[1636.04 --> 1643.04] I'll give you that. But you've got to start somewhere, and at least this gives us an opportunity to move towards that in the future. |
[1643.04 --> 1651.04] I mean, especially trying to run, like, games at 4K on, you know, nothing against the Xbox One X. |
[1651.04 --> 1663.04] Great console, got a really positive review here, but trying to run games at 4K on anything is demanding right now, and trying to run them on the Xbox One X is, well, particularly demanding. |
[1663.04 --> 1670.04] So this, this has the potential to be a real game-changer in terms of animations movements on consoles. |
[1670.04 --> 1689.04] That actually leads kind of nicely into another topic we have here, which is that the NVIDIA G-SYNC 4K 144Hz monitors that you may have seen at CES last year in 2017, but which were subsequently delayed, are supposed to, finally, being, being released in April. |
[1689.04 --> 1699.04] But the question, why I think there was a good segue there is, like, what the heck, what card are you going to use to run something in 4K at 144Hz? |
[1699.04 --> 1704.04] Right now, the only, oh, at 144Hz? Oh, nothing. |
[1704.04 --> 1708.04] Like, you're not going to get anything, frame rate, that high to use that. |
[1708.04 --> 1712.04] It's kind of a funny product, because it's like, it's kind of like the product for no one. |
[1712.04 --> 1724.04] So, it's high frame rate, or high refresh rate for, like, eSports titles, but then no one playing League of Legends is actually running at 4K. |
[1724.04 --> 1736.04] Like, you just, you just wouldn't do that. Why would you? Like, I would rather, if I was a pro gamer, if I was a pro gamer, I'm not. |
[1736.04 --> 1749.04] If I was, I would rather have 240Hz at 1080p. And, from my understanding, a lot of pros don't actually prefer these gigantic large format displays, |
[1749.04 --> 1754.04] because it actually makes it so that they can't see everything that they need to see at once. |
[1754.04 --> 1763.04] It seems to me like it's just the first product that has this suite of features that they're all going to have eventually. They're just first. |
[1763.04 --> 1767.04] Yeah, and then, sort of the flip side of that is if you're more into, like, the sightseeing games... |
[1767.04 --> 1769.04] You don't need the refresh rate. |
[1769.04 --> 1775.04] You don't need that refresh rate, because you're not going to be running those kinds of games at more than, like, 60 frames per second. |
[1775.04 --> 1776.04] No. |
[1776.04 --> 1788.04] With that said, though, we don't know how the upcoming GPUs, whether it be they Ampere or Volta or whatever NVIDIA ends up calling their GTX 2000 series, I guess? |
[1788.04 --> 1792.04] Whatever they end up calling them, we don't know how powerful they're going to be. |
[1792.04 --> 1795.04] So, that might be... |
[1795.04 --> 1799.04] Even the maple buffalo bacon's got a little bit of spice, and it kind of went down my windpipe there. |
[1799.04 --> 1803.04] I'm good. I'm okay. I'm not going to die on land, Joe. |
[1803.04 --> 1809.04] I don't know if you know anything about why these monitors were delayed, but could it have been to do with the HDMI 2.1 spec? |
[1809.04 --> 1812.04] Like, is this thing going to use two cables, or what? |
[1812.04 --> 1813.04] No. These are DisplayPort. |
[1813.04 --> 1824.04] So, as far as I know, and this is just based on rumors that I read on the internet, as far as I know, it has to do with delays to NVIDIA's latest G-Sync module. |
[1824.04 --> 1833.04] Okay. You know what? I think a giveaway was 144 Hz. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think even HDMI 2.1 is maxed out at 120. |
[1833.04 --> 1835.04] That might be right. |
[1835.04 --> 1836.04] Fact check that. |
[1836.04 --> 1841.04] I'm still alive. I'm still alive! Everyone's like, rip LTT in the chat! No, I'm still alive! |
[1841.04 --> 1856.04] I'm okay! Oh, man. All right. In the meantime, why don't we go on to your big topic here. |
[1856.04 --> 1857.04] Well... |
[1857.04 --> 1865.04] So, this happened. This was posted by Delicious on the forum. The original article here is from RT.com. |
[1865.04 --> 1866.04] Unfortunately. |
[1866.04 --> 1878.04] The first pedestrian death has been, not just, like, has not just happened, but has been recorded from a self-driving car. |
[1878.04 --> 1882.04] Well, naturally, the thing is partially driving because of the cameras. |
[1882.04 --> 1884.04] Dun, dun, dun! |
[1884.04 --> 1893.04] This is really sad. So, 49-year-old Elaine Herzberg was struck by a self-driving Uber last Sunday night at 10 p.m. It was dark out. |
[1893.04 --> 1900.04] She was crossing the street with her bike in Tempe, Arizona. Naturally, a lot of these self-driving car testing projects are in Arizona. |
[1900.04 --> 1906.04] They made some attractive terms to attract companies, and they have pretty nice weather. It's kind of easier. |
[1906.04 --> 1916.04] The car was going 40 miles per hour, which is 65 kilometers, and this is an SUV. It's a Volvo XC90 SUV. |
[1916.04 --> 1922.04] So, there was a backup safety net kind of driver, a human driver, in the vehicle. |
