26] and you're gonna have much more granular control. +[5432.26 --> 5435.26] They have a better gamepad mapper with a more intuitive UI, +[5435.26 --> 5437.26] so you can take Android games if you play them, +[5437.26 --> 5440.26] and then you can remap your buttons to the screen in an even better way. +[5440.26 --> 5444.26] And, for a limited time, it's only 200 bucks. +[5444.26 --> 5446.26] So for a month, Nvidia Shield is $200, +[5446.26 --> 5448.26] and at that price, I think it's a great value. +[5448.26 --> 5449.26] I would buy one. +[5449.26 --> 5450.26] I'll say that outright. +[5450.26 --> 5452.26] I've even just watched videos on it. +[5452.26 --> 5456.26] It's a lot easier to manage, especially while you're in bed, than your phone. +[5456.26 --> 5457.26] Oh yeah, we haven't talked about this. +[5457.26 --> 5458.26] Is it a tablet? +[5458.26 --> 5459.26] Yeah. +[5459.26 --> 5460.26] It's a tablet. +[5460.26 --> 5463.26] I use it like a tablet, because I was able to just, like, kind of prop it up. +[5463.26 --> 5466.26] And you've never even been sold on the whole tablet concept. +[5466.26 --> 5468.26] Well, I'm still not sold on the whole tablet concept. +[5468.26 --> 5469.26] Okay, well, are you just... +[5469.26 --> 5471.26] But another thing that I'm really excited for is when Hearthstone gets moved to tablets, +[5471.26 --> 5475.26] my phones, so that I can install it on my Shield. +[5475.26 --> 5477.26] That'll make Shield so much better. +[5477.26 --> 5479.26] Because Hearthstone, I've always been like, +[5479.26 --> 5482.26] this is really cool, but I want to be playing something a little bit heavier +[5482.26 --> 5485.26] while I'm at my computer, instead of this, because this is just weird. +[5485.26 --> 5487.26] Whereas if you're, like, just in bed... +[5487.26 --> 5489.26] If I'm just like, ugh, I'm chilling but can't sleep yet, +[5489.26 --> 5491.26] it's like, alright, play a card game like Hearthstone. +[5491.26 --> 5493.26] Hearthstone's fun, it's just... +[5493.26 --> 5494.26] Freaking awesome. +[5494.26 --> 5495.26] When I'm sitting at my computer, I'm just like, baaah. +[5495.26 --> 5496.26] I love Shield. +[5496.26 --> 5498.26] For $200, that's a no-brainer for me. +[5498.26 --> 5503.26] Okay, so NVIDIA also talked a lot about DirectX 12 on McCall, +[5503.26 --> 5506.26] and some of this stuff was pretty relevant. +[5506.26 --> 5508.26] So I teased this at the beginning of the show, +[5508.26 --> 5512.26] but Mantle support is not coming to NVIDIA GPUs near you, +[5512.26 --> 5515.26] no matter how open AMD makes the platform. +[5515.26 --> 5518.26] And I don't care anymore. +[5518.26 --> 5519.26] The Mantle hype train. +[5519.26 --> 5524.26] Like, I think it was, to me, both... +[5524.26 --> 5527.26] You know what? I'm going to criticize both of them right now. +[5527.26 --> 5533.26] AMD really mismanaged the Mantle hype train in much the same way that NVIDIA has mismanaged the G-Sync hype train. +[5533.26 --> 5539.26] Both really cool technologies, looked really important, talked about way too early. +[5539.26 --> 5540.26] No follow through. +[5540.26 --> 5542.26] No follow through yet. +[5542.26 --> 5548.26] I mean, G-Sync monitors are coming, but G-Sync monitors need to be ubiquitous. +[5548.26 --> 5550.26] Every monitor needs to be a G-Sync monitor. +[5550.26 --> 5553.26] Anything branded to gamers needs to be a G-Sync monitor. +[5553.26 --> 5557.26] And pricing needs to be reasonable, and we might see that in a year or two years. +[5557.26 --> 5558.26] And then Mantle, same thing. +[5558.26 --> 5560.26] It needs to be everywhere, or it's not going to make a ton of sense. +[5560.26 --> 5562.26] It needs to be on games at launch. +[5562.26 --> 5563.26] Yes. +[5563.26 --> 5568.26] So, NVIDIA made some really interesting points about DirectX 12. +[5568.26 --> 5575.26] So, 79% of the DirectX 11 GPUs, according to the Steam survey, support DirectX 12. +[5575.26 --> 5577.26] While 39... +[5577.26 --> 5578.26] No, it was less than that. +[5578.26 --> 5581.26] I thought it was like 11% support Mantle or something. +[5581.26 --> 5582.26] Oh, no. +[5582.26 --> 5583.26] 39% of the DirectX 11 GPUs... +[5583.26 --> 5584.26] No, that math isn't right. +[5584.26 --> 5585.26] Okay, these are old notes. +[5585.26 --> 5586.26] I'm sorry. +[5586.26 --> 5587.26] They updated the numbers. +[5587.26 --> 5591.26] But it was like much, much lower support Mantle. +[5591.26 --> 5598.26] And they're saying Star Swarm is better with the new 780 Ti DirectX drivers than the 290X with Mantle. +[5598.26 --> 5600.26] So there's a new driver coming. +[5600.26 --> 5602.26] Are those really properly compared GPUs? +[5602.26 --> 5606.26] They are not quite, but it depends on the pricing of 290X. +[5606.26 --> 5610.26] Yeah, but only in North America is that really happening. +[5610.26 --> 5611.26] Hold on. +[5611.26 --> 5616.26] It's enough better than 290X that even at MSRP, they're about equal in terms of price to performance. +[5616.26 --> 5623.26] So if DirectX 12 or even DirectX 11 updated driver can be equal to what AMD is already delivering with Mantle in Star Swarm... +[5623.26 --> 5625.26] I was saying the other way around though. +[5625.26 --> 5627.26] 780 Ti is unproportionately expensive, is it not? +[5627.26 --> 5628.26] Nope. +[5628.26 --> 5631.26] Because it performs a little better and it's a little more expensive than a 290X. +[5631.26 --> 5633.26] 290X is 600. +[5633.26 --> 5635.26] 780 Ti is around 730. +[5635.26 --> 5636.26] Is it really? +[5636.26 --> 5637.26] Everywhere? +[5637.26 --> 5638.26] Yeah. +[5638.26 --> 5640.26] No, this is just based on the lowest prices I could find for both of them on Newegg. +[5640.26 --> 5641.26] Yeah, but what I'm saying is... +[5641.26 --> 5642.26] That's MSRP though. +[5642.26 --> 5643.26] That's not jacked up prices. +[5643.26 --> 5644.26] Okay. +[5644.26 --> 5645.26] Yeah, it's all good. +[5645.26 --> 5646.26] Everything's okay. +[5646.26 --> 5650.26] So if they can deliver the same performance with the new DirectX 11 driver that AMD can +[5650.26 --> 5657.26] deliver with Mantle on an admittedly Mantle optimized benchmark and DirectX 12 is going +[5657.26 --> 5661.26] to improve things even further, then yeah. +[5661.26 --> 5667.26] Unreal Engine 4 will support DirectX 12 and NVIDIA says they've been working on DirectX 12 for +[5667.26 --> 5668.26] four years. +[5668.26 --> 5674.26] So this isn't a knee-jerk reaction from Microsoft like ignoramuses like us might have assumed +[5674.26 --> 5679.26] when we went, oh, I guess they're talking about DirectX 12 so early because they're reacting +[5679.26 --> 5680.26] to Mantle. +[5680.26 --> 5682.26] Nope, not so much. +[5682.26 --> 5683.26] So there you go guys. +[5683.26 --> 5687.26] Whatever ends up happening, we're probably all going to be gaming on Windows for the foreseeable +[5687.26 --> 5688.26] future. +[5688.26 --> 5689.26] Yeah. +[5689.26 --> 5693.26] Unless, I mean a lot of good news came out about OpenGL last week as well. +[5693.26 --> 5694.26] I don't know. +[5694.26 --> 5695.26] I don't know. +[5695.26 --> 5696.26] I don't know. +[5696.26 --> 5700.26] I think we're probably going to be pretty much done here. +[5700.26 --> 5701.26] Let's do two more. +[5701.26 --> 5708.26] So our Better Than Bieber segment this week, we need music that goes along with this, is +[5708.26 --> 5715.26] that the Titanic 2 is coming to, actually no, it's real. +[5715.26 --> 5718.26] It's not a movie, it's not a game. +[5718.26 --> 5720.26] This was kind of weird. +[5720.26 --> 5731.26] New cruise ship to be built by eccentric billionaire Clive Palmer and will be as accurate to the +[5731.26 --> 5736.26] experience of the original Titanic as makes sense or probably more so. +[5736.26 --> 5743.26] So the third class passengers will be in like cramped, horrible rooms below water level +[5743.26 --> 5750.26] and the first class passengers will be in these opulent, beautiful, mahogany covered rooms +[5750.26 --> 5752.26] just like the original Titanic. +[5752.26 --> 5761.26] Palmer did, when asked about unsinkability, hold on, let's just see if I, yeah, when asked +[5761.26 --> 5765.26] about unsinkability, he did not go as far as to call it unsinkable. +[5765.26 --> 5768.26] A jinx famously applied to the original vessel. +[5768.26 --> 5771.26] Anything will sink if you put a hole in it, Palmer joked. +[5771.26 --> 5776.26] And they are expected to set sail in 2017. +[5776.26 --> 5779.26] The ship is currently being built in China. +[5779.26 --> 5782.26] It's kind of, I don't even know what to think about it. +[5782.26 --> 5784.26] If you were gonna go on a cruise... +[5784.26 --> 5785.26] No. +[5785.26 --> 5787.26] I don't care at all. +[5787.26 --> 5792.26] Okay, if you were gonna go on a cruise, would you go on a cruise on a Titanic replica? +[5792.26 --> 5793.26] No. +[5793.26 --> 5794.26] Okay. +[5794.26 --> 5800.26] So I'm gonna pay so little that I'm gonna get stuck in that crapshoot underwater level. +[5800.26 --> 5801.26] I'm gonna hate it. +[5801.26 --> 5806.26] I'm not gonna care about the experience of living in like essentially a jail cell at the bottom of a boat. +[5806.26 --> 5809.26] And I'm just gonna be like, this is super dumb. +[5809.26 --> 5811.26] Is it that different from working here? +[5811.26 --> 5812.26] No. +[5812.26 --> 5819.26] Alright, really important law change in the UK. +[5819.26 --> 5823.26] Disc media ripping will be legalized this summer in the UK. +[5823.26 --> 5828.26] This was posted on the forum by Mathiusus Sanzo. +[5828.26 --> 5839.26] And the UK government has published a guide informing consumers that an upcoming revision of copyright law will legalize CD and DVD ripping for personal use. +[5839.26 --> 5844.26] Good. +[5844.26 --> 5846.26] That wasn't even a slow clap. +[5846.26 --> 5847.26] I'm sorry if that came across wrong. +[5847.26 --> 5849.26] That was a like, very satisfied slow clap. +[5849.26 --> 5852.26] That was like, this should have happened 100 billion years ago. +[5852.26 --> 5855.26] The original source is TorrentFreak here. +[5855.26 --> 5858.26] It's coming into effect in the June-July timeframe. +[5858.26 --> 5863.26] And the law is still very clear that if you make a backup, it is for personal use. +[5863.26 --> 5870.26] It is not for you to put on a, you know, like server that you rent somewhere and then give everyone and your dog access to. +[5870.26 --> 5873.26] That's not what this law change is intended for. +[5873.26 --> 5878.26] You can still sell your physical media, but you will be expected to delete all of the backup copies. +[5878.26 --> 5881.26] You're still very much expected to buy media. +[5881.26 --> 5886.26] But you will be allowed to play it back on any device you own. +[5886.26 --> 5889.26] This is so weird right now. +[5889.26 --> 5895.26] Like some of the laws going around about this because like you buy a song and then it's like the only medium you can play it on. +[5895.26 --> 5896.26] iTunes. +[5896.26 --> 5902.26] Is iTunes or like if you buy a physical copy of the disc and a lot of places it's like good luck carry on a CD player with you. +[5902.26 --> 5903.26] Yeah. +[5903.26 --> 5908.26] Like they're like, no, you can't copy it to your MP3 player because that's another copy. +[5908.26 --> 5910.26] And it's like, what the hell is even happening? +[5910.26 --> 5911.26] Yeah. +[5911.26 --> 5913.26] So I'm happy that something like this stepped in. +[5913.26 --> 5914.26] I mean, people do it anyway. +[5914.26 --> 5916.26] Like it's gonna happen. +[5916.26 --> 5921.26] But you might as well legalize it so we can stop seeing discussion on it about it anymore. +[5921.26 --> 5928.26] And like what's his name's mom going to jail for 80 billion dollars because her son downloaded five songs. +[5928.26 --> 5929.26] Like this is just stupid. +[5929.26 --> 5930.26] Well, that's different. +[5930.26 --> 5932.26] That's, we're not talking piracy. +[5932.26 --> 5935.26] I know, but like okay, not downloaded then copied off of his own thing. +[5935.26 --> 5936.26] It doesn't matter. +[5936.26 --> 5937.26] Right. +[5937.26 --> 5938.26] The same thing happens. +[5938.26 --> 5942.26] People that didn't actually do anything wrong, wrong. +[5942.26 --> 5946.26] I mean, I think there's still gonna be some debate. +[5946.26 --> 5948.26] Because what about families? +[5948.26 --> 5950.26] Is my wife allowed to listen to my song? +[5950.26 --> 5951.26] Ooh. +[5951.26 --> 5954.26] But then like your wife is allowed to wear your shirt. +[5954.26 --> 5955.26] Yes. +[5955.26 --> 5959.26] But the law says it's for personal use and they specifically say not to give friends access. +[5959.26 --> 5961.26] Is my wife my friend? +[5961.26 --> 5962.26] Oh, that's... +[5962.26 --> 5963.26] Are my kids my friends? +[5963.26 --> 5964.26] I don't know. +[5964.26 --> 5967.26] I mean, Valve is opening up family sharing for games. +[5967.26 --> 5968.26] Which is really cool. +[5968.26 --> 5970.26] Which is really cool. +[5970.26 --> 5978.26] But that doesn't mean that this law allows like, you know, if I play this song at a party, is that a public demonstration? +[5978.26 --> 5980.26] Did I own the rights for that? +[5980.26 --> 5984.26] Like all that stuff is still very gray area in terms of ownership. +[5984.26 --> 5992.26] But you know, like, because they specifically say if you have like a NAS, you can't give your friends access to it to play back this media. +[5992.26 --> 5993.26] Yeah. +[5993.26 --> 5996.26] But like, my family is gonna have access to my NAS. +[5996.26 --> 5997.26] Yeah. +[5997.26 --> 5998.26] So... +[5998.26 --> 5999.26] So... +[5999.26 --> 6000.26] Yeah. +[6000.26 --> 6001.26] That's weird. +[6001.26 --> 6002.26] Alright. +[6002.26 --> 6004.26] Well, I think that is pretty much it for the show this week. +[6004.26 --> 6009.26] Um, I was planning to do my first impressions of the HTC One M8. +[6009.26 --> 6011.26] But I think we've somewhat run out of time. +[6011.26 --> 6013.26] I will have a review coming. +[6013.26 --> 6019.26] So far, I'm actually pretty impressed with some things that I wasn't expecting to be impressed by. +[6019.26 --> 6023.26] I have 42% battery on it, having used it quite heavily. +[6023.26 --> 6026.26] Normally, my old One runs out during the show. +[6026.26 --> 6031.26] Because I'm using navigation to like, go run errands on my way back from NCIX. +[6031.26 --> 6040.26] And I'm on my phone like, constantly at NCIX, because I don't bring out my computer there to, you know, read the document for WAN Show and all that kind of stuff. +[6040.26 --> 6043.26] And I have 42% right now, which is pretty impressive. +[6043.26 --> 6047.26] The camera is actually quite strong. +[6047.26 --> 6049.26] Um, in spite of the lack of... +[6049.26 --> 6052.26] People are asking for straw poll results. +[6052.26 --> 6053.26] But do you even have that link still? +[6053.26 --> 6054.26] Yeah, I probably do. +[6054.26 --> 6055.26] Actually, I'll grab that. +[6055.26 --> 6056.26] Sorry about that, guys. +[6056.26 --> 6058.26] Um, the camera is really, really strong. +[6058.26 --> 6061.26] The build quality feels even more solid. +[6061.26 --> 6064.26] I think it's gonna be a bit of a mixed bag in terms of how people perceive it. +[6064.26 --> 6067.26] When I went to the Bell store last night to get a nano... +[6067.26 --> 6069.26] Okay, I guess I'm doing my first impressions of the M8. +[6069.26 --> 6074.26] Alright, so when I went to the Bell store last night, um, I said I needed a nano-SIM. +[6074.26 --> 6076.26] And they were like, oh, why do you need one of those? +[6076.26 --> 6077.26] Did you get an iPhone? +[6077.26 --> 6079.26] And I was like, no, it's for this. +[6079.26 --> 6080.26] And I pulled out of my pocket. +[6080.26 --> 6082.26] Like, everyone in the store who worked there was like, +[6082.26 --> 6085.26] and like ran over and came and looked at it. +[6085.26 --> 6092.26] And the reaction was very positive there to the metal, um, seamless backing. +[6092.26 --> 6097.26] Uh, whereas some people are complaining that it's too slick and almost plasticky looking. +[6097.26 --> 6102.26] Like, I showed it to someone at NCIX today who was like, oh, well, why would they take metal +[6102.26 --> 6105.26] and make it look and feel as much like plastic as they possibly could? +[6105.26 --> 6110.26] Overall, the construction and the flex of the phone is a very strong point for it. +[6110.26 --> 6112.26] So the metal construction is definitely doing something. +[6112.26 --> 6115.26] It's just whether or not you prefer that or not is up to you. +[6115.26 --> 6118.26] It is a little bit bigger, which I'm finding a little bit awkward right now +[6118.26 --> 6120.26] as I go through that transition period again. +[6120.26 --> 6122.26] But it's only about 0.3 inches. +[6122.26 --> 6126.26] Um, the voice quality on it is outstanding. +[6126.26 --> 6131.26] I, I usually comment on voice quality in my reviews and I kind of say, well, it's a phone. +[6131.26 --> 6135.26] You put one end to your face and the other end to someone else's face +[6135.26 --> 6137.26] and there's a wireless link between them or something. +[6137.26 --> 6139.26] Um, and it sounds all right. +[6139.26 --> 6144.26] But this one really blew me away with how good people sound, uh, through the hand, through the handset. +[6144.26 --> 6149.26] Uh, blink feed has, I, I quite like sense 6.0 so far. +[6149.26 --> 6150.26] It's really subtle. +[6150.26 --> 6155.26] They haven't, it doesn't feel that different from the stock Google UI really. +[6155.26 --> 6158.26] And maybe part of it is that I started out with sense. +[6158.26 --> 6163.26] Whereas a lot of people started out with, with other skins, but I, I quite like it. +[6163.26 --> 6164.26] It doesn't get in my way at all. +[6164.26 --> 6168.26] And they've added a few little subtle things like the double tap to wake up is there now. +[6168.26 --> 6172.26] There are some gesture controls that right now are a little bit hit or miss. +[6172.26 --> 6177.26] So for example, if you lift it up and then press the volume button, there you go. +[6177.26 --> 6180.26] That launched the camera, but it doesn't work a hundred percent of the time. +[6180.26 --> 6182.26] Uh, camera modes again, very, very cool. +[6182.26 --> 6187.26] So you can do things like, um, here, I'm going to show you guys this cause it's actually like quite neat. +[6187.26 --> 6188.26] Okay. +[6188.26 --> 6190.26] So here I'm going to get Jake the dog behind you there. +[6190.26 --> 6191.26] Okay. +[6191.26 --> 6194.26] And then I'm going to get up and refocus that so you guys can actually see this. +[6194.26 --> 6197.26] So some of the, yeah, yeah. +[6197.26 --> 6198.26] Yeah. +[6198.26 --> 6200.26] Just going to point the mic at myself. +[6200.26 --> 6203.26] So some of the camera effects that you can do are kind of neat. +[6203.26 --> 6207.26] So let's just see what the, and there we go. +[6207.26 --> 6208.26] All right. +[6208.26 --> 6209.26] So here's a picture of this guy. +[6209.26 --> 6212.26] So we're going to go ahead and edit the picture. +[6212.26 --> 6214.26] So they're refocusing feature. +[6214.26 --> 6216.26] It's not perfect, but check it out. +[6216.26 --> 6218.26] So I could focus on Jake the dog if I felt like it. +[6218.26 --> 6219.26] There you go. +[6219.26 --> 6224.26] And it, it detects reasonably well what's in the foreground with those dual cameras in the front. +[6224.26 --> 6225.26] That's kind of neat. +[6225.26 --> 6229.26] You can only really apply one effect at a time, which I was a little bit disappointed with, +[6229.26 --> 6232.26] but you can go and you can apply like effects to the background. +[6232.26 --> 6238.26] Obviously they're going to need to add more than four of them to make this worthwhile as a feature. +[6238.26 --> 6244.26] But I mean, we saw them add more things with their, with their gallery viewing features in the past. +[6244.26 --> 6247.26] Some of the stuff is just kind of goofy. +[6247.26 --> 6251.26] Like let's put like blossoms all over him or something, but this is neat. +[6251.26 --> 6254.26] So they have kind of like a parallax effect. +[6254.26 --> 6261.26] So you can see a little, it's mostly faked, but it still is like kind of neat. +[6261.26 --> 6265.26] You can see the boxes behind them are kind of like stuck to his head there a little bit. +[6265.26 --> 6267.26] So, so there's that. +[6267.26 --> 6273.26] Um, and then I haven't actually tried touch up yet, but let's, uh, let's do anti shine. +[6273.26 --> 6274.26] Yeah. +[6274.26 --> 6275.26] That's a face. +[6275.26 --> 6276.26] Okay. +[6276.26 --> 6277.26] Done. +[6277.26 --> 6279.26] I don't know if that did anything. +[6279.26 --> 6280.26] Okay. +[6280.26 --> 6287.26] Anyway, um, I think the biggest challenge, whoops, we're out of focus. +[6287.26 --> 6288.26] There we go. +[6288.26 --> 6295.26] I think the biggest challenge for the M8 is going to be the price because a year ago or two years ago, +[6295.26 --> 6300.26] um, $700 for a flagship phone was like, okay, that's how much a flagship phone costs. +[6300.26 --> 6309.26] Whereas now with the Nexus five at $350 for the equivalent memory model, you better be delivering $350 of additional value. +[6309.26 --> 6316.26] And the fact that it's missing wireless charging to me is a huge knock against it, especially because we're still using micro USB. +[6316.26 --> 6322.26] We're still stuck with the standard and the micro USB port recently failed on my one, which I've only had for about a year. +[6322.26 --> 6323.26] That's a good point. +[6323.26 --> 6333.26] So micro USB ports failing strikes again for Linus because he has like the worst luck ever, or he's a terrible person or whatever, whatever your perception of micro USB might be. +[6333.26 --> 6335.26] It doesn't work very well for me. +[6335.26 --> 6340.26] And wireless charging is a really good way to not have to wear out the connectors on your phone unnecessarily. +[6340.26 --> 6344.26] The screen is absolutely beautiful, but we've come to expect that from HTC. +[6344.26 --> 6346.26] Like it's really good. +[6346.26 --> 6353.26] Even though the pixels per inch, the, the actual pixel density is slightly lower than the old one because of the larger screen and 1080p resolution. +[6353.26 --> 6355.26] It looks absolutely beautiful. +[6355.26 --> 6357.26] It's extremely snappy. +[6357.26 --> 6360.26] Um, I guess that's pretty much all I have to say for now. +[6360.26 --> 6363.26] So there you go. +[6363.26 --> 6364.26] All right. +[6364.26 --> 6367.26] Oh, I like their new sound scheme. +[6367.26 --> 6368.26] Sound scheme? +[6368.26 --> 6369.26] Yeah. +[6369.26 --> 6371.26] Like the, the noises it makes when you like do things. +[6371.26 --> 6372.26] Oh, okay. +[6372.26 --> 6373.26] Yeah. +[6373.26 --> 6374.26] Sounds like super stupid one. +[6374.26 --> 6375.26] Yeah. +[6375.26 --> 6376.26] HTC's was always okay. +[6376.26 --> 6377.26] I like the new one even better. +[6377.26 --> 6378.26] Cool. +[6378.26 --> 6382.26] Thank you guys very much for tuning into the WAN show this week. +[6382.26 --> 6384.26] I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. +[6384.26 --> 6388.26] WAN show Oculus edition coming to a theater near you. +[6388.26 --> 6396.26] If you thought this was great and you need to see more news on Oculus, maybe we can do a full feature length Oculus WAN show and we can... +[6396.26 --> 6404.26] Well, I'm gonna be talking about it in the after party because we only actually got through the like what happened part. +[6404.26 --> 6407.26] We didn't even get to do the our thoughts part. +[6407.26 --> 6410.26] So I'm gonna be talking about a bunch of stuff in the after party. +[6410.26 --> 6413.26] Pretty much the entire after party is gonna be about Oculus. +[6413.26 --> 6415.26] So if you wanna see anything that's not about Oculus... +[6415.26 --> 6416.26] Peace out. +[6416.26 --> 6417.26] Don't bother show up. +[6417.26 --> 6421.26] Uh, guys, here's the straw poll result that we uh, talked about earlier. +[6421.26 --> 6422.26] I'm interested. +[6422.26 --> 6423.26] Yeah, I'm interested too. +[6423.26 --> 6427.26] I actually, I posted it in the thread but I haven't actually clicked it yet. +[6427.26 --> 6428.26] There we go. +[6428.26 --> 6429.26] I'm assuming I could. +[6429.26 --> 6430.26] So results. +[6430.26 --> 6435.26] Alright, so not overclocked is 39%. +[6435.26 --> 6437.26] Look at that. +[6437.26 --> 6441.26] Hand overclocked greater than 1 GHz is 22%. +[6441.26 --> 6443.26] Auto overclocked is 17%. +[6443.26 --> 6448.26] So both of those folks will not really be able to do anything with a B-series chipset. +[6448.26 --> 6452.26] Hand overclocked greater than 500 MHz, hand overclocked and underclocked. +[6452.26 --> 6460.26] So, 40% of you won't give any cares about a B85 board that has all the gaming centric features +[6460.26 --> 6463.26] without any of the overclocking centric features. +[6463.26 --> 6466.26] Even though those two things have been one and the same for so long. +[6466.26 --> 6467.26] Fascinating. +[6467.26 --> 6468.26] Yeah. +[6468.26 --> 6469.26] That is actually really interesting. +[6469.26 --> 6471.26] Cause I still want the option so that I can... +[6471.26 --> 6472.26] Yeah. +[6472.26 --> 6473.26] And I still do it. +[6473.26 --> 6474.26] I just don't necessarily run it all the time. +[6474.26 --> 6475.26] Yeah. +[6475.26 --> 6479.26] I just moved to IVE, which I've never overclocked before. +[6479.26 --> 6482.26] So I'm gonna be playing around with that once I take my system home. +[6482.26 --> 6483.26] Right. +[6483.26 --> 6486.26] Oh, my personal rig update is done being edited. +[6486.26 --> 6488.26] It's half an hour long. +[6488.26 --> 6489.26] Did I tell you how long it was? +[6489.26 --> 6490.26] It's more than half an hour. +[6490.26 --> 6491.26] I expected it would be at least... +[6491.26 --> 6496.26] It's like 35 minutes and it has the most B-roll we've ever shot for a video. +[6496.26 --> 6497.26] Yeah. +[6497.26 --> 6498.26] How... +[6498.26 --> 6500.26] What was the data size on that again? +[6500.26 --> 6501.26] Uh... +[6501.26 --> 6503.26] Hey Brandon, are you still here? +[6503.26 --> 6504.26] Uh... +[6504.26 --> 6508.26] How many gigs of B-roll did you shoot of my system? +[6508.26 --> 6509.26] 86. +[6509.26 --> 6512.26] 86 gigs of B-roll. +[6512.26 --> 6514.26] And that's in ProRes 1080p. +[6514.26 --> 6517.26] It is going to be our most beautiful video ever. +[6517.26 --> 6519.26] Something to note... +[6519.26 --> 6522.26] Actually, I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but if you go back and look at our last +[6522.26 --> 6525.26] couple of Corsair case reviews, we are using a new recording setup. +[6525.26 --> 6531.26] It's still on the Sony FS700, but it's actually using an external recorder that allows us, +[6531.26 --> 6538.26] instead of recording at 1080p, to record at 4K to the internal recorder and then down sample +[6538.26 --> 6543.26] to 1080p with a much better codec that retains a lot more of the image information. +[6543.26 --> 6546.26] So we're using ProRes now instead of AVCHD. +[6546.26 --> 6550.26] I personally noticed a big difference in the sharpness and detail of the footage, +[6550.26 --> 6552.26] but I haven't really seen anyone comment about it. +[6552.26 --> 6556.26] So you guys should let me know if you actually noticed my... +[6556.26 --> 6558.26] How much did that stupid thing cost? +[6558.26 --> 6559.26] Yeah! +[6559.26 --> 6560.26] $2,500? +[6560.26 --> 6561.26] $2,500 bucks. +[6561.26 --> 6563.26] Apparently nobody even noticed. +[6563.26 --> 6564.26] Awesome. +[6564.26 --> 6566.26] But we're not quite at the limit of its capability. +[6566.26 --> 6569.26] There's a firmware update coming that will allow us to record in 4K, and then we will +[6569.26 --> 6571.26] start releasing all of our videos in 4K. +[6571.26 --> 6572.26] So yeah. +[6572.26 --> 6573.26] Yeah! +[6573.26 --> 6574.26] That's been coming for so long though. +[6574.26 --> 6575.26] I know! +[6575.26 --> 6577.26] I bought a 4K capable camera a year and a half ago. +[6577.26 --> 6578.26] And it's still not able to actually do it. +[6578.26 --> 6579.26] And still not able to actually... +[6579.26 --> 6580.26] Well it could be if I was willing to spend like $9,000 on Sony's solution, which is ridiculous. +[6580.26 --> 6581.26] Yeah. +[6581.26 --> 6582.26] And like not even as good, right? +[6582.26 --> 6583.26] Yeah. +[6583.26 --> 6584.26] It's not as flexible. +[6584.26 --> 6585.26] Yeah. +[6585.26 --> 6586.26] So that's stupid. +[6586.26 --> 6587.26] Alright, peace out guys! +[6587.26 --> 6588.26] We'll see you next week! +[6588.26 --> 6589.26] Bye everybody! +[6589.26 --> 6590.26] Bye! +[6590.26 --> 6591.80] Sony's solution, which is ridiculous. +[6592.18 --> 6592.34] Yeah. +[6592.70 --> 6594.02] Like, not even as good, right? +[6594.32 --> 6594.60] Yeah. +[6594.82 --> 6595.64] It's not as flexible. +[6595.92 --> 6596.16] Yeah. +[6596.38 --> 6597.30] So that's stupid. +[6597.50 --> 6597.76] All right. +[6597.94 --> 6598.50] Peace out, guys. +[6598.54 --> 6599.24] We'll see you next week. +[6599.30 --> 6599.74] Bye, everybody. +[6599.74 --> 6599.84] Bye. +[6620.26 --> 6621.26] Bye. diff --git a/The WAN Show Oculus Sued, Flappy Bird Insanity &

about nine minutes ago when we were +[11.40 --> 13.98] supposed to be... Which hasn't happened in a while. Which has not happened in a while, +[13.98 --> 21.00] and the fact that XSplit managed to completely forget everything, and the +[21.00 --> 26.70] fact that Chrome continues to be a giant steaming pile of garbage, and the +[26.70 --> 32.22] recently closed tab feature, which used to just work completely automatically and +[32.22 --> 37.38] be effortless, now just seems to randomly totally not work, and I would switch to +[37.38 --> 41.64] Firefox, but that's been a giant piece of garbage for the last six months or so as +[41.64 --> 45.30] well. I don't know what to do. Am I supposed to go back to Internet Explorer? +[45.30 --> 54.74] Like, honestly. It's still worse. It's still worse. And that's the sad thing. That's the saddest part of all of this, is that somehow they still +[54.74 --> 60.26] manage to be worse. When their compa... And our Domokun fell down! +[60.26 --> 63.42] And the whole background is ruined! +[63.42 --> 68.42] It's all ruined! I quit! I hate this show. +[68.42 --> 70.70] I'm gonna fix everything. You keep talking. +[70.70 --> 72.26] No. I wanna fix it. +[72.26 --> 74.26] Well, I don't wanna keep talking. You talk. +[74.26 --> 75.26] It's gonna get worse. +[75.26 --> 77.62] You're gonna break it! You know there's stuff in there, right? +[77.62 --> 80.06] It's okay. Thank you. +[80.06 --> 83.58] He's standing now. Alright. Everything is fine in the universe. +[83.58 --> 86.38] He's looking over us. Maybe that's why the browser's broken. +[86.38 --> 89.82] Alright, welcome to the show, guys. We've got some great stuff for you this week. +[89.82 --> 92.38] Oculus is... What do you have? +[92.38 --> 93.74] Start your phone. +[93.74 --> 94.74] No! +[94.74 --> 96.38] Unbox it now! +[96.38 --> 98.38] Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! +[98.38 --> 100.58] Yes! Okay, okay, okay. +[100.58 --> 102.06] Holy crap! +[102.06 --> 107.06] Oh my god. Screw news topics. News topics don't matter. Let's do this. +[107.06 --> 110.74] My day just got fixed. Completely. +[110.74 --> 112.02] Okay, don't chop this out. +[112.02 --> 113.38] Okay. Yeah, that would break my day. +[113.38 --> 114.50] You good? I'm gonna move this. +[114.50 --> 121.14] Okay. This, my friends, is from OriginalStormTrooper.com. +[121.14 --> 126.74] We are gonna have a full unboxing and like gearing up guide with lots of glamour footage +[126.74 --> 130.98] and all that stuff coming soon. And let the jokes come. +[130.98 --> 134.82] Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper? Yes, thank you. Yes, I am. +[134.82 --> 140.10] I'm probably gonna make that joke for you guys in spite of the fact that it's not funny at all, +[140.10 --> 144.18] just to prevent people from flooding the comments of that video with, +[144.18 --> 146.42] Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper? +[146.42 --> 148.18] Thank you, Leia. Very helpful. +[148.90 --> 152.74] And I'm even shorter than Mark Hamill, so it's like even worse. +[152.74 --> 154.90] So this is from OriginalStormTrooper.com. +[154.90 --> 158.26] It is a full set of Stormtrooper armour. +[159.86 --> 162.10] Okay, so there's a... Oh, holy cow. +[162.10 --> 162.74] Wow. +[162.74 --> 169.22] And it's signed by Andrew Ainsworth, who designed the original A New Hope Stormtrooper +[169.22 --> 172.26] helmets and armour and all that cool stuff. Or at least the helmets. +[172.26 --> 176.50] Okay, I might be a little bit... I might be a little bit not quite up on my history. +[176.50 --> 181.54] So they include a catalogue that includes the Hero Trooper helmet, the standard... +[181.54 --> 183.30] Oh, we've got some Fallen going on. +[183.30 --> 186.98] Okay, hold on, hold on. Don't worry, it's armour, so we couldn't break it that hardcore. +[186.98 --> 188.58] But you can scratch it. +[188.58 --> 190.82] Yeah, I don't want it to get scratched either. Okay, okay, hold on. +[190.82 --> 195.14] So anyway, they've got like Imperial Pilot helmets, they've got Stormtrooper helmets, +[195.14 --> 202.90] they have Darth Vader helmets and busts, and they have full sets of completely wearable, authentic +[203.46 --> 208.66] armour. So I don't know if it's all in this box or if it's not, but at any rate, we're going to do a +[208.66 --> 217.06] bit of a live unboxing here. And holy crap, okay, there's another box this size. I have no idea how +[217.06 --> 219.70] any of this is going to work. So this looks like... Is this the helmet? +[220.42 --> 225.06] Thigh armour. That's probably the helmet. This looks like thigh armour. So we got... +[225.54 --> 230.02] Oh no, hold on. This will be shin. Yeah, that'll be shin. So there's one of the legs. +[231.38 --> 239.78] Just like that. Oh, I'm so stomp. What? I think that's the bust. So that we can, +[239.78 --> 244.74] so we can display him in the back of the land show set. Okay, they also include... +[246.34 --> 252.82] This is like the best day ever. All the anger is completely gone. So they also include a black +[252.82 --> 259.54] like body suit thing. So that in the gaps in the armour, you don't just see like your jeans or whatever. +[259.54 --> 265.86] So that zips up. Okay. Styling. They include whatever this is. +[265.86 --> 274.90] The best. Okay, they don't have official shoes. So they just have like some recommended models. +[274.90 --> 280.82] And they're not available in every size. So this is just like, this is just like, you know, boots. +[280.82 --> 287.54] And they're like two and a half sizes too big for me. But at least I'll have no way. Guess what this model of shoe is called? +[287.54 --> 288.10] What? +[288.10 --> 289.38] Guess. +[289.38 --> 291.30] The Stormtrooper. +[291.30 --> 292.50] Pimp 50. +[292.50 --> 293.30] Wow! +[293.30 --> 301.70] Right inside. Not even kidding. So that's not, it's not from original stormtrooper.com. Oh, wow. +[302.26 --> 311.62] Okay. Okay. So this, holy crap. E-11 blaster, individually numbered, signed by Andrew Ainsworth, +[312.26 --> 318.90] certificate of authenticity, all that good stuff. It comes with, holy crap. It comes with everything. +[318.90 --> 328.50] Look at that. Individually numbered here as well. Wow. And it comes with a little display stand. +[328.50 --> 335.54] Yeah. Holy crap. I wish we got two. Sorry, dude. Epic. +[335.54 --> 343.78] Um, so to be clear guys, they sent this to us. They're extremely expensive. And while I had been eyeing their stuff, +[343.78 --> 351.78] literally for years, I had never really gotten together the funds to actually, to order it. +[351.78 --> 358.10] Um, but they reached out to us about sending us a unit. And in exchange, we, all we have to do is show +[358.10 --> 363.14] you guys like how to put it on and stuff. So here's a neck thing so that, uh, you don't see your neck +[363.14 --> 368.66] through the gap between the helmet and the armor. This is presumably a holster for the blaster. +[368.66 --> 375.78] Okay. Let's keep going here. If you guys are bored, you can let me know on, uh, on Twitch. +[376.58 --> 383.54] Apparently no one, no one cares. No one's bored. I mean, okay. So this looks like shoulders. +[385.14 --> 390.26] Okay. So there's like Velcro pieces here. I don't want anything to get scratched. So I'm going to leave +[390.26 --> 395.30] it all in the baggies for now. You should put the helmet on. Let's get the helmet going on here. I'm not +[395.30 --> 400.90] going to make you guys sit through all the different pieces of armor, but maybe the chest plate. +[402.10 --> 408.50] Uh, Brandon, was that everything that was in this box? No? There's other stuff? Holy crap. +[413.70 --> 415.46] Okay. So that's the stand and +[415.46 --> 426.02] Yeah, that's the bus that he's going to live on. Okay. So there you have it guys. +[428.66 --> 432.34] Here. There's the chest plate. +[435.94 --> 442.50] Fantas- oh, oh, oh, oh, look at that. Okay. So that's the, uh, the tinted lenses, which I guess I'll +[442.50 --> 447.38] leave off for now. So I don't know. Oh, it's signed inside. Ah! +[452.34 --> 454.82] Luke, I am your father. Wait, I think I got that wrong. +[455.78 --> 460.42] What? Yeah. Yeah, no, I'm just, I'm kidding. So there we have it guys. Obviously I'll have to do +[460.42 --> 464.34] some playing around with it in terms of size because they're a little bit bigger than a normal +[464.34 --> 468.66] person's head. Can I put it on? I'm sorry? Can I put it on? Yeah, absolutely. Here you go. +[468.66 --> 476.26] Well, I'm holding the- Ah, here. I got it. I got it. I got it. Oh, I'm so stoked to do the unboxing. +[476.26 --> 480.66] Don't worry. You got this. Uh, should fit. Yeah, there you go. I didn't want to break it. +[480.66 --> 486.98] No one wants you to break it. There we go. That's epic. It is kind of massive. Yeah, it's like huge +[486.98 --> 491.22] inside. So you got to picture that with like the proper lenses inside, of course. They go on the inside. +[491.22 --> 497.22] Yeah. I am like stoked so hard. Oh, there we go. If you turn your head sideways, it's super easy. +[497.22 --> 502.50] Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna put these in something safe. I got the box. Oh, you got it? Okay, okay, okay. +[504.18 --> 514.90] That's awesome. It's cool that it's signed. I know. Holy crap. This will be like the best headquarters +[514.90 --> 520.98] statue ever. The only thing better would be a life-size statue of gay men. That would be better. +[521.70 --> 529.14] Made in bronze. Yeah, in bronze. All right, so there's the front and back plate pieces. +[529.86 --> 537.54] I'm just gonna put those over there. Now everything's all like scattered around. Oh yeah. That crotch protection. +[537.54 --> 545.94] Right there. I like the belts right in here. Okay. There's the butt protection. +[548.42 --> 551.46] Not quite as robust as the crotch protection, but that's fine. +[552.34 --> 558.58] The butt is less fragile than the crotch. There's a tech tip for you. And then we've got the, uh, yep, +[558.58 --> 571.06] the utility belt. Whatever these are. Oh, this is the little canister that goes at the back +[571.78 --> 574.58] of whatever it is. I never actually saw a storm trooper use one. +[576.58 --> 580.26] And there you have it guys. Okay, let's just, we can drop this back there. Oh, no we can't. +[580.26 --> 581.54] Nope. Brendan! +[581.54 --> 590.90] Brendan! Is there anything in this? Oh, yeah. Oh, are those gloves? Yeah. Thank you. Yes. Yes. +[590.90 --> 595.86] Yes, yes. Sweet. Your knife is open. Oh, thank you. +[599.38 --> 604.02] Someone says they're bailing. It's too boring. Don't worry. The show is starting in like a couple seconds. +[605.14 --> 608.42] All right, so the gloves aren't really anything that special. They're rubber gloves +[608.42 --> 623.86] so I can probably, I mean, yeah, you're gonna have to customize a little bit anyway, but okay. +[624.82 --> 628.90] There we go. We'll compromise. I won't- You should do the whole show with those in your hands. +[628.90 --> 633.54] Jesus. They're pretty warm, actually. They're rubber gloves, so. All right, guys, we got a great show for +[633.54 --> 638.82] you today. I'm sorry for the- Oh, there goes my water bottle. I'm sorry for the interruption there at the +[638.82 --> 648.02] beginning. Oculus is being sued over their name by Oculoo. The 290X, the R9 290X, a graphics card that, +[648.02 --> 656.10] by all rights, really isn't that competitive. Price to performance at its original introduced price, +[656.10 --> 664.82] which was $549.99, has now reached a $900 price on Newegg. The most baffling thing about all of this +[664.82 --> 670.82] is that this pricing is not even reflected in other markets outside of North America. So, +[670.82 --> 680.34] more on that later. Google and Foxconn have started to work closely early- more closely-er on robotic +[680.34 --> 686.98] manufacturing techniques that will allow them to- I don't know. It looks like the objective is to +[686.98 --> 695.86] get rid of inexpensive labor in their Chinese factories and, as another sort of benefit to this, +[695.86 --> 701.46] potentially move manufacturing back overseas to North America. But then- Depending on where you place +[701.46 --> 705.78] benefit. Depending on- Okay, you know what? We'll talk about that more in depth, because I've- Okay, +[705.78 --> 710.58] I have a lot to say about that one. And finally, what do you got? Uh, well, you spilled a little +[710.58 --> 716.26] bit into my section. I did. Three things. I always spill into your section. There's also the Flappy +[716.26 --> 721.94] Bird insanity, which is like, the whole internet has something to say about it, and it's- it's ridiculous, +[721.94 --> 728.82] and we'll talk about that later. And that's about it. It is so baffling to me that Flappy Bird matters at all. +[728.82 --> 731.14] At all. Like, at all. +[731.14 --> 761.06] Our sponsor today is Squarespace. Guys, squarespace.com slash Linus. Head on over there to +[761.06 --> 768.10] check out the easy way to make yourself a beautiful, functional website. Visit squarespace.com. +[768.10 --> 772.50] I think I just said that. So yeah, squarespace.com. They're our sponsor for today. Thank you so much +[772.50 --> 780.42] for making the WAN Show possible on this Friday the 14th. Which is either lucky or unlucky, depending +[780.42 --> 783.06] on how lucky you're planning to be today. Or- +[783.06 --> 785.06] Oh! +[785.54 --> 794.10] Alright. So let's get going on our first topic here. Steam adds a recently updated feature to the +[794.10 --> 800.02] storefront. This is actually either going to be awesome. This was posted by Eskew on the forum. +[800.02 --> 806.98] This is either going to be awesome, or it's going to open things up to abuse. What is your take on this? +[806.98 --> 814.02] I think it's buried far enough down on the front page that I don't think it's going to be that bad. +[814.02 --> 820.26] And then if you decide to, you can just completely ignore all parts of it except for the Your Games +[820.26 --> 825.38] and Software part. In which I do actually think it could be good. +[825.38 --> 833.46] Okay. So here are a couple of problems I have. Let me go back to the earlier days of YouTube. Back +[833.46 --> 842.42] when the homepage of YouTube.com was not necessarily just videos about Justin Bieber. And it was kind +[842.42 --> 846.98] of a mix. Like there was an actual section at the bottom for technology, for example. +[848.42 --> 855.06] Anyway, I got homepaged once randomly on a video that honestly I didn't really think was anything special. +[855.06 --> 860.26] It was actually, this is kind of funny, okay, so I'm a bit of a tangent here. It was actually +[860.26 --> 867.86] like a showcase video for an NCIX PC special edition system that was based around a brand new AMD +[867.86 --> 875.86] processor launch with an AMD graphics card at the time. The system didn't sell a single unit. It was the +[875.86 --> 882.74] only system we ever released at NCIX that didn't sell a single unit and we actually had to disassemble +[882.74 --> 890.50] the prototype and then repurpose the parts. Okay. So anyway, that got featured on the front page of +[890.50 --> 898.66] YouTube.com as like one of the technology videos. That video went from zero to a couple hundred thousand +[898.66 --> 906.82] views overnight. That is how powerful even the crappiest featured spot on the front of a high +[906.82 --> 915.54] traffic page like YouTube.com or the front of the Steam store can be. And I think that people will +[916.10 --> 922.18] try to game the system. Developers will try to game the system in order to get featured in that spot. +[922.18 --> 926.82] I'm sure that they will. I'm sure that certain ones will especially. And I worry about some things where +[926.82 --> 932.10] it's like game updates and things are still in early access. Yeah. Where it's going to be like update, +[932.10 --> 936.18] update, update, update, update, update, update, update, update, because early access is such a big thing now. +[936.18 --> 941.94] Yes. And when, when you're in early access, you're not too worried about if things are unstable +[941.94 --> 948.02] and like catering to your current audience more, what you're doing is, oh my god, let's produce the game. +[948.02 --> 953.06] So release tons of updates. And in other situations, and especially if you're in early access, +[953.06 --> 958.10] you're probably trying to get funding and crowdfunding and early purchases is such a big thing now +[958.10 --> 965.14] that people are going to jump on that like crazy. I do still like the your games and software side, +[965.14 --> 970.82] though. Yes. But if you were a small dev, would you release daily updates to your game, +[970.82 --> 975.06] like and tweak a texture here or there to get featured in that recently updated list? +[975.06 --> 982.66] I mean, I'd like to say no, but probably yes. Because there's so many things that people are +[982.66 --> 988.26] bundling into really big updates to not annoy people with tons of little updates, because they're +[988.26 --> 991.38] working on things very actively. And some things don't take that long. Some things take a really +[991.38 --> 996.10] long time. Some things don't take that long. So if you can instead plug people with updates all the +[996.10 --> 1002.42] time, but have that naturalized advertisement of being on the front page all the time, that could +[1002.42 --> 1008.26] help a lot. I mean, what Tom Booy of Valve says is, the more options developers have for communicating +[1008.26 --> 1012.50] about their products, the better it is for everyone. With this new product section and corresponding +[1012.50 --> 1015.86] developer tools, customers can more easily discover products that provide ongoing value and +[1015.86 --> 1021.54] involvement from the developers. And I agree, more two-way communication between developers and +[1021.54 --> 1028.90] customers is definitely good. As long as that communication is somehow positive. I, oh wow, +[1028.90 --> 1034.90] I feel really terrible for this. But I forget whose video it was. Batman, someone sent, someone tweeted to +[1034.90 --> 1039.46] me, I'm going to try and find this in a moment here, but someone tweeted to me a video about Batman +[1039.46 --> 1046.10] Arkham Origins, where basically they just came out and said, yeah, there are game breaking bugs that cause +[1046.10 --> 1051.94] like save games to be lost, but we're not fixing them, but we're hard at work on the DLC. +[1053.54 --> 1057.70] And I was like, really? I'm going to try, I'm going to try and find that while you move on to the next +[1057.70 --> 1063.14] topic. But, um, oh, the other thing Steam added that actually isn't in the dock that I'm more excited +[1063.14 --> 1067.46] about than this is the new tagging system. Uh, did you see that? Have you heard about this? +[1067.46 --> 1072.34] Yeah, I think it was just somewhere else. Is it in the dock? No. +[1072.34 --> 1078.02] I guess it's not flushed. Yeah. Anyway, so Steam's added a new tagging system that will allow people +[1078.02 --> 1083.22] to add tags to games in much the same way that they would add them to things like forum threads +[1083.22 --> 1090.18] or any other tagging based service. Obviously, if you and your, you know, brother are like, +[1090.82 --> 1095.54] let's put penis on that one, that's not going to work. It's not going to show up. It has to be +[1095.54 --> 1100.42] something that it gets tagged with over and over and over again in order to become an official tag for +[1100.42 --> 1103.94] the product. But I personally think that's fantastic because this is something we were +[1103.94 --> 1109.38] complaining about only a few weeks ago because I was sitting there in bed trying out Valve in-home +[1109.38 --> 1115.86] streaming and I was like, I want to play a game with my wife. I got a couple controllers. I got a +[1115.86 --> 1120.50] computer. What do you got, Steam? And the answer was... Who the heck knows? +[1120.50 --> 1125.86] Oh. And even, I would even like it if you could do it in your own library. So like, I don't know if this +[1125.86 --> 1131.46] works, but if the search for that applies to your own library, so you could be like, okay, co-op. +[1131.46 --> 1135.86] And then it does a search through your own library for those tags that are on the store. I hope it's +[1135.86 --> 1139.46] in both sections because that would be awesome. So basically, you're so ballin' that you have +[1139.46 --> 1144.50] so many games that you need to catalog them. I'm just... No, look at bundles. I know it's mostly like... +[1144.50 --> 1149.70] Yeah, you spend like four bucks and you get 18 billion games. Like, everyone's Steam library has just +[1149.70 --> 1154.74] exploded over the last year or two. I'm just trolling you. Insanity bundles. Just like every day. +[1157.14 --> 1162.26] What? Oh no, I thought that shirt was like an everyday I'm shuffling shirt. I was like, what? +[1163.30 --> 1168.90] I thought I was the only one tasteless enough to wear that. All right, do you want to move on to the +[1168.90 --> 1173.94] next topic while I find the Batman thing? We can. So Valve wins and there will be no selling of +[1173.94 --> 1179.14] digitally used games. So this was in Germany, but it's probably going to spill over everywhere. +[1179.14 --> 1186.42] The Federation of German Consumer Organizations, also known as Verbrauchenszettelabendus... +[1188.34 --> 1194.98] Don't worry about it. And VZBZ for short was versus Valve and they were saying that there was a... +[1194.98 --> 1198.10] Where is it? European Union decision from 2012 that the states... +[1199.94 --> 1204.18] That states that companies cannot stop consumers from selling their digital products. +[1204.18 --> 1210.58] But Valve has been able to kind of get around that. They are not in that compilation and we expect +[1210.58 --> 1218.26] things like Origin and Uplay to have the same exemption status. Some people freaked out about +[1218.26 --> 1223.30] this, but I was actually surprised. I expected the gaming community to explode like the gaming community +[1223.30 --> 1228.58] always does. But as far as I can tell, no one really cares. I think that's probably tied into the +[1228.58 --> 1233.30] fact that Steam sales are so ridiculous that there's almost no point in ever selling a game +[1233.30 --> 1239.38] because you'll get 50 cents for it. And it's just really not a big deal. But yeah, I expected more +[1239.38 --> 1243.78] of a backlash from this. One thing that I worry about is when you go buy a game in the store now, +[1243.78 --> 1248.74] if you buy a physical copy of a game, half the time it's a disc, but then the disc just has a +[1248.74 --> 1254.42] Steam key or a Uplay key or an Origin key. Actually, pretty much always it's one of those situations. +[1254.42 --> 1260.10] And even if you install the game, it's just like, okay, it's installed. Now attach it to one of those +[1260.10 --> 1265.70] accounts so that you can actually play. Which, does that mean that that applies to physical games +[1265.70 --> 1270.34] as well? You can't sell them? Yes, because it's attached to that service and that service you can't +[1270.34 --> 1277.22] sell things on. So it's interesting. I also wonder about double standard issues where they freak out +[1277.22 --> 1282.42] if with DRM issues, there's always on DRM all over the place, and they'll shut down servers and they don't +[1282.42 --> 1287.14] care if your game has zero value anymore after buying it even at full price a year or two later. +[1287.14 --> 1291.38] That doesn't matter. You're just a consumer. Shut up, go away. This isn't a normal product. +[1291.38 --> 1297.62] But then if you want to resell it, it depends on what side of the battle you're on. And right now, +[1297.62 --> 1301.14] it's always on their side, which is... I'm not too stoked about that. +[1301.14 --> 1304.42] One thing I'm happy about, and I wasn't really listening to what you were saying because I was +[1304.42 --> 1309.54] looking this up. Sorry. So I apologize if I'm repeating myself. But one thing that I'm happy about +[1309.54 --> 1314.26] is that Valve at the very least has already announced family sharing. Yes. +[1314.26 --> 1320.82] So now it's kind of too late. The cat's out of the bag, which means that if Valve's going to offer +[1320.82 --> 1326.58] family sharing, which would allow at least people within the same house to share a game, then +[1328.26 --> 1333.06] someone's going to have to sort of figure out that, okay, Steam's really competitive. Okay, +[1333.06 --> 1338.18] maybe we'll do that on Origin. Okay, maybe we'll do it on Uplay. And I suspect we'll move towards that +[1338.18 --> 1345.54] as an industry standard. However, you know, the inability to resell games is a huge concern for +[1345.54 --> 1351.54] me because... and I think for a lot of people because for frequent upgraders, for hobbyists, +[1351.54 --> 1357.86] think about yourself as a hobbyist or enthusiast. I think that it's wrong to say that anyone who's an +[1357.86 --> 1364.82] enthusiast spends a ton of money. Maybe you spend a ton of money, but you find smarter ways to spend +[1364.82 --> 1368.82] your money. So for example, when I was in high school and I didn't have a lot of money, I didn't +[1368.82 --> 1373.86] have a full-time job. I was going to school. I was like lifeguarding one or two shifts on the weekends, +[1373.86 --> 1380.42] and that was all the spending money I had. I still had a ball in computer. And the way that I did that +[1380.42 --> 1388.18] was by spending smart. So I would go on the used forums and I would buy like the next one down, +[1388.18 --> 1395.30] and then I would acquire that. So I'd put my like my $200 down and that was tied up. It was in my +[1395.30 --> 1400.74] computer. And then what I would do is I would make sure I was keeping up on the news. And as soon as I +[1400.74 --> 1406.66] started to see rumors of something coming that would make that product irrelevant, I'd flip it quickly. +[1406.66 --> 1412.42] So I'd go, okay, I'm gonna, even though it's still kind of worth 200, I'm gonna flip it for, you know, +[1412.42 --> 1420.66] 175 or 180. Make sure that I move it quickly. Then I would take that cash and I would put my 180 that I +[1420.66 --> 1428.18] recovered from that original card. I'd pitch in maybe another $100. So I'm spending $120 over what I spent +[1428.18 --> 1434.34] six months ago. And I would get myself a higher tier of card this time. And I was able to gradually +[1435.14 --> 1440.58] build up my PC to be really awesome. And then I was able to keep it up to date by churning through +[1440.58 --> 1445.78] hardware by flipping it for sometimes more than what I paid. If you're a really, really savvy shopper, +[1446.34 --> 1453.14] this eliminates that it turns enthusiasts into a perceived wallet rather than people who can be +[1453.14 --> 1458.90] enthusiastic about something rather instead of just spending money on it. There, the difference between +[1458.90 --> 1464.66] spending a bunch of money and being an enthusiast. And this takes the enthusiast option, the savvy +[1464.66 --> 1470.50] enthusiast option away and turns us all into people who just have to spend a lot of money. Not everyone +[1470.50 --> 1475.70] has a ton of money. And you can make the argument, and we've talked about this before, well just don't +[1475.70 --> 1484.26] buy games at release. You can just not buy games at release. You can just say, look, EA, Ubisoft, +[1484.26 --> 1489.62] Valve for that matter, I'm not going to spend $60 on your game. I can wait two weeks because you're +[1489.62 --> 1493.62] going to drop the price to $40 anyway. Or with ESO when it goes free to play. +[1493.62 --> 1501.06] And that is an option. But unfortunately, when you think about enthusiasts, that's not how they are. +[1501.70 --> 1508.34] You want to be there in the thick of things. You want to be experiencing all the different areas and +[1508.34 --> 1513.78] talking about it with your friends because they're all doing that at the same time. And this locks those +[1513.78 --> 1519.86] people in and extracts more cash from them. And it makes me extremely unhappy. I also find it weird where +[1519.86 --> 1526.02] like you'd think if you lose all these freedoms by having a digital copy of something, you would +[1526.02 --> 1532.10] gain something. And the most obvious thing to gain from this situation would be cost savings. +[1532.10 --> 1536.02] Yeah. A digital copy of something should be drastically cheaper than a physical copy. +[1536.02 --> 1541.78] You would think that. They don't have to ship it. They don't have to print it. And something a lot of +[1541.78 --> 1547.14] people don't think about is that there's a lot more to it than shipping. There's the person to actually +[1547.14 --> 1553.38] put it on the shelf. I mean, there's the space. Do you have any idea how much retail space costs to +[1553.38 --> 1559.78] lease? So there's that. And then there's storage because space adds up over time. When you have +[1559.78 --> 1565.94] a pallet of something sitting in the back of a Best Buy. Do you have any idea how much that costs to +[1565.94 --> 1571.78] keep there for a month if it's not selling well? Physical media has so much more risk involved in it +[1571.78 --> 1577.30] and so much more cost involved. The fact that we're paying the same for digital media is criminal. +[1577.30 --> 1582.10] I was actually, I noticed this. I'd never had a Kindle before. I just uploaded my Kindle review last +[1582.10 --> 1588.74] night. My first one ever. And I noticed that Amazon's generous Lend to a Friend program allows you to +[1588.74 --> 1597.70] lend every ebook you buy once for a period of 14 days. Are you kidding me? I bought Story of Ice and Fire, +[1597.70 --> 1606.90] or whatever it is, the Game of Thrones books as a single ebook. 14 days? There's no way it's going to +[1606.90 --> 1613.22] happen. Impossible. I think it would actually take longer than 14 days of back-to-back reading to +[1613.22 --> 1619.94] Real-K. Probably not. No. But if you have a full-time job, it's not feasible. And that is really frustrating. +[1621.06 --> 1625.06] Apparently I'm way too into this. I'm sorry, Twitch chat, but it does, it does kind of... +[1625.06 --> 1629.38] He's just amped up right now. It does kind of get me going. He's just amped up. He's excited for later. +[1631.46 --> 1636.10] You just said, yeah, sorry. You said get me going. I had to. It's Valentine's Day. I can be excited for +[1636.10 --> 1643.46] later all I want. I know. Yeah, it's ridiculous. I, yeah. So here's where we're heading. Guys, +[1643.46 --> 1649.70] here's a little bit of insight. This won't last forever because people will be upset and competition +[1649.70 --> 1656.90] is still on our side. There are still competing entities. Nobody has a monopoly on all of this, +[1656.90 --> 1662.34] and thank goodness for that. It's damn close though. I know. But what will happen eventually +[1662.34 --> 1670.50] is this model will go away and it will be replaced by a model that we didn't really like and everyone +[1670.50 --> 1678.98] was pissed about, but we've started to accept. And that is the subscription model. Netflix is getting +[1678.98 --> 1687.22] away with it. How long is it going... Amazon has their lending program for Prime members. Okay. How long +[1687.22 --> 1693.46] is it going to be before gamers are just forced to suck it up? When the news about services like +[1693.46 --> 1700.10] OnLive, so that's on-demand streaming-based gaming services first started to surface, we all got so +[1700.10 --> 1706.82] mad because compared to what we had at the time, which was physical copies that we basically owned, +[1706.82 --> 1713.94] especially before pervasive always-on DRM came about, we basically owned them. Compared to that, +[1713.94 --> 1719.70] we were looking at this going, are you freaking kidding me? But over time, subscription-based +[1719.70 --> 1725.62] individual games with the justification of server upkeep like World of Warcraft have been successful. +[1725.62 --> 1731.70] Other subscription-based services have been successful. They've eroded our rights with respect +[1731.70 --> 1737.94] to the software that we lease from them, really, that we thought we owned, but actually we're leasing +[1737.94 --> 1746.90] from them to the point where that will become the more attractive alternative compared to buying +[1746.90 --> 1752.02] digital games that you don't have any rights for. There's some back and forth with that. I don't +[1752.02 --> 1758.50] mind individual games when they have subscription if there's enough justification for it. EVE Online +[1758.50 --> 1764.02] exists for a reason. Yes. EVE Online has existed for a very long time at a subscription fee because they +[1764.02 --> 1769.46] dump out so much stuff all the time that it kind of makes sense. You get all the expansions for free +[1769.46 --> 1773.70] because you're paying for them. Because you're paying for them. You're paying $15 a month. You're paying for +[1773.70 --> 1778.42] them. The WoW model is difficult because you buy the game up front and then you pay for all the +[1778.42 --> 1783.46] expansions. And then you pay for the subscription. And then you pay for in-game gold and you pay for... +[1783.46 --> 1791.06] I mean, you don't do that. No. You can do that in EVE, kind of. You buy these time codes and you can +[1791.06 --> 1796.26] sell them in-game. Like, officially. It's a real thing. It's done through the EVE website. I love this. +[1796.26 --> 1802.10] Fonzie Scheme says, I'm switching to board games exclusively. They're going to turn those digital too. So, +[1802.10 --> 1808.82] yeah, don't imagine that you're going to be free from... Actually, at CES, Intel was showing off a +[1808.82 --> 1814.34] large table-sized tablet, perfect for playing Monopoly. So you're screwed either way. Sorry, +[1814.34 --> 1821.30] go ahead. But I think it's probably coming, but I wouldn't be surprised if it does show up at some +[1821.30 --> 1830.02] point if they do themed stuff. Because there's so many games. Yeah. So I could easily see it being like, +[1830.02 --> 1834.58] I'm an RPG subscriber. That's an interesting thought. And that's probably the direction it's +[1834.58 --> 1838.42] going. You wouldn't just be a Steam subscriber. Because that's way too big. Or you could, but +[1838.42 --> 1843.78] that would be insanely expensive. Right. They'll probably have like the $200 or $300 a month ultimate +[1843.78 --> 1849.46] bundle and you can play anything on all of Steam. And that'll probably exist. But otherwise, it's +[1849.46 --> 1855.22] probably like... Or you could be like the week late one. Yeah. Or it's a subscriber thing, but +[1855.86 --> 1859.94] your subscriber thing, you get the games late. Oh, there's going to be... Or if you pay individually, +[1859.94 --> 1864.02] you get them on day of. There's going to be so many ways for them to squeeze an extra three or +[1864.02 --> 1870.02] four dollars out of us. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's going to be brutal because Netflix is a completely +[1870.02 --> 1875.30] different realm. When you get like games and the library that is Steam, which with green light and +[1875.30 --> 1881.62] everything is just all the time. Yeah. So you'll be looking at $50 a month for a basic subscription, +[1881.62 --> 1889.62] 60... to FPS, let's say for example. $60 a month includes all the DLC for those FPSs. And $70 a +[1889.62 --> 1896.50] month gives you a premium download service and access to better servers and includes a membership +[1896.50 --> 1901.30] in it like a TeamSpeak server. And $80 a month and there's going to... And it's going to go on and on and on. +[1901.30 --> 1906.82] And it almost makes more sense because you don't own any of that anyways, considering you're leasing +[1906.82 --> 1912.26] all of it anyways. Yep. So now you're just on a monthly lease instead of a permalease. It's like, +[1912.26 --> 1918.42] yeah. Someone says we can stop that from happening, just don't pay it. And I wish that was true. There +[1918.42 --> 1927.70] are so many things that I wish were true. Why didn't we stop Xbox Live Gold? Why did we pay for that? +[1927.70 --> 1934.02] I certainly didn't. I never gave them a penny for an Xbox Live Gold membership. But enough people did +[1934.02 --> 1940.02] that that is now something that we accept and Sony's doing it as well and it has become industry +[1940.02 --> 1945.22] standard. When did it become industry standard to pay for game servers and why do we accept this? +[1945.22 --> 1951.70] It was never industry standard before. When did we give them the option to take away +[1951.70 --> 1958.02] the ability for us to host our own game servers? Why is it that you can still play Team Fortress 1 +[1958.02 --> 1964.82] and original Counter-Strike? Because Valve cared. Or maybe they just don't care anymore at this point. +[1964.82 --> 1969.54] Whatever the case may be. They gave us the option. Whereas you look at... What was that stupid game +[1969.54 --> 1971.54] that got pulled off of Steam not that long ago? +[1971.54 --> 1975.30] I don't even remember the name. Yeah, I don't remember the name. It was some flying game. +[1975.30 --> 1979.78] And the point is that it got shut down and the servers don't exist anymore. The game doesn't exist +[1979.78 --> 1986.10] for paying customers because we allowed our... I mean at the time we considered them rights, I guess, +[1986.10 --> 1990.74] we allowed our rights to be eroded and we just accepted it. And we kept giving them our money. +[1990.74 --> 1996.34] And I always get ragged on for my love of physical copies of things, but I honestly think that's part of +[1996.34 --> 2001.22] it. I've always liked a physical copy of something because even though a lot of them now are literally just +[2001.22 --> 2007.14] ports for Steam keys, I feel like I actually own something. We've let ownership completely disappear. +[2008.10 --> 2014.10] Which I don't like at all. I mean unless it's like slavery, you shouldn't own people. +[2014.10 --> 2016.50] Well, I'm not trying to own people though. I'm trying to own that. +[2016.50 --> 2020.26] You're not trying to own people? What kind of gamer are you? Yes! Setup! +[2020.26 --> 2024.82] Man, you had that set up a really long time before that. Okay, yeah. +[2026.50 --> 2026.98] I'm sorry. +[2026.98 --> 2033.30] Seriously though, like... Do you want to hear me rant for another 10 minutes or should we move on to +[2033.30 --> 2039.22] something else? Let's skip that one for now. We've come into this weird... +[2039.22 --> 2046.42] And one of my videos going up this weekend... Oh man! You guys prepare yourselves. This product, +[2046.42 --> 2055.46] this manufacturer, this product, anyway. You just... Anyway, okay. Posted by Biebskadoo on the forum, +[2055.46 --> 2058.42] Google Voice. Search just got a lot smarter. Hit it. +[2058.42 --> 2059.30] Meh. +[2059.30 --> 2061.22] Oh, come on! +[2061.22 --> 2061.78] Meh. +[2061.78 --> 2065.30] Well, I'm thirsty, so you're going to have to do it while I go get a drink. +[2065.30 --> 2065.86] Okay, well... +[2065.86 --> 2066.74] When I talk too much. +[2066.74 --> 2071.54] Apparently now they have a field where you can put in your relationship with that contact, +[2071.54 --> 2076.26] so you can be like, this is my uncle, or this is my mom, or this is my dad, or whatever you want to do. +[2076.26 --> 2081.06] Okay, I have to rant for a second. And yet, they still haven't figured out that you might want to +[2081.06 --> 2085.70] put multiple contacts and tie them all to the same number. If anyone from Google is watching, +[2085.70 --> 2090.82] why can't I put my grandpa Archie and my grandma Donna, both in my address book, +[2090.82 --> 2094.02] and just have the same number for both of them? So that I don't have to think about it. So I don't +[2094.02 --> 2098.42] have to remember, did I put them under grandma and grandpa? Did I put them under Archie and Donna? +[2098.42 --> 2103.94] And I put them under Donna and Archie? Why do I have to remember that crap? I'm getting a drink. +[2103.94 --> 2109.30] Okay, so you can attach these labels essentially to different people, which is their relationship +[2109.30 --> 2113.94] status with you. So cool, you can say call dad, or you can say call mom. +[2113.94 --> 2123.86] Not to mention, not to mention that Android's voice calling is ridiculous. On iOS, I can just say +[2123.86 --> 2132.42] call wife mobile. And it says calling wife mobile. And it rings. On Android, it's like, +[2132.42 --> 2139.30] call wife mobile. It's like calling wife. Do you want to dial? And she's got like four numbers. +[2139.30 --> 2144.66] And then it's like, okay, that one. And it takes forever to get to this option. And it's like, +[2144.66 --> 2150.98] do you want? Yes. Yes, I do. Why does it take so long? Okay. It's like they want me to use my +[2150.98 --> 2157.46] phone when I'm driving. It's like Google wants to kill us. Speaking of Apple products, actually, +[2157.46 --> 2161.78] because I don't normally do that, because I don't normally like them. In this case, they actually +[2161.78 --> 2167.38] definitely had the one up. So with with Apple, there's a tap to add custom label, and you can add +[2167.38 --> 2172.26] whatever the heck you want. So you could be mom or whatever. And then if you say call mom, +[2172.26 --> 2176.26] and it doesn't know your mom's number, say you haven't added that custom label. If you say call +[2176.26 --> 2180.58] mom, it'll ask you what is your mom's name. And then if you tell it your mom's name, it'll find +[2180.58 --> 2184.82] that person in your contact list, add that custom field for you, and then call them. +[2187.46 --> 2192.90] GG. I don't even know why this is a news article. Linus put it in here. So I filled it out with +[2192.90 --> 2196.82] everything that's on there. I guess he put it in here so that he could rant about the things that he +[2196.82 --> 2200.34] doesn't like that already exist that don't necessarily pertain to this. +[2202.98 --> 2208.90] I don't know. This was linked, like he said, by Beefskidoo on the forum. Let's see where the source +[2208.90 --> 2217.54] is from. Just none of my cares about is linked. It's from The Verge. I just, and like, honestly, +[2217.54 --> 2224.74] and I know not everyone does this, but my dad in my phone is just dad. And then his full name after +[2224.74 --> 2229.22] that. His first name is his middle name. And then his last name is our last name. +[2229.22 --> 2231.78] Why do we have to use workarounds? That's what I want to know. +[2233.62 --> 2236.90] Well, I was just talking about how serious thing does it better anyways. +[2236.90 --> 2241.70] Oh, yeah. Yeah. Do you know about the, if you say call mom, it'll ask you who your mom is, +[2241.70 --> 2245.30] and then you just tell it who your mom is, and then it adds a custom field that they're your mom, +[2245.30 --> 2248.18] and then they just calls them? Some days I'm tempted to go back to Apple. +[2248.82 --> 2254.66] I'm still not, but I'm just not impressed by this. Like, cool. Okay, it's there, but... +[2254.66 --> 2257.94] At least they're improving. I just don't see how it's a news item. +[2258.58 --> 2261.86] So I think it's come down to which thing you want to fight about next. +[2263.22 --> 2267.86] Really? Oh, you know what? No, I'm not that angry about the Oculus thing. I'll let you be angry about +[2267.86 --> 2271.30] that. I'm actually not super... There's, there's reason. Okay, so... +[2271.30 --> 2279.06] What? Oh, the page you're looking for cannot be found. Well, let's try it again. Minus Tech Tips, +[2279.06 --> 2282.18] Oculus... It worked on mine. That's weird. +[2284.90 --> 2291.70] That's weird. One of the problems... Which one are you clicking on? I don't know. Anyway, okay, well, +[2291.70 --> 2298.58] the point is... Are you clicking on this one? Oculus... Yeah. That's weird, hey? Okay, anyway, +[2298.58 --> 2306.66] let's move on. So go ahead. Huh. Anyways, so there's a company called Oculew. What they do is they +[2306.66 --> 2311.38] supply side video slash pre-roll monetization platform for publishers, professional, seamless, +[2311.38 --> 2316.74] whatever, ad-free delivery video platform for businesses, whatever you want. And they have +[2316.74 --> 2323.30] solutions like video encoding, video SEO, video email, and syndication, real-time video management, +[2323.30 --> 2328.58] and analytics available are 24-7, blah, blah, blah, blah. They're video embedding and video +[2328.58 --> 2332.98] streaming solutions. So essentially, instead of just embedding YouTube videos on your website, +[2332.98 --> 2339.46] you could embed your own videos fairly easily on your website with metrics and proper SEO and all +[2339.46 --> 2346.66] that kind of stuff. And their name is Oculew, spelt exactly the same as Oculus without the final S. +[2346.66 --> 2352.26] And they are mad because it's spelt exactly the same as Oculus without the final S. +[2352.26 --> 2358.98] And they existed before Oculus. A quote from Palmer Luckey, I can't remember exactly how you say his +[2358.98 --> 2364.26] last name, said, unfortunately, he decided to... +[2367.14 --> 2371.94] They didn't just decide to put an S on the end of Oculew, is essentially what he's trying to say. +[2371.94 --> 2376.74] That was never their plan. What they're trying to say is Oculus, the Latin word for an I. +[2377.46 --> 2381.46] They had... they weren't... they weren't adding an S to some other company's final name. +[2381.46 --> 2386.18] The problem is that it doesn't really matter. You're still one letter off of another company's name. +[2386.18 --> 2387.14] And it's... +[2387.14 --> 2389.14] But the company's not even in a competing industry. +[2390.18 --> 2392.58] Their fight for that is that they could be. +[2392.58 --> 2395.14] They could be, but they aren't. +[2395.14 --> 2400.10] They're defining what they do. It's... it's definition... I'm not on their side. +[2400.10 --> 2400.50] I know. +[2400.50 --> 2402.18] I'm just playing from their side. +[2402.18 --> 2402.90] I'm just angry still. +[2402.90 --> 2405.54] So, yes, so am I. Um... +[2405.54 --> 2410.26] Their whole thing is their video streaming. They're not trying to be like, we do exactly these things, +[2410.26 --> 2415.54] because what if they spread out from what they're doing? So they're video streaming. And what they're +[2415.54 --> 2420.98] saying is Oculus could very easily on their roadmap have video streaming. Because what if you start +[2420.98 --> 2425.94] watching videos or certain experiences that come from Oculus servers? Oculus is getting into game +[2425.94 --> 2432.26] development and media stuff. So they're saying eventually their roads could cross. So take +[2432.26 --> 2438.50] care of it now, because it's a one letter off name for companies that could cross each other. I... +[2440.58 --> 2444.18] I still think it's completely ridiculous, because if I hear Oculew... +[2444.18 --> 2445.78] And they don't sound alike. +[2445.78 --> 2450.34] It doesn't sound different. If it was Oculew, like that's actually a pretty big difference. +[2450.34 --> 2450.90] Oculew! +[2450.90 --> 2454.90] It's a really weird word, Oculew. But if that was actually what it sounded like, +[2455.78 --> 2458.98] maybe, I don't know. I just... +[2461.06 --> 2466.42] The one thing that was kind of funny is if you Google Oculew, the first result is Oculus. +[2467.38 --> 2468.10] That's probably not helping. +[2468.10 --> 2468.90] It's not helping. +[2471.62 --> 2474.90] It's not helping at all, but I find it hilarious. It's just because Google is +[2474.90 --> 2477.22] auto-correcting the last letter. It doesn't know what it sounds like. +[2477.22 --> 2481.94] But right, because no one's actually searching for Oculus. Sorry, you're just not as popular as Oculus, +[2481.94 --> 2484.34] because you're not... You know what? The reality of it is... +[2484.34 --> 2485.46] They're not a small company. +[2485.46 --> 2487.14] I know. Oh, that's fine. +[2487.14 --> 2487.78] A lot of people... +[2487.78 --> 2488.74] I said unpopular. +[2488.74 --> 2491.70] I know, but I have to put that out there, because a lot of people have been saying +[2491.70 --> 2495.62] that they're a small company. They're not a small company. They're just not a consumer-facing company. +[2495.62 --> 2502.90] Yeah. This is kind of like when people were baffled that Toshiba bought OCZ, OCZ's SSD business. +[2502.90 --> 2506.98] And they were like, well, Toshiba doesn't have any presence in the SSD... Oh, yes, they do have +[2506.98 --> 2512.18] presence in the SSD space. They're huge. They just don't necessarily sell to consumers. But many of +[2512.18 --> 2517.86] your laptops very likely contain Toshiba SSDs with their toggle man. They're an actual manufacturer. +[2517.86 --> 2525.54] Anyway, all that aside, I don't think it's going to matter. Either Oculus is going to have to change +[2525.54 --> 2533.38] their name or they're not. And if they change their name, does it matter? Are you not going to buy one +[2533.38 --> 2536.18] because they changed their name? It could hurt their trending. +[2536.18 --> 2540.98] Maybe. Part of the problem is a lot of people think it's called an Oculus. +[2543.06 --> 2547.46] Yeah, that's true. The Oculus name has been passed around more than the Rift name has. +[2547.46 --> 2552.18] That's true. No one says buying a Rift. No. Because what's a Rift? +[2552.18 --> 2558.74] I even catch myself very consistently saying I'm looking into an Oculus or whatever because they +[2558.74 --> 2564.02] only have one product. So a lot of people do that. Which is going to be part of the problem if they +[2564.02 --> 2568.18] have to change their name. Now, knowing them, they'll probably change it to something similar, +[2568.18 --> 2571.22] but not similar enough that someone can sue them. Boculus. +[2571.22 --> 2575.94] I wonder if there's a Latin name for two eyes. +[2575.94 --> 2579.38] The fake of it, like the cheap Chinese clone could be called a Croculus. +[2584.10 --> 2586.98] And the one for investment bankers could be called the Stockulus. +[2586.98 --> 2591.62] Awww. And if you're making fun of the whole thing, you could wear a Moculus. +[2593.46 --> 2600.82] I'm sorry, I'll stop. Yeah. I wonder if there's a different Latin word for eyes instead of eye. +[2600.82 --> 2605.62] I don't think so. Because Oculus is an eye. So hopefully they can, I don't know, +[2605.62 --> 2611.62] hopefully they can find something that makes sense if they have to change their name, but I fully expect +[2611.62 --> 2616.26] them to fight it at this point. Although it is unfortunate because you would hope that all that +[2616.26 --> 2620.42] money that they just got, that $75 million of investment that they very recently got, +[2620.42 --> 2626.26] would go towards making the consumer release instead of fighting someone for a freaking name. +[2626.26 --> 2632.34] I'm getting really tired of all the trademarky stuff in the last little while. Candy and Saga, +[2632.98 --> 2637.06] it's like, man, go away. And Latin words. +[2637.06 --> 2641.46] Words. Like that's, that's, that's one thing that sucks too, is it's a word. Yeah. Whereas +[2641.46 --> 2647.70] Oculu isn't. Is not. So it's like, really, really? No, you can't just make something that's +[2647.70 --> 2654.34] like, you can't say your, your, your word is Bok, B-O-K. And they're like, oh, well, +[2654.34 --> 2659.94] your name can't be book. Right. They don't sound the same. They're one letter off. Right. +[2659.94 --> 2663.86] That doesn't make a lot of sense. You should be Oculus' lawyer. I should. Yeah. +[2663.86 --> 2669.78] That would be cool. If I, if they would let me see the release version. Yeah. You should be like, +[2669.78 --> 2677.86] you should be like, if someone else's name was L-U-K, which isn't a real name, can I not be named Luke? +[2681.86 --> 2688.90] I mean, consider Chewbacca. He's a Wookiee. He lives on the planet Kashyyyk. Does this make sense? +[2688.90 --> 2695.22] Okay. So let's move on to the ISP disaster in the U.S. +[2696.18 --> 2696.82] Wait. Oh. +[2696.82 --> 2707.54] Comcast to buy, and this was posted by Pit5000. And Pit5000 is probably the place where all the +[2707.54 --> 2714.18] subscribers of Comcast or Time Warner Cable services are thinking about throwing themselves. +[2714.18 --> 2727.10] Because this is terrible. A Comcast takeover of Time Warner Cable would be, I mean, they're both evil enough as it is. +[2727.10 --> 2744.14] And it's already enough of a, you know, backdoor colluding relationship going on between ISPs, here in North America anyway, in general, without them actually merging. +[2744.14 --> 2751.26] There's, and there's some things that just totally don't seem right. So in a quote they say, +[2751.26 --> 2759.26] um, it will not re-, it will not reduce competition in any relevant market because our companies do not overlap completely with each other. +[2759.26 --> 2768.86] In fact, we do not operate in any of the same zip code. When I read that, even without doing any further research, I was like, wow, that sounds impossible. +[2768.86 --> 2776.70] Then reading on the thread on our forum, someone said, the only services offered in my area are these two companies. +[2778.38 --> 2786.80] So, like, I haven't actually gone and looked at a coverage map, but I'm assuming that guy on the forum isn't just lying for fun. +[2787.84 --> 2792.60] And it makes complete sense that they would both be offered in at least some type of overlap somewhere. +[2792.82 --> 2797.78] And saying that they do not operate in any of the same zip code sounds a little bit insane. +[2797.78 --> 2800.42] Maybe someone in Twitch chat can tell me that I'm wrong. +[2800.42 --> 2801.38] Yeah, let us know. +[2801.38 --> 2807.30] Because I haven't done deep research of this, so I could definitely be wrong. But like, really? I don't know. That seems a little bit sketchy to me. +[2807.30 --> 2811.14] I mean, was this kind of consolidation bound to happen? +[2812.26 --> 2815.86] Forget the ISP side of things. Let's talk about cable TV. +[2816.42 --> 2822.96] Were all the cable TV providers going to survive? Because, I don't know about you, but I sure as heck don't have a cable TV subscription. +[2823.16 --> 2826.68] I'm not planning to get one. I will never, ever need one ever again in my life. +[2826.68 --> 2827.88] I have never had one. +[2828.68 --> 2836.12] I think my parents had one for a not super large period of time, when my grandpa was kind of staying with us for a while because he wanted to watch it. +[2836.12 --> 2838.18] Other than that, don't think we really had one. +[2839.16 --> 2845.56] And then since I have moved out, which was actually a fair amount of years ago, I have never had one, and I have never cared. +[2845.56 --> 2849.56] So we've had someone say they don't directly compete. +[2849.56 --> 2855.00] And that's, I mean, that's another thing too, is, what do you mean don't directly compete? +[2855.00 --> 2862.76] I mean, if you're in neighboring territories, wouldn't it be beneficial to control them both? +[2862.76 --> 2866.02] I don't know. +[2867.96 --> 2869.76] They have, so I thought they have, yeah, okay. +[2869.86 --> 2870.66] So someone says blah, blah, blah. +[2870.74 --> 2873.54] They have localized monopolies in all areas because of the infrastructure. +[2875.00 --> 2878.42] Someone says Time Warner Cable is better than Comcast. +[2878.64 --> 2882.98] Someone says, well, my parents just canceled TV and use internet now. +[2883.90 --> 2884.64] Someone says Slick. +[2884.68 --> 2885.64] Let me get that shirt. +[2885.64 --> 2888.10] I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. +[2888.24 --> 2889.72] Someone asked me what racket I have. +[2889.84 --> 2891.54] I use an Armortech 900 technique. +[2892.48 --> 2893.26] For you version. +[2894.14 --> 2895.76] With the longer handle. +[2895.78 --> 2897.14] Okay, so local law, this is stupid. +[2897.56 --> 2902.48] Local laws do not allow more than one ISP in an area in most places in the States. +[2903.24 --> 2905.04] That's just plain stupid. +[2905.32 --> 2907.46] Actually, I didn't even know that because I'm Canadian. +[2907.66 --> 2908.32] I didn't know that either. +[2908.32 --> 2914.14] We have crappy ISPs, but at least we can choose which pile of poo we like. +[2914.48 --> 2914.92] Or both. +[2915.02 --> 2915.56] Or both. +[2915.64 --> 2918.60] Currently, we chose both. +[2918.84 --> 2920.10] Yeah, we chose both. +[2921.14 --> 2926.70] We want to give all of our money to all of them because we need to cue dramatic music. +[2926.84 --> 2927.92] We have a mixer now. +[2928.08 --> 2931.00] We need to get some tracks like they have on the radio. +[2933.88 --> 2937.96] I want to live in a world where we can give our money to every service provider. +[2938.46 --> 2941.00] Monthly, on the 1st and 15th of the month. +[2941.30 --> 2945.62] Never missing a payment because missing a payment is not North America. +[2945.64 --> 2946.18] I can... +[2946.18 --> 2949.96] We want to pay for Netflix and games. +[2951.10 --> 2951.42] Monthly. +[2951.42 --> 2955.78] And cable TV because Netflix should never have sporting events on it. +[2955.78 --> 2961.42] Instead, I should have one service for live and one service for video on demand. +[2962.24 --> 2964.06] And another service for movies. +[2964.30 --> 2965.18] And YouTube. +[2965.42 --> 2966.74] I want to pay for that too. +[2966.74 --> 2974.08] Eventually, you'll just get this combined check from the combined conglomerate that is all of the companies. +[2974.46 --> 2977.52] It'll be like, this is your monthly check for content and entertainment. +[2977.92 --> 2979.62] Bye-bye to half of your paycheck. +[2981.24 --> 2981.64] Owned. +[2981.64 --> 2983.68] Well, it's like... +[2983.68 --> 2984.66] Oh, right. +[2984.74 --> 2985.32] The buy and large. +[2985.38 --> 2985.56] Yeah. +[2985.64 --> 2987.00] The buy and large from Wall-E. +[2987.06 --> 2988.24] It all comes back to that. +[2988.36 --> 2994.52] At some point, Costco, Amazon, and Google are all just going to merge. +[2995.02 --> 2995.90] And then that'll be that. +[2996.02 --> 2996.62] Well, that was... +[2996.62 --> 2997.22] Oh, nope. +[2997.26 --> 3000.50] Not going to go into that yet because we haven't argued and been pissed off about that yet. +[3000.56 --> 3001.52] So I'll talk about that later. +[3001.60 --> 3001.72] Yeah. +[3001.72 --> 3002.54] We'll talk about that later. +[3002.92 --> 3003.18] All right. +[3003.52 --> 3004.52] What else we got here? +[3004.68 --> 3005.60] Oh, I... +[3005.60 --> 3005.86] Happy topic. +[3006.26 --> 3006.60] I'm sorry? +[3006.76 --> 3007.32] Happy topic. +[3007.40 --> 3007.86] Happy topic. +[3007.98 --> 3008.22] Yeah. +[3009.08 --> 3009.44] Is that... +[3009.44 --> 3009.74] Yeah, yeah. +[3009.76 --> 3010.56] That's the one I was going to... +[3010.56 --> 3020.68] So Timmy from Timmy Tech TV, one of our fellow YouTuber buddies here, is doing a donation per subscriber to Cocoon House. +[3020.90 --> 3027.38] So up to $2,500, Tim is going to donate 10 cents per subscriber. +[3027.52 --> 3028.72] So I already tweeted about this. +[3028.78 --> 3031.68] So you can find that in my Twitter feed if you want to know more about it. +[3032.30 --> 3035.60] But it's at TimmyTechTV on the Twitter. +[3036.22 --> 3037.34] And there you go. +[3037.40 --> 3040.28] You guys can definitely check that out. +[3040.40 --> 3041.94] He makes tech videos as well. +[3043.52 --> 3046.06] And let's move into our Squarespace thing. +[3046.18 --> 3051.94] So guys, if you haven't already heard of Squarespace, Squarespace, and if you go to squarespace.com slash Linus, +[3052.08 --> 3057.36] then you can definitely give us credit when you go and check it out and try out a free subscription or free trial rather. +[3057.36 --> 3063.90] They give you two weeks to build up a little website for yourself and pretty it up and then decide if you like it. +[3063.94 --> 3065.26] It's a subscription-based service. +[3065.36 --> 3066.80] Speaking of subscription-based services. +[3067.18 --> 3070.34] But at least this is one that makes sense because they do a lot of stuff for you. +[3070.34 --> 3078.44] In addition to giving you the tools to create a website that looks great and is functional, whether it's on the desktop or on a mobile platform, +[3078.78 --> 3081.98] they will also cover the actual hosting fees for you. +[3082.20 --> 3083.78] And it's all dynamically adjustable. +[3083.78 --> 3088.92] So if you, for whatever reason, were doing a live stream to almost 4,000 people and you were like, +[3089.00 --> 3092.06] guys, why don't you all hit LinusMediaGroup.com? +[3092.12 --> 3096.96] At exactly the same time, it would kind of go, yeah, we're good. +[3097.26 --> 3106.10] And it can dynamically adjust itself in a way that like a small web hosting server somewhere on a limited connection might not be able to handle. +[3106.56 --> 3111.12] Squarespace also has a new tool called Logo, which I think is pretty self-explanatory. +[3111.12 --> 3114.24] It's a very easy logo generator that allows you to make a little logo. +[3114.42 --> 3120.06] It has little graphics that you can choose that are contributed by artists and you can make yourself a nice little business card. +[3120.22 --> 3127.52] It's not meant to replace professional artists, but at least it's something for very small businesses or charities or blogs. +[3127.70 --> 3133.08] Or if you want to make a portfolio website, it gives you something that you can put on there so that it looks more professional. +[3133.40 --> 3140.08] The last thing that I wanted to bring up about Squarespace is they're doing a huge recruitment campaign. +[3140.08 --> 3142.32] So they're calling this Be A Part Of It. +[3142.62 --> 3149.08] You go ahead and apply and so you can register to sort of indicate your interest in a job. +[3149.24 --> 3151.92] And there's actually a bunch of really cool stuff about this program. +[3152.08 --> 3159.90] So number one is that they are giving a bounty to anyone who refers someone who eventually does get hired. +[3159.90 --> 3163.52] So I actually didn't copy all of my notes for this. +[3163.58 --> 3167.46] So this is going to be embarrassing when my Squarespace contact reads this. +[3167.62 --> 3168.60] Oh, that's funny. +[3168.96 --> 3170.22] Oh, I went to the wrong URL. +[3170.58 --> 3171.82] No, I did go to the right URL. +[3171.82 --> 3172.44] Oh, there we go. +[3172.44 --> 3173.00] Sorry. +[3173.00 --> 3182.08] By the time the Twitch stream caught up with you after you said that you could point everyone to the website, we did significantly increase the ping, but not beyond reasonable levels. +[3182.34 --> 3184.54] And then it did fracture itself back down. +[3184.64 --> 3185.42] Yeah, I know. +[3185.52 --> 3186.08] See, it works. +[3186.08 --> 3195.12] Anyway, so when you interview at Squarespace, so if you get called for an interview, you and your spouse or partner get to go to New York for the weekend, which is kind of cool. +[3195.20 --> 3198.54] They're looking to hire 30 engineers and designers by March 15th. +[3198.54 --> 3199.74] So it's about a month. +[3199.74 --> 3207.32] You get to experience New York by working there and obviously during your weekend that they pay for you to come and interview. +[3208.22 --> 3212.24] They have grown from a single person startup to a visionary technology company of over 250. +[3212.40 --> 3216.12] This is part of their whole sort of pitch as to why you would want to work there. +[3216.40 --> 3222.64] They talk about their jobs, how they're one of the best places to work, and they've won awards for being the best place to work in 2012 and 2013. +[3222.86 --> 3223.24] It's kind of cool. +[3223.28 --> 3223.92] Maybe I should apply. +[3224.42 --> 3225.56] And check this out. +[3225.80 --> 3228.52] Refer a friend and fly to New York. +[3228.52 --> 3230.36] I guess that's what the bounty is. +[3230.62 --> 3231.38] So there you go, guys. +[3231.42 --> 3232.22] You should check that out. +[3232.34 --> 3236.38] It's beapartofit.squarespace.com. +[3236.62 --> 3243.82] And then, of course, if you do decide that you just want to use the service and have a website, then go ahead and head over to squarespace.com slash Linus. +[3243.94 --> 3249.18] You get 10% off your membership if you use our offer code, which is Linus2. +[3249.42 --> 3251.10] I should probably have that up there. +[3251.22 --> 3251.34] See? +[3251.66 --> 3252.38] Just like that. +[3252.46 --> 3253.50] Linus2 right over there. +[3253.68 --> 3254.76] If you use Linus2. +[3255.24 --> 3258.34] And I'm missing something. +[3258.52 --> 3258.70] Right. +[3258.94 --> 3262.00] They pay for your domain if you sign up for a year right from the get-go. +[3262.22 --> 3266.18] So they'll give you a free domain in addition to the hosting that you're already paying them for. +[3268.36 --> 3269.70] How does that domain thing you work? +[3270.26 --> 3273.38] If they pay for your domain and then you leave, can you take the domain? +[3273.64 --> 3274.16] Not sure. +[3275.10 --> 3278.02] But you got 14 days of free trial to ask them questions. +[3278.10 --> 3279.22] They have 24-7 support. +[3279.78 --> 3281.36] See, they have so many talking points. +[3281.44 --> 3282.88] I can't cover them all in a single read. +[3283.94 --> 3285.38] Oh, you were leading me into more talking points. +[3285.38 --> 3285.82] That's okay. +[3285.82 --> 3288.70] I think I covered it pretty well. +[3288.70 --> 3290.76] I think you guys mostly know what Squarespace is. +[3290.84 --> 3293.54] It's just the kind of thing that you have to kind of try it to believe it. +[3293.74 --> 3297.44] We switched from a WordPress site to Squarespace for linusmediagroup.com. +[3297.94 --> 3301.26] And yeah, that's what my web guy looked like when we did it. +[3301.26 --> 3306.06] Because instead of him picking at every little thing bit by bit, which you can play around +[3306.06 --> 3310.92] with on Squarespace, but you don't have to, it was able to be done by Edsel in less than +[3310.92 --> 3311.24] a day. +[3311.34 --> 3312.88] And I'm not a designer. +[3313.08 --> 3313.30] Yeah. +[3313.70 --> 3317.28] So it's the kind of thing that designers or even non-designers can do if you have a little +[3317.28 --> 3317.84] bit of know-how. +[3318.24 --> 3318.54] All right. +[3318.58 --> 3320.40] So let's move into our next topic. +[3321.86 --> 3323.46] Oh, it's going to be an angry topic. +[3323.52 --> 3324.94] Which one do you want to fight about? +[3326.20 --> 3327.50] I'm going to let you pick. +[3328.40 --> 3330.82] Should we do Flappy Bird so we can start getting people talking about it now? +[3330.96 --> 3331.28] Yeah. +[3331.36 --> 3332.26] Let's do Flappy Birds. +[3332.64 --> 3332.90] Okay. +[3333.58 --> 3334.78] Freaking Flappy Bird. +[3335.48 --> 3335.80] Yeah. +[3336.06 --> 3337.08] Freaking Flappy Bird. +[3337.24 --> 3341.32] So there's a massive amount of people disagreeing with each other. +[3341.56 --> 3347.16] And as far as I can tell, just massive mountains of misinformation as the actual guy himself +[3347.16 --> 3348.96] has really not said that much. +[3349.04 --> 3349.14] Yeah. +[3349.26 --> 3354.06] Dong Nguyen has taken the game down, but it's done so fairly quietly. +[3354.42 --> 3355.18] Fairly quietly. +[3355.32 --> 3356.14] He hasn't said a ton. +[3356.14 --> 3360.48] There is people that have like screen captured some of his tweets, but usually it's like he +[3360.48 --> 3366.04] said four to five words and then people have essays on what. +[3366.04 --> 3369.02] He's actually saying, but like, we're not interpreting a poem. +[3369.22 --> 3371.42] Part of the problem is for one, he's ESL. +[3371.50 --> 3373.82] So he's, he has interpreted a lot of people incorrectly. +[3374.04 --> 3377.22] I think that's actually sort of an impolite term these days. +[3377.70 --> 3378.06] Is it? +[3378.20 --> 3378.84] Yeah, I think so. +[3378.96 --> 3382.86] But like, sorry, we're not like, we're not trying to be rude or anything. +[3383.00 --> 3384.42] It just means English second language. +[3384.52 --> 3385.26] That's all we intended. +[3385.40 --> 3390.06] And the only reason why I'm saying that is, uh, I know some of it, at least some portion +[3390.06 --> 3390.32] of it. +[3390.38 --> 3395.76] This part is fairly straightforward is because he was getting a lot of, uh, what he felt +[3395.76 --> 3396.58] were attacks. +[3396.84 --> 3401.38] Someone would say like, I've been playing for the last eight hours and my eyes are bleeding. +[3401.94 --> 3402.82] I hate you. +[3403.40 --> 3406.50] But like, that's not actually necessarily a negative thing. +[3407.54 --> 3409.44] I don't think they really mean the I hate you part. +[3409.44 --> 3412.24] And they've been playing for the last eight hours probably because they enjoy it. +[3412.68 --> 3416.50] Um, but he received that very negatively and was like, oh my God, I'm sorry. +[3416.66 --> 3417.88] I, you shouldn't have played this much. +[3417.96 --> 3418.36] I'm sorry. +[3419.04 --> 3422.72] Um, and I think he's having a lot of trouble with all the pressure. +[3423.22 --> 3424.20] That's for sure. +[3424.38 --> 3427.10] But it's a lot of other things that people have been speculating about that we don't +[3427.10 --> 3428.02] really know. +[3428.34 --> 3432.54] Um, people have said that he makes 50k like a day on it or something like that. +[3433.18 --> 3437.60] Um, but then like, where does that necessarily come from? +[3437.60 --> 3441.60] Uh, I've heard that the original source for that might not have actually been 100% accurate +[3441.60 --> 3446.36] or that it might've been an estimation or it was accurate or it's totally not accurate. +[3446.36 --> 3447.14] Who knows? +[3447.52 --> 3453.12] Uh, if you go to our social media page for our social blade page, sorry, um, for Linus +[3453.12 --> 3455.46] Tech Tips, that's totally not accurate. +[3456.14 --> 3461.06] Um, yeah, we can't tell you how much our earnings actually are because it's against the terms of +[3461.06 --> 3466.12] our agreement with Google, but I can tell you that a, that's an extremely wide range. +[3466.12 --> 3472.90] It's actually a full order of magnitude from the minimum to the maximum and B like, it's +[3472.90 --> 3476.06] not even necessarily closer to one or the other. +[3476.18 --> 3478.78] It's just, yeah. +[3478.94 --> 3479.72] Totally flippity flabby. +[3479.72 --> 3480.36] It's a number. +[3480.64 --> 3480.88] Yeah. +[3481.40 --> 3482.30] And enjoy it. +[3482.48 --> 3486.44] There's people saying he took it down for legal reasons, even when he said he didn't, but +[3486.44 --> 3488.64] then it kind of might make sense that he did. +[3488.70 --> 3490.02] And then who the heck knows? +[3490.02 --> 3494.40] Uh, there's people wondering if he's having problems with Nintendo because of the pipes +[3494.40 --> 3496.18] and then who the heck knows? +[3496.38 --> 3498.08] The game's not even good. +[3498.58 --> 3501.86] It's like, how did this become an internet sensation? +[3502.96 --> 3507.36] There's, there's been people saying that he got bots to download it and rate it so that +[3507.36 --> 3510.00] it would go up to the top of the list so that people would actually start playing it. +[3510.06 --> 3511.20] And then that's why it played. +[3511.26 --> 3512.28] But then who knows? +[3512.28 --> 3514.08] Then why would he take it down at that point? +[3514.10 --> 3515.14] Then why would he take it down? +[3515.20 --> 3516.22] Because he's making so much money. +[3516.36 --> 3517.58] Did he copy the game? +[3517.90 --> 3520.06] Is it just a new version of Helicopter? +[3520.12 --> 3520.74] But then who cares? +[3520.88 --> 3521.74] But then did he copy a new... +[3521.74 --> 3523.00] Everything's a new version of Helicopter. +[3523.04 --> 3523.16] Yeah. +[3523.42 --> 3525.94] But then, but then did he copy a newer game? +[3526.10 --> 3528.86] Uh, someone else that also made a new version of Helicopter. +[3529.54 --> 3533.88] Um, TotalBiscuit has good comments on it where he actually doesn't say a ton about it, but +[3533.88 --> 3537.82] he's talking, he's talking to his own subreddit about why he's abandoning the subreddit. +[3537.94 --> 3541.04] It's because he can't take all the, all the hate essentially. +[3541.04 --> 3543.00] All the people attacking him over so many things. +[3543.42 --> 3548.14] And he brings up the Flappy Bird context, which that makes sense because there's so much... +[3548.14 --> 3549.32] It, it was so sudden. +[3549.48 --> 3550.12] It was so quick. +[3550.24 --> 3555.50] It was, uh, zero to not hero all of a sudden because he was getting attacked by a lot of people. +[3556.14 --> 3560.88] Um, there's, there's so much crap going around that I didn't have enough time to properly say +[3560.88 --> 3563.48] this is how it is before we did the show. +[3563.62 --> 3564.62] So what do you guys think? +[3564.78 --> 3565.86] Yeah, let us know. +[3566.40 --> 3568.00] Uh, Twitter Blitz, guys. +[3568.68 --> 3569.94] At Linus Tech on Twitter. +[3569.94 --> 3571.80] What's your theory? +[3571.92 --> 3574.28] And we'll try to go through quite a few tweets on this. +[3574.34 --> 3580.84] I mean, one comment that I have for both John, TotalBiscuit, Bane, and for, uh, Don Nguyen +[3580.84 --> 3586.16] here, or Don Nguyen here, is like, people say stuff on the internet. +[3588.08 --> 3589.12] There's, there's different... +[3589.12 --> 3590.54] You can't, you can't get... +[3590.54 --> 3593.34] I mean, did you ever read early comments on my videos? +[3593.34 --> 3596.36] Yeah, and I've read early comments about myself. +[3596.56 --> 3598.20] And I've read current comments about myself. +[3598.46 --> 3601.94] I mean, you can't take that stuff seriously. +[3602.20 --> 3607.66] And like, one thing, one thing that you have to do, um, is like, just try to focus on the +[3607.66 --> 3608.24] positive ones. +[3608.60 --> 3608.92] Absolutely. +[3609.26 --> 3610.24] Or the neutral ones. +[3610.34 --> 3612.90] Neutral ones, honestly, you can often get a lot of information from. +[3612.98 --> 3613.86] You know how... +[3613.86 --> 3618.30] Okay, I don't know if you've noticed this, but how many negative comments are there on +[3618.30 --> 3618.78] my videos? +[3619.66 --> 3620.14] Right now? +[3620.28 --> 3620.46] Yeah. +[3620.66 --> 3621.70] Not at times, I'll be honest. +[3621.88 --> 3622.74] Almost nothing. +[3622.92 --> 3623.90] You want to know why? +[3623.90 --> 3626.76] Not because I fought with them. +[3627.10 --> 3631.96] Not because I made public statements about how much they're bothering me. +[3632.32 --> 3634.04] Because I just ignored them. +[3634.20 --> 3635.40] Because I don't care. +[3636.88 --> 3638.26] That's all there is to it. +[3638.66 --> 3645.34] How to make negative comments about your work go away is find the people who are saying something +[3645.34 --> 3648.96] positive and thank them for saying something positive. +[3648.96 --> 3657.08] Positive reinforcement will always, always work better on people than negative reinforcement +[3657.08 --> 3658.66] and arguing with people. +[3658.96 --> 3664.30] Why would you argue with someone who doesn't like what you're doing and doesn't like you? +[3664.60 --> 3666.58] Are you going to hope to impress them? +[3667.46 --> 3668.62] With your anger? +[3669.32 --> 3670.22] With your arguing? +[3670.56 --> 3670.96] With your... +[3670.96 --> 3671.56] With your... +[3671.56 --> 3676.58] I mean, in the case of someone like John, like Total Biscuit, with your formidable and +[3676.58 --> 3678.58] articulate, excellent arguing. +[3679.36 --> 3681.84] And probably correct arguing. +[3682.86 --> 3685.42] But, I mean, it's arguing on the internet. +[3686.26 --> 3687.40] No one wins. +[3687.60 --> 3688.24] You just... +[3688.24 --> 3689.36] Everyone's just angry. +[3689.60 --> 3690.48] It can get to... +[3690.48 --> 3691.80] Like, it can get to people. +[3691.92 --> 3698.46] And that's part of John's thing is he's saying it's like the volume is it's just so much. +[3698.98 --> 3700.38] There's so much of it. +[3700.38 --> 3704.90] And, like, he didn't mind when the subreddit was fairly small because there was some negativity. +[3705.16 --> 3707.26] But it wasn't just, like, overwhelming waves of it. +[3707.26 --> 3709.94] And he just can't deal with it because of the volume. +[3710.14 --> 3713.00] I find Reddit a pretty negative community in general. +[3713.18 --> 3714.78] I mean, don't take this the wrong way, guys. +[3714.88 --> 3716.60] But the whole... +[3716.60 --> 3724.70] I mean, the internet culture of glomming onto things that are funny or stupid or that you +[3724.70 --> 3730.62] don't like and making that as public as possible definitely exists. +[3730.62 --> 3740.44] And Reddit, with its up and down voting, is one of the communities that really does it very effectively. +[3741.28 --> 3748.92] Finding things that they really like and bringing it to everyone's attention and finding things that they really hate and bringing that to everyone's attention. +[3748.92 --> 3750.56] I mean, it's part of the structure of the website. +[3750.70 --> 3752.38] And I'm not criticizing that. +[3752.44 --> 3753.54] I'm not saying it's wrong. +[3753.80 --> 3756.92] I'm just saying that it would be... +[3757.86 --> 3764.52] I think it fosters a culture that might either cause people to be, you know, lifted up. +[3764.76 --> 3766.60] I mean, in ways that Gabe N gets. +[3766.70 --> 3771.12] I mean, I'm pretty tongue-in-cheek about the whole Lord and Savior Gabe N thing. +[3771.12 --> 3777.46] But, you know, when something gets joked about long enough, I think people do start to take it a little bit seriously. +[3777.94 --> 3785.12] And then at the other end of the spectrum, you take something like Flappy Birds or you take something like a controversial thing that TotalBiscuit said, +[3785.20 --> 3787.42] which happens every once in a blue moon. +[3787.74 --> 3788.90] He'll say something controversial. +[3789.38 --> 3796.58] And I think that it can create that sort of overwhelming wave of negativity in the same way that it can create an overwhelming wave of positivity. +[3796.74 --> 3798.24] And there's really no middle ground on Reddit. +[3798.24 --> 3803.42] Because anything on Reddit that's at the top that's going to be seen is either really positive or really negative. +[3803.70 --> 3806.78] And that, I think, is the reason that I don't really hang out there. +[3806.82 --> 3808.16] I have a subreddit, I think. +[3808.24 --> 3809.46] Someone created it or something. +[3809.74 --> 3816.48] But I don't go there because it's not something that I don't personally prefer that approach. +[3816.70 --> 3818.64] We have our own website. +[3819.24 --> 3821.00] So, you know, if people want to talk to us. +[3821.26 --> 3823.74] Like, I've had people ask me if I'll do an AMA on Reddit. +[3823.84 --> 3824.38] I'm like, no. +[3825.04 --> 3825.84] Come on our forum. +[3825.96 --> 3826.92] Ask me a friggin' question. +[3826.92 --> 3827.50] Do you want to do one? +[3827.50 --> 3828.56] I read our forum every day. +[3829.00 --> 3832.82] No, I did it as an advertisement for the live stream the first time I did one. +[3833.00 --> 3838.24] And then I answered the questions on the live stream, which I didn't realize at the time is not how you're supposed to do an AMA. +[3838.78 --> 3838.94] Yeah. +[3839.04 --> 3841.36] So I posted one and people asked me questions. +[3841.42 --> 3843.00] And I did answer them, but I didn't really do it right. +[3843.24 --> 3843.42] Oh. +[3843.64 --> 3847.76] So anyway, Linus Tech Tips Forum is the place to post stuff if you have questions for me. +[3847.76 --> 3849.42] That actually reminded me about another thing. +[3849.74 --> 3850.04] Probably. +[3850.04 --> 3852.66] People were saying that Flappy Birds might have blown up because of Reddit. +[3853.26 --> 3856.84] There's even things that I found that I don't remember because there's way too many. +[3857.44 --> 3858.22] So, yeah. +[3858.50 --> 3859.12] Theories away. +[3859.32 --> 3860.80] And Reddit has that power. +[3860.94 --> 3862.28] They can make things blow up. +[3863.00 --> 3864.68] They're sort of like terrorists that way. +[3864.68 --> 3868.82] And everyone hated Linus. +[3869.10 --> 3872.70] And there was like, Linus in his video says Reddit is terrorist. +[3872.86 --> 3873.76] And I'll vote, I'll vote, I'll vote. +[3873.86 --> 3874.92] Oh, this guy's terrible. +[3876.54 --> 3877.60] Don't take on Reddit. +[3878.06 --> 3878.68] It's a mistake. +[3879.20 --> 3879.48] All right. +[3879.54 --> 3882.56] Rob says, I thought he was concerned that people were playing it too much. +[3883.38 --> 3886.84] See, but then, like, and that's, yeah, I saw that. +[3886.92 --> 3887.84] I think at least once. +[3888.08 --> 3890.16] Dong giveth dong staketh away. +[3890.16 --> 3895.00] Ah, why you be so stupid, Chrome? +[3895.72 --> 3896.62] I'll go on this side. +[3896.88 --> 3897.08] Okay. +[3897.68 --> 3898.50] Steam sales. +[3898.72 --> 3899.00] Okay. +[3899.44 --> 3901.56] I think this guy with the Flappy Birds knows what he was doing. +[3901.64 --> 3903.20] He will make even more money from the publicity. +[3903.78 --> 3906.24] It's hard to make money off of it when you're not selling it anymore. +[3906.32 --> 3909.98] He has other games in the store that have risen in popularity due to the Flappy Birds thing. +[3910.22 --> 3910.48] All right. +[3910.78 --> 3912.68] I don't think he wanted to deal with the comments. +[3912.80 --> 3915.68] Not everyone can take that in stride like Total Biscuit or you. +[3916.18 --> 3916.38] Okay. +[3916.46 --> 3917.34] That's fair enough. +[3917.62 --> 3918.32] That's fair enough. +[3918.32 --> 3924.74] I mean, no one wants to hear this, but I would make the argument the Internet is always going +[3924.74 --> 3926.30] to bring out anonymity. +[3926.40 --> 3930.42] I think brings out the worst in people and sometimes the best in people. +[3930.90 --> 3936.46] But often the way that we see it manifest on the Internet is bringing out the worst in people. +[3936.84 --> 3940.90] And people will say things to you on the Internet that they would never say to you in person. +[3940.90 --> 3942.52] I've actually met. +[3942.60 --> 3944.22] I don't know if I told you this. +[3944.58 --> 3949.42] I had the privilege of meeting one of my Internet haters in person. +[3950.36 --> 3951.42] Super charming guy. +[3952.02 --> 3952.92] We had lunch. +[3954.92 --> 3956.48] I think I remember this. +[3956.48 --> 3966.62] And it really drove home the point to me that what people say and what they do on the Internet is not necessarily even the real person. +[3967.28 --> 3981.98] And that was actually a bit of a turning point for me because I decided to stop judging and stop fighting with the things that people said on the Internet because I started to see them not as the real people but as their personas. +[3981.98 --> 3988.90] In much the same way that my video personality is not 100% of exactly who I am. +[3988.96 --> 3990.40] I mean, I think I'm fairly genuine. +[3991.40 --> 3993.24] And, you know, it's not necessarily even intentional. +[3993.50 --> 4000.50] But when you're talking to a camera, that's not the same way that you, like, you know, sit back and hang out with your friends. +[4000.64 --> 4004.20] You have to project energy and then that changes you at least to a certain degree. +[4004.32 --> 4004.76] Exactly. +[4005.06 --> 4008.22] And on the Internet, people are interacting with people in different ways. +[4009.76 --> 4010.30] All right. +[4010.30 --> 4013.22] So, okay. +[4013.40 --> 4018.14] Someone says, Fabio says when he was also living in a country where $600 a month is a lot. +[4018.24 --> 4020.86] So when he got $50,000 a day, it got suspicious. +[4021.02 --> 4025.38] I don't think that's a big deal, though, because it's not like he's going to have a hard time proving that the money is legitimate. +[4026.30 --> 4028.40] Matthew says, I actually believe him. +[4028.56 --> 4033.24] When getting thrusted into the spotlight, even the most popular, okay, I think that was a typo. +[4033.54 --> 4035.46] But some people can collapse under the pressure. +[4035.56 --> 4036.46] And that's true. +[4036.46 --> 4050.34] Going from zero to hero overnight can be, in this case, I'm with Dong, even though I don't necessarily think that people who have gotten Internet famous more gradually can complain. +[4050.48 --> 4051.78] But I'm with Dong on this one. +[4051.78 --> 4056.50] Because for me, it was very jarring the first time I got recognized at the mall. +[4057.00 --> 4060.00] Like, it was – it completely threw me off. +[4060.38 --> 4062.30] And that happened very gradually. +[4062.30 --> 4069.00] Like, people kind of knew who I was online, and then they, you know, recognized me in person from time to time. +[4069.12 --> 4072.74] Or they'd email me, and then I got recognized in person from time to time. +[4072.98 --> 4078.10] Then I'd go places like tech trade shows, like CES, or like NCIX store grand openings. +[4078.58 --> 4082.10] And, you know, one in every five or ten people knows who I am. +[4082.12 --> 4084.40] And I got to adjust to that over time. +[4084.72 --> 4088.18] Whereas from zero to, holy crap, you're Internet famous? +[4088.36 --> 4089.40] Okay, I'll buy that. +[4089.40 --> 4093.50] Um, Zaki says, I think he just took it too serious. +[4093.82 --> 4095.26] Or take it so serious. +[4095.44 --> 4096.38] I'm enjoying the game. +[4096.42 --> 4096.92] It's fun. +[4097.00 --> 4098.06] And, yeah, sometimes it's stressful. +[4098.16 --> 4099.04] Overall, it's a fun game. +[4099.18 --> 4099.40] Okay. +[4099.94 --> 4103.44] I hope for the next WAN show you show off a Flappy Space Program. +[4104.62 --> 4105.94] Oh, you've got to be kidding me. +[4106.00 --> 4107.06] Okay, I'm afraid to click on that. +[4107.06 --> 4109.18] Everyone's making Flappy everything right now. +[4109.18 --> 4109.30] Okay. +[4109.96 --> 4113.14] Flappy Birds after being – had the ads changed days later. +[4113.52 --> 4113.84] Okay. +[4113.84 --> 4117.14] I think he just pulled it down because he wanted to stop hearing about the negativity. +[4117.14 --> 4120.26] I like that he took it down, but people found a loophole to getting him. +[4120.32 --> 4120.82] Of course they did. +[4120.82 --> 4122.34] Yeah, it's parted like crazy already. +[4122.52 --> 4122.70] Yep. +[4123.36 --> 4127.18] Someone says, I think he just misinterpreted some of the comments and that it was stupid +[4127.18 --> 4128.22] anyway, says Nick. +[4128.82 --> 4131.02] Girls started calling him the Flappy Bird guy. +[4131.30 --> 4133.58] I would take it down too if that happened to me. +[4133.90 --> 4134.44] Would you? +[4134.70 --> 4136.02] For 50 grand a day. +[4136.04 --> 4137.56] For 50 grand a day. +[4137.70 --> 4138.78] You're making like – +[4138.78 --> 4143.32] And girls call you the Flappy Bird guy and know you're making 50 grand a day. +[4145.02 --> 4147.20] And you can drive up to them in your car. +[4147.34 --> 4147.94] I'd be like – +[4147.94 --> 4150.86] I'd have sunglasses with Flappy Bird on either side of them. +[4150.90 --> 4151.60] And I'd be like – +[4151.60 --> 4152.02] Sup. +[4152.22 --> 4152.82] Sup, ladies. +[4152.90 --> 4153.94] I'm the Flappy Bird guy. +[4155.28 --> 4156.48] Not everyone's like that. +[4156.88 --> 4157.84] Can you beat my high score? +[4158.84 --> 4160.48] I got 44. +[4160.48 --> 4160.60] I got 44. +[4160.60 --> 4167.94] Okay, I think we need to not go down that path. +[4168.40 --> 4171.20] Couldn't handle the pressure of knowing how many Flappy Birds had died. +[4171.22 --> 4172.22] Can you handle the pressure? +[4172.38 --> 4173.96] Maybe part of a government conspiracy. +[4174.42 --> 4175.52] I just didn't like money. +[4175.76 --> 4176.98] I kind of doubt that one. +[4177.62 --> 4182.66] I would ignore every single comment and keep filling my pockets with fat stacks, yo, says +[4182.66 --> 4183.06] Ali. +[4183.06 --> 4185.58] I actually think there's a lot of people that would have just been like, +[4185.70 --> 4185.92] Alright. +[4186.56 --> 4186.94] Done. +[4187.64 --> 4188.04] Sure. +[4188.32 --> 4189.52] Just like disconnected from the internet. +[4189.52 --> 4191.36] And then just let their game rot. +[4191.56 --> 4192.74] That's not a bad strategy. +[4193.08 --> 4195.98] Just like unplug for a couple months. +[4196.12 --> 4197.56] Because the internet has a short – +[4197.56 --> 4199.32] The attention span of the internet – +[4199.32 --> 4200.80] Let's go back to Reddit for a minute – +[4200.80 --> 4206.06] Is about equal to the decay algorithm on Reddit's front page. +[4207.16 --> 4207.60] Yeah. +[4207.76 --> 4210.90] So like if you disconnect for long enough, just – +[4210.90 --> 4211.48] It won't matter. +[4211.88 --> 4212.34] You're fine. +[4212.46 --> 4213.04] Don't worry about it. +[4215.08 --> 4215.52] Alright. +[4216.08 --> 4216.48] Okay. +[4216.62 --> 4217.78] I think that's about it for now. +[4217.84 --> 4219.02] Let's move on to our next topic. +[4219.02 --> 4222.34] Let's make sure we're not missing any of our headline topics before we – +[4222.34 --> 4222.56] Yeah. +[4222.66 --> 4222.90] 290. +[4223.04 --> 4223.46] Oh yeah. +[4224.28 --> 4227.72] 290Xs have gone as high as $900. +[4228.94 --> 4229.48] Which is ridiculous. +[4229.48 --> 4235.54] $350 clear of the original price of the 290X. +[4235.70 --> 4238.24] So this was actually an article posted on Anantek. +[4238.24 --> 4240.88] I like Mac and PC posted it on our forum. +[4241.22 --> 4244.08] So here's a link to the article on Anantek by Ryan Smith. +[4244.64 --> 4247.00] And this is like – it's like hilarious. +[4247.16 --> 4248.08] So there's a couple things here. +[4248.14 --> 4252.82] Number one is the prices have hit $900, which is ridiculous. +[4253.28 --> 4255.34] Number two – oh, they've changed. +[4256.02 --> 4258.38] Oh, oh, I'm at – oh, oh, they changed them. +[4258.38 --> 4261.36] What just happened? +[4261.84 --> 4262.28] Interesting. +[4262.84 --> 4264.78] I wonder if there's an update to the article already. +[4265.90 --> 4266.60] What's this P? +[4268.94 --> 4270.56] It's not on – what? +[4271.10 --> 4272.96] There's also not as many cards as there were. +[4274.02 --> 4274.42] Interesting. +[4274.42 --> 4278.70] $6.99, $7.99 for the liquid cooled one. +[4278.74 --> 4280.30] Okay, well maybe this isn't news anymore. +[4280.38 --> 4281.56] I want to know what this P means. +[4283.18 --> 4286.76] When I did this article like two hours ago, they were there. +[4287.28 --> 4287.54] Huh. +[4288.34 --> 4290.56] All right, well apparently because – okay. +[4290.78 --> 4293.64] So to be clear, guys, okay, so there were a couple of observations from Ryan. +[4293.74 --> 4296.78] Number one was that every single card was $8.99.99, +[4297.02 --> 4301.20] whether it had an air cooler, a reference cooler, a water block. +[4301.32 --> 4302.78] That is not how it was when I looked. +[4302.86 --> 4303.98] And that's not how it was when you looked. +[4303.98 --> 4306.02] So when he looked, that's what it looked like. +[4306.44 --> 4312.92] And then the other interesting observation was that this wasn't happening in other territories. +[4313.74 --> 4317.66] So Ian Cutras, who also works for Anantax, +[4317.74 --> 4320.52] checked out some of his favorite UK retailers, +[4320.96 --> 4324.02] and pricing was only marginally above the North American MSRP, +[4324.02 --> 4329.16] which it usually is because graphics cards tend to be more expensive in Europe. +[4329.80 --> 4333.96] That – I just did an inspect element on that P, and it's a membership icon. +[4333.98 --> 4335.48] Membership icon. +[4335.48 --> 4336.48] Yeah. +[4336.48 --> 4337.66] That's interesting. +[4337.66 --> 4342.06] And if you're clicking on these SKUs, they're just not linked to anything? +[4342.82 --> 4344.80] What is going on on their website? +[4346.20 --> 4347.52] What are they doing? +[4348.00 --> 4349.56] We should call up Paul and be like, +[4350.02 --> 4350.42] Dude. +[4350.52 --> 4351.12] Yo, dog. +[4351.22 --> 4352.12] Oh, this one works. +[4352.18 --> 4352.84] What are you doing? +[4353.04 --> 4353.70] Premier member. +[4354.04 --> 4354.82] Premier member. +[4355.08 --> 4357.16] Does that mean you have to be a Premier member to buy it? +[4357.20 --> 4357.52] Oh, no. +[4357.58 --> 4360.88] It's eligible for free shipping on returns, free three-day shipping. +[4360.96 --> 4361.40] Oh, okay. +[4361.40 --> 4364.76] So it looks like it's kind of like Prime, but Premier, +[4365.02 --> 4369.94] which has the same letters as Prime, but has more letters, and is therefore better. +[4371.12 --> 4371.82] P, R? +[4371.90 --> 4373.64] More letters is more better. +[4374.02 --> 4374.38] All right. +[4374.48 --> 4374.90] I don't know. +[4375.66 --> 4383.24] So, of course, all of this is due to Litecoin and Dogecoin mining and all that kind of stuff, +[4383.30 --> 4386.74] and actually not a whole lot to do with how price performance competitive, +[4386.92 --> 4390.50] something like the R9 290X, happens to be. +[4390.64 --> 4392.54] I really don't know where the end of this is, +[4392.66 --> 4395.22] but it's pretty clear that for gamers right now, +[4395.48 --> 4398.62] even at $700, that's not a competitive card. +[4398.62 --> 4403.12] For gamers right now, the better option is to go for something like a GTX 780 +[4403.12 --> 4408.86] and then get a pretty decent chunk of cash towards a nice CPU to go along with it +[4408.86 --> 4409.76] or a couple of cool games. +[4409.86 --> 4414.04] There was a comparison made by Nantech saying that if you paid that price plus $10, +[4414.22 --> 4417.18] you could get a 780 Ti and an i5 4670K. +[4417.52 --> 4418.18] I compared it. +[4418.18 --> 4420.72] It wasn't exactly $10 as far as I could find, +[4420.98 --> 4423.46] but that was maybe due to Canadian pricing. +[4423.46 --> 4428.84] But for not very much more, you could still get a 780 Ti and a 4670K, +[4428.94 --> 4430.16] talking about like $50, $60. +[4430.72 --> 4435.10] And we consider that you don't need a 780 Ti to perform better than a 290X. +[4435.88 --> 4437.30] There's a cheaper card that does that. +[4437.70 --> 4440.18] It starts to become pretty hard to justify for gamers. +[4440.34 --> 4442.24] And does NVIDIA still have that game bundle running? +[4443.88 --> 4444.52] I bet I don't know. +[4444.54 --> 4444.98] I'm not sure. +[4445.10 --> 4445.44] Sorry, guys. +[4445.46 --> 4446.48] Don't quote me on the game bundle. +[4447.82 --> 4449.92] AMD also has their game bundle running as well. +[4450.12 --> 4452.68] I think they just added, was it Thief to it or something? +[4452.68 --> 4453.58] They added something to it. +[4453.70 --> 4453.86] Yeah. +[4454.10 --> 4456.78] Yeah, I know AMD was doing something with Thief, so that would make sense. +[4457.46 --> 4458.30] All right. +[4459.22 --> 4462.14] I'm not going to get too ranty about this. +[4462.34 --> 4464.22] I just don't have the strength for it. +[4464.84 --> 4465.62] No trouble. +[4465.76 --> 4466.64] Post it on the forum. +[4466.82 --> 4469.18] The original source is theverge.com. +[4469.64 --> 4477.84] Google and Foxconn are going to be working together on a new vision of roboticized factories. +[4477.84 --> 4493.22] So what this will amount to is heavy investment upfront in automated robotic systems replacing low-wage menial jobs like plugging in connect. +[4493.28 --> 4494.92] Actually, I mean, some of this is being done already. +[4494.92 --> 4506.94] So things like plugging in connectors on motherboards or even assembling things like phones and tablets potentially, completely replacing those low-end jobs with machines. +[4507.24 --> 4509.94] This will allow them to do a couple of things. +[4510.32 --> 4512.92] Number one is reduce their labor force. +[4512.92 --> 4522.38] So there was a quote, this was in the Verge article, from someone who worked in a department that used to have 30 people connecting wires to motherboards. +[4522.48 --> 4524.62] Remember, Foxconn assembles a lot of different stuff. +[4524.70 --> 4532.92] Everything from, you know, little tiny, like, phones and stuff all the way up to things like OEM PCs for other Tier 1 PC manufacturers. +[4532.92 --> 4542.50] And they were able to take that team and reduce it from 30 people doing all the stuff to 5 people pretty much pressing buttons and controlling the machines. +[4545.34 --> 4547.88] Okay, so that's effect number one. +[4548.04 --> 4560.48] And then effect number two, the other impact, is that this approach could help move new tech jobs in the manufacturing sector back overseas to North America. +[4560.48 --> 4560.56] Yeah. +[4562.64 --> 4563.04] So. +[4566.18 --> 4569.64] It's not very surprising because of certain acquisitions from Google recently. +[4569.64 --> 4578.22] They bought Boston Dynamics, which makes those crazy robotic running things like Big Dog and things called Wildcat or something along those. +[4578.30 --> 4579.04] Yeah, Wildcat. +[4580.32 --> 4582.92] So they recently acquired a robotics company. +[4583.04 --> 4584.10] They've been looking into AI forever. +[4584.32 --> 4586.66] This just all kind of makes sense. +[4586.66 --> 4594.86] Now, Big Dog isn't exactly manufacturing, but when you acquire something like Boston Dynamics, I'm sure you acquire a lot of extremely skilled engineers. +[4594.86 --> 4603.32] And I'm sure they could take something like that and adapt certain systems, like the articulating arms and stuff, into some type of manufacturing system. +[4603.32 --> 4619.52] Because, I mean, really that's the advantage that humans have over machines is the ability to think and to reason as they do things, as well as to have everything from good coarse motor control to very fine motor control. +[4619.52 --> 4625.02] The ability to diagnose something and look closely at it and carefully while they're assembling something. +[4625.42 --> 4632.38] And between better robotic vision, which is advancing very, very quickly these days, and more. +[4632.52 --> 4633.28] Wow, look at that. +[4633.50 --> 4634.94] I haven't actually watched this video before. +[4635.04 --> 4635.44] That's fantastic. +[4635.44 --> 4636.40] It's a really old video, too. +[4636.52 --> 4637.48] Yeah, this is from 2008. +[4637.72 --> 4637.98] Yeah. +[4637.98 --> 4648.60] And being able to build devices like this that have the grace and reactivity of a human, we don't necessarily need people to put stuff together anymore. +[4648.60 --> 4655.50] And one of the things that they're saying, and this is a quote from the Verges article again. +[4655.62 --> 4657.48] Let me just find the right quote. +[4657.48 --> 4665.66] Is that one of the benefits is that they want to compete better with, hold on, let me see if I can, uh. +[4665.68 --> 4669.90] Are you playing, uh, apparently the sound from that video was terrible. +[4670.30 --> 4671.64] Oh, sorry guys, sorry guys. +[4672.50 --> 4677.48] So this is from another article that, um, is also on the Verge. +[4677.56 --> 4681.98] Foxconn begins replacing workers with robots ahead of U.S. expansion. +[4682.68 --> 4683.88] And this is a quote. +[4683.88 --> 4687.82] We have to begin to add more value in the process. +[4688.02 --> 4692.90] Otherwise it will be difficult to attract a young generation of workers. +[4693.80 --> 4699.88] And that is similar to one of the things that President Obama said was that, he replied, +[4700.22 --> 4704.60] that certain low-skilled jobs are simply not going to come back, +[4704.76 --> 4709.30] and the country should therefore focus on developing more advanced manufacturing. +[4709.30 --> 4713.16] I call BS. +[4714.02 --> 4724.56] How does removing menial jobs make it easier to employ younger people who are unwilling to do those menial jobs? +[4724.98 --> 4728.06] You haven't replaced those jobs with something. +[4728.06 --> 4731.82] I actually didn't see that quote. +[4732.68 --> 4735.30] Um, I, yeah, I don't think they're helping the job market. +[4735.40 --> 4739.62] I think this is inevitable and has been happening throughout the entire history of human existence. +[4739.84 --> 4740.92] Well, yeah, it was bound to happen. +[4741.28 --> 4742.02] Bound to happen. +[4742.12 --> 4742.70] But like. +[4742.70 --> 4748.44] I mean, I personally, just throwing this out there, I think the robotic revolution is going to be on, +[4748.60 --> 4751.70] potentially on the scale of the industrial revolution and mass production. +[4752.46 --> 4753.52] Wondering if it's going to be bigger. +[4753.66 --> 4758.98] In terms of what a difference it'll make to how the labor force gets distributed +[4758.98 --> 4761.44] and how tasks are performed by people. +[4761.44 --> 4764.28] Because we, we're not talking. +[4764.38 --> 4766.36] I mean, the goals here, okay? +[4766.44 --> 4771.50] So the goals of making it more appealing to the younger generation of people +[4771.50 --> 4774.44] or moving manufacturing back to the U.S., +[4774.96 --> 4779.48] neither of those goals are actually going to be creating any additional jobs. +[4779.48 --> 4787.16] And if the cost of the goods goes down proportionally, then fine. +[4787.34 --> 4793.74] But if instead the end objective is to give the executives that came up with the idea +[4793.74 --> 4798.22] of replacing the people with machines with a large upfront investment, +[4798.40 --> 4801.08] but then a very small long-term cost, +[4801.56 --> 4804.14] is if the idea is just to put more money in their pockets, +[4804.70 --> 4806.90] then who's going to buy an iPhone? +[4807.70 --> 4808.84] That's what I worry about. +[4809.48 --> 4811.64] What impact will this have? +[4812.00 --> 4815.46] And how far away are we from the by and large? +[4816.50 --> 4819.58] I mean, maybe Wally is more prophetic than even I thought it was. +[4820.00 --> 4822.22] Yeah, it's actually kind of a really big deal. +[4823.62 --> 4827.62] Because the thing about low-end menial jobs +[4827.62 --> 4831.60] is that not everyone can be an executive. +[4833.90 --> 4835.34] That's just life. +[4835.34 --> 4839.36] There's only so much decision-making to be done +[4839.36 --> 4842.34] before someone has to actually do the work. +[4842.34 --> 4843.76] And at the end of the day, +[4843.88 --> 4847.62] someone has to actually make the sandwich at Subway, +[4848.28 --> 4851.06] or what else will they do? +[4852.06 --> 4855.32] It's becoming interesting because, like in the Wally universe, +[4855.46 --> 4856.94] where everyone just kind of carts around. +[4857.50 --> 4859.44] And doesn't have to pay for anything or do anything. +[4859.70 --> 4861.44] But why is that going to happen? +[4862.62 --> 4864.98] Why would the super-rich allow that to happen? +[4865.10 --> 4866.72] They obviously don't care. +[4868.04 --> 4870.38] They will obviously let you just rot and die. +[4870.38 --> 4874.06] So I think it's going to be Wally, +[4874.50 --> 4877.86] but with a lot less of the everyone gets everything. +[4877.98 --> 4880.02] So maybe Wally is a best-case scenario? +[4881.06 --> 4882.68] Unfortunately, I'm thinking maybe. +[4884.60 --> 4885.40] I don't know. +[4885.56 --> 4888.36] I mean, I went to the drive-thru at Burger King today, +[4888.60 --> 4890.04] or not at Wendy's today. +[4890.92 --> 4893.56] And I was kind of sitting there, +[4893.82 --> 4895.68] and you know how a lot of the drive-thrus +[4895.68 --> 4898.84] have added that voice that says, +[4899.22 --> 4900.42] Hi, welcome to wherever. +[4901.80 --> 4902.68] Can I take your order? +[4903.06 --> 4904.58] And then you say whatever it is, +[4904.68 --> 4905.98] and then a completely different voice +[4905.98 --> 4908.00] of the actual person taking your order comes back. +[4908.76 --> 4910.02] And I was thinking about it +[4910.02 --> 4911.14] as I went through the drive-thru. +[4911.96 --> 4913.98] At some point, 50 years from now, +[4913.98 --> 4915.10] 100 years from now, +[4915.58 --> 4917.90] will there even be a restaurant you can walk into? +[4917.90 --> 4921.44] Or will it be future-style, +[4921.84 --> 4923.36] everyone has to go through the drive-thru, +[4923.62 --> 4925.64] and will that person be completely gone, +[4925.76 --> 4927.82] replaced by smarter Google voice recognition +[4927.82 --> 4929.14] and smart Google robots? +[4929.16 --> 4931.12] I think there will be super expensive restaurants +[4931.12 --> 4932.14] that you can go into. +[4932.24 --> 4935.20] Will you care if a robot makes your food? +[4937.86 --> 4939.68] It depends. +[4940.34 --> 4941.82] What if it does a better job? +[4941.82 --> 4943.50] Because quite frankly, it probably will. +[4943.78 --> 4944.96] Then I probably wouldn't care. +[4944.96 --> 4948.26] What if it's faster and does a better job, +[4948.62 --> 4949.30] and yet... +[4951.00 --> 4952.08] Because like, +[4952.38 --> 4953.74] and people are going to be like, +[4953.80 --> 4955.14] oh, but you're taking jobs away from people. +[4955.62 --> 4956.30] Yeah, but that's... +[4956.86 --> 4959.08] I'm ignoring that part completely. +[4959.46 --> 4961.18] Because it's what I would care about. +[4961.24 --> 4963.20] I would care that that person doesn't have a job. +[4963.66 --> 4966.70] I wouldn't necessarily care that my food was made by a robot, +[4966.82 --> 4970.30] unless it was worse in some possible way. +[4970.30 --> 4973.56] I just wonder what people will do +[4973.56 --> 4975.70] if no one has to make a sandwich, +[4976.20 --> 4977.16] or assemble a phone. +[4977.30 --> 4978.70] Speaking of assembling phones, +[4978.94 --> 4982.18] like, I actually took apart a phone for the first time. +[4982.24 --> 4983.98] Not my one, but my wife's droid DNA. +[4984.54 --> 4987.10] And like, I felt like this kind of gave me +[4987.10 --> 4989.92] a better understanding of the electronics assembly process, +[4989.92 --> 4992.76] because I took the whole thing all completely apart, +[4992.94 --> 4993.90] down to the screen, +[4993.90 --> 4995.86] and then replaced the screen on it, +[4995.88 --> 4997.18] and then put the whole thing back together. +[4997.86 --> 5000.80] And I was kind of sitting there thinking about it today, +[5000.86 --> 5001.88] as I was in the drive-thru, +[5002.06 --> 5003.58] and I was like thinking about this article, +[5004.22 --> 5005.00] and I was like, +[5005.60 --> 5007.48] if a robot could do that, +[5008.20 --> 5009.88] what couldn't it do? +[5011.06 --> 5012.30] It's going to be interesting. +[5012.80 --> 5014.98] There's a forum on the internet +[5014.98 --> 5016.94] that I frequent +[5016.94 --> 5019.02] that talks about like futurology and stuff, +[5019.16 --> 5020.70] like what is actually going to happen. +[5020.70 --> 5023.16] And the future of the 60s +[5023.16 --> 5025.92] was all this awesome stuff, +[5026.34 --> 5027.14] all this automation +[5027.14 --> 5028.40] that we're starting to see and stuff, +[5028.48 --> 5030.84] but then no one thought about the ramifications, +[5031.62 --> 5034.52] the fact that no one will have a job at some point. +[5035.40 --> 5036.06] And then it's like, +[5036.26 --> 5039.70] who's going to make the Uber rich, +[5039.76 --> 5040.44] the 1%, whatever, +[5040.90 --> 5042.74] pay the people that aren't doing anything, +[5043.28 --> 5044.70] because there's nothing for them to do. +[5045.40 --> 5047.34] And like, not everyone can be a lawyer. +[5047.56 --> 5049.88] And I don't mean this in the sense of like, +[5049.88 --> 5052.34] you know, the gods and clods talk +[5052.34 --> 5054.40] that Kyle's dad gives them on South Park. +[5054.68 --> 5057.56] I mean, not everyone is cut out to be a lawyer. +[5057.98 --> 5059.64] I personally couldn't handle it. +[5059.82 --> 5060.30] There you go. +[5060.70 --> 5061.40] Up front. +[5061.76 --> 5063.54] I am not one of those, +[5063.80 --> 5065.60] you know, elite upper tier, +[5065.92 --> 5067.72] like memory and, +[5068.46 --> 5070.70] you know, elite upper tier of, +[5070.78 --> 5072.64] you know, arguing with people. +[5072.80 --> 5074.68] And like, I'm just not cut out for that. +[5074.90 --> 5076.42] Not everyone can do every job. +[5076.42 --> 5079.46] And if you take away an entire segment of what people do, +[5079.66 --> 5081.34] I just don't know what they'll do. +[5081.42 --> 5081.74] And I mean, +[5082.10 --> 5085.68] you look at some of the new jobs that are emerging, +[5085.82 --> 5087.14] things like being game streamers. +[5087.18 --> 5088.34] You guys are on Twitch TV. +[5088.48 --> 5089.32] You're aware of this. +[5089.66 --> 5090.14] Game streaming. +[5090.38 --> 5094.86] Is that something that anyone is going to be willing to pay for? +[5095.02 --> 5099.94] An entire generation of people whose jobs it is to entertain each other. +[5099.94 --> 5103.66] If there's, yeah, that's, that's actually, +[5103.82 --> 5105.60] Could we sustain ourselves that way? +[5105.62 --> 5107.46] Well, if you look into the past, +[5107.56 --> 5109.48] entertainment has exploded, exploded. +[5109.70 --> 5109.88] Yes. +[5109.88 --> 5110.10] Completely. +[5110.28 --> 5111.28] It's getting bigger and bigger and bigger. +[5111.32 --> 5112.44] And there's more and more and more jobs +[5112.44 --> 5113.82] because there isn't other stuff to do. +[5113.88 --> 5114.86] So it does kind of make sense. +[5114.92 --> 5116.60] But then that's the same thing as the lawyer. +[5117.32 --> 5118.78] Not everyone can be an entertainer. +[5119.30 --> 5120.24] Not everyone can be a lawyer. +[5120.24 --> 5122.50] Not everyone can be a lumberjack +[5122.50 --> 5123.86] because that's incredibly hard. +[5124.16 --> 5126.10] Not everyone can do all these different things. +[5126.32 --> 5127.14] I know my wood's hard. +[5127.14 --> 5131.34] Yeah, I don't know. +[5131.74 --> 5132.24] It's interesting. +[5132.42 --> 5135.14] I hope that it's taken care of. +[5136.00 --> 5138.02] But who knows? +[5138.10 --> 5141.16] I don't think we're in a position to influence it one way or the other. +[5141.30 --> 5142.38] We just have our little show. +[5142.64 --> 5143.48] We'll be entertainers. +[5143.68 --> 5144.38] We'll try. +[5144.56 --> 5146.62] Thank you guys for letting us be entertainers. +[5146.76 --> 5147.14] Please. +[5147.46 --> 5149.20] Please let us keep being entertainers. +[5149.66 --> 5151.80] Speaking of which, you can support us on the forum. +[5152.50 --> 5154.26] We have paid memberships now. +[5154.88 --> 5156.52] Please take your sandwich money. +[5156.52 --> 5159.40] And, well, no, not your sandwich money. +[5159.52 --> 5164.02] I don't want the people who might not be making sandwiches anymore to give us their money. +[5164.24 --> 5165.96] See, I don't know how to feel about this. +[5166.02 --> 5167.02] Like, I feel terrible. +[5167.64 --> 5173.06] About, like, I actually feel guilty that my job is somewhat safe, at least for now. +[5173.40 --> 5173.62] Maybe. +[5174.30 --> 5175.72] You know, maybe it isn't. +[5176.16 --> 5176.52] What if... +[5176.52 --> 5178.98] They've talked about the holographic actors thing. +[5179.02 --> 5179.32] Exactly. +[5179.46 --> 5180.92] They might not need actors for movies anymore. +[5181.08 --> 5184.02] So that'll be really expensive for a while. +[5184.02 --> 5193.32] And even if you don't need actors, you will still need people for extremely time-sensitive stuff for probably quite some time. +[5193.32 --> 5205.26] But when real-time rendering engines and, you know, mouth and facial synchronization with a voiceover comes to be, will we need me anymore? +[5205.66 --> 5210.84] Can we just have really nice B-roll of a product which can be produced by a robot? +[5211.38 --> 5214.32] And it could do better shots than poor Brandon could ever do. +[5214.32 --> 5215.38] Because it's a robot. +[5215.48 --> 5216.34] Because it's a robot. +[5216.76 --> 5218.28] Will we just have really nice B-roll? +[5218.40 --> 5222.78] And then will we have a digitally rendered guy that sits and tells you all the key points about it? +[5222.88 --> 5224.28] And will we need me anymore? +[5224.58 --> 5226.08] And how far away are we from that? +[5226.36 --> 5227.68] Probably not that far. +[5227.82 --> 5228.50] Isn't that terrifying? +[5228.62 --> 5229.42] So... +[5229.42 --> 5231.28] Okay, maybe we do want the sandwich money. +[5233.20 --> 5240.88] Anyway, guys, if you go to the Linus Tech Tips Forum and you click on the, if you love us, click to see our affiliates and support us. +[5240.92 --> 5242.58] We do have all the

we'll appreciate it very much if you do. +[5276.66 --> 5281.04] Which leads us to our last topic, which is the Titanfall Beta. +[5281.36 --> 5282.22] I didn't get a code. +[5282.28 --> 5282.68] Did you get one? +[5282.80 --> 5283.14] I did. +[5283.56 --> 5284.50] You bastard. +[5284.50 --> 5290.22] Apparently, and this was posted by Chris LX Cross on the forum. +[5290.40 --> 5295.34] If you contact EA Support and tell them the code you received didn't work, they will add access to your account. +[5295.78 --> 5298.82] He posted a chat log of it working. +[5299.28 --> 5301.52] And there it is, Titanfall, right there. +[5301.64 --> 5306.20] I'm hearing mixed reports with some people saying it is balls to the walls amazing. +[5306.64 --> 5308.78] And some people saying it sucks. +[5308.78 --> 5313.64] And then some people saying it's overrated, which it probably would have to be given how hyped it was. +[5313.90 --> 5316.54] Yeah, it's a big change, though. +[5317.04 --> 5322.02] That's the whole kind of idea, is that we're moving away from Modern Warfare 4 for the first time in a while. +[5322.78 --> 5323.68] Holy crap. +[5324.34 --> 5325.44] Something is different. +[5325.78 --> 5326.86] They have jetpacks. +[5327.02 --> 5328.90] They have these giant robot things. +[5329.22 --> 5333.26] There's different areas where the pilots can run around and the robots can't get them. +[5333.26 --> 5340.64] The levels are much more vertical, because if you go really high with a jetpack and land on top of one of the robots, you can start ripping them apart. +[5341.12 --> 5342.76] There's much more different things. +[5342.76 --> 5343.82] Someone says Cod with mechs. +[5344.30 --> 5345.34] Yeah, essentially. +[5345.58 --> 5346.78] But it didn't have mechs before. +[5347.72 --> 5348.64] So now it does. +[5348.76 --> 5349.72] And it has jetpacks. +[5349.98 --> 5351.38] And it has all this other crap. +[5351.56 --> 5355.20] So we'll see if it's worth anything at all soon, I guess. +[5356.58 --> 5358.96] I'll try to stream it at some point in time this weekend. +[5358.96 --> 5363.10] I will not be streaming tonight unless it is extremely, extremely late. +[5363.48 --> 5365.08] Yeah, it's Valentine's Day, guys. +[5365.22 --> 5367.76] So tell me. +[5368.08 --> 5368.38] Nope. +[5368.76 --> 5369.40] You got a date? +[5373.36 --> 5377.32] And I don't think it's under NDA, because I have seen a lot of people streaming it on Twitch. +[5377.34 --> 5377.92] I know it's not under NDA. +[5378.00 --> 5379.88] You can't have a non-disclosure agreement for a date. +[5381.26 --> 5382.66] Unlike Elder Scrolls Online. +[5382.74 --> 5385.84] Is this anything to do with that hickey you had on the show a couple months ago? +[5386.04 --> 5386.72] No, actually. +[5387.76 --> 5388.50] Ooh, that's awkward. +[5388.96 --> 5390.96] Thanks. +[5397.64 --> 5398.22] Oh, no. +[5398.22 --> 5399.44] I think we're done here. +[5402.48 --> 5403.46] Oh, okay. +[5403.60 --> 5404.30] One more thing. +[5404.50 --> 5406.04] Speaking of depressing. +[5407.40 --> 5412.92] Microsoft's head of PC gaming, posted by Biebskadoo on the forum, calls it quits after only six months. +[5412.92 --> 5418.44] It's ex-Valve employee Jason Holtman was recruited to spearhead their PC gaming and entertainment division. +[5418.86 --> 5420.76] Now he is gone. +[5420.76 --> 5426.96] There was a bunch of talk at the time about how Microsoft was serious about PC gaming again, and we haven't given up on you guys. +[5427.04 --> 5429.24] And since then, the X-Bone has been released. +[5429.24 --> 5432.74] We have no compatibility on the PC for this controller. +[5432.74 --> 5438.38] They're throwing proprietary dongles at us in order to use our gaming headsets. +[5438.38 --> 5441.78] And they are just basically acting unfriendlier than ever. +[5442.06 --> 5443.26] Thank you very much, Microsoft. +[5443.60 --> 5448.60] To me, it is no amazing coincidence that Mr. Holtman decided to leave. +[5448.60 --> 5452.06] So, thank you very guys much for watching the show today. +[5452.38 --> 5457.68] I really do appreciate you taking the time out of your busy lives on a Valentine's Day no less. +[5457.86 --> 5463.04] I'm glad the Titanfall servers were down, because if it wasn't for that, I'm willing to bet a lot fewer of you would be here. +[5463.94 --> 5465.86] No, I will give you the benefit of the doubt. +[5466.08 --> 5468.22] You would have been here watching this show anyway, right? +[5468.66 --> 5469.92] At least on a secondary monitor. +[5470.06 --> 5472.42] At least on a second monitor, or like on a phone or something. +[5472.58 --> 5473.92] Or in the background or on a tablet. +[5473.92 --> 5477.22] You would have had it on on your TV that's behind you that you can't see. +[5478.22 --> 5482.40] And you would have been wearing open headphones so you can hear us in addition to the game sounds. +[5482.50 --> 5482.94] There you go. +[5484.36 --> 5485.06] Peace out, guys. +[5503.92 --> 5533.90] Peace out, guys. diff --git a/The WAN Show R9 295 X2 Rumours, Windows 8.1 Getting BETTER - April 4th, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show R9 295 X2

those of you who are just joining us now, we're live. +[7.00 --> 12.00] Those of you who were here before, well, we're live, but the show is kind of starting over. +[12.00 --> 19.00] So just bear with us for a couple minutes here while we go through our headline topics for the day and all of that other good stuff. +[19.00 --> 24.00] So Yahoo is allegedly making their own YouTube, something that we kind of talked about mostly already, +[24.00 --> 27.00] so we're not going to get into too much depth with it. +[27.00 --> 31.00] The R9 295, allegedly rumored, has been leaked. +[31.00 --> 35.00] That is AMD's upcoming dual GPU graphics card, allegedly. +[35.00 --> 36.00] Allegedly. +[36.00 --> 37.00] Allegedly. +[37.00 --> 40.00] We've also got some other interesting stuff this week. +[40.00 --> 46.00] So Mozilla's CEO has resigned over an anti-gay marriage controversy, +[46.00 --> 52.00] something that I would like for us to try to take a balanced approach to rather than take one side or the other. +[52.00 --> 55.00] It's definitely something that's a hot topic right now. +[55.00 --> 59.00] There's about a 13-page thread on the Linus Tech Tips forum about it. +[59.00 --> 64.00] And then something I really wanted to talk about, it's just an observation of mine, +[64.00 --> 69.00] is whether or not the gaming laptop is dead as a product category. +[69.00 --> 74.00] So without further ado, let's go ahead and get a quick, you know, intro going on here. +[74.00 --> 92.00] The show today is brought to you by Intel, actually Corsair as well, who are both sponsoring us to go to PAX, +[92.00 --> 93.00] East. +[93.00 --> 98.00] More on that later, as well as Squarespace.com, the fast, easy, inexpensive, and scalable. +[98.00 --> 100.00] How many words can I use to describe Squarespace? +[100.00 --> 102.00] Way to set up your own beautiful website. +[102.00 --> 104.00] Visit Squarespace.com slash Linus to learn more and to get a discount. +[104.00 --> 105.00] More on that later as well. +[105.00 --> 106.00] So let's jump into our first topic. +[106.00 --> 110.00] And we're going to blitz through this one pretty quick, since some of you have probably already seen it. +[110.00 --> 112.00] And that is that Yahoo is rumoured to be working on their own YouTube. +[120.00 --> 130.00] Although, they are a lot different for together with YouTube, it's like even more casual than your YouTube. +[130.00 --> 133.00] I mean, it's really not different than our YouTube. +[133.00 --> 136.00] παytyy alpha comma, which means a girlfriend nerd reflected by the YouTube. +[136.00 --> 139.78] A +[139.78 --> 145.80] than YouTube. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just going to go watch on YeahTube. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Anyway, +[146.24 --> 152.20] I think either the Nordics or the, you know, who else would like it? Maybe the Jamaicans would +[152.20 --> 158.32] like it. It's like targeted at these particular regions. It's like, we're going to go after the +[158.32 --> 164.70] Jamaican and Nordic market. It's brilliant. Genius. Absolutely genius. So the rumor, +[164.86 --> 169.34] the word on the street and the original article that, oh, this was posted on the forum by +[169.34 --> 178.62] Oh No Tech. And so the article that we were looking at from Guardian LV is, says that Yahoo's CEO, +[179.22 --> 184.66] Marissa Mayer, allegedly has been contacting YouTube content providers, star talents, and network +[184.66 --> 190.00] channels with the promise of more money if they switch to the Yahoo service. Mind you, to me, +[190.08 --> 194.66] the big challenge is, of course, the chicken and egg. You can't have an audience without content +[194.66 --> 200.70] creators. You can't incentivize content creators unless you have a ginormous audience that you can +[200.70 --> 207.70] drive traffic to their content with. And I don't know if their approach of going after the premium +[207.70 --> 214.26] content creators is necessarily right, because that's part of what made YouTube so big and so hard +[214.26 --> 218.28] to beat by competing. Well, I mean, Vimeo doesn't even really try to compete with them, but that's what +[218.28 --> 225.04] makes them so hard to surpass in terms of size by other video sharing services is the fact that they +[225.04 --> 229.68] have this enormous mainstream appeal. So you could take all the music videos, all the vivos of the +[229.68 --> 235.64] world, and move them over to Yahoo, but then you've just basically turned yourself into a video streaming +[235.64 --> 241.50] service unless you also have that community. And if you create a community interaction model, +[241.68 --> 245.34] then it might go all Google Plus on you and blow up in your face anyway. +[245.34 --> 250.12] And like if they try to buy people out and make it so they can't post on YouTube, that would bring +[250.12 --> 253.72] content over that you'd want to watch there, but then that's really aggressive and is going to create +[253.72 --> 259.02] some really awkward situations. And if you don't do that, people are just probably going to want to +[259.02 --> 264.28] watch it on YouTube instead of Yatube anyways. So, I mean, from my perspective, actually, this is +[264.28 --> 270.94] something I didn't cover before. So as a content creator, what does Yahoo have to overcome to appeal to +[270.94 --> 274.80] me? Let's move the mic a little bit closer here. I see a couple people saying the audio is a bit low. +[275.34 --> 283.84] It's not adjustable right now. That probably sounded great. Whatever. Okay. So what do they have to overcome? +[283.84 --> 291.44] Number one is that even though YouTube takes 45% right off the top of the advertising revenue +[291.44 --> 297.36] that's generated by something like a TrueView in-stream ad before a video plays, what YouTube +[297.36 --> 308.86] is able to do is probably about, I'd say double to triple my overall viewership by driving new viewers to old videos. +[308.86 --> 326.36] So when you look at a new video that we upload within the first, let's say, week, that's probably, unless it's something that really has legs in the long term, something like our Xbox 3, our Xbox One versus PS4 image quality comparison, unless it's something people are really going to be looking for in the longer term, +[326.36 --> 344.36] longer term, that's about 90% of what that video is ever going to get in terms of views. What YouTube does is it takes that video and drives people to it in the background compared to, you know, just us blasting it out to our subscribers. +[344.36 --> 348.36] Now YouTube makes a lot of mistakes. They don't send our videos to all of our subscribers. +[348.36 --> 349.36] Yeah. +[349.36 --> 368.36] Like there's a lot of stuff wrong with the YouTube model, but they kind of make up for it by keeping our content as prolific as possible and spreading it out so that even older content that we're not focused on anymore is still maybe making us two cents that day from the 40 people who watched it. +[368.36 --> 369.36] Which can add up. +[369.36 --> 391.36] Which adds up when you have 2,000 videos uploaded to the platform. So if Yahoo's approach is going to be trying to get exclusivity deals with premium content creators without necessarily a plan for having that huge mass of viewers, like on YouTube, I'm going to go find something that's like an ancient motherboard unboxing or something. +[391.36 --> 404.36] YouTube has so much reach that even super old videos that even super old videos can generate revenue for you. +[404.36 --> 406.36] So I guess that was another point. +[406.36 --> 414.36] You know what's interesting is I've been subscribed to our own channel on my private YouTube just so I know what we're releasing because a lot of times I just don't. +[414.36 --> 421.36] I'll film or work on something and then finish it and then it's like, oh, alright, we'll see when that comes out I guess. +[421.36 --> 433.36] So I've subscribed to our own channel so I know what's even going on because people will talk to me about things that have released and they'll be like, in your most recent video, blah, blah, blah, and I'll be like, I have no idea what you're talking about. +[433.36 --> 437.36] So yeah, subscribe to our own channel. The only thing that I get in my subscription feed is the WAN show. +[437.36 --> 438.36] Right. +[438.36 --> 442.36] I don't get anything else. I have to go to the channel directly to get anything else in my subscription feed. +[442.36 --> 447.36] So on the flip side, here's a motherboard unboxing from August 2011. Here, actually I can screen share here. +[447.36 --> 455.36] From August 2011 that has got a couple views, you know, let's say one view per day over the last month. +[455.36 --> 462.36] Like, how, how is that even possible? Does anyone care about the Sniper 2 Z68 board? +[462.36 --> 469.36] So without having that mainstream appeal, YahooTube may suffer. +[469.36 --> 470.36] Yahoo. +[470.36 --> 471.36] Yahoo. +[471.36 --> 472.36] Yahoo. +[472.36 --> 473.36] Yahoo. +[473.36 --> 474.36] Yahoo. +[474.36 --> 475.36] If they call it Yahoo, we want to cut. +[475.36 --> 476.36] Yahoo. +[476.36 --> 477.36] We want to cut. +[477.36 --> 478.36] 10% cut. That's the Linus Media Group cut. +[478.36 --> 479.36] That's the Linus Media Group cut. +[479.36 --> 480.36] 10% cut. That's all we ask. It's actually very reasonable. +[480.36 --> 481.36] It is. Yahoo. +[481.36 --> 482.36] Yahoo. +[482.36 --> 483.36] Yahoo. +[483.36 --> 484.36] That's terrible. +[484.36 --> 485.36] I love it. +[485.36 --> 487.36] All right, let's move into our next headline topic. +[487.36 --> 489.36] We're going to try and compress the show a little bit because we started so late. +[489.36 --> 491.36] We're really sorry for that, guys. +[491.36 --> 495.36] We are on a brand new dedicated line for the show. +[495.36 --> 497.36] So, there you go. +[497.36 --> 498.36] All right. +[498.36 --> 500.36] Over to my screen. +[500.36 --> 501.36] Boom! +[501.36 --> 502.36] Leaked! +[502.36 --> 513.36] This is allegedly, and I can neither confirm nor deny, a picture of the R9 295 X2. +[513.36 --> 519.36] AMD's rumored, upcoming, rumored to be dual GPU graphics card with what is rumored to be +[519.36 --> 526.36] 8 gigs of GDDR5 memory is rumored to have a radiator attached to it. +[526.36 --> 527.36] Rumored. +[527.36 --> 528.36] Rumored. +[528.36 --> 529.36] Allegedly. +[529.36 --> 534.36] Now, we've seen implementations like this before with low profile, like, you know, guys +[534.36 --> 541.36] like CoolIt or Asatech make these things, low profile pump block combo units on each GPU, +[541.36 --> 546.36] and then a fan to take care of cooling the rest of the components, the memory, the VRM, +[546.36 --> 548.36] and all of that good stuff. +[548.36 --> 553.36] But this would be the first time that we've seen a, I mean, it's going to be pretty niche, +[553.36 --> 558.36] but this would be the first time that we've seen a mass produced product implement something +[558.36 --> 559.36] like this right out of the box. +[559.36 --> 560.36] I mean, Sapphire. +[560.36 --> 561.36] I was going to say, it's happened. +[561.36 --> 562.36] Yeah. +[562.36 --> 564.36] Guys like Sapphire have done this kind of stuff. +[564.36 --> 567.36] It's like, here's a liquid cooled graphics card out of the box. +[567.36 --> 568.36] And, yeah. +[568.36 --> 569.36] Yeah. +[569.36 --> 573.36] But, this is the first time we've seen a reference design to it. +[573.36 --> 574.36] That's what I was, yeah. +[574.36 --> 576.36] I was going to say, there's actually been like a few, but not reference ones. +[576.36 --> 577.36] All right. +[577.36 --> 580.36] And when you say mass produced, like I don't know how many of these are actually going to make either. +[580.36 --> 581.36] I have no idea. +[581.36 --> 582.36] I mean, I do know. +[582.36 --> 584.36] I could definitely see it being limited. +[584.36 --> 589.36] I do know that some of the, I'm just going to move this again. +[589.36 --> 595.36] I do know that some of the dual GPU cards in the past have actually been fairly limited production run. +[595.36 --> 596.36] Yeah. +[596.36 --> 601.36] And they have intentionally kept the supply constrained because they know that if they just flooded the market with them, +[601.36 --> 603.36] there's no way they could sell them all anyway. +[603.36 --> 606.36] And, uh, so that may be AMD's strategy here. +[606.36 --> 609.36] Keep it as a niche appeal item. +[609.36 --> 615.36] So, the rumored suggested retail price is over $1,500. +[615.36 --> 618.36] And when did this happen? +[618.36 --> 621.36] It was always like a grand, wasn't it? +[621.36 --> 622.36] Yes. +[622.36 --> 623.36] And then it was like, Titan Z. +[623.36 --> 624.36] Nope. +[624.36 --> 625.36] Well, no, no. +[625.36 --> 629.36] What started this, actually, I think we have Nvidia to blame for this. +[629.36 --> 630.36] Well, we do. +[630.36 --> 631.36] Titan. +[631.36 --> 632.36] But not Titan Z. +[632.36 --> 633.36] Because Titan... +[633.36 --> 634.36] How much was Titan? +[634.36 --> 637.36] A thousand dollars for a single GPU card. +[637.36 --> 642.36] So, they came in and they went, okay, we've got the 690, which is a dual GPU card. +[642.36 --> 649.36] We're gonna put another card at that price point, Titan, at a thousand dollars, and that is our thousand dollars to your card. +[649.36 --> 655.36] Now, that's a single GPU card, but if you want two of those, which by the way is a miracle of engineering, +[655.36 --> 660.36] depending on the clock speeds that Nvidia and AMD, like both of them, miraculous engineering. +[660.36 --> 665.36] But if you want two of these things on a card, you gotta pay more than a grand now. +[665.36 --> 667.36] Like, what happened? +[667.36 --> 669.36] I don't know. +[669.36 --> 671.36] Cause like, it wasn't that long ago. +[671.36 --> 672.36] Like, personally, who cares? +[672.36 --> 674.36] Just buy two of the other one. +[674.36 --> 676.36] It's gonna be so much better anyways. +[676.36 --> 677.36] And cheaper. +[677.36 --> 682.36] Well, we don't have a clear idea of what the clock speeds will be on this card. +[682.36 --> 693.36] But what is rumored, allegedly, is that it will have a total of 5,632 stream processors, making it two fully fledged Hawaii XT cores. +[693.36 --> 694.36] Boom. +[694.36 --> 696.36] Did you say boo or boom? +[696.36 --> 697.36] Boom. +[697.36 --> 698.36] Boom. +[698.36 --> 699.36] Boom. +[699.36 --> 700.36] Boom. +[700.36 --> 701.36] Boom. +[701.36 --> 702.36] Boom. +[702.36 --> 703.36] Boom. +[703.36 --> 704.36] Boom. +[704.36 --> 705.36] Boom. +[705.36 --> 706.36] Boom. +[706.36 --> 707.36] Boom. +[712.36 --> 713.36] Boom. +[713.36 --> 714.36] Boom. +[714.36 --> 715.36] Boom. +[715.36 --> 716.36] Boom. +[716.36 --> 717.36] Boom. +[717.36 --> 718.36] Yeah. +[718.36 --> 719.36] That was a big thing. +[719.36 --> 720.36] Was it that water thing? +[720.36 --> 723.36] If you look close enough, right when he hits the water... +[723.36 --> 724.36] Yeah. +[724.36 --> 725.36] There's like a fire explosion then it instantly switches to water. +[725.36 --> 726.32] If you look close enough, it's there. +[726.32 --> 727.36] And if you follow the people's camera when they're in the water, it's like... +[727.36 --> 728.36] It blows up. +[728.36 --> 729.36] But, like, only for a second. +[729.36 --> 730.36] It's how they're simulating the... +[730.36 --> 731.36] Yeah. +[731.36 --> 732.36] That's fascinating. +[732.36 --> 733.36] Yeah. +[733.36 --> 734.36] That is a cheap hack and I love it. +[734.36 --> 735.36] It is. +[735.36 --> 736.36] Yeah. +[736.36 --> 739.48] Of the excellent water physics they already have in the game. +[739.54 --> 739.72] Yep. +[739.86 --> 741.66] And a mechanic they've already built. +[741.78 --> 741.98] Yep. +[743.32 --> 744.94] Go look at that footage again. +[745.24 --> 748.92] Pay attention and look for the yellowy fire explosion +[748.92 --> 751.32] that would happen from a bomb in Battlefield 4 +[751.32 --> 753.72] and watch it just disappear right away. +[754.48 --> 755.66] Touché, Dice. +[756.60 --> 757.08] Touché. +[757.16 --> 757.40] Yep. +[757.50 --> 758.98] I don't know how many people have actually noticed that. +[759.60 --> 760.52] I love it. +[760.64 --> 762.38] I had to segue to that because I was like, +[762.44 --> 764.00] this somehow connects. +[764.46 --> 765.04] And there we go. +[765.18 --> 765.28] Done. +[765.28 --> 767.28] Speaking of Kinect, +[767.90 --> 771.72] lots of great Microsoft news this week, +[771.80 --> 774.30] although very little of it is to do with Kinect, if at all. +[774.80 --> 775.68] Nothing's to do with Kinect. +[775.74 --> 775.94] None. +[776.78 --> 777.44] Well, hold on. +[777.62 --> 782.76] You could make the argument that Cortana could potentially be Kinect-related at some point. +[783.24 --> 783.66] Yeah, maybe. +[783.94 --> 784.14] Yeah. +[784.64 --> 788.56] Yeah, because I don't see Microsoft putting a bunch of resources +[788.56 --> 791.00] into an excellent voice control mechanism +[791.00 --> 794.46] and then not putting it on the Xbox One, which desperately needs it. +[794.46 --> 794.96] Yeah. +[794.96 --> 796.12] All right. +[796.28 --> 801.54] So Windows 8 will be free on devices under 9-inch. +[801.54 --> 803.60] This is amazing. +[803.60 --> 808.24] And it pretty much makes me forgive Microsoft, but not Google, +[808.24 --> 812.18] for that whole thing with not allowing tablets that run both OSes. +[812.18 --> 813.84] So our original source here is the Verge. +[813.84 --> 817.98] And the idea is that with phones and tablets, +[818.36 --> 823.10] this has been a huge roadblock for Microsoft gaining any market share. +[823.18 --> 830.28] Because let me tell you, from talking to guys like HTC about the kinds of constraints +[830.28 --> 833.38] that they are under when building a cell phone, +[833.38 --> 837.42] they basically are at the mercy of the providers who say, +[837.66 --> 840.38] look, we're going to sell it for this much under contract. +[841.68 --> 844.60] So whatever it costs you, we don't care. +[844.70 --> 845.28] Figure it out. +[845.52 --> 845.70] Yeah. +[845.70 --> 847.78] That is how that business works. +[848.46 --> 853.78] So for Microsoft to take some of the burden off of the handset makers +[853.78 --> 857.92] where they have to pay for the OS compared to Android, which is free, +[858.28 --> 862.76] and iOS, which Apple is obviously subsidizing in enough ways +[862.76 --> 863.84] that they can just say, +[863.94 --> 867.16] okay, well, you know, we don't have to charge ourselves for the OS +[867.16 --> 871.40] because we're going to make money on the 30% cut we take on the App Store. +[871.52 --> 875.74] We're going to make money on any kinds of purchases off of iTunes +[875.74 --> 877.68] that this ecosystem builds. +[877.90 --> 879.64] They don't have to worry about the cost of the OS, +[879.74 --> 883.18] where now Microsoft is making Windows free on devices with screens under 9 inches. +[883.26 --> 883.70] I love it. +[884.00 --> 884.72] It's very cool. +[884.96 --> 887.10] I saw a lot of people in the comments celebrating, +[887.32 --> 888.78] saying that they were going to install it. +[889.04 --> 889.92] I don't know. +[889.94 --> 890.74] Yeah, it's not that simple. +[890.94 --> 891.22] No. +[891.44 --> 893.92] I think this is more awesome because you can see it on more devices, +[894.26 --> 895.80] hopefully at a cheaper price point and stuff, +[895.80 --> 899.80] not necessarily because you're going to be able to hack and doze your phone. +[900.50 --> 901.52] Although, that would be cool. +[901.66 --> 902.52] That would be pretty cool. +[902.78 --> 903.52] I mean, that would be really cool. +[903.52 --> 905.02] And maybe that becomes a thing. +[905.10 --> 905.48] I don't know. +[905.56 --> 906.92] But right now, it's not. +[907.98 --> 911.36] Because, I mean, that's one of the big problems with Windows Phone. +[911.46 --> 913.36] It's the very limited hardware that's available. +[913.74 --> 916.16] That's another thing, actually, to segue into another topic, +[916.22 --> 917.82] which I don't even know where it is. +[918.42 --> 921.60] But they're encouraging people to make cross-platform apps now. +[921.60 --> 928.30] So if you make an app for the Windows Store on a Windows 8.1 PC, +[928.90 --> 931.42] it should hopefully also work on the phone. +[931.62 --> 931.82] Right. +[931.94 --> 932.08] Yeah. +[932.24 --> 936.70] No, they're pushing much tighter integration across the platforms overall. +[936.84 --> 941.72] In fact, I've got a YouTube video here that we can just go ahead and have a quick boo at. +[941.72 --> 942.48] This video is awesome. +[942.90 --> 943.12] Yeah. +[943.42 --> 944.50] The video is super short. +[944.50 --> 945.12] No, it's not that one. +[945.24 --> 945.82] It's a different one. +[946.26 --> 947.46] The video is super short. +[948.36 --> 950.20] Windows and Windows Phone together. +[950.20 --> 957.18] And basically, Joe Belfiore just talks about how they want them to be better integrated. +[957.46 --> 958.56] And he shows a quick example. +[958.78 --> 959.78] Okay, he talks for a bit. +[960.76 --> 961.16] Bloop. +[963.54 --> 964.14] Bloop. +[964.68 --> 966.30] Okay, so he shows an example. +[967.70 --> 968.26] Bloop. +[968.26 --> 968.34] Bloop. +[969.70 --> 971.10] Come on, bloop. +[971.94 --> 978.74] Where he changes the background desktop wallpaper color, so the theme, on his phone. +[979.12 --> 984.16] And a few seconds later, although they've edited the video, so I have no idea how many seconds it actually took. +[984.34 --> 989.06] A few seconds later, the Windows desktop changes color as well. +[989.44 --> 992.62] And then, of course, they're going to work with, what do they call it now? +[992.70 --> 993.38] OneDrive? +[993.88 --> 994.32] Something. +[994.32 --> 995.32] The rebranding of SkyDrive. +[995.32 --> 997.96] So their cloud storage is going to be tightly integrated. +[998.08 --> 1003.30] They want the apps to be tightly integrated so that you're having more of an ecosystem experience. +[1003.84 --> 1006.66] And that is ultimately how they're going to make this strategy work. +[1006.76 --> 1010.20] Microsoft is making a big bet here. +[1010.20 --> 1016.98] Because this is such a huge departure from their traditional business of selling you the OS up front. +[1017.16 --> 1023.84] Whereas now, you look at the new strategy, they're going to go, okay, well, we still want you to buy Windows. +[1024.00 --> 1030.04] Mind you, they're slashing prices on Windows 8.1 for desktops as well by 70%. +[1030.04 --> 1030.76] For makers. +[1030.76 --> 1032.58] For device makers. +[1032.58 --> 1032.90] Yeah. +[1033.02 --> 1033.68] Not for standalone. +[1034.02 --> 1039.00] So they're basically going, okay, look, we're going to sell you much cheaper Windows for your desktop machine. +[1039.18 --> 1041.60] We're going to give it to you for your phone and your tablet. +[1042.12 --> 1045.86] And then we need to find other ways to make up that revenue. +[1046.04 --> 1050.12] But I'm looking at some of the ways that they're doing it going, wow, this is really smart. +[1050.12 --> 1053.14] So let's talk about Office for iPad for a moment here. +[1053.42 --> 1053.98] Yep, definitely. +[1054.42 --> 1059.44] Office for iPad downloads reached 12 million collectively. +[1060.04 --> 1060.24] That's massive. +[1060.64 --> 1062.02] That is a big number. +[1062.64 --> 1072.10] I mean, the number of iPads out there, I think, is estimated to be somewhere in the 150 million to 250 million sort of range. +[1072.10 --> 1088.10] So if you look at that and go, okay, let's say even the higher number is more accurate, that means that 5% of iPad users are so tired of the other productivity solutions that they want Microsoft Office, +[1088.72 --> 1095.48] which, let's face it, is probably the only reason that a Surface RT ever sold a single unit. +[1096.12 --> 1097.74] Two quick questions before we keep going forward. +[1097.74 --> 1101.44] How long do you think until they rename it Office 1 instead of Office 365? +[1102.18 --> 1104.28] And two, what do you think the next Word is going to be? +[1104.36 --> 1107.12] Because right now everyone is naming everything something 1. +[1107.50 --> 1109.26] Well, hopefully not Word 1. +[1110.22 --> 1111.24] I want Word 1. +[1111.24 --> 1113.16] No, I don't mean Word as in, oh, that's confusing. +[1113.32 --> 1114.58] I don't mean Word as in the program. +[1114.88 --> 1117.24] I mean Word as in how everyone's using the Word 1. +[1117.90 --> 1119.66] Like everyone's going to switch at some point. +[1119.86 --> 1119.96] Yeah. +[1120.74 --> 1121.56] I hope. +[1121.62 --> 1122.94] I want Word Up. +[1125.24 --> 1126.22] It's worth a shot. +[1126.22 --> 1129.32] Word Up is the subscription one because it just constantly gets better. +[1129.42 --> 1129.82] Yes. +[1130.48 --> 1131.44] Okay, Tim. +[1131.66 --> 1132.92] Tim from Microsoft. +[1133.66 --> 1134.30] 10% man. +[1134.42 --> 1135.36] I hope you're watching. +[1135.90 --> 1139.08] Please, like, send some emails, okay? +[1139.38 --> 1141.26] It needs to be called Word Up. +[1141.84 --> 1142.86] Like the step-up model. +[1142.98 --> 1143.68] Okay, so anyway. +[1143.68 --> 1150.62] The free version of Office for iPad actually only supports a very limited set of features. +[1150.62 --> 1158.52] And the way that Microsoft wants you to give them money is by going for an Office 365 subscription. +[1158.52 --> 1162.92] So, it's $99 or more for a year. +[1163.76 --> 1166.24] And let's talk frankly about this for a moment. +[1167.12 --> 1169.40] Does Office 365 make sense to you? +[1169.96 --> 1172.82] I think we were talking earlier. +[1173.02 --> 1174.38] Did my whole computer just lock up? +[1174.48 --> 1175.60] Why do I have so many problems with laptops? +[1175.76 --> 1176.34] No, it's all good. +[1177.82 --> 1178.26] It's called Pellet. +[1178.26 --> 1180.64] About, about, no, it's not. +[1181.06 --> 1185.30] It's called my previous laptop is really, really old now and has problems. +[1185.40 --> 1185.98] And this one? +[1185.98 --> 1187.16] And do you like this laptop? +[1187.52 --> 1187.86] No. +[1189.42 --> 1189.86] Anyway. +[1192.74 --> 1195.02] I wasn't going to say, yeah, we were talking about doing it for the business. +[1195.30 --> 1196.32] But it's really expensive. +[1197.04 --> 1197.52] Right. +[1197.52 --> 1198.76] Because of how many subs we'd have to get. +[1198.96 --> 1199.10] Yep. +[1199.54 --> 1201.34] But it allows five devices. +[1201.94 --> 1202.08] Yeah. +[1202.10 --> 1203.82] And collaborative tools. +[1204.22 --> 1204.46] I mean. +[1204.78 --> 1206.38] But is it five different users? +[1207.24 --> 1207.46] No. +[1207.92 --> 1209.00] Five devices per user. +[1209.22 --> 1211.38] So, as a company, that's a lot of subscriptions. +[1211.38 --> 1211.70] Okay. +[1211.86 --> 1216.12] But if I want people to be able to work out of office more easily. +[1216.60 --> 1217.86] If I want them to be able to. +[1217.86 --> 1218.70] You definitely do. +[1218.88 --> 1219.60] If I want them to. +[1219.68 --> 1220.12] Like, okay. +[1220.22 --> 1220.36] No. +[1220.46 --> 1226.78] I mean, great example of this is if I want to share like a B-roll shot list with someone +[1226.78 --> 1230.48] really easily that I kind of created but I need to finish up. +[1230.48 --> 1234.92] If I could edit that on my phone, share it with the group, and send a push notification, +[1235.12 --> 1236.44] how great does that make our lives? +[1236.44 --> 1237.72] No, that would be really nice. +[1237.90 --> 1238.96] Or if you can. +[1239.04 --> 1243.64] If you have your laptop and you want to be able to, you know, do a PowerPoint presentation +[1243.64 --> 1245.78] on some other machine, just being able to grab it. +[1245.96 --> 1248.20] The advantages are tangible. +[1248.54 --> 1253.58] And the cost compared to something like Creative Cloud, which we already subscribe to for. +[1253.88 --> 1254.70] How much is Creative Cloud? +[1254.94 --> 1256.54] $80 a month per user, I think. +[1256.66 --> 1257.02] Excuse me. +[1257.54 --> 1257.94] Not sure. +[1258.02 --> 1258.74] Something like that. +[1258.74 --> 1262.32] And the cost is actually not that high if you look at it from a monthly perspective. +[1264.12 --> 1264.52] Yeah. +[1264.58 --> 1267.12] Office 365 is five computers and five devices. +[1267.26 --> 1267.72] There you go. +[1267.96 --> 1268.20] Yeah. +[1268.20 --> 1270.00] So that's from someone in Twitch chat here. +[1270.14 --> 1270.82] And like, that's cool. +[1270.92 --> 1274.54] And I can definitely see it for university kids because it's easy. +[1274.54 --> 1277.00] Because I'm just so tired of other solutions. +[1277.24 --> 1281.40] Although at the same time, if you just bought whatever release version of Word was released +[1281.40 --> 1285.54] at the beginning of your university life, you could probably use it the entire time through. +[1286.20 --> 1287.96] But then it doesn't have all the other features. +[1287.96 --> 1291.36] The Word Drive integration and the live editing and collaboration. +[1291.36 --> 1294.92] Honestly, I see this being more of a feature for people that are going to have to, like, +[1295.08 --> 1296.02] maybe business kids. +[1296.32 --> 1298.72] They're going to have to do a lot of collaborative work on big documents. +[1299.34 --> 1300.62] And offices. +[1300.96 --> 1306.42] I don't know if it necessarily makes as much sense for us because we're going to spend a lot more of our time in video editing software. +[1306.42 --> 1308.92] I don't think everyone here needs it. +[1309.32 --> 1309.52] No. +[1309.62 --> 1310.84] I think you need it and I need it. +[1311.16 --> 1311.50] Probably. +[1312.54 --> 1313.66] But I think that... +[1313.66 --> 1313.76] Okay. +[1313.88 --> 1317.16] Like, how tired are you of Dropbox? +[1317.16 --> 1326.16] And, like, I've gotten to the point where because sometimes it doesn't sync correctly with Dropbox and you resave it and then it doesn't go elsewhere and, like, it's... +[1326.16 --> 1334.78] And even though I save on the server my massive, massive Excel sheet, which, like, I understand why it's crashing because it's massive. +[1335.36 --> 1336.70] Because I keep everything in there. +[1336.86 --> 1337.00] Yeah. +[1337.00 --> 1339.48] But it can still crash and then that's catastrophic. +[1339.48 --> 1341.90] And it just doesn't work that well. +[1341.98 --> 1346.08] Whereas if I can have something that just syncs correctly all the time, I would pay money for that. +[1346.44 --> 1347.60] The problem... +[1347.60 --> 1354.48] But, again, this is where Microsoft still needs to get your money from you somehow, is that it is only going to work with OneDrive. +[1354.62 --> 1360.40] So right now the iPad app has no integration with other services like Google Drive or Dropbox. +[1360.52 --> 1362.44] So they want to sell you cloud storage. +[1362.60 --> 1365.02] They want to sell you a subscription to their software. +[1365.32 --> 1367.22] But they're going to give you the OS for free. +[1367.22 --> 1373.66] It sounds crazy because it's Microsoft, but is it really any different from what other guys are doing? +[1374.40 --> 1379.02] I just saw someone type in Twitch chat, it's not free because it's a subscription, you idiots. +[1379.46 --> 1381.76] I have no idea what that guy means. +[1381.96 --> 1382.96] Windows will be free. +[1383.18 --> 1384.12] That's not a subscription. +[1384.54 --> 1385.80] Oh, is that what he interpreted? +[1385.82 --> 1386.12] Maybe. +[1386.20 --> 1386.92] From what we were saying? +[1387.00 --> 1389.68] Yeah, because we know Office 365 isn't free. +[1389.86 --> 1394.68] I just spent, like, a while talking about how it might be too expensive for the company to adopt to it. +[1394.68 --> 1397.98] But, yeah, I don't know. +[1398.66 --> 1399.00] All right. +[1399.16 --> 1400.74] So let's move on to... +[1400.74 --> 1401.36] Oh, actually, no. +[1401.42 --> 1402.80] There was more good Microsoft news. +[1402.92 --> 1403.26] I wanted to... +[1403.26 --> 1404.00] Ah, yes! +[1404.38 --> 1406.78] The Windows 8.1 update. +[1407.04 --> 1410.18] So I think you're a big fan of everything that's going on here. +[1410.32 --> 1416.82] So maybe I'll play the video for them and you can kind of talk while Joe talks or doesn't talk because he's muted. +[1418.06 --> 1418.46] Okay. +[1418.62 --> 1419.20] So go hard. +[1419.20 --> 1422.42] So I saw a leak on The Verge. +[1422.48 --> 1423.76] I saw a leak on a bunch of other things. +[1423.88 --> 1427.46] New York Times, which I was really scared of going to because of what they've done to me lately. +[1427.62 --> 1429.98] I feel like an abused child when it comes to the New York Times. +[1431.30 --> 1432.34] Some people will get that. +[1432.42 --> 1432.72] Not everyone. +[1433.42 --> 1435.30] But this is a leak about different... +[1435.30 --> 1436.10] Well, not really a leak. +[1436.16 --> 1436.62] It's official. +[1437.14 --> 1440.36] About different things that are coming to Windows 8.1 update 1. +[1440.66 --> 1442.44] They should have just called it Windows 8.2. +[1442.84 --> 1443.08] But... +[1443.08 --> 1444.04] Or Service Pack 1. +[1444.12 --> 1444.98] Or Service Pack 1. +[1444.98 --> 1446.46] Or something that they've done before. +[1446.86 --> 1446.98] But whatever. +[1446.98 --> 1447.42] Whatever. +[1447.94 --> 1449.38] Everyone sucks at naming nowadays. +[1449.66 --> 1450.18] I know, right? +[1450.18 --> 1451.76] So we'll just take it, I guess. +[1452.60 --> 1456.52] But they're stepping back and doing some things that they should have done for a long time. +[1456.80 --> 1458.48] And they're doing some of them in very interesting ways. +[1458.56 --> 1460.94] So they're doing stuff like you can boot and resume directly to your desktop. +[1461.28 --> 1461.68] Yay! +[1463.40 --> 1464.20] Super cool. +[1464.34 --> 1466.56] But then at the same time, this is very easy to hack in yourself. +[1466.70 --> 1468.24] And why wasn't that a feature before? +[1468.42 --> 1468.56] Anyway. +[1468.58 --> 1469.50] And why wasn't that a feature before? +[1469.56 --> 1470.34] Straight to desktop. +[1470.68 --> 1471.54] No modern UI. +[1471.76 --> 1472.28] Yeah, seriously. +[1472.28 --> 1476.46] Windows Store apps can now open as Windows and can be pinned to the taskbar. +[1476.60 --> 1477.70] That is very cool. +[1478.00 --> 1484.52] Because it's super frustrating when I open something and like the default program, which I know I can change but still, is a Windows app. +[1484.84 --> 1487.08] And then it's like, how do I even get out of this? +[1487.18 --> 1488.36] How do I get back to what I was doing? +[1488.56 --> 1489.76] Why is it my full screen? +[1489.90 --> 1490.74] All this other junk. +[1490.74 --> 1495.26] So now it can open as Windows on your desktop, which is nice. +[1495.38 --> 1500.92] I mean, I think the most offensive one there had to be the picture viewing app, the default one. +[1500.92 --> 1501.68] Oh my god. +[1501.70 --> 1505.80] It is the giantest, steamingest pile of garbage ever. +[1505.96 --> 1506.12] Yeah. +[1506.24 --> 1507.68] Like it really is. +[1507.74 --> 1508.58] So I'm going to go ahead. +[1508.62 --> 1510.54] I'm just going to open up like one of my thumbnails. +[1510.86 --> 1514.92] And I'm going to intentionally open it with this terrible, terrible application. +[1514.92 --> 1515.82] Why you ever would. +[1516.18 --> 1516.70] Who knows. +[1516.78 --> 1518.42] Why you would ever want to use it. +[1518.46 --> 1519.28] I have no idea. +[1519.28 --> 1520.40] Okay, so photos. +[1521.02 --> 1526.26] So I open it in this thing and it's like, okay, what can I do? +[1527.02 --> 1527.50] Oh, okay. +[1527.52 --> 1529.48] It's actually managing to switch between photos. +[1529.48 --> 1531.76] I've rarely even seen it be able to do that before. +[1531.80 --> 1532.20] I know. +[1532.34 --> 1534.12] So half the time it doesn't even do that. +[1534.46 --> 1536.42] How do I make it full screen? +[1537.08 --> 1537.80] Okay, and then. +[1538.08 --> 1540.78] But then one thing is you're doing all this with a touch screen as well. +[1540.98 --> 1542.20] And I'm doing this with a touch screen. +[1542.34 --> 1543.92] It's a lot worse without a touch screen. +[1544.06 --> 1544.24] Yeah, exactly. +[1544.24 --> 1545.12] Like I hate that thing. +[1545.12 --> 1545.90] A lot, a lot worse. +[1545.90 --> 1549.60] It's the first thing that makes me realize that I'm on Windows 8. +[1550.36 --> 1552.88] See, and then you're trying to press the escape button because you're like, I want to get out of this. +[1552.88 --> 1554.32] Because it's a full screen application. +[1554.56 --> 1556.28] Escape should make it, not full screen. +[1556.46 --> 1558.24] Because you're supposed to escape the application. +[1558.42 --> 1560.06] But anyways, yeah. +[1560.22 --> 1561.62] Now a thing going to be in Windows. +[1561.74 --> 1562.32] That's very nice. +[1562.40 --> 1567.26] They're also going to have minimize and close buttons in the top right hand corner, which is going to be nice. +[1567.26 --> 1570.16] So if you're in full screen, you can actually minimize it now. +[1570.24 --> 1571.08] It'll minimize it to your taskbar. +[1571.08 --> 1571.60] I'm showing them that now. +[1571.64 --> 1574.68] Although we just barely cut off so they can't see it. +[1575.12 --> 1575.48] Awesome. +[1575.82 --> 1576.08] Anyway. +[1576.16 --> 1576.72] That's great. +[1577.02 --> 1579.02] But yeah, that's there now, which is awesome. +[1579.12 --> 1581.76] And again, should have been there for a really, really long time. +[1582.24 --> 1584.86] They added media control to store apps in the taskbar. +[1584.96 --> 1587.02] Although this was definitely already a thing. +[1587.16 --> 1587.92] In Windows 7. +[1587.92 --> 1592.64] But like, they added it to the store apps, which is like, okay, well, okay. +[1593.50 --> 1596.52] That definitely should have just been like an automatic knee jerk. +[1596.66 --> 1597.70] We need this to be a thing. +[1597.86 --> 1599.32] Not a added feature. +[1599.60 --> 1602.88] You can shut down the computer without dragging your mouse to the bottom corner. +[1603.48 --> 1608.46] Carefully moving it up so you don't go outside of the little bend there. +[1608.86 --> 1610.78] And then, yeah, so that's good. +[1610.90 --> 1612.62] Happy the search is there as well. +[1612.92 --> 1615.32] And then there's also now a tile icon for PC settings. +[1615.32 --> 1619.38] So there's like almost no reason to swipe in from the right anymore because that was super dumb. +[1619.72 --> 1621.98] So luckily that's no longer a thing. +[1622.60 --> 1628.86] There's now right-click context menu for things in the modern UI junk, which hopefully will never be in there anyways. +[1629.90 --> 1634.24] And you can like move groups of things around because you can now multi-select by holding control. +[1634.42 --> 1636.12] Again, hopefully you'll just never be in there anyways. +[1636.22 --> 1643.52] One thing about that though is that's not intuitive at all for people who are like touchscreen computer operators. +[1643.52 --> 1645.06] It's like, yeah, you can rewrite. +[1645.20 --> 1649.36] Like that to me, holding control to multi-select is a power user thing. +[1649.78 --> 1651.38] That's not something my mom does. +[1652.14 --> 1656.70] So like even implementing features like that in modern UI, it's like why are you even spending the time? +[1656.98 --> 1658.02] Yeah, in modern UI. +[1658.18 --> 1658.36] Yeah. +[1658.48 --> 1659.54] Yeah, definitely agree. +[1659.68 --> 1661.54] In the rest of the computer, it's like, okay, that makes sense. +[1661.60 --> 1662.22] Yeah, use it all the time. +[1662.54 --> 1663.32] Yeah, it's already a thing. +[1664.00 --> 1665.44] So yeah, I hear you on that. +[1665.52 --> 1667.58] But then again, hopefully you're just never going to use it anyways. +[1667.72 --> 1668.20] So who cares? +[1668.28 --> 1669.42] Let them innovate as much as they want. +[1670.04 --> 1674.04] In the all apps section, things are now highlighted as you guys can probably see on screen. +[1674.14 --> 1675.02] Nope, he's not showing it. +[1675.22 --> 1682.10] Anyways, now if you go to all apps, newly installed applications will be highlighted so you can find them easily, which is like, all right, cool, I guess. +[1682.10 --> 1688.08] And then what everyone actually cares about, which we still can't see, is the new start menu. +[1688.20 --> 1689.16] I'm not very good at this. +[1689.22 --> 1700.02] It's just, if you now click on the start menu, it shows a more classic styled start menu and then it has metro styled things on the right, which I actually think is pretty cool. +[1700.96 --> 1708.94] And the only place in here where I wasn't like, okay, well, I either hate modern UI and don't use it, so don't care about any of these changes. +[1708.94 --> 1718.14] Or I just installed classic start or some other form of start button and got all these things like directly to desktop anyways. +[1718.66 --> 1719.78] So why does any of this matter? +[1720.10 --> 1721.78] The start menu looks really good. +[1722.34 --> 1723.94] It has the old style. +[1724.40 --> 1725.72] Can you share that? +[1726.08 --> 1726.88] If you click there. +[1727.12 --> 1727.72] Oh my God. +[1728.06 --> 1729.18] I hate Windows 8. +[1729.88 --> 1731.06] Nope, doesn't work. +[1731.32 --> 1731.56] Really? +[1731.62 --> 1732.56] You have it set up like that? +[1732.90 --> 1734.16] You don't have a start menu set up? +[1734.78 --> 1735.44] I use touch. +[1735.94 --> 1737.38] Okay, I guess it makes sense you have touch. +[1737.38 --> 1739.68] And I don't use the start menu. +[1739.80 --> 1740.48] I pin everything. +[1741.16 --> 1743.56] I haven't touched the start menu on my desktop in months. +[1743.56 --> 1744.12] Yeah, you just pin everything. +[1744.44 --> 1745.14] Yeah, that's true. +[1745.44 --> 1747.38] But now you can pin Windows apps. +[1747.38 --> 1748.46] So I can show you guys my setup. +[1748.66 --> 1750.92] Yeah, I could pin modern apps if I wanted to. +[1750.98 --> 1751.88] Why you even would want to. +[1751.92 --> 1752.44] No one knows. +[1752.60 --> 1753.32] But now you can do it. +[1753.56 --> 1754.20] Now we can do it. +[1754.20 --> 1759.12] My thing is now, not pinning them, but now they open in Windows so they don't disrupt you as much. +[1759.38 --> 1763.00] At least if you accidentally happen to open a modern app, you can just close it. +[1763.00 --> 1768.42] I mean, you know what the funny thing is, is when they tried to simplify, when they tried, +[1768.46 --> 1773.92] okay, when Microsoft realized that most people are only running probably a couple dozen apps +[1773.92 --> 1778.48] on a daily basis on their computers, and they went, okay, well, let's create this modern UI +[1778.48 --> 1782.80] where there's like nice big clickable buttons for them all or touchable or whatever they are. +[1782.80 --> 1790.68] What they screwed up was probably just the fact that it completely took over your screen +[1790.68 --> 1794.36] and stuff like that because I actually agree with the approach. +[1794.50 --> 1798.62] Which is why I like the new start menu, which if you have showed it yet on screen. +[1798.62 --> 1799.80] I can't find it in the video. +[1799.88 --> 1800.52] Okay, anyways. +[1801.12 --> 1802.72] Maybe Google image search. +[1803.14 --> 1804.24] Because I can plug into you. +[1804.44 --> 1804.66] Okay. +[1804.86 --> 1805.00] Yeah. +[1805.00 --> 1810.92] But I realized at that time that I'm already like that anyway. +[1811.22 --> 1816.86] I only have, I mean, now that I don't need a separate launcher for every one of my games +[1816.86 --> 1823.06] and I can just launch everything through Steam, I only use like maybe 20 programs. +[1823.40 --> 1823.58] Yep. +[1824.44 --> 1825.66] So there you go. +[1825.76 --> 1829.22] And like the nice thing about the new start menu, which I think I finally found, don't plug +[1829.22 --> 1829.70] it in yet. +[1830.04 --> 1831.36] It won't switch to it anyway. +[1831.64 --> 1832.36] Close that. +[1832.56 --> 1832.82] Okay. +[1833.82 --> 1834.22] Whoa. +[1834.22 --> 1835.24] Yeah, don't worry about it. +[1835.28 --> 1835.54] I know. +[1836.16 --> 1837.40] Okay, so can we show this now? +[1837.60 --> 1838.36] Yep, it should be fine. +[1839.02 --> 1839.92] But you can't see that. +[1841.24 --> 1841.44] Great. +[1841.44 --> 1841.98] Here, hold on. +[1842.30 --> 1842.64] Hold on. +[1842.72 --> 1843.02] Hold on. +[1843.18 --> 1843.66] Oh, I see. +[1843.66 --> 1843.80] Press the thing. +[1843.98 --> 1844.10] Yeah. +[1845.62 --> 1847.28] Wow, this thing is so poopy. +[1847.36 --> 1848.18] I hate this laptop. +[1848.48 --> 1848.94] I know. +[1849.42 --> 1850.30] I don't like it either. +[1851.08 --> 1851.88] We've been through this. +[1852.56 --> 1854.06] We've been through so very many things. +[1854.20 --> 1854.54] All right. +[1854.62 --> 1854.96] Just drop that in the box. +[1854.96 --> 1856.44] Just Google image search this. +[1857.62 --> 1859.38] Windows 8.1 Update 1 Start Menu. +[1859.56 --> 1860.32] That's all you need to do. +[1860.42 --> 1861.26] Wow, you make my life so difficult. +[1861.26 --> 1864.20] Anyways, it has the more classic-y style start menu. +[1864.22 --> 1869.08] It has an all apps thing, but I believe that's essentially the search button. +[1869.42 --> 1871.44] Then on the right, it has Metro style buttons. +[1871.78 --> 1873.30] I don't even know why I'm describing this one. +[1873.36 --> 1874.10] You're just going to pull it up. +[1874.66 --> 1875.46] That's not it. +[1875.46 --> 1879.72] Where is it? +[1879.98 --> 1880.40] This one? +[1880.66 --> 1881.02] No. +[1881.20 --> 1882.28] What did you even type in? +[1882.28 --> 1882.58] This one. +[1883.20 --> 1883.82] That must be it. +[1884.42 --> 1885.58] I don't think so. +[1885.88 --> 1886.12] Oh. +[1886.28 --> 1886.46] No. +[1887.42 --> 1889.90] Well, why didn't you just link me to it? +[1889.90 --> 1890.26] This is horrible. +[1890.70 --> 1891.24] You're horrible. +[1891.76 --> 1892.44] Update 1. +[1893.16 --> 1893.48] What? +[1893.72 --> 1894.00] Oh. +[1894.26 --> 1894.40] All right. +[1894.40 --> 1901.04] I don't even know what you're talking about. +[1901.04 --> 1901.74] That's one, I think. +[1902.74 --> 1903.20] Is this it? +[1903.24 --> 1903.76] Are you sure? +[1903.96 --> 1905.90] That's not the one I have on my screen, but that's one of them. +[1906.04 --> 1906.28] No. +[1907.36 --> 1907.76] Yeah. +[1907.88 --> 1908.20] No. +[1908.56 --> 1908.88] No. +[1909.20 --> 1909.56] No. +[1909.56 --> 1909.68] Close. +[1909.82 --> 1910.08] No. +[1910.40 --> 1910.64] No. +[1911.04 --> 1911.30] There. +[1911.46 --> 1912.12] There, there, there, there. +[1912.30 --> 1912.66] Okay. +[1912.80 --> 1913.06] That's it. +[1913.06 --> 1913.28] Finally. +[1915.76 --> 1916.36] All right. +[1916.42 --> 1917.66] So this is from Ars Technica. +[1917.78 --> 1919.76] Oh, you guys have been watching this whole thing. +[1920.34 --> 1921.84] I was screen sharing the whole time. +[1921.92 --> 1922.06] Okay. +[1922.08 --> 1922.60] There we go. +[1923.26 --> 1923.58] So. +[1923.76 --> 1926.98] So you can see it has a more classic style start menu on the left side. +[1926.98 --> 1929.94] Then it has more, I almost said Metro tiles. +[1930.08 --> 1931.32] That makes so much more sense to me. +[1931.56 --> 1935.68] Modern UI tiles on the right, which is actually totally fine because you can even see here there's +[1935.68 --> 1937.34] a feed and I like that a lot. +[1937.50 --> 1937.82] Yeah. +[1938.06 --> 1939.30] Because you can have feed style. +[1939.34 --> 1941.70] All I'm going to put in there really is feed style stuff. +[1941.74 --> 1941.90] Yeah. +[1941.90 --> 1945.14] So that I can just like click there, figure out what's going on right now. +[1945.26 --> 1946.86] Like YouTube and stuff like that. +[1946.86 --> 1947.14] Yeah. +[1947.14 --> 1947.18] Yeah. +[1947.18 --> 1947.50] Totally. +[1947.50 --> 1951.26] I want to put all my feed style things in there just so I can, if I'm going for apps, I can +[1951.26 --> 1954.20] see all these other things happening, which I think this is actually great. +[1954.54 --> 1958.14] And that's why I'm super stoked about this because I think this is actually the direction +[1958.14 --> 1959.60] they should have gone in the first place. +[1959.80 --> 1960.98] I think they figured it out. +[1961.10 --> 1964.60] This is so much better in my opinion than any of the ones that at least I have tried. +[1964.68 --> 1968.22] Maybe there's one out there because I haven't tried anything on Windows 8.1 in a +[1968.22 --> 1971.76] very long time because I'm just using Windows 7 because I'm more used to it. +[1971.76 --> 1972.24] I like it. +[1972.84 --> 1974.62] But that's the direction I'm hoping for. +[1974.70 --> 1979.12] So I'm excited for Windows 9 because I hope they keep doing stuff like this or Windows +[1979.12 --> 1979.94] whatever it's going to be. +[1980.16 --> 1981.04] But don't worry gamers. +[1981.22 --> 1987.72] You will not have to update to Windows 8.1 or Windows 9 because DirectX 12 has been confirmed +[1987.72 --> 1990.42] for Windows 7 and up. +[1990.54 --> 1997.58] The only version that is not getting DirectX 12 is Starter Edition, which let's face it, +[1997.58 --> 1999.94] you weren't running DirectX 12 Ready Hardware anyway. +[1999.94 --> 2000.34] No. +[2000.56 --> 2001.70] It's like netbooks and stuff. +[2001.82 --> 2002.00] Yeah. +[2002.40 --> 2003.36] So don't worry about it. +[2003.52 --> 2004.40] So that's great news. +[2004.48 --> 2004.88] Love it. +[2005.08 --> 2008.10] Thank you for UndeadMike18 for posting that on the forum. +[2008.24 --> 2014.08] And this tying in with all of the other Microsoft news ties into the death of the strategy tax +[2014.08 --> 2020.36] conversation, which is where Microsoft had an internal thing where you couldn't do anything +[2020.36 --> 2024.64] that was competitive with anything else in Microsoft's ecosystem within your own ecosystem. +[2024.64 --> 2028.72] So if you were developing for some sort of platform, if you wanted to do something, if +[2028.72 --> 2031.26] it conflicted with anything else, you couldn't do it. +[2031.70 --> 2032.34] Which held back. +[2032.34 --> 2035.22] I think you should probably give an example or two. +[2035.72 --> 2036.72] I was just going to. +[2036.88 --> 2037.20] Okay. +[2038.08 --> 2038.78] That's good. +[2038.78 --> 2044.94] So like if you were trying to release DirectX 12, it should be on new operating systems +[2044.94 --> 2051.54] to drive people to adopt new operating systems, not Windows 7, because then you're not, you're +[2051.54 --> 2055.76] actually creating a competing platform essentially, because you're making an older something better, +[2056.08 --> 2057.28] which they're not trying to sell anymore. +[2057.88 --> 2061.98] They're now trying to sell Windows 8.1 and possibly Windows 9 in the future. +[2061.98 --> 2066.84] So if they were like coming to Windows 8.1, that would drive their new goal, not Windows 7. +[2067.34 --> 2073.84] Another example would be, you know, if the Internet Explorer team was trying to dramatically +[2073.84 --> 2079.42] update or fix the way that web-based word processors that aren't made by Microsoft work +[2079.42 --> 2083.66] within the browser, that might get the old, hey, hold on, what are you doing? +[2083.78 --> 2085.82] You're not helping us sell Word. +[2086.42 --> 2088.72] You're just doing your own thing. +[2088.74 --> 2091.04] I was going to try and come up with some example that wasn't in the article. +[2091.04 --> 2092.84] Yeah, whatever. +[2094.04 --> 2094.94] It's a good example. +[2095.10 --> 2096.00] It is a pretty good example. +[2096.24 --> 2099.68] But like that's, they're both examples of, that's not good for the users. +[2100.02 --> 2104.06] That might be good for sales numbers, maybe in the short term, but that's not good for +[2104.06 --> 2107.62] the users and it's really frustrating because you're like, well, I have Windows 7. +[2107.82 --> 2108.60] I like Windows 7. +[2108.74 --> 2110.02] I want to be able to use DirectX 12. +[2110.32 --> 2111.62] Well, I have this browser. +[2111.86 --> 2112.68] I like this browser. +[2112.88 --> 2115.38] I want to be able to do basic word editing stuff in this browser. +[2116.06 --> 2117.38] I don't want to have to use Word. +[2117.38 --> 2117.86] Right. +[2117.86 --> 2118.06] Right. +[2118.18 --> 2121.88] And that makes your products just inferior and then no one wants any of them. +[2122.04 --> 2122.36] Exactly. +[2122.86 --> 2126.96] So in the long term, it makes things, everything bad instead of one or two things bad. +[2127.04 --> 2129.50] So hopefully we're done with that, at least for the time being. +[2130.02 --> 2135.80] And DirectX 12, yay, I can play Star Citizen in all its DirectX 12 glory, assuming they support +[2135.80 --> 2136.08] DirectX 12. +[2136.08 --> 2136.78] I'm sure they will. +[2137.16 --> 2137.32] Yeah. +[2137.32 --> 2139.16] And I don't have to upgrade. +[2139.64 --> 2139.94] Sweet. +[2140.38 --> 2142.52] Yeah, that's actually a really interesting thing because everyone is talking about how +[2142.52 --> 2144.26] they have to upgrade so much for Star Citizen and stuff. +[2144.26 --> 2144.40] Yeah. +[2144.72 --> 2145.74] And it won't be as big of a deal. +[2145.80 --> 2146.94] At least not the OS. +[2147.98 --> 2148.38] Okay. +[2148.64 --> 2152.26] So without further ado, let's get into our sponsor messages. +[2154.78 --> 2157.46] What on earth will you be doing at PAX East? +[2157.68 --> 2160.46] Brought to you, of course, by Intel and Corsair. +[2160.46 --> 2165.06] Without Intel and Corsair, he wouldn't be going because I'm not going to pay for it. +[2165.06 --> 2165.74] Nope. +[2166.48 --> 2168.30] Neither am I because that's actually pretty expensive. +[2168.72 --> 2168.96] Nope. +[2169.10 --> 2169.30] Yep. +[2169.44 --> 2169.64] Yep. +[2169.76 --> 2171.42] So Luke will be in Boston. +[2171.88 --> 2174.70] Guys, make sure you say hi to him if you see him on the show floor. +[2175.26 --> 2177.06] But tell the people what they'll be doing. +[2177.06 --> 2179.26] So we're going to be doing a bunch of different things. +[2179.44 --> 2183.88] One of them is we're going to have a build-off competition with Paul from Newegg. +[2184.82 --> 2186.38] And there will be no shenanigans. +[2186.48 --> 2187.36] That is a rule. +[2188.54 --> 2190.00] That was what Paul said today. +[2190.56 --> 2191.60] He said no shenanigans. +[2191.60 --> 2192.66] Paul said no shenanigans. +[2192.68 --> 2192.88] Yeah. +[2194.24 --> 2194.64] Paul. +[2194.64 --> 2195.44] That's a rule. +[2195.72 --> 2196.18] Paul did. +[2196.54 --> 2197.78] Rules are rules. +[2198.10 --> 2198.32] Yep. +[2199.20 --> 2200.44] Not meant to be broken. +[2200.52 --> 2201.94] And Paul made rules. +[2202.28 --> 2203.72] Paul set that rule. +[2204.16 --> 2204.60] Yes, he did. +[2204.88 --> 2205.10] Yep. +[2205.56 --> 2205.88] Okay. +[2206.30 --> 2209.32] Moving on, I will also be covering tons of gaming content. +[2209.76 --> 2212.40] I'll be releasing some stuff that's going on around the Intel booth. +[2212.82 --> 2215.50] And I'm probably going to be focusing on stuff like the Indie Mega booth. +[2216.44 --> 2217.66] Because indie games are awesome. +[2217.68 --> 2218.12] Really? +[2218.40 --> 2220.18] You're going to talk about indie games? +[2220.18 --> 2224.68] Because indie games are awesome. +[2224.80 --> 2228.12] And there's going to be 10 billion other publications that talk about all the AAA games that are there. +[2228.46 --> 2230.72] So we're just going to cover indie games. +[2230.86 --> 2232.12] And maybe a few other ones. +[2232.26 --> 2233.24] But probably mainly just indie games. +[2233.24 --> 2234.64] I actually don't care what he does. +[2235.48 --> 2235.74] No. +[2236.54 --> 2236.90] No. +[2237.04 --> 2238.48] He doesn't even know what's going to be there probably. +[2238.64 --> 2238.82] No. +[2239.92 --> 2240.82] I have no idea. +[2241.74 --> 2244.66] So basically from my perspective, I've asked him. +[2244.72 --> 2246.86] We have to do a few things for our sponsors. +[2246.86 --> 2252.10] So we have to make sure that we're bringing you the very best coverage of what Intel's got going on there. +[2252.16 --> 2253.18] Which is some pretty cool stuff. +[2253.24 --> 2253.86] Which helps a lot. +[2254.22 --> 2256.62] We're also going to have a pretty sweet giveaway that we're supporting. +[2256.74 --> 2258.64] That's going to involve some kind of Asus tablet. +[2259.02 --> 2260.56] I don't know exactly what yet. +[2260.78 --> 2261.88] So that's going to be pretty... +[2261.88 --> 2262.88] And possibly another thing. +[2262.98 --> 2263.86] Pretty freaking smurf. +[2263.98 --> 2265.34] Possibly other things as well. +[2265.76 --> 2267.60] So we're going to have that going on. +[2267.68 --> 2269.08] So we're going to be promoting that. +[2269.08 --> 2270.98] But other than that, I basically went, +[2271.06 --> 2274.60] Okay, Luke, Brandon, it's B-team all the way. +[2274.72 --> 2277.12] You guys decide what kind of coverage you want to create. +[2277.50 --> 2280.42] And there's no pressure to make like a billion videos. +[2280.42 --> 2286.58] So I just want them to bring you guys the best summarized, tight content that they can from the show. +[2286.66 --> 2287.50] So it should be really great. +[2287.72 --> 2293.12] Well, also, Brandon and I both got into the Star Citizen show on Thursday night. +[2294.34 --> 2296.98] Although I don't know what the terms are for that. +[2296.98 --> 2299.74] Because our team didn't get into the meeting with Chris Roberts. +[2299.88 --> 2302.06] So we don't know if we try to take a camera in. +[2302.52 --> 2303.74] If they're just going to be like, no. +[2304.36 --> 2306.16] Or if they're going to let us film stuff there. +[2306.34 --> 2307.34] We have no idea. +[2307.56 --> 2310.50] But we're going to try and grill a film as much as we can while we're there. +[2310.56 --> 2314.32] I emailed Mr. Roberts personally and got no reply. +[2314.96 --> 2316.22] About our lack of invitation. +[2316.98 --> 2317.26] I know. +[2318.62 --> 2320.86] He's arguably probably very busy. +[2321.48 --> 2321.80] Yeah. +[2322.10 --> 2322.90] Oh my god. +[2322.94 --> 2324.10] And imagine his inbox. +[2324.10 --> 2330.28] I don't even want to think about that. +[2330.70 --> 2332.50] Mine actually scares me. +[2332.86 --> 2333.94] Imagine his. +[2335.02 --> 2336.88] Speaking of things that are scary. +[2337.30 --> 2339.32] Websites that look good and are easy. +[2339.92 --> 2342.08] Wouldn't you say websites that look bad and are hard? +[2342.36 --> 2344.34] And you can get away from that by joining Squarespace? +[2344.92 --> 2345.24] Yeah. +[2345.34 --> 2346.44] That's a way better segue. +[2346.44 --> 2350.32] I should get you to do all the integrations from now on. +[2350.46 --> 2350.78] No. +[2351.44 --> 2352.84] So Squarespace.com. +[2352.94 --> 2359.16] The fast, easy, scalable, inexpensive, and all those good words way to build your own beautiful, +[2359.36 --> 2360.16] functional website. +[2360.36 --> 2364.90] They have a wide variety of fantastic templates to choose from. +[2364.90 --> 2370.26] You can use their logo creator to make your own simple and yet effective logo. +[2370.58 --> 2374.82] And you can get online in a matter of, well, okay, let's put it this way. +[2375.08 --> 2381.20] They give you a two-week trial of access to everything, after which time you should basically +[2381.20 --> 2386.54] have your website completely up and running, whether it's a blog or a, you know, like a newsfeed +[2386.54 --> 2389.30] or a portfolio or even a web store. +[2389.70 --> 2395.68] In fact, I heard a rumor that another popular tech YouTuber who does a long format news show +[2395.68 --> 2398.96] similar to what we're doing, but we weren't copying him, I swear. +[2399.68 --> 2400.86] Did I say copying him? +[2401.06 --> 2401.22] Ooh. +[2401.58 --> 2403.76] We weren't copying him, I swear. +[2404.28 --> 2408.42] I heard that, you know, there might be a web store powered by Squarespace in the future +[2408.42 --> 2409.78] for an individual like that. +[2409.86 --> 2411.22] It really is a great platform. +[2411.36 --> 2413.04] We use it for linusmediagroup.com. +[2413.04 --> 2416.62] It really isn't expensive and it really does scale with you. +[2416.72 --> 2421.78] If all of a sudden things take off and you get a ton more traffic, no big deal. +[2421.98 --> 2425.60] Squarespace just goes, okay, hey, he needs more bandwidth and more resources. +[2425.76 --> 2426.76] Now let's make this happen. +[2427.06 --> 2431.80] So they have a wide variety of different plans for anyone from just a simple, you know, blogger +[2431.80 --> 2435.82] with a camera who wants to do it as a hobby, all the way up to people who are trying to run +[2435.82 --> 2440.98] legitimate e-commerce stores and trying to support their business with a Squarespace.com website. +[2440.98 --> 2445.94] So guys, highly recommended and if you want 10% off, I'm going to say this just in case +[2445.94 --> 2446.58] they can't read. +[2447.34 --> 2454.40] Visit squarespace.com slash linus, typewriter style, for a free trial and 10% off. +[2454.64 --> 2456.38] Use author code linus. +[2458.18 --> 2460.78] That's the stupidest integration we've ever done. +[2461.56 --> 2462.46] I'm sorry. +[2462.68 --> 2463.32] I'm sorry. +[2465.14 --> 2466.90] But I think we got the point across. +[2467.00 --> 2467.64] We like Squarespace. +[2467.90 --> 2468.40] We use it. +[2468.44 --> 2469.14] It's good stuff. +[2469.14 --> 2470.24] You guys should try it too. +[2470.34 --> 2475.50] In fact, Squarespace, out of all of our sponsors, is I think the one that I got the most positive +[2475.50 --> 2477.28] feedback about last time. +[2477.40 --> 2481.16] I asked people to tell us about their positive experiences with our sponsors during the show. +[2481.44 --> 2485.94] My biggest problem now, legitimately, is people will, like a buddy of mine, I'm not going +[2485.94 --> 2488.76] to drop names, but a buddy of mine is starting a tax service. +[2488.94 --> 2490.10] So you can do your taxes for you. +[2490.36 --> 2490.38] Yeah. +[2490.50 --> 2490.70] What not, what not. +[2490.84 --> 2492.72] Should I be leaving my Squarespace lower third? +[2492.80 --> 2494.14] Are you still talking about Squarespace? +[2494.14 --> 2494.42] Yeah. +[2494.86 --> 2496.94] A buddy of mine started doing a tax service thing. +[2497.02 --> 2498.62] He's like, hey, can I get you to help me with my website? +[2499.08 --> 2499.62] I was like, sure. +[2499.80 --> 2500.06] Yeah. +[2501.00 --> 2502.26] Then like, look into it. +[2502.28 --> 2503.24] He's hosting on GoDaddy. +[2503.36 --> 2504.44] I was like, oh, okay. +[2504.62 --> 2505.62] Well, we can move your domain. +[2505.94 --> 2507.02] Oh, no. +[2507.12 --> 2508.04] You have a WordPress site. +[2508.42 --> 2510.46] And you bought a year of hosting from GoDaddy. +[2510.46 --> 2512.56] And I'm like, well, it looks pretty good. +[2512.64 --> 2513.42] Can you use the template? +[2513.56 --> 2516.58] And then things just start breaking all over the place. +[2516.66 --> 2523.02] And I'm just like, I guess we can revisit this in a year when your current subscription +[2523.02 --> 2523.44] dies. +[2523.70 --> 2524.44] And then we'll move to Squarespace. +[2524.62 --> 2527.28] And at that time, it's such an obvious solution. +[2527.40 --> 2527.94] It really is. +[2528.16 --> 2529.76] Because it's easier for me. +[2529.90 --> 2530.56] That's my thing. +[2531.28 --> 2535.96] Because it's so much easier for me to set up a Squarespace site than it is a WordPress +[2535.96 --> 2536.34] site. +[2536.58 --> 2538.42] I know, because you set up our WordPress site. +[2538.52 --> 2539.56] It was a total nightmare. +[2539.56 --> 2540.96] Well, because I'm not a designer. +[2541.12 --> 2542.86] It worked when I was messing with it. +[2543.02 --> 2544.56] It just, there was nothing on it. +[2546.40 --> 2549.06] So that's one of the things that's easier about Squarespace as well. +[2549.30 --> 2549.50] Yeah. +[2549.68 --> 2552.04] You don't have to be a designer to make it look good. +[2553.06 --> 2553.72] All right. +[2553.82 --> 2556.38] So moving into our next topic here, guys. +[2556.56 --> 2558.74] I think that was our longest Squarespace integration ever. +[2558.74 --> 2561.54] Hopefully we made up for it with quantity over quality. +[2562.32 --> 2564.20] It's all about that over here. +[2565.40 --> 2566.30] Ah, yes. +[2566.30 --> 2572.02] Apple patents what appears to be a mount for swappable phone lenses. +[2572.76 --> 2575.26] This is legitimately exciting. +[2575.50 --> 2582.64] Because one of the biggest challenges to making an awesome phone on a camera is the sheer physics. +[2582.82 --> 2583.94] An awesome camera on a phone. +[2584.28 --> 2584.66] Whatever. +[2585.10 --> 2586.20] Or phone on a camera. +[2586.30 --> 2586.98] I don't care. +[2586.98 --> 2589.96] I'm okay with something like a Galaxy camera. +[2589.96 --> 2590.44] Yeah, yeah. +[2590.44 --> 2591.94] That it says a phone on a camera. +[2592.12 --> 2593.58] So just calm your boobs. +[2594.78 --> 2598.16] Boobs is a much nicer word for web streaming than tits. +[2598.66 --> 2600.06] It's an unappealing word. +[2600.22 --> 2601.74] So that it didn't actually save anything at all. +[2601.74 --> 2602.96] You backed me into a corner. +[2603.14 --> 2603.60] No, I didn't. +[2603.66 --> 2605.10] By laughing at my use of the word boobs. +[2605.10 --> 2612.80] Anyway, one of the problems with creating an excellent camera on a phone is the fact that consumers demand thinner and thinner devices. +[2613.44 --> 2614.04] But do they? +[2615.04 --> 2616.42] I don't actually really think so. +[2616.52 --> 2617.56] I kind of like it. +[2618.42 --> 2620.30] Have you seen an iPad Air? +[2620.68 --> 2622.24] But is it really driving stuff that much? +[2622.30 --> 2623.68] Well, that's an iPad, not a phone. +[2623.74 --> 2624.52] It's like sexy. +[2624.70 --> 2628.18] But the upcoming iPhone 6 is rumored to be air thin. +[2628.52 --> 2632.46] I think it might get to the point where it's like too thin and becomes awkward. +[2632.46 --> 2638.52] I think that when we reach that point, I will not reach that point yet. +[2638.64 --> 2640.26] And you will because you have sausage fingers. +[2640.38 --> 2641.64] I'm already at that point. +[2642.76 --> 2653.16] Anyway, one of the biggest challenges is that there simply isn't enough thickness to properly create a lens system that can do all the things they want it to do. +[2653.26 --> 2659.70] Optical image stabilization, putting a big sensor behind it so you can get really nice depth of field effects when you're taking pictures. +[2659.70 --> 2666.70] And if Apple can get around this by going, okay, look, we're going to have the stock lens on there and that'll do what it does. +[2666.82 --> 2671.78] And we can do all the software processing in the world and ultimately there will be a limit to what can be done. +[2671.78 --> 2680.10] But we're going to build in a standard so you could actually put much larger or much more complicated or more specialized lenses. +[2680.10 --> 2683.38] Because that's a big part of the problem too is that it's one size fits all. +[2683.46 --> 2685.38] And you can put specialized lenses on your phone. +[2686.42 --> 2691.20] I mean, the iPhone is already, according to, oh crap, what site was it? +[2691.36 --> 2692.84] I think it's in our notes. +[2692.90 --> 2693.74] I think it's in our notes. +[2693.90 --> 2694.56] Are you talking about the camera? +[2694.56 --> 2701.32] Yeah, Flickr's data shows that the iPhone is already a more popular camera than anything that Canon or Nikon makes. +[2701.88 --> 2705.84] So if you could take better pictures with it, a lot of people would be pretty darn interested in that. +[2705.84 --> 2707.02] That makes a lot of sense though. +[2707.42 --> 2709.32] Because then just more uploads are going to come from a phone. +[2709.56 --> 2710.06] It's easier. +[2710.44 --> 2710.60] Yeah. +[2710.84 --> 2711.36] Oh yeah, I know. +[2711.50 --> 2712.22] Like I get it. +[2712.30 --> 2712.48] Yeah. +[2712.58 --> 2718.70] I'm just saying, if what is obviously a popular photo taking device gets a significant upgrade in image quality. +[2718.70 --> 2720.34] And I know a lot of people though buy these lenses. +[2720.60 --> 2723.10] And you could charge a lot for them and they would still buy them. +[2723.10 --> 2723.38] Yes. +[2723.48 --> 2725.00] Because like it's just going to be so much easier. +[2725.00 --> 2728.52] Well, it's the same shutter bugs that are spending a lot on other lenses. +[2728.62 --> 2729.04] No, exactly. +[2729.30 --> 2729.52] Yeah. +[2729.72 --> 2733.80] And even people that aren't necessarily getting really high-end nice cameras. +[2734.04 --> 2736.42] Because maybe they can't afford the whole package. +[2736.60 --> 2739.04] But take a lot of photos and enjoy taking their photos. +[2739.16 --> 2740.56] Could buy a lens for their phone. +[2740.68 --> 2742.96] Which isn't buying into a whole different ecosystem. +[2743.16 --> 2744.62] And probably a lot cheaper in the end. +[2744.68 --> 2746.14] Even if that one lens is really expensive. +[2747.06 --> 2749.48] I could definitely see quite a few people that I'm friends with. +[2749.86 --> 2750.94] Like the Instagram nuts. +[2751.70 --> 2752.06] Yep. +[2752.44 --> 2752.98] Getting this. +[2753.10 --> 2754.14] Super smart move. +[2754.24 --> 2755.14] And I super love it. +[2756.32 --> 2756.72] Alright. +[2756.72 --> 2760.76] So this has caused waves this week. +[2761.34 --> 2764.52] Posted originally on the forum by Colonel Mortis. +[2765.04 --> 2769.36] Mozilla's CEO resigns over anti-gay marriage controversy. +[2769.98 --> 2780.16] So what happened was he made a $1,000 donation to an anti-gay marriage ballot proposal in California. +[2780.38 --> 2781.04] Proposition 8. +[2781.58 --> 2781.86] Yes. +[2781.86 --> 2785.20] So this was a personal contribution. +[2785.20 --> 2798.66] Not like he was using Mozilla's resources in order to contribute to a political cause that, however you may feel about it, is legal right now. +[2798.66 --> 2799.86] It's technically, yeah. +[2799.86 --> 2800.56] It is. +[2800.64 --> 2802.06] Well, it's not even technically legal. +[2802.06 --> 2802.74] It's legal. +[2803.26 --> 2804.38] Whatever you might think about it. +[2804.38 --> 2806.22] You're allowed to contribute to... +[2806.22 --> 2807.44] Oh, I thought you were saying... +[2807.44 --> 2807.92] Okay, never mind. +[2808.00 --> 2808.70] I thought I was talking about something else. +[2808.76 --> 2808.90] Keep going. +[2808.90 --> 2809.42] No, no, no, no, no. +[2809.42 --> 2810.26] Like, you're... +[2810.26 --> 2817.82] So you're allowed to contribute to causes that you believe in, whatever other people might think about you doing that. +[2819.32 --> 2820.64] That's a free speech thing. +[2820.96 --> 2821.28] Yes. +[2821.28 --> 2825.18] So we all know what resigned means. +[2825.18 --> 2832.38] I mean, three other board members resigned around the time that he was appointed CEO. +[2832.80 --> 2833.56] We already know this. +[2834.02 --> 2834.04] Before. +[2834.04 --> 2836.90] Before this whole thing went down. +[2837.42 --> 2839.52] So we know that. +[2839.76 --> 2849.50] We know that there's no official word that those resignations were directly related to this or his views or him being appointed CEO. +[2849.50 --> 2850.60] I think it was before he even was... +[2850.60 --> 2852.84] Yeah, it was before he was publicly announced as CEO. +[2852.98 --> 2853.16] Yes. +[2853.16 --> 2854.18] When they resigned. +[2854.42 --> 2855.44] It was right around that time. +[2855.54 --> 2855.70] Yeah. +[2857.34 --> 2861.38] So I would like to hear from you guys. +[2861.38 --> 2882.94] If we, you know, hired a new employee, for example, and we were to discover that that employee participated in an anti-gay marriage protest, or even a pro-gay marriage protest, can we put pressure on them to resign? +[2883.04 --> 2884.60] Is that the right thing to do? +[2885.12 --> 2887.04] So I'm going to create a straw pool here. +[2887.04 --> 2893.22] I think these are going to be two different situations, because there's two different arguments I can think of. +[2893.28 --> 2897.12] Let's go with they participate in an anti-gay marriage protest. +[2897.86 --> 2899.30] So let's go with the one scenario. +[2899.32 --> 2900.58] Well, it's a straw pool, so you could have different options. +[2900.98 --> 2902.04] No, let's just go with one. +[2902.16 --> 2902.64] Okay, sure. +[2902.64 --> 2903.24] Let's go with one to start. +[2903.48 --> 2906.96] On the employee to leave the company. +[2907.70 --> 2908.98] Okay, so one. +[2909.60 --> 2911.28] Answer one is yes. +[2911.28 --> 2918.06] Answer two is, um, no, I guess. +[2919.92 --> 2921.52] I mean, is that about all there is to it? +[2922.20 --> 2924.38] I was trying to find something in between there. +[2924.38 --> 2925.36] I was trying to come up with something else, too. +[2926.70 --> 2928.66] She's like, uh, no. +[2929.96 --> 2931.88] Okay, so I'm going to post this a few times. +[2932.16 --> 2932.78] You know what, guys? +[2932.84 --> 2934.44] There's two things that come in conflict with this already. +[2934.50 --> 2935.16] Hold on, hold on, hold on. +[2935.20 --> 2935.88] I'm going to go ahead. +[2935.94 --> 2937.90] I'm going to put the chat in slow mode temporarily. +[2938.14 --> 2938.68] That's probably good. +[2938.68 --> 2944.12] Just so that my links don't get lost or covered in the floods of other links that aren't related to it. +[2944.48 --> 2944.84] Right? +[2945.24 --> 2945.36] Okay. +[2945.36 --> 2946.34] Guys, remind me. +[2946.72 --> 2947.54] Like, tweet me or something. +[2947.66 --> 2950.28] Remind me to go ahead and take it out of slow mode after. +[2950.76 --> 2951.66] Yeah, that's a good point. +[2951.74 --> 2952.72] We might definitely forget. +[2952.96 --> 2953.06] Yeah. +[2953.06 --> 2955.04] So there's two slight problems with this already. +[2955.14 --> 2958.32] One, he's not going to be in, like, a CEO position. +[2959.12 --> 2959.74] That's true. +[2960.14 --> 2963.48] So that's a big difference, especially when you're looking at a company. +[2963.48 --> 2969.08] Because if he's not running the company, his personal views probably wouldn't influence the company as strongly. +[2969.44 --> 2969.54] Yeah. +[2969.54 --> 2976.92] So you've got that situation, no matter what, this is, these sides that I'm trying to bring in are completely not related to the opinion. +[2977.08 --> 2978.94] It's just, like, differences in the situation. +[2979.78 --> 2984.92] And the other one still ties into how publicly available that person is. +[2985.06 --> 2988.30] If you become the CEO of Mozilla, everyone knows who you are. +[2988.46 --> 2989.94] Everyone's going to look into who you are. +[2989.94 --> 2992.56] It's like when the new guy took over Microsoft. +[2992.94 --> 2993.04] Yep. +[2993.30 --> 2993.62] Oh, yeah. +[2993.62 --> 2995.40] There was a massive thing of everyone, like... +[2995.40 --> 2996.78] Tearing apart his entire history. +[2996.90 --> 2997.30] Exactly. +[2997.48 --> 2999.24] And that's going to happen when you take over a company. +[2999.36 --> 3006.24] That's not going to happen when you become an employee of a company unless you're someone like Carmack who joins Oculus. +[3006.62 --> 3007.84] And then everyone's like, yeah. +[3008.06 --> 3010.80] But even then, I mean, he's a CTO, if I recall correctly. +[3011.28 --> 3011.58] Yep. +[3011.72 --> 3012.38] Science officer or something. +[3012.38 --> 3013.08] So he's not a CEO. +[3013.08 --> 3014.94] Like, he's in an executive position. +[3014.94 --> 3016.08] Yes, he's extremely high up. +[3016.20 --> 3016.30] Yeah. +[3016.44 --> 3018.82] So it's very different, again. +[3018.82 --> 3020.18] What even is this? +[3020.64 --> 3021.46] Oh, okay. +[3021.70 --> 3022.14] That's annoying. +[3023.36 --> 3024.00] Yeah. +[3024.10 --> 3027.20] So there's just some differences to what we're looking at now. +[3028.04 --> 3028.68] Okay. +[3028.78 --> 3039.70] Well, this is interesting because on our forum, a lot of the discussion has been around sort of where one person's rights end and another person's begin. +[3039.70 --> 3053.68] And that, to me, is a very important part of this issue because a lot of the arguments being made are, well, okay, what if he was pro-gay marriage? +[3053.68 --> 3060.40] Then is it okay to persecute someone for that if that's not something that the other people within the company believe? +[3060.50 --> 3076.74] Like, should we allow something that is effectively still, whether we agree with it or not, still a religious freedom of freedom of religion, freedom of free speech issue, whether it should be or not, still happens to be that. +[3076.74 --> 3084.38] Should we allow that to affect someone's employability any more than we should allow someone being gay, for example, to affect someone's employability? +[3084.90 --> 3086.18] It's interesting. +[3086.30 --> 3091.66] One thing that I want to bring up before I even go into this, which I'll get into that in a second, is that I was very proud of the forum. +[3091.66 --> 3094.26] I didn't have to take this thread down. +[3094.28 --> 3096.46] Yeah, 13 pages, and we didn't have to take it down. +[3096.58 --> 3101.04] And there was each side of the debate, and neither side of the debate pulled out nuclear bombs. +[3101.14 --> 3101.64] Which is good. +[3101.72 --> 3102.60] Which is very good. +[3102.64 --> 3103.92] Because then we have to take it away. +[3104.14 --> 3110.44] Yeah, and that happens sometimes, but everyone was really good in this thread, so thank you everybody for having a very civil discussion. +[3110.80 --> 3111.30] That was awesome. +[3113.40 --> 3114.94] But I don't know. +[3115.26 --> 3117.70] I like the free speech angle. +[3117.84 --> 3119.74] I think we should stay out of everyone's thing. +[3119.74 --> 3124.44] And one thing that I couldn't find anywhere, but this was in support of Proposition 8, I guess. +[3124.60 --> 3125.70] So wasn't that a long time ago? +[3126.88 --> 3127.78] I think so, yeah. +[3128.02 --> 3134.90] So someone had to, like, dig back and find something that this guy did a long time ago and pressure him for it. +[3135.40 --> 3136.70] Like, that's, I don't know. +[3138.16 --> 3143.34] You'd think that acquiring a new position, your actions would now be based on what you do now. +[3144.24 --> 3148.22] But is it ever really as simple as being judged by our work? +[3148.78 --> 3149.22] No. +[3149.74 --> 3150.36] Of course not. +[3150.38 --> 3150.92] But still. +[3151.12 --> 3162.70] I mean, I get messages all the time where people say they love to watch our content because they appreciate, like, what down-to-earth guys we are about whatever it is that we're doing. +[3162.78 --> 3168.14] Whether it's, you know, a CPU or whether it's even some of the commercial productions that we've done. +[3168.14 --> 3171.30] They say they watch it because they want to support us and they like us. +[3171.30 --> 3182.74] Is Mozilla handicapping themselves by putting someone who is, as far as internet culture goes, very unlikable in a leadership position? +[3182.74 --> 3183.64] And so hold on. +[3183.74 --> 3183.76] Hold on. +[3183.76 --> 3184.70] Hold that thought. +[3184.80 --> 3185.36] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3185.36 --> 3187.70] I want you to have that thought, but I just need a moment here. +[3187.70 --> 3189.94] So I created a new straw poll, guys. +[3189.94 --> 3195.24] And this one is, what if the employee was in a leadership position? +[3195.56 --> 3197.96] And I'd like to see how the answers compare. +[3198.96 --> 3199.76] Here we go. +[3199.76 --> 3202.38] So if they were just an employee. +[3202.92 --> 3209.86] Okay, so my point was, another thing that has to be taken into account here is that Mozilla is an extremely public company. +[3210.28 --> 3210.44] Yep. +[3210.48 --> 3211.94] They talk about everything they're doing. +[3212.10 --> 3213.66] And we don't mean public like publicly traded. +[3213.82 --> 3213.96] No. +[3214.12 --> 3215.00] Like open. +[3215.38 --> 3218.10] Yeah, and, like, they try to bring in the community as much as possible. +[3218.34 --> 3218.56] Sorry. +[3218.66 --> 3222.16] And they take donations, which is another big part of it. +[3222.16 --> 3231.30] So I've seen people, I didn't necessarily see this on the forum, but I've seen people saying, like, is my donation part of that amount of money that was donated to that? +[3231.34 --> 3241.12] Because even if it's his personal funds, if he's being paid by Mozilla, then you could make the argument that if you don't support what the individuals do. +[3242.46 --> 3243.98] Yeah, so that became interesting. +[3243.98 --> 3255.36] That got fairly shot down because a way bigger part of Mozilla's income is, like, from Google because of Google search being the default, not from donations. +[3255.72 --> 3259.08] They don't make nearly as much on donations as a lot of people, I think, think they do. +[3259.22 --> 3261.00] They make a lot more off of that Google search. +[3262.18 --> 3264.40] And, like, there's a lot going back and forth because of that. +[3264.50 --> 3268.60] But when you're in a company like this, every single move you have is scrutinized. +[3268.80 --> 3269.00] Yeah. +[3269.12 --> 3270.70] And, like, he probably should have known that. +[3270.70 --> 3274.30] But then again, he wasn't CEO then, so he probably didn't care. +[3274.94 --> 3275.46] All right. +[3275.50 --> 3278.82] Let's go ahead and, oh, I can't find it. +[3278.92 --> 3279.36] There it is. +[3279.48 --> 3281.32] Let's go ahead and have a look at the results for that one. +[3281.68 --> 3282.00] Okay. +[3282.06 --> 3288.22] So we can see that you guys are giving us very, very different answers this time. +[3288.22 --> 3290.34] So if the employee is in a leadership position. +[3290.76 --> 3291.84] So just an employee. +[3292.74 --> 3298.40] So, you know, like, if we were to hire someone that does something that I don't think is a good idea. +[3298.40 --> 3302.22] Like, say, for example, I don't think smoking is a great idea. +[3302.54 --> 3310.20] As an employer, I'm not convenienced by allowing someone to take smoke breaks, which I am legally obligated to allow them to do. +[3310.30 --> 3311.74] We don't even have anyone that does. +[3312.36 --> 3312.68] I don't think. +[3312.70 --> 3314.08] We have one person who smokes occasionally. +[3314.82 --> 3315.22] Occasionally. +[3315.36 --> 3315.50] Yeah. +[3315.50 --> 3315.92] Not that often. +[3316.04 --> 3316.44] I'm just saying. +[3316.44 --> 3327.82] So I, as someone who's in a leadership position, it seems like most of you agree that I should not be allowed to discriminate based on something that I don't agree with. +[3328.36 --> 3329.84] And I agree with you guys. +[3330.08 --> 3330.10] Yeah. +[3330.34 --> 3330.86] I was just going to say. +[3330.86 --> 3352.60] But it looks like a huge number more of you, about another 25% of you or more, say that if that person is in a leadership position, whatever leadership means to you, whether that is the effect it has on the culture of the office or the company, or whether that is the external visibility of what they're doing, that, yes, it matters. +[3352.92 --> 3354.92] And that person should be pressured to leave. +[3354.92 --> 3357.26] To be completely honest, I back that a little bit. +[3357.68 --> 3359.92] I don't know if I back it 100%, but I back it a little bit. +[3359.96 --> 3363.88] Because, like, in this position, you're now jeopardizing the entire company. +[3364.28 --> 3364.50] Yeah. +[3364.50 --> 3365.46] It's something that you've done. +[3365.54 --> 3365.68] Yeah. +[3365.96 --> 3367.34] I mean, we've had conversations. +[3367.46 --> 3375.50] I mean, you guys don't see this on WAN Show because we're not going to have it out about things like the direction of Linus Media Group in front of you guys. +[3375.88 --> 3380.50] But we've had conversations where there's something you don't like or there's something you don't agree with. +[3381.36 --> 3382.72] Or you or anyone else. +[3382.72 --> 3383.62] Or anyone else. +[3383.62 --> 3386.48] Like, I like to feel like I'm very approachable here. +[3386.74 --> 3390.98] And if someone doesn't like something, they can say, Linus, that is a bloody stupid idea. +[3391.28 --> 3391.62] And we do. +[3392.34 --> 3399.78] And you do exercise that privilege, not a right, that privilege does get used. +[3399.94 --> 3401.22] And I think that's important. +[3401.22 --> 3421.26] And I think that me being in a position where I can be questioned and I want people to be on the same page as me creates a culture here where we agree and we work together as opposed to feeling like if we're working with this person, we are furthering something that we don't believe in. +[3421.26 --> 3430.64] And I think that if we were to hire someone who doesn't fit with our culture, that is a big problem. +[3430.78 --> 3437.56] And I actually think that's one of the reasons why we can be so productive is even if there's been certain things that we've done that I don't agree with. +[3437.56 --> 3441.10] I think there's been certain things that we've done that everyone in the company hasn't agreed with on some level. +[3441.82 --> 3443.64] But we always find good compromises. +[3444.10 --> 3444.26] Yeah. +[3444.42 --> 3446.42] And we always find something that works really well. +[3446.42 --> 3457.30] But the problem is that to me, the only compromise on the gay marriage issue is to just ignore it. +[3458.34 --> 3458.44] Yeah. +[3458.78 --> 3460.44] But then that's not a problem that we really have. +[3460.44 --> 3462.06] Then that's not a solution at all. +[3462.44 --> 3464.90] And neither party will be happy at all. +[3465.02 --> 3467.02] And that's not a compromise to me. +[3467.28 --> 3472.04] But then as a company, you're standing is probably going to have to be ignoring it. +[3472.28 --> 3472.54] Right. +[3472.54 --> 3476.74] But if you rely on donations, then you're in a bit of a strange position. +[3476.74 --> 3477.34] But then they don't... +[3477.34 --> 3478.80] Oh, I see what you mean by ignoring it. +[3478.90 --> 3484.08] But then it ties in because they're not ignoring it at that point. +[3484.42 --> 3484.52] Oh. +[3484.52 --> 3485.22] Maybe the... +[3485.22 --> 3488.56] What I meant more was the solution to the problem at all. +[3488.60 --> 3489.24] I now figured that. +[3489.24 --> 3491.86] Like if we just let people do whatever they want and ignore what they're doing. +[3491.94 --> 3492.12] Yeah. +[3492.24 --> 3495.36] I thought you meant more like the company ignoring it externally. +[3495.96 --> 3500.40] Because I think as a company, you need to kind of back off of these things because it's very personal opinion. +[3500.40 --> 3502.96] And your company is made up of a large group of people. +[3503.88 --> 3505.16] And speaking outward... +[3505.16 --> 3506.92] Unless that's the whole goal of your company. +[3507.74 --> 3509.54] Then that makes a lot more sense in my opinion. +[3511.04 --> 3513.10] It comes down to how you want to run everything. +[3513.26 --> 3514.40] Like isn't it Chick-fil-A? +[3515.10 --> 3515.46] Yeah. +[3515.46 --> 3516.66] It's really religious or whatever. +[3516.86 --> 3517.02] Yeah. +[3517.10 --> 3519.50] But then you're going into that knowing that that's what you're getting. +[3519.80 --> 3519.90] Yeah. +[3519.94 --> 3526.00] A part of this problem too is Firefox has always been very open and accepting of everything. +[3526.32 --> 3526.54] Yeah. +[3526.54 --> 3529.04] And then that position is not open and accepting. +[3529.98 --> 3531.66] So then it goes against the companies. +[3531.98 --> 3534.74] Like what people envision the company as. +[3535.04 --> 3536.96] Not necessarily what the company has said they are. +[3537.30 --> 3538.76] But what people envision the company as. +[3538.92 --> 3539.46] And what something... +[3539.46 --> 3541.54] Like everyone views these big companies as people. +[3542.00 --> 3542.22] Yep. +[3542.74 --> 3544.84] I think we even get viewed that way a lot. +[3545.16 --> 3546.04] And you know what? +[3546.12 --> 3547.26] Honestly, yeah. +[3547.34 --> 3549.54] I might create another straw poll for this. +[3549.86 --> 3553.24] Because we don't take a public stance on almost anything. +[3553.88 --> 3554.12] No. +[3554.12 --> 3558.78] I don't know that we've ever taken a public stance on really anything. +[3559.00 --> 3560.30] Unless it has to do with computer hardware. +[3560.44 --> 3560.58] Yeah. +[3560.62 --> 3561.86] Unless it has to do with computer hardware. +[3562.08 --> 3567.20] But my response to people when they've asked me, you know, what do you think about, you +[3567.20 --> 3568.18] know, abortion? +[3568.36 --> 3569.24] Or what do you think about this? +[3569.26 --> 3570.32] Or what do you think about that? +[3570.80 --> 3572.72] Is, look, I'm a tech personality. +[3573.14 --> 3575.24] My personal life is my personal life. +[3575.24 --> 3578.24] And then when I'm at work, I talk about tech. +[3578.36 --> 3580.76] And it is my job to be opinionated about tech. +[3580.88 --> 3584.56] But it is not my job to be opinionated about all this stuff. +[3584.94 --> 3589.74] And the response when people press me is, look, I'm not an expert. +[3590.32 --> 3593.84] I actually don't know the ins and outs of a lot of these things. +[3593.84 --> 3597.60] Like, don't know enough about any of them, including me. +[3597.68 --> 3602.40] And I'm not, you know, I'm not personally acquainted with every person who's ever been +[3602.40 --> 3609.64] afflicted with any of these terrible situations that can occur on either side of the fence. +[3610.28 --> 3613.86] So, and I'm not talking specifically about gay marriage. +[3613.90 --> 3614.64] I just mean in general. +[3614.74 --> 3616.90] We don't really take a stance on things that aren't technology. +[3617.50 --> 3620.86] So, would you like us to? +[3621.54 --> 3622.74] Is the question. +[3623.40 --> 3623.76] No. +[3625.82 --> 3627.36] I'm going to go vote on this. +[3627.38 --> 3628.44] You can vote on the struggle. +[3629.40 --> 3630.40] You can vote on the struggle. +[3630.50 --> 3632.04] This is an interesting discussion topic. +[3632.48 --> 3632.74] Yep. +[3636.12 --> 3637.62] I'm definitely clicking no, though. +[3637.70 --> 3638.54] Because that's just scary. +[3638.54 --> 3639.28] Oh, my God. +[3639.36 --> 3640.22] It's not in slow mode anymore. +[3640.22 --> 3641.06] I'm turning slow mode back on. +[3641.14 --> 3642.06] I'm turning slow mode back on. +[3642.28 --> 3642.64] No. +[3642.84 --> 3643.00] Okay. +[3643.08 --> 3644.16] So, guys, here's the link. +[3644.58 --> 3645.70] Slow mode is back on. +[3645.76 --> 3646.64] I'm spamming the link. +[3646.64 --> 3649.00] So, that y'all can see it there. +[3649.10 --> 3651.12] And for those of you who are replying in the Twitch chat. +[3651.20 --> 3652.48] Guys, I'm not looking at that. +[3653.04 --> 3653.88] It doesn't count. +[3654.02 --> 3655.52] You have to reply to the straw poll. +[3655.72 --> 3655.98] How is it? +[3656.32 --> 3657.64] It doesn't count like it all. +[3657.72 --> 3659.12] How are we supposed to do things here? +[3659.56 --> 3659.94] All right. +[3660.18 --> 3664.56] So, let's go ahead and move on to our next topic while we wait for the replies to roll in on that one. +[3664.84 --> 3666.42] Which happens to be technology! +[3667.20 --> 3667.52] Hooray! +[3668.42 --> 3672.78] I forgot to update this with all the points. +[3673.00 --> 3673.74] I was kind of wondering. +[3673.74 --> 3674.10] Shield. +[3674.62 --> 3674.98] Temporarily. +[3675.14 --> 3676.30] Wait, did we talk about this last week? +[3676.94 --> 3678.12] I thought we talked about this last week. +[3678.20 --> 3679.02] I'm pretty sure we did. +[3679.16 --> 3680.90] I was assuming you had something else. +[3681.04 --> 3682.66] Oh, I was going to talk about it. +[3682.90 --> 3684.68] So, GameStream working remotely. +[3684.92 --> 3685.84] I was going to try it. +[3685.84 --> 3685.90] I haven't had a chance yet. +[3685.90 --> 3687.72] This happens with some of your topics sometimes. +[3687.84 --> 3688.14] Yeah, I know. +[3688.14 --> 3688.86] You're just like, what? +[3689.06 --> 3690.72] I don't know what this is about. +[3690.72 --> 3692.26] I know, I know, I know, I know. +[3692.60 --> 3695.00] Okay, so I meant to try Remote GameStream. +[3695.12 --> 3696.20] I haven't had a chance yet. +[3696.38 --> 3696.64] Okay. +[3696.72 --> 3698.58] I've been too busy playing Bravely Default. +[3698.64 --> 3699.46] I'll try this weekend. +[3699.54 --> 3703.42] My problem is finding places that, like, because my parents have a crappy internet connection +[3703.42 --> 3705.96] because we're, like, borderline Farmville. +[3706.12 --> 3706.46] All right. +[3706.68 --> 3711.54] So, speaking of me taking a stance on technology junk. +[3711.70 --> 3712.12] Boom! +[3712.44 --> 3713.44] Stance being taken. +[3713.44 --> 3716.80] I didn't even know I was clicking on this link because it was mislabeled. +[3717.66 --> 3720.50] This is a stupid solution. +[3721.06 --> 3721.30] Okay? +[3722.38 --> 3725.02] This is USB 3.1 Type-C. +[3725.70 --> 3727.38] And I will give them this. +[3728.60 --> 3734.20] Like, this is not finalized, but it's final enough that they're willing to show renders now. +[3734.56 --> 3735.76] And I will give them this. +[3736.06 --> 3739.04] USB 3.1 Type-C is very beautiful. +[3739.50 --> 3740.52] It's very elegant. +[3740.52 --> 3748.68] It is even smaller than Micro B and is going to give you up to 10 gigabit per second connectivity. +[3749.12 --> 3749.70] Wait, wait, wait. +[3750.12 --> 3750.56] Congratulations! +[3751.12 --> 3754.76] Everything he's doing right now is when you're, like, walking up to the guy in a dining hall +[3754.76 --> 3758.20] and you're hiding the knife and you're trying to, like, shake his hand so you can stab him +[3758.20 --> 3760.78] in the ribs that go right so you can get to the heart. +[3760.90 --> 3763.74] That's what he's, he's carefully walking to the person right now. +[3764.12 --> 3765.42] Now he's going to stab them. +[3766.52 --> 3767.96] What the hell were you thinking? +[3768.34 --> 3769.76] It still doesn't lock. +[3769.76 --> 3773.32] It's still tiny and fragile. +[3773.76 --> 3777.38] I mean, I don't like the lightning connector. +[3777.60 --> 3778.44] It's not perfect. +[3778.60 --> 3779.78] It's still USB 2. +[3779.86 --> 3780.94] I mean, come on, really, Apple? +[3781.26 --> 3782.58] It's still USB 2. +[3782.58 --> 3790.76] But at least it managed to be less fragile than probably the worst connector on anything, +[3790.88 --> 3794.30] any modern piece of electronics, which is micro USB. +[3794.50 --> 3800.88] We're talking about something that goes beyond just, you know, plugging it in on your nightstand +[3800.88 --> 3801.32] every night. +[3801.32 --> 3804.84] Because cell phones, they don't last all day. +[3804.84 --> 3805.12] Okay. +[3805.22 --> 3809.70] So a lot of the time, if you look at it and you go, okay, this connector is rated for, +[3809.80 --> 3810.80] I forget how many it is. +[3810.84 --> 3812.02] I think it's like 3,000. +[3812.10 --> 3812.40] 10,000? +[3812.40 --> 3813.82] Or 5,000 or something like that. +[3813.90 --> 3814.40] I think it's 10,000. +[3814.40 --> 3815.40] No, I don't know about the new one. +[3815.62 --> 3816.32] But micro USB. +[3816.46 --> 3816.52] Oh, oh, oh. +[3816.52 --> 3817.36] Micro USB 2. +[3817.36 --> 3820.32] It's rated for 3,000 or 5,000 or 8,000 or something like that. +[3820.36 --> 3822.86] Something on the order of, like, not tens of thousands. +[3823.50 --> 3831.14] So we're talking, like, a perfect scenario where, like, this happens. +[3831.44 --> 3832.86] And then you, like, put it down. +[3833.94 --> 3834.14] Okay? +[3834.22 --> 3835.84] That's not how these things get used. +[3835.84 --> 3836.14] Never. +[3836.26 --> 3838.34] You carry this every day. +[3838.58 --> 3840.88] You're carrying portable battery banks. +[3840.96 --> 3842.72] How popular are those these days? +[3842.72 --> 3847.46] You carry portable battery banks around and you kind of go, oh, crap, I'm down to 5% battery. +[3847.62 --> 3850.50] And you jam the thing in there and you're like, oh, what am I going to do with this? +[3850.52 --> 3851.42] I have to be on a call. +[3851.66 --> 3854.98] So you put, like, a portable battery in your shirt pocket and you got your phone here and +[3854.98 --> 3856.44] the connector's hanging off of it. +[3856.86 --> 3859.38] That is why small connectors are terrible. +[3859.66 --> 3865.14] And that is why we needed something more robust, not just something that is reversible. +[3865.70 --> 3868.72] And there's a render of it on a laptop or something like that. +[3868.72 --> 3875.22] And I hope that wireless charging is going to save me from these broken connectors that +[3875.22 --> 3875.82] are stupid. +[3876.46 --> 3877.10] But there you go. +[3877.18 --> 3879.42] There's a render of what it looks like next to a USB 3 connector. +[3879.72 --> 3880.98] Maybe I'm wrong. +[3881.48 --> 3884.92] Maybe it's the smartest thing ever and it's amazing. +[3885.30 --> 3891.22] But every tiny connector with a ton of pins, that super thin that I've seen so far, looking +[3891.22 --> 3899.20] at you, mini HDMI, is a gigantic piece of garbage that wears out extremely easily. +[3899.78 --> 3903.22] So reversible, great. +[3904.26 --> 3907.00] Not that big of a deal on a micro connector. +[3907.66 --> 3912.38] What am I going to, are we going to replace all the connectors on the back of my computer +[3912.38 --> 3914.26] with these micro connectors? +[3914.38 --> 3916.58] Is that going to be better, having tiny, tiny plugs? +[3916.58 --> 3917.18] Okay. +[3917.78 --> 3919.62] At least I could find it with my finger. +[3919.72 --> 3926.46] How hard is it to, how hard is it to memorize which way the micro USB connector in your phone +[3926.46 --> 3930.34] goes on and put a dot with a marker on the one that goes up or something like that? +[3930.44 --> 3932.90] Like, this is not that big of a deal, reversible. +[3933.06 --> 3934.30] I think reversible is great. +[3934.64 --> 3937.50] I think that is one of the cooler innovations of the lightning connector. +[3937.50 --> 3942.96] But I think that having reversible at the cost of durability, which is another assumption, +[3943.26 --> 3947.46] I can't quite judge it until it arrives, until I hold it in my hands and break one, +[3947.54 --> 3948.88] because I will, in all likelihood. +[3949.20 --> 3949.68] Look at it! +[3950.86 --> 3952.58] Um, I'm done here. +[3952.66 --> 3953.64] Let's talk about my next round. +[3953.64 --> 3955.04] We should do a video when they first release. +[3955.18 --> 3958.52] We should do, like, Linus kills Type-C. +[3958.80 --> 3959.44] All the Type-C connectors. +[3959.44 --> 3965.30] And have, like, a deep, dark torture scene where you just kill a cable. +[3965.30 --> 3968.26] That's kind of creepy, actually. +[3968.60 --> 3969.78] It would be kind of awesome, probably. +[3970.08 --> 3973.72] Because you could make it, like, deep, dark torture scene, but then also funny, so that +[3973.72 --> 3974.44] it loses the edge. +[3974.70 --> 3984.04] Now, I wouldn't actually care that much about micro USB if, um, you know, if wireless charging +[3984.04 --> 3985.10] were more ubiquitous. +[3985.54 --> 3988.94] And this, this is what kind of blew me away. +[3989.10 --> 3990.68] Did you find some of the comments I was talking about? +[3990.68 --> 3991.88] I did, I ended up searching. +[3991.88 --> 3993.48] Okay, I don't remember where they are. +[3993.48 --> 3999.08] But, if wireless charging was more widespread, I actually wouldn't care. +[3999.26 --> 4005.46] Because if I only had to plug it in once every, I don't know, couple of months when +[4005.46 --> 4007.90] I'm trying to load a custom ROM on the phone or something. +[4008.02 --> 4011.08] Like, if that was the only time I ever had to use the connector, fine. +[4011.42 --> 4013.30] Make it as tiny and fragile as possible. +[4013.36 --> 4014.08] I don't care. +[4014.42 --> 4018.04] Because I'm going to be offloading all of my pictures automatically with BitTorrent Sync +[4018.04 --> 4018.38] anyway. +[4018.38 --> 4021.72] I'm going to be syncing all of my songs with some other solution. +[4022.26 --> 4023.16] Well, probably BitTorrent Sync. +[4023.16 --> 4024.04] BitTorrent Sync's awesome. +[4024.16 --> 4024.36] Yeah. +[4024.36 --> 4026.86] I'm going to be doing all of this wirelessly anyway. +[4027.02 --> 4029.72] Give me wireless charging so I don't have to worry about it. +[4030.14 --> 4032.10] And this is, this is what blew me away. +[4032.16 --> 4033.58] Because I've already had a conversation. +[4033.74 --> 4038.48] I already told HTC that I will be slamming the fact that the M8 doesn't have wireless +[4038.48 --> 4039.54] charging in my review. +[4039.58 --> 4040.30] Because it can. +[4040.58 --> 4041.68] It's not the metal backing. +[4041.88 --> 4043.10] It's not really anything. +[4043.20 --> 4045.64] They might have to make it a hair thicker or whatever else. +[4045.86 --> 4047.42] But it could have had wireless charging. +[4047.50 --> 4048.72] Maybe it would have been more expensive to make. +[4048.78 --> 4049.58] All that stuff. +[4049.94 --> 4052.12] But I already told them I'm going to be slamming it. +[4052.22 --> 4054.38] And their response was, does it really matter? +[4055.76 --> 4058.04] And I was like, well, yeah, of course it matters. +[4058.52 --> 4060.14] And he kind of went, well, I don't know. +[4060.18 --> 4060.52] Does it? +[4060.58 --> 4062.68] I mean, lots of other major players don't have it yet. +[4062.74 --> 4064.08] And I'm like, well, yeah. +[4064.08 --> 4070.12] But if you're going to call it a Cadillac ultimate wonderful device phone, and it really +[4070.12 --> 4070.32] is. +[4070.32 --> 4074.58] It's a fantastic phone, then it shouldn't be missing something that phones that cost +[4074.58 --> 4075.72] half as much have. +[4076.02 --> 4081.72] And then I read the comments on this USB article, and I've got people just being like, well, +[4082.08 --> 4083.70] isn't wireless charging slow? +[4084.72 --> 4089.10] I'm like, wireless charging will not replace a cable connection. +[4090.14 --> 4090.80] I'm like, okay. +[4090.80 --> 4092.28] Well, it has for someone in this office already. +[4092.42 --> 4093.80] Yeah, I know that for a fact. +[4094.54 --> 4095.96] Where are some of the other ones? +[4096.12 --> 4097.48] It's a really long comment section. +[4097.64 --> 4098.90] Look where your scroll bar is. +[4098.96 --> 4099.28] Yeah, I know. +[4099.28 --> 4101.70] That's why I couldn't find stuff very quickly. +[4101.88 --> 4105.12] The issue is not the speed, but that it creates more heat loss. +[4105.16 --> 4107.48] And that's bad for this or that. +[4107.60 --> 4113.80] And I had no idea that there was so much negative sentiment towards wireless charging. +[4113.88 --> 4117.62] And I understand HTC's PR guys. +[4117.80 --> 4119.22] It does social media for them, I think. +[4119.22 --> 4120.14] So not PR technically. +[4120.14 --> 4126.14] But I understand his perspective now, because here I am thinking it's obvious that wireless +[4126.14 --> 4130.78] charging is fantastic, and many people are opposed to it. +[4130.78 --> 4134.08] I don't get the people being like, oh, but cables are so much better. +[4134.22 --> 4136.00] It's like, yeah, well, you can use both. +[4136.00 --> 4139.96] Like, Ethernet is amazingly better than wireless. +[4140.68 --> 4144.36] But you like both of them, because they both are better in different situations. +[4144.76 --> 4147.58] Obviously, that's not exactly the same, because for wireless charging, you have to put it on +[4147.58 --> 4148.28] a block or whatever. +[4148.70 --> 4152.66] But if you can just, like, toss your phone somewhere and have it charging immediately +[4152.66 --> 4155.90] instead of fighting with a cable all the time, is that not a good thing? +[4155.90 --> 4159.54] We have someone in the office that I don't think has plugged in his phone since he got +[4159.54 --> 4159.74] it. +[4160.40 --> 4161.38] Because why would he? +[4161.66 --> 4163.46] He just has these wireless charging pads everywhere. +[4163.46 --> 4165.20] They're like $25 on eBay. +[4165.46 --> 4167.84] So he just puts them all over the place, and then he's like, oh, click. +[4169.34 --> 4171.36] Whatever, puts it wherever it charges all the time. +[4171.38 --> 4173.52] So he has one down in the shooting, this is Brandon, he has one down in the shooting +[4173.52 --> 4175.68] area, one at his desk, and one at home. +[4176.00 --> 4178.62] And it's like, whenever he sits down at his desk, boop. +[4179.44 --> 4180.78] Whenever he's filming, boop. +[4180.90 --> 4182.80] His phone's never even close to being dead. +[4183.84 --> 4185.74] But I just had no idea. +[4185.90 --> 4187.40] That people thought it was bad. +[4187.68 --> 4189.70] And to the people saying, you know, what about the heat? +[4189.78 --> 4190.82] What about that it's slow? +[4191.22 --> 4194.24] It's not like it doesn't have a connector on it still! +[4194.70 --> 4195.62] Don't use it! +[4198.56 --> 4200.08] I love our compressor. +[4200.38 --> 4201.06] I didn't even peak. +[4201.48 --> 4201.68] Yeah. +[4201.82 --> 4202.66] It's fantastic. +[4203.06 --> 4204.72] You, like, peaked in real life. +[4204.96 --> 4205.38] Yeah, I know. +[4205.92 --> 4207.84] I was, like, shrieking, and I'm sorry for that. +[4207.94 --> 4208.54] Yeah, whatever. +[4208.74 --> 4211.84] Alright, let's go back to our straw poll. +[4211.92 --> 4212.60] This is interesting. +[4212.96 --> 4215.18] So I always had a feeling this was the case. +[4215.90 --> 4222.66] Only less than 30% of you want us to take a public stance on anything that isn't technology. +[4223.08 --> 4223.80] And you know what? +[4223.86 --> 4224.92] That sounds about right to me. +[4225.02 --> 4225.46] And that's... +[4225.46 --> 4228.18] I don't want us to take a public stance on anything that isn't technology. +[4228.36 --> 4234.22] That's the reason that I've always just completely avoided engaging in any type of conversation +[4234.22 --> 4234.74] on that stuff. +[4234.80 --> 4240.52] Because the way that I see it, we should form opinions about the things that we are experts on. +[4240.64 --> 4245.12] And not even that, but in that kind of stuff, it's a lot more personal opinion-based stuff. +[4245.38 --> 4249.66] And we can give them information, and then they can come up with their own opinion, and +[4249.66 --> 4250.94] that's how it should work anyways. +[4250.94 --> 4256.62] And I guess if someone, you know, dug up my $1,000 contribution to the, you know, End +[4256.62 --> 4260.20] Kittens Foundation or something like that, and was unhappy about it, then... +[4260.20 --> 4263.80] I see you picked, like, the most opposite thing as to what you would ever do. +[4264.52 --> 4265.48] I love kittens. +[4265.48 --> 4270.36] But this is an example of me avoiding giving really... +[4270.36 --> 4271.38] I don't think... +[4271.38 --> 4275.96] It's really funny, because I don't think anyone has any idea what I think about much of anything. +[4277.98 --> 4280.12] Like, I've seen people... +[4280.12 --> 4285.44] I've gotten some really wicked hate mail about how religious I am, and I've gotten some really +[4285.44 --> 4287.64] wicked hate mail about how anti-religious I am. +[4288.46 --> 4292.48] So that's, to me, the indication that people just have no idea. +[4292.48 --> 4296.92] I've never heard you say a religious comment on a show at any point in time ever. +[4297.18 --> 4298.46] So how would someone come up with that? +[4298.50 --> 4299.38] I don't talk about it at all. +[4299.60 --> 4299.74] No. +[4300.12 --> 4302.40] So I think this reinforces... +[4302.40 --> 4304.02] Oh, I'm not even showing them the poll results. +[4304.28 --> 4308.08] Okay, well, this reinforces what I thought, and that's that we just shouldn't get involved +[4308.08 --> 4308.46] in things. +[4308.56 --> 4312.04] So, oh, right, so if someone digs up, like, a contribution, then I guess I would have to +[4312.04 --> 4313.10] deal with the fallout. +[4313.10 --> 4318.86] And I guess if we lost viewers over it, or, you know, lost people wanting to support what +[4318.86 --> 4320.56] we're doing over it, then that would be that. +[4320.56 --> 4324.84] But ultimately, I think that what we do should be about the work that we do. +[4324.96 --> 4329.26] And if you guys want to support what we're doing in terms of reviewing notebooks, or I +[4329.26 --> 4329.94] actually have a... +[4329.94 --> 4333.68] Oh, I have a really cool topic coming up soon that I don't want to talk about, because I'm +[4333.68 --> 4335.84] sure someone else would make a video about it first. +[4335.84 --> 4337.18] Or we're like, it's going to be a short show. +[4337.46 --> 4338.18] I know, right? +[4338.30 --> 4338.54] Nope. +[4338.80 --> 4340.04] No, no short show. +[4341.00 --> 4342.30] Anyway, I think we're done with that. +[4342.48 --> 4343.68] The people have spoken. +[4343.90 --> 4344.98] They don't want to know what I think. +[4345.38 --> 4346.68] And that's fine by me. +[4346.94 --> 4347.98] I completely agree. +[4347.98 --> 4352.26] We weren't going to start doing it anyway, even if people did not. +[4352.30 --> 4352.94] It didn't matter. +[4353.08 --> 4353.70] Just so you know. +[4356.30 --> 4357.48] Amazon Dash. +[4357.82 --> 4358.78] Do you know anything about this? +[4358.84 --> 4359.48] A little bit. +[4359.60 --> 4363.28] I think this was added during the show by Dominic. +[4363.58 --> 4363.96] So, yeah. +[4364.44 --> 4368.68] I think that was added by me, and then I did none of the notes, because I didn't have any +[4368.68 --> 4368.96] time. +[4369.16 --> 4369.38] Wicked. +[4369.38 --> 4371.58] All right, let's talk about Amazon Fire TV then. +[4372.14 --> 4377.24] So this is Amazon's entry into the very crowd. +[4377.24 --> 4377.84] Oh, Fire TV. +[4377.96 --> 4378.94] I thought you were talking about Dash. +[4379.14 --> 4379.32] No. +[4379.54 --> 4380.36] I thought you just said Dash. +[4380.36 --> 4381.68] Yeah, I don't know anything about Dash, though. +[4381.70 --> 4382.58] I didn't look into it. +[4383.00 --> 4384.48] I hadn't seen the topic, so. +[4384.84 --> 4385.22] Oh, okay. +[4385.28 --> 4387.76] I'm going to talk about Fire TV, since I know something about that. +[4387.88 --> 4388.06] All right. +[4388.06 --> 4395.84] So Fire TV is their $99 set-top box, available now, and the reviews are pretty much already +[4395.84 --> 4396.40] in. +[4396.68 --> 4403.34] It is a streaming device, so it supports, you know, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon's video streaming +[4403.34 --> 4404.76] service, of course. +[4405.12 --> 4411.80] It is a relatively powerful device, so it has a quad-core processor and 2 gigs of RAM at $99.99, +[4412.04 --> 4412.60] no less. +[4413.00 --> 4417.48] Mind you, I would make the argument that something like an NVIDIA Shield makes a ton of sense for +[4417.48 --> 4419.78] twice the price, given that it is also portable. +[4420.18 --> 4420.40] Yep. +[4420.68 --> 4421.62] Just throwing that out there. +[4421.88 --> 4423.26] It has wireless N. +[4423.58 --> 4427.98] It has support for, oh yeah, in addition to what I already said, it has support for Vimeo, +[4428.08 --> 4429.86] MLB.tv, and NBA. +[4430.62 --> 4436.20] It is probably, according to user reviews, it looks like it is pretty much the best solution, +[4436.36 --> 4439.88] hands down, for Amazon's own instant video streaming service. +[4439.92 --> 4440.42] I would hope so. +[4440.42 --> 4447.62] But, much like every other streaming device on the market, and holy cow, are there a lot +[4447.62 --> 4452.96] of them, it lacks a certain level of polish at launch and a certain level of integration +[4452.96 --> 4454.84] with popular apps that people are using. +[4455.06 --> 4459.84] So one of the big features that they're talking about here is the voice control that you can +[4459.84 --> 4461.98] use to search for content and play it back. +[4462.46 --> 4465.64] Voice control that only works within Amazon's library. +[4465.64 --> 4466.24] Yeah. +[4466.78 --> 4474.34] But, the word on the street is that it's actually at Netflix's own request that their voice control +[4474.34 --> 4476.30] is not searching Netflix's own library. +[4477.04 --> 4478.80] And that's kind of weird to me. +[4478.80 --> 4478.84] Weird. +[4479.22 --> 4479.30] Yeah. +[4479.30 --> 4481.24] One of the other things that Amazon... +[4481.24 --> 4486.30] So right now, whatever the reason is, that feature is not necessarily... +[4486.30 --> 4487.20] It's kind of half-baked. +[4487.20 --> 4490.44] And then the other thing that's supposed to be really cool about it is it's supposed to +[4490.44 --> 4495.50] help you do all of your comparative shopping without you having to actually look up each +[4495.50 --> 4496.64] of the individual services. +[4496.84 --> 4501.00] So if you want to watch something, then you search for it, and it should tell you where +[4501.00 --> 4502.54] you can watch it for cheapest. +[4502.86 --> 4503.72] You know what's getting frustrating? +[4503.92 --> 4507.94] I don't see this on the supported list here, and as far as I know, there could have been an +[4507.94 --> 4511.86] update or something, but as far as I know, it doesn't work on Chromecast either. +[4512.20 --> 4512.70] But Twitch. +[4513.66 --> 4514.38] Where's Twitch? +[4514.38 --> 4521.72] Twitch is not on the radar for, like, executives who don't understand about mainstreaming. +[4521.96 --> 4524.44] Twitch needs to push and get themselves on the radar. +[4524.88 --> 4525.36] Do they? +[4526.40 --> 4527.88] I want them to be on the radar. +[4528.56 --> 4529.28] I mean, okay. +[4529.70 --> 4534.36] Because right now, it's like the only thing I really watch on my TV is... +[4534.36 --> 4535.42] They have an iOS app. +[4536.04 --> 4537.34] They have an Android app. +[4537.58 --> 4538.64] Okay, so they made those themselves. +[4539.08 --> 4539.32] Yes. +[4539.32 --> 4546.60] So anything running on a platform like iOS or Android, which, let's face it, is lots +[4546.60 --> 4547.08] of stuff. +[4547.28 --> 4547.66] Yeah. +[4548.66 --> 4552.52] With the exception of things like Apple TV, which it still baffles me, can't install apps. +[4554.00 --> 4554.40] Anyway. +[4556.58 --> 4558.74] Doesn't that take care of most people? +[4558.74 --> 4564.92] Yes and no, because a lot of the people that are going to be buying Chromecasts are going +[4564.92 --> 4565.76] to be fairly technical. +[4566.46 --> 4570.22] But they could just push from their Android or their browser other devices. +[4570.22 --> 4570.94] It's not as good, though. +[4571.34 --> 4571.74] Yeah, I know. +[4572.00 --> 4573.40] It's not, like, nearly as good. +[4573.46 --> 4575.12] You need to be able to actually work with the Chromecast. +[4575.44 --> 4579.04] Screen streaming is not nearly as strong as just pushing through the app. +[4579.04 --> 4582.16] I don't, like, come on. +[4582.20 --> 4583.12] I want this to work. +[4583.44 --> 4584.82] Someone might be proving me wrong. +[4584.88 --> 4586.76] Maybe there's an update for Chromecast as of now. +[4587.42 --> 4589.24] Twitch works with XBMC. +[4589.60 --> 4590.20] Yeah, okay. +[4590.40 --> 4591.04] That's not... +[4591.72 --> 4593.16] XBMC is kind of a big deal, though. +[4593.26 --> 4593.66] It is. +[4593.66 --> 4597.36] XBMC runs on some of these other devices within their own operating systems. +[4597.58 --> 4599.04] Like, for example, Pivos's streamers. +[4600.00 --> 4600.30] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4600.30 --> 4605.26] You can run XBMC either natively right on the device or you can run it as an app with an +[4605.26 --> 4605.58] Android. +[4605.72 --> 4608.76] Personally, the only one I really care about, this might even sound kind of bad, but the only +[4608.76 --> 4611.76] one I really care about is Chromecast, though, because I'm not interested in really playing +[4611.76 --> 4612.84] Android games on my TV. +[4613.14 --> 4617.26] And if I am, I'm just going to use my Shield, because that makes sense. +[4617.58 --> 4619.22] And Chromecast is $35. +[4620.06 --> 4620.46] Yeah. +[4620.58 --> 4621.50] It's so hard to compete with. +[4621.54 --> 4622.18] It's $35. +[4623.66 --> 4624.90] Like, it's super cheap. +[4625.28 --> 4626.70] And you get free shipping from Amazon. +[4626.96 --> 4628.48] So it's, like, it's actually just $35. +[4629.52 --> 4631.36] So back to Amazon. +[4632.22 --> 4636.98] Speaking of Amazon, they are touting it as a gaming platform as well. +[4636.98 --> 4639.40] And you can get a gamepad for $39.99. +[4639.72 --> 4643.80] Although, and I haven't verified this, one of the reviews seems to indicate that you can't +[4643.80 --> 4647.04] use third-party gamepads with it, which is a disaster. +[4647.54 --> 4650.00] It should just work with any Bluetooth gamepad. +[4650.18 --> 4655.96] Because by the time I buy this for $99.99 plus a $40 gamepad, I could pick up a Shield +[4655.96 --> 4658.70] for $200, use any old Bluetooth controller. +[4658.70 --> 4663.98] And I've paid maybe $100 for something that is, runs on batteries, is much more flexible, +[4664.40 --> 4667.66] and as in, like, console mode, is actually pretty usable. +[4667.96 --> 4673.52] With a powered USB hub, which you can get on Amazon for, like, $8, and an on-the-go connector, +[4673.94 --> 4679.48] I was able to set it up so that my Shield can be perpetually powered and perpetually have +[4679.48 --> 4680.70] all my peripherals plugged into it. +[4681.28 --> 4681.56] Yay! +[4682.82 --> 4683.22] Fantastic. +[4683.22 --> 4684.72] Like, it just kind of works. +[4684.82 --> 4688.18] I know I pimp Shield a lot, but it really is a fantastic device. +[4688.36 --> 4689.24] I'm excited for the second one. +[4689.70 --> 4692.28] I'm super excited for whatever Shield 2 ends up being. +[4692.28 --> 4694.86] I'm still not sold on the way you hold it. +[4696.24 --> 4696.60] Okay. +[4696.88 --> 4697.24] Fair enough. +[4697.40 --> 4698.78] Your hands are not the same as my hands. +[4698.80 --> 4703.22] Yeah, and like, but, and like, that could change in number two, or it can't, and I'll just +[4703.22 --> 4703.80] get used to it. +[4704.36 --> 4705.02] I don't know. +[4705.04 --> 4705.44] It's fine. +[4705.80 --> 4710.62] And one thing that's, uh, that I'm not super sold on as well is a lot of games for Android. +[4710.62 --> 4714.94] This is not on the game streaming front, but the Android gaming front are not designed +[4714.94 --> 4716.38] to be able to control with the controller. +[4716.52 --> 4717.60] No, but they do have the remapping. +[4718.98 --> 4722.04] Yeah, but a lot of them, like, you have to tap on the screen really quickly. +[4722.28 --> 4722.86] But I don't... +[4722.86 --> 4724.02] You need the screen tapping ability. +[4724.18 --> 4730.50] I don't care, because I haven't really found any Android games that light my fire, so to +[4730.50 --> 4730.72] speak. +[4730.72 --> 4730.80] Worth playing. +[4731.24 --> 4732.44] I've, yeah, yeah. +[4732.68 --> 4736.00] I found a few, but like, I ended up playing through one, and I found myself holding the +[4736.00 --> 4739.88] shield in the weirdest way possible, because I had to hold the screen of the shield +[4739.88 --> 4740.52] like a phone. +[4741.28 --> 4741.90] Yeah, I know. +[4742.26 --> 4742.86] To be able to... +[4742.86 --> 4745.20] So I was like, this is really weird. +[4745.34 --> 4746.10] That's really awkward. +[4746.20 --> 4748.82] And I made it work, but it was like, okay, this is weird. +[4748.94 --> 4753.64] I mean, for me, it's one of those things where 95% of what I do on shield is watching videos +[4753.64 --> 4755.00] or using GameStream. +[4755.56 --> 4757.08] Yeah, and then... +[4757.08 --> 4758.26] And it's a great device for that. +[4758.26 --> 4762.66] But then that brings back the point that I was talking about, where I don't really understand +[4762.66 --> 4767.80] or agree with the fact that it has all this Android in it, and then all of the stuff that +[4767.80 --> 4770.32] has to be in there, like the hardware to support Android. +[4770.80 --> 4773.16] They could have made a way cheaper device that just supports GameStream. +[4773.46 --> 4774.66] But then... +[4775.22 --> 4775.58] Who cares? +[4776.02 --> 4777.06] It's now only 200 bucks. +[4777.30 --> 4779.38] Yeah, 200 bucks is very reasonable for it. +[4780.50 --> 4780.72] Okay. +[4780.98 --> 4787.34] So let's get into, not GameStream, but game streaming technologies in general. +[4788.40 --> 4789.10] Laptop conversation? +[4789.10 --> 4790.16] Yeah, yeah. +[4790.30 --> 4791.18] Whether the game... +[4791.18 --> 4793.26] Or is there anything else that we're missing that we promised we'd do? +[4793.26 --> 4795.40] There's just Dash, but I don't know if anyone really cares. +[4795.64 --> 4795.86] Yeah, whatever. +[4796.22 --> 4798.52] Okay, so is the gaming laptop dead? +[4798.90 --> 4805.44] I did a review this week of the MSI GS60, and gaming laptops have come so far. +[4806.22 --> 4811.38] Contrasting that with my GX660, I think is the model, MSI gaming laptop. +[4811.56 --> 4817.08] So I was able to look, like, snapshot, MSI three years ago gaming laptop, MSI today gaming +[4817.08 --> 4823.18] laptop, the old one ran hotter, way hotter, was much slower, was like twice the overall +[4823.18 --> 4825.32] thickness, looked stupid as all hell. +[4825.62 --> 4833.98] And the new one is this slim, sexy, cool running design with better battery life, and just is... +[4833.98 --> 4836.56] Better display is better in every possible way. +[4837.08 --> 4837.36] Makes sense. +[4837.36 --> 4843.80] And I ran a game on it to test NVIDIA's new battery saving feature for mobile GPUs. +[4843.86 --> 4846.84] What it does is it limits your frame rate. +[4846.96 --> 4852.88] So if your notebook is on battery, and it's still powerful enough to run a game at 60 frames +[4852.88 --> 4855.36] per second, and you kind of go, well, no, hold on a second. +[4855.44 --> 4861.74] I'd rather have longer battery life and turn down my GPU, and I'm okay with 30 frames per +[4861.74 --> 4863.22] second to get more battery life. +[4863.54 --> 4863.62] Sorry? +[4864.14 --> 4864.62] Blasphemous. +[4864.62 --> 4865.14] Blasphemous. +[4865.14 --> 4865.58] I know, right? +[4865.84 --> 4867.18] But if you did, okay? +[4867.46 --> 4869.08] Well, okay, I'll give you a different example. +[4869.18 --> 4874.70] If it runs at 120 frames per second, and your display is only 60 hertz, then whatever. +[4874.94 --> 4875.08] Yeah. +[4875.18 --> 4878.72] You might as well turn it down so you can save that extra battery life. +[4878.80 --> 4883.56] And NVIDIA is claiming up to 2x improvements in battery life by using this feature. +[4883.80 --> 4889.38] So I set to work trying out the feature, and I ran with it on, and then I ran without +[4889.38 --> 4889.88] it on. +[4889.88 --> 4893.64] And not only did I only get about two minutes of extra battery life, which is within margin +[4893.64 --> 4899.70] of error at that point pretty much, but I only got less than an hour of battery life +[4899.70 --> 4900.60] out of both of them. +[4900.92 --> 4903.14] So I kind of looked at it, and I went, well, hold on a second. +[4903.24 --> 4904.68] I mean, what is a gaming laptop? +[4905.22 --> 4912.34] A gaming laptop to me is a portable machine that is capable of gaming, but suffers from +[4912.34 --> 4916.98] battery life that is just abysmal when you're actually trying to use it for gaming. +[4916.98 --> 4922.66] Could they make a gaming laptop that has the power, the hardware of the GS60, and like +[4922.66 --> 4925.48] doubles the size and just fills it with battery? +[4925.96 --> 4927.12] I guess so. +[4927.24 --> 4931.82] But the battery technology hasn't gotten to the point yet where we'd be able to charge +[4931.82 --> 4934.48] that laptop in a reasonable amount of time, even. +[4934.92 --> 4937.98] Battery technology is lagging behind everything by a lot. +[4938.04 --> 4939.30] And it's holding things back. +[4939.40 --> 4939.56] Yeah. +[4939.56 --> 4941.68] And then I realized something. +[4942.24 --> 4945.84] Do I need a powerful GPU in my laptop anymore? +[4946.64 --> 4952.96] Because with GameStream, you can use a hardware-based decoder that's already in your onboard graphics, +[4952.96 --> 4960.96] and when you're at home, you can stream that game to yourself with low enough latency that +[4960.96 --> 4964.62] with my last experience with it, although I haven't gone wireless yet, I actually just +[4964.62 --> 4964.86] bought... +[4964.86 --> 4965.44] Where is it? +[4965.88 --> 4966.96] I don't want to step on that again. +[4966.96 --> 4974.22] I actually just bought an AC wireless card for my Ultrabook so that I can try Steam in-home +[4974.22 --> 4975.42] streaming with AC. +[4976.76 --> 4982.44] But if I can stream the games to myself at home, do I need it that badly when I'm on the +[4982.44 --> 4982.70] go? +[4983.00 --> 4988.96] And if I'm on the go, what are the odds I'll be somewhere where I can get a hardline connection +[4988.96 --> 4990.54] and I can stream it to myself remotely? +[4990.54 --> 4994.20] Because I know we haven't tried remote streaming for Shield yet. +[4994.88 --> 4995.76] Neither of us have. +[4995.92 --> 4995.96] No. +[4996.06 --> 5004.90] But I've tried grid beta, which is far enough away that it's surprisingly good, given how +[5004.90 --> 5005.90] far away it is. +[5006.44 --> 5008.38] How much data is flowing down when you're doing that? +[5009.00 --> 5011.64] They're saying you want 5 megabit up and down both ways. +[5011.78 --> 5013.98] There's a lot of situations. +[5014.32 --> 5015.00] Maybe not you. +[5015.42 --> 5015.60] Yeah. +[5015.74 --> 5017.34] So maybe you don't need one. +[5017.34 --> 5021.00] But I think there's a lot of situations where now, personally, I've never bought a gaming +[5021.00 --> 5021.26] laptop. +[5021.70 --> 5022.30] Yeah, exactly. +[5022.48 --> 5024.98] But I've never been interested in gaming laptops. +[5025.08 --> 5027.32] That's not because I could replace it before. +[5027.44 --> 5029.54] It's because I just was, I hated that experience. +[5029.64 --> 5030.30] It was just like, nope. +[5030.84 --> 5034.56] But everyone that I know that would buy a gaming laptop or has bought a gaming laptop +[5034.56 --> 5038.24] would still buy one because a lot of the places that they're using it, they're not +[5038.24 --> 5040.04] able to get that 5 megabit connection. +[5040.40 --> 5040.82] Fair enough. +[5041.04 --> 5044.26] Maybe in certain city hubs and stuff like that, you're able to get it a lot of times. +[5044.26 --> 5046.12] But I noticed a lot of school connections. +[5046.64 --> 5046.84] Yeah. +[5046.84 --> 5048.76] They're going to throttle individual connections. +[5048.84 --> 5050.04] Yeah, they'll be just totally foobar. +[5050.16 --> 5051.50] You're not going to be able to get it when you're at school. +[5052.38 --> 5054.88] A lot of the time, you're not going to be able to get it when you're at a coffee shop. +[5055.86 --> 5056.96] All these kind of things. +[5057.22 --> 5063.16] So you still want, so you want to be able to game when you only have power. +[5063.76 --> 5067.00] Because ultimately, it's not like you can game on the thing when you don't have a power +[5067.00 --> 5067.22] outlet. +[5067.32 --> 5068.30] I mean, 40 minutes is that. +[5068.34 --> 5071.12] You can't even play a round of League of Legends necessarily in 40 minutes. +[5071.12 --> 5071.52] Yeah, I know. +[5071.70 --> 5073.48] And I've actually seen people have problems with that. +[5073.48 --> 5078.80] But I find it easier to get a power connection than it is getting a power connection. +[5079.14 --> 5080.92] And say you're in a car and you're going on a road trip. +[5081.02 --> 5084.46] This is not as common as the other scenarios I was giving you. +[5084.58 --> 5087.62] But if you're chilling in the back of the car on a road trip, it is potential that you +[5087.62 --> 5088.68] could trickle off of the car. +[5089.16 --> 5089.60] Yeah, you can. +[5089.80 --> 5090.00] Yeah. +[5090.12 --> 5090.40] Absolutely. +[5090.40 --> 5092.42] And you're not going to be able to get... +[5092.42 --> 5093.64] Get a couple hours out of it or whatever. +[5093.88 --> 5094.04] Yeah. +[5094.10 --> 5097.06] And you're going to be moving too quickly that you're probably going to get a craptastic +[5097.06 --> 5098.78] mobile connection, if one at all. +[5098.88 --> 5099.16] Terrible. +[5099.34 --> 5099.46] Yeah. +[5099.58 --> 5102.02] So I think there's still situations for it. +[5102.22 --> 5106.28] But then everything that I just laid out is things that are going to be... +[5106.28 --> 5107.42] Again, not me. +[5107.66 --> 5107.80] Yeah. +[5107.80 --> 5109.24] And probably not you. +[5109.62 --> 5114.52] And things that are going to probably very soon no longer be problems. +[5114.84 --> 5115.08] Right. +[5115.08 --> 5118.92] Whether it's the school scenarios that I'm talking about where those connections are +[5118.92 --> 5122.04] probably just going to get faster, as they have been, and then that's not going to matter. +[5122.18 --> 5126.18] Or if it comes down to the car scenario that I talked about, where Korea is already working +[5126.18 --> 5126.64] on that. +[5126.72 --> 5126.88] Yeah. +[5126.92 --> 5131.40] Creating that insane mobile wireless standard, which will make it so you can be moving as +[5131.40 --> 5133.32] fast as a bullet train and it won't even matter. +[5133.72 --> 5139.42] So at one point in time, in the hopefully not super long future, all of my holdbacks are +[5139.42 --> 5139.94] not going to matter. +[5140.02 --> 5140.48] Because I'll never... +[5140.48 --> 5142.04] But as of right now, I can still see the merits. +[5142.18 --> 5144.20] I never see myself gaming on the go. +[5145.08 --> 5148.48] And when I'm at home, like even if I'm at home, like I'm on the couch or whatever, I +[5148.48 --> 5150.06] don't feel like going and getting my charger. +[5150.56 --> 5150.72] No. +[5150.80 --> 5154.58] Would I use Steam and Home streaming or would I play natively on the device? +[5155.06 --> 5157.28] The heat output when you're playing on it. +[5157.36 --> 5157.52] Yeah. +[5157.70 --> 5163.60] And the additional battery life that you can get by streaming using this instead of a +[5163.60 --> 5165.22] GPU is tangible. +[5165.44 --> 5166.32] In your house, definitely. +[5166.62 --> 5166.98] For sure. +[5167.10 --> 5167.20] Yeah. +[5167.20 --> 5168.00] I definitely agree with that. +[5168.00 --> 5173.14] And honestly, you said on the run, even if you're going to game and all that kind of +[5173.14 --> 5175.54] stuff and even in your house, 2DS. +[5177.10 --> 5178.74] It's cheap as all crap. +[5178.92 --> 5180.04] I can play it anywhere. +[5181.44 --> 5183.38] Austin Evans is video calling me. +[5183.44 --> 5184.14] Should I just like... +[5185.14 --> 5186.32] Should I just take it? +[5186.76 --> 5187.16] Sure. +[5187.82 --> 5189.38] Is there like 10 billion people? +[5189.92 --> 5190.32] Apparently. +[5191.04 --> 5192.50] It was probably a misclick, man. +[5194.38 --> 5195.16] I'll be like, sup? +[5195.16 --> 5197.48] It was probably a misclick. +[5197.60 --> 5201.72] He probably just tried to video call everyone on his contacts because that's a lot of people. +[5202.68 --> 5203.28] Kind of is. +[5203.78 --> 5206.42] Anyway, I think we're pretty much done with the show for today. +[5207.08 --> 5209.88] This was fantastic for me

