[2722.74 --> 2728.76] So in a nutshell, we can't really tell you much about it, but unlike last year where we
[2728.76 --> 2732.70] were pretty tepid on the land show about sort of how much fun it would be.
[2732.72 --> 2733.32] It's going to be fun.
[2733.68 --> 2734.26] This year...
[2734.26 --> 2734.70] It's going to be really fun.
[2735.16 --> 2736.46] This is the tagline, okay?
[2737.64 --> 2739.62] We can't tell you much about it, but it'll be fun.
[2739.78 --> 2740.24] Trust us.
[2740.36 --> 2740.50] Yeah.
[2740.72 --> 2742.28] You've got a much bigger venue this time.
[2743.16 --> 2744.44] We're going to be at the Richmond Oval.
[2744.62 --> 2750.06] As someone who's gone to, at a minimum, one tech slash gaming convention every single
[2750.06 --> 2753.08] year for like 14 years or something.
[2753.16 --> 2753.28] Yeah.
[2753.50 --> 2753.70] Yeah.
[2754.92 --> 2759.92] It feels a little bit more like some of the older ones did where there was more stuff to
[2759.92 --> 2760.18] do.
[2760.58 --> 2764.72] If you go to PAX these days, they're still really cool, but they're mostly like a spectator
[2764.72 --> 2768.46] sport kind of situation where you're mostly just like looking at things.
[2768.60 --> 2769.88] There isn't a lot of activity.
[2770.06 --> 2770.90] There's a lot to look at.
[2770.94 --> 2774.42] It takes like two hours to wait through a line to play a game, that kind of stuff.
[2774.62 --> 2777.96] What I really liked about the last LTX and seems like it's going to be a thing at this
[2777.96 --> 2781.30] one, and you even mentioned, like there has to be enough stuff for people to do.
[2781.42 --> 2782.78] You didn't say see, you said do.
[2783.20 --> 2784.98] It's fun because there's so many activities.
[2784.98 --> 2789.14] Like I don't know if we're bringing it back, but last year there was like hard line water
[2789.14 --> 2792.08] tube bending and like all this really cool stuff.
[2792.08 --> 2794.08] I think we're going to have a delid your CPU station.
[2794.24 --> 2796.34] See like that's freaking cool.
[2796.54 --> 2798.60] So we're hoping to partner with a local retailer.
[2798.76 --> 2802.42] So the idea is that you could bring your CPU and we'd have the tools on hand and someone
[2802.42 --> 2802.94] to help you.
[2803.62 --> 2807.76] Or if you don't have one, then we'll have a board and a test bench handy so you can like
[2807.76 --> 2810.56] buy a new one and we'll have hopefully a retail partner.
[2810.56 --> 2815.34] So you can just buy it on the spot, test it, make sure it works because you'll void your
[2815.34 --> 2816.18] warranty instantly.
[2816.44 --> 2816.54] Yeah.
[2816.84 --> 2818.84] And then you could delid it and take it home and use it.
[2819.26 --> 2820.40] That's pretty sick actually.
[2820.54 --> 2820.68] Yeah.
[2820.74 --> 2822.66] So like we've got, we've got ideas.
[2822.76 --> 2822.94] Damn.
[2822.98 --> 2823.52] That's pretty cool.
[2823.54 --> 2824.42] There's some pretty good ideas.
[2824.82 --> 2827.00] We could, this might get expensive.
[2827.48 --> 2828.08] Oh Lordy.
[2828.10 --> 2832.46] But we could have some and people could buy it to use, but we could have like a free geek
[2832.46 --> 2836.38] CPUs for people just to like do it with.
[2836.62 --> 2836.98] Probably.
[2836.98 --> 2837.46] You know what I mean?
[2838.18 --> 2840.10] We've got some really good ideas with free geek.
[2841.04 --> 2846.68] So you've seen the like boxes and boxes, like the pallets of stripped motherboard PCBs,
[2846.72 --> 2846.84] right?
[2846.98 --> 2847.08] Yeah.
[2847.12 --> 2847.70] Do you know about this?
[2848.30 --> 2848.58] No.
[2848.84 --> 2849.08] Okay.
[2849.76 --> 2854.14] So one of the ideas that we pitched to, or at least are going to pitch to free geek at
[2854.14 --> 2857.56] some point is motherboard house of cards.
[2861.76 --> 2866.96] And then over the course of the day, whoever builds the tallest card house out of motherboard
[2866.96 --> 2870.32] piece, stripped motherboard PCBs wins a motherboard.
[2870.48 --> 2870.74] I don't know.
[2870.78 --> 2871.60] Like we'll figure something out.
[2871.60 --> 2871.88] Something cool.
[2872.10 --> 2872.78] But yeah, just like.
[2873.52 --> 2873.92] Cool.
[2874.08 --> 2875.42] So it would be kind of like, you know what?
[2875.50 --> 2879.48] Like science world when there's just like the booth that's just like a bunch of blocks
[2879.48 --> 2880.60] to put together or whatever.
[2880.94 --> 2882.18] Oh, so you just kind of walk up.
[2882.22 --> 2884.22] There's a little sign explaining what to do and you just go for it.
[2884.22 --> 2887.48] And there's just a boxes of motherboard PCBs and you just, you build a house.
[2887.48 --> 2890.40] And then you just call a free geek person over and go like, look how tall it is.
[2890.48 --> 2891.10] And then they write it down.
[2891.10 --> 2891.60] And they measure it.
[2891.74 --> 2891.98] Yeah.
[2892.32 --> 2892.60] Cool.
[2892.68 --> 2892.88] Dope, right?
[2892.98 --> 2893.16] Yeah.
[2893.24 --> 2893.56] That's cool.
[2893.56 --> 2893.94] I like it.
[2894.00 --> 2894.14] Yeah.
[2894.20 --> 2897.98] So that's the, that's the kind of stuff that, that we want to do at it.
[2897.98 --> 2898.12] Cool.
[2898.84 --> 2900.64] Um, what else do we have for topics today?
[2900.76 --> 2905.72] What I really liked last year too was with a lot of those kinds of things, you'd run into
[2905.72 --> 2911.78] random attendees that would become like, like temporary single serving friends for the show
[2911.78 --> 2914.38] because they met doing whatever activity.
[2914.56 --> 2914.76] Yep.
[2914.84 --> 2918.62] Because they ended up being paired up for whatever reason, or they ended up just being next to
[2918.62 --> 2920.04] each other and talking and whatever.
[2920.18 --> 2921.26] I thought that was really cool.
[2921.28 --> 2921.96] That's a good idea.
[2922.14 --> 2922.50] Colton.
[2922.80 --> 2922.98] Yeah.
[2923.02 --> 2923.32] What's up?
[2923.32 --> 2928.34] We should have some activities where people are forced to participate like as a team with
[2928.34 --> 2931.52] other people there so that we like make people mingle.
[2931.58 --> 2931.76] Yeah.
