[1120.16 --> 1121.84] They weren't paid to attend or anything.
[1121.84 --> 1134.58] The most we were able to offer was like, look, LTX is not a super profitable event, and it's still not, but we'd love to pay for your hotel and your flight if you can come up and be part of this for us.
[1135.14 --> 1137.18] And not just for us, for the community.
[1137.88 --> 1139.12] And they decided to do it.
[1139.32 --> 1145.66] And they came up and they were like, yeah, I was surprised at how many people here were here for me.
[1146.02 --> 1149.02] And I was like, that is so cool.
[1149.02 --> 1159.38] So that's where LTX turns a corner and becomes not just about us, but also about other people and other creators that can be there.
[1159.44 --> 1164.56] There was one other one that I was really hoping would be there, but he got pulled aside for a separate thing.
[1164.60 --> 1166.84] Anyway, all three of them have expressed interest.
[1167.02 --> 1175.44] I'm not going to commit anything on their behalf, but all three of them have expressed interest in coming back next year, which is super amazing and cool.
[1175.50 --> 1178.48] Because Vancouver has like nothing for tech events.
[1178.48 --> 1185.72] We've got like SIGGRAPH, which is very like animation industry, like computer design industry.
[1185.72 --> 1187.60] Like it's not, it's not consumer.
[1188.08 --> 1188.52] Yeah.
[1188.62 --> 1190.74] So I'm excited.
[1190.94 --> 1192.60] I'm really looking forward to next year already.
[1193.28 --> 1193.98] Me too.
[1194.10 --> 1197.42] But then the night before, I'm probably going to be like, yeah, everything's a disaster.
[1197.42 --> 1198.36] I told you it will be fine.
[1198.72 --> 1200.22] I told you it will be fine.
[1200.56 --> 1201.38] I know.
[1201.74 --> 1204.10] You know, people are like making so much effort to this.
[1204.10 --> 1209.80] And I know you stress out, but maybe do your car again, like buy a new car and let's do that again.
[1210.94 --> 1212.00] Or you know what?
[1212.36 --> 1214.20] Buy a helicopter or something.
[1214.58 --> 1215.32] I do.
[1215.42 --> 1226.10] I do have to say though, I, I think an event really needs something impactful, something truly memorable, something really different.
[1226.10 --> 1232.28] LTX 2017 had the first, first ever Threadripper running.
[1232.66 --> 1235.28] We had someone game on Threadripper for the first time there.
[1235.56 --> 1236.68] That was really cool.
[1236.92 --> 1237.20] Okay.
[1237.34 --> 1239.58] LTX 2018 had the car.
[1240.46 --> 1240.66] Yeah.
[1240.66 --> 1245.14] Nobody who tagged that car is ever going to forget that.
[1245.44 --> 1245.74] Yeah.
[1245.82 --> 1250.36] So even though my car is destroyed, 100% worth it.
[1251.14 --> 1253.12] I would destroy my car for the community.
[1253.58 --> 1255.62] Mind you, my car is only worth a couple hundred dollars.
[1255.90 --> 1258.28] Literally asked how much when I went to buy my minivan.
[1258.64 --> 1259.80] That was a trade-in.
[1260.04 --> 1266.30] They were, they offered like two or $300 or something, which is basically what you can get from like a recycler.
[1266.80 --> 1266.98] Yeah.
[1266.98 --> 1268.20] And I was like, I forget it.
[1268.28 --> 1270.28] I wouldn't take it if you want to get it for free.
[1270.66 --> 1271.18] Really?
[1271.50 --> 1272.46] It runs.
[1272.50 --> 1274.28] First, that's a standard car.
[1275.28 --> 1276.42] Oh, don't, no.
[1276.56 --> 1277.82] Don't hate on standard.
[1278.00 --> 1279.08] Standard is good stuff.
[1279.26 --> 1283.08] No, the windshield is like broken and leaking and all that.
[1283.50 --> 1284.50] Well, it doesn't leak anymore.
[1285.82 --> 1286.12] Really?
[1286.18 --> 1286.84] Did you fix it?
[1286.96 --> 1291.02] My mechanic traced the leak and cocked it up.
[1291.02 --> 1292.20] I still, well, okay.
[1292.30 --> 1292.94] That's dangerous to try.
[1293.10 --> 1293.30] Yeah.
[1293.72 --> 1295.76] I think you're, I think you're being a hater.
[1297.70 --> 1300.64] OchaTak asks, when can we expect more creators on float plane?
[1300.78 --> 1306.90] So Luke's not here today, as you guys may or may not have noticed, because he is working on some float plane stuff that's super important.
[1307.16 --> 1312.84] We've got some payments and reporting stuff that we've really got to get sorted out before we can move forward with some of the bigger plans.
[1312.84 --> 1321.70] And that's why it actually means a lot to us that Kyle and TechDeals are over there and kind of helping us ride out these bugs.
[1321.70 --> 1323.98] Now, they are getting paid.
[1324.46 --> 1327.64] They have people subscribing to them and like things are working.
[1327.86 --> 1332.08] But we're not ready to take on like, you know, a huge creator.
[1332.20 --> 1336.82] Like if PewDiePie came to us tomorrow and was like, I want in on this float plane thing.
[1337.08 --> 1338.88] I would have to turn them away.
[1339.32 --> 1340.06] I'd have to.
[1340.06 --> 1343.40] I'd have no choice just because we're not ready yet.
[1343.52 --> 1347.30] The actual CDN architecture is really good.
[1347.56 --> 1349.28] And that's what we've spent a lot of our time on.
[1349.28 --> 1357.12] So you don't get to see a lot of a lot of the actual engineering that has gone on to make it really strong and sustainable.
[1358.52 --> 1360.86] We could scale it up actually very quickly.
[1361.54 --> 1366.54] But some of the other stuff, the reporting, the payments need some tweaking.
[1366.66 --> 1376.88] We actually had an issue where some people were some people are having payment issues and their support tickets were going to spam and they weren't ending up in our in our management system.
[1376.88 --> 1380.08] And so I had to send us some very apologetic emails.
[1380.28 --> 1382.16] I felt really, really bad about that.
[1382.44 --> 1386.64] But like that's why we don't want a million users overnight.
[1388.78 --> 1389.42] All right.
[1389.82 --> 1392.88] So did we do like a news topic or something, I guess?
[1392.96 --> 1393.50] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1393.70 --> 1395.04] I mean, you know, it's pretty flexible.
[1395.20 --> 1395.86] Like we don't have to.
[1395.92 --> 1396.26] Does it matter?
[1396.90 --> 1398.24] Why don't we just talk about it?
[1398.24 --> 1401.20] Talk about something because I don't really know any of this.
[1401.26 --> 1402.88] You want me to talk about something you can do?
[1403.88 --> 1404.28] Okay.
[1404.28 --> 1404.52] Okay.
[1406.92 --> 1407.28] Okay.
[1408.12 --> 1408.82] Hold on.
[1410.58 --> 1411.68] Oh, that flip phone.
[1411.84 --> 1412.28] Wait, wait, go on.
[1412.34 --> 1412.92] Flip phone?
[1413.22 --> 1413.72] That's not a flip phone.
[1413.72 --> 1414.04] No, no, no.
[1414.12 --> 1414.26] Okay.
[1414.32 --> 1415.22] That's in TechLink.
[1415.26 --> 1415.82] That's in TechLink.