we're gonna be discussing that unfortunately we haven't tried it +[37.44 --> 41.82] personally yet but that may change over the weekend wink wink nudge nudge more on +[41.82 --> 46.20] that a little bit later we've also got that South Korea is working on 5g +[46.20 --> 51.12] wireless connectivity and not just enabling it in handsets but actually +[51.12 --> 55.38] developing the infrastructure for it so more on that later I guess this is the +[55.38 --> 58.50] teaser so it's all more on that later although I'm not saying anything that +[58.50 --> 63.24] anyone is a moron I'm just saying that the information will come later and there +[63.24 --> 66.66] will be more of it what else we got there's a candied attempt at +[66.66 --> 71.40] trademarking the word candy only a few people understand that and Nvidia the +[71.40 --> 75.48] black is back we'll talk about that more later on what does the black is back +[75.48 --> 98.06] even mean +[98.06 --> 102.96] I did put the right intro oh well whatever I was going to change that so that I could +[102.96 --> 108.24] put up a Squarespace logo. Anyway, Squarespace is our sponsor today. Remember guys, Squarespace +[108.24 --> 113.46] is the easy way to make your own website, whether it's for a blog store or pretty much +[113.46 --> 117.62] whatever you could want. Squarespace has templates that you can use and they handle all the hosting +[117.62 --> 121.40] for you and they have a new feature, which I'll be telling you guys more about later, +[121.40 --> 126.72] called their Logo Maker or Logo. I think they're just calling it Logo. Anyway, it allows you +[126.72 --> 137.52] to, well, pretty self-explanatory. You spoiled it now. Their Logo Maker. What does it do? +[137.52 --> 146.52] Does it short my rabbits from smallest to largest? Hopefully. Hopefully. If a Logo Maker didn't +[146.52 --> 149.84] do that, I don't think it would sell very well. That's probably true. Although they're not +[149.84 --> 153.96] really trying to sell it. It comes for free if you have a membership already. I don't +[153.96 --> 160.26] think it would be acquired for free very well. Yeah. It didn't do that. Yeah. Rabbit sorting. +[160.26 --> 166.20] Geez. Alright, so let's jump into our first topic of the day. Alienware's Steam Machine, +[166.20 --> 173.04] not impossible to upgrade. This made waves earlier in the week when, I believe the article that +[173.04 --> 178.84] I saw was also on Kotaku, but it was said that Alienware's Steam Machine, so this is basically +[178.84 --> 184.06] guys, just a PC, was going to be non-upgradable. And I kind of looked at that and I went, well, +[184.06 --> 189.48] how can you have a PC that's completely non-upgradable? I mean, you should be able to upgrade RAM, +[190.36 --> 195.02] maybe, unless they soldered the PCB. Or unless it was, like, at a maximum capacity already. +[195.38 --> 199.06] Yeah, okay. Which you could technically, like, I don't know. Unless it was already maxed to the +[199.06 --> 202.58] spec of the motherboard. I mean, you should be able to upgrade your drive. Even consoles, +[202.88 --> 206.88] even the PlayStation allows you to upgrade the drive on it. So I was kind of looking at it going, +[206.88 --> 213.18] okay, so it's not upgradable. Anyway, Alienware has come out and they have clarified it's not +[213.18 --> 219.70] completely impossible to upgrade. We just don't really recommend it. It is smaller and upgrading +[219.70 --> 226.18] the internal components will not be as easy as compared to other platforms. But we will not +[226.18 --> 232.70] prevent a customer from upgrading, is what their general manager, Frank Azor, told Eurogamer. +[233.06 --> 236.38] So I guarantee you someone will do it, at least just to prove that they can. +[236.88 --> 240.18] But that person would have to buy an Alienware steam machine in the first place. +[240.94 --> 241.66] That's a good point. +[242.30 --> 245.24] Can you think of a good reason to buy a steam machine? +[245.64 --> 250.48] I've talked about this in a few, I think at least two, I'm not sure exactly how many of +[250.48 --> 254.04] my videos at CES, where I would cover something at a booth and I would be like, this would really +[254.04 --> 259.68] be cool to put in your own built-by-yourself steam machine because you don't need to go buy one. +[259.68 --> 265.50] I mean, is this the whole console versus PC conversation all over again? +[266.08 --> 271.24] My favorite thing about it too, is that everyone's like, oh, but the steam machine's not competing +[271.24 --> 272.02] with consoles. +[272.36 --> 273.16] Oh, come on now. +[273.18 --> 274.46] That's not what it's supposed to do. +[274.54 --> 276.00] We all love each other. +[276.56 --> 278.10] Like, yeah, no. +[278.52 --> 280.34] No, it's there for a point. +[280.58 --> 281.80] No, you can't, you don't. +[281.80 --> 289.36] I mean, it's interesting, but like, I... +[289.36 --> 294.96] What about people who buy pre-built PCs and prefer to just have something delivered to +[294.96 --> 295.56] them ready to go? +[295.66 --> 299.28] I mean, installing SteamOS might get easier later, but right now it's a bit of a pain in +[299.28 --> 299.68] the ass. +[300.14 --> 300.64] Candy, rather. +[301.40 --> 305.86] So, could you recommend to anyone with a straight face to buy a steam machine? +[306.38 --> 306.78] Yeah. +[307.00 --> 307.76] Like a pre-built one. +[308.16 --> 308.76] Like an Alienware. +[308.76 --> 312.96] If there was like literally no one to build it for them, but I don't know anywhere that +[312.96 --> 317.56] there is no one to build it for you because places like NCIX, and I know of a lot of other +[317.56 --> 321.70] small computer stores as well, will just charge you like 50 bucks and then build it for you. +[322.40 --> 324.00] I mean, it might be okay as long as... +[324.00 --> 327.84] I mean, motherboard and power supply, I guess, are going to be the really challenging ones. +[327.90 --> 332.88] So, while you might be able to squeeze a small RAM upgrade or a drive upgrade or even +[332.88 --> 339.44] an intergenerational CPU upgrade, assuming thermals are okay, you're not going to be upgrading +[339.44 --> 340.54] it in any significant way. +[340.62 --> 345.38] Anyway, Alienware just suggests you grab an Alienware X51 if you ever actually think you +[345.38 --> 346.50] might try to change anything. +[347.08 --> 348.12] Or you could build your own. +[348.36 --> 349.50] Or you could just build your own. +[350.46 --> 354.18] Which is, yeah, probably the better way to go, in my opinion. +[354.18 --> 358.34] Which brings us to our next Steam Machine topic. +[358.50 --> 361.78] Man, I'm so excited for SteamOS being not beta anymore. +[362.22 --> 362.48] Yeah. +[362.98 --> 368.06] Although I would settle for beta at this point if they were willing to give me the in-home +[368.06 --> 368.80] streaming beta. +[368.80 --> 369.88] Are you properly set up? +[370.34 --> 371.36] Am I properly set up? +[371.42 --> 371.58] Yeah. +[372.00 --> 373.50] I could be very easily. +[373.60 --> 375.02] My Steam Machine is downstairs. +[375.22 --> 375.46] All I'd have to do is... +[375.46 --> 378.38] No, I mean, like, is your Steam account... +[378.38 --> 378.68] Yes. +[378.74 --> 379.54] ...in the group and stuff? +[379.60 --> 379.78] Yeah. +[379.78 --> 379.88] Yeah. +[379.88 --> 384.66] So, guys, why don't we just do a quick run-through of what in-home streaming is. +[384.74 --> 393.10] So, it's Steam's counter to NVIDIA's GameStream technology, or really any other local streaming +[393.10 --> 396.94] technology except much more open and much more flexible. +[397.12 --> 402.94] I mean, from the very start, it's running in Linux, so it's inherently open and probably +[402.94 --> 406.00] going to be quite, you know, hackable and playwithable. +[406.00 --> 411.70] And then, next up, Valve is coming right out and saying, look, we want you to run the streaming +[411.70 --> 416.54] service on anything that can possibly handle it, or anything at least that can run Steam. +[416.76 --> 423.86] So, that means if you wanted to stream from your desktop PC down to a little tiny, like, +[423.92 --> 427.54] gigabyte bricks on your TV, you could do that. +[427.68 --> 430.94] If you wanted to stream from your desktop PC to your laptop, you could do that. +[430.94 --> 436.34] If you wanted to stream from your laptop to a tablet with, like, a controller plugged into +[436.34 --> 438.34] it or a Bluetooth controller on it, you could do that. +[438.44 --> 444.62] The idea is anything that can run Steam can wirelessly beam a game or wirelessly receive +[444.62 --> 447.54] a game and then send the controls back the other way. +[447.90 --> 454.16] So, they've released it as a beta, and the verdicts are kind of rolling in, although it's +[454.16 --> 455.54] very much unfinished at this point. +[455.54 --> 461.56] And it looks like, unless you're running gigabit Ethernet, you're probably not going to have +[461.56 --> 465.62] a terrific experience if you're trying to game at 1080p 60fps. +[466.30 --> 471.16] But you can play around with the settings somewhat, so you can change to 30fps, you can change +[471.16 --> 475.88] to 720p, you can even go down to 720p 30fps if you're having trouble. +[476.16 --> 481.38] But from the reports I'm seeing, as long as you're running a strong dual band, so that is +[481.38 --> 487.28] 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi connection, or you have gigabit Ethernet, then you're probably +[487.28 --> 489.38] going to be able to... +[489.38 --> 491.96] 1080p at least will work on the wired connection. +[493.66 --> 497.46] I'll bet you drop down from all of that to wired connection... +[497.46 --> 499.68] Well, it's just a reality. +[499.88 --> 501.50] I mean, even with NVIDIA Shield. +[501.50 --> 505.50] So that's 70p 60fps. +[506.20 --> 506.80] 70p. +[506.80 --> 507.30] 720p. +[507.30 --> 509.30] Yeah, it's like... +[509.30 --> 513.40] We've gone back to Commodore 64 resolutions, because lol. +[513.40 --> 517.20] So that's 720p 60fps. +[517.20 --> 522.34] And unless you're within a very reasonable range of your access point, it's not a great +[522.34 --> 523.34] experience. +[523.34 --> 529.40] I mean, NVIDIA's done a fantastic job of dynamically altering the image quality according to what +[529.40 --> 530.40] it can handle. +[530.40 --> 532.86] So I don't know how much you've played with it. +[532.86 --> 533.50] I haven't. +[533.50 --> 534.40] You took both of them. +[534.40 --> 535.20] Right. +[535.20 --> 536.20] That is what I did. +[536.20 --> 537.50] I actually haven't touched one. +[537.50 --> 538.50] Right. +[538.50 --> 540.60] Other than at the NCI's LAN. +[540.60 --> 541.60] Okay. +[541.60 --> 542.60] Cool. +[542.60 --> 549.80] So basically what it does is it just reduces color depth whenever it can't handle the data +[549.80 --> 550.80] rate that it needs. +[550.80 --> 556.30] So as you move around the house, you might have really great color depth and no blockiness. +[556.30 --> 560.26] And then if you move further away from your access point, it might become blocky and look +[560.26 --> 561.30] less clean. +[561.30 --> 563.40] But it should still be low latency in theory. +[563.40 --> 565.40] I mean, it's not always perfect. +[565.40 --> 566.40] It's good to be. +[566.40 --> 570.86] I don't know how well valves works in this regard because I haven't actually tried it +[570.86 --> 571.86] yet. +[571.86 --> 572.86] But there's good news. +[572.86 --> 576.90] NCIX keys has given us access to his steam account. +[576.90 --> 578.20] He got a bit. +[578.20 --> 579.86] Everyone at NCIX got one. +[579.86 --> 580.86] Wheels got an invite. +[580.86 --> 581.86] Wheels got an invite. +[581.86 --> 582.86] Keys got an invite. +[582.86 --> 583.86] Jack got an invite. +[583.86 --> 588.16] Neither of us got beta access. +[588.16 --> 589.24] So I'm going to try it out. +[589.24 --> 590.44] I'm going to play around with it. +[590.44 --> 596.86] I'm going to be using, I'll run a proper gigabit cable down to my TV and then I'll try +[596.86 --> 601.16] it with Powerline because I have kind of a cheesy Powerline adapter down there that isn't +[601.16 --> 602.16] very good. +[602.16 --> 603.16] I'll see if that works. +[603.16 --> 604.16] Then I'll try wireless. +[604.16 --> 607.16] So I'll have to take those ubiquity access points home over the weekend. +[607.16 --> 609.16] But I'm really excited to play around with this. +[609.16 --> 614.04] Guys that are interested in jumping on the beta, it's not the like steam account beta +[614.04 --> 615.36] opt in. +[615.36 --> 616.50] That's for other stuff. +[616.50 --> 621.14] This is, you have to go find the in-home streaming group and join the group. +[621.14 --> 624.92] So it's not going to, it's not your auto opt in that you might have set on your account +[624.92 --> 625.92] settings. +[625.92 --> 628.42] It's actually more than that, which some people did not realize. +[628.42 --> 630.08] Oh, I'm so stoked about this. +[630.08 --> 636.78] I mean, being able to sit in bed and, you know, fire up the old laptop and play desktop +[636.78 --> 639.66] grade games with a controller. +[639.66 --> 641.66] Like, well, this brings back the... +[641.66 --> 642.66] On board graphics. +[642.66 --> 643.66] Yeah. +[643.66 --> 644.66] Yeah. +[644.66 --> 649.40] This brings back the, uh, I'm excited for like next generation thing, but not necessarily +[649.40 --> 650.66] for valve streaming. +[650.66 --> 652.66] I want faster internal home networks. +[652.66 --> 653.66] Right. +[653.66 --> 655.66] So that we can actually support all this stuff a lot better. +[655.66 --> 658.54] Cause I found especially wireless has been a big issue in this term. +[658.54 --> 663.12] I would love for you guys to tell us how important this is to you. +[663.12 --> 665.80] Tell us how excited you'd be about this. +[665.80 --> 673.54] But what do you think of trying to get our hands on a 4k display and running that on our +[673.54 --> 675.54] 10 gig network here? +[675.54 --> 679.66] Cause we here in the office, we have a 10 gigabit internal network. +[679.66 --> 684.34] We're using direct attach copper with SFP plus modules that are built right into them. +[684.34 --> 687.38] We have a 10 gig switch and we have a few 10 gig. +[687.38 --> 694.02] I have still another adapter to spare that we could throw into the steam machine and get +[694.02 --> 694.62] that fired up. +[694.62 --> 696.74] Well, I was thinking we should do like a big roundup. +[696.74 --> 700.86] So we can just add that as the like extreme ridiculous level of the roundup. +[700.86 --> 705.90] Cause we should have like a netbook and a bricks and a gaming laptop and a medium desktop +[705.90 --> 708.82] and a big desktop and like a 4k setup. +[708.82 --> 710.70] That sounds like way more work. +[710.70 --> 712.82] Well, we can exclude some of those. +[712.82 --> 718.46] But like what I mean is like have a range of stuff and show that it's probably mainly +[718.46 --> 720.46] network that actually matters. +[720.46 --> 721.46] Right, right, right. +[721.46 --> 726.34] I mean, one other thing I was even thinking about already was like, okay, MacBook Air has +[726.34 --> 727.78] Thunderbolt. +[727.78 --> 731.34] Remember that Magma external Thunderbolt PCI express enclosure? +[731.34 --> 733.94] You throw a 10 gigabit adapter in there. +[733.94 --> 737.30] All of a sudden you've got 10 gigabit to 10 gigabit to 10 gigabit. +[737.30 --> 743.94] You've got a full 10 gigabit link between a gaming desktop and a Mac, which can run steam. +[743.94 --> 745.94] Yeah. +[745.94 --> 750.58] So once I actually... +[750.58 --> 754.86] Are you trying to like justify the purchase of a MacBook or like what's, what's the, what's +[754.86 --> 755.86] the point? +[755.86 --> 757.58] Does Debian support Thunderbolt? +[757.58 --> 761.58] Uh, I don't think so. +[761.58 --> 762.58] I don't know. +[762.58 --> 763.58] I don't think so. +[763.58 --> 764.58] But I don't know why it wouldn't. +[764.58 --> 765.58] Yeah. +[765.58 --> 766.58] Cause you could, then you could throw SteamOS on the MacBook. +[766.58 --> 768.58] You could get your beta. +[768.58 --> 769.58] That's, that's actually interesting. +[769.58 --> 770.58] I wonder if they do. +[770.58 --> 771.58] So yeah. +[771.58 --> 776.22] Anyway, guys, uh, we'd love to hear people who are talking about Bieber. +[776.22 --> 779.22] Guys, we don't talk about Justin Bieber on this show. +[779.22 --> 782.22] That's just not, that's just not a thing that we talk about. +[782.22 --> 783.22] I'm sorry. +[783.22 --> 785.22] I wish we could cause he's just so dreamy. +[785.22 --> 787.22] Looks like it does. +[787.22 --> 793.54] So then we could be looking at pretty much the most lightweight possible device running +[793.54 --> 795.22] the most balling possible graphics. +[795.22 --> 799.50] I mean, I might not even, uh, did I show you the thing in Gigabyte suite? +[799.50 --> 804.98] They had, um, they had an external PCI express like graphics card enclosure. +[804.98 --> 805.98] Okay. +[805.98 --> 810.48] They actually had this thing running using external SAS cables and they're like, yeah, +[810.48 --> 812.98] we're kind of working on the interface still. +[812.98 --> 814.98] They just had, they had a computer. +[814.98 --> 815.98] Did it work? +[815.98 --> 819.60] They had a computer that had like holes drilled in it and like SAS cables running out +[819.60 --> 821.60] of it to like this external enclosure. +[821.60 --> 822.60] They're like, yeah, we're, oh yeah, it was working. +[822.60 --> 823.60] That's sick. +[823.60 --> 824.60] It was running. +[824.60 --> 826.50] So they're like, yeah, we're working on the interface. +[826.50 --> 829.00] We might use like Thunderbolt or USB three or something. +[829.00 --> 830.60] I'm like, yeah, you better do that. +[830.60 --> 833.60] Cause this is, this is not a, this is not a good idea. +[833.60 --> 837.90] Um, Hey, maybe people could actually use the water cooling holes in their computers. +[837.90 --> 842.22] If they like, didn't want to put a graphics card in their desktop for whatever reason, +[842.22 --> 849.48] SAS, PCI express card to no, it was a proprietary, so proprietary interface card to SAS cables +[849.48 --> 850.72] to external box. +[850.72 --> 851.72] It's like ridiculous. +[851.72 --> 853.60] Just why, but it would be cool. +[853.60 --> 856.84] I don't know why, but it would still be cool. +[856.84 --> 863.16] So anyway, this might've gotten to the point where I just don't care about that anymore +[863.16 --> 867.46] because if I could just have one device in my house that can stream to anything in my +[867.46 --> 872.92] house, then why would I want a dedicated hard line between that graphics card and the other +[872.92 --> 873.92] thing? +[873.92 --> 876.28] So before that thing came out, it now doesn't really matter. +[876.28 --> 877.28] Yeah. +[877.28 --> 881.34] And the stupid thing about it is everyone's been teasing these external graphics card +[881.34 --> 883.24] enclosures for so long. +[883.24 --> 885.04] And now we've gotten to the point where it might just not matter. +[885.04 --> 889.84] I mean, this is my problem with the new Mac Pro. +[889.84 --> 896.38] It relies on this non-switchable, non-networked interface. +[896.38 --> 900.74] It relies on a point-to-point connection between device A and device B. +[900.74 --> 902.66] To me, that is not the future. +[902.66 --> 904.48] That is not the connected home. +[904.48 --> 906.00] That is not the connected life. +[906.00 --> 907.36] That's not the internet of things. +[907.36 --> 908.88] That's not what it's about. +[908.88 --> 912.84] It's about everything being able to access the same pooled resources. +[912.84 --> 916.80] You know, cloud computing is an example of this on a much broader scale. +[916.80 --> 919.38] But the personal cloud is what really excites me. +[919.38 --> 924.02] So having that machine in your house that lives in the closet and now can be full of +[924.02 --> 930.50] hard drives for your own personal cloud storage, and then it can be full of graphics cards +[930.50 --> 933.28] so you can beam graphics horsepower to yourself. +[933.28 --> 936.08] You look at this internet connectivity that the Koreans are working on. +[936.08 --> 937.08] What is it? +[937.08 --> 938.08] 300 megabit per second? +[938.08 --> 939.08] Mobile? +[939.08 --> 940.08] The 5G stuff? +[940.08 --> 941.08] Yeah. +[941.08 --> 942.08] No, it's gigabyte. +[942.08 --> 943.08] Gigabyte. +[943.08 --> 944.96] I must have been looking at the wrong thing. +[944.96 --> 946.04] One gigabyte per second? +[946.04 --> 948.58] Yeah, they want you to be able to download a movie in a second. +[948.58 --> 952.84] And they want you to be able to access the internet on a 500 mile an hour bullet train. +[952.84 --> 954.00] Okay, so there you go. +[954.00 --> 956.08] One gigabyte per second connectivity. +[956.08 --> 958.32] If they can get the latencies down enough. +[958.32 --> 965.98] And remember guys, we sort of, you know, freak out about input lag and about latency a lot. +[965.98 --> 968.08] But consider this for a moment. +[968.08 --> 974.32] I can ping Nvidia's GameStream servers at, I think it was about 35 milliseconds. +[974.32 --> 976.42] And that's from hundreds of kilometers away. +[976.42 --> 978.84] I'm well north of Santa Clara. +[978.84 --> 980.46] Okay. +[980.46 --> 986.46] On a wireless connection, you might be able to achieve, let's say in the future, a best +[986.46 --> 986.96] case scenario. +[986.96 --> 993.46] If you could achieve 30 to 50 milliseconds of ping, that might be doable. +[993.46 --> 1009.04] If you could have a nice low latency display on a device like a shield or a phone, and pretty +[1009.04 --> 1013.76] much the only delay left was that network connection. +[1013.76 --> 1018.44] You could actually have, and if you had a faster home internet, so we've got fiber here now. +[1018.44 --> 1020.58] So even, you don't need a ton of bandwidth. +[1020.58 --> 1022.36] You just need a consistent connection. +[1022.36 --> 1026.10] So between fiber and having a consistent wireless connection, you could actually be looking +[1026.10 --> 1030.82] at beaming your cloud storage, your cloud computing to yourself pretty much wherever +[1030.82 --> 1031.82] you want. +[1031.82 --> 1032.94] That is the future. +[1032.94 --> 1038.46] Not an octopus of, you know, thunderbolt cables coming out of one box. +[1038.46 --> 1039.76] However beautiful and small. +[1039.76 --> 1044.82] And actually quiet, I finally had a chance to see a new Mac Pro in person and it is phenomenally +[1044.82 --> 1045.82] quiet. +[1045.82 --> 1046.82] I got to give them that. +[1046.82 --> 1047.82] Anyway, I don't think that's... +[1047.82 --> 1054.44] So the 5G technology that they're showing off can beam gigabyte per second over, more +[1054.44 --> 1057.82] than gigabyte per second over a distance of two kilometers. +[1057.82 --> 1058.82] Unbelievable. +[1058.82 --> 1060.82] Here, why don't we launch into that? +[1060.82 --> 1065.38] Just because I think I'm pretty much done with Steam in-home streaming and, you know, +[1065.38 --> 1069.44] candy you, Valve, for not including us in that. +[1069.44 --> 1070.44] Super unhappy. +[1070.44 --> 1072.44] But at least I get to try it. +[1072.44 --> 1073.44] Yeah, that's a good point. +[1073.44 --> 1079.00] This won't be ready for commercial for until about 2020 and they're going to do like testing +[1079.00 --> 1080.00] of it. +[1080.00 --> 1081.00] We're not talking about in-home streaming. +[1081.00 --> 1083.44] We're talking about this, which you guys haven't seen yet. +[1083.44 --> 1085.44] I wasn't sure you were up yet or not. +[1085.44 --> 1086.44] Oh, I'm always up. +[1086.44 --> 1087.44] South Korean 5G. +[1087.44 --> 1088.44] Are you candy? +[1088.44 --> 1089.44] Are you candy? +[1089.44 --> 1094.44] Um, which will be ready for testing, like I said, in 2017 and ready for commercial service +[1094.44 --> 1095.44] in 2020, hopefully. +[1095.44 --> 1099.44] This is a bid for Korea to try and get more on the network infrastructure side of things. +[1099.44 --> 1102.44] They've been really, really big, obviously, Samsung, LG, stuff like that. +[1102.44 --> 1104.44] Hold on, hold on, just a sec. +[1104.44 --> 1106.44] Sorry guys, sorry guys. +[1106.44 --> 1108.44] I got this, I got this. +[1108.44 --> 1109.44] Oh, I'm always up. +[1109.44 --> 1110.44] South Korean 5G. +[1110.44 --> 1111.44] Yup, yup. +[1111.44 --> 1112.44] Was that running the whole time? +[1112.44 --> 1113.44] No, no, no, no, no, no. +[1113.44 --> 1114.44] I've been monitoring. +[1114.44 --> 1115.44] Okay, cool. +[1115.44 --> 1116.44] Don't worry, it's all good. +[1116.44 --> 1117.44] Okay, okay, sorry, talk about this. +[1117.44 --> 1121.44] So 1.5 billion bucks on Movie in a Second Service. +[1121.44 --> 1126.44] Yeah, and this second service was tested a lot by Samsung and Samsung was able to beam +[1126.44 --> 1131.44] faster than, like I already said, faster than gigabyte per second for two kilometers. +[1131.44 --> 1136.44] This would enable people to access it on bullet trains going faster than 500 kilometers an hour, +[1136.44 --> 1137.44] which is ridiculous. +[1137.44 --> 1139.44] I might have said 500 miles previously. +[1139.44 --> 1143.44] It's 310 miles an hour, 500 kilometers an hour. +[1143.44 --> 1144.44] That's absurd. +[1144.44 --> 1148.44] Right now the cap is 300 kilometers an hour. +[1148.44 --> 1149.44] Yeah. +[1149.44 --> 1158.44] So to put this in perspective, guys, one gigabyte per second after, you know, overhead, the quick and dirty conversion is 10x if you want to get to gigabit. +[1158.44 --> 1161.44] So this is effectively as fast as a Thunderbolt connection. +[1161.44 --> 1169.44] And obviously not every individual user is going to get that kind of data throughput all the time. +[1169.44 --> 1174.44] And much like that test they were doing in London, this is a proof of concept right now. +[1174.44 --> 1182.44] By the time it gets rolled out to mass market, we could be looking at much lower cost infrastructure and sort of that 80-20 rule. +[1182.44 --> 1189.44] How can we spend 20% as much as we did on that research project and achieve 80% of those results or even 60% of those results? +[1189.44 --> 1199.44] But either way, if I could get anywhere near that, if I could get 100 megabytes per second, that would be gigabit speeds on something like this. +[1199.44 --> 1200.44] Now we're talking. +[1200.44 --> 1201.44] That's still insane. +[1201.44 --> 1203.44] Like absolutely insane. +[1203.44 --> 1212.44] And the whole idea of this is Korea is saying that with 2G, 3G, and 4G, they saw a national boost of just like everything. +[1212.44 --> 1215.44] Like national growth was just better with those infrastructures. +[1215.44 --> 1217.44] So the idea with 5G is we're going to do that again. +[1217.44 --> 1220.44] And the idea is that they're going to be producing network infrastructure. +[1220.44 --> 1227.44] So right now they're really big in the mobile handheld game, but they want to be really big in the infrastructure that goes behind pushing data to those. +[1227.44 --> 1232.44] They expect to see 20% of that telecom infrastructure by 2020. +[1232.44 --> 1234.44] And I think they're running at about like 4.4% now. +[1234.44 --> 1236.44] So it's actually a huge increase. +[1236.44 --> 1245.44] And given how quickly mobile is growing, that 20% could be a lot more than five times or four times what they're doing now. +[1245.44 --> 1246.44] Yeah, exactly. +[1246.44 --> 1247.44] Yeah. +[1247.44 --> 1248.44] That's pretty crazy. +[1248.44 --> 1253.44] Samsung was able to do it by harnessing millimeter wave bands, which were apparently a huge issue. +[1253.44 --> 1254.44] Tell me something. +[1254.44 --> 1255.44] And I'd love to hear, you know what? +[1255.44 --> 1256.44] Let's do a Twitter blitz. +[1256.44 --> 1257.44] We don't do those enough these days. +[1257.44 --> 1258.44] That's true. +[1258.44 --> 1259.44] A Twitter blitz, guys. +[1259.44 --> 1262.44] Would you consider moving? +[1262.44 --> 1265.44] Like, let's use South Korea as an example. +[1265.44 --> 1266.44] Okay? +[1266.44 --> 1275.44] Would you consider packing your candy and moving across the globe for better IT infrastructure? +[1275.44 --> 1285.44] If you were living in somewhere with like basically craptastic internet that you're paying way too much for, would you go, okay, I'm willing to do what so many immigrants have done the other way around. +[1285.44 --> 1288.44] Let's, let's, I'm going to talk to the North Americans out there. +[1288.44 --> 1295.44] You know, the people who just drop everything and come to this, you know, the new world, so to speak, to make their fortune. +[1295.44 --> 1297.44] Would you be willing to do the opposite? +[1297.44 --> 1311.44] Would you be willing to move to South Korea to get much, much better internet and television service and, you know, mobile broadband and, you know, access to better handsets and all that kind of stuff? +[1311.44 --> 1317.44] Are you a technology enabled lifestyle enough person that that would matter enough to you to move? +[1317.44 --> 1320.44] Would love to hear from you guys on this. +[1320.44 --> 1321.44] How about you? +[1321.44 --> 1326.44] Personally, yes, but I think ours is at least good enough that I'm not there right now. +[1326.44 --> 1329.44] What if, okay, because define good enough. +[1329.44 --> 1332.44] It's good enough for what we do with it. +[1332.44 --> 1333.44] Yeah. +[1333.44 --> 1334.44] It's good enough for email. +[1334.44 --> 1340.44] It's good enough for streaming low quality video, but nothing, you know, 4k or anything, obviously. +[1340.44 --> 1345.44] What if by moving to, okay, here, so stay with me. +[1345.44 --> 1347.44] What if 2020 rolls around? +[1347.44 --> 1348.44] Okay. +[1348.44 --> 1350.44] Oculus is wireless. +[1350.44 --> 1351.44] Hold on. +[1351.44 --> 1353.44] You know you're going to win with this one. +[1353.44 --> 1354.44] Hold on. +[1354.44 --> 1355.44] Okay. +[1355.44 --> 1356.44] So Oculus is wireless by this time. +[1356.44 --> 1357.44] Dirty. +[1357.44 --> 1358.44] Okay. +[1358.44 --> 1360.44] Valve has released Steam for Android. +[1360.44 --> 1361.44] Okay. +[1361.44 --> 1362.44] Okay. +[1362.44 --> 1369.44] And you could literally be sitting on a train playing a game on a bullet train traveling at 500 kilometers an hour. +[1369.44 --> 1370.44] Maybe faster than that by then. +[1370.44 --> 1371.44] Maybe faster than that by then. +[1371.44 --> 1377.44] Playing a game that's running on your desktop at home with full 4k graphics. +[1377.44 --> 1390.44] Would you move for that experience if back here in North America, we're still on 4g and we're like figuring out how to play like Netflix on our phones still and dealing with, you know, bandwidth caps. +[1390.44 --> 1391.44] I can see that. +[1391.44 --> 1393.44] I can actually see that. +[1393.44 --> 1399.44] Maybe not for the bullet train thing, but there's a billion and one other examples that could work like and the bullet train one's not a bad example. +[1399.44 --> 1400.44] It's just, yeah. +[1400.44 --> 1406.44] Um, that, yeah, that would be pretty cool because there's stuff like people were talking about the, the Valve holodeck. +[1406.44 --> 1407.44] Mm-hmm. +[1407.44 --> 1418.44] Like if that kind of by 2020, like they're talking this kind of stuff should be consumer, not necessarily the holodeck, but like Valve is saying that, uh, that VR should be consumer ready and good. +[1418.44 --> 1419.44] Like actually really good. +[1419.44 --> 1420.44] Like actually really good. +[1420.44 --> 1421.44] And that's Valve saying it should be good. +[1421.44 --> 1423.44] Um, in the next like two years. +[1423.44 --> 1424.44] Right. +[1424.44 --> 1425.44] It's not 2020. +[1425.44 --> 1427.44] It should be freaking epic by 2020. +[1427.44 --> 1432.44] So, so it's, it's, it's the, the, the possibilities, all the possibilities. +[1432.44 --> 1439.44] So yes, probably because VR, I'm kinda, I'm kinda, kinda really liking the whole VR thing. +[1439.44 --> 1440.44] All right. +[1440.44 --> 1442.44] Let's go ahead and see what the folks on Twitter think. +[1442.44 --> 1446.44] Um, Johan says no, because porn is censored in Korea. +[1446.44 --> 1448.44] That's actually kind of a valid. +[1448.44 --> 1449.44] Hotspot Shield. +[1449.44 --> 1450.44] Yeah. +[1450.44 --> 1457.44] Actually, speaking of, uh, show sponsors, Hotspot Shield is not our sponsor today, but you used Hotspot Shield in Korea, right? +[1457.44 --> 1458.44] Yep. +[1458.44 --> 1463.44] Uh, we could not access any Google services for some reason, uh, in our hotel lobby. +[1463.44 --> 1466.44] And we didn't have Wi-Fi, we didn't have, uh, mobile connections at the time. +[1466.44 --> 1467.44] So we only had Wi-Fi possibilities. +[1467.44 --> 1471.44] And we had to sit in the hotel lobby and somehow communicate with each other. +[1471.44 --> 1474.44] So Hotspot Shield, Google services, yay. +[1474.44 --> 1476.44] Yeah, anyway, there you go. +[1476.44 --> 1481.44] Had a plan to move to, oh, we, uh, someone was apparently already thinking about it, but +[1481.44 --> 1482.44] we don't know who it is anymore. +[1482.44 --> 1483.44] Where'd it go? +[1483.44 --> 1486.44] Buh-dee-buh, buh-buh-buh-buh, uh, buh-dee-buh. +[1486.44 --> 1487.44] Oh my goodness, what happened there? +[1487.44 --> 1488.44] I don't know. +[1488.44 --> 1489.44] Oh, okay, here we go, here we go. +[1489.44 --> 1493.44] Uh, emo polar bear had a plan to move to Sweden for better IT and education. +[1493.44 --> 1496.44] Oh, that's, yeah, that's my friend, I know him. +[1496.44 --> 1498.44] D-dartell figures, nope, nope. +[1498.44 --> 1503.44] Uh, I would absolutely move to South Korea for phenomenally better internet. +[1503.44 --> 1508.44] It's funny because when you talk about country growth and how you can stimulate it, better +[1508.44 --> 1512.44] infrastructure, this is, I mean, you look at the, you look at the candy backwards way +[1512.44 --> 1516.44] we're doing it here in Canada, where they build a bridge and then put a toll on it. +[1516.44 --> 1517.44] Like a huge toll. +[1517.44 --> 1518.44] D-dartell figures, a huge toll. +[1518.44 --> 1519.44] D-dartell figures, an enormous toll. +[1519.44 --> 1520.44] D-dartell figures, an enormous toll. +[1520.44 --> 1521.44] D-dartell figures, an enormous toll. +[1521.44 --> 1524.44] One that can, that one that costs, even if you're a regular user and you buy a pass, +[1524.44 --> 1526.44] about $7 a day to get to and from work. +[1526.44 --> 1531.44] I mean, when you factor in that minimum wage here is $10 and the income tax on a minimum +[1531.44 --> 1536.44] wage earner could be anywhere from after sales taxes for things like food could be as much +[1536.44 --> 1537.44] as like 30%. +[1537.44 --> 1543.44] We're talking about an hour of your day, an eighth of your day, if you're a full time laborer, +[1543.44 --> 1545.44] just to cross a bridge. +[1545.44 --> 1547.44] It doesn't even factor in gas and whatever else. +[1547.44 --> 1551.44] If you're expected to drive a car, which if you're in that municipality, you pretty much +[1551.44 --> 1553.44] have to because the public transit here is terrible. +[1553.44 --> 1555.44] D- I've changed how I get over there. +[1555.44 --> 1556.44] D- Oh, I know. +[1556.44 --> 1558.44] D- I go in different routes because it's so expensive. +[1558.44 --> 1560.44] D- So- D- And people are like, oh, that'll save on gas because you don't wait in traffic +[1560.44 --> 1561.44] that much. +[1561.44 --> 1565.44] D- That's the candy backwards way of doing things. +[1565.44 --> 1566.44] D- You give people things that they need. +[1566.44 --> 1568.44] I mean, the Romans had this figured out. +[1568.44 --> 1571.44] You build roads and the economic advantages will come. +[1571.44 --> 1574.44] No, we're like, well, no, we have to, you have to pay us for the, +[1574.44 --> 1576.44] you have to pay us for the road after we build it. +[1576.44 --> 1579.44] Anyway, so South Korea is investing. +[1579.44 --> 1583.44] D- They are making their country a better place to live and we're seeing it in the responses +[1583.44 --> 1584.44] already. +[1584.44 --> 1589.44] D- Yeah, I would, I would move to, I would move to a country that offers better infrastructure +[1589.44 --> 1590.44] and better services. +[1590.44 --> 1591.44] D- Anyway, so slow grow figures. +[1591.44 --> 1592.44] D- Makes sense. +[1592.44 --> 1593.44] D- Yes. +[1593.44 --> 1594.44] D- Peter figures. +[1594.44 --> 1597.44] D- I would if I had the money and candy is trademarked. +[1597.44 --> 1598.44] D- I don't think it's actually a trademark. +[1598.44 --> 1599.44] D- Yeah, no, they're trying. +[1599.44 --> 1600.44] D- Yeah. +[1600.44 --> 1604.44] D- I wouldn't move, but I would keep it in mind if I was ever on a trip near there. +[1604.44 --> 1606.44] D- I would totally move from America, says Mitch. +[1606.44 --> 1607.44] D- Nope. +[1607.44 --> 1609.44] D- In Ohio, I got what I need. +[1609.44 --> 1612.44] D- In Singapore, there's already one gigabyte per second plans. +[1612.44 --> 1613.44] D- Not for, not for mobile. +[1613.44 --> 1615.44] D- That's not what we're talking about. +[1615.44 --> 1616.44] D- Yep. +[1616.44 --> 1617.44] D- Yes. +[1617.44 --> 1618.44] D- Yes. +[1618.44 --> 1619.44] D- No. +[1619.44 --> 1623.44] D- Unless they're willing to lower prices, change piracy laws and have a government like +[1623.44 --> 1624.44] ours. +[1624.44 --> 1625.44] D- Hashtag democracy. +[1625.44 --> 1627.44] D- Lower prices? +[1627.44 --> 1628.44] D- On what? +[1628.44 --> 1632.44] D- I don't, and I don't know what their government system is, cause I don't, I don't- +[1632.44 --> 1636.44] D- No, I wouldn't, but I would appreciate if the Canadian ISPs would get their candy +[1636.44 --> 1637.44] together. +[1637.44 --> 1638.44] D- Yeah, gotcha. +[1638.44 --> 1640.44] D- If I could still speak English, then yes, that's an interesting point. +[1640.44 --> 1643.44] D- But this is like, it doesn't necessarily have to be Korea as well. +[1643.44 --> 1646.44] D- I think, I think the question is more, would you move? +[1646.44 --> 1647.44] D- I did specifically say Korea though. +[1647.44 --> 1648.44] D- Did you? +[1648.44 --> 1649.44] D- Yeah. +[1649.44 --> 1650.44] D- Okay. +[1650.44 --> 1652.44] D- I sure, I'm sure would, can't get enough, even willing to pay more. +[1652.44 --> 1654.44] D- They just won't give it up. +[1654.44 --> 1656.44] D- Uh, not unless US became more terrible. +[1656.44 --> 1657.44] D- Okay, that's from David. +[1657.44 --> 1660.44] D- I would move from Germany to Korea for internet. +[1660.44 --> 1663.44] D- Wow, look at that. +[1663.44 --> 1665.44] D- No doubt, I would jump on the next plane. +[1665.44 --> 1668.44] D- This is a lot of people saying yes. +[1668.44 --> 1670.44] D- It's actually a little bit more people saying yes than I expected. +[1670.44 --> 1672.44] D- This is a lot more than I was expecting. +[1672.44 --> 1676.44] D- Chance asks if I've learned about, if I've heard about Limelight Pie, and asks to talk +[1676.44 --> 1677.44] about it. +[1677.44 --> 1679.44] D- We were actually discussing that earlier this week. +[1679.44 --> 1682.44] D- It's not one of our topics for the show today specifically, but we might as well talk +[1682.44 --> 1683.44] about it a little bit. +[1683.44 --> 1687.44] D- The last time I tried Limelight was over a month ago, so I don't know if what I'm saying +[1687.44 --> 1690.44] is valid anymore, but it's a terrible experience. +[1690.44 --> 1695.44] D- This was using an Nvidia Shield, and then I also tried it on an HTC One, which has a +[1695.44 --> 1700.44] Qualcomm processor, so it should support the H.264 hardware decoding that is required for +[1700.44 --> 1702.44] the best possible experience. +[1702.44 --> 1703.44] D- And it just wasn't very good. +[1703.44 --> 1707.44] D- It was extremely laggy compared to Nvidia GameStream. +[1707.44 --> 1713.44] D- And I'd be willing to give it another shot in the next little bit here, but basically, +[1713.44 --> 1719.44] what Chance is asking about is sort of a movement right now to use Limelight, which could be used +[1719.44 --> 1725.44] for game streaming and already kind of works on a Raspberry Pi to have a very, very low power, +[1725.44 --> 1728.44] very small, very efficient game streaming box for your TV. +[1728.44 --> 1733.44] D- It's actually really cool because if it did work really well, I don't know, I haven't tried it at all, +[1733.44 --> 1734.44] and you tried it a while ago. +[1734.44 --> 1735.44] D- So cheap. +[1735.44 --> 1736.44] D- Incredibly cheap. +[1736.44 --> 1741.44] D- Yeah, you could basically strap a Raspberry Pi to the back of every single display you own +[1741.44 --> 1745.44] and have all your gaming horsepower right there, and I think that is the future. +[1745.44 --> 1746.44] D- Mm-hmm. +[1746.44 --> 1747.44] D- I mean, oh man. +[1747.44 --> 1749.44] D- Okay, you already have a wireless Bluetooth speaker in your shower. +[1749.44 --> 1750.44] D- Yep. +[1750.44 --> 1754.44] D- If you could have a wireless waterproof game controller in your shower, +[1754.44 --> 1755.44] D- I'd be down. +[1755.44 --> 1758.44] D- You could have like a tablet dock, and you could literally game in the shower. +[1758.44 --> 1759.44] D- I'd be down. +[1759.44 --> 1760.44] D- I already dance and sing, so why not that? +[1760.44 --> 1761.44] D- Yeah, so you might as well game. +[1761.44 --> 1762.44] D- Yeah. +[1762.44 --> 1763.44] D- I mean, waterproof Oculus. +[1763.44 --> 1764.44] D- Okay, now we're probably going. +[1764.44 --> 1766.44] D- I'd probably still do that. +[1766.44 --> 1767.44] D- Probably going a little bit too far. +[1767.44 --> 1770.44] D- You could just do like Mario under sea levels. +[1770.44 --> 1771.44] D- Oh my God. +[1771.44 --> 1777.44] D- What the candy's wrong with you? +[1777.44 --> 1778.44] D- Nothing. +[1778.44 --> 1781.44] D- I like my candy Oculus. +[1781.44 --> 1782.44] D- Alright. +[1782.44 --> 1785.44] D- Let's move on to our next topic, I think. +[1785.44 --> 1792.44] D- Speech recognition hack potentially turns Chrome into an advanced bugging device. +[1792.44 --> 1797.44] D- This was posted on the forum by Fushi, and the original article is by Ars Technica. +[1797.44 --> 1800.44] D- So I think you had done a little bit more looking into this than I had. +[1800.44 --> 1806.44] D- So it's not like, if you just skim it real quick, it's not quite as bad as it first looks, +[1806.44 --> 1812.44] because what happens is you have to go to a website and tell that website that it can use your mic. +[1812.44 --> 1815.44] D- The problem is it's not disabling it when you tell it to. +[1815.44 --> 1823.44] D- So you tell it to disable your mic, you go to a different website, that website then has to have a pop-up that you have to not close, +[1823.44 --> 1827.44] and then it can record what you're saying because that pop-up's there and can record it. +[1827.44 --> 1833.44] D- But like, the amount of times that that series of events will properly happen is, I don't think, very high. +[1833.44 --> 1837.44] D- Although it is still a serious problem. I'm not saying it's not a serious problem. +[1837.44 --> 1842.44] D- And I can't believe they haven't fixed it as they've known for four months, which is kind of crazy. +[1842.44 --> 1846.44] D- They say it's not evil, but it could very easily be used for something bad. +[1846.44 --> 1852.44] D- And someone other than the person that found it might find a way to run this, say, without a pop-up. +[1852.44 --> 1858.44] D- The second you remove the pop-up or pop-under, it's, I think, becomes a much bigger deal. +[1858.44 --> 1865.44] D- Yeah. D- Because the second there isn't that thing that everyone has trained themselves to automatically close immediately, +[1865.44 --> 1870.44] it's, like, way more serious. +[1870.44 --> 1874.44] D- Because there's gonna be a lot more websites where they're voice-activated. +[1874.44 --> 1886.44] D- Google now, if you go to Google's homepage, has their voice-activation button. +[1886.44 --> 1887.44] D- Not there? Maybe on Chrome. +[1887.44 --> 1891.44] D- Has their voice-activation button. So people that are searching Google based on voice, that's now a thing. +[1891.44 --> 1894.44] And then if it wasn't a pop-up, it would be a lot easier for that to happen. There we go. +[1894.44 --> 1897.44] D- Here it is, guys, in case you haven't seen it yet. +[1897.44 --> 1900.44] D- So the voice-activation button just on the right side of the search bar. +[1900.44 --> 1902.44] D- So if he presses that and then talks- +[1902.44 --> 1906.44] D- Tell me about the privacy issues associated with your voice recording. +[1906.44 --> 1907.44] D- Oh, I have to click allow. +[1907.44 --> 1909.44] D- So there you go, you have to click allow. D- Yep. +[1909.44 --> 1915.44] D- Tell me about the privacy issues that this voice-activation is going to cause. +[1915.44 --> 1920.44] D- Aww, cost. It was doing so well up till then. D- It was. +[1920.44 --> 1923.44] D- Alright, so there's something about Google Glass, something about Xbox One. +[1923.44 --> 1925.44] D- Anyway, that's not really the point of our conversation right now. +[1925.44 --> 1930.44] D- So, I think it's slightly sensationalized, as I think a lot of people freaked out immediately, +[1930.44 --> 1934.44] D- But I really don't think very many people are going to run up into this. +[1934.44 --> 1936.44] D- As people automatically close pop-ups. +[1936.44 --> 1941.44] D- And I don't think that many people are using- D- Not everyone automatically closes pop-ups. +[1941.44 --> 1945.44] D- I mean, I think that sometimes you're guilty of this, and I think sometimes we all are, +[1945.44 --> 1951.44] D- Of assuming a level of technical competence that other people don't have. D- But that's my thing. +[1951.44 --> 1954.44] D- It's not technical competence, it's people being annoyed. +[1954.44 --> 1959.44] D- Pop-unders are a completely different story, and what she's talking about in the video is a pop-under, +[1959.44 --> 1968.44] D- Because you might not notice it, and especially with newer- D- Okay, for years, my mum refused to click the X button in the top right. +[1968.44 --> 1973.44] D- I've never met someone like that in all my, like, tech support years. D- She insisted- D- She insisted on clicking the little line, +[1973.44 --> 1981.44] D- Because she was used to, I don't know, Windows 3.1 or something. D- Where, and like, even in 3.1, +[1981.44 --> 1985.44] D- You weren't supposed to do that. Like, everything would just be like piled up at the bottom. +[1985.44 --> 1993.44] D- There are people that exist- D- That do not close pop-ups. D- But then how many of them are going to have a setup +[1993.44 --> 1998.44] D- That has a mic where they can use voice activation for search? D- With a laptop, any one of them. +[1998.44 --> 2002.44] D- Because that's what I just did on my laptop. D- All I had to do was click allow one, and then I was just going to go to the top right. +[2002.44 --> 2011.44] D- I didn't know what you were doing. D- Have you ever done that outside of that environment? D- Which environment? D- The one we just had on the show. D- No. D- Yeah. D- But that's not the point. +[2011.44 --> 2025.44] D- Like, someone, like, you could disguise- I mean, okay, you look at scams that you and I kind of laugh at. D- You're viruses! D- Yeah. D- Blah, blah, blah, blah. Click yes now! D- That is what we're talking about here. D- Yeah, that's very true. +[2025.44 --> 2031.44] D- And like, it will happen. D- That's why I'm saying- I just don't think it'll happen as much. D- And because there's going to be such- +[2031.44 --> 2038.44] D- In my opinion, a small demographic that you can target with this, I don't think there's going to be a crazy amount of websites out there pushing for this. +[2038.44 --> 2046.44] D- Because when you're making a virus or something, you're looking at- D- I think you underestimate the market of dumb candies that are out there. Dumb candies. +[2046.44 --> 2054.44] D- I know, but like, that's the whole thing where people were saying, like, oh, there's no viruses on Macs. It's because the market was much smaller. +[2054.44 --> 2064.44] D- There's more viruses on Windows, not because Mac was harder to write viruses for, but because there was such a larger user base, so your target- D- So you think because there are so few people with laptops with microphones? D- No. +[2064.44 --> 2074.44] D- No. So few people that are going to actually do this. Like in the example in the video, she goes to a website where you can make a to-do list with your voice. D- Yes. D- How many people are going to do that? Not very many. +[2074.44 --> 2103.44] D- How many times is someone going to go to a website- D- Okay, how about this? What if you created a pop-up that made someone go to a website where it convinced them that their bank needed a voice clip from them for security? D- That's actually not too bad. D- That's what I'm trying to say. D- But then how are you pushing that pop-up? D- Some other website. D- No, but really, consider the Nigerian print scam. D- Okay? D- Oh, I knew this was going to come up with this and I lose. D- Enough people- +[2103.44 --> 2133.44] D- People fall for that, that it still exists. D- Yeah. D- And that they're still doing it. D- Enough people actually send money to someone. D- Never mind just record a voice clip, which is seemingly completely innocuous. D- This is where I lose the argument. D- I knew the Nigerian Prince was going to come out at some point. D- The Nigerian Prince is like, if we had a card game, okay? D- The Linus Media Group card game would have the Nigerian Prince card and that would be the Trump card, alright? D- You play the Nigerian Prince and it's all over. D- Yeah. D- +[2133.44 --> 2163.44] D- Yep, yep. D- It's done. D- It's over, at least. D- I did, I, the whole time we were talking, I was like, it's going to come out at some point and then I'm done. D- Totally screwed. Yeah, yeah. D- So they need to fix that. D- They do. D- I can't believe it hasn't, like, even despite what I was arguing with, um, they've known for four months, I can't believe it hasn't been fixed. D- Yeah. D- Because like, no matter how small of an issue I might think it is, it's still an issue. D- Yeah. +[2163.44 --> 2193.44] D- It can very easily be used for evil. D- They even have things where it can, it can start up the recording based if it hears certain words. D- Oh. D- So if you say like NSA or Syria, it'll start recording. D- Hashtag killed your wife, it could probably start recording. D- It could start recording that. D- Yeah. D- And it can, it can like manipulate that text. D- So it can, it can take that text and save it somewhere else specifically, be, easily because it shows in the video she says NSA in Syria and it like, bolds it, makes it big, formats a little bit, makes it red. D- Meaning that you could pull those out easily with a +[2193.44 --> 2223.42] D- Yeah. D- Right. D- Speaking of privacy concerns, Microsoft offers overseas data storage in response to NSA concerns. This was posted by HDZX on the forum and the original article is from The Verge. This to me is, okay, like everyone else is probably talking about the implications of the overseas data storage and how that may or may not actually affect the NSA's ability to steal the data. I mean, it would probably +[2223.42 --> 2253.40] cause more of a fuss with the local government of wherever the data storage is. But it seems like they haven't cared about that in the past. So I don't know how much that'll help. But to me, this is more of a potential long-term, extremely dangerous path that the U.S. is headed down. D- Yep. D- I mean, right now, one of what you look to, you look to the huge U.S.-based corporations that are, are driving revenue into the world. +[2253.42 --> 2283.10] D- The Microsofts and Googles and Apples of the world. If you candy those guys off enough, why wouldn't they just leave? D- And this could be a thickly veiled attempt to slowly move infrastructure out so you can move out. D- So all of a sudden Microsoft has been forced, not even necessarily because they want to, but they have been forced to move their resources out of the country. Not only that, but remember the whole like, +[2283.10 --> 2305.90] made in the USA. And I mean, I'm talking North America in general, you know, um, uh, Apple's push new mag pro assembled in the USA, you know, that being a selling point. All of a sudden, the U S government has created so much negativity around this data security and privacy issue that now it is a selling point that they've outsourced it. +[2305.90 --> 2316.78] D- There's, there's actually, there's a, there was mainly a while ago, uh, not really now, as far as I can tell, a huge phobia about made in China. Well, there always is, but, um, because of security issues. +[2317.34 --> 2326.24] What if they bugged the chip or what if they did whatever, right? So, so people were worried about that a lot. And I see less people worried about that now. And now people are worried about that in America. +[2326.24 --> 2331.92] D- Yeah. D- Just like, how did you screw that up so hard? Well, actually we know exactly how they screwed that up so hard. +[2332.96 --> 2341.86] D- Ugh. D- So that's, that's extremely, that's extremely troubling to me. How they could have let this get so far out of hand. +[2341.86 --> 2357.70] D- So there's, there's a few things that people are bringing up, which you already dismissed some of them, but, um, like, like there's the thing brought up a while ago, how the NSA had actually penetrated into Microsoft, Yahoo and Google and all, like a ton of different guys, internal networks. So like, does this even help? +[2358.20 --> 2368.58] D- Maybe not. D- Probably still in there. I don't know. But either way, Microsoft is moving out. And like you said, the biggest thing probably is the fact that they're moving infrastructure out and they could potentially move entirely in. +[2368.58 --> 2376.50] D- They would have already needed data centers overseas. D- Yeah. D- But now they have an excuse to move more of it. D- Yeah, more. Exactly. D- Interesting. +[2376.50 --> 2398.02] D- More Microsoft news. D- Yeah, that's not all, that's not all positive for Microsoft this week. There's a big hubbub around, uh, Microsoft paying YouTubers for mentions. So let's go ahead and fire that up over here. This was posted on the forum by DevilZee. And, uh, dude, you really gotta flesh things out a little bit more. +[2398.02 --> 2413.66] D- The original article is from Ars Technica. So stealth marketing, Microsoft paying YouTubers for Xbox one mentions. So Microsoft was involved. Machinima, the multi channel network was involved. And I'd like to start by saying that we have nothing to do with Machinima. +[2413.66 --> 2425.16] D- And just because some YouTubers are partnered with Machinima doesn't necessarily mean they're bad people. It just means they might have gotten suckered a little bit. Machinima's reputation among the YouTuber community is quite negative. +[2425.16 --> 2433.06] D- They've done some pretty shady stuff over the years, uh, including things like, uh, perpetual contracts with YouTubers, which are illegal. +[2433.06 --> 2439.86] D- And then perpetual contracts with underage YouTubers, which is illegal too. So they're both illegal. +[2440.12 --> 2444.26] D- And then pressuring these people and making them feel like they can't leave and they can't get out. +[2444.26 --> 2451.36] D- Like Machinima has not always been the most, um, straight edge company necessarily. +[2451.70 --> 2457.88] D- But with that said, um, you know what? Okay. You know what? Here, I'll let you explain what was going on. +[2457.94 --> 2459.76] D- And then I'll, I'll weigh in with my spiel. +[2460.08 --> 2463.16] D- I'd love to hear what you guys think on Twitter about this as well. Linus Tech on Twitter. +[2463.16 --> 2466.92] D- Explain what you're, what's going on as in like how they were doing it? +[2466.92 --> 2468.52] D- Yeah, yeah. Just talk about what happened. +[2468.52 --> 2474.58] D- So there's, they, they, they proposed a $3 CPM. So you'd get three extra dollars per thousand views that you got. +[2474.58 --> 2476.46] D- And there was- D- Which is a lot by the way. +[2476.46 --> 2481.02] D- It's, it adds up. There was some prerequisites though. You had to be a Machinima partner. +[2481.02 --> 2484.28] D- You had to have at least 30 seconds of Xbox One game footage. +[2484.28 --> 2489.96] D- You had to mention the Xbox One by name and you had to include the tag XB1M13. +[2489.96 --> 2497.06] D- There was also a few other things like in the guidelines for it, may not say anything +[2497.06 --> 2503.38] negative or disparaging about Machinima, Xbox One or any of its games. So it had to include +[2503.38 --> 2508.36] footage. You had to mention Xbox One by name and you had to be positive no matter what. +[2508.36 --> 2511.28] D- You don't have to be positive. You can't say anything disparaging. +[2511.28 --> 2512.78] D- Okay. +[2512.78 --> 2513.90] D- That, there's a difference. +[2513.90 --> 2514.90] D- So I guess you could be neutral. +[2514.90 --> 2515.90] D- You could be neutral. +[2515.90 --> 2516.90] D- You could be neutral. D- You could be neutral. +[2516.90 --> 2517.90] D- You could be neutral. D- You could be positive or neutral. +[2517.90 --> 2523.14] D- But if they put a clause that says don't say anything negative, I think the implication +[2523.14 --> 2527.72] is you should say something positive. So you're not wrong. You're just not necessarily technically +[2527.72 --> 2528.72] right. D- Yeah. +[2528.72 --> 2529.72] D- Okay, go ahead. +[2529.72 --> 2534.88] D- So this, like quite a few people jumped on it actually. And Machinima got flamed for it +[2534.88 --> 2539.78] and then there's other big problems like the main thing being that I don't think too many +[2539.78 --> 2543.92] people would have had a big problem with it if they were open about it. A lot of YouTubers +[2543.92 --> 2549.30] did this without mentioning the whole kickback thing because I think it had to be confidential. +[2549.30 --> 2551.18] D- I think there's actually somewhere in here. Yeah. +[2551.18 --> 2553.12] D- Yeah. D- It had to be confidential in some form. +[2553.12 --> 2557.36] D- You must also keep details of the promotional agreement confidential in order to qualify +[2557.36 --> 2562.20] for payment. So the idea is if it was super transparent, I don't think too many people +[2562.20 --> 2566.78] would have cared much. But because it was so shady, a lot of people cared. And there's +[2566.78 --> 2571.90] actually FTC guidelines saying that say you received a gift from someone and then you +[2571.90 --> 2575.78] did coverage on it in some way. It has to be transparent. D- Not necessarily a gift. +[2575.78 --> 2580.18] Like even a review sample. D- Yeah. D- Actually I don't know if a review sample +[2580.18 --> 2585.52] qualifies. D- Yeah, yeah. I think it does. You have to specify. And this is in America. +[2585.52 --> 2589.46] In Canada I actually don't have to tell you guys that I got a sample. I think it's implied +[2589.46 --> 2593.28] though. Because usually I'll tell you guys I bought it if it isn't a review sample. +[2593.28 --> 2597.34] D- Yeah. D- Just throwing that out there. D- Extra things like the Oculus review that's +[2597.34 --> 2601.66] coming out, or came out I guess for me, I bought that. And then there's a Wii U one coming +[2601.66 --> 2607.56] out soon that was purchased as well. Like usually unless it's like unboxing, blah, blah, blah, +[2607.56 --> 2612.34] blah, blah, blah, we actually bought it. D- Yeah. D- Yeah, I guess that's my take on it. +[2612.34 --> 2617.06] D- So, problem or not a problem? D- I think problem. +[2617.06 --> 2625.16] D- I think there is a problem here, but not necessarily for the reasons that a lot of +[2625.16 --> 2632.50] people think. I think the clause about not saying anything disparaging about Microsoft, +[2632.78 --> 2640.44] Machinima, or games is maybe- D- I don't actually think that's necessarily that bad. +[2640.44 --> 2646.38] D- Because it's implied. D- It's implied. And well, okay, the problem is if you had something +[2646.38 --> 2651.70] negative to say, just don't take it. D- Yes. D- Yeah. So like if you take, you can take +[2651.70 --> 2655.50] this bonus, you have to say something nice. D- So- D- You cannot take this bonus and say +[2655.50 --> 2660.62] whatever the hell you want. D- Candy. D- Whatever the candy you want. It's optional. +[2660.62 --> 2664.94] So that I don't necessarily mind. I don't like the, you have to keep it confidential, blah, +[2664.94 --> 2671.88] blah, blah. D- So here's the thing. For example, our Squarespace sponsorship, there's a confidentiality +[2671.88 --> 2677.62] class. D- Okay. D- I can't tell you guys how much Squarespace is paying us when they sponsor +[2677.62 --> 2683.82] the land show. D- It's- D- For example. D- It's the- D- So there, and I'm not saying that's the +[2683.82 --> 2690.06] same thing. D- It's not. D- I'm just saying that it's fairly typical for a sponsorship or advertising +[2690.06 --> 2694.36] agreement to have some kind of confidentiality. D- But it's not the, it's not the fact that there +[2694.36 --> 2700.74] is one. D- It's the details within. D- No. You're right. You're right. I am 100% allowed +[2700.74 --> 2705.26] to disclose that Squarespace is a sponsor of the show. And in fact, I feel quite strongly +[2705.26 --> 2710.56] that anyone who is sponsoring us, anyone who is directly giving us money to bring our content +[2710.56 --> 2717.64] to you guys, you guys should know about it. Because you guys should be like, good job Squarespace +[2717.64 --> 2721.76] for recognizing that we like this content and we want to see more of it. Thank you very much +[2721.76 --> 2727.04] for allowing Linus and his team to keep making it. I mean, I personally think that sponsorships +[2727.04 --> 2731.14] and support should be as public as possible. And you guys are more than welcome to ask me +[2731.14 --> 2736.34] at any time who our sponsors are, and I will be happy to tell you, yes, this was paid for, +[2736.42 --> 2741.46] this wasn't paid for, and these guys are sponsors or these guys are not sponsors. That's all great. +[2742.90 --> 2746.64] Oh, look at that. Hotspot Shield. Just sent me an email. Hotspot Shield happens to be a sponsor +[2746.64 --> 2754.06] as well. The issue here, more than anything else, is not disclosing that Microsoft... I mean, +[2754.14 --> 2757.04] even if you were to say... even if they were to say something as simple as, +[2757.42 --> 2761.12] Microsoft asked me to do this Xbox One gameplay video. +[2762.72 --> 2763.12] Yeah. +[2763.58 --> 2770.18] So I want to take a moment to thank Microsoft and talk to you guys a little bit about the Xbox One +[2770.18 --> 2774.46] and show you this gameplay footage. And like, like, the fact that they said it has to be positive +[2774.46 --> 2778.80] doesn't necessarily mean that it's skewing the person's views. The person might have already +[2778.80 --> 2783.58] had positive things to say about it. So they're not... I don't... that part I... yeah. +[2783.96 --> 2788.48] On the other hand, it might have. And I think when you look at the terms of this campaign, +[2788.48 --> 2795.04] it seems to be designed to target guys who otherwise might not necessarily have been talking about +[2795.04 --> 2802.20] the Xbox One. But with all of that said, everyone who took the money knew the terms before they took +[2802.20 --> 2805.12] the money. Yep. +[2805.86 --> 2812.50] So if you have a problem with the way that any of this was implemented, then take it up with the YouTuber. +[2813.58 --> 2818.88] I mean, I don't agree with Microsoft's approach, and I don't particularly care for Machinima's way +[2818.88 --> 2824.22] of doing business either. Let's make that abundantly clear. But if you don't like what a YouTuber is +[2824.22 --> 2829.12] taking money for, your issue is with the YouTuber, not necessarily with the sponsor. +[2829.28 --> 2831.00] You'll notice we don't have an Xbox One video. +[2832.54 --> 2836.42] No, we don't. We have an Xbox One. It's over there. In a corner. +[2836.78 --> 2837.90] Collecting dust like it should be. +[2838.56 --> 2840.66] Has it turned on since we did the image comparison? +[2840.66 --> 2843.22] Hold on, let's do 30 seconds of gameplay footage quick. +[2843.66 --> 2846.02] We can show, like, the gameplay versus PC footage? +[2846.08 --> 2849.54] Because all we said is it was sitting there. We didn't say it was doing a bad job. +[2850.08 --> 2851.86] It's doing a quite good job of sitting there. +[2851.88 --> 2853.18] Yeah, it looks great. +[2853.18 --> 2853.88] It hasn't broken. +[2854.04 --> 2854.56] The Kinect? +[2856.94 --> 2857.38] Yes! +[2858.58 --> 2859.98] Not broken Xbox One. +[2860.20 --> 2861.38] Because we haven't turned it on. +[2862.28 --> 2863.40] Oh, love it. +[2863.48 --> 2865.46] I guess it's like, what is it? +[2866.22 --> 2867.18] Singler? No, whatever. +[2867.18 --> 2871.24] Apparently someone from PC Master Race subreddit got an email to promote the Xbox One. +[2871.36 --> 2874.06] I mean, guerrilla marketing is not a new thing. +[2874.38 --> 2877.48] There's also someone in here telling us that we're NVIDIA sponsored. +[2877.66 --> 2878.76] Believe it or not, we're not. +[2878.76 --> 2882.24] But NVIDIA hasn't done any paid promotion with us in about a year. +[2882.24 --> 2887.34] So there you go. +[2888.12 --> 2888.76] Oh, man. +[2890.20 --> 2892.12] Alright, let's move on to our next topic, I guess. +[2892.12 --> 2893.06] Speaking of NVIDIA sponsorship. +[2893.44 --> 2894.60] Speaking of, oh, what's going on? +[2894.70 --> 2894.96] AMD? +[2895.20 --> 2895.62] Oh, yeah. +[2896.24 --> 2897.92] No, let's do the NVIDIA topic first. +[2897.98 --> 2898.18] Okay. +[2898.28 --> 2898.88] Yeah, here we go. +[2898.88 --> 2901.30] Alright, so we've got an NVIDIA topic here for you guys. +[2901.98 --> 2903.12] Black is back. +[2903.32 --> 2904.44] This is just a rumor. +[2904.92 --> 2907.74] But I hope there's, well, actually, I don't know what I think about this rumor. +[2907.80 --> 2909.24] It might just be a totally stupid rumor. +[2909.60 --> 2911.78] It was posted by BrownNinja97 on the forum. +[2911.88 --> 2915.94] The original article is from videocards.com. +[2916.52 --> 2917.22] So there you go. +[2917.60 --> 2922.84] NVIDIA to launch GeForce GTX Titan Black Edition and GeForce GTX 790. +[2922.96 --> 2925.74] The Titan Black Edition looks like a somewhat real mock-up. +[2925.74 --> 2930.38] That GTX 790 does not look like a real thing at all. +[2930.48 --> 2934.50] It looks like the Titan one with an MS Paint black thing and then, like, some text over it. +[2934.60 --> 2936.34] And maybe sort of the correct font. +[2938.38 --> 2943.20] But basically, the rumor is that the 790 would be a dual GK110 card. +[2944.16 --> 2947.06] Which is kind of terrifying. +[2947.50 --> 2951.30] Obviously, it wouldn't have the same clock speeds or all the same functional units. +[2951.30 --> 2956.20] And then the Titan Black Edition is rumored to be a fully unlocked, +[2956.30 --> 2961.88] because remember, the original GTX Titan does not have all of the GK110 functional units. +[2961.98 --> 2963.66] It actually is missing some CUDA cores. +[2964.02 --> 2965.40] SMXs, I guess they call them now. +[2967.40 --> 2972.44] But we might see, so we might see that card come in with, there's rumors about memory busts. +[2972.46 --> 2974.72] There's rumors about how much memory will be on them. +[2974.72 --> 2979.46] But we might get a replacement for Titan, because remember, Titan doesn't make any sense for a gamer anymore, +[2979.60 --> 2981.92] unless you're running, like, 4K surround. +[2982.18 --> 2985.76] Every single time we say this, and, like, someone got super pissed. +[2985.96 --> 2987.60] I don't know, I think it was the 780... +[2987.60 --> 2991.72] Super candied on the 780 Ti video, because I said, uh... +[2992.58 --> 2994.20] Titans aren't really gaming cards anymore. +[2994.98 --> 2996.84] Like, super candied. +[2996.84 --> 3002.12] And I was like, man, if you bought it a long time ago, and you've enjoyed it this entire time, that's totally fine. +[3002.26 --> 3003.72] I'm not saying that's a bad thing. +[3003.92 --> 3007.84] I'm saying, like, if you're looking into it now, and you're strictly looking to buy a gaming card... +[3007.84 --> 3010.04] Titan makes this much sense. +[3010.14 --> 3010.32] Yeah. +[3010.48 --> 3012.96] Unless you need the extra frame buffer. +[3013.10 --> 3016.00] Otherwise, GTX 780 Ti is better in every possible way. +[3016.22 --> 3016.64] And cheaper. +[3016.98 --> 3017.10] Yeah. +[3017.10 --> 3024.44] So, a Titan refresh, because remember, Titan is not valid for gaming, but it's very important for CUDA developers, +[3024.64 --> 3027.78] or anyone who wants to use the double precision capabilities of the card. +[3028.24 --> 3034.94] So, for compute, Titan might still make a lot of sense, and it'd be nice if Titan purchasers could get a fully unlocked chip as well. +[3035.16 --> 3035.28] Yeah. +[3035.70 --> 3037.30] So, I just don't... +[3037.30 --> 3043.82] I don't know if I buy this, because the rumor says launch date February 2014 to March 2014, +[3044.22 --> 3046.26] but that's Maxwell time frame. +[3046.52 --> 3046.72] Yep. +[3047.10 --> 3047.46] Yep. +[3048.44 --> 3050.02] I find it very odd. +[3050.02 --> 3057.26] Now, especially with the 790, with, like, the crappy paint overlay, but the Titan Black Edition, +[3057.44 --> 3060.38] we've seen leaks of that colored cooler before. +[3060.50 --> 3061.20] Yes, we have. +[3061.60 --> 3067.30] So, it could have easily just been like, oh, we're going to turn it, make it vertical, put it in this line, and then yay! +[3068.06 --> 3069.98] So, I'm not entirely sure about that. +[3070.04 --> 3075.32] It could be real, and I wouldn't be surprised, because when the 780 Ti came out, we talked about, like, +[3075.32 --> 3077.04] why isn't there one with 6 gigs? +[3077.54 --> 3077.82] Yeah. +[3078.12 --> 3078.72] What the heck? +[3078.84 --> 3080.50] So, maybe that's a Titan Black Edition. +[3080.66 --> 3080.88] Yeah. +[3080.88 --> 3084.00] So, I would not be surprised if that one's real. +[3084.00 --> 3086.50] I would be fairly surprised if the 790 is real. +[3086.50 --> 3092.34] Because, I mean, well, the thing about a 790 is if they did manage to keep power and thermals under control, +[3092.42 --> 3100.32] I mean, remember, too, 780 Ti still kicks out less heat and consumes less power than the competing AMD cards. +[3100.70 --> 3100.88] Yeah. +[3100.88 --> 3108.82] So, if they did manage to cram two of them onto a PCB, it would probably be significantly faster than even whatever Maxwell can cook up. +[3109.18 --> 3109.34] Yeah. +[3109.52 --> 3114.44] Like, it's the only reason why I'm, like, naysaying it a little bit is just because that's got to be hard. +[3114.62 --> 3115.52] And it's got to be expensive. +[3115.58 --> 3116.28] It's a big die. +[3116.30 --> 3117.16] And it's got to be crazy expensive. +[3117.42 --> 3119.50] Like, it says, like, 999 plus. +[3119.68 --> 3121.78] I expect that plus to be fairly large. +[3122.00 --> 3123.60] NVIDIA's hasn't done that yet. +[3124.26 --> 3124.46] Yeah. +[3124.46 --> 3127.24] They've done 999 quite a few times in the past. +[3127.36 --> 3131.10] I believe 6800 Ultra was up near that price point. +[3131.22 --> 3132.66] Let me just double check. +[3132.76 --> 3137.20] I think 6800 Ultra was when MSRP at launch. +[3137.24 --> 3137.54] Hold on. +[3137.76 --> 3141.24] Was when the super expensive graphics card thing really happened. +[3142.54 --> 3145.62] And then they did it again with 8800 Ultra. +[3145.86 --> 3147.30] That was a $1,000 card. +[3147.36 --> 3149.80] But they've never gone above that as far as I remember. +[3149.80 --> 3155.02] I just, the only reason why I say that is because with the Titan Black Edition coming right behind it. +[3155.46 --> 3157.70] Like, right behind it at 999. +[3157.96 --> 3162.64] It seems weird to release a 790 right after that at 999 again. +[3162.66 --> 3163.20] Well, why not? +[3163.36 --> 3168.00] Because they had 590 running at 999 at the same time. +[3168.32 --> 3171.90] Or, rather, 690 running at 999 at the same time as Titan. +[3172.22 --> 3176.92] Where the 690 was the gaming card and the Titan was the compute. +[3176.92 --> 3179.64] And also because it had a much better GPU gaming card. +[3179.92 --> 3184.92] But if they had a 790 and a Titan Black at 999, I don't see why that's an issue necessarily. +[3185.04 --> 3185.84] That would just be interesting. +[3185.96 --> 3190.36] And I think we'd have the same thing we had with early Titan adopters with the Titan Black. +[3191.00 --> 3192.06] Where they'd be like, why? +[3192.40 --> 3193.32] Why did this happen? +[3193.40 --> 3197.36] Although SLIs kind of still, I'm still not a huge fan of two chips. +[3199.72 --> 3200.82] What are you looking up, sir? +[3201.12 --> 3202.56] I'm trying to find that pricing. +[3202.56 --> 3205.80] So FX 5950, 380 bucks. +[3206.00 --> 3207.86] 6800 Ultra Extreme was only 600. +[3208.16 --> 3208.68] I was wrong. +[3209.26 --> 3212.34] So that was the top tier Unobtainium card. +[3212.42 --> 3214.50] Along with the X800 XT Platinum Edition. +[3214.64 --> 3216.58] Both of which were very difficult to find. +[3216.68 --> 3218.78] And were basically just vaporware. +[3219.10 --> 3221.48] So 8800 Ultra might have been the first one then. +[3221.86 --> 3222.14] Okay. +[3222.96 --> 3225.18] But at any rate, it's all rumors right now. +[3225.28 --> 3226.74] We don't know if any of that is true. +[3226.84 --> 3230.00] I actually have heard nothing from NVIDIA about any of this stuff. +[3230.00 --> 3230.78] So there you go. +[3231.30 --> 3231.62] All right. +[3231.74 --> 3233.00] January 24th. +[3233.82 --> 3234.98] Oh, why am I even saying that? +[3235.30 --> 3235.54] AMD. +[3237.02 --> 3238.66] The title of the document. +[3239.40 --> 3239.92] I know. +[3240.22 --> 3240.64] All right. +[3240.66 --> 3242.50] So there's been some talk about Kaveri. +[3242.70 --> 3246.82] And some of the things that AMD could or could not have done. +[3246.92 --> 3248.22] And may or may not do. +[3248.38 --> 3250.12] Oh, I think I asked them for a Twitter blitz. +[3250.44 --> 3251.80] Let's go back to the Twitter blitz. +[3252.28 --> 3254.36] Don't forget the Twitter blitz, you guys. +[3255.16 --> 3257.06] Actually didn't get that message from anyone. +[3257.06 --> 3261.92] But I figure that's what someone would say if they thought we forgot the Twitter blitz. +[3262.56 --> 3265.08] Is that the Ubuntu font on your Twitter handle in the lower third? +[3265.24 --> 3266.32] Dude, I have no idea. +[3268.36 --> 3274.32] Isn't there a law in the U.S. that says paid content has to be disclosed if you receive the item for free? +[3274.84 --> 3276.30] So that there's... +[3276.30 --> 3279.86] For the sake of full disclosure, you have to be like, yo, I got this for free. +[3280.02 --> 3283.12] So take whatever I say that's positive about it with a grain of salt. +[3283.30 --> 3284.84] In Canada, that law does not exist. +[3285.08 --> 3285.62] And I'm Canadian. +[3285.62 --> 3289.00] Although we kind of usually say so anyways. +[3289.30 --> 3289.88] We're not... +[3289.88 --> 3293.72] And we take it upon ourselves to say negative things, even if it was free. +[3294.78 --> 3295.96] Opinions should not be bought. +[3296.12 --> 3297.26] The viewers are the victim, not the... +[3297.26 --> 3298.84] I didn't say the YouTubers were the victim. +[3299.36 --> 3300.28] I said they were the culprit. +[3300.86 --> 3301.02] Yeah. +[3301.50 --> 3303.86] I think you're misunderstanding what I said. +[3303.86 --> 3314.10] Terry says, the issue is that there is such a negative stigma about the Xbox One that it would create more negativity if they were open about this. +[3314.18 --> 3316.54] But it creates even more if they get caught. +[3316.80 --> 3316.96] Yeah. +[3316.96 --> 3317.88] And you know what? +[3317.92 --> 3321.22] It's funny that you mentioned the negativity around Xbox One because it's really... +[3321.22 --> 3322.82] A lot of it seems unfair. +[3324.02 --> 3324.88] It's not... +[3324.88 --> 3329.56] PS4 is not revolutionarily better than Xbox One. +[3329.68 --> 3332.68] Yeah, it's faster hardware-wise and it does have some advantages. +[3332.68 --> 3336.64] But Sony is every bit as evil as Microsoft. +[3337.22 --> 3339.24] Like, let's not kid ourselves. +[3339.68 --> 3342.48] Sony is the king of proprietary. +[3342.94 --> 3343.28] Oh, yeah. +[3343.28 --> 3347.00] Although, Microsoft's whole thing with the chat cable on the Xbox One. +[3347.28 --> 3347.98] The chat cable? +[3348.04 --> 3348.40] Yeah. +[3349.14 --> 3358.08] The Xbox 360 compatible headsets need a proprietary adapter that you must buy from Microsoft in order to plug any other microphone into it. +[3358.12 --> 3359.10] It's pretty ridiculous. +[3359.72 --> 3361.92] And then the fact that the controller doesn't work on PC. +[3362.00 --> 3364.54] Anyway, Sony has a long history. +[3364.70 --> 3371.78] Mini disk, memory stick, the memory units that go into their professional-grade camcorders at every turn. +[3371.78 --> 3373.90] They try to make things proprietary and horrible. +[3374.40 --> 3378.24] So, you know, let's not herald them as a white knight just yet. +[3378.42 --> 3379.78] So, I do... +[3379.78 --> 3382.26] Is this like the fastest car on the road argument, though? +[3383.08 --> 3383.26] Hmm? +[3383.48 --> 3389.04] Like, the PlayStation isn't necessarily a white knight, but the Xbox is a lot darker. +[3391.38 --> 3392.56] They're both speeding. +[3392.94 --> 3394.68] There's one of them speeding a lot more. +[3395.34 --> 3397.86] Dimitri says, please do not understand... +[3397.86 --> 3400.00] Underestimate the stupidity of the human race. +[3400.12 --> 3400.72] I try. +[3400.72 --> 3402.98] Xbox is better than PC, says Logan. +[3403.08 --> 3403.72] Good luck with that. +[3405.12 --> 3405.80] Confidentiality... +[3405.80 --> 3406.36] Oh, no. +[3406.56 --> 3407.50] Why do I keep... +[3407.50 --> 3409.68] I don't have enough margin for error here. +[3410.22 --> 3412.10] I need more margin for error. +[3412.88 --> 3417.56] If it were fully disclosed, then absolutely no problem with it being hidden, but that's terrible. +[3417.72 --> 3418.54] Someone should be sued. +[3418.70 --> 3421.28] I don't think lawsuits are necessarily always the answer, either. +[3422.16 --> 3423.44] Okay, let's go ahead and go down. +[3423.44 --> 3426.00] Isn't there a law that says paid content has to be disclosed? +[3426.28 --> 3427.24] I don't think so. +[3427.32 --> 3431.96] I mean, it's not like we go to a movie theater and they tell you, like, hey, we were paid to make this. +[3432.86 --> 3433.90] I think sometimes it's implied. +[3434.10 --> 3435.96] I don't think it always has to be explicitly said. +[3436.08 --> 3436.86] I think it doesn't... +[3436.86 --> 3438.42] I think it has to be not hidden. +[3438.42 --> 3441.38] Like, it was specifically hidden. +[3441.42 --> 3443.10] Okay, is product placement hidden? +[3444.60 --> 3451.90] If the main character picks up a frosty mug of whatever ale someone's trying to sell and looks at the camera like this? +[3451.94 --> 3452.92] Come on, how many times have I seen that? +[3452.92 --> 3457.02] But if you, like, somehow asked them, they wouldn't say no. +[3457.20 --> 3460.48] And, like, a lot of times you can actually figure out exactly how much money was put into product placement. +[3460.48 --> 3462.26] So it comes down to that confidentiality clause. +[3462.36 --> 3462.92] Yeah, yeah. +[3462.96 --> 3464.38] I think that's the problem. +[3465.22 --> 3468.00] So $3 is pretty low for breaking FTC guidelines. +[3468.10 --> 3468.70] Yeah, potentially. +[3469.28 --> 3470.78] Although $3... +[3470.78 --> 3474.60] It's a good CPM, but it's, like he said, you're breaking FTC guidelines. +[3474.60 --> 3481.84] Like, if we could generate 100,000 views, like a lot of game streamers can, and pump out, like, five videos, we're talking, like, 15 grand. +[3482.92 --> 3485.86] For, like, five videos, if you can reach 100,000 views with them. +[3485.90 --> 3486.88] I mean, that's, that's... +[3486.88 --> 3489.72] This is bad for the consumer, but doesn't it happen all the time? +[3489.76 --> 3489.98] Yes. +[3490.76 --> 3495.12] Seems super shady, but from what I heard, this is more of a machinima bad than a Microsoft one. +[3495.32 --> 3496.94] And that's actually interesting. +[3497.08 --> 3501.98] And, like I said, the blame lies not necessarily on one head here. +[3504.38 --> 3505.92] Why you no tweet you started? +[3506.50 --> 3511.20] I uploaded the video that should have created a tweet, in theory. +[3511.26 --> 3511.78] Nope, unchecked. +[3511.78 --> 3513.94] Oh, bollocks. +[3515.08 --> 3515.94] Oh, whoops. +[3516.18 --> 3518.22] We probably should have tweeted that. +[3518.84 --> 3519.20] Bleh. +[3519.50 --> 3519.80] It's okay. +[3520.54 --> 3521.88] What do you use for your Pebble watch face? +[3521.96 --> 3524.62] I'm actually a total loser, and I use one of the default ones. +[3524.84 --> 3527.84] I haven't played around with the Pebble nearly as much as I probably should have, +[3527.96 --> 3531.42] and now that they're releasing their App Store soon, I've gotten kind of lazy about it, +[3531.48 --> 3532.62] so I'm just going to wait for that. +[3532.94 --> 3536.90] Also, I have a Qualcomm Talk coming soon, so that'll be an excuse to really dig into the Pebble +[3536.90 --> 3541.24] and really spend some time with it so I can be properly comparative between the two of them. +[3541.24 --> 3544.28] Google Voice would be cool for online shopping or doing research papers. +[3544.28 --> 3545.94] That's what they want you to think. +[3546.08 --> 3546.66] Dun, dun, dun. +[3546.72 --> 3547.22] Dun, dun, dun. +[3547.22 --> 3549.26] I posted this in the forum about a new cooling option. +[3549.36 --> 3552.16] Now's not really a time for us to be following links and reading stuff. +[3552.24 --> 3552.42] Sorry. +[3553.22 --> 3554.60] 760 two-way SLI or 780? +[3554.68 --> 3555.82] Personally, I'd go 780. +[3556.54 --> 3556.82] Yeah. +[3556.82 --> 3562.38] We're both more single-card guys these days. +[3562.78 --> 3564.82] I believe Candy is already trademarked, although... +[3566.46 --> 3569.72] Did you run into any issues testing 780 Ti SLI on that rig? +[3569.86 --> 3570.36] I'm just curious. +[3570.58 --> 3570.74] No. +[3571.60 --> 3571.82] Okay. +[3573.52 --> 3575.66] But a little bit of tearing, actually. +[3576.54 --> 3577.40] But tearing's tearing. +[3577.52 --> 3579.06] That's probably just because your frame rate was so high. +[3579.06 --> 3583.30] Yeah, but no driver issues, no game crash, nothing like that. +[3583.30 --> 3589.08] Yeah, because, I mean, our whole single-cards-are-better is sort of based on neither of us having run an SLI setup in a couple of generations now. +[3589.46 --> 3594.56] But then I've built systems for people that requested SLI that have had problems later on. +[3594.68 --> 3595.04] There you go. +[3596.56 --> 3597.22] I'd move. +[3597.38 --> 3598.58] Have you heard about the Intel NUC? +[3598.78 --> 3600.28] Yes, I've heard of the Intel NUC. +[3602.02 --> 3605.94] And, yeah, it could be interesting with Steam streaming in mind, just like any small low-power PC. +[3606.40 --> 3608.40] Someone says, did you forget to post that the show is up? +[3608.64 --> 3611.72] Considering we have 3,600 viewers... +[3611.72 --> 3613.78] Yeah, no, the actual post did go up. +[3614.86 --> 3615.48] All right. +[3615.98 --> 3618.14] Just come over to Oz and get great internet. +[3618.38 --> 3619.68] No, I don't think so. +[3620.88 --> 3622.28] We're back into the internet debate. +[3622.36 --> 3622.86] So there you go. +[3622.92 --> 3625.80] That was all we really got for the whole Microsoft marketing thing. +[3626.82 --> 3627.32] All right. +[3627.32 --> 3630.24] So let's talk about AMD's potential with Kavari. +[3630.38 --> 3634.32] So Kavari, for those of you who don't know, is AMD's new generation APU. +[3634.32 --> 3638.04] So that is a CPU and a GPU fused into one. +[3638.46 --> 3642.22] And now with even more benefit to that than before. +[3642.36 --> 3650.52] Because if I recall correctly, Intel was actually the first one with Linfield to ship a CPU and a GPU on the same core, +[3650.52 --> 3652.16] even though they weren't on the same die. +[3652.26 --> 3657.70] There was actually a GPU die and then a CPU die right next to each other with a fast interconnect. +[3658.74 --> 3662.58] So while AMD wasn't necessarily the first one to deliver an APU to market, +[3662.58 --> 3664.36] they are the ones calling it APU. +[3664.36 --> 3670.20] And they have finally justified that with the highest technology APU that we've ever seen. +[3670.28 --> 3672.52] And it now features HSA. +[3672.96 --> 3675.32] So that's heterogeneous system architecture, +[3675.50 --> 3680.12] which means that an APU has four CPU cores and up to eight GPU cores. +[3680.34 --> 3683.42] And AMD is basically going, well, we're going to call that 12 cores now. +[3683.84 --> 3684.22] Don't worry. +[3684.32 --> 3687.26] On the box, they still specify what kind of cores the 12 are. +[3687.26 --> 3693.80] But we're going to call it 12 cores because that processor is now capable of, at the same time, +[3693.96 --> 3700.38] working on up to 12 discrete threads, even if they're all part of the same task. +[3700.56 --> 3709.40] Because of its Huma technology, the CPU cores and the GPU cores can both access the same memory at the same time. +[3709.48 --> 3713.94] So they can both use your system RAM and work on the same tasks and collaborate, +[3713.94 --> 3718.44] as opposed to the GPU cores sitting and waiting for instructions from the CPU +[3718.44 --> 3722.14] and then passing information back and forth over PCI Express. +[3722.32 --> 3723.66] This is extremely exciting. +[3724.24 --> 3731.54] And it also has huge implications for the value of higher-end memory subsystems in desktop PCs. +[3732.32 --> 3733.70] It's been quite a while. +[3734.74 --> 3738.64] Actually, it's been since the memory controller moved on DAI. +[3739.46 --> 3743.10] Since higher-speed memory has really made much of a difference, +[3743.10 --> 3746.12] within a single CPU generation. +[3746.38 --> 3750.88] So we've gone all the way from DDR1 to DDR3 +[3750.88 --> 3755.48] without seeing what looks like a generational leap in memory performance. +[3755.48 --> 3757.90] It's just kind of been incremental small improvements +[3757.90 --> 3762.08] as manufacturing processes have improved over time. +[3762.72 --> 3766.52] Now, I mean, A&D was, according to this article, +[3766.66 --> 3768.48] so the original article is from... +[3769.48 --> 3771.48] Actually, there's a lot of articles linked here. +[3771.48 --> 3772.70] There's one from Anantek. +[3773.48 --> 3777.66] There's one from Hot Hardware. +[3778.22 --> 3780.86] And then there's another one from... +[3780.86 --> 3781.80] Wow. +[3784.16 --> 3785.38] The top one's Slashdot. +[3785.50 --> 3786.22] Slashdot. +[3786.38 --> 3786.68] Okay. +[3787.00 --> 3788.20] And then another one from Slashdot. +[3788.26 --> 3788.46] Okay. +[3788.46 --> 3791.24] So it was posted by Vitalis on the forum. +[3791.64 --> 3797.90] And there's some evidence suggesting that AMD considered GDDR5 for Kaveri. +[3798.54 --> 3799.04] There's also... +[3799.04 --> 3800.56] So why would they do that? +[3800.84 --> 3802.64] Well, I pulled up this. +[3802.96 --> 3803.84] So this is a... +[3803.84 --> 3803.96] Oh. +[3804.36 --> 3805.26] Oh, balls. +[3806.20 --> 3806.92] Oh, where'd it go? +[3807.26 --> 3808.18] Where did it go? +[3808.34 --> 3809.14] Oh, no! +[3809.14 --> 3812.48] Where'd that Corsair blog go? +[3813.10 --> 3813.92] History, man. +[3815.04 --> 3815.88] Come on! +[3816.10 --> 3816.76] Was it in Chrome? +[3817.24 --> 3818.34] Yeah, it might have been in Chrome. +[3818.34 --> 3821.06] Make sure you don't activate your mic and ignore a pop-up. +[3822.06 --> 3822.94] Recent tabs! +[3823.44 --> 3824.34] Come back to me! +[3824.48 --> 3826.00] Come back to me, recent tabs! +[3826.24 --> 3827.18] Recently closed! +[3827.36 --> 3827.82] Oh, no! +[3827.82 --> 3834.02] If you were candy ready for this, we wouldn't be going through this right now. +[3835.56 --> 3836.22] I wonder if... +[3836.22 --> 3838.18] Like, how many people get that? +[3838.26 --> 3838.62] Here we go. +[3838.74 --> 3838.92] All right. +[3838.94 --> 3839.34] I found it. +[3840.92 --> 3841.44] All right, guys. +[3841.52 --> 3845.28] So Corsair has an interesting blog showing us the improvement in performance... +[3845.28 --> 3845.84] Oh, right, right, right. +[3845.88 --> 3850.98] So I was going to say we haven't seen much of a difference even with things like Intel launching +[3850.98 --> 3853.30] triple channel and quad channel memory controllers. +[3853.30 --> 3859.48] If you go back and look at some of the old reviews back when LGA 1366 and 2011 launched +[3859.48 --> 3864.54] of folks going, okay, well, let's try single channel, dual channel, triple channel, quad channel... +[3864.54 --> 3865.36] Yeah, not much of a difference. +[3865.42 --> 3870.42] Because latency actually goes up as you add more channels. +[3870.84 --> 3876.14] Whereas the bandwidth also increases, but if those two performances... +[3876.14 --> 3878.38] So higher latency is bad and higher bandwidth is good. +[3878.66 --> 3882.16] And a lot of the times they were almost pretty much offsetting each other to the point +[3882.16 --> 3884.00] where it really didn't make much difference at all. +[3884.46 --> 3886.50] Well, now we could be looking at a different situation. +[3886.68 --> 3888.16] So this is from Corsair's blog. +[3888.66 --> 3890.02] And let's see who wrote it. +[3890.06 --> 3890.98] This is by Dustin. +[3891.72 --> 3893.16] Dustin Sklavos. +[3893.28 --> 3894.60] So he used to work for Nontech. +[3895.12 --> 3897.12] So he's doing some interesting testing here. +[3897.16 --> 3902.52] So this is memory bandwidth going from 1600 to 1866 to 2133 to 2400. +[3902.52 --> 3909.90] So you can see that the read and write performance, which are the blue and the red lines. +[3910.40 --> 3915.82] So particularly the blue one, faster reads, are increasing as we add more bandwidth, even +[3915.82 --> 3917.48] though latencies are also increasing. +[3917.94 --> 3919.92] And this is amounting to... +[3919.92 --> 3920.68] Check this out. +[3922.08 --> 3922.72] Do-do-do-do-do. +[3922.96 --> 3924.52] Did you mean blue and green? +[3925.30 --> 3925.48] No, no. +[3925.56 --> 3926.08] No, that was right. +[3926.30 --> 3927.76] These are amounting to... +[3927.76 --> 3928.38] Check this out. +[3928.38 --> 3929.62] So these are different games. +[3929.88 --> 3936.54] Bioshock Infinite 720p, Bioshock Infinite 1080p, Grid 2 720p, and Grid 2 1080p. +[3936.82 --> 3942.28] An almost matching line when using the onboard graphics. +[3943.84 --> 3944.32] Wow. +[3944.86 --> 3948.34] So if you could potentially, I don't know, add... +[3948.34 --> 3951.48] And this is another thing that is rumored to potentially be in there. +[3951.62 --> 3956.72] If you could add quad channel memory support, or you could have memory that runs at, you +[3956.72 --> 3961.78] know, two times the frequency, we could be looking at onboard graphics that absolutely +[3961.78 --> 3965.76] destroy anything anyone could do with integrated graphics in the past. +[3965.96 --> 3968.20] And you might go, okay, well, I know that's very interesting. +[3968.32 --> 3969.96] I guess onboard graphics are kind of go... +[3969.96 --> 3973.62] But think about this. +[3973.84 --> 3975.50] What about HSA then? +[3976.02 --> 3979.00] So let's say you add a discrete graphics card to your system. +[3979.00 --> 3979.50] That's cool. +[3979.50 --> 3980.64] Okay, you game on that. +[3981.16 --> 3990.30] But what if your Photoshop filters, or your Premiere, or Premiere, or... +[3990.30 --> 3992.74] I'm trying a complete blank. +[3992.80 --> 3997.90] After Effects, or whatever kind of pro-grade visual effects program you're using could be +[3997.90 --> 4003.00] accelerated by those GPU cores, and you could increase the speed of them a couple times just +[4003.00 --> 4004.70] by having faster memory. +[4006.24 --> 4006.68] Wow. +[4007.04 --> 4011.42] And considering some of the demos that we saw at the Kaveri Tech Day, we could be looking +[4011.42 --> 4017.18] at, I mean, already Kaveri in an optimized environment, which is easier to code for than +[4017.18 --> 4020.56] it has been in the past, because it's all compliant with OpenCL 2.0. +[4021.12 --> 4023.64] Already, they're leaving competitors in the dust. +[4023.92 --> 4028.10] We could be looking at a whole new world of performance with faster memory for the first +[4028.10 --> 4030.58] time in a very long time outside of the server space. +[4030.58 --> 4039.04] I think AMD's timing could not have been better, because this time last year, all doom and gloom. +[4039.06 --> 4041.78] Will AMD exist in however long? +[4042.10 --> 4045.06] Like, look at their stock levels, look at how much money they lost, all this kind of stuff. +[4045.34 --> 4050.74] And now it's Intel sitting there with a few series of processors being released, and people +[4050.74 --> 4054.94] still liking 2600Ks and 2500Ks more than some of the new ones. +[4054.94 --> 4061.24] Myself still running a 2600K and being completely fine and happy with it, because I don't see +[4061.24 --> 4063.22] that much of a gain by moving up. +[4064.30 --> 4068.44] Comparing to AMD, where it's like, look at all this stuff we're doing right now, look at all +[4068.44 --> 4071.34] this stuff we might be doing in the future, and look at all this stuff we almost did, +[4071.42 --> 4075.00] and look at all these things we're planning for, and what about these theoretical combinations +[4075.00 --> 4076.30] of things that could be amazing? +[4076.46 --> 4080.02] And like, I don't know, I see AMD moving much more aggressively in the next little while. +[4080.02 --> 4082.68] Yeah, it's very, very, very exciting. +[4083.04 --> 4085.02] Speaking of things that are exciting... +[4085.66 --> 4086.76] This doesn't work. +[4087.10 --> 4087.38] Really? +[4088.02 --> 4089.36] You see why I hate this thing? +[4090.14 --> 4092.44] Touch to click doesn't work. +[4092.98 --> 4093.26] See? +[4093.60 --> 4094.38] Not enabled. +[4094.78 --> 4100.06] So why is it that palm detection is causing me to lose focus on a window? +[4103.86 --> 4105.48] What is going on here? +[4106.46 --> 4107.98] No one can see that happen. +[4107.98 --> 4109.96] Trying to do a sponsor read here. +[4110.66 --> 4114.20] Alright, so thank you Squarespace for sponsoring the WAN show. +[4114.32 --> 4117.66] I'm in an angry mood, so you're going to get an extremely angry sponsor read. +[4118.00 --> 4121.32] We really appreciate you guys making it possible for us to do this. +[4121.60 --> 4125.62] So guys, squarespace.com is the easy way to create your own beautiful website. +[4125.78 --> 4129.62] They have over 20 templates that allow you to create a website that looks great on desktop, +[4129.88 --> 4133.82] looks great on notebook, looks great on a phone, and any other kind of device you can imagine. +[4133.82 --> 4140.36] That's part of the whole value of it, because making a website that looks good across a variety of platforms ain't that easy. +[4140.46 --> 4147.36] So you can create a blog, you can create a portfolio, a store, a website for your business, all kinds of cool stuff like that. +[4147.44 --> 4148.72] The limit is your imagination. +[4148.72 --> 4156.16] You can use their easy website creation tools, or you can dive right into the HTML, CSS, and Java code, should you see fit. +[4156.34 --> 4157.44] But that's not all. +[4157.48 --> 4162.20] They've actually got something new that they asked me very nicely to take a look at, and I was like, okay, sure. +[4162.68 --> 4163.34] Candy template. +[4163.46 --> 4164.12] No, not so much. +[4164.42 --> 4165.54] It's a logo maker. +[4165.54 --> 4176.28] So if you go to squarespace.com slash logo, or if you just go to their website and go to the menu here, and then go to logos, you will load up the logo maker. +[4176.42 --> 4177.66] So this is actually kind of cool. +[4177.76 --> 4181.88] I created a little logo here, which took me just a couple of moments. +[4182.12 --> 4188.18] So you just key in some text, so it could be like, oops, no, come back. +[4188.56 --> 4188.74] There we go. +[4188.74 --> 4190.24] You can use controllers on PCs. +[4190.60 --> 4191.50] The WAN show. +[4191.50 --> 4199.06] And then weekly analysis and news. +[4199.52 --> 4204.50] Okay, well, it can't help you spell any better, but what it does allow you to do is move things around. +[4205.02 --> 4207.28] You can take your little logos here. +[4207.34 --> 4208.26] They have a little search thing here. +[4208.26 --> 4211.54] So they have some default ones, and I was actually a little bit confused about this at first. +[4211.62 --> 4212.36] I was like, oh, really? +[4212.42 --> 4217.06] I can have a pig, a diamond, a fish, or like a raccoon. +[4217.06 --> 4219.48] Thank you for the compelling choice of Squarespace. +[4219.76 --> 4220.54] No, no, don't worry. +[4220.62 --> 4221.32] It's better than that. +[4221.50 --> 4223.10] So you just go ahead and search for symbols. +[4223.22 --> 4227.10] So I punched in tech, and it came up with a bunch of much more relevant stuff. +[4228.58 --> 4230.20] Figures it says no icon now. +[4230.54 --> 4235.10] You know what's funny is I was actually doing this on a mobile connection, and that was working just fine. +[4235.14 --> 4235.52] There we go. +[4237.36 --> 4237.56] Yay. +[4237.56 --> 4238.26] And there you go. +[4238.34 --> 4241.82] You get like printers and CDs and Game Boys and cool stuff like that. +[4242.06 --> 4244.34] So all of a sudden, you can create yourself a little logo. +[4244.44 --> 4246.82] You can change the spacing of the grid. +[4246.94 --> 4248.16] You can move things around. +[4248.46 --> 4251.06] You can be like, okay, I want this to go over here. +[4251.06 --> 4252.56] You can make it snap to things. +[4252.56 --> 4254.02] You can align it that way. +[4254.02 --> 4265.22] And then it gives you a cool little preview of what your logo will look like on a business card, on a website, a Squarespace website, presumably, and on a t-shirt. +[4265.22 --> 4266.62] That actually looks not bad, hey? +[4266.62 --> 4268.74] That actually looks pretty okay. +[4268.86 --> 4274.76] So to be clear, they're not replacing graphic designers and brand creators. +[4274.76 --> 4284.96] They're just creating like the fastest, cheapest, easiest way for you to get a logo that's usable and ready for you to put on your website that you presumably also create on Squarespace.com. +[4284.96 --> 4290.62] There's some kind of a rate for how much you can pay to get a logo, but it's free for anyone who has a Squarespace membership. +[4290.82 --> 4293.46] And I realize I didn't actually put our lower third back. +[4293.66 --> 4300.52] So I realized that I didn't actually say, guys, visit Squarespace.com slash Linus, get a free trial, and then get up to 10 per... +[4300.52 --> 4301.26] Or get up to... +[4301.26 --> 4301.80] Wow, see? +[4301.80 --> 4303.62] I knew it was bad to go into this angry. +[4303.92 --> 4306.50] Get 10% off of your Squarespace... +[4306.50 --> 4309.22] Off your first purchase of Squarespace using offer code Linus1. +[4309.40 --> 4314.86] So that includes the website, includes the monthly hosting, and also includes their new logo builder. +[4315.18 --> 4320.32] And then they also very nicely asked me to mention Squarespace Super Bowl. +[4320.40 --> 4321.98] So they're going to have a Super Bowl commercial. +[4322.24 --> 4322.48] Really? +[4322.64 --> 4323.28] I was like, really? +[4323.42 --> 4325.02] They have millions and millions of dollars? +[4325.18 --> 4325.82] That's what I said. +[4325.92 --> 4326.32] Apparently. +[4326.90 --> 4327.46] That's awesome. +[4327.50 --> 4329.40] So blah, blah, blah, Squarespace... +[4329.40 --> 4330.02] Oh, hold on. +[4330.12 --> 4331.24] Do they have like a leak of it? +[4331.24 --> 4332.12] Can we watch it? +[4332.42 --> 4332.86] They... +[4332.86 --> 4334.24] Super Bowl commercials are pretty legit. +[4334.48 --> 4335.32] It's not leaked. +[4335.64 --> 4337.02] They only have a teaser. +[4337.62 --> 4340.66] So they asked me to show the teaser, and I was like, yeah, sure. +[4340.80 --> 4341.24] Yeah, why not? +[4341.58 --> 4343.76] I mean, Super Bowl ads are kind of awesome. +[4343.84 --> 4344.94] I'm down with Super Bowl ads. +[4345.40 --> 4345.88] All right. +[4346.00 --> 4347.02] Where's the teaser video? +[4347.02 --> 4350.60] Even if I somehow miss the Super Bowl, I usually just go back on YouTube and watch all the ads. +[4351.58 --> 4353.02] Super Bowl ads are usually pretty legit. +[4353.40 --> 4354.04] Here it is. +[4355.00 --> 4355.36] Okay. +[4355.94 --> 4356.50] There we go. +[4356.76 --> 4357.22] There's a giant baby. +[4357.52 --> 4359.92] There is definitely a giant baby in their teaser. +[4361.24 --> 4365.24] Can you just be less of a huge piece of crap? +[4365.40 --> 4365.88] Thank you. +[4366.04 --> 4366.54] There we go. +[4367.04 --> 4367.46] All right. +[4367.72 --> 4370.42] It's funny, because I was so glad to have my laptop back for this week. +[4370.50 --> 4370.66] All right. +[4370.68 --> 4370.92] Here we go. +[4371.44 --> 4372.68] It's only about 15 seconds long. +[4372.68 --> 4398.48] So presumably it's something to do with their whole quest of making the web not look like a bunch of GeoCities websites and like flashing banners and stuff like that. +[4398.48 --> 4401.56] So their whole thing is beautiful design and tastefulness. +[4401.56 --> 4405.12] And that logo creator like spent two seconds in it. +[4405.18 --> 4405.32] It's kind of cool, hey? +[4405.32 --> 4405.92] It actually looks pretty good. +[4406.00 --> 4406.18] Yeah. +[4406.44 --> 4408.58] It's better than what I could do in Paint. +[4409.02 --> 4409.78] Paint.net. +[4410.16 --> 4412.84] Paint.net on the other hand, maybe I could do better. +[4413.72 --> 4414.70] But it would take more time. +[4414.96 --> 4415.20] Yes. +[4415.20 --> 4417.02] What? +[4417.14 --> 4417.46] Really? +[4417.86 --> 4419.68] You don't think I could do better than that in Paint? +[4419.68 --> 4423.00] Did you not see the uproar for your little badge things? +[4424.20 --> 4426.74] I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do about that. +[4426.90 --> 4432.30] Speaking of uproar, Apple is relaunching the iPhone 4? +[4432.66 --> 4438.38] At a very, very appealing price of only $370 for super old technology. +[4438.38 --> 4439.48] Seriously, Apple? +[4439.66 --> 4440.56] What are you doing? +[4441.06 --> 4442.48] They probably don't know. +[4443.00 --> 4444.12] They can't answer that question. +[4444.32 --> 4445.10] They have no idea. +[4445.24 --> 4451.10] I mean, if anyone at Apple is watching, I mean, Tim, if you're watching, give me a call right here. +[4451.52 --> 4453.24] Let me know what's going on, man. +[4453.70 --> 4455.92] Like, how can you possibly expect people? +[4455.96 --> 4459.06] Like, I understand why the iPhone 4 is still legitimately expensive. +[4459.70 --> 4460.64] I do get it. +[4460.74 --> 4461.52] And what did it have? +[4461.58 --> 4463.64] Something like four gigs of storage? +[4464.56 --> 4465.00] Yeah. +[4465.32 --> 4465.48] Yeah. +[4465.98 --> 4466.38] Eight? +[4467.04 --> 4467.76] Is it eight? +[4467.76 --> 4469.18] Eight gigabyte mobile models, yeah. +[4469.26 --> 4470.56] Yeah, eight gig models. +[4470.92 --> 4472.10] How high on candy is he? +[4472.28 --> 4476.50] One gigahertz single core CPU, 512 megs RAM, 5 megapixel rear camera. +[4476.64 --> 4478.62] It just, it sounds so old. +[4478.84 --> 4481.46] Like, it doesn't seem that bad necessarily when you're using it. +[4481.50 --> 4483.82] And then you read the specs on paper and you're just like, oh. +[4484.50 --> 4486.36] I understand why it's still expensive. +[4486.60 --> 4490.82] Because the actual, like, tooling of it and the, like, the fit and finish of it is beautiful. +[4490.82 --> 4495.70] Up there with almost any modern Android, pretty much any modern Android phone. +[4495.70 --> 4497.48] A lot of plastic being crap. +[4497.48 --> 4497.60] Yeah. +[4497.70 --> 4499.72] A lot of plastic junk on the Android side. +[4500.04 --> 4505.30] But to expect, like, to think that, first of all, to think that 5C was going to be your +[4505.30 --> 4508.62] value model at $100 cheaper than a 5S? +[4509.04 --> 4509.66] Come on. +[4509.66 --> 4510.66] Really? +[4510.66 --> 4510.78] Really? +[4510.78 --> 4510.86] Really? +[4510.86 --> 4511.22] Really? +[4511.22 --> 4511.50] Haha. +[4511.50 --> 4516.00] To think that iPhone 4, I mean, you're not even giving them the 4S. +[4516.00 --> 4522.48] To think that iPhone 4 is a value at $370 is insane. +[4522.48 --> 4525.82] I don't imagine that this is going to be a big success for them. +[4525.82 --> 4530.96] I mean, the problem that they have over there is that fewer carrier subsidies prevent people +[4530.96 --> 4532.56] from buying expensive phones. +[4532.56 --> 4539.56] Well, when you're considering that Motorola is talking about a $50 smartphone and that they +[4539.56 --> 4547.62] already have the Moto G, which is a $200, actually, fairly compelling smartphone. +[4547.62 --> 4549.48] I've just started working on my review of it. +[4549.48 --> 4551.76] I know I'm a little bit late, but sorry. +[4551.76 --> 4553.86] We're pretty late on a lot of our phones. +[4553.86 --> 4555.34] Yeah, we're pretty late on almost every phone. +[4555.34 --> 4560.78] So, holding a Moto G and holding an iPhone 4, I can go, yeah, this is a beautiful device, +[4560.78 --> 4565.52] but this one is way more functional in every possible way. +[4565.52 --> 4567.34] I just think this is ridiculous. +[4567.34 --> 4568.50] It's pretty dumb. +[4568.50 --> 4572.40] They just have no grasp on reality, I think, in that area. +[4572.40 --> 4573.40] We should do the next one. +[4573.40 --> 4574.96] Someone's like, Linus, why are you so mad? +[4574.96 --> 4575.22] Why? +[4575.22 --> 4576.22] Am I going to get mad again? +[4576.22 --> 4578.22] Oh, no, this isn't a mad thing. +[4578.22 --> 4579.96] No, I'm saying we should do it. +[4579.96 --> 4580.96] It's... +[4580.96 --> 4582.64] You put optional in brackets. +[4582.64 --> 4583.64] Yeah, this is happy. +[4583.64 --> 4584.64] I'm saying we should do it. +[4584.64 --> 4587.96] Members of the LTT Forum, World Cancer Day 2014. +[4587.96 --> 4594.96] Basically, this is just a call to arms to engage in distributed computing on this particular... +[4594.96 --> 4598.78] What can be folding is for a week of the World Cancer Day. +[4598.78 --> 4602.52] So it's not necessarily just World Cancer Day, it's the week that World Cancer Day lays on. +[4602.52 --> 4606.70] So it starts on Monday the 3rd of February and ends on Sunday the 9th. +[4606.70 --> 4608.12] Give your power to a good, decent cause. +[4608.12 --> 4614.56] I know not everyone can run folding or particularly folding 24-7, because it does +[4614.56 --> 4616.88] consume a lot of power and that does cost money. +[4616.88 --> 4621.32] But maybe one week out of the year is not such a bad thing if we all kind of work together. +[4621.32 --> 4621.88] So there you go, guys. +[4621.88 --> 4622.88] That's pretty cool. +[4622.88 --> 4623.88] You can check out the thread. +[4623.88 --> 4626.88] It was posted by Xsilent and then brackets X. +[4626.88 --> 4630.78] People need names that I can say on the show if they want me to say their names on the show. +[4631.26 --> 4634.70] And that's in the Folding at Home Boink and Coin Mining subforum. +[4635.70 --> 4636.42] Very cool. +[4637.58 --> 4639.92] And then, yeah, we're moving on. +[4640.76 --> 4643.26] Small town in Alberta gets gigabit broadband. +[4643.26 --> 4645.44] I'll let you talk about this, cause this is hilarious. +[4645.44 --> 4648.64] This brings up, actually, this is what I thought you were talking about, what I thought you were +[4648.64 --> 4650.64] going to transition into when you did the move thing. +[4651.10 --> 4651.54] Oh, okay. +[4652.66 --> 4656.96] But, yeah, apparently, so there's a small town in Alberta and the community council got together. +[4656.96 --> 4657.62] Okay, hold on, hold on. +[4657.64 --> 4658.14] I got another one. +[4658.42 --> 4661.44] Would you guys move to the freaking boondocks? +[4662.16 --> 4664.44] Like, the middle of nowhere, northern Alberta. +[4665.28 --> 4667.50] 8,500 people, entire population of city. +[4667.70 --> 4670.50] If the thing that he's about to talk about is a thing. +[4670.50 --> 4677.62] So, there was some apparently specific engineering businesses, but also other businesses that were +[4677.62 --> 4682.58] complaining that they were literally shipping drives because it was considerably faster. +[4683.04 --> 4687.96] Like, very considerably faster to ship a drive than it was to transfer something over the internet. +[4688.76 --> 4693.42] And this was like, locally or outside, they were just transferring drives all over the place. +[4693.72 --> 4694.68] They were saying it was ridiculous. +[4695.14 --> 4698.14] They were going to move and like, other towns, all this kind of stuff. +[4698.14 --> 4702.42] So, the council said, no, essentially, we don't want you to have to move because of internet speeds +[4702.42 --> 4703.14] because that's ridiculous. +[4703.46 --> 4706.30] So, they're pulling in a gigabit to the town. +[4706.62 --> 4709.94] Now, it's currently in certain locations, not everywhere. +[4710.08 --> 4714.38] You can currently pay for about $57 to $90 a month and you can get 100 megabit. +[4714.82 --> 4718.62] And they're going to take that and say like, yep, same cost, but it's gigabit. +[4718.78 --> 4724.02] Now, it's not quite as awesome as it sounds immediately because you will share with your node. +[4724.84 --> 4725.10] Okay. +[4725.10 --> 4727.02] So, if you get on a gigabit, you're sharing with your node. +[4727.66 --> 4734.22] But you're in a, like, I don't think, I don't think your neighbor is going to use 900 megabits a second. +[4734.56 --> 4735.60] I don't, like, I, yeah. +[4735.74 --> 4739.18] I'm not too worried about that, but that's just something you do have to pay attention to. +[4739.52 --> 4745.64] The average Canadian internet download speed is about 6.6 megabytes per second for an average of $54 a month. +[4746.30 --> 4749.12] So, that scaling, it's pretty ridiculous. +[4749.38 --> 4751.98] That price to performance ratio right there. +[4751.98 --> 4752.02] Yeah. +[4752.66 --> 4758.36] They're saying that they can do this because they don't have to worry about making massive profit margins all the time. +[4758.50 --> 4763.30] They just have to worry about making a little bit of money so that their council can still exist, obviously. +[4764.28 --> 4766.90] So, they're actually able to do this at a reasonable level. +[4767.08 --> 4773.24] They received a pretty sizable grant from the government, too, to actually do this because of what their whole plan is. +[4773.26 --> 4774.10] They're trying to keep people there. +[4774.16 --> 4776.00] They're trying to keep businesses there and all that kind of stuff. +[4776.00 --> 4777.04] So, it makes sense. +[4777.14 --> 4779.28] And they're not gouging people, so the government tries to help them. +[4779.58 --> 4783.30] The government actually tries to help a lot of companies that are laying infrastructure. +[4783.48 --> 4786.60] Just a lot of those companies don't really care and still screw people over. +[4787.76 --> 4791.66] And something that brings me back to the you're sharing it with the people around you discussion +[4791.66 --> 4796.18] is that if you're a business and you want a dedicated gigabit per second line, +[4796.58 --> 4800.40] like dedicated, going to be there, gigabit per second line, you'll have all that bandwidth all the time, +[4800.40 --> 4801.60] it's five grand. +[4802.86 --> 4803.94] So, it's like, no. +[4805.96 --> 4810.84] But I think they have one or two maybe businesses in mind when they have that there, +[4810.90 --> 4813.82] and they know they'll hit those two, and that's maybe where they're making some of the money back. +[4813.98 --> 4814.22] Right. +[4814.72 --> 4815.32] But, yeah. +[4815.44 --> 4817.70] Either way, again, investing in infrastructure. +[4818.10 --> 4819.16] It just makes sense. +[4819.18 --> 4819.70] Thumbs up. +[4820.02 --> 4820.24] Yeah. +[4820.66 --> 4821.12] Loving it. +[4821.54 --> 4821.86] All right. +[4822.54 --> 4823.46] Demystifying Crystal Cliff. +[4823.48 --> 4825.38] There was something that I wanted to talk about. +[4825.88 --> 4826.76] Not Bricks Pro. +[4827.28 --> 4827.68] Shoot. +[4828.00 --> 4828.76] I don't remember what it was. +[4828.76 --> 4831.26] Okay, do you want to do Demystifying Crystal Cove while you're at it? +[4831.46 --> 4835.30] I was thinking as we're getting fairly close and that video is up, +[4835.48 --> 4837.42] maybe we should jump to Candy Jam real quick. +[4837.62 --> 4838.92] Then maybe we can do that as like an ending. +[4838.92 --> 4839.14] Sure. +[4839.78 --> 4840.08] All right. +[4840.14 --> 4842.26] So, why have we been saying the word Candy Allstream? +[4842.54 --> 4845.16] For those of you who didn't watch the pre-show. +[4845.96 --> 4848.46] So, the Candy Jam, which is awesome. +[4848.64 --> 4852.14] And like, it's actually kind of hard to read because their website is ridiculous. +[4852.60 --> 4854.76] But I think that's kind of part of the joke. +[4855.50 --> 4857.58] So, I'm not going to harp on them too hard for that. +[4857.58 --> 4863.78] But what they say, if you're having trouble reading it, is because trademarking common words is ridiculous, +[4864.30 --> 4866.96] and because it gives us an occasion to make another game jam. +[4867.14 --> 4868.68] That's why this whole thing exists. +[4869.14 --> 4872.18] You have to make a game involving candies in some way. +[4872.28 --> 4874.14] Consider using the word candy several times. +[4874.48 --> 4878.52] Also, scroll, memory, saga, apple, and edge might give bonus points. +[4878.58 --> 4879.54] I'm not entirely sure why. +[4879.62 --> 4882.30] I don't think I've necessarily researched the topic deeply enough. +[4882.30 --> 4885.60] Maybe they're looking into trademarking those words as well. +[4885.92 --> 4887.22] It starts now. +[4887.32 --> 4888.14] You can go to it now. +[4888.26 --> 4889.48] It ends 3rd of February. +[4889.62 --> 4891.40] There's been 27 games submitted so far. +[4891.50 --> 4894.22] And you have an interesting contest, kind of. +[4894.38 --> 4894.70] Okay. +[4894.70 --> 4902.08] So, I'm putting up a $100 bounty to the first person who makes a game called Candy Ass Candy Eaters. +[4902.28 --> 4908.42] So, the objective of the game has to be that there's, like, people, and it can get more or less challenging. +[4908.68 --> 4909.12] Like, there can... +[4909.12 --> 4911.12] Like, think about all the game elements that exist. +[4911.12 --> 4916.56] So, you could have places where you're supposed to throw the candy, places where if you throw it, it's negative points. +[4916.62 --> 4920.18] Like, if a zombie eats it or something, then that's bad and that's negative points. +[4920.36 --> 4925.68] But the idea is that you throw candy at these people and they don't like getting hurt. +[4925.84 --> 4929.44] So, if you miss their mouths directly, then it's, like, somehow detrimental. +[4929.96 --> 4933.56] So, that's what makes them candy ass because they're, like, they don't like getting hit by candy. +[4933.74 --> 4939.66] And maybe they're running away from the candy as you're trying to feed it to them or something to make it, like, challenging or something like that. +[4939.66 --> 4942.14] So, I want that game to exist. +[4944.12 --> 4945.40] Only to the first one, though. +[4945.42 --> 4946.60] I'm not paying a bunch of these bounties. +[4946.92 --> 4948.08] I really hope someone makes it. +[4948.08 --> 4949.52] I don't really think they will, but I really hope they do. +[4949.52 --> 4950.08] I don't think anyone will. +[4950.60 --> 4957.50] And this whole thing is kind of horrible because every single time something like this happens, like, with the copyright complaints. +[4958.06 --> 4964.72] And, like, the main dude backing, like, yeah, we should have stronger copyright law pirated the background picture for his website. +[4965.14 --> 4966.96] And, like, this kind of stuff always seems to happen. +[4966.96 --> 4976.00] But King, the guys behind the copyright of the word candy, totally ripped the crap out of a game called Scamper Ghost back in the day. +[4976.10 --> 4978.70] So, there's Pack-A-Void and Scamper Ghost. +[4978.84 --> 4983.66] And as you go through here, you'll notice the screenshots are incredibly the same. +[4983.66 --> 4994.78] And what actually happened was they hired a company called, where is it, Epic Shadow, very specifically to copy Scamper Ghost. +[4995.18 --> 4997.50] It was like, go copy this game. +[4998.00 --> 4999.22] It was fairly straightforward. +[4999.22 --> 5011.10] The Scamper Ghost guys aren't mad at Epic Shadow because King, in their discussions with Epic Shadow, was saying that Scamper Ghost had a signed contract deal with King and then broke out of it. +[5011.16 --> 5012.40] And there's a whole bunch of stuff going on. +[5012.46 --> 5012.96] And there was issues. +[5013.06 --> 5015.86] And they were like, yeah, just go copy that game because that'll be the one actually published. +[5016.34 --> 5016.82] Blah, blah, blah. +[5016.82 --> 5017.42] Blah, blah, blah, blah. +[5017.42 --> 5024.36] And then Epic Shadow contacted Scamper Ghost at some point in time being like, yo, we thought you guys were the bad guys. +[5025.48 --> 5026.20] I don't know. +[5026.90 --> 5027.26] Yeah. +[5027.48 --> 5029.76] So, Scamper Ghost is not specifically mad at them. +[5030.50 --> 5031.52] They're mad at King. +[5031.62 --> 5035.54] And they're more specifically mad at King, actually, because of the candy copyright thing. +[5035.64 --> 5035.86] Right. +[5035.92 --> 5038.46] Because they're trying to copyright the word, or trademark the word candy. +[5038.50 --> 5038.72] Sorry. +[5038.84 --> 5038.96] Yeah. +[5039.04 --> 5039.40] Trademark. +[5039.56 --> 5040.04] To be clear. +[5040.04 --> 5043.10] I mean, I don't think we ever actually said that, which is ridiculous. +[5043.62 --> 5043.76] Yeah. +[5044.28 --> 5045.76] It's just candy and ridiculous. +[5045.76 --> 5045.88] Ridiculous. +[5046.28 --> 5048.34] That's absolutely candy and ridiculous. +[5048.48 --> 5055.74] So, yeah, I think it's funny that these guys are being super vocal now about the fact that King has done this instead of previously, +[5055.90 --> 5061.18] when it probably still would have gotten a lot of traction, but they're doing it now because of a copyright that doesn't have something to do with them. +[5061.26 --> 5062.44] I think that's actually really cool. +[5062.84 --> 5065.96] So, go play Scamper Ghost, because that's awesome. +[5067.06 --> 5068.20] Well, I think that's it. +[5068.20 --> 5074.60] I had something that I really wanted to talk about that wasn't on the doc, and I kind of thought of it, and then I forgot about it. +[5074.60 --> 5075.98] It wasn't Bricks Pro. +[5076.08 --> 5077.90] I don't know if I want to talk about that that much anymore. +[5078.56 --> 5079.42] It was something else. +[5079.82 --> 5084.50] For the demystifying Crystal Cove thing, the video is out right now, and it has a lot of it. +[5084.56 --> 5089.94] I'm probably going to be doing a long form written write-up at some point in time, because there's a lot of stuff that didn't make it into the video. +[5089.94 --> 5098.28] And there's actually a clip that was not put into the release video. +[5098.42 --> 5098.94] Oh, what's that? +[5100.82 --> 5101.18] Oh. +[5102.34 --> 5112.86] So, I say at one point in time, like, there are lenses A, B, and C, and I will talk about those more later, and that clip didn't end up making it in, so it made it really awkward. +[5112.86 --> 5118.98] I'm going to try and come up with some way to integrate that, but we can't exactly pull it down and re-release it now. +[5119.16 --> 5119.34] No. +[5119.56 --> 5125.32] So, I was thinking maybe I could upload it unlisted, and then link people to it on the forum or something. +[5125.52 --> 5125.70] Yep. +[5125.70 --> 5128.06] So, I'll probably do that so you guys can get that clip. +[5128.06 --> 5135.84] Or, if you come to the after party, I'll probably talk about Oculus even more and take questions and stuff like that. +[5136.10 --> 5136.94] That's when you talk about that there. +[5136.96 --> 5138.28] And there will be an after party tonight. +[5138.80 --> 5142.16] I don't necessarily know if I'll be gaming, but I'll be giving away games and talking about Oculus. +[5142.78 --> 5144.08] Yay, giving away games! +[5144.52 --> 5144.96] Hooray! +[5146.24 --> 5148.38] All right, well, I think I give up on this. +[5148.38 --> 5150.12] Oh, one last thing, actually. +[5150.46 --> 5151.78] One very final last thing. +[5152.10 --> 5155.84] We have an unofficial Linus Tech Tips star citizen group. +[5156.16 --> 5156.68] Oh, yes. +[5156.68 --> 5161.50] So, if you are interested in star citizen, Linus and I are both signed up, but it's unofficial because we're not leading it. +[5161.60 --> 5162.42] We're just going to kind of hang out. +[5162.44 --> 5163.36] We posted it on Facebook. +[5163.96 --> 5167.94] So, if anyone was curious what my reach is on Facebook, I guess you've all seen it now. +[5169.64 --> 5172.28] Let me just have a look here. +[5172.58 --> 5173.04] Star citizen. +[5173.72 --> 5176.50] It's the one with no picture because someone nubbed out. +[5176.56 --> 5176.82] Oops. +[5179.00 --> 5181.06] Oh, yeah, there it is. +[5181.34 --> 5182.40] So, LinusTechTips.com. +[5183.24 --> 5185.44] Speaking of would you move if you got faster internet. +[5185.44 --> 5186.24] Yeah, exactly. +[5186.68 --> 5188.36] No, I'm pretty sure that's Facebook's problem. +[5188.62 --> 5188.86] Oh. +[5189.32 --> 5192.30] Because they have a lot of this on mechanical drives now. +[5192.72 --> 5193.14] Oh, really? +[5193.24 --> 5199.12] Yeah, I think it used to be that your feed was in memory. +[5199.64 --> 5199.96] Ooh. +[5200.36 --> 5204.24] And now I think a lot of stuff, particularly images, are being pushed onto mechanical even. +[5204.24 --> 5210.12] So, Star Citizen organization now with added pull. +[5210.24 --> 5213.42] So, you can check out that thread on the forum if you are interested in it. +[5213.62 --> 5218.02] And as far as I can tell, they're being pretty open to ideas about how it's going to be ran and all this kind of stuff. +[5218.02 --> 5219.54] So, post in there, talk about it. +[5219.70 --> 5221.92] And it's quite a ways from being released. +[5222.00 --> 5223.30] So, we'll get some stuff more. +[5223.54 --> 5225.60] It's unofficial, to be clear, guys. +[5226.14 --> 5226.42] Yeah. +[5226.64 --> 5227.52] We're not running it. +[5227.68 --> 5227.96] Yeah. +[5228.28 --> 5229.38] But I joined it. +[5229.48 --> 5230.04] So did I. +[5230.20 --> 5230.36] Yeah. +[5230.36 --> 5230.76] Yeah. +[5231.70 --> 5232.06] Yeah. +[5232.24 --> 5233.56] I think that's probably about it. +[5234.46 --> 5235.82] Yeah, I give up on this. +[5236.86 --> 5237.26] Alright. +[5237.42 --> 5238.94] Thanks, guys, for watching The WAN Show. +[5239.04 --> 5240.32] We'll see you again next week. +[5240.42 --> 5242.02] Same bat time, same bat channel. +[5242.36 --> 5244.88] And the archive should actually be up fairly quickly. +[5245.04 --> 5247.10] So, I'll just throw it up without a table of contents. +[5247.58 --> 5252.38] And then when he gets around to it at apparently like 4 in the morning for whatever reason. +[5252.52 --> 5254.02] I was done way before that. +[5254.02 --> 5261.50] If anyone wants to do a table of contents and then like fire it over to him during the afterparty, that would be more than welcome. +[5261.64 --> 5262.14] That works too. +[5262.24 --> 5269.12] The one thing that I would ask is that you make sure to include an entry for the Squarespace sponsorship spot in case anyone wants to find that. +[5269.24 --> 5273.10] We do tell them that we will include a link in our table of contents to their sponsor spot. +[5273.10 --> 5275.60] And without further ado, thank you guys for watching. +[5275.70 --> 5276.98] Thank you, Squarespace, for sponsoring us. +[5277.08