[1922.04 --> 1929.04] And when the story broke, we didn't have the footage of what the camera saw, the dash cam footage, as it were. |
[1929.04 --> 1935.04] So, we didn't know, why didn't the backup driver react? Why didn't the human driver hit the brakes? |
[1935.04 --> 1938.04] How was it possible that this woman was struck? |
[1938.04 --> 1945.04] The original details were just, like, irrelevant things like it was dark out and she wasn't at a crosswalk. |
[1945.04 --> 1949.04] Neither of those had any impact on whether or not the car should stop. |
[1949.04 --> 1963.04] So, Velodyne LiDAR said it won't be advising its customers to halt tests in the wake of this death because they don't believe the accident was due to the LiDAR, which often works even better at night due to less interference. |
[1963.04 --> 1967.04] There's less noise. They think it's possible. They don't design the software. Uber does. |
[1967.04 --> 1971.04] So, it's possible that it's how the data was handled in the software end. |
[1971.04 --> 1974.04] It's still unknown why the car didn't stop. |
[1974.04 --> 1979.04] When the dash cam footage was released, it became clear that there was... |
[1979.04 --> 1985.04] If the dash cam footage looks like what it really looked like that night, there's no way a human could have reacted. |
[1985.04 --> 1988.04] She basically is not there and then there. |
[1988.04 --> 1992.04] Like, she is crossing the street, like, in a shadow or something like that. |
[1992.04 --> 1994.04] And even though the driver... |
[1994.04 --> 1998.04] There's interior car footage and you can see that the driver is looking down and not paying attention. |
[1998.04 --> 2002.04] Even if they were paying attention, there's nothing they could do. |
[2002.04 --> 2010.04] And a lot of the media was focusing on the driver and how this person has, like, a previous criminal record and whether or not Uber's, like, policies, like, should have hired them. |
[2010.04 --> 2011.04] It's completely irrelevant. |
[2011.04 --> 2022.04] What we were wondering now is, like, obviously this is a big setback for the self-driving car community and industry and what's going to happen in California. |
[2022.04 --> 2027.04] California was about to initiate programs like this there. |
[2027.04 --> 2028.04] So, it might take a little longer. |
[2028.04 --> 2033.04] So, Uber has halted tests in San Francisco, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, and Toronto. |
[2033.04 --> 2036.04] Man, like... |
[2036.04 --> 2037.04] So, here's the thing. |
[2037.04 --> 2040.04] On the one hand, you're going to have the... |
[2040.04 --> 2045.04] I forget the terms for them, but you're going to have the pragmatists that are going to go, |
[2045.04 --> 2052.04] well, you know, what's one human life in the grand scheme of how many can be saved in an autonomous future? |
[2052.04 --> 2053.04] But on the other hand... |
[2053.04 --> 2054.04] Mutualitarian. |
[2054.04 --> 2055.04] Thank you. |
[2055.04 --> 2059.04] But on the other hand, if this was, like, my kid... |
[2059.04 --> 2070.04] Like, there's no amount of, like, other people getting to survive in the future does anything to make this any better for me. |
[2070.04 --> 2082.04] And from my perspective, like, I'm reading an article like this, and this is as someone who really wants to see self-driving cars succeed and wants to buy one as soon as humanly possible. |
[2082.04 --> 2086.04] I'm glad they're not allowing testing here in my neighborhood. |
[2086.04 --> 2089.04] You know, as soon as I read this, I go, well, I'm glad this is being... |
[2089.04 --> 2091.04] I'm glad someone else is the guinea pig. |
[2091.04 --> 2094.04] And maybe that's the wrong way to think about it, but... |
[2094.04 --> 2101.04] Well, this is exactly why I said her name and age in this story here, because when I posted this on my Twitter when it first broke, |
[2101.04 --> 2106.04] it was like, I expected a lot more varied comments than I got. |
[2106.04 --> 2110.04] The only comments were like, you know, in the future it'll be good. |
[2110.04 --> 2112.04] But this is like a real person. |
[2116.04 --> 2124.04] So regardless... Needless to say, the tests that occur without a driver present in the car, which are, I believe, legally allowed in Arizona, |
[2124.04 --> 2128.04] but were on the cusp of being allowed in California, are gonna be delayed. |
[2128.04 --> 2134.04] Man, that's rough. |
[2134.04 --> 2138.04] In other news... |
[2138.04 --> 2140.04] What else do we got? |
[2140.04 --> 2148.04] Oh, Congress passes SESTA slash FOSTA, which sounds like a... |
[2148.04 --> 2150.04] kind of like a hip bill. |
[2150.04 --> 2152.04] It's like a FOSTA bill. |
[2152.04 --> 2153.04] You know, it's like pretty FOSTA-y, man. |
[2153.04 --> 2154.04] Yeah, FOSTA. |
[2154.04 --> 2156.04] Actually, we should start using it as like a cuss word. |
[2156.04 --> 2158.04] Yo, that's pretty FOSTA. |
[2158.04 --> 2159.04] It's on. |
[2159.04 --> 2160.04] Okay, I'm down. |
[2160.04 --> 2161.04] Yeah, I'm down. |
[2161.04 --> 2165.04] I think FOSTA should mean good, and Jibo means bad. |
