[2474.50 --> 2474.66] Absolutely. |
[2475.06 --> 2479.14] Have you seen their, like, the revenue stack of Amazon versus all these other retail companies? |
[2479.30 --> 2479.54] No. |
[2479.70 --> 2480.98] It's insane. |
[2481.56 --> 2489.96] I don't know where that picture's from, but, like, it includes so many physical retailers that are, like, really big names that are just a tiny fraction of the revenue that Amazon's pulling. |
[2490.54 --> 2491.96] Like, it's absolutely wild. |
[2491.98 --> 2492.04] It's madness. |
[2492.82 --> 2494.96] Yeah, I don't think there's an insight for them either. |
[2494.96 --> 2499.40] I think there's plenty of room for them, especially because they've already gone global. |
[2499.62 --> 2504.06] They've got, they're opening up India, and they are sophisticated. |
[2505.10 --> 2507.34] So, yeah, Amazon. |
[2507.54 --> 2517.44] I wanted to put, like, a quarter of my net worth in Amazon, like, five years ago, which, like, it wasn't, you know, like, a huge amount of money or anything, but it was, like, a big bet for me. |
[2517.64 --> 2518.06] Well, yeah. |
[2518.06 --> 2521.94] That was around the time that, instead, we founded Linus Media Group. |
[2523.10 --> 2524.52] So, you know what? |
[2524.58 --> 2526.76] Linus Media Group has been, worked out great. |
[2527.18 --> 2529.74] But Amazon also wouldn't have been a bad bet. |
[2531.74 --> 2533.18] So, yeah, I... |
[2533.18 --> 2535.18] I tried to get, I sent a... |
[2535.18 --> 2535.34] Yeah. |
[2535.68 --> 2536.48] Was it a letter? |
[2537.12 --> 2537.42] I don't know. |
[2537.42 --> 2538.48] This was a long time ago. |
[2538.92 --> 2540.04] Pre-Halo 1. |
[2540.56 --> 2540.80] Yeah. |
[2540.80 --> 2546.88] I tried to, the only person I knew that had any form of money was my grandpa. |
[2546.88 --> 2552.32] So, I, like, wrote a thing and gave it to my grandpa, trying to get my grandpa to invest in Bungie. |
[2553.32 --> 2554.42] Pre-Halo 1. |
[2555.52 --> 2559.54] Before the game was out, I was like, this is gonna be insane. |
[2559.94 --> 2560.76] And I'm a kid. |
[2561.00 --> 2561.90] I have no money. |
[2562.20 --> 2563.06] I can't do it. |
[2563.20 --> 2565.36] But I'm like, someone needs to do this. |
[2565.82 --> 2567.26] And, uh, that was a no. |
[2568.54 --> 2571.14] So, there was no Bungie investment at that time. |
[2571.36 --> 2572.46] I don't even know if they were a... |
[2572.46 --> 2573.70] I didn't know anything back then. |
[2573.74 --> 2575.30] I don't know if they were a publicly tradable company. |
[2575.30 --> 2577.76] Like, I have no clue if that was even possible. |
[2578.18 --> 2581.58] I was just like, I think my grandpa was just like, okay. |
[2582.58 --> 2583.32] Okay, my boy. |
[2585.08 --> 2586.84] Do we have to talk about this? |
[2587.68 --> 2589.00] I mean, wait, what? |
[2589.12 --> 2589.46] Which one? |
[2590.00 --> 2590.26] Oh. |
[2590.66 --> 2591.06] Uh. |
[2591.58 --> 2593.64] So, TF2 used to be fun. |
[2594.34 --> 2595.50] TF2 was so much fun. |
[2596.16 --> 2598.98] And then they made it free to play and there were hats everywhere. |
[2598.98 --> 2602.10] That was legitimately when I stopped playing. |
[2602.82 --> 2605.22] TF2 used to actually be really fun. |
[2605.30 --> 2610.20] The problem with free to play is that there's no real... |
[2610.20 --> 2615.20] There's no real venom in the vac ban fangs. |
[2615.92 --> 2616.14] Yeah. |
[2616.46 --> 2619.26] Because you can just use... |
[2619.26 --> 2620.58] Do they still call them smurf accounts? |
[2621.46 --> 2621.94] Yeah. |
[2621.94 --> 2622.42] Okay. |
[2622.58 --> 2626.76] So, you can just use smurf accounts and you can create as many accounts as you want. |
[2627.20 --> 2628.82] And the ban just means nothing. |
[2629.14 --> 2631.04] IP is so easy to get around these days. |
[2631.50 --> 2632.48] Very easy. |
[2632.94 --> 2634.54] Get a PIA subscription. |
[2634.90 --> 2635.82] Support the channel. |
[2636.66 --> 2638.58] I don't want to be like that. |
[2639.08 --> 2645.32] But it's kind of a different community in games where it's people who can afford to pay 20 bucks. |
[2646.08 --> 2648.58] So, one thing that I'm going to throw in here is Prime status. |
[2649.22 --> 2650.70] So, you were asking about this early on. |
[2650.98 --> 2655.96] If you bought Counter-Strike before it went free to play, you have Prime status. |
[2656.24 --> 2660.46] And if you pay the equivalent of buying the game, you can buy Prime status. |
[2660.64 --> 2660.92] Forever? |
[2661.26 --> 2661.66] Forever. |
[2662.30 --> 2663.58] It's a one-time purchase. |
[2664.58 --> 2669.38] And you can filter matches so that you only play against Prime-enabled people. |
[2670.90 --> 2671.34] Oh. |
[2673.28 --> 2673.90] Oh, okay. |
[2673.90 --> 2674.22] Okay. |
[2674.22 --> 2675.44] So, like, my account... |
[2675.44 --> 2676.40] Okay, I actually didn't know that. |
[2676.48 --> 2678.60] ...only plays against Prime-enabled accounts. |
[2679.64 --> 2681.86] So, Prime status matches you with Prime status players. |
[2681.86 --> 2686.76] And if I remember correctly, for Prime, you have to put your phone number in. |
[2687.58 --> 2690.02] So, like, if your Prime account gets banned, your phone number gets banned. |
[2690.24 --> 2690.46] Okay. |
[2690.48 --> 2691.66] And, like, there's some other... |
[2691.66 --> 2694.82] I think you have to play a minimum amount before you can actually matchmake at that, |
[2694.88 --> 2696.22] even if you buy a Prime account. |
[2696.52 --> 2697.02] Like, there's... |
[2697.02 --> 2698.06] I don't remember all of it. |
[2698.10 --> 2698.46] I'm sorry. |
[2698.58 --> 2700.92] But there is additional requirements as well. |
[2700.92 --> 2701.66] Like, yeah. |
[2701.80 --> 2703.30] Prime matchmaking is pretty cool. |
[2703.30 --> 2706.72] There is still plenty of hackers on Prime matchmaking. |
[2707.12 --> 2708.46] Wingman, before they... |
[2708.46 --> 2711.10] Most people in the Counter-Strike community don't even know what Wingman is. |
[2711.22 --> 2715.84] But Wingman, before they enabled replays, and before they enabled... |
[2716.40 --> 2719.18] What is it called? |
[2720.12 --> 2722.84] The, like, was this person cheating... |
[2722.84 --> 2724.64] Watcher thing. |