40.12] It's the WAN Show time again. +[40.32 --> 45.16] It's Friday, and it's been a hell of a couple weeks, actually. +[45.32 --> 45.60] Yeah, it has. +[45.72 --> 47.28] I figured it out last night. +[47.34 --> 51.62] I was like, why am I so far behind on all of my work? +[51.98 --> 54.88] It's like, wait, because we did a lot of stuff. +[54.88 --> 62.94] In the last 10 business days, I have spent four of them in the office. +[64.30 --> 64.74] Okay? +[65.08 --> 65.88] Because I was at... +[65.88 --> 66.74] Four and a half. +[67.04 --> 69.84] Because I was at Highlander Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday last week, +[69.88 --> 73.56] and I dragged my tired ass into the office for Wednesday afternoon +[73.56 --> 74.90] and, like, wrote a script. +[75.02 --> 77.84] And I was like, zombie scripting. +[77.84 --> 81.84] And then I had Thursday before it was Friday, +[82.58 --> 85.54] where I go to NCIX and then do WAN Show, so it's a total write-off. +[85.92 --> 88.72] And then I came in this week, worked Monday. +[89.46 --> 90.90] Tuesday's a Canadian holiday. +[91.14 --> 91.98] It's Canada Day! +[92.24 --> 93.62] I wish I had a Canadian flag to wave. +[93.76 --> 94.32] Hooray! +[94.88 --> 96.08] I slept in and read a book. +[96.78 --> 97.68] I gardened. +[98.86 --> 99.84] We're awesome! +[100.00 --> 100.64] I know, right? +[101.58 --> 103.70] Seriously, I came in on Wednesday. +[103.70 --> 106.98] Anyway, so then I got to work Wednesday, Thursday this week, and that's it. +[107.06 --> 111.12] I've had four days to do all the things that I normally do in eight days. +[111.90 --> 113.00] Um, yay. +[113.14 --> 115.60] Anyway, so I was talking to Brandon when I came in. +[115.66 --> 117.76] We're filming something, and he's like... +[117.76 --> 119.52] I was like, he's like, what did you do on your day off? +[119.54 --> 120.70] I'm like, oh, I did gardening. +[120.84 --> 122.46] He's like, oh, that's stupid. +[122.60 --> 122.86] Why? +[123.28 --> 126.06] I'm like, because I'm a homeowner, asshole. +[127.22 --> 129.04] It's nice that you live with your parents. +[131.00 --> 132.00] Someone's got to do it. +[133.70 --> 137.94] I did my charity stream thing on the weekend because there was that extra day, though. +[138.56 --> 139.20] So that was cool. +[139.36 --> 142.64] So you could just be a zombie at work, and I probably wouldn't notice. +[142.64 --> 143.02] I was fine on Monday. +[143.02 --> 143.82] You were fine. +[143.96 --> 144.22] You were fine. +[144.22 --> 145.54] I was totally fine. +[146.18 --> 149.94] Because what I did was I forced myself to only sleep for, like, four hours or something, +[150.04 --> 153.16] and then I went to bed again at, like, 11 o'clock at night. +[153.16 --> 153.26] Right. +[153.34 --> 154.66] So then I got a full night of sleep. +[155.40 --> 157.48] Right, okay, that makes sense. +[157.48 --> 158.70] I guess I'll let it... +[158.70 --> 159.60] Just don't touch it. +[159.68 --> 160.58] Just don't touch it. +[160.68 --> 161.06] Get out. +[161.28 --> 161.52] Leave. +[161.88 --> 162.10] No. +[162.28 --> 162.54] Brandon! +[162.54 --> 162.74] Brandon! +[163.50 --> 164.56] Brandon, stop! +[165.88 --> 167.18] He runs away. +[167.64 --> 168.76] You have the door open! +[170.28 --> 171.62] Come back! +[172.02 --> 173.06] And then leave again. +[173.10 --> 175.30] You should throw something at him when he comes in range. +[175.44 --> 175.70] Boom! +[176.48 --> 178.56] You just got shave buttered! +[179.84 --> 182.24] Anyway, welcome to the show, guys. +[182.32 --> 185.08] We haven't actually managed to say or do anything yet. +[185.16 --> 187.08] There's a little bit of news this week. +[187.08 --> 190.14] There's a lot of little things, not a whole lot of big, exciting stuff. +[190.14 --> 190.46] Yeah. +[190.46 --> 199.32] Although one big exciting thing is Samsung has released the first SSD on the market with 3D NAND. +[199.54 --> 200.24] I like that. +[201.02 --> 201.50] 3D! +[201.86 --> 202.78] Oh, I see. +[202.96 --> 203.08] Okay. +[203.14 --> 203.38] NAND. +[203.50 --> 205.28] Now with 30% more 3D. +[205.28 --> 206.92] Anyway, so that's... +[206.92 --> 207.68] Do you need to put more D? +[207.82 --> 209.40] They talked about it at their summit. +[209.70 --> 214.64] You can't actually buy one yet, but it's coming soon, and this is exciting for a number of reasons. +[215.06 --> 221.52] Also in the news this week, 1080p, 60fps is, and I quote, a transformative experience. +[221.96 --> 224.96] Finally a game developer saying the right thing, and it's a console game. +[225.06 --> 226.04] Well, yeah. +[226.42 --> 227.50] The game he's talking about is... +[227.50 --> 228.88] We need more flags to wave. +[229.00 --> 230.50] I'll settle for a one-wipe Charlie. +[230.80 --> 231.16] Oh. +[231.64 --> 234.88] Actually, it's funny, because Dollar Shave Club isn't even a sponsor of the WAN show today. +[235.72 --> 240.16] Which is why you're using a one-wipe Charlie as a flag, which is white, and you're waving it like this. +[240.50 --> 241.22] So you're surrendering? +[241.30 --> 241.80] I'm not... +[241.80 --> 242.34] No, I'm not. +[242.48 --> 247.54] This is what the console people who think that 30fps is enough would be doing. +[247.54 --> 247.90] There we go. +[248.26 --> 249.22] Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo! +[249.62 --> 250.86] All right, what else we got today? +[251.02 --> 252.04] Tesla Model E. +[252.22 --> 253.88] I'm not going to say anything more than that. +[253.98 --> 255.38] Just Tesla Model E. +[255.40 --> 255.70] Yeah. +[255.70 --> 260.42] And Crytek UK staff not coming to work, which is not a... +[260.42 --> 261.76] Yeah, no, that's not good. +[262.08 --> 262.98] That's not good at all. +[263.12 --> 263.54] All right. +[266.48 --> 266.96] Awkward. +[267.48 --> 268.18] And that didn't work. +[268.40 --> 268.82] Nope. +[269.02 --> 270.24] I have to change the settings. +[270.68 --> 272.22] Do not remember playback position. +[273.20 --> 273.90] And we're back. +[273.90 --> 274.56] And back again. +[274.70 --> 275.64] And there we go. +[275.80 --> 276.12] Yay! +[277.64 --> 278.74] I love this show. +[280.08 --> 280.90] Oh, man. +[281.02 --> 284.12] We should just have, like, named it the new show. +[284.64 --> 285.48] Nothing ever works. +[285.48 --> 287.22] There you go. +[288.00 --> 288.96] The new show. +[289.06 --> 291.04] It's like news and nothing ever works. +[291.12 --> 293.48] It's like a double entendre. +[293.58 --> 293.84] Yeah. +[294.40 --> 295.32] It's like how PHP... +[295.32 --> 296.08] Freaking genius. +[296.32 --> 298.00] PHP, the P stands for PHP. +[298.92 --> 299.40] Really? +[299.60 --> 299.80] Yeah. +[300.10 --> 301.38] Oh, that's a terrible thing. +[301.78 --> 302.52] All right. +[302.66 --> 307.34] So, speaking of things that are not terrible, Squarespace is one of our sponsors today. +[307.46 --> 311.26] Get 10% off your Squarespace subscription with offer code Linus. +[311.26 --> 311.70] Yes. +[313.44 --> 317.80] Also a sponsor of the show, and this is a new sponsor today, is 5-4 Club. +[317.96 --> 323.70] They actually have a special 4th of July deal, which we'll tell you more about later on. +[324.14 --> 326.52] And actually, I completely did the wrong thing. +[326.60 --> 327.50] That wasn't what I meant to do. +[327.60 --> 328.02] Well, whatever. +[328.02 --> 330.28] The lower third is there, so you guys can... +[330.28 --> 330.36] It worked. +[330.36 --> 331.26] I gave away the deal. +[331.38 --> 332.82] I didn't mean to tell them the deal yet. +[332.92 --> 334.04] It was supposed to just be a little... +[334.04 --> 336.36] You meant to do the splash thing that we showed at the beginning, actually. +[336.48 --> 337.04] It's a slam. +[337.34 --> 337.54] Oh. +[338.12 --> 338.42] Yay! +[338.56 --> 339.78] Big freaking cable. +[341.24 --> 342.62] Anyway, don't look at the deal. +[343.12 --> 344.42] Listen to me talk about it later. +[344.52 --> 349.74] The point is 5-4 Club is good, and we have a special 4th of July deal for our American friends. +[350.02 --> 351.60] And also the Americans that we hate. +[352.14 --> 352.46] Oh. +[352.64 --> 353.58] Well, anyone can have it. +[353.76 --> 354.38] That's the point. +[355.12 --> 357.22] Do you hate any specific Americans? +[357.42 --> 357.58] No. +[358.82 --> 362.44] I'm just saying, I'm sure there's got to be one American that I can't stand. +[362.82 --> 363.14] Yeah. +[363.14 --> 364.06] I mean, Bieber. +[364.34 --> 365.72] He's basically American now. +[365.84 --> 366.84] He doesn't live here anymore. +[369.08 --> 370.26] He's yours now. +[371.48 --> 371.92] Owned. +[372.42 --> 372.90] Okay. +[373.20 --> 377.32] So let's move on to our very first topic of the day. +[377.84 --> 378.40] 850 Pro. +[378.88 --> 381.04] The 850 Pro. +[381.32 --> 381.72] 50 Pro. +[381.72 --> 383.10] I'm used to saying 40. +[383.56 --> 384.12] I'm on tech. +[384.20 --> 388.08] The site where I still go for most of my SSD coverage. +[388.30 --> 391.50] Because they still do a fantastic job of SSD coverage. +[391.70 --> 394.40] So the Samsung had a global summit. +[394.76 --> 396.64] They talked about VNAND. +[396.76 --> 399.38] They talked about, well, mostly they talked about NAND. +[399.50 --> 402.66] So what's the point of the 850 Pro? +[402.78 --> 403.58] What's good about it? +[403.62 --> 409.34] The 840 Pro has been on the market for a long, long time now. +[409.34 --> 415.70] And as disappointing as it is that Samsung hasn't released a new enthusiast professional +[415.70 --> 417.00] grade SSD in so long. +[417.00 --> 417.42] I thought you were talking about the 840. +[417.54 --> 418.58] I was like, I liked the 840. +[418.68 --> 419.50] Why is it disappointing? +[419.72 --> 419.82] Yeah. +[419.86 --> 420.14] No, no. +[420.20 --> 423.00] It's disappointing that they haven't released a new one in so long. +[423.00 --> 428.32] But the cold hard truth is that the 840 Pro never really got dethroned. +[428.88 --> 428.98] Nope. +[429.38 --> 431.70] Like it kind of did. +[431.86 --> 433.90] There's higher capacity drives now. +[434.56 --> 436.90] There are slightly faster drives now. +[437.12 --> 442.50] There are drives with better performance consistency, such as the Intel 730 series. +[442.50 --> 448.50] But in terms of just like defeating it across the board, the 840 Pro has held up incredibly +[448.50 --> 448.82] well. +[448.94 --> 453.72] Not to mention that Samsung's software suite enables it to perform even better. +[453.72 --> 457.30] So you can do things like you can cache the drive with RAM and all that kind of good stuff +[457.30 --> 457.74] as well. +[457.82 --> 460.52] They did release the Evo, but are you talking about like in that same series? +[460.78 --> 461.02] Yeah. +[461.18 --> 463.38] Well, the Evo's not as fast as the 840 Pro. +[463.56 --> 463.78] Yeah. +[463.96 --> 465.56] I'm just saying like they have released another. +[465.56 --> 471.48] So Samsung has dropped the 850 Pro on us now and it's faster. +[471.74 --> 472.86] It's higher capacity. +[472.98 --> 474.04] It goes up to one terabyte. +[474.32 --> 477.62] It will potentially deliver higher capacities in the future. +[477.84 --> 482.24] It actually lasts longer, which is the first time we've seen that in a while. +[482.34 --> 488.60] One of the big problems with SSDs as they've progressed throughout the generations is that +[488.60 --> 493.86] newer manufacturing processes have actually reduced their lifespans. +[493.86 --> 501.32] Now, a lot of noise gets made about that by hard drive manufacturers or just general, +[501.68 --> 505.50] you know, doom profits and those kinds of people. +[505.96 --> 510.96] But the cold hard truth is I believe it's tech report and I know that extreme systems have +[510.96 --> 516.72] got long-term SSD reliability tests where we've got SSDs that are rated for X number of +[516.72 --> 521.36] terabytes that are writing like a petabyte of data before they actually die. +[521.36 --> 526.58] It's endurance rated for 150 terabytes, but they have one in internal testing. +[526.68 --> 529.34] And this is for the 850 Pro, not for existing drives. +[529.48 --> 529.58] Yeah. +[529.76 --> 532.68] Internal testing that has gone through over eight petabytes. +[532.94 --> 535.86] So guys, don't read too much into those rated specs. +[536.00 --> 540.16] They have been getting lower as time goes on, but that's what's great about this new +[540.16 --> 541.56] NAND that Samsung has unleashed. +[541.56 --> 546.40] Samsung has actually been, you know, it's funny because we always expected it to be, you know, +[546.46 --> 551.10] the more, the more traditional guys like, you know, an Intel or a Micron to be pushing +[551.10 --> 552.14] all this stuff forward. +[552.56 --> 555.84] But Samsung was the first to do TLC. +[556.30 --> 560.28] So that's three bits per cell in their, uh, crap. +[560.40 --> 561.52] I'm blanking now. +[561.58 --> 562.54] What drive was that? +[562.64 --> 563.22] Model names. +[563.44 --> 564.20] Not good with them. +[564.36 --> 564.62] Yeah. +[564.62 --> 565.70] I think it was the 840. +[566.02 --> 566.34] Anyway. +[566.44 --> 567.26] Yeah, it was the 840. +[567.36 --> 570.30] So they were the first to do their, a TLC NAND drive. +[570.34 --> 570.78] That sounds right. +[570.82 --> 574.84] And they were able to achieve good enough reliability and performance to make it, uh, +[574.84 --> 576.24] an actual product out of it. +[576.28 --> 578.40] And now they're the first with 3D. +[578.80 --> 580.56] So I think, I don't know. +[580.62 --> 582.94] That's pretty much it other than giving you guys some specifics. +[582.94 --> 587.32] So we have a clicky link to the exact, uh, the exact specs here. +[587.96 --> 590.50] And it's funny because specs don't really change that much. +[590.50 --> 592.78] We're still going to be limited by the SATA 3 interface. +[593.14 --> 596.56] So you're still not going to see more than a hundred thousand random read IOPS. +[596.64 --> 599.36] You're still not going to see more than 90,000 random write IOPS. +[599.70 --> 605.22] But cool things about it are that the lowest capacity drive doesn't perform that much worse +[605.22 --> 606.54] than any of the others. +[606.56 --> 608.50] This is a 128 gig drive. +[608.60 --> 609.78] So it doesn't perform worse. +[609.78 --> 617.32] And the 128 gig model is the one that they have in testing writing over eight petabytes. +[617.32 --> 623.96] So typically whatever the lowest capacity one is performs the least well because it's not +[623.96 --> 627.66] able to take advantage of parallelization in its reads and writes. +[627.66 --> 634.08] And then it also typically is not going to last as long because just simple, it's actually +[634.08 --> 635.02] really simple math. +[635.08 --> 636.74] It's kind of cool how simple the math is. +[636.74 --> 642.98] When you have a higher capacity drive and a lower capacity drive and each NAND cell has +[642.98 --> 645.66] X number of writes of endurance. +[646.08 --> 649.90] If you write X number of terabytes to each of them, you're going to be filling this. +[649.96 --> 652.86] Let's say you write up the entire capacity of this drive and it's 10 times the capacity +[652.86 --> 653.18] of this. +[653.30 --> 657.26] You just wrote every cell here 10 times and every cell here once. +[657.40 --> 660.74] So a lower capacity drive is just inherently not going to last as long. +[660.74 --> 661.54] It's usually going to be slower. +[661.68 --> 662.58] It's not going to last as long. +[662.58 --> 668.04] So theoretically, if Samsung was running that test on their one terabyte drive, it could +[668.04 --> 669.06] have done 80 petabytes. +[669.66 --> 671.16] But that's, I mean, don't quote me on that. +[671.26 --> 672.82] That's not a rating. +[673.12 --> 677.94] It's just in theory, in theory, totally not. +[678.08 --> 678.22] Okay. +[678.30 --> 679.30] Just forget I ever said it. +[679.30 --> 680.76] He just said theory very many times. +[680.76 --> 680.94] Yeah. +[681.18 --> 681.80] Don't forget. +[682.22 --> 686.80] In theory, there's a lot of overhead involved in where leveling and the algorithms that keep +[686.80 --> 690.86] the NAND working for so long that will make it not scale 100% like that. +[690.86 --> 692.74] Let's just be really clear about that in the first place. +[693.10 --> 697.18] One of the other things that Samsung's really stepping up their game with on the 850 Pro +[697.18 --> 699.26] is that they're offering a 10-year warranty. +[700.24 --> 700.52] Whoa. +[701.58 --> 702.38] You didn't know that, did you? +[702.38 --> 703.18] I didn't know that part. +[703.44 --> 703.76] Yeah. +[703.92 --> 704.62] That's aggressive. +[704.96 --> 709.04] Five years was already, in my mind, pretty aggressive for a storage device. +[709.04 --> 716.38] I mean, when you think about what a warranty is, a warranty is within the reasonably usable +[716.38 --> 718.00] lifespan of the product. +[718.92 --> 720.14] This is going to work, dog. +[720.26 --> 721.50] Be confident buying it. +[721.80 --> 727.56] So for something like a computer, a three-year warranty is pretty good because you're probably +[727.56 --> 729.72] going to want to replace it with something faster by that point. +[729.72 --> 734.10] Or, you know, laptops, you'll probably have beaten them up by that point or whatever. +[735.70 --> 742.54] With a storage device, especially a little while ago when capacities were really scaling +[742.54 --> 745.26] fast, five years was kind of ridiculous. +[745.54 --> 753.10] I mean, drives that I have that are five years old are going to be like 320, 250 gig drives. +[753.36 --> 756.08] Even 120 gigabyte SSD in five years? +[756.08 --> 756.32] Yeah. +[756.48 --> 756.68] Dude. +[757.20 --> 757.84] It's like, what? +[758.84 --> 763.50] I mean, maybe part of it is that they're just that confident that they're all going +[763.50 --> 763.90] to last. +[764.02 --> 764.84] So whatever. +[765.00 --> 766.32] We'll just throw a 10-year warranty at it. +[766.34 --> 766.76] Who cares? +[767.24 --> 771.92] And then maybe part of it is just the whole RAM manufacturer mentality. +[772.24 --> 776.20] Where you know how every stick of RAM seemingly has a lifetime warranty on it? +[776.20 --> 776.30] Yeah. +[776.50 --> 776.62] Yeah. +[776.70 --> 778.40] And maybe it's just for much the same reason. +[778.46 --> 779.74] Maybe that's exactly it. +[780.12 --> 784.78] 10 years from now, no one's going to give two craps about this EDO RAM. +[784.78 --> 786.92] So whatever. +[787.26 --> 788.00] Lifetime warranty. +[788.30 --> 795.34] If they really want some SD RAM or they really want some DDR1 memory, it's five years, 10 years, +[795.46 --> 796.62] 25 years down the road. +[796.68 --> 797.44] Who gives a crap? +[797.50 --> 798.22] We'll just give it to them. +[798.72 --> 799.06] Yeah. +[799.06 --> 803.48] For the number of customers that are actually going to do that versus not having a competitive +[803.48 --> 806.04] warranty with what the other companies are offering. +[806.58 --> 809.96] I'll be interested to see if other guys match this. +[810.42 --> 812.54] Crucial is such a conservative company. +[813.02 --> 814.58] Intel is such a conservative company. +[814.58 --> 817.06] I mean, they blew me away when they offered a five-year warranty. +[817.46 --> 817.50] Yeah. +[817.60 --> 822.66] On an Intel CPU, which, let's face it, is going to last for five years or 10 years. +[822.86 --> 823.40] CPUs in general. +[823.60 --> 825.20] Have you ever seen a dead one? +[825.54 --> 825.80] No. +[826.90 --> 830.06] That wasn't like someone stepped on this. +[830.12 --> 830.32] Yeah. +[830.40 --> 831.10] Or something like that. +[831.10 --> 837.08] Like one that died in use where the person wasn't either A, dangerously overclocking it. +[837.08 --> 837.30] Yes. +[837.42 --> 841.14] Or B, like physically harmed it probably on purpose. +[841.24 --> 842.20] They just don't die. +[842.32 --> 842.48] No. +[842.70 --> 845.88] And they still only offer a three-year warranty on their processors. +[845.88 --> 850.86] So, I mean, for Intel to be confident enough to offer a 10-year warranty, they'd probably +[850.86 --> 853.12] have to be sure it's going to last for like 50 years. +[853.96 --> 856.82] Anyway, I'll be interested to see what comes of that. +[857.54 --> 858.76] Most things are over-engineered. +[858.90 --> 863.00] The rating on how much data is going to go through that SSD is probably over-engineered, +[863.30 --> 867.80] considering we're looking at eight petabytes in what they're actually doing and 150 terabytes +[867.80 --> 871.94] in the estimation, and warranties are definitely over-engineered. +[872.46 --> 876.44] If they're warranting it for a certain period of time, it's probably going to last a lot +[876.44 --> 877.08] longer than that. +[877.30 --> 877.52] All right. +[877.56 --> 879.66] So let's talk a little bit about the changes that they've made. +[879.70 --> 884.54] Now, I talked about how traditionally, as we've scaled down the manufacturing process +[884.54 --> 890.22] for NAND in order to drive capacity up and prices down, the reliability and the performance +[890.22 --> 891.18] has gotten worse. +[891.52 --> 896.74] This is just, it's just because things are getting so packed in that there's, things can +[896.74 --> 900.10] easily leak from one place to another, and it just, it just doesn't work that well at +[900.10 --> 900.90] such a tiny scale. +[901.00 --> 906.76] So now, instead of building out the NAND chips two-dimensionally, so where they're just spreading +[906.76 --> 910.38] things out, so they have to make everything smaller to keep everything close enough together +[910.38 --> 914.00] to even work, now Samsung is actually stacking it. +[914.04 --> 915.02] That's what 3D NAND is. +[915.08 --> 921.80] So instead of using a 10 nanometer class manufacturing process, they've actually relaxed to a 40 nanometer +[921.80 --> 923.30] class manufacturing process. +[923.66 --> 925.94] I mean, that's, that's like old stuff. +[926.22 --> 926.34] Yeah. +[926.74 --> 929.94] That's like a couple of gens ago, like CPUs. +[930.10 --> 931.32] That was advanced. +[931.32 --> 933.44] Like this is, yeah. +[933.68 --> 936.88] But that gives them that better reliability and that better performance. +[937.26 --> 940.72] And because they're stacking them, they can still scale capacity. +[940.88 --> 947.82] So we could expect to see as they scale the manufacturing back down again, much, much higher capacities +[947.82 --> 950.06] and much lower prices as time goes on. +[950.18 --> 951.74] Right now, it's cutting edge technology. +[951.74 --> 956.08] You're only going to find it in a pro class product, which as you can expect, the 850 Pro +[956.08 --> 961.04] is pretty expensive compared to more value oriented SSDs. +[961.08 --> 962.48] There's some pretty cheap SSDs out there. +[962.48 --> 967.62] I was going to say, it's only $10 more for 120 and 240 gig capacities compared to an 840 Pro. +[967.62 --> 971.96] And it is exactly $1 cheaper in the 480 gigabyte capacity. +[971.96 --> 972.20] Yeah. +[972.20 --> 977.70] So that puts it actually very competitively priced against other premium drives from guys +[977.70 --> 989.62] like Intel with their 730, but not even close to value stuff like Crucial's M550, which comes in at only around just under $300 for a 500 gig class drive. +[989.62 --> 991.06] Which is crazy. +[991.06 --> 992.66] I mean, is it finally happening? +[992.76 --> 993.80] Are SSDs cheap now? +[993.96 --> 996.04] I don't necessarily think we're quite there yet. +[996.12 --> 1003.48] I think it's cheap enough that like every single time I see a build, I'm trying to help them balance their build out so that they can get an SSD in there. +[1003.56 --> 1003.76] Right. +[1003.92 --> 1005.90] Because it's worth it at this point. +[1006.16 --> 1009.44] But I don't see a ton of people going SSD only systems yet. +[1010.28 --> 1017.96] I see it a lot more and I am seeing it in general, but I still see a lot of people throwing in like at least two terabyte hard drive in most of their systems. +[1017.96 --> 1019.02] Yeah, now that you mention it. +[1019.02 --> 1019.96] Games are still really big. +[1020.40 --> 1022.94] And a lot of games coming out are like 50 gigs, which is insane. +[1023.14 --> 1026.60] I feel like I did miss something on my Blade 14 review. +[1026.78 --> 1029.12] Now that you're mentioning that, now that I'm thinking about it. +[1029.16 --> 1031.08] The Blade 14 is an amazing machine. +[1031.46 --> 1032.86] Just a spoiler alert, guys. +[1032.92 --> 1034.94] That's actually going to come out sometime next week. +[1035.24 --> 1039.16] And for the first time ever, I awarded something an Editor's Choice Award. +[1039.30 --> 1040.76] I don't want us to start doing that. +[1040.82 --> 1041.24] I don't care. +[1041.32 --> 1041.74] It's perfect. +[1042.18 --> 1042.48] Almost. +[1043.36 --> 1044.02] It's almost. +[1044.62 --> 1046.36] I'm probably never going to award one again. +[1046.36 --> 1048.58] In five years, I've done it once. +[1048.80 --> 1050.24] So let's just leave it at that. +[1051.04 --> 1054.08] But it's absolutely fantastic. +[1054.52 --> 1062.86] Although, now that you mention it, the problem is that in order to make it fit in that amazing form factor, they've got one M.2 SSD. +[1063.46 --> 1064.64] And that was all that was going to fit. +[1064.70 --> 1066.90] There is no two and a half inch drive cage. +[1067.98 --> 1071.84] So you're a little bit limited in terms of storage. +[1071.84 --> 1076.74] The most you can do is they've got a 512 gig laptop option. +[1077.10 --> 1079.14] And then you have to basically buy that up front. +[1079.72 --> 1085.24] They don't even, actually, another knock that I did mention in the review is that it does not have upgradable RAM. +[1086.06 --> 1088.72] It has a soldered 8 gigs of RAM. +[1088.92 --> 1089.22] What? +[1089.32 --> 1090.90] There is no 16 gig option. +[1091.68 --> 1093.60] So they got called out pretty hard for that. +[1093.72 --> 1097.28] This basically perfect judgment seems slightly... +[1097.28 --> 1097.84] It's... +[1097.84 --> 1099.02] Have you used it? +[1099.28 --> 1099.50] No. +[1099.50 --> 1101.98] Okay, well, it's pretty amazing. +[1102.16 --> 1104.26] I mean, having an 870M in this... +[1104.26 --> 1104.30] Can it be this? +[1105.12 --> 1105.38] No. +[1106.30 --> 1108.20] But I don't necessarily care about that. +[1108.26 --> 1110.86] I don't use the tablet-iness of this very often. +[1111.00 --> 1116.82] I mean, in my Surface Pro, I think I estimated 2% of the time that I use this notebook, I'm using the tablet. +[1117.00 --> 1118.28] That was probably aggressive. +[1118.62 --> 1124.08] When I had a laptop that could turn into a tablet, I actually used it a lot. +[1124.36 --> 1124.68] Okay. +[1125.00 --> 1126.96] But then that's going to vary. +[1127.24 --> 1128.98] So if it doesn't matter to you, then it doesn't matter to you. +[1128.98 --> 1131.44] And the 870M doesn't throttle. +[1132.32 --> 1132.98] That's kind of cool. +[1133.04 --> 1133.30] Which is... +[1133.30 --> 1134.74] It actually boosts a little bit. +[1135.30 --> 1137.74] And that was two days ago when it was super hot. +[1137.88 --> 1138.32] Yeah, yeah. +[1138.36 --> 1139.02] That was really hot. +[1139.24 --> 1139.56] So... +[1139.56 --> 1140.30] Okay, we need to... +[1140.30 --> 1141.96] I don't like that repeatedly hitting the cable. +[1142.38 --> 1142.66] Brandon! +[1143.30 --> 1143.52] Huh? +[1143.60 --> 1144.26] It's not a big deal. +[1144.28 --> 1144.62] I'll grab it. +[1144.90 --> 1146.18] Okay, we want to move on to our next topic? +[1146.44 --> 1146.78] Sure. +[1146.90 --> 1148.64] If I can figure out what it is. +[1148.64 --> 1148.98] Ow! +[1149.18 --> 1149.58] Don't. +[1149.88 --> 1151.42] Thank you for sitting on my headphones. +[1151.56 --> 1152.18] You put it there. +[1152.18 --> 1154.64] I did not put my headphones under your butt. +[1154.68 --> 1155.14] Are you sure? +[1155.30 --> 1155.86] Yeah, I'm sure. +[1157.36 --> 1161.34] Pretty sure the butt would have had to get there after the headphones did. +[1161.52 --> 1162.34] I don't know. +[1163.38 --> 1164.22] I don't know. +[1164.36 --> 1167.84] Anyways, Tesla Model E 30,000. +[1167.84 --> 1170.66] How did I know that that topic was going to be the first one you brought up? +[1170.74 --> 1172.38] It's the next one in the dock! +[1172.60 --> 1173.76] I didn't even... +[1173.76 --> 1175.04] Maybe that's how I knew. +[1175.40 --> 1175.62] Why? +[1175.70 --> 1177.32] What did you think I was implying? +[1177.70 --> 1181.46] Alright, so we're going to head over to our good buddy John Rettinger's website. +[1181.84 --> 1183.88] Techno Buffalo is our source for this one. +[1184.40 --> 1189.70] At 30 grand, the Tesla Model E will be the company's most affordable car. +[1189.70 --> 1192.52] I want to know when they're going to release a Model T. +[1194.22 --> 1195.48] They should totally do it. +[1195.48 --> 1197.96] Like a retro-looking electric car? +[1198.10 --> 1199.60] That would be really cool, actually. +[1199.66 --> 1200.46] That would be badass. +[1200.52 --> 1201.48] You know those like... +[1202.26 --> 1204.48] Now I'm going to say steampunk, but it's not right. +[1204.72 --> 1210.12] But when it looks old, but they just put the nice cool blue LED lighting in it and stuff. +[1210.58 --> 1212.68] And it makes it look like this weird mashup. +[1212.74 --> 1213.78] That would be so sweet. +[1214.28 --> 1215.20] I would love to... +[1215.20 --> 1216.38] A wood-paneled Tesla? +[1216.38 --> 1219.84] I'm sure Ford would not have any of that. +[1220.14 --> 1220.34] No! +[1220.84 --> 1222.92] But it would be pretty awesome. +[1222.92 --> 1228.58] Or if they did like the Model horizontal and vertical line. +[1228.66 --> 1229.54] And then they used the Tesla T. +[1230.70 --> 1232.14] I don't think they'd get away with it. +[1232.80 --> 1234.10] But that would be so cool. +[1234.12 --> 1238.30] They could just call it the Model and then put the symbol for the Tesla T on the side of it. +[1238.32 --> 1239.16] The Tesla Model. +[1239.44 --> 1240.22] The Tesla Model. +[1240.24 --> 1241.80] Do it as like a limited edition run? +[1242.28 --> 1243.42] I would love to see that. +[1243.50 --> 1245.94] So you can't say it's the Model T. +[1246.74 --> 1247.42] Messaging Nick. +[1247.52 --> 1247.92] Oh. +[1247.92 --> 1250.44] I better make sure there's nothing incriminating here. +[1250.72 --> 1251.02] God. +[1254.92 --> 1255.40] Oh. +[1260.40 --> 1260.76] Okay. +[1260.90 --> 1261.52] Well, that's good to know. +[1261.78 --> 1262.08] Okay. +[1262.50 --> 1264.82] So let's go ahead and... +[1264.82 --> 1265.08] Oh, yeah. +[1265.08 --> 1265.46] That's fine. +[1266.04 --> 1266.98] Not really, but sure. +[1267.04 --> 1267.52] We'll go with it. +[1268.06 --> 1269.92] What was I going to say? +[1270.08 --> 1272.16] There's not a ton of information yet. +[1272.24 --> 1274.16] It would be launching in about 2016. +[1274.76 --> 1275.12] Yeah. +[1275.28 --> 1276.70] So we're not exactly close. +[1276.94 --> 1280.56] It's expected to be about 20% smaller than the current Model S. +[1280.68 --> 1280.82] Yeah. +[1280.86 --> 1283.72] And they're going to drop things like they're probably going to be swapping out aluminum +[1283.72 --> 1285.38] for steel and a few other things like that. +[1285.42 --> 1287.16] But like it's a way cheaper car. +[1287.78 --> 1288.34] Thank you. +[1288.44 --> 1291.20] Can you like push the cable down and then close the door so you don't... +[1291.20 --> 1293.00] So they don't jam the... +[1293.00 --> 1293.88] Thank you. +[1294.52 --> 1294.92] Thank you. +[1296.04 --> 1296.72] Don't... +[1296.72 --> 1299.00] Has he done it to your satisfaction? +[1299.44 --> 1299.68] Yes. +[1299.86 --> 1300.14] All right. +[1300.14 --> 1306.14] We just finished like terminating a whole bunch of Cat 6A and that cable is huge. +[1306.44 --> 1309.24] And it's going under the doors and it keeps getting slammed on by the doors and I don't +[1309.24 --> 1310.40] want to destroy my work. +[1310.44 --> 1311.60] Probably slam resistant. +[1312.56 --> 1315.20] I mean, it's pretty beast in every other possible way. +[1315.38 --> 1315.74] It is. +[1315.96 --> 1319.38] I think this is actually really cool because I'm not going to go out and buy a new one, +[1319.38 --> 1324.28] but that means if it starts at 30 grand years afterwards, it will have to be cheaper. +[1324.70 --> 1324.82] Right. +[1326.16 --> 1327.30] I'm pretty stoked. +[1327.30 --> 1334.60] I mean, the big thing turning me off of the Model S is number one, that I don't buy new +[1334.60 --> 1336.44] cars because I think it's insane. +[1336.70 --> 1338.98] And there's like not enough of them because it's at a weird price bracket. +[1339.02 --> 1339.18] Yeah. +[1339.26 --> 1343.88] And then number two is that there's not enough used ones. +[1344.22 --> 1344.36] Yeah. +[1344.86 --> 1345.10] Yeah. +[1345.20 --> 1347.46] So I guess those are both really the same thing. +[1347.74 --> 1348.86] Also, it's very, very expensive. +[1349.02 --> 1353.98] So I used Model E a few years after it comes out. +[1354.48 --> 1356.08] That's going to be when I go electric. +[1356.08 --> 1360.64] And especially if they have that very aggressive battery swapping stuff going on. +[1361.14 --> 1361.46] Yes. +[1361.94 --> 1362.80] That would be pretty sweet. +[1363.06 --> 1363.44] I don't know. +[1363.64 --> 1365.04] I'm pretty excited about this actually. +[1365.46 --> 1365.62] Yeah. +[1365.68 --> 1366.60] I needed something like that. +[1366.66 --> 1368.30] It's going to be cheaper constructed. +[1368.60 --> 1371.12] I'll be surprised if they can achieve the same range with it. +[1371.20 --> 1374.42] They're expecting steel construction instead of aluminum construction. +[1375.12 --> 1377.52] It's going to come out after the Model X. +[1377.52 --> 1378.94] So that's the SUV model. +[1379.16 --> 1380.40] So no time soon. +[1380.58 --> 1385.64] But word on the street is it's going to be priced to compete with the Audi A4 and BMW +[1385.64 --> 1387.14] Compact 3 series. +[1387.14 --> 1391.54] And if they do this and if they keep dropping rumors and stuff like that, that means other +[1391.54 --> 1392.76] people are probably going to do it too. +[1393.08 --> 1395.26] And competition in the electric vehicle space is good. +[1395.44 --> 1395.72] Yeah. +[1395.90 --> 1397.06] I'm super stoked on that. +[1397.12 --> 1398.22] I'd love to drive an EV. +[1398.64 --> 1398.88] Yeah. +[1399.04 --> 1400.02] That would be fantastic. +[1400.22 --> 1403.56] Because gas prices where we live are dumb. +[1403.76 --> 1404.18] Yeah. +[1404.26 --> 1405.52] Not if that is Europe, mind you. +[1405.62 --> 1406.54] But still dumb. +[1406.74 --> 1407.04] Yes. +[1407.64 --> 1408.10] All right. +[1408.24 --> 1409.28] So let's go ahead. +[1410.38 --> 1414.32] And this was originally posted on the forum by Top War Gamer. +[1415.02 --> 1416.84] Still trouble at Crytek. +[1417.10 --> 1418.32] This was actually a few days ago. +[1418.42 --> 1420.10] It's not really like news news. +[1420.24 --> 1423.58] But there hasn't been anything else that's come out in the last couple of days. +[1423.70 --> 1425.24] So I checked it out. +[1425.52 --> 1426.60] Or at least today. +[1427.18 --> 1428.10] Oh, you mean about this? +[1428.18 --> 1428.94] Yeah, about this. +[1428.94 --> 1429.04] Yeah. +[1429.04 --> 1434.12] So basically there were rumors that Crytek was on the brink of bankruptcy. +[1434.12 --> 1438.78] And then they came out and were like, no, no, that's not happening at all. +[1438.92 --> 1440.42] We're just not paying our employees. +[1441.06 --> 1441.30] Yeah. +[1441.48 --> 1445.56] But there are multiple internal sources coming out saying they haven't been paid properly +[1445.56 --> 1446.48] since April. +[1447.20 --> 1450.64] And apparently an estimated, what was it? +[1450.68 --> 1452.60] Something like a hundred staff? +[1452.84 --> 1453.04] Yeah. +[1453.18 --> 1458.40] The studio estimates that around a hundred people have left after filing grievances. +[1458.70 --> 1460.20] A person familiar with the studio. +[1460.30 --> 1460.46] Yes. +[1460.72 --> 1461.14] Sorry. +[1461.26 --> 1461.42] Sorry. +[1461.42 --> 1461.70] Sorry. +[1462.02 --> 1463.16] Person familiar with the studio. +[1463.16 --> 1466.82] That about a hundred people have left after filing grievances. +[1467.04 --> 1469.20] It's unclear if they're leaving permanently. +[1469.60 --> 1474.38] If they're just kind of waiting for Crytek to get their stuff together. +[1474.82 --> 1481.16] Apparently it's gone as far as employees at Crytek UK are like publicly hoping that Deep Silver +[1481.16 --> 1481.84] buys them. +[1482.56 --> 1485.54] So like, I think this has kind of been going around for a while. +[1485.64 --> 1486.68] It's just been under a cap. +[1487.38 --> 1487.64] Yeah. +[1487.64 --> 1488.86] Which is kind of sketchy. +[1488.96 --> 1489.74] The cat's out of the bag. +[1489.74 --> 1490.58] I mean... +[1490.58 --> 1494.00] You can't imagine the Xbox One launch sales were that amazing, especially when Rise got +[1494.00 --> 1496.10] slammed by like every reviewer ever. +[1496.36 --> 1496.84] Yeah. +[1497.08 --> 1498.70] It really wasn't reviewed very well. +[1498.78 --> 1500.88] And then they just launched their, uh... +[1500.88 --> 1501.42] What's this thing? +[1501.48 --> 1502.40] What's this game called? +[1503.16 --> 1504.66] Crytek's new game, War something? +[1507.46 --> 1507.94] War... +[1507.94 --> 1508.98] War... +[1508.98 --> 1510.66] Yeah, they just launched a free-to-play game. +[1510.72 --> 1511.44] I can't even remember. +[1511.56 --> 1512.32] Nobody cared. +[1512.50 --> 1512.76] I... +[1512.76 --> 1515.86] I hadn't even heard of it until they just launched it. +[1515.86 --> 1516.00] Warface. +[1516.08 --> 1516.52] Yeah, Warface. +[1516.52 --> 1519.02] I thought it was Warface, but I was like, that name seems so generic. +[1519.54 --> 1520.38] It can't be that. +[1520.98 --> 1521.98] Yeah, so War... +[1521.98 --> 1523.26] Warface is out, um... +[1523.26 --> 1523.86] It's on Steam? +[1524.28 --> 1524.56] Yeah. +[1526.90 --> 1527.82] Yeah, no, like... +[1527.82 --> 1529.48] No one... +[1529.48 --> 1530.18] No one cared. +[1530.18 --> 1531.42] I thought it was a console thing. +[1531.50 --> 1532.00] At all. +[1532.10 --> 1534.76] So it's a free-to-play slash pay-to-win type game. +[1534.96 --> 1536.96] Oh, that's why I haven't heard of it and didn't care. +[1537.34 --> 1537.98] That makes sense. +[1538.56 --> 1539.10] Oh, God. +[1539.30 --> 1539.76] That, yeah. +[1539.94 --> 1542.18] So, so that's, that's, I mean, that's where they're at. +[1542.24 --> 1544.44] I mean, they don't charge much to license their engine. +[1544.64 --> 1547.10] And that's something that a lot of gamers are concerned about. +[1547.18 --> 1551.28] What happens to games that rely on CryEngine right now? +[1551.34 --> 1553.46] I mean, is the, is the engine going to get ongoing support? +[1553.46 --> 1554.24] How's this going to work? +[1554.32 --> 1556.94] I mean, has Crytek just overstretched their bounds? +[1557.04 --> 1558.98] They have, what, nine studios now? +[1559.16 --> 1559.90] Nine locations? +[1559.90 --> 1564.00] And you're kind of looking at it going, well, how many games do you actually make? +[1564.76 --> 1566.20] Like, what do you people do all day? +[1566.40 --> 1571.92] Well, Crytek, yeah, Crytek UK closing down isn't going to close down the whole of Crytek. +[1571.92 --> 1575.44] No, but if they can't pay Crytek UK, then... +[1575.44 --> 1576.32] That is kind of an issue. +[1576.52 --> 1577.14] Yeah, you're right. +[1577.94 --> 1578.64] But I don't know. +[1578.64 --> 1581.02] I'm not super worried about their engine at this point. +[1581.02 --> 1585.98] But then again, at the same point in time, big people like Star Citizen are just chopping +[1585.98 --> 1587.34] the crap out of the engine anyways. +[1587.68 --> 1589.14] So it probably won't even matter. +[1589.64 --> 1589.74] Right. +[1589.74 --> 1595.54] Because at this point in time, I'm sure whatever they're working with is so far away from the +[1595.54 --> 1599.70] original design that any updates to it, they'd probably have to pretty much do themselves +[1599.70 --> 1599.96] anyway. +[1600.84 --> 1601.94] So, I don't know. +[1602.14 --> 1605.68] But then smaller studios that would want to use Crytek extension because it is beautiful +[1605.68 --> 1610.58] and is actually pushing limits on PC hardware, unlike a lot of different engines, might have +[1610.58 --> 1612.50] issues because they would have to rely much more heavily. +[1612.56 --> 1617.30] I mean, I think that's the thing that I'll both miss about the most and regret that they +[1617.30 --> 1624.06] didn't stick to is the fact that they were willing to push the PC beyond its limits and build +[1624.06 --> 1625.26] something that was truly groundbreaking. +[1625.26 --> 1631.28] I mean, the thing about that, though, is the last time they did that was a really long time +[1631.28 --> 1631.50] ago. +[1631.50 --> 1631.82] Yes. +[1631.82 --> 1636.34] So you kind of look at it and you go, okay, well, how bad do I feel for you? +[1636.74 --> 1641.78] Because you became a big deal when you released Far Cry and Crysis. +[1641.78 --> 1642.58] Back to back. +[1642.58 --> 1648.44] You were this upstart that came out of nowhere and released Far Cry, what was effectively +[1648.44 --> 1651.74] the first, at the time, what we were calling next-gen FPS. +[1652.38 --> 1655.98] So it was Far Cry, Doom 3, and Half-Life 2. +[1656.28 --> 1659.50] And Far Cry was never even on the list until it came out. +[1659.98 --> 1661.34] And people were like, what? +[1661.34 --> 1661.68] What? +[1662.22 --> 1663.46] Where did this come from? +[1663.66 --> 1664.44] Literally nowhere. +[1665.22 --> 1665.74] What? +[1665.74 --> 1668.56] And it looked as good or better than those other games. +[1668.64 --> 1670.86] Like, it was, they were in the same class. +[1671.18 --> 1673.06] And then they released Crysis. +[1673.52 --> 1678.54] And then Crysis 2 was kind of that, but, like, not as much. +[1678.62 --> 1680.12] And then Crysis, whatever. +[1680.26 --> 1680.48] Anyway. +[1681.10 --> 1686.56] So they got away from their roots, which was building really demanding, open-style games. +[1686.98 --> 1688.72] And they got kind of samey about it. +[1688.72 --> 1695.06] And then now they did, like, a super samey, you know, Roman game as a console exclusive. +[1695.06 --> 1697.90] And you're just kind of sitting here going, okay, well, I'm sorry you're in trouble. +[1698.48 --> 1698.76] But. +[1699.48 --> 1700.38] Not making them wrong. +[1700.54 --> 1701.18] The right moves. +[1701.70 --> 1702.00] Dog. +[1702.14 --> 1702.54] I don't know. +[1702.68 --> 1705.74] Like, they were all, they were all butthurt about piracy of Crysis. +[1706.00 --> 1710.16] And so they were like, okay, well, um, you know, we're not going to do PC exclusives anymore. +[1710.68 --> 1711.40] And then. +[1712.42 --> 1714.10] Except that's what made your company big. +[1714.30 --> 1718.24] So, apparently, in spite of the piracy, you were doing fine and now you're not. +[1718.24 --> 1719.22] So, I'm not sure. +[1719.24 --> 1722.12] I think a lot of people interpret pirate numbers very incorrectly. +[1722.92 --> 1726.38] You can't just be like, look at all that potential money that we didn't get. +[1726.52 --> 1728.18] We're going to write that down as a loss. +[1728.34 --> 1729.52] That's not how that works, man. +[1730.34 --> 1731.48] That is not how that works. +[1731.56 --> 1735.82] A lot of those people would have never even thought of possibly buying that game in the first place. +[1735.96 --> 1740.84] And then, honestly, a not tiny percentage of those people would have played it, thought it was cool, and then bought it. +[1741.96 --> 1743.38] I know people that do that. +[1743.52 --> 1744.80] I know people that do that, too. +[1744.84 --> 1746.74] But I also know people that don't do that. +[1746.88 --> 1747.50] I do as well. +[1747.66 --> 1747.90] So. +[1747.90 --> 1748.92] I know both sides. +[1749.36 --> 1751.60] I'm just saying that those people do exist. +[1752.00 --> 1752.34] They do exist. +[1752.34 --> 1754.52] They're not a huge percentage, but they do exist. +[1754.82 --> 1763.46] I think that the number of those people who think they exist versus the number of those people that actually exist is. +[1764.00 --> 1771.24] I know a lot of people that also claim to be in that group and then finish the game and just go like, oops, guess I'm done already. +[1771.58 --> 1772.30] I'm like, no. +[1772.64 --> 1772.88] Yeah. +[1773.00 --> 1773.94] That's not how that works. +[1773.94 --> 1778.40] People are saying, I pirated it and then bought it and like, yeah, that's fine. +[1778.70 --> 1779.42] You did. +[1779.42 --> 1787.08] And like, pirating it on day one and then buying it when it's $2 on a Steam sale two years later is not the same. +[1789.30 --> 1790.96] It's like, not the same at all. +[1791.86 --> 1792.84] You know, it's funny. +[1792.96 --> 1800.12] Actually, after last week's WAN show, when I said all that unpopular stuff about how pirates are wrong, the comments were hilarious. +[1800.12 --> 1803.08] Because people are like, well, there's no demo. +[1803.30 --> 1804.22] So what can we do? +[1804.76 --> 1807.28] And on Twitter, I'm like, well, just don't play. +[1807.58 --> 1808.78] And they're like, well, we're gamers. +[1809.28 --> 1810.24] We can't not play. +[1811.06 --> 1813.82] I'm like, what are you talking about? +[1814.18 --> 1818.96] If you don't buy, if everyone just stops buying Call of Duty 18. +[1819.36 --> 1820.16] There will be demos. +[1820.32 --> 1820.98] There will be a demo. +[1821.54 --> 1822.88] They will need to sell it. +[1823.08 --> 1824.16] There will be a free weekend. +[1824.44 --> 1825.24] There will be this. +[1825.40 --> 1826.22] There will be that. +[1826.22 --> 1830.94] It'll happen if you all just refuse to buy it and don't play it. +[1831.60 --> 1832.04] Yeah. +[1832.76 --> 1835.02] And lots of games still do have demos. +[1835.44 --> 1835.78] And honestly. +[1836.04 --> 1838.32] Demo those games and then buy them. +[1838.50 --> 1839.48] Demo those games and then buy them. +[1839.58 --> 1843.82] Steam actually has a pretty aggressive demo availability, which is pretty nice. +[1843.94 --> 1845.68] I know when Child of Light came out. +[1845.86 --> 1846.04] Yeah. +[1846.18 --> 1847.30] Really interesting looking game. +[1847.34 --> 1849.42] I was like, wow, it's kind of expensive though. +[1849.52 --> 1850.98] And I don't really know anything about it. +[1851.04 --> 1851.72] Oh, there's a demo. +[1852.42 --> 1854.62] It's like full access to the game or something for three days. +[1854.62 --> 1855.48] I was like, oh, sweet. +[1855.96 --> 1856.44] That's cool. +[1856.52 --> 1856.74] Awesome. +[1857.28 --> 1861.00] And I mean, you know, the other thing too is like, and the people saying, because I think +[1861.00 --> 1861.88] I made some analogy. +[1861.98 --> 1864.58] I was like, well, I'm a scuba diver, but I haven't been in a few years. +[1864.70 --> 1866.40] And people are like, well, then you're not a scuba diver. +[1866.46 --> 1867.86] You're someone who knows how to scuba dive. +[1868.10 --> 1871.14] You know, for me to be a gamer, I have to, I have to play the games. +[1871.14 --> 1874.84] And I'm just kind of sitting here going, well, actually, I disagree with that because +[1874.84 --> 1879.90] it makes gamers sound like pathetic addicts, not like people who are making a conscious +[1879.90 --> 1882.06] decision about how they want to live their lives. +[1882.22 --> 1883.32] And I don't think that's fair. +[1883.32 --> 1888.86] I like to give gamers a little bit more respect than the latest AAA Battlefield comes out. +[1888.98 --> 1890.36] They don't have to play it or they're not a gamer. +[1890.52 --> 1892.34] And they have to play it or they're not a gamer. +[1892.42 --> 1898.02] I know a lot of gamers that, like, I find especially in the Blizzard community, especially, but then +[1898.02 --> 1903.36] also with games like Counter-Strike, there'll be guys that like, they're like, oh, do you +[1903.36 --> 1904.00] want to play a game? +[1904.58 --> 1905.60] And I'll be like, yeah, sure. +[1905.64 --> 1907.00] This mainly happens to my brother, not me. +[1907.08 --> 1908.66] But I'll be like, oh, do you want to play a game? +[1908.72 --> 1909.08] Yeah, sure. +[1909.38 --> 1909.74] Oh, okay. +[1909.86 --> 1911.50] Oh, I don't see you on StarCraft. +[1911.50 --> 1913.56] It's like, yeah, yeah. +[1913.66 --> 1914.40] Do you want to play something else? +[1914.48 --> 1915.78] They're like, no, I don't have any other games. +[1916.32 --> 1917.30] I only play StarCraft. +[1917.44 --> 1918.14] They're still a gamer. +[1918.68 --> 1919.66] I see that with Counter-Strike. +[1919.74 --> 1922.00] I see that with a lot of the competitive style games. +[1922.36 --> 1922.44] Yeah. +[1922.44 --> 1924.52] They'll like only be into that one. +[1925.20 --> 1926.12] That's fine. +[1926.24 --> 1927.12] That doesn't mean they're not a gamer. +[1927.36 --> 1927.54] Yeah. +[1927.54 --> 1929.36] All right. +[1929.48 --> 1930.72] So this is exciting. +[1931.38 --> 1937.62] 25 gigabit and 50 gigabit Ethernet standards being worked on. +[1937.72 --> 1942.02] So a consortium has been formed, which actually has some pretty big names. +[1942.14 --> 1943.56] So I would expect this to go somewhere. +[1943.70 --> 1946.52] Microsoft, Google, Broadcom. +[1947.44 --> 1948.16] Kind of a big deal. +[1948.36 --> 1948.62] Yeah. +[1948.74 --> 1950.52] So this is probably going to happen. +[1950.52 --> 1956.22] But basically the objective here is this is not going to make its way to your desktop anytime soon. +[1956.54 --> 1956.60] No. +[1957.34 --> 1959.52] Like probably eventually, but not now. +[1960.34 --> 1960.56] Yeah. +[1960.58 --> 1961.52] Not for a long time. +[1961.58 --> 1963.32] I mean, look how long we've been stuck with gigabit. +[1963.82 --> 1964.26] Oh God. +[1964.30 --> 1965.56] We haven't even moved to 10 gigabit. +[1966.10 --> 1967.60] So there's that. +[1967.60 --> 1972.40] But this is basically going to be for, as a tweener. +[1972.58 --> 1974.46] Because right now we've got 100 gigabit. +[1974.52 --> 1975.16] Let me ask you this. +[1975.30 --> 1975.86] And then we've got. +[1975.86 --> 1978.52] Why is it that you know you show someone a photo? +[1978.80 --> 1979.98] What the heck is that? +[1980.38 --> 1981.36] And they flip to see what's next. +[1981.42 --> 1984.86] I don't want any phone flippers flipping through all my pictures. +[1984.86 --> 1986.50] Where did this ad come from? +[1987.58 --> 1988.02] Tweaktown. +[1988.64 --> 1989.32] Yeah, Tweaktown. +[1989.62 --> 1989.88] Yeah. +[1989.98 --> 1992.70] I had a Tweaktown article open on the computer there. +[1992.76 --> 1992.90] Yeah. +[1992.94 --> 1994.38] No, Tweaktown's like the worst for that. +[1994.48 --> 1995.18] Out of nowhere. +[1995.42 --> 1995.58] Yeah. +[1995.58 --> 1997.30] Oh, I never have sound on on my computer. +[1997.30 --> 1998.40] So it never bothers me. +[1998.68 --> 1999.88] Tweaktown always does that. +[1999.98 --> 2001.80] Never leave Tweaktown at times open. +[2002.38 --> 2004.56] It's like the one site where it's like, oh God. +[2005.00 --> 2010.02] Anyway, this is supposed to exist as a tweener between the 100 gigabit gear, that like super +[2010.02 --> 2014.14] high-end enterprise stuff, and then the 10 gigabit gear, which is that also high-end, +[2014.24 --> 2017.16] but not as completely balls to the walls, 10 gigabit stuff. +[2017.16 --> 2018.36] What was that ad? +[2019.06 --> 2020.02] Oh, I don't know what it was. +[2020.76 --> 2021.10] Oh. +[2021.98 --> 2022.34] Anyway. +[2023.92 --> 2026.16] I think that's pretty much all there is to say about that. +[2026.16 --> 2027.44] It's not exactly the most complicated. +[2027.52 --> 2029.76] If you have some other stuff that you want to talk about, then great. +[2030.02 --> 2030.28] Not really. +[2030.66 --> 2031.58] It's exciting. +[2032.34 --> 2036.90] It's more looking for server backend and linking things together within data centers and stuff +[2036.90 --> 2037.26] like that. +[2037.32 --> 2039.26] So it's not really home stuff. +[2039.44 --> 2042.10] So your Dropbox might go faster. +[2042.58 --> 2043.24] Probably not. +[2043.30 --> 2043.90] Probably not, though. +[2043.90 --> 2048.34] But yeah, nothing that you guys will probably actually, or us, will probably actually feel +[2048.34 --> 2049.26] the effects of, really. +[2049.56 --> 2050.64] It'll improve efficiency. +[2051.22 --> 2054.94] Prices will go down in the long term for cloud-based solutions, blah, blah, blah, blah, +[2054.94 --> 2055.70] blah, all that stuff. +[2055.80 --> 2057.58] But in the short term, not a whole lot. +[2057.58 --> 2062.14] And we're not expecting any kind of technology based on these standards to hit any time in +[2062.14 --> 2064.26] the next year to a year and a half anyway. +[2064.68 --> 2069.98] It's interesting that the plans to create this, blah, blah, blah, were stalled at a meeting +[2069.98 --> 2071.80] last March due to perceived lack of support. +[2072.14 --> 2075.08] And then Google, Microsoft, and Broadcom were like, nope. +[2076.62 --> 2077.76] Time to do it. +[2078.06 --> 2078.24] Yeah. +[2078.26 --> 2079.38] We actually need this, yo. +[2079.66 --> 2079.90] Yeah. +[2080.12 --> 2081.04] It's cool that they're doing that. +[2081.12 --> 2081.68] I like it a lot. +[2081.68 --> 2086.44] Okay, so this is actually pretty crappy. +[2086.46 --> 2088.20] Have you been to Linux LiveJournal lately? +[2088.62 --> 2089.48] Yeah, exactly. +[2089.76 --> 2090.22] Because I have. +[2090.52 --> 2095.44] All right, so here's an open letter from the Electronic Frontier Foundation. +[2095.78 --> 2098.34] Dear NSA, privacy is a fundamental right. +[2099.44 --> 2100.82] And you know what? +[2101.84 --> 2108.14] This is, I mean, every time, every time we talk about the NSA, they're crossing a new line. +[2108.14 --> 2114.02] But basically, what the NSA has been found to be doing this time is they're actually adding +[2114.02 --> 2117.08] fingerprints to your online activities. +[2117.28 --> 2123.58] So even though you might be using Tor Browser, so it's difficult to track exactly what you're +[2123.58 --> 2125.72] looking at and exactly what you're doing online. +[2125.98 --> 2133.94] What they're doing is they're putting together the puzzle pieces of the people who are accessing +[2133.94 --> 2139.00] things like Tor Browser, and then they're building profiles of these people and turning them +[2139.00 --> 2144.74] into sort of, I don't want to say flagged, because it's not quite that extreme, but they're +[2144.74 --> 2149.92] turning these into profiles for these individuals that could put you under more scrutiny if you +[2149.92 --> 2152.58] are attempting to maintain your privacy. +[2153.92 --> 2156.70] It's just like, will this arms race never end? +[2157.06 --> 2157.78] No, probably not. +[2158.14 --> 2158.58] I know. +[2158.58 --> 2163.18] What I find interesting is I've seen a whole bunch of, like, not to slam America, but +[2163.18 --> 2164.84] I'm about to slam America a little bit. +[2165.26 --> 2166.16] Be nice to America. +[2166.26 --> 2167.16] They're much bigger than us. +[2167.20 --> 2168.30] I'm partially American. +[2168.54 --> 2168.90] I know. +[2169.10 --> 2169.64] That's gross. +[2169.72 --> 2170.52] Can I slam myself? +[2170.84 --> 2171.94] I'm just teasing you. +[2173.12 --> 2173.56] Okay. +[2173.94 --> 2179.42] Actually, so Luke is legitimately half American, if you wanted to calculate it that way. +[2179.52 --> 2181.00] So go ahead and do your American. +[2181.06 --> 2181.64] Your mom's American. +[2181.98 --> 2183.66] Yeah, but I'm technically fully American. +[2183.98 --> 2185.20] I'm just also fully Canadian. +[2185.38 --> 2187.54] You can't be fully American and fully Canadian. +[2187.54 --> 2189.30] There's citizenship in both countries. +[2189.42 --> 2191.78] Dual citizenship is half citizenship, man. +[2192.10 --> 2192.50] What? +[2192.66 --> 2193.64] Yeah, you're half Canadian. +[2193.86 --> 2194.30] I'm sorry. +[2194.50 --> 2194.84] No, no. +[2195.08 --> 2196.04] That's not how that works. +[2196.08 --> 2198.98] You know what's funny is in Canada, you're right. +[2199.06 --> 2199.96] That's not how it works. +[2200.22 --> 2201.10] You're completely right. +[2201.18 --> 2201.66] In America. +[2201.96 --> 2202.68] But no, no, no. +[2202.70 --> 2203.72] In America, it's not really. +[2203.90 --> 2207.10] Actually, they do make you be fully American when you. +[2207.42 --> 2209.46] So anyway, that actually is kind of how it works. +[2209.46 --> 2215.94] In a lot of parts of the world, though, the way that people view your nationality actually +[2215.94 --> 2219.76] has a lot more to do with your lineage and a lot less to do with where you're born and +[2219.76 --> 2220.18] where you're from. +[2220.34 --> 2224.62] So me saying, me calling you half American probably makes perfect sense to our European +[2224.62 --> 2225.04] viewers. +[2225.78 --> 2233.20] Where you're half Irish, even if your dad and mom spent their entire lives in France. +[2233.56 --> 2236.92] If they're of Irish descent, you're half Irish, even though you've never set foot in Ireland. +[2238.14 --> 2241.58] I've heard that reference, too, but only when people are specifically talking about +[2241.58 --> 2242.18] So you're half American. +[2242.72 --> 2243.50] Whatever, man. +[2244.02 --> 2247.58] I mean, this is good in this case because you're about to say something mean. +[2247.60 --> 2249.06] Because I can slam myself a little bit. +[2249.58 --> 2250.74] The 4th of July. +[2251.66 --> 2252.18] What about it? +[2252.30 --> 2256.88] I see tons of people celebrating and they're like, yeah, the meaning of being American is +[2256.88 --> 2260.88] like, you stand up for what you think is right to no matter what the odds, no matter +[2260.88 --> 2263.40] what's against you, blah, blah, blah, because America. +[2263.82 --> 2266.68] Even if it's like against your government, whatever, whatever, you do it for yourself. +[2266.80 --> 2267.76] You do blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[2267.80 --> 2269.34] And they're all like, yeah, we're awesome. +[2269.54 --> 2271.02] And I'm like, yeah, that's cool America. +[2271.14 --> 2272.44] You're not cool America right now. +[2273.22 --> 2273.80] You're not. +[2275.72 --> 2277.46] Like, it's just, nope. +[2277.72 --> 2279.96] And it's not any individual's fault. +[2280.14 --> 2280.58] I don't think. +[2280.86 --> 2282.60] It's just things are kind of crappy down there. +[2282.66 --> 2289.18] Okay, so the really horrible thing about this whole latest NSA thing is not only are they +[2289.18 --> 2292.60] looking at people who are using Tor browser. +[2293.18 --> 2298.90] They are looking at, apparently, Linux Journal is one of the publications that is getting +[2298.90 --> 2299.88] you fingerprinted. +[2300.76 --> 2301.36] Really? +[2301.76 --> 2302.56] Linux Journal? +[2303.22 --> 2311.76] Just because someone has a passion for open source operating system kernels, does that really +[2311.76 --> 2312.18] mean that... +[2312.18 --> 2318.52] To play completely devil's advocate, because I think it's completely bull crap, but they +[2318.52 --> 2323.44] do talk about stuff like Tor and stuff like, what are they called? +[2324.00 --> 2325.08] Tails a lot. +[2325.14 --> 2325.36] Sure. +[2325.64 --> 2325.78] Okay. +[2325.98 --> 2331.68] So Tails is an operating system that basically leaves no trace on the computer that you were +[2331.68 --> 2332.30] running it on. +[2332.36 --> 2335.34] So you can run it on an SD card or a USB drive or even a live CD. +[2335.34 --> 2342.16] Um, and, you know, yes, these technologies, Tor and Tails, do exist for the purpose of hiding +[2342.16 --> 2342.82] your tracks. +[2343.28 --> 2348.58] And yes, Linux Journal does talk about these things, but that doesn't make them an extremist +[2348.58 --> 2349.00] forum. +[2349.72 --> 2349.82] No. +[2350.96 --> 2351.62] Not at all. +[2351.62 --> 2352.12] And that's insane. +[2352.26 --> 2352.40] Yeah. +[2352.60 --> 2353.50] It's completely insane. +[2353.52 --> 2355.80] I can't even devil's advocate that, because that's ridiculous. +[2356.42 --> 2357.44] So, you know what? +[2357.48 --> 2358.98] I want to do a Twitter blitz right now. +[2358.98 --> 2362.18] It looks like they are now, because there's stuff on their front page, like, are you an extremist +[2362.18 --> 2362.84] and all that kind of stuff. +[2362.96 --> 2364.32] Well, they're joking about it, right? +[2364.34 --> 2368.02] I know, but like, if you had no prior knowledge, it would look like they might be now. +[2368.40 --> 2374.02] So here's, here's what, uh, here's what I kind of want to do, just for, for the lols, +[2374.04 --> 2374.22] guys. +[2374.34 --> 2379.46] I want you guys to Twitter blitz us examples of, no, not straw poll. +[2379.64 --> 2379.84] Okay. +[2379.88 --> 2380.96] I want to Twitter blitz this. +[2380.96 --> 2387.56] So I want you guys to Twitter blitz us examples of, you know, privacy that you think people +[2387.56 --> 2392.78] should have that they're not allowed to have, like the ability to browse websites without +[2392.78 --> 2398.42] people going through their internet history, and privacy that people have that you don't +[2398.42 --> 2399.50] think they should have. +[2399.58 --> 2404.24] I mean, hot button topics like this include things like, uh, gun ownership registry, for +[2404.24 --> 2404.64] example. +[2404.94 --> 2407.40] So I just want to hear you guys' opinions. +[2407.74 --> 2410.40] We're not going to be like, okay, yeah, you're right, you're wrong. +[2410.64 --> 2415.84] But the thing about privacy is that there are, there are places you have to draw the line. +[2415.84 --> 2418.68] Like, for example, okay, so let's say anonymity on the internet. +[2419.00 --> 2421.74] Should you be allowed to be anonymous in certain places? +[2423.34 --> 2426.16] For example, you can walk around on the street with sunglasses. +[2426.54 --> 2430.04] You walk into a bank with sunglasses and your hat pulled down to here. +[2430.22 --> 2430.84] That's a problem. +[2432.98 --> 2433.86] Just think about it. +[2435.00 --> 2436.18] Just think about it for a second. +[2436.26 --> 2438.22] Which are not the same at all. +[2438.54 --> 2439.64] Which are not the same at all. +[2439.72 --> 2440.56] The bank and the internet. +[2440.74 --> 2441.24] It doesn't matter. +[2441.86 --> 2443.78] I'm, well, I'm not talking about just the internet and the bank. +[2443.90 --> 2445.14] They're like wildly different. +[2445.14 --> 2446.00] Yeah, I know. +[2446.42 --> 2447.32] That's the whole point. +[2447.40 --> 2448.80] People are supposed to just tweet things. +[2449.20 --> 2449.26] Okay. +[2449.40 --> 2453.90] Okay, so like, for example, you are allowed to draw the shades over your house. +[2454.26 --> 2460.28] But if you were to set up a 25 foot high wall around your property, that would raise eyebrows. +[2460.62 --> 2462.44] You know, you've got building code or whatever else. +[2462.44 --> 2464.08] But basically, you're not going to be allowed to do that. +[2464.22 --> 2464.24] I was just going to say that. +[2464.24 --> 2465.16] That's more of a problem for other reasons. +[2465.42 --> 2465.58] Yeah. +[2466.10 --> 2466.22] So. +[2466.22 --> 2471.72] We have, like, at my parents' house where I grew up, we had these giant freaking trees. +[2471.98 --> 2472.14] Yeah. +[2472.14 --> 2472.80] No one cared. +[2473.04 --> 2474.10] They're a lot more than 25 feet. +[2474.10 --> 2475.92] We have a lot of them. +[2476.04 --> 2476.24] Okay. +[2476.42 --> 2479.78] Like, things that I don't think should necessarily be allowed. +[2480.98 --> 2483.62] Extremely dangerous animals that aren't correctly contained. +[2484.18 --> 2486.90] I mean, people would argue, well, that's my privacy. +[2487.06 --> 2487.90] That's my security. +[2488.08 --> 2489.14] I'm protecting my privacy. +[2489.66 --> 2494.08] But, you know, you see enough stories in the news about these dogs getting out, mauling children. +[2494.30 --> 2494.46] Dogs? +[2494.46 --> 2495.08] That it becomes a problem. +[2495.38 --> 2495.56] Yeah. +[2495.82 --> 2496.38] What dog? +[2496.50 --> 2497.30] What do you mean, what dogs? +[2497.38 --> 2497.78] Bulldogs? +[2497.96 --> 2498.36] Dobermans? +[2498.58 --> 2499.16] Extremely dangerous animals. +[2499.16 --> 2499.78] That's bad training. +[2499.78 --> 2500.22] Yeah. +[2501.66 --> 2503.32] I completely disagree on that topic. +[2503.32 --> 2504.04] So you disagree. +[2504.24 --> 2505.84] So having a dangerous animal. +[2506.00 --> 2506.06] A bulldog? +[2506.06 --> 2508.32] I mean, when I say dangerous animal, I don't mean a breed. +[2508.86 --> 2509.94] You said dog, though. +[2510.04 --> 2510.24] Yeah. +[2510.50 --> 2514.66] A dog is an example of an animal that can be dangerous if you train it to be dangerous. +[2515.00 --> 2515.30] Okay. +[2515.74 --> 2515.98] Yeah. +[2515.98 --> 2518.24] Having a dog isn't the objection here. +[2518.48 --> 2519.92] The objection is fortifying your house. +[2519.98 --> 2523.68] So, for example, where I used to live, we had a drug dealer family living across the road. +[2524.06 --> 2524.30] Ugh. +[2524.58 --> 2526.58] Their animals were friggin' dangerous. +[2527.56 --> 2528.76] They were dangerous. +[2529.00 --> 2530.02] So training a dog. +[2530.02 --> 2531.30] Not because they're a dog. +[2531.42 --> 2532.82] So training a dog to be dangerous. +[2533.28 --> 2533.46] Yeah. +[2533.60 --> 2534.32] So the point is... +[2534.32 --> 2534.86] How do you measure that? +[2534.96 --> 2535.76] How do you measure that? +[2535.88 --> 2536.08] Yeah. +[2536.14 --> 2536.84] That's not the point. +[2537.12 --> 2539.82] The point is just, guys, what do you think is right? +[2539.86 --> 2540.52] What do you think is wrong? +[2540.52 --> 2544.70] Because there are things that I don't think people should be able to do for the sake of privacy. +[2544.70 --> 2553.32] I think putting a moat around your house and putting, like, starving dogs between the moat and your front door is dangerous and wrong. +[2553.52 --> 2555.60] Even if it's for the sake of your own privacy. +[2555.74 --> 2557.44] I think you're allowed to put a moat around your house if you want. +[2557.62 --> 2558.02] You're... +[2558.02 --> 2558.96] Probably not, actually. +[2559.10 --> 2560.04] I think it depends where you live. +[2560.16 --> 2560.86] Call before you dig. +[2560.94 --> 2561.54] BC1 call. +[2562.26 --> 2562.52] Yeah. +[2562.70 --> 2563.04] No, I know. +[2563.28 --> 2564.26] But, like, if you can... +[2564.26 --> 2567.24] I think if you don't hit something, you'd technically be allowed. +[2567.40 --> 2569.32] I don't think you can put a moat around your house. +[2569.48 --> 2569.76] Really? +[2569.90 --> 2570.48] I'm fairly sure. +[2570.48 --> 2573.84] If you had, like, a giant farm property and your house was in the middle of the property, +[2573.84 --> 2575.80] you couldn't moat your house? +[2575.88 --> 2576.24] Why not? +[2576.98 --> 2577.54] I just... +[2577.54 --> 2579.16] I just don't think you can. +[2579.30 --> 2579.98] You can... +[2579.98 --> 2580.26] You can... +[2580.26 --> 2582.34] Okay, in suburbia, you definitely can't. +[2582.36 --> 2582.58] No. +[2582.72 --> 2583.64] Because you're gonna hit something. +[2583.74 --> 2586.30] I can't even paint my house a certain color. +[2586.74 --> 2587.86] That's so dumb. +[2587.92 --> 2588.10] Yeah. +[2589.16 --> 2589.64] That's... +[2589.64 --> 2590.38] That's how it works. +[2590.64 --> 2591.38] I hate that. +[2591.58 --> 2595.94] We wouldn't even, like, here, we wouldn't even have enough room to cut a moat around. +[2596.46 --> 2596.90] Well, yeah. +[2597.46 --> 2597.86] All right. +[2597.86 --> 2598.72] It's not even possible. +[2600.10 --> 2603.12] SpamJazz says, I think the rules of the real world should be applied to the internet. +[2603.38 --> 2604.58] It should be treated as a place. +[2606.30 --> 2611.56] Igor figures if it affects someone else, then privacy is not protected. +[2611.68 --> 2615.44] If it's a personal preference or something like that, then basically do whatever you want. +[2615.50 --> 2619.28] I mean, an example of that is the fact that you're not allowed to tint your windshield +[2619.28 --> 2620.62] here in BC. +[2621.04 --> 2621.10] Yeah. +[2621.10 --> 2626.08] Someone could say, well, for the sake of my privacy, I want my entire car tinted completely black. +[2626.40 --> 2627.68] You can do the back, I think. +[2627.74 --> 2629.64] You can do the back very dark, but not black. +[2629.82 --> 2630.72] There are still regulations. +[2631.22 --> 2635.08] And the reason for that is that pedestrians need to be able to see where the driver's looking. +[2635.44 --> 2638.00] So it's one of those things where where is the line? +[2638.08 --> 2642.56] Because there are places where I don't think you just plain old have the right to not be +[2642.56 --> 2643.38] seen or heard by anyone. +[2644.10 --> 2646.32] Like, for example, not being able to tint your windshield. +[2646.32 --> 2646.88] I'm sorry. +[2646.96 --> 2649.04] You just can't do that because it's dangerous for others. +[2649.14 --> 2649.50] That's all. +[2649.76 --> 2650.68] But that's like in public. +[2650.68 --> 2652.64] You can tint the windows on your house. +[2653.24 --> 2654.66] You can put blackout on the windows in your house. +[2654.82 --> 2656.88] I wonder if you could in certain... +[2656.88 --> 2658.82] Again, you can't even paint your house certain colors. +[2658.96 --> 2660.18] I wonder if you're allowed to... +[2660.18 --> 2661.30] Right, but you could blackout blind your house. +[2661.40 --> 2662.56] You could blackout blind your house. +[2662.72 --> 2664.74] Well, not technically the same thing, but close enough. +[2665.64 --> 2668.02] But then again, and oh, this is interesting. +[2668.50 --> 2673.98] If you were to blackout blind your house, put a 25-foot tall fence around it, put video +[2673.98 --> 2679.56] surveillance cameras around it, would you then be surprised if the cops took an interest +[2679.56 --> 2680.06] in your house? +[2680.06 --> 2680.56] No. +[2680.56 --> 2687.14] Is the NSA any different for taking an interest in people who go to great lengths to protect +[2687.14 --> 2689.58] their privacy than the traditional law enforcement? +[2689.58 --> 2691.56] But the cops are allowed to take as much interest as they want. +[2691.64 --> 2692.88] They can't enter your house without a warrant. +[2693.32 --> 2693.62] Yes. +[2693.62 --> 2697.20] But the NSA is not necessarily entering your house if they're... +[2697.20 --> 2697.76] Yes, they are. +[2697.76 --> 2697.88] Yes, they are. +[2697.88 --> 2699.24] Because they're intercepting your traffic. +[2699.56 --> 2700.70] So hold on a second. +[2701.34 --> 2706.02] So how would they take an interest without intercepting your traffic? +[2706.94 --> 2709.80] Without infringing on your rights in the first place? +[2710.20 --> 2712.06] See, that's why this is also very interesting. +[2712.18 --> 2712.88] But screw them. +[2712.92 --> 2713.46] Who cares? +[2713.94 --> 2717.10] Put my name on a list and then do nothing with it because you suck. +[2717.24 --> 2718.08] Back off. +[2718.08 --> 2724.08] All right, so Caleb says, I believe that sites don't have the right to mine data from users +[2724.08 --> 2724.76] to sell for a profit. +[2724.88 --> 2726.66] Not really the topic we're talking about. +[2726.70 --> 2727.94] Yeah, no, not at all. +[2728.02 --> 2729.14] And they kind of do. +[2729.64 --> 2729.90] Yeah. +[2730.86 --> 2731.30] Okay. +[2731.56 --> 2736.24] And in fact, if you read the terms of service of the sites that you use, it's very likely +[2736.24 --> 2739.30] that they tell you that they can use your data for whatever they want. +[2739.52 --> 2741.66] That's like the Facebook thing that happened with the social experiment. +[2741.66 --> 2746.42] And then Facebook was like, well, in terms of agreement, it literally says you're going +[2746.42 --> 2747.50] to take part in this. +[2747.90 --> 2748.72] So there you go. +[2749.04 --> 2752.92] You should be able to look at whatever sites you want, just not what they want you to look +[2752.92 --> 2753.76] at, but to a point. +[2754.08 --> 2757.80] I mean, I think something that was really, that was something that the article brought +[2757.80 --> 2760.24] up that was yet another facet of this. +[2760.66 --> 2763.82] Just the point of this whole conversation is just think about it, guys. +[2764.18 --> 2769.50] I'm not, nothing I say is necessarily me being like, yes, the NSA is right, or this +[2769.50 --> 2771.02] is wrong, or this is right, or whatever else. +[2771.02 --> 2775.98] The point is just to think about it because think about the people who might legitimately need +[2775.98 --> 2778.40] the privacy that something like Tails affords them. +[2778.46 --> 2784.98] People who are not in America, even, where they have relative freedom, and at least the +[2784.98 --> 2787.42] police mostly can't just shoot them. +[2788.82 --> 2793.36] You know, where they're trying to fight against a truly oppressive government, and now all of +[2793.36 --> 2797.98] a sudden, the NSA is collecting this data, sharing it with who knows who, and now that +[2797.98 --> 2802.00] could put them in danger just because they're trying to protect their privacy that they legitimately +[2802.00 --> 2802.88] needed to protect. +[2802.88 --> 2803.14] Yeah. +[2804.14 --> 2807.66] So you need to be able to look at whatever, say, okay, you need to rephrase the dog sentence +[2807.66 --> 2808.06] a bit better. +[2808.12 --> 2809.06] I think we handled that. +[2809.60 --> 2810.88] The point is dangerous dogs. +[2811.70 --> 2814.12] I'm not saying that a particular breed is dangerous. +[2814.34 --> 2816.64] I'm saying a particular dog could be dangerous. +[2817.06 --> 2818.64] Yeah, and that's, and that is true. +[2818.74 --> 2820.08] And you can usually tell. +[2820.26 --> 2824.68] It's usually fairly obvious which ones have been told that strangers are bad. +[2825.22 --> 2825.40] Yeah. +[2825.62 --> 2827.10] Not always, but you're, you're right. +[2827.34 --> 2830.48] They'll have, especially if you're trained in being able to look for those things. +[2830.48 --> 2832.06] That would be like body language. +[2832.50 --> 2833.84] Dogs don't really hide body language. +[2834.02 --> 2834.80] No, they don't. +[2836.06 --> 2837.76] Anonymity should be everywhere on the web. +[2837.84 --> 2842.06] It's like saying you can't blend into a crowd, which is another really interesting point that +[2842.06 --> 2847.52] the article raises, and that's that the best thing that we can all do if we don't want +[2847.52 --> 2851.50] to stand out as someone who uses Tor is we should just all use Tor. +[2851.50 --> 2855.86] Because if you, by tracking everyone, you track no one. +[2856.60 --> 2859.36] Or by singling out everyone, you single out no one. +[2859.56 --> 2860.30] There you go. +[2860.36 --> 2860.60] Whatever. +[2861.32 --> 2862.46] I was like, wait a second. +[2862.74 --> 2867.44] Well, by tracking everyone, I guess what I meant is one of those individuals is not as +[2867.44 --> 2869.22] easily or as accurately tracked. +[2869.40 --> 2870.28] Yeah, yeah, exactly. +[2870.28 --> 2875.44] In Europe, the policy about using credit cards for transactions. +[2877.24 --> 2877.64] What? +[2877.80 --> 2878.06] Okay. +[2878.64 --> 2881.54] I should be allowed to control what companies can and cannot view your data. +[2881.78 --> 2882.00] Yeah. +[2882.20 --> 2883.52] We're not talking about companies, though. +[2883.56 --> 2884.46] We're talking about the NSA. +[2884.66 --> 2884.84] Yeah. +[2885.04 --> 2885.80] We're not really a company. +[2886.78 --> 2889.12] Why does Slick have a phase load on his shirt? +[2889.50 --> 2890.54] We'll cover that later. +[2890.60 --> 2891.22] Yeah, I talked about that. +[2891.36 --> 2892.78] Yeah, we're on this. +[2892.82 --> 2894.12] And I told him the exact same thing. +[2894.24 --> 2895.06] You'll find out later. +[2896.88 --> 2899.30] I don't want the government taking my phone without a warrant. +[2899.30 --> 2900.48] Oh, right. +[2900.54 --> 2902.84] People are just giving a couple examples of things. +[2902.98 --> 2903.10] Yeah. +[2903.96 --> 2905.30] Yeah, that's something that... +[2905.30 --> 2906.58] I think that's becoming a thing, isn't it? +[2906.78 --> 2908.54] Yeah, that's becoming a bit of a problem. +[2908.96 --> 2915.16] And, like, I mean, even going back a number of years ago, people were having laptops seized +[2915.16 --> 2917.30] at the border to check for pirated software. +[2917.62 --> 2917.78] Yeah. +[2917.88 --> 2922.72] So, like, that's been a thing for a while and is totally over the line from my perspective. +[2922.92 --> 2923.16] Yeah. +[2924.14 --> 2925.32] It's my laptop, man. +[2925.54 --> 2928.22] Privacy question up to the property owner says, +[2928.22 --> 2931.34] so whoever owns the property should be able to just do whatever they want there. +[2931.70 --> 2933.74] While using the internet, we're totally free. +[2934.06 --> 2937.28] But, like in real life, everyone should set limits for internet use. +[2937.96 --> 2941.74] I think Twitter is not a great medium for this. +[2941.94 --> 2942.12] No. +[2942.18 --> 2943.94] Because I just mostly don't... +[2943.94 --> 2944.40] Understand. +[2944.60 --> 2945.48] Understand things. +[2945.82 --> 2947.56] Actually, Christopher Rivera... +[2947.56 --> 2947.86] You know what? +[2947.86 --> 2950.14] We'll use this as a transition into our next topic here. +[2950.14 --> 2952.86] This is... +[2952.86 --> 2953.62] This is interesting. +[2954.48 --> 2955.66] Doop, doop, doop, doop, doop, doop. +[2955.66 --> 2956.60] Where did that one go? +[2956.72 --> 2957.20] I don't know. +[2957.28 --> 2959.26] A lot of them got dumped in rapid fire, so check there. +[2960.02 --> 2960.38] Okay. +[2961.02 --> 2961.62] What are you looking for? +[2961.72 --> 2962.66] The anonymity... +[2963.40 --> 2964.80] I'm looking for the right to be forgotten. +[2964.96 --> 2965.08] Right to be forgotten. +[2965.08 --> 2965.70] Yeah, this is interesting. +[2966.30 --> 2968.92] So, in Europe right now... +[2968.92 --> 2971.12] Let's just go ahead and switch over to my screen here. +[2973.86 --> 2976.26] So, the EU's right to be forgotten. +[2976.44 --> 2979.80] So, there are some Guardian articles that have been hidden by Google. +[2980.24 --> 2982.74] So, the Guardian is a UK-based publication. +[2983.28 --> 2993.00] And, basically, what you are allowed to do now over there is you are allowed to have the right to not be searchable. +[2993.00 --> 3000.16] So, you can actually request that Google no longer return search results for a particular thing. +[3000.24 --> 3006.04] So, an example of this might be, you know, someone who had a run-in with the police or whatever else. +[3006.14 --> 3010.70] They weren't a minor, so their name and their face and everything was published in articles. +[3011.00 --> 3021.10] They can't make the Guardian remove their article, but they can request that Google no longer return search results linking to that article. +[3021.10 --> 3023.98] So, you're someone who's, like, the newspaper collector. +[3024.70 --> 3026.80] You could have that site stored somewhere. +[3026.88 --> 3028.10] You could have that URL stored somewhere. +[3028.34 --> 3028.52] Yes. +[3028.52 --> 3032.26] And, that's not going to necessarily go away, but it's not going to be, like, easily researchable anymore. +[3032.74 --> 3036.86] So, that actually seems to raise a whole other set of problems. +[3036.90 --> 3040.30] Because I can see reasons why this should exist. +[3040.30 --> 3047.76] You know, you don't want, I mean, you don't want your employability affected by some stupid parking ticket you got when you were 19. +[3048.20 --> 3051.74] Or, if someone makes an accusation against you, which ends up being completely false. +[3052.00 --> 3058.02] But, all those articles from before the verdict exist, and no one ever updates that stuff. +[3058.08 --> 3058.24] Yeah. +[3058.42 --> 3062.30] I mean, I can see that being the kind of thing that really should be removed. +[3063.70 --> 3064.96] That's a huge problem. +[3064.96 --> 3081.14] But, on the other hand, if, let's say you're a politician who's involved in scandal after scandal after scandal, and your local constituents can't search for information about it because you just go, okay, well, I don't want to be searchable. +[3081.38 --> 3082.92] And, that's probably an extreme example. +[3083.38 --> 3084.62] Like, let's say not a politician. +[3085.02 --> 3090.26] Let's say, you know, an executive within a company instead. +[3090.74 --> 3096.22] Where the other, the board of directors might want to, you know, have a look at what kind of guy is this. +[3096.30 --> 3101.36] I mean, searching for people on the internet, whether, whatever you like about it or dislike about it. +[3101.44 --> 3102.96] Then again, Google's just easy. +[3103.30 --> 3106.70] Most of these websites, like, oh, that's a Google custom search. +[3106.86 --> 3107.92] Not a good example. +[3108.24 --> 3108.38] Yeah. +[3108.62 --> 3112.16] The Guardian's on-site search is actually powered by Google. +[3112.30 --> 3113.88] I wonder, oh, okay, we're in the way. +[3114.10 --> 3114.50] It's covering it. +[3114.50 --> 3116.02] I wonder how long that's going to last for. +[3116.62 --> 3120.28] Yeah, but, yeah, but, like, a lot of these sites are going to have their own search functionality. +[3120.46 --> 3124.66] So, if you try it a little bit harder, you could probably still figure it out. +[3124.72 --> 3126.74] And, especially in situations where it's a politician. +[3127.22 --> 3127.80] Yeah, or. +[3127.82 --> 3130.64] Someone's probably going to try and run slander campaigns against them anyway. +[3130.76 --> 3134.50] So, they'll hire an investigator or they'll just go to these websites themselves. +[3134.82 --> 3135.30] It's not. +[3135.80 --> 3139.64] But, what it's doing is it's making the information less accessible to the average person. +[3139.76 --> 3140.64] Yes, definitely. +[3140.64 --> 3147.74] But then the flip side of that is should my employability be affected by, you know, here's an example. +[3148.10 --> 3150.44] Should my employability be affected by a DUI? +[3150.44 --> 3153.16] I. +[3153.96 --> 3156.02] You could dance all day on that topic. +[3156.16 --> 3156.44] Yeah. +[3156.44 --> 3158.70] I don't know. +[3159.36 --> 3160.20] I don't drink. +[3160.28 --> 3161.68] So, I can easily just be like, yup. +[3161.80 --> 3162.80] But then I don't know if that's. +[3162.86 --> 3163.58] I don't drink either. +[3163.76 --> 3168.96] So, I could easily just be like, you know, yeah, people who get behind the wheel drunk are bad people. +[3169.32 --> 3172.86] But, the reality of it is, sometimes good people make bad decisions. +[3172.86 --> 3177.56] And sometimes there's going to be a flag that was raised that maybe shouldn't have. +[3177.64 --> 3178.46] Like, what is it? +[3178.60 --> 3183.06] I know with steroids, if you eat too many sesame seeds, you can get brought up on a steroid test. +[3183.12 --> 3186.80] Yeah, I think they've pretty much nailed down figuring out how drunk people are. +[3187.04 --> 3187.80] But, I see your point. +[3187.82 --> 3191.20] I have zero experience with getting on breathalyzers or anything. +[3191.26 --> 3196.34] I mean, if you eat a lot of poppy seed muffins, you can show up positive for opium. +[3197.04 --> 3197.58] Is that an example? +[3197.82 --> 3198.04] Yeah. +[3198.04 --> 3202.36] So, yes, there are things that could be problems here. +[3202.70 --> 3207.80] But, you know, I mean, there's a lot of debate going on in the Twitch chat right now. +[3207.98 --> 3209.68] People deserve a second chance. +[3209.96 --> 3211.28] People are basically bad. +[3211.32 --> 3213.28] And we should document the bad things they do forever. +[3214.22 --> 3218.38] I mean, it's one of those things that never existed before. +[3218.78 --> 3221.36] So, we have to find new ways to address it. +[3221.36 --> 3229.80] I mean, it used to be that, you know, an old newspaper clipping or, like, going and looking at microfiches in the library. +[3229.80 --> 3235.64] That was how you, like, found old news that otherwise basically didn't exist. +[3235.86 --> 3235.96] Yeah. +[3236.02 --> 3239.20] But the internet's been around long enough now that... +[3239.20 --> 3241.12] You can find a pretty detailed history on a lot of people. +[3241.34 --> 3242.20] There's a paper trail. +[3242.40 --> 3242.60] Yeah. +[3242.72 --> 3245.06] That exists digitally that will never go away. +[3245.10 --> 3247.36] Especially if people are bad with their Facebook privacy. +[3247.36 --> 3249.72] Hey, even websites that are gone. +[3250.02 --> 3251.96] You know, you can run around on Wayback Machine. +[3252.02 --> 3253.38] Wayback Machine, Internet Archives. +[3254.24 --> 3254.36] Yeah. +[3254.50 --> 3260.28] I mean, I found some poem I wrote because someone quoted it in a reply to someone else on a forum somewhere. +[3261.22 --> 3264.28] It was a poem about the EVGA 680i motherboard. +[3264.56 --> 3265.56] Oh, I think I've actually read that. +[3265.58 --> 3266.16] It was applicable. +[3266.96 --> 3269.38] But, like, nothing's ever gone. +[3271.76 --> 3272.12] So... +[3272.12 --> 3273.00] I don't know, man. +[3273.12 --> 3273.78] It's interesting. +[3273.78 --> 3278.68] Those are, I think, way deeper topics than, like, the WAN show should necessarily be. +[3278.68 --> 3279.24] Yeah, I know. +[3279.34 --> 3281.46] Why don't we just do something lighthearted here? +[3281.90 --> 3283.74] So, uh, this is fun. +[3284.56 --> 3285.88] Uh, do what? +[3286.54 --> 3287.70] However that's pronounced. +[3288.62 --> 3290.72] Um, PC Master Race problems, man. +[3291.08 --> 3292.90] Tried running Half-Life 2 at 8K. +[3293.18 --> 3295.40] Some games just are not designed for that. +[3296.92 --> 3299.12] The text is so small on the menu. +[3299.58 --> 3300.74] Cannot read the menu. +[3300.74 --> 3303.86] I was talking to people in TeamSpeak about this and they're all like, +[3303.92 --> 3306.08] Oh my god, I can't believe he's so serious about this. +[3306.18 --> 3306.40] Blah, blah, blah. +[3306.46 --> 3307.62] I'm pretty sure he's sarcastic. +[3308.10 --> 3311.28] I'm pretty sure that we're just having some fun with this topic. +[3311.48 --> 3312.68] It looks pretty cool, though, eh? +[3313.48 --> 3314.84] Like, not including the text. +[3314.90 --> 3317.26] Did you look at the second one where it's just, like, the landscape? +[3317.84 --> 3321.42] Other than the sign and the crappy grass, like, it actually looks pretty good. +[3321.78 --> 3323.50] Increasing the resolution of the game does a lot. +[3323.62 --> 3325.28] Resolution is more than just a number. +[3325.28 --> 3327.90] I think we can all agree on that. +[3328.08 --> 3328.90] Oh, Ubi. +[3329.44 --> 3332.70] I'm slamming you so hard in a video that's coming soon. +[3333.28 --> 3334.24] Oh, I know. +[3334.70 --> 3335.24] I know. +[3335.30 --> 3336.06] You were brutal. +[3336.24 --> 3337.18] I was listening to the recording. +[3337.70 --> 3338.78] I was pretty aggressive. +[3339.42 --> 3344.26] Alright, so on to more light-hearted, uh, light-hearted PC Master Race news. +[3344.70 --> 3346.30] Uh, Naughty Dog Developer says, +[3346.44 --> 3351.32] Last of Us 1080p at 60fps is a, quote, transformative experience. +[3351.32 --> 3357.24] This was posted on the forum by TigerBomb8, and it is pretty hilarious. +[3357.70 --> 3359.26] Just slamming everyone. +[3359.62 --> 3360.64] This was great. +[3360.86 --> 3362.32] Original articles on Kit Guru. +[3362.52 --> 3363.40] Want to give us the summary? +[3363.98 --> 3365.32] You pretty much already did it. +[3365.36 --> 3367.32] There's honestly not a ton more to say. +[3367.56 --> 3371.18] Uh, Last of Us Remastered co-director Bruce Stanley also jumped in by saying, +[3371.28 --> 3373.26] I had a dream in 60fps last night. +[3373.44 --> 3375.24] Hashtag TLOU remastered. +[3375.62 --> 3378.94] And a guy, uh, Neil Druckmann then replied saying, +[3378.94 --> 3380.56] What if I told you that was no dream? +[3380.56 --> 3381.78] Um, hashtag believe. +[3381.94 --> 3384.20] Which I think hashtag believe was already a thing for Halo, but, +[3385.00 --> 3385.98] either way. +[3386.24 --> 3388.32] Um, that's, that's cool, and that's coming. +[3388.42 --> 3392.56] And I think that's a really interesting contrast to one that I think is in Rapid Fire, +[3392.92 --> 3394.86] which is where, what is it, Drive Club? +[3395.32 --> 3396.54] Drive Club is 30fps. +[3397.40 --> 3400.36] And they're like, yeah, it's cool, man. +[3400.44 --> 3401.66] Other games are doing it too, right? +[3402.48 --> 3403.64] Don't slam us too hard. +[3404.46 --> 3405.90] They're like, directly, where is it? +[3405.90 --> 3406.88] I'm gonna try and find the quote. +[3406.88 --> 3407.14] Okay. +[3407.14 --> 3408.14] Um... +[3408.14 --> 3412.14] So this was posted by Rohit Kamar... +[3412.70 --> 3413.52] Seriously? +[3415.02 --> 3418.88] I should just start changing people on the forum's names when I can't pronounce them. +[3419.28 --> 3419.46] Huh! +[3420.46 --> 3422.04] So this is from Kotaku. +[3422.20 --> 3426.62] Drive Club is 30fps for the same reason other games are, says director. +[3426.62 --> 3432.34] So, quote unquote, I suspect a lot of people think we may have compromised the gameplay experience +[3432.34 --> 3433.54] by choosing 30fps. +[3433.94 --> 3434.62] Yeah, you think? +[3435.10 --> 3440.06] Um, but we've spent a huge amount of time minimizing the latency between the pad and +[3440.06 --> 3442.30] what happens inside the game so you never feel disconnected. +[3442.88 --> 3443.76] Uh, no. +[3444.42 --> 3446.84] Well, they may have a point. +[3446.84 --> 3448.96] I mean, play Arma 2. +[3449.62 --> 3451.92] And let's talk about laggy engines. +[3452.12 --> 3459.10] Like, I would rather play at 30fps on Source Engine than at 60fps on Arma 2. +[3459.66 --> 3459.94] Yeah. +[3460.38 --> 3460.84] Like, 100%. +[3461.54 --> 3463.20] But they don't have that many comparisons. +[3463.50 --> 3465.48] You can't compare every single game to Arma 2. +[3465.80 --> 3466.60] Yes, I can. +[3467.32 --> 3468.42] But don't. +[3468.72 --> 3470.04] Because that game is dumb. +[3470.42 --> 3471.70] Sorry, but it is. +[3472.10 --> 3472.38] Whoa! +[3472.38 --> 3473.44] Because it is super broken. +[3474.54 --> 3476.14] Like, super broken. +[3476.14 --> 3478.14] I honestly, I wanted to play it. +[3478.22 --> 3481.96] Because I was like, oh yeah, it like pushes graphics on the PC. +[3482.24 --> 3483.32] I'm going to play this game. +[3483.48 --> 3485.06] And I was like doing the training thing. +[3485.24 --> 3485.86] And I was just like. +[3486.10 --> 3486.98] Did you make it past training? +[3487.16 --> 3487.38] No. +[3487.48 --> 3488.10] No, I didn't either. +[3490.40 --> 3491.78] I don't remember where I quit. +[3492.18 --> 3494.06] But I got to like some point. +[3494.18 --> 3495.32] Then I got super frustrated. +[3495.58 --> 3498.98] And then I like was like, oh, I wonder if I can shoot the guy beside me. +[3499.00 --> 3500.84] And I shot him and it worked and I got put in jail. +[3500.84 --> 3502.32] And I was like, screw this game. +[3504.14 --> 3505.82] I couldn't figure out how to get out of jail. +[3505.82 --> 3506.32] I'm sorry. +[3506.32 --> 3507.16] I was like, this is so dumb. +[3507.18 --> 3509.50] Your game is just way too broken. +[3510.12 --> 3512.44] It's like, realism simulator. +[3512.60 --> 3513.90] You're now in jail for 10 years. +[3514.02 --> 3515.42] Well, I don't want to play your game. +[3517.34 --> 3517.92] Whatever, man. +[3517.92 --> 3519.16] It's like realism simulator. +[3519.42 --> 3521.02] I'm going to ask for a refund. +[3521.12 --> 3522.50] Let's see how real that is. +[3522.98 --> 3524.50] And then I'm not going to get it. +[3524.94 --> 3525.30] Nope. +[3525.56 --> 3526.92] Reality of buying games. +[3526.92 --> 3527.48] Yeah. +[3528.20 --> 3528.60] Yeah. +[3530.04 --> 3531.02] Yeah, that sucked. +[3531.94 --> 3533.48] I was actually super excited. +[3533.80 --> 3534.94] And then I got put in jail. +[3535.16 --> 3536.30] And then I never played it again. +[3536.38 --> 3538.50] Here's kind of an amusing article from the Inquirer. +[3538.62 --> 3543.16] Apparently, Windows 2000 gained more market share in June than Windows 8. +[3543.24 --> 3546.78] Now, the Inquirer is known for hating on Microsoft. +[3547.06 --> 3549.42] And they're known for sensationalist headlines. +[3549.42 --> 3552.76] And they're also known for a lot of things. +[3552.92 --> 3555.86] And sort of the most accurate news reporting isn't one of them. +[3556.06 --> 3556.12] No. +[3556.18 --> 3558.40] But this was just a pretty amusing article. +[3558.40 --> 3561.24] Basically looking at operating system market share. +[3561.40 --> 3564.16] Where Windows XP continues to hold a quarter of the market. +[3564.32 --> 3567.10] With Windows 7 holding about half of the market overall. +[3567.50 --> 3570.34] And then everything else splitting that remaining 25%. +[3570.34 --> 3574.86] With Windows Vista coming in at something like a rocking couple percent. +[3574.86 --> 3578.86] And Windows 8 holding only... +[3580.00 --> 3580.40] What is it? +[3580.40 --> 3581.24] This is very odd. +[3581.94 --> 3583.46] Their article was written very oddly. +[3583.64 --> 3585.82] 6.61%. +[3585.82 --> 3589.78] Which is kind of terrible, actually. +[3589.80 --> 3590.98] It's not a lot. +[3592.02 --> 3592.60] I mean... +[3592.60 --> 3593.78] Hoping for that Windows 9. +[3593.98 --> 3596.32] That's why I was so excited about the Windows 9 announcement thing. +[3596.76 --> 3597.86] Because I was like... +[3597.86 --> 3602.88] When Windows 8 was announced, I was like, I'm probably never going to use this. +[3603.50 --> 3604.30] And that's okay. +[3604.30 --> 3605.28] I use it. +[3605.46 --> 3609.02] But I intentionally avoid as much of the horrible stuff. +[3609.02 --> 3611.78] And you use it because it's like pre-installed on the stuff that you use it on. +[3612.38 --> 3613.54] You use it because you're lazy. +[3613.80 --> 3614.62] And that's fine. +[3615.60 --> 3616.52] But like... +[3616.52 --> 3619.28] I've never seen you go out of your way to install it. +[3623.00 --> 3624.00] Not once ever. +[3624.34 --> 3624.86] Nope. +[3625.36 --> 3626.12] Not once. +[3626.20 --> 3627.62] We're both running it right now. +[3628.02 --> 3629.16] On our laptops. +[3629.38 --> 3629.88] Check it out. +[3630.08 --> 3630.68] Modern UI. +[3630.68 --> 3631.10] Because you know what? +[3632.08 --> 3632.52] Yeah. +[3633.16 --> 3633.44] Woo! +[3633.44 --> 3634.56] Yeah! +[3634.92 --> 3636.22] That thing that he never uses. +[3636.30 --> 3636.60] Yeah! +[3637.28 --> 3640.52] Because you click the thing that says desktop and you never go back. +[3640.60 --> 3646.12] I know two hotkeys on the computer that are helpful for managing Windows 8. +[3646.48 --> 3650.82] The Windows key for opening Modern UI and Alt-Tab for getting back out of it. +[3650.82 --> 3651.82] Yeah! +[3653.98 --> 3657.36] Because oops you pressed that button and then wait I gotta get back to my stuff. +[3657.76 --> 3659.40] My actually useful... +[3659.40 --> 3659.88] The thing that only... +[3659.88 --> 3661.20] I mean it's not that bad. +[3661.40 --> 3665.90] The only thing that really drives me crazy about it that just makes me want to put my fist through the screen +[3665.90 --> 3669.74] is on a new install trying to open an MP3. +[3670.46 --> 3671.82] Or like a video file. +[3671.82 --> 3672.82] The thing that I do... +[3672.82 --> 3672.98] The thing that I do... +[3672.98 --> 3675.18] And then permissions things I find to be a big issue. +[3675.38 --> 3675.64] Ah! +[3675.94 --> 3679.36] At least it's actually easier to disable than it was on Vista and 7. +[3679.74 --> 3681.14] It just has a prompt that's like, +[3681.22 --> 3681.48] Boop! +[3681.52 --> 3682.42] Do you want to get rid of UAC? +[3683.08 --> 3683.40] Do you... +[3683.40 --> 3683.52] Yes. +[3683.52 --> 3684.52] No, not even just UAC. +[3684.88 --> 3685.18] Oh! +[3685.18 --> 3688.88] Like trying to do any deep-rooted stuff is like really annoying. +[3689.00 --> 3689.48] Oh, okay. +[3689.54 --> 3689.80] Fair enough. +[3689.86 --> 3691.12] Like really, really annoying. +[3691.78 --> 3692.22] I don't know. +[3692.34 --> 3693.94] I've just found... +[3693.94 --> 3696.68] Everything that I try to do on Windows 8 or 8.1, +[3696.96 --> 3699.18] I just find it's extremely taxing. +[3699.82 --> 3700.10] Okay. +[3700.24 --> 3700.82] When it really didn't need to. +[3700.82 --> 3701.14] Yeah. +[3701.40 --> 3703.14] Actually, there's another example. +[3703.30 --> 3704.68] Except for stuff like file transfers, +[3704.84 --> 3707.20] which are absolutely freaking fantastic +[3707.20 --> 3709.98] and have almost brought me to Windows 8 multiple times. +[3710.20 --> 3710.58] Yeah. +[3710.76 --> 3711.66] That's really good. +[3712.00 --> 3714.58] I mean, there are a few things that drive me kind of crazy. +[3714.58 --> 3715.10] That's fantastic. +[3715.76 --> 3716.84] Like user... +[3716.84 --> 3718.04] Okay, so user accounts. +[3718.40 --> 3718.66] Okay? +[3718.78 --> 3719.50] If I'm like, +[3719.82 --> 3721.84] yeah, I got my user accounts here. +[3722.08 --> 3723.38] I want to like... +[3723.38 --> 3725.84] I want to change something about it. +[3725.94 --> 3727.28] I can change my account type. +[3727.28 --> 3729.98] I can manage another account +[3729.98 --> 3731.76] and I can change UAC settings. +[3731.98 --> 3732.96] Other than that, +[3733.24 --> 3733.78] if I'm like... +[3733.78 --> 3734.08] Oh, no. +[3734.16 --> 3734.32] Sorry. +[3734.38 --> 3734.70] Wrong thing. +[3734.94 --> 3735.50] If I'm like, +[3735.60 --> 3736.66] yeah, I want to make change... +[3736.66 --> 3739.10] Oh, really? +[3741.64 --> 3742.08] What? +[3742.08 --> 3742.44] Ah. +[3743.00 --> 3744.64] And then the flip side of that +[3744.64 --> 3745.90] is when you're in modern UI +[3745.90 --> 3747.64] and you try to do certain things, +[3747.94 --> 3749.94] it just drops you out of it for that. +[3750.26 --> 3751.02] And I'm just like, +[3751.12 --> 3752.38] oh, really? +[3752.90 --> 3754.48] It just can't decide what it is. +[3754.54 --> 3755.00] It's broken +[3755.00 --> 3757.34] and maybe Windows 9 will be better, +[3757.44 --> 3759.00] but honestly... +[3759.00 --> 3762.48] It runs games a little bit faster, +[3762.64 --> 3764.30] but my computer's kind of beast +[3764.30 --> 3766.60] and most games are crappy console ports anyways. +[3766.60 --> 3767.34] People are saying +[3767.34 --> 3768.44] after you learn all the hotkeys, +[3768.54 --> 3769.16] it's very usable. +[3769.60 --> 3769.76] Nope. +[3771.48 --> 3771.92] Okay. +[3772.16 --> 3773.68] After you learn all the hotkeys, +[3773.80 --> 3775.20] Adobe Premiere is very usable. +[3775.88 --> 3777.28] That doesn't make it intuitive +[3777.28 --> 3778.76] and that doesn't make it +[3778.76 --> 3780.92] a well-designed UI. +[3781.42 --> 3783.30] It just makes it usable +[3783.30 --> 3784.08] when you're an expert. +[3784.20 --> 3785.30] I mean, you could say that about anything. +[3785.84 --> 3787.40] You know, mixing cocktails is easy. +[3787.74 --> 3789.14] Once you learn what all the buttons are +[3789.14 --> 3789.72] in a spaceship, +[3789.88 --> 3791.04] it becomes pretty awesome. +[3791.38 --> 3792.74] Memorize every combination +[3792.74 --> 3794.18] and, you know, +[3794.54 --> 3796.02] get really good at doing it +[3796.02 --> 3796.70] and then it's easy. +[3796.84 --> 3797.78] It's like, yeah, okay. +[3797.92 --> 3798.98] Hooray, DOS and Linux. +[3799.88 --> 3801.88] Yeah, DOS is easy if you... +[3801.88 --> 3803.96] It's super easy. +[3804.10 --> 3805.48] You can probably do things faster in DOS +[3805.48 --> 3806.16] than you can in Windows +[3806.16 --> 3807.06] if you know everything. +[3807.26 --> 3808.08] Yeah, there are certain things +[3808.08 --> 3808.88] that I can do faster +[3808.88 --> 3809.58] in a command prompt. +[3809.78 --> 3809.94] Yep. +[3810.20 --> 3810.36] Yep. +[3811.26 --> 3812.48] So speaking of which, +[3812.68 --> 3814.54] Goodbytes has a post here +[3814.54 --> 3816.32] about Windows 9 preview +[3816.32 --> 3817.86] expected for the end of the year. +[3818.26 --> 3819.90] So thank you for posting that +[3819.90 --> 3821.28] and I don't know. +[3821.70 --> 3822.40] Anything to say? +[3822.74 --> 3823.74] Not a ton more +[3823.74 --> 3824.72] than what we've already said. +[3824.88 --> 3826.48] They've said many times +[3826.48 --> 3827.14] that they're going to be +[3827.14 --> 3828.20] trying to cater more +[3828.20 --> 3830.96] to the Windows threshold +[3830.96 --> 3832.08] desktop experience +[3832.08 --> 3833.32] kind of thingy-majig going on +[3833.32 --> 3834.28] which is fantastic. +[3834.42 --> 3834.90] That's awesome. +[3834.98 --> 3835.42] Good to hear. +[3835.60 --> 3837.18] Who knows if they'll actually do it. +[3837.30 --> 3837.92] Hello, Microsoft. +[3838.10 --> 3839.14] We're going to support PC gaming. +[3840.90 --> 3842.16] So who knows? +[3842.32 --> 3843.46] They've also talked more +[3843.46 --> 3844.90] about stuff like this +[3844.90 --> 3845.68] and the yoga +[3845.68 --> 3848.04] where it should support +[3848.04 --> 3849.04] better transfer +[3849.04 --> 3850.38] between when you flip your screen +[3850.38 --> 3851.28] and it'll automatically switch +[3851.28 --> 3852.10] to something like Metro. +[3852.10 --> 3852.74] Mm-hmm. +[3853.60 --> 3854.78] Should support better +[3854.78 --> 3856.44] of doing madness. +[3857.10 --> 3858.28] Whatever that even means. +[3858.70 --> 3859.36] I don't know. +[3859.74 --> 3860.44] A lot of it seems like +[3860.44 --> 3861.32] they're talking out of their butt. +[3861.40 --> 3862.00] They heard a lot of people +[3862.00 --> 3863.04] complaining that they ditched +[3863.04 --> 3864.84] the Windows 7 user +[3864.84 --> 3866.00] desktop experience thing +[3866.00 --> 3866.92] and now they're trying to be like, +[3867.02 --> 3868.38] yeah, we're bringing it back. +[3869.18 --> 3870.16] But it's Microsoft +[3870.16 --> 3871.06] so who freaking knows. +[3871.52 --> 3871.96] They better +[3871.96 --> 3873.38] because this is the second one. +[3873.96 --> 3875.48] They jumped once +[3875.48 --> 3876.16] and then it was bad +[3876.16 --> 3877.08] so they have to fix everything +[3877.08 --> 3877.68] and jump again. +[3878.06 --> 3878.48] And then the one, +[3878.74 --> 3879.92] Windows 10 or whatever it's called +[3879.92 --> 3881.20] will probably be terrible again. +[3881.34 --> 3881.76] And I don't know. +[3881.82 --> 3882.84] There are claims about, +[3882.92 --> 3883.30] you know, +[3883.38 --> 3884.14] supporting switching +[3884.14 --> 3885.92] between the Metro UI +[3885.92 --> 3887.80] and the Windows-style mode +[3887.80 --> 3888.62] based on whether or not +[3888.62 --> 3889.50] a keyboard is connected. +[3889.70 --> 3890.68] I kind of look at that +[3890.68 --> 3891.04] and I go, +[3891.22 --> 3891.98] look, I don't know. +[3892.10 --> 3892.72] On Surface, +[3892.86 --> 3894.30] you guys couldn't even figure out +[3894.30 --> 3894.96] whether to use +[3894.96 --> 3895.80] the on-screen keyboard +[3895.80 --> 3896.94] or the connected keyboard +[3896.94 --> 3899.68] about 3% to 4% of the time, +[3899.82 --> 3901.12] which doesn't sound like +[3901.12 --> 3901.84] that big of a deal. +[3902.02 --> 3902.84] But every single time +[3902.84 --> 3903.32] that happens. +[3903.46 --> 3904.38] But every time it happens, +[3904.48 --> 3904.96] you're just like, +[3905.26 --> 3905.66] really? +[3906.94 --> 3908.26] And you couple that +[3908.26 --> 3909.52] with the Windows 8's +[3909.52 --> 3911.04] integrated on-screen keyboard +[3911.04 --> 3911.72] is terrible. +[3911.98 --> 3913.40] Like, it's not a tablet keyboard +[3913.40 --> 3913.92] at all. +[3914.12 --> 3915.48] It's basically unusable. +[3916.16 --> 3917.32] And you just... +[3917.32 --> 3920.36] All the jokes. +[3921.32 --> 3922.26] I hope they fix it. +[3922.26 --> 3922.94] This is kind of a ranty, +[3923.38 --> 3924.92] discombobulated show, +[3924.98 --> 3925.36] isn't it? +[3925.46 --> 3925.86] It is. +[3925.96 --> 3927.14] We're just mad about things +[3927.14 --> 3928.52] because it's hot and annoying +[3928.52 --> 3929.80] and there's kids screaming outside +[3929.80 --> 3931.18] and we're old. +[3931.24 --> 3932.12] Okay, so good news. +[3932.20 --> 3933.18] Microsoft and Canon +[3933.18 --> 3936.06] have agreed to just kind of +[3936.06 --> 3937.52] use each other's patents +[3937.52 --> 3938.62] and no big deal. +[3938.92 --> 3939.84] I would like to see +[3939.84 --> 3940.86] so much more +[3940.86 --> 3943.08] of intellectual property sharing +[3943.08 --> 3944.32] between companies +[3944.32 --> 3945.68] where they're cooperating +[3945.68 --> 3946.60] to make the technology +[3946.60 --> 3947.58] better for us +[3947.58 --> 3949.02] as opposed to just +[3949.02 --> 3950.24] trolling each other +[3950.24 --> 3951.48] and suing each other all day. +[3951.54 --> 3952.56] I mean, I think that +[3952.56 --> 3954.16] pretty bitter rivals +[3954.16 --> 3955.44] have shown that +[3955.44 --> 3956.78] it's possible in the past. +[3956.92 --> 3958.86] Guys like Apple and HTC, +[3958.98 --> 3959.56] for example, +[3960.04 --> 3961.08] where there was a lot +[3961.08 --> 3962.00] of butt hurt there +[3962.00 --> 3963.40] and it was just +[3963.40 --> 3964.42] dragging them both down +[3964.42 --> 3965.16] and they're both just like, +[3965.46 --> 3967.30] yo, okay, ceasefire. +[3967.74 --> 3968.50] Like, that one was +[3968.50 --> 3970.30] a relatively short-term deal, +[3970.40 --> 3972.34] but let's just not do this anymore. +[3973.14 --> 3975.00] And I'm just happy to see it. +[3975.06 --> 3975.94] I mean, I don't know, +[3976.02 --> 3978.20] I don't know necessarily +[3978.20 --> 3979.68] what's going to come of this. +[3979.94 --> 3981.70] Better camera on Surface 4, +[3981.84 --> 3983.26] I guess we could hope for. +[3983.26 --> 3984.78] I thought it was kind of weird. +[3985.66 --> 3987.08] Maybe Canon will improve +[3987.08 --> 3988.22] their camera software. +[3988.78 --> 3989.58] Maybe Microsoft's +[3989.58 --> 3990.30] going to make some printers? +[3992.12 --> 3993.98] Like, I don't know. +[3994.62 --> 3995.86] I'm not, I'm not sure. +[3996.12 --> 3997.00] Do we really want Microsoft +[3997.00 --> 3998.12] helping Canon with software? +[3998.26 --> 3999.04] But the thing about, +[3999.10 --> 4000.36] the thing about these companies +[4000.36 --> 4001.20] is that they have +[4001.20 --> 4001.90] a lot of patents +[4001.90 --> 4002.92] that go far beyond +[4002.92 --> 4004.72] printers and cameras +[4004.72 --> 4005.92] and operating systems. +[4006.10 --> 4007.14] So who knows +[4007.14 --> 4007.80] what's going to go on? +[4007.84 --> 4008.82] I mean, Canon owns +[4008.82 --> 4010.40] display technology patents +[4010.40 --> 4011.18] and stuff like that. +[4011.24 --> 4012.62] So who knows? +[4012.86 --> 4014.08] But there you go. +[4015.02 --> 4016.16] Ah, every time I think +[4016.16 --> 4017.58] about Canon displays, +[4017.94 --> 4019.44] I wish SED had come out. +[4020.50 --> 4022.74] It was better then +[4022.74 --> 4023.52] than anything +[4023.52 --> 4025.26] that still currently exists. +[4026.34 --> 4027.64] And it never happened. +[4029.18 --> 4031.20] I think it was a patent dispute too. +[4031.72 --> 4032.06] I think so. +[4032.06 --> 4032.58] I think it was an +[4032.58 --> 4033.72] intellectual property thing. +[4033.86 --> 4033.98] Yeah. +[4034.58 --> 4035.96] Oh, so mad. +[4037.58 --> 4038.90] Um, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4038.90 --> 4039.24] Don't worry. +[4039.28 --> 4039.84] I hadn't forgotten. +[4039.98 --> 4040.34] Okay. +[4040.40 --> 4041.78] So it's sponsor time. +[4042.32 --> 4042.68] Squarespace. +[4043.48 --> 4043.68] Woo! +[4044.70 --> 4045.88] I know we talk about +[4045.88 --> 4046.86] Squarespace a lot, +[4047.04 --> 4048.10] but the cold hard truth +[4048.10 --> 4048.64] is Squarespace +[4048.64 --> 4050.00] is pretty awesome. +[4050.12 --> 4051.14] And for a number of reasons, +[4051.50 --> 4053.02] Squarespace is the, +[4053.16 --> 4054.10] and this is kind of funny +[4054.10 --> 4054.94] because we were talking +[4054.94 --> 4056.30] about how Squarespace +[4056.30 --> 4058.46] is what LinusMediaGroup.com +[4058.46 --> 4059.92] runs on the other day. +[4060.14 --> 4061.16] And then, um, +[4061.22 --> 4061.92] one of the, +[4061.98 --> 4063.22] one of the sort of +[4063.22 --> 4064.16] resident buttheads +[4064.16 --> 4064.76] on the forum +[4064.76 --> 4065.80] was all like, +[4066.12 --> 4066.86] I, I, +[4067.24 --> 4067.76] there's something, +[4067.92 --> 4068.50] I'm angry, +[4068.66 --> 4069.12] blah, blah, blah. +[4069.20 --> 4069.74] You're always talking +[4069.74 --> 4070.32] about how great +[4070.32 --> 4071.16] Squarespace is +[4071.16 --> 4071.76] and the forum +[4071.76 --> 4072.54] is slow +[4072.54 --> 4073.62] and I got a +[4073.62 --> 4074.90] captcha or something +[4074.90 --> 4076.26] and I'm just like, +[4076.42 --> 4076.70] well, +[4076.78 --> 4077.66] the forum doesn't +[4077.66 --> 4078.40] run on Squarespace. +[4078.78 --> 4079.06] So, +[4079.20 --> 4080.46] yeah. +[4083.12 --> 4083.56] Um, +[4083.80 --> 4084.66] yeah. +[4084.66 --> 4087.18] so LinusMediaGroup.com +[4087.18 --> 4088.30] runs on Squarespace +[4088.30 --> 4090.06] because it's the fast, +[4090.14 --> 4090.78] easy way to create +[4090.78 --> 4091.42] a beautiful website +[4091.42 --> 4092.22] that looks great +[4092.22 --> 4092.78] on a phone, +[4092.90 --> 4093.86] looks great on a tablet, +[4094.00 --> 4094.98] looks great on a desktop +[4094.98 --> 4096.60] and is extremely versatile. +[4096.92 --> 4097.64] You can have something +[4097.64 --> 4098.48] for your blog, +[4098.84 --> 4099.76] for your portfolio, +[4100.26 --> 4101.54] for your online store +[4101.54 --> 4102.72] and the great thing +[4102.72 --> 4103.30] about it is +[4103.30 --> 4104.98] even if you are not, +[4105.34 --> 4105.82] yeah, +[4105.88 --> 4106.52] people know who it is. +[4106.74 --> 4108.84] Even if you are not, +[4108.94 --> 4109.50] uh, +[4109.58 --> 4109.92] you know, +[4110.04 --> 4110.84] web designer, +[4110.96 --> 4111.74] even if you're not +[4111.74 --> 4112.86] a graphic designer, +[4113.08 --> 4113.86] they make things +[4113.86 --> 4114.90] relatively easy +[4114.90 --> 4116.38] so that normal people, +[4116.50 --> 4117.10] as long as you got +[4117.10 --> 4117.70] a little bit of +[4117.70 --> 4118.40] computer savvy, +[4118.62 --> 4119.48] can figure it out +[4119.48 --> 4120.58] mostly on their own +[4120.58 --> 4121.52] and even people +[4121.52 --> 4122.44] who can't figure it out +[4122.44 --> 4122.90] on their own +[4122.90 --> 4124.04] can use their 24-7 +[4124.04 --> 4124.68] tech support +[4124.68 --> 4126.56] to get some help +[4126.56 --> 4127.32] and, +[4127.42 --> 4127.68] uh, +[4127.72 --> 4128.00] oh yeah, +[4128.08 --> 4128.56] there's more. +[4128.92 --> 4129.98] Squarespace also +[4129.98 --> 4131.10] is giving away +[4131.10 --> 4132.00] another website. +[4132.60 --> 4132.72] So, +[4132.82 --> 4133.10] I'm like, +[4134.24 --> 4134.76] ah! +[4135.36 --> 4136.32] Running for websites? +[4136.58 --> 4136.78] Yeah, +[4136.88 --> 4137.38] running for, +[4137.54 --> 4137.98] running for, +[4138.06 --> 4138.72] you don't actually +[4138.72 --> 4139.44] have to run. +[4139.64 --> 4140.30] Squarespace should have +[4140.30 --> 4141.48] a super long marathon +[4141.48 --> 4141.90] and everyone +[4141.90 --> 4142.34] that finishes +[4142.34 --> 4143.46] it gets a free website. +[4145.10 --> 4145.84] And then, +[4146.46 --> 4146.96] they, +[4147.68 --> 4147.98] wait, +[4148.08 --> 4148.24] what? +[4148.82 --> 4149.18] I don't know. +[4149.46 --> 4149.78] You know, +[4149.90 --> 4150.46] it's funny +[4150.46 --> 4151.64] because you rip on me +[4151.64 --> 4152.80] for saying stupid stuff +[4152.80 --> 4153.18] sometimes +[4153.18 --> 4154.68] when sometimes +[4154.68 --> 4155.58] you just aren't +[4155.58 --> 4156.74] necessarily following +[4156.74 --> 4157.38] what I'm saying +[4157.38 --> 4158.04] as opposed to +[4158.04 --> 4159.52] some interesting stuff +[4159.52 --> 4160.12] for advertising. +[4160.28 --> 4160.32] Like, +[4160.38 --> 4160.80] they had that guy +[4160.80 --> 4161.80] make the song +[4161.80 --> 4162.34] and they had all +[4162.34 --> 4162.78] this other kind +[4162.78 --> 4163.40] of stuff going on. +[4163.58 --> 4164.40] Squarespace marathon? +[4164.40 --> 4164.58] If they did a +[4164.58 --> 4165.24] Squarespace marathon, +[4165.46 --> 4166.46] that would get press. +[4166.58 --> 4167.92] People would talk about it +[4167.92 --> 4168.84] because it's weird. +[4169.96 --> 4171.46] How many website designers +[4171.46 --> 4172.60] could run a marathon? +[4173.84 --> 4174.50] I could. +[4174.58 --> 4174.76] I mean, +[4174.82 --> 4175.40] let's talk, +[4175.42 --> 4176.76] let's talk Venn diagrams, +[4176.94 --> 4177.08] okay? +[4177.12 --> 4178.06] Could you run a marathon? +[4178.88 --> 4179.62] I run 8K. +[4179.84 --> 4180.20] What's the, +[4180.20 --> 4181.16] what's the definition +[4181.16 --> 4181.54] of a marathon? +[4181.54 --> 4182.54] A lot more than 8K. +[4182.70 --> 4183.20] Is there like +[4183.20 --> 4184.06] an actual definition +[4184.06 --> 4184.28] of a marathon? +[4184.28 --> 4184.60] Yes. +[4184.80 --> 4186.36] A marathon is a specific thing. +[4186.72 --> 4187.78] Just like a half marathon +[4187.78 --> 4189.20] is half of that specific thing. +[4189.22 --> 4189.72] 26 miles, +[4189.80 --> 4190.16] I quit. +[4192.16 --> 4192.56] Yeah. +[4193.24 --> 4194.06] So let's talk +[4194.06 --> 4194.76] Venn diagrams +[4194.76 --> 4195.24] for a minute here. +[4195.24 --> 4195.80] We've got people +[4195.80 --> 4196.90] who can run marathons +[4196.90 --> 4198.06] and we've got +[4198.06 --> 4200.00] website designers. +[4201.68 --> 4202.32] Put like +[4202.32 --> 4203.32] a fingernail. +[4203.50 --> 4203.62] Yeah. +[4204.12 --> 4205.32] Maybe they touch each other. +[4205.54 --> 4205.90] You know what? +[4205.92 --> 4207.12] I want to hear from you guys +[4207.12 --> 4207.90] in the Twitch chatter +[4207.90 --> 4208.42] on Twitter. +[4208.64 --> 4210.64] Are you a website designer +[4210.64 --> 4212.20] who can run a marathon? +[4212.64 --> 4213.32] And if so, +[4213.50 --> 4214.08] kudos to you. +[4214.40 --> 4214.62] Anyway, +[4214.72 --> 4215.68] the point is... +[4215.68 --> 4216.28] Yeah, 40 kilometers. +[4217.64 --> 4218.32] Shoddy not. +[4218.50 --> 4218.78] Yeah, +[4218.84 --> 4219.46] and it changes. +[4219.46 --> 4221.56] So 42 more recently. +[4221.76 --> 4221.98] Oh no, +[4222.04 --> 4222.18] oh. +[4222.18 --> 4222.68] That's older. +[4222.98 --> 4223.12] No, +[4223.16 --> 4223.46] that's newer. +[4224.28 --> 4225.12] 1924? +[4225.50 --> 4226.86] Is newer than 1896. +[4226.88 --> 4227.06] Oh, +[4227.10 --> 4227.70] I thought it was a 19. +[4230.04 --> 4231.26] You were going after me +[4231.26 --> 4232.76] about that privacy topic earlier +[4232.76 --> 4234.36] so I'm taking every opportunity +[4234.36 --> 4235.26] from now +[4235.26 --> 4236.22] until the rest of the show. +[4237.06 --> 4238.38] So the point is, +[4238.44 --> 4238.64] right, +[4238.76 --> 4239.08] Squarespace. +[4239.28 --> 4240.16] They're giving away a website. +[4240.34 --> 4241.30] All you have to do +[4241.30 --> 4242.26] is tweet with +[4242.26 --> 4242.86] hashtag +[4242.86 --> 4243.98] LinusSquarespace +[4243.98 --> 4245.00] sometime +[4245.00 --> 4246.64] in the next week +[4246.64 --> 4248.14] and we will show off +[4248.14 --> 4248.88] your website +[4248.88 --> 4249.96] on the show +[4249.96 --> 4250.82] and then +[4250.82 --> 4252.02] one of those +[4252.02 --> 4252.84] lucky winners +[4252.84 --> 4254.08] will get a free site +[4254.08 --> 4255.28] for a year. +[4255.50 --> 4256.16] For those of you +[4256.16 --> 4256.88] who don't win, +[4257.20 --> 4257.94] you can visit +[4257.94 --> 4258.72] squarespace.com +[4258.72 --> 4259.30] slash Linus +[4259.30 --> 4260.24] for a free trial. +[4260.42 --> 4261.26] It's a two-week trial +[4261.26 --> 4262.78] and you can get 10% off +[4262.78 --> 4264.02] if you use offer code Linus. +[4264.14 --> 4264.86] The great thing +[4264.86 --> 4265.96] about the free trial +[4265.96 --> 4266.82] is that +[4266.82 --> 4267.78] you can completely +[4267.78 --> 4268.56] design your website, +[4268.76 --> 4269.84] decide if you like the service, +[4270.00 --> 4270.96] decide if the scalability +[4270.96 --> 4271.90] is going to work for you +[4271.90 --> 4272.70] and then +[4272.70 --> 4274.20] you have no obligation +[4274.20 --> 4275.00] to use it +[4275.00 --> 4276.10] whatsoever. +[4277.08 --> 4278.62] So we've actually got, +[4278.74 --> 4279.82] I've got another one. +[4279.90 --> 4281.08] I've got one to show you guys +[4281.08 --> 4282.38] that's from last time +[4282.38 --> 4283.34] we did one of these. +[4283.46 --> 4284.06] Here we go, +[4284.18 --> 4285.00] Linus is screen sharing. +[4285.24 --> 4286.02] Last time we did +[4286.02 --> 4286.94] one of these giveaways. +[4287.26 --> 4287.74] I'm just going to +[4287.74 --> 4288.84] put it on the top. +[4289.06 --> 4290.92] So this is Pascal Brunner's +[4290.92 --> 4292.28] website, evidently. +[4292.44 --> 4292.98] I haven't actually +[4292.98 --> 4293.90] looked at this one before. +[4294.00 --> 4294.86] I just picked out one of them. +[4294.94 --> 4295.58] So the idea +[4295.58 --> 4297.20] is that it's super easy +[4297.20 --> 4297.84] to build something +[4297.84 --> 4298.94] that is as complicated +[4298.94 --> 4299.92] or as simple +[4299.92 --> 4300.52] as you'd like +[4300.52 --> 4301.82] and it should look great, +[4301.96 --> 4302.72] perform well, +[4303.02 --> 4303.78] and just generally +[4303.78 --> 4304.32] be pleasing +[4304.32 --> 4305.30] for people to browse. +[4305.66 --> 4306.44] Something that +[4306.44 --> 4307.86] you really can't do +[4307.86 --> 4308.46] with WordPress +[4308.46 --> 4309.76] or similar services +[4309.76 --> 4310.40] unless you're willing +[4310.40 --> 4311.58] to put a lot more work +[4311.58 --> 4312.00] into it. +[4312.48 --> 4313.66] I happen to be using +[4313.66 --> 4314.16] my touchscreen +[4314.16 --> 4315.38] to navigate it right now. +[4315.54 --> 4316.38] So, you know, +[4316.44 --> 4317.44] the kinds of compatibility +[4317.44 --> 4318.48] things that you just +[4318.48 --> 4319.20] don't have to really +[4319.20 --> 4319.82] think about. +[4320.56 --> 4321.26] And, uh, +[4321.28 --> 4321.88] look at this. +[4322.06 --> 4322.58] So we can, +[4322.70 --> 4323.76] we can browse +[4323.76 --> 4324.98] his travel blog. +[4325.24 --> 4325.54] Apparently, +[4325.72 --> 4326.44] hasn't filled that in. +[4326.70 --> 4327.42] Maybe, uh, +[4327.48 --> 4328.14] maybe he's hoping +[4328.14 --> 4329.80] to win the website +[4329.80 --> 4330.70] before fleshing it out +[4330.70 --> 4331.16] a little bit more. +[4331.22 --> 4331.78] But the point is +[4331.78 --> 4332.44] that it works +[4332.44 --> 4333.28] and it really doesn't +[4333.28 --> 4334.44] take that much work +[4334.44 --> 4335.06] for it to work. +[4335.06 --> 4335.98] Which leads us +[4335.98 --> 4337.28] to our second sponsor +[4337.28 --> 4338.16] of the show today, +[4338.94 --> 4339.74] FaZe, apparently. +[4340.38 --> 4340.82] FaZe, yeah. +[4341.76 --> 4342.14] I don't, +[4342.88 --> 4343.50] I don't know. +[4344.64 --> 4345.64] Is that his symbol? +[4346.32 --> 4346.80] I haven't seen that. +[4346.80 --> 4347.64] It's actually not that different. +[4347.64 --> 4348.34] He's gonna get naked. +[4348.46 --> 4349.46] Yeah, I'm getting naked +[4349.46 --> 4351.32] because I believe +[4351.32 --> 4352.04] in wearing my +[4352.04 --> 4352.94] WAN Show shirt +[4352.94 --> 4353.90] for the WAN Show +[4353.90 --> 4355.24] as much as I can. +[4356.92 --> 4358.18] It's really similar. +[4358.64 --> 4359.60] It's not the same. +[4359.98 --> 4360.88] Yeah, it's not the same. +[4361.52 --> 4362.22] Alright, so +[4362.22 --> 4363.34] 5-4 Club, +[4363.70 --> 4365.50] are you a big fan +[4365.50 --> 4366.70] of shopping in the mall? +[4367.44 --> 4368.78] Are you a big fan +[4368.78 --> 4371.58] of clothing salespeople? +[4372.36 --> 4373.72] Are you a big fan +[4373.72 --> 4374.32] of, +[4374.40 --> 4375.54] what else is horrible +[4375.54 --> 4376.72] about shopping for clothes? +[4377.00 --> 4378.00] Those were like +[4378.00 --> 4380.12] pretty widely encompassing. +[4380.22 --> 4381.20] Are you a fan +[4381.20 --> 4382.22] of, you know, +[4382.60 --> 4383.10] keeping up +[4383.10 --> 4384.24] with the latest fashions? +[4384.32 --> 4385.24] Is the best thing +[4385.24 --> 4385.94] in the store +[4385.94 --> 4386.88] the boyfriend chair? +[4387.08 --> 4388.24] Yeah, I know, right? +[4388.80 --> 4389.98] Because yes it is. +[4390.14 --> 4391.24] Because yes it is. +[4391.24 --> 4392.90] So 5-4 Club +[4392.90 --> 4394.34] is basically +[4394.34 --> 4394.92] the way +[4394.92 --> 4395.78] to not have to worry +[4395.78 --> 4396.92] about your wardrobe anymore. +[4397.34 --> 4398.44] The basic premise +[4398.44 --> 4399.06] behind it +[4399.06 --> 4400.02] is they send you +[4400.02 --> 4400.90] at least +[4400.90 --> 4403.24] $150 worth of clothing +[4403.24 --> 4404.28] every month +[4404.28 --> 4405.50] and then what you pay +[4405.50 --> 4407.64] is $50 a month. +[4407.72 --> 4408.54] And what's cool +[4408.54 --> 4409.16] about that +[4409.16 --> 4410.38] is that you +[4410.38 --> 4411.50] don't have to think +[4411.50 --> 4412.06] about anything. +[4412.18 --> 4412.80] They assign you +[4412.80 --> 4414.10] a personalized stylist +[4414.10 --> 4415.38] who picks stuff +[4415.38 --> 4416.02] out for you +[4416.02 --> 4416.84] so you don't do +[4416.84 --> 4417.52] any thinking. +[4417.84 --> 4418.78] New clothing arrives +[4418.78 --> 4419.34] once a month. +[4419.44 --> 4419.88] You just do +[4419.88 --> 4420.56] a quick questionnaire. +[4420.78 --> 4421.48] It takes less +[4421.48 --> 4422.56] than a minute +[4422.56 --> 4423.94] which is pretty +[4423.94 --> 4424.62] darn cool +[4424.62 --> 4425.90] and then you +[4425.90 --> 4426.52] basically say +[4426.52 --> 4426.92] okay look +[4426.92 --> 4427.84] I like these shoes +[4427.84 --> 4428.80] I like these shirts +[4428.80 --> 4429.84] I like these pants +[4429.84 --> 4431.52] and they just +[4431.52 --> 4432.76] completely deal +[4432.76 --> 4433.98] with the whole thing +[4433.98 --> 4435.08] for you. +[4435.92 --> 4436.66] Luke, do you want +[4436.66 --> 4437.12] to show off +[4437.12 --> 4438.44] your 5-4 Club shirt? +[4438.52 --> 4439.26] It's a little tight. +[4439.70 --> 4440.40] I think everyone +[4440.40 --> 4441.90] can see it. +[4442.36 --> 4443.06] I liked the +[4443.06 --> 4444.68] more conservative +[4444.68 --> 4445.50] oh no we both +[4445.50 --> 4446.18] have pretty conservative +[4446.18 --> 4446.82] design shirts. +[4446.82 --> 4447.88] Nick has one +[4447.88 --> 4448.24] that's like +[4448.24 --> 4449.72] 5-4 clothing +[4449.72 --> 4451.02] and I actually +[4451.02 --> 4451.96] like the small logo +[4451.96 --> 4452.62] that apparently +[4452.62 --> 4453.10] looks like +[4453.10 --> 4453.82] FaZe's logo +[4453.82 --> 4455.60] but yeah +[4455.60 --> 4455.94] I think it's +[4455.94 --> 4456.38] pretty cool. +[4456.72 --> 4457.46] It's speckled. +[4458.14 --> 4458.38] I don't know +[4458.38 --> 4458.68] if the camera +[4458.68 --> 4459.10] can see that +[4459.10 --> 4459.50] very well. +[4460.38 --> 4461.00] Not really. +[4461.66 --> 4461.98] But yeah +[4461.98 --> 4462.44] there you go. +[4462.88 --> 4463.56] I like V-necks +[4463.56 --> 4464.20] and it's a V-neck +[4464.20 --> 4465.02] so that's pretty cool. +[4466.06 --> 4466.54] Yeah they've got +[4466.54 --> 4466.94] a whole bunch +[4466.94 --> 4467.54] of different stuff. +[4467.68 --> 4468.40] You're not really +[4468.40 --> 4470.26] stuck with one thing +[4470.26 --> 4471.00] versus another one. +[4471.00 --> 4472.46] what do you like +[4472.46 --> 4473.42] kind of questionnaire +[4473.42 --> 4474.26] when you sign up +[4474.26 --> 4474.48] right? +[4474.78 --> 4475.36] Yeah and I thought +[4475.36 --> 4476.54] they weren't necessarily +[4476.54 --> 4477.58] I thought they were +[4477.58 --> 4478.36] kind of pulling my leg +[4478.36 --> 4478.74] when they said +[4478.74 --> 4479.54] it takes less than a minute +[4479.54 --> 4480.44] but it actually took me +[4480.44 --> 4481.74] like 54 seconds +[4481.74 --> 4483.06] or whatever +[4483.06 --> 4484.18] something along those lines. +[4484.50 --> 4485.18] I love those surveys +[4485.18 --> 4485.58] that are like +[4485.58 --> 4486.38] this will take like +[4486.38 --> 4487.08] three minutes +[4487.08 --> 4487.98] half an hour later +[4487.98 --> 4488.30] and you're like +[4488.30 --> 4489.12] oh god +[4489.12 --> 4490.78] why is there so much crap? +[4491.60 --> 4491.96] But yeah +[4491.96 --> 4492.78] they put you through +[4492.78 --> 4493.40] this little questionnaire +[4493.40 --> 4494.00] survey thing +[4494.00 --> 4494.70] so you don't get stuff +[4494.70 --> 4495.48] you're totally not +[4495.48 --> 4495.92] going to want. +[4496.26 --> 4496.76] They can actually +[4496.76 --> 4497.76] profile you a little bit +[4497.76 --> 4498.54] and then send you things +[4498.54 --> 4499.24] that you will hopefully +[4499.24 --> 4499.82] actually like +[4499.82 --> 4500.68] which is pretty cool. +[4501.00 --> 4502.36] What are you looking for? +[4502.56 --> 4504.06] I'm looking for the numbers +[4504.06 --> 4504.60] because I think +[4504.60 --> 4505.82] I might have gotten them wrong +[4505.82 --> 4507.54] which is going to be terrible. +[4508.02 --> 4508.36] Okay +[4508.36 --> 4510.00] for $60 a month +[4510.00 --> 4512.24] you get $120 worth of clothing. +[4512.46 --> 4512.82] There we go. +[4512.86 --> 4513.12] Wow +[4513.12 --> 4513.90] that's terrible. +[4514.32 --> 4515.16] So basically +[4515.16 --> 4516.24] the thing that's going on +[4516.24 --> 4516.80] right now though +[4516.80 --> 4518.08] is for the 4th of July +[4518.08 --> 4519.80] you can use offer code +[4519.80 --> 4520.70] Linus4th +[4520.70 --> 4522.48] for $20 off your first package. +[4522.58 --> 4523.14] So you're getting +[4523.14 --> 4525.30] an MSRP of $120 worth of clothing +[4525.30 --> 4525.72] for $40. +[4526.08 --> 4527.68] You can cancel at any time. +[4528.06 --> 4529.80] It's actually super simple to do. +[4529.80 --> 4531.16] We had one person on the forum +[4531.16 --> 4532.04] that basically went +[4532.04 --> 4533.04] yeah you know what +[4533.04 --> 4533.86] the quality of the clothing +[4533.86 --> 4534.30] is nice +[4534.30 --> 4536.16] but it doesn't quite work for me. +[4536.26 --> 4537.26] I don't want to continue it +[4537.26 --> 4539.30] and boom +[4539.30 --> 4539.96] it was done +[4539.96 --> 4540.60] just like that. +[4540.66 --> 4541.26] So it was pretty easy +[4541.26 --> 4542.24] to get taken care of +[4542.24 --> 4543.92] and I think that is pretty much it. +[4544.00 --> 4545.04] Do we know where they ship to? +[4545.50 --> 4546.48] Do we know where they ship to? +[4546.58 --> 4546.80] Yeah. +[4546.80 --> 4548.60] People are asking that. +[4548.62 --> 4549.86] US and Canada for sure. +[4550.08 --> 4550.34] Yes. +[4550.42 --> 4552.46] Not 100% sure outside of that. +[4552.56 --> 4553.32] So you're going to want to go to +[4553.32 --> 4555.24] bit.ly slash Linus FFC +[4555.24 --> 4557.92] and use offer code Linus4th +[4557.92 --> 4559.00] 4TH +[4559.00 --> 4561.96] in order to redeem your extra amount off. +[4562.14 --> 4563.54] Normally for 5-4 Club +[4563.54 --> 4566.16] you guys can get $15 off your first purchase +[4566.16 --> 4568.12] so now it's just an extra $5 +[4568.12 --> 4569.66] just so they can give you guys +[4569.66 --> 4570.34] a little incentive +[4570.34 --> 4571.92] to try it out here +[4571.92 --> 4573.66] because if you hate clothing shopping +[4573.66 --> 4575.22] anywhere near as much as I do +[4575.22 --> 4576.66] then yeah +[4576.66 --> 4577.50] there's that. +[4577.64 --> 4579.90] I feel terrible about getting those numbers wrong. +[4580.28 --> 4582.80] I'm not necessarily that great with numbers +[4582.80 --> 4585.02] and then they went and they changed them around on me today +[4585.02 --> 4586.04] and I was like +[4586.04 --> 4586.68] okay +[4586.68 --> 4588.40] the 20 corresponds to +[4588.40 --> 4589.58] the discount +[4589.58 --> 4592.02] but then the amount that it normally is +[4592.02 --> 4593.10] corresponds to whatever +[4593.10 --> 4594.08] whatever the heck it is. +[4594.64 --> 4596.06] The cool thing about it is that +[4596.06 --> 4596.72] aside from +[4596.72 --> 4597.66] I mean if you're into +[4597.66 --> 4599.38] you know which celebrities wear it +[4599.38 --> 4601.76] the list is actually kind of ridiculous. +[4601.92 --> 4603.34] like if you go on their site +[4603.34 --> 4604.54] I get that though +[4604.54 --> 4606.34] I would probably want a mail order thing +[4606.34 --> 4607.60] if I was a celebrity person. +[4608.42 --> 4609.68] I guess that makes sense. +[4609.86 --> 4610.04] Yeah. +[4611.00 --> 4611.70] I don't know. +[4612.00 --> 4612.64] I was just like +[4612.64 --> 4613.86] Mark Wahlberg +[4613.86 --> 4615.66] is the sexiest hunk of man +[4615.66 --> 4616.58] on the face of the earth +[4616.58 --> 4617.64] and I was like +[4617.64 --> 4619.40] he wears 5'4 +[4619.40 --> 4619.96] so I was like +[4619.96 --> 4620.80] that's pretty cool. +[4620.94 --> 4621.62] Isn't he like +[4621.62 --> 4623.60] wasn't he convicted or something? +[4624.10 --> 4624.68] Mark Wahlberg? +[4624.82 --> 4625.16] Really? +[4625.80 --> 4626.12] Shut up. +[4626.12 --> 4627.54] I might be thinking the wrong person. +[4629.12 --> 4630.56] I don't think so. +[4632.90 --> 4633.98] You've got to be kidding me. +[4634.80 --> 4635.10] Huh. +[4636.10 --> 4636.50] Yeah. +[4636.62 --> 4637.28] He was like +[4637.28 --> 4639.12] yeah. +[4639.34 --> 4640.06] I don't know. +[4640.42 --> 4641.38] Well he could still be sexy +[4641.38 --> 4641.88] even if +[4641.88 --> 4644.26] even if he has a bit of a checkered past. +[4644.56 --> 4645.20] So newsflash +[4645.20 --> 4646.24] Linus is into bad boys. +[4647.20 --> 4647.54] Yeah. +[4649.22 --> 4650.30] I'm not ashamed of it. +[4651.48 --> 4652.02] All right. +[4652.04 --> 4653.06] So that's pretty much it. +[4653.12 --> 4653.86] 5'4 club +[4653.86 --> 4655.10] and let's move on +[4655.10 --> 4656.00] to our next topic shall we? +[4656.00 --> 4657.02] All right. +[4659.30 --> 4660.54] So next what we got. +[4660.78 --> 4662.30] We jumped all over the place. +[4662.38 --> 4663.32] New extreme editions +[4663.32 --> 4665.18] are rumored to be coming very soon. +[4665.32 --> 4666.44] I think calling this a rumor +[4666.44 --> 4667.14] at this point +[4667.14 --> 4668.00] is +[4668.00 --> 4669.46] It's been rumored +[4669.46 --> 4670.18] to be coming +[4670.18 --> 4672.28] at like a fairly specific date +[4672.28 --> 4673.24] for a long time. +[4673.40 --> 4674.50] Every rumor is like +[4674.50 --> 4674.80] yep +[4674.80 --> 4675.68] just don't forget +[4675.68 --> 4678.58] we thought it was +[4678.58 --> 4679.74] this time a while ago. +[4680.00 --> 4681.16] It's rumored +[4681.16 --> 4682.80] to be priced at +[4682.80 --> 4683.70] $1,000 +[4683.70 --> 4684.60] just like +[4684.60 --> 4685.10] Whoa +[4685.10 --> 4686.02] surprising +[4686.02 --> 4687.64] Every other extreme edition ever +[4687.64 --> 4689.30] but what's exciting +[4689.30 --> 4689.96] about the rumors +[4689.96 --> 4690.94] for Haswell E +[4690.94 --> 4691.98] so this is Intel's +[4691.98 --> 4693.22] upcoming enthusiast +[4693.22 --> 4694.12] slash workstation +[4694.12 --> 4694.98] grade processors +[4694.98 --> 4696.02] is that +[4696.02 --> 4697.72] the lower end chips +[4697.72 --> 4699.24] even the lowest end one +[4699.24 --> 4700.20] so the +[4700.20 --> 4702.44] 5820k +[4702.44 --> 4702.90] allegedly +[4702.90 --> 4703.96] 5820k +[4703.96 --> 4705.22] is going to +[4705.22 --> 4705.74] allegedly +[4705.74 --> 4706.38] rumoredly +[4706.38 --> 4707.66] be a 6 core +[4707.66 --> 4709.14] up until now +[4709.14 --> 4710.98] processors like +[4710.98 --> 4712.64] the 4820k +[4712.64 --> 4714.20] have just not made +[4714.20 --> 4715.20] a lot of sense to me +[4715.20 --> 4716.28] like I guess +[4716.28 --> 4717.36] if I only need +[4717.36 --> 4718.14] a quad core +[4718.14 --> 4718.82] There's a reason why +[4718.82 --> 4719.56] that one's in the thermal +[4719.56 --> 4719.80] thing +[4719.80 --> 4720.58] I specifically +[4720.58 --> 4722.14] only need a quad core +[4722.14 --> 4724.02] but I really need +[4724.02 --> 4725.84] 64 gigs of RAM +[4725.84 --> 4726.68] or more +[4726.68 --> 4728.84] unbuffered memory +[4728.84 --> 4729.86] 64 gigs of unbuffered memory +[4729.86 --> 4730.58] I'm sure someone can +[4730.58 --> 4731.42] find a use for that +[4731.42 --> 4731.88] like if I +[4731.88 --> 4733.32] but I don't need +[4733.32 --> 4733.84] a 6 core +[4733.84 --> 4734.80] that's the one +[4734.80 --> 4735.26] I don't understand +[4735.26 --> 4735.72] I'm going to buy +[4735.72 --> 4736.62] all that RAM +[4736.62 --> 4737.32] but I don't need +[4737.32 --> 4737.88] the 6 core +[4737.88 --> 4738.16] and like that +[4738.16 --> 4738.80] baller expensive +[4738.80 --> 4739.28] motherboard +[4739.28 --> 4741.12] and not spend +[4741.12 --> 4741.52] the like +[4741.52 --> 4742.04] little bit more +[4742.04 --> 4743.00] So those quad cores +[4743.00 --> 4743.92] on LGA 2011 +[4743.92 --> 4744.66] have always been +[4744.66 --> 4745.28] a bit of a +[4745.28 --> 4746.44] bit of a black sheep +[4746.44 --> 4746.84] to me +[4746.84 --> 4747.90] whereas now +[4747.90 --> 4748.64] we're going to get +[4748.64 --> 4749.28] an 8 core +[4749.28 --> 4749.90] extreme edition +[4749.90 --> 4750.92] this is the first time +[4750.92 --> 4752.06] Intel has differentiated +[4752.06 --> 4752.90] an extreme edition +[4752.90 --> 4753.62] based on the number +[4753.62 --> 4753.98] of cores +[4753.98 --> 4755.00] since the 980x +[4755.00 --> 4755.82] so we're going to get +[4755.82 --> 4756.36] an 8 core +[4756.36 --> 4757.02] extreme edition +[4757.02 --> 4758.00] and then we are +[4758.00 --> 4758.84] going to get +[4758.84 --> 4760.62] a 6 core +[4760.62 --> 4761.50] step down +[4761.50 --> 4762.80] and then a 6 core +[4762.80 --> 4763.66] hopefully +[4763.66 --> 4766.16] like 350 to +[4766.16 --> 4767.26] 400 dollar range +[4767.26 --> 4767.76] CPU +[4767.76 --> 4768.38] which would be +[4768.38 --> 4769.20] All of this is +[4769.20 --> 4770.76] really exciting +[4770.76 --> 4771.12] hopefully +[4771.12 --> 4771.44] maybe +[4771.44 --> 4773.02] possibly +[4773.02 --> 4774.86] I would love +[4774.86 --> 4775.42] being one of the +[4775.42 --> 4776.38] like rumor writers +[4776.38 --> 4777.52] for the sites +[4777.52 --> 4778.20] that kind of +[4778.20 --> 4778.98] spread rumors around +[4778.98 --> 4779.66] especially for +[4779.66 --> 4780.38] Intel stuff +[4780.38 --> 4781.78] price for the +[4781.78 --> 4782.42] extreme edition +[4782.42 --> 4783.88] 9.99 +[4783.88 --> 4786.02] crazy balls +[4786.02 --> 4786.34] right +[4786.34 --> 4786.64] yeah +[4786.64 --> 4787.22] the other ones +[4787.22 --> 4787.56] are a little +[4787.56 --> 4788.16] more difficult +[4788.16 --> 4788.62] yeah +[4788.62 --> 4789.24] because you have +[4789.24 --> 4789.64] to memorize +[4789.64 --> 4790.64] different numbers +[4790.64 --> 4792.94] but uh +[4792.94 --> 4793.98] oh the other thing +[4793.98 --> 4794.52] is that the +[4794.52 --> 4795.30] platform will use +[4795.30 --> 4796.10] DDR4 +[4796.10 --> 4796.82] so we could be +[4796.82 --> 4797.30] looking at +[4797.30 --> 4798.02] higher speeds +[4798.02 --> 4798.92] lower power consumption +[4798.92 --> 4799.62] higher density +[4799.62 --> 4800.58] cost +[4800.58 --> 4801.32] could be +[4801.32 --> 4801.84] looking at +[4801.84 --> 4802.02] yeah +[4802.02 --> 4803.04] but the cost +[4803.04 --> 4803.70] is expected +[4803.70 --> 4804.82] to be extremely +[4804.82 --> 4806.34] high for DDR4 +[4806.34 --> 4806.98] initially +[4806.98 --> 4807.74] early adopters +[4807.74 --> 4808.14] I'll be +[4808.14 --> 4808.52] I'll be +[4808.52 --> 4808.96] I mean +[4808.96 --> 4810.02] really the +[4810.02 --> 4810.64] extreme edition +[4810.64 --> 4811.42] might end up +[4811.42 --> 4811.84] being the only +[4811.84 --> 4812.44] one that actually +[4812.44 --> 4813.20] makes any sense +[4813.20 --> 4813.94] yep +[4813.94 --> 4814.68] because you're +[4814.68 --> 4815.56] gonna get a +[4815.56 --> 4815.86] quad +[4815.86 --> 4816.46] you're gonna get +[4816.46 --> 4817.02] a uh +[4817.02 --> 4817.66] an octa core +[4817.66 --> 4818.88] as opposed to +[4818.88 --> 4819.48] a 6 core +[4819.48 --> 4820.80] and you're gonna +[4820.80 --> 4821.26] have to pay a +[4821.26 --> 4821.94] premium for it +[4821.94 --> 4822.32] but you're gonna +[4822.32 --> 4823.06] get an octa core +[4823.06 --> 4823.50] and then you're +[4823.50 --> 4823.76] gonna have to pay +[4823.76 --> 4824.36] a premium for that +[4824.36 --> 4824.68] ram +[4824.68 --> 4825.34] but you're gonna +[4825.34 --> 4826.20] get an octa core +[4826.20 --> 4827.28] whereas buying +[4827.28 --> 4828.46] older LGA 2011 +[4828.46 --> 4829.04] Ivy Bridge +[4829.04 --> 4830.06] eCPUs +[4830.06 --> 4830.86] and DDR3 +[4830.86 --> 4831.72] is probably +[4831.72 --> 4832.08] gonna make +[4832.08 --> 4832.60] a lot more +[4832.60 --> 4832.86] sense +[4832.86 --> 4833.26] something like +[4833.26 --> 4834.42] a 4930k +[4834.42 --> 4835.04] where you get +[4835.04 --> 4835.58] a 6 core +[4835.58 --> 4836.44] and DDR3 +[4836.44 --> 4836.98] and saving money +[4836.98 --> 4837.70] on both of those +[4837.70 --> 4838.30] because the new +[4838.30 --> 4838.76] ones are out +[4838.76 --> 4839.16] because it'll +[4839.16 --> 4839.76] be DDR4 +[4839.76 --> 4840.10] which will +[4840.10 --> 4840.94] hopefully +[4840.94 --> 4841.72] drive the price +[4841.72 --> 4842.56] of DDR3 down +[4842.56 --> 4843.32] because damn +[4843.32 --> 4843.68] what's been +[4843.68 --> 4844.22] happening to that +[4844.22 --> 4844.52] lately +[4844.52 --> 4845.38] uh +[4845.38 --> 4846.36] your factory +[4846.36 --> 4846.86] had problems +[4846.86 --> 4847.56] a long time +[4847.56 --> 4847.84] ago +[4847.84 --> 4848.34] bros +[4848.34 --> 4849.52] bring that +[4849.52 --> 4849.96] price back +[4849.96 --> 4850.34] down +[4850.34 --> 4851.58] um +[4851.58 --> 4852.46] originally posted +[4852.46 --> 4852.94] on the forum +[4852.94 --> 4853.86] by Ewan +[4853.86 --> 4854.70] Ewan +[4854.70 --> 4855.26] Ewan +[4855.26 --> 4856.90] whatever +[4856.90 --> 4858.72] I give up +[4858.72 --> 4859.80] the division +[4859.80 --> 4860.82] might have +[4860.82 --> 4862.28] microtransactions +[4862.28 --> 4862.96] remember +[4862.96 --> 4863.56] remember that +[4863.56 --> 4864.24] talk we had +[4864.24 --> 4865.04] about Ubisoft +[4865.04 --> 4866.14] and how they +[4866.14 --> 4866.76] they didn't like +[4866.76 --> 4867.24] DRM +[4867.24 --> 4868.12] and they were like +[4868.12 --> 4868.50] yeah we're gonna +[4868.50 --> 4869.14] remove DRM +[4869.14 --> 4869.80] by not removing +[4869.80 --> 4870.30] DRM +[4870.30 --> 4871.78] this is their +[4871.78 --> 4872.24] solution +[4872.24 --> 4874.80] more microtransactions +[4874.80 --> 4875.98] because hopefully +[4875.98 --> 4876.62] you can't pirate +[4876.62 --> 4877.06] those +[4877.06 --> 4879.32] you know what +[4879.32 --> 4880.44] I actually +[4880.44 --> 4880.90] I mean +[4880.90 --> 4881.58] this was moved +[4881.58 --> 4882.38] into uh +[4882.38 --> 4883.30] rapid fire topics +[4883.30 --> 4884.08] but I thought +[4884.08 --> 4884.74] it was actually +[4884.74 --> 4885.64] a pretty interesting +[4885.64 --> 4886.10] we were more +[4886.10 --> 4886.46] just running +[4886.46 --> 4887.00] out of time +[4887.00 --> 4888.04] to be completely +[4888.04 --> 4888.36] honest +[4888.36 --> 4889.22] oh okay +[4889.22 --> 4889.92] that one was +[4889.92 --> 4890.34] a fairly +[4890.34 --> 4890.76] yeah +[4890.76 --> 4891.86] where's that +[4891.86 --> 4892.96] bloody hell +[4892.96 --> 4893.38] what are you +[4893.38 --> 4893.64] looking for +[4893.64 --> 4893.92] I'm looking +[4893.92 --> 4894.48] for that EA +[4894.48 --> 4894.92] article +[4894.92 --> 4896.56] where they were +[4896.56 --> 4897.82] basically justifying +[4897.82 --> 4898.84] microtransactions +[4898.84 --> 4899.70] saying that +[4899.70 --> 4900.18] uh +[4900.18 --> 4901.00] core gamers +[4901.00 --> 4901.48] uncomfortable +[4901.48 --> 4901.94] with change +[4901.94 --> 4902.72] yeah there it is +[4902.72 --> 4902.94] yeah +[4902.94 --> 4903.70] Peter Moore +[4903.70 --> 4904.32] from EA +[4904.32 --> 4905.00] comes out +[4905.00 --> 4905.32] saying +[4905.32 --> 4906.04] core gamers +[4906.04 --> 4906.70] are uncomfortable +[4906.70 --> 4907.46] with change +[4907.46 --> 4908.30] and that's +[4908.30 --> 4908.94] basically the +[4908.94 --> 4909.72] reason that +[4909.72 --> 4910.62] people are +[4910.62 --> 4911.64] are upset +[4911.64 --> 4913.10] about the changing +[4913.10 --> 4913.62] landscape +[4913.62 --> 4914.70] which would be +[4914.70 --> 4915.84] mobile gaming +[4915.84 --> 4917.22] microtransactions +[4917.22 --> 4918.54] and like +[4918.54 --> 4919.62] I see +[4919.62 --> 4921.06] I see why +[4921.06 --> 4921.84] people don't like it +[4921.84 --> 4922.70] and he acknowledges +[4922.70 --> 4923.82] why people don't like it +[4923.82 --> 4924.52] and says you know what +[4924.52 --> 4925.42] it's totally fair +[4925.42 --> 4926.56] to not like it +[4926.56 --> 4927.86] but he just kind of says +[4927.86 --> 4928.36] well look +[4928.36 --> 4929.48] I think that +[4929.48 --> 4930.98] what we have to understand +[4930.98 --> 4932.12] is that +[4932.12 --> 4933.30] that's the way +[4933.30 --> 4934.32] the industry is going +[4934.32 --> 4936.12] and all you have to +[4936.12 --> 4936.76] really do +[4936.76 --> 4938.16] is look at +[4938.16 --> 4939.08] companies that are +[4939.08 --> 4940.04] just trying to +[4940.04 --> 4940.96] maintain that +[4940.96 --> 4941.66] traditional +[4941.66 --> 4943.52] $60 title +[4943.52 --> 4945.14] mindset +[4945.14 --> 4946.00] we're going to +[4946.00 --> 4947.32] sell you a $60 title +[4947.32 --> 4948.52] and then everything else +[4948.52 --> 4949.26] is just going to +[4949.26 --> 4949.76] kind of +[4949.76 --> 4950.48] you know +[4950.48 --> 4950.90] we're going to +[4950.90 --> 4952.08] do it the old way +[4952.08 --> 4953.34] and gamers +[4953.34 --> 4954.42] aren't necessarily +[4954.42 --> 4955.46] satisfied when that +[4955.46 --> 4955.86] happens +[4955.86 --> 4956.44] I mean look at +[4956.44 --> 4956.84] I don't know if that's +[4956.84 --> 4957.52] necessarily the truth +[4957.52 --> 4958.40] because it seems like +[4958.40 --> 4959.16] what gamers are very +[4959.16 --> 4960.02] unsatisfied about +[4960.02 --> 4960.90] is being hit with +[4960.90 --> 4962.06] both at the same time +[4962.06 --> 4963.84] that's a good point +[4963.84 --> 4964.36] because like +[4964.36 --> 4964.82] look at +[4964.82 --> 4965.60] CD Projekt Red +[4965.60 --> 4967.02] I don't see anyone +[4967.02 --> 4968.20] complaining about Witcher +[4968.20 --> 4969.02] I don't see Witcher +[4969.02 --> 4970.06] having any problems +[4970.06 --> 4971.12] that's true +[4971.12 --> 4971.88] that's a good point +[4971.88 --> 4972.24] and they're like +[4972.24 --> 4973.08] the only ones +[4973.08 --> 4973.68] that are actually +[4973.68 --> 4975.22] doing just one attack +[4975.22 --> 4976.36] everyone else is like +[4976.36 --> 4977.60] $60 title +[4977.60 --> 4978.74] here's a butt ton +[4978.74 --> 4979.18] of DLC +[4979.18 --> 4980.48] also by the way +[4980.48 --> 4981.24] microtransactions +[4981.24 --> 4981.74] on the side +[4981.74 --> 4982.42] it's not fair to say +[4982.42 --> 4983.12] everyone else +[4983.12 --> 4983.88] I mean you know +[4983.88 --> 4984.72] there are MMOs +[4984.72 --> 4985.74] that just have +[4985.74 --> 4986.24] a subscription +[4986.24 --> 4987.40] there are +[4987.40 --> 4987.96] which one +[4987.96 --> 4988.86] actually a lot of them +[4988.86 --> 4989.68] have microtransactions +[4989.68 --> 4990.40] now okay forget it +[4990.40 --> 4991.62] Eve has microtransactions +[4991.62 --> 4993.10] WoW has a microtransaction +[4993.10 --> 4993.86] where you can make +[4993.86 --> 4994.32] your character +[4994.32 --> 4994.96] max level +[4994.96 --> 4997.48] like I actually +[4997.48 --> 4999.08] that's quite serious +[4999.08 --> 4999.68] when I said which one +[4999.68 --> 5000.54] the only one I can +[5000.54 --> 5001.68] the issue +[5001.68 --> 5003.02] with the traditional way +[5003.02 --> 5004.34] with no microtransactions +[5004.34 --> 5005.36] so with just paying +[5005.36 --> 5006.22] for it up front +[5006.22 --> 5007.34] is that +[5007.34 --> 5008.32] gamers are going to be +[5008.32 --> 5009.58] ultimately unsatisfied +[5009.58 --> 5010.44] when that company +[5010.44 --> 5011.64] can't afford to support +[5011.64 --> 5012.30] the multiplayer +[5012.30 --> 5013.52] anymore for example +[5013.52 --> 5014.72] and the servers +[5014.72 --> 5015.64] end up getting shut down +[5015.64 --> 5016.64] now the obvious +[5016.64 --> 5017.46] solution to this +[5017.46 --> 5018.12] is they should let us +[5018.12 --> 5018.76] run our own servers +[5018.76 --> 5019.62] in the first place +[5019.62 --> 5020.44] but +[5020.44 --> 5023.52] I don't know +[5023.52 --> 5024.46] maybe if they just +[5024.46 --> 5026.08] give something back +[5026.08 --> 5029.26] my favorite thing +[5029.26 --> 5030.20] posted on this thread +[5030.20 --> 5031.16] okay this topic +[5031.16 --> 5032.28] is just making me sad +[5032.28 --> 5032.96] my favorite thing +[5032.96 --> 5033.72] posted on this thread +[5033.72 --> 5034.30] was that +[5034.30 --> 5036.44] what's the principle +[5036.44 --> 5037.22] in the Simpsons +[5037.22 --> 5038.12] Skinner +[5038.12 --> 5039.60] yeah yeah yeah yeah +[5039.60 --> 5040.98] am I out of touch +[5040.98 --> 5041.56] no +[5041.56 --> 5042.74] it's the people +[5042.74 --> 5043.28] that are wrong +[5043.28 --> 5044.06] it's the children +[5044.06 --> 5044.56] that are wrong +[5044.56 --> 5044.78] it's the children +[5044.78 --> 5045.40] that are wrong +[5045.40 --> 5046.62] it's like +[5046.62 --> 5047.54] actually no +[5047.54 --> 5048.82] you're just wrong +[5048.82 --> 5049.92] attacking people +[5049.92 --> 5051.12] on every possible front +[5051.12 --> 5051.54] DLC +[5051.54 --> 5052.34] full price game +[5052.34 --> 5053.14] microtransactions +[5053.14 --> 5054.30] and possibly even +[5054.30 --> 5054.78] a subscription +[5054.78 --> 5055.80] is not the way +[5055.80 --> 5056.34] to make a happy +[5056.34 --> 5056.70] customer +[5056.70 --> 5057.82] okay he does +[5057.82 --> 5058.76] make a good point +[5058.76 --> 5060.10] about customers +[5060.10 --> 5061.76] being willing to +[5061.76 --> 5063.06] give money in this +[5063.06 --> 5064.12] way and therefore +[5064.12 --> 5064.88] as a business +[5064.88 --> 5065.44] if you want to +[5065.44 --> 5066.74] survive you have +[5066.74 --> 5067.62] to leverage that +[5067.62 --> 5068.48] that also doesn't +[5068.48 --> 5068.94] need to be all +[5068.94 --> 5069.36] your games +[5069.36 --> 5070.30] and that's true +[5070.30 --> 5070.90] it doesn't need +[5070.90 --> 5071.30] to be all your +[5071.30 --> 5072.64] games but you +[5072.64 --> 5073.36] have to look at +[5073.36 --> 5074.00] the success of +[5074.00 --> 5074.50] something like +[5074.50 --> 5075.50] Candy Crush Saga +[5075.50 --> 5077.14] and go if +[5077.14 --> 5077.76] Linus Media +[5077.76 --> 5078.32] but that's one thing +[5078.32 --> 5078.98] like I don't see +[5078.98 --> 5079.76] anyone complaining +[5079.76 --> 5080.60] that mobile games +[5080.60 --> 5081.62] exist I've never +[5081.62 --> 5082.20] heard of that +[5082.20 --> 5082.92] complaint +[5082.92 --> 5084.30] I would complain +[5084.30 --> 5085.22] about Candy Crush +[5085.22 --> 5086.28] Saga's implementation +[5086.28 --> 5087.34] of microtransactions +[5087.34 --> 5088.26] no I mean +[5088.26 --> 5089.00] mobile games +[5089.00 --> 5089.90] in general +[5089.90 --> 5090.44] oh yeah I'm not +[5090.44 --> 5090.90] complaining that +[5090.90 --> 5091.60] they exist +[5091.60 --> 5092.38] I'm just +[5092.38 --> 5093.28] it's more of an +[5093.28 --> 5093.90] like his +[5093.90 --> 5095.06] quotes here +[5095.06 --> 5095.34] are actually +[5095.34 --> 5095.78] pretty good +[5095.78 --> 5096.66] it's more of an +[5096.66 --> 5097.34] observation +[5097.34 --> 5098.62] that this is +[5098.62 --> 5099.34] really successful +[5099.34 --> 5100.82] and as much +[5100.82 --> 5101.58] as that +[5101.58 --> 5102.32] old +[5102.32 --> 5102.98] you know +[5102.98 --> 5103.66] that old +[5103.66 --> 5104.30] guard's +[5104.30 --> 5105.02] core audience +[5105.02 --> 5105.64] of the more +[5105.64 --> 5106.40] hardcore gamers +[5106.40 --> 5107.34] doesn't like it +[5107.34 --> 5108.80] new gamers +[5108.80 --> 5110.92] are being brought +[5110.92 --> 5111.72] in onto the +[5111.72 --> 5112.46] gaming scene +[5112.46 --> 5113.76] used to that +[5113.76 --> 5114.50] but you can do +[5114.50 --> 5115.34] it in good ways +[5115.34 --> 5115.70] I don't know +[5115.70 --> 5116.18] that many people +[5116.18 --> 5116.74] that complain +[5116.74 --> 5117.34] about the +[5117.34 --> 5118.16] microtransactions +[5118.16 --> 5118.82] in League of Legends +[5118.82 --> 5120.16] I never have +[5120.16 --> 5121.44] I've found them +[5121.44 --> 5122.24] to be completely fine +[5122.24 --> 5122.92] and I personally +[5122.92 --> 5123.50] know someone who +[5123.50 --> 5124.14] spent like two +[5124.14 --> 5125.00] grand on League of Legends +[5125.00 --> 5125.88] and Team Fortress 2 +[5125.88 --> 5126.42] is another great +[5126.42 --> 5126.76] example +[5126.76 --> 5127.18] and Team Fortress 2 +[5127.18 --> 5128.04] fine +[5128.04 --> 5129.12] totally fine +[5129.12 --> 5129.96] Counter-Strike +[5129.96 --> 5131.18] I've spent an okay +[5131.18 --> 5131.70] amount of money +[5131.70 --> 5132.36] on Counter-Strike +[5132.36 --> 5133.46] just opening freaking +[5133.46 --> 5134.16] cases because I'm +[5134.16 --> 5134.62] an idiot +[5134.62 --> 5136.70] it's not like +[5136.70 --> 5137.62] okay amount of money +[5137.62 --> 5138.48] is not that much +[5138.48 --> 5139.36] I haven't spent that much +[5139.36 --> 5140.36] usually it's +[5140.36 --> 5141.30] I'll spend what I get +[5141.30 --> 5142.62] off of selling the cards +[5142.62 --> 5143.34] okay +[5143.34 --> 5144.58] you know how you get +[5144.58 --> 5144.90] the cards +[5144.90 --> 5145.64] you can sell the cards +[5145.64 --> 5145.86] no +[5145.86 --> 5147.10] I have never +[5147.10 --> 5148.58] I actually believe +[5148.58 --> 5150.40] I own Team Fortress 2 +[5150.40 --> 5150.76] items +[5150.76 --> 5151.76] I have never once +[5151.76 --> 5152.62] looked at them +[5152.62 --> 5154.24] I haven't for Team Fortress +[5154.24 --> 5155.24] well I've looked at them +[5155.24 --> 5155.76] I'm just saying +[5155.76 --> 5156.28] I have +[5156.28 --> 5158.24] the one time +[5158.24 --> 5158.64] I have +[5158.64 --> 5158.92] while you play +[5158.92 --> 5160.20] a lot of games now +[5160.20 --> 5160.58] on Steam +[5160.58 --> 5161.14] you gain these +[5161.14 --> 5162.10] trading card things +[5162.10 --> 5163.00] and you can sell them +[5163.00 --> 5164.28] for Steam bucks +[5164.28 --> 5165.32] and you can spend +[5165.32 --> 5166.16] that Steam money +[5166.16 --> 5167.24] buying a key +[5167.24 --> 5168.26] which will open a box +[5168.26 --> 5168.92] which you can then +[5168.92 --> 5170.16] probably sell the item from +[5170.16 --> 5171.00] because it's probably +[5171.00 --> 5171.80] not even good +[5171.80 --> 5174.42] it has been +[5174.42 --> 5175.08] proven +[5175.08 --> 5175.74] that it is +[5175.74 --> 5176.82] much more +[5176.82 --> 5177.48] cost effective +[5177.48 --> 5178.58] to just buy the item +[5178.58 --> 5179.42] than to buy the key +[5179.42 --> 5180.08] to open the box +[5180.08 --> 5181.26] because the chance +[5181.26 --> 5181.66] of something +[5181.66 --> 5182.64] coming out of that box +[5182.64 --> 5183.34] that is worth anything +[5183.34 --> 5184.44] is so low +[5184.44 --> 5188.20] like insanely low +[5188.20 --> 5188.96] people have even +[5188.96 --> 5189.54] made websites +[5189.54 --> 5190.08] that are +[5190.08 --> 5190.84] that are dedicated +[5190.84 --> 5191.46] to like +[5191.46 --> 5192.68] capturing the experience +[5192.68 --> 5193.46] of opening the box +[5193.46 --> 5194.42] so you get infinite keys +[5194.42 --> 5194.90] and a box +[5194.90 --> 5195.40] and it's a random +[5195.40 --> 5196.02] number generator +[5196.02 --> 5196.56] that'll be like +[5196.56 --> 5197.32] you got this item +[5197.32 --> 5198.06] so it can prove +[5198.06 --> 5198.94] how much you've lost +[5198.94 --> 5200.46] like yeah +[5200.46 --> 5201.58] it's not worth it +[5201.58 --> 5202.20] even if you wanted +[5202.20 --> 5203.08] to buy like a $60 +[5203.08 --> 5204.06] rifle skin +[5204.06 --> 5205.50] it's better to just +[5205.50 --> 5206.02] buy it +[5206.02 --> 5207.02] than open that many +[5207.02 --> 5207.42] boxes +[5207.42 --> 5209.56] so basically +[5209.56 --> 5210.62] it's Pokemon cards +[5210.62 --> 5211.34] all over again +[5211.34 --> 5211.72] yeah +[5211.72 --> 5212.50] okay +[5212.50 --> 5214.06] don't buy the booster +[5214.06 --> 5214.40] packs +[5214.40 --> 5215.08] just buy the damn +[5215.08 --> 5215.42] card +[5215.42 --> 5216.26] but then actually +[5216.26 --> 5217.12] just don't buy either +[5217.12 --> 5219.36] and then there you go +[5219.36 --> 5221.08] the best part +[5221.08 --> 5221.64] the coolest +[5221.64 --> 5221.94] sorry +[5221.94 --> 5222.92] the coolest part +[5222.92 --> 5223.20] I've seen +[5223.20 --> 5223.76] is when me and my +[5223.76 --> 5224.40] friends will be playing +[5224.40 --> 5225.16] and someone will +[5225.16 --> 5225.78] accidentally take +[5225.78 --> 5226.28] one of the skins +[5226.28 --> 5226.86] off of one of their +[5226.86 --> 5227.16] rifles +[5227.16 --> 5227.60] and they're like +[5227.60 --> 5228.60] whoa it looks cool +[5228.60 --> 5232.12] it's like blackout +[5232.12 --> 5233.94] because it's all black +[5233.94 --> 5238.54] everyone has so many skins +[5238.54 --> 5239.68] that once the skins +[5239.68 --> 5240.22] come off +[5240.22 --> 5240.88] and you just see +[5240.88 --> 5241.84] the blacked out gun +[5241.84 --> 5242.42] it actually looks +[5242.42 --> 5242.94] pretty cool +[5242.94 --> 5244.08] I'm like +[5244.08 --> 5244.62] wow +[5244.62 --> 5246.24] you're giving me +[5246.24 --> 5246.84] such a headache +[5246.84 --> 5247.56] right now +[5247.56 --> 5250.72] it doesn't help +[5250.72 --> 5251.18] that it's like +[5251.18 --> 5251.92] insanely hot +[5251.92 --> 5252.38] in this room +[5252.38 --> 5253.34] alright +[5253.34 --> 5254.30] you wanted to move on +[5254.30 --> 5254.88] I think this has been +[5254.88 --> 5255.74] our worst show +[5255.74 --> 5256.54] in a long time +[5256.54 --> 5257.48] and yet there are +[5257.48 --> 5258.58] 4,800 people +[5258.58 --> 5259.14] watching it +[5259.14 --> 5259.50] I don't think it's been +[5259.50 --> 5260.24] the worst show +[5260.24 --> 5261.08] you're just sad +[5261.08 --> 5261.92] that doesn't mean +[5261.92 --> 5263.22] it's the worst show +[5263.22 --> 5266.00] I guess if they just +[5266.00 --> 5266.68] want to watch me +[5266.68 --> 5267.24] be sad +[5267.24 --> 5267.66] and angry +[5267.66 --> 5269.64] and your shirt +[5269.64 --> 5270.16] came off +[5270.16 --> 5271.02] and my shirt +[5271.02 --> 5271.60] did come off +[5271.60 --> 5275.10] my shirt came off +[5275.10 --> 5276.94] during probably the worst +[5276.94 --> 5277.96] sponsor integration +[5277.96 --> 5279.26] that I've ever done +[5279.26 --> 5280.18] it's like +[5280.18 --> 5281.74] you spent the whole time +[5281.74 --> 5282.54] looking for the +[5282.54 --> 5283.44] okay guys +[5283.44 --> 5283.94] here +[5283.94 --> 5285.14] I don't do this often +[5285.14 --> 5286.42] but please +[5286.42 --> 5287.96] if you want +[5287.96 --> 5289.32] a subscription clothing +[5289.32 --> 5289.92] service +[5289.92 --> 5291.28] please go check out +[5291.28 --> 5291.98] 5-4 club +[5291.98 --> 5292.68] because otherwise +[5292.68 --> 5293.88] they are going to drop +[5293.88 --> 5294.96] me so hard +[5294.96 --> 5295.92] because that was +[5295.92 --> 5296.76] terrible +[5296.76 --> 5299.50] I said some numbers +[5299.50 --> 5299.96] that are wrong +[5299.96 --> 5300.96] so I'm going to buy time +[5300.96 --> 5301.70] and look through emails +[5301.70 --> 5303.76] and eventually +[5303.76 --> 5304.62] I'll find it +[5304.62 --> 5305.48] and I couldn't find +[5305.48 --> 5306.02] the email +[5306.02 --> 5308.04] I'm not going to send them +[5308.04 --> 5309.04] this part of the video +[5309.04 --> 5310.56] so they're just going to +[5310.56 --> 5311.84] have to be amazed +[5311.84 --> 5312.60] at like +[5312.60 --> 5313.54] how many people +[5313.54 --> 5314.66] signed up for a trial +[5314.66 --> 5315.28] of 5-4 club +[5315.28 --> 5316.68] it really is a good deal +[5316.68 --> 5317.98] with the $20 off deal +[5317.98 --> 5318.46] right now +[5318.46 --> 5320.52] so check it out +[5320.52 --> 5321.10] okay +[5321.10 --> 5322.88] it's $120 +[5322.88 --> 5324.46] MSRP worth of clothing +[5324.46 --> 5325.70] for $40 +[5325.70 --> 5326.76] and if you sign up +[5326.76 --> 5327.44] for $120 +[5327.44 --> 5327.98] MSRP +[5327.98 --> 5328.36] because you get +[5328.36 --> 5329.12] the $20 off +[5329.12 --> 5329.70] so it's $40 +[5329.70 --> 5330.88] so it's $40 +[5330.88 --> 5331.92] you should +[5331.92 --> 5332.68] just try it +[5332.68 --> 5333.34] for one month +[5333.34 --> 5333.94] because otherwise +[5333.94 --> 5335.10] I'm going to look terrible +[5335.10 --> 5336.28] whereas if like +[5336.28 --> 5337.08] I do the worst +[5337.08 --> 5338.02] integration ever +[5338.02 --> 5338.92] and the results +[5338.92 --> 5339.52] are amazing +[5339.52 --> 5340.52] they're going to be like +[5340.52 --> 5341.10] wow +[5341.10 --> 5342.14] we should probably +[5342.14 --> 5342.76] do more of those +[5342.76 --> 5342.98] yeah +[5342.98 --> 5343.32] we should +[5343.32 --> 5343.84] we should like +[5343.84 --> 5345.12] we should have them +[5345.12 --> 5345.68] screw it up +[5345.68 --> 5346.20] all the time +[5346.20 --> 5347.98] we'll purposely +[5347.98 --> 5348.62] give them the wrong +[5348.62 --> 5349.28] numbers now +[5349.28 --> 5349.92] it won't matter +[5349.92 --> 5350.34] you probably won't +[5350.34 --> 5350.64] remember +[5350.64 --> 5351.76] it's okay +[5351.76 --> 5353.54] oh I'm just a bad +[5353.54 --> 5354.16] person I guess +[5354.16 --> 5355.52] okay so this is posted +[5355.52 --> 5355.96] on the forum +[5355.96 --> 5357.32] by Symbolizer21 +[5357.32 --> 5358.48] and the original +[5358.48 --> 5359.10] article is from +[5359.10 --> 5359.94] geek.com +[5359.94 --> 5360.30] it's going to be +[5360.30 --> 5361.34] approximately $70 +[5361.34 --> 5363.38] and as much as +[5363.38 --> 5364.10] this is like +[5364.10 --> 5365.02] kind of cool +[5365.02 --> 5367.08] I don't think +[5367.08 --> 5368.00] it's necessarily +[5368.00 --> 5368.80] very smart +[5368.80 --> 5369.60] this is like +[5369.60 --> 5371.08] it's like +[5371.08 --> 5372.68] a cooler +[5372.68 --> 5374.08] it's got 62 feet +[5374.08 --> 5374.68] of heat pipes +[5374.68 --> 5375.30] in it apparently +[5375.30 --> 5376.46] which is just +[5376.46 --> 5377.52] expensive +[5377.52 --> 5378.56] for no reason +[5378.56 --> 5379.74] like +[5379.74 --> 5381.02] heat pipes +[5381.02 --> 5381.88] are good +[5381.88 --> 5382.74] for carrying +[5382.74 --> 5383.60] heat somewhere +[5383.60 --> 5384.78] they're actually +[5384.78 --> 5385.72] not very good +[5385.72 --> 5386.40] for dissipating +[5386.40 --> 5387.08] it to the air +[5387.08 --> 5389.22] a cylinder +[5389.22 --> 5390.16] is actually +[5390.16 --> 5391.10] very efficient +[5391.10 --> 5392.26] from an internal +[5392.26 --> 5393.38] volume to +[5393.38 --> 5394.24] external surface +[5394.24 --> 5395.18] area perspective +[5395.18 --> 5396.22] not because it +[5396.22 --> 5396.74] has a lot of +[5396.74 --> 5397.40] surface area +[5397.40 --> 5398.10] and very little +[5398.10 --> 5398.62] internal volume +[5398.62 --> 5398.94] it's the other +[5398.94 --> 5399.32] way around +[5399.32 --> 5401.30] so it has +[5401.30 --> 5401.76] very little +[5401.76 --> 5402.48] surface area +[5402.48 --> 5403.12] but it has +[5403.12 --> 5403.40] a lot of +[5403.40 --> 5403.98] heat pipes +[5403.98 --> 5404.76] and it's just +[5404.76 --> 5405.08] like +[5405.08 --> 5405.84] okay +[5405.84 --> 5406.80] so the company +[5406.80 --> 5407.44] recommends it +[5407.44 --> 5408.16] for Core i3s +[5408.16 --> 5408.92] and Core i5s +[5408.92 --> 5409.56] only but not +[5409.56 --> 5410.48] Core i7s +[5410.48 --> 5411.38] and the thing +[5411.38 --> 5411.86] that people +[5411.86 --> 5412.90] need to remember +[5412.90 --> 5414.08] about passive +[5414.08 --> 5414.62] coolers +[5414.62 --> 5415.38] is that they're +[5415.38 --> 5415.96] just basically +[5415.96 --> 5417.00] all a bad idea +[5417.00 --> 5418.82] because a passive +[5418.82 --> 5419.28] cooler +[5419.28 --> 5420.88] you would only +[5420.88 --> 5422.28] use if you want +[5422.28 --> 5423.02] to have like +[5423.02 --> 5423.58] an extremely +[5423.58 --> 5424.44] silent pc +[5424.44 --> 5425.84] and if you have +[5425.84 --> 5426.26] an extremely +[5426.26 --> 5427.10] silent pc +[5427.10 --> 5429.02] then you probably +[5429.02 --> 5429.66] have a mostly +[5429.66 --> 5430.52] passive rest +[5430.52 --> 5431.08] of your system +[5431.08 --> 5431.96] and passive +[5431.96 --> 5433.12] coolers are not +[5433.12 --> 5433.98] designed to work +[5433.98 --> 5435.18] correctly without +[5435.18 --> 5436.08] system cooling +[5436.08 --> 5436.58] around them +[5436.58 --> 5437.98] so it's like +[5437.98 --> 5439.16] a catch-22 +[5439.16 --> 5440.60] you can't win +[5440.60 --> 5441.42] so just focus +[5441.42 --> 5441.92] on getting +[5441.92 --> 5443.80] very quiet +[5443.80 --> 5444.42] things +[5444.42 --> 5444.80] everywhere +[5444.80 --> 5446.40] extremely quiet +[5446.40 --> 5446.88] things +[5446.88 --> 5447.76] very low +[5447.76 --> 5448.98] rpm spinning +[5448.98 --> 5449.78] like noctua +[5449.78 --> 5450.10] and noise +[5450.10 --> 5450.70] blocker fans +[5450.70 --> 5451.12] yeah +[5451.12 --> 5451.88] by all the +[5451.88 --> 5452.22] noctua +[5452.22 --> 5454.68] i refuse to +[5454.68 --> 5455.32] acknowledge noise +[5455.32 --> 5455.86] blocker because +[5455.86 --> 5456.18] they're not +[5456.18 --> 5456.54] noctua +[5456.54 --> 5458.26] no but seriously +[5458.26 --> 5458.82] noise blocker +[5458.82 --> 5459.20] stuff's really +[5459.20 --> 5459.40] good +[5459.40 --> 5461.02] i'm like +[5461.02 --> 5461.66] what +[5461.66 --> 5462.60] i just don't +[5462.60 --> 5463.56] fanboy over it +[5463.56 --> 5464.24] because you've +[5464.24 --> 5464.84] never even tried +[5464.84 --> 5465.08] them +[5465.08 --> 5466.02] i actually haven't +[5466.02 --> 5466.72] they've never +[5466.72 --> 5467.54] contacted me +[5467.54 --> 5468.10] i've never +[5468.10 --> 5468.92] contacted them +[5468.92 --> 5469.38] it's not +[5469.38 --> 5469.78] it's not +[5469.78 --> 5470.24] because we +[5470.24 --> 5470.60] hate each +[5470.60 --> 5470.80] other +[5470.80 --> 5471.26] no i know +[5471.26 --> 5471.54] i know +[5471.54 --> 5471.84] i don't +[5471.84 --> 5472.28] understand +[5472.28 --> 5472.96] just is what +[5472.96 --> 5473.64] it is +[5473.64 --> 5474.88] um +[5474.88 --> 5475.26] i don't know +[5475.26 --> 5475.78] it's hard to +[5475.78 --> 5476.28] beat the new +[5476.28 --> 5477.16] industrial looking +[5477.16 --> 5478.00] noctua fans +[5478.00 --> 5478.54] they look kind +[5478.54 --> 5479.00] of amazing +[5479.00 --> 5479.60] yeah they do +[5479.60 --> 5479.98] look kind of +[5479.98 --> 5480.80] amazing but +[5480.80 --> 5481.66] i fixed that +[5481.66 --> 5482.04] problem +[5482.04 --> 5482.42] might be able to +[5482.42 --> 5482.86] beat it at some +[5482.86 --> 5483.68] point um +[5483.68 --> 5484.42] speaking of beating +[5484.42 --> 5485.32] it i think that's +[5485.32 --> 5485.96] pretty much it +[5485.96 --> 5486.80] we're

busy right now +[5634.62 --> 5635.36] so there you go +[5635.36 --> 5636.50] people are asking +[5636.50 --> 5637.86] is 5,000 viewers a lot +[5637.86 --> 5639.60] i think so +[5639.60 --> 5640.38] i think so +[5640.38 --> 5642.08] if 5,000 people listen to me +[5642.08 --> 5642.88] saying something +[5642.88 --> 5644.16] how twitch works +[5644.16 --> 5644.90] we're able to get a +[5644.90 --> 5646.00] ton of viewers +[5646.00 --> 5646.78] usually need to go +[5646.78 --> 5647.40] for quite a while +[5647.40 --> 5648.20] because it takes so long +[5648.20 --> 5649.08] for the subscription email +[5649.08 --> 5649.56] to go out +[5649.56 --> 5650.82] so because we have +[5650.82 --> 5652.22] a scheduled show +[5652.22 --> 5653.50] that's very short +[5653.50 --> 5655.40] it doesn't offer itself +[5655.40 --> 5655.64] very long +[5655.64 --> 5656.30] and you know what's funny +[5656.30 --> 5657.48] is i didn't even tweet +[5657.48 --> 5658.40] in the middle of the show +[5658.40 --> 5658.92] to be like +[5658.92 --> 5660.24] hey please come watch +[5660.24 --> 5662.08] that usually helps a lot +[5662.08 --> 5662.72] because the email +[5662.72 --> 5663.54] doesn't freaking go out +[5663.54 --> 5664.36] we're live right now +[5664.36 --> 5665.28] i got people on my +[5665.28 --> 5666.42] 24 hour stream +[5666.42 --> 5668.16] that were messaging me +[5668.16 --> 5669.20]

