[1917.00 --> 1919.00] And it's kind of great. |
[1919.00 --> 1921.00] The email reminder thing is fantastic. |
[1921.00 --> 1927.00] Because like my mom will send me an email about some family gathering thing that I like really need to pay attention to. |
[1927.00 --> 1929.00] But I got it at 2 p.m. on a work day. |
[1929.00 --> 1932.00] Or I'll send you an email at 3 in the morning. |
[1932.00 --> 1933.00] Yeah. |
[1933.00 --> 1937.00] And that will get buried by other random crap by the time you actually arrive at work. |
[1937.00 --> 1939.00] So being able to... |
[1939.00 --> 1940.00] Yeah. |
[1940.00 --> 1943.00] And like I might have received it at 3 in the morning and I'll be like, oh this is important. |
[1943.00 --> 1946.00] But starring things in Gmail puts them below your important. |
[1946.00 --> 1948.00] And I just forget about them forever. |
[1948.00 --> 1949.00] Yeah. |
[1949.00 --> 1950.00] Which is not helpful. |
[1950.00 --> 1955.00] So now I can be like, remind me at this specific time or like later today or whatever. |
[1955.00 --> 1959.00] So with say work emails from Linus, I'll be like, remind me at like 10 a.m. or something. |
[1959.00 --> 1962.00] Like in the morning once I'm at work doing stuff. |
[1962.00 --> 1968.00] And with emails from like my mom, I'll be like, remind me at like 7 or 8 when I'm home and doing random stuff. |
[1968.00 --> 1970.00] So I find that really, really helpful. |
[1970.00 --> 1971.00] I like the reminder system. |
[1971.00 --> 1972.00] It's great. |
[1972.00 --> 1974.00] It will remind you on time. |
[1974.00 --> 1977.00] It'll put reminders of anything inside your email inbox. |
[1977.00 --> 1980.00] So when you go to check your emails, you're like, oh, I remember this now. |
[1980.00 --> 1983.00] It's actually a lot more helpful than just setting random timed reminders. |
[1983.00 --> 1988.00] Because you might be able to remind yourself earlier and that'll help you prepare, yadda, yadda, yadda. |
[1988.00 --> 1995.00] And it's very, very easy to get through stuff like Amazon plugging you with emails for toasters. |
[1995.00 --> 1999.00] Because you bought a toaster six months ago and it thinks that you need 40 more. |
[1999.00 --> 2002.00] Because it'll bundle things in sections, say promotions. |
[2002.00 --> 2008.00] You can jump into promotions, read all the titles and it'll give you a little bit of a blurb of the email as well. |
[2008.00 --> 2010.00] Which should be able to explain what it's all about. |
[2010.00 --> 2019.00] So I'll see like Amazon, like any Steam stuff, Uplay, all that kind of stuff all dumped in one spot with different sales and whatnot. |
[2019.00 --> 2022.00] And I'll scroll through it all and be like, wow, I don't want to spend money. |
[2022.00 --> 2024.00] Checkbox, they're all gone. |
[2024.00 --> 2028.00] It's very easy to really, really quickly get through those types of emails, which is really helpful. |
[2028.00 --> 2029.00] All right. |
[2029.00 --> 2032.00] So let's go ahead and move on to our next actual topic. |
[2032.00 --> 2036.00] Because I think we kind of got distracted a couple times there in the last little bit. |
[2036.00 --> 2044.00] HP and, excuse me, HP and Microsoft are dropping the hammer. |
[2044.00 --> 2049.00] They're dropping a bomb, lowering the boom, and they're doing something with a hammer. |
[2049.00 --> 2055.00] Because Chromebooks may not make any sense to me anymore. |
[2055.00 --> 2057.00] This looks really compelling. |
[2057.00 --> 2065.00] So they've launched the new HP Stream lineup that includes the Stream 7, the Stream 8, the Stream 11, and the Stream 13. |
[2065.00 --> 2068.00] So the 7 and the 8 are tablets. |
[2068.00 --> 2071.00] The 7 is a 7-inch Windows tablet at $100. |
[2071.00 --> 2074.00] Now they're not really saying anything about specs. |
[2074.00 --> 2076.00] We do know that it's an Intel-based solution. |
[2076.00 --> 2077.00] Yeah. |
[2077.00 --> 2082.00] So probably some kind of super low power Atom thing or even something else. |
[2082.00 --> 2084.00] Not 100% sure what it is. |
[2084.00 --> 2085.00] Probably Atom. |