today. +[3.34 --> 6.28] We decided to do, well, not decided. +[6.96 --> 11.12] We had to fulfill one of the stretch goal targets for our new office campaign. +[11.56 --> 13.36] So Linus is... +[13.36 --> 14.30] I'm Mother Teresa. +[14.52 --> 18.64] We promised we would, basically we promised we would do the WAN show dressed up as ladies. +[18.78 --> 20.92] So we each chose a lady to dress up as. +[20.96 --> 22.50] I went with Mother Teresa. +[22.88 --> 24.78] So I got my habit here. +[25.20 --> 25.46] Yep. +[25.80 --> 28.12] Feeling pretty good about myself right now. +[28.12 --> 30.36] And I went as Kaylee from Firefly. +[30.48 --> 34.38] So this is supposed to be like her overalls. +[34.48 --> 35.50] It's actually a sweater. +[35.62 --> 36.86] But it's supposed to be her overalls. +[36.94 --> 40.60] And then I have my like flowered shirt and not my normal hair. +[41.56 --> 42.32] And there's a hood on it. +[42.32 --> 44.50] There's a hood, which I don't think there normally is. +[44.60 --> 45.64] But whatever, don't worry about it. +[46.22 --> 47.26] They cut the sleeves off. +[47.42 --> 47.66] That's it. +[47.66 --> 49.74] The worst costume ever. +[49.80 --> 51.10] You know what the weirdest thing is right now? +[51.54 --> 51.98] Lipstick. +[52.22 --> 52.86] Holy crap. +[53.34 --> 54.66] Yeah, it's kind of awful, isn't it? +[54.66 --> 55.58] It's horrible. +[55.58 --> 59.10] Well, Nick got lip gloss for me because I'm a little more modest. +[60.94 --> 63.60] So I don't just go all out with the lipstick. +[63.70 --> 65.16] She probably didn't put anything on. +[65.34 --> 68.96] So guys, here's the crowdfunding campaign page. +[69.32 --> 73.04] So I think the current goal we're working on is for... +[73.04 --> 73.16] Oh. +[76.10 --> 77.48] You're such a noob. +[78.46 --> 78.78] Okay. +[79.04 --> 79.58] Well... +[80.86 --> 81.46] You're a noob. +[81.46 --> 82.64] There. +[82.78 --> 84.02] I muted my computer. +[84.48 --> 87.12] So I think the current goal that we're working on... +[87.12 --> 91.62] We actually just uploaded the Shock Callers Channel Super Fun video last week. +[92.10 --> 94.70] Wancho made up his Paul and Kyle was last week. +[94.86 --> 96.62] The old school unboxing is done. +[97.04 --> 101.06] So Wingardium, get the F back to work, Luke, is the goal we're working on right now. +[101.06 --> 104.06] So he's going to have to have a life-size cutout of Harry Potter. +[104.44 --> 109.78] Daniel Radcliffe has Harry Potter in his room and we'll put some funny speech bubble on him or something. +[110.00 --> 113.72] And then the next one is going to be a Linus Tech Tips LAN hoodie. +[113.94 --> 114.94] So there you go, guys. +[115.00 --> 116.96] It's newoffice.linustechtips.com. +[117.06 --> 122.90] We've got a great show for you guys today, including Ghost Cars Now Becoming a Reality. +[122.90 --> 130.76] And I don't mean ghost cars like cops and then you get a ticket because you were doing something wrong and you didn't realize they were a cop. +[131.18 --> 134.56] We've also got Steam Games are now region locked. +[134.82 --> 142.42] So there is a reason for this that goes beyond just Valve are bad people and they want you to pay more for games. +[143.14 --> 143.96] What else we got? +[144.66 --> 146.76] Sorry, I was dealing with getting hair out of my mouth. +[146.88 --> 148.70] I still don't understand how anyone does this. +[148.70 --> 153.72] Eric Schmidt says there's nothing to worry about with AI because he doesn't understand things. +[153.80 --> 154.84] We'll talk more about that later. +[155.00 --> 155.10] Yep. +[155.30 --> 158.88] And Sony versus GOP, also known as Guardians of Peace. +[158.96 --> 160.94] There's been a ton of updates with that. +[161.10 --> 163.18] Now, I'm a little confused. +[163.30 --> 173.54] Is it Guardians of Peace, like the little small green things, or Guardians of Peace, like people not terrorizing each other? +[174.86 --> 177.70] Guardians of Peace, but they don't necessarily define what peace. +[177.70 --> 178.30] Part of it. +[178.30 --> 178.58] Yeah. +[178.80 --> 179.68] All I understand now. +[179.68 --> 182.54] They're like, we are Guardians over part of the world. +[182.66 --> 182.88] Get it? +[182.92 --> 184.58] Oh my god, that actually makes so much sense. +[185.20 --> 185.80] Intro time. +[190.40 --> 192.14] I can't even deal with his hair right now. +[193.12 --> 194.24] I literally can't deal with it. +[194.34 --> 198.68] For what it's worth, the elastic on this habit headband thing is really tight. +[199.34 --> 202.64] And like, I'm going to be doing this show without oxygen to my brain. +[202.64 --> 203.64] All right. +[203.64 --> 207.74] All right. +[207.74 --> 212.04] So our sponsors today are the one and only Dollar Shave Club. +[213.04 --> 214.94] Oh, that's so adorable. +[215.16 --> 215.84] Look at that. +[215.84 --> 218.34] They put little Christmas junk next to it. +[219.08 --> 222.64] We have Christmas hats and a Christmas tree and a Christmas man. +[223.66 --> 224.00] A Christmas? +[225.04 --> 226.20] You don't call them Christmas men? +[226.44 --> 226.88] Snowman. +[227.44 --> 227.78] No. +[227.96 --> 228.70] It's a snowman. +[228.92 --> 229.58] Dollar Shave Club. +[229.72 --> 230.10] Shave time. +[230.22 --> 230.78] Shave money. +[231.06 --> 231.78] Shave yourself. +[232.44 --> 233.14] Shave a snowman. +[233.14 --> 234.48] You look like you could use a shave. +[234.54 --> 235.68] I could probably use a shave right now. +[235.68 --> 237.72] If you're going to make that costume a little more convincing. +[237.92 --> 238.14] Yeah. +[238.34 --> 238.60] All right. +[238.64 --> 239.90] We've also got Intel. +[240.22 --> 243.52] Take advantage of fantastic holiday rebates. +[243.60 --> 248.44] Also in tune with the holiday season with the Christmas hats and all that kind of stuff. +[248.46 --> 250.00] This is also Christmassy. +[250.50 --> 250.98] What's also... +[250.98 --> 251.50] Oh, yeah, yeah. +[251.56 --> 251.92] The lower thirds. +[251.92 --> 252.80] The WAN Show logo has a Christmas hat. +[252.80 --> 253.70] It's Christmassy and everything. +[253.84 --> 254.06] I know. +[254.18 --> 254.78] It's like... +[254.78 --> 258.10] It's almost like we should have done this a couple weeks ago in order to get our money's +[258.10 --> 261.94] worth out of completely redoing all of our lower thirds and sponsor intros. +[262.08 --> 263.06] Thanks, Nick Van Berkel. +[263.98 --> 264.46] Exactly. +[265.90 --> 266.54] All right. +[266.60 --> 269.68] So why don't we just like kick things right off here. +[269.82 --> 274.02] So ghost cars are becoming a reality thanks to Jaguar. +[274.12 --> 275.62] So people should probably see this video. +[275.84 --> 276.96] We should probably... +[276.96 --> 277.12] Yeah. +[277.18 --> 279.06] We should probably show you guys the video. +[279.64 --> 284.60] Basically, the video is pure bullshit, but it's still worth watching just so that you +[284.60 --> 292.22] can get some idea of what Jaguar wants you to believe is coming, even if it has really +[292.22 --> 295.40] very little to do with what's actually going to be coming. +[295.40 --> 298.76] My laptop is just like, yeah, maybe I can... +[298.76 --> 298.78] Yay, laptop. +[298.78 --> 301.06] Maybe I'll scroll a page eventually here. +[301.18 --> 301.76] There we go. +[302.16 --> 304.68] Maybe I'll load this YouTube's... +[304.68 --> 306.50] I got to stop this stream. +[306.64 --> 307.04] What is it? +[307.08 --> 307.98] What is it doing? +[307.98 --> 308.04] What is it doing? +[308.56 --> 311.36] Your laptop is just not a happy laptop right now. +[311.44 --> 311.84] I know. +[312.20 --> 313.50] This is not good. +[313.80 --> 314.10] Okay. +[314.50 --> 315.14] Thank you. +[315.44 --> 316.26] Stop streaming. +[318.38 --> 318.90] And... +[318.90 --> 320.36] Start streaming. +[320.94 --> 321.34] All right. +[321.40 --> 321.52] Here. +[321.52 --> 322.48] I'll show you guys this. +[322.60 --> 322.96] Here we go. +[323.58 --> 323.96] All right. +[324.06 --> 327.98] So 360 degree urban... +[327.98 --> 328.46] Windscreen. +[328.58 --> 328.60] Windscreen. +[328.60 --> 329.50] Windscreen. +[329.64 --> 329.82] Okay. +[329.94 --> 334.84] So basically, the concept they're trying to sell us here is that the pillars... +[334.84 --> 341.78] So like this pillar here, for example, will be able to turn transparent by... +[341.78 --> 346.80] Well, basically by replacing the top material here with screens so that you'll effectively +[346.80 --> 348.24] be able to see through them. +[348.24 --> 351.68] So you'd have cameras on the outside of the car and then you'd have the pillars be covered +[351.68 --> 353.16] in screens so you can kind of see through them. +[353.40 --> 356.66] Now there's a couple of reasons that this just flat out, straight up won't work. +[356.74 --> 361.44] And one of them is that the way that your eyes focus is going to change. +[361.48 --> 366.52] So you won't just be able to look out the windshield and look to the left without refocusing +[366.52 --> 369.78] your eyes on the pillar because the object will be much closer to you. +[369.84 --> 371.00] So this is kind of cool too. +[371.06 --> 374.62] You can see that they didn't want to spend too much on the VFX here. +[374.62 --> 378.62] So they only had that go transparent for a very short period of time. +[379.78 --> 380.78] I did kind of notice that too. +[380.86 --> 384.06] But I think what it was actually trying to point out there is when you look at stuff, +[384.16 --> 384.72] it will change. +[384.72 --> 385.56] Yes, it will be. +[385.58 --> 386.88] It's not always trying to be transparent. +[386.90 --> 391.18] Which is yet another potential point of failure for something like this if it were to work. +[391.24 --> 391.86] This one's cool. +[392.20 --> 397.52] So the idea is that there's a ghost car in the same sense as when you're playing a racing +[397.52 --> 397.90] game. +[398.20 --> 399.06] There's a ghost car. +[399.12 --> 400.12] You shouldn't race against it. +[400.12 --> 402.04] I'm sure that's not what Jaguar is endorsing here. +[402.18 --> 407.38] But the idea is that instead of your traditional turn by turn navigation, you just follow this +[407.38 --> 409.68] like imaginary car in front of you. +[409.76 --> 411.90] Which doesn't seem like a super great implementation. +[412.20 --> 416.76] Like I'd almost wish that they went with the actual kind of racing game thing that I see +[416.76 --> 420.88] a lot of racing games actually set up, which is where they just show like the arrows around +[420.88 --> 421.54] turns and stuff. +[421.64 --> 421.74] Yeah. +[421.96 --> 422.80] Lines on the road. +[422.96 --> 423.62] Lines on the road. +[423.72 --> 424.44] Arrows around turns. +[424.86 --> 428.82] Show like show a grid on the road in front of you and be like, go along this curve. +[428.82 --> 429.44] Something like that. +[429.52 --> 432.22] Not a car in front of you, which usually represents nothing. +[432.60 --> 437.14] And it just says like, follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me repeatedly, which is going +[437.14 --> 438.00] to get crazy annoying. +[438.04 --> 442.94] And the thing about a car in front of you is that you're, that means again, it's an eye +[442.94 --> 443.56] focused thing. +[443.60 --> 445.68] You're looking right in front of you. +[445.74 --> 447.96] That's a very myopic way to drive. +[447.96 --> 452.88] That's not going to increase your situational awareness where looking further off into the +[452.88 --> 456.10] distance is going to let you take better advantage of your peripheral vision. +[456.10 --> 461.82] And it's going to allow you to spot hazards more easily on the road. +[462.06 --> 464.30] And the car is intentionally right in front of you. +[464.40 --> 468.06] The road lines and potentially arrows and stuff that Linus and I were just talking about +[468.06 --> 471.98] are going to be kind of off to the side or below your main vision. +[472.12 --> 475.68] So you'd see it out of your peripherals instead of it being the direct thing that you're looking +[475.68 --> 475.90] at. +[475.94 --> 477.96] So it shouldn't actually distract you from driving. +[478.32 --> 481.56] That's another problem that I noticed with the pillars is unless they do like some pretty +[481.56 --> 486.28] intense eye movement detection, a lot of times that you're looking at certain pillars, it +[486.28 --> 487.78] might not know that you're actually looking at them. +[487.86 --> 488.98] So it might not click in. +[490.16 --> 493.32] This is, I don't know, I don't know what Twitch is doing. +[493.44 --> 495.98] Your laptop, I think, is the problem. +[496.04 --> 497.96] It's like a real problem though. +[498.08 --> 500.28] So I was trying to participate in Twitch chat there. +[500.38 --> 502.84] That did not happen. +[503.36 --> 503.74] All right. +[503.74 --> 506.70] So I think there's more people in Twitch chat saying that I'm prettier than you. +[507.04 --> 508.48] So, well, I'm a nun. +[508.82 --> 514.88] We're not supposed to be, you know, putting it on for everyone to see or something. +[515.22 --> 516.16] Oh, oh, oh. +[516.48 --> 521.04] Speaking of getting, putting it out there for everyone to see the channel super fun going +[521.04 --> 524.30] up this weekend is freaking awesome. +[524.72 --> 532.74] It involves, it, it does involve fake boobs, but not in any way that you could possibly be +[532.74 --> 533.16] expecting. +[533.32 --> 534.74] You will not see this coming. +[534.74 --> 539.02] There's going to be that one dude who like guesses the exact thing. +[539.60 --> 540.48] No, there isn't. +[540.62 --> 541.06] Okay. +[542.18 --> 543.24] No, I really don't. +[543.24 --> 543.74] Challenge accepted. +[543.86 --> 545.52] Everyone post on the forum what you think it's going to be. +[545.52 --> 545.90] I sincerely. +[545.90 --> 548.20] And then go watch the video and figure out if it's going to be it or not. +[548.68 --> 549.46] Sincerely doubt it. +[549.68 --> 550.08] All right. +[550.14 --> 552.30] Let's go ahead and move into our next topic here. +[552.54 --> 554.60] Oh, one thing that I want to talk about before we go forward. +[554.64 --> 554.84] Hold on. +[554.94 --> 558.12] X-Tank Slayer X was the one who posted the last topic on the forum. +[558.22 --> 558.60] Thank you. +[558.76 --> 560.00] I still want to talk about the last topic. +[560.00 --> 565.36] So, um, with this kind of stuff coming to cars, more technology coming into cars now, +[565.62 --> 570.46] I think it would be pretty cool if tech reviewers started reviewing cars. +[570.62 --> 575.22] And I think car companies need to kind of figure this out too, because standard traditional +[575.22 --> 581.04] car guys, when it's going to start coming to electrical cars and cars with beams that +[581.04 --> 586.44] you can see through and projected cars on the road and 360 degree sonar and like all this +[586.44 --> 589.48] other kind of stuff that cars are starting to get, I think they need tech guys on it. +[589.80 --> 594.54] So at CES, I know I'm going to at least try to check out a couple cars and see if we can +[594.54 --> 596.16] get some cool technology overviews. +[596.40 --> 597.82] I'm not going to be looking into engines. +[598.30 --> 601.40] I'm not going to be looking into anything like that, but I'll just look into like, +[601.48 --> 603.76] oh, it has this cool tech or that cool tech. +[603.76 --> 603.92] Yeah. +[603.98 --> 609.42] Cars are, cars are becoming something that the typical gear head is not necessarily like +[609.42 --> 614.62] they'll probably look at this kind of stuff the same way that, you know, a hardcore audio +[614.62 --> 620.58] file is going to look at, you know, 3d positional software sound on something like a headset. +[620.70 --> 621.34] Well, hold on a second. +[621.40 --> 622.48] Like, does it sound good or not? +[622.62 --> 624.20] These guys are going to be like, well, hold on. +[624.24 --> 625.44] Does it handle well or not? +[625.50 --> 630.80] Whereas guys like us are going to be like, yeah, like what OS is that Android dash system +[630.80 --> 631.16] running? +[631.34 --> 633.46] And how does it, I think we need kind of both teams here. +[633.46 --> 636.72] Like they can, they can check out the engine and all that kind of stuff or the motor, +[636.82 --> 638.44] I guess, depending on which anyways. +[640.08 --> 641.10] Speaking of which. +[641.24 --> 643.68] Speaking of cars not even needing engines anymore. +[644.50 --> 645.10] All right. +[645.10 --> 651.68] So our next topic here is the Assassin's Creed creator reveals a triple A historical action +[651.68 --> 652.60] survival game. +[653.54 --> 653.90] Wow. +[653.90 --> 656.06] Just in case you haven't heard of one of those before. +[656.50 --> 661.46] So this was posted on the forum by, I would love to tell you, but my laptop really is a +[661.46 --> 662.90] broken piece of crap right now. +[662.90 --> 664.02] This is supposed to be by. +[664.02 --> 665.12] Rohif Kumar SP. +[665.46 --> 665.68] Yeah. +[665.76 --> 667.62] And the original article here is from GameSpot. +[667.68 --> 668.88] Do you want to go ahead and drop that in the chat? +[669.08 --> 669.62] Oh, yes. +[669.66 --> 670.68] I forgot to do the last one. +[670.76 --> 670.98] Okay. +[671.02 --> 672.16] Maybe drop them both in there. +[672.18 --> 673.90] Or I don't think you can do them back to back, can you? +[674.28 --> 675.24] It's not a good idea. +[675.36 --> 675.68] Okay. +[675.68 --> 676.54] I will just do this one. +[676.88 --> 677.10] Sure. +[677.88 --> 678.20] Boom. +[678.28 --> 678.82] There we go. +[679.16 --> 679.46] All right. +[679.52 --> 680.80] So, oh, we're looking at the dock. +[680.88 --> 681.06] Not that. +[681.06 --> 681.50] There we go. +[681.88 --> 682.30] All right. +[682.30 --> 684.82] So, Panache Digital Games. +[685.08 --> 686.46] What's the scoop on this? +[686.46 --> 690.20] So, this guy left after he didn't like the direction that AC was going. +[690.30 --> 694.50] I believe this was after the series of AC2 games. +[694.58 --> 696.80] So, after Ezio, I believe this is when he left. +[697.12 --> 698.28] Someone might correct me on that. +[698.28 --> 705.02] He then went to THQ, where he started to develop 1666, a new game fairly similar to Assassin's +[705.02 --> 705.10] Creed. +[705.12 --> 706.68] And we all know what happened to THQ. +[706.88 --> 707.24] Yes. +[707.44 --> 710.36] And then Ubisoft absorbed that portion of them. +[710.62 --> 712.32] And he was working for them again. +[712.34 --> 714.88] Taking 1666 and taking him back. +[715.24 --> 719.84] He promptly left again and is now like, screw all you guys. +[720.20 --> 722.16] I'm going to make my own freaking studio. +[722.54 --> 724.20] So, has started Panache Games. +[724.40 --> 725.72] I hope I'm pronouncing that right. +[725.82 --> 726.10] But, yeah. +[726.30 --> 727.00] I think it's Panache. +[727.00 --> 728.18] So, yeah. +[728.44 --> 730.26] There's no official name for it yet. +[730.72 --> 736.12] No one actually knows if he was able to buy back the IP of 1666 or any of that kind of +[736.12 --> 737.82] stuff because I think he might have been trying. +[738.78 --> 739.54] So, yeah. +[739.66 --> 741.56] We know he's going to continue trying. +[741.76 --> 742.88] Whether or not... +[742.88 --> 744.94] This wig, man. +[745.26 --> 750.08] Whether or not he has to restart completely or he's able to continue on his previous work. +[750.16 --> 754.00] By buying back the rights for 1666 or something along those lines. +[754.06 --> 755.68] Whether it's going to be 1666. +[755.68 --> 756.84] We don't know any of that kind of stuff. +[757.00 --> 758.52] But, yeah. +[758.72 --> 759.26] He's doing it. +[759.38 --> 764.52] And he's referenced more than once that he thinks that positive change can happen throughout +[764.52 --> 766.98] the world through video games, which I kind of actually do agree with. +[767.18 --> 770.96] And he thinks a very good platform for that is AAA titles because they're very wide reaching. +[771.52 --> 776.84] And looking at how much I liked Assassin's Creed 2 and all of its iterations, I would be happy +[776.84 --> 778.44] if he makes something to that caliber again. +[778.44 --> 779.80] All right. +[780.28 --> 783.88] So, this is really interesting. +[784.20 --> 787.74] I always feel a little bit weird when we're reporting on our sponsors. +[787.74 --> 788.10] Sponsors stuff? +[788.32 --> 788.42] I know. +[788.42 --> 792.18] Especially when it's positive because I feel like I should be trying to find something +[792.18 --> 793.02] crappy about it. +[793.16 --> 793.92] Well, it's not in Canada. +[793.92 --> 794.36] Yeah. +[794.36 --> 794.66] Yeah. +[794.72 --> 795.38] That's crappy. +[795.58 --> 795.86] Okay. +[795.96 --> 796.14] There. +[796.24 --> 800.22] The crappiest thing about this next news item is that I can't get it. +[800.60 --> 803.42] So, the original article is on Tom's Hardware dot com. +[803.48 --> 804.34] I don't know if you posted that yet. +[804.60 --> 804.80] I'm just giving you a moment. +[804.80 --> 809.18] And it was posted by Luciferia, Luciferia, whatever. +[809.50 --> 810.54] It was posted on the forum. +[810.98 --> 812.54] So, Ting dot com. +[812.66 --> 818.28] You know those guys that they do some advertising through us for their mobile service where they +[818.28 --> 820.32] actually buy wholesale. +[820.88 --> 827.56] They buy wholesale from Sprint and then they resell on like a pay per use sort of plan with +[827.56 --> 832.26] their customers instead of asking people to sort of commit to X number of minutes per +[832.26 --> 832.94] month or whatever else. +[832.94 --> 841.06] So, they've got their whole mobile thing going on and now they are expanding their service +[841.06 --> 843.48] to provide gigabit internet. +[844.50 --> 846.04] How fascinating. +[846.40 --> 851.36] So, they jumped in on a company by which I think they jumped in at like 70% of Blue Ridge +[851.36 --> 854.72] Networks and Blue Ridge Networks was already offering gigabit internet. +[854.72 --> 862.84] But it was 100 megabit per second and 50 megabit per second down, 50 megabit per second up for +[862.84 --> 864.38] around $500. +[864.94 --> 870.34] And the new tier should be that same kind of deal but around $100 a month which is pretty +[870.34 --> 871.14] insane actually. +[871.42 --> 872.18] So, hold on a second. +[872.32 --> 876.66] According to Blue Ridge's announcement, the company will have pricing plans for gigabit internet +[876.66 --> 878.78] with rates under $100. +[878.78 --> 879.78] Oh, okay. +[879.78 --> 883.90] With budget oriented plans that could be even lower than the initial offering. +[883.90 --> 888.78] Additionally, Blue Ridge will honor prices and certain plans for a limited time for customers +[888.78 --> 891.00] who upgrade to Ting internet. +[891.00 --> 892.92] Pretty awesome. +[893.30 --> 897.66] The company also has plans to provide a television package in 2015 as well. +[898.98 --> 900.18] How interesting. +[900.62 --> 909.06] Looks like if you sit on your ass and don't upgrade infrastructure, other people who think +[909.06 --> 915.50] that that money that you were making looks pretty good might actually invest and compete +[915.50 --> 916.00] with you. +[916.62 --> 917.98] Whoa, AT&T. +[918.80 --> 920.54] Holy actual crap. +[920.54 --> 925.02] And with the pricing structure that Ting is setting up, like, please just wreck AT&T. +[925.02 --> 929.64] And one really interesting thing too is right when this happened, a whole bunch of people +[929.64 --> 935.78] local around Blue whatever networks have now shown interest in the Ting one, Blue Ridge +[935.78 --> 939.24] internet works, because it's much cheaper. +[939.62 --> 941.52] So, it's showing that like people are interested. +[941.94 --> 945.46] AT&T being like, why do you guys need above 6 megabit per second? +[945.86 --> 946.90] Because people want it. +[947.00 --> 948.76] Because the internet shouldn't be slow anymore. +[948.90 --> 949.80] It doesn't make any sense. +[950.54 --> 951.82] So, yeah. +[952.02 --> 960.14] I mean, it really does feel like companies should be able to understand that we've seen +[960.14 --> 963.42] this happen over and over and over again. +[963.80 --> 968.02] I mean, when's the last time that you bought Fujifilm? +[968.02 --> 970.50] It's like Kodak. +[970.50 --> 971.22] It's like Kodak. +[971.30 --> 972.56] What happened to Kodak? +[973.18 --> 976.34] We think digital is a phase. +[976.42 --> 977.14] It's going to pass. +[977.22 --> 978.08] They said that. +[978.50 --> 980.20] We think it's a fad. +[980.56 --> 982.38] It's like, okay, well, where are you today? +[982.38 --> 989.80] It's like if you sit there and do not invest in whatever people are actually wanting to buy. +[989.86 --> 995.60] If you're content to sit there on ass, not innovating, waiting for, you know, government. +[995.60 --> 996.96] Like, when's the last time? +[997.02 --> 997.40] You know what? +[997.46 --> 1002.72] We can complain all we want about sort of government-sanctioned monopolies and all that kind of stuff. +[1003.12 --> 1005.52] But eventually, they all fail. +[1005.52 --> 1014.04] Eventually, competition does happen, even if it takes a little while, even if it takes a new technology in order for it to happen, +[1014.12 --> 1022.56] or even if it takes municipalities going and building their own infrastructure for their own residents to have better access to the services that they want. +[1023.22 --> 1028.50] Sitting there and refusing to innovate has never worked for anyone ever. +[1028.72 --> 1029.88] Someone will come in and crush you. +[1029.90 --> 1029.92] Not once. +[1030.20 --> 1032.36] It happened with Apple and Microsoft. +[1032.36 --> 1035.76] Apple and Microsoft stepped up in a range where no one was actually... +[1035.76 --> 1037.94] It was like, oh, yeah, people don't need consumer computers. +[1038.08 --> 1044.08] And then look at, like, two massive companies nowadays because they stepped up and decided they were going to do something about it. +[1044.90 --> 1047.72] So, yeah, best of luck to you, Ting. +[1047.96 --> 1049.50] Sure wish that you would... +[1049.50 --> 1051.50] Come to freaking Canada, because aren't you from here? +[1053.36 --> 1054.26] What the hell? +[1055.18 --> 1055.58] Yeah. +[1055.58 --> 1063.26] So, anyway, so, right, so their ISP expansion will be somewhere in the neighborhood of Charlottesville, Virginia. +[1063.78 --> 1065.32] So, lucky you guys. +[1065.44 --> 1071.96] I can't wait till we have faster offerings here, even at the new place that we're looking to move into. +[1071.96 --> 1081.42] The only plans that we have available are business versions of the same residential class connection speed, except you get a couple IPs. +[1081.74 --> 1084.90] And I think a better uptime guarantee or something like that. +[1085.70 --> 1088.56] I think they just, like, give you some of your money back if they go down. +[1088.92 --> 1091.28] It's like, oh, okay, well... +[1091.28 --> 1092.86] But you just charged me more. +[1092.92 --> 1093.18] Yeah. +[1093.36 --> 1094.52] For the same service. +[1095.78 --> 1096.60] Not better. +[1098.02 --> 1099.62] Anyways, are we going to tackle this big one now? +[1099.82 --> 1100.68] Yeah, sure. +[1100.68 --> 1101.80] Why don't we jump right into this? +[1101.82 --> 1105.72] So, this was posted by AlexP10v2 on the forum. +[1106.08 --> 1107.24] Original articles here. +[1107.36 --> 1109.00] The Verge has been doing a lot of coverage of this. +[1109.08 --> 1112.22] We've also got Gizmodo and NPR on here. +[1112.30 --> 1113.50] And, like, everyone else. +[1113.50 --> 1122.28] And everyone and their dog, because this is so much deeper than tech news or movie news or anything. +[1122.96 --> 1123.36] So, um... +[1123.36 --> 1126.60] This is, like, basically every realm of news you could possibly imagine. +[1126.60 --> 1127.60] Yeah, political... +[1127.60 --> 1128.80] Politics, tech... +[1128.80 --> 1131.40] Politics and tech. +[1131.58 --> 1132.12] Maybe two. +[1132.48 --> 1133.04] Um, anyways. +[1133.36 --> 1134.20] So... +[1134.20 --> 1136.64] The GOP has, quote-unquote, won. +[1136.76 --> 1138.28] The interview has been pulled. +[1138.72 --> 1140.86] Uh, not only because of Sony. +[1141.00 --> 1143.66] A lot of different movie theaters, uh... +[1143.66 --> 1146.60] Have publicly said that they would not show it. +[1146.76 --> 1148.30] Even if it wasn't pulled by Sony. +[1148.30 --> 1156.72] Now, that isn't to say that there was a very large amount of smaller, maybe independent-level movie theaters that weren't willing to show it. +[1156.78 --> 1158.40] And actually asked to show it. +[1158.40 --> 1162.34] I know George R.R. Martin actually offered up his own theater. +[1163.02 --> 1163.90] And was like, yes! +[1164.34 --> 1165.06] Show it here! +[1165.18 --> 1165.48] Please! +[1165.66 --> 1166.84] You guys are cowards! +[1166.94 --> 1167.78] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[1167.92 --> 1170.14] It's George R.R. Martin, so he obviously didn't pull any punches. +[1170.14 --> 1172.86] Um, and was like, yes! +[1172.98 --> 1174.02] Show it at my theater, please! +[1174.36 --> 1177.22] Even if it's a terrible movie, I will continue showing it. +[1177.48 --> 1178.26] It doesn't matter. +[1178.72 --> 1179.24] Um... +[1179.24 --> 1180.00] So, you skipped a step. +[1180.14 --> 1188.04] This is in response to the hackers basically threatening terror attacks anywhere where the movie was shown, including the premiere. +[1188.04 --> 1195.20] And warning that even if you live nearby, you better go away anytime that the video is being shown. +[1195.32 --> 1201.02] They actually referred to the September 11th, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. +[1201.62 --> 1204.08] So, uh, so big deal overall. +[1204.52 --> 1206.04] And I understand... +[1206.60 --> 1208.70] I understand pretty much every angle, actually. +[1208.98 --> 1210.02] Like, it makes sense. +[1210.10 --> 1215.10] You don't want to have your employees personal lives get screwed up. +[1215.10 --> 1215.70] You don't want to endanger your employees. +[1215.70 --> 1218.08] Because that's one big thing that the GOP has been attacking. +[1218.24 --> 1222.58] We will release, like, I don't know if this is the right terminology, but SIN number, like your social insurance... +[1222.58 --> 1223.26] I don't know what it is. +[1223.32 --> 1224.24] Social security number. +[1224.42 --> 1225.22] Yeah, that one. +[1225.82 --> 1225.88] Um... +[1225.88 --> 1226.62] Yeah, they did. +[1226.74 --> 1230.08] They released the social security numbers, home addresses, previous salaries. +[1230.44 --> 1231.72] It's bad for your employees. +[1231.92 --> 1233.76] It's bad for people that you work with. +[1233.80 --> 1234.84] It's bad for your own company. +[1234.94 --> 1236.82] It's very, very bad. +[1237.30 --> 1241.56] Um, and movie theaters were essentially being threatened to be blown up. +[1241.56 --> 1241.96] Yeah. +[1241.96 --> 1244.84] Because the GOP is like, if you go there, +[1244.84 --> 1245.86] you're putting yourself at risk. +[1245.86 --> 1248.10] If you live near there, you should leave your home. +[1248.46 --> 1250.18] Like, they're being pretty serious. +[1250.36 --> 1251.76] As a company that owns a movie theater, +[1251.86 --> 1255.92] you probably don't want your entire massive investment to be blown up because you showed one movie. +[1256.12 --> 1256.32] Yep. +[1256.40 --> 1257.14] I get all that. +[1257.16 --> 1261.22] You don't want your customers to die because they came to a movie at your theater. +[1261.34 --> 1262.50] Like, I get it. +[1262.66 --> 1262.86] Yep. +[1262.86 --> 1264.88] But, with that said, +[1265.02 --> 1267.18] so I don't remember who was first, +[1267.32 --> 1271.22] but basically the major theaters pulled out kind of one by one, +[1271.34 --> 1273.24] and then when enough of them pulled out, +[1273.36 --> 1274.72] Sony pulled the whole thing. +[1275.20 --> 1277.92] And the problem with this is that +[1277.92 --> 1280.54] had everyone showed it, +[1280.92 --> 1283.16] and had everyone gone to see it, +[1283.26 --> 1285.30] there would have been no way for the GOP +[1285.30 --> 1287.28] to attack that many targets. +[1287.28 --> 1289.20] So, solidarity, one way or the other, +[1289.26 --> 1292.24] it was total victory or total loss in this case. +[1292.68 --> 1296.40] And there's an update from today, actually. +[1296.56 --> 1299.78] Obama has criticized Sony for canceling the release, +[1300.18 --> 1301.18] calling it a mistake. +[1301.62 --> 1304.90] We cannot have a society in which some dictator someplace +[1304.90 --> 1308.32] can start imposing censorship here in the United States. +[1308.78 --> 1310.90] So, the president in his year-end news conference +[1310.90 --> 1313.52] added that he was sympathetic about their concerns, +[1313.70 --> 1314.14] but said, +[1314.22 --> 1316.08] I wish they would have spoken to me first. +[1316.08 --> 1319.86] because this is not just about Sony at this point. +[1319.98 --> 1321.66] This is about, like he said, +[1321.90 --> 1324.28] some dictator, some place, +[1324.68 --> 1327.24] basically saying what movie you can or cannot +[1327.24 --> 1329.64] put in your theater in the United States of America, +[1329.80 --> 1332.16] which is, wow. +[1332.80 --> 1336.88] There was a very thinly veiled thread in response +[1336.88 --> 1338.64] saying that the United States +[1338.64 --> 1341.22] might have to find some way to respond in kind. +[1341.42 --> 1342.34] At the same time, +[1342.34 --> 1345.64] this happened and is very true, +[1345.64 --> 1346.92] I'm sure they will at some time. +[1347.76 --> 1349.18] But where is it in here? +[1349.68 --> 1350.72] I can't find it in here. +[1350.80 --> 1352.34] But there's somewhere else at the same time +[1352.34 --> 1352.78] where they're saying, +[1352.90 --> 1356.42] this also might have been designed to provoke an attack, +[1356.46 --> 1358.66] and we have to be aware about that at the same time. +[1359.02 --> 1360.80] So, they know this. +[1361.02 --> 1361.20] Yeah. +[1361.28 --> 1362.48] They're being aware of that, +[1362.54 --> 1363.66] which I think is really good. +[1363.80 --> 1363.98] Yeah. +[1363.98 --> 1365.82] Because it was very likely that it was intended +[1365.82 --> 1367.12] to provoke something. +[1368.34 --> 1369.64] I must have been trying to do something. +[1370.90 --> 1372.52] This is a really ugly situation. +[1372.74 --> 1377.02] I know places like T-Fury are massively capitalizing on this. +[1377.40 --> 1380.32] T-Fury's daily t-shirts right now are all about the interview. +[1381.22 --> 1382.04] One of them is like, +[1382.08 --> 1383.66] I wanted to go see a crappy movie, +[1383.74 --> 1385.00] and now all I have is this t-shirt, +[1385.08 --> 1386.30] and it shows Seth Rogen's face. +[1386.88 --> 1388.12] The other one is like, +[1388.94 --> 1390.66] I can't remember exactly how it goes, +[1390.76 --> 1392.66] but I, for one, bow down to our new, +[1392.74 --> 1394.04] beloved North Korean leaders, +[1394.60 --> 1396.16] and it shows the interview stuff. +[1396.98 --> 1397.58] Oh, wow. +[1398.00 --> 1399.10] It's, yeah. +[1399.66 --> 1401.70] I'm sure T-Fury's making a whole bunch of money off that, +[1401.74 --> 1402.40] and that's why they did it, +[1402.44 --> 1406.00] but it's interesting how spoken about this is, +[1406.04 --> 1407.84] because it's a huge issue. +[1408.36 --> 1410.22] I know George R. R. Martin brought up stuff like, +[1411.34 --> 1413.14] I think this was kind of during World War II, +[1413.26 --> 1414.52] although I don't know a ton about this, +[1414.52 --> 1416.14] but I think it was called The Dictator, +[1416.30 --> 1418.00] and it was with Charlie Chaplin. +[1418.46 --> 1419.32] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1419.38 --> 1421.06] Yeah, okay, and they still screened that. +[1421.42 --> 1421.56] Yeah. +[1421.82 --> 1425.36] I don't know if that's necessarily 100% of a fair comparison. +[1425.64 --> 1427.26] Yeah, I haven't seen The Dictator, unfortunately. +[1427.26 --> 1428.42] I haven't seen The Dictator. +[1429.56 --> 1432.56] It's obviously a very different type of attack that's happening, +[1432.80 --> 1433.78] yada, yada, yada, +[1433.78 --> 1435.42] but it is a very interesting comparison, +[1435.64 --> 1437.16] and I do recommend that you go look up +[1437.16 --> 1438.80] what George R. R. Martin has to say about this. +[1438.80 --> 1442.70] And the big problem here is not what the GOP won today, +[1443.12 --> 1445.76] because this just looks like a test. +[1445.76 --> 1447.06] This almost doesn't matter. +[1447.18 --> 1449.98] Yeah, it's just a stupid movie at the end of the day, +[1450.10 --> 1451.92] but this looked like a test. +[1452.10 --> 1456.70] Can we make these mega corporations bend to our will, +[1457.06 --> 1459.32] and can we incite fear? +[1459.46 --> 1460.28] I mean, it's terrorism. +[1460.46 --> 1461.44] That's how terrorism works. +[1461.50 --> 1462.64] If you're making people afraid, +[1462.76 --> 1464.26] then you're effective. +[1464.26 --> 1469.68] And so, basically, their message from today was, +[1470.02 --> 1471.86] it's very wise you have made the decision +[1471.86 --> 1473.54] to cancel the release of the interview. +[1473.70 --> 1475.18] It will be very useful for you. +[1476.16 --> 1478.12] We will ensure the security of your data +[1478.12 --> 1479.92] unless you make additional trouble. +[1480.06 --> 1481.66] And that's exactly the point. +[1481.66 --> 1487.46] So now, Sony is completely under the thumb of the GOP forever. +[1488.74 --> 1489.14] That's it. +[1489.24 --> 1489.56] They won. +[1489.70 --> 1489.80] Yep. +[1491.14 --> 1494.68] And at some point, they're bound to do something, +[1495.02 --> 1497.76] and that information will leak eventually. +[1498.14 --> 1500.86] So they haven't safeguarded anything. +[1501.12 --> 1501.46] Nope. +[1501.46 --> 1502.66] All they've done is... +[1503.46 --> 1504.12] Delayed the inevitable. +[1504.12 --> 1506.48] ...enabled a round two later, +[1506.68 --> 1509.70] as opposed to getting it all out in the open now. +[1509.70 --> 1511.74] And, like, when you have people, +[1511.96 --> 1513.36] like the President of the United States, +[1513.46 --> 1513.94] being like, +[1514.08 --> 1515.54] dude, just call me, +[1515.88 --> 1517.30] you should probably do that, +[1517.40 --> 1519.40] because they're going to step behind you a lot, +[1519.78 --> 1522.10] because this is super important for... +[1522.10 --> 1523.58] Even that might not be enough, though. +[1523.62 --> 1525.86] I mean, there's so many issues +[1525.86 --> 1528.42] with the information being leaked from Sony +[1528.42 --> 1529.42] that have... +[1529.42 --> 1531.16] that are nothing to do with anything +[1531.16 --> 1532.88] Barack Obama can help with. +[1532.88 --> 1533.70] Well, it's... +[1533.70 --> 1535.40] A lot of it is going to be financial pain. +[1536.16 --> 1536.44] Yeah. +[1536.52 --> 1537.48] And you could help with that. +[1537.50 --> 1538.68] There will be some financial pain, +[1538.68 --> 1539.72] but the financial... +[1539.72 --> 1540.00] Like, I mean, +[1540.02 --> 1542.00] any support the United States is going to give +[1542.00 --> 1543.20] is going to be temporary, +[1543.20 --> 1546.22] and the impact on them as a company +[1546.22 --> 1548.70] from all this information being leaked +[1548.70 --> 1550.94] could last 10 years, 20 years. +[1551.68 --> 1552.16] Like... +[1552.16 --> 1553.84] It's one of the biggest deals +[1553.84 --> 1555.54] that's happened politically in a long time. +[1555.70 --> 1557.82] I'm pretty sure... +[1557.82 --> 1559.06] Oh, chat wants the links. +[1559.06 --> 1559.82] I'm on it, I'm on it, I'm on it. +[1559.86 --> 1560.04] Sure. +[1560.18 --> 1561.54] I'm pretty sure that +[1561.54 --> 1564.30] they could step up appropriately. +[1565.04 --> 1566.04] I doubt it. +[1566.04 --> 1568.60] I personally completely disagree with that. +[1568.66 --> 1570.08] I think that for them to... +[1570.08 --> 1571.74] I mean, yes, I think they should have probably +[1571.74 --> 1573.74] consulted with the U.S. government, +[1573.90 --> 1575.74] but I don't think anything +[1575.74 --> 1577.12] that they could have told them +[1577.12 --> 1578.18] would have helped. +[1578.60 --> 1580.48] It's not about what they could have told them. +[1580.56 --> 1581.08] Or done anything. +[1581.08 --> 1581.94] It has nothing to do with it. +[1582.10 --> 1583.96] I mean, what are they going to do +[1583.96 --> 1584.92] short of, you know, +[1584.98 --> 1586.70] an airstrike on where the GOP +[1586.70 --> 1587.60] is holding the data? +[1587.64 --> 1588.20] It doesn't matter. +[1588.58 --> 1589.68] The data's going to go out. +[1589.98 --> 1590.36] Right. +[1590.36 --> 1591.18] I know that. +[1591.50 --> 1592.88] But what I mean is that +[1592.88 --> 1595.10] nothing the U.S. said or did +[1595.10 --> 1596.56] was going to change +[1596.56 --> 1598.58] Sony's decision-making process here. +[1598.58 --> 1598.78] It doesn't have to do... +[1598.78 --> 1599.86] They just need to give them money. +[1600.78 --> 1601.10] Right. +[1601.20 --> 1602.24] But that's not going to... +[1602.24 --> 1603.36] Okay, that's not going to change +[1603.36 --> 1605.22] the impact of that data +[1605.22 --> 1606.30] eventually being leaked. +[1606.56 --> 1607.38] No one's going to want to... +[1607.38 --> 1608.80] So don't go for an eventual leak. +[1608.92 --> 1609.82] Drop it all now. +[1609.98 --> 1611.82] Essentially consider all of those projects +[1611.82 --> 1613.46] abandoned and then get financial support +[1613.46 --> 1614.12] from the U.S. government. +[1614.12 --> 1617.30] I think that's a very simplistic view +[1617.30 --> 1619.22] and I really doubt that that is +[1619.22 --> 1621.48] how that conversation would have gone down. +[1621.90 --> 1624.60] A number of folks are calling for Sony +[1624.60 --> 1626.66] to release the interview online. +[1627.52 --> 1629.38] Sony Pictures CEO Michael Linton says +[1629.38 --> 1631.14] that while Sony has every desire +[1631.14 --> 1632.98] to release the film online +[1632.98 --> 1634.78] isn't the immediate option. +[1635.06 --> 1637.30] So we are considering some options +[1637.30 --> 1638.92] as it stands right now. +[1638.92 --> 1640.44] While there have been a number of suggestions, +[1640.68 --> 1643.58] there has not been one major VOD distributor. +[1643.58 --> 1644.70] So video on demand distributor. +[1645.08 --> 1646.42] One major e-commerce site +[1646.42 --> 1647.22] that has stepped forward +[1647.22 --> 1647.98] and said they're willing +[1647.98 --> 1649.72] to distribute the movie for us. +[1650.44 --> 1653.40] So, wow. +[1653.96 --> 1655.92] Again, we don't have that direct interface +[1655.92 --> 1656.90] with the American public. +[1657.02 --> 1657.90] I mean, one option, +[1658.22 --> 1659.00] just throwing it out +[1659.00 --> 1660.16] in case you're watching, Mike, +[1660.58 --> 1662.82] would be the brand new +[1662.82 --> 1664.40] BitTorrent paywall option. +[1665.76 --> 1667.54] Hey, hey, you do have an interface +[1667.54 --> 1668.94] directly with the American public. +[1669.02 --> 1671.12] In fact, the public all over the world. +[1671.70 --> 1671.98] All you have to do... +[1671.98 --> 1672.88] It's hosted on a website. +[1672.88 --> 1673.84] It really doesn't matter. +[1673.92 --> 1674.78] All you have to do is... +[1674.78 --> 1676.16] Well, no, I see what they mean. +[1676.22 --> 1677.16] They probably don't have +[1677.16 --> 1678.30] the infrastructure for that. +[1678.68 --> 1680.62] Like, if a billion people +[1680.62 --> 1682.04] hit that page at the same time... +[1682.04 --> 1683.08] They host PSN. +[1683.48 --> 1684.02] How do they not have +[1684.02 --> 1684.42] the infrastructure for that? +[1684.42 --> 1685.82] How often does PSN go down? +[1685.96 --> 1686.86] Because of hackers. +[1687.26 --> 1687.54] Right. +[1687.80 --> 1689.72] So go behind someone else's wall. +[1689.88 --> 1690.94] They've obviously been using +[1690.94 --> 1692.08] AWS and other services. +[1692.38 --> 1692.68] Okay. +[1693.18 --> 1693.70] Yes. +[1694.02 --> 1694.88] But... +[1694.88 --> 1697.70] That's not a better option +[1697.70 --> 1698.78] than just torrenting it. +[1698.78 --> 1699.56] I... +[1699.56 --> 1699.78] Okay. +[1700.10 --> 1701.80] Because you can't attack a torrent. +[1701.80 --> 1703.22] I wasn't saying it was a better option. +[1703.22 --> 1703.80] Oh, okay. +[1704.34 --> 1704.72] Because I... +[1704.72 --> 1706.06] You're very aggressive right now. +[1706.46 --> 1708.12] This is a simplistic view! +[1708.28 --> 1709.24] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! +[1709.68 --> 1711.10] Well, I really think it is. +[1711.50 --> 1712.56] I think you're wrong as well, +[1712.62 --> 1713.16] and that's okay. +[1713.28 --> 1714.14] This is a talk show. +[1714.20 --> 1715.10] We talk about things. +[1715.16 --> 1715.88] Yes, we do. +[1715.94 --> 1717.04] Calm down, Mr. Sir. +[1717.32 --> 1717.76] All right. +[1717.86 --> 1718.82] So what's our... +[1718.82 --> 1720.12] I guess there's not... +[1720.12 --> 1721.38] There's not really much else to say. +[1721.46 --> 1722.28] The GOP won. +[1723.62 --> 1725.46] There's the North Green stuff. +[1726.08 --> 1726.68] Oh, yeah. +[1726.70 --> 1726.98] Okay. +[1726.98 --> 1727.84] There's like three... +[1727.84 --> 1729.10] This was done in three topics. +[1729.34 --> 1729.66] Right. +[1729.66 --> 1730.02] For whatever reason. +[1730.38 --> 1731.64] So I'm going to skim over one +[1731.64 --> 1732.28] pretty quickly, +[1732.46 --> 1733.60] which is Reddit has started +[1733.60 --> 1733.82] banning users... +[1733.82 --> 1734.78] Have you posted that link yet? +[1735.10 --> 1735.54] Nope. +[1735.70 --> 1735.90] Okay. +[1735.96 --> 1737.12] This one was posted by +[1737.12 --> 1738.50] XtankslayerX. +[1738.72 --> 1740.12] Reddit has started banning users +[1740.12 --> 1741.66] that are leaking some of the stuff +[1741.66 --> 1743.74] that has been leaked from the GOP. +[1743.94 --> 1745.12] So a subreddit called +[1745.12 --> 1746.66] SonyGOP was banned, +[1746.66 --> 1748.10] and a moderator for that page +[1748.10 --> 1749.58] called SonyGOP +[1749.58 --> 1750.80] was also banned, +[1750.96 --> 1751.58] and I'm sure there was +[1751.58 --> 1752.36] other ones as well. +[1752.72 --> 1754.22] This is not a new thing. +[1754.32 --> 1755.38] This happened also during +[1755.38 --> 1756.20] the fappening +[1756.20 --> 1757.02] where they closed +[1757.02 --> 1758.00] certain stuff like that. +[1758.06 --> 1758.80] They're not closing +[1758.80 --> 1760.18] discussions about it. +[1760.50 --> 1761.46] They're closing information +[1761.46 --> 1763.20] that is leaked to do with this. +[1763.32 --> 1764.46] Like not... +[1764.46 --> 1764.68] Hmm. +[1764.84 --> 1765.82] Information that is leaked +[1765.82 --> 1766.58] from the GOP, +[1766.72 --> 1767.54] they're getting rid of that, +[1767.78 --> 1768.18] essentially. +[1768.48 --> 1768.70] Yeah. +[1768.82 --> 1769.84] So it's one of those things +[1769.84 --> 1770.76] where, you know, +[1770.84 --> 1773.02] Reddit is one of those... +[1773.02 --> 1774.02] It's one of those places +[1774.02 --> 1774.72] on the internet +[1774.72 --> 1775.58] where there's not +[1775.58 --> 1776.92] a whole ton of censorship, +[1777.14 --> 1779.12] but I have to completely agree +[1779.12 --> 1780.20] with what they're doing here. +[1780.62 --> 1781.34] It seems like +[1781.34 --> 1782.02] the only real +[1782.02 --> 1783.22] appropriate response. +[1783.36 --> 1784.18] You can't stop people +[1784.18 --> 1785.04] from talking about it, +[1785.06 --> 1785.72] and you shouldn't +[1785.72 --> 1786.74] because it's really important, +[1787.24 --> 1789.18] but you have to stop people +[1789.18 --> 1790.58] from leaking +[1790.58 --> 1791.86] the personal information +[1791.86 --> 1793.02] of the people +[1793.02 --> 1793.94] whose lives +[1793.94 --> 1795.12] have been damaged +[1795.12 --> 1796.12] by this incident +[1796.12 --> 1796.76] that ultimately +[1796.76 --> 1798.28] probably had +[1798.28 --> 1799.96] nothing to do with them. +[1800.16 --> 1800.58] Yeah. +[1800.58 --> 1802.00] Nothing they did personally +[1802.00 --> 1802.88] could have possibly +[1802.88 --> 1803.38] merited... +[1803.38 --> 1804.00] Considering how big Sony is +[1804.00 --> 1804.58] and how many different +[1804.58 --> 1805.32] things they do. +[1805.62 --> 1805.78] Yeah. +[1805.88 --> 1806.88] And the number of people +[1806.88 --> 1808.00] whose information was leaked +[1808.00 --> 1808.94] is far more +[1808.94 --> 1809.62] than would have worked +[1809.62 --> 1810.82] on an individual film. +[1811.00 --> 1811.16] Yeah. +[1811.54 --> 1812.54] Even possible +[1812.54 --> 1813.22] for all these people +[1813.22 --> 1813.78] to have worked on +[1813.78 --> 1814.74] a single film, so... +[1814.74 --> 1814.90] Yep. +[1817.10 --> 1818.90] Now, I think the next one is... +[1818.90 --> 1820.26] I believe it was the FBI, +[1820.48 --> 1821.06] but there's a... +[1821.06 --> 1821.94] Yeah, the FBI +[1821.94 --> 1823.18] has essentially said +[1823.18 --> 1824.96] that it was North Korea. +[1826.06 --> 1826.38] Whoa. +[1826.54 --> 1827.22] Hold on a second. +[1827.32 --> 1828.08] Let's be clear. +[1828.08 --> 1829.72] It was a group +[1829.72 --> 1830.90] working on behalf +[1830.90 --> 1832.38] of the North Korean government. +[1832.58 --> 1832.74] Yeah. +[1833.58 --> 1834.10] So... +[1834.10 --> 1834.46] So... +[1834.46 --> 1836.08] Some people have brought up... +[1836.08 --> 1838.20] Yeah. +[1839.48 --> 1840.16] There's people +[1840.16 --> 1840.68] that have brought up +[1840.68 --> 1841.08] different things... +[1841.08 --> 1842.20] Don't like change the topic. +[1842.72 --> 1843.10] What do you mean +[1843.10 --> 1843.90] change the topic? +[1844.98 --> 1845.46] No! +[1846.18 --> 1846.72] It's our show. +[1846.98 --> 1847.20] Go. +[1848.46 --> 1848.94] Wow. +[1849.40 --> 1850.34] He is mad today. +[1851.24 --> 1852.08] There's people +[1852.08 --> 1852.94] that have brought up stuff +[1852.94 --> 1854.64] like it's very easy +[1854.64 --> 1855.54] to potentially +[1855.54 --> 1856.64] translate your code +[1856.64 --> 1857.90] to make it seem +[1857.90 --> 1858.66] like you're someone else +[1858.66 --> 1859.26] because something +[1859.26 --> 1860.08] that they brought up +[1860.08 --> 1861.60] was that some of the tools +[1861.60 --> 1862.90] and the language +[1862.90 --> 1863.96] and yada yada +[1863.96 --> 1865.28] was in previous attacks +[1865.28 --> 1866.44] against South Korea +[1866.44 --> 1867.34] from North Korea. +[1867.54 --> 1867.72] Right. +[1868.28 --> 1869.32] But people brought up +[1869.32 --> 1870.24] that you can try +[1870.24 --> 1871.06] to masquerade +[1871.06 --> 1871.92] as someone else. +[1872.02 --> 1872.60] That's one of the best +[1872.60 --> 1873.66] defenses you can possibly +[1873.66 --> 1874.60] have as a hacker. +[1876.10 --> 1877.82] But I'm kind of assuming +[1877.82 --> 1878.44] that the FBI +[1878.44 --> 1879.86] probably has more information +[1879.86 --> 1880.82] than other people, +[1881.16 --> 1882.98] so they might know for sure. +[1883.44 --> 1883.62] I don't know. +[1883.62 --> 1884.06] Well, they're spying +[1884.06 --> 1885.36] on absolutely everyone. +[1885.36 --> 1885.48] Everyone. +[1885.48 --> 1886.72] Not the FBI specifically, +[1886.72 --> 1887.78] but I'm sure, you know, +[1888.22 --> 1889.54] Joe at the FBI +[1889.54 --> 1890.50] knows, like, +[1890.74 --> 1892.12] Jim at the NSA. +[1892.12 --> 1892.18] NSA. +[1892.46 --> 1893.10] They have lunch +[1893.10 --> 1893.70] and brunches +[1893.70 --> 1894.16] and whatnot. +[1896.26 --> 1897.02] Over tea +[1897.02 --> 1898.08] and lipstick conversations. +[1898.20 --> 1899.36] Now, anyone at the FBI +[1899.36 --> 1900.24] whose name is Joe +[1900.24 --> 1900.60] is like, +[1900.90 --> 1901.34] Oh! +[1902.36 --> 1903.44] How does Lannis Act +[1903.44 --> 1904.56] know about our brunches? +[1906.94 --> 1907.78] Anyways, yeah. +[1907.88 --> 1909.18] So that's not honestly, +[1909.76 --> 1910.34] I don't think there's +[1910.34 --> 1911.42] a ton to talk about that, +[1911.42 --> 1912.40] but this is more, +[1912.64 --> 1913.80] this has more information +[1913.80 --> 1914.30] for, like, +[1914.80 --> 1915.76] the states is planning +[1915.76 --> 1917.66] to retaliate in some form. +[1917.88 --> 1918.42] Proportional response. +[1919.10 --> 1919.34] Yes. +[1919.52 --> 1920.62] It's a national security, +[1920.72 --> 1922.50] serious national security matter. +[1923.64 --> 1923.96] Maybe, +[1924.20 --> 1924.80] there may be, +[1925.14 --> 1925.96] they may believe +[1925.96 --> 1926.98] that a response from us +[1926.98 --> 1927.92] in one fashion or another +[1927.92 --> 1929.46] would be advantageous to them, +[1929.84 --> 1930.78] so, you know, +[1930.84 --> 1931.98] we're gonna make sure +[1931.98 --> 1933.34] we're treading carefully here. +[1933.72 --> 1934.58] Deeply concerned +[1934.58 --> 1936.08] about the destructive nature +[1936.08 --> 1936.74] of this attack +[1936.74 --> 1938.12] on a private sector entity +[1938.12 --> 1939.78] and the ordinary citizens +[1939.78 --> 1940.68] who work there. +[1941.58 --> 1942.90] North Korea is attacking +[1942.90 --> 1943.76] our infrastructure. +[1943.96 --> 1944.66] It is also attacking +[1944.66 --> 1945.38] our values. +[1945.70 --> 1946.62] The decision to pull +[1946.62 --> 1947.92] the interview from theaters, +[1948.06 --> 1948.56] unfortunately, +[1948.78 --> 1949.88] is a North Korean victory +[1949.88 --> 1950.54] in its attacks +[1950.54 --> 1951.18] on our freedom. +[1951.54 --> 1952.42] We better respond +[1952.42 --> 1953.58] comprehensively +[1953.58 --> 1954.70] to defend freedom of speech +[1954.70 --> 1955.98] in the face of terrorist threats +[1955.98 --> 1956.80] and cyber attacks. +[1956.82 --> 1957.46] Pretty intense. +[1957.58 --> 1958.36] At the same time, +[1958.42 --> 1959.12] this is where the note +[1959.12 --> 1959.68] that I was looking for +[1959.68 --> 1960.38] previously was, +[1960.62 --> 1961.42] at the same time, +[1961.48 --> 1961.84] they have noted +[1961.84 --> 1962.66] that such attackers +[1962.66 --> 1963.56] are often looking +[1963.56 --> 1964.54] to provoke a response. +[1964.76 --> 1964.88] Yep. +[1964.88 --> 1965.56] So they're probably +[1965.56 --> 1966.64] looking for a response +[1966.64 --> 1967.28] and the United States +[1967.28 --> 1967.78] is going to be +[1967.78 --> 1968.46] giving them one, +[1968.70 --> 1969.94] so they're going to, +[1970.34 --> 1970.80] I guess, +[1970.92 --> 1971.98] with that knowledge in mind, +[1972.06 --> 1972.62] try to make sure +[1972.62 --> 1973.52] that it is the most +[1973.52 --> 1974.48] appropriate thing possible. +[1974.68 --> 1975.44] It's gonna be +[1975.44 --> 1977.94] an interesting period of time. +[1978.08 --> 1979.10] Yes, it is. +[1979.22 --> 1980.06] And that last one +[1980.06 --> 1981.12] was posted on the forum +[1981.12 --> 1983.18] by XtankSlayerX. +[1983.30 --> 1984.28] Did you post that in the chat? +[1984.38 --> 1985.28] I did, yes. +[1985.40 --> 1985.48] Okay. +[1985.48 --> 1986.02] All right, +[1986.08 --> 1986.74] so we've got +[1986.74 --> 1988.90] our next topic here. +[1989.26 --> 1990.26] It looks like we have +[1990.26 --> 1991.82] every source for this topic +[1991.82 --> 1994.36] other than the actual +[1994.36 --> 1995.68] Valve page, +[1996.08 --> 1997.32] so you'll have to +[1997.32 --> 1998.24] forgive us for that. +[1998.68 --> 2000.06] But Steam Games +[2000.06 --> 2001.26] slash gifting +[2001.26 --> 2003.46] is now region locked, +[2003.60 --> 2004.64] due at least partially, +[2005.34 --> 2006.60] due at least partially +[2006.60 --> 2007.74] to the collapse +[2007.74 --> 2009.26] of the Russian currency, +[2009.40 --> 2009.90] the ruble. +[2009.90 --> 2012.70] So I suspect that +[2012.70 --> 2013.92] Valve's just been looking +[2013.92 --> 2014.54] for an excuse +[2014.54 --> 2015.98] to do this for quite some time +[2015.98 --> 2019.36] because every other industry +[2019.36 --> 2021.16] eventually figures out +[2021.16 --> 2022.16] that if they want to have +[2022.16 --> 2023.44] regionalized pricing, +[2023.76 --> 2026.08] especially for a digital item, +[2026.26 --> 2027.52] they're going to have +[2027.52 --> 2029.20] to lock things down somewhat. +[2029.54 --> 2030.86] It's still something +[2030.86 --> 2031.92] that I, +[2032.18 --> 2034.82] that I hate +[2034.82 --> 2036.44] a lot, +[2036.64 --> 2037.84] but I understand +[2037.84 --> 2038.94] why they're doing it +[2038.94 --> 2040.60] because you don't want +[2040.60 --> 2042.30] gaming to just be +[2042.30 --> 2043.76] completely unaffordable +[2043.76 --> 2044.96] to anyone in Russia +[2044.96 --> 2046.70] because Valve is a +[2046.70 --> 2047.76] US-based company +[2047.76 --> 2049.98] and they have to pay +[2049.98 --> 2051.54] in their deteriorating +[2051.54 --> 2052.40] ruble currency. +[2052.56 --> 2053.40] But then you also +[2053.40 --> 2054.32] don't want +[2054.32 --> 2055.86] certain websites +[2055.86 --> 2057.14] just reselling +[2057.14 --> 2058.48] buckets and buckets +[2058.48 --> 2059.00] of keys +[2059.00 --> 2059.72] because they can get them +[2059.72 --> 2060.76] super cheaply somewhere +[2060.76 --> 2062.12] and sell them elsewhere +[2062.12 --> 2063.10] where they're more expensive. +[2063.10 --> 2063.76] Right. +[2064.56 --> 2065.04] So, +[2065.40 --> 2066.30] so this was going to +[2066.30 --> 2067.12] happen eventually. +[2067.64 --> 2068.92] I think that Valve +[2068.92 --> 2070.32] has actually managed +[2070.32 --> 2071.66] the potential +[2071.66 --> 2073.20] community poop storm +[2073.20 --> 2074.94] pretty darn well. +[2075.04 --> 2075.20] I mean, +[2075.22 --> 2076.24] it helps that Valve +[2076.24 --> 2077.24] probably has, +[2077.44 --> 2077.90] like, +[2078.08 --> 2078.36] you know, +[2078.42 --> 2079.16] It helps that it's happening +[2079.16 --> 2080.00] during the winter sale. +[2080.96 --> 2081.30] Yeah, +[2081.56 --> 2081.86] yeah, +[2082.00 --> 2082.26] yeah. +[2082.26 --> 2082.66] Someone's like, +[2082.76 --> 2083.06] yay, +[2083.16 --> 2083.56] Valve! +[2083.66 --> 2083.78] Oh, +[2083.84 --> 2084.42] that thing happened. +[2084.54 --> 2084.84] Yay, +[2084.98 --> 2085.36] Valve! +[2085.58 --> 2086.44] So they probably +[2086.44 --> 2087.24] timed it right. +[2087.52 --> 2088.62] Valve probably has +[2088.62 --> 2089.52] a couple oopsies +[2089.52 --> 2090.22] in their pocket +[2090.22 --> 2091.44] in terms of things +[2091.44 --> 2091.98] the community +[2091.98 --> 2092.68] is going to forgive +[2092.68 --> 2093.22] them for +[2093.22 --> 2093.76] if they, +[2093.84 --> 2095.02] if they kind of +[2095.02 --> 2095.74] screw them up. +[2096.02 --> 2096.04] So, +[2096.04 --> 2097.56] so basically Steam +[2097.56 --> 2098.62] will no longer +[2098.62 --> 2099.54] allow packages +[2099.54 --> 2100.92] to be unpacked +[2100.92 --> 2101.48] on an account +[2101.48 --> 2102.78] if gifted or traded +[2102.78 --> 2104.42] from a lower priced region +[2104.42 --> 2106.18] to a higher priced region. +[2106.34 --> 2108.06] So if Buddy in the US +[2108.06 --> 2109.68] wants to buy a game +[2109.68 --> 2111.04] for Buddy in Russia, +[2111.26 --> 2112.76] then that will work. +[2112.88 --> 2113.06] Yeah. +[2113.20 --> 2114.18] Which I guess +[2114.18 --> 2114.70] is, +[2114.94 --> 2115.36] is a, +[2115.36 --> 2116.14] is a compromise. +[2116.76 --> 2117.28] So, +[2117.68 --> 2118.28] there's that. +[2118.28 --> 2119.66] But Russia, +[2119.90 --> 2120.46] Southeast Asia, +[2120.62 --> 2121.14] South America, +[2121.42 --> 2121.72] Turkey, +[2122.08 --> 2123.10] those countries +[2123.10 --> 2123.96] will not be able +[2123.96 --> 2124.90] to go the other direction. +[2125.10 --> 2125.20] Yeah. +[2125.28 --> 2125.76] So you won't be able +[2125.76 --> 2126.44] to buy a game +[2126.44 --> 2126.98] for Buddy +[2126.98 --> 2128.76] in other countries +[2128.76 --> 2129.64] if you're from there. +[2130.38 --> 2130.82] So, +[2131.08 --> 2132.00] there you have it. +[2132.06 --> 2132.52] This is, +[2132.86 --> 2133.30] this is, +[2133.40 --> 2133.66] I mean, +[2133.74 --> 2135.16] the impact of this +[2135.16 --> 2135.42] is, +[2135.50 --> 2136.22] is more than you +[2136.22 --> 2137.22] might initially think +[2137.22 --> 2137.98] because especially +[2137.98 --> 2138.72] with the way +[2138.72 --> 2140.80] that entire companies +[2140.80 --> 2142.56] have sprung up +[2142.56 --> 2144.32] around discount games +[2144.32 --> 2145.70] based on buying +[2145.70 --> 2146.42] from one region +[2146.42 --> 2147.34] and selling to another one. +[2147.64 --> 2149.02] Their entire business model +[2149.02 --> 2150.56] literally just disappeared. +[2150.92 --> 2151.94] Completely killed. +[2152.20 --> 2153.66] One fell swoop from Valve +[2153.66 --> 2155.50] and Valve is going +[2155.50 --> 2156.10] to be able +[2156.10 --> 2157.34] to increase their revenues +[2157.34 --> 2158.72] as a direct result +[2158.72 --> 2160.00] of this right here +[2160.00 --> 2160.92] because you won't be able +[2160.92 --> 2162.56] to find that AAA game +[2162.56 --> 2163.96] on launch day +[2163.96 --> 2165.50] for $10 less +[2165.50 --> 2166.14] than you would have +[2166.14 --> 2167.06] otherwise had to pay. +[2167.28 --> 2168.30] You might have to wait a week. +[2169.54 --> 2170.62] Which I guess actually +[2170.62 --> 2171.08] leads us. +[2171.08 --> 2171.74] You might have to wait a week. +[2173.00 --> 2174.02] Speaking of which. +[2174.02 --> 2174.38] The open price. +[2174.46 --> 2174.56] Yeah, +[2174.60 --> 2176.18] we have a topic about that. +[2177.00 --> 2177.40] Uh, +[2177.90 --> 2178.18] do we? +[2178.38 --> 2178.60] Yeah. +[2178.92 --> 2179.38] GameStop. +[2179.38 --> 2180.30] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2180.44 --> 2181.40] GameStop president +[2181.40 --> 2182.16] Tony Bartel. +[2182.22 --> 2182.94] This was posted by +[2182.94 --> 2184.94] Mark21200 +[2184.94 --> 2186.68] says that +[2186.68 --> 2187.84] digital games +[2187.84 --> 2189.88] are too cheap. +[2190.28 --> 2191.06] Oh, no. +[2191.58 --> 2191.86] Like, +[2191.94 --> 2193.32] I gotta get down there. +[2193.66 --> 2194.54] If you put in a T, +[2194.66 --> 2195.38] you would have had it. +[2195.66 --> 2196.06] A T? +[2196.26 --> 2196.50] Yeah. +[2197.42 --> 2197.86] GameStop. +[2198.52 --> 2198.80] Right? +[2198.98 --> 2199.32] See, like, +[2199.36 --> 2199.66] I don't know +[2199.66 --> 2200.18] that's not working. +[2200.18 --> 2200.86] Wait, why aren't you able to... +[2200.86 --> 2201.66] That's weird. +[2201.70 --> 2202.30] I don't know. +[2203.04 --> 2204.02] Yeah, no space. +[2204.02 --> 2205.84] That's weird. +[2206.00 --> 2206.98] You're on the right doc. +[2207.24 --> 2207.52] Yeah. +[2207.76 --> 2209.56] Like, I don't know why I can't find it. +[2209.66 --> 2210.54] Well, um... +[2210.54 --> 2211.48] Can you get that link then? +[2211.60 --> 2212.20] Yeah, sure. +[2212.28 --> 2212.76] I'll just... +[2212.76 --> 2214.64] I'll post the link for you guys in the Twitch chat anyway. +[2214.80 --> 2215.50] I know about it. +[2215.52 --> 2216.18] I've read about this. +[2216.18 --> 2217.68] Um, so, one... +[2217.68 --> 2217.88] Okay. +[2218.16 --> 2219.56] I have to preface this a little bit. +[2219.78 --> 2220.72] I know on the show +[2220.72 --> 2221.60] a lot of the time +[2221.60 --> 2222.32] that I'm up here +[2222.32 --> 2223.54] defending physical games. +[2224.26 --> 2224.62] Uh, +[2225.02 --> 2226.20] I'm not gonna defend this dude. +[2226.52 --> 2228.02] Yeah, we've had enough arguments +[2228.02 --> 2228.70] on this show. +[2229.06 --> 2229.70] Yeah, well, no. +[2229.76 --> 2230.96] I will wreck you +[2230.96 --> 2232.54] when it comes to physical games. +[2232.56 --> 2232.80] Well, no. +[2232.98 --> 2234.62] I like physical games, +[2234.74 --> 2235.88] but I don't think that means +[2235.88 --> 2236.12] that they should be... +[2236.12 --> 2237.54] I like physical games, too. +[2237.80 --> 2238.16] I... +[2238.16 --> 2239.20] Ha ha! +[2240.00 --> 2241.20] It's probably the best show +[2241.20 --> 2242.18] to possibly do that on. +[2242.68 --> 2243.08] Um, +[2243.18 --> 2245.32] I can't defend the dude +[2245.32 --> 2246.10] trying to say that +[2246.10 --> 2248.18] digital games are too cheap. +[2248.32 --> 2249.44] Like, I don't care. +[2250.10 --> 2251.92] Uh, my defense for physical games +[2251.92 --> 2253.38] is stuff like when +[2253.38 --> 2254.96] there's a 50 gigabyte game +[2254.96 --> 2256.54] and someone has a bad internet connection. +[2256.82 --> 2257.06] Yeah. +[2257.38 --> 2258.76] Then go buy the physical game, +[2258.84 --> 2260.32] and I hope that that option +[2260.32 --> 2261.16] is always there. +[2261.32 --> 2262.60] Even if it just becomes +[2262.60 --> 2264.66] GameStop doesn't freaking exist anymore +[2264.66 --> 2266.30] and you have to go order your game on Amazon, +[2266.58 --> 2267.84] Amazon does a pretty good job +[2267.84 --> 2268.84] of making sure that you get your game +[2268.84 --> 2269.50] on release day. +[2269.64 --> 2269.82] Yeah. +[2269.90 --> 2270.88] So that can solve that problem. +[2271.12 --> 2272.34] I don't care about being able +[2272.34 --> 2273.06] to walk into the store. +[2273.22 --> 2274.48] My video game store locally +[2274.48 --> 2275.94] will probably always exist +[2275.94 --> 2277.14] because they're into +[2277.14 --> 2278.58] buying and selling +[2278.58 --> 2279.48] old retro games. +[2279.60 --> 2280.66] They have multifaceted +[2280.66 --> 2281.82] their business very well. +[2281.90 --> 2282.82] That's why they still exist. +[2283.02 --> 2284.40] So it won't be until +[2284.40 --> 2287.32] digital-only games +[2287.32 --> 2288.24] are retro +[2288.24 --> 2289.56] that they'll really run into trouble. +[2289.56 --> 2289.74] Yes. +[2289.74 --> 2290.28] By the time... +[2290.28 --> 2290.90] By that time, +[2291.00 --> 2291.42] the owners, +[2291.56 --> 2292.18] because it's just like +[2292.18 --> 2293.06] a mom-and-pop shop +[2293.06 --> 2294.30] will probably not be interested +[2294.30 --> 2294.88] in running +[2294.88 --> 2296.94] Willow Video anymore anyway. +[2297.04 --> 2297.68] So, like, it's not... +[2297.68 --> 2298.32] It's not... +[2298.32 --> 2299.26] I'm not worried about +[2299.26 --> 2299.92] the one store +[2299.92 --> 2300.90] that I actually care about. +[2300.90 --> 2303.04] Um, and I'm not super worried +[2303.04 --> 2304.12] about physical games +[2304.12 --> 2305.02] completely disappearing. +[2305.14 --> 2306.40] Are you worried about GameStop? +[2306.84 --> 2307.08] No. +[2308.76 --> 2309.98] I'm not worried about GameStop. +[2310.06 --> 2311.70] And, like, this dude's just wrong. +[2311.92 --> 2314.14] He does have a valid point. +[2314.30 --> 2315.82] And this does tie into +[2315.82 --> 2317.46] our segue here +[2317.46 --> 2319.12] where the joke was +[2319.12 --> 2321.12] a AAA title comes out +[2321.12 --> 2322.20] for $59.99 +[2322.20 --> 2323.90] and the next week +[2323.90 --> 2325.34] it's gonna be $49.99. +[2325.54 --> 2326.58] Civilization Beyond Earth +[2326.58 --> 2328.04] got, like, a 50% discount +[2328.04 --> 2329.54] on Winter Sale or something. +[2329.54 --> 2330.92] It's been out for, what, +[2330.98 --> 2331.44] a month? +[2331.60 --> 2332.42] Not that long. +[2332.46 --> 2333.80] Not even a month, I think. +[2334.28 --> 2335.68] So, it's one of the... +[2335.68 --> 2336.78] So, he does make +[2336.78 --> 2337.90] a couple of good points. +[2338.02 --> 2338.54] So, the average... +[2339.42 --> 2340.90] The average sale price... +[2340.90 --> 2341.88] So, a recent survey showed +[2341.88 --> 2342.70] that the average price +[2342.70 --> 2343.52] a consumer pays +[2343.52 --> 2345.28] for a AAA title download +[2345.28 --> 2346.38] is $22. +[2347.66 --> 2348.06] And... +[2348.06 --> 2348.54] Okay. +[2349.20 --> 2350.04] There's no sources +[2350.04 --> 2350.46] for any of this. +[2350.48 --> 2351.70] No sources for any of that. +[2351.78 --> 2352.18] Although, +[2352.98 --> 2354.26] I wouldn't think +[2354.26 --> 2354.98] that that's completely +[2354.98 --> 2355.74] out of the question, +[2355.90 --> 2356.68] especially if you were to... +[2356.68 --> 2357.42] It came out late October. +[2357.70 --> 2358.66] Especially if you were +[2358.66 --> 2360.16] to factor in... +[2360.16 --> 2361.60] Okay, so just over a month +[2361.60 --> 2362.80] for Civilization Beyond Earth. +[2363.04 --> 2363.96] Especially if you were +[2363.96 --> 2364.66] to factor in +[2364.66 --> 2366.02] that many AAA titles +[2366.02 --> 2367.82] are gonna be older ones +[2367.82 --> 2368.62] that are being sold +[2368.62 --> 2369.88] bundled with other things +[2369.88 --> 2370.98] or at $5 +[2370.98 --> 2372.50] or whatever the case may be. +[2372.60 --> 2374.26] I totally believe +[2374.26 --> 2374.92] that number. +[2375.40 --> 2376.38] And when asked +[2376.38 --> 2377.16] how much they would be +[2377.16 --> 2377.96] willing to pay, +[2378.12 --> 2378.54] apparently, +[2378.76 --> 2379.66] this is no source for this, +[2379.66 --> 2380.08] no sources. +[2380.24 --> 2380.94] Consumers said +[2380.94 --> 2382.32] approximately $35. +[2382.66 --> 2382.94] Although, +[2383.74 --> 2384.46] I kind of believe +[2384.46 --> 2385.22] that number too. +[2385.22 --> 2386.44] I'd pay $30, $40 +[2386.44 --> 2388.18] for a AAA game. +[2388.24 --> 2389.56] I think the most expensive +[2389.56 --> 2390.28] one I bought +[2390.28 --> 2391.22] in the last little while +[2391.22 --> 2392.30] was South Park +[2392.30 --> 2393.02] Stick of Truth. +[2393.38 --> 2394.16] That thing held +[2394.16 --> 2395.86] its freaking price forever. +[2396.18 --> 2396.96] I was sitting +[2396.96 --> 2397.78] and waiting. +[2397.90 --> 2398.40] I think it's like +[2398.40 --> 2399.52] finally on sale now. +[2399.56 --> 2400.46] Is it finally on sale? +[2400.46 --> 2401.08] Well, whatever. +[2401.18 --> 2401.96] I played it already. +[2401.96 --> 2402.56] Yeah, no, I know. +[2402.68 --> 2403.54] That one took a while +[2403.54 --> 2403.88] for sure. +[2404.00 --> 2404.60] Screw you, +[2404.68 --> 2405.84] Trey Parker and Matt Stone. +[2405.90 --> 2406.36] I'm just kidding. +[2406.42 --> 2407.04] I love you guys. +[2407.14 --> 2408.52] But the last season +[2408.52 --> 2409.06] of South Park +[2409.06 --> 2409.42] really sucked. +[2409.42 --> 2410.10] I don't... +[2410.10 --> 2411.50] No matter how wonderful it is, +[2411.56 --> 2412.44] I don't think games +[2412.44 --> 2413.26] should be discounted +[2413.26 --> 2413.94] so quickly +[2413.94 --> 2414.88] because I think +[2414.88 --> 2415.74] you're ripping profits +[2415.74 --> 2416.16] away from companies. +[2416.32 --> 2416.54] Anyways, +[2416.72 --> 2417.92] but that's up to them. +[2417.96 --> 2419.16] So he has a point. +[2419.20 --> 2420.00] But that's up to them. +[2420.00 --> 2421.92] But he has a point +[2421.92 --> 2424.08] about the fact +[2424.08 --> 2425.48] that digital games +[2425.48 --> 2426.82] can be discounted +[2426.82 --> 2427.42] so readily +[2427.42 --> 2428.40] and so easily +[2428.40 --> 2429.66] just on a whim. +[2429.78 --> 2430.52] Oh, it's not moving +[2430.52 --> 2431.00] fast enough. +[2431.08 --> 2432.22] Oh, discount the whole thing. +[2432.56 --> 2433.96] Ignoring that traditional +[2433.96 --> 2434.96] supply chain +[2434.96 --> 2436.14] and process +[2436.14 --> 2437.18] that existed +[2437.18 --> 2438.28] for discounting. +[2439.22 --> 2441.96] It potentially does damage +[2441.96 --> 2443.40] publishers and developers. +[2443.74 --> 2445.10] But he's not talking +[2445.10 --> 2445.74] about this +[2445.74 --> 2447.14] out of concern for them. +[2447.34 --> 2447.42] No. +[2447.56 --> 2448.66] It has nothing to do with that. +[2448.72 --> 2449.88] It has to do with concern +[2449.88 --> 2451.00] for his own business +[2451.00 --> 2452.40] because if he cared +[2452.40 --> 2453.18] that much +[2453.18 --> 2454.92] about the due process +[2454.92 --> 2456.96] of dropping the prices +[2456.96 --> 2457.58] of games +[2457.58 --> 2458.36] or whatever else, +[2458.46 --> 2459.10] then why weren't +[2459.10 --> 2460.02] we hearing from him +[2460.02 --> 2461.52] back when NCIX +[2461.52 --> 2462.48] was trying to sell +[2462.48 --> 2464.30] hard copies of video games +[2464.30 --> 2465.34] five years ago +[2465.34 --> 2466.60] and didn't get +[2466.60 --> 2467.76] any price protection +[2467.76 --> 2468.72] when there were +[2468.72 --> 2469.54] price drops +[2469.54 --> 2470.74] and all this stuff +[2470.74 --> 2471.50] that GameStop +[2471.50 --> 2472.56] definitely does +[2472.56 --> 2473.88] get to enjoy +[2473.88 --> 2475.66] at least for the +[2475.66 --> 2476.88] limited amount of time +[2476.88 --> 2477.56] that they will still +[2477.56 --> 2478.14] be around. +[2479.48 --> 2480.62] So I guess that's +[2480.62 --> 2481.66] all we really have +[2481.66 --> 2482.42] to say about that. +[2482.42 --> 2482.96] That's all I have +[2482.96 --> 2483.50] to say about that. +[2483.72 --> 2484.98] Yeah, I'm getting done. +[2485.14 --> 2485.78] Good luck with that, +[2485.86 --> 2486.18] GameStop. +[2486.36 --> 2487.42] Yeah, exactly. +[2488.70 --> 2489.46] All right. +[2489.56 --> 2489.96] I don't know why +[2489.96 --> 2490.72] I couldn't find that topic +[2490.72 --> 2491.18] should be. +[2491.26 --> 2492.98] That Cool Blue Kid +[2492.98 --> 2494.20] posted on the forum. +[2494.32 --> 2494.88] This is from +[2494.88 --> 2496.22] kitguru.net, +[2496.32 --> 2499.20] also assassinscreed.ubi.com. +[2499.26 --> 2499.86] Are you posting this +[2499.86 --> 2500.22] in the forum? +[2500.30 --> 2500.66] I'll go ahead +[2500.66 --> 2501.20] and throw it up +[2501.20 --> 2501.50] on the screen. +[2501.52 --> 2501.54] I'm going to try +[2501.54 --> 2502.56] and find this one again. +[2503.62 --> 2504.22] Is your just +[2504.22 --> 2505.50] search not working? +[2505.68 --> 2506.38] Oh no, you got this. +[2506.42 --> 2506.86] You got this. +[2506.86 --> 2507.16] All right. +[2507.56 --> 2508.54] So Linus' screen, +[2508.70 --> 2511.04] patch four on hold. +[2513.10 --> 2514.66] My favorite quote from this. +[2514.76 --> 2515.74] Can I just quote something +[2515.74 --> 2516.14] real quick? +[2516.24 --> 2516.56] You may. +[2516.56 --> 2517.32] I think it's in the notes. +[2517.54 --> 2518.08] You may. +[2518.44 --> 2518.84] Ubisoft, +[2519.20 --> 2520.58] rigorous quality control +[2520.58 --> 2522.16] is of paramount importance +[2522.16 --> 2522.62] to us +[2522.62 --> 2523.46] and your feedback +[2523.46 --> 2524.50] over these past weeks +[2524.50 --> 2525.32] has indicated +[2525.32 --> 2526.08] that it is important +[2526.08 --> 2527.20] to you as well. +[2527.42 --> 2527.96] We are choosing +[2527.96 --> 2528.66] to hold off +[2528.66 --> 2529.58] until we can give you +[2529.58 --> 2530.72] the improvements +[2530.72 --> 2531.68] we've promised. +[2532.20 --> 2532.76] We are committing +[2532.76 --> 2533.34] to delivering +[2533.34 --> 2534.72] major performance improvements +[2534.72 --> 2535.72] which requires +[2535.72 --> 2536.76] that we refurbish +[2536.76 --> 2537.60] the Paris map +[2537.60 --> 2538.42] and it will be +[2538.42 --> 2539.34] a few more days +[2539.34 --> 2539.94] until we can hit +[2539.94 --> 2540.70] that high level +[2540.70 --> 2541.20] of quality +[2541.20 --> 2542.26] our players deserve. +[2542.26 --> 2542.58] Okay, +[2542.72 --> 2544.22] can I have some fun +[2544.22 --> 2545.16] with this for a little bit? +[2545.22 --> 2545.36] Sure. +[2545.36 --> 2546.34] Because you got to read it +[2546.34 --> 2547.42] and that was pretty fun. +[2547.68 --> 2548.08] Yep, +[2548.28 --> 2549.04] go for it. +[2549.16 --> 2549.44] Okay, +[2549.44 --> 2553.38] so first up Ubisoft, +[2553.98 --> 2555.76] choosing to hold off +[2555.76 --> 2557.12] until we can give you +[2557.12 --> 2558.72] what we promised. +[2559.22 --> 2560.10] That's the kind of thing +[2560.10 --> 2561.96] you do before you take the money. +[2562.88 --> 2564.40] Not when people already +[2564.40 --> 2565.28] have the product +[2565.28 --> 2566.74] and you get to kind of +[2566.74 --> 2567.32] sit on ass. +[2567.42 --> 2567.52] Like, +[2567.90 --> 2570.96] I am usually the first one +[2570.96 --> 2573.16] to applaud a game developer +[2573.16 --> 2574.08] or publisher +[2574.08 --> 2575.36] or anyone involved +[2575.36 --> 2576.02] in the process +[2576.02 --> 2577.24] of releasing a game +[2577.24 --> 2577.78] to the public. +[2577.78 --> 2578.48] I'm the first one +[2578.48 --> 2579.14] to applaud them +[2579.14 --> 2579.96] for holding off +[2579.96 --> 2580.64] until it's ready. +[2581.16 --> 2582.08] That just does not apply +[2582.08 --> 2582.86] to patches. +[2583.62 --> 2584.64] Patches are supposed +[2584.64 --> 2585.50] to be dealt with +[2585.50 --> 2586.60] quick fast +[2586.60 --> 2588.22] and putting them on hold +[2588.22 --> 2588.98] is super bad. +[2589.38 --> 2589.78] Okay, +[2589.88 --> 2590.58] and the second one, +[2590.62 --> 2591.06] the second one +[2591.06 --> 2591.64] that's really fun. +[2592.24 --> 2593.04] We are committed +[2593.04 --> 2593.70] to blah blah blah +[2593.70 --> 2594.74] major performance improvements +[2594.74 --> 2595.44] which requires +[2595.44 --> 2596.40] that we refurbish +[2596.40 --> 2597.34] the Paris map. +[2597.48 --> 2597.64] Now, +[2598.14 --> 2599.30] what other map is there +[2599.30 --> 2600.32] in Assassin's Creed Unity? +[2601.02 --> 2601.60] Can I just, +[2601.84 --> 2602.92] can I get some clarification +[2602.92 --> 2603.54] on this? +[2603.62 --> 2604.10] I'm sorry, +[2604.20 --> 2605.86] is there a London map? +[2606.44 --> 2607.76] Is there a Zimbabon +[2607.78 --> 2608.98] you know, +[2609.14 --> 2609.38] map? +[2609.50 --> 2610.22] Zimbabwe map? +[2610.34 --> 2610.48] Yeah, +[2610.56 --> 2611.66] is there like a, +[2611.86 --> 2613.16] they go on vacation sometimes. +[2613.22 --> 2614.22] Is there a Tokyo map? +[2614.58 --> 2614.72] Like, +[2614.90 --> 2616.00] what other map is there? +[2616.20 --> 2617.60] The way that they spun this +[2617.60 --> 2618.30] is hilarious. +[2618.52 --> 2619.64] We have to refurbish +[2619.64 --> 2620.58] our Paris map. +[2620.82 --> 2622.24] You mean the entire +[2622.24 --> 2623.48] game world? +[2623.76 --> 2624.54] Is that what you mean +[2624.54 --> 2625.32] to say Ubisoft? +[2625.72 --> 2626.66] You have to refurbish +[2626.66 --> 2627.76] the entire game world? +[2627.82 --> 2628.56] Because I can understand +[2628.56 --> 2629.56] why the patch is on hold +[2629.56 --> 2630.46] if that's what you need to do +[2630.46 --> 2631.34] and I think we all know +[2631.34 --> 2632.50] that that's what you need to do +[2632.50 --> 2633.48] because the game was limited +[2633.48 --> 2634.70] because there's way too many +[2634.70 --> 2635.80] draw calls on the PC +[2635.80 --> 2637.46] and they couldn't be arsed +[2637.46 --> 2638.30] to fix it +[2638.30 --> 2639.06] even though +[2639.06 --> 2640.34] some idiot +[2640.34 --> 2641.18] with a podcast +[2641.18 --> 2642.58] already knows +[2642.58 --> 2643.60] that that's the problem. +[2643.74 --> 2644.00] And yes, +[2644.06 --> 2645.06] it's because of light bouncing +[2645.06 --> 2645.38] and stuff +[2645.38 --> 2646.28] but the draw calls +[2646.28 --> 2647.80] is the base essential +[2647.80 --> 2648.64] part of the problem. +[2652.24 --> 2653.10] 634 comments. +[2653.16 --> 2653.92] This might be fun. +[2654.04 --> 2654.46] Oh God. +[2654.92 --> 2656.26] We need like another +[2656.26 --> 2658.20] because like +[2658.20 --> 2659.20] I think they're done digging. +[2659.82 --> 2661.02] I think we need like a hat +[2661.02 --> 2661.94] like a dunce cap +[2661.94 --> 2662.08] or something. +[2662.08 --> 2662.42] Look at this. +[2662.42 --> 2664.60] The first post +[2664.60 --> 2665.66] is already excellent. +[2665.88 --> 2666.44] Oh man. +[2666.70 --> 2667.68] How about more forewarning +[2667.68 --> 2668.34] next time? +[2668.60 --> 2668.88] I mean, +[2668.98 --> 2670.08] you tell us on the day +[2670.08 --> 2671.54] it was supposed to be released +[2671.54 --> 2672.80] that it won't be coming out. +[2673.22 --> 2674.86] Surely you knew beforehand +[2674.86 --> 2676.26] that you were running behind. +[2678.80 --> 2679.72] Oh no. +[2679.98 --> 2680.30] Oh. +[2681.14 --> 2682.36] I'm also disappointed +[2682.36 --> 2683.32] that the console versions +[2683.32 --> 2684.24] have been patched +[2684.24 --> 2685.50] and the PC one hasn't. +[2685.80 --> 2685.98] Yeah, +[2686.02 --> 2687.76] that's from Moor Mork +[2687.76 --> 2689.50] on the Assassin's Creed. +[2689.50 --> 2690.60] Mo Zero RK. +[2691.08 --> 2692.08] Mo Zero RK. +[2692.94 --> 2693.46] Yeah. +[2693.78 --> 2695.04] He tried to spell. +[2695.76 --> 2696.12] Or she. +[2696.52 --> 2697.50] And it didn't work. +[2697.74 --> 2697.90] Nope. +[2699.38 --> 2700.78] This is just more of a +[2700.78 --> 2702.00] like science-y news thing. +[2702.10 --> 2702.96] Not really gaming. +[2703.22 --> 2703.94] Definitely tech. +[2704.26 --> 2706.10] The Mars rover Curiosity +[2706.10 --> 2707.96] confirms organics +[2707.96 --> 2708.68] on Mars. +[2708.80 --> 2708.94] Now, +[2709.30 --> 2710.80] they did find traces. +[2710.86 --> 2710.96] Oh, +[2711.00 --> 2711.70] this was posted by +[2711.70 --> 2712.56] Devilish Booster +[2712.56 --> 2713.04] on the forum, +[2713.12 --> 2713.40] by the way. +[2713.48 --> 2714.44] I'll get that link in chat, +[2714.52 --> 2714.86] you guys. +[2715.00 --> 2715.22] Yeah. +[2715.54 --> 2716.02] So, +[2716.02 --> 2718.30] they did find traces +[2718.30 --> 2719.08] before, +[2719.08 --> 2719.78] but, +[2719.78 --> 2720.92] it was considered +[2720.92 --> 2722.86] to be unconfirmed +[2722.86 --> 2724.36] because they weren't sure +[2724.36 --> 2726.00] if the rover itself +[2726.00 --> 2727.10] had brought +[2727.10 --> 2728.74] the things that they found before. +[2728.86 --> 2728.98] Well, +[2729.06 --> 2729.38] now, +[2729.54 --> 2731.56] they are definitely sure. +[2731.76 --> 2731.90] So, +[2731.98 --> 2732.96] whether they were delivered +[2732.96 --> 2734.94] by carbon-rich meteorites +[2734.94 --> 2736.86] or actually formed on Mars +[2736.86 --> 2737.78] is something that +[2737.78 --> 2738.66] could take +[2738.66 --> 2740.06] years +[2740.06 --> 2740.74] and +[2740.74 --> 2742.48] most definitely +[2742.48 --> 2743.72] new equipment +[2743.72 --> 2744.88] on the surface of Mars +[2744.88 --> 2745.52] in order for them +[2745.52 --> 2746.40] to actually +[2746.40 --> 2747.74] ascertain for certain. +[2748.28 --> 2748.76] Can you say +[2748.76 --> 2750.04] ascertain for certain? +[2750.10 --> 2750.70] Because certain +[2750.70 --> 2751.74] is kind of the root +[2751.74 --> 2753.16] of the word ascertain. +[2754.16 --> 2755.06] I'm not sure. +[2755.06 --> 2755.54] I don't really think so, +[2755.70 --> 2755.98] but maybe. +[2755.98 --> 2756.06] Yeah, +[2756.06 --> 2756.72] I don't think so. +[2757.18 --> 2758.14] You heard it here first. +[2758.62 --> 2759.50] Ascertain for certain. +[2761.44 --> 2761.80] And +[2761.80 --> 2763.58] Mars is an extremely +[2763.58 --> 2764.44] volatile place. +[2764.62 --> 2764.68] Like, +[2764.76 --> 2765.62] it's going to be hard +[2765.62 --> 2766.24] for that kind of stuff +[2766.24 --> 2766.80] to survive, +[2767.22 --> 2770.38] which makes sense, +[2770.46 --> 2771.10] which is why +[2771.10 --> 2771.82] a lot of people think +[2771.82 --> 2772.38] that it's probably +[2772.38 --> 2773.10] from asteroids. +[2773.62 --> 2773.96] But, +[2774.04 --> 2774.74] there's also +[2774.74 --> 2775.88] the interesting things +[2775.88 --> 2777.10] of like the methane gas +[2777.10 --> 2778.16] very specifically. +[2778.38 --> 2778.46] So, +[2778.54 --> 2779.30] it could be spurting up +[2779.30 --> 2780.12] from below the surface. +[2780.26 --> 2781.32] That could be something there. +[2781.46 --> 2782.02] Pretty interesting. +[2782.24 --> 2782.48] Yeah, +[2782.48 --> 2783.68] it's exciting. +[2784.22 --> 2784.52] I mean, +[2785.10 --> 2785.56] who knows? +[2785.74 --> 2786.06] Okay. +[2786.56 --> 2787.26] I just kind of wanted +[2787.26 --> 2788.08] to have this topic in here +[2788.08 --> 2788.92] so people could hear about it +[2788.92 --> 2789.56] and research it more +[2789.56 --> 2789.96] on their own. +[2790.00 --> 2791.36] If Musk gets his way +[2791.36 --> 2792.14] and sends like, +[2792.20 --> 2792.96] how many people do you want +[2792.96 --> 2793.16] to send? +[2793.22 --> 2793.66] Like a million? +[2793.76 --> 2794.62] You want to send a million +[2794.62 --> 2796.02] and I know it's going to be like +[2796.02 --> 2797.32] spurt, spurt, spurt, spurt +[2797.32 --> 2797.86] and then it's supposed +[2797.86 --> 2799.40] to be bigger ones after that. +[2801.60 --> 2802.52] Not all at once? +[2802.64 --> 2803.90] The end goal is having +[2803.90 --> 2805.38] like a million people on Mars. +[2805.60 --> 2805.92] Okay. +[2806.12 --> 2806.90] Would you go to Mars? +[2807.96 --> 2809.54] I haven't talked to you about this. +[2809.70 --> 2810.30] Have I talked to you about this? +[2810.32 --> 2810.84] I don't think so. +[2810.84 --> 2813.28] I have tried contacting him +[2813.28 --> 2814.32] to see if I could sign up. +[2814.82 --> 2815.20] Okay. +[2815.46 --> 2815.82] So. +[2816.28 --> 2817.62] Is there any reason +[2817.62 --> 2819.20] that Linus Media Group +[2819.20 --> 2820.64] couldn't run from Mars? +[2820.84 --> 2821.46] What would be the... +[2821.46 --> 2822.50] By the time that he put +[2822.50 --> 2823.40] a million people there, +[2823.46 --> 2823.72] Yeah. +[2824.30 --> 2825.72] It would probably be fine. +[2826.18 --> 2827.60] Like what kind of... +[2827.60 --> 2828.04] Because okay, +[2828.12 --> 2829.42] like all we have really +[2829.42 --> 2830.86] have to do is we would have to... +[2830.86 --> 2831.48] Oh yeah, +[2831.58 --> 2832.30] if we're going to make videos +[2832.30 --> 2833.26] about the latest CPU, +[2833.38 --> 2834.18] that'll be a bit of an issue. +[2835.32 --> 2836.20] Not necessarily +[2836.20 --> 2837.28] because you know that like +[2837.28 --> 2838.36] that robot thing +[2838.36 --> 2839.08] that kind of rolls around +[2839.08 --> 2839.88] and has the screen on it? +[2840.08 --> 2840.40] Mm-hmm. +[2840.46 --> 2842.14] Just get way better versions of that. +[2844.52 --> 2845.36] VR suits, +[2845.36 --> 2848.28] wear like that control VR thing +[2848.28 --> 2849.08] that we had +[2849.08 --> 2850.50] and then just go in little rooms +[2850.50 --> 2852.32] and you can just do things on Earth. +[2853.48 --> 2854.58] It'll be latency issues, +[2855.24 --> 2855.88] but it could work. +[2856.14 --> 2857.72] Posted by Dirty Harry on the forum, +[2857.80 --> 2859.68] the original article here +[2859.68 --> 2860.92] is from Mashable.com. +[2860.92 --> 2862.98] Double amputee controls +[2862.98 --> 2865.12] bionic arms with his mines. +[2865.28 --> 2866.94] The best segue that ever happened +[2866.94 --> 2868.28] in the history of WAN show. +[2868.88 --> 2871.36] So this is pretty freaking cool. +[2871.50 --> 2872.86] Now to be clear, guys, +[2873.50 --> 2875.24] it's not... +[2875.24 --> 2877.50] He's not going to be playing racquetball yet. +[2877.64 --> 2878.44] Did you post the link already? +[2878.70 --> 2878.90] Nope. +[2879.08 --> 2879.30] Got it. +[2879.30 --> 2881.18] He's not going to be playing racquetball +[2881.18 --> 2882.14] anytime soon, +[2882.28 --> 2882.98] but... +[2882.98 --> 2883.80] And like he kind of... +[2883.80 --> 2885.90] He has to move the shoulder, +[2886.12 --> 2887.02] then the elbow, +[2887.38 --> 2888.32] then the wrist. +[2888.54 --> 2890.72] Which I wanted to bring this up. +[2890.84 --> 2893.68] In like a design standpoint, +[2893.82 --> 2895.10] that's actually a really good place +[2895.10 --> 2895.80] to start from, +[2896.10 --> 2897.00] because then you just start +[2897.00 --> 2898.44] making things more fluid. +[2899.14 --> 2900.76] Having all of those already working +[2900.76 --> 2901.68] is extremely important. +[2902.46 --> 2904.32] It's required extensive training. +[2904.60 --> 2907.76] It is not by any means finished yet, +[2908.20 --> 2910.08] but the team is hoping +[2910.08 --> 2913.06] that they will be able to send him home +[2913.06 --> 2916.12] with a pair of working arms +[2916.12 --> 2917.84] by the end of this project, +[2918.00 --> 2920.44] which is amazing. +[2921.38 --> 2924.58] I mean, this is some Star Wars stuff right here. +[2924.58 --> 2926.52] This is like Mark Hamill, +[2926.70 --> 2930.80] end of Empire Strikes Back type stuff going on here. +[2933.12 --> 2934.24] Pretty freaking cool. +[2934.68 --> 2935.88] Absolutely incredible. +[2936.08 --> 2937.34] And he's moving it with his mind. +[2937.48 --> 2940.06] He had to undergo some painful stuff +[2940.06 --> 2941.14] in order to make this happen. +[2941.14 --> 2941.64] What do they call it? +[2941.64 --> 2942.90] He had to reawaken nerves and stuff. +[2942.90 --> 2944.12] He had to re-enervation or something. +[2944.12 --> 2944.92] He had to re-enervation. +[2945.02 --> 2945.58] Yeah, I think so. +[2945.68 --> 2946.60] It sounds awful. +[2946.76 --> 2947.20] It does. +[2947.82 --> 2949.72] It does not sound good at all. +[2950.06 --> 2951.60] And they had to also... +[2951.60 --> 2952.38] Where is it? +[2952.64 --> 2953.40] No, no, no, no, no. +[2953.82 --> 2954.84] Yeah, reawaken, +[2955.22 --> 2957.24] but there's a different word for it. +[2957.84 --> 2958.76] Re-enervating. +[2959.00 --> 2959.16] Yeah. +[2959.16 --> 2959.60] There we go. +[2959.60 --> 2962.48] Yeah, it's no good. +[2962.54 --> 2963.82] And they're using some of the nerve endings +[2963.82 --> 2965.12] from his chest as well. +[2965.52 --> 2966.46] They've brought some over, +[2966.62 --> 2968.30] which that probably wasn't exactly +[2968.30 --> 2969.80] a fantastic process either. +[2970.16 --> 2970.56] Yeah. +[2970.66 --> 2971.88] So, I don't know. +[2971.96 --> 2975.28] Yeah, what a horrifying process it is right now. +[2975.48 --> 2976.12] Like, can you... +[2976.12 --> 2977.92] I mean, think of the implications +[2977.92 --> 2979.46] for generations to come, though. +[2979.50 --> 2981.14] That's fantastic. +[2981.54 --> 2983.36] Yeah, this is probably +[2983.36 --> 2984.68] one of the most important things +[2984.68 --> 2985.38] going on right now. +[2985.50 --> 2986.38] I know there's stuff +[2986.38 --> 2987.62] that we're probably going to talk about later +[2987.62 --> 2988.76] with, like, the Hyperloop +[2988.76 --> 2989.96] and some other really cool things, +[2990.28 --> 2991.84] but being able to re-enable people +[2991.84 --> 2993.66] that have lost or damaged limbs +[2993.66 --> 2996.10] very heavily is really cool. +[2996.18 --> 2997.20] And think of the implications +[2997.20 --> 2999.86] for just people who haven't lost limbs +[2999.86 --> 3001.20] but want, like, better limbs. +[3001.38 --> 3001.60] Yep. +[3001.76 --> 3002.04] Yeah. +[3002.38 --> 3003.60] Because this is going to help stuff +[3003.60 --> 3004.38] like exosuits. +[3005.06 --> 3005.54] Oh, yeah. +[3006.38 --> 3006.74] Exosuits. +[3007.10 --> 3007.98] Happened in my lifetime. +[3008.00 --> 3008.72] Exosuit dance? +[3009.50 --> 3011.12] Well, they're already kind of a thing. +[3011.14 --> 3012.28] There is an exosuit dance. +[3013.38 --> 3013.78] Oh. +[3015.94 --> 3016.30] Oh. +[3017.10 --> 3018.04] Exosuits are already a thing, +[3018.12 --> 3019.20] but they can get a lot better. +[3019.50 --> 3020.38] Speaking of things +[3020.38 --> 3021.48] that can get a lot better, +[3021.60 --> 3023.08] your shaving experience. +[3023.20 --> 3023.48] Yes. +[3023.56 --> 3024.80] One of our sponsors today +[3024.80 --> 3026.12] is Dollar Shave Club. +[3026.24 --> 3027.58] Visit dollarshaveclub.com +[3027.58 --> 3028.26] slash Linus. +[3028.36 --> 3030.08] I butchered the URL, +[3030.40 --> 3030.94] but that's okay +[3030.94 --> 3031.66] because you can see it. +[3031.92 --> 3033.28] Visit dollarshaveclub.com +[3033.28 --> 3033.98] slash Linus +[3033.98 --> 3035.48] in order to start shaving time +[3035.48 --> 3036.52] and shaving money. +[3036.94 --> 3038.18] You get high-quality razors +[3038.18 --> 3039.86] delivered directly to your door +[3039.86 --> 3040.56] once a month. +[3040.56 --> 3041.98] And I'm using a Jedi mind trick +[3041.98 --> 3042.70] on you right now. +[3043.10 --> 3044.18] Join Dollar Shave Club. +[3044.70 --> 3045.70] They don't really talk like that. +[3045.70 --> 3046.62] These are the razors +[3046.62 --> 3047.30] you're looking for. +[3047.72 --> 3049.04] You want Dollar Shave Club +[3049.04 --> 3050.56] to send the postman +[3050.56 --> 3051.38] or lady +[3051.38 --> 3052.54] to your house +[3052.54 --> 3053.22] once a month +[3053.22 --> 3054.34] to bring you razors +[3054.34 --> 3055.62] and shaving butter +[3055.62 --> 3058.12] and one-wiped Charlie's. +[3058.16 --> 3059.12] They're peppermint-scented +[3059.12 --> 3060.18] butt wipes for men. +[3060.18 --> 3061.96] I mean, you know... +[3061.96 --> 3063.26] That is not the easiest thing to say. +[3063.44 --> 3065.08] The thing about the peppermint-scented +[3065.08 --> 3066.14] butt wipes for men, +[3066.64 --> 3067.76] they're pre-moistened +[3067.76 --> 3070.38] and I don't understand +[3070.38 --> 3072.44] why we don't already use +[3072.44 --> 3073.76] moistened butt wipes. +[3074.26 --> 3075.16] Quite frankly, +[3075.42 --> 3077.32] you can do a much better job that way. +[3077.52 --> 3078.42] Toilet paper's actually, like, +[3078.44 --> 3079.70] not a super great... +[3079.70 --> 3080.18] That's why, like, +[3080.24 --> 3081.44] not the whole world uses it. +[3082.12 --> 3082.46] Yeah. +[3083.20 --> 3084.26] So, um... +[3084.26 --> 3084.98] So there you go. +[3085.10 --> 3086.16] Dollar Shave Club's +[3086.16 --> 3087.40] flushable butt wipes, +[3087.94 --> 3089.56] an advancement in technology +[3089.56 --> 3091.26] that we can really... +[3091.26 --> 3094.26] get our... +[3094.26 --> 3094.86] faces in. +[3094.86 --> 3095.18] Butts behind. +[3095.40 --> 3096.08] Butts behind. +[3096.18 --> 3096.64] Thank you. +[3096.94 --> 3097.82] Or faces in. +[3097.96 --> 3098.30] Or both. +[3099.00 --> 3099.68] All right. +[3099.78 --> 3100.34] So moving on +[3100.34 --> 3101.88] to our next sponsor. +[3102.52 --> 3102.82] Aha! +[3103.12 --> 3103.44] Yes! +[3103.58 --> 3105.14] Intel Holiday Deal. +[3105.28 --> 3106.08] So you're going to want to visit +[3106.08 --> 3108.04] the link in the Linus Tech Tips forum, +[3108.16 --> 3108.96] which I will go ahead +[3108.96 --> 3111.42] and I will post somewhere. +[3111.44 --> 3112.22] Trying to find it. +[3112.78 --> 3113.76] Copy link URL. +[3115.60 --> 3116.36] Maybe if I... +[3116.36 --> 3117.28] I got it, I got it, I got it. +[3117.30 --> 3117.54] Okay. +[3117.66 --> 3119.06] Okay, so you're going to want to visit there, +[3119.14 --> 3121.34] but Intel has lots of holiday deals +[3121.34 --> 3122.80] going on for the holidays. +[3123.04 --> 3124.08] Deals on processors, +[3124.32 --> 3125.42] NUCs, and SSDs. +[3125.44 --> 3127.24] They have had some crazy crap +[3127.24 --> 3128.90] going on on SSDs. +[3129.26 --> 3130.28] During Black Friday, +[3130.40 --> 3132.20] did you see the 730 deals on Newegg? +[3132.20 --> 3133.16] I almost bought those. +[3133.52 --> 3134.52] That was ridiculous. +[3134.82 --> 3136.34] If it wasn't for the Canadian version +[3136.34 --> 3138.02] of Newegg having it not nearly +[3138.02 --> 3138.82] as cool of a deal, +[3138.96 --> 3139.90] I probably would have done it. +[3139.90 --> 3140.88] That was, what was it, +[3140.92 --> 3142.92] like 99 for a 240 gig +[3142.92 --> 3143.88] or something like 120? +[3143.88 --> 3144.88] It was essentially 100 bucks +[3144.88 --> 3145.86] for a 240 gig. +[3146.20 --> 3146.38] Yeah. +[3146.38 --> 3148.04] And then in Canada, +[3148.12 --> 3148.98] it was like 160. +[3149.36 --> 3150.60] So they've got some, +[3150.60 --> 3151.78] they've got some Newegg deals +[3151.78 --> 3153.38] like the $110 off, +[3153.44 --> 3154.78] the 4930K, +[3154.96 --> 3155.80] which is actually +[3155.80 --> 3157.44] an outstanding processor. +[3157.68 --> 3158.88] And given that you don't have +[3158.88 --> 3160.68] to invest in DDR4 memory, +[3160.68 --> 3163.98] potentially a way better option +[3163.98 --> 3164.50] right now +[3164.50 --> 3165.88] if you're looking to go 6 core +[3165.88 --> 3168.10] versus the 5930K +[3168.10 --> 3169.74] or even the 5820K. +[3170.58 --> 3171.82] They've got 50 bucks off +[3171.82 --> 3172.86] the 4970K +[3172.86 --> 3174.00] and over 50% off +[3174.00 --> 3174.74] some SSDs, +[3174.80 --> 3175.68] including the 240 gig +[3175.68 --> 3176.28] 730 series. +[3176.34 --> 3176.62] Look at this, +[3176.64 --> 3177.30] I'm reading my notes. +[3177.74 --> 3178.94] I already knew +[3178.94 --> 3179.92] about that deal, dog. +[3180.06 --> 3181.42] So these deals are running +[3181.42 --> 3183.78] until December the 20th. +[3183.92 --> 3184.36] Also, +[3184.58 --> 3185.44] I have another link +[3185.44 --> 3185.94] for you guys. +[3186.02 --> 3186.74] You should check out +[3186.74 --> 3187.42] a giveaway +[3187.42 --> 3188.14] that we're running +[3188.14 --> 3189.58] from Intel right now. +[3190.52 --> 3191.66] Copy link URL. +[3192.32 --> 3193.32] I hate it when it's not +[3193.32 --> 3194.14] just the normal +[3194.14 --> 3195.20] contextual menu. +[3195.36 --> 3195.96] Thank you for that. +[3196.28 --> 3196.62] All right. +[3196.66 --> 3198.08] So we're also giving away +[3198.08 --> 3200.22] two core i7 5820K +[3200.22 --> 3201.44] six core processors. +[3201.60 --> 3202.02] So go ahead +[3202.02 --> 3203.08] and head over to that thread +[3203.08 --> 3204.42] for the full details +[3204.42 --> 3205.42] and to get signed up +[3205.42 --> 3207.70] for a chance to win. +[3208.02 --> 3209.10] So thank you again +[3209.10 --> 3210.00] to our sponsors, +[3210.20 --> 3211.26] Dollar Shave Club +[3211.26 --> 3212.94] and, you know, +[3213.52 --> 3214.06] and Intel. +[3214.46 --> 3215.86] So Dollar Shave Club, +[3216.38 --> 3217.12] what if they had +[3217.12 --> 3218.32] Dollar Shave Club +[3218.32 --> 3219.80] and they deliver you +[3219.80 --> 3221.46] a new slave +[3221.46 --> 3222.36] every month? +[3223.58 --> 3224.76] Like old school +[3224.76 --> 3225.54] slave hard drive? +[3226.50 --> 3226.80] Yeah. +[3227.22 --> 3227.86] No, no. +[3228.10 --> 3229.02] Or what if they had, +[3229.38 --> 3230.46] what if you had, +[3230.68 --> 3231.76] what if on the first month, +[3231.76 --> 3232.28] I don't know if I like +[3232.28 --> 3232.76] where this is going. +[3232.76 --> 3233.84] What if on the first month +[3233.84 --> 3235.16] they send you your slave +[3235.16 --> 3236.30] and then every month +[3236.30 --> 3237.58] they send you a new club +[3237.58 --> 3238.56] to hit them with +[3238.56 --> 3240.00] because you wear it out. +[3240.54 --> 3241.48] Dollar Shave Club. +[3241.86 --> 3243.52] I don't like this conversation. +[3244.24 --> 3245.44] I don't think you should be able +[3245.44 --> 3247.00] to weigh in on political topics anymore. +[3247.12 --> 3247.32] Therefore, +[3247.40 --> 3247.94] I think I win +[3247.94 --> 3248.78] the Sony conversation. +[3249.58 --> 3250.38] I am a nun. +[3250.60 --> 3251.98] Oh, backwrecked. +[3252.00 --> 3252.76] I can't be wrong. +[3253.98 --> 3254.38] Okay, +[3254.52 --> 3255.70] this is not going somewhere +[3255.70 --> 3256.86] where I want to continue talking. +[3257.22 --> 3258.68] Elon Musk likes Hyperloops. +[3258.68 --> 3260.12] We're going to go there now. +[3262.12 --> 3263.48] Hyperloop train research +[3263.48 --> 3264.60] has been progressing. +[3264.78 --> 3266.08] It hasn't just been sitting there. +[3266.46 --> 3267.42] A company named +[3267.42 --> 3269.20] Hyperloop Transport Technologies +[3269.20 --> 3270.30] or HTT +[3270.30 --> 3271.60] has gone together +[3271.60 --> 3273.42] with UCLA students +[3273.42 --> 3275.30] and some actually +[3275.30 --> 3276.58] pretty intense engineers +[3276.58 --> 3277.74] from places like Boeing, +[3278.12 --> 3278.58] Airbus, +[3278.92 --> 3279.48] and SpaceX +[3279.48 --> 3280.34] who are all willing +[3280.34 --> 3281.48] to work on Hyperloop +[3281.48 --> 3282.88] in their spare time +[3282.88 --> 3283.96] in exchange for +[3283.96 --> 3285.88] some pretty solid stock options. +[3286.40 --> 3286.74] So, +[3286.94 --> 3287.98] they've got a lot +[3287.98 --> 3289.18] of the proof of concepts down. +[3289.28 --> 3290.04] They've got the map +[3290.04 --> 3290.88] of where they would want it +[3290.88 --> 3291.54] to go down. +[3292.82 --> 3294.14] They're getting close +[3294.14 --> 3294.84] to the idea +[3294.84 --> 3295.74] of making a prototype. +[3296.02 --> 3296.52] They're not like, +[3296.62 --> 3297.44] we are making a prototype, +[3297.66 --> 3298.80] but they're getting close to that. +[3298.80 --> 3300.08] one of the things +[3300.08 --> 3300.60] that they're still +[3300.60 --> 3301.76] kind of fighting with +[3301.76 --> 3302.48] is how they're going to do +[3302.48 --> 3303.40] the actual train. +[3303.52 --> 3304.36] The tube itself +[3304.36 --> 3305.70] is not that much +[3305.70 --> 3306.58] of a question anymore. +[3307.10 --> 3308.40] And it's kind of +[3308.40 --> 3308.98] in between +[3308.98 --> 3310.92] like air compressors +[3310.92 --> 3312.32] and an air hockey style +[3312.32 --> 3313.74] pushing of the trains, +[3313.86 --> 3314.52] which is what +[3314.52 --> 3316.34] Musk has suggested, +[3316.76 --> 3319.18] or magnetic levitation, +[3319.36 --> 3319.90] which is what a lot +[3319.90 --> 3320.38] of the engineers +[3320.38 --> 3321.46] on the project right now +[3321.46 --> 3322.08] are suggesting. +[3322.32 --> 3322.50] So, +[3323.02 --> 3323.72] really cool. +[3323.90 --> 3324.18] Apparently, +[3324.48 --> 3324.66] sorry. +[3325.06 --> 3325.88] I was just going to say +[3325.88 --> 3326.72] the speed that they're +[3326.72 --> 3327.74] expected to travel at +[3327.74 --> 3328.80] is about Mach 1. +[3329.16 --> 3329.42] So, +[3329.52 --> 3330.32] that's about the speed +[3330.32 --> 3330.82] of sound, +[3331.08 --> 3332.82] which is pretty fantastic +[3332.82 --> 3334.02] if you want to get from, +[3334.10 --> 3334.28] you know, +[3334.32 --> 3334.74] I don't know, +[3334.96 --> 3336.52] Boston to somewhere +[3336.52 --> 3338.10] geographically relevant +[3338.10 --> 3338.80] to Boston +[3338.80 --> 3340.24] because I'm not that good +[3340.24 --> 3341.34] with my U.S. geography. +[3341.74 --> 3342.06] Yeah! +[3344.10 --> 3344.88] Investors will need +[3344.88 --> 3346.08] to find and raise +[3346.08 --> 3348.28] six to ten billion dollars +[3348.28 --> 3349.58] to build the first +[3349.58 --> 3350.76] 400 mile loop, +[3350.86 --> 3351.48] and they would obviously +[3351.48 --> 3352.10] have to prototype +[3352.10 --> 3352.82] before that. +[3353.56 --> 3354.44] Extremely expensive, +[3354.92 --> 3355.66] but this could be +[3355.66 --> 3356.58] what we're looking into +[3356.58 --> 3358.46] in terms of future +[3358.46 --> 3359.22] mass transportation. +[3359.68 --> 3359.86] Hey, +[3359.96 --> 3361.10] Robbie G's with me. +[3361.20 --> 3362.22] A slave is for life, +[3362.30 --> 3363.22] not just for Christmas. +[3363.66 --> 3365.76] Can we not do this +[3365.76 --> 3366.36] at all, +[3366.58 --> 3366.90] please? +[3367.20 --> 3368.62] Let's just move on. +[3369.66 --> 3370.14] Oh, +[3370.22 --> 3370.88] our next topic +[3370.88 --> 3372.06] was going to be Ubisoft +[3372.06 --> 3373.00] and then the Mars Rover. +[3373.14 --> 3373.90] Now it's Eric Schmidt +[3373.90 --> 3374.62] being weird. +[3374.74 --> 3375.02] Oh, +[3375.16 --> 3376.02] what is he thinking? +[3376.16 --> 3376.28] So, +[3376.36 --> 3376.82] this was posted +[3376.82 --> 3377.66] by Spider Loser +[3377.66 --> 3378.12] on the forum. +[3378.22 --> 3378.74] This is actually +[3378.74 --> 3380.30] a topic from last week. +[3380.72 --> 3381.44] Let's go ahead +[3381.44 --> 3382.34] and fire this up. +[3382.66 --> 3384.06] But Eric Schmidt, +[3384.06 --> 3386.48] so one of the founders +[3386.48 --> 3387.60] of Google, +[3388.84 --> 3390.14] so chairman +[3390.14 --> 3391.08] and former CEO +[3391.08 --> 3391.64] of Google, +[3391.96 --> 3392.88] basically came out +[3392.88 --> 3393.70] and said he believes +[3393.70 --> 3394.46] that concerns +[3394.46 --> 3396.80] of machines stealing jobs +[3396.80 --> 3398.28] and taking over the world +[3398.28 --> 3399.32] is unwarranted. +[3399.32 --> 3399.80] Now, +[3399.86 --> 3401.20] I think taking over the world +[3401.20 --> 3402.50] is a bit of a stretch, +[3402.96 --> 3403.84] but to imagine +[3403.84 --> 3404.56] that machines +[3404.56 --> 3406.10] aren't going to steal jobs +[3406.10 --> 3407.20] is asinine. +[3407.40 --> 3407.48] Like, +[3407.54 --> 3408.92] he's a super smart guy, +[3409.06 --> 3410.18] so he must know +[3410.18 --> 3410.94] something that he's +[3410.94 --> 3411.80] not telling us +[3411.80 --> 3412.34] because, +[3412.96 --> 3413.44] um, +[3413.90 --> 3414.22] okay, +[3414.32 --> 3414.90] so there were +[3414.90 --> 3415.62] a couple other things +[3415.62 --> 3415.94] he said. +[3416.02 --> 3416.70] So number one +[3416.70 --> 3417.78] is that +[3417.78 --> 3418.30] they, +[3418.58 --> 3419.02] the scientists, +[3419.14 --> 3420.08] so scientists developed, +[3420.22 --> 3420.94] this was an experiment +[3420.94 --> 3421.76] from a few years ago +[3421.76 --> 3422.62] where scientists developed +[3422.62 --> 3423.52] a neural network +[3423.52 --> 3425.18] and fed it 11,000 hours +[3425.18 --> 3425.98] of YouTube videos +[3425.98 --> 3427.06] to see what it could learn. +[3427.42 --> 3428.44] It discovered +[3428.44 --> 3429.82] the concept of cat, +[3430.00 --> 3430.40] apparently, +[3430.86 --> 3431.46] and he goes, +[3431.62 --> 3432.42] I'm not quite sure +[3432.42 --> 3433.44] what to say about that +[3433.44 --> 3434.92] except that's where we are. +[3435.28 --> 3436.26] Except that's +[3436.26 --> 3437.26] not where we are. +[3437.38 --> 3438.44] That was a few years ago +[3438.44 --> 3439.56] and it was a random experiment +[3439.56 --> 3440.60] and the fact that +[3440.60 --> 3441.32] it just figured out +[3441.32 --> 3442.34] the concept of cat. +[3442.42 --> 3443.80] It's freaking amazing. +[3444.04 --> 3445.48] Do you not get that? +[3445.60 --> 3446.70] That's crazy. +[3447.74 --> 3448.72] And 11,000 hours +[3448.72 --> 3449.20] of YouTube videos, +[3449.38 --> 3450.20] the computer didn't have to, +[3450.20 --> 3450.34] like, +[3450.42 --> 3451.36] sit in front of a screen +[3451.36 --> 3451.82] and go like, +[3451.88 --> 3452.24] oh, +[3452.52 --> 3453.30] these are interesting +[3453.30 --> 3453.98] YouTube videos. +[3454.06 --> 3454.72] It's a computer. +[3455.08 --> 3455.68] It probably did it, +[3455.78 --> 3455.84] like, +[3456.02 --> 3457.18] crazy fast. +[3457.40 --> 3457.74] And it learned +[3457.74 --> 3458.74] what a cat is. +[3459.02 --> 3459.88] That's nuts. +[3460.94 --> 3462.02] This is super cool. +[3462.28 --> 3462.78] He tries to, +[3462.86 --> 3463.06] sorry, +[3463.22 --> 3464.54] I'm very heated +[3464.54 --> 3465.30] about this topic. +[3465.30 --> 3466.18] And there's another +[3466.18 --> 3467.54] complete BS thing. +[3467.54 --> 3467.76] People have been concerned +[3467.76 --> 3468.40] about machines +[3468.40 --> 3469.30] taking over the world +[3469.30 --> 3469.98] for centuries. +[3470.42 --> 3470.90] Go back +[3470.90 --> 3472.76] to the history +[3472.76 --> 3473.92] of the loom. +[3474.42 --> 3475.20] There was absolute +[3475.20 --> 3476.30] dislocation, +[3476.46 --> 3477.26] but I think all of us +[3477.26 --> 3477.98] are better off +[3477.98 --> 3479.40] with more mechanized ways +[3479.40 --> 3480.66] of getting clothes made. +[3480.80 --> 3480.90] Yes. +[3480.90 --> 3482.50] Not even remotely comparable. +[3483.52 --> 3483.96] God. +[3484.82 --> 3485.26] Sorry. +[3485.46 --> 3486.08] You can keep going +[3486.08 --> 3486.54] if you want. +[3486.90 --> 3487.06] No, +[3487.12 --> 3488.28] that was pretty much it. +[3488.28 --> 3489.06] Very not stoked. +[3489.22 --> 3490.28] I think it's ridiculous. +[3490.56 --> 3490.80] I mean, +[3491.00 --> 3491.20] to, +[3491.32 --> 3491.72] to, +[3491.86 --> 3493.80] to imagine +[3493.80 --> 3494.60] for a second. +[3494.60 --> 3494.84] Okay. +[3495.10 --> 3495.36] Okay. +[3495.46 --> 3495.66] Okay. +[3495.66 --> 3495.92] Okay. +[3495.98 --> 3496.92] So you could make +[3496.92 --> 3497.60] the argument +[3497.60 --> 3499.74] that more people, +[3499.92 --> 3499.96] like, +[3500.04 --> 3500.28] okay, +[3500.36 --> 3500.76] more, +[3500.92 --> 3501.82] just more wealth +[3501.82 --> 3502.78] in general +[3502.78 --> 3503.10] and, +[3503.16 --> 3503.84] and less, +[3504.28 --> 3505.32] less need +[3505.32 --> 3506.56] to pursue +[3506.56 --> 3507.76] the essentials, +[3507.76 --> 3508.14] you know, +[3508.14 --> 3508.76] your food +[3508.76 --> 3509.98] and your shelter +[3509.98 --> 3511.16] and your clean water +[3511.16 --> 3512.14] and all that kind of stuff. +[3512.14 --> 3512.42] So, +[3512.72 --> 3513.92] so making that stuff +[3513.92 --> 3515.48] much easier to access +[3515.48 --> 3516.90] opens up the doors +[3516.90 --> 3517.56] for, +[3517.98 --> 3518.50] let's say, +[3518.66 --> 3519.58] careers like +[3519.58 --> 3521.44] making YouTube videos +[3521.44 --> 3521.86] about, +[3522.06 --> 3522.56] you know, +[3522.84 --> 3523.40] tech crap +[3523.40 --> 3524.46] that quite frankly, +[3524.74 --> 3526.04] a lot of what we talk about +[3526.04 --> 3528.26] nobody really needs. +[3528.30 --> 3528.92] It's just stuff +[3528.92 --> 3529.58] that we want +[3529.58 --> 3530.24] and enjoy +[3530.24 --> 3530.74] and, +[3530.86 --> 3532.14] right. +[3532.30 --> 3532.66] Okay. +[3533.30 --> 3533.74] You're talking about +[3533.74 --> 3534.50] things people don't need +[3534.50 --> 3535.30] where dressed up as girls +[3535.30 --> 3536.38] is not exactly required +[3536.38 --> 3537.28] to advance the. +[3537.28 --> 3537.70] Yeah. +[3537.86 --> 3538.10] Like, +[3538.24 --> 3538.44] okay, +[3538.54 --> 3539.14] so the loom +[3539.14 --> 3540.68] enabled things like clothes +[3540.68 --> 3541.28] to be, +[3541.28 --> 3541.96] or not, +[3542.00 --> 3543.00] not necessarily the loom +[3543.00 --> 3543.48] but more, +[3543.60 --> 3544.68] even more mechanized +[3544.68 --> 3546.28] clothing manufacturing +[3546.28 --> 3546.90] and, +[3546.94 --> 3548.06] and fabric manufacturing +[3548.06 --> 3548.90] enabled us to +[3548.90 --> 3550.76] cheaply buy +[3550.76 --> 3551.38] costumes +[3551.38 --> 3552.12] that are +[3552.12 --> 3553.38] just literally +[3553.38 --> 3554.78] for one time use. +[3554.86 --> 3555.00] Yeah. +[3555.20 --> 3555.58] And, +[3555.64 --> 3556.28] and have it be +[3556.28 --> 3557.10] inexpensive enough +[3557.10 --> 3557.76] that we can afford +[3557.76 --> 3558.42] to do that. +[3558.50 --> 3559.82] But the problem +[3559.82 --> 3562.28] is not a technology problem. +[3562.28 --> 3563.28] It is a societal +[3563.28 --> 3564.82] and a political problem. +[3564.84 --> 3565.12] Yes. +[3565.12 --> 3566.24] That is going to +[3566.24 --> 3567.50] take these people +[3567.50 --> 3568.70] and put them out of jobs. +[3568.96 --> 3569.08] Yep. +[3569.08 --> 3570.18] Because if we just +[3570.18 --> 3570.60] kind of went, +[3570.78 --> 3570.98] yes, +[3570.98 --> 3572.70] we have ample resources +[3572.70 --> 3574.46] and everything is fine. +[3574.86 --> 3575.80] Everyone should just +[3575.80 --> 3576.64] have food +[3576.64 --> 3577.90] and whether it's a stamp +[3577.90 --> 3578.42] program +[3578.42 --> 3579.62] or whether it's +[3579.62 --> 3580.84] cash money program +[3580.84 --> 3581.96] or however it works, +[3582.26 --> 3583.26] if there was a system +[3583.26 --> 3583.86] in place, +[3583.98 --> 3585.20] this wouldn't be a problem. +[3585.30 --> 3585.98] The problem is that +[3585.98 --> 3586.90] there is no system +[3586.90 --> 3587.40] in place +[3587.40 --> 3588.82] and people will +[3588.82 --> 3590.82] lose their jobs. +[3590.98 --> 3591.54] And all we've seen +[3591.54 --> 3592.24] is the, +[3592.24 --> 3592.62] the, +[3592.62 --> 3593.34] the wealth gap +[3593.34 --> 3594.58] increasing over the past +[3594.58 --> 3595.60] years to degrees +[3595.60 --> 3596.86] which are absolutely ridiculous. +[3596.86 --> 3598.74] stuff like the loom +[3598.74 --> 3599.86] was able to augment +[3599.86 --> 3600.52] workers +[3600.52 --> 3601.32] and help them +[3601.32 --> 3602.68] be much more efficient +[3602.68 --> 3604.16] which did reduce jobs +[3604.16 --> 3605.60] necessarily in that field +[3605.60 --> 3607.40] but also at a time +[3607.40 --> 3608.20] when we needed +[3608.20 --> 3608.88] labor workers +[3608.88 --> 3609.96] in other areas. +[3610.38 --> 3611.68] What AI is going to do +[3611.68 --> 3612.58] is completely remove +[3612.58 --> 3613.82] the need +[3613.82 --> 3615.90] in a vast amount +[3615.90 --> 3616.40] of industries +[3616.40 --> 3617.48] to the point of +[3617.48 --> 3618.78] basically everything +[3618.78 --> 3620.36] at a certain degree. +[3620.72 --> 3621.00] They've, +[3621.00 --> 3621.70] they've already proved +[3621.70 --> 3622.34] that they can replace +[3622.34 --> 3623.48] some pretty crazy stuff +[3623.48 --> 3624.52] which you wouldn't expect. +[3624.52 --> 3626.34] even just the transportation +[3626.34 --> 3627.98] industry as a whole. +[3628.36 --> 3629.58] The entire thing +[3629.58 --> 3631.38] is extremely close +[3631.38 --> 3631.80] to being able +[3631.80 --> 3633.02] to be replaced already +[3633.02 --> 3635.34] and that's a huge proportion +[3635.34 --> 3636.64] of even just US jobs. +[3636.66 --> 3636.68] I mean, +[3636.68 --> 3637.74] imagine if next +[3637.74 --> 3638.48] they went after +[3638.48 --> 3639.34] the people who look +[3639.34 --> 3639.84] at animals +[3639.84 --> 3640.50] and sort them +[3640.50 --> 3641.06] into which ones +[3641.06 --> 3641.52] are cats. +[3646.72 --> 3647.50] They taught it +[3647.50 --> 3648.40] what a cat was. +[3648.54 --> 3649.98] That's actually awesome. +[3650.88 --> 3651.32] So, +[3651.48 --> 3651.80] um, +[3651.90 --> 3652.76] I wasn't being serious +[3652.76 --> 3653.16] about that. +[3653.16 --> 3654.58] I'm not personally +[3654.58 --> 3655.50] like against +[3655.50 --> 3656.78] the idea of AI. +[3657.04 --> 3657.44] I just think +[3657.44 --> 3658.56] we really need +[3658.56 --> 3659.40] to be ready +[3659.40 --> 3660.32] for what it could +[3660.32 --> 3661.40] potentially do +[3661.40 --> 3663.18] to humanity +[3663.18 --> 3664.04] as a whole +[3664.04 --> 3665.24] and I do not +[3665.24 --> 3665.70] think we are. +[3665.82 --> 3666.44] There's countries +[3666.44 --> 3667.36] that are working on it. +[3667.74 --> 3668.60] Last that I've heard, +[3668.76 --> 3669.56] Sweden has started +[3669.56 --> 3670.20] working on +[3670.20 --> 3671.14] different ways +[3671.14 --> 3672.02] that they can augment +[3672.02 --> 3673.56] lower work hours +[3673.56 --> 3674.66] but similar quality +[3674.66 --> 3675.02] of life +[3675.02 --> 3675.74] or the same quality +[3675.74 --> 3676.44] of life for people. +[3676.64 --> 3677.60] Yeah, what was it? +[3677.60 --> 3678.34] Places are working on this. +[3678.40 --> 3681.16] I think it was +[3681.16 --> 3682.10] car manufacturing +[3682.10 --> 3683.20] and I think what happened +[3683.20 --> 3684.02] is they knocked off +[3684.02 --> 3685.10] one whole day a week +[3685.10 --> 3686.08] and then they made it +[3686.08 --> 3686.98] so that it was a less, +[3687.06 --> 3687.82] I think it was six hours +[3687.82 --> 3688.42] instead of eight hour +[3688.42 --> 3688.94] work days +[3688.94 --> 3690.58] but then kept their wages +[3690.58 --> 3691.00] the same +[3691.00 --> 3691.84] and they've actually found +[3691.84 --> 3692.82] that they worked a lot harder +[3692.82 --> 3693.98] when they were at work. +[3694.56 --> 3694.68] Yeah. +[3694.78 --> 3694.92] So, +[3695.08 --> 3696.00] it didn't even change +[3696.00 --> 3697.56] how necessarily productive +[3697.56 --> 3698.00] they were +[3698.00 --> 3699.24] and a lot of car manufacturing +[3699.24 --> 3699.98] is very automated +[3699.98 --> 3700.50] these days. +[3700.60 --> 3701.74] Look at the Tesla factory. +[3702.04 --> 3703.06] The only people working there +[3703.06 --> 3705.32] mainly are checking things, +[3705.40 --> 3706.04] making sure machines +[3706.04 --> 3706.72] are running fine, +[3706.82 --> 3707.56] making sure the process +[3707.56 --> 3708.26] was done okay. +[3708.72 --> 3709.84] It's basically all automated. +[3710.24 --> 3711.20] People need to wake up, +[3711.20 --> 3713.94] realize that a shoot ton of jobs +[3713.94 --> 3715.16] are going to be completely replaced +[3715.16 --> 3718.76] and not augmented and improved +[3718.76 --> 3719.86] and people can go work elsewhere. +[3720.22 --> 3722.24] Where those people would go work elsewhere +[3722.24 --> 3723.76] are also going to be replaced. +[3723.92 --> 3724.16] I mean, +[3724.26 --> 3725.88] imagine this for a second. +[3726.24 --> 3726.26] Like, +[3726.62 --> 3728.32] just for a lark, +[3728.84 --> 3730.08] would you go to +[3730.08 --> 3731.74] a fully automated restaurant +[3731.74 --> 3734.86] where you sit down at your table +[3734.86 --> 3736.74] and the table +[3736.74 --> 3738.92] is like a touchscreen tablet +[3738.92 --> 3740.38] where you use, +[3740.48 --> 3741.50] basically you go like, +[3741.78 --> 3742.04] menu. +[3742.18 --> 3742.98] You drag your menus +[3742.98 --> 3743.86] over to where you are +[3743.86 --> 3744.80] and you kind of go like, +[3744.88 --> 3745.32] blippity bloop, +[3745.36 --> 3746.12] I want this one. +[3746.36 --> 3747.52] Here's some special instructions +[3747.52 --> 3748.22] for the kitchen +[3748.22 --> 3751.22] and you never actually see, +[3751.32 --> 3752.44] you never see anyone +[3752.44 --> 3753.36] come to your table +[3753.36 --> 3754.72] and then the layout +[3754.72 --> 3755.36] of the restaurant, +[3755.52 --> 3755.62] like, +[3755.66 --> 3756.40] they have, +[3756.40 --> 3758.74] like a very rudimentary version of this +[3758.74 --> 3760.48] that I've seen at some sushi places +[3760.48 --> 3761.94] where everything will just be +[3761.94 --> 3762.70] on a little track. +[3762.72 --> 3762.74] Yeah, +[3762.74 --> 3763.76] it like floats by you. +[3763.78 --> 3764.60] And it floats by you +[3764.60 --> 3765.06] and you take it +[3765.06 --> 3767.36] except instead of it being like that +[3767.36 --> 3768.14] where it's just, +[3768.24 --> 3769.08] it's not smart, +[3769.32 --> 3770.90] you have a smart system for that. +[3770.98 --> 3771.90] So the kitchen basically +[3771.90 --> 3772.84] puts it on the thing +[3772.84 --> 3774.12] and then it comes +[3774.12 --> 3775.14] and gets off +[3775.14 --> 3776.14] right next to your table. +[3776.30 --> 3776.88] You bring it, +[3777.08 --> 3777.90] you eat it. +[3778.06 --> 3779.54] Anytime you need an extra drink, +[3779.80 --> 3780.66] you just have like, +[3780.72 --> 3780.88] okay, +[3780.96 --> 3782.40] you have like a spot on the table +[3782.40 --> 3784.48] with a little optical sensor. +[3784.90 --> 3786.02] Anytime the drink is empty, +[3786.02 --> 3787.46] new drink shows up +[3787.46 --> 3788.66] and you put the old one +[3788.66 --> 3789.06] on the cart, +[3789.16 --> 3789.92] it goes back to the kitchen. +[3790.04 --> 3790.20] I mean, +[3790.30 --> 3791.36] I'd be completely okay with it. +[3791.70 --> 3792.82] What I'm going to want to focus on. +[3792.82 --> 3793.78] We have the technology for that today. +[3793.82 --> 3793.98] Yeah, +[3794.04 --> 3794.50] exactly. +[3794.62 --> 3795.46] And people have, +[3795.46 --> 3796.62] that would be the huge industry. +[3796.74 --> 3798.34] People have demonstrated +[3798.34 --> 3800.64] that they hate tipping. +[3801.18 --> 3801.48] Yep. +[3801.74 --> 3804.80] So taking away those jobs, +[3804.92 --> 3806.34] the ones that rely on tips, +[3806.50 --> 3808.86] people are going to embrace that stuff +[3808.86 --> 3810.18] and that is a lot of jobs. +[3810.28 --> 3810.40] I mean, +[3810.48 --> 3812.46] food services here in Vancouver anyway +[3812.46 --> 3813.44] is enormous. +[3814.10 --> 3814.36] Massive. +[3814.90 --> 3815.64] And that's a huge, +[3815.64 --> 3816.92] take out transportation +[3816.92 --> 3817.88] and food services +[3817.88 --> 3819.66] that's potential to be done +[3819.66 --> 3820.72] in the next year or two. +[3820.92 --> 3823.98] That's two massive industries. +[3824.88 --> 3825.96] Like huge. +[3826.22 --> 3826.82] And that's totally true. +[3826.88 --> 3827.78] And people have brought up like, +[3827.78 --> 3829.40] a year or two to have the technology, +[3829.54 --> 3830.58] not a year or two before +[3830.58 --> 3832.40] businesses have invested enough +[3832.40 --> 3832.68] to replace their staff. +[3832.68 --> 3833.48] It'll take quite a while +[3833.48 --> 3834.92] for people to actually invest +[3834.92 --> 3835.34] in everything. +[3835.34 --> 3837.08] But like, +[3837.28 --> 3838.60] what was I trying to say? +[3839.98 --> 3840.34] Crap, +[3840.40 --> 3841.14] I don't remember where I was going. +[3841.16 --> 3842.90] I would call my chain Robo's Diner. +[3843.30 --> 3843.78] Robo's Diner. +[3843.84 --> 3844.06] Right, +[3844.16 --> 3844.40] okay. +[3844.68 --> 3845.68] Talking about Robo's. +[3846.92 --> 3848.06] People talked about +[3848.06 --> 3848.96] when it was starting to happen +[3848.96 --> 3850.02] where they were bringing +[3850.02 --> 3851.34] automated telling machines +[3851.34 --> 3852.62] into grocery stores, +[3852.62 --> 3854.84] which are super not advanced. +[3854.96 --> 3855.84] Apparently there's a restaurant +[3855.84 --> 3856.48] in the Netherlands +[3856.48 --> 3857.58] that uses holograms +[3857.58 --> 3858.08] and touchscreens +[3858.08 --> 3859.66] for ordering food from your table. +[3859.80 --> 3860.24] There you go. +[3860.40 --> 3860.78] So there you go. +[3861.04 --> 3862.06] It's already happening. +[3862.30 --> 3864.14] So automated tellers +[3864.14 --> 3865.76] in places like fast food restaurants +[3865.76 --> 3866.48] and grocery stores, +[3866.56 --> 3868.18] a lot of people were super against. +[3868.48 --> 3870.04] There was a very large uproar. +[3870.18 --> 3870.36] And then, +[3870.42 --> 3871.30] do you even hear that anymore? +[3871.86 --> 3873.10] When I go to the grocery store, +[3873.50 --> 3874.76] I usually actually prefer +[3874.76 --> 3876.16] to go through the automated teller +[3876.16 --> 3876.96] because I'm like, +[3877.04 --> 3878.36] I will go much faster. +[3878.80 --> 3878.94] Yeah. +[3878.98 --> 3879.94] Like if I go to Home Depot, +[3880.08 --> 3880.46] for example, +[3880.46 --> 3881.30] and I have to buy something, +[3881.36 --> 3882.28] I had to go buy screws +[3882.28 --> 3882.84] the other day. +[3882.96 --> 3883.62] And I'm like, +[3883.70 --> 3884.68] I walk up to the thing, +[3884.74 --> 3885.76] there's a line of tellers +[3885.76 --> 3886.88] and there's the automated machine. +[3886.98 --> 3887.30] So I'm like, +[3887.38 --> 3887.62] hmm, +[3887.96 --> 3888.20] well, +[3888.58 --> 3889.36] walk up to the automated machine, +[3889.36 --> 3889.94] scan, +[3890.10 --> 3890.36] scan, +[3890.50 --> 3890.74] pay, +[3890.86 --> 3891.16] gone. +[3891.40 --> 3892.56] It was super fast. +[3892.64 --> 3893.72] I didn't have to deal with anyone +[3893.72 --> 3894.60] who I could tell hated +[3894.60 --> 3895.74] everything that they were doing. +[3895.88 --> 3897.32] Once Apple Pay comes to Canada, +[3897.42 --> 3898.56] it'll be even faster. +[3898.90 --> 3899.32] Scan, +[3899.48 --> 3899.84] scan, +[3900.56 --> 3901.74] touch the thing +[3901.74 --> 3902.58] and then leave. +[3902.64 --> 3903.80] Like even faster. +[3905.68 --> 3906.12] Yeah. +[3906.66 --> 3908.04] A lot of jobs are going to go away. +[3908.04 --> 3910.24] It's not like one industry +[3910.24 --> 3912.00] and one part of one industry. +[3912.26 --> 3913.34] It's everything +[3913.34 --> 3915.32] that will be affected. +[3916.30 --> 3918.20] We should be okay for a while yet. +[3918.20 --> 3920.64] Japan's already working on +[3920.64 --> 3921.54] replacing newscasters. +[3921.54 --> 3921.74] Yeah, +[3921.78 --> 3922.20] I saw that. +[3922.20 --> 3923.42] It's really similar to our jobs. +[3924.08 --> 3924.68] Sort of. +[3924.82 --> 3925.88] We do other things too. +[3926.14 --> 3926.44] I know. +[3927.12 --> 3927.30] Like, +[3927.54 --> 3927.96] okay, +[3928.22 --> 3929.98] newscasters will be a lot easier +[3929.98 --> 3931.32] to replace than entertainers. +[3931.32 --> 3932.06] I'm just saying, +[3932.18 --> 3933.36] it's in the same field. +[3933.44 --> 3934.50] Somewhere in between. +[3934.62 --> 3935.58] It's in the same field. +[3935.70 --> 3936.58] And like one thing that +[3936.58 --> 3937.84] Hollywood's already started working on, +[3937.88 --> 3938.86] like if you remember Tron, +[3939.26 --> 3940.56] they like scanned the dude's face +[3940.56 --> 3941.58] and then barely used them. +[3941.90 --> 3942.12] Yep. +[3942.12 --> 3944.66] And did you see how amazing +[3944.66 --> 3946.88] in Cod Advanced Warfare, +[3947.32 --> 3947.70] crap, +[3947.82 --> 3948.82] I forget his name, +[3949.18 --> 3950.02] The guy that plays the dude. +[3950.02 --> 3950.74] Kaiser Sose. +[3952.00 --> 3952.68] Kaiser Sose. +[3952.90 --> 3953.14] Yeah. +[3953.48 --> 3954.12] Kevin Spacey. +[3954.24 --> 3954.32] Thank you. +[3954.32 --> 3954.80] There you go. +[3955.04 --> 3955.20] Yeah, +[3955.30 --> 3956.16] Kevin Spacey. +[3956.36 --> 3956.52] Yeah, +[3956.52 --> 3957.36] he plays Kaiser Sose. +[3957.56 --> 3957.76] Yeah, +[3957.78 --> 3957.94] no, +[3957.94 --> 3959.42] I was thinking of the actor's name. +[3959.50 --> 3959.66] Yeah, +[3959.74 --> 3959.86] yeah, +[3959.92 --> 3960.04] I just, +[3960.04 --> 3961.24] I couldn't remember. +[3961.62 --> 3962.30] But yeah, +[3962.66 --> 3963.78] Kevin Spacey +[3963.78 --> 3965.56] looked freaking awesome +[3965.56 --> 3966.26] in that game. +[3966.62 --> 3967.32] Ridiculously good. +[3967.32 --> 3969.76] Like that section can be replaced. +[3970.24 --> 3971.16] It can happen. +[3973.14 --> 3973.40] Yeah, +[3973.64 --> 3974.40] some people are like, +[3974.60 --> 3975.96] I've been told by Terran, +[3976.06 --> 3976.30] they're like, +[3976.36 --> 3976.68] oh yeah, +[3976.80 --> 3976.96] well, +[3977.16 --> 3978.62] you'll never be able to automate editing. +[3978.86 --> 3979.36] Like dude, +[3981.20 --> 3981.86] that'll happen. +[3982.14 --> 3983.24] It will take a lot longer. +[3983.26 --> 3984.22] It will take a lot longer. +[3984.40 --> 3984.68] Like, +[3984.86 --> 3987.18] you'll be able to automate the editing +[3987.18 --> 3990.42] of something like a newscast +[3990.42 --> 3991.36] much more easily +[3991.36 --> 3992.78] than you'll be able to automate the editing +[3992.78 --> 3994.48] of something artistic or funny. +[3995.58 --> 3995.60] but, +[3995.64 --> 3997.06] but they've already proven +[3997.06 --> 3997.78] that they can, +[3997.92 --> 3998.30] uh, +[3998.30 --> 3999.88] have robots that can make music +[3999.88 --> 4000.72] and they can, +[4000.84 --> 4002.26] already proven that they can make robots +[4002.26 --> 4002.92] that can create humor. +[4003.90 --> 4004.30] So, +[4004.98 --> 4007.18] it probably won't take as long as expected. +[4008.44 --> 4008.84] Um, +[4009.74 --> 4011.18] something seems to be confusing +[4011.18 --> 4012.10] about the chat. +[4013.10 --> 4013.94] The one's saying F. +[4014.28 --> 4014.62] Okay. +[4014.98 --> 4015.20] Oh, +[4015.20 --> 4015.40] right, +[4015.48 --> 4016.62] press F to pay respects. +[4016.80 --> 4017.78] It's a COD meme. +[4017.90 --> 4018.56] Don't worry about it. +[4019.74 --> 4020.62] Don't worry about it. +[4021.34 --> 4021.60] Oh, +[4021.70 --> 4021.88] okay. +[4023.42 --> 4024.18] COD things. +[4025.30 --> 4025.62] Um, +[4025.64 --> 4025.94] all right, +[4025.94 --> 4027.16] so Microsoft condemns +[4027.16 --> 4027.60] the U.S. +[4027.68 --> 4027.96] government +[4027.96 --> 4029.92] in their latest video ad. +[4030.02 --> 4030.62] We should show this. +[4030.72 --> 4031.70] This is amazing. +[4031.78 --> 4032.30] Have you seen it? +[4032.40 --> 4032.66] Yeah. +[4032.80 --> 4032.96] Oh, +[4032.96 --> 4033.26] God. +[4034.46 --> 4034.70] Whew. +[4035.52 --> 4035.86] They, +[4036.00 --> 4037.42] they did not pull +[4037.42 --> 4038.76] any punches on this one. +[4038.82 --> 4038.94] Oh, +[4038.98 --> 4039.42] unfortunately, +[4039.42 --> 4040.52] it's not captioned. +[4040.52 --> 4040.92] I thought, +[4041.08 --> 4041.68] I seem to, +[4041.80 --> 4042.98] I thought it was. +[4043.32 --> 4043.46] Yeah, +[4043.50 --> 4043.92] there it is. +[4044.28 --> 4045.18] People and organizations +[4045.18 --> 4046.00] rely on the cloud +[4046.00 --> 4046.80] to do many of the things +[4046.80 --> 4047.34] they care about. +[4047.34 --> 4047.74] Basically, +[4047.82 --> 4048.20] it's a whole, +[4048.28 --> 4049.94] a bunch of touchy-feely footage +[4049.94 --> 4050.80] of, +[4050.86 --> 4051.08] you know, +[4051.16 --> 4051.52] people. +[4051.74 --> 4052.54] People are more connected. +[4052.68 --> 4053.44] Things are more efficient. +[4053.56 --> 4054.40] People like the cloud. +[4054.50 --> 4055.22] People use the cloud. +[4055.30 --> 4055.50] Blah, +[4055.50 --> 4055.66] blah, +[4055.66 --> 4055.82] blah, +[4055.82 --> 4056.00] blah, +[4056.00 --> 4056.18] blah. +[4056.40 --> 4057.14] And so, +[4057.22 --> 4057.62] basically, +[4057.74 --> 4058.60] Microsoft's point +[4058.60 --> 4059.44] in this video, +[4059.68 --> 4060.20] very, +[4060.36 --> 4061.84] very aggressively worded, +[4062.08 --> 4063.52] is that just because +[4063.52 --> 4064.40] it's data +[4064.40 --> 4065.78] doesn't mean +[4065.78 --> 4067.16] that it can't be located +[4067.16 --> 4068.74] outside of your jurisdiction. +[4068.74 --> 4069.22] So, +[4069.46 --> 4070.10] the U.S. +[4070.18 --> 4070.44] government +[4070.44 --> 4071.68] is basically trying +[4071.68 --> 4072.50] to get some... +[4072.50 --> 4072.92] Have you posted this? +[4073.10 --> 4073.42] I'm sorry? +[4073.54 --> 4074.28] Have you posted this? +[4074.50 --> 4075.02] Yes. +[4075.62 --> 4075.90] So, +[4075.90 --> 4076.16] the U.S. +[4076.22 --> 4076.90] government is trying +[4076.90 --> 4078.04] to get at some emails +[4078.04 --> 4078.66] that Microsoft +[4078.66 --> 4079.90] is storing on a server +[4079.90 --> 4080.58] in Ireland. +[4080.72 --> 4081.62] And instead of working +[4081.62 --> 4082.94] through the Irish government +[4082.94 --> 4083.88] the way that they +[4083.88 --> 4084.60] would have to do it +[4084.60 --> 4085.74] if there was someone +[4085.74 --> 4087.46] or something physically there... +[4087.46 --> 4088.60] They were holding mail there. +[4088.72 --> 4089.58] They're just trying +[4089.58 --> 4091.18] to get around it +[4091.18 --> 4092.56] and do this whole thing +[4092.56 --> 4092.92] digitally +[4092.92 --> 4093.92] and force Microsoft +[4093.92 --> 4095.76] to submit this data +[4095.76 --> 4096.14] to them. +[4096.16 --> 4096.84] And this is, +[4096.92 --> 4098.44] this is really, +[4098.74 --> 4099.66] really important +[4099.66 --> 4100.62] because +[4100.62 --> 4103.00] whether you're American +[4103.00 --> 4103.60] or not +[4103.60 --> 4104.62] what the U.S. +[4104.68 --> 4105.48] does with respect +[4105.48 --> 4106.50] to internet policy +[4106.50 --> 4107.50] is going to have +[4107.50 --> 4108.08] an impact +[4108.08 --> 4109.20] on everyone +[4109.20 --> 4109.84] especially +[4109.84 --> 4111.52] if they win this +[4111.52 --> 4112.52] and they're able +[4112.52 --> 4113.20] to get access +[4113.20 --> 4113.66] to data +[4113.66 --> 4114.56] that is not stored +[4114.56 --> 4115.38] on American servers +[4115.38 --> 4116.40] because that's looking +[4116.40 --> 4117.78] like one of the +[4117.78 --> 4120.36] only last refuges +[4120.36 --> 4121.60] for keeping your data +[4121.60 --> 4123.18] safe from the prying +[4123.18 --> 4123.74] of the U.S. +[4123.84 --> 4124.10] government +[4124.10 --> 4125.02] is to store it +[4125.02 --> 4125.48] on servers +[4125.48 --> 4127.08] that aren't in America. +[4127.92 --> 4128.22] And so, +[4128.34 --> 4129.18] Apple and Cisco +[4129.18 --> 4130.18] said that the text, +[4130.18 --> 4131.44] the tech sector +[4131.44 --> 4132.92] is put at risk +[4132.92 --> 4134.30] of being sanctioned +[4134.30 --> 4135.22] by foreign governments +[4135.22 --> 4135.92] and the U.S. +[4135.96 --> 4137.02] should seek cooperation +[4137.02 --> 4138.18] with foreign nations +[4138.18 --> 4139.30] via treaties, +[4139.88 --> 4140.52] a position +[4140.52 --> 4141.52] that the U.S. +[4141.56 --> 4143.48] said is not practical. +[4144.02 --> 4144.38] I mean, +[4144.60 --> 4145.48] Microsoft's point +[4145.48 --> 4145.88] in the video, +[4145.92 --> 4146.56] and you should watch +[4146.56 --> 4147.08] the video, +[4147.32 --> 4148.26] is really good. +[4148.52 --> 4149.46] Are people going +[4149.46 --> 4150.32] to entrust +[4150.32 --> 4151.06] their data +[4151.06 --> 4151.94] to the cloud +[4151.94 --> 4153.48] if they feel like +[4153.48 --> 4154.90] anyone could be +[4154.90 --> 4155.56] looking at it? +[4155.84 --> 4156.38] No, because, +[4156.70 --> 4157.04] I mean, +[4157.10 --> 4157.62] are we going to go +[4157.62 --> 4158.56] back to snail mail? +[4158.56 --> 4159.26] Is that what +[4159.26 --> 4159.68] this is going +[4159.68 --> 4160.14] to come to? +[4160.58 --> 4161.68] Because the last +[4161.68 --> 4162.64] time I checked, +[4162.94 --> 4163.48] no one's allowed +[4163.48 --> 4164.26] to open your mail. +[4164.62 --> 4165.38] That's a crime. +[4165.72 --> 4165.88] Yeah. +[4166.26 --> 4167.42] That's a crime. +[4167.56 --> 4168.20] That's the same thing. +[4168.30 --> 4169.10] I'm going to jump off +[4169.10 --> 4169.78] a little bit right here, +[4169.84 --> 4170.44] but it's the same +[4170.44 --> 4171.04] kind of idea +[4171.04 --> 4171.60] where there was +[4171.60 --> 4172.20] something recently +[4172.20 --> 4173.14] passed in Canada, +[4173.14 --> 4175.44] which is police +[4175.44 --> 4176.56] are allowed to +[4176.56 --> 4177.00] check out +[4177.00 --> 4178.02] the contents +[4178.02 --> 4178.70] of your phone +[4178.70 --> 4180.82] in relation +[4180.82 --> 4181.80] to what they +[4181.80 --> 4182.56] arrested you for +[4182.56 --> 4183.44] if they arrest you +[4183.44 --> 4184.32] without a warrant. +[4184.56 --> 4185.30] So they're able +[4185.30 --> 4185.90] to look through +[4185.90 --> 4186.38] your phone +[4186.38 --> 4186.80] for things +[4186.80 --> 4187.24] that could have +[4187.24 --> 4187.90] something to do +[4187.90 --> 4188.72] with what +[4188.72 --> 4190.16] you got arrested for +[4190.16 --> 4190.88] without getting +[4190.88 --> 4191.26] a warrant +[4191.26 --> 4191.90] for any reason +[4191.90 --> 4192.76] and they're obviously +[4192.76 --> 4193.16] going to have to +[4193.16 --> 4193.66] look through +[4193.66 --> 4194.14] a whole bunch +[4194.14 --> 4194.46] of stuff +[4194.46 --> 4195.32] to find things +[4195.32 --> 4195.74] that are related +[4195.74 --> 4196.16] to what you +[4196.16 --> 4196.96] possibly just did. +[4197.16 --> 4197.68] So I should just +[4197.68 --> 4198.26] make sure +[4198.26 --> 4198.86] that there's some +[4198.86 --> 4199.98] really awful stuff +[4199.98 --> 4200.52] on my phone +[4200.52 --> 4200.96] that they don't +[4200.96 --> 4201.44] want to see? +[4202.00 --> 4202.40] Probably. +[4202.66 --> 4203.56] Is that the strategy? +[4203.78 --> 4204.28] But like, +[4204.38 --> 4205.76] it's crazy +[4205.76 --> 4206.36] because like +[4206.36 --> 4207.12] if you were speeding +[4207.12 --> 4207.86] they could be like, +[4208.00 --> 4208.20] well, +[4208.42 --> 4209.08] I need to look +[4209.08 --> 4210.14] through your text messages +[4210.14 --> 4210.96] in entirety +[4210.96 --> 4211.70] to figure out +[4211.70 --> 4212.68] if you have talked +[4212.68 --> 4213.98] about a race +[4213.98 --> 4214.54] that you might have +[4214.54 --> 4215.22] possibly been in. +[4215.22 --> 4216.54] Like that's a potential +[4216.54 --> 4217.12] situation +[4217.12 --> 4218.38] and all of the things +[4218.38 --> 4219.28] that are on your phone +[4219.28 --> 4220.10] in other forms +[4220.10 --> 4221.44] are guarded by warrants. +[4221.56 --> 4222.34] You can't check +[4222.34 --> 4223.06] someone's mail +[4223.06 --> 4223.82] without a warrant. +[4224.14 --> 4224.70] You can't check +[4224.70 --> 4225.66] someone's phone records +[4225.66 --> 4226.52] without a warrant. +[4226.84 --> 4227.76] But apparently +[4227.76 --> 4228.78] your cell phone +[4228.78 --> 4229.74] has nothing to do +[4229.74 --> 4230.12] with that +[4230.12 --> 4231.22] and that's +[4231.22 --> 4232.40] not really okay. +[4232.48 --> 4232.94] The problem is +[4232.94 --> 4233.40] that the laws +[4233.40 --> 4234.20] aren't keeping up +[4234.20 --> 4235.88] because five years ago +[4235.88 --> 4237.42] that may have actually +[4237.42 --> 4238.46] been a valid point +[4238.46 --> 4239.28] because a phone +[4239.28 --> 4240.36] wouldn't have really, +[4240.50 --> 4241.62] maybe not even five, +[4241.72 --> 4242.58] maybe eight years ago, +[4242.80 --> 4243.64] a phone wouldn't +[4243.64 --> 4244.50] have contained +[4244.50 --> 4246.24] all of your personal +[4246.24 --> 4247.46] financial information +[4247.46 --> 4248.06] for example. +[4248.06 --> 4248.44] It would have +[4248.44 --> 4249.18] your phone records. +[4249.76 --> 4250.72] Whereas now, +[4250.88 --> 4251.40] which is something +[4251.40 --> 4252.00] you need to warrant for. +[4252.96 --> 4253.72] Whereas now, +[4253.84 --> 4254.32] your phone +[4254.32 --> 4254.92] can contain +[4254.92 --> 4255.60] a lot of stuff +[4255.60 --> 4256.56] that traditionally +[4256.56 --> 4257.80] would have only +[4257.80 --> 4258.76] been allowed +[4258.76 --> 4259.42] to be sent +[4259.42 --> 4260.08] by mail +[4260.08 --> 4260.82] because of +[4260.82 --> 4261.78] security concerns. +[4261.90 --> 4262.32] Things like +[4262.32 --> 4263.32] credit card statements +[4263.32 --> 4265.08] or mortgage documents +[4265.08 --> 4265.92] or whatever else. +[4266.08 --> 4266.78] Most of which +[4266.78 --> 4267.22] can be done +[4267.22 --> 4267.90] digitally now. +[4268.94 --> 4269.62] So that's like +[4269.62 --> 4270.48] a really big deal +[4270.48 --> 4270.92] and that happened +[4270.92 --> 4271.66] in Canada recently. +[4271.66 --> 4272.14] The only reason +[4272.14 --> 4272.94] why I brought that up, +[4273.34 --> 4274.26] I know I don't really +[4274.26 --> 4275.02] bring up Canadian +[4275.02 --> 4275.70] politics stuff +[4275.70 --> 4276.18] very often. +[4276.40 --> 4276.92] Yeah, because no one +[4276.92 --> 4277.68] cares about Canada. +[4277.86 --> 4278.36] Pretty much. +[4278.98 --> 4280.18] But, yeah. +[4281.22 --> 4282.30] But it's because +[4282.30 --> 4283.12] it's kind of +[4283.12 --> 4284.06] similarly related. +[4284.22 --> 4285.20] Laws that are coming up +[4285.20 --> 4285.78] and things that are +[4285.78 --> 4286.56] trying to be done +[4286.56 --> 4287.52] that contradict +[4287.52 --> 4288.38] and go against +[4288.38 --> 4289.04] things that we've +[4289.04 --> 4290.12] had for a long time. +[4290.20 --> 4290.74] Like needing to +[4290.74 --> 4291.46] work with governments +[4291.46 --> 4292.18] to do something +[4292.18 --> 4293.76] in someone else's soil. +[4294.40 --> 4295.74] That's, ah, +[4296.04 --> 4296.52] that's been a thing +[4296.52 --> 4296.80] forever. +[4297.38 --> 4297.92] Yeah, don't touch +[4297.92 --> 4298.46] my soil. +[4301.66 --> 4303.08] Without my permission. +[4305.12 --> 4305.84] Perch buys +[4305.84 --> 4306.50] a non-tech. +[4306.60 --> 4307.00] So these are +[4307.00 --> 4307.70] the same guys +[4307.70 --> 4308.76] that own +[4308.76 --> 4309.72] Tom's Hardware +[4309.72 --> 4310.24] already. +[4310.44 --> 4310.92] We'll just fire, +[4310.98 --> 4311.52] this was posted +[4311.52 --> 4312.46] by Alex Goes High +[4312.46 --> 4312.98] on the forum. +[4313.34 --> 4314.02] We'll just fire up +[4314.02 --> 4314.80] Perch.com. +[4315.22 --> 4315.98] So, um, +[4316.08 --> 4316.82] I'm not really sure, +[4317.00 --> 4317.64] I'm not really sure +[4317.64 --> 4318.46] what to think of this +[4318.46 --> 4320.26] because, I mean, +[4320.34 --> 4320.92] some of the stuff +[4320.92 --> 4322.60] that I hear +[4322.60 --> 4323.72] about Tom's Hardware +[4323.72 --> 4324.72] would go a little +[4324.72 --> 4325.22] bit deeper +[4325.22 --> 4326.04] than what actually +[4326.04 --> 4327.26] appears on their +[4327.26 --> 4328.28] website with respect +[4328.28 --> 4328.96] to, you know, +[4329.02 --> 4329.90] what advertiser +[4329.90 --> 4331.02] relationships are like +[4331.02 --> 4331.42] with them. +[4332.02 --> 4333.60] Um, I mean, +[4333.74 --> 4334.70] a good thing, +[4334.78 --> 4335.32] and so there's a +[4335.32 --> 4335.98] statement from +[4335.98 --> 4336.58] Ryan Smith +[4336.58 --> 4337.30] who took over +[4337.30 --> 4338.30] for Anand, +[4338.48 --> 4339.28] the guy who started +[4339.28 --> 4340.16] Anand Tech. +[4340.68 --> 4341.68] Um, so they have +[4341.68 --> 4342.58] a statement from him, +[4342.74 --> 4343.24] blah, blah, blah, +[4343.32 --> 4343.86] grown by leaps +[4343.86 --> 4344.44] and bounds. +[4344.66 --> 4345.84] We are nearing +[4345.84 --> 4347.54] what is possible +[4347.54 --> 4348.66] as an independent +[4348.66 --> 4349.34] company. +[4349.58 --> 4350.48] The challenge has +[4350.48 --> 4351.08] always been that +[4351.08 --> 4351.72] there are very few +[4351.72 --> 4352.28] players in the +[4352.28 --> 4353.06] publishing space +[4353.06 --> 4353.72] these days who +[4353.72 --> 4354.52] value deep, +[4354.66 --> 4355.78] high-quality content. +[4355.90 --> 4356.48] We wanted a partner +[4356.48 --> 4357.32] that understood our +[4357.32 --> 4359.30] values and had a +[4359.30 --> 4360.14] sound business model, +[4360.14 --> 4360.94] et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. +[4361.00 --> 4361.66] So basically, +[4362.32 --> 4363.86] they wanted someone +[4363.86 --> 4366.52] to support their +[4366.52 --> 4368.76] business and find +[4368.76 --> 4370.86] advertisers and find +[4370.86 --> 4372.16] deals for them that +[4372.16 --> 4373.06] would allow them to, +[4373.12 --> 4373.78] you know, pay their +[4373.78 --> 4375.16] salaries and do their +[4375.16 --> 4375.68] jobs. +[4376.24 --> 4376.90] Um, so they wanted +[4376.90 --> 4378.28] someone who appreciated +[4378.28 --> 4379.58] how much more work +[4379.58 --> 4380.88] goes into a single +[4380.88 --> 4382.20] article at Anand Tech +[4382.20 --> 4383.92] versus at, you know, +[4383.98 --> 4384.58] let's say, +[4384.82 --> 4386.24] Gizmodo or Engadget +[4386.24 --> 4387.36] or something like +[4387.36 --> 4387.48] that. +[4387.52 --> 4388.08] And I'm not saying +[4388.08 --> 4389.02] no one at Engadget +[4389.02 --> 4389.80] works hard on an +[4389.80 --> 4390.10] article. +[4390.26 --> 4390.74] That's not the +[4390.74 --> 4391.30] statement I'm making +[4391.30 --> 4391.58] at all. +[4391.64 --> 4392.26] I'm saying that +[4392.26 --> 4394.10] typically, you know, +[4394.16 --> 4395.48] word for word, +[4395.48 --> 4396.48] there's going to be +[4396.48 --> 4397.76] more of them in the +[4397.76 --> 4398.50] Anand Tech article +[4398.50 --> 4399.68] and they will often +[4399.68 --> 4401.24] have more research +[4401.24 --> 4402.38] and more benchmarking +[4402.38 --> 4402.72] and numbers. +[4402.92 --> 4403.18] They're a different +[4403.18 --> 4403.80] style. +[4403.96 --> 4404.52] Anand Tech is going +[4404.52 --> 4405.16] to be a long, +[4405.22 --> 4406.56] a long form, +[4406.86 --> 4408.50] extremely in-depth, +[4408.62 --> 4409.30] informative style +[4409.30 --> 4409.62] stuff. +[4409.70 --> 4411.04] Stuff like Engadget is +[4411.04 --> 4411.86] going to be fairly +[4411.86 --> 4412.22] quick. +[4412.62 --> 4413.02] Digestible. +[4413.18 --> 4413.70] Yes, you're going +[4413.70 --> 4414.18] to get the news +[4414.18 --> 4415.08] quickly and it's +[4415.08 --> 4415.52] going to be fairly +[4415.52 --> 4416.02] quick to be able +[4416.02 --> 4416.44] to read. +[4416.96 --> 4417.30] It's not a, +[4418.00 --> 4418.80] yeah, yeah. +[4419.68 --> 4420.94] So there you go. +[4421.06 --> 4421.88] Anand Tech represents +[4421.88 --> 4422.76] much of my life's +[4422.76 --> 4423.46] work over the past +[4423.46 --> 4424.14] 18 years, +[4424.26 --> 4425.18] said Anand Shimpi, +[4425.26 --> 4425.72] the founder. +[4426.10 --> 4426.84] I'm happy to see it +[4426.84 --> 4427.58] end up with a partner +[4427.58 --> 4428.28] committed to taking +[4428.28 --> 4428.88] good care of the +[4428.88 --> 4429.58] brand and its readers. +[4429.70 --> 4430.22] I wouldn't have had +[4430.22 --> 4431.00] it any other way. +[4431.38 --> 4432.14] With all of that +[4432.14 --> 4433.18] said, it's not like +[4433.18 --> 4434.34] Ryan or Anand had +[4434.34 --> 4435.56] any choice but to +[4435.56 --> 4437.00] make really positive +[4437.00 --> 4437.86] statements about it. +[4437.88 --> 4438.66] And I'm sure if I +[4438.66 --> 4440.18] was selling Linus Media +[4440.18 --> 4441.86] Group to AT&T or +[4441.86 --> 4442.62] something, I would +[4442.62 --> 4443.96] spin it as the most +[4443.96 --> 4444.90] positive possible +[4444.90 --> 4446.28] thing for Linus +[4446.28 --> 4447.14] Media Group and its +[4447.14 --> 4448.00] employees and its +[4448.00 --> 4448.26] viewers. +[4448.78 --> 4450.84] But who knows? +[4450.96 --> 4451.52] Might be great. +[4451.66 --> 4452.32] Might be fine. +[4452.54 --> 4453.40] Tom's hardware hasn't +[4453.40 --> 4454.10] imploded yet. +[4454.90 --> 4456.22] So there you go. +[4457.22 --> 4460.10] If we sold to AT&T, +[4460.18 --> 4461.42] I would just become a +[4461.42 --> 4461.58] monk. +[4461.92 --> 4462.76] You'd become a monk? +[4462.96 --> 4463.20] Yeah. +[4463.20 --> 4463.98] Well, I'd be a nun. +[4463.98 --> 4468.74] I had a few people +[4468.74 --> 4470.60] sort of accuse Anand +[4470.60 --> 4471.76] Tech of selling out. +[4472.06 --> 4472.66] You know what? +[4473.02 --> 4474.90] Selling the business is +[4474.90 --> 4476.42] not necessarily the same +[4476.42 --> 4478.10] thing as selling out. +[4478.24 --> 4480.48] I mean, yes, Anand left +[4480.48 --> 4480.94] the site. +[4481.14 --> 4482.14] I think that he left it +[4482.14 --> 4483.50] in fairly capable hands +[4483.50 --> 4485.44] based on my interactions +[4485.44 --> 4486.30] with the guys that are +[4486.30 --> 4487.40] there, reading the +[4487.40 --> 4488.28] articles written by the +[4488.28 --> 4489.12] guys that are there. +[4489.58 --> 4490.90] And ultimately, content +[4490.90 --> 4491.44] is king. +[4491.44 --> 4492.08] And then if they've +[4492.08 --> 4493.10] found a partner that's +[4493.10 --> 4494.96] going to own the site, +[4495.04 --> 4495.48] that's going to make +[4495.48 --> 4496.44] sure that it's monetized +[4496.44 --> 4497.70] correctly, then, you +[4497.70 --> 4499.04] know, I don't think he's +[4499.04 --> 4500.44] sold out so much as +[4500.44 --> 4502.32] sold, which is not +[4502.32 --> 4503.10] really the same thing. +[4503.52 --> 4504.34] And then I had people +[4504.34 --> 4505.40] discussing in the forum +[4505.40 --> 4506.34] thread on this topic +[4506.34 --> 4507.76] whether, you know, if +[4507.76 --> 4509.48] Linus was going to sell +[4509.48 --> 4510.36] out or whatever else, +[4510.44 --> 4511.50] like, no, I intend to +[4511.50 --> 4512.32] run Linus Media Group +[4512.32 --> 4513.44] for a really long time. +[4513.64 --> 4515.60] But one thing that I will +[4515.60 --> 4517.54] say is, you know, talk +[4517.54 --> 4519.32] to me 17 years from now +[4519.32 --> 4521.04] and maybe I feel a +[4521.04 --> 4521.48] little differently. +[4521.60 --> 4522.40] Maybe I'm ready for a +[4522.40 --> 4523.52] new challenge and, you +[4523.52 --> 4526.70] know, the younger, more +[4526.70 --> 4528.48] invigorated team that I +[4528.48 --> 4529.46] left behind is ready to +[4529.46 --> 4530.24] run Linus Media Group +[4530.24 --> 4530.66] on its own. +[4530.66 --> 4533.56] My goal is going to be +[4533.56 --> 4534.98] and yours, and I think +[4534.98 --> 4536.56] everyone here, is that we +[4536.56 --> 4538.14] are Linus Media Group, +[4538.72 --> 4539.70] not necessarily just +[4539.70 --> 4540.28] Linus Tech Tips. +[4540.36 --> 4541.08] We've done stuff like +[4541.08 --> 4541.64] Tech Quickie. +[4542.08 --> 4542.72] We've tried to make +[4542.72 --> 4544.28] things that are still +[4544.28 --> 4545.48] really interesting to us. +[4545.94 --> 4547.12] People like Super Fun. +[4547.18 --> 4548.08] We started Super Fun. +[4548.08 --> 4550.22] But we're not just one +[4550.22 --> 4551.24] singular website. +[4551.56 --> 4552.70] And we might not always +[4552.70 --> 4553.88] just be video, even. +[4554.18 --> 4554.38] Yeah. +[4554.62 --> 4555.02] Who knows? +[4556.50 --> 4557.30] We're going to keep +[4557.30 --> 4558.56] evolving and I'm going to +[4558.56 --> 4559.34] try and keep this dude +[4559.34 --> 4559.72] interested. +[4560.40 --> 4561.02] And I think he's going to +[4561.02 --> 4561.86] try and keep everyone else +[4561.86 --> 4562.36] here interested. +[4563.32 --> 4563.52] So... +[4563.52 --> 4564.08] That whip. +[4564.92 --> 4565.94] Nothing keeps people +[4565.94 --> 4567.06] more interested than a whip. +[4567.52 --> 4570.28] That nun costume just got +[4570.28 --> 4571.40] real interested. +[4571.40 --> 4574.44] All right. +[4574.54 --> 4575.96] Posted on the forum by +[4575.96 --> 4577.74] XtankSlayerX. +[4577.82 --> 4579.16] I'm sharing this one. +[4579.48 --> 4580.68] Hatred was removed from +[4580.68 --> 4583.34] Steam Greenlight for a +[4583.34 --> 4583.74] day. +[4584.12 --> 4585.16] Well, a day after its +[4585.16 --> 4585.52] launch. +[4586.06 --> 4587.34] And, oh, apparently I'm +[4587.34 --> 4588.26] not a member of their +[4588.26 --> 4589.52] forum, so I won't be +[4589.52 --> 4590.58] viewing that particular +[4590.58 --> 4591.00] topic. +[4591.20 --> 4591.66] All right, then. +[4591.80 --> 4593.10] Let's try the next link +[4593.10 --> 4593.36] here. +[4594.00 --> 4594.94] And I can't bring that +[4594.94 --> 4595.40] one up either. +[4595.48 --> 4595.98] Well, whatever. +[4596.08 --> 4596.80] There's nothing that I +[4596.80 --> 4598.18] can do for you guys. +[4598.18 --> 4599.88] So our source here, +[4600.50 --> 4601.68] XtankSlayerX posted this +[4601.68 --> 4603.80] and it's forums.hatredgame.com +[4603.80 --> 4605.46] and basically it was +[4605.46 --> 4606.18] pulled down. +[4606.68 --> 4607.90] Gabe Newell himself +[4607.90 --> 4609.24] reinstated the game on +[4609.24 --> 4610.40] Greenlight one day +[4610.40 --> 4610.76] later. +[4610.92 --> 4611.58] So that was December +[4611.58 --> 4613.38] 16th and personally +[4613.38 --> 4614.86] emailed the creator to +[4614.86 --> 4616.86] apologize and inform him +[4616.86 --> 4617.72] that the game was to be +[4617.72 --> 4618.94] placed back on Steam +[4618.94 --> 4619.50] Greenlight. +[4619.72 --> 4621.14] In the letter, he said, +[4621.56 --> 4622.52] since I wasn't up to +[4622.52 --> 4623.78] speed on why this +[4623.78 --> 4626.40] decision was made, I +[4626.40 --> 4627.94] asked around internally to +[4627.94 --> 4629.24] find out why we had +[4629.24 --> 4630.66] done that, taking +[4630.66 --> 4631.66] Hatred down. +[4632.02 --> 4632.96] It turns out that it +[4632.96 --> 4634.10] wasn't a good decision +[4634.10 --> 4634.90] and we'll be putting +[4634.90 --> 4636.08] Hatred back up. +[4636.18 --> 4637.14] My apologies to you and +[4637.14 --> 4637.54] your team. +[4637.86 --> 4638.74] Steam is creating tools +[4638.74 --> 4639.68] for content creators +[4639.68 --> 4640.62] and customers. +[4640.84 --> 4641.88] Good luck with your +[4641.88 --> 4642.20] game. +[4642.32 --> 4647.42] Now, I guess I see why +[4647.42 --> 4648.06] it might have been +[4648.06 --> 4648.38] pulled. +[4648.96 --> 4649.76] Hatred is a game where +[4649.76 --> 4650.56] you play as the +[4650.56 --> 4651.26] antagonist. +[4651.38 --> 4652.54] Basically, you're a +[4652.54 --> 4653.66] mass murderer and you +[4653.66 --> 4654.92] go on a killing spree. +[4655.08 --> 4655.96] The entire point of the +[4655.96 --> 4656.60] game is to kill +[4656.60 --> 4657.76] innocent civilians and +[4657.76 --> 4658.56] police officers. +[4659.84 --> 4661.00] Steam pulled the game +[4661.00 --> 4662.52] just hours after it was +[4662.52 --> 4664.62] launched and VP of +[4664.62 --> 4665.30] marketing at Valve +[4665.30 --> 4666.36] stated, based on what +[4666.36 --> 4667.40] we've seen on Greenlight, +[4667.50 --> 4668.40] we would not publish +[4668.40 --> 4669.38] Hatred on Steam. +[4669.46 --> 4670.02] As such, we'll be +[4670.02 --> 4671.38] taking it down without +[4671.38 --> 4672.22] really elaborating on +[4672.22 --> 4672.60] the decision. +[4672.68 --> 4673.94] In fact, we still don't +[4673.94 --> 4675.26] know exactly why the +[4675.26 --> 4676.60] decision was made at +[4676.60 --> 4677.58] Valve to pull it down. +[4677.66 --> 4678.46] We just know that Gabe +[4678.46 --> 4679.90] Newell came in and +[4679.90 --> 4681.30] stomped in the way that +[4681.30 --> 4682.18] only someone who weighs +[4682.18 --> 4683.06] as much as Gabe Newell +[4683.06 --> 4683.46] can. +[4683.80 --> 4684.84] Sorry, I love you, Gabe. +[4684.84 --> 4685.96] Winter Sale is amazing. +[4686.80 --> 4687.62] Sorry, I shouldn't take +[4687.62 --> 4688.32] shots at you for +[4688.32 --> 4688.88] weighing a lot. +[4691.44 --> 4692.86] And now it's back up. +[4692.98 --> 4694.50] So this is one that, +[4694.70 --> 4695.44] I don't know, what are +[4695.44 --> 4696.68] your personal feelings? +[4696.92 --> 4699.18] Should there be a limit +[4699.18 --> 4701.86] to what Valve should be +[4701.86 --> 4704.54] willing to publish on +[4704.54 --> 4705.24] Steam? +[4705.24 --> 4706.58] I think they just need to +[4706.58 --> 4709.22] have, I guess, better +[4709.22 --> 4710.52] predefined metrics. +[4710.52 --> 4712.38] like, you're running a +[4712.38 --> 4712.76] store. +[4712.94 --> 4714.00] You can decide what you +[4714.00 --> 4714.66] want to be in your +[4714.66 --> 4714.84] store. +[4714.94 --> 4715.92] And of course, there's +[4715.92 --> 4716.94] this weird thing where +[4716.94 --> 4717.92] people can vote stuff +[4717.92 --> 4719.08] in, but you still have +[4719.08 --> 4719.62] veto power. +[4719.74 --> 4720.66] You should be able to +[4720.66 --> 4721.44] remove things. +[4723.20 --> 4725.04] And this becomes a +[4725.04 --> 4726.14] fairly interesting thing +[4726.14 --> 4727.10] where a lot of internet +[4727.10 --> 4728.16] platforms are seen as +[4728.16 --> 4729.72] public resources instead +[4729.72 --> 4730.34] of companies. +[4730.68 --> 4731.90] And this happens a lot. +[4732.12 --> 4733.70] And, like, they should +[4733.70 --> 4734.84] do this and then +[4734.84 --> 4735.52] everyone will get very +[4735.52 --> 4736.10] mad at them because +[4736.10 --> 4737.00] they didn't do something +[4737.00 --> 4737.58] the way they wanted +[4737.58 --> 4738.86] them to while it's a +[4738.86 --> 4739.72] company still. +[4740.52 --> 4742.12] Um, it's, it's, it's +[4742.12 --> 4742.50] an interesting +[4742.50 --> 4743.12] conversation. +[4743.32 --> 4743.96] I think they should +[4743.96 --> 4744.74] have better defined +[4744.74 --> 4745.18] metrics. +[4745.18 --> 4746.80] Like, okay, if your +[4746.80 --> 4748.62] game is specifically +[4748.62 --> 4751.60] about mass murder and +[4751.60 --> 4752.64] specifically about +[4752.64 --> 4753.30] killing innocent +[4753.30 --> 4754.00] civilians and +[4754.00 --> 4755.02] specifically about +[4755.02 --> 4756.08] killing police officers +[4756.08 --> 4758.28] who weren't doing +[4758.28 --> 4759.36] anything wrong. +[4759.52 --> 4760.02] Other than their +[4760.02 --> 4760.40] jobs. +[4760.50 --> 4761.04] Their jobs. +[4761.16 --> 4762.36] And, like, specifically +[4762.36 --> 4764.64] designed to be a game +[4764.64 --> 4765.46] about essentially +[4765.46 --> 4766.58] genocide and +[4766.58 --> 4767.72] specifically designed +[4767.72 --> 4768.70] for these things, +[4768.70 --> 4770.38] maybe we don't want +[4770.38 --> 4771.20] that on our service. +[4771.30 --> 4772.46] And if that exists, if +[4772.46 --> 4773.28] that is a metric that +[4773.28 --> 4774.30] they have, then I think +[4774.30 --> 4774.70] it's okay. +[4774.82 --> 4776.04] It wasn't. +[4776.38 --> 4777.62] Yeah, because there +[4777.62 --> 4779.82] are games like GTA 5 +[4779.82 --> 4781.34] or Watch Dogs where +[4781.34 --> 4782.66] you can run around and +[4782.66 --> 4783.96] gun down civilians and +[4783.96 --> 4785.24] gun down police officers +[4785.24 --> 4787.00] with, I guess, the +[4787.00 --> 4788.42] justification for that +[4788.42 --> 4789.82] being that the rules +[4789.82 --> 4791.12] of the world do +[4791.12 --> 4792.02] somewhat apply. +[4792.44 --> 4793.36] You know, they'll send +[4793.36 --> 4795.44] bigger and bigger law +[4795.44 --> 4796.68] enforcement after you +[4796.68 --> 4798.10] and, you know, or the +[4798.10 --> 4799.40] public can turn against +[4799.40 --> 4800.76] you and watch dogs or +[4800.76 --> 4801.16] whatever else. +[4801.22 --> 4802.40] Like, it's not considered +[4802.40 --> 4803.94] something that the +[4803.94 --> 4806.96] player is rewarded for. +[4807.10 --> 4807.70] Yeah, and it's not +[4807.70 --> 4809.20] necessarily your specific +[4809.20 --> 4809.56] goal. +[4809.66 --> 4810.16] It's definitely something +[4810.16 --> 4811.06] you can partake in the +[4811.06 --> 4811.26] game. +[4811.36 --> 4812.24] It's definitely something +[4812.24 --> 4812.66] you can do. +[4812.78 --> 4813.92] A game like Carmageddon, +[4814.16 --> 4814.78] you could make the +[4814.78 --> 4815.94] argument it's a racing +[4815.94 --> 4816.34] game. +[4818.28 --> 4819.22] It would be a weak +[4819.22 --> 4820.24] argument, but you could +[4820.24 --> 4821.62] make the argument that it +[4821.62 --> 4823.18] is a racing game. +[4823.38 --> 4824.74] But this game specifically +[4824.74 --> 4826.72] is like, yes, please +[4826.72 --> 4827.78] kill innocent people. +[4828.06 --> 4829.44] People are bringing up +[4829.44 --> 4831.04] Manhunt as an example +[4831.04 --> 4831.30] of these. +[4831.30 --> 4832.16] There's a couple. +[4832.28 --> 4833.14] There's Manhunt, there's +[4833.14 --> 4834.12] that other one that I +[4834.12 --> 4834.64] can't remember the name +[4834.64 --> 4834.98] of. +[4836.92 --> 4837.40] Postal? +[4837.96 --> 4838.40] I think it's called +[4838.40 --> 4839.00] Postal. +[4839.36 --> 4840.52] Cough, Payday 2. +[4840.94 --> 4841.92] So yes, there are +[4841.92 --> 4843.10] examples of stuff like +[4843.10 --> 4844.54] this, but I guess +[4844.54 --> 4845.68] basically the problem is +[4845.68 --> 4847.58] that Valve didn't draw +[4847.58 --> 4848.84] the line, and you don't +[4848.84 --> 4849.68] get to draw the line +[4849.68 --> 4850.34] after the fact. +[4850.40 --> 4851.74] So I suspect right now +[4851.74 --> 4853.62] they're in the process of +[4853.62 --> 4854.80] internal meetings about +[4854.80 --> 4855.36] where they're going to +[4855.36 --> 4856.18] draw the line, because +[4856.18 --> 4857.82] let's say, for example, +[4857.98 --> 4859.24] that Hatred had been +[4859.24 --> 4861.06] baby Hatred, and the +[4861.06 --> 4862.80] entire game was, you +[4862.80 --> 4864.02] know, like AAA +[4864.02 --> 4865.94] graphics, tearing apart +[4865.94 --> 4866.88] babies in front of +[4866.88 --> 4867.98] their mothers, and then +[4867.98 --> 4869.08] you know, committing +[4869.08 --> 4871.22] sexual assault on the +[4871.22 --> 4872.14] like, like you could +[4872.14 --> 4873.04] come up with a game +[4873.04 --> 4874.42] that literally shouldn't +[4874.42 --> 4875.28] be allowed to be +[4875.28 --> 4877.10] published anywhere, and +[4877.10 --> 4878.42] I think Valve just has +[4878.42 --> 4880.12] to define where their +[4880.12 --> 4881.28] line in the sand is +[4881.28 --> 4881.86] going to be drawn. +[4881.86 --> 4882.22] Especially now that +[4882.22 --> 4882.86] they have a voting +[4882.86 --> 4883.24] system. +[4883.48 --> 4884.90] They need to come up +[4884.90 --> 4885.98] with predefined metrics +[4885.98 --> 4887.30] for what cannot get +[4887.30 --> 4887.86] through the voting +[4887.86 --> 4888.72] system and what they're +[4888.72 --> 4889.34] going to veto. +[4890.84 --> 4891.86] I think there wasn't +[4891.86 --> 4892.64] enough communication +[4892.64 --> 4893.86] here on Valve's side +[4893.86 --> 4895.40] as to those types of +[4895.40 --> 4897.60] things, and I think if +[4897.60 --> 4898.52] they wanted to pull +[4898.52 --> 4899.50] something like Hatred +[4899.50 --> 4900.74] down, they should have +[4900.74 --> 4902.18] pulled, sorry, they +[4902.18 --> 4902.54] should have pulled +[4902.54 --> 4903.62] related games down. +[4903.70 --> 4904.46] People brought up that, +[4905.22 --> 4906.54] I don't know, I haven't +[4906.54 --> 4907.58] looked for it, because +[4907.58 --> 4908.56] I'm not interested in +[4908.56 --> 4910.08] this, but people brought +[4910.08 --> 4911.26] up that I think Postal's +[4911.26 --> 4912.14] on Steam or something. +[4912.52 --> 4913.54] So if they wanted to +[4913.54 --> 4914.98] do this, they probably +[4914.98 --> 4915.70] should have taken down +[4915.70 --> 4916.28] games that were +[4916.28 --> 4916.98] essentially the same +[4916.98 --> 4917.34] idea. +[4919.06 --> 4919.58] But, yeah. +[4919.72 --> 4920.58] Okay, so let's move +[4920.58 --> 4921.30] on to something a little +[4921.30 --> 4921.88] bit more fun. +[4921.96 --> 4923.00] This was, the original +[4923.00 --> 4923.88] article is from the +[4923.88 --> 4924.46] Tech Report. +[4924.80 --> 4925.24] All right, can you +[4925.24 --> 4925.58] post that? +[4925.90 --> 4926.08] Yeah. +[4926.08 --> 4927.24] And this was posted +[4927.24 --> 4928.52] by Ah Ming on the +[4928.52 --> 4929.38] forum, and this looks +[4929.38 --> 4930.90] actually pretty awesome. +[4930.96 --> 4931.82] I really like this +[4931.82 --> 4931.92] thing. +[4931.92 --> 4933.10] So, Lian Li is using +[4933.10 --> 4934.60] flexible PCI Express +[4934.60 --> 4935.26] extensions. +[4935.26 --> 4936.92] I sure wish they would +[4936.92 --> 4937.94] do an external power +[4937.94 --> 4938.62] supply and make them +[4938.62 --> 4940.38] smaller, as well as +[4940.38 --> 4942.26] glass, so tempered glass +[4942.26 --> 4944.26] panels, and wall +[4944.26 --> 4945.58] mounting support to +[4945.58 --> 4946.52] make some pretty +[4946.52 --> 4948.30] amazing and unique +[4948.30 --> 4949.06] cases. +[4949.32 --> 4950.68] These look fantastic. +[4951.26 --> 4952.16] Looked really nice. +[4952.30 --> 4953.48] Now, okay, that one's +[4953.48 --> 4953.98] a little big. +[4954.32 --> 4954.92] That one's a little +[4954.92 --> 4955.14] big. +[4955.22 --> 4956.16] So, just for context, +[4956.16 --> 4957.36] guys, here, this is a +[4957.36 --> 4958.08] three and a half inch +[4958.08 --> 4958.46] drive. +[4958.80 --> 4959.84] This is a full-sized +[4959.84 --> 4961.22] ATX power supply, and +[4961.22 --> 4962.32] this is a full-sized +[4962.32 --> 4964.12] gaming-grade graphics +[4964.12 --> 4965.26] card looks like an +[4965.26 --> 4966.42] ASUS Strix or +[4966.42 --> 4967.18] something like that. +[4967.26 --> 4968.32] And that's a full-sized +[4968.32 --> 4969.12] ATX board. +[4969.34 --> 4970.50] Give me this basic +[4970.50 --> 4971.44] concept with an +[4971.44 --> 4972.44] ITX board. +[4972.62 --> 4973.22] Yep, they have +[4973.22 --> 4973.42] that. +[4973.86 --> 4975.46] Yeah, so, where +[4975.46 --> 4975.80] is it? +[4975.94 --> 4976.38] Oh, whatever. +[4976.54 --> 4976.88] I think it's up. +[4976.94 --> 4977.40] I think it's the +[4977.40 --> 4978.32] original picture. +[4978.44 --> 4978.94] Yeah, there we go. +[4978.98 --> 4980.00] So, give me the same +[4980.00 --> 4981.58] basic concept, except +[4981.58 --> 4982.64] tone it down even +[4982.64 --> 4982.86] more. +[4982.92 --> 4983.30] I don't need a +[4983.30 --> 4983.72] three and a half +[4983.72 --> 4984.32] inch drive. +[4984.42 --> 4984.94] I don't want a +[4984.94 --> 4985.96] power supply internally. +[4986.08 --> 4986.66] All this stuff. +[4987.00 --> 4987.92] And this is a +[4987.92 --> 4988.94] really, really cool +[4988.94 --> 4989.36] concept. +[4990.40 --> 4991.38] I think my mom +[4991.38 --> 4991.98] might be calling. +[4992.32 --> 4993.20] Oh, lordy. +[4993.28 --> 4993.88] Do we answer +[4993.88 --> 4994.62] what she has to +[4994.62 --> 4995.22] say about murder +[4995.22 --> 4995.50] games? +[4995.62 --> 4997.16] I really think it's +[4997.16 --> 4997.84] a bad idea. +[4998.22 --> 4998.52] Okay. +[4998.74 --> 4999.42] Sorry, mom. +[4999.64 --> 5000.68] We probably know +[5000.68 --> 5001.38] what your stance is +[5001.38 --> 5002.10] on murder games. +[5002.88 --> 5004.14] We're gonna go with +[5004.14 --> 5004.84] mom doesn't like +[5004.84 --> 5005.44] murder games. +[5006.32 --> 5007.24] My mom doesn't +[5007.24 --> 5007.98] like murder games +[5007.98 --> 5008.24] either. +[5008.34 --> 5008.90] My mom doesn't +[5008.90 --> 5009.54] like games in +[5009.54 --> 5009.84] general. +[5010.40 --> 5010.58] Oh. +[5010.82 --> 5011.40] My mom likes +[5011.40 --> 5011.82] games. +[5011.98 --> 5012.72] I think the only +[5012.72 --> 5012.90] game... +[5012.90 --> 5013.30] My mom played +[5013.30 --> 5013.82] Skyrim and +[5013.82 --> 5014.38] WoW and stuff. +[5014.74 --> 5015.54] I think the only +[5015.54 --> 5016.50] game a member of +[5016.50 --> 5017.46] my family ever +[5017.46 --> 5018.94] bought for me was +[5018.94 --> 5020.38] I got the Warcraft +[5020.38 --> 5021.18] 2 battle chest +[5021.18 --> 5022.02] from my grandparents +[5022.02 --> 5023.14] and they never +[5023.14 --> 5023.72] got me a game +[5023.72 --> 5024.40] again because I'm +[5024.40 --> 5025.10] pretty sure my mom +[5025.10 --> 5025.78] gave them heck +[5025.78 --> 5027.10] when I wasn't +[5027.10 --> 5027.38] looking. +[5029.56 --> 5030.36] My mom used to +[5030.36 --> 5031.04] play WoW and I +[5031.04 --> 5031.58] remember one time +[5031.58 --> 5033.08] she got ganked in +[5033.08 --> 5034.74] I'm gonna say the +[5034.74 --> 5035.30] wrong thing but it's +[5035.30 --> 5036.02] a foresty area. +[5036.48 --> 5036.80] Stranglethorn? +[5036.96 --> 5037.12] No. +[5037.30 --> 5037.60] I don't know. +[5037.64 --> 5037.82] Whatever. +[5037.90 --> 5038.24] It doesn't matter. +[5038.76 --> 5039.88] And my like whole +[5039.88 --> 5040.82] guild went and +[5040.82 --> 5041.38] protected her. +[5041.48 --> 5041.62] No. +[5041.86 --> 5042.28] Just kidding. +[5042.36 --> 5042.74] Not at all. +[5043.24 --> 5044.28] My whole guild went +[5044.28 --> 5045.44] and protected her and +[5045.44 --> 5046.12] it was like the mom +[5046.12 --> 5047.66] defense league and we +[5047.66 --> 5048.34] made sure that she +[5048.34 --> 5049.22] couldn't get ganked by +[5049.22 --> 5049.74] other people. +[5050.10 --> 5050.86] It was fantastic. +[5052.84 --> 5053.28] Wow. +[5053.52 --> 5053.88] Anyway. +[5054.12 --> 5054.26] Oh. +[5054.76 --> 5054.98] Oh. +[5055.78 --> 5056.00] Oh. +[5057.86 --> 5058.86] So the Pirate +[5058.86 --> 5061.46] Bay shut down is a +[5061.46 --> 5062.82] lesson in futility. +[5063.14 --> 5063.50] Sorry. +[5063.72 --> 5064.80] Got lots of articles +[5064.80 --> 5066.24] from Variety.com. +[5066.30 --> 5066.92] This was posted by +[5066.92 --> 5067.90] Powder Banks on the +[5067.90 --> 5069.66] forum and in a +[5069.66 --> 5071.44] nutshell it affected +[5071.44 --> 5073.08] so you guys may or +[5073.08 --> 5073.92] may not know this but +[5073.92 --> 5074.86] the official Pirate +[5074.86 --> 5076.38] Bay was the servers +[5076.38 --> 5077.50] were raided. +[5077.50 --> 5078.84] it's like like +[5078.84 --> 5080.22] la la shut down. +[5080.48 --> 5080.56] Yeah. +[5080.62 --> 5082.02] It has had virtually +[5082.02 --> 5083.72] no effect on digital +[5083.72 --> 5084.82] piracy levels +[5084.82 --> 5086.56] whatsoever. +[5087.36 --> 5087.66] Okay. +[5088.04 --> 5089.58] There is an effect +[5089.58 --> 5091.64] but it was small +[5091.64 --> 5093.22] and probably not +[5093.22 --> 5093.68] lasting. +[5093.90 --> 5095.66] So my onscreen +[5095.66 --> 5096.66] keyboard is like +[5096.66 --> 5097.84] is this can you +[5097.84 --> 5098.84] just can you +[5098.84 --> 5099.78] just not +[5099.78 --> 5100.92] XPS? +[5100.92 --> 5101.02] You could have +[5101.02 --> 5101.54] just pressed the +[5101.54 --> 5102.10] X on it. +[5102.20 --> 5102.86] No it would +[5102.86 --> 5103.30] because it keeps +[5103.30 --> 5104.24] coming back if I +[5104.24 --> 5105.02] don't flip the +[5105.02 --> 5105.16] screen. +[5105.48 --> 5106.30] It doesn't happen +[5106.30 --> 5107.06] very often but +[5107.06 --> 5108.14] during the show +[5108.14 --> 5108.74] Did you post this? +[5109.04 --> 5109.62] So total +[5109.62 --> 5110.26] no I didn't +[5110.26 --> 5110.60] if you want to +[5110.60 --> 5110.88] go ahead and +[5110.88 --> 5111.18] post that. +[5111.78 --> 5112.98] Total BitTorrent +[5112.98 --> 5114.18] users barely +[5114.18 --> 5115.24] dropped during the +[5115.24 --> 5115.84] Pirate Bay's +[5115.84 --> 5116.32] downtime. +[5117.10 --> 5119.36] So 101.5 million +[5119.36 --> 5120.20] users on December +[5120.20 --> 5121.56] 8th one day prior +[5121.56 --> 5122.36] to the Swedish law +[5122.36 --> 5123.06] enforcement takedown +[5123.06 --> 5123.58] of the Pirate Bay +[5123.58 --> 5124.76] reached an overall +[5124.76 --> 5126.46] low of 95 million +[5126.46 --> 5127.26] users on December +[5127.26 --> 5128.54] 10th back up to +[5128.54 --> 5129.76] 100.2 million +[5129.76 --> 5130.70] users on Friday +[5130.70 --> 5132.64] December the 12th. +[5132.88 --> 5134.04] Daily average since +[5134.04 --> 5134.92] November 1st is +[5134.92 --> 5136.58] roughly 99.9 +[5136.58 --> 5137.74] million and it +[5137.74 --> 5138.96] takes so much +[5138.96 --> 5140.02] effort to take +[5140.02 --> 5140.96] down even one +[5140.96 --> 5141.94] site and when +[5141.94 --> 5142.80] they do it there +[5142.80 --> 5143.22] are going to be +[5143.22 --> 5144.06] dozens to take +[5144.06 --> 5144.52] its place. +[5144.66 --> 5145.32] The ISO hunt +[5145.32 --> 5146.30] guys were hosting +[5146.30 --> 5147.56] the Pirate Bay on +[5147.56 --> 5148.42] their own mirrored +[5148.42 --> 5150.68] server like you +[5150.68 --> 5152.22] are not going to +[5152.22 --> 5153.92] stop piracy. +[5154.50 --> 5155.56] There has to be a +[5155.56 --> 5156.34] better way. +[5156.52 --> 5158.66] I mean Google +[5158.66 --> 5159.92] Play Music turned +[5159.92 --> 5162.00] me into a 100% +[5162.00 --> 5163.04] paid music user. +[5163.04 --> 5164.26] I will happily +[5164.26 --> 5166.08] happily spend my +[5166.08 --> 5167.64] monthly subscription +[5167.64 --> 5168.58] fee on Google +[5168.58 --> 5169.30] Play Music because +[5169.30 --> 5170.62] that is how I want +[5170.62 --> 5171.92] to use it and if +[5171.92 --> 5172.76] you give people the +[5172.76 --> 5173.96] option to use content +[5173.96 --> 5174.62] the way they want to +[5174.62 --> 5175.72] use it I think they +[5175.72 --> 5176.50] will pay for it. +[5176.86 --> 5178.10] I am a personally +[5178.10 --> 5179.70] reformed music +[5179.70 --> 5180.08] pirate. +[5180.86 --> 5182.38] I own like six +[5182.38 --> 5183.70] CDs total. +[5184.14 --> 5185.54] That medium didn't +[5185.54 --> 5186.08] work for me. +[5186.26 --> 5186.90] I wasn't going to +[5186.90 --> 5189.18] pay you $24.99 for +[5189.18 --> 5190.28] the one song that I +[5190.28 --> 5191.24] wanted on that +[5191.24 --> 5192.50] album because quite +[5192.50 --> 5194.16] frankly most of what +[5194.16 --> 5194.92] someone like Britney +[5194.92 --> 5196.28] Spears does is +[5196.28 --> 5197.48] garbage but if I +[5197.48 --> 5198.22] wanted Hit Me Baby +[5198.22 --> 5199.52] one more time I +[5199.52 --> 5200.64] had to pay $24.99. +[5200.72 --> 5201.46] Are you kidding me? +[5201.54 --> 5201.76] No. +[5202.36 --> 5204.62] So there you go. +[5205.04 --> 5206.42] I was reformed. +[5206.82 --> 5207.70] I think other people +[5207.70 --> 5208.90] can be reformed by +[5208.90 --> 5210.14] systems that are +[5210.14 --> 5211.22] designed to actually +[5211.22 --> 5212.52] work and not be so +[5212.52 --> 5213.42] offensive to the +[5213.42 --> 5213.74] consumer. +[5213.94 --> 5214.22] That's like Valve's +[5214.22 --> 5214.94] whole idea. +[5215.30 --> 5215.50] Yep. +[5215.50 --> 5216.38] To a certain degree. +[5216.40 --> 5217.04] That's another thing +[5217.04 --> 5217.26] too. +[5217.52 --> 5218.62] Steam turned me +[5218.62 --> 5220.26] into a legit game +[5220.26 --> 5220.66] owner. +[5221.72 --> 5222.56] Just like that. +[5224.32 --> 5225.28] That's all they had +[5225.28 --> 5226.20] to do was they had +[5226.20 --> 5227.02] to let me use the +[5227.02 --> 5227.84] games the way that I +[5227.84 --> 5228.64] wanted to use them. +[5228.96 --> 5229.82] Copy them back and +[5229.82 --> 5230.60] forth rather than +[5230.60 --> 5231.52] re-downloading them. +[5231.74 --> 5232.40] Not have to worry +[5232.40 --> 5233.24] about serials. +[5233.38 --> 5233.96] Not having to worry +[5233.96 --> 5235.50] about CD keys and +[5235.50 --> 5236.30] physical media. +[5236.32 --> 5236.94] It's like Excel +[5236.94 --> 5238.00] databases that you +[5238.00 --> 5238.82] used to hold because +[5238.82 --> 5239.58] you'd lose them all +[5239.58 --> 5239.92] the time. +[5239.94 --> 5240.46] Like for me. +[5240.52 --> 5240.90] I'm not saying +[5240.90 --> 5241.36] about that. +[5241.44 --> 5242.26] I think you did +[5242.26 --> 5242.90] that but like I +[5242.90 --> 5243.48] know a lot of +[5243.48 --> 5243.66] people. +[5243.74 --> 5244.94] I could make the +[5244.94 --> 5245.42] argument. +[5245.76 --> 5246.42] Like I could actually +[5246.42 --> 5247.10] make the argument +[5247.10 --> 5248.52] that I would pay +[5248.52 --> 5250.10] $20 for the +[5250.10 --> 5251.74] convenience of +[5251.74 --> 5252.14] Steam. +[5252.46 --> 5253.28] Never mind paying +[5253.28 --> 5254.98] $20 for the +[5254.98 --> 5255.86] actual content of +[5255.86 --> 5256.32] the game. +[5256.52 --> 5257.02] I mean if you're +[5257.02 --> 5257.34] going to give me +[5257.34 --> 5258.08] the content of the +[5258.08 --> 5258.64] game and the +[5258.64 --> 5259.16] convenience of +[5259.16 --> 5260.14] Steam for $20 or +[5260.14 --> 5260.98] an average of +[5260.98 --> 5262.26] $24 for a +[5262.26 --> 5262.72] AAA game. +[5262.72 --> 5263.66] If like Uplay and +[5263.66 --> 5264.44] Origin and Steam +[5264.44 --> 5265.18] didn't exist and +[5265.18 --> 5265.86] there was a service +[5265.86 --> 5266.38] that just like +[5266.38 --> 5267.06] managed all your +[5267.06 --> 5267.72] CD keys and +[5267.72 --> 5268.30] managed all the +[5268.30 --> 5268.92] downloads and +[5268.92 --> 5269.40] managed all the +[5269.40 --> 5270.10] installs and all +[5270.10 --> 5270.56] that kind of stuff +[5270.56 --> 5271.06] and made it so you +[5271.06 --> 5271.54] could drag and +[5271.54 --> 5272.30] drop whole folders +[5272.30 --> 5272.82] for games. +[5272.92 --> 5273.52] And it was like a +[5273.52 --> 5274.24] pirate service. +[5274.24 --> 5275.94] Honestly, I'll be +[5275.94 --> 5276.78] completely honest with +[5276.78 --> 5277.14] you guys. +[5277.26 --> 5278.26] I would probably use +[5278.26 --> 5279.18] that service for at +[5279.18 --> 5279.92] least some stuff +[5279.92 --> 5281.46] because for me it +[5281.46 --> 5283.22] really is about the +[5283.22 --> 5284.74] appropriate content +[5284.74 --> 5285.60] delivery model. +[5286.82 --> 5287.84] So there you go. +[5288.42 --> 5289.10] That's why pirates +[5289.10 --> 5289.50] thrive. +[5289.78 --> 5290.28] Content delivery +[5290.28 --> 5290.92] models suck. +[5291.36 --> 5291.94] That's why Netflix +[5291.94 --> 5292.84] is doing so well +[5292.84 --> 5294.24] because previous movie +[5294.24 --> 5295.22] content delivery models +[5295.22 --> 5296.06] were terrible. +[5296.28 --> 5297.08] And honestly I've +[5297.08 --> 5298.22] had no time to +[5298.22 --> 5299.24] watch movies or TV +[5299.24 --> 5300.42] shows lately with +[5300.42 --> 5301.48] the kids and all +[5301.48 --> 5301.68] that. +[5301.88 --> 5304.36] But if I like +[5304.36 --> 5305.96] once things settle +[5305.96 --> 5306.70] in a little bit +[5306.70 --> 5307.54] then I'll probably +[5307.54 --> 5308.38] reactivate my +[5308.38 --> 5309.06] Netflix subscription +[5309.06 --> 5309.48] as well. +[5310.20 --> 5311.00] I have it. +[5311.08 --> 5311.42] I don't even +[5311.42 --> 5312.14] necessarily use it +[5312.14 --> 5312.76] that much but +[5312.76 --> 5313.48] there will be like +[5313.48 --> 5314.36] that weekend where +[5314.36 --> 5314.94] I have nothing to +[5314.94 --> 5315.84] do or I have +[5315.84 --> 5316.60] something to do but +[5316.60 --> 5317.32] it's like in my +[5317.32 --> 5317.96] house and I'll just +[5317.96 --> 5318.54] play something in +[5318.54 --> 5319.74] the background and +[5319.74 --> 5320.64] I'm like oh yeah I'm +[5320.64 --> 5321.38] happy I have this. +[5322.22 --> 5322.82] And I'll get like +[5322.82 --> 5324.26] the whole value of +[5324.26 --> 5325.34] that monthly sub from +[5325.34 --> 5325.96] like a day. +[5326.30 --> 5326.44] Yep. +[5326.54 --> 5327.54] Be like yep awesome +[5327.54 --> 5328.48] super happy I had +[5328.48 --> 5328.68] this. +[5329.18 --> 5330.52] So I think that's +[5330.52 --> 5331.42] pretty much it. +[5331.48 --> 5334.10] I'm okay with it +[5334.10 --> 5334.64] being pretty much +[5334.64 --> 5335.10] it because I'm +[5335.10 --> 5335.98] super overheating +[5335.98 --> 5336.62] because I'm wearing +[5336.62 --> 5337.32] a shirt and then +[5337.32 --> 5338.04] another shirt and +[5338.04 --> 5338.78] then a sweater and +[5338.78 --> 5339.08] a wig. +[5339.38 --> 5340.30] Do I have a sweater +[5340.30 --> 5341.16] on under my habit? +[5341.38 --> 5341.88] No I don't. +[5342.50 --> 5343.20] I'm sure there's +[5343.20 --> 5343.76] going to be a fair +[5343.76 --> 5344.42] number of people +[5344.42 --> 5345.08] talking because I've +[5345.08 --> 5345.88] actually never really +[5345.88 --> 5346.70] talked about that I +[5346.70 --> 5347.60] used to pirate a lot +[5347.60 --> 5348.08] of content. +[5348.52 --> 5349.26] Yeah I think that's +[5349.26 --> 5349.74] the first time you +[5349.74 --> 5350.12] ever brought that up. +[5350.12 --> 5351.38] I speak out a lot +[5351.38 --> 5353.00] against piracy and +[5353.00 --> 5355.66] like I dismiss a lot +[5355.66 --> 5356.70] of those arguments and +[5356.70 --> 5357.68] the reason that I feel +[5357.68 --> 5358.98] like I have the right +[5358.98 --> 5360.14] to do that is because +[5360.14 --> 5361.00] I have made those +[5361.00 --> 5362.20] arguments and I +[5362.20 --> 5363.32] know that I was +[5363.32 --> 5364.30] just lying to myself. +[5364.58 --> 5365.66] I was lying to myself +[5365.66 --> 5366.42] and I was lying to +[5366.42 --> 5367.52] other people and it's +[5367.52 --> 5368.52] basically complete +[5368.52 --> 5369.00] rubbish. +[5369.20 --> 5369.86] I've gone back. +[5369.86 --> 5370.52] It's horse crap. +[5371.18 --> 5372.28] And like I know it's +[5372.28 --> 5373.40] not the same because +[5373.40 --> 5374.34] right when your game +[5374.34 --> 5375.34] launches the metrics +[5375.34 --> 5377.08] are massively more +[5377.08 --> 5377.78] important and whatnot +[5377.78 --> 5379.20] but certain things that +[5379.20 --> 5380.16] I pirated when I was a +[5380.16 --> 5381.06] kid and there was +[5381.06 --> 5382.28] legitimately no possible +[5382.28 --> 5383.02] way I could have paid +[5383.02 --> 5385.02] for it I have gone +[5385.02 --> 5386.80] back and purchased in +[5386.80 --> 5387.70] like almost every +[5387.70 --> 5388.10] scenario. +[5388.10 --> 5390.78] So people are saying +[5390.78 --> 5391.46] I'm going to lose my +[5391.46 --> 5391.88] sponsors. +[5392.20 --> 5393.58] I've said far worse on +[5393.58 --> 5394.08] this show. +[5396.08 --> 5397.88] So yeah good luck with +[5397.88 --> 5398.24] that. +[5399.04 --> 5400.22] Thanks for watching guys +[5400.22 --> 5401.56] we'll see you again next +[5401.56 --> 5402.96] week same bat time same +[5402.96 --> 5403.64] bat channel. +[5403.80 --> 5404.46] We won't be girls. +[5404.68 --> 5406.02] We will not be we will +[5406.02 --> 5407.76] not be dressed up as as +[5407.76 --> 5409.60] nuns and the chick from +[5409.60 --> 5410.08] Firefly. +[5410.20 --> 5411.00] What's with this shirt? +[5411.56 --> 5412.88] She wears this is not a +[5412.88 --> 5413.94] very accurate representation +[5413.94 --> 5416.04] but it's probably just +[5416.04 --> 5416.98] like the best thing that +[5416.98 --> 5418.58] could find but she wears +[5418.58 --> 5419.96] like her her kind of +[5419.96 --> 5420.90] greasy overalls and +[5420.90 --> 5421.86] then she wears like a +[5421.86 --> 5423.12] more girly shirt under +[5423.12 --> 5423.30] it. +[5423.42 --> 5425.62] Usually it's less terrible +[5425.62 --> 5426.14] than this. +[5426.36 --> 5426.72] All right. +[5427.02 --> 5427.56] Peace guys. +[5427.64 --> 5428.30] She also doesn't have a +[5428.30 --> 5428.54] beard. +[5429.74 --> 5431.02] So how can you tell? +[5433.64 --> 5435.28] She could have a like +[5435.28 --> 5436.92] transparent hair beard. +[5436.92 --> 5440.96] You don't think so but I +[5440.96 --> 5441.86] asked how you know I +[5441.86 --> 5442.80] didn't ask how you don't +[5442.80 --> 5443.28] think so. +[5443.72 --> 5444.34] But if you had a +[5444.34 --> 5444.56] turn. +[5446.56 --> 5447.46] Doesn't everyone have +[5447.46 --> 5447.70] like a. +[5447.74 --> 5448.84] Have you ever rubbed +[5448.84 --> 5450.10] your face against hers? +[5450.56 --> 5450.96] No. +[5451.26 --> 5451.72] But I would. +[5452.56 --> 5453.86] Would you do that if +[5453.86 --> 5454.64] you had the opportunity? +[5455.12 --> 5455.56] Probably. +[5456.24 --> 5457.44] Although not forcibly. +[5457.76 --> 5458.40] She would have to be +[5458.40 --> 5459.14] okay with it first. +[5459.42 --> 5459.68] Okay. +[5459.78 --> 5460.70] I would be okay with you +[5460.70 --> 5461.48] rubbing your face against +[5461.48 --> 5461.76] mine. +[5462.02 --> 5462.46] Would you? +[5462.82 --> 5463.78] Probably not actually. +[5463.86 --> 5464.90] I was just I wanted to +[5464.90 --> 5465.40] clarify that. +[5465.40 --> 5466.54] Based on how much residue +[5466.54 --> 5468.06] your hands leave on mice. +[5468.26 --> 5469.10] I don't think I need to +[5469.10 --> 5469.92] make contact with your +[5469.92 --> 5470.12] face. +[5470.12 --> 5470.92] My face doesn't sweat +[5470.92 --> 5472.22] as much as my hands do. +[5472.54 --> 5473.36] Can you prove that +[5473.36 --> 5474.08] without rubbing your +[5474.08 --> 5474.64] face on me? +[5475.16 --> 5476.54] Actually probably yeah. diff --git a/The WAN Show Trouble for Apple Pay & also Tim Cook is Gay - October 31, 2014_transcript.txt b/The WAN Show Trouble for Apple Pay & also Tim

+[24.00 --> 26.00] Why wouldn't you have a scarf? +[26.00 --> 28.00] Because I have a cape! +[28.00 --> 30.00] It's not for concealing your identity. +[30.00 --> 32.00] Are you gonna fight like... +[32.00 --> 33.00] You can. +[33.00 --> 34.00] That's so stupid. +[34.00 --> 36.00] You don't want to get punched in the mouth, do you?

+[53.00 --> 55.00] That's exactly what I did. +[55.00 --> 62.00] ...and wears a cape in green and purple to symbolize his badassness. +[62.00 --> 64.00] Ninja Turtles do something? +[64.00 --> 65.00] Did you notice that it smells? +[65.00 --> 66.00] No. +[66.00 --> 68.00] I have owned this cape since... +[68.00 --> 69.00] It does kinda smell. +[69.00 --> 70.00] Here, hold on. +[70.00 --> 71.00] I have actually... +[71.00 --> 72.00] It just smells like old though. +[72.00 --> 73.00] Yeah. +[73.00 --> 74.00] It doesn't smell bad. +[74.00 --> 81.00] I have owned this cape, which goes down to kinda my thighs, since I was small enough that it touched the ground when I walked. +[81.00 --> 82.00] Wow. +[82.00 --> 83.00] Yep. +[83.00 --> 84.00] I have owned this for like 20 years. +[84.00 --> 87.00] Oh, you can tell by like the threading and stuff at the top. +[87.00 --> 88.00] Wow. +[88.00 --> 89.00] Yeah. +[89.00 --> 90.00] It's like... +[90.00 --> 95.00] It's pretty old, but it has served me well through many Halloweens. +[95.00 --> 97.00] And, uh, I forget where I was going with this. +[97.00 --> 98.00] Right. +[98.00 --> 99.00] So that's the history of my... +[99.00 --> 100.00] What are you supposed to be? +[100.00 --> 102.00] Linus has never seen Firefly or Serenity. +[102.00 --> 105.00] So I'm Jane, um, from Firefly. +[105.00 --> 106.00] Really? +[106.00 --> 107.00] You bring a weapon on my show? +[107.00 --> 108.00] Yeah, man. +[108.00 --> 109.00] Chee-chew. +[109.00 --> 110.00] Chee-chew. +[110.00 --> 111.00] That's not all. +[111.00 --> 112.00] I also have a grenade. +[112.00 --> 114.00] That probably sounds amazing. +[114.00 --> 115.00] Wow. +[115.00 --> 119.00] The kinds of explosions that that grenade will set off. +[119.00 --> 127.00] So I have a gun and a grenade, and I have my jeans hat, and I have a brown coat. +[127.00 --> 131.00] So there's, yeah, there's some symbolism that you wouldn't understand, but it's there. +[131.00 --> 133.00] Alright, so we've got a great show for you guys today. +[133.00 --> 135.00] I don't know what the topics are, because I forgot my laptop. +[135.00 --> 137.00] I'm gonna go get those while we roll the intro. +[137.00 --> 138.00] Ah, yes! +[138.00 --> 140.00] Tesla is in trouble again! +[140.00 --> 146.00] Not because they did anything wrong, but because other people are basically buttholes. +[146.00 --> 154.00] Um, also 18-core Xeons are on the way, so prepare your buttholes, because that is going to be pretty fantastic. +[154.00 --> 159.00] I mean, we're already blown away with the kind of performance we're getting from our 12-core Xeon. +[159.00 --> 162.00] Well, that's like six more cores than a 12-core Xeon. +[162.00 --> 163.00] Aw, yeah. +[163.00 --> 164.00] Aw, yeah, baby. +[164.00 --> 166.00] Alienware GPU graphics amplifiers. +[166.00 --> 169.00] We'll explain what exactly that is later. +[169.00 --> 170.00] Graphics amplifier! +[170.00 --> 175.00] And, unsurprisingly, yet again, an Ubisoft developer doesn't understand extremely basic concepts. +[175.00 --> 177.00] And opens his mouth about it. +[177.00 --> 180.00] We're not even going to give any more information than that, but we'll talk about it later on. +[180.00 --> 183.00] I mean, really, is there anything else for us to even say? +[183.00 --> 184.00] Is there really? +[184.00 --> 188.00] That should just be a permanent bullet point, and then we can just swap out the word Ubisoft +[188.00 --> 190.00] for whatever game developer is being stupid this week. +[190.00 --> 193.00] Yeah, the name, and like, what title they're working on. +[193.00 --> 194.00] Yeah! +[194.00 --> 197.00] Alright, intro time. +[197.00 --> 225.00] And our sponsors today are 5-4 Club, which if I knew where the thing was... +[225.00 --> 226.00] Ah, yes! +[226.00 --> 227.00] There we go! +[227.00 --> 228.00] 5-4 Club! +[228.00 --> 233.00] And we're going to have an offer for you today that hopefully I will actually get right. +[233.00 --> 236.00] As well as Dollar Shave Club! +[236.00 --> 237.00] Boopity boop! +[237.00 --> 242.00] Shave time and shave money by having high quality razors delivered directly to your door! +[242.00 --> 247.00] Rather than going to the store and paying too much for them for some reason. +[247.00 --> 251.00] Because paying too much for things is good on The WAN Show. +[251.00 --> 252.00] We like paying too much for things. +[252.00 --> 254.00] Oh wait, that's not our principle at all, is it? +[254.00 --> 258.00] All of our sponsors today are about spending less money and less time on things. +[258.00 --> 259.00] That's interesting. +[259.00 --> 261.00] That is actually kind of interesting. +[261.00 --> 262.00] Spending... +[262.00 --> 264.00] So you don't have to leave your house. +[264.00 --> 265.00] Our sponsors today... +[265.00 --> 267.00] And you can be groomed and look good when you do. +[267.00 --> 268.00] Yeah! +[268.00 --> 273.00] So you don't have to like go out there and do anything, but if you really need to, you +[273.00 --> 274.00] can leave the house in style. +[274.00 --> 281.00] So you'll always look good, because you never have to go out to retrieve supplies to look good. +[281.00 --> 282.00] You'll look good without planning. +[282.00 --> 285.00] You never have to do that like chores or errands look. +[285.00 --> 286.00] Yeah. +[286.00 --> 287.00] Where it's like all crap. +[287.00 --> 290.00] Yeah, it's like actually I'm in my PJs with like... +[290.00 --> 291.00] I just do that permanently though. +[291.00 --> 292.00] Yeah, I know. +[292.00 --> 294.00] So that's a sad thing. +[294.00 --> 298.00] Okay, well I'm going to let you do the first topic here, because I need to go get my laptop, +[298.00 --> 299.00] because I forgot it, so... +[299.00 --> 301.00] Because you're super ready for the show today. +[301.00 --> 302.00] Caped badass away! +[302.00 --> 304.00] Ow! +[304.00 --> 306.00] Ha ha ha ha ha! +[306.00 --> 310.00] I'm sorry! +[310.00 --> 314.00] He tripped on his headphone cable when he was trying to leave the room and like actually +[314.00 --> 318.00] fell over while doing the caped badass thing, which was absolutely perfect. +[318.00 --> 320.00] Sorry, that was really funny. +[320.00 --> 323.00] Anyways, Tesla runs into trouble again as we were talking about earlier. +[323.00 --> 329.00] The US government is giving GM and other manufacturers and automakers in general preferential treatment, +[329.00 --> 330.00] which is quite annoying. +[330.00 --> 334.00] They're doing that because they're setting a law in, I believe, Michigan? +[334.00 --> 337.00] Yeah, where you have to sell your car through an independent dealership. +[337.00 --> 340.00] You can't do the showroom thing that Tesla likes doing. +[340.00 --> 344.00] I've been talking about this kind of stuff all over the states for a long time. +[344.00 --> 348.00] But this is more a targeted experience. +[348.00 --> 355.00] So the Michigan law forbids having galleries, like I was just discussing, and Michigan customers would still be able to buy the vehicles online, +[355.00 --> 362.00] or travel out of state to a corporate owned store out of state, which I think is ridiculously silly. +[362.00 --> 370.00] You don't want them to be able to go to a gallery showroom where they would actually at least be able to sit in and see the car before buying it, +[370.00 --> 373.00] but you're totally okay with them buying it online. +[373.00 --> 375.00] What? +[375.00 --> 377.00] That makes no sense at all. +[377.00 --> 380.00] Like, there's a, like, ugh. +[380.00 --> 387.00] The independent dealership part already doesn't make sense because I hate dealing with independent dealerships every single time I have to, +[387.00 --> 390.00] which has been once, but still. +[390.00 --> 392.00] It sucked. +[392.00 --> 396.00] I've done it two and it sucked for me too, so that's a sample size of at least two. +[396.00 --> 398.00] Oh man, absolutely fantastic. +[398.00 --> 402.00] This is definitely all the sample size you would need for running an actual study of everything. +[402.00 --> 410.00] And I mean, the issue is that I, like, I get independent dealerships when they have a specific value add. +[410.00 --> 411.00] Yes. +[411.00 --> 414.00] Beyond what the manufacturer is able to do for some reason. +[414.00 --> 421.00] But if the manufacturer chooses not to work through an independent dealership, then that should be their right. +[421.00 --> 424.00] You shouldn't mandate middlemen. +[424.00 --> 428.00] If you could do that, you should be able to mandate out Apple stores. +[428.00 --> 438.00] I mean, the merchant, the merchant class sprung up because their entire job was to facilitate the movement of goods from one place to another. +[438.00 --> 452.00] So they were actually, you know, you would actually get, you know, silk from here and then you would take it over there and you would sell the silk and you would buy gems and you'd take it over there, buy low, sell high, the whole, you know, being a merchant thing. +[452.00 --> 453.00] Moving it around, yeah. +[453.00 --> 468.00] Being a merchant isn't about sitting on your butt in one place with the regulatory bodies just telling you, telling, telling consumers and telling manufacturers that they all have to go be routed through you so you can take a cut. +[468.00 --> 471.00] Like, how does that, how does that make any sense? +[471.00 --> 473.00] How does that help us progress? +[473.00 --> 478.00] How does the rest of the world not completely leave the U.S. behind in the dark ages? +[478.00 --> 485.00] And I don't, I don't understand, like I would, I would understand way more if say Tesla was like a non-American company. +[485.00 --> 486.00] I don't care where they're from. +[486.00 --> 488.00] If they were just a non-American company in general. +[488.00 --> 490.00] So these laws were to try to help American companies. +[490.00 --> 492.00] Tesla's an American company. +[492.00 --> 494.00] They manufacture in the States. +[494.00 --> 504.00] You're barring a company that manufactures their cars in the States against companies that you're not barring, which in a lot of cases don't. +[504.00 --> 506.00] Which is so stupid. +[506.00 --> 508.00] A lot of cars are manufactured in Mexico. +[508.00 --> 517.00] I don't know a ton about car manufacturing, but I know that there's a lot of cars manufactured in Mexico that are not going to have to go through the hoops that Tesla has to go through. +[517.00 --> 519.00] And they're manufacturing, designing everything in the States. +[519.00 --> 521.00] Or even making their batteries in the States. +[521.00 --> 524.00] They're planning on putting that battery manufacturing plant in Nevada. +[524.00 --> 526.00] So like, what are you trying to accomplish here? +[526.00 --> 530.00] This is a new, really exciting company that's coming out of the States. +[530.00 --> 534.00] It's like they're determined to make them not want to stay there. +[534.00 --> 535.00] Yeah. +[535.00 --> 540.00] Like, I think the only reason why they're staying there is because like Elon likes the States. +[540.00 --> 542.00] So, you're freaking lucky. +[542.00 --> 544.00] Elon kind of does as he pleases, doesn't he? +[544.00 --> 545.00] Yeah, he pretty much does. +[545.00 --> 548.00] Alright, have we already talked about Apple versus retailers? +[548.00 --> 549.00] Nope. +[549.00 --> 550.00] The war on NFC payment technology. +[550.00 --> 555.00] So, Apple Pay is not exactly revolutionary or groundbreaking. +[555.00 --> 559.00] I mean, Google Wallet's been available for something like four years? +[559.00 --> 560.00] Yeah. +[560.00 --> 561.00] Or something like that? +[561.00 --> 562.00] Yeah. +[562.00 --> 563.00] I don't think it's been super widely used. +[563.00 --> 564.00] No, no. +[564.00 --> 566.00] It hasn't been super widely used. +[566.00 --> 568.00] It hasn't been super widely publicized. +[568.00 --> 573.00] It's one of those things where Google introduced the tech and basically went, yeah, use it or don't or whatever. +[573.00 --> 574.00] Yeah. +[574.00 --> 575.00] And that's fine. +[575.00 --> 583.00] But Apple Pay, pretty much just for those of you who aren't familiar, uses an NFC chip in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus in order to enable it. +[583.00 --> 587.00] And I think the new iPads also have it as well. +[587.00 --> 588.00] Really? +[588.00 --> 589.00] Yeah. +[589.00 --> 590.00] Trying to pay with this giant iPad. +[590.00 --> 591.00] Could be wrong about that one. +[591.00 --> 596.00] I hope I'm wrong about that one because that's going to be a whole new level of pad hole. +[596.00 --> 599.00] Like, you can take your pictures of your crew in the restaurant. +[599.00 --> 600.00] Selfie. +[600.00 --> 601.00] Yeah. +[601.00 --> 602.00] iPad selfie. +[602.00 --> 603.00] Yeah. +[603.00 --> 604.00] Yeah. +[604.00 --> 605.00] And like, iPad tap to pay. +[605.00 --> 608.00] You can take your selfie with your iPhone as you pay with your iPad just to show how stupid it is. +[608.00 --> 609.00] That would be fantastic. +[609.00 --> 618.00] Oh, so, so anyway, so it's, it uses the NFC chip, unfortunately, for what is the least useful thing possible for me because Apple Pay isn't even rolled out in Canada. +[618.00 --> 623.00] There is no timeline for Canada and I really wish we were able to do simple things like file transfers and stuff like that. +[623.00 --> 624.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[624.00 --> 628.00] Um, but no, no, Apple needs to forge their own path, don't they? +[628.00 --> 639.00] So, so basically it uses your NFC chip at those same terminals that if you're in an enlightened country like Australia of all places, for some reason it's like way ahead of the rest of the world on this stuff, +[639.00 --> 645.00] allows you to simply tap your device, authenticate using a, a pin code or your touch ID even, +[645.00 --> 654.00] and then pay for something with a debit or credit card without ever actually giving the retailer access to those credit card numbers or anything like that. +[654.00 --> 655.00] Yeah. +[655.00 --> 666.00] So that huge target breach, that huge Home Depot breach, we're talking 40 and 56 million customer credit cards that were compromised in each of those ones respectively, +[666.00 --> 669.00] if I have those numbers correct, don't quote me on that. +[669.00 --> 678.00] There, there would be no potential for that if you used Apple Pay for everything because the idea is that it actually stores the information in the same place on the phone as your touch ID information, +[678.00 --> 685.00] which is not sent to Apple servers. Very freaking cool stuff. Of course you have to register the bank accounts and credit cards and all that, +[685.00 --> 696.00] but the point is, the idea is that it will be more secure and Apple's taking a fairly small cut on top of what a credit card would already be taking. +[696.00 --> 697.00] Right, right. +[697.00 --> 705.00] I think it's, shoot, now this is, this is a detail that I actually forget. Um, I think it's 0.15%. +[705.00 --> 706.00] I'm not sure. +[706.00 --> 721.00] Apple Pay fee 0.15. I'm going to try searching for that. Yeah. Apple gets 0.15% cut of the purchase. So actually they're not trying to go in, be a credit card with credit card like margins. +[721.00 --> 728.00] I mean, often credit cards are in the three plus percent range range. I hope you guys realize that when you buy something with a credit card, +[728.00 --> 733.00] every retailer in the world that accepts credit cards is basically just increasing their prices by three and a half, +[733.00 --> 741.00] four and a half percent in order to compensate for that because they take those rewards that you get that are from the air miles, +[741.00 --> 745.00] cash back. They're just giving you back some of what they already took from you. +[745.00 --> 750.00] The reason why they're pushing people to use credit cards and giving them these reward programs is because they skim money off it all the time. +[750.00 --> 757.00] Yeah. It's not even necessarily because of the interest they get from you not paying it because you don't understand compound interest. +[757.00 --> 761.00] But, so anyway, Apple's pitch to the banks in the States was, look, we're going to increase security. +[761.00 --> 770.00] We're going to reduce credit card fraud, which should reduce your insurance premiums because every time someone fraudulently uses your credit card to buy a Hummer, +[770.00 --> 782.00] either kind of course, any time someone uses your credit card to make some kind of a purchase and that item doesn't get tracked down and returned, +[782.00 --> 790.00] well, somebody has to pay for that. And because of credit card fraud prevention and the way that most credit card issuers will protect the consumer, +[790.00 --> 795.00] you're going to get a refund as long as you follow the proper steps in order to report that stuff. +[795.00 --> 805.00] Someone has to pay for that. So if Apple kind of goes, well, look, any of our customers who use your card through Apple pay will reduce the potential for fraudulent use, +[805.00 --> 811.00] making life easier for you guys. Well, hey, that's worth the 0.15%, isn't it? We're making life better for everyone. +[811.00 --> 819.00] Well, retailers are butthurt now apparently, which is pretty frustrating to me. +[819.00 --> 829.00] And it looks like even though we're not getting statements from companies like CVS and Rite Aid in the U.S. that have stopped accepting Apple Pay, +[829.00 --> 833.00] I mean, we're talking some retailers, you actually, Apple Pay was working? +[833.00 --> 835.00] Yeah, and then they stopped. +[835.00 --> 837.00] Was working. And then they shut it off. +[837.00 --> 838.00] Yeah. +[838.00 --> 842.00] And you'll get an error message on the cashier. You can actually see the error message. It says, +[842.00 --> 862.00] Apple Pay not supported or something like that. And they're not issuing statements necessarily, but the speculation is that they're developing their own NFC payment software in order to save the 2 to 3% per transaction that they would normally have to pay to now Apple plus a credit card company or bank or whatever else the case may be. +[862.00 --> 886.00] I mean, normally I'm not a huge fan of any kind of proprietary standard, but the thing about Apple's proprietary standard here is all you really have to do is give them a fee that is going to save you money and effort in the big picture in order to manage this system that really anyone, as long as they cooperate, can buy into. +[886.00 --> 892.00] Wouldn't you have to pay the Apple fee and the credit card fee? So wouldn't it not save you money in the future? Wouldn't it cost you- +[892.00 --> 899.00] Not for the retailer, yes. But the retailer should be more concerned about the customer experience in my mind. +[899.00 --> 900.00] Yeah. +[900.00 --> 913.00] The retailer is going to want to be as appealing as possible. I mean, I forget what the number is, but I think they've got over a million people activated on Apple Pay already. Like, massive, massive numbers. +[913.00 --> 925.00] So if you're a retailer and you kind of sit there and go, oh, well gee, I guess I want 0.3% of the population who are evidently all interested in this easier, more secure way to pay for things. +[925.00 --> 931.00] I guess I want them to not shop at my store because I'd rather release my own competing standard. +[931.00 --> 945.00] I mean, at least the thing about Apple is that their standard will not help a direct, unless you directly compete with the Apple store. Their standard, paying Apple to use it will not directly help a competitor. +[945.00 --> 958.00] Whereas if we have every pharmacy chain and every clothing chain coming up with their own NFC payment systems that you have to have your own app and you have to enter the payment information and you have to have separate management tools. +[958.00 --> 964.00] Well, that is much more fragmented than even Apple's still relatively closed garden system. +[964.00 --> 972.00] I don't know if it's actually going to stop people from shopping at certain stores because I'm sure they'll still carry their debit and or credit cards with them. +[972.00 --> 982.00] So I don't know if it'll actually stop them at least yet, but it could be a future thing where you want to stop carrying cards entirely when a lot more stores are picking it up and a lot more people are using this type of technology. +[982.00 --> 1000.00] But that's exactly what we want. Okay, so two things. First of all, I disagree. I think that for certain people, for tech enthusiasts who are like into that, they will look if it's if it's like I'm standing here and there's Walgreens and there's CVS and one of them takes Apple Pay and one of them doesn't. +[1000.00 --> 1004.00] I think the tech geek in me goes, I'm going to go to Walgreens. +[1004.00 --> 1007.00] Really? Yeah, for sure. Why not? I could not give a crap. +[1007.00 --> 1019.00] The pricing is basically similar. So let's say all other things equal. They both carry, you know, XL size condoms, the kind I need. Right? So it doesn't matter which one I go into. +[1019.00 --> 1027.00] I'll be safe either way. Okay. I love how it's not like brand or reliability. It's just like sizing. Yeah. +[1027.00 --> 1035.00] My gun just fell out. That was pretty good timing. Your gun fell out? Did it leave a mess in your pouch there? Yeah. +[1035.00 --> 1041.00] I mean, this show is awful. Yeah. Speaking of this show is awful, my mom watched the mineral oil video. Oh yeah. +[1041.00 --> 1047.00] And was like, oh, it was so awesome. And so it didn't bring up like the endless amount of innuendos. +[1047.00 --> 1055.00] It's like, thanks mom. I mean, you know what? Here, I want to hear from you guys. Let's do a Twitter blitz. So hit me at... +[1055.00 --> 1061.00] Would it change your purchasing decision? Yeah. Would it change your purchasing decision? And let's not lock it into Apple Pay. +[1061.00 --> 1067.00] I don't want this to be about Apple Pay necessarily. I want this to be about more progressive payment technologies. +[1067.00 --> 1075.00] So let's say the shop supports Google Wallet or Apple Pay or some kind of cool touchless smartphone enabled payment technology that you care about. +[1075.00 --> 1084.00] I just... See, my thing is I care less... Like I still think it's cool, but I care less about that than other metrics. +[1084.00 --> 1088.00] Now, if it's going with what you're saying where the stores are exactly identical... +[1088.00 --> 1089.00] Yeah. +[1089.00 --> 1091.00] ...other than the NFC Pay thing, like sure, I'll go there. +[1091.00 --> 1100.00] But like the store I buy video games from because I really like that store and I want to be able to support them because they're cool. +[1100.00 --> 1101.00] Right. +[1101.00 --> 1114.00] I'm not going to stop going there because they don't have an NFC payment system because they probably wouldn't be the first ones to adopt that because they're this tiny little store and changing things like their debit machines is probably not something they're super worried about. +[1114.00 --> 1121.00] So this might come down to more like five years from now, eight years from now when everyone has NFC payment systems, but it's going to come down to... +[1121.00 --> 1123.00] Because it's default on the debit machines that you buy. +[1123.00 --> 1129.00] Right. So it's going to come down to do they support the system that you use most in your daily life? +[1129.00 --> 1130.00] Yeah. +[1130.00 --> 1143.00] Like if you're a Google Wallet user or you're a, you know, Apple Pay user, do you go to the one that supports the one that you generally use or do you go to the one that's a pain in the butt because they have their own stupid proprietary thing? +[1143.00 --> 1154.00] So as it happens, the retailers that we were talking about are members of MCX and they're working on their own mobile payment system, Current C. +[1154.00 --> 1157.00] Currency, haha, currency, get it? But modern? +[1157.00 --> 1158.00] Ohhhhhhhhhh. +[1158.00 --> 1159.00] Currency, actually I think it's kind of clever. +[1159.00 --> 1161.00] Which is in beta and expected to launch next year. +[1161.00 --> 1163.00] It requires you to scan a barcode though. +[1163.00 --> 1167.00] There's like a QR code involved as well, I think, in order to make payments. +[1167.00 --> 1175.00] And it's something that's been proven as not being as secure as near field communication and other encrypted technologies that are used by Apple Pay and Google Wallet. +[1175.00 --> 1180.00] So here we go, Twitter Blitz time. +[1180.00 --> 1185.00] Apple Pay and Google Wallet are just niche services so they can tick off boxes on their marketing. +[1185.00 --> 1187.00] PayPal should be introduced first. +[1187.00 --> 1188.00] Interesting point. +[1188.00 --> 1189.00] I would use PayPal. +[1189.00 --> 1190.00] Yeah, I would uh... +[1190.00 --> 1193.00] I would use your PayPal app to pay for things. +[1193.00 --> 1195.00] Yeah, I would probably be interested in PayPal as well. +[1195.00 --> 1196.00] I generally like PayPal. +[1196.00 --> 1200.00] I think it should have been making more progress in the last few years. +[1200.00 --> 1201.00] Um... +[1201.00 --> 1205.00] It feels like PayPal had such an opportunity to do a Bitcoin-y type thing. +[1205.00 --> 1206.00] Or something. +[1206.00 --> 1207.00] Or something. +[1207.00 --> 1208.00] Yeah. +[1208.00 --> 1210.00] Like there was room for innovation there. +[1210.00 --> 1211.00] Um... +[1211.00 --> 1217.00] Elon, the guy who, like, co-started it or whatever, has publicly talked about how they've been kind of disappointing. +[1217.00 --> 1218.00] Right. +[1218.00 --> 1219.00] Lately. +[1219.00 --> 1223.00] Okay, a little off topic, but if a store supports Google Wallet, will they automatically support Apple Pay? +[1223.00 --> 1224.00] In some cases, yes. +[1224.00 --> 1229.00] Apple Pay was just working, even though they weren't on Apple's list of launch retailers. +[1229.00 --> 1232.00] Actually, the ones we're talking about are great examples of that. +[1232.00 --> 1237.00] And the funny thing about these guys is they've also turned off Google Wallet at the same time. +[1237.00 --> 1238.00] Oh, wow. +[1238.00 --> 1240.00] Even though Google Wallet's been working now for years. +[1240.00 --> 1241.00] Wow. +[1241.00 --> 1242.00] Yeah. +[1242.00 --> 1243.00] Um, okay. +[1243.00 --> 1246.00] Honestly, no one can hack cash, so that's what I use. +[1246.00 --> 1247.00] Well, there are other issues with cash. +[1247.00 --> 1248.00] Yeah. +[1248.00 --> 1250.00] Um, you can hack cash in real life. +[1250.00 --> 1251.00] You know, like, where's that gun? +[1251.00 --> 1252.00] That crowbar. +[1252.00 --> 1254.00] That gun, that crowbar. +[1254.00 --> 1258.00] Do we look like people who could hack cash? +[1258.00 --> 1259.00] Hack your cash, bro. +[1259.00 --> 1260.00] We need a shirt. +[1260.00 --> 1261.00] We do. +[1261.00 --> 1262.00] Cash hackers. +[1262.00 --> 1263.00] I have a grenade too. +[1263.00 --> 1264.00] Cash hackers. +[1264.00 --> 1265.00] Just cause it makes no sense. +[1265.00 --> 1266.00] Ah! +[1266.00 --> 1272.00] Anyways, um, if your credit card's stolen, they can reverse a lot of the charges that happened +[1272.00 --> 1273.00] on it. +[1273.00 --> 1275.00] If your cash is stolen, you're screwed. +[1275.00 --> 1276.00] Your cash is just gone. +[1276.00 --> 1277.00] Yeah. +[1277.00 --> 1279.00] Uh, that's actually in line with Josh's comment here. +[1279.00 --> 1281.00] Cash is always going to be there. +[1281.00 --> 1282.00] Nope. +[1282.00 --> 1285.00] I don't care about any of them because no one accepts them here. +[1285.00 --> 1286.00] Good point. +[1286.00 --> 1291.00] And it's the same in Canada, but we should still look to this technology as an indication +[1291.00 --> 1292.00] of what's coming in the future. +[1292.00 --> 1297.00] Um, I would go to the store that supports the technology because I want to spread the +[1297.00 --> 1298.00] tech and make it more pervasive. +[1298.00 --> 1299.00] And that is a very- +[1299.00 --> 1300.00] That's always a thing. +[1300.00 --> 1301.00] Yeah. +[1301.00 --> 1302.00] That's a compelling reason to do it. +[1302.00 --> 1303.00] That's a voting with your wallet. +[1303.00 --> 1304.00] That's like, literally voting with your wallet. +[1304.00 --> 1305.00] Literally. +[1305.00 --> 1306.00] Your Google wallet. +[1306.00 --> 1307.00] Yeah. +[1307.00 --> 1308.00] Or voting with your pay. +[1308.00 --> 1309.00] Your Apple pay. +[1309.00 --> 1310.00] Nah. +[1310.00 --> 1315.00] See, this is an even more badass fist bump because it's got the cat sleeves and the +[1315.00 --> 1316.00] jacket. +[1316.00 --> 1317.00] Anyway. +[1317.00 --> 1318.00] Name here. +[1318.00 --> 1321.00] It would totally sway my choice. +[1321.00 --> 1322.00] Not really in Oz. +[1322.00 --> 1325.00] It is 50-50 to get PayWave as it is when they do have it. +[1325.00 --> 1326.00] It is so much easier. +[1326.00 --> 1327.00] Yeah. +[1327.00 --> 1328.00] So PayWave is their NFC thing. +[1328.00 --> 1330.00] I think we call it PayPass here in Canada. +[1330.00 --> 1331.00] Yeah, but like- +[1331.00 --> 1332.00] Like, never works. +[1332.00 --> 1336.00] And every single machine you see has a little sticker on it, PayPass not working. +[1336.00 --> 1337.00] Yeah. +[1337.00 --> 1338.00] Or something. +[1338.00 --> 1339.00] If I had it, I would use it like a boss. +[1339.00 --> 1344.00] Um, S Oliver says, cash or cards are obsolete, but NFC payments are still too scary or sketchy +[1344.00 --> 1346.00] to me, although I know how they work. +[1346.00 --> 1347.00] Very interesting. +[1347.00 --> 1349.00] We should probably do a fastest possible episode on NFC payments. +[1349.00 --> 1350.00] Probably. +[1350.00 --> 1353.00] Just try and cut through some of the garbage information that's out there about it. +[1353.00 --> 1354.00] Yeah. +[1354.00 --> 1355.00] Yeah. +[1355.00 --> 1356.00] Yes. +[1356.00 --> 1359.00] All else being equal, I would go to the place with the more progressive payment style, says +[1359.00 --> 1360.00] Joe Zoo. +[1360.00 --> 1361.00] Uh, Josh says, nope. +[1361.00 --> 1366.00] It's just another iteration of something like PayPal or Bitcoin, which is not really anything- +[1366.00 --> 1367.00] Actually, it's not really anything like- +[1367.00 --> 1368.00] No. +[1368.00 --> 1369.00] Like PayPal or Bitcoin. +[1369.00 --> 1370.00] No. +[1370.00 --> 1373.00] Because you're still just using your debit account or your credit account. +[1373.00 --> 1376.00] It's just another way of accessing it without a card, electronically. +[1376.00 --> 1377.00] Yeah. +[1377.00 --> 1378.00] Hi, Jack. +[1378.00 --> 1380.00] Oh, would you- Oh. +[1380.00 --> 1382.00] Oh, everything else being equal, sure. +[1382.00 --> 1384.00] I'd take the store that makes buying things easier. +[1384.00 --> 1388.00] I mean, I think the web- Here, we're gonna, uh, we're gonna de-Twitter blitzify this here. +[1388.00 --> 1390.00] I think the web has proven that. +[1390.00 --> 1392.00] Look at Amazon's model. +[1392.00 --> 1394.00] Do they have the lowest price? +[1394.00 --> 1395.00] Not necessarily. +[1395.00 --> 1396.00] They're just the easiest to deal with. +[1396.00 --> 1398.00] In fact, a lot of the times they don't. +[1398.00 --> 1400.00] Why are they so big? +[1400.00 --> 1403.00] Because they make shopping easy and brainless. +[1403.00 --> 1407.00] They have everything and you can order with one click- +[1407.00 --> 1410.00] And their customer service is, like, very well known everywhere. +[1410.00 --> 1411.00] Yep. +[1411.00 --> 1412.00] Talked about widely. +[1412.00 --> 1414.00] And you don't have to do any thinking. +[1414.00 --> 1417.00] You don't have to think about, oh, how much is the shipping gonna cost? +[1417.00 --> 1419.00] And you don't usually have to worry about it being late. +[1419.00 --> 1422.00] Usually, more often than not, they're early if it has to be late or early. +[1422.00 --> 1423.00] They're usually early. +[1423.00 --> 1424.00] That's right. +[1424.00 --> 1429.00] I had a shipment that was supposed to show up in, like, I think it was seven to ten business days and it was there the next day. +[1429.00 --> 1430.00] I was like, what? +[1430.00 --> 1435.00] That, that to me is, is the biggest thing that retailers should be looking at. +[1435.00 --> 1442.00] If they're trying to decide, should we support Apple Pay or Google Wallet or MCX's upcoming standard or whatever else? +[1442.00 --> 1444.00] And the answer should be yes. +[1444.00 --> 1448.00] Because you want your store to be easy to shop at. +[1448.00 --> 1451.00] That being said, Amazon doesn't accept PayPal. +[1451.00 --> 1456.00] Amazon doesn't accept PayPal, which is actually, continues to be a frustration for me. +[1456.00 --> 1463.00] And if someone were to rise up and be otherwise equal to Amazon in every other way, I would choose the one that takes PayPal personally. +[1463.00 --> 1465.00] What's that, what's that thing from the Wall-E movie, Buy and... +[1465.00 --> 1466.00] Buy and large. +[1466.00 --> 1467.00] Buy and large. +[1467.00 --> 1468.00] Yeah. +[1468.00 --> 1470.00] I'm waiting for Costco to go e-tail. +[1470.00 --> 1472.00] Because I just have a feeling that would be awesome. +[1472.00 --> 1473.00] Costco's badass. +[1473.00 --> 1474.00] I love Costco. +[1474.00 --> 1475.00] I'd be down for Costco e-tail. +[1475.00 --> 1476.00] Alright. +[1476.00 --> 1480.00] So our next, actually, have we called out the people who posted these on the forum? +[1480.00 --> 1488.00] Okay, so that was LJKS Snow that posted the Apple versus retailers topic and Victorious Secret that posted the Tesla one. +[1488.00 --> 1494.00] And our original articles were from finance.yahoo.com and WashingtonPost.com. +[1494.00 --> 1498.00] So let's move on to some good news, some exciting news. +[1498.00 --> 1501.00] This was posted by XACRAF on the forum. +[1501.00 --> 1506.00] The original article here is from DigiTimes and this looks freaking awesome. +[1506.00 --> 1513.00] When I heard the announcement for this, I'm not even going to say what it is yet, but when I heard the announcement for this, I assumed it was coming way further in the future than it is. +[1513.00 --> 1514.00] Mm-hmm. +[1514.00 --> 1518.00] I didn't expect quarter two 2015 according to DigiTimes. +[1518.00 --> 1520.00] Now this is rumor. +[1520.00 --> 1524.00] There's no content from that comment, not content, comment from Intel yet. +[1524.00 --> 1526.00] Yeah, Intel won't say anything about it. +[1526.00 --> 1527.00] But... +[1527.00 --> 1536.00] Apparently, as we said in the topic call out, the 18-core Zeon E7 V3 Haswell-E3 is coming. +[1536.00 --> 1541.00] So, we have more videos on Edsel's processor coming, don't we? +[1541.00 --> 1542.00] Yes, we do. +[1542.00 --> 1546.00] So the whole room water cooling loop thing, we'll talk about temperatures and stuff a little bit. +[1546.00 --> 1551.00] And we have a video upcoming where we got our hands on a 128-gig kit of RAM. +[1551.00 --> 1561.00] And Edsel's actually spent most of this week benchmarking various numbers of cores and various amounts of RAM in Premiere and After Effects +[1561.00 --> 1567.00] to have a look at where the sweet spot is for processing cores and RAM and how those relate to each other. +[1567.00 --> 1569.00] So that should be a really cool video for content creators. +[1569.00 --> 1570.00] Yeah, that should be really cool. +[1570.00 --> 1572.00] There we go, my screen sharing. +[1572.00 --> 1573.00] Hooray! +[1573.00 --> 1575.00] So this one's actually the article on Kit Guru. +[1575.00 --> 1589.00] But this bad boy, a Zeon E7 V3 Haswell EX chip with 18 hyper-threaded cores, quad-channel DDR4 memory support, +[1589.00 --> 1598.00] integrated PCI Express 3.0 and rumored, according to DigiTimes, to be available in Q2 2015. +[1598.00 --> 1603.00] However, the DigiTimes article is down, and this one specifically says Intel is not commenting on it. +[1603.00 --> 1610.00] So I wonder if our link to the DigiTimes one is bad for some reason or whatever else is happening. +[1610.00 --> 1617.00] Yeah, so I don't know, there isn't a ton of groundbreaking stuff here other than the fact that it has a butt-ton of cores. +[1617.00 --> 1618.00] Yeah. +[1618.00 --> 1619.00] There's not really a lot else going on other than that. +[1619.00 --> 1622.00] We're talking like a Nicki Minaj worth of cores. +[1622.00 --> 1623.00] Oh yeah. +[1623.00 --> 1624.00] Yeah. +[1624.00 --> 1625.00] Yeah. +[1625.00 --> 1627.00] My Anaconda wants some of that. +[1627.00 --> 1628.00] Does it? +[1628.00 --> 1629.00] Well, CPU cores, not really Nicki Minaj. +[1629.00 --> 1630.00] She's a little old for me. +[1630.00 --> 1631.00] Is she? +[1631.00 --> 1632.00] Yeah! +[1632.00 --> 1633.00] How old is she? +[1633.00 --> 1636.00] I think she's like well into her 30s or something. +[1636.00 --> 1637.00] Oh. +[1637.00 --> 1639.00] Nicki Minaj, I don't even know how to spell her name. +[1639.00 --> 1640.00] Oops. +[1640.00 --> 1641.00] Nicki Minaj age. +[1641.00 --> 1642.00] I don't know. +[1642.00 --> 1643.00] She's 31. +[1643.00 --> 1644.00] Oh, never mind. +[1644.00 --> 1646.00] Okay, she's not as old as I thought she was. +[1646.00 --> 1647.00] Never mind. +[1647.00 --> 1649.00] She would still be an older lady for me though. +[1649.00 --> 1651.00] Cougar town. +[1651.00 --> 1652.00] I'm... +[1652.00 --> 1654.00] That and I'm married, I guess. +[1654.00 --> 1655.00] That might be an issue. +[1655.00 --> 1663.28] So, okay, this is not a tech topic, but one of my old co-workers got married, didn't tell +[1663.28 --> 1669.76] me, didn't have any ceremony, has no ring, went to the courthouse because he lives in +[1669.76 --> 1677.14] Toronto and he and his now wife, I guess, both work in the IT industry and they were both +[1677.14 --> 1678.74] in Vancouver on travel. +[1678.74 --> 1683.52] And when you're in Toronto, I think it's like an eight week process to get a civil union marriage +[1683.52 --> 1684.58] certificate thing. +[1684.58 --> 1688.38] And when you're in Vancouver, I think it's three weeks to get everything pushed through +[1688.38 --> 1689.62] and make it official. +[1689.62 --> 1695.76] So while they were here, they were, they're trying to move to the US and I think she has +[1695.76 --> 1699.90] a green card and he doesn't or something and citizenship or whatever. +[1699.90 --> 1702.34] So they had to contact someone, they contacted you? +[1702.34 --> 1703.34] So, what? +[1703.34 --> 1704.34] No, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[1704.34 --> 1705.34] He was just telling me he got married. +[1705.34 --> 1706.34] Oh, by the way, I got married. +[1706.34 --> 1709.72] I'm like, thanks for the invitation to your wedding, jackass. +[1709.72 --> 1712.72] And he was like, well, there wasn't a wedding or a honeymoon. +[1712.72 --> 1716.88] Our honeymoon was like, we drove down to Seattle and both met with clients. +[1716.88 --> 1720.02] And I'm just like, no, you're terrible. +[1720.02 --> 1720.88] You're a bad person. +[1720.88 --> 1725.14] So anyway, apparently they, they, they just spontaneously. +[1725.14 --> 1726.32] And it was her idea. +[1726.32 --> 1728.92] Apparently she was just like, oh, Hey, we're both in Vancouver. +[1728.92 --> 1735.22] We should probably get that marriage thing done so that everything goes through more quickly. +[1735.22 --> 1739.68] And he's like, yeah, I guess I should go to London drugs and like get the paperwork for him. +[1739.68 --> 1747.48] Can you imagine if you could find a lady who is so pragmatic that you could get away with something like that? +[1748.06 --> 1749.32] That's, that's probably who I'm going to ask. +[1749.32 --> 1750.20] Is that your dream lady? +[1750.28 --> 1750.80] Yeah, probably. +[1751.48 --> 1752.84] I don't, I don't know. +[1752.92 --> 1754.78] I don't know where you find these ladies. +[1754.86 --> 1755.34] Cause I mean, okay. +[1755.48 --> 1760.86] My wife is pretty practical and she's pretty down to earth, but she wanted a wedding, man. +[1761.02 --> 1762.02] She wanted a wedding. +[1762.26 --> 1767.32] She wanted a ring, big ring, big wedding, honeymoon. +[1767.32 --> 1769.38] You don't get out of that stuff. +[1770.02 --> 1770.64] I don't know. +[1770.66 --> 1771.74] I don't know how you pulled this off. +[1772.22 --> 1772.56] I don't know. +[1772.76 --> 1777.70] As generations get younger, weddings and rings and stuff are slowly becoming less and less of a thing. +[1779.34 --> 1781.36] Marriage is even becoming less and less of a thing. +[1781.54 --> 1782.76] This isn't a tech topic. +[1782.86 --> 1784.04] We should probably move on. +[1784.12 --> 1784.38] All right. +[1784.40 --> 1792.16] So Apple watch OS running on an iPhone is, this is kind of a speculative article from a nine to five. +[1792.30 --> 1794.16] Mac actually did a really great job of this. +[1794.16 --> 1797.56] This was, this was originally posted on the forum by dayo 26. +[1798.16 --> 1799.54] So let's go ahead and pop this up. +[1799.62 --> 1802.38] And I love this article. +[1802.64 --> 1803.34] One quick thing. +[1803.46 --> 1803.68] Yes. +[1803.70 --> 1805.38] It's not Apple watch OS. +[1806.06 --> 1806.82] Yeah, it's not. +[1806.90 --> 1807.28] At all. +[1807.46 --> 1807.94] We're talking. +[1808.16 --> 1808.52] Not even slightly. +[1808.62 --> 1808.94] Thank you. +[1809.08 --> 1812.68] We're not talking about Apple watch OS running on iPhones in the future. +[1812.68 --> 1825.92] We're talking about the, the, the UI design with the apps being just kind of in this, this kind of scatter array versus the tidy, less dense grid. +[1825.92 --> 1830.68] We're talking about that potentially coming to the iPhone. +[1830.68 --> 1832.82] I was amazed at how well this worked. +[1833.14 --> 1849.08] This is brilliant because this is what I was, in my iPhone six review, my biggest criticism of the phone was the way that Apple just didn't innovate when they had to. +[1849.08 --> 1854.16] They should, they should have iOS eight should have come with this already. +[1854.16 --> 1862.48] So I'm still going to be critical, even if they do roll this out, because the device has outgrown the way that Apple expects you to interact with it. +[1862.52 --> 1873.02] The, the app ecosystem, I mean, back when the, and this article does a great job, great article on nine to five Mac, because when the app, when the iPhone first launched with iPhone OS, which is what we used to call it. +[1873.02 --> 1880.92] There weren't really many third party apps. You didn't need to organize things into folders. There, there wasn't that much to do. +[1880.92 --> 1881.18] Yeah. +[1881.18 --> 1891.90] And because every phone could be operated one handed by most people, stuff that you, you know, highest priority stuff could automatically go to the top left corner and you could actually reach that. +[1891.96 --> 1898.16] But nowadays it's the bottom right to center of the screen. That's actually easiest to access. And I love what they've done here. +[1898.16 --> 1904.38] Now I, I don't even necessarily like this because you've seen how I use things. My, my desktop on my phone is blank. +[1904.38 --> 1917.06] Um, not even kidding. My default, like the first page you go to on my phone is blank. My desktop on all of my computers are, uh, view do not show icons so that I have no icons, including no recycle bin. +[1917.16 --> 1926.18] Cause I don't like anything being there. Um, I like extremely clean for all of my devices. So this looks incredibly messy to me and I don't want it, +[1926.18 --> 1936.92] but I think it's extremely cool that it exists because I do know a lot of people that will want it and it opens the door to other various themes and maybe slight adaptations of this whole idea, +[1936.92 --> 1944.48] which is actually really cool and how well it works, how you can zoom out to see the whole picture and then jump to a different area can make navigation really fast. +[1944.48 --> 1951.38] Yeah. Much faster than swiping three pages over or even entering pages over and then going into a folder. +[1951.38 --> 1958.88] Yup. This is a horrible combination going over a few pages, then going into a folder would take forever when you can just tap in between some of the icons, +[1958.88 --> 1964.88] which will zoom it all the way out and then tap on an icon, which will zoom it in and then tap on the icon again, which will open the actual app. +[1964.88 --> 1972.38] And the, the article makes some great arguments for how easy this would be to, to adopt. Like folders wouldn't have to go away. +[1972.38 --> 1980.38] It could just work like this. Icons wouldn't even necessarily have to be redesigned. Oh yeah. And they, they make the same complaint about Apple's stupid accessibility, +[1980.38 --> 1986.78] double tap thing that I did where it's like, what, what is that? That's just the cludgiest thing ever. And they even looked at this and went, well, hold on a second. +[1986.78 --> 1994.78] What if we just take existing icons now and make them all circles? Actually, it kind of looks like you don't have to change much. Doesn't it? +[1994.78 --> 2000.28] No, no, like not at all. Loving it. That's cool. I would really like to see this happen. +[2000.28 --> 2005.08] Which, what I'm assuming this is some travel thing. That one doesn't look super great. Yeah. Some of them. +[2005.08 --> 2014.08] Most of the other ones look fine. Some of them don't work particularly well, but the reality of it is, is app developers are going to have to have a round icon anyway. +[2014.08 --> 2027.08] If they want their app to show up on, on the watch. Yeah. So I guess, why don't we just all move to, I wonder if when the watch launches, we'll get like kind of like, +[2027.08 --> 2036.08] because I can't imagine iOS has operated exactly the same way for like seven years now. Okay. You got your grid. Maybe you get more rows. +[2036.08 --> 2040.08] Maybe you get folders. Maybe they're slightly larger icons. +[2040.08 --> 2045.08] But basically you swipe left and right. You access the icons and you press the thing and open the app. +[2045.08 --> 2046.08] Yeah. +[2046.08 --> 2051.08] For them to change something this fundamental, I would, okay, two, two, two ways of looking at this. +[2051.08 --> 2059.08] Number one is I think they kind of have to allow people to use classic navigation or new navigation. +[2059.08 --> 2064.08] Yeah. Why not? Themes are a thing. That's, that's one thing I really liked about this is just having options is going to be good. +[2064.08 --> 2072.08] But number two is I think if Apple can validate internally that this is legitimately better and faster in every way, +[2072.08 --> 2077.08] I hope that they have the cojones to just force everyone to switch to it because that's what Apple does. +[2077.08 --> 2081.08] Because that's what Apple does. They figure out what's better for you, whether you like it or not. +[2081.08 --> 2085.08] And they put it in front of you and make you use it. And that's how they innovate. +[2085.08 --> 2092.08] One of the biggest reasons why I've never wanted iPhones though, is the fact that I don't think you can have a blank default screen. +[2092.08 --> 2093.08] No, I don't think you can. +[2093.08 --> 2095.08] Yeah. And I really like that. +[2095.08 --> 2099.08] Yeah. There's, there's even stuff that you can't delete from the phone that comes straight from Apple. +[2099.08 --> 2102.08] Like a lot of it and stuff that not everyone needs like book stand. +[2102.08 --> 2108.08] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. So like how I like using mine is I just go into the app view window every time. +[2108.08 --> 2112.08] Essentially, I just press the app button at the bottom of Android and then that opens up my viewer. +[2112.08 --> 2114.08] And then I use it kind of like an iPhone viewer. +[2114.08 --> 2115.08] Right. +[2115.08 --> 2117.08] Where you just flip pages and I know everything else. +[2117.08 --> 2119.08] I used to do that. I've started being more of a home screen user. +[2119.08 --> 2125.08] But I, I, I have some alternate screens that have things on them that aren't my home screen. +[2125.08 --> 2128.08] So if I swipe left once or right once there's some there. +[2128.08 --> 2134.08] Sure. I, I actually, unless I'm on an HTC device and I have Blink feed, so I'll keep that on the left. +[2134.08 --> 2137.08] But then other than Blink feed, I go one home screen. +[2137.08 --> 2138.08] Yeah. +[2138.08 --> 2139.08] So that way it does a couple of things. +[2139.08 --> 2142.08] Number one is it means that I'm never navigating between home screens. +[2142.08 --> 2143.08] So I only use folders. +[2143.08 --> 2146.08] And then I'll have quite large folders for all the main stuff that I do. +[2146.08 --> 2147.08] Yeah. +[2147.08 --> 2153.08] And then number two, it means that that whole Android behavior or whenever you install a new app, it dumps it on one of your home screens. +[2153.08 --> 2159.08] If you only have one home screen and you delete all of your other ones, it just says it's full and then leaves it in the app tray. +[2159.08 --> 2160.08] There you go. +[2160.08 --> 2164.08] So I have to manually add something to my desktop if I actually want to have it. +[2164.08 --> 2165.08] Yeah. +[2165.08 --> 2166.08] So that's, that's why I do it that way. +[2166.08 --> 2167.08] Yeah. +[2167.08 --> 2172.08] Jared Grumbowski asks us not to make fun of Nicki Minaj. She's my ba. +[2172.08 --> 2173.08] Okay, Jared. +[2173.08 --> 2174.08] What does that mean? +[2174.08 --> 2181.08] I think if he adds an E, then it means in some form of relationship, but I'm not super down with the kids lingo right now. +[2181.08 --> 2182.08] So I might be wrong. +[2182.08 --> 2183.08] The kids lingo. +[2183.08 --> 2184.08] You're like what, 23? +[2184.08 --> 2185.08] Bae? +[2185.08 --> 2186.08] Bae? +[2186.08 --> 2187.08] I'm almost 24. +[2187.08 --> 2188.08] I've had enough of your crap. +[2188.08 --> 2189.08] Now people know how old I am. +[2189.08 --> 2190.08] Alright, posted by- +[2190.08 --> 2191.08] No one knew before. +[2191.08 --> 2192.08] I'm sorry? +[2192.08 --> 2193.08] No one knew how old I was before. +[2193.08 --> 2194.08] They didn't? +[2194.08 --> 2195.08] Oh. +[2195.08 --> 2196.08] Well now they do. +[2196.08 --> 2198.08] Okay, so posted originally by Benediction on the forum. +[2198.08 --> 2200.08] This is freaking awesome. +[2200.08 --> 2201.08] Benediction. +[2201.08 --> 2202.08] I'm a thema. +[2202.08 --> 2212.08] Noble, the gentleman behind the last two land speed records in 1983 and 1997, is spearheading a project called Bloodhound SSC. +[2212.08 --> 2216.08] It's been in the works for 30 years already. +[2216.08 --> 2219.08] And we're not talking like speed of sound. +[2219.08 --> 2222.08] You know, like that's wussy. +[2222.08 --> 2225.08] That's like your dad's land speed record. +[2225.08 --> 2229.08] We're talking a thousand miles an hour. +[2229.08 --> 2232.08] And this article on Wired is fantastic. +[2232.08 --> 2234.08] Here's the view inside the cockpit. +[2234.08 --> 2235.08] I mean is that- +[2235.08 --> 2236.08] So epic. +[2236.08 --> 2240.08] Tesla could learn a thing or two about futuristic car design right there. +[2240.08 --> 2242.08] Those also look fake as hell. +[2242.08 --> 2243.08] No, no, this is not fake. +[2243.08 --> 2244.08] This is it. +[2244.08 --> 2248.08] Those look like they were pasted there in front of the cop. +[2248.08 --> 2249.08] Look at this. +[2249.08 --> 2256.08] Okay, so to augment the digital ones in case they fail, these are state of the art Rolex analog meters. +[2256.08 --> 2258.08] Yeah, yeah, yeah dog. +[2258.08 --> 2259.08] That's so badass. +[2259.08 --> 2264.08] So the brake pedal only works at 200 miles per hour or less. +[2264.08 --> 2265.08] Yeah. +[2265.08 --> 2272.08] And beyond that, there's like a complicated set of like air brakes and hydraulics and all that kind of crap to slow it down. +[2272.08 --> 2274.08] And they have a pilot driving it. +[2274.08 --> 2276.08] Yeah, so this is the pilot right here. +[2276.08 --> 2282.08] His name's Andy Green and he was actually- he actually piloted, I think it was- +[2282.08 --> 2285.08] The last one. +[2285.08 --> 2289.08] I thought he's a- I think he flies planes as well. +[2289.08 --> 2290.08] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2290.08 --> 2291.08] He flies planes as well. +[2291.08 --> 2297.08] And what's cool about, you know, sort of his involvement with the project is that the cockpit of the car- +[2297.08 --> 2299.08] Can we even call it a car? +[2299.08 --> 2300.08] I think it's sort of a car. +[2300.08 --> 2301.08] The land rocket? +[2301.08 --> 2302.08] The land rocket, sure. +[2302.08 --> 2303.08] I don't know. +[2303.08 --> 2307.08] The cockpit of the car is actually specially shaped to his body. +[2307.08 --> 2308.08] Wow. +[2308.08 --> 2310.08] So like, he's the guy who's gonna drive it. +[2310.08 --> 2311.08] That's it. +[2311.08 --> 2312.08] That's all there is to it. +[2312.08 --> 2314.08] Don't get fat in the next couple months. +[2314.08 --> 2315.08] Yeah. +[2315.08 --> 2316.08] Years or whatever. +[2316.08 --> 2321.08] Dude, do not put on some weight because you will compromise the whole project. +[2321.08 --> 2322.08] The whole project, yeah. +[2322.08 --> 2323.08] Yeah. +[2323.08 --> 2328.08] So it's got a Rolls-Royce EJ200 jet engine taken out of a Eurofighter. +[2328.08 --> 2329.08] Yes. +[2329.08 --> 2339.08] We're talking 120 decibels of sound, most of which will be caused by shock waves, caused by the air running over the canopy of the cockpit and into the jet engine intake. +[2339.08 --> 2344.08] And the shock waves, counter-intuitively, will slow down air as it passes over the car. +[2344.08 --> 2350.08] And this is to ensure that the air does not hit the jet engine at a thousand miles per hour. +[2350.08 --> 2357.08] In fact, one meter before the intake of the jet engine, it slows down to 600 miles per hour. +[2357.08 --> 2358.08] Whoa. +[2358.08 --> 2359.08] That's crazy. +[2359.08 --> 2360.08] That's crazy. +[2360.08 --> 2361.08] That's crazy. +[2361.08 --> 2369.08] There's some stuff like the salt, I think it's the salt flats where they're driving it, or the flats that they're driving it on in general. +[2369.08 --> 2370.08] This one's going to be in Africa. +[2370.08 --> 2371.08] Yeah. +[2371.08 --> 2372.08] I know. +[2372.08 --> 2380.08] But they're laser etching the whole runway that they're going to be driving the thing on so that there will be nothing larger than a marble in the way. +[2380.08 --> 2385.08] Because if he drove over something with the aluminum, like solid aluminum wheels... +[2385.08 --> 2391.08] Yeah, I think they're going to be spinning with the same force required to separate DNA from cells. +[2391.08 --> 2392.08] Yeah. +[2392.08 --> 2394.08] And what were they, 200 pound aluminum wheels? +[2394.08 --> 2396.08] Yeah, I think so. +[2396.08 --> 2403.08] If he ran over something that large, it would feel like a bullet went through his entire body. +[2403.08 --> 2407.08] Speaking of bullets going through his entire body, the cockpit is reinforced. +[2407.08 --> 2411.08] So just in case, you know, a rocket, like this thing is armored basically. +[2411.08 --> 2412.08] Yeah. +[2412.08 --> 2418.08] In case a rock goes flying or whatever else, it's not going to go in and kill him because, yeah, at that kind of speed, it would definitely... +[2418.08 --> 2419.08] You're done. +[2419.08 --> 2420.08] You would be done. +[2420.08 --> 2421.08] Yeah. +[2421.08 --> 2422.08] Pretty exciting. +[2422.08 --> 2428.08] To put a thousand miles per hour in perspective, this actually, this was what drove it home for me. +[2428.08 --> 2434.08] That is the length of three football pitches per second. +[2434.08 --> 2438.08] It's 400 and something meters per second. +[2438.08 --> 2446.08] So, um, a football pitch is, I believe, a little longer than an American football field, which is 100 yards. +[2446.08 --> 2452.08] So, I'm sure someone's going to destroy me in the comments for not knowing how long the football pitch is. +[2452.08 --> 2453.08] But, whatever. +[2453.08 --> 2457.08] The point is, three football pitches per second. +[2457.08 --> 2458.08] Unreal. +[2458.08 --> 2461.08] I think someone, someone in the comments must have figured it out. +[2461.08 --> 2462.08] Someone probably did. +[2462.08 --> 2463.08] On my objectives. +[2463.08 --> 2466.08] Someone will have converted it to meters per second. +[2466.08 --> 2467.08] It's going to be here. +[2467.08 --> 2468.08] Come on. +[2468.08 --> 2469.08] Oh! +[2469.08 --> 2470.08] 447! +[2470.08 --> 2472.08] 447 meters per second? +[2472.08 --> 2473.08] Apparently, yeah. +[2473.08 --> 2474.08] Or 1600 kilometers. +[2474.08 --> 2475.08] There you go. +[2475.08 --> 2477.08] So, so, 447 meters per second. +[2477.08 --> 2478.08] Unreal. +[2478.08 --> 2479.08] Alright. +[2479.08 --> 2480.08] That's incredibly fast. +[2480.08 --> 2481.08] Oh, yeah. +[2481.08 --> 2487.08] I never, I think we never said the name of the, uh, so the vehicle is called the Bloodhound SSC. +[2487.08 --> 2488.08] Epic. +[2488.08 --> 2489.08] Alright. +[2489.08 --> 2495.08] So, let's talk about some other high performance stuff here that's totally back to, back to actual +[2495.08 --> 2496.08] computers. +[2496.08 --> 2498.08] People were laughing at you because you said football pitch. +[2498.08 --> 2499.08] Why? +[2499.08 --> 2500.08] That's what they're called. +[2500.08 --> 2501.08] I know. +[2501.08 --> 2503.08] I'm not going to call it soccer. +[2503.08 --> 2506.08] It's not called soccer. +[2506.08 --> 2507.08] Uh. +[2507.08 --> 2511.08] One small fraction of the world calls it soccer. +[2511.08 --> 2512.08] Yes, that's true. +[2512.08 --> 2513.08] That's it. +[2513.08 --> 2514.08] But the origins weren't from the states. +[2514.08 --> 2519.08] And, the name of football is stupid here in the states because you do not play- +[2519.08 --> 2522.08] You used your foot a lot more when it was first started. +[2522.08 --> 2523.08] Right. +[2523.08 --> 2524.08] So what? +[2524.08 --> 2527.08] When they, when they, when they invented the game, you used your foot a lot more. +[2527.08 --> 2528.08] Right. +[2528.08 --> 2529.08] So then change the name. +[2529.08 --> 2536.08] I mean, if, if, if baseball, if they removed the bases, are they still, if they removed the +[2536.08 --> 2537.08] base of the ball. +[2537.08 --> 2538.08] Just call it ball. +[2538.08 --> 2539.08] Yeah. +[2539.08 --> 2540.08] Just call it ball. +[2540.08 --> 2541.08] I mean, they do kind of. +[2541.08 --> 2542.08] Play ball! +[2542.08 --> 2543.08] It's implied. +[2543.08 --> 2544.08] That's true. +[2544.08 --> 2545.08] That's true. +[2545.08 --> 2546.08] Fat ball. +[2546.08 --> 2547.08] If basketball. +[2547.08 --> 2548.08] If they take away the baskets. +[2548.08 --> 2549.08] Ring ball. +[2549.08 --> 2550.08] Ring ball. +[2550.08 --> 2551.08] You can't keep calling it basketball. +[2551.08 --> 2552.08] You are. +[2552.08 --> 2553.08] Yeah, I know. +[2553.08 --> 2554.08] You can't call American and, so. +[2554.08 --> 2555.08] Soccer came from association though. +[2555.08 --> 2556.08] It's not even an American thing. +[2556.08 --> 2558.08] I believe it's from Oxford or something. +[2558.08 --> 2559.08] Something like that. +[2559.08 --> 2560.08] Either way. +[2560.08 --> 2561.08] The sport is not called soccer. +[2561.08 --> 2563.08] I refuse to call it soccer. +[2563.08 --> 2567.08] It is called football and football in North America is called American football. +[2567.08 --> 2569.08] So that's it. +[2569.08 --> 2574.08] That's how I'm going to do it and you guys can all deal with it because I am the caped +[2574.08 --> 2575.08] badass. +[2575.08 --> 2581.08] I really feel like you need to have like a bandana over your face. +[2581.08 --> 2582.08] This thing really smells. +[2582.08 --> 2583.08] So you don't have to keep it like this. +[2583.08 --> 2584.08] It's been in my attic. +[2584.08 --> 2585.08] It just, yeah, it just smells like old. +[2585.08 --> 2586.08] Forever. +[2586.08 --> 2587.08] Yeah. +[2587.08 --> 2591.08] Alright, so let's move on to this topic posted by Rock with original articles from TheVerge.com +[2591.08 --> 2593.08] and Gadget and Digital Trends. +[2593.08 --> 2597.08] I'm mad at The Verge right now though so we're not bringing up their article. +[2597.08 --> 2598.08] Why are you? +[2598.08 --> 2601.08] There is a really stupid piece on The Verge right now about Gamergate. +[2601.08 --> 2603.08] Like just phenomenally stupid. +[2603.08 --> 2604.08] Ugh. +[2604.08 --> 2605.08] Ugh. +[2605.08 --> 2608.08] Like the dumbest thing I've read since that. +[2608.08 --> 2610.08] Don't do that. +[2610.08 --> 2611.08] Edgy. +[2611.08 --> 2613.08] Come on. +[2613.08 --> 2615.08] It's a freaking, it's this. +[2615.08 --> 2616.08] I know. +[2616.08 --> 2617.08] Anyway. +[2617.08 --> 2618.08] I'm a duck. +[2618.08 --> 2627.08] Yeah, it's the dumbest thing I've read since that critique of Shadow of Mordor where you +[2627.08 --> 2629.08] learn the sneak attack tactic by kissing your life. +[2629.08 --> 2630.08] Oh no. +[2630.08 --> 2631.08] That was so dumb. +[2631.08 --> 2632.08] I don't remember who did that. +[2632.08 --> 2634.08] I didn't say it was dumber than that. +[2634.08 --> 2637.08] I said it was the dumbest thing I've read since then. +[2637.08 --> 2638.08] Since then, okay. +[2638.08 --> 2639.08] Okay. +[2639.08 --> 2645.08] Alright, so here's the article on DigitalTrends.com and they have a hands on of the Alienware graphics +[2645.08 --> 2646.08] amplifier. +[2646.08 --> 2650.08] Turbo charge your laptop with a desktop GPU. +[2650.08 --> 2652.08] Alienware now makes a box for that. +[2652.08 --> 2657.08] So basically what this does is it connects via an unfortunately proprietary cable. +[2657.08 --> 2658.08] Yup. +[2658.08 --> 2660.08] So it only works with Alienware laptops. +[2660.08 --> 2662.08] Only works with select Alienware laptops. +[2662.08 --> 2663.08] Yeah. +[2663.08 --> 2664.08] Even then. +[2664.08 --> 2665.08] Which is sort of a bummer. +[2665.08 --> 2668.08] But basically it's a power supply and a PCI Express slot inside. +[2668.08 --> 2669.08] Let's see if they've, yup, there we go. +[2669.08 --> 2676.08] So it's a power supply and a PCI Express slot inside that allows you to basically have external +[2676.08 --> 2680.08] PCI Express and plug it into your laptop. +[2680.08 --> 2685.08] I think the only models it works with right now are ones that probably don't even really +[2685.08 --> 2687.08] need an external graphics card for the moment. +[2687.08 --> 2693.08] But if you want to be able to upgrade in the future, then, oh, hold on, here we go. +[2693.08 --> 2699.08] The Alienware 13 will only ship with GeForce GTX 860M graphics. +[2699.08 --> 2703.08] It's disappointing that the blah blah blah, but that does give you more of a reason to +[2703.08 --> 2705.08] upgrade to the whatever the thing. +[2705.08 --> 2706.08] Okay. +[2706.08 --> 2707.08] Blah blah blah. +[2707.08 --> 2708.08] Something something. +[2708.08 --> 2709.08] Something something. +[2709.08 --> 2710.08] Whatever the thing. +[2710.08 --> 2711.08] Super helpful information on the stream. +[2711.08 --> 2712.08] Blah blah blah. +[2712.08 --> 2716.08] Yeah, there's actually not a lot of info about it here and I didn't do much reading about +[2716.08 --> 2717.08] this. +[2717.08 --> 2718.08] I'd be interested to see. +[2718.08 --> 2720.08] It's going to be hard to... +[2720.08 --> 2725.08] I wonder if you could spend a while and find clock speeds for a mobile GPU and a desktop +[2725.08 --> 2731.08] GPU that would be comparable in terms of performance and then test what frame rates you can get having +[2731.08 --> 2734.08] a GPU and a desktop machine and the GPU and a laptop machine. +[2734.08 --> 2738.08] Like you mean like benchmarking mobile CPUs that way? +[2738.08 --> 2743.08] Like try to benchmark a mobile CPU and then clock back your desktop CPU to try and find +[2743.08 --> 2744.08] an equivalency. +[2744.08 --> 2749.08] And then once you've found a CPU level equivalency, then bench the graphics card on each one and +[2749.08 --> 2750.08] see what the performance difference is. +[2750.08 --> 2754.08] You can play around with it a fair bit but the issue that I ran into when I was doing +[2754.08 --> 2761.08] my my 980 versus 980m video not that long ago was that even though motherboards do let +[2761.08 --> 2766.08] you play around with your CPU multiplier a fair bit, many of them don't let you turn it down. +[2766.08 --> 2768.08] No, turn down the desktop one. +[2768.08 --> 2770.08] Yeah, they don't let you turn it down enough. +[2770.08 --> 2771.08] Oh, enough. +[2771.08 --> 2772.08] Yeah. +[2772.08 --> 2775.08] So you can turn it down a little bit but you can't turn it down enough to be equivalent +[2775.08 --> 2777.08] to a same architecture mobile CPU. +[2777.08 --> 2780.08] Yeah, we'd have to get a much older architecture one I guess. +[2780.08 --> 2783.08] And so, and once you're doing that it becomes an apples to oranges comparison. +[2783.08 --> 2784.08] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. +[2784.08 --> 2786.08] So that was the challenge that I ran into. +[2786.08 --> 2792.08] Supports any GPU up to 375 watts and works for now only with the Alienware 13. +[2792.08 --> 2797.08] So that one does have an 860m so hopefully I guess that gives people a compelling reason +[2797.08 --> 2799.08] to buy one of these. +[2799.08 --> 2800.08] It costs 300 bucks though. +[2800.08 --> 2805.08] So you'll pay, you have to buy a new laptop, you have to buy a graphics card and you have +[2805.08 --> 2807.08] to buy 300 bucks for the privilege of using the box with it. +[2807.08 --> 2812.08] And consider, yeah, considering how much, like how long those boxes have existed in various +[2812.08 --> 2817.08] forms and how much is really going into that box, it's pretty expensive. +[2817.08 --> 2820.08] I mean this standard makes no sense until it runs on Thunderbolt. +[2820.08 --> 2822.08] So, yeah. +[2822.08 --> 2823.08] And it will at some point. +[2823.08 --> 2826.08] We will get Thunderbolt boxes that allow external GPUs. +[2826.08 --> 2831.08] In fact, the only reason they don't work now is that AMD and Nvidia haven't enabled it. +[2831.08 --> 2838.08] So all Alienware's done here is they've exposed a direct PCI Express link through a proprietary +[2838.08 --> 2842.08] cable so that the GPU can't tell that it's, you know, in an external box. +[2842.08 --> 2843.08] That's all they've done. +[2843.08 --> 2846.08] There's no reason that Thunderbolt's bandwidth couldn't support external GPUs. +[2846.08 --> 2849.08] And Windows is just like, sure, whatever, cool. +[2849.08 --> 2850.08] Yeah. +[2850.08 --> 2852.08] So they're just kind of hiding it from everybody. +[2852.08 --> 2853.08] Yeah. +[2853.08 --> 2854.08] Alright. +[2854.08 --> 2857.08] Now I love, I love mechanical keyboards. +[2857.08 --> 2858.08] I love Cherry, but this is ridiculous. +[2858.08 --> 2860.08] But I still don't think this makes a ton of sense. +[2860.08 --> 2861.08] This is nuts. +[2861.08 --> 2865.08] Originally posted by Nagby on the forum, I'll pull up the original article here. +[2865.08 --> 2869.08] The most redonkulous looking laptop in a long time. +[2869.08 --> 2870.08] I can't say ever. +[2870.08 --> 2872.08] Because there's some old school ones that look absolutely hilarious. +[2872.08 --> 2873.08] Pretty stupid. +[2873.08 --> 2876.08] But like, what? +[2876.08 --> 2882.08] I'm gonna let that sink in for a moment. +[2882.08 --> 2888.08] So you know how, I've talked about this in the past, how the way that technology is miniaturizing +[2888.08 --> 2895.08] and power consumption and heat output are going down, not only enables smaller devices, +[2895.08 --> 2901.08] but also devices that are the same size where we pack all that hardware into a small part +[2901.08 --> 2905.08] of it and build in additional functionality, bigger batteries, or whatever else the case +[2905.08 --> 2906.08] may be. +[2906.08 --> 2907.08] This is not what I had in mind. +[2907.08 --> 2908.08] No. +[2908.08 --> 2911.08] So, you wanna cover this one? +[2911.08 --> 2912.08] What is this thing? +[2912.08 --> 2918.08] I don't even, okay, so it's all the main components for the laptop go into that super +[2918.08 --> 2923.08] uninteresting looking, other than the dragon, I guess, but like kind of useless area above +[2923.08 --> 2924.08] the keyboard. +[2924.08 --> 2929.08] I gotta say this, if they have to have a brushed aluminum panel, then it's better to have +[2929.08 --> 2933.08] it's better to have it above the palm rest rather than as the palm rest. +[2933.08 --> 2936.08] Definitely, they get points for that, and that dragon looks pretty cool. +[2936.08 --> 2940.08] But still, that's a huge blank area which is essentially unusable. +[2940.08 --> 2946.08] I like that they even move the buttons closer to the keyboard, so like the power button is +[2946.08 --> 2948.08] closer to the keyboard, not at the top. +[2948.08 --> 2951.08] So again, with the brushed aluminum thing, you're probably not gonna be dragging your fingers +[2951.08 --> 2952.08] over it very often. +[2952.08 --> 2956.08] But essentially, the keyboard area is just blank space because the switches and everything +[2956.08 --> 2960.08] are so tall, and you need the electrical base for the keyboard under that as well. +[2960.08 --> 2963.08] So that whole area is just the keyboard. +[2963.08 --> 2966.08] And then above that is where the whole rest of your laptop goes. +[2966.08 --> 2969.08] And for those of you wondering, well, hold on a second, where's the touchpad? +[2969.08 --> 2970.08] Ah, yes. +[2970.08 --> 2973.08] MSI does have that taken care of. +[2973.08 --> 2976.08] They have a touchpad over here on the right. +[2976.08 --> 2977.08] Yeah. +[2977.08 --> 2981.08] That it also serves as a number pad if you wanna put it in some... +[2981.08 --> 2984.08] So that's gonna be a super weird place to have a touchpad. +[2984.08 --> 2985.08] Yeah. +[2985.08 --> 2986.08] I mean, it didn't work for the Razer Blade. +[2986.08 --> 2987.08] Nope. +[2987.08 --> 2989.08] It's not gonna work for this. +[2989.08 --> 2992.08] Touchpad on the right is a bad idea. +[2992.08 --> 2997.08] Because especially if you use your touchpad two-handed, like a lot of people do, one hand +[2997.08 --> 2999.08] for movement, one hand for clicking. +[2999.08 --> 3000.08] Hold on. +[3000.08 --> 3005.08] Having it over on the right like that is actually pretty darn inconvenient. +[3005.08 --> 3006.08] Sup? +[3006.08 --> 3007.08] Sorry, don't worry about it. +[3007.08 --> 3008.08] Okay. +[3008.08 --> 3009.08] I'll talk about it later. +[3009.08 --> 3010.08] Cool. +[3010.08 --> 3012.08] Yeah, it's just silly. +[3012.08 --> 3015.08] And, like, just leave... +[3015.08 --> 3017.08] I like the mechanical keyboards in there. +[3017.08 --> 3021.08] It's not a good way to implement it, and I don't think there is a good way to implement it. +[3021.08 --> 3025.08] I would rather it was just a good laptop and I could just take one with me. +[3025.08 --> 3027.08] I'll just take a tenkeyless with me. +[3027.08 --> 3028.08] Okay, hold on a second. +[3028.08 --> 3029.08] That'd be fine. +[3029.08 --> 3030.08] Let's see if we can... +[3030.08 --> 3034.08] Okay, would you prefer this design if the mechanical keyboard was in the more traditional +[3034.08 --> 3037.08] keyboard location at the top of the laptop? +[3037.08 --> 3038.08] No. +[3038.08 --> 3039.08] I think I would. +[3039.08 --> 3040.08] Why? +[3040.08 --> 3041.08] Because if they could... +[3041.08 --> 3043.08] And you just have this giant blank space under it. +[3043.08 --> 3044.08] No, no, because... +[3044.08 --> 3045.08] Okay, okay, okay, hold on a second. +[3045.08 --> 3046.08] No, I still don't... +[3046.08 --> 3048.08] Okay, so here, here, here. +[3048.08 --> 3050.08] Here's a more traditional laptop. +[3050.08 --> 3060.08] If they could put the mechanical keyboard here, and then they used all this space for internals, +[3060.08 --> 3066.08] and they could keep the touchpad here, would you tolerate kind of an empty space here with +[3066.08 --> 3069.08] a mechanical keyboard and all the guts here and then just... +[3069.08 --> 3073.08] I mean, basically all you would need is small PCBs down the sides for I.O. +[3073.08 --> 3074.08] So nothing really changed. +[3074.08 --> 3076.08] And then you would need wiring up to the screen. +[3076.08 --> 3078.08] Like, would that have been a better way to do it? +[3078.08 --> 3079.08] Well, nothing really changed in that aspect. +[3079.08 --> 3080.08] Yeah. +[3080.08 --> 3083.08] Other than that there's a mechanical keyboard in it with the added weight and added thickness +[3083.08 --> 3085.08] that does come with the territory. +[3085.08 --> 3088.08] I worry if there's maybe other issues with that. +[3090.08 --> 3092.08] I don't really know what they could be. +[3092.08 --> 3094.08] Like that it's just dumb overall or... +[3094.08 --> 3095.08] Maybe, I don't know. +[3095.08 --> 3097.08] I don't actually make laptops. +[3097.08 --> 3099.08] I don't feel like it should be that big of an issue. +[3099.08 --> 3100.08] Really? Tell me more. +[3100.08 --> 3103.08] You know, I tried to make a laptop last time. +[3103.08 --> 3104.08] I tried to make a laptop last time. +[3104.08 --> 3105.08] It was a Friday. +[3105.08 --> 3107.08] It was raining outside. +[3107.08 --> 3108.08] No, um... +[3108.08 --> 3110.08] I was like, well, if Apple can do it then... +[3110.08 --> 3111.08] That's probably fine. +[3111.08 --> 3113.08] It's probably not that hard. +[3113.08 --> 3115.08] I'm chained, it's alright. +[3115.08 --> 3116.08] Um... +[3116.08 --> 3118.08] Yeah, I don't know. +[3118.08 --> 3119.08] It should be fine. +[3119.08 --> 3121.08] I would have definitely preferred they did it that way. +[3121.08 --> 3124.08] The first thing I thought of when I saw this was why is the keyboard there? +[3124.08 --> 3126.08] That makes no sense. +[3126.08 --> 3129.08] And then like, space for hardware and cooling. +[3129.08 --> 3130.08] Um... +[3130.08 --> 3131.08] But yeah, just move... +[3131.08 --> 3132.08] And like, I get it. +[3132.08 --> 3133.08] It's probably back exhaust. +[3133.08 --> 3134.08] Whoop! +[3134.08 --> 3135.08] Yep, rear exhaust. +[3135.08 --> 3140.08] So having the keyboard in the way of that, you'd have to have like, side exhaust. +[3140.08 --> 3141.08] Right. +[3141.08 --> 3142.08] Which could get in the way of I.O. +[3142.08 --> 3146.08] But then, I don't think anyone's really complained that much about having I.O. in the back of the laptop. +[3146.08 --> 3147.08] Yeah. +[3147.08 --> 3148.08] I don't mind that. +[3148.08 --> 3149.08] Yeah, that's a good point. +[3149.08 --> 3150.08] Rear I.O. +[3150.08 --> 3151.08] I would be probably okay with that. +[3151.08 --> 3156.08] Maybe if you had like, a few on the side that the keyboard is on, not the blank side that you were talking about. +[3156.08 --> 3157.08] Yeah. +[3157.08 --> 3160.08] You could have a couple, like maybe one or two USB ports and that's it. +[3160.08 --> 3161.08] Yeah. +[3161.08 --> 3162.08] So you don't have to run a ton of stuff there. +[3162.08 --> 3165.08] Um, and then have your I.O. at the back and then exhaust at the sides. +[3165.08 --> 3166.08] That's probably fine. +[3166.08 --> 3167.08] I've got... +[3167.08 --> 3170.08] You know, I used to use the side exhaust on my bamboo to heat things up. +[3170.08 --> 3175.08] I've got, uh, I'm just changing the text. +[3175.08 --> 3182.08] I've got people in the Twitch chat pointing out that if the entire, um, heat, if the heat +[3182.08 --> 3185.08] generating components of a laptop, bearing in mind that this is a gaming machine, so we've +[3185.08 --> 3186.08] got a powerful GPU in there. +[3186.08 --> 3187.08] Oh, so it would be under your hands. +[3187.08 --> 3189.08] It would be right under your touch pad. +[3189.08 --> 3195.08] However, what I will point out is that ASUS seems to have that problem kicked. +[3195.08 --> 3204.08] Because on their, um, on their 750 series and their 751, both the bottom and the top +[3204.08 --> 3206.08] of the laptop are cool enough for use. +[3206.08 --> 3210.08] Yeah, but again, this is, this is the thickest part of the laptop is at the back. +[3210.08 --> 3211.08] Yes. +[3211.08 --> 3212.08] Which is the best way to do it. +[3212.08 --> 3213.08] The booty. +[3213.08 --> 3215.08] And then they have big heat sinks here and exhaust fans. +[3215.08 --> 3216.08] The best way to do it? +[3216.08 --> 3217.08] Yeah, man. +[3217.08 --> 3218.08] At the back is the back. +[3218.08 --> 3219.08] Okay, you know what? +[3219.08 --> 3220.08] I think we should move on. +[3220.08 --> 3223.08] So, our next topic here is the Motorola Droid Turbo. +[3223.08 --> 3226.08] Basically, sorry, I'm gonna keep going for a sec. +[3226.08 --> 3230.08] Basically, having your heat sinks at the front would drastically decrease how big they are. +[3230.08 --> 3231.08] Yeah, how big they can be. +[3231.08 --> 3233.08] Which would actually be an issue. +[3233.08 --> 3239.08] Unless we, unless we went with like the classic, like brick style laptop with no natural, you +[3239.08 --> 3241.08] know, angle, angled design to it. +[3241.08 --> 3243.08] You could, you could use the rubber feet on the bottom. +[3243.08 --> 3246.08] Just rectangular prism style. +[3246.08 --> 3247.08] Yeah. +[3247.08 --> 3248.08] Yeah. +[3248.08 --> 3249.08] Alright. +[3249.08 --> 3253.08] Moving on to the Motorola Droid Turbo. +[3253.08 --> 3258.08] Is it the phone that I was asking for a mere two weeks ago with two day battery life? +[3258.08 --> 3260.08] They claim it is. +[3260.08 --> 3264.08] We're talking up to 48 hours battery life, eight hours of charge in 15 minutes with that +[3264.08 --> 3266.08] new quick charging technology. +[3266.08 --> 3269.08] Can't remember what it's called at the moment, but we're gonna do it as fast as possible on +[3269.08 --> 3270.08] later. +[3270.08 --> 3271.08] Then I'll hopefully remember. +[3271.08 --> 3277.08] Got a 21 megapixel camera if you shoot in 4x3 or 15.5 megapixels if you shoot in 16x9, +[3277.08 --> 3282.08] but pro tip for those of you out there who want to take the best possible pictures, just +[3282.08 --> 3285.08] take a square picture and crop it later. +[3285.08 --> 3286.08] Yeah. +[3286.08 --> 3287.08] Yeah. +[3287.08 --> 3288.08] Yeah. +[3288.08 --> 3294.08] F 2.0 aperture, so that's a very wide open aperture. +[3294.08 --> 3299.08] It shoots 4k, 24fps video, 1080p, 30fps, and 720p slow-mo. +[3299.08 --> 3309.08] It's got a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor with 2.7 gigahertz quad-core and an Adreno 420 GPU. +[3309.08 --> 3312.08] You might say it has high performance. +[3312.08 --> 3314.08] Oh my god. +[3314.08 --> 3325.08] 3 gigs of RAM, 5.2 inch, 5.2 inch, 1440p, AMOLED screen, 13900 milliamp hour battery, +[3325.08 --> 3328.08] water-resistant NFC, 32 gig and 64 gig models. +[3328.08 --> 3333.08] The back is made of fine woven materials and mono front ported speakers. +[3333.08 --> 3336.08] So I don't like the mono, do like the front port. +[3336.08 --> 3337.08] Yeah. +[3337.08 --> 3338.08] I don't think anyone likes the mono. +[3338.08 --> 3339.08] No. +[3339.08 --> 3341.08] No, it makes you real sick. +[3341.08 --> 3344.08] Unfortunately, sorry go ahead. +[3344.08 --> 3345.08] No, keep going. +[3345.08 --> 3349.08] Oh, this was posted by McMad358 on the forum by the way, thank you for posting. +[3349.08 --> 3355.08] And there's articles from everywhere in the entire internet, so why don't we just pull up droidlife.com. +[3355.08 --> 3370.08] Unfortunately, some of the reports of the droid turbo's real world battery life are not well aligned with the 48 hour battery life claim. +[3370.08 --> 3371.08] Ooh. +[3371.08 --> 3373.08] That's super disappointing. +[3373.08 --> 3375.08] I actually didn't read that part. +[3375.08 --> 3379.08] I really like their web view thing. +[3379.08 --> 3382.08] You can directly compare it against other phones, which is pretty cool. +[3382.08 --> 3383.08] I don't remember. +[3383.08 --> 3386.08] I think that was on Motorola's actual website. +[3386.08 --> 3393.08] You could pair up other phones to compare it against and then it had a direct compare thing, which is actually really helpful. +[3393.08 --> 3398.08] One thing I'm not impressed with is they ditched the ring flash, which they've been doing recently. +[3398.08 --> 3400.08] I don't know why they did that. +[3400.08 --> 3402.08] Why bother? +[3402.08 --> 3404.08] I don't get it. +[3404.08 --> 3406.08] Yeah, there's a lot of buzz around it. +[3406.08 --> 3411.08] I've requested a review unit, but Motorola mostly ignores me these days, so I don't know. +[3411.08 --> 3412.08] We'll see. +[3412.08 --> 3413.08] Maybe we'll cover it. +[3413.08 --> 3414.08] Maybe we won't. +[3414.08 --> 3415.08] Yeah. +[3415.08 --> 3418.08] Hopefully that 48 hour thing is actually true. +[3418.08 --> 3428.08] Yeah, I mean, I still think that the thing about Android is that if it gets bogged down enough, you could have a 6,000 milliamp hour battery and you could still find a way to drain it in eight hours. +[3428.08 --> 3429.08] That's true. +[3429.08 --> 3431.08] That's the problem with Android. +[3431.08 --> 3432.08] That's true. +[3432.08 --> 3437.08] I've got a buddy that runs a lot of widgets and stuff on his Note, what is that, Note 4? +[3437.08 --> 3438.08] Yeah. +[3438.08 --> 3441.08] And almost maxes out his RAM capacity idling. +[3441.08 --> 3442.08] Right. +[3442.08 --> 3445.08] So like, people can do that for sure. +[3445.08 --> 3447.08] And he's not even doing a ton. +[3447.08 --> 3449.08] Like, it doesn't seem too ridiculous on his phone. +[3449.08 --> 3454.08] And he's using that much of his RAM automatically, which is pretty intense. +[3454.08 --> 3457.08] Okay, so hold on a second. +[3457.08 --> 3460.08] I actually need this. +[3460.08 --> 3461.08] Okay. +[3461.08 --> 3464.08] Just a second. +[3464.08 --> 3470.08] So I think it might be time for our sponsor time. +[3470.08 --> 3474.08] So our first sponsor today is 5-4 Clothing. +[3474.08 --> 3478.08] I'm going to go ahead and actually see if I can get everything right. +[3478.08 --> 3481.08] I had it, I made it Nick's job. +[3481.08 --> 3482.08] You should see how wrong you can get it. +[3482.08 --> 3484.08] I should see how wrong I can get it? +[3484.08 --> 3485.08] Yeah. +[3485.08 --> 3486.08] It doesn't seem to matter. +[3486.08 --> 3488.08] Also, oh, did you add a Dollar Shave Club lower third anywhere? +[3488.08 --> 3490.08] Yeah, I think it's under that one. +[3490.08 --> 3491.08] It's under that one? +[3491.08 --> 3492.08] Okay. +[3492.08 --> 3493.08] Pretty sure. +[3493.08 --> 3499.08] 5-4 Club, use offer code Linus2 to get an extra item in your first package. +[3499.08 --> 3500.08] Oh, good. +[3500.08 --> 3503.08] So this is actually the same offer that we had before. +[3503.08 --> 3505.08] So actually, it's not that hard. +[3505.08 --> 3513.08] So the way 5-4 works is for $60 a month, and you can head over to, um, excuse me. +[3513.08 --> 3515.08] You can head over to their website. +[3515.08 --> 3517.08] Let's go ahead and just, yay, there we go. +[3517.08 --> 3519.08] Okay, I've got a picture of the free item that you get. +[3519.08 --> 3524.08] So the way it works is for $60 a month, they have one of their, I'm going to make up the +[3524.08 --> 3528.08] name for them because I never get anything right for 5-4 anyway, so I might as well just +[3528.08 --> 3529.08] make things up as I go along. +[3529.08 --> 3532.08] Fashion, they have one of their fashion artisans. +[3532.08 --> 3533.08] Sure. +[3533.08 --> 3534.08] Sure, yeah. +[3534.08 --> 3539.08] Pick out clothes for you based on a short survey that takes just a couple minutes to +[3539.08 --> 3544.08] fill out where you tell them, uh, some clothing that you like, you tell them your size, +[3544.08 --> 3548.08] you tell them some shoes that you like, you tell them sort of some stuff about you, and +[3548.08 --> 3552.08] they go ahead and they pick up stuff that they think you're going to like, they send +[3552.08 --> 3558.08] it to you, and you pay half of what the sticker price would be on their website. +[3558.08 --> 3562.08] So you can actually check it out over at 5-4clothing.com. +[3562.08 --> 3568.08] They've actually got a surprising number of, like, photos of, like, A-list celebrities and +[3568.08 --> 3569.08] stuff who wear 5-4. +[3569.08 --> 3570.08] Yeah. +[3570.08 --> 3575.08] Because the whole idea behind it is that instead of going to the store and feeling like you're +[3575.08 --> 3582.08] being judged by all the sales associates because you don't know what you're doing, +[3582.08 --> 3587.08] the idea is that you should be able to look nice and be well-dressed without worrying about +[3587.08 --> 3593.08] any of that stuff and without ever actually leaving your home in your pajamas, which is +[3593.08 --> 3597.08] what you'll have to do the first time if you ever want to actually update your wardrobe. +[3597.08 --> 3598.08] Or every time. +[3598.08 --> 3602.08] So, the special offer with offer code Linus2 is to get that shirt that I showed you guys +[3602.08 --> 3608.08] before, free, in your first package, along with your new subscription. +[3608.08 --> 3610.08] So let's go ahead and show that again. +[3610.08 --> 3611.08] Yay! +[3611.08 --> 3612.08] Look at it! +[3612.08 --> 3613.08] I should get one of these. +[3613.08 --> 3615.08] Actually, I'm wearing a 5-4 shirt right now. +[3615.08 --> 3616.08] There you go. +[3616.08 --> 3617.08] Look at that. +[3617.08 --> 3618.08] I quite like this one. +[3618.08 --> 3623.08] So, it's- not all of their stuff is like 5-4 logos all over the place either. +[3623.08 --> 3625.08] In fact, kind of funny story. +[3625.08 --> 3629.08] You know that shirt that I wear in my Fastest Possible videos? +[3629.08 --> 3631.08] Everyone thinks it's FaZe Clan? +[3631.08 --> 3632.08] No? +[3632.08 --> 3633.08] Yeah! +[3633.08 --> 3634.08] Everyone thinks it's FaZe Clan. +[3634.08 --> 3636.08] No, it's a 5-4 shirt. +[3636.08 --> 3640.08] Everyone's like- it's amazing how many comments I get on that shirt. +[3640.08 --> 3643.08] No, when I wear my 5-4 shirt, everyone says I'm FaZe Clan. +[3643.08 --> 3644.08] Yeah. +[3644.08 --> 3645.08] Yeah. +[3645.08 --> 3646.08] No, no. +[3646.08 --> 3647.08] Not FaZe Clan shirts. +[3647.08 --> 3648.08] Yeah. +[3648.08 --> 3649.08] Not FaZe Clan shirts. +[3649.08 --> 3650.08] Alright, which brings us- +[3650.08 --> 3652.08] We have no affiliates with FaZe Clan. +[3652.08 --> 3654.08] That would be cool, but no. +[3654.08 --> 3657.08] Which brings us to our second sponsor today! +[3657.08 --> 3658.08] Dollar Shave Club. +[3658.08 --> 3664.50] Yet another service that's all about not looking like a hobo without actually having to leave +[3664.50 --> 3668.70] your house looking like a hobo while you shop for the supplies to not make you look like +[3668.70 --> 3669.70] a hobo. +[3669.70 --> 3672.20] So, Dollar Shave Club is another subscription based service. +[3672.20 --> 3675.80] This time, it's all about bathroom supplies. +[3675.80 --> 3681.62] So you can get their high quality razors, their Dr. Carver's Shave Butter, their One Wipe +[3681.62 --> 3686.40] Charlie's, peppermint scented butt wipes for men, and you can actually get travel sizes +[3686.40 --> 3688.40] of the One Wipe Charlie's. +[3688.40 --> 3689.40] Can you? +[3689.40 --> 3691.40] Yeah, one time use packages. +[3691.40 --> 3693.40] Remember, none of them are reusable though. +[3693.40 --> 3697.40] I wonder if that would help in countries where you have to buy toilet paper anyways? +[3697.40 --> 3698.40] Yeah, just carrying around. +[3698.40 --> 3701.48] When you have to go to the washroom you have to buy toilet paper or whatever, right? +[3701.48 --> 3702.80] I think there's countries like that. +[3702.80 --> 3705.40] Then yeah, they just carry One Wipe Charlie's around with you. +[3705.40 --> 3710.72] So anyway, the point is to make your butt smell like peppermint. +[3710.72 --> 3711.72] No wait, that isn't the point. +[3711.72 --> 3712.72] What am I even talking about again? +[3712.72 --> 3719.22] I always find some way for like, apparently females use it more now, and like now it's +[3719.22 --> 3722.22] a traveling companion to countries where you have to buy toilet paper. +[3722.22 --> 3725.90] Man, I should be a marketing person for Dollar Shave Club. +[3725.90 --> 3726.90] For Dollar Shave Club? +[3726.90 --> 3731.44] Alright, so speaking of marketing things for Dollar Shave Club, today we are going to be +[3731.44 --> 3738.76] doing a live test of a Dollar Shave Club razor versus a complete- wow, this is the most generic +[3738.76 --> 3739.76] razor ever. +[3739.76 --> 3740.76] A shaving benchmark? +[3740.76 --> 3741.76] Yeah, a shaving benchmark. +[3741.76 --> 3747.76] So I actually had New Nick provide me with actually his personal razor, which he assures +[3747.76 --> 3750.08] me as not his balls razor. +[3750.08 --> 3753.08] Because I am planning to put it on my face. +[3753.08 --> 3754.08] So, okay. +[3754.08 --> 3755.08] What? +[3755.08 --> 3758.08] This is why you need this service, because you won't even go to the store to buy your own. +[3758.08 --> 3760.08] You have to use another employee's. +[3760.08 --> 3763.08] I know, that's because Dollar Shave Club, man. +[3763.08 --> 3765.08] I'm not going to go buy razors. +[3765.08 --> 3766.08] That's stupid. +[3766.08 --> 3773.08] I mean, okay, it's cheaper, and it takes less time. +[3773.08 --> 3774.96] That's the whole idea behind it. +[3774.96 --> 3775.96] I know, it's just funny. +[3775.96 --> 3776.96] The only- +[3776.96 --> 3779.40] You needed a sample one, but you wouldn't even- +[3779.40 --> 3781.44] Okay, tell me this. +[3781.44 --> 3784.84] Why weren't you able to give me a non-Dollar Shave Club razor to try? +[3784.84 --> 3786.84] Well, now I use the Dollar Shave Club one. +[3786.84 --> 3787.84] Okay. +[3787.84 --> 3788.84] We've all seen my old ones. +[3788.84 --> 3789.84] My bad? +[3789.84 --> 3790.84] Yeah, I know. +[3790.84 --> 3791.84] Your old ones were terrible. +[3791.84 --> 3792.84] You shouldn't use those. +[3792.84 --> 3795.84] Alright, so half of the face with Dollar Shave Club, half of the face with Dollar Shave Club, +[3795.84 --> 3796.84] the generic razor. +[3796.84 --> 3801.52] We're going to start with the generic one just to see what kind of results we get out +[3801.52 --> 3802.52] of it. +[3802.52 --> 3803.84] Alright, so hold on a second. +[3803.84 --> 3806.84] Let's go ahead and make sure we've got a good grip on the thing and- +[3806.84 --> 3807.84] Ah! +[3807.84 --> 3808.84] Ah! +[3808.84 --> 3809.84] It's all over my hands! +[3809.84 --> 3810.84] Oh shit! +[3810.84 --> 3811.84] Nick! +[3811.84 --> 3812.84] Nick! +[3812.84 --> 3813.84] Nick, get in here! +[3813.84 --> 3814.84] I don't have my phone! +[3814.84 --> 3815.84] We've got a bit of a problem! +[3815.84 --> 3816.84] I- +[3816.84 --> 3817.84] I'm- +[3817.84 --> 3819.84] What are you doing? +[3819.84 --> 3820.84] I'm covering your nose! +[3820.84 --> 3821.84] Is it our last seconds on the- +[3821.84 --> 3822.84] I'm covering your nose! +[3822.84 --> 3823.84] No! +[3823.84 --> 3824.84] You need to make the most- +[3824.84 --> 3825.84] Nick! +[3825.84 --> 3826.84] Nick! +[3826.84 --> 3827.84] I'm trying to stop the bleeding! +[3827.84 --> 3828.84] Nick! +[3828.84 --> 3829.84] What are you doing? +[3829.84 --> 3830.84] Nick! +[3830.84 --> 3832.84] You're- I think you're peaking the audio. +[3832.84 --> 3833.84] Alright. +[3833.84 --> 3835.84] Okay, obviously we're just- we're just messing with you guys. +[3835.84 --> 3836.84] Hopefully I can clean that off my jacket. +[3836.84 --> 3838.84] Oh, that stuff is disgusting. +[3838.84 --> 3840.84] Oh, it's all over the place. +[3840.84 --> 3842.84] Okay, Nick said it tasted like chocolate. +[3842.84 --> 3843.84] No, it doesn't. +[3843.84 --> 3844.84] It doesn't. +[3844.84 --> 3846.84] He was lying to me. +[3846.84 --> 3847.84] That liar. +[3847.84 --> 3849.84] I don't think I'm going to be able to get this out of my jacket. +[3849.84 --> 3850.84] I mean- +[3850.84 --> 3851.84] We don't actually have any- +[3851.84 --> 3852.84] It's only inner liner though. +[3852.84 --> 3853.84] No, no, it's- it's washable. +[3853.84 --> 3854.84] It's washable. +[3854.84 --> 3855.84] I told people we were supposed to get- +[3855.84 --> 3856.84] Um... +[3856.84 --> 3859.84] Where's the paper towel and stuff? +[3859.84 --> 3860.84] We didn't know you were going to get this out of my jacket. +[3860.84 --> 3862.84] Uh, there's TP here. +[3862.84 --> 3863.84] And this stuff tastes disgusting. +[3863.84 --> 3864.84] It does not taste- +[3864.84 --> 3866.84] You told me it tastes like chocolate! +[3866.84 --> 3867.84] You're such a troll. +[3867.84 --> 3869.84] Oh my goodness. +[3869.84 --> 3871.84] Oh, man. +[3871.84 --> 3872.84] Oh! +[3872.84 --> 3877.84] Okay, so guys, just to be clear- +[3877.84 --> 3879.84] Maybe he just thinks that chocolate tastes disgusting. +[3879.84 --> 3880.84] This is- +[3880.84 --> 3881.84] This is fake. +[3881.84 --> 3884.84] And, uh, we were- we were just having some fun- +[3884.84 --> 3885.84] You didn't know. +[3885.84 --> 3886.84] Yeah. +[3886.84 --> 3888.84] We were just- we were just having some fun cause it's Halloween. +[3888.84 --> 3891.84] Uh, but- but seriously, Dollar Shave Club, good stuff. +[3891.84 --> 3893.84] Save time, save money. +[3893.84 --> 3898.84] And, uh, thanks to Dollar Shave Club for being good sports about our, uh, our silly little, +[3898.84 --> 3899.84] uh, our silly little thing. +[3899.84 --> 3900.84] That's- that's okay. +[3900.84 --> 3901.84] This is lots. +[3901.84 --> 3902.84] This is lots. +[3902.84 --> 3904.84] I'm just gonna dump some water on it. +[3904.84 --> 3905.84] Away from my laptop. +[3905.84 --> 3908.84] The last thing it needs is to get water all over it again. +[3908.84 --> 3909.84] Again. +[3909.84 --> 3910.84] Yeah. +[3910.84 --> 3911.84] For the second time. +[3911.84 --> 3912.84] I don't know if it would survive that again. +[3912.84 --> 3913.84] Alright, thanks guys. +[3913.84 --> 3915.84] And those do not taste like chocolate. +[3915.84 --> 3916.84] I hate you. +[3916.84 --> 3917.84] You're such a jerk. +[3917.84 --> 3918.84] Chocolate tastes terrible. +[3918.84 --> 3919.84] Oh, it's awful. +[3919.84 --> 3920.84] It's awful. +[3920.84 --> 3924.84] If I'd known it was gonna taste this bad, I would've brought myself something good to eat. +[3924.84 --> 3929.84] What- like, if you had to compare it to something, what- what would be the most comparable thing? +[3929.84 --> 3934.84] Um, it's about like, have you ever, um, have you ever eaten the stem of a dandelion? +[3934.84 --> 3938.84] Probably like a really long time. +[3938.84 --> 3940.84] Yeah, like when you were a kid or whatever, just cause you're an idiot. +[3940.84 --> 3941.84] Yeah. +[3941.84 --> 3942.84] Like dandelion milk. +[3942.84 --> 3945.84] You know, some kid tells you it tastes like real milk and you eat it. +[3945.84 --> 3947.84] It tastes about like dandelion milk. +[3947.84 --> 3949.84] Okay, I can't imagine that's good. +[3949.84 --> 3955.84] Like that's- and dandelion milk is the kind of thing that people troll other people by telling them to eat because it's gross. +[3955.84 --> 3956.84] So, yeah. +[3956.84 --> 3957.84] Let's go ahead and- +[3957.84 --> 3960.84] Oh, I got blood on my 5'4 shirt. +[3960.84 --> 3962.84] Okay, so I think that's it for sponsor time. +[3962.84 --> 3963.84] Guys, join the club. +[3963.84 --> 3966.84] Visit dollarshaveclub.com slash Linus. +[3966.84 --> 3972.84] Again, thanks to them for being good sports about our little, uh, our little fun thing that we decided to do. +[3972.84 --> 3973.84] Alright. +[3973.84 --> 3976.84] Let's go ahead and- +[3976.84 --> 3981.84] I love how- I love how slow the reaction was to us sounding like there was something wrong. +[3981.84 --> 3986.84] Yeah, they're obviously never gonna save us if we're in like some sort of bad situation. +[3986.84 --> 3991.84] Yeah, if there's ever a fire, I think we can pretty much count on having to go out that window- +[3991.84 --> 3992.84] That window. +[3992.84 --> 3994.84] And like us solving every problem. +[3994.84 --> 3995.84] Yeah. +[3995.84 --> 4002.84] Oh, actually one more thing that I really wanted to mention was we did a- we did a live stream with Modus. +[4002.84 --> 4004.84] We've actually done two of them over the last few weeks. +[4004.84 --> 4008.84] Uh, the last stream is gonna be next Thursday, but there are some giveaways. +[4008.84 --> 4015.84] So you guys are gonna wanna head over to blog.modus.com to qualify for a free membership to Code School. +[4015.84 --> 4019.84] So if you're interested in learning coding, uh, Code School is a great place to- +[4019.84 --> 4020.84] Yep. +[4020.84 --> 4025.84] A great place to do that and you can go to blog.modus.com slash code-school slash code-school giveaway- +[4025.84 --> 4027.84] I've used like all of these web education services. +[4027.84 --> 4034.84] Yeah, so go to- anyway, the point is go to blog.modus, M-O-D-I-S dot com and uh, you can qualify for the giveaway +[4034.84 --> 4036.84] and also check out that next stream. +[4036.84 --> 4039.84] Um, stream number two in particular I thought was awesome. +[4039.84 --> 4045.84] Our guest was fantastic, lots of fun, very bubbly personality and it was really cool talking to her in particular. +[4045.84 --> 4052.84] about, um, women, women in the programming space because she basically said, yeah, it's been great. +[4052.84 --> 4053.84] More common than you would expect. +[4053.84 --> 4054.84] Yeah, you know what? +[4054.84 --> 4058.84] I noticed that when I did my, uh, Ubisoft studio tour in Montreal. +[4058.84 --> 4060.84] There were so many women working there. +[4060.84 --> 4061.84] Yep. +[4061.84 --> 4071.84] And not just as secretaries, like, uh, one, like their, um, the, the lady who, uh, was talking to us about their state-of-the-art motion capture, for example. +[4071.84 --> 4074.84] There you go. +[4074.84 --> 4075.84] Yeah. +[4075.84 --> 4076.84] Yeah. +[4076.84 --> 4077.84] Yeah. +[4077.84 --> 4078.84] Well like- +[4078.84 --> 4080.84] Like, okay, when I was taking software engineering, it was a very low percentage. +[4080.84 --> 4089.84] When I was taking, uh, like, computer science-y, IT, database-y courses, it was 25-30%, which is a lot more than what I think a lot of people would expect. +[4089.84 --> 4092.84] Alright, so let's go ahead and, uh, move on. +[4092.84 --> 4098.84] We've once again dicked around during the first two-thirds of the show and have very little time left. +[4098.84 --> 4100.84] So, Far Cry 4 Dev. +[4100.84 --> 4101.84] Oh, y'all. +[4101.84 --> 4102.84] Resolution doesn't sell games. +[4102.84 --> 4103.84] Oh, y'all. +[4103.84 --> 4108.84] This was posted by Raph Banayan on the forum, and the original article is from NeoGAF. +[4108.84 --> 4109.84] Good for you. +[4109.84 --> 4110.84] Good for you. +[4110.84 --> 4140.84] +[4140.84 --> 4141.84] And- +[4141.84 --> 4142.84] These things are not mutually exclusive. +[4142.84 --> 4145.84] Yeah, you can have a fun game that also looks great. +[4145.84 --> 4150.84] And it- and it's not like we're asking for every game to come out, like, 4K. +[4150.84 --> 4153.84] We're asking for, like, a very reasonable amount. +[4153.84 --> 4154.84] Yeah. +[4154.84 --> 4159.84] We're asking for not immersion-breaking aliasing all over the place. +[4159.84 --> 4160.84] We're trying to not go backwards. +[4160.84 --> 4161.84] Yeah. +[4161.84 --> 4163.84] We're not trying to shove you and push you incredibly hard to go forwards. +[4163.84 --> 4165.84] You should be doing that on your own. +[4165.84 --> 4166.84] Yeah. +[4166.84 --> 4168.84] This isn't- this isn't- yeah. +[4168.84 --> 4169.84] We're not even saying that. +[4169.84 --> 4173.84] And of course, it's important to have new things in games. +[4173.84 --> 4180.84] Um, like he says, a new spin on an evolution I think is more interesting, like, new- new topics, new- asking new questions. +[4180.84 --> 4181.84] All that kind of stuff. +[4181.84 --> 4182.84] Yeah. +[4182.84 --> 4183.84] Do that. +[4183.84 --> 4187.84] You can do that while having a reasonable amount of resolution and a reasonable frame rate. +[4187.84 --> 4189.84] You don't have to have- +[4189.84 --> 4190.84] Ugh. +[4190.84 --> 4191.84] God, they make my brain hurt. +[4191.84 --> 4192.84] My digging up. +[4192.84 --> 4193.84] Why don't they just stop talking? +[4193.84 --> 4194.84] Yeah. +[4194.84 --> 4195.84] You've probably- +[4195.84 --> 4196.84] Let's just stop talking about that. +[4196.84 --> 4197.84] Speaking of things that I can't understand- +[4197.84 --> 4198.84] Not even us. +[4198.84 --> 4199.84] They need to stop talking. +[4199.84 --> 4201.84] They just keep digging every single time. +[4201.84 --> 4205.84] Speaking of things that I can't figure out why anyone actually cares about, +[4205.84 --> 4208.84] Apple CEO Tim Cook comes out and says, +[4208.84 --> 4209.84] I am proud to be gay. +[4209.84 --> 4214.84] The original article is from money.cnn.com, and I think that's about all the attention +[4214.84 --> 4218.84] that this topic deserves, because who gives a crap? +[4218.84 --> 4219.84] Alright, moving on. +[4219.84 --> 4220.84] Nobody should care. +[4220.84 --> 4221.84] Yeah. +[4221.84 --> 4222.84] At all. +[4222.84 --> 4227.84] Although, one thing that I am kind of happy to see, though, is that, you know, we live in +[4227.84 --> 4233.84] a time when we can have a non-white dude in the White House and the CEO of the most valuable +[4233.84 --> 4236.84] company in America be openly gay. +[4236.84 --> 4239.84] So, I guess that's pretty cool, isn't it? +[4239.84 --> 4240.84] Yeah. +[4240.84 --> 4241.84] Alright, so- +[4241.84 --> 4242.84] And it has been, yeah. +[4242.84 --> 4243.84] X-Wing and Tie Fighter. +[4243.84 --> 4244.84] Oh my- +[4244.84 --> 4246.84] I'm gonna jump a spew. +[4246.84 --> 4247.84] Speaking of- +[4247.84 --> 4248.84] Because we have to have that. +[4248.84 --> 4253.84] Speaking of pixelated games, I- I- I- have you already bought them? +[4253.84 --> 4254.84] No. +[4254.84 --> 4257.84] Oh, I- I didn't know it was a thing until, like, pretty close to before the show. +[4257.84 --> 4260.84] Okay, and there's a- there's a guide on, um, crap, I have it bookmarked. +[4260.84 --> 4265.84] I can't remember what site it is, but they've got a guide on updating the graphics of X-Wing. +[4265.84 --> 4266.84] Haven't looked into it for Tie Fighter yet. +[4266.84 --> 4269.84] Tie Fighter was actually my favorite of the games. +[4269.84 --> 4274.84] I actually never even finished the campaign of X-Wing, but Tie Fighter is one of my favorite +[4274.84 --> 4280.84] games of all time, and it has stood up to the test of time surprisingly well. +[4280.84 --> 4286.84] Great story, great music score, great gameplay- fantastic gameplay. +[4286.84 --> 4289.84] The missions are challenging in a way that new games really aren't. +[4289.84 --> 4295.84] Like, you can be out there flying for 45 minutes, and, like, some shuttle takes off from +[4295.84 --> 4299.84] somewhere that you need to intercept, and you're in the wrong part of the battlefield. +[4299.84 --> 4303.84] You don't get over there, you don't divert everything away from weapons and shields, +[4303.84 --> 4306.84] and get the crap over there and disable that thing. +[4306.84 --> 4308.84] You failed the mission, you start over. +[4308.84 --> 4310.84] Like, great game. +[4310.84 --> 4312.84] And, uh, so they're on good old games- +[4312.84 --> 4316.84] And the resolution for the time it was released was probably just fine, Ubisoft. +[4316.84 --> 4318.84] Uh, you need a joystick to play. +[4318.84 --> 4323.84] I think the original 1994 release, like the one that I had, uh, you could play with a mouse, but it was stupid. +[4323.84 --> 4325.84] It was stupid, it was bad. +[4325.84 --> 4327.84] It was like super, super bad. +[4327.84 --> 4332.84] I specifically bought a joystick for TIE Fighter, and it was worth every penny. +[4332.84 --> 4337.84] In fact, that joystick is here at the office, and I've been meaning to take it home forever, +[4337.84 --> 4340.84] because I finally bought a USB to game port adapter. +[4340.84 --> 4341.84] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4341.84 --> 4347.84] So I am planning to go home this weekend and play TIE Fighter with my Top Gun joystick. +[4347.84 --> 4348.84] So bad. +[4348.84 --> 4350.84] I'm actually gonna go get that, so I can show it off right now. +[4350.84 --> 4351.84] You wanna handle the next topic? +[4351.84 --> 4352.84] Do you have your streaming setup hooked up? +[4352.84 --> 4353.84] I'm sorry? +[4353.84 --> 4354.84] Do you have your streaming setup hooked up so you can stream that? +[4354.84 --> 4358.84] Um, yeah, I don't need to take my webcam away anymore, so I have my webcam at home. +[4358.84 --> 4359.84] You should stream that. +[4359.84 --> 4361.84] Maybe I should stream some time. +[4361.84 --> 4362.84] I don't even- +[4362.84 --> 4363.84] Oh, oh, oh. +[4363.84 --> 4364.84] Not gonna trip on this again. +[4364.84 --> 4365.84] Nope, not happening. +[4365.84 --> 4366.84] There you go. +[4366.84 --> 4367.84] Good work. +[4367.84 --> 4369.84] I'm jumping back to the dock. +[4369.84 --> 4371.84] That's like the last thing that I really want to- +[4371.84 --> 4373.84] Nope, there's a few other things that are really good. +[4373.84 --> 4374.84] What should I tackle? +[4374.84 --> 4377.84] YouTube 60fps is finally here. +[4377.84 --> 4384.84] Um, you need to select the 1080p 60 or 720p 60 options in your quality settings for it to work. +[4384.84 --> 4393.84] I know some people have, uh, apps for like Firefox or Chrome, which will automatically select the highest end possible thing. +[4393.84 --> 4400.84] Um, you might need to disable that for certain people that are releasing, uh, certain videos for it to be able to actually work properly. +[4400.84 --> 4404.84] I don't know, but I'm sure they'll fix those options at some point. +[4404.84 --> 4405.84] What's this? +[4405.84 --> 4406.84] YouTube, oh, 60fps. +[4406.84 --> 4407.84] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4407.84 --> 4409.84] People keep asking if we're gonna do 60fps videos. +[4409.84 --> 4410.84] The answer is no. +[4410.84 --> 4415.84] Um, unless we're- we're talking like gameplay videos or something that really benefits from it. +[4415.84 --> 4422.84] Product showcases and reviews and like that do not benefit in any tangible way from 60fps. +[4422.84 --> 4426.84] And I would rather shoot in 4K. +[4426.84 --> 4429.84] And right now it's one or the other for us with our filming equipment. +[4429.84 --> 4432.84] And yeah, and, and data storage. +[4432.84 --> 4433.84] And that too. +[4433.84 --> 4434.84] Yeah, 4K is already killing us. +[4434.84 --> 4438.84] The fastest possible we shot today, 80 gigs with the new recording format. +[4438.84 --> 4440.84] Pretty insane. +[4440.84 --> 4447.84] Fortunately, we'll be doing an updated Ultimate NAS with eight Seagate 6TB enterprise grade drives. +[4447.84 --> 4449.84] So yeah, that's 48TB. +[4449.84 --> 4450.84] So awesome. +[4450.84 --> 4453.84] Yeah, Ruskin server's getting an upgrade there, baby. +[4453.84 --> 4455.84] Um, okay, so what else we got? +[4455.84 --> 4458.84] I can't wait till we get a Linus Media Group petabyte. +[4458.84 --> 4460.84] Oh, T-Mobile CEO! +[4460.84 --> 4461.84] Oh, that's hilarious. +[4461.84 --> 4462.84] This guy is crazy. +[4462.84 --> 4463.84] He's nuts. +[4463.84 --> 4464.84] He's insane. +[4464.84 --> 4465.84] I love him. +[4465.84 --> 4467.84] Every time he opens his mouth, it's solid gold. +[4467.84 --> 4469.84] Don't buy your iPad from us. +[4469.84 --> 4473.84] New iPads from major US carriers are network locked. +[4473.84 --> 4476.84] And he basically says, look, we didn't ask for this. +[4476.84 --> 4478.84] We didn't want this. +[4478.84 --> 4482.84] We don't want these iPads to be locked, but they're locked out of the factory. +[4482.84 --> 4483.84] Don't buy your iPad from us. +[4483.84 --> 4485.84] Go buy it from the Apple store. +[4485.84 --> 4486.84] And then bring it to us. +[4486.84 --> 4488.84] Which is great. +[4488.84 --> 4491.84] So the Sims are pre-locked, just to be clear. +[4491.84 --> 4492.84] Yeah. +[4492.84 --> 4494.84] So he just says, what is this? +[4494.84 --> 4495.84] This is stupid. +[4495.84 --> 4498.84] He said, so he tweeted out, my advice to everyone, and I'll get in trouble for this, buy it from +[4498.84 --> 4500.84] the Apple store. +[4500.84 --> 4501.84] Love it. +[4501.84 --> 4502.84] He's great. +[4502.84 --> 4504.84] He's absolutely fantastic. +[4504.84 --> 4507.84] IBM is fighting Ebola with a supercomputer. +[4507.84 --> 4512.84] So they teamed up with Cambridge University Africa's Voices Project, Telco firm. +[4512.84 --> 4513.84] Okay. +[4513.84 --> 4516.84] So they teamed up with a bunch of, wow, a bunch of really important stuff. +[4516.84 --> 4520.84] They developed a system that lets people report Ebola related issues and concerns via +[4520.84 --> 4522.84] SMS or voice calls. +[4522.84 --> 4526.84] And basically what they had to say about it is, for us to tackle Ebola, it is crucial to +[4526.84 --> 4530.84] maintain an open dialogue between the government and the people. +[4530.84 --> 4537.84] So, creating opinion-based heat maps that show areas of worry and areas of infection, and +[4537.84 --> 4541.84] has already highlighted regions with growing numbers of suspected infections. +[4541.84 --> 4546.34] Also working with Nigeria, so they've been cleared of disease, to support preparedness for +[4546.34 --> 4547.34] future outbreaks. +[4547.34 --> 4549.34] You can play Plague Inc. with real life. +[4549.34 --> 4550.34] Cool. +[4550.34 --> 4551.34] Yeah. +[4551.34 --> 4557.34] AMD is going to be launching, or relaunching, the R9 290X with 8 gigs of memory. +[4557.34 --> 4560.34] We actually have a pretty exciting project coming up with that. +[4560.34 --> 4561.34] Yeah. +[4561.34 --> 4569.34] Three 34-inch curved LG monitors running off of triple R9 290X 8 gig cards. +[4569.34 --> 4575.34] We're talking like 15, I think it's like 14 megapixels and change of resolution, surround +[4575.34 --> 4576.34] gaming curve. +[4576.34 --> 4579.34] What's the dollar value in that in just GPUs and monitors? +[4579.34 --> 4580.34] Uh, six grand? +[4580.34 --> 4581.34] Yeah. +[4581.34 --> 4582.34] Nice. +[4582.34 --> 4583.34] Yeah. +[4583.34 --> 4584.34] Like we're talking some badass stuff. +[4584.34 --> 4585.34] That'll look really cool. +[4585.34 --> 4586.34] Nice. +[4586.34 --> 4588.34] Like we're talking, we're talking some badass stuff. +[4588.34 --> 4589.34] That'll look really cool. +[4589.34 --> 4595.34] Currently only available from Sapphire, but Club 3D Power Color, I think MSI is coming +[4595.34 --> 4596.34] out with one. +[4596.34 --> 4601.34] Um, and this will be available for the holiday season in order to better compete, presumably, +[4601.34 --> 4602.34] with the GTX 980. +[4602.34 --> 4606.34] These will be custom-cooled cards with higher clock rates than reference. +[4606.34 --> 4611.34] And to be clear, guys, even AMD is not gonna be like, yeah, 8 gigs of memory, it's gonna +[4611.34 --> 4613.34] like, do things. +[4613.34 --> 4616.34] You know, it's more of a future-proofing thing. +[4616.34 --> 4622.34] It's more of an, if you're running in Crossfire and you're running games at 4K, it's more of +[4622.34 --> 4625.34] a be ready for higher resolution textures. +[4625.34 --> 4628.34] Because we are finally getting games that are able to use a 4G frame buffer. +[4628.34 --> 4633.34] So if you want something that's going to be able to continue to keep up with higher resolution +[4633.34 --> 4635.34] textures, it might be worth considering. +[4635.34 --> 4640.34] I personally hate the F word, future-proofing, but there you go. +[4640.34 --> 4641.34] That's what it is. +[4641.34 --> 4646.34] Um, I did hear a rumor though that Nvidia is planning to launch 8G versions of the 980 and +[4646.34 --> 4648.34] 970 to counter this card. +[4648.34 --> 4650.34] So we'll have to see how that all shakes down. +[4650.34 --> 4654.34] Happy to see that at the same, like, because as long as they have the lower, like, +[4654.34 --> 4659.34] the lower RAM amount, cheaper cards as well, because not everyone will need them, I think +[4659.34 --> 4660.34] it'll be really good. +[4660.34 --> 4662.34] Because some people will, but not everybody. +[4662.34 --> 4667.34] Alright, so, what else we got here? +[4667.34 --> 4671.34] I guess we don't really have much more time, so maybe we'll do some, uh, maybe we'll do +[4671.34 --> 4673.34] some rapid-fire topics. +[4673.34 --> 4674.34] Sure. +[4674.34 --> 4680.34] Speaking of LG and their curved 34-inch monitor, LG releases 31-inch Cinema 4K IPS monitor. +[4680.34 --> 4688.34] So rather than being 3840 by 2160, this is the full 4K, not Ultra HD. +[4688.34 --> 4690.34] To be clear, they are different. +[4690.34 --> 4695.34] I believe it's 4160 by 2160 or 41... +[4695.34 --> 4697.34] Oh crap, now I forget. +[4697.34 --> 4699.34] 4096 by 2160. +[4699.34 --> 4700.34] There we go. +[4700.34 --> 4704.34] The article on RedmondPie.com saved me here. +[4704.34 --> 4711.34] And they are saying that it is suitable for professional use, and considering that it's +[4711.34 --> 4714.34] coming in at a mere $1,400? +[4714.34 --> 4715.34] Wow. +[4715.34 --> 4716.34] Whoa, that's actually cheaper than I thought. +[4716.34 --> 4717.34] That's a lot cheaper than I thought. +[4717.34 --> 4722.34] Still expensive, but it's not as expensive as I expected for that product. +[4722.34 --> 4725.34] Yeah, I mean, compared to other professional-grade displays. +[4725.34 --> 4726.34] Yeah, exactly. +[4726.34 --> 4730.34] I mean, this is a pro-grade resolution, and they're saying it's going to be suitable for, +[4730.34 --> 4734.34] uh, for color work and for professional video editors and all that kind of stuff. +[4734.34 --> 4737.34] This looks absolutely fantastic. +[4737.34 --> 4738.34] Nice, thin bezel. +[4738.34 --> 4743.34] It's, uh, got Thunderbolt capability, so you'll be able to connect it to your Mac Pro. +[4743.34 --> 4749.34] Nice, professional-looking, uh, stand that will look completely at home in an office environment. +[4749.34 --> 4752.34] Looks like it's got some ergonomic adjustments. +[4752.34 --> 4754.34] I don't know if we're going to get pivot here. +[4754.34 --> 4755.34] Yeah. +[4755.34 --> 4759.34] But it looks like we should at least have swivel, height adjust, and tilt. +[4759.34 --> 4760.34] And it does have a VESA mount. +[4760.34 --> 4761.34] VESA, yeah. +[4761.34 --> 4764.34] So you could mount it to another arm if you wanted. +[4764.34 --> 4766.34] One thing we need to do is build logs. +[4766.34 --> 4767.34] Yeah. +[4767.34 --> 4768.34] And there's a new format for that. +[4768.34 --> 4769.34] I don't know if you've seen that. +[4769.34 --> 4770.34] That's fine. +[4770.34 --> 4771.34] Okay. +[4771.34 --> 4774.34] Um, also Reddit is launching their own crowdfunding site. +[4774.34 --> 4778.34] They do seem to be a little late to the party here, but it's called Reddit Made. +[4778.34 --> 4781.34] This was actually posted by TechDreamer on the forum. +[4781.34 --> 4785.34] It's going to focus more on physical goods like t-shirts, and the company will take a small +[4785.34 --> 4789.34] cut of the campaign to cover the costs of its platform. +[4789.34 --> 4791.34] I mean, Reddit has so much potential. +[4791.34 --> 4795.34] They just have, they have so much mind share, and they have such a large audience. +[4795.34 --> 4799.34] It's just, I mean, I don't know that they're ever going to turn Reddit.com into something +[4799.34 --> 4801.34] profitable, but... +[4801.34 --> 4803.34] They could turn spinoffs like this. +[4803.34 --> 4807.34] Spinoffs like this could be the future of that company, and could be the thing that +[4807.34 --> 4810.34] allows them to really turn into a massively profitable company. +[4810.34 --> 4814.34] Their daily gold, Reddit gold thing, has been very helpful for them, I believe. +[4814.34 --> 4815.34] Yep. +[4815.34 --> 4820.34] And the PC Master Race in general, actually, the amount of gold that goes through that +[4820.34 --> 4821.34] subreddit is insane. +[4821.34 --> 4823.34] I don't know if you've ever seen that. +[4823.34 --> 4827.34] They're like one of the most, I think they are the, or one of the most gilded subreddits, +[4827.34 --> 4828.34] like, ever. +[4828.34 --> 4832.34] And they're fairly small compared to other relative subreddits. +[4832.34 --> 4834.34] I think it's only around 250,000 members. +[4834.34 --> 4839.34] I'm not even sure, but they're pretty impressive in terms of helping out Reddit, which is actually +[4839.34 --> 4840.34] pretty cool to see. +[4840.34 --> 4841.34] So this is cool. +[4841.34 --> 4843.34] Project Aura just got an update. +[4843.34 --> 4844.34] Considering it's their home. +[4844.34 --> 4850.34] There is a real live, honest to goodness, functioning test phone that boots into Android. +[4850.34 --> 4856.34] Google plans to hold its second Aura conference on January 14th, so that's right around CES +[4856.34 --> 4857.34] time. +[4857.34 --> 4858.34] And here it is. +[4858.34 --> 4862.34] So there's a, this is on the Phone Blocks blog. +[4862.34 --> 4863.34] Project Aura update. +[4863.34 --> 4865.34] Look at that. +[4865.34 --> 4870.34] Let's go ahead and actually skip to the part where we get to see it. +[4870.34 --> 4871.34] There we go. +[4871.34 --> 4873.34] So you could, oh, dang it. +[4873.34 --> 4874.34] There we go. +[4874.34 --> 4875.34] So, don't move it. +[4875.34 --> 4876.34] Hey, hey, hold still. +[4876.34 --> 4881.34] All right, so you can see that the modules are going to be different sizes here. +[4881.34 --> 4885.34] That's something that I think a lot of people were not really hoping for. +[4885.34 --> 4886.34] Yeah. +[4886.34 --> 4889.34] They were kind of hoping for just a grid-based system on the back and you could rearrange +[4889.34 --> 4891.34] things Tetris style if you wanted to. +[4891.34 --> 4895.34] But I think that as a first step, this probably makes a ton of sense. +[4895.34 --> 4896.34] Yeah. +[4896.34 --> 4900.34] Because not everything needs to be as large as a battery or CPU and cooling module. +[4900.34 --> 4903.34] But yeah, look at that. +[4903.34 --> 4904.34] It boots into Android. +[4904.34 --> 4906.34] So that happens, hold on. +[4906.34 --> 4907.34] There you go. +[4907.34 --> 4908.34] That's really cool. +[4908.34 --> 4909.34] Yeah. +[4909.34 --> 4913.34] And it's not as, it's not as chunky here. +[4913.34 --> 4914.34] But profile view. +[4914.34 --> 4915.34] Hey, got me. +[4915.34 --> 4916.34] It's not, not chunky. +[4916.34 --> 4917.34] Yeah. +[4917.34 --> 4918.34] It's not, not chunky. +[4918.34 --> 4919.34] But it's also not that big either. +[4919.34 --> 4922.34] But it's also not nearly as chunky as I was expecting. +[4922.34 --> 4927.34] And given that we're not going to see a commercial product for another generation or two of other +[4927.34 --> 4930.34] smartphones, it could continue to catch up. +[4930.34 --> 4932.34] When is the release date for Project RF? +[4932.34 --> 4934.34] I, okay, hold on a second. +[4934.34 --> 4935.34] I'm not sure. +[4935.34 --> 4937.34] Because it could be sooner, I think. +[4937.34 --> 4940.34] I don't think they've actually committed to one. +[4940.34 --> 4941.34] January 2015, $50. +[4941.34 --> 4945.34] No, I think this was a fairly, fairly certain thing. +[4945.34 --> 4947.34] The $50 January 2013 thing. +[4947.34 --> 4950.34] I mean January 2015, not 13. +[4950.34 --> 4951.34] I'm in the past. +[4951.34 --> 4953.34] Uh, da, da, da, da, da. +[4953.34 --> 4955.34] Modular smartphone, we'll call it ba-da-da. +[4955.34 --> 4957.34] April 15, 2014. +[4957.34 --> 4959.34] Okay, well, I don't, I'm not, okay. +[4959.34 --> 4960.34] I'm not, okay. +[4960.34 --> 4965.34] If it's the size that it is now, I mean that doesn't actually look that much chunkier than +[4965.34 --> 4967.34] something like an Xperia Z2. +[4967.34 --> 4970.34] I would be very, very, very excited to check this one out. +[4970.34 --> 4971.34] Yeah. +[4971.34 --> 4972.34] And I would definitely order one. +[4972.34 --> 4973.34] Yeah, for sure. +[4973.34 --> 4977.34] Uh, announced today at the Project ARA Developers Conference that it is the first +[4977.34 --> 4982.34] modular smartphone will go on sale in January 2015 for the low price of $50. +[4982.34 --> 4986.34] And it will be a boring grade design, uh, device by design. +[4986.34 --> 4990.34] So to, uh, get people to customize it themselves. +[4990.34 --> 4991.34] Interesting. +[4991.34 --> 4996.34] I don't know if it's still kind of the plan or what, but yeah. +[4996.34 --> 4997.34] All right. +[4997.34 --> 5005.34] So PS4 Slim and Xbox One are both, or PS4 Slim is also, is a rumored thing. +[5005.34 --> 5006.34] Yeah. +[5006.34 --> 5014.34] The PS4 and the Xbox One are both rumored to be getting hardware upgrades sometime in 2015. +[5014.34 --> 5015.34] Wow. +[5015.34 --> 5022.34] If that's not an admission of failure, I mean, what, what, it's, it's funny. +[5022.34 --> 5027.34] The whole PC Master Race thing is kind of funny to me now when a console is just a PC in every +[5027.34 --> 5028.34] possible way. +[5028.34 --> 5029.34] Yeah. +[5029.34 --> 5030.34] Yeah. +[5030.34 --> 5033.34] You still have to download a patch for your game on launch day. +[5033.34 --> 5034.34] Yeah. +[5034.34 --> 5038.34] Regardless of PC or console version, you're still going to need system updates. +[5038.34 --> 5041.34] You're still probably going to need an update when they release these new systems so that +[5041.34 --> 5045.34] you can play older games at higher resolutions and frame rates. +[5045.34 --> 5046.34] Yep. +[5046.34 --> 5050.34] You're going to have to actually look at the back of the, at the back of the disc case in +[5050.34 --> 5053.34] order to find out which system it works for. +[5053.34 --> 5057.34] And you're actually, you're not just going to buy a box and have that work for you for +[5057.34 --> 5058.34] five or eight years or whatever else. +[5058.34 --> 5062.34] You're actually going to have to upgrade except instead of dropping in a new graphics card +[5062.34 --> 5063.34] once in a while. +[5063.34 --> 5071.34] Now you get to buy a completely new box and the real, the really scary thing about Xbox +[5071.34 --> 5078.34] one and PS four and the owners for those consoles is that unlike previous generation consoles +[5078.34 --> 5084.34] like the 360 and the PlayStation three, which I think retained some value because of their +[5084.34 --> 5089.34] game library and Xbox one and a PlayStation four. +[5089.34 --> 5091.34] What value will they have? +[5091.34 --> 5096.34] What value does a console that now, and now developers that whole argument of, Oh, it's +[5096.34 --> 5097.34] easier to develop for the console. +[5097.34 --> 5099.34] Cause it's one piece of hardware. +[5099.34 --> 5100.34] Ha. +[5100.34 --> 5102.34] Now those two consoles are going to be four pieces of hardware. +[5102.34 --> 5107.34] So these, those original launch consoles aren't going to have disadvantages like smaller +[5107.34 --> 5111.34] onboard hard drives or, you know, HD DVD or whatever. +[5111.34 --> 5112.34] It's, it's not going to be like that. +[5112.34 --> 5116.34] It's going to be like, you're going to be running the same games as your buddy with his +[5116.34 --> 5123.34] Xbox one gen two, but at crappier details, just like on the PC, just like if you had +[5123.34 --> 5125.34] another PC and no one is going to want that. +[5125.34 --> 5128.34] And I'm still laughing off in the corner with my Wii U and my PC combo. +[5128.34 --> 5130.34] Cause that's the way to go. +[5130.34 --> 5131.34] So there you go. +[5131.34 --> 5136.34] Anyway, it is Halloween today and I am going trick or treating with my kids. +[5136.34 --> 5137.34] We gotta do the build logs. +[5137.34 --> 5139.34] So we're doing the build log now. +[5139.34 --> 5140.34] And then we're good. +[5140.34 --> 5141.34] Alright, here, you handle this. +[5141.34 --> 5142.34] No, it's super easy. +[5142.34 --> 5143.34] I want you to do it. +[5143.34 --> 5145.34] Click on the, click on the link. +[5145.34 --> 5146.34] Uh huh. +[5146.34 --> 5147.34] No, what? +[5147.34 --> 5148.34] Here, you do it. +[5148.34 --> 5149.34] No, no, go back. +[5149.34 --> 5150.34] Go back, go back, go back, go back. +[5150.34 --> 5151.34] You can do this. +[5151.34 --> 5152.34] You can do this. +[5152.34 --> 5153.34] I hate you. +[5153.34 --> 5154.34] I believe you. +[5154.34 --> 5155.34] Actually the build log. +[5155.34 --> 5156.34] There you go. +[5156.34 --> 5157.34] Uh huh. +[5157.34 --> 5158.34] I want to show you how this works. +[5158.34 --> 5159.34] Yeah. +[5159.34 --> 5160.34] Cause it'll work. +[5160.34 --> 5162.34] Uh, I might want to wait till it goes. +[5162.34 --> 5164.34] Why is it not loading? +[5164.34 --> 5165.34] Really easy. +[5165.34 --> 5167.34] And no! +[5167.34 --> 5169.34] It's really easy though. +[5169.34 --> 5171.34] It's just, there, okay. +[5171.34 --> 5173.34] And then, why is it so slow? +[5173.34 --> 5174.34] You're slow. +[5174.34 --> 5177.34] Aww, that was mean. +[5177.34 --> 5178.34] Hashtag it wrecked. +[5178.34 --> 5182.34] No, you can full screen this once it loads. +[5182.34 --> 5183.34] Full screen you. +[5183.34 --> 5186.34] Speaking of full screen, we're on full screen now. +[5186.34 --> 5187.34] Yay! +[5187.34 --> 5189.34] We actually changed YouTube networks, so. +[5189.34 --> 5191.34] We're still gonna be doing all, did I mention this already? +[5191.34 --> 5192.34] I don't think so. +[5192.34 --> 5193.34] Oh, okay. +[5193.34 --> 5196.34] I think you mentioned that you were going to in the after party last week. +[5196.34 --> 5197.34] Oh. +[5197.34 --> 5198.34] I don't think everyone saw it. +[5198.34 --> 5199.34] I could be wrong. +[5199.34 --> 5200.34] Okay, well whatever. +[5200.34 --> 5201.34] We're still gonna live stream on Twitch. +[5201.34 --> 5202.34] We still love Twitch. +[5202.34 --> 5203.34] They're good guys. +[5203.34 --> 5205.34] Uh, but we're on full screen for YouTube now. +[5205.34 --> 5206.34] Yeah. +[5206.34 --> 5207.34] Okay, so I'll full screen this. +[5207.34 --> 5210.34] I will get us the truck out of the frame. +[5210.34 --> 5211.34] Yes, I want to allow it. +[5211.34 --> 5212.34] Alright. +[5212.34 --> 5214.34] So this is the voters pick. +[5214.34 --> 5217.34] This is Mr. Tough 2.0, which you can probably see why it's called that. +[5217.34 --> 5218.34] Cause it has a saber tooth. +[5218.34 --> 5219.34] Saber tooth. +[5219.34 --> 5221.34] Saber tooth tough series motherboard. +[5221.34 --> 5222.34] Yeah. +[5222.34 --> 5223.34] Carbide air 540. +[5223.34 --> 5224.34] Yeah. +[5224.34 --> 5227.34] 90 gig Kingston hyper X. +[5227.34 --> 5228.34] That's an older, wow that's an older SSD. +[5228.34 --> 5229.34] And a 240. +[5229.34 --> 5230.34] And a 240 gig. +[5230.34 --> 5231.34] Yeah. +[5231.34 --> 5232.34] Lots of water cooling gear. +[5232.34 --> 5233.34] So this is a progress shot. +[5233.34 --> 5234.34] Oh, very nice. +[5234.34 --> 5235.34] Definitely progress shot. +[5235.34 --> 5236.34] Keep going. +[5236.34 --> 5237.34] Now it looks totally different. +[5237.34 --> 5238.34] Whoa. +[5238.34 --> 5243.34] That's a cool, that's like a carbon fiber. +[5243.34 --> 5244.34] Digicamo. +[5244.34 --> 5247.34] Digicamo cool like thing actually. +[5247.34 --> 5248.34] Yeah. +[5248.34 --> 5249.34] I like it. +[5249.34 --> 5251.34] I do really like it overall. +[5251.34 --> 5255.34] The only thing I was like, what was the cable sleeving? +[5255.34 --> 5260.34] Cause everything is like, even the rings on the fans are green and all the tubing is green. +[5260.34 --> 5263.34] And then the motherboard is all crazy and stuff and the cable sleeving is like, what did we do? +[5263.34 --> 5265.34] There was an opportunity to do camo sleeving here. +[5265.34 --> 5266.34] Yes. +[5266.34 --> 5267.34] Definitely. +[5267.34 --> 5268.34] That's the only thing. +[5268.34 --> 5269.34] It's amazingly cool computer. +[5269.34 --> 5270.34] Look at that. +[5270.34 --> 5271.34] I love what he did with it. +[5271.34 --> 5272.34] Love that. +[5272.34 --> 5276.34] Love that this matches the inside over here. +[5276.34 --> 5278.34] Super, super cool. +[5278.34 --> 5279.34] I really like it. +[5279.34 --> 5281.34] I think you would just escape to get out of it. +[5281.34 --> 5282.34] And then there's one more. +[5282.34 --> 5283.34] Then there's the staff pick. +[5283.34 --> 5286.34] And the procedure is the same. +[5286.34 --> 5292.34] Alright, so I wait for the slowest balls, supposedly easy to use, sight to load here. +[5292.34 --> 5293.34] There we go. +[5293.34 --> 5294.34] That was a little bit better. +[5294.34 --> 5295.34] Alright, so this is Ark. +[5295.34 --> 5296.34] There you go. +[5296.34 --> 5297.34] Ark of the Covenant. +[5297.34 --> 5300.34] By iKym. +[5300.34 --> 5302.34] This is the staff pick. +[5302.34 --> 5307.34] You know, they should remake Raiders with the Ark of the Covenant being like Halo themed. +[5307.34 --> 5311.34] No they shouldn't. +[5311.34 --> 5313.34] There's a different covenant mind you. +[5313.34 --> 5314.34] No. +[5314.34 --> 5317.34] It's funny cause both of those things work, but they should really not do that. +[5317.34 --> 5319.34] Wow, I love this. +[5319.34 --> 5322.34] Dual Xeons, 64 gig SSD. +[5322.34 --> 5325.34] But then three 120 gig SSDs. +[5325.34 --> 5326.34] Yeah. +[5326.34 --> 5327.34] Two 7870 Hawk edition. +[5327.34 --> 5331.34] So I'm thinking gaming is a lower priority than crunching. +[5331.34 --> 5332.34] Wow. +[5332.34 --> 5335.34] Didn't expect that small of a case. +[5335.34 --> 5336.34] Wow. +[5336.34 --> 5337.34] That is very cool. +[5337.34 --> 5339.34] So this is in the beginning. +[5339.34 --> 5340.34] Uh huh. +[5340.34 --> 5341.34] Some tweaks. +[5341.34 --> 5342.34] Liking it. +[5342.34 --> 5343.34] Liking them tracer memory modules. +[5343.34 --> 5344.34] That's so sick. +[5344.34 --> 5345.34] All that blue. +[5345.34 --> 5346.34] Wow. +[5346.34 --> 5347.34] What a sexy rig. +[5347.34 --> 5348.34] Super nice. +[5348.34 --> 5355.34] Lee and Lee does such a great job of the designs of their cases. +[5355.34 --> 5356.34] Yeah. +[5356.34 --> 5364.34] We actually have a review for a PCQ-19 Lee and Lee case coming out this weekend. +[5364.34 --> 5368.34] And I was, I was, I love the aesthetics of it. +[5368.34 --> 5369.34] I love the design. +[5369.34 --> 5371.34] But the performance of it is just not there. +[5371.34 --> 5376.34] I make some suggestions though in terms of tweaks for the case that I want to see made. +[5376.34 --> 5387.34] And I really hope that either Lee and Lee or maybe Silverstone, I have some hope for Silverstone, or Cooler Master, the ones that I originally pitched this idea to, I hope someone makes the case that I'm asking for. +[5387.34 --> 5395.34] Because I think we could do a fully custom ITX gaming rig in a case the size of a PS4 if we do it right. +[5395.34 --> 5396.34] Yeah. +[5396.34 --> 5397.34] With a couple of expansion drives. +[5397.34 --> 5399.34] I know you've been talking about that for a little while, yeah. +[5399.34 --> 5401.34] Uh, yeah, for a little while. +[5401.34 --> 5403.34] For a little while I've been talking about that. +[5403.34 --> 5405.34] I really do want that to happen. +[5405.34 --> 5407.34] Yeah, I completely agree. +[5407.34 --> 5408.34] Alright. +[5408.34 --> 5409.34] So, I, I don't know. +[5409.34 --> 5414.34] Here's, I guess, one really cool, one really cool update. +[5414.34 --> 5421.34] Um, EVGA has just confirmed that they have shipped us a GTX 980 classified. +[5421.34 --> 5424.34] So we will have a video coming out about that. +[5424.34 --> 5425.34] Uh, this is great. +[5425.34 --> 5430.34] They figure out of the box the card should do around 1570 megahertz OC. +[5430.34 --> 5431.34] Out of the box. +[5431.34 --> 5432.34] Yep. +[5432.34 --> 5435.34] And in the next few weeks they figure 1600 plus. +[5435.34 --> 5436.34] That'll be fun. +[5436.34 --> 5437.34] I'm excited to play with that. +[5437.34 --> 5438.34] Yeah. +[5438.34 --> 5439.34] That's cool. +[5439.34 --> 5440.34] Yeah, yeah. +[5440.34 --> 5441.34] So, so yeah, that should be, that should be pretty good. +[5441.34 --> 5442.34] Nice. +[5442.34 --> 5447.34] Also, we are, we are already talking to other manufacturers about doing more factory tours. +[5447.34 --> 5450.34] So a lot of you guys loved the Cherry MX factory tour. +[5450.34 --> 5452.34] We have the Sennheiser one coming still. +[5452.34 --> 5453.34] Yeah. +[5453.34 --> 5459.34] So it was, uh, Cherry and Sennheiser that sponsored us to, to be over there and to do those factory +[5459.34 --> 5460.34] tours. +[5460.34 --> 5465.34] I mean, honestly, like between, between you guys and me and the wall, we did not make money +[5465.34 --> 5466.34] on the trip. +[5466.34 --> 5467.34] No. +[5467.34 --> 5469.34] So it was just a matter of, we had to pay for flights. +[5469.34 --> 5473.34] I had to pay for people to like work for me and be there and stuff. +[5473.34 --> 5477.34] But, but the company didn't, didn't pull a profit on that trip. +[5477.34 --> 5481.34] I just thought it would be like a really cool experience and potentially really cool content. +[5481.34 --> 5482.34] It was more of an experiment. +[5482.34 --> 5486.34] And we have heard you guys, you have spoken, you want more factory tours. +[5486.34 --> 5490.34] So we're talking to a couple of companies based in, with their manufacturing based in +[5490.34 --> 5492.34] Taiwan about potentially doing some more of them. +[5492.34 --> 5495.34] Cause we're trying to like bundle up trips cause then it makes a lot more financial sense. +[5495.34 --> 5496.34] Yes. +[5496.34 --> 5499.34] It's really hard to justify going somewhere. +[5499.34 --> 5501.34] Individual trip every time. +[5501.34 --> 5502.34] One company. +[5502.34 --> 5503.34] No. +[5503.34 --> 5507.34] So if we can get two or three on board, then it becomes less of a burden for the sponsors +[5507.34 --> 5509.34] to pay for all of our travel expenses and all that. +[5509.34 --> 5514.34] And it becomes more sensible for us to be out of the office for a week to, you know, +[5514.34 --> 5517.34] create more than one video hopefully. +[5517.34 --> 5518.34] Yes. +[5518.34 --> 5519.34] So lots of exciting stuff coming. +[5519.34 --> 5521.34] Also we've got videos. +[5521.34 --> 5526.34] Oh, mineral oil video two is going to be coming next week. +[5526.34 --> 5527.34] So stay tuned for that. +[5527.34 --> 5532.34] And we will hopefully do mineral oil three next week. +[5532.34 --> 5535.34] Hopefully we'll film mineral oil three next week. +[5535.34 --> 5536.34] Yeah. +[5536.34 --> 5537.34] So that we can keep it kind of rolling. +[5537.34 --> 5540.34] I'm hoping to film X 99 overclocking guide next week as well. +[5540.34 --> 5543.34] Actually, we've got lots of great stuff coming over the next little bit. +[5543.34 --> 5544.34] We'll see you in the other board videos. +[5544.34 --> 5545.34] Yep. +[5545.34 --> 5546.34] I don't know when those will be ready. +[5546.34 --> 5547.34] Right. +[5547.34 --> 5548.34] Yeah. +[5548.34 --> 5549.34] Do you want to talk about what you're working on though? +[5549.34 --> 5550.34] Should we do this in after party? +[5550.34 --> 5551.34] Sure. +[5551.34 --> 5552.34] Okay. +[5552.34 --> 5553.34] The lunch is over. +[5553.34 --> 5554.34] Bye. +[5554.34 --> 5555.34] Bye. +[5555.34 --> 5558.34] We're going to take this hat off because it's making my nose itchy. +[5558.34 --> 5559.34] That made sense. +[5559.34 --> 5560.34] It's these things. +[5560.34 --> 5561.34] Yeah. +[5561.34 --> 5564.34] Are you sure your nose is itchy because... +[5564.34 --> 5571.34] Where are you going with that one? +[5571.34 --> 5572.34] Looks gonna calm down. +[5572.34 --> 5573.34] Bye. +[5573.34 --> 5574.34] I guess we love that. +[5574.34 --> 5575.34] I'll see you inاخ the old 70s. +[5575.34 --> 5596.34] I know a bit more Marks and loaf sheippo memes with his funciona. +[5596.34 --> 5599.34] No Hero style for the games.

10.00] Okay guys, welcome to the WAN show. Hopefully there are no technical difficulties today because we're live without doing a test stream. +[10.00 --> 17.00] I love how Twitch didn't tell their biggest partner that they now have YouTube integration. +[17.00 --> 20.00] Thanks guys. +[20.00 --> 21.00] Yeah! +[21.00 --> 27.00] Oh right, right, I thought you meant their biggest partner in general, but you mean in terms of their YouTube network. +[27.00 --> 32.00] Their biggest YouTube network didn't know that they now have YouTube integration with Twitch. +[32.00 --> 33.00] Yeah, well. +[33.00 --> 34.00] Yeah! +[34.00 --> 42.00] I think they've got, you know, other things to deal with. You know, I don't feel too bad about it. +[42.00 --> 50.00] Anyway, guys, welcome to the WAN show. We've got a fantastic show planned for you today, as we always do. +[50.00 --> 56.00] Every show is great. The part that I lied about was the planning. I don't even have the document up on my computer yet. +[56.00 --> 58.00] You tell them about the show. +[58.00 --> 62.00] We have just general disintent for Ubisoft. +[62.00 --> 63.00] Disintent? +[63.00 --> 64.00] I said the wrong word. +[64.00 --> 69.00] We're just going to invent words because there are no words for how dissatisfied we are. +[69.00 --> 70.00] There we go. +[70.00 --> 72.00] With how Ubisoft is treating PC gamers. +[72.00 --> 75.00] Disintent. I am full of disintent. +[75.00 --> 77.00] They're full of disintent. +[77.00 --> 83.00] Their disintentions are discombobulating my disintry and... +[83.00 --> 84.00] I love my taking real words. +[84.00 --> 85.00] We just got dissed. +[85.00 --> 87.00] Surrounding them with fake ones. +[87.00 --> 93.00] And EA might not suck as much anymore, but they haven't made that an actionable item yet. +[93.00 --> 94.00] So... +[94.00 --> 96.00] Haven't made it an actionable? What are you even talking about? +[96.00 --> 97.00] They haven't done anything with it. +[97.00 --> 100.00] They're just like, yeah, they're pulling the Microsoft thing. +[100.00 --> 101.00] They're pulling the Microsoft thing. +[101.00 --> 103.00] We're going to support PC gaming! +[103.00 --> 104.00] Sometime. +[104.00 --> 107.00] But EA's never actually gone that far before. +[107.00 --> 109.00] So this is still a step in the right direction. +[109.00 --> 110.00] That's true. +[110.00 --> 112.00] Usually they're just like, screw you guys. +[112.00 --> 115.00] At least they're paying lip service to the PC gaming community. +[115.00 --> 116.00] This is true. +[116.00 --> 117.00] This is true. +[117.00 --> 122.00] T-Mobile test drive ripped off a Linus Tech Tips idea and will be allowing people to something something tell you later. +[122.00 --> 123.00] Um... +[123.00 --> 126.00] Almost went a little bit too far. +[126.00 --> 131.00] And we now have a new beta for the front page of Linus Tech Tips.com, which you can check out. +[131.00 --> 133.00] It's sort of badass. +[133.00 --> 135.00] It's like sort of the best thing ever. +[135.00 --> 139.00] It was designed by me, coded by me, and all the articles were written by me. +[139.00 --> 143.00] The lies just got bigger and bigger, didn't they?

+[308.00 --> 313.00] And I was like, apparently we need an image for this thing, which may or may not be a thing. +[313.00 --> 315.00] And then now we're giving away processors on it? +[315.00 --> 316.00] That's right! +[316.00 --> 317.00] That's cool. +[317.00 --> 318.00] We're crazy! +[318.00 --> 321.00] Like, this is legitimate, like, I actually had literally no idea. +[321.00 --> 322.00] We make snap decisions! +[322.00 --> 325.00] Speaking of making snap decisions... +[325.00 --> 326.00] Are you giving away mine? +[326.00 --> 327.00] Your what? +[327.00 --> 329.00] The ones that I've been testing? +[329.00 --> 330.00] No! +[330.00 --> 331.00] Okay, cool. +[331.00 --> 332.00] Yeah, don't worry. +[332.00 --> 333.00] It's all good. +[333.00 --> 334.00] I like those ones. +[334.00 --> 335.00] They did well. +[335.00 --> 336.00] We got new ones. +[336.00 --> 337.00] We got new ones. +[337.00 --> 338.00] Okay, so I have the wrong document up still, so... +[338.00 --> 339.00] You're on point. +[339.00 --> 340.00] Oh no, here we go. +[340.00 --> 345.00] Alright, so the headline this week, all the fail. +[345.00 --> 352.00] Ubisoft, could you have shot yourselves in the foot any better if you tried? +[352.00 --> 353.00] Do you wanna go through this? +[353.00 --> 357.00] Well, I'll manage what they're looking at on my screen here, okay? +[357.00 --> 364.00] I don't understand how people haven't figured it out yet that, one, like, don't lie to PC +[364.00 --> 365.00] gamers. +[365.00 --> 368.00] Gamers in general, but don't lie to PC gamers. +[368.00 --> 370.00] They're gonna, like, Gabe has a quote. +[370.00 --> 374.00] Like, really, really good quote, but like, yeah, don't lie to the internet because they'll +[374.00 --> 379.00] figure it out, they'll plaster it everywhere, and they'll never ever forget about it. +[379.00 --> 381.00] And it's just like, what are you doing? +[381.00 --> 382.00] So, so basically... +[382.00 --> 385.00] It all started on a misty day. +[385.00 --> 387.00] Fog covered day. +[387.00 --> 389.00] With great headlight effects. +[389.00 --> 390.00] Back in 2012. +[390.00 --> 392.00] In E3 2012. +[392.00 --> 395.00] All, all the fanboys were excited. +[395.00 --> 402.00] About Watch Dogs, with its amazing graphical fidelity, being showcased on the PC. +[402.00 --> 407.00] They, they, they dreamt of nights in future days, when they could spend time... +[407.00 --> 408.00] Nights in future days? +[408.00 --> 409.00] You can listen to yourself. +[409.00 --> 416.00] When they spend time reacting to the light effects and lens flare of aforementioned Watch Dogs. +[416.00 --> 418.00] And the depth of field. +[418.00 --> 420.00] And then Watch Dogs launched, here in 2014. +[420.00 --> 422.00] And it looked like total poo. +[422.00 --> 424.00] Well, total poo is unfair. +[424.00 --> 425.00] It looked like... +[425.00 --> 431.00] But what we can say is that it didn't look as good as Far Cry 3, which is a Ubisoft title... +[431.00 --> 432.00] And old. +[432.00 --> 433.00] And not new. +[433.00 --> 438.00] So, talk about this NeoGAF article that I've had sitting on my screen for a bit here. +[438.00 --> 439.00] What is this? +[439.00 --> 446.00] Okay, so, two different modders, CADZ824 and TheWorse, I'm more familiar with TheWorse, have +[446.00 --> 449.00] released mods which unlock original graphics effects. +[449.00 --> 454.00] To do this, they, they had to, it's a lot harder than I'm gonna explain right now, but effectively, +[454.00 --> 456.00] they just turned things on. +[456.00 --> 458.00] They had to find them, which was extremely difficult. +[458.00 --> 462.00] They had to gain access to them, which was extremely difficult, and all that kind of stuff. +[462.00 --> 464.00] But, essentially, it's already there. +[464.00 --> 466.00] They just had to turn it on. +[466.00 --> 470.00] Which is fantastically amazing and horrible at the same time. +[470.00 --> 475.00] It turns on tons and tons of different effects, like... +[475.00 --> 480.00] I love how Ubisoft's, I'm gonna go into Ubisoft's response first, before I turn it on. +[480.00 --> 482.00] Yeah, Ubisoft's response is classic. +[482.00 --> 487.00] So, this is really long, but it goes, the dev team is completely dedicated to getting the most out of each platform. +[487.00 --> 488.00] So, the notion that we would... +[488.00 --> 490.00] Wait, you haven't talked about the stuff yet! Hold on! +[490.00 --> 494.00] I wanna talk, show this, and then show the improvements. +[494.00 --> 496.00] Because they contradict themselves a little bit. +[496.00 --> 497.00] Stressing me out. +[497.00 --> 500.00] Okay, so, we wanna get the most out of each platform, whatever. +[500.00 --> 504.00] The notion that we would actively downgrade quality is contrary to everything we've set out to achieve. +[504.00 --> 510.00] We test and optimize our games for each platform on which they're released, striving for the best quality possible. +[510.00 --> 512.00] I'm mixing this up a little bit. +[512.00 --> 523.00] The PC version does indeed contain some old, unused render settings that were deactivated for a variety of reasons, including possible impacts on visual fidelity, stability, performance, and overall gameplay. +[523.00 --> 525.00] Then it goes on to some long stuff after that. +[525.00 --> 529.00] But I just wanted to show the, like, we deactivated it because of stability and stuff. +[529.00 --> 538.00] In the patch notes for the mods, and in a lot of the reports that I've been reading from people that have tried these mods, also known as pretty much all of them, +[538.00 --> 545.00] It's, it runs smoother, it's faster, it's just as or more stable, and looks way better. +[545.00 --> 551.00] Because they've done things like, uh, allowing E3 2012 bloom, which is a setting. Ridiculous. +[551.00 --> 560.00] Uh, performance improvements, enabled headlight shadows, LED changes, reflection changes, added three new camera changes, like closer, normal, further. +[560.00 --> 567.00] To give credit where credit is due, this is TotalBiscuit's 25 minute rant on how ridiculous this is. +[567.00 --> 573.00] Where he figures the only two conclusions, uh, for why Ubisoft might have turned off all of these settings. +[573.00 --> 581.00] Because he's sitting here, playing the game, with everything turned on, getting about the same performance that he was, without all this stuff turned on. +[581.00 --> 588.00] When the theory, you know, in your mind, is that more graphical fidelity is supposed to make the game run worse, unless they're intentionally handicapping it. +[588.00 --> 595.00] So he comes up with two conclusions. Number one is gross incompetence, and number two is that they're liars. +[595.00 --> 598.00] And those are basically the only ones that I can come up with too. +[598.00 --> 602.00] So anyway, keep going, I'm just gonna let them watch TotalBiscuit play this game, because he's a good guy. +[602.00 --> 606.00] And this is a, this is a pretty good video about how stupid this whole situation is. +[606.00 --> 613.00] Yeah, so they added all that stuff, they also added stuff like lens flare, lighting changes, civilian density, tons of stuff. +[613.00 --> 622.00] And there's even more stuff coming on the way that they're planning to improve, and because they've broken into it this far, I expect actual full mods to come out at some point, which aren't just turning things on. +[622.00 --> 630.00] Which like, this is still absolute, I'm not, I'm not trying to downgrade what Cadzate and the worse are doing, I'm just saying, uh, it could be different from there. +[630.00 --> 645.00] Um, then, people started freaking out because there was a Softpedia article with a quote from Ubisoft talking about Far Cry 4, saying that Far Cry 4 on PC at maximum settings will look the same as it does on consoles. +[645.00 --> 647.00] So... +[647.00 --> 660.00] And their claim here, so their, their BS claim is, oh yeah, yeah, well we, we dev'd it on the PC, and then we just, we just like, plugged that code into the, the current gen new consoles. +[660.00 --> 671.00] And it like, ran so amazing that everyone's gonna have the best experience regardless of, oh, what was that, as stunning as next gen console games are starting to look. +[671.00 --> 679.00] Wait, no, that's Forbes, right? So, even out of the box, even day one, we just stuck the code on the new consoles, and we were able to dial it all the way up. +[679.00 --> 684.00] So as a console player, you're already getting by far the best version we can ship. +[686.00 --> 687.00] Can ship? +[687.00 --> 698.00] Also known as, they went through and scrubbed their code this time, took out everything that mentioned anything about PC, turned, like, instead of just turning settings off, completely removed them, and then went, yeah, that's what you're getting. +[698.00 --> 711.00] So, to make matters worse, I don't know if this is actually in your notes, but the word on the street is that the Watch Dogs performance patch that was supposed to come at the beginning of this month, is going to disable the hack. +[712.00 --> 714.00] No, I had never heard of that. +[714.00 --> 715.00] Yeah. +[715.00 --> 716.00] Really? +[716.00 --> 721.00] So basically, Ubisoft just keeps on digging. +[721.00 --> 724.00] Is that, is that actually like a really good source that that's from? +[724.00 --> 729.00] I'm going to have to double check. I'll tell you what, I will double check right now, but... +[729.00 --> 732.00] Okay, I can go into the rest of what Ubisoft's response was. +[732.00 --> 733.00] Yeah. +[733.00 --> 735.00] So, da-da-da-da-da. +[735.00 --> 748.00] Modders are usually creative and passionate players, and while we appreciate their enthusiasm, the mod in question, which uses those old settings, subjectively enhances the game's visual fidelity in certain situations, but also can have various negative impacts. +[748.00 --> 750.00] Never seen any of those. +[750.00 --> 753.00] There's a little bit of headlight flicker that TotalBiscuit noticed. +[753.00 --> 754.00] Oh no. +[754.00 --> 757.00] He's even said it wasn't a big deal. +[757.00 --> 758.00] Yeah. +[758.00 --> 759.00] Yeah. +[759.00 --> 760.00] If there's someone who's going to criticize like graphical fidelity... +[760.00 --> 761.00] It's going to be TotalBiscuit. +[761.00 --> 762.00] It'll be TotalBiscuit. +[762.00 --> 763.00] So, there's that. +[763.00 --> 764.00] Da-da-da-da-da. +[764.00 --> 767.00] Da-da-da-da. +[767.00 --> 770.00] Those could range from performance issues, nope. +[770.00 --> 773.00] To difficulty in reading the environment, nope. +[773.00 --> 775.00] Da-da-da-da-da. +[775.00 --> 780.00] To potentially making the game less enjoyable or even unstable, nope and nope. +[780.00 --> 785.00] So, nothing that they've claimed has actually been like perceived by anyone. +[785.00 --> 789.00] So, what they're trying to save people from doesn't exist, and that's frustrating. +[791.00 --> 802.00] Then, jumping over to the Far Cry 4 thing, apparently the Softpedia article is not a very good article because of misquoting and other kind of stuff like that. +[802.00 --> 809.00] If you ignore that, the Ubisoft Montreal creator, that's when they start saying like, oh we just dialed everything up and it looked amazing. +[809.00 --> 810.00] Um... +[811.00 --> 815.00] That makes me not necessarily think that the Softpedia article was even necessarily a misquote. +[815.00 --> 818.00] I think it was just in the way that they used the... +[818.00 --> 820.00] I guess that's technically misquoting. +[820.00 --> 827.00] It's like, it's still the truth, just because they quoted it kind of in a weird way doesn't necessarily mean it's wrong. +[827.00 --> 828.00] Because they are... +[828.00 --> 836.00] There's no way you're just like, oh yeah, we dev'd everything on PC, didn't taste anything on consoles ever, and then plugged it in, and it just everything went to max. +[837.00 --> 839.00] That's not... that's not how that works. +[839.00 --> 841.00] I kind of wonder how the devs feel. +[841.00 --> 846.00] You know, the ones that actually care about delivering the best product that they possibly can. +[846.00 --> 853.00] Those like... that like group of hardcore guys which are actually super badass and made all the settings and stuff for Watch Dogs, and then just had them all turned off. +[854.00 --> 855.00] Yeah, that's gotta suck. +[855.00 --> 856.00] And you gotta... you gotta wonder... +[856.00 --> 859.00] And they're probably under some sort of agreement so they can't say shit. +[859.00 --> 864.00] You gotta wonder how intentionally gimped the performance is then. +[864.00 --> 869.00] If they were able to enable all that stuff and have it run basically the same. +[869.00 --> 872.00] Um, I just... I just... yeah. +[873.00 --> 877.00] I don't know. I've had people message me telling me that we shouldn't do benchmarking videos early. +[877.00 --> 880.00] Well, that's the only way to get views. +[880.00 --> 881.00] It's one of those things. +[881.00 --> 882.00] Well, no, it's... +[882.00 --> 884.00] Should you review a game early or should you wait till the first patch? +[884.00 --> 891.00] Well, if you review the game right out of the gate, then people will watch your video, and if you review after the first patch, you might have a better gaming experience, but... +[891.00 --> 894.00] But at the same time, ship your game properly. +[894.00 --> 895.00] Yeah. +[895.00 --> 897.00] Like, release your game so that it's playable. +[897.00 --> 905.00] Uh, if we... if we review performance of your game right out of the gate, that'll give people the benefit when your game performs really well at... +[905.00 --> 910.00] Out right out of the gate, how it should, of having a very good performance review from us. +[910.00 --> 912.00] Okay, here we go. So the mod still works. +[912.00 --> 917.00] You just have to unpack the files and then repack them with the new patch.dat. +[917.00 --> 927.00] Okay, so the worst mod still works, but the patch does disable it, and also apparently doesn't fix the stuttering issue while driving, so... +[927.00 --> 929.00] Thanks, guys. +[929.00 --> 933.00] You just made it slightly more annoying for no reason. +[933.00 --> 934.00] Ugh. +[934.00 --> 935.00] Yay. +[935.00 --> 938.00] Luckily, that's still way easier than modding things like it used to be, so... +[938.00 --> 939.00] I don't know if that's... +[939.00 --> 942.00] Yeah, yeah, I guess this makes the modding community's job, in general, easier. +[942.00 --> 949.00] Like, imagine how quickly they could do those GTA mods if the developer just did all the work, and someone just had to dig around and... +[949.00 --> 950.00] And then just turn it on. +[950.00 --> 951.00] And then just turn it on. +[951.00 --> 952.00] And then just turn it on. +[952.00 --> 956.00] It's kinda like how overclocking's gotten so much easier over the last few years. +[956.00 --> 960.00] You just press the OC button, it's gonna be like, just press the, like, mod button. +[960.00 --> 965.00] Oh, yeah, these are the PC settings we didn't turn on. +[965.00 --> 966.00] There you go. +[966.00 --> 968.00] This should just be on the launcher. +[968.00 --> 969.00] There should be like a... +[969.00 --> 975.00] This is made for PC, but if you actually wanna play it as if you own a PC, make sure you click this button before you load the game. +[975.00 --> 977.00] It's just like, okay, click. +[977.00 --> 978.00] Thanks. +[978.00 --> 979.00] Fantastic. +[979.00 --> 981.00] So, yeah, everyone hates Ubi. +[981.00 --> 987.00] And then there's a bunch of stuff that's been going around that didn't get quoted up here for some reason, but I still have it down in the bottom. +[987.00 --> 990.00] Where's that Twitter thing? +[990.00 --> 991.00] Ubi Tessa. +[991.00 --> 993.00] Oh, this is epic. +[993.00 --> 994.00] Okay, hold on. +[994.00 --> 995.00] Let me bring this up. +[995.00 --> 1007.00] Because, I mean, their PR department, in their defense, I can't imagine that they know what to do or what to say at this point, but this wasn't it. +[1007.00 --> 1012.00] Yeah, so I was worried that it was edited and then I noticed the picture was different, so I freaked out a little bit. +[1012.00 --> 1014.00] But it looks like it's the same. +[1014.00 --> 1017.00] Okay, so here's a tweet from B-E-L-O. +[1017.00 --> 1021.00] In a tweet a couple of months ago, you said Watch Dogs graphics were not downgraded. +[1021.00 --> 1023.00] Do you still hold this to be true? +[1023.00 --> 1026.00] I recall replying saying that the game was not downgraded. +[1026.00 --> 1028.00] I still stick to that yes. +[1028.00 --> 1029.00] Wow. +[1029.00 --> 1031.00] Yikes. +[1031.00 --> 1035.00] It's like, yeah, Tessa, this is from Ryan. +[1035.00 --> 1038.00] Tessa, you might want to put your foot in your mouth here. +[1038.00 --> 1041.00] I don't think that that's actually what putting your foot in your mouth means, Ryan. +[1041.00 --> 1042.00] You did very well though. +[1042.00 --> 1045.00] But basically, you guys are all over the front page of Reddit. +[1045.00 --> 1047.00] I don't envy your PR team right now. +[1047.00 --> 1051.00] I'm surprised they didn't get them to turn it off. +[1051.00 --> 1054.00] I'm surprised that they issued a statement at all. +[1054.00 --> 1062.00] I'm surprised that they didn't just wait quietly for this to be swept under the rug where the hardcores were going to remember it and mostly people would forget. +[1062.00 --> 1068.00] Unfortunately, they've added so much to the fuel to the fire that, again, I'm going to bring up Total Biscuit. +[1068.00 --> 1069.00] But check this out. +[1069.00 --> 1071.00] WTF is Watch Dogs. +[1071.00 --> 1075.00] So the Watch Dogs review, 850,000 views from three weeks ago. +[1075.00 --> 1083.00] The Was Watch Dogs on PC Handicapped on Purpose video from three days ago, 520,000 views. +[1083.00 --> 1087.00] They are letting this spin out of control. +[1087.00 --> 1099.00] And they are adding fuel to the fire by denying it publicly instead of just addressing it and promising to the community to issue an official patch that turns everything back on. +[1099.00 --> 1105.00] There is no way to fix this at this point other than shut up. +[1105.00 --> 1109.00] And that doesn't really fix it because lots of people will still be mad. +[1109.00 --> 1114.00] Or just go full on, look, our bad. We're sorry. +[1114.00 --> 1116.00] Which, you know what, that probably would have worked. +[1116.00 --> 1118.00] That would have definitely worked. +[1118.00 --> 1123.00] Honestly, the gaming community, like, if you shake their hand and pat them on the back a little bit, they're usually cool. +[1123.00 --> 1124.00] Yeah. +[1124.00 --> 1127.00] They'll get super pissed and they will literally try to murder you. +[1127.00 --> 1129.00] But if you're like, hey, let's be friends. +[1129.00 --> 1130.00] Literally try to murder you? +[1130.00 --> 1131.00] Not literally. +[1131.00 --> 1132.00] There's been attempts. +[1132.00 --> 1133.00] Well, okay. +[1133.00 --> 1136.00] There's this quote by Sebastian Viard. +[1136.00 --> 1137.00] I hope I'm saying that correctly. +[1137.00 --> 1142.00] Watch Dogs can use 3 plus gigabytes of RAM on NG consoles for graphics. +[1142.00 --> 1147.00] Your PC GPU needs enough VRAM for ultra options due to the lack of unified memory. +[1147.00 --> 1148.00] Who is this? +[1148.00 --> 1149.00] Sebastian Viard. +[1149.00 --> 1150.00] Oh, excellent. +[1150.00 --> 1151.00] It's like, okay. +[1151.00 --> 1160.00] Then where's the, I don't know exactly where it is, but I just wanted to bring up the, there it is. +[1160.00 --> 1161.00] Gay Ben. +[1161.00 --> 1162.00] Oh, okay. +[1162.00 --> 1163.00] Can you show me where that is? +[1163.00 --> 1166.00] Because it's not actually helpful for you to bring things up on your screen. +[1166.00 --> 1167.00] It's here. +[1167.00 --> 1169.00] That's why I'm highlighting it. +[1169.00 --> 1170.00] Okay. +[1170.00 --> 1171.00] There we go. +[1171.00 --> 1173.00] So here's the, here's the quote from Gay Ben. +[1173.00 --> 1177.00] Here's a little quote that everyone in the gaming industry needs to remember. +[1177.00 --> 1178.00] Yeah. +[1178.00 --> 1183.00] Don't ever, ever try to lie to the internet because they will catch you. +[1183.00 --> 1185.00] They will deconstruct your spin. +[1185.00 --> 1187.00] They will remember everything you say for eternity. +[1187.00 --> 1191.00] It's like, yeah, yeah, they will. +[1191.00 --> 1198.00] So changing gears, um, EA has actually done a couple of things this week that are looking +[1198.00 --> 1199.00] pretty positive. +[1199.00 --> 1206.00] So the original poster on LinusTechTips.com is Rafe or Raffi or, Raffi or anyway. +[1206.00 --> 1213.00] Um, and EA says they have plans for how they intend to change the way they make games. +[1213.00 --> 1218.00] So the original article here is from PCGamer.com and this is right from the CEO. +[1218.00 --> 1225.00] Although based on some of Ubisoft CEO's statements about the whole watchdogs, Far Cry 4 nonsense. +[1225.00 --> 1226.00] Um, I don't know. +[1226.00 --> 1229.00] Does, does a CEO have more credibility than a PR? +[1229.00 --> 1231.00] I don't know. +[1231.00 --> 1234.00] Is he just glorified PR? +[1234.00 --> 1235.00] Hard to say. +[1235.00 --> 1238.00] So last year EA was voted worst company in America. +[1238.00 --> 1239.00] I think that was, wasn't that two years ago? +[1239.00 --> 1242.00] Anyway, the point is, yeah, it's happened a couple of times. +[1242.00 --> 1252.00] So CEO Andrew Wilson says the new mandate at EA is to ensure its games are functional and fun at a much earlier stage in the process than it has in the past. +[1252.00 --> 1256.00] They want to be more rigorous about ensuring quality control throughout the process. +[1256.00 --> 1261.00] And they want to be willing to delay a game's launch when it's necessary. +[1261.00 --> 1264.00] We have now said that there is no alternative. +[1264.00 --> 1269.00] If the build is not playable, you have to push the schedule until it's playable again. +[1269.00 --> 1271.00] That's great. +[1271.00 --> 1281.00] Um, another, an example of this sort of new approach is the beta for the Battlefield hard, for Battlefield hardline that went live earlier this month. +[1281.00 --> 1294.00] And they're saying that they want to do earlier betas to get real play testing done at an earlier point in the process so that when the game does actually ship, they are able to deliver a much more polished experience. +[1294.00 --> 1302.00] The whole, he says, the Hollywood blockbuster mentality of keep all the information to yourself is not something that makes sense in today's world. +[1302.00 --> 1306.00] We can't keep a secret anyway, so we may as well just start talking about it. +[1306.00 --> 1308.00] There are disadvantages to this approach. +[1308.00 --> 1314.00] You look at some of the challenges that Chris Roberts' team has had with Star Citizen, where the kimono's open. +[1314.00 --> 1319.00] They're like, yeah, baby, here's all the bugs that we're working on in pre-alpha. +[1319.00 --> 1320.00] You want to see this crap? +[1320.00 --> 1322.00] You want to see this terrible code? +[1322.00 --> 1325.00] You want to see this unoptimized garbage? +[1325.00 --> 1333.00] And, you know, that turns into uncomfortable stories where they'll give us these internal milestones. +[1333.00 --> 1336.00] Like, yeah, we really want to have it working for this date. +[1336.00 --> 1339.00] And that date comes and goes and it's gone. +[1339.00 --> 1340.00] It's not there yet. +[1340.00 --> 1343.00] But then because of that, the flack is not as bad. +[1343.00 --> 1344.00] That's right. +[1344.00 --> 1345.00] I'm honest with people. +[1345.00 --> 1357.00] I had this conversation with another YouTuber a little while ago where they made some comment about, you know, whether or not, you know, sponsorships were okay from a particular company. +[1357.00 --> 1372.00] And I basically said, look, I wear my sponsorships on my sleeve because the way that I see it, if I am upfront with my community about who's giving me money and for what and what we're saying, then there's nothing to hide. +[1372.00 --> 1382.00] If everything I tell you guys is the truth and what we're doing and everything we're doing is completely above board, it's up to the viewer to decide how they feel about that. +[1382.00 --> 1389.00] Whereas if I were to try to conceal in some way the sponsorships that we have on this show, that makes me a lot more uncomfortable. +[1389.00 --> 1394.00] Where if I didn't feel like I was doing something wrong, I shouldn't have to hide it. +[1394.00 --> 1403.00] And anyway, so that's sort of, that's my, my take for my personal business on the whole honesty is the best policy thing. +[1403.00 --> 1414.00] Because if I lied to you guys, if I said, um, ASUS doesn't have a relationship with us where they sponsor things that we do and that involves an exchange of money. +[1414.00 --> 1416.00] You guys are going to dig it up at some point. +[1416.00 --> 1419.00] Yeah, pointing at our powered by the ASUS G750JZ. +[1419.00 --> 1420.00] Which they're not even. +[1420.00 --> 1425.00] You guys are going to dig it up at some point and you're going to throw it back in my face and you're right to do that. +[1426.00 --> 1427.00] Period. +[1427.00 --> 1428.00] You're right to do that. +[1428.00 --> 1435.00] And I think the timing for this is kind of awesome because Ubisoft's trying to kind of like shove some things under the rug and ignoring other things and all that kind of stuff. +[1435.00 --> 1438.00] And EA's like, we're going to talk to you guys now. +[1438.00 --> 1439.00] Good. +[1439.00 --> 1440.00] It's the right thing to do. +[1440.00 --> 1441.00] Whether or not they actually do it. +[1441.00 --> 1443.00] I don't know. +[1443.00 --> 1444.00] Yeah. +[1444.00 --> 1445.00] I mean, there's no guarantees. +[1445.00 --> 1446.00] I mean, this is cool. +[1446.00 --> 1448.00] Um, they've added origin game time. +[1448.00 --> 1451.00] So this is another kind of new thing that they're doing. +[1451.00 --> 1452.00] I think they're, what are they offering? +[1452.00 --> 1455.00] Two full days of Titanfall for free on PC. +[1455.00 --> 1461.00] I mean, I suspect this is much of a desperation tactic to resurrect Titanfall as anything else. +[1461.00 --> 1466.00] But, at least it's the right kind of desperation tactic. +[1466.00 --> 1476.00] At least they're not, you know, trying to, like that whole fiasco with Microsoft paying game streamers to use the Xbox One, but then not allowing them to talk about it. +[1476.00 --> 1480.00] Again, it all comes down to the same thing. +[1480.00 --> 1483.00] Be honest about your marketing attempts. +[1483.00 --> 1484.00] Be upfront. +[1484.00 --> 1486.00] Hey, we need people to play Titanfall. +[1486.00 --> 1488.00] We want to sell this game. +[1488.00 --> 1489.00] Here, try it. +[1489.00 --> 1490.00] You know? +[1490.00 --> 1491.00] You know, here's the first... +[1491.00 --> 1493.00] And this, honestly, it's a good way to do it. +[1493.00 --> 1495.00] And some people have made parallels to the free weekend thing on Steam. +[1495.00 --> 1496.00] Yeah. +[1496.00 --> 1497.00] And like, that's fine. +[1497.00 --> 1498.00] I like that program. +[1498.00 --> 1499.00] EA should have taken that. +[1499.00 --> 1501.00] I hope Ubisoft does as well. +[1501.00 --> 1503.00] Copying Valve is not a bad business tactic. +[1503.00 --> 1504.00] No, it's not. +[1504.00 --> 1506.00] They're doing a lot of things correctly. +[1506.00 --> 1507.00] And actually, you play. +[1507.00 --> 1510.00] Please, God, start working on copying Valve. +[1510.00 --> 1511.00] You're bad. +[1511.00 --> 1514.00] Anyways, this is actually a really good thing. +[1514.00 --> 1518.00] If I didn't own Titanfall, I would have actually probably downloaded it and tried to play it. +[1518.00 --> 1526.00] That's one thing, too, is being a big AAA, we sell games for very expensive prices developer, having it so that you can try these things for free a lot of times is helpful. +[1526.00 --> 1531.00] One thing I see with free weekends on Steam, a lot of the time is that it's an old game. +[1531.00 --> 1532.00] Yeah. +[1532.00 --> 1535.00] And it's like 80% off plus a free weekend. +[1535.00 --> 1538.00] So you can try it and go, oh, okay, I might as well finish this campaign for $2. +[1538.00 --> 1540.00] And then you buy it. +[1540.00 --> 1543.00] This is kind of different because it's Titanfall. +[1543.00 --> 1544.00] It's a big, fairly new game. +[1544.00 --> 1546.00] It's a relatively recent game. +[1546.00 --> 1549.00] It's not a $9.99 special in, you know, the summer sale. +[1549.00 --> 1550.00] And like, it happens. +[1550.00 --> 1552.00] You get these big games and free weekends and stuff, too. +[1552.00 --> 1554.00] I'm just saying not all that often. +[1554.00 --> 1556.00] So I don't know. +[1556.00 --> 1558.00] I think it's great. +[1558.00 --> 1569.00] I mean, I think it's, I don't know that we should applaud it too much because it's not so much a step forward as it is retracing the old steps of, remember when we used to have demos for games? +[1569.00 --> 1570.00] Yeah. +[1570.00 --> 1577.00] Do you know how many times I played the Warcraft 2 demo campaign? +[1577.00 --> 1578.00] And like... +[1578.00 --> 1579.00] Didn't that come in like PC Gamer or something? +[1579.00 --> 1592.00] It was so exciting because the demo had you not be able to build knights or ogres, but you had to fight one in the final battle partway through one of the levels. +[1592.00 --> 1594.00] And you were like, oh, those are cool. +[1594.00 --> 1595.00] I want to make those. +[1595.00 --> 1597.00] Go buy the game. +[1597.00 --> 1599.00] Back when they understood demos. +[1599.00 --> 1600.00] It's cool. +[1600.00 --> 1603.00] I remember I used to try and get the original Xbox. +[1603.00 --> 1605.00] I almost just said Xbox One. +[1605.00 --> 1606.00] Yeah, the Xbox One. +[1606.00 --> 1608.00] Original Xbox magazines when I had one of those. +[1608.00 --> 1613.00] And like, you'd get the demo disc for like Mortal Kombat or the demo disc for whatever. +[1613.00 --> 1615.00] And it was like, oh, this is so cool. +[1615.00 --> 1618.00] I have one level of Mortal Kombat with like four characters. +[1618.00 --> 1619.00] Yeah. +[1619.00 --> 1620.00] Let's fight for days. +[1620.00 --> 1621.00] This is all we have. +[1621.00 --> 1622.00] Some demos were too good. +[1622.00 --> 1627.00] The Halo 1 demo allowed you to play Blood Gulp multiplayer. +[1627.00 --> 1628.00] Oh my god. +[1628.00 --> 1630.00] Which is basically the only map anyone ever needed. +[1630.00 --> 1632.00] It's like the whole game. +[1632.00 --> 1633.00] Okay. +[1633.00 --> 1635.00] That's cool. +[1635.00 --> 1638.00] When to hold something back. +[1638.00 --> 1639.00] That map. +[1639.00 --> 1640.00] Probably shouldn't have done that. +[1640.00 --> 1641.00] Although, you know, whatever. +[1641.00 --> 1643.00] If it turns into full sales. +[1643.00 --> 1644.00] Yeah, I guess there's that. +[1644.00 --> 1645.00] Yeah. +[1645.00 --> 1650.00] My dad surprised us with our Xbox and Halo, so I never needed the demo disc, luckily. +[1650.00 --> 1651.00] That was cool. +[1651.00 --> 1653.00] Your dad's kind of a badass sometimes. +[1653.00 --> 1654.00] He is. +[1654.00 --> 1655.00] Okay. +[1655.00 --> 1657.00] So should we talk about the T-Mobile test drive thing?

+[1740.00 --> 1741.00] Right. +[1741.00 --> 1742.00] Fail to return it within the week. +[1742.00 --> 1744.00] You will not be charged anything. +[1744.00 --> 1746.00] That's pretty freaking cool. +[1746.00 --> 1751.00] But the big one to me, I just signed up for a Google Play Music. +[1751.00 --> 1754.00] So the $10 a month all you can eat service. +[1754.00 --> 1755.00] Which is just, it's amazing. +[1755.00 --> 1761.00] Cause combined with the Sonos system that I just set up, um, I can just be like, I get +[1761.00 --> 1763.00] a phone and I'm like, kids music. +[1763.00 --> 1764.00] Play in the living room. +[1764.00 --> 1767.00] And my son dances and like, it's, it's the cutest thing ever. +[1767.00 --> 1768.00] That's pretty cool. +[1768.00 --> 1769.00] It's awesome. +[1769.00 --> 1776.00] Anyway, so T-Mobile is now allowing on popular streaming services like Spotify and Pandora, +[1776.00 --> 1781.00] you to stream music to your phone without that counting towards your data plan. +[1781.00 --> 1784.00] How much do I wish that T-Mobile was in Canada? +[1784.00 --> 1787.00] We say this so much, but like seriously, please. +[1787.00 --> 1788.00] Please. +[1788.00 --> 1790.00] I'm, I'm, I'm not even on contract right now. +[1790.00 --> 1794.00] I just can't pick another vendor cause they're all horrible. +[1794.00 --> 1797.00] So I'm like, you know, there's a, there's another new sponsor we have, Ting. +[1797.00 --> 1799.00] But they're not in Canada either. +[1799.00 --> 1800.00] I know, I know. +[1800.00 --> 1801.00] But they're, they're pretty cool too. +[1801.00 --> 1802.00] I know they are. +[1802.00 --> 1803.00] Yeah. +[1803.00 --> 1804.00] Everything's a la carte. +[1804.00 --> 1805.00] Yeah. +[1805.00 --> 1808.00] And anyway, you guys are going to hear about it in our upcoming Devil's Canyon video. +[1808.00 --> 1811.00] Well Nick asked me before I knew that they were coming on as sponsors, like what +[1811.00 --> 1812.00] do you think about Ting? +[1812.00 --> 1815.00] So I went on this like little mini rant about how they're like, they're, I think they're even +[1815.00 --> 1816.00] a Canadian company. +[1816.00 --> 1818.00] They're hosted over like Toronto or something. +[1818.00 --> 1820.00] Our rep is based in Toronto. +[1820.00 --> 1821.00] Yeah. +[1821.00 --> 1823.00] And then, but they're not in Canada. +[1823.00 --> 1826.00] And I like, I went through all this stuff and then he's like, Oh, well that's good. +[1826.00 --> 1828.00] Cause they're sponsoring us now. +[1828.00 --> 1830.00] And I was like, Oh, well, okay, cool. +[1830.00 --> 1831.00] I'm down with that. +[1831.00 --> 1832.00] I guess. +[1832.00 --> 1833.00] Put them on the WAN show. +[1833.00 --> 1834.00] Put them on the WAN show. +[1834.00 --> 1835.00] They're not even sponsoring the WAN show. +[1835.00 --> 1837.00] We're just giving them a spot because why not? +[1837.00 --> 1841.00] Anyway, T-Mobile's whole thing is if you try it, we think you're going to love it. +[1841.00 --> 1844.00] Um, they've also got that thing where they're incentivizing people to break their contracts +[1844.00 --> 1846.00] by helping pay for that. +[1846.00 --> 1847.00] Yeah. +[1847.00 --> 1851.00] Um, and they're proud of the fact apparently that T-Mobile customers use 69% more data than +[1851.00 --> 1855.00] Verizon customers and a hundred percent more than AT&T customers. +[1855.00 --> 1856.00] Sorry to cut you off. +[1856.00 --> 1857.00] Do you remember DevilZZ? +[1857.00 --> 1858.00] Yeah, of course. +[1858.00 --> 1859.00] He posts all the time. +[1859.00 --> 1863.00] Even on like NCX forums and stuff about PhysX. +[1863.00 --> 1864.00] Yeah. +[1864.00 --> 1865.00] He's the PhysX guy. +[1865.00 --> 1866.00] I know who he is. +[1866.00 --> 1867.00] It's his son's Peyton's birthday. +[1867.00 --> 1868.00] Okay. +[1868.00 --> 1870.00] I just wanted to, I had to. +[1870.00 --> 1873.00] Happy PhysX to your son Peyton. +[1873.00 --> 1874.00] Okay. +[1874.00 --> 1875.00] That's it. +[1875.00 --> 1876.00] Keep moving. +[1876.00 --> 1883.00] Speaking of PhysX, originally posted by Speed Rookie on the forum, the original article +[1883.00 --> 1885.00] is from Tom's Hardware. +[1885.00 --> 1894.00] The word on the street is NVIDIA's GTX 880 and 880 Ti are to be cheaper than the 780 Ti. +[1894.00 --> 1900.00] With Tom's byline or whatever the sub headline, whatever the bold thing, not all rumors should +[1900.00 --> 1902.00] be believed and this is probably a prime example. +[1902.00 --> 1907.00] And yeah, this stems from like some random forum post somewhere and it's just like... +[1907.00 --> 1914.00] And it's been making the rounds and I'm gonna back up Tom's here because whenever the rumors +[1914.00 --> 1919.00] start flying about how much will NVIDIA or AMD's new graphics card cost? +[1919.00 --> 1920.00] Will it be cheaper? +[1920.00 --> 1921.00] Oh my god, it's gonna be cheaper! +[1921.00 --> 1922.00] Will it be more? +[1922.00 --> 1924.00] Will Intel's new CPU be cheaper? +[1924.00 --> 1925.00] Will it be more? +[1925.00 --> 1927.00] The answer is no. +[1927.00 --> 1928.00] Because it's gonna be the same. +[1928.00 --> 1929.00] It's always the same. +[1929.00 --> 1930.00] Every time. +[1930.00 --> 1934.00] The one exception was GTX 680. +[1934.00 --> 1936.00] I'll go down my second edition. +[1936.00 --> 1940.00] GTX 680, they blindsided us a little bit in a couple of ways. +[1940.00 --> 1944.00] Number one was that we got a 256-bit chip and they called it a high-end GPU. +[1944.00 --> 1950.00] Number two was that it was $100 cheaper than an 80 class GPU tends to be. +[1950.00 --> 1952.00] So, we want... +[1952.00 --> 1953.00] ...ish. +[1953.00 --> 1963.00] The rumors are that the 880 and 880 Ti will be cheaper to manufacture than their predecessors. +[1963.00 --> 1964.00] We're all making them. +[1964.00 --> 1969.00] This much could be true, especially if the rumor that they'll have a 256-bit memory interface +[1969.00 --> 1970.00] are true. +[1970.00 --> 1973.00] Although, at the same time, it might be cheaper to manufacture, but that doesn't necessarily +[1973.00 --> 1975.00] mean that the price is gonna come down. +[1975.00 --> 1976.00] As they say here! +[1976.00 --> 1977.00] Okay, yeah. +[1977.00 --> 1986.00] So, what I'm expecting is that these cards might be an improvement in performance and +[1986.00 --> 1987.00] design. +[1987.00 --> 1990.00] So, of course, they're expected to be based on the Maxwell architecture. +[1990.00 --> 1996.00] So, what I would expect, based on what we saw with our first Maxwell GPUs, so the 750 Ti, +[1996.00 --> 2000.00] is that we're gonna see dramatic improvements in power consumption. +[2000.00 --> 2003.00] We're gonna see potentially great overclockability. +[2003.00 --> 2006.00] We're gonna see better IPC. +[2006.00 --> 2012.00] So, we might get similar performance to the last generation flagships, but at a lower cost, +[2012.00 --> 2015.00] with a narrower memory interface, and better costs. +[2015.00 --> 2019.00] And if miners were still having a crazy heyday, they might be really interested, because the +[2019.00 --> 2021.00] 750 Ti was a very interesting mining card. +[2021.00 --> 2022.00] Yeah, it was. +[2022.00 --> 2024.00] But, that's kind of... +[2024.00 --> 2025.00] Mining's kinda... +[2025.00 --> 2028.00] Yeah, you can pick up 290s for like, what, 250 bucks on eBay now?

+[2245.00 --> 2246.00] Yeah. +[2246.00 --> 2247.00] It's going great so far. +[2247.00 --> 2248.00] Okay. +[2248.00 --> 2249.00] That's all I really have for you. +[2249.00 --> 2250.00] I haven't done a ton on it. +[2250.00 --> 2253.00] But everything that I've done is awesome. +[2253.00 --> 2258.00] I hope I can, I haven't tried to get down to like bare code yet, but I'm hoping I can at some point. +[2258.00 --> 2260.00] Because there's a few things I want to edit that are a little bit more specific. +[2260.00 --> 2264.00] So, we get a lot of feedback from our viewers that, hey Linus, thanks for the Squarespace thing. +[2264.00 --> 2265.00] It's absolutely fantastic. +[2265.00 --> 2274.00] But what I want you guys to do is I want you to use hashtag LinusSquarespace and I want you to actually tweet your own Squarespace sites. +[2274.00 --> 2282.00] Now, there's more to this than just tweet your Squarespace site at me and we're going to show it on the show here because we are going to do that. +[2282.00 --> 2295.00] The real trick is actually that someone who tweets that hashtag to us anytime in the next couple of weeks, so we're going to run this again next week, is going to win their Squarespace site for a year. +[2295.00 --> 2296.00] Whoa! +[2296.00 --> 2297.00] Yay! +[2297.00 --> 2300.00] That time you were pretending because I know you knew about this. +[2300.00 --> 2301.00] No, I didn't. +[2301.00 --> 2302.00] Really? +[2302.00 --> 2304.00] No one tells me anything. +[2304.00 --> 2306.00] I had no idea. +[2306.00 --> 2317.00] So you can win your website to be completely hosted by Squarespace for a full year and anyone who creates a trial website, and that's free, can qualify as well. +[2317.00 --> 2323.00] So guys, go ahead, start creating your Squarespace sites and we are going to pick one lucky winner. +[2323.00 --> 2330.00] We're just going to do a random draw between everyone who submits their websites and we will give you your website for a year. +[2330.00 --> 2331.00] Well, Squarespace will give it to you. +[2331.00 --> 2335.00] We'll just act as the conduit for them giving it to you. +[2335.00 --> 2336.00] What did I say? +[2336.00 --> 2338.00] Hashtag LinusSquarespace. +[2338.00 --> 2341.00] So you guys want to go ahead and do that. +[2341.00 --> 2344.00] And in the meantime, I'd love for- hey, look at this! +[2344.00 --> 2346.00] There's already websites. +[2346.00 --> 2351.00] I created a free website with Squarespace, so we've got- oh, no, I don't think we have any new ones. +[2351.00 --> 2357.00] So in the meantime, we're going to move on to our Ask the Expert livestream, which is- really? +[2357.00 --> 2358.00] No! +[2358.00 --> 2359.00] E3 was last time. +[2359.00 --> 2360.00] Okay, well, whatever. +[2360.00 --> 2362.00] Ask the Expert livestream! +[2362.00 --> 2363.00] It's coming next week. +[2363.00 --> 2367.00] We are going to have one of the- let me see, actually. +[2367.00 --> 2368.00] I can't quite- you know what? +[2368.00 --> 2372.00] I'm just going to bring up the forum thread, because I think that'll work better here. +[2372.00 --> 2374.00] This is going to be pretty cool. +[2374.00 --> 2381.00] We did this a little while ago with one of their- one of their technical engineer guys on the SSD side, when they launched the 730. +[2381.00 --> 2385.00] And I don't know if you guys tuned into that livestream, but it was really, really good. +[2385.00 --> 2398.00] We got a ton of insight into things like- like this guy worked with the team that launched the original Extreme Edition, and he was talking about that, and just- all these behind the scenes, like crazy cool things that go on. +[2398.00 --> 2402.00] So this time, we have a product marketing engineer on the CPU side of things. +[2402.00 --> 2405.00] So you're going to want to go ahead and- there we go. +[2405.00 --> 2406.00] Check out this thread. +[2406.00 --> 2408.00] It's called, Talk to the Product Marketing Engineer. +[2408.00 --> 2412.00] I think I had asked Nick to call it- ask the expert, but whatever. +[2412.00 --> 2414.00] Live chat and giveaway. +[2414.00 --> 2415.00] You're going to want to tune in. +[2415.00 --> 2425.00] We're going to be talking about behind the scenes, how Intel's Devil's Canyon CPUs came to be, and we are going to be giving away two Devil's Canyon CPUs. +[2425.00 --> 2428.00] So that's going to be pretty freaking sweet. +[2428.00 --> 2430.00] So head over to linustechtips.com. +[2430.00 --> 2433.00] You know what, I'll go ahead- actually if someone- no, I'll do it. +[2433.00 --> 2434.00] I'll post this in the Twitch chat. +[2434.00 --> 2439.00] I can never trust other people's links in the Twitch chat because people do bad things in the Twitch chat. +[2440.00 --> 2444.00] I love you people, but you do bad things, and there is no point denying it. +[2445.00 --> 2446.00] No. +[2446.00 --> 2448.00] No, there really isn't. +[2448.00 --> 2449.00] All right. +[2449.00 --> 2450.00] Hey, look at this! +[2450.00 --> 2451.00] We have- +[2451.00 --> 2454.00] The Twitch chat is like that friend you have in high school that you don't want to tell your parents about. +[2454.00 --> 2458.00] Because they'd be like, stop hanging out with bad people, but you love them because they're awesome. +[2458.00 --> 2459.00] But they do do those bad things. +[2459.00 --> 2460.00] Look at that! +[2460.00 --> 2464.00] We have at least one Squarespace site to show you guys. +[2464.00 --> 2471.00] So this kind of shows you how you can use their templates to create something that's attractive looking without spending a whole ton of time on it. +[2471.00 --> 2476.00] So here they're using it as a showcase for their videos, but you can do a blog, you can make a store. +[2476.00 --> 2477.00] What are you even doing? +[2477.00 --> 2479.00] Or is that too early to review it? +[2479.00 --> 2482.00] Honestly, I just wanted to grab the URL LukeLeFernie.com. +[2482.00 --> 2483.00] Oh, okay. +[2483.00 --> 2487.00] So I'm just going to put it somewhere so it doesn't look like I'm just camping it. +[2487.00 --> 2489.00] And so I'm just going to make my own random thing. +[2489.00 --> 2492.00] Is it going to be grad pictures of you? +[2492.00 --> 2495.00] Because I heard a rumor that those are floating around. +[2495.00 --> 2498.00] No, it won't be grad pictures of me. +[2498.00 --> 2501.00] Did I tell you about that? +[2501.00 --> 2502.00] I must have told you. +[2502.00 --> 2504.00] Now people are going to look. +[2504.00 --> 2506.00] Why did you do this? +[2506.00 --> 2507.00] You're a jerk! +[2507.00 --> 2514.00] And that was ever not a known quantity to you because... +[2514.00 --> 2516.00] This is because I teabagged Yoshi, wasn't it? +[2516.00 --> 2518.00] Alright, let's move on to... +[2518.00 --> 2521.00] And yes, by the way. +[2521.00 --> 2526.00] Let's move on to the big Linus Tech Tips related news. +[2526.00 --> 2532.00] So we're not even going to share the screen with this news because it is way too badass. +[2532.00 --> 2537.00] Welcome to the new LinusTechTips.com. +[2537.00 --> 2539.00] Do you want to walk them through this? +[2539.00 --> 2542.00] I need a browser that works for a second. +[2542.00 --> 2543.00] Are you in Firefox? +[2543.00 --> 2545.00] I don't know what happened to this computer. +[2545.00 --> 2546.00] Because that was like... +[2546.00 --> 2547.00] But look. +[2547.00 --> 2548.00] ...pretty broken. +[2548.00 --> 2549.00] Oh, okay. +[2549.00 --> 2550.00] Oh, is it a Zoom thing? +[2550.00 --> 2551.00] No, there's an ad takeover. +[2551.00 --> 2552.00] Oh. +[2552.00 --> 2553.00] It was on Twitter and stuff. +[2553.00 --> 2555.00] I was wondering if Twitter started pushing ads to people. +[2555.00 --> 2556.00] Oh, brilliant. +[2556.00 --> 2557.00] Apparently... +[2557.00 --> 2558.00] Okay, well whatever. +[2558.00 --> 2559.00] Look on my screen. +[2559.00 --> 2560.00] Just walk over here. +[2560.00 --> 2561.00] Okay, so there's... +[2561.00 --> 2563.00] Not all functionality is already in here yet. +[2563.00 --> 2564.00] Yeah, it says beta. +[2564.00 --> 2565.00] Yeah. +[2565.00 --> 2566.00] Just throwing that out there. +[2566.00 --> 2568.00] So I'm going to go through how things are kind of supposed to work. +[2568.00 --> 2574.00] So this main big slider where you guys see GPU miners crash for 2014 and other things constantly rotates. +[2574.00 --> 2577.00] You can pause it though and you can manually select next or whatever. +[2577.00 --> 2581.00] If you click in the black space, that also goes next. +[2581.00 --> 2585.00] But if you click read more or click on the image, that will bring you to the article. +[2585.00 --> 2591.00] There's some like teaser text that will go under the title so you can see a little bit about what the article is about. +[2591.00 --> 2595.00] That I've just filled in a couple of them right now because I just wanted to get the site live. +[2595.00 --> 2596.00] Um... +[2596.00 --> 2598.00] So basically if you click on things... +[2598.00 --> 2599.00] Oops. +[2599.00 --> 2601.00] There's a bit of a bug where it kind of... +[2601.00 --> 2603.00] Apparently does that. +[2603.00 --> 2604.00] Let's click read more. +[2604.00 --> 2606.00] Oh god. +[2606.00 --> 2607.00] Oh god. +[2607.00 --> 2608.00] Oh god. +[2608.00 --> 2610.00] Okay, well this was working not that long ago. +[2610.00 --> 2612.00] This was working like literally before the show started. +[2612.00 --> 2613.00] Well whatever. +[2613.00 --> 2614.00] It's supposed to go to the article. +[2614.00 --> 2615.00] Why don't we uh... +[2615.00 --> 2617.00] Why don't we click on one of these to get to an article? +[2617.00 --> 2620.00] I think it's because so many people are hitting it. +[2620.00 --> 2621.00] Ohhhh. +[2621.00 --> 2624.00] So it's going next because that's loading on your computer. +[2624.00 --> 2628.00] It's not going to be an article because it's lagging so hard. +[2628.00 --> 2630.00] That actually makes sense. +[2630.00 --> 2631.00] Right. +[2631.00 --> 2632.00] See, there we go. +[2632.00 --> 2635.00] Okay, so the article page has also been revamped. +[2635.00 --> 2637.00] The cool thing about this guys is... +[2637.00 --> 2638.00] Check this out. +[2638.00 --> 2642.00] So here is where the person who posted it. +[2642.00 --> 2644.00] In this case it was Rafi. +[2644.00 --> 2645.00] Rafi, whatever. +[2645.00 --> 2646.00] Here's where their post goes. +[2646.00 --> 2648.00] Here's where the original source goes. +[2648.00 --> 2650.00] And here is where quotes go. +[2650.00 --> 2655.00] It's just a stylistic change to what is actually a forum thread. +[2655.00 --> 2660.00] So the discussion that goes under it can be commented on on the front page or the forum +[2660.00 --> 2662.00] and it all comes together in one thing. +[2662.00 --> 2668.00] This is essentially just a more stylistic version of browsing the forum where we can feature different topics. +[2668.00 --> 2672.00] So like right now it's mostly all stuff from tech news and reviews, +[2672.00 --> 2677.00] but there's also stuff from hot deals because we're showing the Steam Summer Sale thing. +[2677.00 --> 2678.00] That was posted in Hot Deals. +[2678.00 --> 2685.00] So anything that's like a really big deal, very topical thing could potentially be pushed to the front page. +[2685.00 --> 2689.00] And you can see over here there's more places to see other headlines. +[2689.00 --> 2694.00] We've left some space below the fold where we can put some ad placements potentially. +[2694.00 --> 2703.00] But in general, I mean, we're going to be sticking to the LinusTechTips.com strategy of not inundating people who visit with ads, no matter who they are. +[2703.00 --> 2707.00] So it's great if people choose to become contributors so they don't see any ads at all. +[2707.00 --> 2714.00] But in general, we don't want to... A lot of websites actually design their website around optimal ad placements. +[2714.00 --> 2717.00] We designed our website and then we're like, wait, where can we put these? +[2717.00 --> 2721.00] We'll figure it out. +[2721.00 --> 2725.00] So this slider down here works by clicking side to side. +[2725.00 --> 2726.00] Yeah. +[2726.00 --> 2732.00] And the idea is that the big main slider will eventually be the newest four topics. +[2732.00 --> 2736.00] And then the lower slider will be the eight topics after that and there won't be any overlap. +[2736.00 --> 2738.00] Right now it's all overlapping and there's eight total. +[2738.00 --> 2740.00] And then of course we've got featured videos. +[2740.00 --> 2746.00] So we're going to have the latest LinusTechTips video as well as the latest Fastest Possible video so people can check those out. +[2746.00 --> 2750.00] We'd be kind of stupid if we didn't try to feature our videos on our website. +[2750.00 --> 2759.00] And then this feature is one that Luke told me was impossible, but then it turned out that if I hit him hard enough, it actually can work really well. +[2759.00 --> 2762.00] It's like this cascading layer of hitting. +[2762.00 --> 2769.00] It's like you hit me and then I flop forward and just go, blah, and hit Catman and then things happen. +[2769.00 --> 2770.00] Yay! +[2770.00 --> 2777.00] So basically Trending Topics is a great place to check out whatever is a hot discussion on the forum right now. +[2777.00 --> 2780.00] So we've got AMD teasing something. +[2780.00 --> 2782.00] We've got a troubleshooting thing. +[2782.00 --> 2785.00] We've got Ubisoft talking about the whole hidden graphics thing. +[2785.00 --> 2786.00] We have the summer sale. +[2786.00 --> 2791.00] And we've got just a discussion about what would you guys like to become standard in PC hardware. +[2791.00 --> 2803.00] So the algorithm behind this is surprisingly simple, but I think it does a great job of bringing some really cool feature topics up to the front. +[2803.00 --> 2804.00] I thought you were just going to. +[2804.00 --> 2805.00] Okay, we're good. +[2805.00 --> 2807.00] Then there's featured builds at the bottom. +[2807.00 --> 2810.00] I know we've been somewhat semi-ignoring build logs of the thing for a little while. +[2810.00 --> 2813.00] So we're putting it on the front page of LinusTechTips.com. +[2813.00 --> 2816.00] Yeah, and then we are doing the monthly thing. +[2816.00 --> 2817.00] Yeah. +[2817.00 --> 2818.00] Stay tuned for that. +[2818.00 --> 2821.00] Yeah, it's going to be next week. +[2821.00 --> 2826.00] I know it's like super crazy late, but we're still going to make it this month and then we'll be good to go in the future. +[2826.00 --> 2827.00] Where did the comic go? +[2827.00 --> 2828.00] It's gone right now because it doesn't work. +[2828.00 --> 2829.00] Okay, I'll explain it. +[2829.00 --> 2833.00] Okay, so basically guys over here, you just go to the latest news. +[2833.00 --> 2836.00] Our shows is a drop down that has these broken graphics. +[2836.00 --> 2837.00] Yeah. +[2837.00 --> 2839.00] We're going to add Channel Super Fun. +[2839.00 --> 2843.00] We're going to fix those icons, all that kind of stuff. +[2843.00 --> 2845.00] Hopefully the page will load. +[2845.00 --> 2850.00] This is the main articles page where you can just view whatever were the most recent articles. +[2850.00 --> 2853.00] There's also another view here for trending topics. +[2853.00 --> 2861.00] We're going to add another thing that's maybe a further decay of the most recent topics, but that is text so that it can be a little bit more dense. +[2861.00 --> 2866.00] And then this community link takes you to the forum, and we are going to add a little cog right here. +[2866.00 --> 2872.00] That will change your default to whichever you prefer. +[2872.00 --> 2876.00] LinusTechTips.com homepage or the forum main page. +[2876.00 --> 2882.00] So if you are one of the forum guys and don't want to see this ever and don't care about it, you don't have to. +[2882.00 --> 2883.00] Yeah. +[2883.00 --> 2884.00] We're all about choice. +[2884.00 --> 2885.00] We think it's great. +[2885.00 --> 2890.00] We think it's a really cool way to interact with what's going on on the forum. +[2890.00 --> 2892.00] But if you totally disagree... +[2892.00 --> 2893.00] That's cool, man. +[2893.00 --> 2895.00] Don't worry about it. +[2895.00 --> 2896.00] Yeah. +[2896.00 --> 2899.00] So that cogwheel will be changeable somewhere else on the forum as well. +[2899.00 --> 2902.00] So if you do it once, it's not like you can never go back. +[2902.00 --> 2903.00] We're going to work on a few things. +[2903.00 --> 2907.00] Like we've had some comments about navigating between the two can be a little bit confusing. +[2907.00 --> 2908.00] Yeah. +[2908.00 --> 2909.00] So we're going to work on a few things like that. +[2909.00 --> 2911.00] Like it's definitely beta. +[2911.00 --> 2913.00] There's definitely still a bunch of things to do. +[2913.00 --> 2918.00] But I'm going to try and keep the articles at least pretty recent for now while we're still working on things. +[2918.00 --> 2919.00] So it's usable. +[2919.00 --> 2924.00] And then once we go fully live, the articles should be rolling because that's going to be the main thing. +[2924.00 --> 2931.00] And at some point we're going to be working with the community to have the articles actually be whatever the community picks. +[2931.00 --> 2932.00] So we're going to take some... +[2932.00 --> 2933.00] Yeah. +[2933.00 --> 2943.00] Whether they're appointed or however it works, we're going to take some of our top contributors and have them start being able to basically push their articles to the front page. +[2943.00 --> 2948.00] Yeah, I have a few people that I kind of think will already be on top of that. +[2948.00 --> 2951.00] But we'll see once that actually starts becoming a thing. +[2951.00 --> 2953.00] So very much by the community for the community. +[2953.00 --> 2955.00] We think it's really cool. +[2955.00 --> 2956.00] We hope that you guys do too. +[2956.00 --> 2958.00] And there you go. +[2958.00 --> 2959.00] That's what we've been... +[2959.00 --> 2963.00] This has been in the works for like eight months. +[2963.00 --> 2964.00] Really long time. +[2964.00 --> 2965.00] Really long time. +[2965.00 --> 2967.00] It's seen a lot of iterations. +[2967.00 --> 2975.00] Yeah, the original design got completely, like completely redone. +[2975.00 --> 2986.00] And I think this is a good opportunity to give a huge shout out to Catman on the forum for the hours of work that he did to help us build this front page. +[2986.00 --> 2988.00] Just all the thumbs up. +[2988.00 --> 2990.00] Like if I had more thumbs. +[2990.00 --> 2991.00] Yay. +[2991.00 --> 2996.00] These are my hiking boots that I'm breaking in for our hike. +[2996.00 --> 2997.00] Anyway. +[2997.00 --> 2999.00] So what's our next topic? +[2999.00 --> 3000.00] I don't even know. +[3000.00 --> 3001.00] Do we have more topics? +[3001.00 --> 3003.00] What do we even cover on this show? +[3003.00 --> 3005.00] I don't know. +[3005.00 --> 3006.00] We have more topics. +[3006.00 --> 3008.00] So we have tons of stuff in rapid fire. +[3008.00 --> 3009.00] Steam sale. +[3009.00 --> 3011.00] And we can also talk about all of these things. +[3011.00 --> 3013.00] Yeah, let's talk about the steam sale. +[3013.00 --> 3014.00] So... +[3014.00 --> 3015.00] Have you bought anything? +[3015.00 --> 3016.00] No. +[3016.00 --> 3019.00] I think they're running into a real challenge here. +[3019.00 --> 3020.00] You and I were talking about this before. +[3020.00 --> 3024.00] So why don't you try to work your way through the topic in a coherent manner? +[3024.00 --> 3028.00] So steam sales have been going on for a really long time and they... +[3028.00 --> 3031.00] I don't think they were coming as fast as they used to. +[3031.00 --> 3033.00] Yeah, summer sale was like... +[3033.00 --> 3034.00] The big thing. +[3034.00 --> 3035.00] In the summer. +[3035.00 --> 3042.00] And then now there's like summer sale and winter sale and Friday sale and like every sale you could ever possibly imagine. +[3042.00 --> 3049.00] So now we get to this summer sale and everybody's freaking out and posting gifs that are very old about the summer sale. +[3049.00 --> 3052.00] Which I found kind of applicable to my point. +[3052.00 --> 3053.00] That it's... +[3053.00 --> 3055.00] It's a lot of the same stuff is on sale. +[3055.00 --> 3058.00] And actually for a lot of the same sales. +[3058.00 --> 3060.00] So a lot of things that I'm seeing go up. +[3060.00 --> 3063.00] Like there might be one or two that are fairly interesting. +[3063.00 --> 3066.00] But then a lot of them are just like, yeah, this is... +[3066.00 --> 3067.00] This has already happened. +[3067.00 --> 3070.00] I already have this game because I bought it at this price a year ago. +[3070.00 --> 3077.00] So I'll take a little bit of my product management experience and sort of talk about this. +[3077.00 --> 3082.00] One of the biggest challenges is retaining customer excitement. +[3082.00 --> 3085.00] So I worked at NCIX for five years. +[3085.00 --> 3089.00] I was a product manager or category manager for about three and a half, four of it. +[3089.00 --> 3098.00] And NCIX's sale promotional cycle is every Wednesday night a new weekly sale launches. +[3098.00 --> 3105.00] And the weekly sale can have CPUs or video cards or fans or whatever else. +[3105.00 --> 3112.00] And the idea is that at least some of those items need to be crazy and enticing. +[3112.00 --> 3117.00] Because otherwise you don't generate that excitement and that buzz and that hype. +[3117.00 --> 3121.00] That truthfully, even online, even compared to... +[3121.00 --> 3123.00] Because in retail you talk about a loss leader. +[3123.00 --> 3126.00] Where the idea is to get the person into the door and sell them something else. +[3126.00 --> 3131.00] Even online, getting someone onto the website is a huge part of the battle. +[3131.00 --> 3135.00] And then if they buy that CPU that you're discounting below cost, +[3135.00 --> 3138.00] they might also buy a motherboard and they might also buy a video card. +[3138.00 --> 3143.00] And I mean in the IT industry the margins are so slim that that doesn't necessarily help that much. +[3143.00 --> 3147.00] But the point is that loss leading works and creating excitement +[3147.00 --> 3149.00] helps to build the relationship with the customer +[3149.00 --> 3151.00] because they get excited about what you're doing. +[3151.00 --> 3153.00] You look at how well Valve does that. +[3153.00 --> 3158.00] They create this excitement and this basically worship of their sale. +[3158.00 --> 3163.00] And what happens is that eventually you run into a couple of roadblocks. +[3163.00 --> 3166.00] Number one is that you can only drop prices so low +[3166.00 --> 3170.00] before it starts to erode the margin and devalue the product +[3170.00 --> 3173.00] to the point where customers aren't willing to pay more for it anymore. +[3173.00 --> 3175.00] And then you can't support your business. +[3175.00 --> 3176.00] That's starting to happen. +[3176.00 --> 3178.00] And that is starting to happen. +[3178.00 --> 3184.00] Number two is you run out of new interesting things to erode the margin on. +[3184.00 --> 3190.00] And as long as there are indie devs spitting out games every week or two, +[3190.00 --> 3194.00] that's going to be less of an issue for PC gaming than it became for IT +[3194.00 --> 3196.00] in the later days of me managing that product. +[3196.00 --> 3200.00] Because what happened was all of a sudden NVIDIA and AMD +[3200.00 --> 3203.00] slowed down from new graphics cards every six to nine months +[3203.00 --> 3205.00] to now we're looking at 12 to 15 to 18. +[3205.00 --> 3211.00] And you can only discount the GTX 770 to $299.99 so many times +[3211.00 --> 3213.00] before it stops becoming exciting. +[3213.00 --> 3216.00] Before that starts to become the price that people buy it at. +[3216.00 --> 3217.00] Yes. +[3217.00 --> 3219.00] You need new products to discount. +[3219.00 --> 3220.00] Okay? +[3220.00 --> 3222.00] So that's problem number two. +[3222.00 --> 3225.00] And then problem number three is that... +[3225.00 --> 3227.00] I guess that's pretty much it. +[3227.00 --> 3230.00] So we look at this and to reinforce your point... +[3230.00 --> 3231.00] Right. Sorry. +[3231.00 --> 3236.00] Problem number three is because of the weekly sale approach at NCIX, +[3236.00 --> 3240.00] we ran into this issue where from week to week the complaint was, +[3240.00 --> 3242.00] oh, it's always the same things on sale. +[3242.00 --> 3245.00] And we'd kind of go, well, shit, man. +[3245.00 --> 3247.00] What do you want us to do? +[3247.00 --> 3249.00] There's no new graphics card. +[3249.00 --> 3251.00] It's kind of like when people complain about Linus Tech Tips +[3251.00 --> 3253.00] not having a bunch of motherboard videos. +[3253.00 --> 3254.00] And I go, shit, man. +[3254.00 --> 3257.00] A motherboard hasn't been released in six months. +[3257.00 --> 3258.00] What do you want me to say? +[3258.00 --> 3260.00] I'm going to go cover old motherboards? +[3260.00 --> 3261.00] Yeah, that'll work. +[3261.00 --> 3263.00] My biggest thing for NCIX would be like, +[3263.00 --> 3265.00] it would be some themed sale. +[3265.00 --> 3268.00] And then I'd be like, there's nothing following this theme. +[3268.00 --> 3269.00] But the problem with... +[3269.00 --> 3270.00] I get it. +[3270.00 --> 3271.00] Okay. +[3271.00 --> 3274.00] So Valve is running into that frequency increasing, +[3274.00 --> 3277.00] margin eroding, and not enough new products issue. +[3277.00 --> 3281.00] But the problem is that you can never backpedal. +[3281.00 --> 3285.00] I couldn't count the number of times that the product management team +[3285.00 --> 3289.00] would get together and devise a new business strategy +[3289.00 --> 3291.00] that wasn't a weekly sale. +[3291.00 --> 3292.00] And we'd kind of go, okay, let's do this. +[3292.00 --> 3293.00] Let's do that. +[3293.00 --> 3294.00] We'll do... +[3294.00 --> 3296.00] Because you know what's funny is customers ask for it all the time. +[3296.00 --> 3299.00] We want everyday low pricing. +[3299.00 --> 3300.00] And when you do that, +[3300.00 --> 3302.00] when you actually take an entire product line, +[3302.00 --> 3304.00] look, we experimented with it. +[3304.00 --> 3305.00] I did it. +[3305.00 --> 3307.00] I would take an entire product line, +[3307.00 --> 3310.00] and I would discount it to the target margin of a weekly sale item, +[3310.00 --> 3313.00] and I would just put it up on the website. +[3313.00 --> 3315.00] Sales go like this. +[3315.00 --> 3317.00] It's not exciting. +[3317.00 --> 3319.00] You have to discount, +[3319.00 --> 3324.00] and you can't stop discounting once you've started doing it, +[3324.00 --> 3326.00] so you end up in this trap. +[3326.00 --> 3331.00] And that is what I guess we were trying to say we feel like is happening with the Steam sales. +[3331.00 --> 3334.00] They still have those pull items, though, that you're talking about. +[3334.00 --> 3335.00] Like Witcher 2. +[3335.00 --> 3336.00] Yeah. +[3336.00 --> 3338.00] The enhanced edition for $4, 80% off. +[3338.00 --> 3339.00] That was a huge... +[3339.00 --> 3341.00] Like, I saw people talking about that everywhere. +[3341.00 --> 3343.00] But then there's also a lot of games on here that are just like, +[3343.00 --> 3344.00] yeah, man. +[3344.00 --> 3348.00] I've seen it that price like a whole bunch of times. +[3348.00 --> 3352.00] So I guess what I'm trying to say is, as a product manager, I'm telling you guys, +[3352.00 --> 3355.00] you've got to be realistic in terms of your expectations. +[3355.00 --> 3358.00] Valve won't be able to keep it up forever. +[3358.00 --> 3365.00] I think they will, but it's just not going to be like the summer sale from like three years ago. +[3365.00 --> 3366.00] Yes. +[3366.00 --> 3367.00] It's not going to be like it was. +[3367.00 --> 3368.00] It's not going to be... +[3368.00 --> 3371.00] And people will yearn for the old days, and what they have to understand is that there's +[3371.00 --> 3373.00] no going back to the old days. +[3373.00 --> 3378.00] There's no going back to the days of Intel and AMD leapfrogging each other every few months +[3378.00 --> 3381.00] with newer, higher performing, more exciting CPUs. +[3381.00 --> 3385.00] That's never coming again until maybe, I don't know, quantum computing or something. +[3385.00 --> 3387.00] Like, it's gone for now. +[3387.00 --> 3388.00] Thank you, MK. +[3388.00 --> 3389.00] It's been freaking cool. +[3389.00 --> 3391.00] It's the same thing with cell phones, you know? +[3391.00 --> 3398.00] We're on year-long scheduled release cycles with the big guys, with iterative improvements +[3398.00 --> 3401.00] that really aren't bringing a whole lot new to the table. +[3401.00 --> 3403.00] Be prepared to be less excited. +[3403.00 --> 3408.00] I think a lot of journalists who were disappointed with the Galaxy S5 had unrealistic expectations. +[3408.00 --> 3411.00] Honestly, I thought the Galaxy S5 was just fine. +[3411.00 --> 3415.00] It didn't blow me away, but then neither did the S4 because I guess I just don't care that much. +[3415.00 --> 3417.00] But they did some things that I thought were pretty great. +[3417.00 --> 3420.00] I thought the fact that they still have a plastic shell, but the flex is much less, was really good. +[3420.00 --> 3425.00] I just, I had a different set of expectations for the S5. +[3425.00 --> 3426.00] Yeah. +[3426.00 --> 3430.00] Speaking of discounting and having room to bring prices down, +[3430.00 --> 3432.00] Apple now has a cheaper iMac. +[3432.00 --> 3435.00] I think this is interesting for a number of reasons. +[3435.00 --> 3440.00] I think it's amazing that Apple gets away with introducing new desktop computers +[3440.00 --> 3449.00] that have 1.4 GHz mobile dual-core chips in them and 500 gig, like, mechanical hard drives for $1,100. +[3450.00 --> 3453.00] I think that's amazing and they're basically geniuses. +[3453.00 --> 3458.00] But this is the thing you were just talking about. They can't go back now. +[3458.00 --> 3459.00] Yeah. +[3459.00 --> 3461.00] They can no longer have a not super cheap iMac. +[3461.00 --> 3463.00] But at least they've left themselves room to upgrade it. +[3463.00 --> 3468.00] They can add a quad-core, they can go SSD, and they can put in discrete graphics. +[3468.00 --> 3473.00] So that takes care of the next three generations of incremental improvements to the 21.5-inch low-end iMac. +[3473.00 --> 3477.00] One thing that is surprising to me is it looks identical. +[3477.00 --> 3478.00] Yeah. +[3478.00 --> 3481.00] So you can still get the, like, ugh, I have an iMac. +[3481.00 --> 3483.00] So you can still have, I mean... +[3483.00 --> 3484.00] I'm trendy. +[3484.00 --> 3490.00] Our viewer base and our forum community tends to kind of hate on Apple a fair bit. +[3490.00 --> 3495.00] But let's be honest, guys. Industrial design costs money. +[3495.00 --> 3501.00] The same people who are drooling over how beautiful the 1M8 is and talking about how great it is +[3501.00 --> 3505.00] and it's, you know, fantastic that an Android phone has such great design +[3505.00 --> 3508.00] are the same people who are going to call an iPhone worthless. +[3508.00 --> 3512.00] When that stuff costs money. +[3512.00 --> 3518.00] Having good build quality and good industrial design costs money. +[3518.00 --> 3519.00] And Apple does some things right. +[3519.00 --> 3521.00] They put great screens on their machines. +[3521.00 --> 3523.00] Am I going to buy one? No. +[3523.00 --> 3528.00] Because I know where to buy a good screen that doesn't come attached to an Apple computer. +[3528.00 --> 3531.00] But for a mainstream user, it's not a terrible choice. +[3531.00 --> 3536.00] And it's nice to see them delivering something that I think fits really nicely into a niche. +[3536.00 --> 3542.00] I think someone like my dad would be just as, this would be just as suitable for him. +[3542.00 --> 3543.00] Plus an SSD. +[3543.00 --> 3545.00] Because I think everyone needs an SSD. +[3545.00 --> 3549.00] Someone like my dad could use this computer and it would be just as adequate for his needs +[3549.00 --> 3551.00] as a $3,000 gaming rig. +[3551.00 --> 3555.00] With the other argument being that you could also build a $500 PC that would work for it as well. +[3555.00 --> 3556.00] So there's that. +[3556.00 --> 3557.00] Different strokes for different folks. +[3557.00 --> 3559.00] Speaking of strokes, hard drives. +[3559.00 --> 3560.00] You can short stroke them. +[3560.00 --> 3564.00] And we didn't short stroke it, but we did take a hard drive and test it against an SSD. +[3564.00 --> 3565.00] Oh. +[3565.00 --> 3568.00] I was like, what is this segway? +[3568.00 --> 3569.00] The worst segway ever. +[3569.00 --> 3570.00] It worked though. +[3570.00 --> 3571.00] We got there. +[3571.00 --> 3572.00] We got there. +[3572.00 --> 3573.00] We did make it. +[3573.00 --> 3574.00] It's all about getting there. +[3574.00 --> 3575.00] That's what she said. +[3575.00 --> 3576.00] Anyway. +[3576.00 --> 3581.00] It's like, unlike every other SSD versus hard drive test that I've ever seen. +[3581.00 --> 3593.00] Where they take a completely sterile, brand new OS, put the latest drivers, update all the Windows updates, put on their benchmarking applications, and then test an SSD versus a hard drive. +[3593.00 --> 3599.00] And you'll see metrics like, oh, the SSD took 11 seconds to boot, and the hard drive took 16 seconds. +[3599.00 --> 3607.00] And the people who don't get it, the people who don't understand the value of an SSD, look at that and go, yeah, it's okay. +[3607.00 --> 3608.00] I can wait five seconds. +[3608.00 --> 3609.00] I like that. +[3609.00 --> 3613.00] I like the spread out lean back. +[3613.00 --> 3625.00] I even saw some comments on our A-Data SSD upgrade zombie video, where people are like, yeah, SSDs are so stupid because hard drives have 130 megabytes per second and SSDs are only this much. +[3625.00 --> 3628.00] And it doesn't work that way, okay? +[3628.00 --> 3631.00] So, but the problem seems to be in the way that we benchmark them. +[3631.00 --> 3639.00] So, we decided to take a real world, like, broken OS hard drive. +[3639.00 --> 3647.00] Like, one that's had its operating system running on it for five years, got all kinds of crap running in the background, is full, has like a bunch of... +[3647.00 --> 3648.00] Was full. +[3648.00 --> 3650.00] Was full, I guess not full anymore. +[3650.00 --> 3653.00] But basically, it has had different boot loaders on it, like... +[3653.00 --> 3654.00] Yeah, like a few of them. +[3654.00 --> 3657.00] Has had viruses and has had them removed. +[3657.00 --> 3658.00] Yep. +[3658.00 --> 3661.00] The way that a computer actually gets used, and then we ran... +[3661.00 --> 3664.00] We cloned that exact OS over to an SSD. +[3664.00 --> 3670.00] So, we're showing the worst case, most broken scenario for both, and we tested them head to head. +[3670.00 --> 3673.00] And you guys are going to be wanting to check out the results. +[3673.00 --> 3674.00] It's amazing. +[3674.00 --> 3675.00] That's going to come out sometime... +[3675.00 --> 3676.00] When is that video coming out? +[3676.00 --> 3677.00] It's fully ready. +[3677.00 --> 3678.00] Is it ready? +[3678.00 --> 3679.00] Okay. +[3679.00 --> 3681.00] So, it's probably going to come out sometime this weekend or early next week. +[3681.00 --> 3682.00] So, stay tuned for that, guys. +[3682.00 --> 3683.00] I think it'll be early next week. +[3683.00 --> 3684.00] It's not edited yet. +[3684.00 --> 3685.00] Oh, okay. +[3685.00 --> 3686.00] It's like, it's the... +[3686.00 --> 3687.00] So, that'll be next week. +[3687.00 --> 3690.00] The graphs are done, all the footage is shot. +[3690.00 --> 3696.00] I think it's going to be the video to show the people who don't understand the value of an SSD. +[3696.00 --> 3699.00] Someone in chat says, SSD is just a number. +[3699.00 --> 3700.00] No, it is not. +[3700.00 --> 3701.00] Actually, it isn't. +[3701.00 --> 3704.00] This time, it is actually not. +[3704.00 --> 3706.00] Oh, man. +[3706.00 --> 3707.00] Where was that other thing? +[3707.00 --> 3709.00] The VR fan. +[3709.00 --> 3711.00] Let's talk about the VR fan. +[3711.00 --> 3714.00] I have to confess, I didn't read this. +[3714.00 --> 3715.00] Okay. +[3715.00 --> 3716.00] So, you're on point. +[3716.00 --> 3717.00] Oh, dang. +[3717.00 --> 3718.00] I was going to try and get you... +[3718.00 --> 3721.00] Because I got this, but I was going to try and get you... +[3721.00 --> 3724.00] Like, what are your immediate thoughts upon seeing it? +[3724.00 --> 3725.00] Okay. +[3725.00 --> 3726.00] I did look at it a little bit. +[3726.00 --> 3729.00] So, the idea is that it's going to blow air at you in order to make things more immersive, right? +[3729.00 --> 3730.00] I think it's retarded. +[3730.00 --> 3731.00] Yeah. +[3731.00 --> 3732.00] Okay. +[3732.00 --> 3733.00] What do you think I think about it? +[3733.00 --> 3736.00] I think that you probably think it's amazing. +[3736.00 --> 3737.00] Nope. +[3737.00 --> 3738.00] Really? +[3738.00 --> 3739.00] I'm actually totally on your side. +[3739.00 --> 3740.00] Oh, okay. +[3740.00 --> 3742.00] And I've surprised almost everyone with that so far. +[3742.00 --> 3747.00] But I, like, at E3, everyone saw me freak out over Control VR. +[3747.00 --> 3752.00] And everyone saw my point about how for VR to become amazing, we need to immerse all senses. +[3752.00 --> 3753.00] Yeah. +[3753.00 --> 3754.00] And that got quoted a few times. +[3754.00 --> 3755.00] And I still stand by that. +[3755.00 --> 3761.00] But we don't need to be worrying about, like, wind force at this point in the game +[3761.00 --> 3766.00] with some, like, random little tiny fan, which is probably not going to feel like it actually +[3766.00 --> 3767.00] is anyways. +[3767.00 --> 3769.00] For certain specialty cases. +[3769.00 --> 3770.00] Like very specific things. +[3770.00 --> 3771.00] Like that bird thing. +[3771.00 --> 3772.00] Like the bird thing. +[3772.00 --> 3776.00] Where the fan was adaptively making you feel like you were rushing through the air. +[3776.00 --> 3777.00] Okay. +[3777.00 --> 3779.00] But it's not the kind of thing that I'm going to... +[3779.00 --> 3780.00] Okay. +[3780.00 --> 3785.00] And if it's just a desk fan that sits on my desk and is just a desk fan, except when I'm +[3785.00 --> 3788.00] like, okay, I'm firing up the Oculus, it's still done. +[3788.00 --> 3790.00] Because you need it to be... +[3790.00 --> 3795.00] Like for the bird thing, when he was flying, the whole fan physically moved. +[3795.00 --> 3796.00] Yes. +[3796.00 --> 3799.00] So this thing isn't going to work unless you like, okay, this is where the fan is. +[3799.00 --> 3800.00] So my head goes... +[3800.00 --> 3801.00] Here. +[3801.00 --> 3806.00] Because, like, it's going to have to be positioned perfectly. +[3806.00 --> 3810.00] So unless you're like strapping it onto this huge rig that you're building anyways +[3810.00 --> 3814.00] for the one game that it's applicable for, I'm not really sure. +[3814.00 --> 3815.00] And I would... +[3815.00 --> 3816.00] I just like... +[3816.00 --> 3820.00] It's cool that this guy made this, but I don't necessarily think it's good enough or ready +[3820.00 --> 3821.00] yet, for one. +[3821.00 --> 3823.00] And it's... +[3823.00 --> 3826.00] I'm more worried about stuff like full body motion capture. +[3826.00 --> 3827.00] Yeah. +[3827.00 --> 3830.00] There's like a way bigger deal than the wind. +[3830.00 --> 3831.00] I don't know. +[3831.00 --> 3832.00] I don't know. +[3832.00 --> 3834.00] I mean, to me it feels like... +[3834.00 --> 3836.00] I hope Devil's Yee is watching. +[3836.00 --> 3840.00] To me it feels kind of like, especially early implementations of PhysX. +[3840.00 --> 3841.00] Oh! +[3841.00 --> 3844.00] Where it's a nice to have, not a need to have. +[3844.00 --> 3845.00] Right. +[3845.00 --> 3846.00] Like, especially... +[3846.00 --> 3848.00] Remember games like Grah, right? +[3848.00 --> 3854.00] Where the PhysX implementation was like crumpled paper and tin cans on the ground. +[3854.00 --> 3855.00] Oh, wrecked! +[3855.00 --> 3856.00] Right? +[3856.00 --> 3857.00] Where it's just like, okay, so that's there. +[3857.00 --> 3860.00] I totally don't care, and this is totally stupid. +[3860.00 --> 3867.00] This fan is not going to be an integral part of any gameplay in the next 10 years. +[3867.00 --> 3868.00] You can quote me on that. +[3868.00 --> 3870.00] Well, the bird simulator thing. +[3870.00 --> 3871.00] That's not gameplay. +[3871.00 --> 3873.00] That's a simulation. +[3873.00 --> 3876.00] Slightly different actually. +[3876.00 --> 3878.00] But still within the same category. +[3878.00 --> 3879.00] I suppose. +[3879.00 --> 3880.00] It is a version. +[3880.00 --> 3881.00] Okay. +[3881.00 --> 3884.00] That fan will not be part of the gameplay. +[3884.00 --> 3886.00] And that's another thing. +[3886.00 --> 3889.00] Like, it has these nice cool specifics in terms of speed and stuff like that. +[3889.00 --> 3890.00] Okay. +[3890.00 --> 3892.00] But it's probably immersive enough just to shove a fan in. +[3892.00 --> 3894.00] And I said integral part of gameplay. +[3894.00 --> 3895.00] Yeah. +[3895.00 --> 3900.00] Like, you look at how long something like PhysX, where Nvidia has, throughout the entirety +[3900.00 --> 3906.00] of PhysX's history, had 60 plus percent market share on the desktop PC. +[3906.00 --> 3907.00] Okay? +[3907.00 --> 3910.00] The cards that support PhysX are out there. +[3910.00 --> 3915.00] And yet, we still don't have PhysX as an integral part of any gameplay. +[3915.00 --> 3919.00] With the exception of, like, Cell Factor. +[3919.00 --> 3921.00] Which was never a thing. +[3921.00 --> 3922.00] It was a tech demo. +[3922.00 --> 3924.00] Couldn't you, like, kick cans and stuff? +[3924.00 --> 3926.00] Wasn't that, like, a big part of the game? +[3926.00 --> 3931.00] So, with the 16 people who own this fan, are we expecting a real game developer to build +[3931.00 --> 3933.00] and support the answer is no? +[3933.00 --> 3935.00] Uh, apparently, yeah. +[3935.00 --> 3937.00] To, integral part of game. +[3937.00 --> 3938.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3938.00 --> 3939.00] So there you go. +[3939.00 --> 3941.00] I don't, I just, yeah. +[3941.00 --> 3943.00] I, uh... +[3943.00 --> 3947.00] It's, it's, it's, it's a cool idea, but, like, he's, he's not getting funded because +[3947.00 --> 3949.00] of everything that you just said. +[3949.00 --> 3951.00] Um, and maybe he does eventually get funded. +[3951.00 --> 3954.00] And I hope, like, someone picks him up. +[3954.00 --> 3956.00] Because that would be cool. +[3956.00 --> 3958.00] Because they're doing interesting programming stuff at the same time. +[3958.00 --> 3963.00] And if someone picks him up and makes a way better version, that would be really cool. +[3963.00 --> 3967.00] If someone picks him up and integrates it with another piece of VR hardware, like, maybe +[3967.00 --> 3971.00] Omni gets, like, a ring of them. +[3971.00 --> 3974.00] So that as you're walking around, they could all work dynamically. +[3974.00 --> 3976.00] Because you're able to plug them in together. +[3976.00 --> 3980.00] Okay, by the time we're building solutions that are advanced enough for that. +[3980.00 --> 3982.00] Like, you know, like how you and I were talking about how the arcade... +[3982.00 --> 3983.00] No, that's what I mean, though. +[3983.00 --> 3984.00] Yeah, might see a comeback. +[3984.00 --> 3985.00] Like, it would have to be something else. +[3985.00 --> 3987.00] But it would be something way more advanced than this. +[3987.00 --> 3988.00] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3988.00 --> 3989.00] I wasn't really listening. +[3989.00 --> 3990.00] Was that what you were saying? +[3990.00 --> 3991.00] Basically. +[3991.00 --> 3992.00] Good job. +[3992.00 --> 3993.00] Yeah. +[3993.00 --> 3994.00] Okay. +[3994.00 --> 3995.00] I was making a straw poll. +[3995.00 --> 3996.00] Because you can already string them together. +[3996.00 --> 3998.00] So you can plug them together and then they can work together to create the experience. +[3998.00 --> 3999.00] You can already do that. +[3999.00 --> 4001.00] So it probably doesn't work that great, though. +[4001.00 --> 4005.00] So if someone else, what I'm saying is if someone else picks them up and then integrates their fan solution +[4005.00 --> 4010.00] into a much bigger product and then is able to have them all string together and make it so that... +[4010.00 --> 4012.00] Like an arcade or something, that could be really, really cool. +[4012.00 --> 4014.00] Alright, I have a straw poll for you guys. +[4014.00 --> 4019.00] I'm evaluating options right now. +[4019.00 --> 4024.00] We don't necessarily know what form this would take. +[4024.00 --> 4031.00] But I'd just like for you guys to tell me, would you consider for your rig, for your gaming PC, +[4031.00 --> 4034.00] buying a Linus Tech Tips color-schemed fan? +[4034.00 --> 4038.00] So it would just be black and orange and it would be about $20, potentially. +[4038.00 --> 4040.00] And I can't give any more details. +[4040.00 --> 4042.00] It's something that I've wanted to do for a long time. +[4042.00 --> 4044.00] We were looking for the right partner. +[4044.00 --> 4045.00] It's a high-quality fan. +[4045.00 --> 4046.00] Sorry? +[4046.00 --> 4047.00] It's a high-quality. +[4047.00 --> 4048.00] We can say it's a high-quality fan. +[4048.00 --> 4049.00] Well, we don't have the fan nailed down just yet. +[4049.00 --> 4051.00] So I've been trying to do this for a long time. +[4051.00 --> 4055.00] And basically what I want to know is, do you guys even think it's worth the effort? +[4055.00 --> 4062.00] Because, to put this in perspective, to buy fans, like I would have to buy them. +[4062.00 --> 4064.00] I would have to buy thousands. +[4064.00 --> 4072.00] So unless there are hundreds of you who are like, yes, I'll buy one or I'll buy two or I'll buy five, this can't happen. +[4072.00 --> 4078.00] So I need to get some idea if you guys think that this is something that's worth doing. +[4078.00 --> 4081.00] And you can feel free to tweet that at us as well. +[4081.00 --> 4083.00] We'll do a bit of a Twitter blitz about this. +[4084.00 --> 4088.00] If you guys want to go ahead and tweet us. +[4089.00 --> 4090.00] Sounds dirty. +[4090.00 --> 4092.00] Tweet dirty to me. +[4092.00 --> 4095.00] And all the tweets were not related to the fans. +[4095.00 --> 4096.00] Wow. +[4096.00 --> 4099.00] That's interesting. +[4099.00 --> 4102.00] Speaking of tweets that are not related to anything. +[4102.00 --> 4104.00] What the heck is this? +[4104.00 --> 4109.00] I don't know. +[4109.00 --> 4112.00] I don't know. +[4112.00 --> 4113.00] Wow. +[4113.00 --> 4115.00] Live shopping. +[4115.00 --> 4118.00] Us on the stream needs to not be a thing. +[4118.00 --> 4124.00] Someone says, please invest in a lapel mic. +[4124.00 --> 4128.00] That Explorer 3 review was hard to watch with audio like that. +[4128.00 --> 4130.00] What's the Explorer 3? +[4130.00 --> 4131.00] I have no idea. +[4131.00 --> 4136.00] Is Alex Hardy confusing us with somebody else? +[4136.00 --> 4137.00] Explorer 3. +[4137.00 --> 4142.00] I can't even think if that was a typo what that could be. +[4142.00 --> 4143.00] Yeah. +[4143.00 --> 4144.00] Explorer 3. +[4144.00 --> 4147.00] Anyway, we have a lapel mic. +[4147.00 --> 4152.00] We did do a video recently where we didn't use our lav and it was because these guys took it to a trade show. +[4152.00 --> 4154.00] So basically deal with it. +[4154.00 --> 4157.00] That's all I really have to say. +[4157.00 --> 4158.00] Yeah. +[4158.00 --> 4159.00] I don't think so. +[4159.00 --> 4160.00] No. +[4160.00 --> 4161.00] No. +[4161.00 --> 4162.00] No. +[4162.00 --> 4165.00] Anyway, let's move on. +[4165.00 --> 4167.00] So people are saying... +[4167.00 --> 4168.00] Maybe he meant E3? +[4168.00 --> 4169.00] Sure. +[4169.00 --> 4170.00] I don't know. +[4170.00 --> 4173.00] People are saying they have brand preferences. +[4173.00 --> 4175.00] People are saying they want LEDs. +[4175.00 --> 4180.00] I can tell you right now it probably won't be LEDs and I can tell you right now they won't be cheaper than $20. +[4180.00 --> 4182.00] I'd buy a fan. +[4182.00 --> 4183.00] I'll buy six. +[4183.00 --> 4186.00] I'd buy them if they were high quality and get my PC cool. +[4186.00 --> 4187.00] My bill was black and orange. +[4187.00 --> 4188.00] I'm down. +[4188.00 --> 4189.00] I'd make all my fans. +[4189.00 --> 4190.00] Linus edition. +[4190.00 --> 4191.00] Okay. +[4191.00 --> 4195.00] So people are saying sort of yes. +[4195.00 --> 4197.00] I'm getting advice. +[4197.00 --> 4200.00] Don't invest tens of thousands of dollars in fans, Linus. +[4200.00 --> 4207.00] If I didn't invest tens of thousands of dollars in my fans, where would you all be? +[4207.00 --> 4211.00] Not fans of anything we do, potentially. +[4211.00 --> 4212.00] Or maybe you would. +[4212.00 --> 4216.00] Maybe I could have done all of this without hiring people and buying a bunch of equipment and stuff. +[4216.00 --> 4219.00] I'm going back to PewDiePie's approach. +[4219.00 --> 4222.00] Actually, that's something that I meant to talk about on the show this week is news broke. +[4222.00 --> 4228.00] There was a Forbes article about how PewDiePie makes $4 million a year, or at least did last year. +[4228.00 --> 4233.00] I can tell you right now if it was $4 million last year, it's a lot more than that this year. +[4233.00 --> 4235.00] And there's a whole bunch of stuff going on. +[4235.00 --> 4241.00] I mean, Pewds himself has come out and said that that might be something of an exaggeration. +[4241.00 --> 4248.00] Although, I so call BS on that because I know how much money we make. +[4248.00 --> 4251.00] I know how many views we get. +[4251.00 --> 4253.00] I know what a typical CPM is. +[4253.00 --> 4255.00] I know all of these metrics. +[4255.00 --> 4256.00] And that sounds about right. +[4256.00 --> 4257.00] So... +[4257.00 --> 4259.00] And like, don't even just look at subscribers. +[4259.00 --> 4262.00] Look at how many views and how many videos he pumps out. +[4262.00 --> 4264.00] And there are a lot of misconceptions. +[4264.00 --> 4266.00] And you look at how many videos he pumps out. +[4266.00 --> 4268.00] And also the fact that it's basically pure profit. +[4268.00 --> 4272.00] Because he doesn't really have a team of people. +[4272.00 --> 4273.00] Or really any overhead. +[4273.00 --> 4276.00] It's streaming at a computer. +[4276.00 --> 4278.00] Like he's shown what his game streaming setup looks like. +[4278.00 --> 4279.00] It's nothing really special. +[4279.00 --> 4281.00] There's lots of games, but... +[4281.00 --> 4282.00] Yeah, aside from that. +[4282.00 --> 4287.00] I mean, I'm not going to be one of those guys that goes, he doesn't deserve it. +[4287.00 --> 4301.00] Because the reality of it is, the way the world works is the people who figure something out and are clever enough to figure it out really well and be the best at something, be number one at anything, are going to be rewarded. +[4301.00 --> 4303.00] I'm not the number one YouTuber. +[4303.00 --> 4306.00] So I'm not going to get that massive, enormous reward. +[4306.00 --> 4307.00] And I'm okay with that. +[4307.00 --> 4309.00] I'm not going to be all, you know, butthurt. +[4309.00 --> 4310.00] Oh, he makes so much money. +[4310.00 --> 4311.00] I'm so unhappy. +[4311.00 --> 4314.00] You know, I say good for him. +[4314.00 --> 4316.00] And people are... +[4316.00 --> 4317.00] The other... +[4317.00 --> 4323.00] People on the other side are pointing out that he has done charitable donations and, you know, raised money for worthy causes and all that stuff. +[4323.00 --> 4325.00] And, you know, I think that's great too. +[4325.00 --> 4331.00] I also don't think it necessarily, you know, validates if people make a ton of money and then they also raise money for charity. +[4331.00 --> 4333.00] I don't think that that... +[4333.00 --> 4340.00] I don't think that should make people less upset about the disparity between the extremely wealthy and the extremely not wealthy. +[4340.00 --> 4343.00] I just think it is what it is. +[4343.00 --> 4347.00] And that number looks pretty realistic to me. +[4347.00 --> 4350.00] I also wanted to dispel some myths. +[4350.00 --> 4359.00] So there are people out there who think that, you know, Google AdSense on YouTube videos is like massive, massive amounts of money. +[4359.00 --> 4378.00] To put things in perspective, Linus Media Group, if it relied strictly on Google AdSense, I could pay each of the people here about $20,000 a year after their taxes and after like employment insurance. +[4378.00 --> 4380.00] That's below minimum wage. +[4380.00 --> 4381.00] Pension pay, yes. +[4381.00 --> 4382.00] That's well below minimum wage. +[4382.00 --> 4384.00] And we all work like massive overtime. +[4384.00 --> 4386.00] And we all work really hard. +[4386.00 --> 4387.00] I prefer the term really hard. +[4387.00 --> 4388.00] We work really hard. +[4388.00 --> 4390.00] Gratuitous amounts of overtime. +[4390.00 --> 4392.00] I didn't stop working last night until like 2 a.m. +[4392.00 --> 4395.00] The point is that that's not the way it works. +[4395.00 --> 4410.00] However, if you do get those kinds of viewership numbers where you look at it and I think his numbers are like an order of magnitude and more higher than ours, then it starts to add up, especially if you don't have a ton of overhead. +[4410.00 --> 4416.00] Another of the misconceptions that I encountered was that YouTubers get paid for subscribers. +[4416.00 --> 4420.00] YouTubers get paid exactly $0 for having a lot of subscribers. +[4420.00 --> 4425.00] The fact that I have 850,000 subscribers on a channel means nothing to Google. +[4425.00 --> 4427.00] Nothing in terms of money. +[4427.00 --> 4433.00] It might mean something in terms of the inherent value of having someone who clicked and said, +[4433.00 --> 4436.00] Yes, I would like to hear from you when you produce some new content. +[4436.00 --> 4440.00] There's a value there, but it doesn't translate into money at all. +[4440.00 --> 4443.00] The money comes from the actual views. +[4443.00 --> 4450.00] So if you want to figure out how much a YouTuber is making relative to another YouTuber, then you would look at views, not at subscribers. +[4450.00 --> 4456.00] You could have a million subscribers and not be getting a ton of views like someone like Peter Chow. +[4456.00 --> 4465.00] And the revenue is probably not as strong there unless he's doing really lucrative brand integrations or things like that. +[4465.00 --> 4476.00] So that's how YouTubers are making the big bucks, is doing things like Devon Supertramp's Watch Dogs parkour in real life or whatever thing. +[4476.00 --> 4480.00] There's no way that Ubisoft didn't pay enormous buckets of money for that, for example. +[4480.00 --> 4486.00] YouTube, the couple million views on YouTube were not going to be worth the effort of making that video. +[4486.00 --> 4490.00] Some people started freaking out that our minimum wage is so high. +[4490.00 --> 4492.00] Just don't forget cost of living expense. +[4492.00 --> 4495.00] Yeah, Vancouver is an extremely expensive place to live. +[4495.00 --> 4500.00] Where we live has the 10 most expensive places to buy gas in all of North America. +[4500.00 --> 4501.00] So... +[4501.00 --> 4502.00] Yeah! +[4502.00 --> 4504.00] It's kind of expensive. +[4504.00 --> 4505.00] Food's expensive! +[4505.00 --> 4507.00] And houses are expensive! +[4507.00 --> 4510.00] Isn't Vancouver also one of the most expensive... +[4510.00 --> 4511.00] I think it's like number 2. +[4511.00 --> 4512.00] Yeah. +[4512.00 --> 4515.00] The most expensive place to live after San Fran. +[4515.00 --> 4517.00] Yeah, something like that. +[4517.00 --> 4518.00] Yeah, it's ridiculous. +[4518.00 --> 4519.00] Yeah, it's ridiculous. +[4519.00 --> 4520.00] It's expensive. +[4520.00 --> 4521.00] Okay! +[4521.00 --> 4525.00] Well, I guess I'll show the results of the straw poll there. +[4525.00 --> 4528.00] So it looks like there are at least hundreds of you who would be interested in a black and +[4528.00 --> 4531.00] orange Linus Tech Tips themed fan for 20 bucks. +[4531.00 --> 4533.00] I'm still working on it. +[4533.00 --> 4535.00] I really hope that that's something that we can do. +[4535.00 --> 4539.00] It's nice of you guys to give me your feedback here. +[4539.00 --> 4541.00] I really appreciate that. +[4541.00 --> 4542.00] I'm going to try and do it. +[4542.00 --> 4545.00] And even if people don't buy them, then that's great. +[4545.00 --> 4546.00] But... +[4546.00 --> 4547.00] We can make forts out of them. +[4547.00 --> 4548.00] Yeah, we could make forts out of them. +[4548.00 --> 4550.00] We could make a fan throne! +[4550.00 --> 4552.00] Fan throne! +[4552.00 --> 4555.00] We have to make a fan throne. +[4555.00 --> 4558.00] Sometimes I just hate you. +[4558.00 --> 4563.00] We should try to make a channel super fun out of trying to make a quadcopter out of... +[4563.00 --> 4564.00] Not even a quadcopter. +[4564.00 --> 4565.00] Not even anything. +[4565.00 --> 4566.00] Infinicopter! +[4566.00 --> 4567.00] I think we're done here. +[4567.00 --> 4568.00] Infinicopter! +[4568.00 --> 4571.00] Guys, what are your plans after the show? +[4571.00 --> 4572.00] I'm doing an after party. +[4572.00 --> 4575.00] And I have no plans tonight, so I'm doing an after party for like... +[4575.00 --> 4576.00] Are you playing Mario Kart? +[4576.00 --> 4577.00] Because I want to play some Mario Kart. +[4577.00 --> 4578.00] Do you want to play Mario Kart? +[4578.00 --> 4579.00] Should we go down and play Mario Kart? +[4579.00 --> 4580.00] Let's go down and play Mario Kart. +[4580.00 --> 4581.00] Let's go down and play some Mario Kart. +[4581.00 --> 4582.00] Alright. +[4582.00 --> 4583.00] Badass. +[4583.00 --> 4584.00] Alright guys, peace out! +[4584.00 --> 4585.00] Thanks for watching the WAN show. +[4585.00 --> 4588.00] We'll see you again, same bad time, same bad channel, next week! +[4588.00 --> 4590.00] And I hope that you also enjoyed the show as much as we enjoyed making it. +[4590.00 --> 4591.00] It was a blast! +[4591.00 --> 4598.00] And thank you to our sponsors, Squarespace, and then Highlander, which is Intel, Corsair, +[4598.00 --> 4599.00] and... +[4599.00 --> 4600.00] Oh no. +[4600.00 --> 4601.00] Asus! +[4601.00 --> 4602.00] Yeah. +[4602.00 --> 4603.00] Oh, I struggle so much. +[4603.00 --> 4605.00] The problem was because he was trying to go so fast. +[4605.00 --> 4608.00] And the other one is Intel with that sponsored livestream and the CPUs we're giving away! +[4608.00 --> 4609.00] Stay tuned on Twitter for that. +[4609.00 --> 4610.00] It's gonna be... +[4610.00 --> 4611.00] That's

+[117.44 --> 121.44] We also have YouTube Tip Jar, so you'll be able to tip up to something. +[121.44 --> 122.44] Talk about that later. +[122.44 --> 125.44] To YouTube creators while watching their videos. +[125.44 --> 130.44] And Twitch and YouTube are both gonna be playing at 60 FPS now. +[130.44 --> 131.44] Wow! +[131.44 --> 132.44] So apparently that does matter. +[132.44 --> 133.44] 60 FPS U-tib. +[133.44 --> 134.44] U-tib! +[134.44 --> 135.44] U-tib! +[135.44 --> 138.44] I can watch PewDiePie yell with that much more clarity now. +[138.44 --> 139.44] Tweet-tube. +[139.44 --> 140.44] Tweet-tube. +[140.44 --> 141.44] Alright, intro time. +[146.44 --> 147.44] Tweet-tube. +[147.44 --> 148.44] Tweet-tube. +[148.44 --> 149.44] Tweet-tube. +[149.44 --> 150.44] Tweet-tube. +[150.44 --> 151.44] Tweet-tube. +[151.44 --> 152.44] Tweet-tube. +[152.44 --> 153.44] Tweet-tube. +[153.44 --> 154.44] Tweet-tube. +[154.44 --> 155.44] Tweet-tube. +[155.44 --> 156.44] Tweet-tube. +[156.44 --> 157.44] Tweet-tube. +[157.44 --> 158.44] Tweet-tube. +[158.44 --> 159.44] Tweet-tube. +[159.44 --> 160.44] Tweet-tube. +[160.44 --> 161.44] Tweet-tube. +[161.44 --> 163.44] We are moving the microphone down. +[163.44 --> 164.44] Probably sounds a little bit. +[164.44 --> 166.44] Ah, it's not that bad. +[166.44 --> 167.44] I've got it in my ears. +[167.44 --> 171.44] Alright, we have a few sponsors for you this week. +[171.44 --> 175.44] Earlier this week, we actually did a sponsored live stream. +[175.44 --> 180.44] We call these Ask the Expert and we're going to talk to you guys about what we discussed +[180.44 --> 187.44] with Darren Lynch from Intel as well as give you guys the exclusive link to watch the archived live stream. +[187.44 --> 189.44] So, I hope you enjoy that. +[189.44 --> 192.44] Next up, we've got Squarespace. +[192.44 --> 194.44] And that's not the one that I meant to do. +[194.44 --> 195.44] Wow, back to this. +[195.44 --> 198.44] And oh, now everything is bricked and terrible. +[198.44 --> 199.44] Okay, Squarespace. +[199.44 --> 201.44] 10% off with offer code Linus. +[201.44 --> 207.44] Also, we are going to announce the winner of a free one-year Squarespace subscription. +[207.44 --> 211.44] And finally, we've got Dollar Shave Club. +[211.44 --> 214.44] Shave time, shave money, join the club. +[214.44 --> 221.44] Visit Dollar Shave Club in order to get high quality bathroom supplies shipped straight to your door. +[221.44 --> 224.44] And that is it for my- oh yeah, and it's not very expensive. +[224.44 --> 226.44] Hence the dollar. +[226.44 --> 231.44] I mean, it doesn't cost a- well, it can cost a dollar, but it doesn't cost a dollar for like the really good stuff. +[231.44 --> 233.44] But it's still a lot cheaper than the other thing. +[233.44 --> 236.44] So, I think I've gotten my point across now. +[236.44 --> 239.44] And yes, the intro was playing and the music was broken. +[239.44 --> 242.44] I actually kind of liked talking over the music. +[242.44 --> 243.44] We should have music in the background. +[243.44 --> 246.44] So, next week we'll get like a music track. +[246.44 --> 250.44] But for this week, can you just kind of beatbox while I do the show? +[250.44 --> 257.44] Alright, so our first topic this week is going to be the- well, if I had my topics open, I'd be able to do that. +[257.44 --> 261.44] YouTube now runs at 60 FPS. +[261.44 --> 264.44] They actually announced a bunch of really- +[264.44 --> 267.44] The best part is I'm a horrible beatboxer. +[267.44 --> 268.44] I can't do anything. +[268.44 --> 270.44] I have no abilities whatsoever. +[270.44 --> 274.44] But if we actually had an actual beatboxer, that could have been maybe cool? +[274.44 --> 275.44] I don't know. +[275.44 --> 276.44] No, probably not. +[276.44 --> 282.44] I have about the beatboxing skills of like that random six year old kid on the playground who thinks he's a plane. +[282.44 --> 283.44] That's about it. +[283.44 --> 289.44] Or that kid that used to run around the track while making motorcycle noises. +[289.44 --> 296.44] The sophisticated kids put the playing cards in the spokes. +[296.44 --> 298.44] There you go. +[298.44 --> 299.44] Yeah. +[299.44 --> 301.44] I did that when I was like 12. +[301.44 --> 302.44] I think I did as well actually. +[302.44 --> 305.44] Yeah, I think I should have been younger than 12 when I was doing that. +[305.44 --> 310.44] Alright, so this was originally posted on the forum by RT. +[310.44 --> 314.44] YouTube now supports Le 60 FPS. +[314.44 --> 320.44] I actually retweeted this tweet last night because I was pretty stoked on this news. +[320.44 --> 321.44] But there you go. +[321.44 --> 329.44] So what they say is motion intense videos will look even better on YouTube when we launch support for 48 and 60 FPS. +[329.44 --> 338.44] So bring on the Hobbit piracy since that's the only thing that comes to mind that runs at 48 frames per second. +[338.44 --> 339.44] No, but seriously though. +[339.44 --> 343.44] Higher frame rates are better for many things. +[343.44 --> 350.44] I know you guys are probably expecting me to say, well now every single video on YouTube should run at 60 FPS. +[350.44 --> 353.44] But that's not necessarily the case. +[353.44 --> 357.44] Gameplay will definitely benefit from this. +[357.44 --> 362.44] Things like running around with a camcorder, probably not so much. +[362.44 --> 372.44] The main benefit, the reason that we shoot all of our channel Super Fun stuff for example in 60 FPS is the ability to slow it down to half speed and still play at 30 FPS. +[372.44 --> 377.44] Which to the eye with appropriate motion blur does still look very fluid. +[377.44 --> 385.44] The problem with games is that the eye and graphics cards, well they don't inherently have motion blur. +[385.44 --> 393.44] They don't actually help you put the pieces together of each of these frames the way that something like a film does. +[393.44 --> 395.44] So 60 FPS, exciting. +[395.44 --> 396.44] One little trick. +[396.44 --> 397.44] Yeah. +[397.44 --> 400.44] You have to turn it up to 1080p in order to enable 60 FPS. +[400.44 --> 403.44] Also if you're in Firefox you might not be able to see it automatically. +[403.44 --> 413.44] So if you go download all HTML5 or some other HTML5 add-on which can switch YouTube to HTML5 by forcing it, then you'll be good to go. +[413.44 --> 416.44] I'm so over Firefox at this point. +[416.44 --> 424.44] Between it logging me out of the forum all the time and just flat out not working very well and crashing a lot over the last little while, +[424.44 --> 426.44] I think we've pretty much broken up. +[426.44 --> 429.44] So Firefox is now my tertiary browser. +[429.44 --> 430.44] Whoa. +[430.44 --> 431.44] Yeah. +[431.44 --> 432.44] What's your second? +[432.44 --> 433.44] At home. +[433.44 --> 438.44] I am actually using Chrome, i.e. Firefox. +[438.44 --> 439.44] Ugh. +[439.44 --> 441.44] Why not like Opera or something? +[441.44 --> 443.44] Opera doesn't work with anything. +[443.44 --> 444.44] It does. +[444.44 --> 445.44] No. +[445.44 --> 446.44] I use... +[446.44 --> 447.44] I'm turning on Chromium. +[447.44 --> 449.44] Google straight up doesn't support Opera. +[449.44 --> 451.44] Google doesn't support Opera? +[451.44 --> 452.44] No. +[452.44 --> 454.44] They say blah blah blah blah blah blah. +[454.44 --> 456.44] Sometimes when you log into stuff it'll be like, +[456.44 --> 459.44] oh yeah this feature works on Firefox and Chrome. +[459.44 --> 463.44] And then half the time it doesn't work on Firefox and the other half of the time it doesn't work on Chrome. +[463.44 --> 464.44] So... +[464.44 --> 469.44] I have a feeling within the next few years Google is going to try to basically eradicate everything except for Chrome. +[469.44 --> 475.44] Because I honestly think a lot of the issues that are coming in are based around Google just being like, nope, nope, nope, we're doing all of this. +[475.44 --> 478.44] It seems to be mostly Flash related for Firefox for me. +[478.44 --> 479.44] Yeah. +[479.44 --> 482.44] And I mean it's not like Adobe and Google are in cahoots. +[482.44 --> 485.44] So I think it's gotta... I gotta just blame the Mozilla team for that. +[485.44 --> 487.44] I don't know. +[487.44 --> 492.44] But if the Flash thing's your problem just download the HTML5 add-on and you're good to go. +[492.44 --> 494.44] Yeah, even then. +[494.44 --> 496.44] Not everything runs on HTML5. +[496.44 --> 500.44] Sometimes Flash things exist and then my browser crashes and then... +[500.44 --> 509.44] And this is something that I have an issue with with both Firefox and Chrome is it seems like about 30% of the time the restore last browsing session feature just... +[509.44 --> 511.44] Doesn't work. +[511.44 --> 513.44] I have literally never had a problem with that with Firefox. +[513.44 --> 515.44] I had it happen last night. +[515.44 --> 516.44] Last very night. +[516.44 --> 517.44] Last night was my last night. +[517.44 --> 519.44] Did you have multiple windows open? +[519.44 --> 520.44] Of course I did. +[520.44 --> 521.44] I always do. +[521.44 --> 522.44] You know what my computer looks like. +[522.44 --> 523.44] Why do you have multiple windows open? +[523.44 --> 528.44] Because I need to be able to alt tab between certain sets of tabs very quickly. +[528.44 --> 529.44] So for example... +[529.44 --> 532.44] You guys should see like he's complaining about his RAM. +[532.44 --> 533.44] He has to upgrade his RAM. +[533.44 --> 536.44] He doesn't do anything other than web browse. +[536.44 --> 537.44] I have six gigs of RAM. +[537.44 --> 538.44] He's capping his RAM. +[538.44 --> 541.44] I have to upgrade my desktop. +[541.44 --> 544.44] My browser's taking like five gigs of RAM. +[544.44 --> 548.44] Yeah I know. +[548.44 --> 550.44] I'm having trouble defending Firefox lately. +[550.44 --> 552.44] I hope they pick it up because... +[552.44 --> 553.44] I don't know. +[553.44 --> 556.44] I feel a lot more safer on Firefox than I do on Chrome. +[556.44 --> 558.44] Yeah well there you go. +[558.44 --> 560.44] Alright so... +[560.44 --> 565.44] Oh this is something really cool that also came out of the VidCon event recently. +[565.44 --> 568.44] They are adding caption crowdsourcing. +[568.44 --> 572.44] So every single video will just say butts butts butts butts butts on the bottom. +[572.44 --> 573.44] Well probably yes. +[573.44 --> 577.44] The first thing I thought of when I read that was like okay. +[577.44 --> 583.44] Every single video that's going to attract like a certain crowd is just going to have like... butts. +[583.44 --> 586.44] Yeah there's going to be a lot of potential for this to be griefed. +[586.44 --> 591.44] I have to think though that once the initial sort of spam dies down... +[591.44 --> 592.44] It'll probably start to... +[592.44 --> 594.44] It'll probably settle in. +[594.44 --> 598.44] I think videos like ours will probably do reasonably well by comparison. +[598.44 --> 599.44] And the way that I see it... +[599.44 --> 602.44] Except for this one which will probably just have butts butts butts on it. +[602.44 --> 608.44] Yeah someone will go and hide it like three quarters of the way through where no one's going to be looking at the captions. +[608.44 --> 615.44] I mean especially in English it's probably going to be more a matter of going through and fixing the mistakes of the automatic one. +[615.44 --> 616.44] Yeah. +[616.44 --> 619.44] So I mean I'm sure YouTube will be able to tell. +[619.44 --> 623.44] Because in much the same way that they can take the audio track and they can caption it... +[623.44 --> 627.44] I'm sure they can take the captioning and somewhat validate it. +[627.44 --> 629.44] So figure out if it's like that far off? +[629.44 --> 630.44] Yes. +[630.44 --> 631.44] Okay. +[631.44 --> 632.44] That's interesting. +[632.44 --> 633.44] That's what I expect to happen. +[633.44 --> 634.44] Although this is all just me guessing. +[634.44 --> 635.44] These features are not out yet. +[635.44 --> 636.44] That makes sense though. +[636.44 --> 638.44] And if they're not doing that now they probably should. +[638.44 --> 641.44] And they'll probably think of that or figure that out at some point in time. +[641.44 --> 643.44] Maybe pay us 10%. +[643.44 --> 652.44] So I find a lot of the news that just happened in this one segment are all like PewDiePie. +[652.44 --> 656.44] Because it's YouTube 60fps and TipJar. +[656.44 --> 657.44] So if he's having problems... +[657.44 --> 658.44] Well he's like... +[658.44 --> 659.44] Seems to be doing okay for me. +[659.44 --> 660.44] Doing okay. +[660.44 --> 665.44] But game streamers in general aren't probably going to make as much money on their ads. +[665.44 --> 667.44] So TipJar's are going to help game streamers a lot. +[667.44 --> 670.44] And 60fps is going to help game streamers a lot. +[670.44 --> 675.44] So I find it actually kind of surprising that both these things are landing when traditionally they didn't really seem to care about game streamers. +[675.44 --> 682.44] It's actually kind of refreshing to see YouTube bend to the will of the community for a change. +[682.44 --> 686.44] Instead of just marching off in a direction and doing whatever the heck it is that they want. +[686.44 --> 688.44] Google Plus integration. +[688.44 --> 689.44] Screw you. +[689.44 --> 692.44] And then just expecting everyone to sort of fall in line. +[692.44 --> 697.44] I mean we want higher quality content and we want this and we want that. +[697.44 --> 701.44] It's like guys that's great but people are not watching that. +[701.44 --> 704.44] They're watching PewDiePie. +[704.44 --> 706.44] Do whatever it is. +[706.44 --> 713.44] Speaking of PewDiePie, I actually was this close to retweeting one of his tweets for the first time ever. +[713.44 --> 718.44] I do follow him on Twitter and I agreed with this so hard. +[718.44 --> 721.44] And I was just like Google, what are you doing? +[721.44 --> 723.44] TwitchPlaysPokemon is in our chat again. +[723.44 --> 724.44] Oh lol. +[724.44 --> 725.44] That's so cool. +[725.44 --> 727.44] I saw him in last week too. +[727.44 --> 729.44] I was like what the hell? +[729.44 --> 732.44] Alright, so I'm going to screen share with you guys for a second here. +[732.44 --> 733.44] Check this out. +[733.44 --> 736.44] So in the old days I would click on my name and I would go to video manager. +[736.44 --> 739.44] You can see that that's still working on this page for some reason. +[739.44 --> 740.44] It must be a really old one. +[740.44 --> 741.44] They changed it today. +[741.44 --> 742.44] Yeah, there we go. +[742.44 --> 744.44] So my name is now gone. +[744.44 --> 745.44] This is great. +[745.44 --> 746.44] I can show the before and after. +[746.44 --> 747.44] My name is now gone. +[747.44 --> 749.44] Now I get to click on this. +[749.44 --> 751.44] I get to click on Creator Studio. +[751.44 --> 754.44] Wait around for that to load it slow ass. +[754.44 --> 760.44] And then I get to go way over here and click on video manager in order to manage my videos. +[760.44 --> 767.44] Which is where I spend 99% of my time when I am logged into my YouTube channel. +[767.44 --> 771.44] YouTube seems to be trying to pay attention to the needs of creators. +[771.44 --> 776.44] They're finally giving us a dedicated YouTube creator app which will allow us to manage things. +[776.44 --> 777.44] That's actually pretty cool. +[777.44 --> 778.44] That's pretty cool. +[778.44 --> 781.44] Although honestly, there's not that much more that I needed to do. +[781.44 --> 783.44] They could have just fixed, you know, broken. +[783.44 --> 786.44] Like, outright broken stuff. +[786.44 --> 788.44] Like, here's a couple of examples. +[788.44 --> 794.44] When you're loading comments, it just stops working after a while and then you can't restore it. +[794.44 --> 798.44] Other than by reloading the page and then scrolling back to that point again. +[798.44 --> 801.44] You can't see the most recent comments first. +[801.44 --> 813.44] And then the other one that was just broken as all heck is when I would try to reply to a comment, I think it is, and then go back, it would reload the comments and I'd have to start over again at the top. +[813.44 --> 817.44] Like, you wonder why YouTubers aren't interacting with their audience as much. +[817.44 --> 820.44] Like, you're making it as difficult as possible for us. +[820.44 --> 822.44] Oh my God. +[822.44 --> 825.44] It's, it's, it's, the, the comment system as a whole is ridiculous. +[825.44 --> 828.44] I, I watched a video the other day that was uploaded that day. +[828.44 --> 829.44] This was like a day or two ago. +[829.44 --> 831.44] But for some reason it had the old comment system. +[831.44 --> 832.44] Yeah. +[832.44 --> 833.44] And it was so refreshing. +[833.44 --> 835.44] It's so much better. +[835.44 --> 836.44] I'm gonna be honest with you. +[836.44 --> 837.44] I couldn't tell the difference. +[837.44 --> 838.44] Really? +[838.44 --> 839.44] Yeah. +[839.44 --> 840.44] I had, there was a video recently. +[840.44 --> 841.44] I noticed immediately. +[841.44 --> 850.44] It was a funk commercial that we did and I was reading through the comments and everyone was freaking out about how it was the old comments and I actually couldn't remember the difference between them anymore. +[850.44 --> 852.44] The reply button's there on everything. +[852.44 --> 853.44] Oh. +[853.44 --> 854.44] And honestly it looked cleaner. +[854.44 --> 857.44] It's mostly, mostly there are reply buttons on everything now. +[857.44 --> 860.44] Like people have basically just kind of accepted it, you know. +[860.44 --> 861.44] I don't know. +[861.44 --> 862.44] Drop trow and... +[862.44 --> 863.44] I still have problems. +[863.44 --> 868.44] I'll read through the comments and someone will ask a question directed at me and I try to reply and I'm like, this is not possible. +[868.44 --> 870.44] That still happens to this day. +[870.44 --> 875.44] My favorite is that, well, but there are issues with the old comment system that I think people forget. +[875.44 --> 881.44] In the old comment system, someone could have contact lock on and there would still be a reply button. +[881.44 --> 888.44] So you'd click reply, you'd type up a nice long reply to them, you'd click it, it would go away and it would tell you this person has contact lock on. +[888.44 --> 890.44] They did not receive your message. +[890.44 --> 891.44] I actually never ran into that. +[891.44 --> 892.44] That's a lot worse. +[892.44 --> 893.44] That's like a hundred times worse. +[893.44 --> 900.44] At least I don't have to waste my time trying to reply to people who ask me questions that don't have a reply button on their comments. +[900.44 --> 902.44] I can see up front, ha ha! +[902.44 --> 905.44] I don't have to talk to you because you didn't do a thing. +[905.44 --> 906.44] Yeah. +[906.44 --> 907.44] So at least there's that. +[907.44 --> 908.44] I don't know. +[908.44 --> 909.44] Alright. +[909.44 --> 913.44] I think I ran Twitch Plays Pokemon off because the chat freaked out. +[913.44 --> 914.44] Ha ha ha! +[914.44 --> 916.44] Way to go, smart guy. +[916.44 --> 917.44] My bad! +[917.44 --> 920.44] We actually, we had someone cool in our chat for the first time ever. +[920.44 --> 921.44] I ran him away. +[921.44 --> 923.44] I mean the rest of you are cool too. +[923.44 --> 926.44] But like, someone like crazy famous on Twitch cool. +[926.44 --> 929.44] Well when, when my brother and I were streaming we had Day9 come in. +[929.44 --> 930.44] Seriously? +[930.44 --> 931.44] Yeah. +[931.44 --> 939.44] I think myself or my brother, I don't remember which one, was wearing a Day9 shirt and after his stream ended he went to the homepage and saw us homepage and he was like, what? +[939.44 --> 941.44] That's why he came into the chat and was like, hello? +[941.44 --> 942.44] Oh he's still here! +[942.44 --> 943.44] Still here! +[943.44 --> 944.44] Yay! +[944.44 --> 945.44] Anyways. +[945.44 --> 952.44] Alright, so our, you know it's funny cause my issue on Firefox is that the forum keeps signing me out. +[952.44 --> 955.44] My issue in Chrome is it keeps signing me back in. +[955.44 --> 958.44] When I sign out. +[958.44 --> 959.44] Stop it! +[959.44 --> 960.44] It's like no! +[960.44 --> 962.44] You must have your proper account for this. +[962.44 --> 963.44] Listen to me! +[963.44 --> 972.44] Alright, so this was originally posted by TwistedDictator on the forum and this is Ubisoft, the original article is from GameSpot. +[972.44 --> 979.44] This is Ubisoft coming out and saying, well DRM can't stop piracy. +[979.44 --> 981.44] Actually this article is fantastic. +[981.44 --> 982.44] It's so ridiculous. +[982.44 --> 984.44] It's full of all the win. +[984.44 --> 994.44] Okay, so, VP of Digital Publishing from Ubisoft says, I don't want us in a position where we're punishing a paying player for what a pirate can get around. +[994.44 --> 995.44] So where you are right now. +[995.44 --> 998.44] That position that you're like very deeply rooted in. +[998.44 --> 999.44] You don't want to be there. +[999.44 --> 1006.44] Okay, so Witcher developer CD Projekt Red thinks that DRM is an ineffective way to stop piracy on the PC. +[1006.44 --> 1009.44] Them I actually believe because they've been reasonably friendly in the past. +[1009.44 --> 1019.44] However, Ubisoft is just like, what popular thing can we say that gamers will like so that they will stop hating us as hard as we deserve to be hated right now. +[1019.44 --> 1023.44] And so that, oh this is great. +[1023.44 --> 1024.44] This thing. +[1024.44 --> 1030.44] So what's key for us is making sure we're delivering an experience to paying players that is quality. +[1030.44 --> 1034.44] So the question becomes, what do we create as services or as benefits? +[1034.44 --> 1039.44] And the quality of the game that will just have people want to pay for it. +[1039.44 --> 1049.44] And I'm just kind of sitting here going, blah blah blah, so okay the more services there are, the reality is, the more services there are in a game, well pirates don't get that stuff. +[1049.44 --> 1055.44] So when it's a good game and there's good services around it, you're incentivized to not pirate the game to get the full experience. +[1055.44 --> 1056.44] This is all true. +[1056.44 --> 1067.44] It's just that Ubisoft, it's not like they actually said, well here's an upcoming game that we're going to go, you know, Steam DRM only or we're going to go... +[1067.44 --> 1068.44] Zero actionable items. +[1068.44 --> 1070.44] Yeah, there's nothing. +[1070.44 --> 1071.44] There's nada. +[1071.44 --> 1077.44] Microsoft might as well, you know, publish an open letter about how they're committed to PC gamers. +[1077.44 --> 1082.44] For all the emptiness of this statement that has nothing to do with anything. +[1082.44 --> 1084.44] Oh my god. +[1084.44 --> 1086.44] I mean, it's not like I agree with the pirates. +[1086.44 --> 1089.44] I mean, this is interesting. +[1089.44 --> 1097.44] There was a claim that Bethesda's recently released, Wolfenstein the New Order was pirated over a hundred thousand times in the first week. +[1097.44 --> 1105.44] And obviously you can't say, oh well then they lost whatever, sixty times a hundred, so what if sixty million dollars in revenue? +[1105.44 --> 1107.44] Whatever that works out to. +[1107.44 --> 1110.44] They lost six million dollars worth of revenue because of pirates. +[1110.44 --> 1112.44] You can't really do the math that way. +[1112.44 --> 1113.44] But... +[1113.44 --> 1115.44] You can't do the math that way at all. +[1115.44 --> 1117.44] We have to agree that it is a problem. +[1117.44 --> 1132.44] And I don't agree with the typical, you know, quite frankly stupid argument that, you know, piracy doesn't hurt because it's, you know, basically like if they deserved my money, you know, after I... +[1132.44 --> 1135.44] If I played it, okay, here, this guy. +[1135.44 --> 1137.44] This guy basically made me pretty mad. +[1137.44 --> 1138.44] Russian takeout. +[1138.44 --> 1139.44] Okay? +[1139.44 --> 1140.44] Uh... +[1140.44 --> 1141.44] Is it this? +[1141.44 --> 1142.44] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1142.44 --> 1145.44] So this guy is like, well people buy good or great games. +[1145.44 --> 1151.44] The problem is, when you have a game with a five hour single player and lousy multiplayer, how do you justify sixty bucks for it? +[1151.44 --> 1153.44] Piracy helps the individual to test the game. +[1153.44 --> 1159.44] I downloaded ten to twenty games this year and purchased the three to four that let me play for at least a few weeks. +[1159.44 --> 1163.44] And I'm kind of sitting here going, well, no. +[1163.44 --> 1167.44] Because if you want to have the experience, you should pay for it. +[1167.44 --> 1171.44] If the experience wasn't good enough to have, then you don't have to buy it. +[1171.44 --> 1173.44] And not every game costs sixty dollars. +[1173.44 --> 1176.44] Wait like three weeks and it'll probably be thirty. +[1176.44 --> 1178.44] Transistor, like, just came out. +[1178.44 --> 1180.44] It's already twenty-five percent off on Steam sale. +[1180.44 --> 1181.44] Exactly. +[1181.44 --> 1184.44] So if you don't think something is worth the cost of the mission at the beginning... +[1184.44 --> 1186.44] And I was happy to pay a hundred percent. +[1186.44 --> 1188.44] Then just wait a little while. +[1188.44 --> 1190.44] And if you're not willing to wait, well then I'm sorry. +[1190.44 --> 1191.44] I guess you get to pay. +[1191.44 --> 1197.44] And you can't just say, oh, well if something can't be reused a hundred times, then it's not worth buying. +[1197.44 --> 1200.44] I mean by that logic, do you refuse to buy condoms? +[1200.44 --> 1203.44] Or food? +[1203.44 --> 1208.44] It's basically the same thing. It seriously is. +[1208.44 --> 1209.44] No, I know. I was just trying to think. +[1209.44 --> 1211.44] Something that isn't reusable over and over again. +[1211.44 --> 1213.44] Dogs try to make food reusable. +[1213.44 --> 1215.44] Dogs. Oh, that's gross. +[1215.44 --> 1216.44] That's gross. +[1216.44 --> 1219.44] You know my old pony when I was a kid. +[1219.44 --> 1220.44] Oh no. +[1220.44 --> 1228.44] He would basically like, if we imagine that this is the pony, the crap would come out this end, he would turn himself a hundred maybe degrees. +[1228.44 --> 1229.44] No. +[1229.44 --> 1230.44] Yep. +[1230.44 --> 1231.44] You know how that story is. +[1231.44 --> 1232.44] Not good. +[1232.44 --> 1233.44] I don't know. +[1233.44 --> 1235.44] Like, especially with how Steam works nowadays. +[1235.44 --> 1238.44] We were talking about the Steam sale last time on the show. +[1238.44 --> 1243.44] About how it's just like, yeah, all this stuff has pretty much been on sale for these prices already. +[1243.44 --> 1245.44] Like, not a ton of them were super amazing. +[1245.44 --> 1248.44] That's, that's because everything gets discounted so hard. +[1248.44 --> 1250.44] Just wait like three days. +[1250.44 --> 1251.44] I fear for Twitch chat. +[1251.44 --> 1252.44] What? +[1252.44 --> 1253.44] You can't reuse condoms? +[1253.44 --> 1254.44] Twitch chat. +[1254.44 --> 1255.44] Twitch chat. +[1255.44 --> 1259.44] I mean, I guess theoretically you could. +[1259.44 --> 1264.44] It's, but the effectiveness. +[1264.44 --> 1265.44] Well, I mean. +[1265.44 --> 1268.44] It already has a pretty scary effectiveness. +[1268.44 --> 1271.44] 99% is not that good. +[1271.44 --> 1272.44] That's true. +[1272.44 --> 1274.44] That's still one out of a hundred times. +[1274.44 --> 1275.44] Which is still horrible. +[1275.44 --> 1281.44] The funny thing about the 99% effectiveness is that I'm not 100% sure how you calculate that. +[1281.44 --> 1287.44] Is it 99% of the time you have sex, you won't cause a pregnancy? +[1287.44 --> 1292.44] Or is it 99% of the times that you would have caused a pregnancy, it doesn't? +[1292.44 --> 1293.44] Cause it's hard to see. +[1293.44 --> 1297.44] Cause I mean, if it's 99% of the time, there won't be a pregnancy. +[1297.44 --> 1307.44] It's not even helping as much as we think because about 60% of the time to 70% of the time, the fertility is not an issue anyway and nothing would have happened. +[1307.44 --> 1308.44] So. +[1308.44 --> 1309.44] Hmm. +[1309.44 --> 1311.44] That's, that is actually kind of interesting. +[1311.44 --> 1312.44] Either way, it's still scary. +[1312.44 --> 1314.44] I feel like we've gotten off topic a little bit. +[1314.44 --> 1315.44] We have a little bit. +[1315.44 --> 1317.44] Maybe a lot of it. +[1317.44 --> 1319.44] Let's talk about Android TV. +[1319.44 --> 1321.44] We aren't even necessarily done with the previous topic. +[1321.44 --> 1322.44] Oh, okay. +[1322.44 --> 1323.44] Do you have something to say? +[1323.44 --> 1324.44] Cause I can just take a drink. +[1324.44 --> 1325.44] Go for it. +[1325.44 --> 1330.44] I found it interesting that the main thing that he was saying was services and benefits +[1330.44 --> 1331.44] that they want to add on to games. +[1331.44 --> 1335.44] If you've been noticing something they've been doing for a long time now is these, these +[1335.44 --> 1337.44] multiplayer aspects that they've been adding to games. +[1337.44 --> 1341.44] I don't know how many times you've talked to someone about that super awesome enthralling +[1341.44 --> 1345.44] Assassin's Creed multiplayer that you played with no one. +[1345.44 --> 1346.44] No one. +[1346.44 --> 1347.44] Cause no one really does that. +[1347.44 --> 1352.44] Um, or the awesome strapped on stapled together multiplayer that's in Watch Dogs. +[1352.44 --> 1357.44] I think they need to, they're, they're talking about this quality of the game and quality services +[1357.44 --> 1362.44] and benefits, but a lot of their quality services and benefits don't really seem thought out. +[1362.44 --> 1366.44] It seems like they built the entire game and then we're like, oh yeah, we need these things +[1366.44 --> 1367.44] that pirates don't get. +[1367.44 --> 1373.44] So we're going to make this weird, really, really bad ship mini game in Assassin's Creed +[1373.44 --> 1378.44] that this is the only way you can get certain items and then we're going to put it in your ship +[1378.44 --> 1379.44] and everyone's going to hate it. +[1379.44 --> 1381.44] So, cool. +[1381.44 --> 1384.44] Like, I don't, make good ones. +[1384.44 --> 1386.44] Make interesting ways to work with your friends. +[1386.44 --> 1387.44] And I know they're working on it. +[1387.44 --> 1395.44] Like, uh, Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity have these co-op things where someone can enter your game +[1395.44 --> 1399.44] and then help you do like an open world thing, but they can't help you with storyline missions +[1399.44 --> 1400.44] and stuff. +[1400.44 --> 1404.44] And then, I don't really, that seems weird again. +[1404.44 --> 1405.44] So, I don't know. +[1405.44 --> 1408.44] Maybe work on that a little bit and then people might care. +[1408.44 --> 1410.44] But for now, they're probably just going to pirate your game. +[1410.44 --> 1412.44] I won't, but they probably will. +[1412.44 --> 1416.44] And I think it's funny that they brought, they're bringing all this to light right now. +[1416.44 --> 1417.44] Yeah, I know, right? +[1417.44 --> 1421.44] Because then everyone's going, oh yeah, I can just pirate all your stuff. +[1421.44 --> 1424.44] Did you see how many comments there were about that? +[1424.44 --> 1427.44] They're like, oh yeah, I was waiting for Watch Dogs and then now I'm just going to pirate it. +[1427.44 --> 1430.44] It's like, wow, why did you, wow. +[1430.44 --> 1431.44] Not good timing. +[1431.44 --> 1437.44] I wonder if piracy rates would go down if they just stopped talking about the entire rate. +[1437.44 --> 1438.44] They just shut up. +[1438.44 --> 1440.44] There's an interesting thought. +[1440.44 --> 1447.44] They need to shut up, put their heads down and work on stuff and make really good releases for Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. +[1447.44 --> 1448.44] What's the upcoming Assassin's Creed? Unity? +[1448.44 --> 1449.44] Unity. +[1449.44 --> 1450.44] Yeah, okay. +[1450.44 --> 1453.44] Let's go ahead and see if we can see how much of the game is. +[1453.44 --> 1454.44] Sure. +[1454.44 --> 1455.44] That could be good. +[1455.44 --> 1456.44] It could. +[1456.44 --> 1457.44] Who knows? +[1457.44 --> 1461.44] Hopefully they don't make the PC version look exactly the same as the console version. +[1461.44 --> 1463.44] Oh, there was another Ubisoft thing. +[1463.44 --> 1469.44] They were saying why it's challenging to have the PC version come out at the same time as the console version. +[1469.44 --> 1470.44] And something blah, blah, blah. +[1470.44 --> 1472.44] Because your higher ups in your company make them look the same. +[1472.44 --> 1473.44] Yeah. +[1473.44 --> 1475.44] Anyway, here we go. +[1475.44 --> 1477.44] Android TV. +[1477.44 --> 1480.44] So it looks like Google, Google I.O. +[1480.44 --> 1482.44] They actually had a bunch of stuff they were talking about. +[1482.44 --> 1488.44] They showed off the upcoming Android L, whatever it's going to be, Licorice, Lollipop, Ludacris. +[1488.44 --> 1489.44] Ludacris. +[1489.44 --> 1490.44] Keeping with our rap theme. +[1490.44 --> 1497.44] I hope Asus wants to do laptop integrations again with the new one. +[1497.44 --> 1498.44] No. +[1498.44 --> 1499.44] Because it ends with JK. +[1499.44 --> 1500.44] Aww. +[1500.44 --> 1503.44] And I will just never stop. +[1503.44 --> 1504.44] All the terrible jokes. +[1504.44 --> 1506.44] No, I don't want to talk about that. +[1506.44 --> 1507.44] Anyway. +[1507.44 --> 1508.44] It weighs a lot. +[1508.44 --> 1509.44] JK, it's light. +[1509.44 --> 1511.44] So they showed off a bunch of really cool stuff. +[1511.44 --> 1512.44] They showed off some really pointless stuff. +[1512.44 --> 1517.44] They're moving to a more circular sort of design language now, which to me is kind of like, +[1517.44 --> 1518.44] Oh, that's great. +[1518.44 --> 1522.44] I'll put that on my circular phone that I don't have. +[1522.44 --> 1527.44] I guess if we, if we, if they want, if they want Android phones to stop looking like iPhones, +[1527.44 --> 1529.44] so all these lawsuits can just go away. +[1529.44 --> 1531.44] It's like discus things. +[1531.44 --> 1532.44] Yeah. +[1532.44 --> 1536.44] This is, this is the Samsung Galaxy Milky Way. +[1536.44 --> 1539.44] It's like, it's like this shape. +[1539.44 --> 1540.44] That would be amazing. +[1540.44 --> 1545.44] With like a sphere and it looked like a curved screen, curve screen sphere in the middle. +[1545.44 --> 1546.44] Yeah. +[1546.44 --> 1551.44] Like, and that comes out the back, you know, the LG, like, you know, orb flex. +[1551.44 --> 1552.44] The orb flex. +[1552.44 --> 1556.44] It doubles as a discus. +[1556.44 --> 1557.44] Throw it to your friend. +[1557.44 --> 1559.44] And the built in accelerometer. +[1559.44 --> 1560.44] It could have amazing speakers. +[1560.44 --> 1564.44] The built in accelerometer will tell you how fast it flew. +[1564.44 --> 1569.44] And when, and when your friend doesn't catch it, it'll say, uh oh. +[1569.44 --> 1570.44] No. +[1570.44 --> 1571.44] Well it falls. +[1571.44 --> 1574.44] And you'll be able to hear it because it has a speaker the size of the entire back. +[1574.44 --> 1576.44] Yeah, all these smart features. +[1576.44 --> 1577.44] The Samsung Shruta. +[1577.44 --> 1578.44] No, wrong. +[1578.44 --> 1580.44] The speaker should not be the size of the back. +[1580.44 --> 1586.44] I've been working on my LG G3 review as well as my Surface 3 Pro review. +[1586.44 --> 1590.44] And they both have rear mounted speakers. +[1590.44 --> 1592.44] Which is still wrong in this day and age. +[1592.44 --> 1593.44] What if it's a discus thing? +[1594.44 --> 1595.44] It's still wrong. +[1596.44 --> 1598.44] It's still wrong and I still hate it. +[1598.44 --> 1602.44] So you want like a bezel around the front of the disc for a circular speaker there? +[1602.44 --> 1603.44] Yeah, bezel disc. +[1603.44 --> 1604.44] Yeah, bezel disc. +[1604.44 --> 1605.44] Bring it on. +[1605.44 --> 1608.44] Now with 30% more bezel. +[1608.44 --> 1609.44] New and approved. +[1609.44 --> 1610.44] Oh no. +[1610.44 --> 1611.44] Oh no. +[1611.44 --> 1612.44] Oh, not this again. +[1612.44 --> 1615.44] Coming soon, Android TV. +[1615.44 --> 1617.44] Now with 30% more TV. +[1617.44 --> 1620.44] Actually that might be applicable. +[1620.44 --> 1622.44] This whole Android TV thing. +[1622.44 --> 1627.44] I'm kind of sitting here going like, how many times are you guys going to relaunch the same thing? +[1628.44 --> 1634.44] It's like, we really, really, really want Android to run on your TV. +[1634.44 --> 1639.44] The old, you know, little USB sticks or HDMI sticks. +[1639.44 --> 1640.44] Those aren't good enough anymore. +[1640.44 --> 1642.44] Chromecast isn't good enough anymore. +[1642.44 --> 1647.44] Standalone boxes like the Pivos player or that Asus thing. +[1647.44 --> 1648.44] What was it called? +[1648.44 --> 1649.44] I don't remember. +[1649.44 --> 1650.44] Something box. +[1650.44 --> 1651.44] I don't know. +[1651.44 --> 1652.44] I didn't care then. +[1652.44 --> 1656.44] All these, all these Google operating system things. +[1656.44 --> 1658.44] No, we're doing much better now. +[1658.44 --> 1662.44] We're just doing regular Android this time, but with a different skin over top. +[1662.44 --> 1663.44] Yay. +[1663.44 --> 1667.44] So it's XBMC, but like Android or something. +[1667.44 --> 1669.44] And there's a world of content in games. +[1669.44 --> 1676.44] There's actually not too much detail about it right now, but you can get Batman Begins, Man of Steel, the Lego movie, and The Hobbit, Desolation of Smaug. +[1676.44 --> 1685.44] If you wanted to watch one good movie and one really good movie and two slightly less than good movies. +[1685.44 --> 1686.44] Oscar nominated. +[1686.44 --> 1690.44] There's going to be so much infighting on what movies you're talking about. +[1690.44 --> 1700.44] They're adding voice control, which I guess is interesting if you didn't already have a Chromecast and an Android phone and this functionality seems like it could have just as easily happened that way. +[1700.44 --> 1708.44] The one place where I see this really being valuable is in terms of more power hungry types of applications. +[1708.44 --> 1713.44] So Nvidia actually on their own blog is talking about this as well. +[1713.44 --> 1715.44] They are saying they want the K1. +[1715.44 --> 1717.44] So that's their upcoming chip. +[1717.44 --> 1718.44] Of course they do. +[1718.44 --> 1732.44] They want the K1 to be the first validated chip for Android TV, which could be interesting because we'd be looking at both a powerful local gaming experience as well as a streaming experience with, you know, Netflix and all that other stuff. +[1732.44 --> 1743.44] And having the ability to stream from the cloud or view things and play back things and game locally, it seems like I guess it'll be somewhat valuable. +[1743.44 --> 1750.44] I just, I don't see it as that different from so many other things that are out there. +[1750.44 --> 1753.44] I mean, you look at something like OUYA. +[1753.44 --> 1756.44] I mean, is this really different from OUYA with a skin on it? +[1756.44 --> 1758.44] Is it? +[1758.44 --> 1760.44] Is it? +[1760.44 --> 1761.44] Skins a lot though. +[1761.44 --> 1763.44] Skins user experience. +[1763.44 --> 1766.44] What do you complain about a lot with phones? +[1766.44 --> 1767.44] Yes. +[1767.44 --> 1768.44] Okay. +[1768.44 --> 1769.44] The skin is important. +[1769.44 --> 1771.44] I'm just saying, did we need a dedicated... +[1771.44 --> 1773.44] I like my Chromecast. +[1773.44 --> 1777.44] I see no real reason to change from my Chromecast. +[1777.44 --> 1778.44] Right. +[1778.44 --> 1780.44] Well, Chromecast latency isn't anything special. +[1780.44 --> 1781.44] So there's that. +[1781.44 --> 1783.44] If you wanted to game on your big screen... +[1783.44 --> 1786.44] I'm not going to play Android games on the big screen. +[1786.44 --> 1787.44] No, you aren't. +[1788.44 --> 1790.44] But this is NVIDIA we're talking about. +[1790.44 --> 1793.44] So if we could see integration with their GameStream technology, like... +[1793.44 --> 1794.44] That could be cool. +[1794.44 --> 1795.44] The way I'd like to see NVIDIA go... +[1795.44 --> 1796.44] But then I have a shield. +[1796.44 --> 1797.44] Right. +[1797.44 --> 1804.44] But what you don't have a way to do right now is get a low latency HDMI connection from your shield to your TV. +[1804.44 --> 1805.44] Okay. +[1805.44 --> 1806.44] So that could be integrated. +[1806.44 --> 1807.44] You could have a wireless controller. +[1807.44 --> 1809.44] Or you could use your shield as a wireless controller. +[1809.44 --> 1819.44] Like, the way I see NVIDIA going with this to make it really successful is have there be an experience just for having an NVIDIA chip in the device. +[1819.44 --> 1823.44] So they enable GameStream as long as there's an NVIDIA chip in your device. +[1823.44 --> 1829.44] Then, if you have a shield, then you enable second screen type things like what Nintendo's trying to do with Wii U. +[1829.44 --> 1830.44] Yeah. +[1830.44 --> 1835.44] Or with the ability to use your shield as a controller and then switch screens when you run away. +[1835.44 --> 1837.44] Just like Nintendo's trying to do with the Wii U. +[1837.44 --> 1838.44] But hopefully better than the Wii U. +[1838.44 --> 1841.44] Like, a lot of the stuff they do with the Wii U is pretty stupid. +[1841.44 --> 1844.44] Mario Kart 8 has sold 2 million copies. +[1844.44 --> 1845.44] Boom. +[1845.44 --> 1846.44] Which is un-freaking real. +[1846.44 --> 1848.44] Not to mention how many Wii U's they're selling now. +[1848.44 --> 1852.44] I think they're on track to sell more than PS4 and Xbox One. +[1852.44 --> 1853.44] More than Xbox One. +[1853.44 --> 1854.44] If that's still trending. +[1854.44 --> 1856.44] That was trending like that before we left for Highlander. +[1856.44 --> 1858.44] So I'm not entirely sure anymore. +[1858.44 --> 1859.44] Freaking badass. +[1859.44 --> 1866.44] But, what I do have to say about Mario Kart 8 and the Wii U is that the second screen is not very useful. +[1866.44 --> 1867.44] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1867.44 --> 1868.44] It's dumb. +[1868.44 --> 1870.44] You can make it a mini-map but then like it's in your hands. +[1870.44 --> 1871.44] It's in your hands! +[1871.44 --> 1872.44] I don't... +[1872.44 --> 1878.44] Anyone who looks away from the screen for more than a split second in Mario Kart is like red shelled up the ass. +[1878.44 --> 1879.44] Yeah. +[1879.44 --> 1880.44] So, like no. +[1880.44 --> 1881.44] I don't know. +[1881.44 --> 1886.44] But then I don't mind that controller for it either because if you try to use the motion controls for it, it's a lot better than a Wiimote. +[1886.44 --> 1887.44] Way better than a Wiimote. +[1887.44 --> 1888.44] Yeah. +[1888.44 --> 1892.44] And then you can just not use the motion controls then it's a really good controller for it anyway. +[1892.44 --> 1893.44] So, I get it. +[1893.44 --> 1899.44] Yeah, the second screen doesn't work for that game but I don't think they need the second screen to be amazing for every single game. +[1899.44 --> 1900.44] Yeah, that's true. +[1900.44 --> 1903.44] So there's a couple more things for Android TV. +[1903.44 --> 1906.44] It's so blah blah blah, clean interface. +[1906.44 --> 1908.44] Allows multiplayer gaming with people on Android tablets. +[1908.44 --> 1912.44] When was the last time you played a multiplayer game over Android with someone? +[1912.44 --> 1914.44] This is one of the really big problems with Android gaming. +[1914.44 --> 1920.44] Is there like here's a new platform that you can take these games which are not made for this platform and play them on. +[1920.44 --> 1922.44] And it's like, no. +[1923.44 --> 1924.44] I don't want to do that. +[1924.44 --> 1928.44] Yeah, I mean it's the same issue that PC gamers have. +[1928.44 --> 1932.44] Nobody makes good co-op games for Android. +[1932.44 --> 1933.44] It's like what? +[1933.44 --> 1934.44] Like what? +[1934.44 --> 1935.44] And yeah, okay. +[1935.44 --> 1936.44] Okay, Twitch chat. +[1936.44 --> 1938.44] You're gonna have like four examples. +[1938.44 --> 1939.44] I don't care. +[1939.44 --> 1940.44] It's not really my point. +[1940.44 --> 1942.44] My point is that it's not a focus. +[1942.44 --> 1945.44] Android games are focused on this experience. +[1945.44 --> 1949.44] PC gaming co-op is starting to come back a little bit. +[1949.44 --> 1950.44] Not enough. +[1950.44 --> 1951.44] Not enough. +[1951.44 --> 1952.44] Not enough. +[1952.44 --> 1953.44] I'll tell you what. +[1953.44 --> 1960.44] When Microsoft releases, re-releases that Halo package for the PC and it includes Halo 1 campaign co-op. +[1960.44 --> 1961.44] Oh God. +[1961.44 --> 1967.44] Then A, you won't see me on WAN show because I'll be too busy playing Halo campaign co-op. +[1967.44 --> 1970.44] And B, I will believe that something's changing. +[1970.44 --> 1974.44] My dad and I went through and beat that campaign on every possible difficulty. +[1974.44 --> 1978.44] Not because we couldn't beat it on Legendary yet, just because we were bored. +[1978.44 --> 1981.44] Like I think we literally, I think we beat it on Legendary and then like went back and beat it on the other ones. +[1981.44 --> 1984.44] Cause remember you'd get the different shields at the bottom of the level selector? +[1984.44 --> 1985.44] Yep. +[1985.44 --> 1986.44] So we got all of them. +[1986.44 --> 1987.44] Cause we were just like, this is cool. +[1987.44 --> 1988.44] Cause why not? +[1988.44 --> 1990.44] And it was a really good game to co-op. +[1990.44 --> 1991.44] The last mission, ah, whatever. +[1991.44 --> 1994.44] Everyone's like, trying, trying, trying. +[1994.44 --> 1995.44] Yeah. +[1995.44 --> 1998.44] It's like one game, smart ass. +[1998.44 --> 2000.44] And we both love it and we have a video review. +[2000.44 --> 2003.44] And we finished it and I played it with my wife and that was great. +[2003.44 --> 2004.44] And she was like, oh, that was fun. +[2004.44 --> 2007.44] We haven't played games together in a long time. +[2007.44 --> 2009.44] And I was like, yeah, that was fun. +[2009.44 --> 2010.44] That was great. +[2010.44 --> 2012.44] Um, and she was like, yeah, what other games can we play? +[2012.44 --> 2013.44] I'm like, none. +[2013.44 --> 2019.44] Portal 2 for like the, not as good as the single player co-op that it has. +[2019.44 --> 2025.44] Actually, the only game that we found to, uh, to play together recently is this one. +[2025.44 --> 2028.44] It's actually a fantastic game and everyone should play it. +[2028.44 --> 2030.44] It's, uh, it's free for the basic version. +[2030.44 --> 2033.44] And if it ever manages to launch, then I'd love to show it to you guys. +[2033.44 --> 2035.44] But in the meantime, do you want to bring up the, uh, +[2035.44 --> 2039.44] C girl in the chat said Android TV equals every smart TV ever. +[2039.44 --> 2041.44] Except probably a lot better. +[2041.44 --> 2042.44] A lot better. +[2042.44 --> 2043.44] Smart TVs are dumb. +[2043.44 --> 2044.44] And they're just terrible. +[2044.44 --> 2045.44] They suck. +[2045.44 --> 2047.44] Just made of so much terrible. +[2047.44 --> 2055.44] And oh man, that's another thing that's been driving me crazy about how to address it with the, uh, with the LG G3. +[2055.44 --> 2063.44] So the G3 has one of the most terrifying end user license agreements that I've ever seen. +[2063.44 --> 2069.44] And just with the recent thing that came out about their smart TVs and how if you don't agree to it, +[2069.44 --> 2076.44] they just downgrade you to a dumb TV, it made me really uncomfortable to have like five check boxes to tick off, +[2076.44 --> 2082.44] including all this stuff about personal information sharing, just to use my phone. +[2082.44 --> 2086.44] This is why people, more than one person asked me on Twitter if I would recommend getting a G3 +[2086.44 --> 2087.44] because of how much I like the G2. +[2087.44 --> 2089.44] This was before I even saw the G3, so it wasn't really fair. +[2089.44 --> 2093.44] But either way I said no because of the TV thing. +[2093.44 --> 2094.44] It's your phone. +[2094.44 --> 2097.44] There's going to be way more personal stuff on your phone than your TV. +[2097.44 --> 2100.44] And they're being really ultra creepy about it. +[2100.44 --> 2101.44] Yeah. +[2101.44 --> 2102.44] So I don't know, man. +[2102.44 --> 2103.44] Not a big fan. +[2103.44 --> 2104.44] Not a big fan. +[2104.44 --> 2107.44] Unfortunately, this game isn't launching. +[2107.44 --> 2108.44] What is it called? +[2108.44 --> 2110.44] It's called Pocket Tanks and it's badass. +[2110.44 --> 2117.44] So you can, they actually have either hot seat multiplayer or you can actually do LAN multiplayer. +[2117.44 --> 2118.44] Cool. +[2118.44 --> 2125.44] So my wife and I'll sit in bed with our laptops and like fire little rockets at each other with our tanks and stuff. +[2125.44 --> 2126.44] She's pretty good at it. +[2126.44 --> 2127.44] Is it like in tanks? +[2127.44 --> 2128.44] She's been kicking my ass lately. +[2128.44 --> 2131.44] Is it like old school tanks, but like new and improved? +[2131.44 --> 2132.44] It's not that new. +[2132.44 --> 2133.44] We've been playing it since we met. +[2133.44 --> 2134.44] Oh. +[2134.44 --> 2135.44] Nine years ago. +[2135.44 --> 2136.44] So, okay. +[2136.44 --> 2137.44] There you go. +[2137.44 --> 2138.44] Not new. +[2138.44 --> 2139.44] Not new at all. +[2139.44 --> 2140.44] Gotcha. +[2140.44 --> 2141.44] Okay. +[2141.44 --> 2143.44] I'm old and the things I do are old. +[2143.44 --> 2147.44] Along the lines of Android TV, this is interesting. +[2147.44 --> 2148.44] Razor's throwing... +[2148.44 --> 2150.44] Oh, come on. +[2150.44 --> 2151.44] Hello. +[2151.44 --> 2152.44] Technical difficulties. +[2152.44 --> 2155.44] Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo. +[2155.44 --> 2156.44] Thanks for that, Lee. +[2156.44 --> 2157.44] My awesome beatboxing. +[2157.44 --> 2160.44] That wasn't beatboxing even. +[2160.44 --> 2162.44] Is it just like making noises?