[2085.00 --> 2089.00] And then the 8 is an 8-inch Windows tablet at $150. |
[2089.00 --> 2092.00] So this was originally posted on the forum by Top Wargamer. |
[2092.00 --> 2094.00] And the original article here is from The Verge. |
[2094.00 --> 2097.00] And this is where things start to get crazy. |
[2097.00 --> 2104.00] The Stream 8 comes with 200 megs of free LTE data each month with no contract. |
[2104.00 --> 2105.00] So cool. |
[2105.00 --> 2107.00] And right now presumably through T-Mobile. |
[2107.00 --> 2111.00] Now I've been saying for a long time that I think that cloud storage is, |
[2111.00 --> 2118.00] cloud storage is super cool except for when you're on mobile and you're using a lame-o data limit. |
[2118.00 --> 2126.00] Well now, okay, you're not going to be transferring like movies to and from your cloud storage with 200 megs. |
[2126.00 --> 2131.00] But if we're talking about a tablet that's going to be used predominantly for work, |
[2131.00 --> 2136.00] well that's lots for the odd text document and some pictures here and there. |
[2136.00 --> 2143.00] And that sounds fantastic, especially when I throw in this next little bit, which is that both tablets get a year of Office 365, |
[2143.00 --> 2149.00] one terabyte of OneDrive storage, and 60 minutes of Skype calling included in the purchase. |
[2149.00 --> 2151.00] Actually kind of awesome. |
[2151.00 --> 2154.00] That's like, I wonder if you break that value down, what that totals. |
[2154.00 --> 2157.00] I wonder how close that is to the total cost of the actual device. |
[2157.00 --> 2161.00] I think for the 7 that costs more, like sticker price. |
[2161.00 --> 2163.00] So you might as well just buy a 7. |
[2163.00 --> 2165.00] If you're going to use all those things. |
[2165.00 --> 2166.00] If you're going to use those services. |
[2166.00 --> 2167.00] Which I could see. |
[2167.00 --> 2169.00] I pay for an Office 365 account. |
[2169.00 --> 2170.00] It's awesome. |
[2170.00 --> 2171.00] I love it. |
[2171.00 --> 2173.00] I just, the way it works now is... |
[2173.00 --> 2178.00] I really like the graph creation and I'm probably going to switch to Office 365 just because they look better. |
[2178.00 --> 2180.00] And whenever I create graphs, they don't look as good anymore. |
[2180.00 --> 2181.00] Yep. |
[2181.00 --> 2183.00] Office 365 is really great. |
[2183.00 --> 2193.00] And I hope that they move Windows to something like that because I think that personal licensing makes a lot more sense than device licensing in the modern world. |
[2193.00 --> 2195.00] Where my device is very interchangeable. |
[2195.00 --> 2202.00] I mean, I can switch over to a new phone within about, you know, an hour of dinking around and changing desktop wallpapers and ringtones and stuff. |
[2202.00 --> 2204.00] So the device is not the important thing. |
[2204.00 --> 2205.00] The important thing is me. |
[2205.00 --> 2211.00] I'm allowed to use Google Play Music and Office and Windows or whatever else. |
[2211.00 --> 2214.00] And wherever I happen to be, that should be where all of my stuff is. |
[2214.00 --> 2217.00] And this, this is that. |
[2217.00 --> 2219.00] This looks fantastic. |
[2219.00 --> 2222.00] Now, then things get even more interesting. |
[2222.00 --> 2230.00] Because you could kind of look at it and you go, okay, well, Linus, a 7 and 8 inch low spec tablet is not exactly a competitor for a Chromebook. |
[2230.00 --> 2233.00] Because Chromebooks are books. |
[2233.00 --> 2234.00] They're not books. |
[2234.00 --> 2235.00] They're laptops actually. |
[2235.00 --> 2238.00] But the point is not necessarily the 7 and the 8. |
[2238.00 --> 2241.00] The point is the Stream 11 and Stream 13. |
[2241.00 --> 2246.00] So the 11 is an 11.6 inch laptop with an HD display at 200 bucks. |
[2246.00 --> 2252.00] And the 13 is a 13.3 inch laptop that has an option for touch screen, also assumed to be an HD display, priced at 230 bucks. |
[2252.00 --> 2260.00] Both using dual core Celerons with fanless designs, 32 gigs of flash storage, and both come with a free year of Office 365. |