+[2288.44 --> 2289.44] Okay. +[2289.44 --> 2290.44] Okay. +[2290.44 --> 2291.44] It's matte black. +[2291.44 --> 2293.44] Also the logo is shiny. +[2293.44 --> 2296.44] The logo is gloss, so... +[2296.44 --> 2299.44] I get such a kick out of the press statement. +[2299.44 --> 2303.44] The microconsole can stream movies, music, and other apps for large screen entertainment +[2303.44 --> 2306.44] with an emphasis on gaming. +[2306.44 --> 2307.44] So it's... +[2307.44 --> 2308.44] Oh, oh, Google... +[2308.44 --> 2309.44] Hardcore gaming. +[2309.44 --> 2315.44] So it's Google Android TV, and it's got an Nvidia chip inside it, and... +[2315.44 --> 2320.44] Probably it'll have GameStream. +[2320.44 --> 2321.44] Good job, Razer. +[2321.44 --> 2326.44] So I think we just completely predicted exactly everything about this product. +[2326.44 --> 2329.44] I think that's how they're going to handle the hardcore gaming though, and I'm really +[2329.44 --> 2330.44] excited about that. +[2330.44 --> 2334.44] I think it makes as much sense as SteamOS. +[2334.44 --> 2339.44] Just in-home streaming, whether it's through Valve's solution or Nvidia's solution, is definitely +[2339.44 --> 2341.44] the future in my mind. +[2341.44 --> 2348.44] One thing I'm interested in is how much SteamOS might slow down Windows piracy. +[2348.44 --> 2349.44] Might. +[2349.44 --> 2351.44] Not at all. +[2351.44 --> 2352.44] No? +[2352.44 --> 2354.44] Okay, tell me this. +[2354.44 --> 2357.44] LibreOffice, do you still use it? +[2357.44 --> 2360.44] Uh, I didn't use LibreOffice. +[2360.44 --> 2362.44] OpenOffice, it's the same thing. +[2362.44 --> 2363.44] Oh, actually I do... +[2363.44 --> 2366.44] Never mind, I do use LibreOffice, and yes, I still do use it. +[2366.44 --> 2368.44] Do you use it if you have a choice? +[2368.44 --> 2369.44] Yes, actually. +[2369.44 --> 2370.44] Oh, alright. +[2370.44 --> 2371.44] Um, but in certain situations. +[2371.44 --> 2376.44] I use it on my test bench when viewing test results, because it can't... there's an option +[2376.44 --> 2377.44] that it can give you a preview window. +[2377.44 --> 2379.44] Okay, do you use it when you have serious work to do? +[2379.44 --> 2381.44] That's serious work to do! +[2381.44 --> 2382.44] That's like, like... +[2382.44 --> 2386.44] You know what I mean, and you're dodging the question. +[2386.44 --> 2389.44] Over and over again, I might add. +[2389.44 --> 2390.44] No, but we have legit copies of Office. +[2390.44 --> 2392.44] That's true, right. +[2392.44 --> 2394.44] So, okay, but... +[2394.44 --> 2395.44] Office 365, though. +[2395.44 --> 2396.44] I didn't pirate Office, though. +[2396.44 --> 2398.44] I'm using Office 365 now. +[2398.44 --> 2400.44] Honestly, for the price, it's a great value. +[2400.44 --> 2402.44] Subscription-based, I'm kinda sold on. +[2402.44 --> 2405.44] When I was in school and stuff, I just used OpenOffice. +[2405.44 --> 2408.44] Yeah, but in school, you got free copies of Office! +[2408.44 --> 2410.44] No, I mean, like, not... not that school. +[2410.44 --> 2411.44] Oh, okay, right. +[2411.44 --> 2412.44] Other school. +[2412.44 --> 2413.44] Yeah. +[2413.44 --> 2415.44] Not, like, piracy school. +[2415.44 --> 2416.44] No, I'm just kidding. +[2416.44 --> 2420.44] Through his program at school, he was able to get copies of Microsoft. +[2420.44 --> 2422.44] Yeah, because I was in a software development thing. +[2422.44 --> 2423.44] So you get the... yeah. +[2423.44 --> 2428.44] Anyway, Razer's thing is unnamed so far. +[2428.44 --> 2431.44] Interface will be managed by Android TV. +[2431.44 --> 2432.44] Expected this fall. +[2432.44 --> 2434.44] This is kinda funny. +[2434.44 --> 2438.44] Xorbot from the forum had a really great comment for the haters, saying, +[2438.44 --> 2441.44] OOYA and Mojo were commercial failures. +[2441.44 --> 2442.44] This will be too. +[2442.44 --> 2445.44] And then he responded to that, saying, +[2445.44 --> 2451.44] How many consoles were unsuccessful or moderately successful until the NES came along and made the formula work? +[2451.44 --> 2452.44] I thought that was a really good point. +[2452.44 --> 2456.44] I don't necessarily agree that Razer's console is gonna be the big winner here. +[2456.44 --> 2463.44] And I think it's probably gonna be some integration within TVs that is gonna finally gain traction. +[2463.44 --> 2464.44] Not smart TV. +[2464.44 --> 2466.44] I think it'll be more like what they're trying to do with cars. +[2466.44 --> 2467.44] Yes. +[2467.44 --> 2469.44] Apple and Google have been talking about that lately. +[2469.44 --> 2473.44] But replacing the craptastic job that they've been doing making their cars intelligent, +[2473.44 --> 2478.44] they'll be doing the same thing by replacing the craptastic job that every single TV manufacturer has done with smart TVs. +[2478.44 --> 2479.44] The problem with... +[2479.44 --> 2484.44] Okay, the problem here though is the difference between car manufacturers and TV makers. +[2484.44 --> 2488.44] Because car manufacturers have been through the worst of it. +[2488.44 --> 2492.44] They're like, okay, we suck. +[2492.44 --> 2494.44] We need outside help. +[2494.44 --> 2499.44] Someone please come tell us how to capture the minds and hearts of our customers again. +[2499.44 --> 2501.44] Planked! +[2501.44 --> 2509.44] Whereas TV makers are still living in like this castle of arrogance that we can do no wrong and... +[2509.44 --> 2510.44] $40,000 TV. +[2510.44 --> 2517.44] We're all gonna create our own freaking ridiculously stupid way of doing things that has nothing to do with anything else. +[2517.44 --> 2519.44] And this comes back to... +[2519.44 --> 2520.44] And it's not a TV. +[2520.44 --> 2521.44] It's the G3 again. +[2521.44 --> 2524.44] But this comes back to my G3 review. +[2524.44 --> 2526.44] I'm just gonna try and find my notes on it. +[2526.44 --> 2532.44] It's probably not gonna make it into my review because my review notes are five pages and my limit for myself is two pages. +[2532.44 --> 2533.44] So... +[2533.44 --> 2534.44] But this is great. +[2534.44 --> 2539.44] Share and connect under networks is like an LG proprietary sharing thing. +[2539.44 --> 2541.44] And I'm just like... +[2541.44 --> 2549.44] What I have in here is LG and Samsung need to pull their heads out of their asses and work with open standards on this kind of stuff. +[2549.44 --> 2555.44] I challenge anyone at LG or Samsung to come up with one time... +[2555.44 --> 2557.44] ONE TIME! +[2557.44 --> 2564.44] That some proprietary, stupid, only within one brand standard worked on a consumer product. +[2564.44 --> 2566.44] One time! +[2566.44 --> 2568.44] I bet you can't. +[2568.44 --> 2571.44] It works with professional grade stuff. +[2571.44 --> 2578.44] Sony gets away with it with professional grade stuff because professionals have the budget to go and invest in an entire ecosystem. +[2578.44 --> 2581.44] Whereas consumers buy things piecemeal. +[2581.44 --> 2584.44] I mean, think about how you buy things as a consumer. +[2584.44 --> 2585.44] Things other than food. +[2585.44 --> 2586.44] Let's talk about more expensive stuff. +[2586.44 --> 2589.44] Obviously you go buy food, you buy an entire meal. +[2589.44 --> 2592.44] So you go and you buy a hamburger, you buy some fries, and you buy something else. +[2592.44 --> 2594.44] And you expect all those things to go together reasonably well. +[2594.44 --> 2597.44] But let's say you go and you buy a house. +[2597.44 --> 2598.44] Linus doesn't cook one. +[2598.44 --> 2601.44] Actually, let's not talk about house. +[2601.44 --> 2603.44] Let's come up with something... +[2603.44 --> 2607.44] Something with a lot of pieces that kind of work together. +[2607.44 --> 2608.44] Okay. +[2608.44 --> 2609.44] Let's say you furnish a house. +[2609.44 --> 2610.44] There's a great example. +[2610.44 --> 2618.44] Do you go and buy all the same brand furniture just because there's a chance that it will operate together correctly? +[2618.44 --> 2624.44] Or do you buy what suits your taste and what's appropriate to each of the different things that you're trying to achieve? +[2624.44 --> 2626.44] That's how people buy things. +[2626.44 --> 2627.44] Consumers. +[2627.44 --> 2628.44] That's how consumers buy things. +[2628.44 --> 2634.44] And a lot of times, especially in the technology space, you might buy something and then three years later you have to buy something else. +[2634.44 --> 2639.44] And then even if you did buy within the same ecosystem, they're probably not going to work together anyways. +[2639.44 --> 2640.44] I know. +[2640.44 --> 2645.44] My favorite is the Galaxy Tab 10.1, the original one that didn't get support for All Share. +[2645.44 --> 2646.44] Yeah. +[2646.44 --> 2648.44] Whereas the cellular... +[2648.44 --> 2650.44] Everyone's saying they all buy IKEA furniture. +[2650.44 --> 2651.44] The cell... +[2651.44 --> 2652.44] Wrecked. +[2652.44 --> 2653.44] I get wrecked. +[2653.44 --> 2654.44] I get wrecked. +[2654.44 --> 2655.44] I get wrecked. +[2655.44 --> 2656.44] Oh, that's so true. +[2656.44 --> 2660.44] The cellular wireless version had it. +[2660.44 --> 2664.44] And there was like a firmware hack that the Samsung rep was telling me I could do. +[2664.44 --> 2665.44] And I'm just like, really? +[2665.44 --> 2667.44] Why don't you guys just enable this crap? +[2667.44 --> 2673.44] You're locking your own customers out of your own stinker proprietary thing that doesn't even work that well anyway. +[2673.44 --> 2674.44] Yeah. +[2674.44 --> 2683.44] And like, I actually don't know anyone that buys a new PC, laptop, phone, fridge, washing machine, dryer, TV... +[2683.44 --> 2684.44] And tablet. +[2684.44 --> 2686.44] ...tablet all at the same time. +[2686.44 --> 2687.44] On game console now. +[2687.44 --> 2688.44] On game console. +[2688.44 --> 2691.44] Like, what? +[2691.44 --> 2693.44] It's like, it just doesn't work that way. +[2693.44 --> 2694.44] No. +[2694.44 --> 2696.44] And no amount of trying to make it work that way... +[2696.44 --> 2697.44] Is going to make it work that way. +[2697.44 --> 2699.44] Is going to make it work that way. +[2699.44 --> 2700.44] Ugh. +[2700.44 --> 2703.44] Alright, we should probably do our sponsor spot here. +[2703.44 --> 2704.44] So, this is cool. +[2704.44 --> 2707.44] You guys, some of you anyway, are going to probably like this. +[2707.44 --> 2708.44] I thought it was pretty neat. +[2708.44 --> 2709.44] Stay on this page, I guess. +[2709.44 --> 2710.44] Save the pages. +[2710.44 --> 2711.44] Save the changes. +[2711.44 --> 2712.44] What? +[2712.44 --> 2713.44] Um, leave this page. +[2713.44 --> 2714.44] Here we go. +[2714.44 --> 2716.44] So, this is fun. +[2716.44 --> 2720.44] We actually had a really great live stream with Intel earlier this week. +[2720.44 --> 2722.44] I'm going to post it in the Twitch chat here. +[2722.44 --> 2728.44] And I'm going to go ahead, I'm going to throw up the lower third that we used for it. +[2728.44 --> 2734.44] So, it was hashtag Devils Canyon and Intel's new CPUs just launched. +[2734.44 --> 2743.44] And we actually had one of their product marketing engineers, his name's Darren Lynch, on the show to talk about behind the scenes. +[2743.44 --> 2744.44] Which is something... +[2744.44 --> 2745.44] So guys, go ahead. +[2745.44 --> 2746.44] Bookmark that. +[2746.44 --> 2747.44] Go watch it later. +[2747.44 --> 2758.44] It's only about an hour long and it's really, really informative because there's a ton of stuff about what goes on to bring a CPU to market that you don't even think about. +[2758.44 --> 2764.44] We were talking about all kinds of crazy options like having a liquid cooler in the box, having a gold plated IHS. +[2764.44 --> 2766.44] I mean, these are things they've considered. +[2766.44 --> 2772.44] And he talked about the reasons why they would be cool, the reasons why they just don't work in the real world. +[2772.44 --> 2774.44] Um, even things like changing the box. +[2774.44 --> 2776.44] He talks about the challenges involved in that. +[2776.44 --> 2780.44] And it might not sound that interesting right now, but it was. +[2780.44 --> 2785.44] Like, something like...remember when AMD did that tin box for the FX processors? +[2785.44 --> 2787.44] He kind of laughed when I brought it up. +[2787.44 --> 2793.44] Because he was like, yeah, it's funny you mention that because I can tell you exactly how much that box cost. +[2793.44 --> 2796.44] We ran out and looked at how much it would cost to source it. +[2796.44 --> 2801.44] In fact, we've done it several times, both before and after the competitor did it. +[2801.44 --> 2808.44] Just every time we just kind of looked at it and we went, you know, like we've looked at packaging for Extreme Editions that's like a column. +[2808.44 --> 2811.44] Like a clear column that has the CPU floating at the top. +[2811.44 --> 2812.44] That would be pretty cool. +[2812.44 --> 2815.44] And he's just like, but that package is going to cost $50. +[2815.44 --> 2818.44] So, I mean, do we take that out of our margin? +[2818.44 --> 2820.44] Do we charge the customer another $50? +[2820.44 --> 2823.44] Then you get customers complaining they're paying $50 for packaging. +[2823.44 --> 2825.44] And he's like, and frankly, I agree with them. +[2825.44 --> 2826.44] Yeah. +[2826.44 --> 2828.44] So that's why it just comes in this box. +[2828.44 --> 2837.44] And, uh, I, cause I, I, and it was funny because I didn't actually realize at the time that I had someone who had as much influence on the call. +[2837.44 --> 2843.44] Cause I was like, yeah, and what's up with Intel changing the Extreme Edition packages to blue instead of black? +[2843.44 --> 2846.44] And he's like, well, that was actually me who made that call. +[2846.44 --> 2848.44] Awkward. +[2848.44 --> 2849.44] Yeah. +[2849.44 --> 2850.44] Yeah. +[2850.44 --> 2856.44] So he was straight up responsible for some of the things that I've been whining about for the last few years. +[2856.44 --> 2862.44] And it was really interesting to get his, and he was really, yeah, he was really honest, which was really refreshing and really cool. +[2862.44 --> 2868.44] So guys, I'm going to link that one more time and you should definitely check it out because it was super educational. +[2868.44 --> 2870.44] And, uh, there you go. +[2870.44 --> 2871.44] All right. +[2871.44 --> 2873.44] So let's move on to our next sponsor today. +[2873.44 --> 2876.44] And that is a Dollar Shave Club. +[2876.44 --> 2879.44] If I could find, there it is. +[2879.44 --> 2880.44] Woo! +[2880.44 --> 2881.44] You arranged your arsenal of things. +[2881.44 --> 2882.44] All right. +[2882.44 --> 2886.44] So I have all the Dollar Shave Club stuff. +[2886.44 --> 2889.44] Now, here, you can hold these. +[2889.44 --> 2890.44] Thank you. +[2890.44 --> 2902.44] So basically guys, Dollar Shave Club, if you're not familiar with it already, is the fast, easy way to get high quality shaving and bathroom supplies delivered to your door. +[2902.44 --> 2915.44] And it's funny because I actually had someone joking on Twitter about why Dollar Shave Club would sponsor this guy when they could sponsor someone with, you know, a manly, awesome beard like Logan instead. +[2915.44 --> 2917.44] To which I have this to say. +[2917.44 --> 2922.44] Over the last few days, oh no, my screen sharing's not working anymore. +[2922.44 --> 2923.44] Oh, right. +[2923.44 --> 2925.44] I wanted to share my screen with you guys. +[2925.44 --> 2926.44] Wasn't that on the network? +[2926.44 --> 2928.44] Oh, no, but it could be. +[2928.44 --> 2929.44] Yes. +[2929.44 --> 2930.44] Okay. +[2930.44 --> 2933.44] I'll share this on the network and then I will. +[2933.44 --> 2935.44] You guys should have seen him on Highlander. +[2935.44 --> 2937.44] He tried to be a Highlander. +[2937.44 --> 2938.44] Yep. +[2938.44 --> 2939.44] I was like, I was. +[2939.44 --> 2940.44] He was grizzly. +[2940.44 --> 2941.44] I was, I was like, yeah, I'm gonna do this. +[2941.44 --> 2942.44] So people are like. +[2942.44 --> 2943.44] He was Linus Grizzly. +[2943.44 --> 2944.44] Yeah. +[2944.44 --> 2945.44] Linus can't even grow a beard. +[2945.44 --> 2948.44] Why does Dollar Shave Club, you know, sponsor this guy? +[2948.44 --> 2955.44] And the answer is because if they didn't, then it's possible that you would have to deal with this. +[2955.44 --> 2957.44] Oh, he's hideous. +[2957.44 --> 2963.44] That is what I look like if I have about four days of, of stubble. +[2963.44 --> 2964.44] It's disgusting. +[2964.44 --> 2965.44] It's horrible. +[2965.44 --> 2970.44] And thanks to Dollar Shave Club's high quality razors that you can get delivered to you once a month. +[2970.44 --> 2976.44] So you can use a fresh razor for a nice, clean and comfortable shave every single week. +[2976.44 --> 2978.44] You don't have to look at that. +[2978.44 --> 2979.44] Isn't it awful?

+[3383.44 --> 3385.44] I hardly recognized my own face. +[3385.44 --> 3386.44] Me too. +[3386.44 --> 3388.44] Like it was, it was pretty horrible. +[3388.44 --> 3392.44] And thank goodness I have, I have shaved now. +[3392.44 --> 3396.44] You know, what's funny is that reminds me of something that I thought of at the beginning +[3396.44 --> 3398.44] of the show to improve the show. +[3398.44 --> 3400.44] So I made you guys look at that, but check this out. +[3400.44 --> 3401.44] I came up with this brilliant idea. +[3401.44 --> 3402.44] Oh yeah. +[3402.44 --> 3403.44] Check this out. +[3403.44 --> 3404.44] The WAN show. +[3404.44 --> 3407.44] Now with 30% more handsome. +[3407.44 --> 3408.44] Sure. +[3408.44 --> 3411.44] And he never needed a co-host again. +[3411.44 --> 3415.44] See what I was trying to say is that he should at least try to find some way to delay +[3415.44 --> 3416.44] that video. +[3416.44 --> 3417.44] There's gotta be some way. +[3417.44 --> 3418.44] I would be surprised if you can do that. +[3418.44 --> 3419.44] I don't think so. +[3419.44 --> 3420.44] As long as we don't crash XSplit, you're okay to tinker with it. +[3420.44 --> 3421.44] Yeah, I know we're good. +[3421.44 --> 3422.44] I don't want to mess with it anymore. +[3422.44 --> 3424.44] But if you could have one side that was delayed a little bit so that it looked at least slightly, +[3424.44 --> 3426.44] like there was two different movements, that would be pretty cool. +[3426.44 --> 3427.44] Yeah. +[3427.44 --> 3428.44] I guess that would help a lot. +[3428.44 --> 3429.44] Yeah. +[3429.44 --> 3430.44] I guess that would help a lot. +[3430.44 --> 3431.44] Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and get rid of that. +[3431.44 --> 3432.44] I'm sorry you guys. +[3432.44 --> 3434.44] You could have like Linus and then make the other one like that weird inverted color thing +[3434.44 --> 3435.44] so it's like Linus and Hulk Linus. +[3435.44 --> 3436.44] I've put you guys through so much today. +[3436.44 --> 3438.44] All right, the original poster for the original poster for the original poster is a little bit +[3438.44 --> 3439.44] that's a little bit more. +[3439.44 --> 3440.44] I don't think so. +[3440.44 --> 3441.44] I don't think so. +[3441.44 --> 3442.44] As long as we don't crash XSplit, you're okay to tinker with it. +[3442.44 --> 3443.44] Yeah, I know we're good. +[3443.44 --> 3444.44] I don't want to mess with it anymore. +[3444.44 --> 3447.44] But if you could have one side that was delayed a little bit so that it looked at least slightly, +[3447.44 --> 3452.44] like Linus and then make the other one like that weird inverted color thing so it's like +[3452.44 --> 3453.44] Linus and Hulk Linus. +[3453.44 --> 3454.44] Yeah. +[3454.44 --> 3456.44] I've put you guys through so much today. +[3456.44 --> 3459.44] All right, the original poster for this one was Diff? +[3459.44 --> 3460.44] D-L-F? +[3460.44 --> 3461.44] I don't know. +[3461.44 --> 3462.44] Whatever. +[3462.44 --> 3465.44] So Forbes.com is the article that we're using to reference here and P.S. +[3465.44 --> 3468.44] Now prices have been leaked. +[3468.44 --> 3470.44] Someone told me to push you out of the way so it was double me. +[3470.44 --> 3472.44] Oh, for crying out loud. +[3472.44 --> 3476.44] It just keeps screwing up the screen region capture. +[3476.44 --> 3479.44] I think what I have to do is just do this. +[3479.44 --> 3480.44] There you go. +[3480.44 --> 3484.44] And then we could all look at Forbes' ad together and continue to the site. +[3484.44 --> 3485.44] Thanks, Forbes. +[3485.44 --> 3486.44] Thanks for that, dog. +[3486.44 --> 3488.44] All right, PlayStation Now. +[3488.44 --> 3491.44] A good idea with a bad plan, says the writer. +[3491.44 --> 3498.44] So pretty much we're looking at pricing anywhere from four to seven US dollars to rent a game +[3498.44 --> 3499.44] for a week. +[3499.44 --> 3504.44] You can rent for four hours, seven days, 30 days, or 90 days with some time periods unavailable +[3504.44 --> 3506.44] for some games. +[3506.44 --> 3510.44] There are a couple of issues with the way that they're handling it though. +[3510.44 --> 3513.44] So pricing's a little bit questionable. +[3513.44 --> 3518.44] With four hour chunks of time coming in at around, I think it's three to four dollars. +[3518.44 --> 3519.44] Yeah. +[3519.44 --> 3523.44] So you're paying near or about a dollar an hour to play the game. +[3523.44 --> 3529.44] Something that might be okay if you just want to try it before you buy. +[3529.44 --> 3532.44] But I mean another factor is that these are mostly older games. +[3532.44 --> 3537.44] And I'm kind of sitting here going like I could probably find one in a used bin and pay +[3537.44 --> 3542.44] like 15 bucks for it or 10 bucks or 20 bucks and own it forever. +[3542.44 --> 3544.44] Someone in the chat said, or just get the same price on a Steam sale. +[3544.44 --> 3547.44] And then, well remember this is PlayStation games. +[3547.44 --> 3549.44] So this is like their... +[3549.44 --> 3550.44] Yeah. +[3550.44 --> 3555.44] And then it's up to about $30 for a 90 day period. +[3555.44 --> 3560.44] And again, with an older game, you're looking at a situation where for 30 bucks you could +[3560.44 --> 3562.44] probably just own it forever and get a disc. +[3562.44 --> 3563.44] Yep. +[3563.44 --> 3566.44] I think the biggest problem here is not the idea. +[3566.44 --> 3571.44] I think the idea of renting games digitally is still fine. +[3571.44 --> 3572.44] Yep. +[3572.44 --> 3578.44] The Forbes article, right, the Forbes author criticizes this concept in general and says +[3578.44 --> 3581.44] something like a subscription based service would be much better. +[3581.44 --> 3585.44] But I suspect Sony's hands are pretty much tied on that one. +[3585.44 --> 3587.44] I don't think they'd be able to do it. +[3587.44 --> 3591.44] Well they, yeah, because right now they're leaving pricing up to the publisher. +[3591.44 --> 3592.44] And I think they'd have to. +[3592.44 --> 3593.44] And I think they would have to do that. +[3593.44 --> 3594.44] I mean it's much like Steam. +[3594.44 --> 3597.44] Valve doesn't set the pricing for a third party title. +[3597.44 --> 3598.44] Yeah. +[3598.44 --> 3602.44] So Valve can't just come in and say, okay, we're going to have a Steam subscription. +[3602.44 --> 3605.44] You pay 60 bucks a month and you can play any game on Steam because. +[3605.44 --> 3609.44] To do that, they'd have to set up like a Netflix-like service, which would be insanity. +[3609.44 --> 3613.44] How do you, how do you divvy up the funds according to what got watched? +[3613.44 --> 3616.44] Or maybe you do, or maybe you don't. +[3616.44 --> 3617.44] I don't know. +[3617.44 --> 3619.44] It seems like, it seems like we're asking for a lot. +[3619.44 --> 3624.44] And at least this is a step in the right direction in terms of digital distribution. +[3624.44 --> 3627.44] It's just, it's not quite there yet. +[3627.44 --> 3628.44] It's got to be cheaper. +[3628.44 --> 3632.44] Older games in particular probably shouldn't be very expensive. +[3632.44 --> 3644.44] One issue I have with sort of pay per use in general is that it's going to lead developers even more down that path where multiplayer is the only thing that matters. +[3644.44 --> 3647.44] Because they're going to be optimizing for play time. +[3647.44 --> 3648.44] Yeah. +[3648.44 --> 3653.44] Rather than necessarily compelling storytelling, which is something that does have a value. +[3653.44 --> 3654.44] Yeah. +[3654.44 --> 3659.44] Like, I know Transistor isn't really the longest game ever, but it ends when it should end. +[3659.44 --> 3663.44] Like, I feel like they, if they added things to it and they made it longer, it would have just been wasted time. +[3663.44 --> 3667.44] Have you played much Bravely Default yet? Speaking of games that don't end when they should end? +[3667.44 --> 3668.44] No, I haven't. +[3668.44 --> 3669.44] Okay. +[3669.44 --> 3670.44] Not much. I played a little bit. +[3670.44 --> 3674.44] You're driving me crazy because I don't want to spoil the game for you because there are parts of it that are good. +[3674.44 --> 3675.44] But... +[3675.44 --> 3676.44] I haven't had any time. +[3676.44 --> 3677.44] Yeah, I know. +[3677.44 --> 3681.44] And then like, on the plane back, which when I was intending to play it, I was just like... +[3681.44 --> 3686.44] No way that was happening. +[3686.44 --> 3689.44] I passed out so hard on the plane back from Highlander. +[3689.44 --> 3690.44] Me too. +[3690.44 --> 3692.44] Like, you'd be passed out on the floor in the airport... +[3692.44 --> 3693.44] Yeah, that's true. +[3693.44 --> 3694.44] ...before the plane. +[3694.44 --> 3695.44] We did do that thing. +[3695.44 --> 3701.44] Alright, so the OP for the first Android, and that is to say robot, not Android, the mobile operating system. +[3701.44 --> 3702.44] That gets real confusing. +[3702.44 --> 3703.44] Yeah, I know, right? +[3703.44 --> 3704.44] A newscaster. +[3704.44 --> 3711.44] This was posted by Top War Gamer in the forum, and this stuff is scary, man. +[3711.44 --> 3714.44] I'm gonna go ahead and load up the YouTube video here. +[3714.44 --> 3718.44] I apologize for this slightly less elegant than usual way of doing this. +[3718.44 --> 3719.44] Go ahead. +[3719.44 --> 3720.44] Go ahead. +[3720.44 --> 3721.44] Don't cut the whole screen. +[3721.44 --> 3723.44] We want you to see your taskbar. +[3723.44 --> 3725.44] Well, whatever, man. +[3725.44 --> 3726.44] I don't care. +[3726.44 --> 3729.44] So, screen share with Linus for go ahead and maximize that. +[3729.44 --> 3733.44] So, Japan unveils the world's first Android newscaster. +[3733.44 --> 3735.44] So, he hands her a piece of paper. +[3735.44 --> 3739.44] Apparently, the robot has perfect language skills and a sense of humor. +[3739.44 --> 3741.44] Man, that's creepy. +[3741.44 --> 3744.44] This guy is slightly less creepy. +[3744.44 --> 3745.44] There's certain parts. +[3745.44 --> 3747.44] Well, he's made, like, that's the guy that made the robot of himself. +[3747.44 --> 3749.44] That was actually even crazier than this. +[3749.44 --> 3756.44] There's certain times when it's like, like this chick, when she's sitting at certain points in time, and when it pans past the other girl. +[3756.44 --> 3759.44] Very specific points in time where it's very hard to tell. +[3759.44 --> 3762.44] Other than that, though, the movements, you can still tell. +[3762.44 --> 3765.44] That one, I think the other girl looks more realistic in my opinion. +[3765.44 --> 3766.44] Yeah, probably. +[3766.44 --> 3770.44] But, anyway, she's reading some news about an earthquake. +[3770.44 --> 3776.44] Obviously, a lot of this is programmed right now, and they're not able to just kind of come up with things on their own. +[3776.44 --> 3786.44] But, the objective is to keep improving this, and, yeah, I guess the future is going to be an interesting time and place. +[3786.44 --> 3792.44] This brings up a conversation that I actually brought up when we were at the airport, which is where everyone is using the automated terminals. +[3792.44 --> 3793.44] Yeah. +[3793.44 --> 3801.44] And, I noticed one of the big things that we got flack for on the show, not flack, but one of the big things that became a conversation when we've talked about automation on the show before, +[3801.44 --> 3808.44] is people have brought up that people need human interaction, and I see that being disproven everywhere. +[3808.44 --> 3817.44] The amount of times that I see people voluntarily go through the self-automated checkout instead of the person-driven checkout at stores is getting more and more and more. +[3817.44 --> 3821.44] And then, now at airports, it almost becomes frustrating to have to deal with people. +[3821.44 --> 3822.44] Yeah. +[3822.44 --> 3827.44] It's kind of annoying, because it's like, oh, I have to deal with this person who's probably going to be a jerk, +[3827.44 --> 3830.44] when I could have maybe just gotten through the terminal with no problem. +[3830.44 --> 3836.44] The flip side of that is that on both our flight to Denver and our flight back, the automated terminal- +[3836.44 --> 3838.44] They are the worst terminal systems ever. That's the problem. +[3838.44 --> 3845.44] The automated terminal didn't pick up my reservation on the way there, and then yours and Ed's reservations on the way back- +[3845.44 --> 3846.44] On the way back. +[3846.44 --> 3848.44] Because they thought we already checked in, which is really bad. +[3848.44 --> 3850.44] And we had to go talk to a person. +[3850.44 --> 3851.44] Yeah. +[3851.44 --> 3852.44] So, yeah. +[3852.44 --> 3857.44] They can make them better, though, but that's, that's, that's, I don't know about that whole required human interaction argument. +[3857.44 --> 3858.44] Flip side. +[3858.44 --> 3859.44] Okay. +[3859.44 --> 3860.44] Yeah. +[3860.44 --> 3864.44] So I'm going to get you to cover this one, because, um, you're the VR geek. +[3864.44 --> 3865.44] Yeah. +[3865.44 --> 3872.44] So, this project was originally thought of by French Googlers David Cause and Damien Henry, +[3872.44 --> 3878.44] in part of their 20% thing, which I thought was gone, but is apparently still here. +[3878.44 --> 3879.44] So that's cool. +[3879.44 --> 3886.44] So the 20% thing is where 20% of your time at Google has to be spent doing kind of your own independent projects. +[3886.44 --> 3893.44] And then, uh, people thought this thing was so freaking cool that they jumped on and made SDKs for it, and it actually became a much bigger deal. +[3893.44 --> 3894.44] Is this screen sharing? +[3894.44 --> 3895.44] Yep. +[3895.44 --> 3898.44] So you basically, you saw it, if you click it again, I think it goes back together. +[3898.44 --> 3900.44] If you scroll up more. +[3900.44 --> 3902.44] I think there's a way to make it go slower. +[3902.44 --> 3903.44] There you go. +[3903.44 --> 3904.44] If you keep scrolling up. +[3904.44 --> 3905.44] There we go. +[3905.44 --> 3906.44] There we go. +[3906.44 --> 3907.44] If you manually scroll it, it goes slower. +[3907.44 --> 3910.44] So you can see, this is the package that people got at Google I.O. +[3910.44 --> 3912.44] You can't just buy this, I don't think. +[3912.44 --> 3914.44] So if you went to Google I.O., you got this package. +[3914.44 --> 3917.44] So you pull the tab thing, and then it folds out all nicely. +[3917.44 --> 3919.44] But you can make this on your own. +[3919.44 --> 3926.44] Uh, if you have a laser cutter, they actually have the file that you need for the laser cutter to be able to read that file and then cut it for you. +[3926.44 --> 3931.44] Or there's instructions on how to cut it with like a nice exacto knife or something like that. +[3931.44 --> 3937.44] And the magnet on the side with the like washer thing that's sitting there is actually a button. +[3937.44 --> 3939.44] They can't see you, but sure, now they can. +[3939.44 --> 3943.44] There's a magnet on the side, which I actually wanted you to scroll to it, not look at me. +[3943.44 --> 3946.44] But either way, there's a magnet on the side which looks like it doesn't really have a use. +[3946.44 --> 3952.44] But if you're looking at something and you want to select it, you just pull the magnet down, which is actually really smart. +[3952.44 --> 3956.44] And it apparently works really well from the videos that I've seen, which is really cool. +[3956.44 --> 3958.44] Um, they haven't tried it on a ton of phones yet. +[3958.44 --> 3966.44] Fully compatible phones are Google Nexus 4 and 5, Motorola Moto X, Samsung Galaxy S4 and 5, and Samsung Galaxy Nexus. +[3966.44 --> 3972.44] Partially compatible phones are HTC One, Motorola Moto G, and Samsung Galaxy S3. +[3972.44 --> 3975.44] That's really not a ton of phones. +[3975.44 --> 3979.44] Um, it's about a 180 meg app and includes a bunch of stuff that you can do already. +[3979.44 --> 3981.44] So you can fly around on Google Earth. +[3981.44 --> 3985.44] Uh, you can go on a tour of Versailles with a local guide. +[3985.44 --> 3988.44] You can watch YouTube videos on a massive screen. +[3988.44 --> 3989.44] So it's just using the lenses. +[3989.44 --> 3992.44] So that, the lenses are one of the things you have to figure out how to source. +[3992.44 --> 3993.44] They help you though. +[3993.44 --> 3994.44] They help you though. +[3994.44 --> 3999.44] So you use those lenses to make the screen appear much larger and further away than it is. +[3999.44 --> 4000.44] And, and it is a custom YouTube app. +[4000.44 --> 4003.44] Like if you're watching the video and you look over to the right, there will be other video selections. +[4003.44 --> 4006.44] And you can use that thing on the side to select those videos. +[4006.44 --> 4007.44] Like it's fairly interesting. +[4007.44 --> 4008.44] I don't know. +[4008.44 --> 4012.44] Um, I mean, obviously this isn't going to take the place of something like Oculus. +[4012.44 --> 4014.44] Like we were joking in the intro. +[4014.44 --> 4015.44] Yeah. +[4015.44 --> 4016.44] It's not trying to though. +[4016.44 --> 4020.44] It's, uh, some things that'll be really interesting is stuff like street view, stuff like Google Earth. +[4020.44 --> 4023.44] Um, the, the, the, the right. +[4023.44 --> 4024.44] Versailles local guide. +[4024.44 --> 4025.44] Wind, windy day. +[4025.44 --> 4026.44] Windy day will be really cool. +[4026.44 --> 4028.44] I've used, I've used windy day on Moto X. +[4028.44 --> 4029.44] I don't know if you have. +[4029.44 --> 4032.44] Um, it's actually kind of fun even with just the Moto X. +[4032.44 --> 4033.44] Yeah, it's pretty cool. +[4033.44 --> 4035.44] Being able to do it with a cardboard thing would be kind of awesome. +[4035.44 --> 4040.44] Windy day is kind of a little interactive thing where you kind of look around with your screen and it's kind of like a little movie. +[4040.44 --> 4044.44] But, but, it'd be already sort of interactive. +[4044.44 --> 4045.44] You control the cameras actually. +[4045.44 --> 4046.44] Yeah. +[4046.44 --> 4047.44] So you, you follow this hat. +[4047.44 --> 4048.44] Yeah. +[4048.44 --> 4049.44] Pretty much. +[4049.44 --> 4050.44] That's what happens. +[4050.44 --> 4051.44] But it's actually, it's pretty cool. +[4051.44 --> 4052.44] It's pretty neat. +[4052.44 --> 4053.44] Yeah. +[4053.44 --> 4054.44] I'm definitely going to make one. +[4054.44 --> 4055.44] It goes to a laser cutter. +[4055.44 --> 4058.44] So I'm probably going to try to get a really sharp knife. +[4058.44 --> 4059.44] Nice. +[4059.44 --> 4060.44] And do the best that I can. +[4060.44 --> 4061.44] I'm not going to pizza box it. +[4061.44 --> 4064.44] I'm actually going to try and source like proper materials. +[4064.44 --> 4067.44] So I'll see how I can do there. +[4067.44 --> 4074.44] If you are interested in making one, definitely go to Google's website, which I believe is developers.google.com slash cardboard. +[4074.44 --> 4078.44] Because they actually have sourced everything for you already. +[4078.44 --> 4082.44] It's very possibly out of stock because a whole bunch of people have been buying them. +[4082.44 --> 4089.44] And if you look at one of them and then look at the items frequently bought together, they're all the other ones. +[4089.44 --> 4091.44] So they're pretty easy to find. +[4091.44 --> 4095.44] But yeah, it's, they also help you source it locally. +[4095.44 --> 4099.44] So they'll be like, here's an Amazon or other website link to this product. +[4099.44 --> 4101.44] And also here's all of its specs. +[4101.44 --> 4103.44] If you want to try and find it somewhere else that you can buy it. +[4103.44 --> 4104.44] All right. +[4104.44 --> 4110.44] Good news. Intel has apparently asked AMD for access to Mantle for an experiment. +[4110.44 --> 4115.44] So there's nothing that sounds super committal. +[4115.44 --> 4118.44] The original article here is from Tweak Town from Intel on this. +[4118.44 --> 4121.44] I mean, basically, yeah, for an experiment. +[4121.44 --> 4125.44] They have reaffirmed their position with DirectX. +[4125.44 --> 4132.44] Saying they're still committed to this open standard that they think is going to continue to drive the industry forward +[4132.44 --> 4142.44] and address the previous issues with API overhead and all the stuff that Mantle was looking to try to help developers with. +[4142.44 --> 4146.44] But that isn't to say that Intel is completely dismissing it, which I think is really interesting. +[4146.44 --> 4152.44] Because as much as there's the whole AMD versus Nvidia fanboy war, +[4152.44 --> 4162.44] something that a lot of people forget is that Intel actually has more market share for graphics than the two of the others combined. +[4162.44 --> 4165.44] And this has been true for years and years and years and years. +[4165.44 --> 4170.44] It's actually something that Darren, our expert from Intel, brought up. +[4170.44 --> 4177.44] And so if Intel were to stay committed to DirectX, that could pretty much dictate the direction the industry goes. +[4177.44 --> 4185.44] And if Intel were to get on board with Mantle, along with the 47 game developers that are signed up for the API, +[4185.44 --> 4189.44] then that could dictate the direction that the industry goes. +[4189.44 --> 4193.44] It's amazing how much power Intel has in very strange ways sometimes. +[4193.44 --> 4194.44] Yeah, yeah. +[4194.44 --> 4202.44] Something that the article also mentions is that Nvidia has apparently only signed up Crytek and Ubisoft to its GameWorks program. +[4202.44 --> 4205.44] However, I think that that could be a little bit deceptive. +[4205.44 --> 4212.44] I don't think that AAA game makers are the ones who are going to mostly take advantage of a program like GameWorks. +[4212.44 --> 4219.44] I see that more as an indie play, and I think we might see more come out of that in the next couple of years. +[4219.44 --> 4226.44] But apparently AMD responded by asking Intel for a month or two until it's out of closed beta. +[4226.44 --> 4228.44] And there we go. +[4228.44 --> 4229.44] An Intel spokesperson said, +[4229.44 --> 4235.44] At the time of initial Mantle announcement, we were already investigating rendering overhead based on game developer feedback. +[4235.44 --> 4240.44] Our hope was to build consensus on potential approaches to reduce overhead with additional data. +[4240.44 --> 4246.44] We have publicly asked them to share the spec with us several times as part of examination of potential ways to improve APIs and increase efficiencies. +[4246.44 --> 4251.44] So that doesn't really sound a whole lot like they're planning to use Mantle or push towards Mantle. +[4251.44 --> 4252.44] They just want to mess with it. +[4252.44 --> 4254.44] It sounds more like they just want to dink around with it in the lab. +[4254.44 --> 4255.44] Which is, I don't know, that's cool. +[4255.44 --> 4256.44] I get it. +[4256.44 --> 4257.44] Maybe optimizations or something. +[4257.44 --> 4258.44] Who knows? +[4258.44 --> 4263.44] The Moto 360 watch face competition is over. +[4263.44 --> 4266.44] This is actually the one I liked best, even though I didn't end up voting. +[4266.44 --> 4267.44] The one that won? +[4267.44 --> 4268.44] Yeah. +[4268.44 --> 4269.44] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4269.44 --> 4273.44] There was a couple that I was like, ooh, I would have absolutely no problem if that won. +[4273.44 --> 4276.44] This was definitely the one that I liked best. +[4276.44 --> 4277.44] Yeah, me too. +[4277.44 --> 4284.44] I mean, as much as I don't prefer to read an analog face if I don't have to, this looks really good. +[4284.44 --> 4285.44] Yeah, it does. +[4285.44 --> 4291.44] The one thing that does bother me is a lot of the space is taken up with telling me the time, +[4291.44 --> 4296.44] whereas I would like for a lot of the space to be taken up with reading my text message. +[4296.44 --> 4297.44] I have pretty good eyes. +[4297.44 --> 4298.44] It can. +[4298.44 --> 4299.44] I like small fonts. +[4299.44 --> 4305.44] Yes, I know you can change it out to whatever you want, but I wish that instead of just having an icon for Gmail, +[4305.44 --> 4311.44] there was more room on the main watch face to read messages. +[4311.44 --> 4315.44] Like if we could put the time up here and then have message previews down here or something. +[4315.44 --> 4318.44] Personally, I don't mind that because I don't want it to be aggressive. +[4318.44 --> 4320.44] Yep, and I don't hate this either. +[4320.44 --> 4321.44] I actually quite like it. +[4321.44 --> 4323.44] Well, you said it was your favorite one. +[4323.44 --> 4324.44] It was my favorite one. +[4324.44 --> 4325.44] I didn't think you hated it. +[4325.44 --> 4329.44] Just like personally, I don't like reading things until I want to read them. +[4329.44 --> 4333.44] I end up marking things unread a lot because I'll accidentally click on something and just be like, +[4333.44 --> 4336.44] damn it, I need to read this later. I'm not ready for this right now. +[4336.44 --> 4339.44] So I don't mind it kind of hiding in there for now. +[4339.44 --> 4342.44] This is funny because it kind of ties into one of our sponsors. +[4342.44 --> 4345.44] Where dollar shave club. +[4345.44 --> 4351.44] Oh, right. I keep forgetting that we're not doing the normal thing. +[4351.44 --> 4356.44] This ties into one of our sponsors pretty well because dollar shave club's whole thing is, +[4356.44 --> 4362.44] you know, whoa, razors with vibrating handles and all these features that actually don't do anything. +[4362.44 --> 4363.44] We don't do any of that stuff. +[4363.44 --> 4370.44] Well, this is Oral-B's new toothbrush that pairs to your phone via Bluetooth. +[4370.44 --> 4372.44] Freaking genius. +[4372.44 --> 4381.44] So this is posted by Nisanth and basically it gives you a bunch of information including things like how you can brush for better results +[4381.44 --> 4387.44] and it can share your brushing habits with your healthcare professionals. +[4387.44 --> 4391.44] Something that I'm sure that my dentist would be like, what? +[4391.44 --> 4393.44] What if I told him about? +[4393.44 --> 4394.44] Why do I care? +[4394.44 --> 4397.44] And there's that one time that you leave it plugged in and on. +[4397.44 --> 4400.44] It's like, keep brushed for three days. +[4400.44 --> 4401.44] Like what? +[4401.44 --> 4404.44] I'm sure there's a safeguard against that. +[4404.44 --> 4405.44] I'm sure. +[4405.44 --> 4406.44] Are you sure? +[4406.44 --> 4407.44] I'm pretty sure. +[4407.44 --> 4410.44] Remember the zero voltage thing that happened? +[4410.44 --> 4411.44] No. +[4411.44 --> 4412.44] What is this? +[4412.44 --> 4418.44] That certain board that reports voltage of your CPU and it was like, zero volts. +[4418.44 --> 4419.44] Oh yeah, right. +[4419.44 --> 4423.44] Things that you would think it would just have, like sanity checks. +[4423.44 --> 4425.44] Built in sanity checks need to be a thing. +[4425.44 --> 4426.44] Yeah. +[4426.44 --> 4430.44] Because without them you can end up with some really funny software stuff. +[4430.44 --> 4434.44] Um, Eeeblog, however he pronounces that. +[4434.44 --> 4435.44] This is, yeah. +[4435.44 --> 4436.44] Anyways. +[4436.44 --> 4437.44] This is actually pretty interesting. +[4437.44 --> 4444.44] Uh, posted a great video about how solar roadways are basically, um, grade A BS. +[4444.44 --> 4454.44] Um, did the math and pretty much at the end of the video the conclusion is they would consume more power than they produce. +[4454.44 --> 4464.44] They have proven absolutely nothing with respect to what they can handle in terms of weight and what they can handle in terms of traction. +[4464.44 --> 4467.44] Um, they are extremely expensive. +[4467.44 --> 4470.44] You can watch the video here on the forum if you want. +[4470.44 --> 4476.44] The original poster here was Jura Trun or something along those lines. +[4476.44 --> 4477.44] Jura Trun. +[4477.44 --> 4478.44] Jura Trun. +[4478.44 --> 4480.44] Um, I mean it's a great idea in theory. +[4480.44 --> 4489.44] They raised over two million dollars through crowdfunding, but it is pretty unlikely that this will see the light of day in this generation. +[4489.44 --> 4494.44] It's something that we talked about originally on the show and we kind of went, okay, yeah. +[4494.44 --> 4501.44] Something a lot of people are seeing in Twitch chat and, uh, yeah, we know is that there's actually been a lot of videos about this out for a long time. +[4501.44 --> 4502.44] Yes. +[4502.44 --> 4503.44] But this one was really good. +[4503.44 --> 4504.44] Yeah. +[4504.44 --> 4508.44] Well, some other ones are pretty good too, but either way. +[4508.44 --> 4518.44] So, I mean, yeah, so what we need then is just some kind of outlandish idea that sounds like really great to eco freaks. +[4518.44 --> 4523.44] And then we need like a really great campaign video and then. +[4523.44 --> 4524.44] So we're freaking wordways? +[4524.44 --> 4525.44] Well, that wasn't their campaign video. +[4525.44 --> 4526.44] That's the funny thing about it. +[4526.44 --> 4528.44] No, but that's what drove more. +[4528.44 --> 4529.44] Yes. +[4529.44 --> 4530.44] It drove a lot of it. +[4530.44 --> 4531.44] So then we need like that. +[4531.44 --> 4535.44] We need to find that guy to make our, our viral, our viral video. +[4535.44 --> 4538.44] Should be like solar trees. +[4538.44 --> 4539.44] Haha. +[4539.44 --> 4541.44] They grow with sunlight. +[4541.44 --> 4545.44] You should fund us. +[4545.44 --> 4546.44] They also make oxygen. +[4546.44 --> 4547.44] Wow. +[4547.44 --> 4548.44] You need that to live. +[4548.44 --> 4550.44] Isn't that freaking awesome? +[4550.44 --> 4552.44] They look great in your yard. +[4552.44 --> 4555.44] And they live for hundreds of years. +[4555.44 --> 4556.44] They're seasonal. +[4556.44 --> 4557.44] Wow. +[4557.44 --> 4559.44] Or they're not. +[4559.44 --> 4560.44] Maybe not. +[4560.44 --> 4561.44] It's up to you. +[4561.44 --> 4562.44] Evergreen. +[4562.44 --> 4564.44] You have the choice, man. +[4564.44 --> 4567.44] Evergreen can be a stretch goal. +[4567.44 --> 4568.44] Haha. +[4568.44 --> 4569.44] Haha. +[4569.44 --> 4572.44] And growing your own weed plant can be the next stretch goal. +[4572.44 --> 4573.44] Haha. +[4573.44 --> 4577.44] Stimulate economies if they make it legal. +[4577.44 --> 4581.44] Oh, it's funny because we were in Colorado. +[4581.44 --> 4582.44] Haha. +[4582.44 --> 4583.44] Yeah. +[4583.44 --> 4584.44] Alright. +[4584.44 --> 4589.44] Also posted by TwistedDictator on the forum, Witcher 3 to feature boob physics. +[4589.44 --> 4598.44] Which is one of those things where it's like, if Witcher 3 was the first game to include boob physics, then this I guess would be news. +[4598.44 --> 4599.44] Hopefully they performed good boob physics. +[4599.44 --> 4602.44] But apparently next power up thought it was news, so. +[4602.44 --> 4608.44] My favorite thing is either, either they jump around and they just sit there like solid bricks, or they jump around and then they go like. +[4608.44 --> 4613.44] Oh, no one can see you right now, but I think they should probably see that illustration of what you were talking about. +[4613.44 --> 4614.44] So I said either. +[4614.44 --> 4616.44] I'm sorry, how did you want the boobs to move again? +[4616.44 --> 4618.44] I didn't say I wanted them to move this way. +[4618.44 --> 4620.44] I said with bad boob physics they do move this way. +[4620.44 --> 4624.44] So either they jump around and they just sit there, which is not realistic. +[4624.44 --> 4628.44] Or they jump around and then like, a while afterwards it's like, oh! +[4630.44 --> 4632.44] That's not how they work either. +[4632.44 --> 4635.44] We've seen that in quite a few games and it gets super stupid after a while. +[4635.44 --> 4637.44] Or like there'll be a slight movement. +[4637.44 --> 4640.44] Like they'll just slightly get bumped and it's like, oh! +[4643.44 --> 4645.44] They'll just sit there bouncing for a while. +[4645.44 --> 4646.44] It's like, no. +[4646.44 --> 4647.44] You know, the thing is, if these- +[4647.44 --> 4648.44] Make it look real. +[4648.44 --> 4652.44] If these strategies didn't work, game developers wouldn't do it. +[4652.44 --> 4658.44] So for all the people who get all upset about this kind of thing, just if you didn't buy into it, +[4658.44 --> 4660.44] if you didn't make a bunch of noise about it, it would go away. +[4660.44 --> 4662.44] I'm down for more realistic gameplay. +[4662.44 --> 4664.44] So if they make that realistic, that's cool. +[4664.44 --> 4665.44] I think it should be. +[4665.44 --> 4666.44] And I'm all for equality. +[4666.44 --> 4669.44] So I think we should have like realistic testicle physics. +[4671.44 --> 4672.44] You know what? +[4672.44 --> 4674.44] Unless you're playing Rust. +[4674.44 --> 4684.44] If CD Projekt Red wanted to seem like, you know, very equality minded, then they would definitely do that. +[4684.44 --> 4687.44] Like if we had realistic junk swaying. +[4687.44 --> 4691.44] But then there isn't that many games other than like Rust that you're actually going to see that. +[4691.44 --> 4693.44] Yeah, but they could- +[4693.44 --> 4695.44] The boobs are very exterior. +[4695.44 --> 4697.44] You're going to see them even if they're covered up. +[4697.44 --> 4698.44] Okay, the thing about- +[4698.44 --> 4699.44] Sometimes. +[4699.44 --> 4708.44] The thing about breasts though, is that game developers design their game around making sure that the breast physics are on display the whole time. +[4708.44 --> 4710.44] So they design the female characters' outfits- +[4710.44 --> 4712.44] So you want someone to design a game- +[4712.44 --> 4713.44] To put the breasts on display, yes! +[4713.44 --> 4714.44] To put the breasts on display, yes! +[4714.44 --> 4715.44] Based around- +[4715.44 --> 4716.44] Yeah! +[4716.44 --> 4718.44] Having the junk physics there for the world to see. +[4718.44 --> 4719.44] Why not? +[4719.44 --> 4720.44] What? +[4720.44 --> 4723.44] So the camera angle's going to have to be like down on- +[4723.44 --> 4724.44] What? +[4724.44 --> 4726.44] Or like, you know how- +[4726.44 --> 4727.44] Oh no! +[4727.44 --> 4733.44] Okay, you know how Lara Croft like shamelessly, provocatively stretches whenever you're not doing anything for a while? +[4733.44 --> 4736.44] So some dude's going to have to do like the unstick step? +[4736.44 --> 4739.44] It's going to have to have realistic physics. +[4739.44 --> 4741.44] Or just like the- +[4741.44 --> 4742.44] You know the- +[4742.44 --> 4743.44] You know? +[4743.44 --> 4745.44] Oh no! +[4745.44 --> 4746.44] Okay. +[4746.44 --> 4747.44] Oh wow. +[4747.44 --> 4749.44] Swimming simulator 2014. +[4749.44 --> 4750.44] Yes! +[4750.44 --> 4751.44] We need- +[4751.44 --> 4753.44] All the banana hammocks. +[4753.44 --> 4754.44] We need the- +[4754.44 --> 4756.44] We need the NVIDIA to add that into their- +[4756.44 --> 4760.44] Yeah, Gameworks library for like junk physics. +[4760.44 --> 4761.44] Yeah. +[4761.44 --> 4765.44] And all the viewers laugh. +[4765.44 --> 4767.44] No, Twitch breaks every once in a while. +[4767.44 --> 4768.44] Yeah, I know Twitch breaks. +[4768.44 --> 4769.44] I'm just kidding. +[4769.44 --> 4770.44] Oh man. +[4770.44 --> 4774.44] Oh, people on the Twitch chat are like stop, please! +[4774.44 --> 4775.44] Please! +[4775.44 --> 4778.44] And it's funny because your timing is excellent. +[4778.44 --> 4779.44] I think we're pretty much done here. +[4779.44 --> 4780.44] Yeah. +[4780.44 --> 4782.44] Are there any other topics in the doc you really wanted to hit? +[4782.44 --> 4786.44] Uh, we didn't talk about Highlander at all, but I guess we have all the videos coming, so it's not a big deal. +[4786.44 --> 4788.44] Yeah, Highlander videos will be coming. +[4788.44 --> 4792.44] You're gonna see videos from Austin, you're gonna see videos from us. +[4792.44 --> 4794.44] Oh, okay, this is kind of a big deal. +[4794.44 --> 4795.44] Microsoft is offering- +[4795.44 --> 4797.44] This was originally posted by Goodbytes on the forum. +[4797.44 --> 4801.44] Microsoft is offering up to $650 off of Surface Pro 3. +[4801.44 --> 4806.44] If you exchange a MacBook Air at a Microsoft store, it does have to be working. +[4806.44 --> 4813.44] But quite frankly, I would take the MacBook Air over the Surface at this point. +[4813.44 --> 4814.44] Oh! +[4814.44 --> 4816.44] Which isn't to say I would buy a MacBook. +[4816.44 --> 4818.44] Oh, but you bought a Surface! +[4818.44 --> 4820.44] I did, but I'm gonna sell it. +[4820.44 --> 4822.44] For- yeah, not for a MacBook. +[4822.44 --> 4823.44] Yeah, not for a MacBook. +[4823.44 --> 4826.44] I'm gonna keep using my XPS 12. +[4826.44 --> 4827.44] Whoops. +[4827.44 --> 4831.44] Because, to me, this- +[4831.44 --> 4832.44] With the screen. +[4832.44 --> 4833.44] Okay, so here. +[4833.44 --> 4834.44] Whoops. +[4834.44 --> 4835.44] There, oh, it happened. +[4835.44 --> 4836.44] That's basically how it works, but- +[4836.44 --> 4838.44] Okay, so you get a little bit of- +[4838.44 --> 4839.44] Not much. +[4839.44 --> 4840.44] More thinness. +[4840.44 --> 4843.44] And it is lighter, and it is smaller. +[4843.44 --> 4846.44] Like, it's significantly lighter than the XPS 12. +[4846.44 --> 4848.44] Is it enough that it matters, though? +[4848.44 --> 4849.44] Like, no. +[4849.44 --> 4850.44] It's enough. +[4850.44 --> 4851.44] It's- +[4851.44 --> 4852.44] It's something. +[4852.44 --> 4856.44] Okay, so you get- you get more thinness. +[4856.44 --> 4857.44] So there's that. +[4857.44 --> 4859.44] I mean, I'm not making the point here about the thinness. +[4859.44 --> 4860.44] It really is thin. +[4860.44 --> 4864.44] You didn't make much of a point about thinness or weight, because there's not much weight difference between those. +[4864.44 --> 4866.44] There is a significant weight difference. +[4866.44 --> 4872.44] But the problem for me is that Windows 8 is not a good tablet experience. +[4872.44 --> 4874.44] It's actually nothing to do with the hardware. +[4874.44 --> 4875.44] The hardware is- +[4875.44 --> 4876.44] The hardware is very beautiful. +[4876.44 --> 4877.44] Pick it up more? +[4877.44 --> 4879.44] And then- +[4879.44 --> 4881.44] Yeah, junk physics. +[4881.44 --> 4882.44] There you go. +[4882.44 --> 4884.44] Not that I'm calling the Surface junk. +[4884.44 --> 4887.44] The problem is just, there's not enough USB ports. +[4887.44 --> 4892.44] Two USB ports is minimum, to call it like a reasonably functional PC. +[4892.44 --> 4893.44] We get one. +[4893.44 --> 4897.44] It does have Mini DisplayPort out, which is nice compared to other tablets. +[4897.44 --> 4901.44] There's no SD card reader, to my knowledge, although they might have hidden one under there. +[4901.44 --> 4902.44] No, they didn't. +[4902.44 --> 4904.44] So there's no SD card reader or anything like that. +[4904.44 --> 4905.44] It is very beautiful. +[4905.44 --> 4910.44] The kickstand is a lot better than the first gen, which is the last time I tried one. +[4910.44 --> 4911.44] It comes all the way out here. +[4911.44 --> 4913.44] So that gives you a lot of different options. +[4913.44 --> 4917.44] Like you can sit on a plane, and you can like lean it up against the seat in front of you. +[4917.44 --> 4921.44] The magnetic lock for the keyboard is pretty robust, which is cool. +[4921.44 --> 4925.44] So you can kind of like lean it up against something in bed, or you can put it down here, +[4925.44 --> 4928.44] and you can rest it on your knee, and you can legitimately use it. +[4928.44 --> 4930.44] And all that stuff is great. +[4930.44 --> 4936.44] But the question I have to ask myself is, why would I ever use it without the keyboard? +[4936.44 --> 4943.44] And then if I'm never going to use it without the keyboard, then why wouldn't I just want my keyboard occasionally attached? +[4943.44 --> 4947.44] Once in a while, I do use Windows 8 as a tablet. +[4947.44 --> 4948.44] You mean permanently attached? +[4948.44 --> 4949.44] Sorry? +[4949.44 --> 4950.44] Yeah, permanently attached, like this. +[4950.44 --> 4951.44] Yeah, okay. +[4951.44 --> 4954.44] Once in a while, I do use Windows 8 as a tablet. +[4954.44 --> 4961.44] When that happens, this may be bulkier, but it's good enough because I'm not going to do it very often. +[4961.44 --> 4965.44] And that's going to be basically the conclusion of my Surface review. +[4965.44 --> 4968.44] Apparently Wendell has an SD card reader. +[4968.44 --> 4969.44] Maybe I didn't find it. +[4969.44 --> 4970.44] I'm not done my review yet. +[4970.44 --> 4973.44] Like, I'm not actually filming this until next week, so I haven't... +[4973.44 --> 4975.44] Basically, the way that I usually do my reviews is... +[4975.44 --> 4976.44] Did you see it? +[4976.44 --> 4977.44] No. +[4977.44 --> 4978.44] Apparently it's under the hinge. +[4978.44 --> 4979.44] It's under the hinge? +[4979.44 --> 4980.44] Apparently. +[4980.44 --> 4981.44] That's a really weird... +[4981.44 --> 4983.44] No, that seems pretty sensible. +[4983.44 --> 4985.44] Under the hinge, eh? +[4985.44 --> 4986.44] I don't... +[4986.44 --> 4987.44] I don't... +[4987.44 --> 4989.44] Oh, maybe that's the micro SD slot right there. +[4989.44 --> 4990.44] There you go. +[4990.44 --> 4992.44] Why would you put micro SD on it? +[4992.44 --> 4993.44] Really? +[4993.44 --> 4994.44] Oh. +[4994.44 --> 4995.44] Oh, headache. +[4995.44 --> 4996.44] Anyway. +[4996.44 --> 4997.44] Oh. +[4997.44 --> 4998.44] Oh. +[4998.44 --> 5004.44] Not helpful when I'm offloading footage on a video set or something like that. +[5004.44 --> 5005.44] Oh. +[5005.44 --> 5006.44] Anyway. +[5006.44 --> 5008.44] Where was I going with this? +[5008.44 --> 5013.44] Right, so the way I typically do a review is I figure out as much as I can on my own, +[5013.44 --> 5016.44] without really looking at any other media coverage of it. +[5016.44 --> 5020.44] Then I go back and I look at sort of the launch press release and all that stuff to make sure +[5020.44 --> 5022.44] that I'm not missing anything critical. +[5022.44 --> 5024.44] So, I would have figured the SD card out. +[5024.44 --> 5028.44] I'm still not particularly pleased with it and I'm still not going to switch from a convertible +[5028.44 --> 5031.44] like this because it just doesn't make any sense to me. +[5031.44 --> 5036.44] I use it as a tablet so rarely that I might as well have something that... +[5036.44 --> 5037.44] Here. +[5037.44 --> 5042.44] This is the ultimate example of why I'm not going to use this. +[5042.44 --> 5045.44] Because I can use it in my lap. +[5045.44 --> 5048.44] Sort of. +[5048.44 --> 5054.44] But why have this, which if I go to, you know, oh, pick it up and it falls apart. +[5054.44 --> 5057.44] Why have that when I can just have this? +[5057.44 --> 5060.44] Which is weighted correctly to not fall off the back of me. +[5060.44 --> 5062.44] I can pick it up however I want. +[5062.44 --> 5063.44] I can turn it around. +[5063.44 --> 5064.44] I can use it like this. +[5064.44 --> 5066.44] It's just a lot more flexible. +[5066.44 --> 5068.44] It's a lot more practical and it's cheaper. +[5068.44 --> 5072.44] So, at the same price, I would take the XPS 12. +[5072.44 --> 5076.44] At a lower price, I would definitely take the XPS 12. +[5076.44 --> 5081.44] I don't know that there are many other convertibles that I like better than the XPS 12 though. +[5081.44 --> 5082.44] Sony's is terrible. +[5082.44 --> 5084.44] Like just tragic. +[5084.44 --> 5090.44] I don't have a ton of experience with different convertibles. +[5090.44 --> 5091.44] I like that one a lot though. +[5091.44 --> 5092.44] The yoga's excellent. +[5092.44 --> 5096.44] When we had the yoga at the NCX office, I liked it a lot. +[5096.44 --> 5098.44] Well, people are bringing up the pen for the Surface. +[5098.44 --> 5102.44] As someone who doesn't use a pen, I'm not a big fan. +[5102.44 --> 5103.44] Oh. +[5103.44 --> 5105.44] People who are talking about note taking with a pen. +[5105.44 --> 5107.44] Yeah, I get that. +[5107.44 --> 5108.44] However... +[5108.44 --> 5109.44] Show them the thing. +[5109.44 --> 5110.44] Which thing? +[5110.44 --> 5114.44] Oh, the fact that the only way to take a screenshot is with the pen. +[5114.44 --> 5116.44] Oh no, I meant like... +[5116.44 --> 5117.44] Oh, right. +[5117.44 --> 5123.44] So, my issue with the pen is that it doesn't stash in the device and the geniuses at Microsoft, +[5123.44 --> 5128.44] I'm sure they're very smart legitimately, but this is how you're supposed to attach the pen to the surface. +[5128.44 --> 5135.44] There's a little magnet where the charging port is that you're supposed to attach the pen to. +[5135.44 --> 5136.44] Oh. +[5136.44 --> 5137.44] It just comes off. +[5137.44 --> 5144.44] And then, if you get a type cover, the innovative solution there is you stick a sticker on it. +[5144.44 --> 5145.44] Don't worry, I know where it... oh, okay. +[5145.44 --> 5150.44] You stick a sticker to it and then you put the pen through the loop on the sticker. +[5150.44 --> 5151.44] And I'm just like, really? +[5151.44 --> 5156.44] You guys engineered a fraction of a cent solution to a problem that actually matters. +[5156.44 --> 5157.44] That's what you did just there. +[5157.44 --> 5162.44] I... yeah, like I... the reason why I like how the 2DS is made is it's super easy to get the pen +[5162.44 --> 5165.44] because that's where they put the colored strap along the back. +[5165.44 --> 5168.44] It's not even a strap, like the colored piece of plastic is where the pen goes. +[5168.44 --> 5170.44] Super easy to grab it, super easy to put it back. +[5170.44 --> 5174.44] I get that it's thin and that's great, but...

Squarespace is the fast easy way to create a beautiful +[182.80 --> 187.54] website that works on your computer, on your tablet. And I'm just gonna yell over +[187.54 --> 194.82] this music right now because Squarespace is so good that it's like loud. +[194.82 --> 201.16] We do legitimately like Squarespace a lot though, to be to be completely clear. We +[201.16 --> 205.24] use it both personally and and for the business. It's good for a lot of +[205.24 --> 213.70] different stuff. All right, so let's kick things off with Obama. Thanks, Obama! No, +[213.70 --> 217.54] legitimately thanks, Obama. This is very important. So this was originally posted +[217.54 --> 225.82] by IJK Snow on the forum, who has 342 posts, has a picture of a girl wearing a +[225.82 --> 232.84] lot of mascara. Like, that is a lot of mascara. Anyway, more importantly, right, in +[232.84 --> 238.90] 2000... okay, I think that I think that that might actually be wrong. I believe the +[238.90 --> 242.82] law was actually passed in 2012. But the point is that there was a law passed in +[242.82 --> 248.14] the US that prohibited users from unlocking their phones. Users who +[248.14 --> 254.40] unlocked their phones could face prison time or massive six-figure fines in +[254.40 --> 260.92] penalties, which is insane. I mean, it's insane. Let's look at this from the +[260.92 --> 267.08] carrier's perspective for a second, okay? So they sell you a contract, okay? So you're +[267.08 --> 270.26] locked in. You're gonna pay them however much per month and you're gonna use their +[270.26 --> 274.78] service and you're gonna pay it, okay? Then they sell you a phone. Now they can +[274.78 --> 280.82] either sell you the phone by itself for full ticket price, or they can bundle it +[280.82 --> 285.98] with a contract and then they can sell you an inflated contract price with a +[285.98 --> 289.52] reduced-price phone and you're subsidizing the phone with the contract. Now, +[289.52 --> 294.38] either way, whether you bought the phone outright and signed a contract with them at +[294.38 --> 299.48] a lower price, or whether you bought the phone partially and signed a contract to +[299.48 --> 306.56] pay an inflated price, the phone belongs to you. If you terminate the contract, you +[306.56 --> 311.90] have to pay the remainder of the value of the phone that you own or that you owe. So, +[311.90 --> 316.46] why shouldn't you have the right to change carriers? Well, there's a couple of +[316.46 --> 320.60] reasons. Number one is exclusive devices, where they work out deals with phone +[320.60 --> 324.64] manufacturers like Verizon, for example, being the only one with the droid DNA and +[324.64 --> 335.30] AT&T being the only one with the ASUS PadPhone X. But that's not a legal thing. And +[335.30 --> 341.60] who cares? And that's not a legal problem. The government, the police... +[341.60 --> 347.18] Should not be wasting resources on this. Shouldn't be involved in this crap. +[347.18 --> 354.86] So... Makes no sense. Basically, what's going on is it's effective today. It's no longer illegal to +[354.86 --> 359.36] unlock a phone in the United States. You know what's funny? Is I actually ran into issues with +[359.36 --> 366.30] this myself, even though I'm in Canada. Because I would be seeded US version phones for reviews. +[366.30 --> 372.88] And I would say, yo, dog, I ain't got no AT&T up here. So I need this unlocked. And they'd be like... +[372.88 --> 379.48] No can do really. Sorry. I won't say who it was, but someone did it. +[379.48 --> 386.82] But that's exactly it. How are they going to enforce that rubbish? Like, of course you can do it. So, +[386.82 --> 393.90] okay, the good news is that an idiotic law that never should have existed has been done away with. +[393.90 --> 401.32] But the bad news is that it actually doesn't mean anything. This does nothing to prevent... +[401.32 --> 404.66] I know a ton of people that were already unlocking their phones in the States because, +[404.92 --> 409.20] like you just said, how are you supposed to enforce this anyways? So it's super dumb. +[409.54 --> 415.46] Ridiculous. And this doesn't do anything about phones that are just enforced by the manufacturer, +[415.76 --> 419.28] or by... Particularly the manufacturer, where the manufacturer is enforcing no unlocking, +[419.28 --> 424.70] like the iPhone. Because it's also not illegal for them to lock and protect the lock on their phone. +[424.70 --> 430.72] That's right. So it does absolutely nothing. And I wish that this was better news than it was. +[430.72 --> 438.70] I've seen a lot of people really excited about this news. And as much as it's at least a step backward +[438.70 --> 444.06] from the wrong direction, it's not a step in the right direction yet. There are countries where +[444.06 --> 450.88] these kinds of lockdowns are illegal because... I think it should be. Because it's a consumer protection issue. +[451.10 --> 457.68] It's basically an anti-competitive behavior to go, not only am I going to get you to sign a contract +[457.68 --> 463.32] that says you can't go with someone else during this time, and then we're going to subsidize a phone with that, +[463.50 --> 469.04] even if you do want to break the contract and pay off the phone, that's a brick now. So whatever, dog. +[469.04 --> 475.96] And the other thing too is, and aside from that, even if it was mandated that legally they had to unlock them, +[476.08 --> 480.00] they're still allowed to charge you for it. And there's no limit. Although here in Canada, +[480.00 --> 483.86] I think the average is around 50 bucks. Yeah. Yeah. And... +[483.86 --> 491.92] Whereas you can get a code online for like six. Yeah. So this should have... Well, I wanted to unlock my iPhone 4. +[491.92 --> 497.90] And I wasn't able to. Yeah. Yeah. And that funny thing about that one is that if I recall correctly, +[498.18 --> 502.68] it didn't matter that the phone was completely paid off subsidy wise. +[502.88 --> 512.06] My contract that the phone was tied to wasn't up because that contract changed because I moved from +[512.06 --> 517.66] NCIX owning my phone plan to me owning it and it renewed for a new chunk. Yeah. +[517.66 --> 522.46] So I ended up not being able to unlock it within the useful lifetime of that phone. Oh my God. +[522.62 --> 528.52] So it was just kind of ridiculous. I gave my brother my old S3 so that he could work with it and try +[528.52 --> 533.42] and fix it and give it to his girlfriend because his girlfriend had an ancient phone anyways. So +[533.42 --> 538.66] he ended up figuring that out and wanted to unlock it. So I used my unlock code that I bought for it when +[538.66 --> 544.82] we were in Taiwan again and it re-unlocked the phone for free. Free. I had already paid for it, +[544.82 --> 549.24] but I had done this like two or three times already and it still worked and cost me like +[549.24 --> 554.36] $6 when I did it. So just in case you're wondering on how to do it, there's like a billion and one +[554.36 --> 559.92] websites that can do it for you. Speaking of... But I've heard that the unlocking iPhones, +[560.32 --> 563.80] you pretty much have to get it done through your carrier and it's like super crazy expensive. +[563.80 --> 569.94] Although there's some jailbreaking thing that you can do, but then... I think it's like a lot of work +[569.94 --> 573.74] and a pain in the ass or something like that. Or something like that. And I think his girlfriend +[573.74 --> 576.92] didn't want that done or something. I don't remember. Speaking of bogus unlocking codes, +[577.06 --> 580.88] this was actually a pretty funny article I read this week. It's not in our... It's not in the +[580.88 --> 587.36] document. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. So Sharon Parrish Jr. allegedly scammed Apple not once, +[587.36 --> 595.14] but 42 times. Basically the trick is that you... Here we go. Hold on. So it's an authorization code +[595.14 --> 600.48] scam. And it's apparently amazingly simple. So you visit an Apple store, try to buy products +[600.48 --> 604.90] with four different debit cards, which were all closed by the respective financial institutions. +[604.90 --> 609.06] When his debit card was inevitably declined by the Apple store, he would protest and offer +[609.06 --> 614.64] to call his bank. Except he was just pretending to call someone. So the complaint says he would +[614.64 --> 619.70] offer Apple store employees a completely fake authorization code with a certain number of digits, +[619.70 --> 624.26] which would normally be provided by credit card issuers to create a record of the credit or debit +[624.26 --> 630.02] override. But the problem with this system is that as long as the number of digits is correct, +[630.02 --> 636.50] the authorization code actually isn't meaningful in any way. It's just a record. It's a log. Yeah. +[636.50 --> 643.46] Yeah. So all they had was a record of him approving his own overrides. You gotta... You gotta wonder. +[643.46 --> 649.64] 42 times... Like this is like 300 grand. At some point, do you just kind of go, this worked really +[649.64 --> 655.40] well. Maybe I should go to perhaps a different store. Like not the Apple store. Maybe I should +[655.40 --> 661.40] hit someone else. Change it up a little bit. You even hit the same exact storefront. Twice. +[661.40 --> 667.40] Yeah. Like, dude... What? I mean, it's one of those things. Like, hilarious thief footage is always +[667.40 --> 674.84] funny. Yeah. Because it's like, what kind of people, B&E? Well, usually winners, right? Um, where they just do this +[674.84 --> 680.68] from amazingly ridiculous stuff. Yeah. Um... My favorite is... Sorry, I'm going to interject here. +[680.68 --> 684.92] My favorite is the guy that's sprinting through the mall and then runs through the glass door and +[684.92 --> 685.80] just like... Kaboom. +[688.52 --> 692.84] The glass shatters and he just slaps it to the ground and doesn't move. And I was like, wow, +[692.84 --> 698.04] you literally just knocked yourself out. Spectacularly. Good job. +[698.04 --> 705.80] Oh. Oh, all right. What else we got here? Oh, this is more, more good news on the wireless carrier +[705.80 --> 715.00] front. Um, Sprint is going to be selling, uh, or is selling? Whatever. A $12 wireless plan that connects +[715.00 --> 723.72] to Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, or Facebook. Okay. I think it's a bunch of ors. Like Twitter or +[723.72 --> 730.04] Instagram or Pinterest or Facebook. Okay. So basically, instead of buying a bucket of data, +[730.04 --> 735.32] customers can pay less for just the app that they use the most. +[739.16 --> 744.84] Other apps might be added in the future. Um, and this new plan is only available at Walmart and the +[744.84 --> 753.56] base offering covers just 20 minutes of talk and 20 texts, but with unlimited access to one of the above +[753.56 --> 759.32] social media platforms. Um, well, what I would like to see, I think they had something coming. +[759.32 --> 765.48] Let me just have a look. I think there was something for a music streaming service as well. Um, but the +[765.48 --> 772.44] the stupid thing about this is that T-Mobile is already allowing unlimited music streaming service +[772.44 --> 777.24] that doesn't count against your data plan. So when you use a service like Spotify, for example. +[777.24 --> 789.00] So yeah, I just don't really understand. If they enable Skype, I can see people using it because you +[789.00 --> 793.80] can do text and voice calling through that. If you wanted a really basic phone, but then why would you +[793.80 --> 803.00] need data? So, so yeah, so the plan starts at $7 a month with, uh, each service costing $5 or $15 for +[803.00 --> 812.04] unlimited use of all four. Oh, there we go. So even then though, we're talking about a 20, $22 plan +[812.04 --> 819.08] when you could sign up with someone like Ting, for example, whose phones run on the Sprint network +[819.08 --> 823.56] and really just have a complete pay as you go solution. Like, you know how their billing works, right? +[823.56 --> 827.16] Yeah. The only thing is I always forget about Ting because we don't have them. +[827.72 --> 831.40] I know we don't have them, but they are, they are a sponsor of the show and they are awesome. +[831.40 --> 836.36] And they are legit. I just, whenever I think about like planning out, cause I still have to switch +[837.00 --> 840.44] carriers or do something. Yeah. You have to do something cause I need that phone back. +[840.44 --> 845.48] I know. And, but like, oh my God, they all suck. I don't know what to do. +[846.36 --> 851.56] They all suck. I know. Ting, come to Canada. All right. Speaking of things that don't suck, +[851.56 --> 859.32] uh, or that do suck. Wait here, this doesn't suck. So Crytek has secured a new source of capital to take care of +[859.32 --> 867.40] itself in the longer term. So this was posted by Pokemon Trainer4 and basically the whole history here. +[867.40 --> 872.28] So the original articles from PC Gamer, let's just fire, fire this up. The whole history here is that +[872.28 --> 880.20] rumors were circulating that they were out of money and then they denied it. And then sort of somewhere in +[880.20 --> 886.76] the mix here, employees stopped showing up for work and filed grievances about not being paid, +[886.76 --> 893.48] not allegedly. Yeah. And then Crytek came out and said, yeah, we're in a bit of a pickle, not allegedly, +[893.48 --> 900.60] officially. And then now basically all they're saying about this is we've got the money. Um, +[900.60 --> 906.76] um, we're making it, we're in a transitionary stage right now. So we're moving from, you know, +[906.76 --> 915.48] a game developer to a, I don't know, to, to online publisher, someone pasted some other sentence in +[915.48 --> 919.08] the middle of the one I'm trying to read to online publisher. They have the funding they need. +[919.08 --> 926.20] Uh, no further details will be communicated. Radio silence. And the only article I could find that +[926.20 --> 931.40] wasn't from exactly a week ago was from five days ago saying they followed up and heard nothing. +[931.40 --> 935.32] So I'm guessing that's the last we're going to hear of it. They are moving to be an online publisher. +[936.12 --> 940.52] And there we go. So that's it. So Crytek's not going anywhere. I mean, this was mostly, like, +[940.52 --> 947.16] I wasn't too worried about getting a sequel to Rise, Son of Rome. Um, so this was mostly a worry +[947.16 --> 951.00] because I was looking at all the games that are going to be running CryEngine over the next little bit, +[951.00 --> 956.84] kind of going, well, CryEngine's great. Um, a lot of these games are great. And if they could keep +[956.84 --> 962.20] using CryEngine, that would be great. That'd be great. Yeah. So it looks like that's happening. +[962.20 --> 966.20] Um, they're going to be fine. At least that's what they say, but it wouldn't be the first time they +[966.20 --> 970.52] lied, I guess. So I don't know what to make of any of this. I wonder if it's a ditch effort to keep +[970.52 --> 975.48] more employees. I don't know. But what's the point of keeping the employees if you can't afford to pay +[975.48 --> 980.36] them anyway? Yeah, that's true. I mean, it's not like... But I do wonder about stuff like THQ, where they had to close +[980.36 --> 985.64] down, but they had like two or three fairly major game launches like right after they closed down. +[985.64 --> 990.44] Like if they were able to hold out for two more months, they might have been totally fine. +[990.44 --> 997.08] Well, I mean, they tried. Remember they did that crazy Humble Bundle? Um, I almost wonder if they had +[997.08 --> 1002.20] communicated why they had to do the Humble Bundle. If more people would have jumped behind it? If more +[1002.20 --> 1008.12] people would have jumped on it or if people would have contributed more to it? Yeah. Um, speaking of +[1008.12 --> 1011.48] Humble Bundles, is that Square Humble Bundle still running? I think so. I think so. +[1011.48 --> 1017.16] Uh, so there's a Square sale on our Square Enix, I guess. Sorry. Square Enix sale on Humble Bundle. +[1017.16 --> 1023.24] And I was a little bit misled. Yeah, here it is. Um, I was a little bit misled because... +[1023.24 --> 1026.36] Oh no, wait, there's a Humble Bundle? No, there's a, there's like a sale as well. I think it's a +[1026.36 --> 1030.20] different thing. Anyway, the point is, it's in the Humble store. Uh, the point is that I was +[1030.20 --> 1037.40] misled. I was told that it had Final Fantasy VI in it, but it was actually Final Fantasy III, which is what VI was +[1037.40 --> 1041.32] called for the North American release. I think someone was confused. Anyway, they do have 7 and +[1041.32 --> 1046.92] 8 for PC. I believe they also have 3 for PC. They got Tomb Raider in there, which I'm finally playing +[1046.92 --> 1051.08] now. I'm actually really enjoying it so far. I'm playing it on my Shield. It's good. Same place I +[1051.08 --> 1055.08] play all my games. Although I'm playing it through on the Shield tablet. I'm determined to play through +[1055.08 --> 1060.12] an entire game on Shield tablet and see how it goes. Um, speaking of playing through an entire game on +[1060.12 --> 1066.12] Shield tablet, uh, remember those controllers that we got with the back buttons? Yes. I spent some time... Which ones? +[1066.12 --> 1070.68] Um, the ones with the mushy back buttons. Mushy back buttons. Yeah, the rear buttons that you +[1070.68 --> 1075.40] couldn't reach. The circular ones? What? The like circular back buttons? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Yeah, so, +[1075.40 --> 1081.08] so, so those controllers. I was using the Xbox One one with Tomb Raider on the PC for a little bit. +[1081.88 --> 1089.32] It's not as bad as I thought. The mushiness actually helps you grip the controller without actuating them. +[1089.32 --> 1093.24] My problem was my hand was too big. Yeah, you just couldn't reach them. So I was pressing in like here, +[1093.24 --> 1096.68] and I'm like, I can't. I'll spend some more time with them, and we'll talk about them more on the +[1096.68 --> 1103.32] show later. Um, speaking of talking more on the show later, uh, there may not be me on the show next +[1103.32 --> 1110.20] week because my wife's due date for the new baby is actually four days from now. So I could get a call +[1110.20 --> 1115.48] right now, and I'd be like, peace. And, uh, and that would be that. So that's happening real soon. +[1115.48 --> 1123.08] It's gonna be an entire, oh, let's do a straw poll. It's gonna be an entire week of Luke Tech Tips, +[1123.08 --> 1127.40] you guys. Is it? Don't we have backlog of your stuff? Maybe a little bit, but it'll otherwise be you. +[1127.40 --> 1132.44] So. Okay. So we're gonna have an entire week. Super happy we just lost an entire video of mine. +[1133.40 --> 1145.32] Cool. Yeah. Woo! That's good news. Okay. How excited are you for Luke Tech Tips week? +[1146.44 --> 1152.52] Um. Um. I believe when April Fool's it was called Slick Tech Tips. Not very. A bit. +[1154.52 --> 1162.28] Not at all. Okay. So let's go ahead and post this straw poll here, guys. Remember, +[1162.28 --> 1169.24] do not click on straw polls that weren't posted by me or a mod in the forum. Or the Twitch chat. +[1169.24 --> 1174.92] Yeah. Whatever it's called. Whatever. There you go, guys. Start adding your, uh. +[1174.92 --> 1179.72] We should make the whole Twitch chat just a giant forum thread. Oh, I'm logged in as you, +[1179.72 --> 1183.64] so there's like a whole bunch of Linus Tech spamming. Because we were both doing it. +[1183.64 --> 1184.60] Yay! +[1184.60 --> 1190.04] All right. So let's go ahead and throw those results up on the screen so you guys can watch +[1190.04 --> 1192.68] them be tabulated as they come in. What's our next topic here? +[1192.68 --> 1194.52] Our next topic is... +[1194.52 --> 1197.80] Ah, let's leave that one. That was boring. +[1197.80 --> 1202.28] How about the Blackberry one? Okay. +[1202.28 --> 1207.96] Okay. So Blackberry is evidently the only phone maker that can meet the German ministry's +[1207.96 --> 1212.20] security standards. So I guess they're the only phone maker that can protect you against +[1212.20 --> 1214.76] the NSA a little bit? +[1214.76 --> 1216.12] I don't know. I think that's... +[1216.12 --> 1220.28] That seems like what Germany's security standards are kind of based on right now. +[1220.28 --> 1224.68] It does kind of seem that way ever since that, uh, ever since... What, what did they do? They +[1224.68 --> 1226.20] tapped into her phone? Her phone. +[1226.20 --> 1228.52] Yeah. It's like genius. +[1228.52 --> 1229.80] Way to make friends, guys. +[1229.80 --> 1230.44] Yeah, I know, right? +[1230.44 --> 1231.32] Way to make friends. +[1231.32 --> 1233.32] Okay. So do you want to do the run through here? +[1233.32 --> 1240.12] Uh, the ministry uses 3,000 encrypted Blackberry devices outfitted with technology made by German +[1240.12 --> 1244.68] security firm SecuSmart. I like how so many different security firms, +[1244.68 --> 1246.44] just put Secu and then something. +[1246.44 --> 1246.84] Yeah, I know. +[1247.96 --> 1250.76] It's like, good job being creative, guys. +[1250.76 --> 1252.68] Hopefully you're creative with your technology. +[1252.68 --> 1254.28] I would call mine SecuAll. +[1256.92 --> 1258.60] It's the most secure. All. +[1260.92 --> 1261.32] Wow. +[1261.32 --> 1261.88] Yeah. +[1262.60 --> 1263.88] Theirs is the smartest, though. +[1263.88 --> 1264.92] Smartest. +[1266.04 --> 1267.00] Mine's the hottest. +[1267.00 --> 1267.88] SecuMostSmart? +[1267.88 --> 1269.00] SecuMostSmart. +[1270.76 --> 1271.48] SecuSmart. +[1271.48 --> 1272.20] SecuSmart. +[1272.20 --> 1273.88] Um, I don't know. +[1273.88 --> 1274.76] It makes sense. +[1274.76 --> 1277.72] I don't know if this is going to be enough for Blackberry, really. +[1277.72 --> 1280.68] I think, again, they need to just really focus on software solutions. +[1282.68 --> 1286.28] Because even if they could make, like, an offshoot of Android that had their technology +[1286.28 --> 1288.20] built into it, I think people would be more accepted. +[1288.20 --> 1291.40] There's a lot of problems with developing forked versions of Android, though. +[1291.40 --> 1292.28] Google doesn't like it. +[1292.28 --> 1293.00] That's true. +[1293.00 --> 1298.44] And they basically make life difficult for you or any OEM who builds devices for you. +[1298.44 --> 1299.64] Like, it's really bad. +[1299.64 --> 1300.60] Yeah. +[1300.60 --> 1302.44] So, in order for them to... +[1302.44 --> 1306.60] And the other thing about Android is that no matter how much you lock Android down, no +[1306.60 --> 1312.52] matter how much Samsung wants to talk about how secure Android is, it's not. +[1312.52 --> 1313.56] Yeah. +[1313.56 --> 1315.40] It's by its nature very hackable. +[1315.40 --> 1315.96] It's what we love about it. +[1315.96 --> 1318.76] I was more thinking like a dual boot style, though. +[1319.56 --> 1321.08] You know the work and home system? +[1321.08 --> 1322.12] Mm-hmm. +[1322.12 --> 1325.08] Like, what if the work system was a completely different OS on the device? +[1325.08 --> 1326.28] Hmm. +[1326.28 --> 1330.04] But then, if you totally broke through Android, you could still get to the file manager and +[1330.04 --> 1330.52] access that. +[1330.52 --> 1330.60] Yeah. +[1330.60 --> 1335.24] And you look at how pissed off Google was about running Windows and Android on the same +[1335.24 --> 1335.40] notebook. +[1335.40 --> 1336.12] Oh, yeah, yeah. +[1336.12 --> 1336.68] Yeah, that's true. +[1336.68 --> 1340.44] So, is that going to be any different if you want to run BlackBerry OS and Android on the +[1340.44 --> 1341.00] same phone? +[1341.00 --> 1341.64] I don't think so. +[1341.64 --> 1342.28] Probably worse. +[1342.84 --> 1343.56] Probably worse. +[1343.56 --> 1344.36] I don't think so. +[1344.36 --> 1344.84] Yeah. +[1344.84 --> 1345.16] Yeah. +[1345.88 --> 1346.92] Um, so, what else? +[1346.92 --> 1348.20] Do we have any other information about them? +[1348.20 --> 1349.24] I'm prompting you. +[1349.24 --> 1354.20] The handsets incorporate SecuSmart micro SD cards that act as a separate hard drive. +[1354.20 --> 1354.92] Oh, my goodness. +[1354.92 --> 1356.60] This is what I was trying to talk about. +[1356.60 --> 1361.00] Um, for confidential information that can't be accessed by hackers. +[1361.00 --> 1361.96] That is... +[1361.96 --> 1363.16] Don't say that. +[1363.16 --> 1364.36] That was dumb. +[1364.36 --> 1365.24] What are you doing? +[1366.44 --> 1366.76] Smart. +[1368.60 --> 1369.96] It's like, you're not that smart. +[1370.52 --> 1373.96] Um, they're sold by the German company for 2,000 euros. +[1375.80 --> 1376.20] Okay. +[1376.20 --> 1376.84] Nice. +[1376.84 --> 1379.40] So, if BlackBerry gets cuts, that's how BlackBerry comes back. +[1379.40 --> 1379.88] Okay. +[1379.88 --> 1380.60] Makes sense. +[1380.60 --> 1384.68] Um, German publication Build recently reported that the +[1384.68 --> 1389.48] country's interior ministry was looking for to buy 20,000. +[1389.48 --> 1389.80] Yeah. +[1389.80 --> 1391.80] If BlackBerry's getting a cut of that, that'll help a little bit. +[1392.76 --> 1396.92] Not enough to like save their company, but hopefully enough that we can still have that +[1396.92 --> 1397.80] Canadian company. +[1397.80 --> 1399.80] But at least this is some good news for them. +[1399.80 --> 1402.28] And then other people might be interested because they might hear about this. +[1402.28 --> 1407.96] I mean, if BlackBerry were to manage to become the de facto standard for government use again, +[1408.52 --> 1410.44] how quickly would corporations follow suit? +[1410.44 --> 1413.40] High-end corporations and anyone who's scared of the NSA. +[1413.40 --> 1418.12] And then once they gain that share back, how quickly do we start to see some app developers +[1418.12 --> 1419.32] give two cares about it? +[1419.32 --> 1421.08] I mean, mind you, you can, you can load Android apps now anyway. +[1421.08 --> 1425.48] But the point is how quickly would it turn back into something that actually matters? +[1425.48 --> 1425.88] I don't know. +[1425.88 --> 1429.88] Because honestly, I really liked the social thing on BlackBerry. +[1429.88 --> 1430.04] Yep. +[1430.68 --> 1432.44] And it was, it was actually really usable. +[1432.44 --> 1436.28] I think it would be interesting to try BlackBerry again now that the Google Play store is just +[1436.28 --> 1437.56] straight up inside of it. +[1438.20 --> 1440.44] Because I think that would actually make things quite different. +[1440.44 --> 1442.68] There's not a ton else on here. +[1443.80 --> 1443.88] Nope. +[1443.88 --> 1444.92] That's about all there is to say. +[1444.92 --> 1447.40] So let's go to our straw poll results, shall we? +[1449.00 --> 1451.96] So 48% of you said wet. +[1453.32 --> 1457.16] 36% of you said very, with 9% of you saying a bit. +[1457.80 --> 1460.20] 5% of you saying not at all. +[1460.20 --> 1462.76] And 2% of you saying not very. +[1462.76 --> 1467.64] So mostly people seem to be, seem to be pretty down for the whole Luke's Tech Tips. +[1467.64 --> 1471.32] Should we talk about the game controller? +[1471.32 --> 1471.80] What's up? +[1471.80 --> 1472.84] Oh, oh yeah. +[1472.84 --> 1474.84] We should definitely move on to the game controller. +[1474.84 --> 1482.20] So this, this is a Kickstarter that let me tell you guys, I was all, what? +[1482.92 --> 1484.84] Why is this post gone on the forum? +[1486.28 --> 1487.24] What did someone do? +[1489.32 --> 1492.36] Okay, game controller. +[1492.36 --> 1493.00] Here we go. +[1493.72 --> 1494.04] Okay. +[1494.04 --> 1496.52] So here's the article from Engadget. +[1496.52 --> 1497.56] And you know what? +[1497.56 --> 1499.88] You know what makes me really upset about that? +[1499.88 --> 1502.60] Look how well search optimized we were on this post. +[1506.36 --> 1507.80] And that post is gone. +[1507.80 --> 1508.44] Anyway. +[1508.44 --> 1510.20] So here's the article on Engadget. +[1510.20 --> 1514.20] The game controller that trains your pelvic floor muscles. +[1514.68 --> 1521.88] So, uh, the package will come with an iOS or Android game called Alice Incontinent, +[1521.88 --> 1529.56] which is a joke because incontinent means you can't control your, you know, batter and stuff. +[1529.56 --> 1536.28] So basically the idea is that by doing Kegel exercises, you will be able to improve the strength of pelvic +[1536.28 --> 1540.68] muscles, which is great for pregnancy and improving sensations in women. +[1540.68 --> 1545.80] Um, last time I checked, the Kickstarter really wasn't doing very well. +[1545.80 --> 1546.76] It's not making it. +[1546.76 --> 1548.52] It hasn't gotten better. +[1548.52 --> 1549.56] Is it not making it? +[1549.56 --> 1551.56] I think it's going to not make it by a fair amount. +[1551.56 --> 1553.00] That is a bummer. +[1553.00 --> 1555.80] Oh, only 12 days to go. +[1555.80 --> 1556.76] No. +[1556.76 --> 1558.92] They should have worked on their kicker exercises. +[1558.92 --> 1560.92] Kicker exercises. +[1560.92 --> 1563.72] So they're, uh, let me see where it is. +[1563.72 --> 1564.36] Yeah. +[1564.36 --> 1568.68] So Tatiana Kozinovikova, okay. +[1568.68 --> 1569.00] Okay. +[1569.00 --> 1569.64] Whatever. +[1569.64 --> 1572.84] Guinness world record holder of pelvic strength. +[1572.84 --> 1573.96] Kozhevnikova? +[1573.96 --> 1575.88] Says that, uh, sure. +[1575.88 --> 1580.36] So the point is that this will help you exercise and, uh, and be better at that. +[1580.36 --> 1581.24] I mean, it's a real thing. +[1581.24 --> 1585.08] It's like a healthcare, healthcare professional, you know, thing to. +[1585.08 --> 1587.32] Oh, who did this? +[1587.32 --> 1589.00] Did someone? +[1589.00 --> 1590.04] Oh. +[1590.04 --> 1593.00] Apparently that thread was moved to spam. +[1593.00 --> 1595.88] So some moderator on the forum is getting in trouble. +[1595.88 --> 1598.52] I've seen a lot worse stuff than that make its way through. +[1598.52 --> 1599.08] All right. +[1599.08 --> 1600.60] So let's move on to our next topic. +[1600.60 --> 1601.96] Slightly more tech related. +[1601.96 --> 1607.32] Hopefully we haven't completely destroyed all of your guys' eyeballs over there. +[1607.32 --> 1609.72] You know, I think that thing's fine, but whatever. +[1609.72 --> 1610.84] I don't think there's anything wrong with it. +[1610.84 --> 1612.12] Me neither. +[1612.12 --> 1613.08] All right. +[1613.08 --> 1614.68] Who moved that? +[1615.96 --> 1616.28] Okay. +[1616.28 --> 1617.64] Let's move on to our next topic though. +[1617.64 --> 1617.96] All right. +[1617.96 --> 1626.84] So Nvidia has evidently found a way to quadruple display performance in low res LCDs. +[1626.84 --> 1627.32] Kind of beast. +[1627.32 --> 1629.80] Which is pretty darn cool. +[1629.80 --> 1638.04] So instead of using a single higher resolution panel, they're actually using two lower resolution +[1638.04 --> 1645.00] panels directly over top of each other to achieve pretty much the same effect as a single higher +[1645.00 --> 1650.12] resolution panel, which is like pretty bananas and actually kind of amazing. +[1650.12 --> 1651.72] Is it quite as good? +[1651.72 --> 1652.44] Well, no. +[1652.44 --> 1653.08] No. +[1653.08 --> 1657.80] The answer is, the answer is definitely no, but it does make a significant difference. +[1657.80 --> 1664.44] So their researchers disassembled two 1280 by 800 LCD panels and rebuilt them into a single display +[1664.44 --> 1667.32] with slightly offset pixels. +[1667.32 --> 1672.28] A filter to weed out polarization conflicts and a bit of customized software to force the display +[1672.28 --> 1674.36] components to work in tandem. +[1674.36 --> 1680.60] They're calling the prototype a cascaded display and in tests it has quadrupled the spatial resolution of +[1680.60 --> 1683.40] the original panels, which is pretty darn cool. +[1683.40 --> 1690.36] Now to be clear guys, resolution actually refers to what your eyes perceive, not a set of numbers. +[1690.36 --> 1696.68] So resolution can double without, you know, doubling the number of pixels or quadrupling them +[1696.68 --> 1697.88] or whatever it is as it were. +[1697.88 --> 1698.68] Brain explosion. +[1698.68 --> 1699.56] Brain explosion. +[1699.56 --> 1701.88] Pretty cool. +[1701.88 --> 1708.20] I think it's cool because hopefully this will lead way to stuff that we're seeing from like segue to the Intel thing, +[1708.20 --> 1709.16] the Intel shark. +[1709.16 --> 1710.44] I mean, it's not perfect. +[1710.44 --> 1714.04] The viewing angles aren't great and the brightness is definitely reduced. +[1714.04 --> 1718.28] It's not the first time I've ever actually used a display that has stacked panels. +[1718.28 --> 1721.64] The last time I used one was an IZ3D 3D gaming display. +[1721.64 --> 1724.28] It was a 1680 by 1050. +[1724.28 --> 1725.32] I always forget that. +[1725.32 --> 1731.88] 1680 by 1050 3D display that had two different panels that, and then it had, +[1732.60 --> 1739.08] instead of active shutter glasses, it had polarized filters, different ones on each eye, +[1739.08 --> 1741.80] so that you could only see one of the panels with each eye. +[1741.80 --> 1742.92] In theory, it didn't work very well. +[1742.92 --> 1743.96] But there you go. +[1743.96 --> 1747.08] I'm just hoping this will lead to thinner things behind displays. +[1748.28 --> 1749.24] That would be nice. +[1749.24 --> 1750.04] Ah, very cool though. +[1751.16 --> 1753.24] I mean, we, ugh. +[1753.24 --> 1757.00] Pixel density is so high at this point, and it's not so expensive. +[1757.00 --> 1760.92] I mean, okay, for things like Oculus, I can see it mattering. +[1760.92 --> 1766.28] For things like a desktop display though, I really don't think manufacturing two lower resolution panels is +[1766.28 --> 1769.00] going to be something that makes any sense in the near future. +[1769.00 --> 1771.00] I doubt even Oculus. +[1771.00 --> 1771.64] You don't think so? +[1771.64 --> 1772.68] Not really. +[1772.68 --> 1777.40] Because they need much higher raw resolution panels, and it's really close to your face, +[1777.40 --> 1778.52] so you're going to notice any... +[1779.08 --> 1779.64] Weirdness. +[1779.64 --> 1779.96] Yeah. +[1781.00 --> 1784.04] So I think they just need like a super baller panel. +[1784.04 --> 1786.52] Speaking of super baller panels and Oculus, you want to take this one? +[1786.52 --> 1787.32] Sure. +[1787.32 --> 1789.48] Posted originally by Dietrich W. +[1789.48 --> 1790.52] Sorry, I had to get that in. +[1790.52 --> 1790.92] Go ahead. +[1790.92 --> 1791.24] No worries. +[1791.24 --> 1793.32] I fix it ripped apart a very nicely. +[1793.32 --> 1793.48] Get it? +[1793.48 --> 1794.52] Sorry, I had to get that in. +[1796.20 --> 1796.52] Sorry. +[1797.40 --> 1797.72] Go ahead. +[1798.84 --> 1802.20] I fix it ripped apart a DK2 delicately, not ripped it apart. +[1802.20 --> 1803.88] They nicely took apart a DK2. +[1803.88 --> 1805.32] Sometimes they rip things apart. +[1805.72 --> 1806.04] Do they? +[1806.36 --> 1806.84] Sometimes. +[1807.08 --> 1807.32] Really? +[1809.16 --> 1809.72] Oh god. +[1811.40 --> 1813.00] Hey, if we get to see the insides, that's cool. +[1813.00 --> 1814.36] I'm not going to tear mine apart. +[1814.36 --> 1819.16] But they found, as you can see here, maybe not that one. +[1819.16 --> 1820.28] Yeah, this is the interface. +[1820.28 --> 1821.96] Yeah, but can you see the one where it actually shows like... +[1821.96 --> 1822.28] There we go. +[1822.28 --> 1823.32] Ah! +[1823.32 --> 1823.88] It is a... +[1825.08 --> 1826.36] You sound like a... +[1826.36 --> 1827.48] What's the sponge thing? +[1827.48 --> 1828.20] SpongeBob. +[1828.20 --> 1831.32] Oh, I actually have never watched SpongeBob. +[1831.32 --> 1833.56] I don't know if I've seen a whole episode, but I've seen his laugh. +[1833.96 --> 1835.32] That reminds me of his laugh. +[1835.32 --> 1841.32] Anyways, this is a panel from a Note 3 down to, as you can see, holes for the things on the Note 3. +[1841.32 --> 1843.32] I believe it even has a hole for the home button. +[1845.00 --> 1848.12] Like, yeah, directly taken from that. +[1848.12 --> 1848.84] But that's cool. +[1848.84 --> 1850.84] This is, again, a dev kit. +[1850.84 --> 1855.96] So I believe it was said somewhere at some point in time that once the consumer version comes out, +[1855.96 --> 1858.04] they will be having their own panels for everything. +[1858.04 --> 1860.76] But as of right now, they're just like, easy! +[1860.76 --> 1861.08] Yup! +[1861.08 --> 1861.64] Yeah. +[1861.64 --> 1863.96] Because we need you guys to be able to work on it. +[1863.96 --> 1868.44] And this thing had an AMOLED panel and good resolutions and all that kind of stuff. +[1868.44 --> 1869.32] So totally good. +[1869.32 --> 1871.40] Yeah, so a 1080p display. +[1871.40 --> 1875.88] And then they actually overclocked it a touch to run at a higher 75 Hz refresh rate. +[1875.88 --> 1882.20] So something of note, guys, is as much as people might want to debate, can you see 30 +[1882.20 --> 1883.80] FPS or 60 FPS or whatever else? +[1884.44 --> 1890.92] From personal experience, even overclocking a panel a little bit past 60 Hz does make a big difference. +[1890.92 --> 1893.88] Going from 120 to 144, frankly, I can't tell. +[1893.88 --> 1902.12] But going from 60 to 72, which is as far as I got my old Samsung 305T, my old 30-inch monitor that my cat jumped on, +[1902.12 --> 1903.72] I never actually got to use it like that. +[1904.28 --> 1909.24] Because I wasn't using it at the time that we did that how to overclock your monitor thing. +[1909.24 --> 1909.56] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1909.56 --> 1911.96] And then my cat broke it before I finished building my system. +[1911.96 --> 1916.04] So I never actually got to game on it at 72 Hz. +[1916.04 --> 1916.36] Oh, no. +[1916.36 --> 1917.80] But that was as far as I got on it. +[1917.80 --> 1919.64] And it made a significant difference. +[1919.64 --> 1921.00] So, um... +[1921.00 --> 1922.52] Well, he, like, he tested it. +[1922.52 --> 1923.48] He just didn't get to... +[1923.48 --> 1923.72] Yeah. +[1923.72 --> 1924.12] Anyways. +[1925.32 --> 1925.96] Yeah, I don't know. +[1925.96 --> 1926.52] It matters. +[1926.52 --> 1931.72] My favorite thing is the low persistence, which you can notice a lot once I get you sitting down with +[1931.72 --> 1933.16] both of them side by side. +[1933.16 --> 1937.00] It's interesting to get into a certain game where you have to, like, whip your head to the side. +[1937.00 --> 1939.64] And there's text and interface elements and stuff. +[1939.64 --> 1939.96] Right. +[1939.96 --> 1942.84] And with DK1, it'll look like complete mush. +[1942.84 --> 1944.92] And then with DK2, it's very solid. +[1944.92 --> 1951.40] Because a low persistence thing is turning off the panel between frames so that it isn't persisting on the +[1951.40 --> 1952.60] screen for too long. +[1952.60 --> 1954.44] But it does it so quickly that you don't notice. +[1954.44 --> 1955.00] Right. +[1955.00 --> 1955.48] Right. +[1955.48 --> 1956.84] It actually helps a lot. +[1956.84 --> 1957.72] Really, really good. +[1957.72 --> 1959.96] The high resolution and low persistence helps a ton. +[1959.96 --> 1962.20] We'll have a video on that at some point in time. +[1962.20 --> 1967.72] We're waiting because I got mine actually still relatively early, before some devs are even +[1967.72 --> 1968.68] getting theirs. +[1968.68 --> 1971.16] So most of the big devs already have theirs, obviously. +[1971.16 --> 1978.04] But it's taking a while for everyone to move SDKs to SDK 0.4, which is where you get support for the +[1978.04 --> 1984.04] camera and DK2's kind of, like, automatic detection mode instead of just screen extension mode. +[1985.96 --> 1990.68] So we just, yeah, kind of have to wait for that to be fully implemented so we can actually try a whole +[1990.68 --> 1991.72] bunch of different things. +[1991.72 --> 1997.08] Because my idea for the video is to sit down pretty much everybody in the office and have them try +[1997.64 --> 2003.16] gaming normally, gaming with DK1, gaming with DK2, and get their thoughts on the comparisons of the +[2003.16 --> 2003.48] three. +[2003.48 --> 2008.76] And that's not really going to work if we only have, like, a couple tech demos and maybe a few +[2008.76 --> 2009.16] other things. +[2009.16 --> 2013.00] Because I want to get some very specific games running on it. +[2013.00 --> 2016.44] So yeah, that video will be coming at some point when it's doable. +[2016.44 --> 2017.56] And hopefully you're still here. +[2017.56 --> 2018.84] Yeah, let's hope. +[2018.84 --> 2021.48] I mean, if I'm not here, I guess it's not really the end of the world. +[2021.48 --> 2025.00] But yeah, you guys, I'm sure will do a good job of it without me. +[2025.00 --> 2025.56] Yay! +[2025.56 --> 2026.52] Hopefully. +[2026.52 --> 2027.08] Hopefully. +[2027.08 --> 2029.80] That's my way of saying a good job of it better be done. +[2029.80 --> 2030.04] Because... +[2030.04 --> 2032.44] I was just going to say, that's his way of saying don't screw up. +[2034.68 --> 2038.36] We're actually going to be doing our first set, like, I'm determined to make Linus Media +[2038.36 --> 2040.60] Group as much like a real company as possible. +[2040.60 --> 2044.60] So I'm doing performance reviews with everyone when I get back. +[2044.60 --> 2045.48] I actually borrowed... +[2045.48 --> 2046.60] Do you get a performance review? +[2046.60 --> 2047.00] No. +[2047.00 --> 2048.76] Can we all performance review you? +[2048.76 --> 2051.40] Well, that's going to be half of each person's interview. +[2051.40 --> 2052.36] Yeah. +[2052.36 --> 2054.84] Is like what we can do better as well. +[2054.84 --> 2057.72] I was going to say we should get the entire company on one side of the table and then you +[2057.72 --> 2058.20] on the other. +[2059.16 --> 2062.68] So it's like the surfs versus management. +[2065.08 --> 2067.08] Fine, but I get to have my wife on my side too. +[2067.08 --> 2067.40] No! +[2067.96 --> 2068.92] We will lose! +[2068.92 --> 2070.20] That is not fair! +[2071.88 --> 2073.32] That's not how this works. +[2073.32 --> 2074.36] She has to be on our side. +[2075.96 --> 2076.28] No. +[2079.48 --> 2080.20] Alright, what's next? +[2080.20 --> 2087.08] Alright, speaking of being on a side, we are on the side of Dollar Shave Club. +[2087.64 --> 2096.04] Dollar Shave Club is the sponsor that forced poor Taren to shave his beard. +[2096.04 --> 2098.60] We had some of you happy about the beard shaving. +[2098.60 --> 2101.64] We had some of you extremely upset about the beard shaving. +[2101.64 --> 2103.48] We should probably get a straw poll going. +[2103.48 --> 2104.12] Straw poll. +[2104.12 --> 2105.00] I was frightened. +[2105.00 --> 2108.20] Were you happy or upset about Taren's beard shaving? +[2108.20 --> 2109.88] I'm going to have frightened as one of the options. +[2110.44 --> 2111.80] Anyway, so Dollar Shave Club. +[2111.80 --> 2112.44] What's the point? +[2112.44 --> 2117.16] If you guys aren't already familiar with them, is they for less than the price of going to the +[2117.16 --> 2124.12] store and buying razors with less of the hassle, deliver high quality razors directly to your door. +[2124.12 --> 2137.72] Your first order gets you a handle and a set of blades and then your subsequent orders will include four of whatever blade type you want up to their six blade executive model. +[2137.72 --> 2140.12] That is pretty darn executive. +[2140.12 --> 2148.76] I got to say six blades is like six more blades than no blades, which is better than not being able to shave your face at all. +[2148.76 --> 2149.64] I was just going to say. +[2149.64 --> 2151.24] And they also have other stuff too. +[2151.24 --> 2153.72] So they have Dr. Carver Shave Butter. +[2153.72 --> 2155.56] You could probably shave your face with no blades. +[2155.56 --> 2156.20] Which goes up. +[2156.20 --> 2158.12] You just might not have that much face left. +[2158.12 --> 2159.64] Right. +[2159.64 --> 2160.52] You could like find it off. +[2160.52 --> 2160.60] Right. +[2160.60 --> 2162.20] Fingernail shave. +[2162.20 --> 2166.44] Anyway, Dr. Carver Shave Butter, which goes on clear so you can see what you're doing. +[2166.44 --> 2170.12] They have their new aftershave product, which actually Taryn tried. +[2170.12 --> 2171.48] It smells quite nice. +[2171.48 --> 2173.96] And then finally, speaking of things that smell nice. +[2174.76 --> 2176.52] One Wipe Charlie's. +[2176.52 --> 2178.60] Peppermint scented butt wipes for men. +[2178.60 --> 2179.72] You know what's funny?

+[2498.12 --> 2502.02] 500 business cards that have that Twitter handle on it. +[2502.48 --> 2503.32] Been waiting to change it. +[2503.54 --> 2504.74] I have the other one I want though. +[2504.82 --> 2505.36] So that's okay. +[2505.48 --> 2506.72] You got packs coming up. +[2506.80 --> 2506.94] Yeah. +[2506.94 --> 2508.14] So you can give out a bunch there. +[2508.20 --> 2508.36] Yeah. +[2508.36 --> 2511.08] And then we've got CES coming up. +[2511.16 --> 2512.10] You should give out the rest there. +[2512.24 --> 2513.76] Just hand them off to someone. +[2513.86 --> 2514.58] Just take them all. +[2514.60 --> 2515.68] So I can order more. +[2515.68 --> 2516.72] You should leave stacks at people's booths. +[2517.22 --> 2518.28] Just leave entire stacks. +[2518.28 --> 2519.26] No one will forget. +[2519.58 --> 2519.86] Yeah. +[2520.44 --> 2523.12] And then I change my Twitter handle and they can't find me. +[2523.12 --> 2524.40] Do like the business card exchange. +[2526.12 --> 2528.54] Do the business card exchange but give the guy a hundred. +[2529.38 --> 2530.16] Here you go. +[2530.44 --> 2535.92] So it's actually worse to give out all the business cards before you change the Twitter handle. +[2536.04 --> 2536.32] Maybe. +[2536.32 --> 2536.96] Tell you what. +[2536.96 --> 2538.40] Why don't you change the Twitter handle? +[2538.58 --> 2540.86] I'll buy you new business cards and we'll call it and say. +[2540.98 --> 2541.26] Great. +[2541.56 --> 2541.84] All right. +[2541.92 --> 2542.40] Thanks, Brandon. +[2543.06 --> 2544.92] Now he's back to editing all the things. +[2545.70 --> 2546.00] If you... +[2546.00 --> 2546.44] Oh, yeah. +[2546.56 --> 2549.46] I was going to ask him to close the door because I don't ask him to do enough apparently. +[2549.78 --> 2554.44] So you're just going to monopolize Brandon's time and have him take pictures of your computer +[2554.44 --> 2554.82] for you? +[2555.38 --> 2555.62] All right. +[2555.66 --> 2557.66] Well, we gave him some appreciation for it at least. +[2559.38 --> 2559.74] Yeah. +[2559.94 --> 2561.28] So now we don't have to feel bad. +[2561.60 --> 2562.90] But yeah, I wanted to... +[2562.90 --> 2566.90] I started building my Squarespace site and I was like, okay, a lot of these layouts are honestly +[2566.90 --> 2569.92] optimized very well for having a lot of photos, which is... +[2569.92 --> 2570.14] Yes. +[2570.26 --> 2570.80] Very visual. +[2570.80 --> 2574.28] And then I was like, I don't have any problem. +[2575.34 --> 2578.34] I was like, when I build my new rig setup, I'll get photos of them. +[2578.34 --> 2578.56] You know what? +[2578.58 --> 2579.32] I didn't even mention. +[2579.50 --> 2583.86] Speaking of new rigs, our build guide that we did where Brandon stayed at the office with +[2583.86 --> 2586.14] me until three in the morning filming. +[2586.88 --> 2588.34] So that was a... +[2588.34 --> 2590.58] I think taking out the meal breaks. +[2590.72 --> 2593.96] I think it was like a 15 or 16 hour day or something like that. +[2594.40 --> 2595.62] It's some ludicrous... +[2595.62 --> 2596.00] Winner. +[2596.40 --> 2596.70] Yeah. +[2596.94 --> 2597.38] It was good though. +[2597.40 --> 2599.50] We got the build guide done, which is what it's all about. +[2600.64 --> 2601.14] All right. +[2601.42 --> 2602.34] Well, that was fun. +[2602.90 --> 2604.74] Let's move on to rumors, shall we? +[2604.74 --> 2605.74] Okay. +[2606.96 --> 2612.88] So first rumor is that the GeForce GTX 880 has been certified. +[2613.82 --> 2615.88] There's a question mark at the end of the headline here. +[2615.90 --> 2620.08] Have we had an 880 rumor every week for last month? +[2620.24 --> 2620.74] Oh, possibly. +[2620.90 --> 2621.04] Yeah. +[2621.10 --> 2621.26] Yeah. +[2621.30 --> 2621.98] That sounds about right. +[2622.12 --> 2629.86] So this is from videocards.com and the word on the street is that the GTX 880 will be coming +[2629.86 --> 2631.70] sometime in mid-September. +[2631.70 --> 2636.80] They're apparently planning a big event for all major press members from around the world +[2636.80 --> 2641.58] and prepare for boring Maxwell architecture presentations. +[2642.12 --> 2644.44] I wonder if videocards.com is getting an invite. +[2645.42 --> 2645.66] Yeah. +[2645.78 --> 2646.48] What the hell? +[2646.62 --> 2652.04] Live streaming new hardware and Jensen explaining why you should buy G-Sync monitors and Shield +[2652.04 --> 2652.54] tablets. +[2653.26 --> 2657.82] I wouldn't be surprised if he explains that we should buy G-Sync monitors and Shield tablets, +[2657.92 --> 2661.68] especially because Shield, at least the concept, I'm not that sold on the internet. +[2661.70 --> 2662.62] on the tablet personally. +[2662.80 --> 2663.88] Not because it's a bad product. +[2664.00 --> 2665.20] I'm just not a tablet user. +[2666.26 --> 2667.00] Love Shield. +[2667.26 --> 2671.00] And now that I'm using the ROG Swift as my daily driver, did I even tell you that? +[2671.76 --> 2672.52] Uh, no. +[2672.70 --> 2672.90] Yeah. +[2673.04 --> 2674.20] I kind of expected you to. +[2674.22 --> 2675.54] I'm using the ROG Swift on my machine. +[2675.54 --> 2677.88] Every single time a new ASUS monitor comes in, you just take it. +[2679.76 --> 2680.12] Seriously. +[2680.26 --> 2681.12] When was the last one you didn't? +[2681.12 --> 2685.32] That's the answer I was looking for. +[2685.94 --> 2686.54] Hold on. +[2686.64 --> 2687.10] Hold on. +[2688.08 --> 2688.48] Wait. +[2688.54 --> 2689.70] If I go back far enough. +[2689.82 --> 2690.08] Okay. +[2690.26 --> 2694.20] At my house right now, I have the PB287Q. +[2694.46 --> 2694.62] Yeah. +[2694.62 --> 2695.46] So I have the 4K. +[2695.60 --> 2695.76] Yeah. +[2695.76 --> 2697.82] I have the PA279Q. +[2698.04 --> 2700.42] So that's that beautiful 10-bit panel. +[2700.86 --> 2702.78] That's like pretty baller. +[2702.92 --> 2704.02] That you shouldn't have. +[2704.18 --> 2705.56] And then I have the ROG Swift. +[2705.68 --> 2709.34] Considering we have a Quadro here and Brandon could use a 10-bit panel for editing. +[2709.50 --> 2711.60] No, Brandon can't have a Quadro yet. +[2711.90 --> 2713.78] He's going to get a Quadro when we do the upgrade. +[2714.42 --> 2715.88] Is he then getting a 10-bit panel? +[2716.04 --> 2716.22] No. +[2716.76 --> 2717.34] I'll keep it. +[2717.34 --> 2724.58] So next time a video doesn't look perfect and you know Brandon edited it, blame him. +[2725.02 --> 2725.96] You know what, though? +[2726.02 --> 2728.16] We are going to do a bit of a monitor truffle shuffle. +[2728.46 --> 2730.92] Because we have that BenQ CAD one. +[2731.12 --> 2734.20] That 32-inch that's actually using a pretty nice VA panel. +[2734.60 --> 2735.64] So someone will get that. +[2735.72 --> 2737.96] That's okay for pretty rudimentary color work. +[2738.10 --> 2739.46] Actually, pretty decent color work. +[2739.84 --> 2741.34] Then we've also got... +[2742.52 --> 2744.48] Like are we making sure everyone has at least one really good color work panel? +[2744.48 --> 2748.44] We're going to make sure everyone has at least one pretty accurate monitor. +[2748.62 --> 2750.00] Is everyone getting Quadros then? +[2750.24 --> 2750.68] No. +[2750.92 --> 2751.28] Yeah, okay. +[2751.56 --> 2753.72] Taron is going to get a third monitor probably though. +[2753.92 --> 2754.68] He's asked for one. +[2755.08 --> 2759.58] Just because his workflow would make it a lot easier for him if he had a script above. +[2759.90 --> 2764.38] We're going to be covering all of this, of course, in the whole room water cooling upgrade thing. +[2764.64 --> 2766.28] Speaking of which... +[2766.28 --> 2767.94] What is this? +[2767.98 --> 2771.02] We had our first shipment of supplies arrive for it. +[2771.48 --> 2771.98] Hold up. +[2772.14 --> 2772.92] I can move mine. +[2772.92 --> 2774.30] You can dump stuff. +[2774.30 --> 2775.22] Here, do you want to hold this up? +[2775.40 --> 2775.62] Sure. +[2775.82 --> 2778.60] Just kind of hold it so they can... +[2778.60 --> 2781.54] Here, it's okay to have it sort of tilted but not all the way. +[2782.04 --> 2782.88] Okay, here we go. +[2783.50 --> 2783.86] Okay. +[2784.98 --> 2785.26] Sup? +[2785.38 --> 2785.80] Oh. +[2787.42 --> 2787.82] Yeah. +[2788.56 --> 2789.22] Here we go. +[2789.40 --> 2790.52] You can go ahead and... +[2790.52 --> 2791.52] I think they'll get the point. +[2794.24 --> 2795.18] Yes, friends. +[2795.18 --> 2796.18] Here we go. +[2797.90 --> 2798.56] Here we go. +[2798.56 --> 2802.52] master carton of Titan Black Edition. You know that graphics card that we never +[2802.52 --> 2807.66] got one to do a review about? I know, right? Now we have a lot. You know what's +[2807.66 --> 2812.24] funny? I got the... okay, okay, this is great. Great story. I got an email from +[2812.24 --> 2815.42] Acer today, because did I already tell you that we're gonna get a sample of +[2815.42 --> 2821.12] their upcoming 4k G-Sync? Yes. Okay, so the thing about G-Sync is that it works +[2821.12 --> 2828.50] down to... oh shoot, I believe it's 25 frames per second? 24? 35? Something like +[2828.50 --> 2834.50] that. If you dip too low, it stops working, because you can't leave an image on the +[2834.50 --> 2839.42] screen for too long. It starts to degrade and you have to refresh it. So I'm sorry +[2839.42 --> 2843.26] I don't remember exactly what that frame rate is, but Acer had some concerns about +[2843.26 --> 2848.00] me reviewing their G-Sync monitor, because if you don't have a graphic setup that +[2848.00 --> 2852.02] cannot dip below that, you're gonna see some tearing and you're gonna see some +[2852.02 --> 2856.62] visual anomalies that otherwise G-Sync completely eliminates. So they sent me +[2856.62 --> 2860.82] this email, they're like, do you have a system that's powerful enough to drive +[2860.82 --> 2871.62] this monitor in games? And I'm like, really? Really? Yeah, I think I do. I think so. I think we'll be okay. +[2871.62 --> 2878.62] I think we'll be alright. So what we'll probably do is dual 780 Ti's and go to town on it. +[2878.62 --> 2883.62] Should be good. I may actually have to borrow a rig just to do my review of that monitor, +[2883.62 --> 2888.62] because I've got a single Titan in my machine. That might not be enough. You might need two monitors +[2888.62 --> 2895.62] to drive modern games at like, because you want to be in that, you don't really want to fall below 45 FPS. +[2895.62 --> 2899.62] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because when I was at the demo, it looks pretty darn smooth down to about 45. +[2899.62 --> 2904.62] Do you have your Titan's water cooled in, right? It is, yeah. Do you have quick disconnects on it? No. +[2904.62 --> 2909.62] That's one thing I did for my update. Right. My Goffs card is to be quick disconnected with those coolants black ones. +[2909.62 --> 2915.62] Oh my god. Anyways, sorry. Is that where those all went? No. Oh. I got my own. Okay, where are they all? +[2915.62 --> 2917.62] Oh, they're on the bench! Yeah. That's right. Okay. +[2917.62 --> 2922.62] Um, anyways, they're like stupid expensive, but after building them into that bench, I was like, yep, need them. +[2922.62 --> 2928.62] Um, anyways, uh, what was I gonna say? Yeah, you could have just swapped those in your system, but you can just take a bench home. +[2928.62 --> 2933.62] Yeah, yeah, I'll probably just do that. What I might do, oh, I should just swap a Titan black. +[2933.62 --> 2938.62] And then bring the Titan here. It's not that much slower. Someone can have a Titan. +[2938.62 --> 2942.62] Brandon will never know the difference. No! You just had an appreciation thing! +[2942.62 --> 2947.62] Let's take advantage of Brandon more. No, he should get a Titan black. He should get a Titan black. +[2947.62 --> 2952.62] Taren, Taren, Edsel, and Brandon all need to get at least one each. Okay, there's five. +[2952.62 --> 2953.62] There's five. Fine! +[2953.62 --> 2955.62] You can't take one of those from them. +[2955.62 --> 2959.62] Alright, so we never actually managed to talk about any of the 880 rumors. +[2959.62 --> 2965.62] So, the rumor is it's gonna be 4 gigs of RAM with a 256-bit interface. +[2965.62 --> 2971.62] Uh, we should apparently also expect 8 gig models according to some leaked pictures. +[2971.62 --> 2977.62] Um, the rumor is that it might not be the fastest card out there, but it won't hurt your wallet too badly. +[2977.62 --> 2986.62] So, we're not gonna see a flagship card launch at, you know, $799 or $1,000 like the Titan black, speaking of hurting your wallet. +[2986.62 --> 2987.62] Um... +[2987.62 --> 2989.62] Crackling packages do not make that easy. +[2989.62 --> 2990.62] Yeah, I know, right? +[2990.62 --> 2992.62] It's Twitch chat telling you to do bad things again. +[2992.62 --> 2993.62] Yes. +[2993.62 --> 3001.62] Um, however, etc, etc, etc. So, it's basically a GK104 replacement according to the rumor on videocards.com. +[3001.62 --> 3008.62] But, based on, you know, how efficient Maxwell is, based on how big we think the chip is gonna be, +[3008.62 --> 3014.62] it's pretty safe to assume it will sit above 780 and maybe even above 780 Ti in terms of performance. +[3014.62 --> 3019.62] So, this could be a pretty darn ex... uh, exclusive card? +[3019.62 --> 3020.62] Exclusive! +[3020.62 --> 3021.62] Pretty darn exciting card. +[3021.62 --> 3023.62] They're not making very many. +[3023.62 --> 3026.62] You have to be a part of Team Green to get one. +[3026.62 --> 3027.62] I thought that was AMD's thing. +[3027.62 --> 3028.62] It's an invite only club. +[3028.62 --> 3029.62] Team Red? +[3029.62 --> 3030.62] Yeah. +[3030.62 --> 3031.62] Yeah, that's a real thing. +[3031.62 --> 3032.62] I was... that's why I was... +[3032.62 --> 3033.62] Oh, were you making fun of Team Red? +[3033.62 --> 3034.62] Oh, okay. +[3034.62 --> 3036.62] Well, I wasn't making fun of Team Red. +[3036.62 --> 3037.62] I was like... +[3037.62 --> 3041.62] The only thing about Team Red that kind of bothered me was AMD inviting me to join it. +[3041.62 --> 3042.62] The Twitter pictures? +[3042.62 --> 3043.62] No, no, not that. +[3043.62 --> 3044.62] I find those hilarious. +[3044.62 --> 3046.62] No, they invited me to join it. +[3046.62 --> 3050.62] And I was just kinda sitting there, I was going like, look, we have a relationship and +[3050.62 --> 3051.62] it's good. +[3051.62 --> 3053.62] But, if I start joining Team Red... +[3053.62 --> 3055.62] Except for when they don't send us anything to test. +[3055.62 --> 3057.62] ...or Team Green, or Team Blue... +[3057.62 --> 3059.62] Like, if I start joining a team, that's stupid. +[3059.62 --> 3060.62] I'm supposed to be impartial. +[3060.62 --> 3062.62] There's no point in reviewing anymore. +[3062.62 --> 3063.62] Right. +[3063.62 --> 3066.62] I might as well just not... they might as well just not send me a card. +[3066.62 --> 3069.62] And I'll make a review about how great it is anyway if I join Team Red. +[3069.62 --> 3070.62] Yeah. +[3070.62 --> 3071.62] I can't do stuff like that. +[3071.62 --> 3072.62] I gotta be... +[3072.62 --> 3073.62] I gotta be looking at the product as the product. +[3073.62 --> 3076.62] Maybe that's what they were trying to do, because they don't really send us things. +[3076.62 --> 3078.62] So they're like, if he just joins the team... +[3078.62 --> 3079.62] Let's be fair to them. +[3079.62 --> 3081.62] They send us most things. +[3081.62 --> 3082.62] Most on the CPU side. +[3082.62 --> 3084.62] There's only one. +[3084.62 --> 3087.62] There's only one product they haven't sent us in the last year. +[3087.62 --> 3089.62] And that was the 295X2. +[3089.62 --> 3092.62] And I believe they did intend to send one. +[3092.62 --> 3094.62] I think it just didn't really happen. +[3094.62 --> 3099.62] Alright, so we expect rumors of an upcoming graphics card to start circulating. +[3099.62 --> 3105.62] But what we don't normally expect is rumors of a graphics card that is not coming anytime +[3105.62 --> 3107.62] soon to start leaking. +[3107.62 --> 3110.62] Oh, first of all, the OP for that last topic was Victoria's Secret. +[3110.62 --> 3113.62] And the OP for this one is Big Earl. +[3113.62 --> 3115.62] So thanks, Big Earl. +[3115.62 --> 3117.62] But this is the rumor right now. +[3117.62 --> 3122.62] Apparently, even though the GTX 880 is allegedly going to be coming out... +[3122.62 --> 3125.62] And this one says early or late October. +[3125.62 --> 3129.62] So let's just say late Q3, early Q4. +[3129.62 --> 3137.62] The rumor is that the GTX 990 will be launching in early 2015. +[3137.62 --> 3140.62] So the original article here is from Tweak Town. +[3140.62 --> 3142.62] So thanks to them for posting this. +[3142.62 --> 3146.62] This is actually a relatively reputable site. +[3146.62 --> 3148.62] Like we're not talking WCCF tech. +[3148.62 --> 3150.62] Except for their audio playing ads. +[3150.62 --> 3151.62] Except for their... +[3151.62 --> 3153.62] Oh shoot, are we playing any? +[3153.62 --> 3155.62] No, no, they don't have any audio ads on right now. +[3155.62 --> 3158.62] But just be careful, because it might randomly attack you. +[3158.62 --> 3159.62] Even if you don't refresh the page. +[3159.62 --> 3164.62] So they're saying we should expect NVIDIA to completely skip the 20 nanometer process, +[3164.62 --> 3166.62] going from 28 to 16 nanometers. +[3166.62 --> 3170.62] Which would mean that if this is a large style chip, +[3170.62 --> 3176.62] there could be a lot more logic in it compared to what we've seen in the past. +[3176.62 --> 3179.62] The rumor is that this will be under the Maxwell architecture, +[3179.62 --> 3183.62] and that's probably... that probably pretty much goes without saying. +[3183.62 --> 3191.62] And then it won't stop there, as apparently we should see the G-Force 1000 series sometime in the next 18 to 24 months as well. +[3191.62 --> 3199.62] Although I think that that, as far as guesses go, is about like me saying the sun will probably set sometime in the next five hours. +[3199.62 --> 3204.62] Because new video cards come, like eventually. +[3204.62 --> 3205.62] Yup. +[3205.62 --> 3209.62] And saying sometime in the next 18 to 24 months is about like... +[3209.62 --> 3212.62] Even if they have to 9800 it. +[3212.62 --> 3214.62] Yeah, even if they... oh. +[3214.62 --> 3216.62] Oh, I just made some people sad. +[3216.62 --> 3218.62] What if they GTS 250 it? +[3218.62 --> 3219.62] Oh. +[3219.62 --> 3220.62] Oh. +[3220.62 --> 3223.62] Not good. +[3223.62 --> 3224.62] Not good. +[3224.62 --> 3225.62] Sad days. +[3225.62 --> 3227.62] Alright, so what else we got here today? +[3227.62 --> 3236.62] Intel is apparently going after Arduinos and Raspberry Pis in the most unorthodox possible way. +[3236.62 --> 3239.62] So this guy right here is called Shark's Cove. +[3239.62 --> 3245.62] It features a quad-core processor that runs at... I think it was like 1.3 gigahertz or something ridiculous like that. +[3245.62 --> 3249.62] It has an Atom chip, it's got a gig of RAM, 16 gigs of storage with a microSD slot. +[3249.62 --> 3253.62] You can output via a full-size HDMI port or an MIPI connector. +[3253.62 --> 3255.62] And it's got a USB 2 port. +[3255.62 --> 3260.62] The only issue here is that it clocks in at a whopping $300. +[3260.62 --> 3262.62] But it comes with a full Windows 8.1 license. +[3262.62 --> 3263.62] Yes, it does. +[3263.62 --> 3273.62] So if you wanted to dev for Windows 8.1 on a very small device... +[3273.62 --> 3278.62] I don't actually think this is directly trying to attack Arduino or Raspberry Pi. +[3278.62 --> 3279.62] It can't be. +[3279.62 --> 3280.62] The price point isn't right at all. +[3280.62 --> 3281.62] I mean, Intel's not stupid. +[3281.62 --> 3288.62] They would know that if they need something that's supposed to compete with that, it would have to be $20 or $30 or whatever else. +[3288.62 --> 3299.62] And like from talking with them at CES, a big thing that they kept on saying over and over again when I was looking at their little chipsets then, or their little boards then, was that they're very dev-focused. +[3299.62 --> 3301.62] And in this one, they're talking again. +[3301.62 --> 3306.62] It's supposed to be helping developers build apps for different sized systems and different solutions. +[3306.62 --> 3309.62] So I wouldn't be surprised if that's entirely their focus again. +[3309.62 --> 3312.62] Speaking of entirely being focused on... +[3312.62 --> 3313.62] Wait a minute, hold on. +[3313.62 --> 3314.62] Did I miss the OP there? +[3314.62 --> 3315.62] Nope, I didn't. +[3315.62 --> 3320.62] Speaking of being entirely focused, YouPorn really has been... +[3320.62 --> 3321.62] They were serious about it. +[3321.62 --> 3327.62] They have focused on sponsoring a pro MOBA team. +[3327.62 --> 3332.62] So apparently it is happening and there you go. +[3332.62 --> 3335.62] This was originally posted on the forum by Power Consumption Junkie. +[3335.62 --> 3336.62] I love that avatar. +[3336.62 --> 3338.62] GTX 480. +[3338.62 --> 3339.62] Love it. +[3339.62 --> 3340.62] I never noticed that actually. +[3340.62 --> 3343.62] I've seen him around, but I never really correlated the two. +[3343.62 --> 3347.62] So apparently many people who responded to the original tweet where they were like, +[3347.62 --> 3350.62] Hey, any pro League of Legends or Dota 2 players? +[3350.62 --> 3351.62] Yeah, we want to sponsor you. +[3351.62 --> 3356.62] Apparently most people came to the same conclusion that we did and that's that if they were to sponsor a team, +[3356.62 --> 3362.62] they would likely have to fund them under a different name because you're not going to have on like, +[3362.62 --> 3366.62] you know, the main feed for the international that's like, +[3366.62 --> 3371.62] like let's say this team makes the finals and they're being broadcast on ESPN. +[3371.62 --> 3373.62] They could have just done the... +[3373.62 --> 3377.62] They could have called them YP and used their little logo thing, the pink Y and black P thing. +[3377.62 --> 3379.62] Even then, I think that's... +[3379.62 --> 3381.62] It's a pink Y and a black P? +[3381.62 --> 3382.62] Never thought of that. +[3382.62 --> 3389.62] So anyway, the point is that they wouldn't be able to have you porn logos all over the backs of the shirts of the players or whatever else. +[3389.62 --> 3397.62] So hopefully we see some kind of, you know, tastefulness in the way that they do the sponsorship. +[3397.62 --> 3398.62] And I think it's... +[3398.62 --> 3400.62] They could have giant pink Y's on the front. +[3400.62 --> 3401.62] Okay, enough of this. +[3401.62 --> 3402.62] Um... +[3402.62 --> 3403.62] Just... +[3403.62 --> 3404.62] You know, on the other side. +[3404.62 --> 3405.62] You know what? +[3405.62 --> 3415.62] We try to maintain a certain level of professionalism on this show. +[3415.62 --> 3418.62] My mom might be watching. +[3418.62 --> 3420.62] I'm sorry, mom. +[3420.62 --> 3421.62] Okay, continue. +[3421.62 --> 3426.62] Apparently the contract is drafted, so there's that. +[3426.62 --> 3427.62] This is also cool. +[3427.62 --> 3430.62] Original poster on the Linus Tech Tips forum was D-Trick W. +[3430.62 --> 3431.62] LG is showing off... +[3431.62 --> 3432.62] Jump-stop it. +[3432.62 --> 3433.62] Speaking of size mattering... +[3433.62 --> 3437.62] The 105 inch 5K TV. +[3437.62 --> 3443.62] Yes, 4K is not enough for LG. +[3443.62 --> 3445.62] They want a 21 by 9 5K TV. +[3445.62 --> 3449.62] So it runs at a whopping 5120 by 2160. +[3449.62 --> 3453.62] We're not even talking the usual, hey, it's a new TV standard. +[3453.62 --> 3454.62] There's no content for it. +[3454.62 --> 3465.62] We're talking a whole new level of, I don't even know of a camera that shoots this. +[3465.62 --> 3472.62] You'd have to shoot at like Red's 6K or something and then crop it. +[3472.62 --> 3473.62] And then... +[3473.62 --> 3474.62] What? +[3474.62 --> 3476.62] What are you doing? +[3476.62 --> 3482.62] With that said, I do think that moving to 21 by 9, especially for a very large format +[3482.62 --> 3484.62] TV's makes a ton of sense. +[3484.62 --> 3489.62] I just don't think that chopping off the top of content or having black bars, if I'm going +[3489.62 --> 3494.62] to spend $120,000 on a TV is going to make sense. +[3494.62 --> 3499.62] Oh, sorry, I shouldn't say $120,000 because Samsung's competing model is $120,000. +[3499.62 --> 3503.62] LG's comes in at a mere $117,000. +[3503.62 --> 3510.62] Well, hey, if you were spending $100,000 plus on a TV... +[3510.62 --> 3512.62] I probably wouldn't care about that little extra. +[3512.62 --> 3515.62] Or the other way of looking at it is maybe you spent all of your money and you don't +[3515.62 --> 3517.62] have another $3,000 to spare. +[3517.62 --> 3519.62] Don't do that on a TV, man. +[3519.62 --> 3521.62] I would so buy a Tesla Model S instead. +[3521.62 --> 3524.62] But that's a poor people way of thinking. +[3524.62 --> 3526.62] What you would buy instead, right? +[3526.62 --> 3528.62] But then you just said you spent all your money. +[3528.62 --> 3529.62] So you... +[3529.62 --> 3530.62] Oh, no, I'm past that. +[3530.62 --> 3533.62] Yeah, that was just a stupid thing I said to get a rise out of you. +[3533.62 --> 3534.62] But that's not stupid. +[3534.62 --> 3536.62] I would way rather buy a Model S. +[3536.62 --> 3537.62] No, no, I know. +[3537.62 --> 3538.62] No, no. +[3538.62 --> 3545.62] But the point there is that when people like us, real people, discuss really expensive +[3545.62 --> 3547.62] stuff, and we're like, that's stupid. +[3547.62 --> 3551.62] It's stupid to buy that because here are all the things I would buy instead. +[3551.62 --> 3552.62] This stuff's not for us. +[3552.62 --> 3555.62] This is for people who already have all that stuff. +[3555.62 --> 3557.62] So we're thinking about it wrong. +[3557.62 --> 3559.62] We're clearly the ones doing it wrong. +[3559.62 --> 3561.62] That's all I have to say about that. +[3561.62 --> 3563.62] But yes, I would buy Model S instead. +[3563.62 --> 3564.62] Okay, what's up with this? +[3564.62 --> 3565.62] Hold on. +[3565.62 --> 3566.62] You're pointing. +[3566.62 --> 3567.62] They can't see. +[3567.62 --> 3568.62] You can't point to that screen either. +[3568.62 --> 3569.62] I can use the mouse. +[3569.62 --> 3570.62] I'll use...no, wrong mouse. +[3570.62 --> 3571.62] Wrong mouse. +[3571.62 --> 3572.62] That mouse. +[3572.62 --> 3574.62] Here, just put your hand there. +[3574.62 --> 3581.62] Okay, this is a big bar, which I'm assuming must be some form of speaker. +[3581.62 --> 3582.62] Gotta be a speaker, yeah. +[3582.62 --> 3583.62] Why? +[3583.62 --> 3584.62] Because idiots. +[3584.62 --> 3588.62] You're spending $120,000 on your TV. +[3588.62 --> 3589.62] Why? +[3589.62 --> 3591.62] Why is that there? +[3591.62 --> 3592.62] What the hell? +[3592.62 --> 3594.62] What are you doing? +[3594.62 --> 3596.62] Is this part at the bottom here see-through? +[3596.62 --> 3597.62] I think it's a cutout, yeah. +[3597.62 --> 3599.62] I think it's a cutout. +[3599.62 --> 3600.62] It's like... +[3600.62 --> 3602.62] Like, what are you doing? +[3602.62 --> 3604.62] Wow, yeah, that's the wall. +[3604.62 --> 3605.62] Yeah. +[3605.62 --> 3606.62] That's bad. +[3606.62 --> 3607.62] Super dumb. +[3607.62 --> 3608.62] Maybe it's not a speaker. +[3608.62 --> 3609.62] Not super fun. +[3609.62 --> 3613.62] I don't even...well, it must be because the speaker sure isn't here. +[3613.62 --> 3614.62] So... +[3614.62 --> 3616.62] But like, why do you even have speakers in it? +[3616.62 --> 3621.62] If you're spending $120,000 on a TV, please say you have some sort of sound system. +[3621.62 --> 3623.62] Yeah. +[3623.62 --> 3625.62] You should not be using those speakers. +[3625.62 --> 3626.62] That's so dumb. +[3626.62 --> 3631.62] But, remember, the kind of house you might have if you have $120,000 for a TV is probably +[3631.62 --> 3633.62] very, like, minimalistic and beautiful. +[3633.62 --> 3637.62] You don't want to go cluttering that shit up with, like, wires. +[3637.62 --> 3640.62] So, you should probably, probably use the speakers in your TV. +[3640.62 --> 3641.62] I mean, it's a... +[3641.62 --> 3642.62] You could have... +[3642.62 --> 3643.62] It's a...ah! +[3643.62 --> 3645.62] It's a $120,000 TV, so probably the speakers are badass. +[3645.62 --> 3648.62] You could have the wires going through the wall. +[3648.62 --> 3652.62] I can't even fully complete the sentence. +[3652.62 --> 3653.62] Oh my god. +[3653.62 --> 3654.62] No! +[3654.62 --> 3656.62] There's a crazy controller thing that I saw on, what was it, Monoprice? +[3656.62 --> 3657.62] Yeah. +[3657.62 --> 3659.62] You could have wall switches for all your speakers. +[3659.62 --> 3661.62] No, because that would probably ruin your wall. +[3661.62 --> 3663.62] Your wall is probably very beautiful. +[3663.62 --> 3669.62] So it would have to be, like, touch-detecting lasers in the roof so that you can tap on the +[3669.62 --> 3670.62] wall and there's no screen there. +[3670.62 --> 3671.62] Yeah. +[3671.62 --> 3675.62] But, like, the wall would have to be glass so that you wouldn't, like, get your oil on +[3675.62 --> 3677.62] it and, like, ruin it. +[3677.62 --> 3678.62] Yeah. +[3678.62 --> 3680.62] My rich people house would be awesome. +[3680.62 --> 3683.62] I actually planned out what my rich people house would be. +[3683.62 --> 3684.62] Yeah. +[3684.62 --> 3688.62] So if I just had, like, millions of dollars and had no idea what to do with it, I would +[3688.62 --> 3691.62] build a house that's completely below ground. +[3691.62 --> 3697.62] Because, I don't know about other places, but here in Vancouver, the average lot size has +[3697.62 --> 3700.62] significantly decreased over the last 25 years. +[3700.62 --> 3707.62] So, my idea was that the entire house would actually use, like, an Egyptian mirror system +[3707.62 --> 3714.62] style thing to pull light in from a certain sort of number of places, but then the actual +[3714.62 --> 3719.62] entire top of the property could be, like, a grass field thing. +[3719.62 --> 3722.62] So people would be driving by and it would be, like, empty lot. +[3722.62 --> 3724.62] Except there would actually be a house there. +[3724.62 --> 3729.62] So you would access it by opening up, like, a storm cellar style thing. +[3729.62 --> 3730.62] Well, you have a million dollar house. +[3730.62 --> 3731.62] Yeah, a million dollar house. +[3731.62 --> 3732.62] So, like, you'd like... +[3732.62 --> 3735.62] Well, okay, million dollar house in Vancouver, not that expensive. +[3735.62 --> 3736.62] You have a multi million dollar house. +[3736.62 --> 3737.62] You have millions of dollars. +[3737.62 --> 3738.62] Yeah. +[3738.62 --> 3743.62] You'd be like beep beep boop on your, on your, like, smart watch and then, like, an elevator +[3743.62 --> 3744.62] would come out of the ground. +[3744.62 --> 3745.62] Hello, my wife. +[3745.62 --> 3746.62] Here is your personal movement system. +[3746.62 --> 3747.62] Yeah. +[3747.62 --> 3748.62] Then you get it. +[3748.62 --> 3751.62] The point of this house would be that I spent all this money on the house. +[3751.62 --> 3754.62] I'm gonna save that money in cooling expenses. +[3754.62 --> 3760.62] I wouldn't need air conditioning because I'd be so far down below the ground. +[3760.62 --> 3763.62] He's still on about the air conditioning. +[3763.62 --> 3764.62] Oh my God. +[3764.62 --> 3773.62] To avoid getting air conditioning, he would, A, build a multi million dollar house underground +[3773.62 --> 3775.62] so you wouldn't have to get air conditioning. +[3775.62 --> 3778.62] Or, B, water cool every single computer in the office in one loop. +[3778.62 --> 3785.62] So he can pull air out of the, pull that heat out of the room, but still not buy air conditioning. +[3785.62 --> 3792.62] And I could still, I could still enjoy, like, all that money I'm spending by further investing +[3792.62 --> 3795.62] in things like the best home theater system ever. +[3795.62 --> 3798.62] Because you could crank that up as loud as you want. +[3798.62 --> 3802.62] And if you were three stories down, that would be amazing. +[3802.62 --> 3804.62] Because you could have it be completely dark. +[3804.62 --> 3809.62] If you put subwoofers, like, in the walls, you could make everyone think that there's mini earthquakes +[3809.62 --> 3810.62] whenever you watch action movies. +[3810.62 --> 3811.62] That would be amazing. +[3811.62 --> 3812.62] That would be so epic. +[3812.62 --> 3813.62] That would be great. +[3813.62 --> 3816.62] I saw someone on Twitch chat saying if Linus had a million dollars, +[3816.62 --> 3819.62] he would buy Streets by 50 Star Wars headphones to review them. +[3819.62 --> 3821.62] Yeah, I already did that. +[3821.62 --> 3822.62] I shot that review today. +[3822.62 --> 3824.62] That review is gonna be... +[3824.62 --> 3825.62] When is it going up? +[3825.62 --> 3829.62] Not for a while, because we have to film the music video on Tuesday. +[3829.62 --> 3833.62] And then it has to be edited, which is gonna, I'm assuming, take, like, at least a full day. +[3833.62 --> 3834.62] For someone. +[3834.62 --> 3835.62] So, yeah. +[3835.62 --> 3836.62] It's gonna be awesome. +[3836.62 --> 3838.62] That review is a thing. +[3838.62 --> 3839.62] It's gonna be amazing. +[3839.62 --> 3840.62] Or terrible. +[3840.62 --> 3841.62] I'm pretty stoked for that. +[3841.62 --> 3842.62] Or terribly amazing. +[3842.62 --> 3843.62] Or... +[3843.62 --> 3844.62] Yeah. +[3844.62 --> 3848.62] Alright, so, we actually don't have a ton of topics this week. +[3848.62 --> 3849.62] No. +[3849.62 --> 3850.62] It's kind of the summer. +[3850.62 --> 3857.62] And rather than end the show early, we decided we wanted to do kind of an interactive thing with you guys. +[3857.62 --> 3865.62] And talk about what you think in terms of, of raw, going for raw FPS versus... +[3865.62 --> 3866.62] Where is this? +[3866.62 --> 3869.62] Where did it go? +[3869.62 --> 3870.62] What is this? +[3870.62 --> 3871.62] Was it removed? +[3871.62 --> 3872.62] I don't know. +[3872.62 --> 3874.62] I can't find it right now. +[3874.62 --> 3876.62] The, the discussion topic. +[3876.62 --> 3878.62] Oh, oh, I see it. +[3878.62 --> 3879.62] Okay. +[3879.62 --> 3880.62] Well, okay. +[3880.62 --> 3881.62] No, first let's do... +[3881.62 --> 3882.62] I just... +[3882.62 --> 3883.62] Okay, this isn't something that's a news item. +[3883.62 --> 3886.62] I just thought this was a really great post by, um... +[3886.62 --> 3887.62] Uh... +[3887.62 --> 3888.62] XEA? +[3888.62 --> 3889.62] XEA. +[3889.62 --> 3890.62] XEA. +[3890.62 --> 3891.62] XEA. +[3891.62 --> 3892.62] Um... +[3892.62 --> 3895.62] So basically, AMD released their FreeSync FAQ. +[3895.62 --> 3900.62] So FreeSync is the G-Sync competitor, sort of, from AMD. +[3900.62 --> 3911.62] Where instead of them developing like a chip that goes in the monitor that allows the display to only refresh when the video card sends it a signal telling it to refresh. +[3911.62 --> 3915.62] Instead, this is part of the upcoming VESA standard for DisplayPort 1.3. +[3915.62 --> 3922.62] So, AMD's naming of it as, as FreeSync because it's going to be part of a VESA standard is, uh... +[3922.62 --> 3925.62] Yeah, you know, kind of a shot at, uh... +[3925.62 --> 3932.62] Shot at Nvidia as well as just a way of sort of making it clear that this is something that's part of an existing standard, sort of. +[3932.62 --> 3933.62] Um... +[3933.62 --> 3934.62] So basically, they've released... +[3934.62 --> 3935.62] Right. +[3935.62 --> 3936.62] So they've released an FAQ about it. +[3936.62 --> 3944.62] And the main points here are that DisplayPort ActiveSync, which is what it'll actually end up being called, not Project FreeSync. +[3944.62 --> 3948.62] Enables the real-time adjustment of the monitor refresh rate. +[3948.62 --> 3949.62] So that's good. +[3949.62 --> 3950.62] They're saying it's... +[3950.62 --> 3959.62] Project FreeSync is a unique AMD hardware software solution that utilizes DisplayPort ActiveSync protocols to enable user-facing benefits. +[3959.62 --> 3962.62] So that's smooth, tearing-free, and low-latency gameplay and video. +[3962.62 --> 3971.62] So what's interesting about that is there's actually no guarantee that FreeSync is going to be supported across all graphics cards. +[3971.62 --> 3973.62] Intel hasn't commented on it at all. +[3973.62 --> 3976.62] And Nvidia certainly hasn't commented on it. +[3976.62 --> 3993.62] So we may actually be looking at a completely new set of Nvidia-certified, AMD-certified, rather than a completely open standard that's supposed to come, you know, crashing onto the market and make it so that everyone can enjoy what is truly an amazing technology. +[3993.62 --> 3997.62] Which I find a little bit disappointing, but I'm not ready to condemn it yet. +[3997.62 --> 4002.62] Because if it does, it turns out to be absolutely freaking fantastic, then that's great. +[4002.62 --> 4007.62] But the problem is that it requires specific hardware. +[4007.62 --> 4013.62] So you could actually see DisplayPort monitors that do not support FreeSync. +[4013.62 --> 4015.62] And they could still be DisplayPort 1.3. +[4015.62 --> 4021.62] So that's another thing that is something for people who are waiting, that are holding out for FreeSync. +[4021.62 --> 4026.62] That's something that they might want to consider, aside from how long they will likely be waiting. +[4026.62 --> 4029.62] This was actually a post pulled from Asus. +[4029.62 --> 4031.62] Someone from Asus posted this. +[4031.62 --> 4032.62] Let me just find it. +[4032.62 --> 4033.62] Here we go. +[4033.62 --> 4034.62] So... +[4034.62 --> 4035.62] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. +[4035.62 --> 4036.62] Yeah. +[4036.62 --> 4038.62] So someone posted on, I think it must have been on their forum. +[4038.62 --> 4044.62] You know any monitor that can get to the G-Sync upgrade already has V-blank enabled, which means it's FreeSync compatible, right? +[4044.62 --> 4048.62] And basically Marshall R shut this down and said, no, it's not the same. +[4048.62 --> 4051.62] It needs to be enabled in firmware, drivers, ICs, etc. +[4051.62 --> 4053.62] And it's not Asus official. +[4053.62 --> 4057.62] It's just a little bit of background information on how product development works. +[4057.62 --> 4060.62] Having an industry standard is only a first step. +[4060.62 --> 4062.62] It doesn't make it happen. +[4062.62 --> 4066.62] VESA's on board, so it's probably going to be fine, but it likely won't be fast. +[4066.62 --> 4075.62] And another great point that gets brought up here is that it doesn't take into account that the LCD and display guys are already really focused on other crap right now. +[4075.62 --> 4078.62] 4K, 21 by 9, touch screen, curved displays. +[4078.62 --> 4087.62] These are all things that they're focused on that are not just catering to gamers and are important for everyone, not just gamers. +[4087.62 --> 4091.62] So adaptive refresh needs an ASIC display, IC, physical redesign. +[4091.62 --> 4093.62] It's not just a firmware update. +[4093.62 --> 4097.62] That means silicon tape out, manufacturing, testing, firmware, everything. +[4097.62 --> 4101.62] Typically that's 12 months from now to get it in their hands. +[4101.62 --> 4106.62] And then another six months or more of product dev to actually make a retail display. +[4106.62 --> 4113.62] And that's if all the display IC manufacturers decide to update for 1.2a instead of just waiting for 1.3. +[4113.62 --> 4117.62] So sorry, 1.2a I believe is the one that was going to include it. +[4117.62 --> 4118.62] I'm a little bit rusty. +[4118.62 --> 4119.62] I haven't looked at it recently. +[4119.62 --> 4123.62] Anyway, the point is that in the short term until further notice, +[4123.62 --> 4129.62] ASUS is committed to G-Sync and the PG278Q because it's the only technology that's actually on the market. +[4129.62 --> 4132.62] In the midterm, they're going to be standards agnostic. +[4132.62 --> 4136.62] I mean, ASUS is notorious for just doing everything. +[4136.62 --> 4137.62] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4137.62 --> 4147.62] Like you look at XFX going from being GeForce exclusive to Radeon exclusive or like EVGA being GeForce exclusive or whatever. +[4147.62 --> 4153.62] ASUS has always just given the old, yeah, you want us to only make Intel boards? +[4153.62 --> 4155.62] You want us to only make AMD boards? +[4155.62 --> 4156.62] You want us to make whatever? +[4156.62 --> 4157.62] We're going to make whatever we want. +[4157.62 --> 4160.62] So, and sometimes that turns into products that make no sense. +[4160.62 --> 4161.62] You porn. +[4161.62 --> 4165.62] But a lot of the time, it uh... +[4165.62 --> 4166.62] Wow. +[4166.62 --> 4169.62] We should get the most and the latest tech to get sponsored. +[4169.62 --> 4170.62] No, we shouldn't. +[4170.62 --> 4171.62] Should I ask this poll topic? +[4171.62 --> 4172.62] No. +[4172.62 --> 4173.62] Oh yeah, sure. +[4173.62 --> 4175.62] I was like, why not? +[4175.62 --> 4178.62] I thought it was, should we get you porn as a sponsor? +[4178.62 --> 4179.62] No. +[4179.62 --> 4180.62] No, we shouldn't. +[4180.62 --> 4181.62] Oh man. +[4181.62 --> 4188.62] Alright, so anyway, I thought that was just an interesting read through just because not a lot of details have been given by AMD up till now. +[4188.62 --> 4195.62] I think it's great that they're demystifying this for everyone, but unless you've been paying close attention, they've released information very, very slowly. +[4195.62 --> 4196.62] Yeah. +[4196.62 --> 4207.62] Starting with that exclusive CES thing from Anand where they showed it, they showed a tech demo working on a laptop all the way up to now today where we see that the standard has been accepted by VESA and then we're going to continue to move forward from there. +[4207.62 --> 4210.62] But the point is just we're a long way away. +[4210.62 --> 4216.62] Um, so this was where I actually wanted to get you guys Twitter blitzing and this was an interesting topic. +[4216.62 --> 4218.62] I'm not sure that I agree with it. +[4218.62 --> 4219.62] I just thought it was interesting. +[4219.62 --> 4221.62] I'm going to post this in the Twitch chat. +[4221.62 --> 4222.62] I want you guys to check it out. +[4222.62 --> 4224.62] There we go. +[4224.62 --> 4233.62] What I'm going to do is AMD falling behind NVIDIA, because you could look at a lot of the stuff that AMD is doing right now and make arguments for the other way. +[4233.62 --> 4242.62] I thought the R9 295X2 was a really great product and it was a real nod to the people that it's actually supposedly targeted for. +[4242.62 --> 4253.62] Like I am tired of companies coming out and saying we've got an enthusiast grade product and then not actually giving enthusiasts the features that they want and that they deserve. +[4253.62 --> 4259.62] Like a water-cooled card isn't too much to expect an enthusiast to deal with. +[4259.62 --> 4264.62] And I think that treating enthusiasts like babies is not the right approach either. +[4264.62 --> 4266.62] So, I mean, was the product perfect? +[4266.62 --> 4267.62] No. +[4267.62 --> 4269.62] It was, you know, kicks out a lot of heat. +[4269.62 --> 4274.62] And of course you have to have a case that has an open 120mm mount for the radiator and all of that stuff. +[4274.62 --> 4275.62] But that's okay. +[4275.62 --> 4277.62] That's what made it enthusiast ready. +[4277.62 --> 4282.62] But I thought that this post was, uh, I thought that this post was pretty interesting. +[4282.62 --> 4284.62] And I want to hear from you guys. +[4284.62 --> 4288.62] We're going to start with a straw poll, but I also want you to Twitter blitz us as well. +[4288.62 --> 4291.62] Um, and here, let me get, let me get that straw poll up. +[4291.62 --> 4293.62] Did you post, can you post that in the chat just for me to click on? +[4293.62 --> 4294.62] Yeah. +[4294.62 --> 4295.62] Thank you. +[4295.62 --> 4297.62] It seems like the quickest way to share a link. +[4297.62 --> 4298.62] Oh, for crying out loud, I clicked the wrong one. +[4298.62 --> 4299.62] If you scroll up, it'll pause the... +[4299.62 --> 4300.62] I know. +[4300.62 --> 4301.62] I can get it though. +[4301.62 --> 4302.62] There you go. +[4302.62 --> 4303.62] Okay, we've got it. +[4303.62 --> 4305.62] So let's put the, uh, the FreeSync versus G-Sync thing on here. +[4305.62 --> 4308.62] But I want to get more from you guys actually. +[4308.62 --> 4317.62] I want to know, do you, do you value what Nvidia's doing in terms of things like GameStream, in terms of things like ShadowPlay? +[4317.62 --> 4320.62] Although AMD does have a better competitor for ShadowPlay. +[4320.62 --> 4321.62] Yeah. +[4321.62 --> 4325.62] Um, as well as what they're doing in terms of things like G-Sync, where they're basically saying, +[4325.62 --> 4328.62] okay, look, the standard needs to exist. +[4328.62 --> 4333.62] Maybe in the long term G-Sync doesn't end up being that important. +[4333.62 --> 4338.62] But if we could bring it to market two years earlier than the competitor, would that be worth it? +[4338.62 --> 4339.62] And just kind of going for it. +[4339.62 --> 4344.62] Or do you prefer to see them just focus on making graphic cards? +[4344.62 --> 4348.62] So I'd like to, uh, I'd like to hear from you guys about that. +[4348.62 --> 4350.62] So here's the G-Sync versus FreeSync thing. +[4350.62 --> 4353.62] So we've got 57% of you saying G-Sync. +[4353.62 --> 4356.62] And I'd actually, feel free to Twitter blitz about this as well. +[4356.62 --> 4359.62] I'd like to hear why G-Sync or why FreeSync. +[4359.62 --> 4364.62] I mean, reasons that I can think of off the top of my head are G-Sync's here right now. +[4364.62 --> 4371.62] Um, reasons I can think of against G-Sync are, Nvidia has, to my knowledge, no intention of opening it up to anyone else, +[4371.62 --> 4373.62] whether it's Intel or AMD. +[4373.62 --> 4376.62] Um, although I think Intel would be more likely. +[4376.62 --> 4378.62] Um, as like a licensing deal. +[4378.62 --> 4379.62] But, uh. +[4379.62 --> 4385.62] What do you think in terms of, like, what are the actual market percentages for Nvidia versus AMD right now on graphics cards? +[4385.62 --> 4386.62] Um. +[4386.62 --> 4388.62] Like what's Steam's things? +[4388.62 --> 4389.62] Let's, let's pull it up. +[4389.62 --> 4390.62] Let's pull up the hardware survey. +[4390.62 --> 4398.62] But last time, last time I was in retail, I know that in terms of sales numbers, it was about 60-40 to 70-30, +[4398.62 --> 4400.62] depending on the day of the week for Nvidia. +[4400.62 --> 4401.62] Okay, yeah. +[4401.62 --> 4405.62] That's what I kind of found fairly interesting, is this isn't quite 60-40. +[4405.62 --> 4409.62] So are we just getting whatever graphics card people have in their systems? +[4409.62 --> 4416.62] Well, I'm wondering, I'm wondering, well, okay, one way you can look at it is, in a lot of cases, whatever graphics card people have in their systems +[4416.62 --> 4419.62] are what they're going to be voting for in this type of a poll. +[4419.62 --> 4420.62] Yeah. +[4420.62 --> 4421.62] Yeah, no, that makes sense. +[4421.62 --> 4425.62] So it's not necessarily even a fanboying thing, it's just whatever they're standing behind in any form. +[4425.62 --> 4426.62] Alright, so here's the latest... +[4426.62 --> 4430.62] But what I'm trying to say is that FreeSync is getting more credit than I actually expected it to. +[4430.62 --> 4431.62] Right. +[4431.62 --> 4432.62] In this poll. +[4432.62 --> 4439.62] So the latest Steam hardware survey, which I think is a great way of polling gamers particularly, like ignoring the casuals, +[4439.62 --> 4445.62] is 50% Nvidia, 30% AMD, and about 20% Intel. +[4445.62 --> 4446.62] So that sounds about like what I said. +[4446.62 --> 4451.62] So if you looked at this, if you tried to pull this directly across, G-Sync should have gotten a lot more votes. +[4451.62 --> 4452.62] Yes. +[4452.62 --> 4456.62] So it seems like generally more people are getting actually behind FreeSync. +[4456.62 --> 4457.62] It's an interesting takeaway from the poll. +[4457.62 --> 4458.62] Just as an open standard. +[4458.62 --> 4459.62] Yeah, yeah. +[4459.62 --> 4460.62] Sort of. +[4460.62 --> 4461.62] Sort of, I guess. +[4461.62 --> 4466.62] I mean, it's something open if Nvidia chooses not to support it because... +[4466.62 --> 4468.62] But they choose not to. +[4468.62 --> 4469.62] Do they choose? +[4469.62 --> 4470.62] Do they choose? +[4470.62 --> 4471.62] I wonder. +[4471.62 --> 4477.62] Because is it choosing if you have to specifically enable it on a hardware level on the graphics card? +[4477.62 --> 4478.62] Or is that just not having... +[4478.62 --> 4479.62] I don't know. +[4479.62 --> 4480.62] We'll have to see how this shakes down. +[4480.62 --> 4485.62] It's going to be two years before we have a clear idea of how these two compete in the market. +[4485.62 --> 4486.62] Yeah, that's interesting. +[4486.62 --> 4492.62] I mean, locking into my next graphics card upgrade, I have to confess, makes me pretty uncomfortable. +[4492.62 --> 4493.62] Me too. +[4493.62 --> 4494.62] It's a big deal. +[4494.62 --> 4497.62] Like buying a monitor for $800, right? +[4497.62 --> 4499.62] And then knowing... +[4499.62 --> 4502.62] Because a monitor is something I expect to keep for five or six years. +[4502.62 --> 4503.62] Yeah. +[4503.62 --> 4504.62] Whenever I make that investment. +[4504.62 --> 4510.62] So you're buying that really expensive, really nice monitor on the notion that you have to buy the right graphics card for the next while. +[4510.62 --> 4511.62] That's right. +[4511.62 --> 4512.62] I have to hope... +[4512.62 --> 4513.62] That they don't screw up. +[4513.62 --> 4522.62] That they don't screw up and have, you know, another GTX, you know, 480 generation where it's just not that competitive and it runs really hot. +[4522.62 --> 4523.62] Or not even 480. +[4523.62 --> 4525.62] I don't think 480 was even the problem. +[4525.62 --> 4526.62] Let me just try to think. +[4526.62 --> 4527.62] Right! +[4527.62 --> 4531.62] Back when AMD had already refreshed and Nvidia still only had 285s to compete. +[4531.62 --> 4532.62] Right. +[4532.62 --> 4537.62] There was like, there was a big gap there where Nvidia just had nothing to compete with. +[4537.62 --> 4538.62] Is that why they skipped 300 series? +[4538.62 --> 4539.62] I'm not sure. +[4539.62 --> 4542.62] I actually don't know the, uh, I don't know the story behind that. +[4542.62 --> 4543.62] I still don't get that. +[4543.62 --> 4545.62] It drives me crazy. +[4545.62 --> 4549.62] Every single time I try to explain like graphics cards to people, they'll be like, you missed +[4549.62 --> 4550.62] one. +[4550.62 --> 4552.62] I'm like, no, no, no, I didn't. +[4552.62 --> 4553.62] No. +[4553.62 --> 4555.62] I don't understand either, but no, I didn't. +[4555.62 --> 4556.62] All right. +[4556.62 --> 4558.62] Let's go ahead and have a, have a look at some of these tweets. +[4558.62 --> 4559.62] All right. +[4559.62 --> 4560.62] If Twitter ever loads. +[4560.62 --> 4561.62] Yeah. +[4561.62 --> 4562.62] All right. +[4562.62 --> 4563.62] Twitter. +[4563.62 --> 4564.62] Yay. +[4564.62 --> 4569.62] Alexander Hoke says, I hate the Nvidia only thing, although I understand it. +[4569.62 --> 4573.62] The argument that they want to improve the experience, they argue that they want to improve +[4573.62 --> 4575.62] the experience of all gamers, but do the opposite. +[4575.62 --> 4580.62] They also want all gamers to be using Nvidia products. +[4580.62 --> 4585.62] And whether I buy it or not, part of their whole spiel when they originally unveiled G-Sync +[4585.62 --> 4589.62] was that they were legitimately trying to improve the experience of all gamers by pushing +[4589.62 --> 4591.62] this technology onto the market. +[4591.62 --> 4592.62] And that kind of worked. +[4592.62 --> 4593.62] And it kind of worked. +[4593.62 --> 4596.62] AMD announced FreeSync three months later. +[4596.62 --> 4599.62] VESA ratified it a few months after that. +[4599.62 --> 4604.62] Like for better or for worse, the ball wasn't rolling to our knowledge until Nvidia rolled +[4604.62 --> 4605.62] the ball. +[4605.62 --> 4606.62] So. +[4606.62 --> 4607.62] Yeah. +[4607.62 --> 4608.62] Whoa. +[4608.62 --> 4611.62] Just Melee already says. +[4611.62 --> 4613.62] Posted today, Crytek UK shuts down. +[4613.62 --> 4615.62] Deep Silver takes over Homefront the revolution. +[4615.62 --> 4616.62] Oh, look at that. +[4616.62 --> 4618.62] Sorry to hijack. +[4618.62 --> 4620.62] Someone just tweeted this to me. +[4620.62 --> 4621.62] Wow. +[4621.62 --> 4622.62] This must've been. +[4622.62 --> 4625.62] So I guess they're downsizing if nothing else. +[4625.62 --> 4626.62] Yeah. +[4626.62 --> 4629.62] PC Authority, Crytek UK shuts down. +[4629.62 --> 4630.62] Interesting. +[4630.62 --> 4634.62] So guys, here's the news for that. +[4634.62 --> 4636.62] I'm surprised I didn't spot this earlier. +[4636.62 --> 4637.62] Because it's 20 hours ago. +[4637.62 --> 4638.62] 20 hours? +[4638.62 --> 4639.62] No, it has zero comments though. +[4639.62 --> 4640.62] That's what I mean. +[4640.62 --> 4641.62] That's weird. +[4641.62 --> 4642.62] That's weird. +[4642.62 --> 4643.62] Why did it say it was 20 hours ago? +[4643.62 --> 4645.62] Maybe it was written 20 hours ago. +[4645.62 --> 4646.62] Look. +[4646.62 --> 4647.62] Whoa, weird. +[4647.62 --> 4648.62] Yeah. +[4648.62 --> 4650.62] Maybe they wrote it, but they were waiting to, uh, waiting to publish. +[4650.62 --> 4651.62] Maybe. +[4651.62 --> 4652.62] So there you go. +[4652.62 --> 4657.62] Crytek shuffles staff as Homefront once again causes developer casualties in recent weeks. +[4657.62 --> 4660.62] Bah, da, da, da, da, unpaid wages, et cetera. +[4660.62 --> 4661.62] Has announced it has acquired the Homefront first person shooter franchise. +[4661.62 --> 4664.62] Is that because it's causing casualties on the Homefront? +[4664.62 --> 4665.62] Wow. +[4665.62 --> 4670.62] Deep Silver has already agreed to co-publish the game, but now owns the IP and will keep +[4670.62 --> 4672.62] all the work that Crytek already performed. +[4672.62 --> 4673.62] Wow. +[4673.62 --> 4674.62] Wow. +[4674.62 --> 4675.62] Okay. +[4675.62 --> 4676.62] On to Twitter. +[4676.62 --> 4677.62] Let's see. +[4677.62 --> 4678.62] Alright. +[4678.62 --> 4684.62] Um, Cole says, yeah, I feel like AMD is falling behind too much. +[4684.62 --> 4688.62] I feel like Nvidia may have the edge except Titan Z was a big failure. +[4688.62 --> 4691.62] Titan Z is a weird product to me. +[4691.62 --> 4695.62] It really felt like, um, like just kind of because we can. +[4695.62 --> 4697.62] Like I, I don't really, I don't know. +[4697.62 --> 4698.62] They were expected to do so though. +[4698.62 --> 4699.62] Yeah, I know. +[4699.62 --> 4701.62] I, I just, I think. +[4701.62 --> 4702.62] I think. +[4702.62 --> 4703.62] Because you wanted us to? +[4703.62 --> 4707.62] I mean, the thing is, is if you actually look at the pricing scheme for it. +[4707.62 --> 4708.62] 150%. +[4708.62 --> 4709.62] 150%. +[4709.62 --> 4712.62] It's about the same as R9 295 X2. +[4712.62 --> 4716.62] It's just that R9 290 X's are cheaper than Titans, but then you could make the argument +[4716.62 --> 4721.62] that GTX 780 is just as good as a Titan from a gaming standpoint. +[4721.62 --> 4723.62] So it's just not priced for gamers. +[4723.62 --> 4725.62] And I, and I, I get that. +[4725.62 --> 4728.62] I just, I wish Nvidia's messaging was a little bit more clear sometimes. +[4728.62 --> 4731.62] Like it was the same with Shield tablet where the first thing they said to us when we got +[4731.62 --> 4734.62] in the room was this is a tablet first. +[4734.62 --> 4738.62] We wanted it to be a really great tablet for gamers. +[4738.62 --> 4742.62] And then all the demos were gaming demos except for the stylus demo. +[4742.62 --> 4743.62] Yeah. +[4743.62 --> 4748.62] And so I was like, you, you guys are, you guys have your heads so far into the gaming +[4748.62 --> 4749.62] scene, which is good. +[4749.62 --> 4750.62] I mean, I get that. +[4750.62 --> 4755.62] It's just that sometimes, especially in your, in your marketing communication, you forget +[4755.62 --> 4759.62] that a product was designed for more than just gamers like the tablet. +[4759.62 --> 4760.62] And it's really interesting. +[4760.62 --> 4766.62] That review has like 2000 comments on it of people discussing shield tablet and people +[4766.62 --> 4772.62] anywhere from, I think it's stupid shield portable two should have been released with Tegra K1 +[4772.62 --> 4776.62] all the way to people being like, yeah, I actually don't really give any cares about game stream, +[4776.62 --> 4778.62] but this looks like a great tablet. +[4778.62 --> 4780.62] I plan to buy one K1 is fast. +[4780.62 --> 4781.62] Yeah. +[4781.62 --> 4784.62] And I'm a go for it, which is, which was really interesting to me. +[4784.62 --> 4786.62] It's a very wide ranging market. +[4786.62 --> 4791.62] It's not like a GPU where a lot of people like a very large amount of people are just like, +[4791.62 --> 4792.62] yeah, it needs to go quickly. +[4792.62 --> 4796.62] I think it's actually, there's a huge amount of use cases for it. +[4796.62 --> 4801.62] Eric apparently feels like AMD is falling behind with Nvidia having the backing to create this new stuff. +[4801.62 --> 4802.62] Bomb mask. +[4802.62 --> 4805.62] I think AMD has dropped the ball on driver support. +[4805.62 --> 4808.62] You know, what's funny is over the last couple of years. +[4808.62 --> 4815.62] So since Linus media group formed, I just am, I'm tired of NVIDIA has crap drivers. +[4815.62 --> 4816.62] AMD has crap drivers. +[4816.62 --> 4817.62] You know what? +[4817.62 --> 4818.62] They both have problems. +[4818.62 --> 4826.62] I can get just as mad about AMD not supporting custom resolutions as I can about what's the stupid thing on Nvidia side. +[4826.62 --> 4827.62] They support custom resolutions. +[4827.62 --> 4829.62] But when we were trying to get that thing working. +[4829.62 --> 4830.62] Yeah. +[4830.62 --> 4831.62] Yeah. +[4831.62 --> 4832.62] I'm trying to remember. +[4832.62 --> 4833.62] They didn't support. +[4833.62 --> 4834.62] Shoot. +[4834.62 --> 4835.62] I don't remember anymore. +[4835.62 --> 4840.62] It's in our video about super, super sample anti aliasing. +[4840.62 --> 4847.62] Where basically we couldn't get something working because Nvidia didn't support one basic feature and AMD didn't support some other basic feature. +[4847.62 --> 4857.62] They both have issues and we've seen them both swing back and forth in terms of stability within games, stability in SLI and crossfire and all that stuff. +[4857.62 --> 4862.62] For some reason on my personal rig using GeForce Experience, I can't download drivers. +[4862.62 --> 4863.62] Right. +[4863.62 --> 4867.62] It'll download like most of the way and then just be like no connection to whatever server thing. +[4867.62 --> 4868.62] Right. +[4868.62 --> 4869.62] I'm just like, okay, thanks. +[4869.62 --> 4873.62] And then there was that issue that I had on the mini PCs when I was trying to benchmark. +[4873.62 --> 4874.62] Yeah. +[4874.62 --> 4886.62] Where installing the proprietary vendor specific driver off of the manufacturer of the Box's website would install GeForce Experience, which would then download a newer generic driver that just wouldn't work on the machine. +[4886.62 --> 4889.62] Like there's just, neither of them is perfect. +[4889.62 --> 4890.62] Let's not pretend that they are. +[4890.62 --> 4891.62] That's all I have to say. +[4891.62 --> 4896.62] I prefer G-Sync because it's available and it's proven to work. +[4896.62 --> 4899.62] I prefer FreeSync because I much prefer open to closed. +[4899.62 --> 4904.62] How will you deal with freezing temps in Canada and your whole room one loop project? +[4904.62 --> 4905.62] Great question. +[4905.62 --> 4908.62] We're in Vancouver, so it typically doesn't fall below around minus five here. +[4908.62 --> 4914.62] G-Sync is cool, but it's just unfair to not let AMD use it, especially because of the prices. +[4914.62 --> 4916.62] It's not unfair. +[4916.62 --> 4918.62] Totally not unfair. +[4918.62 --> 4923.62] You develop a technology, you leverage that technology, you don't give it to your competitor. +[4923.62 --> 4932.62] I mean, if we created a completely new way of making videos, are we going to just like bring every other YouTuber in and give them a tutorial? +[4932.62 --> 4935.62] Actually though, well the YouTube scene is a little different. +[4935.62 --> 4936.62] I think we share a lot. +[4936.62 --> 4937.62] We actually probably would. +[4937.62 --> 4938.62] We probably would. +[4938.62 --> 4939.62] But yeah. +[4939.62 --> 4942.62] Xaver says, smooth gaming now. +[4942.62 --> 4943.62] G-Sync is great. +[4943.62 --> 4944.62] I'm getting an ROG Swift. +[4944.62 --> 4945.62] Want it now. +[4945.62 --> 4947.62] I would go with FreeSync because it's the same thing. +[4947.62 --> 4949.62] Except a less expensive option. +[4949.62 --> 4950.62] That is a theory. +[4950.62 --> 4954.62] We have no idea how much a FreeSync monitor is going to cost. +[4954.62 --> 4956.62] By that time, who knows? +[4956.62 --> 4960.62] G-Sync may be extremely inexpensive because of how mature it is. +[4960.62 --> 4962.62] Because of how long it's been in production. +[4962.62 --> 4966.62] Whereas whenever a new product or a new technology drops. +[4966.62 --> 4967.62] It's expensive. +[4967.62 --> 4968.62] But look at 4k. +[4968.62 --> 4969.62] Yeah. +[4969.62 --> 4971.62] How expensive is it for the first year? +[4971.62 --> 4974.62] What fraction of that price can you expect to pay for it the next year? +[4974.62 --> 4984.62] So, while FreeSync is still hot and new and exciting and there's that pent up demand from AMD users who have wanted some kind of a solution but don't want to go Nvidia. +[4984.62 --> 4986.62] I think it's going to be expensive at the beginning. +[4986.62 --> 4991.62] FreeSync is here now and AMD hasn't been specific on performance, even beta benchmarks. +[4991.62 --> 4994.62] You can't benchmark this, that's not really the way it works. +[4994.62 --> 4997.62] Basically it just does what it does. +[4997.62 --> 4999.62] It's not a benchmarkable thing. +[4999.62 --> 5002.62] When the graphics card is finished rendering a frame, +[5002.62 --> 5006.62] it outputs it to the monitor which refreshes only when there's a new frame. +[5006.62 --> 5008.62] That's the way it works. +[5008.62 --> 5011.62] Tim says open standards over exclusive. +[5011.62 --> 5013.62] Jow says we need new technology. +[5013.62 --> 5016.62] FreeSync is good because it's here right now. +[5016.62 --> 5019.62] Okay, G-Sync is already here and almost available. +[5019.62 --> 5021.62] FreeSync has quality loss. +[5021.62 --> 5023.62] That's actually something I wasn't aware of with FreeSync, +[5023.62 --> 5025.62] so I would have to look into that a little bit more. +[5025.62 --> 5028.62] G-Sync is better because I use it right now and it's amazing. +[5028.62 --> 5030.62] Alright, fair enough, Quantum. +[5030.62 --> 5032.62] It really is kind of amazing. +[5032.62 --> 5034.62] I have no extensive use with it. +[5034.62 --> 5036.62] I should lend you the Swift. +[5036.62 --> 5038.62] I wonder why. +[5038.62 --> 5040.62] Well, the other monitor got taken apart by the NCIX Tech Tips team +[5040.62 --> 5042.62] and they haven't put it back together for me yet. +[5042.62 --> 5044.62] I told them I'm not putting it back together, +[5044.62 --> 5046.62] so they need to put it back together for me +[5046.62 --> 5048.62] and they just keep dragging ass on it. +[5048.62 --> 5050.62] Alright, RuckDoc says, +[5050.62 --> 5053.62] I'd rather see a video card company focus on video cards. +[5053.62 --> 5056.62] I can do video recoding and streaming with other things better. +[5056.62 --> 5058.62] Interesting point, but what you... +[5058.62 --> 5062.62] Actually, you know, if we give Valve a little bit more time to build, +[5062.62 --> 5063.62] you know, an Android version of Steam, +[5063.62 --> 5068.62] we could see in-home streaming show up on Android without NVIDIA Game Stream. +[5068.62 --> 5070.62] So maybe RuckDoc has a point. +[5070.62 --> 5073.62] If we're willing to wait a little bit longer, maybe we don't need any of that stuff. +[5073.62 --> 5077.62] I already have a G-Sync monitor, so I couldn't really vote any other way. +[5077.62 --> 5081.62] Amintha says, no, I don't think AMD is falling behind. +[5081.62 --> 5083.62] NVIDIA and AMD are focusing on different things +[5083.62 --> 5086.62] and that will both be important to improve the industry. +[5086.62 --> 5089.62] I mean, something that we didn't mention at all is Mantle. +[5089.62 --> 5092.62] Mantle is coming for a lot of games. +[5092.62 --> 5093.62] Yeah. +[5093.62 --> 5096.62] More than I would have expected back when they first announced it. +[5096.62 --> 5100.62] Let me just see if I can find the list of upcoming games. +[5100.62 --> 5102.62] I find when most people guess, the guess is far too low, +[5102.62 --> 5105.62] which is a good thing, actually, because then they'll be coming out with more. +[5105.62 --> 5107.62] So hopefully there's actually something you're interested in. +[5107.62 --> 5109.62] Yeah, here we go. +[5109.62 --> 5112.62] So here... this is from videocards.com. +[5112.62 --> 5114.62] So we've got games that are here now. +[5114.62 --> 5118.62] So that's Battlefield 4, Thief, Sniper Elite 3, not quite... +[5118.62 --> 5119.62] Not yet available with Mantle. +[5119.62 --> 5121.62] As well as Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare. +[5121.62 --> 5124.62] We've got games that are unreleased but have confirmed Mantle support. +[5124.62 --> 5129.62] Star Citizen, Civilization, Mirror's Edge, Battlefield Hardline, Sims 4. +[5129.62 --> 5131.62] Like, big deal games. +[5131.62 --> 5134.62] Even if you don't like The Sims, The Sims is huge. +[5134.62 --> 5136.62] Yeah, just... it's important. Deal with it. +[5136.62 --> 5137.62] Yeah, it is. +[5137.62 --> 5138.62] That's all we have to say. +[5138.62 --> 5140.62] And then there's unreleased with Mantle support pending. +[5140.62 --> 5142.62] And there's a bunch of other really interesting stuff in there. +[5142.62 --> 5146.62] Sleeping Dogs, Grand Theft Auto 5, like all this crazy stuff. +[5146.62 --> 5154.62] I guess for me the thing that I need to see is I need to see how Mantle actually ends up stacking up against DirectX... +[5154.62 --> 5155.62] DirectX 12. +[5155.62 --> 5156.62] Yeah. +[5156.62 --> 5164.62] So... and I mean, people thinking that Mantle spurred on Microsoft to bring DirectX 12 to market. +[5164.62 --> 5166.62] Guys, that's not what happened. +[5166.62 --> 5169.62] DirectX 12 has been in the works for quite some time already. +[5169.62 --> 5173.62] It's not... it's not like Microsoft said... this is what we kind of thought at the time. +[5173.62 --> 5174.62] Yeah. +[5174.62 --> 5176.62] Because we just knee-jerk reactioned it. +[5176.62 --> 5178.62] It's not like Microsoft hadn't been listening at all. +[5178.62 --> 5181.62] It made sense with the evidence that we had at the time. +[5181.62 --> 5182.62] Yes. +[5182.62 --> 5186.62] In the... in the... with the release schedule of information that we had at the time, it kind of made sense. +[5186.62 --> 5188.62] But no, they've been working on DirectX 12 for a long time. +[5188.62 --> 5192.62] It is a lower level API and it is going to bring some real improvements. +[5192.62 --> 5196.62] So it remains to be seen which is going to be more important moving forward. +[5196.62 --> 5199.62] And who knows, OpenGL is in the mix as well. +[5199.62 --> 5203.62] But at least they're... kind of like the G-Sync thing. +[5203.62 --> 5212.62] At least AMD is pushing and going, okay, well, if we can have Mantle support a year earlier than waiting for the rest of the industry to catch up, then hey, we can do that. +[5212.62 --> 5214.62] We can deliver better performance to our users. +[5214.62 --> 5223.62] And especially with buying more expensive, potentially somewhat proprietary monitors, I see this as much more impactful than G-Sync or FreeSync anyway. +[5223.62 --> 5227.62] So G-Sync or FreeSync seems to be the big versus conversation. +[5227.62 --> 5231.62] But those games coming out with Mantle on them, I think might actually be a big deal. +[5231.62 --> 5234.62] If it turns out to actually be a big deal. +[5234.62 --> 5236.62] Lima says AMD may release something big soon. +[5236.62 --> 5238.62] I don't know. Maybe. +[5238.62 --> 5242.62] I was supposed to have a call with them this week and that didn't happen, so I don't know anything. +[5242.62 --> 5246.62] Dilan says, I want them to wait and release something substantial instead of these gimmicks. +[5246.62 --> 5249.62] I don't like Apple, but take notes from them. +[5249.62 --> 5252.62] Interesting. Wait and release something substantial. +[5252.62 --> 5259.62] Is what you're saying that you would like to see them wait for a new graphics card to release a new technology alongside it? +[5259.62 --> 5262.62] I'm not entirely sure. Yeah, I don't know. +[5262.62 --> 5270.62] Because I like seeing stuff like DirectX 12 compatibility announced retroactively for previous graphics cards. +[5270.62 --> 5273.62] Or stuff like GameStream. +[5273.62 --> 5277.62] Or some of the new stuff that they did with Shield Tablet that's now coming to Shield Portable. +[5277.62 --> 5283.62] I mean all that kind of stuff. I love to see the technology just continue to roll. Never mind new products. +[5283.62 --> 5284.62] Yeah. +[5284.62 --> 5292.62] FreeSync has been patient since 2008, so Nvidia is behind and used AMD stuff. +[5292.62 --> 5294.62] Not really how it works, TechNews. +[5294.62 --> 5301.62] The one with the product on the shelf in the store is first. +[5301.62 --> 5305.62] Yeah. Like anyone who's watched Pirates of Silicon Valley. +[5305.62 --> 5308.62] We shipped first. It doesn't matter. +[5308.62 --> 5316.62] So this is interesting. In a lot of countries, Nvidia and AMD are not that price competitive, but usually it's the other way around. +[5316.62 --> 5319.62] Where Nvidia asks for a bit more of a premium for their products. +[5319.62 --> 5321.62] So I'm not sure where you're from, the lion gamer. +[5321.62 --> 5325.62] Nvidia definitely has an edge with New Shield Tablet, but fell a bit behind with Titan Z. +[5325.62 --> 5330.62] Okay, fair enough. AMD will fall behind because of the GTX 880 and 880 Ti. +[5330.62 --> 5332.62] We don't know anything about these cards yet. +[5332.62 --> 5333.62] Yeah. +[5333.62 --> 5337.62] If these are what we think they might be, marginally better performing parts with better power consumption, +[5337.62 --> 5340.62] they're not exactly going to turn the market on its head. +[5340.62 --> 5348.62] A lot of gamers don't even look at power consumption or noise when they shop for a graphics card. +[5348.62 --> 5357.62] They look at an FPS chart and in that respect, AMD performs very well from a price to performance ratio standpoint. +[5357.62 --> 5363.62] Raptor adds some features Nvidia has, but AMD to AMD, but it is too bloatware-ish. +[5363.62 --> 5365.62] Yeah, Raptor, I know, I know. The game... +[5365.62 --> 5369.62] Okay, they said they have a new update. It's either coming or it just came. +[5369.62 --> 5371.62] That's supposed to be way better. They asked us to check it out. +[5371.62 --> 5373.62] So maybe we'll have a look at it at some point. +[5373.62 --> 5374.62] Yeah. +[5374.62 --> 5375.62] I just want... +[5375.62 --> 5379.62] I'll have a look at it on a drive that I fully intend to just like multi... +[5379.62 --> 5381.62] Like, what is it called? Boot and Nuke? +[5381.62 --> 5384.62] So maybe we can have a look at AI Suite while we're at it. +[5384.62 --> 5385.62] Oh God. +[5385.62 --> 5389.62] Patalito Jones. I just want all video cards to come with backplates installed. +[5389.62 --> 5392.62] Yes, please! Oh my goodness. You man. +[5392.62 --> 5393.62] Yeah, dog. +[5393.62 --> 5394.62] Yeah. +[5394.62 --> 5395.62] All right, well... +[5395.62 --> 5396.62] Oh, I agree. +[5396.62 --> 5401.62] I think that is almost it. We have one more thing to do before the show ends, +[5401.62 --> 5403.62] unless you had something else you wanted to mention. +[5403.62 --> 5405.62] Do we have any other rapid-fire topics? +[5405.62 --> 5407.62] Oh yeah, we have two more things. Two more things. +[5407.62 --> 5409.62] So first up... +[5409.62 --> 5410.62] Okay. +[5410.62 --> 5412.62] There's this guy, right? +[5412.62 --> 5413.62] There's this guy. +[5413.62 --> 5415.62] He has this like YouTube channel or something. +[5415.62 --> 5417.62] We need everyone to be attentive here for a sec. +[5417.62 --> 5419.62] Yeah, we need everyone's full attention. +[5419.62 --> 5421.62] Let me just bring up... +[5421.62 --> 5425.62] Let me just bring up his email here, because this guy... +[5425.62 --> 5426.62] This guy said a thing. +[5426.62 --> 5432.62] I think he didn't believe in the power of the WAN show audience. +[5432.62 --> 5435.62] So yeah, I'm pumping you guys up here. +[5435.62 --> 5440.62] Logan, from Tech Syndicate, is giving away his car. +[5440.62 --> 5443.62] So this is already crazy. +[5443.62 --> 5445.62] And then he got even crazier. +[5445.62 --> 5456.62] He's hand delivering both his car, his personal vehicle, and a gaming PC to the winner anywhere in the contiguous United States. +[5456.62 --> 5459.62] I think Canada was actually also included. +[5459.62 --> 5462.62] But then the craziest thing he said was, +[5462.62 --> 5466.62] Hey Linus, do you mind mentioning it on the WAN show? +[5466.62 --> 5468.62] And I kind of went, Oh yeah, no problem dog. +[5468.62 --> 5474.62] But you know, should I kind of get everyone to Zerg rush it all at once? +[5474.62 --> 5478.62] Or should I try to like spread it out a little bit so they don't all go at once? +[5478.62 --> 5481.62] And he kind of went, WAN show audience, come on. +[5481.62 --> 5488.62] They're not going to all hit our site at once, sign up for this contest, and you cause any problems with our server. +[5488.62 --> 5497.62] So we are going to stress test the Tech Syndicate server because I want all of you guys to go sign up to win a car and a gaming PC. +[5497.62 --> 5499.62] Of course, if you qualify for the contest. +[5499.62 --> 5502.62] So please crash their website is basically what we're asking. +[5502.62 --> 5504.62] I'm saying please go to their website. +[5504.62 --> 5506.62] I'm saying please crash their website. +[5506.62 --> 5510.62] But do it by registering and signing up for the, Yup, wrecked. +[5510.62 --> 5511.62] Is it down?

+[6149.06 --> 6149.50] Noctua. +[6149.92 --> 6151.34] Noctua by Enthalpy. +[6151.42 --> 6151.82] I'm trying to find it. +[6152.82 --> 6156.06] That would have won if I was picking them just because it's called Noctua. +[6156.22 --> 6159.52] Project Blank has a lot of Noctua fans. +[6160.44 --> 6161.06] Where is it? +[6162.94 --> 6163.54] Uh-huh. +[6163.54 --> 6165.50] That's something we should maybe. +[6165.92 --> 6167.54] Is it actually Project Blank? +[6168.26 --> 6169.06] I don't think so. +[6169.14 --> 6170.42] Oh, it must be this. +[6170.74 --> 6171.94] Ah, it's because they're single screenshots. +[6172.16 --> 6173.02] I'm tripping myself out. +[6173.10 --> 6173.42] We're good. +[6173.50 --> 6173.94] I got it. +[6174.26 --> 6178.94] So this is the single screenshot that was submitted for this build, I do believe, unless this is also his. +[6179.02 --> 6179.50] Yes, it is. +[6180.40 --> 6181.70] This is why this is confusing. +[6181.88 --> 6182.80] There's only supposed to be one. +[6183.14 --> 6184.14] What are you doing, Whaler? +[6185.14 --> 6187.90] Anyways, 23 Noctuas in a custom loop. +[6187.90 --> 6191.40] All 23 Noctuas are on external radiators. +[6191.40 --> 6192.40] Wow. +[6192.84 --> 6197.48] Is that just like, is that your personal, is that in your multi-million dollar house? +[6198.32 --> 6198.72] No. +[6198.96 --> 6207.62] My multi-million dollar house would have like a, it would have a fluid to fluid heat exchanger. +[6207.84 --> 6213.00] And then it would have one loop that goes underground so that it's actually just cooled by the earth. +[6213.14 --> 6215.68] And then it would have another loop that exchanges heat with that one. +[6215.68 --> 6218.20] So that's how it would get all the system heat out of my house. +[6218.52 --> 6218.92] Perfect. +[6219.04 --> 6220.02] That's how that would work. +[6220.32 --> 6220.60] Yes. +[6220.78 --> 6221.18] Obviously. +[6221.40 --> 6222.38] Okay, I should have known. +[6222.68 --> 6222.82] Yeah. +[6222.84 --> 6223.22] I'm sorry. +[6223.34 --> 6223.64] Duh. +[6223.76 --> 6223.98] Yeah. +[6224.28 --> 6224.76] Duh. +[6224.94 --> 6225.28] Oops. +[6225.60 --> 6225.96] Duh. +[6226.36 --> 6227.40] That's pretty freaking cool. +[6227.60 --> 6228.40] Yeah, that's badass. +[6228.60 --> 6232.92] I like that he's actually like showing off his rig very in the open. +[6233.28 --> 6233.42] Yeah. +[6233.46 --> 6235.52] I also really can appreciate those quick disconnects. +[6235.60 --> 6235.72] Yeah. +[6235.72 --> 6237.16] Because those are like my favorite thing ever now. +[6238.08 --> 6239.42] People like shirt off for Riot. +[6239.54 --> 6243.52] I'm sweating so much that if I took my shirt off, I would just be so shiny. +[6243.52 --> 6244.16] The camera wouldn't even be able to see me. +[6244.16 --> 6245.76] It would look like he was oiled. +[6245.96 --> 6246.18] Yeah. +[6246.72 --> 6248.86] Because I'm feeling the exact same way. +[6249.00 --> 6249.20] Maybe I am. +[6249.20 --> 6249.68] Maybe he is. +[6249.98 --> 6250.16] Yeah. +[6250.16 --> 6252.54] Oh man, this looks cool. +[6252.76 --> 6254.18] I wonder if... +[6254.18 --> 6257.88] I want to know if he would do it differently. +[6259.22 --> 6259.62] Who?

Various DDR4 pricing news will be coming later on, +[95.12 --> 99.36] and the Star Wars Unaltered trilogy could possibly be coming to Blu-ray. +[99.36 --> 101.68] Yay! +[101.68 --> 102.40] Perfect. +[102.40 --> 124.72] Did you guys realize that we've never missed a WAN show since we started broadcasting? +[124.72 --> 131.84] Do you have any idea what kind of dedication that takes? Or at least what kind of copious amounts of sponsorship money it takes? +[132.48 --> 137.12] Lynda.com is proud to sponsor the WAN show this week! +[137.12 --> 141.92] Well, Lynda.com is a fantastic way to learn a new skill. +[141.92 --> 145.04] Want to learn something new? Visit Lynda.com slash WAN show. +[145.84 --> 150.80] And that will be great. You will get a free trial for nothing.

I'm pretty sure we've missed a WAN show. +[176.88 --> 177.60] I don't think so. +[177.60 --> 178.56] What about when we were in Taiwan? +[178.56 --> 181.44] No individual ones of us have missed WAN shows. +[181.44 --> 181.92] Have one? +[183.76 --> 183.92] Oh. +[184.56 --> 186.88] Was that WAN show or was that live stream? +[187.36 --> 189.04] Oh, WAN show. +[189.04 --> 191.04] Since we started WAN show. Marketing WAN show. +[191.04 --> 194.96] I think it's been, yeah, it's been over a year we haven't missed a WAN show. +[194.96 --> 195.60] Yeah, okay. +[195.60 --> 201.44] One of us has managed to

+[206.72 --> 209.12] I mean as- +[209.12 --> 210.96] Most statutory holidays we both come in. +[210.96 --> 216.72] Yeah, as long as we don't have a baby together, there's no reason that we'd ever have to miss one. +[216.72 --> 218.16] Is that like a hospital stream? +[219.28 --> 221.60] People are asking for an ice bucket. +[221.60 --> 226.96] I think an ice bucket may be in the future of at least one of the people sitting on this couch right now. +[226.96 --> 231.28] So I think I just got, I think I just got elected or whatever. +[231.28 --> 232.32] Did you just get challenged? +[232.32 --> 233.20] By Timmy. +[233.20 --> 233.76] By Timmy? +[233.76 --> 234.48] I think so. +[234.48 --> 235.04] Very nice. +[235.04 --> 237.44] He sent me a YouTube link and was like, hashtag slick. +[237.44 --> 238.40] Hashtag slick. +[238.40 --> 239.84] That's how it's gonna be. +[240.56 --> 241.12] All right. +[241.12 --> 248.24] So speaking of how it's gonna be, how it's always been, and how it forever will be, I think that was the first thing I said. +[248.24 --> 252.40] But if you don't think about it too hard, it won't make your brain hurt. +[253.44 --> 259.84] Valve is the number one most desirable employer in the gaming industry. +[259.84 --> 267.20] They surveyed 2,200 companies, and people even ranked working for Valve above having their own company. +[269.20 --> 271.04] Oh man, that's kind of insane. +[271.04 --> 274.56] Well, to be clear, having your own company ain't all it's cracked up to be. +[274.56 --> 277.20] But having your own company always gets rated extremely highly. +[277.20 --> 278.24] Does it? +[278.24 --> 279.20] Usually, yeah. +[279.20 --> 281.28] In almost all industries it gets rated pretty highly. +[281.28 --> 282.56] This is something I didn't know. +[282.56 --> 285.36] So this was a survey with 2,200 game devs. +[285.36 --> 289.12] This was posted on the forum by lots of unexplainable. +[289.12 --> 291.04] I think you're looking for the word inexplicable. +[291.60 --> 292.80] Unexplainable. +[292.80 --> 295.60] I think technically that is grammatically correct. +[295.60 --> 296.32] I think so. +[296.32 --> 297.44] Okay, well. +[297.44 --> 298.64] Lots of unexplainable lag. +[299.60 --> 303.68] Anyway, thank you for posting it on the forum, however much your username has confused me. +[303.68 --> 304.32] Sorry, carry on. +[305.20 --> 310.72] Yeah, I think in a wide set of industries, having your own company is rated very highly, +[310.72 --> 314.32] but then you also have to remember that this is coming from people that haven't run their own company. +[314.88 --> 315.12] Right. +[316.08 --> 317.12] Yeah, right. +[317.76 --> 318.88] So that's a thing. +[318.88 --> 322.96] So as someone who has run their own company, there are benefits. +[323.68 --> 329.84] However, it's not like I have a hard time selling people on coming to work for me because +[330.56 --> 334.64] I think that they understand that it's not all just benefits. +[335.84 --> 338.72] Like, like my, both my parents have ran their own companies. +[338.72 --> 340.72] I did for a very small period of time. +[341.04 --> 343.68] And I know you're running one right now. +[343.68 --> 345.60] And it's, it's, it's, yeah, it's not easy. +[345.60 --> 346.88] There are good things about it. +[346.88 --> 348.48] There are definitely good things about it. +[348.48 --> 351.36] I set my own hours, but that's also one of the worst things about it. +[351.36 --> 356.56] Because you set, because to be very successful, you kind of need to set a very large amount of hours. +[356.56 --> 366.72] I think there's this, there's this weird assumption that as a CEO, you could just be like, well, I'm going to take 876 days of vacation like George Bush did in his term. +[366.72 --> 373.12] But I think what it actually turns into is you end up working usually double hours for like almost every week. +[373.12 --> 373.60] Yeah. +[373.60 --> 386.44] And I mean, the thing too, though, is if you have a fantastic team that's able to support you, like I was able to take a week off where I was pretty much completely unplugged for the birth of my new baby girl. +[386.44 --> 390.44] If you have that, then that's great. +[390.44 --> 396.44] But most self-employed people work really long and really hard in order to get to that point. +[396.44 --> 399.72] So, I mean, I was lucky to be able to do it for a week. +[399.72 --> 403.40] For me to take a two week vacation, it's probably going to be a little while longer. +[403.40 --> 405.16] I'm going to have to add some more staff. +[405.16 --> 409.04] And so it's one of those things where you can have a very small business. +[409.04 --> 410.60] Like I've crunched the numbers. +[410.60 --> 412.56] I've been honest with you guys about this. +[412.68 --> 413.86] I've crunched the numbers. +[414.46 --> 424.74] What kind of money could I make as a YouTuber with my kind of following just like me and a chess tripod pumping out videos that are completely unedited? +[424.94 --> 425.52] You know what? +[425.56 --> 429.84] I could pay myself a lot more, like multiples more. +[429.84 --> 443.76] But that's not really the point because if you're trying to build a sustainable business, you have to invest and you have to spend a lot of money on people who can support the business and actually help to grow it if you get really good people. +[444.38 --> 448.64] So that's the thing that every business owner has to struggle with. +[449.02 --> 450.74] And you look at any industry. +[450.84 --> 452.02] So let's look at the gaming industry. +[452.34 --> 454.34] Like an indie dev has to decide. +[454.34 --> 455.30] You work crazy hours too. +[455.30 --> 460.96] Do I work crazy stupid hours to make the game myself from scratch? +[461.08 --> 467.66] Or do I pay crazy money to build this team that then I'm banking on being able to pay back? +[467.68 --> 470.00] And then you have all that stress and then you're not sleeping anyway. +[470.42 --> 475.22] So it's not the best thing ever, even though there are definitely benefits. +[475.38 --> 477.14] And I know indie devs that have gone both ways. +[477.54 --> 479.10] So I don't know. +[479.82 --> 481.76] I do know that as well, actually. +[484.40 --> 485.26] Alrighty then. +[485.90 --> 490.66] Now to be clear, Valve's internal structure is not universally praised. +[490.82 --> 493.68] I mean, I don't think anyone complains about the snack room. +[493.96 --> 495.34] No, no, no. +[496.34 --> 498.86] I think our snack room isn't exactly amazing. +[499.28 --> 501.38] I actually have an upgrade to our snack room. +[501.52 --> 501.72] Do you? +[501.98 --> 502.40] Yes. +[502.54 --> 505.02] It's a gumball machine that legitimately works. +[506.12 --> 507.74] But you have to put money in it. +[508.04 --> 509.20] Oh no, of course. +[510.72 --> 512.02] Oh man, of course. +[512.14 --> 513.20] It was mine when I was a kid. +[513.20 --> 514.86] My aunt brought it over to my house. +[515.08 --> 516.46] And I was just like, oh sweet. +[516.56 --> 517.40] I think it takes quarters. +[517.86 --> 518.00] Okay. +[518.26 --> 518.42] Yeah. +[518.56 --> 519.40] I had a... +[519.40 --> 523.82] My neighbor at one point in time had this like old school pot machine that you had to put money into. +[523.82 --> 527.06] But then he had just cut a hole so the money just fell back out. +[527.46 --> 528.48] Yeah, that's not going to happen. +[528.64 --> 529.20] I know. +[529.30 --> 529.96] Great idea though. +[530.44 --> 531.52] I like the way you think. +[531.52 --> 535.74] The gumball machine that we got from Super Fun is broken to the point where to get gumballs +[535.74 --> 539.00] out of it, you just take the top off, reach in and pull the gumballs out and then put the +[539.00 --> 539.50] top back on. +[539.50 --> 540.34] Not very secure. +[540.48 --> 542.44] I wish I hadn't invested in that gumball machine. +[542.70 --> 543.44] Oh, okay. +[543.68 --> 546.26] Now to be clear guys, not everything is perfect there. +[546.26 --> 551.18] They don't have like a hierarchical hierarchy. +[551.80 --> 552.00] Yeah. +[553.40 --> 555.26] But there's like the... +[556.04 --> 559.76] I don't know what they exactly call it, but there's like obviously Gabe is kind of leading +[559.76 --> 564.62] things and he has his like right hand, left hand kind of group of people which he kind +[564.62 --> 565.86] of has lead other people. +[565.98 --> 566.58] It's just... +[566.58 --> 572.32] It's not like a very clean cut extreme structure, but it's also not completely flat. +[572.32 --> 576.02] So it's been criticized as being a little bit like high school because there'll tend +[576.02 --> 581.08] to be people staking out their own claims and clicks and stuff like that. +[581.40 --> 583.04] Although, I mean, there's some great stuff. +[583.30 --> 584.68] You know, there are no shareholders. +[584.88 --> 587.90] It is a privately held company, so you don't have to ship something unless you're happy +[587.90 --> 588.38] with it. +[589.12 --> 593.44] There's also the fact that you can take as much vacation time as you want, which sounds +[593.44 --> 597.68] kind of like being self-employed because that's just another way of saying, you know, +[597.80 --> 601.90] we have this loose culture where you can work however hard you want. +[601.90 --> 606.18] But like other people are going to be working hard, so... +[606.18 --> 607.14] You can just get fired. +[607.24 --> 608.82] It's almost like a peer pressure system. +[608.84 --> 609.10] Yeah. +[609.32 --> 610.88] As opposed to just... +[610.88 --> 614.74] And I'm sure it'll come down to like if you have some super crazy awesome trip, you +[614.74 --> 615.66] can be like, oh, hey, cool. +[615.72 --> 616.34] This is great. +[616.42 --> 618.78] And a lot of people are going to know what you're doing and you go do that and come +[618.78 --> 619.78] back and then work hard again. +[620.04 --> 620.20] Yeah. +[620.24 --> 622.54] As long as you continue to work hard, it's probably fine. +[622.76 --> 628.40] And the high school thing, I think anytime you ever even try to have any amount of a flat +[628.40 --> 631.64] structure, you're going to run with this many employees, you're going to run into that +[631.64 --> 632.42] type of a situation. +[632.62 --> 637.22] I think anytime you try to add more than a half a dozen employees to a company, never +[637.22 --> 640.72] mind the structure, you're going to end up with high school or daycare or both. +[640.86 --> 644.32] Like, have you ever worked at a big box store of any sort ever? +[645.00 --> 646.68] It's just an extension of high school. +[647.00 --> 649.78] It doesn't even matter how old the people are that worked there. +[649.86 --> 651.24] It's just an extension of high school. +[651.66 --> 653.48] Best Buy was my best example for that. +[653.54 --> 655.64] I used to work in Geek Squad when I was like really young. +[655.64 --> 658.60] When I was in like grade 10, I think I started working in Geek Squad. +[659.26 --> 662.50] And yeah, the whole store is just an extension of high school. +[662.94 --> 663.60] It's ridiculous. +[665.00 --> 668.62] So yeah, again, nothing has really changed here. +[668.96 --> 672.44] Valve has always been that like, everyone wants to go work there because it's awesome +[672.44 --> 674.36] company and they're not EA. +[674.56 --> 674.70] Woo! +[674.70 --> 679.74] And like, cool, they did a study about it. +[679.84 --> 682.78] But yeah, this has been, this has been known for a very long time. +[682.86 --> 683.74] So it's not exactly new. +[683.98 --> 685.28] I got a straw poll for you guys. +[685.36 --> 686.26] I want to hear from you. +[686.70 --> 689.40] What is your workplace like? +[689.92 --> 692.98] So I'm going to hit up the, hit up the Twitch chat with this bad boy. +[693.94 --> 696.18] We'll run that while we do our next topic here. +[696.58 --> 698.74] What do you think ours is out of that? +[698.74 --> 699.98] Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam. +[700.18 --> 701.74] I don't think we're very high school. +[701.74 --> 704.32] Like, I mean, part of it is that. +[705.14 --> 706.62] I think it's how you defend the high. +[706.74 --> 709.26] I mean, I think it's how you define the high school. +[709.26 --> 709.86] Like thing. +[710.12 --> 710.36] Okay. +[710.36 --> 711.32] We're kind of high school. +[711.32 --> 712.58] Like, and that we're very casual. +[712.90 --> 713.06] Yeah. +[713.10 --> 716.92] But we all get along, which is not, I think the connotation of high school. +[716.92 --> 720.86] Like is the clicks and the fighting and the clicks and the pettiness. +[721.00 --> 722.22] I don't think we're very petty. +[722.26 --> 728.04] No, I think we have the, I think we might have some features of a possible high school label +[728.04 --> 728.36] though. +[728.96 --> 729.40] Yeah. +[729.48 --> 731.32] There's like the Friday after work. +[731.32 --> 734.62] When everyone kind of like groups up in the main room and just talks about like random +[734.62 --> 734.98] crap. +[735.66 --> 736.72] I don't know. +[736.74 --> 737.02] Right. +[737.06 --> 740.32] I think we're more that, that bottom one, which no one is voting for. +[740.40 --> 740.64] Yeah. +[740.72 --> 743.02] Mature, cohesive and teamwork focused. +[743.30 --> 744.08] Yeah, dog. +[744.22 --> 744.52] All right. +[744.54 --> 745.28] What's our next topic? +[745.60 --> 751.82] Uh, pretty much some of the same, whereas nothing's ever changed, which is digital distribution +[751.82 --> 753.32] finally reigns the PC market. +[753.32 --> 757.38] I think we've all kind of known this for a long time. +[757.38 --> 761.66] Even in the article, they talk about how in recent, as recently as 2010, there was only +[761.66 --> 763.96] 48% of the game purchases were made digitally. +[764.38 --> 765.30] Isn't that amazing? +[765.48 --> 766.68] That's half in 2010. +[766.68 --> 770.40] Apparently it is now 92% as of 2013. +[771.40 --> 772.76] It's not even 2013 anymore. +[772.84 --> 773.86] It was 92%. +[773.86 --> 774.62] And you know what? +[774.72 --> 779.86] You don't have to be a crazy amazing mathematician to figure out that these are some really big +[779.86 --> 780.18] numbers. +[780.42 --> 783.36] So you look at, okay, you look at a studio, you look at someone like Microsoft. +[783.36 --> 784.78] Did I say Microsoft? +[784.78 --> 784.98] Sorry. +[785.18 --> 785.70] Ubisoft. +[786.54 --> 790.58] I got a lot of hate going on on Microsoft in this episode. +[790.82 --> 791.04] So maybe. +[791.22 --> 792.62] You'll be catching more of that. +[792.64 --> 796.60] So you look at something like, someone like Ubisoft and how they're looking at, okay, well, +[796.72 --> 798.30] 13% or whatever it was. +[798.36 --> 799.46] We talked about this last week. +[799.94 --> 800.72] Our 17%? +[801.14 --> 802.30] I think it was. +[802.34 --> 804.12] Let's say about 15% and hedge our bets. +[804.64 --> 808.70] So over a 10th of their overall business was PC gaming. +[809.28 --> 813.22] Then you look at that and you go, okay, well, Ubisoft's a public company. +[813.22 --> 816.30] You can look up exactly how much revenue they had in a given year. +[816.54 --> 822.34] So then you kind of go, okay, well, Ubisoft makes up whatever slice of the overall gaming +[822.34 --> 823.56] industry that there is. +[823.74 --> 831.54] And wow, holy crap, are we ever talking about a lot of hundreds of millions of dollars that +[831.54 --> 832.58] has shifted to digital. +[833.10 --> 833.58] And so. +[834.88 --> 836.28] Kind of a really big deal. +[836.60 --> 838.54] One thing that I have to say about this though. +[838.76 --> 839.62] It's nice to be Valve. +[840.20 --> 840.44] Yeah. +[840.44 --> 840.80] Yeah. +[840.80 --> 848.86] Is that they're saying as like as recently as 2010, only 48, only 48% of the PC game purchases +[848.86 --> 849.68] were made digitally. +[849.86 --> 851.36] That only is kind of hilarious. +[851.68 --> 857.52] But even since then and before then, it got to the point where it was difficult to buy PC +[857.52 --> 858.20] games physically. +[858.46 --> 858.60] Yeah. +[858.72 --> 862.18] Like there was, there's been a lot of stuff where there was no option. +[862.32 --> 863.86] Well, you like to buy games physically. +[863.86 --> 863.98] I do. +[864.34 --> 867.64] And I try and it's been hard since before 2010. +[867.64 --> 870.12] And now it's not impossible for a lot of different games. +[870.12 --> 871.72] In the last 10 years. +[871.82 --> 873.06] Actually, it's, it's kind of neat. +[873.06 --> 876.02] Cause I'm coming up on 10 years of having known my wife. +[876.02 --> 881.30] So I can kind of like, I can say, okay, I can talk, I can talk about a 10 year period +[881.30 --> 881.88] very easily. +[881.88 --> 888.88] When I met her and we'd go to the mall, it was entertaining for me to go to the EB games +[888.88 --> 891.24] and browse while she went and shopped. +[891.36 --> 891.42] Yeah. +[892.12 --> 897.18] In that time, it's gone from, it actually, the PC gaming made up a significant chunk of +[897.18 --> 902.60] the store to PC gaming is like one side of one unit. +[902.76 --> 905.76] And it's like, it might not even be. +[906.28 --> 909.58] And so they'll have the latest title and they'll have a few copies of that on an end cap. +[909.70 --> 913.52] And then they'll have like some copies of like Starcraft too. +[913.74 --> 914.22] COD and Blizzard. +[914.58 --> 914.98] Yeah. +[915.40 --> 920.90] Or they'll have like, like whatever, some staple type games and then that's it. +[921.22 --> 921.42] Yeah. +[921.74 --> 923.50] So they kind of did it to themselves. +[923.62 --> 926.44] On the other hand, I can understand where they're not stocking it if it's not selling. +[926.66 --> 926.88] So. +[927.04 --> 927.26] Yeah. +[927.66 --> 932.84] But then, yeah, it's like, it's not even just places like EB games though, because I think +[932.84 --> 936.74] a lot of different gaming companies are straight up just not releasing physical copies of the +[936.74 --> 937.04] games. +[937.36 --> 941.60] It's not like EB games is specifically trying not to, or GameStop or whatever, is trying +[941.60 --> 943.64] not to stock these things. +[943.68 --> 946.30] I think they might not even have an option, which is kind of frustrating. +[946.52 --> 946.86] Yeah. +[946.88 --> 950.44] It's not like something like, you know, a humble bundle is realistically going to have +[950.44 --> 951.14] a physical copy. +[951.14 --> 951.20] Exactly. +[951.20 --> 955.62] Or a lot of indie games in general, which are becoming a really big thing recently, or stuff +[955.62 --> 961.22] like League and Dota, which is brought up in here a lot, where a lot of purchases are +[961.22 --> 965.70] going towards stuff like League and in-game micro-style transactions, which are getting +[965.70 --> 967.60] calculated into this percentage number. +[967.86 --> 968.10] Right. +[968.14 --> 971.40] Even though they're not actually a, like, you bought this game. +[971.40 --> 971.58] Yeah. +[971.76 --> 972.90] You bought this game. +[973.04 --> 975.44] It's not that, but it's still being calculated in this number, which it should be. +[976.00 --> 976.66] That makes sense. +[977.20 --> 978.26] But, yeah, I don't know. +[978.26 --> 980.72] I feel like it was forced into this position. +[981.30 --> 985.64] I know there's a lot of people that do prefer the digital distribution style, but I think +[985.64 --> 989.26] people like me, who want physical copies... +[989.26 --> 991.12] I'm raising my donger, too, you just can't tell. +[993.10 --> 994.68] You can tell that I raised mine. +[998.10 --> 998.50] Awesome. +[999.44 --> 1003.72] So, I think people like me that actually want physical games were kind of forced out of +[1003.72 --> 1004.96] being able to buy them. +[1005.72 --> 1008.08] But you guys are basically dumb, so... +[1008.08 --> 1008.26] Yeah. +[1008.90 --> 1011.68] I mean, there are legitimate reasons to need physical games. +[1011.88 --> 1012.98] Slow internet connections. +[1013.64 --> 1017.24] You know, guys in Australia, not that they can buy games at all, because they come out +[1017.24 --> 1021.22] however many months later, it's like, Australia screwed and then screwed again. +[1021.48 --> 1022.10] Screwed some more. +[1022.16 --> 1025.30] When I used to live with my parents, it made a lot of sense, because we didn't have an amazing +[1025.30 --> 1026.02] internet connection. +[1026.34 --> 1029.56] So, it was actually a lot faster to just drive to the freaking store and drive back. +[1029.72 --> 1030.02] Right. +[1030.24 --> 1032.02] Like, it just was. +[1032.52 --> 1035.82] But that being said, a lot of games now, you go to the store and you come back, you put +[1035.82 --> 1037.50] the disc in, and it's like, okay, download it. +[1037.68 --> 1038.28] Yeah, I know. +[1038.74 --> 1039.46] Download this. +[1039.72 --> 1041.24] How big was the patch for... +[1042.00 --> 1042.26] 50? +[1042.84 --> 1043.14] Sorry? +[1043.34 --> 1043.90] 50 gigs? +[1044.70 --> 1045.32] You're talking about COD? +[1045.32 --> 1045.76] Yeah. +[1045.76 --> 1047.08] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. +[1047.08 --> 1049.46] I know there was another one that we installed recently. +[1049.58 --> 1051.96] It was a PC game, and it had something like a 6 gig patch. +[1052.02 --> 1052.76] Was it Battlefield 4? +[1054.00 --> 1056.36] There was like a day one or day two patch. +[1056.48 --> 1057.20] Yeah, I don't remember what it is. +[1057.22 --> 1057.74] Can't remember. +[1057.96 --> 1058.88] Might have been Battlefield 4, yeah. +[1058.88 --> 1059.42] Yeah, it's ridiculous. +[1059.52 --> 1060.52] I know Titanfall was back. +[1060.52 --> 1061.72] Titanfall's 50 gigs. +[1061.90 --> 1062.12] Yeah. +[1062.42 --> 1063.46] So, I get that. +[1063.56 --> 1064.06] I get that. +[1064.30 --> 1064.52] Yeah. +[1065.02 --> 1067.64] Alright, so what's our next topic here? +[1068.40 --> 1070.80] More news about high prices of DDR4. +[1071.04 --> 1071.42] Yeah. +[1071.56 --> 1072.96] Oh, should I go get our DDR4? +[1072.96 --> 1074.40] Oh, no, we already showed that last week. +[1074.40 --> 1079.24] Anyway, we have other DDR4, but it might be on a test bench. +[1082.04 --> 1082.80] He doesn't... +[1082.80 --> 1084.42] He means like he laid it on. +[1084.60 --> 1085.68] Yeah, that's what I mean. +[1085.84 --> 1086.02] Yeah. +[1086.16 --> 1090.26] I didn't say anything about having a motherboard and a DDR4 compatible CPU, of course. +[1090.28 --> 1091.48] It's just sitting on the test bench. +[1091.78 --> 1096.06] Mind you, if you were to, you know, type anything about DDR4 into Google, well, whatever. +[1096.12 --> 1098.20] I'm reading all the same rumors you guys are reading, right? +[1098.20 --> 1098.68] Of course. +[1098.82 --> 1111.82] So, anyway, Australian site PC Case Gear and UK site Scan.co.uk both released pre-order prices on some Corsair DDR4 products, including their new Vengeance series, as well as Dominator Platinum. +[1111.82 --> 1120.56] So, we are looking at pricing that is double digits, percentages more expensive than DDR3. +[1120.56 --> 1130.18] However, and this was originally posted on the forum by Blueprint, there's another article that spins it in a bit of a different way. +[1130.28 --> 1134.04] And this was originally posted by Lukapy, and it's from Overclock 3D. +[1134.04 --> 1143.92] G.Skill, their RipJaws 4 3000MHz DDR4 kit, which may or may not be on one of my test benches. +[1144.32 --> 1145.10] Laying on it. +[1145.22 --> 1145.92] Yeah, laying on it. +[1145.98 --> 1146.80] That exact kit. +[1146.82 --> 1149.58] In the package still, because there's obviously nothing to put in it. +[1149.70 --> 1155.70] Is actually going to be priced pretty similarly to a 3000MHz DDR3 kit. +[1155.70 --> 1159.24] To which I kind of go, okay, well that's cool. +[1159.66 --> 1171.94] Because at least those hyper-overclock DDR3 kits that hardcore enthusiasts who want lots of cores on their CPU, for example, might have been inclined to go towards anyway. +[1172.34 --> 1174.38] At least those will be fairly similar. +[1174.56 --> 1181.08] Although, I could also make a lot of arguments for us not really needing 3000MHz DDR3 kits in the first place. +[1181.14 --> 1182.16] And we've made those videos. +[1182.16 --> 1192.02] So anyway, the G.Skill 1 is priced at 360 Great Britain pounds, whereas 8GB kits of DDR3 at that speed are 320 Great Britain pounds. +[1192.38 --> 1194.32] So, there you go. +[1195.90 --> 1203.52] I don't think that really applies to a ton of people, but it is interesting to see that maybe there isn't the most massive price hike ever. +[1203.74 --> 1210.14] And to people looking at it going, okay, yeah, they run at the same frequency, but the DDR4 kit is going to have looser timings. +[1210.14 --> 1219.60] Something that Little Bird told me is that primary timings might not be as much of a concern with DDR4. +[1219.84 --> 1231.24] And we might be looking at a situation where actually playing around with secondary timings called so because they're not the main five timings of a DDR memory module, +[1231.24 --> 1236.62] but rather they're more about inter-DIMM communication and that kind of stuff. +[1236.62 --> 1250.90] Those secondary timings may actually end up being very, very important and something that the maker won't really be able to advertise in the traditional sense. +[1250.90 --> 1258.60] So we're either going to see memory manufacturers shift towards giving us a much deeper set of timings when they spec out their RAM, +[1258.80 --> 1261.90] or people might just end up being pretty confused for a bit here. +[1262.94 --> 1264.26] So, there you go. +[1264.66 --> 1265.94] It's going to be pretty interesting. +[1266.40 --> 1273.76] Although, that is still, no matter how much you want to say like, oh yeah, well this kit, compared to this ridiculous kit, is actually not that bad of a deal. +[1273.76 --> 1276.88] Still way too expensive for me. +[1277.70 --> 1280.64] I will jump on that bandwagon much further in the future. +[1281.20 --> 1284.66] Did you, okay, have you been an early adopter to any memory tech? +[1285.18 --> 1285.40] No. +[1286.16 --> 1287.34] I waited for DDR3. +[1288.24 --> 1289.46] I waited for DDR2. +[1289.76 --> 1295.52] Because the first DDR3 platform was what, LGA 1366? +[1295.52 --> 1301.66] No, the first DDR3 platform was 775, but it made no sense at that point. +[1301.86 --> 1310.10] I think this is the first time in a while, actually, that we haven't seen a single socket have multiple memory platform compatibility. +[1310.64 --> 1318.72] Because it's always been this early stages, very expensive time period has been at a time when it doesn't really make any sense to buy it anyway, +[1318.86 --> 1322.48] because it performs the same and it's on a chip that was really designed for the previous technology. +[1322.48 --> 1325.58] Yeah, because I had Dominators on 775, which were DDR2. +[1325.74 --> 1331.44] Yeah, because moving from DDR1 to DDR2, when AMD was really the enthusiast platform of choice, +[1331.62 --> 1337.06] we did get new SKUs and we did get a new socket, but we didn't actually get a microarchitecture update. +[1337.26 --> 1337.48] Right. +[1337.60 --> 1339.04] So it was the same performance. +[1339.32 --> 1342.40] You could just pay more for memory or not pay more for memory. +[1342.96 --> 1347.68] And that series of processors was very dependent on latency. +[1347.68 --> 1353.98] So DDR1 performed really well in the real world, aside from, you know, just running memory bandwidth benchmarks. +[1353.98 --> 1356.88] The DDR1 to DDR2 change was the most hilarious. +[1357.24 --> 1357.44] Yeah. +[1357.56 --> 1359.14] And then DDR2 to DDR3. +[1359.22 --> 1361.46] No, I think DDR2 to DDR3 was pretty stupid. +[1361.46 --> 1362.20] Yeah. +[1362.20 --> 1369.68] Because basically that was the P45 days when pretty much Gigabyte or Asus or whoever would +[1369.68 --> 1374.72] have like the motherboard for DDR2 and then the motherboard for DDR3. +[1374.94 --> 1382.06] This one would be like $100 more, not faster, less stable because early DDR3 was bad. +[1382.06 --> 1386.44] I saw more people blindly adopting DDR2 than I saw people blindly adopting DDR2. +[1386.44 --> 1389.74] Well, they probably got burned when DDR2 was bad. +[1390.40 --> 1390.88] Probably. +[1390.88 --> 1395.76] I mean, DDR2, that was the N4 680i days. +[1395.90 --> 1396.06] Yeah. +[1396.18 --> 1400.72] Like that was when the problem was the chipset was bad, like the enthusiast chipset of choice +[1400.72 --> 1404.98] was terrible, and the memory was just not validated properly. +[1405.12 --> 1412.68] Like I remember OCZ SLI sticks of memory, putting them into 680i boards. +[1412.88 --> 1418.86] They were only supposed to work in one board, and they wouldn't work. +[1418.86 --> 1423.74] I used to hate how they did naming at that time frame with like SLI and all that kind of stuff. +[1423.74 --> 1424.90] It's like, go away. +[1424.90 --> 1434.32] Speaking of which, both OCZ and using existing branding to try to sell completely unrelated products. +[1434.40 --> 1434.82] Great segue. +[1435.28 --> 1435.78] Thank you. +[1436.74 --> 1437.46] Here we go. +[1437.76 --> 1439.12] Oh, I got the whole doc up here. +[1439.12 --> 1442.16] This was originally posted by Brainless906 on the forum. +[1442.16 --> 1448.22] And AMD is planning to, well, not planning to, they're planning to sell. +[1448.34 --> 1449.68] I guess they have already released. +[1450.08 --> 1451.86] They're AMD SSDs. +[1452.06 --> 1456.50] So they're calling these the R7240 or something like that. +[1456.50 --> 1463.66] I remember it being funny because when my review sample arrived, the box was labeled R7240, and +[1463.66 --> 1465.06] then the description was video card. +[1465.32 --> 1469.34] Because a lot of these companies, when they fill out their invoices, they just have a standard +[1469.34 --> 1471.24] one that they put kind of no matter what they're shipping. +[1471.52 --> 1472.74] So it just says video card. +[1472.80 --> 1474.68] I'm like, why would they send me an R7240? +[1476.86 --> 1479.04] But actually it was an R7 series SSD. +[1479.04 --> 1482.80] So it's based on the OCZ Barefoot 3 controller. +[1483.06 --> 1486.88] It's got some Toshiba 19 nanometer class NAND on it. +[1487.50 --> 1489.22] There are a few reviews out. +[1489.36 --> 1492.34] Basically it's, it's an SSD. +[1492.70 --> 1494.06] It's not terribly expensive. +[1494.22 --> 1495.66] It does come with a four year warranty. +[1496.46 --> 1499.36] It's more expensive than the 840 Evo. +[1499.70 --> 1500.90] It is a little bit faster. +[1503.26 --> 1505.00] It comes with a cloning software. +[1505.40 --> 1508.98] To me, this is, this is kind of one of those things where I look at it and go, if you +[1508.98 --> 1515.78] were really determined to build like an AMD outed system, then you could buy this. +[1516.40 --> 1517.36] And it would be fine. +[1517.52 --> 1518.42] There's nothing wrong with it. +[1518.46 --> 1520.70] There's nothing wrong with the Barefoot 3 controller, truthfully. +[1520.72 --> 1522.84] It's just, it's, it's boring. +[1523.38 --> 1523.70] Yeah. +[1524.00 --> 1525.92] It's another commodity SSD at this point. +[1525.98 --> 1529.12] I feel like we don't really need another SSD player. +[1529.16 --> 1532.74] We have a number of very strong SSD players. +[1532.98 --> 1533.20] We kind of don't. +[1533.88 --> 1537.78] Yeah, we kind of don't have another SSD player because nothing on this is actually manufactured +[1537.78 --> 1538.78] or designed by AMD. +[1538.98 --> 1539.30] No. +[1539.42 --> 1542.98] I understand why they might want to get into the market that way. +[1543.04 --> 1544.32] I mean, that's how OCZ did it. +[1544.32 --> 1549.82] They went from rebranding Indalinks and Sanforce controllers to designing their own IP and their +[1549.82 --> 1552.64] own controller by acquiring Indalinks, mind you. +[1552.84 --> 1554.30] But, but they still did it. +[1554.72 --> 1559.14] And you look at even companies like Intel where sometimes they design their own controller. +[1559.56 --> 1560.84] Sometimes they just write a firmware. +[1560.84 --> 1562.84] But they're always using their own flash. +[1562.86 --> 1565.18] You look at guys like SanDisk where they use their own flash. +[1565.26 --> 1566.86] They actually fab flash. +[1567.18 --> 1570.02] So even though they're using someone else's controller, they're contributing something +[1570.02 --> 1570.44] they made. +[1570.60 --> 1575.94] In this case, AMD is coming in very late, contributing nothing that they've actually designed or manufactured. +[1575.94 --> 1579.78] And the pricing is fine. +[1579.78 --> 1586.42] It's just not going to be, you can never compete with someone like Samsung who is fully integrated. +[1586.74 --> 1586.84] Yeah. +[1586.98 --> 1589.94] Where they're taking the margin on the flash manufacturing. +[1590.22 --> 1592.70] They're taking the margin on the controller manufacturing. +[1592.70 --> 1596.44] They're taking any margin that would exist in terms of a software license. +[1596.66 --> 1600.56] And they're taking the margin on the finished drive that they put in a box and deliver to +[1600.56 --> 1601.08] the customer. +[1601.44 --> 1603.54] So at every level, they're taking their margin. +[1604.02 --> 1606.00] So how was AMD supposed to compete with that? +[1607.14 --> 1608.02] Yeah, I don't know. +[1608.40 --> 1612.82] I was fairly underwhelmed because they had all that hype build for this. +[1613.70 --> 1615.86] Well, the hype might be for something else as well. +[1615.96 --> 1616.46] I'm not sure. +[1616.54 --> 1618.56] I think they have a live stream scheduled this weekend. +[1618.80 --> 1620.82] Although it's at 7 a.m. my time. +[1620.82 --> 1622.78] So they were like, Linus, are you going to tune in? +[1622.96 --> 1624.98] I'm like, no. +[1625.12 --> 1627.58] Was the live stream for this weekend for the Star Citizen thing, though? +[1627.72 --> 1628.14] I don't know. +[1628.58 --> 1630.78] I don't think we can say what the live stream this weekend is for. +[1630.82 --> 1631.32] Because they tweeted. +[1631.32 --> 1632.24] I know what it's for. +[1632.36 --> 1632.82] Don't try to. +[1632.82 --> 1633.26] I'm not trying to. +[1633.32 --> 1633.86] Oh, okay. +[1633.92 --> 1634.34] I'm trying to. +[1635.78 --> 1639.30] God, we have to like play into the rumors that are out there. +[1639.38 --> 1640.40] Okay, what are the rumors? +[1640.48 --> 1642.96] There was a tweet for, let me see if I can find it. +[1643.42 --> 1644.34] Oh, jeez. +[1645.14 --> 1647.74] I thought you were going to like break our NDA. +[1648.16 --> 1648.98] No, man. +[1649.20 --> 1649.48] Okay. +[1649.48 --> 1651.20] Chris Roberts? +[1651.40 --> 1651.68] No. +[1652.78 --> 1657.64] I don't know where the tweet is, but someone from AMD was like, you should watch because +[1657.64 --> 1658.68] Star Citizen news. +[1659.08 --> 1659.74] Oh, okay. +[1659.84 --> 1660.88] So I was like, oh, mantle. +[1662.04 --> 1663.62] Because that's probably what that is. +[1664.00 --> 1664.30] Maybe. +[1664.82 --> 1665.16] I don't know. +[1665.16 --> 1666.84] But we already know Star Citizen is getting mantle. +[1666.84 --> 1667.34] I don't know. +[1668.00 --> 1668.84] We already know that. +[1668.88 --> 1669.52] Okay, sure. +[1669.68 --> 1671.78] But like what else is going to be in the Star Citizen news, right? +[1671.78 --> 1676.96] And the Star Citizen actually getting mantle, I think, has been moderately up in the +[1676.96 --> 1677.16] air. +[1677.34 --> 1678.98] I don't know if it was 100% confirmed. +[1678.98 --> 1680.54] No, I think it's a confirmed title. +[1680.70 --> 1680.86] Yeah. +[1681.02 --> 1681.14] Yeah. +[1681.14 --> 1681.34] Yeah. +[1681.34 --> 1681.46] Yeah. +[1681.46 --> 1681.54] Yeah. +[1681.74 --> 1684.74] It doesn't have it yet, but it's confirmed that it will at some point. +[1685.14 --> 1692.18] Although with AMD releasing everything to the OpenGL Kronos group, I don't know how much +[1692.18 --> 1695.30] sense mantle will make by that time Star Citizen actually comes out anyway. +[1695.30 --> 1698.94] By the time Star Citizen actually comes out. +[1699.90 --> 1701.46] The year 2070. +[1701.46 --> 1703.30] All right. +[1703.30 --> 1703.34] All right. +[1703.34 --> 1709.12] So other AMD news that is actually much more exciting, posted by Tech Fanatic, who is our +[1709.12 --> 1713.72] resident AMD news poster, is that Richard Huddy, AMD's gaming site. +[1713.80 --> 1715.12] Wait, didn't we talk about this last week? +[1716.46 --> 1718.20] I don't think so. +[1718.34 --> 1718.70] Oh, okay. +[1718.76 --> 1722.52] Well, if we, just in case we didn't, or just in case we did, we'll cover it, but we'll do +[1722.52 --> 1723.12] it pretty quickly. +[1723.46 --> 1724.08] We might have. +[1724.08 --> 1729.24] So FreeSync is going to be looking at a very minimal cost for monitor manufacturers. +[1729.24 --> 1731.90] It could be between $10 and $20 in total cost. +[1732.18 --> 1738.10] Although something to understand, guys, is that $10 to $20 of cost, the general rule is +[1738.10 --> 1741.74] that by the time the end user actually holds that product, it's going to be about double +[1741.74 --> 1741.98] that. +[1742.48 --> 1746.36] So you have to understand that their retailer is going to want their margin. +[1746.66 --> 1749.34] The manufacturer is going to want their margin. +[1749.34 --> 1755.72] The MDF program that they have with whoever is going to want their margin. +[1755.96 --> 1759.40] They're going to build in some extra margin for people to return the product, because +[1759.40 --> 1762.56] now it's a more expensive product that people might return, and they might not be able to +[1762.56 --> 1763.22] do anything with it. +[1763.38 --> 1764.00] So all those things. +[1764.08 --> 1767.18] We're looking at about double of a bomb cost, typically. +[1768.28 --> 1769.30] So there you go. +[1769.40 --> 1770.88] So it'll add anywhere between $20 and $40. +[1771.24 --> 1772.16] So here's the tweet. +[1772.26 --> 1774.22] It was from AMD Radeon. +[1774.38 --> 1777.92] It says, we know you're excited about Star Citizen from Robert Space Industries. +[1777.92 --> 1782.00] You'll want to tune in to hashtag AMD30 live tomorrow, BitlyLink. +[1782.28 --> 1782.54] Oh, okay. +[1782.66 --> 1782.84] Cool. +[1783.28 --> 1785.58] So I just, yeah, I don't know. +[1785.98 --> 1789.38] So anyway, the exciting thing about it is that we could be looking at FreeSync monitors +[1789.38 --> 1794.60] that are sampling next month and could arrive to consumers in early 2015, which compared +[1794.60 --> 1801.02] to G-Sync, which is here now, is kind of unfortunate, but is not as long as I thought it might take. +[1801.02 --> 1806.84] So if you were looking to hold out sort of a little bit longer as opposed to, you know, +[1806.88 --> 1809.10] another nine months to a year, then you're in luck. +[1809.42 --> 1813.46] Especially with how kind of slowly graphics technology is coming out. +[1813.60 --> 1816.22] If you're pretty good right now, you're probably pretty good for a while. +[1816.44 --> 1816.66] Yep. +[1817.86 --> 1818.46] All right. +[1818.58 --> 1819.18] What else do you have? +[1819.18 --> 1820.38] One of your three monitors. +[1820.60 --> 1821.76] I know you're going to be excited about those. +[1821.76 --> 1822.24] Yeah. +[1822.56 --> 1830.50] So this was posted by Notional on the forum and LG is unveiling three new monitors. +[1830.76 --> 1834.10] A couple of which, well, one of which gets me really excited. +[1834.32 --> 1836.52] One of which gets his panties pretty wet. +[1836.64 --> 1839.76] And the other one of which is almost there. +[1839.94 --> 1840.20] Yeah. +[1840.46 --> 1841.16] For both of us. +[1841.50 --> 1841.82] Yeah. +[1842.26 --> 1842.58] All right. +[1842.62 --> 1845.66] So the original articles on Guru 3D, why don't I do the one that I like? +[1845.76 --> 1845.98] Sure. +[1845.98 --> 1853.40] So that monitor that I love ever so much, the UM9534, I can't even remember the model +[1853.40 --> 1857.94] number because I, 34 UM95 is what I think it is. +[1858.22 --> 1864.04] They are going to be releasing what looks like pretty much a curved version of that. +[1864.58 --> 1867.84] Now, curved displays, we've actually done as fast as possible on this before. +[1868.06 --> 1870.50] They don't make sense in every context. +[1870.94 --> 1873.68] In fact, a lot of the time, they're basically stupid. +[1873.68 --> 1880.84] You should not be buying a 42 inch or even I'd say a 50 inch curved TV for your living +[1880.84 --> 1887.96] room because unless you are a forever alone and you only watch TV by yourself always, the +[1887.96 --> 1893.30] problem is that a curved TV is going to deliver a slightly better viewing experience for someone +[1893.30 --> 1897.68] in the sweet spot, but an actually worse one for anyone who's outside of it. +[1897.96 --> 1900.32] And a flat TV is going to be a better bet in that case. +[1900.32 --> 1905.90] However, once a display gets large enough that multiple people can fit in the sweet spot, +[1905.98 --> 1909.54] so to speak, cram them in there, it starts to make sense. +[1909.98 --> 1913.64] Now with a monitor, A, you don't have to worry about multiple viewers very often. +[1913.96 --> 1918.74] So that threshold for when a display is big enough is going to be more easily achievable. +[1918.74 --> 1922.16] And for number two, this is big enough. +[1923.16 --> 1924.06] 34 inches. +[1924.40 --> 1929.26] Sometimes I feel sitting in front of my monitor at work like a slight curvature would be really nice. +[1929.40 --> 1931.58] So it's 3440 by 1440. +[1931.74 --> 1934.70] I think it's six milliseconds of response time. +[1934.78 --> 1936.24] So pretty much the same as the other one. +[1936.46 --> 1941.42] Nothing special with respect to what they're claiming about input lag or anything like that. +[1941.42 --> 1948.42] So I'm not expecting it to be amazing for gaming the way that the 29 inch one is a little bit better than the existing 34 inch one. +[1949.02 --> 1952.20] But very exciting from a productivity standpoint. +[1952.62 --> 1958.96] And for gamers who are more interested in the immersion, I personally, in spite of our recent surround gaming build guide, +[1958.96 --> 1965.80] I personally find a larger, wider screen without bezels more immersive than bezels. +[1966.04 --> 1972.06] And you'll notice I said very carefully in that video, if you're into this, then this is the ultimate setup. +[1972.46 --> 1974.98] But for me personally, I'd rather have a single screen. +[1975.22 --> 1979.16] I've also never really been into that like multi-monitor surround gaming thing. +[1979.30 --> 1980.10] It makes sense. +[1980.20 --> 1983.00] I've seen it in some situations, especially for flight sims. +[1983.02 --> 1983.96] Yeah, or driving simulators. +[1983.96 --> 1985.04] Or driving, yeah. +[1985.04 --> 1988.90] Yeah, where those, well, those windows aren't, it's not even necessarily a curve. +[1989.02 --> 1990.88] Those are dedicated to windows in the vehicle. +[1990.88 --> 1997.54] Yeah, and if you're supposed to be in a cockpit anyway, what's another, you know, support structure or whatever for the glass, right? +[1997.62 --> 1998.80] Like I'm okay with that. +[1999.24 --> 2000.98] But first person, it doesn't do much for me. +[2001.12 --> 2001.66] Yeah, me neither. +[2001.84 --> 2007.06] So the next one is a 31MU97 31 inch true 4K monitor. +[2008.36 --> 2009.24] The only thing that gets me... +[2009.24 --> 2010.72] You should clarify what true 4K means. +[2010.78 --> 2011.78] I was just going to jump into that. +[2011.88 --> 2012.30] Were you? +[2012.30 --> 2013.28] You were going to jump in? +[2013.28 --> 2020.48] It's 4096 by 2160, which I believe is like 19 by 10. +[2022.88 --> 2024.28] That's what it stated on Wikipedia. +[2024.64 --> 2024.86] Okay. +[2025.20 --> 2029.18] So I was kind of hoping for 16 by 10. +[2029.98 --> 2031.34] But, you know, it's all good. +[2031.52 --> 2032.10] Close enough. +[2032.16 --> 2034.70] And that's kind of the resolution that I've been waiting for for a long time. +[2034.78 --> 2035.60] So excited for that. +[2035.60 --> 2042.54] The only thing that kind of gets me slightly worried about this is the fact that it's 31 inches. +[2042.94 --> 2050.68] I know you have experience with really, really large monitors, but I'm not necessarily sure if I'm ready to jump that high, considering I use 24 inch monitors. +[2050.68 --> 2058.62] But something I have been thinking about for quite a while is getting a really big monitor in the middle of my setup and then setting my two current 24 inch monitors into vertical mode on the side. +[2058.62 --> 2066.00] You know, it's funny you bring that up because, by the way, that aspect ratio is apparently 256 to 135. +[2066.00 --> 2069.72] And that's rounded to the nearest whole number or something. +[2071.82 --> 2073.50] So, yeah. +[2075.86 --> 2076.90] I don't know if that's right. +[2076.96 --> 2079.90] Anyway, the point is width and height. +[2079.98 --> 2081.04] Yeah, I think I entered it right. +[2081.82 --> 2082.38] What were you saying? +[2082.44 --> 2082.64] Right. +[2082.80 --> 2083.62] So size of monitor. +[2083.76 --> 2090.28] When I originally went 30 inch, and I used a 30 inch monitor for a few years, a Samsung 2560 by 1600. +[2090.28 --> 2093.26] Um, I liked it a lot. +[2093.40 --> 2095.66] There was an adjustment period moving to it. +[2096.14 --> 2097.88] And, like, I got used to it. +[2097.88 --> 2099.14] How big was that one again? +[2099.24 --> 2099.76] I was a 30. +[2099.98 --> 2100.22] 30. +[2100.34 --> 2101.18] So I got used to it. +[2101.26 --> 2102.06] But you know what? +[2102.20 --> 2106.32] I've since gone down to 27 inch 16 by 9. +[2106.68 --> 2108.62] And I never miss my 30 inch. +[2108.96 --> 2113.46] I never miss the extra screen real estate once I'm at 1440 tall. +[2113.46 --> 2116.38] When, at 1080 tall, I don't like it. +[2116.48 --> 2120.38] And I would rather have an older 16 by 10 aspect ratio. +[2120.68 --> 2123.16] Or even, even a, maybe even a square one compared to that. +[2123.26 --> 2125.30] I don't like 16 by 9 small wide. +[2125.32 --> 2125.68] Me neither. +[2125.82 --> 2128.12] Which is why I've been sitting on 16 by 10 for so long. +[2128.32 --> 2130.34] And I'd be okay with going bigger than 24. +[2130.70 --> 2133.04] I just don't know if 31 is. +[2133.42 --> 2136.92] 27 is a really nice place to be for a single monitor setup. +[2137.10 --> 2140.28] And honestly, if I was running multi-monitor, I would prefer 24. +[2140.78 --> 2141.00] Yeah. +[2141.00 --> 2144.14] But that's why I've been thinking about that. +[2144.22 --> 2145.76] That one large one in the middle. +[2146.02 --> 2147.68] And then possibly the two verticals on the side. +[2148.02 --> 2149.94] You know what I really want to do as a project? +[2151.14 --> 2152.08] Because, I mean, okay. +[2152.14 --> 2155.40] With both of us, the big issue with multi-monitor is the bezels. +[2156.02 --> 2160.30] But there are a lot of monitors where you can strip them down. +[2160.94 --> 2163.10] And you can take all the plastic stuff away. +[2163.34 --> 2165.60] And end up with very, very thin bezels. +[2165.72 --> 2169.12] Because the bezel is effectively there to protect it a lot of the time. +[2169.26 --> 2170.92] So if it's just going to sit on your desk forever. +[2171.00 --> 2172.36] There's no reason not to remove it. +[2172.70 --> 2175.76] I'd be interested to do like a project build. +[2175.94 --> 2177.54] Where we strip down three monitors. +[2177.86 --> 2179.12] Use our Ergotech stand. +[2179.50 --> 2180.68] And see if that helps. +[2181.48 --> 2182.16] It's not a bad idea. +[2182.16 --> 2183.40] Just kind of sit in front of it. +[2183.56 --> 2184.34] And take it in. +[2184.84 --> 2185.78] And decide. +[2186.76 --> 2188.56] For what exactly though? +[2189.14 --> 2192.56] Because I still think first person kind of style is still going to be messed up. +[2192.56 --> 2197.40] And I still think that kind of cockpit driving style is still going to be awesome. +[2198.04 --> 2200.62] I don't think you can get away from that because of the wrapping. +[2201.64 --> 2201.96] Right. +[2202.22 --> 2205.38] Because you're going to get the weird warping effects on the far side of the screen. +[2205.60 --> 2208.22] Where things are at a really weird angle. +[2208.34 --> 2209.90] They're stretched and they move too quickly. +[2209.90 --> 2213.38] I mean if games had better support for it I think I'd feel better about it. +[2213.50 --> 2214.00] Like if we were. +[2214.22 --> 2218.60] If basically you could set up the game where it's like look here are my three discrete camera angles. +[2218.80 --> 2226.02] I want it to look like I'm turning my head this way as opposed to looking like you know the scene is made of silly putty. +[2226.54 --> 2226.88] Yeah. +[2227.18 --> 2227.78] Yeah exactly. +[2227.92 --> 2229.68] If there was better support I think it would be really cool. +[2229.86 --> 2231.60] But it just like super breaks. +[2231.60 --> 2234.22] In most games that you put it in. +[2234.64 --> 2234.78] So. +[2235.04 --> 2236.94] Unless you're willing to put a fair bit of work into it. +[2237.00 --> 2237.08] Yeah. +[2237.12 --> 2238.84] And then a lot of the time you can fix it. +[2239.10 --> 2239.28] Yep. +[2239.40 --> 2241.18] If you utilize all these little custom tools. +[2241.30 --> 2244.44] And then there's the last monitor which is like almost super cool. +[2244.54 --> 2246.12] It's the 24 GM77. +[2246.46 --> 2250.44] It's a 144 hertz gaming monitor with dynamic action sync. +[2250.44 --> 2252.76] Which drastically reduces input lag apparently. +[2253.28 --> 2255.36] So they're saying less than one in the second response time. +[2255.46 --> 2258.06] Includes a black stabilizer and motion 240. +[2258.06 --> 2263.04] But does not seem to include adaptive sync or G-Sync. +[2264.22 --> 2273.72] I am at a point now where I don't know how I would feel about investing in an expensive gaming monitor that doesn't have G-Sync. +[2273.72 --> 2278.72] We actually have a review upcoming of BenQ's XL2410 something. +[2279.54 --> 2280.76] 2411 something. +[2281.42 --> 2282.26] And we'll have to. +[2283.06 --> 2285.40] Like basically I think Luke's going to be doing that one. +[2285.76 --> 2286.48] That was what we had discussed. +[2286.56 --> 2287.00] I think so. +[2287.28 --> 2287.38] Yeah. +[2287.38 --> 2294.72] So what I've done is I've handed Luke our G-Sync engineering sample ASUS monitor and the BenQ. +[2295.00 --> 2296.88] And the analysis is going to be. +[2297.10 --> 2299.52] Look if G-Sync costs another hundred bucks. +[2300.52 --> 2306.22] Is it worth it to invest in a high refresh rate monitor that doesn't have G-Sync at this point. +[2306.26 --> 2307.64] And I think that's really going to be the angle. +[2308.08 --> 2308.24] Yeah. +[2308.54 --> 2311.12] I haven't gotten that ASUS one from you yet. +[2311.42 --> 2311.66] Yeah. +[2311.90 --> 2312.54] I gave it to you. +[2313.50 --> 2314.90] It's on your desk in there. +[2315.00 --> 2315.14] Oh. +[2315.26 --> 2316.52] You complained about the power adapter. +[2316.52 --> 2317.12] Oh yeah. +[2317.90 --> 2319.18] I was using it for something else. +[2319.28 --> 2322.00] I didn't realize that was like to take and go compare things with. +[2322.06 --> 2322.18] Yeah. +[2322.36 --> 2322.86] Okay, cool. +[2323.04 --> 2323.16] Yeah. +[2323.20 --> 2323.60] Go to town. +[2324.22 --> 2327.08] I was using that for the mouse. +[2327.48 --> 2327.68] Right. +[2327.86 --> 2328.22] G402. +[2328.46 --> 2328.78] Right. +[2329.02 --> 2330.20] Let's see how smooth it was and stuff. +[2330.28 --> 2330.78] You know what? +[2330.78 --> 2334.22] That monitor has like a G-Sync module in it. +[2334.22 --> 2342.72] And I know NVIDIA has the layout for how to make a harness to hook it up to the ASUS 32 4K. +[2343.52 --> 2350.68] If I can get one of those harnesses from them, I am so doing a Frankenstein project and 4K-ing, G-Syncing that monitor. +[2350.76 --> 2351.56] That would be really cool. +[2351.68 --> 2351.88] Yeah. +[2351.88 --> 2355.50] Then I'll bring all the other monitors back to the office and I won't need an upgrade for years. +[2355.90 --> 2356.22] Perfect. +[2356.46 --> 2359.38] Do that so you stop stealing every monitor we ever get. +[2359.58 --> 2359.74] Yeah. +[2359.78 --> 2362.98] The ROG Swift went home so fast. +[2363.30 --> 2363.48] Gone. +[2363.86 --> 2364.82] Never saw it again. +[2364.94 --> 2366.46] I never actually saw it running. +[2367.64 --> 2371.30] From CES when I first saw it, I was like, it's okay. +[2371.94 --> 2376.64] And then when I got it on the desk, actually using it, I took the PA off. +[2376.64 --> 2380.92] Especially stuff like monitors, it's hard to get a proper first impression when you're at a show. +[2381.04 --> 2387.08] At a show is terrible because the lighting's whatever the lighting is and you've got like four minutes of whatever demo they're running. +[2387.84 --> 2391.94] It just is not the right context to have a proper experience. +[2391.94 --> 2397.26] Often that demo is running because it's like repeatable or easy to maintain instead of being the best thing. +[2397.40 --> 2399.68] Or like because a booth babe can fix it if it's broken. +[2400.00 --> 2400.92] Yeah, that's what I mean. +[2401.04 --> 2406.14] Like it's not, they're not going to have catastrophes on the floor where they have to show you that they're running a PC instead of an Xbox. +[2406.64 --> 2410.78] That's what a lot of them are going to be tuned towards. +[2411.56 --> 2412.30] Want to rant? +[2413.88 --> 2414.94] Oh, man. +[2415.40 --> 2415.94] You know what? +[2416.00 --> 2420.52] Why don't we do our sponsor spots and then I'll rant on this product. +[2420.52 --> 2420.92] Okay. +[2422.14 --> 2424.62] I don't, I don't, anyway, okay. +[2424.84 --> 2425.94] Let's do that first. +[2426.06 --> 2431.56] So, big thanks to lynda.com for being a sponsor of the WAN show today, guys. +[2432.14 --> 2436.40] lynda.com is a fantastic place to go and learn a new skill. +[2436.64 --> 2439.18] You can pick up some digital photography tricks. +[2439.28 --> 2441.00] You can pick up some video editing tricks. +[2441.42 --> 2444.02] You can pick up, you know, oh, I don't know. +[2444.28 --> 2446.56] And pretty much it goes beyond hobbies. +[2446.92 --> 2451.16] Like it's cool because the way that their lessons are structured, they're coming from experts. +[2451.38 --> 2456.40] They are set up so you can almost kind of follow along in a course. +[2456.40 --> 2462.96] And if you want to pick up some real programming skills, for example, you use lynda.com as kind of like a pseudo school. +[2462.96 --> 2470.72] So, yeah, they don't award you with, you know, a diploma or whatever else, you know, because, yay, online diplomas are probably worth something. +[2470.80 --> 2481.74] No, it's more about the knowledge that you're actually gaining because there are at least two people here at Linus Media Group who on a day-to-day basis use their lynda.com knowledge that they learn by being subscribed. +[2481.74 --> 2493.40] So, lynda.com slash WAN show for a free seven-day trial because if it's not for you, then you can go ahead and cancel it and you can just go, okay, yeah, this isn't that useful for me or I don't have the time right now or whatever else. +[2493.40 --> 2495.34] And just give it a shot. +[2495.62 --> 2503.96] And if you don't have the time to commit to, like, every day, like, I mean, even some online courses, it's like you attend the seminar at that time. +[2504.30 --> 2505.66] lynda.com doesn't work that way. +[2505.72 --> 2507.04] You can tune in when you want. +[2507.14 --> 2509.84] You can tune out when you want because it's a subscription-based service. +[2509.90 --> 2511.34] So, I guess, ultimately, they don't really care. +[2512.38 --> 2512.78] Yeah. +[2513.08 --> 2513.94] When you're tuned. +[2514.24 --> 2515.28] When you're done. +[2515.34 --> 2516.84] Yeah, that benefits you, too. +[2517.00 --> 2517.16] Yeah. +[2517.28 --> 2519.04] I mean, it's good for everyone that way, I think. +[2519.20 --> 2519.38] Yeah. +[2519.56 --> 2520.82] So, there you go, guys. +[2520.94 --> 2521.58] lynda.com. +[2521.68 --> 2522.08] Thank you. +[2522.08 --> 2523.12] Free seven-day trial. +[2523.12 --> 2525.42] Also, this is fairly exciting. +[2525.50 --> 2527.44] You want to talk about what you're going to be doing at the show? +[2527.92 --> 2534.12] The show, honestly, I expect a lot of what the show is going to be is running around to different motherboard manufacturers, checking out something specific. +[2539.12 --> 2540.30] No more information. +[2540.80 --> 2542.06] Hopefully, that's what's going to happen. +[2542.90 --> 2545.56] We're going to be just like we've been doing for shows for a while now. +[2545.62 --> 2546.64] That's probably really loud. +[2546.80 --> 2547.82] Why is that so loud? +[2547.94 --> 2548.38] I don't know. +[2548.48 --> 2548.94] Sorry about that. +[2549.36 --> 2551.16] Just like we've been doing for shows for a while now. +[2551.16 --> 2555.94] When it's a gaming show, we will be releasing a bulk of it as actually hardware stuff. +[2556.02 --> 2560.24] A lot of the hardware guys are going to these gaming shows because they want to show people that are gaming their hardware. +[2560.68 --> 2561.66] Kind of totally makes sense. +[2561.76 --> 2562.92] I want to show people my hardware. +[2563.08 --> 2564.34] I always show people my hardware. +[2564.34 --> 2567.62] So, yeah. +[2567.70 --> 2568.96] We'll be checking out a lot of that kind of stuff. +[2569.04 --> 2570.58] We'll also be checking out gaming stuff. +[2571.18 --> 2576.90] I'm trying to get in contact with Blizzard, but it doesn't really seem to be working, so we probably won't have any Warlords of Draenor stuff. +[2576.96 --> 2579.70] If anyone from Blizzard's watching, hey. +[2579.86 --> 2580.14] Hello. +[2580.46 --> 2580.98] We're a thing. +[2581.38 --> 2581.72] Thank you. +[2581.72 --> 2586.04] We'll probably have an Indie Mega Booth roundup video. +[2586.46 --> 2588.22] That's been seeming to work well lately. +[2588.34 --> 2594.44] Instead of a whole bunch of individual indie games, we'll just do one top five things that I saw while walking through the Indie Mega Booth. +[2594.56 --> 2596.50] And I'll be down there for Saturday. +[2596.70 --> 2596.96] Saturday. +[2597.02 --> 2598.78] So I'll be around on the show floor on Saturday. +[2598.96 --> 2600.36] So if you run into me, come say hi. +[2600.70 --> 2600.84] Yeah. +[2600.84 --> 2602.82] Hopefully not when I'm in the middle of filming something. +[2603.56 --> 2604.00] Thank you. +[2604.32 --> 2605.02] Just make a hangout. +[2605.26 --> 2610.60] And so we wanted to give a big thanks to HyperX for actually enabling us to be there. +[2610.70 --> 2612.38] So I'm just going to screen show you guys for a second. +[2612.88 --> 2619.26] They actually, they've been asking us a lot lately to kind of draw attention to their HyperX YouTube channel. +[2619.62 --> 2622.68] And I was like, yeah, okay, we can do that. +[2622.68 --> 2627.48] Because a lot of the time, manufacturer YouTube channels are really not that great. +[2627.48 --> 2631.62] But they've actually got some pretty interesting stuff going on here right now. +[2631.70 --> 2633.08] I don't know if you've actually checked it out. +[2633.26 --> 2633.54] I have. +[2633.70 --> 2639.08] But Social Blade is my kind of ultimate creeper thing. +[2639.44 --> 2640.02] And check this out. +[2640.30 --> 2644.00] They've gained 20,000 subscribers in the last 30 days. +[2644.40 --> 2646.26] They have 42,000 subscribers total. +[2646.80 --> 2649.00] They are growing crazy fast right now. +[2649.00 --> 2649.54] They are actually, yeah. +[2649.72 --> 2654.46] And they're putting out a lot of content that I think will be really interesting to people. +[2654.46 --> 2655.34] Like where are these? +[2655.34 --> 2659.38] They had some interviews that are like a quarter million views. +[2659.56 --> 2660.74] Like check this out. +[2662.12 --> 2663.08] Where did it go? +[2663.40 --> 2663.96] Yeah, here we go. +[2664.48 --> 2665.26] I'm a cutie pie. +[2665.46 --> 2665.60] Yeah. +[2665.84 --> 2666.78] 282,000 views. +[2666.92 --> 2668.54] And it's such a simple format. +[2668.98 --> 2672.12] It's like it's 20 questions and they're like the simplest things. +[2672.26 --> 2673.80] Like there's questions about his hair. +[2674.36 --> 2675.96] Like it's not, it's kind of casual. +[2676.24 --> 2677.22] It's pretty cool. +[2677.32 --> 2680.92] And I was like, oh, these guys are actually doing YouTube kind of right. +[2681.20 --> 2681.38] Yeah. +[2681.38 --> 2683.40] Most manufacturers really don't get it. +[2683.44 --> 2685.82] It's like, yeah, we want to put all of our ads on our YouTube. +[2685.82 --> 2688.66] And they have some ads on the YouTube channel too, to be very clear. +[2688.72 --> 2689.78] We even made a couple of them. +[2690.38 --> 2690.78] But. +[2691.50 --> 2695.56] I'm not surprised though, because when we went to go check out their head offices for E3, +[2695.98 --> 2697.00] I got that vibe. +[2697.18 --> 2697.36] Right. +[2697.48 --> 2699.98] From their HyperX tour thing that we got to go through. +[2700.04 --> 2701.52] Checking out like their gaming room and stuff. +[2701.58 --> 2703.06] It was like, okay, yeah. +[2703.22 --> 2705.22] They're actually kind of focused on making something awesome. +[2705.22 --> 2706.58] So guys, yeah. +[2706.68 --> 2710.48] So thanks to HyperX for being our gold sponsor for PAX Prime this year. +[2710.66 --> 2716.08] And guys, check out their YouTube channel if you want to have gaming content and learn +[2716.08 --> 2719.00] about new memory and USB drives and stuff like that. +[2719.22 --> 2719.88] All those good things. +[2720.24 --> 2720.56] All right. +[2720.64 --> 2727.16] So time for, I kind of want to start like a rant segment for Linus Tech Tips, because +[2727.16 --> 2729.16] there's some stuff that I could just, that I could just do. +[2729.22 --> 2729.70] And this isn't. +[2729.70 --> 2730.62] We kind of do. +[2730.62 --> 2732.08] This isn't quite that bad. +[2732.16 --> 2736.26] This is more like a square peg round hole type thing, as opposed to something that's +[2736.26 --> 2737.88] just uniformly terrible. +[2738.00 --> 2741.86] We don't call it a rant segment, but like beats by 50. +[2742.00 --> 2742.88] That was pretty ranty. +[2742.94 --> 2743.96] Or streets by 50. +[2744.14 --> 2744.52] My bad. +[2744.74 --> 2745.10] So. +[2745.38 --> 2745.58] Yeah. +[2745.78 --> 2749.96] You guys probably recognize my daily driver phone, the HTC One M8. +[2751.32 --> 2752.16] Dun, dun, dun, dun. +[2752.74 --> 2753.14] Whoa. +[2753.54 --> 2754.34] Windows phone. +[2754.46 --> 2754.74] Wow. +[2754.80 --> 2755.52] I didn't know about that. +[2755.52 --> 2760.66] So now there's a, there's an HTC One M8 Windows phone edition. +[2760.90 --> 2762.92] It's a Verizon exclusive right now. +[2763.02 --> 2766.94] Although I saw a rumor that Sprint's going to be picking it up as well, which has only +[2766.94 --> 2768.66] caused a little bit of trouble for me. +[2768.84 --> 2770.50] I had to program my APN manually. +[2770.74 --> 2775.90] And then I had to contact HTC directly because Verizon customer support wouldn't do it for +[2775.90 --> 2779.60] me in order to get internet tethering enabled on the phone. +[2779.72 --> 2781.64] I'm like, look, I got my phone working. +[2781.72 --> 2782.38] Everything's cool. +[2782.48 --> 2783.26] Everything's fine. +[2783.26 --> 2787.82] I just need you guys to, because I'm not on your network, so I don't see why you would +[2787.82 --> 2789.06] care if I internet tether. +[2789.32 --> 2793.90] I need you guys to like come out of the stone age and turn that crap on on my phone. +[2794.00 --> 2794.46] Thanks dog. +[2794.74 --> 2799.56] And they were like, oh yeah, we actually can't do that because, um, you know, you're not a +[2799.56 --> 2800.62] Verizon subscriber. +[2800.88 --> 2803.02] I'm like, well, I can't be a Verizon subscriber. +[2803.02 --> 2803.72] I'm in Canada. +[2803.88 --> 2804.78] Do you have service up here? +[2804.88 --> 2805.78] No, I didn't think so. +[2805.88 --> 2812.44] So can I give you the SIM information for the SIM that came in it or the IMEI for the phone? +[2812.44 --> 2817.28] Um, so, uh, so sir, you know, the, the reason that you're having a bad experience with the +[2817.28 --> 2822.10] device is because, you know, you're getting these headaches because it's not a Verizon, +[2822.10 --> 2826.58] uh, network device and it's, or it is a Verizon network device and you're not in the Verizon +[2826.58 --> 2826.76] network. +[2826.90 --> 2827.94] Look, I don't care. +[2828.16 --> 2830.06] I'm not going to be a Verizon customer. +[2830.06 --> 2831.60] I don't live there. +[2831.98 --> 2833.16] Turn the feature on. +[2833.66 --> 2838.00] And then I, so HTC ended up being able to take that care of that for me, but sorry, +[2838.28 --> 2840.30] Verizon rant over, uh, Dietrich W. +[2840.44 --> 2842.16] Thank you for posting this in the forum. +[2842.46 --> 2846.66] Uh, we have some details about it obviously, cause I'm working on my review for it, but +[2846.66 --> 2850.94] it is pretty much exactly the same hardware as the one I made Android edition. +[2851.18 --> 2852.26] There are some changes. +[2852.38 --> 2853.66] The radio is slightly different. +[2853.66 --> 2858.18] So it supports fewer frequencies, which because it's a Verizon exclusive device, I guess that +[2858.18 --> 2858.64] makes sense. +[2858.72 --> 2862.76] Maybe they were able to cost it down a fraction of a couple of pennies or whatever that would +[2862.76 --> 2863.96] work out to in that way. +[2864.40 --> 2870.34] Um, and you know, you fire it up and it's, it's, it's the, the windows phone experience. +[2870.62 --> 2873.24] Do they have the same problem with the glass on the camera? +[2873.66 --> 2874.56] I don't know. +[2875.04 --> 2876.44] I don't know if that's been resolved. +[2877.14 --> 2881.08] Um, I just, I know, I know some people would care about that, so I'm not really sure. +[2881.40 --> 2881.80] Yeah. +[2882.98 --> 2887.82] It's really hard to say when it's brand new, but I'll be using it for at least a couple +[2887.82 --> 2892.44] of weeks to get a really good impression of what's going on with this phone because I, +[2892.50 --> 2897.94] I want to be fair to it, but I'm running into a lot of issues and they're not related +[2897.94 --> 2898.98] to the one in eight. +[2898.98 --> 2902.04] The one in eight is a fantastic piece of hardware. +[2902.14 --> 2903.54] This is a great device. +[2903.74 --> 2904.30] I love it. +[2904.56 --> 2910.84] The problem is that I really don't feel like windows phone, the experience scales for an +[2910.84 --> 2911.44] enthusiast. +[2911.64 --> 2919.26] I feel like for basic functionality, text messages, email, phone navigation, once you pull the +[2919.26 --> 2924.12] crappy Verizon navigator off and put on a real one, um, which you can find for free in the, +[2924.18 --> 2924.68] in the store. +[2925.16 --> 2930.84] I feel like it's fine for all that, but if you're actually trying to do anything on it, +[2931.20 --> 2933.28] there's just how? +[2933.28 --> 2934.28] No. +[2934.28 --> 2936.70] And it's, it's just, it's little stuff like, okay. +[2936.70 --> 2939.56] Um, there's no hangouts client. +[2939.56 --> 2940.56] Like really? +[2940.56 --> 2944.12] I use hangouts every day. +[2944.12 --> 2945.68] That sucks. +[2945.68 --> 2946.68] It's like super crappy. +[2946.68 --> 2947.82] It's like super crappy. +[2947.82 --> 2954.28] So you have, you're going to have to get ready for a lot of workflow changes that you're not +[2954.28 --> 2955.22] going to be accustomed to. +[2955.22 --> 2961.38] Even if you've done the Android iOS switch before, like I actually switched to iOS recently. +[2961.38 --> 2967.02] I've been using my iPhone 5S for a couple of weeks now, just because I'm getting ready for the iPhone 6 to drop. +[2967.02 --> 2969.64] And I want to be somewhat familiar with the platform. +[2969.64 --> 2974.22] So I'm not just figuring out iOS again when the time comes to review that device. +[2974.22 --> 2977.94] And going from Android to iOS these days is pretty seamless. +[2977.94 --> 2981.22] Dropping onto Windows Phone, man, there's nothing. +[2981.22 --> 2983.56] Like the Instagram client's a beta. +[2983.56 --> 2988.92] Like Gmail has no, like, and we're talking Google services, so obviously there's not a whole lot there. +[2988.92 --> 2992.50] Like, but Gmail has no native, native client. +[2992.50 --> 2999.96] So you can use the, so you can use the built-in one, but then you're going to have just that stuff that feels very stone age. +[2999.96 --> 3006.56] Like notifications that are sitting on your phone for emails that you already checked on a PC because they don't go away. +[3006.56 --> 3009.92] Because it doesn't work that way when you're not just using Google's client. +[3009.92 --> 3014.42] I actually, I'm going to cover this in much more depth in the actual video. +[3014.42 --> 3020.12] Where actually throughout my time using it, I'm going to be creating a list of apps I looked for and found. +[3020.66 --> 3022.42] And apps I looked for and didn't find. +[3022.98 --> 3026.76] And some of those apps I looked for and didn't find are going to be pretty spectacular. +[3027.08 --> 3030.64] Like one of the things that I hate about it is the keyboard. +[3030.78 --> 3032.70] And I was like, just, you know, curiosity. +[3033.38 --> 3036.22] Does, because like, look how much of the screen the keyboard takes up. +[3036.54 --> 3036.94] Whoa. +[3037.48 --> 3040.72] When it's, when it's got predictive text on there, it's up to here. +[3040.90 --> 3041.94] What's with the stuff on the bottom? +[3042.24 --> 3043.04] I can't see the side. +[3043.04 --> 3045.10] That's send attachment. +[3045.68 --> 3047.34] Oh, that takes up a lot of space. +[3047.36 --> 3048.16] Yeah, it takes up a lot of space. +[3048.26 --> 3050.48] And you can make the navigation bar go away in the bottom. +[3050.54 --> 3053.16] But you use it so often, you're going to want it most of the time anyway. +[3053.82 --> 3056.28] So I wanted to change the keyboard. +[3056.76 --> 3058.32] And I was like, oh, I wonder if there's SwiftKey. +[3058.32 --> 3059.28] So I looked it up. +[3059.36 --> 3063.64] And it turns out that the only things that come up for SwiftKey are outright scams. +[3063.64 --> 3071.42] One of them has seven one-star reviews going back to about three weeks ago saying this is a scam. +[3071.70 --> 3074.46] It's a $1 link to the SwiftKey website. +[3074.84 --> 3075.02] Oh. +[3075.74 --> 3076.08] Yeah. +[3076.26 --> 3077.26] Like just bad. +[3077.36 --> 3083.94] Like it's not even a terrible keyboard, like wallpaper that looks like a keyboard. +[3084.08 --> 3085.06] Like they didn't even do anything. +[3085.14 --> 3085.80] It's just a link. +[3085.80 --> 3088.80] And Microsoft hasn't removed this from the store. +[3089.56 --> 3090.20] And I think that... +[3090.20 --> 3091.00] The same problem. +[3091.08 --> 3092.24] This segues into our next topic. +[3092.26 --> 3093.80] I know, but I'm not going to let you do it just yet. +[3094.16 --> 3101.52] So I think my problem with the 1M8 Windows Phone Edition is effectively HTC has done their best here. +[3102.02 --> 3106.44] Their camera app is as easy to use as the Android version. +[3106.92 --> 3109.16] They've actually got BlinkFeed as a live tile. +[3109.34 --> 3112.84] So you can still use BlinkFeed if you're into that, which I've actually started using more lately. +[3113.64 --> 3113.88] Oh. +[3114.74 --> 3116.16] It still has Double Tap to Wake. +[3116.48 --> 3117.02] So there you go. +[3117.08 --> 3118.32] Like it's the 1M8. +[3118.72 --> 3122.82] It's just on a platform that just doesn't feel enthusiast friendly. +[3123.42 --> 3124.08] Like at all. +[3124.90 --> 3125.18] You know? +[3125.18 --> 3128.62] And the whole live tile concept, it's very beautiful. +[3129.16 --> 3130.52] And you know, going like this. +[3130.60 --> 3132.66] Oh, you can go look at your apps and do whatever. +[3132.66 --> 3139.12] The problem is that live tiles change visually, which if you look at, you know, someone like McDonald's. +[3139.20 --> 3140.64] How often do they change their logo? +[3141.20 --> 3142.54] Why do they not change that? +[3143.06 --> 3145.76] Recognizability is good when people are trying to find things. +[3146.10 --> 3151.34] So to me, live tiles changing what they look like is not necessarily a very positive thing. +[3151.70 --> 3154.24] And you might go, okay, well, Linus, just memorize where they all are. +[3154.44 --> 3157.12] To which I would say, yeah, that's fine too. +[3157.12 --> 3162.68] Except that unlike Android and iOS, you don't have discrete pages. +[3163.44 --> 3165.84] And you can't create subfolders. +[3166.62 --> 3173.14] So you actually, once you start scrolling, remembering where everything is on the page goes out the window. +[3173.24 --> 3179.82] You can't muscle memory, you know, scroll down, you know, three-eighths of a decimeter. +[3180.16 --> 3182.52] And then click on this part. +[3182.56 --> 3183.76] It doesn't work that way. +[3184.32 --> 3186.46] So, hey, that's a unit of measurement. +[3186.46 --> 3189.22] It's just no one uses it. +[3189.60 --> 3189.90] I know. +[3190.18 --> 3196.22] Well, I wanted to say three-eighths of an inch, but that's not enough to be an actual, so I changed it to decimeter in mid-sentence. +[3196.80 --> 3197.06] Anyway. +[3197.86 --> 3200.78] Because no one uses fractions of metric measurements either. +[3200.90 --> 3202.86] So it was just a completely broken thing to say. +[3203.22 --> 3212.84] Anyway, the point is that if you're going to install more apps than what fits on, like, one home screen, it just doesn't scale very nicely. +[3213.30 --> 3215.08] And it's not intuitive to use. +[3215.08 --> 3225.38] So I was really hoping that Windows Phone would have matured a lot since I used it a year ago on an HTC 8X. +[3225.46 --> 3225.98] I think it did. +[3226.04 --> 3228.12] I think it matured into a giant scan machine. +[3228.72 --> 3229.00] Okay. +[3229.10 --> 3231.30] So that's how you're going to segue into our next topic? +[3231.30 --> 3236.46] I'm trying to make sure that you have anything left to still make a video about. +[3236.50 --> 3238.12] Posted by JMaster299. +[3238.30 --> 3239.50] Oh, I'm going to have lots. +[3239.60 --> 3240.72] I mean, I'll say mostly that stuff. +[3240.72 --> 3240.98] I know. +[3240.98 --> 3242.22] I was more trolling than anything. +[3242.80 --> 3243.52] Troll yourself. +[3244.60 --> 3245.14] All right. +[3245.52 --> 3246.44] Talk about this. +[3246.44 --> 3251.40] This is for Windows Phone and, like, Windows 8, where there's the Microsoft Store. +[3251.62 --> 3257.06] And this headline written by JMaster here is pretty sensationalist. +[3257.52 --> 3262.26] Microsoft willingly allowing malicious apps in the Windows Store to obtain a cut of the profits. +[3262.26 --> 3264.54] That is some tinfoil hat stuff there. +[3264.54 --> 3271.22] The to obtain a cut of the profits thing is maybe a little bit sensationalist, but willingly allowing is not sensationalist. +[3271.40 --> 3271.78] Yes. +[3271.88 --> 3272.68] That's actually a thing. +[3272.82 --> 3273.22] I know. +[3273.32 --> 3274.52] They have allowed the apps to. +[3274.60 --> 3275.72] I mean, okay, okay, okay. +[3275.72 --> 3276.98] And they have to be manually approved. +[3277.14 --> 3277.54] You talk. +[3277.62 --> 3278.00] You talk. +[3278.30 --> 3284.66] So the stores are crammed with fake versions of popular paid apps like Linus was just talking about. +[3284.80 --> 3287.96] You can look for something and it'll just give you a link to download it. +[3288.02 --> 3290.46] That's an extremely common situation. +[3290.46 --> 3296.46] And even the descriptions on some of them will be, like, helps the user to know how to download and use this thing. +[3296.54 --> 3297.70] But it's not how to use it or anything. +[3298.00 --> 3301.60] It's just a link to the proper app where you can download it for free. +[3302.18 --> 3302.96] That's it. +[3303.02 --> 3304.78] And I believe the iTunes one is $9. +[3305.68 --> 3307.84] They provide you a $9 link. +[3308.68 --> 3309.12] Ridiculous. +[3309.26 --> 3311.24] That should never be manually approved by an employee. +[3311.56 --> 3312.50] That is insane. +[3313.46 --> 3318.60] Microsoft does claim that in their store everything is manually approved by an employee. +[3318.60 --> 3324.90] So that whole willingly knowing that they're having scam apps has to be true or they're lying about that. +[3325.22 --> 3325.76] Someone knows. +[3326.02 --> 3333.12] But I don't think that the people creating the policy for the approval of apps is, like, they must know at this point. +[3333.50 --> 3334.58] Like, what if? +[3334.84 --> 3336.46] It's been in the news so much. +[3336.54 --> 3342.64] And you think, if you ever look at the store, like, I believe even a search for VLC comes up with a whole bunch of paid versions. +[3343.10 --> 3344.12] And there's links to download. +[3344.34 --> 3346.48] Which is like, okay, come on now. +[3346.48 --> 3350.06] And like that one that I was just talking about, $9 for a link to iTunes. +[3350.40 --> 3351.92] iTunes is extremely common. +[3352.04 --> 3353.74] They must have ran into this at some point in time. +[3354.00 --> 3357.16] There has to be someone reporting it up the chain. +[3357.40 --> 3360.44] Being like, hey, there's a $9 link. +[3360.70 --> 3364.80] And there really needs to be an after-the-fact review system for ones like the one I mentioned. +[3364.80 --> 3368.24] Where it had seven one-star reviews going back several weeks. +[3368.24 --> 3373.08] Anything that's got, like, you know, two or three one-star reviews in a row. +[3373.28 --> 3375.70] That's got to put up some major red flags. +[3375.94 --> 3382.12] I mean, the app creator didn't even bother to create a spam account to give it a five-star rating. +[3382.50 --> 3387.78] It has literally nothing to get past a filter of any sort. +[3388.62 --> 3389.06] Nothing. +[3389.22 --> 3390.08] No attempt made. +[3390.26 --> 3391.52] So there must just not be one. +[3391.52 --> 3395.20] Where he's coming from with the whole trying to skim the profits thing. +[3395.40 --> 3396.54] I get it. +[3396.56 --> 3399.88] I don't know how necessarily real that is. +[3400.10 --> 3400.24] What the? +[3401.18 --> 3402.74] But they... +[3402.74 --> 3404.92] See, they're giving money out at this point. +[3404.96 --> 3406.36] So I don't know if it totally makes sense. +[3406.64 --> 3411.74] They're running a keep-the-cash promotion where they paid developers $100 for each completed app. +[3411.74 --> 3419.24] So if you're trying to get those $100 things, if you put a link in and upload it as an app, you just made $100. +[3419.74 --> 3421.98] So obviously a bunch of people are going to want to do that. +[3422.04 --> 3424.48] And you can make up to $2,000 per developer. +[3424.98 --> 3431.12] If you want pretty much free $2,000, just make a bunch of apps that link to other apps and you're done. +[3431.46 --> 3433.68] That's kind of fantastically horrible. +[3433.68 --> 3434.40] And you know what? +[3434.54 --> 3440.02] It aligns with their seeming desperation to deliver search results when people search in the store. +[3440.02 --> 3441.82] Like I searched for TWITT. +[3442.62 --> 3448.14] And instead of bringing up things like Carbon, it brought up official Twitter. +[3448.48 --> 3454.68] And then it brought up like Facebook and Instagram, which I'm like, okay, those are at least within the same category. +[3454.68 --> 3463.90] And then as you continue to scroll down the list, things get less and less related to the point where it's just like, you know, it's not about delivering more results. +[3463.90 --> 3466.12] It's about delivering the most relevant result. +[3466.20 --> 3468.12] And it really feels like they aren't there yet. +[3468.12 --> 3475.74] And speaking of that, in April 2014, they announced that they have over 400,000 apps combined between the Windows Phone and Windows, just normal Windows Store. +[3476.54 --> 3478.28] But that includes all the scams. +[3478.34 --> 3483.22] So they have some amount of incentive not to take them down because they can keep that in their number of apps that they have. +[3483.48 --> 3489.70] And if they axed all of these scam apps, that would greatly reduce their total amount of apps that they can claim that they have. +[3489.70 --> 3493.88] Also, Microsoft takes a cut of every sale, of every app sale. +[3494.00 --> 3497.66] So this is where people are thinking that they want to keep them around. +[3497.90 --> 3505.00] But honestly, looking at the like tiny little miniature microscopic droplets that has to be in their revenue stream. +[3505.36 --> 3505.60] Yeah. +[3505.86 --> 3508.40] I don't see them taking that giant risk for that. +[3508.54 --> 3509.08] That doesn't make sense. +[3509.08 --> 3511.56] I think they're a lot smarter than that at some level. +[3511.56 --> 3511.86] Yeah. +[3511.86 --> 3514.18] So I think something's going wrong. +[3514.24 --> 3520.18] I don't think it's because of the money, especially because they were giving out $100 per app for people to just make them in general. +[3520.46 --> 3520.68] Yeah. +[3520.78 --> 3522.94] I don't see this being a money gaining opportunity. +[3523.28 --> 3531.76] If I was going to create a program like that, I'd probably have a bigger payout for like people to create one app. +[3531.86 --> 3536.62] Because how could an individual developer create 20 quality apps within a reasonable period of time? +[3536.62 --> 3537.34] That's just stupid. +[3537.56 --> 3545.86] And like maybe have a bigger payout and be like, yeah, you get the money, the really big payout when you have a certain ratio of stars. +[3546.30 --> 3546.78] Or something. +[3546.86 --> 3549.22] Like say you have to have three star minimum or something like that. +[3549.22 --> 3550.06] It has to be useful. +[3550.18 --> 3555.54] But then like pay attention to the star ratings and make sure that they're not just all scam, which is very common lately. +[3555.90 --> 3556.28] Yeah. +[3557.30 --> 3557.68] All right. +[3557.88 --> 3558.50] Happy topic. +[3559.12 --> 3559.46] Yeah. +[3559.46 --> 3573.72] So speaking of wanting people to like you, Disney is rumored to be working on an unaltered release of the Star Wars trilogy, the original trilogy, not the one no one cares about, on Blu-ray. +[3574.08 --> 3583.12] Now, as someone who has seen the Blu-ray enhanced versions, wow, they look a lot better than the original releases, man. +[3583.12 --> 3589.48] Like they did some serious work to clean that stuff up and make it look like really good. +[3589.62 --> 3595.16] By the way, once I was looking for it in A New Hope, you can easily spot the Stormtroopers with gaffer tape on them. +[3595.24 --> 3595.44] Yeah? +[3595.60 --> 3595.80] Yeah. +[3595.90 --> 3596.40] That's funny. +[3596.54 --> 3596.68] Yeah. +[3596.74 --> 3598.62] Especially in the Blu-ray version. +[3599.50 --> 3601.08] So I've seen the Blu-ray version. +[3601.24 --> 3602.44] I've seen the original releases. +[3603.10 --> 3608.94] The problem is that I cannot take A New Hope seriously if Greedo shoots first. +[3608.94 --> 3612.04] And it seems like a stupid, petty thing. +[3612.54 --> 3618.54] But I went back and watched the original release on like VHS cassettes pretty recently. +[3618.90 --> 3620.00] It was actually kind of awesome. +[3621.18 --> 3634.00] And the way it's cut together, the way the music flows, the way everything happens, Han is a badass and shot the dude because he's tired of his crap. +[3635.04 --> 3635.56] Boom. +[3635.56 --> 3641.72] And like the way he tips the bartender like a couple bucks for leaving a dead body in the... +[3641.72 --> 3646.00] You're not going to convince me that he's some kind of white frickin' knight at this point. +[3646.10 --> 3646.58] Come on. +[3646.88 --> 3647.94] He's clearly... +[3647.94 --> 3649.68] This doesn't even phase him at all. +[3649.94 --> 3656.08] Blowing someone away in a bar does not even register on his radar. +[3656.64 --> 3659.70] So anyway, I am super excited to see this. +[3659.84 --> 3661.18] I plan to buy it. +[3661.18 --> 3663.00] If it happens. +[3663.30 --> 3663.70] And you know what? +[3663.74 --> 3664.20] If it happens. +[3664.20 --> 3670.06] At this point in time, even if it is a rumor and wasn't being worked on, they should scramble their ass and get this released. +[3670.40 --> 3672.84] Because they're getting all good publicity right now. +[3672.86 --> 3678.94] If Disney was looking to gain the favor of the hardcore fans, like you think about the hardcore Star Wars fans. +[3679.02 --> 3683.22] How many times they've been crapped on in the last 20 years? +[3683.22 --> 3683.88] So many. +[3683.96 --> 3685.18] So many times. +[3685.38 --> 3691.28] They're going to be going into Disney's first crack at this with a negative vibe. +[3691.28 --> 3695.52] As opposed to going in excited, you know, ready to be blown away. +[3695.62 --> 3697.60] They're going to be going in expecting to be disappointed. +[3697.74 --> 3700.74] And I think Disney's going to have to work that much harder to impress them. +[3700.74 --> 3709.26] Whereas if they do this ahead of time, I think it's a very different aura that walks into that theater for the first screening. +[3709.56 --> 3709.76] Yep. +[3710.32 --> 3713.54] So they really, really should do this, even if it is just a rumor. +[3713.56 --> 3715.82] All these rumors are coming from comicbook.com. +[3715.90 --> 3717.56] So we don't even know how credible this is. +[3717.98 --> 3722.68] But the rumor is that the project is taking longer than expected due to damage to the negatives. +[3722.94 --> 3725.30] But I'd be super stoked if this happened. +[3725.78 --> 3725.98] Yeah. +[3725.98 --> 3727.16] All right. +[3727.28 --> 3729.58] So speaking of things, I'd be super stoked if they happened. +[3729.72 --> 3734.48] Google's driverless cars can keep up with the flow of traffic. +[3734.88 --> 3737.06] This has been very, like... +[3737.06 --> 3738.22] Posted by Victoria's Secret. +[3738.70 --> 3739.08] A lot... +[3739.08 --> 3740.58] See, this is what I'm talking about. +[3740.68 --> 3745.10] The titles for a lot of these things, in my opinion, have been pretty sensationalist. +[3745.38 --> 3745.52] Yeah. +[3745.52 --> 3747.22] Because designed to exceed the speed limit. +[3747.30 --> 3751.46] They're not designed to purposefully just be like, ha ha ha, we're going too quickly. +[3751.80 --> 3753.62] But they have a threshold where they're... +[3753.62 --> 3754.10] Take that, copper! +[3754.10 --> 3754.60] Yeah. +[3754.60 --> 3759.30] They have a threshold where they are allowed to go slightly above the speed limit. +[3759.42 --> 3760.70] I don't think it's that fast. +[3760.82 --> 3763.64] 10 miles or about 16 kilometers an hour, which is... +[3763.64 --> 3764.64] That's pretty fast. +[3764.74 --> 3766.06] But that's what they're allowed to do. +[3766.12 --> 3767.36] They're not programmed to do this. +[3767.42 --> 3769.50] But in a lot of areas, it's perfectly reasonable. +[3769.86 --> 3772.24] Yes, because they're keeping up with the flow of traffic. +[3772.44 --> 3776.44] Because it has been proven time and time again that not keeping up with the flow of traffic +[3776.44 --> 3777.62] can be very dangerous. +[3777.92 --> 3778.68] Yeah, like proven. +[3778.86 --> 3779.74] Not speculated. +[3779.90 --> 3780.40] Not speculated. +[3780.40 --> 3785.34] By like Reddit, but proven that it's dangerous to go too slow. +[3785.34 --> 3786.04] Oh, you mean speculated by Reddit. +[3786.14 --> 3786.34] Yeah. +[3786.44 --> 3786.82] No, no, no. +[3786.82 --> 3788.50] Proven by like actual... +[3788.50 --> 3788.88] Science. +[3789.10 --> 3789.34] Yeah. +[3789.34 --> 3795.04] So they're not designed to just go out and exceed speed limits because they're wanting +[3795.04 --> 3795.88] to get there quickly. +[3796.44 --> 3798.32] They're designed to keep up with traffic. +[3798.50 --> 3805.04] And if that has to do with exceeding the speed limit by a fairly reasonable amount, then it's +[3805.04 --> 3805.30] okay. +[3805.30 --> 3809.38] But they're not going to like keep up with traffic if traffic is going 200 miles an hour. +[3809.38 --> 3815.12] So another interesting thing along the... +[3815.12 --> 3819.78] Also related to Google's driverless cars from this week is that the state of California +[3819.78 --> 3825.38] is telling Google they don't want them on the road unless they have a steering wheel and +[3825.38 --> 3829.92] pedals so that the driver can take immediate control if needed. +[3829.92 --> 3837.10] And this is going to be a big debate for a while because part of the safety of driverless +[3837.10 --> 3840.38] cars is going to be taking human error out of the equation. +[3842.44 --> 3848.26] So for now, Google is retrofitting the ones that they've already made is my understanding. +[3848.26 --> 3855.40] But the ones like the actual official Google car was not supposed to have a steering wheel +[3855.40 --> 3855.90] and pedals. +[3856.56 --> 3858.02] So this could... +[3858.02 --> 3860.12] Yeah, this debate could rage for a while. +[3860.32 --> 3864.66] In the UK, they are looking to allow Google's cars starting in 2015. +[3865.06 --> 3870.08] So once again, someone else is more progressive than the United States where the innovation is +[3870.08 --> 3871.06] actually happening. +[3875.70 --> 3877.94] It's kind of funny when you look at it that way, isn't it? +[3878.26 --> 3879.10] It is funny. +[3879.70 --> 3882.70] I mean, what makes the United States a powerhouse? +[3884.02 --> 3885.18] Research and technology. +[3885.64 --> 3888.58] It's like, no, we don't want it here. +[3889.10 --> 3894.56] I find the United States almost more than any other region, though, is very scared of having +[3894.56 --> 3896.12] things go out of people's hands. +[3896.98 --> 3902.08] Yeah, well, you know, it's funny because I was about to say movies and TV shows probably +[3902.08 --> 3902.64] don't help. +[3902.82 --> 3905.36] But this actually reminds me of a fantastic... +[3905.36 --> 3909.80] I think it was a two-part episode of Doctor Who where some bad guy... +[3909.80 --> 3911.46] I don't remember exactly the context. +[3911.68 --> 3913.90] I think it's another Time Lord or something. +[3914.14 --> 3914.88] I can't remember. +[3915.00 --> 3916.18] Some bad aliens or something. +[3916.56 --> 3919.08] So basically the plot of every Doctor Who episode ever. +[3919.08 --> 3923.80] They were using a car manufacturer to... +[3923.80 --> 3925.58] It was like better emissions or something. +[3925.76 --> 3927.52] It was like a thing that you could install in your car. +[3927.84 --> 3930.50] And then they just had them drive people into lakes and stuff. +[3930.56 --> 3935.46] So it's not like that kind of content doesn't exist in the UK. +[3935.46 --> 3939.58] It's just you have to also have your feet on the ground in reality. +[3939.98 --> 3941.74] And realize that you don't live in that world. +[3941.90 --> 3946.44] And look at something that has actually been very well tested at this point. +[3946.52 --> 3946.90] I mean, what is it? +[3946.94 --> 3950.06] 700,000 miles of logged travel on these cars. +[3950.08 --> 3951.90] And the only accidents have been like... +[3951.90 --> 3953.72] Caused by another driver. +[3953.82 --> 3954.78] Yeah, not them. +[3955.84 --> 3956.92] I don't know. +[3957.46 --> 3958.36] What was I going to say? +[3958.68 --> 3959.00] Right. +[3959.14 --> 3959.74] iRobot. +[3959.84 --> 3961.32] There's the manual takeover thing. +[3961.64 --> 3963.04] But then it doesn't really help. +[3963.36 --> 3963.56] Yeah. +[3963.56 --> 3965.98] It's like, okay, yeah, I don't know. +[3966.28 --> 3969.06] What people are scared of, obviously, is like technical failure. +[3969.24 --> 3969.56] But then... +[3970.38 --> 3971.88] And people don't like giving up control. +[3972.50 --> 3972.74] Yeah. +[3973.12 --> 3974.36] I mean, if someone told me... +[3974.36 --> 3975.92] If Google told me, look... +[3975.92 --> 3977.38] Actually, this is a perfect example. +[3977.52 --> 3983.28] If Google told me, hey, we've come up with an automated way to look at your video. +[3983.70 --> 3984.74] So you just upload it. +[3984.74 --> 3988.44] And then we'll create the perfect title, thumbnail, and description for you. +[3988.86 --> 3989.30] I'd be like... +[3989.30 --> 3989.76] You say no. +[3989.80 --> 3990.04] No? +[3990.76 --> 3991.40] You high? +[3991.40 --> 3991.48] Okay. +[3992.28 --> 3994.00] And we're not even talking about my life. +[3994.08 --> 3995.50] We're just talking about my job at that point. +[3995.50 --> 3998.84] To be honest, though, if it worked after a long time, I would eventually let it just do it. +[3998.98 --> 4000.60] I would just want my own testing done on it. +[4000.64 --> 4001.04] That's all. +[4001.34 --> 4001.62] Right. +[4001.82 --> 4002.82] To be completely honest. +[4003.14 --> 4005.62] And then what you could do is just let it go. +[4005.70 --> 4007.24] And then if something's wrong, just go edit it later. +[4007.34 --> 4009.52] It's not as consequential as driverless cars. +[4010.10 --> 4011.32] But I don't know. +[4011.32 --> 4015.98] And that brings in the same debate where if you crash, at least it was your fault. +[4017.04 --> 4017.16] Yeah. +[4017.30 --> 4019.60] If the AI crashes, it wasn't your fault. +[4020.08 --> 4022.70] Even if the odds of you crashing were much higher. +[4022.98 --> 4023.18] Yeah. +[4026.00 --> 4028.18] I'm just saying that's an argument. +[4028.18 --> 4033.54] I've probably logged less than 700,000 miles of driving in my life. +[4034.54 --> 4035.08] Let me just think. +[4035.22 --> 4035.46] Oh, yeah. +[4035.54 --> 4036.28] Definitely less. +[4036.40 --> 4038.48] Probably about a half to two-thirds of that. +[4039.58 --> 4046.68] But I have been in at least two or three at-fault accidents in that time. +[4047.68 --> 4051.94] So, on the other hand, in the last five or six years, I haven't been in any. +[4053.10 --> 4058.44] So, you know, do you look at this and kind of go, oh, okay, well, you know, for new drivers, +[4058.70 --> 4060.44] but then they'll never get any experience. +[4061.04 --> 4065.88] And we're going to be talking about, you know, previous generation people who are not used +[4065.88 --> 4067.16] to this newfangled technology. +[4067.30 --> 4068.70] Would you trust your kids to it? +[4068.90 --> 4070.16] Like, that's something. +[4070.16 --> 4073.58] Like, would I trust myself to drive around in a self-driving car? +[4073.70 --> 4074.48] Actually, probably. +[4074.66 --> 4075.86] I would probably ride around in one. +[4075.86 --> 4081.38] But if I were to buy a self-driving car for my family, like, one of the sort of, you know, +[4081.76 --> 4087.84] utopia, amazing future-type things that I imagine is that every household will only need +[4087.84 --> 4090.70] one vehicle because it can just go where it's needed. +[4090.80 --> 4093.40] It'll go pick up the kids and take them to karate. +[4093.80 --> 4097.66] And then when it's done with that, it'll go pick up, you know, me and take me there +[4097.66 --> 4098.90] to meet them and watch them. +[4098.94 --> 4102.02] And then it'll go pick up my wife when she's done work and take her to come. +[4102.06 --> 4103.04] And then we'll all go together home. +[4103.28 --> 4104.34] Like, that's amazing. +[4104.46 --> 4105.28] That's so cool. +[4105.28 --> 4113.26] But would I really just let a car go by itself to pick up my son when he's done, you know, +[4113.32 --> 4114.20] the day at kindergarten? +[4114.70 --> 4116.12] I don't know how I feel about that. +[4116.14 --> 4120.42] What if it gets to the point where there's the car should obviously actually have cameras +[4120.42 --> 4123.66] all over the place and you can connect to it at any point in time so you can see it drive +[4123.66 --> 4125.28] up to the building that your son's at. +[4125.36 --> 4126.50] You can see your son get into the car. +[4126.56 --> 4127.18] You can say hi to your son. +[4127.18 --> 4128.26] I'm too old for this stuff. +[4128.96 --> 4132.62] Maybe virtual presence devices weird me out a little. +[4132.62 --> 4135.42] I don't know, man. +[4135.60 --> 4138.00] What if it gets to the point where virtual presence... +[4138.00 --> 4138.98] Hi, iPad dad! +[4138.98 --> 4141.16] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[4141.22 --> 4143.80] But seriously, what if it gets to the point where you've seen that thing where you can +[4143.80 --> 4147.78] you can attend a conference or convention through that wheeled iPad, right? +[4147.78 --> 4147.90] Yeah. +[4148.06 --> 4150.02] What if that becomes way more intense? +[4150.08 --> 4151.04] What if you're controlling an Android? +[4151.40 --> 4155.66] What if you could literally carry your son out of the car, but it's not your body? +[4155.78 --> 4159.16] I'm giving him a robot hug and I'm getting an iPad kiss. +[4159.16 --> 4161.48] That's so weird! +[4162.02 --> 4163.60] I meant more like if the car crashes. +[4164.20 --> 4165.26] If the car crashes? +[4165.46 --> 4166.06] Oh, man. +[4166.10 --> 4166.84] I don't even know. +[4166.88 --> 4174.08] The car crashes and there's this metal heavy-duty emergency droid sitting in the car and you +[4174.08 --> 4180.10] can just be like, take over, pick up, carry out, call 911 on its built-in Android software. +[4180.28 --> 4181.36] I don't know, man. +[4183.08 --> 4184.20] That's very safe. +[4184.20 --> 4187.26] I wasn't even thinking about not being there in the Inventiment Emergency. +[4187.26 --> 4190.40] I was just thinking about how impersonal the whole thing is. +[4190.84 --> 4190.96] Right. +[4192.30 --> 4193.54] That I didn't think about. +[4193.92 --> 4195.32] But now I'm thinking about emergency. +[4196.74 --> 4197.50] All right. +[4197.58 --> 4204.82] So in the not controversial and definitely excellent vehicle news, Tesla increases their +[4204.82 --> 4212.66] warranty drive unit warranty or the drive unit warranty on the Model S to eight years +[4212.66 --> 4214.04] and the battery pack. +[4214.12 --> 4214.52] There we go. +[4214.62 --> 4214.76] Yeah. +[4214.84 --> 4215.24] Wow. +[4215.24 --> 4216.90] Eight years, infinite miles. +[4217.72 --> 4218.18] Isn't that amazing? +[4218.18 --> 4219.68] You can drive as much as you want. +[4219.96 --> 4225.42] Elon Musk has said it will have a moderate negative effect on Tesla's earnings in the +[4225.42 --> 4229.12] short term, but it's the right thing for Tesla vehicle owners in the early stage of their +[4229.12 --> 4232.48] company and he's confident that they'll work it out well in the long term because +[4232.48 --> 4234.32] Elon Musk is a massive badass. +[4235.64 --> 4235.96] Dude. +[4236.22 --> 4237.22] That's pretty much it. +[4237.40 --> 4239.40] Posted by Sam Cool 55 on the forum, by the way. +[4239.42 --> 4239.70] Thank you. +[4239.78 --> 4242.54] It's going retroactively to people that already own Model S's. +[4242.54 --> 4246.20] So if you bought a Model S early on, you're getting this warranty despite not having it +[4246.20 --> 4247.14] when you originally bought it. +[4247.32 --> 4248.34] I mean, eight years. +[4248.50 --> 4254.02] Like if you think about that, my car is a 2003 and three years ago, you could probably +[4254.02 --> 4258.30] make the argument that it had kind of served its purpose to the original owner. +[4258.58 --> 4262.64] And if that original owner wasn't a complete cheapskate, they were probably going to resell +[4262.64 --> 4262.74] it. +[4262.74 --> 4268.36] But in fact, I have only owned that car for about eight years because I bought it as an +[4268.36 --> 4270.82] end of lease deal from someone who leased it for a few years. +[4271.00 --> 4273.80] And this can be transferred to infinite amount of owners either. +[4274.20 --> 4274.44] Wow. +[4274.88 --> 4276.88] So infinite miles, infinite owners, eight years. +[4277.06 --> 4282.82] So assuming that my car has reached the point after the time that I've owned it that I might +[4282.82 --> 4287.76] have to do some maintenance like a battery swap on it is not unfair and not unreasonable. +[4287.76 --> 4294.14] And this is the first time I've really seen a car manufacturer step up and instead of +[4294.14 --> 4300.32] warrantying what is safe, warrantying what is reasonable for a consumer to expect in terms +[4300.32 --> 4301.14] of a vehicle lifetime. +[4301.14 --> 4306.10] Because by eight years, it's dinged up, it's scratched, it's probably gotten its windshield +[4306.10 --> 4308.60] broken a couple of times from random debris on the road. +[4308.70 --> 4311.98] Like there's stuff that can reasonably be wrong with it. +[4312.02 --> 4313.04] That's nobody's fault. +[4313.04 --> 4318.00] Given how much detail and quality they put into their paint jobs, which is insane, they +[4318.00 --> 4322.18] have someone white glove hand over the entire surface of the car just to make sure it's +[4322.18 --> 4322.58] perfect. +[4322.84 --> 4323.66] Every single one. +[4324.30 --> 4327.56] Like I would hate to get that thing scratched, but it's probably going to be scratched in +[4327.56 --> 4328.02] the eight year later. +[4328.02 --> 4328.70] It's going to happen. +[4328.88 --> 4334.04] So this means you get infinite usage of all of Tesla's supercharging stations, which they're +[4334.04 --> 4338.64] constantly putting up more for the lifetime of the product, not eight years. +[4338.64 --> 4344.82] Um, and you get an eight year warranty on your drive unit and battery, which is like, if +[4344.82 --> 4347.50] you look into how they're made pretty much everything. +[4349.02 --> 4349.72] That's cool. +[4349.94 --> 4350.88] That's so beast. +[4351.54 --> 4351.98] Awesome. +[4352.44 --> 4358.72] I'm excited for their, um, like more consumer friendly, cheaper car that they're going to +[4358.72 --> 4359.16] come out with. +[4359.22 --> 4362.46] Who knows if it's going to have all this kind of stuff, but knowing them, it'll be pretty +[4362.46 --> 4362.86] awesome. +[4362.86 --> 4367.78] So speaking of how difficult it is for me to switch to windows phone, the switcher, +[4367.78 --> 4370.00] this was originally posted on the forum by builder. +[4370.48 --> 4378.30] And there's an article here that I think actually hits on a number of truths. +[4378.64 --> 4383.42] And I think that the basic point of, uh, or like, okay, the, the headline that a builder +[4383.42 --> 4387.72] put in is choose Firefox now or later you won't get a choice. +[4387.72 --> 4397.84] And the article really looks at Google's dominance in terms of how many people that they have +[4397.84 --> 4404.08] won over to their ecosystem and how much power that gives them over you not being able to +[4404.08 --> 4405.08] switch to something else. +[4405.08 --> 4412.36] Like I can switch to iOS because iOS was so dominant and Google has supported it up until +[4412.36 --> 4416.34] now and doesn't look like they're going to stop supporting it anytime soon. +[4416.34 --> 4423.44] But a new platform, someone who's trying to break in like Microsoft, who's getting no +[4423.44 --> 4424.32] support from Google. +[4424.32 --> 4431.16] The fact that I am so deeply rooted in Google's ecosystem, whether it's drive or hangouts or +[4431.16 --> 4434.80] Gmail, I use Gmail for my personal and for my business email. +[4435.72 --> 4437.16] I see the point. +[4437.28 --> 4442.38] If you don't stop using Google services, you may never be able to stop. +[4442.38 --> 4449.96] And you know, if they become your service provider for everything that you use online and your +[4449.96 --> 4456.32] ISP at some terrifying point in the future, basically we won't even need to worry about +[4456.32 --> 4462.42] the NSA because Google will have all the information we were ever worried about the NSA having. +[4462.42 --> 4468.52] And Google might have been in the past, you know, up until now, even, you know, fairly +[4468.52 --> 4470.40] consumer oriented. +[4470.76 --> 4473.54] But that doesn't mean that their leadership is going to exist forever. +[4474.30 --> 4478.10] That doesn't mean that as a company, their culture can't change very dramatically. +[4478.26 --> 4478.84] I mean, it already has. +[4478.94 --> 4479.56] We've seen it happen. +[4479.58 --> 4481.12] It already has changed very dramatically. +[4481.12 --> 4485.44] And these are very young companies that we're entrusting a lot of information to. +[4485.44 --> 4490.62] It's they're not they're not old companies like, you know, a Nintendo where we can look +[4490.62 --> 4494.64] back a hundred years at what their culture is and how they've evolved over time. +[4494.64 --> 4499.82] We're looking at companies that have gone from zero to enormous in a span of, you know, +[4499.82 --> 4504.84] five or 10 or 20 or even two years sometimes. +[4506.90 --> 4507.82] Kind of insane. +[4507.88 --> 4509.18] That's how fast they change. +[4509.34 --> 4511.26] So be prepared for them to change that fast. +[4511.68 --> 4512.30] So I don't know. +[4512.34 --> 4513.78] I just I thought it was a really interesting. +[4513.78 --> 4515.24] It was really interesting food for thought. +[4515.64 --> 4519.10] And the original article was from Robert.Ocallahan.org. +[4519.38 --> 4520.60] I've already been trying. +[4520.70 --> 4523.26] I've been looking into switching to PhotonMail for a while. +[4523.26 --> 4527.20] But PhotonMail is taking a while to really become a thing. +[4527.78 --> 4527.86] Right. +[4527.98 --> 4529.08] So waiting for that. +[4529.76 --> 4531.92] And I've been looking into changing to a lot of things. +[4532.00 --> 4536.60] But the problem is whenever Google steps into a market, everyone else is basically forcibly +[4536.60 --> 4537.46] stepped out. +[4537.84 --> 4538.06] Yep. +[4538.26 --> 4539.50] Because everyone moves to that. +[4539.60 --> 4542.72] So there's no real like great calendar app anymore. +[4543.52 --> 4543.72] Yep. +[4543.98 --> 4545.62] Because everyone just uses Google Calendar. +[4546.64 --> 4547.18] It's hard to switch. +[4547.18 --> 4548.28] Google Calendar is not even that great. +[4548.38 --> 4548.88] No, it's not. +[4548.92 --> 4550.08] Actually, it's kind of annoying. +[4550.40 --> 4551.52] I'd love to have a better calendar. +[4551.66 --> 4552.12] So would I. +[4552.20 --> 4553.86] I mean, here's here's like the simplest. +[4553.86 --> 4556.16] Now someone's going to message us with a better calendar, which is fantastic. +[4556.30 --> 4556.80] Please do that. +[4557.50 --> 4559.20] Like here's the simplest thing ever here. +[4559.24 --> 4562.04] I'm just going to pull up a blank calendar here on my screen. +[4562.72 --> 4564.26] So like here's an example. +[4564.62 --> 4569.36] What if I wanted to take this event and like drag it past here? +[4569.56 --> 4570.98] You have to put it on that bottom row. +[4571.14 --> 4571.30] Yeah. +[4571.30 --> 4571.92] And go down. +[4571.92 --> 4573.42] That's ridiculous. +[4573.96 --> 4575.62] Like that's the stupidest thing ever. +[4575.70 --> 4576.30] How did they not? +[4576.38 --> 4577.96] How did nobody catch this ever? +[4579.18 --> 4579.58] Anyway. +[4582.20 --> 4583.00] I don't know. +[4583.14 --> 4584.20] It's just kind of horrible. +[4584.52 --> 4585.46] So it's kind of scary. +[4585.46 --> 4587.18] I've been saying this for quite a while, actually. +[4587.44 --> 4589.18] But we don't have a better option. +[4589.38 --> 4591.04] We're just rousing about it. +[4591.30 --> 4595.18] And the problem right now is I've brought this up in a few different wine shows. +[4595.46 --> 4601.18] There's there's such mass fight for speed in browsers right now where they're just iterating +[4601.18 --> 4602.74] releases incredibly fast. +[4602.74 --> 4609.02] If you look way back, Firefox didn't release releases all that quickly until kind of Google +[4609.02 --> 4609.94] Chrome came in. +[4609.94 --> 4613.36] And then they both started fighting and they're both releasing as fast they possibly can to +[4613.36 --> 4614.52] try and stay on top of. +[4614.66 --> 4615.14] I like this. +[4615.24 --> 4617.80] Ionic Meteor says Outlook Master Race. +[4618.30 --> 4619.82] And I'm 50 years old. +[4619.82 --> 4620.26] Yeah. +[4624.88 --> 4625.20] Yeah. +[4625.26 --> 4628.52] They've been fighting for these iterative releases which are insane and they just break +[4628.52 --> 4629.72] everything. +[4630.34 --> 4631.40] On my personal computer at home. +[4631.40 --> 4633.64] Flash hasn't been working in Firefox for months. +[4633.94 --> 4640.36] On my personal computer at home, I can't use like most social media websites on Firefox. +[4640.76 --> 4645.10] And then I can't view YouTube videos in Chrome. +[4646.92 --> 4647.44] What? +[4647.44 --> 4651.20] So I have to use two different browsers so that I can actually get functionality across +[4651.20 --> 4651.58] all of them. +[4651.74 --> 4652.54] What the hell? +[4653.02 --> 4654.02] Since when did this happen? +[4654.16 --> 4655.66] Just give up. +[4655.74 --> 4656.94] It's freaking fast enough. +[4657.20 --> 4657.88] Fix everything. +[4658.08 --> 4658.44] God. +[4658.74 --> 4659.54] One of you. +[4661.10 --> 4661.54] Firefox. +[4661.72 --> 4666.78] I wish Firefox would just like step back and be like, okay, you can be one billionth of +[4666.78 --> 4667.86] a second faster than us. +[4667.96 --> 4669.00] Who gives a crap? +[4669.20 --> 4670.56] Everything's going to work on our browser. +[4670.96 --> 4671.36] You know what? +[4671.36 --> 4671.90] That would be great. +[4672.12 --> 4673.64] Because Waterfox is doing it right now. +[4673.64 --> 4676.44] I'm rooting for Internet Explorer, the rebrand. +[4677.08 --> 4677.32] Yeah? +[4677.44 --> 4678.48] I'm holding out for that. +[4678.84 --> 4679.80] Maybe they'll get it together. +[4679.98 --> 4680.50] I doubt it though. +[4680.54 --> 4681.20] I doubt it. +[4681.44 --> 4681.94] But maybe. +[4683.20 --> 4684.12] If I'm going to blindly. +[4684.12 --> 4684.72] That would be cool. +[4684.88 --> 4688.16] If I'm going to have blind faith in something, I guess that'll be it right now. +[4688.18 --> 4691.08] Just throw to the third team that no one knows about. +[4691.66 --> 4692.06] Yeah. +[4693.02 --> 4693.76] I don't know. +[4693.76 --> 4695.90] All right. +[4695.90 --> 4695.92] All right. +[4696.02 --> 4699.86] Asus is teasing a new smartwatch posted by Dietrich W. +[4699.90 --> 4700.56] Luke use Opera? +[4700.76 --> 4701.06] No. +[4701.24 --> 4702.00] It's not better. +[4702.26 --> 4702.52] Yeah. +[4702.66 --> 4703.22] I've tried. +[4703.88 --> 4705.40] Opera is so impossible to use. +[4705.40 --> 4705.78] Yes. +[4705.94 --> 4709.36] But part of the issue I have with Opera is using Google services with it. +[4709.66 --> 4712.06] Like YouTube is just broken. +[4713.18 --> 4715.46] Like and I'm not talking viewing YouTube videos. +[4715.58 --> 4717.40] I mean the content creator tools. +[4717.50 --> 4717.72] Yeah. +[4717.72 --> 4718.84] I cannot use. +[4718.84 --> 4719.04] Yeah. +[4719.64 --> 4719.98] All right. +[4719.98 --> 4720.96] I have Opera on my computer. +[4721.04 --> 4721.58] I do use it. +[4721.70 --> 4727.42] So basically, time has been transformed and we have changed is a quote that they're using +[4727.42 --> 4730.78] and they are going to apparently give us some more details on September the 3rd. +[4732.08 --> 4732.48] Hooray. +[4732.48 --> 4732.80] Hooray. +[4733.80 --> 4734.76] So there we go. +[4737.22 --> 4739.44] Apparently, it'll be priced somewhere between $100 and $150. +[4740.48 --> 4742.08] I guess that's all we really have to say about that. +[4742.14 --> 4745.02] Why don't we blast our way through some more of these like quickfire topics. +[4745.34 --> 4745.58] All right. +[4745.66 --> 4748.62] You just pick ones that are interesting to you and I'll pick ones that are interesting to you. +[4748.70 --> 4751.26] Facebook is offering bounties for bugs found in Oculus Rift. +[4751.36 --> 4755.04] This is not the first time we've seen this on like a hardware model, but it's interesting +[4755.04 --> 4759.72] how Oculus Rift, which is a company that will be releasing and publishing games and their +[4759.72 --> 4767.44] Rift device and possibly other things in the future is offering a bounty for finding bugs +[4767.44 --> 4769.48] with a minimum reward of $500. +[4770.20 --> 4775.82] When we see early access being such a big, pathetic, useless piece of crap and then we +[4775.82 --> 4778.82] see companies like Oculus throwing bounties at people. +[4778.92 --> 4780.96] I just found that to be a weird contrast. +[4781.16 --> 4782.14] Yay, Facebook accusation. +[4782.32 --> 4782.68] Yay. +[4782.86 --> 4783.18] Actually. +[4783.82 --> 4784.70] Pretty much. +[4784.88 --> 4785.34] All right. +[4785.70 --> 4786.84] I've got one here. +[4786.84 --> 4790.02] There's an app called, shoot, what's it called again? +[4790.78 --> 4792.52] Called Ignore No More. +[4792.70 --> 4793.22] Oh yeah. +[4793.28 --> 4799.72] That allows a parent or guardian or someone else to stop their kids from ignoring their +[4799.72 --> 4800.10] calls. +[4800.60 --> 4802.90] So, you know, you want to get your kids some caller ID. +[4803.04 --> 4803.90] You kind of go, yeah, sure. +[4803.98 --> 4808.94] You can know when I'm calling, but if you don't pick up my calls, then I will remotely +[4808.94 --> 4810.64] lock your phone so you can't use it. +[4810.92 --> 4814.10] So if you're not going to talk to me, then you're not going to talk to anyone. +[4814.10 --> 4819.36] And we actually had a lot of people on the Linus Tech Tips forum get really upset about +[4819.36 --> 4822.62] this and kind of go, invasion of privacy, this, that, or the other. +[4822.68 --> 4823.28] No, it's not. +[4823.74 --> 4830.04] If part of the deal is, look, junior, who's 13 years old or 12 years old and probably, +[4830.44 --> 4834.70] you know, in my generation would have been considered too young to have their own phone. +[4834.70 --> 4836.42] Like, look, junior, you want a phone? +[4836.68 --> 4836.88] Sure. +[4837.22 --> 4837.82] That's fine. +[4838.24 --> 4840.58] But I expect it. +[4840.82 --> 4846.14] Part of the, part of the verbal contract here is you have a phone so we can get in touch +[4846.14 --> 4846.64] with each other. +[4846.72 --> 4846.92] Yeah. +[4847.14 --> 4851.40] If you are ignoring that part of the verbal contract, then you don't deserve to use your +[4851.40 --> 4851.92] phone right now. +[4852.40 --> 4852.82] That's it. +[4852.82 --> 4856.06] So what they have to do is they have to call their parents back to get an unlock code. +[4858.02 --> 4864.56] I think one of my parents might call me out on this, but as far as I can remember, I paid +[4864.56 --> 4866.90] for my cell phone for the entire duration of having a cell phone. +[4867.22 --> 4867.48] Okay. +[4867.52 --> 4874.04] My parents paid for mine because the deal was that I got a car and a cell phone and I have +[4874.04 --> 4874.78] four siblings. +[4875.34 --> 4878.78] So the deal was I had to be available to drive people. +[4879.10 --> 4879.66] Oh, that makes sense. +[4879.68 --> 4880.58] And I had to be accessible. +[4880.90 --> 4881.12] Yeah. +[4881.20 --> 4882.60] And I got a car and a phone out of it. +[4882.64 --> 4883.76] So I was like, yeah, deal. +[4883.92 --> 4887.32] I was a nerd and all my friends came over to my house because we had all the coolest, +[4887.48 --> 4891.26] like, stuff to play with in terms of, like, video games or whatever. +[4891.62 --> 4893.58] So I didn't really need one. +[4893.88 --> 4894.08] Yeah. +[4894.10 --> 4895.16] I lived in the middle of nowhere. +[4895.66 --> 4898.92] Like, it was a 10 minute drive to the closest convenience store. +[4899.14 --> 4900.72] Like, we had horses and stuff. +[4900.72 --> 4906.14] So for me, it made a lot of sense because my parents actually probably made out like +[4906.14 --> 4909.76] bandits in the amount of time that they saved. +[4910.04 --> 4913.98] You know, me driving to town, which is 20 minutes there and 20 minutes back every time +[4913.98 --> 4917.68] someone else needed to miss the school bus or whatever else. +[4917.80 --> 4919.38] And that's worth it for you because you have a car and a phone. +[4919.54 --> 4921.12] Because I have a car and a phone, dog. +[4921.46 --> 4923.50] Actually, the only reason, I didn't even want a phone. +[4923.60 --> 4926.68] The only reason why I got one was because the girlfriend I had at the time was like, +[4926.84 --> 4928.02] dude, what the hell, get a phone. +[4928.02 --> 4931.40] I know you don't want a phone because whenever you lose or break your phone, +[4931.56 --> 4936.96] it's impossible to get in touch with you for like two weeks while you drag ass about replacing it. +[4938.60 --> 4939.42] Oh, man. +[4939.76 --> 4941.36] Anyway, I mean... +[4941.36 --> 4942.12] They're so expensive. +[4942.72 --> 4946.60] I mean, I think that people were upset about this because they saw it as something that, +[4946.72 --> 4949.36] like, parents would stealthily install on their kids' phones. +[4949.68 --> 4950.90] But that's not it at all. +[4951.02 --> 4951.20] Yeah. +[4951.32 --> 4954.54] Because it tells the kid, yo, dog, your phone's locked. +[4954.64 --> 4955.62] Call your mom to unlock it. +[4955.62 --> 4957.32] Yeah, you, like, have to know that it's on your phone. +[4957.32 --> 4958.38] This is part of the deal. +[4958.78 --> 4958.96] Yeah. +[4960.44 --> 4961.74] Okay, so next one. +[4961.84 --> 4963.82] Jump to the user modifies their Windows load screen thing. +[4964.00 --> 4964.20] Sure. +[4964.76 --> 4965.26] Because that's awesome. +[4965.26 --> 4965.48] Really? +[4965.54 --> 4966.24] You're taking that one? +[4966.38 --> 4967.24] I wanted to do that one. +[4967.28 --> 4967.70] Well, okay. +[4967.80 --> 4968.70] No, no, you can have it. +[4968.72 --> 4970.22] Hitchhiking Robot makes its way across Canada. +[4970.50 --> 4970.78] Oh, yeah. +[4970.80 --> 4971.54] That's pretty cool, too. +[4971.54 --> 4971.74] Boom. +[4973.86 --> 4974.90] I'll search for Hitch. +[4975.08 --> 4975.50] There we go. +[4975.56 --> 4975.96] There you go. +[4976.10 --> 4976.74] The Hitchbot. +[4976.98 --> 4977.90] So, apparently... +[4977.90 --> 4978.76] Posted by QWERTY Warrior. +[4978.76 --> 4984.48] QWERTY Warrior wanted to be a huge jerk and name the topic for this. +[4984.88 --> 4986.58] Robot tricks gullible Canadians. +[4986.80 --> 4988.50] Yeah, I didn't even load up his post. +[4989.66 --> 4991.32] Because he's a huge butt. +[4991.32 --> 4997.50] But, anyways, almost everyone that took this robot along with him knew it was coming before +[4997.50 --> 4998.56] they even got it. +[4998.56 --> 5001.10] And not, like, a nice huge butt, like, booty. +[5001.78 --> 5005.60] We're talking, like, sagging and, like, hasn't been cleaned. +[5005.78 --> 5006.06] Like, divoted. +[5006.46 --> 5006.82] Yeah. +[5007.54 --> 5010.90] With, like, you know, gross. +[5011.26 --> 5011.44] Yeah. +[5011.52 --> 5012.36] Slightly discoloring. +[5012.36 --> 5013.32] That's the kind of butt. +[5013.52 --> 5013.90] Hair. +[5014.00 --> 5014.46] Anyway, sorry. +[5014.54 --> 5014.90] Carry on. +[5014.90 --> 5019.08] Yeah, so almost everyone that picked it up knew it was coming beforehand because it +[5019.08 --> 5020.16] had been blasted in the news. +[5021.10 --> 5027.40] And the idea was it came all the way from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to Victoria, D.C. by hitchhiking. +[5027.66 --> 5029.26] So that's the little hitchhiking robot. +[5029.88 --> 5034.32] And someone has to pick it up and then take it along with them. +[5034.72 --> 5038.18] And it made it all the way, which is kind of amazing, especially with reading through +[5038.18 --> 5044.00] the comments of our super high-class, totally upstart citizens on our forum who basically +[5044.00 --> 5046.24] all said that they would just steal it and take it home. +[5047.68 --> 5048.34] But yeah. +[5048.58 --> 5049.76] So there's the hitchhiking robot. +[5050.12 --> 5050.86] Someone finds it. +[5050.92 --> 5051.88] This is obviously scripted. +[5051.98 --> 5053.36] Obviously a promotional video. +[5053.68 --> 5053.92] Yeah. +[5054.84 --> 5055.62] Oh, look. +[5056.08 --> 5057.16] I pick it up. +[5057.72 --> 5059.24] And I put it in my car. +[5062.28 --> 5065.86] And apparently it could, like, talk to you on some very basic level and stuff. +[5066.10 --> 5067.18] And it could tweet out. +[5067.54 --> 5069.02] And it could do some other stuff, too. +[5069.36 --> 5069.88] That's cool. +[5070.22 --> 5071.96] So all it got was, like, scratched. +[5072.46 --> 5073.04] It got scratched. +[5073.04 --> 5077.22] And it's LCD protective thing had, like, a small crack in it and stuff. +[5077.30 --> 5079.76] But it made it all the way, which is actually kind of fantastic. +[5080.12 --> 5085.16] Again, especially considering the massively amazing citizens of the LTT forum who all said +[5085.16 --> 5085.88] they would steal it. +[5087.02 --> 5087.90] So this is cool. +[5088.64 --> 5089.82] I love this video. +[5089.82 --> 5090.42] Oh, this is awesome. +[5090.42 --> 5093.24] Yeah, this is, like, super, super badass. +[5093.24 --> 5108.94] Oh, there was no sound. +[5109.90 --> 5110.68] I heard it. +[5110.92 --> 5111.20] Did you? +[5111.92 --> 5112.22] Yeah. +[5112.22 --> 5115.22] No, I mean, I don't think on the stream there is sound. +[5115.34 --> 5115.56] Oh. +[5116.44 --> 5117.44] It's not going through the cable. +[5121.82 --> 5122.40] There we go. +[5122.76 --> 5126.32] So it actually has the intro music as well. +[5126.54 --> 5129.28] And he has guides on there on how to do it if you want to figure it out. +[5129.52 --> 5131.48] And what was I going to say? +[5131.48 --> 5135.10] He said apparently his fans aren't actually that loud because a lot of people grilled him on that. +[5135.20 --> 5137.74] It's just because he had to crank the volume a lot so you could probably hear it. +[5137.74 --> 5139.40] That is so cool. +[5139.70 --> 5140.70] I think it's actually pretty sick. +[5140.78 --> 5141.68] All right, you got maybe one more? +[5142.06 --> 5143.22] I've got one more that I want to do. +[5145.68 --> 5147.12] The Minecraft hard drive thing? +[5147.16 --> 5147.68] Is that what you're doing? +[5148.70 --> 5150.02] No, I wasn't even going to do that. +[5150.12 --> 5151.74] We have so much stuff this week. +[5153.02 --> 5154.60] No, I wasn't even going to do that one. +[5154.60 --> 5159.72] Okay, Google's planning to introduce accounts for children under 13 posted by Victorious Secret. +[5159.98 --> 5163.44] It's going to allow parents to dictate some of the terms of how that Google account will work. +[5163.52 --> 5167.68] I think this is really important because as it is, kids under 13 are using Google accounts. +[5167.74 --> 5170.18] And they're just not being regulated correctly. +[5170.36 --> 5170.74] Okay, you're next. +[5170.74 --> 5173.16] They're not being regulated at all, which is kind of ridiculous. +[5173.62 --> 5177.88] In Minecraft, someone made a, I think, single kilobyte hard drive. +[5177.90 --> 5178.86] Yeah, one kilobyte. +[5178.98 --> 5181.52] Which is actually kind of awesome. +[5181.68 --> 5182.98] It's interesting to see this kind of stuff. +[5182.98 --> 5189.94] I've seen, in my opinion, slightly more interesting things on the incredibly ridiculous side of things. +[5190.04 --> 5194.88] But he's got to the incredibly ridiculous side of things at all, which is super cool. +[5195.34 --> 5197.08] So it's pretty cool to show. +[5197.08 --> 5202.10] And he shows like miniature versions of it so you can actually understand how the whole thing works, which is awesome. +[5202.10 --> 5204.24] Because a lot of these really big projects don't have that. +[5204.52 --> 5210.78] So he basically shows you the fundamentals of what you need to know so that you can build your own, which is, again, super awesome. +[5211.30 --> 5213.32] But yeah, it can store one kilobyte of information. +[5213.68 --> 5214.62] Yep, very cool. +[5214.74 --> 5215.44] Pretty cool. +[5215.82 --> 5216.36] I like that a lot. +[5216.36 --> 5219.72] My next thing that I wanted to hit was... +[5219.72 --> 5220.32] China themes. +[5220.54 --> 5221.46] No, actually. +[5221.58 --> 5226.94] I wanted to do EA is not sending reviewers copies of Sims 4. +[5227.36 --> 5229.94] So this was posted by Mind Tricks on the forum. +[5230.30 --> 5233.94] And the original source here that we have is kitguru.net. +[5234.80 --> 5236.52] That is... +[5236.52 --> 5240.18] And okay, so they're not sending out review copies. +[5240.42 --> 5243.20] There's also no, if I remember correctly, toddlers. +[5243.20 --> 5244.24] No toddler stage. +[5244.26 --> 5245.20] And no pools. +[5245.52 --> 5246.22] No pools. +[5247.22 --> 5248.36] It looks like... +[5248.36 --> 5252.72] I mean, we have this conversation every time there's a new Sims where it's like, +[5252.72 --> 5257.06] yeah, they downgraded a bunch of crap because all those expansions that you went and bought, +[5257.42 --> 5261.24] you're going to have to rebuy them because the base game doesn't include the expansions +[5261.24 --> 5262.04] of the previous games. +[5262.06 --> 5263.76] But how can it not include pools? +[5264.54 --> 5268.40] Or like developmental phases of the Sims. +[5268.80 --> 5268.84] Yeah. +[5268.92 --> 5270.48] Like they're right in the title of the game. +[5270.68 --> 5271.06] Yeah. +[5271.72 --> 5274.24] Like those are two pretty fundamental things, guys. +[5274.34 --> 5275.02] What are you doing? +[5275.88 --> 5276.72] Oh my God. +[5277.66 --> 5278.18] Yeah. +[5278.18 --> 5278.38] Yeah. +[5278.58 --> 5282.78] Ultimately, it's more complexity in terms of what tech's there and what isn't there. +[5282.94 --> 5283.36] Oh yeah. +[5283.52 --> 5285.44] And what we have to build to support this. +[5285.54 --> 5287.16] How do we cut down into the terrain? +[5287.54 --> 5290.76] How do we get Sims going through portals across different levels of pools? +[5291.10 --> 5294.46] There's so much more going on in the background that you don't end up seeing just to have a +[5294.46 --> 5295.08] Sim go swimming. +[5295.76 --> 5297.80] But it's like, well, you did it before. +[5298.48 --> 5298.78] And like... +[5298.78 --> 5302.72] And it's been done since like a really long time ago. +[5303.08 --> 5304.16] Like, come on. +[5304.46 --> 5305.46] It's not that hard. +[5305.46 --> 5307.60] We're losing some of the open world aspects. +[5307.84 --> 5310.50] So there's going to be actually loading as you go between zones. +[5313.06 --> 5314.04] Oh God. +[5314.58 --> 5314.98] Yeah. +[5315.70 --> 5316.80] I don't know how they can... +[5316.80 --> 5320.92] Like, it must be a really hard job to figure out how to make your product consistently worse. +[5322.08 --> 5323.62] No, it can't be that hard. +[5323.82 --> 5324.66] It's got to be hard. +[5324.72 --> 5326.16] Because how do you pick pools? +[5326.34 --> 5328.58] Buildings can now have a maximum of only two levels. +[5329.96 --> 5331.08] It's just like... +[5331.08 --> 5334.64] So, I don't know. +[5334.64 --> 5337.60] On the one hand, I think one super... +[5337.60 --> 5338.86] I don't think this is what they had in mind. +[5339.10 --> 5345.26] But I think one super cool positive effect of them not giving reviewers early copies of Sims 4 +[5345.26 --> 5353.72] is that that really opens up the door for the average consumer to create a review that can actually generate a fair bit of traffic. +[5353.72 --> 5362.70] Because we know that when we release a video about a piece of hardware and we're two months late, it'll get X amount of exposure, even at our level. +[5362.82 --> 5364.22] Even with all the subscribers we have. +[5364.28 --> 5364.92] And all that... +[5364.92 --> 5367.12] The tweets that we can send out and all that stuff. +[5367.44 --> 5373.56] And if we release it at release date, when everyone else hits it, we'll get X times something. +[5373.56 --> 5377.70] And if we release it early, then we'll get X times something much bigger. +[5378.02 --> 5379.14] That's how it works. +[5379.48 --> 5384.66] And that's why there are embargoes and NDAs and release dates so that no one gets an advantage. +[5385.24 --> 5389.54] But by no one, they mean no one who's a well-established media outlet. +[5389.54 --> 5395.30] Whereas having just an on-shelf date where everyone goes to the store and buys a copy of the game, +[5395.38 --> 5401.32] I think lets grassroots reviewers have an opportunity to be the one to break the story. +[5401.80 --> 5404.72] And especially in gaming, we're pretty big. +[5405.22 --> 5410.90] We can't get interviews with anyone because we're not established in gaming. +[5411.26 --> 5416.70] It's impossible for us to properly get proper interviews with any big AAA developers. +[5416.70 --> 5420.36] We can't get interviews with Blizzard. +[5420.56 --> 5421.78] We can't get interviews with Ubi. +[5421.94 --> 5423.26] We can't get interviews with 2K. +[5423.42 --> 5424.62] We can't get interviews with... +[5424.62 --> 5428.96] I mean, on the hardware side, someone like Oculus, you interviewed Palmer. +[5429.64 --> 5431.22] Like, on the hardware side, we're good. +[5431.30 --> 5432.88] We actually have that street cred. +[5432.88 --> 5438.76] And we even have the street cred for gaming hardware. +[5439.20 --> 5441.60] Like, it's not that tenuous a link. +[5441.76 --> 5441.98] Yeah. +[5442.12 --> 5446.52] Whereas if you are completely a nobody walking around on the show floor at PAX, +[5446.70 --> 5447.98] you don't stand a chance. +[5448.06 --> 5453.42] Whereas if everyone kind of stopped giving out pre-release copies and went to... +[5454.42 --> 5455.02] I don't know. +[5455.14 --> 5456.38] I think it could be interesting. +[5456.80 --> 5461.72] To interject here for a second, the Palmer interview, we only got because I ambushed him in the booth. +[5461.72 --> 5462.72] That wasn't preset. +[5463.16 --> 5467.52] We still don't have a proper media contact there that will actually answer anything. +[5467.52 --> 5468.08] Never mind. +[5468.08 --> 5473.90] And in the Palmer interview, he said that he did really, in fact, like Linux because he thought we were Linux tech tips. +[5475.84 --> 5481.08] That was the cut that didn't end up getting in because there was no audio recording because Brandon rushed. +[5481.08 --> 5487.80] So, maybe not as cool, but they're like, they're more actually a gaming company. +[5487.98 --> 5488.14] Yes. +[5488.70 --> 5489.58] And they are... +[5489.58 --> 5490.10] Alright, fine. +[5490.42 --> 5491.96] Everyone ever wants to interview them. +[5492.18 --> 5492.36] Right. +[5492.40 --> 5496.18] So if you contact their press email, there's pretty much no chance you're going to get a reply. +[5496.48 --> 5496.74] Right. +[5496.88 --> 5498.32] It's basically a dumping ground. +[5498.60 --> 5499.56] I know that for a fact. +[5499.78 --> 5502.78] You have to have one of their individual emails and they're not publicly broadcast. +[5502.78 --> 5504.08] So, like, we... +[5504.08 --> 5504.58] Yeah. +[5506.64 --> 5507.04] Yeah. +[5507.46 --> 5511.80] I have it on good faith that he actually liked that interview, but we still have no way to properly contact him +[5511.80 --> 5515.74] because he told us as he was leaving that we should talk to his press guy. +[5515.86 --> 5519.96] We went to go talk to his press guy and he was like, yeah, no. +[5520.60 --> 5521.76] Message the media contact. +[5522.02 --> 5523.86] We're like, yeah, that's not going to work, is it? +[5523.96 --> 5525.34] He was like, uh... +[5525.34 --> 5527.14] I'm like, okay, whatever. +[5527.92 --> 5528.32] Fine. +[5529.04 --> 5532.08] Alright, well, I guess we suck and we're not important. +[5532.08 --> 5533.04] So, here we go. +[5534.42 --> 5535.82] We're important to some people. +[5535.94 --> 5537.08] Yeah, we're important to someone. +[5537.66 --> 5538.72] I just wish we could get... +[5538.72 --> 5539.04] Hopefully you guys... +[5539.04 --> 5541.16] Actually, I feel pretty important right now. +[5541.24 --> 5543.64] We have over 6,100 people watching right now. +[5544.26 --> 5545.12] You guys are amazing. +[5545.30 --> 5545.78] I know, right? +[5546.02 --> 5548.44] Tested always gets the cool Oculus interviews. +[5548.60 --> 5549.32] I'm so jelly. +[5550.14 --> 5550.50] Ah. +[5551.74 --> 5552.10] Ah. +[5552.66 --> 5553.60] So is that pretty much it? +[5553.84 --> 5554.76] Do we have anything else? +[5554.92 --> 5558.68] We could do that horrible, stupid thing that the Chinese theaters are testing. +[5558.86 --> 5559.76] Yeah, let's end with that. +[5559.86 --> 5560.82] Yeah, let's end with that. +[5560.82 --> 5561.96] Well, this is ridiculous. +[5562.32 --> 5562.80] Hilarious. +[5562.92 --> 5566.32] I mean, maybe something is getting lost in translation here. +[5566.52 --> 5566.82] I know. +[5566.82 --> 5567.82] But like... +[5567.82 --> 5568.38] China? +[5569.02 --> 5571.06] You guys serious, brah? +[5571.52 --> 5572.60] So, check this out. +[5572.76 --> 5578.16] Cinemas in major cities in China have started testing the bullet screen, which allows the +[5578.16 --> 5583.98] audience to text comments about the film that will be shown on screen. +[5584.22 --> 5587.42] They are filtered, and people have to pay to submit them. +[5587.42 --> 5589.94] I think it's like 10 cents or something like that. +[5589.94 --> 5590.76] Equivalency of 10 cents. +[5590.90 --> 5592.04] Equivalent of 10 cents. +[5592.44 --> 5599.94] Sensitive or forbidden words like swearing or democracy are probably going to get filtered +[5599.94 --> 5600.28] there. +[5600.78 --> 5603.54] But, yeah. +[5603.54 --> 5603.74] Yeah. +[5603.74 --> 5608.82] And it has to be approved to be a bullet screen film by the writer and their contract with +[5608.82 --> 5609.24] the producer. +[5609.78 --> 5610.30] So... +[5610.30 --> 5616.48] I can't think of anything that anyone sitting in a theater with me could contribute to +[5616.48 --> 5620.68] my viewing experience by putting it in front of my face while I'm trying to watch a movie. +[5621.52 --> 5622.54] That is ridiculous. +[5622.54 --> 5623.54] Okay. +[5624.72 --> 5631.10] I can see having something like chat with other people in the theater. +[5631.38 --> 5633.28] Like a Twitch chat style thing. +[5633.86 --> 5635.64] That's what I thought it was when I first heard about this. +[5635.64 --> 5636.38] On your seat. +[5636.64 --> 5637.54] Or like on... +[5638.08 --> 5638.40] Okay. +[5638.80 --> 5643.60] So, say for example, they have a Wi-Fi hotspot inside each theater so people can tune in on +[5643.60 --> 5644.76] their phones and chat with each other. +[5645.44 --> 5649.22] You know, some people get really bothered by the glowing screen and the dark theater thing. +[5649.40 --> 5651.62] I personally give exactly zero craps about that. +[5651.62 --> 5654.18] I'm not going to turn my phone on because other people find it rude. +[5654.32 --> 5659.10] But if that was the route you wanted to go with this, that's a lot less intrusive than +[5659.10 --> 5665.30] putting someone's freaking text message on the screen while I'm trying to watch the movie. +[5665.62 --> 5669.92] So, if you like logged in, if there was an app or something and it was like, let's discuss +[5669.92 --> 5670.82] the movie while we're watching. +[5670.92 --> 5671.84] That way it's very optional. +[5672.02 --> 5673.44] People don't have to look at it. +[5674.20 --> 5674.60] That's... +[5674.60 --> 5675.38] This is ridiculous. +[5675.56 --> 5676.40] This is just stupid. +[5676.52 --> 5679.30] This is the worst possible implementation I can think of. +[5679.30 --> 5684.32] I had like a semi-emergency thing once where I needed to be in texting contact with someone +[5684.32 --> 5685.70] and I was in a movie theater. +[5687.30 --> 5692.88] So, like you'd think just leave, but it was very intermittent messages and it wasn't like +[5692.88 --> 5693.26] I was... +[5693.26 --> 5695.48] There was no point in time where I knew if I was going to get another one that I needed +[5695.48 --> 5696.38] to reply to and stuff. +[5696.54 --> 5696.82] Hold on. +[5696.86 --> 5698.58] People are like, but Twitch chat is retarded. +[5699.12 --> 5703.56] I'm like, this is exactly why it shouldn't be across the front of our video right now. +[5703.56 --> 5703.78] Yeah. +[5703.92 --> 5705.40] So, if someone wants to talk to that, they should be on. +[5705.40 --> 5705.96] Go ahead. +[5706.28 --> 5707.28] It should be optional. +[5707.70 --> 5708.02] Exactly. +[5708.58 --> 5711.54] What I did was I put my sweater on backwards and put the hood up. +[5711.62 --> 5711.86] Right. +[5711.92 --> 5714.84] And then used my phone under it so there was no light emission at all. +[5715.08 --> 5715.44] Nice. +[5715.56 --> 5716.62] I was like, problem solved. +[5718.72 --> 5719.04] Yeah. +[5719.20 --> 5720.16] I guess that's about it. +[5720.50 --> 5722.86] We can after show to talk about anything else if we want to. +[5723.54 --> 5723.86] Yeah. +[5723.86 --> 5727.22] I promised to do a garage sale this week, but I don't feel like it. +[5727.86 --> 5729.12] I've barely slept. +[5729.38 --> 5730.30] I have a newborn. +[5731.90 --> 5732.76] You know what? +[5732.82 --> 5740.50] Maybe what I'll do is I should start just listing them at night and we can just say, +[5740.50 --> 5743.00] Hey, there's garage sale items. +[5743.22 --> 5748.96] And then like, Hey, there's a price drop on your after party stream or something like that. +[5749.22 --> 5749.50] Sure. +[5749.70 --> 5750.12] Or something. +[5750.36 --> 5750.78] I don't know. +[5750.78 --> 5755.92] Or like maybe what we could do is we could do like a really short garage sale after the +[5755.92 --> 5756.18] show. +[5756.42 --> 5760.04] Maybe I'll prep this next week and I'll just be like, here's all the items that are going +[5760.04 --> 5760.94] to be available tonight. +[5761.30 --> 5762.62] And then like set them all live. +[5762.96 --> 5763.18] Yeah. +[5763.30 --> 5763.88] Stay tuned. +[5764.82 --> 5765.90] Or something like that. +[5766.32 --> 5766.70] All right. +[5768.14 --> 5768.96] Good night, everyone. +[5769.30 --> 5770.48] Thank you for watching the WAN show. +[5770.48 --> 5774.68] Thank you to our sponsors HyperX and Lynda.com for making this episode possible. +[5774.86 --> 5777.16] Thank you to Luke for making this episode possible. +[5777.86 --> 5780.52] Thank you to Linus for making this episode possible. +[5780.78 --> 5783.86] It's all about the fishing for thanks and fishing for compliments. +[5783.86 --> 5786.34] I wasn't fishing for that at all. +[5786.34 --> 5788.62] Your shoes look so great today. +[5788.78 --> 5789.24] Oh my God. +[5789.28 --> 5790.34] Your dress is fantastic. +[5790.56 --> 5791.18] Thank you. +[5793.98 --> 5794.92] Oh, dang it. +[5798.74 --> 5799.14] Okay. +[5799.14 --> 5801.60] We can still hear you. +[5801.60 --> 5819.42] Oh yeah. +[5820.60 --> 5821.04] Derp. +[5821.04 --> 5825.38] Speaking of derp, there was one other big news thing this week. +[5826.02 --> 5831.00] It's like Reddit and a bunch of other awesome, hold on, let me find it. +[5831.46 --> 5831.98] Where's derp? +[5832.22 --> 5832.32] Yeah. +[5832.38 --> 5836.04] Imgur, Twitch, Fark, and Stack Exchange Research Partnership. +[5836.52 --> 5838.78] I think Reddit was also involved, at least I thought so. +[5839.56 --> 5843.26] The point is it's called derp and it stands for Digital Ecology's Research Partnership. +[5843.26 --> 5845.52] I can't believe they called it derp. +[5845.60 --> 5846.42] Reddit, Imgur, Twitch. +[5846.76 --> 5847.70] Oh yeah, I said Reddit. +[5847.96 --> 5850.88] See, this is why I can't do an after party or a garage sale right now. +[5851.60 --> 5852.66] Clearly not capable. +[5852.66 --> 5852.72] I know. +[5853.76 --> 5853.98] Bye. +[5853.98 --> 5854.56] Bye.

see. +[66.72 --> 67.20] All right. +[67.30 --> 68.48] So, you know what, guys? +[68.54 --> 77.48] I hate to kind of make you sit through this, but because it will take me about an extra 6 to 12 hours to have the WAN Show archive up, +[77.48 --> 80.34] if we don't do... +[80.34 --> 81.84] Like, if I cut it together afterward. +[82.02 --> 83.32] There are a few reasons for that. +[83.68 --> 85.00] And it's absolutely terrible. +[85.22 --> 89.24] So, we're going to kind of just start over, and then we're going to nuke our first topic. +[89.38 --> 90.20] So, we're going to do an extremely... +[90.20 --> 90.38] Take two. +[91.18 --> 92.34] ...extremely quick intro. +[93.12 --> 94.76] Paid prioritization on the internet. +[95.72 --> 98.86] Watchdogs is going to run at crappy resolutions, not on the PC. +[99.52 --> 100.50] Knock to a fans. +[100.62 --> 101.32] New one's coming. +[101.54 --> 103.38] And Adaptive Sync is also coming. +[104.42 --> 104.78] Boom. +[104.78 --> 134.52] So, our sponsors today are Squarespace.org. +[134.78 --> 137.66] The fast, easy way to create your own beautiful website. +[138.16 --> 140.78] And Asus with the G750JZ. +[141.98 --> 146.30] This laptop is so great that I use it with my mate. +[149.06 --> 149.84] Don't hate. +[153.16 --> 155.36] I can't rhyme in. +[155.38 --> 156.76] Your response is too late. +[157.28 --> 158.34] There you go. +[158.88 --> 159.36] All right. +[159.48 --> 161.78] So let's move on to our... +[161.78 --> 164.12] Oh, I guess since it was one of our headline topics, +[164.12 --> 166.18] we better at least sort of talk about it very briefly. +[166.72 --> 169.14] So FCC approves internet fast lane. +[169.26 --> 171.24] Basically, that's just a way of screwing over people +[171.24 --> 173.58] who don't have the money to pay for the fast lane. +[173.86 --> 174.68] You know what's funny? +[174.80 --> 176.94] Actually, I guess we didn't talk about this last time around, +[177.06 --> 179.64] but it really is like that. +[179.94 --> 182.66] Because calling it an internet fast lane +[182.66 --> 186.98] is actually the very best way to explain what it is. +[187.26 --> 189.64] It is a way of making sure that the people +[189.64 --> 191.66] who don't have way too much money +[191.66 --> 193.64] so that they just don't even care anymore +[193.64 --> 198.06] just all get stuck in like sitting in traffic +[198.06 --> 199.34] and wasting their time. +[199.56 --> 200.88] They're taking a three-lane highway +[200.88 --> 203.40] and making it so that one of the lanes is paid for only. +[203.54 --> 206.64] So the other two lanes have way too much traffic all the time. +[206.76 --> 207.82] And then this one's awesome, +[208.02 --> 209.20] but only has really rich people. +[209.36 --> 210.44] I mean, the... +[210.44 --> 211.34] So have you ever... +[211.34 --> 212.20] Have you ever been to Toronto? +[213.78 --> 215.18] For like half an hour. +[215.18 --> 217.18] Okay, so Toronto has... +[217.76 --> 220.10] Basically, they have like two kind of... +[220.10 --> 222.90] Not quite, but like two somewhat equivalent highways. +[223.46 --> 225.18] And one of them is a toll highway. +[225.62 --> 229.40] And the other one is the sit and don't move highway. +[229.40 --> 233.38] And the toll highway is so expensive +[233.38 --> 235.10] because you actually... +[235.10 --> 236.32] You get told when you get on +[236.32 --> 239.98] and then it actually keeps track of how far you go +[239.98 --> 243.96] and then tolls you like based on how far you went at the exit. +[243.96 --> 248.82] And the way they enforce this is it's all cameras. +[249.34 --> 250.00] But get this. +[250.04 --> 251.32] If you try to dodge the toll, +[251.78 --> 252.60] they'll actually... +[252.60 --> 256.52] They keep records of all the vehicles matching a given description. +[257.02 --> 259.44] And when they catch you, they look for patterns. +[260.00 --> 261.28] And when they catch you, +[261.48 --> 263.64] they hit you with the entire bill plus interest. +[264.12 --> 265.74] So like it's absolutely brutal. +[265.90 --> 266.96] And basically, I remember... +[267.60 --> 268.10] I forget. +[268.24 --> 270.42] I forget how much it costs. +[270.72 --> 271.74] But I was there. +[271.74 --> 275.96] And I worked it out. +[276.02 --> 279.82] And it was something like an hour of your wage per day +[279.82 --> 281.98] if you were making like okay money +[281.98 --> 284.36] just to get to and from work. +[284.48 --> 285.86] Aside from gas. +[286.02 --> 287.04] Aside from insurance. +[287.42 --> 291.36] Which of course the local government is also collecting taxes on. +[292.10 --> 292.50] Yeah. +[293.02 --> 294.68] It's just absolutely brutal. +[295.10 --> 295.92] That's nasty. +[296.10 --> 297.78] So that is what a fast lane is. +[297.92 --> 300.06] A fast lane is a way of saying +[300.06 --> 302.16] you got lots of money? +[302.68 --> 303.78] All right, man. +[303.96 --> 305.30] You don't got lots of money? +[306.10 --> 306.78] You can go. +[306.84 --> 309.78] Get in that one highway that doesn't move ever. +[310.02 --> 311.06] Yeah, pretty much. +[311.18 --> 311.54] Okay. +[311.86 --> 312.28] Okay. +[312.52 --> 315.76] So this is pretty fantastic. +[316.02 --> 319.00] This was posted originally on the forum by Death Jester. +[319.14 --> 321.14] We're going to go ahead and share my screen here. +[322.02 --> 322.54] Watchdogs. +[322.62 --> 324.48] The Watchdogs Experience. +[324.48 --> 325.56] So okay. +[325.78 --> 327.54] So here's a quote from the article +[327.54 --> 329.14] which was on the Ubisoft blog. +[329.74 --> 330.92] Our next gen system +[330.92 --> 332.30] or on next gen systems +[332.30 --> 335.24] the game will run at 900p on PS4 +[335.24 --> 337.08] which actually is not that bad. +[337.64 --> 340.10] Upscaled 900p is not that bad. +[340.80 --> 341.50] That's what? +[341.58 --> 344.00] Like 80% of the resolution of 1080p-ish? +[344.26 --> 345.80] It's still not 1080p +[345.80 --> 347.70] and 1080p is kind of meh. +[348.22 --> 349.04] On a TV though. +[349.12 --> 350.04] Remember, you're playing on a TV. +[350.22 --> 350.38] That's true. +[350.44 --> 351.96] So 1080p is like as good as it gets. +[351.96 --> 354.70] Not everyone plays these on TVs. +[355.28 --> 355.76] That's true. +[355.84 --> 357.40] But you're still playing on a 1080p display. +[357.68 --> 359.10] Especially like dorm room people. +[359.22 --> 359.36] Yeah. +[359.52 --> 359.68] Yeah. +[359.68 --> 359.96] That's true. +[360.04 --> 360.22] Okay. +[360.42 --> 361.98] So you're playing at 1080p. +[362.02 --> 363.24] So 900p, not that bad. +[363.48 --> 367.40] It's going to run at 792p on the Xbox One. +[370.54 --> 372.60] What is 792p? +[373.82 --> 376.66] Like they're just inventing things. +[378.12 --> 380.82] It's probably the highest they could get +[380.82 --> 381.82] that sits at 30fps. +[381.82 --> 384.50] Yeah, but it's too better than 790p. +[384.66 --> 386.46] Why didn't you go with 790p? +[386.56 --> 387.82] Why not 793p? +[387.82 --> 389.44] The highest they could possibly get +[389.44 --> 391.08] where it sits stable at 30fps. +[391.16 --> 391.84] I bet you that was it. +[392.00 --> 393.62] It runs at 30 frames per second +[393.62 --> 395.32] on both consoles. +[396.04 --> 398.84] And basically what Ubisoft had to say +[398.84 --> 400.52] is while some new gen games +[400.52 --> 401.82] now offer native 1080p, +[402.76 --> 403.98] it was much more important +[403.98 --> 406.40] to deliver an amazing next gen experience +[406.40 --> 407.96] than to push a few more pixels +[407.96 --> 408.80] onto the screen. +[408.80 --> 409.52] And this is a quote. +[410.08 --> 411.52] Resolution is a number +[411.52 --> 413.54] just like frame rate is a number. +[413.54 --> 423.38] Oh no. +[423.60 --> 425.20] Resolution is not just a number. +[425.64 --> 427.60] Resolution is one part +[427.60 --> 429.34] of the overall visual fidelity, +[429.72 --> 431.02] but that assumes +[431.02 --> 432.32] that the resolution +[432.32 --> 435.44] is at a reasonable enough level +[435.44 --> 437.82] that it's not detracting +[437.82 --> 438.76] from the experience. +[438.76 --> 441.16] Experience is a word. +[442.80 --> 444.66] Just like how gameplay is a word. +[450.26 --> 451.50] How did I ever do this show +[451.50 --> 451.96] without you? +[453.76 --> 455.46] Oh right, less expensively. +[457.38 --> 458.76] You don't pay me for the whole show. +[459.00 --> 460.16] And actually at the beginning +[460.16 --> 460.92] when I first came on +[460.92 --> 461.86] you didn't pay me for the show +[461.86 --> 464.62] at all for like a year and a half +[464.62 --> 465.12] or something. +[465.62 --> 467.66] I don't think it was a year and a half. +[467.66 --> 468.14] No. +[468.38 --> 469.48] I don't know when it was. +[469.56 --> 471.84] It was a year and two months. +[471.86 --> 473.52] I think that a year +[473.52 --> 475.42] is just a period of time. +[479.90 --> 480.78] Oh no. +[481.46 --> 482.46] Oh man. +[483.44 --> 485.38] So, okay guys. +[485.54 --> 486.96] This is the problem with this. +[487.06 --> 488.46] Okay, look at it this way. +[488.64 --> 490.04] When you're playing a game +[490.04 --> 491.38] like Battlefield 4 +[491.38 --> 493.04] where it's available on the PC, +[493.04 --> 495.04] it's available on the PlayStation 4, +[495.18 --> 496.88] it's available on the Xbox 360, +[496.88 --> 498.34] it's available on all these platforms, +[498.54 --> 499.94] that gives you an opportunity +[499.94 --> 502.96] to evaluate the importance +[502.96 --> 505.44] of gaming hardware. +[505.84 --> 506.48] And you know what? +[506.56 --> 507.58] I think when you and I +[507.58 --> 508.70] were doing our evaluation +[508.70 --> 510.68] with the next gen versus last gen +[510.68 --> 511.92] versus entry level PC, +[512.44 --> 513.44] we pretty much agreed. +[513.62 --> 514.98] PlayStation 4, you know what? +[515.04 --> 516.04] Not a bad value. +[516.22 --> 516.32] Yeah. +[516.66 --> 517.54] The difference, +[518.06 --> 519.84] this was Assassin's Creed at the time +[519.84 --> 521.36] and that was running at 900p +[521.36 --> 522.24] at the time, wasn't it? +[522.24 --> 523.90] I think so. +[523.98 --> 524.96] It was something like that. +[525.02 --> 525.60] I can look it up. +[525.64 --> 527.30] It was 720p on, +[527.30 --> 529.28] it was 720p on Xbox One for sure. +[529.28 --> 529.66] On Xbox One, yeah. +[529.80 --> 531.48] And I think we could agree, +[531.78 --> 533.22] and just jump in +[533.22 --> 533.92] if I'm saying things +[533.92 --> 534.74] that are totally unfair, +[534.86 --> 535.90] but I think we could agree +[535.90 --> 537.52] that PlayStation 4 +[537.52 --> 539.42] looked a hell of a lot closer +[539.42 --> 540.58] to the entry level PC. +[540.76 --> 541.90] Like basically... +[541.90 --> 542.60] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[542.64 --> 543.76] Sitting a distance away from... +[543.76 --> 545.38] But the Xbox One experience, +[545.56 --> 547.64] because the resolution was so low, +[548.08 --> 549.30] even though maybe they're running +[549.30 --> 550.56] similar detail levels +[550.56 --> 551.46] and they've got the same +[551.46 --> 552.28] physics simulations +[552.28 --> 553.64] and all that gameplay stuff +[553.64 --> 554.76] that is really important, +[555.10 --> 556.68] the resolution was so low +[556.68 --> 559.36] that it detracted from the experience. +[559.48 --> 561.08] It was very noticeable. +[561.60 --> 563.80] It was obvious +[563.80 --> 565.02] and your eyes kind of went, +[565.18 --> 566.64] oh, like crap. +[566.80 --> 567.58] Like this would look good +[567.58 --> 568.58] if it wasn't for... +[568.58 --> 568.78] Ugh. +[569.20 --> 569.36] Yeah. +[569.72 --> 571.48] People are saying 1080p now, +[571.60 --> 572.24] but I think there was an update. +[572.24 --> 573.26] It is 1080p now. +[573.36 --> 574.14] I think there was an update. +[574.32 --> 574.46] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[575.04 --> 576.06] No, there was an update. +[576.06 --> 577.76] So the point is that +[577.76 --> 579.78] up to a certain point, +[580.20 --> 581.54] resolution's just a number. +[582.00 --> 584.20] And when your TV is gonna be, +[584.32 --> 585.76] you know, 20 feet away from you +[585.76 --> 586.78] or something like that, +[587.16 --> 588.84] 1080p versus 4K, +[589.02 --> 590.76] you may not even be able to tell. +[590.82 --> 591.72] Depending on the screen size +[591.72 --> 592.20] and stuff too. +[592.22 --> 593.24] Depending on screen size, +[593.34 --> 594.14] depending on distance, +[594.30 --> 595.22] depending on content. +[595.38 --> 595.54] Yeah. +[595.72 --> 599.82] But 1080p versus 360p, +[600.40 --> 601.46] you'd be able to tell. +[601.66 --> 601.90] Yeah. +[601.96 --> 603.76] And then like 1080p versus like, +[604.02 --> 604.34] you know, +[604.34 --> 605.52] whatever the lowest one, +[605.52 --> 606.70] like is it like 144 +[606.70 --> 607.88] or like whatever, +[608.46 --> 610.94] like lowest vertical line resolution, +[611.18 --> 613.26] is gonna be distracting +[613.26 --> 614.56] and terrible. +[615.06 --> 615.50] And I, +[615.84 --> 617.06] in my mind, +[617.38 --> 618.82] 792p, +[618.98 --> 620.22] for something that we're gonna call +[620.22 --> 621.72] a next-gen gaming experience, +[622.30 --> 624.78] I understand what they're doing, +[625.00 --> 626.88] but it's a totally unacceptable +[626.88 --> 629.02] gaming experience in my mind. +[629.12 --> 629.60] But, +[630.30 --> 632.22] I don't blame Ubisoft for this +[632.22 --> 633.28] at all. +[633.32 --> 634.26] Nope, not their fault. +[634.26 --> 635.26] In fact, +[635.76 --> 636.56] Ubisoft, +[637.26 --> 638.32] I'm gonna do this. +[640.12 --> 640.64] You know why? +[640.64 --> 641.46] They pushed the experience +[641.46 --> 642.34] that they needed to push. +[642.64 --> 643.18] That's right. +[643.60 --> 644.70] And on the platforms +[644.70 --> 645.94] that can do it, +[646.16 --> 646.88] they're gonna deliver +[646.88 --> 647.48] that experience. +[647.78 --> 649.02] They had the balls +[649.02 --> 649.70] to say, +[650.00 --> 650.30] look, +[650.40 --> 651.94] we're gonna make an awesome game +[651.94 --> 653.06] that looks fantastic +[653.06 --> 655.02] and has a bunch of really cool features. +[655.32 --> 655.82] And it does. +[655.90 --> 656.58] And you know what? +[657.02 --> 658.00] If people don't buy +[658.00 --> 658.76] the right hardware, +[659.72 --> 660.26] fine. +[661.06 --> 661.84] Then they're gonna get +[661.84 --> 662.70] a lesser experience +[662.70 --> 663.04] and like, +[663.12 --> 663.62] we're sorry, +[664.02 --> 664.40] but like, +[664.46 --> 665.50] we did our best, man. +[665.74 --> 666.60] We did our best +[666.60 --> 668.24] and deal with it. +[668.44 --> 668.72] Honestly, +[668.88 --> 670.02] the stuff Ubisoft's been +[670.02 --> 670.72] pushing out lately +[670.72 --> 671.38] has been really cool. +[671.46 --> 672.16] Other than Uplay, +[672.24 --> 673.48] Uplay's terrible. +[673.64 --> 674.44] Yeah, Uplay is terrible. +[674.44 --> 675.60] You're really bad. +[676.06 --> 676.44] But like, +[676.54 --> 677.16] the games have been +[677.16 --> 677.56] This live stream +[677.56 --> 678.56] brought to you by Ubisoft. +[678.62 --> 679.16] Uplay's terrible. +[679.28 --> 679.64] Oh, wait, +[679.70 --> 679.96] hold on. +[680.24 --> 681.20] Nope, nope, nope, nope. +[681.86 --> 683.00] One actually fairly +[683.00 --> 683.62] interesting thing +[683.62 --> 684.84] is Mario Kart 8 +[684.84 --> 685.64] on Wii U +[685.64 --> 686.20] is gonna be +[686.20 --> 686.78] 1080p, +[686.86 --> 687.24] 60 FPS. +[687.24 --> 687.72] Hold on, hold on. +[687.76 --> 688.22] This is great. +[688.48 --> 688.94] This guy's like, +[689.10 --> 690.24] Linus is such a suck-up +[690.24 --> 690.80] sometimes. +[691.12 --> 691.38] And then, +[691.54 --> 692.48] he probably hasn't seen +[692.48 --> 693.32] the part of the stream yet. +[693.32 --> 694.16] Uplay is terrible. +[694.26 --> 695.68] Yeah, Uplay is awful. +[696.30 --> 697.12] Really bad. +[697.14 --> 698.14] Yeah, Uplay is awful. +[698.16 --> 699.54] Very possibly the worst one. +[699.60 --> 701.12] What I think Ubisoft should do +[701.12 --> 702.74] is they should just like, +[703.06 --> 704.68] make a deal with Valve +[704.68 --> 705.92] where they can have +[705.92 --> 707.24] their own Uplay, +[707.44 --> 708.22] but they can just +[708.22 --> 708.78] skin Steam. +[709.00 --> 709.96] A section on Steam? +[710.14 --> 710.32] Yeah. +[710.36 --> 711.22] Like, there's the Uplay +[711.22 --> 712.18] section on Steam? +[712.18 --> 713.30] No, Valve should just +[713.30 --> 714.34] sell them a license +[714.34 --> 714.98] for Steam. +[716.06 --> 717.00] No way. +[717.10 --> 718.18] That would be so good. +[718.20 --> 718.98] That would be awesome. +[719.10 --> 719.76] That would be awesome. +[719.94 --> 720.88] If anyone from Valve +[720.88 --> 721.42] is watching, +[721.62 --> 722.18] please, +[722.46 --> 723.30] rescue them. +[723.64 --> 723.98] Let's do it. +[724.02 --> 725.14] You know that they need +[725.14 --> 726.20] to have their own thing +[726.20 --> 727.14] so they can feel like +[727.14 --> 727.74] big boys. +[727.98 --> 729.16] Like, they have their +[729.16 --> 730.76] online content distribution +[730.76 --> 731.12] thing. +[731.56 --> 732.54] Let them build their own, +[732.54 --> 733.42] You can still make money +[733.42 --> 733.64] off of it. +[733.64 --> 734.44] Yeah, you can still +[734.44 --> 735.28] make money off of it +[735.28 --> 735.70] this way. +[735.94 --> 736.98] Just let them license it +[736.98 --> 737.96] so they can feel like +[737.96 --> 739.06] they're doing their own thing. +[740.26 --> 741.00] Everyone's a winner. +[741.44 --> 741.80] Everybody. +[742.26 --> 742.94] Everyone's a winner +[742.94 --> 744.70] because it's so much +[744.70 --> 745.48] better than Origin +[745.48 --> 746.08] and Uplay. +[746.50 --> 746.78] And then, +[746.84 --> 747.68] and then maybe part +[747.68 --> 749.14] of the license contract +[749.14 --> 750.56] can be that +[750.56 --> 751.80] browser-based, +[751.94 --> 752.34] what's that, +[752.46 --> 753.04] Battlelog? +[753.04 --> 754.56] Battlelog has to go away. +[754.92 --> 755.36] Yes. +[755.52 --> 756.98] Oh, man. +[757.04 --> 758.34] I would be so happy. +[758.56 --> 759.96] Valve can rescue us all. +[760.46 --> 761.24] Valve can literally +[761.24 --> 762.50] save the whole universe. +[762.56 --> 762.90] Okay, I'm sorry. +[762.94 --> 763.52] You were talking about +[763.52 --> 764.64] Mario Kart and how +[764.64 --> 766.42] Nintendo is going to be +[766.42 --> 766.70] delivered. +[767.10 --> 767.54] Nintendo, +[767.92 --> 768.96] Mario Kart 8 +[768.96 --> 769.76] on Wii U. +[769.76 --> 770.48] 1080p, +[770.62 --> 771.34] 60fps, +[771.54 --> 772.54] including split-screen +[772.54 --> 773.02] multiplayer. +[773.56 --> 774.28] They're just like, +[774.40 --> 774.66] nope, +[774.90 --> 775.56] it needs to be +[775.56 --> 776.28] in this experience. +[776.38 --> 777.56] And it looks really good +[777.56 --> 778.50] and it has new features +[778.50 --> 779.18] and all this kind of stuff +[779.18 --> 779.58] and boom, +[779.76 --> 779.86] done. +[779.86 --> 780.46] I mean, +[780.52 --> 781.98] part of Nintendo's thing, +[782.42 --> 783.64] I think they benefit +[783.64 --> 784.42] from resolution +[784.42 --> 786.36] more than other guys +[786.36 --> 788.60] because their graphical style, +[788.68 --> 789.46] it's kind of like Blizzard +[789.46 --> 791.22] where they're just like, +[791.38 --> 791.66] okay, +[791.78 --> 793.04] we're going to make stuff +[793.04 --> 794.42] that's really easy to run +[794.42 --> 795.50] and then we're going to +[795.50 --> 797.36] call that a graphical style. +[797.70 --> 797.80] Yeah, +[797.82 --> 798.80] but it looks really good. +[798.84 --> 799.42] But it works. +[799.56 --> 799.70] Yeah. +[799.82 --> 801.24] That cartoony style works. +[802.12 --> 802.66] I mean, +[802.68 --> 803.58] that's not going to help +[803.58 --> 806.42] Nintendo stop losing money. +[806.66 --> 806.80] No. +[806.80 --> 808.46] And it's not going to help +[808.46 --> 809.54] Watch Dogs in any way. +[809.74 --> 809.96] No, +[810.20 --> 810.84] because Watch Dogs +[810.84 --> 811.82] is not a cartoony style. +[811.84 --> 812.08] That's great. +[812.14 --> 812.90] Who's this on Twitch? +[815.68 --> 816.16] Adalvalant. +[816.42 --> 818.32] Battlelog is so much fun. +[818.42 --> 818.52] Yeah, +[818.54 --> 819.92] it's basically its own game. +[820.38 --> 821.14] The game is... +[821.14 --> 821.94] Can you make it work? +[821.96 --> 822.92] Press the button +[822.92 --> 824.60] and find out if it works. +[824.78 --> 826.02] It's like playing slots, +[826.24 --> 826.60] you know? +[828.82 --> 829.88] Every time someone +[829.88 --> 830.80] wants to play Battlefield +[830.80 --> 831.44] with me, +[831.48 --> 832.20] I'm like, +[832.42 --> 833.10] let's see +[833.10 --> 834.68] because I don't know. +[835.04 --> 835.88] And half the time +[835.88 --> 836.24] it's like, +[836.34 --> 836.56] nope, +[836.56 --> 837.20] can't play. +[837.30 --> 837.52] Okay, +[837.64 --> 838.04] good luck. +[838.14 --> 838.54] Have fun. +[839.30 --> 839.62] Oh, +[839.80 --> 840.50] fantastic. +[840.70 --> 841.32] Someone wants to know +[841.32 --> 842.52] what are the aftermarket buds +[842.52 --> 843.48] on my IE80s? +[843.64 --> 844.02] Nothing. +[844.28 --> 846.04] These are just stock IE80s +[846.04 --> 846.58] and I love them. +[846.66 --> 847.06] They're amazing. +[847.34 --> 847.88] They're my favorite. +[847.98 --> 849.16] They're my favorite earphones ever. +[850.24 --> 851.28] Not because Sennheiser +[851.28 --> 852.16] paid me to say that. +[852.22 --> 852.56] In fact, +[852.62 --> 853.86] my relationship with Sennheiser +[853.86 --> 855.90] has been very rocky at times, +[855.90 --> 857.48] but I definitely do love +[857.48 --> 858.02] their products. +[858.42 --> 859.30] What are those tips +[859.30 --> 860.10] that we used to use? +[860.34 --> 860.70] Comply. +[860.90 --> 861.10] Yeah, +[861.20 --> 861.76] those were nice. +[861.86 --> 863.04] Comply actually reached out. +[863.12 --> 864.06] They want us to do a review. +[864.58 --> 865.50] And I was just kind of like, +[865.58 --> 866.50] how do you do a review? +[866.50 --> 867.32] A review of a piece of foam +[867.32 --> 868.32] that goes on the end of it. +[868.54 --> 868.78] Yeah. +[869.06 --> 870.60] We could do like a 30 second review. +[870.68 --> 871.32] We could do a review +[871.32 --> 872.02] of just the tip, +[872.08 --> 872.34] I guess. +[874.24 --> 875.56] We don't want the whole thing. +[875.62 --> 876.08] They're good, +[876.24 --> 877.20] but they break down +[877.20 --> 878.38] and then you have to buy new ones +[878.38 --> 879.24] and it gets expensive. +[879.24 --> 879.64] Yeah. +[879.64 --> 880.12] When you're done. +[880.12 --> 880.66] I mean, +[880.74 --> 882.38] Edsel buys them, +[882.50 --> 883.64] but my whole thing was +[883.64 --> 884.74] I don't want to get hooked +[884.74 --> 887.00] because I cannot, +[887.76 --> 888.12] okay, +[888.54 --> 889.64] I can afford +[889.64 --> 891.50] to buy foam tips, +[891.78 --> 893.80] but I would feel stupid. +[894.22 --> 894.42] Yeah. +[894.78 --> 895.26] Yeah. +[895.40 --> 896.12] It's not like +[896.12 --> 897.84] that much money, +[898.00 --> 898.70] but it just seems like +[898.70 --> 899.18] an investment +[899.18 --> 899.76] where you're like, +[899.88 --> 900.30] wow, +[900.60 --> 902.08] do I really need to do this? +[902.08 --> 904.10] I'm locking into this commitment, +[904.10 --> 905.66] but you know what? +[905.76 --> 907.06] In the grand scheme of things, +[907.06 --> 908.34] they do sound better +[908.34 --> 910.10] and they are way more comfortable. +[910.40 --> 910.86] They're way more comfortable. +[911.08 --> 911.76] If they had like +[911.76 --> 913.16] a subscription service, +[913.22 --> 914.30] as stupid as this sounds. +[914.30 --> 915.36] They should have one though. +[915.36 --> 915.98] They should have one. +[916.64 --> 918.16] Soylent has a subscription service. +[918.22 --> 918.38] Yeah. +[918.44 --> 918.60] Like, +[918.70 --> 918.86] well, +[918.94 --> 919.24] I mean, +[919.24 --> 920.02] one of our sponsors, +[920.18 --> 920.80] Dollar Shave Club. +[921.00 --> 921.12] Like, +[921.96 --> 922.88] if you told, +[922.98 --> 923.84] if Dollar Shave Club +[923.84 --> 924.36] came to us +[924.36 --> 924.72] and they're like, +[924.82 --> 925.04] yeah, +[925.34 --> 926.62] we have this great idea. +[926.82 --> 928.22] You're going to buy razors online. +[928.66 --> 929.26] I'd be like, +[929.48 --> 929.78] wow, +[929.92 --> 930.48] you're an idiot. +[930.70 --> 931.70] That's a terrible idea. +[931.72 --> 932.72] That's a terrible idea. +[932.72 --> 934.42] But the whole subscription model +[934.42 --> 936.12] makes it actually work really well +[936.12 --> 937.58] because you're committing +[937.58 --> 939.14] a small amount of money +[939.14 --> 941.32] spread out over a long period of time +[941.32 --> 942.58] and then you don't have to think about it +[942.58 --> 943.08] because to me, +[943.16 --> 943.98] it's really about the hassle. +[944.40 --> 945.10] I'll tell you what, +[945.40 --> 947.08] if anyone from Comply is watching, +[947.40 --> 948.86] if you guys figure out +[948.86 --> 949.86] a subscription model +[949.86 --> 950.52] where like, +[950.52 --> 952.04] I just get a new set of tips +[952.04 --> 952.72] once a quarter +[952.72 --> 953.78] or something like that +[953.78 --> 954.96] and it's inexpensive +[954.96 --> 955.86] and like, +[955.88 --> 956.48] I get a discount +[956.48 --> 957.38] for being like, +[957.56 --> 958.30] part of the club. +[958.46 --> 959.00] Kind of like what, +[959.08 --> 959.28] again, +[959.34 --> 960.12] one of our other sponsors, +[960.24 --> 960.72] Five4, +[960.90 --> 962.26] where they take their store +[962.26 --> 963.46] and they basically go, +[963.56 --> 963.64] okay, +[963.68 --> 963.92] look, +[963.98 --> 965.08] you sign up for the subscription +[965.08 --> 966.92] and you have half price +[966.92 --> 967.96] off of MSRP +[967.96 --> 969.58] and we send it to you once a month. +[969.66 --> 969.78] Like, +[969.84 --> 970.80] if Comply figures out +[970.80 --> 971.66] something like that +[971.66 --> 973.74] where they get the commitment from me +[973.74 --> 975.04] so they can rely on the business +[975.04 --> 976.36] and I get a discount +[976.36 --> 977.28] and the convenience, +[977.90 --> 978.74] I will commit +[978.74 --> 980.28] and I will start using Comply tips. +[980.28 --> 981.00] That's my deal. +[981.00 --> 982.10] Soylent recently came out +[982.10 --> 982.60] of their like, +[982.72 --> 983.26] beta phase +[983.26 --> 984.44] and they're now selling normally. +[984.84 --> 985.70] Beta food. +[985.86 --> 986.32] I know. +[986.44 --> 987.82] With the way beta tests go, +[987.92 --> 988.28] like... +[988.84 --> 989.20] Well, +[989.26 --> 990.90] they have FCC approved, +[991.14 --> 992.00] even though that's still +[992.00 --> 992.70] kind of sketchy, +[992.76 --> 993.32] but they do have +[993.32 --> 994.28] a nutritional label now +[994.28 --> 994.92] and all that kind of stuff, +[994.98 --> 995.50] so that's kind of good. +[995.56 --> 997.30] They have a nutritional label. +[998.14 --> 999.30] But nutritional labels +[999.30 --> 1000.02] are just numbers. +[1000.02 --> 1003.76] This is not going to end +[1003.76 --> 1004.06] like, +[1004.16 --> 1004.48] ever. +[1006.58 --> 1007.68] We need a t-shirt. +[1008.30 --> 1009.50] Resolution is just a number. +[1009.74 --> 1010.60] And then it should be all like, +[1010.66 --> 1011.90] pixelated and shitty looking. +[1012.46 --> 1012.82] Yeah, +[1012.98 --> 1014.38] that's actually not a bad idea. +[1014.70 --> 1015.04] Guys, +[1015.14 --> 1016.42] let us know if we need to do that. +[1016.48 --> 1016.86] You know what? +[1016.92 --> 1017.48] I'm going to, +[1017.48 --> 1017.92] I'm going to, +[1017.96 --> 1019.60] I'm going to just jump on this. +[1019.98 --> 1020.22] We, +[1020.30 --> 1021.72] we have to make that t-shirt. +[1022.22 --> 1022.72] Need a, +[1022.72 --> 1025.76] resolution is just a number t-shirt. +[1025.96 --> 1027.08] Resolution is just a number, +[1027.56 --> 1028.22] just like... +[1028.22 --> 1028.54] Yeah, +[1028.84 --> 1031.50] and the text should look crappy +[1031.50 --> 1032.34] and low res. +[1032.62 --> 1032.86] Okay, +[1032.94 --> 1034.20] I'm sending that to Edsel. +[1034.28 --> 1035.26] I'm trying to think of some way +[1035.26 --> 1036.00] that you can include +[1036.00 --> 1037.62] just like FPS is just a number. +[1037.98 --> 1038.24] It's, +[1038.24 --> 1039.02] it'll be too long. +[1039.08 --> 1039.62] It would be too, +[1039.62 --> 1040.84] it would be too long for one. +[1040.84 --> 1041.20] Too long. +[1041.26 --> 1041.70] And then for two, +[1041.78 --> 1042.78] the only way that I can think of +[1042.78 --> 1043.88] that you could style it properly +[1043.88 --> 1045.50] would be like lagging the word, +[1045.64 --> 1046.22] the letters out. +[1046.34 --> 1046.52] Yeah. +[1046.52 --> 1047.42] And that would just look really weird. +[1047.44 --> 1047.70] Yeah. +[1047.90 --> 1048.28] And like, +[1048.34 --> 1049.42] if you want the words +[1049.42 --> 1050.56] to be low res enough +[1050.56 --> 1051.66] to kind of get the joke, +[1051.76 --> 1052.70] it's going to have to be pretty big. +[1052.72 --> 1053.46] They'll take up space +[1053.46 --> 1054.68] so you can actually read it and stuff. +[1054.76 --> 1054.96] So yeah, +[1055.04 --> 1056.54] resolution is just a number t-shirt. +[1056.66 --> 1056.94] We're going to, +[1056.98 --> 1057.62] we're going to get on that, +[1057.66 --> 1057.98] you guys. +[1058.26 --> 1058.48] Yeah. +[1058.68 --> 1060.64] I'm sorry our t-shirt supply chain +[1060.64 --> 1061.32] takes so long. +[1061.40 --> 1062.70] We're looking into some other options. +[1063.04 --> 1063.36] Um, +[1063.38 --> 1064.76] so stay tuned on that, +[1064.80 --> 1065.14] you guys. +[1065.28 --> 1065.50] Yeah. +[1066.10 --> 1066.46] But yeah, +[1066.46 --> 1067.00] so they, +[1067.00 --> 1068.82] they win subscription service recently +[1068.82 --> 1070.52] and I think that's really smart +[1070.52 --> 1071.42] because a big problem +[1071.42 --> 1072.26] with that whole thing. +[1072.34 --> 1072.48] Sorry, +[1072.54 --> 1073.70] we're back to talking about Soylent. +[1073.74 --> 1073.88] Yeah. +[1073.88 --> 1074.46] I've lost track. +[1074.60 --> 1075.88] I had to think about it for a second. +[1075.98 --> 1076.88] What is he talking about? +[1077.50 --> 1077.82] Uh, +[1077.90 --> 1078.04] yeah, +[1078.22 --> 1078.40] Soylent. +[1078.56 --> 1079.50] Subscription condoms? +[1080.12 --> 1081.18] That probably exists. +[1081.18 --> 1082.08] It probably does. +[1082.18 --> 1083.50] It would make you feel really, +[1083.50 --> 1084.58] like, +[1084.70 --> 1085.92] wouldn't it make you feel crappy +[1085.92 --> 1087.28] when you start to get a stockpile +[1087.28 --> 1087.68] and you'd be like, +[1087.78 --> 1087.96] oh, +[1088.04 --> 1088.20] I'm not doing. +[1088.20 --> 1088.74] Oh no. +[1090.04 --> 1091.34] I'm not doing very well here. +[1092.62 --> 1093.02] There's, +[1093.16 --> 1093.56] you know, +[1093.56 --> 1094.80] you know how I sometimes try and find, +[1094.92 --> 1094.98] like, +[1095.02 --> 1095.98] people that want to do pre-rolls +[1095.98 --> 1096.58] and stuff like that? +[1097.02 --> 1097.38] Um, +[1097.48 --> 1097.62] I, +[1097.76 --> 1098.98] I was watching a, +[1099.04 --> 1099.14] yeah, +[1099.18 --> 1099.94] this is going to go there. +[1100.24 --> 1100.56] Um, +[1100.56 --> 1102.56] I was watching an old archive +[1102.56 --> 1104.94] of one of the Young Turks videos +[1104.94 --> 1106.14] on some topic. +[1106.26 --> 1107.64] I don't even remember why I was watching it, +[1107.94 --> 1109.38] but their sponsor for the video +[1109.38 --> 1110.60] was some condom website. +[1110.60 --> 1111.94] And I thought about it +[1111.94 --> 1113.32] and I'd like written the email +[1113.32 --> 1113.80] being like, +[1113.84 --> 1114.78] maybe we should contact them +[1114.78 --> 1115.22] and I was like, +[1115.54 --> 1116.36] no. +[1116.78 --> 1117.28] Because I was like, +[1117.34 --> 1117.44] well, +[1117.48 --> 1118.30] our target audience +[1118.30 --> 1119.48] would be so big for them. +[1120.78 --> 1121.14] Wait, +[1121.20 --> 1122.42] because they all have large penises? +[1122.82 --> 1123.12] Well, +[1123.22 --> 1123.52] I mean, +[1123.86 --> 1124.70] you probably do, +[1124.80 --> 1124.88] but. +[1124.88 --> 1125.12] Yeah, +[1125.28 --> 1127.72] but I meant more the male side. +[1127.98 --> 1128.38] Yeah, +[1128.84 --> 1129.68] we should totally do it. +[1129.70 --> 1130.02] Why not? +[1130.34 --> 1130.78] I did, +[1130.84 --> 1131.92] I wasn't a huge fan of the website. +[1132.08 --> 1132.28] Oh, +[1132.32 --> 1132.50] okay. +[1132.50 --> 1133.94] If it was like a better service +[1133.94 --> 1134.94] or a better website, +[1135.06 --> 1135.72] then I probably would have +[1135.72 --> 1136.46] actually sent the email, +[1136.60 --> 1137.00] but it was, +[1137.20 --> 1138.08] okay. +[1138.08 --> 1138.20] Okay. +[1138.20 --> 1138.56] Okay. +[1138.68 --> 1138.86] Yeah. +[1138.86 --> 1139.74] Because if we can find, +[1139.84 --> 1140.12] I guess, +[1140.46 --> 1140.66] well, +[1140.70 --> 1141.46] there's the challenge. +[1141.46 --> 1143.66] If we can find a not sketch. +[1144.12 --> 1144.38] Yeah. +[1145.00 --> 1146.30] Online condom seller. +[1146.56 --> 1146.84] Well, +[1146.94 --> 1149.10] like Durex wouldn't be sketch, +[1149.24 --> 1150.32] but then it would have to be +[1150.32 --> 1151.42] like a subscription service +[1151.42 --> 1152.46] to them or whatever. +[1152.54 --> 1152.94] Yeah. +[1153.08 --> 1153.54] And like, +[1153.54 --> 1154.48] I don't know if that's going to work, +[1154.54 --> 1155.16] but anyways, +[1155.36 --> 1156.74] back to Soylent again. +[1157.10 --> 1157.32] Yes. +[1157.32 --> 1157.62] Um, +[1157.62 --> 1159.00] my biggest problem with it +[1159.00 --> 1160.24] is like the second you run out, +[1160.32 --> 1160.60] you're like, +[1160.72 --> 1161.08] okay, +[1161.16 --> 1161.28] well, +[1161.28 --> 1161.88] I'm going to have to wait +[1161.88 --> 1162.84] two weeks or something +[1162.84 --> 1164.02] until I get more. +[1164.34 --> 1164.62] Right. +[1164.62 --> 1166.12] Time to not be using this +[1166.12 --> 1166.52] for a while. +[1166.62 --> 1166.78] Right. +[1166.82 --> 1167.60] Because then you can't, +[1167.72 --> 1169.74] you can never be on cycle properly. +[1169.86 --> 1171.22] Can you ever actually test it? +[1171.42 --> 1171.58] Yeah, +[1171.64 --> 1172.02] exactly. +[1172.14 --> 1173.60] So now they actually have +[1173.60 --> 1174.86] a subscription thing. +[1174.92 --> 1175.66] You can sign up for a month +[1175.66 --> 1176.42] or whatever weeks, +[1176.44 --> 1176.88] or I don't know. +[1176.88 --> 1178.16] I didn't really look that far into it, +[1178.22 --> 1179.00] but you can get a subscription +[1179.00 --> 1179.56] and they're like, +[1179.62 --> 1179.72] yeah, +[1179.72 --> 1180.64] it'll show up a little bit +[1180.64 --> 1181.64] before the end +[1181.64 --> 1183.04] because it's not that big of a deal +[1183.04 --> 1183.96] because this stuff lasts +[1183.96 --> 1185.10] for like years +[1185.10 --> 1186.08] before it expires. +[1186.26 --> 1187.44] So it'll show up +[1187.44 --> 1188.02] before you're out +[1188.02 --> 1188.70] and you're good. +[1189.18 --> 1189.38] It's like, +[1189.40 --> 1189.58] okay, +[1189.66 --> 1189.84] cool. +[1190.12 --> 1191.12] And then if you listen +[1191.12 --> 1192.24] to everything he just said +[1192.24 --> 1192.84] and you imagine +[1192.84 --> 1194.00] he's talking about condoms, +[1194.68 --> 1196.34] that works too. +[1196.60 --> 1197.00] Actually, +[1197.10 --> 1198.24] all of that would have been accurate, +[1198.36 --> 1198.56] wouldn't it? +[1198.56 --> 1198.72] Yep. +[1199.40 --> 1200.52] I was paying attention. +[1201.70 --> 1202.10] Awesome. +[1202.90 --> 1203.42] I mean, +[1203.42 --> 1204.88] whenever we're talking about condoms, +[1204.94 --> 1206.00] I'm definitely paying attention. +[1207.52 --> 1208.16] All right. +[1208.40 --> 1209.90] So this is a topic. +[1210.16 --> 1211.74] S-S-O-E-L-E. +[1212.12 --> 1212.52] Dude, +[1212.72 --> 1212.86] we're, +[1212.98 --> 1213.46] you know what? +[1213.82 --> 1214.70] Normally we don't, +[1214.70 --> 1215.18] we don't, +[1215.30 --> 1215.62] no. +[1215.92 --> 1216.90] Normally we don't change +[1216.90 --> 1218.14] people's names on the forum, +[1218.26 --> 1219.16] like it's kind of against +[1219.16 --> 1219.96] forum policy, +[1220.30 --> 1220.84] but if, +[1221.04 --> 1222.40] if he or she +[1222.40 --> 1224.28] ever wants to message me +[1224.28 --> 1225.86] and get a name change, +[1225.98 --> 1227.42] we will take care of that for you +[1227.42 --> 1228.96] so that I can pronounce your name +[1228.96 --> 1230.18] when you post things +[1230.18 --> 1231.32] that are helpful like this. +[1231.48 --> 1232.20] S-S-S-O-E-L-E. +[1232.20 --> 1232.64] Whatever. +[1234.04 --> 1234.26] Anyway, +[1234.50 --> 1235.20] the point is, +[1235.50 --> 1235.96] excuse me, +[1236.16 --> 1236.92] the point is that +[1236.92 --> 1237.74] Knock2Up +[1237.74 --> 1239.42] has released +[1239.42 --> 1240.80] Penis Size is Just a Number +[1240.80 --> 1243.12] and the entire +[1243.12 --> 1243.84] Twitch chat +[1243.84 --> 1244.52] exploded. +[1247.72 --> 1248.60] Oh my god, +[1248.64 --> 1249.28] that's awesome. +[1249.50 --> 1250.34] Maybe we should have +[1250.34 --> 1251.26] a low-res penis +[1251.26 --> 1252.26] on the Resolution +[1252.26 --> 1253.34] is Just a Number shirt. +[1254.38 --> 1254.78] Well, +[1254.80 --> 1255.52] it's like small enough +[1255.52 --> 1256.28] that you can't really +[1256.28 --> 1257.02] make out what it is. +[1257.08 --> 1257.20] Yeah, +[1257.26 --> 1257.40] yeah, +[1257.40 --> 1258.18] like a low-res +[1258.18 --> 1258.86] cock and balls +[1258.86 --> 1259.84] like right under the, +[1260.08 --> 1261.50] in the corner or something. +[1261.62 --> 1262.24] So it just looks like +[1262.24 --> 1262.88] an underline or something? +[1262.88 --> 1263.04] Yeah, +[1263.06 --> 1263.68] so it's just like +[1263.68 --> 1264.46] four squares, +[1264.64 --> 1264.88] right? +[1265.64 --> 1266.12] Oh, +[1266.22 --> 1266.38] yeah, +[1266.38 --> 1266.62] yeah, +[1266.62 --> 1266.86] yeah, +[1266.86 --> 1266.98] yeah, +[1266.98 --> 1267.46] yeah, +[1267.46 --> 1267.62] yeah, +[1267.62 --> 1268.30] there you go. +[1268.38 --> 1268.90] Oh, +[1269.08 --> 1269.52] terrible. +[1269.52 --> 1269.54] Oh, +[1269.54 --> 1270.12] that's awesome. +[1270.62 --> 1270.76] You know, +[1270.78 --> 1271.72] I don't think I've ever +[1271.72 --> 1272.56] used that word +[1272.56 --> 1273.32] on the stream before. +[1273.32 --> 1273.62] Nope, +[1273.66 --> 1274.46] probably not. +[1274.66 --> 1275.40] Probably shouldn't. +[1275.74 --> 1275.98] Alright, +[1276.16 --> 1276.98] so Knock2Up +[1276.98 --> 1278.74] has new fans coming, +[1278.88 --> 1279.38] you guys. +[1279.52 --> 1281.54] This is pretty freaking exciting. +[1281.90 --> 1283.58] New fans in new colors. +[1284.00 --> 1284.44] Although, +[1284.92 --> 1285.80] the way the internet +[1285.80 --> 1287.60] exploded about this news +[1287.60 --> 1289.62] kind of made me feel like +[1289.62 --> 1290.60] they didn't really watch +[1290.60 --> 1291.76] our Computex coverage +[1291.76 --> 1292.50] from last year. +[1292.80 --> 1293.04] Like, +[1293.18 --> 1294.42] one year ago, +[1294.60 --> 1296.00] we broke this news, +[1296.30 --> 1297.90] showed off all these fans. +[1300.66 --> 1302.28] And it takes Knock2Up a year. +[1302.32 --> 1303.16] This is what I like +[1303.16 --> 1303.84] about Knock2Up. +[1304.14 --> 1305.30] They don't seem to care +[1305.30 --> 1306.12] about making money. +[1306.52 --> 1306.76] Nope. +[1307.16 --> 1308.10] They just don't. +[1308.52 --> 1308.96] They just, +[1309.32 --> 1309.56] like, +[1309.84 --> 1310.94] so many, +[1311.06 --> 1312.68] so many fan companies +[1312.68 --> 1313.68] or cooler makers, +[1313.86 --> 1314.34] you look at them +[1314.34 --> 1315.00] and you just kind of go, +[1315.08 --> 1315.42] you know, +[1315.42 --> 1317.12] I wish they would just +[1317.12 --> 1318.62] give up their precious money +[1318.62 --> 1320.46] and spend a bunch of money +[1320.46 --> 1321.02] making, like, +[1321.10 --> 1322.88] a really great quality fan. +[1322.98 --> 1323.42] Which they'd probably +[1323.42 --> 1324.34] make a lot of money out of. +[1324.46 --> 1324.72] Which, +[1324.96 --> 1325.24] well, +[1325.34 --> 1325.54] no, +[1325.64 --> 1326.32] I don't think so +[1326.32 --> 1326.80] because, +[1327.28 --> 1327.82] like, +[1327.92 --> 1328.82] you look at how much +[1328.82 --> 1329.44] Knock2Up spends +[1329.44 --> 1330.12] on the packaging, +[1330.46 --> 1330.72] you know, +[1330.78 --> 1331.34] to make sure that, +[1331.34 --> 1332.66] and you can't have +[1332.66 --> 1333.42] a premium brand +[1333.42 --> 1334.52] without having good packaging. +[1334.70 --> 1335.58] I think this has been proven +[1335.58 --> 1336.34] time and time again. +[1336.46 --> 1337.48] I'm not criticizing them +[1337.48 --> 1338.14] for spending money +[1338.14 --> 1338.68] on packaging. +[1338.92 --> 1339.34] You have to. +[1339.76 --> 1340.28] So they've got +[1340.28 --> 1341.14] their premium packaging, +[1341.34 --> 1342.36] they've got actually +[1342.36 --> 1343.96] legitimately well-built products, +[1343.96 --> 1345.04] the amount of R&D, +[1345.10 --> 1345.24] I mean, +[1345.26 --> 1345.94] it took them a year +[1345.94 --> 1346.98] to get these to market. +[1347.58 --> 1348.52] I don't think that... +[1348.52 --> 1349.54] After they were working. +[1349.64 --> 1349.88] Yes. +[1350.12 --> 1350.32] Yeah. +[1350.42 --> 1351.38] I don't think their margin +[1351.38 --> 1352.06] is any better +[1352.06 --> 1353.12] than any other fan maker, +[1353.18 --> 1354.10] and if I had to guess, +[1354.14 --> 1354.64] I would guess +[1354.64 --> 1355.54] it's probably worse. +[1356.18 --> 1356.50] So, +[1357.10 --> 1357.34] like, +[1357.38 --> 1358.72] on a bomb cost basis, +[1358.86 --> 1358.98] like, +[1359.04 --> 1359.84] you look at what the other guys +[1359.84 --> 1360.58] can afford to spend +[1360.58 --> 1361.14] on marketing, +[1361.42 --> 1362.58] whereas we go to Knock2Up +[1362.58 --> 1362.96] and we're like, +[1363.06 --> 1363.28] hey, +[1363.74 --> 1364.06] you know, +[1364.16 --> 1365.14] we love your products, +[1365.40 --> 1366.32] you know, +[1366.36 --> 1367.54] we would have no problem +[1367.54 --> 1368.68] shilling the heck out of them +[1368.68 --> 1369.78] because we think they're great, +[1369.88 --> 1370.94] and they just kind of go, +[1370.94 --> 1371.38] like, +[1371.76 --> 1372.86] we don't really have +[1372.86 --> 1373.78] a marketing budget, +[1374.04 --> 1374.34] so, +[1375.08 --> 1375.42] yeah. +[1376.00 --> 1376.94] We thank you for loving +[1376.94 --> 1377.48] our products, +[1377.54 --> 1378.18] we'll send you as many +[1378.18 --> 1379.18] of our products as you want, +[1379.28 --> 1379.50] but... +[1379.50 --> 1380.54] Which is kind of awesome. +[1380.58 --> 1381.12] Which is great. +[1382.18 --> 1383.08] Which actually... +[1383.08 --> 1384.24] Use them all the time. +[1384.70 --> 1386.38] That was all we really wanted anyway. +[1386.54 --> 1386.82] Yeah. +[1387.46 --> 1387.82] But, +[1387.96 --> 1388.18] uh, +[1388.28 --> 1390.28] I don't remember +[1390.28 --> 1391.34] where I was going with this. +[1391.60 --> 1391.84] Right, +[1391.92 --> 1392.08] right, +[1392.14 --> 1392.32] right. +[1392.36 --> 1392.54] So, +[1392.62 --> 1393.78] I love that they just have +[1393.78 --> 1394.34] the balls +[1394.34 --> 1395.08] to have a product +[1395.08 --> 1396.02] that's pretty much ready +[1396.02 --> 1396.52] to rock, +[1396.60 --> 1397.38] like a year ago, +[1397.38 --> 1398.80] take a year to bring it out +[1398.80 --> 1399.70] because that's how long +[1399.70 --> 1400.88] it takes to get it perfect. +[1400.98 --> 1401.88] And I'm assuming it's perfect. +[1402.24 --> 1402.96] They are in the mail, +[1403.04 --> 1403.96] but we don't have them yet. +[1404.12 --> 1404.26] Yeah. +[1404.32 --> 1404.64] But anyway, +[1404.74 --> 1405.68] the Redux line +[1405.68 --> 1407.32] takes away some of the +[1407.32 --> 1408.12] little extras, +[1408.34 --> 1409.44] like rubber grommets, +[1409.82 --> 1410.72] and brings back +[1410.72 --> 1411.96] some of the older designs +[1411.96 --> 1413.18] that we haven't seen in a while, +[1413.30 --> 1414.52] like the older S12, +[1414.82 --> 1415.66] non-Redux, +[1416.04 --> 1417.40] and costs them down a little bit +[1417.40 --> 1418.66] to make Noctua quality +[1418.66 --> 1420.32] a little bit more affordable, +[1420.54 --> 1421.42] which I think is great, +[1421.62 --> 1421.80] but... +[1421.80 --> 1422.10] And then, +[1422.16 --> 1422.48] nope. +[1422.68 --> 1423.00] Oh, +[1423.08 --> 1423.78] these are the ones +[1423.78 --> 1424.78] that have my attention. +[1424.90 --> 1425.06] I mean, +[1425.06 --> 1426.92] we're talking $30 plus +[1426.92 --> 1427.70] a fan +[1427.70 --> 1429.86] for industrial-grade +[1429.86 --> 1430.96] Noctua fans, +[1431.04 --> 1431.94] and they're black, +[1432.26 --> 1432.88] and they just have +[1432.88 --> 1433.98] little brown accents, +[1434.34 --> 1434.72] which is cool. +[1434.72 --> 1435.56] And they have +[1435.56 --> 1436.32] all the way up to +[1436.32 --> 1439.48] IP67 water and dustproofness. +[1439.64 --> 1440.30] They're available +[1440.30 --> 1441.28] at a couple of different +[1441.28 --> 1442.16] RPM levels, +[1442.44 --> 1443.74] and holy balls, +[1443.90 --> 1444.78] these are exciting +[1444.78 --> 1445.58] because, +[1446.20 --> 1446.96] well, +[1447.34 --> 1447.86] that... +[1447.86 --> 1449.38] It's the only fan... +[1449.38 --> 1450.54] They look really sharp. +[1450.66 --> 1452.02] ...that really matters +[1452.02 --> 1453.18] if you want the... +[1453.18 --> 1453.78] And again, +[1453.78 --> 1454.86] I haven't even touched them yet, +[1455.02 --> 1456.52] but because of Noctua's reputation, +[1456.92 --> 1457.96] I'm comfortable saying +[1457.96 --> 1458.42] they're going to be +[1458.42 --> 1459.16] the only fan +[1459.16 --> 1460.14] in terms of the highest +[1460.14 --> 1461.30] possible quality +[1461.30 --> 1462.62] PC fan experience +[1462.62 --> 1463.20] that you're going to be +[1463.20 --> 1463.88] wanting to look at, +[1463.94 --> 1464.64] so... +[1464.64 --> 1466.44] And those rubber accents +[1466.44 --> 1466.94] on the end +[1466.94 --> 1467.20] can, +[1467.38 --> 1467.60] one, +[1467.70 --> 1468.50] probably be changed +[1468.50 --> 1469.82] in color pretty easily. +[1470.02 --> 1470.22] Yep. +[1470.78 --> 1471.48] And two, +[1471.58 --> 1472.14] they're removable, +[1472.40 --> 1473.58] so that'll be even more +[1473.58 --> 1474.44] easy to change the color. +[1474.90 --> 1475.16] Yep. +[1475.16 --> 1476.38] And they're the dark, +[1476.54 --> 1477.12] dark brown. +[1477.30 --> 1477.56] Yes. +[1477.62 --> 1478.32] Not the light brown +[1478.32 --> 1478.84] that a lot of people +[1478.84 --> 1479.78] complained about anyways. +[1479.86 --> 1480.02] Yeah. +[1480.10 --> 1481.48] I'm all right with the color. +[1481.60 --> 1481.64] Me too. +[1481.64 --> 1482.02] I don't mind it. +[1482.02 --> 1483.08] It's like a chocolate color +[1483.08 --> 1483.86] as opposed to like... +[1483.86 --> 1484.06] Yeah. +[1484.38 --> 1486.08] ...like a digestive problem color. +[1486.08 --> 1487.50] And if Asus stops making +[1487.50 --> 1488.38] golden motherboards, +[1489.00 --> 1491.10] maybe it'll be okay. +[1491.78 --> 1492.88] Asus's motherboards, +[1492.98 --> 1493.76] I'll have you know, +[1493.86 --> 1494.80] are the gold standard. +[1495.26 --> 1495.52] Oh. +[1495.84 --> 1496.90] And that is why they're gold. +[1497.98 --> 1499.06] Speaking of Asus, +[1499.18 --> 1500.66] is JJ ever going to join us here? +[1501.08 --> 1501.34] I don't know. +[1501.48 --> 1503.68] We haven't had our video chat open, +[1503.80 --> 1504.78] so I don't even know +[1504.78 --> 1507.84] if he has tried to send +[1507.84 --> 1509.24] a friend request or anything. +[1509.24 --> 1511.24] I don't see any requests +[1511.24 --> 1512.80] and I don't see any emails +[1512.80 --> 1514.92] from the Jmeister, +[1515.46 --> 1518.06] so maybe JJ will join us next week. +[1518.18 --> 1518.98] I don't know. +[1519.08 --> 1519.44] Boom. +[1519.70 --> 1520.34] Oh, you know, +[1520.40 --> 1521.30] we never showed the results +[1521.30 --> 1522.10] of that straw poll +[1522.10 --> 1523.54] that we ended up crashing the stream +[1523.54 --> 1524.56] over wanting to show them. +[1524.88 --> 1526.82] Are you happy with your ISP? +[1527.72 --> 1528.16] Wow. +[1529.26 --> 1531.20] A third of the people say yes. +[1531.26 --> 1531.90] Remember though, +[1531.98 --> 1534.02] our time zone for this show +[1534.02 --> 1535.42] is very well lined up. +[1536.02 --> 1536.76] With Australia. +[1537.32 --> 1537.86] Oh, yeah. +[1538.44 --> 1539.06] That's a good point. +[1539.56 --> 1540.30] They should definitely +[1540.30 --> 1540.94] be answering no. +[1541.08 --> 1542.66] All of them should be answering no. +[1542.90 --> 1544.14] Anyone from Australia, +[1544.48 --> 1546.18] go back and change your answer. +[1546.32 --> 1546.70] Seriously. +[1546.98 --> 1548.10] Because you're wrong. +[1550.18 --> 1551.04] Not good enough. +[1551.06 --> 1553.44] A full 24% said cucumber. +[1555.02 --> 1555.72] You know what? +[1555.76 --> 1556.66] I might have said cucumber. +[1557.08 --> 1557.78] Because you don't put +[1557.78 --> 1558.92] multi-options, do you? +[1559.14 --> 1559.48] Nope. +[1559.62 --> 1559.90] Nope. +[1560.54 --> 1562.30] You have to choose one option. +[1562.30 --> 1563.10] You've got to commit. +[1563.46 --> 1565.24] Yes, no, or cucumber. +[1566.96 --> 1567.78] Oh, man. +[1567.78 --> 1570.56] We haven't even covered anything. +[1571.34 --> 1573.00] We didn't really have much of a show +[1573.00 --> 1573.66] lined up today +[1573.66 --> 1574.92] because we were expecting JJ +[1574.92 --> 1575.76] to talk to us. +[1577.26 --> 1578.66] And tell us about Z97. +[1578.94 --> 1579.56] We talked about stuff. +[1579.64 --> 1580.44] We talked about FCC. +[1580.66 --> 1581.56] We talked about Watch Dogs. +[1581.68 --> 1583.34] We talked about Noctua fans. +[1583.48 --> 1584.48] We talked about Noctua fans. +[1584.56 --> 1584.82] Okay. +[1585.06 --> 1586.20] Well, let's talk about how +[1586.20 --> 1587.10] Xbox One +[1587.10 --> 1589.34] is slightly less unfair now. +[1589.34 --> 1591.92] So, they did a couple of things here +[1591.92 --> 1594.54] that I think I would look at +[1594.54 --> 1595.06] and say, +[1595.24 --> 1596.48] wow, that's really commendable +[1596.48 --> 1598.28] if they weren't so terrible +[1598.28 --> 1599.22] in the first place. +[1599.66 --> 1600.58] So, number one +[1600.58 --> 1601.64] is the fact that, +[1601.76 --> 1602.52] and honestly, +[1602.70 --> 1604.66] I've never owned an Xbox. +[1604.84 --> 1605.26] Okay, no, +[1605.32 --> 1606.32] I've owned an Xbox. +[1606.74 --> 1609.62] I have an Xbox 360 +[1609.62 --> 1610.86] and an Xbox One. +[1611.04 --> 1611.68] Okay, I do. +[1611.86 --> 1612.62] I own two Xboxes. +[1612.62 --> 1614.12] But they were both for, +[1614.34 --> 1616.14] not for really personal use much. +[1616.18 --> 1617.18] I could have used them. +[1617.34 --> 1618.02] But you didn't. +[1618.02 --> 1618.34] Right. +[1621.70 --> 1623.48] So, one of the biggest issues +[1623.48 --> 1625.26] that I had from day one, +[1625.34 --> 1626.62] like when I found out +[1626.62 --> 1628.36] as a PC gamer traditionally, +[1628.76 --> 1629.02] anyway, +[1629.10 --> 1630.08] this was posted on the forum +[1630.08 --> 1630.76] by Rafi, +[1631.12 --> 1632.08] when I found out +[1632.08 --> 1632.86] as a PC gamer +[1632.86 --> 1633.74] that they had +[1633.74 --> 1635.74] an Xbox Live Gold membership +[1635.74 --> 1637.54] that I had to have +[1637.54 --> 1638.26] to, like, +[1638.62 --> 1639.64] update my profile +[1639.64 --> 1641.28] or voice chat with people +[1641.28 --> 1642.34] or play multiplayer, +[1642.90 --> 1643.68] I was just like, +[1643.78 --> 1645.02] what, are you high? +[1645.64 --> 1646.74] Like, are you stupid? +[1646.74 --> 1646.86] David? +[1647.42 --> 1648.20] Like, if we just, +[1648.38 --> 1649.54] and I kind of said at the time, +[1649.60 --> 1650.82] I remember saying at the time, +[1650.92 --> 1652.74] look, if we all just boycott this, +[1653.06 --> 1654.08] it'll go away. +[1654.32 --> 1655.14] Like that. +[1655.86 --> 1656.26] Instantly. +[1656.42 --> 1657.18] It'll go away. +[1657.52 --> 1659.14] Because they have to sell consoles +[1659.14 --> 1660.64] and they have to sell games. +[1660.86 --> 1662.00] And if we refuse, +[1662.34 --> 1663.82] if we just all stand there +[1663.82 --> 1665.14] and not pay for it, +[1665.48 --> 1666.50] those subscription fees +[1666.50 --> 1667.22] will go away. +[1667.76 --> 1668.88] Looks like it's happening. +[1669.34 --> 1670.62] Microsoft is getting +[1670.62 --> 1671.34] a little desperate. +[1671.34 --> 1672.62] And then the other thing +[1672.62 --> 1673.12] that's terrible +[1673.12 --> 1673.82] in the first place +[1673.82 --> 1675.04] is the fact that the Kinect, +[1675.30 --> 1676.94] which was forced +[1676.94 --> 1678.80] to be bundled +[1678.80 --> 1679.70] with the Xbox One, +[1679.74 --> 1680.84] you were forced to buy one +[1680.84 --> 1681.96] if you wanted an Xbox One, +[1682.34 --> 1684.14] is now an option. +[1685.56 --> 1685.88] And I mean, +[1685.98 --> 1686.82] Kinect is just, +[1687.38 --> 1687.64] like, +[1688.08 --> 1689.02] it's one of those things +[1689.02 --> 1689.52] where, +[1690.10 --> 1690.82] you know what, +[1691.52 --> 1692.56] $100 Delta +[1692.56 --> 1694.28] and I wanted an Xbox One, +[1694.34 --> 1695.20] I would probably +[1695.20 --> 1696.20] buy the Kinect option. +[1697.10 --> 1698.58] I have a young family. +[1699.16 --> 1699.62] For kids, +[1700.26 --> 1700.82] you know what, +[1701.14 --> 1702.74] casual Kinect games, +[1702.92 --> 1703.68] I would rather, +[1703.84 --> 1704.82] and this is like, +[1704.92 --> 1706.42] this is like that kind of thing +[1706.42 --> 1707.92] that the gaming community +[1707.92 --> 1708.74] makes fun of. +[1708.96 --> 1710.28] And I wholeheartedly agree +[1710.28 --> 1710.86] with you guys. +[1710.94 --> 1711.76] It's all kind of silly. +[1711.88 --> 1712.88] And you'd have the control +[1712.88 --> 1713.62] of being able to stand +[1713.62 --> 1714.16] in your kitchen +[1714.16 --> 1715.04] and when your kid +[1715.04 --> 1715.84] won't get off the Xbox, +[1716.14 --> 1716.56] just be like, +[1716.60 --> 1717.22] Xbox off! +[1718.04 --> 1718.28] Like, +[1718.34 --> 1719.04] it's one of those things +[1719.04 --> 1720.42] where I would rather +[1720.42 --> 1721.68] my kids play at a game +[1721.68 --> 1722.70] that at least has them +[1722.70 --> 1723.66] waving their arm around. +[1724.66 --> 1725.54] If nothing else. +[1725.54 --> 1726.16] I don't, +[1726.20 --> 1727.52] I don't want to see, +[1727.72 --> 1729.36] I don't want to see my son +[1729.36 --> 1730.20] like, +[1730.32 --> 1731.44] slack-jawed life death +[1731.44 --> 1732.98] for four hours at a time. +[1733.86 --> 1734.72] It's one of those things. +[1734.82 --> 1734.94] Like, +[1735.00 --> 1735.56] I don't know, +[1735.64 --> 1735.86] like, +[1736.14 --> 1737.40] I did it as a kid. +[1737.66 --> 1738.46] I turned out alright. +[1738.90 --> 1740.04] But at the same time, +[1740.08 --> 1740.34] I just, +[1740.52 --> 1740.90] I don't know, +[1740.94 --> 1742.54] it just seems like... +[1743.56 --> 1744.10] It can happen. +[1744.20 --> 1744.94] You just probably want +[1744.94 --> 1745.66] a mix of things. +[1745.82 --> 1746.10] Like, +[1746.10 --> 1747.08] my parents were cool with it, +[1747.14 --> 1748.30] but I was extremely active. +[1748.42 --> 1749.36] I was in tons of sports +[1749.36 --> 1749.88] and all this kind of stuff. +[1749.88 --> 1750.08] Right. +[1750.34 --> 1751.34] But then I would also +[1751.34 --> 1753.64] lay completely across the couch +[1753.64 --> 1754.36] and play Morwen +[1754.36 --> 1755.06] for days on end. +[1755.28 --> 1755.50] Right. +[1755.62 --> 1756.06] So like, +[1756.18 --> 1756.72] I don't know. +[1757.58 --> 1757.98] Like, +[1757.98 --> 1759.20] I don't know what the right answer is, +[1759.28 --> 1759.52] but I, +[1759.58 --> 1760.38] but I will say that +[1760.38 --> 1761.20] if I was going to buy +[1761.20 --> 1762.58] the kids an Xbox game, +[1762.70 --> 1764.26] I would rather like, +[1764.32 --> 1764.62] you know, +[1764.74 --> 1765.92] dance-off challenge +[1765.92 --> 1766.44] or whatever +[1766.44 --> 1767.64] versus like, +[1767.94 --> 1768.20] you know, +[1768.32 --> 1768.62] blood, +[1768.76 --> 1769.50] blood sport, +[1769.76 --> 1771.52] 16 kind of, +[1771.88 --> 1772.10] you know, +[1772.10 --> 1772.76] Call of Duty 7, +[1772.76 --> 1772.82] Call of Duty 7, +[1772.82 --> 1773.28] yeah, +[1773.52 --> 1774.14] Call of Duty, +[1774.14 --> 1774.66] like, +[1774.78 --> 1775.52] Space Edition +[1775.52 --> 1776.94] or whatever that... +[1776.94 --> 1777.30] Don't worry, +[1777.38 --> 1778.46] the amoebas have AI. +[1778.98 --> 1779.32] Yeah. +[1780.10 --> 1781.08] We got like, +[1781.12 --> 1782.12] a big time actor +[1782.12 --> 1783.02] to put in the trailer +[1783.02 --> 1783.94] because we don't know +[1783.94 --> 1784.68] what else to do. +[1784.82 --> 1785.88] Who just plays a character +[1785.88 --> 1786.40] that he has, +[1786.46 --> 1787.18] no matter what, +[1787.28 --> 1789.04] definitely very recently played. +[1789.54 --> 1789.80] Like, +[1789.84 --> 1790.86] no differences. +[1791.96 --> 1792.44] I know. +[1792.44 --> 1794.00] It's exactly the same person. +[1794.26 --> 1795.66] Have you watched that at all? +[1795.76 --> 1796.00] Yes, +[1796.04 --> 1796.44] I have. +[1796.56 --> 1796.74] Yeah. +[1796.90 --> 1797.54] I'm just like, +[1797.68 --> 1798.08] wow. +[1800.22 --> 1801.84] Why is this even a video game? +[1801.94 --> 1802.66] Why don't we just make it +[1802.66 --> 1803.64] a movie then at this point? +[1803.68 --> 1804.78] I legitimately looked up +[1804.78 --> 1805.86] to see if he was actually +[1805.86 --> 1806.82] playing the same character. +[1807.28 --> 1807.58] Like, +[1807.60 --> 1808.12] I was wondering +[1808.12 --> 1809.08] if they had made a deal +[1809.08 --> 1810.00] with Netflix or something +[1810.00 --> 1810.36] to like, +[1810.44 --> 1811.28] integrate the show +[1811.28 --> 1811.90] into the game. +[1811.98 --> 1812.24] I was like, +[1812.26 --> 1812.36] oh, +[1812.40 --> 1813.26] that's kind of interesting. +[1813.26 --> 1814.26] That's an interesting idea. +[1814.38 --> 1814.62] Nope. +[1815.34 --> 1815.90] It's like, +[1815.96 --> 1816.16] oh, +[1816.66 --> 1817.08] okay. +[1817.94 --> 1818.72] Guess not. +[1819.10 --> 1819.88] So anyway, +[1820.20 --> 1821.42] I don't remember +[1821.42 --> 1822.60] where we were going +[1822.60 --> 1823.14] with this, +[1823.28 --> 1823.50] but, +[1823.62 --> 1825.06] so, +[1825.06 --> 1825.88] you will be able +[1825.88 --> 1826.52] to buy the Kinect +[1826.52 --> 1827.66] separately later this fall. +[1827.76 --> 1828.46] You can get the console +[1828.46 --> 1829.62] for $100 cheaper +[1829.62 --> 1830.78] without Kinect. +[1831.12 --> 1832.06] Someone's calling me +[1832.06 --> 1832.66] and, +[1832.82 --> 1833.20] uh, +[1833.26 --> 1833.88] something else. +[1833.98 --> 1834.10] Right. +[1834.18 --> 1834.86] Xbox Gold +[1834.86 --> 1836.22] is no longer required +[1836.22 --> 1837.38] for popular entertainment +[1837.38 --> 1838.48] experiences like Netflix +[1838.48 --> 1840.04] and Hulu Plus. +[1840.28 --> 1840.48] You know, +[1840.60 --> 1841.56] that's baffling to me. +[1841.60 --> 1842.38] Why did you ever need +[1842.38 --> 1843.28] that in the first place? +[1843.44 --> 1843.56] Yeah, +[1843.58 --> 1844.32] and I can't imagine +[1844.32 --> 1844.80] that Netflix, +[1844.98 --> 1845.60] Hulu Plus +[1845.60 --> 1846.02] and those guys +[1846.02 --> 1846.94] really wanted that +[1846.94 --> 1847.80] to be there at all. +[1847.92 --> 1848.40] They've probably been +[1848.40 --> 1849.44] pushing against it as well. +[1849.92 --> 1850.86] But what can they do, +[1850.90 --> 1851.06] right? +[1851.28 --> 1851.52] Yeah. +[1851.72 --> 1851.96] You know, +[1852.00 --> 1852.70] I used to play +[1852.70 --> 1853.88] Halo 2 online, +[1854.02 --> 1854.62] so I had to have +[1854.62 --> 1855.26] a gold subscription +[1855.26 --> 1856.26] and what I would do +[1856.26 --> 1856.74] is I would have +[1856.74 --> 1857.64] my whole friends list +[1857.64 --> 1858.22] written out +[1858.22 --> 1860.86] and then every single time +[1860.86 --> 1861.50] that, +[1861.56 --> 1862.34] uh, +[1862.96 --> 1863.54] You know you were +[1863.54 --> 1864.12] a sucker, right? +[1864.12 --> 1864.46] My one month +[1864.46 --> 1865.28] would end up, +[1865.44 --> 1866.48] every time my one month +[1866.48 --> 1866.66] would, +[1866.72 --> 1867.04] uh, +[1867.04 --> 1867.48] close, +[1867.66 --> 1868.26] you would get a +[1868.26 --> 1868.98] one month free +[1868.98 --> 1869.38] if you made +[1869.38 --> 1870.28] a new MSN account. +[1872.62 --> 1872.94] Oh. +[1872.94 --> 1874.26] So I had my whole +[1874.26 --> 1875.30] friends list written out. +[1877.70 --> 1878.64] I'm not gonna go +[1878.64 --> 1879.34] into what I did +[1879.34 --> 1879.92] from there. +[1879.98 --> 1880.80] Your friends must have +[1880.80 --> 1882.30] But I had a hard copy +[1882.30 --> 1883.44] of my friends list. +[1884.02 --> 1884.22] Yeah, +[1884.30 --> 1884.64] they did. +[1885.36 --> 1886.74] That is so annoying. +[1887.86 --> 1888.26] Oh, +[1888.42 --> 1889.28] it's the first, +[1889.46 --> 1889.86] okay, +[1890.14 --> 1890.66] Luke's +[1890.66 --> 1891.82] friggin' late. +[1892.78 --> 1894.14] Gonna have to re-at him +[1894.14 --> 1894.78] cause he's a +[1894.78 --> 1896.38] jack-at bum +[1896.38 --> 1897.50] poo head. +[1898.08 --> 1898.78] I was like, +[1898.92 --> 1899.96] I was paying for +[1899.96 --> 1900.70] my games at that +[1900.70 --> 1901.22] point in time +[1901.22 --> 1901.58] and like, +[1901.64 --> 1902.28] there's no way +[1902.28 --> 1902.94] I'm gonna pay +[1902.94 --> 1903.88] that much money +[1903.88 --> 1904.80] for this stupid +[1904.80 --> 1905.62] online subscription +[1905.62 --> 1907.12] that I don't wanna do. +[1907.26 --> 1907.82] And like, +[1907.94 --> 1908.48] there's no way +[1908.48 --> 1909.10] your parents are gonna +[1909.10 --> 1909.78] buy that for you. +[1909.88 --> 1910.08] No. +[1910.26 --> 1910.52] Nope. +[1911.34 --> 1911.58] I, +[1911.58 --> 1911.84] I, +[1911.84 --> 1912.08] I, +[1912.08 --> 1912.54] I've, +[1912.54 --> 1913.40] I've met him, +[1913.44 --> 1914.06] I've spent enough +[1914.06 --> 1914.84] time with his parents +[1914.84 --> 1915.30] to be like, +[1915.36 --> 1915.50] yeah, +[1915.58 --> 1916.38] they're pretty supportive +[1916.38 --> 1916.98] but like, +[1917.04 --> 1917.82] you figure it out. +[1918.08 --> 1918.28] Yeah, +[1918.36 --> 1918.90] I paid for, +[1918.90 --> 1919.86] I played EverQuest +[1919.86 --> 1920.42] back in the day. +[1920.62 --> 1921.36] I paid for those. +[1921.90 --> 1922.46] I paid for those +[1922.46 --> 1922.84] monthlies. +[1922.84 --> 1923.92] So that's why +[1923.92 --> 1924.62] you got into +[1924.62 --> 1925.36] EVE Online. +[1926.04 --> 1926.76] Because you could +[1926.76 --> 1927.74] earn your subscription +[1927.74 --> 1928.08] fee. +[1930.16 --> 1931.06] Wow subscriptions, +[1931.26 --> 1931.82] I think my parents +[1931.82 --> 1932.26] helped me out +[1932.26 --> 1933.08] a little bit though +[1933.08 --> 1933.80] but then it was +[1933.80 --> 1934.18] my brother, +[1934.28 --> 1934.80] my dad and I +[1934.80 --> 1935.04] and we all +[1935.04 --> 1935.56] played together. +[1935.80 --> 1935.94] Right, +[1936.08 --> 1936.64] well that's different. +[1936.66 --> 1936.84] And like my mom came +[1936.84 --> 1937.42] and played with us +[1937.42 --> 1938.44] sometimes too and stuff +[1938.44 --> 1939.10] so it was like, +[1939.16 --> 1939.42] we're all, +[1939.60 --> 1939.78] yeah, +[1940.24 --> 1941.10] that was kind of cool. +[1941.44 --> 1942.16] And for a lot of times +[1942.16 --> 1943.18] we even shared an account +[1943.18 --> 1944.32] with all three of us. +[1944.62 --> 1944.64] So, +[1945.46 --> 1945.66] yeah. +[1946.20 --> 1946.56] Alright, +[1946.80 --> 1947.14] so, +[1947.28 --> 1947.98] you know what's funny +[1947.98 --> 1948.98] is there was a post +[1948.98 --> 1949.84] in this thread. +[1949.94 --> 1950.62] So this was originally +[1950.62 --> 1951.80] posted by Tech Fanatic +[1951.80 --> 1952.34] on the forum, +[1952.34 --> 1953.04] thank you very much +[1953.04 --> 1953.48] for posting, +[1953.88 --> 1954.86] that said that +[1954.86 --> 1955.32] like, +[1955.58 --> 1956.20] ha ha ha, +[1956.34 --> 1957.44] Linus was so down +[1957.44 --> 1959.38] on AMD's FreeSync, +[1959.70 --> 1960.06] lol, +[1960.36 --> 1961.12] you know, +[1961.22 --> 1962.16] goes to show him. +[1962.30 --> 1963.00] And I was a little bit +[1963.00 --> 1963.70] confused by that. +[1963.76 --> 1965.02] Was I ever at any point +[1965.02 --> 1966.12] down on FreeSync? +[1966.12 --> 1967.44] A little bit. +[1968.20 --> 1968.74] What did I say? +[1968.80 --> 1969.28] You said it wasn't +[1969.28 --> 1969.86] going to work. +[1970.56 --> 1971.10] But then I think you, +[1971.16 --> 1971.38] I think you, +[1971.38 --> 1972.16] I said it wouldn't work +[1972.16 --> 1973.10] with the scalers now. +[1973.32 --> 1973.56] Yeah, +[1973.78 --> 1974.84] and I'm pretty sure +[1974.84 --> 1975.86] specific words +[1975.86 --> 1976.74] were current form. +[1976.94 --> 1977.96] And I said that +[1977.96 --> 1978.88] that was NVIDIA +[1978.88 --> 1979.60] saying that. +[1980.16 --> 1980.44] Yeah. +[1981.26 --> 1982.08] And actually, +[1982.08 --> 1983.22] I know that you said +[1983.22 --> 1983.68] it won't work +[1983.68 --> 1984.40] in its current form. +[1984.62 --> 1985.48] And when the news +[1985.48 --> 1986.52] first broke +[1986.52 --> 1988.28] on Nantech, +[1988.40 --> 1989.54] I actually posted +[1989.54 --> 1990.32] that to Facebook +[1990.32 --> 1991.32] and I was like, +[1991.64 --> 1992.14] holy crap, +[1992.22 --> 1993.04] does this completely +[1993.04 --> 1994.84] invalidate G-Sync's existence? +[1995.72 --> 1996.04] Yeah. +[1996.30 --> 1996.66] So, +[1996.84 --> 1997.20] I don't know +[1997.20 --> 1998.20] where all this came from, +[1998.32 --> 1999.30] but I am totally +[1999.30 --> 2001.04] 100% on board +[2001.04 --> 2002.80] with AMD's FreeSync, +[2002.92 --> 2004.44] now called ActiveSync. +[2004.92 --> 2005.70] There's one thing +[2005.70 --> 2006.70] that I'm a little bit +[2006.70 --> 2008.00] sketched out about so far, +[2008.12 --> 2008.64] and that was +[2008.64 --> 2009.52] doing some reading. +[2009.82 --> 2011.96] It's not 100% clear to me +[2011.96 --> 2012.86] what cards it's going +[2012.86 --> 2013.38] to work on, +[2013.70 --> 2015.52] because it looks like +[2015.52 --> 2016.56] they're saying +[2016.56 --> 2019.22] R9 290X +[2019.22 --> 2021.28] and 260X, +[2021.52 --> 2022.62] which would basically +[2022.62 --> 2025.42] be Hawaii version, +[2025.90 --> 2026.66] whatever it is, +[2026.72 --> 2027.32] the new ones. +[2027.92 --> 2028.44] So, +[2028.58 --> 2029.72] not the rebadges +[2029.72 --> 2031.20] of the Tahiti Core ones. +[2031.72 --> 2033.14] Which would really suck. +[2033.20 --> 2033.58] Which would be +[2033.58 --> 2034.20] really sucky. +[2034.28 --> 2034.74] And then there's +[2034.74 --> 2035.38] no mention +[2035.38 --> 2036.68] of NVIDIA cards. +[2036.84 --> 2036.98] Now, +[2037.48 --> 2038.70] what I think is, +[2039.56 --> 2041.68] AMD's whole stance +[2041.68 --> 2042.86] lately has been +[2042.86 --> 2043.66] open standards +[2043.66 --> 2044.34] this and that, +[2044.60 --> 2046.22] so I sincerely hope +[2046.22 --> 2047.64] that it's an open standard, +[2048.24 --> 2049.08] but, +[2049.22 --> 2050.86] I would hate +[2050.86 --> 2052.38] to see it happen, +[2052.76 --> 2053.92] where NVIDIA's pushing +[2053.92 --> 2054.98] a G-Sync standard, +[2055.42 --> 2056.64] and AMD's pushing +[2056.64 --> 2058.04] an Adaptive Sync standard, +[2058.20 --> 2058.78] and we end up +[2058.78 --> 2059.24] with monitors +[2059.24 --> 2059.96] that support +[2059.96 --> 2061.06] one or the other +[2061.06 --> 2061.82] or both. +[2062.18 --> 2062.44] Because, +[2062.88 --> 2063.58] and this is something +[2063.58 --> 2065.00] I have criticized NVIDIA +[2065.00 --> 2065.40] about, +[2065.72 --> 2066.46] asking people +[2066.46 --> 2067.88] to lock into something +[2067.88 --> 2069.34] is kind of sucky. +[2069.58 --> 2070.54] I do understand +[2070.54 --> 2071.62] that if you develop +[2071.62 --> 2072.34] the technology, +[2072.52 --> 2072.66] like, +[2072.72 --> 2073.88] they basically built +[2073.88 --> 2074.72] their own +[2074.72 --> 2075.72] scalar hardware +[2075.72 --> 2076.36] for monitors. +[2076.36 --> 2077.42] It's not just +[2077.42 --> 2078.44] a software trick. +[2078.92 --> 2079.18] I mean, +[2079.22 --> 2079.88] if you're developing +[2079.88 --> 2080.52] the technology, +[2080.66 --> 2081.16] I understand +[2081.16 --> 2081.78] that you want +[2081.78 --> 2082.60] to benefit from it, +[2082.68 --> 2083.18] and the only way +[2083.18 --> 2083.72] you're going to benefit +[2083.72 --> 2084.90] from it is a license +[2084.90 --> 2085.90] feed to the monitor guys +[2085.90 --> 2086.82] and selling more +[2086.82 --> 2087.46] graphics cards +[2087.46 --> 2088.42] to go with those monitors, +[2088.70 --> 2089.64] but that doesn't mean +[2089.64 --> 2090.44] I have to be happy +[2090.44 --> 2091.00] about it. +[2091.00 --> 2093.38] And I think that +[2093.38 --> 2094.38] it will be definitely +[2094.38 --> 2095.40] the wrong path +[2095.40 --> 2096.22] if both of them +[2096.22 --> 2097.02] try to do that. +[2097.14 --> 2097.34] I mean, +[2097.40 --> 2097.86] the good news +[2097.86 --> 2098.82] about Adaptive Sync +[2098.82 --> 2100.24] is unlike G-Sync, +[2100.46 --> 2101.16] it looks like +[2101.16 --> 2101.58] it's going to be +[2101.58 --> 2102.68] a very simple implementation, +[2103.08 --> 2103.94] so anything with +[2103.94 --> 2106.10] DisplayPort 1.2a +[2106.10 --> 2108.84] will have Adaptive Sync +[2108.84 --> 2110.22] as part of the VESA standard, +[2111.06 --> 2113.34] which pretty much, +[2113.48 --> 2114.00] I mean, +[2114.32 --> 2114.72] you know, +[2114.90 --> 2116.42] don't quote me on this +[2116.42 --> 2117.68] six months down the line. +[2117.68 --> 2120.58] Really don't quote me on this, +[2120.70 --> 2122.40] but if that happens, +[2122.88 --> 2123.42] Active Sync +[2123.42 --> 2124.18] is going to just be +[2124.18 --> 2125.14] in any monitor +[2125.14 --> 2126.42] with a DisplayPort port, +[2126.54 --> 2127.34] because remember guys, +[2127.44 --> 2128.36] DisplayPort is free +[2128.36 --> 2129.46] to implement on your monitor +[2129.46 --> 2130.72] compared to the license fees +[2130.72 --> 2131.82] associated with HDMI, +[2132.28 --> 2134.22] so it'll just support Active Sync, +[2134.26 --> 2135.42] and I really don't know +[2135.42 --> 2136.02] what the future +[2136.02 --> 2136.94] of G-Sync will be. +[2137.22 --> 2138.38] One thing that NVIDIA +[2138.38 --> 2139.82] did say openly +[2139.82 --> 2141.92] was that we really want +[2141.92 --> 2142.96] the gaming experience +[2142.96 --> 2143.76] to be better, +[2144.38 --> 2145.44] and that's why +[2145.44 --> 2146.56] we made this technology, +[2146.76 --> 2147.60] so I really hope +[2147.60 --> 2149.22] that if they managed +[2149.22 --> 2150.64] to move the industry forward, +[2150.92 --> 2152.06] that they still feel good +[2152.06 --> 2152.60] about themselves, +[2152.86 --> 2154.18] and that we all still remember +[2154.18 --> 2154.96] who did it. +[2155.54 --> 2156.10] So that's, +[2156.18 --> 2156.46] I guess, +[2156.48 --> 2157.54] all I have to say about that. +[2157.74 --> 2159.08] And I say the same, +[2159.18 --> 2160.10] and it's not because, +[2160.18 --> 2160.44] you know, +[2160.68 --> 2161.50] I've got, +[2161.64 --> 2161.94] you know, +[2162.02 --> 2162.66] a raging, +[2163.10 --> 2163.70] you know, +[2164.08 --> 2165.38] hard-on for NVIDIA. +[2165.38 --> 2167.14] It's because I do appreciate +[2167.14 --> 2167.88] anyone who pushes +[2167.88 --> 2168.72] the industry forward. +[2168.86 --> 2169.38] I don't have +[2169.38 --> 2171.10] a ton of love for Apple, +[2171.30 --> 2172.24] but I appreciate +[2172.24 --> 2173.04] that they pushed +[2173.04 --> 2174.16] resolution forward, +[2174.32 --> 2175.24] even though they don't +[2175.24 --> 2176.16] even make displays. +[2176.16 --> 2177.78] why did it take Apple +[2177.78 --> 2180.30] to develop the retina concept? +[2182.48 --> 2182.92] Why? +[2183.20 --> 2183.66] And like, +[2183.68 --> 2184.60] I appreciate other things +[2184.60 --> 2184.94] they do, +[2185.02 --> 2185.74] like the fact that +[2185.74 --> 2186.98] they focus on accurate +[2186.98 --> 2188.16] color for their displays, +[2188.56 --> 2189.48] whereas everyone else, +[2189.64 --> 2190.38] other than Google, +[2190.72 --> 2191.28] seems to be, +[2191.42 --> 2192.48] and HTC is doing +[2192.48 --> 2193.10] a better job lately. +[2193.10 --> 2193.36] I mean, +[2193.42 --> 2193.52] well, +[2193.56 --> 2194.10] everyone's doing +[2194.10 --> 2194.78] a better job lately, +[2194.92 --> 2196.34] but Apple started it. +[2196.34 --> 2198.24] And so I think +[2198.24 --> 2198.86] we just all need +[2198.86 --> 2199.46] to appreciate +[2199.46 --> 2200.62] the guys who innovate, +[2200.74 --> 2201.58] even if that innovation +[2201.58 --> 2202.92] isn't inventing +[2202.92 --> 2204.40] or actually building something, +[2204.52 --> 2206.12] if it's just awareness +[2206.12 --> 2207.30] and making people understand +[2207.30 --> 2208.28] that something needs to happen. +[2209.08 --> 2209.58] So there, +[2209.80 --> 2210.32] that's what I have +[2210.32 --> 2210.98] to say about that. +[2211.04 --> 2211.48] I guess there's +[2211.48 --> 2212.32] some other stuff in there, +[2212.36 --> 2212.74] isn't there? +[2212.82 --> 2213.32] Something about, +[2213.38 --> 2213.72] like, +[2214.48 --> 2216.54] potentially DisplayPort 1.3 +[2216.54 --> 2216.84] as well? +[2217.36 --> 2217.70] Well, +[2217.80 --> 2218.56] DisplayPort 1.3 +[2218.56 --> 2219.22] will be able +[2219.22 --> 2220.12] to support 8K, +[2220.12 --> 2222.52] although it'll have +[2222.52 --> 2223.96] to change the connector +[2223.96 --> 2224.56] to be able to support +[2224.56 --> 2226.54] 8K or 4K 3D. +[2226.90 --> 2228.14] So that's not necessarily +[2228.14 --> 2229.70] tied into the actual +[2229.70 --> 2230.58] Adaptive Sync thing, +[2230.66 --> 2231.10] that's just talking +[2231.10 --> 2232.30] about future DisplayPort connectors. +[2232.36 --> 2233.02] And if anyone wants +[2233.02 --> 2234.22] an explanation of Adaptive Sync, +[2234.28 --> 2235.10] basically what it means +[2235.10 --> 2235.88] is that your monitor +[2235.88 --> 2236.82] will only refresh +[2236.82 --> 2237.94] when your graphics card +[2237.94 --> 2238.68] outputs a signal. +[2238.88 --> 2240.30] So it's just like G-Sync +[2240.30 --> 2241.12] and it will reduce +[2241.12 --> 2242.42] tearing and lag, +[2242.60 --> 2243.72] and it really does +[2243.72 --> 2244.92] make a very big difference. +[2245.08 --> 2245.52] It's, like, +[2246.52 --> 2247.02] fantastic. +[2247.32 --> 2248.88] Low persistence is cool, man. +[2249.04 --> 2249.26] Yeah, +[2249.26 --> 2250.18] and low persistence +[2250.18 --> 2251.02] on top of that +[2251.02 --> 2251.70] is going to turn +[2251.70 --> 2253.18] the LCD gaming experience +[2253.18 --> 2254.22] into finally, +[2254.46 --> 2255.40] legitimately better +[2255.40 --> 2257.08] than a CRT gaming experience. +[2257.20 --> 2257.36] Yeah. +[2257.76 --> 2258.62] You know how people +[2258.62 --> 2259.26] were talking about... +[2259.26 --> 2260.34] So many years later. +[2260.60 --> 2261.42] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[2261.70 --> 2262.84] This is totally +[2262.84 --> 2264.40] off-topic completely, +[2264.66 --> 2265.06] but you know how +[2265.06 --> 2265.50] people were talking +[2265.50 --> 2266.10] about how our office +[2266.10 --> 2266.50] was dirty +[2266.50 --> 2267.30] in the Office Tour video? +[2267.70 --> 2268.14] Yes. +[2268.40 --> 2269.12] Have you seen +[2269.12 --> 2269.92] Palmer's office? +[2270.34 --> 2270.70] No. +[2271.28 --> 2272.46] Oh my god. +[2273.28 --> 2274.00] There's just, like, +[2274.10 --> 2275.56] the side of his desk, +[2275.94 --> 2276.36] there's, like, +[2276.38 --> 2278.12] an angled pile of garbage +[2278.12 --> 2279.64] that goes all the way up +[2279.64 --> 2280.56] and touches the top +[2280.56 --> 2281.06] of his desk +[2281.06 --> 2282.04] on both sides, +[2282.16 --> 2283.12] and then on both sides +[2283.12 --> 2283.56] of the door, +[2283.66 --> 2284.32] there's just, like, +[2284.88 --> 2285.60] stuff. +[2286.02 --> 2286.84] And none of it's, like, +[2286.90 --> 2287.58] none of it necessarily +[2287.58 --> 2288.18] looks like you should +[2288.18 --> 2288.74] throw it away. +[2289.08 --> 2290.82] It's just stuff. +[2291.12 --> 2292.60] Just all over the place. +[2292.76 --> 2293.72] The whole top of his desk, +[2293.78 --> 2294.80] there's a laptop sitting, +[2294.92 --> 2295.90] like, angled on top +[2295.90 --> 2296.60] of a bunch of books +[2296.60 --> 2297.36] and other crap. +[2297.36 --> 2299.24] Is the top of his desk +[2299.24 --> 2300.28] worse than my desk +[2300.28 --> 2301.32] was back at NCIX? +[2301.70 --> 2302.76] You remember the piles +[2302.76 --> 2303.62] of paper that I used +[2303.62 --> 2304.38] to have on my desk, +[2304.42 --> 2304.44] right? +[2304.44 --> 2305.48] I think they're, like, +[2306.06 --> 2306.70] I don't know, +[2306.76 --> 2307.24] because I didn't get, +[2307.34 --> 2308.24] like, a top-down view. +[2308.48 --> 2309.66] I got it from the side, +[2310.06 --> 2311.66] but that's got to be +[2311.66 --> 2312.32] one of the closest +[2312.32 --> 2313.92] to your desk I've ever seen. +[2314.04 --> 2315.34] Like, it's insanity. +[2315.84 --> 2316.22] And there's, like, +[2316.22 --> 2317.20] an interview going on +[2317.20 --> 2317.44] in there, +[2317.46 --> 2317.96] and he's just like, +[2318.02 --> 2318.56] yeah, whatever, +[2318.68 --> 2319.38] I don't even care. +[2319.82 --> 2321.60] The number of people... +[2321.60 --> 2323.20] 8K is just a number. +[2323.20 --> 2325.82] The number of people +[2325.82 --> 2326.46] telling us, +[2326.78 --> 2327.96] or asking why we didn't +[2327.96 --> 2328.72] clean up the office +[2328.72 --> 2329.72] before we did a tour. +[2330.18 --> 2331.06] Oh, you guys. +[2332.20 --> 2333.52] The number of hours +[2333.52 --> 2334.48] that went into cleanup +[2334.48 --> 2335.98] before that tour happened. +[2336.14 --> 2336.40] Huge. +[2337.82 --> 2338.76] You wouldn't have even +[2338.76 --> 2339.82] believed this place. +[2339.96 --> 2340.94] There was, like, +[2341.02 --> 2341.52] okay, here, +[2341.70 --> 2342.22] I'm gonna put this +[2342.22 --> 2343.22] in perspective for a minute. +[2343.82 --> 2345.46] All that stuff in the garage +[2345.46 --> 2347.48] was in the house, okay? +[2347.64 --> 2347.84] Yeah. +[2347.96 --> 2348.72] So that's step one. +[2348.90 --> 2349.68] Step number two, +[2350.16 --> 2351.44] all of the shelves, +[2351.44 --> 2352.96] the one in Luke's office, +[2353.20 --> 2354.20] and the ones downstairs +[2354.20 --> 2355.30] for the camera equipment +[2355.30 --> 2356.44] were in the house. +[2356.64 --> 2357.08] Oh, sorry, +[2357.16 --> 2358.00] we didn't have. +[2358.76 --> 2359.56] So all of that +[2359.56 --> 2360.12] was on the floor. +[2360.14 --> 2360.72] Yeah, the table +[2360.72 --> 2361.76] that was out in the garage, +[2361.88 --> 2362.44] that's just, like, +[2362.60 --> 2363.72] a dining room table +[2363.72 --> 2364.88] that has, like, +[2365.02 --> 2366.68] pedestal-style feed under it, +[2366.70 --> 2367.16] so there's, like, +[2367.18 --> 2368.12] not really any room under it. +[2368.28 --> 2369.50] That was what we were using +[2369.50 --> 2370.42] in place of where +[2370.42 --> 2371.78] Brandon's shelf is. +[2372.00 --> 2372.60] So, like, +[2372.66 --> 2373.24] all the stuff +[2373.24 --> 2374.08] that's on that shelf +[2374.08 --> 2375.28] was either on that, +[2375.58 --> 2376.08] under it, +[2376.12 --> 2377.04] or on the floor +[2377.04 --> 2378.48] in the fastest possible +[2378.48 --> 2379.24] green screen area. +[2379.64 --> 2379.96] Sometimes, +[2380.18 --> 2380.84] when we had to shoot +[2380.84 --> 2381.74] as fast as possible, +[2382.08 --> 2382.74] we legit +[2382.74 --> 2383.60] had to, like, +[2383.78 --> 2384.94] rearrange the piles +[2384.94 --> 2385.84] of stuff on the floor +[2385.84 --> 2386.66] so the lights +[2386.66 --> 2387.28] could illuminate +[2387.28 --> 2388.42] the green screen correctly. +[2389.24 --> 2390.54] You guys have no idea. +[2390.62 --> 2391.24] Like, it's actually, +[2391.70 --> 2392.82] everyone around here +[2392.82 --> 2393.82] has been marveling lately +[2393.82 --> 2394.60] at how easy it is +[2394.60 --> 2395.30] to work right now. +[2395.38 --> 2396.00] It's, it's, +[2396.06 --> 2396.92] it's quite amazing. +[2397.38 --> 2398.30] You can walk +[2398.30 --> 2399.02] in a straight line +[2399.02 --> 2400.44] for at least two seconds +[2400.44 --> 2401.42] without running into anything. +[2401.64 --> 2401.90] Yeah. +[2402.08 --> 2403.14] Or tripping on something. +[2403.14 --> 2404.38] Shuffling your foot forward +[2404.38 --> 2405.72] would have ran into something. +[2405.80 --> 2407.26] I think Brandon's agility +[2407.26 --> 2408.30] has leveled up +[2408.30 --> 2409.60] at least six levels +[2409.60 --> 2410.80] since he started working here +[2410.80 --> 2411.76] because that guy, +[2412.22 --> 2412.90] he almost ended up +[2412.90 --> 2413.26] He's calling cables. +[2413.46 --> 2414.26] He almost ended up +[2414.26 --> 2415.20] with the nickname cables. +[2415.48 --> 2416.24] If we hadn't started +[2416.24 --> 2417.20] calling him B-roll +[2417.20 --> 2418.20] before we started +[2418.20 --> 2419.06] calling him cables, +[2419.30 --> 2420.10] he would have been cables +[2420.10 --> 2420.70] for sure +[2420.70 --> 2421.82] because that guy, +[2422.28 --> 2423.30] when he first started +[2423.30 --> 2423.86] working here, +[2424.02 --> 2425.46] you put a cable in a room, +[2425.62 --> 2426.38] he would trip over it. +[2426.38 --> 2426.62] Oh yeah. +[2427.30 --> 2427.78] 100%. +[2427.78 --> 2429.10] Like the number of times +[2429.10 --> 2430.86] he has almost destroyed +[2430.86 --> 2432.68] the Sony FS700 camera, +[2432.76 --> 2433.88] the $8,000 camera. +[2433.94 --> 2434.40] It's amazing. +[2434.50 --> 2435.38] I can probably count +[2435.38 --> 2436.58] on more than one hand +[2436.58 --> 2437.60] because of like +[2437.60 --> 2438.56] tripping on something +[2438.56 --> 2439.94] or hooking it on something +[2439.94 --> 2440.56] and like, +[2440.86 --> 2441.22] and then, +[2441.28 --> 2441.66] oh man, +[2441.68 --> 2442.40] there's this one time +[2442.40 --> 2443.08] when he didn't lock +[2443.08 --> 2443.94] the tripod head. +[2444.02 --> 2444.56] Oh no. +[2444.60 --> 2445.00] And it, +[2445.00 --> 2446.80] it was going down so fast +[2446.80 --> 2447.34] that I, +[2447.42 --> 2449.02] I swear the lens mount +[2449.02 --> 2449.78] would have broken +[2449.78 --> 2450.32] or something +[2450.32 --> 2451.06] and then he's like, +[2451.06 --> 2451.26] oh, +[2451.32 --> 2452.00] and he caught it. +[2453.12 --> 2453.56] Oh. +[2454.30 --> 2454.70] Uh, +[2454.82 --> 2455.18] yeah, +[2455.28 --> 2456.10] and like he, +[2456.10 --> 2456.96] he's learned the, +[2456.96 --> 2457.76] the foot flick +[2457.76 --> 2458.14] Yeah, +[2458.22 --> 2458.66] the foot flick. +[2458.68 --> 2459.36] Which most nerds +[2459.36 --> 2459.90] that I know, +[2460.14 --> 2460.42] know, +[2460.72 --> 2461.56] which is when you're like +[2461.56 --> 2462.28] walking across +[2462.28 --> 2463.10] and you trip on +[2463.10 --> 2464.44] traditionally an Ethernet cable +[2464.44 --> 2465.42] but it could be anything. +[2465.50 --> 2465.92] Could be power. +[2465.98 --> 2467.16] Your foot goes under it +[2467.16 --> 2468.72] and then you fall forward, +[2468.92 --> 2469.92] whip your foot back +[2469.92 --> 2471.12] and then slam it forward +[2471.12 --> 2472.26] so that you can land +[2472.26 --> 2473.12] and you're okay. +[2473.34 --> 2474.08] You look kind of weird +[2474.08 --> 2474.70] but you're okay +[2474.70 --> 2476.02] but it doesn't pull on the cable. +[2476.16 --> 2477.08] We should do a guide. +[2477.56 --> 2478.28] We should do a guide. +[2478.28 --> 2479.06] We should do a guide. +[2479.68 --> 2480.44] How to navigate, +[2480.74 --> 2480.90] like, +[2481.16 --> 2482.32] we noticed a lot of you +[2482.32 --> 2483.00] were upset about +[2483.00 --> 2483.78] the number of cables +[2483.78 --> 2484.40] in our office. +[2485.08 --> 2485.80] Let's show you +[2485.80 --> 2486.54] a little trick. +[2486.54 --> 2487.50] It's called +[2487.50 --> 2488.32] the foot flick. +[2488.64 --> 2489.38] The foot flick. +[2489.38 --> 2490.20] That would be awesome. +[2490.82 --> 2491.56] It should be like +[2491.56 --> 2492.32] a music video. +[2493.72 --> 2494.66] I've always kind of +[2494.66 --> 2495.92] wanted to do a music video. +[2496.76 --> 2497.84] Everybody do the foot flick. +[2497.94 --> 2498.98] Everybody do the foot flick. +[2501.76 --> 2502.98] That would be fantastic. +[2503.24 --> 2503.50] All right, +[2503.54 --> 2503.66] well, +[2503.66 --> 2504.40] we should probably do +[2504.40 --> 2505.30] our sponsor spots +[2505.30 --> 2505.68] or something +[2505.68 --> 2506.64] at some point here. +[2507.14 --> 2508.18] Brought to you by foot flick. +[2508.32 --> 2509.46] Brought to you by foot flick. +[2509.90 --> 2510.38] Squarespace, +[2510.86 --> 2511.96] the number one website +[2511.96 --> 2513.30] for creating a website +[2513.30 --> 2514.44] about foot flicks. +[2514.54 --> 2514.96] Just go to +[2514.96 --> 2516.12] squarespace.com, +[2516.42 --> 2517.04] sign up, +[2517.14 --> 2517.82] and you can have +[2517.82 --> 2518.92] your website online +[2518.92 --> 2521.02] in just a matter of no time. +[2521.10 --> 2521.82] It'll look great +[2521.82 --> 2522.54] on the desktop, +[2522.82 --> 2523.86] great on the notebook, +[2524.10 --> 2524.58] which is basically +[2524.58 --> 2525.12] the same thing, +[2525.34 --> 2526.60] and great on your tablet +[2526.60 --> 2527.30] and smartphone +[2527.30 --> 2528.08] because the way +[2528.08 --> 2529.14] that their templates work +[2529.14 --> 2530.36] makes it super easy +[2530.36 --> 2531.06] to get set up +[2531.06 --> 2532.12] and something +[2532.12 --> 2533.56] I always forget to mention. +[2533.82 --> 2535.36] They have 24-7 tech support. +[2535.98 --> 2536.16] Yeah. +[2536.28 --> 2537.18] I always forget about this. +[2537.24 --> 2537.80] That is actually +[2537.80 --> 2538.60] a huge deal. +[2538.60 --> 2539.00] It is. +[2539.06 --> 2540.10] It's not phone support, +[2540.24 --> 2540.52] mind you, +[2540.58 --> 2541.74] but you can email them, +[2541.86 --> 2542.50] and I've actually, +[2542.92 --> 2544.22] I had my mom try them, +[2544.62 --> 2545.50] and even though +[2545.50 --> 2546.72] my mom still didn't +[2546.72 --> 2547.78] manage to figure it out, +[2548.24 --> 2549.50] I read the responses +[2549.50 --> 2550.82] and they were super helpful +[2550.82 --> 2552.84] and really fast, +[2552.92 --> 2553.52] and I was just like, +[2553.60 --> 2553.84] Ma, +[2554.40 --> 2556.72] you have to read it. +[2557.36 --> 2559.04] You can't just get an email +[2559.04 --> 2560.44] from an internet company, +[2560.78 --> 2561.66] assume you're not going +[2561.66 --> 2562.54] to be able to read it, +[2562.58 --> 2563.36] and then call me. +[2563.66 --> 2565.16] You have to try to read it. +[2565.88 --> 2567.50] They explain. +[2567.50 --> 2569.08] If you just read the thing. +[2569.46 --> 2569.76] Anyway, +[2570.20 --> 2571.04] my mother aside, +[2571.14 --> 2573.24] Squarespace is super easy +[2573.24 --> 2573.74] to use, +[2573.94 --> 2574.80] super scalable, +[2575.48 --> 2576.60] and apparently, +[2577.14 --> 2578.06] based on how much +[2578.06 --> 2579.04] positive feedback +[2579.04 --> 2580.80] I get about Squarespace, +[2581.10 --> 2581.90] you guys love it. +[2582.32 --> 2582.56] So, +[2582.70 --> 2583.56] the number of people +[2583.56 --> 2585.34] that have just sent me tweets +[2585.34 --> 2586.44] thanking me +[2586.44 --> 2588.52] for the 10% off, +[2588.60 --> 2589.52] so if you head over to +[2589.52 --> 2590.30] squarespace.com +[2590.30 --> 2590.94] slash Linus +[2590.94 --> 2592.22] and use offer code Linus, +[2592.26 --> 2593.38] you can save 10%. +[2593.38 --> 2594.28] So, +[2594.38 --> 2595.04] people thanking me +[2595.04 --> 2596.12] for the 10% off +[2596.12 --> 2597.00] and people telling me +[2597.00 --> 2598.04] how much they love it +[2598.04 --> 2599.60] and how easy it is to use +[2599.60 --> 2600.98] compared to WordPress +[2600.98 --> 2602.50] or other services like that. +[2602.58 --> 2603.60] You can set up a portfolio, +[2603.94 --> 2604.86] you can set up a blog, +[2605.12 --> 2606.64] you can set up even a web store, +[2606.74 --> 2608.22] so they have an e-commerce module, +[2608.56 --> 2609.36] and it's all, +[2609.80 --> 2611.36] compared to actually coding +[2611.36 --> 2612.52] a website from scratch, +[2612.58 --> 2614.36] it's basically drag and drop +[2614.36 --> 2615.42] to the point where +[2615.42 --> 2616.80] our designer did +[2616.80 --> 2618.00] LinusMediaGroup.com +[2618.00 --> 2619.60] as opposed to having him +[2619.60 --> 2621.28] do LinusMediaGroup.com. +[2621.28 --> 2621.84] So, +[2622.08 --> 2623.42] they've got their logo designer, +[2623.84 --> 2625.18] they've got their tech support, +[2625.36 --> 2625.92] they've got the fact +[2625.92 --> 2626.88] that it's easy to use, +[2627.14 --> 2628.24] and the fact that +[2628.24 --> 2629.66] you can just hit it +[2629.66 --> 2630.48] as hard as you want, +[2630.66 --> 2631.66] and the plans are very, +[2631.76 --> 2632.24] very scalable, +[2632.46 --> 2633.32] and they don't go down. +[2633.46 --> 2633.68] So, +[2634.04 --> 2634.62] there you go, guys. +[2634.66 --> 2635.54] Squarespace.com. +[2635.60 --> 2636.68] We absolutely love it, +[2636.96 --> 2638.38] and the discount, +[2638.50 --> 2639.06] 10%, +[2639.06 --> 2639.48] yes, +[2639.60 --> 2640.60] it is just a number. +[2643.40 --> 2643.84] Thanks, +[2643.94 --> 2644.18] Squarespace. +[2644.44 --> 2645.48] We appreciate you guys. +[2645.56 --> 2646.18] We love you, +[2646.44 --> 2647.68] and inside joke +[2647.68 --> 2648.80] for whoever from Squarespace +[2648.80 --> 2651.18] is watching this, +[2651.28 --> 2653.46] right now. +[2662.40 --> 2663.64] I think that's pretty much +[2663.64 --> 2664.76] the end of the joke there. +[2664.84 --> 2664.94] So, +[2665.02 --> 2666.18] let's move on to our next, +[2666.18 --> 2667.84] our next monster message. +[2667.94 --> 2668.42] You weren't there. +[2668.44 --> 2669.44] I have no idea +[2669.44 --> 2670.22] what just happened. +[2670.30 --> 2671.30] Total inside joke. +[2671.32 --> 2671.60] Okay. +[2672.18 --> 2672.62] He's gonna, +[2672.68 --> 2673.70] he's gonna freak out. +[2674.46 --> 2675.30] He's gonna be like, +[2675.38 --> 2675.52] dude, +[2675.58 --> 2675.82] really? +[2675.82 --> 2676.82] Okay, +[2677.56 --> 2680.30] so the Asus G750JZ. +[2680.46 --> 2682.24] As far as gaming laptops +[2682.24 --> 2683.92] goes with Go, +[2684.18 --> 2685.26] without getting into +[2685.26 --> 2686.28] the ones that are, +[2686.34 --> 2686.56] like, +[2686.64 --> 2687.28] so thick, +[2687.38 --> 2687.98] they legitimately +[2687.98 --> 2689.60] don't fit into backpacks. +[2689.66 --> 2690.08] In fact, +[2690.34 --> 2691.20] I actually have +[2691.20 --> 2693.06] Asus's purpose-built, +[2693.12 --> 2693.92] what did I just drop? +[2694.50 --> 2695.46] Hopefully nothing important. +[2696.12 --> 2696.40] Nope. +[2696.40 --> 2698.44] So I have Asus's purpose-made +[2698.44 --> 2699.42] ROG laptop +[2699.42 --> 2700.46] that actually goes +[2700.46 --> 2701.88] with the G750JZ, +[2702.00 --> 2703.14] or any other similar +[2703.14 --> 2704.40] Asus gaming notebook +[2704.40 --> 2705.16] that's also, +[2705.60 --> 2706.42] well, +[2706.56 --> 2707.00] this size. +[2707.50 --> 2708.88] Where was I going with this? +[2709.02 --> 2709.22] Right, +[2709.32 --> 2709.52] yes, +[2709.58 --> 2709.80] so, +[2710.04 --> 2710.98] it's the gaming laptop +[2710.98 --> 2712.16] that without going into +[2712.16 --> 2713.70] kind of the ludicrous specs +[2713.70 --> 2714.94] is pretty much as good +[2714.94 --> 2715.62] as you can get. +[2716.00 --> 2716.40] It's got... +[2716.40 --> 2717.40] I got... +[2717.40 --> 2718.54] Why are you just +[2718.54 --> 2719.66] listing off rappers? +[2720.56 --> 2720.84] Oh, +[2720.90 --> 2722.08] I didn't even mean to. +[2724.44 --> 2726.12] I was doing so good. +[2727.52 --> 2729.04] I will give you 50 cents +[2729.04 --> 2729.66] to go away. +[2733.06 --> 2733.82] I'm sorry, +[2733.96 --> 2734.40] I had to. +[2735.02 --> 2735.32] Oh, +[2735.32 --> 2735.72] man. +[2735.72 --> 2735.82] Oh, +[2735.82 --> 2736.26] man. +[2736.34 --> 2737.72] I was doing so good, +[2737.80 --> 2738.92] and then he said ludicrous, +[2739.00 --> 2739.76] and I was just like, +[2739.86 --> 2740.14] boom. +[2740.14 --> 2742.62] You've completely derailed me. +[2744.30 --> 2744.66] Okay, +[2745.14 --> 2745.52] so, +[2745.52 --> 2747.50] I'm trying to talk about +[2747.50 --> 2748.56] this laptop here. +[2748.66 --> 2748.78] So, +[2748.86 --> 2749.92] without getting into the ones +[2749.92 --> 2751.08] that are absolutely crazy, +[2751.18 --> 2752.02] run crazy hot, +[2752.08 --> 2752.96] and get like 30 minutes +[2752.96 --> 2753.80] of battery life, +[2754.12 --> 2755.30] the G750JZ +[2755.30 --> 2756.34] is about as powerful +[2756.34 --> 2757.10] as you can get. +[2757.20 --> 2758.26] The onboard graphics, +[2758.56 --> 2758.72] I mean, +[2758.80 --> 2758.98] okay, +[2759.02 --> 2759.60] I shouldn't say onboard. +[2759.70 --> 2760.64] The built-in graphics +[2760.64 --> 2762.76] are a GTX 880M, +[2762.84 --> 2763.52] which is actually +[2763.52 --> 2764.28] about equivalent +[2764.28 --> 2766.80] to a GTX 770 desktop card, +[2766.98 --> 2768.36] and then the onboard CPU, +[2768.72 --> 2769.54] onboard CPU, +[2769.54 --> 2770.32] why am I even saying +[2770.32 --> 2770.76] these things? +[2770.86 --> 2771.18] You just, +[2771.66 --> 2772.28] you threw me +[2772.28 --> 2773.18] for a loop here. +[2773.18 --> 2775.92] I was doing so good. +[2776.00 --> 2776.90] I lifted up my laptop, +[2777.02 --> 2777.80] I put it back down, +[2777.98 --> 2778.80] I sat here, +[2778.92 --> 2779.32] I just like, +[2779.38 --> 2780.28] looked around in the background, +[2780.60 --> 2781.50] and then ludicrous. +[2781.54 --> 2781.72] Alright, +[2781.80 --> 2781.90] well, +[2781.94 --> 2782.94] I'm just gonna have to +[2782.94 --> 2784.04] make my way through this +[2784.04 --> 2785.06] as best I can here. +[2785.14 --> 2785.28] So, +[2785.34 --> 2786.60] the cooling is fantastic, +[2787.00 --> 2788.20] good enough that we can actually +[2788.20 --> 2789.10] run these laptops +[2789.10 --> 2790.30] on our laps, +[2790.64 --> 2790.90] and you- +[2790.90 --> 2791.26] Wow, +[2791.38 --> 2793.36] I just got the 50 cent reference. +[2793.36 --> 2796.18] I didn't get it till now. +[2796.18 --> 2796.24] I didn't get it till now. +[2808.24 --> 2809.08] Oh, +[2810.04 --> 2810.66] that was good. +[2811.26 --> 2811.66] Okay. +[2812.16 --> 2812.56] Okay. +[2813.08 --> 2813.76] Can we, +[2813.90 --> 2815.32] do we have our composure? +[2815.72 --> 2815.88] Yeah. +[2816.72 --> 2817.60] Okay. +[2818.10 --> 2818.94] Alright. +[2819.68 --> 2820.42] This laptop +[2820.42 --> 2821.94] is very powerful. +[2821.94 --> 2823.28] It's portable, +[2823.68 --> 2824.62] it's fast, +[2824.76 --> 2826.04] it runs really cool, +[2826.40 --> 2827.26] it's high quality +[2827.26 --> 2828.46] because it's made by Asus, +[2828.58 --> 2830.22] it's got a great overall +[2830.22 --> 2831.26] fit and finish to it. +[2831.32 --> 2832.34] We found that it's great +[2832.34 --> 2833.24] for video editing, +[2833.58 --> 2834.74] it's great for gaming, +[2835.06 --> 2836.68] it has a surprisingly +[2836.68 --> 2839.12] excellent price to performance ratio +[2839.12 --> 2841.38] compared to thin and light gaming notebooks, +[2841.56 --> 2843.06] and even compared to a desktop. +[2843.32 --> 2844.60] It's not as far off +[2844.60 --> 2846.72] as we've traditionally seen in the past. +[2846.72 --> 2849.28] You should check out the G750JZ +[2849.28 --> 2850.60] if you need something +[2850.60 --> 2851.08] that is, +[2851.40 --> 2852.80] while not super thin and light, +[2853.12 --> 2853.82] still portable, +[2854.12 --> 2854.72] and will deliver +[2854.72 --> 2856.54] a truly great gaming experience. +[2856.96 --> 2857.16] I mean, +[2857.20 --> 2857.86] we were able to run +[2857.86 --> 2859.20] Bioshock Infinite on Ultra, +[2859.44 --> 2859.96] you were able to run +[2859.96 --> 2860.60] pretty much everything +[2860.60 --> 2861.26] you threw at it. +[2861.32 --> 2861.50] Yeah, +[2861.54 --> 2861.80] actually. +[2862.12 --> 2863.34] Desktop grade specs. +[2863.34 --> 2865.30] I did find normal benchmarking sets +[2865.30 --> 2866.46] for good graphics cards, +[2866.64 --> 2867.54] so maximum everything, +[2867.64 --> 2867.78] essentially. +[2867.78 --> 2867.92] Yeah, +[2868.12 --> 2868.28] like, +[2868.50 --> 2870.42] Luke has different presets +[2870.42 --> 2871.48] for the games, +[2871.58 --> 2872.86] depending on what kind of a tier +[2872.86 --> 2874.10] of product we're running. +[2874.10 --> 2875.96] And so we were able to run +[2875.96 --> 2876.46] all of the, +[2876.46 --> 2876.62] like, +[2876.74 --> 2878.16] enthusiast class tiers, +[2878.52 --> 2880.08] and without the laptop, +[2880.60 --> 2882.78] something to tiers. +[2883.02 --> 2884.10] I'm missing the word there. +[2884.68 --> 2885.70] Bursting into tiers. +[2885.84 --> 2885.98] Yeah, yeah. +[2886.26 --> 2887.04] Although that would be, +[2887.04 --> 2887.24] like, +[2887.32 --> 2888.10] water-cooled. +[2889.98 --> 2891.14] Next level laptops, +[2891.24 --> 2892.02] they burst into tiers +[2892.02 --> 2892.54] when you put them +[2892.54 --> 2893.38] under performance. +[2893.50 --> 2894.32] We need the snacks +[2894.32 --> 2895.00] on this show. +[2895.32 --> 2896.10] Do you have any M&M's? +[2896.44 --> 2897.16] No, actually. +[2898.44 --> 2898.88] Aww. +[2898.88 --> 2899.12] Aww. +[2899.78 --> 2901.04] Ha ha ha ha ha. +[2902.36 --> 2903.42] Ha ha ha. +[2903.42 --> 2904.54] I was like, +[2904.60 --> 2904.78] what? +[2904.82 --> 2905.42] Of course not. +[2905.48 --> 2905.80] Ah. +[2906.80 --> 2907.96] Oh my goodness. +[2908.74 --> 2909.14] Aww. +[2909.96 --> 2910.84] Yeah, okay. +[2911.02 --> 2912.64] I was actually trying. +[2912.74 --> 2912.96] I was like, +[2913.00 --> 2914.86] I didn't prep my Jay-Z joke +[2914.86 --> 2915.32] this week, +[2915.52 --> 2916.18] which, like, +[2916.24 --> 2917.06] needed some prep, +[2917.32 --> 2917.74] so I was like, +[2917.78 --> 2918.64] I'll just let him go, +[2918.76 --> 2919.46] and this week will be +[2919.46 --> 2920.12] a calm week, +[2920.18 --> 2920.52] and then, +[2920.60 --> 2920.84] nope, +[2921.10 --> 2921.72] not at all. +[2922.32 --> 2922.92] Not at all. +[2922.92 --> 2923.88] He said ludicrous. +[2925.06 --> 2926.50] I didn't even mean to +[2926.50 --> 2927.28] on that one. +[2927.38 --> 2927.74] I know, I know. +[2927.80 --> 2929.34] I didn't even think of it. +[2929.90 --> 2931.34] That wasn't even the spelling +[2931.34 --> 2932.42] that was in my head. +[2932.52 --> 2933.36] No, nope. +[2934.22 --> 2934.68] All right, +[2934.74 --> 2935.98] so posted on the forum +[2935.98 --> 2937.00] by someone. +[2937.14 --> 2937.30] Anyway, +[2937.40 --> 2938.08] this is an article +[2938.08 --> 2938.88] from Anantek. +[2939.18 --> 2940.70] The Shield gets Portal +[2940.70 --> 2942.12] and Half-Life 2, +[2942.54 --> 2943.08] which, uh, +[2943.08 --> 2943.24] here, +[2943.32 --> 2943.98] if you want to run +[2943.98 --> 2944.76] through this with everyone, +[2944.86 --> 2945.68] I'm going to go get +[2945.68 --> 2946.42] the, like, +[2946.54 --> 2947.92] epic NVIDIA swag +[2947.92 --> 2948.98] that they sent over here. +[2949.10 --> 2950.04] Where is it? +[2950.20 --> 2950.80] Find it. +[2950.88 --> 2951.22] It's a little bit +[2951.22 --> 2951.82] higher up there. +[2951.88 --> 2952.36] I don't think there's +[2952.36 --> 2953.48] really actually that much +[2953.48 --> 2954.08] to say. +[2954.28 --> 2954.86] We can talk about +[2954.86 --> 2955.84] how amazing it is. +[2956.08 --> 2956.28] Yeah, +[2956.38 --> 2957.56] it's kind of awesome. +[2957.70 --> 2958.38] I really appreciate +[2958.38 --> 2959.04] that they're bringing +[2959.04 --> 2960.42] this back +[2960.42 --> 2961.18] because, honestly, +[2961.38 --> 2963.10] it's been a really long time +[2963.10 --> 2963.96] since it came out, +[2964.02 --> 2964.66] so you could probably +[2964.66 --> 2965.38] play it again +[2965.38 --> 2966.50] and it would be totally fine. +[2966.88 --> 2968.00] And having it on the shield +[2968.00 --> 2968.72] is definitely something +[2968.72 --> 2969.20] where you could just +[2969.20 --> 2970.04] play it while you're, like, +[2971.10 --> 2971.78] going to bed. +[2971.78 --> 2972.64] And it's not actually +[2972.64 --> 2973.36] that big of a deal. +[2973.86 --> 2974.72] If you get Portal +[2974.72 --> 2975.74] and Half-Life 2 together, +[2975.86 --> 2977.38] it's about $10 on Android, +[2977.52 --> 2978.88] which is actually awesome +[2978.88 --> 2979.54] because that's about +[2979.54 --> 2980.34] the same price as they +[2980.34 --> 2981.00] are on Steam, +[2981.22 --> 2982.22] which is fantastic. +[2983.82 --> 2985.16] This is just way too cool. +[2985.24 --> 2985.86] We have to show this, +[2986.00 --> 2986.44] like, now. +[2986.68 --> 2987.32] Yeah, I know, right? +[2987.40 --> 2988.36] I was so stoked +[2988.36 --> 2989.04] when this came in. +[2989.10 --> 2989.68] I guess he's got to +[2989.68 --> 2990.28] get hooked up first. +[2990.96 --> 2992.12] When it first launched, +[2992.16 --> 2994.60] it ran on an ATI-X800 Pro +[2994.60 --> 2995.60] or, uh, +[2995.68 --> 2996.38] slash XT +[2996.38 --> 2998.42] or NVIDIA 6800 Ultra +[2998.42 --> 2999.10] or GT. +[2999.62 --> 3000.86] And that Tegra 4 chip +[3000.86 --> 3001.76] should theoretically +[3001.76 --> 3002.28] be faster. +[3002.64 --> 3003.26] That's incredible. +[3003.44 --> 3004.76] And that's not even +[3004.76 --> 3005.78] Tegra K1 yet. +[3006.26 --> 3007.22] And Tegra K1 +[3007.22 --> 3007.82] is, like, +[3007.90 --> 3008.86] right around the corner. +[3009.06 --> 3009.82] Yeah, they're already +[3009.82 --> 3011.18] leaking stuff for Shield 2, +[3011.26 --> 3012.06] which will be running it. +[3012.22 --> 3013.62] Which is extremely exciting. +[3013.74 --> 3014.52] So we're at the point +[3014.52 --> 3015.74] where NVIDIA +[3015.74 --> 3016.84] has done a lot +[3016.84 --> 3017.66] of gum-flapping +[3017.66 --> 3019.40] about, you know, +[3019.52 --> 3020.62] console-grade gaming +[3020.62 --> 3022.00] experience on mobile. +[3022.58 --> 3023.82] But you look at +[3023.82 --> 3024.88] how long they've been +[3024.88 --> 3025.40] at this. +[3025.48 --> 3026.12] Like, ever since +[3026.12 --> 3026.76] the whole, +[3026.92 --> 3028.14] the original Tegra +[3028.14 --> 3029.00] and the Tegra 2, +[3029.10 --> 3029.62] they've been saying, +[3029.94 --> 3030.54] look, this is where +[3030.54 --> 3031.34] we're trying to get to. +[3031.76 --> 3034.22] It's actually +[3034.22 --> 3034.74] kind of cool. +[3034.80 --> 3036.02] It's actually happening. +[3036.22 --> 3036.46] Yep. +[3037.02 --> 3038.06] It's actually happening. +[3038.12 --> 3038.88] And Half-Life 2 +[3038.88 --> 3039.66] is finally, +[3039.86 --> 3040.60] like, Half-Life 2, +[3040.72 --> 3041.12] Portal 2, +[3041.20 --> 3041.70] this kind of stuff, +[3042.02 --> 3042.74] they're actually games +[3042.74 --> 3043.32] that I really +[3043.32 --> 3044.22] legitimately want to +[3044.22 --> 3044.92] play on the device. +[3044.92 --> 3045.98] I mean, the funny thing +[3045.98 --> 3046.92] is, as soon as I heard +[3046.92 --> 3047.44] the announcement +[3047.44 --> 3048.26] that Portal 2 +[3048.26 --> 3049.20] was going to be coming, +[3049.48 --> 3050.98] I think two days prior +[3050.98 --> 3052.00] I had finished playing +[3052.00 --> 3053.12] Portal using GameStream. +[3053.32 --> 3054.04] Yeah, yeah, yeah. +[3054.08 --> 3054.94] It's like, so yeah, +[3055.02 --> 3055.96] I just played through, +[3056.02 --> 3056.92] I played through +[3056.92 --> 3057.88] the entire game +[3057.88 --> 3058.92] on my Shield +[3058.92 --> 3059.76] with GameStream. +[3059.88 --> 3060.38] And it was awesome. +[3060.38 --> 3060.72] It was fine, right? +[3060.80 --> 3061.80] Yeah, you didn't have +[3061.80 --> 3062.44] any downsides. +[3062.44 --> 3063.38] Didn't have any issues. +[3063.84 --> 3064.32] But anyway. +[3064.38 --> 3064.88] It was so cool. +[3064.96 --> 3065.58] Okay, so this, +[3065.70 --> 3066.70] this was sent to us +[3066.70 --> 3067.32] from NVIDIA. +[3067.44 --> 3068.28] They hadn't, like, +[3068.38 --> 3069.54] given us any preparation +[3069.54 --> 3071.70] for what it was +[3071.70 --> 3072.04] going to have +[3072.04 --> 3072.78] anything to do with. +[3072.84 --> 3073.60] So it's basically +[3073.60 --> 3076.42] just a painted crowbar. +[3076.98 --> 3077.80] It came in, like, +[3077.84 --> 3079.08] this enormous box +[3079.08 --> 3079.98] with way too much +[3079.98 --> 3081.52] anti-static bubble packaging. +[3081.80 --> 3082.02] Yeah. +[3082.02 --> 3083.32] I guess when you're NVIDIA, +[3083.46 --> 3084.10] the only packaging +[3084.10 --> 3084.96] you really have +[3084.96 --> 3085.64] is anti-static. +[3086.64 --> 3087.62] But there you go. +[3087.80 --> 3088.20] So it's a +[3088.20 --> 3089.12] What Would Gordon Do +[3089.12 --> 3090.68] crowbar with a Half-Life 2 +[3090.68 --> 3093.00] Lambda and an NVIDIA +[3093.00 --> 3094.04] Shield logo on it. +[3094.04 --> 3095.42] So this is freaking cool. +[3095.76 --> 3096.60] This will definitely +[3096.60 --> 3097.92] live on the wall of epic +[3097.92 --> 3098.86] that we need to recreate +[3098.86 --> 3099.54] back here because +[3099.54 --> 3100.76] we seriously need to +[3100.76 --> 3101.62] redo the Land Show set. +[3101.62 --> 3102.12] Oh, definitely. +[3102.42 --> 3103.44] It's absolutely horrible. +[3103.44 --> 3104.38] That's one of the +[3104.38 --> 3105.40] coolest pieces of swag +[3105.40 --> 3106.74] I've, like, ever seen. +[3106.82 --> 3106.98] Yeah. +[3107.16 --> 3107.76] 100%. +[3107.76 --> 3109.08] Pretty, pretty amazing. +[3109.08 --> 3109.90] Whoever thought +[3109.90 --> 3110.86] that was a good idea +[3110.86 --> 3112.62] was on the money. +[3112.70 --> 3113.82] Was not stupid. +[3114.02 --> 3114.34] Nope. +[3114.74 --> 3115.10] Yay! +[3115.22 --> 3115.66] Yay! +[3115.84 --> 3116.48] Good job! +[3117.12 --> 3118.60] The Better Than Useless Award. +[3118.78 --> 3119.82] The Not Stupid Award. +[3120.12 --> 3121.00] That should be the only +[3121.00 --> 3122.36] award that we can +[3122.36 --> 3123.10] possibly give out. +[3123.10 --> 3124.12] We should never have +[3124.12 --> 3125.12] any other awards +[3125.12 --> 3125.78] other than +[3125.78 --> 3126.66] Better Than Worthless. +[3126.82 --> 3127.90] Better Than Worthless. +[3128.10 --> 3129.00] Or Better Than +[3129.00 --> 3129.70] Better Than All +[3129.70 --> 3130.72] the Terrible Words. +[3130.84 --> 3131.26] Yeah, yeah. +[3131.32 --> 3131.74] So we can just +[3131.74 --> 3132.48] change whenever +[3132.48 --> 3133.52] but it's essentially +[3133.52 --> 3134.10] the same idea. +[3134.12 --> 3135.20] Better Than Putting Nails +[3135.20 --> 3135.90] in My Eye. +[3138.70 --> 3140.14] Okay, so this article +[3140.14 --> 3141.06] from Digital Journal. +[3141.18 --> 3141.74] Honestly, it's not +[3141.74 --> 3142.34] the best article +[3142.34 --> 3143.10] I've ever read. +[3143.52 --> 3144.14] And, uh, +[3144.18 --> 3144.76] I don't know. +[3144.82 --> 3145.54] Like, I hate to +[3145.54 --> 3147.06] generalize about people +[3147.06 --> 3148.16] but, like, +[3148.54 --> 3149.22] this author +[3149.22 --> 3150.32] needs a better portrait. +[3150.86 --> 3151.86] James, if you're watching, +[3152.22 --> 3154.34] dude, please. +[3154.76 --> 3155.60] Like, it's like +[3155.60 --> 3156.36] selfie bad. +[3157.08 --> 3157.62] And it's like +[3157.62 --> 3158.60] selfie, like, +[3158.66 --> 3159.26] it looks like he took it +[3159.26 --> 3159.76] on his webcam +[3159.76 --> 3160.48] because you can see +[3160.48 --> 3161.36] his screens reflected +[3161.36 --> 3162.14] in his eyeglasses. +[3162.40 --> 3162.68] Yeah. +[3163.10 --> 3163.76] It's just like... +[3163.76 --> 3164.66] Yeah, he must have too. +[3164.84 --> 3165.52] Yeah, no, see? +[3165.64 --> 3166.24] You can see, yeah. +[3166.28 --> 3167.64] And like a really old +[3167.64 --> 3168.54] kind of crappy +[3168.54 --> 3169.40] laptop webcam. +[3169.88 --> 3170.86] Yeah, so James, +[3171.02 --> 3172.18] please, please fix that. +[3172.18 --> 3173.30] Um, I mean, +[3173.34 --> 3174.80] it's not that bad. +[3174.98 --> 3175.50] But, uh, +[3175.50 --> 3175.92] basically, +[3176.22 --> 3177.50] the point of the article, +[3177.80 --> 3178.38] which is, +[3178.68 --> 3179.10] you know, like, +[3179.18 --> 3180.40] it's actually pretty thorough +[3180.40 --> 3181.40] for all of my, +[3181.46 --> 3182.18] for all of my criticisms, +[3182.44 --> 3183.70] is that the NSA +[3183.70 --> 3185.34] and GCHQ +[3185.34 --> 3187.48] are working on Tor, +[3188.08 --> 3188.52] basically. +[3188.72 --> 3189.18] Yeah, yeah. +[3189.22 --> 3190.40] And it is not +[3190.40 --> 3191.98] as impenetrable +[3191.98 --> 3193.30] as some people +[3193.30 --> 3194.30] would like to believe. +[3194.38 --> 3195.28] The main way +[3195.28 --> 3196.16] that they are getting +[3196.16 --> 3196.86] at your data +[3196.86 --> 3198.00] and tracking you +[3198.00 --> 3199.56] is through browser plugins, +[3199.88 --> 3201.36] which still work with Tor. +[3201.36 --> 3203.34] So, things like Flash +[3203.34 --> 3204.10] and Java +[3204.10 --> 3205.28] that are well known +[3205.28 --> 3206.28] to have vulnerabilities +[3206.28 --> 3210.22] that just are gaping. +[3210.38 --> 3210.74] That being, +[3210.90 --> 3212.34] that being said, +[3212.42 --> 3212.82] a lot of people +[3212.82 --> 3213.20] that I know +[3213.20 --> 3213.96] that try and set up +[3213.96 --> 3214.80] secure setups +[3214.80 --> 3215.88] that aren't running +[3215.88 --> 3217.02] Java or Flash +[3217.02 --> 3217.78] and they're running +[3217.78 --> 3218.26] a combination +[3218.26 --> 3218.82] of other things. +[3218.90 --> 3219.30] Like, there's, +[3219.40 --> 3220.30] you have to have +[3220.30 --> 3221.76] a whole suite of things. +[3221.76 --> 3221.96] Well, yeah. +[3222.22 --> 3222.74] And the thing is +[3222.74 --> 3224.46] that most of the community +[3224.46 --> 3225.94] that was using Tor already +[3225.94 --> 3227.90] probably is doing that, +[3228.00 --> 3228.90] but we're talking about +[3228.90 --> 3230.40] more mainstream people +[3230.40 --> 3230.86] No, exactly. +[3230.86 --> 3231.92] hearing about Tor +[3231.92 --> 3232.68] and kind of going, +[3232.78 --> 3233.80] oh, but I still want +[3233.80 --> 3234.88] to watch my YouTube videos. +[3235.08 --> 3237.32] So, da-da-da-da-da. +[3237.36 --> 3238.08] If you're unsure +[3238.08 --> 3239.18] about all that kind of stuff, +[3239.48 --> 3240.48] look it up. +[3240.58 --> 3241.16] There's guides +[3241.16 --> 3241.74] on how to, like, +[3241.82 --> 3243.06] properly set up your browser +[3243.06 --> 3244.22] if you want to be anonymous. +[3244.72 --> 3245.46] And it's still, +[3245.64 --> 3246.80] you're still at a huge amount +[3246.80 --> 3247.16] of risk, +[3247.28 --> 3248.46] but it's going to be +[3248.46 --> 3249.06] a lot better +[3249.06 --> 3250.14] than just running Tor. +[3250.32 --> 3251.30] So, the Tor network +[3251.30 --> 3252.68] has not been cracked, +[3252.94 --> 3254.36] but there are +[3254.36 --> 3255.64] an increasing number +[3255.64 --> 3258.08] of sites that are being hijacked, +[3258.42 --> 3259.48] dot-dot-union sites +[3259.48 --> 3260.44] that are being hijacked +[3260.44 --> 3261.70] by law enforcement agencies +[3261.70 --> 3263.50] and recording details +[3263.50 --> 3264.28] of people +[3264.28 --> 3265.66] that are visiting the sites +[3265.66 --> 3266.30] and sending them +[3266.30 --> 3266.82] to the NSA. +[3267.76 --> 3269.42] So, there you go, guys. +[3269.90 --> 3270.88] He, uh... +[3270.88 --> 3271.08] Hmm. +[3271.52 --> 3271.66] Hmm. +[3272.52 --> 3272.96] Yeah. +[3272.96 --> 3274.88] So, you're not safe anywhere. +[3275.92 --> 3276.74] I'm beginning to think +[3276.74 --> 3277.48] that my, like, +[3277.56 --> 3279.08] technophobe sister +[3279.08 --> 3279.94] might have been right +[3279.94 --> 3280.68] about all of this. +[3281.20 --> 3281.80] Like, she just, +[3282.02 --> 3282.88] she didn't even want +[3282.88 --> 3283.44] a smartphone, +[3283.82 --> 3284.90] she doesn't want a computer, +[3285.50 --> 3286.00] she's just like, +[3286.06 --> 3286.68] nope, pen and paper. +[3287.42 --> 3287.76] I was, +[3287.86 --> 3288.70] when I was doing research +[3288.70 --> 3289.40] for that video +[3289.40 --> 3290.74] that I'm working on right now, +[3290.98 --> 3292.08] I ran into something +[3292.08 --> 3292.80] and I started asking +[3292.80 --> 3293.54] questions about it +[3293.54 --> 3293.86] and I was like, +[3293.88 --> 3294.96] I feel like a tin hatter +[3294.96 --> 3295.56] when I'm asking +[3295.56 --> 3296.44] a few of these questions, +[3296.60 --> 3296.98] but then, +[3297.62 --> 3298.76] that's probably okay. +[3298.98 --> 3299.24] Yeah. +[3299.94 --> 3300.66] Because of what's +[3300.66 --> 3301.44] been happening lately. +[3301.54 --> 3302.66] That's probably entirely +[3302.66 --> 3303.18] fine. +[3303.70 --> 3304.44] And I might not even +[3304.44 --> 3305.30] be that far off. +[3305.52 --> 3307.06] So, I'm gonna let +[3307.06 --> 3308.00] you handle this. +[3308.14 --> 3308.58] Are you sure? +[3308.70 --> 3308.96] Yeah. +[3309.08 --> 3309.70] I kind of want you +[3309.70 --> 3310.50] to read through part of this. +[3310.52 --> 3311.66] No, I don't really want to. +[3311.74 --> 3312.30] You don't want to read +[3312.30 --> 3312.60] through this? +[3312.62 --> 3313.08] All right, go. +[3313.54 --> 3314.92] Uh, so, Oculus Rift +[3314.92 --> 3316.48] is being used to, +[3316.88 --> 3318.66] or the idea of Oculus Rift +[3318.66 --> 3319.54] is being used to give +[3319.54 --> 3320.98] chickens a free-range +[3320.98 --> 3321.80] style lifestyle. +[3322.40 --> 3323.18] So, they set up +[3323.18 --> 3323.90] an Oculus Rift, +[3323.98 --> 3324.74] mix it in, like, +[3325.02 --> 3326.62] a second-life kind of idea +[3326.62 --> 3327.60] and then they can make +[3327.60 --> 3328.38] the chicken think +[3328.38 --> 3328.90] that even though +[3328.90 --> 3329.94] it's confined into a coop, +[3330.02 --> 3331.42] it actually has a free-range +[3331.42 --> 3333.26] roaming identity. +[3337.90 --> 3338.38] Really? +[3338.48 --> 3339.20] VR for chickens? +[3340.20 --> 3340.92] Like, really? +[3341.40 --> 3342.70] What do you think about this? +[3342.70 --> 3343.88] I think that +[3343.88 --> 3345.38] as concepts go, +[3345.62 --> 3346.68] it seems more like +[3346.68 --> 3347.88] a publicity stunt +[3347.88 --> 3349.34] for VR in general +[3349.34 --> 3351.10] and less of a +[3351.10 --> 3352.28] practical thing. +[3352.68 --> 3352.98] I mean, +[3353.08 --> 3354.56] we are so many +[3354.56 --> 3356.18] bajillion years +[3356.18 --> 3357.20] away from +[3357.20 --> 3359.68] a product like Oculus +[3359.68 --> 3360.96] being able to be +[3360.96 --> 3361.74] miniaturized +[3361.74 --> 3363.20] and costed down enough +[3363.20 --> 3365.14] to put them +[3365.14 --> 3365.80] on chickens. +[3366.32 --> 3366.54] I mean, +[3366.64 --> 3368.70] it's stupid. +[3369.46 --> 3370.86] I want chickens +[3370.86 --> 3371.92] to have good lives, +[3372.12 --> 3373.36] but I don't think +[3373.36 --> 3374.72] VR is the solution. +[3374.94 --> 3375.92] Well, there's two things. +[3376.14 --> 3377.08] One, I don't think +[3377.08 --> 3377.68] it's actually going to +[3377.68 --> 3378.32] give you the benefits +[3378.32 --> 3378.92] of free-range +[3378.92 --> 3379.60] because they're still +[3379.60 --> 3380.42] confined to the thing. +[3380.42 --> 3381.40] And a lot of free-range +[3381.40 --> 3381.86] stuff is the fact +[3381.86 --> 3382.44] that they can run around +[3382.44 --> 3382.92] and all that kind of stuff. +[3383.20 --> 3383.68] And two, +[3384.04 --> 3385.78] it's not real. +[3386.82 --> 3387.58] Oh, is this fake? +[3387.74 --> 3388.00] Yeah. +[3388.18 --> 3388.46] Okay. +[3388.62 --> 3389.40] The whole point +[3389.40 --> 3390.16] of the article +[3390.16 --> 3391.32] was to see how many +[3391.32 --> 3392.16] people they can convince. +[3392.52 --> 3392.82] Okay. +[3392.88 --> 3393.48] So I thought you had +[3393.48 --> 3394.24] maybe seen that, +[3394.44 --> 3395.42] but I don't think so anymore. +[3395.88 --> 3397.38] But everyone watching, +[3397.78 --> 3399.02] I bet a lot of people +[3399.02 --> 3400.56] actually kind of thought +[3400.56 --> 3401.70] that that was legit. +[3402.44 --> 3403.24] And you know what? +[3403.80 --> 3404.96] It maybe could be, +[3405.02 --> 3406.28] but I read quite a few +[3406.28 --> 3406.96] places that it's not. +[3406.96 --> 3409.96] So, like, yeah. +[3410.14 --> 3411.00] But that's bad. +[3411.08 --> 3411.66] And the fact that +[3411.66 --> 3413.46] that sounds super realistic +[3413.46 --> 3415.26] is really bad. +[3416.80 --> 3418.02] Because imagine how many +[3418.02 --> 3418.94] people you could sell +[3418.94 --> 3420.92] free-range chickens to. +[3424.48 --> 3425.38] Next, they're just going to +[3425.38 --> 3426.32] like strap a TV +[3426.32 --> 3427.26] to the front of the cage +[3427.26 --> 3428.02] and be like, yeah. +[3428.48 --> 3429.02] Free-range. +[3429.02 --> 3429.64] Free-range. +[3429.66 --> 3430.86] It has like a field on it. +[3432.74 --> 3434.00] They can see the field, +[3434.12 --> 3434.74] which makes them think +[3434.74 --> 3435.48] they're in the field. +[3436.58 --> 3436.94] Done. +[3437.60 --> 3437.98] All right. +[3438.08 --> 3439.92] So I actually kind of, +[3440.00 --> 3440.60] well, when we were +[3440.60 --> 3442.66] supposed to have JJ on here, +[3442.76 --> 3443.52] I kind of realized +[3443.52 --> 3444.78] we have, like, +[3445.08 --> 3446.18] barely talked about +[3446.18 --> 3447.52] Intel's new Z97 +[3447.52 --> 3449.14] and H97 chipsets, +[3449.46 --> 3450.62] like, at all. +[3450.82 --> 3451.70] So as usual, +[3451.82 --> 3452.76] Z versus H +[3452.76 --> 3453.72] means that Z is +[3453.72 --> 3454.44] overclockable +[3454.44 --> 3455.84] and H is, uh, +[3455.86 --> 3456.76] not so much. +[3457.16 --> 3458.40] The 9-series chipsets +[3458.40 --> 3459.38] offer increased +[3459.38 --> 3460.36] data transfer speeds +[3460.36 --> 3461.46] for storage drives, +[3461.52 --> 3461.98] now supporting +[3461.98 --> 3463.32] the M.2 specification, +[3463.78 --> 3464.56] allowing them to drive +[3464.56 --> 3466.36] two PCIe 2.0 lanes +[3466.36 --> 3468.00] to the M.2 drive, +[3468.08 --> 3468.72] giving it a total +[3468.72 --> 3469.66] of about one gigabyte +[3469.66 --> 3470.66] per second of bandwidth, +[3470.80 --> 3471.42] compared to +[3471.42 --> 3472.72] about 600 megabytes +[3472.72 --> 3473.68] per second of bandwidth +[3473.68 --> 3476.38] available over SATA 3. +[3477.06 --> 3478.48] Um, okay. +[3478.72 --> 3479.96] The same connectivity options +[3479.96 --> 3480.88] are basically there. +[3480.96 --> 3482.08] So 14 USB ports, +[3482.14 --> 3482.70] six of which can be +[3482.70 --> 3483.50] USB 3, +[3483.82 --> 3484.94] up to six SATA 3, +[3485.20 --> 3485.88] uh, six gig, +[3485.88 --> 3486.88] or six gigabit per se, +[3486.88 --> 3488.68] six gigabit per second ports, +[3489.00 --> 3489.90] an integrated gigabit +[3489.90 --> 3490.80] Ethernet controller, +[3490.80 --> 3493.08] eight PCIe 2.0 lanes. +[3493.20 --> 3493.92] I believe that's all +[3493.92 --> 3494.76] off of the chipset +[3494.76 --> 3495.36] because you have +[3495.36 --> 3496.80] 16 lanes off of the CPU, +[3496.96 --> 3497.98] something along those lines. +[3498.18 --> 3499.16] They have upgraded +[3499.16 --> 3500.38] smart response technology, +[3500.52 --> 3501.22] SRT, +[3501.48 --> 3502.26] so they're supporting +[3502.26 --> 3503.22] hybrid hard drives +[3503.22 --> 3504.42] with integrated flash storage. +[3504.52 --> 3505.08] So previously, +[3505.08 --> 3506.62] the feature required +[3506.62 --> 3507.34] separate hard drives +[3507.34 --> 3507.96] and SSDs +[3507.96 --> 3509.48] on separate connectors. +[3509.70 --> 3510.40] So I think there's +[3510.40 --> 3511.30] one drive +[3511.30 --> 3512.26] to which that's applicable, +[3512.52 --> 3513.06] the, uh, +[3513.28 --> 3514.62] WD Black Squared. +[3514.78 --> 3515.00] Yeah. +[3515.48 --> 3516.22] Um, okay. +[3516.52 --> 3517.08] Broadwell, +[3517.08 --> 3518.48] so new CPUs, +[3518.68 --> 3520.20] like legitimate new CPUs +[3520.20 --> 3520.92] are not coming +[3520.92 --> 3522.42] until sometime next year, +[3522.50 --> 3523.64] probably about a year from now. +[3523.96 --> 3524.76] And those will bring +[3524.76 --> 3525.72] a 30% increase +[3525.72 --> 3526.44] in power efficiency +[3526.44 --> 3527.14] and Z97, +[3527.40 --> 3528.36] at least some of the boards +[3528.36 --> 3529.36] are advertising +[3529.36 --> 3530.60] that they will have support +[3530.60 --> 3531.76] for Broadwell. +[3531.90 --> 3532.42] In the meantime, +[3532.62 --> 3534.00] we get Haswell Refresh +[3534.00 --> 3536.04] as well as Devil's Canyon. +[3536.36 --> 3537.74] So Intel has improved +[3537.74 --> 3539.24] the thermal interface material +[3539.24 --> 3540.06] on the CPUs +[3540.06 --> 3541.06] so that they're gonna run cooler. +[3541.48 --> 3542.90] And the word on the street +[3542.90 --> 3544.22] is that Z97 boards, +[3544.34 --> 3545.50] even before we put +[3545.50 --> 3546.44] overclockable Haswell +[3546.44 --> 3547.56] refresh processors on them, +[3547.62 --> 3548.36] are overclocking +[3548.36 --> 3548.82] a little better +[3548.82 --> 3550.04] and have the CPUs +[3550.04 --> 3550.60] running cooler. +[3551.22 --> 3552.38] And I think that is +[3552.38 --> 3553.54] pretty much it, +[3553.72 --> 3554.44] except, uh, +[3554.44 --> 3555.40] we were supposed to have, +[3555.44 --> 3556.26] we were supposed to have +[3556.26 --> 3557.88] JJ on to talk about this stuff. +[3558.08 --> 3559.30] He's an extremely busy man. +[3559.56 --> 3560.08] I know, no, +[3560.16 --> 3560.94] well, it's, it's true. +[3561.02 --> 3562.08] He's like super crazy. +[3562.26 --> 3563.06] Oh, oh, whoa, +[3563.14 --> 3563.84] hey, there we go. +[3563.92 --> 3564.72] Oh, just, oh, +[3565.50 --> 3566.20] oh, oh, +[3566.20 --> 3567.56] just got back to the office. +[3567.56 --> 3568.22] Out of the office +[3568.22 --> 3569.02] due to an emergency. +[3569.20 --> 3569.64] It took longer +[3569.64 --> 3570.50] at the event location. +[3570.64 --> 3571.54] Just got back into the office. +[3571.62 --> 3571.98] Okay, well, +[3572.28 --> 3573.36] maybe we'll have him join us. +[3573.42 --> 3574.12] I think we've only got +[3574.12 --> 3575.26] about 10, 15 more minutes +[3575.26 --> 3575.92] left on the show. +[3575.92 --> 3577.60] So, guys, uh, you know, +[3577.86 --> 3578.92] maybe what we'll do +[3578.92 --> 3580.32] is we'll have JJ on next week. +[3580.40 --> 3581.96] I can't, I can't say 100% +[3581.96 --> 3582.70] because it'll depend +[3582.70 --> 3583.34] on his scheduling, +[3583.52 --> 3584.22] but I know you guys +[3584.22 --> 3584.92] will probably want to hear +[3584.92 --> 3586.60] from him about, um, +[3587.14 --> 3588.14] what Asus has done +[3588.14 --> 3589.58] that's amazing, uh, +[3589.58 --> 3590.44] in the last little while. +[3590.62 --> 3591.64] That is what you will hear. +[3591.78 --> 3592.76] That is what you will hear. +[3592.88 --> 3594.00] I mean, he's, uh, +[3594.18 --> 3594.98] he's so knowledgeable, +[3594.98 --> 3595.66] so, you know, +[3595.66 --> 3596.48] I look forward to having him +[3596.48 --> 3596.86] on the show. +[3596.92 --> 3597.52] I wish he'd been able +[3597.52 --> 3598.10] to make it this week, +[3598.14 --> 3599.32] but there you go. +[3599.40 --> 3600.38] While you get that loaded up, +[3600.40 --> 3601.36] I have to call out a tweet. +[3601.50 --> 3602.20] Some guy tweeted me, +[3602.20 --> 3602.98] I bet you could get +[3602.98 --> 3604.46] two packs of M&Ms +[3604.46 --> 3605.48] for 50 cents. +[3605.68 --> 3609.92] Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no. +[3610.12 --> 3611.04] That was pretty good. +[3611.22 --> 3612.54] He didn't fit Jay-Z in, though, +[3612.60 --> 3613.44] so, I don't know. +[3613.98 --> 3615.40] He can have three points. +[3616.10 --> 3617.48] Three points, not ten points. +[3617.68 --> 3617.82] Yeah. +[3617.92 --> 3618.96] All right, posted on the forum +[3618.96 --> 3620.18] by Alex Goes High, +[3620.30 --> 3623.72] LG G3 press renders leaked. +[3624.00 --> 3624.92] These look pretty sweet. +[3624.96 --> 3626.92] And then the completely impartial +[3626.92 --> 3628.96] and unbiased headline says, +[3628.96 --> 3631.30] best looking phone of the year. +[3631.30 --> 3633.00] So, here we go. +[3633.82 --> 3636.50] Phone Arena was the original poster. +[3637.04 --> 3637.90] I like the new design +[3637.90 --> 3639.10] of the volume up, down, +[3639.16 --> 3639.86] and power buttons. +[3640.24 --> 3641.24] So, that's back here. +[3641.36 --> 3644.04] Yeah, because the one thing +[3644.04 --> 3644.68] I didn't like about +[3644.68 --> 3645.46] the power button before +[3645.46 --> 3646.66] was it was a strip. +[3647.24 --> 3647.50] Right. +[3647.60 --> 3648.08] Which wasn't, +[3648.16 --> 3649.06] it was fine. +[3649.22 --> 3649.98] Like, it wasn't a big deal. +[3650.04 --> 3651.52] I didn't even bother bring it up +[3651.52 --> 3653.36] because it didn't matter that much, +[3653.44 --> 3654.64] but this does look nicer. +[3654.96 --> 3655.92] So, I, +[3656.14 --> 3657.66] we'll go through these renders. +[3657.66 --> 3658.36] Like, okay, +[3658.54 --> 3659.58] so there's a thing there +[3659.58 --> 3660.70] and there's some stuff. +[3661.46 --> 3661.68] Uh-huh. +[3661.82 --> 3662.74] It reminds you a lot of that, +[3662.80 --> 3663.10] doesn't it? +[3663.30 --> 3663.70] Yeah. +[3664.10 --> 3664.98] And why is everyone +[3664.98 --> 3665.92] doing gold phones? +[3666.50 --> 3666.90] Please stop. +[3666.90 --> 3667.32] Like, can you, +[3667.42 --> 3668.28] can everyone please +[3668.28 --> 3669.82] stop following Apple? +[3670.56 --> 3672.04] Like, what makes Apple a leader? +[3672.46 --> 3673.50] The fact that everyone +[3673.50 --> 3674.32] follows them. +[3676.02 --> 3676.42] Wow. +[3677.46 --> 3678.38] Like, and it's, +[3678.40 --> 3679.54] and it's a stupid idea. +[3679.66 --> 3680.92] I'm not being an Apple fanboy +[3680.92 --> 3681.88] by calling them a leader. +[3682.04 --> 3683.42] I think the idea was bad. +[3683.62 --> 3685.26] I think the idea was bad +[3685.26 --> 3686.40] and the people following it +[3686.40 --> 3687.12] should feel bad. +[3687.12 --> 3688.18] That's all I'm trying to say. +[3688.36 --> 3688.86] Gold motherboards. +[3689.48 --> 3690.86] Like, just stop it. +[3691.36 --> 3692.38] Gold is gaudy. +[3692.84 --> 3693.10] Yeah. +[3694.06 --> 3694.66] I'm sorry. +[3695.76 --> 3696.76] People with class +[3696.76 --> 3697.52] wear white gold. +[3697.66 --> 3698.42] Gold is awesome +[3698.42 --> 3699.56] when it comes in, like, +[3699.64 --> 3700.36] everyone, but. +[3700.62 --> 3701.12] A metal. +[3701.70 --> 3702.30] I'm sorry? +[3702.62 --> 3703.26] Gold is awesome +[3703.26 --> 3703.76] when it comes in, like, +[3703.78 --> 3704.14] a metal. +[3704.22 --> 3704.72] Yeah, like, +[3704.72 --> 3705.42] if I had, like, a, +[3705.42 --> 3706.28] if I had, like, a gold, +[3706.28 --> 3707.62] if I had, like, a gold brick +[3707.62 --> 3708.70] or, like, +[3708.90 --> 3709.12] Yeah. +[3709.74 --> 3710.10] something. +[3710.30 --> 3711.36] I can't think of too many +[3711.36 --> 3712.24] other things I would like +[3712.24 --> 3713.48] to actually be yellow gold. +[3713.72 --> 3714.72] Like, some sort of Boolean +[3714.72 --> 3715.52] or a medal +[3715.52 --> 3716.52] or a trophy. +[3716.84 --> 3717.10] Yeah. +[3717.28 --> 3718.18] All of that's super cool. +[3718.18 --> 3719.26] Yeah, trophies should be gold. +[3719.46 --> 3719.68] Yeah. +[3720.88 --> 3722.16] I'll settle for brass. +[3722.26 --> 3723.08] I've never won a trophy +[3723.08 --> 3723.56] in my life, +[3723.60 --> 3724.58] so I'd settle for any trophy, +[3724.66 --> 3725.04] really, but. +[3725.44 --> 3725.98] You know what? +[3726.08 --> 3727.60] I don't know that I agree +[3727.60 --> 3728.32] with the best phone +[3728.32 --> 3728.94] of the year thing +[3728.94 --> 3729.46] because, +[3729.86 --> 3731.58] not because this looks better, +[3731.78 --> 3732.92] but because it looks like +[3732.92 --> 3734.12] the same damn thing. +[3734.52 --> 3736.02] Like, it actually just doesn't +[3736.02 --> 3737.22] really look any different to me. +[3737.44 --> 3738.16] I don't, +[3738.16 --> 3739.66] I don't see the difference. +[3740.16 --> 3740.84] And maybe I'm just +[3740.84 --> 3741.84] not picky enough, +[3742.28 --> 3742.84] but, like, +[3743.42 --> 3744.88] brushed metal back, +[3745.68 --> 3746.20] um, +[3746.58 --> 3747.62] I like how it looks, +[3747.70 --> 3748.62] but you're not wrong. +[3748.86 --> 3749.96] It looks pretty much the same. +[3750.18 --> 3750.54] And, +[3750.82 --> 3751.58] and I would, +[3751.72 --> 3752.88] if everything else is equal, +[3752.96 --> 3753.72] if they're the same price +[3753.72 --> 3754.90] and they basically look the same, +[3755.12 --> 3756.54] front-facing speakers, man, +[3757.04 --> 3758.24] it is such a big deal +[3758.24 --> 3759.06] and it is so disappointing. +[3759.06 --> 3760.18] That was one of my complaints +[3760.18 --> 3760.86] about the G3 +[3760.86 --> 3761.70] is if I held it +[3761.70 --> 3763.22] in the right particular way, +[3764.08 --> 3764.26] sorry? +[3764.46 --> 3764.78] G2. +[3765.14 --> 3766.08] G2, sorry, yeah, yeah. +[3766.12 --> 3767.08] If I held it in the right +[3767.08 --> 3768.30] or wrong way, +[3768.40 --> 3769.38] it would cover up the speakers +[3769.38 --> 3770.82] and essentially manually +[3770.82 --> 3771.44] mute the phone. +[3771.60 --> 3771.74] Yeah. +[3771.84 --> 3772.82] Because I would be covering up +[3772.82 --> 3773.10] the speakers +[3773.10 --> 3773.88] and I couldn't hear it anymore. +[3774.02 --> 3774.70] It was kind of annoying. +[3775.04 --> 3775.28] Yeah. +[3775.44 --> 3777.02] And another ergonomic thing +[3777.02 --> 3778.06] that people might not necessarily +[3778.06 --> 3778.82] agree with me about, +[3778.94 --> 3780.28] but it's that I don't like +[3780.28 --> 3781.20] bottom-mounted +[3781.20 --> 3782.22] headphone jacks anymore. +[3782.50 --> 3783.82] I complained about this +[3783.82 --> 3785.02] in my 1M8 review, +[3785.12 --> 3786.48] but I actually didn't properly +[3786.48 --> 3787.86] explain what I don't like about it. +[3787.86 --> 3789.46] Like I said... +[3789.46 --> 3790.14] The car thing, right? +[3790.20 --> 3790.42] Sorry? +[3790.68 --> 3791.48] Is it the car thing? +[3791.56 --> 3791.98] Car thing? +[3792.50 --> 3794.46] Because you put your phone in... +[3794.46 --> 3795.50] Oh, that's another reason, +[3795.58 --> 3795.98] but no, that wasn't... +[3795.98 --> 3797.12] I don't like it because of cars +[3797.12 --> 3798.18] because if you plug your stuff +[3798.18 --> 3798.68] in the bottom +[3798.68 --> 3799.42] and you try and put it +[3799.42 --> 3799.92] in a cup holder. +[3800.14 --> 3801.32] Oh, that's another good point. +[3801.42 --> 3801.56] Oh. +[3801.90 --> 3803.30] Okay, no, I was talking about +[3803.30 --> 3804.40] what's more natural for me +[3804.40 --> 3805.28] to put it in my pocket +[3805.28 --> 3807.02] so that I'm not putting +[3807.02 --> 3807.86] strain on the connector. +[3808.92 --> 3810.58] And so, and not just that, +[3811.02 --> 3812.04] but that, because that, +[3812.12 --> 3812.78] you could train yourself +[3812.78 --> 3813.36] one way or the other, +[3813.50 --> 3814.32] but I like to have it +[3814.32 --> 3815.24] right side up in my pocket +[3815.24 --> 3815.88] so I can pull it out +[3815.88 --> 3816.26] of my pocket +[3816.26 --> 3817.02] and glance at it. +[3817.02 --> 3817.48] Oh, okay. +[3817.68 --> 3818.82] And then the other thing +[3818.82 --> 3820.32] that I didn't explain very well +[3820.32 --> 3822.14] is that if you have something +[3822.14 --> 3823.08] plugged into the bottom +[3823.08 --> 3823.68] of the phone +[3823.68 --> 3824.44] and you're using it +[3824.44 --> 3825.10] right side up, +[3825.12 --> 3825.98] it's kind of in your way. +[3826.52 --> 3828.12] And not so much on the 1M8 +[3828.12 --> 3828.86] if you're right-handed +[3828.86 --> 3830.62] because it could kind of +[3830.62 --> 3831.26] come down here, +[3831.44 --> 3833.08] but using the iPhone 5S, +[3833.16 --> 3834.58] something I forgot to include +[3834.58 --> 3835.26] in my review, +[3835.88 --> 3837.18] where it's on the left, +[3837.80 --> 3839.46] it sits right under my pinky. +[3840.20 --> 3841.06] So when I'm typing, +[3841.44 --> 3842.98] it's like right in the way, +[3843.50 --> 3844.50] especially if you have +[3844.50 --> 3845.48] a right angle connector +[3845.48 --> 3846.42] on your headphones +[3846.42 --> 3847.40] just like I do. +[3847.72 --> 3848.56] Yeah, which isn't +[3848.56 --> 3849.18] that uncommon. +[3849.38 --> 3850.24] Both of these have it, +[3850.40 --> 3850.84] actually. +[3851.38 --> 3851.48] Yeah. +[3852.82 --> 3853.86] Sony's CEO +[3853.86 --> 3855.04] and executives +[3855.04 --> 3857.10] are taking a 50% pay cut +[3857.10 --> 3858.14] with no bonuses. +[3859.14 --> 3860.14] They've lost money +[3860.14 --> 3861.26] four out of the last +[3861.26 --> 3862.18] five years. +[3862.48 --> 3862.98] This was posted +[3862.98 --> 3863.50] on the forum +[3863.50 --> 3864.48] by TopWarGamer. +[3864.60 --> 3865.46] The original article +[3865.46 --> 3867.24] is from IGN. +[3867.76 --> 3868.60] And I, yeah, +[3868.68 --> 3868.94] you know what, +[3868.94 --> 3869.48] TopWarGamer, +[3869.68 --> 3870.58] I think you nailed it. +[3870.58 --> 3871.66] I'm surprised +[3871.66 --> 3872.68] it took you this long +[3872.68 --> 3873.14] to do it. +[3873.18 --> 3873.80] It's almost like +[3873.80 --> 3875.36] a knee-jerk reaction +[3875.36 --> 3876.70] to, oh, well, +[3876.76 --> 3877.90] Nintendo's doing this. +[3878.00 --> 3878.22] Yeah. +[3878.38 --> 3879.34] Therefore, maybe that's +[3879.34 --> 3880.42] the honorable thing to do. +[3881.40 --> 3881.88] Okay. +[3882.42 --> 3883.02] I mean, +[3883.12 --> 3884.92] I don't understand +[3884.92 --> 3887.48] why an executive +[3887.48 --> 3888.74] gets a bonus +[3888.74 --> 3889.88] if the company +[3889.88 --> 3891.62] isn't hugely profitable. +[3891.82 --> 3893.10] My favorite ones +[3893.10 --> 3894.32] and read +[3894.32 --> 3896.36] hate massively +[3896.36 --> 3897.96] is when the company +[3897.96 --> 3898.76] is like failing +[3898.76 --> 3899.58] and going bankrupt +[3899.58 --> 3900.60] and they're like, +[3900.72 --> 3902.14] massive exiting bonus. +[3902.78 --> 3903.00] Yeah. +[3903.10 --> 3903.40] It's like, +[3903.54 --> 3904.56] uh, no, +[3904.72 --> 3905.88] that shouldn't be legal. +[3906.92 --> 3907.94] I really, +[3908.10 --> 3909.04] I really wish +[3909.04 --> 3910.12] that, uh, +[3910.20 --> 3911.04] this mobile site. +[3911.38 --> 3911.70] Yeah, +[3911.76 --> 3912.82] I wish this wasn't +[3912.82 --> 3913.58] the mobile site. +[3913.68 --> 3914.80] But aside from that, +[3915.00 --> 3915.34] I mean, +[3915.34 --> 3915.90] I, I, +[3916.02 --> 3916.66] I don't know, +[3916.76 --> 3917.50] I don't know how +[3917.50 --> 3918.50] you can ever enforce +[3918.50 --> 3919.08] something like that +[3919.08 --> 3919.74] because it all just +[3919.74 --> 3920.66] becomes like, +[3920.88 --> 3921.50] you know, +[3921.72 --> 3923.36] just like buddy club +[3923.36 --> 3924.14] where it's like, +[3924.20 --> 3924.38] yeah, +[3924.44 --> 3925.70] let's all make lots of money. +[3925.70 --> 3926.50] That sounds great. +[3926.56 --> 3926.78] Yeah. +[3926.86 --> 3928.54] I think that's a great idea too. +[3928.92 --> 3929.56] Bonus for you. +[3929.68 --> 3930.38] Bonus for you. +[3930.62 --> 3931.58] Bonus is for everyone. +[3931.92 --> 3932.70] But I, +[3932.70 --> 3934.48] I just think it's wrong. +[3934.68 --> 3936.68] I just think it is so wrong +[3936.68 --> 3937.42] that when you are +[3937.42 --> 3938.52] not making money, +[3939.08 --> 3939.36] I mean, +[3939.36 --> 3939.58] okay, +[3939.72 --> 3941.46] it's one thing to, +[3942.22 --> 3942.44] I mean, +[3942.46 --> 3942.66] okay, +[3942.72 --> 3942.90] I'll, +[3942.96 --> 3943.44] I'll use, +[3943.56 --> 3943.76] you know, +[3943.76 --> 3944.52] the business terms +[3944.52 --> 3946.50] to streamline your workforce +[3946.50 --> 3947.92] and, +[3948.04 --> 3948.44] you know, +[3948.62 --> 3949.34] be profitable +[3949.34 --> 3950.18] and make money +[3950.18 --> 3951.58] because you cut a bunch of jobs. +[3952.82 --> 3954.08] No one likes that, +[3954.28 --> 3955.68] but I kind of get it. +[3955.70 --> 3955.98] You get it. +[3956.16 --> 3957.12] The company's profitable. +[3957.54 --> 3958.18] You're still, +[3958.42 --> 3959.76] you're maintaining your sales target. +[3959.88 --> 3961.32] You're doing the company things +[3961.32 --> 3962.22] that you need to do, +[3962.26 --> 3963.34] which is to make money. +[3964.10 --> 3965.20] It's another thing +[3965.20 --> 3967.66] when you are cutting jobs +[3967.66 --> 3969.12] or not cutting jobs. +[3969.20 --> 3969.36] All right. +[3969.36 --> 3969.58] Okay. +[3969.66 --> 3969.78] It's, +[3969.84 --> 3970.44] I guess it's better +[3970.44 --> 3971.54] if you're not cutting jobs +[3971.54 --> 3972.22] and, +[3972.36 --> 3972.48] okay, +[3972.54 --> 3972.66] no, +[3972.68 --> 3972.96] hold on. +[3973.18 --> 3973.74] If you are, +[3973.92 --> 3976.50] we'll get there. +[3976.76 --> 3977.40] We'll get there. +[3977.50 --> 3977.68] Yeah. +[3977.82 --> 3978.04] Yeah. +[3978.38 --> 3978.56] So, +[3978.64 --> 3978.80] right. +[3978.86 --> 3979.66] So if you're making money, +[3979.66 --> 3980.28] that's one thing. +[3980.50 --> 3980.74] If you're, +[3980.78 --> 3981.02] you know, +[3981.06 --> 3981.52] cutting jobs +[3981.52 --> 3982.50] or even not cutting jobs +[3982.50 --> 3983.52] and you're not making money, +[3983.52 --> 3984.62] you shouldn't be getting a bonus. +[3984.80 --> 3985.00] Yeah. +[3985.06 --> 3985.84] Because a bonus +[3985.84 --> 3987.02] should be tied to performance. +[3987.30 --> 3988.88] And if the company's not making money, +[3988.88 --> 3989.82] then the leadership +[3989.82 --> 3991.42] is not performing +[3991.42 --> 3993.18] because leadership is responsible +[3993.18 --> 3994.52] for everyone. +[3994.72 --> 3995.12] Like, +[3995.20 --> 3996.62] if he does something stupid, +[3997.04 --> 3997.60] ultimately, +[3997.86 --> 4000.16] who gets a cease and desist +[4000.16 --> 4002.64] or who gets a complaint? +[4002.80 --> 4003.66] It will be me +[4003.66 --> 4005.58] because I'm responsible for him. +[4005.72 --> 4007.20] So if he does something great, +[4007.30 --> 4008.94] then I should get a bonus. +[4009.20 --> 4010.26] But if he does something crappy, +[4010.62 --> 4011.20] then I'm the one +[4011.20 --> 4012.16] who has to deal with it +[4012.16 --> 4012.98] because ultimately, +[4013.14 --> 4014.52] I'm responsible for what he does. +[4014.62 --> 4015.80] And that's how leadership works. +[4016.16 --> 4017.34] That's what taking responsibility +[4017.34 --> 4018.14] for things +[4018.14 --> 4019.32] is supposed to look like. +[4019.76 --> 4020.28] And so, +[4021.04 --> 4021.86] I don't understand +[4021.86 --> 4022.86] why it took so long +[4022.86 --> 4024.06] and I'm frustrated +[4024.06 --> 4025.00] that that's a thing +[4025.00 --> 4025.96] and I guess I'm not really +[4025.96 --> 4027.04] going anywhere with this now. +[4027.22 --> 4027.48] But, +[4027.80 --> 4028.54] the point is, +[4028.80 --> 4029.48] thank you guys +[4029.48 --> 4030.80] for tuning into the WAN Show. +[4031.18 --> 4032.36] I hope you guys enjoyed it +[4032.36 --> 4033.16] as much as we did. +[4033.28 --> 4034.04] I'm surprised there's +[4034.04 --> 4035.08] so many people watching. +[4035.28 --> 4035.38] It's, +[4035.46 --> 4036.32] the weather's beautiful here. +[4036.38 --> 4037.42] Maybe the weather sucks there. +[4037.70 --> 4038.26] In which case, +[4038.26 --> 4039.04] I'm sorry to hear that. +[4039.30 --> 4040.12] I think also, +[4040.42 --> 4041.34] a bunch of finals ending. +[4041.62 --> 4042.26] Ah, yes. +[4042.26 --> 4043.56] I think there's still some more +[4043.56 --> 4045.28] coming a little bit later. +[4045.46 --> 4046.68] If you guys have finals +[4046.68 --> 4047.40] later than this, +[4047.90 --> 4048.42] I'm sorry. +[4048.56 --> 4049.12] Holy crap, +[4049.20 --> 4049.82] that sucks. +[4050.46 --> 4051.06] But yeah, +[4051.18 --> 4051.76] thank you everybody +[4051.76 --> 4052.40] for tuning in. +[4052.52 --> 4052.96] That was awesome. +[4053.22 --> 4053.46] Alright, +[4053.58 --> 4054.22] peace out guys. +[4055.80 --> 4056.56] Someone will get it. +[4068.26 --> 4069.06] Peace out. +[4076.50 --> 4076.64] Thanks. +[4079.08 --> 4079.72] See you something else. +[4079.72 --> 4080.32] Bye. +[4080.36 --> 4081.06] Bye. +[4081.10 --> 4081.44] Bye. +[4081.80 --> 4082.12] Bye. +[4082.14

2014_transcript.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4664 @@ +[0.00 --> 15.12] Welcome to the WAN Show, guys! The show where I and my co-host, Luke Slick Lafreniere, talk to you about the latest in technology and gaming and all that good stuff. +[15.12 --> 30.38] You know what's funny is I do most of the talking on this show, but it still feels really weird to have this thing next to me. I was actually really hoping that Luke would be able to join me on the show this week, but that is unfortunately not possible because I haven't heard from him. +[30.38 --> 43.20] He landed in Boston yesterday early morning, I think, or the night before. I don't even know. He flew out Thursday very early morning, so must have landed in Boston Thursday night. +[44.02 --> 58.82] Other than getting a call from him, hey, we landed safely. Did you ever arrange a shuttle? To which I said no. I haven't actually heard from either him or Brandon, so they're going to be there doing all of our PAX East coverage, +[58.82 --> 70.18] which you guys can look forward to finding on the channel over the next few days here. They're going to have a lot of emphasis on the Indie Mega Booth because that's something that Luke is super passionate about, +[70.36 --> 81.30] but they are going to make the rounds to some of your favorite hardware vendors like Cooler Master as well as, I think they're going to swing by Kingston, and there's at least a couple other ones. +[81.30 --> 93.24] Oh yeah, Intel for sure. Intel is powering our trip to the show, which I've mentioned on the last few WAN shows, so between Intel and Corsair, that is the entire reason that Luke and Brandon were able to go. +[93.24 --> 104.10] I'm going to try and do a little bit more audience interaction today just because I don't have... I mean, you know, this guy is like, you know, I like interacting with... +[104.10 --> 112.62] No, no, not interacting like that. I love interacting with my dummy right here, but not having Luke here is just a little bit unfortunate. +[112.62 --> 126.62] If people are asking me to go get Taryn, I would love to. Unfortunately, because my human physiology requires me to sleep once in a while, I wasn't able to get this Friday, +[126.88 --> 135.02] so today's Fast As Possible scripted yet, to film it Thursday evening before I went home. +[135.02 --> 141.80] So I had to film it when I got back from NCIX today, which means that Taryn is actually editing right now. +[142.16 --> 150.24] So Luke and Brandon are in Boston, and Edsel is still at NCIX, and then Taryn is the only one who's here with me. +[151.22 --> 157.52] All right, so let's go through some of the fantastic topics that we've got today before we do our intro here. +[157.52 --> 162.72] So let me see. Will.i.am says he developed a smartwatch. +[162.72 --> 168.54] I, personally, would absolutely love to check it out. +[169.38 --> 174.42] It's going to be coming in a little while. He funded it, used his own money to develop it, so more on that a little bit later. +[174.84 --> 183.90] The word on the street is also that VESA has accepted FreeSync as part of the upcoming extension to DisplayPort called 1.2a, +[184.10 --> 186.82] which could be very, very good news for gamers. +[187.40 --> 192.10] Google is taking another crack at the living room with Android TV. More on that later. +[192.10 --> 196.92] And the Blackmagic Ursa. Okay, maybe you guys don't... +[197.56 --> 201.14] Maybe you don't think you care about camera technology. +[201.98 --> 208.74] But riddle me this. Have you noticed the dramatic change in the quality of our videos over the last year? +[209.06 --> 211.16] That is thanks to camera technology. +[211.16 --> 219.40] The reason WAN Show looks so crisp compared to a lot of other streams is the Blackmagic camera that we use to power it. +[219.46 --> 223.20] That's their first camera, the Blackmagic Cinema Camera. It's a 2.5k camera. +[223.68 --> 226.04] Now this one... Okay, I'll tell you more about it later. +[226.10 --> 228.56] But anyway, trust me, it's like really freaking cool. +[228.66 --> 230.90] It's like this upgradable camera. +[231.38 --> 233.64] And then... Oh, this one's really cool as well. +[233.64 --> 236.74] So there's a new battery technology potentially coming. +[237.10 --> 240.66] Seems to... The researchers seem to be very confident about it. +[240.68 --> 245.20] That could allow your phone to be recharged in under 25 seconds. +[245.74 --> 248.10] And I don't know where I got the number 25 from. I'm sorry. +[248.18 --> 250.84] Under 30 seconds. The demo was 26 seconds. +[251.26 --> 252.64] So 25. I'm just... +[253.18 --> 258.98] There's a new technology that could allow your car to go from 0 to 500 miles an hour in 3 seconds. +[258.98 --> 260.52] I'm just making stuff up at this point. +[260.58 --> 264.56] But I'll tell you guys more about that later on in the show as well. +[268.88 --> 270.38] Why is there no sound? +[270.50 --> 271.32] I'll just make the sound. +[282.64 --> 283.72] I'm gonna kill Edsel. +[283.72 --> 287.36] Because he forgot to put the music in. +[289.48 --> 296.36] Ah, yes. Our sponsors of the show today are Asus, ROG Notebooks, and DollarShaveClub.com. +[296.44 --> 298.30] Shave time, shave money. +[298.86 --> 302.86] Big thanks to both of those sponsors, who we will tell you more about later, +[303.14 --> 306.32] for making this week's episode of The WAN Show possible. +[306.64 --> 309.60] Or at least helping us actually make a living while we do it. +[309.64 --> 311.84] I mean, it would be possible to do anything. +[311.84 --> 316.22] I mean, you could make a battery that recharges in 25 seconds, +[316.32 --> 317.68] or a car that goes from 0 to 500. +[317.86 --> 319.30] No, okay. I'm just gonna stop with that now. +[319.36 --> 321.14] It's not actually funny for me to make up things. +[321.50 --> 323.54] Make up things and present them as news. +[323.70 --> 325.46] Linus Media Group. That should be our tagline. +[326.00 --> 327.84] All right. So... +[327.84 --> 330.84] Will.i.am claims to have developed a smartwatch. +[331.58 --> 333.84] The article that we're gonna be checking out here is from Engadget, +[334.84 --> 337.28] but this was posted on the forum by Kooza. +[337.54 --> 339.04] Thank you very, very much. +[339.04 --> 343.60] We really do appreciate when people take the time, make up things, and present them as news. +[343.72 --> 344.88] Oh, for crying out loud. +[345.10 --> 345.60] Stop that. +[346.38 --> 347.20] Why you do that? +[347.26 --> 348.20] Why you do that, Twitch? +[348.30 --> 351.64] Why you make that the automatic default setting there? +[351.96 --> 352.34] All right. +[352.42 --> 355.64] So we appreciate when people post in the news section of linustechtips.com, +[355.70 --> 357.68] because we love how active the forum is, +[357.72 --> 360.36] and how easy it is to find all the latest cool tech news there. +[360.42 --> 360.72] All right. +[360.72 --> 363.58] So the article from Engadget. +[363.70 --> 364.28] Will.i.am... +[364.84 --> 365.80] There he is. +[365.96 --> 367.32] Like, he's actually wearing it. +[367.50 --> 368.34] This isn't like... +[368.34 --> 371.00] This isn't like Kanye coming up with, +[371.40 --> 373.44] Hey, I invented the white t-shirt. +[373.70 --> 374.06] And... +[374.06 --> 374.34] Okay. +[374.56 --> 375.88] Actually, it is kind of... +[375.88 --> 377.40] It's kind of the same. +[377.46 --> 379.90] Or at least it's not different in the way that I was presenting it. +[379.94 --> 380.64] I was gonna say, +[380.96 --> 383.44] You know, it's not like Kanye claiming to invent the white t-shirt, +[383.54 --> 385.20] but actually he didn't invent a t-shirt. +[385.60 --> 385.92] But he... +[385.92 --> 387.66] I mean, he did, I guess. +[387.74 --> 390.72] He did create this white t-shirt that you could buy and spend a lot of money on. +[390.94 --> 394.24] But this isn't like just some random claim. +[394.62 --> 398.22] He's actually wearing the thing and talking about it. +[398.46 --> 400.84] So he started the company himself. +[401.24 --> 401.52] Okay. +[401.68 --> 402.26] Funded it. +[402.42 --> 404.16] Used his own money to develop it. +[404.16 --> 407.78] It can apparently stream stored music via Bluetooth +[407.78 --> 411.82] and make calls and access Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram +[411.82 --> 415.94] without having to connect to a smartphone. +[418.34 --> 420.46] I'm really interested to see how this works. +[420.58 --> 424.64] A lot of this stuff does potentially make sense, +[424.68 --> 426.44] being able to stream music via Bluetooth. +[426.66 --> 430.02] So if it was like a Bluetooth player +[430.02 --> 433.42] that you could then use like your Jaybirds or something like that +[433.42 --> 435.70] to play music over, then okay. +[435.70 --> 438.54] But if you're going to be able to make calls on it +[438.54 --> 440.00] without having to connect to a smartphone, +[440.16 --> 443.50] hey, maybe there's a reason that Intel named Will.i.am. +[443.56 --> 447.38] It's Director of Creative Innovation back in January 2011. +[448.08 --> 449.96] So, you know, he's... +[449.96 --> 455.44] It's not like he's just so far out there in imagination land +[455.44 --> 458.70] that serious companies like Intel are ignoring him. +[458.70 --> 464.02] So it's rumored to be coming sometime in the next sort of little while. +[464.58 --> 467.40] And I will tell you what. +[467.46 --> 470.82] If you guys want to see it, I will review this. +[471.56 --> 475.36] So apparently there's a spider behind you. +[476.00 --> 479.16] Okay, Aldi, if we have any mods, that's a permaban. +[479.44 --> 479.94] See you later. +[480.12 --> 480.46] All right. +[480.84 --> 482.64] Actually, maybe I can just do that. +[483.34 --> 484.58] Aldi, you're gone. +[485.58 --> 486.84] You're gone, man. +[487.36 --> 487.76] Bend. +[487.92 --> 488.80] Permabend. +[489.08 --> 490.60] Never going to unban you. +[490.70 --> 491.30] There you go. +[491.42 --> 491.98] Yeah. +[492.26 --> 492.50] Woo. +[492.80 --> 493.22] All right. +[493.40 --> 495.34] So let's move on to our next topic here. +[495.48 --> 496.42] And that is... +[496.42 --> 496.90] This is... +[496.90 --> 498.68] Oh, this is such good news. +[499.12 --> 499.46] All right. +[499.54 --> 501.50] So I was original... +[501.50 --> 503.10] I originally had this brought to my attention +[503.10 --> 504.06] from... +[504.06 --> 505.76] By an article on PC Per. +[506.20 --> 508.84] So my bud Ryan Shrout's website +[508.84 --> 511.58] that I guess he does tech stuff or something. +[511.68 --> 512.56] I think he makes videos too. +[512.56 --> 515.42] Anyway, VESA may... +[515.42 --> 516.70] So this is allegedly... +[516.70 --> 519.84] May have accepted AMD's FreeSync. +[520.58 --> 521.68] This is so cool. +[521.80 --> 524.24] So I made an awful lot of noise +[524.24 --> 525.94] about NVIDIA's G-Sync +[525.94 --> 527.40] back when they first showed it off. +[527.82 --> 528.72] Since then, +[528.86 --> 531.96] my enthusiasm has naturally somewhat dwindled +[531.96 --> 533.00] to the point where it's like, +[533.10 --> 536.10] are we ever going to actually get to use this thing? +[536.12 --> 537.86] Because it's a great technology. +[537.86 --> 539.78] What G-Sync basically does +[539.78 --> 542.80] is instead of refreshing your screen +[542.80 --> 544.88] at a fixed interval, okay? +[545.04 --> 547.20] And this is particularly important when gaming. +[547.80 --> 551.00] Instead, it waits for your GPU to render a frame +[551.00 --> 553.14] and then refreshes whenever it's ready. +[553.36 --> 555.64] And I've had people message me and say, +[555.64 --> 557.26] oh, well, that'll be leggier. +[557.48 --> 559.66] No, actually, it'll be less leggy +[559.66 --> 562.00] because the problem with this, +[562.10 --> 563.28] this constant refreshing, +[563.42 --> 567.38] is either you're going to slow down your GPU. +[567.60 --> 570.42] Either you're going to have to kind of sit around +[570.42 --> 571.82] and wait for things +[571.82 --> 573.30] and then have them be displayed, +[573.30 --> 577.74] or you are going to have to see partial frames +[577.74 --> 579.30] one on top of the other +[579.30 --> 580.12] and you're going to get tearing. +[580.22 --> 581.10] What G-Sync does +[581.10 --> 583.30] is it makes sure that the frames are delivered +[583.30 --> 585.64] as quickly as possible once they're ready +[585.64 --> 588.18] and that you only get one frame at a time +[588.18 --> 590.02] rather than like, you know, +[590.14 --> 591.90] the top of Lara Croft's body here +[591.90 --> 593.42] and the bottom like over here. +[593.78 --> 594.36] And you're just like, +[594.42 --> 597.08] okay, so I could enjoy the bottom or the top separately, +[597.20 --> 598.50] but not the whole package, right? +[599.06 --> 600.78] So not that people play games +[600.78 --> 603.76] just to, you know, scantily clad female lead characters. +[603.88 --> 604.62] Shame on you! +[604.96 --> 608.74] Anyway, I forget what I was talking about now. +[608.82 --> 611.92] Right, so AMD came along +[611.92 --> 614.00] and at CES, +[614.32 --> 617.84] they showed off what they were cheekily calling FreeSync. +[617.96 --> 622.08] Now, FreeSync was basically exactly the same thing +[622.08 --> 624.20] and that was the ability for the display +[624.20 --> 627.08] to only refresh when the GPU was ready +[627.08 --> 628.50] or when something on the screen changed +[628.50 --> 630.66] because FreeSync was using something +[630.66 --> 633.84] that was developed for power saving in laptops. +[634.46 --> 637.06] So NVIDIA's response at the time was, +[637.20 --> 637.98] well, FreeSync, +[638.38 --> 641.30] there's the scalers that are being used for this, +[641.42 --> 642.40] A, they're only in notebooks, +[642.96 --> 646.76] and B, they're not designed for the type of use case +[646.76 --> 649.04] that would have it being used constantly. +[649.26 --> 650.36] I mean, with G-Sync, +[650.44 --> 652.94] we developed this robust piece of hardware +[652.94 --> 654.30] that's really future-proof +[654.30 --> 656.92] and really designed for that kind of a workload. +[657.44 --> 659.46] Well, FreeSync, yes, +[659.50 --> 661.50] was a bit of a Frankenstein experiment at the time +[661.50 --> 662.60] and I see NVIDIA's point, +[662.86 --> 667.06] but if it becomes part of the DisplayPort 1.2a standard, +[667.60 --> 669.72] which allegedly it will, +[670.06 --> 673.62] we could all of a sudden see basically every display +[673.62 --> 678.00] have this GPU-triggered refreshing enabled on it. +[678.54 --> 679.94] Holy crap. +[680.18 --> 682.34] DisplayPort, you just won. +[682.74 --> 683.96] Like, you just won. +[684.44 --> 686.94] Not only are you ahead of HDMI +[686.94 --> 691.24] because HDMI 2.0 is still not existent, +[691.40 --> 692.86] you can't actually buy anything with it, +[692.92 --> 694.74] and DisplayPort 1.2 has been available forever +[694.74 --> 696.96] and already supports 4K at 60Hz, +[696.96 --> 703.38] now you are going to be in every gaming machine anywhere, +[704.14 --> 705.34] and rightly so. +[705.62 --> 707.56] Like, it's just such a shame +[707.56 --> 710.08] that the Xbox and PlayStation 4 +[710.08 --> 712.66] couldn't have something like this. +[712.74 --> 715.92] And I'm not even poking fun at the console gamers right now. +[716.00 --> 718.74] I'm just legitimately sad for them +[718.74 --> 721.38] because I'm sad for the entire industry +[721.38 --> 724.64] because as long as you have to keep trying to design games +[724.64 --> 726.44] to run at like a fixed frame rate, +[726.44 --> 727.10] which you have to +[727.10 --> 728.36] because frame rate fluctuations +[728.36 --> 730.98] will cause either lag or tearing on consoles +[730.98 --> 735.22] where we're stuck with these constant refresh rate monitors. +[735.64 --> 738.44] So as long as the games industry has to account for that, +[738.68 --> 740.66] we can't see them move forward +[740.66 --> 745.08] and push for a little bit more visual quality. +[745.40 --> 747.88] And so what if it dips down to 48 frames per second +[747.88 --> 749.00] or 53 frames per second +[749.00 --> 751.26] because it'll still look really good and really smooth +[751.26 --> 753.14] because that is something that G-Sync +[753.14 --> 759.40] and by extension, I suppose, FreeSync will do very, very well. +[759.68 --> 762.80] So fantastic news right there. +[763.24 --> 766.22] Next up is Android TV. +[766.70 --> 769.18] So The Verge got an exclusive scoop here +[769.18 --> 771.54] where they are showing off +[771.54 --> 774.48] what appears to be the interface of Android TV. +[774.48 --> 777.76] And what I thought was one of the most interesting things +[777.76 --> 779.22] about this article +[779.22 --> 784.92] was how little information it actually seemed to contain. +[785.14 --> 789.08] So we've got quotes from Google saying things like, +[789.14 --> 790.76] here, let me just track this down. +[792.20 --> 796.58] Android TV is an entertainment interface, +[796.58 --> 798.90] not a computing platform. +[798.90 --> 802.30] It's all about finding and enjoying content +[802.30 --> 804.10] with the least amount of friction. +[805.44 --> 807.58] What does that mean? +[810.38 --> 813.28] I mean, we saw Google TV in the past. +[813.38 --> 815.20] I mean, that was a total disaster +[815.20 --> 818.54] just because, I mean, I think they made claims. +[818.58 --> 819.88] This is in The Verge article as well. +[819.96 --> 821.08] So they made claims like +[821.08 --> 824.54] the majority of TVs in 2012 would ship with Google TV. +[824.54 --> 828.20] But what was the difference? +[828.30 --> 830.36] Like, I understand some of the things they're saying here. +[830.42 --> 832.52] So they want the interface to be cinematic, +[833.00 --> 834.46] fun, fluid, and fast. +[834.76 --> 836.98] And they want no more than, +[837.04 --> 838.98] I think they're saying three clicks +[838.98 --> 841.60] in order to go from turning it on +[841.60 --> 843.26] to actually watching content, +[843.34 --> 844.48] which I think is really cool. +[844.96 --> 845.92] But beyond that, +[846.04 --> 848.02] what is the actual difference +[848.02 --> 850.94] between a set-top box that plugs into your TV +[850.94 --> 853.52] that is an entertainment interface +[853.52 --> 856.32] and a set-top box that plugs into your TV +[856.32 --> 858.18] that is a computing platform? +[858.62 --> 860.02] If anything, I would say +[860.02 --> 861.00] if you're going to call something +[861.00 --> 862.12] an entertainment interface, +[862.34 --> 864.44] it would be something more like Chromecast, +[864.56 --> 867.30] where you'll have specific apps developed for it. +[867.32 --> 869.34] But really, it's more about the experience +[869.34 --> 871.56] and not about the Chromecast actually being +[871.56 --> 873.04] a computing platform, +[873.14 --> 874.26] a powerful piece of hardware. +[874.46 --> 876.62] And right now, it's not clear +[876.62 --> 880.88] how Android TV is going to slot into the whole ecosystem +[880.88 --> 883.64] or how Chromecast is going to slot into the whole ecosystem. +[883.92 --> 885.62] But what we do know for now +[885.62 --> 889.02] is that Chromecast will continue to exist. +[889.62 --> 892.30] So screenshots are now showing Google's own apps +[892.30 --> 894.58] like Play Movies and YouTube and Hangouts, +[894.74 --> 897.08] but there are also third-party apps being shown +[897.08 --> 900.80] like Vivo, Netflix, Hulu, Pandora, and games. +[900.80 --> 904.20] So to me, on the surface anyway, +[904.48 --> 905.48] what this looks like +[905.48 --> 908.38] is just developers having to make +[908.38 --> 910.50] multiple different interfaces +[910.50 --> 911.84] for different Google products +[911.84 --> 913.68] because there are plenty of set-top boxes. +[914.34 --> 916.46] Amazon's recent Fire TV +[916.46 --> 918.24] that use Android, +[918.34 --> 920.20] although Amazon is a bad example, I guess, +[920.26 --> 922.18] because it doesn't run stock Android by any stretch. +[922.28 --> 924.12] But there are Android-based players +[924.12 --> 926.30] from even small manufacturers like Pevos. +[926.30 --> 928.60] So you're going to have to have an interface for Android +[928.60 --> 930.74] that hopefully looks somewhat good on a TV. +[930.86 --> 932.46] You're going to have to have an interface for Chromecast +[932.46 --> 933.56] that looks somewhat good on a TV. +[933.78 --> 936.42] You're going to have to design an interface for Android TV +[936.42 --> 937.74] that looks good on a TV. +[937.96 --> 942.66] And it just seems like an awful lot of hassle. +[943.58 --> 945.96] But maybe they have a better plan this time. +[946.30 --> 948.94] And maybe all that I'm saying right now +[948.94 --> 951.68] is going to have nothing to do with anything. +[951.78 --> 954.04] I see a lot of people complaining about mods in the Twitch chat. +[954.14 --> 955.98] Sorry, there's not a whole lot I can do about it right now. +[955.98 --> 959.62] But we do have plans to work out a different chat system +[959.62 --> 961.30] that's a little bit easier for us to moderate. +[961.54 --> 963.02] So stay tuned for that. +[963.06 --> 963.46] All right, guys? +[964.40 --> 964.88] This. +[965.90 --> 968.82] This is something that I'm getting pretty tired of, +[968.84 --> 969.80] this next topic here. +[969.92 --> 972.26] Now, NVIDIA released a new driver. +[972.72 --> 976.94] And they came out with all kinds of claims +[976.94 --> 978.14] with respect to performance. +[978.22 --> 979.14] So they're basically saying, +[979.26 --> 981.66] look, we're going to have DirectX 12 +[981.66 --> 985.38] on all of our GPUs that supported DirectX 11 AMD. +[985.38 --> 989.08] And we're going to release a DirectX 11 driver +[989.08 --> 991.02] that stomps all over Mantle anyway. +[991.40 --> 992.38] So here, check this out. +[992.70 --> 994.42] So screen sharing here. +[994.50 --> 996.16] This was posted originally on the forum +[996.16 --> 998.22] by actually a couple of different folks. +[998.28 --> 998.96] I'll credit them later. +[999.02 --> 1001.94] But the 337.50 beta driver +[1001.94 --> 1003.82] was claiming that it would deliver +[1003.82 --> 1007.52] up to 64% faster single GPU performance +[1007.52 --> 1010.60] and up to 71% faster SLI performance +[1010.60 --> 1015.20] just through optimizing the DirectX 11 driver +[1015.20 --> 1016.46] that's available now. +[1016.46 --> 1021.12] Now, I have heard members of the press +[1021.12 --> 1022.86] muttering under their breath, +[1023.28 --> 1024.24] talking to each other, +[1024.34 --> 1025.48] not going to name any names, +[1025.48 --> 1029.38] about every time AMD or NVIDIA +[1029.38 --> 1031.28] releases a big driver update +[1031.28 --> 1035.54] that claims to completely turn the world inside out +[1035.54 --> 1038.10] by delivering amazing new performance +[1038.10 --> 1040.40] to the existing GPUs that they produce. +[1040.98 --> 1043.52] And the comments go a little something like this. +[1044.64 --> 1048.24] Maybe, maybe they'll actually have changed something +[1048.24 --> 1050.34] a lot this time, but I doubt it. +[1050.34 --> 1052.84] And I even heard one of them talking directly +[1052.84 --> 1054.30] to either AMD or NVIDIA, +[1054.36 --> 1055.72] not going to name any names here, +[1055.82 --> 1058.42] saying, look, if I spend the time +[1058.42 --> 1059.54] to benchmark this thing, +[1059.74 --> 1061.86] am I actually going to find this number you're claiming +[1061.86 --> 1063.94] or is it just a waste of my time again? +[1064.62 --> 1068.42] So the press in general is a little bit sick +[1068.42 --> 1071.36] of the whole claims that don't really seem to add up thing. +[1071.82 --> 1076.78] And unfortunately, it looks like this is maybe more of the same. +[1076.80 --> 1077.82] Okay, there are improvements, +[1077.82 --> 1080.94] but there might be a little bit more of the same going on here. +[1081.04 --> 1084.56] So we referenced articles from two of my favorite sites. +[1084.68 --> 1086.10] We actually didn't have the time, +[1086.46 --> 1087.34] just didn't have the bandwidth +[1087.34 --> 1088.58] to run the benchmarks ourselves, +[1088.70 --> 1090.32] but these are both very trustworthy sources. +[1090.60 --> 1092.68] Trust me that they're good for it, I guess. +[1093.10 --> 1095.16] So Anantec and PCPer. +[1095.28 --> 1097.94] So they both did pretty darn good articles +[1097.94 --> 1099.44] on the new NVIDIA driver +[1099.44 --> 1102.04] and the conclusions from both of them +[1102.04 --> 1103.68] basically amounted to this. +[1103.68 --> 1108.68] Anantec's test indicated about a 10% improvement +[1108.68 --> 1110.24] in performance in Bioshock Infinite +[1110.24 --> 1111.18] and Metro Last Light. +[1111.76 --> 1114.76] SLI performance increased 10% for Grid 2 +[1114.76 --> 1117.88] and 76% for Total War Rome 2, +[1118.06 --> 1121.56] although Total War Rome 2, +[1122.06 --> 1124.68] you know, was pretty far back +[1124.68 --> 1125.56] in terms of optimization. +[1125.56 --> 1127.56] So anyway, a 76%, +[1127.56 --> 1128.68] that means they did achieve it. +[1128.74 --> 1130.16] So 76% performance improvement +[1130.16 --> 1132.18] in a particular game is good. +[1132.78 --> 1135.08] NVIDIA boasts huge performance gains +[1135.08 --> 1136.10] in older games. +[1136.42 --> 1136.96] So, you know, +[1137.12 --> 1139.04] Call of Duty Black Ops is getting 20%, +[1139.04 --> 1139.68] I guess. +[1140.02 --> 1141.52] And, you know, +[1142.26 --> 1146.28] SLI has seen slight performance increases. +[1146.28 --> 1148.92] And NVIDIA has been working on, +[1149.04 --> 1149.24] you know, +[1149.30 --> 1150.62] some mantle-optimized games +[1150.62 --> 1152.16] and all this kind of stuff. +[1152.24 --> 1154.28] But the basic conclusion was that +[1154.28 --> 1156.40] performance was only really increased +[1156.40 --> 1157.76] in some pretty specific games. +[1158.06 --> 1159.36] And for the most part, +[1159.52 --> 1162.04] the sensationalist headline performance improvements +[1162.04 --> 1164.64] were pretty difficult to find. +[1165.28 --> 1166.86] And I guess for me, +[1167.02 --> 1167.28] this, +[1167.52 --> 1169.96] it turns into a bit of a +[1169.96 --> 1171.46] can I trust you issue. +[1171.94 --> 1172.16] Like, +[1172.24 --> 1173.34] I don't mind +[1173.34 --> 1175.10] when NVIDIA provides us +[1175.10 --> 1176.48] with reference benchmarks +[1176.48 --> 1177.74] when they release a new GPU. +[1177.92 --> 1178.46] In general, +[1178.58 --> 1180.18] they've done a pretty good job of it +[1180.18 --> 1180.60] where they say, +[1180.72 --> 1180.86] okay, +[1180.92 --> 1182.38] if you take our card +[1182.38 --> 1183.74] and this AMD card +[1183.74 --> 1184.90] and you run them side by side, +[1184.98 --> 1186.28] here's about the performance improvement +[1186.28 --> 1186.96] you can expect. +[1187.16 --> 1187.86] We're still going to run +[1187.86 --> 1188.78] our own benchmarks anyway. +[1188.90 --> 1189.84] We're not just going to take that +[1189.84 --> 1190.64] at face value. +[1191.18 --> 1191.58] But, +[1192.24 --> 1192.80] it's +[1192.80 --> 1194.02] nice +[1194.02 --> 1195.36] when they at least give us a reference +[1195.36 --> 1196.66] so that when we run something +[1196.66 --> 1198.44] and it's like totally not the same, +[1198.84 --> 1199.76] we can go back and go, +[1199.84 --> 1200.22] oh crap, +[1200.28 --> 1201.24] did we screw something up? +[1201.66 --> 1203.00] This is, +[1204.06 --> 1205.80] it just seems like a headline grab +[1205.80 --> 1207.64] and I find it frustrating +[1207.64 --> 1210.80] because I had another similar experience +[1210.80 --> 1212.26] with NVIDIA not that long ago +[1212.26 --> 1214.00] where I was reviewing a gaming notebook +[1214.00 --> 1218.06] that had NVIDIA's latest GTX 860M +[1218.06 --> 1219.36] graphics card in it +[1219.36 --> 1220.78] and they've got a new feature +[1220.78 --> 1222.32] that they're calling battery boost +[1222.32 --> 1224.62] where they're claiming up to two times +[1224.62 --> 1226.00] the battery performance. +[1226.16 --> 1228.02] And I mentioned this in my notebook review +[1228.02 --> 1229.00] where I said, +[1229.00 --> 1231.52] I got about an extra two minutes of performance, +[1231.92 --> 1233.10] not two times performance, +[1233.28 --> 1235.14] although I did admit at the time +[1235.14 --> 1236.86] that I do need to do a follow-up. +[1237.10 --> 1237.48] But I mean, +[1237.52 --> 1238.92] I don't think there was too much +[1238.92 --> 1240.02] to go wrong with my test +[1240.02 --> 1240.74] because the way there's, +[1240.84 --> 1242.28] the technology is supposed to work +[1242.28 --> 1246.12] is that instead of allowing the notebook GPU +[1246.12 --> 1248.00] to work as hard as it can +[1248.00 --> 1248.52] to deliver, +[1248.88 --> 1249.12] you know, +[1249.16 --> 1250.94] 60 or 70 frames per second, +[1251.18 --> 1253.54] you can limit the frame rate at like 30 +[1253.54 --> 1255.64] if you're okay with that gaming experience +[1255.64 --> 1256.82] on battery life +[1256.82 --> 1258.52] in order to preserve some power. +[1258.52 --> 1260.16] So I just found a part of Crysis +[1260.16 --> 1263.48] that normally would run at like 55 frames per second +[1263.48 --> 1264.08] with battery +[1264.08 --> 1265.24] or 45 frames per second, +[1265.36 --> 1265.54] I think, +[1265.62 --> 1266.28] with battery. +[1266.62 --> 1267.92] And then I turned the limiter on +[1267.92 --> 1269.06] to 30 frames per second +[1269.06 --> 1270.28] and I just left it there +[1270.28 --> 1271.48] with a time-lapse camera on it +[1271.48 --> 1272.68] and the battery died +[1272.68 --> 1273.38] and it shut off +[1273.38 --> 1274.92] and it only was about two minutes difference. +[1275.30 --> 1275.32] So, +[1276.62 --> 1282.28] I don't know. +[1282.70 --> 1283.82] I don't know what else there is +[1283.82 --> 1284.86] for me to really say about it +[1284.86 --> 1286.90] other than I just find that pretty frustrating. +[1287.24 --> 1287.36] So, +[1287.84 --> 1288.62] I'm going to go ahead +[1288.62 --> 1290.56] and add at least one mod here. +[1290.90 --> 1291.48] There we go. +[1292.06 --> 1292.54] Boom! +[1292.64 --> 1294.20] I have added a moderator. +[1294.52 --> 1294.68] So, +[1295.10 --> 1296.92] I don't think one mod is going to be enough +[1296.92 --> 1297.46] and like I said, +[1297.52 --> 1298.48] we're working on a solution +[1298.48 --> 1299.40] but there you go. +[1300.22 --> 1300.52] Alright. +[1300.92 --> 1301.98] Now this next thing +[1301.98 --> 1304.42] is something that is pretty, +[1304.66 --> 1306.08] pretty close to, +[1306.22 --> 1306.66] to me +[1306.66 --> 1308.62] because I do make videos +[1308.62 --> 1309.50] for a living now. +[1309.88 --> 1311.38] This is from +[1311.38 --> 1312.78] NAB 2014 +[1312.78 --> 1313.82] and it is the +[1313.82 --> 1315.16] Blackmagic URSA +[1315.16 --> 1317.86] Upgradable 4K Digital Film Camera. +[1317.94 --> 1318.12] Now, +[1318.50 --> 1319.80] you guys might ask yourselves, +[1319.94 --> 1320.70] for those of you +[1320.70 --> 1322.04] who aren't that familiar +[1322.04 --> 1322.60] with, +[1322.68 --> 1322.92] you know, +[1323.02 --> 1323.66] film equipment, +[1324.06 --> 1325.52] why do we still call it +[1325.52 --> 1326.58] a film camera? +[1326.70 --> 1326.84] Like, +[1326.88 --> 1328.36] what does that actually mean? +[1328.74 --> 1329.86] That means that +[1329.86 --> 1331.18] they are trying to achieve +[1331.18 --> 1333.00] a more film-like look +[1333.00 --> 1333.48] which +[1333.48 --> 1335.22] many content creators +[1335.22 --> 1336.08] still agree +[1336.08 --> 1336.90] is better +[1336.90 --> 1337.82] than that +[1337.82 --> 1338.46] digital +[1338.46 --> 1339.72] camcorder feel +[1339.72 --> 1340.26] that you get +[1340.26 --> 1340.82] with a lot of +[1340.82 --> 1341.62] digital solutions. +[1341.84 --> 1342.00] So, +[1342.34 --> 1343.22] products like the +[1343.22 --> 1344.06] Arri Alexa, +[1344.38 --> 1345.00] which actually +[1345.00 --> 1345.92] isn't even +[1345.92 --> 1347.18] a 4K camera, +[1347.98 --> 1348.58] so I'm going to let +[1348.58 --> 1349.10] that sink in, +[1349.20 --> 1350.02] but gets used +[1350.02 --> 1351.66] for video production, +[1351.86 --> 1353.00] for feature films. +[1353.10 --> 1353.76] It's not even +[1353.76 --> 1355.18] a 4K digital camera. +[1355.64 --> 1356.64] What they've achieved +[1356.64 --> 1357.12] with that +[1357.12 --> 1358.66] is a film look +[1358.66 --> 1359.58] and a color +[1359.58 --> 1360.34] and, +[1360.34 --> 1360.68] and, +[1360.74 --> 1361.66] and a feel +[1361.66 --> 1362.24] to it +[1362.24 --> 1363.40] that is closer +[1363.40 --> 1364.06] to film +[1364.06 --> 1364.74] while +[1364.74 --> 1366.72] avoiding the pitfalls +[1366.72 --> 1367.20] of film +[1367.20 --> 1368.18] which are mostly +[1368.18 --> 1369.04] that it's cumbersome +[1369.04 --> 1369.60] to work with +[1369.60 --> 1370.14] and that it is +[1370.14 --> 1371.96] extremely expensive. +[1372.10 --> 1372.70] That's number one. +[1373.08 --> 1373.34] So, +[1373.46 --> 1374.44] what Blackmagic's +[1374.44 --> 1375.24] trying to do here +[1375.24 --> 1376.08] is create +[1376.08 --> 1377.64] a 4K camera +[1377.64 --> 1378.68] that is kind of +[1378.68 --> 1379.64] ENG size. +[1379.72 --> 1379.82] So, +[1379.88 --> 1379.96] like, +[1379.98 --> 1380.56] you know those ones +[1380.56 --> 1381.74] for like newscaster, +[1381.88 --> 1382.40] news crews +[1382.40 --> 1383.26] that they carry around +[1383.26 --> 1383.66] on the, +[1383.66 --> 1384.42] on the shoulder mount. +[1384.48 --> 1384.56] So, +[1384.60 --> 1384.90] it's about +[1384.90 --> 1385.84] ENG size +[1385.84 --> 1386.74] and +[1386.74 --> 1388.42] not just +[1388.42 --> 1389.14] big +[1389.14 --> 1389.82] but also +[1389.82 --> 1391.14] incredibly feature rich. +[1391.22 --> 1391.32] So, +[1391.36 --> 1392.16] they are allowing +[1392.16 --> 1393.06] upgradable +[1393.06 --> 1394.02] sensors, +[1394.78 --> 1395.46] upgradable +[1395.46 --> 1396.44] lens mounts. +[1396.44 --> 1398.82] It has a 10 inch display +[1398.82 --> 1400.20] built into one side of it. +[1400.32 --> 1401.94] It has two additional displays. +[1402.44 --> 1402.66] So, +[1402.84 --> 1403.74] aside from being used +[1403.74 --> 1404.58] for ENG use, +[1404.62 --> 1405.26] it could be used +[1405.26 --> 1406.56] on like a, +[1406.56 --> 1407.30] a multi, +[1407.78 --> 1407.98] you know, +[1408.02 --> 1409.76] with a multi-person crew +[1409.76 --> 1411.22] on a video production set +[1411.22 --> 1411.96] for commercials +[1411.96 --> 1413.18] or even feature films +[1413.18 --> 1414.38] with like one person +[1414.38 --> 1415.36] monitoring scopes +[1415.36 --> 1416.14] on one side +[1416.14 --> 1416.78] and one person +[1416.78 --> 1418.16] monitoring what the lens +[1418.16 --> 1419.04] is actually looking at +[1419.04 --> 1419.72] on the other side. +[1419.82 --> 1419.92] Like, +[1419.94 --> 1420.86] up to three people +[1420.86 --> 1422.38] working per camera. +[1422.50 --> 1422.94] It's got all these +[1422.94 --> 1423.72] screens on it. +[1423.96 --> 1425.12] It's got professional +[1425.12 --> 1426.00] quality inputs +[1426.00 --> 1426.52] and outputs. +[1426.70 --> 1426.78] So, +[1426.82 --> 1428.58] it has 12G SDI +[1428.58 --> 1430.32] which means that +[1430.32 --> 1431.18] you can basically +[1431.18 --> 1432.20] output directly +[1432.20 --> 1433.16] with one cable, +[1433.30 --> 1433.76] 4K. +[1434.10 --> 1434.76] It supports +[1434.76 --> 1435.74] internal dual +[1435.74 --> 1436.36] RAW +[1436.36 --> 1437.40] and ProRes +[1437.40 --> 1437.98] recorders. +[1438.02 --> 1438.10] So, +[1438.14 --> 1438.64] it's using the +[1438.64 --> 1439.04] upcoming +[1439.04 --> 1439.96] CFast +[1439.96 --> 1440.68] standard +[1440.68 --> 1441.30] that's kind of +[1441.30 --> 1441.92] like an extension +[1441.92 --> 1442.92] of compact flash. +[1443.26 --> 1443.36] So, +[1443.42 --> 1444.24] unlike the cinema camera, +[1444.32 --> 1445.22] it doesn't use SSDs +[1445.22 --> 1445.98] but at least this is +[1445.98 --> 1447.16] a standard media +[1447.16 --> 1448.42] as opposed to +[1448.42 --> 1449.28] a lot of +[1449.28 --> 1450.12] recording solutions +[1450.12 --> 1450.56] that use +[1450.56 --> 1451.48] proprietary media. +[1451.60 --> 1451.88] In fact, +[1451.94 --> 1452.96] the one that we use +[1452.96 --> 1454.18] for our Sony camera +[1454.18 --> 1455.94] uses proprietary SSDs. +[1456.30 --> 1456.40] So, +[1456.48 --> 1457.38] it's a firmware lock +[1457.38 --> 1457.94] that doesn't allow +[1457.94 --> 1458.76] us to use other things +[1458.76 --> 1460.22] and then it's got, +[1460.28 --> 1460.46] you know, +[1460.54 --> 1461.36] XLR input. +[1461.70 --> 1462.30] It's got, +[1462.48 --> 1462.60] so, +[1462.64 --> 1463.36] the two 5-inch +[1463.36 --> 1463.88] touchscreens +[1463.88 --> 1464.60] that are on both +[1464.60 --> 1465.32] sides of the camera +[1465.32 --> 1466.04] so you can put +[1466.04 --> 1466.46] your settings, +[1466.60 --> 1466.92] controls, +[1467.06 --> 1467.88] monitoring tools there +[1467.88 --> 1468.84] and then the big one +[1468.84 --> 1469.52] is the upgradable +[1469.52 --> 1469.84] sensor. +[1469.96 --> 1470.06] So, +[1470.14 --> 1470.92] it comes in at only +[1470.92 --> 1471.70] $6,000 +[1471.70 --> 1472.62] which sounds like +[1472.62 --> 1473.06] a lot of money +[1473.06 --> 1473.58] to you guys +[1473.58 --> 1474.12] but to put this +[1474.12 --> 1474.72] in perspective, +[1475.26 --> 1476.42] the Sony FS700 +[1476.42 --> 1478.60] was around that price +[1478.60 --> 1479.16] when we bought it. +[1479.20 --> 1479.62] I think around +[1479.62 --> 1480.38] $7,000 +[1480.38 --> 1481.36] when we bought it. +[1481.78 --> 1482.92] It has a 4K sensor +[1482.92 --> 1484.48] in it but it's only +[1484.48 --> 1485.46] capable of recording +[1485.46 --> 1486.76] directly to 1080p +[1486.76 --> 1487.58] without an expensive +[1487.58 --> 1488.28] firmware upgrade +[1488.28 --> 1488.98] and an expensive +[1488.98 --> 1489.90] external recorder. +[1490.24 --> 1490.42] So, +[1490.52 --> 1491.10] our camera +[1491.10 --> 1492.62] has actually cost us +[1492.62 --> 1493.86] well over $10,000 +[1493.86 --> 1494.72] by the time we're +[1494.72 --> 1495.74] actually shooting 4K +[1495.74 --> 1496.08] with it +[1496.08 --> 1496.80] which we aren't even +[1496.80 --> 1497.52] able to yet +[1497.52 --> 1498.00] because we're still +[1498.00 --> 1498.62] waiting for another +[1498.62 --> 1499.18] firmware update +[1499.18 --> 1499.74] for our recorder +[1499.74 --> 1500.18] but that's a whole +[1500.18 --> 1500.60] other story. +[1500.86 --> 1501.02] So, +[1501.08 --> 1502.32] this is only $6,000 +[1502.32 --> 1504.10] records to 4K +[1504.10 --> 1505.02] immediately. +[1505.42 --> 1506.16] You can upgrade +[1506.16 --> 1506.78] the sensor +[1506.78 --> 1508.22] to future standards +[1508.22 --> 1509.54] like 6K, +[1509.62 --> 1510.00] 8K +[1510.00 --> 1510.66] or whatever. +[1510.96 --> 1511.74] You can upgrade +[1511.74 --> 1512.30] the mount +[1512.30 --> 1512.90] to put different +[1512.90 --> 1513.74] lenses on it +[1513.74 --> 1515.34] and it just +[1515.34 --> 1516.50] freaking blew my +[1516.50 --> 1517.30] mind and the fact +[1517.30 --> 1517.76] that it uses +[1517.76 --> 1518.62] open standards +[1518.62 --> 1519.32] and comes in +[1519.32 --> 1520.30] at only $6,000 +[1520.30 --> 1523.02] is just unreal. +[1524.36 --> 1524.78] I'm going to head +[1524.78 --> 1525.54] over to Twitch chat +[1525.54 --> 1526.92] and see if things +[1526.92 --> 1528.00] have sort of +[1528.00 --> 1529.76] gotten a little bit +[1529.76 --> 1531.26] less out of control. +[1531.44 --> 1531.64] Yes, +[1531.68 --> 1532.68] indeed they have +[1532.68 --> 1533.24] in fact. +[1533.36 --> 1533.60] Alright, +[1533.74 --> 1534.24] let's move on +[1534.24 --> 1534.92] to our next topic +[1534.92 --> 1535.06] here. +[1535.10 --> 1535.54] I think this is +[1535.54 --> 1535.88] going to be a +[1535.88 --> 1536.70] pretty short show +[1536.70 --> 1537.74] just because +[1537.74 --> 1538.62] there's not +[1538.62 --> 1539.36] a whole lot +[1539.36 --> 1539.74] of room +[1539.74 --> 1540.90] for discussion +[1540.90 --> 1541.84] between me +[1541.84 --> 1542.60] and Luke +[1542.60 --> 1543.06] over here. +[1543.34 --> 1543.70] So, +[1543.76 --> 1544.36] this is a cool +[1544.36 --> 1544.64] demo. +[1544.76 --> 1544.98] Now, +[1545.22 --> 1545.84] one of the +[1545.84 --> 1546.64] things that +[1546.64 --> 1547.66] I have +[1547.66 --> 1548.68] criticized +[1548.68 --> 1549.40] Thunderbolt +[1549.40 --> 1550.40] for is +[1550.40 --> 1550.92] that it +[1550.92 --> 1552.32] just isn't +[1552.32 --> 1553.34] Ethernet. +[1553.72 --> 1554.38] It doesn't +[1554.38 --> 1555.06] allow the +[1555.06 --> 1555.54] same kind +[1555.54 --> 1556.28] of flexibility +[1556.28 --> 1557.28] that Ethernet +[1557.28 --> 1558.08] does in a +[1558.08 --> 1558.68] multi-user +[1558.68 --> 1559.24] scenario. +[1559.44 --> 1559.54] So, +[1559.62 --> 1560.90] having 10 +[1560.90 --> 1561.74] gigabit Ethernet +[1561.74 --> 1562.54] on my PC +[1562.54 --> 1563.50] to me +[1563.50 --> 1564.04] is more +[1564.04 --> 1564.54] important +[1564.54 --> 1565.08] than paying +[1565.08 --> 1565.60] a premium +[1565.60 --> 1566.72] for a +[1566.72 --> 1567.12] Thunderbolt +[1567.12 --> 1567.96] enabled PC +[1567.96 --> 1569.04] and then paying +[1569.04 --> 1570.08] another premium +[1570.08 --> 1570.62] for a +[1570.62 --> 1571.12] Thunderbolt +[1571.12 --> 1572.22] enabled storage +[1572.22 --> 1572.70] enclosure. +[1572.92 --> 1572.96] Well, +[1573.06 --> 1573.46] now, +[1573.96 --> 1574.98] Thunderbolt 2 +[1574.98 --> 1576.22] has been shown +[1576.22 --> 1577.22] off enabling +[1577.22 --> 1578.38] a 10 gigabit +[1578.38 --> 1578.86] per second +[1578.86 --> 1579.94] Ethernet connection +[1579.94 --> 1581.00] between, +[1581.42 --> 1582.06] not only +[1582.06 --> 1582.52] from Mac +[1582.52 --> 1582.98] to Mac, +[1583.16 --> 1583.82] but between +[1583.82 --> 1584.62] a Mac +[1584.62 --> 1585.72] and a PC. +[1586.38 --> 1586.54] So, +[1586.66 --> 1587.34] now, +[1587.70 --> 1588.12] your Mac +[1588.12 --> 1588.84] Pro with +[1588.84 --> 1589.58] its six +[1589.58 --> 1590.26] Thunderbolt 2 +[1590.26 --> 1590.76] connections +[1590.76 --> 1591.68] and, +[1591.68 --> 1592.34] you know, +[1592.40 --> 1592.92] Gigabyte for +[1592.92 --> 1593.32] example, +[1593.64 --> 1594.32] so your PC +[1594.32 --> 1594.74] motherboard +[1595.60 --> 1596.62] dual Thunderbolt +[1596.62 --> 1597.16] connections, +[1597.78 --> 1598.20] now, +[1598.34 --> 1598.96] all of a sudden, +[1599.04 --> 1599.88] you can create +[1599.88 --> 1601.42] a super-fast network +[1601.42 --> 1602.42] that can connect +[1602.42 --> 1603.24] to Thunderbolt +[1603.24 --> 1604.68] enabled expansion +[1604.68 --> 1605.64] devices such as +[1605.64 --> 1605.96] storage. +[1606.08 --> 1606.52] This makes +[1606.52 --> 1607.40] Thunderbolt a much +[1607.40 --> 1608.62] more feasible +[1608.62 --> 1609.46] option to me +[1609.46 --> 1610.24] because a lot +[1610.24 --> 1611.00] of what we do +[1611.00 --> 1612.72] is in a multi-user +[1612.72 --> 1614.04] working environment +[1614.04 --> 1614.68] where everyone +[1614.68 --> 1615.50] needs to access +[1615.50 --> 1616.50] the same resources +[1616.50 --> 1617.48] at the same time. +[1617.82 --> 1618.78] And for that reason, +[1619.26 --> 1620.30] Thunderbolt has just +[1620.30 --> 1621.62] made no sense to me +[1621.62 --> 1622.44] and the Mac Pro +[1622.44 --> 1623.12] in particular +[1623.12 --> 1624.00] has made no sense +[1624.00 --> 1624.50] to me because +[1624.50 --> 1625.24] it cannot be +[1625.24 --> 1626.24] expanded to +[1626.24 --> 1627.06] 10 gig Ethernet +[1627.06 --> 1628.14] without buying +[1628.14 --> 1628.72] a Thunderbolt +[1628.72 --> 1629.32] enclosure, +[1629.56 --> 1629.98] Thunderbolt to +[1629.98 --> 1630.48] PCI Express +[1630.48 --> 1630.96] enclosure, +[1631.32 --> 1631.88] and then putting +[1631.88 --> 1632.58] a 10 gig +[1632.58 --> 1633.54] Ethernet card +[1633.54 --> 1633.86] in there. +[1633.96 --> 1634.10] Now, +[1634.16 --> 1634.74] you're adapting +[1634.74 --> 1635.56] this to that +[1635.56 --> 1636.00] to that +[1636.00 --> 1636.52] to that +[1636.52 --> 1637.42] in order to +[1637.42 --> 1638.40] just access +[1638.40 --> 1639.60] a network resource +[1639.60 --> 1640.44] because it only +[1640.44 --> 1641.28] has one gigabit +[1641.28 --> 1642.02] Ethernet built +[1642.02 --> 1642.46] into it. +[1642.52 --> 1642.60] Well, +[1642.68 --> 1643.02] now, +[1643.46 --> 1643.80] Thunderbolt +[1643.80 --> 1644.24] looks a little +[1644.24 --> 1644.88] bit more feasible. +[1645.04 --> 1645.14] Now, +[1645.22 --> 1645.82] I do see +[1645.82 --> 1646.52] some negative +[1646.52 --> 1647.20] comments +[1647.20 --> 1648.12] about this +[1648.12 --> 1648.66] technology +[1648.66 --> 1650.10] and one person +[1650.10 --> 1650.96] put it pretty well +[1650.96 --> 1651.38] and said, +[1651.38 --> 1651.96] well, +[1651.96 --> 1652.80] this is ridiculous. +[1653.28 --> 1653.72] We're moving +[1653.72 --> 1654.98] away from +[1654.98 --> 1656.34] centralized switching +[1656.34 --> 1656.82] and we're going +[1656.82 --> 1657.24] back to what? +[1657.32 --> 1658.06] Like token ring? +[1658.46 --> 1659.24] So you actually +[1659.24 --> 1660.14] have to network +[1660.14 --> 1661.68] each computer +[1661.68 --> 1662.74] on a network. +[1662.88 --> 1663.06] You have to +[1663.06 --> 1663.44] like kind of +[1663.44 --> 1664.02] daisy chain +[1664.02 --> 1664.68] them all together +[1664.68 --> 1665.26] which feels +[1665.26 --> 1666.06] kind of stupid +[1666.06 --> 1666.96] but, +[1667.96 --> 1668.50] and I see +[1668.50 --> 1669.10] that point +[1669.10 --> 1670.02] but I also +[1670.02 --> 1670.94] see this as +[1670.94 --> 1671.96] a pretty good +[1671.96 --> 1673.30] intermediary solution +[1673.30 --> 1673.86] for folks +[1673.86 --> 1674.58] that don't want +[1674.58 --> 1675.08] to drop +[1675.08 --> 1675.66] you know, +[1675.88 --> 1676.70] 300 to 500 +[1676.70 --> 1677.58] bucks per adapter +[1677.58 --> 1678.38] on 10 gigabit +[1678.38 --> 1679.12] Ethernet cards +[1679.12 --> 1680.46] and then +[1680.46 --> 1681.22] build themselves +[1681.22 --> 1681.70] a NAS +[1681.70 --> 1682.32] or whatever else. +[1682.40 --> 1682.70] So now you can +[1682.70 --> 1683.08] just buy a +[1683.08 --> 1683.38] Thunderbolt +[1683.38 --> 1683.76] enclosure +[1683.76 --> 1684.30] and go ahead +[1684.30 --> 1685.44] and do that. +[1685.56 --> 1686.22] So they showed +[1686.22 --> 1687.08] off transfer speeds +[1687.08 --> 1688.38] of 150 megabytes +[1688.38 --> 1688.90] per second +[1688.90 --> 1689.22] which, +[1689.70 --> 1690.72] not actually +[1690.72 --> 1692.16] that impressive +[1692.16 --> 1692.94] we'd be looking +[1692.94 --> 1693.20] at. +[1693.34 --> 1693.86] We would want +[1693.86 --> 1695.20] wait a minute +[1695.20 --> 1695.54] hold on +[1695.54 --> 1696.28] yeah, +[1696.46 --> 1697.28] we'd want to see +[1697.28 --> 1697.94] quite a bit higher +[1697.94 --> 1698.42] than that +[1698.42 --> 1699.24] for 10 gigabit +[1699.24 --> 1700.36] but at least +[1700.36 --> 1701.24] it's handled +[1701.24 --> 1702.32] or at least +[1702.32 --> 1702.92] it's working. +[1703.70 --> 1704.08] Now, +[1705.02 --> 1705.76] in line with +[1705.76 --> 1706.30] the whole +[1706.30 --> 1706.98] Thunderbolt +[1706.98 --> 1707.54] expansion +[1707.54 --> 1708.34] versus internal +[1708.34 --> 1708.88] expansion +[1708.88 --> 1709.74] conversation +[1709.74 --> 1710.32] that inevitably +[1710.32 --> 1710.88] comes up +[1710.88 --> 1711.24] whenever we +[1711.24 --> 1711.68] talk about +[1711.68 --> 1712.18] Mac these +[1712.18 --> 1712.52] days +[1712.52 --> 1713.74] we actually +[1713.74 --> 1714.20] have a +[1714.20 --> 1714.98] Hackintosh +[1714.98 --> 1715.78] build guide +[1715.78 --> 1716.46] coming very +[1716.46 --> 1716.88] soon +[1716.88 --> 1717.50] and I'm +[1717.50 --> 1717.74] going to +[1717.74 --> 1718.28] cover this +[1718.28 --> 1718.86] in quite a +[1718.86 --> 1719.16] bit more +[1719.16 --> 1719.46] depth +[1719.46 --> 1719.80] in that +[1719.80 --> 1720.16] video +[1720.16 --> 1720.62] but +[1720.62 --> 1722.32] in that +[1722.32 --> 1722.90] build guide +[1722.90 --> 1723.28] I guess +[1723.28 --> 1723.52] I, +[1723.68 --> 1724.06] you know +[1724.06 --> 1724.70] I have +[1724.70 --> 1725.12] notes in +[1725.12 --> 1725.26] here +[1725.26 --> 1725.48] that I +[1725.48 --> 1725.80] wanted to +[1725.80 --> 1726.18] talk about +[1726.18 --> 1726.32] that +[1726.32 --> 1726.52] but I +[1726.52 --> 1726.66] guess +[1726.66 --> 1726.78] I +[1726.78 --> 1726.94] kind +[1726.94 --> 1727.02] of +[1727.02 --> 1727.20] talked +[1727.20 --> 1727.38] about +[1727.38 --> 1727.48] it +[1727.48 --> 1727.76] already +[1727.76 --> 1728.06] because +[1728.06 --> 1728.22] I +[1728.22 --> 1728.44] talk +[1728.44 --> 1728.74] about +[1728.74 --> 1729.20] the +[1729.20 --> 1729.66] merits +[1729.66 --> 1730.16] of +[1730.16 --> 1730.56] Thunderbolt +[1730.56 --> 1731.06] expansion +[1731.06 --> 1731.58] versus +[1731.58 --> 1732.26] PCI +[1732.26 --> 1732.62] Express +[1732.62 --> 1733.10] expansion +[1733.10 --> 1733.60] and how +[1733.60 --> 1734.74] one can +[1734.74 --> 1735.52] be beneficial +[1735.52 --> 1735.86] or the +[1735.86 --> 1736.00] other +[1736.00 --> 1736.24] can be +[1736.24 --> 1736.60] beneficial +[1736.60 --> 1737.00] but I +[1737.00 --> 1737.18] guess +[1737.18 --> 1737.38] I'll +[1737.38 --> 1737.54] just +[1737.54 --> 1737.70] do +[1737.70 --> 1737.90] this +[1737.90 --> 1738.12] then +[1738.12 --> 1738.58] I'll +[1738.58 --> 1738.86] tease +[1738.86 --> 1739.02] our +[1739.02 --> 1739.34] upcoming +[1739.34 --> 1739.90] Hackintosh +[1739.90 --> 1740.22] video +[1740.22 --> 1740.84] it's +[1740.84 --> 1741.50] scripted +[1741.50 --> 1741.88] and +[1741.88 --> 1742.42] shot +[1742.42 --> 1742.92] and +[1742.92 --> 1743.20] sitting +[1743.20 --> 1743.36] in +[1743.36 --> 1743.66] editing +[1743.66 --> 1743.96] now +[1743.96 --> 1744.16] so +[1744.16 --> 1744.34] you +[1744.34 --> 1744.54] should +[1744.54 --> 1744.74] be +[1744.74 --> 1745.10] expecting +[1745.10 --> 1745.44] to see +[1745.44 --> 1745.62] that +[1745.62 --> 1745.96] sometime +[1745.96 --> 1746.54] about +[1746.54 --> 1746.90] mid +[1746.90 --> 1747.26] next +[1747.26 --> 1747.64] week +[1747.64 --> 1748.36] editing +[1748.36 --> 1748.74] takes +[1748.74 --> 1749.36] so long +[1749.36 --> 1749.62] these +[1749.62 --> 1749.96] days +[1749.96 --> 1750.52] it's +[1750.52 --> 1751.10] great +[1751.10 --> 1751.32] that +[1751.32 --> 1751.48] we're +[1751.48 --> 1751.70] able +[1751.70 --> 1752.00] to +[1752.00 --> 1753.22] deliver +[1753.22 --> 1753.50] so +[1753.50 --> 1753.76] much +[1753.76 --> 1754.00] better +[1754.00 --> 1754.42] production +[1754.42 --> 1754.84] values +[1754.84 --> 1755.02] than +[1755.02 --> 1755.14] we +[1755.14 --> 1755.36] used +[1755.36 --> 1755.52] to +[1755.52 --> 1755.88] but +[1755.88 --> 1756.50] it +[1756.50 --> 1756.68] is +[1756.68 --> 1757.00] so +[1757.00 --> 1757.70] expensive +[1757.70 --> 1758.00] you +[1758.00 --> 1758.26] guys +[1758.26 --> 1758.40] and +[1758.40 --> 1758.52] it +[1758.52 --> 1758.66] is +[1758.66 --> 1758.90] so +[1758.90 --> 1759.36] time +[1759.36 --> 1759.84] consuming +[1759.84 --> 1760.44] to +[1760.44 --> 1760.64] make +[1760.64 --> 1761.10] videos +[1761.10 --> 1761.48] like +[1761.48 --> 1761.78] the +[1761.78 --> 1763.20] HTC1 +[1763.20 --> 1763.64] M8 +[1763.64 --> 1763.96] video +[1763.96 --> 1764.16] that +[1764.16 --> 1764.28] we +[1764.28 --> 1764.60] released +[1764.60 --> 1764.94] last +[1764.94 --> 1765.26] night +[1765.26 --> 1765.86] where +[1765.86 --> 1766.24] that's +[1766.24 --> 1766.54] like +[1766.54 --> 1767.02] I +[1767.02 --> 1767.26] was +[1767.26 --> 1767.86] talking +[1767.86 --> 1768.02] to +[1768.02 --> 1768.30] Jack +[1768.30 --> 1768.60] from +[1768.60 --> 1769.38] NCIX +[1769.38 --> 1769.88] today +[1769.88 --> 1770.80] and +[1770.80 --> 1770.98] he +[1770.98 --> 1771.16] was +[1771.16 --> 1771.46] saying +[1771.46 --> 1771.96] that +[1771.96 --> 1773.46] you +[1773.46 --> 1773.70] know +[1773.70 --> 1773.98] blah +[1773.98 --> 1774.10] blah +[1774.10 --> 1774.38] blah +[1774.38 --> 1775.02] video +[1775.02 --> 1775.40] production +[1775.40 --> 1775.66] this +[1775.66 --> 1775.88] video +[1775.88 --> 1776.30] production +[1776.30 --> 1776.74] that +[1776.74 --> 1777.48] we +[1777.48 --> 1777.58] were +[1777.58 --> 1777.72] just +[1777.72 --> 1777.86] kind +[1777.86 --> 1777.94] of +[1777.94 --> 1778.22] talking

+[2372.12 --> 2373.16] and +[2373.16 --> 2374.54] you know +[2374.54 --> 2374.84] what +[2374.84 --> 2376.96] before I +[2376.96 --> 2377.38] had my +[2377.38 --> 2377.84] hands on +[2377.84 --> 2378.34] the M8 +[2378.34 --> 2379.70] I probably +[2379.70 --> 2380.14] would have +[2380.14 --> 2380.76] said no +[2380.76 --> 2382.10] and +[2382.10 --> 2383.22] when I +[2383.22 --> 2383.56] get my +[2383.56 --> 2384.14] hands on +[2384.14 --> 2384.46] some of +[2384.46 --> 2384.72] the new +[2384.72 --> 2384.96] stuff +[2384.96 --> 2385.26] that's +[2385.26 --> 2385.60] coming +[2385.60 --> 2386.18] like the +[2386.18 --> 2386.70] OnePlus +[2386.70 --> 2387.44] 1 +[2387.44 --> 2389.16] I might +[2389.16 --> 2389.64] say no +[2389.64 --> 2390.12] again +[2390.12 --> 2391.04] but the +[2391.04 --> 2391.60] experience +[2391.60 --> 2392.04] of using +[2392.04 --> 2392.60] the M8 +[2392.60 --> 2393.70] really does +[2393.70 --> 2394.24] justify +[2394.24 --> 2395.36] maybe not +[2395.36 --> 2395.90] as a +[2395.90 --> 2396.36] discrete +[2396.36 --> 2396.94] handset +[2396.94 --> 2397.28] purchase +[2397.28 --> 2397.62] like if +[2397.62 --> 2397.86] I was +[2397.86 --> 2398.18] someone who +[2398.18 --> 2398.50] bought my +[2398.50 --> 2398.76] phones +[2398.76 --> 2399.12] outright +[2399.12 --> 2399.88] so I'm +[2399.88 --> 2400.20] spending +[2400.20 --> 2400.84] twice as +[2400.84 --> 2401.06] much +[2401.06 --> 2401.42] on it +[2401.42 --> 2402.02] maybe it +[2402.02 --> 2402.20] doesn't +[2402.20 --> 2402.62] justify it +[2402.62 --> 2402.82] for me +[2402.82 --> 2403.14] but it +[2403.14 --> 2403.42] does +[2403.42 --> 2403.92] justify +[2403.92 --> 2404.16] the +[2404.16 --> 2404.58] additional +[2404.58 --> 2405.10] expense +[2405.10 --> 2405.68] if I'm +[2405.68 --> 2406.12] someone who +[2406.12 --> 2406.52] buys on +[2406.52 --> 2406.96] a carrier +[2406.96 --> 2407.48] contract +[2407.48 --> 2408.24] with a +[2408.24 --> 2408.78] subsidized +[2408.78 --> 2409.10] phone +[2409.10 --> 2409.40] so I'm +[2409.40 --> 2409.94] only paying +[2409.94 --> 2410.16] another +[2410.16 --> 2410.42] couple +[2410.76 --> 2411.06] dollars +[2411.06 --> 2411.48] for it +[2411.48 --> 2412.16] I think +[2412.16 --> 2412.68] there is +[2412.68 --> 2413.38] still room +[2413.38 --> 2414.20] for premium +[2414.20 --> 2414.62] phones +[2414.62 --> 2415.16] with premium +[2415.16 --> 2415.56] features +[2415.56 --> 2416.16] that really +[2416.16 --> 2416.70] do feel +[2416.70 --> 2417.28] different +[2417.28 --> 2418.32] from plastic +[2418.32 --> 2418.76] phones +[2418.76 --> 2419.54] with plastic +[2419.54 --> 2420.00] features +[2420.00 --> 2421.44] for Samsung +[2421.44 --> 2422.04] on the other +[2422.04 --> 2422.36] hand +[2422.36 --> 2423.12] not sure +[2423.12 --> 2423.58] that I feel +[2423.58 --> 2423.98] the same +[2423.98 --> 2424.30] way +[2424.30 --> 2424.98] where it's +[2424.98 --> 2425.40] just like +[2425.40 --> 2425.64] oh +[2425.64 --> 2426.46] like wave +[2426.46 --> 2427.02] at the phone +[2427.02 --> 2427.34] in order +[2427.34 --> 2427.72] to enable +[2427.72 --> 2428.16] more features +[2428.16 --> 2429.04] but like I +[2429.04 --> 2429.72] said I haven't +[2429.72 --> 2430.24] actually been +[2430.24 --> 2430.68] hands-on +[2430.68 --> 2431.32] with the S5 +[2431.32 --> 2431.98] I haven't +[2431.98 --> 2432.36] heard back +[2432.36 --> 2432.68] from them +[2432.68 --> 2433.14] yet so I'm +[2433.14 --> 2433.52] not sure +[2433.52 --> 2433.76] if they're +[2433.76 --> 2433.98] going to be +[2433.98 --> 2434.38] sending me +[2434.38 --> 2434.58] one +[2434.58 --> 2435.22] I did say +[2435.22 --> 2435.60] that I would +[2435.60 --> 2436.02] talk about +[2436.02 --> 2436.30] it on +[2436.30 --> 2436.76] WANshow +[2436.76 --> 2437.48] even if I +[2437.48 --> 2437.78] don't do +[2437.78 --> 2438.22] a dedicated +[2440.76 --> 2441.30] even if it's +[2441.30 --> 2441.46] not +[2441.46 --> 2442.12] right I +[2442.12 --> 2442.40] remember +[2442.40 --> 2442.70] where I +[2442.70 --> 2443.04] was going +[2443.04 --> 2443.36] with that +[2443.36 --> 2443.88] whole spiel +[2443.88 --> 2444.28] before +[2444.28 --> 2445.90] is the +[2445.90 --> 2446.72] reason that +[2446.72 --> 2447.22] I ask for +[2447.22 --> 2447.56] a keeper +[2447.56 --> 2447.90] unit +[2447.90 --> 2448.74] is because +[2448.74 --> 2449.92] I don't +[2449.92 --> 2450.64] feel like +[2450.64 --> 2451.34] setting it +[2451.34 --> 2452.18] up and +[2452.18 --> 2453.02] actually using +[2453.02 --> 2453.56] it if I'm +[2453.56 --> 2453.84] not going +[2453.84 --> 2454.22] to actually +[2454.22 --> 2454.60] use it +[2454.60 --> 2454.82] enough +[2454.82 --> 2455.18] I'm just +[2455.18 --> 2455.38] going to +[2455.38 --> 2455.80] have to +[2455.80 --> 2456.44] wipe all +[2456.44 --> 2456.94] my pictures +[2456.94 --> 2457.52] and wipe +[2457.52 --> 2457.88] all of my +[2457.88 --> 2458.44] settings off +[2458.44 --> 2458.70] of it +[2458.70 --> 2459.06] shortly +[2459.06 --> 2459.80] and then +[2459.80 --> 2460.54] go and +[2460.54 --> 2461.06] you know +[2461.06 --> 2462.54] re-sync +[2462.54 --> 2463.42] my actual +[2463.42 --> 2464.14] daily driver +[2464.14 --> 2464.70] back to +[2464.70 --> 2464.88] it +[2464.88 --> 2465.40] I mean +[2465.40 --> 2465.80] it's one +[2465.80 --> 2466.38] thing if I +[2466.38 --> 2466.66] end up +[2466.66 --> 2467.04] doing that +[2467.04 --> 2467.36] anyway +[2467.36 --> 2467.94] because I +[2467.94 --> 2468.22] don't end +[2468.22 --> 2468.60] up liking +[2468.60 --> 2469.14] the device +[2469.14 --> 2469.80] but that's +[2469.80 --> 2470.48] that comes +[2470.48 --> 2470.76] with the +[2470.76 --> 2471.08] territory +[2471.08 --> 2471.84] it's another +[2471.84 --> 2472.68] thing if I +[2472.68 --> 2472.96] end up +[2472.96 --> 2473.40] liking the +[2473.40 --> 2474.24] device and +[2474.24 --> 2474.76] it becomes +[2474.76 --> 2475.48] my favorite +[2475.48 --> 2476.46] device which +[2476.46 --> 2477.18] hasn't yet +[2477.18 --> 2477.68] happened with +[2477.68 --> 2478.02] a Samsung +[2478.02 --> 2478.58] device so it +[2478.58 --> 2478.98] hasn't really +[2478.98 --> 2479.24] been that +[2479.24 --> 2479.52] big of an +[2479.52 --> 2479.80] issue but +[2479.80 --> 2480.00] if it +[2480.00 --> 2480.50] becomes my +[2480.50 --> 2480.74] favorite +[2480.74 --> 2481.76] device and +[2481.76 --> 2482.14] then I +[2482.14 --> 2482.68] send it +[2482.68 --> 2483.30] away I +[2483.30 --> 2483.58] go back +[2483.58 --> 2483.86] to using +[2483.86 --> 2484.16] something +[2484.16 --> 2485.06] else new +[2485.06 --> 2485.78] devices roll +[2485.78 --> 2486.24] in and I +[2486.24 --> 2486.50] want to +[2486.50 --> 2487.04] compare them +[2487.04 --> 2487.64] against something +[2487.64 --> 2487.94] that I +[2487.94 --> 2488.44] really like +[2488.44 --> 2488.62] and I +[2488.62 --> 2488.90] don't even +[2488.90 --> 2489.40] have it in +[2489.40 --> 2489.84] my hands +[2489.84 --> 2490.18] anymore +[2490.18 --> 2491.14] I believe +[2491.14 --> 2491.74] that this +[2491.74 --> 2492.06] is where I +[2492.06 --> 2492.30] was trying +[2492.30 --> 2492.50] to go +[2492.50 --> 2492.78] with this +[2492.78 --> 2493.36] I believe +[2493.36 --> 2494.26] that comparative +[2494.26 --> 2494.86] analysis +[2494.86 --> 2495.92] needs to be +[2495.92 --> 2496.48] done side +[2496.48 --> 2497.16] by side +[2497.16 --> 2497.98] and not +[2497.98 --> 2498.68] from memory +[2498.68 --> 2499.58] that was +[2499.58 --> 2499.94] my whole +[2499.94 --> 2500.36] point with +[2500.36 --> 2500.84] that thing +[2500.84 --> 2502.34] jeez +[2502.34 --> 2504.82] alright so +[2504.82 --> 2505.52] let's go +[2505.52 --> 2506.38] aside from +[2506.38 --> 2507.14] being a waste +[2507.14 --> 2507.98] of time +[2507.98 --> 2508.34] and money +[2508.34 --> 2508.74] for me to +[2508.74 --> 2509.22] make a video +[2509.22 --> 2509.62] about it +[2509.62 --> 2509.90] when you're +[2509.90 --> 2510.22] not even +[2510.22 --> 2510.74] willing to +[2510.74 --> 2511.12] invest +[2511.12 --> 2511.84] you know +[2511.84 --> 2512.64] just well +[2512.64 --> 2512.98] here's the +[2512.98 --> 2513.48] product that +[2513.48 --> 2514.00] you're doing +[2514.00 --> 2514.44] us a favor +[2514.44 --> 2515.16] by generating +[2515.16 --> 2515.86] exposure for +[2515.86 --> 2517.20] or not doing +[2517.20 --> 2517.84] a favor if I +[2517.84 --> 2518.22] end up giving +[2518.22 --> 2518.56] a negative +[2518.56 --> 2519.06] review but +[2519.06 --> 2519.64] that comes +[2519.64 --> 2519.88] with the +[2519.88 --> 2520.20] territory +[2520.20 --> 2520.52] that's +[2520.52 --> 2520.66] any +[2520.66 --> 2521.26] reviewer +[2521.26 --> 2522.32] alright +[2522.32 --> 2523.96] speaking of +[2523.96 --> 2524.66] any reviewer +[2524.66 --> 2525.72] there are +[2525.72 --> 2526.36] any number +[2526.36 --> 2526.80] of different +[2526.80 --> 2527.36] reviews +[2527.36 --> 2528.20] on the +[2528.20 --> 2528.86] Radeon +[2528.86 --> 2530.96] R9 295 +[2530.96 --> 2531.62] X2 +[2531.62 --> 2532.92] except one +[2532.92 --> 2533.78] from yours +[2533.78 --> 2534.12] truly +[2534.12 --> 2534.66] because we +[2534.66 --> 2535.12] didn't get +[2535.12 --> 2535.54] seated a +[2535.54 --> 2535.74] unit +[2535.74 --> 2536.16] I've had +[2536.16 --> 2536.48] quite a +[2536.48 --> 2537.18] few people +[2537.18 --> 2537.82] complain +[2537.82 --> 2538.82] about the +[2538.82 --> 2539.14] fact that +[2539.14 --> 2539.44] we've been +[2539.44 --> 2539.84] uploading +[2539.84 --> 2540.92] speaker videos +[2540.92 --> 2541.74] as opposed +[2541.74 --> 2542.64] to an +[2542.64 --> 2544.56] R9 295 +[2544.56 --> 2544.98] X2 +[2544.98 --> 2545.34] video +[2545.34 --> 2546.56] and all +[2546.56 --> 2546.90] I could +[2546.90 --> 2547.48] really say +[2547.48 --> 2548.58] is there's +[2548.58 --> 2549.06] nothing I +[2549.06 --> 2549.50] can do +[2549.50 --> 2550.36] because AMD +[2550.36 --> 2550.72] didn't +[2550.72 --> 2551.08] see this +[2551.08 --> 2551.34] one +[2551.34 --> 2552.20] we were +[2552.20 --> 2552.66] included +[2552.66 --> 2553.08] in their +[2553.08 --> 2553.90] viral marketing +[2553.90 --> 2554.44] campaign +[2554.44 --> 2554.80] where they +[2554.80 --> 2555.06] sent +[2555.06 --> 2555.86] pictures +[2555.86 --> 2557.06] they sent +[2557.06 --> 2557.54] a picture +[2557.54 --> 2558.32] they sent +[2558.32 --> 2558.96] Pringles +[2558.96 --> 2559.56] and then +[2559.56 --> 2559.98] they sent +[2559.98 --> 2560.56] like this +[2560.56 --> 2561.28] disc that +[2561.28 --> 2561.94] had this +[2561.94 --> 2562.52] like video +[2562.52 --> 2562.94] on it +[2562.94 --> 2563.18] that I +[2563.18 --> 2563.56] didn't look +[2563.56 --> 2563.88] at and +[2563.88 --> 2564.18] then had +[2564.18 --> 2564.58] a slide +[2564.58 --> 2564.92] deck +[2564.92 --> 2565.54] that actually +[2565.54 --> 2565.86] told me +[2565.86 --> 2566.24] everything I +[2566.24 --> 2566.54] needed to +[2566.54 --> 2566.76] know about +[2566.76 --> 2567.18] the GPU +[2567.18 --> 2567.94] and then I +[2567.94 --> 2568.42] only found +[2568.42 --> 2568.84] out a few +[2568.84 --> 2569.28] days prior +[2569.28 --> 2569.72] to launch +[2569.72 --> 2569.94] when I +[2569.94 --> 2570.24] was like +[2570.24 --> 2570.74] hey +[2570.74 --> 2571.52] are you guys +[2571.52 --> 2571.74] going to +[2571.74 --> 2572.10] follow up +[2572.10 --> 2572.32] with a +[2572.32 --> 2572.62] card at +[2572.62 --> 2573.00] some point +[2573.00 --> 2573.24] here +[2573.24 --> 2573.72] that I +[2573.72 --> 2573.98] wasn't +[2573.98 --> 2574.22] getting +[2574.22 --> 2574.52] one +[2574.52 --> 2575.78] so I +[2575.78 --> 2576.24] didn't get +[2576.24 --> 2576.54] one +[2576.54 --> 2577.12] that's why +[2577.12 --> 2577.44] I couldn't +[2577.44 --> 2577.70] bring you +[2577.70 --> 2578.00] guys a +[2578.00 --> 2578.42] review of +[2578.42 --> 2578.52] it +[2578.52 --> 2579.08] unfortunately +[2579.08 --> 2579.98] I don't +[2579.98 --> 2580.34] think I +[2580.34 --> 2580.76] am going +[2580.76 --> 2581.16] to get +[2581.16 --> 2581.42] one +[2581.42 --> 2582.04] from AMD +[2582.04 --> 2583.02] I sent +[2583.02 --> 2584.28] a yo +[2584.28 --> 2584.84] what's +[2584.84 --> 2585.44] going on +[2585.44 --> 2586.16] follow up +[2586.16 --> 2587.46] and I +[2587.46 --> 2587.80] got a +[2587.80 --> 2588.30] response +[2588.30 --> 2588.90] that there +[2588.90 --> 2589.26]

will +[2723.22 --> 2723.40] be +[2723.40 --> 2723.76] able +[2723.76 --> 2724.02] to +[2724.02 --> 2724.50] buy +[2724.50 --> 2725.10] two +[2725.10 --> 2725.32] for +[2725.32 --> 2725.48] the +[2725.48 --> 2725.72] same +[2725.72 --> 2726.18] price +[2726.18 --> 2726.92] as +[2726.92 --> 2727.18] the +[2727.18 --> 2727.50] dual +[2727.50 --> 2728.46] GK110 +[2728.46 --> 2729.18] based +[2729.18 --> 2730.16] battleship +[2730.16 --> 2730.38] the +[2730.38 --> 2731.20] Titan Z +[2731.20 --> 2731.98] clearly +[2731.98 --> 2732.24] though +[2732.24 --> 2732.48] that +[2732.48 --> 2732.96] comparison +[2732.96 --> 2733.40] leaves +[2733.40 --> 2733.78] one +[2733.78 --> 2734.20] super +[2734.20 --> 2734.76] dreadnought +[2734.76 --> 2735.30] smoldering +[2735.30 --> 2735.60] that's a +[2735.60 --> 2735.72] quote +[2735.72 --> 2736.20] from Tom's +[2736.20 --> 2736.42] hardware +[2736.42 --> 2737.06] because +[2737.06 --> 2737.46] the +[2737.46 --> 2738.06] Titan Z +[2738.06 --> 2739.06] costs +[2739.06 --> 2740.34] $3,000 +[2740.34 --> 2741.04] or twice +[2741.04 --> 2741.54] the price +[2741.54 --> 2742.18] and is +[2742.18 --> 2742.52] probably +[2742.52 --> 2742.80] going to +[2742.80 --> 2743.12] perform +[2743.12 --> 2743.64] similarly +[2743.64 --> 2744.30] if not +[2744.30 --> 2744.70] actually +[2744.70 --> 2745.06] a little +[2745.06 --> 2745.26] bit +[2745.26 --> 2745.62] worse +[2745.62 --> 2745.96] with the +[2745.96 --> 2746.14] key +[2746.14 --> 2746.48] difference +[2746.48 --> 2746.72] being +[2746.72 --> 2746.86] that +[2746.86 --> 2746.94] it +[2746.94 --> 2747.02] is +[2747.02 --> 2747.26] air +[2747.26 --> 2747.58] cooled +[2747.58 --> 2748.06] but +[2748.06 --> 2748.30] would +[2748.30 --> 2748.44] you +[2748.44 --> 2748.90] really +[2748.90 --> 2749.52] pay +[2749.52 --> 2750.54] twice +[2750.54 --> 2750.74] as +[2750.74 --> 2751.12] much +[2751.12 --> 2751.40] for +[2751.40 --> 2751.62] air +[2751.62 --> 2751.86] cooling +[2751.86 --> 2752.10] versus +[2752.10 --> 2752.40] water +[2752.40 --> 2752.70] cooling +[2752.70 --> 2752.88] or +[2752.88 --> 2753.02] would +[2753.02 --> 2753.14] you +[2753.14 --> 2753.50] rather +[2753.50 --> 2753.82] buy +[2753.82 --> 2754.36] two +[2754.36 --> 2755.34] 295 +[2755.34 --> 2755.82] X2 +[2755.82 --> 2756.50] if you +[2756.50 --> 2756.68] can +[2756.68 --> 2756.94] figure +[2756.94 --> 2757.30] out +[2757.30 --> 2757.84] where +[2757.84 --> 2758.02] to +[2758.02 --> 2758.30] put +[2758.30 --> 2758.70] both +[2758.70 --> 2758.80] of +[2758.80 --> 2759.02] those +[2759.02 --> 2759.62] radiators +[2759.62 --> 2759.96] in fact +[2759.96 --> 2760.22] there are +[2760.22 --> 2760.42] some +[2760.42 --> 2760.70] cases +[2760.70 --> 2760.94] that +[2760.94 --> 2761.12] will +[2761.12 --> 2761.50] support +[2761.50 --> 2761.86] that +[2761.86 --> 2762.62] so +[2762.62 --> 2763.14] there's +[2763.14 --> 2763.36] the +[2763.36 --> 2763.78] overall +[2763.78 --> 2764.32] impressions +[2764.32 --> 2764.58] of the +[2764.58 --> 2765.10] 295 +[2765.10 --> 2765.50] X2 +[2765.50 --> 2766.02] I don't +[2766.02 --> 2766.22] think +[2766.22 --> 2766.62] I have +[2766.62 --> 2767.14] too much +[2767.14 --> 2767.56] else +[2767.56 --> 2768.46] to really +[2768.46 --> 2769.42] say about +[2769.42 --> 2769.72] it +[2769.72 --> 2770.46] other than +[2770.46 --> 2770.80] that +[2770.80 --> 2771.60] I do +[2771.60 --> 2773.46] appreciate +[2773.46 --> 2774.60] what AMD +[2774.60 --> 2775.10] has done +[2775.10 --> 2775.44] with their +[2775.44 --> 2776.24] last two +[2776.24 --> 2776.78] dual GPU +[2776.78 --> 2777.24] cards +[2777.24 --> 2777.58] so +[2777.58 --> 2778.62] with the +[2778.62 --> 2780.54] shoot +[2780.54 --> 2781.06] I can't even +[2781.06 --> 2781.82] remember their +[2781.82 --> 2782.44] bloody branding +[2782.44 --> 2782.88] for the thing +[2782.88 --> 2783.80] the 7990 +[2783.80 --> 2784.36] there we go +[2784.36 --> 2784.92] with the +[2784.92 --> 2785.30] 79 +[2785.30 --> 2785.94] they change +[2785.94 --> 2786.10] it +[2786.10 --> 2786.94] every generation +[2786.94 --> 2787.34] they've done +[2787.34 --> 2787.68] it again +[2787.68 --> 2788.02] it's like +[2788.02 --> 2788.34] is it a +[2788.34 --> 2789.40] 3870 X2 +[2789.40 --> 2789.98] or is it a +[2789.98 --> 2792.32] 4870 X2 +[2792.32 --> 2793.10] or is it a +[2793.10 --> 2795.02] 5990 +[2795.02 --> 2795.44] or whatever +[2795.44 --> 2796.00] they call that +[2796.00 --> 2796.14] thing +[2796.14 --> 2796.54] they change +[2796.54 --> 2796.78] it every +[2796.78 --> 2797.10] generation +[2797.10 --> 2797.54] so with the +[2797.54 --> 2798.44] 7990 +[2798.44 --> 2799.98] they introduced +[2799.98 --> 2801.38] an open air +[2801.38 --> 2801.88] cooler +[2801.88 --> 2802.84] and this was +[2802.84 --> 2803.58] because they +[2803.58 --> 2804.04] had to +[2804.04 --> 2804.46] in order to +[2804.46 --> 2804.74] keep the +[2804.74 --> 2805.14] bloody thing +[2805.14 --> 2805.40] cool +[2805.40 --> 2805.94] so what that +[2805.94 --> 2806.20] meant +[2806.20 --> 2806.54] was +[2806.54 --> 2807.26] worse case +[2807.26 --> 2807.76] temperatures +[2807.76 --> 2808.44] but better +[2808.44 --> 2808.88] GPU +[2808.88 --> 2809.44] temperatures +[2809.44 --> 2810.80] and I +[2810.80 --> 2811.10] looked at +[2811.10 --> 2811.36] that and +[2811.36 --> 2811.50] I went +[2811.50 --> 2811.80] that's +[2811.80 --> 2812.20] great +[2812.20 --> 2813.20] why are +[2813.20 --> 2813.82] we relying +[2813.82 --> 2815.08] on the +[2815.08 --> 2816.38] GPU +[2816.38 --> 2817.06] card +[2817.06 --> 2817.86] manufacturers +[2817.86 --> 2818.68] to give +[2818.68 --> 2819.20] us these +[2819.20 --> 2819.92] non-reference +[2819.92 --> 2820.82] cooler designs +[2820.82 --> 2821.42] that keep +[2821.42 --> 2821.86] the GPU +[2821.86 --> 2822.22] cooler +[2822.22 --> 2822.96] I understand +[2822.96 --> 2823.70] that blower +[2823.70 --> 2824.54] designs are +[2824.54 --> 2825.08] better for +[2825.08 --> 2825.72] certain builds +[2825.72 --> 2826.34] but when we're +[2826.34 --> 2826.86] talking dual +[2826.86 --> 2827.60] GPU cards +[2827.60 --> 2828.14] I think +[2828.14 --> 2829.12] we're talking +[2829.12 --> 2829.74] about systems +[2829.74 --> 2830.40] that better have +[2830.40 --> 2830.80] some airflow +[2830.80 --> 2831.24] through them +[2831.24 --> 2831.48] anyway +[2831.48 --> 2832.14] so I appreciated +[2832.14 --> 2832.92] that and I +[2832.92 --> 2833.66] appreciate once +[2833.66 --> 2834.84] again that AMD +[2834.84 --> 2835.80] has made this +[2835.80 --> 2836.88] card water cooling +[2836.88 --> 2838.52] out of the box +[2838.52 --> 2839.68] so yeah +[2839.68 --> 2840.48] it's only a +[2840.48 --> 2841.26] single 120 +[2841.26 --> 2841.68] millimeter +[2841.68 --> 2842.24] radiator +[2842.24 --> 2843.40] and yeah +[2843.40 --> 2843.88] it's an +[2843.88 --> 2844.36] ace attack +[2844.36 --> 2844.82] all-in-one +[2844.82 --> 2845.22] solution +[2845.22 --> 2845.66] so it's not +[2845.66 --> 2845.96] the greatest +[2845.96 --> 2846.30] performing +[2846.30 --> 2846.68] thing in the +[2846.68 --> 2846.86] world +[2846.86 --> 2848.16] but what I +[2848.16 --> 2848.80] think a lot +[2848.80 --> 2849.12] of people +[2849.12 --> 2849.70] were surprised +[2849.70 --> 2850.28] to discover +[2850.28 --> 2851.16] is that on +[2851.16 --> 2851.66] a graphics +[2851.66 --> 2852.12] card you +[2852.12 --> 2852.90] don't need +[2852.90 --> 2853.34] the greatest +[2853.34 --> 2853.70] thing in +[2853.70 --> 2854.14] the world +[2854.14 --> 2854.76] in order +[2854.76 --> 2855.30] to still +[2855.30 --> 2856.36] get really +[2856.36 --> 2857.26] really impressive +[2857.26 --> 2857.76] thermals +[2857.76 --> 2858.22] like I've +[2858.22 --> 2858.82] seen reports +[2858.82 --> 2859.26] around the +[2859.26 --> 2859.92] web of +[2859.92 --> 2860.42] these cards +[2860.42 --> 2861.04] running as +[2861.04 --> 2861.78] low as +[2861.78 --> 2862.20] you know +[2862.20 --> 2862.74] 60 to +[2862.74 --> 2863.68] 70 degrees +[2863.68 --> 2864.60] under load +[2864.60 --> 2865.96] that's running +[2865.96 --> 2866.90] at full speed +[2866.90 --> 2868.60] because people +[2868.60 --> 2869.70] look at their +[2869.70 --> 2871.12] CPU and the +[2871.12 --> 2871.76] temperatures a +[2871.76 --> 2872.62] CPU runs at +[2872.62 --> 2873.70] and they look +[2873.70 --> 2874.24] at their GPU +[2874.24 --> 2875.02] and they look +[2875.02 --> 2875.28] at the +[2875.28 --> 2875.86] temperatures a +[2875.86 --> 2876.62] GPU runs at +[2876.62 --> 2877.16] and I think +[2877.16 --> 2877.76] the assumption +[2877.76 --> 2879.16] is that there's +[2879.16 --> 2879.92] some kind of +[2879.92 --> 2881.36] correlation between +[2881.36 --> 2882.22] something's +[2882.22 --> 2883.48] temperature and +[2883.48 --> 2884.08] the amount of +[2884.08 --> 2885.08] heat that it is +[2885.08 --> 2885.66] outputting +[2885.66 --> 2886.52] but there isn't +[2886.52 --> 2888.08] your CPU has +[2888.08 --> 2889.12] a much more +[2889.12 --> 2890.08] optimized cooler +[2890.08 --> 2890.64] on it because +[2890.64 --> 2891.40] it has a lot +[2891.40 --> 2892.20] more space +[2892.20 --> 2892.96] so just because +[2892.96 --> 2893.50] they both run +[2893.50 --> 2894.22] at 80 degrees +[2894.22 --> 2895.20] doesn't mean +[2895.20 --> 2895.84] that a GPU +[2895.84 --> 2896.78] actually kicks +[2896.78 --> 2897.42] out that much +[2897.42 --> 2898.06] heat compared +[2898.06 --> 2898.70] to a CPU +[2898.70 --> 2899.76] so just because +[2899.76 --> 2900.32] you could throw +[2900.32 --> 2901.08] an overclocked +[2901.08 --> 2902.18] CPU on a +[2902.18 --> 2903.30] slim 120mm +[2903.30 --> 2904.22] radiator design +[2904.22 --> 2904.98] and you still +[2904.98 --> 2905.70] get like you +[2905.70 --> 2906.50] know 80-90 +[2906.50 --> 2907.30] degrees on it +[2907.30 --> 2908.52] it's like yeah +[2908.52 --> 2909.40] why did I even +[2909.40 --> 2909.94] do that +[2909.94 --> 2910.64] when you throw +[2910.64 --> 2911.38] that on two +[2911.38 --> 2912.62] GPUs you can +[2912.62 --> 2913.28] get great +[2913.28 --> 2914.48] results because +[2914.48 --> 2915.32] now you're +[2915.32 --> 2915.84] taking that +[2915.84 --> 2916.46] cooling out of +[2916.46 --> 2917.42] that horrible +[2917.42 --> 2918.20] form factor +[2918.20 --> 2919.46] that dual slot +[2919.46 --> 2920.12] form factor +[2920.12 --> 2920.70] that's just +[2920.70 --> 2921.54] totally inadequate +[2921.54 --> 2922.36] and you're +[2922.36 --> 2922.98] moving it to +[2922.98 --> 2923.68] a nice big +[2923.68 --> 2925.04] 120mm fan +[2925.04 --> 2925.86] that's getting +[2925.86 --> 2926.52] the heat from +[2926.52 --> 2927.24] those GPUs +[2927.24 --> 2927.72] carried to +[2927.72 --> 2928.56] it by water +[2928.56 --> 2929.18] which is much +[2929.18 --> 2929.66] more efficient +[2929.66 --> 2930.10] than air +[2930.10 --> 2931.22] so I think +[2931.22 --> 2931.92] that's a really +[2931.92 --> 2932.64] innovative really +[2932.64 --> 2933.34] cool thing that +[2933.34 --> 2934.20] AMD has done +[2934.20 --> 2935.24] with the +[2935.24 --> 2936.54] what's what's +[2936.54 --> 2936.84] I'm saying +[2936.84 --> 2937.44] what's incorrect +[2937.44 --> 2938.24] hold on +[2938.24 --> 2939.96] I'm curious now +[2939.96 --> 2940.60] twitch chat +[2940.60 --> 2941.12] someone's saying +[2941.12 --> 2941.58] I'm incorrect +[2941.58 --> 2942.30] about something +[2942.30 --> 2947.92] no I don't +[2947.92 --> 2948.08] know what you're +[2948.08 --> 2948.42] talking about +[2948.42 --> 2948.66] anymore +[2948.66 --> 2949.68] oh someone says +[2949.68 --> 2950.44] that's incorrect +[2950.44 --> 2952.16] I'm pretty sure +[2952.16 --> 2952.78] that nothing I +[2952.78 --> 2953.34] said there was +[2953.34 --> 2954.24] actually incorrect +[2954.24 --> 2956.00] yeah +[2956.00 --> 2956.90] okay +[2956.90 --> 2958.10] anyway +[2958.10 --> 2959.80] someone asked +[2959.80 --> 2960.32] where's Luke +[2960.32 --> 2961.12] he's at PAX +[2961.12 --> 2961.98] so there +[2961.98 --> 2962.66] I did some +[2962.66 --> 2963.24] twitch chat +[2963.24 --> 2963.86] interaction +[2963.86 --> 2964.54] especially now +[2964.54 --> 2965.04] that it's +[2965.04 --> 2966.00] now that it's +[2966.00 --> 2966.78] not a total +[2966.78 --> 2967.98] disaster in there +[2967.98 --> 2968.58] you know what +[2968.58 --> 2969.30] speaking of total +[2969.30 --> 2969.86] disasters +[2969.86 --> 2970.64] this isn't a +[2970.64 --> 2971.20] total disaster +[2971.20 --> 2971.48] at all +[2971.48 --> 2971.98] but let's go +[2971.98 --> 2972.54] ahead and get +[2972.54 --> 2972.98] into our +[2972.98 --> 2973.60] sponsor break +[2973.60 --> 2973.78] here +[2973.78 --> 2974.16] so +[2974.16 --> 2975.28] our first +[2975.28 --> 2975.88] sponsor of the +[2975.88 --> 2976.52] show today +[2976.52 --> 2978.00] is ASUS +[2978.00 --> 2979.92] this my friends +[2979.92 --> 2982.42] is the G750JZ +[2982.42 --> 2983.50] and what I really +[2983.50 --> 2984.32] wanted to be able +[2984.32 --> 2985.34] to do on our +[2985.34 --> 2986.14] first spot +[2986.14 --> 2987.48] for ASUS's new +[2987.48 --> 2988.58] ultimate performance +[2988.58 --> 2989.34] gaming notebook +[2989.34 --> 2991.20] was have used it +[2991.20 --> 2991.88] a fair bit +[2991.88 --> 2993.04] and tell you a little +[2993.04 --> 2993.56] bit about the +[2993.56 --> 2994.36] gaming performance +[2994.36 --> 2995.34] and a little bit +[2995.34 --> 2995.98] about what it's +[2995.98 --> 2996.70] like to use it +[2996.70 --> 2997.64] but unfortunately +[2997.64 --> 2998.96] Luke took the +[2998.96 --> 2999.84] one that I +[2999.84 --> 3000.96] started setting up +[3000.96 --> 3001.78] so I was able to +[3001.78 --> 3002.80] use a couple of +[3002.80 --> 3003.04] things +[3003.04 --> 3003.72] I definitely +[3003.72 --> 3004.52] appreciate their +[3004.52 --> 3005.00] new keyboard +[3005.00 --> 3005.44] implementation +[3005.44 --> 3006.02] with nice +[3006.02 --> 3006.90] long travel time +[3006.90 --> 3007.66] and I was able +[3007.66 --> 3008.12] to set up a +[3008.12 --> 3008.38] couple of +[3008.38 --> 3008.56] things +[3008.56 --> 3009.02] I definitely +[3009.02 --> 3009.70] appreciate the +[3009.70 --> 3010.20] looks and the +[3010.20 --> 3010.56] fact that it +[3010.56 --> 3011.28] actually runs +[3011.28 --> 3012.14] cool enough +[3012.14 --> 3012.88] that I'm running +[3012.88 --> 3013.50] this thing on +[3013.50 --> 3014.26] my lap +[3014.26 --> 3014.76] right now +[3014.76 --> 3015.32] which you can't +[3015.32 --> 3016.02] always say about +[3016.02 --> 3016.58] gaming grade +[3016.58 --> 3016.96] notebooks +[3016.96 --> 3018.72] Luke took it +[3018.72 --> 3019.18] from me +[3019.18 --> 3019.82] and was like +[3019.82 --> 3020.64] oh hey +[3020.64 --> 3021.50] that's our +[3021.50 --> 3022.10] editing machine +[3022.10 --> 3022.76] for PAX East +[3022.76 --> 3023.28] bye +[3023.28 --> 3025.18] so I was like +[3025.18 --> 3026.12] okay I was +[3026.12 --> 3026.68] actually gonna +[3026.68 --> 3027.46] use that +[3027.46 --> 3028.58] so we do +[3028.58 --> 3029.22] have two of +[3029.22 --> 3029.86] them so each +[3029.86 --> 3030.40] of us will be +[3030.40 --> 3031.08] using them for +[3031.08 --> 3031.72] about the next +[3031.72 --> 3032.46] eight weeks +[3032.46 --> 3033.00] which will give +[3033.00 --> 3033.62] you guys by +[3033.62 --> 3034.20] the end of it +[3034.20 --> 3034.82] a pretty good +[3034.82 --> 3035.42] idea of what +[3035.42 --> 3035.92] it's like for +[3035.92 --> 3036.34] us to use +[3036.34 --> 3036.62] them we'll +[3036.62 --> 3037.24] definitely talk +[3037.24 --> 3037.58] about our +[3037.58 --> 3038.16] impressions on +[3038.16 --> 3038.76] the show here +[3038.76 --> 3039.90] but it just +[3039.90 --> 3040.48] means that the +[3040.48 --> 3040.96] one that I had +[3040.96 --> 3041.68] set up wasn't +[3041.68 --> 3042.26] set up and I +[3042.26 --> 3042.76] had to like +[3042.76 --> 3043.40] pull it out of +[3043.40 --> 3044.12] the box now +[3044.12 --> 3044.56] at the last +[3044.56 --> 3044.98] minute get +[3044.98 --> 3045.60] everything installed +[3045.60 --> 3046.14] on it in order +[3046.14 --> 3046.94] to just do the +[3046.94 --> 3048.46] show at all +[3048.46 --> 3049.30] today but what +[3049.30 --> 3050.08] it also means is +[3050.08 --> 3050.90] it gives me a +[3050.90 --> 3051.74] way to talk +[3051.74 --> 3052.76] about the ways +[3052.76 --> 3053.66] that these high +[3053.66 --> 3054.58] performance notebooks +[3054.58 --> 3055.84] can be used +[3055.84 --> 3056.88] it's not always +[3056.88 --> 3057.48] just about +[3057.48 --> 3057.88] gaming +[3057.88 --> 3059.22] Luke the first +[3059.22 --> 3059.66] thing that went +[3059.66 --> 3060.28] through his mind +[3060.28 --> 3062.08] was holy crap +[3062.08 --> 3063.50] thunderbolt port +[3063.50 --> 3065.72] core i7 quad core +[3065.72 --> 3066.50] with hyper threading +[3066.50 --> 3067.08] so nice high +[3067.08 --> 3067.92] performance cpu +[3067.92 --> 3071.34] and 880m graphics +[3071.34 --> 3072.58] card which can be +[3072.58 --> 3073.52] used for cuda +[3073.52 --> 3074.64] acceleration in +[3074.64 --> 3075.22] premiere and he +[3075.22 --> 3076.20] was like mobile +[3076.20 --> 3076.92] workstation +[3076.92 --> 3077.92] yoink +[3077.92 --> 3079.30] it's because normally +[3079.30 --> 3080.58] when we travel we +[3080.58 --> 3081.92] would take a shuttle +[3081.92 --> 3083.46] or um or a +[3083.46 --> 3084.58] silverstone sugo +[3084.58 --> 3085.94] machine that has +[3085.94 --> 3086.96] like a full size +[3086.96 --> 3088.68] desktop cpu in +[3088.68 --> 3089.48] it so actually we +[3089.48 --> 3090.60] use six cores for +[3090.60 --> 3091.22] almost all of our +[3091.22 --> 3091.94] editing machines and +[3091.94 --> 3093.04] normally we take that +[3093.04 --> 3094.18] when we travel but +[3094.18 --> 3094.94] because luke and +[3094.94 --> 3095.74] brandon are traveling +[3095.74 --> 3096.62] to pax east on their +[3096.62 --> 3097.78] own this time they +[3097.78 --> 3099.18] were really excited +[3099.18 --> 3099.98] about the opportunity +[3099.98 --> 3100.98] to take a notebook +[3100.98 --> 3102.98] that is fully like +[3102.98 --> 3104.10] high quality video +[3104.10 --> 3105.22] editing capable so +[3105.22 --> 3105.98] brandon doesn't have +[3105.98 --> 3107.00] to lug his ancient +[3107.00 --> 3108.20] heavy thing that's +[3108.20 --> 3109.20] like super super slow +[3109.20 --> 3110.00] and they don't have +[3110.00 --> 3111.00] to take a desktop so +[3111.00 --> 3111.82] there you go guys +[3111.82 --> 3113.38] the workstation usage +[3113.38 --> 3114.90] model is another valid +[3114.90 --> 3115.76] one for stuff like +[3115.76 --> 3116.64] this and of course you +[3116.64 --> 3117.44] can play games on the +[3117.44 --> 3118.72] go if you want as +[3118.72 --> 3120.40] well so let's move +[3120.40 --> 3121.68] into our next one +[3121.68 --> 3122.68] this is another +[3122.68 --> 3124.78] I'm trying to talk +[3124.78 --> 3125.62] about our sponsors +[3125.62 --> 3126.26] here right +[3126.26 --> 3127.32] dollar shave club +[3127.32 --> 3129.28] so normally I would +[3129.28 --> 3130.30] have my little bin +[3130.30 --> 3131.64] that has all of the +[3131.64 --> 3132.50] different dollar shave +[3132.50 --> 3133.36] club handles +[3133.36 --> 3134.72] their shave butter +[3134.72 --> 3135.96] as well as the one +[3135.96 --> 3136.74] wipe charlies that's +[3136.74 --> 3137.38] the one thing that +[3137.38 --> 3138.42] these guys left for me +[3138.42 --> 3139.40] and I would be able +[3139.40 --> 3140.44] to hold them up and +[3140.44 --> 3141.58] talk about how +[3141.58 --> 3142.50] dollar shave club +[3142.50 --> 3143.98] is a great way to +[3143.98 --> 3145.66] save money and save +[3145.66 --> 3147.14] time by not dealing +[3147.14 --> 3148.30] with the hassle of +[3148.30 --> 3149.32] going to the store +[3149.32 --> 3150.90] and finding a sales +[3150.90 --> 3152.30] person to you know +[3152.30 --> 3153.28] unlock the cabinet +[3153.28 --> 3154.24] for you and give you +[3154.24 --> 3155.86] new razors and then +[3155.86 --> 3156.64] pay a bunch of money +[3156.64 --> 3157.46] for them and then go +[3157.46 --> 3158.18] home and just +[3158.18 --> 3159.86] waste time waste money +[3159.86 --> 3160.96] so I would be able to +[3160.96 --> 3161.70] talk about how it's +[3161.70 --> 3162.42] great and I'd be able +[3162.42 --> 3163.20] to like hold up the +[3163.20 --> 3164.18] razors and show you +[3164.18 --> 3166.06] but the razors are so +[3166.06 --> 3168.28] good that my staff has +[3168.28 --> 3169.60] absconded with all of +[3169.60 --> 3171.84] them so I did offer +[3171.84 --> 3174.30] Luke to try before +[3174.30 --> 3175.44] blade one so I gave +[3175.44 --> 3177.80] him both the package +[3177.80 --> 3178.64] of cartridges that +[3178.64 --> 3179.26] comes with your +[3179.26 --> 3180.24] monthly subscription +[3180.24 --> 3181.08] to dollar shave club +[3181.08 --> 3182.88] and the handle which +[3182.88 --> 3184.28] he promptly took with +[3184.28 --> 3186.94] him to PAX so and +[3186.94 --> 3187.62] those of you who were +[3187.62 --> 3188.40] saying in the last +[3188.40 --> 3189.20] dollar shave club ad +[3189.20 --> 3190.70] that we did within our +[3190.70 --> 3191.58] video that Luke +[3191.58 --> 3192.70] doesn't shave yes he +[3192.70 --> 3193.48] does people with +[3193.48 --> 3194.60] beards still shave you +[3194.60 --> 3195.46] guys they have to like +[3195.46 --> 3196.28] shape them and clean +[3196.28 --> 3196.82] them up and stuff +[3196.82 --> 3198.02] anyway so Luke took +[3198.02 --> 3198.78] that away with them so +[3198.78 --> 3199.46] I don't have anything to +[3199.46 --> 3200.48] show you there and +[3200.48 --> 3202.48] then Taron the new guy +[3202.48 --> 3204.28] was like oh those look +[3204.28 --> 3205.58] pretty good he's like +[3205.58 --> 3206.48] picking it up he's

use for a +[3218.94 --> 3219.64] month because they +[3219.64 --> 3220.86] provide a handle with +[3220.86 --> 3221.98] your first order and +[3221.98 --> 3223.42] then four cartridges or +[3223.42 --> 3225.08] four blades each month +[3225.08 --> 3225.90] so that you can use a +[3225.90 --> 3226.82] fresh one every week so +[3226.82 --> 3227.34] you're getting a nice +[3227.34 --> 3228.52]

Shave +[3301.30 --> 3302.06] Club since I haven't +[3302.06 --> 3302.86] actually managed to +[3302.86 --> 3303.62] talk about that a whole +[3303.62 --> 3304.82] lot is that they have +[3304.82 --> 3306.28] a warehouse where they +[3306.28 --> 3306.86] ship to you +[3306.86 --> 3307.54] founder of Dollar +[3307.54 --> 3308.20] Shave Club doc +[3308.20 --> 3308.86] sorry about that guys +[3308.86 --> 3310.24] where they ship to you +[3310.24 --> 3312.52] once a month four new +[3312.52 --> 3314.72] razors for your handle +[3314.72 --> 3315.58] that they provide to you +[3315.58 --> 3316.28] on your first +[3316.28 --> 3317.92] subscription they do it +[3317.92 --> 3319.30] at a cost that is lower +[3319.30 --> 3320.62] than buying them from +[3320.62 --> 3322.12] the you know shopping +[3322.12 --> 3323.16] center or wherever else +[3323.16 --> 3324.20] you get them you can +[3324.20 --> 3325.86] see that uh Mike here +[3325.86 --> 3327.86] has put it so well our +[3327.86 --> 3329.02] blades are you know +[3329.02 --> 3330.90] bleeping great he's got +[3330.90 --> 3332.24] a whole actually very +[3332.24 --> 3333.08] funny commercial that +[3333.08 --> 3333.72] you guys should definitely +[3333.72 --> 3334.68] check out just if you +[3334.68 --> 3335.58] search for Dollar Shave +[3335.58 --> 3336.34] Club dot com on +[3336.34 --> 3337.42] YouTube you guys can +[3337.42 --> 3339.36] check that out and uh +[3339.36 --> 3341.90] all of that they do for +[3341.90 --> 3342.68] very very reasonable +[3342.68 --> 3343.74] prices so the four blade +[3343.74 --> 3345.26] one the one that Luke is +[3345.26 --> 3346.46] actually using is only six +[3346.46 --> 3347.46] dollars a month and that's +[3347.46 --> 3348.30] with shipping and handling +[3348.30 --> 3349.88] included in the US and the +[3349.88 --> 3351.26] service is also available +[3351.26 --> 3353.22] in Canada and Australia +[3353.22 --> 3354.52] this is one of the most +[3354.52 --> 3356.70] disjointed integrations I +[3356.70 --> 3357.52] think that I've ever +[3357.52 --> 3358.70] actually done but I really +[3358.70 --> 3359.60] hope you guys get the +[3359.60 --> 3362.12] point save time save money +[3362.12 --> 3363.90] Dollar Shave Club check +[3363.90 --> 3364.98] this out and this is really +[3364.98 --> 3367.14] cool because I think this +[3367.14 --> 3368.56] might be new because when I +[3368.56 --> 3369.54] was first looking at them +[3369.54 --> 3370.78] their Canadian prices I +[3370.78 --> 3372.92] think were higher or like +[3372.92 --> 3373.84] shipping and handling wasn't +[3373.84 --> 3374.94] included but check this out +[3374.94 --> 3376.74] this is the first time that +[3376.74 --> 3377.78] I've seen a company that's +[3377.78 --> 3379.56] US and Canada that has a +[3379.56 --> 3382.12] very competitive pricing on +[3382.12 --> 3383.66] their Canadian service with +[3383.66 --> 3384.74] shipping included that's +[3384.74 --> 3387.36] really cool it's 50 cents more +[3387.36 --> 3388.76] expensive in Canadian +[3388.76 --> 3390.78] dollars for the four blade +[3390.78 --> 3393.46] razor versus in the US now +[3393.46 --> 3395.36] when you factor in that the +[3395.36 --> 3397.80] Canadian dollar is about 10% +[3397.80 --> 3398.82] behind the US dollar I think +[3398.82 --> 3399.88] it's like five to 10% right +[3399.88 --> 3400.66] now I haven't looked at it in a +[3400.66 --> 3402.82] couple weeks they're basically +[3402.82 --> 3403.70] just doing a currency +[3403.70 --> 3405.10] conversion when you factor in +[3405.10 --> 3405.98] that shipping is so much more +[3405.98 --> 3407.50] expensive in Canada that's +[3407.50 --> 3409.22] freaking impressive and like a +[3409.22 --> 3410.46] plus dollar shave club for +[3410.46 --> 3411.50] doing that in fact I think the +[3411.50 --> 3412.70] nine dollar and fifty cents +[3412.70 --> 3415.82] executive one is less than the +[3415.82 --> 3417.34] difference in currency more +[3417.34 --> 3419.10] expensive because it's only 50 +[3419.10 --> 3420.34] cents more expensive as well so +[3420.34 --> 3422.30] kudos to them for that all right +[3422.30 --> 3424.86] so with our sponsor messages out +[3424.86 --> 3426.10] of the way did I ever even +[3426.10 --> 3427.38] actually switch to the dollar +[3427.38 --> 3428.38] shave club

here which is the heart bleed bug this +[3457.14 --> 3460.02] is a big problem I I was actually +[3460.02 --> 3461.88] tempted to just do a dedicated video +[3461.88 --> 3464.34] about this during the week not because +[3464.34 --> 3467.82] I'm a total expert on you know SSL +[3467.82 --> 3470.94] encryption and secure web access I have +[3470.94 --> 3473.10] a basic fundamental understanding of +[3473.10 --> 3475.68] how it works and why it's important to +[3475.68 --> 3477.36] encrypt certain data that's sent over +[3477.36 --> 3478.74] the internet so for example when you +[3478.74 --> 3480.88] interface with a website like linus +[3480.88 --> 3483.54] tech tips calm it's important for us to +[3483.54 --> 3485.88] encrypt your username and password but it +[3485.88 --> 3488.16] is not important for us to encrypt the +[3488.16 --> 3490.56] post that you're about to post publicly +[3490.56 --> 3493.02] so that's that's the that's the +[3493.02 --> 3494.52] fundamental thing that's going on here +[3494.52 --> 3497.70] SSL encryption exists to protect in +[3497.70 --> 3500.40] flight private data as it's being +[3500.40 --> 3501.96] transmitted so things like credit card +[3501.96 --> 3504.42] numbers passwords and the like what the +[3504.42 --> 3507.60] heart bleed bug is is it is a problem +[3507.60 --> 3511.14] with up to an estimated two-thirds of +[3511.14 --> 3514.74] the sites on the internet including some +[3514.74 --> 3517.86] very frequently used very very big sites +[3517.86 --> 3521.22] it is a bug that would allow stealing +[3521.22 --> 3523.38] allow theft of the information that is +[3523.38 --> 3526.26] being transmitted so there's all kinds +[3526.26 --> 3528.96] of different things that use SSL so for +[3528.96 --> 3531.54] example web email instant messaging and +[3531.54 --> 3534.66] some VPN solutions are using SSL in +[3534.66 --> 3536.70] order to secure your data and heart bleed +[3536.70 --> 3540.72] calm was actually able to prove this this +[3540.72 --> 3542.64] problem existed by stealing from +[3542.64 --> 3545.40] themselves the secret keys used for their +[3545.40 --> 3548.58] X 509 certificates usernames passwords +[3548.58 --> 3551.22] instant messages emails and business +[3551.22 --> 3553.70] critical documents and communication the +[3553.70 --> 3555.78] bug has actually existed for around two +[3555.78 --> 3558.02] years and assess a successful attack would +[3558.02 --> 3561.48] leave no trace so if your VPN solution +[3561.48 --> 3563.58] for example is has not done anything about +[3563.58 --> 3565.68] heart bleed you might want to cool it on +[3565.68 --> 3568.08] using it for the time being until they've +[3568.08 --> 3570.48] proven that they have fixed any of the +[3570.48 --> 3572.40] vulnerabilities because that is pretty +[3572.40 --> 3574.86] much the only way to even know that you +[3574.86 --> 3578.16] haven't been compromised is to just not +[3578.16 --> 3581.46] transmit any any secure data over the +[3581.46 --> 3584.28] internet in the meantime which is kind of +[3584.28 --> 3586.50] terrible it's been a while since there's +[3586.50 --> 3590.22] been something that that devastating all +[3590.22 --> 3592.20] right let's move on to our next topic here +[3592.20 --> 3594.00] this was originally posted on linus tech tips +[3594.00 --> 3597.16] calm by Ashley thank you very much and that is +[3597.16 --> 3600.76] that Netflix is now streaming in 4k starting +[3600.76 --> 3602.98] with house of cards this is a bit of a +[3602.98 --> 3605.20] mixed bag for me so here's the article on +[3605.20 --> 3606.70] the verge I'm just gonna go ahead and +[3606.70 --> 3610.34] flip back to back to me here this is my +[3610.34 --> 3612.52] show this is a bit of a mixed bag for me +[3612.52 --> 3616.42] because as much as I appreciate 4k content +[3616.42 --> 3620.44] for some things I appreciate that when we +[3620.44 --> 3623.14] are going to switch to 4k which we are for +[3623.14 --> 3625.72] our videos it is going to enable a higher +[3625.72 --> 3628.06] bitrate playback mode on YouTube that +[3628.06 --> 3630.16] will allow even 1080p viewers to +[3630.16 --> 3632.32] experience better quality I appreciate +[3632.32 --> 3634.90] that I appreciate that as part of the +[3634.90 --> 3637.66] 4k production workflow we have the +[3637.66 --> 3640.84] flexibility to take a 4k frame that's +[3640.84 --> 3643.90] this big and punch in this small on it +[3643.90 --> 3647.62] and get still a 1080p full HD image so we +[3647.62 --> 3650.08] don't have to necessarily switch lenses if +[3650.08 --> 3651.70] we want to get a close-up that's really +[3651.70 --> 3653.08] cool right so we could just take a bigger +[3653.08 --> 3655.48] image and then punch in in order to do +[3655.48 --> 3657.82] really fantastic close-ups using a digital +[3657.82 --> 3660.76] zoom I appreciate that about it but what +[3660.76 --> 3663.82] I don't really much care for is the fact +[3663.82 --> 3665.38] that it's going to have an impact on +[3665.38 --> 3667.84] bandwidth for Netflix streaming users +[3667.84 --> 3669.64] something that is a concern if you have a +[3669.64 --> 3671.26] provider that limits your bandwidth I +[3671.26 --> 3674.80] don't appreciate that it's already a +[3674.80 --> 3677.66] concern for Netflix to be able to stream +[3677.66 --> 3679.60] 1080p with any reasonable level of +[3679.60 --> 3681.16] quality like I don't know if you guys +[3681.16 --> 3683.20] know this should be a topic for an +[3683.20 --> 3684.82] upcoming fast as possible I don't know if +[3684.82 --> 3687.54] you guys know the mechanisms behind it +[3687.54 --> 3691.30] but there's more to the quality of a video +[3691.30 --> 3693.82] stream than just resolution a lot more I +[3693.82 --> 3696.46] mean I could I could give you guys a video +[3696.46 --> 3702.54] stream that's just 1080 by 1920 black +[3702.54 --> 3705.58] pixels that just refresh and that's not +[3705.58 --> 3708.34] that's not quality that's that's just +[3708.34 --> 3710.42] that's so just because something has a +[3710.42 --> 3711.80] resolution doesn't mean it's a quality +[3711.80 --> 3714.44] video feed so bitrate and color depth +[3714.44 --> 3717.02] which is largely affected by the bit +[3717.02 --> 3719.60] rate of the media actually to me has a +[3719.60 --> 3722.58] very very noticeable impact on the +[3722.58 --> 3724.28] viewing experience and when I'm watching +[3724.28 --> 3728.66] videos on Netflix I just yeah it's +[3728.66 --> 3730.40] really ugly sometimes the way that +[3730.40 --> 3733.14] their dynamic throttling will scale back +[3733.14 --> 3734.42] the bit rate so that you get these +[3734.42 --> 3737.12] blocky chunks of of low color depth and +[3737.12 --> 3739.82] that's a 1080p already so if you were to +[3739.82 --> 3741.56] tell me okay Linus I want you to give +[3741.56 --> 3744.68] up some more color depth so that we can +[3744.68 --> 3746.12] throw more resolution at you that you +[3746.12 --> 3747.98] might not even appreciate from so far +[3747.98 --> 3754.22] away from your TV I'd go and maybe sure +[3754.22 --> 3758.60] no probably not so they're saying right +[3758.60 --> 3761.90] now look guys don't expect a mass roll +[3761.90 --> 3763.58] out of this right off the bat so they're +[3763.58 --> 3765.68] realistic about it and okay and on top of +[3765.68 --> 3767.12] all of this is that it's going to use +[3767.12 --> 3768.38] more bandwidth and Netflix is already +[3768.38 --> 3770.06] having trouble dealing with all the +[3770.06 --> 3772.28] all the service providers to get their +[3772.28 --> 3774.92] service you know actually provided to +[3774.92 --> 3777.02] their customers at a reasonable degree +[3777.02 --> 3778.94] of quality and that sentence didn't +[3778.94 --> 3780.06] actually make any sense but I hope you +[3780.06 --> 3781.46] guys get the point so they're saying +[3781.46 --> 3783.50] don't expect a mass rollout and even by +[3783.50 --> 3785.48] the end of the year the 4k selection +[3785.48 --> 3788.48] will be very small but there you go +[3788.48 --> 3791.90] they've got it so if you were to buy an +[3791.90 --> 3795.92] inexpensive 4k TV from Seiki or check +[3795.92 --> 3797.30] this out this is a review that's coming +[3797.30 --> 3797.60] soon +[3797.60 --> 3801.86] ah an inexpensive 4k monitor from the +[3801.86 --> 3804.26] likes of Samsung so yes guys I have +[3804.26 --> 3807.62] gotten myself the UD 590 from Samsung +[3807.62 --> 3810.44] 4k 28 inch TN monitor available for +[3810.44 --> 3815.12] $700 holy balls then you would be able to +[3815.12 --> 3818.06] map a pixel to every pixel and enjoy that +[3818.06 --> 3820.40] content natively but I'm just not +[3820.40 --> 3822.50] necessarily convinced especially from +[3822.50 --> 3824.36] what I've seen of that monitor so far I +[3824.36 --> 3826.52] did have one open at NCIX today that I +[3826.52 --> 3828.26] was able to check out not convinced that +[3828.26 --> 3829.30] it's really worth it +[3829.30 --> 3833.90] all right DirectX 12 will double Xbox one +[3833.90 --> 3835.52] performance so this was originally +[3835.52 --> 3837.32] posted by top war gamer on the Linus +[3837.32 --> 3838.94] Tech Tips forum thank you very much for +[3838.94 --> 3841.28] posting that and the original article is +[3841.28 --> 3844.58] from bgr.com so they have a game +[3844.58 --> 3846.92] changing update that will double Xbox one +[3846.92 --> 3850.76] performance now my problem with this is +[3850.76 --> 3852.68] comes back to the whole Nvidia +[3852.68 --> 3855.50] discussion earlier where it's are you +[3855.50 --> 3857.66] really going to be providing double the +[3857.66 --> 3859.04] performance or is it going to be like +[3859.04 --> 3860.90] double the performance in one game that +[3860.90 --> 3862.58] was already fairly well optimized anyway +[3862.58 --> 3864.50] and it's not really going to make a +[3864.50 --> 3867.08] difference to most people and other +[3867.08 --> 3868.34] than that is it just going to be a +[3868.34 --> 3872.24] marginal incremental improvement and and +[3872.24 --> 3874.64] I don't know yet there's still a lot of +[3874.64 --> 3876.56] room for Microsoft to improve things +[3876.56 --> 3879.08] about the Xbox one but a lot of the +[3879.08 --> 3881.12] benefits of DirectX 12 seem to have to +[3881.12 --> 3882.92] do at least from what Microsoft said +[3882.92 --> 3884.18] maybe they're keeping some of their +[3884.18 --> 3885.86] cards close to their chest but a lot of +[3885.86 --> 3887.30] the benefits seem to have to do with +[3887.30 --> 3889.70] allowing more low-level programming for +[3889.70 --> 3892.58] the GPU from the game makers but that's +[3892.58 --> 3893.90] something that we've already had on +[3893.90 --> 3895.70] consoles for quite some time and it's +[3895.70 --> 3897.74] something that Sony could just as easily +[3897.74 --> 3899.42] enable on their platform whether they're +[3899.42 --> 3904.40] using DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 and from what I've heard like word on the street +[3904.40 --> 3906.26] is that we're not that far away from +[3906.26 --> 3907.88] bare metal on these consoles already +[3907.88 --> 3910.46] anyway so that to me kind of goes okay +[3910.46 --> 3911.90] well if we've unlocked a lot of the +[3911.90 --> 3913.34] potential of the hardware is this just +[3913.34 --> 3916.76] going to be software tomfoolery and and +[3916.76 --> 3918.98] smoke and mirrors in order to try to get +[3918.98 --> 3920.66] games to run at 1080p because that's one +[3920.66 --> 3923.48] of the claims that they're making or is +[3923.48 --> 3926.00] this a total game changer as you say and +[3926.00 --> 3928.46] it remains to be seen this and also +[3928.46 --> 3930.50] remains to be seen oh yeah I remember +[3930.50 --> 3931.72] where I was going with this sorry guys +[3931.72 --> 3933.28] again like my train of thoughts just like +[3933.28 --> 3935.08] run away I haven't slept a lot this week +[3935.08 --> 3938.48] right Microsoft still has a lot of room to +[3938.48 --> 3940.72] improve things whether this update +[3940.72 --> 3942.58] improves anything or not because their +[3942.58 --> 3944.92] whole cloud-based compute thing where +[3944.92 --> 3946.90] they can use that for physics effects or +[3946.90 --> 3949.46] simulation stuff where it's not terribly +[3949.46 --> 3951.94] important that you know the waves of the +[3951.94 --> 3953.92] ocean react with the same split-second +[3953.92 --> 3956.28] precision as an opponent so there's a lot +[3956.28 --> 3957.94] of room for Xbox one to improve its +[3957.94 --> 3959.66] performance I just don't know that this is +[3959.66 --> 3963.26] going to be the difference between 50% +[3963.26 --> 3966.02] performance and 100% performance but it +[3966.02 --> 3967.66] will bring multi-core processing to the +[3967.66 --> 3971.06] Xbox one something that you know I am +[3971.06 --> 3972.70] kind of baffled that it didn't have in the +[3972.70 --> 3974.46] first place but I mean you look at how +[3974.46 --> 3976.00] long Microsoft's been working on direct +[3976.00 --> 3978.62] x12 I guess they're just kind of waiting +[3978.62 --> 3980.30] it out they're gonna wait till it's done +[3980.30 --> 3982.16] they're gonna release it when it's actually +[3982.16 --> 3983.96] ready so because I think they said what +[3983.96 --> 3985.22] they've been working on it for four years +[3985.22 --> 3991.58] now all right Seagate has announced a six +[3991.58 --> 3995.66] terabyte hard drive it spins at 7200 RPM so +[3995.66 --> 3997.94] this is not your this is not your you know +[3997.94 --> 4000.34] grandpa's cheesy high-capacity hard drive +[4000.34 --> 4002.76] that spins at lower RPMs in order to make +[4002.76 --> 4004.60] it reliable enough to deliver that kind of +[4004.60 --> 4007.06] capacity it speeds at 7200 RPM it's +[4007.06 --> 4009.34] available in two three four five and six +[4009.34 --> 4012.10] terabyte capacity points it has 128 megabytes of +[4012.10 --> 4014.86] cache it can feature a 6 gigabyte per second interface +[4014.86 --> 4017.42] and up to a SAS 12 gigabit per second +[4017.42 --> 4022.76] interface it does not rely on being helium +[4022.76 --> 4027.04] filled like Hitachi 6 terabyte drive and +[4027.04 --> 4028.60] Seagate is using what they're calling +[4028.60 --> 4031.34] their eighth generation perpendicular +[4031.34 --> 4033.76] magnetic recording technology and what +[4033.76 --> 4036.94] the register it has figured is five +[4036.94 --> 4042.88] platters to achieve this milestone great I +[4042.88 --> 4045.64] guess I mean it's gonna be really cool for +[4045.64 --> 4047.26] people who want to have lots of storage I +[4047.26 --> 4049.90] think that for quite a while it was +[4049.90 --> 4051.64] stagnant to the point where I kind of +[4051.64 --> 4054.04] went okay what is what is the upgrade path +[4054.04 --> 4057.46] for someone who has a dual bay NAS because +[4057.46 --> 4059.56] we've only gone from like one terabyte to +[4059.56 --> 4061.42] three terabytes in the last little while and +[4061.42 --> 4064.12] like it's gotten to the point now where you +[4064.12 --> 4065.92] don't look at that and go okay that's triple the +[4065.92 --> 4068.02] capacity you look at that and go like oh +[4068.02 --> 4070.18] that's only two terabytes more and I'm +[4070.18 --> 4071.92] accumulating data at such a rate that it's +[4071.92 --> 4074.08] not necessarily enough I mean to me this +[4074.08 --> 4076.66] is exciting because it is a legitimate +[4076.66 --> 4079.00] upgrade for someone who bought sweet spot +[4079.00 --> 4081.52] you know two terabyte drives quite some +[4081.52 --> 4083.22] time ago where now they can triple their +[4083.22 --> 4085.42] capacity and that means adding a full eight +[4085.42 --> 4088.78] more terabytes of storage to their setup but +[4088.78 --> 4090.76] other than that I got him no I guess it's +[4090.76 --> 4093.44] another hard drive it's gonna support you +[4093.44 --> 4098.96] know encryption it's it's oh okay what's +[4098.96 --> 4100.40] cool is they are gonna have one available +[4100.40 --> 4102.86] right off the hop that is rated for 24 7 +[4102.86 --> 4105.56] operation and some ludicrous number of +[4105.56 --> 4106.94] rights per year I think it was something +[4106.94 --> 4110.24] like 500 hold on I don't want to I don't +[4110.24 --> 4111.44] want to quote this wrong because I've made +[4111.44 --> 4114.14] up enough things on the show 550 terabytes +[4114.14 --> 4117.86] per year so that's enterprise class types of +[4117.86 --> 4119.36] workloads right there so that's that's +[4119.36 --> 4121.34] exciting I guess but those drives will +[4121.34 --> 4123.08] continue to be more expensive than most +[4123.08 --> 4125.18] consumers will be willing to spend I +[4125.18 --> 4127.28] guess for me it's just I guess it's a +[4127.28 --> 4129.14] shot in the arm for mechanical storage +[4129.14 --> 4130.40] because especially now that we're +[4130.40 --> 4132.62] getting one terabyte SSDs in that +[4132.62 --> 4137.10] dangerous $500 price range it's starting +[4137.10 --> 4139.34] to look pretty tough to justify a hard +[4139.34 --> 4141.02] drive as your boot drive if you're +[4141.02 --> 4143.60] someone who's you know buying a +[4143.60 --> 4145.70] reasonably high-performance computer now +[4145.70 --> 4147.68] our next topic this was originally posted +[4147.68 --> 4149.36] on the forum by QWERTY warrior thank you +[4149.36 --> 4150.92] very much in the original article is from +[4150.92 --> 4155.42] next power up beta is project aura some +[4155.42 --> 4160.10] more details emerge project aura has +[4160.10 --> 4164.18] received a module developer kit 1.0 +[4164.18 --> 4166.94] release that has outed some of the +[4166.94 --> 4168.38] guidelines so it does a couple of things +[4168.38 --> 4171.56] here is it shows off what we can expect a +[4171.56 --> 4174.16] project aura smartphone to look like so +[4174.16 --> 4175.76] we've got a side view where they show what +[4175.76 --> 4178.10] the screen and in this case looks like +[4178.10 --> 4180.50] speaker and front camera module look +[4180.50 --> 4182.60] like and how it will be sandwiched +[4182.60 --> 4185.24] sandwiched with the rear modules which +[4185.24 --> 4188.78] can be sizes like this so 1 by 2 2 by 2 or +[4188.78 --> 4190.94] 1 by 1 which will contain things like +[4190.94 --> 4193.94] processors batteries and all kinds of +[4193.94 --> 4196.38] cool stuff like that and more importantly +[4196.38 --> 4202.00] than anything else this MDK 1.0 news +[4202.00 --> 4206.14] reveals that an aura phone if you have a +[4206.14 --> 4207.88] couple of batteries on it will actually +[4207.88 --> 4210.76] be capable of staying powered on not +[4210.76 --> 4212.52] only while you swap a battery like right +[4212.52 --> 4214.76] now that's the phone feature to have and +[4214.76 --> 4217.04] that's like why Samsung keeps building +[4217.04 --> 4219.94] plastic phones is a user replaceable +[4219.94 --> 4221.62] battery so that if you run out you could +[4221.62 --> 4223.88] switch it out well project aura phones I +[4223.88 --> 4225.64] should probably stop calling it project +[4225.64 --> 4228.34] aura so while an aura phone will allow you to +[4228.34 --> 4232.60] hot swap a battery so you will actually +[4232.60 --> 4235.12] be able to leave the phone on while you +[4235.12 --> 4236.80] replace your battery with something else +[4236.80 --> 4238.84] or or like if you got like a couple +[4238.84 --> 4240.22] batteries on you just like yeah I'll pop +[4240.22 --> 4242.20] this one off and put a replacement on +[4242.20 --> 4243.28] there run off this one in the meantime +[4243.28 --> 4245.86] that is really really cool there are +[4245.86 --> 4247.18] some more guidelines so they're saying +[4247.18 --> 4248.80] that the module should have a smooth +[4248.80 --> 4251.10] flat pebble form and they are saying +[4251.10 --> 4252.46] that we can expect to see three different +[4252.46 --> 4255.46] form factors mini medium and large which +[4255.46 --> 4256.72] will presumably be some kind of a +[4256.72 --> 4260.02] phablet and is coming later after mini +[4260.02 --> 4264.52] and medium size our next topic and this +[4264.52 --> 4265.98] will actually be our last topic this has +[4265.98 --> 4267.82] been a fairly concise show I've gotten +[4267.82 --> 4269.32] through everything that I really had +[4269.32 --> 4271.54] planned fairly quickly here this was +[4271.54 --> 4273.64] posted by Alex goes high on the forum +[4273.64 --> 4275.32] the original articles from the verge and +[4275.32 --> 4278.80] Google will for one day let anyone in +[4278.80 --> 4282.16] the US buy glass it will come with a free +[4282.16 --> 4284.98] shade in addition to the Google glass +[4284.98 --> 4288.28] glass itself and it will be available for +[4288.28 --> 4292.78] we are look Google is about to make okay I +[4292.78 --> 4295.54] don't see any confirmation here includes +[4295.54 --> 4297.74] of the Explorer program expansion on April 15th +[4297.74 --> 4300.36] yeah there we go so it will include a free +[4300.36 --> 4302.78] frame or shade with the purchase and it +[4302.78 --> 4304.86] will cost fifteen hundred dollars just +[4304.86 --> 4306.68] like it has for everyone who's joined the +[4306.68 --> 4308.82] Explorer program now I actually bought a +[4308.82 --> 4312.32] Google glass not that long ago and so if +[4312.32 --> 4314.28] there's anyone in Canada or outside of the +[4314.28 --> 4316.88] US who wants to buy mine off me because +[4316.88 --> 4318.82] quite frankly I didn't end up using it +[4318.82 --> 4321.02] pretty much at all it's extremely +[4321.02 --> 4322.88] uncomfortable for me I'll be willing to +[4322.88 --> 4325.34] sell mine for 1500 and I'll throw in I +[4325.34 --> 4328.10] have I have a clear lens and I have a +[4328.10 --> 4331.46] shaded lens and it's in basically pristine +[4331.46 --> 4333.02] condition I've hardly touched the thing so +[4333.02 --> 4336.02] there you go Google I'm one-upping you by +[4336.02 --> 4338.52] allowing someone anywhere in the world on +[4338.52 --> 4341.82] on the 11th not the 15th to pay $1,500 +[4341.82 --> 4344.76] for a Google glass instead I'm just trying +[4344.76 --> 4346.62] to recoup my my money on it because I +[4346.62 --> 4348.12] just found it too uncomfortable to use a +[4348.12 --> 4350.04] problem that a lot of people don't have +[4350.04 --> 4352.98] but for me is a big issue is the way that +[4352.98 --> 4355.68] it sits on your ears because my ears are +[4355.68 --> 4357.66] not level on my head so when I hold my +[4357.66 --> 4360.06] head up right my ears are wonky it's hard +[4360.06 --> 4361.68] to tell unless I'm wearing glasses but all +[4361.68 --> 4363.60] glasses sit on me like this and what +[4363.60 --> 4365.56] happens with Google glass is that that +[4365.56 --> 4368.16] puts the display way outside of where I can +[4368.16 --> 4370.32] actually read the thing so I just I was +[4370.32 --> 4372.48] gonna do a review on it but I was just +[4372.48 --> 4373.98] like you know what screw it this is so +[4373.98 --> 4376.32] uncomfortable it hurts after like half an +[4376.32 --> 4378.30] hour I'm not finding it useful because I +[4378.30 --> 4380.64] can't even see the thing so forget it and +[4380.64 --> 4382.90] I intended to flip it like ages ago and +[4382.90 --> 4384.24] then I never got around to it so this is +[4384.24 --> 4386.34] as good an opportunity as any so I'll be +[4386.34 --> 4388.92] doing that on the garage sale after WAN +[4388.92 --> 4393.00] show here and I think wow I think that +[4393.00 --> 4395.58] might be pretty much it I planned to have +[4395.58 --> 4399.66] Luke join me to call into the show for you +[4399.66 --> 4403.14] know PAX East first impressions or +[4403.14 --> 4406.82] something like that but I haven't +[4406.82 --> 4410.30] put it okay +[4410.30 --> 4414.12] do do do do do do do do do please just be +[4414.12 --> 4417.58] favoring oh okay so there's that no no I +[4417.58 --> 4419.34] don't have a reply from Luke so it looks +[4419.34 --> 4421.52] like he won't be joining us thank you guys +[4421.52 --> 4424.76] very much for joining me on the show +[4424.76 --> 4426.74] people are asking for a pebble steel +[4426.74 --> 4428.84] review and twitch chat yes that's coming +[4428.84 --> 4431.96] I ordered one still not here so that's +[4431.96 --> 4433.34] gonna be part of my review that's for +[4433.34 --> 4436.74] sure and or are they just asking for a +[4436.74 --> 4438.80] pebble review I've done a pebble review +[4438.80 --> 4441.08] my couple review has like 200,000 views +[4441.08 --> 4445.46] you guys someone's like call Luke I won't +[4445.46 --> 4447.32] be calling Luke he's roaming right now so +[4447.32 --> 4449.66] that would be a that would be a big that'd be a +[4449.66 --> 4451.70] big problem thank you very much guys for +[4451.70 --> 4455.06] tuning in all 4100 of you I am always +[4455.06 --> 4458.16] just so overwhelmed that so many of you +[4458.16 --> 4460.10] give up your Friday afternoon or Friday +[4460.10 --> 4462.60] evening to spend it with me and hear +[4462.60 --> 4465.14] about the latest technology stay tuned +[4465.14 --> 4467.60] for all the PAX East content that's +[4467.60 --> 4469.52] coming this weekend so that is brought +[4469.52 --> 4472.94] to you by Intel and Corsair and a huge +[4472.94 --> 4474.98] thanks to Luke and Brandon for giving up +[4474.98 --> 4477.78] their sleep and their weekend and in +[4477.78 --> 4479.88] Luke's case his health he's actually +[4479.88 --> 4481.92] sick and he's still doing the trip so +[4481.92 --> 4484.56] like rock on brother huge thanks to them +[4484.56 --> 4486.00] for bringing us a bunch of cool content +[4486.00 --> 4488.58] from the show and I will see you guys +[4488.58 --> 4491.10] next week on the WAN show same bat time +[4491.10 --> 4495.18] same bat channel +[4495.18 --> 4497.44] god +[4497.44 --> 4501.20] of +[4503.34 --> 4504.80] is +[4504.80 --> 4504.92] you
